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.
Starting point is 00:00:36 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 main? 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.
Starting point is 00:00:58 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 any more, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create custom budgets based on your past spending.
Starting point is 00:01:32 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 practice.
Starting point is 00:01:59 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 had a, I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friends' faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got, 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 cue ball looking twin fellas. Yeah. So that was that in response to? What was that reply I give for just when I did something stupid. Something fat 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
Starting point is 00:02:39 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.

Hey, hey what's up everybody?
Starting point is 00:03:14 Welcome to the well red podcast. We'd like to thank our sponsors over at get superleaf.com. We've been talking about them for a couple weeks. It's cratum. Cratum is an all natural herb related to the coffee plant that has been used in Thailand for centuries helps energize your mind, relax your body. And it just, in my opinion, makes you feel good. What say you, boys? Yeah, I've been a big advocate for it for a while. As y'all know, I'm, I like the, I like the leaf myself, the powder, but that's all
Starting point is 00:03:43 it is, it's just ground up leaves from this plant that grows over there. So it's just straight from the earth. That makes a hit, you know. But if you're not into the, you know, eating ground up leaves thing. You can get capsules. Recommend capsules for beginners. And it's just like taking pills, pills hit, except it's earth pills, it's leaf pills. So, you know, it's better than other types of pills. They've got different kinds of strains.
Starting point is 00:04:05 I like them all. I'm, you know, I don't discriminate when it comes to hitting with cratim. But either way, they offer 100% satisfaction or your money back guaranteed. And I can pretty much guarantee you will be satisfied.
Starting point is 00:04:19 If you're not, I feel like you're doing it wrong somehow. For sure. How strong I feel about. Two things, too. You just talked about pills, but you don't feel impaired, which is awesome. You can take this like your morning coffee, go to work, you know, all that stuff. We recently made a change. Our code can be used again and again, not just one time. So if you already used it, use it again, and you can get 20% off with that code, which is well-read.

And we really appreciate getsuperleaf.com for not only sponsoring this podcast, but for also sending me some of that sweet, sweet cratum that I took right before this podcast.
Starting point is 00:05:10 So appreciate you. And now on with the show. Shkew. They're the Hebrew rednecks day like cornbread, but six, they care. way too much but don't give a fun They're the Never rednecks that makes Some people upset
Starting point is 00:05:31 But they got three big old dicks That you can suck Well, here we are We are here We are all in our disparate locations Here I'm on the internet For this one, which is fine What now? What'd you say?
Starting point is 00:05:50 What are you mad about? I knew it was going to happen What? Disprit, Like, disparate. Okay, right. You could have just had that. You call me disparate?
Starting point is 00:06:01 Huh? It doesn't it said to me. Did you know that fucking Nick Nolte turned 80 today? No, I didn't, but that checks out. It does check out, but like it's still when you really put it, you're like, man, Nick Nolte made it to fucking 80. Like, that's kind of something else, you know?
Starting point is 00:06:20 I wouldn't be surprised if he's like vegan. and does yoga every day. He seems like just generally insane person. So I could see him railing a bunch of Coke in Bali for a little while, but only because he had been there for two weeks, eating nothing but soy and vegetables and stretching every morning. He does wear a lot of flower shirts. I'm sure there's plenty of evidence to the contrary for what I'm about to say.
Starting point is 00:06:47 But I feel like with people like that, they either, like, die pretty young. You know, they explode in a fireball somewhere, you know, while on peyote or some shit. Or they actually live or they got that like cockroach gene or whatever, you know, and they just like they just stick around forever, I feel like that is. That is kind of true. Like you don't see a lot of like 72 year old, you know, hardcore druggies dropping. Like they either would drop in their 30s or 40s or it's Keith Richard shit.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Yeah. Also, I don't know. I don't know Nick Nott. Is he like, is he still whiling? I don't know. I mean, you're just,
Starting point is 00:07:28 I'm fucked up and stuff. I mean, I know he had his go down. I'm judging just based on that one fucking mugshot, and that just looks like a guy who has one speed and it's speed. And he, yeah, and he does look,
Starting point is 00:07:40 one years old now, though. Yeah. He does look 80 in that picture, but he could have been 45. Yeah. Because the sun will fuck up your skin more or as much as hard living. It's so funny to think that Nick, might be a straight-edge, just insane person who's going to live into his hundreds.
Starting point is 00:07:59 And, I mean, you know, he could have got it together. I'm almost certain that he had, like, either issues with the bottle or the bottle plus other things. But I'm saying I don't know he could have beat that more than a decade ago for all I know. I kept up with Nick Nolte. And I think that, like, Gary Busey, I think he got, like, didn't he get, like, kicked by a horse or something like that? like uh yeah and it transferred all its energy to him and that's why yeah no but like gary busey he like he something happened to him didn't it i think he got kicked by a horse like i genuinely it might not be that but it's like definitely in the genre of he did he steal the horse's teeth
Starting point is 00:08:39 and that's why the horse kicked him yeah yeah yeah yeah right they the horse lost to gary busey in a horse looking like contest yeah and it kicked him had of jealousy fucking mad. So I guess, now, he wrecked his Harley while not wearing a helmet.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Yeah. And, you know, split his skull open. And he says, he says, and then passed away
Starting point is 00:09:10 after brain surgery and went to the other side, the spiritual realm, where I received information. He didn't use none of it. He didn't give us no commentary on what the info is. Well,
Starting point is 00:09:21 that ain't us to know, Drew, I don't think. You know he's got one of them judge shows? Did it work? We know the producer of that. Yeah, Jack, yeah, no, it went. It's the thing.
Starting point is 00:09:34 I haven't seen any of it yet, but it's... I haven't either. It went, yeah. I was going to bring that up, but he's judging animals. Yeah, that's right. It's like horse court. Horse court. It's not... I don't think it's called...
Starting point is 00:09:47 I don't think it's called horse court. Dude, I think it's called Animal Court. That's what it's... I pitched it as. Yeah, hold on. It's called Gary Bucy Pet Judge. Okay. It should be called, it should be called a horse court.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Horse court's number one, but pet judge, I admit, is way better than animal court. Yeah. Yeah. That's, I mean, that's one of those shows that I sit there and I go, man, there's no way that can't not hit. It's Gary Bucy doing judge shit with animals, but at the same time, like, I ain't, I ain't seen one clip. You think I'm a flip floating around. I can't believe that ain't gone viral. I know.
