Also, we encourage our listeners to give us a five-story view on Apple podcasts, and then shit all over in the comments section. Today we'll be reviewing a show called Comedy Pot Pie. This is a suggestion from Aaron Crowell.

Starting point is 00:01:53 I've listened to the show. Shoeley's about to hear it for the first time and we're going to get into it here. This is a show hosted by Michael Wayne Jr. and his producer, Alyssa Shea, and let me start off by reading the description of the show. I think this is very important to set the mood of what we're about to hear. Michael Jayland is a comedian. He says, take a trip through the dark mind of comedian Michael Wayne as he discusses everything he's not supposed to for the next hour. Nothing is off limits. discusses everything he's not supposed to for the next hour, nothing is off limits. This is gonna be a G.

Starting point is 00:02:35 You know what's funny is people who have that nothing is off limits, uh, moniker, everything's off limits. Right. Anyway, with those people, that's what I realized too, because some of the hot takes that he has are things that I wouldn't necessarily call edgy. Right. This is his take on on breakfast. Some of the hot takes that he has are things that I wouldn't necessarily call edgy. Right. This is his take on on breakfast. He's now he's not a fan of breakfast. They get into a whole discussion about calories and exercising. And he lost 10 pounds this month.

Starting point is 00:02:57 A comedy show, you know, about calories. Yeah. You're not going to hear that on any other podcast. I'm finally someone is to talk about it. It's about time. So this is take on breakfast. Lately, I've been trying to kind of eat like an early lunch. Oh, I'm the world, I don't eat breakfast.

Starting point is 00:03:14 I hate breakfast. I hate breakfast here, I never use breakfast. So I hate mornings. I hate everything about breakfast. I hate that mornings exist. I hate that people are actually cheery enough in the morning to want to eat breakfast. I hate that mornings exist. I hate that people are actually cheery enough in the morning to want to eat breakfast. Like, what are you talking about? This is like the Garfield of hot takes right here. I think it's like one day's that much

Starting point is 00:03:34 either. He's coming at it. Like, it's like, it's somebody's asking them to learn the Latin more language, you know? Like, like, it's breakfast, dude. It shouldn't be that, if that's a hurdle in life, breakfast, you got a it's breakfast, dude. It shouldn't be that, if that's a hurdle in life, breakfast, you got a tough road ahead of you. Oh, no, Julie, I don't do fucking breakfast, Julie. I'm not a breakfast guy, all right? This is my hot, drink voice. I don't even get it.

Starting point is 00:03:54 I don't even get morning. Who gets up in the morning? What is that about? So he goes on to explain that when you go out to eat breakfast at 8.30 and then you come back home. What the fuck are you gonna do that? And I get back home. It's like 9.30 in the morning. I just eat in a full breakfast. Now it's 9.30 in the morning.

Starting point is 00:04:12 But what do you want me to do with my life right now? Yeah, I know. So I go back to bed. Do I, like, what am I supposed to do at 9.30 in the morning? Just sitting here. I don't think anything's funny about this. I can't write jokes right now. I'm just wide awake at 9.30 in the morning, just sitting here. I don't think anything's funny about this. I can't write jokes right now. I'm just wide awake at 9.30 in the morning. Just I just ate some fucking waffles. Right.

Starting point is 00:04:32 Who cares? What was the point of that? I wonder what time of day he can write jokes at. Cause I don't see any evidence that this guy's writing jokes. Julie, have you ever been awake at 9.30 and wondering what the fuck am I gonna do with myself? Yeah, and listen, I'm amazed that this guy even successfully got a podcast out into the world because, you know, he seems to be stumped by just normal everyday activity.

Starting point is 00:04:57 I mean, it's not something. What am I supposed to fucking do right now? I mean, what can you do at 930? Anything. Like literally the answer is anything. You you do at 930? Anything, like literally the answer is anything. You can do it at 930 A.M. Is he also claiming that he cannot write on an empty stomach or on a full stomach?

Starting point is 00:05:12 Which one is it? Because I think it's both. I think the answer. Or is it just sheer boredom? He's just not in, in, in writing mode because he's so bored with nothing to do. I wonder what this guy does because Alyssa mentions he doesn't have a nine to five job and he calls himself a comedian.

Starting point is 00:05:29 So I'm wondering if he actually makes a living from comedy. I can't imagine he does. I mean, I have not heard of this gentleman's name, so I cannot turn around. You don't know Michael Lane Jr. What are you big timing this guy now, Shuley, is that what you're doing? I'm just saying, maybe we don't run in the same circles.

Starting point is 00:05:46 I haven't played a lot of youth hostels 10 awhile, so maybe... All right. Maybe I'm just missing the game. The most recent episode, which came out in April 14th. So I don't know if like this is the end of the show or what's going on, because they're coming out weekly before that. It starts off so fucking annoying because Michael has been drinking and he thinks he's very entertaining when he's drunk. I feel like I drink way too much to accept the amount of responsibility that

Starting point is 00:06:16 further goes on to this. So I will pass this over to a list of shea. Shay, what's your Shay? Can you handle it? Karina! What's your Shay? Karina! Is that what show starts? By the way, that's how my show ended last night. I swear this guy was in the audience. He'd sit there begging me to go to a strip club with him. And yeah, you can't get more annoying than that. If you're not good doing the show sober,

Starting point is 00:06:50 you probably shouldn't attempt it hammered either. Well, I do this crazy thing, Julie, where I assume an any given episode that I'm doing, someone's listening for the very first time. It's their first time hearing, who are these podcasts? And I wanna have a good impression for them. This fucking guy is sabotaging his own show. I'm a pro.

Starting point is 00:07:07 I'm a pro. I'm a pro. Welcome everybody to the ice for the fuck you, Michael. Welcome everyone to episode seven of The Comedy Pop High Podcast. I'm a pro. So, I went ahead and I did a little annoying super cut. This is from the first four minutes of the episode. I'm too easy. You're going to blow her. My god. You're going to blow her.

Starting point is 00:07:52 My god. Why am I that? Like he's literally trying to piss everybody off who might be possibly listening to the show. It doesn't make any sense to me. Why you would do that? Are you sure he's not just doing an impression of a vacuum that someone's for that to turn off? He's not doing an impression of a vacuum, although I'm sure my cat would run away from that podcaster. I guarantee you that. That is horrific.

Starting point is 00:08:14 Like at what point, who says to him when he's drunk, you should do a podcast like this. This would be really good. I can't imagine that everyone else would hang out with the guy when he's drunk. Let alone listen to his show. So that annoying noisy was making. Actually, Jen from the Jingle Department was next to me when I was listening to this. And she thought it sounded like this. Look you guys, the sun's rising! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Oh, dad, how long are the days on this planet? Uh, computer, how long are the days on this planet?

Starting point is 00:08:48 42 hours. So that is from Rick and Morty. You watch Rick and Morty, Julie? Yeah, that was great. They go to the planet, the sun is screaming the entire time. That's what this guy's show is. It's a screaming sun in the sky all day. I've labeled this the most obnoxious

Starting point is 00:09:07 podcaster ever you do you ever punish people that suggest podcasts that infuriate you like no they punish me you should I should I'm gonna threaten to lawsuit against this guy Because I'm mad at you You didn't listen to the show. Can you imagine if you would listen to this? Oh, you know how mad I would be if I listened to this fucking show? I would never show it up. I would abandon myself from your show.

Starting point is 00:09:34 So I've now shown how annoying this Michael Wayne guy is. Oh, this is not much better. Her voice sucks. This is just a sample of her voice where for once he doesn't interrupt her within 10 seconds of time, which is amazing so that you can get a sense of what she sounds like. Um, this week I decided that we would kind of take a little bit of a turn. I know that you live at home alone with your brother pretty much. Um, and so let me ask you, first of all, what do you use to clean your like hard wood or tile flooring? How many cigarettes does it take to get a voice like that?

Starting point is 00:10:11 She's, she did her 20s this woman. What? Nothing is off limits. How would you know? To clean your tile or floor? Thank you for, thank you for bringing that up again because it really is the most mundane conversations. They have.

Starting point is 00:10:32 It sounds like it sounds like the newest student at the Joan Rivers impersonation school. Yeah, it definitely sounds like a woman who has lived a long hard life. Yeah, she's, she, if you look up mental in the dictionary, there's a picture of her actually. If you look up menthol in the dictionary, there's a picture of her actually. All right, so getting back to the drunk episode real quick, this is them, actually it sounds like they're doing some post-production work here,

Starting point is 00:10:56 which is what annoyed me even more, because I'm thinking, okay, if you're gonna edit shit, like you can edit out all this annoyance that's just gonna piss people off. But you tell me what you think when you hear this, She'll be give me your two truths in a lie. All right Twice I felt I wanted to kill everyone in this house Once I felt I deserved it true Which could it be?

Starting point is 00:11:19 You gotta give me one more that's too truth you gotta give me a lie and a lie That's too truth. You gotta give me a lie and a lie So I don't know if they're hitting that on the spot or if they're putting it because they have these little musical Interludes that go on throughout the show for no reason and then just come back again Maybe someday they think they're gonna have an advertiser or something. I don't know But I'm gonna give you another example where they actually Do have a joke a laugh and then hit the post as if it's a professional radio show, which I was born away by because nothing else in here is professional. Florida man turns himself in for murdering imaginary friend.

Starting point is 00:11:57 So out of place. They seem to have cornered the market on the noine. I mean, everything from what they're talking about to the music that they play. It's just I want to grab this podcast and punch it in the face. I believe Body McFarland said it best, what she said. All of it is bad. None of it is good. All of it is bad. I agree with the queen. Yes. So this is a list of Shay's, Cleese Shay's, a new segment that they're they're gonna do and now we have a new segment called a list of Shays cliches yeah where I'm going to once in a while I'm not gonna commit to this every week because that's a lot of work

Starting point is 00:12:34 Once in a while I'm gonna take a cliche Adam Zappel fucking, you know ducks in a row whatever the fuck and I'm gonna give it a backstory Who gives a shit who gives a fuck? This is a really bad idea for a bitch of the fuck and I'm argue is not a cliche. It's a joke. But so I thought maybe because I think like someone who's good at podcasting, I thought maybe she would actually give the backstory who originated the joke or where it came from. No, she makes up a horse shit story about a fucking chicken and his family that led him to be have suicidal thoughts and want to cross a road

Starting point is 00:13:31 and travel. And it goes out forever and it's hard for it to even get to the story because this guy keeps interrupting her and she gets upset. Can I fucking please tell the story? God, Tell me three. Yeah, no, go ahead. God! Oh! I'm gonna lose my voice even harder, dude. Oh, that's a threat. If you think I lost my voice now, you just wait, young man.

Starting point is 00:13:54 Next cliche. Um, I have to fuck her, but you... Oh, man, let's just go. Uh, alright, here's the chicken story. After three minutes goes by, she finally gets into it. So everybody wants to know why the chicken crossed the road, but nobody ever asks what the chicken was feeling when he did it. Life was finally starting to look up.

Starting point is 00:14:15 The chicken's wife, Henrietta, had just gotten a job at the local incubation center. So that gives you a taste of what we're talking about here. She gives a whole backstory about this fucking chicken family and all the shit that goes on. And it's unnecessary. It's unfunny. I actually agree with Michael on this point here.

Starting point is 00:14:33 The chicken did six long months there before he was let out just to find himself is down on his clock. Huh? As he was before he went to the joke. I got the joke. You don't have to say, huh? I... The chicken was down at its clock, surely. I got the joke. I got the joke. You know how to say, huh? I The chicken was down at its clock. Surely. Oh God. I love it. He's pulling the plug. He's like,

Starting point is 00:14:53 but the mayor, the mayor of awful's like, this is bad. Yeah, that's not as funny as how I don't like breakfast. All right. Oh, that's so we got to up our game here. We got curl from WTP, what's the thing? I would debate that he got the joke too. You know, I'm that's in debate. I don't even think he did. That's a good point. But he's got some jokes for this story too. He's got hilarious jokes like this one. Within the following few months, the chicken's drinking,

Starting point is 00:15:21 starting getting worse and worse. Chicken's drinking. So it was like, it was like, um, uh, beer can chicken. Yes, he was shoving cans of beer up his ass. Beer can chicken. So beer can't. And the story. No, chicken.

