Starting point is 00:00:00 And we thank them for sponsoring the show. Well, no, I'll just go ahead. I mean, look, I'm money dumb. Y'all know that. I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life. And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion, because used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's just like you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie. I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now. Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people. People across the ske universe, I should say.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year? Do you even know? Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery? Getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low main? Because that's a thing that we do in this society. Do you know how much you spend on that? It's probably more than you think. But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better.
Starting point is 00:00:58 And it's called Rocket. money. Rocket money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. Rocket money shows all your expenses in one place, including subscriptions you already forgot about. If you see a subscription, you don't want any more, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create custom budgets based on your past spending.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Rocket money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps. Premium features. I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was probably like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. And I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practice.
Starting point is 00:01:59 practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that. Also, a fun one I'd said it before, but I had a, I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friends' faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got, I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies, you know, those weren't a little like the cue ball looking twin fellas. Yeah. So that was that in response to? What was that reply I give for just when I did something stupid. Something fat and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first, but then I quit using it and was still paying for
Starting point is 00:02:39 it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them. They help.

Sorry you're here for this court. She's just been talking shit on me. Literally, not even since she got here, before she got here, she was approaching at a distance where she had to yell and said, oh, you look like a softball player, which what does that mean? No, I said, you look like you just came from softball practice. You don't look like a player because even a player looks more put together. You just look like you were throwing a ball around and then show up.
Starting point is 00:04:33 A guy who goes to softball practice but isn't on the team? Yeah. He just really loves it. It's funny because Aaron, before y'all got here, he peeped in the headphones and he goes, Corey, can I ask you a question? And I thought he was going to be like, hey, why the fuck are they late or like what, you know, and I was like, yeah, man, what's up? And he goes, why are you in a Dodgers uniform?
Starting point is 00:04:53 Oh my God, you are. Yep. Yeah. And I was like, I'm actually not. It's actually stupider. This is a, this is an old school Lakers shirt, which I just randomly had on. And then I just, I came upstairs and I grabbed the first hat, which just happened to be this Dodgers hat. I saw it.
Starting point is 00:05:10 And I was like, eh, this looks ridiculous. But I'm on a tiny screen. No one can tell. And Aaron was immediately like, you look like the kid from the second, uh, Indiana Jones. That's hilarious. Are we rolling? Yeah. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:05:25 I'm so glad we're getting all this. Truly, because you look like a bandwagon fan is what you look like. That's who he is in his heart. Oh, gotcha. They're the liberal rednecks. They like cornbread but sex. They care way too much, but don't give a fun. They're the liberal rednecks that makes some people upset.
Starting point is 00:05:48 They got three big old dicks that you can suck. What's so funny about that is that's that thing where you're like, you're anxious about a thing. And then you're like, nah. Nobody will notice. I'm ridiculous for having this thought. And then immediately you're like, fuck, I knew it. I was right. My fears were correct.
Starting point is 00:06:12 It's that meme where they're like, oh, what's it called? Godzilla, whatever, Lisa Frank Godzilla can never hurt you. And then it's a picture of Lisa Frank Godzilla. and it's like it's very much capable of you. So we weren't recording, but Carmen said she was talking shit about you and she said that you look like you just came from softball practice. I think we got that, but go ahead.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Well, I just wanted to bring to your attention because I thought this was, look, mean comments on the internet are not something I like to give a lot of attention to, but this one was kind of hilarious. It was about both you and Trey. I put out a clip of a well-read podcast last week, and it was you and Trey going back and forth, on something and someone made a comment that was hey why don't y'all put on pants and learn what to do
Starting point is 00:06:58 with your hands you fat queers oh well okay that's subtle at least you know i like about a comment subtlety nuance yeah you fat queers yeah didn't even have anything to do with what y'all are talking about just wanted to put it out there so speaking of fat queers Carmen said that i looked like i played softball yeah and then we walked into this building laughing and shitting on each other. And there's a lot going on that's building the day. There's never anyone in the lobby, ever. You got to ring the doorbell.
Starting point is 00:07:30 You got to wait. There were seven people in there as we burst through the door loud. And I say, in the rebuttal to the softball lob, I don't even eat pussy. As there's just a bunch of professional women with like headphones and shit looking at me. There were some dudes, too. They looked even more of them. You wish. They were not that fun.
Starting point is 00:07:51 That's why I was like, I'm sorry. Is our joy upsetting you? Oh, my bad. It's not all things business. That's true. That's true. Aaron, does this, do we share this facility or that lobby with anyone other than all things comedy? Yes, several of the business.
Starting point is 00:08:08 That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Shit. So it might be all things business next door. This isn't all things building. I actually was nervous about coming on here. I wanted to let you both be. Full transparency, because the last time I came on here, you have a fan, I guess, that almost got me fired from a gig because I, much like, I don't know, thousands at this point of comedians have shit on the city of Naples, Florida.
Starting point is 00:08:38 And because I shit on the city of Naples, Florida, she wrote the owner of the comedy club, Captain Brian, who I fucking adore. it's the only reason I would ever go to that shit town is because of Captain Brian wrote to the club owner and said that I was shitting on the club and I was like no I wouldn't work the club if I hated the club and then this fucking Daffy Twat was like I love your club I actually supported a couple times a year oh whoa whoa whoa whoa and then so then I had to get an email
Starting point is 00:09:09 that's like oh what the fuck you don't that's how you promote the club club and I'm like that's the old Naples bruce And then I went there and I did the gig because it was too close for him to cancel on me, but I probably won't be getting a gig next year because of this daffy twat. By the way, fuck you. And the shows were great. The shows were great. But that town is fucking horrible.
Starting point is 00:09:32 You know why? Because they're definitely human trafficking there. And I don't mean this in a QAnon kind of way or in any of that kind of way. I just mean that every single business has three names. They're three names long, like opulence. Excellence outdoor patio furniture. Fucking Jimbo's submarine sandwiches. Everybody's, there's no limit to the length of the names of these businesses.
