And, oh, isn't that a nice thing to say? This doesn't have to be perfect. I got to remember that. What it is, what it ain't.

Is the baby need a spank. That used to be a little limerick and a limerick is basically a little Irish poem or something little Irish. It's basically the Irish you can't really, a lot of time you can't even understand them. So people were so happy when they finally heard something out of the Irish that they could understood they gave it a dang name, limerick. And anyway, that's a Irish limerick. What it is, what it ain't.

Does the baby need a spank. Have me a couple of Advil right now. With that liquid death, I don't know if you've ever had Advil or not, but I have them. You know, I had Advil to everything I do, man. Hell, I wish I made a damn suppository. You know, when I was young, there was a thing called Vajipan this, and I hate to get crude and be a naughty boy out here early. But when I was young, they had a thing called Vajipan, and that was traveling through the

South right around the time that, you know, what was it called, jinkum. And jinkum was an old deal where they would put, you know, man. This is, sorry, it's a little profane, but they put animal fessies and stuff like that booty, you know, animal, you know, booty work into a jug and they would let it roast in the sun and they would put a balloon on the top of the bottle and human fessies as well in urine or urine, they call it up in Michigan, up in the UP, but they would put that in a jug like a two liter bottle, get you a Seven Up D or a, you know, diet Dr. Pepper Big Daddy, you know, one of them two liters.

And they would, you put a balloon on top and they would let the waste in there fester and the gas from it put it in the yard, somebody's yard could be your yard. It was embarrassing to put it in your yard, so people put it in somebody's yard, you know, maybe an old person who's not going to see it. A lot of time you do that kind of shit, you know, if you got something messed up, you put it in an old person's yard for a little while, let people think they're doing it, you know, or something, but and the sun would hit it, it would fill the balloon with gas and that gas was made out of a fester and urine and fessies and then you would take

that gas, you know, and you would huff it and people would hit that jinkum, it was called. What was it? Nickname, let me see nicknames for jinkum. Let me see right here. Jinkum, okay, jinkum, a highly hallucinogenic drug which results from huffing the fumes. Woo, they get naughty out here on the interwebs, baby, a highly hallucinogenic, that means top of the line, we're talking big daddy, we're talking really if you, this is like them setting your dick on a frog's back, you know, for an hour kind of thing, highly

hallucinogenic drug which results from huffing the fumes of your own fermented feckle matter. Users claim, users claim, it gives an incredible rush. That's what they call it right there, jinkum right there. And here's an alternate title getting a bottle and taping a balloon to the top and letting your piece and turd ferment, man, we getting naughty out here. Then removing the, damn this shit, man, this stuff, here's an alternate definition, getting a, sorry man, getting a bottle and taping a balloon to the top, letting your pee, pee, and turd ferment for a few days, and I'm sorry, he's getting a little graphing, for a few

days, weeks even, then removing the balloon and inhaling that gas, maybe getting that, getting that huff, maybe getting that puff puff, you know, and they say it creates an awesome high, it's an African drug. In Africa, they could not afford drugs, it says, so they invented jinkum, whoo, whoo, and that's that shart in a bra, you know what I'm saying, you wait a couple of weeks, man, you wait a couple of weeks, that's that shart in a bra, heavy on the shart, anyway, what I'm saying is I had some Advil, and I have them a lot, and if they made a suppository, I would have one, you know, I put a damn thousand milligrams that hide it in that back

jaw early in the morning, man, so, if anybody's out there doing jinkum or doing whatever, man, I hope that you're not riding it too hard today, a hallucinogenic drug made out of the collected fumes of fermented fessies and urine, leave it in the sun for a few days, that Huff McGruff, that pooter juice is a nickname, and another nickname for some reason is Terrence and Phillip, so I don't know what that means, maybe that could have been some gay men that was doing, being wild outdoors, so I'm not sure, not sure about that, not sure what God wants on that. So, that's one of the episodes, let's get into it, come on.

I'm just sitting on your front porch wondering how could I be so far from my home, and my mind is somewhere else, but when I find it, I'll patch up where it's been grown, come on. Now, I'm just floating on the breeze, and I feel I'm falling like these leaves, I must be gonna stone, oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind, I found it, I can feel it in my bones, but it's gonna take a little time for me to set that parking brake and let myself unwind, shine that light on me, I'll sit and tell you my story, shine that light on me, and I will find a song, I will sing it just for you.

And now you go, and that's shine by Bishop Gunn, and that's that ordinary connection piece right there for us, that's that mild, tight rope between souls, people have heard it before they hear it again, and that is familiarity. You know, I like, I like, I like familiarity, familiarity. It sounds familiarity, it sounds like a drug for a baby. You know, this baby, he, honestly, man, we caught him smoking, you know, we caught him looking at other baby's tits, you know, we caught, so we had to put him on a couple doses of familiarity, and he's hopefully he'll be better, we don't know, you know, his brother

ended up in jail, so who knows, but familiarity, I like familiarity, I like being in places that make me feel comfortable, I like, you know, sometimes I remember when I was young, I would get in the Christmas boxes, you know, and if somebody got a gift, second they got it out, I'd be in that bastard, somebody got a little toaster, you know, somebody got a little toaster, I'd be in that bitch, you know, somebody got a little capital grayskull or something set, toy box thing, I'd be, you'd see me in there, like a cat, and I like that, I just like the, being in a tight little closed space kind of, I'm that womb hunter, you know, I'm always looking to skirt back, I'm always looking for an umbilical cord just

hanging anywhere, I climb right back up that bed, I don't care who's running womb, baby, I don't care how far Zan, I gotta climb baby, oh, I will swing into that bastard, I like that attic, I always like that closed space, I like that tightness, that little domicile, they call it, I like being in a little capsule, hell I'll probably enjoy being dead honestly, you know, I'll miss you guys, but I will be, I will enjoy it because I want in that coffin, baby, I'm getting that bitch tight, sometimes you see people with these big bodies, you know, you're something you'll see a brother or something be buried with that big, in that big body, not me, I want that coffin, I want that thing to be damn a foot and a half wide,

