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 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
Starting point is 00:01:02 that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, 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 anymore, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture,
Starting point is 00:01:21 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. Premium features. I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different
Starting point is 00:01:49 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. Also, a fun one, I'd said it before, but I got an app,
Starting point is 00:02:08 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. Yeah, so that was money. What was that a reply gift for?
Starting point is 00:02:30 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, 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.
Starting point is 00:02:46 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.

Well here we are. Uh, me and Drew and Studio Cho back in the wilderness of North Georgia.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Uh, we have been talking before about, uh, I wash my hair today. I have to use dandruff shampoo. Uh, wood. I've got really hardcore, high-stained dandar shampoo, so I only have to use it every few days, which is good because I don't like shampoo in my hair, because I had that revelation sometime in my mid to late 20s that we have collectively been lied to by big shampoo for the most part. And I was saying up until that point, I had always just, I got a buzz cut, just buzzed my hair off once it got a certain length because I was washing it every single day, and it was just
Starting point is 00:03:57 fluffy and goofy looking and all over it. It looked like I came out of a dryer all the time. Yeah. So I would just cut it off. And then I heard about, I got preached the gospel of no pooing and tried that out and was amazed and never looked back. A couple questions. Mm-hmm. Is it a bird everywhere?
Starting point is 00:04:15 That's why there were so many firemoles in the 90s. No questions. We got a delay, Joe? You got a delay? I think we do have a delay. That's all right. We'll deal with it. Uh, we'll just, I'll keep that in mind.
Starting point is 00:04:29 We got a little bit of a delay today. What do you mean? Was it a burr, like... Is that a burr, is a, is a burr haircut what they call it everywhere? I have no idea, to be honest with you. Um, I don't know. Corey? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:44 I mean, it was, we always heard burr or buzz, you know, it was burr or buzz, but usually like, yeah, I'm going to go get my head buzzed and then you would say, oh, he got a burr. Yeah. Like, if you were the one saying it was, it's like whomever and whoever. It just depends on. you know, the context in which you're saying, like you get your head buzzed, but then you have a bur. But my question is, say you did that in Philadelphia. I don't think anyone would say you got a burr.
Starting point is 00:05:10 You got a bha. I don't think they call it that. Yeah, I don't know. What was the other question? I forgot, man. Okay, well, that's all right, because I don't want to, I figure most people feel about the hair conversation and what they would have did about the bread conversation. It's not about hair.
Starting point is 00:05:26 he just reminded me I was a me and you Drew and Mark our friend Mark who's been on a podcast before had a recent conversation mostly via text but maybe in person too about about being cool or trying to be cool and I got reminded of it again today
Starting point is 00:05:43 because I saw a quote from Terry Cruz on Reddit because Reddit that's a that's very he's one of their people you know like he's no I'm good on the drink he um you know he's like Terry Cruz Keanu Reeves, Bernie Sanders, a select few people on Reddit is just like automatic upvotes and hits for people. So I saw a quote from Terry Cruz that was longer than this, but the part that reminded me of that conversation was he said,
Starting point is 00:06:09 trying to look cool is the fastest route to mediocrity. And I hadn't thought about it that way, but what I said to you and Mark the other day was, and this is my genuine experience, I said that having children murdered forever the instinct in me to attempt to be cool. And I think that happens to a lot of people without trying. It was not conscientious on my part. But the second part is, ever since then, and looking back on it, like, that's one of the better parts about the whole process for me. Like, I feel very, I'm very glad that I genuinely. genuinely don't care about being or looking cool, and I think that it's helped me psychologically
Starting point is 00:06:56 a lot, getting rid of that impulse. So that's how you overcame mediocrity. Yeah, exactly. Interesting. No, it's not. No. Because you're fucking talented and smart. But, I mean, you have extra energy because you're not wasting it on that stuff.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I don't know. This is a semantics thing. You know, obviously I'm contrarian, so I'm always arguing with stuff, generally speaking, anyway, I get, I think what he's saying? Like, if you're spending all your time trying to be cool, you're not spending it, learning how to do something. Yeah. Or be good at something.
Starting point is 00:07:25 He also was, it was also about taking, like, risk and stuff, meaning, like, if you're too too hung up on, like, trying to be or look cool, it'll hold you back from doing things that might embarrass you or whatever. That also could lead to, you know, growth and that type of thing. But, I mean, you know, you catch him on the red carpet and how expensive is his suit? and where did he go to get it and who did he pay to dress? I'm saying like everybody wants to look good.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Yeah. And in his line of work, there's a good and cool sort of, because when we were talking about it, me, you and Mark and Corey texting, I thought pretty much we were just talking about the way people dress. And like, obviously if you spend a shitload of time
Starting point is 00:08:10 on that, you're wasting your time. But I think everybody wants to feel comfortable or like they look good. There's a few people who just dress like slabs all the time. Yeah. But for the most part, everybody wants to feel like they look good and therefore cool. Sorry again about the delay of Corey. What did you say?
Starting point is 00:08:27 No, it's cool. I think there's a difference between that. I mean, I think that you can still, you want to look fucking presentable, obviously, but like there's a difference between my suit fits and I look nice and this is presentable. And also, oh, and I need to wear these fucking leather cuffs. and I got to make sure that, you know, yada yada, all that shit. So, like, I don't think that being not cool just means, all right, well, I guess it's these sweatpants today. I'm going to take it a step further, though, and say, I think there's a difference between you lacking sneakers
Starting point is 00:08:58 and thinking that they make you look and feel cool so you're confident when you go on stage. I like boots and pearl snap shirts versus people who change their look and worry more about their look than anything else. they're doing. You know, and you see that out here a lot where people have on, I mean, you know, whatever they have on, and then you find out if you ask or if they, sometimes they tell you, you know, this is a $900 jacket. And it's like you just spent so much money to look like you don't have any. Yeah, it's very strange to me. Yeah. But at the same time, and this is what I said to you guys, I do try to look cool. Like I and I wish I let go of it. I wish I just like had none of that in me, but I don't buy that that's the only thing in my way. You know,
Starting point is 00:09:43 Someone who got hammered drunk most of the weekend and stared at a script I can't finish. Like, it wasn't trying to be cool. That was fucking me up this weekend. Right. It was depression all. Well, to keep it within the world of like, because Terry Cruz is primarily an actor and everything. And I can think of the specific example. And I mean, I struggle with this too because I take acting classes and whatnot.
