The Tim Dillon Show - 271 - The Many Taints of Newark

Starting point is 00:00:00 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Excited to be with you. A lot is happening and not happening, as always. Did you, I saw the many scenes of Newark. Have you seen that movie yet? I haven't seen it yet. This is weird and I, I, I, I, I don't want to talk about this because I don't want people to get the wrong idea. I know that a lot of people are, they have a, you know, obviously I love Joey Diaz who's in the movie and I love a lot of the people that are, that are in the movie, right? I mean, The Surprise is an epic show. I don't, it's weird the direction they took to me. I think it's odd. It's strange to me to

Starting point is 00:00:47 do a prequel where a huge element of the character that was not at all in the show is brought out. That's weird to me. The prequel to the many scenes of Newark is about how Tony Soprano, like, got into the mafia and the entire movie, I don't know if you know this, but is literally, and this is a little fucking, why are you smiling? The entire movie is Tony getting into the mafia

Starting point is 00:01:22 because he's gay and he's trying to hide his sexuality from other people and he feels the most effective way to do that. And there are sex scenes where Tony Soprano is having sex with men in this movie as the receptive partner. He's taking it in the movie and people were shocked at this. The whole crux of the movie is that Tony's in an interracial, interracial relationship in Newark with a man. This is odd

Starting point is 00:02:00 to me because in the Sopranos, there was never a thought that, listen, I'm a gay guy. I think gay cinema is great, but there was never a thought that Tony was gay. So to me to make his character gay and give him this the story arc of having a love interest is very, very strange. And even if you did all of that, the visceral nature of a lot of these sex scenes, I mean, it's really aggressive. It's aggressive. But this is what Hollywood has decided to do.

Starting point is 00:02:41 And I'm emailing you right, there's a scene because you know that I was asked to audition for this. Oh, you did? I was asked to audition for this. So I got the script and there is a scene that me and you are going to read from the many Saints of Newark. Okay. And I again, I worry, I worry that, you know, again, I don't want to offend anyone that really enjoyed the picture. But I think that it's worth stating how different this is

Starting point is 00:03:17 than most of what we've come to expect from the David Chase and the Sopranos. Do you have it? Did you get it? I'm refreshing. There it goes. Okay, so we're, this is a scene from the many Saints of Newark. And again, I'm, so here, don't read it. Read it as you do it. That's what a real actor does. Okay. Okay, who am I? You're African-American man. Now, I want you to start, I want you to start

Starting point is 00:03:52 describe the scene up top. Okay, you want me to be the narrator? Yes. Okay. Tony, a young sexually confused man, explores gender and sexuality with older men in the mafia. This is weird, right? I mean, let's be honest. Is this, is this not, is this not weird? This is not what I thought the movie was gonna be about. And listen, I don't do a good Tony Soprano impression. That's not what I'm trying to do here. What I'm trying to do is act and breathe life into the scene. Okay, so let's start. Okay. Tony is sitting on a, is sitting on a bench by the basketball court. He notices a young African-American man playing basketball shirtless. Tony is shy at first.

Starting point is 00:04:35 But brings to speak to him. Well that, I don't know why that was written like that. Hey, what are you doing? Okay, so I'm African-American, right? You're the man. Now, this is Tony's at a basketball court. Yeah. He's watching an African-American man play basketball shirtless. And Tony is sitting there. And I think in the movie, he's eating an ice cream cone seductively. But that was edited later. Again, this is the many saints of Newark. It's true. I'm only laughing because

Starting point is 00:05:13 I'm stunned that they went in this direction. Okay, Tony is shy at first, but speaks to him. Hey, what are you doing? I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching you, watching you like what you see? Hey, what you're doing right now with the black hands and stuff? It's not necessary. You know what I mean? Do you know what you just did? You're like, I'm playing ball. Black people don't talk like that. Do you see what you did when you go like this? I'm trying to think of how they'd play it. Yeah. Well, it's groovy. I think you're just just really just respect the work. I don't think we need to start doing a dance. Okay. Okay. Hey, what are you doing? I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching you like what you see? Okay, it's I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching you like what you see? Watching you like what you see?

