On eBay, every find has a story.
Like if you're looking for a vintage ban tea.
Not just a tea, the band tea.
You wore it everywhere.
Until your BFF stole it.
Now you're on eBay.
And there it is.
Same tea from the same tour.
The things you love have a way of finding their way back to you.
Especially on eBay.
Where else can you find that mint trading card you searched everywhere for?
or your first car, the one you wished you never sold.
It has to be eBay.
Shop eBay for millions of fines, each with a story.
eBay, things people love.
All right.
Hey, clap for safety.
Hey, look at that. That's pretty safe.
Safety.
Okay.
Hey, everybody.
Welcome, welcome to the first, I guess, technical, technically first episode of the Snark Tank podcast.
I suppose.
We had an inaugural episode
with Zachary Pebbles,
Psychic Pebbles, Animator.
You all know him very well.
That was episode zero, though,
because that's how much I value Zach.
So we're on episode one now.
I'm just kidding around.
We all kid around these parts.
So we're here with, shut up.
Hey, why are you got to be like that much?
Let me finish.
We're here with Derek Blackman.
Are you still going by that name?
I mean, kind of, yeah.
The Black Man?
I just don't want, you don't do you think it's weird when people search your name and shit?
Yeah, I don't have anything weird on my real name.
But it's just still weird for people to be searching my name.
So it's like, here's my show name, here's my stage name.
So if you search Derek Blackman, you'll find YouTube stuff.
I thought genuinely for a little while that it was actually.
I really thought that was his name.
I was like, oh no, that's not his name.
I sound like a bigot.
I felt like an idiot because I was like, of course that's not his name.
When you really look at it for more than 10 seconds, I was like,
he has no reason to lie.
I mean, so people were confused because black men's a real last name.
That's why.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
And then people are like, oh, did you get your channel name from your last name?
Like, oh, you're a black man and then some black guy or something.
And I'm just like, no, I just, there's a wrestler named Steve Blackman.
I just took his last name.
You just stole.
So you played a person's name.
You stole?
So you played a person's name.
I literally stole it.
Fantastic.
Yeah.
I'm pretty sure Tom's some black guy stole something.
Oh.
Oh shit.
Isn't that messed up?
I need to go back.
We're going there already.
We're going there already.
We've done so much damage to the progress we've already we've been making over the years.
What progress?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, regression.
We're all falling.
I think the Mayans were.
I think the world ended
If they were right, they would still be
fucking around and they're not
Well, I mean, maybe they didn't want to fuck around
I mean, maybe they were like, oh, we don't want to deal with that
So they killed themselves off, so they threw the babies
I know adults off the cliff
I don't think that's a Mayan thing, is that?
I thought they all just like threw babies off
The cliffs to Sun Gods, some shit like that
Something or is that mine or Aztec?
I don't know the difference. I honestly don't know the difference
They're all backwater fucking lunatics
Is that race?
I mean,
Is it?
I don't know.
I think the mines are older.
And like, I think the minds are like the older fucks that no one cares about.
And then there's the Aztecs that were like the, the Mexican Spartans, I think.
And then they would.
The Mexican Spartans.
I thought Mexican were Incans.
Jesus Christ.
Welcome to the snark tank.
Welcome to the snark tank.
This is a shoot the shit kind of podcast.
We got some hot takes that we're going to be looking at later.
Spicy.
Thank you for that much needed interjection.
We have some hot takes that the audience.
and sent in.
I haven't looked at him yet.
They're probably all really awful.
I love that.
But we'll check them out later.
For now,
we're just kind of shooting the shit.
I guess we should kind of talk about
the thing that I guess everybody's talking about,
which is this fucking Shane Dawson
documentary thing.
Yeah.
Have you been watching it, Sweene?
I've watched it.
You watch the whole thing?
Not all of it.
I watched the episode when they went and met Jake.
I watched the first episode,
and that's some of the second episode.
That second one was awful.
It was a bad one.
It was terrible. I didn't finish it.
I didn't like it because of the fact.
I skimmed.
I mean, I like Shane Dawson.
You know, he seems like a sweet dude.
I don't have a problem with Shane Dawson.
Yeah.
But I feel like that, I feel like that whole, I don't know.
I feel like he shouldn't be doing it because he's not a psychologist.
I feel like this is not where he should be at.
He shouldn't be in this.
He shouldn't be in these woods right now.
Yeah.
It's not even just that.
It's like a cat being at a dog part.
Like, this isn't where you belong, buddy.
You got to go back where you belong, kid.
There's murky here, fool.
I mean, look, it's not even just that.
I think.
It, to me, it was pretty obvious that Jake Paul, even from the videos I've made of him, it was pretty obvious that he's not a sociopath.
Yeah.
I think this was just, I mean, the first thing is, what is this, an eight-part series?
I don't need eight hours of fucking Jake Paul, like, to know who he is, right?
Yeah.
Usually there's like a documentary, and maybe it's two hours at best.
Yeah.
And that'll cover somebody's life thoroughly.
Thorough.
Yeah.
But it's just like, oh, that's sweet money.
You're getting 10 million fucking views per video?
I understand why you're doing it.
might even want to stretch it a fucking 20.
Oh, no, exactly.
I don't begrudge him for making...
He's making decent cast.
Well, I see eight parts, and I see, like, okay,
well, this is very obviously trying to stretch
this out because it's very profitable.
And that's totally fine.
I totally understand it. If I was in that position,
you'd be seeing a 50-part documentary series
on Jake Paul.
There'll be one episode dedicated entirely to his foot.
What, oh, man,
how many scabs does this foot have?
Where did Jake Paul get this foot scab?
Whoa.
And it'll be, ed's like, whoa, he's telling like a story and then it cuts to like 9-11 footage with like a dramatic swell.
Because it's basically what the documentary is.
It's just footage of Shane Dawson hanging out with Jake Paul and then it's just quick cuts to horrible things.
Yeah, yeah, it was.
Yeah, episode two was especially like that.
I was like, oh my God.
Hey, Jake, where did you go to school?
Ohio, he turns to the camera and then like it cuts to like a pig being splayed open by ISIS.
Or like the.
Or, like, pushing somebody off a roof and then someone else not catching them.
Well, it's usually, like, pretty relevant.
If you're talking about school, it's probably going to cut to, like, you know, a shooting.
Yeah, exactly.
Like Captain Columbine showing up with all his gadgets and gizmos.
Inspector Gat, bitch.
That was that, like a gatling gun pun?
No, like Gat, like, you know, they used gats.
Like a Gat.
Like a Gat.
Brat.
Brat, brat.
goes the gat in your back.
I give that like a maybe like a four out of ten that one.
That wasn't my best.
Yeah,
that wasn't the best one.
But yeah,
I'm exaggerating.
It doesn't literally cut to like ISIS.
I hope not.
But I actually would have respected it more.
I would have loved that.
That would have been real hardcore.
He would definitely got a famous movie like,
yo dude,
you're the realist out there.
Keep doing what you're fucking doing.
Oh, yeah.
That's amazing.
When you keep watching like,
oh,
what is he going to do next?
Like it gets more and more gruesome.
It has to.
At the end,
it's like a firing range full of children.
It's like,
whoa.
The end is an actual video of him dying
Of Shane dying
And he cuts to it somehow
He edited his own
It's actually real footage
He is dead
Shane Dawson is dead
Breaking news
I'd be like
Rest of peace Shane
I'm like whoa dude
You were like
He's like a really nice guy
I feel like Shane's gonna be like
These people really hate me
The fuck no
I don't hate you
We don't hate you I actually like Shane a lot
I didn't like it back in the day
When he was making like weird sketches
That I just didn't really
care for all that much. I've been watching Shane Dawson since before he admitted he was gay.
Really? Yeah, yeah. I think so too. Like a long time. I did a video where like I think I kind of
jokingly cut his book in half with the thousand degree knife and ate it. Oh my God. I remember
that shit. Yeah. Dude. I forgot about that. So you probably I think I don't think I think it's why it's
fucking crazy. Things can get so hot that on contact they set things on fire. That shit blows my mind.
That's how heat works. But it's still insane. It's still like, whoa. If you're like,
a 10, if you're like a caterpillar,
it's probably gonna blow your fucking mind.
I mean, I mean, this is, fire's hot, bro.
Like, real hot.
That's a hot.
That's a hot take.
That's a hot.
And it makes other things make hot.
Breaking news from Sweeney.
Fire is hot, yo.
Bro, fire's hot, dude.
What?
No way.
I don't know.
This whole thing, though, I think,
I thought it was, can't.
So somebody was explaining this to me.
There's an episode in this documentary series where,
Jake, don't you dare lick the mic.
I'm not licking it
Oh my god
There's an episode in this series
Where
Shane brings the therapist
To Jake Paul's house
Yeah
And has her observe him
Without his knowledge
I'm pretty sure
Like I might be wrong here
And correct me if I am
But I'm almost certain
That you could lose your license
For doing that
I think that's actually
genuinely like not a thing you can do.
Well, I think most therapists would observe people in their natural.
It's like if you know they're there, they might try to act differently.
Well, yeah, like obviously.
But I think at that moment it might be like trespassing or some shit.
Like she's like on his property looking around at him in the shadows.
You know, like that's not okay.
I think I heard that as long as she's not diagnosing him or something, it's fine.
But I still think it's like weird.
It's very weird.
And I mean, there's a possibility of when Shane first started this docu-series,
there was like a preview of what was happening.
And at the very end of it,
whoever the camera guys was like,
oh,
are you worried about this or something?
And he said like,
well,
yeah,
I'm worried that Jake Paul has no idea
what he's getting into.
That was 100% bullshit.
Oh,
yeah.
Like, Jake Paul knows everything.
And I feel like possibly
that he probably even knows about this shit too.
Do you think you know about the therapist?
I think it's a work.
I really,
because it seems,
it seems so like,
I don't know, man
That's like
That's a really fucking shady thing to do
And I feel like
Hey for entertainment value
And I was also
I was also questioning too
Because I saw that episode
I think it's like two of them
Where they're at his house or whatever
Because I was like I want to see the fucking team 10 house
And then to be honest
I was like god damn
How fuck do I join man
Like
They showed like a huge house
And a chef
That was kind of what got me
The chef
It's having a fucking chef dude
So having a chef would be the
I would have a chef in this apartment
Imagine having a chef dude
This apart
Yeah
Just in my small apartment
I'd have a man
Chained to the ceiling of the kitchen
Ready to cook at a moment's notice
We just lower him
We never let him out of the time
It's like it's like Frankenstein
He's lowering him down from the top of the room
Now cook for me
So I can spend you again
It's like Mission Impossible
I like he's hovering the whole time
But he's still fucking cooking
No no I should spend him down
He can walk around the kitchen
But if he moves too far
He gets zapped
So it's like that
It's like the end of breaking pad
With Jess
Like tied to the thing and he can't move
RIP Jesse
You didn't deserve that
Did he didn't die?
I mean he might as well die
Also spoilers but also not
Because shit I spoiled it
He doesn't die
Spoiler alert
Is this spoiler alert to tell somebody
That somebody doesn't die
Breaking bad's been out for like 60 years
It's also a great show
You're your fault
I suppose
Yeah
There's like a cap right
Usually the I think
Two years is for me
Two I was gonna say
With probably
even less than a year.
I want to say,
like if you're a personal friend of mine,
12 minutes.
If you haven't finished this series,
a punnet ending.
If you haven't finished this
40 hour series in 12 minutes,
sorry.
Read a synapsis, quick.
You got to do your best
to just stay away from spoilers
and it's damn near impossible
with fucking anything.
I don't mind it being spoiled
unless they don't explain to me
in explicit detail how everything happens.
You spoil things for yourself.
You're an idiot.
Oh, yeah, because I can't wait.
You, like, walk into-
I don't understand people like that, man.
It's insane to me.
Like, I was playing Spider-Man,
and I got it, like, before him, right?
Yeah.
And I was playing the way,
and he walked in and he was just, like,
stared at, like, the story.
It's like, you're gonna go through this in minutes.
I'm only a couple minutes ahead of you.
I just stared and I absorbed,
and I was like, oh, wow, look, this game looks amazing.
Wow, I can't wait until that happens to me.
Yeah.
It's like, just fucking wait.
Yeah, my friend literally came at 1130 last night
just to borrow Spider-Man,
and but he's already watched all of the
cutscenes and I'm just like
well why do you I mean
I feel like I wouldn't have much drive to finish the game
Yeah why would you
I watch cutscenes when I'm not gonna play the fucking game
Yeah basically yeah
That's what I did with fucking Metal Gear Solid 4
I'm not gonna play that fucking long ass cutscene
Not like an hour and a half cutscene
I mean I'm not gonna lie
I've literally gotten popcorn just to watch
like Metal Gear Solid cutscenes
Just to like not play the game again
but I was like, I just want to watch cutscenes
because they're so entertaining.
Have you ever seen...
What?
Have you ever seen those videos?
Do you know who Darkside Phil is?
I know the name.
I'm not...
DSP gaming?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know DSP.
Okay, I know exactly with DSP.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He has these great...
He doesn't have them.
Other people have compiled these compilations.
Oh, my God.
This is how you don't play.
And it's just him
not understanding how to play a game
interspersed with like some of the comments from those videos being placed on screen like this guy can't even figure this shit out
it's like it's some of the most entertaining shit i've seen on youtube
just you should see it everybody watching this or i guess listening to this because there's no video
should uh absolutely look that up this is how you don't play middle gear solid five or middle
or middle solid any of them i love watch people that are bad at video games play video games
it's like it's fun it's like whoa your your your synapses are they're not there
There's pretty much like there's, there's only two ways that you can watch people play video games.
It's if they're really bad or if they're like incredible, like to a degree where it's like unsettling.
I can't watch somebody who's okay at a video game.
Incredible gamers are impressive though.
Because it's like, I want to just look at their hands when they play games.
That's all I want to see your hands motion.
It's just like, fuck.
Like watching a pro smash player move their hands.
It's like I hear, you hear so much noise from the controller.
Like if you just muted the game and you listen to the controller, it would sound like somebody's playing like a fucking symphony.
on a fucking guitar
or something beautiful
is this motion
I don't know if it's beautiful
it sounds more like to be
like a bunch of like
horrifying clicking degenerates
you know man
than you know
we define beauty differently
you know
it's very forward thinking
beauty is in the eye of the beholder
as they say
I'm beholding a gun tinna
what the fuck
what are you been up to man
I feel like we right
I feel like we said everything
we needed to
about Shane I don't know
like what is
Is there anything that we need to say about Shane?
Not really?
The series isn't over yet.
Yeah, it's a little more, which I don't understand why.
But hey, continue.
Yeah, the editing's a bit dramatic.
That was the funniest thing to me, seeing his reactions.
But to, in Shane's defense, that's literally him.
Yeah, yeah.
If you look at him in other videos, he just does that.
You know, he's flamboyant as fuck.
Like, he's very, very, like, something happens.
He could literally just stub his toe, and he would look like he'd fucking got shot in the fucking face.
And it's like, you know what I'm saying?
It's like the biggest reaction ever.
And that's just him.
So I'm not just trying to say he's doing it just to spice shit up.
I think he's literally just, it would be kind of annoying being in the room with him.
You might even touch him.
You might just be like, just because he's fucking freaked out.
You know, like, oh, something different just happened.
I respect the amount of content that he's putting out and that it does seem like there's a lot of effort behind it.
Yeah.
He did manage to get into the Team 10 house, which is like something that I wouldn't have.
I don't really think anybody else could have done that really.
Because I feel like everybody else on YouTube as a platform is pretty...
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with Sophia Bush.
Check out this special moment we did on our show presented by eBay.
There's a different kind of care that comes with letting something meaningful go,
especially when it has a story attached to it.
When you pass something on, you want to know it's being handled with respect.
I took part in my first ever giant charity sale,
and I was able to auction several items from my personal closet on eBay.
Some of them were truly one-of-a-kind pieces connected to specific moments, TV sets, or from personal collections.
One of the things I loved the most about doing this with eBay is there was a way for everyone to shop.
Sure, people who wanted a pair of my jeans could get them, but people who might be a different size than me could buy accessories.
If you're a size 8, you're lucky, because that's my shoe size.
They could do purses, jewelry, all sorts of things.
Some people needed winterwear, some people wanted summer dresses.
It wound up being so much fun.

