Oh, Nipal, 3 and it is Peter to something.
What are we doing here, Ben?
What's with the candles?
Okay, well, today's going to be a very special episode.
So I thought I would start it off with some, I brought these candles.
These are very important.
This is Saint Michael Archangel, San Miguel Archangel. This is these are candles that I used to
For when the power goes out, okay, but I figured they could serve a dual purpose for
Is this because you get scared when the power comes out?
So you need the archangel to defend you in battle. Yes, be your protection. Well, because I'm doing battle against evil spirits
None of which existed in my apartment mind you. Okay. I'm not claiming any of that shit or whatever
because that's what people want TikTok say. I'm not claiming any bad shit. But anyway,
I brought these candles because my trading has been dog shit. I have an eaten lunch in three weeks maybe.
I know. I'm starving. I haven't taken you out to lunch because my trading has been so terrible. Okay. So I thought, you know what I could do?
What's that pal?
I could bring these candles, get the little janky weegee board here.
Sure.
I want to try to summon the spirit of David Koch, the dead Koch brother, from famously
from Koch industries, who was just an all around great person.
Beloved.
Yeah, and I'm sure he's definitely not in hell.
No.
And I wanted to reach out to him if I could to get some advice.
Let's try it.
I'd like to talk to the dead coke brother.
Yeah, so I've got this thing here.
I don't know.
I'm not sure if this is going to work, but I figured that, you know, we just got to like
shake it out.
I don't know how this works.
So you can ask David Coke gotta like shake it out. I don't know how this works. So you can- That's David Koch.
That's David Koch.
Sir, okay, I guess we just start with like,
hello, sir.
David, are you kidding?
No, because we don't know yet.
We've gotta like invite him in or something.
So we,
we invite you, sir, to come.
Do you hear that?
Oh my god.
I thought I heard something for a minute.
I guess it wasn't anything.
It might have just been my tummy.
Sir, uh, I'm, my name is Ben, and I'm just looking for some advice.
Please, if, uh, if you're out there, it'd be really great.
If, if you could just make yourself
known and give us a sign that you're out there because uh could really use some assistance right now
mr. Coke and I know that you're a big superstar billionaire you were a big superstar billionaire guy
who knew his shit so if you could just come on out here.
I got some advice for you too.
What the fuck was that?
David?
Didn't sound like that.
That didn't sound like David.
That sounded like, uh, who was that?
What the fuck?
That sounded like Charlie Munk Charlie.
Who's trying to reach us?
That was Charlie Munk.
I got some advice for you too.
Charlie.
Don't wait.
Charlie, you're not even dead yet
How did you get...
How did you get early access to heaven?
Or the afterlife?
Maybe he's so old, he can uh...
He's so old
He can connect to both realms
Yeah, but wait
Charlie, okay, sorry Charlie
Did you say something?
I got some advice for you too
Okay, you want to give us some...
You want to give me some advice?
I guess, uh, your advice is as good as anyone's
Let's hear it Charlie. What whatever. What do you got?
When you have your own retirement account. Yeah, and your friendly advisor suggests you put all the money in the bit to Bitcoin. Oh
Just say no
Okay, man. It sounded like there's a lot of other people there with him
What's going on? I'm in hell.
That's screaming.
Well, I guess this isn't working as well as I thought it would, because I wanted to
talk to David Koch, the very beloved, beloved, but neverland, is that the good one?
Oh, yeah, my levelant would be the bad one, which, but neverland is that the good one?
Oh, yeah, my level, it would be the bad one, which he's definitely not, you know, all the oil shit that he did in the actively fighting against climate change reform.
And he's in heaven.
Yeah, he's fully there.
So I guess, you know, maybe we could, I think we need everyone who did a bad tweet
about him when he died is in hell. Yeah, that's right
Well, maybe I think maybe we need some real help. We were doing we need some help from the experts. Let's start it off. Yeah, yeah, let's get him in here
We'll share as we're just getting hammered this morning. Every day they're telling you.

This is Garrett Watts, a good friend of mine,
a good friend of the show.
You know who he is, so.
What does that mean, a good friend of the show?
It means that you're here, that automatically makes you
a friend of the show. You gave us a lot of money
when we were first starting out
Yeah, yeah, he seated us. We live on Garrett's couch
For a while while we were trying to get the show off the ground. I remember and we appreciate that. Yeah, it's still happening
You guys are coming over tonight, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's great. Give me give me the soft pillow. Oh first or no
I like firm. Okay, because otherwise my head sinks too much and I wake up with neck pain, but to answer your question
Yeah, yeah, I'm really curious what was happening here. We were trying to summon the ghost of
David Coke I was gonna say cock is coke
Here here here you go you can get the David Archangel by the way while we're here
Hey Glenn everybody check out the disclaimer in the description setting you said part you click see more in the
Yeah, you you were trying to you click see more in the,

Yeah, but these, I don't think these are the right ones.
Well, I'll go out some longer.
Oh, no, no, no, no, yeah, you'll get a property brother
at best with this setup.
And I had not even the right one.
I actually don't know what that means.
Not even the one who's dating so he dates you now.
Is that what's happening?
They're married.
Oh, they're married.
Oh, can I tell you a story? Oh, they're married. Oh, really?
Oh, can I tell you a story?
This is a Hollywood story?
Yeah, sure.
One time I was at an after party for,
who was it, like an Emmy after party?
And Zoe De Chanel was standing over,
like she had this big fluffy white dress on,
and she was standing over a candle.
And like the candle started to like send her dress
and I shoved her whole dress.
And I said, oh, Zoe De Chanel,
you're about to catch on fire. And she went, oh, Zoe, Deschanel, you're about to catch on fire and she went,
oh, thank you, wouldn't it?
What?
Wow, that's so, in my mind, I saved her life.
You did.
You may have, you've been very well.
You've been very well.
You've been very well.
I've heard her, thank you.
Which in turn, you know, that could have caught
the rest of her, humans are very flammable.
Well, and I'm aware that story was like a mile three,
but I, I love this.
Thanks. No, that's pretty good. she never get hollywood stories in this
yeah i don't have oh i i've got i've got some stories like that but i don't want to bore you
with that no no please i'm riveted really one time i asked you know david caradine from kill bill he
plays bill yeah he killed himself and drinking off well hang on take it easy one time i said to his face
um did you have anything to do with Kill Bill?
I asked David Carodyne, who's Bill. Did you have anything to do with Kill Bill?
Why?
Because you were trying to figure out who he was.
Yeah. Okay.
But in my defense, first of all, I was a little boy, practically, when I asked him.
And secondly, it doesn't show him in the first movie. And the second one, like,
had to come out yet. And so he was sitting at this like Comic Con style thing
with all these photos of Kill Bill behind him.
Like, you know, the movie, the movie, what else?
And yeah, so I just walked up to him,
like, sir, did you have anything to do with Kill Bill?
I thought maybe it was like an old stunt man.
Or a producer or something.
Or a producer.
Yeah, what did he say?
Yes, did he say it?
Oh, no, he just, and turned away.
Yeah.
He gave me nothing, and he, even nothing was too much for what I deserved in that moment
I have a bad one from when I was a kid. I was a huge Michael J. Foxman. Oh love spin city love this movies
Wait, have you told this story before did I I don't know but go on. Yeah, well, I don't want to tell it again
Well, I certainly haven't I know but I'll make it quick. I'll make it quick
And we read a we read a devil's game And there's like a bar downstairs and a new Jersey devil's hockey, huh?
and
The bartender was like that's Michael J. Fox over there. I was like, oh my god
And I brought over a napkin. It was the only only thing I could find and I was so young
I didn't even realize you know the Parkinson's thing had happened and everything.
And I asked him to sign it
and he kind of had trouble signing it
and he was like, sorry, that's the best I could do.
Oh, that's sucks.
Oh, stupid asshole.
Yeah, did you see the curb enthusiasm episode with him?
No, they really lean into the Parkinson's.
No.
He's living above Larry David
and he's like stomping around a lot
and Larry David's like, can you not do that? And he says, I got Parkinson's LD. What do you think? Oh, no. So,
but he was nice about it. Yeah. And I was very happy to meet him. Thank you for the story.
I loved it. And even if the listeners and our viewers have heard it, I had a great time
with it. Yeah. Great. And that's all that matters. Yeah. They gave me shit last time because
Emil told a like a 12 minute long story about...
Did you really?
No, it was...
No.
That's okay.
Here's the deal.
I gotta explain you something.
Okay, here's...
What?
He barely lets me talk.
And you should...
Shut up for a second.
That's not true.
And you should see him when no one's around.
When the show ends, he corners me.
And he pushes me and he says,
I want us to be like pen and teller.
And you're teller.
Like he wants me to be that little quiet guy.
And he says, except I'm gonna be more libertarian.
Yeah.
And I don't like circumcision.
And I like to.
I like circumcision.
Yeah, yeah, I love it.
Sure.
That's what he does to me.
This, okay, guys, let's get back on track.
Hey everybody, we gotta ask you,
let's get some janitorial stuff out of the way.
Like, you mean custodial?
Custodial, thank you.
That's okay, that's okay.
Yeah, it's the same shit, right?
At the end of the day, you're cleaning up
Barf with saw dust.
Do you remember in school,
when like in grade school,
when there would be a kid,
kids barfed all the time in school remember that
and they would put that dust down.
Yeah, the worst.
That dust, oh, I'm at best.
I'd say just leave the vomit.
That dust was worse.
Yeah, it's weird.
Oh, spooky.
That was that is one of the worst materials probably.
Did you ever puke in school?
No.
Yeah, me neither.
I never shit in school either, you know why?
Why?
