Starting point is 00:03:35 You know what I do a lot? I do on set when I'm bored to the sound guy. I'll do- Now, what do you want now? What kind of, are you doing regular, have you been able to transition to legitimate films? I have transitioned. Let me show you. I'm doing, I'm doing a third season of Dave on FX and Hulu.
Starting point is 00:03:53 Oh, that's right. With a Jewish guy. Kanye would hate our whole production team. There's not a lot of them. Really? You found one on this show? Yeah, we got one, baby. Kanye showed up to set.
Starting point is 00:04:03 We spit on our whole crew. But I'm doing Dave. Season three. But I do sometimes in the sound guy, I go. Not a lot of guys can do that. I think a lot of bored guys can do that. I'll give it a go. Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
Starting point is 00:04:26 What? That's incredible. That was good, right? Wow. Yeah, that was a high-pitched horn. That's my Monday Night Football. Is that drums? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:41 That's from your child? Your child taught you how to do that? Yeah, my child. All she does is go, Daddy, high five. That's all she child? Your child taught you how to do that? Yeah, my child. All she does is go, daddy high five. That's all she knows how to do. She does daddy high five? I hope she's okay up here. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:04:52 No, she's fine. Did she have to wear a helmet when she came out? No, but I put one on her. Just in case. I just told her. I said, listen, get prepared for this economy. We don't make anything in this country anymore. We don't build anything anymore.
Starting point is 00:05:05 We complain and we force them to give us money by saying, I had it hard. I have disabilities. Pay attention to me. So she's learning early. I wired up her jaw and everything. She's got a helmet on. I mean, I drew giants on it so she doesn't feel so bad. Right.
Starting point is 00:05:20 But it's a special helmet. And does she have an underbite? You have to have an underbite. I feel like this is part of like, daddy high five. No, should I pull it out somehow? Yeah, just punch the top lip. Just smoke her in the top and let that thing kick out on the bottom. All right, I will.
Starting point is 00:05:33 What's been going on in New York without me? You miss me over there? Not much. Yeah, no, I mean, things are pretty good. You know, people are getting shoved in the subways. I heard, dude, every time I open up the internet, I feel like another attack in the subway which is funny because i know you don't take the subway no no thank god i make enough to not take the subway but now is it a financial thing because i know there's a lot of people that make enough money
Starting point is 00:05:55 and they still take the subway what is it really with new york there's a lot of new yorkers that just love it yeah no those people are just trying to be down to earth or whatever no if there's no need to take the subway don't do it and I don't even live in the city anymore. But I do return and I do attack people. I attacked Ariana Grande's brother. I do it once in a while like the great Emperor Nero used to do. He used to dress up with his friends. And this is true.
Starting point is 00:06:21 He used to go down with a mask on and he would beat up homeless people. Shut up. That was one of the tamer and he would beat up homeless people. Shut up. That was one of the tamer things he did. So I gave it a whirl. I live in the country now, but when I sneak into the city, I attack a random, and I got lucky,
Starting point is 00:06:32 and I attacked Ariana Grande's brother who just recently got attacked in New York. You got him. I got him. What now is, I heard that Chris Redd, stand-up comedian, SNL cast member.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Got him too. That was Shane. Chicago guy like me. I heard he got punched in the face on the way down to the cellar. I got him. That was a Yon Pop knock. That was a Yon Pop move right there. It was a Yon Pop knock to the head.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Yeah. He's got a soft face. He folded. Yeah, he folded. Ariana Grande's brother, soft face. Did he get beat up for real? I don't know. He got punched right in the kisser.
Starting point is 00:07:01 And nobody knows why by a guy in a security vest, they surmise it may have something to do with where he's putting his peen. Oh, no. Yeah. Be careful. He put his peen, I think, in a friend's ex
Starting point is 00:07:14 or something like that. I don't want to gossip, but I read it. But you can't do that. You technically can, but you shouldn't. Nah. Unwritten rules of manhood.
Starting point is 00:07:23 You can't hook up with anybody. Any one of your friend's exes, they're off limits. Right. And I don't know if that's a fact. I just, that was what, that's what the conjecture was. No, I'm saying, but sidebar. Can't do that anyway. Regardless if that was what happened with them. It's what they call MTV guy code. Guy code.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Welcome back. Yeah, you can't do it. It is true. You can't do that. There's too many people on earth. You cannot hook up with your buddy's ex. I'm sorry. Yeah. If you're willing to lose a friend, look, if he's a shitty friend, fine. Fuck him.
Starting point is 00:07:52 But what if it's like love? What if it's like true love? Not a real thing. No? No. What's real love? What is that? Yeah, that's real love.
Starting point is 00:08:02 Disney. Yeah, that's the- Disney did that. Yeah, that's the fake love. That's all fake. I thought about that because we were- I was joking about the mouse because we work for the mouse.
Starting point is 00:08:09 ABC is the mouse. They own everything now and they own Hulu and FX and we effectively work for them for what it's worth. Let's stop it right there. Uh-huh. Yeah, we don't want to-
Starting point is 00:08:20 Disney, that's what we'll call it. I know, the Diz, the Diz. We're not going to say it's just Disney. But it's so funny to think that like you know you get like we still doing the COVID testing thing
Starting point is 00:08:29 all the time and all that shit and there's all these you know stipulations that the union is trying to get rid of and blah blah blah but I kind of got
Starting point is 00:08:35 in a light discussion with someone about how it's like it's so funny that you know when we're up and we're shooting don't worry about it
Starting point is 00:08:41 but then as soon as you're not shooting like you put on the mask you put on the mask I'm like how come I just did a 30 minute take face to face with somebody it was like that's fine because the money is up when the money is up then they don't care but then i was kidding around about how like what would disney do you know you get sick anyway it's not like they give a shit we're gonna send you like a a goofy phone call like i heard you got covid yeah i heard your dad died they're still doing that huh yeah we're still playing the game oh i heard your mom got real
Starting point is 00:09:11 sick sorry your mom died you get two free park passes no it's just there yeah we're still playing the game because um california la isn't the city doesn't have the rules but the but corporations dude they're they're scared about getting sued and it's so weird it's like we're all playing the game
Starting point is 00:09:32 and doing the right thing but it's like what do you want me to do I don't know what do you want me to do yeah what can you
Starting point is 00:09:38 I don't know what you want me to do and actually Fran Drescher gotten a lot of she got a lot of criticism because she's the SAG president the union president and she publicly was like
Starting point is 00:09:48 I want to see if there's a way to get people money that lost jobs because they weren't able to get vaccinated whether it was a personal choice or a medical or a religious decision
Starting point is 00:09:56 people got all mad and I was like good for her she's standing up for people lost a lot of money because they were like I don't want to get vaxxed or I can't get vaxxed
Starting point is 00:10:03 and they couldn't work and then people and then companies were like especially out here they're like well you're fired yeah so she's trying to do the right thing which is funny and of course everybody is like shame on you fran yeah what do you mean people need to work yeah and they just never considered the vaccine that i mean the a previous infection like equivalent to a vaccine which is what they should have done. Yeah, we all got clipped by the way. Yeah, so if you got clipped,
Starting point is 00:10:26 I mean, it's like that's the equivalent to a vaccine so then that should have been fine. And there's still not a good explanation of why that wasn't. There never will be. We'll look back in 50 years.

Good God, you can't get cursed twice in this fucking life. It's not a curse, it's fucking great. And you're a handsome ginge.
