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. So cancel your unwanted
subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money. Go to RocketMoney.com

They're the...
This episode is brought to you by the new book, Round Here and Over Yonder, written by
author's Trey Crowder and Corey Ryan Forrester.
That's ya boy. The book is out now.
I would like to thank everyone who did the pre-order.
but for those of you who were like, you know what, I want to wait and actually go to a bookstore and pick this thing up.
Well, you can do that right now, round here and over yonder, a front porch travel guide written by two progressive hillbillies, parenthetical.
Yes, that's a thing.
We love long titles, but we love making you laugh even more.
This book is Chock-Fill.
Chocked-Fill.
Chock-full of jokes.
We chalk-filled it, too.
It's got a bunch of jokes in it.
It's really, really, really fun.
We tried to take the stereotypes of certain regions.
talk about what they are, talk about what they got right, talk about what the actual reality is.
Of course, we did it with our own little region here in the South.
We went everywhere else in the United States, and for the first time in our lives, we went to the UK.
It's Rednecks Abroad.
The book is round here and over yonder.
Not to brag on us, but I will.
It is hilarious.
Pick it up now wherever you get books.
And by the way, we narrated the audio version, if that's how you want to digest it.
But there is no wrong way.
round here and over yonder wherever you get you books do it at an indie bookstore here we are here we are drew
i must say yeah off the top okay for those of you who only experiencing this through audio drew
looks like you've never not looked like a redneck to me but you look like a very specific like
you look like you just got back from vietnam yeah and it's really hitting for me i got my tony camel hat
Shout out, TK. Our boy.
Nice as cool as hottest guy in the world.
But it does look like if you, it looks like if you zoom in, my hat's going to actually say you weren't there.
And it's the wife Peter's doing a lot of the heavy lifting as it always does.
I have that same hat and it's, this is how much color matters.
I have that same hat, but it's in white, which I love it.
But I look like a frat boy golfer when I'm wearing it.
And yeah, you look like somebody who like is going to look directly through me at.
the food line.
That's the you weren't their eyes.
You kids ever seen Tanner, right?
Yeah, so I was at the gym and then I had my clothes.
And long story short, this is the only clean shirt I could change into without going home and I didn't have time to.
But I like cotton undershirts that aren't ribbed.
So I never wear ribbed wife beaters.
And I do feel like, okay, if I were skinnier or hotter or.
just didn't look like a redneck.
I think this is less of a redneck shirt.
Agreed.
You're like Adam,
you're Adam Devine,
or you're Maroon 5 then.
But on a redneck,
the unripped,
it just looks like you put a regular t-shirt on
and the sleeves melted off.
Yep.
Like you had a receding shirt line.
It doesn't look like something you bought that way.
That's for sure.
No.
Honestly,
that's what you would say about me
as like if there was a husband's
store, Andy would be like, well, he wouldn't like this when we bought him.
Yeah, also, too, a lot of it has to do with, you definitely got a haircut recently.
So, like, your facial hair and your haircut both looked like three months ago.
It was all buzzed down and you've just been home.
You know what I mean?
You're letting it all hang out.
Yeah, this is my first chance that I've had to let it out.
Can I show you what I think you look a little bit like?
Oh, yes.
That's the voice of producer Aaron.
Yo, dude, he's got a better hairline than me.
Michael Rappaport on Justified.
I was best to say, Drew, aren't you just...
Are you rewatching justified right now?
It's not a rewatch for me.
Andy and then I started it, and then life happened, and we never went back to it.
So I don't even know what Rappaport's character is.
Don't tell me anything about it.
I find him to be unbearable on social media, but I've always liked him in stuff.
Okay.
Well, I won't say anything except for...
Imagine Michael Rappaport playing a redneck from...
Florida. There you go. You got it. Thank God
is from Florida, so I don't have to hear him attempt
to do a Kentucky accent.
Because that would be the funny.
It would be funny. It would be
one of those things where a clip would be hilarious.
Yeah. The show would be unwatchable.
That's actually a great point.
Like, if you ever have someone
that's not from the South playing a Redneck
character, you can get out of a lot
of shit by just saying they're from Florida.
You know what I mean? Because, like, none of us know what that
accent is, it could be anything.
Yeah, and it's got, there's like, there's a few Florida accents, too.
That's the other great thing about it.
And if you live in Florida, you might be able to be like, why is this guy saying
like he's from Lakeland, but they're saying he lives in the swamp.
Right, as long as you don't mention a city, if you just say Florida, then like you can
carte blanche.
I agree.
I feel like if you're from Florida, you know.
Like, the way he looks in that, he should sound like he's from the swamp.
Although, I don't know.
You know what, Aaron?
Can you pull it back up, please?
for those of you who are only listening,
I guess I'm sorry because we did start out as an audio podcast,
but you should try every once in a while to view us on YouTube
because really this is a show now.
It's not even a podcast.
This is a live show.
By the way, Trey's not here,
and I wasn't going to address it,
but then I just realized I should because we're talking about it as a show.
But you guys literally, and I may have told you all this on air,
but maybe not.
I've listened back
when I'm not here
for one purpose
and one purpose only
I'll listen
until they acknowledge
that I'm not there
I've made it through
entire shows before
which
that's on purpose
which remind me
no it's not
which remind me
no it isn't
no it is
it's on purpose
to see how long it takes
people to figure it out
you are a good liar
Trey's not
and there's been times
where y'all have thought of it
at like minute 48,
and he is not faking it.
He's going, oh, shit, yeah.
He's not good enough to do that if it was on purpose.
Remind me when he gets here to read something to you guys.
Speaking of the podcast, being watched,
and speaking of me and wife beaters.
Okay, yeah.
Trey's going to be here soon, everybody.
My baby's late.
Oh, yeah, okay.
We've got Rappaport.
There's literally a fanboat behind him.
By the way, everybody,
I like how he refused.
For producer Aaron,
I'm so glad you're here
because we didn't have a picture element to this,
but I'm so,
so glad.
And you've just opened up a can of worms
because we are going to be shouting things
at you from now on to throw on the screen.
I like how he refused,
Rapaport or not, producer,
Aaron.
I like how he refused to change his Guido hair,
which is Florida,
but again it's
it's south of Orlando
Florida
it's like boats and muscle
Florida right
and then he's like
he's got that 90s arm wristband
the leather strap
which we've talked about numerous times
on here before how back in the day
in the 2000s I wanted one of those
but I hated everyone who'd ever worn one so I refused
to do it
there's just something about how he looks so
fucking Italian even dress he's
he's uh he's uh Larry the
uh don't worry about it guy
Hey.
