And we thank them for sponsoring the show.
Well, no, I'll just go ahead.
I mean, look, I'm money dumb.
Y'all know that.
I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life.
And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion.
Because used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing.
But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
It's just like you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending.
A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis.
I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people.
Like, let me ask you right now.
Skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people.
People across the ske universe, I should say.
Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year?
Do you even know?
Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery?
Getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low main?
Because that's a thing that we do in this society.
Do you know how much you spend on that?
It's probably more than you think.
But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better,
and it's called Rocket Money.
Rocket Money is a personal finance app
that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions,
monitors your spending,
and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings.
Rocket Money shows all your expenses in one place,
including subscriptions you already forgot about.
If you see a subscription, you don't want 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 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 friends' 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.

slash well read and we thank them for sponsoring this episode of the podcast they're the
well well rocking on the mic and my name is drew this is the bonus episode about the tour
what gory you can totally hear the crickets but it's like it's good yeah yeah good
I know.
No, I knew it would hit.
Yeah, like, if it's an air conditioner, it's like,
are we recording?
Yeah, we're recording.
You know what's funny about that is like, I honestly, the first time I noticed
that we even had crickets out here, I was like, oh, hits.
Like, I didn't, you know what I mean?
I was like, oh, they got crickets too.
How far you got crickets?
Weeners and gold.
Me and you talked about the squirrels, and you said you noticed a similar thing.
The squirrels is different.
They're different.
They're different squirrels.
The squirrels I've seen out here, they ain't the same squirrels.
is we got.
Harlem, swear to God,
have black squirrels.
I swear it sounds like
I'm making it up
to make some dumb racial joke.
Well, they roll in squirrel bones
playing dicing shit
on the side of a tree.
No, but that's only
the second time of my life
I've seen black squirrels
was in Harlem and I only seen
one or two on my college campus.
Jesus Christ,
this sounds like some dumb metaphor.
I only seen one or two
black ones on my college campus.
We've been sounding dumb
for this whole conversation,
so it's fine.
Can we just start over?
No, this is it.
Yeah.
I got crickets in the back.
Anyway, in New York, they had the black squirrels that I'd never seen,
and then they had like these light gray squirrels that scared me, frankly.
And then in Boston, they had these big brown ones.
Like they look larger.
The ones where we're from, those are, they're gray squirrels.
Like dark gray.
I mean, I don't, I mean, the color, but also, yeah, the type of squirrel is a gray squirrel, I think.
I don't know what to.
Gray squirrel sounds like a game of Thrones character that's going to die in three episodes.
It does, yeah.
Yeah, we got gray squirrels.
And out here, they got gay squirrels.
Hey, oh, all right.
Here we are.
I wish we'd have stopped right after you said that so you could just hear the crickets.
Mm-hmm.
After that joke.
Yeah.
I burnt that.
It is nice.
The crickets are nice.
I just now remembered what we're talking about.
Yeah.
Ostensibly supposed to be talking about.
It's not here having a nice night.
Yeah, and it ain't squirrels.
No.
It's our careers.
It's what we do for a living, which is comedy.
live on stage in front of people we've been at well we've been doing that for quite some time now
but we've been on tour together doing it for uh how many over a year was like 14 months 14
15 months yeah but we have just announced a big fall tour spectacular from dixie with love
and we come into your city and it's going to be fun and this is a bonus episode we're doing
just to talk about touring all the fun we've had and
and all the fun we're going to have.
Corey, what's been, well, this is a super hard question.
So, like, the meeting the drive-by truckers aside,
so we've told that story before,
and what has been some of the,
I guess, like, when I get asked now, I've always started like number six,
what's the coolest thing?
Oh, shit, started number six.
I was going to say, well, this is just that,
or something you ain't talked about before you think.
I definitely ain't talked about this on the podcast was,
well, the most surreal moment from me.
maybe we were in Baltimore and we had a 730 show or something like that and we get there
and had zero idea that there was a show before us like no idea at all and the place was packed
and we realized that it's because Dick Gregory had the early show before us and we're like oh shit
Dick Gregory my God live in legend son of a bitch and so we're back in the green room and his
son Christian correct who oh shit what the fuck was that was that was that a fucking the black
squirrel heard me talking about him.
It was probably a lemon, a lemon off of a tree that fell either that or a rat that just stroked out and died.
A Cho rat.
Cho rat heart give out on him halfway across that power line and just fell to his death.
Third possibility, whatever that lady was screaming about earlier, whatever shitty kid of her she was mad at just threw something at Corey, I guess.
Yeah, if y'all couldn't hear it on the audio, something just fell to the ground right beside us through some, uh,
tree branches and stuff. Yeah, yeah. If I didn't make it clear earlier with the cricket comments, we're doing our first ever outside podcast.
Mainly because we wanted to smoke cigarettes and drink wine and so that's what we're doing.
Kind of unbelievable that we haven't done one of these outside yet. We're doing a car, which is close. We're usually in hotel rooms.
Right. And also, you know, we care a lot about the quality of the audio. That too, clearly.
I was clean slated by the death of that rat or whatever. I was talking about, I was talking about.
And so, wait, real quick. Did you jump.
up?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I do that.
We're straight rednecks.
A lemon fell and we all freaked out.
What is that yellow apple?
My four-year-old, he called him yellow pumpkins.
Because the ones on this tree back here in my neighbor, you've seen them.
They're the biggest goddamn lemons.
When I first saw, I didn't think that's, I thought this was something new.
There's not an amount of money I wouldn't pay to hear him call Corey the yellow pumpkin.
He will.
He was asking about you.
I got here.
They told me they loved me and then they asked when you were coming.
Oh.
Yeah.
And when they see Corey tomorrow, they'll ask him for the 57th time where his hair went.
Dude, it's your hair.
Take your hat off.
Why ain't you got no hair?
It's so crazy because they're like, they just now are getting into, like, actual school.
But kids already know something's wrong with your head.
