When you asked her even after like come on Jules told us tell tell on the undress the shit you say behind his back
And she's like he's kind
Yeah, she won't say a mean thing about anybody. I think that's what we got to get her to do
She actually not even people she dislikes. I know but you know that doesn't count what happens internally
You got to verbally say it hmm for me to respect you wait. No, she's just the adult in the room. Oh
Is that what it is? Yeah, she's kinder. She's less bitter than all of us. Yeah. Yeah, she's just she'll get there
She'll get there when life just grinds her down we asked her remember we asked her what did we ask you Jules?
We said
Do you resent anybody in your life and she's like nope?
And I'm like no like do you actually she came up with one person which was her principal and her old?
Catholic school that told her to that she was a bad person for getting a nose ring. Yeah, the only person
I know that she doesn't like is the tear day
The tear oh, yeah tear day. Yeah, but like

Cune

Longer on the obeyed Cune
Cune
Get killed alone. I said that way. That's correct
We get killed alone and then we've got a couple of fine guests coming up fine decent Americans
Um, they're friends of mine. We did a movie together called the wrong missy. I had one line
I think that's what I think that's what I was bummed about. It's the mood. That's what it is
What it is is because I had one line in the movie and then we're promoting it and I just feel shameful
That I had nothing to do in it
Wait, isn't that kind wait, so I see they gave you one line in the movie and then they're asking they're asking you to promote it
Yeah, I mean that's essentially what I think I think that I think that's where my depression comes from
I mean, let me get don't get me wrong. I'm grateful to be in it and I and I it was really fascinating to work with
Spade and Adam Sandler and all those guys, but you know, it's just
Uh, it's I think the least amount of things I've had to do in a movie, I think
Yeah, yeah in any movie I've ever done. So that's I want to lift your mood
But oh, yeah, but Kolela has to lift my mood right now. So go ahead
I want to lift your mood with a Filipino love song. She's gonna Filipino love song that she I want you to look at me
When I sing it to you
Because I have to be on screen so I have to do it like this
Okay, you ready I hope this isn't making them upset. What if this makes them up? I'm already rageful now
Mike's you have you have you have to absorb my love when I sing it to you. Okay? Okay?
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Stop. She called you handsome. Is that what it is? Oh
Oh, I thought she was saying that I was like a piece of shit or whatever. Let's start from the top ready one two
You're pussy
Okay, we'll stop there. Thank you Bobby, what do you think that all meant?
Well, I put so that has to be good. Oh, it is
All right, let's try it. Let's try to translate the first sentence. Yeah, I thought Puso was a good thing
What do you think that means tie he did he will go a hit Hindi Guapo Guapo Guapo is a handsome
So if you really want to know what so you are very handsome. No, it says even if you're not handsome Hindi not yet
Well, you're saying that I'm not and then the second line
Switch
So, so what's the second one translate it the second line is
Cajetna de Matalino
Cajet delete that a limo
Is that the leader mode the mayor of some Filipino island? No, it means even if you're not smart
I'm not smart in the fucking song. You bring it to the third line. Clala. What's happening here? I'm not handsome
I'm not smart. It says this
Oh, is that a little life? Go ahead and then it goes
Which means as long as he has a good heart, he's he's the one I'm gonna choose
Wow, beautiful that I thought I didn't write the lyrics guys
I thought it meant my fisto in your pussy
Well, that's a nice song. Did you write that or is that an old Filipino traditional song? It's a song from the 90s
Oh, so that's a reason you didn't write it. I didn't write it. No, okay. Well, that you know, that's that felt good
Thank you so much, baby, and I feel great. I feel like it made you feel worse. It didn't make me feel worse. It made me feel
Like I was
Just I just got out of a POW camp
I swear so there's a relief. There's relief there. Wait a second. I want you to sing me a korean love song
I'm gonna make it up. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna hack it out. Okay. This is real. This is real
I know what boji means
Oh, I know what
Yeah, I said you're very pretty good. I said your pussy is hideous. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, I said, um
Then I said her face is strange
Yeah, those are the only words I know in korean. I don't know the positive words. You put me up against the fucking wall
That's true. That's true. I didn't know what to do
All right, so you're beautiful. I you want me to speak in English? Yeah, the best in the world. You're so beautiful
to me
Your vagina is pure
tastes like
Jesus's mom's pussy too. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Mary Mary. Oh, sorry. I didn't know her name
But um, so I'm gonna talk to you about Gilbert
Yeah
What's up? I saw you play a war zone
How'd you know that?
Uh, it's online. Everyone's talking about the amazing play from the lead brothers. All right, so
What I realized that number one bad in a war
Real life and game. This is essentially what it's like. I know you hate this baby part
She hates it. She fucking hates it. It's an upset. It's an upset little
She can't get behind it guys dude. She won native american reservation on that. Yeah. Yeah. Mm
So this is essentially what every game's like, okay
This is eric ruffin. All right, meet me by the tree. What tree the tree that I fucking tagged
What tag?
I'm dead
Steve
guys
Guys, I don't know where I'm at. Where are you? He's on the other side of the fucking map
Yeah, he parachuted the other side of the map
And then at the end of the game
Zero kills
Every fucking time. Yeah, it's a terror. It's a terrible. I don't know why though. I like it though. It's stressful
It's very stressful. It's very stressful, but fun
So last night I was playing do you have the video or do you want to you want to I I think I might have just sent it to
George they haven't watched the video to george
so I'm playing with my brother and um
um eric last night and
You don't have my headphones on I'm in the garage. He's five hours deep
He's five hours in a four zone three hours. Wow. No, wasn't you started at 1045 and this was at three midnight
You didn't start at midnight. You were down there much longer
The only reason that I went downstairs to
To check on you was because I had texted you because I hadn't heard a peep in hours and I thought is he okay
Um, yeah, I mean I wasn't okay. I was dying
so what I did was I went to I would walk downstairs to go check on you and um,
You know, that's that's what happens when I check on you
So she
Sneaks show the video she sticks into the garage and I'm playing I didn't sneak in it was I I opened the door like a
Wasn't creeping in right and so then she she's now taping me from behind
He's good. I don't know any I don't know that it was in the fucking garage and I turn around and the sound that I made
Maybe laughs so fucking much
It's I'm number one. I'm a pussy
That sounded show the video
Hello
All right, I'm here
No, you're not
I
I
I
Okay
But that sound that I made
That's a good setup though. Yeah, but did you hear did you guys hear sound on that?
I can hear it on mine. We have to edit it in. Um, I I I want to say one thing before we continue
Is this on are we are we on George?