Larry the I know a guy.
Yeah, that's such a southern thing or that's such a jersey thing, the I know a guy.
Yeah, I know.
Down here, down here, if somebody needs help, we go, oh man, my buddy, and then we explain his things.
But up there, they don't even explain.
They're just like, yeah, I know a guy.
Like if your sink fucks up, they'll go, don't worry about it.
I know a guy.
And you're like, oh, you know a plumber?
Nah.
But I got a guy.
Don't worry about it.
I got a guy.
Got a guy for that.
Hey, before Trey gets here and we talk about all that, maybe you knew this, but I didn't, or at least until recently, did you know that, because you were talking about basketball earlier, did you know that John Tash wrote the NBA theme music?
I did.
Did you see, have you seen that clip of how he, like, did it?
Oh, no, I don't know about that.
Dude, this was great.
So, John Tash was at, I mean, in the clip, it looks like.
Like, Corey is a John Tash fan.
Like, the way that someone.
Some people are Randy Newman fans, which Corey is also a Randy Newman fan.
The way that some people are, like, there's these obscure kind of older artists, and they all make sense.
Randy Newman, I'm like, okay, you're 15 and you love Randy Newman, but he writes show tunes.
I get it.
Like, you found one song, and you're like, there's nothing like this.
How do you become a John Tesh fan?
I think it was a lot of my mom.
Like, he was the guy that he was a guy that he just kind of owned in the background, because he's also had like a morning show.
he had a morning show
okay how did he get it why did he have a morning show
why do we know anything about john tess
is like healing back to onions like i didn't know any of this
like he was a great commercial
songwriter i guess and he's just
he's one of those like name
one guy that's true of and we know their name
oh i have no idea
i'm saying what i think is true
yeah barry manelow wrote
commercial jingles and and that launched
both of them
i don't know
I'm just saying that John Tesh is a very vanilla women from the Midwest.
The target demos for some of these morning shows are just like,
like that's a rock star that they feel safe with.
John Tesh was the,
he was the co-host of Entertainment Tonight with Mary Hart.
There you go.
Yes, that was it.
For decades, yeah.
Back in the day during like the Seinfeld must-see TV Thursday,
he was the guy on entertainment tonight.
So he was popular along with his music.
And now he does like a morning show that I catch pieces of from time to time.
Is this a situation then where,
someone is like
is a Ryan Seacrest type
and they just so happen
to be able to write music?
I think so.
Or did the music lead to this gig?
No,
the music led to the gig.
So how, like what was his career?
Did he put out songs?
Did he have hits?
Yeah, he definitely had hits
like on soft rock radio and stuff, you know?
But I think that he's also doing jingles
because like,
so in this clip that I see,
he's, it looks like he's in like Carnegie Hall or something.
He's wearing tails.
Like, it's a very,
very professional looking orchestra type thing.
And he starts explaining to the audience that he had actually come up with the jingle
for NBA tonight or whatever.
And he was talking about how he came up.
They wanted him to do it and he came up with it while he was on the road and he
didn't have any of his instruments.
So he just called his voicemail and just hummed all the things that he thought it would
be.
And he played the he played the voicemail on stage.
Like he put his microphone up to his actual old answering machine.
And it literally goes,
this is John Tesh calling for John Tesh.
This is how I think this is how I think this song should go.
And he just goes,
and then the audience goes crazy.
And then the audience goes crazy.
And he just all of a sudden,
he looks back,
he flips his fingers at the drummer.
He starts going,
do, do, do, do.
John Tesh starts pretending like the bass kick is a basketball.
John Tesh is just up there, like,
pretending like he's playing basketball.
Then he hits the piano.
and the whole crowd went fucking crazy.
And that's how I found out that he did that.
Well, goddamn.
He was a news host first.
I got to put some respect on John Tash's name.
So he was a news host who dabbled in music.
Oh, I didn't know that.
That's kind of wild.
It is wild.
To be, I think the most popular example is a Ryan Seacrest type.
Sure, you can't go.
I would say is equally as popular.
Mark McGrath's a musician.
I know, but he also does the entertainment tonight stuff now.
But that's my point.
Mark McGrath had hits.
And then they were like, hey, people recognize your fucking face,
guy who looks like Diari went on a diet,
you can have a job.
And I'm trying to figure out with Tesh how he parlayed this I play,
but da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dha.
Into a TV career, it sounds like it was the other way around.
It sounds like a host who was working his way up in the host
game, which is a career, just also dabbled in organ music.
Yeah, and so much to the fact that I am, I'm kind of bugged out right now to find out that
that was his secondary thing.
Like, I totally thought it was John Tesh had a bunch of soft rock hits in the 80s and 90s,
and then they were like, hey, you'd be good for television because you're blonde and you're handsome.
I did too, but I always kind of wondered like, man, how do you do that?
How do he parlay
me not knowing anything about his music?
Because I knew about his music, but I know about his music now.
Because now I know he does it.
Now he's famous and he tours.
But it's like, yeah, what's the beginning of this?
What's the origin story of one John Tesh?
And I think he just like formed at the Iowa State Fair
as a full adult hosting the Weather Channel.
No, I feel you.
And it's like two with like, okay, Dave Letterman's a different example
because like, you know, he was a weatherman,
then became a comedian.
but you know that he probably always wanted to be a comedian,
but he's like, I'm from Indiana, I'll be a weatherman, and then work on it.
Then you think about dudes like, like Pat Sejack almost had the Tonight Show.
Like Pat Sejack almost had the Tonight Show.
And with game show dudes, game, like I had the opportunity almost to host a game show.
I got to write it and it was about to be a thing and then COVID happened.
But I was already doing other forms of entertainment.
But there's some dudes like Pat Sejack, you're like, did this guy just like decide
Like who the fuck goes, I'm going to be a game show host?
I'm glad there are them, but like...
Usually actors, I think, right?
Or is it comics?
Maybe, but you know, Sejac did stand up.
Yeah, I mean, that makes sense.
Like, to me that makes sense.
It does now, but I found that out way later.
Some people freak out when they found out Mike Roe was an actor, and I'm like, what did
what do you think he had been doing?
Right.
But that's to me what makes Tesh wild, and it's like, he's one of them dudes.
