Starting point is 00:00:00 And we thank them for sponsoring the show. Well, no, I'll just go ahead. I mean, look, I'm money dumb. Y'all know that. I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life. And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion, because you used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's just like, you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now. Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people. People across the ske universe, I should say. Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year? Do you even know?
Starting point is 00:00:42 Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery? Getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low mane? Because that's a thing that we do in this society. Do you know how much you spend on that? It's probably more than you think. But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better. and it's called Rocket Money. Rocket Money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions,
Starting point is 00:01:05 monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. Rocket Money shows all your expenses in one place, including subscriptions you already forgot about. If you see a subscription, you don't want any more, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create, custom budgets based on your past spending. Rocket Money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps.
Starting point is 00:01:43 Premium features. I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. and I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that.
Starting point is 00:02:04 Also, a fun one, I'd said it before, but I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friend's faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies. You know, those weren't a little like the Q-ball looking twin fellas.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Yeah. So that was money. What was that in response to? What was that a reply gift for? Just when I did something stupid. Something fat, I think, and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first.
Starting point is 00:02:37 But then I quit using it and was still paying for it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them. They help. If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions or reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money. Go to RocketMoney.

Starting point is 00:07:20 Let's get on with the podcast. This week, at this point, we've had several recurring guests, I guess, but there's no, this isn't even my opinion in saying this. This is the fan favorite. This is the one everybody wants. These are the best episodes. We have Skinny Bumpkin, aka DJ Lewis, on the podcast this week. We sat down in my mama's guest house because that's where DJ and Drew have been living for the past week while they've been recording their brand new podcast into the abisket. I sat down with them and did an episode of Into the Abisket,
Starting point is 00:07:52 and we also just did us a well-read podcast. So I don't even have to tee this one up. It's a DJ Lewis episode. You know it's going to be great. So without further ado, here's me, Drew and DJ and my mama's guesthouse. Love you, and skew! They're the big sex. They care way too much, but don't give a fun.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Next step makes some people upset, but they got three big old dicks that you get. And about kill me. She made y'all move something. Well, she asked us to come move something for her because she's going to paint it. And she did paint it. And then we moved it back into her closet. Yeah, I could have told y'all before y'all got here that you would 100% be moving some type of furniture. She said, make sure you tell Corey, because he'll laugh because he says, we wait until he gets home.
Starting point is 00:08:51 She says, she acknowledged that they now sometimes save things for you to do when you get home because of how mad it makes you. Yeah, yeah. Well, it doesn't make me mad. It's just raving. I always, they don't understand. understanding people don't understand my wife doesn't understand just because I point something out no one understands me just because I point something out doesn't mean I'm mad at it buddy who are you talking I know but like I'm just making an observation well I'm gonna remember you said
Starting point is 00:09:15 that okay all right actually that's fair but I'm saying like I won't even be yelling or nothing I'm just like I'll just go oh yeah wait it you know oh course of course I get here and now we got something to do and I'm like if it happens 10 times in a row what am I going to do not say some shit that's called And no, I don't care. I love my parents. They did everything for me. I'll help them move. But, like, it's just, you know, I'll come home two weeks on the road.
Starting point is 00:09:37 I'm going to come by and see y'all. Oh, great. Hey, funny you mention it. We had a goddamn old China cabinet that weighs 400 fucking pounds just in the garage. Can you do it by yourself? Well, Corey, you know, unlike you, I'm appreciative of what your parents have given me. I'm staying in this guest house. I open with I'm appreciative.
Starting point is 00:09:56 It's just that dad, dad decided. It does look really good. Your dad, you know, has had some issues. Yeah, so he can't. live shit. He did immediately. Everybody did immediately start talking about how fat I was and that I was wearing.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Corey? Dude, listen. Corey, even your dad said, are you wearing them pants because you've been gaining weight? If anybody knows, the black sweat pants game is my dad. And he was telling like thumbs up. He was telling like thumbs up.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Then he told a story. Some friend he had who was older than him who's since past who he was like his buddy who was like 70 and like on his last leg or whatever. and he used to drive him to the Lady Valls basketball games. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And he was talking about this old boy saw your dad in some lady Valls
Starting point is 00:10:37 or some kind of pants and was like, and was like, you reckon they got them in Lady Vals colors. And you're definitely like, sure. But, yeah, there's fat lesbians. Yes. It's almost exclusive in my experience. That was shitty and not true. I know. I set you up for a shitty thing, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:10:53 And then he took him to a UT ball game. They stopped at them all and they got him some, but this old boy was so fat. Clarence. he had to get like double XLs. So Clarence was fat, but Clarence was also 5-2. Yeah. So he couldn't wear him that day because he was too long.
Starting point is 00:11:08 So he took to Taylor's right? Next time he saw Clarence, Clarence took his lady ball jogging britches to a tailor. Not an old me-mile. You just said a fucking tailor. No, Clarence had money. Yeah. And he's not. He's him-d-up.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Well, yeah, he's your dad's friend. And your dad's talking about Clarence's crotch came down to his fucking calves. Yes. Because anybody got him tailored off? He's like, they would have hit me like shorts. Uh-huh. Your dad was telling us this while we were moving. Uh, what is essentially, um, I forgot in the word.
Starting point is 00:11:38 What do they climb into in that, uh, story with the, ornia? Wardrobe. A wardrobe, yeah. Mom got a wardrobe and she wanted to paint it. She bought it used for $95. She told me. And it looks good, by the way. It looks good.
Starting point is 00:11:48 And she painted it blue and it looks good. It's like wicker with real wood. And buddy. Right. Dude, it's fucking. When we picked it up, I guarantee, there's no doubt. Me and DJ started down a step. We were going to sit it on some saw horses in your yard so she could paint.
Starting point is 00:11:59 so she could paint it. When we started down the steps, I got like a telegram from my back. Yeah, yeah. That was like, no. Yeah, yeah. Set it down. No, right now.
Starting point is 00:12:09 So we had to go down real quick. And then I just, I did the rotate. I went over to DJ's side and pretend, I was like, oh, let me get over here and show you. And I was like, DJ, just fucking go over there and pick that up because I can't. My back was fucking shot. And so I had to put all the weight on my shoulders, you know, my large, very sculpted shoulders. You are looking good for the record, if I may.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we. And we carried it to the saw horse or whatever, carried it back and then your mom started telling us about how make sure you tell Corey we've done this to you because he'll think it's so funny because he says we always do it to him and then she goes but since he started saying that we have been doing it to him on purpose yeah absolutely yeah of course she did and she's probably going to be furious that you told me this even though i'm not going to bring it up i'm just never going to come over here again your dad might
Starting point is 00:12:48 dad may he's been listening to the podcast also i want to say this because dad may not give you the visual on what clarence actually looked like i know he said it was a five two fat guy but just for everything, Clarence looked like if Regis Philbin had a peanut allergy and ate a bunch of peanuts. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He was that type of short and squatty, you know what I'm saying? He got stung by bees all over his body. They have really, though, had
Starting point is 00:13:10 the best thing like, Drake came over here. We went and played with the dogs for a bunch of... Rees. Yeah, we're, yeah, she's such a sweet little buddy. So, we had... Tell her about what we're doing. Oh, sorry, go ahead, DJ. I didn't mean to cut you up, baby. I was just talking about dogs. Go ahead. We came over here. Oh, you got the shirt on.
Starting point is 00:13:26 why you said nice hat you yeah yeah yeah so uh shovels and rope that is yeah corin hat matches dj's shirt everybody yeah yeah yeah remember we're on a podcast guys what yeah yeah so anyway yeah so and dj also is no longer a visual medium oh so you're dad dude literally everybody listen i had maybe i was like oh dj them's the only pants that would fit you and then like i heard dray do it but it's like we're the two people in his life who give him the most shit and your dad. Immediately.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Immediately. It was like, DJ, you're wearing them pants because it's, those fit you better now that you've gained from weight.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Just immediately. That's so fucking great. But I told DJ, I'm sincerely not making fun of him for being fat because he's not at all. No, he ain't fat.
Starting point is 00:14:12 He just weighs. Corey. He used to not weigh. I don't know if you've hung out with him other than we've been on the road with him for more than like 10 hours.
Starting point is 00:14:21 When I tell you this some bitch eats six meals a day, that's it. He eats six. six meals. Yeah, he's an addict. It's been like chicken wings and beer all day. He got here today at 11 a.m.
Starting point is 00:14:36 And he was like kind of dancing around. And I was like, oh, he's had some beer. I go, DJ, you got a little bit of a buzz going? He's like, I've only had two beers. He goes, I go, oh, yeah. Did you eat though? Is that why maybe you got an extra buzz? Because he didn't eat?
Starting point is 00:14:47 He goes, yeah, I ate. You know, I had some eggs and sausage. And then some chicken wings on the way over here. It was 10.30 a.m. God damn, yeah, an addict. Before you got here, he was like, man, you want to order a pizza? Yeah. Dude, with them sideburns in like too much, you're just going to be fat Elvis like a motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:15:05 Dude, I can't wait either. I can't wait either. And like, Drey hates it because what? You know why we hated it? We figured it out this morning. I don't remember. Jealousy. Oh, that's right.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Drey hates that he, hold on, Dre's jealous of how much you eat. No. So, Jay hates that he's getting fat, but the reason that Drey, me, Dale, everyone is commenting on it is anyone who knows DJ knows that he has every right to eat. He should eat. Yeah. He waited 35 years. Yes, DJ is a person. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:15:39 He should eat extra. He should. He's got to make up for lost time. 35 years. Yeah. We all know that. Yeah. And so we recognize that what's happening right now is DJ gets to eat the way we all want to eat.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Yeah. and not feel any smudge of shame of guilt. Because he needs it. His body needs it. There's parts of his body that haven't got nutrients in decades. Because it's trickled down fat anomics. No, this is 100. This all checks out.
