say because if there's if there's a delay or whatever you're just your coast I
love being at the lounge when you don't have a show that night so it feels good
but I had an appointment before this and now this and then the bonus and then I
got the flight starts ticking you're clicking and ticking yes hey to tick or
beep well cuz I just had this last week a couple weeks ago and I alluded to it I
was flying from Seattle to Houston I had to fly through Salt Lake City
connection and then the initial flight was delayed so it threw it all off so
then I had five hours to kill so I called my friend I know it was a mess so I
called my friend Erica it was Derek's wife my friend as well and I said hey I

like one of her old ones like Jenny from the block I think it was oh yeah on a

jerk yeah or Listman all right all right jerk Listman you got Clarkman that's
a misprint I got a picture in here baby all right perfect get your yeah oh my
god that was scary okay how about that waiter who gets a little nutty with the
water oh yeah picture you like all right man I remember going to friendlies as a
kid you guys didn't have friendlies but you've you've heard of it I didn't have
friends either great great ice cream Carvel no it's friendlies is that its
own thing yeah friendlies got it it's Carvel sucks fuck Carvel really yeah maybe
it's good whatever you guys like I like but isn't it ice cream cake yeah it's
great okay well maybe it's great whatever you think you got to cut through it
with a buzz saw though it's rock hard I thought it was melty well it's that bad
ice cream that that gelatine kind of that Dairy Queen you know it's almost
too doughy but I think Dairy Queen when I was a kid back when I was banging up in
New England or Massachusetts Dairy Queen didn't have food which blows Sarah's
mind why we had ice cream only Dairy Queen got it like when I traveled it was
like burgers at Dairy Queen right another Bob cut my mind was blown well
they're not great burgers let's be honest it's a it's a connection to the ice
they said hey we're doing all right let's throw a burger on the grill make it
even more money but the burgers stink so the burgers came second it's ancillary
what's that mean I wish I knew look give that a goog ancillary it's a it's a
satellite or it's an extra it's an add-on okay like Chuck again there you go so
it's an ancillary burger yes yes I've still never eaten Dairy Queen it is like
me providing necessary support to the primary activities it's just an add-on
they figure hey we can do we get more out of this okay throw a burger on the grill
gotcha well anyways I've never had one I'm sure they got tater tots over there
sure fries yeah Coca-Cola how do you feel about Sonic you know it seems like fun
they got a whore on a skate it's outdoors it put a tray on your window but I
don't know it's all the same it's just cheesy tots whoa and they always make a
big deal out of it we got the mudslide I see or whatever you're like all right
it's just sugar and jizz I don't even think they give you the tray you're
thinking of vacation then I think that's like in the graduate and the vacay I
don't I got a Sonic they just hand you a bag like Burger King maybe you're right
that tray was always a little rickety yeah well new car new car they had the
vacation but I thought of a sonic bit a visual not a bit but like a gag a video
of a scene the hedgehog where you go no different guy I liked him though we do
that sure I think he was messed up and then he had tails oh that's right little
orange yeah yeah a lot of those scrappy dude there was always the little guy they
had with him that's me no you're you're tall jerk true well I thought of a funny
bit you go to Sonic and then you order at the window the cameras over there and
I go what do you want a bag of shit and a dog okay let me get this and then they
go okay it's 988 and just out of habit you just go okay great and you go you
slam into the building that's fun that's a good gag yeah well those Sonic guys
remember them they were hot forget about it that was the biggest commercial in
advertising and then everybody's like are they gay what's the deal but those
guys must have made 10 mil on that yeah I think so he was a UCB guy that was the
golden that was the dream was to be like a performer and get get some
commercial like pro flow progressive or the the AT&T gal yeah that's big money
right there yeah that's exciting but then you're stuck as that person I guess so
Matt McCarthy though remember him do I remember I talked to him quite a bit he
was oh really well occasionally good good egg but look him up give him a go I
mean his commercial resume is like Schindler's list it just yes too long
there you go
Lisbon what was I talking about so no I was at the airport there killing five
hours so I call my friend Erica Derricka sure let us to benefit which led us to
wherever the fuck jerk so I call her I go I got a five-hour layover and she goes
well I just happen to have gone to Target right next to the airport she goes
I'll come back and scoop you up how often do you have this wow drop off through
security get to the lounge and the friend is still nearby so you leave the
airport what yeah because I got like four hours to kill so you gotta go back
to security I know that's all I'm thinking about that's what made me think
of this because today we're doing this but I got a flight that's how I felt we
went we went out to breakfast which was nice and had a nice breakfast a waffle
and the thing we made out a little and then we went to the beach and walked up
and down the beach yeah because it's Seattle is right on the on the coast is
that right yeah well it's on a coast the coast I guess yeah coast oh we walked
up and down the beach I'm skipping rock but the whole time I'm just having an
anxiety attack because you're looking at the thing like I gotta go back to
security is traffic gonna be gay whatever at least your pre-check no shoe