And then also, that's a composer, dog.
That's not a, like, you know, Bruce Willis has a rock band and it's terrible.
That's a composer.
Yeah, it's crazy.
What do we found out?
Do you now understand why John Tesh hits for me?
The man contains multitudes.
No, I still don't get it.
Like, this is, I can't let go of why does he hit because this is my point.
I just don't understand how this happens, how the weatherman becomes the NBA
songwriter and then sells out
this is the part that bugs me out and then sells
out theaters. With what?
Are chicks really just out there like
throw in their panties?
Moms. Moms and they're throwing their
girdles, yes. Well, grandmas now. I mean,
they were moms when we were in college.
No, dude, I mean,
I don't get it either. And like for the record
like, dude, I have never once.
Of course not. I'm saying
how's he selling these tickets?
Yeah, and all of this
John Tesh hits for Corey happened because, hey,
John Tesh does hit for me.
But it was just like,
I had one day I remember we were on the road or something.
I was listening to John Tesh this morning.
And it was just because like there was something I listened to.
Maybe it was serious that he had a little morning segment in.
And so it's not like,
dude,
I don't think I've ever intentionally like played a John Tesh song.
I am a huge.
There's so many people that I'm a huge fan of just because they were on when I was a kid.
And now when I see them,
it's like this big nostalgia thing.
Like, dude,
I don't think that I ever was like,
I can't wait to watch Oprah with my mom.
I get that.
But if Oprah had an album, it would be an embarrassment for her at this point in her career.
Like, I'm not surprised people like John Tesh and they're comfortable with John Tesh and that he's a good host.
I'm saying, and then he just started putting out records and people were like, yeah, we'll go see it.
And then he just was good at it.
That's like, that's admirable.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.
Well, it is admirable.
And I do think he hits, but it is not so possible.
of comedy.
Trey Crowder.
Hey, hey, everybody.
Fancy.
Oh, shit.
I meant to hit the applause.
That's on me.
Yeah, but also,
you got to understand
when he rose to prominence,
I think it was like
the late 80s, early 90s,
and if you were a charming
white man with any modicum
of talent, you had a shot.
I get how John Tesh ended up
having a career as a host.
I'm saying that it's wild
that he's also this talented
as a composer and that I don't get
how he then sells out
concert halls. Did you know that John Tesh
was known as a host before he was ever known
as a musician. He didn't parlay musicianship
into being a TV guy. No, I didn't know
that. I thought it was the opposite. I thought it was
because they used to do that.
Johnny Cash had a variety show.
Dina Shore. Johnny Cash, Mark McGrath.
Donna Shore. Oh, dude, he keeps pushing
Mark McGrath. Hang on, so
Dina Shore
Golden Era. Which, by the way,
I literally thought was a place stars
hung out. Like I would hear that name.
The Dina Shore.
It makes sense.
But she's from fucking Winchester, Tennessee.
You ever been to Winchester?
Yeah, I had an ant from there.
It's redneck as fuck food.
It's right by the rural white trash.
Jack Daniels, right?
It's close to Manchester.
It is.
Yeah, it's close to Manchester, but it's on the east side, I think, whereas Lynchburg's
on the other side of it, Anna.
You're talking about the interstate?
I drive through Winchester to get to Nashville when I'm coming, or Oxville.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Anyway, that just blew my mind when I got it, because I went there once for the first time,
literally as part of a documentary crew about pills, right?
Yeah, sure.
And I'm sitting there and I see like Dinashore Boulevard,
like downtown of Winchester.
And I was like, that's weird.
That's weird that Winchester latched on to Dinah Shores because I knew who Dinah Shore was.
But then I googled it and she's from there.
And I just like, I didn't know that ever happened back then.
She had to be like a, was she like a Southern Bell, like a debutante, like from old money?
Because like people wasn't making it out of Winchester in the fucking 40s or whatever.
We're not women especially.
There were a lot of old.
old money types in that area because are you familiar with bail buckle Tennessee?
I've heard of it.
And the fact that it has one of the oldest all boys private schools in the United States of America.
Like I had a guy who came from like Brazilian old money who had citizenship in both countries who
worked with me as an attorney in Miami.
And he was like, oh yeah, I went to high school in Tennessee.
And he showed me.
He was like, bail buckle.
And I was like, I've never heard of this play.
It's older than Swanee.
They play against Swanee.
Like in the same.
Yeah, right.
It's that part of Tennessee that's more like Alabama in many ways.
So I bet you're on some.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, I thought that was wild.
But what?
Mark McGrath, and I just, apparently there's a legendary Internet video that I wasn't aware of until very recently.
And I don't know if y'all are aware of it.
Bruce using all them slurs.
Like, he flips out on a young fan because that fan calls him sugar gay.
Yeah.
It's not even clever
I know it's like a teenager who has like shit
he wants him to sign by the way so that part's funny too
he's like got like posters or something
and he's like hey sugar gay right
and McGrath like loses his fucking mind over it
so I don't know
that's just that's what I think of when I think of Mark McGrath
now I think sugar gay and him flipping the fuck out
I think of how and this is we've done this before
don't you talk about sugar like that
I think about how Mark McGrath is...
Sugar, not gay, sugar good.
The artist of the 2000s.
And I'm not saying he's the best.
I'm not saying it.
But like, he is the most honest representation of that era.
And some of him lyrics, dude, I fuck with some of them lyrics.
Dude, every morning there's a halo on the corner of my girlfriend's four post bed.
It was a perfect way to say that because as a kid, my mom was like, he don't know that that's a condom.
So, like, we can still vibe out to this.
You know what I mean?
When I found out that,
A condom blew my mind.
All across the world,
statues crumbled for me.
Great.
What a fucking line, dude.
Yeah, you're right.
I'm not going to lie,
I was today years old when I realized that's a condom.
Yeah.
Dude, he contains,
he contains multitudes,
much like John Tesh.
But also,
more,
like,
appropriately,
yeah.
Oh,
fat boy drunk,
rest in peace,
it just died from a smash mouth.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Because also.
That was his name, Fat Boy Drunk.
Yeah, Fat Boy Slam.
He had the Fat Boy Slam started out together.
Yeah.
And then he went to the Sky Fun.
They were like, that's how Red Bull Viker got in.
Yeah, exactly.
Fat Boy Slim was like, listen, you can't be Fat Boy drunk if we're not going to be a crew anymore.
And that's what he's.
