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, you like had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's just like you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now. Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people. People across the ske universe, I should say. Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year?
Starting point is 00:00:41 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.
Starting point is 00:01:00 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
Starting point is 00:01:37 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,
Starting point is 00:02:02 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.
Starting point is 00:02:23 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.
Starting point is 00:02:37 But then I quit using it and was still paying for it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them. They help. If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money. Go to RocketMoney.
Starting point is 00:02:55 dot com slash well read today that's rocketmoney.com slash well r e d rocketmoney.com slash well read and we thank them for sponsoring this episode of the podcast. They're the liberal rednecks they like cornbread but sex they care way too much but don't give a fun. They're the liberal rednecks that makes some people people upset, but they got three big old dicks that you can suck. We're going now, buddy. What's the thing that you have the most insatiable crave for, like, to me, I just gargled down that salmon.
Starting point is 00:03:41 And for me, like, when I get in the mood for salmon, there's nothing else that I can have. Okay. Do you know what I mean? Keep in mind, we're going to be talking about bands and drugs a little bit later. I just read. But, okay, he says, bro, I was going to say, but you don't. Donuts.
Starting point is 00:03:56 You have that thing, but it cycles through. Am I wrong? Yes, that's true. I'm a cyclical. Like, don't you always have something in your head that, like, you can't resist? Yes. But that item changes per month. Accurate.
Starting point is 00:04:06 One month, it's pancakes. Yes. The next month is steak. Well, pancakes kind of stays. Bread. Donuts. Sweet bread. I don't.
Starting point is 00:04:13 Wet bread. Creamy donut. This isn't exactly what you were saying, but like the one thing that I literally cannot have in my house. Chips. Because I will eat it is specifically. ruffles or wavy lays and the French onion dip. Okay. That's how I am with no-cho cheese Doritos.
Starting point is 00:04:31 I mean, honestly, any chips, I'm going to hit them. But like that, I don't. I cannot defy that. I don't mean the thing that you, if it's in your house, you're going to eat all of it. What I mean is the thing that if you get a craving for that, you can't settle for another thing. No, I don't know. I don't have that. Because for me, if I get into mood.
Starting point is 00:04:53 I'm like real drunk and I'm like, I won't talk. Oh, bell. Yeah, right. But, like, most things, it's like, if I want a burger and my wife is like, I'd rather have pizza, I'm like, I can go for pizza. Yeah. But if in my mind, I get, I want salmon and avocado, that's it. That, that, nothing else will, I can't put anything else in my body.
Starting point is 00:05:13 I don't have that. Do you have that? Sometimes with Krispy Kreme Donuts. Oh, yeah, I get that. You are such a white lady. Yeah, I know, right? Yeah. No, I mean, I, dude, I have cravings, but not.
Starting point is 00:05:25 like insatiable to the point I feel like you're describing. I mean I've never tried to not. Yeah, I feel like I could not go get a donut. I mean, I put it just that I just with Katie and the two boys weren't and they're picky. Yeah. I've put it off a bunch of times.
Starting point is 00:05:38 Speaking of, can I just a little bit behind the curtain here. We got an email. Uh-oh. With a new offer from an old sponsor. And the offer was that one of us would try out children's beds and Corey responded immediately I got a newborn
Starting point is 00:05:58 that hits for me when the email specifically said anyone with kids between three and 12 yes and you know why I said that because you got the free bed last time it's not me that I'm
Starting point is 00:06:07 yeah I guess I mean it said between three and 12 I literally just saw three I literally just saw because I wouldn't have done that I literally saw three murdered me dude fucking murder
Starting point is 00:06:22 And murder. He got beds. No, listen, I need to respond to that anyway because, like, I cannot take just one hitting bed. Yeah, of course. I got to be like, y'all are either sending me two or you're sending me none because I can't, that is never going to fly. So I'm about to get this bed. Yeah. And by the way.
Starting point is 00:06:38 No, when you said it, I didn't even notice the 3 to 12. I didn't either. I saw three. I just saw an email asking about beds and I saw that you said that. And I, but as soon as I saw the. Am I wrong? As soon as I saw the thing about beds. I bet they have different options.
Starting point is 00:06:51 I thought this. I immediately thought, like, well, I can't do that. I'm going to have to have two of them or I can't do it. Right. In my mind. They have options is what it is. And they don't have cribs. You don't have a bed until you're three, right?
Starting point is 00:07:04 I just saw, do you have kids three? And I was like, nope, nobody has that. But I'm the closest to having that. So I want this shit. Because to me, if I saw three to 12, I'd be like, that's a wild range. I saw it. And it's not. It destroyed me.
Starting point is 00:07:21 I still want it. not a wild range. For the record, zero to three. Do any of you have kids between three and twelve? I'll take the bed. I don't, but I'll take it.
Starting point is 00:07:33 Baby to Toddler. But you understand where my brain was. In my mind, it said, do you have kids within three? I saw three and I was like, he don't have three-year-olds. His kids are old. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Again, dude, I immediately didn't want it for reasons I've already said, but you're like, that's a weird, it's not at all. zero to three is baby slash toddler right and then three to twelve that's like kid and then 12 plus that's like a teenager well see I don't know so I know you'll learn though yeah I know three to 12 is don't that makes perfect sense but yeah no I can't know people are thinking I get walked all over
Starting point is 00:08:08 right now but like I just can't uh I got two boys and if I'm like hey your brother's bed hits you still got that old shitty bed or if I'm like hey try this fucking bed right he's like this bed don't hit. And then the other one's like, my bed does hit. Well, like, it's just fucking brothers. I don't want to lose my bed here, but you could just make them trade off on the bed. You know what I mean? Like some days you get this bed, some days you get this bed. Dude, you could also make these people give you two beds. No, I know they won't fucking do that. Corrne needs this bed, dog. Now, I, you're right though. Because they only gave you one bed. Like, we all wanted that free fucking bed. And they were like, we can give one. And Tray was like,
Starting point is 00:08:51 I done got a bed and I done got a bed. So we're like, Drew can get the bed, right? Yeah. So, like, they ain't giving you two beds. I mean, for the record, y'all are sponsoring us. Give us two fucking beds. When we're off Mike, I'm going to make you real mad about that. I'm pretty sure on the last podcast.
Starting point is 00:09:07 Make me mad? I think I know what he's going to say, but yeah, he can't talk about it right now. But on the last podcast, I'm pretty sure is when we did the ad for this company. It's like, you know, making it pretty obvious who we're talking about. Listen, they're giving a free bed out. God damn it, that's fine. It's good. We might be doing an ad for them in this show.
