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, 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 skewniverse, 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 in response to? 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.

They're the liberal rednecks they like cornbread but six they care way too much but don't give a fun. They're the liberal rednecks that makes some people People upset, but they got three big old dicks that you can sun. Here we are. We are here. We are here. Hey, so I would like it if everyone would come see me at the comedy catch this weekend. It's December 20th or the 21st.

I believe that's Friday and Saturday. Doing three shows, home for the holidays. I don't know exactly who all will be there except for. I do know that on the last night at least, I will be joined by the good buddies of good cop and rad cop. I'm sitting here. I don't know what we're going to do. I want to do something special with the guys since I never have like a band at my disposal

and I like to sing and it's Christmas. I was thinking trying to talk to them into doing some pogs, but who fucking knows. It's like that. Do you guys are at my disposal. I don't mean they're at, but what I mean is like they're already there. You know what I mean?

And I know we could do stuff together. Like normally if I had a band like I would have to like hire a band, but they're there, you know, and, you know, I'm sure they'd want to do a thing. You were going to say, you want to do the poke song just so you could say the F slur. Not just so. I mean, you know, it is a super hitting part of. I was just listening to the version that they did at Shane McGowan's funeral, and they didn't say it.

They said bag it or something. And I mean, it works just the same. You just said it. What did you just said? Bagot. Bagot. B, like with a B. I heard someone do it at a Christmas party and they said something about you can't hack it. I mean, I kind of, that's, it was a funeral and it was live, so I kind of get it.

But there's part of me that goes, okay, in that instance, it's a, A, it's a woman saying it to a guy, so it's funny. Like, it's funny. You know what I mean? And B, it's kind of like, yeah, they were arguing, he just called her an old slut on junk. And they never, they never censor that part. I think, I think they're both being ahead of their time. I think that they're not slut shaming or throwing slurs. I think they are, you know, Brooklyn, yes, queening.

She's clearly queer. Right. So she's allowed to say the word. He's probably queer too. All right. If you guys want to hear Corey say that, go to there. If you want me to not say it, I'll be in Asheville, North Carolina, December 20th at Kataba Brewing. You can find links to tickets on my story or, I mean, in my profile, whatever.

you guys know how to fucking do it tie my goddamn name in nashville December 20th it's a makeup show if you had tickets in the October date and you haven't been contacted just show up with that ticket with email or whatever and I'll kill everybody if they don't let you damn it's my last show of the year I think so yeah yeah me too last show of the year and uh I got to tell you uh I'm still feeling it from Nashville you know I was gonna say your last show of the year also your sixth show of the year Yeah. Yeah. I barely, well, that's, and that's why I'm so worn out because I don't really do shit anymore. But like, I was thinking about it actually. Like, I did a weekend not that long ago, like in October or something. And I remember being like, oh, I hadn't done a full weekend in a while and I did. And I came home and I wasn't that worn out. And I was like, that's weird because Nashville always wears me out. Maybe I've gotten my muscles back or something. And that came home so worn out and just so empty from Nashville. And I started thinking about it. And I was like, well, I don't think it's, it's not just because Nashville is a full weekend where we're super busy. I think genuinely, and I know, like, we put our whole selves into every show, don't get me wrong, but we've said before, there's something special

about Nashville. And I think what it is, is that, like, in Nashville from, what's that, buddy? So I was saying it's drugs, but go ahead. Well, yeah, it's both, but, like, I'm saying, like, for the entire time I'm in Nashville, every aspect of it makes me so happy, like, seeing y'all, seeing, you know, everybody at the club, seeing old friends and stuff, that I'm, like, so overjoyed that when I get home, it's just natural that I'm like, oh, damn. That's not all the time. This is like an old comic joke, but it's like, great, my family. Because it's almost like, yeah, the best part of me, I just, I gave my all.

I left it out on the field. And now I just want to sleep. Yeah, I also feel like that too. Like, you know, we were all doing new material and stuff. and I really do truly feel like I left it all on the field and I just, I got nothing left to give for at least a couple days. And let me say, too, speaking of new material, when I post these Mario clips,

the well-read nation better come through on sharing them because I don't know when I'm going to get to, because they still ain't sent me the damn tape. I've asked them for it in a few different ways. I've offered them money. Well, yeah, I want those tapes too because that's the only record I have of my new material since some of it I just made up on my head.

Well, they always said it to us, but I'm like, I don't want it in two weeks. Yeah, I understand that's annoying. can I just get this part of my tape and I'll give you money. And even when you offer money, nobody wants to work these days. Now they don't. Now they don't. What's up, Trey?

We just went ahead. Is my microphone working? Yeah, it's a little quiet, turned up. Okay. Trey has on the camouflage Tennessee hat. I hope that everyone at the Ohio State Stadium this weekend has on a bright orange non-camouflage Tennessee hat. So we see them. Rumor has it, Trey.

we have bought between 38 and 44% of the tickets. Nice. Yeah, so I was... Oh, so you go later, Trey. He's back. Oh, he's back. I was texting with Tennessee, fan buddies of mine earlier about all that, and apparently there's some...

There's conflicting reports on that whole situation. I'm sure. Some of those articles or whatever just from like seat geek or whatever. Right. And not like just overall stats, but they've also... Ohio State, like, if... administrators and stuff have been issuing statements and shit, like warning people of like Tennessee takeover or whatever,

which makes me think that they're just like trying to sell tickets. Yeah, right. That it ain't going to rally the base. Yeah, is that any better? Is that better? Yeah, you're good. No, you're good. Okay.

Okay. Now we can hear you. Yeah. To get the app open to fix it. Saturday night while I'm doing two shows in Chicago. show naturally. Yeah, that don't hit. I'll be doing shows, too, but I can run to the bar, I guess.

I only have show Friday, no show Saturday. Also, obviously, I don't care as much. Right. I knew, I only, I have two shows Saturday, but only Saturday. And they're playing a playoff game Friday night, and I was so hoping that would be ours, but I knew it wouldn't. I knew that, like, Saturday night primetime is the headliner spot. And of these opening games, I knew that that was going to be the ball.

and the Buckeyes, and it is. So I don't know what I'm going to do. You think I should just like not talk to anybody? Should I just tell the whole crowd like, hey, I know Christmas and y'all came and see me and all that, but. Y'all don't hear from me. I'm not going to talk to you by. Kind of. I mean, you don't know anybody anything other than the show technically.

