Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep115 - My Wife Hates Me

Episode Date: July 30, 2018

Rich Vos and Bonnie McFarlane are two stand up comedians that are married to each other. They also do a podcast together. I'm writing this because there's no other way you would possibly know this information. No one is talking about or listening to this show. We also circle back to some gems from Opie Radio episode 23 that we missed last week.  All in all, this episode of WATP is one of our better "filler" episodes. I mean, you know.

War these podcasts, they do a show about shows. It's hilarious, the show is hilarious. It's show time. W-A-T-P-W-A-T-T. Hello and welcome to another episode of Who Are These Podcasts. The only show that doesn't think it's content is worth $5 a month on Patreon. I'm your host, Carl. With me was supposed to be Kevin this week pitching in at the last second is Jen from the

Jingles department. Thank you, Jen. Yeah, and thanks a lot, Kevin. Yes, Jen is stepping in at the last second. Kevin was booked. He had a conflict come up. So let me just play for you what we're missing this week. Just weird references that don't really go anywhere.

So he will be sorely missed. And instead we're stuck with Jen from the Jingles Department. I let your reminder listeners, you can visit us at whoarethese.com. Call the show. Leave us a voicemail, 585-612-1388. Email the show, w-a-t-p-show at gmail.com. Always looking for podcast suggestions. Also, we encourage our listeners to give us a positive five star review on iTunes, but then shittin' over us in the comments section.

We have another good one that came in that I'll be getting to later out on the show. Do I can't wait? Today we'll be reviewing a podcast called My Wife Hates Me. This was a suggestion that came in from Nicole from the band Giftshop in New York City. Jed and I have both listened to the show separately. We have not discussed it with each other beforehand. Let's get into it. My wife hates me starring Stand Up Comedians Rich Voss and Bonnie McFarland. Yeah. Who I used to hear all the time on Open Anthony, I would listen to them. Yes, regular show contributors, in fact, this podcast, which is on the Riotcast Network, most well known for home of the Chip Chipp Symptocast. I love it. I believe that's the only thing that puts them on the map.

Used to be, this show used to be on Sirius XM on Opie's channel. Oh, did you know that? I did not know that. Yeah. I stood with Anne, once they fired him, I got rid of my Sirius. These guys used to be on Sirius XM

and they probably had a couple dozen listeners who were flipping through the channels or getting in their car and that was on. Now they have none, so that's gotta be depressing. But there's a real good reason why they don't have listeners. And I want to play the clip that sums up the show for me. That is this one here. Bonnie McFarlane is Rich Voss's wife.

It's the show we listen to. It is just the two of them having a conversation. It's so boring that she even lets out a big old yawn. Before I started collecting. You bought your dad's fake Louis Vuitton. What kind of podcast is this? What are the hostes yawning in the middle of it? Well, yeah, there was zero editing in this, obviously. No, they talk about the fact that they don't even know how to edit.

I know. It's crazy. And I have lots of examples of things that potentially could have been edited out. Yeah. Jen, do you have a clip that you want to play? Well, mine is, yeah, one. Wake up. This is Twitter.

You know, under a Twitter arrest, fake followers. I played serious golf today. I heard they separated the fake followers from their families. I knew that was gonna be a bad joke, that's why it says so quietly. Shot in 86 today. On the back, on the back, I shot 43 with a triple and two doubles. I clipped this because

The sun's enough for me. Yeah, Belch. Yep mouth sounds. Yeah They're not even having the same conversation. Well plus They're both bombing with their jokes Rich is talking about how Twitter got rid of a bunch of fake followers. Right. It's like there was a Twitter raid They invaded people's houses. And then Bonnie tries to make a joke about separating children from their parents that goes miserably. Right. And then Rich is right back onto his golf score. Yeah. This show, I felt like I had ADD just listening to it. Yeah. They bounced around. I wasn't following some of it while most of it.

I like Bonnie McFarland, I do. I've never been a huge rich boss fan. I don't know if it's just my type of humor. I looked him up on a wiki and it did say describe his humor as cringe comedy, which I would agree with. Crinch comedy sounds about right. He has a good stand of comedian.

I've seen rich boss live. He's a good stand up. He does sounds about right. he has a good stand of comedian. i've seen rich boss live. he's a good stand up. he does a nice job. bonny i believe is a funny person and a good stand up. the thing about this show that's actually a little bit offensive for us at w at p is that they're totally unprepared to do a podcast. they show up together. they're married couple and they just start going through random conversations that a married couple would have that couldn't

possibly be interesting to anyone. I have a whole series of clips that I want to play that I call not a podcast. This is the definition of not a podcast. This is Rich Voss talking about how he was down at the comedy seller and they were filming that TV show. What's that show on HBO that your buddy does there? Oh, crashing. Crashing.

That's what I was trying to say. Okay. So, Wallace is talking about how he went to the comedy seller and they're filming crashing there when he was there and he runs into someone that both him and his wife know. So he has to talk about that. So I went around and talked to Vanessa, what's her name? Ray Moss. She was there. Vanessa, our friend from California, she's writing for... So I went and said hi to her.

So maybe next week we'll have dinner or me, you and her, all of us. I ran into this person and we should... I told her we'd probably get dinner with her sometime. Okay, that's a conversation you could have had long before you hit record. Yeah. And potentially maybe taking out after you hit record. Here's another example, and this actually I think overlaps with your clip,

but Voss just talking about his golf scores if anyone could possibly care. Shot in 86 today. On the back, on the back I shot 43 with a triple and two doubles. I mean, the way this guy talks is so obnoxious. Does he have a legitimate speech impediment? Is that... I guess he was a crackhead, which is well known and well documented. He talks about it a lot, so maybe years of drug use turn him into a blubbering idiot.

Because that was really distracting. It's very distracting to listen to this guy talk. And I know I've been told about my Rochester accent. I know. I know that I'm also annoying. I'm not going to sit here every time I'm a professional broadcaster compared to Vos though, I'm fucking Casey Kasey.

I'm not going to argue that point. Here is another example of nonsense for a podcast. Now this is Bonnie, so you got Rich talking about his golf score and Bonnie going, people don't care about that, but then she starts talking about a crossfit regimen. Today we have to do 20, 25 burpees, 20 pull ups, 100 wall balls, 20 pull-ups

100 wall balls 20 pull-ups 25 burpees like that Who who could possibly give a shit and then Bonnie decides to make a site gag she makes fun of what riches wearing Which is always good for a podcast again. This is just not this is not a podcast. It's not a show You know, I'm just what is what? Where, what? You're looking at my leg and you go, what's that? What are you talking about? Sports socks and loafers. Oh, I just want to run around that house. You like that? But I get that I can like make you lose your mind.