Starting point is 00:16:06 It's the opposite of like when someone's like been in church their whole life and they've never drank, never smoked, never done nothing. Then they turn 25 and all of a sudden they decide to take a drug or whatever and they just go fucking off the rails. That's him with food though, but it's good. Instead of worrying about them, we're all feeling better. Fuck yes, son, get that cassero. He's like, y'all ever ate a peach? And we're like, yes.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Yes, sweet. So, we're all commenting on it. Because some part of us all is jealous of what's happening with DJ right now. Dude, 100% of it. Transforming. I feel like I was doing. And also, let's face it, it don't matter what he looks like. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:51 Like, let's get it out there. There ain't nobody been like, I'll tell you what. I like DJ 4. He got fat. You know what I mean? I will say Dre is the only one who might be concerned about that. She's not a shallow person, but everybody wants to, you know. No, again, though, can you imagine him gaining 40 pounds in Dre being like, well, I can't be with him anymore? After everything she's been through, the whole time she's like, well, at least he had abs.
Starting point is 00:17:15 God damn. I know they had tattoos that he drew on them, but he still had. This is the veggie straw that broke the Campbell's bag. Dude, she was on the podcast that we heard that she was out here last time. We had Dre on. All right. Oh, dude. That's what we were going to tell.
Starting point is 00:17:35 We are in the guest house of Casa Dela Forrester, which I think they like that except in Spanish. Yeah, everything but the Mexican part, they were really into on that. And I'm very sincere. so grateful that they allowed us to come here. I told your dad a while ago, and I'd stayed here before, but it had been a while, and I forgot how perfect it was. I told you, I was like, I'm going to stay in the guest house and record a podcast with DJ, and Corey's going to help us out, and then you had to go out of town, which we're going to talk
Starting point is 00:18:07 about that in a minute. And he was like, absolutely. Last time he was on the road with us. And, you know, he had... I know, and he remembered it. You have no idea how much my mind is blown. Well, and then he had a... We've talked about it, right?
Starting point is 00:18:18 Yeah, I talked about it on the podcast. He had a little heart attack. He had a heart attack. and, you know, which what a dickhead thing for him to do to me, you know, like right before I was going to come here. Tell it. Yeah. And I didn't want to bother him or your mom. I don't want to bring it back up. I already had this plane ticket. I was already doing it. So me and DJ were looking into hotels or Airbnbs.
Starting point is 00:18:38 And then, and then, unlike your dad who was selfish in having a heart attack, Amber's grandmother selflessly died so that I could stay in your house. 100%. God, I hope people are on board with this joke because it just sounds more and more. I was sitting here thinking I was like, God damn, I hope he's... So I was like...
Starting point is 00:18:55 I maintained this is the truth. I was like... I was like, oh, Corey, I'll just stay... That woman was a saint. I'll just stay at your place, which I did the night I got here, by the way. And, uh, because I got here late.
Starting point is 00:19:07 And then you didn't want me to do that because you're selfish. No, that wasn't it. Mom had already cleaned out here. Right. That's what I was... It's all been a bit so far, calling people who aren't selfish, but right now...
Starting point is 00:19:18 Yeah, I wouldn't give it a fun. What really happened is turns out your dad remembered yeah I dude you have no idea how blown it all because like I and your mom cleaned
Starting point is 00:19:29 which does make me feel bad no no you shouldn't because it gave her a reason to she was sick she goes I'm so glad this happened because I've been needing to clean out there for a while hadn't had a reason and then I had a reason to see a beer can you know how southern women are
Starting point is 00:19:42 they just need a goddamn excuse to clean yeah it's true well and an and a thing to distract herself with I guess yeah yeah I am her son so I feel like so bad that you know
Starting point is 00:19:52 they did all that and so good like you know cared for or whatever so anyway they remembered I got here fucking look at these
Starting point is 00:20:00 slippers they got you slippers they got you slippers there's a lufus there's a lufus there's a brand new loof there's plastic still on it
Starting point is 00:20:07 look at that yeah she she called me and she goes hey what is what is Drew like for snacks and dry
Starting point is 00:20:13 I said don't get that motherfucker anything and she's like no Corey I just when someone stays in my house I want to be like
Starting point is 00:20:19 the Martha the Stewart of chicken. Yeah, except for she ain't shit at the stock market. Well, you can try to turn us into negative all you want, and I understand, because you had to live through years of, it's your right to say whatever you want about that saint of a woman. I was really shitting on you. There was Lecroy?
Starting point is 00:20:37 Yeah. There was bananas. I told her to get that. There was fucking, he didn't have nothing to do with it. He's trying to take credit. Now, for the record, she probably would have landed on that. But she said, what do you like? And I said, well, he's, you know, he's kind of queer.
Starting point is 00:20:49 I have fucked up all those cookies over. DJ had all the Milano cookies. Which ever time I hear of Milano cookies, I think it's racist. No, that's Malato is racist. You know what they were doing because it's a chocolate and a vanilla. Yeah, they knew.
Starting point is 00:21:03 Oh, yeah, they just put an N in there. Yeah, that'll always do it. You know what'll make this not sound racist? A big old N. They knew the letter R was off the table. All right. We've been recording a podcast that DJ, Well, I've been kicking around in my head for a long time.
Starting point is 00:21:22 We did like a quote-unquote teaser episode of it once on our feed, into the abysket where I talked to Trey about his dead dad. But the concept has changed a lot in terms of what I'm going to do with the podcast since then, but the theme has not at all. DJ and I have spent all weekend drinking beers, swimming in your parents' pool, moving very heavy furniture. This is literally just my high school experience. You know, so far.
Starting point is 00:21:47 Yes. Yes, and then sitting in a room alone and talking about the void. Yeah. It's all there. Did you all listen to a lot of disturbed and think it was the best thing you've ever heard? No, no, we did listen to Dre Talk, and she is very disturbed, and I thought it was the best thing I've ever heard. You heard of Lamb of God, my Lord. We had her on an episode.
Starting point is 00:22:07 We've had people call in, so I guess to tease it out a little bit, and I don't know when it's going to come out. It kind of depends on whether or not DJ and I can record cross-country. If we can't, frankly, it's going to be a little while. it'll probably be December before I put it out. Well, there's programs. Yeah, I feel like we could be in my day. But programs, not a thing DJ likes very much. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:26 I'm having about it. Program systems, things like that. And I don't blame. Rules. But if we can figure that out, we will. We'll put it out soon. But we have people call in. And we're doing what we're doing, Corey.
Starting point is 00:22:40 I'll just explain it to you. And then hopefully people will get it. And if they don't, they'll just have to listen. It's kind of. of a parody, although not really, we're basically pretending it's a parody of a morning radio show. Sure. DJ and I are the host of End of the Abisket, Hollerville's number one, morning, noon, and night, radio show on 1069.69.6969. An imprint of Valholler, LLC.
Starting point is 00:23:04 Valholler, yes, we're doing fake commercials, which is where Valholler LLC came from. When he had did it on the podcast, our podcast, that first time, it's because him and I had already discussed this concept, and he just, you know, of course, the first thing he said, yeah, baby, like a place instead of burying you, because we will bury some bitch, they throw you parties. And I'm like, yeah, you got it immediately. This is incredible. Yeah, we and Amber listened to that podcast
Starting point is 00:23:25 yesterday going on the road. She goes, I want to hear some of y'all stuff. One with DJ on it, we started listening to that. And, dude, there was a line in there that I forgot about that killed me. I was talking about how my granny, when we used to go to funeral, she would always look at the dead person and go, oh, they look just like themselves. And I go, no, they don't.