You know what I mean? Like that's just real. I mean, because look, here's the thing, man. Most shows you go to, you see the person and then you leave. I mean, honestly, 99.9% of shows, I, I know. ever been to you see the person and then you leave i know we do meet and greets and stuff but it's not you know it's not required just the thing it's a special man it's tennessee in the playoffs it's different i think they would understand like to me if they really love you they would understand

yeah i know because it's pretty much either that or like kill yourself yeah yeah pretty much yeah i don't know what i'm going to do yeah that don't hit uh because i could try to like record it or i can yeah i don't know i don't have any good options. Back in the day, that could like work. You know, there was like a whole plot point to a Seinfeld episode where like Jerry wanted to see a Mets game and he recorded it and like he basically would have gotten away with it had Kramer not walked in and been like, oh, the Mets. You know what I mean? It's like back then you could do that. But now it's just like, bro, in an Uber home, they might have a ticker. I wouldn't even go home. I would just, I would just stay at the green room at

the venue. Right. And watch it out. I would take any chances on leave being exposed to any other kind of a public situation, but I don't know. It just depends on... There's some old lady, like, singing if she cleans up at three in the morning. Good old rockintosh. The walls. Yeah, I don't know what I would do if I were you. If I had a good way to record it, I would try to make it back to my Ocel room without

looking at my phone. Right, but that's part of the whole, like, talking to people part is, like, I can't imagine getting through a whole meet and greet without something giving it away. Even if there's, like, TVs on in the area we're at, or a bartender talking. walking you there's just a million different things that could happen in a scenario to whereas it's like if i just leave and i got it recorded on my laptop back home or whatever i can like plug my fucking ears up keep my phone off get back to the think that's your only option and then yeah that's what kind of what i meant right i wasn't trying to say here's how you do a meeting greet yeah i think you got to just say fuck that what's for everybody listed chicago you also have to not do the meeting greet for the first show if you chose to choose to go that route because if there's pictures of you at a meeting greet from one of you at a meeting greet from one one show. That's Dick, Dick Move. Right.

Yeah, I know. And I mean, the first show, this is already happening to me a few times this year because Tennessee's had nothing but primetime games all year, which used to like hitting SEC games. When SEC was on CBS for years, they put the hit this game at 330. They didn't put it in prime time, which did rule.

That's what I was accustomed to, and that's what hits for me. Me too. And it went to ABC this year, and they don't do it like that. And so Tennessee is pretty, Tennessee's pretty much exclusively played in primetime. And I've had a lot of shows, obviously, on Saturday nights. And like when you have two shows, early show start, late show start, pretty standard, somewhere around-ish, 7 and 9-15 or 9-30 or whatever. And I know from experience those start times, a primetime college game, it couldn't be worse.

It's like it will just be starting as I get on stage for the first show. It will be right at halftime when I get back in between. the two. Correct. And then it will be getting into like hit, you know, determining time when I go on stage for the last one and it will end while I'm on stage almost certainly, unless something changes the timing of it. So that's what I'm saying.

I've got to figure something out. But that's also kind of cool. I don't know. Well, like, you don't have to go through the stress of hating your life. Yeah. We, that's true, you could just not watch the game. So we were playing Arkansas.

when I was doing shows of the club in Missouri, and I came off stage in between the shows, and it was around halftime, and it was three to nothing balls. And we were heavily favored in that game, and I was like, what the fuck is this? So now I'm like,

because in my head, I was like, oh, if we beat them like we should, I can miss this one, it's not a big deal. And I checked in, it was three nothing balls at halftime, and I was like,

what the fuck is going on? And I start paying attention. I'm about to go on stage in the second show when it's becoming clear that we're in serious danger of losing, and also that the game is going to end while I'm up there. And like,

I came this close to putting the game on my phone, you know, and just having the phone laying on the stool up there. And it was like, that was a level of disrespect too far. I was like, I mean, I came this close. And I was like,

Trey, you can't, you can't do that. But that wasn't a playoff game, you know what I'm saying. That was a regular season. Right. And also I read,

here's the thing, man, I really think you're one of the only of the, of the three of us for sure. You're the only archetype, of comedian who could get away with it because like you got your shit so down. You know what I mean?

Like you got your shit so down that it's like second nature. You know what I mean? Me and Drew we got too bad ADD. Like we'd be in the middle of something you know what I mean? Like you can just run on your subconscious. You're a fucking machine. I couldn't do it. I'd have to tell them what was going on probably at some point.

Yeah, I'd have to get them involved. Yeah, but I mean, no, I'm not going to do that. that's but I'm I got to figure out what it is I am going to do but anyway so y'all think it's aliens or what I was about to ask y'all I just put out so I just put out a video on it where I took the official position I went with Mark as I often do where it's like he's probably right I think it's like just marx's whole thing is just like it ain't it's just mass hysteria but it's not going to end up being really anything right and he's like remember we had that Chinese weather balloon thing Not that long ago that people treated the same way when it first started.

And then that fizzled out. And obviously, this is pretty different, very different. But it's like, I brought this up in the video because it's a funny example. Not all that long ago, we had a homicidal demon clowns in the woods for a while. You guys remember that? Yeah. You don't. Now that you're saying it.

Remember clowns in the woods. Well, first of all, I'll explain to you how I don't remember clowns in the woods because the world we live in is like you can just forget clowns in the woods. But as you're saying it, I definitely remember that it was a thing. I don't remember the context, though. You know what I mean? That was also an ICP song, Clowns in the Woods.

Right. If you guys didn't forget that, who could forget that? People, it got, this has never been confirmed, but people ended up saying it was a very quickly abandoned viral marketing campaign for the It remake that was coming out that year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they abandoned it because people freaked the fuck out.

Well, that's like three years ago, right? You can't put clowns in the woods and expect people not to freak the fuck out. And isn't that the point? But there's no way to. But they've, that's never been confirmed and they've always denied that that is what was happening. But that's like the prevailing theory, I guess, as to what was actually happening. Do you remember when Cartoon Network or Adult Swim, their plan was to project cartoons doing a viral marketing campaign in the subway? But the problem is, you set a projector down.

It just looks like a fucking bomb. Yeah, yeah, right. So those things never work out. My official position is that it's surveillance. That there's been copycat since, like, all right, a bunch of the drones went up in New Jersey. We're going to do it here in Tennessee because we own drones and wouldn't that be funny? But that this started out as probably a government contractor in the defense world. I mean, because, like, have you ever seen the thing on Pikachu?

You remember the game? You got to go find a Pokemon. Yeah. I play that literally every week still. I love Pokemon. So there's just like, it's not been like confirmed or completely proven, but there's this pretty stellar conspiracy theory about who owned the app. They just had people walking around with their app on that it was all just to map out these major cities. Right.

And not necessarily so they could like kill everybody, but just like that's an expensive project to overtake. Anyway, my theory on the drones is that it is just part of some... I just earned a silver medal in mine. I got some kind of mapping thing that, you know, to fully map out like 3D. Like what if it's Google? A city, you know, you're going to have to... And the reason why is the FAA, no one's freaked out. Somebody knows what these are.

Right, I agree. Yeah. Why, so it's, but, right, some of them are probably, it's something like that. I mean, why. And there's copycats. Well, it's not even just copycats. It's also just like, like with people start, there's a, I mean, if you thought, I've seen random drones and me too, plenty of times in my life.