Ooh, inflammatory
towards the Pals. Yeah. I feel like NerdCity
wouldn't have been able to do that. Idubs wouldn't have been able
to do that. Oh my God. If Idubs went to their house, it would just, he would just
have so many backhanded insults. Yeah. Like just so many.
You'd be like, dude, chill.
Like, but what I'm saying is like, Shane's like kind of, people know him as kind of
being relatively kind of
fair? He doesn't seem like...
He doesn't pick favorites or choose favorites.
He doesn't have any like vendettas that we know of.
Yeah, exactly.
So, yeah, he...
Yeah, I mean, he was really the only person
who could have done this.
Yeah.
And it's coming out pretty good
except for that horrendous second episode
where it was just 40 minutes of
a therapy session, basically.
Yeah, that was fucking...
Just figuring out what it is
and you can just Google what it is.
Yeah, I want to make a video with Lexus.
It's like, are you a person?
Yes.
and then it's just like that's it
basically it's basically
if you boil down the documentary
it's like is Jake Paul human being
the answer is yes
there you go
the idea of so they made it like horror
is she like oh sociopaths is something to be
yeah well Shane does the conspiracy theory
yeah
sociopaths are scary don't get me
I mean yeah
I mean the I mean the scary ones are
you know what I mean
I think in general that it's kind of fucking creepy
I don't having empathy
that shit's wild
I don't that's not necessarily
well the thing to me is it's like
I'm almost certain
that it's kind of
every person who is remotely successful at anything that they do is probably is probably sociopathic
in some way.
I think to be at the top of YouTube or to be a titan of industry or to like be Steve Jobs or
Bill Gates or the president of the United States, this is Trump, this is Obama, this is literally
all of them.
I think you have to be a sociopath.
You have to be insane.
To a certain extent.
To a degree.
I think you have to have some sort of personality disorder in which you feel like you
need to get more power. You have to have a lust, an urge for, like, being able to be the highest
point of anyone else. Yeah. I don't believe you're a sociopath. I think that's a difference.
No, I don't think so, man. I don't think so. If I'm not mistaken, that means you don't have
empathy, right? That means you can't display empathy. Like, something would happen to you. It's only,
it's only like, it's only for you to get stronger, more power. To get to what is this,
anime? I mean, hey, any RPG you want to think of, but listen. I, I don't know. I think the whole
sociopathy thing is to me it just seems like
if you
the presidency is a pretty good example
to think as a human being
that you should control that you are
responsible to believe yourself
to be responsible enough to wield
the power of the strongest
country on the
face of the earth the only planet
that we know
as home
I think you have to have a degree of like
narcissism or some
kind of
You have to be insane
To believe that you
To believe that you can handle that responsibility
People who seek that job out
I don't understand
That just sounds hilarious to me
It's like what
Because when you break it
When you think about a president
Like yeah you're gonna lead the country
But then you say it like that one
Actually it's like fuck
People freak out over
That's a lot
People freak out over literally
Every single thing
The president does
All the time
Oh yeah
For the last like
For as long as TV has existed
As long as there's been a president
For the most people
It's not a good idea
Exactly
You remember when I think Obama
Like came out
like a tan suit or something.
I remember him coming out in like a weird suit.
He's like, what a fuck.
What a travis seat of the White House?
It's not a very presidential look.
I'm like, what is going on?
He's just wearing different clothes.
He's just wearing shit.
He has a whole, he probably has so much fucking clothes.
It's in his fucking Alexander Wing.
Fucking Versauchin is in his closet and he can't wear any of it.
One day he's like, I'm going to use one of these.
I have this.
We put it on.
You can imagine Obama in like a disco guy?
You can't even imagine.
I actually can.
I literally can.
Of course.
Because, no, I've seen old pictures of him with the fucking fro smoking weed.
Like, it's fucking fantastic.
Yeah.
And people, that becomes a headline that, oh, he used to do this.
Oh, how crazy is it that he does March Madness and he drinks beer?
I'm like, he's a fucking person.
He's not a sin.
He's not vision.
He can have a personality.
Right.
But what I was, but like, yeah, but I think you pick, pick any, pick any incredibly successful person.
I feel like Steve Jobs in particular, I think is a pretty good case.
Oh, yeah.
Because he like, everybody who worked under him really hated him.
And you could tell that he didn't really care that much for the people working on it so much as he just wanted to do something incredible.
And he wanted to be the person behind making an incredible thing and like being like, I want to give this awesome thing to the world.
And I want to be that the mind.
You know, I want to put this into the world.
I don't give a shit.
Whatever.
The people working, I don't give a shit.
whatever. That's what I got from it.
You know what I mean? I'm sure he's like, I'm sure he cares about people.
You know, he's not like an, he's not an android.
I mean, he probably cares about his family.
Yeah, he's got friends, I'm sure.
There's like the inner circle and then other people, I think that's,
but that kind of thing that's people in general.
But there is like the, you know, you said the sociopathy of,
of, yeah, getting to the absolute top and climbing it and stepping on other people's heels
and paying people, you know, minimum wage.
to do fucking hard to be.
Like, you'll do this for me and I'll pay you, but not a lot.
Your desire for power and influence has to supersede your care for other people.
Yeah.
Because it almost has to.
It has to work to actually get to that point.
To be able to progress, like, far in ways you have to step up people.
Yeah.
To get higher and higher, which is like insane.
It's like, fuck, that just sucks.
That's the way it is.
But even like, even in like very basic things.
Like, what about?
Like, if I want to, like, I want to be a nurse, obviously.
And in the nursing program, I got to make people.
got to fail and I got to be really okay
at a bunch of people applying for that shit and it's
not getting it. Yeah. And that sucks
just like shit I wish people could do it too.
But like fuck you. I want to be able to provide
for myself in the future.
But fuck you. And that translates
to what you were saying earlier about like entertainers
and all these people like even when it comes to YouTube
there's certain people like
where I've gotten now there's certain
people that I
were coming up with right in the YouTube
world. A lot of us had very
similar subscriber counts and stuff and
and certain people took off
and other people didn't.
And then there's certain, like,
I don't really,
like, I'm like,
hey, how's it going?
But I don't really give a shit
anymore.
I'm kind of like,
and it's not,
it's not like I don't give a shit
about them as people,
but as far as, like,
say, my career advancing,
you kind of want to be around
successful people
because that's how you keep pushing yourself.
That's how you get further.
They also motivate you.
Like, being around,
like, being around people
who are just, like,
not doing anything is like
the most demotivating thing ever.
It really is.
What the fuck am I doing that?
When I see certain people that,
like,
oh, within a year, maybe they, you know, haven't even hit, like, a certain threshold that's, you know, that's not really anything that they would celebrate or something like that, or maybe it's not like a career yet or something.
It's like, oh, damn, you know, well, good luck.
I hope things work out for you eventually, but I want to start drawing.
It's kind of like, say, I mentioned Joe Rogan and The Rock.
Like, they're such huge inspirations because the Joe Rogan does so much shit in the Rock, obviously fucking does everything.
and he's the biggest star on the planet.
And so I look at that shit,
and I can only imagine being in the presence of him,
it would make me want to work infinitely harder.
Like, just to try to keep up.
Even though I know I'm not going to keep up with that fucking guy,
but I'm going to try just being around him.
And so it's one of those things that you leave other people behind the dust.
Like, yeah, fuck you.
Get out of you.
I feel like I'm a reluctant sociopath.
I feel like I almost want to be like, hey, man, I really want, like that.
I want a mansion, you know what I mean?
I'm going to step on everybody.
But I'm also like, I feel pretty good where I'm at.
I think I'm okay.
Like, it's not hurting me being here.
It's not hurting me not having a mansion.
But sometimes I'll wake up in the middle of the mouth,
I'll like, I want my high rise.
And they'll go back to sleep.
They'll have sleep paralysis and I'll see that demon.
You'll wake up out of your sleep and demand to have a mansion and pass right back up.
It's serious.
Like being motivated is kind of like a psychotic thing.
It's weird.
Like when you, when you have like a, if you have like an idea, right,
and you want to get.
get out and like, oh man, I really want to do this.
That's like, that supersedes literally everything.
Like, if my parents are calling me, I'm not answering that phone.
Like, I'm sorry, I have to do this.
Yeah.
Because, like, the way I work is, like, very kind of, like, burst-oriented.
I kind of, like, have an idea and I have to get to it immediately.
Otherwise, the moment's gone.
It's, I'm out of the zone.
It's fucked.
Yeah, yeah.
You know?
So it's almost like a, like, just like a tunnel vision thing.
For me, it's more, like, it's more fizzled out where, like, I can get to it.
But I know, by that at a certain point, I feel what you feel.
It's not as like a short of a burst
But I do eventually
I'm like like I don't fuck I just don't want to do I wish I could be like these people who are like really consistent
You know what I mean? Like who just like constantly working
I can't figure it out
Yeah I can't figure out how to get there
Those people I feel like there's a lot of people like that they have a team behind them
They have people to support them
Like Pewtie pie has editors and stuff
Yeah man it's hard
I wish I could come out with stuff a lot more
I have ideas
I have a board like you
Yeah full of shit
But the thing is
I can film
like almost everything within that week.
I'm not going to fucking edit all of it.
That's so much editing.
An editing session for me,
for my basic videos.
When I do something,
if it's like,
if I'm putting like TLC into it,
it's going to take six to eight hours.
That's a fucking work day.
So that's one video.
And I know it's way longer for somebody
that puts more work for like you.
You know what I'm saying?
It takes a while.
Yeah.
So how the fuck are you supposed to like put
shit out all the time just by yourself answer emails you got to fucking try to keep up with social
media and see what the hell is going on your brain never shuts off because you're always thinking
about stuff or you're thinking about how you're not putting out enough shit exactly yeah never
your brain never shuts off and that's one of the the craziest things about being in this position
right yeah i think that's kind of why a lot of people who are kind of considered sociopathic
um can thrive in this environment because they don't have this much emotions to affect them
They're just kind of like
Cutthroat and doing it
But going back to Jake Paul
He especially with this documentary
He's still a fucking child
That his girlfriend
I don't know her name
The one with the big ass cheeks
Erica?
Yeah she has like the
Erica Carstale
Yeah she looks like fucking nuts in her cheek or something
Or she's like fucking Marlon Brando
Like stuff in the cotton and shit
So I'm like what's going on with her fucking cheeks dude
I think she's cute
I mean she's cute but she also looks like
You know, she got stung by like 40 bees.
She has interesting features.
Yeah.
She looks peculiar.
I understand.
She looks peculiar.
Unique.
Peculiar is almost worse.
Unique.
Peculiar is almost worse.
You know what to tell a girl you look.
No, no, no.
If your girlfriend came up to you, it's like, Kingston, you look peculiar.
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with Sophia Bush.
Check out this special moment we did on our show, presented by eBay.
When I was living in Chicago, I told.
part in my first ever giant charity sale and I was able to auction several items from my personal
closet on eBay. They were items that marked huge moments in my life and in my career. And though I was
ready to pass them along, I also wanted to make sure they were going to someone who would love
them. One of the things I loved the most about doing this with eBay is there was a way for everyone
to shop. It wound up being so much fun to see where each and every
item was going where it was going to be loved. And in passing items along like that,
authenticity really matters to the person who's getting them. That's why I love eBay's authenticity
guarantee. They weren't just listing my items. They were verifying them, making sure something was
genuinely from where it claimed to be, in this case, my closet. To listen to more, check out the
full episode wherever you get your podcasts. Find what you love, sell what you don't. eBay, things people
Love. Agents who are realtors do more than open doors. They analyze market trends, interest rates,
comps. They can tell you about flood zones, mixed use zones, and decode acronyms like HOA, APR, MLS. They connect you
to lawyers, contractors, even Phil, the Seward scope guy. They negotiate, coordinate, advocate for you,
close the deal with you, and hand the keys to you. They bring you home. Realtor's are members of the
National Association of Realtors
Right by you
You'd be like what
What do you mean by that?
What does that mean? What does that mean?
It's almost worse than like strange or bad
You know what I mean?
No peculiar means like you haven't seen this
Yeah like I can't figure it out
Yeah like what are you
What is that?
Yeah
But
On appearance
Is it me or does Jake Paul
Look insanely
Retarded
Like he has like
He has like dead
He has, like, dead-eyed expressions and his mouth hangs open sometimes.
He has a very, he just looks blank.
No, you know what it is?
He's super guarded.
He, he, like, I think he feels a lot of things, and then he's like, he locks up.
And he's like, oh, no, because he doesn't want to, because he doesn't want to show it.
That's, I think that's what's happening.
People are going to instantly slander him.
Well, no, because his fucking brother would just slander him.
His brother, his brother, fucking slapped with his ex.
That's fucked up.
That's actually fucked up.
That's real.
I thought it was a joke, and I thought it was, like, a play thing.
And then I realized.
that he actually did that.
And I was like, that's, your big brother is your protector.
Yeah.
That's what your big brother does.
They fucking protect you.
It's fucked up.
And then he fucked his girlfriend.
Yeah, that's, it's really fucked up.
Like, honestly, like, and I think I said this on Twitter a while ago.
So you can go back and I've been consistent with it.
I've always said that Logan is far worse.
Oh, no.
Logan's like far, even before the suicide force thing.
I was like, this guy's like way worse than Jake Paul.
Everyone believes.
I think Jake Paul is just more like kind of, but he's a kid.
So he's more like annoying like a kid is.
caught up in it.
I think he's just trying,
he does strike me as somebody who's just like.
He's young.
Yeah.
He's a young mentality.
He's still a kid.
I mean like,
doesn't mean he's not doing anything wrong.
He's doing a lot of shit wrong.
That's true.
But like the idea of that like Logan is a, he's, he's older.
You need that you should know right from wrong much more so than your kid brother.
Plus you're his role model.
Well, he's, how old is Jake?
He's like 22.
He's like 22, 21, 21, 22.
He's old enough.
He's definitely old enough, but it's just like, all right.
He's old.
enough with an older brother like that.
Look at how...
And their fucking dad.
I heard their dad wasn't that good idea.
Dude, Greg is...
When we talk about piece of shit,
like that guy is...
Even Erica and even Jake...
Everybody in that house.
They're talking shit about fucking the dad.
Like, oh, Greg Paul
is a cock smoking piece of shit
and he fucks young girls.
And now not talking about he, like, underage
because there was like allegations,
but just there was a video that leaked
and I'm like, okay, that girl,
If she's not under age, she's definitely like...
Just, just in the marker.
She's barely legal.
And like...
Just hit in a marker.
That shit was wild.
I don't know if you saw that.
I didn't see it.
I heard about it.
It was uncanny.
It was wild, dude.
The noises are kind of in my head.
Searing in your brain.
Oh man, I'm glad I didn't watch it.
Yeah, it's a good thing.
I can't do it.
You, uh, Sweeney over here always, he constantly puts on...
I'll be hanging out with him in the living room and he'll be like, hey, you want to, you want you in for a treat?
And then he'll pull up videos of,
People getting brutally maimed by cars and put it on our 55-inch television in the living room with the window open with kids out in the courtyard looking in watching.
To teach him about their fucking mortality, dude.
You could always not be alive at any moment.
You need to remember that.
He'd be aware.
Is Sweeney a sociopath?
That's an exchange-dustin-dustin documentary.
Everybody's like, who?
Who?
He shows up here and he walks in, hey, I'm like, what is what's going on?
What is going?
I'd fucking love that.
I would hate that.
Because I'm like, sure.
Even though I don't think I am one, that would make me think I'm one.
I should make that documentary.
Dude, I'll make that documentary.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
10 parts.
Don't do that.
10 parts.
Do 10 parts, but like.
Because I'm weird as shit, guys, I'm very fucking weird.
And like, that would just make people like, oh my God, this guy is a literal demon.
Someone needs to tranquilize him.
I'm so fucking.
What are you?
A gamer girl in 2010?
I'm so weird guys.
I'm such a weird one.
I'm pretty fucking strange.
I'm just one of the guys.
Right?
I sit up when I sleep sometimes.
That's fucking...
That is peculiar.
That is peculiar.
I start waking up and fall asleep and don't go back to laying down.
That's disgusting.
He does this.
That's disgusting.
And it's good shit for episode one.
No, it's none.
This is fucking really good shit.
Don't video me.
I hate to break this to you.
You video'd be a lot.
But I have a lot of footage.
Do you remember when you talk fucking Cat Williams in that fucking Buffalo Wild Wings for Nore?
We saw a couple of Wildwings and I couldn't stop laughing.
Also, I saw a fantastic.
picture of a little kid just as
Pennywise and I could
not hold my laughter back
Wait, was this recent?
This is very recent. It's like two weeks ago. It's like a week
A week or a half ago. It's like Friday. We went out
to get Buffalo Wild Wows really late because it was the only thing
that was open and we walked in and fucking
Cat Williams walks out. And the waitress is
like, is that Cat Williams? And I'm like, what the
fuck? Why? What is he doing in a Buffalo
Wilde? He lives in Burbank. He lives in
What famous people live in Burbank? A lot.
Actually quite a view. It's Burbank. Really?
Yeah. This is like the
Burbank and Glendale
Is that a thing?
Yeah
Yeah they don't want to live directly in L.A.
I guess they wouldn't want to live in L.A.
They just live on the outside of them.
LA sucks cock, bro.
No one wants to live there.
I have to drive through here to gay
and I fucking hate it.
I hate so much.
Ali's a freaking
bunch of fucking loony birds there, man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean here is crazy people,
but like,
like I'm from New York, right?
And New York has crazy people.
Don't get me wrong.
Yeah.
But L.A. has like
astroplaners.
Like fucking people that are just in a different
round. Like these
people that are just running through a fucking cosmos
right now. They just
got a completely different wavling. The thing about
New York though is that like there's a lot of crazy people
there but they get lost in the crowd
right? You can pass by them
and they won't bother you. But out here
the streets aren't particularly that crowded. Or big.
The roads are with
cars because everybody drives and there's no public
transportation worth a damn. But like
over here you run into a homeless person
they are now or like a crazy
person. I shouldn't say homeless because they're homeless people
who are just actually totally fine.
But they're crazy people, right?
Hey, it's Jay Shetty from On Purpose.
Check out the best of a moment we did, presented by eBay.
I'd never owned a vintage camera before.
There was something about it that felt almost unnecessary
in a world where everything lives on our phones.
But I wanted to change that.
So I started the hunt for a point-and-shoot camera.
When I finally found the perfect one on eBay,
I didn't keep it to myself, I left it out on a table.
Always within reach,
people started picking it up without asking, family, friends, everyone to take a photo of whatever
felt important to them in that moment. There was no editing, no retakes, you took the photo and that
was it. The moment became real right away. It was about choosing something. Deciding this matters,
even if it came out blurry, the vintage camera belonged to the room, to the moment, to the people
in it. Over time, the photos started to pile up on the fridge, on shelves tucked into books.
Each one a reminder that meaning isn't always planned. That's what I appreciate about,
It's a place where you can find things that bring people together and pass along things you no longer need,
so they can become part of someone else's memories.

