wellRED podcast - #163 - Quarantinin' While Single W/ Brent Black + Diffies Dead. Don't Hit

Episode Date: April 1, 2020

Y'all continue to stay your ass inside and wash your hands please. We love you. Sorry the quality is a little weird we gotta use zoom cause of the corona and ihell it just is what it is. Nothing hits��

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, 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.

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? 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, 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, 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 language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was probably 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, 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? 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. If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

They're the. Hey everybody. It's your boy of the show. Hope y'all are all staying safe and washing your hands and, you know, all that good stuff. Not been a good week. We lost Joe Diffy. So pour one out right now. for Joe Diffy.

We do get into that a little bit during this episode. It had just happened that day. We were all pretty tore up about it. And by tour up, I do mean drunk. As I've been saying for the past couple of weeks, don't really have anything to plug because we're not on the road right now because of this situation. So again, stay inside. Enjoy this podcast that we did with our comedian and friend Brent Black,

where we discussed him being single during the quarantine. And then at the end, we, of course, had a true. tribute to Joe Diffy. Now, I got to tell you, we do these podcasts remotely. That's not a new thing. But it's usually remotely and, like, also we're in a studio, so it sounds pretty fucking good. That's not the case right now.

Like, we're having to record these over Zoom as long as we can get it out to you. So it's just not, it's just impossible for us to make it sound as good. So, but we wanted to give you guys something, you know, fuck it's free, whatever. We want to be able to keep putting stuff out for you. because this is the only way that we can during this situation. So we apologize for the rough sound quality, but please just bear with us. We'll try our best to make it better, but we're just dealing with what we've got to deal with. So we love you guys.

Stay safe and enjoy this podcast. They're the never rednecks. They like cornbread but sex. They care way too much, but don't give a fun. They're the next that makes some people upset, but they got three big old dicks. that you can sun. Hey, here we are. Maybe.

Yeah, I see it. I see it on your Facebook. Really? I believe you. I will say this. It's not switching to you, Corey. Now, that might be because it was just trash.

Yep, okay, we good. Yeah, yeah. And I can hear, hey, all that. Hey, Tommy Thompson. Here's the deal. If y'all are, Corey and Drew, if you were watching on Facebook, I would say don't,

because there is definitely a delay and it messes you up thinking that it's like not working but it is so anyway here we are live podcast well read podcast this is the first one we've ever done live except for in front of an actual like audience yeah we've done two we've only done two of them yeah it's been a while so and this is very different but hey the world is very different right now but uh we uh you know would have liked for this to be uh cause for celebration us figuring out a new thing we could do but of course we're coming to you with heavy hearts after the unfortunate passing of Mr.

Logan Diffy, Country Music Superstar Extraordinary yesterday from coronavirus. I just don't even know what to say, y'all. What do you think about it? It's unbelievable, you know? I'm upset. I want to say that it's not in a victim-blamey sort of way, but I know your boy was out there shaking hands. You know what I mean?

man comes phone of his grandbaby catching a fish. Like, he weren't quarantining, but it's still bullshit. Now, I just, I want to know, did you, did you find that somewhere, or are you just assuming? No, but I tweeted something to that effect, and then someone sent me a picture of their granddaughters with him, glad-handed people in Panama City maybe it wasn't their daughters, maybe it was just too random little girls. Freaky-Tiki on Twitter,

sent me a picture of Joe Diffey in Panama City like not that long ago out in public. So yes, so when I initially said that, no, I had no idea. It turns out I was right. Well, you know, that kind of leads into one of the things I wanted to talk to you all about

where Joe Diffy is concerned. and I do want to talk some about just how much he hit as an artist. But since you kind of have brought it up, this might sound ridiculous. But like, do you all think this will have, what kind of impact do you think this will have on, like, people in the South taking this thing seriously? I can, I'm here, like, in the South threat now, and I can tell you 100% that Joe Diffy may have just died for our suits.

Like, he died for mine, son. like I'm not kidding like first off the number between him and John prime who as we're speaking right now I've just found him is in stable condition which is good and we're still sending good vibes out there to the prime prime family and all their family and friends but before this um everybody had like when at first when the when the coronavirus thing first happened it was like I mean dude it wasn't just like people weren't taking it serious people a lot of people around here just straight up were like this ain't that ain't even real that ain't even a real thing that's not real. And then it's gone from like, all right, it's real. But like, as we all know, the media overreacts to every single thing. And then now it's just like, well, I mean, you know, don't go lick an escalator. But, you know, we can still pretty much do whatever. But yesterday, when this Joe Diffy shit happened, I got so many text messages, phone calls, yada, yada, yada. I know for a fact my dad's taking it more serious.

Like me and mom taught today. And she, because dad's not been like, again, dad's not. been like, fuck it, let's still go to Panama City and get drunk. But like, he's still kind of been like, oh, hell, we ain't going to get it here. But like, mom was like, man, when this Joe Diffy thing happened, like, your dad's really, because Joe Diffy and my dad are like the same age. She's like, he's really, he's taking it serious right now. So, like, it took Joe Diffy and I think there's going to be a ripple effect. I think it's going to be, it's going to matter. Well, okay. Well, let me ask you, let me ask you, Corey, because like, it's hard, everybody's

kind of in their own bubble right now necessarily. I mean, if you're quarantining at least. Yeah. I feel like it's kind of hard to tell sometimes, but so you're saying you've already seen, because we've got some comments over here from Jenny says that people in the SIF, which I believe is Mississippi, seem to be taking it seriously, even before Joe Diffy. The youngsters are the ones being stupid at this point. And, you know, all these spring breakers and shit like that, you know, all 20-year-olds think they're going to live forever. They're not inclined to give a shit about things of this nature in the first place.

But also, like, I had, when I've had to go to the grocery store, I've chosen to do it at nighttime. And when I went out at nighttime, you're in Burbank. I mean, it's been like a complete ghost town. Ghost town, yeah. It's been eerie, you know, like, and so I have thought, like, I don't know, man, it seems to me, like way more people than not are taking this pretty seriously, at least where I'm at. But I've had to go to the grocery store during the daytime the other day on a weekday. It's like a Thursday in the middle of the day. And honestly, it seemed like any typical.

weekday with the amount of vehicles on the road and stuff. So I never know what to think as far as how people are taking it. So what do you know? My mom and dad went on vacation last weekend, but they went to like a cabin with this other couple and like went hiking and stuff like that, but they avoided people on the trails. So it was like they were halfway there. I think people in small towns,

I don't know what part of Mississippi that young lady lives in, but I think people in small towns in general, just we don't get stuff good and bad you know what I mean like like we don't get movies on time right well we got opioid that's the only time we've ever been at the forefront was pills boys we're still recording but I just now noticed it says live video ended at the bottom why well that's so fun we tried uh this is something else. Okay, well, at least if you're listening to the podcast,

you're going to hear all this. I guess I need to post something about it. Is there a... You would think I would have looked this up before even attempting it. Well, dude, I can edit all this out so if I can take your time and don't worry about the podcast

that's having to continue right now. So just figure it out and I'll just cut this out. I can't imagine they'd make the limit anything less than your regular limit. The time limit for live streaming on Facebook is eight. hours. What the hell? Yeah. I think it just got a bad connection or something.