Like, I'll be somewhere and I'll be like, the fuck is that drone? And I've never thought. I've never thought that it was all that wild. But right now, if you're out at night and you've been hearing this shit and you see a drone somewhere, your brain is going to go straight to this shit. So that's part of the... Because there's... Night a little different, because

like a lot of people use them as like cameras and stuff. Like, you know, first off, I'll say this, you're not supposed to have a drone in a national battlefield, but just because you're not supposed to don't mean that people don't. You know what I mean? Because like, people want to be taking pictures and shit. Like, a lot of people just use them for like aerial footage

or whatever. So because of that, like, yeah, I see them all the time around here. You know what I mean? And in the Chattanooga area, no one ever freaks out, you know, it's just like, oh, that's one M&P because like again like do my buddy Chris has one like a pretty high high powered one you know that he uses to film for work and stuff I can get one like I don't know what some people are acting like drones are a thing that only the government can have right now you know what I mean it's like that's not true like they are more and more accessible to regular people so my thing is like

if I was I was in Jersey and I saw a drone my literal first thought would be they're filming a movie that my first thought now I'm an idiot you know what I mean what part of what Mark is also pointing out. I know The Daily Show did the thing about this too, where it's like, also there's so many people have drones, high powered ones and stuff. There's plenty of people right now who are like, we got to figure, we got to see what this drone deal is about. Right.

I'm up to send my drone up there. You know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. See if I can find some drones. Find some drones. And he's like, oh, shit, there's drones up here. And then there's other dudes just like him with their drones looking at his drone being like, holy shit, there's a drone right there.

And there's people on the ground. And there's people on the ground. And there's fucking four drones right there. I can get my drone up there. It's just all dudes looking for drones. So it's like shit like that because they are, again, they are relatively common and readily available. And it's like, but there have been legitimately weird ones too, but it's becoming a mass hysteria event, I think, because of misidentified ones. Because also some of the ones that have gone viral and stuff have been like since proven forensically or whatever the word is to be not even.

Like it's a plane that's far off or whatever. It's some kind of area. Didn't that one dude shoot a FedEx plane? I think he lasered what turned out to be a FedEx plane or something like that. But so I think that I think Drew's probably right, right. There's also, apparently, there's also orbs. Look, it's aliens, what I think. It is.

Well, they've already said it's aliens. And we just gave up. But I just, I just feel like I'm tired. I don't want to be heard again. I'm not going to go on the record and saying that, you know, this is aliens and have it end up not being and just disappear in a amount of nothing. which I do think is what will probably happen. You want a third rail theory? Alien adjacent.

Inside the alien theory world is, all right, because we kind of all know, I mean, almost no one knows, but we're all aware of plasma, the idea of plasma and a state of matter that is neither liquid nor solid. Yeah, correct. And most people are at least familiar with dark matter. So there are things that have been. men recorded that scientists are calling plasmoids and the woo-woo community who is adjacent to the alien

community is starting to claim that these are aliens and this is how they you know they transcend space and time so they're and there's like some some videos of this phenomenon happening in nine sky where it's some energy transfer right it's it's like lightning but you know a new kind and when i say it's like lightning i don't mean it is lightning i mean i'm trying to to describe a thing. It's a very nature unknown at this point. Right. It's like lightning in the sense of it's a, it's a reaction or it's a explosion of some type of matter energy. Right. Right. So, so a theory on this, and you can, you can believe the plasmoids are aliens or you can just believe they're a natural phenomenon we don't yet understand, is that these are experiments in an

attempt to understand and or cause plasmoids to pop up, which is what the orbs are. so that you can tape them, measure them, figure out what they are, right? And I was thinking about that the other day, like, imagine the first time Nikola Tesla got that coil out. Yeah. And then lights at lightning or whatever you want to call it and was zapping one way or the other. I bet there's a lot of people who was like, well, that's fucking the devil or aliens. You know what I mean? For sure.

For sure. So my fun theory, that I don't believe, but my fun theory is it's a scientific experiment or it started out as one in an attempt to draw. all these orbs out, not because they're aliens, but just like we figured out a way, you know, kind of like Tesla, you can get electricity to flow this way by a lot of certain magnets. I don't know. Benjamin Franklin with his goddamn kite, you know what I mean? Like making a lightning shoot happen.

Right. I'm too dumb to explain what they were doing. But in other words, they're trying to create a physical phenomenon that we are not yet familiar with and they're gaining some success at it and it looks weird as hell. That's not one I buy, but that's my more fun one. Or, I mean, I'm a person on Reddit said. The explanation for the two orbs, Drew, is that, or the two types of, two types of drones are UAP, UFOs, one of which is the orbs, and one of which is the more drony drone-looking drones.

Drones. Droney-dron-looking drones. That's also an ICP song. The two kinds are, the orbs, they are from a benevolent alien race who's trying to, you know, shepherd and or protect us. and that the droney drone drones are from a, they're like long time intergalactic rival alien race who are, you know, bad guys, nefarious and bad guys.

And let me guess the bad guys have been here for a while and we're hoping the orbs are going to liberate them from us and that's why we're all stupid and miserable. Yeah, they're in a constant struggle for the future of humanity, basically. So we need to be team orb. I think it's wild to say that like you know it. Tell me, it's funny. It's funny to say that because I did.

that in the video that I made today. But what I wanted to say was like, clearly joking. That doesn't, like, of all the things that could be, that doesn't sound ridiculous to me. The thing that sounds ridiculous is saying it as if you're like, well, this is what it is. You can find that on the internet for all this stuff.

There's people. And it's like, dude, if you are like me, if you like this type of stuff, you get into reading, you're like, I don't know, sounds like he knows what he's talking about to me. And there's like, not that person did not, but like, there's purported whistleblowers who are a.

anonymous, right, who will post on Reddit and stuff and say with no proof whatsoever that they, they, you know, they worked at these secret facilities and they have the answers and stuff and they'll tell you what it is. And one of them did wrote out like a goddamn manifesto about it or more like a, not a dissertation, but what's the like, if you put together like a testimony for like a file to approve a thing and like a court, do you know what I mean? Like if you built a case. I would say dissertation for that or like a thesis or something. Yeah, it was just- DOSIA is a document you would prepare for official business, including, but not limited to court. But when you go to court, that's just as far as I know called your testimony.

But this dude put like, well, no, I'm sure it isn't anywhere remotely close to a legitimate full-fledged dossier. But to an idiot like me, this is like Dossier level. There's got to put a lot of time and effort into is what I'm saying. Was it very end up? Science-y, yeah, it was, but also science fiction-y, you know. But I remember, and it's been a long time since I read it, but I read the whole thing enthralled. the whole way. And this was still to do with the drone.

