And thank you so much for the support out there in the world. What's up, guys? My name is Theo. I'm a human being. Happy just checking in about life right now. What's been going on recently? I've been feeling pretty good recently, honestly. It's a little scary. I get a little scared sometimes

when things are going well or when things are feeling good. I don't know how to handle it. I think there's a little part of me that feels like, oh, you don't deserve it. It's not something's wrong. I think I'm just so used to the feelings inside of me over the years, not being good ones, that those are the footprints. Those are the footprints I continue to walk in. You know? And so only recently have I felt like I'm kind of making some new shapes in the mud. Man, things are kind of going okay. And yeah, it's just such a foreign, it's just been foreign to my life to feel okay. It's been foreign to me. And sometimes there's a part of me

that doesn't want to, that doesn't want to feel okay, if I'm real honest. There's a part of me that always wants to have something wrong. There's a part of me that always wants to be able to look at the world or look at myself or look at my past and say, I told you so. You know? So it's scary almost to be like, I think everything's kind of okay. Because it feels kind of new. But yeah, I just wanted to kind of check in

with some of just some, you know, I like feelings. I like most of my life. I really have been kind of addicted to my own feelings, I realize. You know, I even noticed that when I go to like these recovery meetings and stuff, I'll be in there and people are talking about being addicted to a drug or an alcohol or something. Over the years, I've been addicted a lot of times to my own feelings. It's like I start having a feeling and then I'll start sipping off that bitch. You know, I start feeling one way and then I'll buy an eight ball of my own feelings almost. I'm like, well, I'm going to better do a couple grams of this depression.

I'm better do a couple lines of, I'm not enough. You know, I can get that my feelings become almost the drug that I'm using. I don't know if that makes any sense. And that's okay if it doesn't. I'm just saying what's going on. But what's up? Nice to see you guys. Nice to be a part of your life today. I'm happy to be alive. I miss my brother that I've been thinking about him a lot recently. He's alive. I just miss him. What else? I went to the Super Bowl the other day, which I can't even believe I'm just saying that so casually. But dang, I went to the damn Super Bowl, which was fine. It was good. It's almost a little, you get, you go to the

Super Bowl and it's such a business. It's such a corporate deal. Everybody there smells like they're a briefcase or has a business account or something. Everybody claims their friends with Puff Diddy or Jeff Gordon or some shit or Guy Fiori. Everybody's like, oh, I got you know, I got seven autograph spatulas from Guy Fiori. I'm like, all right, well, chill out, you know, big daddy or whatever. But it's like, there's a lot. It just feels like a real business-y event so much so that you almost feel bad for the players on the field because it doesn't seem like it's about the game that much. They stop in the game every 30 seconds. They got, they're selling a toaster. They're selling a Nintendo, you know, they got, they put a new

hearing aid in, you know, in Big Ricky, the offensive, you know, tackle. And they're, you know, look at Ricky, you know, Ricky hears his dog for the first time or whatever. You know, Ricky hears someone open a lunchable for the first time ever. You ever hear, you ever see those videos? They'll be like, you know, disabled veteran hears Wolf Howell or, you know, Native American, disabled Native American hears Wolf Howell for the first time. And they'll have a, they'll have a disabled NA out there and he's all feathered out or something or he's washing his feet or something and he doesn't know what's going on. And then they put that earpiece in him.

And then they show the fucking Wolf. And then the guy like looks up for the first time, you know, and probably starts jerking off. I mean, if I, I gotta, if I'm, this is no judgment, but if I'm, if I've never heard anything my whole life and I hear a fucking Wolf said it off dog, I mean, you got a damn, you got a pretty, you got to come soon. And I feel like how, I mean, that's as native and natural as you can get. But anyway, yeah, it was just very corporate, you know, every 30 seconds, they're stopping it and selling something and it just gets real corporate to the point where you're like, you almost, it's hard, it's hard to even pay attention to the game. There's so much going on. But I felt grateful to be able to go and have

that experience. I went down there with, with Raising Canes with some of them Louisiana boys. So that was very exciting. I mean, I just can't believe I got to go to the dang Super Bowl. I was sitting there and Caleb Presley was there and you know, I'm a fan of his and and it was just interesting, you know, and just like, dude, I can't believe I'm at the Super Bowl. Oh, you know, it was just, I don't know, kind of blew my own mind. Oh, but here was the thing that happened that made the weekend amazing. I got to meet Drew Brees, man. I got to meet Drew Brees. And I was over there with David Spades and y'all know David Spades. Okay. One of my heroes and all one of America's heroes. I mean, he's the damn Davy Crockett of Humor.