My freak ass K through eight school where I went
Nukem Academy in Long Beach had no doors on the stalls really I like that
I think I've said this yeah you're on here. Oh really no stall doors
So God forbid if you had to poop you would get a crowd of fifth graders just pointing at you
Guys like wetting paper towels and chucking them over the thing and then I remember this
bookhead Andy McDonald had to shit and I remember looking I remember seeing what's all
the commotion in the bathroom and then going and seeing them in their school.
Leave me alone guys!
My stomach's fucking killing!
And I remember thinking Andy what are you doing?
Why would you try to poop at school?
And I didn't even realize that man man, it must have been an emergency.
I don't want to ever meet the guy who designed that. I've got an idea.
Yeah, that's spooky. No doors for these children.
Hear me out.
Damn.
What was the idea there? Maybe it was in like,
I have no idea.
The 20s when they were like,
The 20s when they were like,
Maybe it was once upon a time and they just didn't update them.
You know, like, we don't want people smoking cigarettes in there.
Or, that's not the 20s. They encouraged that, right? Probably back then it was like, All right, kids we don't want people smoking cigarettes in there or that's not the 20s They encouraged that right probably back then it was like all right kids cigarette break
Medicine you got a headache. Yeah, yeah cigarette. Hey, sometimes a cigarette is medicine
You got a poop in the morning. That shit'll make it flow right through you for those of you
Don't know. Yeah cigarettes will make you poop. I think a lot about that. Do you smoke? Hey wait one at a time boys
Yeah, sorry.
What's that?
Do cigarettes wait?
No, wait, what were you gonna say?
I'm gonna fight both of you right now.
No, do you smoke cigarettes?
Wait, when I, when I,
no, that wasn't what I was speaking of.
I've been so diplomatic, like a politician right now.
No, we like it.
Yeah, sometimes when I drink.
Yeah, I, but, but, but what was it going to say? Oh, you know, I just think about cigarettes a lot, because, no, not because I drink. Yeah, all right. But what was it going to say?
Oh, no, I just think about cigarettes a lot. Because, no, not because I want them,
but because I just think they're really funny,
like culturally.
They're funny.
Sikarettes are funniest after you see
people smoking cigars.
Yeah, because then they look teeny weeny.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's cool.
Like a person.
Oh, my little ear piece wasn't in.
How do you feel about hearing my own voice better now badly?
Yeah, that was my question.
Welcome to the club, dude.
Yeah, sucks to ask.
How do you feel about video podcasters who smoke cigars on their podcast?
Oh, take it easy.
Yeah, that's so flexy.
Yeah, I hope I get invited on one, and I have to ask them.
Can you guys quit it?
Yeah, there's an episode where that happens. Oh, I get it. I get it. I hope I get invited on one when I have to ask them. Can you guys quit it? Yeah. If there's an episode where that happens,
oh, I get it, I get it, I suppose, but come on.
Cigars suck.
Oh, it's the worst.
Oh, I can't with big cigars.
Yeah.
The smoke gets in my eyes.
Well, I was thinking about, when I said that I think
about cigarettes a lot, well, I don't want to get all
whatever down this rabbit hole,
but I think about how cigarettes are like techno.
This sounds so heavy.
Like technology is basically, like right now, technology is what cigarettes were, you know, cigarettes are like technology. This sounds so heavy. Like technology is basically, like right now, technology is what cigarettes were, you
know, in like the 1920s, like how we just, oh, it's like we hand kids.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Absolutely destroying them and us and we're all addicted and like no one cares because
there's no science on it.
So we're just like scrolling until we're just like numb shells of ourselves.
And I think that's what, you know,
cigarettes did to lungs, what like scrolling is doing to our brains. And I would say it's like
probably words. And what's wild is the tech companies have way more money and lobbying power
than the cigarette companies ever did. My gosh, so I don't mean to take like the opening of the
podcast and that to like shit. We love that. No go whatever the right way. So how do you feel about that as a content creator
who wants people on their screens?
Well, yes.
I mean, okay, I feel great about it.
But because I think that the only reason,
I'm a really cagey internet creator,
like I just uploaded my first video in like seven months,
like two weeks ago, and it's went great.
Then Ben watched it.
It was great.
Did you shut up? All two hours and 13 minutes? All two hours, 13 minutes. Oh, we saw it. And it went great. Great. It was great. Did you shut up?
We did it in.
All two hours and 13 minutes?
All two hours, 13 minutes.
We saw it.
I was at his house yesterday.
Dude, I made eye contact with him when he said that
and I feel like he meant it.
We saw your pre-icidant start.
That was a,
well, I won't blow it for any of these days.
No, oh, yeah.
Cause it's a good little plot point.
Better hurry.
You better freaking hurry.
But I like to sort of create, like, if I have a purpose in this life, like I don't have
any, like I'm not married, I don't have kids I never want to, and I don't have any,
like I don't even have any animals.
Oh, I do have a prank mantis, that's exciting.
But yeah, my purpose in this world is to sort of like, I feel it's just like make really
cool for now on the internet to make cool things there.
And you know, I don't know.
I feel like that thing that you were talking about earlier of like, you know, people's obsession
with it and like, oh, how do you feel as a content creator?
I think about that a lot.
Sometimes it can, it's like has the potential to absolutely shut me down.
I think about it a lot as well.
I mean, I think it's all, but I mean, I hate my phone.
So I just started, my phone is now black and white, so I don't wanna look at it.
Fantastic.
I'm all over those subreddits about that stuff
in the surf and surf.
And I, yeah.
So I'm constantly trying to get away from it
as much as possible, but our show relies on people
watching us and.
Yeah, so you gotta remember to like, comment,
and subscribe, because we are gonna do a new segment
where we take the top comment every week, I'm not kidding.
We take the top comment every week, I'm not kidding. We take the top comment every week,
and we will blast that top comment.
Yeah, top comment of the week.
But this is different,
this is very different than like social media.
TikTok is very, you know, like,
I love TikTok, but I hated it the same way.
Yeah, but it commands your attention
and the addiction to it and absolutely. But I sort of like to, I don't know,
I think at my best, and at my best,
I don't know if I'm actually doing this,
but all I'm trying to do on the internet
is inspire like some curiosity in people.
That's it.
I'm just showing people that a grown-ass man
is like very curious and going into haunted places
and doing silly things and not abiding by any weird roles.
And so I think I'm to say, you're whole,
you're like infectious.
You walk into the room and it's a,
oh God, you're very,
bless.
It's so nice.
Thanks, my God.
Yeah, very infectious.
Yeah, I feel sick right now.
No, infectious the wrong word.
It's, no, no, no, no.
You're so magnetic.
Positive and happy and,
oh, it's a nice energy to have on set.
You're definitely someone if I were a good ghost,
I'd be like, this guy's all right.
Yeah, yeah, you would be safe.
Well, like, I thank you, I'm sorry I interrupted.
No, no, go for it.
Really?
You're fucking hell, just go.
Okay, no, I think that that's,
thanks for saying that because you just said,
if you were a ghost, you'd be into that.
So I make like haunted content on YouTube for like, I know, I'm not telling you guys, you just said if you were a ghost, you'd be into that. So I make haunted content on YouTube for,
like, I know I'm not telling you guys,
you just told me.
It's weird being on a podcast
because sometimes you realize
like, oh, other people are listening,
you know what I mean?
Anyways, we hope.
Yeah, but I try, like when I go into haunted places,
I sort of, like I can't stand that stuff
that I'm not gonna like name names with.
Like ghost, hunter shows and stuff
and they're like, what was your name?
How did you die in here?
I hate that stuff so much
because I always try to go into haunted places
and my strategy is like being really sweet,
like complimenting the ghost
or like, I don't even really talk to them
so I think that's it.
I feel like ghosts are really smart
because they're omnipresent
and so I don't like to be like,
talk down to them like weird baby dogs.
I like to just like vibe amongst them and be nice
and see if they like shove a lamp over or something
and I go, ooh, good.
So do you believe in heaven?
Oh, I believe in everything.
Heaven hell.
Well, I believe in everything
and nothing at the same time.
I'm very like agnostic.
I was raised Mormon, so I had a lot of that stuff.
Like yeah, raised Mormon.
Yeah, yeah, in the South, as a gay Mormon boy in the South.
It was an interesting upbringing, but I was raised Mormon light.
What does that mean?
I don't have any of that weird animosity here for Mormon people sometimes.
My parents were super chill.
We would go and see already movies sometimes.
Oh, wow.
That is Mormon light. If it was just violence or. Well, like if it was just, you know,
if it was just like violence or cursing,
my parents would be like,
all earth, it was like historical.
But then as I got older, like the gap wide end
of just like, yeah, whatever.
And then eventually I was watching Kill Bill and loving it.
But for the first few years, Kill Bill came out.
I was like, I was like battling with myself to be like,
I really want to see it.
But what does that mean?
To see a movie that's already there.
Well yeah, I was just the Mormon, you know, baby.
Damn, anyways, where in the South?
Memphis, Tennessee.
Yeah, I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and I loved it.
Oh God, did I love it.
I'm surprised you don't have an accent.
Did you ever have an accent?
Wait, it comes out a bit when I drink.
Ah.
Yeah, it's kind of fun.
It's not that I'm suppressing it.
I don't do that stuff at all.
But I was raised in Florida for six years
and meant this in all these different places.
So I don't really have a firm anywhere accent.
But yeah, I do use a lot of Southern mannerisms
and y'all and stuff like that.
Yeah, so do we all the time.
Oh, that's fun.
When a meal drinks the racism comes out.
Oh my God. Oh, fan, is that your. When a meal drinks the racism comes out, that's what happens. Oh, man.
Oh, man.
Is that your way of saying that in my New Jersey comes out?
How interesting.
No, it doesn't.
He's the same exact person when he's drunk.
He's a danceist more.