Starting point is 00:10:26 I'm pretty sure. It comes in there. Cats on trial because he ate all your shoes. You know what I mean? The dog definitely did it, but Gary likes the dog. I could see that. What was Bucie like? What were his,
Starting point is 00:10:37 I mean, because like now he's one of those that's just like famous for being Gary Bucy. But like, obviously. I know it. I know the main thing. Yeah, what was the main thing? Hold on. I could be a dog lawyer.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Yes, you could be a dog lawyer. I'm sorry, guys, I have to go. I got to email Jack. That's okay. I'm going to be a dog lawyer. They have them on there? Well, somebody's got represented that dogs. If they don't, I'm going to file a complaint with the dog constitution.
Starting point is 00:11:08 I say fucking dog. Just like, no, actually, I'm going to represent myself. What was, so what was, because again, I know that Gary Beasie's been in a shit done of stuff, but like, now. When he was younger, he played Buddy Holly in a Buddy Holly biopic. That was like a pretty big deal. I think he got nominated for awards and stuff like that for it. And that was like that was the thing that like really solidly put him on the map. And then he hung around after that.
Starting point is 00:11:36 But I mean, yeah, at this point for if he's decades, he's been mostly famous for being a lunatic. Yeah, because if Gary Busey's in something now, he's having to play Gary Busey. Like you can't just cast him as like. someone's dad in a thing unless the dad is like a lunatic a gary bucey type and they just do that but that's that's weird there's a couple people that have that like charlie sheen definitely is that like he he's the type of person that if he plays something it has to be himself yeah so i watch you this um raised by wolves you all watch that HBO right yeah riddly scott well it's like It's weird.
Starting point is 00:12:20 Like, Ridley Scott, I've directed, I think, all of the episodes, but he's not like the showrunner. Usually in TV, the director is less important than the main writer. They kind of run through them. That's how TV works. And normally, yeah, TV shows have a bunch of different directors. But I guess when you Ridley Scott, things just work, however. James Gunn, too.
Starting point is 00:12:42 Oh, he did that with Peacemaker? Yeah, he directs all that. But he's probably, but is he not like the, he ain't like the showrunner or whatever? I mean, I don't know, but I'd say probably, yeah, but I just remember that me, like, that stuck out to me because, like, normally there's a different director for every... I don't know, but I bet he's at least partially in charge of the running of that show, probably, because he's writing. He writes and directs his movies. Ridley Scott is, like, just a director. So, like...
Starting point is 00:13:09 That's wild, because, like, do you think he gets paid the same? Like, I've heard his name be associated with the show. Do you think it was just like a... no, I'm a director. That's what I do. So you're going to put director on this credit, but he's still making all the important decisions? Or is there a showrunner who's doing more?
Starting point is 00:13:27 I don't know. I don't know because normally the director doesn't make the important decisions on the TV show, but he's Ridley Scott. So it's like, it seems hard to believe that he's not. I don't know how that all works. But I only brought it up to say that like,
Starting point is 00:13:39 Drew, I know you watch Vikings. I didn't, I watched like the first season or two of Vikings. I didn't dislike it, but I wasn't all that into it. But the guy that, the main Viking in that show,
Starting point is 00:13:50 I remember thinking, I was like, this motherfucker seems like an old Norseman or like a medieval Norseman to me. I was like, he's really knocking this out of the park. I thought,
Starting point is 00:14:01 Travis Femmel, right? So Travis Femmel is one of the leads and raised by wolves. And like, he ain't not hitting for me. This show takes place in the future, but it's got this weird, like,
Starting point is 00:14:13 futurist medieval thing going on. So it's like kind of a hybrid deal, but he seems much the same to me in this show. He's not not hitting for me, but it's like, when I watched him on Vikings, I was like, this dude's really doing a thing here, like playing this Viking, you know what I mean? But I watch him on this show, and it seems like he's doing the same thing. So I'm like, maybe he's one of those actors that, because like a lot of leading men, they kind of do just by themselves, but he's got a very distinctive version of that.
Starting point is 00:14:46 I don't know. I wouldn't have thought the guy that seemed like a real Viking would be a I always kind of play myself type of dude. But it seems that way to me. All right. So I've got to think for him. If there's any part of me that's gay, Travis Hemel's right in the fucking wheelhouse. Loved Vikings. Loved him in it.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Know a lot about him. Before I get into that, I respect him. I'll tell you guys why. This is a quick aside. From the previews, it looked a little bit like, are you familiar with Brave New World? One of the main premise of Brave New World. I read the book. They made a show.
Starting point is 00:15:17 I don't know. No, I mean the book. The main basic part of it is there's a very advanced society and then there's a group of people who chose to live outside of that because they hate it. Is that what this is or are they forced to live outside of it because they're like the wrong race or something? So they are, first of all, I'm only like three episodes in. It's one in wild-ass shows where they don't, you know,
Starting point is 00:15:40 it's all but still being revealed. But they're... That's cool. It's like 200 years in the future and there's like a new crusade, like except it's atheist fighting. believers, but the believers are not Christians. They've made up a different religion for humans in the future. And it's like believers versus non-believers in a holy war. That results in the apocalypse. And then they both- The literal apocalypse? Like the biblical.
Starting point is 00:16:04 The literal apocalypse. They go, they explode the earth. They kill, they murder the earth with their holy war. And then they go to a new planet to, you know, colonize it, right? And they have their different methodologies about colonizing it, but so they're colonizing a new planet. So it's like they're primitive and from the future at the same time. They got robots and shit, but they're starting all over. So it's like caveman slash fucking android shit going on the whole time. So that's why it's kind of both at the same time. But the religious faction, they look like, they're like modeled after the Crusaders. Like their uniforms and shit look like crusade uniforms, even though it's in the future. Like the white. It's all real wild.
Starting point is 00:16:48 well they don't have a cross it's a different thing they worship like the sun so it's a but it looks like it looks like medieval crusaders but reformatted to fit this belief system or whatever i mean it's all well done it's pretty rad and wild but yeah it's all right that was on me it's gonna sound like i'm making fun of you i'm not that was totally on me i asked you a question about a show and said it was going to be a quick aside and that I should have known better and I'm generally not making funny you that's definitely on me because that's your shit I knew you were going to explain it and I appreciate that explanation. Travis Himmel. Femmel sorry is one of those underwear model turned actors but and he's making noises because I said his name. But that cum noises?
Starting point is 00:17:38 Yes. But he was I think Calvin Klein and obviously he's got a rugged, lawn look. That's a very specific thing in Hollywood because most supermodels in the male persuasion just look like women. I mean, that's just a fact. Jim Gaffigan's new special, it's great if you haven't seen it goes to watch it. He has a whole joke about how like all the hot guys look like women.
Starting point is 00:17:58 Timothy Chalamai looks like a girl for sure. So then there's a few rare people. Brad Pitt is probably the most like pin ultimate where you're pretty but very masculine. Himmel has that. So he got recruited by Hollywood. He did a few roles. Was it terrible? He was like one of those people who could kind of act.
