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.

It's just like you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie. I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now. Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people. People across the ske universe, I should say.

Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year? Do you even know? Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery? Getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

They're the... Rolling. All right. Here we are. Well, Redders. We're back. We want a second time in the ATC studios. First time was a doozy, boys.

Sure was. If you came back, we appreciate it. Thanks for that. I have a story to tell today about another altercation, and I want everyone to know that the altercation I spoke about last week happened months ago. So I just don't want anyone to think that I have altercations weekly. Yeah. I can see people thinking that. I can see that too because you often talk about altercations that you have on this show.

And it's kind of like when you're watching a movie. When you watch a movie, you only see the highlights of the character. You don't see them go into the grocery store and brushing their teeth. You know what I'm saying? That's not exciting to talk about. It was at the grocery store. Okay. So you nailed that.

Well, go ahead. Let's have it. Let's have it. All right. Okay. I was at the grocery store. Trader Joe's here is a madhouse. Oh, yeah.

I love Trader Joe's. I don't even go anymore because it's always too insane. Yeah. So there's a guy waiting because somebody's about to pull out of a parking spot. I see him. And then another person starts to pull out. So I throw my blinker on. Now, there's a parking spot closer to me,

and a parking spot closer to him. But my guy is right up against the parking spot closest to him. There's no way he can get in there. So I think he's going to go past and get the one closest to me. So I do the thing, you know, like where you're like, you hear me here? Yeah. Yeah.

And he gives me some sign back. Not this one. My head just stitches. He gives me some sign back. So I think we're on the same page. He's going to get the one closest to me, especially because that person had pulled out first. So it was like he saw that one first.

and then while he was waiting, the other one opened up. So I'm like, all right, we're going to do, we're going to go past each other. Because it's easier for him to get in that one and I can get in this other one. Well, as he comes past me, another boy, the homeboy swoops in like he's going to get the one I'm waiting on. So I've got to get in there. I'm like, well, I'm not, you know, I'm getting in there. So I go to get in that spot. And then the first dude was trying to back in to that one.

Oh, okay. And nearly hit me. So I honk so he doesn't hit me. That's the only reason I honk. Matter of fact, I didn't even honk. He sees me and he starts yelling his windows down. My window's cracked. What the fuck are you doing?

Just like coming at me. I'm like, dude, there's a spot right there. I didn't. So I get all the way in there. He backs into the spot. That's literally one car away. There's a car in between the two spots we parked in. There's no difference.

and I get out of my car, and he's yelling at me. Like full blast, hey, you fucking asshole, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, before I got out of the car... What type of feller was this? Old man. Uh-huh. Old white man?

Old white man. Okay. But with a hint of an accent. Like ours? Nope. Midwest, Chicago? No, like Armenian? Maybe Armenian.

Ooh, okay. Well, you don't want to fuck with him. Hell no. And it looked like somebody you didn't want to fuck with. Like, there was a roughness to his face, right? So right before I got out of the car, though, I heard him yelling. And I'm not just saying this. I literally was like, just be nice.

Just be cool. Because I've actually been like trying to get on top of me and my anger and all that. Because I don't ever feel good when I get mad at somebody, you know? And it's funnier if you're calm. And someone's yelling at you, right? So I get out and he's yelling at me. And I go, I love that you're doing it for the comedy of it, not to be a better person for your kid.

Like I've found that when I'm calm, it's more hilarious in the interaction. Well, I don't, I mean, there's been a few times in my life where I've yelled at somebody, and I felt like after it was like, damn, I'm a bad person. But usually when I yell at somebody after, I'm just like, I just made me look like the bad guy when I wasn't a bad guy. So it's like, you know what I'm saying? Oh, yeah. And that's like, that's the thing that happens with your wife too, where she knows she's wrong.

So she keeps pushing in buttons until you do something wrong, right? So thank you for that, Gandhi. Go fuck yourself. But you're welcome, but I know what you, I know what you mean because, almost every time my wife has actually legitimately done something that she should have apologized for, by the end of our argument, I'm the one that has to apologize because I've gone overboard. And I ended up apologizing. I go to bed and I'm like, wait, this was, she did that shit. Right. Do you remember that lady that got all over you at the Starbucks in the hotel?

Oh, my God, yeah. And then I gave her. She literally signed that. She was like, hey, hey, goodbye. as I left the fucking Starbucks. Oh, my God, that infuriate me. So what I'm getting at is like... I didn't do nothing. You looked like the bigger, like... I feel like my motivation has always been, if I'm trying to be calm in that scenario,

like, look like the bigger person. Because as terms of being a good person, I'm not saying I can't improve as a person, but rarely am I yelling at somebody did later, I feel like, damn, I shouldn't have done that. Because in my mind, they fucking deserve it. It's why I'm fucking yelling. But I get out and this dude's yelling at me,

and I've centered myself, and he's like, oh, you fucking asshole, this and that. And I go, hey, buddy. And I said it just like that with a smile and as southern as I could, but like soft southern, not like, God damn it, but I go, hey, buddy, you ain't going to yell at me because you don't know how to fucking park, all right? And I just start to walk off. And he goes, this is what you do?

You take old people's parking spots. So then I like, I turn around and I kind of laugh. What if that was what you do? I know. Like, if that was like a. big thing for you. You're always, you're like,

you know, I love to take old people's parking spots. Like you're like, circle parking lots looking for pap balls with their blinkers on. You're like,

it's time fucking whip it in there. Yeah. Dick gets hard. Anyway. So I turn around. And then I, there's definitely an aspect of this too of, uh,

not like kind of like you got to remember who you are, what you sound like, what you look like. I took a step towards his parking spot. And I was like, as I was saying, it's four feet away dude and then I said you want to switch

we can switch back but you're not going to yell at me and he's starting to get out of the car now and his face has changed and he gets out and it was like a movie he goes no this is what you do you scare old people now until this point I've only seen him from here up

and he looked like an older dude but he looked like a rugged he sounded and he was cussing at me he had like a fucking gold tooth then he gets out dude this is a frail-bodied old dude And like, it generally broke, it genuinely broke my heart. You got, like, sad.

