Wow, very powerful. I'm Ellie Flynn, an investigative journalist,

and this is my journey deep into the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a player boy in my adult. He was like, I'll take you to the top, I'll make you a star. To expose an alleged predator and the rotten industry he works in. It's honestly so much worse than I had anticipated. We're an army in comparison to him.

Here's Nikki. Hello. Here I am. I feel like my voice has become clearer since the canker sores. Like usually there's a hello, but it's like hello. However, more, more, just a little bit more juicy talk. Hi, if you're just joining us for the first time i have canker sores um in my mouth and boy it's i mean i've suffered with like sores in my mouth for like oh not a lot like it's always it's been like it like canker sores as a kid and then i used to chew gum so much that um

i would develop like like abrasions in my mouth because I was just so addicted to gum. I don't chew it anymore. And then I had to have surgery on my tongue to remove that. And then now this. I have never gotten this medicine I got yesterday from my orthodontist. Orthopedic surgeon um called debacterol um if you have ganker sores and you've ever used debacterol holy fuck it is the most painful thing i've ever i mean it's right up there with the biggest the the migraines.

Like that is always my reference for like the worst pain I've ever felt. And one time when I had my, when I had a colposcopy, that's where they like do a biopsy of your uterus, I guess, cervix, something up there. And they're like, it's just going to be a little snip. And I blacked out from the pain. It was just so severe um what's the worst pain you've ever had noah i think a coposcopy because it's it's

like a pressure like this in a location that i didn't ever think i could feel any pressure feel things down there yeah and it and just knowing that you're getting stuff snipped. The visuals alone are just terrifying. Yes. That's so much of pain too. Is when I learned from reading that book called Healing Back Pain. That so much of our pain obviously comes from our brain. That's where it's like processed. And if you, you know, whatever's happening in your back like already hurts but

when you hear words like pinched nerve or slipped disc or bulging disc and you just picture this disc being like crunched or this nerve being pinched it the visual of that description makes you in more pain. Thus, chiropractors and back doctors who want to sell you surgeries, they don't even know they're doing it, but they're selling you pain when they describe things like that. And then it makes their job more justified. No offense to back doctors out there. Some of you do great work. But a lot of these things, it's just so interesting when you kind of unpack what pain is because there's this amazing meditation on the waking up app about dealing with pain and it's

like you're supposed like pain you're supposed to think of as like a separate thing and be like curious about your pain like if you're going through pain right now like think about your pain radiating from that space and think a bit like what is it like why am i feeling it like what and then there's some he even says sam harris says that there are situations where you can be so mindful that pain you can handle any form of pain and sit there like placidly i think that's like you know when those monks self-emoliate and set themselves on fire and they just sit there peacefully that's like almost kind of what they're dealing with but man going through this if you're someone who

suffers chronic pain out there shout out how do you how are you a pleasant person how are you a functioning person i mean i everything falls by the wayside when i have this canker sore pain it's so funny that like oh i can't write today i can't do that call and i feel justified in it i can't fold my i can't do my laundry everything feels insurmountable i can't be in a good mood i can't be nice this person i can't even process emotional pain that is coming from other areas accurately. Like yesterday I got so upset about, I got depressed, honestly, about some relationships in my life that I wasn't even seeing clearly because I was seeing it through a lens of canker sore pain like i was just so sad about the pain in my mouth and feeling alone with it and no one's nurturing me no one's taking care of me i have to do this all myself even though my mom didn't did go and get the debacterol from the doctor which was so nice of her but you know

sometimes i just want someone to like put their arm around me when i'm like sick or just like let me cry about my canker sore pain which it feels ridiculous to cry about a little cankies but man you apply the stebacterol blinding pain shaking tears running down my face and you have to do it yourself because you don't have a loved one um that's what it says on the instructions if you don't have a boyfriend you're on your own bitch just tough it out like you're cutting off your own fucking arm under a boulder um that's truly how it felt i was watching youtube videos of people doing it

and just trying to get any kind of sympathy of like this is not just me right this is like so painful it cauterizes essentially the wound so that it kills the nerves so that it can heal without you crying constantly i mean i'm trying numbing agents i'm trying little patches i think it's getting better i woke up today like kind of move my tongue to be like, huh? Huh? Is it still there? If you go to bed with migraines ever, that's what I wake up. I always get migraines when I'm like falling asleep. And then sleep is the only thing that will like repair it.

And whenever I wake up after a horrible migraine sesh, I open my eyes kind of like, is it gone? Is the dust settled? But this morning I felt that way and I was like, oh my God, it's gone. And then I was like, ah, I like ripped out my mouth guard. And it like struck one of the ulcers. I'm sorry to talk about it so much. I really like, I promise you I'm not a baby when it comes to pain.

And even if I were a baby when it comes to pain, it doesn't matter because I'm feeling pain, right? Like, I think I always like to go, no, no, this, I actually deserve to feel this, you guys, because I have a really high pain threshold. And so like, just trust me because, but even if, you know, I didn't and it hurt, like who cares? It hurts.

And I'm trying everything I can to make it not hurt. I don't want want to be this way i love how i have to justify my own pain to myself no do you get canker sores ever no no canker sores no cold sores have you ever had one no i've never had one oh that's interesting they have like a taste to them i mean most people get canker sores and it is so interesting that there's i have no shame in admitting i have canker sores but any other mouth sore i mean kill me before i mention it on you know youtube wherever we are um i look like shit today too um and that's not me being like please tell me i'm beautiful uh i took a i needed sleep because canker sores are a result of stress lack of sleep and i just haven't been able to sleep that much recently not because i'm like i want to sleep and i can't i just like don't want to sleep

um what are you doing instead of sleeping uh being on my phone, Reddit. And like, you know the best thing to sleep though? Anyone who complains about sleep, including Nikki Glaser, pull up a book. I mean, that's for me. I pull up a book on my phone. Read a book and you will be sleeping within no time. It's always the answer

and it never seems like what I want it to be. This was my last resort. What do you do when you're not sleeping, Noah? Reading. And on my iBook app, I have it in scrolling mode. And I feel like the scrolling makes my eyes roll to the back of my head eventually. Oh, yeah. Because you're like, ugh.

Instead of flipping, I just do the scroll up. I love that you do the iBook on your phone or iPad? On my phone. Yeah. Did you get that from me? Or were you always reading on your phone? Well, I started reading on my phone in the UUP days because I just needed to read a lot, like all the books that we were talking about on the show.