Starting point is 00:09:25 We have no idea. We might be. We're in the past right now. We are in the past. And by the time you hear the ad we recorded, we might have already gotten the bed. Mm-hmm. And tried it out. I doubt it.
Starting point is 00:09:35 I gave the teaser last week. I want to talk about this, but also we're, I'm not kidding. You know, we talked about lawyers and divorce and shit all throughout the whole last episode. The reason that, or the main thing I wanted to get to is something I never got to. and it's ridiculous that I ever wanted to get to it. We were talking about Mystical, the rapper. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:55 And all I was going to say is how fucking great and hilarious is it how obvious it is how obvious it is that he was going through a divorce on his move bitch feature? He's on fucking move, bitch, get out the way and he's got a feature. Yeah. And the second half of the feature is just like, who bought the fucking TVs and a jury, bitch? Tell me that. I ain't better. I don't give a fuck. But I'm going to tell you like this bitch, you best.
Starting point is 00:10:24 Now walking from my tool bus. Yeah. But yeah. I've never thought about it like that. And he's like trying to get my baby. Child support suing me. You know, like fucking the whole second half, it's like so. Mystical's going through some shit right now.
Starting point is 00:10:36 It's also so, it's so middle age. Okay. Yeah, right. And that's so funny to think about what that song was in the club. Because I never. Yeah, right. No, me either. And also I got hype at those lines.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Dude, tell me that. But now. But now. 37 or whatever, you're like, man, I hope he had a good lawyer. Dude, you know what? How do you think Ludacris responded to it? It's like, probably what happened was, like, how features used to happen is like, I got this thing and like, here's the beat.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Do you want to rap on it? Yeah, you send it to them. So often when you hear features, it doesn't match what the rest of the song is. It's clearly just the rapper being like, I got the beat, I'm going to do my thing. Well, you give him the hook. Yeah, right. But like, I'm sure that Ludacris sent him that had no earthly fucking eye. idea and then it got sent back to ludicrous and you know that he was just like oh my god my man
Starting point is 00:11:26 are you okay mystical tell me what that bitch did mystical i wonder if he was like hey she do need to move yeah she do matter of fact this song's about her how about that mrcicle's like i could channel my own bitch through this song i think about that bitch and i'm like god damn she need to move that song it's hard to go harder for me well that's what I was going to say I wonder if he was a little not disappointed but like okay mystical we're going to do this track about uh fighting in the club
Starting point is 00:12:05 yeah going to your trunk to get your gun yeah divorce it was not personal until this moment it was about the it was about the royal bitches yes you know what I mean we meant the royal bid you have made it about a singular bitch yes you've identified the bitch in question. Yeah. And Chris Rock had that bit about that song too. Yeah. There was a bitch.
Starting point is 00:12:27 Defending rap, you know? And he's like, you used to be able to defend rap. I don't know, which is funny because that was in like 2005 or whatever. But yeah, he's talking about that song. And he's like, well, as you can see, there was a bitch in his way. And he required her to move. Hence, move bitch, get out to way. That was the same bit.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Chris Rock would have been a good. smack him in the dick, smack him in the dick. He ain't talking about me. Blind the bitch. Blind the bitch. Something about the act of reaching for the wallet sends a signal to the pussy to just dry up. Something about it. So, all right.
Starting point is 00:13:11 So last week, and here's why I wanted to say it, because I was listening to Guns and Roses, and I thought to myself, imagine being twacked on cocaine at the Vipar Room in 1986, 1987, whatever, and seeing guns and roses. And I was like, I can't imagine how hard that would hit. So hard. That would hit.
Starting point is 00:13:34 That would hit at an unbelievable level, like a level that I've never hit. No, we've never. When it comes to live music or whatever, and that made me want to ask the question. Again, you can either answer, this is what I did, or you can also answer, this is what I would like to do. Can I do both? Any drug, absolutely, any drug from booze on up to Heron, any venue that's setting, town, whatever, and any band.
Starting point is 00:14:03 Okay. I'm going to go with the thing I did first while I think about the thing I want to do. The thing I did was the first time I took Ecstasy, I saw candlebox. I know the story. fingered my first butthole. Yeah, that's hard to talk. I mean, it is pretty good, dude.
Starting point is 00:14:21 So we should have let him go last. Well, no, that's the thing that I did. We're going to get into fantasies now about what we want to do because I think I got mine, but y'all go ahead. Well, hold on. Mine's is. I think some good context is. I want to do exercise and go to candlebox and finger a butthole for the first
Starting point is 00:14:38 hit. She's a lesbian now. Keep in mind, Corey's 35, 36, whatever. So, like, what year was this? 2000, something? Oh, yeah, like probably 2000. So it was like late stage, 2007.
Starting point is 00:14:52 Yeah, oh yeah. Oh, they were coming down. Right. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Not you, baby. You were on your way up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:58 That's for sure. Yeah. Two ships in the night, baby. You and Candlebox. I don't want to, like, he'd be fine with it. I'm sure. We probably talked about it on here before. But our old, our old would be showrunner, Andrew.
Starting point is 00:15:12 one day we were having lunch with them and he started talking about one of his best friends was the lead singer of Candlebox or one of the main guys from Candlebox and I told that story. I was like dude did y'all meet in a man the 90s right Facebook group or something?
Starting point is 00:15:31 It is wild that they're all forgot about that like that's on my- Andrew if you ever hear this you know I said that to you in person so you can't be mad at me. That is such an example of like you just think that all the people from that era know each other.
Starting point is 00:15:44 Right. It's like, yeah, of course the showrunner of friends knew the lead singer of Candlebox. It's like when a person from a small town meets a black guy and they're like, you know, you know Jamal? Yeah, right. That's a Neil Brennan bit. And he did. He did know Jamal.
Starting point is 00:15:57 He's like, oh, Jamal, you must be Neil. Anyway, we've been doing a lot of other people's bits on this podcast. I love it. So we quote comedians the way people who aren't funny do Anchor Man. Yeah. And, um, and, um, and boring. I have a borat quote and joke now. Do he?
Starting point is 00:16:16 He just sent us a text that said, My wife. Yeah, I've been saying. I do that a lot when somebody does a very my wife thing. I've been doing the joke about Andy being bisexual. And at the very end I go, I'd just say something like, but I did get a bit out of it. I just walk around the house going,
Starting point is 00:16:31 my wife. Nice. See, that's fine. All right. So. The guy literally went, Dunch, tonight. That guy's the funniest dude at our show.
Starting point is 00:16:46 Yep. Low bar. What you got, Drew? Okay. Here's what I got. All right, thing that I wish I could do in the past, Monterey Pop Festival, if you make me pick an act, I'm going to go with Hendrix. Not The Who or Joplin or Otis Redding, but I'd like to see the whole festival, and I'd like to be on acid. Maybe like some quailudes and all the cool stuff they had back then thrown in there and a couple beers, but acid.