maybe 18 inches, you know, I want that thing right at six feet, man, and honestly, man, they could bend my legs a little, make that bitch at five and a half feet, I want that tight, I want that easy, I want something that could, you know, you could mistake it for a damn uh, bunch of roses on, you know, delivered by somebody by a company, like damn, is that somebody bury in a box of roses, that's what I want that, because I like the tightness, I like that close knit, I like that, and I don't wear too big of a shirt, I don't wear too much of a large shirt either, you'll see me in, you know, in a semi large, really, which I wish there was a size that they made, I like that lean large, you know, man, there

was something I was going to tell you, just forgot about, oh, so for a while, man, I was doing drugs and I used to live with this man named Kenny, and they call him two cat Kenny, because he had, he had two cats and uh, and I would do drugs and shit, and one night he came and knocked on my door, I, I was uh, living in his apartment, he lived there and I moved in, and so I had my own room and I was excited, man, I had me a little couch in there, you know, it was a big room, it was kind of, I could be in my bed or be in my couch, bitch, I'm all over, you know, I had that kind of atmosphere in there, got me a little ice chest in the corner, I put a couple little, little beverages in that

bastard, you know, I put me a couple waters, couple fucking, uh, maybe uh, you know, maybe diet sprites in that bitch, you know, live it up, I was doing it all, and anyway, so sometimes one night Kenny come in my room, the first time he did it, he came in, he said, hey, come out here, and he would get high out there in the living room, I think, or he was on something, and if you've ever had a roommate that's on something, when they knock on your door and your room door, you know it's, anything could be behind, anything could be going on, they could need help, they could be bleeding, they could be missing, you know, some, with some roommates that they're on some drugs, they'll knock and go missing

by the time you get to the damn door, like, damn, this some real, this some real shit right here, this person, they really, they just can't even find themselves right now, so anyway, I came to the door and Kenny been out in the living room, he stacked a bunch of boxes out there, big pyramid of boxes, you know, that Egyptian shape, and he, he put that thing, we had a high ceiling living room, high ceiling living room, and he'd invited this lady over from next door, this lady Martha was her name, and she always got stoned, and she, I mean, she was, she wasn't shit, honestly, and I hate to say that, and I hope she's better now, but at the time she was just, she wasn't really shit, man, you know, she wasn't, she

just wasn't, man, I just, I shouldn't say that, she was shit, she was, she was awesome, she was awesome, but I didn't see that side of her, and anyway, so him and Martha's out there huffing, doing something, I don't think he's huffing paint, doing a keyboard cleaner, some kind of shit, but they got the cats on these boxes, on these pyramid of boxes, and Kenny's like, man, you'll never guess what's in the top, man, and he had his little cat up there, Buckeye was his name, you know, because he had a real, he had like kind of, kind of gold hair around his asshole, honestly, butthole, B-hole, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, B-hole, okay, so any moms are driving their kids to school right now by the B-hole, and

they call him Buckeye, and he had no tail on him, I mean, his tail had been trimmed all the way straight to the spine, so you saw just, you was getting full hole on that cat, you know, you was getting ultimate hole, you know, that's U-hole, because there's B-hole and then there's U-hole, bro, and that's when you just, God, you just hope for better, you know, but anyway, so what happened was Buckeye gotten somehow into the box on the top of the damn thing, bro, top of that pyramid, and they're out there on that keyboard cleaner, you know, and they'd been huffing that and doing a little, you know, doing a little bit of weed or uppers or downers or something, side splitters, I don't know what they were

on, but they were bent out, and I knew when I opened that door, he's sitting there, Martha's there, and they're just fucking watching that cat up there in that big box in that pyramid, man, and I knew I had to get out of there. That's what I knew at that time, baby, amen.

So a lot of great places, man, I'm excited to do that, and that tour will figure out the name, but that'll be coming to you, and so be ready for it. What else is happening, man? What's going on in your lives? I want to know some of that, and we'll figure some of that out.

I'm trying to think of what's going on with me. Oh, I want to update you on the ketamine therapy. So if people know or don't know, some of you know I got the ketamine therapy going, and I have two more treatments, and man, you know, and I've been going to my regular meetings and stuff like that, my regular recovery stuff at the same time, but man, I'd never done anything like this. So you're in there, and they give you an IV, and they put the drugs in the end of the thing, and you have the therapist there, and at first you're in the room, and then, dude, it got

... it got dicey, man. I mean, I'm talking Las Vegas dicey. I'm not talking damn Reno. I'm talking Vegas dicey. You know, I'm talking fucking out back at the Venetian, a couple brothers gambling, you know what I'm saying? I'm saying it got dicey. I'm talking about the cook staff out there gambling in the alley.

It's just like, it's almost like somebody takes part of you, your soul, I'll say, and you ever been to a dry cleaners, and you go in there, and you look, and you see they got all the equipment, and you're like, oh man, they got a lot of equipment in here, and they got the thing, when they press the button, it kind of like, and other people's shirts go by, and you're like, damn, that guy's got nice shit, man, and sometimes you bet, if it's a smallest town, you'll see somebody, something go by, and you're like, oh man, I bet that's Ms. Hermes, you know? Oh, that looks like Randall's shit, you know?

It looked like Randall's little boots, you know? Oh, damn, that's his stuff, too. You're about to come out the closet, you know what I'm saying? You start to get that vibe when things go by, but it's like somebody took your spirit and put it onto that, and pressed the maximum button they could, and let that bitch go. Like I remember at one point yelling out that I was a cryptocurrency. So that's how you start to feel, man. Please get, you go into the matrix, you go into the, I mean, you're on the Mayflower in

the matrix, eating flour, performing tricks, you're doing, there's a lot, a lot of levels going on, man. It feels like Elon Musk just climbs straight in your ass and comes out of your brain, like it's a lot of, it's like this part, and I know this sounds crazy, it's not like being a high on weed, it's not like being high on cocaine, it's, it wasn't like the DMT. It was a little bit like the DMT, but not visual, it's like this. I remember at one point, all the furniture in the world moved across the globe into, into one little half-bathroom on the edge of Zaire.