Starting point is 00:16:55 Well, congrats. Yeah, usually the ginges aren't as good looking as you. I've said this before, I'll say it again. 95% of men who are redheaded are hideous creatures, repulsive looking guys. 5% not bad. Yeah. 5%. With women, opposite.
Starting point is 00:17:14 I think most redheaded women seem to be very good looking. There's like a lot of beautiful redheaded women. You see a couple of hagglers in there. I agree. But for the men, boy, oh boy, it's mostly just unfortunate. It's usually off the mark. It's bad. And I think it's, well, because the genes are fucked up here, so they, it's just they
Starting point is 00:17:32 get scrambled eggs in the face as well. Yeah. And I got lucky. My mom's a pretty lady. My old man was handsome. So I'm somewhere in the middle. I'll take it. I've always said, you know your number, don't you?

I'd go a little higher.
Starting point is 00:17:54 No, you're tall. You're tall. That helps. Good head of hair. That helps. But still seven. Seven. Eight is reserved for...
Starting point is 00:18:01 What are you? What am I? Yeah. 6.6. I'm like a Dave Portnoy pizza score. Okay, we're out here, Brookline, Mass. Yeah. We're at Fuzzy's Pizzeria.

He takes a lot of bites. One bite is a bullshit idea. Yeah. But you know what bums me out about that whole thing, by the way? One bite is bullshit. He takes a lot of bites.
Starting point is 00:18:26 One bite is a bullshit idea. Yeah. You can't have one bite and understand what something is. No. You'd have to have multiple bites to really let it ruminate and understand how. Well, he takes multiple bites, and sometimes he'll add one on a woman. Oh! That was a good one I gotta say
Starting point is 00:18:45 That was very good You're very good You Very good Hey are you gonna see Your other He says that to the girls One bite you know the rules

Starting point is 00:19:08 Yeah, I think I might hook up with him. You don't have a choice. I don't have a choice when I come out here. I'm like, yeah, I'll just be like, I'm coming out here. He's like, come over, we're making pizzas. I don't know why I'm fascinated with that relationship. It's also because I think we've known him since we were kids, in my mind, as a public person. Yeah, well, it's weird because my ex-girlfriend was obsessed with her and she's got a whole
Starting point is 00:19:27 shtick about him. And then she broke up with me and now I'm like really good friends with him. So I won. Who won, bitch? Yeah, I won. And then you're here and then you go back to New York and are you touring? Are you going to tour or no? Yeah, I'm touring heavy.
Starting point is 00:19:40 You are? I'm touring heavy. I'm heavy. Like the red wave that didn't come. Did not come. That wave turned into just a light ripple, didn't it? I'm torn heavy. I'm heavy. Like the red wave. That didn't come. Did not come. That wave turned into just a light ripple, didn't it? It was just a spotting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:49 It was just spotting. Well, I got to tell you, it surprised me how... Actually, it didn't surprise me. It was pretty on par how boring all that turned out to be. I thought something was going to happen. I kind of felt like, ooh, midterms. This might be something wild. Nothing happened.
Starting point is 00:20:07 Nothing happened. Nothing fucking happened. Well, what happened was the Dems came strong. Yeah, but I mean, also, I don't think anything... Nothing's going to change anyway. I think everything's going to kind of stay the course. Well, Trumpy's running. I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Well, he announced a couple weeks ago. I know, but you know what I mean. I still think this is all a ruse for him to get back in the public eye because he wants his – whatever his fucking Twitter app that he's invented. What's it called? He's got a social media – a right-wing – Truth Social. Truth, yeah. I think it's Truth Social.
Starting point is 00:20:33 These guys just want to bring more press to their shit. Yeah. That's how I've always felt that I'm like, this isn't – Trump's not going to run again. Well, yeah, I don't think he's got to – it looks like all the candidates that he endorsed, they came up short. Yeah, and all the Republicans hate him anyway. Yeah, he's kind of like Denzel at the end of Training Day. Oh, yeah, they're all against you now. Yeah, he's like standing there and he's yelling.
Starting point is 00:20:56 That's so good. Yeah, he's kind of like Denzel at the end of Training Day. You motherfuckers ain't with me! And they all slowly disappear. And they're just pushing the gun. You got to fight your own battles, man. Yeah, and then they fuck yeah that's what a good scene
Starting point is 00:21:06 yeah Jakey why can't I think of that actor's name now Ethan Hawke Ethan Hawke one of my favorite actors too god he's so good I love him
Starting point is 00:21:13 when he makes him smoke wet you know in the car yeah and he's tripping yeah it's they of all the times I've seen drug use
Starting point is 00:21:21 in film look whack that was one that I was like this kind of is what it feels like you fade in and out of consciousness when you when you when you get too high on any kind of substance you're they showed him fading in and out kind of receiving messages but not adhering to them not understanding how to like be i was like this is kind of a the best version of i'm too high to function have you ever smoked crack like that? No, I've never smoked crack.
Starting point is 00:21:46 But I mean, like if I'm on something heavy, if I'm on heavy psychedelics or something, you're kind of not, you're with it, but you're not really with it when you're tripping really hard.

Starting point is 00:26:31 Idiot. It's Italian. It's culture. You can't really. That's just a cultural thing in Italian. I want it to burn my mouth. Yeah. A little discipline, like Sean Connery said.
Starting point is 00:26:40 A little smack. It doesn't hurt anybody. I'm okay with smacking a woman right on the face. That guy's insane. Yeah. That was so fucking funny then it was barbara walters it was barbara walters yeah and she was like do you want to take it back and he was like actually no no i in fact i reinforce my beliefs about women being less than no but i think i'm strict about some stuff or i'm i like things a certain way sometimes but i swear i said this to someone else the other day certain things that used to i think
Starting point is 00:27:05 used to be a thing now i've learned to just be like fuck it dude let it go yeah because i just look like you like when trump lost the election you finally have just you're up you've let you accepted it did i leave my trump flag up i did sorry neighbors you know what? In my neighborhood, this was wild. There was a dude. This guy had a huge Trump flag. And then across the street, they had the gay pride flag, but it's the other one with all the other shit in it. And they flew it across the street from each other. And I was like, how funny is that to be the neighbor of either of those people to just see them like what sipping coffee just watching them pull out by the way and his f-350 and their tesla you know what i mean like at the exact same time it's just that's that is more la than people know
Starting point is 00:27:57 i think people don't know there's some reds out here there's a ton of them there's a ton of them i think that people think it's all because the industry is all one way, and you think that's the whole of L.A., but that's not true, man. That's not true. It's different than people think. It's like that everywhere. There's certain little sort of sub-areas that are red and blue, and they're right next to each other, and they get a little bit of what it feels like to be on the Israeli-Palestinian border. That's how they must feel. Gaza.
Starting point is 00:28:26 The Gaza Strip is Ventura Boulevard, whether you like it or not. I mean, they see each other's flags. They're right there. Yeah, they're right next to each other. They can hear each other's music. They can throw stuff at each other. Blum, blum, blum, blum, blum, blum, blum, blum, blum, blum. By the way, I'm sorry that you had to drive all the way here from Smell AX.
Starting point is 00:28:42 I know that's way too far. You texted me. You're like, it's 10 miles, but it's two hours. It was just the traffic. But you were in the heart. You have to know. I do know this when I travel to New York, too. I'm not landing near in rush hour.