Starting point is 00:18:14 and his agents were like, you know, all right, we're going to do this, blah, blah, blah. And my man, he's Australia, Mike, said, fuck this. Like, I take myself way too seriously. I know I'm just a pretty face and I could make hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars doing this as the face in a movie and whatever, have a career. But I'm going to just stop all together, went through three years of acting classes before he even would take an audition again, which is super brave because it's not like he's the only good-looking person in the world. and then started auditioned again, and I think Vikings was the second thing he auditioned for. I think he was unbelievably great in Vikings.
Starting point is 00:18:53 It's the only thing I've seen him in post all that, that sabbatical he took. So, you know, you're probably right. I haven't seen it yet. I'm going to assume you're right and agree with you. There are plenty of leading men who can only do themselves. I think it's cool that we got one who does a thing that's not as common. common. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:19:16 I think there's a certain level of good looking that I could be to where I would be confident. I heard that he, I also heard that he drives around L.A. and walks her, like, goes into places barefoot and drives an old truck. Andy's just telling stuff, telling us stuff she likes about him. This has been the bean flick an hour with Andy Morrow, everybody. Corey called this the bean flicking air. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You already made fun of me for being raving. I'm about to be raving again. Do you say Brad Pitt was the pen ultimate something earlier?
Starting point is 00:19:50 Yeah, you're going to tell me that pin ultimate means not ultimate, but the one before ultimate? It means the second to last episode. Yeah, I know that. I just missus it a lot. What? Oh, you do that? Yeah, I know that. I just misused it a lot.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Oh, just as for you? Just to. No, it's just a mistake. Like, like, like, like, like trying to do the nice version of what I did to you earlier. I'll tell you exactly what I had a chance. Drew's just, he's just real good at, he's real good at that because he knows that you just got zero satisfaction out of that whatsoever. Yeah, I made a mistake.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Anyways, move on. Fucking word boy. Like, it was perfect. Yeah, but he said makes him mistake a lot. But I know people do that because I have, I have nine and a 10-year-old son, and they do that all the time. like where they get something in their head wrong and they can't get it out, they can't get it in their head right after that, no matter what.
Starting point is 00:20:48 Like I said, like Bishop exclusively refers to the Rock as Rock the Dwayne Johnson every time. I believe in my heart he's hitting. Every time I correct it. It was like, but every single time. Because Bishop plays Fortnite and the Rock is currently of, of course on fort it's just a word and it's just a character skin that looks like him he's not he's not talking or anything they just made a thing that looks like the rock on there but he's on fortnight and bishop plays fortnight so like it's come up frequently and every time he calls him rock the
Starting point is 00:21:26 duane johnson and every time i correct him it that it never sticks so fucking fortnight oh you know what you know what we probably should do we should take a break real quick we should yeah. Anyways, Fortnite, you blew my mind with that shit, not just in the game,
Starting point is 00:21:46 but that, like, I had no idea that it was free and then I started Yeah, but it ain't, though.
Starting point is 00:21:53 I mean, it is, I know, but it ain't. Right, but if you're somebody like me, I will never pay shit
Starting point is 00:21:58 to play that game. Me and Katie, I know I mentioned before, but me and Katie have fucking started playing Fortnite when they go to bed
Starting point is 00:22:06 and shit at this point, which I never would have thought would happen. I'm very, and I was about to say, me and her have never spent a dime on it. But the way they get you is like, it's mostly kids
Starting point is 00:22:15 that play that game. It is 100% free unless you want cool shit. And if your kid wants cool shit and all of the cool shit on their cost money and it's so insanely popular, dude, they're making fucking billions of dollars off that guy. But you can't make it free. I've never
Starting point is 00:22:33 spent a penny on it. Me or Katie. They've got to make their money fucking somehow and it's not like there's a guy co-ed that pops up in the middle of the game. So what the fuck ever, But because of that, like, I didn't realize this. Like, that's becoming more of a thing now, like certain gaming. So, like, my buddies have been playing Call of Duty for a while, you know, and they keep hollered at me.
Starting point is 00:22:52 They're like, oh, you need to play Call Duty, Call of Duty. And, like, as much as I'm such a wasteful person with money, but, like, I don't play video games enough. I was like, I'm not, I can't play video games enough to justify spending 60 bucks on some game. Then I'm going to play one time. And then my buddy's like, do what are you talking about? It's free. And I was like, oh, shit.
Starting point is 00:23:10 word and he goes yeah man ever since fortnight did that these other companies realized like damn we better put out our free version too well if you think about it if you think about it it what fortnight made it to wear like a fully fledged video game it was feasible to do that with but if you think about it that's just like how cell phone games and should have worked for like a long time i was going to say yeah they had ones i got addicted to mobile games really started that we ever talked about that on the podcast? Yeah, we talked about it in the podcast. You guys made fun of me for like two weeks straight. Drew was
Starting point is 00:23:45 Drew was like very very... Cartageryville or something. Toon Town. Tune Town. Drew had a problem. We had to send him away for a while. Tune Town, arguably the pin ultimate pay as you go game. If you remember, we didn't Some of that is like predatory. It's like
Starting point is 00:24:02 fucking phone shark and you type shit. I'm a victim. Yeah, right. That's why we didn't pour in the summer of 2018. Drew was at a fucking rehab center trying to get over his addiction to Toon Town. Dude, in all seriousness, going off tour probably helped me with that stuff. I mean, I think I was already starting to kick it. As I recall the timeline. I got a new one called, it's such a dumb name, WoodDoku.
Starting point is 00:24:25 It's like Sudoku, but wood. Yeah. And it's just a color. It's wood. Yeah, it's wood blocks and it's Tetris C. It's Tetris-like. And so far, they have not offered to sell me. me anything other than an ad-free experience.
Starting point is 00:24:42 And I'm going to be honest, I need to ads because they suck me out of it. And I'm like, oh. He fresh for you. Yeah, yeah. Okay. So the last time this happened, he wasn't. I know. He was only frozen for me, so I wasn't going to say anything.
Starting point is 00:24:58 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm back. He's back now. Hey, buddy. He's back now. Sorry, I had to pause. Are you still not hurting? No, he's not.
Starting point is 00:25:10 For you? No. I don't have for me either. No. You're kind of... Fuck, man. I'm making great jokes, too. I think maybe you're back now.
Starting point is 00:25:18 Maybe. I have to ask, Corey... I'm home. What is wrong? I'm in the fucking... What is, uh... What are you drinking, Corey? Oh, this right here is my polar pop.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Because it's comical. Yeah. What's in that? So, right now it is my... Now, before I... before anybody gives me shit, it's my diet sweet tea. Like it's sweet tea, but made with like Splenda. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:25:47 So this is full of sweet tea. Normally, though, what it is is my DDP, my diet, Dr. Pepper. See, I live on a road where the gas station's right at the end of it. And this free shout out to my friends over at Circle K, Polar Pop. What you do is this, a whole gimmick here is you go away. You ask. So you're drinking. How many house?
