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

Starting point is 00:03:19 Next step makes some people upset, but they got three big old dick that you can So indeed we do Here we are everybody Well it's just the two of us Just me and show It's sort of a POA edition Of well read this week if you will Matter of fact
Starting point is 00:03:40 I think he's going to be this way For a little while Because Drew's basically taking the month off To run naked through the streets In New Orleans and everything Which he told us about He said six weeks My name is more than that
Starting point is 00:03:50 I don't know what the fuck he's doing But he may never come back We wish him well Not just this podcast but to the world in general Yeah But he's down there doing Marty growl stuff I reckon he sent a video last night.
Starting point is 00:04:01 He took a parade and there was a guy on one of the parade floats dressed as a Roman soldier doing, you know. The Roman salute. An Elon Muskie type move. He did, yeah. Yes, I was going to bring that up. It's like, so, you know, he did what, look literally just like what Elon was doing to the chest and then straight out, right, you all know the move I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:04:22 And I was thinking it's like, some people say it's like, that's not a, listen. That's not a Nazi thing. That's a Roman thing. but it's like but if it looks like it yeah do it and it but it's also like
Starting point is 00:04:34 this is even even that does that hit I mean I know that they don't have the PR I know that people think the Romans are rad but it's like well yeah even if you're doing a Roman thing what are you trying to represent by doing that do you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:04:46 like what are you trying to get across like aqueducts really hit for you road really hit for you or it's just like in slavery an empire teary right but it's also just like all the people who are just like
Starting point is 00:04:58 well you know the swat And Osterica actually was, it meant yoga in India. It's like, okay, but you know what people think when they see it and you're comfortable them thinking that that hits for you because that's what they're going to think, you know, so just don't do it. It's like, dude, my dad, who's a goddamn Republican, like, was against, like, the rebel, like, you know, when they got rid of the rebel fight, he was like, good. And all his buddies were like, yeah, but you know that it doesn't really. And my dad's like, it doesn't matter what you, all this. He's like, when a black person or when anybody sees it, this is what they think. So when you fly it, you're comfortable with the general narrative being that you support that.
Starting point is 00:05:37 And that's stupid. He's like, just get, just let it go. Like there's no reason. And that's the same thing with the fucking, it looks like a how Hitler. Yeah, that's exactly the, you know, what I had to land on with the Confederate flag and my youth or whatever. Because growing up in fucking Clay County, I mean, I told you, I said on the podcast, whenever I went. went back to like clean out the house that I grew up in and Salina that we were going to that we then later sold I found a truly comical amount of Confederate flag things. My favorite of which I think was a
Starting point is 00:06:08 little a little like county fair picture in a cardboard frame of a Confederate flag background and the foreground was an alien in a Confederate soldier uniform smoking a cigarette, which is like what Is that even supposed to be other than just like a couple things that are kick ass? You know, for trailer people. But, you know, and it sure did work on me. You know, I sure did love it. But I, because I also. I think you have to get rid of it with an elder one, because I'm pretty sure that's one of DJ's horrockses.
Starting point is 00:06:46 I know. I see, I definitely sent it to DJ immediately because he's got, yeah, we used to always say. He was like a Confederate alien, but, uh, but I. And I also, because I, because, you know, when I was a kid, I thought I was Goodwill hunting and I'm smarter and everybody else and all this stuff. Like, I was pretty argumentative for a long time about, because I had no frame of reference to realizing just how different and insane my hometown and my background and all this shit was. It's all I'd ever known. Yeah, likewise. So I was always just like, it's like, no, man.
Starting point is 00:07:19 And that, because I get my dad, you know, he loved, my dad fucked the Confederate flag and he loved Leonard Skinner. And they fucked with a Confederate flag and all this stuff. And it's like, it don't, that ain't what it's about, y'all. Like, I was like, sure, some people might, you, but, you know, it's just, it's just, you know, just hits. It's just a Southern Pride. It's just a Skinnered thing, whatever. It's like, it's misunderstood. And I was argumentative about that, but I don't think I was even out of my teens yet before I came to the realization.
Starting point is 00:07:44 You were just saying that your dad, you know, a spouse where it's like, at a certain point, you realize, like, oh, that all that's kind of irrelevant. But, like, the fact that my dad is genuinely not racist and fucked with it or whatever, doesn't really mean anything or change anything in terms of what people are going to say. Right. It's like, that is true. But also, if you have it, people are going to think a certain way about you and I don't do you want them to think that about me? Right.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Yeah. It's just like the fucking Roman salute. It's like, is it worth dying on a hill of like, I'm going to do it because it technically doesn't mean that even though to everybody that sees you do it, they just think you like Hitler. Right. Yeah. And I was going to say it has to be. you have to be totally okay with people thinking that about you,
Starting point is 00:08:30 which means that you're on board with, you know, what they think you are anyway. Yeah. If you say you're not. But like, I don't know, some people really are just so stupid and contrarian and that type of thing where it's just like that I could see them telling themselves.
Starting point is 00:08:46 It's like, this doesn't mean I'm a Nazi. Really, you're the Nazi for even suggesting this means that I'm not. And like truly believing that in digging your heels in even further. It hits for them so hard that are like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:59 It hits for them so hard that if you call them a Nazi, they can give you this history lesson on that it's actually the Roman, you know, it will actually, it will actually pay. It's kind of like,
Starting point is 00:09:09 don't get me wrong, I know that if you go by everything he said, it seems like you might, but like, I don't actually think that Kanye fucks with Hitler and is like, likes all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:09:19 I think he's just the ultimate contrarian and he knows you're not supposed to. And a lunatic. And a lunatic. Like, But Sonia, especially, it's like, bro, I mean, he's never grown out of that, you know. Well, he's, but I'm saying he is a full-blown crazy person. Yes, he needs help.
Starting point is 00:09:34 That doesn't excuse any of what he does. I'm just saying, like, I just feel like it's undeniable with him. So it's like anything he does, it's like, you know, even trying to make sense of it is, is folly, I think. I feel bad for true crazy people, especially with me having a mental illness, but I kind of stop feeling bad for you when you have access to. to all the help in the world you could get and you just don't take it. You know what I mean? Like I don't like, Steve Jobs, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:10:03 I'm like, dude, cancer sucks. And I'm not saying it wouldn't have got you anyways. But if you're trying to cure it with apples, that's what's going to happen, motherfucker, you know? Yeah. You know. But any who's it. Did you hear what they did in, in St. August in Florida this week? No.
