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 the 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 anymore, Rocket Money will help you cancel it.

Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create, custom budgets based on your past spending. Rocket Money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps. Premium features.

I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was probably like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. and I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that. Also, a fun one, I'd said it before,

but I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friend's faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies. You know, those weren't a little like the Q-ball looking twin fellas. Yeah, so that was money.

What was that a reply gift for? Just when I did something stupid. Something fat, I think, and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first, 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.

had a proxy you know where like if you say this they if you cross the line too many times will kill you but you get a couple points and we'll just kill someone you love. That's okay. Here's going to write another apology letter to the family of mock mood. 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, but they got three big old dicks that you can suck. So, here's something that's relevant to this show's interest, I feel like. So is Zach Brian being canceled by Patriots right now?

Is that something that's happening? He's based on three comments. He's gone woke. Yeah. Dude, I'm so hype about this. I have a real personal interest in it. Well,

keep going. Tell me more. Okay. I mean, we're going to get past all of the patriotism stuff. We can circle back to that. But when they attempted to cancel this man the first time, I don't know if you guys recall this.

We talked about that on when he got arrested. No, it was. No, he got canceled from the left. A girlfriend thing. A woman named Brianna chicken fry. And I thought you were talking about Zach Brown the whole time, I think because her name was chicken fried or whatever.

And I was so confused. Which is funny because it just went the other way around. Like she named herself that and then just decided to go get her a country store. So just to recap for everybody, a woman named Brianna Chicken Fry who's from fucking Rhode Island. Island and his Italian, was Dayton, Zach Bryan accused him of abuse. Then the details of which came out, he threw her phone and yelled at her and told her what to wear on the red carpet supposedly. And then she started a podcast that was abuse victim-centered.

And that thing is no more. Then she started putting out disc tracks against him on barstool. In my own home, that caused. I won't say a rift, but just like a week-long. And let me tell you another thing about a bitch Yankee named Brianna Chicken Fry and where she can go. And my whole point the whole time was, we got to believe all women, but as Bill Burr, rest and peace said, or 85% of them. And also, you're describing shitty behavior, but not monstrosity type behavior. I don't think you can start a podcast because a guy yelled at you.

Yeah. And then now that he's back and he's saying fuck ice and copster bastards, he's trying to be canceled from the right. And I'm like, let me tell you another thing, Andy, that we haven't addressed on this. Where's her podcast? It's been four months and it's gone. Right. Well, it's what I said then.

It's what I said it now. If a bitch from Andrews Tennessee started calling herself Shoney Pepperoni and then said someone slapped around, we'd be like, I don't know, maybe it was the pills, And then a week later, she was like, well, he didn't slap me. He yelled at me. We'd be like, you don't say, you don't fucking say, Brianna chicken fry from Connecticut. Well, anyway, I'm back.

I think what I said to Andy this morning was, what her was she said to him when he threw the phone, huh? You think maybe she said something like, why don't you go back to the Oklahoma mud where you came from? You square jawed no talent piece of shit. And it made him throw the phone one time. Did you think maybe that happened? No one's ever thrown a phone after someone said,

hey, what should we do for dinner? You know what I mean? No one's ever done that. I don't think. By the way, to go back to me. Maybe like, you know, like a Joe Pesci character and, you know,

lived in the 50s or something. You know what I mean? That's fair. He told you three times what I wanted for dinner. Yeah, exactly, right. Someone. You shouldn't even have to ask. You should just know,

but you fucking who would. And you go throw a cordy director on that, like, Ryan, other than he's Taylor Swift for boys who wear square-toe cowboy boots. And then all his songs sound the same, which is true, by the way, I've owned several pairs of square-toed boots.

I just ain't having it. I ain't having it from here on out. That man climbed a double barbed wire fence recently in an attempt to whip Gavin Adcock's bitch ass. And now he puts out a song talking about, and he's, dude, he joined the Navy because he was poor and didn't have any better ideas. Right, that happens.

It's legit. And again, going back to Brought a chicken fry or whatever, He might have been problematic. I'm not suggesting there's no proof of that. I'm just saying that when they come for somebody, and then the details start getting hazy, and then they start dropping disc tracks and merch. She tried to sell merch based on her victimhood.

And then now all the patriots are coming from him. It's the same goddamn thing, which is they don't want a poor boy to shine and tell the fucking truth. They just don't want it. Yeah. And you know, too, not for nothing, but like, as we've seen a million times, whether it be, you know, country star or a comedian or an actor, when someone gets in some, like, female trouble, like, oh, you were abusive or whatever,

they often tend to lean the other way and go get with the Patriots because they know that they're going to, you know, welcome them. They're going to welcome them, and he's not doing, so that's to me says, like, this guy's just being, I guess the Patriots should be mad at him. They're the only ones who had his back when he was slapping women around. But that, but that makes me like him even more, you know, that it makes me believe that he's like, no, he's always just said his own truth or whatever because he's not considering that.

Like he's like, I don't get, fuck, okay, maybe I did that, but you know, fuck ice. They don't hit it. Jokes aside, I think he's probably an asshole. I think we have enough evidence of that. But the song is hitting for me and I think he makes good music. Not great.

I think he's overrated, but I think he makes really good music. And I'm pumped. You did make a good point about who was defending him back then. It was me and then a gang of race. And so I commend him. You know, I think he's just Shane Gillis, man. I think he's like they do stuff together.

They hit for each other. I think he's just Shane Gillis where you go, hey, maybe sometimes people have thoughts that they mean, but they don't want to be involved in the culture war. Maybe there are people out there who are sincere but different than me. And because of their sincerity, they're not going to fall on one side of the fence or the other. Maybe a guy said a slur several times in a joke, but also thinks racism's real. Like, maybe that guy exists. Right.

I mean, a lid for every pot, dude. And like, man, it's so funny thinking about you and Andy arguing about that. I mean, it's right. I mean, it's, let me go back. My own definition, it's abuse. Let me, I was about to say, let me go back. It's so hilarious for me to think of you dominating Andy in a conversation about this. But, like, because I'm with you, too, on that Bill Burr's.

like, I believe 85% of women. Something that really, like, helped me was, because I kept hearing, you know, believe all women, believe all women. I was like, okay, now, there's a lot of victims out there, but, like, I don't like the idea of just if a woman says something, that means it's true. And then someone said, well, how about this? How about this? Instead of believe all women, take all women's accusations seriously.