Oh my God, yes. And it was just a great way of reading everywhere. Yes, it is. When people buy me books, I go, please't i just i only read on my phone i don't think a lot of people read on their phone but people gotta understand it's a great place to read people always read on their ipads or whatever it's like why do we need a lot of you read on your phone all the time you read articles you read tweets i like it because i can search for stuff so if we're like referencing something from the book i can just go in the search and find it yes that's what i like about it too

let's sell people on this you can all here's some negatives um you don't get to see your progress as much where you're like oh i'm holding this big piece of fucking chunky book that i already finished you don't get the the cover doesn't come up do you ever find though noah do you use the ibook app yeah okay do you ever find that text sometimes fucks up and like kind of like will all go to the side or like chops in half that might just be me because i read with really big font no you never find that no no I read a smaller font really yeah okay I read like super big font but um sometimes that's a problem but I make my page black and then the writing is like a you know sepia so it's like very soothing to the eyes

and I swear to god I can't get through I'm still reading Cupid's Poison Arrow and um still learning so much I realize I don't have to get a degree if I want to become self-helpy I can read a bunch of books and then I can bring those experts on to my show like to my thing and like just reference them I mean my my act right now the special that I'm preparing, is turning into, it really is getting to I do, which I haven't even finished that book because I just never got around to it. But I'm just telling girls what I've found in that book and how I've used it in my life,

even though I've read a third of it. I'm really excited for you to see it, Noah. I hope I get it right. And I want you to go in and go, this part, not good. Maybe we should change this the only thing i'm i'm you know backing up against is the notion that you know i i think i have like an actually good reason i'm gonna share with women a good reason to not have sex too soon now i know in the book she says don't let them in your mouth your vagina or your a-hole until you get a commitment but I say just not your vagina like that I think has been working for me I make a good argument but I just feel like girls are like but I want to have sex I like it and like I make a pretty good argument for like okay you just don't get to do things because you

like it like it's not a good enough excuse like sometimes things you like don't you know eating all the food in your pantry sometimes it would be a good idea but that's not gonna like make your life better so you don't get to always do it punching people in the face is sometimes seems like the best a thing you'd like to do and you don't do it um you know i could go on and on with stuff all day long Impulsively we're like but I like it Oh okay Then murder that person This is how we get road rage and stuff People don't stop themselves before the

I want to and then but what But what Someone brought up to me was like I had said this week and I go Learn how to respect yourselves by Like having boundaries And my friend Had said said this weekend I go learn how to respect yourselves by like having boundaries and my friend had said I don't think you should make it a thing about women respecting themselves because

some women that want to have sex freely they would argue that's respecting themselves and I'm like well if it's not getting you the results you want every time you sleep with someone just because you want to I'm not saying you don't respect her. I think people have a really hard time admitting that they might have low self-esteem. And I don't have so much of a problem with that. And I have to find a way to communicate to those women who might go, no, I don't. I love myself.

And it's like, it doesn't mean it's bad if you don't like yourself. We all have low self-esteem. We were born women. That's what society makes us feel. So how do I get to them? How do I communicate with women who are really don't want are really because I don't relate to that. I don't relate to I love going. I have low self-esteem.

It's like, okay, that's fine. It almost acknowledges I'm better than I think I am. It's almost like kind of a brag. Do you know what I'm saying, Noah? Yeah. I'm wondering, though, if maybe through the rest of what you're talking about, if finally there could be that point where they are like, OK, wait, that if we're not getting what we want out of relationships, and also to what your friend was saying, if a woman just wants to go out and just hook up and she's not interested in a relationship,

that's a different conversation. Totally different. What you're talking about is for women who are having a hard time finding a partner and just having, you know, an easygoing, functioning relationship. That's the distinction I need to make is, and then I also need to make the distinction of, honey, I know you think that you don't, that you're fine having casual sex, no strings attached. Women want to be able to approach sex the same way men do.

And then you get into the gender, like, well, you know, you get into the thing of like, there are some women that are, that are okay with it. There's a small percentage of women that can have casual sex that have more,

that have a more masculine kind of essence. I don't know. There's places, but those women, and I feel guilty about only speaking towards the heteronormative experience. And I feel guilty about only speaking towards the heteronormative experience. And I promise all my listeners that I will get real gay pretty soon, queer, whatever you want to say. It's going to happen.

I'm not in a relationship yet. This is all not working for me. I'll eventually be there and have lots to comment. Well, did you hear about elvira coming out the woman that plays elvira she's been a lesbian for many many years i'm sorry the whole time she hasn't been a lesbian she's been in a relationship with a woman but she doesn't um identify as a as a lesbian she just fell in love with the woman just it was beautiful you know what great i love that like you don't have to just because you date a woman doesn't mean you're like i'm gay and that's

and not that there's anything wrong with being gay truly like it's just like and then people get hung up on like i'm pansexual and people get go what is that just stop it just be gay or whatever it's like let people be whatever the fuck they want who cares got into a really big debate not really big but i mean i have so much to say i'm gonna bring in um the virtuoso and we'll get into why i'm calling him that right now so uh one second let's bring him in and we'll pick right back up 2025 is bound to be a fascinating year.

I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist. When a group of models from the UK wanted my help,

I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a playboy model. Lingerie, topless. I said, yes, please. Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator. You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour. He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere. It's so much worse and so

much more widespread than I had anticipated. Together, we're going to expose him and the rotten industry he works in. It's not just me. We're an army in comparison to him. Listen to The Bunny Trap on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I started to live a double life when I was a teenager. Responsible and driven, and wild and out of control. My head is pounding. I'm confused. I don't know why I'm in jail.

It's hard to understand what hope is when you're trapped in a cycle of addiction. Addiction took me to the darkest places. I had an AK-47 pointed at my head. But one night, a new door opened, and I made it into the rooms of recovery. The path would have roadblocks and detours, stalls and relapses. But when I was feeling the most lost, I found hope with community and I made my way back. This season, join me on my journey through addiction and recovery. A story told in 12 steps. Listen to Crems as part of the My Kudura Podcast Network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's called throttle therapy.

I called you the virtuoso before I brought you in.

Oh, you told them about the... I haven't told them. I just go... Because I was about to get into some stuff, and I go, you know what? Let's bring Andrew in here for this. Why are you the virtuoso? Because I think, like, I'm just so great at comedy.

Oh, the Myers-Briggs. Well, I found out it's not Myers-Briggs. What is it? It's called 16personalities.com, and it's not Myers-Briggs. I found out it's not Myers-Briggs. What is it? It's called 16personalities.com. And it's not Myers-Briggs, but it's damn close, but it's not officially Myers-Briggs. It's such a fun quiz. I really recommend all the besties go do it and with their other friends and their people that you work with or your partner. You find out a lot about the people.

You probably will end up having more empathy for them when you figure out, oh, this is where they're coming from. This is why they are the way they are. And oh, this is why they act the way they act. It almost like, because you read about this characterization of the person and then you,

for me it was like, oh my God, when I read mine, my breakdown of my personality. Can we say who you are? Yeah. Three, two, one. The cunt.