Starting point is 00:23:40 And you go, yeah, I don't remember her eyes being so shut. Anyways, go on with your pitch. I'm sorry to derail you. Well, no, I'm not doing a pitch. I'm just going to explain it to you sincerely because I don't even know how to do the pitch. Let me explain it to a fellow comedian. So the commercials, most of the time, are callbacks. So we do a segment for like 20 minutes and we say, all right, we're throwing it to a commercial break.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Yeah. And then the commercial will be a callback to something we've already discussed. Yeah, it hits. And it puts less pressure on DJ and I as far as premises go. and then more pressure as far as jokes. Like, we've got to follow up the funny thing with a funnier thing. So that's been a lot of fun. And especially when it's not so funny.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Yeah, death. Because we've had, yeah, death, anxiety. Like, dude, people have really been, like, calling in, calling in and, like, really laying their hearts out. And I can't wait for folks to hear it. It runs the gamut. Yeah, dude, it really does. It's, like, everything from, I got embarrassed one time at a talent show,
Starting point is 00:24:41 so it's kind of lighthearted. A little bit of darkness, because the old poor old girl had a panic attack. to during the middle of a talent show yeah to my little puppy died which is dark but then I hid in the woods and shot my neighbor's truck because of that all the way to
Starting point is 00:24:56 fucking dead kids and dead parents did shit like yeah really that's been the call in stuff and that's just that is hilarious yeah yeah yeah well yeah well yeah yeah well yeah well yeah well I'll tell you what and that's just the fans you're talking about what me and DJ no I can't even imagine yeah yeah we've been going there
Starting point is 00:25:12 but it's really been here we revisited mason the butthole Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay, cool. I shared that story today. Yeah, yeah. I forgot I didn't tell y'all about the hot dog tray that started the entire. He told it on ours, but he didn't tell it on well.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Go on. Well, some bitch wouldn't give him a hot dog tray, and then I snapped. And then I was just a huge fight, and I punched the police, and it was crazy. They kicked him down a hallway, up some stairs, into the elevator. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They beat me all the way up, up the elevator, back down, and then went back up before they took me to the... It was full circle. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Because he won't state hot-d-d-d-d-old. Exactly. Yeah, it was like an escape room for fat kids. Just put them in an elevator. All right. I think that's really cool, man. And one of the things that we've like, we keep on coming up to is like, man, these stories, they're like so real. They're so awesome.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And like at the end of them, it's always like some bright, shining instance of an individual overcoming some. We've been inspired, which I know is cheesy. crazy, dude. And honestly, you made a joke earlier about all those things being funny. You know, yeah, like, hilarious, death, kids, all that. But the truth is, you can make those funny. Honestly, you know. Yeah, Ricky Jervais does it on every single six-part show he does.
Starting point is 00:26:27 It's so hard to make inspiration funny unless you're making fun of someone for being faking inspirational. And we don't. Like, it's like, it gets it in. It's like, there's no jokes to make at this point, man. Like, y'all are kicking ass. And I think the theme that's emerged and I hope people get on board with it. And I think some people, I think the people, I think the people,
Starting point is 00:26:44 either going to get it or they're not and i think the people who like it are going to love it that is your brand buddy i think the people who like it are going to love it and the people you are the vienna sausage of comedy it's like look if you like this shit by god it's your favorite fucking thing but if you don't it's a barbecue on it man we can slather it well dude on that note being dj we've been drinking all day and we were done recording and we had a little bit of a heart to heart and we got emotional telling each other how we really felt about each other and like man when i first come with any of the abisket i i liked the pun more than anything else sure that's how a lot of great ideas start better southerner but i was like i am this dark creature i don't know what the
Starting point is 00:27:28 fuck the right phrasing is i'm i get obsessed over these dark things you know when i was eight year old i started having panic attacks because broken heaven scared me yeah i think it's broken broken not broke bitch there you and uh it's been both in my life but trying to figure out how to do it. Wanting to talk about these things, but put the comedic spin on it. And then one day I was talking to DJ about the idea. And he, I don't even know what he said to me. I mean, it was probably something like, hell yeah, baby.
Starting point is 00:27:55 Like when your dog looks at you and you think about killing yourself. I don't know. I don't know what it was. That'll do. But I was like, oh, I need you. Yeah. No, but yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:09 I don't want it. Yeah. But it feels so good. Vienna sausage. Yeah. Yeah. Biana sausage, exactly. Like the first time you got something put up your butt.
Starting point is 00:28:17 You didn't want it, but it felt good. I'll tell you what, y'all, y'all, don't that yet? I say, I can't do it. I have a hemorrhoid. Okay. It just burns. Wait, you can't put something, you have a constant hemroid? It's called an external, what is it called?
Starting point is 00:28:33 A fissure. Yeah, they don't hit. They don't hit. I don't know that mine is constant, but I know that I get one a lot because I just bleed out my ass. Yep. I'm not constantly bleeding. Yeah. But anytime you try to put something up my butt, I feel that.
Starting point is 00:28:46 Oh, yeah. Anytime I try to put something up my butt, I feel it. But the day you don't, that's what you need to worry. Well, I meant I felt the fissure, but that's hilarious. Right. So it don't hit for me. So I can't. Go.
Starting point is 00:29:01 He's into it. I've tried. Go. Because it's one of those things for me. It's like enough people have told me that it hits. Oh, there's no way it don't. It does hit, but I can't do it. Well, I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:29:10 It's for you. Yeah, a lot more than it for her. or our sheets. What? Something up your butt? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Pulled out the guy
Starting point is 00:29:20 that tapper on that motherfucker. So that's basically what into the abyss is about shitting your sheets. Yeah, that's, and I felt way better. Anyway. Anyway. Anyway, I wanted, I wanted to do it with DJ and, man,
Starting point is 00:29:41 I don't know if it's just, all the goodwill or moving furniture for your parents or what it is, but I feel really good about it. Man, I feel so good. It really surpasses all my expectations, the calls we've had, the people that we've talked to.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Everything about it has been better. Well, and something that I'm very proud of. Well, hey, man, let's go back. We did it a little bit on our podcast, but it's not going to be out for months. So who cares today? You know, when I started comedy,
Starting point is 00:30:10 we always go back Corey when we talk about the beginnings of well red like chain smoking on a porch talking about we could be not Larry the cable guy but not David Cross and all that but let's go back to before that you know what I mean before we met or when we first started meeting right you know like when you wouldn't talk to me yeah you know um I mean I looked up to y'all and yeah yeah yeah yeah uh no but I mean I do but like as comedians, y'all were like the funniest people in the area.
Starting point is 00:30:44 Me and Trey had just started and like, look, I'm not trying to be a dick. There's some exceptions. Jeff Blank comes to mind. But me and Trey were pretty much the funniest fucking people. Absolutely. With some people who could challenge for that.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Grady Ray also comes to my... Anyway, come down Chattanooga, meet you guys. That's the beginning of it. DJ got the theme, but didn't get the concept at all. And he didn't say that, but I could tell. And that's why I said to you, I'm not going to do a pitch, because I don't even know how to pitch it.
Starting point is 00:31:14 Sure. I was like, yeah, it's like a parody of morning radio, but we're going to do commercial. And he was like, oh, yeah, baby, you know, yeah, hell yeah. But you could see it in his eyes. Yeah, you know what I mean? The sheer nothingness. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like that time he got maced in the butthole.
Starting point is 00:31:27 Yeah, yeah. It sounded like a good idea, but he was afraid it was going to hurt. Exactly. So, I think, like, episode two that we recorded, and who knows what order they're going to go in, he was like, baby, we're making it. and art. Yeah. And I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:44 And he goes, not and all, man, but it all ties together. Like it's meta. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I did, I did. I ordered it out on it. I was like, yeah, man, that's like the point. And he goes, yeah, but like,
Starting point is 00:31:54 the commercials tie into the phone calls. And the phone calls tie into the segments. And we're giving people this space to like relieve this shit. And I love space. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Yeah. Yeah. And space is my favorite mess, even though it scares me sometimes. And we're going to talk about that. And we're going to give people. And I'm like, yeah, man, that was, that was my goal. It's not just us. It's not just us having a voice.
Starting point is 00:32:15 We're giving a voice to anybody. It's so crazy because you don't realize, like, in these incidents, like, this regular people that you might meet on Twitter, might see you on Facebook. Did we have some, like, well-read fans call in? Oh, yeah. How would it not be? Yeah. Way Carwell called in.
Starting point is 00:32:34 And when Wade, yeah. Went way. Well, did he? Buddy. Yeah. Can you believe it? I know him better than me. But he needs to have a podcast called Wadden in the Deep End.
Starting point is 00:32:43 God, dude. That's somebody's brown. Anyway, I don't want to, like, you know, overstated it. But go ahead. Well, I was just saying these people, like, we know that as humans, we all are going through this human trial.
Starting point is 00:33:00 We're all doing this human thing, this human journey, and it's full of, like, all kind of weird shit. You know what I'm saying? And we're trying to, like, do the best of we can. but you hear these stories he's absolutely and people are like saying no what they they've never said anything about it they've never told us like oh man I've never talked about that you guys made me feel calm and it's sloverho's said that yeah yeah and his is fine don't even yeah it's dark
Starting point is 00:33:24 oh but it's great it's uh you know how cool he is no I do know how cool he is and I've seen way dark I've seen some stories he shared on Twitter that were hilarious but if you like start peeling away the jokes that he did and just look at the baseline I'm like this boy's got some darkness in him. I mean, there wasn't, there weren't no jokes, man. No, it wouldn't do it.
Starting point is 00:33:42 We're going to get a good joke out of that one. And he gave us a... Oh, yeah, we got to call him back and be like, look, this is the bit we're going to do based upon this. And he was like, buddy, whatever you...
Starting point is 00:33:52 Here's what he said. Whatever you got to do to make it digestible, son. That's so fucking hilarious. He's great. All right, so anyway, I don't want to overstate it because now a party feels like it's going to come out,
Starting point is 00:34:01 people can make, man, that sounds incredible and it's going to come out and be like, all right, well, whatever. I still don't think in my mind, I still don't think they have any idea what the fuck's coming to. No, because me and you are drunk as shit at noon. What? Trying to just find it. Well, you know, it's art and there's commercials, but not really.
Starting point is 00:34:16 And you guys get it. There's arts that's a radio show and then there's commercials. DJ. You are beautiful. At the end of the month. Beautiful. So. 26th.
Starting point is 00:34:25 27th. What? Lexington? Yeah. Can you come? Yeah. Can you be there for that weekend? Sure, of course.