And he invited me over to a party. He was a fundraiser. They're raising funds and so we go there and it's nice. There's like, there's like rich people and somebody's, somebody was like being real rich and then somebody was next to them and they were, you know, they started crying and the other person's like, don't cry, you're rich, you know. So people were just being fucking rich in this place. And and so we walk up and Blake Shelton is there and I like Blake Shelton, man. I like Blake Shelton. He is an Oklahoma guy and he, you know, he just sings and he's comfortable, man. And I've met him before and and I like him. I like him. So anyway, we walk up Blake Shelton is playing.

It's like, it's like the part in the evening at a party where somebody is playing music so everybody kind of has to be quiet. And we walk up and there's a guy, Steve Mariucci. Okay. He's a coach. He's a coach and I want to say he's Italian. I'm not trying to be racial or anything, but that's Italian, you know, and he looks Italian, you know, he looks like if you, if you tickle him, he'll fucking just, he'll tell you all the ingredients of a cannoli, even if he doesn't want to, you know, he just has that, that look to him and I walk up and Steve Mariucci is talking to Drew Brees and I've had dreams in my life in my head where I'm like, how do you meet? Do you ever meet Drew Brees? Does God want you to ever meet Drew Brees? You know, does mother nature, is there

ever another flood and one of y'all gets flooded right up next to the other one and you get to finally meet? And so there he is. And I was, and so when you're with David Spade, David Spade can kind of just go up to anybody and like be like, and people are like happy about it. So I'm just kind of milling around in the distance being like, Hey, look at David Spade. And, and so anyway, he walks, Spade walks up and I just kind of like in his shadow, like kind of there, but hiding, but trying to be like confident like, okay, how do I, how do I walk up to Drew Brees? You know, do I look like, do I look right at him? Do I kind of look, you know, at the moon? Like, well, you know, how do you do it? Do I, you know, put my shoulders even? Do I kind of like be like one

shoulder is heavier? Do I, what do I do? You know, and I was nervous, man. And so David kind of starts joking and they're both excited to see to Spade and they're talking to him and I'm right there. And I know at some point it's coming around that Spade is going to introduce me. So I'm like, what, you know, how do I, how do I look when they, he's like, Hey, this is the, and I'm like, do I smile? Do I, so I don't know what to do. So I open my mouth, right? Which is insane. I think that's an insane, you know, your meat. Okay, that guy's mouth open. And then I put both hands out like this. Like, if you know, if you ask somebody, how long is something they say about one foot long? That's what I did. He like, David introduced me to each guy and I, it was almost like you

would give in somebody. It was almost like that guy may be in, what's the sport? Maybe is that rugby or cricket? When the guy does that, you know, anyway, so I did two hands. I had two hands shaped, Mary Uchi and, and breeze. And so out the gate, I'm like, oh, God, this, you know, I'm not doing that good. Hey, I'm not doing good, you know. And I started just kind of praying for myself. What you're not supposed to do. I know that, you know, you're supposed to pray for others. But I did, I, I needed, I needed it. And I was right there. And I'm like, what do you say? When do you say something? Do you say anything? Who are you? Are you someone that says something soon? Or are you not? Do you just listen? Do you laugh? How loud do you laugh?

Do you laugh? You don't want to sound like a fake, you know? So anyway, I'm just being alive. And and breeze is dialed in, bro. When you're talking to him, he's like, you can see in his eye, bro, he could play for, I think another, I think he could play for another 20 months in the NFL. Well, he's just, he's so locked in, like you're talking to him and you can see he's watching like where the waiters and the bus boys are going. You know, he can see the, you know, that one of the waiters is running an out route to go on a smoke break. He can see that the bus boy did a curl, but you know, short of the sticks, you can, I mean, he's like, he's called, you know, he's got an audible, he's got Colston going, but there's everything he's, he is monitoring everything.

While you're there talking to him, he is dialed in. He is dialed into life. And you don't even know if Drew Brees blinks. That's how much he blinks when you blink. He sees you blink. So that's when he, that's when he blinks. He ain't missing a moment. He's locked in. And it was interesting because I asked him, I said, Hey, did you guys ever play against each other? Him and Mariucci, right? And, and Brees was like, yeah, we sure did. And if he rattled off the date, he rattled off the score. And if you could just, I mean, he is just an anthology of, of precision is kind of how I would describe it as much as I got to, you know, I got, I got to talk with them for maybe about 10 minutes total. And maybe 90 seconds, I could kind of feel my arms and legs

while I was doing it. So a lot of time I was just pretending to, you know, have a stable what's it called when they, oh, pulse. So anyway, that's a lot about Drew Brees. But we're going to take some calls that came in from you guys. What else? I'm going to, to, I got to meet, oh, I got to meet. I know I'm name dropping, man, but I just was so like George Kittle and I'd seen like videos, George Kittle and but he, there's that it's like, it's a me, he, there is, uh, I don't even know. It's you got, it's George Kittle is, he is an interesting guy. He's got his energy. He shows up at a level where you're like, oh, I didn't know they had this level, you know, um, but he was very kind. I'm friends with