Starting point is 00:17:12 at the Monterey Popple. I got Lourge is a great answer. The one I want to do that I can still potentially pull off is I'd like to see Cage the Elephant at any outdoor show during the day, drunk and on decent cocaine. Well, until you got to the decent cocaine, I was like, I've done that. And I bet it ruled and I didn't get it to do it. It rolled.
Starting point is 00:17:32 That's the top of my, like, active bands that I ain't seen that I want to see. That was actually the first time I saw them. I only knew like two of their songs and I saw them at the other 10. at like 1 p.m. on Sunday. Yeah. You know, fucked up on weed and booze or whatever. And that mother,
Starting point is 00:17:50 and I've since seen him like two or three other times, but that motherfucker, the front man, the cage of the elephant. Yeah, they go hard. Wild, dude. He was literally climbing up the fucking speaker towers and shit,
Starting point is 00:18:01 staying at the very top, jumping in the crowd and stuff, not from up there, but from lower. And it was fucking, it was gnarly. Yeah. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:18:09 these are my fuckers. They're from Bowlinger and Kentucky right up to row from my house. hometown and then yeah and they rule and they moved to england because it hit more for them um get that you want mine all right well hold on i need to you because i thought we were doing what we wanted and then what we had both let you know all okay go ahead yeah no no no do your thing no no no he's right we're rotating 1974 in field i didn't even say time period but you guys are hitting i have to i have no no no no the time period's huge for me the band that's the band i didn't say it but i should have
Starting point is 00:18:38 the band that i'm going to pick that has to be a qualifier no i know and like i'm sorry i'm saying I dig that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't even think about time frame. I didn't even think about like juke joints and like, sorry. 1974, in field of Talladega, meth, Skinner. Hell yeah. Dude, can it hit harder than that?
Starting point is 00:19:00 I don't think it can. I think scientists have proven. It can be cannot hit harder. I've ever told you all about just like sometimes I'll just ask my dad about Skinner's shows and every single story he got in a fight? Of course. Well, yeah. Because you're on math watching Skinnered, like, why wouldn't you?
Starting point is 00:19:16 The only time my dad did uppers was so he could drink more. That is a direct quote. Back then it wasn't, it was always math, but back then they had like pills. The black beauties. The black beauties. Yeah, and I just took them so I could drink more beer. Well, dude, I mean, that's where I mean, like when we, like, so many of the amphetamines that I've taken have been so that I could stay up at shows and drink more beer.
Starting point is 00:19:38 Like, that was the main thing for it. Drinking beer and listening to rock and roll is sensitive. I'm severely one of my three or four most favorite things. And you want to do it for 10 hours. So take a fucking Adderall and you're like, which is meth. Like, dude, listen, I know meth gets a lot of shit as it should. But as someone who has done meth, I'm not telling you to do meth. I'm just saying if a genie came to you and said, hey, listen.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Or a doctor. Or a doctor. With an Adderall script. Hey, I have this meth for you to do. And I promise you it won't kill you. You can do it one time. 100%. do that shit.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Meth was the most fun fucking time I've ever had. Just take Adderall. Well, yeah, definitely just take Adderall. I was about to say, well, definitely now just take Adderall. But, dude, you know meth hits harder. Surely you've taken an Adderall before. Yes, but you know that pure meth hits harder than Adderall. It's the same idea, but meth fucking skyrocket.
Starting point is 00:20:34 Yeah. But yes, be safe. I give you a good example of one that I've done just because of who the artist is and I wouldn't have thought this. well actually it makes total sense but not my type of thing at all generally but molly pretty lights at bonneroo at 3 a.m. and it was fucking incredible bro it was I said Molly it was actually that legal shit I've told you all before that was the legal equivalent of Molly before they outlawed the hits
Starting point is 00:21:05 molly's plant food or whatever yeah dude it was which was better it is it was genuinely better The shit that... Was it just M-D-A? The shit that I... It was... The actual scientific thing was M-C-C-A-T, so I wanted to call it purr. The M-C-C-A-T? And that what you got to take to get in the med school?
Starting point is 00:21:24 It was M-C-A-T. That's how I got in the med-schools taking it, am I right? But anyway, yeah, no, I've had shit that... As your bit goes through, it was probably just meth, but I've had shit that people told me was Molly. And... But compared to that shit, which for a brief, like, Sun's... spoken moment in time you could buy it to gas station uh it was better so that's your is that one of them or is that your favorite experience because i'm i'm remembering like three or four amazing concert
Starting point is 00:21:55 experience drug location combos drew was actually there for my best one i got candle buck he was there for one of mine too are you in bj bar him no we it was the year it was the year my dad died which by the way because i don't want to hang up on sad shit hell yeah brother Hang up on saying shit. Mine is shrooms, my morning jacket with my dad. Nice. So, but that year. Oh, man, that's why I said.
Starting point is 00:22:21 I didn't want to get hung up on it. But that year, then my dad died and we went to Bonaroo. Saturday of that Bonaroo. Saturday. Saturday. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Two, three p.m.
Starting point is 00:22:31 I'm about to do the Chappelle bit fucking cheeseburgers, man. But like that Saturday, like 2 p.m., I had been drinking beer all day. I took a. head of the like liquid dragon they had weed tincture your boy outside i took it i took two uh pills would it would i don't i can't remember which like percissette yeah it was something like two at o's two atos hit the weed tincture was drinking beer the whole time went uh and ate like not enough shrooms to really do anything but like with the cocktail it's going on plenty enough went to the concert.
Starting point is 00:23:11 We smoked a blunt with Bain right before I started and then watched Portugal the man. I bet it hit, on the witch stage at Bonaroo. And A, it was fucking incredible. But P, I reached a point because I was on everything. I was like in the stratosphere. And I started to almost freak out.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And right when I was about to freak out, the mushroom saved you. Right when I was about to freak out, this dude walked through right in front of us with a double-ended black dildo. like an 18 inch, but he was like, bo,
Starting point is 00:23:42 bo, just like, and it's flopping all over his face and all this shit, whatever, and I died laughing. You were like, life's not serious. That guy saved my life.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Exactly. Life's not serious. That's exactly what happened. I tried to write a bit about that guy. I'm not kidding. Thank God for that guy. Like, that guy will never know how much.