Starting point is 00:34:32 I'm driving. So you just ride up a man. Right up with Corey. So you do the show with us that weekend as our special guests. We're announcing it right now on the well-ragged podcast. If you're listening from Kentucky, DJ, DJ-Lewis, that's what I've been calling him. Dr. D-J-D-J-D-J-Gal. Skinny bumpkin, not fat bumpkin.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Oh, you've got to change your name. I believe that. Plumpy Dumplis. Skinny Pumpkin's alter ego plump dumpling is going to be with us in Lexington. And what we're going to do is we're going to take more calls. We'll announce it on End of the Abisket. that's I-N-T-O-T-H-E-A-B-I-S-C-U-I-T, into the Abisket on Twitter at End of the Abisket.
Starting point is 00:35:08 We'll announce it there. What topics we're going to cover. We're going to have people call in while we're in Lexington. That'd be fire. It'd be fire. One thing, and I'm sorry, my mind just went here. We were thinking about musical. Have you heard Chris's beat?
Starting point is 00:35:24 Chris Robertson? Yeah. Hell yeah, man. Oh, my fucking God. Sorry. No, no. That just happened. We were a weird thing about music.
Starting point is 00:35:30 Have you heard what? I mean, have you heard the rap, Put to them. God. Yeah, did you listen to Dance with Scissors? Yes. That's my anthem, man. I don't even know what to do with it.
Starting point is 00:35:38 No, I'm like, he was asking me, it was like, you know, you want to jump on these tracks. And I'm like, man, I don't want to embarrass myself anymore. Yeah, that's what I said when he's like, dude, that is so fucking, I think we should put Chris on. Let's put, put dance with scissors out on this. Can we do it on this episode? I'll ask him because, you know, Chris can be, I mean, I'm, I know he's proud of it. Well, fuck him. Do it anyway.
Starting point is 00:35:57 You know, I'm going to ask him just in case. Yeah, yeah, for sure. Sorry, I don't know why that just jumped in my head. No, man. I was listening to it actually earlier. I mean, apparently because we need him on Into the Abisket and the Will Red Party. He would be a great into the Abisket guest, I'm sure. Dude, I guarantee that.
Starting point is 00:36:10 I've done Ashton with that some bitch. Listen. No, I mean, if anybody... No, he's doing great work and the motherfucker can do it. Dude, the motherfucker's doing what he needs to do. What about how, like, when you're a comedian and you hang out with comedians, you just get used to being able to... Not even being able. Like, it's not even like it's necessarily a privilege.
Starting point is 00:36:27 What I'm getting at is I was like, yeah, Chris, I've done acid with that motherfucker fucker and then I'm like, yeah, yeah, I probably shouldn't say that. Yeah, yeah, no, for sure. Yeah. Well, the problem is that we keep forgetting that there are people that listen to our bullshit. Because, like, for so long, that just was not the case. Yeah, no one at all. We wanted them to, but nobody was.
Starting point is 00:36:46 And now we still act like that. And then we're like, oh, shit, you heard that. All right. That brings up a question. Go ahead. No, I say that, that really makes me scared about some of the things that we go into. It's like people listening to some of things. It's kind of fearful.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Do not think about that or it will fuck us up. Ruin me. All right. Well, because we just have to, that's another thing about recording so many episodes before we put it out. Yeah. We don't have to think about really who's listening. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:37:15 We don't have to get in our head too much about it because we're not getting that feedback. That feedback's going to start coming in, but we've already got 10 episodes. We're doing the damn thing, you know? Oh, damn. What I wanted to ask you. You know, 10? We've got close. We've done eight, I think.
Starting point is 00:37:29 We're going to try to get to... Well, I'm only going to get one more, I think, for this weekend. I'd like to get two or three in Lexington. I know we're going to have a lot of more stuff to do. Take some more phone calls, you know, and really, really get it done. And by the way, if we can do that, fuck it. I'll start putting it out in the middle of October. Fuck it.
Starting point is 00:37:49 We're putting it out October 15-ish. There you go. There we go. Middle of fall, which is my favorite fucking time of the year in East Tennessee. It's a middle of fall. Middle of October. Dude, it's unbelievable. It starts to get chilly.
Starting point is 00:38:00 The dark beers are hitting harder when it starts to get chilly. There's the smell in there that makes me horny. I can't describe it. It's been getting hot here during the day or whatever, but there's been some mornings where you wake up and you can feel fall coming. And we just cut our yard last week and I got up in the morning and it was like the do was happening and it was like a little chilly. And it smelled. It smelled just like football.
Starting point is 00:38:23 You know what I mean? I felt like I could start. I literally, I don't know if this ever happens to you, but like when I smell that grass, the memory of the scent of my shoulder pads enters my head and I can smell the fieldhouse and it's the weirdest fucking thing. And I get so goddamn jazz for college football. So jazz for everything about fall in the south because as you said, it is the, oh, it's the fucking best. Bonfires, titties. I was telling DJ the other day.
Starting point is 00:38:45 I played football from four to like 20. We're going to pay me. Maybe 21. Yeah. And sometimes, you know, you and Trey really vibe out or geek out on football season and sometimes I'm super with it. And sometimes I'm like over it because I played. for so long and I played for longer than you and him and all you know it's like I got over it maybe and that culture especially college football culture I used to do jokes about it was such a gnarly
Starting point is 00:39:07 thing the smell is the one thing that will never be ruined oh it's so good the smell of the fall and the cut grass and making me think about football nothing can taint that memory I don't care how many times people on the college football team you know called me a faggot because I was a liberal or whatever it's not I'm not gay so it didn't like hurt my feelings it was just that was their way of me but that culture's toxic and football's weird and blah blah blah nothing will ever ruin the smell no the smell is absolutely fantastic but also like i won't say panic attacks but uh sometimes when i smell it i genuinely get so lost in the smell that i feel like i'm about to have to suit up and go to practice and i get like a i still i still have nightmares about forgetting plays word
Starting point is 00:39:52 i have uh i don't have nightmares about forgetting plays but i have nightmares about waking up and my mom being like coach mac just called you just missed workouts he's on his way over here and i'm like thing kind of thing right i'm just like fuck oh my god i got you're worried about missing workout i'm worried about fucking the play up but it's still the same kind of anxiety absolutely um what i wanted to ask you we were talking about you said we forget sometimes people are actually listening you were just in iowa we'll get into why you're in iowa if you want to i'm curious if you're in laws or your family. Has anyone
Starting point is 00:40:31 brought up anything you've said on stage or on the podcast to you as far as mind control. ESP? No. Only my wife.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Okay. But only because and I didn't know she has a teacher at her school that she didn't realize until a couple weeks ago was a fan of ours.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Right. And the weird thing is he's not a new fan. He's been listening to our podcast for like a year and a half. She didn't tell her. And just hasn't told her yet. And she texts me and she's like, what the fuck have you been saying about me on the podcast? And I was like
Starting point is 00:41:08 nothing incriminating, I don't think. Yeah, it's legal to drink. Yeah. And so we went through that whole thing and I was like, why don't you just ask him? And he's like, no, no, no, absolutely. I just talk about you and whatever. And she's like, okay, thank God. And I'm like, you don't, you know, I wouldn't ever say. Did you message that guy? No, no, absolutely not. Well, that guy is smart enough. Listen, you've never said anything horrible. He likes us and therefore likes her.
Starting point is 00:41:30 She's very likable. First off, let me say this, for the record. Amber doesn't do anything incriminating that would jeopardize her job because she is a saint and a great person. Incriminating and jeopardize your job are two very different. Well, that's true.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Thresholds? Was he fangirling out because she was Amber? No, no, no. He's known her before. He's been listening for a year and a half working with her. They've been friends and he just brought it up to her. Oh, by the way, you know, I'll listen to your husband's podcast. All right, so here's one.
Starting point is 00:41:55 Not at all. He ain't even tried. to meet mine. Well, that's how much of a nothing that that is. I realize that that would make a person paranoid, but it would just be like kind of like... All right, right. But anyways, no, I don't think...
Starting point is 00:42:07 I haven't had anybody say like, hey, man, you shouldn't have fucking said that. So here's one, and this is mostly in my head, I think, but it might not be, and this is very intriguing. We put our album out. A good time starts with a great wardrobe. Next stop, J.C. Penny. Family get-togethers to fancy occasions,

Starting point is 00:42:56 Yeah. At the very end of my sense... I tell a story. Let's take a break from the podcast real quick to talk about our friends at modern CBD.

Starting point is 00:48:31 and he was hammered drunk the year before good for him in the church yeah when I first started writing how else are you going to do that yeah when I first started writing the joke he tried to get me to go get drunk with him in the parking line and drink more
Starting point is 00:48:44 you were like no that's a different drunk ain't it yes church parking lot drunk god damn and when I first started writing the joke I was talking about how like the joke was like this is a trap you know I was raised Baptist like somebody's trying to offer you booze
Starting point is 00:48:58 in the way in that's a trap Baptists don't drink till after church when no other Baptists are around. Exactly. There's some Methodist shit right here. Wait, wait, wait. So I'm not used to. So you were citing against the Baptist? I'm not siding against.
Starting point is 00:49:10 You were like, you're not a Baptist. You're not like me. I'm not siding against everyone. I'm saying that against. Because that's how I would follow it. That's what it sounds like. It's like you're saying you're like not one of us. No, I'm clearly be like how we go.
