Starting point is 00:00:00 🎵 ¶¶ Just wavy gravy, man. Wavy gravy. How'd your blood donation go? I was just about to say that. This podcast is two pints of blood short than it normally would be at the moment it really is when we were in there um you could turn them up a little bit crank it up it's funny when we were in there earlier well okay the first the first funny thing about donating blood here is that you do it in a trailer.
Starting point is 00:01:28 And it's really funny when you tell people that. It's not just a trailer. It's a trailer in the Walmart parking lot. It's a trailer in the Walmart parking lot. I mentioned it to the guy today and he was like, eh, it's community. Right. This is where the community is. Right.
Starting point is 00:01:40 Well, so that's funny. But as this was going on, I was texting Tom during the entire thing. I was like live texting him. Do you two ever stop live tweeting each other? Never. I was definitely, I was just like, you should see Tanya right now. She's totally got a white face, like pale face, like is on the verge of passing out. I was like,
Starting point is 00:02:07 her blood flow is just, it's not like, it's not like mine, you know, it's just like got a, I was just talking shit. You're such a dick. I was mad,
Starting point is 00:02:16 I was talking mad shit. About my blood flow? Yeah. My God, I cannot catch a break. My iron was low though. They almost didn't let me give. They had to take my iron twice.
Starting point is 00:02:29 The second time, it was better. I think I'll get you beef intake up. I doubt it. Well, no, I've got... My iron's too high. He told me it was from all the spinach he eats. Little Popeye over here. You've been eating a lot of leafy greens.
Starting point is 00:02:47 They told me they're like, you'll actually feel better after you give blood because your iron's too high. And they were right. You feel better? I feel pretty good. I feel kind of low. I do feel like...
Starting point is 00:02:57 My energy's low. Yeah, I do feel like winded, like climbing a flight of stairs. But we did good. We did a good thing today, Tanya. I definitely had my doubts at several occasions the questionnaire alone will make you question your moral compass oh yeah no they ask you if you've hired uh prostitutes they ask you if you've heard sex workers or if you have given sex for trade i mean at, at one point I was like, I think I need to phone a friend.
Starting point is 00:03:27 I actually am not sure I could answer all of this. The funny thing is, I think it's actually more than just like, have you purchased sex in the last 24 hours? It's like, have you exchanged any items? Yeah. Oh, it says drugs. It lists a few things. Have you bartered any items? Have you traded sex for drugs, money, several things.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Xbox games, two tickets to see Jeff Foxworthy. I definitely texted someone today and said, based on your behavior in the last 12 months, I may have just given blood illegally. And he was like, uh, he was like, I don't know what your whereabouts have been. Well the cool thing about it is that they'll call you next time, like before you go and donate,
Starting point is 00:04:13 they'll call you like the night before and they'll be like, your blood last time went to wherever. Oh, they track it that detailed? Where'd your blood end up at? The last time I donated. In Sebastian Gorka's veins? Yeah, Peter Thiel's veins, Did they track it, that detail? Where'd your blood end up at? The last time I donated. In Sebastian Gorka's veins? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Peter Thiel's veins. Because look at me. Oh, God. Who wouldn't want this? Who wouldn't want these? That's karate. Grade A hemoglobin. They said it went to Richmond.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Virginia. Kentucky. So that's cool. It's cool. You know, it's like cool to think about my blood. I asked her today, cause I felt like this particular day was hopped up that it was going to Texas. Cause there's so much like whatever.
Starting point is 00:04:55 And so I asked her, I was like, are you all sending all this to Texas or what? And she was like, some of it'll probably go there, but it wasn't. She said it's just based on demand. It would be bad-ass badass if you were like a,
Starting point is 00:05:08 if the truck transporting your blood down to Texas got hijacked and so when they called you next time they were like, Mr. Ray, I'm sorry to say, your blood didn't make it into anybody that we know of. It actually ended up on an interstate in Arkansas. It was sold in a tiny Caribbean nation for about $10. Alright. I'll be right with that.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Your blood ended up on the deep web. Yeah. Wow. Wow, wow, wow. So you didn't have any, all of your questions were right? They were like, okay. Yeah, no, I mean, I have asthma.
Starting point is 00:05:51 And they were like, are you wheezing today? And I was like, I'm good. He asked me how I felt multiple times. He literally took a breathing treatment 24 hours ago. Yeah, I'm good. Don't tell the blood people. It's nerdy. The blood czars.
Starting point is 00:06:12 But almost everything it asked you it said have you done this or have you had sex with anyone who's done this? And I was just like Poll everybody. Yeah how are you supposed
Starting point is 00:06:23 to I mean. Hey y'all have you ever done black tar heroin I'm gonna send a group text that's the funny that's the funny thing that's the funny thing about them using the blood when they call you because you're just like I just wanted to be like so that
Starting point is 00:06:38 means it's good right it's good blood there's nothing wrong with it nothing in the blood I should know about you know so it's basically like a HIV test Good blood. There's nothing wrong with it. Nothing in the blood I should know about. You know. So it's basically like a HIV test. Yeah. No, they'll definitely show. Oh, for Christ's sake.
Starting point is 00:06:51 We do not recommend skipping your HIV test and going straight to the donation center. I know. I just want to. Well, actually, that's a good way to do it. How is it? Yes, because you get screened for it automatically. They do screen. However, I was just. Listen, when you're from fucking projects, Tanya, we go give screened for it automatically. They do screen. However, I was just...
Starting point is 00:07:05 When you're from fucking projects, Tanya, we go give blood to get tested. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Actually, it is free at the health department. Yeah. But... HIV screening is free most places.
Starting point is 00:07:17 It wasn't in the 90s, guys. Yeah, you're right. In the 90s, it probably was not. We're still... We're, like, saving our baloney rinds still around here. We're just like so impacted by our childhood. Yeah, I don't actually subscribe
Starting point is 00:07:30 to the philosophy of donating blood just to make sure you don't have like hepatitis A. However, it is a cherry on top. It's the added bonus. Yeah. Some of the diseases they asked about,
Starting point is 00:07:42 I've never even heard. I couldn't pronounce them. I was like, I guess not. I don't know right no i don't have legionnaires disease that i know um what was the one that you referenced on the um two episodes ago hemorrhaging actually no joke i bet you can't give blood because you were recently in cuba i don't know i haven't tried but i got back i um i I bet you can't give blood because you were recently in Cuba. I don't know. I haven't tried since I got back. They almost wouldn't let me because Wales was on the list.
Starting point is 00:08:10 That surprised me. The fuck? Poof and mouth disease or something? I don't know, but I told them it was in 2014, so it was three years ago, and that was the cutoff, and they were like, okay, it's been three years, but I think it was actually two years ago. Was Cuba on the list? Well, you should go and don't tell them
Starting point is 00:08:25 that you've been to Cuba. See if they take it. After they take it and it says, you're blooded, I'll say, ha, been to Cuba. Or they would call you and they'd be like, Mr. Sexton, have you been to Cuba? What the fuck did you never have? You've been exposed to typhoid fever.