Like, don't just push them aside. And I was like, okay, I can get with that. You're right. You shouldn't just immediately go, this bitch, she's lying. But at the same time, don't be like, this guy's, definitely hit her because pepperoni tits said that she did. That's insane. If we're doing sincerity now, I'll tell you how I really feel about that,

because I've thought a lot about it even since the last time we talked about Bill Burr's line. I think it's believe 85% of women if there's fame involved. If there's not fame involved, we can jack it up to 95. Absolutely. If it is fame involved, you can knock it down to 80 for me. Anytime there's fame involved, I'm kind of going, all right, so that's her legal name, Breonna Chicken Brough. Right.

Right. Like with when it's just like, you know, my aunt, it's like, well, what does my aunt have to gain by defaming my uncle who is nothing? Maybe she just wants to destroy that motherfucker because, you know, that hits for them to do sometimes. He's done it to himself. He don't need no help is what I'm saying. You know what I mean? Like, you know, but I'm just saying, you know, like I talk to divorce lawyers and shit. No, I know, man. Yeah, but that rarely involves sexual or physical assault. Those instructions come from, you know, very different places. They come from very normal ones with, like, vindictive people do vindictive things.

Right. Whatever. I feel like I've walked us. I feel like I opened a door and y'all just fucking. No, no, no. I was, I was about to say that it's very funny to me that, like, I was like, so what about Zach Brown's new woke lyrics of Drew? He's like, dude, that fucking bitch has said all that shit about him fucking months ago.

And then just 12 straight minutes of that. Yeah. while briefly alluding to the thing that just happened along. I told you. I said it. You did. You did acknowledge that that was about to happen. He did.

He said, we got to go somewhere before we come back. I feel how you're calling me out and it's appropriate. As the fucking resident feminist or whatever here on the well-red podcast, yeah, man, like, you should get pissed off when it,

when people do shit. Like, when, like, even afterwards, she centered herself and was like, like, we're going to have a podcast for victims, which she didn't follow through with. Also, what a terrible podcast that would be to listen to.

My point is, like, that makes a way from the conversation. It makes us be able to Kool-Aid Man through the door I opened. Yeah. Well, anyway, as far as the song goes, right. I think it's pretty easy for him to claim, if he wants to later, that, like, the narrator has these thoughts. He says, he calls cops, cocky bastards, and then he just does almost a throwaway line of going to beat down your door. We're fading in the red, white, and blue.

But, like, it's hard for me to imagine anyone honestly looking at the state of things and being like, well, this is good for America. No, I know. But they clearly do, but I think that all the time. That's what I was going to say about him. It's like, I don't know. I'm not been, like, I've, you know, heard those first couple of songs that broke him or whatever in that first album about his mama or whatnot.

And that all hit for me. But then that was around the time that my, you know, early onset, Papal said in. and so I haven't like kept up with him or nothing. But just based on all that and what I knew about him, you know, his background and all that, he like still hit for me as a concept and whatnot. And I just don't think that it's like you said, I think it's just Shane Gillis.

I think the same thing about Shane Gillis is just like, yeah, just a generally like reasonable person. Someone is not like going to, you know, just like pick your, you have your team picked and then so whatever they do, it hits for you no matter what. Like, yeah, I don't know about Zach Bryant. It's like you said a guy about Shane.

You're like, oh, you can say racist slurs while fucking around on a podcast, but still I actually think racism is bad. And it's like, yeah. Yeah. I know a bunch of other people like that. Yeah, right. Exactly. But he, uh, but like Shane Gillis, I think, you know, he turned down the Saudi festival money

and publicly said he did. They offered him double the- Talked about how we're stupid. They offered him double the amount. and he was just like, isn't that the like the 9-11 guys, right? Like, yeah,

I mean, as I was going to say, I do think that was the conservative side of him. I think it's very, it's like, it is very funny for a guy to go, you know, who did 9-11 first versus another guy,

Mark Merrin going, isn't that the people who killed that woke journalist? Right. Like, it is interesting which one of those was your first. No, I hear you. And that's actually,

I don't know if me and Trey talked about this on putting on airs or whatever, but like, it's so infuriating that like for years, you know, these people were just like, we want to say racist things. Let us say racist things. And I'm like,

why can't y'all be so racist that you think going to Saudi Arabia is bad? You know what I mean? Like, why are they trying? Now they're all of a sudden these motherfuckers are being inclusive. And it's like, no, this is the time I want your papal to come out and say, fuck these goddamn, you know,

yeah, it's the money. No, you're right. And that's true, you're right, Drew. And that truly is like, let's just admit it. That's the conservative value. When they say conservative values, it's literally value. There's one more value in America that is mostly conservative,

but I think it's an American value. And this is where it got conflated with the sort of, I'm going to vote for Trump because I want to be able to say retard again. Right. They say free speech, but all they mean, and I mean this genuinely, I'm not trying to like gotcha. Like genuinely what they meant, and they were calling it free speech, and they were saying they cared about free speech

is I want to be able to do what I want. Right. Now, there are times we are wanting to be able to do what you want, brushes up against people who want to suppress your free speech, but those are not the same thing. That's all this is. If you say to how can you be so pro-free speech and then you go to a country, no, no, no.

For them, as they experience it, what's happening is, well, someone told me I couldn't say what I wanted back then, so I hated them. Fuck the woke lives. And now someone's telling me I can't go over there and do what I want, which is take money to do my comedy. Fuck those people, too. They genuinely see that as the same exact thing,

which means it's proof for a lot of them that there's no engagement with what free speech actually means. The other excuse, which I predicted correctly, coming from like the Burrs and the Louis Cays, they got convinced before they ever said yes that this was like some sort of noble, almost liberal thing they were doing. we are part of opening up this backwards-ass place.

