So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception, and your reality. Listen to Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all-new story of betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered

a terrible secret. I saw it in a folder, and I opened it. What the hell did I just see? Listen to season two of Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Between April 1971 and September 1972, six young black girls were snatched off the streets in Washington, D.C. This child was laying on the side of the road. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can. Signed Freeway Phantom. Listen to Freeway Phantom on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to This Is Important, a production of iHeart Radio, the show where we only talk about what is

most obviously very crucially important. Today on This Is Important, what do I think smell like? You waited in line for the sex show? You fucking creep? This is what soldiers died for, so that I could shotgun beers. With the way they talk, they keep their boyfriends out at night. Let's go! Woo! Too hot! Too hot! Too hot! Hold up! They don't love me like I love you! You're still singing that!

Okay, now we're coming in. I was about to say we're coming in kind of lukewarm here and then are you sure? Blake, what up? Well, I'm feeling, I'm feeling dumb and anxious. I had a question for Blake out the gate. Uh, how are your boops? What? I think this is a leading question. Adam is a scat man, dude. Adam's a scat man. He wants you to talk about Nola. Yeah, you're scat. I'm a scatologist, baby. This was what you're coming out lead hitter with is how are my poops? Scat, dude. Scat. Hey, we know I don't think of anything before the pod. This is an all-natural. Hey, hey. But it is a slight leading question. I do want to talk about Nola.

Yeah. You either have diarrhea or you don't. How are your shits? Are you finally shitting correctly? This, it's been like five days now, four days. Diarrhea. Okay. So I see you're trying to lead into like the epic adventure we had in New Orleans by, by segwaying through our shit. We're coming through the poop system. Well, it's not a segway. It's an intro. It's an opener. I've listened to the TII community. I do like it. Adam's like, I got nothing planned. I know the question is so planned.

It's loaded. It wasn't planned. That wasn't planned. I want to talk about Nola. And then immediately I was like, but then you say it wasn't planned. It happened in the moment. It happened right then. It's not like five minutes ago. I thought of this plan. This happened immediately because I just took a shit and I'm like, wow, look at that. You know, for a second I was going to believe you and then you said it's not like I thought about this five minutes ago. That's a very specific number. I, I'm with Ders on this one. Adam is- Yeah, maybe it was five minutes ago.

Yeah. All right. Hey, okay. Hey, guess what guys? I plan everything I'm going to say. Yeah. Your smoke and mirrors is fucking. The smoke is clearing, buddy. And the mirrors are shouting. I see what's happening. It's a little too rehearsed. No, but Blake, I do want to talk about your butthole. And chits. At some point we can circle back.

Because I literally had my first solid shit. I'll listen to this. Just, just now. Just now. I'll listen. Because my body betrayed me. Just now. This was the first New Orleans experience that I felt this poorly after only a few days. This is 40.

Well, I'm getting older and I no longer can handle because we, we, it was a four day true bangerang from the moment we got on that plane till the moment we left. Yeah. It was a bangerang, Peter. It was a Rufio. It was a Rufio? You got Rufi? It was a Dante Basco. It was a Dante's Peak. I, I might have. I might have. Like if I got Rufi'd, I wouldn't have known. Oh, Rufio.

They put, yeah, they put more vodka in your vodka. What is it? What's in this vodka? Extra vodka? Yeah. We put more vodka in your vodka. Your boobs are huge. Either you have diarrhea or you don't. Yeah, no, I've shit. Yeah, I'm shitting well. No, it's actually, okay, Adam, if you want the true, honest answer,

and they want the true, honest answer about my poops. Yeah, let's do it. Yeah. I'm listening. Always. It kind of hit me last night where it like it really, like I started to unfreeze up. Yeah. Unfreeze.

What? See, the thing is, is I'm, I'm, I'm finally starting to freeze, coagulate. Okay. Yeah. The butter's churning. Masticulate. What's the freeze part though?

I don't think my body is like, I don't need a ton of red meat. I don't, I never eat oysters. Okay, I'm listening. Like the things we were putting into our bodies, hurricanes, I mean, I drink buzz balls, they're sort of like a hurricane, but like the stuff in my system, some shrooms, I was doing some shrooming. Like, I think it just like my body like held on to it. And I just, I don't know, just didn't want to let go of nollens, baby.

Oh, so you were, you were backed up. The freezing is constipating. Is that what that is? See, I was the, I was the opposite. Yeah. I would imagine I would be more like an Adams camp of slippery sloppies. Yeah. No, I wasn't.

I'm, I'm definitely. Yeah. No, I wasn't. See, I'm sure a lot of people thought we were kind of go in depth about the weekend and like that experience, but no, we, no, no, no, no, no. But then five minutes ago you wrote the script to talk about diarrhea and now here we are. Yeah. We didn't get the email.

No, I wrote it on bourbon street. What's my next line? You were thinking about it. You were thinking about what people will be thinking, what the angle is. I wrote it on bourbon street. I'm like, what does TII nation want to talk, want to talk about? Trust the plan. I will say that guys, you guys would be proud of our fans.

We saw a lot of TII nation along the parade route. I saw probably like five or six signs. I saw a sign that said F paramount. E-M-S. What? Yeah. Paramount. Paramount.

Wow. Yeah. Blake put that up. I think Blake was presenting yours, Blake, and you 10 posts. Blake posted that one. I posted it. Yeah. We'll repost on the Insta.

Good job. Nice sign. We got a, I love your content. Okay. Nice sign. Nice sign, guys. Yeah. A poster.

I saw a TII nation poster. Hot, hot, hot, hot. Okay. Betcha it's important. A bunch of workaholics and pitch perfect posters, but we said the TII nation was out and proud. All right. Perfect. Yeah, they were.

They were. And they said, say hi to Kyle and Derz and we said. Nope. Hear it? You're not having it. Nah. Hell nah. Nah, dog.

But you just did. So that's cool. Thanks. Hi, guys. Hey, guys. Nice to have you. We got the message. Yeah.

So take that. Hi. And that's Blake's first take back. Yeah. Hope you had a wonderful Mardi Gras. So Kyle, Derz, ask us. Ask us questions. Come on.

Interview us. Ask us. Yeah. Hit us. What were you guys thinking? What about Mardi Gras? Go ahead, Derz. You can take it.

I feel like I'm listening. Come on, ask us. Super jelly was, I feel like I was with you in spirit. Had a bunch of family here in town. Couldn't make it. But yeah, the costumes, Adam, I don't know why you would ever wear anything else than that king's outfit for the rest of your days.

I thought you'd pull up today wearing full regalia. Well, doesn't it? It was kind of cool because I looked like, or like the, if you just had a beard on me, I kind of looked like their like cartoon Bakas king. Oh, like you embodied it? Very shaggy doing it. Like the Burger King.

The like sort of portly, like a guy that like for sure drinks a lot and beats a lot of meats and cheeses. The true Bakas. Yes. They finally found him. Yeah. So it was pretty natural when I, when I strapped on the gear, like all the Bakas people were like, we're like, we're like,

oh my, this is a natural fit. Right. Welcome home. You know, because you don't want to, like last year was Josh Dumel. You know, Josh Dumel. Oh, super handsome, giant head. Super handsome.