Starting point is 00:08:38 They show you a picture of your blood cells and it's just got like hammer and sickles on each of them. They'd be like, you've been to Cuba. Hasta la victoria siempre. Oh my God. This is our last episode. Everyone's going to be like, fuck these people. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:08:55 We can be nice. We're nice. We're being nice. We're literally talking about conning the blood sinners. Me and Tom were talking the other day, like at lunch. We were having lunch the other day. Y'all have lunch together every day. Not every day.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Once a week. About once a week. It used to hurt my feelings. I'm over it now. It's more like a... I don't care. Okay, I'm not going to try to justify this. Literally, I do not care.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Don't care. Move along. Okay, anyways. We were to try to justify this. Literally, don't care. Don't care. Move along. Okay, anyways, we were having lunch the other day, and we were talking, like, we should start being nice people. We should start being nicer people. Like, we made a vow to be nicer. But I had to push back on that a little bit. You know, I don't think it's all it's cracked up to be.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Just trying to stay out of drama is hard enough. I feel like adding nice to the layer, I just don't know. Are you drama? No, I've been staying out of it, but hearing the drama pisses me off. I mean, I sent y'all a text this week that said I was going to go on a murder spree, which I did feel like I might have to. You never told us why. Yeah, you never told us why or who or when.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Well, some maniac, you can guess, messaged me at 4 a.m. about drama that had nothing to do with me, just to spread it, and I was like... Dang. Did you respond and say, are you trying to pull me in some drama? No, I said, get your life right.
Starting point is 00:10:20 You need to... Did you tell him, I'll let you hate fake people and lie? Get your goddamn self together. I love the basics that do that. Hates fake people and liars. Likes, what's the most normie TV show out now? Likes The Office.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Modern Family. Yeah, likes Modern Family. Honesty and loyalty. Right. Oh, shit. My children are everything. It's hard being drunk. My children, exactly.
Starting point is 00:10:58 My world. One of the, I don't want to go down this rabbit hole at all, but I just want to make one quick observation. I haven't been on Tinder in a while,
Starting point is 00:11:04 but one of the funniest parts about it is the bios that say, just here for good convo and to meet people. It's like you came to the literal worst place. You came to the goddamn meat market. You came to the opposite. Because they're lying. They're lying.
Starting point is 00:11:18 They're trying to set up. Everybody here is horny, pal. People whose profiles say that have literally messaged me DTF. And then their profile says... I want good combo. Just looking for good combo. Just looking for good combo. Just here for friends.
Starting point is 00:11:36 God damn it. Coffee dates. Let's retire Tinder. I've not been on Tinder in over a year. It feels so free. It's low-hanging fruit. Anyways, let's push on. So, Isis.
Starting point is 00:11:50 That never punches just right how I want it to. So, a lot went on this week. A lot went on this week. Houston is not in good shape. Oh, my gosh. What else happened? Joel Osteen. Yeah, let's talk about that, Tom. What else happened? Joel Osteen. Yeah, let's talk about that, Tom. Let's talk about
Starting point is 00:12:07 Joel Osteen. What do y'all know about Joel Osteen? I thought you were going to bring up Taylor Swift. Oh, we're going to get to her. Are we? She'll get her comeuppance. But first, J. Osteen. J. Osteen. I feel like I should have an original
Starting point is 00:12:24 take on this, but what do you have to say? I'll tell you this. I've spent, I used to like Joel Osteen. I used to be one of the people that was into Joel Osteen. Really? I was. He kind of, like, for me.
Starting point is 00:12:40 What was his big book? Like, his first big, like. His first big book was Your Best Life Now. Okay, sorry. And then there was like a sequel. It's like... And they're all the same. Like he's got like 20 books now or something.
Starting point is 00:12:51 But all of them are basically like, if you just keep a positive frame of mind, then God's going to bless you and bring wealth and prosperity into your orbit. But what I think is interesting about Joel Osteen, well, there's a lot of things I think that are interesting about Joel Osteen, but when I got into him, Joel Osteen was kind of like the, he was kind of like the grown and sexy alternative to like the TV preachers.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Yeah. Because he had like a little legitimacy because he was on the big networks and primetime. Then he had famous athletes going to his church and all this kind of stuff. Right. And he's not as egregious
Starting point is 00:13:33 as the other TV preachers. You know what I mean? He's not like, send me your life savings and you'll get healed of cancer. Well, he doesn't have a sort of charismatic... Jim Baker's got like that,
Starting point is 00:13:46 he engages the audience, he does crazy shit. Right. Eats food. But Joel Osteen is just a pretty face. You know, really, I mean, that's really all. He is a handsome guy. That's really all he's got going for him. He's kind of got that like curly mullet haircut thing going on.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Is he from Texas? Yeah, he's from Texas. Houston. So that's what's happened to him. Yeah. His dad was a famous, not really a TV preacher, although he was on TV, but his parents were like some of the earlier
Starting point is 00:14:18 proponents of the name it and claim it theology. Like they believed if you just pray hard enough, God will give you a fucking jaguar, you know, or a house or whatever, you know, money. That's tight. I like that believe like if you just pray hard enough God will give you a fucking Jaguar you know or yeah a house or whatever you know money that's tight I like that favor whatever now I'm all into that shit too if like there wasn't like an ugly component of like fleecing poor people and to think you know I mean like that's how these people got rich I made a mistake about it right but anyway I mean no I've always wondered, like, I mean, like, how do you go to a megachurch?
Starting point is 00:14:48 Like, that is really what blows my mind. And do you think that there's anybody in that megachurch right now that, like, sees through the hypocrisy of Joel Osteen, like, virtually closing his doors to, like, people who are in need of shelter. What did he actually say? I missed this. He just refused to let anyone come? Yeah, they just closed the doors and they basically said that oh no, we're waiting for the city of Houston to designate us as a shelter area. And it's just like literally no
Starting point is 00:15:18 other church in Houston was like, they just did it. Right. If they were above water they were taking people in. The Bible designated you as a shelter area. That's for fuck's sake. Yeah. If they were above water, they were taking people in. The Bible designated you as a shelter. That's where it fucks up. Yeah. Well, that's what my criticism was. It's like, that is literally Christianity 101.
Starting point is 00:15:32 Yeah. In time of need. That's what they tell you in seminary. I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was hungry and you fed me. I was homeless and you gave me shelter. Yeah, yeah. Like, literally.
Starting point is 00:15:43 Like, Jesus even said that. You're right. That's in red. That's not even like a... In the Bible. That's not even like a, this is a nice person thing to do. Like, Jesus literally said, open your goddamn doors. It's in the Bible cliff notes.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Open your, open your dad damn doors. Yeah, you're right. So, Joe afflunct seminary this week. Are people going to show up to his church on Sunday? Oh, I'm sure. Well, whenever they reopen, I guess. But like, the
Starting point is 00:16:19 dude's got, the dude is so fucking flush. He's probably like the most famous preacher not named Billy Graham today. Yeah. He's got the most famous preacher not named Billy Graham today. Yeah. How the fuck do you have 17,000 people in your church? That's crazy, man. What do people go to church for?