He's like, you're one of those people. He broke my heart. He's like, take our parking spots and then you scare us. To ruin our days. And you scare us. Like, he runs into this all the time. Yeah. Like, it's an epidemic of people doing that.

And it broke my heart. Genuinely, because I was laughing, but like not taking shit. Yeah. From like a rugged pap on. And now it's an old man. So I'm like, I literally go, all right, buddy. I'm, I'm really. sorry, I scared you. And I go to leave

and he goes, well, you have a good day. I get in there, Andy, I dropped Andy off because she's pregnant. I find her. I'm like, I'm never coming to this Trader Joe's again. I started to tell her the story and she's like, is he in here? And I go, I'm sure that he is. And we're walking around and I'm like, Andy, I'm buying his fucking groceries.

She's like, what? And I go, I just, I feel bad because he was when he said you scare people is what you do. He was scared. I scared that old man by walking towards his car even though I was walking towards it while making this point about the space. She's like, don't do that.

That's weird or whatever. Well, the next time I did see him, he was buying flowers. So instead of buying his groceries, I bought flowers. Was it his dead wife's anniversary or something like that? Like, he's on his way to the cemetery. Shut your Hollywood mouth. Don't you ruin my story. So.

By the way, I'm picturing this guy is the dude in Breaking Bad that has to talk with the bail. That's who's in my mind. Mark, Margolis. What's funny is he just died. He looks like Mike. He did. He looked like Mike.

Yeah, okay. And you know how that actor's so good, he could play the scary dude or a frail guy? Yeah, yeah. Well, this dude was both to me. So he's buying flowers. I'm like, all right, I'm going to buy flowers too. I'm just going to put him on his truck with a note. So that was my plan.

I bought the flowers. Had to get out of the parking spot I was in because as soon as someone saw me go to my car, they put their blinker on, and it was a shit show. So I pulled somewhere out of the way illegally. Like, wrote a note, hey man, I thought you were going for the other spot. I didn't mean to ruin your day. And I definitely didn't mean to scare you. Here's some flowers.

I'm sorry. And I get out of the car to go put him on his truck. He has made it back to his truck. And he's walking towards me because he's putting his cart away. And before I could say anything, he goes, buddy, I'm sorry. And I said, well, I saw you buying flowers. I bought these for you and he said

I've been under a lot of pressure lately my wife has dementia and she just broke her back and then he took the flowers and he starts crying and he said and the flowers were for my son who's been dead 11 years today

and then I just held this old man in a traitor Joe's parking lot while we both cried. His name is Jamie. Yeah. His son's name was, I think he said Adrian. Dude, that right there is like a short film.

Yeah. Like the whole thing, like you've got it. That's it. Just do that. Just do that. You win the Oscar for Best Short Film, I feel like the thing. That's like a beautiful human moment and also absolutely insane. And then he's in.

And then I was like, all right, man, you know, like, have a good day. And he said, you wrote something you wanted me to read. I'll take it. And I wanted, like, this is so like us. Yeah. Like, man, I wish I had to work harder on this fucking note. It's not that good. It's not that good.

I could have workshoped this a little bit. Damn it, Jamie, I didn't know all that stuff, dude. I just said, I'm sorry and explain why you were wrong. I should have actually. Yeah, right. Do you guys like exchange numbers? You're going to, like, go to his house for dinner or something like that? No, but I have.

considered going back to that Trader Joe's every day at the same time. I know what he had a sweet Tacoma. It was gold. I know what truck he drove. I've considered going back every day until I find him and then inviting him to meet my son as soon as he's born. And, you know, in the short film, you name your kid after his kid. Sure.

Yeah. Dude, how great would it be if Drew went back to Trader Joe's and the exact same thing happened? Like he tried to park and his guy's like, what the fuck, man? Right. And he forgot? Drew, and Drew go, but it's a different guy, right? And that happens, and Drew, like, goes straight to the hugging or whatever. You know what I mean?

He's like, I know you're going through a lot right now, but in this guy's like punching him. It punches him in the face or something. He's like, shut the fuck up. Dib shit, you queer? Don't touch me. Yeah, yeah. That would be super funny. There's someone listening right now.

Oh, now they don't do slurs. Yeah, we got them all out last week. Well, that was wonderful. you had said we're a couple of weeks at least behind on this but you wanted to talk about um children charter children jason al-dine and state of country music and gay people and all that stuff did i say i want to talk about that you texted you texted us and said we should talk about all that yeah well now i when we can get into it but i've been slated by the use of jason al dine in the riverboat brawl have you seen where people make that the music video they show al dine like

Try that in a small town of that cuts to them brus just beating the shit out of that mullet nightmare. That's great. That's great. Well, it's interesting you bring that up because there's a new thing on my mind. Shit. Man, I kind of want to – well, let's talk about Tyler and Jason first. I just – what did I say? I just want to talk about the state of country. You just said – you texted you were like, we should talk about Childers and Al Dane.

Yeah. Well, I say that I have been thorough – and I'm glad that y'all showed me that video and talked about the riverfront brawl, because I have since been absolutely immersed in the riverfront brawl cinematic universe. Oh my God, it's unbelievable. That black people Twitter has put together, and it's been amazing. What's your favorite so far? Well, there's one that this dude. The Avengers Portals is a good one.

The Avengers Portals was great. There was one where this dude did a training montage of him and a gym running on a treadmill while slinging a chair at the wall. And then, of course, there was the Avengers one. there was a DC one where the Justice League forms, but it's a black dude as Aquaman. That's been really good. I mean, dude, they're just, it's so quick, too. How great some of them are that took a lot of work. There's one like that, and y'all forgive me for not being as into that universe.

There's the one, I think I watched this with you guys, where they all come back, or they all just appear out of those little circles. There's one where a bro was everybody. He was Iron Man. He was everybody who showed up to fight at the end. There was into one movie where they all showed up to fight. Yeah, that was in-game. End-game. That's the portals.