Big head. Too handsome. Jawline. Big head. Have you ever seen his head in person? Not in person. No. Way too handsome.

It's a heavy head. Yo, I, it's a head. I would love to talk to him about it because it is. Where in the wild is he not? It has a, it has a way about it. You want to turn, you want us to turn down or what? That was the old way. You couldn't be a star back in the day without a giant head.

I feel like that is changing a little bit now. Yeah. We're changing that. Ever since Beetlejuice, Howard Stern's Beetlejuice, I feel like now that's it. It's like, this works. Right. This works.

Yeah. So he was the guy last year. So Adam, you were just perfect? Yeah. It's kind of comical to see him dress as a king. It's like, all right. But for you, it's like, that's right. Yeah.

It was perfect. Everybody saw it and said it was a perfect fit, huh? Perfect. It's a perfect for New Orleans. So Bacchus is the god of merriment and wine. Thank you. Yes, Bacchus. So, oh, right.

Yes. Let's explain Bacchus. Let's step that out a little bit. Bacchus, I didn't, I didn't know what that was either. I was told, because I've never been. You didn't know you were living it? Yeah, that I've been living it for 39 years.

Yeah, baby. Well, maybe when they came up with the pictures of the Bacchus, when was that? When did they start cartooning this? Maybe it's a, like, 19, I want to say 1964? It's a reincarnated version of you, bro. Oh, God. You're a baller.

Oh, God. Oh, God. You're a passion. Oh, thank you, guys. Kyle, go into more of that. Go into more of that, Kyle. Yeah, Kyle, do you believe in reincarnation? I don't see how you can rule it out,

but I don't know what I believe in. You know what I mean? OK. Watch me. Yeah. Thank you, guys. But sometimes when something's so kismet, as the Bacchus.

As the Bacchus king, you're like, oh, something. There's another spirit working here. There's some different kind of energy. Right. If that's what they do is they dress Bacchus's every year, and this was the one. And they're like, you're it. Like, that means something.

That means something. He's a babe. That does. They let me choose my costume. They let me give them suggestions. So I. You designed it. That's why the butt was cut out the back.

Yeah, that's why my whole butthole was cut out. Right. OK, cool. He's like, yeah, let this out here. Easier for shitting. And I had a tube on my throne. So I could just shit. Yeah, I could just shit on the parade wrap.

Circle back. He brings it right back. Nothing you needed to. Just talk about that. Diarrhea. You got that five gallon bucket ready. You got the. I was legit so sore up until like yesterday,

mid-afternoon. I finally got unsore. From standing or walking? What part of your body? Yeah, what part of your body? From because I had to my left side of my back from bending over because I had these guys handing me beads. But there are three steps down.

So I had to bend over and pick up the beads and throw and throw. Are those beads heavy? Some of them. After, I mean, not initially, but after like four hours of throwing them, they get heavy. Yeah, they look heavy on the videos. They look heavy as fuck. So they were throwing like one or two at a time.

I was throwing like 12 at a time. And I was like, no way I'm going to be sore from this. It was legit. What? Yeah. You were thinking that already? Because they're heavy. Part of this great.

Man, this is fun. Good thing I won't be sore from this. Well, no, they told me they were like, you're going to be really sore tomorrow. Just know that you're going to be exhausted, super sore. And they weren't like, they weren't ahead of that. They're like, people before were sore. So we've actually made their guy three steps higher.

No, no, no, no. OK, you're right. No, because then it would block the view of me. No, they take pride in telling you beforehand. But they can't put it on like a selfie stick and just have him like reel it up to you so you don't have to bend over. Then I'm not throwing enough.

It's the soreness is part of it. What do you do? You get the thing with it like boats have with the hook and you just you reel them up. It would slow it down. It would slow it down, Derz. Hey, hey, watch it next year. If they hear this next year.

A robot hand. A robot hand, thank you. I have a three foot grabber and my son has like a one and a half foot little toy grabber. Kyle, you're Bacchus next year. You're doing it. And whoever's Bacchus.

Oh, he'll be working for the Bacchus. Yeah, a sober Bacchus. I don't know. I don't know if they've ever had that. That's kind of cool. That's not cool. That'd be a game changer. Just like, yeah.

I would look like Dr. Octopus. He's just like. Bacchus, yeah. The God of non-alcoholic wine and merriment. No, Kyle, that's the thing. By the way, I like how Adam's like truly offended. He's like, yeah, that'd work. Fucking God of war and sober.

I'm like, not having it. Not having it at all. Try it. Put your name out there, Kyle. Yeah, good luck with that. I'll tell you right now, Kyle. It's a problem. I hope you get murder.

Well, I'm on the dance and I'm not selecting you. I'm the real Bacchus. I'm the real Bacch boy. Okay. Kyle, you can start your own parade. You really can. Harry Connick Jr. did it. And yeah, he's doing pretty well at it.

So you could start a crew, dude. Oh, yeah. Copycat. The Kyle crew. That'd be sick. Is his ship brought to you by anything? Is he sponsored by stuff? You know he is.

He has to be. Acme and Wisterhouse probably. Probably. What do you mean? He has a dueling parade out there? Or what do you mean? Oh, Kyle, there's so many parades, brother. There's so many parades.

Oh, guys, tell me how Mardi Gras works. My grandmother loved it. My grandmother loved Mardi Gras. She always told me about how fun she had in Mardi Gras. Release the twins, boy. Yeah, Grant. Hey, Naked Grandma.

Naked Grandma. If I get a Naked Grandma. Yo, she rocked. Naked Grandma. I will say I didn't see any, I mean, of course, probably they're not flashing the Kings float. Right. Beneath me, by like eight, 10 feet,

there's like 20 kids of like a bunch of like nine and 10-year-old kids. And they're like my pages. They're there to help me throw out beats and stuff. We saw an alarming amount of boobs. Alarming. Ring me a alarm. Hold up.

Blake said he didn't really see any either, and people further down the float said they didn't. Blake just said he saw an alarming amount of boobs. Blake just said he saw an alarming amount. Not on the parade. Alarming amount is that there weren't any. Exactly, Durst. Thank you.

I saw an alarming amount of boobs. I'm a little worried about what's happening to Mardi Gras. I think we've lost because of cell phones. We've lost a little bit of alarming amount of boobs, meaning what, Blake? Very few. I think I saw like three sets the whole four to five days. I mean, I can imagine that as soon as they whipped out,

phones just go. Yeah, that's annoying as fuck. Okay, so here's the other thing. Yeah, so you know, there's balconies along Bourbon Street, and that's where you're really like, the parade is like family-friendly. Bourbon Street is like a crazy just- Other than the shootings.

Other than the shootings and stuff. That wasn't family-friendly, for sure. Besides that. There was there a shooting? Yeah, there was a shooting. Yes, there was a shooting. So sad. And we're not talking about like little shooters.

No, I don't want to start with the poop part, but we'll get there. Yeah, we'll get there. We're looping it right. Okay. Yeah, there was a shooting, but I guess there is like every year, and it's kind of, it's a bummer because it makes it-

Scary? It was such a fun event. It makes it a little sad. But you know, shit happens. Oh no, the whole thing is kind of scary. Even walking on, like it feels very like lawless. It is an interesting- Well, that's like Bourbon Street though.

