Starting point is 00:00:00 It's Showtime. He's taking down the other podcast one by one. And clip is why people make fun of you. This is all of this for the radio. And why Mike? We want business to take care of. Who are these social? These number one podcasts on the Internet today. Who are you, A-B-S?
Starting point is 00:00:36 Welcome to get another episode of Who Are These Socials? The show thousands of people come to to learn the age old question. What's the deal with social media? If you can find a show that knows more about social media, we'll sign up for the sit-down zoom-ok Patreon. I'm your host, Carl Hamburger. With me, as always, is Mike Geary, aka Blind Mike. What's up, Mike?
Starting point is 00:00:57 It's just two young hip guys talking social media. Yeah. We're just a couple of TikTokiktokers. Talk about what's up. Some people are saying that I won't read super chats and to those people I say go eat a baloney sandwich because I will read every super chat that people put in the chat. All right, I'm calling my shot right now. My hand since like we are doing super chats chats if you guys feel like you want to donate Carl is gonna send the money to me and I'm I run a blind charity. So I'm just feel free to send Money the
Starting point is 00:01:34 God dammit, please don't look into that any one Do that here negative reporters that are Jewels David sent to 99 cents super sticker. Thank you Jewels David. So here's our show Mike after many months of discussing this here we are Are you kidding? What a tease if everyone's been on the edge of their seat I know people are like how do I get through another day without who are these socials? People know It's pretty well known fact. I'm not a fan of social media, but it's so popular, even though it's more harmful
Starting point is 00:02:09 and addictive than cigarettes. And it's never even suggested that we ban it. So there's something to this thing, right? It's never even up for debate. Like, hey, should we get rid of social media? Like kids are killing themselves. Like, no, I think it's the biggest plague on society today. And I'm on it. So I think that, and I'm still on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:02:32 I'm addicted to Twitter. Yeah, I'm addicted to Twitter. So I know, exactly. I hate social media. It's like, Crow, weren't you tweeting three times before you got on a bad, yes, I was. So please watch our test show. It's gonna be live on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Exactly. All right, 499 for the Buying Cocaine Fund. Thank you, Zero Dark Tony. Much appreciated. So Mike, I know you kind of on a podcast level. We're not like real friends in IRL, as they would say, I don't know you personally. I assume that you have a hot girlfriend,
Starting point is 00:03:06 and my guess is that you also assume you have a hot girlfriend. People gave me shit. What do you put up my show before? And I do this thing, I don't know if it's a Freudian thing. I do this thing where I'm like, did you see this? Hey Mike, did you see this video? Hey Mike, did you, and I don't know why I keep saying that. People were giving me shit over and over.
Starting point is 00:03:22 I'll tell you what, I'm actually more annoyed at the people that call you out for that. That's a natural turn of phrase, but I have to deal with every asshole if I say like, hey, I saw this movie. Oh, did you? Did you? Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Thank you. Thank you, because that is exactly. You understand what I'm getting at there when I say did you see this? Has this passed by this? It's across my radar. Yeah, exactly. That's the point that I'm trying to make.
Starting point is 00:03:46 So I want to say, I really hope this show goes well because I am definitely going to say things that will ensure I never go back into digital marketing ever again. Because I can't stand it from the client. I'd be like, well, you got to be on TikTok with these videos. That's where we're going to make the most impact
Starting point is 00:04:03 with your marketing dollars. For anyone that listens to my show that doesn't know Carl and you didn't know, he had a marketing background. I mean, just look at the name and logo of this podcast and you can probably see marketing genius. I whipped up a pretty sweet logo for us. So one of the things that I'm planning on doing today is asking for help. If there's a designer out there who wants to go up with a better logo for us, no one understands the name and it looks like we're promoting a VH1 game show. Let me flash it up on the screen here.
Starting point is 00:04:34 This is what we're dealing with. I used HotPink for the ladders and put that on something you can easily find with a Google image search. So not great, not the best. That's for sure. But my argument was, who are these podcasts? It doesn't make any sense either. You know, people get used to it.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Of course. Of course, that's the joke. Yeah, we're making fun of the idea of names. You know, right. Exactly. Just names in general. Aren't they stupid? Yeah. What's the deal? All right, let's? Right. Exactly. Just names in general. Aren't they stupid? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:06 What's the deal? All right, let's get right into it. We have a lot of socials to share with everybody. And I want to start with this one. This is from our friends over at the the Libs of Tic Tac, I believe. Oh, yeah. And can I just say real quick, just anyone? I'm just anyone because I know there was like confusion over what the show is.
Starting point is 00:05:24 You'll figure it out by the end of the episode. We've done a horrible job explaining it, but I feel like you'll get it pretty quickly. Pretty much based on this clip, you'll understand it. Yeah, honestly, I didn't know what this was until Mike and I had a conversation this afternoon, but okay, yeah, all right, cool, now I got it. So yeah, if you're confused,
Starting point is 00:05:39 then you should be, because we're all a little confused, by the side, here we go, let's check this out. This is interesting. This is some woman talk on doing a tic-tac here Controversial opinion, but if you have a token white and you're hanging out with your friend group of color You need to ask permission from everybody in the group to bring your white friend Like don't just bring them ask Ask for explicit permission from everyone. Because just because you're comfortable with them, doesn't mean that everybody's comfortable with them. I might not be in the mood to deal with white shenanigans that day.
Starting point is 00:06:13 That's all I'm saying. In another thing, it feeds into their ego. Like don't let them think they're a good white person. Don't give them that card to use against other people. Please. Okay, first off, what race is this woman? That was my first whether she Asian. I don't think anyone's any race anymore
Starting point is 00:06:31 other than whites, everyone's whatever they want to be. Is that what it is? Because it sounds like this is like a black woman would be saying something like this, but I can't even tell. I think she's on the right track, but she's not really going far enough. I say we round up whites and put them
Starting point is 00:06:46 in a concentrated area, maybe like a camp or something. Like I think that's the step we need to make because she's not going far enough. Like no one's gonna follow these lazy orders. I agree, especially if your white friend is Chad Zumak or Trucker Andy, you gotta ask permission from your friend group. You're right.
Starting point is 00:07:03 So but Mike, seriously though, should we just go back to segregation? Yes. Okay, we're all on the same page. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that.
Starting point is 00:07:12 We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that.
Starting point is 00:07:20 We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. We're on the same page, that. You know, you go on black Twitter and I'll go on white Twitter and we'll just have ourselves a time. This is the one of the things I do want to find a lot of. So, like, submit away if you know any of this, like, you know, lives of TikTok type stuff. But here's the problem.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Is like our society now is so ridiculous that I can't tell what's real anymore. Like, I don't know who's trolling me. I don't know who's trolling me. I don't know who's doing a bit. Like it's very hard to tell. Is this lady, does this lady know that she sounds ridiculous and trying to profit often? Or are we that insane, like as a cult?
Starting point is 00:07:55 The only thing I know for sure is that yay loves Hitler. That's how it is a lot about him. What's not exaggerating? It's usually the thing I know for sureating. I'm okay with this whole idea of segregating the internet as long as it's not porn sites. Because I'm a like, I don't want to look at flat asses for the rest of my life. Right? That would be fucked up. I mean porn has always been like the most inclusive, like they'll still establish race, trans, get anything you want you can find in porn. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Well, that's what I'm worried about though with this whole segregation movement. Based on some of the language, I feel like we're all right. All right, good. All right. Well, if that's out of fence of enough, let's head down to Brazil. And this is, is this like Brazil's got talent or something? So this one I played on my show a week or two ago. And yeah, it's, it's Brazil's got talent
Starting point is 00:08:50 or something adjacent to that. And they have decided like, you know, who would be a real treat. Like we need, we've seen a lot of different communities thrive in this world, but we've yet to see a deaf mute trans singer defy the odds and entertain the masses. This is literally a person who is deaf, is a mute and is trans.
Starting point is 00:09:17 I want to be clear to my disabled brothers here, I'm not making fun of this deaf mute trans person. I am making fun of the audience that is pretending Mrs. I mean that we'll just watch the reaction. It's despicable what they do to this poor person. Okay, so this is I came out of introduced this or not, but this person is going to attempt to sing Whitney Houston's I will always love you Brazilian deaf mute trans woman sings Whitney Houston I will always love you. Brazilian death neutrons women sings Whitney Houston. I will always love you. I think this is the video of a dog looking at itself from there.