Dude, that, that, I don't know which one of them figured that out or if it was parallel thinking or about a public. I think they all shared that pit that came up with it or whatever, but whenever they landed on that, it actually makes it even worse for me. Yeah, yeah, me too. Because it's like, because now it's like, you're going up your own ass about having done it.

Like dude, just fucking say. Like Tim Dillon before they kicked him off, he literally was like, they're paying me enough to look the other way. He was like, they're chopping off journalist heads to the right. I'm looking to the left because they gave me this much money. Fuck,

fuck if you like it or not. And it's like, that's honest. It's like, that's what just say, look, it gave me a crazy amount of money and I'm doing it. But to try to act like,

no, actually what you don't understand is I'm a hero in this scenario. Well, then do it for free. They believe it. That's so fucking crazy to me. And again, it just makes it worse. Here's the pitch. Let me make the pitch for you from Dave Becky.

And by the way, Dave Becky is the rep for most of these people. At three arts, right? Is that what it is? So, let me, I'm Dave Becky. Here's what I say. Look, you look at history of any country that's opening up, China, Japan, there is this transitional period where American entertainers have helped that process along. And there's no reason you can give me right now not to be a part of that because everything you can say bad about them is what these new people, these young people in the regime are trying to get away from.

It's exactly why they're having you come over there. And I've been talking with them. I've got it down to where there's only two restrictions on your speech. When we started, there was 15. They are making progress. The only counter to that is, no, I'm being used. Right. But you've got to be kind of savvy to see that, I think, immediately.

Right. And or you got to not want to believe it. And if you give me a million reasons. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or believe it. Listen, the first time somebody would point it out to you, sure. But if you're not engaged in that, And I'm not saying these people are or aren't.

I have no idea what Bill Burr knew about it. And I'm not defending it. I've been all over Bill Burr for two weeks. I just cut a promo on his ass. But I'm saying if you aren't engaged in that, until someone points it out to you, you could, because what someone can say is,

the regime cannot be defined, you know, is Nancy Pelosi the same as Donald Trump? Same size tits, am I right? Hey. Yeah, but not. So the lie that you tell your client is, so the liberal version of their government, which I'll admit is not that liberal, wants you there. They are trying to modernize their country.

Why not be a part of that? Right. But it's not just like Khashoggi or whatever a few years back or whatever. Like very recently another journalist was killed by them. A couple months ago. Right. Very, very recently. Also, what's up with women there like right now?

You know, I know that a couple of years ago, they let them start driving. So I guess maybe that's to your point. They're getting better, you know. But like I'm saying, I totally hear what you're, because I said that people on my Patreon asked me if I, when I this all first came up, I was like, look, I know how I am. I could see myself being talked into believing, especially if there was a huge paycheck involved, that like, no, this is basically what you just said. It's like, this is, they're trying to do better and this is part of that or whatever.

But I just feel like, I don't know, it makes for a good rationalization, but there's no actual evidence of that. I mean, again, maybe a little better than they were 10 years ago or whatever, sure, but still like real bad. No, I agree. Like right now, it's still real bad. Well, and then like, I don't know how you could, if you really looked into it at all, that you could actually believe that any of that would be the case. Because everybody knows what they're really doing is their entertainment. oil can't last forever. They're trying to get into entertainment and have cultural influence and all that.

Golf and fucking comedy and now they're, they just, oh, video games, they just fucking bought, EA, one of the biggest video games in China. Right. Which is to not open up the country to any scrutiny or any outside influences, but to open up the country to business, which requires a PR campaign. Yeah.

And I don't think you have to be that savvy to see that. Right. So I'm not really defending them. I'm just telling you what happened. The other thing that Bill said that bothers me more, because this is on its face horseshit. And I had to think about it and I had to look into it because he said it. He was like, it was fucking taxi drivers and citizens.

I mean, the diplomats were there. There's nothing you could do about that. But it's just like, there were 8,000 people there. And I was like, well, I don't believe you shouldn't perform in Saudi Arabia. Right. That's not a belief I have. I believe you shouldn't perform in Saudi Arabia. for the king under the rule that you can't make fun of the king.

Yeah, if they just had a chuckle hut there, go for it. It's me and Corey talked about this on POA last week, but it's another thing when it very first came up, I thought, you know, a thought that entered my head was like, well, you've been asked a similar question many times before by like our fans, whenever North Carolina is fucking with trans people or whatever else, and they're like, and we have a show in Riley or something, and people are like, you're not going to cancel that?

Like, you don't think you should boycott North Carolina right now or whatever, we were always like, no, that's insane because the people that are going to be at our show, especially like they hate that just as much as we do. And it's like you're punishing them for what their government does, which isn't cool. And it's like, if Bill Burr just made a tour

stop in fucking Saudi Arabia or anywhere over there just sold tickets to come to some like Corey said, the fucking chuckle-hutter or whatever like theater, I don't think I'd have any kind of problem with it at all really necessarily. I know I wouldn't. Because of that, because of that

rationale, but it's like you said, that isn't what this was. This is a concerted like fucking entertainment washing PR campaign on behalf of this brutal human rights abusing fucking totalitarian government they have over there.

And people were paid in blood money to participate in it. Yeah. Yeah. And then the final thing I'll say, a lot of commentators, I saw two that I like. One is an Egyptian comedian, Bissim

what's by Sime's last name And it was, you said Yes Yeah he was the He got deemed the Egyptian John Stewart During the Arab Spring He lives in L.A.

And does a lot of shows I'm like he He's very funny Like he always crushes to it It's like comedians and cars Is one of my favorite I see him get up there and do Like he'd be doing like political shit

In front of a fucking drunk ass Like improv crowd or whatever Like smart stuff And he like hits with it Oh yeah he's really I think he's, I mean, I think he's brave. Anyway, he had this take, and then this guy also really like named Gino the Ghost, who's a music producer, but he does like hot take clips and he's just really funny or he has a really funny rider. They both had this take, and I think this one is, I've been surprised by how many smart people either believe this or believe we can't see through it.

And I'm not sure which one it is. but when you say oh you're going to turn your nose down at Saudi Arabia like America's that much better that's not the comp right the comp is if you perform for something put on by the Trump administration

and one of the rules is you can't make fun of the Trump administration right that's the only direct comp in my opinion yeah and I think most Americans comedian other than comedians other than like Rob Schneider and Jim Prooper and those guys now would be like, no, fuck that. Especially the I'm not allowed to make any jokes part. You know what I mean?