When we shot House Party out there, that was like right when I got sober. And I was like, this is real? This is how we do it. Like what is going on out here? Yeah, but it's still the best. It's still the best. I'm not taking anything away.

Yeah. Oh no, no, no. I say this in the best way possible. It feels very like, oh my gosh, anything could happen. Even like good stuff, bad stuff. It's crazy. As far as the crime rate in New Orleans right now is like sky high. So, and this is the first year that Mardi Gras back full steam.

As far as that, I'm very happy that there wasn't more. Yeah, totally right. There wasn't more shootings. Like the fact that there was one is like, okay, but you know, it could have been much, much worse. And we had like security was all over, the police were out and about, you know, so they're doing their best. Well, I just remember going for only like 48 hours for house party

and getting there and I'm not going to name names, but somebody on the crew had just decided I'm going to go join the people and just walked away from production. Well, yeah, that happened quite a bit. Yeah, there was a, no, no, no. I mean, like disappeared and like nobody knew where she was. Yeah, there wasn't. I mean, sorry, it wasn't that she got kidnapped.

She left and was like, I'm going to just be part of this thing. Yeah. And everyone's like, how do we do this now? Our production experience in New Orleans was a handful. Make it come up. It was kind of like half. Well, the issue with that is that we didn't bring a lot of New Orleans crew. We brought a lot of our people from LA to New Orleans.

And then those people, they hear the jazz music playing, the delicious smell of the bignets are in the air. And they're like, you know what? I got to go join the people. If you're from New Orleans, this is your everyday life. So I feel like those, because I've worked in New Orleans quite a bit on movies and different things. And those crews are great.

It's the fact that we brought people. Adam was also a fisherman there. That we brought people. I was on a shrimp boat for a while. Oh boy. It's the fact that we brought people and they lost their minds. They couldn't handle the fun that was happening. Hey, speaking of when we did that on Frenchman Street,

did the parade go down on Frenchman Street as well? It didn't go down Frenchman Street. That's the fucking street, bro. Dude, that's the thing. I had no idea where I was at any time. Did you guys go to Frenchman Street, Adam? Did you go to Bamboo Loos and all that stuff? No, they basically said, no.

But I went, I was there over Christmas and we went then. I snuck out there. But I go to Frenchman. I go to Frenchman quite a bit. But no, we didn't go this time. I wasn't like, since I was Bacchus, they were super protective of me, essentially. Right.

That's who I was with. They weren't letting out the hotel room. So they were like, we don't want you to go out. Someone throws a bottle or something and you get hit in the head. And then now that's on the news. Right. Right.

That the Bacchus king, we can't protect the Bacchus king. And then now no one wants to be the Bacchus king, which is silly as it is. I hope that was their example. That was. Hey, we can't let you out. If a bottle hits you, you're like. That literally was.

Or like someone else. Because there's assholes out there that are like, oh, that's the king of the Bacchus parade this year. Fuckin' huck this bottle. That's a cool flick. That's Adam DeVine. Yeah, that's Adam DeVine. I'm trying to punch Adam DeVine.

Save the Bacchus king. Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, I've been out in New Orleans hundreds of times and that's never happened. So I felt pretty confident it wasn't going to happen. But yeah. You would have caught the bottle anyway, dude. You're a G.

Yeah, in my teeth. And chugged it. That's where the Bacchus, dude. You're the god of wine. In my tiny little teeth. Can I get a marryment? Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart.

I'm a neuroscientist and an author at Stanford University. And I've spent my career exploring the three pound universe in our heads. On my new podcast, I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling unusual questions so we can better understand our lives and our realities. Like, does time really run in slow motion

when you're in a car accident? Or can we create new senses for humans? Or what does dreaming have to do with the rotation of the planet? So join me weekly to uncover how your brain steers your behavior, your perception, and your reality. Listen to Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Last season, millions tuned into the Betrayal podcast to hear a shocking story of deception. I'm Andrea Gunning, and now we're sharing an all new story of Betrayal. Ashley Lytton was helping her husband set up a business Venmo account when she discovered a terrible secret. I scrolled down, and that's when I saw

a hidden folder, and I opened it. What the hell did I just see? I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I gotta get out of the house. He's gonna find out that I've seen this, he's gonna come kill me.

Thursdays on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or anywhere you get your podcasts. So, yeah, it was a blast. Legendary. What night was the fucking peak? Oh, man. What, like, did you guys progress properly? I feel, well, the parade was for sure. Yeah.

Because the parade route, there's, like, millions of people along the parade route, right? And it was, I would say, much, much, much crazier than the Macy's Day parade. Macy's was, like, the streets are wider. This is the way. But, I mean, there was probably the same amount of people, but, like, it was just mayhem.

It was, like, people are right up on the floor screaming, like, chanting, like, truly losing their minds. And then we come into the convention center, and there's 10,000 people waiting. That was the craziest part. And then the whole parade goes past the convention center, and then we loop back around. Sorry, you go into the convention center,

like, down onto the floor, and then back out? Yes. And then we go around. And then people can sit there, buy tickets, and be like, oh, yeah, sick. Yeah. And those are all Bacchus members, or close friends and family of Bacchus members.

In the stadium. Convention center, yeah. That's dope. Oh, nice. Yeah, you don't want to be out in the street with the riffraff. Yeah, and that's like a black tie gala. So everyone's in tuxedos and nice gowns. And it's also BYOB, so it's nice gowns,

with coolers full of vodka. It was hilarious. Right, just boxes of wine. That's the thing. Everything you think is about to be normal. Oh, this is a black tie event with dresses and all that. Then there is BYOB, and you're like, what the fuck? And they're like, we got crawfish in our cooler,

and you're like, I fucking love this place. That's the thing. New Orleans just throws you curveballs in every corner. That's great. I like that. You could do a black tie event, but you have picnic status and bring your own booze and shit. That's fucking radical.

It's wild. I like that. I want in on that. Give me some of that. Then they had mixers on the table. They provided the soda water and the coke and the, yeah. Leaders of cola. Oh, that's so ill.

Like the condiments, if you're cooking hot dogs. It's cool, dude. And then the Beach Boys performed. They did. Oh, sure. The Beach Boys. Who, which ones? Was Brian Wilson there?

No, Brian Wilson was not there. No, not Brian Wilson. That sucks. I don't think he... Sucks. The other Beach Boys. Mick Fleetwood. Mike Love.

Is Mike Love? Mick Jagger. Mike Bro. Mike Love. All the money. Kevin Love's uncle. It was really... Right.

We did talk about this. We covered this. Really? Damn, son. Where'd you find this? That's interesting. Kevin Love in the Miami Heat. The Beach Boys were sick.

We definitely had a little Beach Boys mosh pit going. That's good. I like that too. Dude, I couldn't help myself. I was with Zach. I wish I was pizza. We're like California boys. What song were you moshing to?

Wouldn't it be nice? Dude. Wish they all could be killed. You know when I was a kid, I never understood that song? What do you mean? I didn't get it. Oh, really? I got it.