Starting point is 00:09:59 And then the other business. I mean, I think the club is called Off the Hook Comedy Club. Yeah. Technically, it's Captain Brian's off the hook. They all have a long-ass name except for one particular business called massage. And in every single fucking strip mall, there's much. Massage. There's not like White Lotus and
Starting point is 00:10:21 Water Lily massage. No, it's just massage. There's no fucking name and it's not that they couldn't just, like, there's no name on the door either, because sometimes people would be like Thai food and then it'll be like, oh, this is, you know, this is a would it insert a name, Thai restaurant? Yeah, you get the menu and it's like. Oh, it's a
Starting point is 00:10:39 different name. Okay, I understand. You didn't have enough money to get a name brand, you know, a customized fucking neon sign. But I'm talking every like then i made it a point to look in every single fucking strip mall all massage all undiscript blacked out mirrors everything every blackout windows every single fucking one so double fuck you for not only trying to get me fired for being fucking funny but too fuck you for living in a town that's fucking definitely human trafficking yeah you heard it here first yeah massage massage places and And I think liquor stores are places that they don't have to have a name.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I love everybody else. I love everybody else. Well, the rest of your fans are rad. I've been wanting to say that for a while. If you are still, what'd you call her a daft cunt? Was that it? Daffy twat, probably. Daffy twat.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Okay, daff cunt is my favorite cover band. Yeah, we may have said it at the time. Yeah, and they wear pussy hats instead of the helmets. And all the songs, the B-drops, and then they're like, fuck, to patriarchy. Sorry, go ahead, Corey. We were doing a second. Oh, it's fine, but I just know there's a lot of people that operate their business with like, we don't want to lose any customer. The customer is always
Starting point is 00:11:55 right. We're not like that here at Well Red. I hope that if that person has been listening up until this point that you fuck off forever because you almost cost Carmen that gig and it probably definitely cost her a gig in the future. You can fuck yourself. I don't know how you could be that big of a piece of shit and have been like
Starting point is 00:12:14 on board with this podcast. this whole time because we've certainly talked shit about other cities and you haven't said a fucking thing but there you sit in naples on your fucking throne of judgment the i'm saying it here carman won't say it she kind of danced around it the human trafficking capital of florida naples and you talk that kind of shit fuck you ma'am yeah you have to like win a contest and apply every year to be the capital because i even went back and listened to it like four times because I was like, wait, I don't remember shitting on the club. I like that club.
Starting point is 00:12:47 I wouldn't go to Naples. The club's great. I wouldn't go to Naples at all if it wasn't for that club. So then I re-listened to it three times. But it was me. That said anything. And what I was talking about was the floor being wet and nearly breaking my arm. And Corey and tray laughing at me while everyone, literally the whole staff pointed and laughed at me.
Starting point is 00:13:09 And all I said was like, fuck them for that. But like in a. in like a frat-boy way of like fuck my frat for laughing at me. And Captain Brian, who is a lover of comedy, would have gotten that. I mean, you know what I'm saying? And it wasn't even that. And you were like, we were like, wait, that's in Naples right. And I was like, yeah, Naples is trash.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Right. That was that was what I was like, yeah, it was because I said Naples is trash. That she and she added what I, like, just took what I said out of context. Me and me and then assigned it to you. Yeah. Fuck you, bitch. And by the way, I love the staff there. But I meant it when I said, fuck them for horse laughing at me when I broke my
Starting point is 00:13:42 goddamn arm and me and them are cool oh yeah dude i love them the manager there is is so rad he like genuinely he's like trying to do stand-up but so cute and he's handsome and he's yeah he's like the tall skinny handsome one of those that you know a big dick probably yeah i don't know about i don't know about it's a thing it's a thing with tall skinny white man i've been in enough locker rooms it's rare they don't have a hog on them oh yeah nice well you know he's just like a like a sweet boy and then he's like he was doing a thing you know so i gave him a little we had a little comedy shot was great he like love stand-up And that like those are the people I want in a thing. He's trying, you know, it's the new.
Starting point is 00:14:16 I hope she writes him again. This time they were objectifying your manager saying that his penis is saying inappropriate things about his penis. She verbally sexually assaulted. It will be, I'll still get the blame for it again. I'm not really. I said it was a sweaty shoehorn cock. That's a business there, actually. Sweaty shoehorn cock.
Starting point is 00:14:37 It is. Yeah. Well, Carmen, they start. In your fingers. Florida. Correct. Mm-hmm. Well, so.
Starting point is 00:14:42 being from Florida, don't you, like, y'all, all of y'all should know, like, people can shit on Florida and you're supposed to be able to take that in stride. That's why you moved to Florida. Right. Wait, what? Why do you move to Florida? Because you can't take it? One, because you live in
Starting point is 00:14:58 Ohio. Yeah. And two, and two, because it's the United States, Australia. That's where all the criminals is where you go to flee. You're paying for child support. It's where you go to flee any kind of other child. Like, Florida, will take you in.
Starting point is 00:15:13 It's where you want to go to hate trans people or not read. I mean, that's the place of the country to do those things. So for you to be like, oh, how dare you? You're obviously not originally from here. Yeah. Because we've been taking fucking shots about Florida.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Like, I've been taking shots about Florida my whole life. I used to have a bit about how, I don't do it anymore because now it's getting so bad. It's not even funny anymore. But I used to have a bit about how, like, people treat Florida like it's their toxic X. They talk so much fucking. shit about us. And then once
Starting point is 00:15:44 a year they're like, oh hey, Florida. How's it going? Vacation way. Oh my God. Shut up. You have Disney there? That's so cute. I love anyone bring my kids. I love Florida. I miss you. Miss you, Florida. See you next year. And then they're like, Florida's fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Both are correct. Yes, both are correct. She is crazy, but it's only like $95 to get in Disneyland. That's worth it. If you just go to one, like, To Animal Kingdom? Just the one, the cheapest one. Yeah. Otherwise, it's like $3.50 or something.
Starting point is 00:16:17 It's insane, actually. What's the Statue of Liberty poem? You should rewrite that for Florida. Like, give us your tired, you're poor, you're weak, you're hungry. Give us your crazy, you're insane, you're on the run from the feds. Yes. You're inbred. Give us your white, your Jews, you're kind of white Jews.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Yeah. Yeah, I lived in that part of Florida. Give us your Cubans and people who also hate Cubans in the same. It's really strange. Yeah, give us the most right-wing Latinos in the history of the world. Yeah. Give us all your copies of to kill a mockingbird so we can burn them.
Starting point is 00:16:55 I get it. Reading's hard, but come on now. And you can't give us all your meth. We already have it. Yeah, we do. We took it. We make our own. That's what's nice about Florida.
Starting point is 00:17:04 They're like, no, don't ship it in. We'll make our own. Yeah, that's how you get fucked up. You got to make it yourself. It's like America with oil. Yeah. Meth is Florida's oil. That Blue Crude.
Starting point is 00:17:18 Blue Crude, baby. This podcast is sponsored by Blue Crude. Make sure you go to bluecruid.com. Do we have a commercial today? I hope. Well, I mean, I hope, obviously always we do for money reasons, but I hope not because they might be mad at the Blue Crude spot. Corey, I feel like we had commercials today.
Starting point is 00:17:39 If not, we had them last week. Either I wasn't here. Well, if we do, guess what? We're fixing it in post. We're posting it. Speaking of doing things at the end, looking back, I do want to add, so on our podcast, we did a whole segment. I lost it. If you thought this was fired up, Corey, you should have seen me.
Starting point is 00:17:58 And, like, that lady had been through, like, a lot of tragedy. Like, there's a lot of, like, stuff. Okay, that's actually. No, you're really, you're really amping. It wasn't. There was one thing that we saw. But it was so funny because it came up first. It was, like, a go-fundment because she lost her house.
Starting point is 00:18:14 or some shit. She didn't lose her house. She was renting. Right. As you dived into it, it was like, oh, nobody wants to help this lady. She has this go fund me. She's not making the goal. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:18:26 The more you looked into it, it was like, oh, yeah, you're a dumb bitch. Nobody even wants to help you in your time of me. All true, but it was so funny when our producers started, because we said her name, and he started typing her name in, and then he was like, oh, no. It was like, we're just shitting on this person who lost everything. It turns out they had not lost. They lost like two things. They had not lost it.