Starting point is 00:28:53 I'm either in the middle of the day at 2 o'clock, or I'm waiting until the nighttime. This was worse than usual. I mean, I'm used to L.A. traffic, especially in Russia, but this was worse than usual. And I found out why. Kanye was doing an Israelite speech on the street. Oh, he was? On Hollywood Boulevard. No way.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Yeah, he was out there. He had the robes on and he was going to read. And so there was a big crowd. There was a big crowd? There was a big crowd, yeah. I think it's tough to get around that. I know they block off the streets for that guy. He's fun right now.
Starting point is 00:29:24 He's hot right now he's hot right i mean we got it somehow we got to figure out a way to put meds in the in whatever city he's in just put it in the water supply and get it into him well he's on to you know what is put it in those little bottles in the black car suvs he takes all the time just put it just drop it into some of his life water or whatever it is i hope they don't just let him go it's fun to watch. Well, they haven't. He's out of his mind. Well, the hypocrisy is that they're like, he's sick.
Starting point is 00:29:49 He's sick. Okay, let's get him on CNN. So they don't really give a fuck about him. If they did, they'd try to help him. Instead, they're like, let's exploit him. And because, you know, all these guys like Cuomo and all these guys are like, I want to have a conversation with you. It's like, no, you don't.
Starting point is 00:30:00 You want to get clicks. You want this to be the next viral. If you gave a fuck, if anybody of us gave a fuck about the guy in the media world we would not you wouldn't have him on anything right you because then you'd be like i care i don't want to exploit you while you're vulnerable and let you say dumb shit into the microphone right it's silliness they're all self-serving and it's so see-through when they're like you know when cuomo and uh and lex friedman all these people are like i really want to help you.
Starting point is 00:30:25 I want to be your friend. It's like, then why did you put a camera on him? What the fuck are you talking about? Why did you bright light camera this guy if you wanted to help him? It's such a fucking lie. It bothered me when I saw all of them. And it was clickbait for all of them. I'm sure their views went through the roof and they got what they needed.
Starting point is 00:30:42 And that guy will still be fucking spinning out. You know, he'll be out of control. What is the source of all this chaos? The Kardashians. They started it. It seems like, yeah, it seems like, you know, when you leave that, you're different. They change you. You're a little different.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Call Lamar Odom. I mean, didn't he flatline? He died. He died. And he came back. Yeah. God was like, I'll give you one more shot, but you stay away from those chicks. Yeah, they do something to you.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Something's in the water. Something's in the water. Something's in the water over there where they were scared, dude. By the way, and I know this episode's going to come out far after, but man, oh, man, was I happy to see Philly finally use a football game because if I saw those clowns go undefeated all year and watch philly boneheads like our good friends we have so many friends philly guys like chrissy o'connor and shane gilly and those fucking dickheads if i had to listen to them celebrating going to the world series
Starting point is 00:31:35 losing by the way they lost yeah and then going to the super bowl though i would undefeated i would blow my fucking brains philly fans are i have so many friends from Philly, but man, are they the worst. Philly and Boston are tough. Ah, dickheads. They're tough. Dickheads. Yeah, they're tough. Boston, I feel like Boston fans,
Starting point is 00:31:51 like Boston people, they use sports in the place of emotions. Like I feel like when they want to, they're like, they want to say something emotional to you, they use like a sports team. A hundred percent. And they just like,
Starting point is 00:32:04 we'll talk about it through sports. It's like, yeah. Debra left me, but you know, I'm doing my burr. Yeah. Yeah, Debra left me, dude. But what would Brady do in this situation? What would Marcus Smart do? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:22 That's exactly it. Persevere. That's my burr. Automatically when I think Boston, I just think of him. Yeah. He is the epitome of it and played fucking Fenway and I texted him. That was incredible. I texted him. I was like, you know what's so funny about him?
Starting point is 00:32:36 That's incredible. Still a humble dude. Yeah. I was like, you know, congratulate him. And he was like, thank you so much, blah, blah, blah. And I said, you know, like him. And he was like, thank you so much, blah, blah, blah. And I said, you know, like never a doubt. I don't know what we were saying before, but I was trying to say like never a doubt.
Starting point is 00:32:50 I wrote at the end of it like that's, you're a fucking, you're the one. There's very few guys I've met in this business who I respect more. He is him. He's him. That's what they say in the streets. Yeah, he's him. He's him. He's him.
Starting point is 00:33:02 He's not, he's the same guy. Yeah, I'm surprised. His feet are planted. That's hard to say in the streets. Yeah, he's him. He's him. He's him. He's not. He's the same guy. Yeah, I'm surprised. His feet are planted. That's hard to do. Yeah. I feel like that's hard to do because you've seen enough people kind of come and go in the thing. But that's a hard thing to do at that level. I don't.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Kudos to him. I don't know how anybody keeps sane when they become – when you sell out baseball stadiums. That's fucking crazy to me. That's insane. That's insane to sell out Fenwell Park. And what that must have felt like for him, a kid from Boston, it just must have been incredible. Yeah, and I respect him too because he's done like – right? He's done like Star Wars shit.
Starting point is 00:33:40 But then you watch his act and it's the same. Yeah, nothing changed. He's third rail. He's still third rail. Fenway to him is what to you? The Pantheon? What is it? The Parthenon?
Starting point is 00:33:51 I mean, it's got to be Yankee Stadium. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's funny to know that that'll never happen. But- Oh, wait. Why not? Maybe.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Yan, maybe. When you get a little older, your dreams get a little more manageable. Yeah. They're a little more manageable. Like, oh, let me just get a solid shit. And, you know. Can I make it back there and back to LA? God, I hope that fifth show sold out.
Starting point is 00:34:14 You know, it's very manageable stuff, you know. That's a good life. It's great, dude. It's great. Yeah. Nothing's missing for you right now. No. Right now.
Starting point is 00:34:22 If you could fix one thing, though, what would it be? If you were like, you know what I wish I had right now? Actually, that's a good point. Yeah. I mean, things are good. So it's like, it's kind of like if that's, if you don't have a thing where you're like, man, I wish I fucking, if I could only. No.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Yeah. I mean, everything's great. The tour schedule's filled up. GiannisPappasComedy.com. Go to GiannisPappasComedy.com. Go buy a fucking ticket while you listen to this right now and go see the boy. Are you collecting a new hour? Is that what you're doing?
Starting point is 00:34:48 I'm collecting a new hour. Yeah, and if you haven't watched the special, it's only a couple months. It's been up. Go watch that. Go watch it. It's called Mom Love. It's called Mom Love. It's on the internet everywhere you can click.
Starting point is 00:34:57 It's on the YouTubes, yeah. Bring your finger around. You'll see it without a doubt. You already have a new hour that you're smashing? No, not a full hour. Tough, isn't it? No, I squeeze in some of the old stuff, yeah. Like, I put mine out in January, my special,
Starting point is 00:35:08 and man, am I empty-headed. Where's yours? I've got 15 minutes. It's gonna be on Netflix. Ooh! Congratulations. Thanks, but also, you know, it's all the same now. Yeah, well... The internet is just the internet. It's almost like... If they promote it,
Starting point is 00:35:24 you know, if they keep it in that... They won't. I'll have to. Yeah. I'll have to. Yeah. But that's fine. It is what it is.
Starting point is 00:35:29 And then... But you know what's good about Netflix, though? It's on your phone. Yeah, that. But I've done two on YouTube now, and it's great. But I feel like Netflix, you get a chance for maybe like a little more of a mature audience, a little older audience. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Ticket buyers, as they say. Yeah. That's what I'm kind of hoping. Right. Because YouTube is still, I think, very young. And it's like a pre-married crowd. And now I'm a married guy. So I think that's the advantage of YouTube.