off pre-check clear the whole thing the works and now there's a new thing by the
way that's like face ID oh what's this it's just popped up last night says opt
in or opt out you know me I'm opting right in yeah opt in my ass I've never
heard of this opt up in this digital ID right here digital ID I don't know what
it is but the airport's turning into Disneyland you got the fast pass you got
the or you can wait in the regular line it's just what which one is it it's like
Louis bit Louis got that great bit about he had a some clay and they're like
oh this could be C4 we're taking this he's like it's gonna sit here is it a
bomb or is it not a bomb right like if you had a bomb at the airport they
wouldn't go like you got to make a choice here if it's really harmful get a guy
with a suit on and the clamp things you know to come in there with the dog and
then he walked slowly and they put it in a bin and they walk it outside that's a
bomb yes or me Saturday night yes either way which one is it yeah that's a
good point I don't remember that bit oh it's a great but he's got some pearls on

there from 11 to noon I was like I was there from 11 to noon how big is his
lounge decent size you've been to the lounge similar like the La Guardia lounge
okay okay but if you're sitting there's there's little bubbles and shit and
you're not looking that's true looking for Rana and you want to be left alone
you don't want to talk to anybody exactly I'm sure he wasn't talking if he was
talking to someone I know he's there right a little noisy sure he's a
verbose yes booming booming booming lisp yeah Joe Lisp yeah but I didn't know
he was there but anyways you find out one of your buddies was there you're
like fuck of all the lounges in all the world yes lounge lizards gin joints now
if he's in the lounge we gotta up the the standards for getting in the lounge
well 12 inch chubby weird Jew I mean come on we gotta have some scruples here I
think we talked about this I'm a little resentful because a lot of people get
in through the card yes exactly you buy a credit card and you get in I'm doing it
old school with the miles putting the miles in spending the money anyone can
just get a card but how how do you get because I got I'm platinum so I might
be an already no platinum doesn't get you in diamond diamond well platinum my
there's some stuff with platinum all right but diamond I found out I didn't
know how to utilize my shit I got $400 worth of vouchers and lounge access for
the year plus a guest diamond is big diamond is big yeah diamond district
all right all right well let me try without the card I want to see if I
because I think I'm in I'm gold with Delta or platinum with Delta and then
whatever's the highest on ancillary on United whatever that is well United's
not gonna help you into the Delta lot they're right but they got their own
lounge oh yeah and it's a fucking trash heap in there they got cheese and
crackers and Doritos and a cup of soup cup of soup Jerry I mean that's trash
yeah this year give that to a hobo the Seattle lounge not as good they don't
not consistent these lounges the Seattle lounge has like make your own oatmeal
it's like a little packets I don't like a pack of hot water on there
is that LaGuardia has like a big bucket of stew yes give me the stew Green Bay
packets I don't I don't like it I want the stew I feel bad as bunch people sit
at home and working a forklift going we still talk about the lounge yeah no I
know they hate us all right what can you do well where you been we recorded a
podcast 26 hours ago well I gotta tell you fatty I am a hurting I feel like a
gay guy after his first role in the hay because my hammies are hurt my ass is sore
I'm bleeding I could I could barely get out of bed this morning I was like I was
in it I was in shock or what do you call it traction traction what is traction
traction I think is when they they really tape you up in there oh you move
your spleen will fall out so they really duct tape the for it remember they have
the forehead taped yes yes you couldn't get up I think that's traction with the
pads and the tape oh I'm pretty sure maze laid up she's got the leg up with the
bandages on it nurses are coming in she had a bedpan she's on a gurney I mean
she is ruined because she doesn't she works a day job you know a desk job so
she's out all day just sitting there well we haven't told him what happened oh
sorry so it's something we had an orgy we got fucked in the ass no we played
pickleball pickleball folks fastest growing sport in the United States
world America whatever it's COVID it's taken over old people love it and fat
people avoid it well it's very fun and you know I love a pickleball Sarah and
I love pickleball we don't get to play very often and I like tennis but tennis
is tough grueling it's grueling and most people can't fucking play so they're
just hitting it everywhere every which way sure there's a lot of running and
it's expensive and it's got to be you know it's whatever but pickleball is a
little bit more tight and then yes it's a little more condensed so it's playable
yeah condensed milk and it it's indoors tennis can be outdoors a lot and it's
it's it's what it's got it's accessible accessible do it an old guy can do it we
can do it ladies can do it it's for everybody yes so I wanted to I wanted
to play we've been dying to play so I called every couple I know I went
through everybody seven eight now almost 12 couples and finally I was like well
it's over no one wants to play with us everybody's busy and then I asked on the
list and then I thought what you know what I forgot about Mark and May ouchie
ouchie we've only known each other for a coon's age coming come on lucky 13 you
were the 13th couple right well you know I had a couple couples I met on the
sidewalk a couple hobos that attacked me I tried to mend fences few swingers I
get it no I'm kidding you were the first choice let's say and I couldn't believe
you were into it and and Sarah and I were taking bets she's like there's no