That's what that's from. So there's a guy who showed up his face superimposed on all of them. And he was Aquaman. Well, that's the polar opposite of, do you all remember when like some super liberal Twitter person made that scene? But with like Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders and AOC and Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi and all they put them over? Why are we so corny? Dude, that was like the dumbest shit. It was so bad.

It was so cringe-worthy. My favorite, you remember someone remade, Make him away downtown? Make him a way downtown. And it was like, gangster rap. He was like, well, he, with gangster rap stuff. Like, cluck, clack, clack, clack. So somebody took that song and then put that as the background of him carrying around a chair,

but he had the chair in a holster. Like it was his gun, he was patting it, you know? And it was like he'd keep that thing on him, but it was a chair. That was my favorite. I don't know. So many things. I don't know if this is Photoshopped.

I just saw this this morning. Some police department, I think, in Alabama, two cops in police department, heavily kidded up, body armor, all that stuff looking super copy. Yeah. They took a picture of themselves with folding chairs holstered, and they're just like standing there, you know, like this, whatever.

And I saw in the context of it got posted to the black people, Twitter, subreddit, and the caption was like, okay, well, the joke is over now or something like that. Yeah. The one I saw a joke is over, somebody got the chair tattooed to them. Yeah. And somebody was like, black people told her,

was like, this is corny. They had a good run, though. And there was also the one where they showed the whole brawl, but superimposed the Good Times theme song over it. Yeah, that was pretty funny. I didn't see that, but that sounds good. This is, I feel like this is almost borderline racist. It's so barely related.

But you said Good Times and the theme song, and it reminded me of this anecdote, right? And it has to do another black shows theme song. If y'all heard the story of, like, Red Fox doing a show in Vegas, and I guess he had a residency, and he did a bunch of them. And one of the shows, he walked out there. There's like nine people in the crowd, you know, because Vegas shows can be like that, right?

So the announcer comes on the thing, and they're like, everybody, put your hands together for Red Fox, and then the Sanford Sun thing, so, and he walks out. He walks out, grabs the mic and goes, oh, fuck, no, I ain't doing a show for nine goddamn people. And turns around and walks off and the music comes back on. Burm-br-br-bram-brun-bram-brin.

What a legend, dude. That's so funny, dude. The MVP of that story is the sound guy. Yeah, because there's no way he was ready to do that, you know. No. But that's quick thinking, man. really funny or just like kind of autistic and like oh this is my job yeah right

it's got to hit the buddy yeah it could be either one either one either way it's funny um man the reason I paused a little on the state of country music thing is I feel like we have probably beaten that topic to death but I'm happy I think I was pretty buzzed up when I said that yeah I only brought it up because I thought you wanted to talk about I was furious at the time thinking about this fucking guy who writes his own songs from a small town in eastern Kentucky who

built his career literally through the holler, like with people buying his CDs directly from him versus this fucking Nashville machine guy. And it's like, what I can't stand about it is motherfuckers from wherever, not just Connecticut, like downtown Nashville wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight. Like Jason Aldeen, that's what's country, man. $60,000 fucking pickup trucks with the hitch on the back and it's squatted like that. So it looks like your truck's taking a shit. That's what I'm into because that's country. And then this Tyler video is queer. And it's like, It just, I'm just still pissed that what is the biggest mainstream representation of essentially my culture or what we grew up in is so fucking perverse. Yeah, and at the very least, people can't just accept that like, how about both of those things are?

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, man, do your way down to the Dollar General, Uncle Terry. That's fine. Yeah. That's the, that's the thing that bothers me is when people go, oh, you're not real country if you're not this. and I just want to go, okay, by the way, I'm not saying that some dude don't have a jacked up truck with American flag on it ain't country, but these two redneck gay dudes who live in a duplex and work at the pottery barn are from the south too, and we're more than one thing. So that reminds me, have you guys seen redneck brawls? Your buddy, your buddy Catfish coolly is on the Dias. He's the Joe Rogan of Redneck Brawls.

What? What are you talking about? Well, the Carfish coo thing was a joke. Barstool may have got a hold of it. I don't think it started out as a barstool thing. It's like those hood fight videos from back in the day. Or those rough and roundy. What was those bare knuckles that used to be a thing back in the day? So now what it is is to promote the fights,

they have the fighters who are just amateur, red-ass people, cut promos on each other. So they'll have a guy or gal, which is even fun here, post a clip of, I'm from West Virginia, and I'm calling out all you pussy's in, Kentucky. My name's Tater Gator, and I'm here to drop the fucking Smackdown, right? And then anyone from Kentucky can then respond to that guy, and then they decide who they'll fight them. Who wants to rise to the challenge to defend the honor of Kentucky? Trey, there is a kid

called sausage party from Kentucky, and he is, as my dad would say, queerer than a $3 bill, owning it, and he is literally threatening to rape these boys in the hotel room after he beats their ass. and we are all on his team. And I mean everybody, even the most read, people in the comments are like, dude, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think sausage party's going to whoop his ass. It is so fucking great. Unironically.

I mean, you can laugh at it and that's good, but like I genuinely, I have a show that night and I'm upset. I can't pay-per-view it. It's pay-per-view. And there's like 400 of them. Like, I don't know how many they're going to let fight, but I'm starting to think, Corey, that it's an op to get people on their child support. They're just going to invite 600 people to this.

fucking costs. There's no way they can have this many fucking fights. I mean, is that me and dad, is that just, me and dad just to have fights like that? You know what I mean? Like, you just put it in a bit together where it's like, hey, everybody just coming whoop each other's ass. So as long as it's not like... We've got a cover charge.