Like, they didn't have to be taught that.
at all that was inherent and then they look at me and they're like this is god's mistake so anyways
i was talking about so you know dick gregory's there and then we're sitting in the greener and
oh sorry dick gregory's meet and greets going a little long and of course all three of us
are just like as as would any comedian at any level would be like dude you let dick gregory
take all the time he needs right absolutely and then christian gregory his son comes back there
and lets us know that he's a fan of yours ray and his senior videos and then that
then the next thing we know,
he comes back again is like, hey,
my dad, Dick Gregory,
was wondering if you guys would come and meet
him on stage and take a picture. And we're all
just like, what, hell
yes. But aside
from meeting Dick Gregory, the thing that made it so surreal
is at this time, our
fans had been packed into,
it was like a 550-C, it was one of the bigger shows we'd
done at that point. And we walked
out on stage to meet Dick Gregory
and got a standing ovation
just for walking out and then got to
take a picture with Dick Gregory and I was like that was one of those like meeting the truckers was like those are my child some of my childhood heroes or whatever but this is specific to comedy you know what I mean I felt like you know because I mean there's plenty of people I'm sure there's people I'm sure there's people in Dick Gregory's audience would have had no idea who we were but I'm sure there were people there to see us who didn't recognize from the stage you know who he was or what was going on either I'm sure there was some of that but I definitely got the feeling that like a lot of the
those people, I felt like they knew what they were applauding.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, for sure.
They understood the coolness of what was happening.
Yeah, that's what I mean.
Dude, I straight up.
Dick Gregory and who he is and what he represents and shit and what we try to do and all
that.
I don't know.
I felt like they got that, which is why we got the response that we did.
Yeah, that's why that moment was so unreal to me.
And like I said, it was specific to comedy, whereas like a lot of the things we
experience are just like, cool because of, you know, oh, who we are in the South.
this is a neat thing, but that was like a stand-up legend asking us to come out.
And I was like, what, this, I don't deserve this shit at all.
We don't deserve none of this.
Was the question your favorite moment?
Well, he said it, not as, that was the most surreal.
I don't know if it's my favorite because, dude, it's hard to beat hanging out with the truckers.
I know, well, that, and that's what I said was.
Whoopi was the most surreal for me.
Yeah, for sure.
And that was wildest.
Not just because we got to hang out with her, but because I'm going to be honest with you guys,
when we went on the view to promote our book, Little Neck Manifesto, Dragon Dixie out of Dark,
available at Amazon and Barnes and Noble and anywhere books are sold.
I thought when someone sent us that clip of her being like,
I love these guys,
I love Drake Crowder's videos,
this book is great,
I was like,
oh,
well that's just how Hollywood works.
Like we're going to be on the view,
so this is how they've introed that we're coming on the show,
but then she comes back there,
knows us by name,
wants to go on Facebook live,
to help us promote the book,
is talking to me about my bits,
you know what I mean,
is doing all that stuff.
surreal because it was like she is a fan of my comedy yeah that's wild she was a fan of my book
until she got here tonight and now she's a fan of my comedy uh and again i i didn't mean to make
this uh smooth transition back to talking about the tour but i felt i mean i'd felt it before
and i knew that you know we belonged in this world but when that happened that was like man right
we we've arrived in a way that i've always wanted to arrive of course i want a career of course i want
but I also want respect.
Right.
And here is a legend telling me, you know, there were specific jokes you wanted to talk about.
That was incredible.
I mean, dude, yeah.
I mean, it's the same for George Wallace.
You touched on.
Well, see, like, we, you know, because of the nature of my thing and thus our thing,
there are definitely plenty of comedians out there still who, you know, think of me in
particular as an internet guy.
What do you think of that?
What do you think they think of us?
Yeah.
Right.
Well, and I mean, and I always say, and I do like, I mean, I get it.
Why wouldn't they think that?
You know, and so I'm it.
But it does kind of bother me because, you know, I consider myself a comedian and I want to be considered
as such.
But then I think about, you know, we've met a handful of literal living legends now who have
been fans of ours, you know, George Wallace, Whoopi Goldberg, Dick Gregory, Rob Reiner now.
I mean, and so that, I mean, buddy, you don't need no more than that.
You know what I mean?
But two of them specifically, George and Whoopi, watched our show and then wanted to continue to hang out with us.
Right.
When George hung around that night after the show in Atlanta, I was like, oh, man.
Right.
You know what I mean?
Like, if we'd have sucked, he'd have dipped.
Right.
And, I mean, Hill, he stayed in touch since then.
Oh, of course.
We hung out since.
Yeah.
Well, you guys.
Did I tell you about, did I tell you about accidentally emailing Whoopi the other day?
Yes.
I'll tell you.
Well, fucking, we were.
Yeah, I don't remember exactly what happened.
Then you email Whoopi about a pound cake or something like that.
No, it was, okay, so Whoopi was kind enough to write us a blurb for our paperback
release of our book.
And so our publisher asked, had asked me a question about it or whatever, and I was going
to email them back.
And because I had Whoopi on the brain, I accidentally typed Whoopi into the, uh,
send, I sent this email to Whoopi
and it was just a quote.
I sent a quote of Whoopi to Whoopi
and then immediately realized what I'd done
and it was like 2 o'clock in the morning
and I sent one back and I sent one back and I'm so sorry
Whoopi I had you on the brain
I hope I didn't wake you up
and the next day she sent me a message
that said I slept right through it
but you scared the fuck out of my cat
which I thought was hilarious
Well let's let's do some dates
and then tell some more
Jerking ourselves off stories from the road
Well, no, I mean, I want to keep talking about the road.
I know I do too.
I want to talk about some of the ups and downs, and I want to make fun of you a little bit, Corey, because that's always fun for me.
I just wanted our fans to know that I'm very aware that we're jerking ourselves off.
And if you want to come to see us.
This is the first time our fans have had an entree into a hit summit.
The Hit Summit. Yeah.
And we got red wine.
That immediately happened.
We started drinking red wine in the podcast turned in how much we has turned into a hit summit.
Welcome to the Hit Summit.
If you guys want to come see us jerk ourselves.
off live, you can come out.
How far? Should I do all these?

I hope she bought 400 tickets.
Philadelphia.
I'm kidding.
I love you.
I can't remember your name.
But sincerely, it's nice that somebody wants us to come to their city.
I've got a story about Eugene in a minute.
Yeah.
I got some stories about some dudes named Eugene too.
Here's to you, Gene.
Philadelphia, October 25th, Washington, D.C. for a whole weekend, the 26, 27, 28th, and 29th.
Is that right?
Yeah.
Four days.
And then I'm going to end this round of announcements.
I'll do the rest of them later with New York City available soon.
I'm not sure we're allowed to talk about what we're going to be a part of, but I'm going to do it.
New York fucking comedy festival.
God damn right.
I'm so hype about that on.
November 7th.
I won't say where we're going to be
because I don't think that's confirmed,
but we will be in New York and in Manhattan
right now is what it's looking like,
and I'm pumped about that.
Dude, we've had two shows
in Manhattan and one in Brooklyn, is that right?
They've all three been
fucking awesome. They've all been great.
So, I want
to do some shows from the road story.
As you guys...