Um, I'm writing to trim this. Okay. No, no, I want this to be on. Um, go ahead. I've wanted it. Okay, so
God this is gonna I don't know how to word this in a way that's um a little bit kinder, but
um
I I really regret having ed on last week
I mean like the the truth is it's like while I'm very thankful for everyone's time to like come on the show
Um, he kind of big-timed you a little bit
Well, what I didn't like is that he didn't even realize that he was supposed to be on our show. No, no, no
I think he did but no, I think he looked at me was like, oh, it's you almost like
Oh, I didn't know, you know that kind of a thing
and then um
I just don't like it
Listen
I'm very happy for you big ed and the success, but
Listen to this
The time is ticking, you know, so don't talk to me as if we're on the same, you know what I mean
You know, I mean, that's not why I dislike him though, but that's how that's how we'll cut that out then
We'll cut this part out
No, we don't have to cut because it sounds like I'm like being big time
I'm not big timing and he's like human but he's a great guy. He's from San Diego
No, but I I realized something because he was talking about
Um, you know having been bullied a lot when he was younger and I truly like empathize with that
But it all falls into the the the triangle of abuse where the victim then becomes the perpetrator
Because I was I watched the last three episodes, which I hadn't watched previous to last week
I should have watched the last three episodes because
Truly if you watch his interactions with poor rose
He really at every given opportunity. He makes her feel small and dirty
It is such in a very manipulative way like where he packages his his words
Um
In in a way that kind of you might be able to kind of like uh feel like in like oh, he's that's so endearing
But at every step of the way, you know, he he really does put her down and it
It's fucking I maybe I have a soft spot because she's Filipino and I just know
I don't know what it was, but that shit fucking really
Left a bad taste in my mouth. So I also should have asked questions like hey
Who gives a fuck if her sister asks for a little bit money because she's struggling
We couldn't because of the tlc publicist. I know but who gives a fuck
It's like, you know, if if coin to ask me for 50 bucks or whatever. I wouldn't go. I don't give a fuck
I would send the money
You know, it's like I'm trying to woo this girl. I'm gonna do anything. I can't know
But what I think that he wanted to do was let everyone know he wanted to he thought he was the prize
Yeah, Ed really thought that breath smells look at your head. Fuck her
You put mayonnaise on your fucking head. I know but she's explained to him. She's like look I brush my teeth
She's an ulcer or something ulcer, baby
Oh
There's just so many things about him. It's like maybe we can get a second go at him. George. No, I don't want no
No, no, no, no, no. I don't want to know. In fact, we have to have a discussion if we want to even have guests
What the fuck, you know what every time we give like a very like
Controversial opinion you and I look how quiet Gilbert is he doesn't want. Yeah, he doesn't want to put his fucking opinion
I'm gonna inject your opinion
I want to have rose on that would be great
I want to have roses so people because we want to defend the fucking broken
Well, because people only have one perspective of what they've seen on tv
And he's able to because he's being paraded by tlc where rose is not
So that's where I feel like a platform like this is good for the other side of the story to really say what happened
Because we're only getting one side
Yeah, yep, I think rose is a really nice young girl and she needs to
um
She needs to be celebrated way more than that guy
Okay, so is lauren in or doing it out of her house? Yep. Okay. Good. You let you want to just get to it?
Yeah, let's get to it. Sure. I'll put her on there. She is
Hi
How you doing? Let me let me introduce you before um
We get going. Okay. Okay. It's it's really good to see you by the way
You too. Yeah
What Mike does. Mm-hmm. Is he is he in the house? No, he's on his bike far away from me, right? Oh
Fuck I love that guy. Anyway, hi lauren. I'm kalayla. All right. It's my girlfriend. I hurt you so much. I feel like I know you
Oh
So, um, let me introduce her. Um, so, um
Uh, about seven months ago. I um, I was in a movie at one line. Um, I played a hotel
for
And um, the movie is called the wrong missy and the reason why I did it was um
My dear friend david spade just said come on. Just do the line
And I you know what? I let me say this. I was a little bummed about at first because I had one line
But there's two things that happened from it that um was fascinating to me. It was a good thing. Number one was
um, I got to good do
Four magnum pis because I went and did it because I met the producer and then secondly
I met lauren lapkiss now lauren lapkiss like I you know, I knew I knew who she was
and I knew she was very funny and talented but
by when I was watched because the scenes that I was in she was in as well and um
I'm telling you right now. She reminds me of you remind me of because you're in the room. I don't I don't know why I'm I talking
You
Honestly, you remind me of like a stephanie weir like that level of of funny like you are so
Good and I was just sitting there going. Oh my god watching you play and you're amazing in the movie
You're such a talented lady. Give her a round of applause lauren lapkiss everybody
Thank you. Oh my god, stephanie weir is like the highest compliment. She's so funny. Yeah, and I don't you know, I generally um
With people that don't know that well, I generally don't um, I wouldn't say that about it
But for you, I I would give that to you because you were not only that though
What I was amazing to me was you're able to um take risks and improvise in front of adam sandler. Were you intimidated at all?
Yeah, oh my god. Yeah. Well, I mean I have always loved adam. I like my whole life
He's been like on my list of like top five people. I think are the funniest people so
Yeah, I was definitely intimidated
But I also just like it's one of those things too. You're like, okay
I just want to do a good job because this person is here and so I feel like it kind of like motivates you in a way
Sometimes when you're intimidated
Wow, you know, it it reminds me of you know people
Well, I always say that the most successful people are the people that can perform under pressure and you definitely
Showed that was amazing. Oh, thanks. I mean that whole the whole experience
I think doing this movie was like performing under pressure because it's such a crazy character
Yeah, and the stakes are so high and like every scene that
Just like have to go forward or doesn't yeah
Yeah, I loved doing your scene when you were the hotel clerk
It was so funny because laura was there when like I had one line and then I hear cut and then adam would give me like
Notes on that one line. It was freaking me out, but
Don't you think it's worse when you have one line?
Like I do so much worse when I have one line because I feel like
I can't remember it like I don't even know like it's like it's so hard
Yeah, because you also you only have one thing to say so you focus everything on that one thing to say and then
And then when the dialogue has happened other people are talking you think yourself
My my churn's coming up my only my only turn and then when it comes out it comes out all fucked up
Yeah
It's weird because we're all sitting around between takes and then like, you know, adam's such a nice guy
He would walk by in his shorts, but every time he would walk by I go. Holy fuck. There's adam sandler. It was a real like
pretty cool, you know
Situation did you know him?
Yeah, I mean I had met him before but I'd never really worked with him
I I just I auditioned for his earlier movies back when I was on mad tv and stuff
but um
No, I've always wanted to be around him because he's just one of those like
You know one of the top comedy guys. Oh my god. Yeah
Yeah, I had I had like a couple lines in an adam sandler movie years ago called blended
That was the movie he did with drew Barrymore. Oh, yeah
And I got to meet him and it was like amazing like and he and I remember he was like you're goofy kid
And I was like, I'll never forget that he said I was
Yeah, yeah
What was it like?
How about spain? What a nice guy he is. Oh my god. He's like the nicest. Are you guys old friends?
No, it's weird. No, david and I um
I don't know what happened, but when he started playing the comedy store
You know, he would say hi to me. I didn't really know him, but the one day he just called me goes. Let's go have dinner
And I go, all right, I met him for dinner and then ever since then we've been like best of buds, but like he's
Really one of the nicest guys I've ever met, huh?