And I was kind of bummed by that because I was like, why didn't he switch it to New Orleans girls? Because his California girls, dude. Because the song is California girls. Yeah. No, I know. But I mean, you're in New Orleans in Mardi Gras. People would like it.

They would like it, but you kind of... They would like it. But actually sing it, though. Yeah. Look at Adam, a man of the people. California, New Orleans. I don't know, man. It might sound a little weird.

Wish they all could be New Orleans girls. I would have moshed you, New Orleans girls. You just extend the New Orleans girls. It's fun. You could ex... Okay. You could ex the number two brother. Bumper.

Okay. Kyle just got bumps. It doesn't have the same ring to it. As a California born and bred, it has to be that. You cannot change that song. Wait, but let me just say this. I didn't understand California girls, the song when I was a kid. Yeah.

What's up with that? I was like, so he's saying, as a kid, I was like, so he's saying all these girls, I wish they could all be California girls. Like, we got rid of all the farmer's daughters or whatever the fuck it was, the East Coast girls and made them California girls. I didn't realize he was saying, I wish they could all be here in California. Yes. You thought it was like some weird science thing

where we were bringing in all the Midwestern girls. I thought it was eugenics. Putting in a machine and creating California. I like it. It's cool for Kyle. I guess I didn't really ever break down California girls when I was a kid. I was... But do you, did you realize that's what it was?

I'm just, my mind's being blown right now. I'm kind of like, I don't know. Really? Yeah. I don't know. I just never really gave a thought. I only hear California girls. I didn't, I've never heard the actual lyrics.

I know. That's why I'm clowning on Kyle who's like, I'm proud of my California girls. I'm like, I think this song is about girls from everywhere and he's wishing they could be in California. Yeah, because it's like the way they talk. They keep their boyfriends out of that. Wait, so no one, no one moves it. Dude, you're blowing my fucking mind right now

and I love you for this. Well, that is, I wish they all could be California girls. And I don't think that he's saying I wish they all could be here in California. I wish, I think he's saying I wish they were all like cool, blonde. That's what I thought. Beautiful beach girls. No, because he's talking about. That's what it isn't.

That's what I thought it was. It's not that. He's complimenting all these different regions of girls and he's saying he wishes they were all in California. Or he wishes California spirit was everywhere or he's doing that, right? So this guy's like a horny old dude. Oh yeah, he's down.

He wanted a huge female migration to the West Coast. He wanted the trail of beers and boobs. Or he wants the California vibe to go everywhere, which is what the Beach Boys did. That's what I thought it was. I did too, but I don't think it's that. If you listen to the song, he's talking about how great different girls are from everywhere

and he's like, I wish they were all California girls. All I can think of right now is. We were just there and he serenaded us and I still didn't clock that fully. Yeah, well, yeah. Let me get the lyrics. Admittedly, I wasn't in a, I saw a photo of Blake leaving the event that someone posted.

I'm like, oh, I haven't seen Blake like this in a long time. I was like. Yeah. Like Comic Con dragged out? Yeah. Yeah, he was fully cross-eyed. By the end of that night, I was starting to feel like a little sick.

I was starting to feel sick. Well, the sugar drinks do not. By the way, we made it to the end. We did, hell yeah. Yeah, with Anthony Mackie, I saw. We were the second king in the history of Bacchus to make it to the end and I knew we would. Okay.

Barely. We were hanging on by a thread. Was it truly close? Was it a close call? Oh, it was, it was like, people were like, you have to leave. People in your party are like passing out. Like, you know, people are fully cross-eyed.

Yeah, you didn't care. I was like, five minutes. We have to make it. I was like, we had to make it. And literally they turned on the lights and I'm like, let's go. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, carry me.

Carry me out of here. You just fell back like Jesus Christ and had him carry you. We caught him. He trust fall. He did a trust fall. We all caught him. Trust fell. But I would say that, I mean, that night was epic.

But it was like. Exhausted. It was a lot. It felt like a little bit of like, like a wedding. You know, when you're the, you know, we've all been married. The, when you get married, it's not the best day usually. Like it, like the ceremony is awesome. But like, for me, it was like, you're glad-handing a lot.

You're saying hi to all the aunts and uncles. You're going, you're talking. You're tipping around to the waiters and staff. You're doing all that instead of like the two days before party was like the most fun and where it's just like you're relaxed. You're having a good time. You're with your friends and family. And that I think was the same.

They, they had like a. You're wrestling your uncle in the pool. For sure. Yeah. You're fighting your uncle in the pool. They had a big party, a black tie event called the Kings Gala. And that was like, we all wore tuxedos and went to, and it was like a nice ball, which was like, it would have been better than any wedding.

Was that the cooler one? No, that was, that this was all catered. It's, it's smaller. There was like probably like 500 people there or something, but. It was at a World War II museum and I shotgun beers and they're like, this is a museum. You got to stop. And I was like, oh really?

Yeah. Yeah, dude. And you were like, yo, are you from here? What the fuck? Sorry. This is what I want to know. I want these moments. I'm like, this is what soldiers died for so that I could shotgun beers.

That is true. Yep. Yes. He'd kept saying that. This is what soldiers died for. Really? Yeah, I said that. You too.

I'm a man. Brought you by a buzz ball. Damn, bro. Yeah. And that, that I think was probably my favorite night. Blake, what was your, what was your favorite? Oh God, they're all just one big night, really. But there was a night that me and Mikey Lovano snuck out to the mom's ball,

which was a really trippy thing that Kyle, I think he would have liked. It was like a. I saw this on Instagram and I was like, what's the mom's ball? It was kind of like the, like the hipster, hipster ball of New Orleans. Like it's something about like outcasts. I forget what the acronym stood for, but it was like for like misfits. Outcasts. Outcasts.

And motherfuckers. Mayhem or some shit. And Mama Jammer. Motherfuckin' whip. Wow, son. Kyle, Kyle's in. Yeah, Kyle. So it was like costume mandatory and me and Mikey rolled up with just like some hats.

Like, oh yeah, this will count. And there's a dude outside checking for costumes. He's like, mm-mm, you're going to jail. You're going to jail. So you go to this thing called costume jail. And it's this big tent with a bunch of like random ass gear in it. And as soon as you walk in, the girl's like, take your shirts off. So me and Mikey, we're like, we don't have tickets.

She's like, whip your dicks out. Put them in each other's butts. We would have. We would have. We didn't have any tickets. We'd have anything to speak for. So. But fuck your best friend.

Right. We would have. I'm not. We would have. We would have. We might have. We might have. But I don't fully.

We would have. At that point in the night, you might have. So we stripped down. They like threw me in some lingerie. They put Mikey in like a big ass sweater for some reason. Right. They're like, they don't want to see him in lingerie. And then you can't.

So you walk in and everybody's like, the theme was like space and alien. Right. You were in a dress or something? Yeah. They threw me in lingerie and like put a tail on my ass. You look great. Thanks, man. Where'd you put your clothes that you were wearing?

What happened to those? Dude, they're just gone. Really? They're just gone? Yeah. You just lose them. No. Yeah.