We're going to have fucking, you know, titter tots and barbecue and shit, it's going to be a whole thing. Each state would do it different. And they're having it in West Virginia. That can't be a coincidence. Yeah. Do you know what I'm saying? Like, if you were saying it's a official boxing thing, then the world boxing, whatever it's called, might be able to be like,

no, you can't do that. But you're just saying we're fighting. You can't own fighting. It's up to the state. It's a state tri-tress. Yeah, you try. You got to go through the athletic commission and shit, especially when they're pay-per-viewing them. But me and dad have like, we've bought several of these paper views, the ones that are called

rough and rowdy or whatever. And they do have a lot of fights on the card. And the reason they have to have a lot of fights on a card is because when two people who aren't professional fight each other, it's over and. 45 seconds. You know what I mean? So the funniest part, though, is not, I mean, dude, when you watch them fight, especially someone

who watches professional fighting, you're like, okay, this is the novelty of this war off as soon as they started missing a bunch of punches. But the funniest part is, is that after the fights, whoever won, they put the microphone in their face just like they do Nate Diaz, except

for these dudes literally can't breathe. They can't talk at all. And they're trying to smoke a cigarette and they got nothing and they'll just like halfway pass out sometimes. Right. Yeah. Okay. But let me say that rough and rowdy is to the UFC as redneck brawls is to rough and

roundy. Does that make sense? Sure. Yeah. Like rough and rowdy, it's like these people don't know how to fight. What am I trying to say? This is just decided on their promos. And it's not the most talented promo cutters that gets the weirdest or the dumbest.

They don't actually fight? No, they do fight. I'm saying that, so if you post a clip, I'm from West Virginia, and I'm challenging all the Kentucky people, 10 people are going to respond to you. Who you fight is based upon who responds and gets the most traction on the internet, because it's a promo situation, right?

And that's how they decide it. And, dude, the women are the funniest ones. It hands down every time. I ordered some fake tattoos. I'm going to try to cut some this weekend myself. I think I'm going to go to the angle of rejected ones. We can give that in a minute. Like ones they are like, yeah, we can't air that one.

But it is glorious and in every way. Like I unironically like it and I ironically like it. Yeah, it's great. You were talking about sausage party and my buddy James came over to my house this morning with his kid for a little bit. And right before he left, he showed me like 30 seconds of something that he said had blown up this week. If y'all seen it, it's speaking in Jason Aldine and shit.

It's like a Nashville country style super gay song. Yeah, yeah. It's about two weeks old. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like, like, talking about how you. Clapping cowboy cheeks and, yeah. Yeah, I loved the way he rides my wiener in the back of the truck and shit like that. But it's like, you know, it's like.

I can't believe you've gone this far without. Of course, you don't check your messages. I have been sent that 300 times. Oh, yeah, I probably have to. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. You definitely have been. Yeah, I haven't. You've been tagged in it probably.

Well, anyway, that's funny. Yeah, it's hilarious. Yeah. He's good, too. Like, that kid's been in Nashville trying to make it for a little while. He's got, you know, some chops. Yeah, I mean, is it just, is it like a wheeler situation? I don't know.

I didn't dive into it because I think I'm going to be a little disappointed either way. Do you know what I mean? Like, if it's like a legitimate, like, gay dude who has something to say and this is what he's resorted to to make it on TikTok, I won't blame him, but I'll be like, fuck. And if it's just a wheeler thing, I'll be like, damn, I really wish it was a gay dude out here doing this. Right. Earlier I was, I pulled my phone out and I got on Twitter because I was trying to find that thread we shared. our thread like a week or so ago about the children's day was that dude complaining about hick libs yeah i was trying to find that because i wanted i wanted to stir some shit back up i'm not gonna

lie i was a little bit offended and i never came up in that i sure i was me too i was i was reading through that and i know it's like it's you know i try to keep my ego more and check than this but i was reading through that and i was like i was kind of expecting me to get brought up at some point and get slaying yeah and i got a little upset when i're a jewish I was like, come on, really? This whole thing, you wrote pages and pages of shit about heck lives and you can't call

me queer? What the fuck? Right. I thought the same thing, dude, because it's like obviously you're not as famous as some of those people, but in the world of being a super queer Tennessee dude, like you're up there. All those people know all those people know me and I know them, you know.

I can't remember did he leave music? We're in the same queer circles. No, that's what I was hanging my hat on, Drew. Thank you. I was like, well, He only talked about music. If he had diverted for music, then maybe he would have called me queer. Well, he probably didn't divert from music because he doesn't even do that in his own life. I mean, that's the issue with comedy. But it was this dude.

It was just dipshit on Twitter. Bitching about all the heck lives. That's the word he kept using. Hick lives in country music. He was talking about Isbel, Sturgel, Tyler, Childers, Casey Musgraves. There's plenty more that he didn't even name that we know. You know what I mean? And just bitching about it.

and through the course of bitching about it, also trying to defend, like, Nashville, like Jason Aldean, but from a musical standpoint, like, I would argue that really Nashville country is far more subversive and experimental than, you know, he's like, you've got hip-hop elements, you've got all this, like, you know, trying to make like a scholastic musical argument in favor of Nashville country over that, over, like, Americana or whatever. And it was just...

Which is the one argument you can't make. I know. He was also claiming it was more representative of rural America. Right. And it was like, that doesn't hold way to either direction. Like you can't claim Jason Iswell's more representative or that Jason Aldeen is because, like, most people we know who live there either either either either. Do you know what I'm saying?

Like the dudes I grew up with, a lot of them, like, they only listen to rap. They don't give a fuck about any of that shit. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Well, it's also like I was going to say earlier about Childers, It's wild to me that children still gets any contra. Because it's like, it's not the first time he's done this. No.

He's done this a few times. And people get pissed off at him every time. And every time I'm like, what the, but like, it's because a lot of those, they still, they'll be like, well, this is a little queer, but they still, he still hits for them. Well, the reason why. So they'll keep listening to him. Same with like the truckers. Yeah.

Isbull, Sturge, all of them, you know. They can't help but like the music, you know. I do think the difference with Tyler and everyone else on that list is an age thing. You know, I took my nephews to a show where he was the headliner, because usually I see Tyler, like, at a festival or whatever. Dude, it's all 25-year-old frat dudes, and I think they just are having a harder time with it. I think the people who got mad at Sturge are like, God damn it, but I'm used to this shit. You know what I mean?