Starting point is 00:35:55 You're a married guy. So I think you get a- But also, I've also felt that the more I see, like we bought a new TV for the studio in the other room, and now they're so front loaded. The first button is YouTube on the thing. It's YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, buttons, boom, boom, boom, because they know that people aren't getting cable as much anymore. And that's the first one they have. So I was like, I do think a lot of people go home at night, hit the YouTube button and let it, you play the one thing that they – they start with the thing and then they let the algorithm choose for them.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Yeah. So it's one and the same. It's kind of how I'm starting to feel that all of it is chunked into the same spot. Like, by the way, I'm sure you've had somebody who's seen your special and went, dude, I watched your Netflix special because it's just synonymous with comedy special. Yeah. Even if they saw it on YouTube, in their mind, they're yeah netflix special yeah yeah you're probably right it is a weird like i've had my like my parents friends will say that unknowledgeably and they'll go the netflix special i'm like no i don't have one yet yeah and they'll go what have i seen what have i seen then right
Starting point is 00:36:58 it's like it's all the internet you saw internet right i love hearing how normal people think about what we do they're're like, you know. Well, it's bullshit. Yeah, they're like, I think I saw your skit thing. What was your sketch? Yeah, what was your, you did a sketch. I saw your thing. What's your skit?
Starting point is 00:37:12 And then you go, they go like, oh, no, that must have been Jerry Seinfeld. They're like so far removed. Yeah. Or when they ask you, my favorite is when they ask you if you know somebody. That's, it's a little, it's not. Have you met Carol Burnett? Yeah, do you know her? Do you know her? Yeah, I know you if you know somebody. That's, it's a little. Have you met Carol Burnett? Yeah, do you know her? Do you know her?
Starting point is 00:37:28 Yeah, I know her. Drew Carey. Now that's a guy we like. Yeah, there's a certain age group over a certain age where they can, like if they just still think you're struggling because they haven't seen you like on a channel four sitcom. Yeah, you haven't been on carson yeah up to the day she died i should that's a lie the last year of my grandmother's life she started to really kind of it started to feel real but honestly before that i had my grandmother multiple times say to my mom like
Starting point is 00:38:00 you know when is andrew gonna like get a job and she's like he has a lot of jobs like he works on tv and she'll be like oh well no i know but like you know if he really wants to like have a family and get married you know it's like he needs like probably like a work a job yeah you know yeah and i and my mother had no explanation it's like yeah yeah just you have to say yeah what are you gonna do fight about being like no this this thing he does is a job. She's going to go, but when am I going to see him on the Sid Caesar show? Parents proud of you? Does he not want to? He doesn't really want to make it, huh?
Starting point is 00:38:32 Because if he did, we would see him. We would really see him out there doing one of those Sinatra specials. Is Frank still making those? Where's Frank? Half a glass deep. Those are the guys I wish we could go back in a time machine and see how they lived. You know the pack is the rat pack as glorified as it was you know it was fucking sad as shit you think so yeah yeah dude in the same way i felt about um uh uh hugh hefner
Starting point is 00:38:56 the first time i ever went to the um playboy mansion it immediately if you are self-aware at all and you go to one of those places you immediately learn how cockamamie yucky weirdo shit that is why it's scummy it's it was like oh it was always like scummy fat weird rich guys sauntering around with like sad lost daddyless girls and that's what it that's what if i saw it right away the first time i went i was poor we got snuck in through friends production companies rich guy buddy and i knew right away i The first time I went, I was poor. We got snuck in through our friends, production companies, rich guy buddy. And I knew right away. I was like, oh, I've always kind of felt weird about Playboy Mansion.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Even if it had all this thing. And it lived up to the thought, which was it was shit. It was dog shit. Well, because you're a comedian. Comedians are a different type of entertainer. Right. It's hard to receive that organically. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:44 We're always aware. We're always seeing entertainer. Right, it's hard to receive that organically. Yeah, we're always aware. We're always, you know, seeing through things. Right, yeah. And even when other people, I think, are smart enough to, because I'm not saying we're smarter, but even when people, like,
Starting point is 00:39:55 get it enough to see through it, they choose to horse blind it because they just want to have a good time. You know, when someone's like, can't you just have fun? And you're like, how? This is fucking awful. And they're like, just come on. Will you drop the comedian thing for me? And you're like, how? This is fucking awful. And they're like, just come on.
Starting point is 00:40:06 Will you drop the comedian thing for me? And you're like, no. It's in my DNA to call out how crazy this thing is. Even just to myself, I can't fake it. I couldn't fake it. It was a bummer. It yucked me out fucking hard. I mean, the guy had to constantly be in a robe because that was his brand.
Starting point is 00:40:22 It's like, put on a fucking pair of Dockers, guy. Grow up. Yeah, grow up. Grow up. Get this guy some slacks. I mean, he's always in a robe because that was his brand. It's like, put on a fucking pair of Dockers, guy. Grow up. Yeah, grow up. Grow up. Get this guy some slacks. I mean, he's like always in a robe. That's the same as the guy in the neighborhood
Starting point is 00:40:31 who like never puts on real clothes and he's like, well, I'm just a stay-at-home dad. You're like, yeah, well, take a shower. Yeah, he's a fucking lazy asshole. Walking around like Jimmy the, what was it,
Starting point is 00:40:40 the chin who was trying to pretend like he was crazy. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. That boss. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was just always in a robe. Good act, though, by the way. If you could pretend like he was crazy. Yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. That mob boss. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was just always in a robe. Good act, though, by the way.
Starting point is 00:40:47 If you could pretend like you're loopy just so you can get away with more stuff. He went for it. He committed. Yeah. I think committing to the bit like that is pretty... I applaud stuff. We talked on Bad Friends. This woman, she wanted to be blind so bad she blinded herself.
Starting point is 00:41:00 And that's committing to the bit. Through acid in her eyeballs. Yeah. Because she wanted to be blind? Wanted to be blind. She felt. She threw acid in her eyeballs. Yeah. Because she wanted to be blind? Wanted to be blind. She felt she was born blind in her heart. How old was she? She needed to go blind.
Starting point is 00:41:11 It's almost like in her 20s when she did it. Oh, my God. So that's like, yeah, see, that's what's going on now. That's what's happening. That's what's going on now. That's what's happening. You can't add comedy to comedy. I mean, you know, we're living in a pretty peculiar time.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Hard to beat the world at its own joke. She felt like she just identified as a blind woman. Well, yeah. I mean, there's also, we talked about this on the show too. There's a guy who identifies as Korean who got like a hundred surgeries done to look Korean and changed his name. He identifies as Korean. He has no association with it other than he loves Korean culture. Yeah, I mean, everything from soup to nuts,
Starting point is 00:41:48 from how people, what their gender is, or what their... However you think you were in whatever lifetime, you can be. That's why I said, you think you're a girl? And you know what I think I am? I am a lowly man who lives on the street
Starting point is 00:42:06 who plays music in the alleyways his mouth trumpet and i get by with my mouth trumpet and a couple of blow jobs here and there yeah you know i suck a couple that's who you are you got a good tutor yeah but i think i sleep under uh and underpasses because sometimes i'll find myself driving under an underpass and i'll go, that's a good place to sleep. That would be a good place. Like I'll see the nook. I'll see nooks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Sometimes I'll see a homeless nook and I'll go, ooh, prime. Yeah. It's roof-ish. Roof-ish. It's roof-ish. Yeah, it is. It's as close to a roof as you can get. How about this?