Starting point is 00:15:36 Fucking listen. All right. Dynamite drop in money. That broadcast school is really paid off. Oh my god. Take a trip through the dark mind of comedian Michael podcast school is really paid off. Oh my God. Take a trip through the dark mind of comedian Michael Wayne Jr. as he discusses everything he's not supposed to. For the next hour, nothing is off limits.

Starting point is 00:15:58 Nothing is on limits either. There's nothing is going on. I love these people who write their own descriptions. And maybe they think that the show's going to get good someday. I may be well. I don't know, but it's not an app description at this point How many episodes of these guys done in the show eight? Oh my god I can't believe they got to eight. I know it's amazing. It's impressive He's one of these guys and again, this is on the drunk episode But he's one of these guys who he thinks of a song, and he has to just keep singing it, which is super obnoxious, even when you're not doing a show, that's like what retards do.

Starting point is 00:16:33 Anyway, here's an example of that. So this bitch hates sushi, and then she noticed she had a lump on the side of her nose, and then she noticed like I love started is in my head Nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-uh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-n But it was your lump And that was lump All right, so what it's lump it's lump it's lump it's lump is in my bed But you disregard it lump this is going great I know it's not really I want to break my phone. I mean this is violent dude Yeah, the first of all what's going on in her life that she's still staying there

Starting point is 00:17:35 That's like what so bad What's on the other side of those doors that she's running from where she's you know hitching her wagon to this running from where she's, you know, hitching her wagon to this. Well, it's funny. You say that. But this guy's a lot older than she is. This is not a young man that we're listening to. This is a guy who's been there, done that. And this is what he's doing with his life right now. But it's funny you bring that up,

Starting point is 00:17:57 Julie, because she does talk about how she's getting into therapy. She's, she's back in therapy again. And she says something here. See if you can figure out why I pulled this clip, the thing that jumped out at me. I always say I don't know why I pay like $100 a month to talk to a therapist when literally the best thing, the one thing somebody can say that makes me feel better no matter what is it be like that sometimes. Any guesses on why I pulled that clip? It'd be like that sometime? Any guesses I'm why I pulled that clip

Starting point is 00:18:28 It'd be like that sometime that's what you're $100 a month is zero right? What the fuck is that? $100 a month in therapy. I'm guessing it's a world's greatest therapist. Yeah, is there a tip jar? It's probably just a homeless guy under a bridge that she talks Yeah Yes. It gives him like $3 or something. Dude, better help cost more than that. And that's a scam internet service. Although, unless they want to advertise a WOTP, then they're great. Use promo code for a bar.

Starting point is 00:18:53 Nice save, Carl. Yeah, nice save, dude. Mm. Mm. That was a month on therapy. So I'm assuming she sees a therapist once a month for 10 minutes? Hey, right? I mean, it's a fucking, you have to go to school for that shit. Okay. We get that therapist on a podcast. That's the guess.

Starting point is 00:19:14 Seriously. I thought to. So now, as you know, this guy, Michael, Lane's a comedian. So he's got hot takes on everything. He's got a hot dick on therapists. He doesn't see a therapist. So he's got hot takes on everything. He's got a hot dick on therapists. He doesn't see a therapist, but if he were to, this is his hot take. I feel like if you're a therapist, you should be nuts. You know what I mean? You should be the fucking craziest person on the fucking planet.

Starting point is 00:19:39 Oh, you know what? I'm gonna warn everybody right now. This is a long clip. So that's the basic premise. If you're gonna be a therapist, you should also be nuts. Listen to how many times she tags his own joke here. Tell me how you get through your life as a fucking psycho. Like, if I'm talking to a therapist, I want to be like, who's your therapist? Like, I don't know. Well, he's actually been to, he's actually been locked

Starting point is 00:20:02 up in a psych ward 16 times. And like, it's actually amazing that he's still fucking functional. That's your therapist. I'd be like, thank you fucking God. Instead of just being like, oh, who's your therapist? Oh, this guy who read six textbooks by no one who has any of the problems that I have. I want to, I want to talk to the person who killed 17 newborns for no reason Other than he was just a fucking psycho and then I want him to be like well here's let me tell you why I Let me tell you why you did that and I'd be like holy fuck right this guy gets it Don't say shit for a tension. It's not cute. So sure you're gonna steal that for your act tonight

Starting point is 00:20:40 I Mean it's just it's so infuriating. And let me tell you who I'm most angry at, is that Joan Rivers. For laughing. She's laughing at it. For laughing. For laughing. She's instigating this.

Starting point is 00:20:57 If this guy was in a silent room with no one reacting to these jokes, which is exactly what they deserve, then he wouldn't continue doing this show. So it's her fault. I'd love to see him in front of a live audience with these hot takes that he has. It just be so much fun to watch. He would last two minutes on stage in front of an audience before either he kills himself or they kill him. Someone's dying. All right, so this is not to be out Donna. Lisa also has hot takes. This is her hot take here.

Starting point is 00:21:30 I fucking hate the name Pfizer by the way. Like who? How dare you put a P and then an S and then an IZ like what are you doing? Boom. Hot take and Julie. Don't get her started on Xerox. She does five minutes on Xerox.

Starting point is 00:21:43 They're fucking crutches. It's the fun. It's the fucking off limit. Can you believe how Pfizer is spelled? Whoa, how are these guys not de-platformed already? This is crazy. This is not, man. Cancel culture's gonna come running after them. Oh wait, wait until you get the word out.

Starting point is 00:22:01 This is gonna be rough. So the thing that I picked up on with this Michael Wayne character is that he's a big Anthony Jocelneck fan. Are you familiar with Anthony Jocelneck? Sure, absolutely. So Anthony has a very specific style and especially when he does his podcast, which we're gonna talk about in a little bit, he has a very specific style with how he sets things up and how he tells jokes. This is Michael starting off the show with what he thinks is an Anthony Jesselnik joke and it's really just a bad impression.

Starting point is 00:22:32 Live from Detroit, Michigan, where last night I shook a man's hand who only had two fingers. The person I was with said that was gross, but I said, what are you talking about? That's 60% less germs. This is the comedy pop-py. I don't hear you laughing over there producer Chris.

Starting point is 00:22:57 It's because you've already heard that joke. Wow. It's a hackneyed bit. It's not great. And it just goes to show. It can be the oldest joke in the world, but if you can't tell a joke, it's never going toed bit. It's not great. And it just goes to show it can be the oldest joke in the world But if you can't tell a joke, it's never gonna be funny. Right. I could tell this guy cannot tell a joke Because I listened to two episodes of his podcast and only cringed

Starting point is 00:23:17 Wasn't the only one. Yeah, I mean, I can tell I could tell too because he has yet to do an actual joke That he's written and the only joke he's done was a jessermick one that he mangled. And here is proof that his show sucks. My mom, my mom listened to the podcast for the first time ever. And she was not a fan. Of course she was not a fan. Who would be a fan of this show?

Starting point is 00:23:44 If your own mother doesn't like the show, who's going to like it? I'll put it out there right now. If there's somebody out there who is a fan, like legit fan of the show, listens to the show and joins it. Call in next week. I will have you on. I want to talk to you. I want to learn who these people are who are listening to comedy pod pie. I mean, the fans have to be allowed to use the phone once a week. I would imagine. We'll accommodate you if it's your one phone call. We'll make sure to accommodate you on that. But please call Ed. It's brutal. I have yet to hear

Starting point is 00:24:19 it show this brutal. I mean, it's really, really bad. It's bad. Both are both are at fault. And having my own podcast, I'd be totally fine with shutting all podcasts down forever. Okay. So just so these two can't brought just to eradicate these two. Yeah. Mutual destruction is the only answer. I'd go down with that shit. All right. So he goes into a story and it's full of lies. There's no way any of this is true. He's talking about how he used to work at Hooters and there was a girl that he worked with

Starting point is 00:24:51 that carved his name into her leg. So let's start off by proving that this is just all other nonsense and bullshit. My first ever job way back in the day when I was a little sprout was I was a, my first real job was I was a manager of a hooters in Michigan Bullshit, that's how that works your first job is not managing a hooters. That's actually never how that works I mean it does if your dad owns the hooters, but actually But yeah, they just maybe they just saw his

Starting point is 00:25:24 But actually, but yeah, they just maybe they just saw his Pizzas with his wow and they were just like, hey, this guy's got to run the place. This guy's edgy. He's so charismatic in the interview that they're like, I don't know, this guy's got management material written all over him. How do you feel about breakfast? Call me crazy, but I feel like there's nothing off limits with this guy. All right. So here's more of this fucking horseshit story. I one time we were all getting ready in the morning and a girl had carved My name into her leg with a knife with a knife. Okay, so when you say it was the night before so we're not talking about

Starting point is 00:26:03 Like a healed scar Right like how deep. So we're not talking about like a healed scar. We're talking about open wounds with like a knife knife, like a real knife. All right, so this is not true. Of course not. This would not happen. I know that girls cut themselves and I'm aware of that. But to write someone's entire name,

Starting point is 00:26:24 you kind of wise up at a certain point and self-cutting yourself. And it gets even crazier here. And he's not a morning guy. And he's not. Yeah, he's something that's there the morning. It goes without saying. But it looked pretty gnarly at the time. I was gonna see like how deep was it for you. Oh, deep. It was deep. It looked like, because she said there was also blood everywhere and she also took the blood on her fingers and painted my name on the wall No one told me there was gonna be boasting Fuck is he talking about is this getting so stupid now and he's presenting this is if this is fact Yeah, I mean he clearly watched some movie the night before and you know woke up in a fever dream

Starting point is 00:27:06 watch some movie the night before and you know woke up in a fever dream and now thinks he lived that experience. He's out of his mind. I've been he's never even fucked a hooter's girl. I'm gonna throw that out there. I think nobody would carve his name into a treat. Uh so it's already we're already starting to see some tension here between these two hosts where Alyssa's not enjoying getting interrupted and this guy's shenanigans. He's being annoying again on this show and she says this. Are we going to do the thing we did last week where you just kept yelling the same word like 30 times? Nope, go ahead. Okay.

Starting point is 00:27:39 Because this guy is one of these guys who thinks that if you do something enough times it eventually will become funny and he's not correct about that. It does not eventually become funny when you keep screaming a word over and over. Let's call them asshole. Right, it's the industry term for that. Right. So I want to play some examples of how this guy just,

Starting point is 00:27:59 doesn't let Alyssa even talk. He's just constantly interrupting her and it's really fucking annoying. You didn't even let me finish the fucking sentence. All right, because I already assumed. Okay, well now I gotta restart. I already assumed my blah blah. So that was my train of thought.

Starting point is 00:28:13 I didn't know which word I had. And then you just dominate them. Fucking goddammit, you and your dominance. All right. But go ahead with your, with your, you're not good enough. Now I'm gonna restart. But how could I trick someone into thinking I'm good enough?

Starting point is 00:28:25 Go ahead. This is how, if you fucking listen. Yeah, go ahead. God damn. All right, I gotta restart now, because I don't know where I left off. No, restart. Always.

Starting point is 00:28:34 I allow you to restart. Do you even need me for the podcast? No, that's what I've been trying to tell you since literally day one. I allow you to get a little piece. Yeah, well, have fun figuring out the sound board next week. Yeah, that's fine. So anyway.

Starting point is 00:28:51 Oh, this is like, yeah, okay, well good luck. I run the sound board. I love that she has to restart because she doesn't remember the words she left after. Do you remember the gist of what you were talking about? Can you just kind of pick up from there? No. Wow.