Yeah. And 25-year-olds are still mad. They're going to get mad at Tyler every time. And they thought, oh, Zach Brown was going to be their hero. And it turns out he also is a little bit of a hit clip. Well, that's right. Well, that was the other thing that was funny to me about that. that Twitter thread was it's like, there's a sort of implicit admission in there from this guy

that like everybody who hits is a liberal or whatever. Like he's just naming all the hit clips of music. And he's like, and he's like, you know, they're great. This person's great. They've had a lot of success. Yeah, right. I think that a lot of the Tyler specific heat has to do with right before this, he had released a gospel album. and I think that a lot of people

when he did that, they were like, okay. Oh, he's back in. He's us. Dude, the show I was at in Red Rocks, people were furious about that too. I mean, I'm not going to lie, that don't hit for me, but I mean, it's fine. I loved it, but I like gospel music. They were mad like,

we came here to drink beer and not, you know what I'm saying? I don't want to hear about the Lord, but, you know. Or queers. Neither of them hit for me. I want to fuck a girl's butt and not feel bad. about it.

And think about the devil. So there's somebody else. Earlier I was like, I don't know if I'm going to bring this up, but fuck it. I will. I'm not trying to throw him back into the bus. I don't know a lot about this kid. The new one, his name is Oliver Anthony. I had to look up his name.

He's going viral right now with a song called Richmond, North of Richmond. And it's a populous song. About Nova? About D. Yeah, yeah. Nova's like D.C. Whatever. I think it's meant to be about politicians.

Okay. And it's a very populist. type song. It's very much like pro working man and its themes. And he sounds like Tyler or Zach Bryan. He doesn't sound like Al Dean. He's from this new tradition or whatever we're calling it. But when you listen to it, the antagonist of the song is absolutely taxes. And there's a line in there about like fat people eating fudge rounds with my tax money. He says it only slightly more eloquently than that. I'm going to stream that

People have been sending it to me like Dude I know you're a Tyler fan What do you think of this guy And there's a part of me that's like Yeah whatever you know His music is good His voice is great Lyrics some of them are more interesting than others

There's a small part of me though It's like This is a little Somebody's threading a needle here They're really figuring it out It's a very like It's not like Fuck the government

Because they fuck us over And let the corporations win It's literally like Fuck the government because they took too much out of my check. And gave it to welfare queen. And drowned fat asses. And no assessment of,

you're not poor because the government took money out of your $35,000 a year check, dog. It's because you have a $35,000 a year job and the cost of living is skyrocketing. And you can blame the government for that, but it ain't your taxes. It's a plethora of other things. But now I sound like an academic trying to attack some old boys' song. I just can't believe they're landing on the wrong conclusion.

about that particular. But it's not Al Dean. That's the scary part. This dude is in the... Yeah, yeah, yeah, no. And his fans are too. He's already fooled a lot of them. I'm about saying, that's going to, like,

that's going to hit real hard, I imagine. It already is. Yeah, I'm about saying, because normally those people in that musical lane, they are, you know, queer like us or whatever. And a dude who's good at that, but is the other thing, I mean, he's going to make a shitload of money. So much money. And the government's going to take all of it.

Right. And either he very much is someone who kind of threads the needle, or he's brilliant, because the song is about nostalgia. Like the chorus is about, it's like, it's a new world. And I'm like, oh, yeah, you mean like how back in the day it was good for working class people. We all remember that. The only thing that people like that argue was better is like segregation in the gays not being able to be. Like, you know what I mean? You can't go back and find a time where anybody agrees it was better unless you're talking. about black people are gay people not having rights. Right. So, yeah. You said you wanted to fuck a butt and think about the devil, right?

Which reminded me. That was me. Oh, sorry. You said you wanted to fuck. I said the devil part. I thought Trey said the devil part and I was actually about to be like, actually it was not you, it was us. That was a tandem.

I thought it was a tandem with me and Trey and it would have been so funny. It reminded me, that reminded me of something I've been wanting to ask y'all. Okay. Like, do church people know super churchy people like do they realize how fucking rad they make the devil sound a lot of the times and if so why do they keep doing that like me and cori you know what i mean it's always like me and corey kicked a bit around that devil loves drugs and rock and roll with sucking dicks and fucking butts and all this shit and i feel like if you're a teenager you're like god damn devil's what's up right

and like they don't they don't realize that it comes off that way like we've discussed this before me on here yeah me and corey and maybe you kicked a bit around about it of like when the rock and roll guy comes to testify about the dangers. Oh yeah, I remember that story yeah but I'm talking about the devil. Yeah, yeah. Well, it's it's all the same. I guess that's the part where you not being, uh, washed in the blood of the lamb or missing. All that is. Well, I've actually, I've got something in my notes right now that's like kind of specifically about this that I may have talked to y'all about is like, I don't know if I would have ever had premarital sex, had the church not made it seem like the greatest fucking thing in the whole wide world.

Like they like, because you're right, like with the devil, they, it's like their opening pitch for the devils. They're like, all right, you know all this stuff that super hits, rock and roll, doing drugs, hanging out, seeing tities. And you're like, yeah, I do. And they're like, well, that, not that. Don't do that. Well, that's a doubt.

You know what I mean? Yeah. In that, like, many special I did about the Tennessee drag band, there's a story in there about when I went to protest the protesters and one of them little preachers, like 18 years old, got on the bullhard. and it's the reverse point where he's like the joke I make is like this dude sucks at his job actually no it's the same exact point

because he's making it sound shitty because I was talking about how he's like you get on that bullhorn he's like there's no butt sex in heaven and we all booed him and it's like when you get to heaven there won't be any partying there won't be any drugs and we were like fuck this shit dude yeah it sounds awful

but my question is like that guy like those people they genuinely don't don't realize that that sounds awful? So there's two types of people saying it. That's my question. So there's two types of people saying it, the ones who've never done it. Right.