Yes, he really is and I was so happy that he was because he's also one of those people where I've always thought he's the funniest person
And then like I there's just that fear that you're gonna meet them and they're gonna be an asshole and you'll be disappointed or something
Yeah, he just was so cool and so easy to hang out with but I had to tell you something. Yeah, you know art and marine
obviously
She's one of my best friends
And she tells a story about how you like told her how she has to go out and do stand-up
And you like told her how it works and everything and gave her like showed her the ropes so she could like learn how to get out
There and do it. I think that's the coolest thing. That was so nice of you. Well, no for me. It's um, I want the survival of mad TV people
I I I I'm you know, they're like, um
It's like a fraternity or something or yeah, or yeah, and I want and you know
SNL is such a big, you know monster of a of an entity
And you know, we were obviously not that but so when we left the show a lot of us
Had to struggle and we you know, I you know, I just wanted to help anyone from well
I thought it was so cool because like just the fact that I mean, she's so funny and she's in my opinion
Like she's someone who'll just work no matter what but
You showed her how to like make money on the road and something that she might not have started doing and it's not every day that
Like comedians help each other in that way to explain how it works because yeah, so much of it is just figuring it out by yourself
Yeah, I know, but you know, Lauren, I hate compliments. So, you know, you can't take it. You can't take it. It's fine. I can't do it. I just
I didn't want to I didn't want to let it go with you totally diffusing it. I had to like say it again. So
Well, then let me give you a compliment. What do you think? I can take it. All right. All right
So here's another um thing that I wanted to say about because Arden's a good example of and you guys are similar in the sense that
I think in this new age of the entertainment business, um, you have to kind of be able to do everything
Right? So Lauren, you can do live shows. You can do podcasting. You can probably do a panel show
You can do but you can act as well, you know, and I just think that Arden's the same way
I mean you guys are just
Intrinsically good in every situation. So that's you know, that's very nice. I think Arden is somebody who I'm so happy I became friends with because she
She's can you hear my dog? Is that super nice? Can you hear ours? No, I can't. My dog barks at every single person who's ever walked by
but um
Arden like taught me has taught me so much just in our friendship about like the business
Like it's one of those things where I just feel like I you have to figure so much out by yourself
And there there's such a learning curve and she like explains so much to me
Like she took me to like a red carpet thing where like it was just like a movie premiere. So let's just go and you just like go and
Get your picture taken and hang out and go for free. I'm like, oh, I didn't know you could do that
Like just these things that no one tells you, you know
Yeah, nobody tells you how to do any of that shit, huh?
No, no, nothing. I mean, I feel that way about every single thing
Red carpets are the worst, right? The worst. They're so uncomfortable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's so uncomfortable
I hate it when the photographer is like, who are you? I've had so many like I was on a show
No, oh my god. Yes, I hate that. I hate it. Oh, when you're in the thing and they're like, who's that?
Or they don't want to take a picture of you
Yeah, it's it's your soul dies when that happens
It's brutal because you're like, why do I even want them to take the picture of me like they don't even want to
Like it's all very it's a bad cycle
You and then you learn like, oh, you kind of need a publicist for someone who like walks you down the thing and says your name and holds it up
And like they do that weird part for you so you can just walk in but no one tells you
Yeah, but you know what? Here's the thing though if there's two worlds, okay?
And I think that as a as a comedian actor, you have to be able to, you know, survive in both worlds
One world is going out with social media, YouTube, podcasting and trying to find a fan base, you know, on street level
But then there's the Hollywood side that has no idea about that side
So it's like when I want to put red carpet, you know, and they go, who are you?
I want to say, yeah, I'm more popular than the guy you just took photos of because I built a fucking audience for 20 fucking years
You know, it's so frustrating
And it feels so demoralizing and you're like, I'm somebody please like care about me but then it's like why don't I care if that guy doesn't care about me
So Bobby has this complex, well, it's not really a complex but now he's one of those guys that if the cashier at Walmart says, hey dude, you look familiar, he doesn't let it go
He googles his name on the phone to show the guy his credit
No, I don't do that, I don't do that, I don't do that
I don't do that?
Yeah, IMDb
I don't do that
Wait, where is she, where is she getting this stuff?
No, wait, I don't, wait, first of all, let me just say something, all right, that's fucking fucked up, all right
I did that one time, I did it one time
And Joshua Tree, remember at the Walgreens or Walmart there?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Or shit enough, this is gonna create a fight
So, I'll do, I did it, I've done it a couple times when, number one
So you did do it?
Yeah, but I'll tell you, I don't just blatantly do it, it's this, how do I know you?
I don't know, and they go, they'll start throwing out movies that I wasn't in
This is my life too, yeah
Then they think that I'm, I know that they think I'm Ken Jeong, right?
They think I'm Chelsea Peretti, so I'm okay
Wow, see, that's all
So it gets to a point, right, in the conversations where like, I'll say, no, I was on Matt TV
And they'll go, no, you were in the hangover, right?
They'll say, no, you were in the hangover too, and I'll go, I wasn't
And they go, yeah, you are, you're that guy
I have to Google it, I have to Google it and go, listen, that's not me
I actually really, I think you're right to do that in that situation because those people can be so annoying
And they're telling you who you are, you're like, I know I'm not that
Like, why do I have to tell you, I'm not who you're saying
And people, and they don't want to hear it, they want to stick on it
Like, no, but you were also on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, I'm like, no, but I was not
It's like so annoying
I know where I've been, bitch, you don't mean that's what I was saying
I know, but you know what I think is so weird about that
And I think, I mean, it happens to a lot of people who are known
That they get mistaken for another known person, but I'm like
So, you know who I am, but you have it wrong
Sometimes I just, I don't act at all and I'm just a lady at Target
So you know it, but you get the wrong person
So I don't get that part of it
Yeah
These together half of the puzzle that you do know who I am somehow
Yeah
And then you think of someone I look like and you're like, man, that's it
But there are, I have had Asian dudes or like regular dudes that I've said
That people thought that they were really
Really? Okay, so it's like maybe
Maybe, yeah
And then the second time I did it was
I was, I'm on this game show and the first day of shooting
What's that?
It's a game show called Game On, it comes, I'm terrible on it
I like game shows, I want to know
Please don't watch it, it's okay
Please watch it
Yeah, so I was on this game show and I was at the Radford lot
And I had, I was like a little late
So I'm at the gate and they're like, so
Where's your idea, I forgot my idea, I don't want to go home
And they go, my name is Bobby Lee, I'm on the list
And they go, all right, you're on the list but we need an ID
And I go, yeah, but there's only, like if I'm the number one Bobby Lee in the world
Can you Google it and look at it
Right, so I Googled Bobby Lee and I showed it to them, right
And they go, all right, you're right, you are the number one Bobby Lee in the world
And so, but then every day for two weeks
Every time I would drive by that fucking little station
They would all yell out, number one
That's not right
Number one
And I would blush and just wave like, I'm a loser
Yeah, I want to talk about one last thing with you
Is that, you know, some people think that Klylin are a power couple
But I did a movie, a Pauly Shore movie
That's where I'm killing it
And the star, aside from Pauly from the other movie that I did
Was a gentleman by the name of Mike Castle
Mike Castle is your husband, is he not?
Yes, yes he is, I want to see this movie
When is that movie coming out?
It looks so fine, I'm so excited
Yeah, it's at the bottom barrel of a woman somewhere in the Midwest
Well, I'll go buy it there, I just want to watch it
I mean, I'm so excited, Mike is killing it
He's on a Netflix show right now called Bruce Brothers
That he's the lead out, so he's like, he's making it happen
Oh yeah, he is, you know what I love about him
Is, I know he's not there, but
He has a Tom Hanks-y likeability about him
Do you understand what I'm saying?
Yes, and I've always loved Tom Hanks, but I didn't really put it together
And then people said that Mike looks like Woody from Toy Story
Oh yeah, that's what it is, I think
And he does, and then Tom Hanks voices that, so it kind of like goes together
But he does have that Tom Hanks quality of like, he's charming and funny
But he's still cute, you know
Yeah, Lauren, do you have a podcast, right?