Starting point is 00:10:02 And I've heard a lot of actors and interviews say some version of like learning to get over the feeling of like being embarrassed or that type of thing with a lot of like acting. exercises like I was listening to Adam Pally who was on multiple sitcoms and stuff he's a comedic actor guy on a podcast the other day and he was talking about the best thing that go into some very prestigious acting school the best thing that it did for him was getting him over all that because he's like you know you come in and the whole class in there and they have you go up there and they give you like a like a loincloth and a mane and they're like you're a lion now be a lion Adam he's like and you just he's like you feel like a complete idiot for a while. He was like, but eventually
Starting point is 00:10:45 that gets beaten out of you because you don't have any other choice because it doesn't stop. And he was like and then once that happened, I feel like it made me a whole lot better. And I still have that thing. I'm not saying I don't. But I think that's another example of that dynamic. But you're trying to get
Starting point is 00:11:01 over the natural embarrassment awkwardness of that. The cool guy move there would be to like make fun of it and act above it, which is fine, except if that's how you feel, leave this class Why are you spending your money here? And if that's what he means, and that's why I said it's a semantic thing, then yeah, I mean, I have to agree with him.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Because going back to, like, you know, how me and Corey dress, just as an example, if you think I look cool when I hang out with the cool kids in L.A., like it faded, the show I like to go to in my boots and Western pearls, I don't. You know, I look like an old man. And when I do sets, I start talking. That's what everybody thinks I am because I am. So I just, I don't know. part of me, I guess, though, what's the word, I don't know if it's defensive, maybe it is, because I stay defensive. When people are like, oh, everyone's trying to look, like, literally everybody wants to be cool. You know, I mean, everybody wants to be cool, but how hard are you trying for it?
Starting point is 00:11:57 Right. I hear you, but I've always, like, whenever I wear my fucking, you know, big-ass, goofy, bright, colorful tennis shoes and shit, like, I'm 100% know and am oftentimes going for the fact that I look goofy and like a big goofy child. So to me, it's trying to, and I'll definitely admit, I'm an entertainer and I'm a comedian and you're always looking for something different, looking for a gimmick or whatever. I'm definitely trying to stand out. Like, that's 100% for sure. But, like, I don't really, I don't think cool ever really comes into my mind because, like, you know, does that make sense? Like, I'm definitely trying to stand out, but not like, look at me. I'm so cool.
Starting point is 00:12:33 It's just, look at me, I'm a fucking big old goofy dork kid wearing a wrestler shirt and big ass shoes. I bet you'll remember that. Yeah. I feel like I also know, like, with. him specifically where it's coming from has to do like you think about like when he first uh you know got started and was being seen and stuff he's this like former NFL football player this huge jacked as hell black guy from like Flint Michigan or whatever and he's on there singing he's singing Vanessa Carlton in a car sitting in traffic and shit like that you know what
Starting point is 00:13:03 I mean like that killed me the first time I killed everybody the first time they saw it and subsequent times I'm saying like he got noticed by being goofie Being goofy, and that is not the, you know, like NFL locker rooms and shit. Do you know what I mean? Like it was not okay for him to be goofy except he was okay with it. Yeah, that's true. Made all the difference in his life. So I feel like that's where he's coming from specifically.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Well, I agree with that, and that's like being secure and insecurity, which I can see being related to wanting to be cool. Absolutely gets in everybody's way. It certainly gets in my way. Yeah. I just thought it was interesting. I don't really have anything else to say about it. Um, but also I was just, I was a fat dork kid, you know, I know, kid, you know, well, wow, what happened? You really shaped up. But, uh, as a fat dork kid who still had like, I, I was friends with like all, all the popular kids because they either cheated off my math homework or I made them laugh, you know. Yeah. I wasn't, uh, unpopular at school, but I still was very much a fat dork. And so like, I feel like most fat dork kids. I mean, I used to care. That's what started this conversation with me, you and Mark. We were talking about how I looked in college because I used to care very much about being cool.
Starting point is 00:14:15 And then I got to college and just broed completely out. Oh, yeah. Just went off the deep end. I had the chin strap and like backwards ball caps and two polos and like, you know, puka shell necklaces and shit like that. Ack's body spray. God damn. Just all of that. I had all of that.
Starting point is 00:14:32 And I think that's why, you know. And then I'm saying then shortly after college got up and then I had them babies and I just, It completely just vanished for me entirely, which thankfully, because, like, turns out that wasn't cool either, but that's why I was doing that. It played. It did play. It played. This was the aughts, dog. Dude, all being cool is, in my mind, is does it play?
Starting point is 00:14:58 And so I guess for me, it's like, well, what are you trying to play to? If he means you're trying to play to everybody or you're 35 trying to fit in with 20-year-olds, yeah, there's nothing lame or nothing ever going to get in your way more. but if he's trying to say anyone who wants to be accepted by their peers and worries about that is mediocre it's like i don't know man i think everybody wants to be accepted by their peers i'm sure right now listen to this podcast there's plenty of parents who are like looking at the stains in their shirt and they're at work right now and they're like i don't give a fuck it's like yeah but let you hang out with your buddies on the weekend and y'all talking about who got the baddest grill or whatever it is that y'all give each other shit about you you know you want to fit in that way yeah yeah well
Starting point is 00:15:36 What about it, Cho? Anything else? Anything to add? Well, I was just going to say that, like, to me, and I think to everyone, because we've talked about this before, like, you know, we think that, like, Dave Grohl and Jack White are the two probably last living examples of what, like, a rock star means in the fucking dictionary or whatever. With a dude like Dave Grohl, I do consider him super fucking cool, but the reason that I consider him super fucking cool is because he very much seems like an example of this of a guy who, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:16:06 I'm sure that there's obviously a method to all his madness, and he knows why, you know, I do this. I'll endear myself to people more. But he just, he's had that fucking dad energy for so goddamn long. And it just, to me, arguably, has made him the colossal rock star that he is by not always trying to seem rock and roll,
Starting point is 00:16:24 but like sometimes being like, you know, fuck it. I'm still a dad. I'll sing in a car. I'll go to this county fair. I'll, you know, wear a wig and do this goofy shit. So like, yeah,
Starting point is 00:16:31 I think there's something to it for sure. Well. Because, you know, his, the dude he was in a bandwidth before. tried to be super goddamn cool all the time and that ended up you know hurting him I think a little bit I disagree about Cobain you mean I mean I mean he might have been trying he might have been ahead of the curb but Cobain's whole thing was you got to put him in his time too and you might be right in that he knew being all or being
Starting point is 00:16:52 different but what I was about to say even before you brought up Cobain was that Nirvana's whole thing was it being cool ain't cool yeah that like people putting on makeup and whatever clothes and worrying about their music video is a fucking joke. Now, I understand that now that has become what cool is. Right. But, you know, at that time, I think it wasn't. No, yeah. I mean, that's like what. Yeah, no, I guess you're right. Looking into 2020 lens, like, you're probably right. Like, at the time, he was definitely like the goofy little kid, but watching it now with, with the eyes that I have. It's like, man, by the way, I'm not trying to disparage Cobain. I was just saying, you know, I was making a point as to the psyche. It seems Dave Grover.