Starting point is 00:42:40 If you could disappear, if you, boom, snap your fingers, and you could disappear, right? Snap your fingers And you could disappear Right Responsibility's all gone And But you had to transport to somewhere Where would you start The new life Rome I'd go to Rome

Starting point is 00:43:15 Would I leave my family? And could I choose who I am, how rich I am, how powerful I am, things like that? A few of those details, I think, are too generous. I think you can choose what kind of person you are, where you live, like what your occupation is and where you live. Okay. The rest is going to be up to the others. I'm a Caesar. Oh, you're a Caesar.
Starting point is 00:43:31 I'm going to Caesar and I'm going back to Rome. Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I'm going to Rome. I'm going to be a Caesar. I'm going to have a harem. You're going to be a harem guy? I'm going to be a harem guy.

Starting point is 00:44:06 I'd be a Viking. Ooh. I think it's kind of in my blood already. I'm sure my ancestors were rapad by Vikings because, you know, the red soul, the red crush. It's like it can afflict anyone, right? It can, but mostly the up north people got it a lot. Yeah, like Deontay, what's his name? Dante.
Starting point is 00:44:27 No, the basketball player, he was a redhead, the one who- Delonte? Delonte West. Poor guy, man. He's me in the other life, the guy I'm talking about. I mean, you know, he got to fuck LeBron's mom. I mean, it's not easy to do. Maybe that was the secret to his lack of success.
Starting point is 00:44:41 You clip her and you just, that's it. Yeah, I think after that, it's tough to be persona grata. Fuck your teammates, mom. Yeah, yeah. We're gonna have to let you go. Not just any team, like, you know, the face of the league. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:57 You know, there was a moment there where he had a choice. Like John Travolta in Pulp Fiction, he probably hit the bathroom. He's like, you you just gonna jerk off and walk away and he didn't do it he didn't do it

Starting point is 00:48:47 Yeah, of course. No, I think I would be a Viking because, just because of the boat shit. I think boat life would be wild. You know it's a short-lived life. You ain't living long. You're going to get killed or you're going to get sick. Wait, you're going to be a Viking just for the boat ride? Boat life, my dude.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Well, because you kind of, Vikings were kind of piratey. You know what I mean? Well, what about the pillaging, the raping, and all that stuff? Well, that's what, that's involved. Those are the amenities. Those are the amenities. Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 00:49:11 That's like a hotel that, you know, that has nice soap. Yeah. That's what that is. But I also want the view. From the boat. I want the boat view. But it wasn't like a yacht boat. I mean, you're in like a shitty wooden boat.
Starting point is 00:49:20 See, but I like that. You're rowing. Yeah. But you're commiserating. You're with your clique with your click your crew yeah uh vikings were just frats they were just frats that's all that was a viking ship was just a frat a floating frat that's all it was they were they were town they were free to date rape without it's just a floating frat that's all vikings were no I just think it'd be
Starting point is 00:49:45 I think I'd want to do something where it would be extreme because the life is extreme and the death is quick you know you know you're getting stabbed
Starting point is 00:49:54 shot you're getting drowned something shot I mean I think that's anachronistic I'm not sure the gun was invented yet if you're a viking
Starting point is 00:50:00 shot jizz no it was a jizz record oh okay yeah jizz they drown you in it ah that was one of the methods yeah that's what they make the history books yeah stab cannonballed yeah that would be that would be a nice that would be another way to torture someone who's just bukkake their face till they drown in a marauding tribe's cum. Bukkake.
Starting point is 00:50:25 Yeah. It's like Chinese water torture. Yeah, but it's just- Japanese bukkake torture. It's just bukkake. Yeah. They just all come on your face until you drown in it. You can't breathe.
Starting point is 00:50:33 It's covering your nose. It's actually- You would be good for the government. Have you thought about working for the feds? No, but it is good. You let it dry there so it closes the eyes. It closes the mouth. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Their hands can't take it off. Oh, please, please. That would be horrible. That might be one of the worst ways to die. I also don't... Ling Chi is also... What's that? Did you learn that from Bobby? That's his kid's name, Ling Chi.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Yeah, you know something he told you? Ling Chi is death by a thousand cuts. You've never heard of Ling Chi? Ouchie! Yeah. That's old torture shit. They slightly cut you until your skin becomes like, it's like it falls off. And that's something
Starting point is 00:51:11 that the eastern hemisphere people did? No, Arkansas. It's right out of Arkansas. It's Little Rock. Yeah, that's one of the old, Ling Chi was a death by a thousand cuts. It's an ancient torture. But I think things like that
Starting point is 00:51:24 that they don't do anymore uh are are disgusting it's very creative though isn't it funny how creative how vicious humans could be like when you look at this you're going like man like we really we can take it all the way yeah crucifixion chinese water torture stoning's crazy. Yeah. You're throwing. By the way, it's based on hand-eye coordination and hate. You gotta be good at gaming and hating at the exact same time. You have to be an athlete who's
Starting point is 00:51:53 good at hating. I've seen a stoning on a video. You've watched? Yeah. That's one of those like faces of death things? No, it was like before the internet was like really regulated, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those things were just like on YouTube and you you'd see a Verizon commercial before them. Get two family lines for three. Goes straight to a stone.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Dude gets stoned in the streets. That is so funny. An ASPCA commercial. Someone getting beat to death in the street. There's still versions of those which are really funny. You'll have a real mainstream commercial and then it'll cut to a horrifying 911 call
Starting point is 00:52:32 of a mother who's killed their kids and you're like, I don't know if I want to see that. You guys demonetized my video because I said a certain word but you're totally cool with monetizing live murder. Those phone calls they put up on the internet, I heard one where it's a guy a certain word, but you're totally cool with monetizing live murder. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Well, those, those phone calls they put up on the internet of like, I heard one where it's a guy who's like, I just killed my wife. Yeah. And he's like, and they,
Starting point is 00:52:53 and they call it, you know, by the way, shout out those, those people that are trained there, they are Jedi with their, the way they talk to them to keep them on the phone. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Cause the, the, the operator was like, okay, all right. Who, who, who are, are what is your name like not any questions about the murder right uh mike you know whatever it's like okay mike where are you right now are you are you okay yeah it's like it makes them feel like they might be the victim right so they don't get vulnerable hang up and leave yeah and she was she was it was unbelievable listening to it it's a psychology lesson because she was like okay are you there alone now, Mike?
Starting point is 00:53:27 Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. Do you have weapons on you still? Or it was just like, if you look at the way that they learn to diffuse these people in these situations that are already out of their, their loop is gone. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:38 They're not present. So it's like, they're talking to a, I guess that you, they turn into like a child. Cause the way they respond is childlike. They're like, uh-huh. Yeah. Uh-huh. Like they're talking to a i guess that you they turn into like a child because the way they respond is childlike they're like uh-huh yeah uh-huh like they're not clear answers yeah most of them are good but then you'll come across one or two of the videos where they're you're just screaming at the 911 operator because she's she's like keeps asking the address from like a woman who's like been kidnapped living under well that's Well, that's nuts. Yeah, yeah. And she has to whisper. 44, 25 L. Yeah. Okay, ma'am, don't yell.
Starting point is 00:54:07 Just give me the address. Her kidnapper's sleeping, so she had a moment. I've heard those ones. And she's like, I'm at 4-4. And the person's like, what? Chewing a sandwich. Can you say that again? It's like, no, I can't.