way he's showing up and I was like I think he'll be there see I'm flipping I
flip the script on all you queves yeah well you change and I had to scold you
but then I had to I messaged me because I was like can I just ask you I was like
have you heard about pickleball at all she's like yes yes he told me I'm coming
and I'm like okay that's right just wanted to make sure but boy was it
exciting and lovely time lovely time but my my my hip flexors and my glutes are
just ripped and my calves are already fucked your calves were bad your face is
bad I mean it was a it was a bad scene going in and I was stretching but I
didn't want you to see me stretching because I'm so I'm so out of shape I'm
so stiff and I gotta say I feel like we're comics we always lean on the hey
look at these civilians what a bunch of rubes we're living the good life they
got a day job we're out every night doing shows we're getting laid we're getting
drunk you know we're getting t-shirts made and Zagan and Zagan sure and then
you hit me with this the most uh coupling mainstreamy kind of thing on the
planet and we're still down I think it's good for us to get into that world
because it's easy to just step back go look at these idiots over here we're
we're we're a we're a pirates on the edge of the sea you know and then it's fun
to go into that normal world for a minute well it's quite fun and it's
delightful and you get the dopamine flow yes the serotonin the serotonin
and the and the dopamine's flowing and you get into the flow because you're not
thinking about reals and the views and the business because you're just trying
to win get to the ball and I'm sweating my tits off and this is a funny thing too
about the stretching because what Sarah I'm I start stretching and Sarah's like
are we the only one to stretch for pickleball and I'm like no where are the
retards that only stretch for 30 seconds before pickleball like we should
be stretching for an hour we're in our fifties for God's sakes right and I
listen to something I learned to I was like what I get to play in that baseball
team for a day these guys are like 22 years old they spend like a one full
hour warming up stretching they have a guy pushing yes and like Novak joke of
it famously is like stretching like 40% of his day is that right yes and they
have the long rubber bar they're doing this thing oh yeah right right and
there's throwing a big heavy ball off the wall they have resistance bands they're
doing that and they're doing it for an hour these guys are 22 professional
athletes and saying I just watched them behind the scenes Celtics practice
whatever and it's just all day stretching and here we come 40 years old 39
whatever and going in there and I'm like there's a couple Lam Limber whatever
this is how you throw your back out no I did one of these a tote touch and then
I hit my wife and I called it a macaroni but yeah today I am sore I shouldn't
have been playing because my calves were all fucked up you pushed through you're
a trooper but boy was it fun you feel alive out there oh yeah and it's nice
because when that ball just sails over the net like you hit a little dinger just
to try to scoop me a dinky yes a dinky dinky in the brain and I got to get
under it and that's the most important thing in my life right now is getting
under that ball baby when you get it over it feels good but then you slam it
behind me yeah it's a good time yeah it was fun and you had a couple lane
violations there but whatever it was a good fun and got about that what sucked
is that we didn't get to because I like to rotate partners sexually and pickle
bally we didn't get to team up but I would have really loved to have shown
these women who's got the cocks you hear that Lea Thomas yeah the wife swap is
always a good time and you have to communicate with a new lady it's
fascinating yeah it really is and it's really exciting and fun and I wish I
could do it for the rest of my life but you know you really it's really fun to
get in there and paddle those balls it's fun and it's fun to cook because I've
never played before so you have to go oh I'm bad at this let me work on that let
me not do that again and you have to we only had an hour out there I know
flew by so you have to like checks and balances you have to kind of be real
with yourself like your backhand is weak you got to hit it harder and it's nice
to apply new things yeah it's very exciting without that clock though
starts ticking at this when you first start playing like this is great we got
50 minutes and then you're like counting down you feel like a kid yeah like fuck
it's gonna be over soon next time I think we should do two hours definitely do
two hours maybe we'll take a five minute breather because I was moisture that a
fat lady at a Bieber concert I was wet and I wore the headband I was like kind
of as a gag and I took it off it was brown and wet like my asshole I'm getting

guy Brian Boytano he looked like Brian Boytano but I knew I was like oh he's
a he's wearing that and he's not worried about it B he's stretching and he's
doing this shit before a fist fight so I was like oh weird and they beat the shit
out of us well there's always those guys in a fight that's scary that they're
just doing like things matter factly they're like yes oh he's just this is
just like business as usual can't see anything that's so true and I've told
this story a many a time and probably on this podcast but whatever there's new
listeners and a lot of people bail on us because you're a kid jizz I think we
cycled people through menstrual cycle but one time I was playing I was at the
brown jug I think you went there one time man you were here for this I think I've
been to the brown you might have been here for this story is that a chain no
no one in Cape Cod now this is a this is a this is gotta be a one-off I think
it's a common name I see brown this is a real shithole I think it's in Melrose or