He seems like he'd be a very sweet drunk.
Yeah.
I kiss a lot.
We, we, all, the three of us seems like we'd all be nice
drunks.
Oh, yeah, I'm a great.
I, I, we, why am I acting like we haven't drank together?
I know my,
A, I know my limits.
Yeah, which is huge.
You gotta know your limits.
Oh, what?
You gotta, you gotta know when to stop drinking.
I bought a little breathalyzer from Amazon
that I thrown my pocket before I go out.
Yeah.
And it just looks like you're hitting a little vape or something.
And yeah, you just do it and it tells you like,
you know, where you're at.
Yeah.
And then you're gravy.
You know, once you hit a certain point.
Because what do you mean keeping that?
Well, I don't know.
Oh, okay.
But, but, but if the number's not too hot, no, seriously, I read this article that talked
about, um, this was such valuable information, and I can't believe I didn't learn it sooner
in life.
This article that I read that talked about the point of diminishing returns is that once
you get over, like, I think it was zero point four alcohol alcohol that don't quote me on that because I could be so wrong
People are gonna like die if they take that advice. I don't point zero for it
Yeah, right that one Google it, but but they said after that
There's nothing the alcohol can do for you. It's not gonna make you feel any better. It's not gonna do anything
It's just gonna make you like feel worse tomorrow and make you feel sick and everything so I was like whoa
That's great. Why am I learning that at this point in life? So I carry that little like have you ever seen another round?
No, tell me about it. It's the Mads Michelson movie. It's a it's it's I think it's Danish Right, why am I learning that at this point in life? So I carry that little, um. Have you ever seen another round?
No, tell me about it.
It's the Mads, Michelson movie.
It's a, it's, I think it's Danish,
but they basically, they, they talk about that article.
It is where, what?
And they start, they initially start drinking all the time
and keeping at that level.
And then they obviously start upping it a little bit.
Yeah.
Is that the new one that came out,
or is it a wedding or something?
It's like probably, you probably came out in like 2019
or something like that.
We are a huge mads, michaelson.
We are a mads, mads, loves it.
I think he's, I got something on him that you two don't,
I think he's Foxy as hell.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
He's so hot.
Have you seen riders of justice?
No.
Oh, you gotta watch this, riders of justice.
Well, let's watch it right now.
It's so, yeah, let's say fuck it.
Wait, I want it so, okay, so normally this is a finance podcast
and we will get around to some of that shit.
Sure, sure.
But also, we do like mail bag episode sometimes
where we don't even touch on that, so who gives a shit?
And if you're one of those people
who's gonna be out there saying some shit
in the comments about like,
well, this is, was hardly to find it
You can suck it, but also
We we still appreciate it. Yeah suck is
Don't go anywhere, but I did want to ask you okay, so fun little story
Yeah, and I wasn't sure if I should save it for after hours, which is our bonus episode, but
Years ago, I don't know if you remember this but no dancer your question already know
You you probably do
I used to live in mid-city here in Los Angeles and I threw a party at my house and oh you're talking about the ghost in your whole way
Yes, I remember I had I lived in a spooky house. I'm sorry
Was that like I'd be a terrible talk show host just like giving away like terrible?
Well, so it was like
2015 Well, so it was like 2015, yeah, it was it had to be 2015, but Garrett comes over and I like I said
I already had spooky vibes from the house. I'm agnostic when it comes to ghosts
I'm like, I don't know. I've never really experienced anything, but I just don't want to know if they're real
I'm petrified of seeing one cuz then I go fuck the real that was
Now I gotta live with this. Well everywhere I go, I gotta take into consideration
if I buy a house or if I'm moving to a new place.
Maybe there's ghosts, maybe that's the thing.
And I got this vibes from this house and you come in
and you go immediately, you're like,
oh man, your place is haunted and I went,
God damn it.
And then you went into my room,
wait, I gave you a little tour and you're like,
oh there's something going on in here and and I had this spooky big walking closet. Yeah, oh in here big time
And I was like that's what that's exactly where I got weird vibes from yeah, and I remember we sat in the dark with
Yeah, yeah, she walked out of the closet and then down the hall and went to the left
I remember wait, I got to take you to the the house I in. Ooh, it's the scariest place in the world.
Come on, let's go.
Pack up the mics.
So it was, we rented it when we moved to New Jersey
and it was, it was, are you from New Jersey?
Yeah, and it was one of the oldest houses in New Jersey.
I think the governor of New Jersey lived there for a bit.
Chris Christie?
No, no, the first governor of New Jersey.
Chris Christie was the first.
It's so old.
Oh, wow.
Chris Christie's the one with the baseball throwing picture, right?
Where he's really.
Oh, yeah, and he's really.
He's retuned.
I didn't even notice.
I just think the picture's funny.
I'm just kidding, I noticed.
Okay, that was good.
That is.
Go on.
And it's so old and so scary.
And sometimes there was like, there must be an opening in the top, because sometimes, I mean, Go on and it's so old and so scary and sometimes
There was like there must be an opening in the top because sometimes I mean not that often But we would come home and there would just be a bat on the wall. We'd have to put a box over it
Whoa, and we'd have to get rid of the bat. Was it a very long house? No, it was it tell me paint a picture
It was this white house with a black door
There was this white house with a back door, all like those old radiator furnace heating,
and then the attic was probably the scariest thing you've ever,
or not the attic, the basement.
I've never seen anything like it.
It's so, when you go down, it is so freaky.
I love the basement.
I, that's it.
He would, I,
No, no, no, but I mean like what, what, what, what,
I mean, I had a blast
with your story. You had bats. I thought I thought it was a riot. Did anybody ever do anything
like anything ever happen? What do you want? Ben, you wanted to find a hanged man in the
base. Or a ghost with chains. I have one. I have one ghost story. Go on. I would
didn't want to interrupt you if you had. I'm trying to rack my brain for creepy stuff.
Listen, I thought the bats were wonderful.
I had one spooky thing happen to me that mom if you're listening
or watching, go ahead.
If mom if you're listening or watching,
if you remember this sound off in the comments,
she never leaves a comment.
My mom sometimes leaves comments on my video, so lose her.
Damn, so fuck.
Damn it.
Mom, you hear that?
You gotta show up.
Yeah, Linda Watts has one up on you.
Vicki, come on.
Yeah, but they'll probably think it's someone else.
People like take our faces and then use our names and.
Oh, that's funny.
Like on the TMG Studios app, we have an app for podcasts
and everything and people, they'll be told, named Emil de Rosas.
And I'm like, I didn't write that.
And it's like, oh, that is so,
I saw someone on Tinder using my profile pictures.
And I was like, me?
Oh, I'm like a 7.2 at best.
I was like, me, got, stop.
Come on, you're tall, my gosh.
You're very handsome.
Yeah, dude, get that smile.
Look at those clean, yeah. You got, you look great handsome. Yeah, dude, get that smile. Look at those clean. Yeah, you got the great glasses.
So, I'm probably like 10 or 11 years old.
Oh, the ghost story.
Yeah, 10 or 11 years old.
I never really had anything happen to me.
Nobody in the family ever really had anything happen to us.
We were the second owners of this home.
As far as we knew,
nobody ever died in there or anything.
And that doesn't matter sometimes sure sure so
Excuse me. I had to get a little burpee out. We heard
so
Whole family. It's my three brothers and my two parents. We'll go out to dinner one night and
come home
I go up into my bedroom. We all had our own bedrooms. There's a five bedroom house.
Okay, weird. I go into my bedroom and I had my bed was up against one of the windows.
I move all the money bags. I move all the money out of the way.
But when you guys do your podcast, I don't want to interrupt your show.
Do you put spooky music underneath?
No, we should. Just this one. Just a whole time.
No, I'm just joking, but if you want me.
Well, Luke, can we get a little spooky sound
when I'm telling this story?
Oh, you're doing it live?
Yeah, why not?
Ooh.
Ooh.
Go on, go on, this is great.
We were originally going to fuck with you with sound effects
and have you go like, what is that?
And then gaslight you and go, what are you talking about?
Oh, that's a funny bit.
Yeah.
Why did you run?
Well, no, I'm like a...
I brought in the sound effects. I'm like a goldfish. I will forget that information. Yeah, you can still, I just ruined it. Well, no, I'm like a, I brought in the sound effects.
I'm like a goldfish.
I will forget that information.
Oh, it's like weird.
Yeah, forget it.
So, you have forget it, dude.
Yeah, so I come home and my bed is underneath the,
my bed is always underneath the window, beneath the window.
And I had curtains on the windows.
And the curtains had, there was two hooks and a rod.
So if you wanted to get the curtain off of the hooks,
you had to lift them off the hooks, right?
Yeah.
I come home and I turn on my light and I look and my,
the curtain is still on the rod and it is perfectly draped over my bed.
Oh, wonderful.
The only way for that to happen would be
is if you physically lifted it off the hooks
and like carefully draped it over the bed.
It could not have fallen, a, because like,
the windows weren't open, the dog was,
you know, the dog had never had a history
of doing anything like that.
And even then it would have been like, you know,
flung around, whatever. I just got a chill over my like that. And even then it would have been like, you know, flung around whatever.
I just got a chill over my body as soon as I saw it
because everything in my little peanut brain was like,
that's not normal or right?
That's not physics, that's not normal.
So I just called my mom in.
My mom comes in and looks at it
and what spooked me the most, she stood there
for like a good two minutes trying to figure out,
okay, how the fuck could this have happened?
She calls my dad over, my dad looks and he couldn't figure it out either. And then...
Wait, wait, were they messing with you?
No, they weren't messing with their little boy.
They would not, they don't, they didn't fuck around like that.
Okay.
Ever.
But then my mom just offered it to me.
You want to sleep in our bedroom?