Starting point is 00:26:06 You've got a truck driver size soda thing. I think you funny. I just walk down there and fill it up every morning. I do. No, three times a day. About 10.30, something like that. Then I go back and good another. Three times a day, Diet Dr. Pepper and Splendez Sweet Tea.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Think that asper tame? Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's what's going to get me. Is that what burns your face? That, you do be shiny right now. Yeah. You some burnt?
Starting point is 00:26:35 Yeah, I am sunburn. Look here. Look what I did. Hold on. Where's my picture? there? No, it's the fucking sun's out. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Where's it out? I want to brag on my fucking self, but I can't. Yeah, the show's ultimate hell. It's my goddamn, I did, I did 12 miles yesterday. All right. No, 10.5, I lied, 10.5. How did it get to your face? Just fucking, being out there with a goddamn backer's hat on?
Starting point is 00:27:03 I know, but you always got a hat on. Yeah, but like, when I run and stuff, I have the. Oh, because you run so fast. I have the wind to blow it off. No, I wear it. That's a wind burn, cuz. I wear the lips. I wear the wind.
Starting point is 00:27:15 You can see that my lips. They are. And that's the cold, too. I wear the, you know the, the things that everybody was wearing at the beginning of the pandemic as a mask, and then we found out like,
Starting point is 00:27:25 oh, those don't really work that much. Gators? The Gators? The Gators? Baclav. Yeah, Baclav. Yeah, Baclavas a dessert, but Bala clava.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Bala clava. Yeah, yeah. I wear that on my head because, as you know, I ruin. Like I sweat so much. Well, that is like a headband and it also keeps it off my neck a little bit, you know. Okay. So I do want to circle back.
Starting point is 00:27:51 Yes, I'm out there to do rag. To get a diet, Dr. Pepper and you burn your lips. No, that's when I'm, my lips do not hit right now. They hurt really bad. Like most of them. My lips have been fucked up for weeks. Traveling in and out of the winter has been fucking. Most of it.
Starting point is 00:28:05 I mean, I've been using chapstick. Yeah, you look like you went skiing without goggles. or a face mask. A lot of it is, most of it is cold in the wind, but like, we've had like really sunny days. Like, dude,
Starting point is 00:28:16 it was 65 degrees yesterday here. Yeah. It's, it's like, it's like we really, straight up warm here. Our winter has been, we've had like three really cold days.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Our nights have been pretty cold. But like, we've only really had three cold days. And other than that, like, you know, like I've played golf a good, bet this month, which ought not be.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Well, I went to where DJ is in rural Minnesota, and one day it was negative two. And DJ was like, buddy, this ain't shit. It was negative 28 a week before you got here. And I was like, well, that's good because I would have left. Is he used, like he's used to it? I mean, as much as he can be, the thing is, he's got a wood heat stove with a real good insulated spot he's living in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:06 And like, man, you know, I've experienced that in the south where you like your granny had a wood stove or whatever and you can't really control it. It's either hot or freezing. The thing about it there is, you just want it hot. So you just keep it out. And like, it works like a motherfucker. I get in his house and just start sweating immediately, even though it's negative
Starting point is 00:29:23 two out. I texted, you know, in the group texts with DJ, I put this in there, but I haven't said it on the podcast. One of my mom's various trailers that we briefly lived in, you know, for being forcibly removed
Starting point is 00:29:38 at some point was a single wide trailer that had a fucking wood burning stove in the living room of it and this was during the brief period where she was married to my drunken stepdad who I may or may not still have
Starting point is 00:29:54 and who may or may not still be even alive I'm not sure about either. He may or may not still be your stepdad is what you're still married? I don't think that they didn't ever get they just didn't fool with getting a divorce you know but he might be dead like I feel like maybe I heard he was
Starting point is 00:30:08 dead at something. But either way, he was only actively my stepdad for like two years or something. My maybe dead stepdad. My maybe dead stepdad. Yeah, right. So it's hard to say. And I, yeah, whiskey tango, baby. But anyway,
Starting point is 00:30:24 during that brief period where they were actively married and together, we lived in this single wide trailer that had a fucking woodburn stove in the living room. And like said, he liked to drink. And he didn't like fucking with that stove. And I remember in the wintertime, like I guess before he'd go to bed in his mind
Starting point is 00:30:42 so he wouldn't have to get back up and fuck with it again he'd really load that stove up and we'd go to bed and then your boy would wake up at 2 a.m. and fucking white trash mordor in there just like fucking the gates of a hell dog like I remember I'd fucking open my window in my room and I was in the back of the trailer and I'd open my window and like laying
Starting point is 00:31:08 my whole torso out of it in the February cold, just like gasping for air because it was so fucking hot in there. But Thompson's house that he grew up in, it had a wood burning stove, and his mama was a hippie and shit and not a drunken lunatic. So she was better at everything. They were, they never really had that problem, as I recall. He had a wood burning stove. And they was it in a big room. It was a big open house. So it had more. area to spread out in. And they were always, they were real good at having it be the way you'd want it to be with the wood burning stove.
Starting point is 00:31:47 But yeah, they can, especially in a small area, yeah, man, they're hard to regulate. At my Graham and Grandpa who had it, my mom and Papa flow in RL, I remember if you were like, it's hot in here, RL would be like, well, go to the other room. Like that was the way you change the temperature was walk to the back of the house. And it did work. Yes. So we've got five fireplaces here at my house.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Thank you listeners for buying our book. And Amber keeps talking about how, I guess she went somewhere not long ago that they had their fireplace going and it really hit for her because fireplaces do hit. And Amber was talking about,
Starting point is 00:32:28 she's like, we need to, I think I'm going to start using our fucking fireplaces. And so I said all that to say this. I told her that before she starts doing that, I'm going to need her to fully make out her will and let me take out a decent life insurance policy. Because my wife is more like your stepdad. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:32:49 Also gypsy speedboat. She, like, dude, she has almost burnt the house down without having an open flame anywhere. So, you know, just, I'm just saying if that, if my house ever burns down, everybody can hear this right now, that's because my wife got drunk and left the fucking fireplace on, not because I did some Casey Affleck shit. Corey is absolutely planning to burn his house down. No, I love this house. So since he keeps sipping from it and reminded me of it,
Starting point is 00:33:21 which I'm glad of, because I didn't want to circle back to early. You're just like him, Trey. You just got to go back to the polar pop every few minutes. I just want to, like, I know it's fake sugar. you fuck with exclusively. And I know it's calorie-free. Well, first off, this is the- Three gallons of that shit.