That's what I just remember that happened in a matter of a couple seconds. It's like you're on a, and then at certain moments, it's like you're on a, it's like you're in a wheelchair, but also you're like on a rot, rot, what's it called, rot solar, roller coaster. You're on a roller coaster, but you're also in a wheelchair at the same time, like it's, I mean, you're, I don't know, man, but some interesting stuff happened. I got to see myself as a child, I got to, I got to, I got to this, you kind of, I felt like I kind of had just, had to start growing up.

If that makes any sense, I felt like it kind of made me realize some things that has had to grow up a little shit. You know, I got to at least hit 10 emotionally or 11, so, so anyway, I think it's really interesting though, like I'm monitoring how I feel, if my mood feels better, I'm hoping to be able to quit antidepressants with the help of a doctor. And so that's some of the things that I'm hopeful for in it, but I wanted to update you guys on it. For me, it's a lot about just feeling okay, like am I okay, am I okay?

So that's a kind of a lot of thing that I talk about when I'm in there under the influence. Because there's someone which I'm like, is this really helpful or am I just doing drugs in a strip mall somewhere? You know what I'm saying? Like am I just doing drugs by this damn five guys? You know what I'm saying? What's really going on here? And that's the crazy part.

The place I go, you're wall to wall with a damn five guys, dude. And four of those guys smell like fucking burgers, bro. I'll tell you that. I don't know who the fifth dude is, but four of those MFers smell like burgers, bro. So it's hard because you're getting, you know, they got you on the grill, you know, mentally on the spiritual grill in there. And at the same time, if you almost put your ear up, I swear to God, I could hear somebody pushing off a double in there and God, that really will, that'll make you want to get well

right there when there's a burger in the next room. It's kind of crazy the power of that. So I want to also, dude, I want to say this upstairs. I want to say this a lot, dude. That's one thing I wish about my house now. I have a house and it's crazy to say that I'm almost getting ashamed to say it in a sad way. I know that's weird to say, but sometimes I feel like I'm embarrassed, I guess to like

have stuff. I don't know. I think I just relate so much with not having anything and with being a little about poor, but with that struggle, with that like chip on my shoulder that it's scary to now be in a place where I feel like, you know, I have a dang living room, you know, where you can live, you know, like, like if my house burns down, like they're going to call me like that's crazy. Like I'm used to kind of being in the place where if the place burns down, you call somebody

else who's going to be pissed off. They're going to be pissed unless they burned it, which happened us once over there off a lee road. Dude, the dude burned the damn place down to get money. And I mean, let us know by letter. First of all, idiot. And second of all, call us, bro. If you're going to burn the place down, call us, hey, feel that heat.

So don't let us know by damn letter where you can get busted and where we don't even get to let it all after, you know. So just that kind of shit, man. But anyway, so anyway, what I was talking about, uh, yeah, that said, oh, my mom came to visit. I'll tell you about that in just a second. I want to let you know first, though, we got to we got to do the ads and I got to let you know about the podcast and things that are going on.

That's what I do to make that, you know, put in a little, you know, put some water in a spoon. You know, I'm joking. That's a joke. Let's see. I don't want anybody cooking themselves down.

What else, man? Let's hear. We got a call that came in right here. We got some single moms, you know, it's mother's day week. I spent some time. My mother was in town and, uh, and, you know, we had a nice time, man. We had a nice time. I'll get to that in just a second.

First, I want to get to this fella's call. Here we go. Um, big fan of shows calling in rather not get my name for personal reasons, but, uh, okay. And that's probably a child support. I'm guessing. Yes, sir. Go ahead.

I've been going through a big transitional time in my life with, uh, therapy and stuff like that. And just listening to a new episode and you talked about doing the ketamine therapy and actually just finished my six sessions of, uh, doing that, and it was just really nice to hear that someone I look up to, you know, taking the same route of trying to get some self-help like I am, because I kind of felt alone in it, like no one else really understood what it was or anything. And I kind of took a dive and went for it and, uh, I gotta tell you, I was cracking

up when you were talking about the, the crying in the first session because when I did my first session, it felt like there was a fucking tear tractor beam in front of my face pulling everything I had out of me and, Yep. That tear tractor, baby. And somebody's using a skill saw nearby if you can hear a sound onward. It felt good. But like you said, it's real emotionally draining.

But, um, yeah, I just wanted to say, stick with him and cause I finished mine and it's helped me be much more emotionally expressive to people around me and really strengthen my relationships with people that, uh, I have in my life and also, uh, thanks for doing the show. He's got me through some hard times. I think that, you know, you, you put a smile on people's face a lot more than you might think you do and help me get through some rough times just for me talking and shooting the shit on your show.

So thanks again, man. Gang gang. Gang brother. Thank you. I appreciate, you know, the, you know, the sweetie to say that, man. Thank you. Thank you for calling. Uh, yeah.

Yeah. You know, I was scared to do it. I was scared to talk about it, honestly, um, you know, but also I would like you, you know, I just, I want to be proactive in trying to feel good. You know, um, and yeah, that for, and I'll try anything, you know, here's the thing. I've tried like street drugs, so to try something that's, you know, that at least even if it's a street drug, it's being used in a positive way or a day, you know, a way that's like directionally decent than that.

Shoot. I'm, you know, I'm a sucker for that, I guess then, uh, but yeah, thanks, man. I'm, I'm glad I did it. You know, I'm glad I'm doing it and, uh, and it's interesting. It's really interesting. I'm curious to see kind of some of the effects, some of the long-term effects. If there are any, um, I'm just curious and, and you know, I wonder if years from now there will be cures for some of this stuff.

Sometimes I still think it's just a spiritual malady that I have and that it has nothing to do with anything else, but you know, I want to exhaust every option. So that's what I'm going to do, um, or I don't know if that's what I'm going to do, but we'll see what I'm going to do. I don't even know what I'm going to do. Damn. But thanks, man. I'm glad you checked it out, man.