Starting point is 00:10:20 I was just in, I was in Tampa. Yeah. Tampa and Fort Lauderdale this past weekend, but I didn't hear any scuttle bud about the going zone in St. Augustine, I don't think. Yeah, my friend Rebel was down there, and she told me about this thing, and I was like, oh, that's cool. And then I actually just saw it on the news. They had the, uh, the, the Florida man games in St. Augustine.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Great idea. Absolutely. And one of the, and she watched this whole thing. And she said it was fun. Like on TV? Like they? No, no. I don't.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Well, I don't. No, she was there. Like she was there. she was at like a bike week or something and then she just like went up to St. Augustine and was doing some sort of wrestling thing and they were like hey the Florida man games are here and she's like oh fuck I'll go see it
Starting point is 00:11:02 so a lot of it sounded like the Scottish Highlander shit where it's like tests of strength and shit like that but one of the events was evading arrest and they had actual like off duty cops that you know they came down there in their police shit
Starting point is 00:11:19 and you had to these Florida men that were competing there was like a starting line and they had to go take the hub caps off of these cars while cops were chasing them and like try to get away and shit or the cops would like tackle and beat the shit out of them or whatever and um so that's what's in it for the cops i was wondering they're like listen if you catch them you get to beat the shit out of them in front of everybody and they're like you know i was gonna be doing it on saturday anyway so yeah i'd as well head down also i just guess that that that a massive and obvious but still massive variable in that is the cop that in question because like somebody's cop because like i just there was a video just a few days ago that katy sent me of a in chattanooga your stomping grounds by the side of the interstate there was a ass naked middle-aged woman just wandering around and in the video that a you know a passerby captured cops show up and they don't seem to be
Starting point is 00:12:20 particularly old or fat or nothing. They're just like regular sort of dumpy Chattanooga cops or whatnot. But they show up and they start chasing this middle-aged, clearly at least somewhat unwell woman. Or the only one doing good, you know? Yeah. And just failed miserably at it for much longer than it should have taken. One of them literally did the like arms flailing legs flying thing as he face
Starting point is 00:12:44 planted in the ground on the side of the side of the road. You could hear Benny Hill music playing in your head. as she was evading these cops. So I'm saying if those two guys, those two cops in particular were the pursuers and the Florida man games, you're not going to get much out of that, I don't think. It's going to be heavily favored the Florida men.
Starting point is 00:13:05 But if you got some like, you know, some ex-marine type hard ass motherfuckers who really got their dicks hard for beating somebody's ass in public, then, you know, that'll make it more interesting. I think you're failing to realize, Trey, that what really probably happened here is that those Chattanooga cops were just scared of being me too. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:13:24 Because you can't even give a woman a compliment anymore. I don't think that these guys are going to go down there and risk their career touching an ass-necked woman knowing that people are filming it. Are you kidding me, Traneck? Have a little bit more respect for our goddamn law enforcers. She was white, so they couldn't just shoot her. Of course. Fortunately, that would have simplified things.
Starting point is 00:13:43 But yeah, you're right. Also, my main question, I wonder. She said these cops, by the way, we're not that in shape because that's the first. question I asked. Yeah. I'd mention. What's the second question you asked is that because I assume not only the black, yes.
Starting point is 00:13:56 That's, yeah, that was my second. I was wondering not only, I assume not only do they not drug test, but that, you know, meth use is encouraged at the Florida. Sure. I would think. I would think. Yeah. You make them all do meth before the game starts.
Starting point is 00:14:09 You don't have to make them, you know. Right. You, you offer them all. Yeah. Of course. Set out the meth plate in the backstate in the green room of the Florida Man games and let nature take its course. but yeah it does feel like because you know at least some of them are going to be on meth and that's an unfair advantage if they're not all on it and it's right and it's the florida man game so it's like you really need them all to be on meth for maximum florida manness but any i mean anyway go on well i mean what else well that's you know about it what else that's i mean that's essentially that's essentially it but it posed more questions than i had which is like um number one like when she's telling me about this like my immediate reaction is like that sounds fun
Starting point is 00:14:50 fuck. You know what I mean? Yeah. I remember and I was like, I asked her, I was like, are that, were the cops in shape? She's like, eh, not all of them. And then, of course, we went into the whole thing of like, it ain't it weird that like, in order to become a cop, you've got to be in crazy shape. But like, literally, once you get hired, you can immediately gain 300 pounds and it's totally fine. And I had mentioned to her that like, you know, there was one of my bits that I did when I was in Canada was like everything, Larry Miller used to have a bit that's like, when you go to Canada, it's like, it's like you're dreaming about America and everything's just a little bit off.
Starting point is 00:15:24 And I was like, yeah, I was like in Canada, you can start to feel like you're not in a different country until you see a bunch of in-shaped cops. And that's how I knew. Like, oh, okay, we're not in this country anymore. But, uh, fuck, what was it going to say? Oh, yeah. So, like, morally, like, I'm sitting there listening to her say all this. And I'm like, this is so, this sounds like fun.
Starting point is 00:15:45 And I was like, I got some buddies that not only would they get all four of them fucking hubcaps, they would strip every single goddamn piece of copper out of everything around them before this fucking cop ever called him. Like, I know it. But then I was like, I could totally, I can totally see the argument probably happening in our YouTube comments right now about how this is a bad look. You know what I mean? Like, for who? For what? For Florida? No, no, no. I mean like, like, fuck these, you know, fuck the cops. Like, we shouldn't be exploiting the fact that cops are like chasing people down and these white people get to play cop, evade the cops fantasy camp when like some people have to live that actual reality just by existing. You know what I'm saying? Like, do you feel, I don't personally
Starting point is 00:16:28 feel that way, but I get it. I do get it, but also, I mean, you know, I mean, legitimate Florida, man are also near the top of, of the police's, you know, prey list. I do feel like, they definitely, again, they don't get shot as much and all that, but like, you know, you know, know, they're definitely not on good terms or nothing. So, uh, but yeah, I hear what you say, but I just think, you know, this is what I, this is what I've always loved about Florida. It's always hit for me about Florida is that like they, they, who they are. They are at unabashedly who that Florida is always going to keep it hunted on the Florida
Starting point is 00:17:07 like, like, Florida is just very Florida E. Yeah. And fuck if you like it or not. And they like fully embrace that about themselves. And it's the most southern thing about them. It's just always, it's always hit for me. me. I'm trying to find some more information about this. So I found, let's see here, the, these, I do have the, these are the teams that competed. So I guess you compete in teams.