I have about 30, but yes
Yeah, I know
So many
My podcast that you're close to right now, Newcomers
It's me and Nicole Byer, and we watched Star Wars for the first time in its entirety
It's been insane, and you can hear us talk about it
We have comedians on who care about Star Wars
And they kind of tell us the backstory and we explain what we did and did not like
And, you know, we're seeing it for the first time
Had you never seen Star Wars before?
No, no, not, neither had she, we didn't know anything
Wow
So, it's been very fascinating
Where are you at with the movie? You saw all of them?
I've seen them all, and now we're watching like side stuff
Like we're going to watch Mandalorian and all that stuff
Let me ask you something, out of all the Star Wars movies
Would you rank the top three?
Yes, my top three are
Wait, which one has Ewoks?
The third one, Return of the Jedi
Okay, Return of the Jedi
Empire Strikes Back
That's two
The Rise of Skywalker
Oh
Was that the third one?
That's the new one
Oh, interesting
Ooh, interesting
You like that one
Because they have a female protagonist and they have like a romance
There was like a lot more stuff that appeals to me
Ah
Yeah
Which one's the worst one?
The first one
You mean A New Hope?
I think Episode One
I think she means Episode One
That's not true
I did mean A New Hope, but I do mean Episode One
Episode One, yeah
I meant A New Hope because I thought that one was really long
It doesn't mean anything you think is going to happen
Like Yoda and stuff doesn't happen in it
Oh, I think I get it
Then the one with the Phantom Menace
Some of those were really rough
It was too much CGI
I like when they're more puppets
Yeah, it was rough
I have a question for you
Can you tell me about your hair?
Because I've been following the hair journey
And I might have missed where you explained the hair
Okay, well, let's go historically with me then
Let's go historically with our people, okay?
So historically with our people, right?
And I mean Asians
Okay
There was only a couple of things one would do
One would do a shaved look like a monk
Some monks would shave their head
So that's one look
And number two, they would do a Justin Bieber kind of a thing
Like the mushroom cut
A billion Chinese people have that
Wait, historically?
Historically accurate
That's not true, babe
The new one, that's not historical
That's what's in right now
The trendy sort of
The bull cuts
But they're a little bit more stylized bull cuts
That's what's in right now
But they've been doing that for fucking a thousand years
Yeah, but it's a little bit more stylized
Great Lauren, they're fighting now, thanks a lot
I love this
What about your hair cut?
I thought it was fake at first
Because your hair is so thick and full
Like you have really good hair
Oh, thank you so much for saying that
Thank you
And I did the mullet because not a lot of guys
That look like me have it
I like it
And also, I wanted to piss the ovaun off a little bit
You know
Did it work?
Yeah, you got really angry
So do you want to talk about the movie real quick
About what it's about or when it comes out, let's do that
Yeah, so the movie is called The Wrong Missy
The premise of the movie is that David Spade goes on two dates
One is with Molly Sims, who's literally a supermodel
And her name is Missy and she's very hot
And then the other date is with me
And I play a psychopath named Missy
Who is the worst date you could ever end up on
And then he's going on a corporate retreat
And Nick Swartzman's character tells him to invite Missy
The hot one
And he invites me
And it's just a nightmare
Yes, he texts the wrong Missy
What was it like working with Nicky and those guys?
Oh my god, it was so fun
He's the best
He's so funny, he makes me laugh so much
He is hilarious
As a matter of fact, he's waiting in the zoo lobby
He just signed off
So I'm trying to see if we can get him back again
It would have been the perfect segue
I know, I was planning
So Laura, shut the fuck up everyone
Laura, shut the fuck up
Laura, when does the movie come out?
May 13th, so it's like whatever
Tomorrow, whatever day you're listening to this
Or it's already out
Yeah, so here's what I, listen
When the quarantine's over, I would love to do more podcasting with you
Because I'm a Star Wars fan as well
Maybe, you know, me, I could do that one
Oh my god
I'm trying to invite myself into your world as well
You should, you should
Can I plug my Patreon?
I have a Patreon that I'm doing at home
Yes, yes
It's patreon.com slash laurenlapkiss
And I'm doing like improv podcasts
And Mike and I are doing Watch Alongs
Where you can sync us up with a movie or a TV show
And we talk over the whole thing and comment on it
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We've been having a lot of fun doing those
So it's a good way to feel like you have friends over during the quarantine
Oh hi
Look at how angry you are
Are you angry?
Are you so angry?
Why are you so angry, Nick?
Who?
You
I'm not
Your skin looks really good
Look how cute you are
I'm adorable
His skin looks so tan and golden
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Alright, so um, now
Alright
Good, stay on, can Lauren stay on?
I guess you have for a minute
But I don't want to cut him next time
Alright, alright
I don't give a fuck
Well then let's give Lauren a round of applause
Thank you, Lauren
We love you so much
You look great
Thank you
This was very fun
I'm leaving
Now it's your turn, fuckface
Alright, have fun
That was very fun
Thanks for having me, Bobby
Love you, Lauren
See you guys, that was very fun
Bye, Lauren
What the fuck?
I tried to get in earlier
I know
Because fucking Lauren went on for a little longer
That's all, fuck not
Why wouldn't we be on at the same time?
Because I want to do individual ones, fuck tired
Eat me up, Bobby
I want to introduce you first, alright
So um, ladies and gentlemen
Shut the fuck up
Ladies and gentlemen
You know, I started comedy
In the late, in the late 90s
And when I came to LA
You know, I would run into this guy
You know, really nice guy
But he was so funny
He's so funny
Even as a young stand-up
He was so good
And I don't know why
But we've always gotten along
We've always, whenever I see this guy
We grab each other's assholes
Right, do we not?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We'll rub each other's clits
It's not even a question
Yeah, it usually happens at the improv, right?
Yeah, but I mean, back in the day though
It was like everywhere
It would just be the random rooms
Yeah, yeah, yeah
All that shit, I've always loved you, Bobby
It's so funny when we say that we started in the 90s
Like when you get back
It's so fucking weird
It's fucking crazy
But um, and I'm gonna say this
Another compliment for you about
Like when Harold and Kumar came out
You were the only comic to call me
To tell me that I did a good job
Do you remember that? Probably not
Yeah, I do, it's like, give a fuck
Yeah, I mean that's, I remember that distinctly going
Oh, what a nice guy
No one else ever called me about it
You know what I mean? Yeah
And when comics do that
It's like, it's such a fucking rare thing
So let's give Nick Swartz
A round of applause everybody
Hi Nick, I'm Kalayla
I'm Bobby's girlfriend
This is my girlfriend Kalayla
Hi Kalayla, how are you?
Good, how are you?
Did you win the most patient girlfriend in the world award?
Fuck you, man
Fuck you, Bobby
I'm difficult to live with, I know
It's very difficult
No, you're not, you're a sweetheart
Oh, thank you buddy
I just want to remember the fucking old days
God, what a tornado that used to be
I know
You know what's great is we survived it all
I know
I always talk about that
I've barely survived
But yeah, it's funny when you look back
And then people go, oh Jesus
And then I'm like, I'm 43 now
And I'm like, oh my god, how the fuck did I make it to this far?
I never thought I would
I was like, there's no way I'm gonna see you
I would talk when I saw 30
I was like, all right
Yeah
Because you know, you're a wild guy
You like to have fun at nights, no?