Starting point is 00:18:45 Here's who lost two things. Here's where I'm at on that. Like a lot of people like when a lady's shitty, you know, and then you somehow find out they're like, oh, you know, yeah, she was shitty, but like, you know, come to find out she's been through a lot and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. They're expecting you to be like, oh, man, maybe I shouldn't have been so mean to her. But I go, I'm glad that happened to her because she sucks. Because you needed, you needed, obviously you needed to overcome some sort of adversity to
Starting point is 00:19:10 fucking learn something and you still haven't. You still haven't learned somebody who, because it was like hurricane damage. She had gotten hurricane damage, which by the way, I've been through six, honey, okay? Without fucking raising a goddamn, without a go-fund me, bro.
Starting point is 00:19:24 The sixth one was named, honey. And I, like, up top. All right. And, yeah, so it was one of those things I didn't make it a fucking sob story. If anything, I went out and helped other people because that's what the fuck you do.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Latinos. Latinos. I just... Shut up, Corey. Quit reminding everybody I'm a person of color. But yeah, so it's just like if you... No, it'll help optically for what's happening right now.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Right. We don't have enough. Oh, okay. Somebody comes back at us, you know, like, Jesus, you guys really went in on that lady. You know, listen, when people of color speak... It was the Mexican. We have to listen. I'm not Mexican, Corey.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Shut up. Right, whatever. Right, thank you. There you go. Now they're back on board. Yeah, it's just like if you're an asshole and bad things happen to you and you don't learn from it, then then you're still an asshole. That doesn't change anything. I think you have to triple down when someone tries to push back on a circumstantial piece of evidence.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Like I think you have to. Like, first of all, for justice to matter in the world. But second of all, just like if someone's trying to put you on the spot. I'm just saying as a person who's been through multiple. hurricanes have had like replace your roof have like help people who don't have water fucking trying to drive through flooded streets to get water and supplies to other people so they can do it I can do that without trying to get someone fired for a fucking joke right I mean that's that's all and okay also like it's one thing if someone has been through a lot and they're a damaged person
Starting point is 00:21:05 and you're having a conversation and maybe they say something that they say something that they regret, like, they accidentally, like, they make a bad remark. Absolutely. This person had to think about it and send an email. That's different. You know what I mean? That's a calculated shitty person. It's just like when people were shitting on ours.
Starting point is 00:21:25 No. But we haven't read it on here. Have we read the email? I don't remember if you, because I don't remember. Oh, no. I haven't heard it. I wasn't on. So I don't remember if you guys brought it up or not.
Starting point is 00:21:35 I think it might have just got washed over. It says it's not a big deal. But what I'm saying is, is like, it feels. like a big deal. No, that's my emotional truth, Drew. It's also funnier if I'm mad about it. If I'm like, this woman was an asshole.
Starting point is 00:21:50 Oh, trust me. I get it. Yeah, it's funnier to be passionate about it. I get being mad for a joke and people not know anything. The other thing is, is if you bad shit happens to you, i.e., like, I don't mind giving people
Starting point is 00:22:01 the benefit of the doubt that Jimmy Fallon where they were like, this one year he was fucking mean. Oh, yeah, that one year his mom died. Context matters, you know? Context matters. But he's not been in. a dick since, I feel like that makes a difference. I allow people to be cunts because at certain points in your life, you don't have any other
Starting point is 00:22:18 option emotionally. But if you're like, if you like to stay in that realm and be an asshole of people for no fucking reason, bro, then you're going to have to get this backlash because guess what? I am funnier, wittier, and more charming than you could ever be. So that's, goddamn, yes you are. Do we have an applause button for you? Oh, no, that's weird. That's done.
Starting point is 00:22:37 That's it. Anyway, so let's talk about politics. You want to talk about politics? We don't do that anymore. Oh, good, good. What is it then? Yeah, we don't do that. You want to talk about Sidney's Soenny's boobs?
Starting point is 00:22:52 Okay. Yes! So this thing's been going around the internet. It's one of those things where... Oh, is it the lady in the background and her tits were big? We're all popping out, right? It's this thing where there's apparently multiple articles saying Sidney's Sweeney's boobs aren't that big. That's where we're at in America.
Starting point is 00:23:09 we're like, everyone has to have a take of some sort. Do you know what I mean? And it's just very confusing for me to live in. I guess this is post-truth. It's like everyone has to break everything down, including Sidney's Boobes, which is so odd to me. Aaron, can you pull up Sydney,
Starting point is 00:23:27 Sweney's boobs in case Harmon has seen him? Just in case. Aaron's like, this is my favorite part of my job. He's like, music is planned. It's pull up a sweet pair of tits. Chariots of fire. Here's the thing. What's wrong with the,
Starting point is 00:23:39 tits. Nothing. Nothing, as you're about to see. There's a pushup bra. Is it, whatever, it makes them pop. Like, I've definitely have, bro, you know, put them on display or whatever. Put them on the glass. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Pop them up. Her boobs have been out of hand for a minute. And let me, let me get through this. She was on Saturday Night Live, and a couple people on the right were letting it get out of hand because there was like, there was a picture of her doing the monologue with her boobs looking incredible. And there was a couple people that tweeted, like, in earnest, because I looked up their profile that because she was on Saturday Night Live with her tits out, that wholeness was
Starting point is 00:24:17 officially dead. That that killed wokeness forever, her tits being out. And so now I think this is like the reverse of that. That gay retard. And now we have tits out back to back weeks. We're back. I could see a dumb ass believing all that in earnest, say, you know what I mean? Like, we're back, baby.
Starting point is 00:24:33 We won. We won. Okay. Then what happened, Corey? Well, first off, I do love that people are ascribing so much cultural relevance to Saturday Night Live again when like before these two back-to-back things, the thing was that Saturday Night Live doesn't matter anymore. And now all of a sudden it's back-to-back weeks. It's controlling whether or not whokeness and tits are good anymore. But so anyways, since that, now as Drew, yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 00:25:01 As Drew was saying, because we live in a world where the truth, Doesn't matter, apparently, and everyone has to be a contrarian and have a take. Would you say? Her boobs became a meme. I think that's important context. So once it's in the algorithm, we're all talking about Siddy's Sweeney's boobs, then this has to happen. Go ahead. And so now there are people who are writing these op-eds that are like, we need to talk about the fact that Sidney's Sweeney's boobs aren't actually big.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Yes, they are. And also, no, we don't. We don't need to discuss her breasts. We can enjoy them or not enjoy. them. Dude, this is how, you know what this is? All this is is that this is how scared everyone is. Is that what it is?
Starting point is 00:25:44 Yeah, no, no. This is the beginning of the end. This is the fore. This is the beginning of the fall of the empire. No. No, it's going to get way worse than this. I know. But it's now it's like,
Starting point is 00:25:54 but tits, huh? I bet you read all those op-eds and if you read it unhinged, it sounds more accurate. But her tits aren't even that big, right? What's real? Are tits even real? Or are you not? It doesn't matter. Who gives this shit?