Starting point is 00:16:35 I would assume it's some sense of community. That's more people than are in our county. Yeah, almost. Damn near. Yeah. I don't know. It's got to be... The organization of it has to be pretty wild. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:48 There are overflow rooms. Most people are actually just watching him preach or whatever's happening on the screen. So it's like an event. Basically going to like a basketball game. It's like Bono. It's like going to a U2 concert every Sunday. Yeah, you're just watching a TV screen. So why not just stay home is my question.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I don't know. That's true. You're watching it on TV. And he's probably on TV at this point. He probably has his own. Because God speaks to this man, Tanya, and the closer you are to him, the closer you are to God's presence.
Starting point is 00:17:17 Yeah. I really don't know if that's like Joel. I don't know Joel Osteen's theology or philosophy or anything like that. I'll be honest with you. I have been, and I'm on the record on this. You can go look. I actually referenced Joel Osteen in this article I wrote for Daily Honor in 2007.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Positively? You referenced him positively? Yeah, I guess I was a Joel Osteen apologist. Interesting. You weren't doing it ironically? Surely you were. Ten years ago? No, there was nothing ironic about it. Really, I was i was probably still in joel osteen's latest 2007 right i'm just like trying to give you an out here for the audience it was ironic right no i'm out i'm outing myself here we're not it's all right listen jordan missed a few shots oh god but uh what But what's funny is I thought Joel Osteen was pretty innocuous
Starting point is 00:18:06 in terms of what he believes in, what he's preaching, or whatever, until yesterday. And I just thought that was pretty shameful. Yeah. Well, it was. It was shameful. See, if my family starts listening to this podcast And this is the one they hear
Starting point is 00:18:26 I'm done for Because I wasn't on the basement When y'all drugged Jesus through the trenches The first time No no no What we're actually saying is that This is a pretty standard critique I mean what we're actually saying is that
Starting point is 00:18:43 The corporatization I really fucked that word up, the corporatization or whatever up church is what is like. It's antithetical to the actual. Yeah, like, you know, if you believe in God, if you believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ, like nothing that he does, and especially no, nothing that he did recently, is... His lighter outfit's been a little...
Starting point is 00:19:08 His earlier work was a little more true. Substantive. Yeah. Right. Yeah. He followed the red letter back then, clearly. But he's drifted from his ways. Honestly, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:19:21 I mean, but you do wonder about those guys, like, how they started out. Like, if they really did start out as genuine people or if, like, over time they've become... And, like, here's another thing, though, that's weird about it. Like, what the fuck about him is so goddamn compelling to so many people? Like... Joel Osteen?
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah, like... He's really kind of just like this, like, mild-mannered, milquetoast sort of... Right. He's not saying anything super interesting. All he does, basically, is get there every Sunday and deliver the same ten platitudes. Yeah. I mean, I've watched enough Joel Osteen to know.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Everything is hokey, anecdotal story about some woman that had breast cancer and then rebounded from that experience to have a decent normal life, which is all good and fine. That's why I, for a long time, was like, well, it's just corny, but I don't think there's anything. What's the denomination? I would say Joel Osteen probably falls into the Pentecostal, but it's very tame. He's not like laying hands on people and healing people on TV. But his parents definitely were into that. Oh, so this is a family business.
Starting point is 00:20:29 He's kind of a more mainstream, like Joel Osteen is way more palatable than most like Pentecostals in that it's like, I don't know. You've seen the presentation. It's kind of like if fucking, I don't know, if like you too. Like you were saying. It's just kind of like, I don't know, the presentation is just. Underwhelming. It's just boring. It's literally just boring.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Well, this is kind of, it makes me wonder if like. So, you know, you have to assume that like people are going to yeah like you're saying earlier people go to church for community or whatever but like i would imagine that like really powerful people go to that church his church in houston and like there is like a very cynical sort of side to it you know what i mean like i don't know like the only reason i'm saying all this is because yeah like his message is so vacuous it's so um just watered down non-controversial or you know i mean not that pastors are controversial but you know what i mean like it's not like he's it's not like he's saying anything that is really profound or anything like that. Right. So, I mean, it must serve a much more cynical purpose in the Houston community.
Starting point is 00:21:49 And it probably has a very successful youth group. Oh yeah. Like those mega churches, those mega churches have insane youth groups. They're flying them all over the world. Yeah, right. They're roping them in. And that has always been so,
Starting point is 00:22:04 like, this is honestly one of the reasons why I think I became an atheist is because, like... I needed a little edge. Yeah, my brain needed a little bit of edge. No, because, like, the youth groups are so... They're like popularity contests. And it's, I don't know, it's just really awful. It's very corporate and shit, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:27 You know what I mean. Here's the sort of interesting, another interesting dimension, especially for the purposes of our show, is that Lakewood Church, Joel Osteen's church, used to be the compact center where the Houston Rockets played. No shit. What? So it literally is an arena.
Starting point is 00:22:43 Which is one of these taxpayer-funded fucking behemoths that gets passed off to these fucking plutocrats to make massive profits off of while we have to still pay to get in. But it was donated? No, no, no, no, no. He bought it at pennies on the dollar. But basically, the the argument is like, it's not his to fucking buy, right? It should be like giving back to the city or the whoever, you know.
Starting point is 00:23:11 Wait, how do you set up a church in an arena? I just can't envision this. If you think about it, a mega church is basically an arena. Yeah. I mean, do they have Sunday school? Surely they have Sunday school. They probably have like multiple Sunday schools, don't they?
Starting point is 00:23:27 Starting at 6 a.m. There's like five before 11 a.m. I would hate that so much. Dear God. When you went to Sunday school, was it divided up in between age groups and shit? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Damn, I mean, could you imagine what that would be like at a megachurch? Yeah. Attachment issues surfaced early because every time I had to switch up to a new teacher, I really fell apart about it. Yeah. Because it was like you'd spend three years with one Sunday school teacher and then you had to move up. Right.
Starting point is 00:23:55 It's not like- I was like, no, I'm not doing that. It's not like school, school where you get one year. Right. Yeah. You get attached to the Sunday school teachers. Well. Well, damn. Right. Yeah, like you get attached to these high school teachers. Well. Well.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Damn. Yeah, no, Joel Osteen is, uh, he definitely he definitely dropped the ball this week. He didn't do good. When I googled him, the first thing that come up is Twitter is dragging Joel Osteen.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Oh, man. So I assume this is what's happened. Well, the funny part is he didn't do anything to, like, help himself either. And he's like, I was just waiting for the city of Houston to designate us a whatever. And then, like, everybody's like, well, what about all these mosques in Houston that, you know. Right. Yeah, open their doors. Damn, Joel Osteen recruiting people to the cause of radical Islam. Imam Osteen.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Radical, I don't know. Oh, my God. So what else went on? We can't drag Joel Osteen no more than the internet already has. Yeah, I don't know. I just wanted to point out that he's a grifter and he uh... Here's a question for you, Tom. Who
Starting point is 00:25:11 and you too, Tanya, maybe, like you I don't know, it depends on your uh, knowledge of the Bible, but who do you think were some of the like, uh, who was like one of the biggest player haters in the Bible? The biggest player haters? The biggest player haters in the Bible? The biggest player haters?