Yeah, I mean, I would go through just, you know, shit where
It was just a blast
You don't realize as a comic
I didn't go to college
I started to stand up right out of high school
I was 19
So I didn't have any school
So I grew up in clubs
That's what I did
Yeah
So that was my, you know
My teachers were fucking old road comics
Yeah
All these dudes are fucking loose cannons
So, you know, I would go through phases of, you know
I'd focus and work
And then when I wasn't
I was just like, game fucking on
Yeah
And when I look back
I don't look back at like, god man
I remember when I was sober for six months
It was so fun
Every memory I'm like, god
I remember when I pissed myself in Chicago
I remember when I was fucking
Every story about the crazy times I always like miss
It makes me go like, oh
I mean, I remember
I don't know if you'd ever do this
I would do a gig
And I would just stay
So I would do
I did one show one time in Miami
One fucking show
And I stayed for a month
A fucking month
Yeah
That would happen all the time
Yeah
And my age would be like
Hey, what's up man
Where are you?
I'm like
It's like, you're not still in South Beach
Are you?
Yeah
And then I would have my openers
Who are always my friends
I'm like, let's just stay
So one time in South Beach
We fucking just kept staying
And weeks would go by
And my opener Patrick Keen
Was really funny
Love him
And he was like, are we
Like, are we leaving?
And I'm like, I don't know who cares
And he goes, well, I
I mean, I have a life
Yeah
And I'm like, I know
But like, what if we just do this
And he's like, well, yeah
I'm not fucking in your pan
Running around with an AmEx car
Being like
So, you know
But it was so fun
Yeah
You look good though, buddy
What have you been doing different
Exercising?
Yeah, I've actually been lifting things
That I wouldn't normally lift
And putting them over my head
Multiple times
Are you really going to the gym and shit?
No, I just like
Do a simple workout
And then I've always eaten pretty well
So I'm just staying on the diet
And I haven't drank for eight months
What?
Well, yeah, I mean, which you know
I'm almost fucking dying
I mean, I know
I didn't want to bring that up
I didn't want to bring that up
Yeah, I almost did
But since you fucking did, right
So
You were so sweet when I saw you afterwards
You were like, you really looked horrified
That I almost died
You know, here's the thing though
Okay
Is there's
Because I love you so fucking much
When you hear
So you were in Colorado, correct?
Yeah, I had gone
I just kind of been like, fuck it
So I had this summer off from filming
I had like a couple shows and stuff
So I basically was like
I'm just going to drink
So I drink every day
Because all I really wanted to do was just drink
And watch sports
And like, I never had any of that
I could just do that
So I just was like, I'm just going to do it
So I did, every day I just drank
I'm a huge sports fan
So I just watched games
And just traveled
It was super fun
But I just did it so much
And drank myself into a wall
And anybody who drinks a lot knows that
Once you get into that wall
Like, now you
Now you have to drink to just maintain
And then I just
It hit like the biggest wall ever
And I went to Colorado
And I just
My system completely shut down
Completely
I've never seen anything like that before
And then you were
Did you like black out
And just end up in a fucking ICU somewhere?
No, I landed in Denver
And I had cocktails on the plane
But I kept vomiting
And I was like, oh, it's not that weird
And then
And then when I landed in Colorado
I just drank at the airport
And I kept vomiting
And I'm like, something's wrong
And I tried to eat
And it wouldn't work
And so I realized
You know, you can tell
Your body like gives you a heads up
Where it's like, okay
This isn't a hangover
And I literally called my agent
I was like, hey, something is wrong
And I went
And I looked up
Like this kind of medical place
Not a hospital
But it was like a
Just a checkup
What I came over called
And so I went
It only had one star
In their Yelp review
And I was like, oh
I swear to God
So I was like, well, clearly
They don't care about caring
Was it like an urgent care?
Yeah, it was an urgent care
Yeah
It had one star
I was like, all right
Well, I've rolled the dice this month
So I went
And they took one look at me
I didn't even fucking say anything
I was like, hey, what's going on?
And they were like, oh, you need a
You need an ambulance
And I was like, nah, I'm good
And they were like, no
And they took me to an ER
And the dude was like, I love grandma's boy
I'm like, cool, man
And then I'm like
He did more things
And he was like, yeah, probably
And they took me to the ER
And they were like, holy fuck
Just stop looking at me
And then I was hooked up to tubes
I was in the ER for three weeks
And they were like people
They go, people with quadruple bypasses
Are usually out in like three days
And I'd stay for three weeks
It was fucking nuts
I know, but
Was it like topsy-turvy?
Like were they like
You're not going to make it at times
Wait, were you, were you lucid?
Or were you like, were you, did they have
Did they have you like intubated?
Or did they put a tube down your throat?
I was out for probably half of it
So I was there for three weeks
I was probably completely gone for a week and a half
Which none of this is funny
I know I'm making life
This is what I want to talk about
I'm just making life
But it wasn't
It was fucking life changing
It was super bizarre
Terrible
I mean, we almost lost you then
And it was pretty wild
Because, you know
As long as I've been in comedy
And it's the same with you
How many people we've lost
I mean, it's just awful
Anytime a comic dies, it's just awful
So it was pretty, it was pretty crazy
Oh my god, that would have been
Fucking a life change
That would have been so fucking terrible
So then when you got out after three weeks
I mean, when you were lucid and stuff
Did you think to yourself
I'm done drinking for a while or what?
Yeah, I was like
I should probably stop, you know
I don't know what's going to happen in the future
Saying that is so reckless
People are like, fuck you
But I don't plan on drinking
I've been drinking for eight months
It's not a problem at all
Am I going to have a fucking Jaeger bomb
When I'm 80? I don't know
Yeah
You know, I relapsed in August
After 17 years of sobriety
Who did?
I did
Oh, did you really?
Yeah, so I had 17 years and I relapsed in August
But now I'm sober again, but um
At what capacity did you relapse? With pills?
Well, I mean, no, not pills
For me, I just, you know
Mine was tied in with my dad's death and trauma
And all that stuff
So I was going through a lot of emotional shit too
But I was just smoking weed 24 hours a day
But then I was shooting shit
And it was terrible, you know what I mean
You know, I was just completely clueless
And she almost laughed at me
It was terrible
How long did that go on for?
I had gone out for probably, what, two or three months
Yeah, and it was weird, Nick
Because usually someone who just smokes weed
He was acting like a junkie
He was acting like this was, um
This was meth
He would line our chimney with just weed paraphernalia
And I kept telling him, like, look, it's just
It's weed, it's not
But I knew that that was probably
Just one step before something else
Because he was already acting strangely
Even though it was just marijuana
Like it was just around the bend for him
Yeah, now also, like, I would spend like
A thousand dollars
I mean, I was acting like it was like crack
Like, I would go to every dispensary in LA
You know what I mean?
And buy just a thousand dollars worth of weed
And then hide it in the house
As if it was illegal or something like that
I was acting crazy, you know what I mean?
You know, people will give you weed
I know, I know
I know
But you don't do it
It's not like to have it
I know
That's what I was telling him to do
And it had like an adverse reaction
Where people who usually smoke weed
Are, you know, they're calmer
He was acting like a fucking crack head
He wouldn't, he would only sleep two hours a night
It had a complete opposite reaction
It was like he just, he had just been doing cocaine all day
Yeah, I would like suck dudes' dicks in the alleyways
You know what I mean?