Starting point is 00:26:15 Why does this one person's tits matter? Exactly. The only time I don't like fade tits is when they're fresh and they come in for a really tight hug because it hurts because I got I got tits. So you're pushing my tits in with your hard tits. That's the only thing. And that's only if they do it old school style because the new one's a nice and soft and pliable, you know. So if you get a hard, hard press.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Is that right? Yeah. What is it? Full court press. when he gave me the full court press. Yeah, 40 minutes of hell. That's the only time I got an issue with fake tits. It's your body.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Do with it what you will. First of all, I don't think she has fake tits, and I think that's relevant in this case, because it wasn't about... I hope she's sucking out the fat from her thigh or a fucking, I don't know, a deposit on her ass and stab it in there and sticking in that. I don't give a shit what she's doing with her tits.
Starting point is 00:27:00 They look great. I agree with all that. But the discourse wasn't even that. It was like this weird... Well, since we're all talking about it, Let's actually correct the record. And I just don't understand why we have to like, do, do you know what I mean? Like, can't we just have to-tis are a spectrum.
Starting point is 00:27:19 And I'm on it. Itty-ditty committee, you know. Hangers. Itty-bitty-committee, hangers. Hangers. And that's the, like, tits have never been. Why are tits even on the fucking disgusting? Why are we fighting over tits?
Starting point is 00:27:34 Exactly. That's what I'm, thank you. That's what I'm trying to get it. Yes. Why are we fighting over tits? Titty should. bring us together, not apart. Yes. That's literally, push them together.
Starting point is 00:27:43 You don't separate them. You don't create a divide. There's already one there. That's what the clavage is. Right. The French word, a French version of it. See, we have gone woke with tities. Yeah. Listen, when you're nice to the French, then you know you've gone too far. Well, this was another interesting thing. When that all happened, we all thought it was like woke, like female empowerment.
Starting point is 00:28:06 You know, actually, let's talk about. and we found out Mark told us he's like no it's conservatives right in this so like who did you think wrote the op-ab actually let's talk about how our tits aren't that big did you assume it was conservatives like no I didn't I didn't I didn't think it was anyone of note to be honest sure you know but what was the angle you thought like that's the tagline that's the what's the word I'm looking for title what's the paragraphs about I don't know do they have a they have a backstory of the tits Did the tits write an autobiography that they're pulling excerpts from?
Starting point is 00:28:40 Like, I don't know. Like, I truly, like, I can't even. The tits overcame a lot? Yes. I bet you those tits overcame adversity better than that bit from Naples. Yeah, when those tits were younger. Her grandmother's tits were in movies in the 20s. These are nepo titties.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Nepo titties, dude. That would be a little heartbreaking. Like, damn, Cindy Sweet didn't even get in with her tits. She got in with her grandma's name? I could have swore. I could have swore. I was the tits. Carmen, to let you know where I thought it was coming from.
Starting point is 00:29:07 is me being shitty. I definitely thought when I just saw the title like we you know we thought it was like a Jezebel. You know what? You thought it was like a Jezebel like a that's literally what it says. I literally typed that I was like I thought this was some ultra-feminist that was like not going to let us have tities. That's what I thought was going to happen. Nope. And we figured out because Mark told us that it was not that but what is it? I still don't understand what their goal was. The whole point on me either because I read it. That's not big. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:38 And it's like, okay, cool. On what scale? Right. Is there a titty scale? The world, I guess, is what they were doing. What they should have been doing was women who are 25 in movies and weigh 110 pounds. Because on that scale, she's on the far right, which is where I thought y'all wanted her. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Thank you. I think it's also, they don't have anything else at this point. Like, they're grasping at straws. That's a relief to a certain extent. Yeah, like, I think that's the other, yeah, I do. But at the same time, I, there's, there, I do have a little bit of empathy for some of those people. Because I do think, and now we've talked, we've talked about this. We've done this, comics.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Yes. We have to have a hot take on everything because we're putting out content all the fucking time. Right, but now people think they need to have a hot take. Oh, my God. That was like, I posted a thing and it was like, it was a video, an old video, George Carlin where, you know, if you have to take yourself out of it. It's very difficult to be, have commentary, especially on like world views and shit like that when you're emotionally invested in the success of this country.
Starting point is 00:30:52 And like, so if you take yourself out of it, if you don't care what happens, it's easier for you to comment on it. Trump's a lot funnier when you give up. Right. Yeah. And you're white. And you can, yes. It's never funny if you're not.
Starting point is 00:31:03 Definitely that helps the most, I think. But, but not so much when, but then I had people. comment to me like yeah I need to stop giving a fuck about this country and like no and that's not you that's comedians because we're the ones commenting on it you're only commenting underneath the videos of comedians like that's where your voice lies yeah you know it's you're not the one that's on here or you're trying to talk to the to the general populace but where they do get me is a little bit of toxicity is fun a little bit of toxicity is funny it's entertaining
Starting point is 00:31:39 and if we absolve all of that, if you have people that are like, oh, you can't do it. Like, I have a silly joke about PCOS that's just gotten a bunch of views recently. And there's a lot of people like that. This is technically not correct. I know it's not correct.
Starting point is 00:31:51 I am not a medical professional. I'm also not doing a TED talk about PCOS. Boring. I'm still entertaining people. So how can I be funny and concise? I'm a little bit wrong. And that's the old John Cleese thing. Revelin being wrong.
Starting point is 00:32:05 That's the old Chappelle thing. Revelin being wrong. Allow yourself. The old Shepel thing. but he should have drank his own fucking coolid. Revelling and being wrong. It's fun to be wrong sometimes, and people want everyone to be right all the time, and comedy has never been right all the time.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I'm so glad that we're in this, because it's two things I've been going to talk about with somebody for a while, and I've been gathering my thoughts on anyway. One, I don't blame, but you can directly point that shift to John Stewart being such a fucking force of nature at his height. when George W. Bush Why do you think he's doing a job? He didn't want to do anymore again.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I know. That's why. So George Bush became this liar. And with the internet and the theater of politics becoming goofier and goofier, people stopped trusting politicians, period. And it wasn't even like a follow-the-money. But then they started following,
Starting point is 00:32:58 they started believing the Daily Show. That's what I'm saying. John Stewart's the Daily Show. Yes. Because he did that thing where he went on Crossfire and literally got it canceled. He's the next to last episode of Crossfire because he made fun of it.
Starting point is 00:33:12 And apparently they stopped getting views. He crashed their ratings because he went on there and was like, this is theater. You're wearing a dumb fucking bow tie. By the way, Tucker Carlson stopped wearing a bow tie. That's how good he was at what he was doing. But he was pointing out the absurdity of it all. But what happened was, it's not Stuart's fault.