Maldon it's not quite ever but maybe it's ever but whatever somebody was there
beef place they have beef sandwiches now that's Mike's roast beef right yeah
bulletproof glass yeah so anyways we're at the place and it's me and Tom Dustin
and somebody else I forget who but we're a cornhole not cornhole with that too
but golden tea golf that was a big thing Tom would make make money doing that
that was big people I had a moment big moment I know a guy that ripped his
hand open because the screw was loose on the corner where the ball is he did
this it just oh yeah what a weird injury yeah it's kind of weird but tell people
how'd you do that golf we rock slice your hand open golf slice for score seven
years ago this is so we walk up to they will edit out that and whatever else so
we walk up to the guy well like right there these guys were playing golden
tea a couple a couple buddies and one went out to smoke a cigarette and we
walk up to the other guy we go hey can we can we get next mind if we jump in and
the guy didn't quite understand or something he's like what and we're like

just cuz you're not from South Boston right yeah and you know we ended up
getting out of there unscathed but well we had one guy one of our friends he was
Honduran and he was like a while he's a Marine now but he was kind of a wild
child and the ladies loved him and he had this problem this guy Justin and he
walked up with his girlfriend my buddy and the other guy was like damn check it
her out and he goes don't look at my girlfriend like that and they just fist
fought right there right in front of everybody in front of the girlfriend
everything and I was just like this sucks you know like I it was cool to watch
but he got his ass kicked bad and you're like what are we doing now we got to take
him home or maybe to the hospital it was a bummer yeah it's no good by the way
that's a fat girlfriend he had you really went out there yeah that was like a
that's a wide dame yeah she was huge but you had to look at her you know
neighbor slams I know you can't he can't close it he has to slam it every time I
think it's a message it's a Sicilian message like a horse head we sleep with
the fishes fishes John fish look good brother he's funny oh good comic that's a
heck of a comic I as you can see we don't have any stories I had another
thing about fistfighting I lost it I can remember every guy to sometimes I see
him on Instagram and they have kids now and I was like Jesus this guy was like
so scary and so hot oh I remember I was at a party you know those guys who can
just turn on a dime they just you say the wrong thing and it's like World War
3 game on let's do this yes so there's one guy I kind of knew and I go hey
what's up man he goes hey who's got the weed around here who's got the weed we're
at a house party there's a swimming pool you know backyard and I'm like ah this
guy's a podhead and he goes don't fucking call me a podhead I was like I'm
just joking and he's like no no and he's like I'm gonna fuck you up I'm like
come on man I just got here like what are we doing here but I had to like talk
him off a ledge for a half an hour and that would that turn out to be my whole
party and then eventually you know house party some asshole through the
grandfather clock in the pool and the little nerd kid who's running the house
he's like no and they're throwing the lawn chairs and the dishes and they got
pretty ugly now how often were you getting beat up because when I first met
you there was a million times where I thought you're gonna get beat up but we
had that party on the house on the roof somebody had a party I think it was like
a comic book or maybe it was that other lady that would always be around but you
came down I let me try to remember this because you got saved by a few people
coming in yeah it was a guy cuz you're like what's up you can't and you call
the woman a cunt and then her boyfriend appeared and luckily there was like four
of us cuz the guy was like what is it like he just heard something you called
some woman a cunt like playfully yeah I'm joking and the guy was like what is
this I think he had just shown up or something I can't remember I was banged
up yeah you called her a cunt and I mean no recollection of this yeah it was a
rooftop party I'm trying to remember a lot of roofs back in the day because it
was free a roof was free yes he'd get a case of shit beer paps or whatever been
walking his best and you just sit on that roof and we would just get banged up
till someone fell off the roof then we go home yeah I remember being in the
Boston Comedy Festival party a couple times I've been this guy I got two
stories about being the voice of reason which by the way when I was drinking if
I was the voice of reason you got some real fuck-ups running around good point
but there was one there's a Boston Comedy Festival part I think was Victor
Vernado oh yeah funny guy his hotel we hang on the roof of his hotel and
everybody was hanging out and Dan Bulger I forget what happened his shoes got
tied together somehow that's funny his pants ripped and so they were ripped and
he was running and he everyone was laughing like oh look at Bulger run
around with his pants off and he tripped and fell because that's what happens when
you run with your pants your ankles and your drug I've seen cartoons and he
smashed his face on the roof and then he gets up and everybody comes running
over and he's like oh my god should I go and everyone goes you're fine I think
you're good you're good and it's because no one wants the party to end that's all
it is so I walked over and there's blood like squirting out of his chin like a
fucking Sam Raimi movie or whatever it's just firing out of his chin it's like
all my glasses and stuff and I'm like oh no and I was like you got to go to the
hospital and everyone's like calling me a fucking douche they're like you're a
square you're fucking paranoid piece of shit and I'm like yeah I'm drunk I'm on