Starting point is 00:29:08 Did I love that he's just shit, daughter? He's like, I don't need you for this. I can fail on my own. Right. And I love that this guy refuses to get better too. Ah, I mean, I don't see anything wrong with our podcast this far. Yeah, don't take a critical ear to your own stuff and I'll don't

Starting point is 00:29:25 reassess anything. It's got it's all great. You're doing amazing. Keep it up. You're saying you he refuses to get better. That's like me saying I refuse to get tall. Some people you just can't do some shit. It's a good point. All right. Yeah, you want to have a point there. He's not trying. All right. You're at least trying to get taller. I'm trying. yeah, I buy shoes and jump. You know, I do all those things. All right, this is, again, Alyssa cannot get a word in.

Starting point is 00:29:52 And let me tell you that. It's a mupper. If I can even get a fucking word in as well. It's a mupper. It's a point that's not getting it. It's a mupper. I feel her pain. I literally, I don't like her, but I feel her pain because I'm like, yeah, I know

Starting point is 00:30:07 What if you're gonna have a co-host out of what a fucking talk? But this really is a tennis tennis match of hate the show because you just You just go back and forth between him and her him and her and each clip you hate the other one more him and her and each clip you hate the other one more There's nothing like a little about the show. It's not charming or engaging in any single way So a couple of things that I thought were appropriate Yes, shut the fuck up. That should be on your soundboard. Yeah, shut the fuck up and that'd be better than you say. She doesn't have much longer to live.

Starting point is 00:30:48 Let her talk for her. She's like, I'll host on an iron lung. She's stage 4 or 4. She's hit her 20s. This is a funny little bit right here. Because the guys talking about the movie office space, which we've all seen multiple times. I'm not going out on the limb here.

Starting point is 00:31:09 We've all seen office space. Yeah. She claims she's never seen it until she realizes that she's wrong. You ever seen office space? Were the guys like my stupider? What? Like I figure, like I picture him writing this book.

Starting point is 00:31:21 I don't know what you're talking about. You've never seen office space? No. You've never seen office space the No, you've never seen office space the movie No, we're like he's like have you seen my staper no, it's moved down to you've never seen office. I literally have no idea what the fuck All right, well anyways, he's like the I have seen this movie. Well, he's like That was a good bit Let's do the you've never seen office space bat bit and it was killed. Oh, yeah, I have

Starting point is 00:31:49 And his example of like what the movie is so shitty to Obviously the office space stapler. She's like what? No, I mean people made that movie wouldn't know what you talk about That was not the main point of the movie Character movie eat Reese's pieces Come on Reese's pieces. Come on Open with phone home you jackass

Starting point is 00:32:18 And I love when you keep repeating the same thing over and over again. Well, you never seen office space Wait, you never seen office space. You've never seen the movie office space. Wait, are you telling me you have a seat office space? Like, that's what she's telling you. That's what she said eight times in a row. Right. There's no movie I could name somebody says I didn't see that. That would floor me. Are you kidding me? It's like in movies. Watch it when you get around to it. I don't care. That's funny. But go ahead. So, um, even when he's not trying to it, I don't care. That's funny. But go ahead. So even to interrupt even

Starting point is 00:32:47 when he's not trying to interrupt, he's interrupting. He's just bullying. He's bullying. He's very annoying. Let's see. I got his voice. He's voice shaving her and I'm all not stands for it. You're right. All right. So they try to do segments. I'll give them credit for that. They at least try to do segments. It's not structured while they're not good segments, but here's an example of one. We should probably get to the segment where we talk about stupid should Alyssa Shay likes. Huh? Stupid shit.

Starting point is 00:33:18 Alyssa Shay likes is a segment. And naturally start talking about vacuum cleaners. This is the first thing is the first stupid thing she likes the show. The things I like being on this podcast that is stupid. That's really stupid. You should stop that. Well, you know, they she did have a great joke here. No, with the fucking bissol crossway. Are you not listening?

Starting point is 00:33:41 Yeah, but what do they have on it? God, do men just have ears for decoration at this point? Listen don't want me in with Michael Wayne Jr. Okay, we might both be guys But I don't want to hear about how I've anything in common with that fuck had Not cool and what are we decorating on our ears? What is she talking about unlike him, we're listening to every word. He writes. Yeah, advising my dad used to do this thing where he would you would stick his arm out and you'd make a fist and then I'd be on the other side of the room and he'd go run as hard as you can into this. That's what I want to do with her. It would have fun and fun, but yeah, good bet. You ever tell that to a therapist that cost a hundred bucks an hour.

Starting point is 00:34:34 Yeah, but my quarters ran out. So I didn't I didn't have time to finish the actual story. I was spent out my drink there. Yeah, it's it was really funny because she was even I don't have the clip, but she was talking about one of the revelations she had from her therapy that she doesn't like affection and her therapist told her, is that because your mom and dad didn't hug you when you were younger and she went, oh, I feel like I could have came up with that.

Starting point is 00:34:58 Like isn't it always like your mom and dad did this or they did that? Isn't that always the thing? I mean, you know, that validating your park and ticket could come up with that answer the thing? I mean, the guy validating your park and ticket could come up with that answer for you. I mean, I've seen the sopranos. I know that's your mom's the problem.

Starting point is 00:35:11 I got it. Right, parents are the problem. That's it. That's where it all starts. That's where that's the origin story. Like get over it. I got one more clip on here. And this clip is how they end their shows

Starting point is 00:35:24 and is a terrible idea. It is the worst way you could possibly end a show. What do they do that they started again? That was the second worst way to possibly end the show. Good point, good point. I'll just let it play and just try to make sense of this So Everybody's gonna scream the one thing that you want to let out into the universe Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, alright, one, come on, we're so wide. There you go.

Starting point is 00:36:10 We're all gonna scream a different word on my count. That's the worst thing you could do out of show is I'll be screaming a different word. It's impossible to know what anything is happening. You don't know what anyone's saying. Even if they scream the same word, it's awful. Right. Yes. I wouldn't even recommend that, but at least you know what they were saying. It's a horrible idea from two horrible people that think they can broadcast and are just terribly confused and very wrong.

Starting point is 00:36:41 So somebody found Michael Wayne's, I don't know if it's a LinkedIn profile. So soft, fortnightly in our discord. So his work is funny or die writer slash independent contractor. So funny or die is that site where you can just submit bits, right? And then people vote on him. Is that still what they do or is that not their thing anymore? I mean, I don't know if they still do that. I know they definitely did that for a while.

Starting point is 00:37:06 Like, you know, independent contract. I had a friend who used to, you know, get monologue jokes purchased from Leno for 50 bucks. Is he an independent contractor? Yes. Yeah, I would think that would be, right? Yeah. I mean, yeah, we call it, you know, partially employing. You know what I mean? Like, you know, if you're not making a living, but you're not homeless yet either. You know what he should be doing is writing jokes at 930A.com. Like just fucking try and just spitball. Yeah, power through. Power through. See what happens.

Starting point is 00:37:36 I got to see what was accepted. That's funny. You're dying from this guy. And if anyone was in the office that day, when it was accepted, a janitor walk by and just hit enter I find it hard to believe that from the clips. I've heard Funny exists anywhere in this person and Shulee I did not go in here and pull clips to make it seem like he's bad at podcasting because some people say all you take things out of context

Starting point is 00:38:02 You're making us look bad. This guy makes himself look bad. I didn't have to do any kind of a magic. I wasn't crafting some crazy narrative that doesn't exist. This is real. This guy sucks. He's terrible at this. Oh, you did was push play, dude. So he did.

Starting point is 00:38:17 Honestly, it didn't occur to me at a certain point. That I'm pulling all these clips and listening to the show. You can just put the needle down on the record anywhere. And you and I just, like, what the fuck are they do it? Why is this a show? What are they trying to accomplish here? Yeah, I'm trying to figure out what sort of head trauma he suffered throughout the years. So can I build rage over here? You know, this is like, this is a good idea.

Starting point is 00:38:39 And this seems to be where he reminds me of the open micers that would go up. And you know, other people have been on and they get laughs and then this over micer comes out and you just hear you know appliance humming through their entire set not not a chuckle nothing and they come off stage and there's always another comic pat them on the back on great set man. Exactly. It's just like this delusional place they live in crazy. You know his friends have never listened to a show. I know he's telling me, oh, yeah, man,

Starting point is 00:39:06 your show's great. Love it. Love it. Of course, I have friends telling me that about like special. It's fine. I get it. That's the business. It's the business. I don't expect everybody to listen to everybody shit, but at least if they want to give it a try, maybe try and make it work a little bit better.

Starting point is 00:39:24 All right. Well, that brings us to the next segment of our show. And you'll know that because we have a stinger. Gringe of the week. Gringe of the week. Because this is a well-produced show. Gringe of the week is where listeners here, something on a podcast, they go, oh, that's cringe worthy.

Starting point is 00:39:38 They send it to me. And then I play it on the show and we comment on it. This comes from Heather W. It's the Hell Spark show. You familiar with Hell Sparks at all? I met him a couple of times years ago. It's serious. I know. I know he's, uh, I know he's a regular on John's show. Yeah. All right. So this is coming from the Hell Spark show. Listen closely here. Um, and they can't. why is, why is Stuttering John calling me right now?

Starting point is 00:40:07 I'm, I'm on the air. Hold on. Dude, I'm good. I'm streaming right now. What are you doing? Oh, shit. Are you, uh, I'll call you back. Can you speak a little more?

Starting point is 00:40:24 Um, I, uh, um, possibly. Let's talk. I'll call you back. Can you speak to more? I, um, possibly, let's talk. I'll call you back because I have regular family, FaceTime and rehearsals and I might have another rehearsal because we're getting close. We have shows next week. So everybody's saying put you on the stream and say hi. And this is as close as I can get is you on my iPad.

Starting point is 00:40:42 So say hi. I thought that you were, I thought you streamed at three o'clock. I am East Coast. No, I know. But that, so you're going up against me, man. Well, I started later yesterday because of that. We'll talk. I'm only on the East Coast temporarily.

Starting point is 00:41:01 This is for our regular plan. Leave me alone. I got rehearsals. I'm doing twelfth night for Christ's sake, man. I know y'all, I'm okay. I'm only kidding. All right, I know. I'll talk to you later.

Starting point is 00:41:12 So this is beautiful for two reasons. One of them is John is booking his guests the day before the show, which means one of the state senators that he was gonna have a riveted conversation with for an hour must have dropped out. Oh Shit, I gotta get else parks on the show calls him up. Hey, can you can you come out tomorrow? I was like, John. I can't just do your show every fucking day. Yeah, other things going out of my life But I've had a PR department that booked his people, but okay, well, I guess I was wrong. No, you didn't know that John does all his own booking

Starting point is 00:41:44 He doesn't even hold his nose and pretend it's a different voice, you know, do that thing. I represent the That's gonna be our next deep fake vet It's John pretending to be a booking agent Those are great by the way It's time for turning to be a booking agent. Those are great by the lake. Thank you. We are so excited. We are so excited.

Starting point is 00:42:07 We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited.

Starting point is 00:42:15 We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited.

Starting point is 00:42:23 We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. We are so excited. lost you coming along. Oh, I still haven't gotten served. I'm still waiting for it. So looking forward to the next breath. Yeah, by the way, Julie, thank you for getting Vince connected and on the show. That was a lot of fun talking events. That dude's hilarious, man. He just loves throwing people, including. It was a great episode. I'm really glad I could hook you guys up together because I know what a big yet that is in this world for you and the listeners and and he was thrilled to do it and he had a great time and he loved the show and yeah he's a funny funny dude. We're working on more Eric, the actor stuff. We got a new video we're putting out. I believe next week with uh, Jan Eric's right hand man. Yep. And left hand man. You ever met Eric?

Starting point is 00:43:09 Um, yeah. And it's a, it's a great man. I love him. He's a good dude. Yeah. I was, I was checking out the Eric the actor stuff that you guys are producing. You had the very first phone call ever into the Stern show, replaying those memories. And if anyone is a Stern fan, knows and loves Eric The actor, is one of the best characters of all time. All right, switching gears. Jessel Nick Rosenthal Vanity Project.