Starting point is 00:25:25 The biggest player haters in the Bible. I got this. There's that one guy in the Old Testament that some kids were making fun of his bald head and he called bears out of the woods to eat them. Oh my God. I don't remember this. That's some player-hater shit.
Starting point is 00:25:40 It is, it really is. Herod was a pretty big player hater. Arguably the biggest. Arguably the biggest, I guess you could say. Herod was the king that tried to kill Jesus. Have Jesus killed, actually. He sent assassins.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Yeah. And Jesus just kind of shaking them off. Like Neo from the Matrix. They're just like, shoot that Jesus. Just like, tell him to suck it.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Yeah, Herod sent Mr. Agent Smith to kill Jesus. Oh my God. Which is funny because like, if you, like all these fucking
Starting point is 00:26:18 like Matrix nerds should be like, yeah, it's like, Neo's like Jesus. Nero is Jesus. Yeah, like that's what
Starting point is 00:26:24 it's meant to be. Neo, not Nero,. Nero is Jesus. Yeah, that's what it's meant to be. Neo, not Nero. I'm a dumbass. Yeah, you're right. Now, Herod was a pretty big one. Saul was a huge player hater until he became Paul. And then he was hated on. He had both sides of it.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Right. Saul's a good story in general. Just a big asshole who is accosted by God. He was just walking. He's just walking on the road to Damascus. I'm walking. And God was like. He smited him, didn't he?
Starting point is 00:27:02 He did smite him. He did smite him. I guess you gotta die to be smited him, didn't he? He did smite him. He did smite him. I guess you gotta die to be smited. Yeah. Well, wait, what's the guy that betrayed Jesus? Oh, yeah. Judas. Isn't Judas?
Starting point is 00:27:14 You doubt your own knowledge of the Bible, yet here you are. Fooling the biggest player. No, Judas is definitely the biggest player. Yeah, he'd have to be. And honestly, the fact that he kissed Jesus is really what sends it over the top. Like, that was the most player-hater move. He fucking kissed Jesus?
Starting point is 00:27:36 God. What did he do? You're walking around, you're getting all this shine. All right, Judas got to get his, though. Man, Punch's pilot was a pretty big dick, right? Yeah, Punch's pilot was a pretty big dick. I'm going to push back a little bit. All right.
Starting point is 00:27:57 I'm kind of a pilot apologist. You're a pilot. Because I kind of liked his technique. Whatever y'all want to do, I'll defer to y'all on this. This ain't on me, though. And he washed his hands of it. You're right. That's where we get the phrase,
Starting point is 00:28:11 washed your hands of it. You're right. Really? Yeah. Wow. Who else are some pretty big players? I'll tell you who's not really, it's funny,
Starting point is 00:28:21 they're not really a player hater, but I kind of respect the hell out of them. It's like the defiant thief oh on the cross on the cross yeah Jesus getting crucified haven't y'all
Starting point is 00:28:29 compared yourselves to this that was definitely Terrence oh yeah on the basement y'all called me Jesus because you claimed the other two Tom was the one that was like
Starting point is 00:28:37 I'm sorry Jesus I love you just remember me and I was the one that was like no I fucked this shit nah man see y'all in hell well also And I was the one that was like, no, fuck this shit. Nah, man.
Starting point is 00:28:46 See y'all in hell. Well, also, Satan's kind of a big player hater. Yeah. But Satan's also kind of just a player himself. I've always liked Satan. I've always had an affinity for him. Have you dabbled in the church of Satan yourself? I've always had an admiration for him. I'll say that.
Starting point is 00:29:05 Even when I was a Christian, I was just like, man, he sounds like a bad motherfucker, but that's cool. That's cool. He's never, like we said in that episode, he's never not going to be cool. Yeah, right. Satan. Yeah, he's never not going to be cool.
Starting point is 00:29:20 You're absolutely right. You know, they have like prayer lines, like telephone prayer lines. I wonder if there's like where you like you know you call in and you like leave your prayer for jesus ostensibly here i don't know i wonder they should have one of those for satan i think i'm sure they have satanic prayer lines do you think they have prayer chains everywhere because i mean they're pretty the prayer strain here prayer chain here is pretty damn strong the prayer chain scene yeah is we got a good we're stacked up with prayer warriors oh like a year ago when i had my wreck i was on several prayer chains thanks to friends mothers
Starting point is 00:29:54 or you really here you're still here i'm still here here to tell the tale when's the last time you landed yourself on a prayer chain tom i've been on one since at least 98. He's a constant. Gar brings him up every Sunday. Literally, the only reason I'm still alive. Shit. If you think about it, you were talking about Satan. I just want to talk about Satan for a minute.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Let's pause here. It was some pretty trill shit that he did in the book of Job. When God stood up there chilling in the book of Job. When God stood up there chilling in the celestial court and Satan just kind of swaggers on in there. It's like... First off, time out. It's so funny that because
Starting point is 00:30:35 Job paints God and Satan as golf buddies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're literally wagering over a man's life Yeah Kind of perverted Is a just God somebody who wagers over your life
Starting point is 00:30:51 Yeah At least Satan owns it I'm not good God is just a liberal man At least Satan fucking owns it God is like Candace with the weird eyebrows on twitter who's never been owned god has never been i have a poli sci degree and i've never been owned that's god i have a book
Starting point is 00:31:15 called the bible written about me and i've never been owned well it's so funny though and jesus was his angsty radical son jesus was all of us us, basically. Yeah, Jesus was like rebelling against his liberal dad. And technically, he was a first millennial, and he was born right around the time of the first millennium. The first millennium. The OG. The OG millennium. He does kind of look like a hipster.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Yeah. Long hair. Yeah. Totally defined. Yeah, long hair. He's totally defined. God and the whatever guy on the cross were DSA-ers. And me, I'm a Posadist.
Starting point is 00:31:57 I'm a tankie, actually. I'm a tankie. Yeah, you're a tankie. All right. Sorry. Sorry. I wonder if there's any extensive research on Satan's pop culture appearances. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Because Satan is just, I mean, he's a star. He's had a lot of good ones, I feel like. He basically founded rock and roll. Yeah. Yeah. And sex. And sex and drugs. Everything that's pretty cool, you can trace it back to sight.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Right. Absolutely. He had a pretty good fiddle scene in that. Charlie. He went down to Georgia. That's pretty goddamn sure. That's Charlie Daniels band soon. I'll take your bet, you son of a bitch.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Yeah, he had a pretty good line in that one. Yeah, yeah. Good guest appearance from Satan. Who beat him, though? Who bested him in that song? Get on the down the run, boys run. Fire in the something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Terrible. We don't even know. No uh the devil and little nicky was pretty good oh yeah that was a good that was a that was a really bad movie from the 90s there was a good scene where he uh like every he has like a schedule where he shoves a pineapple up hitler's ass oh yeah i remember that i remember that. I remember that. That's pretty good. Who played the best Satan? Devil's Africa was a terrible movie, but Al Pacino did a good Satan. What movie? Devil's Africa. Devil's Africa.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves. Terrible movie, but Al Pacino. Yeah, if anybody would be a good devil, it'd be Al Pacino. I don't know about the devil, but Alanis Morissette played a great god. Yeah, in Dogma. Yeah, yeah. I gotta admit, I like Dogma.