The UFO alien world has been on drones for a minute now as opposed to like inhabited flying saucers or whatever. It's like these things we keep saying in the Navy pilot videos and all the stuff in the 60 Minutes thing. They were talking. All of those, they're all drones. Well, this dude said that these drones are obviously they're fully autonomous, but they're manufactured in a like mothership slash factory facility.

facility that's gargantuan at the bottom of the ocean. In fact, where else the Bermuda Triangle, that's where it is. It's back. We've been talking about how we wish it was back. Or down in that general area and that they send the drones up. And he said that where they worked, by the way, they didn't know exactly what the, he said they were very, he said they've been here for a real long time. And as far, they have people that work for this ultra secret government organization have different theories on what they're doing here. and there's no consensus,

but they do seem to think that they're not interested in fucking us up, at least not yet, you know. It could be like a scouting party or observational party, or we could be their entertainment. There's a ton of different things I think it could be, but that they don't seem hostile so far. I don't know why I'm talking about this.

Like it's an actual report from a credible person. It's just a comment. Let me say something on that. I could totally believe that. Part of me wants to or does, that there's aliens and that they're not hostile. But this goes back to the thing about mass hysteria and your boy sending up his drone to see what the drones are doing and then his boys sending up his drone. Some of these videos I'm looking at him, I'm going, okay, guys, that looks like a dumb fuck drone.

Like that looks like some of our worst technology. There's no way that what I'm looking at came from a superior alien race that has this facility in the ocean. They've hidden from us for thousands of years and they can travel through space time and on light because that looks. looks like a toy. It's moving like a toy. It's stupid like a toy. It's fat, dumb, and it don't hit. You're right.

I think the orb, you know, some of the orbs, there's different, like. Orbs freak me out. Right. But you're right. The ones that we've been seeing mostly lately in Jersey and stuff, yeah, they just, they look, you're right. They don't look like highly advanced intergalactic drones. They just look like just a regular ass drone.

They got red and green lights on them, which is like FAA regulations and stuff and that type of thing. It's like they're in place. they shouldn't be, but they look pretty standard. So you guys heard the theory, you guys heard the broken arrow theory, the lost, the lost nuke theory. That's a prevalent one on the internet. They're looking for a new.

It is our military and it is a scanning slash surveillance operation, but that they are specifically looking for something in particular, either a lost nuclear warhead or there's been a credible threat of like a major attack on the East Coast and they're, they're looking for that. But a lot of other people point out is like. Jason to the one I floated out there, so I guess I can't shit on it too hard. Well, I,

uh, the thing I said in the, in the video, which I mean, it's not, all these reports of shit are, they seem to be at night because they stand out more at night or whatever else. But it's just like,

if they were doing that, it's like, are they taking shifts? You don't like, imagine them looking for a nuke that's going to explode half the US or whatever. And they're like, well, we can't authorize any overtime,

you know, like we got. It's a holiday season. Right. People got time off. They've already put in for, you know, we got a, and then, you know, that would be very governmental employee of them. But, but yeah, it just seemed, that's that one. And also what Drew said. There would be people, you would, I think if it was something like that, I think you'd be seeing billionaires and shit getting the fuck out of the East Coast and trying to hide the fact that they are or there would be things like that would be hacked. Because if that's what it was, then they would know. People at certain levels would know. And I think you'd be able to, something would. happening that would yeah because like Drew said that's the main thing is like people do not seem to be freaking out other than the people other than us plebs right yeah

and by matter you know what I mean I don't mean like just the common man the lay people we're the ones that are freaking out everybody yeah everybody near the top or that seems like they should freak out about this does not seem to be freaking out about it in fact that was a thing that I thought was funny about the FBI

when they first response to it they basically just said they were like they were like look we don't we don't know what it is, but we know that it's fine. Right. That's a horrible respect. Like, you couldn't come up with nothing better than that. They were like, if it was worth knowing, we'd know about it.

But you have to, but that's just, you just have to know that that ain't going to hit for people. They should have let me do it. I should have been like, we know it's fine because look how dumb they are. Right. Look at these drones. Why wouldn't they have already done something? Slow, fat, dumb, don't hit. these drones are. Now, let me show you just stock footage from an F-16 from 30 years ago.

Right. So let's go. If they were worth the shit, why is New Jersey still here? You know what I mean? Like, why didn't they do something? Why are they just showing up to fuck around? Why'd they go to New Jersey? Yeah.

Right. If they've been around for, I mean, I feel like that's one of the things that's somewhat reassuring about it. Of course, you could still come up with, you know, weird theories that make it make sense for why they wouldn't have fucked with this yet, but that they still are going to. But, you know, I mean, dude, it's always some alien shit these days. And it's always some new alien stuff coming up and drone sightings and all this stuff.

And even if even in the world where you think they are aliens or alien non-human technology, it's like, well, they've been around for a minute and they ain't a splodding us yet. So that seems to be something. But again, you know, if you want to. It's like, what are they waiting on? Well, if you want to be like, it's a scouting party, the real party, I ain't here yet type of thing. They're just gathering information. much as that until the real show arrives.

But also one of these, some of these people I say that go on comment sections and just purport to know. And because there's some super secret high level, you know, security clearance whistleblower when really they're just a lunatic in their basement. But one of those people, one of the, I don't,

it might even been the guy with the dossier I was talking about, but said one of the theories that's, you know, commonly held in the community where people, you know, who know the answers is that they're like, they're like, waiting to determine whether or not we are worthy of not saving, but of like elevating.

Like, basically. Yeah. Bringing into the intergalactic community. Like, yeah, like in Star Trek when first time that happened and we learned. What more do they need to fucking sit? Every time I've heard that, I was like, God, I really hope that isn't what they're doing. Yeah. That's what they're doing.

I know we fail in that. Unless they're all stupid too. There ain't no way they're looking at this shit show in particular the past few years and giving us a passing grade on that. I was about to mention this is like the least we've been salvageable in a long time. Right. Like where you were talking earlier about like, okay, you know, the drones are the ones coming to attack us and the orbs are the one coming to save us. This is the first time in my life where I've ever been like fucking go drones. You know what I mean?

Just who gives a shit? Like let's not even fight back. but also to go back on something you said a minute ago, like, you know, this isn't coming from a credible source. It's like a quote-unquote whistleblower, but they just sound like a lunatic in their basement. Now, to defend that person, if it's aliens, right, if it is aliens and all this stuff we're talking about is true,

and there's a person who was working on the inside, and they actually know some of this stuff, and they're trying to tell us, wouldn't that person, no matter what, sound like a lunatic in their basement? You know what? Yeah. And also, like, you, any show you ever watch about,

like these people that like they leave like a top secret whatever like and they start whistleblowing and shit like they there's a concerted effort to make them look like lunatics you know what I'm saying like so I'm not saying that that's not true all I'm saying is if a person did know something about aliens and was telling us they would seem like a lunatic wouldn't they get deleted though on the reddit as far as red it goes like maybe but that would off them and delete all their stuff yeah but I don't know I think it's more useful to them to let them be out there and see me insane than it is to cover them up. But the other main thing, because believe me, I want, I, like, want these people to be legit. I want to believe this stuff. And I have for a long

time. But, like, the main thing for me and a lot of other people is like, Drew said, wouldn't they, you know, delete this person and also all of their stuff? Like, what stuff? All, all, any of them have ever, any of, even the ones in front of Congress, whatever, it's always just been them relaying their experience, you know, it's just their word. It's them saying, this is what happened. and I saw it with my own two eyes. But usually they say, like the ones that went in front of Congress and stuff, they say shit like there's a fucking shit. They got him.