And so they don't really know. And then people who did it to excess and God literally did save them because they was about to die inside a war. They're about to kill themselves and ruin their family and all that. And they think they are imparting that to you at 14. They genuinely believe they're making you understand how bad it is. Right. And your dipship parent is like, yep, sounds awful to me.

Yeah. Do you understand what I'm saying? Yeah, that does kind of make sense, actually. And for me, all I ever took away from that was like, oh, you can get saved at any time. May as well hit now. You know what I mean? Like all these dudes that are saying that, they got to, what did you say? He said that's a very corey takeaway.

I've ever heard. But I'm just saying, like, they're all, they get to live both lives. They get to do the party in the horns or whatever. And then one day when their body can't handle it, they get to give their life to Christ and still go to heaven. Well, I would like both, please. Are you wearing a Jesus shirt? I was literally about to be like, is that a Jesus shirt?

I'm glad that you said that. This is from our friends Chuck and Stacy over at Down South Home. You know, Chuck and Stacy, they have the, it's called Down South House and Home. They sell stuff. This says Jesus was woke as fuck.

They just sent it to me. So shout out to them. You can look at them on Instagram at Down South House. They got a whole bunch of merch and stuff. We threw a plug in there. Chuck, Well, you ask me about the shirt.

Is it Chuck Reese? Chuck Reese? Yeah, Chuck Reese and Stacy. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, well, I mean, that's who I thought Chuck and Stacy was. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then I was like, there could be another Chuck and Stacy. Yeah, well, I hope they're doing good.

Love them. Love the homies. Yeah, the shirt hits. It's fun. Like, if Jesus, so, if Jesus come back right, right now, right? Like, would they automatically know he was Jesus or, like, would they automatically know he was Jesus or like would he just be how Jesus actually purportedly was? Because if it's the latter, they're going to call him a huge queer.

If it's the former, we're all going to call him nuts, though. But if I'm Jesus. No, no, no, no, no. I mean, like, I don't know, I don't know. Emerges from the heavens type shit where everyone is like, oh, fuck, Jesus is back. Or, woo, woo, ooh, ooh, Jesus is back. Yeah, let's see aliens, dude. I mean, I guess I would go to aliens first over Jesus, even if it looked exactly like Jesus.

Mm-hmm. Well, I'm just saying like, you know, supposedly when... Maybe he was gray with yellow eyes. And they left that part out. But when Jesus comes back this time, though, if he do come back, this time is to take away all his children to heaven. So there will be a pretty big spectacle of it. You know what I mean? I don't think he's going to be hiding in plain sight.

It's going to be like, I'm here. And then, you know, half our memos are going to disappear. And then we're going to rock out with the devil for seven years. And then there's a huge wall. war. Yeah. Right. But,

okay. So, like, it's not coming back to, like, party. He's coming back to fuck shit up. What if COVID

was the rapture? Then it wasn't so bad. I can't believe my mama got it and didn't die then. Oh, that's right.

Dude, unless my mama gets raptured, the rapture ain't real. I was going to say, I was going to say, if COVID was rapture,

it proves a lot of not hitting stuff about the Lord and it basically proves all those people have been right this whole time to me.

Based on the people who died, you know, I'm like, if that was getting raptured, I'm like, fuck, dude. Lord don't hit. We're definitely going to hell. I hope the devil is cool. I just imagine a sketch with Larry David at the judgment day, and he's back there with his judgment lawyer.

And his lawyer's like, look, man, he's a huge fan of the show. He's going to let you in. You just have to be like, you're the Lord, and it's all cool. And Hayden Gays is cool, and all the stuff you did was cool. And Larry's like, I think I'd rather burn in hell forever. I can't do it. I can't do it. Yeah, yeah.

and then he gets in and he just pesteres the Lord about the Holocaust for like 2,000 years. Hitler's in there because he bought his way in. They should be a bit of mine. So I read, I was reading something that I wanted to bring up not related to any of this. It's just something I read. And I've seen it before, and I may have even brought it up before, and if I have, I'm sorry. But like, have you ever read about or, like, thought about the fact that, human beings

like early on in our evolution or early on in our life as homo sapiens or whatever way back in the hunter-gatherer times whatever human beings are like basically terminators and how fucking absolutely terrifying

we had to be to every other animal pretty much the ones that we hunt and you except I mean you know animals are too dumb to even feel fair obviously I think we all know that but no that's not true but think about but they can't like process it Right, but still, like, you watch horror movies when you're a kid, and a lot of the villains in horror movies like Jason or whoever, they're just like very slow but always coming.

And relentless. And at a certain point, usually you're like, this is stupid. Why doesn't he run? Why is he so slow? But like, that's kind of how we actually are. Yeah. Because, like, human beings are the best, I'm not. None of us are. but human beings are the best distance runners in all of the animal kingdom. No other creature on earth can outrun us. They can run faster than us, but no other creature can run longer than we can.

I did not know that. So it's true. Not just the Kenyans. I didn't either. It's not like Kenyans, Cheetahs, the rest of us? I'm sure. Well, definitely not cheetahs. Definitely not cheetahs because they're the opposite.

They're the opposite. They're fast with low endurance. But it's true. Like evolutionary. Forces? I do but horses are like the closest because and actually us and horses are like the only two

things that sweat and that's why what yes I'm real proud of myself for thinking of horses and it being close sweating is for endurance running because we ride horses right because they're so endurable but they got to stop these animals are much faster enough so they get

away but then they tire out and they lay down and they look back and on the horizon we're fucking still coming and like that can happen for days. As long as we got food and water. But eventually, we will catch and eat your ass, right? Even a horse. And there's no getting away from us. Like, it's wild to think about how intense that's got to be. So intense. Yeah. Like, and, you know, it's just, I mean, you know, that's why we apex that and, like that. Dad and, like the thumbs and brains and shit, obviously. We're like the void.