A commander. The cunt. The commander. Pretty much, if it's a female version, it's the cunt. And if you're a man, you're just the boss. Yeah. You're the commander of the ship. And if you're the woman you're the fucking uh you know we were both very small percentages of uh

people that are that steve jobs was a commander and noah was a mediator which a lot of people in my life are mediators right yeah are you a mediator yeah i was so commander of me to out you she's very mediator on this show i mean it does fit her as soon as i heard i didn't even know that was one of the classifications and when she told told us that, because I go, Noah, please do this. I want to know what you are. And I wanted you to do it with Avi. You guys were both mediators, right? No, he's commander, which makes perfect sense.

Oh, he's commander, that's right, yes. Oh, wow. It's so interesting. He's the only other commander I've met since doling this test out to everyone. There can only be one. I mean, I got to get together and conquer some you know indigenous islands um

i the so this myers-briggs thing it's pretty much those tests that you hear like i'm an enjf or i'm a cunt or whatever and i i don't really know what the letters all mean i retook the test the other day and i got a different one which was interesting because, and then I read all about it and I, I related to it less, although there were pieces of it that, you know, I think I'm a commander slash debater, but what I found and what I wanted to talk about that got me into this was

that with a commander and especially with a debater, I feel closer to people when they engage in like an argument or like, you know, I don't, one of the questions on the test was, do you like to watch people fight? I do not like to watch people fight like in, you know,

with their words, but I do enjoy when some, I feel closer to people and loved when they go head to head with me and try to like make, try to prove me wrong. And I get to like engage and a lot of times commanders don't realize this and i found this out through reading the thing and i actually gave this exact advice i like i'm kind of i was proud of myself because a couple

weeks ago i was dealing with a friend whose friend who she was dealing with has a commander type personality where is always picking like arguments and my friend tends to just shut down and get and just be like okay you're gonna win all the time so i'm just not even gonna say anything i may have mentioned this on the show sorry to repeat myself but i told her i go i relate to this person you're talking about even though i don't want to because she seems awful but i relate to this person and i have to say when people shut down when i'm trying to go why did you do that or like what no it's this way and they just go okay i know that they don't think that i'm right i know that they're just like you're crazy and i'm done with it and it's i feel sad uh like not not seen not. It makes me feel like,

and I have to acknowledge that people don't want to fight with me. So I have to, first of all, work on that kind of confrontation style. If I want people to debate with me, I have to go about it with a different tone. But I also want people in my life to know that when I come at you like that, it's not like it's,

it's, that's a weird fucking way I show love or like want to get closer to people because if i don't like you i generally as a i guess not as a commander but just as a pussy i i don't want to talk i don't want to even engage with you like i there are certain people that i like don't like like and i would be scared to debate them because i just i just don't not because i feel like i'd lose but because I feel like they're idiots and like I will win against an idiot Commander where you feel like you have

the upper hand or that you will win No because my sister stood up to me and I told this before but right around this time my sister I was going on and on about how I believe in God now and what that means to me and my family obviously does not and I came from a family that if you believe in God or any kind of higher power, you're kind of dumb and an idiot and, you know, just one of the cheap sheeple.

And so I was telling them I believe in God. My dad was not present because I just don't even want to bring this up to my dad yet. But it was my sister and my mom we were talking about body acceptance and like liking ourselves and possibly the fact that we as women have low self-esteem and my mom is a person that does not want to admit she has low self-esteem i love myself and i go well then why do you constantly say i look old and you look old and disgusted you know all these things it's like it doesn't match with someone so i told her she was well how am i supposed to do that nick and she's like you're beautiful and young and tall and thin. And of course you like yourself.

And I'm like, but I will get old and look older and gain weight because you need fat because you fall more and your bones are brittle. That's why you get fatter and your metabolism slows down. You need fat when you get older. It will happen to me. And should I just hate myself then, mom? She goes, well well how are you and i said well i believe like god wants whatever god is wants me to look the way i am and when i struggle with how i look i just kind of trust that that's what that's it's not my control it's not up to me so it's not like me deciding to be fat i'm like

god needs me to be fat today like or look this look this way. And that it was my fault. Oh, God likes a fat ass. We know that. Yeah. Jesus was a chubby chaser. Yeah. And so my mom, so my sister goes, so you just, you believe in God. And I'm like, yeah, I just know God. Like, I just know.

There's nothing you could do to, like, convince me otherwise. It's just, it had an epiphany. And I just know. I have to know otherwise fuck and my sister was like the way you talk like sometimes it's just like it's your way or the highway like you just know and that no one else can ever and I go yeah because that's it's me and I I I have to think of course I feel that way like I and i go and it was the first time she's ever stood up to me that way she was like just the way you talk it's like no one else can have an opinion

i go you're right i was like but i want so badly for other people to i mean i've had my mind changed by people going actually nikki now i mean you have before yeah but i just think but i have to change my tone i know tone i guess people don't like to hear. Well, it's your tone. Because it's so vague. Because then you go, oh, you can't handle it. No, I don't feel like it's your tone. When someone talks, this is the thing. When someone like that, we met the owner of that theater the other day.

And he was a little anti-Semitic. He was a little off his rocker. And he's talking to me a lot off his rocker. No, a little anti-semitic he was a little off his rocker and he's talking a lot off his rocker no a lot anti-semitic okay so but me and emil are sitting there i thought he was very on his rocker which is the sad part john rocker that's for two that's for two people oh you know i know john rocker okay wow listen i know baseball controversy but i don't know well john rocker said the n-word which is probably this guy's favorite player. But to my point, this guy's talking about conspiracy theories, and he's talking about them so intently,

and he has a little bit of data backing it up, where the last thing I'm going to go is, no, America wouldn't kill fucking 3,000 people to get... Because you don't want to... Because it was the end of the night. You don't want to engage in that. And you're in. He owned the building.

He owned the building. But I'm saying a lot of these times you might. I own the building. Yes. You own this building. Yes. So people might not. Or your sister for that fact.

Also, it's annoying to have to have. Some people don't want to. They don't sign up for a debate at 3 in the afternoon. Totally. And that's what I needed to hear. But that being said, I think like if you go, you know, I think I, you know, in my opinion, I believe in God as opposed to God is real. That's a two different kinds of sentences.

I agree with you. And that's what I needed to hear. Like, as soon as she said that, I was like, I fucking respect you so much. Like, not that someone has to earn my respect. Like, it just was like I needed someone in my family to stand up to me because I want it. That's what I'm trying to get, to be honest with you, is to be seen and to have someone go, you're this. Like, we see what you're doing, Nikki. You want attention. You're not getting it.