Starting point is 00:10:01 We want the stinger. No, I'm sorry. No, actually I'm looking at it is this is What it is you know, it's a good thing that when a Houston was a crackhead who died young or she could sue the entire country Brazil for calling this her song See here's some giggles there? There are few left. Bob Johnson wrote isotopes practice. Go fuck yourself, Bob Johnson. That is not cool. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:10:42 Not to make the same joke that you did, but this reminds me of my buddy Doug who made, by the way, I should mention the Jingles apartment Doug and Jen collaborated on our theme song that you heard. It's also I think it's up music. Thank you to Doug and Jen. But Doug turned me on to some of these metal bands and have a dog for a lead singer. And just growl and bark.
Starting point is 00:11:04 I mean, this is pretty much the equivalent. That's what it sounds like. And again, it's not like, that's what this person should sound like. But there should never be a situation where someone signs to them or whatever they do and says like, you know, you have, I don't know what it is, but you've got it. Ha ha ha on sting. Yeah, it's a little
Starting point is 00:11:27 exploitive. And I'm all for goofing on deaf mute trans people, but this is blatant. You know, it's a little over the top. If you ask me, by the end of it, like, people are weeping with joy, like the crowd is going wild. And I'm like, that's mean to do. I mean, I can't listen to the whole thing. Let's get to the end of this. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh? People are like, what's going on here? Yeah, it's like, well, she can't hear us. We can get away with this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:23 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You think that her sickle gets flooded. You should see what happens when she takes her pants off. That's where the real laughter comes in. That's splendid. Holy shit, what is going on? Wow. So like that's my thing with social media in general is like, we are way too extreme in every direction. Like I think social media can be used for,
Starting point is 00:12:43 like if you learn how to do it, maybe younger generations will have a better grasp on it than we do because they were born with it. But like we are teaching people to be extreme in every direction. So like this is either it's amazing and you'll plot it or your cuts like us that are making fun of it. You know, I think it's mostly cuts like us. Yeah. I'm not going to pretend that we're like, hey, look at us, we're at you over here. That's fair. Yeah, but still, listen, I enjoy it. All right, let's be ready to move on to the next one.
Starting point is 00:13:14 I am. I want to imagine something. This is going to seem a little bit directionless, like we're just going through and laughing at the internet. Right. Eventually, we might even have some structure to this show. This one's going to be pretty loose, but we plan on some straw. We have segment ideas that aren't fully formed yet and things like that.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Once we find, well, here's the thing. My thing, one of the things I love about WATP is that you guys follow specific characters and things like that. like obviously Stuttering John, Chad Zumak, OP, Patrick Michael, and I would like to find some of those people that are on social media worth following. And I have a few that I would want to follow, but I'd really like some suggestions
Starting point is 00:14:00 because you guys might be more familiar with like TikTok and stuff than I am. Yeah, but that would be helpful. There is a guy that I think is a candidate. As far as volume, I don't know if he's going to give us the volume of content that say a stuttering John does, but he is as big of a douche probably. All right, now is that person this Darren Reveil? Darren Reveil, yes.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Okay, so if you don't know him, you're going to explain this one to me. Yeah, so if you don't know him, he was the business guy, like the sports business guy who worked at ESPN for a long time. I don't know where he works now, but like he is essentially,
Starting point is 00:14:39 the business of sports is what he reports on. Okay. But he is also very, like he's an idiot. What an exciting topic that is. What are they talking about? Contra negotiations and shit. Yeah, right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:51 LeBron signed with Nike again or something. Yeah, it's fun. It's a fun business. But he on Twitter, people have found is a bit of a hard-o. And as hard-o's often are, he can be very sensitive. So. Hold on a second. you have to explain this to me. I'm a little bit older than you Mike. So sometimes you have to slow it out for grandpa.
Starting point is 00:15:10 I'm sorry. He's a bit of a hard. Yeah, he's like a guy that like kind of lives in his glory days. You know what I mean? Like kind of like Chad Zuma. Okay. Zuma. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:23 We'll be popular in high school. Okay. I get it now hard one. Oh, okay. Zumaq, I got it. Okay. Does that make sense? We'll be popular in high school. Okay, I got it now. Yes, there we go. Yeah, so some of the bar stool guys have made fun of him over the years. And so that's kind of how I got aware to his sensitivity on social media. And last week, Reveil got duped, was trending across the across the nation okay because i know did you see that drew breeze video by chance i did not
Starting point is 00:15:50 there's some video where uh... drew breeze was struck by lightning and it was made to look like it was real uh... it was what's the point is obviously it was always it was some promotional thing that he was doing uh... and it was made promotional thing that he was doing. And it was made to look real to get people talking. Now most people knew that if Drew Brees was struck by lightning, the news probably would have picked up on it. Right.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Before videos are being tweeted out. But people like Darren Reveil bought it or he would tell you he didn't because big cat Dan Kats of Barstle Sports tweeted out that he knew immediately that it was fake and Darren Reveille replied to that and said really why are you just tweeting about it now that okay Dan was like uh hey man I'm sorry you got fooled by it to which Reveille replied I didn't get fooled I'm sorry, you got fooled by it to which Reveille replied, I didn't get fooled. And then everyone started tweeting Reveille God dupt, hashtag Reveille God dupt at this guy.
Starting point is 00:16:58 So this video after that or before that, so to prove he's not sensitive about any of this. Okay. Now we're up to speed. He's not sensitive about any of this after After a couple hours of beating on the internet, this is the video he made. And you can tell he's really not upset. Okay, good. I like it. So again, the Zoom Mac, I don't care approach.
Starting point is 00:17:16 Exactly. I don't care so much. Here's a video that I'll be tweeting out about. I'm sorry, yeah. Emergency press conference. Emergency press conference. Emergency press conference. I was so upset when I saw that Drew Brees got struck by lightning in Venezuela. I called his agent. I called everyone I knew at the NFL.
Starting point is 00:17:36 I called the gambling company. I just couldn't believe that someone would put him in such danger that he would stand in that lightning, that he would get get hit that they put cameras out there. I am just more upset about this than. So this is him saying everything that he believed was true. Right. Pretending he's in the whole time. Oh, as if I would believe that. Yeah. He's not helping his case. It's like, yeah, these are all the reasons why you should have thought that was fake, Duffy. It's like, yeah, these are all the reasons why you should have thought that was fake, Davi. We're cameras out there. I am just more upset about this than Port noise gambling losses. I am so out of Port noise for making fun of them.
Starting point is 00:18:12 That's a guy who's not upset who's insulting the people who are making fun of them. That's how you know he's not upset, right? Really, really upsetting to me. How am I going to move on? I don't believe Drew breeze. I think he really was hit by lightning. And this is going to ruin my day. Emergence even. So as you can tell he's very upset. Now I sent that because it happened much more recently than the video I'm about to show you. Okay. But also because it I think it shows how easy it is to rattle this fucker's cage. So if you want to get Darren Revelle riled up, follow him on Twitter. But my first real interest in Darren Revelle and we talked about this. I'm the Kirk Minahan show at
Starting point is 00:19:00 the time. I believe that's where it got brought up first to me, was last Martin Luther King Day, I think. Okay. Darren Vell tweeted something about how much he loves Martin Luther King, like way more than the rest of us, which is kind of a weird move, so people just started like, what are you doing dude? Like calling them out for that. Plus, no offense to Darren, but I love MLK way more than he could possibly love
Starting point is 00:19:30 So People like just started fucking around with a column of racist and things That's a fun response to that So so this video again much like he proved to us, this is a way better video, by the way, but much to much in the way that he proved to us, he wasn't upset about the Drew Breast thing. He's going to prove to us how not racist he is here. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:54 I always like to prove you're not racist. That always goes a while. It's pointed to the fan base. So everybody can get on the same page. Sure, I have over nine MLK signed items. I am. Hold on a second. You're over nine.