Starting point is 00:06:05 Maybe I do. Maybe I do. Let me ask you something. Do yous have bigger dicks than us? You know, like that's what people say. Only one way to find out. You guys must have real bourgeois over there where you come from. I'm Italian. I'm in the mafia. Or at least I will be, but I can't tell anyone that I'm, you know, into men. I know what that's like. You do? My pastor says that gay people go to hell. He calls them three dollar bills. Your church, that's what they do to scream in and everything. Hey, you think anyone is there right now?

Starting point is 00:06:42 Maybe we can go over there. You want to see my church? I want to see you. Tony pulls the man close to him and they begin making out. Tony is grabbing his crotch. The man seems uncomfortable with all the people around. Not here. We can have sex in my church. So this is crazy to me. Then they go have sex in a church where Tony is getting it in the ass and it's crazy. So is there like a gospel choir and everything but there in the back? No, it's an empty church. Okay. And he's just like pounding Tony and then Tony says, I don't know if I want you.

Starting point is 00:07:21 This is a quote from the movie. Tony goes, I don't know if I want you to explode in me, but I also want to taste you. And then the guy goes, well, have you heard of felching? And Tony goes, no, what's that? And the guy goes, that's where I would come inside of you and then suck it out with a straw or something and then spit it back in your mouth. All I'm saying is this is very surprising to me. That's what I'm saying. Again, go see the film, make your own decisions. It's very surprising that they went in this direction, personally. You know? I

Starting point is 00:07:52 mean the whole thing, when we meet Carmella, like it's crazy because he's like having sex with guys, it's weird. Anyway, that's just putting it, that's just my two cents. I don't want to make anyone mad. No, and Joey Diaz is in this, I heard it's good. James D'Amore got mad at me, that guy, you know that guy from Google? Yeah, yeah, yeah, he's kind of has Marfan syndrome, I think he's like, he's really like, I don't know, he's like very lanky and he, uh, he's autistic.

Starting point is 00:08:26 He says he's autistic. He says that he sees the world differently. He got angry with me because I criticize his digital art. And this is the guy that wrote the memo. At Google, he wrote a memo where he was basically like, I think women should have had bags around their heads and get taken out into the parking lot. And he said that there's, you know, whatever. So he made this AI art. It's very bad. So I just wrote, these are all bad. I quote tweeted it. And then he used that video, that thing of me where I have sunburn and he goes, AI is a matter of inputs. Like for this foul one, all I put was gay Chris Farley. I, and I have a horrible sunburn. I never should have put that photo out.

Starting point is 00:09:05 But sometimes you got to put a photo out where you look the worst so that it can always be the photo people use. But again, that photo still makes more sense than his like kind of deeply satanic, very strange AI art that he did. He's like odd. It's like demons and hell and so I don't know what the inputs he put in, but again, people get very sensitive. All these, a lot of these tech pros, which weird, they're like kind of like goth theater. Blanks. And I don't know what, even though they're like tech bros, they're like, I don't, you know what I mean? They're like weird nerd. And again, they got, he was angry at me.

Starting point is 00:09:47 And I defended him when he wrote that memo saying that women wanted to get bags over their heads and take it out into the parking lot at Google. So I don't understand what's the problem. But he's very sensitive. These people are very sensitive, okay? And he lives in Austin. So we know he's one of the worst people in the world, but we still support him that, and we don't think it's fair that he was fired from Google for saying that women like to have garbage bags put over them and then put in a van. Um, he got angry with me that people don't like objective reality anymore when you say like, like the way he says like men and women have different, they have different aptitudes. It's also like some things are bad.

Starting point is 00:10:25 That AI is, art is bad. That little Noz X version of Jolene is bad. It's not good. He's speaking. He's going, Jolene. And of course Dolly Parton got a tweet like, I just am honored and I love him. Because you can't be honest because the appeal of little Noz X is in the package. It's in, there's a good-looking black gay guy and he has, you know, he's a flare about him. He knows what he's doing, but the actual vocals are not good. And for anyone to pretend they're good, then the Old Town Road song was kind of a troll that became huge. But, and he's smart, but it's, and he knows what to do. He says, look, I'm fucking Satan this week and next week I'm pregnant.

Starting point is 00:11:11 But that's in, that's replacing the music. See, people should realize that that's not in addition to the music. Like Lady Gaga's talented and then she does a lot of that stuff in addition to the music. This is completely like instead of the music, we're gonna do this. I'm gonna, you know, take a photo of myself or have a CGI photo of myself made where I have a baby. And this is like, you know, but again, to say like this isn't good, people get very angry or to point out the AI art and go, hey man, this is not good. It's objectively terrible. I'm sure you're a lovely person, but this art is very, very bad. And why are you, why do you care? You just put inputs into a computer and then it made it.