When you get a bad connection, it ends it rather than like, you know, stopping it. That way you'll still have that part. I'm going to try it one more time. And if it fuck. And I'm going to tell them this when we get back on there. If it fucks up again, we're just going to go into a regular podcast because I know this is going to be annoying and everything. So, but I mean, I got nothing to time. So just do whatever you got to do. Wait until I get done picking my nose. This is a good one. Okay, I got it. That was a corona bugger.

I had no idea how long that had ended for before I noticed it. You want me to go look and fast forward to the end or whatever? Can you do that pretty quickly? We made it four minutes. Really? Yeah. How long have we been talking? We've only been talking.

And then it's gone from like, all right, it's real. Can you hear that? As we all know, the media, that's right towards the end. Reacts to every single thing. I'm about to. Okay. We're going live again.

This is Raven. So, Raven. Hey, y'all. So, as you probably know, if you're still out there, bless your hearts, our feed got cut off and we didn't even notice it.

We just kept rambling into the ether for a while, but I think we're back now. I'm going to go ahead and tell y'all right now, this is the first time we've tried this, you know, bless our hearts. we're doing the best we can. But here's the deal. If it cuts us off again,

and we still have no idea why it did, but if it cuts us off again, then we're just going to go straight into recording a regular podcast that will release the regular way, because I'm not going to keep asking y'all to, you know, come back here and then get kicked out and come back again and all that and just stopping and starting. So hopefully it just won't happen again.

But we were talking about whether or not people, particularly in the South, to taking the coronavirus seriously. And I was saying how everybody's sort of in their own bubbles because of the nature of this whole situation. And I think it could be hard to tell. And I had also said we had a commenter named Jenny who said that she felt like people in the SIP, which I'm taking as Mississippi, were actually taking it fairly seriously in her opinion, except for the really young people like on spring break and stuff like that. So we were discussing that and Drew, you were saying.

Well, I was saying about my parents, before I recalibrate that, isn't Mississippi the place where the governor told Trump to go fuck himself, he ain't shutting nothing down? Well, I wasn't sure if they were responding to Jenny or not, but another commenter did say when Jenny said that, they said, the only people not taking it seriously are the youngsters. Another person then said, yeah, neither is our governor. I could be wrong, but I don't think.

their governor's 20. Another comment from the previous chain before I forget it, before we lost everybody, was for somebody in Louisiana who said something like, dog, Coach O himself had a press conference telling everybody in Louisiana to stay at home, and they are still not doing it. Are you serious right now? They're not listening to Coach O. I think that's the other thing. Take your ass in a half, make your d'A, make your damn a lie, get your ass in there. That way we can have football season.

and go coach old men and another trope and out. Still home, no tigers. No tagos. I mean, the other thing about that is, if you're staying home because you take it seriously, how the fuck do you know if everyone else is taking it seriously?

Right, I know. I'm saying about it. Well, on that note, my parents aren't taking it seriously or weren't. I think they are now, but they had church. Like mom told me this. They went on vacation to Alabama with another couple, you know.

But lately, they seem to have, I mean, probably too late, but they seem to have taken it more seriously. And I was saying that I don't really, I do blame people in small towns, but I don't really blame people in small towns. We don't ever get anything. Like you think you're in a bubble. You're being told you're in a bubble. You know, like you, we got that move the Dougie, the dance. We got that last year. Like it takes forever to anything to get to us. And it was just called the Doug. Exactly. And my dad was terrible at it, even though that's his namesake. everybody keeps telling all of us and y'all are right except everybody keeps telling all three of us to please for the love of god stop touching our faces uh i haven't left my fucking house in four weeks i'll touch my goddamn face suck my dick yeah we're locked up our own homes washing our hands and all of that uh but i we appreciate y'all's concerns very sweet yeah that is nice but i literally i literally haven't like fucking left my house like at all and so i will say because i don't

leave my house or bathe anymore. I'm probably going to get pink eye from touching my face. Yeah. Yeah. Dude, if I hadn't had pink eye, I hadn't had pink eye since I as a kid, I don't think I can get it anymore. I had a call. Look at Joe on my cup.

I had a call with the other day, and we all ended up, like, sincerely sort of congratulating ourselves and each other because all three of us had happened to take a shower that day, like on the same day. And we felt like that was noteworthy, you know. We're like, we couldn't believe that all three of us. us had done that at once. Right. Andrea was complaining to me that she's been trying literally their whole relationship to get DJ to bathe to Noah Vale.

And then he finally got scared of the coronavirus. Then he finally got a lot of the virus and just started bathing like incessantly, like every hour. Did it go out again? Yes. We're still going. We are still. Let's just go into a straight up. regular thing.

It, dude, the fucking internet and Burbank sucks and it's bullshit. You should, when you do these things again, you should,

wait, are you on a desktop or your phone? I'm on a desktop. You should, do you have good cell phone service? I mean, it's okay. I don't think it's easy.

Because you can, you can hotspot. Sometimes the hot spot is better internet than your actual internet service. I've done that before. Like when I've been out there, and rid in a hotel and trying to do a podcast

and the internet, the hotel sucks. I just hot spot from my phone and it goes way fucking quicker. Just that why. So maybe try that. We'll try to get back on it one more time. No, no, because I made it a point to say that we wouldn't, so I don't want to do that again. I mean, I hear you, but if you still did,

then nobody would be mad. Do y'all want to try it one more time? And are you talking to do the phone thing? spot it. I have one bar right now on my phone. I'm making a way that's going to give it a try. Okay, you're probably right. Then fuck it.

Looking at Diffy's face makes me want to drink, especially with the stress we're under right now. Joe, you know what we're going to do in the future? Not right now, but is your internet hits, right? I mean, it definitely will next week because I just upgraded it. Yeah. I'm going to make you an admin on my page. There you go.

And here you can do it. it. That hits. Yeah, I just upgraded. I just upgraded from 200 to 600 megabytes per month or something like that. So. Me too. I've gained 10 pounds.

So many megabytes I've been taken. I don't hit. I'm drying the fuck out. I'll tell you that. Me too. I mean, yesterday was three, four days off. I need to take two weeks. At least yesterday it was, it's time to, it's time to do something else for me.

that's all I know what to say. How long did you drink, buddy? 26 hours straight. You know it's not right when instead of it saying how many did you have or how many bars How long did you just go? How many hours, bro? Yeah, how long did you drink? Now, it was like for like 26 hours straight.