Starting point is 00:20:13 So 10. Over nine. I lost count of round eights. But I thought there's a few more. I'll tell you when it got to eight, I started struggling. I know I got a ninth. I can't confirm after that. So it's collecting autographs, all right, whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Well, no, that's where we're going, Carl. So you're going to find that he has one of the great while some people collect, you know, baseball cards, beanie babies, we're all the crays for a while. He has been collecting black people merch, which definitely not racist. Along this fan of what he's done, and over the last seven years, I've collected a lot of things. It's not only MLK, it's a lot of black history. I own a Rosa Parks signed. I thought I was gonna say Jersey Right car. Yeah, there was a box Jersey
Starting point is 00:21:08 What position is like a Mexican game-worn Jersey. Yeah, she was up back in the boss was her possession That was it was a pretty good spot fire and WCP card so it was pretty shocking today how I was called racist When when I am a black people saying love for a black history. And it was, I never expected the reaction that I got today. Hmm. I got to go, hmm.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Yeah. I love it. It goes, I'm going to be racist. I love black history. I also watch black movies. You know, it's like Well, that has nothing to do with all right sure look at all the things of black people I owe yeah And I've set a price to I don't I don't want to brag or anything But I have a tray white bills jersey that I like to wear it proves that I'm obviously not racist. Yeah, I have Harriet Tubman's cleats
Starting point is 00:22:01 I'm obviously not racist. Yeah, I have Harriet Tubman's cleats. Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry if people think that a white man can't enjoy black history. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I really am.
Starting point is 00:22:17 I'm sorry if people think. Is that how you're supposed to enjoy black history? Yeah. Carl, I'm going to take the matter of thinking he's even sorry. I know he's saying. But I have a feeling he's not sorry. That a white man can't love Martin Luther King. But to me, that seems pretty counterintuitive.
Starting point is 00:22:42 You got me? Yeah. Hey, phone, phone, you have a stop. Well, that case has been settled. Yeah, so that was my submission. No further questions. So that's my submission. We'll have to get him to break every once in a while, so we'll have to put in a little elbow grease
Starting point is 00:22:59 if we're going to follow Darren Revelle, but he is, once you break him, he's a pretty easy target. Yeah, it seems like it. All right, that's a guy I'd never heard of before. So thank you for introducing me. Oh, my pleasure. To Darren, that's... All right, we're gonna switch gears.
Starting point is 00:23:15 One of the things that's happening on social media here, Mike, is the Deepfake. Yes. You know, the South Park guys have that brilliant video where they use Trump's face as likeness with a totally different voice. Yeah, and you know, a bunch of other celebrities and the whole point is that it's very difficult to tell who what's real and what's not? They wanted to make a movie out of it. They wanted to make a movie with that, right?
Starting point is 00:23:40 Oh, I don't know. I don't know what the backstory is on that. I think the South Park guy said they wanted to make a Trump movie where it's essentially a guy like using that sort of technology or something. It's a guy that looks exactly like Trump, living in a world where everyone hates Trump. I can see that. I think that was the idea.
Starting point is 00:23:59 I can see that. All right, that makes sense. All right, so I am going to play this. Now, this is Joe Rogan deep fake, but what's different about this is that it's not a video deep fake, it's an audio deep fake. According to Mike, who found this clip. I mean, I'll let you all judge
Starting point is 00:24:19 what you think is going on here. It would like literally hundreds of babies. They round them all up with like some sort of giant net thing It's crazy grind them down into a supplement. Yeah, I take that shit every day feels amazing Damn, we pull that shit up. It's called baby max or something All right, you ready for me to blow your mind right now Mike something that you probably don't know Okay, that is not a deep fake What Joe Rogan has been a part of QAnon.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Oh, no. Yeah, this is, QAnon is all real. I'm Joe Rogan is part of the Aluminati. And he is crushing down babies. Why do you think he's so popular? I was just listening to his episode. This puts a whole different slant on him. Do you think he's good at his job?
Starting point is 00:25:00 Is that why you think he can go listen to his show? No, it's because he's eating babies. That's the reason for it. Well, the reason I sent that one is, A, I think it's hilarious to say, to hear Joe Rogan say he's eating babies. But also the idea that, and there were those Tom Cruise videos going around.
Starting point is 00:25:17 That's fantastic. It was like Tom Cruise. So the more that shit comes along, like I was saying about that girl on Lives of tiktok I'm gonna have no idea what the fuck is real in like three years who said who actually said anything it's gonna be chaos on the internet if we don't figure this shit out will that be better for our lives because honestly if we just ignore everything and expect who knows what's real and what's not real
Starting point is 00:25:42 when that make like easier see there is no news Exactly like I think there's a ward you cried right now. I think I'll miss this makeup I've seen no evidence. Yeah, we saw YouTube. What's going on? Useful rooster five bucks and I've been missing a lot of these we'll get back and read them But I just one caught my eye. Here's to the please don't throw a music special for Christmas this year, fun. All right, go fuck yourself. I named that episode the last ever music special. All right, is this a nice,
Starting point is 00:26:18 nice thing what are we talking about? Well, I put out an episode around the holidays one year where I just played a bunch of my old songs that I'd written and recorded and I called it. Oh, what a. The very last one I knew this was about show. Yeah. Folks, in this next one, I think you're really gonna love it.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Yeah, that's literally what I did. I played FM DJ, I have to do DJ, just like, all right, all the bass on this one is, yeah, if you want to. I like a guy that's usually making fun of other people's podcasts, making you sit through him singing. Yeah. If you want to really dislike me and end the show, go back and check out that episode.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Oh, excellent. Of who are these podcasts? All right, the next one that I have pulled up for us here is a Ruth Kanda. Yeah, so you didn't, we were talking before. You weren't familiar with this trend? Well, I didn't know what it was called. Yeah, you knew what I'd say. But I'm familiar with this trend? Well, I didn't know what it was called. Yeah, you knew what I wanted to say. But I'm familiar with this trend, yes.
Starting point is 00:27:07 So for anyone else that doesn't know you, if you remember the tweed when Ruth Bader Ginsburg died, you can't remember who it was. But someone online said that their five-year-old ran into the room and said something poignant about Ruth Bader Ginsburg and then said, Ruth Konda forever. And I just remember the tweet ended with,
Starting point is 00:27:26 now that's a cultural clash I can get behind. And so KFC from Barstle actually branded those the Ruth Kondo Awards because it became a real trend on the internet, like Eric Swalwell is a great one. Yes. Where if you follow Eric Swalwell on Twitter, we were talking about one of his tweets one day where he was walking through the capital building and some, you know, mag a supporter took his son aside and said, hey, watch out for that guy. That's Swalwell.
Starting point is 00:27:55 He's trouble. He's trouble. He's a real badass around DC. He's fucking Bruce Wayne walking through Gotham City. So that's one of my favorite trends on the internet. And then there was some on the other day who give a pretty good example of an audio version of Ruth Konda, which is actually pretty rare that's usually on Twitter. So this is one on Twitter and this is coming in from Catherine Clark who's the house minority whip elect And a very short clip here, but let's see let's see what her kid came to her and sad But they've also given us a model to become our own leaders and Let me tell you what it means to to me coming in as a different generation.
Starting point is 00:28:45 I remember my middle child waking up with nightmares over concern around climate change. Okay. You're right. So here's my question on this one. What would a nightmare about climate change even look like? What would be there? They're like, oh my God, I just had a dream that we, we skeed fewer times last year than we did the previous years. It was terrifying. It was warmer.
Starting point is 00:29:16 I went to school in November and didn't bring a coat with me. It was so terrifying. Bob, please tell me it's just a dream. Settle my character here. It reminded me of the Nor McDonnell bit where he's talking about people who say they're afraid of North Korea. And he goes, do you ever wake up in the middle of the night? Ah! North Korea!
Starting point is 00:29:33 Right. At least North Korea with a nuke and a missile. Like there's something to be afraid of. I don't understand what a nightmare about climate change would even be unless I have to fucking hear about it every goddamn day for the rest of my life. Exactly. What are you doing to this child?
Starting point is 00:29:50 Get in the middle of the night, they're thinking about climate change. Oh, God. And I do appreciate the balls on these people to think they're gonna solve a problem like that. Right. So you gotta be holy, she gotta be pretty impressed with yourself to think of that. Right. You gotta be holy she got to be pretty impressed with yourself to think of that's your that's what you're gonna pull off in life. Oh well they're nine year old scared let's
Starting point is 00:30:12 get to work. Let's do it. So obviously I mentioned this earlier. Yay went on the Alex Jones show. I hadn't heard about it. Yeah well he talked a lot about his appreciation for the Nazis and Hitler specifically. Sure. And a lot of people were concerned about that. Not everyone though. Mixed reviews. Mixed reviews on that one. As you're going to see in this next clip, and I'm not even sure what's going on here. There's a number of black gentlemen, one of them has a microphone. I Suspect they are members of the black is real I believe so it seems like that Yeah, and those people tend to be vocal they don't they hang out in three corners and They get their opinions out they get their opinions out and they're having a back and forth with a white gentleman
Starting point is 00:31:00 Who doesn't agree with everything that they're saying? Just just a fun clip all all around and I have to thank you for finding this one. Uh oh, it's saying something went wrong. Give me a second here. Oh God. Oh God. I'm running things a little differently on the show
Starting point is 00:31:17 than I normally would. So. We don't have producer Chris here. Producer Chris is not here. Yeah. And by the way, just so everyone knows what producer Chris's role is, is that well, I'm fucking around with shit, he says something funny,
Starting point is 00:31:29 and then he don't realize that I'm messing up. That's, here's a little story to endear myself to the audience here. I'm doing WATP one week. And Carl gets up and goes to the bathroom or something, so just me and Chris are talking. And I ask him a technical question about goes to the bathroom or something. So it's me and Chris are talking. And I ask him a technical question about like uploading the podcast or something.