Starting point is 00:33:44 It's not, though. It's not that, no, first off. First off, that ain't a gallon jug. First off, this is only, let me talk. First off, this is only 44 ounces. Put it by your head. Put it by your head. Put it by, look at this.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Trey thought that your head was a gallon. That's the size of your head. Exactly. Also, this is only 44 ounces. If you would ever let anyone fucking finish. It is only 44 ounces,
Starting point is 00:34:15 but the ice they have at those places is that good sonic ice. It's mostly ice. Because, like, I load it up with my drink. I pretty much suck that motherfucker dry by the time I get to the goddamn house. And then I'll just put, like, my water in it. You know, like for a couple hours,
Starting point is 00:34:33 I'll just, like, refill it. with water because the ice tray it stays colder longer right so i'll put like some water in it and stuff like that and then yeah about mid-afternoon i'll get me some more caffeine i'll go get me fucking diet dr pepper but i would say that like it's probably only 21 ounces of diet dr pepper every time because like dude it's packed full of fucking ice so 60 ounces of aspartame and caffeine a day if you go three times yeah well i mean i get an energy drink too Hell yeah. Your skin is burning because you're out of nutrients.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Yeah, it's that taurane fucking, no, dude, shit, dude, I get my goddamn nutrients. I mean, I just feel. He's doing the thing now. I get my goddamn nutrient. Yeah, nutrients, polar pop. I do. You're a fucking cartoon. Even when I'm trying to be on your team, you have an airbrush tuit.
Starting point is 00:35:33 you have an airbrush t-shirt and you're drinking out of a jug as big as your head and you go, I get my goddamn nutrients. I do get my goddamn nutrients. I eat fucking better than anyone in this goddamn chat. Is that, by the way, who's on your t-shirt? Joe Diffy, T-T-Gray got it for me. I thought it was. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:52 Hey, plug. Listen to Bubba shot the podcast. Bubbish out the podcast available on the well-red feed. Keep talking just a second. I'll be right back. Go ahead. Bubba shots a podcast available on the podcast. available on the well-read feed
Starting point is 00:36:04 and on Trey's YouTube. I keep thinking about making our own YouTube for it, but then I keep thinking, don't do that because, you know, it's working. No, not because I don't want to, it's working. I've already made it. I just, it's working. I just don't know if people will migrate.
Starting point is 00:36:19 We're getting about $8,000 a pop on Trey's feed, and I feel like if we transfer it, it won't work, but it might work. I think that eventually it will work. I'm doing it this week. follow Bubba shot the podcast on YouTube. It'll eventually work. The show's too goddamn good for it not to.
Starting point is 00:36:39 Dude, I've had so many people message me that are just like, man, you know, no offense, but I've been tired of your bullshit for a long time. But Bubba shot the podcast, oh my God, that's my jam. I feel like that's a little bit of hyperbole because if somebody had messaged you, I've been tired of your bullshit for a while.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Yeah. But this podcast is good, and you didn't send it to the group chat. I think I would stop being your friend. Yeah, no, I mean, it wasn't exactly that. But yeah, no. But I have had a lot of, a lot, a lot of people that are like, dude, like, the complete opposite.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Like, oh, man, you know, think you're funny. Think you guys are funny. But like, this is really, this is not. And if you don't know what it is, it's a 90s country music podcast. And we, and I host it like it's half game show, half history lesson. And if you say, I don't know if I like country music. Yeah, but this is nostalgia. This is about growing up in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:37:30 and a lot of people who don't like country music, like listen to it because it reminds them of their mom or their grandma or their stepdaddy who set the house on. Yeah. And I, literally. Yeah, that's another thing too is I've had a couple people that are like,
Starting point is 00:37:45 man, I'll be honest with you. I only gave it a shot because I like y'all, but I fucking hate 90s country music. And they're like, but what's great about this is I love the stories behind them and I don't actually have to listen to the song. So it's kind of birthday.
Starting point is 00:38:00 So I ran off because, and I'm out of breath because I'm fat and I'm fat and um because you ran off. Yeah, because I ran off. Since Corey wore that on here and you noticed it and brought it up, I thought I might as well do this because it's fucking February. Do you remember in Nashville when I told you all that I had ordered you Christmas presents and they arrived the day that I landed in Nashville? They were supposed to get there on time, but then they didn't.
Starting point is 00:38:29 Well, so that's Corey's, and this one is yours, Drew. Oh, dude. Man, Trey, I've been paying it in a men's league basketball league, and it's right by your house. I'm going to come get that one night after dropping about eight on somebody. Did you get one? So that's, so Corey's is Joe Diffy who dead. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Not everybody watches the podcast. Sorry. Yeah, yeah. Corries is Joe Diffy. You know, it's an airbrushed rest in peace shirt, but for Joe Diffy, and Drew's is Keith Whitley. who I've always thought kind of looks like Drew a little bit. Yeah, and I want to play with Bob.
Starting point is 00:39:04 And Corey's quote on the top says, beside the jukebox now, you know, and Drew says let you. And Drew says let yesterday go to the Keith Whitley lyric. And anyway, I've got that. Like I said, I ordered these, and they were supposed to be here before I left for Nashville, and they arrived in Burbank the day that I landed in Nashville.
Starting point is 00:39:28 So Corey got his when he came to California in January. And I keep meaning to like pack this and bring it to you, Drew, on the road, but then I just keep not doing it. I packed a T-shirt for DJ and spent 10 straight days with him and didn't give him the fucking T-shirt, didn't even see it. So you wouldn't have. I want to say how appropriate it is that they're both in-memorium shirts, Airbrush, perfect style.
Starting point is 00:39:51 They're both awesome. But Corey's is kind of fun and mine is kind of sad. I just couldn't think of a better... Every day of two? Yeah, but he's by the jukebox, son. He's got a song because he's a Cho. And Whitley has got sad songs, man. Right, yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Did you get yourself on dry? You know, I looked at various Keith Whitley lyrics and stuff, and I just couldn't find a better, like, a more appropriate one, you know. Drunk in Heaven would have been the only other one that would have worked, but that ain't a lyric. That's more of a lifestyle. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Hey, did you get yourself one, Trey? No, but I got it from the same guy that I got. I did get one of these. Send me your guy because we got to get one for you and for Tushar. Yeah. We got to get Tushar on, for sure. My guy is fucking awesome. He rules.