And thanks for the good words. You know, I had an epiphany just, or just an idea. I don't know what it was. I mean, epiphany is just a damn idea in a skirt. You know that, bro. It's just an idea that showed up to happy hour with lipstick and a condiment at sock. I mean, when I'm saying epiphany, you know, epiphany, she likes to get it right. You feel me?

So, um, what else, man? Let's take another call. It came in here. Here we go. What's up Theo? It's Aaron from Oklahoma city. What's up Aaron? Oklahoma city.

Man, y'all did that bombing, bro. No, and what else, man? Um, oh yeah, Kevin Durant also, baby. Let's go gang. I know you say you used to be a busboy. I'm a busboy as well. I was wondering if you had any crazy busboy stories like weird conversations you overheard or something.

Damn. Was your daddy a typewriter dog? Cause you definitely, you know, you got that kind of that stenographer's vibe, man. Any good busboy stories? Well, Alfonso Riviero's came in one time when I was busboying. Kevin Costner came in and he ate three muffins. I remember that he liked them. Yeah, he did like them.

What else happened? Oh, dude, so my boy Dennis, we used to do drugs and the first time we ever did some cocaine, he took me over to somebody's house and the guy only had one eye. You know, he had that buckshot baby or whatever. You know, he had that, uh, you know, he honestly just kind of his face was kind of fucking brave. It's like, Hey, I'll do it with one. You know, check ball.

You know what I'm saying, bro? And he just checked that other one at the door baby. He don't, his face said, look, found we go on one, we go on one rock. So I respect that man. The guy, I don't remember his name, but I walk in and the guy's coming up from doing a line of cocaine and there's a thing of fresh oranges on the table and, um, and he looked up at me and only had one eye and I thought I was already fucked up. I thought that the guy had kind of sucked so hard with his nostril, he took one of his

eyes back into his head. You know, and at that point I'm thinking he's just seeing snot, you know, seeing the inside of his capabilities, but, um, but what else, man? Yeah. I mean, some other stuff happened. I remember I found an Abbey road tape and it's a cassette tape and some people don't believe in them, but I believed in them and I found that on the side of the road and I used that for a while.

I listened to that album. That was my introduction to the Beatles really. And I would time it just perfectly when I left work, when I put on that one song, uh, what is this, uh, imagine, I don't know what it is, but it was a good song, man. I would time it just perfectly when I left work. I had me a little derail or a little Winston and I would cut that bitch on with a lighter and I'd fire up that 1984 Ford escort, let's go upstairs. And I would drive that thing right to home and I would get to my mom's place.

This is out in Tucson, Arizona out there. And it was a lot of like, a lot of Mexican scare, a lot of scare. There's a lot of just Mexicans fighting at school. They called it school, but it was basically Mexican people fighting. And then there was some, but like occasionally some of them would read a book report, but um, and, uh, and I would just get to my mother's house and that last touch of that, that last huff of that derail baby. And I really loved that I missed that time.

So, but thank you for, uh, reminding me of that and good luck out there and okay see you man and, um, if anybody, uh, is in Oklahoma city and they see a bus boy, see if he's Aaron, that could be him. Um, we got a call that came in here. This fellow right here, beautiful fellow. Here we go. It could be beautiful. This is just audio.

Hey, what's going on Theo? This is Matt. I'm out here in Washington state. I just was curious. What's up Washington state out there to coma man and you guys, unfortunately Gonzaga went out and people don't know they're based out of Spokane. And I spent some time up and washed up in, uh, near snow qualmy out there and I had some girl, uh, met a girl out there I made love to out there one time.

She worked in, I don't want to say arts and crafts surplus, but yarn sales. I remember she had a little Subaru hatchback fully yarn multicolored yarn, maybe beautiful little lady. Let's hear more brother onward. Do you have any advice for me or maybe any listeners had some advice for me? Uh, I've been in the military for about five years now and I joined right out of high school. I'm about to get out coming up here in August. I'm just seeing this, uh, anybody had any advice, you know, it's pretty nerve wracking.

I didn't, I haven't known anything else my whole life. I've only been in the military. So working on getting jobs lined up house for me and my wife, what not like that. So if you or any of the listeners had any advice for me, I'd appreciate it. Uh, you know, gang game. Thanks Maddie. And yeah, you know, that's a great question. I've never been military, you know, and I used, there were some kids in our school that

was in ROTC and they were, you know, some of them honestly were inbreeding or doing inbreeding and they were, they used to run around after school with wooden guns and pretend people was attacking the damn philosophy center or whatever, you know, uh, you know, they'd be defending the library, you'd see six of them out there, you know, when I'm knocked up out there with a wooden gun and they're all defending the damn book drop off at the damn night drop off at the damn library. Just, you know, I respect them. I'm not saying I don't respect them, but they were the training bus was bleak.

You know, I remember that the training bus was bleak and, um, and what was I talking about, uh, oh, well, you know, that's a great question, man. And I think that is a good question to, to, to put out to people, you know, I'm sure we have a lot of listeners that are military and thank you very much for, for your service. You know, I'm sorry. A lot of these, these days, the media probably doesn't support you as much as you feel like it should, you know, military does so much to keep us safe. Um, do you know that in America, there's always like, we're only eight hours away from, uh,

we could be wheels up. You could have a, uh, uh, SEAL team six or, uh, um, you know, one of those airborne groups or, uh, you know, uh, or Army Ranger, this, I don't know exactly what I'm talking about. So I'm going to shut up, but there were always only eight hours away from having just full bore. And that's crazy. You know what I'm saying? It takes a family of four damn four days to plan a fucking to pack a van to go to Destin.

So when you're thinking about her pack of van to go to the damn lake of the Ozarks, which is in Missouri and I didn't know it for years. And also, did you know this? The, what is it called? It's in Pennsylvania. The Poconos is in Pennsylvania. Had no idea, man. For years.