Starting point is 00:23:59 The good he did that day. He does. He does. Because I tried to, I ended up trying to, yeah, we've talked about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:05 You talked about it. Yeah. Talk about it. That dude rolled. We've definitely talked about it. It was huge. I remember it being dark brown, which is somehow funnier. I said what I say.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Black, I thought. Well, I mean, I meant it's funny. Oh, yeah, yeah. I meant like belonging to a black man. Yeah, not like Vanta black dildos, too. So that's why, my fault. Another one, no, it was brown. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:27 I'll never forget it. Dude, I've seen Portugal. It was the dick of a black man. I've seen Portugal the man two times since. They're great. That was definitely probably my best one, but they're great, man. I said that candle box, ecstasy, finger in the butt hole was my best, but that actually isn't true because I was a kid then when everything was good.
Starting point is 00:24:48 If I have to give the true best one, it should be the one when I was an adult and I thought everything was bad. And then I got reminded that everything was good. And that would be the first time I ever did mushrooms. So, Ziploc bag full of mushrooms. I gave you so many mushrooms. Ziplock bag full of mushrooms. 12 Coors Lites, Pearl Jam, Bonaroo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:14 The, how happy was I, dude? He was mad at me for how happy I was. He was like fucking in the floor going, this fucking piece of shit, I thought he was going to have a moment. He's happy. Mother fucking loving Pearl Jam. Look at him.
Starting point is 00:25:29 That was you. Yeah, I believe that. Sure. So, we got real fucked up. That was a beautiful concert. It was also beautiful. We hugged. I got lost.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Yeah. Because of drugs. And like we were, I'm not exaggerating 40 feet from each other. In a field, but at the back. Not in a crowd. With Zach Gast, our buddy. Not in a crowd. By the food.
Starting point is 00:25:56 And I had laid down and gotten lost. And I woke up. And Corey goes, he's trying to like explain to me where he's at by describing people around him. And there's a boy with a balloon. and I just said, I'm the boy. And I looked up and we made eye contact and Corey goes, I'm the balloon. And then we ran into each other's arms. Dude, it was fucking awesome.
Starting point is 00:26:19 That's a great. Dude, it would be like that. And also. Not even in my top five, though. I'm kidding. Sure. I'm kidding. It is. Well, to me, like, obviously it was because it was my first time doing mushrooms.
Starting point is 00:26:30 And you had told me how much you're like, dude, this will be your shit. And I didn't, I was like, no, I heard about bad trips. I have anxiety, so, like, there's no way this is going to be good. I've never in my life been that happy. And aside from me being happy, let no one think that Eddie Vedder don't fucking smash so hard. Like, that concert was just fucking awesome. I was double fisting beers, but not even really drinking them because on mushrooms, you don't have to drink them. I was just kind of like, blah, you know.
Starting point is 00:27:03 More than them on your face. Just fucking hit. Yeah, he just wanted something cold on your skin, dude. And like, when you're in that moment of mushrooms and you start hearing shit from your childhood, there couldn't be a better, like, experience. It was unreal. Hey, this, like, for drug reasons, this ain't on the list or whatever, but that same Bonneroo, what about killer Mike on Thursday night at like 9 p.m.? How fucking rad was that? Fuck Ronald Reagan.
Starting point is 00:27:30 He had Bryce chanting. Fuck Ronald Reagan. He also. His daddy wouldn't have been upset. He goes, Tom. Tom Petty that ho. Yeah. Tom Petty.
Starting point is 00:27:40 And then he goes, I don't even know what the fuck that means y'all just doing it. Dude, all right. I mean, I got too many. I got too many. I've Tom Petty a ho. Corey, that really is in my top five. Trey,
Starting point is 00:27:50 it was fun. We saw BJ Barham, American Aquarium, in a dive bar. Before we were friends with BJ. Yeah. And I stood out there drunk, yelling songs at him. Drunk. I really don't know him at this point. No.
Starting point is 00:28:04 No. He probably wouldn't remember that show, period. but I would not want. I would not want him to know that it was me because I was like, Tennessee, play Tennessee. And then he did.
Starting point is 00:28:16 And he did, he played it. And I love that song. Somebody tell this lesbian to shut up. I'm going to play Tennessee. Yeah, I kept, but I was hollering at it.
Starting point is 00:28:24 That's a flashpoint memory for me or whatever. I got too many. Well, let me just pick one and I'll just tell the story. I think, fuck. I did mushrooms one year at Bonarue. and I kind of stumbled upon
Starting point is 00:28:40 no thank you um die aren'tward oh yeah oh yeah they'd love to say that and there was like there was a crowd and they were waiting
Starting point is 00:28:53 and lights were flashing on the stage like blinking kind of like it looked like in a movie where like they're in an old hospital and the fluorescent lights are blinking and that you know that little um the little person that was their DJ
Starting point is 00:29:09 but also had a disease that made him look really strange. You remember that? No, I've only ever seen their music videos actually, which is always just them too, right? Well, he died. Okay. But he was in one of their first, I'm going to show him to you. Rest of peace, Josey.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Yeah. But this. This man falling in JocC's footsteps. But he looked, listen, I'm about to show you. Tiny and tiny ones. I'm about to show you, hold on. This is different. You got a little Morgan for him in it with that.
Starting point is 00:29:36 teeny tiny footsteps Joe C. I can't do Morgan Freeman. I mean, you convince me that I could. You just, the way you said tainty and tiny the first time, I start,
Starting point is 00:29:48 maybe I just wanted to hear Morgan Freeman in my head. He had a kid rock. Snake. So anyway, the South Africans little person. I want to show you what this person looks like because it's... This is die Antwer's Medget.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Oh, wow. Yeah, okay. He's got like a thing. Oh, that's serpent weiner. So, Yeah. I happen upon and I'm like, what's going on? That's Dobby. And Andy's like, this band, rules.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And I was like, this is that rap you played for me. And it was really funky and strange. I was like, all right, we'll check it out. It's for DJ, so I was in. Exactly me too. And then they put that pitcher up. And the crowd goes nuts. And like, I'm on shrooms, dude.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Looks like a fucking tiny little goblin. And then you hear that. fucking thick Afri-Connor accent of the frontman, Ninja, just saying something like, rest in peace to our brother! And then 90 people that felt like walked on stage in orange jumpsuits. And you didn't know... Like prison jumpsuits? But with hoods, and you didn't know which one Ninja was, and it was...
Starting point is 00:30:56 Dong... Don, don't. And the beat dropped. And then he started just spitting. And then for... I don't know what happened for the next hour. Yeah, but it was hitting. Because, like, they are so weird.
Starting point is 00:31:10 And they were performance artists before they were musicians. And she's a painter. So, like, the stage looked fucking incredible. That blew my fucking mind. That was also the same Bonnero. I got to see Kanye play when the sun came up. So I wish so badly that I could have seen Kanye before everything happened. That's the thing about Bonneroo.