Like if it was their own country and their own president and everything, I think most of them would be like, no, man, I can't. That'd be a huge bitch move in front of all these people that know it. Yeah, I mean, just for one. That kind of gets me to where I was going with that point. If you saw Theo Vaughn do that, if you saw Rob Schneider, especially do that, you wouldn't blink because you'd be like, well, yeah, he's on board. He didn't change.

He didn't give up any part of that. beliefs for that. Right. So if y'all aren't capping, as the kids say, if you're not jumping through these logical hoops, my conclusion is you are in line with that stuff. You know what I'm saying? Just like I would assume Rob Schneider likes Trump. That's why he would agree to do that in that scenario.

So I think that, and when they say, no, you don't understand. Like, I know that it needs to be a discussion, but things are getting better. it sounds like you actually approve of the Saudi government that's what it actually sounds like I mean you're there making them laugh they're sitting up there like Burr even said which is like oh yeah the princes they were enjoying the show I don't give a fuck

you know like what is that oh you know you don't understand the princes really liked our show I'm sure they at least acted like they did they just spent a gazillion dollars on it but like why are you why would that make you proud to entertain the I can go ahead and tell you all right now that I would be so

upset with myself if a prince liked my fucking show. I mean, unless I was really giving him hell, but I was doing, I felt like I was doing such a good job that he still let me live. I was about to say,

if you performed for a prince and you came back alive, I'd be like, I don't even know him. I don't even know that. So on that note, let's shout out one person that everyone's been shouting out.

Apparently, you know, one of the people that got the most heat was Jessica Kierston. Jessica Kirsten is a lesbian, Jewish woman. And,

and, over there. She made an apology, she made an apology where she essentially was like, I believe what we were just talking about, the argument of like, this is progress, they're trying.

But I now see maybe I was wrong. But apparently while there, I'll pass my check. Apparently while there, two people in the area from the diplomatics. So two people part of the government, not like the main guy, but two people got up to like go to the bathroom or something

in the middle of her show while she was, doing a joke about grinder. And she said, what are you guys doing? Going to check your grinder real quick. And what sucks, let me tell you what sucks about that, though. Doesn't it like almost, can't the rest of them fly under her balls? We're like, see, we're doing real comedy. It was like, well, no, Jessica was.

Right. Do you think at that moment, that was like a, that was just a comedic instinct? And as soon as she said it, there was part in the back of her mind. It was like, oh, shit. You know what I meant? Yeah, because you'll say anything when you're up there hitting. But let me tell you what I also think. That would be no different than me doing that in a fucking right wing room outside of Chattanooga at a bar.

It would crush because the joke would not be, L.O.L, this place is crazy. You guys don't believe in gays. The joke would be ha ha ha ha, fags. Exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which hits. Well, I don't know if it does or not. Well, I'm for a crowd.

You get a pop. You know what I mean? Yeah, you're going to get a pop. Yeah, you're going to get a pop, dude. But then you might also get popped outside the club, you know, which I've been on the other side. But you didn't because she and she really was in that moment being homophobic, which she can't be as a lesbian. I know that, but you understand what I'm saying. The joke is get a little of these two homoes.

Yeah, right. With the bravery lies in, hey, you just accused two very powerful people of being gay in a place where you're not allowed to be gay. Yeah, you're not. Right. Like, you can't, you can't be that. Or talk shit. You know what they might have done. is whoever booked her specifically, maybe they killed that person with me.

I bet. I bet. Everybody had a proxy, you know, where like if you say this, if you cross the line too many times, we'll kill you. But you get a couple points and we'll just kill someone you love. That's okay. I guess to write another apology letter to the family of Mockmood. They're going to be. They're just stabbing them in the next.

account. I mean, fast food. It costs an arm and a leg to go out. You know what I mean? And with all these apps, you've got to have this app for this. You've got to have this app for that. It's like, I don't know, it's very difficult. Don't you think, Trey? Nowadays, on the one hand, you would think it'd be easier because of apps and all that stuff. You know, you can pull your bank up at any time, but still he feels like you don't know where all the money's going ever, you know, and you can't keep up with it.

There's just too much going on. One of the things that makes it incredibly difficult is the way that speaking of apps, All these subscription services work out here nowadays in these streets. Anytime you find something cool on your little dude dad there, your phone, you get it for the free trial. You think, yeah, I'm not going to pay for this. I'm not an idiot.

You don't want to see the ads on there anymore or whatever and end up saying, all right, yeah, sure, I'll subscribe to this. What is it? $3 a month. That's fine. I have a lot of fun with this.

and other famous reaction gifts, which I did get some good use out of for, you know, a couple weeks or so, and then I moved on to new ways of trying to torment Cho. Mine was like Swedish Netflix or something. It was something real dumb. I also, I had a drum, a, learn to play the drums app, which I've never once picked up a drumstick. I got that for my son who wanted to learn to play the, but of course, that lasted four days. and then it was over, but I'd paid for this drums app.

It was on a recurring yearly thing. I didn't even know or realize that. Boom, gave them $100, hundreds of dollars for literally nothing. But Rocket Money put a stop to that for me.

I don't even know if they make cintaburst anymore, but that was my favorite gum. I liked it. Got a little spice to it, you know, and when you're doing nicotine or anything like that, you want it to burn, you know, in my opinion. But I got my mama hooked on the mocha ones. My mama, who has, by the way, never smoked her vapid day in her life, just decided she wanted to try nicotine. And so I got her on the Zipix, and she loves them.