Had no idea. I thought it was islands. I thought it was off of a Ruber somewhere, but the Poconos is in damn pencil,vania. So a lot of stuff being learned by everybody. But, um, but yeah, if you have suggestions, what's a good suggestion for somebody, if they're getting out of the military, what do you think, you know, what do you think somebody's getting out of the military? If you've been in the military, hit the hotline, nine, eight, five, six, six, four, nine, five,

zero, three. We'll put together some, some ideas for you, Matt, and just kind of survey the crowd there. What else? Yeah, man, that's pretty fascinating that we have that a capability to keep us safe. You know, we've gotten so used to being safe here in America in a way it's almost like the people you have to be safe from now is are in America. That's the crazy part. Like it's companies and it's, you know, uh, big tech and just things that can limit your

ability to be free. It's wild, man, just, it's just interesting to see once you don't have the enemies outside or their, you know, because our previous generations had that they were fighting for territory and for our borders and to secure a place. And then once you don't have, once that scare isn't there for a while, damn, the enemies is in the damn Wi-Fi, man. It's crazy. It's just, I mean, also, I don't know what I'm talking about.

Let's hear something here, man. We got some other nice calls that came in, some really good ones in, uh, and let's ask, let's, let's, let's hit this one right here. What's up, Dio? It's Luke. Um, out of Birmingham, Alabama, Luke, out of B ham, baby. And they call it B ham. And I went to a concert over there near Pelham, Alabama one time and I was a child, man.

I was a damn middle-aged child and we was bent out on X to see or something. I don't know. I ate something out of some, somebody's hand. I remember fucking eating it right out of their hand. I didn't know what it was and, and I ate it and I was drugged out and I smoked me half a pack of, uh, new ports in a row outside of a daze in, which was a semi-decent and it was fine during the day that, you know what they advertise well during the day is fine.

Dude, come about six, 15 PM, bro. It's for days. Only dog. It got real dicey out there. I'm upstairs. Dude, I was upstairs, baby. I wasn't out on the streets around there. Shout out days in, baby.

D.I. Gang. Sorry. Let's hear more. Luke, this is about you, man. And so I, I just got, got my first number from a girl. Let's go. That's what I'm talking about.

That's what we do here. Let's get some wins on the board, baby. Let's go, Luke. Or the first time I asked a girl, uh, for her number and sorry I interrupted you. Let's go back. The girl, uh, for her number and sorry, I just got, got my first number from a girl and the first time I asked a girl, uh, for her number and you know, I was just going to get a smoothie and my lunch break because that's what I do when I get stressed out.

Oh yeah. That's how I ended up on DMT over there in Maui. Homeward. This isn't the part, but anyways, um, I don't do, I mean, she was fucking beautiful, man. Oh, and I'm going to stop you right there. Looky, looky, looky, looky here, pa pa, numeros, man, there's nothing, there's nothing when you that first moment. I don't know if it's like this for women and a lady, please, if you're a lady, bro, if

you're running that little wallet, bro, and you're doing that for God and all of that and you can have children hit the hotline, nine, eight, five, six, six, four, nine, five, zero, three. And let me know if it's like this for women because a guy, when you see the girl, when you see that little dime roll out the bank, baby, or roll out the star, but you know, or the damn DW shoes or whatever, the little, you know, the long johns, uh, not the pants shop, the long johns fish store, long johns, uh, silver, is he Jewish as long johns, silver Jewish, I don't know, man, but, um, but yeah, when you see it, whenever it went out of that

first Glenn, it's just like, damn, damn, bro. It's like that kind of that stack, you know, that's crisp sting that come from Listerine. It's kind of like that, bro, but, but in your, in your, like in your damn vulva or whatever, like, in your, like, in your, like, uh, you know, when you, because your penis starts at your brain, you know that, right? Your penis, it's, that's where it starts. It's all activated out of the brain. So anyway, yeah, man, there's nothing like that first moment, man, there's nothing like

that first moment, bro. Let's hear more and, um, bruh, she, uh, she texted me and I don't know, where do I go from here? I just got out of a relationship, a bad relationship, bad breakup, uh, it's been a year now, I'm just getting over her. I don't know where to start, man. I know you got your girl troubles too. And even though you a sexy looking motherfucker, um, just give me some advice on what I should

do with that number or how I should, uh, go about it. I probably already fucked it up. Yeah, that's true. I'm sure you have, if you like any dude, I know they texted too early, bro, onward. But, uh, um, yeah, man, uh, I went to my first AA meeting last night too. Um, I was drunk, but I looked out and that's, uh, acceptable AA meeting. So I turned my eyes around because it felt my heart, but it went good. Um, all right, I'll let you go, brother gang, gang.

Gang, baby. Man, I'm proud of you for just being brave, man, for just doing shit, you know, for just staying busy, man. You're staying busy. You're staying in the flow of life. You know, what I start to realize, and this has happened for me recently, I start to isolate. Oh, I need to let, you know, I need to keep myself from this and keep myself from this. And how can I stay out of this deal, this situation?

You know, I don't want to be, I don't know. I don't, and the more I do that, the more I isolate and the more I get alone and feeling alone. And for me, that's a lot of my alcoholism, a lot of whatever the ism is inside of me, whatever the thing, whatever that dirty baby that crawls inside of me, that's what is bait. A lot of it is that it's just that thing that wants to keep me separate. Keep me alone. Keep me in that womb, you know, wherever that womb is.

You know, I want to be on that, I want to be that cat in the top box while everybody else is getting dosed out and fucking Martha. I want to be that cat in the top box. But that doesn't suit me though, because then I'm alone, it just, it's a trickery. And it's a trickery, man, and that's devil, that's devil working. And that is devil working, brother, praise God, man. But I'm happy for you, man. Let's get some wins on the board.

If you had a win, hit us up the hotline, 985-664-9503, let me know your wins. We need some wins in the books. Yeah, let me know your wins. If you try something, something to happen, you know, and congrats on the meeting, man. It doesn't matter. There's no right way to do anything. There's just your life. There's just your path.