Starting point is 00:33:28 But what happened was people started looking for people like him to not just point out the absurdity. But like to the right side. to become who they follow. Not just the person who points out the problems, but actually who they listen to. And then at the same time that that's going on, Chappelle does this shift. Hey, y'all, we'll be right back after a word from our sponsors. I'll tell you what, Drew, one thing I love is Factor.

I, you know, I thought it was like HBO, Hulu, whatever, and like, yeah, I had all of those, but I also had like some sort of
Starting point is 00:35:43 Swedish-type Netflix that apparently I was using for research on POA that I got like two years ago, never watched, and like a myriad of other things totaling like, I'm not kidding, like $275 a month. And thanks to rocket money, I'm no longer wasting money on those. I've been trying to save money for a while, you know, I got the kid. We're trying to pay off the house so we don't have that burden on us. But it seemed like I was just stuck, but I heard about Rocket Money. They hollered at us. I gave it a try.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Turns out a bunch of subscriptions. It was really holding me down. So they helped me cancel some of that. By the way, also, Rocket Money does this cool thing where they act as sort of like your manager, where they will help you lower your like, like my Comcast bill. Rocket Money was just like, hey, we think we could make you pay. less for Comcast. And I was like, Wordner, like, we'll try. And I just clicked the button. And they were like, yeah, here's $20 off. And I was like, what? And so, yeah, that was just
Starting point is 00:36:39 a thing. It's a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions, monitors, your spending helps lower your bills so that you can grow your savings. Rocket Money has over five million users and is saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription, saving members up to $740 a year when using all the apps features. Drew, what would you do? with 740 additional dollars a year. Buddy, I'm not sure. I'm going to be honest, you started this ad, and now all I can think about is making my wife get on this,
Starting point is 00:37:11 because I guarantee you she is. It's going to double to another $100 million. Well, you said $500 million is what they've saved people? Yeah. When I get Andy on it, it's going to be $600 million. I guarantee it. Yeah, without question. She got apps on apps on apps.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Well, if you're like me, Drew and Andy, stop wasting your money on things you don't use. Cancel your unwanted subscriptions by going to rocketmoney. dot com slash well read that's rocket money.com slash well read rocket money.com slash well red. Save some money. Ski you. Thanks y'all. And now back to the show. To me, the smartest and best things Chappelle has produced in years is his acceptance speech for the Mark Twain Award. Oh my God. That was so brilliant. He was so true and brilliant. And he says on there, and it's sort of in defense of some of the shit he was already started to do.
Starting point is 00:37:55 He was like, you got to speak reckless. I want my kids to understand that you got to be reckless and that it's fun to and it's fun to be wrong. But there's been this shift lately. And I do blame Chappelle somewhat for this. And it's happening all over comedy where it used to be like being wrong was fun. And the woke scolds did go too far and try to take some fun away. Right.
Starting point is 00:38:18 That's when the cannibalism started. Right. You know, that's when we, like fucking Al Franken. Al Franken, I'm still pro Al Frank, but bro, sniff my fucking hair. I don't give a shit. Like, the guy was brilliant. Well, also, we lost that seat to Republicans.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Yes. Like that was the end result. Yes. So, we lost the idea that you can be wrong for fun. Yes. And then in the pushback to get that back, Chappelle, Rogan, they're no longer saying they're wrong. Their fans are no longer saying it's fun for him to say this wrong thing.
Starting point is 00:38:53 they're starting to say he's right. That is a very different thing. That's the problem. You're not supposed to try to be right. You're supposed to be wrong. And when people are saying that you're right, you should go, no, I'm not fucking. That's what I mean, Bill Burr does that. I don't fucking know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Stop going by what I say. Right. I'm just, these are just the thoughts I have. It doesn't mean they're correct. They're just the fucking thoughts I have. It's fun to be wrong, has shifted subtly, but then paradoxically, you know, this huge way into I'm right. That's why we should have like toxic dungeons.
Starting point is 00:39:25 That's my new platform is I think we should have toxic dungeons. A safe place to be a safe place to be toxic? Yeah. So you go, you pay your money instead of a chick stomping on your nuts, right? Whatever your thing is. You can gaslight someone for funsies. You go in there and then it's like, oh, oh, you again? And it's just like, oh, you haven't been sleeping lately.
Starting point is 00:39:45 You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. What do you mean? I don't know what I'm talking about. You've been tired lately. Maybe you miss some sleep and your memories off. What? No, I, I slept fine. I slept fine.
Starting point is 00:39:56 I don't know what you're talking to. You could do that, pay money, be a cunt, and then that's it. And then go be a decent human being to other people. I don't understand why that's so hard. Like, why is that so difficult? When it ever comes... You used to be open mics. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Oh, that's back. Now it's group chat. I was going to say group chats. Oh, group chat. That's where people's toxicity is definitely leaked out. But even that, like, I've noticed this trend on the internet. There's like this joke going around. There's five different versions of it.
Starting point is 00:40:25 It'll be like someone making a point in a very, like, important point in a movie. They'll be like, you're sexist, racist, homophobic. And then like when the person shares it, they're like me and the group chat or something like that. But then you go look at the comments and it's not like a celebration of, yeah, sometimes we're wrong. Isn't that fun? It's like very angry people who were like, thank God we're getting back to. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:51 And so there's no more we're being wrong. We're aware of it. It's fun. Mask off. Wrong has become right. Right. You're like celebrate. You're right.
Starting point is 00:41:00 I mean, Dave Chappelle is considered a righteous leader by some people by saying the wrong thing. They're interviewing people like if he murdered some. Somebody, a guy said if he murdered someone on in the front steps of the White House, I would still follow him to his death. Chappelle? No. Trump. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Yeah. Yeah. People are saying on stage things that. we would just say in the group chat, kidding, to make each other laugh. They're now saying it on stage being serious. Well, to be fair, to be clear, I'm fine with that. To me, what's happening in comedy right now, though, is there's a shift from, I can't believe he said that, to, like, thank God he said that.
Starting point is 00:41:42 That's exactly right. The whole point, it doesn't work as a joke if you lose the whole I'm being wrong right now. Well, now it's, I can't believe he believes that. yeah i also maybe it's a jealousy thing did you ever think about that like maybe they're jealous because they didn't have a john stewer and that's what and Tucker carlson is no comparison he's not charismatic at all yeah so it's like i think like right winger's yeah i think maybe they didn't have that because like like he was also like john was charming and fun and entertaining and like it's like all of those things and and there's a lot of criticism of him now because he of all
Starting point is 00:42:20 people knows that that role should have gone to somebody else. Like, that wasn't an old white guy. And he knows that. And it was even addressed in like his first episode back. But he's the only, that's the other thing too, is like our generation also doesn't really want to fucking lead because we know what a shit show it is, what it would take to navigate it to be a person who genuinely wants change. Look what it did to Bernie.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Oh, my God, right? Who wants to be stuck in that position? Nobody. Still looks good. Huh? He looks good. He looks good. He looks animatronic. Don't lie to that old man. He's been through it. I don't know. I just, I don't think that that's, I just don't think it looks appealing to anyone. Yeah. So you're not getting, you're not getting a lot of people who want to get into it.