Starting point is 00:31:30 Or, I mean, I guess, like, Bonneroo is the only major festival I've ever been to. but like some of the other Hittner ones are probably the same way but that's the thing I've been to ACL and Bonneroo's different you it's just it's home fucking planet man and you go and like you have these experiences you feel like you've never have anywhere else we already talked about like the cage of elephant one or the Portugal the man one that shit happens in the day time you know what I mean I saw one fucking Bonaroo I saw the Beastie boys who brought Nause on stage with them that was the last time the Beastie Boys ever played together live. Them, then Jay-Z, them public enemy after that in one like three-hour block or whatever.
Starting point is 00:32:13 I'm like, dude, you can't. You can't fuck with that. I went to Austin City Limits and it was fucking awesome. Like from a purely, I enjoy singer-songwriters and there was a lot of, you know, Robert R. Keene was there. There was a fucking great lot of the people that I respect and love. But it didn't, Now, granted, it could have just been an off day for ACL or I didn't go to the right spot. But, like, Bonaroo is almost like your, Bonaroo is the selling point, not the bands. You know what I mean? You go to Bonaroo and then also you get to see these bands while you're there. Yes, exactly.
Starting point is 00:32:50 It's like Vince McMahon used to say a lot about WWE. He's like, no, WWE, the brand sells the tickets. They come there and then they see the wrestlers. People see WWE is coming to town and they want to see that. they don't even think about who the fuck is wrestling because the brand is so popular. And Bonneru is the same way. Like, the lineup is great, but, like, I know that if you go to Bonneroo and you don't know any of the fucking people that are going to be there.
Starting point is 00:33:14 You don't even know. You're going to discover your new favorite fucking band, and you're also going to have an experience that's crazy. So I pick Monterey Pop for that reason as far as my past one. Because, like, I would love to have seen Johnny Cash play Folsom Prison while drunk. I would love to have seen a bunch of different things back then. But like, Monterey, it was between Monterey Pop and Woodstock for me, for the reason you just said about Bonneroo.
Starting point is 00:33:40 So how cool would have been to experience the birth of that. Well, I mean, Woodstock, too. So I said, Woodstock or Monoray. I chose Monterey. The other thing that is so wild about Bonneru is like just how much any band or any show can hit or hit in a way you wouldn't expect. Even if you don't like them? It's definitely not that I don't like them.
Starting point is 00:34:00 I love them. but me and you saw the National at the main stage and we were in the pit for it. And if anybody knows, National might be literally my favorite modern band. They're very up there because I'm a depressed white 37-year-old. Yeah, right, exactly. But the Nationals like music for people to listen to as they chop up garlic while it rains outside, right? Like, that's what the Nationals. They are good at that.
Starting point is 00:34:23 And I fucking love them, right? But they don't, people don't think of them, I think, as rocking. Yeah, they don't rock. Well, so me and Drew saw him at bottom row on the main stage. Really? We were in the pit and at what, first of all, they rocked throughout. But at one point, Burninger, the front man, ran down into the pit and I swear to God, tell me I'm lying. You ain't lying.
Starting point is 00:34:47 Stopped right in front of me and like lit, like, I was on the right shoulder, Drew was on the left shoulder. And he was singing, Mr. November and fucking, I mean, that's one of the right. drugs are you on? What drugs were on? What drugs were on? Wade, bow. I think he was probably just high. Same types of shit.
Starting point is 00:35:05 It was the Portugal and the man year. It was the same year. That dude, that fucking Bonneru was lit. Now, this is a zoomed-in version of it. You're in. The reason I'm not, the reason I'm not looking at the singer
Starting point is 00:35:17 is because Teets took this picture as I looked at you saying, can you fucking believe this? I look like I'm about to cry. This was also on my lips. Let me tell you another experience I had at Bonarood now that you've brought up Teets,
Starting point is 00:35:27 and this was a wonderful experience for me. a silent disco. You were there, Drew. Me, you and Tietz went to a fucking silent disco and I was twacked out of my fucking mind on what I was told was European speed. And what I did,
Starting point is 00:35:48 which is the weirdest thing you could do at a silent disco, because if you don't know what a silent disco is, there's usually two DJs and you have headphones on and you can select which DJ you're listening to. so everybody in there is dancing to a different thing. Well, what I did because I was so fucked up was I took off my headphones to where I wasn't listening to nobody, but I was just watching everybody silently dance. Yeah, that's a wild thing.
Starting point is 00:36:15 And it was fucking crazy, knowing that they've got all this shit going on in their mind, but I can't hear it. It was bizarre. I think anybody goes to a silent disco properly fucked up has that moment where they take it off and look around. It's great. It's, yeah, it is great.
Starting point is 00:36:31 To me, it was the, it was the best way to experience it, was just to watch a, I would call them cattle. Just watch the cattle react to all this shit while you go, nothing's really even going on. Something we're all referencing,
Starting point is 00:36:47 but that we didn't make a category. And I think you were the first one to directly say it, Trey, when you said with your dad, my morning jacket, drunk, or maybe you said stoned. Um,
Starting point is 00:36:59 I said shroom. Who you're with. Oh, that matters should be a cat. Cause I'm thinking like, because I'm compiling this long list of great experiences in my head. I saw, um,
Starting point is 00:37:10 the first time I saw Trample by Turtles was at Terminal 5 in New York, but I was with my best friend Ben Taylor. Teats was with me the first time I did mushrooms and we saw fucking purity ring. Like the stories I've told about you guys. Yeah. I think that if mushrooms, dude. Yeah. And we were so high.
Starting point is 00:37:27 Buddy, we were so. so high that everyone thought we were on Molly because we were screaming at each other like no one else existed in the whole world. We were in love that night. I think that if you weren't with me during Pearl Jam, it wouldn't have been as rad. It's, dude, Brian, I saw, I saw Tyler Childers drunk and on a little bit of mushrooms this year at Red Rocks with Brian, my best friend since second grade. Wonderful. And, well, yeah, and dude, like, I got, I got us tickets because I know people. You know what I mean? It was like, it was a cool experience all the way. Me and you took Molly and saw Trampled by Turtles at the fucking rhyming.
Starting point is 00:38:03 We did. And that was your bachelor party. It was my bachelor party. And had you not been there on Molly with me, don't you're wrong, I still think that sober, trampled by turtles would have a hit for me. Teats couldn't get in because he would not let them have his pocket knife. He was sitting there going just like this fucking, not flamboyantly gay, but now mad so obviously. so obviously gay man? He's not flamboyantly gay unless you... Yeah, what you just said.