drugs I don't want to go to a hospital yeah but his face chin is open I can see
the bone of his chin which I'd not kill for that sure I go fuck everybody I'll
take him you guys stay so we went to the cab I think to the emergency room and as
soon as they see him they're like yeah you need stitches whoa faces open and he
ended up getting like eight stitches and I remember he gave the the Sioux five
this is like a day cook and we had a photo of him getting the stitches the
guy was literally sewing him and he's doing the super finger it just gets
stitches I love it which is pretty pretty fun and then the part of the
party came to us and I remember Shane Moss came Shane boy he could put him
back he was this is in his I don't think he drinks anymore but he was drinking and
whatever else and it was the classic thing it was like good fellas when the
doctor came in he thought he was seeing Shane he walks up he's like okay what the
fuck did you do and Shane's like no no I'm a hundred percent this guy over here
and that was that was one and then the other story I like to tell we used to
play softball in South Boston no big comedy league and we had the little
plastic bases yeah there was just like a piece of plastic that you put down they
weren't in the ground oh they can move too much exactly and I was over out in
left field and which which sounds bad and softball that's the prime position
and that was everyone's bombing them out to left solid and so I'm out and left
and I watch Alvin David big Al oh he can swing he could swing and he can he can
do it all he's a Rhode Island guy was he a player a baseball player yeah I don't
think squatty like a catcher no I don't think so all right but boy I got so many
great Alvin stories has he ever been on the podcast back in the day well I think
once and nobody can understand him oh he went to the live pod with him in
bulger oh that's right yeah he's tough to understand sometimes when he gets going
he talks very fast and but anyways so he runs into the base and he tries to stop
and just slides and lands on his face oh boom and once again I hate to tell these
stories or I'm the hero but everyone converges yes he stands up and everyone
goes I think you're okay he's like I'm fine I'm fine everyone's like yeah I
think you're okay and blood starts coming out of his nose and I go Alvin we
got to go to the hospital buddy I'm sorry I hate to break up the game but we
got to go to the hospital what are you doctor Quinn doctor list medicine woman
and everyone goes what no no it's a nosebleed like yeah just a nosebleed
and I went Al you didn't hit your nose
if someone punches you in the nose or the ball hits your nose and you get a
nosebleed you're like oh geez that's probably fine but I'm like if you hit
the side of your face and blood comes out of your nose that's a concussion
that's an issue CTE you're fucking face caved in yes like this blood in your face
and it's moved out of your nose yeah well what a trooper to be able to just I'll
keep going I'm all right well he had about 350 beers that'll help by the way
it was the night the Celtics won the championships what's been oh wait I
guess that we said I'm sorry we gotta go the emergency room we went down there
and once again they go and they're like yeah you're your fucking facial plate
is caved in the cheekbone was like shattered holy hell he went like cheek first
into the ground did he score no he was standing at second while someone
must have been an automatic runner I left with him damn but it was that thing
where yeah you see blood you get smacked over here and blood trickles out of
here you're like that doesn't seem holy hell that that poor guy but he's all
right yeah this is 20 years ago yeah in all fairness when you talk to Al you're
like something's up yeah well he's a he's a he's a wild one and a great
disposition that guy who's having a good I've said it for you that guy's having a
nice time yeah he's a good egg he's he's a fun guy to talk to and you know it'd
be funny if he hit his head he's just like hello how are you like if he became
because he's he's a wackadoo you know he's got them all over the place that'd be
funny but it knocked him out like I always say when Joe Mackie gets laid he's
gonna be like what's up dog he's gonna totally change his whole demeanor
well big Al is a classic character he's got another thing that makes me laugh so
hard is a bulger you know they're about 20 years apart yeah how's old literally
and bulger was like yeah bon jovi I just don't get it I think he sucks and an
alvin who's like Italian from the 80s yeah it's really serious I've never seen
him serious about anything sure and he goes brother you weren't there
oh that's perfect that's perfect so much reverence so serious and it's just like
stop it you don't understand and it's bon jovi and all I can think about is like 1985
Alvin's like a junior in high school he's got the headband and the big hair and he's
he's just loading the hairspray and into listening to like she's a little run away
and he's like you don't get it I saw something like that veter what this is open mic years
this must be like oh eight oh nine we're at comics no longer there Paul Newman just died
on Newman so veter it's a big deal he was a huge star whatever and veter's up there
ziggin Newman because he's trying to be edgy he's trying to be a comic he's like I never got it he
saw oh fig newtons get out of here what do you think you are and this guy this old guy bartending
goes lips that flap up and he goes nope nope and he stops veter and he's like heckling him he's
like you don't talk about Newman like that this guy was 60 years old you know so he probably knew
the guy or raced with him or something but veter got shut down and he's four for one he was like
yes sir no sir well I'm with this guy you know the older I get the more I'm like you don't joke
about this kind of stuff Paul Newman I mean he's probably the greatest movie star of all time he