Starting point is 00:43:06 I think that's fair, and I think that's true. You know, they have Tim Dillon. Of course, he's gay, and a lot of them don't like that. But I just think that there was this weird thing in comedy that changed where saying the wrong thing was fun. But we all knew it. was wrong. Andrew Dice Clay is an example. It was like everyone knew it was wrong to say those things about sex and women but it was fun. And now I feel like there's a shift where if he's making a comeback
Starting point is 00:43:34 and I think people are going to be like yeah, the truth. You know what I mean? It's no longer like, ooh, it's fun to be wrong. It's like he's right. He's correct. Yeah. It's so strange. Yeah, I think what happened is people started taking comedy seriously.
Starting point is 00:43:50 That's all it is. Yep. Is I've said incorrect things before. I mean, I'm about to do a show called Wrong in the Game Show where they dig up shit from your past, which I'm certain I've said things that were insensitive. I'm certain I've said things that are insensitive and are not okay now. Do I say those things now? No, because I also learned. You're going to do this show and you don't know what they found?
Starting point is 00:44:14 I don't know. I find out at the show, yeah. But that's supposed to be the fun. that's supposed to be the fun thing for the audience is for them to watch. How many white dudes are on this show? No, no. Me, another chick and,
Starting point is 00:44:29 and yeah, I don't think there's any white dudes actually. Oh, well, then it's going to be fine. I just thought of one white chick comic here in L.A. who lost a pretty lucrative gig because of an old tweet famously. Oh, yeah, because she was kind of a good point. The lady that wrote for S&L. tweeted out on the beginning of a flight when she landed. She had already lost her job.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Well, I can't pretend like to, that, you know, the idea of taking comedy too seriously. I did as a young fan. John Stewart was my hero. I did as a comic and have as a comic. I can't sit here having a book called Dragon Dixie out of the dark and act like I haven't also taken comedy too seriously. But I wasn't smart enough to realize what it would lead to. you know for sure but that's the other part but i don't mind that i don't mind people trying to use humor to make things better as well just because from the basis of it humor is what gets people to
Starting point is 00:45:31 listen more often more often than not i mean that was a lot of why do you people like people on both sides still quote carlin yep both of them yeah so it's still like they're still they're still very thoughtful funny and right things you can still be funny and right but it's not all it doesn't have to be and I think that's the problem is because some of it is there is also a broad stroke being painted that it's all supposed to be that and it's not yeah yeah and and we've had this conversation for the last 20 minutes under the auspices of right and left and I think that's true to a certain extent but I think it goes beyond that and it goes beyond comedy an example that popped in my head is uh Morgan wallen are you familiar with him he's a country music singer
Starting point is 00:46:14 a video he's he was oh I think I've heard him he was pretty big. He was kind of on his way up. He hosted SNL, which is why maybe why you've heard of me. He was supposed to be on SNL during COVID. And then all these pictures came out of him being out partying and making out with chicks during the height of COVID. And they were like the day before he was supposed to go to New York. And they were like, you can't
Starting point is 00:46:32 come to New York. Clearly have COVID. Anyway, about three weeks after that, a video came out. He was at a party and his buddy was leaving and his buddy was drunk. And he was like screaming and it was like a cell phone video. They're like, they weren't filming him. They were just filming
Starting point is 00:46:47 something, but he yells, you can't leave your drunk, end word, with the A, soft, white guy. White guy saying it to a white guy. And he got canceled. And there was like, you know, oh, he had a drinking problem, like the apology comes out and all that. Well, then his record sales went through the roof. People were so over and angry at cancel culture, especially like country music fans, white, rural Americans, and their hypocrisy that they perceive of it all, that they elevate. That they elevated him to the top. That highlights what I'm trying to get at, which is they'd all say, I think, not all of them. But a lot of them would, at least before all this, would have said, yeah, it's wrong to say the N word. The wrong
Starting point is 00:47:30 became right. It was like he was some sort of hero. Which he wasn't trying to do, it wasn't trying to be, that wasn't, he wasn't, he wasn't even making a point. No, he wasn't making a point. He was calling his friend a derogatory drool. He was just being a frat bro, So it's like, that's what's getting, that's what's like blowing my mind. And I haven't brought this up on any podcast yet. It just kind of came up naturally today because I don't know if I'm quite ready to express it and maybe I'm doing a bad job. But like, it's not just that Dave Chappelle's making points that this person agrees with
Starting point is 00:47:59 and this person disagrees with. Something shifted where saying the wrong thing is applauded. Like as brave, in and of itself. Like, that's odd. Yeah, that's not fun anymore. It's like heroic and that's stupid. And their words, that's gay. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:19 And not because it's a good joke, right? Right. Because it's a good joke. Yeah, I think it's just that it's upsetting is more like that's what celebrated. And they want that. Yeah. They want it to be upsetting. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Yeah, I don't know. It doesn't really make sense to me as far as like what the point of this is to bring joy. At the end of it, the point of it is to bring joy. I mean, if you talk about anybody, right or left, as far as comedians go, or wherever they've been painted, because that's the other thing, too, is people have been put in categories, like, I don't remember CNN called Joe Rogan's club a right-wing club, and he was like, I don't think it. I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I just opened a club. I've always wanted to open a club. There's been, like, a lot of things that have been projected onto people.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I'm not, you know, listen, I'm not saying he's not problematic. Like, I get all that. but at the same time a lot of this doesn't have anything to do with the individuals involved well also that's a right wing city so like that's the you know what I mean but not Austin Austin was the blue dot of the red state
Starting point is 00:49:23 Austin was but it's less so now of course because it's being painted that way and the people the hip like the hippies the old weirdos all those people that live there all a lot of them are leaving because it's not the same cool city at once but I just meant like and they're getting priced out if for whatever reason side spliters Knoxville
Starting point is 00:49:40 was famous back in the day, so anyone from the New Yorker wrote about it, they would have called it a right-wing club. For sure. Because it's like, yeah, that's who you book the people who sell the fucking tickets, dog. Yeah. I just think what bothers me is that, like, used to comedians wrote a joke that they wrote a joke to be funny and they didn't care if it was offensive.
Starting point is 00:50:04 And now they write a joke to be offensive and don't care if it's funny. Like, it's reversed. Do you know what I mean? Yeah, I mean, if you want to talk about Austin, that's kind of my big criticism of that city. Oh, yeah. First of all, it's a young comedy city. You either have people working at Rogan's Club or you have open micers who go on stage just to say every slur they possibly can. Someone went on stage at the creek in the cave last week with swastikas on their body.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Like they took their shirt off and they was all swastikas. They apparently were trying to make some kind of point, but Rebecca banned them. Yeah. I mean, there's still some rational people. That's nice. But that's wild. Yeah. That is wild.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Right. And I think... Again, like, what's the joke? Yeah, there isn't... There isn't one. If you'd be like, you know what had been funny if he was like, you know who hates these? My black wife? Huh?