Starting point is 00:17:31 And I have a list of the events. I'm trying to find more, because this is on St. Augustine's website. So this is not the official, this is just, by the way, St. Augustine does not seem like the town to have these games in. Like, this sounds more like a Daytona or a Tampa. And I'm not ECB. Yeah, and I'm not saying that St. Augustine is like the most pristine place, but like, you know, that's where the World Golf Hall of Fame is. It's got a nice restaurant scene. It's sort of, it's semi-classy. You know, it's St. Augustine. No, I agree. I wouldn't have put them near the top of the list in terms of, you know, trashy Florida NIST. I've only ever been there once briefly, and I did a show there, and it was fun and everything. I love it. I always thought St. Augustine was like, you know, it's literally the oldest town in this country. So there's like, There's some history and class and shit there as opposed to, you know, fucking Jacksonville. I mean, they're not putting the world, they're not putting the World Golf Hall of Fame in Panama City Beach. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:30 Like there's a reason it's in St. Augustine. So out of Gainesville, we had the ball busters, which was the first ever all-female team to compete at the games. That's a great name then. Women can be Florida men too. Hanky Spanky out of St. Augustine, the return in champs from 2024. This is the second annual, by the way, so they had them in 2024. And I guess Hanky Spanky won the inaugural edition of the Florida Man Games. Next up, out of Inverness, and I guess there's an Inverness in Florida, I'm assuming,
Starting point is 00:19:02 and not the one we went to in Scotland. That'd be wild if some Scots came over from. I mean, like I said, it's like the high hillbilly country and fucking decide to throw in. But anyway, the team from Inverness, is called the Cooter Commandos. No, that's us. That's pretty sweet. I know, yeah, it's got to be.
Starting point is 00:19:20 That's a legit Florida stuff there. Then next up from Jacksonville, the storm surge, from Fort Myers, the Screaming Eagles, from St. Augustine Beach, capital A-M-P amphetamines. So, leaning into the meth angle, as you do. Next up, Pensacola. is on flawed man. Flawed man. Flawman.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Yeah. I get maybe this is, maybe this is the, uh, the Hispanic contingent here from Alachua County. El Diablo and the firecrackers. Doesn't that mean the fire and the firecrackers? No, Diablo is the devil.
Starting point is 00:20:03 That's the devil. I think. Yeah, the devil and the firecrackers. I mean, it's pretty sweet. And then from DeLand, Florida, the red-eyed gator huggers.
Starting point is 00:20:13 So those are the teams there. And then let's say it says I'm looking at the actual website now. The defendant champs last year, hanky spanky. Then it says these are hosts and experts in all things Florida man. So one of the host is Florida comedian. Oh, M.G. It's Wix. That's a white guy. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:36 I don't know how you, yeah. Funnily enough, no, not a white guy, just comedian. Comedian, OMG, it's Wix. Yeah, I don't know how you guess that. But,
Starting point is 00:20:47 but yeah, let's see. And then the other one is, uh, co-host Kevin Flynn says Kevin Flynn has the meme world on lock. Oh my God. So,
Starting point is 00:21:01 yeah. So they got the evading arrest obstacle course. Floridians are chased by police after stealing copper pipes and catalytic converters. Yep. Find the frozen iguanian. Find the frozen iguon. and Chuck a gator through a drive-thru window to earn a victory and your freedom.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Dude, that's literally a punchline from a joke I had about Florida. I used to says like that you get to Florida and they're throwing alligators through drive-thru windows and shit. All right. God damn. Well, weaponized. She didn't even mention this shit. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Weaponized pool noodle mud duel. So. Weaponized. Well, it looks like they take a pool noodle and they really jack it. up like they turn it into like those big battle cue tips from American Gladiators. Yeah. Yeah. They take a pool noodle and I guess run
Starting point is 00:21:51 a fucking stick through the middle of a PVC pipe or something. Then they put a bunch of shit on either end and duct tape it up so it becomes like a weapon. What do you call that? That the thing I'm talking about from American Gladiators It looks like a double A baton. Yeah, I guess a baton
Starting point is 00:22:07 A baton. I'll look it up. Keep going. A battle baton, something like that. I wonder if American Gladiators came up with that. Probably. Oh, my God, dog. Next up on the list. It's a
Starting point is 00:22:20 pugil stick. A pugil stick. Pugel stick. Yeah, I assume that has something to do with boxing. Like pugilist. Yeah. I don't know. Next one's a pork eating competition, like a pite in competition, but they have to eat,
Starting point is 00:22:36 they have to eat a pork in the fastest time. And it's called the Eat the But Challenge. because we got to go it's shredded pork butt you see yeah you get it uh next up florida sumo cage match and beer chug so something for the fat and mine and two things it wants it says uh it looks like they get in a cage with a uh like a pool floaty wrapped around them and try to and holding a picture of beer at the same time. And then they try to.