Starting point is 00:11:58 Why do you give a shit? Maybe I'm insulting the AI. It may not be you, but you know, people don't like the truth. It's unfortunate. You know, it's like a lot of people are not going to like to hear that Tony Sopranos is a gay man, but this is what it is. This is something funny that you showed me from the show. What is it called? The United States of Al? That's correct. Yeah. This show, uh, United States of Al. Rewrite season two premiere to offer powerful moving reaction to situation in Afghanistan. By the way, the title of that article tells you everything you want to know. And it immediately, you know, it was the wrong move. Rewrite season two premiere to offer powerful moving reaction to situation in Afghanistan.

Starting point is 00:12:46 Is this guy Afghani? He's Indian and he's from South Africa. She's nothing to do with Afghanistan. He's playing an Afghani interpreter in the show. So he was always an Afghani interpreter in the United States of Al? Yes. Because he was always, well, I guess. And his best friend is a marine who fought in Afghanistan and now they're here and they're, you know, Oh, well, then I guess they have to do something. But he's not Afghani in real life. Understood. But I mean, in the show, he's an Afghani interpreter. I believe so, yeah. And his friend's a marine. You wonder if the writers got like a tip that this was going to happen. Do you think the United States of Al knew before the State Department that the Taliban was about to take over?

Starting point is 00:13:25 Because it does feel like the United States of Al now did have to. Like, I do feel they were in the unenviable position of having to address it. It feels that way. It feels like they had, I had no idea he was an Afghani interpreter. What show is this? Like, why would this be a show? And so the United States of Al is about apparently an Afghani interpreter. And his marine best friend that are what? Buds? They're like buddies, yeah. They're buddies and they live together in the same town. Here it is. A marine combat veteran struggling to readjust a civilian life in Ohio.

Starting point is 00:14:02 And then Awal Mir, a.k.a. Al, the interpreter who served with his unit in Afghanistan has just arrived to start a new life in America. That's just their friendship. So it's an Afghani interpreter and a marine. They come back to the U.S., hilarity ensues. Now, the United States of Al, of course, they have to do something. They can't ignore it. They have to do something. I'm sympathetic to this more than I thought I would be. It does seem to be the, also, don't make a very bad show like this in the first place. It's such a bad show. It's a marine and an Afghani interpreter, like, having beers like the Afghanistan war was worth it. That's what the premise of the show is. Because it brought them together.

Starting point is 00:14:49 It's a brotherhood. So what? A lot of people are dead. Doesn't matter. That's the premise of the show. This is what Hollywood likes to do. They like to, like, make things where they go. It's kind of a wash, isn't it? I mean, Al and his buddy would have never been brought together if we didn't have the Afghanistan war. So it's an odd way to market a program, but they love this shit. This is how they kind of smooth over all these mistakes. And by mistakes, I don't mean mistakes. I mean, like, you know, the bloodlust empire. I mean, to call it a mistake. You know, mistake is like, where's the car keys? Not like, oh, we're going to Afghanistan to pay off pedophiles.

Starting point is 00:15:29 And, you know, steal lithium ion. That's not really a mistake. But the way, at the end of all of that, to kind of make it like, hey, sorry, they do these cutesy little shows where, like, people become friends with each other from, you know, this 20-year-long war that killed people for absolutely no reason. But the United States of Al. And so this is the scene where Al, I guess, realizes that the Taliban... This is the promo for the upcoming episode. That's, it's the big Afghanistan episode. It's the big one. This is the one because the fans of the United States of Al, I don't know who they are. I imagine they're older white people with, dementia is not, it's setting in.

Starting point is 00:16:18 It's not, it hasn't fully ravaged their brain, but it's setting in. And they're like, well, you like the United States of Al. And it's, because that CBS is crowd, they're old people. They're elderly people that watch the United States of Al. And it explains to them why we went to war in Afghanistan, uh, through the TV. And they sit there and they let mashed potatoes dribble out of their mouths while they stare at this. So now let's play this for everyone. This is the Afghanistan episode from the United States of Al. Riley. Listen to me.