carried Redford's ass that's for sure and then he donated all the money and the racing and the
salad and his son killed himself cool hand Luke is that right yeah I got pretty ugly ah jeez I know
everybody's like you're Paul Newman son and dah dah dah you got you got your life by the balls or
whatever your dad's a race car driver hottest guy on the planet and he's like yeah yeah that's why I'm
doing it no it was too much wow well poor girl I'll pour one out for Paul Newman uh Randy Randy
Newman he's a hell of a hell of a writer hell of a singer I had something with the concussion
he said the nose bleeding it got me and now I lost it fuck god don't you hate losing it
yeah that's all COVID fog yeah people got that maybe it'll come back but it was a
we were really on a roll with fun fun uh getting hurt stories and I got shins god damn it I lost it
bleeding booze really got you through a lot of injuries because we were always so drunk
that you didn't even feel anything yeah that's what was that's what's hard about it is people go no no
I'm fine I can keep going you need that other person to be like I think this is a problem
totally totally thank god you're there yeah you're like yeah I think the I think your face is
but I really going back afterwards and watching the the Celtics and like his ice in his face there
was something fun about like getting out of the hospital you like you of course my face wasn't
broken but that feeling of like getting out and being like okay we're free again that is nice I
remember I got knocked out at a fight in Mardi Gras I was probably in college guy knocked me out
whatever and I woke up and I had the big old purple egg on the on the eye I couldn't open the eye
and I fell asleep at my girlfriend's apartment on the floor woke up and I look in the mirror and it
was like oh just that that that quasi moto purple blood everywhere you know the other eyes black
this is black and you're like god damn my mom calls I had a little Nokia brick and she goes we
still getting lunch yeah and I couldn't face her with that mug yeah I looked too bad and I said I
can't mom and she was like what's going on with you like she could tell she was like you're off
something's off and I'm like no no I'm good but I had to hide for like three days I couldn't go out
that's a nice mom at least she sounds well she was pissed because I'm blowing her off she's like I'm
on my way to the restaurant I'll see you there in 20 and I was like I can't do it mom and she was
like well we've been talking with us for two days and I was like I just can't do it she's like why
and I'm like I can't she's like why won't you tell me why it's like she could she could feel it out
wow and that's the last time you ever did that to anybody yeah and that's the time I saw my mom
oh wait I just had what I lost it ah we're losing it but oh it reminded me of I got hit in the eye
one time twice I've taken two of the eye I think that's why I'm blind and gay baseball yeah well one
was baseball so I was the the pitcher and I threw a wild paint let's call it a pass ball just for
whatever pass ball catcher's fault it was runner on third so I came running into cover home and then
the guy slid across the plate before my stupid catcher could get it it was lost in the fence or
whatever you know those fences were always kicked in the ball would jam under there so he's trying
to get it the guy slides and I went ah fuck because we gave up the run but the catcher that
finally gets the ball just turns and whips it because he knows there's a play at the play I see
and whips it uh-huh but I just assumed he's not gonna gun the ball because this guy's already
in his car he's on the way so wait you're by third base I'm at home play you're at home
play yes I run from the mound to home plate to cover I watch him slide across like a well there's
no play now and I look up and right in the eyeball and this is a full fastball from about six feet
and it you know fucking caved my face in the whole thing oh and that's a hard ball this ain't no
this is baseball and uh you have to go with the eye test and the pad I had have an eye patch and
then when it came on I remember the white of my eye was like yeah like a dark yellow yes like uh
what's that disease with the drinking jaundice thank you good call jaundice way to pull that out
yeah well I just I got with Dustin ah I was googling it there was an old black guy on my
quarter who would always have like a cobra one of those big silver beers you know and uh he had
crazy jaundice he was like hey what's up buddy all right I was like whoa yellow eyes ah geez like
uh like a doll's eyes um and they roll over white yeah yeah those ball hitting to the face I've had
a few balls in my head face it is a bit that thing is hard yeah right on the chin and I had another
one where everyone was playing pickle that was a big game which I think they later call it
monkeys in the middle or run around when you get the guys on both sides that was the number one
activity in my neighborhood we played pickle all the time I mean that was it but that was just
the game it wasn't like a baseball game that would a pickle would happen sure you just set up the
bases and let's go well that's interesting we'll play for hours and I had just got back from baseball
practice or a game and everyone was playing the front yard so I went oh I'm playing and then whoever
was supposed to catch it I think it was my cousin he turned and it just went he just didn't catch it
because it was the ball was coming and he was like oh you're playing and then
the same thing just right in the old eyeball yeah and uh yeah same thing hospital you don't want
that temple too because that'll turn the lights out there's a couple if you give it a goog there's
a couple uh MLB players who took it to the temple they went blind Bryce Flurry was a red
socks pitcher that took one of the face and it was bad it's flurry Tony Cligniero way back in the