Starting point is 00:23:15 You can't spill it. You can't spill it or get knocked down. So you try to knock your opponent down or make them spill their beer. It says the loser can still put points on the board by chugging their opponent's remaining beer. So just knock them out and steal their picture. Then we got hurricane prep, hurricane party, hurricane party prep, grocery aisle brawl. So it's like that. was that all that that game show from the 90s like a shopping cart that that ain't what it was called shopping spree shopping spree yeah something like that we have to run the run through a grocery store filling up your cart as fast as they're doing that but with a hurricane prep item that's something too is how supermarket sweep
Starting point is 00:23:59 supermarket sweep, that's right. It's the other thing that hits to me about Florida is how cavalier they are about the natural disasters that routinely drown their statesmen and everything. I really do respect it. They don't give a fuck. I do, too. I actually wrote this to talk to you about later, I put Miami Hurricanes here because it like occurs to me. I'm like, there's people that root for that team whose family members have died in hurricanes.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? Like, imagine the New York 9-11s coming to town. You know what I mean? Well, and this, this, this, event here, the concept of this is like they're getting the supplies to have a hurricane party as opposed to, you know,
Starting point is 00:24:35 evacuating and leaving. And it's like, yeah, we might all get swept away at said party, but at least we'll die the way we lived. Yeah. Drunkenness. Salty water. Next up. Human beer pong. That she brought that one up, but I couldn't get her to explain to me. I think
Starting point is 00:24:53 they're in one of those balls, those things. Yeah. I think. It says Floridians always take things way too far. This is a combative Florida-sized beer pong style challenge. The stakes are high, but maybe not as high as our Floridians. Again, so there's no links or anything I can click on. I have a written description. There's one picture. So I'm doing the best I can to ascertain what these are. Yes, they're in, they're in those big, what do you call those? Those big spheres, you put yourself in, those like, bubble boys. The bubbles where you can like run into each other.
Starting point is 00:25:28 other and roll down hills and all that type of shit. There's things kind of good. And there's like big inflatable kitty pools filled with beer on a field. So one of your team like throws you. You got to like get past your opponent and get into one of their beer pools. Yeah. Yeah. I'm assuming.
Starting point is 00:25:50 But. It's the death toll for this game. Yeah. Not high enough. I'm assuming. Right. For them. The more, you know, it would hit for them, I think.
Starting point is 00:25:58 If people died, yeah, that'd be a badge of honor. Right. Yeah, bigger PR. They'd have a hell of a funeral the next year, you know, in the memoriam section and stuff that people get tattoos, airbrushed t-shirts, decals, you know. So, yeah. I wonder how many gallons of paint a year are used just on in-memorium airbrush t-shirts?
Starting point is 00:26:24 Yeah, it's a good question. Fair amount, especially in Florida. Also, who you think does that mean? more black people or rednecks because that's another way in which we overlap it is very much that's an overlapping area i don't know dude that i i i i i i can tell you that one in my opinion black people in my opinion black people have the like family reunion shirt they're clear winners in that one you know what i mean but as far as like the in memoriam airbrush t-shirt or bump bumper sticker or like car decal redneck i mean now granted i'm on this is an annexed i mean now granted i'm on this is
Starting point is 00:26:58 doodle because I live in a redneck place, so I see them with rednecks more. I say also, if you define it as just airbrushed t-shirts of any kind, I think it's clearly rednecks. Yeah, yeah. Or the vector, I think. Because it's not just, you know, dude, you go to like Myrtle Beach or any of these places. They got all kinds of stores. Well, hell, I got three in my closet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:19 Or it's like they don't have to be in. M. Memorial is a popular choice. I mean, mine is an in memoriam. Right. But there's also, you know, like two dollars. Dolphins hugging in front of a rainbow. Yeah. It's like an anniversary shirt or like two, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:34 teenage white trash girls' best friend shirt or that type of thing. You get them to commemorate the trip. That's true. You know, you get like your initials and some dolphins and shit. And it's like, you know, Myrtle Beach, spring break, 2025 type thing. I wonder how that economy, like, if they're making the same amount of those as they used to or if it's gone down, you know, probably down because of. Etsy, but well, like individual shops may be down, but overall, maybe there's more being made.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Fuck, I don't know. I don't know. I would like to investigate. Never goes out of style. That's the thing is like they're timeless. Mm-hmm. The final challenge, it says Florida woman bonus challenge. All it says is some of the best Florida man headlines are actually Florida woman stories.
Starting point is 00:28:21 We'll definitely leave you with something to talk about after this one. So I don't know if that's like a like a story thing where they find that. the best like Florida woman, you know, like I don't know, like get on stage and tell this the wildest Florida woman shit I've ever done. They pick a winner or something. I don't know. I'm purely guessing. But they also have set up at the Florida main games.
Starting point is 00:28:42 If you're not a contestant, you don't have to just spectate. They also offer some other amenities. They have the Ninja Nation obstacle course. Like wipeout? Yeah, like a small mobile version, which that was a great idea. Whoever came up with that, load that up. a truck and take it around all the trashiest parts of the country is pretty rad. And then they also, you can ride a mechanical gator, which I assume they've just repurposed
Starting point is 00:29:11 a mechanical bull, right? They just put a gator head on a mechanical bull, but it's still still pretty, pretty sweet. We of course have axe throwing. You ever done a mechanical bowl? Yeah, yes, I have in Nashville. And it's like, you realize when you're, you're, Like, that don't hit for nobody. Well, it ain't even that part.
Starting point is 00:29:33 It's just that no one wants that to happen. All those bars that have those set up in there. Yeah. It's for drunk chicks to get on it. Yeah. And, you know, they're drunk. So when you're like a fucking 23-year-old frat bro or the fucking, you know, chin strap,
Starting point is 00:29:47 you're like, oh, fuck, leave me a shot at that thing. Like, everyone involved is like, God damn it. So they crank it up real fast and throw you ass off there as quick as they possibly can, at least in my experience. I can't believe this show never got made, but one of my proudest moments in the industry is that I got, me and Mark got game show network. We made them pay for a mechanical bull to put in a studio just so we could do a run-through of our pitch of a game show. And some bitch threw me off.
Starting point is 00:30:16 You know, I had to sign a paper and everything. But they're, yeah, they're wild. And it's harder than you'd think. No, it definitely is harder than you think, especially if you're hammered fucking drunk. Yeah. Let's see. A couple of the things they have. I said they have ax throwing there for,
Starting point is 00:30:30 and they also have a Ocala knocker ball, knocker ball. That sounds like itchero Suzuki's cousin. Ocala knocker ball. It's, I think it's just soccer, but everybody who's playing the soccer game is in one of those bubble, bubble things.
Starting point is 00:30:49 So like rocket league with people, like you know what I mean? Like you're the vehicle. And then, and then they got a jousting pool, a big inflatable kitty pool where they give you those pugil sticks, those jerry-rigged pugil sticks, and I think you just try to whip each other's ass and see who survives.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Right. Let's say they got a wrestling event here. Or you know, see if you're familiar with it, it says Hatchet Pro Wrestling Presents. I know, yeah, that's why Rebel, that's who she was there. She was with those people, yeah, yeah. That show was called State of Emergency is the name of the show they did. I didn't, it's funny because she,
Starting point is 00:31:27 She didn't meet. I don't know if she was wrestling or whatever, but I had said something like, I said, fuck, we need to do an event there next year. I said, surely there's a wrestling company around her.