Now, granted, I was like, I wasn't planning on nothing. I'm going to drink for 26 hours. No one's ever said that. But like, what happened was, is we did the stand-up show. It went well. It went surprisingly well. We did that Zoom show, is what I'm talking about. It went surprisingly well that, like, I had my adrenaline up,

my endorphins were going. And I had written out all my act that was pretty much brand new shit. And when I feel that the best time to write and the best time to tag stuff is like in that moment, like in that moment, when your adrenaline super up, your everything's super fresh. So I stayed up and I was fucking Monday morning quarterback. my shit and then I just got on a roll doing that and you know couldn't get out of it and then I never just never got worn out so the next I was like fuck it was like it was like lunchtime and

I was still awake and I was like okay well I'm back to go to bed and then fucking Diffie died and I was like well fuck I got to go in there and have a beer for Diffie and then it just started where I got to 5.30 p.m. and I was like if I can just make it a couple more hours I can just go to sleep regular and I sure shit did. I made it until midnight again and went to bed regular. And today I got up at like 80 o'clock in the morning and then just took a nap at lunch. That's not a couple more hours. 530, you realize you could just make it till a regular bedtime.

And then you said it was midnight. What did you do between 6 p.m. and midnight? I drank. Yeah, I drank for Diffy. What's crazy about, I don't blame me for drinking for Diffy at all. What's crazy about just drinking in general without sleep? like you're a some kind of horse. Yeah, I'm definitely a horse.

The only kind I don't want to fuck. Yeah, I'm definitely some kind of horse. Hey, y'all have been hitting. One thing I think we might should go ahead and do is see if we can holler at Brent real quick. We're no longer live, Joe, so you can edit stuff as appropriate, right? Yeah. Yeah, this is going to be a real fun episode of day. I know.

I'm sorry. Well, buddy. It's not your fault. It's not your fault even at all. Leave it in. issue wasn't happening. I'm not blaming you. I'm blaming God, as usual.

Leave it all in. They love this part. Yeah, I mean, fuck it don't matter. We're quarantined. They've literally, they've ran out of anything else to listen to. They have to fucking tune in. Yeah, can you see me? Yeah. You're looking good. Oh, shit.

You got plates on your wall, too. I got that shit. You got plates. Old records. Yeah. Yeah, I got, no, he's the plates. Plates, bitch. I thought those were wheels. I love plates.

I like to eat off them. Black, your fade looks fresh. Thank you. I just got a haircut. Is that right? Essential business. I look like Encino man yesterday.

Right, yeah. I think correct me if I'm wrong, black, but for a black man, being able to get lined up, that is an essential service, right? like y'all think. Actually, actually, yes, it is.

But my roommate happens to be a professional barber, so it just Oh, nice. It's so fresh. Hey, did you see or hear any of that nightmare we just had with the broadcasting live? Did you say any of that or hear you that? I did it.

I was cooking a hamburger. That was, yeah, a good choice. Good couple of their experience that we had. So, yeah, so we are not live. right. We were supposed to be live right now, but we're not. We're still going to, this is just going to be like a regular podcast episode. So we're just going to post it like we normally do because we can't get the live thing to not fuck up. Okay.

No pressure. You can say the N-word if you want. Whoa! Yo, that is fucking hilarious. I've never had a way to give me permission to say. That's a first time. That's so. Funny.

Can you talk about your red beard? If you want to, buddy. I kind of wants to, too. I'm a little obsessed of red beards. I think they're awesome. The busier it gets, the redder it gets, and I don't know where that comes from. But, yeah.

How often do people ask you if your pubic hair is also red? Like, I would say once every two months, at least, at least bi-monthly. I thought it would be more. I thought it would be more. Well, we travel a lot for stand-up. But our fans, they skew a little older and they skew a little bit more polite, like they're southern. You know what I mean?

And I don't hang out in bars as much as I used to. I feel like when I was younger, I got it a lot more often. Because drunk people, yeah, that's the first one, man. So, all right, y'all, both Corey and Drew, although Drew you guys have met, but not, and Corey and Drew and our entire listening audience right now, the voice you hear is the illustrious Brent Black, very funny, comedian and former rock and roll musician from Atlanta, Georgia, who. who met out, yeah, he's also from the South,

but we met out here in L.A. watching football. And I wanted to have Brent on for a very specific reason. We'll get to it a minute. But first of all, I wanted to say that we met in like a group of comics who were all watching football together, and I felt like me and you just kind of immediately hit it off in a pretty humorous way.

It was a magical moment, is what it was. As soon as he heard me talk, you know, and he was just like, oh shit, buddy, you're back home, you know, or whatever. And then we just probably didn't put it after that. Talk for like an hour straight before Corey, this is true. He juked me as a way to get out of the conversation. He was like, we were just, we were in the middle of talking like mid-sentence.

And Lamar Jackson did some crazy thing in the game. And Brent goes, oh, shit, did you see Lamar? He was just like, and then he just left and walked out the door. Let me tell you something. As a comedian, if you don't have at least 10 solid, repeatable exit strategies from conversations, what are you really doing with you like? Like literally.

I have like 10. Another thing, and this is the only one I would do before we really get to it, but another thing I thought was funny about when you and I met, we met the first time we all hung out watching football, And then the next week we all came back. You were not there yet. But Tone Bell, the guy that we like met through, he was there and I got, I ordered,

he asked everybody what they ordered to eat. And I said I ordered a shark hudery board, right? And he goes, he was like, and you know what? I'm actually kind of proud of you right now for that. And I started laughing. He was like, he was like, because man, I know, he's like, I know it ain't easy for, you know, a guy like you to order some shit like that,

in a bar in public in front of people or whatever. He was like, I know you come from redneck stock or whatever, and they don't be ordering a charcutory boards. And then he goes, he was like, matter of fact, you ordering a charcutory board is almost like black ordering a

charcutory board. He was like, y'all are kind of my like cultural bookings that I have. And then you showed up and you were like, what are you talking about? And Tom goes, Trey got a charcutory board, and you looked at it completely serious.

You were like, oh, shit, you got a charcutory board. Can I just? So anyway. Can I just point out how much I enjoy hearing you say charcutor reward with your acting? Like, listen, it is delightful. I love it. That's the word he used the first time y'all met was delightful.

Because I couldn't get over it. The way you were saying delight, you were like, it is delightful. And I couldn't know. Is that a word you usually use or is that just a word you describe when you like white people? Well, you know what? Yes. You know what? I use a lot of words. So. That's fair. Yeah. So delightful is one of those I throw in to pepper it up. Well, I'm not trying to insinuate you don't know words. I just never heard anyone called Trey or that accent delightful. So I was just happy that somebody was enjoying it. People like it, but they don't say delightful. Right. But no, it's kind of. whole thing, to be honest, just saying big work, you know,

saying smart things in a dumb way or whatever. But, like, even before I ever did comedy, like, I'd have my group of friends, like, when I moved to Knoxville for my big boy job, we'd go out for beers and shit, and, like, I got drunk enough. They would literally just start giving me words to say. Like, no jokes, the lines, just words to say.

Like, I remember one of the big ones was smorgasbord. They had me say smorgas board. like 15 times or something. And they're just... Not as delightful. Not as delightful. Dude, I think if I didn't know, I think if I didn't know what the word smorgasbord meant and someone said it,

my brain would immediately go, I bet it's about being fat. I bet that's got something to do with food and being fat. Don't it sound like a fat word, smorgasbord? No bit. Those people with the jails, you know, like that... Yeah. Smorgas. Yeah, the Pat and Oswald, the B word for it.