Starting point is 00:43:35 This is a podcast that was on Comedy Central for a while, and then they were off, because they had contact negotiations. Now they're on the Comedy button, they're all things funny, or one of those networks out of them. And so Now they're on the comedy button or all things funny or one of those networks out of them. And so now they're back doing weekly shows. And I love Anthony Jussle, Nick.

Starting point is 00:43:52 I think he's a hilarious guy. He talks about he's finally back doing comedy again. And they're talking about his standup show. He just did it supernova comedy in LA. And it's one of these shows where you're gonna have six seven comics come up everyone does 15 20 minutes and You do two shows in a night with that type of format. So this is him talking about doing the show So the first show was like that's a bunch of friends of people that I know friends of mine

Starting point is 00:44:20 I'm cool with it and the second show they're like blank is dropping in. I have no problem with this. Again, I'm two blocks from my home. I can hang out in the back. I name everyone would recognize, I'm not gonna give them, I'm not gonna give them the credit and not start a unnecessary drama. But I do not like this person. All right, so the reason why I'm bringing this up,

Starting point is 00:44:41 she'll be because you already stand up, you have gone through this and I wanted to get your take on it. Mm-hmm. Anthony is talking about Leslie Jones. Do you know Leslie? Uh, I mean, not personally, but yeah, I know, I'm sure. Okay, good. I was hoping you were going to be like,

Starting point is 00:44:57 oh, yeah, we toured together. She's the best. No, all right, good. That's, that's a good, that's a good sound. So this is more on Anthony's night. But this person comes in and they're like, listen, they're doing, they're doing five to 10. Everyone else is doing, I'm doing 20 minutes like,

Starting point is 00:45:13 they wanna do five to 10, I'm like, fine, that's cool. And they're like, they wanna go after the person you're following. They really wanna go after that person, they have to be somewhere else. And I say, fine, not thinking that they're lying. All right, so Andy Jussle neck is fine with that. More comedians, the better, this kind of stuff happens all the time.

Starting point is 00:45:32 When he has only Leslie Jones who's on SNL, has been in movies, very well, she was on Howard Stern, I think back when you were still on the show. So, you know, that's right, I forgot. You would have actually probably met Leslie or at least gotten close to it, now I think about it. So, I didn, that's right. I forgot. You would have actually probably met Leslie or at least gotten close to it. Now, I think about it. So, I didn't realize this.

Starting point is 00:45:49 I guess this is kind of the new news that's coming out is that anything just in the can Leslie Jones have a thing going on where they are not friendly with each other. Within five minutes, I understand what has happened to me. And not only that, and I'm like, you know what? I'm still cool. I'm still gonna sit here. What has happened to you? That they are not doing happened to me. And not only that, and I'm like, you know what, I'm still cool. I'm still gonna sit here.

Starting point is 00:46:06 What has happened to you? They are not doing 10 to 15. They said that, and they're gonna go as long as they possibly can. Strictly to fuck with me. Strictly to big time me. So, she's running the light here, Julie. Thoughts? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:46:21 I mean, I don't know that it's necessarily, she's doing that just just to piss him off But you're really saying fuck you to every comic on that bill when you run that light And you're coming in to do a guest spot. I mean I I was in Tampa three weeks ago and the club owner came to me the night of the show If you you know four hours for the show, he says, Ron Whites in town, he wants to do a guest spot. Are you cool with that? And my response was, what comics can the saying,

Starting point is 00:46:50 no, first of all, right? Like, I'm gonna be that ass, I'll be like, nah, I don't want him here, too. I love Ron Whites, sure, bring him on, that'd be great. Now, you do run that risk in letting that person on of them going longer than they're supposed to go. And that's just kind of the role, the dice, that you gotta work with,

Starting point is 00:47:12 and hope for the most part that the person's respectful of the other people that are on the show. It's not their show. So, you just gotta kinda hope for the best, but it happens a lot, happens a lot in the scene and it's very frustrating And I you know, it's a right it's almost like a right a passage for some people where they can't wait to bump You know people in clothes which sure I

Starting point is 00:47:37 Think it's it's it's tough man. I look a great comic out of New York Brendan Sagalo very funny kid known him for years. The first time he headlined was at Caroline's and Amy Schumer popped in to work on her monologue for SNL and basically bumped him on his first headlining gig. So it happens a lot and I get it, it pisses me off too. I don't know that it's directed. Maybe they do have a personal beef. I don't know that she directly did it to piss him off, but it really is a fuck you know everybody off the match show. I'm glad you said that because Anthony does explain this that yes, if you're

Starting point is 00:48:18 rehearsing because you got the tonight show or you're doing something else and you need to work out your material that happens a lot and it's very understandable but he explains how Wesley Jones was just dicking around and wasting time. So they're on stage for like five minutes and they're fucking around. They're not even like, it's not like they're coming up and hitting material. They don't have a late night set coming up. They're just like dicking around on stage. And the booker comes up to me and says, hey, they said they don't want to

Starting point is 00:48:45 introduce you. Like, there was no MC. There's no MC. It's just the person introduces the person next. And the exact phrase was, they don't think they can introduce you with enthusiasm, which means that not only am I getting bumped, but I don't get to go next. Someone else has to go after that.

Starting point is 00:49:03 So I'm going almost like an hour later. And I understand that this person does not like me, came there too big time me. Didn't come to me and say, hey, I have a problem introducing you. Let's talk about it. Just told the book, right before they went on stage. And I'm like, okay. Like I'm not going to leave.

Starting point is 00:49:20 I'm still just excited to be up on my first show. And then I see them start to do crowd work. All right, so this is, this is where you know that she's just trying to drag this out to fuck with Anthony Jessel, that she's doing crowd work on a drop-in. Well, yeah, listen, now that I heard that second part, I take everything I said back.

Starting point is 00:49:39 This is personal. She clearly does not like this fucking day. And she has letting him know that I'm not we don't feel like we can introduce you like pulling shit oh yeah wild that is wild it's fucked up so Anthony decides he's out of there and if you're up there and you're like I get to attend to 15 and you start doing crowd work you were just killing fucking time and then I've got to wait and have someone else go up like Like the guy who books the show,

Starting point is 00:50:05 who's the worst comic on the lineup, is gonna go up and do 15 and then introduce me? No. So I hand the guy back his money. I got paid for both shows. I hand him back the cash. And I say, I am leaving. Like there's no way I'm doing this.

Starting point is 00:50:19 And afterwards, people were met. I saw things online, people were furious, because I like, I didn't pay to see this person. I paid to see Jussle Nick so it was odd about this in my opinion being a big Anthony Jussle Nick fan is If I saw Wesley Jones instead of him I'd be pissed I don't think you want to see Leslie Jones stand up to be honest with you But I'd sit through it But then if she goes on waste everybody's time and I don't get to see Anthony Jusselnick, I'm fucking pissed about that. That's a dick move by Wesley.

Starting point is 00:50:47 A hundred percent it is, but I also think that it was personally, I think it's the wrong move for him to leave. Like I think you go up there and you fucking blow that place to the bits, man. You hit her, you hit the club, the booker, hit them all. You don't need that room. You're Anthony Jesselman. So just mushroom cloud that place and walk out and be God. And it'll go viral and people talk about it.

Starting point is 00:51:16 Because that's really our one shot is to kind of give it back on stage after you follow that comic. That's a good point. Yes, I do wish I could have that comic. That's a good point. Yes, I do wish I could get rid of that. I would have done that. Yeah, that would have been a far better set. It would have been just scorched earth, dude.

Starting point is 00:51:32 It would have been bad. I would have loved to have heard it. And he had every right to do it. He was 100% wrong than that whole thing. So he does declare that he's going to war, though. But this person I truly do, and I am like 100% he's going to war though, but this person I truly do and I am like 100% prepared to go to war one like I will abandon the comedy store and find another place to go if they cannot accommodate me on this And it's it's not like hey, it's an ego. I don't like them. They don't like me

Starting point is 00:51:57 It's like they run the fucking light just to be a dick. They fucking suck like this person fucking sucks be a dick, they fucking suck. Like this person fucking sucks. Well, and also, you know what, Jettelmick is an LA guy. He is, he is a comedy store guy. You got it. You got to stick with, with your people, man. Oh, so you got to have, you got to back your people up. So this is interesting. So he says, no one bumps him at the comedy store. I'm going to play you this clip. He goes through the whole thing about how this viewed with Leslie Jones started. It's kind of interesting. And the only reason, the only way I can think

Starting point is 00:52:31 that this person doesn't like me is one, like at the comedy store back in the day, no one bumped me. No one, like I remember Chris Rock coming up to run Oscar stuff and they were like, Justin makes next you can go before him and he was like, I'll go after Justin, like I want to watch his set. So when you're dealing with that kind of like baseline level,

Starting point is 00:52:46 I just said, this isn't no one gets to bump me. I don't, I've like, Nick curls a good friend of mine. And they used to throw him up in front of me, because he'd just be a drop in guest. And I was like, Nick, you can't do that. You can put your name on the line up. You can go after me, but you can't be doing this to me every week.

Starting point is 00:52:58 And he stopped. And one time this person comes to the the their in town. And and and a manager does not know what the score is and then like oh you can do all the rooms Just like go over go over the main room right now and jump up to put you up next I was next and when they get back there that like they said I'm next and like someone told you wrong because they do not bump me here You can go after me you can go to the other room and then come back But I guarantee you I'm next and they they're like, no, let's talk to someone.

Starting point is 00:53:26 So we had to walk through the comedy store to find a manager until, and we don't speak the entire time. I'm just walking, this is so awkward. I didn't mean for it to be. And then we get there and the manager's like, no, Anthony's next. And they're just like, and like walks away, never talks to me.

Starting point is 00:53:41 So that's kind of an interesting story. By the way, that beep actually was on the JRP podcast. That wasn't me doing that. So he must have said something. He didn't want to go out there because he never mentioned Leslie's name. So Leslie Jones said, I'm next. Let's go talk to management. If you don't agree with me, and then they're like, no, sorry, Anthony's actually next. And that's why she's this pissed off that she's still fucking with them. She doubled that weird man like she did double day right and it's weird to me like I'm always whether the club is a shithole or it's a historic comedy club you know I treat them both the same

Starting point is 00:54:19 I always go in there with respect and because they could book a lot of other people they chose to book me. I'm there. I'm there to do a job. I've been hired by this place, but there is nothing worse than a club that doesn't have your back that doesn't support the artist and the homegrown talent. You know, Anthony, like I said, that's his spot. And I get it. Nobody bumps him. I get it. There's people, I get it. There's people in New York at the seller that don't give bump. Like they've earned that right, they've earned that spot.

Starting point is 00:54:51 And it really, you know, it's an ego thing. With these comics popping in and doing these drop-ins, they're usually with people. And they're like, yeah, let's just go here. I'll jump on stage, you can watch me a little bit. You know, it's a muscle flex, right? For sure. And it's just go here. I'll jump on stage. You can watch me a little bit. It's a muscle flex, right? For sure. And it's a dick move.

Starting point is 00:55:08 Well, it's fine. If you run the light, if you run the light, that's where it becomes a problem. If you do five or 10 minutes, no one's upset about that. You've just enhanced the show. Everyone's happier that they were there. It's a big deal. But as Anthony points out,

Starting point is 00:55:21 I hate people who run the light. And if you're running the light just to be like, I'm going to show him, then you, enemy for life. Enemy for life, but again, I am ecstatic about this. Yeah. Yeah. Let's go.

Starting point is 00:55:36 I was always popped up for this. So does that mean he's gonna be, that mean he's gonna be a guest on Kevin Brennan's podcast now? Oh, yes, he should be. Should have those two cats up. Sir, Brennan's podcast now. Oh, yes, he should be. Should have those two cats up. Sir, Bernice Bridges. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:55:48 We've dealt with this in bands too. And that's really frustrating because that's more than just five or 10 minutes over a lot of the time. Is it true that bands make like the opening bands play at a lower volume than like the headlining bands? So when they come out, they're the loudest of the night. Yeah, I know legit show where the sound guy

Starting point is 00:56:09 and their touring, they will definitely do that. And the whites will be different and they'll do a lot of things to make the headliner pop. But when you're playing local shows like producer Chris and I have done many times, the fucking opening band what their move is, is they wait as long as possible to go on. They're like, oh, the room's not full yet. Like, yeah, I know, you're the opening band what their move is, is they wait as long as possible to go on. They're like, ah, the room's not full yet.