Starting point is 00:38:31 So this obviously gay because he's mad man going. So the Ryman. The Ryman Auditorium. Country Music's hollowed ground. You can't have a pocket knife? On that note, with that context, I got a good one for the three of us
Starting point is 00:38:47 when we watched the Punch Brothers and Sam Bush and all those bluegrass legends have their like super jam. I wasn't even on drugs. On the stage. that we had all been on earlier that night. And we did that night.
Starting point is 00:38:58 We did that night, too. We had a really good night. Yeah, that was a great night. When I, I came off and y'all were talking, like, I came off in the first thing I saw was you two standing there talking to Dirk's Bentley. Yeah. And I walked up and, and I was like, hey, Dirk's, I'm trying. He was like, yeah, I know, man.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Yeah. For me. When we were about to go on, I was super nervous. and the main reason I was nervous is because we met Sam Bush before. We did. Like we met Sam Bush before. And so I was about to go up. And one of the coolest moments in my entire career and like it's going to be hard to top was I'm sitting, you know, side stage about to go on.
Starting point is 00:39:44 And right as they're calling my name, Sam Bush goes, go get them, kid. You know, and I was like, what the fuck? Like this is crazy. But I wasn't even on drugs. because, you know, we don't do drugs before we do a set. Oh, no, none of those were on drugs. I'd had, like, four beers, you know, and that was, but then, I mean, don't your wrong afterwards, we got fucked up as bone cancer.
Starting point is 00:40:04 We were in the crowd watching. Oh, that was so great, man. Handy happened to be there for the die-auntward thing. I'm trying to think of the best moment I've had with her. Man, there's just been a lot. I mean, one that was super cool. It's not like it meant a lot, but it was super cool. We were on Molly in Portland in the VIP area for Mark Ribblee, and he was,
Starting point is 00:40:23 crushing it, that guy who does all those loops about feeling on your booty. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Was that when we had a show and I left you because I didn't want to do Molly? No, because I was hanging out with Patterson, and Patterson got us in because it was sold out, but Patterson, because he's played the Crystal Ball Room in Portland, just like they just let him in sometimes. Yeah, yeah, right, of course, yeah. And so it was hilarious because to our left, we had really fucked up 23-year-olds making out with each other on Molly. he listened to Mark Ribbley.
Starting point is 00:40:54 And to our right, we had Patterson and his buddy Funk, the guitarist for the Decembris, who are in their 50s, just like literally going, well, this kid's something. Is this what they're doing now? And me and Andy were just rubbing each other's skin in the middle. So we saw, we saw marshmallow sober. No, hang on. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Corey, I'm not kidding.
Starting point is 00:41:17 I want to get to that. And I'm going to get to, but like, you're talking about with Andy, you and Andy got all these great memories or whatever. giving Katie any amount of credit at all, which I've told you all this story before. And also, I know how these dudes ultimately ended up. But me and Katie went to Bonnery together when we first started dating in like 2008 or 2009.
Starting point is 00:41:39 And she had only one show she wanted to see. And it was at the other tent at like 1 p.m. on Saturday, right? Which is also when the U.S. was playing England in the World Cup, right? And they had a stage set up where they were showing that. And they were right beside each other. So I was like, all right, well, I'm going to see this soccer game and we'll go over there or whatever. And we did. And we went over there and we're watching them.
Starting point is 00:42:03 And Katie, dude, Katie's taste of music. Like something to be desired. Right. Well, we're watching them. I was like, these guys are pretty fucking good. And it was Mumford and sons. Oh, yeah. And they were like, and again, when nobody knew who they were at all.
Starting point is 00:42:19 And I remember they were pissed because we had tied them. in the World Cup like we always do. Makes it even. Were they going off about it from stage? Yeah, they were like, congratulations on your drool with us. You must be very excited about that. That's literally what they said. You gave me mine.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Go ahead. But what Corey said, I was going to do all these hidden concert stories. Now the opposite. And I was going to say, it's funny to keep in mind how subjective music is and how subjective the experience is, right? Like, oh, there's the most incredible night in my life. But there's probably some people there who were like, fuck that show. This is the worst thing I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:43:00 So on that note, the three of us, but especially me and Corey, because you were having a good time. And you were on mushrooms or whatever, I think. But we went and saw Marshmeller. Oh, I had a great time. Yeah. We went and saw Marshmella in Vegas. In Vegas. We were there doing shows.
Starting point is 00:43:20 Was Bryce? Yeah, it was Bryce's idea. So we went and saw Marshmeller at this, you know, this real hitting nightclub in Vegas with a shit butt with a shitload of people in it. And all I'm saying is I guarantee you there were a bunch of people there that night who were like, this is fucking incredible. Yeah, of course. This had the night of their lives. But me and Corey were standing in the back laughing about it and creating a fake. butt helmet
Starting point is 00:43:53 wearing DJ that we wanted to see DJ butt like imagine DJ butt up there he walks up his whole it's like dead mouse but it's a butt
Starting point is 00:44:03 and he walks up and right when the beat drops he shoots baby powder out his butt hole like and then the beat drops and fucking now granted
Starting point is 00:44:11 we were having a good time we were having a good time we were ironically having a good time but I'm saying but we were shitting on everybody and everything
Starting point is 00:44:19 we were now had me And those people were having the time of their lives. Now, had me and you, because we were, I won't say sober, we'd been drinking. Had me and you found some molly, we probably would have had a good time. Or you might have shit on it, you know, on Molly. But I've always told this to Amber. Like, she has a taste in music, I assume, similar to Katie in that it don't hit.
Starting point is 00:44:45 Is it mostly just like if it's got a good beat, you can dance to it, then it hits for her? Yes. That's how Katie is. Now, granted, once me and Amber got together, now she likes, like Tyler Childers is actually her favorite. Like, she's learned from me, as you should, teach your woman how to do stuff. But, like, I, like, there have been so many times that Amber, something would come on, and I was like, you like this shit.
Starting point is 00:45:06 And she's like, you don't understand. If you're on a fuck ton of Molly, and I'm like, okay, that's not a qualifier for good music. Like, the music should be good if you're not fucked up on Molly. Yeah, but I already gave the pretty lights example. No, I know. Not the pretty lights don't hit, but I'm saying, like, I've been there. No, I know, I know. All that, no, all me and teach did was make fun of people while we were listening to
Starting point is 00:45:31 purity ring to their face. Explosions in the sky. You would think, you would, everybody would go, well, that's in that same genre. If you're on a bunch of drugs, it's good. I could be sober as a judge. Me too. Me too. I could be sober as a judge, and I would cry my fucking eyes out.