Starting point is 00:17:33 girl's fun-loving yada yada demeanor worked out more than the fucking like uh i don't know i mean it just seemed like but yeah in hindsight it seems like coban was trying to be cool but that probably was just him i think i i think i know what you're saying about the like between him and dave grole and how and you know how one worked out to me it's more the still dave grroll has his whole dave gruel thing going on and with cobane it's not that he was trying to be cool it was that it was it was the tortured artist thing taken to it's like it's like it's like it strength, which is like considered pretty cool, I feel like, by most people. But I also don't think, that's what's a cool one.
Starting point is 00:18:08 I don't think he was. I think when you kill yourself, I hope to God, it wasn't to just live into that. Do you know what I mean? That's not. It was just who he was. I believe that. Right. I'm not, I don't mean to say that I think he was faking it.
Starting point is 00:18:20 I'm saying like that, to me, that was his, like, what his thing was. That, yeah, the, yeah, the, yeah, just supremely tortured genius, you know. Above it all. Right. Right. Yeah. But who knows. I was just watching.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Yeah, for the record, I was making an offhand comment comparing the band he's in and out of the band. I don't really in my heart believe that Cobain ended up going down this horrible path because in his mind he was just trying to be so cool and then it ended up getting to him. Like, the dude had fucking issues. Well, all the reason, I wasn't even trying to argue with you as much to say, like, I feel like Dave Grohl's been that way his whole life. Even in Nirvana, they wouldn't do interviews. They were, you know, which, you know, made them look cool. But, you know, it was very much like, look, I'm not going to try to play that game. Right.
Starting point is 00:19:05 I kind of want to change the subject. Yeah, no, I mean, that's fine. Me too. But a quick, real quick PSA for people in case anybody's wondering. We do intend at some point, but not on this episode. To be cool. To talk about all, just what's up with the primary and everything that's going on. We feel like it's very that we should just wait a little bit longer, basically,
Starting point is 00:19:27 and see, you know, let some more things shake out before we get into it. That and also once we get into it. We don't want to alienate half of you right now is how I feel, so we're going to wait a week. Right. But anyway, having said that, I mean, go ahead. Man, well, there's two things I want to talk about, and I think the smoothest transition, nah, that's not the best way to say it. Something that is just something I wanted to share with people, and then we can move on.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Because I think we should share good news. That's something that I remember from my time at church. You would get up there and you would talk about how everybody's got cancer and you need prayers, but you'd also share your blessings. Okay. So we're going to share a blessing. All right. A kid I went to high school with, his name is Casey Stout.
Starting point is 00:20:08 I'll say his name by name. I'll probably use everybody's name in this story. Some people are enemies. Some people are saints. Casey's a saint. Casey's one of those Christians that's a really great person and lives by it. So they're big foot. They do exist.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Right. Went to high school with him, graduated with him. One of my best friends played football with him. He works for the prison system. Long story short, he got my brother moved to Morgan. County, Tennessee, where my people are from. My dad cried. To like a jail?
Starting point is 00:20:37 There's a prison there. Oh, okay. Yeah. Brushy Mountain is no longer there, but they replaced it with Morgan County Correctional. Oh, okay. I didn't know that last part. Yeah, my brother worked there for a little while, and he never could go there because
Starting point is 00:20:50 they said it was a security risk. There was a guy there who, his name is Bubba. I guess I won't say his last name in case someone from Morgan County's listening. I don't really care. Bubba, if you're listening, I know you're not, and I catch you out. I'm going to break your nose. But Bubba has kept Dustin from there over something we're not sure what for some time. Casey didn't know anything about that, but he reached out to me and was like, I'm going to try to get him moved.
Starting point is 00:21:12 And I was like, well, buddy, good luck, but that ain't how this stuff works. Then he got him moved. And then a week later, less than a week later, we had time for one visit or two back-to-back. Jake and Mom went on Sunday with Maddox, and my other nephew and my dad went on Sunday. Sorry, Saturday and Sunday. Anyway, small town politics, a guy named Bubba. He's still there because he went off to be a warden somewhere, but he was too fat, dumb and fucking stupid to be the goddamn warden,
Starting point is 00:21:42 so they moved him back. Everyone's going to know who it is by the time I get done with this episode. Right. You can be too fat, dumb, and stupid to be a warden? I know, buddy. It's a new day and age. You can be head of security, though. Lord.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yeah. So we're hard to figure out who this day is. Well, it seems to not really be your ultimate goal to me, so. No, hoping it gets back to him. Yeah, right. Sue me. Find me. He got him moved again. Like back? Yeah, he got put on lockdown and he got put on lockdown and we didn't know where he was going to get moved. And so he was in solitaire. So he went from not having, you know, to being able to get visitors in Trousdale, which is a horrible prison to being moved close to home to a decent prison and having visitors two days a week to now he's in essentially solitary confinement and we're waiting. We got news. today that he's been getting moved back to Nashville but not to Trousdale. So I said this is a blessing. It might be a blessing in disguise. It's not ideal. It's not perfect, but I cannot tell
Starting point is 00:22:43 you how much better the prison that he's in now is than Trousdale. And part of the reason I'm sharing this is I know some people know this because I talk about it. I used to talk about more than I do. But I just, it's fucking good news for my family and I'm happy about it. But then also I just think it's I don't know it's not funny but dude we're just everyone in this room
Starting point is 00:23:04 and on this podcast right now we're just so white trash yeah oh yeah and like I want my nephews to not be white trash yeah
Starting point is 00:23:12 but they are because like right now you know they can't see their dad because a man named Bubba is mad at him because he used to fuck his girlfriend
Starting point is 00:23:20 or some shit I don't know what it is yeah yeah it's very very whiskey tango for sure well it's just I think I said this about the whole saga when my brother first went to prison,
Starting point is 00:23:31 but it continues to be a John Gresham novel about juggalo's. That's like what this is like. Just intrigue, twist, turns, but just like trash everywhere. I looked up his Facebook picture, this Bubba dude. You know, was I looking for to see where he lived? I don't know. I can't describe to you how fat, dumb, and don't hit this dude is. I feel like I got it.