Imagine Bad Boy Slam like carrying a Red Bull and him carrying vodka.
And they bump into each other and they mix.
And that's how Red Bull Vodka's got him been.
Fat Boy Slam and Fat Boy Drunk.
That's so funny.
Anyway
Is it like Steve or something right?
Who gives a fuck?
He's Bat Boy drunk forever.
Steve.
Rest and peace.
Bat boy drunk.
Thank you, Aaron.
Steve Harwell.
Steve Harwell.
FBD.
RIPB.
Appreciate it.
Anyway, like.
Aaron's been on fire today.
Yeah.
Yeah, he's crushing it.
Good.
Glad to hear it.
He, but you, like, Smash Mouth was like that, right?
Like, one of those songs, one of their famous,
songs it's like about
global warming or whatever. Yeah, right.
And like the nihilism of
our culture not giving a fuck about it.
Right. Yeah. Which is funny because people just think
of... Astro Lounge was a great album.
He had a line beard. People don't respect it. Just like fucking Sugar
Ray had the spiky Gaffieri thing going on.
I was about to say, and you know what?
Both of them, Sugar Ray and
Fat Boy drunk are two
separate types of version of
Guy Fietti. Both of them.
That's funny. You're right. If you can
buying, yeah, sugar-ro-
Mark McGrath and him
and fat boy drunk, you get Guy Fieri.
We figured out who
Q is on this show and we figured out
Fat Boy drunk.
Dude, what if Guy Fierry was furious
that he didn't get to be Fat Boy drunk?
Like, that's my fucking name, dude.
He's fat boy
show, I guess, is what his thing is.
But yeah, yeah.
He's Fat Boy Kind.
But also... Astro Lounge, which is what that album came off of,
I'm pretty sure, because I had it.
That was a good album.
Smash Mouth was a good band.
Litt was a good man.
They had All-Star, which was like, it seemed like they were going to be a one-hit wonder,
but like the amount of money that they probably made doing that cover for the fucking Shrek movie.
Oh, dude.
Smash Mountain was relevant way longer than you'd think they would have been.
Because of that.
Because of that.
So first of, so.
He didn't die poor.
He, as far as Mark McGrath goes, he also has a legendary video of him losing it on people,
but it's because they're throwing bread at the stage.
Right.
Fat boy drunk got bread thrown out of it.
They were throwing bread?
Yeah, yeah.
Because apparently the show was sponsored by like Wonderbread.
It's like, smash mouth, brought you by Wonder Bread, you know, or something like that.
And because Wonder Bread's like, well, we can't give out beer.
We're not Wonder Beer, you know.
So they gave out, just they gave people bread, right, at a concert.
And people are like, I don't know what I'm supposed to do with this bread.
I'm going to throw it at Fat Boy Drunk, right?
And so they did, and he flipped the fuck out.
And, like, y'all never saw that video either?
That one was more recent.
That was like three or four years ago.
I've seen it, but I only saw the him flipping out part.
The first bread tosser.
He's flipping the fuck out while the band just keeps, like, looping the intro to All Star in the back.
You can just see him sitting there just like, fucking God damn.
Now, here goes Steve again.
Steve's mad about the bread.
And Steve's up there, like, I'll rip your fucking heads off and shove it down your fucking throat.
you fall the few out of there back there and just like,
hey, you know.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Oh, life is absurd.
What's that?
What's that from?
Life is absurd.
No, it's life is unfair.
What's that?
I don't know, dude.
I like this 2000s rock thing.
Well, this is from that same era.
I like Liz.
Yeah.
Let's do that.
Was it ever clear?
Was it ever clear?
Oh, I think it's maybe a TV show like a credit.
Corey, you don't know what I'm talking about either.
It's like, it's like a Nickelodeon show.
It ends.
It, they do a song.
and then it ends with life is unfair.
I'm pretty sure.
You have this same thing I do where you can hear the melody,
but you can't hit it.
I got that thing too.
It's not tone deaf,
because tone deaf people can't even hear it.
I hate that, man.
I'm sorry.
I know how you feel right now.
Being tone deaf wouldn't hit.
I don't think it's real.
Because wouldn't that mean you couldn't,
you literally couldn't get the difference.
It is the bisexualism of, of like,
disability.
It's pan.
I'm pretty sure Val, our agent.
I think he's tone deaf.
I think people can't do tunes of music,
but if you were tone deaf literally,
wouldn't that mean you couldn't hear the difference between like,
uh,
uh,
like wouldn't you be like,
well,
if you took the word,
the phrase tone deaf literally,
it would have to mean that,
I guess,
surely that's not true.
What does it mean that?
I don't know,
they can't,
damn,
what does it mean?
Because if...
Tone deaf is also a really good synonym for autism
just because, like,
you know,
like you can't read the room.
You know what I mean?
like when you go that way with it?
Right.
Well, I can't, and I think this is what you were just struggling with,
hit the musical notes of a tone or a tune, excuse me, a tune I'm hearing in my head.
But I can hear it.
So I'm not tone deaf.
I can hear the differences, but I can't do it myself.
I don't have the voice to match.
So it's not like my ear for music doesn't exist.
It's my voice.
See what I'm saying?
Yeah.
But that's how I feel like people use it.
They're like, oh, you can't sing.
You're tone deaf.
Well, what is perfect pitch?
I know it's the exact that, but I'm saying, like, there's people that do that don't sing, right?
Can't you have perfect pitch and not be a singer?
I don't know.
I think so.
I'm pretty sure it's a thing.
It's like, I think it's like a thing you're born with.
Some people are born with perfect pitch, but I think some of them, it goes like the other way.
Like, they use it to identify.
I was about to say, if you're not singing, though, how do you discover that you have it?
I don't know, man.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm going to try, I guess.
We can move on.
Yeah, go ahead.
I'm going to look this up or try to.
Well, let's wrap it up on John Tesh.
I got to give it up for the man.
I don't know what he does or how he does it, but it's impressive.
And specifically selling out theaters.
That's the part where I'm like, how does he tour?
How do you tour on?
But now you get it.
No, I get his career and that he has one and why, because he's famous.
I generally don't understand someone selling out tours for a concert
because they host a morning show and wrote the NBA theme song.
Corey, that's insane.
But if you think about it, though, like, the morning show demographic, it is crazy, but like, that demographic.
What do they think they're going to see when they get there?
Why are they coming out?
Because that's a safe concert for them to go to, like, I don't know, like, that.