Sometimes I don't, I get on here and I don't, I don't know what to tell you about. I don't know what to share with you. I don't know what to, um, you know, the whole time I was talking to Drew Brees, I could see him just, he was always every now and then he would glance in the distance and just see if Devery Henderson was open. That's all. That's all I'm going to say about that. Um, the news man, let's get into a little bit of news. The Ohio, uh, trained derailment, a trained derailment in East Palestine, Ohio prompted an array of false and misleading claims on social media. You know that,

um, a Norfolk Southern train left the tracks while traveling from Madison, Illinois to Conway, Pennsylvania, uh, residents were ordered to evacuate and evacuation is hard. It seems like easier you get in your car or truck or camper and drive, but where do you go? Traffic is full. You know, if you don't have gas already, then you have to go wait for gas first. So then you're at the pump, you're pumping gas and you're huffing gas because the, the, the atmosphere is filled with it. And then there's all kinds of rumors that, you know, that how it got burned off. Some people say that the government showed up and did it. Some people say there were just, uh, you know, a couple of damn Browns fans or, or, uh, Steelers fans firing,

um, fireworks and new it and shit blew it all up. I mean, you can't keep a gas in the air, you know, in some of these areas without somebody lighting it, you know, even if you're at a party and you fart, somebody will run over there and light it if you're in Cleveland. I mean, who, you know, who we kidding? You know, so I'm not shocked that it got lit up. I think a lot of people are, are freaked out. They had a man yelling at the sky. I'll tell you this, the whole thing was better than any M night Shyamalan movie I've seen in fucking 10 years. Has anybody been given more opportunities than that guy? Um, then you have all these people with their home values. Now

they're scared that they have no equity in their homes, but just because of the fear of this. And you don't know, you know, we live in a space now where we expect things to be done quickly where so you, you see something on the internet, you see, okay, this should be solved right now. And in some ways it should, there should be like task force should be sent to help, you know, there should be plans in place for things. But the speed of life is not the same as the speed of the internet, the speed of social media. You know, it's easier for somebody to be like, help these people, right? And I even do it on Twitter the other day, I shared something. It was like where the like transportation had a transportation. Where is the Norfolk Southern people? Like just

trying to, I guess I'm just rattling the cage. But yeah, you wonder like, how do these people start to feel okay when they go to like a town hall meeting and they're just yelling at a mayor and he doesn't know. But it's scary, you know, the rail system has been, we've done a horrible job in America of taking care of our rail system, of taking care of our postal system. Dude, I would rather give my shit, dude, more people, the rail system, first of all, more people are going on Hogwarts train than on any Amtrak. That's the facts. More people are lining up for Hogwarts. So I don't know, it's just heartbreaking, man, you see that out there, these people got derailed. And a lady, it says right here, throwing

rock and water. And she looks insane, this lady. And she's saying, look at all the chemicals in the water. Yeah, but that's just damn water, too, lady. I mean, I know it's bad over there. If you're over there, hit hit the hotline, let us know 985-6649503. But I think a lot of this falls back on, do you feel like your country cares anymore? Do you feel like I think we're living, we're getting into a space where people do not feel supported by their country. They don't feel like there's this. They're always used to feel like this texture behind us that our country was unified and supporting us and looking out for the regular man and woman and the child who was getting a pail of clean water in East Palestine, as opposed to the big business, you know,

big chloride or whoever spilled all this shit. And then now you got a lady. And the water looks. Look at it. It's all in the bottom of the creek bed. Yeah. I mean, you don't know also, they could have, we don't know, you don't know a video. Somebody, this thing could be right outside of a pet boy's and they've been spilling shit back in there for years. I'm not denying it. I'm just saying that who knows. But yeah, there'll be shrimp coming out of here probably a decade from now wearing a fucking top hat. You'll have a, you know, in a neck brace, it's all going to be bad. Newborn babies could come out

with fucking, you know, in with neck braces on their knees. It's going to, who knows? Who knows what's going to happen? A lot of, you know, they're going to have a lot of new young women that look like Rob Gronkowski problem. Who know? We don't know. But we're there with you in spirit. What else can we be? That's all we can be right now. All right. As some of you guys know, Kai the Hitchhiker, who is a notorious figure in entertainment, I guess. He's a homeless, or not homeless, he's a vagabond. He is a tumbleweed with a bit of violence that surrounds him. That's all I'll say. He filed a lawsuit against me for a TikTok clip that was put up or Instagram clip

that I didn't create that I shared. And I wanted to talk with my buddy, Dan Morgan over at the Morgan and Morgan attorney firm at the Morgan and Morgan law firm and see what the deal was. So let's, let's make that call now if we can. Hello, this is Dan. Hey, Dan, man. What's up? But it's Theo. Hey, man, what's going on? Well, I sent you, you know, I got served. I want to talk about the Kai the Hitchhiker thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I got those documents I reviewed them actually over the weekend. Yeah, man. So is it a real, is it a real thing? Like, is it I'm just, I guess I'm kind of, I don't know, you know, I guess I'm scared. I'm, yeah, I'm scared about it. I don't know what to do. It is real in the sense that he did file it. He did.