Hold on real quick.
Let me tell that Eugene thing before I forget.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've been to Eugene, Oregon once for my old job
when I work for the DOE.
I used to administer federal energy grants for various cities.
And my region that I was assigned to was the Pacific Northwest.
So, I mean, that hits.
I lucked out.
So, like, I actually spent some time in Washington State in Oregon for a while, including going to Eugene.
And I was in Eugene, and it was lunchtime, and I walked in this burrito place.
Now, y'all ever have an experience where, like, it's like you got the angel and the devil on your shoulder, but they're both rednecks.
And so what I mean is
Every day
One of them is like
The angel's a good guy
But he's also drunk
You're wanting to do some
What you know is some redneck shit
But also
You're like
This motherfucker's expecting me
To do some redneck shit right now
And fuck him
But I don't know in what way
I mean fuck him
Meaning I'm gonna do what I want anyway
And fuck what this guy thinks
Or
You know
I'm gonna flip the script or whatever
Am I making any sense
at all. Yeah, no, I know what you mean. I don't think so for me, but just tell the story.
So, Burrito shot. I know what you're trying to say. I don't think you're conveying it the best.
I know, I don't think I am either.
What you're saying is, is. The angel's drunk. You know what. It's pride and shame is what it is.
You know what this guy thinks of you. And part of you wants to be like, no, so we're not all like this. And the other party you wants to go, no, fuck you.
The devil's going. No, show his ass. So that's a thing that I feel like most southerners, especially the ones that, you know, align with us encounter.
throughout our lives.
And this is an example of that.
I walked into this burrito shop in Eugene, Oregon, for lunch.
I walked up there, and it was one of those order at the counterplace, and there's a big
line.
So I've been in line for a minute, and as I'm looking at it, I'm noticing something odd about
the burritos.
And then I get up to the front.
Absence of meat.
And I asked him, I was like, okay, so I want the, you know, El Tamacoon or whatever the
fuck, you know.
But do I just pick whatever meat I want?
Like, do I get pork?
Because I'd like pork if you got it.
And he was like, oh, no, actually, this is a vegan burrito place.
And, you know, immediately in my head, I was like, well.
Right.
Nothing about this hits.
Y'all sell lettuce wraps.
Yeah, right, exactly.
And they didn't even got sour cream.
But, you know, I'm in there.
I've had a conversation with this dude up until this point with the accent and everything.
And I asked the question that he says that.
and I can tell he's just like, you know,
this redneck can't have a vegan burrito.
And I was sitting there like,
this motherfucker thinks.
I want to eat a vegan burrito.
And he's right.
Yeah.
But if I don't want him to be.
Did you buy a vegan burrito?
No, I didn't.
No, I would have.
Just like looking at him like cross-eyed for a minute and finally it was like,
okay.
And just turned around and walked out and like walk to a fucking McDonald's across the street or something.
I don't know if you remember this, but that actually.
I stuck to my gun.
ultimately.
That actually happened to me
while we were on tour.
I don't know if both y'all were there,
I know you're the one that brought it up to me,
but we were somewhere,
and I saw some like breakfast burrito
or breakfast omit or whatever,
and it was soy chorizo.
And I was like, yeah,
I want the soy chorizo, yada, yada, yada,
and you go.
I was with you.
You go, babe, baby, baby, baby.
That is not soy flavoring on top of chorizo.
That is like fake chorizo.
And I just go, oh, fuck that.
Yeah.
I did go the other way.
I think it was Asheville.
It sounds like Asheville.
I mean, I'll give you that.
It sounds like Asheville.
But I remember where we ate in Asheville.
Well, we've been to Asheville a couple times.
No, it was.
I mean, biscuithead.
It was, Winter Park, Colorado.
I see it was at West somewhere.
It was Winter Park.
And it was 8.30 in the morning, and we were Stoney below.
Bologna.
That's a tour story for you.
That's the day that I left Corey on the side of the road.
Today.
God damn.
What do you think of it?
Yeah, that checks out.
All right.
So we were up in the mountains and stone to shit.
We had a rental car and we were just driving.
We were like looking at this cool lake.
Again, we were on the edibles.
We ate the edibles at like 8 a.m. that morning.
We were going to go have a big nature day.
Right.
And a lot of.
Not raven.
A lot of raven things.
A lot of raven things happened.
And I don't, I'm trying to remember the exact order.
Did I leave you before I went and chased down?
the wild bear?
You did, yes.
So the first thing we pulled over and we were just, literally we were just throwing rocks, which
that's how beautiful marijuana can be.
I know I've said on the podcast.
I bought slingshots for my sons.
Oh, that's right.
And we were using them to slingshot rocks.
And we all had our shirts off.
Right.
And I was going to say, that's how beautiful marijuana can be.
I've said on this podcast very recently that it's overrated.
And I stand by that.
But the reason I said is because for me, it only hits one out of ten times.
But buddy, we was on fire that day.
We'd have done that drunk, too, just at cars.
Right.
So we were doing that with our shirts off, being weird as shit.
And then we got back in the car.
And I was telling some story to Trey.
And he was dying.
I mean, I was on fire.
I've never made Trey laugh this hard.
And at my head, I'm real stoned.
And I'm like, is this that funny?
I'm hitting.
I'm the best.
I'm going.
And finally he goes, are you serious right now?
No, that's not.
At one point in that story, after I'm dying, laughing the whole time, you like,
asked Corey what he thought about it or like you somehow addressed Corey and then I was like
just like about to throw up I was laughing so hard you're like what I was kind of like a
god of what the fuck holy shit Cory was not in the car and slammed on the brakes he was like
where's Cory I was on a rock terrified it's like you left him too much and you thought I was just like
doing the whole, the classic, how we left Corey.
I thought, yeah, but see, I thought that at first, and then you were gone for a very long time.
And I was like, he's not that, like, he's not that committed to it.
Like, he wouldn't want to go that far out of his way just to then have to turn around.
They have forgotten me.
I am fucked, and I'm also stone, and I'm going to get Ed, you know, by something.
So, well, I went back and I got you.
Yeah.
And we drove past that beautiful lake, and we went down into where.
Colorado is beautiful.
So beautiful.
Anybody that's saying never been to Colorado, it is one of the crown jewels of this country in terms of natural beauty.
It's fucking unreal.
And on that, Mr. Budd agrees.
And on that note of how beautiful it was, we got down to this camp and we couldn't really drive any further.
So we turned around.
And on the way out, I was driving.
I don't know what came over me other than, you know, the marijuana and the beauty of Colorado.