I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man.
Tell us who you are and what you do.
I'm Dan Morgan.
I'm an attorney and a managing partner at,
Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw
billboarded years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah, 20 billion
recovered. It's actually, I think somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year. And each
year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and
bigger as time goes on. Awesome. So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan? What would I do
if I got into an accident.
Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open.
Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24-7, 365.
Wow.
Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan,
America's Large Injury Law,
from, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you.
If you run into one of those in L.A.,
they're in your life.
They're a part of your life.
Yeah.
Now, they will talk to you.
They will let you know how they feel.
you know it doesn't stop there was this point where i was like uh me bunty and lacy
were in downtown l i was at e3 and and lacy and bonte were i think they were meeting somebody and
we were we we wanted to meet up somewhere downtown l.a and we had to cross like three blocks
to get to the car she parked like really far away the first block we crossed some crazy person
asking for asking for a cigarette like screaming and like tearing his hair out and i was like
okay well okay sorry don't have a cigarette
it.
It's the second block, another person,
you guys, spare chain, he's like shaking.
He's like shaking up a storm.
And I'm like, okay, no, sorry.
And then the third block, somebody was like,
excuse me, and I didn't look at him.
I just kept walking for it.
I was like, I don't feel like doing this.
And then I hear Buntie screaming from behind me.
Chris, and I turn around.
He says, it's a fan.
So I ignored this fan because, and then I turned around.
I said, I'm sorry.
I thought you were going to ask me for money.
which I can't imagine made that any better.
Does he just seem like a piece of shit?
I just like,
I was like one of those things where it's like
you caught me at like the worst possible time.
It's just,
I must have looked like such a dick.
Well, also in back home,
you know,
the winter kills a lot of people.
So,
I mean,
it gets so cold that it takes,
it takes some of the portions of the people
that don't have,
balance,
unfortunately,
like,
which is fucked up.
That's horrid because like,
it's true.
Well,
the subways are like shockingly warm.
You know,
they're always a little toasty.
Yeah.
Because there's so much fucking piss in there.
Always keeping a nice and fucking warm over there.
All that fucking piss is warmed up all the heat.
But once you get to the upper, when you get the service level,
like you got that Thanos left, that weather that's like really taking care of people, you know, just getting them.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not in a long time.
It's the last time I was around there.
Yeah.
Where'd you go?
I was, we were passing through.
I didn't actually get to go because I was on a tour.
And I didn't actually get to see New York
We passed through, but I did stop in Jamaica for a little while
Oh, Queens?
Yeah.
So it was like, whoa, that was fucking a trip to do.
We got some subway.
And I was like, I couldn't stop laughing because of all the accents, man.
Oh, yeah.
Jamaica Queens is interesting.
Oh, yeah.
Jamaica Queens in particular has some strong accents.
At least from what I can recall.
I haven't been there in like Queens in general.
They're characters.
Yeah.
They're character.
I kind of hated going to Queens.
I don't hate it.
It always felt like it took way longer than it needed to.
I just hated, I hated Brooklyn, but I hate Brooklyn from like the 2000s.
That's why.
I hate Brooklyn, but for like 2000.
You have the weirdest. What do you?
I hated Brooklyn.
You have a strange list of things you hate.
I don't like Manhattan.
Like I don't like, I don't like Imagine Dragons or like pineapple pizza.
That's really about it.
I don't know.
I don't like, very normal.
Very healthy.
But I'm like, I don't know.
Like Brooklyn was always like every time went to Brooklyn, something outrageous happened.
That's, that's New York.
What the?
No. So what do you like about New York?
I love the Bronx. I like Manhattan.
He likes the Bronx. I grew up, let me tell you so. I was born in the Bronx.
I grew up. I spent a hefty amount of time in the Bronx.
As was I, my friend.
I saw consistently, on multiple occasions, people beating up phone booths.
I've seen this. Not once, not thrice, not fucking deck tithe or whatever 10 times is.
A myriad of occasions.
Okay. I grew up in a Bronx.
And I definitely must have lived in the better
Because I lived in the West Bronx
Near the Yankee Stadium
So I mean even though that wasn't great
Because I've seen some shit that happened
It didn't make sense
Like I saw some guy
Literally tried to pull a whole cash register out of a store
Run away with it
I watched that happen
And I was just like
Isn't that heavy?
Why is he trying to do that?
They caught him and they beat him
That was just like
They caught him and they beat him
Appropriate price
I saw a dog just walking around
Like it was like a dog that had
been bought by somebody and it was this walk around a street and it was like crossing at like
particularly good times I was like this dog understood this dog understands was you know
was telling me that the guy who stole a man's dog outside of like a bodega yeah he just walked away
with it tied up a German Shepherd outside as you do a puppy German Shepherd oh man like a fucking
fucking Grand Concourse this is the owner this is the owner who tied their dog outside of the
store to go in for yeah and I was just like that's a German Shepherd oh my God I love those
dogs and I was looking at it and I was like waving and as a dumb ass little can you think
dogs understand you're waving.
Like a fucking idiot.
And then this guy walked up in like a weird like lean tab.
Like walked up, looked at the dog, looked around like three times, untied a dog and left with it.
And I was just like, uh.
He sold that dog.
He probably kept it and gave it to his kids.
What do you think?
He's like a like a good father stealing somebody's dog.
Think of it like this, Chris.
Good aspirations.
When you were a little kid, that's like,
Like, that whole two years, the presence is no more.
Like, I got a dog now.
I ain't getting you shit.
We ain't getting no more school clothes.
Your food stipend is going to be limited.
I got you a fucking dog.
Yeah, you know.
I mean, hey, some of the scummiest people on Earth turn out to be good parents, you know, it's kind of weird.
Like, they're just outside.
Because it's like you care for your own and then that's where it stops.
My pack.
That's where it stops.
I don't think.
I don't only bring food for my pack.
That's it's fucking what wolves do.
That's what animals do in the wild.
We're animals, bro.
We're just, we're just, we're just big-brained ones.
Here are those fucking, you know, the wolves and wall street, that's exactly what it is.
Yeah, there you go.
They fucking look out for each other and then fuck everybody else.
Yeah, we're the only, we're the only animal that understands that we're just animals.
It's fucking gross.
Yeah, our conscience is fucking crazy.
I bet like dogs probably think they're really fucking superior.
Well, I think about like the animals because it was like, what about when they're doing stuff?
Because obviously they have to think, right?
They have to think because they do stuff.
But I was having a conversation with people were like, oh, I don't think.
think animals really think and I'm like well they have to
think because they do shit right
it's like the thought comes their head like food survive
you know food pissed shit like there's that thing right
but I was like does it get any deeper than that at all
I think it doesn't get much more deeper than that
I think for mammals I think for
for mammals it does to pat I know
I know elephants I think
have a large range of emotion nuts yeah
I love it's you feel depression isn't that disgusting
they can get really sad talking monkeys a lot of things
yeah apes everything like there was that one
dogs get sad too actually
You're sad as fuck
You ever seen a dog's owner die
And then they'll just be fucking depressed his shit
The dog would just lay next to the dead body
It's sad as it's like this is my person
It's the worst
My food man
And fucking cats will if you die in front of a cat
They'll fucking eat you
They'll eat you like real soon
They'll eat your face like in a moment
Like as soon as they get hungry
As soon as they feel hunger
They'll start eating you
Like a dog will go look for other stuff
For a while before it eats you
It's like the last thing
I'm sorry I'm sorry
And the cat's like
Fucking literally your heart
just beat its last beat.
And then it just fucking tastes you.
You're still like semi-contro.
It'll lick you.
All you see is this cat scraping the face matter off your skull.
It's just like, oh man, what a beautiful fucking kitten.
Oh my God.
I used to love that cat.
And now it's trying to feed on me.
You imagine like almost I have like one of those freak incidents when you like start
passing you pass away for a few moments and you wake up and your cat is in already gnawn on your arm like violently.
You know, you ever see the snuggles.
Get off me.
You ever see the remake of Texas Chainsaw Masker?
I think it was like 2005 or 2006.
The guy got caught and then he's put on the table.
I think there was the same guy that when he was running out in the field
and then he gets his fucking leg cut off and then he gets brought back into the layer
and then like he's trying to hold on to the wall and his fingernails like get pulled off.
And then you know smash cut to him later he's on the table and obviously he see his total fucking forearm.
It's just completely exposed.
And I was like, it looked pretty good for the time.
I was just like, oh my God.
It was like the worst thing I've ever seen in like a horror film because it was so like
It's visceral.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I imagine that like a cat like fucking doing that to you.
Cutting you open what is cause.
Popping one little fucking claw cutting off the arm.
Trimbing the fat a little bit.
It takes a scalpel out.
It's not.
Seeing really convincing special effects like that is one of, is really like, is really off-putting.
Yeah.
It sticks.
Yeah.
It's like those.
It's like somebody can describe something to you with just like a word, you know, or like a few words and you just feel like, you recoil like a hangnail that like peels off like forever.
I don't know what I mean.
And then you like recoil a little bit because it's like you know exactly what the already fucking all over you.
It just peels you down like a fucking orange.
Yeah, exactly like an orange.
It's fucked up.
That's hilarious.
Or like those like one sentence scary stories or whatever the fuck.
It hurts.
Why?
That's not a scary story.
That's not a scary story.
That's a man in a hospital.
begging begging to be sent home
I don't know
Where do people
What do you mean to home?
I thought you meant home like the after realm
Not like home
No
It was like one of those
I used to be really into those like scary
Like scary shit like horror
I was into horror for a really long time
And then instantly it like faded
I was like oh I don't get a shit about this movie
Horror faded for me for apparent activity
That made me like not horrified anymore
Because I was just like
Because like that home movie like
The whole paranormal series, like they start doing shit to like prevent themselves from getting like, oh my God, this is weird things happening.
Let's set up cameras.
And then they always halfway through stop checking the cameras.
And I'm like, why?
If you wake up in your house and you get thrown across the room by, you know, nothing.
Maybe you should check every camera.
Maybe you should get away from the house for a little bit.
Check every camera in broad daylight outside.
Yeah.
Or just start sun chasing.
Start chasing the sun.
But then there's no movie.
I mean, yeah
But see, I agree
I agree with you though
I agree with you though
I don't know
The thing that frustrates me
About horror movies
That I think
That I think horror video games
Actually do a great job
At remedying
Is the fact that like every character
Like I can't be afraid
If every main character
Is making decisions
That I wouldn't make
Like oh they're all making
The stupidest decisions
I remember there was this one movie
I can't remember
What the fuck it was called
It was like some infection
I think it was like a zombie
Or infected thing
And this lady walks in
to a room
and she sees a crib, right?
And it's like, oh, this reminds me of my
daughter that died or whatever, and she walks
towards it slowly,
not looking anywhere, doesn't check behind the
fucking door that she just kicked open,
doesn't check the corners of the room, just walks
up to the crib, and like, I missed my
baby, ah!
And then immediately gnawed on.
Like, immediately, like, that wouldn't happen to me.
I'm not fucking retarded. I wouldn't
be that woman, you know?
But a game, a horror game, still
fuck with me. Because that's every time
I fuck up in a horror game, that's me.
That's like my decision. Yeah.
That got me in this fucking mess. It's like, it's
way more terrifying to me.
That's why I've always wondered. I've been telling a Chris about this
a lot. This is like an idea I really have. You've been telling this
to who? You. Because I wanted to
I'm right here. I wanted to see a moot.
I was trying to let the people that are going to
be listening to us know about it. Oh, good.
Good job. Good idea.
I'll boil your teeth. You shut the fuck up.
That's just unnecessary. I'll steal your bones.
Oh shit.
All right, what are you saying?
So I want to make a, I want to have a movie created where there's this kid that like all the friends go and they get involved in like something like, oh, we're going to go to this haunted house.
I heard there may be a demon there, blah, blah.
And one kid just says no out of the friend group.
So the movie progresses as through his eye seeing all this shit happens and he's adamantly staying away from that friend group.
Like adamantly.
So it's just a kid who goes with a rag tag group of misfits to a haunted house.
No, no, no.
So they go up to a haunted house.
They're like, let's go.
And one kid's like, nah.
And then he goes home.
And then he just has a normal day at school.
And then he gets a call the next day.
All your friends are dead.
He's like, oh, fuck.
The friends are acting weird.
Two people go missing.
And then there's just the fallout of them going in.
But it's through his eyes.
And he's just like, I'm glad it and go there.
Like, oh, mom, hey, what happened to Jim?
Oh, they found him eviscerated in the old cellar building last night.
Yeah, he was just ripped open.
You think that would be the first thing, like somebody's good friend would say?
They'd be like, oh, man.
I'm glad I'm not, I'm glad I'm not my best friend.
No, I think, I think he would just be like, he would just, I want to adamantly not want to get involved.
Like they're like, hey man, this is acting really weird.
Can you come over and help me out?
Nah, I can't.
No.
Because I remember there was one time where my, one of my, my best friend, best friend from New York, he was like, hey, dude, I'm hearing weird noises downstairs in my house, bro.
Like, dude, I don't know what's going on, bro.
Come over.
Help me checking this out.
And I literally said, I'm sorry, dude.
I love you to death, but I'm not, I'm not going to come over.
Why would you?
So you can die.
That was in upstate New York too.
Coming over is not easy.
Oh, no.
But I lived in a developer, remember?
So, like, was off outside?
Oh, so you could walk.
I could have walked there.
I could have very much so walked there.
Yeah, walked out there at night while somebody's creeping around in this person's house.
Fuck that.
I'm like, I'm sorry, bro.
I got nothing but love for you, man.
I hope you do good.
And then two days later, I texted him was like, yo, Brian, you still good, bro?
And he was like, yeah, man, you dick.
Like, it was my dad, but like, you could have just came over and helped me.
No, no.
No.
No.
No, fuck that.
And that's when I realized I'm a survivor.
At that moment, I realized that I was built to live through horror movies.
Because I just said, no, my best friend, I damned him to death.
That's pretty good.
That's a true friendship.
What is the point of both of you dying?
I think about that.
Like, what is the point?
If something fucked up is actually there, what is the point?
Oh, maybe you're going to have a chance to fight it off or whatever.
No, if it's something really menacing, you're both going to die.
If it's something that doesn't make sense to me, I don't know how to fight.
it because it doesn't make sense.
So from that moment on, I'm just trying to escape.
So if it's like a poltergeist or something?
I'm like, I don't know where you are.
Yeah, you're fucked.
What if it's just a burglar with a gun?
What is that?
It's still, that's even worse.
That's worse than a poltergeys.
I mean, a poltergeist is bad mentally, but a burglar with a gun is like, this is real.
It's not that bad mentally.
I think I've steled myself to any kind of mental distress.
Because I, I've been, I've been experimenting with this, right?
I don't know if you know.
I don't know if I've told you this.
I tweeted about it once.
I've been experimenting with trying to will myself into a state of sleep paralysis.
Because everybody that I know who's experienced sleep paralysis tells me that they see a little demon walking around or like sitting on their chest.
It's like a little demon with a white face is what I've heard from most people consistently for some reason.
I'm like, I'm really curious about this demon.
I haven't been scared in a long time.
I haven't had like all my nightmares nowadays are like real things.
It's like, oh no, I'm going to disappoint my loved ones.
Oh no, I'm on the street and no money.
nightmares. When I was a kid, my nightmares were like
banshees and like spider demons, you know, like shit like that, horrifying
shit. But now it's like, oh, that's just cool to me now.
So I'm curious if a demon would show up for me because
I'm not afraid of that kind of thing.
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with
Sophia Bush. Check out this special moment
we did on our show, presented by eBay.
There's a different kind of care that comes with letting something
meaningful go, especially when it has a story attached to it.
When you pass something on, you want to know it's being handled with respect.
I took part in my first ever giant charity sale, and I was able to auction several items from my personal
closet on eBay. Some of them were truly one-of-a-kind pieces connected to specific moments,
TV sets, or from personal collections. One of the things I loved the most about doing this with
eBay is there was a way for everyone to shop. Sure, people who wanted a pair of my jeans could get them,
but people who might be a different size than me could buy accessories.
If you're a size eight, you're lucky, because that's my shoe size.
They could do purses, jewelry, all sorts of things.
Some people needed winterwear, some people wanted summer dresses.
It wound up being so much fun.