Starting point is 00:23:54 I get it. I get an approximation for sure. He's holding a deer. It's like a six point, one for every chin he has. Yeah. And it's night time. He definitely spot lit that deer. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Oh, God, anyway. That'll be the one thing that makes them want to fight me if he does hear this. Yeah. Everything was fine until you said I spot lit that deer. Let me ask you this. Percentage of people named Bubba that you think you could whip their out. ass. Ooh, buddy.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I would say it depends on their age. And the reason I can whip this Bubba's ass is because he's pushing probably 50 and he's about 400 pounds. So as long as I can keep him from setting on me. In their prime, dude, maybe 10. There's some skinny bubba out there. Well, I mean, 10%? In their prime, I could whip 10%.
Starting point is 00:24:46 But very few bubbas are ever in their prime. Well, not their Bubba prime. How do you define prime for a bubba? You know what I mean? Well, fighting prime is what I know. Yeah, right. Well, he is in his Bubba prime. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:58 This is obviously, this is obviously just, you know, in my, a poll that I am taking in my brain right now and obviously my specific area. And we, of course, have been gerrymandered for Bubba's. Uh-huh. Yeah. But, like, I can off the top of my head. No, no, no. You got Bubba-mandered, dude. That's Larrymandered.
Starting point is 00:25:22 That's Larry Mandarin. Larry Manor. Armenian guy called me Larry Bird in that hip. Does it? I can think of about 15 Bubba's off the top of my head. Seven of which I would absolutely make a shoe store out of their ass. Seven of which would murder the fuck out of me. And one, it really depends on, you know, if he'd been messed up that month or what.
Starting point is 00:25:50 So like, just going on that, I'm saying, 50% I think it's 50-50. Generally speaking, it's 50-50 because there's two kinds of bubba's and one kind of Bubba can't ever fight and the other kind ain't never done nothing but fight. But you also got a factor in that age-wise, a lot of Bubba's just moving up in years. There's not as many Bubba as there used to be. No, you're right.
Starting point is 00:26:11 It's not. It became past A, I think. We moved on from Bubba to like, you know, I don't know what. But I believe they'll come back. They will, yeah, bubbles will come back around. You can't get rid of Bubba. Because the mullet hit, the mullet was passe for a minute now. It's back with a fucking vengeance.
Starting point is 00:26:30 It's true. So, like, I'd say there's going to be a, but Bubba. Bubba made a comeback. Let's fight. I can only. Put my brother in prison. It wasn't right. We, of course, have some Bubba's in Solana.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Of course we do. Had some, whatever. Every one of them that I knew or can think of absolutely fit the, like, I mean, like, big, dumb country-ass, Bubba, you know, who like I wouldn't want to tussle with. But except for one of the Bubba's, the Bubba that was in my grade, who's actually one of my very best friends in the world, who is now an astrophysicist.
Starting point is 00:27:07 Jason Bay. I should say, but I didn't meet him as Bubba. No. He overcame the Bubba. Very much so. He's not Bubba at all now other than being a big boy. But like he was, his nickname, like most people called him Bubba all throughout school. I know we always called him I mean we call him Bubba sometimes we either called him Bain or Jason no no he didn't hate it at all but like most
Starting point is 00:27:27 I'm like is that why he's a rocket scientist motherfuckers call me Bubba he seemed I mean in my recollection he seemed to never really mind it that much but like the majority of people always called him Bubba all throughout school and he is a fucking physicist now he also seems like so and I know he's been through some stuff that's not anyone's business I won't talk about it but but that's why because he went through all that he seems like somebody just like dumb shit don't get to him any Anyway, I mean, that's always been my experience with him, yeah. He worked on space stuff? Yeah, he, last I knew he did a, he gave some kind of, like, seminar at a conference in fucking Oxford in England or something about, like, some shit that I couldn't describe to you if I was, you know, given a script to do so because it's all over my head. Once he gets to a place where he feels real safe in his career and resume, he should. should go start going by Dr. Bubba Bain. Dr. Bubba Bain, renowned astrophysicist. I would love that. No, Bubba Fett. That would vary hit for him. He's very nerdy. He loves all that nerdy shit. I know. That's what I'm saying. Tell him I said he Bubba Fett. Well, I am grateful that
Starting point is 00:28:38 my brother got moved and I'm not going to whip anyone's ass. I was sitting here thinking about how hilarious it is and how just who I am, all those people like him think that I am. I'm on a podcast in a studio in L.A. wearing a hot pink tie-dye t-shirt telling me how I'm a whip somebody's ass, who I will never say. That's because it was in here. Yeah, right. Yeah. I just grabbed what was free.
Starting point is 00:28:59 You've got 2,000 miles of hold me back, please, between you too. I know it. I ain't whooping nobody, but let me see him. I'm telling you. Anyway, all right. So, yeah, not all bubba's. That's all I'm saying. This is not what I wanted to talk about, but this transitions into what I want to talk
Starting point is 00:29:15 about pretty quickly. That's a great hashtag. You said Bubba Fat. Bubba Fat. I said Bubba Fat. Chow said. Yeah, I know. Bubba Fat is Bubba Fat sitting for me.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Star Wars, I saw, I think it was on Reddit. Someone made the point. It might have been on Twitter. They made their AI so smart that they have feelings. So they're kind of just slaves. Yeah, you mean like droids? Yeah. What was it?
Starting point is 00:29:45 Solo. Solo has a. subplot in it about like a droid uprising like lando young lando's primary partner who is a droid she's like a droid revolutionary who you know is determined to free all her metal brothers and sisters and unite them in the revolution against their you know their oppressors or whatever so i mean yeah they've acknowledged it but they still keep them that way i watched ex machina last night yeah i fucking love that movie I also watched the first two episodes of devs,
Starting point is 00:30:20 which is Alex Garland's show. Oh, I didn't know Alex Garland had a show. Before you watch it. Yeah, with a, yes, it's with Nick Offerman. Yeah, and it's right. What? It's great. How did I fucking miss this?
Starting point is 00:30:32 And Annihilation's great. You did know this because I brought it up, and you were like, oh, well, Alex Garland's my boy, so that's going to win my shit, but we were wine drunk. And the beach, that Leonardo DiCaprio movie, he didn't have anything to do with the film, but it's based on his first novel, which I now want to read. I've become obsessed with Alex Garland lately. I've been in the Depression just watching shit, and he's been hitting for me.