The smorgasborn. So, all right. Wait, wait, wait, hold on. Before, before you go on, I just say this real quick. So it's funny that you, that you said that it's delightful or whatever and how I reacted, because I was going to tell them being in L.A. for like the last year, I missed Southern accents. And I have a Southern accent, but not as much as other people because I worked in, you know, customer service of stuff for years. A friend of mine from Tampa, I mean, I'm sorry, Tampa Bay Bucks fan,

call me today. He lives in Atlanta though, because on his Facebook, I made a comment about Ozarks, and he was saying how some people don't like it. And I was like, well, that is because some people are dumb. And so he, I guess he felt the need to call me in response to my Facebook comment. And this is how he came on the phone. I was like, yo, what the fuck? Hold on. I was like, bro, I've been in L.A. for a while. I have to readjust my ears to Southern Jersey. I don't know what you just said, bro. He's like, oh, oh, you fancy.

A little bit. Do you have that thing? You said he called you and he came out the gate that way. Did your accent go up when you picked up the phone? Like somebody from back home can call me and I can see that it's that person and I'll answer the phone with a thicker accent without even thinking about it. Do you do shit like that? not like if I'm if I'm like back home and I'm drinking and I'm around my friends and I've acclimated already yeah but being in L.A. and not talking to anyone Southern for weeks and months at a time if like someone with a real thick Southern accent just immediately bombards me like I get no verbal.

They will like everyone with a thick southern accent. They just come up like I need a little bit of four point. I need some verbal lubricant. You can't just come up and start fucking me with like, even though I'm from the south. The thicker your accent, the further into the story you start whenever you start talking to somebody.

You know what I'm saying? Like someone with a super thick southern accent comes up to you and they start and are already in the second act of the story that they actually want to tell you. Like they've already had the friend that chopped their foot off with a lawnmower before you can even process like what the fuck is happening here?

Who is this person? Why is that so accurate? Why is that so accurate? It is. All right. So here's the thing I wanted to talk about specifically. Everybody's quarantined. Everybody's locked up right now.

Everybody's got their own perspective and experience on it. All of us are, you know, old and married and boring and all that, but you are not. You're a young, single man, vibrant, alive. single, lonely. Well, what in the fuck is it like? How is all this impacting all that?

A person with hope. Yeah. I'm not going to lie to you, man. It's really tough. You've got to dig deep inside. You got to look inside yourself and find the tough stuff. There's a lot of masturbating.

It's a lot of porn hub. It's a lot of overreact. eating excessively. This is all just the same. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. None of this is any different so far.

I didn't even realize you were talking about the quarantine for a second. Like off quarantine, life is amazing when you're single. Like when it's just you in here, it's pretty bad. I talked to a friend of mine from college for like the first time of forever because that's what you do when you're quarantined. And I'm like, yeah, how are you been? She's like, oh, you know, it's quarantine. I'm like, kids are driving you crazy?

She's like, yeah. And I'm like, well, at least you're locked up with your sex partner. She's like, yeah, married sex. Eh, that was literally her response. And I was like, okay, all right. Well, you know what? Since you brought it up, Corey, you have to call her when you get off quarantine.

We don't put everybody on front street maybe, but like, have y'all noticed a difference in either direction with quarantine? Yeah, we got freakier real quick. Yeah. And then that dissipated. So on our end, and, you know, I've been public about it. Like, me and Amber have been attempting to have a kid. As, you know, like, we've pulled, we've pulled the goalie, done all that.

Like, we're giving it a go. So, like, we're still doing that. But, like, this is kind of, this has kind of changed it for me because she's like, oh, well, you know, the one good thing about the quarantine is we're going to be together a lot so we can work towards having a kid more. And then my brain is like, it doesn't feel like we should have the kid right now because like if you get pregnant and like need to go to the hospital. She's like, well, hospitals are still open. I was like, I know they're still open, but like it's good to not go to them right now.

If you have to, that's like, you know, you go. But like I don't think that you just need to be going to a hospital like electively. And we can elect to not have the baby. So like, you know, but I mean, if you want to have. it's like black people in the police it's like you call the police I mean I can call the police bitch

yeah this is the exact same thing as how it is for y'all doing with the police in my experience having a child having a child with my wife is like being black and talking to the cops

exactly finally a white guy that gets it but yeah man during a quarantine How is that working? Are they just coming to y'all's apartment to harass you now since you're not allowed to be out? Yeah. Like the cops, do they just make rounds where they're like, you're like, do black?

I just look out the window. I just look out the window and every now, then like two white cops come and they're just like. You're staring at you. Yeah, giving you a finger eye, say. They have like the billy club, like in the 80s. They're like, hmm, you. Hey, so, but for real, though, about the day, like, what are the rules and do people care? Like, I sincerely don't know.

Is it considered, like, bad form to go over to some girl's house or something right now? Do you know what I mean? Like, is that a thing that, you know, everybody's just not doing or how? I don't know because I have a big apartment, so most girls are going to come to my house. but okay but have they been but have they or they like no i ain't going to do that right now so it's a mixed bag here's the thing i've only been here like nine months yeah so if i was back in atlanta

where most of my nudes are coming from in my inbox yeah yeah please it would be a different story yeah because i've only been here so long i've got like one and two girls over but it yeah no you don't know anyone that's willing to risk their health to suck your dick is what you're saying not yet whereas in Atlanta you're probably good guys all know that like that like that almost nothing will keep us from trying to get some you know what I mean like there was one of my favorite memes I ever saw was some dude in like war-torn Afghanistan he's walking down the road with a fucking rocket launcher on his on his shoulder

and he's holding his phone up looking at it texting and the captions said, I mean, we got some civil unrest, but I could still come through, you know. We don't give a fuck, like, generally speaking, you know, like, there's almost no thing, stupid thing we won't do. Well, especially because quarantine is, like, horny inducing, or at least it has been for me. Right. My dad claims, I don't know if I believe, I don't know, I kind of believe him. My dad claims that in the 70s, he drove drunk, mind you, from where I live to Cleveland, Tennessee, which is like, I mean, that's like a 30-something minute drive backwards because his buddy's car, the transmission was fucked up, but it would go in reverse.

And he had to go get some buses. That's what he claims. He got a phone call on a house phone, and it was like, this is the only car. I got so dad, dad fucking Ace Ventura at 30 minutes, drunk. Which means that if you, you know, if you got arrested in the 70s and were white, Jesus fucking God, what did you do? You got, you went free? Yeah, right.

I just felt like, backwards for 30 minutes. That's insane. I was not to say, is your dad in the Dukes of Hazard? Like, who does that? No, but he does have the banjo that was used to do their theme song, which is. I knew it. I was about to try to make some joke about how it's like,

no, but he used to play bass in a band with a guy that did, I knew there was going to be some anecdote. You didn't know that that dad owns the banjo from the opening the theme song of Dukes of Hazard? Drew, did you, maybe. I don't know.