calligraphy yeah fucked him up real good so I remember one time I had a soccer ball I loved
you know when you were a kid you had like eight things and you loved every one of them yeah sure
all right soccer ball I'm not a fucking queer well I took what I could get and I decided it was all
beat up and had my name on it I was like Wilson I love this thing we had a connection me in the
soccer ball something about it also I grew up with a in New Orleans so there's a lot of French
influence so like a lot of the kids uh I grew up with were like soccer douches they loved it
umbro and lotto remember those lotto sneakers the black ones a lot of that shit I play the lotto
yeah so I was I had the soccer ball at school like I'm gonna bring it today I'm bringing this
my one of my favorite things to school big deal okay so I got that puppy right here and I remember
holding it and the bell rang and you know you know they had like early recess before school
started where the kids just yeah yeah that was fun so we were in that and I was holding it and
I'm talking to my chums having a good time curly-headed idiot you know dumb fat kid and this
kid goes boop pops it out kicks it over to his friend he kicks it to another guy 20 feet away
and they go got it and I go all right you rascals you know let's let's make with the fun time over
here we go and they go now we're keeping this yeah these are some street tuffs and I go
go wow that's all fun and good but uh class time you know and they go no no that's it
and I just was crushed you know when something just gets taken away from you and there's no
I like I chased him around a little bit but he was they they were doing the uh keep away yeah
they had numbers they had numbers they were a little older a little tougher a little darker
and uh you just had to accept it and the teachers like come on let's go
and I just had to go in a class and I had a tear roll down like an Indian with a trash
and I was like and I was like damn that's just gone like I just got to accept that did you think
about squealing and saying hey listen I bought my soccer ball and these street tuffs robbed me
not really I think I did like a but my missus whatever my soccer ball and she was like shut
up no one likes you you're half retarded getting and getting their arithmetic nice and all right
and I was just like ah cut to the end of the day I need my brother have to meet up to go get picked
up and uh he hands me the soccer ball anyways I got it back and I go oh it was the best thing
anyone's ever done for me he is a magician that's amazing he got the ball back now were they
upperclassmen and he was an upperclassman so he said hey I think so yeah and I think maybe he
he stole it but he must have hurt I never was like hey buddy hey brother my my my ball got taken it
you know school it's like a little organism he found out somehow and he goes I'm getting that
ball back from my brother wow big moment never talked to him again beautiful yeah I wouldn't
try to talk to him if I knew that story oh yeah it was real big brother shit where I'm like now
we're talking thank you did he make it appear like a card no no he just I think he did one of these
so I got the ball back that's sweet where's that ball now isn't that fascinating I think
someone else stole it all your possessions are just gone it's probably on the shore of a beach
in Myanmar or something you know like it just floats away formerly Burma there you go yeah
yes where's it Burma now which which way did it I think it's I think it was Burma ah Burmese oh
python yeah oh yeah big big python Burmese python but so is it now a Myanmar python oh now that's a
question yeah interesting a big holocaust over there too from Facebook huh I think Facebook caused
a big not a holocaust a genocide genocide recently yes formerly Burma formerly Burma
formerly Burma 1989 so can we go to Myanmar python now is that a Burmese yeah I don't know
I don't think we want to go to Myanmar though it's like they're rounding people up and killing them
yeah yeah Myanmar Norman now what is pickleball's origin I've been sitting on this what do you
know the origin I don't I don't know the origin it's been around a long time though longer than you
think maybe we should take a guess yeah take a guess I'm gonna say 60s okay no I've talked about the
origin of the of the name pickle oh I think I read this and it didn't retain I don't retain
things anymore retainer but I'm interested now to throw out a guess for when this thing started
also okay but pickle ball guess the year or whatever and then guess the pickle ball you gotta
back it up a few years because it always takes a couple to get going right so I'm gonna go 57 58
something like that okay this is like a price is right yeah one dollar bet sure and the pickle I
don't know what the pickle uh but yeah we did it's funny because we we had a game called pickle
yeah with a ball right right so I don't know the name I have no idea how would I know that
what's your what's your year guess 1960 okay and your guess is 57 I mean Chuck just looks so
disappointed in me I'm gonna say though for the origin of the name I'll just say uh they used
paddles they would stir pickles with or something like that oh that's a good guess oh really I gotta
keep a poker face I don't want to say a guy's name is Ted Pickle okay that's good that's a good one
all right all right it's not as good as it is obviously I can see the face uh I mean I'm not
saying either you guys are right summer of 1965 oh you got it pickle ball was founded by Joel Prichard
Bill Bell and Barney McCallum on Brainbridge Island Washington within days Joan Prichard had come up
with the name pickle ball a reference to the thrown together leftover non-starters in the pickle
boat of crew races whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa I guess that means that the pickle boat is like
not the a team of whatever they're doing oh right you know what I mean non-starters non-starters I