Starting point is 00:31:49 And he goes, oh, I don't know what any of this does. So fun fact story, I'm producer Chris. I gave him that name as a goof. Kind of like how Dick Masterson has a wife coach, who's like a fat slob. It's just a funny thing to say. Yeah, like blind Mike, like I can see perfectly. But you know, I'm gonna ask you where you were. What's your take on this TV wander controversy? Cause there's a lot of people who think you can see.
Starting point is 00:32:17 I've seen the Mike stand cast video. Yes. And that is, I could see myself doing that. Like, if you know that it fell or something, just throwing your hand out on instinct, but maybe my favorite story ever, Shaq was on like one of the late night show, Kimmel or Fowler or something. Yeah. And he said he lived in Stevie Wonder's building.
Starting point is 00:32:41 And one day Stevie's walking out of the building and Shaq is walking in or or Stevie's in the elevator actually and Shaq gets in the elevator and doesn't say a word and Stevie wonder goes what's up Shaq? Mm-hmm. I mean come on. So what's your take on that's that suspicious. That's very suspicious. But I think he's pulled it off so well that if that's the one story, like give it to him. You know what I mean? Like if he pulled off blind that well for 70 years or whatever it's been. Well, you could say that, but then I don't know what to think because, you know, I make
Starting point is 00:33:18 it fun of flat earthers all this time. And then what if it turns out that that's correct to? I mean, it looked like a fool over here. I think the third is a rat. That's this one we're proving today called nothing is real. No, no, no, no, no, the show. So he produces the news and he produces our intros. And so he actually does produce stuff just during the show. I kind of run the show. Derek. I don't want to like totally just miss.
Starting point is 00:33:53 I mean, he's playing point with me. Yeah, I mean, no, he wasn't. He doesn't know. He doesn't know the episodes. I do all of this shit, but I'll say he does produce certain things, certain seconds. Gotcha. And thanks for that. Let's get to the black Israelite here.
Starting point is 00:34:05 They're always fun. We're transitioning. Why don't I feel good about my money? You don't think that was the best cycle I could have done, Mike? All right, let's get to the black Israelite. So Mike, a guy who has actual radio experience, I'm looking forward to the next. No, but you give me after this. Can't wait to see what I can do.
Starting point is 00:34:23 I think I was on late night on E.I. once. Okay. No, didn't you work for a radio station? Yeah, I worked, but I worked, I was the lowest level. I worked in promotions, which is maybe the shittiest job on the planet. Oh, you're the guy who has to go to the bars and like hand out people. Yeah, and say, here's a coupzy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Oh, brutal. Okay, yeah. All right, I wouldn't say I worked for a radio station either, then. It's one the right yeah Well, that's a great question just why don't you feel good about what Kyrie and you are saying Not only do we disagree with you we can't even fathom why you would have an issue with this. What's your beef fella? What about guy, why don't you have a whizrish? And he's crazy, he's a half Jewish.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Yes, and he's crazy. He's disgusting. By the way, is anyone half Jewish? Is that a thing? No, I mean, come on. I think if your mom is Jewish, then you're Jewish. That's what they say. Yeah, half Jewish.
Starting point is 00:35:20 You're Jewish, you can go fuck yourself. I'm 16th Jewish, all right? I'm saying theth Jewish, all right He's in stun display Sir he goes well look the crazy thing the yes I was a supportive the Nazis and he likes it. We're like yeah, what's crazy about that? What's your problem here? He's like he wasn't ready for that response Like oh shit. Okay, I like that. He's like all of you And like one guy raised his hands like actually. I'm not quite sure I'm convinced The the blackout the microphone though. I thought Patrice on Neil was dead. This guy's got some fucking edgy jokes out here
Starting point is 00:36:02 except for your other set. It's a heart of minions. I hit the low who the real juice was. Right? He was the person my people. He was coming for your next. Hold on a second. Sure. Is this guy think that Hitler liked black people?
Starting point is 00:36:15 Is that what he thinks? Now I'm no history though. The funny thing is, Mike, no matter how World War Two would have turned out, I'd be fine. I Was gonna be okay either way Handsome Aryan man All these battles Kanye, Kari, shaking things up is because it's a great awakening happening We're Jews hell yeah, I'm convinced now
Starting point is 00:36:57 Did the whole That's the mic drop moment right there the Holocaust happened. Yeah, of course. It wasn't that awesome You hear in the guys voice he's like damn it Right yeah, I was gonna try to make you look like a fool, but that's a pretty good comeback to that one Imagine being this guy's buddy, and you're just trying to like get. And he's like, no, no, no, I'm gonna teach these black fellows a lesson about. I see a bunch of stuff over here. Let me drop some knowledge bombs.
Starting point is 00:37:33 I'm in trouble. We're not gonna change their minds. By the way, is it a kind of funny that they never did lock up any Germans in the US? Like, Germans were never sent to camps in the US. All of the Japanese. That is funny. You think there was a conversation that they never did lock up any Germans in the U.S. like, Germans were never sent to camps in the U.S. all of the Japanese. That is funny. You think there was a conversation that was like,
Starting point is 00:37:48 all right, so who's the enemy? Well, it's the Italians, the Germans, and the Japanese. Yeah, let's lock up that last one, you sad. Yeah, that one's a, I mean, it's gonna be a problem. Tell the Italians and Germans would have been a little tumbled and covered in a different shape. Like, the Japanese will be easier.
Starting point is 00:38:03 That'll be a lot of, a lot of, a lot easier for all of us I love some of the comments in here The first one is thank god they can't be racist could you imagine would be saying if they could And my favorite one here is roof Koreans are licking their chops right now Roof kra anyway, that's not fun. That's not funny, Mike. No, there's nothing funny about racial humor.
Starting point is 00:38:27 I'm not laughing at that in any single way. All right, here's a segment that I want to do on the show. I hate Facebook. I think Facebook is the most annoying of all the social media networks. And the reason why is because everyone's depressing on there. And maybe it's just my feed So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna start looking at my Facebook feed so they haven't done in years and years Just to let you guys know what I see when I go to Facebook and if I'm seeing different shit than everyone else
Starting point is 00:38:57 Then please let me know maybe I need to get new friends and family, which is very possible I just expect it's pretty common, because I got off Facebook, because when I start when I was in high school in college, it was just dumb kids posting rap lyrics and TV quotes. And then one day it became, I remember when it pivoted, when there was a kid in my high school who I never knew his political opinion on anything. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Virtually yelling at my friend on Facebook about some half-assed political take that he had. And I was like, oh, okay, this is not a fun place anymore. Oh, the politics are the worst. But let me just give you some highlights when I was looking through my Facebook feed earlier today of what I saw. My friend, Cedric's cat died.
Starting point is 00:39:44 And he wants his, and he's been a photo of the cat, and he says he hopes that his cat finds his sister. Yeah, that's important that we all treat pets like human beings. I think it's a good roadward going down that like people call themselves dog moms and act like they have children. I think that's very healthy. So I lost the cat last year, and it was a very depressing day at my house. And the last thing I wanted to do was share that with the world. I'm going to say if the cat just died, that's not as bad as someone that posts what's been eight years. Yeah, snowflake left us. Can you believe it's been seven months, three weeks and two days to the day that's still
Starting point is 00:40:26 played locked us? Someone in my family was at an arts and crafts event in an elementary school in a gymnasium, which is already depressing. And this person in my family was the only person wearing a cloth mask. And she was taking photos of this. I don't know what the point of that was.
Starting point is 00:40:46 We're still doing that. I saw something the other day, we're like on Twitter or something. Some politician was getting shit because in one place, she did wear a mask and in one place, she did. It's like, we've all kind of moved on. We've all moved on.