I probably knew that. I don't feel like I've heard that before. I'm also trying to figure out, I mean, that was Waylon's version of that song. Who would have been his banjo player? do you know some studio guy yeah uh hey black let me ask you this we were talking about this earlier before everything he goes yeah he was like yeah bring it back to something that i know what the

fuck guy was talking about yeah i was literally saying i was like this motherfucker he brought up the dukes a hazard he did and then we went deep he's like you know what he wrote that one now it's like what he say i know who bobby brown is but like i can't talk about the third woman he'd be you know what I mean? Bobby Brown is still alive, first off, Drew, and did not beat women. Well, okay. Actually, neither one of us know either thing that we just said. Bobby Brown.

You said Bobby Brown. My brain went, my brain went to Bobby Bear because we were talking about Waylon Jennings. Also, I didn't say he was dead. No, no. Listen to me. This is where I went. You were talking about Waylon Jennings, and you said Bobby Brown and my brain turned that into Bobby Bear.

And so that's just what you said. Because we were talking about Waylon Jennings and country music and we just, I just heard, I heard and interpreted Bobby Bear. And I was like, why is Drew talking shit about Bobby Bear? He didn't ever do nothing to him. But yes, Bobby Brown absolutely beat the shit out of women. So fuck him. That's on me.

Sorry, Drew. When you said that and the way you said that, you're like, listen, Drew, Bobby Brown did not speak women. And I was like, oh my God. I did not expect this. This is a side of Corey I never knew existed. Like, turns out you are a hardcore Bobby Brown apologist. Like, out of your other.

No. Like, no, no, no. It's literally just because we were talking. I was in country music mode. And I thought he's talking about Bobby Bear. And I thought he was just running Bobby Bear's name in the ground for no goddamn reason. You know, like, don't act like that ain't happen. We killed Wallace fucking Sean.

Like, I was just trying to make sure that we were on our page and cues. It's okay that you did that, man, because that's your prerogative. Thank you. Nice. I'm sure somebody's just going to edit a clip of this where I'm just going, hey, Bobby Brown didn't do shit. He didn't beat women. He disciplined them, Drew.

I hope to God, when they do, it's a visual recording they put up so they can see my face. Because for about point he's black man, apparently. You do confuse the black man. And then I was like, no. I'd like to give a quick shout out to the three black people that are going to watch this podcast. They're going to get that my prerogative body brown joke. Yeah, I meant to explain it and I forgot for our phone. Hey, Black, I wanted to ask you about a thing we were talking about for everything fucked up.

We're talking about like, wait, pause. His last name's Black and he goes by his last name sometimes. Go ahead, Trey. Yeah, right, yes. Brent Black. Contacts. I was introduced him as Black, so I call him. Colin Black, although thank you for that, Durer.

I do. Hey, Black, what do you think of this? Black, listen up. It was really funny because when we were first, we thought we were going live and you were trying to test and see if he was on here, you just click live and you just go, hey, Black! And I was just like, whoa, what? Like, it was jarring to me. I was like, whoa, whoa, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. All right.

So are you, do you still, you talked about the guy from Tampa Bay or wherever calling you? Are you still in pretty regular contact with your people back in Georgia? and Atlanta at all? No. Okay. Through social media or whatever. I'm wondering, do you have any? In social media a little bit, but it's just the time difference is weird.

Right. Well, what sense do you have of how they feel about the coronavirus and all this shit in general? Um, so when we were first on quarantine, a bunch of my friends were like posting literal parties and clubs like, fuck coronavirus. And I was like, all right, wish I was there. That looks cool. And, yeah, now I've heard people complaining, like, middle-aged white housewives are going crazy on Facebook right now because they're like, I went outside and other people are outside. Those people are selfish. And I was like, but you were also outside.

Yeah, but that, you know, you're not a middle-aged white lady's brains were. Not like that. Kind of. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you're right. I did just make a hell of an assumption about you. Well, we...

First of all the middle-lake pot women on your fucking profiles and stuff. So, like, you know, I feel like it's got some basis. We had the same... They love your. We had the same exact thing, but opposite happened when we were alive. Someone commented, everyone's being very responsible here in Mississippi. And I was like, the only way you can know that is if you left your house and nobody was outside.

you're staying home and you just think everyone else is, but they're having a great time without you, Sheila. Exactly. And like people were like, yeah, I was literally, I went to the park today, and it looked like any other day at the park. I was like, because everybody did the same fucking thing you did. Dumbass?

Like, what did you think was going to have it? Well, I'll say everyone else was selfish. Out here, one thing that I think is different at the park, I saw like two or three families of two, four, or whatever, you know, with their kids. and they were moving together all around the park. Like they were together, but they didn't want to get within six feet of anyone else.

So they were moving as a unit. And I remember looking at those parents like, man, y'all got like three kids. You're going to murder one of them before the end of this. You can't be this close to those kids for that long, or you're going to kill yourself. Listen,

I feel for y'all. I don't know how y'all do it. I have no kids. I love them. I love other people. I love y'all's kids in small doses and small little doses. It's funny because when you have kids, it's literally the exact opposite. It's like, you know, there's an old cliche about it's like kids are like farts, you know.

It's like your own, you enjoy your own, but everybody else is kind of stank. But, no, I don't know much of my farts. I'm the only one of us on here right now who has kids. I have two sons and they're seven and eight. and it's all been, frankly, great. We watched tremors together yesterday. They loved it. We've been playing a shitload of PlayStation.

It's been awesome. But today started fucking week. I'm a school teacher now. Like, we got a homeschool. Like, everybody's having to homeschool their kids. And like, dude, that's a whole other fucking ballgame. Today was the first day of it. And I don't, it don't hit.

I'm not like. Great. Tries a teacher now. Is it because of it? of the lessons themselves or the structure of it? Because I'm like resisting making a joke about how apparently you've just never taught your kids anything. But I know that you have, but I know that you have taught them, you know, lessons in general. What is, sincerely I'm asking, what is different about it this versus teaching them to be polite? I'm genuinely asking.

Okay, my sons are seven and eight. They're young. They have like, they ain't at school. You know, like they're in their own living room where all they're hitting shit is. but they got, we're trying to impress upon them like, no, you're at school right now. Like, you've got to sit here and do school shit for hours. So they just hate it. They just don't want to hit for them. Right. It's just ain't the same dynamic.

But also, we haven't gotten any, like, we're supposed to be getting like lesson plans and shit from the teachers, but that ain't happened yet. So right now we're just having to make our own shit up. They just can't. They can't understand that the situation has changed in the familiar. your environment. Yes. Also, it doesn't help that dad, you know,

that daddy is sitting there four feet away from him playing the new Doom game on PlayStation, just like, just like hitting you to yell at them like, do your goddamn songs. Well, now we know.

Here's what he means, guys. He's like, yeah, it's been real hard to teach him, you know, because I want to play video game. Yeah. Yes. Y'all better be back there learning.