I just shirtless, I just parked the car and jumped out.
out of nowhere.
Slamming the brakes,
slinging gravel everywhere,
parked the car,
and just took off running
through the woods
to freedom.
I just,
I needed to be outside.
I had to be outside.
And you guys followed me.
Well, let me tell you.
The grass was up to his neck,
by the way.
Me and Corey had already,
first of all,
we,
if y'all have never been
to extreme elevation like that,
you know,
we're all from the south,
you know,
like in Drew's
from the foothills
Appalachian.
But still, we're not mountain people at all.
And you hear about the elevation and what it does to you.
But I tell you what, I was not prepared for that.
The air being thin and shit, my fat, sorry-ass could not breathe just existing.
During the show, I was about to die.
Dude, throughout the show, because, you know, working up, you get enthused.
You're, you know, you're really getting into it.
But I had to, multiple times, I was like, yeah, in my set.
Yeah, I had to, like, yeah, I had to comment on.
it not because I did too.
Not because I was trying to be funny,
but because I was like,
I've got to address this
so they're going to think
something is medically wrong with it.
Right.
I was the same way.
I started out by saying something about it
because for the same reason.
But anyway,
Drew gets out and does that.
And so with the context of
we're Superstoned and our fat asses can't breathe.
Me and Cord just looked at each other.
We're like,
oh, damn it.
Yeah.
Are we supposed to go get him or what's going to happen?
And finally, like, we ultimately decide,
we're like, okay.
So we like
trek through this
The woods
But like here's the thing
Like a marsh
It's not our woods
You know what I'm not
No no no no
No then wasn't our woods
Yeah
But there's a difference
This was totally alien woods
From what I'm used to
And I'm super stone
So like I was kind of freaking out a little bit already
Yeah we are people you read about
Where people like all they deserved it
Fuck them I'm glad they're dead
Right you know what I mean
Drew
I got to this marsh
And we found Drew at the marsh
And the grass was like
I'm still not convinced it was real.
Yeah.
And I got to the edge of it and then I saw how wet the ground was and I stopped and I was like,
this is beautiful.
I'm just going to hang out here for a minute.
I was looking around to see where, because there was a creek where that camp was
where we had turned around and I knew it went back in there and that's probably what
created the marsh.
You know, it had a lot to do with that creek bed.
And I was looking for that.
And you guys, I saw y'all coming up behind me and I was like, okay, they're finally
catching up slowly crying.
Out of breath.
Leave him.
Believe him.
We'll do more time.
And then we heard a grunt.
No.
You heard a grunt.
Y'all didn't hear it?
I'm still not convinced that it was a real creature.
I don't know if I've made this up in my head because you've told it so many times, but I seem to now remember a grunt.
And I thought y'all heard it that day.
Buddy, at the time, I 100%.
That may have been Trey breathing.
Right.
At the time, I 100% believed I was like, there's a bear or a moose or some shit.
I mean, I believe that.
I don't think it was anything that big.
But I don't think I actually heard anything.
Look, I don't think it was anything that big.
I don't think it was a bear or a moose.
I think we'd have seen it if it was.
But I believe on my life that I heard an animal grunt at me.
By the way, while we were walking back following you, I said to you, we were walking through that tall grass.
And I was like, dude, something big has walked through this grass.
Because some of the grass was like trampled over.
Yeah, exactly.
I was like, something big has fucking walked through here recently.
So then we sprinted.
And then we get to you and then you're like, what was that?
I just heard grunt.
And so in my eye, I was like, we dead.
So we are dead.
Well, I did.
Sprinted.
Well, no, technically what we were doing was sprinting.
Sprinting means to run as fast as you humanly can.
And I can hear y'all.
Cussing me under your breath, under your baited breath.
Dude.
Absolutely.
I hated everything.
you at that moment.
And I remember laughing, and I think I said back to y'all, all I got to do is outrun y'all,
and I'll be fine.
Yeah.
God damn.
Yeah, we were, you're right.
We were technically sprinting, but it was.
But yeah, but then we got back to the car, and I immediately started thinking, I was like,
that wasn't nothing, was it?
Like, it was just our brains.
We had that, right?
Well, and that was part of it, but I definitely heard a grunt, but I don't think it was
anything major.
If you had got attacked by a wild boar, I would not.
still wouldn't be over it.
I still wouldn't
me or him.
It would be great.
Either one.
If a wild boar came after me and then got one of y'all...
He'd have got away.
It'd have killed you.
Buddy, we were locked step.
Don't act like you smoked my ass.
I was right there with me.
I'd have kicked you over.
I feel like that was like subconsciously,
Corey just couldn't leave you behind.
A pig would never hurt one of its own.
I just think Corey can outrun you.
That's all I'm saying.
I'd have communicated with the boar somehow.
Corey played receiver in high school.
You played Trump.
bone or something like that.
No,
I was very,
I played receiver.
He played recorder guard,
but,
uh,
I just think Corey's probably fast.
For,
for what I am.
For what I am.
Now,
why do you think that?
I mean,
the way his legs is built
and the fact that he played receiver.
I got good legs.
I can jump.
I got ups.
I could dunk in high school.
Yeah.
Also,
one time he told me he could beat me in the race.
And I knew it wasn't true,
but I figured for a man to say that,
he could outrun you.
Yeah, and I also, by the way, didn't believe that.
I could, I could actually, I could run fast and jump high.
I was just, I don't, I'm not coordinated.
This is the other part of the hit summit, well, rent fans is when we just argue about the dumbest things.
You ever, no, but I really, that's the only things I could do.
I couldn't, I believe that.
I wasn't coordinated.
I believe that old Mr. Peanut commercials where he just, he walking like, that's what
Trey looked like when he sprint.
The planners?
Planners?
Yeah.
Is that who we're talking about?
With the monocle of Mr. Peanut.
With the Monacle, which.
also fits trace name i was asking him that's who he was and it mr peanut no i think you're right
yeah mr peanut yeah it's mr peanut well here we are now granted look in high school i could
uh i could dunk a basketball you absolutely might could outrun me hell i don't know here's let me finish
i could do that in high school now i can barely touch the backboard yeah so like i mean don't get
me wrong you know like i am not fast i just don't believe that you're fast i just don't believe that you're
either, buddy.
I mean, no.
The thing's not that I'm fast.
It's if I'm faster than you.
Right.
Well, I mean, we'll settle with us.
Yeah.
No, we won't.
Absolutely not.
Neither one of us want to do that.
Our egos are not big enough to warrant us running.
I ain't running.
Hell no.
Dude, at all.
Oh, anyway.