eBay, things people love.
I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man.
Tell us who you are and what you do.
I'm Dan Morgan.
I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan,
which is America's largest injury law firm.
That's pretty awesome.
I think I saw Billboard of years recently that said $20 billion.
$20 billion is an insane number.
Yeah, $20 billion recovered.
It's actually, I think, somewhere north,
probably closer to 22, 23 after this year.
And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows.
So the number will hopefully keep.
Keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on.
Awesome.
So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan?
What would I do if I got into an accident?
Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open, our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24-7, 365.
Wow. Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Lawfram, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit for the people.com for an office near you.
But I've been trying to do it, and I have had no luck yet.
I imagine a tax auditor comes now.
I'm sorry, man, I have to take everything.
That's just attention to the tax guy?
Fuck.
You're being audited.
That's the worst.
No, I pay my taxes.
For me, I see paralysis, right?
I suppose, but I've never experienced anything abnormal.
I just like, oh, I'm trying to wake up and I can't.
Well, the thing is it's, well, the whole thing with it is that your body, it's
basically, it's the reverse of what your body does when it's asleep.
Yeah.
Basically, it's like when you're dreaming, your brain is still active, right?
But your body shuts down to make sure you don't act out your dreams.
it's the same thing, but you're conscious of it.
So you're dreaming while you're awake and you can't move.
Like that's what it is.
And a lot of people see the same thing.
They see this demon.
I never saw anything.
I saw one thing.
I managed to do it successfully twice.
The second time I didn't see anything.
The first time I was like leaned over on my side,
but I saw like a little thing like cringing over to my bed and singing.
And I was like, but my glasses were off so I couldn't see it.
It was like out of focus.
I was like, oh, no, I want to see this.
And then I woke up and I disappeared.
And I was so sad.
Do you think that kind of like how the grays came about?
Oh, like the aliens?
Yeah.
Do you think it's kind of one of those situations where people keep seeing the demons
because somebody saw a demon and then other people are manifesting it out because they heard about a demon?
Yeah, probably.
I think so.
I definitely psychological.
Is it the fact that I don't see shit because I've never seen shit.
And when I heard about people seeing stuff, I was like, I've never seen that.
That's not real.
Yeah.
Now everybody sees fucking aliens.
I just wake up and I'm like, oh, come on, body.
Next time listen to me when I want to wake up and I go back to sleep.
That's weird.
I don't have any problem sleeping at all.
You've never had sleep paralysis?
Nothing.
I don't even know how, I've never even had a lucid dream.
I've never anything like that.
Oh, that sucks.
Lucid dreams are fun.
I've only had them like a handful of times.
I want to have like the mountains of fucking pussy like on top of me.
I'll just just make it as ridiculous as possible.
This is the best one.
I had a lucid dream where I was like running away from planes crashing and I was like
rolling out the way.
It was like temple.
run, but like planes or crashing
and it was the coolest shit ever.
I was like, wow, it was awesome.
I had a Spider-Man dream.
And I fell off my bed.
I had a Spider-Man dream recently
and it was awesome.
It's like, it makes me like not like
the game, actually.
It's like it feels so much better to actually do that shit in your brain.
Do you trip in your dreams?
Yes.
I trip.
No, trip means when the dreams over, in it?
No, no.
Well, no, what happens, well, I guess.
But like, what happens is like sometimes I'll like,
I'll like
I'll like almost lose my balance
in my dream and like I'll psych myself out in the real world
and I'll like have like a like I got to catch my balance
type reaction and I'll wake up and I'm like what the fuck
I just tripped I just tripped while asleep
Yeah
What happened to me is I've done that and I felt myself move externally
In the real world
And I'm like this felt this movement felt wrong
What's going on and everything starts coming up
It's like oh no the world my world's falling apart
So you've never had a lucid dream
That's fascinating to me
wanted to. I would love to
be able to control what the hell is going on.
You've never had, well,
like, it's not even like... Have you ever been aware that you were in a dream?
No, that's what I'm talking about. So you've never done the thing
where it's like you're slapping yourself or you're like pinching your cheeks to
make sure. My dreams are always like,
I don't know. A lot of times I think it's fucking real and I wake up and I'm like, oh shit.
You know, um, and some, because sometimes the dreams are cool. Sometimes they're so
disappointing like, okay, I just moved. My old, my old house, my room is, was connected to
the kitchen, which I,
fucking hated. It's because I can always hear people in the kitchen cooking or whatever. And then I moved to my new room, which is it's fucking amazing. And it's not connected to the kitchen at all. But I dreamed that it was fucking connected to the kitchen. And I was pissed off in my dream. And I woke up pissed off. I was fucking mad. And I was like, wait, that was a fucking dream. Like it, it just feels real. Usually when I dream, I don't have extremely wacky dreams either. They're very mundane. When I used to work like regular jobs,
I would dream about working and then I'd want to kill myself because I would have to wake up and do exactly what I was just dreaming.
Those are the fucking worst thing.
I had a dream.
I have, yeah, I have pretty mundane dreams nowadays.
Like every nightmen, every so often I'll have a nightmare.
But then I'll be like, I don't dream anymore.
It's just black now.
It's just dark.
It's just dark.
It's just black and sometimes I notice it's dark.
And I'm like, shit, it's dark as fucking here.
I had a dream that I woke up.
I had a dream that I woke up in my bed at night and my back really hurt.
And I was like, oh, man, this is, oh, my back really hurts.
and I woke up and I was fine
but that was the whole fucking dream
I definitely had like weird like I was just in
like a perpetual state of like
time warping pain because it was just like
a moment like I was asleep
you ever have these things where it's like
when I was a kid I used to have this
I only happened to me twice
but like I went to
I would lie in my bed
I would blink and it would be
fucking daytime yeah that shit's scary
I felt like I had no rest
convinced I was abducted
because that's
Not normal.
Yeah.
That happened to me.
One time I literally like I, like when I was like maybe 11, I put my sheet over my head and then
moved it and it was daytime.
And I was like, this can't be possible.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
So that shit happens to people.
Yeah, because that's happened to me before too.
So I guess it happens to a lot of people, which is fucking crazy.
Yeah.
Like you just lose time in a blink of an eye, like literally because that's happened to me
too.
And what about this one?
This is the one that trip me out that a lot of people, I guess people was called like kind
of deja vu.
type of intuitive thing.
But this one's the one like where it's the kind where you dream shit and it happens.
And I'm not talking about a basic thing like, oh, you know, you're driving in a car and then you see
this one thing.
And they're like, oh, I dream this.
Like, well, yeah, eventually that was going to happen to you.
But very like specific things.
Because I'll never forget.
I was probably like 10 years old or something in this private school.
I dreamed that this white girl with a yellow shirt was chasing me around my classroom.
And the next fucking day, this girl Whitney Brown
And this Boys and Girls Club yellow shirt
Started chasing me around because she was just being all a little girl
Like, oh, I love you and I'm like, get away from me
And then I was like, the fuck I dream I literally just dream this
Is that a common thing?
I've talked to enough people to where they said they happen to them
Now I'm like, show me some like tell me some anecdotes
Because this happens to me a lot
And I was like I thought I was special
But then other people are like
I thought I was the chosen
For me it's like I've been
of dream things where like
this can't be real or like this can't be real
and then like something close to it happens
and I'm just like that's that's too close
I have precognition on my deity
I need to ascend
it's not precognition
it's not it is it's not it is it's your brain
fucking with you it's just relative moments
that are similarities all coming together and your brain
assuming that you've remembered it is essentially
deja vu but like which which
deja vu is another thing right it's like
you this goes again
back to the fucking president thing
You can be convinced
That you have predicted things because your brain tricks you into thinking that
Yeah, very true
You think you're capable of like handling the nuclear codes
Your brain is susceptible to illusion
By from itself
That's ridiculous
No man, trips me out like I'm not
Well it's like imagine you wake up in the middle of night
And you're like convinced like oh shit fucking Korea started some bullshit
I'm gonna fuck them now
You go you type in the launch
code to like, wait a minute.
I was asleep because I have blue pajamas on instead of green ones.
And you just started a war.
There you go.
I think there's a bit more checks and balances.
I don't think the president could just wake up in a dream like haze.
I wouldn't be surprised if the president has like people outside of his door to, like, kill him if that happens.
If you go, like, there's like a signal that's like one of those sleep.
agents.
Yeah.
You know?
Because he wakes up and says like,
Dosvidonia or whatever the fuck,
whatever a Russian says.
And he was like,
oh,
yes,
kill.
I mean,
he blows a silent whistle.
I must launch nuclear codes.
You know,
it actually kind of,
I felt a little uneasy with what happened in Hawaii,
where that guy pressed the wrong button.
And then it was like,
this isn't a drill,
like an ICBM's coming to fuck us up.
You remember that?
Yeah,
yeah.
That was,
that really,
that was crazy.
I was like, I thought that it was, there were way more fail safes than just to press the wrong button.
What would they do?
You don't remember this?
There was a few months ago.
I think it was, uh, was it like April-ish?
It was like, yeah, it was either the beginning of the summer or before or whatever.
It was like spring or winter.
Like some guy that was supposed to just do a test, right?
Like when you, when you do like test, this is the test, he pressed the wrong button where it's like this is not a test.
And then it went out to everyone's cell phone in Hawaii.
Like an ICBM is heading on the way.
You know, you're fucked.
This is not a test.
An ice fucking CBM, an intercontinental ballistic missile.
Yeah, so a bunch of people...
Flocked they were going to die.
And there was a story of this guy that has, you know, a kit to...
How big is the explosion?
Like big?
For an ICBM?
Yeah.
It's enough for Hawaii.
Yeah, that would have...
That would have fucked Hawaii.
Hawaii's islands.
Volcanic.
Hawaii is volcanic islands that is about to be struck by an explosive.
That's not a good...
Any amount of explosives on Hawaii is probably a bad amount.
Yeah, they would have been, they would have been fucked.
And like there's people saying that, like there's a guy who's like, what do I do?
My, I think it was like his sons or her son and daughter were about an hour apart in different directions.
You gotta choose.
And that he was in that awkward situation.
Like who the fuck do I go spend my last moments with?
I mean, I like my son more, but my daughter is going to be more of a better person.
But she's going to die right now.
Like, yeah.
So do I go hang out to one I like more?
And what about my mom?
I love my mom more than my kids.
I don't know.
Dang.
There's checks and balances at that moment.
You just got to go to sleep.
I was asleep, sorry.
But I will say,
I will say maybe that guy,
the guy that screwed up,
maybe he's a genius and like a love guru
because I imagine after that happened,
a bunch of people like reconciled their differences.
I bet there was a bunch of people coming together and banging.
They did say there was a huge spike.
And this is true.
and Pornhub, there was a major
spike after that in Hawaii. That's hilarious.
Yeah, because a bunch of people were just like, yeah,
this is great and they're all like, you know,
it's probably exhilarated.