Starting point is 00:40:44 I've always been highly satisfied with my airbrush man's work. But we got to do M. Memorium, so Trey's got to pick a dead one. And since two stars has to be that, Tim's is going to say, dead to the Native Americans since 1993. But the way I found the guy was, for like a joke,
Starting point is 00:41:07 or just because I wanted to, after one of our shows, somebody took a picture of us, a fan, and we looked at the picture afterwards, and Drew looks like comically, Billish. And we were like, that's Corn dog. We started calling that. That's corn, starting calling that picture, Drew,
Starting point is 00:41:24 Corn Dog. And so I took that picture and found an airbrush guy and had him make a rest in peace corn dog shirt. And at the top it says hitting in our hearts. And it says rest in peace, corn dog. And I made up the day of, I think I made the date of death like January 4th, 2019 or something like that. Right before the insurrection. July 4th, 2009, like America's birthday, something like that. anyway, I just did it as like a joke.
Starting point is 00:41:56 And when the dude said it, he sent it to me and I opened it up and I was like, this is fucking awesome. Because like the dude, you don't give him, you don't like fully design it. You just send him a picture. Tell him what to say or you tell him like what words need to be. But the color scheme and all that shit, he comes up with himself. And I was blown away by that first airbrush t-shirt of corn dog I got. And I sent to do the message everything.
Starting point is 00:42:21 I was like, bro, this fucking rule. You really crushed this. And so then I decided to order these from the same guy for y'all. So you wore that on my birthday, right? That's the first time I saw it. Yeah, you know what? Matter of fact, I will try to find. Let me try to find it.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Yeah, we should plug him. I have now three airbrushed t-shirts. I've got Okra Boy, and then I got one for Andy for Christmas that says Okra Boy's bitch. And then I've got one in the same color scheme, which was a coincidence. from little Bubby Child who sold them as merch that just says purebred hoss cat. And I ordered a medium or a large and he accidentally sent me a double XL. And I thought that was so funny that I just kept it. And then now I got this one.
Starting point is 00:43:07 I'm getting an airbrush tattoo. Yeah, we're going to wear this motherfucker out. I promise you that. I'm getting corn dog tattooed on my body in an airbrush. You should. You should. I'm going to. Speaking of wearing him out, so I looked it up, it's, it's Ken Johnson Airbrush on
Starting point is 00:43:23 Etsy. So you know, Etsy and look up Ken Johnson Airbrush, holler at him, and give him free plug because he does fantastic work, in my opinion. Yeah, I'm about to wear that motherfucker out, because I got to get you one. I got to figure out the perfect dead country
Starting point is 00:43:39 singer for you. Yeah. Well, why about we just take another break real quick? Okay. I'm back and keep it right after this. Drew What can talk about that dad shit
Starting point is 00:43:57 You know Sure Let me Let me Don't do it on my My dad Yeah We're gonna go
Starting point is 00:44:03 Let's go And he'll be back In a minute Because again I've got to I don't have like Extra minutes So he'll let himself
Starting point is 00:44:11 Back in When he comes back So I've been thinking About How papas And Mammals On the internet That was a thing
Starting point is 00:44:19 When we were young Of course Like your grandma Would send you A foreword about how Obama was the devil. And they'd be like, if you, somebody who's look into this and he's just like,
Starting point is 00:44:29 well, Mammals and Pappos ought not be on the internet anyway. But our parents' generation have become the Mammals and Pappos of the internet, which in a lot of ways explains the Facebook election stuff and fake news and, you know, just the fact that they can be
Starting point is 00:44:46 manipulated or whatever. But a wild thing is watching them become fans of stuff on the internet. And it's, I'm thinking about it right now because it's new for my dad. He figured out YouTube about six months ago. First, it was doing stuff. Nope, did I frizz? A little bit. Yeah. First it was what? Only hunting stuff. Yeah. And then it became building stuff. Like there's these, dude, there's this family out of North Carolina that builds custom homes for rich people. and they're good old boys from the area
Starting point is 00:45:25 and I guess they just realize all these rich people are coming in we might as well make bank off of them rather than, you know, not. But like what dad is impressed with is like, I mean, the 12-year-old Drew he'll just be out there on a skid steer working seven hours.
Starting point is 00:45:39 It's like child abuse. That's what you're first by. It's unbelievable. Which is another thing he likes about the Amish is that the children work. But he has now moved into some pop culture. He brought up Jordan Peterson recently, surprised me.
Starting point is 00:45:57 And then yesterday we were talking about something, and we ended up, I was saying as an example of what he was talking about. I was like, well, there's a guy in my industry, Joe Rogan, and I found out my dad not just knows who Joe Rogan is, but like is aware, listens sometimes. And it freaked me out. Now, I will say I was made to feel better, but my dad's still my dad. He was basically like, I mean, yeah, I agree with a lot of what he says, but this dude's an entertainer. And anybody who thinks that he's not as full of shit as he is. You know, it's basically what he said.
Starting point is 00:46:26 Like, this guy gets paid to have opinions, but if somebody paid him more money, he'd change his opinion. And if he says otherwise, he's a liar. Pure liar. That's what he called him. But it is,
Starting point is 00:46:36 what I want to talk about is just like how our parents are becoming the memos and pap balls of the internet. That won't ever stop, will it. Like, no, soon will be a papal of the internet,
Starting point is 00:46:48 not understanding. I think, like, I've thought about this a lot, and I've had conversations about this with some people. And it's like, that's pretty much what, like, my whole life is just trying every day to not fall closer and closer to becoming a pap walk. Because, like, if you don't watch it, it happens earlier than you think. You know what I mean? Like, you have to, like, every day you have to put something through a filter of like, is this really what you believe?
Starting point is 00:47:20 or are you just too lazy to try to understand this new thing? You know what I mean? I weirdly look forward to being able to give up. But when you give up, when you give up, you have to get off the internet. You have to realize I'm quitting the world and that means I quit. If I'm going to engage with the world, then I have to engage with it. I just realized another plug, into the Abisket, me and DJ Lewis's podcast. There's an episode and it's called Put Papal on the porch.
Starting point is 00:47:50 or keep pap on the porch. Where we got into this, but from a different angle. We talked about this exact thing about how, like, we always say it's mammals on the internet, and we imagine people at Hardee's, but, like, it's women with Karen haircuts. But anyway, what we basically talked about, and I almost turned it into a bit, is like,
Starting point is 00:48:07 you need to be put out on the porch. At some point, it's porch time. And instead of not looking forward to that, embrace it. Embrace the fact that you don't have to grow anymore, but keep it to yourself. I'm sort of doing that bit right now, but instead of porch, it's shed. And it's, you know, a lot of it is me talking to these old dudes about, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:28 oh, they're going to cancel me and they're going to cancel me. And my thing is like, first off, people have to be subscribed in order to cancel. And like if you just, it's kind of like what you're saying right now, it's like, just keep doing the things that you're doing. If you're at your house, if you're on the farm, if you're in the field, nobody cares. But yeah, once, if you come to the internet, that's the world. So you can't say those things. But, like, as far as just like hanging out with your buddies,
Starting point is 00:48:53 fucking, dude, you can let it rip at Hardee's still. You know what? That's what me and DJ said. That's what me DJ's talking about. Go back to Hardee's. Make Hardee's great again. Get the fuck off the internet and go to Hardys. Go to the VFW.