Starting point is 00:49:22 To a tribal place and I love it. I'm not saying. How many other drugs do you have in that car? Yeah, because we're going to need all of them. to get to this play. Right. Probably should have taken that mentality. We're going to need all them to get through this play.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Yeah. But the joke, and I didn't do any of this. But you're a Methodist. Get out of here. They're Presbyterian. I didn't do anything. I was, but what I'm saying is, just as a joke,
Starting point is 00:49:45 it was, this dude's trying to trap me. I know this game. They'll invite him to the parking lot to drink, then you get them out there, and you're going to proselytize to him, trying to save a soul or whatever. You know, fuck that.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Is that a game that goes on in Sunbright? Hold on. Yeah. I've never heard of that game. DJ, do you know how jerks work? You just make shit up. I know a motherfucker that comes up. I know a motherfucker that comes up and says,
Starting point is 00:50:07 hey, let's get fucked up in the parking lot before the service. It's a motherfucker who's trying to get fucked up before the service. Right, right. I know. Me too. Open and showcase. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Yeah, me too, DJ. This is just a joke about the difference. Oh, you were joking. Yeah, I'm talking about a joke I wrote. Right. So anyway, DJ. DJ Sorry, I thought you were like Europe
Starting point is 00:50:33 I thought you married that for real No, I went to the parking lot with him And had a shot What are you, Wesleyan? Shut the fuck up! This feels like church This is the church of red ass And I have been found to be in sin
Starting point is 00:50:50 Thou shalt not deny Booz No one was Methodist I was raised Baptist He was Presbyterian in the real world, he said, do you want to go have a drink? And I said, fuck yes, and we went and had a drink. But when I told a joke about it, I just made a comment about how, is this a dude trapping me?
Starting point is 00:51:09 Because I'm used to Baptist who might tell me. That was it. But then I started telling a joke like that. And I'm like, it might get on an album. And I didn't want to put him on blast on the album. Everybody in my family would know who it was. And I didn't want to be like coming across like this dude's getting drunk at church. Or put him, you know, they might judge that.
Starting point is 00:51:29 No, I feel that 100%. So I decided to change it. But I still wanted to talk about being fucked up at church. Right. So I said I was high at church. I wasn't high at church that night, but I've been high at church once before. So I blended the story of being high at church once before with the story of being there that night. And the story that night, DJ, just to catch you up, is my niece came in with a baby on her hip and she was laid.
Starting point is 00:51:52 I heard that. Yeah, so you know all that, right? Yeah. So I pretend to be high. Got that. So I pretend to be high in the story, in my opinion, or from where I'm coming from, to like save this dude some embarrassment or not to cause problems.
Starting point is 00:52:10 I know, I know the joke. This is probably, hold on, shut the fuck up. Boy, y'all have been together all weekend. I ain't never seen y'all talk to each other like this. This is hitting for me. It's probably a coincidence. No one on that side of the family has. called me since that album came out.
Starting point is 00:52:32 Word. Not on my birthday. Oh, shit, buddy. And I'm not upset by that. Like, whatever, but I feel like they think I get high at church. Do they normally call you on your birthday and everything? A couple of them do. Or text me.
Starting point is 00:52:45 And maybe they mess to me on Facebook and I missed it. Now, I've been home once since then. It didn't feel tense or awkward. But, you know, they're Presbyter's. Good for you. They're very good at, you know. Yeah, how did that? How did you get it?
Starting point is 00:52:57 Dude, I can't believe you don't let, you don't think that I, Or you were just explaining that to the listeners If they have to see him He was so Mad at me No he wasn't mad He was so upset that you thought he didn't listen to the album Yeah yeah yeah yeah upset mad yeah he doesn't have mad
Starting point is 00:53:13 That's true He gets slightly perturbed and red up He was hurt No yeah he was hurt I was hurt I was for the listeners I've genuinely never seen you mad Now let me say this
Starting point is 00:53:24 I've not seen you fired the fuck up Yeah But I wouldn't But you were never it's weird that's weird I've known you for a long time happy about violence I've seen you
Starting point is 00:53:35 violent and you aren't mad I know it you were just violent you weren't mad you were just like look some shit's going on I'm gonna fuck it up but I'm happy to be here
Starting point is 00:53:42 I was gonna stab my fuck over Matt Mitchell one night couldn't have been couldn't have been happier about it is a New Year's Eve I was like here we go
Starting point is 00:53:51 that's what I'm referring to like you were extremely violent and got shit done but there wasn't nothing mad to you you didn't know the story you were just like we got to go this done and here I'm gonna get this individual up out of here as soon as possible.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Do you think it's in my head? What? I would, I mean, okay. If you were anyone but you, I would just go, ah, it's in your head, buddy. But like, I don't know if they normally call you and now they don't. This only happened one time. What do you mean? What special about me?
Starting point is 00:54:18 Wait, ha, you haven't checked your Facebook for messages, for happy birthday messages from these people who might have just been like... What's special about you, by the way, is that you're my friend. In my message. I'm in on my wall. Yeah, yeah, on your wall. I don't know if they wrote it on my wall. I didn't check my wall. There's just a lot.
Starting point is 00:54:35 You know, there's like 300 people say it on your wall. So, and you didn't even like it. So they're, there might be some tension. I like the few, but I'm saying I might have missed it. But nothing from your family. So you might have missed the ones from your family who's in it. I don't think it was there.
Starting point is 00:54:47 Which is fine. This isn't about me, but I'm just wondering, I'm wondering if they're offended that I got high at their church services. Do you know that they heard the album? Here's why I think they did. The story is about one of them. And she's cool.
Starting point is 00:54:59 She loves it. I mean, I talk to her. I'm going to put this story about you coming in late, and she thinks it's the greatest fucking thing in the world. That's my niece. Jesse, shout out. You. I wonder, I think they may have heard it only because they heard there was a story about Jesse and their church.
Starting point is 00:55:12 Or she retold it. I also shit on their preacher, but. Ooh. That would do it. No. They hated the preacher. Okay. They claim it's because she's a Yankee.
Starting point is 00:55:21 I think it's because she's a she. A she? She? I'm about saying, Lord God, Mary, Mary, Delade over here. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Oh, yeah. Oh, that was, you know, definitely. And, you know, I called her a, what are they, a block of cheese. But either way, she's, she's a Yankee. His guy, it's just like, there's not even, people aren't even listening. Speaking of a block of cheese with hair. Speaking of she being a she, we were at the funeral. We were at the funeral this week in Iowa.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Okay, did it even? Yeah, you, yeah. Could the funeral be the wrong time to bring it up to you? Have your in-laws brought anything up to you? No, but here's. What about your family? They haven't, like, but my in-laws, okay. Well, you know, Amber's great.
Starting point is 00:55:58 Grandma, she keeps up with all the stuff that we do, but the only thing she ever comments on is that she doesn't like my mustache. That's literally it. Like every, she'll comment on stuff. Amber will be like, because I don't check my Facebook, but Amber will put up pictures of us and she'll just be like,
Starting point is 00:56:12 I just wish Corey would shave that mustache on every fucking picture. I just wish Corey would shave that mustache. But other than that, that was actually what I was kind of getting at, that Iowa people, even though they all go to church, they're all like Catholic and Lutheran type, which is very different.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Baptist, I guess. I mean, well, no, it just 100% is. So we're at the funeral, and it was like kind of a Catholic funeral, Catholic light-ish, and everybody was there, and then a woman goes up, and she's the preacher. And now, I'll preface it by saying, I obviously don't have a problem with that.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I don't think anybody should be preachers, I guess. I don't like religion, but like... What was the religion exactly? I think the grandma was Lutheran, but she did say stuff about the Catholic church, but there wasn't no, like, stand-up. I mean, the Lutherans was the first people to say, fuck you to the Catholic. Martin Luther was the guy who did that.
Starting point is 00:56:59 Yeah. Well, that's why... But that doesn't mean they're not Catholic. Amber... I'm just confused because Catholics aren't allowed to have
Starting point is 00:57:04 women's right. Well, all I know is Amber said this isn't a Catholic service, but she said something she goes and in the, and she was Irish, and she's like,
Starting point is 00:57:12 and into Catholic faith, yada, yada, yada. But then everything else wasn't super Catholic. Yeah, I don't know if that's good, but that's all I have. Into Catholic faith. No, that's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:57:21 I feel like... How hard did that hit? I mean, it is all right. I want to start a religion where the preachers are the people who can do the best accents. My point is, is that whenever there was a woman got up there to talk in a church for a funeral, I just wasn't used to it because we don't have that shit around here.
Starting point is 00:57:35 And I looked around and nobody's bat in a goddamn eye. Nobody said a fuck. I was expecting some people to say some shit just because of my conditioning. I was expecting there at least to be one old boy, just be like, that funeral would have been a lot better if they had a goddamn man's break out. Right, right, right, right, right. My point being, there's all that. Amber's grandpa, who is the widower now, he lives on a farm.
Starting point is 00:57:57 in Iowa. He was, worked for the post office, yada, y'all. Huge Obama fan. It was the first thing that me and him ever connected on. And the rest of the family is very apolitical. And, you know, I say that, like, used to apolitical I thought was the greatest thing in the world. I was like, oh, that's how you should
Starting point is 00:58:13 be, just like, don't give a fuck about anything. The more I get older and the more we progress, I'm like, yeah, the only people I know who are apolitical are just white people who it don't matter to. So, that... Why people who have a comfortable situation in life? 100%. Or are people so goddamn poor, But in Iowa, that seems like such a big deal.