Starting point is 00:33:54 It's good. Even though Kevin, is his name Kevin Smith? Kevin James, whoever directed that? Kevin Smith, yeah. He's got the best tweet of all time from like 2009 where he says something like,
Starting point is 00:34:08 12 years in and me and my wife still own each other's taint. Like it's something about eating ass. But this was from like back in the day, like early Twitter days. When eating ass was a little... That was a little nice here. Didn't have the mainstream acceptance
Starting point is 00:34:25 it does today it feels like early twitter was a little more of a wild west it hadn't really been populated by a lot of super serious pundits yet yeah someone I saw this on Instagram this week that it was like I guess
Starting point is 00:34:43 I don't know where it how it originated but it was McDonald's tweeting it said it might have said millennials I can't remember what it said uh millennials talk about Big Macs being gross but they'll put their tongue up a stranger's ass after two craft beers McDonald's tweeted this no it was not really McDonald's but that's how the tweet looked I don't know how it was shot, but it was pretty good. Y'all ever stuck your tongue up a stranger's ass? A stranger? Not a stranger's, no.
Starting point is 00:35:14 No, yeah, not a stranger. Mom says I ain't never met a stranger, Tom. Therefore, you can't stick your tongue up your ass. If you've never met one. So basically you're saying every person you've ever met, you've stuck your tongue up their ass. No, I do. No correlation here.
Starting point is 00:35:35 No correlation. Oh, shit. It's hard to be a freak these days. Yeah. There's nothing you can do in the realm of the sexual that's going to be that fucking weird to most people anymore that's what i said recently about this um we were talking about interesting tinder swaps to circle back to tinder i hate to bring tinder up again but um i matched with a mermaid in gatlinburg oh yes i remember this the literal mermaid who
Starting point is 00:36:03 she was an actual mermaid by trade she swam in the shark tank at ripley's aquarium in gallenberg and i was like you cannot how do you how can you possibly uh come up every like 30 seconds to get a breath of air did you ask to fuck her in the mermaid outfit i would have did you ask to eat her ass if i had gotten there but it was too intimidating it was too intimidating here's the quick how do you please someone in bed who literally is such a thrill seeker that they swim with literal fucking sharks how do you compete with that and like if they swim with sharks yes yeah man they swim like next they swim in the shark tank it's like a show in gallenbergburg. What in the goddamn hell is wrong with her? I don't know, but how do you please someone who
Starting point is 00:36:47 swims with sharks during the day? They obviously like... She needs a good union is what she needs. So much that can go wrong. What you do is you put on a mermaid suit of your own, and then you fuck her or him, or them if it's a merperson.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Or you put on a captain's hat. How do you fuck in a mermaid fin? I tried to swim. Our friend Lily. You cut a little hole. It's like there's little holes in male underwear. But your ankles are tucked together. Yeah, you're right. I don't understand.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Limitations. I can barely swim in a mermaid fin. I tried recently. I don't know. I think, yeah, it's probably practice makes perfect. You have to fuck a few mermaids before you can like
Starting point is 00:37:30 be really good at it. Gotta fuck a few mermaids before you can... All right, how's that go? Kiss a couple of toads before you get your... Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Yeah, you gotta fuck a couple of mermaids before you get your... Yeah. Technically, if that analogy was holding true, you would need to fuck a few fish before you fucked a mermaid. Yeah, that's what I was going for. Kiss a few fish before you can lay your mermaid.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Yeah, there you go. There you go. We'll see if that one catches on. Oh, shit. Shit, shit, shit. Wow. So, Taylor Swift? Taylor Swift, shit. Shit, shit, shit. Wow. So Taylor Swift? Taylor Swift, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:08 I have nothing to add to this conversation. There isn't. So I'll let you do it. Neither do we. We don't have anything. Well, there's something I saw that was kind of interesting today. There's a Kanye fan subreddit that's trying to plot. Because they think that
Starting point is 00:38:26 Taylor's subtweaking Kanye in a lot of ways. One, she's putting her at the most egregious thing, they think, is she's releasing her album on the anniversary of Kanye's mom's death. You think that's intentional? I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:38:41 It is quite the coincidence. That would be some player hater shit. God, peak player hater shit. God, peak player hater. Damn, you were in a dark hole today reading about this. Nah, I just kind of, oh, that's interesting. I feel like you have to dig for that kind of
Starting point is 00:38:57 paranoia. Then there's all the video coincidences. This is becoming a conspiracy theory. Making light of Kim's robbery and what else was there in there? Then she kind of ripped off Beyonce. Oh, you think the robbery scene was about Kim? Do you think Taylor Swift had Kim robbed? This is such a mounting conspiracy theory.
Starting point is 00:39:19 I love that. If she had Kim Kardashian robbed, that'd be badass. If Taylor Swift... Or if she organized it. Yeah. Maybe she did it herself I think they're so mad cause they won the receipts battle
Starting point is 00:39:28 this is such a stupid fucking joke theoretical it's not what if some of the jewelry that she's like bathing in in the video was it's Kim's jewelry that got stolen oh damn that would be crazy that would be crazy a peer stolen jewelry in a music video
Starting point is 00:39:44 the thing is I don't I can't That would be crazy. A pier stolen jewelry in a music video. The thing is, I don't, I can't, these aren't real people. You know what I mean? Like, all this is made up by PR, you know, campaigns and companies and stuff like that. It's like. But we talk about Trump. Oh, yeah, that's true. Same.
Starting point is 00:40:02 What's the line? Like, what's the line there? Like, when does it stop being conspiracy and start being, like... Or wait, maybe when does it stop being PR and start being reality? We're there. I mean, like, fuck anything anymore. Should the Trillbillies hire our own PR? Yes. We should hire a PR company.
Starting point is 00:40:26 I need a personal tweeter. Well, we need someone to make beefs for us and shit. We do. Who would we beef with? I can't get into a beef. I ain't made for it. We do need a good beef. Somebody step to us.
Starting point is 00:40:44 We'll see how it goes. Yeah, no, you're right. We don't have any real good beefs Somebody step to us. We'll see how it goes. Yeah, no, you're right. We don't have any real good beef. We're vulnerable right now. We've been too nice. This brings it back full circle to what I was saying earlier. Like, you don't wanna be too nice.