Starting point is 00:40:58 It's yeah. Well, you fooled us for two years and now we're done. Yeah, right, exactly. The jiggasopus, they say. You got us. Hey, congratulations on a good prank. You got us. This is the person who would still be going to millie-vinyl concerts if they were touring. It's like, no, no, no, what are you doing? They're not the ones who are actually sucking these socks. It's all still real to me. My friend, my friend,
Starting point is 00:41:20 Mark, posted a blurry picture of a cocktail to let everyone know that he was out for dinner. Fred Mark posted a blurry picture of a cocktail to let everyone know that he was out for dinner last night. That's, it's always a part of you. People of your age bracket do that? Yes, that saves. That's humiliating. I agree. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Martinis with the boys. Christine posted a pic of a guy wearing a rifle and a Starbucks with the caption, don't mind Larry, he just got back from three tours of duty in white manastan. What does that mean? He's a white guy. Oh, okay. He was in a white manastan.
Starting point is 00:41:56 By the way, what does that mean? Is the proper response to that? I don't want you to feel bad about that one. Three tours he did there in White Manistan. Pretty good joke. There's too many words in there. He just got back from three tours of duty in White Manistan.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Like he did have to use all of those words. We got it. I'm just imagining that done in a stand up routine and the cheers after like, yeah, that's our big closer. Right. Husey, who I didn't realize I was even friends with on Facebook.
Starting point is 00:42:27 As he is he dying, can we contribute to his fund? Husey is still alive. I went on his show earlier, actually yesterday, I did his show and he was alive, so that's good. Thank God. I know. He posted three picks of himself out drinking very large draft beers with people I can only assume are his parents.
Starting point is 00:42:46 They're the best medicine. So that was good. And then I'll close it off with this one. My friend Dan posted the suicide hotline and asked people to please repost the number. Now, as a man who's wanted to kill himself for three decades. Yeah. I'll find it. I'll find the number, what I need. No, here's my question on that one. It's obviously a cry for help if you're posting
Starting point is 00:43:11 the suicide hotline number. And now it's not fucking me, because I haven't opened up a fucking Facebook. Now I have to reach out to this guy, be like, listen, if you ever need someone to talk to, and say the guy can do for you, it's like, dude, I don't want this responsibility right now. Well, apparently not only is it not on you,
Starting point is 00:43:26 you've turned to the internet to be like, can you believe this one? I'm doing just the opposite. I guess we're looking at this print. He should kill himself. My point is this, and we need a stinger for the segment because I'm going to continue to do these Facebook updates. My point is this, leave the content creating
Starting point is 00:43:43 to the professionals, all right? That's my problem I think what most social media is that most people shouldn't have a voice Right, right while we're doing the equivalent of Carly yelling at people to get off his lawn Correct with like my bag of phone is an important bag of phone Those assholes need to stop it already All right, you ready to move on to another fun video? Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:44:06 I have what you called a strange stand-up set. Yeah, this is, I guess someone dealing with a heckler, but it also like, it gets very personal, and I don't know if he's doing stand-up for like his family or something, I couldn't really tell. Okay, let me, before we watch it, I'll read to you what's going on here. Please.
Starting point is 00:44:26 So the guy, well, you know what, let's watch it first. I don't want to give away the ad dig. Okay, yeah, never mind. Because if I read you the explanation, but I do know why what we're about to see occur occurs. And this is on Reddit. And actually, this video led me to another subreddit that I want to show you. That's one of the things we want to do.
Starting point is 00:44:49 We have some different ideas for segments and things, but there's some weird reddits out there, subreddits. There's a lot of weird stuff in all direct, whether it's like political or sexual or whatever. There's a bunch of rabbit holes we can go down. Exactly. or whatever. There's a bunch of rabbit holes we could go down. Exactly, so. And we're always looking for suggestions and stingers and hot-knots. But all right, let's check out this video that Mike found for us. If you're listening to this on the podcast, let me just explain. This is some kind of open mic that's happening in Vegas
Starting point is 00:45:26 It's a pretty sad looking scene. There's probably like a dozen people in this place There's a guy with a tin foil hat who has approached the man with the microphone and the man with the microphone does not want him anywhere near him as he's trying to do his open mic comedy set Understandable Put your hands on me again. You're gonna fucking regret it. Okay, go sit out Comedy set understandable Zuma could kill for a crowd this lively. Yeah, no shit, he's gonna get respawned right now. He's filming gonna, you know he's gonna post that Facebook great set last night.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Ha ha ha. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Is that possible about it? Start the fucking show asshole. I'm not, I'm not. That's always a good introduction. All, I want to bring up right now the comedy stylings a bill bill start the fucking show That's all who is that surly at an open mic like I want to see some fucking comedy from some amateur
Starting point is 00:46:40 Right now I'm gonna start shooting right now. What I tell you what I tell you I fucked up I wasn't showing the video this whole time. I'm so sorry My dad I pulled the video down so I could do the Facebook thing and I forgot to tell let me just show you the end of this again My dad on there everyone you were watching like me., I walked there's no stage. They're just out in the floor. This guy starts walking very quickly Towards the man with the microphone and he kicks him either in the balls or the gut. It's hard to tell But that guy goes down fast Imagine you're just that what's that like imagine you're just that comedy at the Carlson and Vinnie's performing and you You're sitting in the crowd and this happens. Oh my god. I would love it. Listen bitch
Starting point is 00:48:04 As long as Vinnie's the one getting kicked, I would love it. What I tell you, what I tell you. Oh, boy. He puts him on me once. He was going to do it again. And slow mo. Oh, it's hard to tell where he got hit. But that's some good content.
Starting point is 00:48:21 I've been watching World Cup. That was a pretty good trick right there. So heckler should be handled. Correct. Look at, if security's not going to deal with this thing, then you got to do, all right, here's the explanation for this. Okay. The guy that got laid out is called Ray DeZone.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Yes. He's a really shitty local comic and has a reputation for being a disruptive asshole at other people's shows in Vegas. He calls himself an anti-comic, which is how he tries to turn the fact that he isn't funny into a feature and not a bug. Or as he describes it, I am a famous anti-comic, meaning that my comedy is so bad it's actually good. He isn't correct. It's just so bad he should sit down. Oh, I feel like we might have a character. We might have to look into this guys. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:49:07 This guy raid zone is his name is no ADE zone. Get to work, folks. Send me these clips. Well, so what's interesting is that in this explanation, I found a link to this other subreddit called sit down. Okay. And it's kind of a dead subreddit, unfortunately, but what it is, it's people finding people who shouldn't be doing comedy, and they're saying, don't stand up, sit down.
Starting point is 00:49:32 And this is a fun video that I found where someone watches someone tell a joke and then gives advice on how to punch it up. You know, without someone asking, like, hey, by the way, can you make my joke fun here? This guy just comes really, because that was okay. But here's the eyes.
Starting point is 00:49:47 This is like, I love stand-up. Like, I do a podcast called Why You Laughing about the history of stand-up, which is fantastic. I'm torn, oh, thank you. I'm torn between whether I prefer great stand-up or terrible stand-up. Cause like, it's either like Dave Chappelle or Tom Myers in my mind or my two
Starting point is 00:50:05 favorites. I honestly, if Tom Myers or Stuttering John Melendez were within a four hour drive of me, I enjoyed that show. Yeah. Yeah. We saw that was the first gear head outing with me and me and the listeners of the Blind Mike project was we went to Brendan Shaw. Oh, right. Last lost him. That that's right I heard you talking about that was quite a treat does he sell that out he's did five shows and our show there's a little bit
Starting point is 00:50:34 of legroom okay the group that we do there's like 12 or 15 of us we were probably 10% of the crowd I would say. Okay, all right, fair enough. All right, let's, you know, I can't bring myself to get into the Brendan job. I feel like it's oversaturated. I feel like how other people feel about settling John. Yeah, we're like, I mean, let's do it this. I know, and I know Royce and Merch are kind of the kings of it.
Starting point is 00:51:05 They came out my show and we broke down what's the call? Fighter in the kid. Yeah. And I was just going to watch an episode and talk about it. Those guys went hard and deep fast. I was like, oh, okay, I'll get out of the way, guys. You go. I love shot.
Starting point is 00:51:20 And listen, I've copied Royce with Brendan Schaub. I've copied you when I talk about Stuttering John, but there's only one podcast that talks about Richard O'Jeta. So you have to come to me for that. Dude, your Richard O'Jeta episode is fantastic, dude. And that's what's crazy about me. Maybe I just don't have time for all this, but you see Richard on Stuttering John,
Starting point is 00:51:39 and you go, this guy's a lunatic, but I've never gotten just watched his show. He is so violent. Well, it says since he left everyone, since he left YouTube, I don't know if he still has the same violent outburst. It's sad. Yeah. He left the same mental health, but it's sad. He left the same time that John did, right?