This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress
with Sophia Bush, check out this special moment we did on our show presented by eBay.
When I was living in Chicago, I took part in my first ever giant charity sale,
and I was able to auction several items from my personal closet on eBay.
They were items that marked huge moments in my life and in my career,
and though I was ready to pass them along,
I also wanted to make sure they were going to someone who would love them.
One of the things I loved the most about doing this with eBay is there was a way for everyone to shop.
It wound up being so much fun to see where each and every item was going, where it was going to be loved.
And in passing items along like that, authenticity really matters to the person who's getting them.
That's why I love eBay's authenticity guarantee.
They weren't just listing my items.
They were verifying them, making sure something was genuinely from where it claimed to be, in this case, my closet.
To listen to more, check out the full episode wherever you get your podcasts.
Find what you love, sell what you don't.
eBay, things people love.
I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man.
Tell us who you are and what you do.
I'm Dan Morgan.
I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm.

And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows, so the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on.

Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open, our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24 7, 365.
Wow. Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan,
America's Large Injury Law Firm,
thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit for the people.com for an office near you.
This is it.
I don't care.
This is it.
I should just, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's finally do it.
And then they're fine and they're like,
oh no.
The man upstairs is going to be so mad.
The church has like a line for confession.
It's like going around the church.
Like, someone's in a water that's an island.
More people than are.
on the continent of, or on the island of Hawaii.
It's like, what are you doing here, sir?
Which is physically impossible by the way.
I'm from Michigan, sir, and I got to talk about some stuff.
Please listen to me.
I'm from Michigan.
Oh, my God.
No, it isn't saying that, like, that, that message went out with such a little fail saves.
Yeah.
It's insane that, like, did the missile come?
No, they got rid of right?
But I guess you'd want a warning to be really quick and easy to send out to people.
You know what I mean?
I guess that there is.
Make a lot of noise?
I mean, I feel like they should know.
What do you mean?
Like, it was like, what's that mean?
Like, the message is like it.
Or was it like, like.
Yeah, I feel like it was probably like an Amber Alert.
I imagine it was like that.
And which we know Amble Alerts are very easy to receive and get them multiple times.
Which is kind of sad, but at the same time it's annoying, right?
Amber Alert turned insane.
It's like, what the fuck?
Yeah.
So it's, but yeah, I was just like, oh, okay.
This lets me know that it's probably not that secure, especially things as far.
as nuclear launch codes and all this shit,
it might be simpler to activate than we've imagined.
If sending out something like that,
that is completely like a doomsday thing to a lot of people,
is that simple to accidentally fucking do.
I've realized that anything could be messed up
and there's nothing promised because this planet is fucked as a whole.
Humans are just animals and that are just smarter.
We're just smarter, we're just smarter apes.
That's it.
Yeah, yeah.
We're just apes that build houses instead of climbing trees and living them.
I think the octopus is on its way.
They got some.
There's something about those things that I really...
They're alien.
They look like aliens to me.
I just don't trust them.
That's a theory.
They have no bones, which is already a problem.
Everything about them looks disgusting to me.
They have no bones and they're intelligent,
which is already better than a person.
Yeah.
Because like, what the fuck?
The amount of stories I've heard of the shit that they've done is phenomenal.
You're talking about them like it's like that cult, the Kool-Aid,
called the stories that I've heard that the octopo about the octopuses in what they have done
the david caress of octopi oh it was a top it top it top is that the plural it's a bunch of
them what do you mean octopodes octopaties are you serious why i'm being there's like a bunch i just
call octopi because yeah like out out well i'll say algae uh cacti octopi yeah that makes
sense some people some people argue and say that it's cactuses and not cacti i don't know
i've heard both i've heard bo i
heard both but I heard both.
I think Cactuses is wrong.
It just sounds wrong.
Yeah,
it sounds like saying fishes,
you know,
like it sounds fucking stupid.
I thought that was the way.
Dearses.
Dearses.
Dearses.
Yo,
I saw like,
I got really unnecessarily mad earlier today
because I saw some,
like a picture of like a cute deer
and somebody was like,
how beautiful.
But they're like,
where we're from?
They're pests.
Everywhere.
They're like rats.
Everywhere.
Like,
you hit them with a car.
And as long as you're not dead,
you're pretty happy about it.
You're like, oh, man.
I hate when there's a bunch of them, and they don't move.
There's been times where there's like a little shortcut by where I used to live,
and I would try to walk by, and there'd be like a bunch of them,
and I'd be like, oh, my fucking God, I wish my dog could kill you.
I wish I could send my dog to fucking hunt you.
Our roommate here, Jalen.
He's terrified of deer, like deeply, actually.
Like, he has, like, everybody here has, like, a weird fear.
Like, Joe's afraid of windmills.
I'm afraid of windmills.
That's relatively normal.
Nah, it's like it's weird that you're afraid of clowns still, but that's a more common thing than fucking windmills and deer
What happens is I have exposed stuff to clowns I adamantly like I just don't want to I don't respect them
I don't respect them as living creatures so to me this like these things are garbage
So I don't want to be around them you guys everything about you makes me sick
You're fucking ghostly pale faces your fucking dumb ass wigs your stupid side shoes you're fucking fully clothes
Everything about them just makes me fucking sick
sick I want to
I fucking hate them
so like I just stay away from them
as adamantly as possible
that is fair
it's just it's prejudice
towards them
it's like real hatred
like I want them gone
okay
I want them extinguished
all right
but
Jesus Christ
that was the
Jesus
the passion
that's a lot of passion
that's more passion
than I've heard in years
that was
pharicon
esk
anger
not like
but that's a relatively
common fear. What is this
windmill thing and why? Our roommate
Joe, for those of you, he's not
in video super often. He's the
white one. He's the actual white one. He's the white guy in our video
sometimes. He's the one racist guy that lives here. Yeah, the one
automatically racist. Yeah. Yeah.
He's afraid of windmills. Like those, you know
the big turbine windmills, the white ones
that you see in like the fields in Idaho or whatever the fuck? In the middle.
Yeah, in the Midwest. So, I guess
how he described it was
when they were driving from New York to L.A.,
he woke up in the middle of the trip
while the other guy was driving,
surrounded by windmills,
and for some reason that terrified him,
and to this day he's afraid of them.
In his words, he says,
they're up to something,
and I don't believe he's exaggerating.
I don't believe it's a bit.
I don't believe it's a joke.
I think he genuinely thinks there's something deeply up
with windmills are like the totems
that are going to bring the devil
to the planet. Is he possibly
a fan of InfoWars? No.
He's very apolitical, actually. I can't think of a single
time he's ever mentioned anything even a remotely political
or even cared about it. Yeah. Well, I don't even think he knows what InfoWars is.
I don't think he knows who Alex Jones is. It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't know who Trump is,
to be honest. Oh, well, okay, Matt. It honestly wouldn't surprise me.
Joe's a very linear human. Very straightforward. Very straightforward.
I think you need to interview him about this windmill thing.
I might.
We might have him on.
When we don't have, like, guests, we might just, like, cycle in roommates.
Yeah, what is?
Because I still know he woke up, and then there were windmills in years.
He must have had, like, a, I think he had, like, a nightmare.
And then he woke up and, like, was surrounded by shit that he's never seen before.
And it tripped him out and it just, like, scarred him.
It's like, Jalen, like, our roommate Jailenel, he's, when we were driving across the country,
we made that same exact trip, and we pulled over, is the true story.
It was just sorry, we pulled over in Kansas or like, it was one of the desolate ones.
I can't remember.
It was like, it might have been like really North Texas up where like that little square is.
Yeah, I'm Ruloo.
Yeah, yeah.
So I think we pulled over there because I was driving for ages and I'm going to be real.
Like my balls were hurting.
Like I was like sitting down for so fucking long.
I was like, this hurt.
I need to stand up.
Yeah.
I need to, we need to just stand and be okay for a little bit.
So we pulled over.
There's no light pollution at all.
out there, right?
So you could see the fucking cosmos.
Yeah.
I get out, I stretch,
Jalen gets out,
looks up,
Jalen is black guy
for those of you don't know.
It's like his thing.
But he looks up at the stars,
freaks the fuck out,
screams,
jumps back into the car,
I'm fine.
Let's just,
let's just,
let's keep going.
I'm like,
okay.
Oh,
it was,
he's like afraid of the cosmos.
Have you ever looked up at the sky
where there's nothing stopping you
from just seeing everything?
It's beautiful.
It's fucking breathtaking.
It's breathtaking.
but it's also like oh my god
there's so much more out there he like
he described it to me and it kind of made sense
where he was like he described
to me kind of like being in the middle of the ocean
being surrounded by just this vast
just vast nothingness
which I can agree like I wouldn't want to be in the middle
of the ocean yet that would terrify the fuck out of me
but that would terrify me because
I'm not supposed to be in the ocean yeah
we're on ground
everything's fine it's just like
the sky and it's like beautiful and you can see all
the stars that you never get to see and it's like it's cool
It's a really cool thing to see, but he was like freaked out.
He's also terrified deeply of deer.
I remember once I was, well, I remember once I was, he lived, uh, him and Joe actually
lived like pretty much like up the block for each other.
It was like maybe like a three minute walk.
Yeah.
We were walking up from Joe's house to his house and it was nighttime and the spotlight
outside of his house, you know, like the street light.
It was like shining down on his, on his driveway and there were like seven deer just like
standing out in front of his house.
house and then they turned on all of them turned in unison and looked at us and he was like let's
just go back let's just go back to joe's i'm going to sleep at joe's he stayed there he didn't go
home because there were deer in front of his house what deers are weird man they're gross i don't like
because their eyes they have soulless eyes yeah they're just completely yeah look at them it's like
oh my god is it looking at me or is looking at like my vessel like does it want to take my my cage
doesn't want to wear me or something like that is it disgusting they're really dead they're really
dead eyed and
I don't know.
That's funny.
Like, it is, you know, being California, I'm so not, like, I'm the person that
see the deer, and I think it's fucking adorable because I never see them, ever.
There's coyotes out here.
I haven't seen him.
I saw a coyote in the face.
Like, that's how I told by coyotes.
Yo, I was walking.
I was at random Chipotle and, like, Glendale, California one time, and I was walking across
the street, and I saw a coyote almost get hit by her car.
But the coyote, an instant moved so fast.
that it was unbelievable.
It almost got by the car and it kind of just stopped time
and said, I need to meet not here.
And it just zipped across the street.
And I was just like, I've never seen it.
I've seen videos of them.
Like, I've never seen one in person.
I've never seen an in-person animal move that fast.
Like, I've seen animals move fast on TV.
I've seen cheetahs fly on TV before.
Yeah.
But, like, I, that animal moves so quick that I was just in awe staring at it.
I was just like, oh, my goodness, that speed is remarkable.
I don't like, I don't like raccoons.
because of the way they gallivant.
I don't like how they can stand up and walk to.
They have people hands, man.
They do have people hands, which is adorable and cute.
But they also like gallivant in like a really weird way.
They skip.
Yeah, the little.
It's really awkward.
Rodents are weird.
Rodents are weird in general.
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with Sophia Bush.
Check out this special moment we did on our show presented by eBay.
When I was living in Chicago, I took part in my first ever.
giant charity sale and I was able to auction several items from my personal closet on eBay.
They were items that marked huge moments in my life and in my career.
And though I was ready to pass them along, I also wanted to make sure they were going to someone
who would love them.
One of the things I loved the most about doing this with eBay is there was a way for everyone
to shop.
It wound up being so much fun to see where each and every item was going, where it was going to be
loved. And in passing items along like that, authenticity really matters to the person who's getting
them. That's why I love eBay's authenticity guarantee. They weren't just listing my items. They
were verifying them, making sure something was genuinely from where it claimed to be, in this case,
my closet. To listen to more, check out the full episode wherever you get your podcasts. Find what you
love, sell what you don't. eBay, things people love. I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man.
Tell us who you are and what you do.
I'm Dan Morgan.
I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan and Morgan,
which is America's largest injury law firm.
That's pretty awesome.
I think I saw Billboard of yours recently that said 20 billion one.
20 million is an insane number.
Yeah, 20 billion recovered.
It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year.
And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows.
so the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on.
Awesome.
So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan?
What would I do if I got into an accident?
Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open, our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24-7, 365.
Wow.
Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Lawfirm, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit forethepeople.com for an office near you.
I don't know if otters are rodents exactly.
Are raccoons?
Absolutely.
Yeah, what else would you consider them?
What do they're not?
They're not.
I never thought about it, but like I just don't.
I never thought it, looked at a raccoon and thought rat.
You know what I mean?
I never thought like ferret.
But I think you kind of have to classify them as that.
I guess they are rodents.
So like I was watching.
Yeah, because I guess rats have like people hands too.
Yeah, actually.
I was watching an otter stood up and like said noises to its human like companion
and then walked the way.
And I was like, what the fuck did I just see?
What did I just see?
He just confessed.
It did like a weird, like, fucking aquatic mammal sound.
And then just fucking walked out the room.
And I was like, did that thing just complain?
Did it find displeased and something?
And then reported it?
My favorite video on the internet is that video of the guy throwing the raccoon down the stairs?
Oh, dude, he fucking.
There's this video of a raccoon, like fucking this guy,
fucking with this guy's dog outside of his apartment or whatever.
Was he Ozzy?
I feel like Australians would do that.
It does seem like an Australian.
Like that guy who like sucker punch the kangaroo.
It was so fucking disrespectful.
That was so good.
It was so disrespectful.
He didn't have to hit a kangaroo.
Kangaroos are like,
dude that kangaroo was fucking with his dog.
You're talking about that one?
Oh, what?
Was it fucking with his dog?
There was a kangaroo that was fucking with this dude's dog.
And he came up and he sucks the kangaroo in the face.
Yeah, yeah.
I saw a video of a kangaroo outside of a window, like outside of a door.
And a guy yelling and it kicked the door and shattered it.
And I was like, fuck.
I was like, fuck, stop yelling at that thing.
Now they have free range to your house.
Not thinking it's coming your home.
Kangaroos are like, they're kind of like
They're like
How how
How deer are to people outside of New York
Or how kangaroos are to like people outside of Australia
Like they're actually like
I think Australians hate him
I'm pretty sure like they don't like him
Like they constantly jumping in front of cars
They have kicks that could like
Decimate a human
They can like knock over cars
If they just keep kicking a car
They also have talons which I didn't know
Yeah
They could fucking skewer you
Which is okay
And they punch people do.
Like they're over.
They're buffed, yeah.
They're buffed, they're disgustingly buffed.
Like a kangaroo is more fit than I will ever be.
Any given kangaroo.
A kangaroo is as fit as Joe about.
They're like that kind of level of like muscle.
Yeah.
Just natural.
That's disgusting.
Like if they wanted to.
And they birth things.
They birth things.
And then they just peel part of their stomach open and put them in there to finish.
To finish growing because they burr-
They birth too early.
Marsupials are fucked.
Fucking dude.
Australia is a fucking just a death trap.
It's a hellscape.
Australia is literally the idea of like,
if you're too many humans on this planet,
we need to clear Australia
and it's put the ones that don't equate over there.
And if they survive,
maybe a year when we come to drop the next batch off,
they're still there,
you guys have earned your right to live in society.
You guys are true warriors.
You will be Earth's army.
Call the Australians.
Jesus Christ.
I like it.
There are bugs that I kill people.
There are snakes that I kill people.
Yeah.
There is air there that kills people.
There are rodents that kill people.
They are what?
Rodents?
I think you said,
I think you said rotists.
Rodents.
Or something for a thing.
I was like, what the fuck is that?
What's a rodis?
Every animal there is just everything there is built to take over.
Yeah.
Take over.
If Australia ever somehow shifted into the bottom of Asia,
they would disinfect it and they would take over.
It's like a,
plague. Well, there's a new
fucking breed of mosquito that's here from South America now
in Southern California. Oh, it's awesome.
Which is epic because it was like the only thing
that I, the only thing that I liked about
SoCal was the fact that I didn't have to deal
with mosquitoes, I didn't have to deal with fucking
these dumb insects all the time. You gotta deal
with roaches, whatever. I can deal with roaches
and like spiders and shit.
I don't like flying things that can
steal my blood from me.
Without my fucking permission.
And now they're here.
I mean, we have, so they'll probably die out.
Closer to...
They're going to die real soon.
Closer to where I live in Orange County.
We have a problem with them.
We like to come around for a while.
They're carrying this West Nile virus.
That would kill old people.
So that was kind of nice.
But I'm just glad that
as somebody who enjoys like a burger
every once in a while, there's a tick
that's prevalent in the south
and in the east.
That if it bites you,
it'll infect you with a virus or whatever
that makes you.
sick when you eat red meat.
That's fucking. You can't eat fucking meat anymore.
You can't eat red meat. You can eat poultry.
Maybe that's where the vegans came from.
Maybe.
They all got bit by this tick.
I like kale.
Their bones like shifting crack into place.
It's like somebody's like squeezing a plastic water bottle.
They're like contorting on the ground.
They're just looking for a kale shake.
It's like, hey Johnny, what's going on?
Man, you've been you've been vibrating on the floor for a good half an hour.
now you good?
I want leafy greens.
Immediately,
immediately they change all their
usernames to like
vegan something,
vegan warrior fucking 88.
They start doing cross-sat too
and it's like,
oh my God,
they descended.
They stand up,
they stand up after they're done
convulsing on the floor.
I have to tell everyone
about this.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, no,
I don't know.
The whole,
I don't like insects.
They're fucking awful.
You remember the,
did you have to deal
with stink bugs?
Oh yeah, in New York.
I killed one and I was so angry.
I was so angry.
I killed one in my room and I was like,
fuck inch.
My dog got up and left.
Yeah,
because now it stinks in there because you killed it.
My dog was like,
you may smell this,
but I really smell this.
I'm getting out of here.
They're the worst.
Have you ever had to deal with those fucking thing?
I don't think they're over here.
You guys are lucky that you're going to deal with those.
Wildlife doesn't exist in this place.
I used,
I had an air conditioner and installed in my room
and I was like,
oh, finally.
We had Central Air in my parents' house upstate, but it didn't reach my room.
Hey, it's Jay Shetty from On Purpose.
Check out the best of a moment we did presented by eBay.
I'd never owned a vintage camera before.
There was something about it that felt almost unnecessary in a world where everything
lives on our phones.
But I wanted to change that.
So I started the hunt for a point-and-shoot camera.
When I finally found the perfect one on eBay, I didn't keep it to myself.
I left it out on a table.
Always within reach, people started picking it up without asking, family, friends, everyone to take a photo of whatever felt important to them in that moment.
There was no editing, no retakes, you took the photo and that was it.
The moment became real right away.
It was about choosing something.
Deciding this matters, even if it came out blurry, the vintage camera belonged to the room, to the moment, to the people in it.
Over time, the photos started to pile up on the fridge, on shelves tucked into books.
Each one a reminder that meaning isn't always planned.
That's what I appreciate about eBay.
It's a place where you can find things that bring people together
and pass along things you no longer need,
so they can become part of someone else's memories.