I thought it was a tick. I want to take a nice picture for Instagram. No. Yeah. It's a married couple hang on their house recording a show. Right. But they're both Santa comedians. So, okay, that could be a podcast.

But there's nothing funny going on. There isn't anything funny going on, but she seems... She knows that though, if you play six. Well, before you do that, me hit this ISO, then I can't wait to put on the board permanently. All of it's bad. None of it's good. Well, if you're gonna do that, do two,

because I clipped one for your sound board, too. Okay, great. I honestly feel like we should put this podcast in the garbage. You're welcome. That's more than we could keep on for a while. All right, getting back to your track six. Here we go. Why'd you bring it up?

It's like not an exciting story. I'm not fucking break your hands. Why you keep doing it? And then you bring the ways. Why the shabby? Because it's just everything you do. What? I literally like I can't take it.

What? You need a vacation, huh? I do, I gotta get it. I gotta stop doing this podcast. It literally fills me with shame. It fills me with shame. Yeah, I wanna talk about that whole thing that they do. There's this constant tearing down to the fourth wall.

Yeah. Where they're talking about how we're doing this podcast that they do. There's this constant tearing down to the fourth wall, where they're talking about how, we're doing this podcast and this podcast isn't going well and it's a little bit self-deprecating, but it's all about talking about the show that they're doing, which, you know, like the American version of the show, the office,

they're constantly winking at the camera. That's the punchline to every joke. It's like, look at this face I'm making at the camera. Can you believe my life? That's what the show is. Every punchline is, man, my husband is going off about golf again. This show sucks. Yeah. You could do a little bit of that, but it gets old. That's always been their stick. That's what they did on ONA like 10 years ago too. Is it? Yeah. they always, well, everybody would pile on to Rich anyway. He's just kind of that.

A pilot. A pilot for being an idiot is one thing. But she would come on the show as well. And I remember her piling on to then. But they weren't taught. The other Doug does this on who's right too, and it drives me nuts. It's a show about their show all the time.

It's like, man, we're trying to do this podcast here. We can't get out of our own way. And oh, here's this podcast. We talked about we're doing this bit. This bit isn't going well. It's like, just do a fucking show and stop announcing that you're doing a show every two seconds. I have a compilation of this fourth wall slash constant talking about what they're doing,-deprecating humor shit that just you know sprinkled in is great but that's all the show is isn't this exciting holy hold on folks we're gonna get to some serious stuff I honestly feel like we should put this podcast in the garbage I'm saying if you

were left to your own devices to do this podcast on your own it would be the worst thing on the planet. Actually, my problem might be you just shut up. Honestly, honestly, say something interesting. What is something interesting? I mean, I don't know how to do this podcast. Well, I sit here and I listen to you and I think, God, this is awful. This is... I got to stop doing this podcast. It literally fills me with shame. It fills me with shame. That was my point. And it's obviously some clips that you have

and maybe I've heard he stopped us and other clips that you pulled. But that's what they talk about is the fact that they don't have anything to talk about. That's not a show. Well, right. And then if you play five. Sure, at 35 minutes, if we can just get this

to 40 minutes, I'll bail on it. We're at 35, almost 36 minutes. We got four more minutes. I go look at that house. You showed me. No, I'm too tired. Why? You're so excited about those other shit holes. This one's nice. Two, I was, I was, I don't know. What do we, you can't look at me. You can't look at me from the outside. It's a big deal. If you don't go inside, what's the sense? Maybe I'll look it up and I'll set up an appointment for Monday to go look at it. I'm sorry that was long.

Well, I think I, I think I so don't remember that conversation. But the reason I, I clipped that two reasons. One, the conversation is another example of them talking about, they're gonna go look at a house. Who fucking cares? But it is a podcast. You don't have to do 40 minutes.

Cut it at 35 minutes if you have 35 minutes, which they kinda did. They could have cut it at 11. They could have cut it at zero. Yes. And there's a reason why they do this. And I find it to be, well, you had another thing. God. No, that was it Those are my two two things. Yeah, the conversation and the the time the time with podcasts. I don't get I don't understand either

They feel obligated to fill a certain amount of time, but a lot of podcasts feel like that right We hear that a lot get it. I've listened to podcasts and I really love that are like 15 minutes long They stop when the content stops. Some of the best podcasts are daily 10 minute, 15 minute shows that know what they wanna say, get to the fucking point and move on. Right. Filling time is an old radio thing.

I know. When you had to fill six to 11, every AM fucking drive time, you had to fill time, but these shows now this other thing too where it's a network and it's the riot cast network is if that means anything. Right. Of course it does not. They're just on a website somewhere but that's not where people get podcasts from anyway. But this really explains why they're doing a show they're totally unprepared to do it.

They have nothing to talk about. But this is why. But you're doing all these wants to do them. It's not that I want to do it. I know it has to be done. If we're going to say, hey, we're putting out a podcast every week, then we got to put out a podcast every week. It needs to be done.

We're saying we're putting out a podcast. So here we go. We're just going to set up a microphone and have our normal fucking dinner conversation for everyone to hear. Why? There's no fucking rules made. You're creating your own problems. When you do that. And she even admits earlier in the show that they have nothing to talk about. I can't. I don't know what like there's nothing to talk about. That was not far into the show. Where Bonnie says there's nothing to talk about. That was not far into the show. Where Bonnie says there's nothing to talk about,

which is not surprising, it's just the two of them, a married couple that married for years, trying to do a show that has no type of format to it. There's no format at all. There's nothing that they're going to zoom in on and be like, all right, we're going to talk about the Netflix special we watch. I say anything, would've been more interesting than I played golf.

I do CrossFit. The only thing that they tried to do was go back to this show they did a couple of weeks ago, Skankfest, which was a standup show. Rich wants to talk about that. There were a bunch of great comedians on Skankfest. So he should have all these great stories. Dan Soder is a standout comedian, also really well known in the ONA world.

Very funny guy. This should be an interesting story, but it's not because Rich Voss is not going to tell you a story. He's also not a good talker in general. But listen out, boring this story becomes. This is talking about at Skankfast, Dan Soder doing stand up.

Oh, I didn't tell you this. So I'm hosting Dan Soder goes first. You know, we're behind that curtain, you know, behind the stage. Bobby, we're looking through and it's a girl in the front row sleeping. Right? Dan Soder said.

And Dan is having a great set. He's funny. He doesn't fail. So he says, he gets off like he just killed. I said, Dan, I hate to break the news to you. Growing the front row was sleeping. And Bobby came out with a video. It was so fucking funny.