I was like, look at him
Just like crack behavior, I mean
Picking scabs off my body, you know what I mean?
Bobby was so high he wasn't showing his penis
Yeah, how many times have you seen my dick?
How many times have you seen my dick, you think?
78
I have a chart
Yeah
You know what's fascinating about you two is that
Even though during your, you know
Your crazy parting and all that kind of stuff
You know, you still had so many comics
That just adored you and loved you
And wanted to take care of you and
I'm just glad
Yeah, I mean you have, even like Sandler
Loves you so fucking much
And you know, you have always tried to
Get me into his world as well
One time when he was shooting
When they were doing that Zohan movie
You brought Adam out to see me do stand-ups
Just to try to get me apart in his movie
I remember that too, so thank you for that
Yeah, I'm trying to help people out
It's tricky because Adam uses some of the same people
So it's hard to break people in
So do you want to talk about the wrong Missy?
No, I'm good
No, I will in a second
It's funny because I always think that
Everybody's just lived an insanely loose canon life
So I find myself in conversations with people
Where I'm like, yeah, it's like
If you do fucking too much coke
I got a bender, you know what I mean?
And they're like, no, what are you talking about?
I'm like, you know, how many do you like?
Too much coke, you know what I mean?
It's like, ugh!
And they're like, no, I don't know what you're talking about
I'm like, oh right, right, right, right
Yeah
I was never a big drug dude
That was always kind of different for me
I mean, I would try it, sometimes I would dabble
But for me it was just fucking booze
But you also had like a casual
It was almost as if it was a casual routine for you
Like you would sometimes
Remember Charlie and Finn and I used to run into you
At that fucking barbecue place on Santa Monica Boulevard?
Yeah
So you'd just be with friends at the bar
Watching sports, drinking
Or you would go to Barney's Beanery, right?
A lot
Yeah, I would go there back in the day
The thing with me was very bizarre
Because I'd gone to AA meetings
And it was very different for me
If I don't want to drink, I just don't drink
And I never drank home
Like by myself
Like I heard a lot of comics talk about that
It was always in a social environment
Having fun
Until I just urinated myself
Yeah, yeah
I would never drink and drive
It was bizarre how
Responsibly reckless I was
Yeah
What would you do, have people just pick you up
And drive you to these places?
I would walk
Uber was, that was just a game changer
Yeah
Fucking do whatever
Yeah, yeah
It was just magic
Just fucking get into a magic car
And then just wake up
Hopefully that were
The type of friends where
If you wanted to drink again
You would call me first, maybe
Would you do that?
Yeah
Because I'm sober now too
I just
Don't want you to go back out there
You know, I just don't want you to
You know, I mean, slip into that same
Fucking
Yeah, I mean, I cannot foresee
Anything like what I did before
Because when I did it, it was very
Conscious, you know what I mean?
Oh, right, right
It wasn't that I went off the rails
In terms of like, oh, I'm gonna
You know, I didn't lose myself
I was like, no, I'm gonna fucking
Take this summer
And I'm gonna drink my tips up
And then I got slammed with
Suicide, a death in the family
And that's when things will
Really derail
Yeah
You know, your mindset, if you're in it
If you're already in that mindset
And then all of a sudden
Like you were talking about
When a tragedy hits
That's when it
I was just
Destroyed by a friend's
Suicide and my sister-in-law's death
Oh, wow
That was brutal
And then that brought up Brody's death
Oh, wow, yeah
And then everything, it just snowballed
And then it kind of
That's when it really took a turn
So, you know, you have to
Really be careful, you know
When people try to drink through
You know, that kind of state
It's really, really dangerous
Yeah, that day
I remember that day
When Brody died
When I found out
That was a brutal
Fucking day, man
Yeah, it was fucking awful
It was so awful
It was so sudden
It wasn't as if it was like somebody that
You know, we knew that had cancer
Yeah
Drinking problem
Whatever it might have been
You know what I mean
It was just out of nowhere
Because I had seen him
A week before that
You know, it just out of nowhere
I get the call
That he's gone
And it was so
Remember, you told me
I was in bed taking a nap
And she goes
She just whispers
Dabi, Brody's dead
And I was
And I heard it while I was sleeping
And then I remember
What did I say?
I go
What did I say?
Why am I not crying?
And then she goes
You will once you wake up
And as soon as I woke up
As soon as I woke up
I mean, it was right?
It was terrible
Why don't you just wake him up?
What the fuck?
Are you the tragedy whisperer?
Brody's dead
It was in the dark too
Brody's dead
Brody's dead
She's the tragedy whisperer
Yeah, I mean
You should know what we up, lady
What the fuck?
I did
I know
By doing it that way, yeah
That is weird
What a brutal day
You were close with Brody, right?
We were pretty close
Yeah, I don't know
Long, long time
I mean, I had stepped in
With a couple people
When Brody was
That like loose cannon patch
Where he was off the rent
Oh, yeah
And he was on social media
And he was mentally just a disaster
And Dave Rath called me
And Zach and
You know, we reached out to Brody
And we were like, hey, man
What's going on?
Like, what do you need?
You know, just
And then after that
He had kind of worked through it
And, you know
We thought we had gotten through it
And we, you know, we did
It was fine for a long time
Yeah
Well, he got back on his meds, right?
That's what happened, right?
Yeah
He was off his meds
And then we got back on, yeah
But
Yeah
Yeah, it was fucking
Fucking terrible, man
But so that's why
I found out about deaths
When I was filming
There was two times
When I was filming
Grandma's Boy
I was in my dressing room
And changing
And I get a call from Dave Rath
And
All he said was
Did you hear about Mitch
And I immediately
Lost it
Sobbing
And obviously Mitch Hedberg
And I, you know
That was one of those things where
It was just a call that
You know, he went up and down
But it was fucking awful
And just complete breakdown
And that's one of the hardest ones I've ever done
Because that was one of the first ones
Somebody I knew well
And, you know
And then you have to go and fucking be an actor
Fucking
I know
I know
And then this one
I don't know if you remember that
I'm sure you do
I was on the set of Bucky Larson
You don't have to remember the movie
But I was on the set of Bucky Larson
And I got a call
That, you remember Michael Roof
Yes
Michael Roof
Oh, chicken, chicken
Chicken
Yes
And he fucking killed himself
And I, Michael and I were friends
And I fucking lost it
And this was right before I had to film
And I'm in a wig and buck teeth
Wow
And I'm like sobbing
And I walk up to the set
And they're like, whoa, are you okay?
And I'm like, my friend just fucking killed himself
And they're like
They're like, okay, we'll give you ten minutes
But we have to, we
It's literally what they said
And I called Frank Kelly, you know
And then I was like, he had to go to the set
In a wig, buck teeth
And I go, what scene is it?
And they're like, you're holding the pig
And you have a lollipop
And you're all happy
So
I'll never forget how
Fucking weird that was
Yeah
Aside my friend's suicide
With my
Every time I see the movie
I'm like, oh my god
Yeah
Fucking weird
Hey guys
What I realize now is that
Number one, why the fuck have you not done this podcast before?
And number two
When this pandemic is over
We gotta get you into the studio to do it
Because I want to do a full fucking hour with you
Because you're so funny
And we're friends
It's ridiculous
I would love that
It's fucking ridiculous
You ever asked me to do it?