Starting point is 00:51:57 He did. Yeah. I think they're going to come back together and mid-January. That's, that's what I hear. So hopefully that's true. All right. Let's cross. Let's check this out.
Starting point is 00:52:05 The title of this is this guy giving stand-up advice at the delivery window. They hit you up like we're so sorry Here's a gift card for three million dollar So the punchline was at the Window they messed up the order they go we're so sorry Here's a gift card for three million dollars. All right, and now this is another person who's responding to that. $3 million. Ha ha, that was a pretty funny joke. I like the setup a lot.
Starting point is 00:52:31 It's definitely relatable. But I think for the punch line, honestly, I would change it up a little bit. I think $3 million is too unrealistic. And so the audience will be distracted by that so then they won't really understand the punch line and they won't really think it is funny. So I would say something more like like $50 because obviously they're not going to give you $50 but that's just enough that's just unreasonable enough to wear it's
Starting point is 00:53:01 funny. So you should probably rewrite that and and try it out at the next set. All right, so this guy's advice is change the dollar amount. That's do I sound like this much of a douche when I'm breaking down comedy? No, you don't like to dance. When I'm like, guys, Bob, new heart is pretty underrated. I just love that advice. He goes, I like the joke. I get the joke, set up good. Punchline changed $3 million to $50. And that's going to crush.
Starting point is 00:53:35 I guess it's either a good joke or it's not. I mean, the exaggeration part is the Faden. I also have the idea of like, like on Samarillo and Mark Norman's podcast, they'll throw up bits and kind of work on them together, which I actually think is interesting, when it's too successful, very funny comedians. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:51 What I love is two douchebag open-mikers. Like, how do we tweak this one? All right. Now I want to switch gears to a guy you're very familiar with, Dave Portnoy. Oh, okay. A man who I believe bleaches his asshole. I've heard rumors.
Starting point is 00:54:10 And I guess he's got a watch company. So there's a gentleman who has some thoughts about his marketing. Okay. And wants to give him some advice. Actually, why don't you set this up? You're the other one who knows about this. I hope it's helpful. Why don't know, I don't know set this up? You're the one who knows about this. I hope it's helpful.
Starting point is 00:54:25 Well, I don't know, I don't know if I know this video or not. Did I send this to you? Yes, you did. I did. I can't remember this. All right, well, that was all you could do if you sent me that up then.
Starting point is 00:54:34 So apparently Dave Portnoy started this watch company. He's watched his cost like $2,500 a piece. And this gentleman, you're gonna see in this TikTok video, critiqued the way that he presents, the marketing I guess is what you would say. And Dave came back at him, and now this guy comes back again at Dave and explains specifically what he would have done
Starting point is 00:54:54 and shows you what he would do to make it better. Does that ring a bell? Yeah, it's very interesting. So, Portonely essentially created a watch company. He created a company that is by the common man for the common man. And then years later, created a company that sells watches for $3,000.
Starting point is 00:55:11 And people have been telling them how he should have done it, how he could improve upon that. All right, so here's one example of that. So, Dave Portnoy, the barcel guy, is very upset that I've done a tear down of his new watch brand, and here's video footage from his latest pressed conference. I would actually counter that at a $2,400 price point, he's totally missed the mark on marketing. And he says he's been working on this
Starting point is 00:55:47 for the past two years. Here's how I would update everything in like an hour. First things first, this logo absolutely has to go. First, super-planned in Elephant. Second, the eye and the brick is supposed to be a brick, but it's small scales like on a watch face, it's completely unreadable and just looks like a mistake. Third, the main thing drawing visual attention here
Starting point is 00:56:03 is watch cutting. I have no idea if this guy is right, but what I love is a guy confidently critiquing someone. I'll just believe it. Well, I do have to tell you this video triggered me a little bit because second guessing marketing is something that I used to have to sit in meetings for hours,
Starting point is 00:56:19 torturously going through because with marketing, there's no right or wrong answer, you test things, you try things. However, I will say that everything this guy says is not wrong. Yeah, I mean, there's something, so there's something to Port-Noir, he has such a loyal audience
Starting point is 00:56:33 and he has done a lot of things very well. So there's something to him putting his name behind a watch brand and maybe it'll just sell. The criticism that I've seen online is that they are $40 watches for $2,400. I don't know if that's true. You can get away with that if you present yourself in the right way. That's why marketing is so important for a watch company like this. I think that's because this guy's point. He's going to look at, there's a way to
Starting point is 00:57:00 sell something that should cost $40 for $2,400. You're not doing it. And actually, here's, so he first, he's picking on the logo, the font is terrible. And he's right, that it's brick watch company, but brick is so small and watch company is so large that you just see watch company. So it doesn't really mean anything. So it looks like a mistake. Third, the main thing drawing visual attention here is watch company when you actually want it to be brick. And there's a mismatch between the name and how this font feels. So here's what I would do. Your eyes are drawn to brick, not watch company. This nice thick, serifant feels sturdy, much like a brick. The stacking of the words feels like a brick.
Starting point is 00:57:36 And the serifants feel more traditional like it has heritage, and look how nicely a brick would sit on top of that. The word- So he made a new logo for him, and I would agree, although it's very subjective, that it's a much better logo than the one that they're currently using at the brick watch company. That's sweet of him. All right, so now he's gonna tell him how his Instagram page sucks. And again, everything that he critiques here,
Starting point is 00:58:00 I would have to agree with. And look how nicely a brickwood sit on top of that. The worst defender is the Instagram page. When you're selling a premium luxury product, especially a $2,400, you cannot afford to have such cheap art direction here. Just looks like a bunch of stock photography and these last two posts are really chaotic.
Starting point is 00:58:16 And come on, attention to details lacking here. The profile picture isn't even properly centered, so you just have this white peaking out at the bottom. Amateur hour. Here's what I would do instead. Gray, white, monochromatic, feels very elevated, appeals to guys, masculine, looks like there's some attention to detail here, some fine worksmanship,
Starting point is 00:58:33 tell the story about always earned. When I see something like this, I'm like, okay, yeah, that might be a couple grand. And it's not like you don't have these pictures. I found all these online. I already covered the website in my earlier video, but looks like a cheap colonial site. I think it's just hilarious.
Starting point is 00:58:45 There he is, how was the move that you guys? Yeah. Because usually when ordinary gets an arguments with people, it's fuck you, no fuck you. Right. This guy is just critiqued, like succinctly, like no, I'm trying to help you. Here's some information.
Starting point is 00:58:58 No, that's what I liked about this too. That's why I included this in the show because marketing is subjective, and you could have an argument about it, and Dave could come back with his reasoning in rationale But this guy is obviously well thought out and he's like well, you just didn't your base it what the fuck do you know? He's like well here. I read his on your website for you and I read his on your Instagram page and here's how I would market it Here's a logo you should do is it's like yeah, it's right about all of these things. These are all upgrades from what they're really doing I think that's why I included it because like the argument
Starting point is 00:59:27 that I saw a lot on the bar stool Reddit was people like fucking Dave thinks he's a watch salesman now. He's making a shit pro like there was a lot of talk shitting on these watches, but it was all coming from people who obviously don't know watches either. This guy seemed to know what he was talking about. Yes, yes, correct.
Starting point is 00:59:45 All right, we're we're hitting an hour, but I have a few more things either. This guy seemed to know what he was talking about. Yes, yes, correct. All right, we're hitting an hour, but I have a few more things that I wanna get to. I wanted to keep this an hour. I have a hard time with that, by, as you know. Should we pick the best? I'm having fun. Should we pick like the best two or three and just stick to them?