And yeah, it's, look, it's neat to check out. You know, I've been in them before. I don't know if I've ever been in one drunk before, but I've been in one the night after drinking many of times, man, and it doesn't matter, man. But good for you just staying in the floor of things as much as I don't want to sometimes. Everything inside of me says, no, I don't go. Say you can't. But then when I go, then I'm in, I realize that I'm okay.

And that's one thing. There's a whole, a lot of society right now. There's this thing of this separation. How can we close everybody off and just make them, it feels like anyway. And this is just to me. I'm not saying this to everybody, but it feels like there's a lot of society trying to just close us off to be alone, which then creates suffering. So then we can buy something to make us feel better.

And then they want you in that little rose box coffin, baby, five feet by 18 inches, daddy. They want you playing small ball. And Luki is out here, smoothied out boo boo, I'm upstairs. Luki's out here, smoothied up because he's dealing with some dumb ass fucking word stress. And he's logging digits at the park, baby. That's what we do. Play ball. I don't care if you're in the game.

I don't care if he's the third Bay coach. I don't care if he's a striker. Get in the field. And there's that skill. So you hear that? And apparently when I get too fired up, that thing goes off. Thank you, Luke. Thank you for that call, man.

You know, my mom came in town, uh, you know, I was definitely excited. You know, I saved some things at home for us to do together, like just to go shopping for the small things and not even saved them.

I think I just hadn't done them. So you know, it was nice to spend time together. I thought about having her as a guest on the podcast, but we don't really have it set up right now to do two people. So we're going to have to wait, uh, maybe another time, um, you know, there were, sometimes it was a little stressful and we kind of just went to our mutual corners and, uh, and that was okay. You know, um, you know, it was kind of nice in a lot of ways, man.

It was nice. Just like, I think I kind of come to some realizations that like, you know, my relationship with my mother doesn't, it doesn't have to be some perfect thing. You know, I think always in my head that it needs to land in some perfect place, or it all has to be figured out, um, and it's okay. It can kind of be, that's that skill saw. It can kind of be, um, you know, it can just be kind of fluid and, uh, and so there was nice, there was some niceness about that, you know, there was some niceness just to

have sometimes also, I was like, you know, I just need some space to myself and I'm an adult now. So I could do that. I could take that space where when I was a child, I didn't really have that ability if I needed, you know, if, uh, you know, you're, you're kind of in your parents, you know, you're in their domain. So, um, so it was good, man. We went and picked out some different stuff and got some different thing.

Got some soap, got a shower caddy in my shower because everything was just sitting on the bottom, you know, when you're kind of, you know, just two stepping around the toothpaste and all of that and just trying to kick stuff away from the drain. If you've ever done that in your shower, you're just like, don't set anything up. So it's just in the bottom. You just keep kicking it away from the drain, but, um, got a shower caddy, forgot silver wear. So still doing, uh, you know, still washing the plastics off in the sink, but, um, but

it was nice. We didn't have really any, like any heart to heart combos or anything like that. You know, and that's okay. Um, I'm glad that we both made the time to spend time together though. You know, we both made a commitment to, to spend time together and, um, and it was nice man. We went out one night, mom had a Margarita, her second one she's ever had. So that was cool.

I had to put, I had to ask her some, you know, ask her some questions about that, about her first marriage after that. And so, you know, I got into that a little, but, um, yeah, we had a nice time, man. I know that she loves me and, uh, you know, and I'm hard to love sometimes, you know, I'm particular as an adult. And I think they were, those were safety mechanisms that I used as a kid. Uh, and now they sometimes keep me too safe in some ways, you know, they can sometimes keep me so safe that, uh, I'm separate.

Um, but that's okay. I'm not complaining. People sometimes are like, man, you're ever, you're whining. I'm not having self pity. I'm just, sometimes I like to share what I'm thinking or feeling and it's not complaining. It's not, I'm just sharing it. You know, I just, I just, I'm just sharing it. And so that's okay.

You know, it's mother's day coming up and, um, we were going to get to that in just a second and, uh, and first I'm going to get into maybe one or two more. Oh, this happened, bro. A couple of Italians threw a flat screen off a damn, uh, thing. Yo, we're on the 47th floor here. Oh my God. And none of you can see this literally. It's two, two white dudes, one of them in a straight up G to Jersey.

Okay. So, uh, Italian could be Jewish this kid, but it looks Italian, um, but definitely has a television. Obviously it's either, it's probably from the hotel, 42nd floor. These two dudes are yacked up baby on some of that Italian yak baby, that giddy up, bro. That fricking brain father dog, you know what I'm talking about, baby. That fricking genealogy dust, baby. You snort your way back to your grandfather on some of that strong shit, baby gang.

Um, and they just threw a television off the 42nd floor in what looks like, I'm going to say this is Las Vegas. I love how as soon as it hits, the guy runs into the hotel room, like at that, like at that point. Oh man, that shit is good, dude. Oh, that was good. So right there, that's full Italian, man. And that is, uh, I mean, it says, you know what makes me mad, the quality of product

and that's product quality. They call it, but that makes me mad, man. A long time ago, dude, television, you threw that bitch off. You needed two people to throw that bitch. Okay. And when that thing hit, dude, I mean Timothy McVeigh, probably, you know, his spine got a little straighter, you know, that thing really, those things, it was glass on the front and it was a damn, there was a bulb in there and there was some real weight and

girth to it. That thing, that thing would get to the 42 floors in five seconds. This thing took five, eight seconds. That should, that thing landed like a damn dove down there. That thing landed like a dove, baby, damn. So we need to just heavy these bitches up, man, but that's a ballsy move, man. Throwing that thing, 42 floor, throwing a TV off, man. Praise God.

That's Italian. Daddy, let's go. Got another video right here of a Giants fan. They're reacting to the eagle knee, stealing their player and the guy punch two holes into the wall. The guy couldn't handle the pick. The draft pick, the Giants, the Eagles stole the draft pick and the guy put two holes into the wall.