To hear what?
The NBA theme show?
Hold on.
You're telling me that, like, John Tish.
He's got hits besides the things.
I was about, I was about to say, you're telling me, John Tess don't have like an Ovoa.
I thought I don't fuck with John Tish.
I don't know because I don't fuck.
with him. I just always thought he was one of those dudes.
What are they? No, the whole reason
I brought it up is because it blew my mind
that that guy did the NBA.
Like, I didn't know he fucked with that. But I'm saying
like, he was really big on like
AM and soft rock stations.
And that demographic, when you
get a hold of them, like your
middle America
white women who say darn,
you know, like, I don't know.
That's like, there's a lot of them.
I didn't think they went out to shows
of the guy who they heard on AM radio that
morning. I thought they went out to shows of the band like Smashmouth, who was big when they were in
high school and is now doing the county fair on the way down circuit.
Yeah.
Like I, like the idea that this man puts out music, people consume it and then go to theaters
to watch him is mind-blowing when you consider that that didn't work for Bruce Willis.
It didn't work for Eddie Murphy.
It didn't work for- He's still doing that?
John Tesh is alive and touring and recording.
I don't know.
I know that he had a decades-long career.
John Tesh has 44 albums.
44 albums.
Studio, not going live and compilations.
That's crazy.
You missed it. But the reason we're even talking about this is because I found out that
he did the NBA theme song and I saw a clip of him in concert doing it to the crowd.
And like, theater, he's wearing like fucking a tuxedo and shit.
And he's just going, ba-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Well, that's great.
There's, dude, there's whole worlds of people who,
don't, who you don't like understand their,
that's right.
No, dude.
He did the nine minute version for me.
Yeah.
And I just went, well, goddamn.
I don't know what else to say about it.
I'm not mad.
But like, you know what I'm saying?
Like there's, you know, niche things.
Yeah.
I'm not surprised.
Someone that even I have heard of who I didn't fuck with it all, but I've heard
of them.
I'm not surprised that they have a niche.
I had never heard of Russell Piers until.
I'm sorry, go ahead.
I think 44 albums puts it.
even more in my camp of what the
fuck is going on with this guy.
I agree.
He's 44 albums.
That's more than one a year.
It has to be. Maybe it is one a year
at this point. I feel like
he hasn't put one out in a while.
But the last 20
or hardcore Christian. Hardcore Christian.
There you go.
All right, that's it. Never mind. All right.
Carry on. We got it. That'll do it.
We'll do it.
I was waiting on a thing. Oh, go ahead.
It actually, perfect pitch, primarily
refers to hearing, not singing.
Makes sense.
It's that it refers to a person's ability to identify any musical note by name after hearing
it without reference to other notes.
So you just hit one note by itself and they can tell you exactly what note it is every
single time.
That's perfect pitch.
Perfect pitch, also know more technically as absolute pitch, can also refer to the
ability that some singers have to sing a given note on cue.
But it's mostly the hearing.
Yeah, like she's got perfect pitch.
So what is tone, do we get a tone-deaf definition on the opposite of the spectrum?
We're about to find out.
Everything sounds the same to you?
But that, that to me is like, how can you even tell the difference?
How can you do sarcasm?
Right.
You do question versus statement.
Sometimes you go, Trey?
And it's like, can they pick up that that's a question?
Right.
And Val can very much, he knows sarcasm, otherwise we wouldn't have as good of a relationship with him.
It says unable to perceive differences of musical pitch accurately.
So I feel like they can't
I don't even know what that means
Well who gives a fuck
I accept it
Yeah I'm fine with that
Yeah
Who the fuck can do that?
John Mayer?
But like they could still hear music
They just can't go
That's a day
This says like often the term tone deaf
Is used to describe a person
With little musical talent
But those with genuine
Tone deafness
Are unable to distinguish
Differences in pitch
That's crazy
That's got to be rare
Yeah
That's insane
That's also gonna be
It's a horrible way to exist.
A musia. A musia.
A mousia.
It's a congenital impairment that affects 4% of the population.
That's what Italians called minorities for years.
His fucking kid, you can't do nothing with him.
He's got a musia.
Find them to be a musia.
All right.
Yeah, I don't know.
Can it be no treatment?
Nothing like that.
I don't know.
That is weird to think about.
I got a raven thing that I've been, I waited on you to get here.
Up top, Corey had a lot of fun talking about how I look like.
like I coach softball at a prison league.
Yeah.
And how he looks like he just got back from Vietnam.
Yeah, that was mostly the bit.
So I've been waiting to talk to you guys about this.
Malcolm in the Middle, by the way.
Malcolm in the Middle's theme song ended with Life is Unfair.
That's right.
Life is Unfair.
Written by John Tesh.
Exactly.
All right.
Anyway, that was going to drive me crazy.
But yeah, Malcolm in the Middle theme song.
Go ahead.
So I put a joke out.
Uh, it's, it's a bit, I've been waiting on this.
I put a joke out a little while ago, and it's doing some numbers.
And then someone says, who's clearly a fan, your arms look bigger than one would think by listening to the podcast.
Nice.
You sound gay.
So then I said, okay, dude, hilarious.
My co-hosts are absolutely going to want to hear you expound on this.
What do you mean?
I don't and I'm like this is so raven I cannot wait for whatever Corey that's what I
that's how I thought we were going with this thank you I'm so glad you set this up so well
I'm just waiting on this guy to just call me a nerd I don't know tray and Corey and Corey are
always blabbering and you not as much and when you do it's calm and thought out and
complex probably how I've been raised to imagine but I guess I just thought you'd have
smaller arms than you actually do
just because you sound smarter.
I'm sorry, fam.
I can't wait to see you guys live
and thanks for teaching me the word expound.
I bet he thinks
I'm a jacked meathead, dumbass.
Like, he probably thinks that I'm ripped
because of how stupid I am. Based on
that, like, that, like, using that
as the foundation for, you know,
like a hypothesis, if he
believes that, yeah, it goes to
follow that he would believe that Corey is
shredded. What do you? What
you think his username is? Obviously, you can't guess that. Do you think it's like normal or wild?
And if it's wild, in what way do you think it's wild? Because this dude is, sexual.
This dude is nothing but zigzags, right? Because I was like, okay, I'm a huge nerd to this dude.
I'm going to make him explain for Corey and Tray's Entertainment. And then it turns out he roasts you guys.