Starting point is 00:59:59 Yes, here we go. All right, here we, well, do you have a suggestion then? Do you remember what's left? I have a really quick one. Okay, then I do, I do remember. Do you have the ASMR clip? Oh, Jesus, I do, you're gonna say that.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Yes. I have the ASMR clip. It's very short. I just wanna be topical and trendy. We're talking about social media. I wanna show everyone that I'm a hip. So you guys are probably thinking about the show Wednesday on Netflix. And if you're not not I am going to stick it in your memory right now
Starting point is 01:00:45 It's tires, horror, horror movie times. All right, I do not get ASMR at all. I find it very much put off. It's not appealing to me in any single way. Well, a lot of people would disagree. And if anyone's not familiar with ASMR, people jerk off to what we just heard. Right. And by the way, I respect feet people more
Starting point is 01:01:08 than people who jerk off to this shit. Just out of that. No, they're also, I actually think even weirder than jerking off to it, there's people that will like fall asleep to something like that. Like, oh yeah, just use it to go to bed. The whipsmacking and the, I hate it. Dude, I literally go in and edit out people whipsmacking and the uh I hate it dude I literally go in and edit out
Starting point is 01:01:26 people whipsmacking on who are these podcasts because I can't fucking stand it it gets to be so you should see the looks I give trucker Andy in the studio over here I get so fucking annoyed with that I'm discovered like hey I gotta I gotta jerk off real quick would you mind chewing an apple and whispering your name like who found who found that? Who first found that? Oh, yeah. And then, here's a fun one. This is the heroic tale of a woman who can't eat vegetables. It's a no-tick-to-me. Kelly, we've been very seven years.
Starting point is 01:02:00 You're cooking me. I'm out of here. When Patrick's cooking, I'm usually in a living room watching TV because I don't even like being in the kitchen. Kelly can't stand a smell or even touch most foods. Alright, so the caption here is, woman who eats nothing but cheese and potatoes tries to eat vegetables. So here's her husband cooking up some vegetables for her. I'll tell you, my main issue with this is that the music and the tone of it is like someone overcoming adversity. Right. When it's really a girl that's at a shit like me, I fucking bread and pasta and shitty foods.
Starting point is 01:02:38 But it's not a, if I reach for an apple in the fridge, I'm not getting a heroes welcome. Maybe you should. Especially vegetables. Well, I want you to try this because it's the green vegetable. So he cuts the tiniest little piece of like a Brussels sprout or something. Well, I think all we really need to play is the reaction because it's one of the greatest reactions to anything. Every time I've tried to cook her a little something extra,
Starting point is 01:03:06 she just refuses. Just try a little taste. And is shaking. She can't get the fork up to her mouth. She smells it. That's the reaction my wife has to semen, by the way. All she did was smell a vegetable. It's just so put off by it.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Get that again. I can't, I can't. Can we do it? So my problem with this, Mike, is in the title, it says, woman who tries to eat vegetables, I would argue she's not even trying. That's not a good try right there. Don't you hear she's just been water-bored. Give her a little, look, I got her some slack. She's a scry. right there. Don't you hear she's just been water-borded. Give her a little, cut her some slack. Ah, she's so great. So yeah, I think that's pretty much the, the main part of that
Starting point is 01:03:50 that we wanted to talk about. Yeah, I would say so. I have another segment that I want. Well, there's two other segments I want to do. I'm going to say because of time, we're not going to do, but we will do in the future. Okay. Movie reviews and movies we haven't seen. We're going gonna just watch a movie trailer and then we'll both give our movie review just from watching the trailer. I wanted to do, following for Christmas, that new Netflix movie starring What's Your Tits.
Starting point is 01:04:15 I'll give my review, it's fucking hard. It's terrible. I haven't seen it. I'm gonna guess. It's the worst thing I've ever seen. But the other thing I wanted to do, because this, I'm gonna be ripping off something from the Drew and Mike show here, but it's okay because Drew Lane texted me this morning when he saw that we were doing this show and he goes,
Starting point is 01:04:30 oh, this is great, you guys gotta do, you gotta talk about these thirsty women who need compliments really badly on social media. Oh, so what we're gonna see here. I found it's not stealing if you say you're stealing, you know? Well, also if the guy you're stealing from goes, go and do that, it's like, okay, yeah, you got it. stealing, you know? Well, also if the guy you're stealing from goes, go and do that. It's like, okay, yeah, you got it.
Starting point is 01:04:47 So, I'm in. This is a woman named Erica Francis. She's on Fox 2 Detroit, okay. She's an anchor woman on the news. And this is a recent post that she put up on Instagram. And there's a photo of her and it says, I've changed my hair nearly four times so far. This AM, LOL, bad hair day for sure. And there's a photo of her and it says I've changed my hair nearly four times so far this AM LOL
Starting point is 01:05:06 Bad hair day for sure. However ladies you might as well pull it back today because it's going to be windy Now she's a very attractive woman her hair looks fantastic I mean there's nothing in here. You'd be like oh man poor Erica I want a rough go. She's having that you'd be like, oh man, poor Erica. I mean, I want a rough go. She's having that. But this is what annoys the shit out of me is what everyone responds.
Starting point is 01:05:30 And I'm going to rip off another friend of mine, Brandon McAfee, who does the voice, you're still cute, keep it up, Erica. Absolutely stunning. But you're very right, bad hair. All the hair spray in the world is gonna save anyone's hair. Oh, I hate trying to like, neg her in a cute way.
Starting point is 01:05:52 Yeah, like, oh, I agree. Your hair's not great. It's not up to snuff. Really says, you always look good. Still looks great, Erica. Have a great day today. This is great. That's another, you're right.
Starting point is 01:06:09 This needs, this simps need to be exposed as much as any. Well, it's the thirsty, thirst traps and the simps who are collaborating on this nonsense that we have to see out here. Still absolutely gorgeous. And in real life, they would life, this woman would never interact with the trolls. There's nothing to do with these assholes. No matter what kind of hairstyle you have,
Starting point is 01:06:30 you always look beautiful every morning. And I straight up wake up every morning and you're the first woman I see, God bless you. Creepy. Ugh, I mean, why not just say you're jerking off to our on the news? That's what you're trying to say. I have much more respect for that guy.
Starting point is 01:06:46 I'd be much more likely to be friends with the guy that's like, I'm cranking it right now. Nice pick. Yeah, that's the guy hitting up. Hey, what are you doing later? Do you want to grab a beer? And then I'm just looking at some of the other comments from another post that she put up.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Here's the post that she put up for people. Color and cut by George, the owner of Sixelot. So she just got her hair done. She our makeup is ridiculous. She's got a fucking pound of makeup on her face. Looks great. And every comment underneath this, she has personally liked. So that's how you know how much attention she did.
Starting point is 01:07:18 She already got TV, but she did so much attention. That she goes through, she looks at every comment as it comes in and gives it a thumbs up It's embarrassing you tweeted me saying you like my podcast. You're getting to like. Oh my gooo. I'm flattered Okay, fair enough Mike's a little thirsty too guys I think that's it where that's it we're fired to got it right now all right Cool well some of the other ideas that we have are self-helpless. So looking at inspirational messages posted by people
Starting point is 01:07:51 like Gary Vee and Steve Harley. Yeah, there's a lot of people, even the not famous ones that the inspirational messages. Those are honestly better, actually. God, they're the worst. Yeah. What else we want to do? Trending downward, you want to talk about that? So basically the idea, the example I gave the Carl was like the other day, like when a Kirstie Ali died the other day. I was looking for examples. I couldn't find any
Starting point is 01:08:17 great ones, but I found a few people that were like, let's not forget she's an alt-right mega piece of shit. And it's like, okay, that's what you're thinking of the day she died. So stuff like that where it's like a trending topic, but the worst take on it, I guess. Yeah. And that's, by the way, we could fill that with stuttering John shit all fucking day long because he gets right in there and asked people to do his show and tries to promote himself. But yeah, that's a great idea. So yeah, we have a lot of ideas for the show and tries to promote himself, but yeah, that's a great idea. So, yeah, we have a lot of ideas for the show and segments, but I think this has gone pretty well today. I'll call it. Yeah, like we said, this is a lot looser version of what it will be. I think it'll kind of progress
Starting point is 01:08:56 naturally, hopefully. Well, can I say something that's funny because you and I, we had a quick meeting about how this might go. And you were saying how you really like the structure of who are these podcasts and the different records and bits and the stingers. I'm like, I really like how your show's just kind of loose and just got a do-shot. So, the best way we're like, can we not be doing the podcast we're doing now? I was like, I actually kind of like that better. It's just like a page of profit. We just go through it.
Starting point is 01:09:19 It's called a day. So, I will probably land somewhere in the middle. Mixed up both, yeah. I would imagine. Mark Conan, $5 Canadian, thank you very much. Much love to the great WTP. Boy and Mike Vinnie and the rest of the gang, Carl, please post cardiffs, re-recorded intro somewhere.