Here's what I'm saying, ladies, you want the holes in the wall? You want the holes in the wife? Sometimes you got, the exertion has to get out. So I think that this man did the right thing. I think his wife also did the right thing by telling him to get the fuck out. If suddenly he thinks he's a dang general contractor, when he's hopped up on fucking a Heineken summer rail at 4 p.m. in the afternoon to be a damn Giants fan, come on, bro. Y'all got Evan Ingram.

Y'all should have him throw and catch the ball, dude. But look, man, that's the kind of stuff that's going on out there in God's world, man. And so that's what happens when you watch the NFL draft, dude, go to flag football, watch flag football. It's better, some of its co-ed, there's hot chicks, bro. Live it up. Amen, man. Man, we've had a good time so far.

I've had a good time anyway. Thank you guys for being here. And speaking of sports, man, this one last sport I want to check in on. And this is an underwater sport right here. I don't know if you've seen this, if you can see the video on YouTube is that the man is men underwater. And I'm not going to say this is a, you know, this is definitely a all-male type of sport. This is definitely a lot of men that's homeowners, if you know what I'm talking about, brother.

You know what I'm saying? Full men on men. They're just tickling each other underwater, trying to get a little, look like a damn little sausage from each other, like a little sausage bun, one of those eight answers. And then they, oh, that big boy is pushing him, oh, oh, God, he threw that, oh, and who is that? That means wearing a thong. But this is definitely, this is the kind of shit that would go on at a rest area if they

had pools. So you could just say really, obviously, that's what this is, and I hope these men are all safe. And this could be a prison thing also, because it seems real touch and go. All right, let's get on. Thank you for whoever sent that in. Thank you for everybody who made calls into the episode today. All right, with Mother's Day coming up.

You know, it's an exciting time for us to do something for some single moms out there. And I want to thank everybody who's a part of our Patreon and just a listener of this podcast. You know, I always feel everybody's support in this realm. And so, you know, it's nice for me to just be the liaison of us offering a little bit of assistance here and there, and just a moment to recognize. So we got a submission that came in today. Let me play this video right here.

Yo, what's up, Theo? It's Chico from Berkeley, California out here doing some urban farming, a little chicken back there. Dang, Chico got that frickin' yard bird, son. That frickin' backyard dinner section, daddy, let's go. Thank you for calling Chico. Let's hear more. Back there.

I wanted to nominate my homegirl, Elisha, for the single mothers thing. She had a son while she was in high school, a young mom, and put herself through community college, put herself through her bachelor's program in nursing, all while holding a job. Now she's actually in a master's program for nursing at the University of San Francisco, paying for that herself and all, you know, she's got a new job while she's doing that. So, Rose went working hard, taking care of her son. She cooks meals for him every night. They always sit down for dinner and, you know, takes him out on bike rides every day.

She's working really hard and she deserves everything she can get. Really proud of her. Love to see what she's doing. I appreciate what you guys do over there this past weekend. Peace. Dang, baby. Thanks, man. That's a nice message, man.

That's nice of you that you recognize those things and see those things and just care to share them with us, man. So thank you for doing that, Chico. Yeah, let's hit up this young lady right here, Elisha. Elisha. Now that's a name right there, Elisha. I'm like a piece of ice. Hey, Elisha, can you hear me?

Yes. Are you mad at me? I don't know what this is. Well, I'm not a bad guy. I mean, I'm not a great guy. Semi-decent, I think. But I just work on a podcast. So that's what I do.

And I was raised by a single mom and so sometimes on our podcast we have listeners that call in and nominate single moms for us to do something nice for. So you have a friend named Chico is his name. And he seemed like a real decent man. And anyway, he called in and nominated you. And so we just wanted to send you $750 to do something nice for your kiddo one day. So that's really all this is, really. Is this real?

Yeah. Unfortunately, yeah. You know, we're bothering you today and I am sorry about that. But yeah, he really did. He just called and left a message and just said, hey, I know this girl and she is a hard worker and she spends a lot of nice time with her son and makes him meals and they go on bike rides and, you know, I just really admire her. And so I wanted to nominate her.

And so now we're just doing our part of the responsibility is just to call you and let you know. So you know Chico or not? I do. And tell me about him, be honest about it. Oh my gosh, this is so awkward. Yeah. Life's kind of awkward, you know?

He's a cool guy. Is he? He's sweet. He's a good dad too. Oh, nice. Yeah. I don't think he's doing it to be weird or anything. I think he just, I think he just thought it would be a nice gesture, you know?

Yeah. What's your kiddo like? He's a little son, huh? Yeah, I have a son. What's he like? He is? Yeah. He's very polite.

That's nice. That's my favorite thing is when somebody says nice polite things, you know? Yeah. Is it fun raising him? Yeah. It's like I learn about myself while I'm raising him too and we pretty much have been growing together. That's pretty cool.

Yeah, I think I got to get me a child one of these days. I'm about ready to hatch something. You know what I'm saying? Sure. Okay. Well, that's it. So I'll just have, we have a producer from our podcast who will just reach out and then we'll just, you know, just send you just a little gift and then you can just be something

fun you can do. What, you know, summertime is kind of coming. Maybe you guys could go do something fun together if you want. Sounds good. Thank you. Okay. You're very welcome. And thank Chico.

And I hope you have a nice day. Thank you. You too. Okay. Bye-bye. Bye. And maybe people skeptical. You know, some people is skeptical and that's okay.

Maybe she's not skeptical. Fuck off. She don't know me. You know what I'm saying? If I saw some man called from a damn mortuary, obviously. We've seen this place and dressed in a damn waymatic shirt. What is it? You know, you know, and wearing these pants, then I would definitely be skeptical as well.

But that's okay. That's a good mom being skeptical. That's a good mom, you know, skeptical first. That's my motto, baby. You know that. So let's try. We got one more nomination that came in. Let's check that out right now.

Hi Theo, my name is Jeremy. I heard about what you're doing with the single mothers. Much respect to you. I think that's a beautiful thing. I was raised by a single mother myself and any chance we can to highlight single mothers and how strong they really are. I'm on board. I'd like to nominate Desiree.