Starting point is 00:31:37 She said, yeah, Hatchet Pro Wrestling runs out of there, but she didn't mention that they were doing shit. Yeah, well, they don't just have Hatchet Pro Wrestling. They also have,
Starting point is 00:31:46 you guessed it, midget wrestling. Knew it. Annual Florida. Yeah, of course. The Midget Wrestling Warriors reborn tour invades the Florida Man Games. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:59 I mean, this sounds like a fucking hell of a time, frankly. They got a Ripley side show act, and they got Gator shows. So I mean, of course. I mean, no, I agree. It does sound. I don't know how you could go to that and not have fun. Right. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:32:13 You'd have to be, you'd have to really go out of your way to not have a good time at some fucking shit like that, in my opinion. I think, I think I could see Mark walking around with a scowl the whole time. Yeah. No, I'd hit for him. Yeah. He could find a way to make a hit just by, you know, hating on it or whatever. You know, that should be an easy thing to make hit, though. You know, some things are hard to make hit, you know, for example, a website.

They just happened three days ago, you know, but still, like, all the websites and stuff is all about, like, buying tickets and what's going to happen and everything.
Starting point is 00:35:48 I can't find anything about one or one or- They're all recovering, I'd say. Nobody's outcome or whatever. I could try to see here on YouTube here, Florida Man Games. There's no telling what. No telling what's going to come up here. I mean, it's like, it's like news. Don't hit how, you know, news pieces.
Starting point is 00:36:08 How is there not cell phone footage of people, you know? Yeah. It's blowing my mind. Well, whatever, we got to, we got to go. That sounds like a, that sounds like something that we should be sponsored to go to. one of our, you know, maybe Squarespace will send us or somebody like, well red needs to be involved in that. Maybe we should set up a show in St. Augustine next year just to go to the Florida man game. I don't know if I would want to compete.
Starting point is 00:36:33 I think I would say, yeah, put a team together. No, I blow my knees out or something. I was about to say, dude, like I'm not. Also, I know who I am. I ain't got it like that. I'm not going to front. Like I could compete with actual meth heads and, you know, cop evasion games and stuff. You take me eight, 10 years ago, put me on some gear.
Starting point is 00:36:49 Sure. Maybe. I mean, I'm not saying I'd win, but I'm saying I think I could put on a showing. But like right now, dude, no. Like, dude, my wrist is fucked up right now. Do you know why? Mm-mm. Why?
Starting point is 00:37:01 I slept like this. I slept like that. It'd be like that. It's been fucked up for like a week, you know? Yeah. And it's like, I just slept like that. Like, I mean, I don't know a few weeks ago, I like couldn't hardly walk just because I went for a jog too far and too early.
Starting point is 00:37:17 And it finally got better. But dude, I was like, during that. because also the way I am as best as I get older, like when my legs were all fucked up, and I was like, this cannot be just from taking, this is crazy, something else.
Starting point is 00:37:27 I kept thinking about, you remember old boy and fucking Tiger King who walked his legs off? Yeah. Remember that? I do. I kept thinking about that motherfucker. I was like,
Starting point is 00:37:37 I know, you can do it. You can walk your legs off. Like, what if I, you know, what if I, I thought,
Starting point is 00:37:42 I was like, he was geared out of his head. It could happen to anybody, you know. It could happen to you. Yes, 100%. It's just like go to the doctor.
Starting point is 00:37:51 It's like, unfortunately, you just, you've walked your legs off. It's like, I don't even walk that much, you know. Damn, you've just scared me. Because I do walk all the time. I walk a ton. Look, as we both alluded to, I'm pretty sure that there might be a needle involved. Another, some other aspects or elements of that particular story from Tiger King about the old boy walking his walking his legs off. But either way, that's why, I mean, that's a while.
Starting point is 00:38:18 I mean, I get, it's funny to think that's like. he he came up with that because the real answer is fucked up or something you know what I'm yeah too embarrassing and then also I just walked him off and then everybody's like oh well shit I guess he did you legs off sure did that's why I don't do that I don't my mom I'm all at her legs off that you know sugar took me too much sugar on them yeah look at stunt boy still sweet yeah it's also it's funny and I'm sure they talked about it in the documentary but like that, like working with and around tigers professionally while not having legs.
Starting point is 00:38:59 It's a good look. Everyone just assumes 100%. I know what happened there. Yeah. Walked them smooth off. You'd be wrong. That is not where I thought that was going. Maybe like maybe he did get mauled by a tiger.
Starting point is 00:39:15 And Joe Exotic's like you can't, don't you bear. Let just get out. You better come up with something. You walked them off. And it better not be stupid. All right. Well, if I say, I walk my legs off. Bingo.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Yeah. Right there. You got it. Hell. You can see that happening, right? Yeah. Way more believable than one of my tiger. No, I just keep forgetting.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Like, I have such bad ADD that I interview. Is it, did you keep in it forgetting or is it like, is it not? I mean, how, Cho interviewed Joe Exotic on the phone from prison, like a while ago now. And he keeps not putting it out and he keeps saying, like, I keep saying, like, I keep managing, I just keep forgetting. And I keep wondering, it's like, is it, is there something bad about it? No, I don't think so. I haven't watched it back since.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Like, I showed you that one clip from it because I remembered it like a month ago. And I made this clip because I was like, I'm going to make this clip and I'm going to put the thing up. I swear on God, dude. Like, people think, it's like, is your ADD really that bad? Yes. My ADD is so bad that I can continuously forget that I interviewed the Tiger King from prison. I can totally forget. Like, I just keep forgetting.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Well, now that we're sitting here talking about it having happened, like, what, what do you remember about the actual interview? Like, can you give us any kind of highlights or any impressions or any, like, I don't mean to do an impression of him. I mean, impression you've got of him and his situation, just any of that. I remember one of the things I came to him on was like he was obviously on there talking about Trump this and Trump. He's a big Trump guy or whatever. and so I pushed him on like, you know, why, like, why do you still fuck with this guy? Like, you were so, in your brain, it was like, Trump's going to get elected and he's going to pardon me. And I was like, and he very didn't do that.