Starting point is 00:17:06 This is... So, Al's family is still in Afghanistan. He's... During this scene, do you like, do you quit? When they ask you to do this, when they say, do you mind taking out a phone? And then you're going to on speakerphone, pretend you're talking to someone desperately trying to get out of Afghanistan. Like at this point, do you think of choosing another career? There's always got to be a moment in your career. Like I have it all the, every day, every minute.

Starting point is 00:17:45 But you got to imagine that when you're doing this, it's so offensive on so many levels and it's... First of all, when painful things happen, of course, one tries to make them into art forever, right? But this is like immediately this is happening and it's also happening in the most grotesque way imaginable. Like we're rewriting the season premiere so that we can deliver a powerful moving message uh, from our sitcom

Starting point is 00:18:16 on CBS. Play the rest of this, but it's crazy. It's crazy. They're doing a scene where I guess his family member going, I don't know if I can do this and Al is trying to talk them through it. Yeah. Yeah. Played from the beginning again, please, and I won't interrupt. Riley. Is it confirmed? The Taliban took Harat. Kabul may be next. Al's family's there. We're at the airport. Although there's so many people, I don't think I can do this. Listen to me.

Starting point is 00:18:47 I am right there with you. But he's not. But, but hold on. But Al is in America. That's right. Now could does CBS include any of the perspectives of the Taliban in this? Like does the Taliban get to have any say at all? Or is this just some type of

Starting point is 00:19:20 like you know propaganda vehicle for the U.S. Because I think the Taliban have something to say as well that I would like to see their uh opinion in a CBS sitcom as well. If we could fictionalize the Taliban and what they want out of this whole thing.

Starting point is 00:19:47 Well, when is it on? When can you watch the United States of Al? I think it's coming out sometime this week. It says the premier's dropping really soon. Because I really want to see this. Well, it's exciting. And the the Indian actors seem to have locked his account upon the release of this promo. Well, we it's not the actor's fault. They're saying the words that they were written on the page. I think people are mad that he's Indian though, and he's doing an Afghani accent.

Starting point is 00:20:18 They're not even mad at the they're not even mad at the right things. What they should be mad at is that A, the show exists. Right. B, CBS exists. They're not even mad at their you know they should uh I like that the Taliban just took a rot. Kabul could be next. Al has family there. Yeah. Here's a real synopsis of an episode that came out

Starting point is 00:20:42 this year. Al greets Riley's daughter Hazel and introduces himself as her godfather on a video call with his mother. Al is berated for wearing shorts as it against his religion as a Muslim to do. The following day, Al and Riley go to the DMV where Al becomes nervous after seeing that his female driving instructor Paula is also wearing shorts and as a result fails his driving test. Wanting to adjust to American social norms, Al talks with Riley Art and an offended Lizzie to sort things out deciding to avoid forcing his religious double standards on other people. And his following visits to the DMV with Paula as his driving instructor, Al, overcomes his issues by acknowledging

Starting point is 00:21:15 both Paula and himself are wearing shorts only to become nervous once again after stopping at a traffic light next to a charity car wash with bikini clad women. Okay. Why are we doing this? Why do we need to do this? Why are we trying to do this? I'm very curious as to why CBS is doing this?

Starting point is 00:21:40 Like this is a guy who's gonna have to like some of his some of his beliefs and and views are seem a little antiquated And CBS is now trying to figure out like funny situations to put him in I mean Who's this for? I guess this is for young Muslims that love CBS Is that what it's about? That are also wrestling with some of these ideas

Starting point is 00:22:07 and they need to Al goes to a party with milk and gets nervous when the women start taking jello shots in their pussy He doesn't know what to do. He doesn't know how to square this with his Muslim faith Drinking tequila out of a woman's belly button really tests his religion next week on the United States of Al It's the worst show in the world other than Le Brea. Have you seen this thing Le Brea? No, no, it's a show where the I think there's a sinkhole and then three then people read the read Read the description of this a massive sinkhole opens up in the middle of la separating a family between two worlds

Starting point is 00:22:54 The mother and son fall into an unexplainable Primeval land alongside a group of strangers trying to figure out where they are and how to get back home Left above is a daughter who barely manages to survive the disaster and the father Who's troubled past and hallucinations make him an unlikely choice to help solve the mystery and reunite the family What? But when he realizes his visions might just be the key to finding their loved ones time will be the only thing that stands in their way This show is about a hole