Well, I wanted to tell some Choos from the Road story.
Yeah, chose from the road.
My favorite, I think, man, it's tough to pick.
There's been a lot of Choves.
I think it's Bubba the butt soap maker.
For sure.
I mean,
I think that's who I go with, too.
Really?
I mean, yeah, man.
Fuck.
In Jacksonville?
West Palm Beach.
It was West Palm Beach.
It was West Palm Beach.
No, no, it was Fort Lauderdale.
Here's what we know, guys.
100%.
It was Florida.
It was.
It was Florida.
It was.
And it was Florida is down and the same.
Bubba, if we're wrong, you holler at us.
Bubba came up to us after the show.
They're in the meet and greet,
which, you know, if you come out to our shows,
we do a meet and greet or whatever.
First time I've ever been objectified sexually.
What do you say you?
I'm a...
He said, that's a great set of ball.
He said, that's a great set of balls you got there.
And I was like, he's like, something we could see him from the stage.
He's like, hey, you know, that's balls.
He's like, trust me, I'm a ball man.
That's balls.
Bubba owns a...
I didn't know there were ball man.
There's a ball man.
I thought he said ball boy, but now.
No, he said that. He said, I'm a ball man.
Just like I'm a tip man or an ass man, you know.
I'm a ball man.
I didn't know that exists either because I got to tell you.
Damn it.
God damn, I'm athletic.
I thought it was happening.
Drew's in a computer chair and he's on this like little mini porch area outside my guest house
and one of the wheels tipped over off the side of it.
And he about went.
I thought he was going, but he did save it.
The reason I didn't think there was such things as ball man and ladies that are fans of this
You may correct me, but in my opinion, it ain't never been a ball woman.
You know what I mean?
Like, I've never.
A big old set of balls.
Because I'd have got, I'd have been told, you know what I mean?
Right.
Statistically speaking, it would have gotten brought up that I had a nice set of balls, but like that never, never happened.
Yeah, because, dude, your balls are like my hands.
They're enormous.
You notice it.
My balls are small I know, but they're not yours.
They harm my own.
Did that all, like M&M, you still?
talk about having big ass balls. Is that a shit
hit for you? Yeah. Yeah.
But like, I don't know, man. Like, I didn't really ever know
they were that big until... 80 pound balls
back a six and long. It's like Drew said about him
being a liberal. I got told I had big balls.
Like, I didn't really, you know.
But, yeah, balls were huge.
He's the baby, shady. He's so crazy.
My dick shrunk smaller, but my balls got larger.
Yeah. And that was like a separate
song, I think. And then it was. It was like
80 pound balls, dick six since long.
But you can see them through my jeans.
so there's something going on.
Remember Josie?
They're ridiculous.
A three foot nine with a ten foot dick.
Oh, yeah.
You're talking about...
Joe C.
Kid rocks midgett.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, kid rocks little person.
No, if it's kids rocks, it's a midget.
Anyway, well, we haven't even told the whole bum story.
That was the first part, and we were like, oh,
That's great.
This dude hits, and it was wild.
This is going to sound shitty, but I wouldn't defend you.
Tim Wilson used this joke when he said something about somebody back in the 70s.
It was crippling.
Somebody was like, it's handicapped.
And he goes, no, this was the 70s.
It was cripple.
That's wrong, but it's true.
Bubba also, we should say,
Bubba was a large Bubba looking feller with a camo ball cap on and shit,
who was a ball man.
He was a gay, self-professed, gay redneck.
and he told us that he was the owner and operator of a gay redneck bar.
Not in Fort Lauderdale, but like an hour and a half outside of Fort Lauderdale somewhere.
I believe it was like a gay redneck bar.
I wish I could remember the name of it.
It was an awesome name.
I can't think of it now.
I've looked it up, I thought, before.
But anyway, that was what Bubba did.
And Drew, go ahead.
Well, and then the other job that he had was he was.
Yeah, his side hustle.
Soul proprietor, owner-operator, not only was he the president, he was a client of Bubba's butt soap, online products to wash your butt.
Specifically, you know, if you're trying to get down and dirty, witch you butt.
And then he also had a product of Bubba's dick soap.
Yeah, wiener washer.
Which was shaped like a donut.
So you put your wainer inside the soap and then clean your wiener.
Clean your wiener with it.
Yeah.
Didn't it?
Wouldn't there a Bubba's ball soap, too, I think, even?
And what was really funny is, is like, when he was talking about him, like, you know, you jerking off with his soap, I started to open my mouth.
And he immediately goes, no, it will not sting your dickhole.
And I was like, okay.
Like that was a business man, son.
This is no tears shit right here.
Well, that was the thing about him.
We're telling all these facts about his life that are very interesting and make him interesting.
He also was just hilarious.
Oh, he was great.
He came right up and was like, you got a set of balls on you.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, not in the normal way I'm used to hearing that.
Dude, I tell you what, and he ain't down.
I mean, he's the, you know, the one that stands out, but like, we've met a goodly number of gay rednecks.
And I mean, and I mean, fucking rednecks, man.
Sure.
Straight up rednecks that just happened to be gay.
And they're there with their gay redneck husband or whatever also.
And it's, and lesbians too, gay, lesbian rednecks.
We've met a bunch of all that, and they're always just my favorite people.
I'm always like, absolutely.
I love so much.
everything about you.
I know, and it's, now that we're bringing it up,
it's like, this is just how much this year has gotten past us.
Because, like, I remember being for a long time,
I mean, we've got to get back down there and go to Bubba's goddamn bar.
Like, that's, like, that's a legit thing that I want to do.
Buddy, we wouldn't pay for a single drink in Bubba's bar.
Hell.
We'd get traded like Kay.
I'm going to be a motherfucker.
Yes, sir.
I don't think we needed this tour to not have to pay for anything in Bubba's bar, but you
right.
Yeah.
Man, but we got him.
We met Aaron Noe, the guy who rode pork and beans on the stage.
We've told that story a lot, but if we told it on here, we probably have.
No, we probably have.
We got the lady who opened.
That's Johnson City, Tennessee, a guy rolled a can of pork and beans on stage as a gift to us.
Corey thought it was a bomb.
But when he realized it wasn't a bomb, he took the top off and bent it into a rudimentary spoon
and ate the pork and beans and became the mayor of Johnson City.
And that was Aaron No.
Shout out to Aaron.
That's our buddy.
He's a liberal redneck veteran.
And a huge tough.
And a awesome dude.
Back to Denver.
There was Large Marge.
Large Marge.
Lost her virginity.
I thought it was a dollar store parking lot.
I thought it was Waffle House.