No. They deleted Trey. They deleted Trey. Yeah. It's always just stuff that they say. Like they don't ever. And again, what I was saying, even the ones have gone front of Congress and stuff, they always say it's like, no, there's hardcore concrete,

physical evidence. It exists. It's out there. The government has it. But it's like literally none of that. No one has ever produced like. a scrap of that. Even something redacted.

Ever. Right. Never. And so that's kind of hard to look past if you're like an enthusiast who wants to get down with all this shit, in my opinion, you know. What I mean is specifically on Reddit, somebody's like, I'm a whistleblower. I'm deep in this. Blah, blah, blah.

And then it's still there four months later. And they've been commenting on dog videos. I'm like, nah. Yeah, right. You can't be having that information and also be like, I'm going to take a break to comment on dog videos. Like, you need to, if I knew shit about aliens, I wouldn't shut up about it. I wouldn't, you know, I don't know. But again, like I said, like if the government deletes it and people see that it was deleted, then that raises the antenna more.

They're like, yeah, let them say the crazy shit. Nobody believes it. You know what I mean? Especially if we leave it up, bro. I mean, Cho is right about that. People would definitely note it. Even if it was like years later, the way Reddit be, somebody would notice if they,

if the, if they would raise more flags. And then they would lose their mind. Dude, these Pap 10, you'll be shocked to hear. These subreds I'm talking about. Yeah.

Motherfuckers is wild. Yeah. And it has. Fucking tent. Got their heads covered in aluminum foil in a fucking basement bunker somewhere. And up they butt at the same time. I had a subreddit experience today. And I think ultimately it don't have for me.

The story hits. So I was scrolling on Reddit And you guys know like if you're doing it on your phone It'll just show you a thing This was a picture of Poussay Which is a very hilariously named lesbian From Orange's the New Black Yeah

And it was the picture right before she got offed And the thing said in the title What is a moment from a TV show That was too hard for you And you had to stop watching it So I replied Because I've had one of those moments I don't think they're that common.

And I think I've talked to you guys about this before, maybe not. There's a show called Rectify that was created by Ray McKinnon, Ray McKinnon of O Brother Were Arthale fame. He was also in Deadwood. Ray McKinnon created a show called Rectify, and the premise is that a guy goes to prison as a teen, gets out on a pill, it was a murder, gets out on a pill, comes back home, and it's the fallout of the fact that he's been away for 20 years, and who believed in him and who didn't, and the family's different,

but they're the same. There's a scene in which he tells his mother, it's not your fault. You need to forgive yourself. And it reminded me of my own brother being in prison and my own mom needing to forgive herself, and it broke me, and I couldn't watch it anymore.

It's one of the best shows I've ever seen in my life. It's probably my favorite show of all time. It's one of my best pieces of art ever, and I had to stop watching it. I posted that in Black People Twitter subreddit. I thought that's where that was. Wait a minute. No, no, no, wait.

Are you saying that that's not where the post was? And you actually post was. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. So I, you know, I'm in line with the theme. But I was like, I realized you're later. And I was like, man, I just waxed on about this long Ray McKinnon. But I got a big response.

A lot of people are like, dude, I didn't know anybody knew that. So the part that's not hidden for me, I think black people Twitter subreddits, just white dudes like me. That's like, yeah, they, they, yeah, that's been a thing on there for a while is that. Yeah. Every now and then something will happen. And then people would be like, See, it's times like these when you really can tell that this is almost entirely white people on here just pretending to be black or whatever.

Yeah. I was never pretending to be black. I was a long-time observer, first-time caller accidentally. Yeah, no, I think that's what a lot of it was, is that, like, it used to really just be like, you know, black people Twitter subreddit. It was purely just like, and it was awesome because Roy Wood Jr. was often the main character because he would tweet something hilarious. like Roy was like a star specifically in that niche world of black people Twitter.

Isn't they make a documentary called Black Twitter? Probably, and if they did, Roy was probably in it. But my point is, is like, a fortunate but also maybe unfortunate for them situation is that like when you curate Black People Twitter, it's going to hit real hard. And therefore we're going to want to see it. You know what I mean? And then we start lurking and then we like we always do, we colonize. Even if we don't mean to, we fucking colonize. I didn't mean to.

I just was like, oh, no, you're hitting. I relate to that. Here's my story. And then I just didn't realize what sub I was in. There was a prominent poster. I was going to try to find it, but I wouldn't even know how to search because this was a long time ago. A prominent poster in the hip hop heads subreddit. And that one's like even worse because it's just, it's not, it's not, you know, explicitly.

It's a black person thing. It's just if you like hip hop, but like it's a lot of hip hop talk in there, you know, and that type of thing. And slang and shit. And it gets brought up in there, too, about how, how they, they know there's so many white boys fucking around in there. But one time years ago, this, like, prominent poster on there who typed out everything in, you know, like internet ebonics or whatever. He's like, uh, this year, right. Let me take it. Like, by spelling it all out.

He got, like, exposed. They found, like, pictures of him. And he looked like McLevin or whatever. He was like a 19 year old could not have been wider white kid. And they, like, put this. whole thing to get with a picture of him and like all of his like blackest comments or post that he'd ever made did he drop the N-word so goddamn hilarious that's that's the question isn't it if he did imagine that's how he got caught yeah they were like you know this didn't

ever said the N-word yeah he's why either you don't say it or you say it too much that's how you know right right yeah it's either that or he leads and closes every sentence with it like it's right an exclamation point yeah god that's hilarious dude yeah yeah We ruin everything, but... Well, my post was sitting for whoever was in there. That's the other reason I know it's white people. It's because it got upvoted a lot. People were giving me...

It's the first time I've ever gotten... What was it called? People give you stuff on Reddit? Awards. Yeah. They've got ready awards and stuff. Awards. Yeah. You know, people would be paying for them.

I was saying to Andy, the better thing that would hit for me is, what if Ray McKinnon is the most beloved white director in Black America? That would be awesome. I mean, that would be great. Probably Quentin Tarantino, I think. Sure. I would say. What if it was Ray McKinnett?

That would hit real hard, yeah. Yeah, I'm trying to think if I used to, I get on Xbox Live. And, I mean, y'all know that I like to do just voices, right? Other accents and shit. I used to get on Xbox Live and do those, but I would switch it up. Like, sometimes I'd play a game and I'd pretend to be British or Polish or Russian or whatever. But this was 2006. Yeah.