Warning, nicotine is an addictive chemical. Zipmore, smoke less with Zippics, nicotine, toothpicks. Skiu! And we're back. So, I know it's been a million years ago now, but the, uh, the Zach Brian thing, it's like,

I see a lot of people say it, you know, what were they, oh, Zach Ryan just bud lighted himself and all that, like that type of thing. It's like, for one thing,

but light, like still, they're good. They're okay. Yeah, right. And secondly, you know, also,

specifically in his, like, Tyler Childers still. still hits perfectly. Jason Isbell's, you know, the darling of all darling. Well, I don't, but you know, he has been. He still does fine. All these people are fine. Right. Yeah. Yeah. And so the idea that I don't know, because I think they just know that he's like, they think he's like kind of a broie looking dude. He's in the country world, whatever, like that he just really torpedoed himself. But there's so much precedent for that just not being at all the case. And again, I think there's

plenty of people who'd argue that like, sure, it might. limit, you know, he ain't going to do Morgan Wallin numbers if he's going to be all woke and not say the N-word. So he is going to make less money, but he's going to still make plenty of money while also not having like a awful fan base that he can't stand and put up with that shit and everything. It's like some people, going back, it's on theme for this episode, like some people all they care about is the money and so they'll sell out and do whatever. But other people have like some actual integrity. And it's right at some point being legit rich. like that's enough and you don't have to do anything.

And doing what you love? And doing what you love. Like being rich is fucking doing what you love and sleeping at night. And being like to understand something real quick. He was selling more than Morgan Wallen. He just broke a record. Okay. He is huge.

No, we know that. But my thing is like some people can't, not everybody, obviously, but there's some people that can't fathom that the goal for every. I mean, like obviously, if you could, everybody that's in the entertainment world, I don't want to say everybody, but a lot of people, if they go, hey, if I could snap your fingers and make you as big as Dave Chappelle in comedy or Taylor Swift and music,

most people go, oh, that'd be amazing. But these people can't fathom that, like, that's not the only thing that drives people to make music and have this career. But they really do look at it as like, if you're not McDonald's, then you're not a successful restaurant. That's how their, that's how their brain works, you know? 100%. I guess I was actually trying to, like, agree with Trey. Like, I was trying to say, like, yeah, he has more money than you might think, though. Oh, I'm not, yeah, for sure.

He just broke a record, I think back to back for most at a live show because he was doing these stadium gigs. He's almost as big as Morgan Wallen. Right. Because you don't make money selling records anymore anyway. You make money touring. So you got to look at the live. Right. More than the record sales and stuff.

Because there are plenty of people by Morgan Wallen record that won't go see him because they're old and they know he won't say that in word in public because he's scared. You're right. He's number eight on the list in the past year or, well, last year. year, obviously, number one was Taylor Swift. And then where's Morgan on that? He's, uh, I don't know. I mean, he's not on this top. He's not the top fan.

Yeah, but it goes, uh, Taylor Swift, number three on. No, number three, I find, no, number three, I find surprising. I mean, she does hit for me. Number one, Taylor Swift, number two, cold play. Number three, pink was number three last year. Hell yeah, good for pink, dog. Number four, Luis Miguel, who I assume is another Latino superstar, which we could talk about Latino superstar.

This doesn't include any of them. Let's just put that out there. Pink black is, or black pink or whatever the fuck they are. Kill it all. Yeah, because they don't even have to leave their country. Bruce Springsteen, Rolling Stones, number seven, bad bunny, the other Latino superstar I was alluding to. And the number eight, Zach Bryan last year. And then Metallica, number nine, Madonna reunion tour or celebration tour, number 10.

The thing you got to realize about the way Morgan Wall and tours, if I'm not mistaken, too, is, He'll do like, okay, here's a 10-show run in stadiums in Knoxville, South Bend, Alabama, Florida. And then he sells out these stadiums and people go, holy shit, this dude's doing stadiums. Yeah, on a 10-run tour. Yeah. And that's nothing to shake your nose at. No, that's amazing. I could never.

He just been doing it right all the time. Okay. All right. Let me go back to that real quick. Fuck. Where did it go? I just wanted to say he has fuck you money. No, you're correct.

I know, but I just want to... It's probably one of the three biggest country music stars in the world right now, at a time where country music's never been more popular. Morgan Wall... Okay, I was thinking I was like, I don't know. I didn't know if that's last year. That's 2024. That, you know, that's...

2025 is ongoing. I was like, I don't even know if Morgan Wallen was on tour in 2024 or how much he was. According to whatever, right now, Morgan Wallen is on tour in 2025. and Zach Bryan last year at number eight grows to $199 million on tour in 2024. Morgan Wallen is on pace for 2025 to make $300 million on tour this year. Which would put him at number four on last year's list

under Taylor, Coldplay, and Pink. Point still made. Well, no, but that sounds about right to me that he's about two-thirds as popular as the most popular guy in the genre. And that's without, saying the N-word or doing these bullshit. I was about to say, and he still feels...

I hate New York. No, I hear you, but like, it's kind of wild because, like, I, you know, I don't know as much about him as you do, but I did know that, like, no, he's not just this little indie guy anymore. Like, he's very popular, but, like, he still very much feels that way compared to Morgan Wallen. You know what I mean? He seems less...

And I think this is attributed to his style. He seems less polished. He seems less PR'd. He's, you know, he just, like, it's wild to be in the place that he's at and still come as unfiltered as he is. Well, let me say this about Morgan Mullen. I can't believe I'm not saying anything positive or even that could be cast as positive about him. But both of those guys among the most popular country acts right now that I can think of all the top of my head, I might be able to come up with one if I keep going down the list, like maybe Lany Wilson when we get down to the second tier.

But up here, those two dudes are the most, like, came from a small town. and made their dreams came true by talent. Now, Morgan's talent was like singing, doing whatever the fuck they told him to do and being good looking, but it was still there. That's not necessarily a, what's the word I'm looking for?

Like, where you're from is just where you're from. Right. They don't say anything special about either of them, but I do commend them for making it in a world where everyone else was like, Florida George's line was put together in a studio. I mean, they hate each other. Right.

The industry was like, y'all sing together, you know what I mean? Well, Zach Bryan, too, like, and I'm surely after this song, this will change. But interestingly enough, every old boy in Chickamauga I know really fucks with Zach Brian pretty hard. And none of them, that's why Morgan Wallen's popularity has always been peculiar to me. And I know it was specifically because he said the N-word is that nobody I knows listens to his shit. Like, they don't actually listen to his stuff. Like, I'm sure they'd be like, oh, yeah, hell of a patriot that guy. But they thought, they listen to Zach Bryan.