Starting point is 00:54:22 And I see the woman in my mind. Yeah. Say this slower. I'm typing it in. Hold on. Being in my mind. Yeah. Say this slower. I'm typing it in. Hold on. I'm being so jumpy. Fuck. Just got back from lunch.
Starting point is 00:54:30 Can you say it louder? I can't hear you. Yeah, that's the point. He's asleep. I can't. Okay, you know what? Wake up your kidnapper. Ask him what it is because I'm getting tired of this.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Yeah. And then sometimes they'll go too many details. You're like, he's got me like in a little trapped in a little closet they're like can you tell me where the closet is is in the house
Starting point is 00:54:51 yeah she's like okay there's two bedrooms upstairs fucking GPS location yeah and get help
Starting point is 00:54:57 don't you know hasn't my phone pinged where I am right now by now don't you know a million times over yeah I saw that on
Starting point is 00:55:04 on something about that now, you know, legally they can use those pings wherever you are. Like in court, right? Like it's not admissible where your phone is pinging off cell towers constantly if it's on. Right. So they can always find the last spot that you were at no matter who you are, where you're from. So you're just, we're giving up all that information. Yeah. You're being pinged, my dog.
Starting point is 00:55:28 They know everything, man. And that's why I went like, oh, they're like, don't get on TikTok because the CCP is taking all your info. I'm like, dude, they already have it. I mean, they have it. You think Twitter didn't do that or Instagram didn't do that? They all have it. Yeah, they got it. They know exactly.
Starting point is 00:55:41 Elon, I just, I want some of your information. That guy, what a weird, what a robot guy. Who, Elon? Yeah, it's so funny. People are so mad at him. He goes from, it's funny, he goes from hero to villain to hero to villain. Like that. It's real funny.
Starting point is 00:55:56 It's like he puts up Starling for the Ukrainians and people are like, ah. Elon. He creates an electric car. Elon. Then he posts a conspiracy theory that Paul Pelosi was bludgeoned by his gay lover, and then it goes down. Kill him! Yeah, that was a quick lapse in judgment right when he bought Twitter. He just posted that.
Starting point is 00:56:14 It just shows you that Twitter gets everybody. No matter how smart, no matter how successful, Twitter will take you down. He just bought the fucking thing like a day ago and hillary clinton posted a thing and he posted under hillary clinton's he posted maybe more to this story than meets the eye and you're like elon don't do it no he's don't click send and he clicked that but you know what it is that's that's trump lived through the exact same thing when people were like why would he tweet that you're like because he knows it's gonna garner so much attention faster than anything he could do it also just twitter just shows how flawed we all are and how like emotional and unstable unstable i'd say unstable
Starting point is 00:56:52 yeah mentally unstable as a society twitter is the collective look at how sick and twisted we are yeah and and how and how one narrative can get spun three different ways in the same in one chunk like i saw a guy this is tiktok but it is still twitter the idea is twitter and you know what i mean when i say this there was a girl a woman recording her little tiny girl who was like um she's very young and she's like there's a black girl that we play with at the park that has beautiful hair with braids and would you ever do that with my hair can i have it like that she looks pretty whatever and then it flips to a guy being like a black dude
Starting point is 00:57:31 being like uh sorry you're not going to culturally appropriate but and then it flips to like a white guy who dubbed on that video and was just like that's a baby girl dude just a baby girl trying to look pretty and it's so funny how you can see you know what i mean you'll see seven that is twitter where it's like yeah yeah it's like burn him make him a king kill him it's so funny layers and layers of commentary yeah man commentary about commentary it's yeah dragging he was dragging her then that guy's dragging him somebody's gonna drag the guy that was dragging him that was dragging her. But at the end of the day, what Twitter is, which is this as well, it's moot because poof, and it's gone again. Right?
Starting point is 00:58:10 Like all of this, it's a ton of noise. It's like a bad crowd in comedy when they do this laugh where they go, and it's silence. You know these like peaky things? Yeah, yeah. They give you no momentum. That's what Twitter is. It's and then nothingness. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:23 It's, and then nothing is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's creepy. It's like post-apocalyptic silence with dust after this nonsense, everyone's gnawing at each other, and then silence. Yeah, yeah. And then I think at the end of the day when they said it might go away, good, fucking blow it up. Fuck it. It's shit anyway. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:38 We definitely don't need it. That would be a hilarious troll if he just paid 40, what is it, 40- 44 billion? 44 billion to just- Trash it? Just treat it like he did that Tesla sent into space. He just takes all the hard drives, he puts them in a Tesla, and he just sends them up to Mars, and that's it. I think that's a good idea. And honestly, fuck it. Trash it.
Starting point is 00:58:56 You don't need it. I think it'd be better if everything crashed on that stuff. We'd probably be a little bit more sane. I think it's safe to say that without Twitter, things would be a lot chiller. It's really responsible for a lot of things that are not chill. And also a lot of bullshit. It hasn't chilled anything out. No chill.
Starting point is 00:59:15 No. Twitter has no fucking chill. There's no like chakra yoga teacher with like 14 billion followers where everyone's just going there on Twitter to be like, hey, man, teach me how to chill it's like people are on there to fucking be angry even still even if a yogi was on there and like trying to promote if Jesus was on there
Starting point is 00:59:32 be like fuck you yeah fuck off he'd be like turn the other cheek wash my feet dick there'd be fucking memes under words of like there'd be Will Ferrell memes going like to everything Jesus said no it's so true it's sad Will Ferrell means going like, ah. That's everything Jesus says.
Starting point is 00:59:47 That is, no, it's so true. It's sad. That's kind of where it is now. And he wouldn't be able to get any following because all his tweets would be like very loving. Right. Caring. You can't get followers that way. It'd be boring and shit. He's like, hey, guys, render unto Caesar.
Starting point is 00:59:59 And someone's like, fuck you, dude. You're working for the Illuminati. Yeah, right. You're a secret pedophile cult. What's up with you and pizza shops, Jesus? Try to bury Jesus right away. He would. That's why he hasn't come back.
Starting point is 01:00:12 He knows how fucked we are. The idea that he would return again, no chance. This guy hasn't come back because he sees it and he's like, no, no, no, no. This is fucking, let them kill each other. Let this thing burn out and I'll go back when it starts again. He's probably going, I shouldn't have. I probably shouldn't have even went the first time.
Starting point is 01:00:26 Yeah, that was bad. I went, and look what they did to me. They fucking strung me up. They really were not cool to him. They were very Twittered. Very. Very un-chill. Yeah, they were very un-chill.
Starting point is 01:00:38 Very Twitter-esque. Yeah. They had zero fucking chill. We're not a chill animal. Nah, but humans instinctively, we're beasts. We're communal. We're angry. We're not a chill animal. Nah, but humans instinctively, we're beasts. We're communal. We're angry. We're defensive.
Starting point is 01:00:49 We're protective. So, of course, given all those digital tools to get all of this stuff done in a short span of time, of course we're going to go bad with it. It's going to go bad. You know where I've, the sweet spot of chill, I think? Yeah. I think I'm in it right now. Because, like, my daughter's now going to, like, daycare and stuff like that.
Starting point is 01:01:08 The sweet spot, because most of the reason why we're not chill is, like, all the testosterone and chemicals and youth and ignorance and, you know, nihilism. When you're young, you know, you want to bang your head in the wall so your friends could laugh. You want to fucking shit on someone out the window for laughs. So your friends could laugh. You want to fucking shit on someone out the window for laughs. But when you have like a kid and your testosterone levels are down because you're in your mid-30s or 40s or 50s, like everything's chill. And everyone there is like so responsible, caring about the community, about the future because now they have a vested interest in it. But also testosterone levels are fucking down.