They're just gone. Wow. You really lived that life, huh? Yeah, dude. It was sick. Damn. You just left them on the ground in the fucking jail? You just throw t-shirts away?

Dude, that party. Your t-shirts are like $5,000. Yeah. You got $5,000 t-shirts you just tossing out. You're still going to send it. It's OK. He's got a whole little storage locker full. Yeah.

There's more where that came from. But it was like basically like a warehouse party with three stages. There were like these crazy jam bands going into and then in the third warehouse was like. But like jazz, jazz jam bands? Yeah. Like there's saxophones in every band and shit.

But it was just a jazz band. No, no, dude. It was jam band shit. Like they had like fish? Well, jazz is jamming. So it was jammy jazz. It was jammy jazz. Yeah, probably jammy soul jazz kind of thing.

OK. But there's like it's like all like black light shit and like trippy. Yeah. Well, you know that there's different music besides just jazz music in New Orleans? That's true. They play all kinds of music there.

It's just a very musical city. Right. But he's saying jam band and that to me is like fish. And I'm like, really? So they're playing like that kind of music there as opposed to. No, it was. It was more it was more leaned fish than jazz for sure.

It was at this point. But then the third room was like a 360 stage with just two like electronic drummers. And like these weird ass helmets almost felt like a Daft Punk drumming. And it was fucking. It was cool 360. Are they back to back?

Oh, yeah. But wasn't it also kind of like an orgy? Wasn't wasn't blowjobs and kind of lingus happening all over? That's the fourth room. So the fourth. Here we go. The fourth room is like. Take your shirt off.

This is why you said I dig it. So I can say. Yeah. Yeah. No, dude. It's like. Suck your best friend's dick. Fuck your best friend.

Right. He saw my best friend. So the reason I even knew about mom's ball is like I got a few DMs that are like, dude, you need to pull up the mom's ball because it's like fucking gets weird. And I'm like. And DMs from people, you know,

or just a strangers and you're like, God, I just follow my nose. You got to follow my nose. Just the nose of his dick. Yeah. OK. Yeah. It's just something you have to experience.

Points. Morgan Hawks movie. Never gonna happen. DOA. Weird, wild stuff. Yeah. So there's like this fourth part of the room that supposedly is like sex show shit.

But when me and Mikey got in line, it for some reason it closed down. They came over and they're like. You waited in line for the section. You have to, dude. Fucking creep. Dude, I had to see it all, man. I had to see it.

Well, you did. And they didn't give a. Yeah. But if you see it, you got to smell it. I don't know. What's that room fucking? What the things smell like. I don't know.

Very shagged yelling. Wait. So you didn't get to, you didn't get to go in? Kyle, I, we didn't get to go in. Some old lady came out and she's like, show's over. Not, it's not happening. Show's over.

She fucking just limped past you. She threw her titties over her shoulders and said, show's over. Sixty nine titties. Show's over, fellas. I'm sorry. You look at, by the way, I do love if like the old lady walks out, throws her titties over her shoulder.

Show's over and just limps away. And then you look in the door and there's just like. Twelve dudes exhausted on the ground. Durs, just heavily breathing. I like, I like talk to people who went in and they're like, there's like these drills with dildos at it. Like it sounded like it got weird in there, dude. I don't know.

Drill does. Weird wild stuff. Weird wild stuff. Like part of me is like kind of hyped that we didn't get in, but. Right. It was the Eastern European porno with like the dudes in the room who just fucked through the hole. Kyle, this is your heaven.

This is where I need to go sober as a judge and just be like fucking watching on the wall. Just like, what's going on over here? And just remember everything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was, I think that was the same night that me and Chloe

renewed our vows drunkenly at like three. That's right. Was that the same night? Bump all the vows. Mike. You got ahead of it. You already did that? Yeah, we got ahead of it.

That's. Well, it was, we were drunk. And we were saying how bummed we were that Sam. Blake's girl didn't get to be at our wedding. She wasn't at our wedding. And we were like, oh, we're so bummed at that. And she was like, well, you should do it again. And like, we're doing it again.

And then Mikey was like, I'm an ordained minister. I could do that shit right now. And we're like, we're doing it right now. And then I like didn't remember until the next day when they're like, yeah. And then you wouldn't, you renewed your vows and then everything like came back to me. And I was like, oh, shit.

And then I was like, and none of us were wearing pants. And sure enough, there's videos of like all of us just with our pants at our ankles getting underwear still on underwear still on and renewing our vows with with Mikey giving a speech. Yeah, nice. Literally the end of every night. I do not remember.

That sounds insane, by the way. I do not. But wait, tell me about the mornings. Like, how are we feeling? Oh my God, the morning. Is there like a sense of camaraderie? So we know how much I drink caffeine, right? Everyone know, like you guys know, I'm a real addict.

I have five, six cups of coffee every day. And then I switch to Red Bull or soda for the rest of the day. Did you have to zee? I didn't have one cup of coffee. Yeah. I immediately went to vodka. I immediately went to Red Bull Vodkas. Yes, points.

A no, like a Bloody Mary or like a screwdriver. So no caffeine the whole week. Yeah, I just like didn't. I ended up like later in the night, I would I'd have like a Red Bull Vodka or something. But six or seven. I never just had like a cup of coffee or a soda or anything that didn't have alcohol in it.

It was truly insane. Did you ever have a water? Yeah. Kyle, shut the fuck up. Oh, Jesus Christ. I just want to get while we're here. Did you have water? While we're here, I'm going to ask the question.

I want to know if you survive. Dude, I'm really good at drinking water. Okay. I'm a fucking pro water drinker. That's cool. Yeah, you know my guy drinks water. I fucking chug water, homie. What yo ass say?

Don't say that as Bacchus, bro. Yeah, don't talk to Bacchus about drinking water, dude. Water's ice, dude. Ice has water in it, dude. Well, I heard Bacchus is good at drinking water, so I think it's important to show all of Bacchus. That's your crew, Kyle, the freaking hydrators. That's your crew.

I think it's important to let the people know all of Bacchus. I do like a classic college bro chugging a water where you take the end and just smash it in your face and drink the whole thing as fast as you can. Fucking drink it as aggressive as you want, bro, but let them know that Bacchus drinks water. Get it done. Yeah, yeah, Bacchus drinks water.

We beer-bonged water the whole time. Bro, that's sick. There's a lot of water drinking. Admittedly, little bums that we didn't have a beer-bong in the suite. We had like this nice hotel suite where that was in between my room and Blake's room that everyone partied in.

We should have had a beer-bong in there. You got to put that in your rider, whatever your contract is. I should have. What kind of Bacchus are you? You didn't even have fucking beer-bong. Unbelievable. Yeah, I know.

I haven't beer-bonged in so long. He's a water drinking Bacchus. That's what he is. Kyle's asking the hard hitting question. Yeah, embarrassing, embarrassing. Oh, no, I'm proud of Bacchus. I love Bacchus still. It doesn't change anything to me.

Thanks, Kyle. Yeah, no, that's a cool Bacchus. That's a 2023 Bacchus. You drink water. It's a well-rounded, three-dimensional Bacchus. Yes. But the mornings were a little rough. One of the first days, we went to a chef alaya,

which is this amazing restaurant, and we were having like a brunch there. And that was the hardest one for me to get. I felt like I wasn't living up to my Bacchus kingly names because everyone's giving- People were trying to shake your hand, and you're like, I'm dragging us. People were giving speeches and stuff.