So also, sometimes just the character I chose to be, you know, happen to be a Chola. or a bruh or whatever, like one of those things, or a Jamaican, you know, something you ain't supposed to do. And maybe I've been called to duty. Yeah, I was kind of like that. And like people like, and people, it was sometimes,

you know, sometimes I, people clearly couldn't tell and it was like hitting for them because I thought I was some like fucking villager from outside Warsaw or something when I'm doing that voice. But then other times people would be like, all right, white boy fucking. That's clearly, you know.

And that does, Didn't that hurt your feelings? Of course, but it was, but more than a like performance type, do you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah,

yeah. You were like, man, I thought I was selling it. I thought I was selling it. Yes. Yeah, exactly.

Not because of like, because that really is why I was doing it. Did I ever do what? Gay. Just a gay guy. No, I actually don't think I did do gay back then, you know.

Right. Now you would. Sure, but no, but maybe I'm saying maybe that. We've talked about this before. Maybe I came around on this show, but you know the like it's like man-all gay boys both a mammall but also definitely like a

southern gay man but it's very specific it's not just your standard like gay accent course that's why it hits it's a niche thing right but it's like but yeah I may have done that because that's voice is always hit for me yeah yeah it's one of the best voices ever I find myself just randomly doing it but it's funny because like even sometimes I can't tell I was like were you being a ma-maw there or a southern gay. Right. Which,

because oftentimes the phrases are the same too. Right, yeah. Well, that's how you know it's all right. You know, I think my butt and lick it, you know, like that's,

my mom and mom's always saying that. Yeah. Dude. It's funny. They probably, dude. It's one of those things like, you know,

mammaus got their butts buttered and stuff all the time. Mammals was horrors, dude, a lot of them. They fucking had nine, 10 kids and shit. Yeah, it was getting bored out.

Yeah, my mom was a horror and her mom was an even bigger horror. Dude, They was... She was the town whore. She was like... And horror's not the proper nomenclature, because I don't think she got paid for it.

Right. My mom had six siblings, and she's like full-blooded with one of them, and her mom had never been married. Yeah. She used to, like, come out and greet them after school with her top off because she wanted the high school boys to see her naked.

Good Lord. Hell yeah. She's stuff that hits. Dindane. That is a horror, my mom. Let me just... I, you know, I check my phone. Like, I got a text and I was like, oh, it might be about a thing that I need to respond to.

It's not, but I'm so glad this happened on the podcast. Let me read you this, I guess, viral something. It says with a star, talking to the sharks at Shark Tank. Okay, it's called Kratum. It's not pills. It's dirt. And you can buy it at the vape store. And you take three, and that's an Adderall.

But if you take 15, pause for dramatic effect. That's a perky, brothers and sisters. Mark Cuban, what does it taste like? me dog ashes I saw that other because I loved it I was like oh they call it dirt too buddy we I think we have more hidden

I'm not saying we didn't take it from black people but we made white people start saying it I agree couldn't agree more because it dude there was when we first started saying that shit people were like what are y'all even fucking talking about the first time I heard slaps it came from Jake James and I thought he was making fun of me for saying hits

me too no yeah we we are the black people of white people I'll say that. I mean, calling Kratum dirt. I don't know. I never, I've always thought, like from the time, it just happened almost as soon as I even started fucking with it, there's been like calling it.

And I've just always thought like, that is the perfect. I'm not surprised. It's dirt. I would be more surprised if there was a more common, like, slang term for it, for anybody other than that, because it's just literally the perfect. Like if marijuana is weed,

cradum is dirt. It's the best. It just makes the most sense as the slang euphemism for that particular drug. Heroin looks more like dirt because it's brown and has that similar consistency. Yeah, but you've got to put that. Well, you don't have to, but they like turn it

into, you know. And then they call it tar and then put it in a needle and all that. Horse. I never tarred it. Whenever I did it, I just snorted the dirt and it very much looked like the dirt. I bet you was tarred as hell. That's it. Up.

I was tired up. Yeah. Did it twice. I was retarded. You know what I mean? I do what you mean. feathers he was so tarred oh way I have a picture of him probably on heroin in full feather regalia

don't do heroin everybody unless you really need to go to bed but powders like that that you snortable that you do snort or whatever they ain't as dirt like as dirt but yeah snort and grade him I feel like I'd be like it was dirt you couldn't

you couldn't I don't think snort crate like the consistency of it right yeah dust it off it's just like that other stuff is like is powder of some kind but but fucking cratum is dirt you know

it is dirt and it tastes like dirt it tastes like dirt it's got the consistency of dirt it turned to mud have we always called it dirt what I don't remember a time we didn't call it dirt and that's from Trey yeah another name look I got some right here yeah I got some summers right here I don't have any in my office which is I didn't I normally

I'm thoroughly yeah I ain't never too far away from it I'm thoroughly addicted to dirt. Just an old dirt head. My wife is addicted to dirt. I don't think that I am. It'll grab you by the horn now. No, you're good. I don't think I have it, dude.

I think I was a huge pussy, and then my brain got fully developed, and then I started taking drugs, and it was like too late to get, you know what I mean? I'd really think that if you wait to do drugs, it's harder to get addicted. I'm pretty sure, like, somewhere in my brain from my training, as opposed to you're dealing with that. that that's like, if you don't start doing drugs until you're like 27, it's way harder to get addicted. Well, it would make sense. I wondered what you meant by later. Yeah, well, it would make sense because like a man's frontal cortex isn't even like fully developed until like, what, 24 or something like that?

And they always say like learning stuff. As a kid, you learn stuff easier because your brain is what, a sponge, right? So if you start doing those things younger, your brain. It gets wetter. Yeah, but right. But your brain, like your brain is still developing. while on that shit, so it just locks it in. You know what I mean?

And your brain goes, dis us. When Booze is the only thing I did before then at all. And Booze, it's not a problem for me, but it's the closest thing to a problem for me. It sticks with you. But I'm saying like, right, I'm just, I'm just, I guess I'm thinking out loud, I'm processing all this. The only thing I did before about age 26-ish is Booze. And Booze is the only thing when I don't do it. like somebody walks by with a beer and I'm like, I want one.