Like, here you go. Let me give it to you. Like, I'm trying to get, that's how I get love. Because in my house, you weren't getting attention unless you were yelling. You know? So I think that, or being right or making a good intellectual point. Like, so I need to, I need to work on that. I need to acknowledge that I seek attention and closeness from people by screaming with them as opposed to going like,

hey, Andrew, can I have a hug? I'm really sad today. I would love that. What would that mean for me to do as opposed to going like, do you know that when you leave that light on, blah, blah, blah, that to me, that's getting you to stay around look me

in the eyes talk to me that gets that gets me the same thing that it honestly doesn't get me it's not getting me what I want which is like intimacy with friends and loved ones and closeness like with this canker sore like I'm I was so jealous of

Brenna last night having like someone with her when she was feeling sick because i was in my room just in so much pain and i'm like god i want and it wasn't about like you because it's not like you would have been in my room with me if i was cankering out but it was just like i saw what how good it is to have someone go to the doctor go to the store for you to get you meds and to like kind of go get you water and like dote on you when you're sick and i was just like god i want that and i feel like i've done so much to like i am constantly pushing that away in my life and like don't want it because i feel like because there's a part of me that also goes oh i'd feel so bad making someone run to the store

when they just want to go to sleep or that you know all those things what what does it feel like to be able to take care of someone that isn't feeling well well last night yeah Brenna was sick and so around 11 at night and uh we didn't have any like cold medicine we just had like yeah stock up yeah and uh also whatever however you want to say but tylenol is apparently better if it was covid than advil so i knew that it's not covid she got tested yeah she got tested she was negative but i was you know i don't even think about it i think like when you love someone and like i've never really felt this where i'm like like if i get sick from her, okay. I don't give a fuck. I'm here with you. I'm riding or dying with you, whatever. And when I go to Walgreens, it's not like I'm like, there's not even like an ounce of me going, God, I want to just go to bed.

Like, I can't believe I have to go to Walgreens. I'm just in autopilot to make her feel better. And that just feels fucking great because it's like, oh, you're thinking completely outside yourself. Yeah. I saw that yesterday with her. Did you notice when she was doing laundry she was like i'm just like it was before she started feeling really sick she was like kind of bubbly walking around the apartment she's like doing laundry she asked me if i she wanted like to throw in any of my stuff she's so sweet and she's like i think i'm just doing a lot of laundry because it's like for the first time it's like free and she was just like like, I want to do it. I'm like, get it, girl.

And then Andrew was like, I love it, too. And she was like, yeah, and I love doing your laundry. And he was like, you said something in response that you go like, yeah, it's awesome for me because I really need it done. And she said something She goes I actually like doing it Because I like to think That it makes you happy And it's making your life better Like you could tell

Her motivation wasn't because God he needs it It was like You get happy When you have clean clothes And someone's taking care Like providing you that So I want to give that

Only to make you happy Not because your clothes Are so gross, babe. What's going on? It was just her doing an act of love. It wasn't about the laundry. And it was so apparent. I wish I would have written down exactly the interaction,

but you had responded in some way that was like, yeah, I need it so bad, like my clothes. Like I haven't done laundry in a while. She goes, no no I'm just doing it because it seems to she goes or the fact that it just seems

to make you happy and I like doing things that make you happy it was like oh fuck it was so sweet it's so nice to see and my mom wrote me

last night too and she's like my mom I think had a little boozy booze last night and she was texting me and she said

what did she say it's I'll do my mom's impression. It was so cute. She goes she's like oh my god. I sent her all these text people telling me because my mom was at the meet and greet on Saturday

night with my dad and so many people were writing to me being like your mom is so beautiful. I have never once asked anyone to say that never solicited that so I shared it with my mom because last night my mom was having a little bit of like anxiety about being on camera and stuff and you know and as we all do everyone especially women of a certain age and she and I sent her all these tweets that i got in dms from people and she's like she's just being sweet she'll say anything and i go will you not disrespect my fans this way i didn't ask her to say that this girl doesn't so what so when she also said she

had fun at my show was that a lie too can you maybe think that and then i realized my mom thinks that when people say she looks beautiful that they're lying because my mom probably does that to people and is lying you know like we don't trust people when we are you know people that are so paranoid about being cheated on are usually cheating it's like well mom you need to be more honest with other people in your life so that when they're honest with you you can if that makes any sense so she goes oh she said the funniest thing she goes tomorrow on camera can you be a better stage daughter and i go what does that mean i would i would love to do that and she goes i just think it's funny instead of me being a stage mom you're a stage daughter and i was like that is funny will you say that on camera but anyway um

she goes and all right love you has andrew been making a lot of noise in the other room oh i hope so jk so i guess she was saying like yeah yeah and i said he's been quiet he and bernard are so happy and cute it's awesome so happy for him and that's i was just like writing it i'm like oh it's just spilling out of me i was just so i'm just so happy for both of you and i i joke a lot about her being young and and old soul and all those things but I genuinely am um like so happy to see you being loved by someone like genuinely and you also doing that back and like just even through the door hearing like the little like giggles and stuff like not through the door but like when I'm walking by you have the cup on the door hearing like the little like giggles and stuff like not through the door

but like when i'm walking by you have the cup on the door yeah yeah like uh when i uh have miked your room secretly when you're pretending to be cleaning the windows on the 12th floor with a mustache on yeah yeah you knew that was me yeah i knew i'm so scared of heights but i just wanted to see you two being cute. Where did you get the rope? Listen, I got a lot of it from my depressive days that I never used. You already had it. What do I do with all those little stools? What was it Norm MacDonald's joke about the shaky stool store next to the rope store?

Oh. The suicide thing? Okay, we got to get to the news, but I'm happy for you, bro. Oh, thanks. Apparently, that's nice. Here we go. You heard it here first. I'm going to jump some

Ambasol in my mouth. Oh. Yes. The shooting relief of Ambasol maximum strength. Who is ever going to buy Ambasol minimum? I'm good.

Yeah. Ambasol. You never hear minimum strength. By the way, there's no. It's like a Seinfeld bit. It is a Seinfeld bit. Is it really? It's about Tylenol, like extra strength.

He's like, and what about the one that's just medium? No one's buying like, I just want well. Extra mild. They just add those words to make you go, ooh, this is barely legal, Amazon. That's what it makes it sound like. We're getting away with, we're giving you stuff that usually you need prescription force. That's hilarious. Don't tell anyone.

A woman is seeking, oh, have all the swells. Oh, yeah. It doesn't feel forced. It's very natural when I go have all the have all the swells um a woman is seeking one million dollar payout from geico after allegedly contracting hpv uh while having sex in a car insured by the company what so the company is her car's insured by geico and she got hpv in her car gear shift of her puss like we've recommended yeah she got it from the uh the the card that you put your insurance card oh wait no no no no wait so her car her car is insured by geico and now she got hpv from having sex in her car i think it was

her boyfriend's car that was insured or Or her partner's car. Sue your boyfriend. Yeah, obviously. But the boyfriend's obviously poor. Can you sue someone for giving you HPV knowingly? Maybe. Deshla Times called for litigious desperation. This is just an insane claim. You know that David...