I make some claims. He's currently incarcerated. I believe in New Jersey, it seems, and he kind of learned the law a little bit and drafted up this complaint. So it is an actual complaint that did get served in federal court. You know, as far as the merits to it, I don't think there's much there. I think a motion to dismiss will kind of clean it up for you. Okay. So what do I, what is he asking for? So he's making some, some pretty egregious claims in there. I mean, he goes into a lot of TMI really about his other cases and his other, his other legal troubles that's going on. But then he pretty much does some type of algebraic equation that, that gets to a demand request somewhere around $30 million. I think it's around 20,

29,750,000 something around those damages from YouTube and Instagram views. What do I do? I must have to work. I mean, do I have to work forever or what? I mean, it sounds like he's claiming you've already made this money. So the question is, what have you done with all that money? Dude, what is he talking about, dude? I fucking have a, I drive a Ford Ranger. He's saying you made all this money off using this, this deep fake of him. You've stolen his, his valor, so to speak. I didn't make it. I stole his name. He's sorry. It's a mother. No, you're all good. Yeah. He has this whole kind of outlandish theory that you have a fake identity daughter account where you made this

and then repurpose it to then, to then post on your YouTube and without having to be the point person that he could go after. Wow. It's like a 30 page manifesto complaint. He, he's, he's, he's doctored up from a, from this federal penitentiary. So is this so, so when do I, how long, when do I need to, when do I need to do something? So it looks like he got, like he, he served about eight days ago or so. I, you have 21 days per, per federal civil procedure. So, you know, just, just an answer pretty much saying, you know, this is a bogus ball suit, a motion to dismiss and a judge should just throw it out for you. But you do have to kind of make sure you get those timelines done or else there could be a default

judgment where old Kai could get a check from field for 30 million. Well, he's never, I don't know where he'd be cash it. Yeah, that's a thing. I think might take it. Okay. So what do, do you, does, does y'all's law firm help with that? Or is that something I need to do? That's something that I can help you get, get to the right person to do. You know, we're, we're, we're only a plaintiff's type firm. We don't only do this defense work, but I can definitely get you the right hands out there with California. Okay. Federal attorney get this thing cleaned up for you. Okay. Jesus, dude. Yeah, I can't, I mean, um, and is this, is this going to be like a thing that happens in the world? Because this was a deep fake that I didn't have anything to do with.

I mean, obviously I repurposed it and put it out. And I think it, I thought it was funny and entertaining. So I don't know if there is some responsibility there. I don't know. Exactly. And when you kind of sent this over to me, I kind of started doing some research. And it's obviously a thing that's popping up more and more now with technology getting as it is. And you just really put in any video with any picture and it turns it out. But, you know, pretty much it falls under some copyright exceptions where, where it's parody. It's an ultimate defense. So, um, you know, if it's art, it's parody. It's not meant to be real. You know, there's some protections out there, especially like political figures and revenge porn stuff

like that, where there's been laws that have been put, put into place for deep fakes. But as far as, you know, this type of stuff is really, it's just parody where, where there's no real recourse or damages that can be assessed for it. Wow. It's interesting because that's going to, I mean, with, with CGI and that sort of this kind of thing, this is going to be probably a growing field. Yeah. Oh, it's popping up. Yeah. Cause I mean, they got, you know, when the political races around, they'll just take the, whatever party they don't like and just have them saying some outlandish, you know, outlandish comments, like, you know, crazy stances and they put it out there on YouTube and it gets retweeted and I say, you know, it becomes fact.