This is the username. 420ing. So far good, right? And 1-8-7-ing.
That's okay. That's a turn.
That is Snoop Dog?
For people who don't know, that's smoking weed and then murder.
That's the police code for murder.
Which is the case that they gave Snoop Dog.
What do you think he's 187-ing?
Squirrels?
Pussy.
666.
The devil?
Bro.
That he's smoking weed and killing the devil.
I wasn't, I did not see that coming.
You guys know?
Just smoking weed killing the devil?
That's the opposite.
I thought that was going to go.
Calling me a nerd, but also clearly the smartest man alive?
You can't pin this guy down.
Smoking weed and killing the devil.
I'll go back.
You think he means like, you know,
the devil in his life?
Or, you know what I mean?
Or just like the Bible devil?
Like smoking weed and loving Jesus.
Bible devil hit.
Right.
Smoking, weeding, loving Jesus.
I'm sure it happens.
Rasta.
Is that what Rasta is?
It's Rasta, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, you're right, I guess.
Is that ignorance?
I don't know.
Is Rasta?
Oh, also libertarianism.
True.
And hating blacks.
You got to put that part in there.
Yeah, you're right.
Right.
But, like, loving Jesus is enough to make your thing about Jesus, but also weed.
That's just, but it is wild.
It's wild.
You've blown my mind.
It's wilder than his wild comment.
I'd like to apologize to that guy for talking too much on our podcast.
Don't know.
The hour-long talk session.
I don't listen to podcasts.
There are people running off at the mouth.
Anyway.
Well, you don't seem calm is what I think his main complaint was about.
You just, you blabber.
You're not calm.
You're not thought out or complex.
All right.
Babel is a word for carrying on, too.
I feel like when you, it's funny.
I'm not going to lie.
It's like, you say all that about Corey, and I'm like, yeah, nailed it, right?
But I'm being lumped in with it.
And I'm like, I don't think that's fair.
Come on.
He's mad.
Corey, before you get too mad, please understand that I read all that.
And then you started talking about the word babble, which was not said by anyone.
Oh, I'm not.
I'm not mad at...
No, no, no.
I'm not mad at all.
I was saying that, like, normally when I hear people say that,
they usually say, oh, he babbles a lot, not blabber.
And then...
Is it me?
No, he's saying not blabber.
Oh, my bad.
He's saying babble instead of blabber.
Normally, he used the word blabber.
I normally hear people say, oh, he babbles about all this,
but I feel like this guy, because he's talking about me and Trey,
he was thinking blubber, and he comboned the two words.
Comboned them.
And blabber is what we do.
We're fat and we talk.
What do?
Comboned them.
Combined them.
Speaking of blubber, blabber, all that, earlier, Corey described himself as bubbly,
except he said bubbly, which is fine.
It made me realize, you described yourself as having a bubbly personality, but you didn't
say bubbly, you said bubbly, which is fine.
I'm not necessarily anything wrong with that.
It just made me realize that that's also bubbly, which is also, you know.
That's right.
Bubbly.
is somebody who would do really well at the NFL
Combong. Yeah, right.
And he would have a wonderful
endorsement with a drink company.
And a rib company.
Yeah.
Yeah, hell yeah.
Dude, I could sell ribs.
Yeah, no, we've all seen the picture.
Well, the people haven't, but
there's a picture.
Have we ever showed the picture on here?
You'll have to give it to Aaron
so he can show it next week.
He's been crushing a picture.
Trey can find this picture in less time
than it would take you to consume a plate of ribs back then.
so Tray can get it to Aaron and we can get it to people right now.
You ever had ribs with coffee on it?
Trey, can you email that real quick?
And then Aaron, can we pull it up that way?
Okay, cool, yeah.
While you're doing that, it does need to be seen.
My baby's two days late.
Yeah, every week I'm like, you know, what's going on?
Because I keep thinking it's supposed to be here.
Let me ask you a question.
I don't know about babies.
You got two of them.
Do you think the longer it's in there, the more chances it comes out fat?
because that's all I want.
It cooks.
All I think about is it, you know, baking, bun in the oven.
I mean, that is.
It ain't going to come out black, though.
You know what I'm trying?
No matter how long you live it in there, he's not going to.
I mean, it's still going to be white.
It won't be because of the time.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, that's true.
It's probably only a couple, you know, deuce.
But, like, yeah.
All I want, people are, you want a boy, you want a girl?
Because we don't know.
You want a boy?
You want a girl.
I want a fat baby.
And Andy's like, well, that'll take a week or two.
And I'm like, well, then I'll catch me later.
in a week or two.
I ain't got no use for a skinny fucking baby.
I want a fat one.
I want a suckle on his cheeks, dude.
I want it to look like the Michelin man.
I believe you.
Yeah, mine's getting fat, and it's great.
Yeah.
This is the best.
I've seen it.
I obviously loved him when he was born.
I didn't mean that when it sounded.
He looks like your dad.
I didn't mean it the way it sounded.
It just looks like Dale looking at me.
How about Corey?
No, he does.
He is fat.
Corey poked his baby and I with cheese.
Cheese dip.
Yeah.
I did.
How did I forget?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was trying to feed him cheese dip and film it with his phone.
He had cheese dip on his finger in front of his baby's head, and he's holding his phone
like this.
And he's like, here he just cheese dip.
He just cheese dip, boy.
And the baby's being a baby, so it's, you know, doing this shit, which what babies do.
And he just went, blah, right on his eye, right on Corey's cheesy finger.
And Corey starts from it.
Now, like, freaking it.
He was like, oh, fuck it to the eye, to the tie.
God, damn.
It was tremendous.
And the resignation.
Well, what made Amher.
in Amber's voice when she said,
Corey.
Yeah, right.
What's funny is because she was actually mad at all of us at the moment.
Pull that pick up while he talks.
I had, do what?
Talk about you poking your baby and I with cheese it while this is on.
Dude, I love it every time this picture comes up because it makes me feel so good about where I'm at now.
By the way, I've somehow never noticed this, Corey.
I guess because of how massive you look, I just couldn't look.
at anything else?
Look at those
fucking ribs.
Those are Flintstone ribs, dude.
That's a barbecue in Austin.
They almost make you look small.
Yeah, but like you said,
he could sell ribs.
Also, Corey, how old are you in this picture?
Lockhart.
How old are you in this picture?
Uh,
I was,
hold on.
It was right after my dad had a heart attack.
I was 24.