I watched this documentary about David Geffen on Netflix. If you don't know who David Geffen is, neither did I. I mean, I've always heard his name. There's one scene they show from The School of Rock. Do you remember that movie? Yes. With Jack Black. And all the parents are confronting him for the first time about their kids are obsessed with rock music.

And all these parents are going, why is my son listening to blah, blah, blah? And then Wonder Woman goes, why is my daughter suddenly obsessed with David Geffen? And I remember seeing that movie and going, who's David Geffen? I just assumed he was some bassist for something. He's a music producer. He was an agent, a manager, a producer. He watched this documentary, you guys. My dad recommended it over the weekend.

Why I bring it up right now is because david geffen once sued neil young because he's he had neil young on his one of his record labels and neil young decided to be uh to make an experimental album and just kind of deviate from what we expect from neil young and did i can't even believe what neil young put out for a while i mean you wouldn't recognize him he was he was kind of being like an 80s, like, you would have thought you were watching a Duran Duran video and some of the stuff he was putting out. It was like when Garth Brooks did Chris Gaines.

Kind of like, oh, yeah. And Neil Young is in this documentary talking about like, yeah, I'm an artist. When you're a record label, you're not, you shouldn't be in it to make a profit. You should be in it to put a profit you should be in it to put art out into the world and that's what you were doing and sorry and get geffen because it

bombed so much and he felt so annoyed that he would sign artists and then they would take these like artistic liberties that he got some bad advice and he sued neil young to uh give because he would give these artists extreme advances. He was a great manager, great agent, really believed in his artists, lost a lot of money, would nurture them. Like, he was so cool. But he sued Neil Young for putting out,

for, like, not giving you Neil Young. And he goes, Neil Young's like, I got sued for being an artist. They're still really good friends, but they never kind of recovered from that. But just the ridiculousness of suing these these kind of yeah when you are just like there have been times i think that i'm like could i sue for that like is there a way and you know that woman got hpv and was just like the wheels started turning yeah who can i blame for this of the also

a million dollars it's like i mean it's just it blows my mind that you know so or someone that slip and falls in walmart and their first thought is oh my god hey where's a mop where who why was there no sign spade told me about his mom was walking in a ross dress for less and she there was some piece of equipment that they were like hanging something and it got left out in the shoe aisle and she tripped over it and sliced her leg like open so like just bleeding every with just like muscle tissue was and um and david's like you know this is kind of a place to yeah it was definitely his music was playing his new wave phase so that was playing in the ross yeah did you sue no she she was like that was my fault i'm a

clumsy old lady and david was like for the first time ever it was kind of a fall in a store where it was like they left like a chainsaw out in the fucking like it was that egregious of like an error and his wife his mom was just like no that was i'm just clumsy it was my fault and not that he was encouraging her to do so but it was just interesting that like there are certain people that can go I would never do that it's my fault I'm clumsy and then there are people that you just oh my god it would be the worst thing ever if you know there was a guy at my show on uh Chicago on um Saturday night for a show Noah um and I was about to bring up Andrew and his seat fell out uh from like i don't know what happened but one of the seats were rickety anyway they were great seats you know they

set them up so it's not standing room only and this guy's seat fell and he fell on the ground it was you know truly probably so embarrassing for him thank and i go i even said i was like of anyone whose seat could fall this guy is the best one because he was just go i even said i was like of anyone whose seat could fall this guy is the best one because he was just like a biker he was like a tough looking dude his name was kenny shout out kenny you handled it so fucking well i tried so hard in that moment he's at a law office right now that's why you're saying this i said to kenny i was like please don't sue i was kind of thinking like good i was like let's move on uh because i don't yeah uh want any please don't call 800-888-MORI or whatever yeah yeah it's always like two guys on there like i was just

desperate to make kenny feel better because yeah because that girl fell through the meet and greet too yeah cursing's friend and you handled it you you really did like like handle it so well where like because it's so easy to point and laugh or feel uncomfortable she was a little bit drunk she had drank too much which i've been there first of all been in all these situations you know where something you draw a lot of attention to yourself because you didn't he didn't want the chair to fucking fall or whatever and this girl uh had drank a little too much and she like the backdrop for my meet and greet it seems like it might be against a wall and uh and so she kind of leans back and all of a sudden it's not a wall and then you freak out and then but she just

like perfectly fell on this little stage and then sat down like and the whole but the whole screen falls down everyone can watch it's on a stage seeing you everyone's lined up to meet me and they all she's the first one up and um kirsten told me she was so embarrassed and i just want to shout out to her taylor uh i like loved you so much more in that moment than if that wouldn't have happened and i want to be friends with you and you are so lovely and maybe you had a little too much to drink but like been there and yeah yeah it's just like i just took her and I was like, listen, I have fallen on stage in the same way. It happens. It's funny.

It's a good story. You're OK. And she was just kind of like I was just trying to like, please just know that this is OK. And don't sue me. And then there was this one girl. You hear the girl in line, Brittany in Kansas. Brittany, not not cool. Brittany was a little drunk, too.

And she was like, OK okay you've been up there long enough yeah yeah yeah to this girl that just fell I'm like let me have time with this girl and have her like kind of recover from it reminds me of uh I saw this video and then pretty was nice it's on YouTube or TikTok or whatever and it's Ronaldo the soccer player who has you know 200 billion fans yeah and there's an Asian kid trying to talk to him who speaks Chinese or Japanese or whatever. And he's trying to speak Portuguese. And he's having a tough time.

And everyone starts laughing at the kid, except for Ronaldo. And Ronaldo goes, no, he's doing a good job and made it a point. And everyone in the room, shit. It's that quick of one person doing the right thing where everyone goes, oh, I'm an asshole. And that's what it reminded me of when you helped the girl up and you were like, no, this isn't. We could all point and laugh at her. Obviously, this is.

And it's going to happen to all of us. And I did that for the guy that fell. I go, we're all thinking right now, God, think like that would be what if it were me you know we can point and laugh at him but every one of us here is going if we live long enough is going to have a moment like that so do right now what you would want people to do to you in that moment which is like who the fuck cares it's funny fuck it and the guy couldn't he the guy was so cool i met him after that the meet and greet and he didn't even remember like to have that happen right away at a show the whole time i just didn't want him to be sitting there being like that was so cool. I met him after the meet and greet, and he didn't even remember. To have that happen right away at a show the whole time,

I just didn't want him to be sitting there being like, that was so embarrassing. I wanted him to be able to have fun, and he did. Kenny was awesome. In 2014, a drunk driver had his penis and a testicle amputated after a horrific crash when he lost control of his car, leaving him a broken neck, jaw, hips, nose, pelvis, and brain injury. And today he says he feels like more of a man than before his accident.