Starting point is 00:50:55 Especially when she's pegging me. Like, there's funny ways to be like, I used to be this piece of shit. Now it's on my body forever. Yeah, they weren't, by the way, they weren't tattoos. Oh. Dude, yeah. Before anyone listening. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Now, it wasn't like, can you believe I had these tattoos? It was like, I did this for this tonight. Yeah. Yeah, and before anyone listening thinks that what I meant was like, you shouldn't make offensive jokes. That's not what I was saying. Like, I absolutely 100% believe that every single topic, whatever, there is comedy to be made from it.
Starting point is 00:51:26 It's just that people have gotten lazy and they're not trying to be funny. They just think you're not supposed to say said word, so I'm going to do it. But I think it goes beyond comedy. Trump's a hero because he says the wrong thing. Morgan Wallin, who I brought up, was a hero briefly because he said the wrong thing. And I think it's a reaction to like, I do think woke scolds like went a little too far. But I also think it's just like this strange macho, fuck you, I won't do what you. It's like all those people who misinterpreted that song.
Starting point is 00:51:58 They thought they loved raging against the machine until they found out what they actually stood for. And now they're raging for the machine, which is so wild to me. Their only belief is I should be allowed to do whatever I want. And they believe it so strongly that anyone telling them not to is the enemy. And anyone saying fuck you to those people is now their hero. Regardless of skill. And it's just, it's odd. What a beta male thing to want a fucking hero, dude.
Starting point is 00:52:28 I'm so over that. Or follow a theater door. Get that fuck it. Seriously. Like Joe Rogan is the most successful theater act. in the world. What the fuck? We're all pussies.
Starting point is 00:52:42 Everyone who speaks into a microphone is a fucking pussy. Every single one. Andrew Tate might be the only exception and he's an insane person. Truly insane, yeah. There is a comedian, Zoltan. Do you guys know Zoltan?
Starting point is 00:52:59 Know who he is. He has a great joke about how everybody that listens to Joe Rogan wants to be an alpha. He's like, but you're never going to be the alpha because he's your alpha. You do everything Daddy tells you to do.
Starting point is 00:53:16 You buy his products. You listen to whoever he says. You are the ultimate beta because you're listening to what Daddy tells you to do. And a guy who got into the alpha world by commentating on it. Yeah. Doing theater.
Starting point is 00:53:33 And there's nothing right. I got a mic in my face right now. Sorry, go ahead, Corey. It's always cracked me up about dudes who, like, there'll be a dude that, like, posts on Instagram or something. Like, he'll take a selfie of, like, him and seven of his bros. And it's, like, just a bunch of alpha males, you know, out on the prow. And I'm like, dude, do you know how alpha shit?
Starting point is 00:53:53 You can't all be one. Like, all of you can't be one. Like, in your group, there's one of them. And you have the camera in your posting dog. Like, I'm sorry. It heard me for getting into traditional roles here, but you, the woman. Yeah, right. You holding their purses?
Starting point is 00:54:10 It's, uh, I, well, I think, truly, if I'm being completely honest, I think he, he is kind of didn't, I don't think he knew what he was in for. I don't think, like, I don't think, yeah, I don't think he, I don't think he genuinely thought this was going to be like this. Um, I think it's, he thinks it's rad. I think that's part of the reason why he never wants to talk about it on the podcast. Yeah, he owns a city. first it's rare right right like some of the stuff he said I don't want to get into that
Starting point is 00:54:36 because I'll like be talking about people's business but like Rogan like in order to get people to move there important people he said some wild shit to people that if he can back it up he owns Austin yeah I wanted to say this about the comedy thing because I think this is an important point that Anthony
Starting point is 00:54:51 Jesolik he made it to Theo which I think that was cool too that he did this on Theo's podcast he was like our job is to get away with it yeah well I think we've lost that and I don't think we've lost that just in comedy. You look at Trump. You look at Trump's copycats who aren't as good at it. There's this weird
Starting point is 00:55:07 thing of just like, again, you just make the right people mad and you've done the job. That's surreal to me. It doesn't make any sense. It just doesn't make that. And that's the part, that's where you start losing me. Because like I the whole point, it was the benefit.
Starting point is 00:55:23 It's the benefit of the doubt that you don't think this person that's saying these wild things believes these wild things. And that's the part that. Or they know enough, like they realize it's wild enough that they got to be cheeky about it, not like righteous about it. Speaking of, and speaking of which I think
Starting point is 00:55:39 Anthony Jesselnik does a really great job of that. He has the only joke about trans people that I don't think is fucking nauseating. Yeah? Yeah. I remember it vaguely. It's where, I mean, it's still a problematic joke, don't get me wrong. But that's the point of it is, is
Starting point is 00:55:55 the absurdity of it is he's like, I like trans women better than women. And then The joke is, like, he talks about, like, pregnant women. And he's like, fuck pregnant women. I'm not going to do the joke because it's a bastard. Go look at it. It's a great joke.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Sam Talent's got a new special out. Everyone should go watch it. He's been on here before. You guys know and love Sam Talent. The Toads of Moral. He has one where he's like, it's like, it's similar to that. He's like, trans women? Are you shitting me?
Starting point is 00:56:23 A chick that's a dude? That's my 13-year-old dream. And then he does, frankly, some regressive things about, like, you know, like, you know, Like, it's not fucking talking while I'm playing video games, but Sam's so perfect at doing it tongue and cheekly. You know what I mean? I love that. Yeah. Getting away with it.
Starting point is 00:56:40 Exactly. That's the whole thing is getting away with it. It's getting, being able to talk about something that is not your wheelhouse to people who are that thing and them going, you're not a piece of shit. Yeah. Ultimately, at the end of the day. Yeah. So, and it's like, and for me, because I care more, maybe it's a people-pleasy thing, but I care more about people than I care
Starting point is 00:57:01 about needing to have a take on something is like what I've learned from people over time is to let them talk. Let them make the jokes about it. So I love when like for, I mean, there's like, oh, fuck, I'm so bad at this. Having, being awful with names always makes me seem less credible.
Starting point is 00:57:21 But there's a trans comedian that has a fucking just, it's just, it's a beautiful joke. And I can't, again, I'm not going to do it. But it's going to be a bastard. but I would rather hear that joke from them than from Anthony Jesselnick. Jamie Bride, Robin Tran. Ian Harvey with Ed.
Starting point is 00:57:37 I love Robin Tran, but I think it... Is it Jamie McBride? I think it's Jamie Bride. I think it's Jamie Bride is one of my favorite comics, period. Mm-hmm. She's so funny. And Abe, there's Abe as well. I just met Abe recently.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Fairly? Yes, Abe Fairley, thank you. Am I good with names? I think so. Trans-comic bingo. I'm awful with names. What's in the middle? What's the free space? It's a safe space, Drew.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Ah, there we go. It all cut full circle. I didn't mean for this to become super inside baseball folks listening. I'm so sorry. No, no. And I apologize to everyone if it was. It's my fault. It's because I opened with Naples. Well, I was trying, no, I was trying to bring it broader, though. And I think we did a pretty good job. I mean, I think Trump's the most obvious example where it's like relishing and being wrong is the new,
Starting point is 00:58:29 is a new trend in America, at least on the internet and in politics and entertainment. And it's so odd. It's like they think it's punk rock to just be a dick. And that's not good. Like that cannot be good long or short term. Yeah, I don't know. I think there's just a different definition of wrong. That's all.