24 yeah yeah I mean you are baby face there
hold on it was 2009 I graduated in 2006 no bro I was
21 yeah that's closer to 22 yeah
and what was your cholesterol then yeah
right as fuck but again though I'm sincerely happy that we've done this because like
I'm feeling fat now because I've gained like five to six pounds since we had the baby and I've had a
hard time leveling it off. But like, dude, and I am fat now. But compared to that, holy fuck,
that looks like a different person. You're not fat now, first of all. It'd be a hell of a thing
for me to do a whole diatribe about how you have body issues after I just made him pull that
picture up. But you're not fat. I'm a, I'm a bulbous, bubbly man. Well, now that people
that are watching, at least, have seen the picture, like, I've said before, I've talked about how
when I first met Corey, like, you just said, you're like, he looks like a fucking truck
driver. And I've said before, like, when I first met Corey, he was a year or so older than that,
not much, but his hair, his hair line was progressing backward, you know.
He didn't wear his hat as much. And, and he still wore a hat a lot, but when he didn't,
he had some hair, but it was going back. And he was like that, basically, that era of Corey. And
like I said, like, I'm not, this is not a bit. I'm not joking. I look younger now. I'm not
joking at all. I genuinely thought when I met him, I was like, this is a 40-year-old road dog
comic who's been divorced twice, in and out of rehab, whatever else, like, you know, drives
a truck when the gigs aren't there or whatever, like that is this.
When I found out he was actually two or three years younger me and was like 23 at the time,
22 or 23, nothing has ever blown my mind more than that.
All that.
But you know, yeah, but you're, you know, you're fine now.
You were shot out, buddy.
Buddy, you were shot out.
And you were kind of bitter.
Like, I don't know what wasn't working out for you, but like it matched.
You know what I mean?
You were kind of a dick to me, maybe not to Trey.
And I was like, yeah, this 33-year-old comic hates me.
No, listen, and I apologize for that.
Genuinely, I feel bad because, I mean, all of it.
No, I do feel bad.
Like, it made sense.
Like, I was like, yeah, it's lots of.
If you, looking at that picture, I don't just see, I go immediately to my eyes.
And I go, and I can remember immediately how I felt back then, which was,
I was overweight.
I was abusing drugs and alcohol.
And yes,
my dreams weren't coming true at the speed that I thought they were.
And also,
I didn't realize how much actual clinical depression and anxiety
and all that shit that I had,
that all the drinking and stuff was making it worse.
So, like,
I was a miserable fucking person.
So, like,
I believe you when you say that.
And I'd say that a lot of people,
if they met me at that time,
they're like,
they come away thinking that I'm different
than the actual person that I am today.
You know what I mean?
Who's gay now, 420ing the devil?
I know, I'm just saying.
Was he talking about Michael Rap before earlier?
We put this picture up, yeah.
Because of justified or something?
Yeah.
But Corey, I want to, the only reason I brought it up is I want the people watching on
YouTube to think, this guy holding the ribs, he put creamy cheese in his baby thigh.
You don't say.
So, yeah, speaking of people watching on YouTube,
Corey got real heavy and sincere there for a second
about the issues he was facing in his early 20s,
and someone on YouTube was going to notice
that I was over here trying very hard not to laugh out loud,
not because of anything he was saying,
because I thought about making a joke about how it had to,
I was thinking, like, and you had to be bummed out
because, you know, like fat boy drunk was already taken,
so what were you going to do, right?
Like, I was thinking about saying that,
but then I was like,
No, I can't.
And then I started, I was like cracking myself up internally.
But I knew I couldn't just let it go because if someone saw it, it would look like I was just like stifling hard laughter at Corey being like, yeah, I wanted to kill myself.
I was at the end of my rope, you know, and I'm just over like, well, I'm mad that you didn't.
How bad they could make me and you look in terms of this boy?
You mean like taking clips?
Yes, which is so funny because he's a psychopath.
He used to play literally.
on loop a song called Drew Don't Hit
to open the podcast.
Like he would open with it.
But like, but
someone will put a clip together eventually
of me. Yeah. Just like
when he kills himself is when they'll do it.
They'll be like, this is why.
I can't kill myself now. I know.
I know. I've already made peace with it and it sucks.
I know. Fucking kid, dude. Dude, I got so mad
at Andy last night because I thought about her dying.
And she's like, what is wrong with you? And I go, I was high.
I was like, I just thought about you dime
and how if you do, I can't do what my plan was when I thought you was going to die.
We're about to get real dark and heavy again.
I thought Andy was going to kill herself for like about six months in my month.
I was like, this is something I've got to like process.
She may do that.
And I had a plan.
Like I had a fucking bottom of the barrel gutter horror plan.
And now that plan's going to fucking shit, dude.
Oh, right.
Coast Rica.
Dude, I think the same thing about Amber, you know.
Yeah, that's awesome, Trey.
Do they give heroes pills?
right well if you're talking about like horrors and stuff a lot of you know
i think it would play in certain circles is what i'm saying dude like i just remember
i just remember i'm trying to make you feel better i know it's making it making me sound worse
yeah right you did bring it up but like i could remember when i worked at old charlie's dude
anytime a guy it could happen a few times if a like somewhat younger dude came in with like a
by himself with a small baby or like a toddler or whatever especially if it was a girl seemed like
the girls
the girls that I worked with through a service
they were just like
I mean they'd just melt
bro I see what's happening
they'd be going and telling each other like
you gotta fucking you know they'd like
they'd lose it
you're misunderstanding me a little bit
because I said the phrase gutter whore
because I know myself
and I know what I'd be doing
but what I'm lamenting is not
I can get gutter horrors right now
and throw my whole life away
yeah right
giving up is what has been taken from me
oh okay
like I can never give up
and the whole you can't
The fantasy of giving up was apparently something I liked.
Like, it was apparently something I needed.
The fantasy of quitting was really appealing to me, and it is fucking gone now.
An option.
Like, I'm glad that I've never killed myself, but there were sometimes where the thought of killing myself actually brought me out of a depression.
Right.