Right. I now realize why Trey doesn't want to get away from his kids the way some of my friends that I've talked to do. It's because you just ain't changed anything about how you live in your life. No. This is playing Doom. I would play PlayStation with with them like literally all day long, if not for Katie.

And that ain't good. That don't bit. That ain't healthy. But, you know. Does it. It helps you kill streaks. They're learning something, surely. You know what I mean?

I mean, I have to imagine, though, that being a child and you're used to like, You know, when you go to school, you got to have a school behavior kind of thing going and learn. And then when you're at home, you got your stuff and you're relaxed. And it's just like that would probably be hard as a job. You know what I mean? Like when they started doing all the sexual harassment stuff in the 80s and 90s and dudes that were like slapping their secretary's asses. Every day we're like, but this is my secretary. What is the problem here?

I can't fuck my secretary? This is America. What are you mean? My secretary. What a great fucking analogy. It's airtight because if anyone's like, you're being shitty, it's like, no, I'm calling them children. Like, they need to grow the fuck up.

Right. No, no, you're 100% right, though, about the, like, first part of it at least. Well, you're right about all of it. But I'm saying where kids are concerned, they have, like, they absolutely have, like, a home mode and a school mode. And the way I know is because I go and talk to their teachers at school about my fucking lunatic.

of a seven-year-old who literally climbs the walls all goddamn day. He fell off a three different high things yesterday in an 800-square-foot house. Like, he's a maniac. And I go and talk to his teacher, and she's just like, oh, he's an angel. He's such a girl. He's the best kid. And me and Katie are literally looking at, we're like, are you sure? Like, you got to write, we're talking about the same kid.

But, like, they just, they have different modes. And I'm saying they got to now be in school mode at. at home and that that ain't going great so far. We had a cousin, I won't say his name because some of my family listens to this, but they'll know who I'm talking about. I don't want to put him too much on black. Like he hit one of our other cousins in the eye with a piece of coal. He tried to set some house on fire.

He tried to set one of our aunt's house on fire. One time his dad was whipping him and he kept telling him to shut up. His dad kept whipping him and he was like, I'm going to keep whipping until you stop telling me to shut up. And he broke his dad. His dad finally looked at the mom and was like, I can't hit him. anymore.

He went to school? Never even got a checkmark by his name, dude. It was wild. It was something about like the principal and the building. They had heat that worked. Like suddenly he was fucking acting right,

you know? Yeah, it's fucking weird. Y'all need to do a, y'all need to go on their family swap show and like swap with a black mom. They don't break. They don't break. Okay.

I mean, I hear you, and I believe you, But I'm saying this was Uncle Jed. Uncle Jed had a, like, a fucking Skinnered flag with the Rebel flag on it, hanging over one of his windows. You know what I mean? He would play fucking guitar all day long. He worked at a chicken plant.

And like, I know what you mean, but like, don't think this was an accountant. He was like, Barbara, I don't think I could hit the boy anymore. This dude spoke through his one-to. He loved baiting his child. Like, he loved it. When he said- Don't get me wrong. He'd beat the kids.

Yes. When he said that to his wife, he said, it through one tooth. Like, I, he beat a redneck, this kid did. I'm not saying he could, he could win against a black mama.

I'm saying if anybody, if any white child could, it was Cousin Jerry. Fair. And so you did say his name. Yeah, you actually did. And then I thought,

well, it won't be a big deal unless Corey points it out. Hey, can I hear you say what game you were playing on PlayStation again one more more time?

Dude. The new doom What the old doom Dune Eternal Is it it? It's metal as fuck Dude fucking chainsaw and demons and shit All goddamn day

My mom made me throw away That original doom And I remember my argument to her She was like, she was like, it's literally the devil She freaked out when she saw it And I was like, yeah, but I'm whipping his ass You're kicking his ass, that's exactly right You kick his eye a sleep ass?

Yeah, kick the devil's ass. Maybe Chris got something about that. Do any of you guys know who Devin the dude is? Yeah, yeah, of course. He had an album, the cover art for the album. I don't remember the name of it, but the cover art was him sitting on a toilet, smoking a cigarette, and it was like, Devin the Doon. And I was like, go.

Bingo. Do you remember this skit where he had, where it was a country white dude was calling up to his studio? And he was like, I need the boom. I need the boom in the track. The boom! you know, boom. That's what it sounds like when you're just saying, do. Yeah.

It just keeps reminding me of that skit. Dude, on that note, one of the, one of the big, one of the bigger disappointments of my comedy career happened like two years before I actually broke through it all on the internet because I did a show in Huntsville, Alabama, and right after the comedy show, it wasn't in a comedy club. It was in like a, like a, just a performing art where they have music. and comedy, all kinds of shit. And after the comedy show,

they had a local rap show with a bunch of different rappers and hip hop acts, and one of the rappers had been at the comedy show. Then they did their thing. And then I was outside, I spoke of a cigarette,

and he came up to me, and he was like, hey, man, what would you think about, like, doing some, like, sketches on a mixtape? He was like, some, like, comedy skits on my mixtape. And I was just immediately,

I was like, you have no idea how badly I want to do that. I was like, I'm not kidding, man. I'm not fucking around. Let's please do that. My whole life has been leading up to this one moment.

You have no idea how much I want to do that. And then I never heard from again. I can picture it so clearly in my mind. It's like a dark alley. It's moonlight. It might be a little bit of fog. And he's like, do you want to do a comedy skit? And you're like, got damn right.

I'd do. Black, you should be in a Western man. That was a great fucking, I'm about to shoot somebody face. That was. Thank you. I practice it every day before I go to sleep for no reason. So, shit. Hey, listen, Black, I'm going to leave this up to you.

Because we said at the beginning of this, and I want to do it before we end. Joe Diffy died. We're going to talk about how hard Joe Diffy hits. You can stick around or you can fuck off if you don't feel like you have much to contribute to a Joe Diffy conversation. What do you know about Joe Diffy? That his name is funny? I don't know. I don't know.

I've never heard Joe Diffy ever before. Yeah. I was wondering who. I was like, is that Tiger King in his youthful days? He's from the same state. You know how early. We were doing the whole thing with Duke's A Hazard and Bobby Brown. I don't know the name of the black person he would be analogous to because that's the, like, we're, this is a deep cut.

You know what I mean? Culturally. It's from a different area. I get. I know. Yeah. So like he said, it's up to you. You can just learn as we talk about how much he did because coronavirus has murdered our friend, who we don't know.

He's not our friend. Wait. Wait, did he die from coronavirus? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, shit. That sucks. Yeah, 35 singles on the top country charts, black, and five number ones,

multi-platinum Grammy award-winning artist Joe Diffie died from coronavirus yesterday. That wow? Yeah, man. He sounds like it was a pretty big deal. He was. It was a big goddamn. You ain't never heard the song John Deere Green growing up in Georgia. I know you're in Atlanta, but still.