Starting point is 01:09:33 I need it. Oh God, do I have that somewhere? Because that is a fantastic theme song done by, of course, Doug from the JINGLE departmentinar, our song as well. He's so cool, he's about to fly. He's the guy on the other side, he's the costume. That's one hot potato. He's the guy on the girls' water beware. Oh-ho! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I should have told you to get your cassette deck out and hit record on that so you could have
Starting point is 01:10:49 gotten your copy of that song I apologize. Benjamin Cohen 499, this section is still without Carl sharing his Facebook page to the stream. So that's going back to when I was doing my Facebook thing. Look, I'm back at it out all my friends and family. I'm just going to explain to you what's going on. I'm not going to show the actual pose.. I'm just gonna explain to you. What's going on? I'm not gonna show the actual files.
Starting point is 01:11:07 I think that would be a dick move, right? I like if we just ran out of shit, but fellow we had to do the segment and you're like, uh, yeah, and it's uh, James's birthday today. Right. Telling the facts. We just showed it in real time. And honestly, most of it was advertisements. I was, I was a little surprised. I'm like social media. You just hit it for the money. What's going on here? Good for Zuckerberg.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Yeah, good for how I'm glad he's doing so well. Let's see what else we got. Kinky loco coming in. This has been the best tour of these socials ever. Thank you. Don't we downhill from here Mike? That's the problem. There were no laughs. MP3 for,
Starting point is 01:11:44 it's almost like two pounds pounds, or overseas over here. David Chandler, 9.99 stories already BS. I'm sorry, I don't remember which story that was, but there were people complaining about one of the stories that we told on here and said that it was fake, or people didn't believe it, I don't know. Did I told? Well, I mean, it was your prep. Damn't believe it, I don't know. Did I told?
Starting point is 01:12:05 Well, I mean, it was your prop. Damn it. I'm not blaming you. I'm trying to get something wrong. You did do most of the work, fine. Okay. Let's see, David Chandler, get for nine and nine? Oh yeah, what about the signed to bus pass?
Starting point is 01:12:19 Hmm, but you don't have that. Oh, okay, that's probably referring to you. Yeah, different rebel. Yeah. To the era to reveal the fact that he collects autograph, and over nine autograph pieces from MLK. But MLK, Jr., just like, signing autographs. I'll tell you what, I didn't realize
Starting point is 01:12:36 that was one of the things that he was doing. He would do like, card shows. You know, like, exactly. Daddy, daddy, I wanna be an MLK. We're gonna go see Pete Rose if we have time. And we can go over to the MLK booth, but Mookie Wilson is there this weekend. Dude, I've seen, I think there is why I thought Pete Rose immediately. I've been to Vegas like Seasers. And in Seasers, I have that huge mall and there's like a sports memorabilia place.
Starting point is 01:13:03 And I saw Pete Rose there once doing like a signing and literally nobody gave up. Really? Just standing there by himself, like that looked so embarrassing. For best of. That first thing we did, white shenanigans, Fisker Whisker things, that could be the out name
Starting point is 01:13:19 for this show. I like that. Yeah, white shenanigans. And I'd rather not break race into this. It'll be like the code. We all know that it's called white shenanigans. But David Chandler, I got in 1999. So my cousin's neighbor gave this to him to give to me, to send to you to give to Mike. Okay, cool.
Starting point is 01:13:40 Yeah, however you got to do it. I promise to send it over and don't worry. I'll handle it. We'll cure blindness in no time. I Can't pronounce this word something wolf love you guys have some dowry dues. That's $10 Australian Holy shit people are up in Australia right now. I'm no idea what time it is That's a fun bit to do trying to figure out what the what time it is in different places in the world Yes, that should be the whole next podcast.
Starting point is 01:14:06 What is it in Albania? I love you guys. Oh, I heard you read that one. And then we're getting back to the beginning where I think I was reading those. Eddie Valentino, risking getting in trouble at work, but very worth it for the show. Keep up to great work.
Starting point is 01:14:22 Hey, just do what I did. Just leave your job. I guess start off on, yeah. A few thousand go to work on Patreon. I mean, you'll be fine. Yeah, what the fuck you do, buddy? You know, that's so stupid. And also, I do want to point out that if you aren't spending
Starting point is 01:14:37 at least six of your eight hours slacking off, you're doing it wrong. Because that's what your co-workers are doing. What are you trying to do? Get ahead. Don't be that guy. You're going to root it for the rest of them. Mike, people should check out the Blind Mike project.
Starting point is 01:14:51 I believe, Blind Mike.net. Yeah. Blind Mike.net, you can find all the links while you're laughing and the Blind Mike project, both up there, all the free links, or you can subscribe to the Patreon if you want. And we're doing, for now, you get the why you laughing episodes a week early,
Starting point is 01:15:07 but starting in the new year, we're gonna have a bunch of bonus episodes and many episodes for why you laughing. So look forward to that. And I am a fan of both of those shows. So people should definitely check that out. Jeff Eastman, $5. What is your favorite pink Floyd album
Starting point is 01:15:21 and why is it animals? It is animals, even though dark side of the moon is probably a better album and I enjoy animals more Maybe it's not as played out. I don't know. What do you think Mike? What's your favorite pink Floyd? I don't know. I don't go deep on any music like I like Comfortably know It's my If you don't like music, I know I know I get shit on for it But I just went to comedy like if I'm listening to something. You're a blind guy. If you don't like music, I know. I know I get shit on for it, but I just went to comedy.
Starting point is 01:15:47 Like if I'm listening to something that's a podcast, I'm not working. Fair enough. I guess that makes sense. I'm a Taylor Swift guy. If you're here because of buying my gear, if you're a gear head, then I want to let people know that I do a show
Starting point is 01:16:01 called Who Are These Podcasts, and that's a show where we rip on people's podcasts. I'm going to have on Gino Biscanti this weekend to talk about Missouri Loves Company, which will be interesting. Oh, fun, fun, Gino's story. Oh, go ahead. I did in Hot Water when it was still him and Aaron Berg. Yes.
Starting point is 01:16:21 And I was booked by like whoever their booker is, not them. So when I got on, they started asking me these questions that I don't understand. And I caught on pretty quickly. So there's a, if you Google the name Mike Geary, Yes. Instead of blind Mike, the first name that comes up is a guy who wrote a book, like he does ab workouts
Starting point is 01:16:42 and he wrote a book about it and show like that. So they're asking me like all these health questions. And I'm like, guys, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. And they go, just so, Geno's like, you're not this guy. And I was like, no, so all the prep they did on me was for someone else. I have to find that episode. I would have to look that up. That's how I'm sure it's in the archive somewhere on a compound. How long was your segment? It was probably on for like 20 minutes. It's not crazy long. That's fucking funny.
Starting point is 01:17:08 Yeah, that's great. Yeah, by the way, Oh, and the creep off too. I do a show at my buddy Vinnie Paulino. It's a true crime show. It's the contest. It's the only true crime show made for men. So if you hate true crime like I do,
Starting point is 01:17:22 check out the creep off. That's a lot of fun. We do that on the creep off YouTube page every Monday at one. There's also a podcast that you can find the feed for. So I know that you went to the Skankfest in Vegas. You know, I was in New York doing a show with Kumi and Brian Johnson. You could have come to that, but you chose Skankfast. My loyalty's lie in the West Coast. Yeah, obviously. But I saw that Louis G. Gomez announced there's gonna be a Skankfast 23 in Vegas.
Starting point is 01:17:54 Yes. As well. Yeah, honestly, it was kind of the perfect place for, like, they fit very well on the Fremont Street. Like, it fit pretty perfectly. So, the reason why I'm bringing this up is because Mike, how do we get down there? How do we get the show?
Starting point is 01:18:10 How do we get the podcast on Skankfest? Interesting. I'll start working on. I mean, I know Ralph Ralfe, Ralph's done my show before. I've talked to Lewis a little bit. But Lewis likes me when he remembers who I am. Okay. Well, I said there are another blind Yeah, when he remembers who I am. Okay. Well, I said, there are another blind mic
Starting point is 01:18:27 who works at gas digital. Oh, yes. So here's the fuck it's up to. So we probably think it's that guy. There's a gay blind mic that works for gas digital. So apparently he's like, he, that's cute. I have a girlfriend, that's cute.
Starting point is 01:18:40 But like, I guess gay blind mic lost his virginity at Skankfest and got his fuckers. I thought I heard a laugh track coming in. Yes, I have a crowd out there. The studio success. Yeah. But yeah, Gabe line Mike, I guess got his dick sucked. They're lost his virginity at Skankfest.