Starting point is 00:56:27 Like, yeah, I know, you're the opening band. That's how that works. They have to wait for the fucking room to get open. And then I'm going on stage at 2.30 in the morning, they've stopped serving for 45 fucking minutes at this point. I mean, this is a problem. All right, I got that out of my system. I feel better.

Starting point is 00:56:42 All right, so you talked about how we should have just gone on because people paid for the tickets. Anthony does address this. And I can't wait to talk to the management of the Communist Party and be like, you can put us on the same show. I'm going first every time. And if anyone ever bumps me, I'm just flat out leaving.

Starting point is 00:56:58 You can keep your money. And what made me mad about this show was that I saw people complaining. They did not give them refunds. I gave the money back. I could have kept the money, but you took my time, and this is fucked up. And they were all mad that this person ran the light.

Starting point is 00:57:11 But people came up and were like, Anthony wasn't here, we know he was here. And at first, they told them that I had like an emergency, that I had to go to another show, and then admitted what had actually happened, that someone bumped me and ran the lights too much. So he gave the money back and the fucking club kept the money. So that's that cool, I would say. No, that is, uh, that is as we say shady.

Starting point is 00:57:32 Yeah. So that's supernova comedy out there. I say one more clip from the show. It's not related to the Lesley Jones feud. I wanted to play that to get all the W ATPers out of the side of this. It's going to be a war. I think that's fun. But this is his take on Crystal Lea coming back to cavity, which I thought was fun.

Starting point is 00:57:51 Do you know Crystal Lea, though? Oh, do I know? I'm sorry. Yes, I met him a couple times out in LA, but not super well. Okay. He didn't touch me. He didn't copy me when I met him. I'm not a 16 year old girl, so I didn't have any problems with them, but that was a cheap

Starting point is 00:58:07 shot. Someone asked me, do you think it's okay to have Chris DeLia come back into a show? And I was like, not if I'm on it. I don't have a problem. I just don't want to be the first one back. I think it's weird that I wish them the best, I guess, but I do not look forward to doing shows with them. I'm certainly look forward to doing shows with him and I'm certainly not gonna be like, let's chop up the merch situation. Hey, hey, how do you meet girls?

Starting point is 00:58:32 Hey, what what snapchat filter did you use Chris? People want to know That was pretty funny just considering both LA guys and in the business together and he's fucking calling him out like that. Yeah, that's a gasoline thing man, that's why it surprises me that he didn't go up on the stage and just and just plant this flag on the ground and go to war right there. Yeah, it seemed like the whole extra hour he felt so disrespected, and he's like, this is too much of a waste of my time going home, but I agree with you, that would have been a much funnier ending

Starting point is 00:59:06 to that feud for sure. Yeah. Are you familiar with a show called Reply All on Gimlet that kind of blew out all of their staff because there were concerns about racism. Do you know about the story? I heard it on your show. They made some like public service announcement

Starting point is 00:59:27 about a former cast member, and then they dated another public service announcement about themselves. Yes. Yeah. So they were doing a story, and they were talking about how this other company had all this racial bias, and there were all these issues, but there was a four-part story. They were really investigating this thing and then a bunch of the minorities who work for Gimli or reply out like raising their hands like hey assholes you guys do that to us here too and they went oh shit really

Starting point is 00:59:56 It's so the whole thing fell apart. Well, they just finally came back with an episode And I just have a couple of things here. I know, thank goodness they're back. So a manual.c is the black gentleman who was the third host of the show. And he was added to the show. There were two guys and then he was added to the show. And he comes back on the show and explains, I just find this fucking crazy. He explains why he was offered the job to be the host of Reply-R.

Starting point is 01:00:34 Last year, back in June, Rinpoche asked me if I wanted to become a host of this show. A month of questions came to mind. One, which we openly talked about as a summer progress, was about the timing of this proposed promotion. Just weeks after Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd. I was worried about being seen as a way for this show to fake racial progress. Another question I asked BJ, the one I'm being on right now, was, are you quitting? I asked that question because, I don't know, black ascendancy is often a hard thought, right?

Starting point is 01:01:01 It's seldom just given. In my experience, white people often only see control of something to black people when it's clear what they're handing over is in crisis, right? Some sort of endpoint. So again, in this low culture that blew up their show and destroyed their own show, you cannot win. They gave this guy a job. He's on my personalities, doing stories, and he's like, yeah, but the only gave me that job because it thinks we're going to go south at some point.

Starting point is 01:01:29 And what people just want to fuck over black people and have to lose their jobs. It's like, what? What are we talking about? I can't wait for the next public service announcement where they apologize for having a white guy pretend to be black on the podcast. White British guy. I pretend to be black on the podcast. White British guy. So that would be amazing. So he decides, I'm going to replay the episode where they announced that I was getting the job of being a full-time host on the show and listen to how he sets this up.

Starting point is 01:02:00 The first step was announcement about my promotion. You may have heard it when it aired. At the time I didn't think that much of it. But our whole staff listened to it again a couple of weeks ago and I'm going to play it for you because if you listen closely, underneath all of the joviality and camaraderie, you can actually hear us trying to answer a lot of complicated questions about ourselves in real time. So basically what he's saying is, I'm going play this clip. There's nothing wrong with this clip,

Starting point is 01:02:26 but if you listen to the things you can't hear, it's also very racist and very problematic. Because then he comes back after playing the clip, it sounds fine, they're like, hey, welcome to our board, buddy, it's great to have you. And then after that, he goes back and he's like, see, see what I'm talking about here? This is a fucking proud of these people.

Starting point is 01:02:43 Like, Jesus Christ did, This is so fucking weird. I don't know who's listening to the show anymore. The other thing that's fun about it. Oh, it's a God, Joey. I was just gonna say, I don't know who's listening either, but it seems like the staff can't wait to destroy this thing. Right. That's amazing. So they cannot stop apologizing.

Starting point is 01:03:01 Well, I mean, like you said earlier, we've spent the past two and a half months reflecting on the making of the test kitchen. And more than anything what we want to do is apologize. We really hurt a lot of people. We hurt people from Bon Appetite. We hurt our colleagues. And we hurt our listeners. We are very, very sorry. Jesus. Did you think he started World War II or something? We invaded France.

Starting point is 01:03:33 We probably shouldn't have. There has to be an audience of people that just want to hear apologies. There should just be a podcast where they just say, I'm sorry, I'm over here. I'm over here. And I want to apologize for that. This guy's apologizing as if a cast member went on a shooting

Starting point is 01:03:50 spade. Right. It's like it's unbelievable. You think he was a member of ISIS who saw the light. It's like, oh my god, you know, we're in those camps. So we were saying, down with Western civilization and a lot of things that I wish I could think back. Poisoned my face red. I'm gonna fly a fucking blade for Christ's sex.

Starting point is 01:04:13 I mean, I really took it real seriously. We let down Bonapetite when we beheaded our last cast man. I love the idea of having just an apology, shall. But we caught with something bonkers to apologize for every fucking awake. Yeah. Like we just coming here, we're like, all right, so apparently you know that Q&N on thing you've heard about. We're the ones eating the babies and listen, I feel terrible, buddy.

Starting point is 01:04:41 You just got swept up with these things. You know, it's everyone else was doing it. Sorry. Tom Cruise was there. It just seemed like a good idea. We have a lot of questions. We need to ask ourselves right now as a show. Oh, man. All right. So not only are they apologizing, but they spent the last two and a half months worried about this. Yeah, that's the other thing. How long does this self inventory take?

Starting point is 01:05:11 Oh, no, half months. I'm going to tell you the answer to that. It's ridiculous. So those are mistakes that I feel like we've been marinating in and really looking at for like the last two months. They're marinating it at us. We're going to grill next week. I know.

Starting point is 01:05:26 You know what they're marinating it. So finally, the big announcement on this 20 minute long show is that they will be coming back. All that we can promise is that we're gonna try. We're gonna try and make this a better show. And if that interests you in any way, like what we could be making, stay with us. Our first episode back in our regular schedule will be June 10th.

Starting point is 01:05:53 See you then. June 10th. What the fuck, guys? Let's get back to work at some points. That is going overdose on marinating over there. Yeah, right. They were thinking about over two to that month and then two to that month from now, actually, we back on

Starting point is 01:06:08 the fucking air of the show. She's. Guys, we should we should have all racial problems worked out in four months. Yeah, that's great. That's perfect. They have that little clock thing

Starting point is 01:06:22 that used to see on stores and just as out to lunch with a little Time on it. Yeah racism solved in 10 minutes. We're back Part in our racist dust will be open again in four months Oh my god, if these are the guys that we need to solve racism I don't think this is gonna get solved guys. I don't think they're gonna figure it out any time soon I think you hit it on the head. It was racist to promote the guy to an odd air spot. That was racist. Like fuck. All right, Jesus I think you guys are on the something an apology show. It's really the next stage in podcast

Starting point is 01:06:58 It's not that crazy to be honest with you. I think we should at least do a pilot Yeah, I'm sorry. We're sorry we did a pilot to the show. Surely do you have a minute for one more segment I want to do with you? Sure, buddy. And by a minute, I mean multiple minutes. I am going to run to the bathroom real quick. And I'm going to play this for y'all.

Starting point is 01:07:25 Make Donows is a place to rock. It is a restaurant where they buy food to eat. It is a good place to listen to the music. People flock here to get down to the rock music. Rocky-roll McDonald's, Rocky-roll McDonald's, Rocky-roll McDonald's, Rocky-roll McDonald's. McDonald's for making fat. They serve big Macs. They serve quarter pounders. They will put pounds on you.

Starting point is 01:08:06 Rock and roll McDonalds, rock and roll McDonalds, Rock and roll McDonalds, rock and roll McDonalds. 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr 1 tbc sdmr . McDonald's hamburgers are the worst. They are worse than Burger King.

Starting point is 01:09:14 A Big Mac has 26 grams of fat. It caught a pound of has 28 grams of fat. Rockin' Roman dinos, Rockin' Roman dinos, Rock and roll McDonalds, Rock and roll McDonalds, Rock and roll McDonalds. Rock over London, Rock on Chicago, Wheaties, Purpose of Champions. Rock and roll McDonald's. I played all the hits on WLATP. Thanks for joining us. Come and have you here as Wesley Willis, these bad shit cranes. So, Julia, I'm not fully caught up on episode 14.

Starting point is 01:10:04 I heard you had the Cassio kid on telling his impressive story of going out to LA and getting on the tonight show with Jay Lano. Yeah. And then this, this Frankie and Dylan feud obviously is very compelling. People are, people are really excited about that. I'm excited about it too. I, you know, I'm a dreamer, man. And I believe I can get

Starting point is 01:10:26 these two kids back together again. They work so well together. They really should be. That's where the power lies when they work as a team separately. They're nothing. So what I haven't gotten to is the end of the show, did you address the New York Post article on your show? No, I did not. I did not but boy did I read it. I want to talk to you about it. I want to tell this is making all the news here. Maureen Callahan wrote in the New York Post earlier this week, or I guess it would be last week when the show comes out. Howard's end, Shock, Jack Stern has lost his sting and his mojo is the title of this article and everyone's talking about it. So there's a few things in here.

Starting point is 01:11:05 I'm not gonna read through, actually, Stuttering John read through the entire article and comment about it. And that's what I'm gonna do on the bonus show that we're doing with Andy and Kroge. I'm gonna play all those clips, it's amazing. His take out it is amazing. I'm excited to do that.