Starting point is 00:45:45 Me too. Me too. Okay, me too. so that doesn't fall into that category. But Scrillix, I have to be. I saw Scrillix on Molly, too. Rad. Okay, right.
Starting point is 00:45:56 But if you were sober, but if you were sober, but if you were sober, but if you were so. My point is, I think good music needs to be enjoyed through your headphones when you're walking through a park. And if you can only experience it when you're fucked up on drugs, it's good drug music, but it's not good music. Boo. Okay. And here's why. Okay. Because sometimes our brains need to be opened up so that we can take it.
Starting point is 00:46:27 Because like sometimes just marijuana, just a little bit of pot, I'll hear something in a song for the first fucking time and it'll blow my goddamn mind. It was that good before I got high, but I wasn't, I needed to come to it. That's fair. That's fair. And I don't mean to say that these are not good musicians. They're just not for me. What I'm saying is if I need to be my blood pressure at the max fucked up on speed. You're talking about.
Starting point is 00:46:58 Yes, that is what I'm talking about. Yeah. I can see it. I do too. I've got some ADM shit on my like workout playlist. Yeah, when you're jacked, I get still goes for me. But it's, you know, but I wouldn't know about any of it. Can I do something that's immoral and perhaps illegal real quick?
Starting point is 00:47:14 Listen, if you're out there and you're having trouble with your marriage and you can work this out, just fucking take some molly together just take some fucking molly together go see st s 9 hell yeah yeah to rub on each other see each other in a new light and there is a good chance that you get divorced after that it's one of the no i'm saying like it could bring you together or you could have this most honest moment where you're like oh my god we are not supposed to be together that'll be good too for sure like if you got if you got married when you were 18 because you were at the church i'll say this if your marriage can't make it without drugs yes It's not a good marriage.
Starting point is 00:47:50 I agree with that. I want to do a new thing, but it's very related. It's very adjacent. Yeah, I think we're good. Yeah, we did almost the whole hour on this. And also, I decided mine in Andy's best concert was when she introduced me to the Avert Brothers. I'd never heard of them and they blew my mind. They still hit for you?
Starting point is 00:48:05 Yeah. I mean, some of their newer stuff's not as good, but of course, they'll always have, do. Oh, I love the Avet Brothers. That's that first album. I love them. Not existentialism. Emotionalism. Emotionalism is still a top 20 album for me.
Starting point is 00:48:17 all right here's something that i love thinking about it's a very stone thought but i love to think about i'm into this i can't wait all right tray you're talking about that soccer game it is not super likely but more likely than like is zero way more likely than zero it's possible and not absurdly like very possible that andy was watching that soccer game and you and katie came over and then at some point you was like that's goddamn right and then Andy looked over and was like who the fuck is this redneck
Starting point is 00:48:51 yeah and for people who are listening right now like what is you talking about we didn't know each other yet we had never met but we have been in this meeting and other scenes I love that I think about that didn't you
Starting point is 00:49:03 didn't we determine that at some weightlifting meet in college one of my teammates got into a fight with one of your team guys got an argument with me yeah right yeah Amber yeah no dude that shit is you know me and you
Starting point is 00:49:16 grew up as the crow flies, what, a hundred miles from each other? It's still wild. It's, yes, I have thought about that shit before, and yeah, this is on theme with this episode, the My Morning Jacket at Bonaroo
Starting point is 00:49:30 when it was raining, my wife was there, and it's possible that you go, look at that dumb, big titty bitch, you know, and you could have seen her. To me,
Starting point is 00:49:39 he could have looked, I think, one other year. Yeah, uh, no, we saw Jim James together. No,
Starting point is 00:49:45 when I saw my morning and jacket. Yeah, I know, because I, like... Yeah. We saw Jim James together at, uh... The one you were just referencing. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:54 He did the, uh, no, we saw Jim James when he did the, he did the super jam that year. Okay. Everyone is, everyone listening around. We don't care. You finally got to something. Sorry. Well, I love thinking about that. There's a show.
Starting point is 00:50:08 Did you see the doth? Uh, no, that, but that's the guy from the wire making a show about porn, right? About the basically about the 42nd Street Times Square area. Before it became Disney, it was a place to get hookers and then it eventually birthed American porn out of that.
Starting point is 00:50:27 Right. I don't want to give too much away, but the last scene, it's not a pre-life. You know, like before we knew each other, we crossed paths. It's a post-life. I mean, it's a little hammy.
Starting point is 00:50:42 You know, like, oh, yeah, did that really happen? Corey screamed out like ham from the bathroom. People have said that sentence before. Two of the main characters almost see each other in New York. Right. But don't. I love thinking about that.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Like people who are out of your life forever, you might have almost seen them or was in the same spot. Yeah, this isn't the same thing, but I remember one time talking one of my buddies about like crossroads in your life and what would have happened and whatever else. and this was in like our mid-20s or something. Oh, yeah. So, like, when I first went to UT in Knoxville, my grandpa died, I ended up coming back home and then went to Tennessee Tech and Cookville, right? Right. How many other people in your family have died, Trey?
Starting point is 00:51:29 Well, since then a lot, but that was a pretty big one. And I remember being, well, actually, we couldn't have been our mid-20. This was probably like, we were talking about it, and I remember thinking, like, as they asked me, like, would you rather stay at UT or whatever? And first of all, I don't really care. But I just remember thinking about it and being like, if I had stayed at UT. Never made it. But then I remembered that Katie was a year older than me.
Starting point is 00:51:59 And she went to UT for one year before she flamed out. And so, and so in my head, in my high brain, I was like, shit, I might have met her there anyway. Like me and Katie were in Knoxville at the same time. You know what I mean? And I was like, and then that got me thinking like, I could have met her and hit harder. But would that have happened? Right. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:52:25 It's like, would not have happened. No, I know that. Well, maybe. I know, but if you think about like, if you start getting mystical about it and thinking fucking fate and destiny and stuff like that, it's like if I could go back, if I, it's like some time travel movies are. If I could go back and be like, no, I'm staying at UT. But I still met Katie in a different. way while we were both in Knoxville.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Do you know what I mean? You start thinking about that type of shit and it's wild. I think that would have happened? No, I'm just saying I know exactly what you mean. And I've also thought about that. People make fun of me and Andy because we met in college because we crossed past had to because we grew up within so much close proximity each other, playing similar sports. But like, she was two years anyway.