think is like bench warmers essentially of a pickle boat I think it's like a pickle boat I think
it might be like an old phrase I know about a pickle park it might be like an old phrase did you
guys have that term pickle park no it pickle jar pickle park was like where uh the gaze went
blue oh that's pretty good that's a pickle park we called it home I heard that no I love it I my
friend's mother said that and that makes me think I'm like is that just her thing because we were
going hiking in blue hills and she's like stay away from blue hills it's a pickle park oh I love that
they were like what is that she's like it's where the men go to have sex so hell's kitchen is a
pickle park yes I was getting Chelsea's a pickle park yeah my basement's a pickle park that I love
pickle my work's out of town province town yeah pickle park give a pickle park at google and see
if that we can find that well I just like that pickle boat which is the reference it says in
sailing the pickle boat is the last boat to finish a race oh it's like a general it's a
derogatory term yeah the loser okay which makes sense pickle ball is for people who were last
picked oh okay and you've ever played Shelby's uh he's he's tennis player all right look at pickle
park is this a turn this is probably by the way derogatory I'm probably saying a horrible slur
right now well we had homo highway so that's a lot cleaner pickle park Norman uh it's funny
because it's on it's it's on wikipedia as just a rest area hmm it says well that's the same thing
it's gotta say that's what it's a gay hangout it literally says now in rest area place usually
in the limited access highway where one can stop to use the restroom or take a break from traveling
yeah I guess that's one way to say that's gay right yeah that's funny to be like hey you want to
take a break from traveling yeah suck each other off all right here we go I got the origin of
pickle park yeah there we go put in pickle park gay hang blue hills Carol Stevenson
yeah yeah it is it is the gay thing okay yeah it says all right in the 70s I love that there you go
she's from the 70s there you go pickle park I want to go visit and they would call people
that go there pickle suckers or pickle park rangers the second one's a lot nicer pickle
sucker this sounds like I suck a pickle yeah I like the juice so they used to be called lollipop
parks for the same reason no kill you suck better yeah boom boom boom at rest areas are you know
notoriously gay hangouts back in the day because they couldn't they didn't have places to go right
these poor gays had to fuck each other at a rest area wow tough times yeah we really came around on
this issue though law of the land I know it's some pushback in certain places or whatever but uh
that's all in our lifetime yeah gay marriage I remember even Clinton and Obama were like ah
it's probably a bad idea and then here we are well I get annoyed because some people are like I
read somebody recently being like Obama never forget that Obama was openly against gay marriage
and I get so annoyed because I'm like do you have and I don't want to talk about politics too much on
the show but you're like well do you have any understanding of politics you did what he had
to do to win yeah and then I'm like they're like fuck him I'll never forgive him for that but you're
like but do you remember also when it became the law of the land under him yeah I don't understand
so you have no understanding of any workings of thing well you're looking at it rashly they just
want the outrage they want the argument they want this win on the guy they don't want they don't
care about justice they didn't care about gays or pickle park they care about this this moment like
I got you right that's all they want and that's why it sucks because you're like we're not getting
anywhere you're not listening right yeah you're like even if he was obviously he wasn't against
gay marriage but even if he was and then changed his mind he got a pass yeah that's pretty good
that's um now now we're getting down down in the weeds but let's get the hell out of this area
they do that with slavery they go white people cause slavery and you're like yeah but they also
abolished it oh you got that whole rig of a roll and uh these aren't uh I don't clip that these are
my I'm just saying what I read on you know my fan page oh man anyways back to the injuries who else
is injured I uh what time I was getting a haircut and they look like a gherkin or a dill I like a
sweet they're a bread and butter is good too bread and butter I love bread and butter pickles oh no
I hate pickles what disgusting I love a pic no you like them yeah you can pickle a dick I'll eat it
no pickles bad uh but that's I'm nice to hang out with a diner because every you're always getting
my pickle I'll tickle your and coleslaw I'm like you got extra coleslaw extra pickle that diner
coleslaw they really gotta step that up a night it's in that dumb little ketchup holder you know
and it's just gooey and white and creamy yeah it's like pickle park sounds like something you find
at blue hills yeah exactly but uh and he just nobody eats that coleslaw yeah nobody I've seen
people eat it I tried to give that to a hobo once and he spit in my ass um I feel like I've seen you
eat the coleslaw I've eaten it I've never seen you not eat a thing that was on the table yeah
yeah it's a it's a problem what what time is it by the way I feel like we've been here for three

good name for a diner yeah that's true a Jewish deli pickle park well you know my best name thing
they have the mangroves in q west a gay bar called the mangrove that's like the the trees that
sprinkle out of the ground I know I'm yeah mangrove that's funny because I went to Puerto Rico

park you like that more than mangrove hello if it's in key west it's mangrove all right I'll call
a pickle but but I think pickle park is derogatory I see or at least it was but maybe we embrace it