Starting point is 01:11:19 I can't wait, I wish I was there for that. It's fucking great. Well, I wouldn't have done it today, but I was trying to be, I was trying to be point. So, all right, so I'm just gonna read through what Morena, first of all, this columnist. Do you know who she is? No, but after reading it, I'm gonna go out on a limb here

Starting point is 01:11:38 and say she's not a big fan. She used to be, she used to be a big fan of the show. She knows it very well. Sure, no, I know. She definitely has her time put in with the show, but these days Not a big fan of the product. I guess this is a hit piece. This is this is brutal All right, so just reading from the article here things will never get back to normal Stirred declared just two weeks ago I do not believe the pandemic will ever be over.

Starting point is 01:12:07 For a one-s constant listener like me, this is heretical, especially here in New York City where every single neighborhood is struggling to survive. Also, Howard, the pandemic will end, even though you, a germaphobic, ruckulose, clearly wish it would not. But such sentiments have defined Stern's show and attitude the past year, pessimism, anger, and a worldview that shrinks ever inward, limited in size and scope to the basement, the literal and metaphorical dwelling place of this once great show. Now this is kind of how the article starts off.

Starting point is 01:12:39 I have to say that March of last year, when the show moved back to Stern's house and everyone was doing it remotely, is where I tapped out. And I was a listener for decades and listened to every single episode. And the sound quality was bad at first because they were doing the resume and they figured that out. But it was just the content of the show

Starting point is 01:13:00 got so fucking depressing. They couldn't find any fun or humor in anything that was going out. Yeah, I mean, I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel the same way at that point in time, you know, working up there at Sirius, I had gotten to a point where I built a rapport with Gary as far as getting in the studio. When I had something, there wasn't a you know a line of people

Starting point is 01:13:27 I had to go through if I had something I told Gary I said I got some he said go in and That was now gone once we started working from home where you know you're writing you know on I am saying hey I you know Jeff's on the phone. I got something about him. And then I would get back, well, do you have sample lines? You could send this, and I'm like, I've been goofing on this guy for 15 years. I don't know. You're auditioning now. You're auditioning to get out the show

Starting point is 01:13:57 with Jeff the Jeruk. Bits, come on. Yeah, and I feel like granted, everything changed. We're all working from home. It's going to sound different, but I feel like, you know, granted everything changed. We're all working from home. It's gonna sound different, but I feel like the biggest hit that was taken was just the organic nature of the show when something just kind of falls into place and everyone reacts to it. And, you know, jokes are coming in and we're calling in with different impressions of that person from the other, you know, from the back and all that stuff. That, to me,

Starting point is 01:14:30 is when it was the most fun around there, when that, when that organic energy was flowing. And that went away. And, and so I'm, I would agree with you that it changed for me too. Once the pandemic started and once we were broadcasting from home, it was a completely different gig. Did they change the way that they ran the show from the perspective of, I'm sure that they had it blocked out, like, okay, the first hour we're gonna do this, second hour this, third hour that,

Starting point is 01:14:58 did it get even more regimented? Because like you said, there are things that would happen spontaneously from time to time and you would jump into the studio because of a conversation that was going on and maybe it's some information on it and it sounds like that kind of just went away. Yeah, I mean, I would say, yeah, the regimented schedule definitely went up and off

Starting point is 01:15:16 when we started going from home, you know, it's, and this is just my thought on it, you know, maybe he just wanted to feel a little bit more secure with having enough content to do this from home at first. And maybe he got comfortable with that type of format. And so, you know, the name broke, don't fix it in his mind. It's not broke. So he's not looking to change anything up right now. Can't believe that it would be what he thinks all right So getting back to the I don't know that it was yeah, I know I understand Getting back to the article and she talks about how the reason why people listen to the Stern shows because he was so Unpredictable and you know, there was the big thing from the movie where you listen because you want to see what you're gonna say next

Starting point is 01:16:00 And now it's been the most predictable show It's on you could possibly hear so getting back to that article, consider a typical show consisting on a daily groundhog day-like basis of such content as imitations of his elderly parents and their hearing loss. What? What did you say? As enjoyable as talking to one's own heart of hearing relatives. While revisiting slights and traumas from his childhood, yet insisting that decades of 3-4 days a week therapy have made him less angry and more evolved. We usually segue into graphic sex-obsessed talks with Ronnie the Limel Driver, a 71-year-old

Starting point is 01:16:34 Stern show Mainstay, who has now become its lead character, eating up airtime and surpassing Stern himself. Hope Ronnie got a raise for all this heavy lifting. Unlistenable it he may be so I I haven't been listening up until recently Back when I was listening Ronnie was on a lot and they were teasing him because he was gonna retire and move to Vegas And they're like wow how could you retire? He's fucking 70 years old like what why would you retire? I did make any sense how it was always bashing him What are you gonna do without this show? He's like I'm gonna have a drink by by the pool. What do you be one of them? I get a do after the show

Starting point is 01:17:07 What are you talking about? But it was also like a lot of like weird sex stuff with an older man. I mean, it's his fiancee's hot But I don't want to talk. I don't want to hear think about this guy fucking Oh believe me when I was on the road with him for the block party and they would have a room a couple of boards down for mine It was at night. Yeah, it was too going at it. Listen to that. That was the end scream louder than that young woman was really disturbing. But you were peeking underneath the door. What are you talking about? Oh, I had my recorder out there. I'm trying to get audio for the show.

Starting point is 01:17:38 But listen, you know, for me, like since I left three, four months ago, I have not listened to one episode. But I know I talked to Ronnie from time to time, and I know they did the hypnotism segment with him not too long ago. I love Ronnie. He is a fan of the show. He loves the interaction with fans. That's one thing with the block party and we're on tours. Is that dude love hanging out with fans? And, you know, he's, I mean, he's definitely going to Vegas. I know that. He's got a place. He's selling his home.

Starting point is 01:18:21 What's going to happen with him? Once he gets there. That's up to serious. I mean, he's not driving Howard anymore. He's not doing security for him anymore. So he's literally just an honor. I know, I love Ronnie too. I'm sure he's a nice guy. I just, and, and, and, and, be a go-to guy every day on the show. Anyway, so she goes mad.

Starting point is 01:18:47 Maybe not, but he does, but he has something that that's maybe some would say is missing from the show. He's got the honesty. Right. And that honesty is, uh, is a way, maybe it's a way for the show to hold on to that honesty without it having to come from Howard anymore. That's a good point. He is the only person who probably voted for Trump on that show. So even though he didn't want to talk about it.

Starting point is 01:19:10 Well, that was a whole weird thing. I really hated that whole thing with that because it was weird. You know, they went overboard. It's like, yeah, it was like, you know, one person's calling them a Nazi and a homophobic. It's like, I know, Ronnie. Ronnie is the guy at 3 a.m. Youophobic. It's like, I know Ronnie, Ronnie is the guy. At 3 a.m., you need help, you call him, he will figure out a way to help you.

Starting point is 01:19:30 He's a good dude like that. But that's what happens when you let politics fucking ruin everything. And politics certainly did ruin the Stern show in a lot of ways. So going back through a typical show, Howard will come back and talk about his weekend, which is nothing.

Starting point is 01:19:45 It's like riding his bike at home, stationary bike. And then if the bachelor or bachelor is happening, you can count on a mind numbing 45 minutes a little que. Next, we'll probably take some calls from the mentally impaired characters known as the Wack Pack or be subjected to prank calls that stern and sister rear real,

Starting point is 01:20:03 but clearly are fake and scripted. I want to get your take on that. Now that's where I draw the line, Maureen. All right. Is that a name? Yeah. Maureen, but he's real serious right now, Maureen. Yeah. This is how dare you. Prank calls are taken extremely seriously over there. While print calls in general and

Starting point is 01:20:26 radio are 95 to 99% scripted and fake, we go out of our way there or sound Richard go out of their way there to still make real print calls. And I can tell you that these are real because some of the best prank calls you've never heard because we've never gotten consent for them to be played on the air. So they're talking about that. Yeah. Yeah. Everything is I swear to you. If it wasn't, I'd say it, but they're legit. They're doing these prank calls. They're sound richer or brilliant at what they do. And yeah, it's one of the few places, if not the only place where legit prank calls

Starting point is 01:21:10 are still happening. So that is not accurate. I thought that was odd. That she said clearly fake and scripted. I don't know that Richard Christie would be funny if he was scripted out of these things. I mean, that's why it's funny. It's because it's so unpredictable.

Starting point is 01:21:25 But anyway. And he wouldn't enjoy it. He wouldn't, you guys wouldn't enjoy what they do if they had to bullshit it. You know, it's like that's, that you've never seen Richard, maybe the birth of his children, but you've never seen that guy happier

Starting point is 01:21:39 than when he pulls off a great prank call. Right. That's still one of the best parts of the show that. And of course, the Alex Jones impersonator, which is fucking hilarious. And that's real too, Maureen. That's a real impersonator. It's lieu of picking on society's weakest

Starting point is 01:21:56 turn will turn his rage on most any staffer in his sights. It says something that even the most picked upon loyalists, say his producer of 37 years, doesn't even bother to fight back anymore talking about Gary Delbate. And yet at this point, it seems like it's that is like, oh, we used to get into these wars on air and now it's just like it's forced and it's stupid. The shit that Stern gives people shit for, like on Valentine's Day, Gary Delbate and his, took a drive to like, I forget what it was, like Stargaze or something, they went to a bridge or something. And he's like, what, you went for a fucking drive? Was your wife would even idiot?

Starting point is 01:22:32 Well, that's so stupid. It's like, this is just manufacture. This isn't even a real argument. Who's having this argument? It's stupid. Right. Because everybody there, no one's looking to piss him off. So there's really nothing happening that would directly affect him.

Starting point is 01:22:46 And no one's eating the last donut in the break room anymore, so you can't get into all that fun stuff. Yeah, yeah, Ronnie's not saving cupcakes for receptionists, you know, it's all that stuff is gone. Back to the article, this thin-tepid gruel was finished off with what it was like for Howard the Renegade to break into radio, deep dive instructions on how to queue up songs on vinyl, and General get off my lawn gripes over Life in America circa now. Just cancel sports, who cares, so fucking dumb, podcast, they're boars, they're fucking boars. And this is the thing I think that turns a lot of people off including myself, when whatever Howard's into is what's cool and everything else is stupid.

Starting point is 01:23:28 The guy talks about the bachelor for an hour straight and he's like, I can't believe you're watching baseball. What the fuck is your, you like the fucking Yankees? What's your problem? Like, sir, can you just agree that some people like sports and some people like to watch stupid scripted reality television? Like, I remember when he got into a little bit with, well, he talked a little bit about Ari Schufffier and his podcast and how, you know, he was kind of shitting on Ari and saying, like,

Starting point is 01:23:53 you know, this guy, kind of making him out to be a loser. But me, while at that time, you know, I knew Ari, he had, he had a very successful podcast for years now. He had three different shows sold to Comedy Central at that time. He wasn't a failure. He was succeeding in life by doing what he loved to do on his terms. And that pissed me off because I was like, well, if you don't know about this person, then you should really talk shit about them.

Starting point is 01:24:27 And it kind of the same way I felt about podcasting because I have so many friends in our comics that we're not selling tickets and then started doing consistent podcasts and now our selling tickets and are working and are touring the country and are very successful. So it's not, it's definitely viable, especially for comics in the stayin' age.

Starting point is 01:24:49 And listen, Julie, I'm not gonna sit here and say that all podcasts are great. I happen to think that they mostly suck dick, but he's so fucking out of it that he just has this blanket, like, oh, all podcasts are terrible. You're like, I'd much rather listen to Joe Rogan do an interview with someone than Howard Stern at this point. It's a crazy dissent.

Starting point is 01:25:07 Listen to 45 minutes of a horrible podcast to start this whole show off. Yes, but yes, do suck. This is too many. It's why it's why social media sucks. Everybody's got a voice. Everybody's got something to say. And guess what? Some people just shut the fuck up. We don't need to hear what you think. You're an idiot. Yeah. We don't need to hear you podcast where you sit in there, a mangling, jesslemich jokes and screaming over your co-host while you're drunk. Beat it. So this part of the article, this next part, is what really jumped out to me.