Starting point is 00:41:00 And like, I was like your whole Twitter existence is talking about how Trump needs to pardon you. And I was like, how can you like that guy when he thought he was on your team and he didn't do that? And like, he just said a whole bunch of nonsense that didn't, you know, I was just like, he was just, he just kept. pushing it away and he was like well no it's not Trump was going pardon me but like there was a list you know and then they just lost the list and I think I want to be like
Starting point is 00:41:27 and I wanted to be like so he forgot about you right he completely forgot about you and he wanted to make he wanted to make it act like it was like it's not that simple of a process and I was like I don't know it kind of seems like they just go you're out you're out you're out you're out you know but like
Starting point is 00:41:43 a lot of the first part of the interview was just him talking about oh I remember remember this one thing. I was like, so you're in jail for murder for hire. Like you hired a person to kill Carol Bath. He's like, nope, that's not what I'm in jail for, which if you look it up, it's like, that's 100% what he's in jail for. But he's like, now, he's like, I'm in here on some trumped up charges for some he said, she said stuff. And I'm like, I don't think that's how the court, you know, works or whatever. Right. And then we got interrupted him. That's just him framing what you already said in the way that he presents.
Starting point is 00:42:17 the information. Exactly, right? Yeah. It's almost like he, fucking maniac. Meth head, yeah, maniac, yeah,
Starting point is 00:42:24 the whole thing. And like, and like, but you know what's really funny is like, uh, like this dude's crazy. He's not a good dude.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Uh, but when I was talking to him, like, he's got our accent, you know, and I'm used to talking to people with accents in jail because my uncle, and he just reminded me so much of my uncle that like,
Starting point is 00:42:41 there was part of me that was like, I hope this my fucker gets out. You know what I mean? Or like, I started to sort of believe because we sort of speak the same language. But I don't know, man. Like, it was just really, I don't, it was really weird.
Starting point is 00:42:54 And we had to talk in two 15 minute increments because he only gets 15 minutes at a time. And he had to go back to the yard or whatever. But like, I definitely did not leave this conversation believing anything different about the man. I can tell you that much right now. And I think he just wanted to talk. Did you talk about the, the tigers or anything? Do you know what happened? They might have covered that in the documentary.
Starting point is 00:43:17 And I just don't remember, because I don't even know if I ever watch that, that follow-up documentary, but like, yeah, I didn't. Does his tigers come up? Is he worried about his tigers? Does he know where his tigers are? Did he pass his tigers off? I'm going to have to take his bitch out custody away, I assume. Yeah, I'm, I might to put this bitch out because I don't even remember that.
Starting point is 00:43:35 I remember that we mainly, like, I tried not to ask him anything that I were new from the doc, obviously. I was mainly asking him about prison life or whatever. I was like, so what's it, you know, I remember one of them I was like, what's it like for like a dude like you who's famous being in prison and then he just went off on this tangent of just like they gave me lice you know what i mean like i got lice or something like that and uh you know you won't believe it but we and i i guarantee you this um the the total amount of words i said five percent of them he said 95 percent of them like i because i mean you know
Starting point is 00:44:09 i had we had 30 minutes so i kind of would just ask a question and then shut up and he would just and then the next thing I know it's like fuck we got two minutes left you know but I was just like you know I mean people already hear me I'm just going to let this guy talk so like I don't think we solved anything but it was fun to talk to the guy you know but I did not I need to I need to rewatch it again because I don't this was months ago dude like I no I know I feel like it might have even been a year ago or something like dude maybe it was I don't know maybe it was like all I remember is I was drunk and I saw that Joe Exotic followed me and liked one of my tweets and I just fucking message him.
Starting point is 00:44:46 I was like, can we talk? And he was like, yeah, whatever, you know, absolutely. And then we set it up
Starting point is 00:44:52 and yeah, I talked to him from prison and then just forgot like a lunatic because in my brain I was like, this is going to really drive people to the Patreon. Yeah, didn't do anything. You know what I realized?
Starting point is 00:45:03 Like I was saying, wondering what happened to his tigers. What I assume happened is, you know, they came in and rescued the tigers. But my understanding of how stuff like that works is like you got them. do what?
Starting point is 00:45:16 Well, I don't think they would do that to a tiger, but I might be wrong. But I was good. But you can't, what you can't do is just send them over to India and push them out of a truck or whatever. Because they're domestic now. Right. So you can't put them back in the wild. So what I think normally they do is, is I think there's a few different legitimate, like, sanctuaries around. One of which, like, dog mantle.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Yeah, right. But did he, did he do? was his a legitimate sanctuary or was he doing some like money making shit with it too? I'm pretty sure he was doing some nefarious stuff. You know it's fucking crazy how that documentary had us all by the balls and hell we even did a
Starting point is 00:45:54 fucking recap on the whole thing and I don't and I've got I have a notebook back here that I found the other day that's called Tiger by the Tail is when we did. I was trying to play ipso facto show runner on the thing and I have an entire
Starting point is 00:46:10 like three three subject Mead Notebook filled like the whole thing is filled with Tiger King notes I've retained nothing I got nothing like that was it singing it was five years ago which is crazy well yeah that
Starting point is 00:46:24 dude I've just on a larger note I don't remember fucking anything anymore from movie I watch so many different shows and everything I don't know I guess I'm chalking it up to that and binge watching and just fucking
Starting point is 00:46:40 attention spans and phones and every all of just getting older, all of that is combined to where like, I'll watch something and love it, but I don't, I remember like the, the headlines of what it's about or what happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:54 But it's like gone. I mean, in no time. Like I, like Severance, season to Severance is airing right now. I'm still not caught back up because I let some episodes build up first, but I also rewatch season one. And it came out three years ago, and I love that show.