And then we all went back and forth. Dan's funny. He knows how to go, obviously go back and forth. Dan's funny. He knows how to go, you know, obviously go back and forth. So that clip went nowhere. It the punchline should have been there was someone sleeping in the front row. Right. But instead, he doesn't know how to build that up to the crescendo. So instead, he gets past that and then he goes, and then we're going back and forth.

You know, he's funny. We can go back and forth. Didn't explain what any of those jokes were, how they're bustin' each other's balls can go back and forth didn't explain what any of those jokes were how they're busing each other's balls Just back and forth and then by the comes in to save the day because she knows that he's losing steam This is going nowhere. We had some good don't ask him to go side to side. We had some good What is it? Repetwar between each other would that be the word some witty repertoire? We had some repertoire between each other?

No, that's not the word. That's not how that word works. That's not how that word works at all. It's got a fucking idiot. I was so surprised at how little actual content there was in this podcast because they are both stand-ups. Yeah. Historically, when I hear stand-ups on broadcast, radio, or podcasts, they have a ton of shit

to talk about. And they're only doing it once a week. Right. But they always have a lot to say. We think. That's part of their job as they speak and tell stories, jokes. Well, plus they're traveling all the time, meeting people, going to different cities. You have tons of stories.

When you get back from a vacation, you have a few interesting stories to tell. These people are traveling all over the place, and they sit there, and the way they start off the show is talking about the fucking dryer that they had to get fixed. Uh, a piece of, you know, that piece in our dryer that broke the filter, the Lin filter, I ordered 150 bucks for a Lin filter. 50 bucks. They get you, they get you fifty bucks for a lin filter my fifty

bucks they get you they get you when you want a lin filter who gives a shit who gives a fuck that's rich boss professional stand-up comedian they get ya okay that's where you were going with that that was the first thing you brought up on your show a fifty-50 wind filter and you had nothing, you had no payoff for that at all. Well, the other thing that kind of flimics me was she's not even on Mike, she's walking into the room. You don't have to start at a time either.

Nope, there's no start time. Wait till she sits down. Wait for everybody to take the mic. Next to the mic. I'm not that interested in their lives. This podcast wasn't for me. Obviously. It's not for anybody. It wasn't for, I'm not the audience for this lives. This podcast wasn't for me. Obviously. It wasn't for, I'm not the audience for this podcast

because I don't give a shit. Chad, no one's listening to this podcast. Nobody's listening to this. Somebody must be. And not on purpose. They've been doing it for six years. They used to be on serious XM, now they're on riot cast.

Yeah. It's not going well. Rich Voss, besides being a bad story teller, he also makes these really loud mouth noises. And I know I've been keying it on this lately with the lip smacking, and I'm not going to do a lip smacking comp or anything this week. Thank you. But listen to how well this lip smack is. It's unbelievable. Show that I left there and I had a spot at, uh...

Awww. Awww. The agenda ground. What the fuck was that? You have to gear up for that lift smack that fucking lot. He's like, get a running start for it. The other thing that this guy does is he loves drinking his beverage. He's on a podcast, chugging down whenever beverage he's drinking and then slamming it back down on the table. One day you say that the next day you say it's easier for...

I didn't say for writing. You know, and people change their minds. Jesus Christ! I actually know exactly how much liquid he just drank, just by listening to that. I was picking up on that too. All the swallowing, the swallowing sounds. There's so much swallowing,

this is a later clip, later in the show. Again, all you can hear is him drinking. Oh, it's disgusting, it's so easy. You can just edit that out, it's so easy. I don't understand. Okay, so get me to this gankfest thing. They talk about, you know, there's all these comedians that are up there and Bonnie's one of the comedians and she has to fall Robert Kelly, who they refer to as Bobby, right? Right. And I hate this thing with standups to his Bobby, right? Right.

And I hate this thing with standups that every set slaughters people. Oh my God, it was fucking killing people. So again, here's, there are a description of Robert Kelly's standup. So I was also on the show if you recall. Oh, yeah, you killed Bobby, like Bobby slaughters. Why was my head wet after Bobby? And Bobby went on and had no problem following him. slaughters. Why was I hit? Why didn't go after Bobby? But Bobby went on and had no problem following him.

And Bobby killed. All right, so according to Rich Boss, Bobby slaughtered the audience. He killed. I've seen Robert Kelly stand up live. He's a funny guy. He does a nice job. I would never describe it one of his sets as slaughtering the audience. Maybe we just weren't at the right one. Well, Jen, I didn't even more research to make sure

that I was right about this. And I called this clip, Robert Kelly is fat jokes. Bob Kelly, all he does is fat jokes. Look at me. I'm overweight. And then that's the next 25 minutes. And here's our quick clip of that. The winter's awful. Oh, you ever see fat guys in the winter? We look hot and cold at the same time. You alright, dude? I think I'm gonna die, man. I'm so hot, but yet I'm cold. I'm sweating.

But I'm freezing. I need ham. Just get me ham. Oh my god. So that's an example. You know, Dave Chappelle, you might say, came in and slaughtered an audience. If this guy lost some weight,

he'd be down to three minutes of material. All of his jokes are about, I'm fat, so sex is awkward, and I fart a lot, and I sweat. It's like, okay. They're good jokes, but come on, let's set over-stated here. Well, according to Rich Voss, he slaughtered. He slaughtered, but body! But body was able to follow that, because buddy's so funny. And here's an example of a Bonnie joke.

And this is again, talking about Twitter deleting everyone's fake followers. Because the only way to have followers, real followers. Wait till Twitter comes and takes all your fake shoes. Ah! Ah! What? Ah!

Good one, buddy. Good one. The funny thing is that these are two people with reputations as stand-up comedians. And you know, Bonnie says jokingly, I don't even want to put this podcast out. It's not good. But they do, obviously. And my question is, what's wrong with them? Who does that? Put that out there in the world. It's going to be out there forever. Exactly.

I asked the irony. Exactly. Why would you do that? Because all of it's bad. None of it's good. It's exactly right. In their own words, let's talk more about Bonnie's jokes. This is, uh, she goes off and this question from her husband. But maybe you could subdivide. You know what subdivide means? Yeah. What? You need to take one ball and you fucking twisted that way and you take your other ball and you twisted the other way. Subdivide your ball sack. Oh, Ron, call me a home run. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Wait, I think I have a drop for that. There's been no laughs! What do we have? No! It's just nothing going on.

Yeah. I was surprised. I thought there'd be at least something about it that I would like, but I really didn't like it. Any other clips that you have that you want to play? If you want to play three. What if your mom finds it and is like, what is that? Talk up, please.