How, I mean, how do we, what does the future hold? I mean, even now it's like, I mean, the videos are getting better and better, but now they even have it where you can type in, you know, manifest those, our lyrics and it will spit it out in the person's voice too. So there doesn't even have to be a recording and saying it's just, you know, copying of their vocals now and spitting it out. Yeah. Yeah. We just been talking about some of that recently that chat GPT, I think it's called. And when that merges with like holograms or deep fakes, it's going to get, I mean, it's going to get really strange, you know, I saw a thing a while back where they had so much footage and audio of Joe Rogan that they could make him have,

they could have audio of him now saying absolutely almost anything in the world. Oh, exactly. Yeah. And that's how we have it. All these politicians, nothing to make the speeches, you know, three speeches a day, they're just downloaded at all. And hey, let's make them say, you know, listen to like other like, like power started in the past, it would take, I mean, you know, years to chop up something to have it, even not even some knowledge, you just pipe it into a, into a chat bot and spits it out in 30 seconds. Yeah, man. I mean, all we cared about was make them say, oh, no, no, no, no. And it's just changed so much. Is this, is this going to be a field that you guys will cover a lot at Shell's law firm? Or is this? I mean, if there was some,

there was damages against the natural planet, where if there's some real harm that was done, and, you know, and something came from it, we definitely look, look into it. But as far as just the celebrities having deep fakes made and stuff like that, you know, it's probably something that we're going to stay away and just see how the law evolves around it. Amen. Dude, thanks so much, man. I appreciate it, bro. It's definitely been spooky. And yeah, the guy came up and served the papers and I thought it was like a jute, like a, I don't want to say like a homeless, not home. I mean, he was like, yeah, they're sneaky. Those process servers, you get sneaky with it. Bro, I thought it was like kind of a game, like kind of a, a dude who was being kind of homoerotic or

something. Cause he kind of just, I mean, he just like kind of moseyed up. I thought he'd written me a poem or something. And then, and then he hit me with that. And he kind of like, he didn't give like, yeah, yeah. Kind of like, it was just, I don't know, bro, but I'm trying to meet a wife. It was just surprising. I'd never really been served any papers. I'd seen it happen a lot, but I'd never got him myself. So it was almost kind of nice, dude. And it was almost like a Valentine in a weird way. Right? Yeah. Someone was thinking about you. Yeah, that's true. These days, that's nice. Dan Morgan, thanks so much, man. I appreciate it, brother. Anytime, man. I'm always a call away. Yeah. Thank you so much, dude. I'll chat with you soon.

All right. Sounds good, man. All right, peace. If you have a question about a legal issue, you have a something that you think they might be able to help with. The least I can do for that, for the help there is to put their information below. You know, it's scary. It's scary when something comes along or when there's something in the legal realm and you don't know what to do, you know, that can be spooky. Okay, let's get into some calls if we can. Here we go. As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503. Yo, Theo, my name's D-Rap. I'm out here in Indiana, you know, home of the mess. D-Rap. Thank you for calling, brother. Onward. Home of the fucking cord.

And, you know, I just had a question, man. So I got a friend and he's my best friend, one of my best friends. We started becoming friends a few years ago. Man, he's been cheating on his girlfriend and I don't really like any of that. And I told him, man, I'm going to need to tell you a girlfriend. If you're cheating on her, man, I'll give you a week to tell her. Man, that week went by and I told him, man, I need to tell your girls that, man, don't worry about it. We're not getting broken up. So, you know, like, what do I do in that situation? I don't want to tell his girlfriend because he's my homie. But at the same time, I hate cheaters because my dad cheated on my mom back in the day. And, you know, that sure really fucks me up. And I've been

cheating on her. So, meth or corn, baby. Meth or corn. That's the lifelong question, brother. I feel you. I think you got to, you can definitely say to your buddy, hey, not cool to cheat on this gal. I don't know if you go tell the gal though. That's a little bit snitchy. That's a little bit like I'm going to take responsibility. You know, it's not, that's not your world. So, I mean, it's your world, but it's, I don't know. That to me feels like you're trying to control too much of things. Now, maybe if it goes on for a long, you know, it's so tough to know, but I feel like that's a little bit more of a thing you take up with your boy. That's what you do. You take it up with your boy. Hey, man, I don't think this is a good thing.

You know, I wish you wouldn't do this. But then also, I mean, who knows, you know, it's tough. If you may have a feeling for that girl, but I don't know if that's the way to go about it. I would start with your boy, man. I would just say it again. And then if you put a week on, I mean, you didn't do nothing, then you're not even really about it anyway. So, if you're going to be about it, be about it, you know? So, I would say, man, I can't, you know, if you're going to be, that's not the vibe I like to put out there. It's not something I want to be associated with, then that's fair. But then you got to stand by that with them. If you just tell them every week, hey, man, don't be cheating or I'm out of here. And then you stick around,

you know, then you're going to tell her that you didn't even do nothing. So praise God, baby. Thank you for calling. That's what I suggest. Also, I don't know a thing, man. You know, I've been a cheater. I've cheated on people and I don't know. It's fucking, it is no, it's no way to treat somebody. I know that. But praise God, baby. Let's see what else we got. All right, let's take this call. As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503. Hey, I'm calling. I have, I've worked in a learning center. And that's a school, baby. That's a school onward. Just past few weeks, I've been having, there's just been, I work with special ed kids and,