Wait, wait, wait. Cory, give it to him. Give it to him. They were farm kids Way down in Dixie They met in high school And Oh, he cut out

And Anything Straight to the hook Okay Well, let me tell you this, Corey First thing I thought is, man, Corey has the voice of an angel Yeah

Thank you. Thank you, Black. second of all, I think someone's saying that at karaoke at the Belmont like a month ago before the world ended. It's a really, that sounds a really popular. In John Deere Green on a hot summer night, he wrote Billy Bob Love Charlene and letters three foot high. No, that one. I think that's the song that they sing karaoke. It's a very popular.

Yeah. It's a very popular karaoke song. Because I remember John Deere was in the title, and I was like, man, how country is this fucking song? The most. Black? And dude that, yeah. Yeah.

90s. It's the quintessential 90s country jam. Oh, yeah. And I think 90s country is the most country because it's that weird mix of coming up out of the outlaw. So it still had some artistry to it, but also our people love to sell out and that was like the first version of, you know what I mean? Yeah, mixed with like artistry to an extent that doesn't exist anymore. There was definitely a lot of paint, not painted on blue jeans and driving down a dirt rope, but it was before it became a complete parody of itself. Because that stuff

in, for what it's worth hits, but now, you know, once it becomes just like the not another teen movie of that thing, it sucks. But this is right before that happened, in my opinion, and therefore it's really good. All right. I want to talk about where Joe Diffy is concerned is I feel like it could seem like. Joe Diffy occupies this weird space, I think, where it can feel like to other people maybe that we're like, that he's like a joke to us or something. Do you know what I mean?

It's like making a joke, but it's like they're, he's just awesome. Like, because you all had the, y'all had the Joe Diffy mean. I've told you before, before I ever met y'all at Dirty Santa, at White Elephant Shit, with the Salina Boys, I would bring a different framed and autographed picture of Joe Diffy to every one of them. Like a different fake quote on it that I signed myself and act like it was legitimate, you know, but it's like he's kind of like a meme, but that don't mean that that doesn't have to be he's the OG. Right. Would you call him the Tupac of country music? No. I think he's probably the ying-yang twins. From the window to the wall,

he'll switch off my balls. You know what's so funny, what's so funny that you bring that up? Earlier, I was literally thinking like, man, at times like these, the literal only thing I can think to say about this situation, and the best way to describe this pandemic is just all skeet, skeet, god damn. Like that thought came into my head.

That thought came into my head in the shower. I was just like, man, all skeet, skeet, god damn. So a long time ago, a long time ago, like when this was relevant, skeet, skeet and all that stuff was relevant, me and my home boys were super hot one day. We were just laughing at just how funny that is.

Oh, skeet, skeet, and we was like, man, what if you really did that during sex? And I was like, now I have to do it. And so the next girl I had sex with, I did. I was like, oh, ski, ski, ski. And she was just like, what the fuck is wrong? You know, I doubled over in laughter and she looked at me with disgust. Well, I've got to apologize to one of my buddies now.

not really, but like, I remember one time back in high school, it was right when Skeet, Skeet became, like, that song came out, and then before Dave Chappelle had explained to every, to white people, what it was, like, you know, white people didn't know, but Dave Chappelle explained it. And so, like, that was just starting to get out. And we were at school and we were singing or something. Somebody was like, what?

What does Skeet, skeet, skeet mean? And this dude, like, here's the deal. Like, it is, I guess, racist, but at the same time, he seemed like he. He was just like, no, this is what I heard and this is what it is. And this is what he said. He goes, oh, you don't know what ski, skiske means. And they were just like, no.

And he goes, that's the sound that, that's the sound that black dudes make when they're, when they're coming. That's the sound that they make. And I was like, like, like he literally thought that what you just said was real. And I was just like, I was just like, I was just like, dog, hatcher, that ain't, that ain't, that ain't it. Like that, he's like, you know, yeah, it is. But he didn't say it with like.

It didn't seem like there was any malice. He was just like, yeah, it's just, I don't know, man. It's just, skis, skis, skied. I don't know what to tell you. And everybody was like, okay. Um, you is, I would have been like, how do you know that? Yeah, right. What black dudes are you fucking, like?

He would have just been like, everybody knows that. Yeah. Just the fact. You know, I really. You never had a black dude come on you? Yeah. I really, that guy somehow been present for that story you just told Black. So I just look at Corey, like, look at God.

See? I've been saying it. See? I told you. I told you. I told you, motherfucker. Ten goddamn years ago, I told you. Doubting me?

Well, let's all say what our favorite song by the Diffy Man is and explain why. Okay, go ahead. Definitely. Y'all go ahead. Black, yeah, you can go first, buddy. You're our guest. My favorite one is third rock from the sun. Yeah.

The best one is pick up, man. I was saying earlier when I was talking to Corey that the best song was third rock from the sun, but it's not, it's just got the most of artistry to it. And you know, I'm attracted to that. You know how I am?

It's Shakespearean. It's a tragedy. It's so beautiful. It's so well done. It's wild. It's wild. It's a wild song to have been a 90s country hit. Like we were talking about it last night.

And like the chorus, like chart topping hit. Yeah. And in the chorus, he's like, you know, what he says, like, cause in effect, chain of events, all of the chaos makes perfect sense. When you're standing around, things come undone, welcome to the earth, or drop from the sun.

Like, those are like, those are weird. That could be like in a Prague rock song or something. Those lyrics would be. Like, they're weird. And the tale itself is such experience, because, you know, the person they're looking for at the end, the sheriff, is who we find out. started all this. It's a little bit of a butter, a fly effect inside one small town.

If you don't know, Black, what happens is some people are cheating. It leads to a wreck in which a big boy flies through a Shoney's parking lot, takes out all the power. They can't find the police chief. And then you realize it's the police chief who started all this in the first place by cheating on his wife. Every time. But, but pickup man, that's my favorite, but pick a man, I have to acknowledge is better. It is one of the 50 or 100 greatest country songs of all the time. I'd have to really set down and list them out to decide where it

stands, but it is undeniable. There is something women like about a pickup man. Like that's just facts. I listened to pickup man multiple times yesterday in honor of his passing and God damn, I want a truck so bad. I miss my truck. Me too.

Just something about a truck, you know. What's the protocol of buying a truck during a pandemic, by the way? because I saw one for selling one of my walks the other day. Essential. Just take it. I'll be the one who says it, I guess, just because, I mean, it's a boring answer,

but I really think we were also, we text, like, we texted for hours about nothing but Joe Diffy yesterday. But like with John Deere Green, I think you can make a genuine argument for John Deere Green as literally the quintessential 90s country song. I mean, I agree. It just sums it.