What? I guess your line. You got to engineer, turn it up. Your lines there. Now your lines are perfect. God, you act like you. Oh, so I just have to do this the entire time. No, that's too bad.

No, this is completely normal and natural. Why are you talking like this? Why are you such a crazy person? What are you? Because any time anybody starts doing anything even remotely interesting, you're like, talk up plates. What's that? It's like so annoying.

You've been doing this. We've been doing this fucking stupid podcast for six years. And you cannot figure out how to turn up someone's mic. That's what a fucking board op does. There's no way to turn up the mic or. That's what a fucking board op does. There's no way to turn up the mic or turn them down. Oh, you don't order all those knobs for then. Oh, you're right. I think she's crazy because she's married to Rich Voss. First of all,

that's the that's the gag. Yeah. But the mouth sounds the they talked about that a lot in this podcast too about how he doesn't know how to edit the podcast. Right. And there's a lot of podcasts that don't do a lot of editing. I've noticed. And other ones that I typically steer clear of. I've noticed that.

But then they get to the end of the podcast. Oh. Do you have that? I do. I have track seven. Okay. Bonnie, thank you for joining me. Thank you for having me. I'll see you next week. Okay. Goodbye. No, you know what, ruthless would be, would be instead of me saying Jeff Ross is a fraud, I would call Jeff Ross and say, you're the greatest.

You have that going on for another 24 seconds, but I think that was the point. That was the point. The point was they ended it. Yes. They had done all their plugs and all their stuff, ended it. Then all of a sudden, this phone call with Bobby Kelly, which sounded like garbage, by the way. Yeah.

Just in the middle comes on. I was so confused and then they ended the podcast a second time. It sounded to me like they cut to an older episode. Everyone used to have VHS tapes, or cassette tapes. It need to record a TV show over a movie. Right. And the TV show would end and then the movie would start up.

That's what I think happened. No, what I think happened is they're still sitting there and Bob Kelly calls them. No, what I think happened is they're still sitting there and Bob Kelly calls them. No, you know why? Because Rich at the end of that show starts plugging dates that happened in the past. This show came out on June 18th. All of a sudden it cost to them talking to Bob Kelly in the middle of a conversation. It gets to get into that and he goes, Skank Fest is coming up. Don't forget, don't check me out there. I also have this date this date all this shit that already happened This is an old episode

They were recording over an old episode. They recorded a shorter episode this time And then it was this old episode came in and they uploaded the whole fucking thing You would you record over old episode? No! This is worse than centering John shit. These guys are terrible what they do That's the only thing that I can, there's the only way to explain it. This was not new material. This had to be from an old podcast.

That's bizarre though. It's crazy. Like I said, it's like when you used to have the fucking mexel cassette. Was that what was it, Vaxel? I don't remember. It's so long ago. I could picture him.

I don't know that type of person. What do you say to the cassette tape? And he'd just like, I'm out of blank cassettes, you said recording over old things, and then like, you were sawing ends, and it cuts into another son, that's what that was. But I, oh, well that's even more frustrating. Isn't that frustrating?

It'd be one thing if they, oh Bob's calling, let's turn on the recorder again. That would be one thing, but that's not what that was at all. There's a lot of room on a computer or whatever they're using. Ha ha ha ha. You think? But that's why I don't understand why they wouldn't just keep all of their stuff.

Do you think the computers have hard drives big enough that they don't have to record over the old Joe? No shit, you're on! No shit! No shit, you're on! No fucking shit, sir, what? Alright, I deserve that. But also, were they using an iPad to record it because they are using GarageBand as their

songwriter? They did say GarageBand, which you can have on a Mac as well. I don't know. I'm really obviously not very text-y. Well, neither are they. In fact, I think you can be consultant for them. Hey guys you have a big enough hard drive. Sir to brand new show, don't record over the old one. Sir to brand new track. It's fine. I don't even know how to edit Grudge band. But hold on a second.

I'm not even, how could they even do that? Jen, I don't know. I've never done that. I'm not a complete fucking retard. So I do not know how to do that. But that must be what happened. Because there's no other explanation. If somebody has an explanation, please tell me. I'd love to know how all of a sudden at the end of their show there was another seven

minutes from an older podcast in the middle of a call with Robert Kelly. If you do know, call into our hotline. Dynamite segment. 585, 612, 1388. The W-A-T-P hotline. I have a clip on here that I just call I have a clip on here that I just call liar. This is where Bonnie was talking about the shame she has in doing her podcast that you played before, but this is just not true. But the minute we're done, it's just like, oh. Have you ever, have you ever, have you ever, have you ever, have you ever, have you ever told me something that I said on it?

And I'm like, eh. No one's ever repeated to her something she said on her podcast. That would mean someone listening to it. So there's no way that's true. Could you imagine, hey you guys at that show right now, don't check that out sometime. Cool. Alright, yeah, good seeing you. That's the conversation that goes on. Probably. More than likely. Let's talk again

about Rich Voss and how bad he is at broadcasting. And I know he's been, he's done hundreds of hours of radio with ONA and all sorts of other shows and he's way better at this. Well, I should be way better at this than I am because of his experience. I understand that. But there's this new verbal crutch. I don't know how new it is, but you know. You know.

Is this weird crutch that is just pervasive in our language now? Everybody's using it. So I just want to point out this, you know fast. Yeah, forget about skank fast. Here's Rich Voss's, you know fast. Fucking I toned it down a little on stage. I, you know, I don't do, you know,

I go with the flow, but, you know, at some point, you just got to, you know, I'm just, oh my God. They have nothing to say. There's no reason for this show to ex this episode specifically. They might have better episodes in the past. They've been doing this six years. You think you'd get better, but whatever. Right. Maybe they ran out of material and things to talk about, but just stop putting it out. You don't need a new show if you have nothing to talk about.

And then they have the fucking nerve at the end of all of this dribble where there's just nothing going on to then ask for money. Patreon forward slash Boston Bonnie. Yeah, sign up for Patreon, you know. We could use another hundred followers on Patreon. That would be nice. Why would anyone contribute money to this show? You guys have put zero work into it. You didn't prepare anything. You had nothing to talk about. You started the show

before your wife was even there. You didn't edit it at all. You complained about terrible it was. I had to listen to bleed from an old episode to come in at the end. Why would anyone contribute money to this? There are people who are actually putting work into their pocket. Cumptown puts more work to their podcast. Then my wife hates me. Cumptown. I didn't listen to any other other episode so I didn't need to. I'm only basing it on this one episode. This one episode was not good. But it wasn't good. It's not good. All of it's bad. None of it's good. Let's talk about their theme song. Oh, I'm glad you brought that up. All right. So their theme song comes in at the beginning in the end. It's a little bit weird. It's like Mr. Sandman. It sounds like kind of. DOOM, DOOM, DOOM, DOOM, DOOM, DOOM, DOOM. It's a little bit weird. It's like Mr. Sandman, it sounds like. Kind of. Doom, doom, doom, doom, doom, doom, it's like a 50s,

early 50s pop songy kind of do-up thing. I mean, it was almost as long as your old theme song. Wow, shots fired. Shots fired. Jenner and the Jingles in Parliament. Who's saying on our theme song? I know. It was. It was too long.