Starting point is 01:25:42 Be Riley Analyst's ex- Silver, wrote to clients, in part, is Howard Stern really worth 100 million plus a year. Our recent survey work suggested only a low single-digit percentage of respondents subscribe to Sirius XM solely because of Howard Stern. So this is the thing that I think is shocking to me because when I signed up for Sirius in 2006, late 2005, and everyone else was jumping on serious, it was only because Howard Stern was on there.

Starting point is 01:26:10 And I think that's been true. That's why the merger happened. I think that was true for a very long time that very high percentage of people who are paying for serious were doing so because that's the only place you could get Howard Stern. And now it's low single digit percentage of respondents who are doing that.

Starting point is 01:26:25 Yeah, I mean, I, listen, I don't know how they know that like because we couldn't even figure out ratings when I was working there. Right. You know, they mean like, Well, it's a poll. So they did a survey. Yeah, okay.

Starting point is 01:26:38 And they said, why do you sign up? What's your reason for signing up to Syrias? I'm sure a lot of people have Howard Stern on there but it's not the sole reason which I think it used to be. And anecdotally, I used to have conversations about the Howard Stern show with two dozen of my friends. And now I think there's like three people I know who still listen to the show.

Starting point is 01:26:54 You can see it happening where people just don't care anymore. Well, I mean, wait till Wi-Fi is available in all cars, right? Like, that I think is the end of satellite radio at that point, because, you know, you can listen to any podcast you want. You can program your own A.E. channel. You don't have to, you know, listen to their A.E. channel or whatever, maybe, you know, we're entering into a time where we are in control of our entertainment. It's never been the case.

Starting point is 01:27:24 We've always been held hostage by whatever this thing is on TV, on this night, that's when we got to watch it. So now we can pick and choose where we go, how much of it we watch, how much of it we listen to, and everything else is just looking more and more archaic. And I agree with you, I wouldn't be surprised at by the time this contract runs out that serious as a dodo bird. Well, I mean, I can tell you, man, maybe eight years ago, nine years ago,

Starting point is 01:27:54 we had this meeting where, you know, they were asking us for different ideas and stuff. And I had suggested, based on the fact that Opie and Anthony had a one hour podcast via Apple iTunes that was Best of basically. It just it was like three or four old classic bits from their show each episode and For someone like me who had never listened to their show that was really a cool way to get introduced to the show and to hear the old classic bits and to figure out who's who. So I'd raise my hand and suggested that in one of these meetings that maybe we put out an hour-long podcast of classic bits from the show to get new people to come over. And management at the time like scoffed at me and we're like podcasts aren't even a factor, you know. They don't even make up, you know, such and such percent of competition.

Starting point is 01:28:52 And I was like, okay, well, that's now. You can either get on the ground floor or something, or you can just laugh at it and then watch it crash over you. Well, you were smart to say that because think about what the model is now. You and I both have patrons and we do our shows that are free for anyone who wants to listen to them. And then we also have shows that are bonus shows behind the paywall and our free shows are pretty much advertisements for the bonus shows. If you like this and you want more of this, this is where you get it.

Starting point is 01:29:21 That's what you are trying to explain to this person. Like, if we put out some Howard Stern out there, I know he's always been opposed to YouTube and stuff, it's like, go ahead and just put some of this shit on YouTube. And then if people like Anthony Cumia does this on Compound, he'll take little segments from the show, put it up on YouTube, gets 40,000 views in a day or two,

Starting point is 01:29:37 and now you have all these people going, oh, where do I get more of this? Oh, you go to Compound Media, subscribe, and that's where you can see it. That's the model. That is the model now There's a reason why crack dealers give you the first one for free. I've never met that crack there by the way if anyone knows that First of a freellowed dollar

Starting point is 01:30:01 Every crack deal and give you the first one for free. They can't advertise in the penny saver whatever the hell you know the weekly So when when they give you that first one for free, it's so powerful, it's so amazing that by the fourth one, you'll be stealing rims off a car for it. So that's what they're banking on. That's the model. That's our slogan. Yeah. All right, getting back to the article, I do want to talk to you about this.

Starting point is 01:30:20 One of the most perplexing decisions to fans of late is the unexplained dropping of the show's most popular segment, historically airing last, the news with Robin Quivers. They've stopped doing the news segment. That was the most popular part of the show. Do you know anything about this, Julie? Why they did that or what's going on there?

Starting point is 01:30:38 There was never anything directly said about them not doing the news anymore on there. I maybe it was something for Robin just like, hey, you know, one less thing she has to do. The news at times was not Howard's favorite segment because he wanted to get the hell out of there. So maybe it was something of just like he wants to be done with the show. And if it's a big enough news story, they'll talk about it on the air, I guess. But there was never any formal or any eat it that came down from management saying we are no longer going forward with Rob

Starting point is 01:31:10 these news or anything like that. That's surprising because it was a segment on the show for, I mean, going back to the 80s. That's why Robin was on the show. She was the news person. On the show. Well, I mean, if you think about it, they're still doing the news. It's just the same two news stories every day. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. Just COVID and politics. Yeah. It's still happening. It's just not not a variety. And then she goes on to talk about the getting things done seminar that of course Centering John takes full credit for leaking and Everyone I think has seen this who wants to see it. It's very interesting.

Starting point is 01:31:47 It's this PowerPoint presentation that Howard puts on for an hour in front of his staff where he talks about how we have to start getting better guests and why isn't Neil Young doing my show and where's Brad Pitt and he's blaming everyone but himself for not getting these people. And he goes on to say, we look like we have homeless people working here.

Starting point is 01:32:08 Publicist managers, celebrities go, oh, this show is so gross. Look at them. They look like Bums. They don't know what they're doing. You've just blown it for me. Go the fuck home and go get dressed. And after all, Stern said, the Howard Stern shown is maybe the coolest

Starting point is 01:32:23 hippest place to work on the planet. Thoughts, you about blasting all of the employees there. Oh, I mean, I myself in management, it was a constant battle with dress code with me because, you know, I'm a dick joke guy. I'm not a corporate dude. I'm not wearing a suit. I came in with dick jokes. I'm leaving dick joke guy. I'm not a corporate dude. I'm not wearing a suit. I came in with dick jokes. I'm leaving with dick jokes, and I'm gonna wear whatever the hell I wanna wear

Starting point is 01:32:50 and management could not handle that. And I never understood it. They would say, where's your collared shirt? And I would say, don't you understand, you're just collaring up this personality. That's all you're doing. I go, I gotta be comfortable. I'm going to be able to move and be funny and they hated it. They hated it. It was, I mean, when I tell you

Starting point is 01:33:07 legendary battles screaming in the hallway because I give what I get like I don't give a shit about anybody's corporate title. I'm not from that world. You don't scare me. There's only one woman I fear

Starting point is 01:33:18 and that's the one I came out of. And so I was like, I'm not scared of the way I was doing. I was like, I'm not scared of the way I was doing it. I was title. I'm not from that world. You don't scare me. There's only one woman I fear and that's the one I came out of. And so they would, you know, where's your college shirt? I'd be like, oh, it's laundry day. They go, you know, you got to get your shit together. And I'd be like, why don't you get your shit together? And everybody would look at me like, who the hell is this guy? Why is he talking to them like that? And I just didn't care because I let my work speak for itself.

Starting point is 01:33:45 Maybe I'm not wearing a collar shirt, but when I go on that mic, I'm fucking funny and I'm killing it and everybody in that studio is laughing. And that's what should fucking matter. Yeah, it's called talent. When you have the talent, you kind of leave them alone and let them do their thing. You don't ban you them about what kind of fucking shirt they're wearing. Yeah, let me let me come in dressed as a cheeseburger. If he wants to goof on me, then you got another half hour segment. I got a cockroach costume if you're interested. Let me see how this tour ends up going. I'm like, I'm like, take it up from it.

Starting point is 01:34:14 Fair enough. So it's funny that you say that you don't have to say anything about this, but it seemed like this whole presentation came from Marcy Turk. Because it seemed like a very Marcy Turk-esque type of thing to say to people. And I don't know if Stern really felt all that like about how the staff looked like bombs and they needed to up their game and the dress code or whatever,

Starting point is 01:34:35 but it just, you look at the pictures of him from the 90s and shit, you know, like this doesn't seem like the same guy who'd be yelling at people because they're not wearing the right t-shirt. Yeah, I just felt like they were kind of trying to mold everybody into a similar type of thing, like almost like a steppered wives type of thing over there. And, you know, you know, comics, man, we're not, we're not followers, you know, and it always rubbed me the wrong way. You know, and it always rub me the wrong way. And again, with that meeting, you know,

Starting point is 01:35:07 because I know our good friend John had claimed for a while. I don't know if he still does that. I was the one who leaked that video, which I love that he did that because it just shows his detective skills in action because if you watch the video, you could see my bald head, three rows up in front of the camera,

Starting point is 01:35:27 watching this meeting, and in my mind thinking, what the fuck is going on here today? You know, that could have been a mannequin. Let me ask you this, what was the general consensus after that meeting? I'm sure you guys all got together and chatted about, like what were people saying? Oh man, that smoker circle down at the bottom of the building. Yeah, hot ticket right there, man.

Starting point is 01:35:51 I bet. We're all just taking drags, looking at each other, going, what the fuck, dude? What is going on? I got to write a letter to Brad Pitt. You must, well, you must have thought it was the beginning of the end over there because the way that he presented it was like, if we don't all make 10 sack accounts on Twitter and start tweeting at celebrities every day, the show's gonna go away.

Starting point is 01:36:11 It was weird because there was never a sense from when I got there up until that moment, there was never a sense of like desperation or worry, you know what I mean? And to be in a room where I felt like You know you're Almost like they're trying to scare us Yeah, this is fucking surreal. This is so strange. I remember coming home and talking my wife about just being like

Starting point is 01:36:40 You're not talking believe it Wait till Center Jaggeris hands out this. It's gonna, it's gonna really blow up in eight years. Watch out. I believe that's the meeting. This is an exclusive for you. I believe that's the meeting where, you remember the superfan roundtable show on 101

Starting point is 01:37:00 and it was hosted by Mutt, who used to have the Stern Fan Network, the message board. He came to the, because it was all hands, right, this meeting. And he came to the meeting and brought his, I think it was his girlfriend at the time, or might have been his wife. And everybody was just like, oh, bully, why would you bring your wife to this? Whether you think it. It's not a a party you idiot. It's not the Christmas party. No, it was not, but he showed up like it was. I'll never forget that. That was the other hot talk of the circle. Could you imagine he's driving to the meeting with his wife? He's like, you got to see this guy, how he's turned. He's so entertaining. He's so funny. I've been listening to this guy since 82. You're going to love this guy.

Starting point is 01:37:44 She gets like, what the fuck is going on here? Well, do you see how much he respects his staff? Oh boy, all right, Shuley, what have we done today? We talked about comedy pod pie We talked about Anthony Jussleneck and his feud with Leslie Jones. Hill Sparks got a phone call from Stuttering John and his feud with Leslie Jones. Hell Sparks got a phone call from Stuttering John, trying to get him booked for the next day. Reply all is coming back. Thank goodness, New York Post is not enjoying

Starting point is 01:40:58 So I heard you talking about this on your show that you're gonna get a phone line. Do you know how long, considering John's been promising that he's gonna get a device in order to take phone calls? It's been fucking years. He hasn't been able to figure it out. Dude, the only thing that held this up was me. Like these guys were ready to do it three weeks ago.

It's very off-brand. Get back to shitting on people's voices and their stupidity dammit. A look here man keeps it brief. Bad episode.

Starting point is 01:44:36 Get fucked. Bloody Noodle says, this music episode was much better than the one with the isotopes music. But fuck PJ Phillyum's echo we might, Master Beta 7-11 on times. What a whole lot of shit! The only episode I've ever not finished listening to. Week fanboy waste of time. Your wife's BF, wife's BF replies, you must not have listened to many episodes. Wait, Hispanic rights? I fucking lost it at the Carl's song. Get him a Grammy. Turbo 7049.