you know, it's. Oh, yeah. I know what you're talking about, brother. I was in special ed, baby. Let's hear more. It's a job. It gets stuff done. But recently there's been a kid named James, he has autism. And recently he's been trying to sexually assault me. That adds up, baby. Yeah. I mean, I feel like if somebody, I don't know how to say this. First of all, a lot of people named James have, you know, they're tizmed out. And that's, you could draw a damn graph of that. And, and it would check out. But what are we talking about? Let me play it again. Recently there's been a kid named James, he has autism. And recently he's been trying to

sexually assault me. Yeah. Well, look, if people have autism, they're gonna want to fuck, they want to get out that damn, you know, they want to fucking burp that little nut wand, baby. You know, they, I mean, sometimes you just, I feel, you ever just been so just, you just want to spray on something. So I can't even, if I had autism, I'd, you know, if I had fully documented autism, I would be, I'd spray on half the things in town, probably. Let's hear more. And you know, I don't really care, but it's more frightening for the other students. Yes. And the thing is, you know, I know they can't help it and stuff, but every time that he does that, he just has this look in his eyes. Oh yeah. This lustful, evil look.

Well, they say, if they say, if the devil's got your nuts, he's got your eyes. Because the eyes are just the nuts of the face. So yeah, the feeling you have in your nuts is always the feeling that you have in your eyes. Go punch somebody in the nuts and look in their eyes. Same pain, baby. And yeah, look, it's tough, man. Look, first of all, I commend you for being out there and being on the front lines of, um, of special ed. You know, let's hear more. Almost like he knows what he's doing and if he knows that it's wrong, and he'll be,

you know, he'll be running around and he'll be, stop that James. Stop it, James. Please stop. And you know, he'll be a helicopter in it and it's just, it's scary. And we're a little, we're a little afraid for our safety. Well, let's don't get crazy. You know, I mean, you don't have to be afraid for your safety at all. You got to, you know, you got a mentally unwell fellow just, you know, running around trying, you know, I mean, he's probably in heat. Have you thought about that? It's spring, baby. It's almost spring. It's going to be spring in a few months. So you don't know what, you know, and if somebody's autism, they might be off by a month or two and they're genetics easily. You can easily see that.

That's fucking, that's the DNA leap year homie. If you got autism. So yeah, dude, it's springtime. That fella's in heat. That's what you're getting there. James is in heat, man. I'd get him a little bust post over in the corner, get a little pair of, get you a half of a mannequin and put some damn daisy dukes on it. That's what I would do and put that thing, you know, put a candle or two in a closet and let him get in there and pump on it. You know, you have to have a plan, but if you're just yelling, stop it, James. And he's out there just, you know, he's tugging on that little spunk whisker. That's, stop it. James isn't going to

help. You know, you're not a damn crossing guard, brother, or hit him with some Narcan, brother. That'll shut anybody down. You know, they don't like to put all the different, you know, uses or whatever on the thing, but if I got a, you know, somebody in my area and they're over there splurging that little, uh, that little splash hammer right in front of me, I'll just hit him with that Narcan, baby. You know, let the Lord sort them out. Praise God. Babe, let's hear a little bit more and thank you for the call, man. I'm sorry that you're having to deal with some of this. And I'm almost afraid of some students cause we found it, we found a collection of, uh, almost like a booger collection, but it was, it was other people's

pictures that he took from under stairwell. So, but we've been working on stuff. I don't know what to do with him. Well, he might be damn an artist, brother. You can't, you know, it sounds like he's an artist. So don't condemn him for that. Um, you know, I know they can't help it, but every time I, every time I look him in the eyes, he's just, he's just panting with that lustful, um, he'll smirk when he does it too. It's like he knows what he's doing. That's heat, brother. He's in heat and that's somebody in heat. And so I think at that point you got to do prayer. You got to, you got to consider Narcan, but I would do prayer first. And, um, and yeah, and look, I'll just commend you, man, for being there

and being there on the front lines of autism. This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com slash Theo and get on your way to being your best self.

What else came in? Man, I was feeling had a couple of comedy sets last night. We had some sets. I forgot to tell you down in Louisiana. That was, it was fun. A couple of them, the crowds were a little rowdy, but the ones that weren't, my God, they were awesome. Man, they were awesome shows. I'm so thankful. It was so

just cool to go through Louisiana and we're over there, you know? And we went to Shreeport. Geez, Shreeport. That play, this, it went out of business. I mean, they had, it was just, they had a building there. I was walking on the street. A building asked me for $40. So, all right, let's hear this call that came in right here. Hey Theo, I want to hear your opinion about something that happened to me at work recently. To give you a little background on me, I grew up with a gay mom and she had a meth addiction. My brother's gay. My niece is a bisexual transgender woman in the polyamorous relationships. Damn. You living in a dang Skittle Bowl, baby. Amen, brother onward.