And I'm with you. Like, he's not, I'm not his biggest fan. But like, when his shit, his shit will pop up on my playlist because of Spotify's algorithm or whatever. I've never once wanted to turn it off. I dig it. Morgan Wallin, on the other hand, fucking kill me with rocks, you know. But yeah, like, I don't know.

Do what? Young people love Morgan Wall. Yeah. And that's where it is. I always also just. Yeah, I always just. So first of all, I did not know he was, even where he was. even where I thought there would definitely be a bigger gap between the two because in my head it's like yeah

I know you know I said is Bull Sturgle Childers whatever I thought it's basically like that where it's like you know what the arenas or whatever like big room you know do the Greek in LA like doing great but still the like you know the stones but not stadiums right which I thought Morgan Wall and does I didn't know that he was actually on that level despite being you know also kind of beloved by that same type of crowd that likes is and children. That's a good spot to me. That's like the biggest one of that.

That's the best, I don't even know how you get that. Me neither. I thought they were kind of mutually exclusive. Exactly. Because that's what I was. And right now, the reason we're even talking about this,

this story, this, that's happening with this new song is like part of the reason why. Because it's always felt to be like you can't be a guy who would make a song like that and like keep a real or whatever. And we did it. That was a different time. Yeah, but that was before the internet happened.

I'm talking that in the modern era. But like, what you said about, oh, nobody listens to Morgan Watt, I just always assumed that that type of thing was like, it blew my mind. Well,

I mean, not really. I kind of knew it. But when, like, Breaking Bad was on TV, and everybody's like, this is the best show of all time,

whatever. And everybody, all my friends watched it and loved it. We talked about it all times. God, this show fucking rules and it does. And I didn't know a single goddamn person outside of my in-laws,

who was, watched Duck Dynasty, which was airing at the same time. But Duck Dynasty did like, it was literally like 10 times. 10, 15 times the viewership, like not even close. Like Breaking Brad is a tiny fraction of Duck Dynasty despite the fact that I barely knew anybody that watched Duck Dynasty. A ton of people that watched Breaking Bad. All in our own little bubble.

Yeah, right. And it's the whole swaths of this big, dumb country. that loves a lot of shit, you know, that... Well, that... Hollywood, like, figuring that out. If there's a big swast of dumb people on this country? Yeah. No, just how many people they didn't give a shit about

and how much money they will spend. Yellowstone. I was about to say Taylor Sheridan, dude, Taylor, they gave him the keys to an empire of whatever... Lee and Morgan. They ignored how talented Leanne Morgan was for a decade. Oh, longer than that.

Yeah. Oh, shit, look at her Facebook followers. Maybe we should give her everything, and it's completely worked. But one of the smartest things I ever heard on this topic, and it came from one of the Trillillies, Tom, the Trillies is like a political podcast. They are not in the entertainment business, but it was when Roseanne got canceled. And when Roseanne got canceled, Trilbilly Tom said, look, I don't like what she said, but I need y'all to understand. Every time we lose a season of Roseanne, we get five more of cops, guys. damn because these people are going to watch something.

Yeah. Dude. So I'm so glad you brought that up because I wasn't going to organically be able to shoehorn in this little piece of information that I know y'all know, but somehow I missed it. Like it's actually telling Kirby, me and her were talking about yesterday, it's like,

man, the COVID years are so wild because like I'll be learning about stuff that happened in 2022 that like absolutely should have been on my radar. And like, dude, I just found out Cooleo died yesterday. I was like, what? Fucking Cooleo died.

And I looked at the year that he died and it was like, right, we were still kind of on lockdown. Me and Amber were trying to get pregnant. I was in this little, you just miss it, right? Well, one thing that I missed was I knew that the Connors was going on without Roseanne. Like I knew that they were, but I didn't know how they handled that. And I didn't know that they literally made Roseanne die of an opioid overdose. Did you know that? That's how she was right now to show.

The first episode, they're like, hey, we got to tell you. about Roseanne. They're like, what happened? They're like, she died of an opioid overdose. And I was like, that's the most fucking on the nose shit. I remember it's so funny. Like they're, fuck this bitch. You know what? She took to me perk 30s. That's what happened. That's what happened. Aunt Jack was going, I got you, baby. Y'all didn't know. So I'm so glad that I'm, no. That's how she was written out of the show. Opioid overdose. It was definitely oxies. Me and some of my buddies figured out recently that if your town moved on from perks to oxies,

then all of your brother's friends are dead. Like that is what decides the whole generation had struggled for a few years versus the whole generation is dead or in prison, is whether they moved on from perks to oxies or not. Every friend that I buried before I was like 22, which was like a lot, yeah, it was all ox, and it was all like the graduation of like,

for there for a while, I was like, oh, just get a couple perks. man, there ain't no problem. We just a couple perks, have a couple beers, and it was great. And then, like, I found, you not to get dark, but, like, when one of my best friends died, it had gotten so bad that, like, he clearly knew it was shameful because none of us knew he was he was melting Knoxies down and shooting it up. And it's like, oh, damn, if we didn't know he was doing that, then he knew, oh, my God,

I'm in a bad place. You know what I mean? And no, you're correct. Like, it really was. That was the pipeline. You probably still have friends who never left perks who were just functioning drug addicts right now. Yeah, and they're good. may not know about it or maybe you do know about.

Well, if they move on the anxies, there's more that I don't. We have prison or death or some mix of those. Speaking of my brothers, you're getting baptized this weekend. What a whirlwind we've been on. Nice. Three bath.

I, I fucking, like, you, so you're right. I think there's a lot more than I know because, and I'm obviously not going to name any names. I found out about one the other day that had been secretly,

like, still taking perks and hydros for like the past 15 years. and I had no idea. Like the most functioning member, great dude. I mean, I don't know how he is at home. You know, you never know. But like, and when I found that out, I was like, oh, dude, there's way more than I think. Like, there's way more than, because, you know, if it's my buddies, they'll, some of them will position it like,

you know, I was thinking this weekend, what might be a nice little treat. And it's like, I think you've been having them as a treat. You just want to, you want me to join in, so you want to act like it's not an everyday thing. you know, and of course I'm like, that would be a nice treat. That's fucking, that'd be a great treat, you know, but they'd be treating themselves. Perks are like in terms of death, pretty safe. Yeah, they're great. In terms of death, they will ruin your life and they will make you want oxies.