Starting point is 01:01:42 Makes for a chill party. It's a chill party. It's a – dude, when a dude when everyone lower your tea when everyone's got low tea and you're in a party dude everyone's just sitting around sipping uh whiskey talking convo right it's not like nobody's taking a bottle and like fucking smashing someone's face on it you know it's totally chill no one's so that's the sweet spot that is the nugget that like that the like kids married 30s to 60. That's the sweet spot. It's almost, that was almost the universe's chill pill. That's a chill pill, yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:10 Fucking, you need this right now. You need to stop being annoying. People don't need to hear you complain. It's a bagel store. Go home. Yeah. Don't yell. Like, remember the little bagel guy?
Starting point is 01:02:19 Remember that guy that was in the bagel store? Oh, yeah, the little tiny guy. You don't know me, pal. It's like that guy had no chill. You're not my father. You're not my boss. you're not my boss! You're not my father, and you're not my boss! By the way, his life totally ruined because of the internet. Yeah. One video and everybody
Starting point is 01:02:31 hates him. Yeah. He hit a stroke. Oh, he did? Yeah. Did he die? He's either dead or worse. R.I.P. little bagel guy. Or worse, like he just can't do anything. Jesus. Yeah. He had a moment though, he had a quick moment where he was gonna fight Lenny Dykstra, but it didn't fall through. It quick moment where he was gonna fight Lenny Dykstra but it didn't fall through it fell through he was gonna fight Lenny Dykstra I mean how sad is that
Starting point is 01:02:49 was he he was gonna fight Lenny Dykstra one of those sad for Lenny nah but he's on his own path my guy yeah he's on that
Starting point is 01:02:56 same kind of what's going on yeah yeah well he wants you to lose your teeth yeah teeth are a thing teeth are
Starting point is 01:03:02 once you if you're a successful human and you lose your teeth now I'm not saying someone that lives uh that's having a tough time with their life lenny was a very wealthy dude and he lost his teeth if you lose your teeth with resources it's bad yeah he lost all his resources too i and i think they go one of these you think it was just all one big dental bill? Yeah, this guy went in. The guy was like, it's $187 million to fix your mouth. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Lenny's tough. It's tough. When you see those stories, the Antoine Walkers, the Lenny's, even Curt Schilling lost all his money. It's like, guys, how did you lose that money, dog? Well, I mean, dude, fucking Tyson talks about it on his podcast all the time. I think he enjoys it to say it but he's lost more money than anybody in the history of professional sports which kind of might be true because i think he says he lost a half a billion or something oh yeah but that's
Starting point is 01:03:54 it's impressive but but and when somebody goes how would you do that i gotta tell you something once you sit around a very wealthy person right once you see how they live it's the same thing with kanye when people are like whatever he's still rich it's like no no but their lifestyles are insane i think people are like what could that even mean it's like well that guy's private jetting all day every day to somewhere new right so in private jet alone if you're paying 20 grand an hour which is probably his he's probably taking super max you know the super jets 20 25 grand an hour an hour every single time you want to go somewhere plus the hotels and the crews that he brings and the people he employs he's probably spending 100 grand a day minimum minimum his expenses your expenses go up it's but it's through the it's but it's money loss that you
Starting point is 01:04:40 don't know gone when you know what i mean like you know those people are like uh um we saw like uh mark walberg had a house for his house one of his houses for sale and i was we were looking it was 41 million dollars or something like that and it was like what it would take to run the machine would make people head spin right just the just the insurance and property tax that's what i mean to run the machine to have humans that'll take care of it with you, the water bills, all that shit is hundreds of thousands of dollars a month.
Starting point is 01:05:11 And you're like, that's... And then you gotta pay the salaries of the people who do it. Yeah, that runs out, man. I think people think you can't get rid of that money.
Starting point is 01:05:18 You can because you live like a goof. But when you live on 60 grand a year working a regular job, you're like, how could they blow that? You're like, well, dude, you could because you live in a loop a year working a regular job you're like how could they blow that you're like well dude you could because you live you live in a loopy world where someone's like
Starting point is 01:05:29 yeah it's a 700 000 watch that's not crazy and everyone always expects you to pick up the check when you're at dinner like you can't just not pick up you have to buy the whole thing you have to buy all the things yeah like i went to dinner once with stamos and i it was just i knew i'm like you're picking up the check it was. It was like 14 people there too. You know, he probably is not crazy about that. Yeah, that's gotta be annoying.
Starting point is 01:05:50 Yeah, it's gotta be kind of annoying but you can't, but he can't as Stamos, you just can't do it. Have you ever picked up a check for him? No,
Starting point is 01:05:57 we haven't hung out like that many times. I would try, I would fake it. But you know, you can't because then it becomes a thing where everyone's like, Stamos made us split the check.
Starting point is 01:06:07 That's fucking crazy. See, I think it's cool. He should. Stamos, I know you're listening. Split it. Start making people split. Split it. But how about-
Starting point is 01:06:15 Stamos looked up in the bill and goes, I got this, you guys. Just Venmo me, will you? How funny. PayPal, do you have Zelle? Yeah. Zelle me. Or if he just goes, or when the check comes, he goes, yeah, we're going to 14. Wait, can we set?
Starting point is 01:06:26 If he just said that, yeah. When the server comes, goes, can I bring the bill? And he goes, yeah, yeah. They can all pay for the Zelle. Or if he goes, I got card, but you guys got cash? You want to kick in? Kick in. Giannis, I noticed that you had two bottles of wine with us, but you didn't want to pay
Starting point is 01:06:40 up a little bit? Wouldn't that be nice to see him do that to you? Yeah, that would be funny. Yeah. But that's one of the things why those people lose their money because everyone always expects them to pay and they almost feel like they have to
Starting point is 01:06:49 because if they don't, people are like, that's weird. Like, you're famous and rich. Do you ever feel like if someone says they notice you, do you feel like, like if you go to a restaurant
Starting point is 01:06:57 and someone knows who you are, do you feel like you have to tip a lot more money? Yes, yes. Yeah, you do. You know, it was weird. Someone, when did this

Starting point is 01:08:12 whoa Giannis Pappas where'd you play the Vulcan the Vulcan theater the Vulcan the two levels right that's the one I'm thinking of
Starting point is 01:08:20 yeah the Vulcan yeah it's like a music venue turned like everybody loves it now yeah I mean it's like well call Rogan. When the fuck is this comedy club opening?
Starting point is 01:08:26 Well, when that comedy club opens, Vulcan's going to take a little bit of a hit. It's going to be tough, huh? I'm sure Rogan's going around being like, everyone's going to be fine. It's like, no, they're not. Well, but also, that thing's been benefiting in Austin from the comedy boom, and I don't think there's- I mean, well, no, the sellers. I mean, the-
Starting point is 01:08:40 The Creek in the Cave. Creek in the Cave. I don't know why I said this. Creek in the Cave is out there. Yeah, everybody's been doing good Yeah and Rogan opens his club You know Maybe there's enough gravy

I think I want to see what that looks like in that city without – because what it used to be to me was kind of a – no offense, but it was just kind of like a quick stop city where I'd go do – No offense taken, yeah. Well, what's it called?