I'm not against any of it, honestly. Same, bro. Oh, same, baby. I want people to be true to themselves, you know, but it's all fun and games, man. Until your boss, who's the HR manager, texts you unwanted propositions at a chili cookoff at work. Oh, yeah. Yeah. A lot of times food can be a gateway drug to all homosexuality. Let's hear more. Anyway, you and me are about the same age and things are for sure different than when we grew up and with the current climate. How do you think I should approach this situation?

Well, just because somebody's hitting on you, I think if you are gay or considering gay, and let me repeat that, if you are gay or considering gay, then approach this man. Return him. Go do it. Do the chili. Do the chili with him. That's fine. Nobody's, you know, I mean, you're probably most of your family's gay. It sounds like it, you know, anybody that even stops by your house ends up gay to be on it from what you said. So you could easily be gay, dude. You might be, you might not even be lonely. You might just be gay and be just gay and around bothering women. I'm not saying that, but it could be happening.

But I don't think you need to feel a pressure because of the way the climate is to return any homoerotic, homoeroticism. You know, you don't have to do anything like that. Just because of the climate, you don't want, you know, just because there's a lot of gay stuff happening, you have to, you know, do that. But also innately, some of these chili cookoff circles, it's a hotbed for gay activity. You know, it's a lot of men, it's all men doing it. They're wearing aprons. You see a lot of that cutting onions when I'm tearing up, when I'm coming over, what's up? What's up? What's up, Henry? What's wrong? Nothing's fucking wrong, dude. He's got to deal with the damn devil's vegetables.

That's what it is. I mean, onions, that's a, you know, my God, it's the Nicholas Sparks of fucking vegetables. I mean, when do we, when do we shut that shit down? Just, but yeah, that hold the whole thing with the chili cookoff. It's a hotbed for gay men to sneak in and, you know, hit you with that little shishito pepper, you know, and just hit you with that little, you know, just try to get you to sip off that little, that little batter fountain off a little Bobby's little fondue railing, you know, you know what I'm talking about, Wiener. So, uh, yeah, I think just take care of yourself either way, but also if you, you know, it may, you might be reading yourself wrong. Here's what I would do. I would get seven or eight of your

friends. I would ask them all, am I gay? Do you think? Or on a scale of one to 10, don't even go all this, you know, put, get yourself a number and then walk out into the world and know. Thank you for the call, man. I love you and we all love you. What else do we have here? What's going on, Bill? It's Mike and it's that urban gentleman. What's up, Mike, baby? Urban Mike, baby. Welcome, baby. Praise God, son. Beige gang out of South Florida. Um, so, uh, I was adopted at birth, man, and, um, you know, I don't know anybody from my, you know, my biological side and, uh, I decided to do some searching. I found my, uh, I found my mother on Facebook and I found, uh, I found some bad news. She's, uh, she's locked up right now up

north, uh, for a, for a while, for quite a while. But, um, I, uh, I decided to message her yesterday, man. I only got the ball as a message. I was nervous. I didn't know how she would respond, you know, and, uh, she, she emailed me back this morning and there was a real positive, you know, like everything she had to say was real positive and it's just, it's crazy, man. It's crazy. You know, it's something I dreamed about my entire life, like every day since I can remember I dreamed of being able to talk to my mother, man. And, uh, she's going to give me a call this, uh, this afternoon and we're going to talk on the phone for the first time. It's crazy, man. It's been 32 years since the last time I saw her, you know, so I don't know exactly, you know,

I, I text my brother, my adopted brother and let him know. And then the next thing I did was I hopped on the phone and gave you a call, man. I don't, you know, I don't know exactly why, you know, obviously we don't know each other, but I just, I wanted to share that with you, man. Man, thank you, bro. Thank you, man. This is, uh, that's a nice, it's just nice, you know, it's nice that there's something powerful going, there's something powerful going on in your life and you thought, and you, your nature, whoever you are, you thought, Hey man, I'm feeling something, there's really something special going on. I'm going to share it with somebody else, not even that it was with me, with this group, uh, but this is a powerful moment. I'm going to

share this with somebody else. That's awesome, man. Thank you for the call. Uh, you got me up in here, dawg. You hit me in those, man. My Tism James is a fricking, you got me in there with them. My little skeet almonds, these things are activated. Oh, you know, it's funny, man. You, because you sound like you're in a good place, man. This is just judgment from this call, but you sound like you're in a good place. And, um, obviously your mother probably is in the best place, uh, with jail, but it sounds like you are going to be able to be there. You may have a chance to be for your mother, what she wasn't for you, which, and, and, and that you may be strong enough to do that. And that is, that's on God, man. I think

yeah, I can't imagine, you know, waiting your whole life to talk to your mother God. You know, all those times when you don't even realize as a child, as an offspring, as a creation of something that you need that thing to be there. And not even sometimes their voice, but even just in their presence to know that something is there to support you. Like just like a wall, but like a wall that like loves you so matter so, so much, no matter what, and a wall that's really also a door. Man, but it sounded you, you, however your life has worked out that you you sound healthy enough where you can, you might be able to be whatever she never had.