Yeah, yeah. I stop taking Kratum and Trey takes it and I don't want to take it. It's genuinely, it's a performance-enhancing drug for me. That's my steroids, dog. Yeah, you can't. I almost never do it when it's not related to comedy. That's true. If I don't feel like taking dirt at a specific moment,

no one can peer pressure me into taking dirt, but a beer is the thing most easily you could peer pressure me into. You can't even peer pressure me with a cigarette anymore. You wouldn't have to peer pressure me. me with Molly. The only thing that comes in there is like, do I have to be around my kid? Yeah, right. Right. You have it. And that's why I don't have it. That's why I don't keep it. Even with me. Meet me at the festival with it, dog. Yeah, even all that shit. Like, I love Molly and I used to love cocaine and pills and stuff. If I don't want to do something and someone's like,

but I can, I can easily be like, I don't, but today ain't the day for me. Except a beer, like a fucking beer. Because it's, because like, I guess it's like, with Molly, it's like, with Molly, it's like you're dedicating yourself to a whole eight hours or something. See, with a beer, I can convince myself like, oh, I just have one. But for me, you said, you said you were like, if I don't want to do a cratom and somebody tries to give me to do it, I'm not going to do it, but a beer, though, for me, if I actively do not want to drink a beer or drink, any kind of booze, if I actively do not want it, I'm not going to fuck with it.

Meaning, like, there's a reason I don't want it. It's because it's currently disgusting me. Yeah, I hear you. Because I had too much of it the day before or just because it's like I'm just, it just ain't, I have a very, my whole relationship with booze is altered dramatically over the years where it's like. It can usually get me. For a long time, I was definitely always like that too. Whereas like, even if I woke up that morning and hung over as fuck, by that night,

I definitely could get down with drinking again. And in fact, I'd have to try very hard not to. Not to, you know, for life period of time. It's like, this is that one thing that'll make me feel better. And if I was trying very hard not to and somebody was around who was who, and it was like, hey, you should hit. I'd be like, you're right. I should hit.

And then I just, you know, but for a long time now, as I've gotten older and stuff, it's like I can't, if I fuck around and do tie one on or whatever and it like gets to me, I'm not the next day, the thought of any kind of alcohol, it like, you know, repulses me. And if I'm feeling like that about it, I'm not going, I can't be peer pressured into doing it, you know, but I'm not going to do shit else either. I'm just going to lay on the couch, not. Yeah, I just don't get it. I don't put myself in that situation.

If I'm super fucking hung over and shit, I'm just not going to be hanging out with people. Me too. I'm never, exactly. If I'm in a position, if I'm in a situation where I really actively do not want to drink anything, I'm not going to be convinced to,

but also I'm not going to go anywhere where it's even going to come up. Right. And I'm talking about situations in which I'm forced to be in a situation. You know what I mean? Like, I tied one on and then Amber's like, oh, by the way, we've got to go do this thing.

And I'm like, oh, fuck, I forgot. Then we get there. And I'm like, okay, I'll just, I'm not drinking.

And then it's like, God damn it, I'm so miserable. I can't talk. Fuck, I'll have one glass of champagne. Then, you know,

here we go. Sure. That happens to everybody, I think. Yeah. Yeah. I can't be peer pressured because I don't have any peers.

Oh, bar. Oh, I guess I could leave now. I guess I can. I can't. I'm leaving now. Bye y'all.

Yeah, that's fine. No, I got like five more minutes. I'd feel bad. Anyway, yeah, now, you know,

drinking, drinking hits. It does. do. Well, and so does doing drugs and everything. Like, um, yeah, that's why people ruin their lives. Yeah, right. Yeah, but now, now, I mean, you guys are the ones at first, like years ago at this point alerted me to just how bad, now it's, I've been, and maybe it's a successful campaign from somewhere in this way. I'm now under the impression that if you get offered drugs at some

party somewhere or something, like, it's fentany on. It'll kill your ass. No, I'm, you know what I mean? And that's what's going to. I only do. prescription drugs. That's what's going to cross my... Well, dude, you don't have to think they got, like, like prescription drugs, like adorals and stuff like that now that if you, like, got them from something that look exactly like... No, I know.

I'm saying... And those will have fucking fentanyl. No, I'm talking about... The links these things are... I got to know who they were prescribed. Like, you know where it got filled that. That's... That's what I'm saying.

Like, I'm not... If a random drug dealer said, don't worry these are prescriptions, I'd be like, how do I know? But, like, yeah, I know the person's name on the bottle. But I didn't... But I didn't... But I don't... But I did not realize, and I mean, of course, they can do anything pretty much when it comes to,

but I didn't realize that that was a thing, though. Yeah. I always thought like pharmaceuticals were like, we're fine. No matter where you got them because of that. But I, again, years ago at this point, found out, nope, that ain't true. Them too, they press and fake, they own pills that they bring all kinds of wacky shit. Everything. It's just, you know, can't nothing ever just keep it.

Because when they always just have to stop hitting eventually. We'll do because when they schedule one, all the opiates, which like I understand, but when they schedule one to all the opiates, now it's literally easier to make your own pills than it is to just get them. Like, used to, it was just like you just go get them. And let's talk about why fentanyl's in the stuff anyway. It's because people are making it

and then cross-contaminating things. Right. So in other words, there's a good market for just selling on purpose this thing that's killing everybody. Right. So imagine you're so addicted to fint that you're buying homemade fint. Oh, my God, bro. Yeah.

Now, it's not a good world. And I hope I haven't been accidentally glorifying it by trying to hit. But it's not a good world because like it's, you know, when like between Fent and like heroin being back and shit, like it's brutal out there. I mean, and that's why we hit for taking cratom all the time. Couldn't agree more. It's better. It's why all the kids. All the kids need to be taking Craven.

Taking cratom, smoking weed. It'll keep you away from the Fent and the hair run. Mushrooms. I'm not out here sucking no dick or nothing for, well, not because of cratim. just, you know, because I'm a huge day. That's fine. But. Yeah.

And if you want to feel like you're on heroin, take a, like a fuck tonne of cratum and you'll get really nauseous, just like you would on heroin. Which is what happens on. You can be able to move for an hour. But there's been no case of a cratum overdose killing somebody.

There's been cases of a cratum, quote unquote, overdose making somebody debilitated. And you shouldn't do that. Been there. But it lasts like an hour. Yeah. Let me ask you all this about credit because,

you know, we've sold Crater. before over the years on this show and people have gotten mad about it. It's like, oh, you guys, it's your fucking drug dealers. They'll be like, I've known people that have gotten strung out on that, and it's like, I agree. I feel like, I know you can read stories about that online, but I'm always like, you ain't actually known so about it. Because my whole thing is like, again, as I've been taking credit them regularly for, I mean, like 10 years now.

And I've been going to the doctor, getting tests running all that. And I'm fine physically and health, health-wise, I'm totally fine. Plus, I'm not, more importantly, like I said, I'm not sucking dick or abandon my family or stealing from people that I love or anything, any drug addict type shit like that. And so it's like, does that mean that I could just do heroin if I wanted to and be fine? No, you know, I would still suck dick. Right. So that's what I'm saying. Also, dude, like, for me say, I've had two stories of people telling me about someone they knew and they're like kind of strung out or whatever you want to say, for how you're going to phrase it on Craitum.