I've known her since she was a young girl. I've watched her grown from a young woman to a grown woman to a mother. And watching her raise her children or her child after the loss of the father to the child. That's just a beautiful thing. And if I can do anything to help her, I would. Well thank you, brother. I appreciate you putting on our radar and let's see if we can't give her a buzz right now actually.

Hey Desiree. Hello. Where you at? You at school still? Huh? Where you at? Man, it's hot. It's hot everywhere.

It is, it is. What the kids doing? They just went back to school. I have to, I don't get off until two, I have like 15 minutes. You got 15 minutes? Yes. Oh, we only need a couple minutes, girl. You know what I'm saying?

That's the kind of guy I am, you know what I'm saying? So I work on a podcast, my name's Theo and I work on a podcast and we have a section of our podcast where our listeners will nominate single moms and we'll reach out to them and they'll just send in a video and a man named Jeremy sent in a video saying some really nice things about you and how proud he is to know you and that you're a single mother. And so we just wanted to reach out and offer you just a gift because I was raised by a single mom. I'm going to send you 750 bucks to go do something nice with the kiddo this summer.

What? Oh my God. So that's it. That's it. If you still got the kiddo, you still a single mom or not? Yeah. Yeah, you know, you can't live without them and you can't live with them. Yes, my son is seven and he's in first grade.

Oh, that's beautiful. Does he go to your school or no? Yeah. My school because it's convenient so we get off at the same time and we go home, do homework and spend time. Today he has a baseball game, so we're going to head to his baseball game after this. Oh, nice. What position is he playing yet?

He does pitcher and he loves first base and he's a catcher right now. Oh, yeah. That's something. Well, they got him in some good position. They used to put me out in the field out there eating grass with them kids. Right. Twirling around and stuff, they used to put me out there. One kid got lost out there.

I don't know where he's at. Yeah, it was a different time back then. So you're kidding. He's seven years old. Yeah. Seven years old. Yes. Oh, that's nice.

What does he like to do? So he likes to play baseball. He must be pretty active. Huh? Keep him active. He likes to play baseball, basketball and Oh, wow. That's something. And where do you teach at?

You're a teacher? Yeah, I'm a teacher. Listen, I'm in school. I'm a teacher. So I'm a full-time teacher and I do school part-time and then, you know, mother full-time and all types of hats. Dang, you got all the hats on, huh? Yes.

Well, well, Jeremy thinks the world of you and we do too and we just wanted to let you know that, you know, that even though sometimes would probably be in a single mom might not seem like people are thinking of you, we just wanted to let you know that people are thinking of you. Man, it's bringing me, it's bringing me the tears. Oh, thank you. This is really, this means a lot. So thank you so much.

Thank you. Oh, you're welcome. You're welcome. We just want to let you know we out there grinding with you, you doing all the work, but we got you back. That's all we say, you know? Hey, you know, and that's, that's right. Thank you guys so much and it's who's cheering back, like you just said, so thank you so

much. Well, we certainly are in Happy Early Mother's Day to you and you guys have fun at the baseball game and I'll have my producer reach out and you guys go do something fun this summer. Okay, no, thank you so much, Theo. Thank you and nice meeting you. Yeah, nice to meet you too. It's a pleasure. You look lovely today and I hope you have a good rest of the day.

Okay, thank you, sweetheart. Bye. Bye-bye. Man, and that's beautiful to see, you know, it's nice to see just a smiling face. You know, it's nice to see a mom smiling. You know, that makes me feel good. You know, I don't, I don't think, you know, my mother was under a lot of stress growing up and just nice to see a mom just having some joy, you know, and that's what this is

all about, man, is just those moments of connection. You know, and that's really what life is about, I think. As much as I want to isolate some times and I want to get in my own space and I want, and I think that that's the answer. You know, I think if I can just get this other little rest or this other little separation of this other time to myself, then I'll be, but it's the thing that it's a trick and it's connection that we need. You know, the opportunity, even just the opportunity to listen for 30 seconds for a minute about

a mom who likes going to play, see her son play, picture, first base, catcher, all some of the skill positions. And I was out there and damn left field and people's eating mushrooms, eating psychedelic mushrooms on accident out there. Praise God, but, but yeah, there's just something warm about it, man. There's something. There's something almost relieving about it. There's something almost relieving about just listening to having a conversation with a

connecting with a, with a, with a, with a young lady and hearing her just talk about how she cares about her son and just how they have a nice little time together. You know, um, for both those ladies, you know, I thought it was really sweet. Alicia said her son is polite. That's a man. That's a nicest, a little polite kid. Man. That's the nicest little thing, you know, cause then manages offers so many other bridges

to be built there when you already have politeness out of the gate. So much opportunity for connection, man, when one person is saying, Hey, what else, man? That's all I got. You know, that's all I got. Happy early mother's day to you guys and father's down. There's a lot of single dads out there too that are grinding and getting it done. And look, we'll switch it over to you guys one of these days and run it up for the pops out there, uh, but, uh, I'm excited to see some of y'all on tour and I'm just, I'm just

excited to be a part of this podcast, man. You know, I'm staying busy and I'm working just, I'm just not giving up. I'm not giving up on myself, you know, another week. I'm not giving up on myself and I might give up in certain moments. I might not win every moment, but I'm going to do my best to win the day if I can. And if I don't win every day, I'm gonna do my best to win the week, you know, uh, and you can too. You know, and I know that, uh, most of you are, and for those of you who aren't, who

are struggling, man, uh, you know, just hang in there. That's all you get. You just got to hang in there. That's the thing. You know, life is a dog, man, but it's every part of a dog. You know, in some parts it'll scratch it, some parts will bite you, but some parts is warm. Some parts will wag. Hell, some parts you get a little bit of milk out of them.

You know what I'm saying, bro? That's a different, I mean, that's, well, that's certain times, but whatever. You know what I'm saying? Praise God, baby. You guys be good to yourself, man. You guys deserve it. And on the way out today, we're going to listen to, uh, Josh Kelly, hold me my Lord. And man, this is Josh Kelly featuring all voices in this one.