Starting point is 00:40:55 We need to start taking shots. I feel like my entire life is like, I feel like my entire life is me putting up a much bigger bark than an actual bite, you know? It's kind of like we were talking earlier this week. Like, I am actually a very physically frail person. I can't party. Terrence is a frail boy.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Yeah, I'm a frail boy. I'm not a frail boy. But my brand is very much, I like to get fucked up. I'm just kidding. I don't know if that's true or not. Well, I literally heard someone refer this week to someone who was the kind, he's the kind of guy who ain't never had his ass whipped. Oh, someone referred to me as that because that's true.
Starting point is 00:41:38 No, they didn't refer to you as that. You've never had your ass kicked? I've had my ass slapped around a little bit. Flipped. Flicked. Eaten out. By my ass. Eaten out.
Starting point is 00:41:52 No, they weren't referring to you. But yeah, they said that I thought, yeah. You're right. The person they were talking about. I know they weren't talking about me. Because I've had my ass beat on a number of occasions. Really? I've lost three out of five fights I've been in.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Really? The other two were total draws. When I was in... I didn't want to fight outright. What kind of fighting did you do? Like that, like knuckles. Oh, really? Like an Irishman from the 30s.
Starting point is 00:42:21 You do a couple rounds, do you? The only thing that ever... When I was in Little league baseball Yeah that's all my fights have been softball Yeah when I was in t-ball I like got in this argument with this kid and he punched me Right in the fucking face right here Oh my god
Starting point is 00:42:37 And I had glasses on He punched a man with glasses My glasses were like My glasses were like And I was like... What the fuck? My glasses were like... Fuck, buddy. No, this has happened to me too. That was the first time I... Y'all both got punched wearing glasses?
Starting point is 00:42:49 No, I got slapped. And my glasses... Did your glasses go sideways? No, they went off my face. She slapped my glasses off my face. And I just like leapt onto her. And we both hit the concrete. That's just great physical...
Starting point is 00:43:02 That's always going to be good physical comedy. Like your glasses being like this. It's always great physical that's always gonna be good physical comedy like your glasses being like this it's always good physical comedy and later i was like crying you know this was i was pretty young but i was crying somewhere after we'd been separated and someone brought me my glasses so like sorry i hate this happen i don't even remember what love that shit Every time there'd be like a fight in the school Hallways like there always be that One guy who has his Homies backpack you grab your
Starting point is 00:43:32 Friend's backpack like Or other items books Or what the fuck Hold it for you Take your cape off High school fights are crazy they're badass It was like It was like this shit sucks Like, we can take your cape off. Like, hey, all right, help me. High school fights were crazy. They were badass. It was like, it was like, this shit sucks so bad, like school.
Starting point is 00:43:54 But, like, if you can see a fight, like, in the middle of a hallway, like, that was badass. God, it's so good. That was, that was like, this makes it worse a little bit. I went to high school with these two guys, and they got into a fight one time and it was so funny because the level of shit talk wasn't as savvy in like the late 90s early 2000s as this now your mom it was we were still on your mom yeah the guy that was clearly going to be the victory because he was like 6'5 at 15 and you know 280 pounds he looks at this guy we'll just refer to as baits
Starting point is 00:44:27 that was what he called baits he said baits i'll stomp you out like a cigarette and in like 99 that was like oh shit you know what i mean god damn that would just be the wackest shit ever yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah i told a girl one time I'd gut her like a deer. Damn. Damn. Which I didn't know. I was in such a rage, I didn't know that I'd said that, and that's what people tell me later that I said.
Starting point is 00:44:53 That's hardcore shit, Tanya. It was bad. That's like what somebody would say in a medieval fighting room. I'll gut you like a deer. Gut you like a fucking I got you like a fucking dick you stupid bitch the one fight that I got into where I thought I actually might lose my life it was kind of like a
Starting point is 00:45:16 medieval or not a medieval but like a Salem witch trial there was this guy we got in a fight on the basketball court he fouled the shit out of me and I slung the ball at him and hit him like he turned around but hit him like in the upper back i got him good as fuck and i got him good he goes he goes you're trying to do this and i said what do you think about this douche and i grabbed his he had a white sean kemp sonics jersey and i grabbed it and it had been raining and there was a mud huge mud puddle right beside the court and i took it
Starting point is 00:45:51 and just threw it over in the mud puddle he had it on and you took it no like he had worn it there he didn't have a shirt on and he like hung it on the skin so i When he was talking shit to me, I nonchalantly went and grabbed it and said, Hey, what about this, douche? Put it in the mud puddle. Douche. He said, Go get my jersey. I said, The fuck I will. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:46:16 He said, Go get my jersey. And I'm kind of like a nice guy. I'm like, Okay, I'll go get your jersey. Well, he still had malice in his heart. When I went over there to leave and get that jersey, he came with a full head of steam and knocked my ass in that mud puddle. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:46:33 motherfucker, and I got back up to swing at him. And he grabbed my head and held me under that puddle. I tried to drown my ass in a mud puddle. And I came up for air, I said, you motherfucker, you tried to drown me in a mud puddle. I tried to drown my ass in a mud puddle. And I came up for air. I said, you're motherfucking... You tried to drown me in a mud puddle?
Starting point is 00:46:50 Is this guy in the mob? No, I was way out. He waterboarded you. No, it wasn't waterboard. He tried to drown my ass. Literally tried to drown my ass. And finally, some guy pulled up and said, hey boys, boys! Oh yeah, there's always a coach.
Starting point is 00:47:06 Yeah. They'll drive. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. That's the five words you hate to hear. You trying to do this? You trying to do this? It would have been totally on brand for me, though,
Starting point is 00:47:18 to have died by drowning in a mud puddle at 14. The concept of me asking someone that is really funny to me in a really serious way. Are you trying to do this? Are you trying to do this? In a fight situation, your rap is almost as strong as how well you can fight unless that guy's just mean as fuck.
Starting point is 00:47:37 When you are pissed off, you do sort of dial into this whole totally different realm. You become somebody else. You know what I mean? Like, you're just saying shit. Oh, yeah, I hear Jay-Z's takeover cue up in my head, and I'm like, oh, yeah, I'm getting ready to kick somebody's ass. I always get my ass kicked.
Starting point is 00:47:53 I hear Stone Cold Steve Austin's glass breaking. Like, pring! Yeah. You got a walk-up song, Tanya? A what? A walk-up song, Tanya? A what? A walk-up song or a fight? Well, only because I thought of this this week when you all were going off on your female rappers top list on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:48:14 It would definitely be Pussy B. Yankin'. Oh, yeah. Have to be my lady. That would be your fight song. You're trying to fuck or fight? You need a cold shower. It's just such a bad song. Even fighting is erotic for you.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Is it? Why would people pay money to see people just bleed all over each other if it's not erotic? I just really don't get it. You're trying to defeat your opponent, Tanya. You're trying to vanquish somebody. I don't know. What did you say yours was? Take over.