One of them, my buddy David told me about an old friend of his he hadn't seen in a while. and then she came back in his life. David's the one of you guys remember his psychologist right before he retired diagnosed him as, and this is a quote, retarded. So you got to like, and that was a big deal because what we think happened was like he was old and confused him with another client, but David had an existential, anyway. He was telling me about this girl. He logs on with his therapist one day.

It's like a zone thing and the therapist calls him retarded and then kills himself in front of him. But anyway, David was coming by his friend. Yeah, you're going to get strung out. Some shit like that happens, yeah. David was telling me about his friend because he found that I took Cratum and I told him, man, he takes it regularly. He's like, you got to make her stop. He's like really freaking out.

He's like upset. That shit will make you retarded. And then he's telling me about his friend and how much she does and how it's ruining her life on that. But as we talk more, here's what happened. His friend was a heroin addict. Right. So she's chasing with that.

In order to keep the withdrawals away, started doing an amount that is, I would imagine, keeping her from functioning. Yes. And it's like, dude, I get that. But what you aren't processing here is like, that's a win for your friend. Yeah. She got off heroin, dude.

She could just be dying. Yeah. Yeah. And then she landed on a pony. Dude, yes, exactly. Like, you know, but no, Trey, it doesn't work the opposite. Like, you could not do some heroin. But like, yeah, man.

Dude, we just go way worse shit on this show than Cratum. Can we just say that way worse? But like, I have no doubt. I don't know. It's for a fact. I have no doubt. Probably like, but child slave made clothes or something.

We've definitely sold way worse than Crave. But dude, like, to go back to what you were saying, like, number one, like if you're someone like us who wasn't addicted to heroin

who was just taking cratom, it's purely a performance-enhancing thing. But on the reverse end of that, if you were, I've got buddies who don't take pills anymore because they take credit them. And I'm sorry, but that's better.

That's better because they're not, they're gotten way more comments. Those are comments from people that, you know, that are just fans that I don't really know saying, what are you guys doing selling that shit? It fucks people up. I've got no comments from people over the years who have been like, hey,

that shit has saved my life. Like, I found out about that because of you guys or because of video you made or something like that. And it's like, that shit literally saved my life because I was a strung out pill head or whatever. And I've heard way more of those stories and those hit way harder for me, obviously. So, like,

great. And they're also true. Mushrooms comes from God, who we don't believe in. Right. Just the earth. All right. I'm leaving.

I got to go. Bye. I love you. Love you. Bye. Do Cratum. Do it. Do Cratum and steal.

Well, Trey. It's just like with these, we'd be talking about these, you know, babes and shit. It's similar to the thing where it's like, it's like, no, again, except Cray, I'm way big. These, I'm sure. We know these are bad. They just hit for us. Cratum, I don't think it's bad. I, exactly.

So I don't want to compare me because I agree with 100% with what you just said. But it's like you said, like you have friends that get off. Drew was talking about that his buddies. friend who got off heroin it was on Cratum and now that don't hit for that guy and Drew was like, oh yeah, but that's still a win though. Yeah. That is how I am with these and like just regular cigarettes. Of course.

You know what I mean? Where it's like this don't, I know this don't hit, but it's still a shit out of fucking cowboy killers or whatever. Like so. Yeah. We just got to now quit these to yeah. You know, I'm only 10, you know, 7, 8, 9 to 10 years into saying I was going to do that.

Me too. And with cigarettes, that's, well, you know, I fucking, I smoke cigarettes for about that long before I quit. So, like, I'm due. Yeah, about that time. And you can move on to Zens, right? In what you're called. I think that's the next move for sure.

And those, like, Zen, like, I genuinely like. I've been thinking about it already. Yeah, right. Is it even bad? Right. Well, that's, that I don't know, because it's like, all it is is nicotine and you're not breathing it. So, like, kind of, like, I don't know.

I have been having these exact same thoughts. Yeah. I was like, because I've been thinking about the vapor and stuff. It's like, dude, I really. really do need to quit. And I was like, what you just said about Zan, I was like, I made hell, they probably are fine. That's not even bad. Like, I mean, again, I don't know, but I, but using all the logic I have, which is all the logic I care to use, you know, I don't think they are. I think it's fine. It's just nicotine, like, the nicotine has never been the problem.

You know what I mean? Like, that's, that's genuinely true. Like, that's lit, like, that's true. Like, with the cigarettes, like, it's not the nicotine that's fucking you up. It's the breathing all the shit into your lungs. Yes. You know. And with these, it's like, well, they don't have the carpet glue, and I'm sure, but you're still breathing something into your lungs. Like, but with Zen, it's just nicotine going into your mouth.

I look forward to hearing precisely how wrong we are about all that. Dude. And I never hits from people whenever we go down this road of like, you know, drugs hit. Everybody weren't doing stuff. Yeah. Like quit lying. Like quit lying, everybody. I mean, I'm sorry about your cousin.

You know what? Yeah. I mean, I get it. We've all, listen, I'll be the first one to tell you, bro, and I've cried about this shit. I've written about it. I've written about it a lot. You know, I, like, I've been a pallbearer too many times about drugs and shit like that. So obviously some people can't do.

But what I'm suggesting to do is the coffee of drugs, the crate of them. It is the coffee of drugs. of drugs. And not of them... Coffee is the coffee of drugs. But I agree. I compare to coffee all the time. And none of them bears that I've pauled have been because of weed or mushrooms or any

shit like that. So I'm, what I'm saying is choose better fucking drugs. Drugs hit, but not all drugs are the same. All I'm saying. Yeah. I believe that all the, Drew didn't say coffee because he don't even consider coffee a drug, I'm assuming. But it's like...

Drew can't be addicted because any amount over a tiny bit will kill him. Make him his heart. blow but like but i think i do like all that that hippie shit about stuff that just grows or whatever coffee weed crate them mushrooms and now one of those is hair i wouldn't i wouldn't i wouldn't fuck with for fucking five thousand dollars right now but that being weed i mean right even though it's like the safest one my brain just can't yeah physiologically i don't think any of those as long as you don't do some like full-blown jessie spano type shit or whatever, you know, like,

I don't think any of those are going to fuck you up all that bad really. Well, I mean, I'm sure with mushroom, you have to be, you have to watch what you. Well, the thing about mushrooms is you can't take them repeatedly right because they stop working or something. I'm never trying to do that, but not even that, but my point is like, the mushroom itself will not hurt you, but if you take a shit ton, you might hurt yourself. You know what I mean?

Like, you, you, like, you could be so out of the fucking, out of your gourd that you walk off of a cliff or you think someone is an alien and you shoot them like you could harm yourself but it won't be because of an overdose or something. And I mean, weed, you could make this, I could make the same argument about weed like you freak out on weed or what like you can on anything you could harm yourself. It's, I'm talking about like you do these things and you go to the doctor and he checks your vitals. There will probably not be no change.

You'll be fine. Yeah. That's all I mean. It's like it's better than fucking OD in on fentanyl. Take it for me and show. Just do those. drugs. Yes.