I thought maybe by the time we get to the third bridge, I probably could have cut it down. I know, I could have done a better job. Here is their theme song. It is just like our old theme song used to be. It describes their show and all their quirky nuances of being a married couple. She really hates him.

It's really true. New Otters of as a night bomb. And she's just a little as tall. She really hates him. And that is really true. And that's somewhere deep down. She loves him too. All right, a couple of things I want to point out in this song. One is the shoe herding of the phrase.

Some people say that opposites attract, but this seems more like a suicide pact. That was not gonna fit into a song lyric, especially with this melody. Some people say that opposites attract, but he's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Wait, do we syllables into that phrase right there? I'm just curious. I don't know who did that. Like who did that? I just, I don't care.

Okay. Ha ha ha ha ha. You're not a sh**. I'm a sh**. Ha ha ha ha. Who gives a sh**? Who gives a fuck? Why do you want to know who did that?

Cause it was well produced. You want to know what their Patreon is? No, well, no. That's the only well produced thing on the whole podcast. That's true. There was actually some Preparation that what did you like? Maybe that got recorded back with their own serious What's interesting about that song is that for some reason on this comedy show, it's all about How they have a bad marriage even the graphic for the show is Bonnie holding a pillow over?

Like a sleeping rich and she's like about to murder him in his sleep. Oh, that was that, okay. I didn't. What did you think they were having a pillow fight? What did you think that meant? I didn't pay that close attention, but that's not what I thought. What did you think?

I'm curious. I didn't notice she was holding a pillow. I just saw her face in his face. He just thought she was staring at him sleeping. I didn't pay attention, like I said. She's not your cat. She's not just staring at him while he's sleeping. So, the whole premise of the show is that I can't be

when I married this ass hat and I had to put up with them. And then at the end of that song, they have to cap it off with, but deep down she loves them. Like, where did that come from? Well, I hope so. What am I to read? What am I watching an Adam Sandler movie? It's got to end with like this fucking feel good.

It didn't make any sense to me at all. I've seen their stand up. There's none of that element of it. The show had none of that element. They were never like, all right, let's just let Bikas be Bikas. We love each other. But for some reason that song,

I get that stupid payoff at the end. Made zero sets. Yeah. All right. be by God's we love each other but for some reason that song and that's stupid pay off at the end made zero cents yeah all right Jen you have one more clip on the board yes I do do I'm gonna play that sure well I sit here and I listen to you and I think god this is awful this is this is really bad yep that's just part of again her self-deprecation, doesn't like the podcast. The amount of times they talked about how she hated that podcast, I don't know why she does it. I really don't. Check out the big brain on Brad!

It's not a good show. She should be ashamed of it. She should be embarrassed. It wasn't fun to listen to. They had nothing going on. Show up with a little bit of prep. I got him looking at you right now, Jen. He have three pages in notes in front of you. I do. Now I don't know if any of this is in sight for interesting. I'm assuming it's not.

Probably not. But you showed up at the last minute because of our friend, Kevin, who decides that works more important than W-H-P. So misguided, Kevin. You show up, you have notes, you have an agenda, things you wanna say. That's what you do on a podcast.

These dummies are talking about their dryer lint. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. Well, I won't be listening to it again. I guess my point is, anyone who records a podcast with his wife should be shot. Let's move on. It's time for everyone's favorite news segment.

Opie Radio. This week we're actually going to go back to episode 23 again. Last week we talked about episode 23 called your mother where he goes to Mike Buscelli's house on Staten Island. And we played a lot of the conversations going on around meeting all of his family, walking around the house, looking at Mike's toys, a lot of boring nonsense. I listened to about the first 50 minutes of the show and I couldn't take it anymore. Turns out there was a lot of great content coming up that I didn't get to. And it's interesting to know that I happened

to be watching the Chip Chippers and Piotta Cast on YouTube the other way. I know. And at the end of it, YouTube will bring up suggested podcasts to play. This clip from this show came up from OP. He put it up on YouTube. It's like a 23 minute long clip.

It's got 20,000 views so far or so. I saw that and I said, oh, this is interesting. I probably should talk about this. And then I got a note from Brett who said I was disappointed when you guys didn't cover the most cringeworthy part of the show where OP asked loaded questions to his guest co-hosts for 23 minutes and they wash his balls. I've never heard someone with less self-awareness. He says it might be a little bit

inside for non-ONA fans, but it will come across. It's actually very, very interesting. Even if you're not an ONA fan, you don't know all of their relationships and things, I thought that there were clips on here definitely worth talking about because the guy who is Mike Bacetti's Co-host on their podcast is a big O&A fan and he gets right into it He asked some very pointing questions about how everything went down and Opie's answers are very telling Interesting. Have you listened to this podcast at all? Episode 23. No, I have not. All right, first off, the intro to that,

for some reason, because this is overly produced by Westwood one, they have to tell you that they're gonna ask OP questions and that he actually answers them. Okay, all right, we're gonna take a break, Joey, take it away, I'm at Mike Bischetti's house. When we return, the table turns in our host as Bischetti's friend Sal goes into full-roopered pumpkin mode He stirs the episode in a completely different direction and begins dredging up the past as he looks for definitive answers to

Unlock the real mysteries of the universe well the ONA universe. O.B. Rolls with it Now I realize it's pathetic that us O and A fans are still obsessed with the show that's been off the air for five years. And we still, that's all we can talk about. It's all we're interested in is how things went down and what people think about this person and that person. But this show finally gets interesting an hour in. I didn't even get that far because he's talking to there's a fucking Chihuahua barking in the background, they're in the backyard talking about Wi-Fi passwords. Like, who could possibly get this far into a fucking show? I don't know, I listened to last week's episode that you did and I was having a hard time

getting through that segment. It's terrible. Well, EVWATP specifically, I agree, it's not good either. So I keep saying fucking so that it's not a good word to use when I'm trying to segue things. It's just not doing that. Stop doing it. That's my crotch, you know?