Starting point is 00:48:44 I don't know. What did you say yours was? Take over. I don't know. Well, you don't have to have it right now, but just think about it before you get in your next fight. I was always so envious of the people that, like, my cousin Adam had a great fight one time that I was, like, an ancillary part of. This fucking guy called our buddy Maze the N-word. While he's stepping into a cab,
Starting point is 00:49:12 like we're at this bar, and you know everybody's just drunk and jawing, and this guy says that, nonchalantly just walks up to him and goes, one time, and knocks him out in the cab. The guy's unconscious in the backseat of the cab, his feet on the ground. I was like, why can't I do something cool like that?
Starting point is 00:49:29 Everybody's cheering. Yeah! Just instant. I've never had that moment in my life, but I want to knock somebody out for a righteous cause in front of a bunch of people. In a badass way. Did the cab driver just drive off?
Starting point is 00:49:43 He's just like... I think he was like, damn it boys i broke a girl's nose once in one fell swoop and felt pretty good we were in like a softball i can't i was sitting here trying to remember if it was clay county or everts because we got in a fight with them motherfuckers every time we played them because they're so fucking crazy and i can't remember if it was clay county or everest but we ended up in a dog pile and like one of the elevating moments was i played first base and you can't in softball you can't steal you have to like tag up or whatever and um i think i think it was a pop fly and she took off and then realized that she had to get back to first some some scenario they threw me the ball,
Starting point is 00:50:25 and I brought it down, and it just was the... Tag the ball. Oh, you just... I didn't mean to, but we were already in an intent. Two other players had almost started fighting, and then later in the game, another thing happened, and we ended up in a dog pile, and I pulled a girl off and slung her off the dog pile.
Starting point is 00:50:43 I can see that out of you. But it was just like the right second that it just got her. I can see you because when I think of my friends that play too much, you're definitely on that list of friends that play too much. You know what I mean? No, I don't know what you mean. Like, you know, you just turn. Just like perpetually turn.
Starting point is 00:51:01 Waiting for somebody to pop off. Waiting for something. But yeah, it broke her nose. It was not good. They didn't know her nose was broke at the time, waiting for something but yeah it broke her nose it was not good they didn't know her nose was broke at the time but I heard later that it broke her nose
Starting point is 00:51:08 high school sport brawls are fucking hilarious like there's one I mean and there's a lot of them all over YouTube but a big famous one from around here
Starting point is 00:51:16 was like Prestonsburg and Paintsville that was a melee that was a massive basketball brawl they call it the basketball brawl basketball and call it the basket brawl.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Basket brawl, yeah. And it's on YouTube. I thought it was at Betsy Lane. Pretty badass. And that was when John Pelfrey played for Paintsville. He used to play for UK. And there was a,
Starting point is 00:51:34 I forgot how it broke out, but it was a damn, it was like the malice at the palace. But that shit gets, oh, that is badass. Don't throw a pup at Ron Artis. Think about that. That whole situation happened because Ron Artest got a soda thrown at him.
Starting point is 00:51:53 Yeah, yeah. I say soda. That sounds so unnatural. A pop. He got a pop thrown at him. He got coke thrown at him. Yeah, that was pretty badass. And chaos ensued.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Someone had a great sliding knockout. I can't remember who that was pretty badass. And chaos ensued. Someone had a great sliding knockout. I can't remember who that was during the Malice in the Palace. Oh, Jermaine O'Neal. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He slid in on one knee and just bopped that guy. That was so good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. See, that's the kind of thing I want to do.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Like, I want to either dunk on somebody or just knock somebody the fuck out In a very like Instead you have a podcast Instead I got a podcast Can you dunk? No I'm saying I'd like to That shit gets heated though Like my basketball
Starting point is 00:52:34 High school basketball team Was like The best of all time It was the best of all time It really was We had our high school basketball coach Who's from West Virginia Ralph Tasker actually It really was. We had our high school basketball coach, who's from West Virginia, Ralph Tasker actually, is the winningest basketball coach in high school
Starting point is 00:52:49 basketball history. Oh yeah, the Taskmaster. The Taskmaster, that's exactly right. I don't think anybody ever called him that. But did you come up with this for our vibes? That's what I would have called him. Had I been a Hobbs Eagle. Yeah, well, the Ralph Tasker Arena in Hobbs is named after him.
Starting point is 00:53:08 But no, it was badass that the student section, when the opposing team would come out, every student would get a newspaper, like a piece of newspaper, and we'd hold it up in front of our faces, and every name that was announced, everybody would go, who's that? Like yell that really loud. And then on the second to
Starting point is 00:53:26 last person, every single time, we would cheer wildly. I don't know where that got started. It probably got started in, like, 1969 or some shit. Somebody went early, like, it was supposed to be for the last guy, and then it just stuck. Right. Yeah, everybody's like, yeah. Ernie's always fucking it up. Did you guys
Starting point is 00:53:42 remember, like, how there was, like, kind of like a good fight in high school. It was like an event. Like, I can still remember the fight between Jeremy Sturgill and Paul Hall. Paul Hall
Starting point is 00:53:58 went to the rival Fleming Neon Pirates. Jeremy Sturgill was a Whitesburg Yellow Jacket. Was it basketball? Well yeah but like you'd heard whispers about this fight for like
Starting point is 00:54:07 days on the street before it actually took off. It was a build up. But
Starting point is 00:54:11 White Spur was playing neon and basketball and it was so funny because everybody
Starting point is 00:54:15 like attendance for this game was like off the charts. I mean
Starting point is 00:54:20 our games were well attended but like it was asshole elbow in there.
Starting point is 00:54:23 And what was so funny is like everybody was like when do you think they're going was like, when do you think they're going to go? When do you think they're going to go? I think through some intermediary or some arbitrator, they had decided that at halftime they were going out to the yard to duke it out. I feel like when there's that much buildup, rarely anything happens.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Oh, no. It happened. But it was so goddamn funny because you you saw Jeremy move to the door and then like everybody stood up and went outside and then their side stood up. God damn. They were fucking wrong and cops couldn't pull them off each other. Jeremy's
Starting point is 00:54:56 fucking 6'5", 250 pounds and like the other guy's pretty good size too. Jeremy beat the fuck out of it. But like I just remember it being an event and like everybody's like, come to the game Friday, you know, Jeremy and Paul are supposed to fight.
Starting point is 00:55:09 And like, it was like almost like that was the main event, not the basketball game. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. Well, who won? Oh, Jeremy.
Starting point is 00:55:17 Well, that's for Yale Jackets. We always, we always finish first. You know, until they closed their doors. That reminds me, my high school, you could, you could make the case
Starting point is 00:55:28 that my high school invented the pejorative cuck. You know, I mean, the word cuckold has always been around, but I feel like
Starting point is 00:55:35 only until recently have people been saying it in a derogatory way. Like, cuck, well, anyways. We always call it,
Starting point is 00:55:41 I always thought it was cuckold. I didn't know it was cuckold. Like, when we would say cuckold, it just meant some guy took some guy's girlfriend. Or some girl took some guy's girlfriend. Yeah, it's just like... Yeah, whatever. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Well, I guess cuck is like a specifically... I don't know. It kind of feels like it sort of arose to popularity during the whole Trump alt-right thing of the last few years. Anyways. Hobbes' biggest rival has always been Clovis. Clovis, New Mexico. That's the biggest Hobbs rival.