Yeah, I just didn't know where you were
It's like, I covet what I see
Like Buffalo Bill from
Silence of the Lambs
I covet what I see
Don't ever compare yourself to that guy
It seems like a weird person
To follow yourself after
Yeah
Alright, so
Oh my god, and Bobby
We were in Denver at the beginning of the pandemic
We were
That was insane
I remember you were at the comedy works
Yeah
I was at a Colorado Springs
And I was like, oh, holy shit
I go, Bobby
And you were
I'm like, are you worried
Because I was canceling my shows
And you were like, fuck it
I'm gonna do it
Dude, I'm adding more shows
And I'm like, that seems reckless
But okay
I know, bud
And when I call you
And I'm like, where are you?
You're like, I'm on a plane
I know
It got crazy quick, bro
Yeah, I was there
I'm on Earth too
Yeah, I know
But it's like
One minute I'm like
My agent
Shut the fuck up
One minute my agent's like
You're fine
Go out there
Do the weekend
You sold out whatever
So I'm there, positive
Literally in six hours
We gotta get the fuck out of here
Yeah
That's how crazy it was
That's, it was insane
Because I had two shows
Colorado Springs
And I was supposed to go to Wise Guys
And Salt Lake
And all of a sudden
Like you said it hit
And I'm like, ugh
So I did my first show
In Colorado Springs
And I was a little hesitant
And then I'm sitting there
About to go on stage
But for that show
And it was like NBA canceled
And then all of a sudden
All the stuff started coming in
And then I panicked
And I canceled the other show
And I told them to keep my money
Whatever, that didn't get paid
I was like, just keep it
And stuff and shit
And then Salt Lake
I was really on the fence
Cause Wise Guys
Phenomenal club
I love that club
And I had to cancel them
When I died
Before I, when I was died
And so
My friend killed himself
So I felt horrible
And but they declared
A national state of emergency
And I was like
Fuck, you know
As much as I wanted to do it
It was such a great area
So I didn't want to be that guy
To bring people out
And then, you know
Nobody knew what was really happening
When I saw a state of emergency
I'm like, well I'm not going
To fuck with that
And there was a close call to
For him because he went
And remember I have a friend
In Denver
And she went to his green room
To drop off a few things for me
And then she fucking hung out
And then she hung out
In the green room
And then two days later
She was sick
And she had COVID for two weeks
No way
But you didn't hug her, right?
I don't, I like her
So I didn't even touch her
Oh, come on
No, I like her
She's fine
I love her
I love her, I mean
Great
But she came in
We were already paranoid
It was like, you know
I said, don't hug her
I said to Kevin Christie
You know Kevin Christie
Yeah
Right?
He was my opener
I go, don't hug her
And then I go
Stand back
And she just stood there
For like 30 minutes
And then I go
All right, you got to go
And she left
Luckily, you know what I mean
She didn't hang out all night
Yeah
I love her though
You're listening
I love you and thank you
I'm glad you're safe
So The Wrong Missy
The Wrong Missy is a Netflix movie
Coming out with Lauren Lapkis
Produced by Adam Sandler
With David Spade
And also co-starring Nick Swartzen
Tell me about the movie
The movie, Bobby
It's a romantic comedy, R-rated
Yeah
It's funny, man
It's great
It's fucking refreshing right now
Everything's so fucking intense
Yeah
The shows I watch are dramas and sci-fi
Like future insanity
It's like ultra carbon on Netflix
The outsider
Yeah
It's so dark
Everything's just like, oh Jesus
So this is a breath of fresh air
It's fucking crazy
Spade is funny
Because he has to play kind of the normal
Like straight man in it
So everybody else is just insane
Rob Schneider's fucking crazy
Yeah
Lauren Lapkis is amazing
Amazing
She's amazing
It's great
Tour de force performance by Lauren
She's a good ensemble cast
A fluffy office worker
That's David's friend
It's sarcastic
You know, totally in my wheelhouse
And yeah, it's great
But yeah, I'm a little thick in the movie
I was coming off a TV show, Typical Rick
And I had a good couple of years
So I was a little thick Swartzen
But I was good
Jackie Sandler's energy was great
Oh yeah, she's great
It was a, you know, that was good
I remember, do you remember the morning
When I saw you on set and I hugged you?
Yeah
Fuck, I remember
Yeah, I do, of course I do
Yeah
Anyway, it comes out, when does it come out?
Tomorrow
On the 13th
On the 13th, Wednesday
Which if you're listening, it's on Netflix
May 13th on Netflix
Bobby, you played one of the office dudes, right?
No, I play a fucking hotel clerk
Oh, okay
Okay, I have one fucking line, all right
That's still a lot
But Nicky, hey, man, promise me this, dude
Promise me that when this shit is
This quarantine shit is done
Whenever it is
Please come back and come into the studio
And do this for real
Yeah, of course I will, 100%
Okay, good
I would love to, you know, I live in
It's not that far from you
Yeah, that's fine, I'll make it happen
All right, give Nick Swartz an Toronto Plus
I love you so fucking much, brother
I love you
You're so funny, okay
Thank you, Bobby, you're funny, I love you
Be well
Be well
Don't whisper to Bobby anymore
Do you guys see the UFC fights or what?
Whoa, those are spectacular
You know, the UFC fights, we saw it
And I was a little, it was a little weird
With no audience, right?
Yeah, it was quite
I think the fighters could hear Daniel Cormier
And the commentators the whole time
Not only that, you could hear the fighters breathing
And you could hear the hits more
Like, right, and you're like, oh fuck
There's nothing to absorb that, huh?
I kind of liked it
Yeah, that was kind of brutal
There was a couple of disappointing things about the fight
Number one, because I wanted, you know
I thought that Dominic Cruz wasn't completely out
But, you know, he did get knocked on his ass
Do you hear what he said about the ref?
He was saying the ref was, he smelled like alcohol
And smoke
And apparently the ref would not make eye contact with him
Before the fight in the locker room
So Dominic was literally trying to like bend over
And look at the ref
And the ref would not look at him
Oh, shit
So his whole thing was like, that guy was drinking the night before
And he's been on multiple interviews since now
Saying that
Which is interesting, because
Interesting
Yeah, because what's so funny is that
I don't think the ref was
Aware of the clock
There was two seconds left
Yeah, that's
Two seconds left, I know
He should have let it go
Also
What you realize, too, is that
Inganu is a fucking
You just realizing that now?
No, I mean, because of the
Miochik fight, you know, and, you know
Derek Lewis
It was, you know, you're kind of
But then when you realize that
Listen, he was probably going
Some sort of psychological thing
During those two fights
Like some mental, like, you know
I think he saw sports psychologist or something
I think that's what he did
Yeah, now, right
He's just going out there and going
Oh, I'm just gonna do, you know, kill them
You know, and he, he just
He was so fierce
And like a locomotive
Yeah
It's so scary
But so soft-spoken, so sweet
I like him, yeah, he's a good guy
He's actually very smart, too
He's smart, yeah, that guy is
Gonna be a force to reckon with
And then
We saw something that I
Never thought I would see
Which was
El Kukui losing
So sad, yeah
I didn't, it's not that I would
But that's gaichi, babe
It didn't shock me
What shocked me was
The fact that he was still
Alive and breathing
And not
Not even bothered by the fact
That he fractured his orbital bone
Like he, you know
There's that, there's
This one condition
Where I think it's called
Like congenital, like analgesia
Or something like that
Where you don't have a lot
Of pain, like women who have this
Don't have pain during birth
Or when they
I honestly think
There has to be something there
Where, like it was
It just blew my mind how
He just kept walking through
And not being phased by anything
Is it legal to put like old
Medicinal, like herbs
On your face to numb your body
Is there a pill that you can take
To numb the nerves on your body?