Starting point is 00:23:22 That opened up and people fell into it into a world with dinosaurs This is the biggest show on tv right now And I know a kid in it was like a nice kid But I do think it has to be canceled and he has to be homeless because this is truly a horrible horrible thing So this is the biggest show and squid game the show on netflix Perhaps I don't know anything about squid game But all I know is that Le Brea is about people falling in a hole and landing In the land before time

Starting point is 00:23:51 And they're like running around fighting like big prehistoric animals. I mean look at the Look at the Le Brea I mean Is there anything stupider than this? Who is working like? They don't know what to do anymore So they're just like yeah, whatever man. Let's just Yeah, it's a hole that opens up and everybody falls into it and

Starting point is 00:24:20 They fight dinosaurs and the data is hallucinations and they unlock the key to the mystery What's the key to the miss? We don't know we'll figure out in season four. Leave us alone It's embarrassing and salt bay is losing his mind suggesting that he's becoming an inspiration to millions of children Salt Bay is now saying This is his quote now everybody wants to be a butcher because of me Now if you ask your kid, they want to be salt bay. They see me as an idol I'm an inspiration to a lot of people in a very short period of time Salt bay. Let me correct you. You're an inspiration to absolutely no one

Starting point is 00:24:55 No child wants to be you I've never been to salt bay's restaurants He had one viral video where he was salting meat. That was it. Well, we know that But have you ever been to his restaurants? Well, it's these restaurants where I guess on a good day He walks around from table to table and he has like a A big sword. This is true. And then he just lobs women's clits off with his sword I mean this is

Starting point is 00:25:28 Great, but people like it people love it He lobs clits of women off and he performs Clitorectomies of women eating in the restaurant and people like it and then he salts the clit I just personally yeah, I think it's a little backwards, but people like it Imagine eating an assault bay restaurant like unironically Going there and going like I'm excited for this I'm excited

Starting point is 00:26:03 The eye-popping prices assault bay's new london restaurant. I could an $850 stake and a $15 red bull. Well, here's the deal I am a fan of raising the prices of food Till it becomes comical. I do like that There's something that's very fitting about raising the prices of food so that they become so ridiculous And insane. I remember when stakes used to be like in the high 30s Then they were in the mid 40s for a while now then they were in the 50s now like they're 80 dollars $72 for a steak. Some of them are well north of a hundred dollars depending on the cut That you get depending if it's wagyu or not wagyu, you know, like

Starting point is 00:26:46 It it's crazy But this is what they want like if you're an idiot and you're dumb enough to go to salt base restaurant You should pay thousands of dollars for that The steak should be two Thousands because you're already dumb enough to go right like that's the marketing meeting like when they talk to salt pay They go listen These people are already stupid enough to walk in the door of this restaurant

Starting point is 00:27:13 You've proved absolutely nothing about your ability to do anything other than like Let salt trickle down your fucking forearm onto a piece of meat So the fact that people are going to this means they're idiots and idiots and they're rich enough And they'll pay any amount of money. So let's just start charging eight hundred and fifty dollars for a steak And why not why not i'm for this in a big way Somebody tweeted it's cheaper to fly and have food at salt base turkish restaurant than to go to the london one Yeah, the london one's very expensive

Starting point is 00:27:54 I Love when you now by the way somebody said that salt bay, and I don't know if this is true Is a very popular halloween costume Is this is it could this possibly be true? Let's see here I mean Let me hit news to see if it's like I mean i'm not seeing anybody write anything about it supposedly

Starting point is 00:28:21 Salt Bay's I hey, I was uh I'm an inspiration to children all over the world Has something to do with the fact that people are dressing up as him First of all kids don't want to be uh restaurateurs They want to be like firemen, right? They want to be like like garbage men. They like things with trucks men Little girls want to be like princesses, and I'm not saying this is always the case. I don't want to Reinforce the gender binary, but a lot of people the children don't want to they're not like thinking clearly You know what I mean like what kind of children are an inspiration

Starting point is 00:29:00 Imagine if you asked your son or daughter like what do you want to be and they go well? You know what I really like this guy salt bay. He doesn't really do anything and everybody goes to his restaurants They spend 900 dollars on steak, so I wish I could be like him Because it's really spectacle like you your three-year-old tells you this they'd be they'd be terrified Yeah, if your three-year-old just looks you can go the world is primarily spectacle Salt bay really exemplifies this wouldn't you say you go what? Kids want to be like spider-man when they grow up. They don't want to be a some freak This is a guy by the way like you know mario batali it came out that mario batali had a rape room