From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law,
from, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you.
My room was like the last room in the house.
It was like a top corner, right?
It was like a top corner, yeah.
So I got like an air conditioner, like just like a proper wall unit.
Put in the window and I was like, yes.
It's going to be cold in here.
I'm going to make it snow in this bitch.
All right.
I come home one day after.
Stink bugs inside all over.
Like, actually not exaggerating hundreds.
What?
Just in my room.
Hundreds of fucking stink bugs just chilling in my room.
And I was like, I am filled with contempt.
I have never been so angry.
But yeah, how do you, I mean, I don't even know how to process?
I don't even know how to go about that?
How do you think I was?
I was like, I was like 13, like 14 maybe.
I was like, I, all I know right now, I don't even know who I am yet.
But I know, but I know, I don't like this.
I know that this is a situation that I want deeply to not be in.
I hate the cicadas, dude.
Cicadas are cool, though.
They fucking, they bump into you.
If one flies into you, it's, like, you know when a bug crawl, you like, you know, it's like, oh, get that off me.
But when a cicada touches you, you feel like a thumb.
Like someone's thumb.
poked you and you're like what the fuck is that there's no one here there's no one near me what is this
and you feel this rage you fact they're a ghost touching you but it's not is it these big
ass blunt bugs they're really huge they're really there's a fucking flying here and it's
pissing me out they're little stocky boys little stocky little bugs they're really huge
I just like the sound that they make because it like reminds me of like summer they have they
have like a summer sound like they're in the trees and they're like shaking and it's like
ooh this is cool I like this I don't like insect they're fucking but they also come out of
like 17 years or something.
Like they're like once
and once in a while.
Oh,
they're one of those.
They like probably live
on the ground
most of their life
Yeah,
yeah, yeah.
Exactly.
And they emerge.
But so,
but so that's the thing.
It's like cool when that happens
though because it's like,
oh,
it's like a little treat
every now and then.
It's like a, you know.
They're not,
they don't bite you or anything.
They don't like fuck with you.
They don't like fucking grown ass adults.
It's disgusting like you're in fucking down to the hay.
I'm saying it's better than stink.
And mosquitoes and mosquitoes who are constant.
Why are the worst bugs like
there's so many of them?
They think about it.
Like, there's bugs that people, I think, universally enjoy, like butterflies, dragonflies.
I don't like butterflies at all.
I love butterflies.
Who the fuck doesn't like butterflies?
They're just the matter with you.
Because they trick people.
They're just as ugly.
They're just as disgusting as any other insect.
But they have a nice little art thing on them.
It's like an art student.
How is this art student?
That's kind of the point of liking something.
It looks nice, right?
No.
It's aesthetically pleasing as long as it doesn't get close to you.
Even cataculars are kind of cute.
I like seeing, I like seeing butterflies.
at a reasonable distance
Right?
Do you
Do they attack you?
I don't...
They land on you and they leave.
Yeah.
If I landed on my hand
It was there for like a minute
I was like wow.
That or a fucking ladybug
I just don't like that they lie
They're just liars.
You don't like ladybugs?
No I'm just saying...
No, I don't like ladybugs.
I don't like ladybugs.
They're fucking nice dude.
They're also pets.
I had to deal with them all the fucking time.
Oh yeah they like they show up.
That's true they will eat all your shit too.
Yeah.
Early spring no show up and they'll move in.
The only bugs I like it's not even an insect.
It's just a spider.
Because they eat all the other ones
That's my justification for it
No, I like some spiders
That ones that actually like to just chill in the corner
Yeah, yeah
Not like those camel spiders
That like scoop divets out of your face
Yeah
And like
I once had a fucking one
Huh?
What?
You don't know about camel spiders?
No!
So camel spiders
They're an interesting breed
Right
Because what they'll do is
This is like a desert type deal
Like my uh
My cousins had to deal with them in the military
When they would camp out in like desert areas
No
They crawl on you.
They're pretty big.
They crawl on you.
And what they do is almost like a vampire bat, how they like scoop.
They scoop the skin out.
They don't like bite you and like suck blood.
They like carve into you a little bit.
And then a little like flesh bowl of blood fills up and then they eat it.
That's what the camel spider does.
But it's bite or it's scoop, I should say.
I don't know how to describe it.
It scoop is like it makes it.
It's like anesthetic.
So you can't feel it.
So sometimes people wake up and their face is gone because a camel spider ate it.
Isn't that beautiful?
Those spiders, I'm not a fan of, just to be clear.
I like house spiders.
Yeah, they're fine.
They won't even bite you.
They'll get on you and be like, oh, my bad.
I must be here.
No way.
Look, there's like, certain spots, like, you know, the daddy long legs, you know.
And they have such small fangs that they can't even bite people.
So they're kind of chill.
Always leave them alone.
There's certain spiders.
If a spider isn't chilling in a web,
then I kill it immediately because they're going to fucking bite you.
You step that line, my friend.
They got stuck.
They got stuck in your fucking room or something that they don't want to be.
And then they're going to get hungry and then they're just going to try you.
You know, and that's what usually happens.
Yeah.
Dude, I once had my mattress out in a shed for a long time because I moved.
And when I came back, this, I don't know, this one spider hitched a right.
ride from somewhere because they don't exist in California at least.
It was probably something that belongs in Australia because it was so big.
I kept seeing these bites on me and they were fucking like very spaced apart.
And I was like, you can see your bone.
I was like, what the fuck is?
This is huge.
And then one day he just got brave and was on my wall.
It's so big.
You can see its eyes.
I was just like, yeah.
I was like, stupid.
What is this?
I have to kill you.
I'm sorry.
It was the worst because I grabbed the fucking broom.
and then just like Spider-Man,
it sensed that I was paying attention to it.
And then I was like,
so then it went like,
before I got too close to it,
it like did that like little spidey sense thing
and then it fell.
And I was just like,
oh my God,
I'm gonna,
it was the scariest thing.
I can't beat this.
It was this big, dude.
It was this big.
That's not okay.
That's pretty fucking big.
And then luckily before it like did anything crazy before like
web slang me or whatever,
it fucking,
I fucking slapped the shit out of it.
And it was so great.
gross, you know, when you see spiders die, but like seeing a big one, just seeing it all, like,
coiled up like that, but, like, actually seeing it?
Yeah, yeah.
There comes a point where a, where an insect is so big that I just kind of, it's a threat.
I just, I don't want to kill this because I'm going to hear it.
Yeah.
You know, it's like, it's not like a cat.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not like a cat where it's like, you know, if you kill a cat, it's a horrifying experience.
I imagine.
Like, that's not a good experience.
The sounds.
Because it's a fucking mammal.
It's going to make noise.
It's going to, it has noticeable bones.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, you feel that shit.
A spider or an insect, you know, it's like you squish it.
It's done.
But like a big spider, you'll hear something.
Something.
And it's like, ooh, I don't fucking, you hear it's like legs like pounding against the ground a little bit.
You hear it like speak nookian or something like that fucking angel speak.
And it's like, what the fuck?
Why did it's what it did you?
You hit it and it's going to, oh.
It is, I'm dying now.
You've killed me.
You'll pay for this.
My kind will come and find you.
Yo, you guys play the first Dark Souls.
Of course.
Okay, so for some reason, and I wonder if this was on purpose or a joke or something.
But if you pick a male character, there's a certain sound that he makes when you take damage.
It goes, oh, oh, oh.
And I'm like, what is that?
Like, that's not pain.
No, it's pleasure.
Somebody came up with a theory, though,
and said that, well, you kind of have to be somewhat of a sadist or whatever to,
or I don't know if it's proper to say masochist,
masochist or a sadist.
I think it's massacist.
Massacus would be.
I'm pretty sure masochist is the one who gets hurt.
Like being hurt.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.
So, yeah.
Because, and that's kind of how the game is.
It's all punishing.
So, like, they start liking it and shit.
Because it's the weirdest fucking thing.
Like, guys, if you hear this, go.
No play because there isn't
There isn't anybody who isolated those clips
Online which I thought it was weird
I thought I was gonna find other people talking about it
And I was like I know I'm not crazy
My friend who spoke about it
We were like this is this weird
Is it ignore it? Yeah
That's what's happening
And I was like no someone needs to make a video about this shit
Because it's fucking interesting like it's literally moaned
You'll never hear anything like that
I haven't played enough enough Dark Souls to notice it
Oh man just fucking just
Boot it up and then just get fucking slapped around
By like the first thing
And then you'll hear some nice
sweet fucking male moons.
He releases his pain.
Yeah.
But not the chick though.
The girl, like it sounds like actual pain.
Like, she's in pain.
Like, which is weird because usually it's the opposite.
Yeah, exactly.
So it was, it's really interesting.
Just, just an observation.
It's disgusting.
It is, it is kind of the opposite in most kids.
Like, I remember like when I was, I remember when I was playing Tomb Raider.
Oh, yeah.
And I was like, there were a couple points where I was like, I got to stop.
This.
I got to take a quick break.
Why was it like?
Because it was like, it was just like, this is just setting stuff off in my head right now.
I need to take care of business.
But it's like, it's very like, obviously, it's like, this is not pain.
Or at least, like, some of them are, obviously.
But then, like, other times it's like, I don't know, man.
That doesn't sound particularly...
You enjoy that.
Not that I'm particularly familiar with the sounds of women screaming and pain.
That's not something that I have to deal with on a regular.
I heard it before.
But I could imagine that it's probably not quite like this.
That's not what that sounds like.
Yeah.
Fuck.
I forgot.
Wow.
How did I forget her name?
The Cyclops's, his broad Phoenix.
Yeah, Gene Gray.
Gene Gray.
I was like, I don't forget her name.
In the animated series, the X-Men animated series, she made sex sounds.
Oh, yeah.
She would be like doing too much shit.
And it's literally like, oh.
And I'm like, whoa.
I was like, whoa.
So what's going on?
Nice.
I totally understood like Wolverine fucking wanted that shit so badly.
It's like that scene in the beginning of the Lion King where that like, I care.
It was it like a hyaena or some like deer looks up and he's like chewing grass.
That's my brain.
That's the first time you hear an orgasm and register it is something that you like to hear.
It's like, what's this?
The first time the sun starts to rise up on the land and everybody takes notice.
A fucking crippled monkey walks up on a pride rock
lifts up a...
A picture of a pussy?
Yeah.
A picture of a pussy.
You're just like, what's the...
I was going to say like a laptop with, like, porn on it or something.
It's a picture of me.
Just a fucking printed out picture.
Hey, it's Jay Shetty from On Purpose.
Check out the best of a moment we did, presented by eBay.
Music has always been one of my teachers.
There was a vinyl record I used to play during a quiet, very formative season of my life.
Late nights, no distractions, just me, the music and my thoughts.
Over time, life changed, schedules filled up, and somewhere along the way, that record
disappeared.
I didn't notice right away, but I felt the absence of what it represented.
So I searched for that same vinyl, the same version, the same cover, and I found it on eBay.
When it arrived, I couldn't wait to listen.
And when I finally did, the music was the same, but I wasn't.
I heard it differently.
I understood it differently.
And that's when it really hit me.
Objects can evolve us.
They can remind us of practices we want to return to,
of values we don't want to lose,
a versions of ourselves that still matter.
That's what I love about eBay.
It's not just about buying things.
It's also a place where you can let go of items that are no longer serving you
or that you no longer need.
You can give items a new life, a new story with someone else.

I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man.
Tell us who you are and what you do.
I'm Dan Morgan.
I'm an attorney and a managing partner at Morgan & Morgan,
which is America's largest injury law firm.
That's pretty awesome.
I think I saw billboarded years recently that said 20 billion one.
20 billion is an insane number.
Yeah, 20 billion recovered.
It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year.
And each year we get bigger and badder and our army grows.
So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger as time goes on.
Awesome.
So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan?
What would I do if I got into an accident?
Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open.
Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24-7, 365.
Wow.
Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law Firm, thanks for coming by the show.

Would you confront the person?
I would, I wouldn't confront that.
I'd be like, listen.
I would ask.
I would, no, I'd bring up in conversation one day.