Starting point is 00:58:30 That's what I'm saying is like... To be, especially in Iowa. Because trust me, there are... That's ground zero. Yeah, right. I saw plenty of Trump signs everywhere else. But like, so I said all that to say this. Her in-laws are either her grandpa who loved Obama and thinks Trump's a goddamn clown,
Starting point is 00:58:45 or they don't give a fuck about none of that. So like, I don't think I, there's anything I could say other than if I went up and did a joke, like, disparaging Amber or like, you know what I'm saying? If I did something personal, but I don't have any of that, really. So, no, I don't ever worry about getting blowback from them on, like, politics or how I feel about gay people or nothing like that, so no. Well, that particular joke was a worry for me because of the social context. I'm making fun of the liberal. How much would it be worse if they agree with you on your politics, but just thought your jokes suck?
Starting point is 00:59:17 That'd be so much worse. Dude, it would be so terrible. No, I hear you Trump sucks, but man. That structure was shit. You hate that one up. God damn. If I'm completely honest, I've never worried about that. but, hey, oh, there it goes.
Starting point is 00:59:28 But, um, no, like the social context of it, yes. But then also there, I mixed it with some personal, because Jesse was, you know, my niece was involved in the joke and blah, blah, blah. And look, I'm probably, it's probably, dude, honestly, they just don't think about me. Like, that's the truth. They didn't listen to my fucking album. Right. They didn't think about me on my birthday.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Not in a shitty way. Like, I just didn't come up. And when they do see me, they'll hug my neck and not give a fuck. That's the truth. But I'm just wondering if maybe, you know, blah blah blah. No, I mean, it's probably a coincidence. But I also don't know them.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Yeah, exactly. It's hard to say that because motherfuckers will. Like, some folks will. Yeah, they will cut it off. Do you think about that when you're writing jokes or doing podcasts? And should you? Buddy, I cannot control what comes out of my mouth. Okay, should you care or worry?
Starting point is 01:00:18 I would not be able to do that. Do you think I'm right to ask slobber hose, his permission? No. to make a make a joke to what we're doing what we're doing anything yes and now i'm talking about well now if they call in at that point okay you know that you're doing calling into a podcast and that's going on so you're like giving permission kind of yeah but what we're doing my niece if she was cool with the story should i have done that or cared if you yeah you should have well i won't say should have i'm not i don't want to be the moral authority on it but my opinion on that has changed over the
Starting point is 01:00:49 years kind of when i got married i guess and just grew up a little used to i'd just genuinely thought I was like, no, whatever, if I can make art out of something or any story, if it's for that, like it doesn't matter. My entire life. And anything, anything that said around me from my family, I'm allowed to take that because that's what it is. And sorry, you know, if you don't want to hang out of me, don't hang out with me or maybe keep your fucking mouth shut because it's going to wind up.
Starting point is 01:01:13 But like now, I'll think of a, like, I'll have a funny thing. I'll start writing it about something Amber did. And I'll be like, hey, is this okay? And she's like, no, that's fine. but I maybe, and as soon as she gives me the, I'm like, we don't have to talk it through it. If you felt a little uneasy about it, fuck it, I won't do it. Unless it's a banger.
Starting point is 01:01:30 You know what I'm saying? Exactly. That's what I'm saying. In which case, I'll fight for it. Exactly. You got to fight for your job. Well, how about you let me tell it first? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, it's so funny because Andy,
Starting point is 01:01:39 um, first of all, she supports art. So let me give the positive spin. She supports art because she is an artist so much that she doesn't care or tries not to care. But then also, she just likes attention. The fact that the jokes about her, you know, I mean, of course you could take that. Even if she's the villain. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Even if she's the villain, she's like, yeah. Yeah. There's a part of that joke on the album that is an observation I made about the way those Christmas plays break down in terms of what kids are going to be what roles. That. Was it fat shepherds? Yeah, yeah. Well, you gave away the lead there. Oh, I didn't know you were actually going into it.
Starting point is 01:02:16 I thought you weren't. My bad. I totally. My bad. And it wasn't. You skipped over it like you weren't going to describe it. It wasn't about a specific person. It was about that general observation, but that affected specific people in my life.
Starting point is 01:02:31 So I tried to like massage that and I didn't talk to that person about it. Got a lot of fat shepherds on that side of the family. My thing there was I hope that person doesn't ever think about it being about them. Sure. Because I was trying to make fun of people doing that because it's shitty. Make all the little blonde pretty kids angels. What a fucking shitty thing to do. Yeah, we always had a lot.
Starting point is 01:02:52 of Walmarns was the Angels and then all the, uh, all the younger kids. Wait, what am I talking about? I was in one play. Never mind. Now, for the record, I barely even remember that. I was in one play. The donkey talked, literally. I think as long as you change the person's name, it really don't matter.
Starting point is 01:03:07 And the reason I think that... I didn't say anybody's name. No, I'm just saying, I'm going back on what I had said before. Now, obviously, I can't just say my wife, Deborah, you know, but like, if I'm telling a story, and I do tell a story in my act that was pretty... I mean, obviously, I embellish. It's a joke. Like, the beats happened, you know.
Starting point is 01:03:25 And now that I think about it, I literally use both of their correct names, and I'm just going to change that. But, like, if I didn't put their names out there, then no new people could know who I'm talking about, and the only people who would know what I'm talking about were already there to see the fucking thing anyway. Right. So, like, hell, at least now you're getting it with a bow on it.
Starting point is 01:03:42 Right. Well, that's a weird thing about bait. But when we go in and talking about this, we're talking about jokes and, like, having to explain, like, It's a weird thing to be a low, like when you're doing just local jokes and you're just doing like where you, you ever have that thing where you're like you've got like a local material? And I don't know, this has had a problem with doing jokes about Chickamauga. Yeah. And then traveling and be up in like Minnesota or something like that.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Yeah, you just can't do it. Yeah. Yeah. That's my joke about Chickamauga. I have to, the first two minutes is just painting this little world. But at this point in time, everybody knows exactly what. where, but they know you and they know you this. By the time I do the civil war
Starting point is 01:04:25 town. Right, by the time I do the Civil War joke after that, I could say anything I wanted about Chickamauga, even if it was inside baseball and they'd be like, yeah, we get it. That's a big thing in New York with like subway jokes, but I just kind of was like, those jokes are only for New York, I just knew that going in. I don't want to get, personally, I don't want to get too inside
Starting point is 01:04:42 baseball and comedy. I want to know how the funeral was. Oh, you. This is a weird question. Even that question is weird. People go, how is the funeral? No, no, I know. Fucking, somebody was dead. No, I know what you mean. Well, first off, I'll be very candid in saying
Starting point is 01:04:56 Amber, Amber and her grandmother were as close as you can be with someone who has lived in Iowa and you've lived here your entire life. Sure. She saw her, you know, twice a year. And by the way, I'm not taking away from her grief even a little bit. Her goddamn grandmother died. No, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:11 But I guess it was, she was able to handle it a little bit differently than me when my grandmother died because I was with her every day, yada, yada, yada. granted my grandmother was 96 years old so I'd had more time to prepare for it her grandmother was only 72 wow very wow and I didn't really I'd never really process that because in my world the only grandmother I ever knew really was 68 when I was born right you know so like all I when I hear grandma I'm like oh yeah they old whatever I don't even look at I don't see age you know what I mean so when I got up there and realized she was 72 it made my heartbreak even more and for Amber because I look at my grandmother who died at 96
Starting point is 01:05:53 and I was like, man, how much life? Like, when you're a kid, you always think of 72, you're like, she had cancer and she'd had it a couple years ago and then it came back and you know the old that it's when it comes back. It shows up with its buddies. Sure, sure. When I found out she was 72 and I started processing all that and I was like, man, how much more life she had? Because 72 used to be just like, if I heard a 72 year old died, I was like, yeah, what did you expect? You know, they lived a good life, whatever. And like, back in the day, yeah, you lived to 75.
Starting point is 01:06:23 But, man, she had, she could have had 20 more years to see her. And they start talking about how we're walking up there. And they're like, all she talked about was how she couldn't wait to get to Chickamauga to see y'all's house because she thought it was up. And I'm like, oh, my God, what the fuck. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, again, Amber, Amber does, Amber's one of these people. I won't say emotionless husk, but I will. But she does that on purpose.
Starting point is 01:06:44 She really, she doesn't ever want to talk about her feelings with anybody. And she doesn't cry ever. But when she saw her papal by the casket, she really started boo-ho. And that's when I, again, as the 72, I was like, this guy, because he's a healthy guy. So it didn't really sink into her. You all are driving up there. She got the news. It didn't sink into me.
Starting point is 01:07:04 And I feel like a dickhead about it. Because, again, I was like, in my stupid brain, I was like, well, she seems to be taking it well. But that's just because Amber doesn't like, that's not how she projects her emotions. I'm going, well, she's taking it well. And, I mean, you know, she only saw her a couple times of you. and I know it's still hard, but like, she's doing better than I did during my, I'm sitting there going, I had it worse. Right.