And everywhere I went, I was giving a speech. Yes. Like, I gave a speech. We stopped along the parade route. I gave a speech to the mayor. I talked with the mayor and weirdly Joey Fatone. So I talked with the mayor. That's dope.

Why is that weird? Just who's a random celebrity, you know? Joey Fatone. I don't get it at all. Feels really natural to me. And Darren Criss. And so talked with them. Oh, wait, Darren Criss is the guy

who's the mix of all three of us, right? Is that right? Who's Darren Criss? I don't know who this is. I found a picture of him that looks like we all had a baby and it's him. And it's a boy? It's a boy.

We had a baby and it's a boy. Anyway, I'm sorry. I still can't believe that's a Geico. I could see that. I could see that happening. He's leaner than all of us, though. He's a slight man. He's a tiny guy.

I mean, we got Blazer. Don't worry. I mean, we got Blazer pulling that way. Yeah, baby. Okay. All right. Blake's not that slight, though. Blake's a thick, hearty bitch.

I mean, I have my shirt off a lot. Can we see? Can we get that shirt off? Get you in some lingerie? No, not now. I got to lose a few. I got to lose a few. All right, fair enough.

I've got the New Orleans 15 on me. Dude, weirdly, I think I shit it right off. I'm lighter than when I went. You lose! I'm light. I weigh less than what I went. You probably didn't eat, right? No, I ate all the time.

Ders, all we did was fucking eat, dude. Oh, yeah? Blake, I'm good. Relax, dude. Ders! Dude, all we did was eat. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart.

and I opened it. What the hell did I just see? I was scared that he was coming home. What Ashley discovered that day was a secret so dark she feared for her life. She was like, oh my god, I gotta get out of the house. He's gonna find out that I've seen this, he's gonna come kill me.

I floss when I got home and it tasted like a po-boy and I was never gross, more grossed out of my life. Because you didn't remember having a po-boy. It was like full-on shrimp po-boy. I was like, go, whoa, whoa.

And is that your go-to food of choice when you're in the islands? Yeah, I go shrimp po-boy usually, or fried host oyster po-boy. Is it a wet sandwich? Is it, or is it pretty dry? No, it's pretty dry. It's mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is what makes it wet. Right.

Was the shrimp dry? No, the shrimp was nice and juicy. The shrimp's gotta be a little wet though, doesn't it? I like a wet wet. It's actually the most refreshing thing you eat of all the New Orleans foods is like a po-boy. Because you're like, it's solid, it's at least. Yeah.

Yeah, it's like a deli sandwich has lettuce on it. Yeah. You're like, okay. Yeah, you feel like it's not that, but you could also get a ham, and essentially it's just like a ham sandwich, or a turkey po-boy. You can get anything.

We know how you feel about those. Perfect po-boys rock. Yeah. Ham sandwich. God, I ate so much gumbo. What is, isn't there like a lot of fried food? A lot of char-grilled oysters. A lot of char-grilled oysters,

which are like oyster covered in butter, and they're fucking delicious, but. Sounds like you might have slipped into ketosis while you were out there, buddy. I might have. That's why I came back later. Yeah. I came back and I was like,

I was like scared to step on the scale, and I stepped on it and was like, oh, hey, bitch. I don't know what ketosis is, by the way. My body responds well to just eating and consuming 12,000 calories a day. That's what I have to do. And that's what you said to Chloe who was standing in the bathroom?

Yes. Not okay. That's what we call each other. We call each other bitch. Hey, bitch. By the way, what's cool is there's a couple out there that does that, and you know they throw down. Oh yeah, they're fun.

They're a fun couple. Hey, bitch. Where's my bitch? Bitch, get in here. Hey, actually, my bag's upstairs, bitch. Would you mind bringing it down? You got it, bitch. Hey, bitch.

You gotta be comfy with that. Anything for you, bitch. Anything for you, bitch. Good night, bitch. Good night, bitch. Love you too, bitchy. Because then it's like when you're mad at them, you can just kind of get away with it where you're like,

all right, you know what, I'm done. I'm going to bed, bitch. Yeah, I think you should go to bed, bitch. Where's my dinner, bitch? No, when you're mad, you switch it up and you go, you know what, honey? Oh, I know. The condescending, sweetie.

You never say sweetie. Why do you do that? Adam, what I'm saying is you get to get away with it. Oh, you get away with it. Okay. As opposed to being like when I say condom, serious. Whoa. If you say bitch, like you get to say bitch.

Happy Valentine's Day, bitch. That's true. Yeah, happy Valentine's Day, bitch. That's not what I mean. That's not what I mean. That makes sense. Good actor, dude. It's a pet name.

Yeah. I guess we don't have to celebrate my birthday, bitch. I'm a man. That's fine. That's fine. I wasn't hungry anyway. Well, get your dick hard for once, bitch. Bitch.

Well, maybe we add your dick hard for once, bitch. Well, maybe if your dick could get hard, bitch, we would celebrate your birthday, bitch. I'm not sure. I'm listening. Maybe if you could get it hard, bitch. Be cool if you got a job, bitch. Are you listening?

Well, you know Paramount Plus took that away from me, bitch. You know that to be true, bitch. I'm sorry, bitch. Thank you, bitch. I don't know why we go here, bitch. We're always fighting. The worst is like answering the question of like, what are you working on now?

Right now? Yeah. By the way, went to a screening of Cocaine Bear. It's so fucking good. It's so fun. It really is. It's a really fun movie. Yeah.

It's really, really fun. But I went to a screening and, you know, it's all like industry people and it's just a lot of like, so what are you working on now? And it's just a lot of like, Donkey. Well, they canceled our movie. So it's just a lot of, and they're like,

OK, so what are you doing now? And I'm like, bitch. Right. Sir, bitch. Bitch, I was a King of Bacchus. I would have been shooting this week, bitch. This would have been our first week of shooting, bitch. I got to fucking recalibrate, bitch.

It takes a while to steer the ship. Bitch, you can't get another project in a week, bitch. Bitch, it takes a long ass time, bitch. Yeah, bitch. So what, so what do you say? Recovering from Bacchus? Playing pickleball. Yeah.

No, essentially I would say that because people were astounded because I know all those guys like Elizabeth Banks who directed the movie also was the producer and directed the second Pitch Perfect. And she produced all of the Pitch Perfects. So like, I know her whole crew just from the years. And Bumper, right? And Bumper.

And Bumper in Berlin, which is my current show on Peacock. Now streaming on Peacock. Streaming on Peacock. Atta forgot. Totally did. And lived in Germany. So I know her whole crew, so people were like, bitch, what are you working on?

And I didn't have anything good to say. So essentially they were actually in shock that I wasn't drinking. Right. Whoa, I am too, actually. I was drinking a soda. And they were like, wait, you're not having, did you go sober or something?