I think Golden Corral.
I think it's whatever you want it to be.
Did Large Marge exist?
It's whatever you wanted to do.
That was in Denver.
We were still high.
We should say she called herself Large Marge.
She did.
She was from Oak Ridge, right?
Yeah, originally.
She was.
She gave you a license plate?
Cori has showed him on.
No, we autographed a license plate.
Yeah, we autographed an Oak Ridge Wildcat license plate.
His Golden Crowell?
Because, I mean, Large Marge wasn't old, but I mean, I'd say she was in her 40s, and she was talking about losing every day.
I didn't know Golden Crowell.
Shoney's.
Shones.
It was Shones.
It was Shoney.
It was a Shonies.
Because that's even funny.
I don't know why.
We just went with three less funny things.
It was 100% of Shonies.
Remember, she had like, she had came up in the middle of those.
us talking to this other group of fans, which was this like older dude.
He was wearing a red polo.
I'll never forget him.
Older like well-to-do dude.
But I mean, you know, was cool and everything.
And he, uh, god damn it.
What did he say?
He said, he said, God damn it.
Something like, uh, you know, like we said something like, yeah, thanks for coming or whatever.
And he said something's like, uh, no, no, she had told the story.
And then she was like, yeah, you know, I'm, uh,
I mean, I guess you could say I'm a little white trash or something like that.
And that guy was like, the lady that lost a Virginia in a show in his parking lot, surely not.
Hell not.
Something like that.
That same show we had them fans bring us those stamps of Donald Trump's face, like looking all ugly and weird.
I think it said fuck Trump or something like.
Stamps not like postal stamps, like they stamp onto a piece of paper stamp.
Like how you get into the club, but giant.
Right.
Yeah, and they put them on our butts.
Yeah, we put them on our stomach and on your ass.
I have a video of that somewhere still.
Yeah.
I've done a lot of things to my ass on this tour.
Another one, Huntsville, Alabama.
I don't remember her name.
She opened with, I shot my husband.
She opened with that.
God damn it.
I looked that story up the other day.
And it was true.
Yeah.
She shot her husband and he shot her back or tried to.
No, the cop shot her.
That's what it is.
Yeah, the cops shot her.
She survived.
She survived.
and then turns out, I believe he's whooping her.
Obviously, it was something because she came to our show.
You know what I mean?
She's not just...
So you're saying she got, like...
She's out.
She's out.
She's out.
Maybe.
I don't remember.
I don't know, but I mean, no, he...
Because, like, she shot and killed him, and then the cops came, and they shot her ass.
And she...
And, you know, the thing is, though, man, if you'd have told me,
if you'd blind up everybody in Huntsville, Alabama that night...
and said, hey, pick out the woman who shot her husband.
I wouldn't pick that.
Oh, yeah, no, yeah.
She was like my mama kind of.
She looked a lot like your mom.
She had been in my top five.
She was in the eyes.
She was a put together middle-aged woman who, you know, was hitting.
She was hitting.
And hit, like, walked up.
Hey, what's going on, guys?
I shot my husband.
He died.
The cop shot me.
Anyways, good to see.
So I'm a redneck.
Yeah, she brought.
Yeah, so I call out.
Yeah, God damn, you do qualify a motherfucker.
We do get that a lot.
A lot of people want to immediately give us their credentials.
That's a huge tour thing.
Everybody wants to give us the red cred always, which is cool because we get stories like that.
Well, I will say I like it fast because it's always funnier.
And, you know, sometimes it's like a 15-minute story about why they're red, but it's like sad.
And you're just sitting there getting, like, you're in line with fans.
And you want to listen, of course.
And it's not that I mind hearing the story, but it's like we're sitting there.
It's like a five-minute story about their dad being in prison because of pills and all that.
And you're like, man.
Yeah, for the record, though, if you got shot by the cops,
and survive, take your time.
We will listen to every part of that fucking story.
Yeah.
In fact, that was so fucked up.
I really wanted to hear more, and she just opened with that and fucking left.
I don't mind people taking their time.
It's just more of a, if it's sad, I end up feeling bad for them,
because sometimes I feel like people, they feel a connection with us, and they start telling it.
And then you can tell halfway through, they're like, man, I didn't want to talk about this.
I got a couple shows from the road for y'all.
All right.
Bentonville, Arkansas.
all. Last show, last show, last night, last people in line.
And they sat over there by the bar watching it, and I thought we were getting invited to a party.
I thought that's why they were scraggling, you know, like they wanted to hang out with us.
Yeah, and they were, it was a couple, a young couple. I'd say they're around 30, a guy and a girl.
I'm going to say 26. Let me, let me preface all this by saying, what is about to be said is within my top three sentences I've ever heard in my entire life, and I've heard
to fuck tennis.
It says, go ahead.
He comes up there, they come up there, and he goes, hey, boys, they go over hanging out
his eyes once, you know, she's the liberal, I'm the redneck, and we's wondering if maybe
Youngs had signed her titties in my butt.
And we had that response, and we were like, hell yeah, we will, and she fucking pulled
her titties out, and he pulled his ass out, and we, christened them all.
Yeah.
It hit.
That was the same show we got brought to us.
Bittenville, Arkansas, treated us like king.
Three pounds of barbecue?
A pound's a barbecue.
Homemade moonshine, homegrown weed, signed two titties and one butt,
a whole bucket full of PBR swag, all kinds of shit.
Yeah, man.
Was that the joint from the guy named Randy, or was that a different show?
I know Randy listens.
What's what I was going to say?
I know Randy listens, but I remember we got a joint.
joint from a guy named Randy once and he's like hey I'm I want to give you this joint my name's
Randy and we all went yeah we knew that just like even if Randy didn't hand us the joint
a Randy had something to do with that joint getting to us that was also the same show that that
woman come that had come to New York yep custom-made t-shirt that was pretty sweet but her friend
skipped the line to take pictures yeah in New York in New York yeah grab my face to try and
force me into the picture because I wouldn't take pictures with her because she
She skipped those people, and I thought she was very rude,
and instead we didn't hit and left and then tried to come back.
She's like the opposite of a show from the road.
For sure.
That's one of my favorite things about, like,
those stories and our experiences,
because we talk all the time about how people in other parts of the country
think that, you know, we're like unicorns or we're, you know, unique or special.
And it's like, we've met people way more red than us at our fucking shows.
They're fucking, that are liberals.
They're there.
They love it.
You know, and they're red as hell, man.
Well, let's read some more dates.
How about that?
We're going to be in Riley, North Carolina, November 9th.
Charlotte, the 10th, and the 11th.