Like, like
Salon pas?
No, like tiger balm, it's so minty
It burns your skin so bad
I'm talking about even more sacred
And more, you know, like
Could somebody, for instance, go into
Some Mexican forest
And pick up herbs
And come up with a concoction
That completely numbs your body
From head to toe and would that be legal?
Just for fighting
Pain is necessary for everyday life
No, no, pain is necessary for everyday life
But in a fight
Can you take something to numb your shit?
Is that considered a steroid then
At that point? Yeah, because
You can take things orally
To kind of
Mute the pain a little bit
Like when you get tattooed
Like any type of
Any type of pain reliever
Is going to minimize the pain a bit
Oh, so you could possibly take
Like six vicarins before a fight
Yeah, but you're not going to perform optimally
If you're loopy like that on vikes
Oh, yeah, that's right
That's right, that's true
How are you going to maintain a crisp head
For fighting? Yeah, yeah
A crisp mind
Some guy just like out there going
Yeah, knock out
That's why drunk people
In any fighting video you see
The worst
Are just always out the fastest
That would be fun to watch
Like a UFC fight, but everyone has to take
Four tabs of acid
How acid might be different
They're going to start biting each other's tongues off
Or they might just like do like air artwork
And then you're judging on the air artwork
They're like painting things with these
Trails and stuff
Or maybe they like
They start to punch and eventually they just kind of
Get into a hug
And they just start hopping up and down laughing
You know what I mean
It's pretty cool to watch
But it's amazing how
Ferguson
That he could take
A beating
That dude
Because some of those shots of gaichi
Through
That vik guy that gaichi knocked out
Oh, Mike vik
Mike vik, yeah
There's like ten shots like that
And Ferguson would just
Absorb it, but you could tell
That he was not willing
What was even more interesting
Was that even when he would get rocked
Usually you see dudes like wobble
Or they need
A couple seconds to recover from a shot
It just
Didn't apply to him
Like he would get knocked back and then just come
Like still would full focus in his eyes
He's still all there
The last hit though was really tough to watch
Yeah, he did a little small iris jig there
Yeah, that was tough to watch
What makes me sad about it too
Was because he was supposed to fight
Khabib
And now he won't have that
Opportunity that's
But Tony is a legend
No matter what, I don't think
That this was a loss for him
I think people will come out of it remembering him
Even more than gaichi
Cause that was crazy
I did love gaichi
He's like one of my favorite fighters
Me too, he's a good egg
Remember when rose beat yanche check
Oh yeah
And gaichi did that video online
Where he was like, I love you rose
He's crying and being very supportive toward
Rose, Nam and Eunice
I thought that like endeared myself to him
And
You alright man?
Me? Yeah
What happened?
I will say there's pee
Definitely about to come out of my dick
Oh there are? There's something going on with you
Well let's take a
Let's end it then
Let's do an unhelpful advice
Go pee though, go pee
I got it, this is my goal
While you pee
I'll have a couple of drags of a cigarette
No he wants to keep going
Unhelpful advice with
Bobby A. Kleiler
Alright guys
This one is from our friend
Elizabeth
Hello Tiger Belly, my name is Elizabeth
I'm from Houston, Texas
Texas has been reopening businesses and resuming life
As if nothing has happened
It's obvious to me that the government cares more about money and economy than
Safety and health of the people
A lot of friends in my life have been hanging out going to the beach
They try to make me feel bad for being cautious and staying home
And aren't even wearing masks in public
A lot of these friends I've known for 5 to 10 years
Is it time to move on from these hometown friends
Or do I forgive them during these weird times
Because they're just doing what they believe is okay
I'd appreciate any advice, love you all
Elizabeth
It's like this
If a buddy of mine is like
A man
I'm going to go skydive this weekend
And I'm like
Go ahead
I'm not
Right?
If you die you die, I'm not going to do it
So it's like
Even if Los Angeles opens up
And you know
I have a lot of friends that
Think that it's a
Conspiracy
Right?
That there's something
Diabolical
And they might believe that
And they're going to go out with no mask
And go to a rave or whatever
But for me
And my family
And I think Kalyla feels the same way
We're going to be a little cautious here
Because
I'm a smoker, I don't know exactly what it's going to do to my body
And
I don't feel comfortable with it
And you just do what you feel comfortable with
Really?
Yeah, I think that ultimately that's the best way to go
Is to understand that people are
Operating from
You know, there's so
The spectrum is so wide
Of where people
Where people feel or think
About all of this
And I think we have to be really understanding of everyone's
Feelings about this
Whether they're afraid of the virus itself
Or they're afraid of their livelihood
Whether they're afraid of government overreach
Or
Loss of freedoms
Those, even though if you don't agree with them
It's still
Everyone's operating out of some type of fear
Right?
Fear of big banks, whatever it is
I think we should just be considerate
And kind to each other
Be open to their
Feelings as well
And hope that they're open to our feelings
And be cautious
And that's ultimately what we can do
I don't think that you should sever friendships over it
Unless you feel as though
They're just not respecting where you're coming from
Because that's a whole different topic
That's where I would end a friendship
Not because of
Them wanting to live their lives differently
Than mine
But if they're encroaching and not respecting
My own feelings
Then sever those friendships
But if it's not that
For you, don't do that
Keep your friends, they're important
I was also at a place
Maybe a week or two ago
Where I was like
What are we idiots reopening
What are we fools
But then I've been able to put myself
In other people's shoes
And look at their perspective
And I understand why
We need to get that economy going
People are hurting
I'm now not that resistant
I do know though
That this thing is going to be out there
For a very long time
And
I'm going to protect me and my own
And so
That's that
Same
One day at a time
One day at a time
Might feel differently tomorrow and that's okay too
Might feel scared again next Wednesday
And that's okay too
Might want absolute freedom the following Wednesday
That's okay too
Yeah
One day at a time
But no matter what you do
Always keep in mind that there are people
That this is costly too
And those are your nurses
And your doctors
And people who have to intubate you
I definitely don't go along
With the point of view
Some people have to die
I don't believe in that
I think that we can do this
Well
What's confusing is that the people who are saying
Some people need to die are the people who are pro-life
So it's like wait you're not okay
With a fetus dying
But you're okay with a grandma
Or somebody with a comorbidity
Dying like that to me is a little bit
Like a contradictory
That's one thing I'm not
Understanding but
You know teach his own
I could go on about it but I'm not
Okay
That was a great show
I could go on but I don't want to
You understand?
We don't want to cut out a lot of things
Nah
Anyway
Thank you for listening to another episode
Of Tiger Valley

That doesn't feel good
When you fall fucking asleep
It doesn't Jules, I'ma tell you
I almost looked over to you and be like
Hey go take a nap outside
Are we that boring to you?
That's why we think we're eating it
This fucking girl
I know and I was like oh god this must have been so bad
Cause she's just like knocked out
Come on Rudy
Yeah come on
But she also doesn't know who
No she can't hear
Gilbert, George, Lauren
Or Nick Schwartzen
She only hears us
We can leave a headset on the other side
But thank you for listening
I love you guys and stay safe out there