And I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Bacchus, bitch. But wasn't this, Adam, thank God you finally went sober. Like, whoa, whoa, whoa, no. Oh, yeah, it was a lot of like, oh, well, we saw that coming. Oh, you went sober, thank God. Cool, yeah. Good, good, good, good, good, good.

Oh, God, thank God, you were an absolute nightmare. We've all talked about it. Oh, good. You know, we've all kind of been waiting for this to happen. Yeah, we were all waiting for this to happen. And then I went, bitch, that's life. Bitch, I'm taking one day off. Bitch, I'm taking the night off.

Well, that's cool. I can't wait to see it. Yeah, me too, me too. Yeah, I'm going to have to check that. And hopefully it spurs like a renaissance of movies that fucking go. Yeah, exactly. Of fun movies?

Yeah, because it is just a really fun and it's super gory. I was like very pumped with the amount of like true gore. Like it's foul at certain points that you're just like, oh, and now eating his guts and dragging the body with the intestines and the body's being dragged with. Are you having a laugh? Very like how a bear would probably do it and take their shit and then amped.

Oh my god. Amped up. Yes, it was so graphic in a way that you're just like, my god, man. I follow this thing on Instagram. It's a account on Instagram called nature is metal. Do you guys know about this? Oh yeah, huge fan of nature is metal. I think I've heard of it.

It's just fucking brutal. Like there's so many brutalities that happen in nature. It's like, fuck. So it's videos of animals killing people or other animals? It's other animals. No, no, no, no. Not it. Yeah, it's animal on animal.

Yeah. It's nature shit. Animal on animal, violent. I want to see them killing people. But well, that you have to tune into faces of death. That's where you got to get those VHSs, bro. That's cool. Nature is metal.

Nature is metal. Have to dig out the old VHSs. Animals are metal. Damn, son. Where'd you find this? It's really brutal. They'll just show animals ripping apart other animals and like hunting and stalking and stuff.

I mean, we put it in on workaholics. We had the classic video of the turtles eating the mice. Oh yeah. Oh, right. I mean, they're saying metal and I'm thinking, that's got to be the video that started it all. Right, that's it. I think it is.

That's exactly the archetype of what this has expanded from. I mean, before people go there, it is, some stuff is really hard to watch because there are things where like animals are fucking crazy, bro. So like, they'll have half their fucking body eaten and just kind of be walking like nothing's wrong. And you're just like, oh my god, what happened? What attacked this animal?

I would do the same thing. I can see you doing that. Derz is such an animal, bro. I can see you showing up with like just a huge cut. Robot. I mean, think about the woman who was stomping the grapes when she fell. She went full animal.

Oh yeah. It's in all of us. It is. What's crazy is I feel like, I mentioned that not too long ago, and I was talking with a bunch of kids that were probably like 20. And they were like, they're like 10. No, but they, I was like, they were talking viral videos.

And I said something about this, this stomp, the grape stomping lady. And they're like, what? And I'm like, yeah, when she fell over, and she was like, ow, ow, ow, ow. Yeah, they don't know it. No. I'm like, oh shit, bitch.

I was there when the internet started. True. You know when Charlie Chaplin almost roller skated off that, you know, and you're like, you remember all Duke Buster Keaton when the house collapsed and he was fine? Have you never seen that? No.

I have not checked that out. Did this work? Ow, ow, ow, ow, stop, stop, stop. I found it in the back again. Oh, sorry, I have big Frida lined up. Fucking remix. Big Frida, the dick Eda. Oh, dang.

He blew the wad for the end of the pod. No, man, come on. Big Frida, I was, that was, she's a New Orleans queen. Bounce queen. And I was in a, we filmed a little music video with Big Frida and myself. Yeah, that was a great day. Legit passed out afterwards.

You did. It was like 110 degrees. This is a long time ago, right? Shooting house party. This was when we were shooting house party. This dude came out like, you must have been, you were on fire when we were shooting house party though. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. You were out till fucking, I don't know if you slept when we were making that project. Yeah, it was not a whole lot of sleeping happening. Yeah. And then we got the bounce queen of New Orleans coming in to do a video. So cool.

And it's like 105 degrees outside. It was so, it was one of the hottest days. It was. It was sticky hot over there. And we're shooting in this like parking lot. And it's just take, we don't have a lot of time to shoot it. So it's like, get the energy, go Adam. And Adam, when you start up, it goes.

Probably did like four takes of it. Yeah. And then. Of me just shaking my ass with a bunch of her booty dancers. Men and women. And the song is like, how to make the booty go bounce, bounce. How to make the booty go bounce, bounce. And then you, you got through it.

And then afterwards I like fucking passed out. We got to find that track. Yeah. Which one do you think it is, man? What was it? Yeah. You could find a big freedom song. It was.

I mean, I. Well, we could dig out that clip from house party. Is it this one? Hold on. No, no, no. That's a different. I think it's just a picture. No, this is.

No. No, that's a completely. That's a queen. That's just a bad. That's queen. That's queen. That's fucking remix. That's not that.

Oh, here we go. Is it make your booty go? Yeah. That's it. I mean, it could be, but they're all, they all sound the same. Whoa. This. Hold on.

I mean, same, same. Bounce music. They bounce music to me all sounds the very much the same. It has a, it has a sound. Right. Well, you're not deep in it. Well, no, I'm not deep in it. But that is.

A lot of my vinyls are bounce music from New Orleans from that time because I was like, what's, what is, what came out of New Orleans? And they're like, bounce, you got to get Ricky B bounce. And I'm like, oh, fuck you, Kyle. Yeah. Dust them off. Oh, they're great. Part of me wishes Adam was deep into it.

And he was like a guy who went and spoke at like conferences about it and was like, well, actually in, in the nineties, around 95, we had a sea change. Privative of. Right. It's New Jersey house. A bounce music scholar. Right.

It would be fucking awesome. That would be, that would be so tight. Oh, yeah. New Orleans is a cool place because there's so many super, super talented people, the trombone shorties, the Kermit Ruffins. Fuck yeah. Ruffins, bro. No, people that are like truly very talented musicians and artists.

And then there's just a guy, you know, standing on a corner and being like, skimmy, do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. And then you realize that guy's Dr. John. As a tourist, you're like, is this good? He's Dr. John. You're like, I don't know. That's Dr. John. Yeah.

All right, Pete, bless his soul. Oh, dude, do you remember? He's not dead. There was like the. He is dead. I know, I know, I know. Oh, I don't think you were out, Adam. But we walked by this dude, or I mean, it was a drag queen who looked identical to John Gabris,

and it was singing his heart out, and it was amazing. Had a huge crowd of people, but just like, looked like John Gabris in like a beauty pageant wear and was just unbelievable. Well, that's on like, they have so many great. Street performers in New Orleans, like everywhere, like Royal, Royal Street. Yeah, Royal Street is straight up. There's a lot of great ones. And then there's also, it's the same thing as LA. We're like a lot of really great actors that move here and they become the biggest stars.