Starting point is 00:30:52 But this is what I wanted to ask y'all. I didn't know Debs was on FX. Uh-huh. And you can't binge it. I did two episodes, and I clicked next. I was like yelling at the TV because it wouldn't work. And Andy was like, it says next week. And I was like, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:31:08 Yeah. That's new. Like, I don't even know how to ask the question. Obviously, there's going to continue to be network television. But like, I'm a binger. now. Like I don't even have, I acted like a child. Something in my brain was broke. It's, well, first of all, it's not, you say like it's a new thing to feel, but it's weird because that's actually the old way. But I know, but like the last time that happened with me, it happens with Katie almost every week because we are always watching at least one HBO show, it seems like.
Starting point is 00:31:38 And HBO still puts everything out weekly. And like every single week at the end of the episode or whatever, she's like, okay, you know, play the next one. And every single week, I'd be like, there is no next one, honey. It's the, it's on HBO. We have to wait a week. And every week she's like, oh, God damn it. But the last time that happened to me, because I didn't expect it, and I also had a little internal tantrum.
Starting point is 00:31:59 It really upset me was when Disney Plus first launched and the Mandalorian had come out. Disney Plus is a streaming service, like Netflix or whatever, and they don't all do it. Like Hulu, some of Hulu shows are all together. This is on Hulu. Some of Hulu, but like Hulu Originals. So you said that's an FX show. Hulu Originals, some of them they put out weekly. some of them are all at once, but Disney Plus, I just took it for granted that every episode of the Mandalorian was going to be out at once, and it wasn't.
Starting point is 00:32:26 And I didn't know that until I got finished with the pilot, and it very much upset me. I did not handle it. And I think Hulu as a studio, does this make sense? Do they have a studio? Yeah, well, they're a network. I think Hulu made this show and sold it to FX, but I could be wrong. If Hulu does that, I'm not aware of it. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Hulu's a buyer. It's also a miniseries. I don't think it's not really a show. I think it's going to be an eight-episode miniseries, maybe 10. So that's another reason that, for some reason in my head... Is it sci-fi, though? No. Oh.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Oh, you mean, is it science fiction or the sci-fi channel? Is it science fiction? Yes. Okay, yeah. I can't wait. It's great, and I'm mad. And something about it being a miniseries makes me even angrier. I'm like, come on, y'all, y'all done shooting.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Put it out. I will often now, wait for weeks and weeks before I'll even start a thing for this for this exact reason. Sometimes I'll fuck around and give in like the outsider that's shown HBO which we just finished last night which is very good. I waited it I think it had been out for like five or six weeks but that means it still had like five four or five six weeks left to go. But yeah, I'll do that on purpose sometimes for this reason because I can't. Yeah, I did that with outsider also. I'm on I'm on episode six right now and I did that like I waited
Starting point is 00:33:47 like fuck that i'm gonna watch it all at once and i'm very very glad that i did because dude if i'd watched if i'd have watched week one and then couldn't follow that shit straight up dude i'd been having that tantrum you were talking about because fuck me dude i'm i'm getting some like i don't know if this how you feel but with the outsider tonally i'm getting some real true detective season one vibes and it's fucking hitting for me real hard yeah i would i would agree with that well i'm definitely going to wait on outsider then it's done now as of last night All right, then I'll binge it. What should I do about devs?
Starting point is 00:34:20 I've been in your position before, and what I did was I'd watch it either every week or I might wake two or three weeks and watch two or three at once. I've never successfully shut it down until the end of it and then caught up. I've never done that. I'm out of town for at least two weeks, and it's a Drew Ann Andy show. She's looked. Right. So I'll have to wait, so that'll be fine.
Starting point is 00:34:44 Yeah. that was it I'm kind of into like every now and then I like to have one of those like it does suck at the very first but like because it's the old way
Starting point is 00:34:54 it's kind of nice because like it's nice for all of us to experience something at the same time versus like sometimes you know they drop stuff one day in one day
Starting point is 00:35:03 and let's say happen you had a lot of shit to do that day but your buddy didn't and he sat there and binge watched all 10 of them and now he's just sitting there with that fucking
Starting point is 00:35:10 strained face like I got so much fucking I got so much to tell you right It's like the old way. It's like, all we can just kind of all do this together. And I can go back to trying to finish the wire. Yeah, I'm not completely against, I also need to do the wire. I'm not completely against the old way at all.
Starting point is 00:35:24 I didn't know it was coming. That's the only time that I really get mad about it. If we went back to the old way like that just went back all together, dude, fuck all that shit. I just mean like every now and then having a couple like that is fine, which I'm used to it with like, you know, that's how wrestling be. this reminds me I don't know if you remember this or not right now
Starting point is 00:35:46 because we all got pretty drunk this couple nights ago, Saturday night but our comedian friend Travis Irvine who's actually done the podcast before but it was a very long time ago he's a very tubular dude who's like what's he say about himself it says he looks like he's like Johnny Depp
Starting point is 00:36:01 on heroin or something like that that bit he has about how he looks like a dirt bag but also like he was something about anyway that's sort of his chic He's like dirtbag chic, but it's not contrived. It's just sort of the way Travis. He talks just like Polly Shore, except for him.
Starting point is 00:36:17 And he's from Ohio. And he, like, ran for mayor at the age of 18. He's very, very, very active politically and in his community and stuff. He's an awesome dude. He's very much an individual, but also kind of a, yeah, he's got, he's got like a surfer bro vibe, even though he's not from California. And when we were hanging out the other night, really this conversation we're having now, he said, and he was completely serious.
Starting point is 00:36:41 joking at all. He was like, he was like, you know, I watched season eight a Game of Thrones, uh, but only season eight. I'd never seen any of the rest of it. And I watched season eight as it was coming out. And I thought it was pretty rad, man. It's like, I didn't, it's like, I didn't understand where everybody was so pissed off about it. It's like, this lady's got dragons. Like, it's a cool show. And I, I was, we were laughing about it. I was, we were laughing about it. And I was like, wait, so you like, and still to this day, you have only watched season eight. He was like, yeah, it was good. I liked it.