Starting point is 00:49:07 You have safe spaces. No one's going to cancel you at the VFW. I don't think they can. Your membership is you killed somebody in another country. Yeah, dude. That's perfect. But yeah, you're right, man. Like, if you truly do give up, it's like, well, you know, if you truly give up,
Starting point is 00:49:23 you'll never even hear from those people because they gave up. They're just in their cabin. They're whatever. But like, yeah, if you log into Twitter, you're stamping your fucking passport to society. And like, there's some shit that goes with that. We got rules, man. What about you, Trey? Your mom ever embarrass you on the Internet?
Starting point is 00:49:42 No, just real life forever. No. No, she'd be on the Internet, too, I reckon. I don't, you know, like I've paid to send me screenshots and shit of her being deep in the comments, whiling on people or something. But it's always like, it's always her, like, coming to my defense or something in a real rednecky way. She ain't, uh, she's not doing like the type of shit y'all are talking about doing. And Uncle Tim is the same type of way, like as she is.
Starting point is 00:50:11 I mean, like, he can be sort of, you know, embarrassing on the internet, but not in the way you're talking about. And it's hard for me to say, because my, you know, my dad died in 2013 before three years, he would never in a million years have believed you if you told him that Donald Trump would be the president in three short ears, right? At that time, there's no fucking way. And even back then, like, you know, he voted for Obama and shit. And even back then I remember. And I don't even know what the things would have been. I guess Obama being like a Muslim or something were the subjects, I guess.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Because I remember my dad. It's how about saying it's hard for me to even remember what the papals were fucking. on about. Because they had not on the internet yet. But yeah, but it was Obama being Kenyon and all that stuff, I guess. And you can make a million dollars if you just reply to this Nigerian prince.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Right. Well, I can remember my dad, and done of this was on the internet. I can remember my dad just, he was getting really fed up with living in Salina even then in 2012 and 2013 just because he was like,
Starting point is 00:51:13 these people around here don't know a goddamn thing. He's like, I can't hardly talk to them no more. It is wild. And again, that's four years before they even came close to sniffing the level they're at now. But as far as the internet goes, my dad was like, my dad loved fucking movies and music. And, like, you know, we was white trash and didn't have nothing except a surround sound system, like that Foxworthy bit. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:43 So he fucked with all that. but he didn't fuck with the internet at all he and like it was like a thing for all purpose like yes like he was like way to not fuck with he went out of his way to not he never had an email address he never he got a cell phone my sister like made him get a like track phone in the like six months before he died or something and he never really even hardly used it and he never got and i'm not saying he never would have but he never had any real interested in none of that type of shit and I think even if he was fucking with the internet
Starting point is 00:52:17 now I'm pretty sure he would just be doing the same type of shit and Uncle Tim and Mama are doing IE yeah embarrassing me now just in the way that yeah right not in any kind I do not think my dad would be fucking with Jordan Peterson
Starting point is 00:52:33 I'd be very stunned by that development okay and I've been stunned by it because yeah well I would say that my dad I would say that my dad I mean no sometimes they die, but yeah. I would say that my dad... But yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:52:48 If they don't die, I can change. I wanted to make a joke a minute ago. Harvey did. That's what I'm saying. Harvey did. Am I muted? What has happened?
Starting point is 00:52:57 I wanted to make a joke. I wanted to make a joke a minute ago about a... He got fed up with living in Salina. I was like, yeah, real fun of it. So he just said, fuck it. I would argue that in 2012, our dad side by side, my dad would seem less likely to end up with it
Starting point is 00:53:15 because my dad didn't have any of the things you were talking about and also was like a crumudgeon about culture in general. Like your dad still had movies and music he was fucking with. You know what I mean? Like he would, I'm sure if you send him new movies, he would watch them or new music. Like my dad literally hasn't listened to anything
Starting point is 00:53:33 but gospel music and Leonard Skinner since like 1982. It started with... He had to get a smartphone for work at the end before he retired. He fought it. He nearly got fired because he was like, I'm not doing my time this way. They got him a computer, and he started doing it that way. And then mom made him get a phone to make it easier with the app. Then he found out you could watch hunting stuff on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:54:00 And then that was hunting's a gateway drug to racism. I mean, look, everyone listening to our podcast right now wants to believe that anyway. So he discovered these things. But another thing that's curious about this whole thing, Cuban on the election, you know, Joe Rogan platforming this guy or that guy is, I think a lot of liberals, including our fans listening right now,
Starting point is 00:54:23 want to pretend that there's nothing appealing about a thing like Joe Rogan or Barstool Sports. As if millions of millions of people are wrong, or if there's no entertainment going on. Whoa, that's a thing. Yeah, people love to throw. a package at my door. That's the thing that people love to fucking do,
Starting point is 00:54:44 and I don't think it helps any goddamn body in the whole world. Like, like when the Louis C.K. shit happened or whatever. Obviously, awful shit to have happened. But I saw so many people that were like, well, I mean, it's not like he's funny anyways,
Starting point is 00:54:59 or it's like da-da-da-da-da-da. And it's like, get the fuck out. You're not helping. You're not helping. Hey, yes, he was. Yes, he fucking absolutely. There's thousands of rapes every year. This is the one we're talking.
Starting point is 00:55:10 about precisely because he's funny. Because he's funny. The other 999 aren't funny. Yeah, right. And like, Rogan, like, fucking, you can be annoyed by him or whatever, but you cannot sit there and go, he's not even good at podcasting. He's not even fucking good. It's like the guy literally changed the game.
Starting point is 00:55:28 Like him and Marin are the two guys who, like, there weren't even podcasts and they had them. And then, like, Joe Rogan literally changed the game. It doesn't help anything to be like, what, because I don't know what I don't know what I'm really trying to get out here. But it's like, can you not admit that terrible people can have talent? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:55:48 Like, what are you doing here? I think you do yourself and whatever your goal is, a disservice by doing that too, because you seem disingenuous. And if you're a papal, and you have a very limited amount of information and a narrow lens you're viewing this through. And here's a guy in your mind
Starting point is 00:56:05 who's like interviewing people you're interested in and like has these clips that you think or funny. And then here's a person on the other side going, saying things that just aren't true, you're like, man, one of these looks more reasonable than the other. And that's not true overall, but in that finite lens, it seems
Starting point is 00:56:22 that way. I used to, I just don't think that, I don't know, I used to be an apologist for Joe Rogan's. Hell, I listen to it, not all the time, and I wouldn't listen to fucking four-hour podcast episodes, but I listen to a lot of clips and stuff when he would have, like, comics on that I liked and shit like that.