Whoa. He's just one ball left. Yeah, just one ball, I guess. He said his penis looks like a stump. I get it, brother. At least you have a car wreck to blame it on. Why does he say that? Why does he feel like more of a man?

He said they had to amputate my well manhood. It's like they chopped a tree down and it's a stump. I want to tell the world about the emotional toll this took and will always take on me. It has forever changed my life in a way that I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. Happily single, he said, I feel like I can open up about it.

I'm not ashamed anymore. Life's hard, but it's made me a lot more confident in myself i realize it's not the most important thing and that doesn't make you who you are love it you know if anyone out there is listening or that might have a penis that they're not thrilled about and think and like to blame and like to think not blame but like think oh women are never gonna love me because of this or, you know. Maybe some women won't. Some really like insecure women themselves because we can only, the way we judge others is the way we judge ourselves. And so, you know, maybe there are some women that won't want to be with you.

But I would definitely be in a relationship with a guy with a stump for a penis and like that survive. There's a lot of TikToks going on. Even if he was born with a stump and didn't have a cool like DUI story, you know? Well, guess what? He's in St. Louis. Oh.

He is? He's sitting next to you. God, I love disabled guys. I hate to say that but when a guy walks up that has has an injury or needs help getting up the stairs, or there's something about a guy in a wheelchair, just any kind of guy. I just feel like they've been through a lot.

It's the same way I feel about men when I meet them, and they have a lot of trauma from their childhood. I'm just attracted to people who have persevered past a lot of stuff. So I, there's a sexiness to it, um, that I can't deny. They can handle the wheelchair. They can handle debating with you,

you know? Exactly. The commander will, the commander will take your wheelchair. You like a guy with a peg leg because you're a pirate. Yeah. Oh, there you go.

Commander, I'm going to get a telescope. I mean, I think, uh, there's, there's these tick tocks now where it's like girls holding, because you're a pirate yeah oh there you go commander i'm gonna get a telescope i mean i think uh there's there's these tiktoks now where it's like girls holding up like seven eight inches uh-uh i don't want that nine to ten inches not for me and then it's you know four to five inches and they're like oh yeah and then like some guy will it to just this short guy going, let's fucking go! He's just so fucking stoked on it. That's cute.

And it is. I mean, it is nice to put that out in the world that some girls don't need a long, long dick man. What about lesbians, y'all? They're very hot women that have been into men before and then suddenly they're dating a woman. Do you think they're just sad the whole time? Hey, let's go to break and then come back and do Why Do I Care and then get into Reddit. 2025 is bound to be a fascinating year. It's going to be filled with

I'm Ellie Flynn, and I'm an investigative journalist. When a group of models from the UK wanted my help, I went on a journey deep into the heart of the adult entertainment industry. I really wanted to be a player boy model. Lingerie, topless. I said, yes, please. Because at the centre of this murky world is an alleged predator.

You know who he is because of his pattern of behaviour. He's just spinning the web for you to get trapped in it. He's everywhere and has been everywhere.

Okay, Chelsea Handler says she has hope, quote unquote, for everyone in this world after falling in love at the age of 46.

Yes, I agree. I think that, yeah, I have, it gave me a lot of hope too because I know she was just like, I'm done. Or like, it might not happen for me. And she also posted the other day or yesterday a picture of herself looking – I mean she's a gorgeous woman but so gorgeous. And she said, maybe it's three days of – Three weeks. Three weeks. Three weeks of no alcohol maybe i'm i'm wondering if this new love she's found has made her reevaluate um

her drinking because she's always been a big advocate of like getting drunk and it's only it's always like kind of made me go like oh god i want to drink because it looks cool and she's so able to thrive and she just looks like someone that like a martini in her hand just makes sense you know what i mean like she just i don't know why it's just something about her it's just like it just goes with her she yeah and then but she's done it that's the thing it's like with drinking i always go you know when people are kind of on the fence about quitting and i know a lot of you are out there and you'll want to zip past this because you just don't want to quit yet and you just you kind of know it's looming and you're like i'm not ready then you don't need to yet but there comes a point where you go man i have this coming up and i'm not gonna be able to drink for this and

all this and i just go you've already had your fun it's over the party's over the parties have to end at some point or a new kind of party can start I guess truth but I think that sometimes I just want I would get depressed when I thought about not drinking anymore and I go how am I gonna do next you know Christmas Eve I like to have I like to get drunk with my family my birthday blah blah st patrick's whatever it is that you go what is that without drinking well it's not something you're gonna die and that you were not gonna be able to have those anymore so like i'm not that you maybe just like that's you're dying that part of your life you're it's over things have to end and so just because your life continues and you're like, I could keep drinking, maybe just go.

It's over. I had my fun. Life isn't over. Just drinking is over. But the thing is, life will be over sometime. So, like, you can't keep doing everything forever. But, like, you can put an end to it and not be sad about it and be like, wow, I had my fun. Like, I had so much fun with drinking.

I'm grateful for all the good times I had that I'll never remember. But it's just like you just don't get to do everything you want to do forever that's the thing that i think people have to realize is like just because you want doesn't mean you get for me though for summary this chelsea handler when when or like not just with but just when someone goes there's hope for everyone it just it comes off a little to me because like it's like okay we get it like but you could be broken up in two months it's like it just it comes off a little to me like a little like oh like even i like it honestly helped me i will really yeah yeah because first of all it was someone that was in her life for a while that she didn't even like the fact that and she's someone who just like she knows the score like she knows who like she's a boss bitch

and it's like i put i don't need love yeah and like for her to be able to reach a place where she is able to find this deep love that she was it's not like she just met this guy on bumble like it was someone that she wouldn't have even thought. That's what I like is that she, not that it was, I'm not trying to be like you and I, Andrew, or something, or like a guy friend of mine. I'm not saying that with it,

but I'm just saying things that I think I have figured out, I might not have figured out, or they might change in a way that I go, oh my God, I never even like, it could be a girlfriend of mine or or it could just be a different type of person that I would have never looked at before that I haven't met yet you know like I just think that so many times I just go you know I don't need anyone I'm fine

because she really the thing is I think she got him at a time where she really did start to like herself and be okay with being alone and i think once you're really okay with yourself and being alone that's when you're able to let someone in and you're not like i need someone and the standing ovation he gets all the time it's hot final thought it's time for reddit dump we're doing a quick episode today just because you know i'm cankering out bitches but i'm feeling good now because I just dumped Ambasol in my mouth. Okay. This is your Reddit dump.