It's like, it's every, it's exactly. It's perfect. In a nutshell, right. It's the perfect example of what that was. Do you all have a water tower that people actually did that? Yeah. Because we do, we do too. Like that's, you know, our water tower and per like everybody,

it's like that didn't really go on a lot before that song. But once that song happened, you literally couldn't stop people from fucking spray painting people's names on the water tower. Yeah, man. Our water tower was right behind the high school. door to the factory where my uncle worked, the one that beat his kid, and people would come up there all the time, and this dude

Al would paint over all the lovers because his brother died and I was a drug dealer and everybody was afraid of him. But other than Al, painting that his brother should ride the lightning, every single one, I felt like was an homage to that song. Because it wasn't, on the water tower specifically, it wouldn't

be initials or any of that shit. It would be John loves, you know, Ashley or whatever. Yeah. You know, Drew, I'm going to let you finish. I don't want to disagree with you guys. And those are all great songs. All right.

I'm going to have to go with prop you up beside the jukebox. I'm going to tell you why. I'll give you two reasons. I'll give you two reasons, all right? First reason is in the video, the way the light hits is majestic

mullet. It just does something for you. You know? It's like, man, strength. America. freedom. That's what rings out of that. Second reason is, because that's one of the first songs that came up when I googled it. Well, it's also, you know, now that he's dead,

it's appropriate. Yeah. Yeah. It's a little appropriate. It's a little, oh, shit, it does say in parentheses, if I die. Yeah. Jesus. You learn that in real time very much. Yeah, this is, it's legally binding. That was his last will and test. estimate that song, that video. It should be treated as such. I agree. I agree. I mean, it'll be weird, but, you know.

I agree. And then I think about, yeah, his grandkids being like, yeah, I guess he had a cool song. But, like, I'm saying what? Y'all have seen what corpses look like at funerals. You know what I mean? Like, just that, but just sat up beside a jukebox that's hit me. Put his sunglasses on. It'll hit.

I wish DJ was here so bad more than I usually do because DJ has been on a thing on our podcast about there's a company in Brazil. It's like a thing now where they're like pose you, play in PlayStation or whatever it is you like to do. And DJ loves that shit because he's all about being death positive. So like DJ is very into. Death positive. They used to do that.

Way back in the day they did that when you had to like sit for a long time for pictures. If somebody died without having a picture being taken, they would like pose them. We have a picture of one of those at my parents. Oh, you mean like Sandra Bland? Sandra Bland? I know.

Is that what you're talking about? Is that you got a new name for a white lady or what do we? No, that's that lady that got killed by the cops in Texas, but I don't understand the reference other than that. Because when they took her mugshot, when they lied and said that they took her to jail alive, they literally laid her on the floor, opened her eyes and took a picture of a mugshot. I'm sorry. Yeah, it was a deep one. I regret my response to that. I was like, one of these white guys will get it.

I knew as you was, but I forgot about the pose in her body. God damn. Was the joke then that she was propped up doing what she loved getting arrested? I don't understand. Is that? No, Trey was talking about when they take pictures of dead people. To make them look like they're alive back in the day. You're supposed to think they're alive in the picture.

when they actually had died. I misunderstood you. I thought you meant back in the day they did that, but in a way, like DJ's thing, like they posed them in a way that they were doing something at the time. Yeah, they just,

the picture we have, it's a girl, she died, it's my granny's, like my granny's grandma, sister or some shit like that. She died very, very,

very young and they just propped her up where she looks like she's just standing next to a chair and they took the picture of her and then they would have somebody come over and paint the picture because they were on black and white. So it looks double creepy. It looks like a, I don't know, it's a cartoon-looking thing of a dead girl that's just

at my parents' house. Well, Corrie, we wound up where we are, but I still would like to hear your answer, by the way. Okay, well. Joe Diffy question. Yeah, well, no, and I'd love to give it. So I agree with what you said that John Deere Green, it's pretty much like, like to me, if I was writing a movie about this.

South in the 90s, I would have, like that song would have to be in it. Like it just, it says, oh, this is this time period more than any song, uh, does to me. And I also think that it's probably because of that technically my favorite. I love the, it's just great. It's a sounds good, great lyrics. I love the themes. I love it's unique. Uh, but if I'm going to go with the one that really just gets me like super emotional, which I feel is an important thing in country music, like that, that really elevates a song to me if it makes you feel a certain way. the one that always makes me, like, especially yesterday, good God, I cried so much, listen to it, is ships that don't come in.

Yeah. I mean, we got the chorus. Here's to all the soldiers who have ever died in vain, the insane locked up in themselves, the homeless down on Maine, to those who stand on empty shores and spit against the wind and those who wait forever for ships that don't come in. It gets me every time. I think it's absolutely tremendous. And, yeah, I kind of want to leave now and go cry on.

Yeah, it is about time to wrap it up. I'll say, like, people have, they remember the diffs, you know, major hits, but he had a lot of them. There's a lot of other ones in there, bigger than the Beatles home. I love bigger than the Beatles. Is it cold in here? So help me, girl. That's a jam.

He had a lot of, he had a lot of. The Devil Dance with Empty Pockets? Yes, that's a great song. Great song. Bigger than the Beatles, bigger than the Beatles spawned my favorite, probably one of my favorite Cletus T. Judd parodies, which was she's got a butt that's bigger than the Beatles, which I always have for me.

What I love about that song, and I realized that only yesterday, he mentions the Beatles, the Eagles. I just love that the Eagles made it in there in Joe Diffy's world. Yeah, hell yeah. You guys.

Her love, because he says her love gets me higher than the Eagles. I mean, of course they, you know, of course it made in. You guys totally left out that, the title,

third rock from the sun. No, no. Drew started with a third right from the sun. That's my favorite, but it's not his best. That's the one where the sheriff was cheating on his woman. So, yeah, well, overall, I do have to say that this podcast was a fun and enjoyable, unmitigated disaster. Sin meant to have taken place entirely live the whole time, and we got through about eight combined minutes of that and just couldn't get it to work. but we're going to attempt it again.

We've got a plan. We think we'll work and make it so that doesn't happen. So that's our hope. So we are going to give another shot. But we're glad that y'all are listening right now, however you're listening. Brent Black, everybody. Black, give us your, how can people find you? Yeah, if they want to come over.

Mr. Black Worldwide. Say that again. Mr. Black Worldwide, M-R-B-B-L-A-C-K. A-W-O-R-L-D-W-I-D-E. You got it. I got you squinted at the end. You made it through. A little bit.

A little bit. Black Worldwide on Instagram. And thanks for joining us, buddy. Drew, Corey, y'all got anything people need to know. And I'm having a moment of silence for Diffy's starting now. Actually, they're fucking inside and wash your hands and don't eat nobody's ass unless you ate their ass before this pandemic.

I'm going to say it because, I mean, it ain't like we're going to not do it. Corey's already posted about it stuff. It is happening. and stay tuned for our very special podcast mini-series about Tiger King, the ubiquitous Netflix docu-series that the whole world is talking about. But you know what? I'm not hearing enough white trash voices commenting on this. I agree.

White trash culture. But you know what? Brett not because we're right here. We got it coming to you and it's going to hit. All right. I'm Trey. That's true. There's Corey.

There's Brent Black, everybody. We'll see y'all next time. Skew! Blue! Black, I'm going to need you to skew. Yeah, nailed it. All right.