Starting point is 00:56:38 A good guest, John, yeah. For people act like, but I used to always I never really had a problem with the platforming thing personally even when that would come up because again I would be like dude if you listen to the Alex Jones episode it's fucking hilarious because of how insane he is if anybody's listening to that
Starting point is 00:56:53 and truly going like this guy's making some good points they're fucking too far gone anyway right right like I'm not worried about that that guy's a fucking maniac it could have served the opposite where a lot of people were like I've heard this Alex Jones guy's crazy but who knows and then they hear him on Rogan and go
Starting point is 00:57:10 God damn, he is crazy. He's crazy. Right. So I never had much of a problem with all that, frankly. And also, and people don't believe me, they can fucking go look this up right now, right, at the very beginning of the pandemic, right, at the very beginning. Rogan brought on this epidemiologist, right, who laid out everything that was about to happen. And it wasn't misinformation.
Starting point is 00:57:35 It was like the first place that a lot of people got genuinely good information about the coming pandemic and it was really well done. I remember I listened to that. It freaked me the fuck out, right? But in the two years since then, COVID, just like it has with so many people, COVID and Texas, what are you going to do? Like, that shit has worked the way that Joe Rogan operates, in my opinion. And the doctors and shit he brings on now, it's not the same thing.
Starting point is 00:58:07 It does seem biased. He does have an agenda. And apparently that epidemiologist I'm talking about has reportedly said on his own that he has tried to go back on the show to sort of counter some of this misinformation shit and that they won't have him. I don't know if that's true, but that doctor said that. And so I'm saying it's like that almost has to be true. Because if you say that publicly and it's not true, then Rogan goes, that's not true. Just come on. Right.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Right. So anyway, I'm just saying for a long time, I thought a lot of that talks. about Joe Rogamara and province stuff was overblown and I was like we should have more trusted people to make their own fucking decisions about what people say like for fuck's sake like he really does put people on from both sides he's not just saying that he really does but COVID changed a lot of that shit in my opinion and what and it's like a lot of that misinformation type stuff and all that is is very valid and it ain't the same thing and it ain't cool you know so because and this is what this is what rich people do
Starting point is 00:59:09 who are liberal, but then something comes up. This is what white people do who try to be progressive, but something comes up because the pandemic mandates were affecting the things that meant the most to Joe Rogan, being able to go out and do comedy and travel the world, et cetera, get the fuck away from his family. I know that's a part of it for him. Like, he couldn't do that anymore.
Starting point is 00:59:33 And now he has a contrarian point to make, and I don't even think that's conscious. And the reason I don't think it's conscious is every human does it, almost every human, every group does it. Again, white people aren't racist until you try to talk about an aspect of their life that is benefiting from white supremacy. And then suddenly they want to give you some pushback here, there. Rich people who are liberal are very progressive and they have very progressive ideas until you want to put a homeless shelter close to where their kid goes to school or even low-income housing. We don't even say homeless shelter. You could just say poor people close to where their kid goes to school.
Starting point is 01:00:08 property values, dangerous crimes, all that stuff. So that's what's happening. You are spitting. You are spitting. Wrap up without me, please. As I told you all before we started. You got to go. We'll go ahead and wrap up by saying, hey, if you can't, if you just can't get enough for
Starting point is 01:00:24 Trey, go to patreon.com slash Trey Crowder. It's where he's doing a lot of things over there, extra bonus things. You can subscribe. I would also like you to check out my buddies, Drew Morgan and DJ DJ Lewis. over into the abisket, as was mentioned. Please also listen to our sister, sister podcast, our sister, our sister fucking podcast. If sister sister's sister wants to come on,
Starting point is 01:00:49 Bubba shot the podcast, we'll do that today. We are going to have some more special guests coming up. I'm excited about that. Bubba shot the podcast, 90s country music, but really nostalgia for millennials. Yeah, it's great. So, yeah, it's on the well-read feed, but you can get into the Abisket on its own thing.
Starting point is 01:01:08 And hey, also, if you're into my stupid shit, you can go to Corey Wrights for You.com. Each week, I do a thing called This Week in Southern History. For February, it's been, as you can imagine, because I pander, it's been black history. But I also do other things, too. Like yesterday, I wrote a thing called Butterfinger Beebees in the decline of Western civilization. So it's a lot of different stuff. I'm having fun over there. So check out all of our stuff.
Starting point is 01:01:33 Thank you for listening to the Well Red podcast. Like, subscribe, tell all your friends, and leave us a review. you, it really helps move us up in the ranks. Drew, parting thoughts. Butterfinger Bebe's in the decline of Western civilization sounds riveting and delicious. Both of those things. My parting thought is that papaws are going to papaw. Yep.
Starting point is 01:01:56 And what we need to be focused on is how to improve people's lives. And I don't think picking Joe Rogan or Neil Young, in a fight about vaccines, and then publicly espousing that pick. And then the next day, Neil Young announces all his music's on Amazon. Right. I saw that. When that happened, I was like, okay. I mean...
Starting point is 01:02:22 It was a commercial. It's all a commercial now. Yeah. And I'm not saying don't pick your teams. I'm not saying don't have your opinions. I'm saying that if you're actually trying to do good in the world, think about how to change people's lives. You know, what can we do to do that?
Starting point is 01:02:36 If you're not trying to do good in the world, that's also fine. Entertainment is fine. I'm in entertainment. Very few of my jokes are actually about improving anyone's life. They're just about what I think is funny. That's very much okay. Don't pretend that's what we're doing, though, in my opinion. That's my parting thought for today.
Starting point is 01:02:51 I could not agree more. I'll piggyback on that by saying. I thought you were, what was that? Do you just drop Skittles? No, I had unscrewed his mic from the base to hold it, and now I'm trying to screw it back in, and then I think I just lost everything. Oh, well, I thought you were applauding.
Starting point is 01:03:08 But yeah, I would like to piggyback on that with my parting thought by saying, yeah, I write a lot of things and we do a lot of things and make videos, and people will say like, oh, you guys are changing the world or you're really helped. Here's what I think. I'm an entertainer, and I enjoy using my point of view to entertain, but that's pretty much it. So thank you for being entertained by us. We love you. We'll see you next week.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Thank you all for listening to the Well, Red. show we love to stick around longer but we got to go tune in next week if you got nothing to do thank you god bless you from corey and drew bye bye be