Starting point is 00:29:38 Yes, what do you think's coming about salt bay eventually? It's gonna come out that salt bay was like a cannibal who liked carving women up and and eating them Where does he come from salt turkey interesting Salt bay well we wish him the best he's a uh He's a figure that uh nurse read yeah, I mean Turkish chef. Yeah, it's a power of instagram good for him Good for him He made a lot of money all you need is one viral video on instagram that gets people going

Starting point is 00:30:21 Truly all you need is one viral video one on instagram And and and you can hawk your products to morons Who want to feel something before the end? And that's what his restaurant's about People in his restaurant. They're just like this with the phone. Oh, yeah Look look where we are. Look at salt bay People really have so little going on in their life that it's exciting

Starting point is 00:30:51 So we're excited about the many saints of newark, and we hope it's good We know several people that will really kill themselves if it's not good. It's true. They're seeing it the first day it comes out People get really excited about these things. That's that's a big part of their life Like I was in uh new york with people and they went this is where they film the sopranos Like that's the entire way they interface with the world is a show And I love the sopranos. I think it's probably the greatest show ever made, but I haven't you know rewatched it 17 times And I'm not going to see you know I didn't buy my tickets six months ago to see the many saints in newark for the first day

Starting point is 00:31:26 But I understand that people do it's like that irishman movie where people were really overly invested You know it's enough already to me. I think it's enough for I think it's overkill I haven't even seen the movie and I'm going to go out and just say already like I didn't need the prequel To tony soprano's life. I just didn't care. It didn't mean anything to me I thought it was a brilliant piece of art. We don't need to make more of it than what it was right We don't need it's not a philosophy of life. I don't think or it shouldn't be I don't think we need that I think we need to just enjoy it for what it is Which is great art and then move away step away

Starting point is 00:32:03 We don't need to get to soprano's cookbook. We don't need to you know talk about fech lamana We don't need to do any of that. We don't need to start going through The episodes that have changed our lives. I think we just really need to move on But again, it's you know people are putting a little too much Into it in my opinion, but I could be wrong. Maybe it's the greatest film that's ever been made James gandalfini's son is in it. Why I don't know And philip seamer hoppin son is now in things licorice pizza. What are we doing? Why why are we putting it? They're fucking the children

Starting point is 00:32:36 Why in gods? It makes me hate the legends that died We're giving your kid aren't these people the same people that talk about how unfair everything is and inequality And they're always voting for democrats because they're gonna fix the inequality and there's so many concentrations of wealth And all they do is is fucking give dead people's kids jobs that are already rich Christ almighty enough. They're already fucking rich. He's not a genius philip seamer It's hoppin son's not a genius. His name is fucking cooper. He's clearly not a genius Genius skips many generations. Okay, like all of them God forbid we get an actor who's been in fucking the grind for years

Starting point is 00:33:21 Sleeping on a fucking floor trying to get this job who may be the next philip seamer hoffman. Maybe let's do that Okay, what are you? How do you cast things now ancestry dot com? This is absurd It's stupid and disgusting all the things you people portend to care about you don't It's just a cheap fucking trick to get people out to the fucking movies Well, how about make a good fucking movie instead of using these cheap fucking tricks? Okay, I have no beef with gandalfini's son and I have no beef with Cooper hoffman or whatever But jesus christ already. Why are we doing this? They're not the best candidates. It's absolutely impossible

Starting point is 00:34:06 That they are the best candidates for the job There's no fucking way They're gonna keep doing this They're just gonna keep giving roles to children whose parents are legends who've died Here's what I love about stand-up comedy. I know I won't mention names There are legends whose children do stand-up comedy no one cares about them and that's so important Because it is kind of a little bit of a meritocracy. Isn't it? Yeah, isn't it? Mm-hmm

I'm I'm a little sick of

Starting point is 00:36:00 chalamet I'm just sick of it. Yeah, can't we have something else? Can we have something else other than this twink who doesn't age? This pixie who does not age that must prance through every fucking movie that's ever been made Is there anything else? That's all Is there anyone else that can do this job? please And not Hansel and gretel elgort not him either. Can we get someone else, please?