Starting point is 00:47:09 And I, again, a lot of big things about it. I remember, but there's so many, so many things rewatching season one that I was like, oh, fuck, right. I forgot all about it. Yeah, well, that show is, it's designed that way. I'm like that with literally everything, though. So it's like, yeah, like, I just,
Starting point is 00:47:25 and I felt like I don't, didn't used to be. I feel like when I was a kid, when I was younger, it's like I would watch something and then I could like talk about specifics of it for like pretty much ever after that if it hit for me, I mean. And now I don't, I feel like if me and you, I feel like if me and you, not that we're going to, but if we started talking about Downton Abbey, that me and you could get into the intricate plot lines
Starting point is 00:47:48 and all this stuff or whatever, because yeah, maybe our brains were just more sponges then, and we're older now and our kids are old, or your kids are older, I have a child, like, I don't retain anything. But either way, all I was going to say is,
Starting point is 00:48:02 that's who you want to be in the tiger world, I feel like, because one thing that documentary showed to me is get you a furry tiger. some people are just tiger fucking people bro like some some people they nobody dabbles you don't dabble no right you get immersed in that shit and if you are a tiger person that's what you want to try to get into is either working at if not fully operating some kind of sanctuary yes so people send you tiger like you said you get a free tiger you get sent tigers right and you just get and you get to have them nobody's going to take your tigers away because you're not a fucking profiteering maniac. It's a sanctuary. But, you know, I'm sure that's easier said than done. You probably got to come from like a sanctuary family. You know, you probably can't just start up a tiger sanctuary. I would imagine.
Starting point is 00:48:55 Well, I don't know. I know you can start a tiger. If you can just get your hands on some tigers, you can start a tiger business. But you're right, a sanctuary. And that's like probably a different government form. It's got to be like licensed and shit. Yeah. Right. It's like, yeah, you can't just say this is a sanctuary like because a lot of people you know you'll see TikTok videos and stuff sometimes with somebody like rassling around in a lovey-dovey very cuddly way
Starting point is 00:49:19 with like a tiger or a lynx or something like that and it's always like you know how do I make this happen and always in the comments of it's like well this is from noted big cat sanctuary yeah and it's like and so you know they don't you can't
Starting point is 00:49:34 they don't sell tickets or nothing because then they wouldn't be a sanctuary that's what's fucked up But so the only way, it's similar to, I remember reading once on Reddit that if you work in a Frito-Lay factory, you can get like fresh Cheetos hot off the line, like literally hot off the line, hot fresh-baked Cheetos. And there's no other way on earth to experience that other than working at that factory. I'm sure if you know, if your golf buddies with the CEO Frito-Lay, he can hook it up. but if you're just a regular person, you can't, you can't,
Starting point is 00:50:11 you can't, you can't buy a tour or you can't imagine. get a VIP pat. I know. As soon as I heard that, I was like, I wish I'd never learned this. I'm going to live the rest of my life.
Starting point is 00:50:20 It's like Kualoo's been gone. Yes, that's what I was about to say. Yeah, it's like just knowing, no matter what, I can never even try it. That's,
Starting point is 00:50:28 I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's, that way would like, cuddle in a big, a big cat,
Starting point is 00:50:34 uh, in a sanctuary too. You can't just do it. You've got to be in the game. And that's just unfair to the rest of us, you know. But that's what got us and Joe Exotic into this whole mess in the first place. People want them to do that anyway. So this is okay.
Starting point is 00:50:47 This is the second time I've thought about Kuala this week, by the way. I thought about them because, you know, I don't know if you, you say, yeah, of course you saw. We had a whole thing about it. Steak and shake. And now there's a couple other fast food places that are doing the beef tallow, right, instead of seed oil. which like right on it's just that alone is a good thing and like should not be controversial or cra but the reason that it is is because it was r fk's idea which like you know a fucking broken clock is right twice a goddamn day you know what i mean and the reason i'm so excited about it is because like for my whole life and i know your whole life too like McDonald's fry still hit and they're still like which is crazy that they're still the they've just got such good PR like they're still the benchmark of like oh McDonald's fry even though like, dude, checkers fries bodies their ass, but like McDonald's fries. It's like, oh, some people just go there just for the fries.
Starting point is 00:51:43 And for my whole life, my mom, my dad, every other old person has been like, but y'all don't even know, though. Like, the reason that they, the reason that McDonald's still has that is because when everything used to be cooked in beef tallow, like they legitimately, again, it's night and day. Like, you think these are good. They used to be unbelievable and people would just go for them and whatever. And I've heard that and it's always pissed me on. that I've never been able to get that from McDonald's.
Starting point is 00:52:09 And now I'm like, again, to me, it's always been like Quilode. It's like it's this thing that everybody from the 80s talks about that was so magic and now I don't get it. And now it's back. But unfortunately, it's back. And all these companies can't just be like, we're doing beef tallow. They're also like online retweeting the White House. Like, we're making fries great again and like making it all gross and shitty or whatever. But like, this is like, it's to me, you know, me and Mark had a bit.
Starting point is 00:52:36 big argument about it. And I was like, because I was like undoubtedly in my opinion, the reason this is happening is because RFK for a year and a half has been talking about we need to cook shit and beef towel again, right? Not saying that he, it's like he came up with the idea that things should be healthier, but like he put it back out into the atmosphere
Starting point is 00:52:52 and now it's happening. And I just fucking, I hate that I can't celebrate it without looking like I support RFK and the Trump administration. You know what I mean? Because this does it. Right. Yeah. And his whole then, well, we ain't got to get in it.
Starting point is 00:53:08 We ain't got to re-litigate all that, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. I'm fine with just being right, sally. Yeah. Yeah. Before, when it just got announced, they were switching back to beef tallow. Mark called me a Nazi because I wanted to eat beef tallow fries, basically.
Starting point is 00:53:22 Not quite literally, but when they first announced, they were going back to beef tallow. Cho was like, well, fuck Trump, obviously, but this hits. And he was like, fuck Trump and RFK or whatever, but this hits. Yeah. And Mark's initial reaction to it was like, He's like, you ain't even got to give them credit for this type of shit. He's like, what you really think that they're dictating what these companies do? You know, he's like, no.