Starting point is 01:07:23 You know, I'm not saying this out loud, but in my head. No, no, yeah, yeah. And then we get up there and I see the whole family. And dude, it's in Webster City, Iowa. And I was fairly certain there's only like 500 people in that town. By God, they was all there. They were all at the funeral because she used to clean people's house. She cleaned everybody in the city's house.
Starting point is 01:07:38 That was her job. What? And he was the postman. And now he drives a school bus and heumps Little League. So, like, when you do that in a town of 500-something people. Dude, that's like, you're like, you're like, you're a pillar at that point. That's what I'm saying. As small as the town is, everybody
Starting point is 01:07:51 fucking knew them. And I mean, I don't have nothing other to say, but it was just sad. And it just made me like, it made me look at Ma Ma'all's different. Because like, again, I hear Ma'amaw and I'm thinking like, mine, 96, dead, of course. 72, man, so much life
Starting point is 01:08:07 to be lived. I was 50 when she died. Word. My dad's was helped. My first, the reason I never had him is because she died at 55 and Papal died at like 57 and I was like five years old. So like, Again, in my mind, my granny, who was actually my great-grandmother, I've just like, yeah, maimals are old, and sometimes they die. But 72.
Starting point is 01:08:24 It was, ugh, wasn't it. That's crazy. Yeah, wasn't it. So every day you hear Corey Forrester say something made him look at mammals differently. I heard, yeah, I'll say this. I'll say this. One thing about northern funerals versus southern funerals, the complete lack of covered dishes. Dude, I was about to ask that.
Starting point is 01:08:42 Does that mean they're uncovered? No, no, no. No, no. No, no. So we go. Nobody brought no potato salad by? Wait, no food at all? No, there was food, but I'll get into it.
Starting point is 01:08:52 So we get there, they're like, I'm frustrated. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Tell me about it. By the way, Midwest, not Northern. Midway, you're right, Midwest. You know how it is. Because I feel, but you're, okay. Not South.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Yeah, not us. Okay. You look me in my eye and you tell me a Philadelphia funeral ain't going to have some goddamn lasagna. No, that's true. And that's actually kind of what blew my mind even more because I was expecting they do this thing in the Midwest called pickle wraps.
Starting point is 01:09:16 and it's basically you cut pickles into little slivers here, and then you wrap the pickle in a layer of cream cheese, and then you wrap ham around that, and then you cut it into little things. That does sound funny, but how you wrap a pickle in cream cheese? You slather it. You slather it.
Starting point is 01:09:31 You slather it. You slather it. You slather it. You slather and cream cheese, and then you take that pickle and roll it up into some ham, and then you cut it, and there's these little pickle pan wheels. I'm like, I'm going to get them. There's going to be fucking some tenderloin action going on.
Starting point is 01:09:45 Of you can drive in the whole way. Yeah. This is what we play for! So, yeah, making it all about me. So we get there and they're like, that's what I'll be doing to most funerals, though, to be quite honest. No, it is.
Starting point is 01:09:58 Every funeral is about you. That's what it is. It's for the living. They're dead. It's for the living. It's for the living. Exactly. So they're like, the family's visitation is 11 to 12.
Starting point is 01:10:09 That will be followed immediately by service. That will be followed immediately by the graveside. That will be followed immediately by coming back here. and we're all going to go in the kitchen and there'll be refreshments and stuff like that. And again, in my mind, I'm like, I know what it is. Yeah, I'm like, it's going to be casserole. It's going to be potato salad, all this shit.
Starting point is 01:10:24 We get back and it was just nothing, but it was, I mean, it was all desserts. No, it was all desserts. What? It was a bunch of them, but it was just like special K bars, fucking lemon bars. Oh, not even though motherfuckers cooked it themselves? Some of them did, I think. And cookies, the cookies were definitely purchased. But so all it was was desserts.
Starting point is 01:10:43 And like, don't even wrong. You know, I love sweets. but like I had not eaten all morning and I'd been at the grave side expecting to come back to casserole. My man was building up. Yeah. Yeah. You'd already funeral were on an empty stomach. I was over here by this gray side.
Starting point is 01:10:55 I'd take a wee about to get. They're like, stay down. You keep funeral on an empty stomach. The hole's already there. What are we doing? I don't even know why we took this step. And then they had a woman preacher. You know they talked to God damn much.
Starting point is 01:11:10 We've prayed 17 times. God's busy. Can I get back to some chicken or something? It was all desserts, and so, and then I was like, everybody's like, well, we'll just, we'll go eat. How about this? After this, we'll all go eat as a family. And I'm like, oh, hell yeah, all right. So like, how long do you eat cookies with the people?
Starting point is 01:11:27 And they're like, we've got to sit here for at least another hour and a half. No. That's like, oh, that makes sense. I mean, you have to sit with people. That's why there's food. Well, why don't you have better food? Yeah, I wouldn't mind sit there for an hour. It was past lunchtime.
Starting point is 01:11:37 But I was a special K bars. It was past lunch. Don't you wrong. I ate three and a couple of lemon bars. I just be able to bitching, just tearing them all each one. What's a special K bar? I thought Special K was a cereal. It is, and they make the bar with, like, they put that in marshmallows.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Special Kellogg's bar. It's like a Rice Krispy. But with oat bread? Fuck that. But with Kahneman. God, I hate Iowa. Why would they do that? No, it's actually really good.
Starting point is 01:12:02 It's actually really good because all it is is the flakes and then they, because think about this, if you just ate a handful of Rice Krispies, that ain't it. Right. So you just, no sugar or nothing on it. Like, that wouldn't hit. but you put them in the marshmallow and then that makes the rice crispy. So I get what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:12:16 Then they cover it with a layer of chocolate. Yeah, but not rice crispy. Yeah, but if it's not Rice Krispies. I get what you're saying. Of course. Of course. Look at his jowls.
Starting point is 01:12:28 Rice Krispies. Look at the hollowness in his eyes. Rice Krispies and checks. Yeah, he eats cereal. That's a cereal you got to do something with. No, Krispics you could just take too because they're the crispy Krispics. But like I understand that like I could,
Starting point is 01:12:40 actually I could do that with Rice Kris Krispies. It never sees his cereal. He amazed me, Corey, like the surprise of, like, his time spent in prison, the way that it affected him. Yeah, it's all food-related. He just eats dry, crisp. He's like, this is a treat? No, the fuck it ain't, man. You're free now.
Starting point is 01:12:53 You're free now. You're free now. Like ramen noodles dry? Ever do that? No. Because you just... All right, let me tell you all what you do. You take it. It don't cost much more to hate him.
Starting point is 01:13:00 I know you're saving on the energy bill by not bowling a pot of water, but God damn, boy. You ain't got a fight to get to the hot water, and you ain't got a fucking... Jay's used to shoving him down his mouth before he shanked somebody. Yeah, no, no, no, you bust them open, you know how they got the, you bust them over, put peanut butter in the middle? Yeah. Eat like a sandwich. How does it taste dry? Like, God, like the worst.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Like the fucking, we used to do that shit. Make a... In prison? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So, no, I'm not done it. To be fair, generally speaking... I don't know if that was just something y'all did, too.
Starting point is 01:13:34 No, Lord of God. Generally speaking, when he says, we used to do that shit. Yeah, about humans. There's only one other thing you used to do. Yeah, and that was being in prison. He's either talking about us. Be a prisoner. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:44 The first chapter of your life is something else. What we used to do together or that. Right. All right. Well, I'm sorry. Well, I didn't mean to throw that in the... But I would tell you what. There ain't no way I'm going to hang out with folks.
Starting point is 01:13:59 Especially in a death, in a death match. Is that menthol? Yeah. It is? Oh, never mind then. I'll take that one. All right. So there ain't no way...
Starting point is 01:14:07 You wanted a menthol cigarette just to sit there and not smoke? I don't want a menthol cigarette. I don't want a menthol cigarette. cigarette, which is why I ain't smoked this one. I'm going to, but I'm upset as menthol. I'm not upset. That's not the right word. So, I feel like, and that's what
Starting point is 01:14:21 they did, because all of the sudden funnels now, they don't have them like they used to when I was a kid. No, Lord no. No. No. Well, well, my papa died. Now, everybody up up the mountain came down. He was a huge, he was, he did, you know, nine mile. He did all the bluegrass festivals. They stayed out there. They played bluegrass for like,
Starting point is 01:14:40 you know, three days. Everybody. who came through it and saw the body and whatever and there was goddamn food yeah there was crying and shit motherfuckers was upset yeah once they got full and remembered somebody had died yeah yeah yeah but when he came out of the mountain here to chattanooga they was like hey motherfucker i always be sad when i get full every time i need a chicken leg yeah part of that is his legacy though i i don't know if it's that they don't do funerals like they used to. Maybe you just ain't men to one with some bitch like your
Starting point is 01:15:11 papal who had reached that mean people. When I tell they don't do funerals like they used to. I don't know how to fuck they used to do funerals. Right. Well, no, I'll tell you how they... That's the age I want to get. I'll tell you how they used to. The age where you just sit around me like, man, I don't do death like we used to. These fucking millennials don't know shit about dying. I'll tell you
Starting point is 01:15:27 that right now. We're working on it. We're working on. Funerals, as we know, them are a fairly new concept in terms of actually going to a different place other than your house. Back in the day... Sure. Back in the day. And that was the reason that room was called the parlor, which is why now a funeral home is called the funeral parlor.