I mean, you know? We all have one. Here is, the finally, the OP show gets interesting. He's talking to this guy, Sal. Sal has a Neck tattoo and OP's asking about it. Oh, so it wasn't full Neck tattoo. It was just said the word Sal. Sal has a neck tattoo. And Opie's asking about it. Oh, so it wasn't full neck tattoo. It was just said the word, but it was a lot darker. It's so stupid, right?

What was the word? It's free, Opie. Yeah! He's a bad-ass. Yeah. I just love looking at your reaction on that. The guy's explaining what he had, he had a tattoo on a neck that said free and

Opie goes And the fucking mic steps all over it which pisses me off. I wanted that ice. I wanted the full Yeah, but mic stepped on it's not all I have is I bet you anything if you just listen a little more you get another one of those holy shit that is So in raging it's the opposite of natural conversation I bet you anything if you just listen a little more, you can get another one of those. Holy shit, that is so enraging. It's the opposite of natural conversation. Maybe that is natural conversation. Because he's an awkward dude who does not actually connect with people in real life.

You're correct. You're correct. In fact, I have proof of that later on in the show. This guy does not make actual personal connections with people. He doesn't know how to be a human. He's very odd. He's very odd. He's very odd. Alright, let's get into a clip where they're setting up the discussion.

This one's a little bit of a longer clip, but there's a lot of interesting tidbits that I want to get into in here. All kidding aside, I was devastated when they let me go. It's serious. No, no more devastated is that I can go I can for an hour at least I could name people in the national head Lawners now and big people are on TV all the movies the movie has themselves now to just fucking went What's coming the back on you know, not only he don't have this bad now that was saying all kinds of fucking nonsense and stuff right and you know what Now that was saying all kinds of fucking nonsense and stuff right and you know what I think it's been so much some time. What do you think that's about Mike because look I'm not completely innocent obviously we all have our our issues and we've done things to people So he did all right fair enough so some of the stuff you know is justified

But why do you think that like so many people have now decided they have to stab me in the back and talk shit about me now That I don't have this big radio show So Mike Bacetti says, what's going on here? All these people are talking shit about you and it's because you used to be a big deal, but now they can't get anything from you because you don't have a big show anymore. They're talking shit.

And Hopi's like, oh yeah, I like this guy. What is the deal with that? I don't know, I like your angle. Yeah, exactly. OP's thought process and Mike Bishanti for whatever reason I could probably cause OP came to his house. Their thought process is people are just being dicks

because people are just dicks in general and they were using OP all along because they had a radio show and he could help their career. But I think what's really interesting to note is how OP takes that information about all these people who have turned their back on them or have talked shit about them. And listen to the words he says

when he tries to make sense of why this has happened. Because look, I'm not completely innocent, obviously. We all have our issues and we've done things to people. So, all right, fair enough. So some of the stuff, you know, is justified. O.B says he's been in therapy. He's talked about this a number of times. He's working on himself. He's in therapy. He's helped him become a better person. And he says, you know, I've done my share of things. I have some fault in this. But that is where that whole conversation ends. And I've seen zero evidence that he's actually become a better person at all.

In fact, right after that, he gets into this whole thing where all of his friends are assholes. So it's safe to say a lot of those relationships I had over the years were not real, huh? It depends who it is. It was real because I had the big show and then the show goes away. I really have found out who my true friends are.

Oh yeah, and I found out what a lot of these people are made of. Isn't that interesting? The show goes away and now it turns out that everyone's an asshole but me. Right. If you look around and you think every single person in the world is a bad person except for you, guess what? You're the problem. Right. Because it doesn't matter that you used to have a big show and now you don't when you make relationships and strong relationships with people,

they remain your friend. Because people don't necessarily become friends with people who could help them in life. That's just not how the world works. No, there's some of that going on for sure. Well, sure in a professional setting, but not in a personal setting. I want to go back to when we did the first review of OP radio, when we did the first review of OP radio, Rick Delgado, who was a producer of the OP Anthony show from 98 to 2002, wrote it and said, Bravo, you're take on OP radio. Thank you for listening. So I didn't have to. And he says, Holy shit, you were so dead on. He wrote, I know, Ant already plugged you guys guys and I'll be sharing with a few of the

others who as you mentioned worked for the show but hate that shit dick OP. Everyone from that show dislikes OP because he was an asshole to people and OP has transformed this even though he's in therapies becoming a better person. He's transformed this in his head to, well, everyone's showing their true colors, they're all dickheads. I know, you treat people like shit, they put up with you because they had to, and now they don't have to, they're like, fuck you. Go fuck yourself, which is, I'm sure,

what they wanted to be saying all along. This is him, right after he talks about how everyone's an asshole who he used to be friends with and they showed their true colors He does have to explain that he does still have friends though and and I found out what a lot of these people are made of I still have plenty of friends If you ever heard a 50 something year old man have to explain that he still has plenty of friends That is so sad right there and he stumbles on the word friends and I don't think this is trivial to point out. He tries to say the sentence I still have plenty of friends and he

starts to word friends of the piece. I'm not sure what he's trying to say but listen to us. I still have plenty of friends. He couldn't even say the sentence I still have plenty of friends without He couldn't even say the sentence, I still have plenty of friends. Without his brain going, wait, what? What did we say? I don't think this is right. All I know is that Opie was an asshole and this guy sale ass and point blank.

Everyone's saying that you were an asshole. Is that true? And here's Opie's response to that. Was any of the shit true like that you were just always an asshole behind the scenes? You know, as a fan, I don't know. Uh, I mean, I, unfortunately, uh, played the role of Boss. So that comes with a lot of, uh, tough things you gotta do.

I hired most of the people. I had a fire, most of the people. I had to deal with everyone's issues at, uh, at, uh, at Sirius XM. Were you an asshole? Opie doesn't say no. He goes, well, I was the boss. Well, I know a lot of bosses that aren't assholes. I have been to run a company. I'm the boss and everyone. I'm not an asshole. People enjoy working for me and with me. Yeah. It doesn't make any sense

that it's well, the reason why they hate me is because I was the one who's had to make decisions. We should still be nice to be a part of it. But also when he said he was dealing with people's issues or whatever, didn't he just sit there playing Sudoku? They're most of the broadcasts. I think it was Candy Crush. Well there's Candy Crush and I know you could hear Candy Crush playing in the background from bleed from his mic.

But there was also Sudoku. Oh my God, I know, he had to work so hard. Going to all the meetings and dealing with people's issues. I'm not trying to downplay what he did because he worked hard and achieved much, right? He did. Correct. But then something turned in him and he doesn't have any loyalty from any of these people. So something happened.