In addition to you guys working out your mother-son relationship. And that's really, that's, that's what I guess amazing about life. It's like, what am I supposed to, how can I be useful in this situation? And me, I don't know if I could do that. Cause I would probably look too much at my own plight. I'd be looking too much at, oh man, my mother, this, and I don't know if I'd be able to turn that corner and say honestly, Hey, what is, why now are we back together and what, how do I look past my own angst or my own, you know, or you may not even have anymore of that shit, but how do I rise above that to be whatever? How do I be a great son and an adult son?

You know, I've had trouble evolving in that way and evolving from being just a son to being an adult son. That's funny. It's just kind of a space that I'm in in my life. But man, and I didn't mean to talk about myself so much. It just, it's powerful that you chose to share that with us, man. Man, you know how good that makes us feel. First of all, to have an urban guy call urban person that even fucking messes with us, bro. Praise God though. But even more than that, just that, that you're like, Hey, I'm going to, I'm going to be, that you let all of us, you let us enjoy that moment with you. You let us in on that, man. You know how much that it's going to give us something.

It's going to give us a little bit more faith. It's going to get us through the next day, the next hour. Then there's some people just might be a minute, but it's going to give us something. It gives me a real, we want to believe that there's things out there that are working for good. That's cool, man. So excited for you, bro. If you get a chance, man, hit the hotline again. I'd just love to know how it went. But if you are in that space where you say, Hey, man, this is something powerful and I'm going to call them a share. I'm going to let this be a part of this ambiance of this show. Man, that means a lot. And yeah, we'll connect. And let me see, maybe there's something, if there's something nice we could do to help out or help her, I don't know.

But somehow, even though, even though it was giving you up or what, I don't know all, I don't know any of it, but she helped make a good son. You know, she helped make a good son somehow. So, man, you know, this stuff, I guess, makes me want to be alive. It makes me want to be alive. You know, it's those moments, man, where you fucking something, you feel something. God, that shit is hot. That is a high, bro. That is a high, bro. Yeah. Praise God, baby. Thank you for calling in. I don't know. I mean, what else are we going to say?

Yeah, that's, you know, I feel like it's just a good place to finish a show today. This show's been all over the place. I've been feeling all over the place, but that's okay. I'm grateful to be here with you guys. I'm grateful. We're going to be adding more. We're going to try to get over to England. We got, we're going to try to get to everywhere. You know, we're putting the shows out as we can. Next week we'll have some new shows going up in, I think, in St. George, Utah, or Springdale, Utah. We're figuring some of that out if you have a plan to be down there. That'll be around the second week of July, second weekend. Let's go out the way that we didn't even come in.

We'll just close it out, man. A lot of neat stuff. I don't know what else to say. Maybe we've said enough. I don't know. I feel like there's something else I'm supposed to be telling you guys, but to all the people out there struggling with the stuff in the Midwest and the fear and stuff like that is scary. It's scary to think that this template of the world, sometimes we feel, especially in America, like our environment, that the world, the government, all this is going to take care of us. When that doesn't happen, it's very scary because we realize we're just this being in this template of society that we've created. If some of that structure fails us or doesn't do us right, we're still sitting there responsible for ourselves.

That's very scary. My heart goes out to the people that are in fear of that. What else, man? I don't know. I've been jerking off, but I don't want to be. So it's been getting better. It's been getting better. That's all we can ask. You guys be good to yourselves, man. You deserve it, and we will. Let's go out with some Bishop again. Actually, you know what? Let's go out with some North Mississippi All Stars drunk outdoors. Let's do that, man. What a fun group to go see, man. They're always torn if he gets to check them out. Outdoors. Now we're cooking with gas on the front by the hot wing gas station down at the corner,

cooking with gas on the front by night. I'm going to drunk out the trunk. Let's go get drunk outdoors. I feel dirty dance floor. Let's go get drunk outdoors. If you got money, you can get a little bit. If you got money, get that hitter. If you got money, you can get a little bit. If you got money, get that hitter. And Lainey Wilson is dating someone, so I'm not trying to spread her news, but everybody's been asking me about it, and that's that. Yeah.