Starting point is 00:53:45 Right. I said, no, I don't. I said, I think they just put it back in the atmosphere. Right. You were like, no, I don't think that they did. I don't think it's a mandate from them. I'm saying, I think if they weren't on this little crusade, this wouldn't be happening. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:59 And it wasn't. And Mark was just basically like, oh, yeah, no, hell, everything's. everything's their fault, whatever. And I don't remember the other examples he gave. But then the next day, steak and shake, the company itself literally tweeted at RFK, hey,
Starting point is 00:54:16 good calling this beef tallow stuff for however they put it. You know, and I was like, look at that. Cho coming through in the clutch. What do you think about that, Mark? And of course,
Starting point is 00:54:24 he just, he was like, you're still wrong. Yeah. We're dumb. And have it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:30 That's his own personal mandate. I just don't see what we're solving here by not like, Dude, fuck them. Fuck them. Fuck them. They suck. But like acting like something that was taken away 40 years ago and never brought up again until like by anybody in that corporate structure. And then RFK is like, you know what we should do?
Starting point is 00:54:52 And it becomes popular. And everybody's saying, and then this company starts. I know they're only doing it because that's the way the wind blows. But the reason that the wind's blowing that way is because RFK, therefore, RFK is the reason that they're doing beef tallow fries. him, but this hits. This one thing hits. There's, and there's a lot of, there's so many things that are clearly the way the wind's blowing tight reactionary moves from big companies and stuff.
Starting point is 00:55:18 And the Beef Tower one, I agree, it hits. Not all of these hit, obviously, but it's all over the place right now is my point. Yeah. Right. It's like, I just saw yesterday. And of course, they would all, the companies in question would deny any of these being related, the ones I'm going to bring up. But like, so Disney Plus, like, canceled a already in progress.
Starting point is 00:55:35 Tiana series. They, um, Is that the princess from the princess and the frog? The only black Disney princess. That movie hit. Everybody liked that. Why was that woke? They also,
Starting point is 00:55:48 not only did they, I don't know what series this is for. I just know that in some series they had planned, there was going to be a transgender character in it. And they took that character out of the series and replaced them with a like, uh, churchy Christian character. Okay.
Starting point is 00:56:01 You ain't got to fucking go completely 180. Yeah. And then, you know, like the NFL took the words end racism out of the end zone and well that's because it's over they did they I know they fixed it I know yeah well they had like a lot of these that like the well the NFL one specifically is also the whole time they had that I was always kind of like oh okay what do you guys do yeah right yeah like all right we all right thanks NFL appreciate yeah you guys pointing that out oh now you're right now that you've put it in the end zone you're right I guess we will end racism yeah I always thought it was
Starting point is 00:56:34 kind of stupid. But there's all kinds of, you know, a lot of companies are jettisoning their. What if they replaced it with continue racism? That'd be something. Yeah. That's, that's, yeah, that's next season, whatever is the Trump. Trump's America ramps up. They go from that. Yeah. It would be funny. And I mean, no, it wouldn't hit. But, you know, but yeah, it's just happening all over the place. So the, you know, with the, the, the company's doing the beef towel thing. Of course, it's one of them. And I get a company like steak and shape being at least the first that I'm aware of to, hop on that because they're losing a bunch they've been losing stores over the past couple years so right it's like hell mary their market cap has got to be pretty low and look i like i like yeah i like
Starting point is 00:57:15 with them but i'm saying their fries were not like four they're not up there they're super hitting fries yeah some of the best yella in the game by the way oh my god i bet they're fire now i know right i agree i'm saying you know they did company like that you got to take some swings you know and it's uh because i think they realize it's like there's probably a lot of fast black queers out there who will love this. Yeah. Yeah. Even, you know, even though it's, it is an opposition to wokeness.
Starting point is 00:57:43 And it's like, well, you pegged me. But that's the, that's the fuck-up. Queer, because I am pretty excited about it. But that's the fucked up thing. And it's like, vegans, dude, are vegans eating it fucking steak and shake anyway. And see, I didn't even, honestly, I didn't even think about that part of it, honestly. Oh, that's like, well, I don't know how big of a part of it that is from the company's perspective, but like,
Starting point is 00:58:04 vegans will not eat those fries. Of course not. Obviously, that's true, but like, in my brain, like, I literally was just going, like, I know that, like, pure beef tallow. Like, if you look, pure beef tallow is much better than having 19 other ingredients with all this, like, I wouldn't even thinking about it from the vegan point of view, but it's so shitty to me that, like, it has to be a woke versus not woke thing. And it upsets me so much.
Starting point is 00:58:29 This is what really pisses me off, is that someone out there, can't be both for beef tallow and measles vaccinations. Like, why in the fuck? It's like whenever they propose one of those goddamn bills through Congress, and everybody's like, why did everybody vote no on this? And it's like, well, you just saw the title. You don't know what else was in this fucking bill. It's like, just make a thing, one fucking, like, why?
Starting point is 00:58:53 Like, now me, like, if I eat, I'm like, yes, beef tallow fries are good. Everybody's like, oh, oh, really? So you think that trans people should be erased? I'm like, well, what do you do? No. just this thing, just this one thing. Like, why can't there be either a Republican that has some sense or a Democrat that has some fucking balls?
Starting point is 00:59:12 Why can't one of those things exist, you know? Yeah, I don't know, baby, because nothing hits. Oh, right. I forgot about that. I hope is a lie and only the darkness is real. Yeah, I forgot about that. Yeah, it does seem to be the main thing. But I agree, you know, at least as we ride off into the sunset of our existence, we can do so.
Starting point is 00:59:29 Chowin' down on some hitting new beef tallow french fries. I'm probably going to go get some tonight. I ain't going to lie. Yeah. I mean, is the change, is it already in place? Like, they've got them everywhere. People have been posting pictures. Well, you need to, I mean, I think you need to go try some and report back.
Starting point is 00:59:44 I'm definitely. And if I get there and they don't hit. I just don't see how that's impossible. Right. Because, again, their fries already hit. They hit already. They hit already. That one change.
Starting point is 00:59:55 If anything, I would think it might be like, it's not as good as you thought. Right. And it's like, there's like a placebo effect. We're like, God, these are other words. then it's like they're really just they're just kind of yeah it's not that much of an improvement but everybody wants it to be so much i would anticipate that result sure way more yeah but i mean they're still going to hit for them not that there's but yeah but you're still going to hit yes yeah dude they're still going to hit yeah i mean again like i i know like as someone who be using beef tallow and
Starting point is 01:00:23 other stuff like i can tell you beef tallow mm-hmm does hit does hit all right well you know what else hits, coming to comedy shows and stuff. Laugh your woes away.