I was like, yeah, I slept in their bedroom and that's it.
It was just spooky.
What about one of your brothers?
Was it Sam?
No, because we were all out to dinner together.
Oh.
We all came back home at the same time.
And yeah, nobody.
Oh, weird intruder.
I'm less Sam.
If you're watching this, you fucker.
If you did that, now's the time to let me know.
I love Sam. We talk all the time. Sam is my, now's the time to let me know. I love Sam.
We talk all the time.
Sam is my brother, by the way.
Sam is his brother.
I know him.
Okay.
I know there's another brother, but I haven't, I know.
No, no, no, no, I just, Sam is so wonderful.
Nate's the hot one.
I've seen a photo.
I wasn't gonna mention it.
He looks just, if you've seen that guy on TikTok
who chops wood, who's really,
Bradley something. Yeah. My younger brother, my younger He looks just, if you've seen that guy on TikTok who chops wood. Yeah. Who's really-
Bradley something.
Yeah.
My younger brother.
My younger brother looks just like him.
Bradley Cooper, God, what a dime piece.
I just saw him in Nightmare Alley.
Everything, it's a movie that is wonderful.
And you got a big crush on him?
I got a big crush on him, but who doesn't?
But Bradley, oh man, oh God.
Good looking guy.
Oh, but him in this movie Nightmare alley is so good.
I love night, I love the original too.
I wanna take a moment to appreciate how cool your story was.
Thanks.
What color were the drapes?
They were like blue and white stripes.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's sort of nautical.
Maybe it was like a sailor ghost.
Maybe.
Wait, it was Long Beach.
We were like, the ocean.
Yeah, maybe it goes to a long walk.
Yeah, I'm sure.
I wanna be your person with the story. Wait, wait, I gotta, I got one more. You had the ocean. Yeah, maybe it goes to a long walk. Yeah, I'll be sure. I want to be your person with the story.
Wait, wait, I got one more.
You had the bat.
Remember?
Yeah, the bat was wild.
I mean, that was fucking sick, dude.
Yeah.
Like, okay, sorry.
I wanted to get it on that,
but I didn't want to be weird about it.
It's okay, I do.
We'll have our moment.
Maybe I'll try for the next one.
So it might.
There will be more.
My current apartment, I don't get haunted vibes from it all.
It's old and it's quaint and it's nice and I feel very cool.
Wait, the lyric comes over.
Yeah, well you can let me know.
No, I don't think that it is.
If you're saying that.
I've very, probably four or five times I've had the following happen to me where I'm laying
in bed and I'm asleep, but like I feel, this is my foot off the edge of my bed. I feel
swear to God it feels just like this, like a hand just slapping my foot. And it jerks
me awake. That was me. It wasn't you, all right. It jerks me awake and I'm like, what the
fuck? And I've had it happen even when I'm not fully asleep. I'm just like half there.
Just like someone's slapping my foot. Yeah, I would move. And I get up and I, but I'm not scared by it.
I'm startled and I, dude, I, and just out of,
just out of an abundance of caution, I turn and I face
the darkness and I just go, hey, can you not, I'm trying
to sleep.
That's a good, we're sharing.
Like I like living here, I like you, I'm sure you're
very nice.
Can we, I'm sorry for jerking off earlier if that's
what you're upset about.
Yeah.
I'll try my best not to do that again.
Yeah, hey, stop stopping my foot, that's good.
Yeah, and then it doesn't happen again.
And I, lately sometimes if I,
even if I hear a creek or anything,
cause again, it's old and things creep.
What, have you done sort of a test to be like,
you know, maybe get a little piece of paper
and make a chart, you, you know, you jacked off this night.
You didn't this night.
And, and maybe, maybe you'll find that the nights that you this night, you didn't this night, and maybe you'll find
the nights that you do it.
It doesn't happen.
Well, I didn't.
And then you're gonna be having a lot of fun, you know what I mean?
Yeah, just like, hey, you wanna slap my, I wanna have a little fun and I go see the foot
thing.
Let's do the foot thing.
Here's what I'll do.
I'll jerk off, I'll fall asleep and then you can come out and give me a little foot
attack.
You can play with my feet all you want.
I don't like that.
That was actually like my stomach kind of dropped.
I don't like that.
It's the weirdest thing to just have your foot get slapped.
Yeah, I would, I don't really believe in ghosts.
And I honestly think it's because I don't have the capacity
for like dealing with it.
Yeah, if that was happened, like, I don't want to verify.
Yeah.
I don't want to steal the story, but did you see
Phil's ghost video?
Yes. I wish I didn't look at verify. I don't want to steal the story, but did you see Phil's ghost video? Yes. I
Wish I didn't look at it. Okay, so they were at this bar and they were talking about ghosts and this
Group next to them were like do you guys want to see a ghost video? No, I want to see you. I can show it to you and
so he They show them this video and they're at this old apartment in New York and
So he, they show them this video and they're at this old department in New York and they're dancing, they're drunk and dancing and the girl kind of gets this look on her face, looks
over and they point the camera and I don't even like, it's like a little girl.
It's a little girl in like a nightgown and you can see her walk by.
They're like, what the fuck?
And it's so bad. They show the video to the landlord and the landlord's like, you can see her walk by. They're like, what the fuck? And it's so bad.
They show the video to the landlord
and the landlord's like, you can break the lease.
And that's-
Wait a minute, wait a minute,
oh, in a club?
No, no, this was in the apartment.
Oh.
The video was shown to our friend, Adabal.
And so, oh, and the next day,
they were literally trying to track down the video
because they didn't have it.
And so when I came through and gave them the video and he was like DM me if you want it and I
was like I have to see it and then I watch it and I was I was pissed I was I didn't I wish
I didn't see it just a visceral reaction I don't like here's the thing yeah I've I've
just feel sent me the video to because I wanted to see it I had seen it on the internet
a couple years years ago.
You had.
No way.
Other people pointed it out to him.
Oh, okay.
When I said it to him, he said,
yeah, other people told me that.
And I always think that that is the work of someone
doing a very good hoax to go viral.
I sometimes think about when I see incredibly
well executed ghost trick videos.
I sometimes think, and I know this sounds a little bit weird, but if you think about it
for a moment, it kind of makes sense.
You know how there's like radical Christians who do hells where they, or I'm sorry, like
plays where they put high schoolers in hell and show people what's going to happen and
how horrible it's going to be and how you're going to get tortured.
No, I didn't know that.
No, wait, do you not know about that?
High school plays for them.
No, no, no.
It's a certain type of thing.
There's a name for them and the viewers who are much
smarter than me are going, oh yeah, they're called this.
It's like a thing, they do like these productions.
It like Christian high schools.
Yeah, and it'll be like a girl, you know,
like the curtains will open up and it'll be a girl
who like has sex with a guy and then she gets,
you know, hit by a car.
And then the next scene is her and hell with like demons
getting stabbed and tortured and she'll like,
look to the audience and be like, it's because I had sex before marriage and stuff.
And now I'm here, like it's an actual thing.
Yeah, it's really terrifying.
And I don't think that's a very common practice by the way.
They don't go to normal high schools and do that.
Sure.
Oh yeah, but I think that's like a thing
to sort of scare people into Christianity.
I was terrified as a child of this, oh, every kid who was a kid
in the 90s and early 2000s will remember this. The recording of hell, it was like a story
that these guys were drilling through the ice to get to something that's under ice that's
valuable and doing some tests. In Serbia, for some reason, there's a microphone on the
thing that tells them how deep they're drilling, you know, and they drill to hell.
And you hear all these terrible sounds and it's gut wrenching.
I mean, when I heard that as a kid, it was absolutely gut wrenching.
But then because of the internet, someone uploaded the recording and they found out that it was like a 19
late 1970s film called like Hell Raiders Forbs. I'm making it the title
But yeah, so a me as a kid was just like, oh, thank god. Yeah, it's been debunked
But do you know what I mean? Yeah, I that was a huge story that was circulating and I think that it's kind of done with the best of
intentions weird use of that phrase but from these of like, well, we're making it up, but it is real.
So I sometimes think when I see those incredibly labor goes videos, maybe they're done by like
a Christian organization that's like, well, we have to scare people.
So they think that, you know, I don't, I think that's like 5% of them, but I think it
sometimes.
Yeah.
I saw a TikTok of a security guard in, cause some of them I really do believe. Yeah.
This is, I'll have to send it to Luke right now
and sorry, we can cut this part out.
You don't have a case on your phone?
No, I don't believe in cases.
And here's why.
Three for three.
Because there, I dropped this phone.
This one is as stable and sturdy as the iPhone 5,
the little brick.
This thing, I drop it all the time
and it does not fucking crack.
Oh yeah.
It don't crack.
This video is spooky, wookie.
I'm not gonna like it.
What the fuck, spooky, wookie?
See, but that's like the thing you're talking about.
I remember when it came out and it's like,
I couldn't listen to it.
And I talked about recently on the other podcast.
So you have an experience with this as well.
Like it scared you.
Oh yeah, but even hearing that it's fake
is not enough for me.
I don't, it's already done the damage.
I don't, I can't fuck with ghosts, scary movies,
fuck me up, scary stories.
Oh, he gets scared at trailers for scary.
Really?
Yeah, I don't like it.
So like, I'm just like, when people talk about ghosts,
I'm like, they're not real, can't deal with it.
That is so funny.
I can't get scared enough.
Like I play the most horrible video games,
like in the dark, headphones on, windows open.
I try to scare myself, because nothing can scare me.
That's insane.
Yeah. I am so jealous.
Seeing you walk into the apartment,
and like when you guys get into the building,
I was like, yeah, no.
And then the, you guys went to the hospital?
Oh, yeah.
I will say I guess being in an environment,
so that can scare me.