Starting point is 00:36:29 Other than timothy chalamet. What about cooper hoffman? What does cooper hoffman look like? I'll show you This is uh, that's him as a kid. So here's what he looks like in the movie right here He kind of looks like philip steamer hoffman and boogie knights. Just kind of the So if this is an offensive, why am I supposed to be offended that? Uh, like jamie diamonds kid has money Right. So when somebody at goldman sacks gives a job to their son, why is that supposed to offend me? You frauds. Why is that supposed to offend me if this doesn't offend me or shouldn't it all offend me?

Starting point is 00:37:13 I guess technically, yeah, one of the kids that got hired on snl's dad's they could produce your dsnl I don't really care about that I'm not even tweeted like enough already because the kid's funny the kid is funny And if I see these movies and these guys are really good in it I'll still say fuck them because it still should have went to You know, one of these other people I end up hating But one of the kids got snl, I forget, you know, one of those strange-looking kids from brooklyn that sketch group And

Starting point is 00:37:42 I forget the name it's unimportant, but uh, his dad's a producer on snl Adam sander collab and people yeah, and people people were like all to twist it up about that I'm like guys as to where the world works The guy with the dad gets the job and the kid's funny and their sketch group's funny I mean, they probably hate me or whatever, you know, it's like logical and brilliant, but um I just don't care like if I I'm just saying let's not care at all Like don't fucking ever come to me and start talking about like finance families then

Starting point is 00:38:12 Stop with this shit. Cut it out immediately If you're gonna do this and hollywood seems like they're gonna do this if we're just going to as a as a gimmick Give roles to dead people's kids Then I don't want to hear shit About fucking the presidency of george w bush Remember that one bush was the thing that was an entire narrative of like, how would you let this guy? Right, I'm sure this guy's a nice guy michael gandalfini. I'm sure he's lovely. I don't know a nice kid. I don't know. I don't care Take your money and get out of here

Starting point is 00:38:53 Can anyone take their goddamn money and leave please Is anything ever enough for christ How many generate like what let it go We didn't need this fucking movie The many saints in the work What We didn't need it. Yeah, we didn't need el Camino either the breaking bad one with jesse pink. We did not need that

Starting point is 00:39:21 I didn't even I didn't even dignify that but with even like Letting it hold any space in my head. We do not need that. Who's that actor? Uh, erin paul. We do not need more of him We do not need that We do not need lebrea and then one of the kids in lebrea I think is a sweet kid, but you you have to be homeless and the show has to be cancelled. Sorry The jack kid. Oh jack martin. Yeah, he's a nice kid. I've met him. He's an actor in LA But

Starting point is 00:39:52 He's not a bad actor probably but the show is atrocious And I believe it should be cancelled And that he should have to work at like astro burger for a year to pay for what he's done To just flip a few put a few put a mayo on a bun Make a nice burger to pay for what you've done to us with this show Where people fall in a hole

Starting point is 00:40:23 You know And why should he have a chance let some of the let some uh some dead guys can't do it Why have a new actor do it let's have a debt let's have someone who died Let's have their kid do it That's all That seems to make sense, you know One exception is michael k williams son Michael k williams

Starting point is 00:40:48 I don't know if he has a son, but maybe if he has a son he can do something. Okay. That's my one exception Oh, yeah, that would be cool. That might be cool. That's one exception It rarely doesn't skip a generation. You have like larry mcmurray james mcmurray. It's hard to think about it. Listen Princess diana died right and what's her son doing over here? Wasting everyone's goddamn time Him and his wife were running around spending millions of dollars on security. Okay I don't know what they're afraid. They're afraid that someone's gonna come near them and be racist So they have to spend millions and millions of dollars

Starting point is 00:41:31 Going to new york city hotel. She you know, she's spent 75 k on the on the baby shower at the presidential suite at the mark You're sitting there eating caviar and They are running around here. So I just just stop talking about fairness and inequality and the death tax and all this shit like Stop this please stop it. Please I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm just uh, you know Maybe they're good. Maybe maybe I'll see the many saints of new york But again, the gay storyline shocked me. It stunned me I was not prepared for it. It was very interesting. There's a scene in the thing

Starting point is 00:42:11 Where tony is just getting I mean, it's brutal and he's screaming. Oh Oh Fuck He's screaming as he's getting fucked. There is no god. He's going there is no fucking god There is no god. I hate god and I just go, you know, it's too much Tindallandcomedy.com live tickets Uh, uh, we're on tour. I just shut up and go into the show as I don't I don't even care anymore

Starting point is 00:42:42 I have to go to the Ontario improv Ontario, california is one of the biggest dumps in america, but the crowds are fucking phenomenal because they have nothing to live for Um, you know, when does this come out? Uh tomorrow the saturday Yeah, it's over by the time this comes out. It's over go to milwaukee, wisconsin get tickets folks I'll be the next weekend spokane washington, seattle washington.