Starting point is 00:37:17 And I was just like, you're like the only dude I know who would do that, I think. Like that for something about that just checks out for that dude. And I just don't know any other people who would make that choice. That kind of, man, I'm kind of super fucking jealous of him right now because like even though, like, even though like you watch a show, like if you already know the ending, it's, it's one thing. but like if that if him watching it and it hit for him just solitary that one season then I think that he can go back and watch the whole thing even know in the end and it will still hit for him because the show up until that point you know with some some missteps in season seven but it was like fucking rock solid so like I fucking hate him because again I think he can watch the whole thing now
Starting point is 00:38:01 is like a prequel to this really rad thing that he saw yeah so um just to review Corey You are jealous slash fakely hating someone because of their carefree life and ability to just to make stuff hit. Yeah, I feel sorry for you, buddy. Yep. Something none of us ever experience hanging out with you. That's a very specific, like, I would never do that. I wouldn't think to do that. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:38:26 I'm jealous of the fact that he's beating me at my own game, I guess. Yeah, you're right. He's tubular, man. Oh, very quickly. Ex Machina, the Alex Carlin movie. So the ending boy I missed I didn't
Starting point is 00:38:40 Very much by accident I had already planned To watch that movie But the first time I watched that movie Because I had to go back later and rewatch it But the first time I watched that specific movie Also happens to be Far and away
Starting point is 00:38:52 The highest I have gotten as like A grown adult man Even at night you and Corey held each other And laugh at night Actually it would compete with that But that night thankfully was mostly just You know Phil was like tickle fights and farts and hilarity
Starting point is 00:39:06 because we were like... Because we were together. We were together, so we kept each other from the void. But I watched that movie. I was watching the movie alone, and I just fucked around and ate too much weed without meaning to. And if y'all don't know what this movie is we're talking about, it's like, I can't...
Starting point is 00:39:21 On the one hand, I've never been more engaged with a movie in my entire life, but on the other hand, it was like that movie... It was fucking me up. The movie's all about, like, and the Turing Test and how to deter... But really what the movie's about is what it means. means to be human and that and that scene dude where he he is going through this thing where he thinks he might be a robot and doesn't know it bro you I'm you talk about fucking my shit
Starting point is 00:39:50 up I like I couldn't handle it I had to pause it and shut and like just chill out for me I was sober as a judge watching that and that shit killed me that particularly scene didn't freak me out because I thought I like had thought that he was a robot because of the wreck I don't want to give too much away and was like oh shit it's about to be revealed and then after we turned it off i was thinking about him rubbing the blood and i was like man that dude had a horrible horrible mind i don't want to give too much away right but i'm saying like i felt like i was i did not see it and as soon as soon as it like unfolded and i realized what was happening in my head i was like oh my fucking dude it fucked me up i literally slept in the fetal position that night i'm not kidding
Starting point is 00:40:33 I kind of saw... But I love that movie. I kind of saw the incoming, and I mean like 25 seconds before it was obvious, a minute before it was obvious. I felt in some way, yeah. And Andy didn't, and buddy, you talk about upset. Yeah. She was upset. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:40:54 I ain't give much. I'm trying not to give anything away. This was about that life. Yeah, I knew. That's why I saw it coming. It's because she was about that life. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, this shit ain't going to be it.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Yeah, and so you also haven't watched Annihilation or you did? Yeah, I watched it first. What did you think about that? I liked it not as good as ex-Machina. I agree it's not as good, but I'd like really like it. Well, I've seen it multiple times. Yeah. I've got a cramp.
Starting point is 00:41:23 What's that dude's name who plays kind of the bad guy if there is one in XMachina? The main scientist. Oh, Poe Dameron? No. Oscar Isaac is her husband who like comes back I mean the movie starts out this way He's dead
Starting point is 00:41:38 He shows back up No not an isolation No not an isolation Oh X-Mock That's Oscar Isaac Yeah Sorry he's in both of those movies Yeah
Starting point is 00:41:45 Yeah No he's amazing in that movie That was the first time I saw him He's amazing Extensively in something And he fucking Rocked my socks off baby He's one of my favorite actors now

Anyway, y'all is what I was going to say about Bluchu is like not that anyone has any questions about it at this stage, I would imagine. But just, you know, take it from your boy. Like, the shit works. Ain't no doubt about it. If you are at all wondering, wonder no longer.
Starting point is 00:43:59 It works. You need a hard dick. It'll get you a hard dick. truth and advertising sure will I think we got to talk about coronavirus yeah
Starting point is 00:44:08 yeah Bryson said something that we didn't address the other night at dinner and we can go through all the points we made at dinner
Starting point is 00:44:14 but this is something that I think well I think it's like true and it kind of marries what you were saying and what Mark was saying Bryson said he Bryson Turner was on the podcast
Starting point is 00:44:23 that we did a segment on dreams like believing in stuff not like you know I saw a snake actual dream yeah right he said it's so weird to see such an overreaction from his neighbors and such an underreaction from his government. Right. Yes. And that is kind of what you and Mark were arguing separately.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Well, so that's, well, that's right. And here's like we, I already mentioned we all went, went out and got dinner and went to a bar and shit. A completely deserted bar, by the way, on Saturday night. And the bartender was like, this fucking coronavirus. I don't know how true that is. That place has been there for forever. I've never been in there before. It was Saturday night. I've been in there before. It's never been empty.
Starting point is 00:45:06 It was literally empty. But anyway. Was that when you want to smoke house? Smokehouse was not empty, but we went to a bar afterwards called 10. I was about to say there's no one of them. Tenhorn flats here in Burbank. And it was completely empty. Me and Andy met Brad there in the middle of a day this week.
Starting point is 00:45:22 Yeah. And it had four groups of people. Right. So it was weird. But anyway, we had a whole long thing about coronavirus. and yeah, we can get back into it now. And I could tell the whole time, but I just wasn't, I was a little too drunk or what, I don't know. I could tell, I started to get frustrated because I was like, I can tell that I'm not coming across the way that I want to.
Starting point is 00:45:45 And or like, because I agreed with basically everything that Mark and or you were saying, but I also felt like, I don't know, I felt like it was like two sides arguing like their point. and I wasn't doing a good job of actually illustrating all I was trying to say, which is basically what you just said I agree with. Like I was just talking about like people freaking out about it. Paying $60 for hand sanitizer. Right. Yes, all of that. The panic of it and everything, that's how it all got started.
Starting point is 00:46:15 It was me criticizing that saying like, man, what the fuck is wrong with these people? This don't hit for me. And then it turned into a whole thing about like the response to the virus itself and how devastating it can end up being and all of this. And it's like, of course, I know that it's a real thing. And of course, the government and Trump have bungled these shit out of it. And that's going to have, like, massive human life implications. But I was just, I still think that, like, you know, people, I don't know,
Starting point is 00:46:46 that there's been an overreaction at this point, I think, by just the general public. But my problem with that, you're, I mean, you're right. There has been an overreaction. when people are paying $60 for two years worth of toilet paper. But if that's what we're all talking about and focused on, it does sort of allotted the notion. I mean, it's true, man, like 115 people die in Italy in one day. And if it explodes, and by explodes, I mean, if the number of people who have it jumps exponentially for a month.