But, yeah, when it comes to like media stuff,
nothing could scare me. But yeah, being in actual haunted places can... Oh, that would be terrifying. Yeah, when there's I guess being an environment. It's like that can scare me. But yeah, when it comes to like media stuff, nothing could scare me.
But yeah, being in actual haunted places can...
Oh, that would be terrifying.
Yeah, when there's things happening all around you
and things are toppling over and doors are opening
and all these things are happening,
it's like a huge problem.
Yeah, crack it.
Oh, like the video.
Got hold of the wrong stuff.
Oh, the, the leprechaun?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
To me, look like a leprechaun to me.
Everyone's a leprechaun to me. Yeah! Yeah! I wanna know where to go. There was like a leprechaun to me everyone's leprechaun to me
Want to know where to go there was like a song this is a leprechaun whistle It was passed down from a great great great great grandma. We're really we're really aging ourselves here boys
Okay, so this is a TikTok that came on my for you page
It is a security guard who works at a cemetery and he's in like the mausoleum.
I have always watched that job.
See, I don't think I can watch this.
Oh.
As crazy paranormal experiences while it works, we started recording the moments.
So I'm actually hearing something banging on the door.
I'm hoping I'm going to catch it some of it.
Door was open again.
Hello, security. Hello. door was open again hello security hello
hey you need to come out I'm not playing anymore I really don't like this oh you're freaking
out I'm not like a war a war dude just being in the
crisis he's even had multiple moments where you can actually hear voices inside the cemetery Dude, just being in there, just fucking Christ.
He's even had multiple moments where you can actually hear voices inside the cemetery
building.
Hey, by in here.
Hello.
Yeah, I really don't know.
That's a dumb go-
Yeah, but listen, you gotta get out of here.
No, I'm not a dumb.
You gotta have to come talk to me, okay?
Where you at?
I can't see you, you're correct. So you need to come out, okay?
And one night, he got called about a flickering light
inside the church, so we wanted to go check it out.
Okay, guys.
I'm really not sure what's going on here.
Yeah!
Nope!
Oh! I'm fucking done. I look. This is some spooky what's going on here
I'm fucking done. Um, this is some spooky shit going on here. This is why my security officer fucking quit this security guard works on a cemetery wait, okay
Did you ever see the one of the two? It's somewhere in South America. It's the two security guards working in the hospital at night
And there's like a door clanging
No Luke if you oh this this guy this guy does some shit security guards working in the hospital at night and there's like a door clanging. No.
Luke, if you- oh this guy- this guy does some shit.
I don't know what this technology is where it like outlines bodies but you can see his
body.
For the audio listener, I wish you could see it but it's- I wish you could see it.
But the guy on the left has like a stick figure thing outlining his body and then you see the supposed ghost
That the technology is identifying as as a figure sure yeah
So look look he's he reaches out to it. Oh
Copy me touch my hand. Touch my hand
You a ghost
I prepared some beans for you touch my hand in it
Oh, you are ghosts. I prepared some beans.
I'll touch my hand in it.
Man, that is a, that is a, that's a slow reach.
Timid ghost.
Yeah.
Wait, but I don't see anything exactly.
But you see the, like, the, the technology, boy, he's got, uh, is that Michael T. Fox?
He's touching.
Yeah.
Oh,
sorry.
All right. Listen, listen, it was the first one was gold.
It was fun.
It was a thrill for the audio listeners.
They got to hear some screeching and some shouting.
Now you're just pointing at stick figures
and telling the audio listeners to roll with the punches.
Luke, if you can search for security guards
like clinging door haunted or something.
We don't need to keep on thinking.
We'll find that one while we're talking to you.
So we gotta guess the fact that the freaking guy,
he doesn't wanna watch TikTok.
Well, did you see what Blackberry or Bed Bath
and Beyond did this week?
Does the freaking stock, huh?
This is the part where he tells us how much money he made.
I didn't, I made like 12 grand on it,
but then I gave back six immediately.
Interesting.
Give it back to him. To the market gods. Oh, lost it, but then I gave back six immediately. Interesting. Give it back to who?
To the market gods.
Oh, lost it, that's how you...
I overstayed my welcome.
Oh, it sounds like...
You made it sound like you gave it away to philanthropy.
Yeah.
I gave it back.
Oh, is this it?
No.
Listen, I don't want to throw salt in your game.
If you talk about finances here,
talk about finance.
Yeah, we do, but just one last thing I just wanna see
if you get so addicted to the e-mail.
You get so less than it.
No, that's not it.
And fuck.
Yeah, move on, sorry.
Thank you, Luke.
That's fine.
I loved the ghost video that you brought up.
You know what, I just did a,
this is what I mean when I try,
I sort of like put myself in experiences
that I want to get scared.
So I did a meditation at night inside of a mausoleum
at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
Wow.
Jesus Christ.
So it was like a sound bath thing
with like, you know, some like hippie types in there, right?
But it's a massive mausoleum.
So I asked the guy, Johnny, who was hosting the sound bath,
I said, because they were all sort of in the center
of the mausoleum and there were a couple lights.
And I said, Johnny, is it cool if I go like deep
into the mausoleum?
And I just like pointed at what was just darkness,
just black darkness.
And it's like a church basically,
you know, mausoleum with the walls
and with all the bodies in the walls.
And he was like, yeah, dude, of course you can.
And I was like, great.
Oh man, I tell you what, about 30 minutes in,
I was regretting it.
I thought it was happening. I thought it I was, I was spooked to hell.
And that takes a lot to spook you.
Yeah, I mean, you're like an addict.
You're chasing a bigger high.
It was, yeah, it was really intense.
Like as it got darker,
because the sun was sort of like coming down,
it was, it just got like,
there were just people standing next to me.
Whoa. Yeah, definitely. And I was, it was, it just got like, there were just people standing next to me. Whoa.
Yeah, definitely.
And I was,
I think it's because they're pissed off that they're buried in a fucking wall.
They didn't like me there. That's for sure.
Why?
You can tell when they're...
Yeah, it's their place at night.
But, uh, yeah, it was, it was pretty spooky.
Do you ever think about why mausoleums don't smell bad?
Why?
Well, aren't they like, is there so in tune?
Inclosed and everything.
Well, yeah, it's just really interesting.
My friend, Caitlin, who's an incredible YouTuber,
and she's a mortician, she lets me stay at her cabin sometimes.
She's wonderful.
Oh, God, I love her.
She made a video about that.
Why don't mausoleums smell bad?
Is it a bunch of decaying rotting corpses in the walls?
Yeah, ventilation systems.
And sometimes they fail and things go south-south.
Wow.
Yeah, and it's really bad.
But yeah, drainage systems and ventilation systems,
because all those fluids have to come out and smells have to come out
and they go right up into the sky.
But when things go badly, you know, right away,
because they're all beat puddles.
Damn, you know, it's beat smelling.
Oh my god, it smells of like human fluids.
Exactly.
I'm really into, you know, cemeteries and stuff,
and I take people on tours through Hollywood forever cemetery,
not like a paid gig.
I could.
That'd be a cool side hustle. I want to go once and see if I could do it. Please come with me. We'll go during the day. It's not scary.
I'll show you Anton Yelchins grave, which is really beautiful. I think about him. Oh, I swear I think about Anton Yelchins at least once a day still.
Damn. Yeah, I used to do yoga there during the pandemic. Are you serious? I'm upset. My favorite one of my favorite people on the whole planet
is a name is Tyler Cassidy,
who, I don't mean froggy fresh, I love him, but Tyler Cassidy is the guy who owns Hollywood
for ever cemetery.
There's an owner of it.
Yes.
He bought it when he was 24 years old for $250,000.
What year?
1997, I think.
No, I might have been 2001, sorry.
Around that time though.
Holy shit.
Oh, you don't want to, I would go on a 17 minute tangent right now about that whole story. But you know, you know, it's a
crazy story. The guy who owned it before was a criminal who got, you know, put away,
he was like put away, he was selling premium plots for like $200 just to pay off
debts and stuff and yeah, he was just go, you know, it was horrible. People were
like living there, it was vandalized, it was falling apart so they just had to sell it and this handsome young cemetery and came along who looked like a supermodel by the way
Which of course L.A. was very intrigued by the new guy. Yeah Tyler Cassidy who I want to die and get very
Tyler Cassidy, he's still super hot. No, he's gorgeous. Anyways, uh, yeah
If you want to see Google Tyler Cassidy Hollywood forever cemetery. He's a fox
Tyler Cassidy hollywood forever cemetery he's a fox well that's a lot of
sexy who who's sexy cemetery that active no but he's all my god look at them
uh... he's a he's a good looking guy
are you know you went to a current that they have a bit
you know that i mean yeah when he came you know he was here anyways but he's
cool like he uh... he's the reason why there's you know how to meet him
oh i haven't met him that would be passed I just know a lot about him because because I do but um
Well, but he listeners no Tyler Cassie. Let's connect here. Oh my god. That'd be so sick
I want to sit down with him and talk to him
But yeah, he has concerts there like I saw like James Blake there and stuff and self-blaming lips there
You see and think about you unusual that is that's because of him because he wants to celebrate death And I'm a very great course played there. You see, and think about how unusual that is. That's because of him, because he wants to celebrate death.
And I'm a very gay course played there.
I'm soup. Yes.
I'm the Sinespia, the movies, and I'm a, I love,
I'm very death positive.
I love the stoic approach to death,
and I think about it a lot.
What does death positive mean?
It means that you think about it a lot,
and you think it's pretty cool,
but not in like a gothy way, which is that's fine as well,
but it's not like a drab thing.
And like Americans are very anti death,
and scared of it and don't confront it in any way.
It's a very death like a bathroom.
So that porcelain, white, clean, expensive,
you can't be human, you can't be such a cool thing.