Yeah, can't get away from it. No matter how hard you try. No matter how fast you get in shape, sober, you just can't fucking avoid the void. The void. is always right there, right nipping at your heels. I wonder if that's where a void comes from. I'm trying to avoid this. Probably not. Let's move on. Let's not think about how dumb that suggestion was.

I am so shocked that we can catch horses over days. I believe you and I understand how it works. It's like that's the closest. Like that's the animal that can get the furthest away from us. But if we have food and water and they have food and water, we will catch them. But yeah, I mean, how long is a marathon 13.5 miles or something? That's a half marathon. It's 21.6, 22.6.

Who was that kid you did a commercial with, or maybe two in Knoxville, Ben something? He did stand up sometime? Ben Dangara. His name is not that weird. I don't know why. I don't know why. I don't know why about his name that weird. He's white.

He was allowed to do that. He's a white guy for the record. Maybe. Ben Dungera? I think that's right. Dengara. He had this great joke. Ben Dangara.

I don't know why I did that. Oh, Bing Dandara. He's a white dude. Stop. Corey. Corey got jealous that you did it last week. But I did it last week. Yeah, I got away with it.

He's been sitting on that for days. Yeah. He had this joke, though. I swear this is related. He had this joke that I love. He was a big runner, super fit guy. And he said, I'm only up to half marathons. I've been training, but so far I can only get my head halfway up my own ass.

And I really liked that joke. I always liked Ben because he was like, he was like kind of ripped and in shape and he did shit like that, but he was super self-aware about it and made fun of it and stuff. But yeah. He was also like successful, but not like in a way that was like in a creative feel. But wasn't like real douchey about it. Right. At that time, he was absolutely doing better than all of us in terms of making money

from creative. Not even close. Those marathon runners, man, they blow my mind because like, you all know I'm an avid walker and every day, every day I do a big distance walking and I throw in stretches of jogging throughout it. Like, but when I say straight, I mean, like, I'll jog for 10 minutes and then go back to walking. And when I first started doing this, I thought, oh, man, I bet you all end up working.

my way up to distance running and stuff. And after three years, like, and again, I've taken, I've taken 3.5 million steps since December of last year. I've done, I think that's like 1,600 miles. And not at one point if I thought, could I do this marathon shit. What'd you say? You got like a stats card. It's very funny that you know all that.

I do, but dude, you know what's crazy? It's called, it's called a P-Dometer. Yeah. Yeah. And I would say, put a pedophiles out in the woods doing that. If it was me, I'd go with pedometer,

which, uh, yeah. Well, yeah, which I think maybe what it is. So, yeah.

It just looks like when I look down at it on my phone, it looks like the app that Pap Paul Batman would have, you know, in order to track down these motherfuckers. But yeah, I do have a, I do have my stats and stuff. Keeps up with how much you walk in the woods.

I mean, I think that checks out. But let me ask you, and I'm, this is going to sound shittier than I mean for it, too. I promise. I'm so happy. You did it.

Like, you thought that, like, if you just kept walking every day, eventually you'd be running marathons or whatever? No, no, no. I thought that eventually that would be the next step I wanted to take. Oh, okay. I didn't think that I would. You thought you desire to do it, but you never wanted to. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, because, again, because when I first started, I was exclusively walking, and that's how I lost the 50 pounds.

And then I slowly started incorporating some jogging. And that, you know, my normal stretch is like, walk for, 45 minutes, jog for 10, and then keep that up. But then sometimes I will go on like a way, like I'm in pretty good shape. I can take off jogging and jog for 45 minutes without my side hurting now. Like I've gotten there. What about your knees, dog? Do what?

Yeah. What about your knees? Do your knees not hurt? Dude, they ain't never hit. But I do have, I have orthopedics that help me with that. But no, I mean, my knees done shot. Because I play basketball, my lungs don't get tired. I can't run for more than 20 minutes because of pain.

The thing that's... That's blowing my mind. Well, the thing that's pissed me off the most of the road. I don't run on concrete. Also, 45 minutes, dude, that's like a long time. It is. You're closer than you think. You started this out like, I can't imagine running a marathon.

You're not close, but like... Well, I'm about saying a marathon is like hours doing that. Yeah, dude. Sure, but 45 minutes is a ridiculous amount of time. That's like in good shape. So it's not a long run. I mean, it's not a fast run. It's just like, you know, a little bit more...

Here's the thing. Here's the thing, and I've bitched about this to y'all before, but I don't think I've done it on here. What pisses me off about all of that? It's like, so, like, I can ride a bike hard and fast for a really long time. I mean, for, like, easily an hour or whatever and just, and keep going. But I couldn't jog for, I mean, literally probably even five minutes. And that shit kills me. Or, like, I go up a few.

Is it your lungs? What is it? I go up a few flights of stairs. and I'm winded. But like I can ride a bike. Me too. I think it's not. I think it's a heart rate thing.

The things don't translate. My heart rate is like incredible. What I'm saying is I don't think you're used to having it really high. You're so in shape on the bike. It's only probably getting up to like 130, 140. And when you're running, it's spiking to like 180 because you're not used to it. That's what I'm saying. You've got to push through that.

Dude, it would take you a week. Because like it just doesn't, the shit don't just translate automatically. No, it doesn't. Well, that's bullshit, man. It's bullshit. That ain't right. It is bullshit. It's not, it ought not be that way.

Well, there's a part of your brain. It's like if you want to hit it running up steps, you've got to run up steps. It don't matter how much you run flat or ride a bike or whatever. And it's like, fuck that. There's a part of your brain that you have to train this shut off, but you have to train it to shut off in every type of exercise you do. That is literally sending signals going, we're running out of food. We don't, we don't have the actual energy to do this, and I don't want to burn the fat. And then when you train your body to, like, ignore that while you play basketball.

that's the part that's not translating when you go for a run. Same with the bike ride. You've trained your brain to be like, wow, we can do this. Ignore that signal. It's not going to ignore it with everything. You've got to keep changing it up. Right.