Starting point is 00:58:55 The whole thing is the getting away with it is people not thinking are an actual. shitty person. That's like being wrong to be funny, not to be a hero. Yeah. Yeah, man. I mean, that's a, I genuinely like making people feel good. I genuinely like to be a little bit of a dick. Big time saying.
Starting point is 00:59:17 You know, so it's like, I don't know. I think, I think those are funny assholes have always been, I've had a huge place in my heart for those people. And now it's like, it's either one or they. the other, it seems. You can either be an asshole or you could be funny because a lot of the assholes, they're not being real funny, you know? And then a lot of it, there's, the part of it I also hate is like people, you,
Starting point is 00:59:41 you being branded as an asshole by association. And like, my example for that is like Dan Soder. Dan Soder is like one of the biggest sweethearts in stand-up. Sam Talent, one of the biggest sweetheart. He's got a new special out too. It's good, too. I already watched it. It's good.
Starting point is 00:59:55 It's good. But it's like, uh, it's just who they hang out. Sure. They like bros. And they're bros that like pros. Well, and also, nah, I'm not going to say that. I think what happened is a lot of times the group chat became the podcast.
Starting point is 01:00:14 Yeah, 100%. That's all it is. 100%. And then people started getting lauded for it, not for being funny, but for finding an audience that agreed with them. And some people ran with that, and they ran real, real far with it. You know, and they weren't aware like a Bill Burr was, had that self-awareness of like,
Starting point is 01:00:34 if you love me because of my misogyny in my act, we aren't actually going to get along. Right. We're not going to be friends. The first time I ever met him, I was a baby comic. It was in Orlando. And I came to the show and I was like, I was like, oh, yeah, I'm Mr. Burbs.
Starting point is 01:00:53 So a big fan. And will you sign this? It was like a poster of his. He was like, well, you sign it. Did you do his accent to him? That's what you're doing right now. I'm making fun at me because I was like so starstruck by him. And I was like, well, you sign it to you, you dumb cunt.
Starting point is 01:01:06 He's like, why the fuck would I call you a dumb cunt? He's like, you seem real sweet. Why would I? And I was like, I don't know. That thought it was a weird thing. He's like, no. I've heard you say that before. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:17 He's like, yeah, about dumb cunts. Yeah. But that was me like being like, oh, you, you misogyny is your thing. He's like, no, it's not my thing. You're the dumb cunt guy. Yeah. Dude. We've all experienced a version of that, though.
Starting point is 01:01:32 We're a fan like, sees us correctly or incorrectly. And it's like, no. No. No. Corey, fart on my book. Yeah. Well, for a long time, it was Corey to do a shot with me. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 01:01:46 And then, like, after months of that, like, Corey was like, man, these people are going to make me do shots with them. I'm like, well, they're not going to make you, bud. But yeah. You could say, though. Yeah. That's what they're going to kill you. That's what I stopped doing.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I stopped doing shots with audiences. I'll do them every once in a while, but it's a shot. Yeah. You get one, especially if it's an early show. I had a guy that was, I kept saying that he was former CIA. And where was it? I was just somewhere in Missouri outside of St. Louis. And there was this old dude sitting by himself having a cocktail, easy peasy.
Starting point is 01:02:23 And I was like, what the fuck is with this guy? I go, what are you doing here by yourself? He's like, oh, I'm here with my family, but they're all doing, so I didn't want to do the thing, so I wanted to come and get some laughs in. I was like, oh, okay, so you're like, you work for the government, you want people to know. So this sounds like a fake story is what this, because that guy, usually in a family setting, that guy's got to be present, you know? If you're on a family vacation, Papa Bear is not the one that gets to disappear for a few hours.
Starting point is 01:02:49 Yeah, mom's going to let him. No, there's no fucking way. So he got, so I kept busting this guy's balls. So what do you? What do you? CIA? What do you? What do you know about Area 51?
Starting point is 01:02:59 Like, what part of you? What secrets you keep in? And I kept ripping this guy so much so that he, instead of buying just me a shot, I go, no, fuck that. I go, you got government money. Buy everybody here a shot. So he bought everyone in the audience a shot. No shit.
Starting point is 01:03:12 Two shots. Thank you. He bought two shots. So he bought everybody around a shots. And then I was like, and then he went and bought another. And I was like, I know you work for the fucking government. This is the cover up. isn't it.
Starting point is 01:03:25 That's an alpha. That's a true, that's a true alpha right there where you're quiet, you don't need, I mean, that's, like, it's almost like these people
Starting point is 01:03:34 never studied Apex Predators. It's like, that's the whole, supposed to be the whole thing, which is on all their branding. That's what you say, which is weird, you'd think they would have been the ones to study.
Starting point is 01:03:43 Yeah, that's the idea that they're selling. Like, you talk about these animals, but, and then like the context of an alpha, in a pride or in anything like that, there is a behavior, and none of you are exempt, exuding this. Yeah, I'm not sure I believe it's real, but if it is, I am certain that no
Starting point is 01:03:58 Alpha's ever called themselves that. I'm not even sure if they've ever said the word. You don't need to because you don't need to fucking think about it, Daddy, you know? Well, it's almost, yeah. I'm sorry. No, I feel like I took over your podcast today. We wanted you too. That's why we had you here. Would you say you alpha bitched us? I'm so sorry. Why? Plug your shit, boo. Give it to us, Daddy. Tell us where to find you, Daddy. Peg us with your information.
Starting point is 01:04:29 There it is. That's a good one. But protect us from the things we don't need to know. That's ultimately what it comes down to. And like, that's always been my role in the comedy community is protecting the ladies around, you know, getting in the getting in the way of bad behavior. I don't know if that's alpha. It's just me being considerate, you know. Yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:04:50 I don't know. But I tell you what, a lot of those dudes don't fuck with me. No. No. Well, predators know who the prey is. Yeah. And you're not that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:03 Yeah. You know what I mean? I try to work on that behavior, too. Well, there can be a third thing. You don't have to be predator or prey. You could just be fucking hanging out on the serengetty. Like the bulls. What's the bulls that none of the predators will fuck with unless they're like the little,
Starting point is 01:05:21 Oh, yeah, the big, not the wildebeest. What's the ones with the big horn? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Producer man, do you know the name of that? I'm sorry, Aaron. Aaron, do you know the name of that? The Big Five in South Africa. One of them's a...
Starting point is 01:05:32 The Wildebeest? I don't think it's a wildebeest are the ones. Like, those, they eat the babies of those. Oh, geez. I don't remember. Maybe it's the one with the big horns. Antelope? No, it takes, like, a whole pride of them.
Starting point is 01:05:44 No, it's something buffalo. And it's not related to, but... Water buffalo? Water buffalo? No. No, it's not a buffalo. It's the ones with the big... It's the one with the big...