I thought it said canker mode. We should do the canker mode. All right, here we go. Oh, I love this. This is Paul McCartney on Acid. I fucking love this. Noah, forgive me. This is a little bit of a long one to play.

It's Paul McCartney getting interviewed about having admitted to a journalist that he did LSD. While on LSD? No, he's not on LSD. This is what I thought. It says On Acid, so you think he's on it, but it's about him talking about it. About four times. And where did you get it from? Oh, you know, I mean, if I was to say where I got it from,

you know, it's illegal and everything. It's silly to say that. Do you believe that this was a matter which you should have kept private? The thing is, you know, that I was asked a question by a newspaper. And the decision was whether to tell a lie or to tell him the truth, you know. I decided to tell him the truth. But I really didn't want to say anything, you know, because if I'd had my decision, you know, if I'd had it my way, I wouldn't have told anyone, you know, because I'm not trying to spread the word about this. But the man from the newspaper is the man from the mass medium.

I'll keep it a personal thing. If he does too, if he keeps it quiet, but he wanted to spread it, so it's his responsibility for spreading it, not mine. I fucking love this. Hold on. But you're a public figure. But you're a public figure.

You said it in the first place. Yes, but to say it is only to tell the truth. I'm telling the truth. You said it in the point anyway. I was asked whether I had or not. And then from then on, the whole bit about how far it's going to go and how many people it's going to encourage is up to the newspapers and up to you on television. I mean, you're spreading this now at this moment. This is going into all the homes in Britain.

And I'd rather it didn't. You're asking me the question. You want me to be honest. I'll be honest. Yes! Don't you love that? It's not even about LSD. It's about telling the truth. And when journalists ask questions and celebrities tell the truth about their personal lives, or

anyone for that matter, it's the press that's getting the information. It's not them. And he's not a liar so now we're mad at him for not lying to us please please paul lie to us someone made a comment that said that i loved paul mccartney on the media wait oh it said uh uh sorry sorry sorry let me just find this paul isn't it your responsibility as a public figure to shut up and conform and and do you feel guilty now for telling the truth to a reporter that's essentially what Paul, isn't it your responsibility as a public figure to shut up and conform?

And do you feel guilty now for telling the truth to a reporter? That's essentially what the guy was asking. I loved how he spun it. I did. I did. I enjoyed it. I think it is interesting when people go, well, do you think people will take drugs now? Because, well, I mean, every single guy had a mustache because of the Beatles.

So I'm sure, you know. Yeah, I'm sure that it's definitely. And they were like the only band. Yeah, I want to grow a mustache and take acid and lose my penis. Well, I heard that on LSD. Paul McCartney has always said about LSD that his life is before and after LSD. Like that's where it splits. And not the Beatles or not the British Invasion.

LSD. Like it changed everything. And that to me was the mind of a man who's done LSD that's just like. blitz and not the beatles or not the british invasion lsd like it changed everything and that to me was the mind of a man who's done lsd that's just like i'm not gonna lie he's honest he's a vegan he's a good man he's like there's gotta be something too about those times when you know tv was just coming out you know like life there were so many more rules and like like judgment from religion and society so when you took acid back then it opened up your world like we could go to the internet like the internet is a little acidy for a lot of people that want to find things that they never could have seen

but back then you take acid and you're like what the like these are the thoughts i can have because i've been so like ingrained in my head to wear this outfit and comb my hair this way and think these things yeah yeah that's i've gotten to that place of like i'm not gonna lie anymore because i've read sam harris's book and he's done a lot of lsd to get to a place of like lying is not helping the world be honest and so i think paul was able to get to that place from lc but i'm you're right i'm able to get lessons from people who've done it because they're able to talk about it and i'm able to read stuff online and listen to podcasts but you're right they must it must have blown their mind oh my god they like oh a tv could be colored well that was the 70s you know in the 60s like the hippie movement was just people just like going to those places and like taking lcd and then making posters of like what they saw like

everything was just like yeah like you know tapestries and like patchouli and lava lamps like it's all representations of this um i do i do find it interesting though when the when someone goes well i'm just there's a weird relationship with like uh celebrity and media in the sense of like okay you're kind of talking shit about media but without media especially back then yeah you would have no money in your pocket so it's like but he's saying spread the he's not he's not saying media is bad he's saying saying it's up to the... Don't blame me for the fact that I didn't want to tell... I wasn't out there writing songs going, do LSD and beat your wife.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds. That wasn't telling people to do LSD. Now, and that comes back to the Neil Young thing. Like, he is an artist. He doesn't... He needs the media to put out his art his art but it's not he doesn't he wasn't wanting to and a lot of these guys do want to get on their soapbox and stuff but you know kendall jenner poses with a cigarette in a photo and everyone's like you're telling people to the

controversy around it becomes more of a yes than the actual picture yeah highlighting so this one uh was from taylor swift the subreddit Taylor Swift. But this one got around everywhere. This is almost like a sports moment. Clayton Kershaw, did you hear what he said about Taylor Swift? No. Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw said, if you don't like Taylor Swift, you're just lying to yourself. If you're a dude and you think you don't like her,

just get over yourself. Wow. That was a quote. He's a badass, too. But they aired on ESPN. Loved it. He's a great pitcher. He's honestly one too. That they aired on ESPN. Loved it. He's a great pit. He's like honestly one of the best ever.

Really? Yeah. Ever. Yeah, I've heard his name before a lot, and I loved that quote. Okay, here's something interesting. This is from Antinatalism, which is like against being born. I guess it's like a subreddit about, let me just see what that even means. A community for antinatalism,

the philosophical position that assigns a negative value to birth. It's a hangout, this is a hangout for antinatalists, not as a debate forum. Those who assign a positive or ambivalent value to birth are not welcome here.

I don't even know, there was just something that attracted me and I'm anti like having more babies, but this is interesting. Ancestral mathematics. In order order to be born you needed two parents four grandparents eight great eight great grandparents 16 second great great parents 32 third great grandparents 64 fourth great grandparents 128 fifth great grandparents 256 seventh great grandparents or sorry six great

grandparents 512 seventh great grandparents 1044 24 oh eighth you're really good at math 2048 yes how do you know just doubling it oh ninth great grandparents said it says for you to be born today from 12 previous generations you needed a total of 4094 ancestors over the last 400 years i mean isn't that wild that your existence depended on you being born out of all the sperms is one in like a billion like it's it's insane that we're sitting right here it really is and we forget that all the time. I love that. I watched a movie. It's on YouTube. It's called Quest for Fire. It has no dialogue.

It's just about, I don't know, cave people and how they had to keep fire ongoing. Otherwise, they can't survive. It was very interesting. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier needs to keep going. And it just made me think about how challenging and how much life sucked back then and how lucky we are today yeah the life before air conditioning and heat is wild or the idea before refrigeration where you just had to you had to kill something and like eat it within two days? I don't know.