Then we go to Greensboro, the 12th.
We got a week off, then we go back to Denver.
I'm pumped about that for the 19th.
And then it looks like we're going to be off a little bit for Thanksgiving.
Then we're going to do November 28th and 29th in Chattanooga.
December 1st through the 3rd in Nashville, Orlando on the 7th,
Clearwater, which is right by Tampa on the 8th.
I guess if you're from Tampa and you're listening, you knew that,
so there was no reason for me to say it.
Atlanta, Georgia, on the 9th, Birmingham on the 10th.
And then we're all for a couple weeks.
And then right before Christmas, we're going to be in Portland, the 21st through the 23rd.
I'm not going to be there on a 23rd.
Portland also was great.
We got barbecue given to us there and a colossal donut in the shape of the Sunsphere,
the Knoxville Sunsphere from Voodoo Donuts.
And Christy.
I think brought that.
That's true.
Yeah, Portland was awesome.
She said that Voodoo, she's pretty sure, just used the penis pan that they used for bachelor parties to make the Sunsphere.
Yeah, yeah, hilarious.
You know what was funny is also, I just remember we were in Brooklyn, I think we're in Brooklyn.
Somebody asked me why the Dallas skyline on my shirt, has had the Sunsphere on it.
Yeah, I said, no, it was not sure of Sunsphere.
And I, well, and well, so.
Wait, I said.
That was my shirt, and I lost it that night.
No, no, no.
If it was in Brooklyn, it was.
it's the Dexatines shirt that I had.
Did you have that on in Brooklyn?
Yeah, yeah.
It was my shirt.
It was Dallas when this happened.
It was the Dexatine shirt.
It wasn't in Dallas.
It was somebody from Dallas.
And they said, uh, and I said, no, it's Knoxville.
And the guy was like, why did they copy Dallas?
And I said, no, Knoxville's was there first.
Uh, it wasn't.
Which makes this even funnier.
You said it.
But I was, like, well, no, like, hell, they copied us or whatever.
And the guy was like, no, book that whatever.
And Drew goes.
Drew was like.
God damn it.
Yes, they did.
Listen,
you know what?
You got anything else to say about it?
I whip your ass to we find the corner in that motherfucker.
That makes it so much funnier that you were wrong.
I fell out of my chair.
That we had people on stage because we run out of seats or whatever.
The reason I thought it was my shirt is because I had a shirt on the head and on it
because I had on that Knoxville Skyline shirt.
And the reason I thought of that, another road story.
We went to that, remember we had that karaoke party after the show in the room next
door and we thought
I mean you said it was literally just
fans from our show spilled over
into that bar and we're just hanging out or I thought
that yeah I didn't I know y'all
so we thought we'd be gods so me and Corey
think well we can do whatever fuck we want
all of our fans are about to watch us do karaoke
so we convinced the karaoke dudes
to let us go next and do two
songs and like it was like an hour
deep line yeah we did the killers
I know and we immediately took our shirts off
threw it in the crowd and about halfway through that song I
realize these people did not come to our show and they're having a very mediocre time with us right now and they are wondering why we're shirtless yeah because here's the thing we if we were the rendition of the killers that we did at uh what's the what's the place rick always takes us in knoxville uh
thread gillard bull feathers at bull feathers that would have been one of their top five performances of all time we were in brooklyn new york but he sucked no it was one of the top five of all time those people just don't know how to appreciate
art. That's true.
It was good.
Anyway, someone stole my shirt.
I was on stage with y'all
screaming the whole time.
Oh, y'all were both way more drunk than I was and
me and you rap because of that.
We all rated.
We did an outcast song.
Because we did two songs.
I was up there.
It was a second song came on.
Everyone booed and got mad that we had to do two songs.
Someone said, why do you get to do two songs?
And I said, you sell this fucking room out and I'll let you do whatever you want
to do.
Yeah, no, I was there the whole time.
But again, both the y'all were way more hammered to me.
And that also included the fact that I was very very.
very aware the whole time of what actually was happening,
which was that this was just their standard karaoke crowd,
and 80% of them had no idea who we were or what was going on.
And I knew we weren't hitting for them.
And we weren't.
It took me a lot longer to figure out we weren't hitting for them.
But someone stole my damn shirt.
And that, by the first night, I wore it.
Yeah, once I figured it out, I didn't give a shit.
I continued to have a blast.
Well, let me finish these out because I'm towards the end here.
we are going to be in Asheville, North Carolina, January 27th, and 28th.
We're getting in the next year now, boys.
Uh-oh.
And then you can go to our website and you'll see the dates for these, but we don't have the links up quite yet.
Dallas on February 8th, Austin, the 9th, San Antonio the 10th, Houston, the 11th.
And then coming soon, we don't have exact dates, but we want y'all to know if you're listening and you're into this.
This is where we're going to be in 2018.
The dates will be up soon.
Albuquerque, I've never been in New Mexico.
Fogh.
Boulder, Charleston, Charlottesville.
Cleveland, Detroit, Jacksonville, Little Rock, Miami, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Oxford.
I can't wait to go back to Oxford.
We've got to tell that story.
Phoenix, Pittsburgh, Salt Lake City, West Palm, and it just says West Virginia.
We don't even...
Just doing the whole state.
Yeah, we're just going to do the state.
And then West Palm again, apparently.
All right, well, that seems like a typo.
But anyway...
Yeah.
Are you sure Bubba wasn't at West Palm Beach?
It was Fort Lauderdale.
I still think it's Jacksonville.
Jacksonville.
I know.
It wasn't Jacksonville, because Jacksonville was the theater my buddy Paul was out.
It was absolutely Fort Lauderdale because West Palm was, they had like just,
West Palm wasn't a great show.
And there wasn't, I mean, it was like, it was fine.
But, and that's also like, that's where that drunk Trump guy got on.
But that was.
I told him, I was a recurring theme of me telling people.
Because Bubble was part of an awesome night.
That's how I know is Fort Lauderdale.
Because after that, I had won like $1,500 at the blackjack table earlier that day.
and then after the show, we went back to the table,
and I won, like, another $7 or $800 or something like that.
And you gave me $100 of that, and I went and made it hit on roulette.
Yeah.
Was that the night that I took Corey's Fork?
Yes.
No, yeah, we got enough.
We were at that place for a couple nights,
and, yeah, one of those nights, Young's, about fistfalled.
Closest we've ever come.
Which is saying something.
That also, you just mentioned that story.
That was definitely where Bubble was.
I told that Trump supporter that he was focusing on the liberal part
and needed to focus on the redneck and I'd whip his ass.