Starting point is 01:09:37 Cap City. Cap City. You know, it's like – that's not – it's gone, right? No, it's back. Oh, they opened it up again? It's back, yeah. Oh, yeah. That's all it was to me.
Starting point is 01:09:43 It was like go to Cap City, do the thing, and then get out as fast as you can. Mateo Lane was doing Cap City when I was doing Vulcan. Yay! Had to. I'm so sorry. He is. And I saw him on the plane, and he was in first class, and I was in coach. Yeah, what?
Starting point is 01:09:57 That was one of those things. That's a funny moment. That's a real funny moment. When you see someone you know? When you're walking in, and I'm in the last row because i booked my ticket real late and you know you almost want like you when i was walking by him i was trying to like part of my brain was going like should i try to explain this real quick what do you say what do you just want to get into like hey you like as you're walking my but hey man you know like i sometimes sit up there too you know i just wanted but you're
Starting point is 01:10:21 like you're just like you just take it you're like yeah man enjoy it and he had an uncomfortable look at his face because like we know each other and his career is you know going incredible so I just felt like it was a very funny moment
Starting point is 01:10:32 where I could read his expression he could read mine and we were both trying to it was like the elephant in the room that happens yeah he was
Starting point is 01:10:38 he was just he was like the first row first face I saw I'm all sweaty carrying bags long line you you know? Yeah, he was sipping on a tea already. Yeah, he had like a champagne.
Starting point is 01:10:48 Someone was toweling his neck a little bit. Yeah, no, I've had those moments. But I've been on both sides of the coin. He said something very funny, though. Have you seen that documentary about, what is it, Nixxiom, the cult? Oh, yeah. In Albany? Nixium the the cult oh yeah in albany yeah yeah so i was watching that like the day before so when i got off i was like talking about it like because he waited for me and we like walked a little bit and i was like it's crazy this guy was like branding these chicks
Starting point is 01:11:16 and he goes it was real funny he goes because it's true he goes jesus christ the things that straight guys got to go through to get some fucking pussy. It's ridiculous. You got to like join a cult. You got to like start a cult. Yeah. Maintain a cult. Yeah. It's like, it's kind of true.
Starting point is 01:11:31 You know what it is? If you're unattractive, I watched a documentary about that thing called One Taste. You know what? You should watch that one. The One Taste is crazy. It was like in Silicon Valley and it was led by this woman and she created this. Wow, a woman had a cult. Yeah, but it was all about making a woman orgasm. It was all about the woman. It was all about making a woman cum. It was nothing by this woman, and she created this. Wow, a woman had a cult. Yeah, but it was all about making a woman orgasm. It was all about the woman.
Starting point is 01:11:46 It was all about making a woman cum. It was nothing about men. Of course, men eventually joined. Then it became this twisted thing, and you should watch it. It's fucking insane. But what it really comes down to is when you go into these sexy cult things, this sexy branded thing where it's always about the root cause is always a sex thing, the guys are always, always hide hideous they're always ugly guys they're not one is a good looking guy never once
Starting point is 01:12:11 is there one looking good because a good looking guy knows better you don't need to do that but so what it is is it's not straight men need to go it's unfortunate looking men yeah they're out of options it's either they're going to shoot up a school right they're gonna get a prostitute or they gotta join a cult right and and and be a part of this thing yeah yeah yeah if you're ugly dude your options are limited yeah and i'm not saying i'm fucking brad pitt but i'm lucky enough where i'm like you see the guys in these documentaries they're always unfortunate looking men and you're like straight men yeah always straight because the gay ones there's ugly gay guys are fine there's always a gay that's into that type of gay. Of course.
Starting point is 01:12:47 They have like these sub- There's a section, yeah. Yeah, fetishes and like, oh, he's a bear. And you're like, he's a fat- And in the straight world, you're like, he's just a fat guy. So he's a lazy fat guy, yeah. But in the gay world, they're like, oh, he's a bear. I love that.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Yeah. And I'd say- He's blind, blind bear. Yeah, he's a blind bear. He's a one-eyed blind bear. Yeah. Gay guys fuck, man. They-
Starting point is 01:13:04 Yeah, they're pump machines. They're men. They're just men. They're just good old-fashioned men without restrictions. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, every one of these documentaries, I recommend people watching the One Taste. I forget what it's called, but Google One Taste and you'll find out. And this woman, man, she was fucking evil, man, the way she manipulated these people and promoted violence.
Starting point is 01:13:24 Why do people fall for manipulation so easily why are why are why are sometimes the worst people so fucking charming well here so they're so you know i'm talking about yeah of course but she was no exception right like this woman was so good at what many of these leaders are at making you feel comfortable they're usually good looking mirror you yeah they're usually good looking enough where you trust them because let's say we can pretend that it's not real but society we always deem good looking people as higher than we listen to them like they know more than us we you know you handsome and pretty people, we will always assume that they're better than us in some way. Like they know more.
Starting point is 01:14:10 God fucked that up. God fucked that up. Don't you think God fucked that up? Because like, yeah, we're attracted to just facial symmetry and like very superficial things. We're all hardwired for that. That's not great for our species. That's not great for our species. Uh-uh. That's not great for evolution.
Starting point is 01:14:27 Uh-uh. Why are we not totally turned on by when a woman starts just fucking, just routing off math equations and science facts? How come that doesn't get me a stiffy? Because we're still animals. Yeah. We want to know that you can help, and they want to know that you can save. Well, that's bad.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Well, dude, we haven't evolved. You think about this. We're not that old. Yeah. As a species, we're not that old. Do you think one day it'll be like that instead of like going like- I think in a million years, yeah, it'll be all about something else. Guys will consider being like, look at those tits.
Starting point is 01:14:56 You'll be like, God, man, you got to really have a convo with this girl. Have you spoken to this woman? Have you spoken to her? Jesus Christ. We won't have bodies by then. We'll be floating entities. Yeah. We'll be just- we'll be cells with some kind of figure, but it'll be shrouded. We won't have bodies by then. We'll be floating entities. Yeah. We'll be just, we'll be, we'll be,
Starting point is 01:15:05 we'll be just, we'll be cells with some kind of figure but it'll be shrouded so we won't get to judge so you just pair with the thing that works the best with you. It's gonna be sad. You think it's gonna be sad?
Starting point is 01:15:14 Yeah, it's gonna be sad. We're in the fun stage. It's the infancy of humans but it's also gonna be, it's, I don't think it gets better. I think,
Starting point is 01:15:21 I think we're in the nugget. Would you upload your consciousness to the metaverse for eternity? No, no thanks. No? No, because I'm out of here. I want to be out of here when I'm out of here. Yeah. I think we're in the nugget. Would you upload your consciousness to the metaverse for eternity? No, thanks. No? No, because I want to be out of here when I'm out of here. When I'm done, I want to be done. When my time calls, thank you, it was good. That's it. You're not greedy. I like that. My dad said that towards the end of his life. He goes, I'm not a pig. He said, I loved it. He goes, I'm not a pig. He says, I did everything I wanted to do. I lived. I'm not a pig. I says, I did everything I wanted to do. I lived. I'm not a pig.
Starting point is 01:15:46 I'm not greedy. I got it. He got it. Well, I don't need you to write about me. I don't need you to talk about me. It's okay. It was fun. I had a good time. And I truly mean it.
Starting point is 01:15:56 I guess maybe it is also maybe a little bit of enlightenment that I've gotten older just being like, I just want to enjoy it. And then that's it. Are you enjoying it? I am to a degree I mean it's overwhelming Because I'm in the middle of it Yeah You know