Pussies, right?
So if he had it vice versa,

Yeah,

Yeah,

Because like we live with each other.
So we have to like,
if there's something strange
about one of us,
we got to tackle that instantly
because we sleep around each other.
So that's a good point.
Yeah,

dwelling space.
Yeah.

so it could mimic the settings for my lights
oh
I have Wi-Fi I have Wi-Fi
lights, right?
Yeah.
And I can take a picture
and I can take the color profile
from that picture
and then use it to change the lights
in my room.
And I felt like having
a particularly pink room.
You know what, dude?
Authentically pink.
Yeah, really authentic actually.
Fucking almost human.
You know what?
I'm gonna get out of here, bud.
Thank you.
I appreciate it.
Bye, bye.
Get out.
You're fired.
You're fired.
That's pretty good.
I believe that's...
That would be the conversation
for the most part.
That would be the conversation.
more like, what the fuck, dude, you fucking weird.
It's kind of weird.
More like us, I'm just insulting him
from being different, because that's what happens
a lot. That would be weird, though,
if I saw that on somebody's fine.
I feel like, I, I feel like
a gaped anything. Like, the inside
of anything. Like a prolapsing
asshole. That's a person. Yeah, like, if you have
pictures of, like, your throat, you know what I mean?
Like, why do you have pictures of your throat?
It all looks the same, bro. Like, I saw
I saw this guy that got
throat surgery for his
vocal cords. And I was like, that looks like,
like a pussy or something.
It looks the same.
It's pink,
slimy.
I don't like this.
I like this.
It's not,
yeah.
Even insides all look kind of
just like pussy.
Yeah.
Man,
I fucking hope my parents
don't know about this show.
Oh,
hell yeah,
dude.
I hope no one of my family is like,
what are you talking about?
Do your parents have a Facebook or anything
that I could,
uh,
no.
They actually don't.
I keep my family away from what I really am.
That's good,
man.
I,
I,
my mom,
uh,
is subscribed to me and I hate it.
Oh, my parents watch my videos, which is really awkward,
especially for this last one, because I was like,
for the last video, I was like, all right, it's going to take,
it's going to take a sexy Latin man with an enormous cock
and a fantastic cock to figure this out.
And I was just like, oh, man, I forgot that my parents watched this shit.
Mother and father, forgive me for, I have overstayed my boundaries yet again.
I beg for forgiveness.
I've overstepped my boundaries.
Guys, the video that, the Twitter trash that we did,
I guess my mom doesn't like understand my
I guess I don't basic dark humor
And there was even like she asked me
And this was probably like a month ago
This is one with us, me and swing
Yeah the one the other one we did
And she asked me probably about a month ago
She was like
I don't remember what I brought up
But she was like yo
Were you serious about wanting to kill yourself
You said you wanted to like like
I forgot what I said
But there was probably multiple suicidate
jokes and I'm assuming.
Oh, yeah, it's a pretty safe assumption.
Yeah.
And I was just like, what the fuck?
Like, you were, is this something you've been holding on to?
Because we filmed that a long time ago.
I was like a while.
That was a while ago.
So I was like, have you been holding on in this shit?
And like, she just wanted to bring it up, but she's like, I don't want to, I don't know how to talk to my son about him wanting to end his life.
And I was like, oh my God.
I was like, no, I was like, no.
I told her, I was like, mom, honestly, like, the biggest obstacle in my life right now,
anything that's bothering me is that I can't stop eating fast food.
Like, that's it.
Like I'm just a fat piece of shit and that's it.
I don't want to kill myself.
I don't want to kill myself, Mom.
I'm pretty sure.
I really,
I really do enjoy living.
Even in the,
those moments where you're like,
oh man,
this is fucking shitty.
But I'm like,
but then I'm like,
how bad is it?
Like,
I got running water.
I got phone.
Yeah.
I got food.
I got like being stolen.
Like,
I don't have to worry about being taken somewhere
against my will and building a fucking pyramid.
Exactly.
Like life could be worse.
Are people still building pyramids?
No, but like that happened.
That happened to people.
Yes, it did.
They were kind of just being like primordial Jews and then they had to build pyramids out of nowhere.
That's very true.
That's very true.
That's pretty good.
Could you imagine someone describing a pyramid to you the building?
Like, what the fuck are you talking about?
You want me to build a, you want me to build a three-d triangle?
I mean to build a triangle where it has four sides?
What the fuck?
How does that work?
How does that work?
With rocks?
How do I make the rock smaller?
And then that's it fucking do it.
I don't,
it would be really unfortunate if my parents didn't understand dark humor.
I think they,
they get it.
I mean,
my dad helped me film the bleach.
Your dad's a human being very far.
My dad filmed some of it.
Like,
the stuff that's in upstate in like the Walmart is my friend.
But when I'm in the city,
when I'm in Times Square,
collapsing on the ground in front of SWAT cops,
that's my dad behind the camera filming all of it.
So he's like,
he gets it.
He gets it.
He gets it.
I think I get most of my humor from him.
My mom understands it is what she says.
But she'll be like, I don't know why you have to joke about killing yourself so often.
It's basically what is this like so often.
And it's like, I don't know.
It's fucking whatever.
My family is super not capable of like my grandma's like super a biracial Christian Afro Latina.
Yeah.
She does not get my comedy.
They ask me, they ask me all the time not to stop cursing.
Is what they do.
They say stop cursing.
don't curse in front of my grandmother.
So, like, if you ever saw one of my videos about me threatening to kill you with a bare
hands, she'll be like, Kingston?
Look, Kingston.
What happened?
What did I do wrong?
I gave you everything you needed.
They don't want to, they just, they just don't want to admit that, like, I got it from
them.
Ah.
It's fucking, it's fucking New York.
Like, you got to be kidding me.
Like, I've heard, I've heard my parents say, such horrible things to, to, you
people on the street or just about people like at work whatever you know yeah and in the street
you hear also just it's school it was like a it was like a christmas story you know you've ever seen
a christmas story those kids are fucking cursing up a storm that is how things will be for the
rest of time kids are you're if you have a fucking seven-year-old boy a seven-year-old girl and they're
like they're so precious they go to school and they say they sound like they sound like vietnam
I'm veterans in Queens.
Like, they will, they will rub people the wrong way.
I remember the first time I learned how to articulately string together curses and I felt like
a fucking magician.
That was awesome.
I was like, I can't be stopped locally.
Verbly, I am a deity.
Oh, yeah.
Like for the first time, okay, now, the first time I said, you stupid pussy and the way that
the P.S. popped off my lips.
I was just like, this is just the best sound ever.
This word.
This word brings me joy
I love calling people
You fucking puerile progerian pussy
You fucking prolapsing
Pune pussy
Punch with your fucking face
That's a nice
It's a nice pop
It's a good pee
You got a good pee
I can't do the pee
Pussy
Pussy
That's nice
Pussy
Almost
I like follow it through
I gotta get to have the lip
The lips
And then I can't do it
Now I want a girl to say something like that
Hey, you want this pussy?
Huh, huh, huh, baby.
I went to start laughing.
I'm like, that's so funny.
Speaking of that, how was, I saw, I didn't watch it yet, but like, I saw you did a Twitter
tracks with fucking Adam 22.
Oh my God.
It was, uh, it was interesting because I just went at his, like, podcast paste.
I didn't know you knew him.
Yeah, I just, who's Adam?
I just watched some of it.
I didn't know.
He has their, no jumper podcast.
Oh, wow.
Fucking pretty much discovered, like, all the sound cloud rappers that are prevalent.
So I don't know if, like, like.
if that's a good thing, but, uh, I don't know that's a good thing.
But, uh, I don't know, I just, uh, at a certain point, I, sometimes I would just message
people and just say, hey, or I enjoy that word. Let's do something sometimes.
I'm too nervous to do that. I don't, I feel like people are like, ah, they'll see my name and
they'll be like, all right. What is that? That's my immediate assumption. You? No, it's not
because I am. It's just because like people fucking tangentially, like, I was on that report, you know.
You were on that too, right? Dude, that, yeah, but that report failed so fucking hard.
I know. Yeah. Because people, there were some. There were some.
There were some progressives that were trying to take it to a level.
Like, we told you Francesco Ramsey, this one very liberal show that I watched,
they're like the young Turks, but like better.
They're not like.
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with Sophia Bush.
Check out this special moment we did on our show presented by eBay.
When I was living in Chicago, I took part in my first ever giant charity sale,
and I was able to auction several items.
from my personal closet on eBay.
They were items that marked huge moments in my life and in my career.
And though I was ready to pass them along,
I also wanted to make sure they were going to someone who would love them.
One of the things I loved them most about doing this with eBay
is there was a way for everyone to shop.
It wound up being so much fun to see where each and every item was going,
where it was going to be loved.
And in passing items along like that,
authenticity really matters to the person who's getting them.
That's why I love eBay's authenticity guarantee.
They weren't just listing my items.
They were verifying them, making sure something was genuinely from where it claimed to be,
in this case, my closet.

I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod.
Say hi, Dan.
Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good.
man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a managing partner at
Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome. I think I saw
billboard of years recently that said 20 billion one. 20 million is an insane number. Yeah,
20 billion recovered. It's actually, I think, somewhere north, probably closer to 22, 23 after this year.
And each year we get bigger and batter and our army grows. So the number will hopefully keep getting