Starting point is 00:47:18 Right, which is probably what is going to happen. If that's what happens, and if it does happen, it will be because of an underreaction for the, the government. It will be because of including and not limited to the World Health Organization offered free testing kits and we turned them down and said we're going to make our own and give it out to a private contracting company, which Trump owns part of, big surprise. And before I shit all over Trump and you know I'm happy to, the reason no senators are calling him out on that is because that's quite literally how 90% of our politicians make their money giving contracts to businesses that on the back end. Anyway, so they've done that.
Starting point is 00:47:53 they've lied about the number of cases. Right. They put almost no one other than that one poor ship in quarantine. Did you hear about that? Yeah. That one that they just won't let them off and they're running out of food and stuff? Yes. And Trump said some version of like,
Starting point is 00:48:05 I could take or leave them or something like that. He was like, I could do either one. And either one means strand these people on this boat for forever or maybe let them come back. They came in today. They came in today. To Oakland. Yeah, because Ben Carson asked him yesterday. They're like, so they're coming in tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:48:22 you all have a plan and Ben Carson's like, oh, yeah, and we got a plan. They're like, well, can you comment on that? He's like, oh, no, I can't really preview that right now. And they're like, but you have a plan. He's like, yeah, I mean, we're getting there. And they're like, well, they're coming in tomorrow. And he's like, basically like, we'll have it by the end. It was very flippant.
Starting point is 00:48:40 They're sending them to Oakland. And San Francisco and Oakland, I mean, that's a huge bay. I'm sure that's relatively normal. But I can't help conspiracy brain to be like, these motherfuckers was headed to Florida. And they was like, nah, send him to wear the black. I know it's, that's way too far away. That ain't what happened. But it's like, send them to the one port we have that's up against a black city.
Starting point is 00:48:59 Right. Yeah. I mean, it's just kind of far as a swing study. We can't have all them die right now. Right. Yeah, I don't, like, I just, yeah, I don't know what else to say about it other than that. And also just like, because, and I told this story at dinner the other night. And I did find this funny and also, like, indicative of the thing that I'm trying to say, which, again, doesn't, I'm not trying to negate any of,
Starting point is 00:49:22 that shit and how much the government sucks and don't hit. But I saw the other day I was what it was super Tuesday actually. They're obviously, I was watching MSNBC to see like, you know, primary coverage, but they cover the coronavirus for a little bit. And they had Governor Cuomo, the governor of state of New York on there to talk about the situation in New York City where they just had a couple more cases. And the whole time he's on there, he's like, he keeps stressing over and over. He was like, he was saying things like, like, listen, the news.
Starting point is 00:49:52 number one thing that we can all do right now is to keep people, you know, keep from panicking, keep from overreacting, you know, address this in, you know, an adult fashion and not, people have, there's a lot of misinformation out there and people need to understand. And he was like, you know, in New York we have, at the time, I don't know, he was like, it was like eight cases or something. Now it's the number one in the country. Well, he was, he said, they had a handful of cases at the time. He was like, and people I know are really scared that we're going to have more cases in New York. He was like, I'm here to tell you, we're going to. He's like, we're going to have dozens more cases in New York. But we know that and we are prepared for that. We're not
Starting point is 00:50:31 going to be blindsided by that. Like, that's going to happen. You need to understand that and don't freak out when it does. And that was the gist of, he goes on a diatribe about it basically. And it ends with him pretty much being like saying, reiterating some version of the best thing I think we can all do right now is just take a breath and realize that, like, you know, panicking and overreacting isn't going to help anything where this is concerned. And I swear to God, I'm not exaggerating at all. The anchors in MSNBC, he said that. And they go, all right, Governor Cuomo, thank you very much for your time. Then they turned to camera too. And they're like, when we come back, the devastating new implications of the coronavirus that's sweeping the country.
Starting point is 00:51:11 But the implications are devastating. I know. It was just fun. It was, I don't know. Seeing it in real time, like it looked like a sketch or a scene from a parody about a parody disease movie or something. Well, this is where you and I disagree, though, even with Bryson's sort of point that I do agree with, and I think you do too. I'm okay with people panicking as long as it's not like a violent in the street type panic. If people are staying home, it will help. You know, even if it's an overreaction, it's an overreaction that. will help. You know, as long as they are coming to our shows.
Starting point is 00:51:52 And other than that, washing their hands, you know, like, I'm not going to pay $60 for hand sanitizer, but if people who have the money do, that, you know, that will help slow the disease down. Overreaction in that way, staying home and stuff like that
Starting point is 00:52:07 could help. But I know it could also fuck up the economy. Right, I was about saying, but it has other implications right outside of that. Some of which could end up being positive. I've seen things about their people are being able to like telework for the very first time and whatever company they work for or their chosen career. You know, the company's never allowed them to do it, but now they are allowing them to do it. And there's the hope that like maybe this is proof it will become a thing and they won't go back to the old way after that because like teleworking is a thing that should have been, you know, pervasive for a while now as environmental implications and all that. And also it's just like it's just it could be done. There's no reason not to do it. Other than asshole bosses. Yeah, but I think that's. largely like a myth anyway. Like they think if you're not sitting in your office anyway, fuck all that. But that's like a thing that could happen. You know, like the pollution in China
Starting point is 00:52:56 is way better right now that it's been in, ever because, you know, everybody's locked up inside and shit. I'm not, right. I'm saying like there's, there's just a whole lot of wide-reaching implications of it. And then some of, yeah, the economy could collapse. Fucking whole industries could, you know, do so, follow suit. And it could be, yeah, it could. could end up being bad in myriad ways. I don't know. It's going to have long-reaching consequences in all directions, I think, no matter what at this point. But not on the well-read shows.
Starting point is 00:53:29 No. Those will still hit. Well, here's my honest opinion on that. And feel free to argue with me. On our shows? Yeah. Okay. These big festivals that are canceling.