Starting point is 00:53:07 You know how many times I've thought about? Like, I was very close to not going to Marival College. very close for a variety of different reasons I'd have never met Andy I don't think but see also like the romantic part of me also goes like that was a big crossroads in my life which college I ended up going to
Starting point is 00:53:27 and if I had chose this one there's still a chance I could have met Katie because she was living there and that makes you think about like like fucking like I said fate or like meant to be together like if you like the idea and I know it wouldn't work this way. I'm just saying. Think about it in movie terms. The idea that you could go back and change her path, my path, whatever, anyway, but we still somehow intersected. Like, well, dude, I like thinking about it. No, I hear you. When Amber, when Amber moved, when Amber moved home from college, like, the only reason she was in my life is because she was my sister's best friend. So she used to come over to my house all the time. And I genuinely had zero romantic
Starting point is 00:54:12 feelings for her at all. She was just my friend. And then one night we're at our house, or my house at the time, drunk, and she was talking about, you farting? Oh, oh, we were talking, we were talking about, we were talking about her, I'm stinking. We were talking about her moving home from college. And she said to me, she's like, yeah, you know, I'm about to graduate. And it really sucks because, like, I'm going to have to move back in with my parents, because it's not like I'm just going to get a job or whatever. And I was just drunk enough to just go, just move in with me. If she'd have had that conversation with any other dude.
Starting point is 00:54:51 Right. Like any other dude. Like it just happened to be she decided to say that at the time she was on my porch. She could have been at my buddy Blake's house. She could have met my buddy Brad's house. And she could have said that. And all of them would have been like just move in here. So what I'm saying is that is totally.
Starting point is 00:55:06 That's how the point. That's how the world works, what you just said. and that's like the multiverse version where there's there's versions where she said this she did this or whatever but i'm saying there's also the like the other version the fucking rom-com version of it where it's like some other dude did say right in here but then you were drunk at the same bar she was drunk at you know right she cheated on him with you well and i'm saying it's like you know that you were meant to be and frankly she did She did move in with me, and then I hit on her and tried to be with her.
Starting point is 00:55:44 She said no, and I moved to New York. Right. So there's a whole lot of other... Daddy give to dick, daddy take away. But all that stuff, regardless, it all is predicated on. Had she never said that, had she never looked at me and said, I'm moving home and I don't want to move on my parents, I would have never thought of her any other way ever than my friend.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Well, shit, dude. Like, getting into all that stuff, like, my fucking, my grandpa got shot through the windshield of a car. With a sawed-off shotgun when he was 18 years old. What is wrong with the shotgun just being regular? In this case, it seems like they made it worse. My saw on it off because he survived it, right? It does. It makes it spread quicker so you can shoot a bigger area, but it's less deadly.
Starting point is 00:56:40 Right. And so that's what happened. He got shot through the windshield of a car with a sawed-off shotgun. And until the day he died, he had little, like, you know, shot. My Papa had him in a family. But, like, that's how close you were to not being born. To never be in here. Dude, my papal.
Starting point is 00:57:01 And you know how many times that's happened chasing our ancestors lineage? Oh, yeah, dude. A miracle. A miracle. Isn't that a Bill Bryce? fucking trillion to one miracle that you exist the way that you do. I think it's more than that. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Bill Bryson did the calculation in one of his books. Bill Bryson? That's the dude. Bill Bryson fucking rules. I think he did the calculation in one of his books. It's not just the humans, your daddy's daddy's daddy's daddy. It goes back to the dawn of time. To the fucking first creature that walked out of the slop.
Starting point is 00:57:36 Right. Right. The ride on is a miracle. The primordial soup. that's fucking, that shit is crazy. So quit being sad and take Molly. We're coming back to it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:47 That's, I'm talking now directly to the people listening. Mine and Andy's... This is good for... Remind me of this for Stoner Cho. All right, let me say this. My Papa's version of this is he went to war, didn't die, first of all, didn't get shot, so there's that like you were saying,
Starting point is 00:58:02 but he had a family. Sounds like you're bragging pretty hard. Yeah, he had, yeah. You're probably didn't go to war and he got shot, pussy. I know why I'm here. Who's in the National Guard? My Papa ain't a queer. That's why I'm alive.
Starting point is 00:58:13 He didn't get here with no gun. He was a driver. He was the wrong age, God damn it. Just so y'all know. Well, listen. He was in the guard. Just listen. Okay.
Starting point is 00:58:23 Everybody's Papal hits. Okay. No. Did your papal have a baby with an Italian woman? Ooh. And the government wouldn't let him get married because of fascism and she didn't speak English. And, you know, who knows if she was 18? I made that last part up.
Starting point is 00:58:40 But he had a six-year-old. Who cared what a woman talked about? Also at war, he was 19 or something. He had a six-year-old by the time he, or a five-year-old by the time he left Italy that they put up for adoption, and she got back in touch with him through letters lately. You're Italian? That's my point.
Starting point is 00:58:55 No. If they had let them get married, he wouldn't have come home and married my mama. Right. And I wouldn't exist if the U.S. government would have let my papal marry Coachella. And don't you wish they had enough... Wouldn't it hit? We were talking about how it's a miracle that any of us exists,
Starting point is 00:59:15 and I was like, think about that from a suicidally depressed person's perspective. What are the odds that I have to be here with this fucking shit? If you look at the astronomical odds against me having to suffer this fucking laugh. You have no idea. You changed your voice for that character and it hit for me. You have no idea how many times... All right. I wake up.
Starting point is 00:59:38 and go, why? You know what I mean? Is it daily? Well, it's bullshit. I talk to my parents about it all the time. They're like, you should do this. And then I'm like, I did not in any way ask you to to do what you did to make me be here. Why the fuck are any of us responsible for anything?
Starting point is 00:59:59 Like, I don't want to be alive. You know what I mean? Like, do you? I mean, yeah. Well, okay, sometimes. But like, but like, but when you've. got me thinking about all this and I'm like god damn it if one thing had been different I would just be nothing in the fucking ether or would I be somebody else is that how it works would I be
Starting point is 01:00:20 somebody else we don't know you might be somebody else you're you're like asking one of the questions oh yeah I don't know we don't I don't head I know in my heart but I don't I don't I don't want to share it um I broke my leg playing football my senior year and because of that I went and did theater and there's no way. You wouldn't have met Andy. I wouldn't have met Andy. That's true. That's hilarious.
Starting point is 01:00:47 There's no way I'd be the queer I am today. There's no way. Broken Leg sending me into theater. 2002. I'm the opposite. I tried to hit on her a lunch line and she ignored me. She says she don't remember it. The theater's how I got her, dude.
Starting point is 01:00:59 I'm like such the opposite because Amber's dad is like a contractor and like they're all like manly. Like it's insane that she married a queer like me. So I don't know what I could have done different. You know what I mean? Like, coulda. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Well, hey, if you, uh, you can cut, are we high? Where are we high? Oh, I'm high, but where are we at? Watch weekly scoos. Watch weekly scoos.