Yeah, it's like I did like, I don't know what to call it, plyometric type shit. Like cardio where you're in a room jumping around. You know what I mean? You're doing lunges and shit. No, not parkour.

You know what I'm talking about. Like CrossFit or? H-A-I-C. Yeah, Plyometrics. Yeah, right. That type of shit, yeah. Hell yeah, dude. So, thank you, Aaron.

Oh, thank you, Aaron. Aaron from fucking bank shot from the corner. I tried, Pelotone's got some of those. I tried one in a hotel once because I didn't have my shoes with me. I only had sandals. Couldn't go to the gyms. I tried one of those, and I was like, Jesus, fuck.

I did like eight minutes. I wanted to die. That's legitimately harder, though. But I then just kept doing those, and now I can do, like, a 20- or 30-minute one of those and like get through it and it's, you know, it's fine. Same with like the strength classes, whatever. I mean, you're right.

You do like pick it up quickly-ish, but... For the record, though, those are much harder. But fuck running, specifically. Fuck it. That takes more energy and effort than biking and running. Yeah, it's right. That was harder because it was harder. It wasn't like, why it's not translating.

You weren't ready for that shit. Yeah, right. Dude, I... Did I... Guy made me puke a couple weeks ago. But, dude, running don't hit at all in my... It hurts. Like, it just sucks.

It's boring. Yeah, right. I do it in the woods, and it rains a lot, so it's kind of soft mud, so it don't hurt me as bad. And it's kind of cool seeing different terrain. But have I ever told you all the story of my dad on a bicycle? No, but it's hard for me to imagine. Did he run over the mayor? Do what?

Did he run over the mayor? No, no, dude. I wish that would have hit. So dad, dad is like me, very dumb, but very confident, right? And so, dad, my dad is a heavier guy. My dad is a heavier guy. But once every three or four years, dad is like, okay, enough of being a heavy guy. And when dad wants to, he can lose a tremendous amount of weight really fast because he gets like zoned in on something.

He's like, this is what I'm going to do. So another way me and my dad are like. So anyways, dad weigh, at this time, dad weighs like 350 pounds. And he's like, you know how I'm going to lose the weight? biking. And we're like, oh, that's cool. Dad, go to the park, ride a bike. dad goes and gets this bike and he in his brain he's like i got to get whatever the one lance armstrong has

that's one i got to fucking get so that's wild i bet he sold a lot of bikes lance armstrong now i think because oh yeah because there's so many people they don't know anything at all about bikes or biking except for lance armstrong you know so i bet a lot of people did that for sure so the dude's telling him he's like he's like yeah this is one good if you're going off road and this is one good if you're on the you know bike track or whatever and he's like and these over here this is the one that's the that your feet actually screw into the pedals so you can't, so you can't take your feet out. He's like, that's for more advanced people.

And my dad's like, oh, I'm advanced. I know I want that. That's what I want, right? And your dad's, your dad's standing there at like 54 years old and 260 pounds or whatever. 350. Oh, damn. Okay. Yeah.

So, yes, standing there like, I'm an advanced cyclist. You know, and the dude was like, okay, sure. But I'll sell it to you. If you want to give me the money for it, fuck it. It's also just proof that no matter how old you are, there's still an old that you feel. And my dad in his brain, like, he was an athlete when he was a kid. He played college ball. So he's like, no, I can, what are you talking about?

I can do this. So he gets this shit home, and my mom is like, Dale, you cannot be on something that you can't take your motherfucking feet out of. Do you understand how stupid this is? You haven't ridden a bike in 10 goddamn years. And he's like, oh, you don't know shit. I've got balanced. And I'm a damn.

Whatever. Great impersonations. Two for two. You sound just like them. You win two for two. Yeah. Yeah. So,

you clip in on a peloton, but that's a stationary bike. But it does, but it does. I mean, it'd be real hard to fall off. I mean, yeah.

But like I'm just saying, it does hit though. Like, you know, I get why. Yeah. I get why people did, because you can like pull up.

Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying? In addition to pushing down. But again, it's a stationary bike. I wouldn't do that on a street bike. No. Because if,

because if you're like that on a regular bike when you stop, you got to like catch a wall or some shit. You know what I mean? Yeah. So anyway, this is like doing drugs with somebody who's good at drugs. It hits for them to do that amount of drugs. Although I will say, do you know, because that means you can't ever stop. Anytime you stop, you got to put your foot down, just like on a motorcycle or whatever.

So, so on a Peloton, you clip in, but you just, you flip your foot to the side and it pops right out. Are these bikes like that too? Well, you got to get somebody else, so you got to have a pit crew? That's what I'm saying like, sure. Because if it's like that, because if it's like that, that's really not that bad. I wouldn't think. Like, you know. Yeah.

You just get used to the motion. You just twist your foot and it pops up. Well, here's soon. Let's find out what happened to deal. Here's the thing. I'm certain that that's the case and I'm certain that the person who sold it to my dad explained it to him. But I'm also certain that my dad was watching a Joe Rogan clip on his phone when that guy was explaining that shit. Okay.

So dad leaves for his first bike ride. 15 minutes later, he calls my mom. And she's like, when he's clearly out of breath, he's clearly out of breath, she's like, what are you doing? He's like, you got to come get me. And she's like, where are you at? And he's like, I'm on Osborne Road. And she's like, where at on Osmond Road?

He's like, you'll see me. He's just laying on the side road, like, in a ditch. Dad's in a ditch flipped over. He cannot get off the bicycle at all. And when mom finds him, he's laid on his side pouring a big slam. mountain dew into his mouth that he had held on to as he ran.

That's more athletic than anything Lance Armstrong's ever done. To keep the mountain dew right there? Holy shit. And that bike is sitting in his garage and that's the last time that motherfucker ever got rode. First and last. Yeah.

Damn, that's wild. You should get him a recumbent. My father-in-law got a recumbent after he flipped over the handlebars on his bike and got a concussion. I need to get him a defibrillator. It's what I need to get his ass. Corey, I got to go. You guys can keep going if you want or you can sing us out.