Injury Lawfram, thanks for coming by the show. Thanks for having me. Visit forethepeople.com
for an office near you. You know, they're not crazy. Yeah. And, but they were like, oh, see, I told
you like there was people that are trying to say shit like this but then when you look into it
there was no basis behind any of it now and then so it just kind of feel like what do you mean
you told anybody you had a line they had a line between me and richard spencer exactly i was like
when the fuck exactly that's not mr spencer is the guy who got punched like that nazi guy
who got punched or like he's like right right yeah yeah i don't know if he's actually a nazi i know he's
definitely all right he's definitely all right but like he's a white nationalist all right
but yeah the line they drew a line between me and him and i was like we've never
fucking collaborated. What are you talking about? I wouldn't
talk to that man. He scares me. And here's the thing.
A lot of people have told me, here's the thing.
A lot of people have told me, right? Oh, they didn't draw a line
between you and him.
You are just placed in between a line
between him and somebody else. To which I
say, then why not
move my point?
Because as it looks, as the way
you've put it out there, it looks like
that line is drawn to me. So either
way you slice it, it's irresponsible
because if it's aligned directly to me, it's
it's fabricated, it's false.
And if it's a line that I'm just sitting on,
then that's also just like negligence.
Yeah.
What the fuck?
It's insane.
It's complete horses shit.
Like that was one of the most try hard fucking autist things I've ever seen.
Like that was,
it was apex autism.
Like,
I've never seen it.
It was, it was, it's impressive because I wouldn't,
I don't have the attention span to do something like that.
To actually spin and cross all this shit that you know is bullshit.
Do you have to really believe and be.
passionate and this stuff.
That's hilarious.
The type of things you see like,
like said,
like not even talking shit
on an autistic person,
but that's something
that an autistic person
could be capable of doing.
You know what I'm not seeing
the autistic person.
I'm not making fun of them,
but like by God,
that's autistic.
It's like,
it's like impressive.
The amount of work
that was put into that shit.
Jeez, Chris,
if you're fucking all right,
I don't know what the fuck I am.
I don't know what the fuck I am.
I'm something else.
We are, we're pretty,
this is pretty,
I think this entire household
is,
pretty liberal. I'm pretty little.
Yeah. Yeah, I think we're all pretty little. I would say,
I would say the most liberal is probably Jalen.
Yeah, I would say that. I would say that's pretty accurate.
But like, I mean, Joe's liberal because he's,
he's a default. He's a default skin.
Oh, but like, Joe's like, Joe's just, like a guy.
Joe's just not political. He just like, he'll go with whatever.
I'm very, I'm very like, I'm very liberal too, but I think
Jaylen takes it more for that.
I feel like, I mean, most people I know are,
they're liberal to a certain extent. Like, there's,
I don't really have friends that are deeply
conservative like I don't really have
especially living where I live
I have friends that are conservative but even though they're conservative
they still have very like they're very liberal socially
and I'm like dude that's what I mean
that's what I mean it's like like people say they're physically conservative
but socially liberal that's the time of people I know people like that
that's the biggest big that's the majority of the millennials
like in general we're just for the most part that
you think so fiscally conservative I don't think so
I think we're mostly fiscally like
mostly liberal.
I mean, well, I'm...
To a certain extent.
But I mean, like, everybody has...
I think most conservatives
are probably socially liberal.
I don't think that's a particularly huge job.
There's only, like, people...
Like, uh, like, I don't understand, uh, what's that the bench of hero.
I don't understand how that guy is a rock star to a lot of conservatives because he's like
a fucking neocon.
Like, like, neocons are like, the dinosaurs are conservatives.
Everyone's like, fuck these.
He is a bit of a square.
Dude, it's very odd.
He's everything that like was like, I'm like, oh, this everything that he says is completely
like, oh, I am religious, therefore no gays, no trans, no this, no that.
Like, I saw a conversation between him and Dave Rubin.
Yeah.
Which Dave, even Dave was fucking like disappointed where he's like, dude, he's okay.
So if I had a party like celebrating my marriage or whatever, like it's just a party.
He's like, could you attend?
is like or would you attend he's like no like
Dave was like really you wouldn't even attend just a party
that's like symbolizing like it's not
you're not it's not the wedding it's not that you just know
like if it has anything to do with gayness I won't do it
and I'm like that's your fucking friend dude it is really like
that's your friend it's it's super weird
it's fucking bullshit it's so it's so alien to me
it's like dude what like that's that old
like I said that old neocan bullshit conservative like
there's people that most conservatives I
No. They don't give a fuck.
They're like, oh, you're gay. Why would I care?
Yeah, exactly. Especially there's a lot of conservatives nowadays, which is, which I can respect that are non-religious because it's usually people who are like, oh, I'm conservative, so I have to be Christian.
I'm like, no, you don't.
Like, what the fuck?
That's crazy.
You don't have to be anything.
You just, you know, you don't have to fit these molds.
You know what I'm saying?
I was very, very, very much so.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Now there's people that are like, oh, no, I fit more with these core values, but I just never was introduced to religion.
and it's fine
but this fucking
Yamika wearing
motherfuckers
is just all like
oh this hat
is controlling my will
and all of my thoughts
and I'm like
you are a piece of shit
I'm sorry
I just like I don't feel
as strongly
like about Ben Shapiro
he just like seems to me
he's like I think
he's smart
in some circumstances
but really for the most part
I just don't really
pay that much attention to him
but I did see that thing
with Dave Rubin
I was like what is what are doing
that's such a weird opinion
I don't know that that in particular
made me like really mad because it's just like...
This is Sophia Bush from Work in Progress with Sophia Bush.
Check out this special moment we did on our show presented by eBay.
There's a different kind of care that comes with letting something meaningful go,
especially when it has a story attached to it.
When you pass something on, you want to know it's being handled with respect.
I took part in my first ever giant charity sale,
and I was able to auction several items from my personal closet.
on eBay. Some of them were truly one-of-a-kind pieces connected to specific moments, TV sets,
or from personal collections. One of the things I loved the most about doing this with eBay is there
was a way for everyone to shop. Sure, people who wanted a pair of my jeans could get them, but people who
might be a different size than me could buy accessories. If you're a size eight, you're lucky,
because that's my shoe size. They could do purses, jewelry, all sorts of things. Some people needed
winterwear, some people wanted summer dresses. It wound up being so much fun. To listen to more,
check out the full episode wherever you get your podcasts. Find what you love, sell what you don't.
eBay, things people love. I've got Dan Morgan here on the pod. Say hi, Dan. Hey, how's it going today?
It's going good, man. Tell us who you are and what you do. I'm Dan Morgan. I'm an attorney and a
managing partner at Morgan and Morgan, which is America's largest injury law firm. That's pretty awesome.
I think I saw billboarded years recently.
It said 20 billion one.
20 billion is an insane number.
Yeah, 20 billion recovered.
It's actually, I think, somewhere north,
probably closer to 22, 23 after this year.
And each year we get bigger and badder,
and our army grows.
So the number will hopefully keep getting bigger and bigger
as time goes on.
Awesome.
So how does someone get in contact with Morgan and Morgan?
What would I do if I got into an accident?
Probably the easiest way is dialing pound law.
That's pound 529 from your cell phone.
We are always open.
Our call center is always waiting to take your call.
24-7, 365.
Wow.
Dan Morgan.
From Morgan and Morgan, America's Large Injury Law,
from, thanks for coming by the show.
Thanks for having me.
Visit furtherpeople.com for an office near you.
Yeah.
Like that, and even the day of room,
like, dude, how can you be friends with somebody like that?
Like, that, like, specifically who you are.
Yeah.
They don't like it.
Like, they don't respect you because you sleep with a guy.
It's like, and it's because of the,
that fucking hat on his head.
Yeah, it's disgusting.
It's definitely odd.
Like, I can't, I don't think I could be, I could probably, at most be, like, acquaintances.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Like, I can just, I can pass by.
I couldn't call you a friend if you were just, like, not going to come.
Yeah, yeah, like, wow.
Like, that's fucking crazy.
Imagine if you're a gay friend wouldn't go to your wedding because, like, he's like,
I'm sick of the straight agenda.
You'd be like, what the fucking friend?
Come there, be there.
You're my friend.
What do you mean?
It's a fucking wedding.
Who cares of your gay?
It's probably another gay person there.
Fuck him.
Yeah.
Go fuck that person.
Yeah, like, dude, just come, come here.
It's not about you.
Support me.
That's the thing, too.
It's like, it's not, it's not about.
That's, that's the best point right there.
It's, that's, it's totally like that, man.
There's a lot of shit that I'm, especially when it comes to, like, say, I'm, I'm very much, like, I can totally, I'm okay with you practicing a religion and everything like that.
I'll never say anything to you unless we're having a conversation and you actively want to, like, hear my opinion.
Yeah.
I'll never go out of my way.
But I am also, like, anti-religious.
Like, I'm, like, very.
very a secular humanist in a sense that there are certain things like the rituals that are going on
and like at a funeral really annoy me where like I want to pay respects to the dead but there's
a lot of stuff that's being said that sounds really like I don't I don't really agree with but I would
never be like oh because I'm a fucking humanist I can't go to your feeling like you say if my
friend somebody dies in the family like oh like I would like you to be there but absolutely
I'm going to support you. You're my fucking friend.
Like, no, my morals or whatever the fuck I believe has nothing to do with that.
It's crazy.
Yeah, I don't like religion at all.
I think it's probably one of the worst things ever.
But like, but it's creepy.
It's creepy as fuck.
And I'm not going to, but yeah, I'm like you.
I'm not going to like, if somebody's like praying or whatever the fuck, I'm not going to like.
I'm not going to be an asshole about it.
I have my own thoughts and I'm like, if you want to hear him, I'll tell you.
But like, I'm not going to.
Religion is so ingrained into my brain that even like, even as I've like shied away from it,
I still had, like, I was, I was, I ate this for a bit of time, and I became agnostic, because I
I believe there may be something more, and I can't particularly say there's not, you know,
I don't, I can't.
Yeah, for sure.
That's, I really, really can't.
Well, there's, that's the kind of misconse.
Like, atheists doesn't say, there's no God.
No, no, because you just don't believe that they need to be.
You just don't believe.
Yeah, and that's the thing.
I believe, I believe there may be more, because I can't, I can't.
That's still technically.
That's what you would call, like, an agnostic atheist, where, but it's, that's the most rational, literally
the most rational position to take because of what we know in the known universe.
Even like when it comes to something as a multiverse theory is extremely possible knowing
of how many things are in the universe and how, yeah.
There's, so it makes sense that there's possibly something out there.
I don't fucking know.
I wish I do.
Yeah.
And I don't know that.
So like even then it's like, oh, but like religion itself is like wonky.
Like it's, it's very, it's pretty light.
It's very, yeah.
It's like I don't want to be disrespectful.
Yeah.
It seems very cultish.
I mean, I mean, I would argue that it is very like I'm not going to say it is I don't want to make anyone offended
Right like when you read the books
About it that I read when I was like 12 and even at 12 I was like
I'm scared yeah yeah I went to Catholic school
Ooh I went to Catholic school I went to Christian and I remember I remember being even in Catholic school I was like
Death what is like what is this what is this possible
You're making me sing so the Sky Dad doesn't send me to Fire Realm?
No, the type of shit is super trippy.
I remember like certain, there were certain things that really pushed me further and further away.
I remember like all of them.
One of them was the entire story of Moses and all that shit.
And then how the story ends.
Like, oh, they were freed.
The slaves were freed.
And then they wandered the desert for 40 years.
And I was like, excuse me?
It's a long time.
end of the fucking story.
So,
the Moses story,
but yeah.
I was like,
I was like, how is that better than what was going on before where they had houses
and shit?
Like,
how is wandering the debt?
Like,
no,
literally,
I was,
I was,
I was a kid.
And I was like,
why would,
why would God do that?
That was kind of like my,
my,
I didn't understand.
There's a lot of other things.
That's the questions that,
like,
you pretty much have constantly when you're in Catholic school.
It's like,
why would he do that?
Yeah.
For me.
And everybody's like,
it's like,
it's like,
uh,
plan.
whatever, God's plan, whatever.
And I'm like, this isn't a satisfying answer.
This is just poor.
It's a really bad plan.
For me, what set me off was like,
punish the descendants of Samson.
And I was like,
what?
Why would God want that?
I don't know.
It's fucking, why, what it,
that was one man.
To me, to me, the idea,
to me,
not all of us.
Like, personally, I just think, like,
I don't,
if there is something out there,
I don't believe we know anything about it.
Yeah.
I don't believe that we can comprehend what it does.
Possibly have any idea what the hell it is if it's anything at all.
Yeah. And I think the idea that like
We have books about it and that it's accurate at all is baffling to me.
The idea of people think the Bible's accurate is mind-blowing.
If anything the commandments themselves might be a direct line from the astral being that sits above us
No, I just think it's I don't know.
Because even in that in the text for that like that was given directly from the higher power to a man to create
And that's one thing.
And I was like, all right, cool.
If that's given to this dude, then he got that directly from the first.
Like, it's first hand information had from you, your hands to mine.
But the Bible itself literally was written by a bunch of hands were involved in it.
Like a lot.
No, actually, yeah.
And modified.
It was assembled by like a committee.
Yeah, for real.
Like actually, for real.
Is it Constantine or something?
Yeah, they built it.
Yeah.
There was.
Yeah.
So.
And it's like, I mean, there's some good value.
is in there, yeah, like, I'm not going to lie.
Like, some of the values in, they help me become a better person.
Oh, sure, but you don't need, you don't need that to learn that.
You don't need it to learn it, yes, but that's where I did learn it.
Right.
So you can learn good things from it.
You definitely can. You definitely know, there's like, I don't think there's denying
that there's some good that comes out of religion, especially community.
Yeah, yeah, 100%.
That's, like, that's like something that, yeah, I had fun.
I had fun, like, hanging out with the kids that I would go to church with.
Yeah, there was that.
I would go to these church retreats in the mountain, which were pretty cool.
Other than there was like this guy that literally looked like Ned Flanders,
like the mustache and glasses and everything.
And it was weird.
I don't know if who came first, you know.
I don't know.
But that guy was kind of weird because he was,
I thought it was complete horseshit,
but he would try to tell these stories.
Back to back the years when I went,
he would tell these stories of like, oh, oh, this was crazy.
God spoke to me and I don't, that's why I don't masturbate.
It was like, well, it was like one of those things.
It was like some crazy thing.
And I'm like, I'm, dude, I'm going to jerk off tonight.
Like, no way.
As soon as I go to bed, I'm going to do it.
Like, no way.
If God tells me not to do it, then I'll be like, hey, I'll chill out.
Like, literally, like, they say masturbating makes you go blind.
That was, yeah.
Which is fucked because I'm, wow, I can't see.
I cannot see.
You can slow down, man.
Just like.
You gotta pace yourself, brother.
You're like, keep it, keep it like.
It's part of the routine.
One a day, you'll be all right.
One a day.
Like a vitamin.
Like one a day is safe.
Like one a day is safe.
One a day.
Once you start overstepping that threshold, your sight will, you'll pay.
You'll pay the price.
Want a day or you'll pay.
You know what's insane?
I remember like the...
I remember specifically the one of the first times where I was like,
I don't think I'm religious anymore.
It was because I was playing Halo 2.
And you realize that these guys are maniacs.
No, because like there's that whole story.
The story in Halo 2 is literally about an alien
finding out that his religion is wrong.
Yeah.
Literally.
And I was like, what the fuck?
This is nuts.
That's why it's weird to me that a video game about shooting aliens
was like, like I was playing it at a point in time
where I was like, oh wow, this is fucking actually,
I'm getting something out of this.
I mean, that might have been like...
It's so crazy that that's the main story of Halo 2.
It's pretty much arbiter story of Halo 2.
It's just like...
Well, yeah.
Oh, wow.
But I'm just talking more about just like the fact that a video game kind of brought me to that.
I mean, kind of...
Makes sense to me, man.
Some of the most things, like, the way that I read,
the way that I was able to read pretty well was through playing RPGs because there's so much
fucking reading the projects.
Yeah.
Like, it's like, video games really important.
in that sense and uh you know something that i don't even i'm not even really a fan of harry potter
but harry potter was the thing that kind of made me like okay religion is so wacky that
these books are coming out and people are freaking out and saying that they're tools for the devil
and shit yeah i was like i people said pokemons are like they're should have just animals of
literally everything they're animals of powers dungeons and dragons i mean i mean i mean i i
I play Dunners and Dragons and D&D, it gets, it gets, like, demonic at certain points
where it's like, whoa, I'm fighting a actual demon that's trying to eat the earth.
Do you think anyone was like converted?
Like, oh, you know, I like, I love Satan now.
Like, he's pretty, he's pretty dope.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm trying to fuck with that.
I'm trying to get on that train right now.
But I mean, like, I don't, it's just weird.
Like, Pokemon for me, like, they're literal animals.
How is an electric rat demonic?
Look at him.
Look at him.
There's nothing evil.
Look at him.
He's just a rat that can make electricity come out of him.
Has anybody made a list of the original Pokemon and instead of their names?
Like just put like what they are.
Like put like electric rat and water turtle and all of them.
It's ridiculous.
What is it?
Bush.
It's like shellfish.
It's selfish.
Bush frog?
Bush frog.
I don't know.
What is Bolbosaur?
Yeah.
From I know.
Charmander is the lizard.
Yeah.
That's lizards and it goes into flame lizard.
Then it's like squirtle's actually shellfish.
No, no, no, he's turtle.
He's turtle, total.
He's a shellfish.
Oh, yeah, he's a shit.
Yeah.
What the fuck is Onyx?
All right.
It's a rock snake.
Is that real?
Rockworm.
Is that a boulder worm?
He's a fucking sex toy.
He's a lot.
Oh, my God.
He's anal beads.
With a little knob at the top.
Oh, shit.
Oh, that's gross.
Damn. There you go. I like that.
Dude, holy shit, right?
What?
Are you...
Sorry, I interrupt.
I just remember the fucking hot takes.
We didn't look at them at all.
Yeah, so we're gonna...
I was looking at...
We were gonna segue into some hot takes
that we're going to maybe hopefully spark
an argument between the three of us here,
or possibly.
But all of these hot takes that you've given me
are the worst ones.
I think I have ever seen.
Oh, my God.
There is nothing wrong with incest.
Everything wrong with incest.
So that's one of them.
Okay, literally, let me do it from bio standpoint.
You have a certain amount of...
No, no, no, no, no, I have to.
You don't have to convince any of us.
You don't.
I have to speak on this.
Whoever said that, you're wrong.
You're wrong.
Kyle Spillman.
Kyle hopes my spills your brains.
Okay?
You're wrong.
You're wrong.
That's not genuine, by the way.
It's a real death threat.
We were just kidding around.
Please don't demonetize.
We need money.
But you have a set
I like if we think that this is getting monetized at all
Yeah
This podcast is fucked
So what happens is in incest
Okay
Have you guys said the same genetic code
You can only get so many chromosomes
So what happens is if you gain one of them
Your child will be missing some other ones
Because that person that you're a fucking
Has the same once
Good night
You're very passionate about this sir
I'm gonna cut all that out
Because it's unnecessary
It's so important
It's so important
It's so important
What incest is bad, we understand.
Yeah, I was like, just that fuck.
Even that fuck, he's probably just like, I don't know.
He probably trolls in front of a bridge.
It's just all standard shit.
Like, Nickelback isn't that bad.
They're not that bad.
They're not that bad.
They're not as bad as Imagine Dragons.
No, Imagine Dragons is like even, I think I was watching Bojack Horsemen, they even brought that up.
And Imagine Dragmen, it's like the worst.
It is unanimously.
They hate it.
People just hate it bad.
I don't even, like, I don't even, like, it's so boring.
I don't even what you do at a concert.
Like, what do you even do?
I don't even hate it, but I just like, damn, people really hate it.
I just don't understand the appeal.
Like, when I hear it, it doesn't make me feel anything.
And I think that's where you absolutely fail.
If I feel nothing.
Not even rage.
Yeah.
It's like, I don't want this on.
Because that's the point.
The point of music is to feel emotion, and I feel nothing.
They're just fucking.
I don't get it.
It's awful.
Yeah.
And what makes it worse is that the singer of that band is,
is either married to or dating the singer
of another band that I actually used to like
and ever since they started dating they started
to sound like Imagine Dragons.
Yeah.
It's pretty...
What is that fucking? It's Roblox, right?
Jesus Christ.
I'm a sick fuck. I'm like a quick fuck.
I'm a dick suck. I like a dick suck.
I'm a dick suck. I'm so happy you said
that because I forgot about it a little bit. Now it's back.
I was saying that for weeks.
I'm a dicks.
The state of memes right now is fuck
All I see is like moths and lamps and a little pump
It's literally all I'm seeing
Oh my God
You have a lamp
That fucking moth shit
That was one of the memes that I just didn't
I saw one that made me laugh
One literally
And I wasn't even exaggerating people like
You're fucking bullshit
And I was like no I saw the one
Because Aladdin I love Aladdin right
Oh to hand
And he's like throw me the lamp
And I was like see that's funny
There was one that was pretty good
That was like it was like the little pump
thing where it was like you're such a fucking lamp.
I love it. And it was like, like, properly edited and it was like a light bulb like chroma keyed
onto that chick's face. Oh, is there? I was like, that's pretty fun.
That was edit. You spice it up. Okay. Yeah. Yeah.
Like he was like a guy was in a car. It was like a picture of a fucking moth in a car and it's like,
do you have a lamp? Like I'm sorry we're out of lamp today. Do you have?
Chili lamp? And it's like, yeah, we got chile lamp right now. That's pretty funny.
That pissed me off.
That just pissed me off.
We're going to end, I guess, on that horrendous note.
Do you have...
Fucking moth means.
Everything's done.
Everything's over with fuck.
Yeah.