If he was a nice guy, he'd still have all his friends. Something must have happened. Because all of the people who were the talent on those shows talk shit about him. Right. Curious. And then when he explains, because sales, asking a lot of really direct questions,

these guys are saying this, what's up with that? And OP2 is credit is not just lying through his teeth as usually he's taking a little bit of the blame. Yeah, okay, I had to do this, I had to do that. But this I thought was a funny explanation for his bad behavior. So it's like who can you nation, a manager. Well some of it. You know, a minute's wait.

And some of it was, certainly some of it was true, but also it's based on very, very old information. I realized. He goes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. minutes went. Some of it was certainly some of it was true, but also it's based on very, very old information. I realized he goes, yeah, yeah, when these guys say I'm an asshole and I was terrible to work with, it's true, but that's based on old information. Still information. That's information. Not incorrect. He's not saying that that's wrong. He's just saying that that's older differently. Yeah, that's that's how we know about people's personality over the years from old information History that's how that works. I didn't like working with that guy. What are you basing that on old information? Well, then why are we even talking about it?

And he explains that he used to be a dick because he had anger issues Realize a long time ago that I kind of had an anger problem. Like I would be frustrating with people around me and I would yell and scream, who does it? Thank you. But I would yell and scream to try to get my way and try to get my point across. Realize when you do that, even though you know you're right with what you're saying, no one's going to listen to you. They think you're complete and other ass. So this guy is describing a personality disorder. He's doing it in plain English. He knows he was right, and he would yell and scream at people,

but then he learned was not how to have a productive conversation, understand the other person's point of view, try to come to a compromise. No, none of that. What he learned was when you yell at people, they think you're an asshole, so you shouldn't yell at people, but you are right, you yell at people, they think you're an asshole, so you shouldn't yell at people. But you are right, and they're wrong, and you use a different way to get your point across.

And this again is him explaining that you can't yell at people, but he's not addressing the underlying issue of why he wants to yell at people in the first place. I should finish that, though. So then I knew that was one of my issues. I've worked on a lot of my issues over the years and I'm like you can't yell at anyone anymore No, everyone just looks at you like you're a complete another ass So projection is going through. Yeah, so that that's like that's really old news the days when I was kind of You know an asshole and that's the funny thing

In opi's mind I don't think he listens directly to what Anthony is saying or some of these other people. I think he's hearing about it third hand probably. But he's saying that what they're complaining about is you see yellow people. That's not what they're complaining about at all. OP was actually the opposite of that. He was just being a passive aggressive douche. He wasn't being nice to people. He wasn't making eye contact. When he was pissy with someone, he wouldn't talk to them or look at them for weeks at a time.

When the contract negotiations would come up, he would hold everyone hostage. And no one knew if they were gonna have a job next week because he was like holding out to resign. When everyone else was just like, let's just sign a five year deal or 10 year deal. Let's just get this locked up. This is a sweet gig.

Opie was the guy who was rooting it for everyone and keeping everyone stressed out all the time. But in his mind, he's going, they can play in that used to yell, but I stopped doing that. No, you are an asshole. You are an asshole. Whether you're yelling at people

or you're just being a passive aggressive douche, there's no difference. It's still you. It's still your attitude, that's the problem. Oh. This is where you started to check out. No, I'm not checking out. I'm doing it.

It gets too to be too much. It's just, it's very intense. All right, I'm sorry. I'll comment down. This is, Don't comment down on my account. This is OP explaining that he was the odd man out when it came to OP Anthony and Jimmy Norton.

And I'll admit this today too, like when you have three guys, you're gonna have two that are tighter. And I was definitely the odd man out. But sometimes the guy- Because Jimmy and Aunt got really close and bonded and you know, maybe at that point, you know, they should have just kind of moved on

and done their own thing. Is that an unbelievable statement? Those two got along with each other because they weren't decks and they were both funny. And so they enjoyed each other's company. Right. And OP in his mind says, well then why don't they just move on and do their own thing? Could you imagine if Ringo Star felt that way? You know, it got to the point where John and Paul were just writing all the songs. I wasn't even part of that thing.

They should have just fucking done their own thing and done the John and Paul band. Like, Opie, you were part of the Opie and Anthony's show. You were the Ringo Star and the Opie and Anthony's show. A giant. Enjoy it. You're a fucking mediocre talent with Anthony and Jim. Why are you fucking loving that?

Instead, he hated it. He hated that he wasn't the biggest fucking star in the band. He wasn't Paul McCartney. So he eventually got to a point where he was off on his own and he brings in talents such as Shroud Small and Vic Henley and he gets fired and you know the rest is history obviously. But I just thought that was so funny. These guys are buddies. So they should have just done their own thing. Doesn't make any sense. No, it doesn't make any sense.

If you guys were all part of this together, it doesn't matter what your personal relationships were. Well, obviously it does. For him, obviously it does. But this was a professional show where you showed up and made a big paycheck to put out a show. Yeah. I mean, I guarantee that nobody at Fox liked Bill O'Reilly.

And yet for 12 years or however long that guy was on fucking TV making millions of dollars for everyone, everyone just showed up and did their fucking job. It wasn't like they were going to birthday parties on the weekends with each other. Oh, certainly not. And then Opie explaining that he will give credit. But he doesn't say I'll give credit where credit is due, which is what you should do. Well, me and Anthony started and he literally didn't know anything about this business. He was a quick learner and really knows what he's doing. You know, I'll give props when it when it's necessary, but I'll give props when it's necessary. He's literally saying,

I'll give credit when I have no choice. Because words matter. He goes, I'll give props when it's necessary. I'll give credit where creditors do. Anthony was a quick study. He learned the business. He's really good at it. No, he can't say that. I know I'm nitpicking a little bit Wow, but I want to get back into this. He's no word Smith So I want to get back to this thing where he has to say that well, there are people Who deserted me and you know, they're no longer my friends and I found out who these people really are This is the guy who's supposed to be working on himself in therapy.

They're complaining about how he was behind the scenes. This is his response. But I heard Jim Norton say something one day. He said, you know, Opie wasn't saying things on the air about it, but that's why a lot of stuff never came out out about how he was behind the scenes. So what I'm not gonna- But Jimmy was no treat behind the scenes.

Anthony was no treat behind the scenes Anthony was no treat behind the scenes They know this is the guy was working on himself. He's just pointing fingers This guy goes it turned these guys are saying that you're an asshole They had a walk on Greg shells behind the scenes and open response isn't I Definitely handled things incorrectly. I've learned from that which would be an adult response. Or he could rebut it completely, which at this point would be tough because it's well documented. He's a fucking asshole. And then he goes, those guys were also dicks. They got to dig. So is that guy? Where are we going with that argument? That's where you're. All right. I want to point out that OP Greg Hughes is a professional broadcaster.