Because I was like, I was like, well, there is, I could do that, you know what I mean?
but like I'm the same way with with Amber right now like I'm inventing situations to get mad at her because of because like we used to talk we used to joke all the time about like oh Amber will probably die on a jet ski and like because that's the type of person she is and now I'm thinking about her doing that and I'm like you because I've taken suicide off the table for me and I was like baby you've got to take dying on a jet ski off the table for you you have to do that it's a beer pong table like her brain hasn't changed and I'm like if you fucking
die right now. Like, I'm going to crush it. And I used to, like, before we had the kid,
I had this whole plan. I was like, well, I would be devastated if Amber died on a jet ski,
sure. However, the rest of my life would go pretty well once I grieved. And now that's not the
case. So, you know, it would still go well, but one or two particular avenues have been removed
from you. Yes. Yes. And for me, I don't fantasize about suicide. Jesus, we're fucking in it now.
I don't fantasize about suicide near as much as I fantasize about quitting.
Just absolutely giving the fuck up.
Just being a dirtball until you either snap out of it or die.
No, you're just in a bath, drugs, drinking whiskey.
I'm about say drugs and like gutters and shit?
You said gutter whore, didn't you?
Like, but I'm saying like.
That was a very visceral phrase I used and it has shaped this conversation and I do regret it.
But like, you're going to be on somebody's couch.
Who knows?
I mean, no, I own a place.
Dude, it would be 10.
Yeah.
I'd end up there.
A little one bedroom, big ass lawn, mowing it drunk 10 in the morning.
Dude, if Amber, if I didn't have the kid and Amber died, I could 100% keep up my house and basically give up.
You know, like I'd have to do some things, but I could pretty much give up most of my drive and still be fine.
I don't have a mortgage.
I do have a mortgage, but it's not that much because of where I live and like, dude, I could make my mortgage.
You couldn't give up better than me.
Bull shit
Bull fucking shit
I just
But okay
You don't have
At least one aspect of this
So like I thought before
Like
If I had never
You know so many comics
Are maybe by the time
They get to 40 and stuff
They're getting married
Whatever else
But like I've been with Katie
We weren't married
But I've been with Katie since I started
Right
And then your twin most comics
For a very long time
Or you know
Singles
Bachelors whatever
I get it
But I thought before like
I get why
But I thought before like
How
if I was
I'd
be
Nick fall off
I'd be either that or like
300 pounds
yeah right
me
absolute fucking mess
of a and like
wouldn't
and would feel like shit all the time too
because like
if I if I had been for Katie
and the boys and stuff
I don't know if I'd ever toned it down
like I did and like
I don't think that that would hit
for like I know that eventually not
that don't feel good
Oh, but imagine how good it would feel getting there.
But see, you don't get fat, though, like that.
Yes, I do.
You slimy son of a bitch.
I get fat.
You guys call me corn dog.
We don't have a nickname for fat tray.
Because he shows up too much.
Felix, the cat.
I'm saying, look, none of this is real.
If God forbid that it ever happened, I wouldn't go that far, ever.
She hasn't removed from me.
the kid hasn't removed for me the possibility.
It's removed from me this dumb fantasy.
Andy and I have this like,
she has like a dry erase thing on the mirror
where she puts little positive messages on it.
And I'll put my own messages on there too.
And most of the time they're positive.
I'm doing it correctly.
But sometimes you boys throwing them in there.
No doubt.
A little dagger here in there.
And the last one, this was before the kid,
that I wrote that was a joke was,
I resent you for making me a better
person. That's what I'm getting at is like, of course, part of the reason I love my wife is she's
made me a better person. And of course, having this kid is a good thing because it's going to make
me continue on that path. And of course, if God forbid something happened, no, because my mama loves
me, I wouldn't go that far. Because I do have a future, I wouldn't let it go that far. Because
I have things to live for, but I had this fantasy of just not trying. I don't have that. I don't
You know why you're correct, Trey.
I just now figured it out.
That trip was a trip me and my dad took after he had a heart attack, right?
But we didn't take it for a couple years because he still had to recover.
I think I'm 24 in that picture.
My point is, when you're talking about if I was single and a comedian, how would it, thank you.
If I was single and a comedian, how would it go?
In that picture right there, I had been doing stand-up longer than you had before the liberal redneck video came out.
Right.
And I did the whole thing with, I mean, I was in some types of relationship, but like basically without a steady woman, that is the fuck what happens.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, I don't actually want that.
Yeah.
But I imagine it being so much better than that.
Do you know what I mean?
It's not.
I'm sure.
It would be now, you're not young.
I was stupid.
Like, I was young and stupid.
Like, if Amber died and I would, you know, like, I eat healthier.
I know how to exercise and stuff, but like, I don't know, man.
I'll probably fall apart
The upshot of this is that I have a stupid fantasy
Like the upshot of this is that the fantasy is stupid
If you want to maintain your fantasy
And I know your whole point is like
But with a kid I can't because it ruins the family
I get that
But like bro
No one is more of a like
Stereotypical
Everything's fucked
I'm slowly killing myself
Throwing my life away type loser
Than a guy who has lost his whole family
I don't mean in a fire
I mean by pushing them away
Or whatever
Oh it can't be my fault
Okay. In this fantasy.
Everyone feels bad for me.
Come on, dude. No one is more, you know, more of a fucking dirtbag than like that guy.
The divorce guy who has a family, like, you know, so he's pissed off and they don't fuck with him.
And he's laid drunk all day long and don't do shit.
One time my mom...
It's the ultimate in dirtbaggery.
One time my mom got angry out loud, she's always angry with my brother for kind of being the guy he's described.
and she said in front of me
I wish I could just fucking do pills
and she almost never cusses, right?
She says, I wish I could just do fucking pills.
I wish I could just lay down somewhere
and not put up with how hard things are.
She's in the right place for it, I'm right?
Morgan County.
You know.
And that's what I'm getting at.
I'm like, I was like, oh shit, mama, me too.
She was making a point.
But I was like, damn, dude, I guess we all got that.
But it's a dark, it's a joke.
This is a joke.
This is not how I feel.
But it's that like, that little acorn of a thing.
This is me.
I don't fantasize about suicide the way some people do.
I fantasize about quitting.
I used to.
I told Corey.
I don't do that anymore for the record.
Every now and then, I hope this ain't like too much or whatever.
But like, I know what time you guys started because I saw those texts and it was a little late.
There might be another show.
Is there, Aaron?
We got to go.
Oh, yeah, there is a 2 o'clock.
There is a 2 o'clock.
Hello, everybody, how I wanted to kill myself all the time.
I will, yeah.
I'm leaving on the cliffhanger of, like, how Corey used to talk about killing himself all
time, so they'll be really worried about you and get on to me for not supporting you
and all that shit, which is what always happens.