I love death positivity,
it's just meditating on it a lot and thinking about it.
It's why I like this liquid.
How do you hope to die?
Oh, I have, ooh, boy.
I would like to, well, I have the greatest answer
for this that sounds psychopathic, if that's a word,
but when people think about it for one second,
it makes all the sense in the world.
The greatest way to die would be this.
You know how we have no scale, basically,
when it comes to like the cosmos, how earth is like,
compared to, you know, all these other planets
were just like a speck of dust.
I sometimes think about that,
because you know how we have asteroids flying through space
and some are just like the size of, you know, whatever,
they're small and some are big.
I'm like, is there something out there flying around
that's like 150,000, you know,
times the size of earth that's just going at someone
godly speed that no one could ever clock?
I know that sounds insane,
and I know nothing about science,
but that could take us out.
And like if it hit us at the speed it would be going,
it's like it wouldn't even know.
It wouldn't even put a dent in it.
Like if it hit and obliterated Earth,
it wouldn't even change its course.
It wouldn't even change its course.
It wouldn't even feel it.
It'd be like a fly landing on you.
But it's about going to windshield.
Yes, so my answer to that,
the best way to die would be at the same time
with everybody else.
Oh, that's a good one.
Because there's a song by Beyonce called Other Side,
which is so beautiful, and I can't believe
we don't have more songs about death.
And she expresses that about like,
if I have to die, my only hope is that it's
at the same damn time as you.
Well, as she's speaking, someone she loves a friend,
you know, family member, something.
And I love that sentiment so much.
So I know it's a bit morbid,
but the best way to die would be instantaneously,
and at the same time with everyone,
so no one had the grieve you,
and no one had, you know what I mean?
Because, you know.
I wish that Beyonce instead that song was about her,
about an asteroid hitting, and her being like,
I can't believe we're all gonna die at the same time.
What if we just kept wiped out while we were recording?
Well, I think I love that stuff.
Yeah.
There's all these doomsday theories about things
that could make that happen.
And yeah, just nothing.
Just how did you become death positive?
Well, I was obsessed with death as a kid.
I was very morbid.
I used to draw the Titanic breaking in half
and all the people falling off and helicopters,
and zombies, and a lot of people,
I think, hearing that, understand that.
Right, we were either of you morbid kids?
I had a morbid side, sure.
I don't think I was.
I was up Halloween, everything.
I was completely head over heels
and love with it, obsessed with it.
Yeah, and so I don't know, but then obviously,
you know, I grew up and got into like, you know,
philosophy and just started thinking more about it
and it's less of a gimmick now and more of just
something I find deeply intriguing.
But yeah, I think people are so terrified of death,
but once you embrace it, it's actually really cool.
Because once you embrace it, you're like,
oh wait, I need to live a really beautiful life right now.
Which I know sounds kind of like 101.
But when you really think about it, it's super cool.
Because suddenly this can that I'm holding
or just looking at you or you
becomes the most beautiful thing in the world.
That's incredible.
It is really refreshing when someone...
Because we pretend like it's not gonna ever happen.
Yeah, but what am I gonna happen to me?
Well, one of my favorite, do you know Warren Zeevon?
No.
Singer-songwriter from the 1970s,
but he famously found out he had cancer
and he was gonna die.
And they were basically like,
we could do this treatment,
you might get five years out of it.
And he was like, no,
but because he was gonna have a really low quality of life. So he was like, we're making because he was going to have a really low quality of life.
So he was like, we're making a rock and roll record. He gets all his friends and stuff and
he makes this beautiful album and it ends with keeping me in your heart, which is a letter to
his friends and family. It's just like really gut wrenching. And he goes on, you know, he goes on
Letterman. Letterman was very good to him, had a monobunch and he got a lot of exposure that way.
And there's this very famous interview where Letterman is like, it's very good to him, had a monobunch, and he got a lot of exposure that way, and there's this very famous interview where
Letterman is like, it's very weird to be talking
to someone who's gonna expire,
and he's asking, it's very beautiful.
That's it.
Was his response to that?
Aren't we all?
I don't know, like did he did he?
He's just very upfront about it all.
He's like, this is what happens.
He's like, I lived hard, I didn't go to the doctor
for decades, and here I am.
And, you know, he's very upfront about not wanting to,
because most people in that situation
are like, let's do the treatment.
I want to live as long as possible,
even if it's a low quality of life.
Oh my goodness.
And he was like, I don't want to do that.
I want to, you know.
Yeah, there's this book called Civilized to Death
that I think is really interesting
that speaks a lot about that.
And the quality of life that will tolerate under those circumstances. And yeah, it's this book called Civilized to Death that I think is really interesting that speaks a lot about that and the quality of life
that will tolerate under those circumstances.
Yeah, it's just, that's, thank you for telling me about that.
I'm gonna look into that person and watch those interviews.
That's fantastic.
I always think about how there's,
and I don't know if I believe in like,
determinism and free, whatever, free will
versus all of that shit.
But what spooks me out is,
like for example, last week,
there was this terrible car accident.
This woman was going like 100 miles an hour
and blew through a red light and she just...
So someone said that she lived.
Oh yeah, she was unscathed.
What?
Yeah.
And she had been in like 16 car accidents prior to that.
The footage is horrible.
I would advise not to look it up.
She just killed an entire family in the blink of an
It looks like a missile going into an intersection, but what's like a missile? What gets me is like did she was something wrong with her?
No, she wasn't drunk or anything. Oh, she was just driving like a hundred miles prior at like 10 in the morning
I mean she's gonna be put away for life. Oh, yeah, 90 years of life
I mean, oh, and she killed someone else and not herself.
Yeah, like five people.
Jesus.
But so prior to that, those people in that car,
humming along, none of them have any idea
that the little invisible clock over their head
only reads like 50 more seconds.
Oh, it's just counting down.
That's what gets me is like, what's my clock say?
I have no idea.
Interesting. What's it say, Garrett?
No.
No, I can see it.
I know you can see it.
No, I'm just a visual person.
Yeah, so that's what I imagine.
Or you know what, you know what really gets me.
What gets you?
And I don't think that I'm the first person to talk about this,
but what kind of gets a fire under my ass sometimes is,
if your life were an iPhone battery and even
assuming that you live a hundred years, a hundred percent of the thing, me at the
age of 34, that means that my battery now reads 66%.
Interesting.
And if I've got my phone and I look at the battery at 66%, I'm like, damn, I should plug this
in.
Interesting. That's spooky as I'll get out. No, damn I should plug this into. Interesting.
That's spooky as I'll get out.
No you can't be plugged in?
No. And that's assuming again that's going to be 100 years.
If I'm living in the 80 which is still great.
Yeah.
That's 20% less which is what's 20% of 66.
That's 12.
Let him do it he'll 12.
I think.
I never learned my time stables.
I had every high school teacher tell you're not going to get by if you don't learn your time stables.
And now look at you.
Now look at me.
Dumb.
Nine times three.
Nine times three, come on you guys.
No I don't know.
Nine times three.
Literally don't know how to do that.
There's a trick you can do.
No I don't, I can't.
Wait that reminds me of the,
have you ever seen, it was like an article or a book
and I can't place it but it's so depressing.
I think it's supposed to be uplifting and be like,
you know, use your time wisely or whatever but it's so depressing. I think it's supposed to be uplifting and be like, you know, use your time wisely or whatever,
but it basically breaks down.
You know, if you're someone who, you know,
moved away far from home, if you moved across the country,
you know, and you see your parents 27, twice a year.
Thank you.
You see your parents twice a year, Christmas,
and one time in the summer, say,
they're like, if you're age 33,
and your parents are gonna die at 75,
you will see them like 12 more times.
Yeah, and you're like, oh, shit.
That is insane.
And the wild one.
I wish I never read it.
And it's like all these things of like,
you'll see your best friend who lives across the country,
you know, 17 more times.
And it's just like.
That when you see things like that,
it is so weird how we live.
Nowadays, I know everyone knows this,
but it is insane what we do.
We're all so lonely.
We're all so obsessed with ourselves.
We're obsessed with things that don't matter.
We're not in communities.
We don't see our families.
We don't truly like, it's so crazy.
We're all just lonely.
And in weird little houses and apartments
and doing things that generally don't matter that much
Yeah, you know, that's what that's what this civilized to death book
I don't know. I sound like I'm just promoting this book left and right. No, I want to read that. I just I just
Beautiful. Yeah, my mom is she was born raised in Greece and so we used to go a lot as kids and I
Recently, I went back to summer and I hadn't been back in a while and I forgot how different you know
We go to where her family's from and
summer and I hadn't been back in a while and I forgot how different you know we go to where her family is from and they know everyone. I mean their cousins
are like siblings we walk around like it takes forever to walk somewhere because
they bump into someone they know and you know everyone just seems so happy they
know everyone. I walk around LA I don't know anyone I don't know.
Isn't it crazy that we tell ourselves I know I tell myself well you're in your
earning years right now. I mean you're just working and you, you know, you keep on making stuff on the internet and
keep on doing well and putting away brand deals and, you know, make it like, there's a
noble side to it, of course. I'm not going to go down that rabbit hole I kind of did earlier,
but there's the monetary side of it as well, right? And everyone does this. You tell yourself,
oh, I'm just going to keep on working and eventually I'll get to that life where I go move to
Washington and hang out with my nieces and nephews, be around my brother and hang out and stuff. My niece just turned, you know, 17. And I was like,
oh, wait, where was I as her uncle? Yeah. Well, I missed that, right. You know, and I,
they're still love there. But still, it's just like, whoa, at well point, do we just kind of
submit to that energy? Because right right eventually, like you said,
you never know where that time comes up above your head.
You know what gets me is the life stats, so to speak.