It's just fucking every day. There was so little joy. Joy came from orgasms, eating, probably sleeping. It was just like there's so many things now that give us. That's why you go to war. Life was so boring and horrible. You might as well kill another guy. Yeah.

I mean, life now is so... I mean, reading this cubits poison arrow just the amount of dopamine fixes we can get at any given moment me sitting in this me rubbing my dog my domesticated pet just like oh yeah baby boy me in air conditioning and air conditioning using electricity we're talking to someone in arizona right now uh yeah i mean that's not making my life any better but i'm just kidding uh what did you say no i said someone someone not just someone a mediator yeah the mediator um yeah it's just like it's it really is but you always hear though which i find it's hacky at this point but when people are like oh you're complaining about you know pronouns or you're complaining

about this back in the day you i mean we're just making up things to complain about you hear that a lot you know what i mean like from people what do you feel about that like when people are like you're just coming up with things to be really annoyed at the whole you know i not just pronoun but like anything but that mostly really bugs me just let let any who you have so you have to now call like get a little bit awkward when you might call someone her when they want to be called they they'll tell you hey i prefer they then it's a little bit awkward for you but if they prefer that what does it fucking matter to you but i think they're saying the people that want to be called they are making the problem so what if they are even if someone is you know i said this before but the trans movement even if someone is choosing to it is

not really trans and just wants attention or just wants to be non-binary just because they want attention how sad that that there's that there's a lot going on in that person's life that they need love so bad that they want to do that. Just give it to them. Just fucking give it to them. And you can,

maybe you can secretly behind their back go, oh, they just want attention and get some joy, dopamine hits out of making fun of them. But if you're really that angry about having to call people differently, look at your own life and think about like what? Why?

What is it? Such a it's such a burden to you. Like, I just don't get it. And like, I have a couple of friends who just kind of roll their eyes about the non-binary thing of like, oh, now they're going as close. Like there's a new one called Kerr, I think, that people literally go by. Well, Kerr said this. Like, it's not neither he or she or they it's just a thing and I go fine who cares like it maybe it's a little

Kerr maybe that person wants attention but like I mean the whole I watched Dave Chappelle's special last night or enough of it to maybe feel like I can say something about it but i mean i i i love how that guy can tell a story he is i learned a lot watching it i love chappelle um i i didn't i was kind of like half i mean i shouldn't even comment because i was kind of half watching it but um and i was in so much canker pain but i just the time i'm so tired of jokes about women who used to be men so they like have a beard or they have like they're bigger or like just making fun of trans people for not looking the way that they want to look or like not passing or being like it's just I'm not saying you you shouldn't be able to make fun of it because yes it's inherently

a little bit silly to see someone a man in a dress because we're used to seeing it's a surprising thing right so equals comedy but you do should you be able to make fun of it yes make fun of it all you want if you want but to me I do have feelings and compassion for people who have had more struggle than others I prefer and I've made those jokes before too I'm not gonna take myself out of it but my argument is we don't need to ban the jokes about it but you need to understand that the reason we don't need to do those jokes is because first of all they've all been made a guy in a dress oh my gosh he had a lower voice whatever uh they're not like just like oh it's a guy wearing a dress, oh my gosh, he had a lower voice, whatever. They're not like, just the, oh, it's a guy wearing lipstick. Like that kind of stuff's been made fun of enough.

And those trans people have a higher rate of suicide than any other, you know, than any other group, I believe. They have only known people making fun of them and probably judging and hating them for who they are. Why do we need to make more jokes? Like, I get it that you're allowed to. I'm not saying ban it and you should be canceled for making fun of them. But just when you're making – why?

Why hurt someone that's already gone through so much to get to a place where they are? So that's why I hope to choose not to – like like that's why i don't make fun of fat people they already are getting made fun of so much their whole lives that they've struggled with it because it's just something that society for some reason feels like it's okay to make fun of comedians who are you know the best at making fun of things and pointing out what's different and what should be making fun of why add to it yeah it's not even about punching down i don't think these people are down necessarily it's just like they've been through enough like and yeah i make jokes about the home about homeless people but i'm making jokes about the fact that there's shit in the streets now because the homeless crisis is so terrible we don't take care of mental illness it's not i'm not like

they shit in the streets what's wrong with them if i were homeless i'd be better than that no i would sit in the street too i'm just saying there comedy doesn't need to be this like if you can't take it you're not a comedian fucking i just say whatever there should be compassion in comedy why not i feel you and dave chappelle is a very compassionate person you can tell he's a very sweet person. And I need to watch the rest of the special to see where it goes. But there were a couple of jokes of like, you know, I like beating up a woman that he was like something about her. Just make it. There was a little bit of that, like making fun of women who look present as men. Yeah.

I mean, his big like and you see it now on twitter and what happens is is goes his argument was essentially that you know african americans are below gay people in regards to uh you know society caring about them and that's and obviously there's tons of african-american gay people so it's like okay well where does that cross over but besides that point it's like you know um we care so john gruden got fired recently and he had he said racist remarks right and then he said homophobic remarks and now all of a sudden he's he's quitting he had to he was fired essentially they let him get away with the racist remarks that's what people so people take chapelle special and they go well here it is here's a reason he said but he also said about three thousand they went through all his emails so he had like not only homophobic but he had way more races way

more homophobic like he went after everybody right but people want to take you know what chapelle said and that's what people do is then they go oh well here's an instance of it where you know and so it's like i think like there's nuance in chappelle like a little bit more than people want to say like a lot of people treat it at surface level but a lot of people are going to take what he says and then i think like what and it's not just chappelle but people take what people say that with nuance and then they go they use it to back up maybe their actual home like their actual like beliefs i might be jumping out of their seats like you see in the special there's a couple idiots who just stand up and clap when chappelle and chappelle's not making these jokes to start a rally no that's what i'm yeah exactly but his his audience might misinterpret it exactly you

know what you're absolutely right like in terms of making jokes based on stereotypes of the differences of black and white people. Yeah, I guess I could lean off that, too, because black people, I need to consider that they've been through a lot more discrimination. And like maybe I mean, there's no doubt they've been through more discrimination and felt could have felt worse about themselves coming up because of like the comments that they hear so yeah i should have compassion like i extended to everyone but yeah i mean i could see that argument of like oh now suddenly people are listening because it's white people white gay people yeah yeah white gay people yeah it was an interesting point he made about that two black if two black guys called the cops the cop would show up and not go which one of you they just be both.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And so it's, you know, I love Chappelle. I got to watch the rest of it, but we got to go. Thank you guys so much for listening. As always, don't be cut out there. And... Jack in the box.