And a lot of people that move here and then don't and are still very talented. And then there's also lunatics who move to Los Angeles who are like, I'm a good actor. And then they're just crazy people. And then they're on seminary. You know what, though? I feel like there's an infrastructure, and by the way, I'm talking on my ass, but I feel like there's an infrastructure in New Orleans for those people. And 30 years after being the crazy person, playing jazz in the back of like a fucking donut shop,

everyone's like, you know, that's the realest dude here. They're an institution. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's probably true. And everybody who's like 20 years younger, like gets them to like drum on their album or whatever. I'm like, this guy's fucking, he's the fucking fabric of this shit. Yeah, that's probably true. If you're crazy for long enough, you become an institution.

And in LA, we just send you downtown. No, yeah. Well, in LA, you become like the Hollywood Jesus or Angeline or I think it's the same. If you're lucky. If you're lucky. But it's different. Surviving 20 years of Hollywood and surviving 20 Mardi Gras, you got stripes, dude. Like, that's incredible.

Yeah, but Mardi Gras only make you stronger. That is true. I know. I feel stronger from it. That's only once a year, dude. That's all. Running Canyon. It's a misnomer.

Running Canyon ain't to get in better shape, buddy. That shit runs you rabbi. It breaks, dude. It breaks an illusion. We got any takebacks, apologies, any epic giveaways. I know Blake has a takeback from the very beginning of this podcast. I can't even remember it. Yeah, me neither.

I don't need that. Well, I have the lyrics to California Girls Up right here and there is. If you could read it like a poem, it would be really cool. All right, well, this is a lyric. Well, East Coast girls are hip. I really dig those styles they wear. And the Southern girls, with the way they talk, they knock me out when I'm down there.

The Midwest farmers' daughters really make you feel all right. Yep. And the Northern girls, and the Northern girls, with the way they kiss, they keep their boyfriends warm at night. Minnesota. I wish they all could be California. Big fat lips. I wish they all could be California.

I wish they all could be California girls. Be California, not in California. Oh, girls, girls. Okay. The West Coast hat. Now, here we get to the West Coast. Girls, girls, girls, girls. Pizza, pizza.

Okay, okay, okay, okay. The West Coast has the sunshine and the girls all get so tanned. Yeah. I dig a French bikini on Hawaiian Island dolls. Man. Bi-Aved. Sure, that doesn't rhyme. Bi-A palm tree in the sand.

There it is. It must be in the way he phrases it. Oh, there we go. I think it's the way he read it, bitch. I think it's the way he read it, bitch. It must be in the way that he phrases it, that makes sense, because I butchered it. Bitch.

Okay, here's the key. I've been all around this great big world, and I've seen all kinds of girls. Yeah. But I couldn't wait to get back in the States, back to the cutest girls in the world. Oh, here we go. Here we go.

I wish they all could be California. I wish they all could be California. I wish they all could be California girls. New Orleans girls. And then that's it. Then it just repeats that. And then it just repeats that. Easy swap.

Both those verses gets repeated. And then it just repeats, I wish they could all be California girls. Hey, and that's why they were so successful, just the simplicity of it all. But he's saying that American girls are, he wants American girls to be California girls. Right?

Yes. Oh. Yeah. The first verse makes it seem like I want all the girls to come to California. And then the second verse is like, his boys were like, dude, what the fuck are you doing? And he's like, all right, I got it on the second verse.

And then on the second verse is like, California girls are the best. Yeah, it's splitting. Probably Brian Wilson took it off the rails and they're like, that's not what this song is about, dude. What are you doing? The fuck are you doing, man? He's like, hey, well, let my best friend,

Charles Manson, sing on this. And they're like, I don't know. Right. I wish I had a machine to put girls in and turn them into California people. It's like, what the fuck is this bro talking about? Yeah. Oh, I don't know.

Charlie wrote that. Yeah, Charlie wrote that. Yeah, Charlie, Charlie wrote that. Their blood tastes better than other girls. I want to cut off all their head. Hey, I love to drink their blood. Charles, okay, it's cool that you're hanging out, but we don't really need your input on the lyrics.

Thank you. I don't know. I just think it's super relatable to talk about how good California girls blood taste, but whatever. Just, thanks. Take your knife and get out of here, please. I'll start my own club, bitch.

Well, good luck, Spawn Ranch. Yeah, watch. Here you go. I'm going to spawn my own crew. Hey, did you bring this salad and this ranch dressing? Spawn Ranch. Any giveaways? Any takebacks?

Any epic slams? Oh, shit. I mean, we gave away enough freaking throws. What about, oh, we got to give a special shout out to Anthony Mackie, Captain America, who showed us the ropes. Yes. X King and Anthony Mackie.

He was a king a couple of years ago. He's also a New Orleans native, so he had some insight into the parade. He was a very cool dude. He told me to pace myself. I did not. Super sore. He's a wise man.

Super cool guy. What a great guy. I do wish he was like, do you have a back brace? Like your weightlifting belt for the bean tossing? I did. I bought a massaging heated back brace that I've been wearing the last two days. You got to get those kettlebells out there.

Hyper-Rice brought to you by Hyper-Rice. Oh, Hyper-Rice. You say Hyper-Rice? Yeah. Yeah, get it, bro. Yeah, I did. Sponsor. Yeah, I got a lot of Hyper-Rice going on.

I'm fucking with that shit because of pickleball, dawg. Hyper-Rice, send us some shit, Hyper-Rice. Please, Hyper-Rice. I want those leg things. I got that. Dude, I got that. Oh, I got them. The Norma Tex.

Yeah. You have them? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Both you guys do? Oh, yeah. Pickleball fucks my shit up. And tell me, before we really cut out, tell me how good, how worth it.

So I've had them for years and years and years and years now. Probably the last eight, seven or eight years. And they are amazing. You slip your legs into them. They're like sleeves. And then they constrict and certain parts. And you can pick these parts. And then they release at certain times of your legs.

So it feels like there's no, if you set it to the highest, it feels like all the blood is being. It rings the blood out of your legs and then releases and lets it rush in, right? Yeah. And then it releases it and it rushes back. And your legs feel so rejuvenated. It feels, if it sounds insane, it feels insane. First time, first squeeze is scary as fuck.

I'm going to come. It's scary because you're like, I don't know if I can handle this. I might, I might need to bail. But if you just knuckle down, power through, it feels orgasmic. Right. Right. And it is scary. That first time I almost ripped the fucking things off, dude.

I was so scared. This is strangling my shit. Brought to you by Hyperize. And that's another episode of Norma 10. This is important. This is important. I got a remix. I just want to party.

You're not going to go out with the New Orleans music? Oh, wait, what the hell? Wait, go out with, hit us with New Orleans music, Blake. Oh, okay. Yeah, very good. Okay. All right. Wait, okay.

Why does it sound New Orleans music? Get to it. Get to it. Is this the David Lee Roth one? Yeah. Oh, is that why it sounds weird? So much better. It's so much better.

All right. Wait. I wish they all could be New Orleans. Get out of here. Get out of here. Get out of here. Get out of here. Get out of here.

Get out of here. Bulls. And we're out of here. Peek. Hi, I'm David Eagleman. I have a new podcast called Inner Cosmos on iHeart. I'm going to explore the relationship between our brains and our experiences by tackling unusual questions.

This child was laying on the side of the road. The person said, I murdered your daughter. The killer believed that he may have been seen. I will admit the others when you catch me if you can.