Like, you know, at the end of a video game,
you get all your stats.
Oh, I wish I wouldn't know how many, yeah.
Oh man, so like every time I'm sometimes
when I'm brushing my teeth,
I'm like, there's a fine nine amount of times
I'm gonna brush my teeth in my life.
Whoa.
It's not predetermined, I hope. But like, there is a fine nine amount of times I'm gonna brush my teeth in my life. Whoa. It's not predetermined, I hope.
But like, there is at the end of it,
it'll be whatever, you know, 20,000 or whatever the fuck
it'll be.
And every time I brush my teeth,
I'm just checking off one more time.
And I'm getting closer to the last time I brush my teeth
because there will be a last time.
There will be a final time you brush those things.
No.
And you're just counting.
And just counting.
We're still young though.
I dated a girl and I remember her dad was telling me,
he was like, I figured it out.
I know how I always buy the same pair of shoes.
And I know how long it takes for them to wear out.
And so I figured how long I have left.
And I bought all the shoes I'll ever need.
That is nuts. And I was like, you give him a hug. I'll ever need. That is nuts.
And I was like, you give him a hug.
I heard you need a hug.
That is wild.
He's just got a finite amount of shoes.
That'd be like a really cool kind of
avant-garde commercial for whatever shoe company that is.
You should have said, I think you overcalculated.
You got way too much shoes here.
There's no way you're living this long.
Oh, that is nuts.
Yeah, that freaked me out.
Yeah, wow.
That's when I was like, I'm still young.
You know, I have no idea how much you do that I'm going to have in my life.
You know what got me feeling at peace with death finally was that
Joan Didian book, the year of magical thinking, which is about her husband
croaking of a heart attack.
But knowing years earlier, he had gone to like a doctor who basically told him, hey, you got a ticking time bomb,
a widow maker, whatever the thing is called.
Whoa.
And he just accepted it and was like, yeah, okay, well,
at least now I know.
And that's it and there's nothing I can do about it.
And so, and just something about it hit me.
I was on this plane and I started to cry a little bit.
Wow, because I felt relief.
I'm like, oh, I don't have to worry anymore.
Like, hey, if that's because that's where I envision
is the way I'm gonna go,
because my dad went that way, his dad went that way.
And I think my great grandfather might have died
of heart shit in his 60s.
So I'm like, there's an irony that the more I worry
about dying in my early 60s, the more likely
it's going to happen because I'm gonna like stress myself into it.
Sometimes I have to work on self editing,
you know, like in my brain,
because as you were telling that story,
I wanted to do this bit where I go,
ah, and scare you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Would you over old with it?
Yeah.
I didn't want to disrespect.
No.
Oh, it's, he's very, he's game.
Trust me, it would have been very funny.
You got it by 22% basically, like, even me telling you in that kind of tepid way.
But imagine, imagine if you did that,
I would have played along.
What if I took it to the furthest extent?
Oh, that would have been great.
And then did it around on you
and you had to call 911.
And then I got like a $5,000 ambulance.
Yeah.
And we then we also do it to each other
and it's like a Cuban Missile Crisis of Heart Attack.
I swear to God
Do you ever sometimes when you're cranking hog you feel like you're really straining your heart?
No, yeah, I'm gonna say no because he did damn. I mean if you get if you do it's okay
No, I don't yeah my ice I went I and I check my heart rate sometimes. Yeah, I'm gonna
I know but you don't want to you know, yes, it's it's a fantastic little watch. Yeah, I mean, I'm in a heart monitor. Yes, I know, but you don't want to,
yes, it's a fantastic little watch.
That is, I really like it.
Thanks.
You got to fix that, what is that?
The strap broke.
The strap broke and for a couple of years.
Well, how fantastic could it be then?
Well, I come on.
I've been using a zip tie, but it actually just
it fell off.
You need a little, I don't know, glue or some shit.
I can't wear watches.
I got this, I got this damn wrist bone
in pops out.
You got a weird wrist, I've never noticed that.
Do you guys not have these?
These prominent little ones.
You got one.
Yeah, they, they,
What but there's the watch sits below.
Yeah, but make a bigger.
Down here feels too,
Oh yeah,
maybe I'll go to a cosmetic surgeon
and have them shave down my wrist bone.
Oh yeah, cool.
Dr. fucking whatever.
Ben got back from his elective wrist surgery.
Do you notice anything about that?
I got tough.
Ben your wrist looks so sexy.
I've never been attracted to a wrist before.
I got a buddy who's into ankles.
Really?
Yeah, he's like, I saw this girl's ankles couldn't do it.
And then it'll be like, I was getting a hand job
from my girlfriend and I was just focused on her ankles.
That's great.
Great ankles.
I always think about that.
Where does that stuff come from?
You know?
You just did an appreciation for the finer things
on the human body.
Fantastic.
I love the human body.
Yeah, it's tight.
What's your favorite part?
I think hands are really cool.
Hands are tight.
Hands are just like, I love like, they're so sculptural
and interesting. I love hands and animation, like the medium of animation. I think they are really cool hands are tight hands are just like I love like they're so sculptural and interesting
I love hands in animation like the medium of animation
I think they're really cool the how different illustrators choose to go about them
There's this video game called dishonored. I'm a huge gamer that has really interesting like approach to I just think hands are really cool
Like on statues. They're the most interesting part on humans. They're an interesting part as well
Well, I mean, I it's not really ever about reviewing them
I'm not like that means they suck He look a little disgusting there an interesting part as well. Well, I mean, it's not really ever about reviewing them. Not like those things.
That means they suck.
He looked a little disgusted.
No, it's cool.
I like your scars on your knuckles are cool.
I have a lot of scars on my hands because I used to get really drunk in high school and
pound on doors.
With my friend Dakota, it was great.
It was for fun.
You know, like his basement was, you know, you're not even, we would, it was like very silly
teenage behavior of like our hands were bleeding and there were, you know, you're fucking like, we would, it was like very silly teenage behavior of like our hands were bleeding
and there were shh, you know, Jesus.
There was wood in our hands and it was like,
I won't stop, you know, you won't stop.
Who's gonna stop first?
Plot all over the walls.
I would be pulling my punches.
No.
You know, fuck with Dakota.
He'd heard his hands and I'd be fine.
Oh, we were always rough-housing.
We were sweet boys, though.
You know my least favorite part of the human body.
Oh, let me guess.
Guess.
Oh, well I don't know why I was looking at yours.
You didn't mean your body.
Oh no, my body, I love every inch of it.
I'm just kidding.
It's so do we.
Come on.
We do, right?
Come on, I can't get.
Ah, armpits.
Oh, and the reward is good.
Oh, I thought I was gonna meet a not obvious one.
It's just like a, it's just like a I I don't know
I imagine like getting a fucking knife in there or something
Oh, that's why you don't like armpits. That's what imagine
Going into the most uncomfortable if I had to choose one place to not get stabbed
Yeah, it wouldn't be the eyes. It wouldn't be the fucking neck. Don't send me the armpit
Yeah, it'd be the worst. This is why I love you. Why is throwing curve balls?
It's like, the curve ball was so deep that when you said,
guess what my least favorite body part was,
I thought that was gonna be the curve ball.
You were gonna pick something weird,
the hamstring or something, right?
But you picked a very obvious one,
and then you went because of the stabbing.
I wouldn't wanna get stabbed.
Well, when I used to go,
not because people think they're gross
and people say like, oh, this is the arm with the man. They wouldn't want to get that. Well, when I used to smoke. Not because people think they're gross and people say, oh, this is the armpit man.
Yeah, they smell, it went from typical to A typical.
I love it. He's so good at that.
Oh yeah. That is so entertaining.
Thank you.
My gosh, when every comes over, he's just always entertaining.
I got a sorry every time.
Oh, something to rant about.
Oh, such good rant.
Wait, so speaking of coming over,
did you, are you now the owner of this apartment?
In Spokane?
Yeah, kind.
Are you gonna rent it out or?
No, I thought about that.
I thought about that how interesting that would be,
but that was like, I don't wanna disrespect the building.
I don't even say the name of the building in the video.
I, for those listening, I got a haunted apartment
in this building that I'm obsessed with,
but I don't wanna, I thought it would be really cool
to like do it all up in this really cool
like classic sort of timeless way,
not timeless, actually, very dated.
But no, but I don't want people coming in
and say, you know what I mean,
it's such a small intimate building.
It's very, yeah.
My brother, I have an older half brother
who lives in Spokane.
I will accept Sam and I will accept Nate.
No, that's it.
I can't.
I can't.
He's my older, it's on my mom's side.
All right.
What's this?
What is what?
Oh, this is our outline that we had.
I'm pointing to a screen that they have in front of us.
Yeah.
You're really showing everyone how the sausage is made.
You're alluding to some kind of screen you see.
You're always referred to the screen.
Yeah, it's responsible.
You're guys is set, let me tell you.
This set is so impressive.
I had a podcast once once it only went 23 episodes
But it was so it was sort of rag tag
It was just like my place and a couch and a couple camp. We didn't have anyone. Yeah, you know
It's interesting. Look at you professionals. There's people on the sidelines. Oh, yeah
There's people whispering things left and right. There's screens. There's several lights. Those aren't people
Those are spooky. Those are girls. You already told me. Yeah. Knucklehead.
That's a.
Where's that coming from from from?
What are you talking about?
Wait, what's on that screen though?
I did want to talk about something.
There's one thing that we can get to.
We'll be seeing the other shit in after hours maybe.
But no, no, no, no.
Wait, was it, you scroll down please, Luke?
Sorry.
Why are we?