Yes. Don't do them. Is a good time. I thought, I thought that they had like ultimately kind of succeeded in making many, many of those things much, much harder to get what they are. They are. They're schedule one. That's not saying much. That's my hair run back. They used to,

but they used to just give them out like fucking candy at Halloween in towns like ours. But they got the very, very hard to get now. And that's why people, yeah, heroin and like fint and all that stuff. I thought that's what like people were doing that,

which is, you know, like worse maybe. But I didn't even know that literal, actual pills. I didn't know that they were still really like, you know, sort of killing them game as they speak.

They still give them to me malls. Right. Yeah. They still get to me malls. And like, I think what happens is like, sometimes, you know how some,

old people, old people really don't realize what they got, you know, sometimes. But they'll be like, oh, I don't want to take those. Those will probably hurt my stomach. And it's like, oh, if you just, you just got to get through that little part of it. Like, you just got to get through that little. Just like, I was prescribed ADD medication in high school and I stopped taking it because I was like, I can't eat. I can't eat.

I can't. This is bullshit. And I was like, man, I didn't know what I had. I didn't know. If they had told me, by the way, this is basically math. I'd have figured a way to keep it in my life. But I think, yeah, a lot of old people, they're just like, oh, that'll hurt my stomach or something.

But they keep their kid that goes and picks up all their stuff keeps the prescription going, you know, and just like I got refiller shit, you know. Right. Just relevant to our conversation, text just came in on the wire and it popped up on my computer, so then I had to go read it because it was, you know, on point. According to my favorite journalist, DJ DJ Lewis. Yeah, mine too. Koshoggi was probably a spook.

Like, okay. A CIA and or some other asset operative. That's the journalist that got their head cut off, right? The first one. They likely killed him because he was a spy, not because he was a journalist. Now, don't conflate that with DJ defending the Saudis. His thing is, oh, well, hell then. You know, you got to kill a spy.

What he was saying is, I can't believe people are bringing up Khashoggi. They murder people for smoking weed there. Right. But everyone's up in arms because they murdered a guy who was probably. selling their secrets. Right. Yeah, you got to kill those. I mean, you know, obviously we would like...

Nothing to verify this. Now, I'll also tell you, though, my man's been bad at about 990. Dude, he crushes, man. He's like that fucking somebody had that this bit one time about like, what if all that crazy shit the homeless people was saying was actually the only truth

in the whole world or something? And I know DJ's not homeless, but I'm just saying... Where are you going with this? I know it's not... I know it's not a little shit. No, no, no. I know he's not homeless, but, like, DJ will say some crazy shit, and you'll think, like, surely not.

But then you look out into the world, and you're like, well, the world is so insane. Why? And, like, he is right. Like, dude, DJ called a lot of this alien shit years ago. And I've never, I've never fact-checked that motherfucker. If DJ says it, I just go, that's it. Why wouldn't he have done his research? Well, we had a run, and me and I have talked about this.

He had a run on Into the Obisket and then Gravy Baby, my new podcast, listen to Gravy Baby, wherever you get your podcast. He was about 50. 50. That's good. And I think he honed in on his sources and that's where he got up

to where he's at now. Well, I just know with DJ like... He couldn't cut the ones out that was lying to him. You wouldn't think someone with that many tattoos would be like this,

but that's a due diligence motherfucker. Like if he hears something, he's not just going to go, okay, take it at face value. Like he's going to read every fucking thing. He'll listen to... This motherfucker will send us a link. He's like, hey, have y'all listen to this yet?

and it'll be a five and a half hour episode podcast is like, ain't got around to it yet, but I'm glad you did. Tell me the highlights. Chat DJT. Give me the fucking just, and I'm saying there was a time where he had maybe wasted five hours. Yeah, well, sure. And now it seems like.

Yeah. And I'll tell you this too. There was, there's a thing been going on lately where him and Smart Mark agree with each other, but Smart Mark's two days later. Oh, I love that. I love that. I'm a fucking Mark in his place.

always had to me. He should. He should. Yeah. Fucking sack of shit. I don't know how he put. Mark says nothing. And then when he says the thing, he's right. It's just two days after DJ. It's not really putting Mark in his place. DJ takes a bigger swing. DJ's more courageous than Mark and always has been. Mark's a coward. Mark's right, but he's a coward. You know, is what I'm saying. No, I don't agree with that at all. I don't either. I just like to shit on him. It's become a new thing.

I mean, I will say the idea of DJ and Mark. becoming aligned on calling shots or whatever should be alarming to everyone listening. That's a recession indicator. That's the other side of this. It's personally entertaining and then socially very scary. Yeah, frightening. Yeah, right.

Globally a nightmare. Our producer is named Mark. We've taken the calling him smarter Mark because he's a sensitive boy. He's like, what do you mean I'm not smart, Mark? And he's also the producer. Anyway, um, Watching his evolution on DJ has been on, and that note has been quite,

because it went from, what the fuck? Yeah, who is this guy? Yeah. To, damn, okay. To, so it's so bad,

like this is how bad it is? Uh-huh. Because he started out as very like, look, man, I'm a liberal guy, but y'all seem like you're real dummy. To like, oh,

I guess Trump's doing fascism, huh? Yeah. Well, I mean, I hear you. It's hard to be optimistic and read up

on stuff. And, you know, I'm really having to like, I was actually talking to my sister about it today. I was like, man, for what I do, I need more, I need a lot of information, whether it's to parody something, or whether it's just, I want to be aware of what's going on in my world and my country because I have a child and I think it's our responsibility. But the day after Charlie Kirk died, I had just, that, well, it was 9-11, which sucks, because again, that's usually my favorite day on Twitter, but Charlie Kirk fucking ruined it. And it became just Charlie Kirk two electric bugaloo day instead of what we needed to be doing was like hilarious 9-11 shirts, memes, all that stuff. And it broke me.