20's done his entire life. Sure is. And I listen to a lot of podcasts that aren't professional broadcasters. And I point out the flaws in their broadcasting, but OP, that's going to be tough. Because he doesn't have those verbal crutches. He doesn't have things where he says, I mean, you know, the fact is, I mean, I don't wanna go, I don't wanna, I mean, we already went into the mud,

but I mean, you know, the fact is, oh wait, no, he does, he's terrible. The only other clip that I wanna play from episode 23 of OP Radio is Mike Bissetti. He does say something that I totally agree with. And this is coming from a guy who wants to a Twitter try to get him fired. I hate social media because Twitter, Reddit, Facebook,

a full fucking morons, the rest holes, the fucking Twitter warriots, you know what I mean? I'm with you out of that. And when I say this is coming from a guy, I'm talking about me, of course. Hahaha. Fun stuff. Uh, that's all I have on the OP segment for this week.

Jen, anything to add? I just, I'm really glad that I didn't have to listen to the podcast. The OP podcast. You should be. All right, I want to talk about a recent review. I've been getting a lot of positive reviews lately, which is weird.

Now I used to that. That is weird. A lot of positive reviews lately. I want to read one that came in from the night prowler on July 22nd titled Pure Garbage. And the night prowler says, he says, these guys are nothing but misogynist alt-right shitlords with nothing better to do than criticize other people's podcasts. I'd never miss an episode. Five stars all the way.

Oh, that's nice. That's what we're talking about. Should all of us give us a positive five star review, as long as the stars are five, we can hopefully overcome the 282 one star reviews that we currently have on the show from a lot of but-hurt podcast hosts over the years. There show from a lot of but hurt podcast hosts Over the years there's been a lot of them. I still get people finding us the host of Joe on Joe

Which was a GI Joe podcast or reviewed back in like episode 11 or something like that? It wasn't that like in the single digits. Yeah, there is years ago. Yeah, it might have been episode 7 I don't know years ago and he just finally found our podcast and sent me, I don't know, years ago. And he just finally found our podcast and sent me a shitty note. I got a fuck you guys kind of thing. Meanwhile, dude, you do a GI Joe podcast. You don't think someone's gonna make fun of you? Really? Put it out there. I'm just telling you what your friends are saying behind your back. You know, that's my job. It's just put it out there. All right, yeah, what else we have to talk about? Anything else interesting going on? I don't know. How's the dryer going? Oh, well, well, I got to check the Lint trap I guess. Yeah, Lint traps going okay? Typically what we would do at this stage of the show is we would play

That thing. Oh, you're not gonna play. We're not gonna do that this week, and I'll tell you why. It's a weird week this week. Next weekend, we're taking off. My band has a big show, The Isotopes, and then we're traveling to New York City to be out in the Anthony Cuminous show. What? I know. So we have a busy weekend, busy week.

So we're taking next week off, and I decided we need something totally different. I'm not going to commit to a fucking show that I have to do two weeks from now. When I have no idea who the co-host is going to be and what's going to be out there, I'm just going to not even tickle your balls to the fat of this week. Wow. I know. Have you been in therapy? Obviously not. I'm not going to tease people. I'm going to expect that they show up and listen when we come back live.

Well, not live podcasts are rarely live. Live. All of it's bad. None of it's good. When we come back in two weeks with a new show, I should say, I'm expecting that people will want to show up and find out we have to say because it's very likely to be a victory lap. There's probably going to be a lot of licking our own balls. Yeah, yeah, a lot of that. A lot of feathers up our asses. A lot of things. A lot of things to celebrate. All the amazingness that was our appearance on the Anthony Kumya show.

Or if I don't talk about it ever again, it's because we got bumped or we got already bombed miserably, or maybe Anthony just roasted us the whole time and was never a fan, this was all a setup. There's a lot of different scenarios where I just pretend this never happened and I go back to this show and edit all this part out and we just pretend none of this ever happened. Well, you do know how to edit things. So Jen, you don't have to live with that.

I got to tell you, it is time to wrap things up. We have a ween show to get to tonight. Yeah. With that said, we hope that you join us again in two weeks because it might be the episode where we find out once and for all Who are these podcasts? Sleep well every pony This dude is fucking corny You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome!

You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! You're awesome! I think they click the ball!

Podcasts. I don't know. I don't get it.

Makes no sense. You should take it from me, Kevin and Carl Slapping bags day and night. Slapping bags to the left and the right. They won't seek five stars on our tunes reading. I'm not the best, I'm the best, I'm the best. From now to the end of December. It's not always fun, but you know that there's done with it's great. That makes me proud. I know. You know, I think there's a lot of new listeners who don't know why Jen is Jen from the Jingle's department.

Well, in that case, I wanted to play the first one. That's my favorite one. What was the first one? The Gold Finger. Oh right. And I should mention that there was a review we got early on that said we were a couple of guys just slapping their bags on the couch. I know. And that's how we got the moniker of the bag slappers. Whoever that guy was. Still one of my favorite reviews of all times. and you slap their backs on the couch such a cold finger

slapping back and touching their full skin call and give in Yeah, I think I wrote the lyrics touching their foreskin in order to shoehorn in Carlin Kevin like that rhyme He was disappointed and you didn't like it you didn't like that I wrote that line and then Kevin goes What do we talk about foreskin for I'm a Kevin come on help me out here. We're trying to work in the name of the people on the show. So pretend that you're the only one writing jingles and recording jingles around here. Let's not forget about this one. This is my masterpiece. Brave jokes.

That one. That's where. That's a fun one, right? We can all agree on that. We can all agree on one. That's where. That's a fun one, right? Yes. We could all agree on that.

Oh, fun. We could all agree on that. All right, Jen. I feel like we did not... I did not do a great job of explaining this OP... dissecting this OP shit. I thought you were very clear. You're really?

Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I like it. It was very odd. The way he was responding to this person With this I wasn't asshole, but fuck those guys They're just don't like me anymore cuz I don't have a big show It's a weird angle maybe sad Everything makes you sad. Well, I'm sad. We're doing a comedy show. He's so dissolution though. He's insane

All right a lot of people are insane We're doing comedy show. He's so disillusioned though. He's insane. All right. A lot of people are insane. Most of them are homeless, so he's doing pretty well for himself. That's true. He's the other end of the spectrum. Yeah. Time to quit talking.