Starting point is 00:53:40 Right. There's a huge difference there, which is thousands upon thousands of people are coming in from all parts of the country into one. city, mingling and then going home? Yes, right. Simply the three of us, we have no crew, we don't have, you know, tour managers, we don't have, you know, stage hands or anything like that traveling with us, travel into a city, you know, and then you come to the comedy, I mean, look, if you want to stay home, I guess stay home, but my point is, it's not the same as thousands of people coming from
Starting point is 00:54:11 all over the country. That's what's so dangerous about music festivals right now and why so many are getting canceled. It's not that you have three people traveling across the country. You have thousands coming together in one place and then going back home. You know what I mean? So, for example, when we come to Raleigh this weekend, it'll be mostly people from Raleigh in the surrounding area coming into that comedy club called Goodnights. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Come see us. Charlie Goodnight's Raleigh this weekend. Joe, what were you about to say? I was just going to say that like even without a goddamn global pandemic, you know, there's a lot of people leaving. music festival so much worse than when they got there and shit like that anyway so yeah that that definitely that don't that don't hit now uh just a real quick they won't cancel them is what i'm saying a real quick into the biscuit plug um DJ's thought on that was coronavirus and the music festival part was let's have a quarantine festival we'll get a couple tents we'll all just get the disease come in
Starting point is 00:55:11 killer mich will come you know he'll cough on beat and we'll have a party because you're gonna die anyway if you get it that's what he said he's looked into it and that not at all yeah right and uh if you're gonna die anyway i've got a cramp ooh who that don't hit corona got me and he said if he said if you're gonna die anyway you might as well go out party him yeah i mean i hear that part well something i agree with him on tell me this if you had tickets to a festival and they didn't cancel it would you go um well where's the festival you know me i probably would have been on the fence already like I don't know. I had to pack a, but I have to be in a tent. I don't know. I'm old now. I don't hit.
Starting point is 00:55:50 What if it was one of those festivals like Lollapalooza where you got to get a hotel and you're already done it? No, I would go as a young man. Here's like, okay. Right. It's hard to get it. It's hard to talk about all this in a way that's not callous, but it's also just true so far as far as we can tell. Like, I think the other day said, because we're doing such a terrible job with testing for it in America and everything, that there's probably a shit load of people. people who like have done and had the coronavirus and have no idea that they even had it. Right.
Starting point is 00:56:21 You know, they think they had a cold and the cold's gone now and it turns out, no, that was coronavirus. Because like for most people, especially under a certain age, it primarily manifests itself as like a, you know, a bad cold or a flu or something. Me and Andy talked about that. We thought we had the flu. Then we thought it was a cold. Then we thought it was bronchitis. She finally went to the doctor. He said it's something viral.
Starting point is 00:56:43 Here's some steroids. but we were hacking shit up. Do I think we actually had it? No, but we might have it. Y'all had it, you had it. We did. If anybody had it, you had it, I think. Anybody that, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:56:52 For sure. Does that mean? No, as what you were saying, you were probably already on the fence. Yeah. I would go to the festival. I don't think it's callous. You don't hang out with old people either.
Starting point is 00:57:04 It's not like even if you got it, that you would give it to someone in danger. Right. You know what I mean? Yeah, that's the first thing I did when I heard about the coronavirus and that stuff was getting canceled, I mean, this is just me. Like you said, being on the fence,
Starting point is 00:57:17 I immediately got on my calendar and was like, is there some shit I can use this as an excuse to get out of real quick? Like, is there anything that I don't have to go to that I said I was going to? I could be like, oh, man, you know, I would, but goddamn. What'd you come up with? And unfortunately, everything was mandatory. I bet I know some people in. I didn't have anything.
Starting point is 00:57:33 But I know some people in Riley, North Carolina doing that math right now. Yeah. Dude, I'm honest, I want to do that. That's selfish. This is selfish. I'm not, this is no one, no one should be at all worried about this in the grand scheme of things. But like, I mean, I'm like, I'm real curious about all that. I mean, it hasn't like gone. I'm talking about our shows specifically. Like, I kind of think we're going to show up and. No, it's a shitload of people are not going to be there. I think so is. It's going to be very. Well, and for Riley being a crown jewel of the South that it is, I mean, I'll just, I'll be open with you, well, Red. Sales are lower than. expected and I think that's a big part of why too I really do yeah but we'll see what happens I mean we'll be there we're gonna be there believe that we'll be there at least there and then if it is terrible and this keeps up you know who knows they may lock us up somewhere too but they'll probably I'm sure we'll be there and then then it'll end up being a huge thing and we'll get kept there for my god damn me and Corey will be quarantined together and murder each other yeah well that won't hit please yeah um well you got what do you got any like uh part of parting chow nuggets, Corey? You too, but I had a thought. Go ahead, Corey.
Starting point is 00:58:48 No, I got, I got no parting show nuggets. I am this one thing. I know that we've, I know that we've just talked about, you know, the coronavirus and shit like that and all, but I'm very, very excited to be back on the road doing the whole thing, having the boys back together, because it's been a while and I need, I need it. And I miss, I know we got to see each other the other day, but literally for like two hours and we were actively doing a thing and didn't get to hang out and, you know, cut up and do our bullshit. So I'm pumped to see you guys, and I'm pumped to be back doing our thing.
Starting point is 00:59:18 It's going to be great. Me and Corey, you're confirmed on the Chattanooga show, too, right? Yep, March 17th at the Palace Theater, correct? Yeah. Me and DJ are doing a run of tiny shows, and Corey's going to join us on the 17th. We're going to do a live into the Abisket at the end, I think. That's DJ's plan. I'm letting him handle the Chattanooga show, so, you know, come see what happens.
Starting point is 00:59:40 We'll see. Yeah. Here's my party talk I'm glad I'm doing that one. You can do all of them, baby. Here's my parting talk. I had this right after I tell the story about Bubba and my brother. The place my brother's going,
Starting point is 00:59:55 part of the reason everyone's so excited is that it's just like as far as prisons go, it's a good prison. Okay. There's not a lot of like, you know, violent deaths. Yeah. And examples of people being raped right before the end of their life. Right. Yes.
Starting point is 01:00:10 not as much. A little bit, but less of that. Less of that. And also they got a lot of programs. Like a lot. It's kind of like a vocational centered prison. And my brother said that he's going to start taking barber classes. He's put off taking any classes so far because you can't take any twice.
Starting point is 01:00:29 So his plan the whole time was to kind of stack him up at the end. Yeah. So that he doesn't run out of shit to do or whatever. Yeah. I get that. I had this thought of like my brother getting out and like we're all. obviously so happy he's finally out of prison and he's learned that skill but now i like have to i kind of have to go there to get my hair cut and it don't hit for you his haircuts not it
Starting point is 01:00:49 don't hit he's terrible yeah he knows like two yeah you want a burr or a flat top or whatever and then i'm just like flat top well what would you do in that scenario you got to keep going right yeah and just deal with it yeah because he'd know like if you one time i could get away with ah man i got it cut right before i came in to visit and just didn't think of it yeah you do that twice in a row right yeah yeah he'll figure it out yeah no yeah no yeah no one now you just got to grow a ponytail and just like i don't get my hair cutting no more yeah that would hit that well by then i'll be bald bald like ring balled ring balled yeah ponytail yeah pulled the george carlin off yeah ponytail yeah that would hit well hit you're right ah hell all right well well