Starting point is 00:43:13 many more iowa city madison louisville, los angeles baker's field I do want to maybe say something about this iowa city thing Okay, but we don't have the time it's 357. We got like three minutes if you want it's not enough What i'm going to say is i'm going to discuss it on the patreon The people that run the theater in iowa city sent out some type of email apologizing for booking me because some members of their like Uh corn community were offended by things I had said of course they're not canceling the show because they want money Correct. They're hypocrites

Starting point is 00:43:49 And they sent out an email You know and they said that I had like questioned the vaccine or something I'm vaccinated. I never said don't get the vaccine. I've told people to make their own choices I've also said the vaccine's not working as well as everybody thought it you know would and by the way That is something that I believe fiser would agree with. I mean, this is legitimately crazy Um, I've said people should make their own decisions about that and about everything about voting about everything I don't care what you do There's good reasons. I'm sure that people have for not taking the vaccine and then there's good reasons that people have for taking it

Starting point is 00:44:23 I don't know your health and your medic. It's not my fucking problem. I'm not your doctor Um, and then he also said that I said something racist about black lives matter I believe I suggested that the person Who was running black lives matter should not have spent the millions of dollars buying four houses I said that to me rice's mother said we didn't see any of the money. Maybe she's a racist too I don't know. I guess everyone's racist. Um, but this theater of you know who these people are in Iowa I mean, they they're the widest biggest pussies in the world who are pseudo intellectuals worthless people they live in Iowa

Starting point is 00:44:57 They're in the art scene and they live in Iowa. That's how seriously they take doing things. Um, and they're embarrassments They're embarrassments to life these people. Let's be very honest. They're embarrassing their embarrassments And they send out an article because some fat chick in the theater program Didn't like something I said. Well, how about moving out of Iowa and trying to make it for real? Okay, dummy move to new york move to la and try to get on labrea or whatever the hell you want to do But you send an email out and you didn't cancel the show. So I don't know what I'm going to do I'm looking for other venues. I'm angry about this. I'm not happy about it. Um They're like treating me like it's weird to send an email out and be like, uh, he's questioned the response to the pandemic

Starting point is 00:45:42 I'm like, I didn't do that. I don't even know what the fuck that means Um, this is weak. It's truly weak that they did this. I'm unhappy about it. They're slimy serpent-like Uh behavior to do this to send an email out on the slow On the slide and then you look for the comments. Where are all these I can't find anything Where are all these comments on social media? Instagram the twitter? No one's mad. Where is everyone that's so angry about this in your pretend world? In Iowa in their inbox shut up Iowa give me a break, please

Starting point is 00:46:16 You're lucky. I'm going there. We should use it as a nuclear testing facility The iowa democratic primary all these people care about it They have the iowa caucus where all these idiots every year they get a bunch of morons in a house And the democrats go in there and people are like, well, I'm concerned about trade and my daughter's non-binary And then you have to pretend that these fucking people matter these corn fed Slabs no one gives a shit shut the fuck up And we have to pretend that they matter because of this dumb electoral college or whatever And I think the electoral college is good because you do need some proportional representation

Starting point is 00:46:51 I'm not trying to tell people in these small states what to do But the idea that we're supposed to care about these fucking monsters is just not true And that's they they derive their sense of like political importance from the iowa caucus Where they all have to convince each other it's not even a secret bout they all have to convince each other and like They'll have to debate and somebody's like pete budge Is in the diner and he saw me and he said that he was gonna Be fair to the little babies that are different It's like all right you shut the fuck up

Starting point is 00:47:24 So i'm you know i'm in a one-sided war with this dumb theater that just sent an email But of course they don't want to cancel the show because they need they need uh money because tickets are selling Yeah tickets are selling and they they need money to pay their 400 a month mortgage or something You know Whatever anyway, I'll be I'll be a malibu ho Good night