Starting point is 00:56:11 And everybody in my class, not everybody, but a lot of people in my class made this shirt that they wore to this big Clovis game that said, Cuck Flovis. So we were the originators. Cuck Flovis. So we were the originators. Cuck Flovis.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Yeah. Pretty clever, right? That is pretty clever. Pretty clever for a bunch of 16-year-olds. That is pretty clever. It's really not that clever. Anyways. This has slipped into some serious nostalgia.
Starting point is 00:56:38 Total nostalgia. Yeah. Is nostalgia useful? Is it like... Hard to say. I mean, I generally try to stay away from it at all costs, but lately I've been feeling pretty nostalgic. Yeah, me too.
Starting point is 00:56:51 It's a slippery slope. Nostalgia makes you remember torturous experiences way more fondly than they were. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, definitely. I'm nostalgic about the first time, the earlier days when I started having panic attacks. Like, oh, those were the good old days. Yeah, definitely. Like, I'm nostalgic about the first time, like, the earlier days when I started having panic attacks. Like, oh, those were the good old days.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Oh, my God. It's like, why the fuck? It was terrible. I feel like that about depression and shit, too. It was like, oh, yeah, that was easy. You know, it's just like, that was the good old days. I can just go back to that. It's like, while you're in it, it's like, hell.
Starting point is 00:57:22 I just had the opposite conversation with Hootman. We were talking about how used to when you, like, the older you get, the more you just, like, understand your body and know that you're going to, like, have a couple bad days and then you'll be fine. Yeah. But used to when you, like, if you'd hit a depressive state, you'd be like, well, that was it. My good days are over. I had a good run. Yeah. That's the end of it.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Yeah. But now it's like, oh, oh yeah I just need to sleep a couple days and hydrate or something like do something I need to eat a bunch of broccoli or something yeah no it is interesting to think about how
Starting point is 00:57:57 how much of history itself like written history and this brings it back full circle to our earlier conversation about the bible and like player haters in the bible and shit but like how much of history is actually um written from a nostalgic sort of point of view you know what i mean like you're not getting the actual objective facts of what happened. Especially if anything that happened before like a hundred years ago. No, you're just getting strange white guys' perspectives.
Starting point is 00:58:29 Strange white guys. Perspective of what happened. Yeah, who like to write about it. Right. The problem with nostalgia, I feel like, is that... It ain't what it used to be. Wait.
Starting point is 00:58:49 We're a podcast for 65 and up now. We're like the left-wing podcast equivalent of, like, easy listening stations. I felt that way when I thought they were going to turn me away from donating blood today. I was about to slip into a dark place. I'm not even healthy enough to donate blood. This is a goddamn problem. Oh, God. I was like,
Starting point is 00:59:07 this is not good. You'll find out, though. Yeah, they'll be calling me, like, ma'am, you need to go immediately to the hospital. Or a blood thief will call you. What did you do to me? What did you do to me?
Starting point is 00:59:19 You're like a heavy Eastern European. You'll say it ain't be positive. You giving me the O. That would be a bad way to die. Having a different blood type injected into your body. What's that that happens to you
Starting point is 00:59:36 when that happens? You probably have organ failure. It rejects it, but what's the... There's a name for it. They give you a drug for it. I don't know. That would be really weird. you up i guarantee but the problem with the nostalgia is that um we cannot think our best days
Starting point is 00:59:53 are over at what at the point that you think like your best days are behind you i don't know you have to have hope for the future. Yeah, you cannot sit with that. I feel like I have a few friends slash acquaintances that think, that are often just like hung up on nostalgia. And I'm like, if you think your best days are over, dude, what? Yeah. You know what's interesting about that? How you wake up.
Starting point is 01:00:17 When I turned 30, when I turned 30, I had that like thing that like, oh God, my best days were coming, all that kind of stuff. And two years into my 30s, I feel like I'm still young now. We're just figuring this thing out. It's been normalized to me. It's just like 32 is not that old. Yeah, I can't run around with college girls anymore, but who fucking cares?
Starting point is 01:00:41 The weird thing is that the older you get, there must be a certain point past which you realize you're actually not young anymore but like the weird thing about getting older at least i've experienced in my late 20s is that like is realizing that you're actually very young still yes yeah my biggest nostalgia is for like how my body used to be oh yeah well that's, I was young and handsome then. Instead of doughy. I was definitely sharper. It's more of my intellectual game.
Starting point is 01:01:14 It's all that acid. It's just the acid. This is the acid I do every day to make sure I can do my job. Someone recently mentioned an acid flashback, that they had an acid flashback and I was like, is that real? I have my doubts that that's really a thing.
Starting point is 01:01:31 It's totally a thing. I really don't know. I have no idea. I was like, really? Are you serious about this? I've never done acid. May surprise you. But I've never done the acid.
Starting point is 01:01:45 I've done done the acid. I've done everything but. That's a little nostalgia for you. Hell yeah. I've done everything but. It's like my brother.
Starting point is 01:02:01 That's the funniest tell it story. Have I told you that story, Tanya? I think this sounds familiar. I've told funniest tell it story. Have I told you that story Tanya? I think this sounds familiar. Yeah I've told it to you before. About how I was sitting around with my
Starting point is 01:02:11 brother. I think I might have told it in the episode with Jenny Williams. I can't remember. But me and my brother Cason were sitting around with my
Starting point is 01:02:19 brother Brayden. You've given all their Christian names out. No these aren't real names. Brayden. They're the whitest names I can think of My brother's Flovis and Cuck Yeah
Starting point is 01:02:31 Flovis Ray We and my brother Cason had been hanging out the night before With some girls I was like 19 and he was like 16 or something And we were talking And we were just shooting it up Shooting the shit Shooting the shit He was like 16 or something. And we were talking and we were just shooting it up.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Shooting the shit. Shooting the shit. Yeah, sorry. Just shooting it up. Shooting dope into our veins. Real laid back, like. Call that Thursday in Hobbs. Yeah. And Brayden was sitting outside.
Starting point is 01:03:00 He's like, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Kept trying to interject. Yeah, yeah. And finally my brother Kaysen goes, Brayden goes brain shut the fuck up you don't know shit about girls and brain goes man because i know everything there is to know about girls except for a rim job what's so funny about that to me is like he actually knew what it was called but didn't know what it meant to do it.
Starting point is 01:03:25 Yeah, he totally heard that and was like, putting that in my back pocket. But me and my brother, it didn't even register. Man, I know what it's like, but it's no matter. It didn't even register to me and Kacen at first. We looked at each other
Starting point is 01:03:40 and then it took a good five seconds and we were just like, what? Except the rim job. Oh my god. Well, suffice to say that he's now 23. He knows what a rim job is. Let's hope. He's gonna listen to this
Starting point is 01:03:57 and be very... Sorry, Brayden. It's alright, Kaysen. Oh shit. Anyways, how's that for a show, Ender? I don't know where we go from there. We're over an hour. We've got an hour and six minutes.