Not being able to celebrate 9-11 really broke me. And I deleted my Twitter. And I am very proud of myself because that's the, I haven't gone back. I haven't put it back on my phone. I haven't looked at it on my computer. And I'm telling you, dude, I feel so good. I feel so much better. Right.

But then, but I'm sitting here a thing. I was like, that's because you're not doom scrolling. You're not seeing all this negativity. but then I'm like, yes, but also is what you're doing putting your head in the sand. And it's so it's easier for you to be happy because you're not having to see that. And I'm like, yeah, but I still read the news. And I think with Twitter, it's like, I wanted to be like every day there's probably two things that you need to go, huh, let's check on that.

But on Twitter you see 20 and you don't know which one's which and you just get overwhelmed. But I'm starting to sense that my happiness is coming at the cost of me being someone who is could be borderline flip at on stuff because I'm not as tuned in. Does that make sense? Yeah, I think that, but I think that there's, there can be a gap, but a healthy gap between the two. Yeah, and maybe I'm there, I don't know.

Full on bearing your head in the sand and refusing to engage, not knowing shit about fuck ever. Yeah, no, I can't, versus, doom, straight up, doom scrolling and just like bump, freaking and bumming yourself out all the time. It's like, you're perversely addicted to it or whatever.

You don't have, like, you can live in the middle of those two. Yeah. generally, you know, keep up enough with what's going on without, you know, driving yourself off a cliff. Well, I suggest, I mean, unless you're following Trey, because I don't want him to lose any followers on Twitter, but like, I would suggest it to people because like, yeah, I've still been, I've still got the news app on my phone and it still gives me the highlights every day.

And I feel like, and then also our text thread, like, usually if it's real important, one of y'all's going to bring it up and then I can go and send a link or whatever. But it's been fucking awesome, not having to know what. cat turd thinks not having to know I keep it around I mean also I post them there still I know for your job but I also I also when I'm about to make a video of stuff I'll go on there because it's like I want to see what they be freaking out about or what they're saying whatever so I can like respond to it having said that I don't enjoy the experience obviously

and dude Twitter nat lately like post Elon Twitter and especially like fucking late stage post Elon Twitter we're at right now it's like it's Amsterdam dude I'd say five six of the most upsetting moment, like psychologically upsetting or disturbing or whatever, like just really, really bothersome internal moments I've had. I've all been induced by Twitter in the past, you know, two, three weeks, whatever.

Like you said, dude, couldn't agree more. Right after Charlie Kirk being on Twitter was like, just deeply unsettling in so many ways. And then, uh, yeah, and then so many other shit too. And then like lower level stuff where you see people saying dumb shit about fucking, you know, I saw earlier on Twitter, some dude had a, made an AI video of like a tank.

Again, it's AI. It's all fake, but a tank like plowing through traffic at like 70 miles an hour. Yeah. And it said something like me and all, me and all my homies on the way to Chicago to fucking, you know, whatever, crush Antifa or something like that. Liberate the Italians. Lip, you know, we'll help our ice brothers out from fucking, but anyway. Like, just dumb shit like that that I said. No, we make an icy.

Not ice. Because it makes me want to, you know, just engage with it. Italian ice. Yeah. Yeah. Italian ice. And in both scenarios, it's just ice. What are we doing?

What are you doing? Yeah. What are we doing here? No, I know. I know. But like, yeah, you're right. But it's a bad place. And like, don't you're wrong.

I can, because on Instagram, I'm still wasting a lot of time. It just doesn't feel as dumby. Do what? Like, Trey, why are you on? there. Huh? I already said because, A, I still just

anytime I make a video, I posted on every one of them, including Twitter. I can do that without getting on there. I know. I know. The only reason I said already, I do it because I want to get an idea of

what the trigidates are hollered about so that I can make fun of it. Yeah, I'm not here yet. And I think that works for that work. I think Twitter now is the place for cesspool. Right. It's like even worse.

It's definitely a fucking cesspool. There's no doubt about that. You might need to get back to Facebook. And then you can see a lot of trauma died with way less. We're going to murder people. I'm so happy to put a bow on the DJ thing. This is just a great point. And honestly, this is convicted me in my rantings about the Raja comedy festival.

They literally cane women for being raped. Yeah. It's their fault if they raped over there. and we're over here like, damn, I can't believe you support people who murdered a spy. I mean, that really is a good point he's making.

Uh-huh. Yeah. One, I would like to think that most people that are on the right side of that whole thing are pretty not cool with, you know, the caning of people who are raped and stuff, too. I definitely saw plenty of other people saying, like, not just the journalist stuff,

but saying, like, human rights abuses, gay people, women, like, people were hollowing. and all that too, I feel like, in the run up to this. But just real quick about Twitter, just want to say, it's not even just politics in terms of it being a cesspool or whatever. Like, it don't even have to be completely like political at all. The other day, one of y'all is sent to our group chat.

It was big because you text. Football, a football highlight from a college football game. Literally all it was, just a sweet play, a punt return or something. I've clicked it from our group chat. It brought up Twitter. And now Twitter auto plays video. You don't have to swipe or whatever. When it gets the end of the video,

it'll just auto play, you know, an algorithm-fed video to you or something. So Corey sends a highlight clip of a punt return. I watch it. It ends. And Twitter auto plays for me a video of a woman sucking a dick on a beach

that's poking up out of the sand. She's walking down the beach. And there's a hard dick poking up out of the sand and she bends down and starts sucking it. I guess AI isn't getting better. They know what we like. That's so. dangerous, dude. Don't, don't do that.

Like, I'm not saying don't suck the dick, but I'm saying don't climb in there. Like, I've seen a lot of idiot. Like, people think it's a fun. Like, oh, we're going to dig a hole in the sand. That's definitely a takeaway from this story. I'm just, I'm worried about people. That is like an under, people don't know how much of an underrated danger that is. He's right.

It's so dangerous. Like, it's the only way that we're ever going to encounter any type of quick sand is if we make it ourselves. But like when people are digging them by the ocean and let the water come in, when that thing caves over, Mark Henry couldn't pull your ass out, son. Like, please don't do that. Like, as a father, I'm telling you, you don't do that.