Yeah, theis will do the
the no it was always so on every episode we ask you have to tell us how much money
you made no no and then we call the irs after yeah we were at a
gate told us what did you report can you imagine we're just not I do have
I have I mean I don't know yeah I don't want to again speak about this freely
well so there's there's one thing that has been happening recently with I do have, I have, I mean, I don't know. Yeah, I don't wanna, again, speak about this freely.
Well, so there's one thing that has been happening
recently with advertising.
Sure.
And I thought that it would boon well,
be a boon for us, bode well.
I love marketing, by the way.
I think I used to work at Funny or Die
and do it in marketing and this is a subject
that I think is really cool.
Well, so there's Google, Facebook,
and just all the like companies that rely on
ad spends are seeing a big downturn in ad money being turned around. And part of that
is because of Apple's new privacy thing you've heard about the app tracker thing.
Do not track. Yeah, it basically single-handedly destroyed Snapchat. Wow. Like Snapchat, I
don't know if you've heard about this. Snap Snapchat's stock went from like $70 to share down to like five.
Holy smokes.
Just absolutely wiped everybody out.
I mean, no.
Okay.
Okay.
That's like, maybe you are.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
Well, I thought about it because I post, I was like,
when I posted my video, I was like talking to my friend,
Andrew, and I was like, wait a minute, I have Snapchat
on my phone, like should I say, you know,
something there that there's a video?
And I was like, they have a ghost icon.
Yeah.
It was, so I blew the, I blew the dust off Snapchat
for the first time in like three years,
and I was like, hey, sorry, I never post here.
Anyways, I did.
And I was actually kind of surprised.
I looked at like the numbers on it.
I was like, okay, that's not bad for us.
Should we be on Snapchat?
Well no, don't worry about it, just take it easy.
Yeah, I'll never take it easy.
No, we don't take it easy.
But so there's that, but then next year,
there's this new law coming into effect
about cookies, tracking cookies online.
So that basically, you get a banner ad
that follows you all over the internet.
Like, hey, fucker, you looked at these shoes for your, for your soon-to-be-dead parent.
Oh, uh, do you want to buy these? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure?
Like, the limit is so. Yeah, you're like, dude, I'm good.
But they're gonna be, these marketers are gonna be without those cookies next year.
So all that ad money, because you know, you've worked with these marketers,
they have budgets that they have to use,
because if they don't use it,
then next year their budget is smaller.
So they have to use it.
So begs the question, where's that money gonna go, man?
They gotta put it somewhere.
How about into the coffers of the podcasts,
such as ours, such as yours that you should revive,
even though it's a lot of work.
Hey, you know, you hire someone. such as ours, such as yours that you should revive, even though it's a lot of work.
Hey, you know, you hire someone,
hire a little,
hire a little,
a little,
you wanna do it for me?
I wouldn't know the first thing about it, buddy.
I'd be like, I guess the red buttons record.
What was your podcast called?
It was called Sweet Boys.
Sweet Boys, and what was the, was there a brand?
It was just, it was just a couple of sweet boys.
My friend Andrew Swicki and I,
it was wonderful.
We had a really, really fun time doing it
But it was sort of like a like a panty project, you know, panty and but it was it was really fun and oh
Yeah, there it is look at that you got a YouTube channel sitting here with 546,000 subscribers
Oh, yes, and you're just like ah
Well, you need to revive it dude. It's so fun. It's fun to do.
It is fun to do.
It is fun to do.
Sweet Boys will return in a capacity,
but probably not in a podcast capacity.
Listen, the spirit of Andrew and I,
that guy right there, that wonderful, beautiful fella.
He's like one of my closest friends
and we make stuff together all the time.
So the spirit of Sweet Boys is in everything we make.
And he, he like worked on the last video with me,
and I'm launching a bunch of stuff right now.
So no, it's still there.
Like I saw that comment a million times
under the video of like this week, boys are back.
So it was like a, it's gonna be,
I don't know how to talk about how it's going to sort of
return, the energy of it is still there though.
I can feel it in the room with us.
Well yeah, but I think that yeah,
speaking for a very long time like that, I'm not sure if it was great for either of us. Well, yeah, but I think that yeah, speaking for a very long time like that, yeah, I'm not sure if it was great for either of us. Well, how long, well, it's not good for us.
We're going insane. How long was it? Do you know how long we've been talking right now? No, I don't,
I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know time. 66 minutes.
I love it. Not bad, right? That's fantastic. Yeah. Every time I get going, I go, I'm,
I'm, but you know what, I'm better served as I'm better going on people's podcasts and doing a weird like a ramble
Yeah, and then and then just well you got to do what we do and have a little bit of an outline
Oh, you have a skeleton. I know you know what maybe someday who knows who knows who knows for now
There's a there's a there's a the plates full yeah, but I do it was a great time and I commend it was really interesting to learn
What that was like podcasting and I commend you too for doing it so beautifully
here in this office.
You don't have anywhere to be right
because I don't know if our producers told you
we're kind of like Joe Rogan,
we go for like three and a half, four hours.
Nothing matters.
No, we're all gonna, we all have times above our heads.
We're gonna go until the big asteroid comes.
Oh, I don't want it to happen, but come on.
I would like a gamma ray burst, personally.
What is it?
It's when it's basically the feces of a black hole
and it shoots out in whatever direction.
And it's just like a ultra concentrated
something kind of radiation that just absolutely
eviscerates whatever it passes through.
Yeah, that sounds really relaxing.
Yeah, right.
At the end of the day, it really does.
Yeah. You know what I wouldn't want to
die in a tsunami. That'd be the worst. You know what I sometimes think about? I don't know if this
is the correct place to pedal this theory. But I sometimes think about one of the most interesting
like afterlife theories. It's not really an afterlife theory at all. Of course, we all know the conversation
about simulation theory, mom. There's this base reality, you hold whatever. It's been years of that conversation.
But I think about this being an educational system.
Like, okay, so I die.
Like in six years, I get hit by a coat, whatever.
I just instantly die.
I have a heart attack, anything.
And I wake up and I'm in the body of like a 16 year old girl.
And I'm in a really beautiful, you know, clinic
or something with my family members around.
And it's like, hey, it's okay, calm down.
You know, breathe deep, it's fine.
It's fine, you know, your name is Elizabeth, the year is, you know, 40, 62, like, you know,
and she kind of remembers like, oh, that's right. Oh my God, then it was like a, like a collegiate
system and people rate themselves like, how many lives did you had? And she gets to live, you
know, the life of like a guy and, you know, born in whatever, like a white male in this time with the experiences I had, you know,
either learning lessons.
Ball and terrorly?
Yeah, like, imagine you get plugged into different lives
and then you live them.
So it's like if someone was incredibly, you know,
I love the way this sounds.
Sometimes I say things out loud and I'm like,
wait, this is falling apart, but this isn't.
I love the idea.
Can you imagine it's like, oh, I've lived eight lives.
I lived like the life of like a slave in Egypt, you know, once upon a time. And
that's horrible. And I learned a lot from that. And then I came back and I jumped into my
next one, jumped into my next one, jumped into my next one, you know. Have you read the
story by the guy who did the Martian? It's a short story, but it's basically, um, no,
he keeps, you keep living every life on earth until you, oh, that would suck. But isn't
that interesting to think that this could just be
like a collegiate system, like an educational thing?
I guess.
That sounds exhausting for my poor soul.
Well, you don't realize it while you're in it.
Yeah.
Yeah, and then can you imagine
that you're in it latent to being?
Yeah, and it's only, you know, two weeks for that,
for the girl or whoever you are in your real life
and laid up in a beautiful clinic.
And maybe our families are very wealthy
to be able to put us through this.
You know, like this is very...
Sick, we got it like that.
There you go.
I saw a funny meme.
Just that sentence,
makes me feel like a shithead.
It's like the year is 2040 and you're,
you know, you're 70 years old.
And one of your shitty grandkids comes up
and points his little laser at you,
causing you to experience like a thousand years of torment within 10 seconds and when you finally come out of it,
you're just, you're full of terror and like you've lived a thousand years and your nephew goes,
pranked you or whatever. It's like, oh man. I love it. Because they've, they've torn it around with that kind of thing of prison sentences being
delivered in an instant.
Whoa.
But to the, to the prisoner, it feels like a thousand years have passed.
How, how, how spooky.
I know.
I know.
I saw this meme once that was one of the most comforting things I've ever seen when it comes
to like afterlife stuff
It was a the meme format is called cool bug facts and it's like this 3d like warm on the left with like the words on the right
Yeah, and it said the most beautiful thing and I think I've told no less than 150 people about this because it actually brought me so much peace
It just said
Before birth is the same thing is after death or like you know
But yeah, like your existence before birth is the same thing as like after death. So what are you so afraid of? Yeah, there's nothing. Wait, say it again. Like before you're born.
Do you remember being born or like before you were born? Right.
That's the same as being dead. Oh, right, right. What are you so afraid of? Right. I thought that was so beautiful to be like, oh, I'll tell you what I'm afraid of missing out.
Missing out on this liquid dead. Missing out on everything.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, like some cool new music.
I sometimes feel that way.
And your color being invented.
And then have you ever, I don't know, I'm a bit of a
hyper-conjurex, so.
You are?
Yeah.
And sometimes, you know, something weird happens on your body.
And you can't have it be like, well, that's cancer.
And it's probably spread to my organs or whatever.
And then I start to go, oh my God,
there's so many things I want to do.
I want to see my family, I want to do that.
So many books I want to read.
So many different beans I haven't tasted.
I want to do some of these.
God loves beans, he doesn't shut up about it.
Do you remember when the, in elementary school,
when they're making like grow a lime of beans?
Yeah. Yeah.
I kept on uncovering it in the process
and there's a life lesson there.
If you keep uncovering the soil to check on the seed,
that shit ain't ever gonna grow.
You gotta let it.
A watched bean, never grew.
A watched bean, never grows.