I swear everyone, listen, those are all the times I told someone that I'd whip their ass.
It has all happened on tour.
It's just been three of them.
I mean, on tour.
Talking about the sun's fair.
I'll whip your ass till we find a corner in that motherfucker.
Yeah, but he knew I was kidding.
But if you will notice every time Drew tells somebody he'll whip their ass, it is extremely clever.
He don't just say I'll whip your ass.
There's also like a pretty good Mark Twain quote that goes at the end of it to make it kind of better.
That's my attempt to be Doc Holl.
holiday yeah oh that's fantastic so man that that that freaks me out like just you say in in 2018
just obviously i want to continue doing this this has been my life on dream we're going to die a
mushroom club no it's not even that it's just like this has gone this has gone so quickly
like i feel like we i feel like i just got a phone call laying on uh my in my parents guest
house on the daybed that was like tray's video just got 20 million views i think we might can turn
to send us something. What the fuck are we getting?
You know what? It's weird because
I totally agree with that. It has
gone super... It has gone super quickly,
but at the same time,
like, uh, the lipstick
lounge, which was the very first week of the tour
feels like a lifetime ago.
It does. It's like, man, it seems
like it feels like so long ago.
It seems like it's all happened so fast,
but at the same time it's hard to remember a time when we
didn't head. Right.
You all remember... Well, they ain't never been a time
we didn't have. The time the rest of it was. The time the rest of it is.
the rest of the world didn't know.
Y'all remember the Oxford?
We had that book event and we went to the people who owned the bookstore and ran the
book event's house.
Yeah, I called them the landed gentry.
In front of them.
I DJed all night, which was just...
Corey kept playing their records.
I just repeated sticky fingers by Rowan Stones all night.
Lord, we got drunk.
So drunk.
I cried.
I'm certain I did if you did.
I cried, I listened to...
uh, Conway Twitty.
That's my job.
You took a, you took a taxi to get a butterfinger at 4.30 in the morning.
A van.
And Drew threw up.
Into the flowers?
On the, yeah, the hotel's flower arrangement.
Yeah, we got drunk.
And that was also.
That was a hit in.
Which one of y'all was standing by me when I started telling that conservative judge about
himself?
I was over there.
I was out on the porch.
Yeah, out on the porch.
I was over by the record player hitting, but I do remember.
that you doing.
He wasn't sure what to think of us,
and he was being polite,
and then he found that I used to be a public defender,
and then I don't even remember what we were talking about.
Ah, whatever.
I probably told him I'd whip his ass in a clever way.
I ate half a pound cake with my bare hands before we left.
That was such a great fucking time.
I remember these were people in the book industry.
I remember us as a group at the end of the night telling them
the problems with the publishing industry is that they don't have no drunks anymore.
Yeah.
And we had so hammered we could barely talk.
Yeah, but we're sitting there because it was,
he was telling Larry Brown stories.
We're ridiculous.
We had.
He was telling cool Larry Brown stories.
He was talking about how Larry Brown would like be a drunk.
Run up a $1,500 bar tab in Nashville, you know, every time he came in to do a, you know,
a book event or whatever.
Yeah, back in the day when that was a shit ton of, of booze.
So, God damn it.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
Or not.
No.
Or not.
We spent $800 on liquor on the publisher's dime and that didn't hit for them.
We'll just leave it at that.
To be fair, that is what inspired Drew's quote to say.
That's why the goddamn publishing industry's dying.
There's no fucking drugs anymore.
Well, on that note, on that note, I just went to New Orleans last week to be a part of this British documentary.
I don't know the name of it or nothing
yet y'all watch out for that
britts
they were great though and it's going to be a cool
thing but
after the taping was over
it's going to be called no look at his teeth though
after the
all the taping was done
we went and got something to eat
and I told them that story
and before I got to like
the point of it
like when I was just telling the story
And I was like, yeah.
And so, you know, the first night, we run up an $800 tab or whatever.
They genuinely, they were like, oh, right.
Okay.
It's not that bad.
You know, that convinced to pounds.
No, that's nothing, you know.
And then when I told them about it and then I said, you know, the reaction we got.
And they were like, what?
Right.
You know, really?
That's nothing.
That's fucking nothing.
To be fair, $800 buys like eight beers, I'm pretty sure right now in the UK.
still
we right they wrong
for sure
um
and they also
said before I could say it
the host of the thing Gary
this British dude was like
he goes
he's like
he's like
I mean you know
three rednecks like
what do you think was going to happen
you know and I was like
dude
tell me about it.
That's what I've been saying.
Oh, God damn it.
That is fucking funny.
Hey, speak, I want to bring up something.
I don't know if it's important,
but I noticed that the place we're doing in Denver is called the Oriental.
Yeah.
That's,
well, where's this going?
Well, that's okay.
Oh, you don't know.
Oh, no, no, no.
Oriental is an offensive word.
It's offensive to describe people as Oriental.
Okay.
And the reason I ask is because,
uh, that's okay.
Right?
That's everybody.
Let me tell you, I'm, as you say, I'm just, I don't, hey.
I read it and I was like, I thought, you know.
And so in this scenario, I'm trying to be good, by the way.
Right.
But so.
The word itself isn't a slur.
It's that it never meant to apply to people.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Okay.
Well, the reason I asked.
San Francisco will be at the queer house on November 20th.
So, well, anyways, earlier, mom was that my mom was asking me.
She's like, you know, where are y'all going to be?
And blah, blah.
I said, we're in Denver at the Oriental.
And I said that.
And I was like, I don't.
And mom's like, and of course my mind, I'm going to put her, as you say, on front street here.
Of course, mom's like, what's wrong with that?
And I was like, I don't know, actually.
I don't know if we can.
And mom goes, all Chinese people don't give a shit.
Like, that was her, you know.
I mean, she ain't wrong.
To be fair to her, I feel like they do typically kind of take all that in stride.
You know what I mean?
Like that.
well you know
well they're too busy hitting
is my point
like you know they
I don't feel like
I don't feel like
I don't feel like they worry too much
we don't have to get into that
I just seen that
I didn't know if that was a thing
I was confused
and of course instead of looking it up
I thought I'd just
you know
say it and see where it was
which is what I do
right
well
that was fine
it's fine
it is fine
I'm just saying about
what I have said
I was also
just thinking about
you looking at that and like
we're going to see if that's true by the way we are
mental gymnastics
how in stride do they take it
they'll let us know on Twitter
no they won't stupid white people will
so more of that on the tour
we've got all new material
we didn't get into that
we've the name of the tour this time around