Starting point is 01:15:43 Now, when I say what happens, it was like, they would go see the body there and then they would go to my granny's house. Yeah. And that's where everybody was that. Did you know that's why once they stopped doing that, once funeral homes became a thing and they stopped doing that, they had this big old room in their house that was literally, that's what they were for. They met. But that's so once they started on the funeral home. And also observing the babies. Right.
Starting point is 01:16:03 You would go see the dead there, but you'd also go see the newly born there. Well, that is beautiful. That is beautiful, circle of life. But when they started going to funeral homes and people weren't using their homes for that, and they were like, we got this big old room and nothing to do with it, they started putting sofas and things in there,
Starting point is 01:16:15 and that became a place for everyone to go in. They didn't have sofas before? They didn't have just a room that they would go, like they had a study or whatever, but that became what is now known as the living room. That's why it's called the living room. Is that true? That is true.
Starting point is 01:16:28 I believe it. A funeral director told me that. I believe the first 80% of that story, and then I felt like at the end, Corey got on one. You know what I mean? And that's why, like, he's up there like Charlie on fucking, Always said.
Starting point is 01:16:40 He's like pointing different directions. He's got a graph. And that's why they caught the living room. And then he looks out, we're not here. He's just in an empty field. He's screaming at a tree. I was told that by a funeral director. Now, he may be full of shit.
Starting point is 01:16:53 No, I believe it. But that's what I was told. I knew it was all true. I'm just saying halfway through the story, it started to feel like, you know. Yeah, all mine feel that way. You probably told it better than him, baby. I guarantee you that. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:17:05 Hey, no telling me. He was Robbie's dad. He told it pretty good. Oh, Big Rob. Yeah, Big Rob. He told it pretty good. He was up there with me when dad had the heart attack. I literally, I hadn't slept the night before because it was Tuesday. And Tuesday is my podcast day. And I, you know, I hang out.
Starting point is 01:17:20 I edit the episode. Then I stay up on night, making little promo videos and doing such and whatever. And I hadn't slept. I'd stayed up. It was like 8 o'clock in the morning. And I was like, still up. And I was like, I'm finally going to lay down. I'm going to sleep to about one.
Starting point is 01:17:31 Then I'll start my day. As I was falling asleep, mom texts me and she said, hey, shit just got weird, you're going to need to come up here to the hospital. And I'm on like 40 hours straight up or whatever the fuck. And I was like, uh, uh, fuck. And I got the most terrified I've ever been in my life, especially because I wasn't able to process it on the very limited sleep I had and no endorphins left. I don't even remember calling Big Rob.
Starting point is 01:17:52 I just remember hanging up the phone and looking down and I had called Big Rob. And he said, he got to my, he got to my house and he goes. And apparently I just called him. I said, Big Rob. And he said, yeah. And I just started like, whatever. And I just said, I'm scared. And he said, are you at home?
Starting point is 01:18:05 and I said, yeah. And then he was at my house in five minutes. And he's like, oh, let's go. We'll go see your dad or whatever. That's fucking community, man. Yeah, and that's him. He's my godfather. But, by the way, he'd do that for you.
Starting point is 01:18:15 He didn't even fucking know you. Oh, I know. And he was able to, uh, he could tell people at the funeral home, hey, Corey needs me. I'm pissing off. And so he missed a day of work. So that hit for him. Uh, but as a funeral director, going to the hospital is a business trip, I'd say.
Starting point is 01:18:30 Yeah. Yeah. I was trying to think it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. They wrote that to fuck off. I promise. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me ask you something about anxiety. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Real fast. Okay. Because I just, I just, uh, do you experience anxiety? When you experience anxiety, is it, is it, is it? Oh, your mic went out. I don't know what happened. Hold it, hold it different. Just now?
Starting point is 01:18:55 Just not? Literally just now. I'm here. No, I'm hearing. No, I'm hearing every. Lord. That's the Lord. Yeah, you're good now.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Okay. The Lord don't want you to talk about anxiety. DJ's lighter matches his phone. Well, I'm just, I was going to ask, I was just going to ask, so you have the difference between anxiety and anxiety, what was it, anxiety attack? Panic attack and the affliction anxiety. Oh, because anxiety's constant. Right.
Starting point is 01:19:21 Anxiety is pretty constant, and I think that it manifests itself into a panic attack. But, like, I pretty much live in a constant state of anxiety. Sometimes it's a lot less. Like, right now it's a lot less. I've been taking CBD, which really fucking helps. But like, what was it, what was your question? The difference between those? Well, we, here's something that's been on my mind for a minute.
Starting point is 01:19:43 After we talked to O'Garrow and then we were talking about Dre and like the laughter and how it, and how it, I'm trying to figure out what's the difference in a, in panicking and anxiety. And maybe anxiety is just a longer, that was just something that came into my mind real fast. Obviously, I'm not a doctor, but the only way I could describe. it is that anxiety I live with anxiety panic happens when something happens that I immediately panic about
Starting point is 01:20:13 Are there anxiety attacks? I mean anxiety attack and panic attack Not the same That's what I don't know either I think panicking is just anxiety Manifesting itself Right exactly because You know classical music is music
Starting point is 01:20:26 And punk rock music is music I think it's like that Yeah No I mean that checks out to me Yeah yeah yeah one's way worse One's long And subtle and moves you to do crazy things if you get way too into it.
Starting point is 01:20:41 And one is right in your goddamn face, man. Yeah. That's what I think. I would say anxiety is classical music because it's just, it's in the background. Yeah. It's just kind of always... Go on the background.
Starting point is 01:20:52 Go about your day. You don't think it's affecting you, but it is. And panic attack comes in, Do you have the time to listen to me whine your fucking wrist? About nothing and everything I let it want. I am one of the... Okay, so because I keep on hearing anxiety attack, panic attack, anxiety, panic attack. And I didn't know, and I'm not really necessarily sure what is,
Starting point is 01:21:18 because I don't feel like I have anxiety. Yeah, I don't think you do. Yeah, but, but for sure I've had a panic attack. You know. I think your panic attacks manifest themselves as in relation to trauma. Yes, I agree. I agree with that too. it's like something triggers that it comes back Isn't it weird how different are mental health
Starting point is 01:21:40 As humans not just us in this room But like as humans And like how we could have the same affliction Whatever this is We could have the same affliction T-shirt I'm sorry And then they would know Not worth it by the way
Starting point is 01:21:53 It really Well no it's like if you If me and you both had If me and you both had jaundice of the liver They would treat Because both do Right for sure but they would treat me and you both the exact same
Starting point is 01:22:07 because our, you know, livers are pretty well the same and jaundice is the same and it affects it the same. So like, you got jaundice, you got jaundice, here's these two pills that'll work on both them. But your brain, me and you both could have anxiety and depression, but the same pill ain't going to do the same goddamn thing.
Starting point is 01:22:22 What if my jaundice is created by hepatitis C's and yours is by cirrhosis? Yeah. What if his jaundice was created by hepatitis C and yours was by alcoholism? What if that was how it worked? Yeah. What if? Actually, I just completely, without thought, was just like, here's how your liver works.
Starting point is 01:22:43 You know what? That could be the most wrong thing that is ever. Let me tell you something about how the liver and jaundice works. Well, the greatest thing is. I ain't had jaundice in 31 goddamn years. I'm so glad DJ picked up on that. I was just like, God. he's right man yeah well that's the thing about someone they're giving people liverpool that's the
Starting point is 01:23:10 that's the thing about someone that's really full of shit questions because people say things like oh don't call goddamn then i hate to bring up the one who are not be named but trump don't call him crazy i swear to god i was like what the fuck does voldemore have to do with any of this shit do don't call him car well he's a crazy motherfucker yeah he's a goddamn mind well on that note i don't know how to talk. I don't know what needs to be more mental health about this motherfucker. You know that he needs some goddamn lithium
Starting point is 01:23:40 and a goddamn, you know, some time and a padet's hell and somebody to talk to. You know what I'm saying? This motherfucker needs somebody to talk to. I don't know if we do in the literal medical world with John us as an example, but in the mental health world, dude, the reason for that is we don't have the words
Starting point is 01:23:56 for it. We have like five words. You're depressed, you're anxious, and this somebody over here, you know, just needs to be... It's because I'm depressed. It's because the thing... And when you have depression, that's way different than being sad. What I'm saying is...
Starting point is 01:24:11 Oh, you're fine. Or manic depression. Right. I'm saying in like... I got that in spades. We won't be like, you're depressed and you're manic depressed. We'll be like, hey, it turns out these two are completely different. Right. So we need to call them different things.
Starting point is 01:24:25 You know what I mean? Because being... We ain't there yet. When you're wearing a motherfucker's skin, it's a lot different. You know what I'm saying? being sad yeah right yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:24:37 yeah yeah nobody looks at a guy wearing a skin and goes get over it yeah yeah yeah grab them
Starting point is 01:24:44 oh jeez I'm sorry who's boots are they yeah yeah yeah I think they do some lithium yeah man
Starting point is 01:24:51 that's just that's just a good Friday well we can uh we can wrap up there on us softened depression uh I think we just need better words more words
Starting point is 01:25:02 I think we do need more words. Well, they fell us. You've heard it here first. We need more words. All right, where can we find it Into the Abisket? In a book. At Into the Abisket. Biscuit is spelled correctly.