Starting point is 01:45:06 Best episode in a long time. House Husband Matt Farley is Patty Broken Cubs with more musical and monetizing, but less podcasting talent. Ralph Mollman Mellish, Phanascises, what level does the Patreon need to reach before the Reddit newsgirl starts putting out some J.O.I videos, preferably talking about her ultra-deluted urine squirts. Reality stimulator weighs in with, does every week need to have discussions about squirting, piss, and various secretions?

Starting point is 01:45:34 I miss Dorkels the clown and silly impressions. It's supposed to be who are these podcasts? Not who are these skanks pissing on. Korgan art quotes. Is it considered pee just because it came from a bladder? Uh, yes. Reminds me of my Intro to Philosophy course. Baby butters offers.

Starting point is 01:45:52 This Dr. Steve guy is right. He offered the best explanation of squirting I've ever heard. I do both. I squirt with penetration and clitorial stimulation. They both smell and look different. Dr. Steve 103 replies, thank you, your support is appreciated, Linky Face. And congratulations on your dual emissions status.

Starting point is 01:46:11 And Clover Logan 007 plays us out with, good to know, Vic is serving our country by pissing on Americans, but she just lays there like a dead fish during sex. Also, Carl, fuck your lame ass music. That dress seems a good egg, isn't it? He totally is. He was great. We will, we will, we will, we will.

Starting point is 01:46:38 With Vic. Wap, wap, wap. Now we're getting to the meat of the episode. I'm sorry, we bored you with all that other Horse shit that we do our intro. Yeah, do our intro to get to the real abort part of the episode and that is Reviewed with our friend Victoria. Vic. How you do it? Hello, Carl. How are you today? I'm fan fucking Tastic I couldn't be better. What's going on in the Navy this week?

Starting point is 01:47:03 I couldn't be better. What's going on in the Navy this week? Uh, a lot of more sexual assault training. Oh, are you assaulting of the, of a seam in there? Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of seam in the go around. I can't stop touching it. Fair enough. Vic, I feel like you learned something last week, even though you didn't want to. Yeah, I did.

Starting point is 01:47:25 I'll be at like the fucking guy from Reddit was right. Like it still comes from the bladder. I still consider it pee, but it's all the same shit. I'm slightly more educated. Yes. Thank goodness for Dr. C. We should have him on to educate us every single week about some type of bodily function, right? It would just make us better people. goodness for Dr. C, we should have him on to educate us every single week about some type of bodily function, right? It would just make us better people. Yeah. Right? It would make

Starting point is 01:47:51 us better people. That's right. See what you did there. Uh-huh. Vic, we have any new reviews that you want to read for us? Yeah. Uh, I got, I got a nice one for you. Uh, said, how I found myself here. My aunt used to get her room wrecked by a firefighter who would always listen to this podcast. I don't particularly care for Carl, or Carl for that matter, still to see. But it always brings a smile to my face,

Starting point is 01:48:17 thinking about that guy's monster hog. Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl K-A-R-L Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl Carl That is a five star. Very good. This next one says, this show makes my life hurt. This show makes my life hurt. Keep on trekking. Okay. Three. Those are nice one star for Maddie Rip. Oh, owch. Sorry that your life hurts, sir.

Starting point is 01:49:00 Okay. This next one is obnoxious unfunny host. The host is an unfunny obnoxious loser. That acts like everything he says is a punchline. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Chris is the producer. He's at the host. He's kind of talk is that.

Starting point is 01:49:17 I'll take that one for you. Apparently you speak as though he's busting at the seams with hilarity like a wanna be sharp joke from some random Midwest town. It's that fake affection and his unending faith in himself that makes me cringe. They position themselves as comedy experts, but on numerous occasions, completely don't understand sarcasm or irony. The stuttering John's stuff was kind of funny for an episode, but they're just so obsessed

Starting point is 01:49:44 with them that it becomes cringe Wow, that's kind of a deep dive. Yeah, it's pretty articulate. It's mostly true. Yeah, that's pretty good I'm gonna guess that's a one star review. Yeah, really well written. It's a capital one All right guys, we got to keep the five stars coming in here. What's going on? Fun and funny. I'm gonna surpass Michael Ravaport if we keep up this bucket story. You got another one that said,

Starting point is 01:50:10 hateful, slanderous crooks. This quote unquote podcast, if you can even call it that, features a host, Klansman from Ohio, probably named Carl, and a rotating cast of all-right comedian, Koho, so it's differ from episode to episode. The main premise of this show is to mock and harass disabled people. Here's no comedy.

Starting point is 01:50:34 It is now. That's a good idea. It's kind of like it's a good point. Give me your lunch, honey. This is what she's just get over here. Just beat him with his own wheelchair at this point, Carl. I want to sit there. Only hate can be used to describe some of this libelist claims that they

Starting point is 01:50:58 make about people on a regular basis. To just set her in John, he's disabled an LGBTQ plus. Having more than one cockroach in his apartment. First of all, is the ending segments to these multi-hour hate speed broadcasts in which the sexist pig Carl, the host, dabbles in forcing homeless women to dress up like Barnyard animals so that he can get off. This is like a Tom Myers joke economy. Yeah, I don't. I do like to see that Vic is some of the shrapnel though. That's always fun. Is that the whole thing? Yeah, that's the whole thing. Chapter two. As I get to five star review. That is in fact a five star review. Noice. Do I sound better than usual today? I have a new microphone.

Starting point is 01:51:45 You always sound like shit, Carl. All right. This one is Soundboards for all. Ironicole Carl makes fun of other soundboards abilities, yet constantly interrupts his own co-hosts and guests with his sub. Mmm.

Starting point is 01:51:58 Giraffe. You don't have to say to that, state, man. We know fact check it. All right, go ahead. Go on. I'm sorry. That's it. Oh, that was it. Oh, damn it.

Starting point is 01:52:11 I was trying to drop you. All right. Was that a five star? That is a beautiful five star. Beautiful. We actually got a lot of reviews this past week or two weeks because I did audible last week. So, I'm like, I'll

Starting point is 01:52:26 fucking continue. Do we have more or are we good for this week? Wait, I want to do one more. This is my favorite hard pass. Give this show about eight minutes of my time. They misnamed a host that clearly states their name at the top of the show and exhibit no real understanding of the show's format. Covering a show in about week's time that you have no actual basis of doesn't give a remote concept of the show's format. Covering a show in about week's time that you have no actual basis of, doesn't give a remote concept of what it's like throughout their hundreds of episodes,

Starting point is 01:52:50 especially when the host are annoying and ignorant as they come. No, thanks. I'll just listen to anyone else for two to three hours. Who do we, I miss pronounced? Oh, I don't know. I don't pronounce words well, so I believe. Yeah, but you do the names pretty well.

Starting point is 01:53:04 I try, I try to. I write down little notes for excited. Yeah, but you do the names pretty well. I try. I try to. I write down little notes for myself. Yeah, that sounds like someone who's butter. No, you can just call it. Oh, you think so? You think that was a butter person? Who didn't appreciate this?

Starting point is 01:53:16 Is there a rose to not a fucking deep dive into somebody's life? I'm not doing a docu-series, all right? You saw it in the book. Why are you so hurt about it? Yeah, right. Thank you. Fair enough. I guess that's a one-star review there.

Starting point is 01:53:30 That was in fact a one-star from Mastercrack Fox. Okay. Well, thanks for participating, Mastercrack Fox. What's blow through the voicemail, shall we, everybody? You guys ready for this? Go, go, go. Okay, here we go. alway everybody you guys ready for this go go go you fucking moron

Starting point is 01:53:48 and the book of the so we got to talk about twelve hundred dollars a month for uh... a mortgage and uh... petriot michael complaining about it you stupid fuck that as old as an attraler you take fucking the pie for the back for a fucking uh... his lot renters on the paper He paid $400 a month.

Starting point is 01:54:06 So of course $1200 is gonna be a lot. What a fucking idiot. That was the joke I was making. I know, I agree. It's not a lot. But to that fucking return it is. He thought that Manhattan rent would be $1200. That's what it was.

Starting point is 01:54:22 I don't have to defy myself. All right, this guy points out all of my flaws. That's always fun. Paulie, no. Well put. And it's a pretty good white smile. Could you imagine that scene? He really paints a picture of that. Let me paint you a story. Oh boy. All right, let's see if it's... Let's see if there's anyone nice calling it in the show. That'd be neat. I mean, not be weird.

Starting point is 01:54:59 Hey, I just got to say, one of the rare times I want to say, my mancarloctonplement, got to admit, zombie accomplishments by times. I want to say my man Kyle compliments Got it, man Zombie accomplishments by the fucking ice-throws. This is a pretty fucking badass, huh? Fuck yeah, I made it Figure fucking Kyle couldn't help to have his ego stroked I finished it by a way he might call on the air, but anyway good fucking doing. Thank you. Good work Call it back I heard most of that brand new single from

Starting point is 01:55:26 the IZotelb zombie accomplishments available on band camp. You can get from the IZotelb second. Yeah, where's band friends? This guy has helped us promote us. That would be nice to have. Let's keep going here. Yo, Carl, you know, I don't usually have too much good say about this show. It is objectively trash, but I'm not a busking accompaniment when it's earned. And I will say this. That was the fucking second best music show festival show ever on WATV3. Second best. Thank you. thank you for this music special bye Carl Carl Carl

Starting point is 01:56:10 I remember my first day Carl Carl Carl Carl What's not to love? Oh I got a funny story I forgot about this So I was DMing with our friend at Moturn Media. Now I'm drawing a blank, what's his name? Matt Farley. Matt Farley, thank you.

Starting point is 01:56:31 And he had a good sense of humor about the show. And he was excited that we reviewed his show, he tweeted about it. So I just wrote him, I said, I'm glad you have a good sense of humor about this. You know, I'm glad you're able to enjoy it. And he wrote me back a couple things. And then I said, you know, if you wanted to write a song about who are you know, I'm glad you're you're able to enjoy it. And he wrote me back a couple things. And then I said, you know, if you

Starting point is 01:56:46 wanted to write a song about who are these podcasts, I'd be happy to play and promote you. He goes, cool, I'm pretty strong with my 50 songs per week this year. But I'll eventually find time to make a song for you. Which I just thought was funny. I'm glad you could stoop low enough to read your text, Carl. You don't think that's good. Got that for the child. No, it's fucking awful. Here's another one. Stop texting me God damn it

Starting point is 01:57:15 Vic is my consultant and I I guess I should listen to her hey Carl it's uh long crack eye-talling right now and uh I still hate your show and I still listen every week. Thank you for putting on some pretty good ones, Lely. Your two-part extravaganza made me look up the Stuttering John's show on YouTube. And I made it through 12 minutes of that 421 you pulled that jealous clip out of. And within 12 minutes, a third of it was him trying to find that video. The next third of that was him singing to a song he was looking up. Edmund, the last third was just stupid bullshit at him being jealous and retarded some talk with that stargir whatever his name was. But the real reason I'm calling right now is, fuck, I think I forgot.

Starting point is 01:58:07 I'm really not to forget. Oh, here it is, I got it. You can cut this out and just send this to the suffering John if you want. Hi, I'm Wong Crack guy, I'm 22 years old, I'm a fat depressed truck driver, and Stuttering John, I think you're a fucking loser and that's coming from me and I've already ruined my life that 22 years old but besides the fact hey, I'm 22 and I am now taking Appetation because I'm a professional baby daddy, so you can inquire within if you want to Call me back. Yeah, do

Starting point is 01:58:46 something like that, I guess. Peace the fuck out. Why did you play that? He's horrible. He wanted to cry the whole time. Well, the reason why I played that producer Chris is that potential advertisers know who our audience is. Okay, 22 year old tracker crackheads. Anyway, I also wanted to let Vic know that she has a suitor. She's like, I just love overweight men for two sets. That's my fucking favorite.

Starting point is 01:59:16 Oh, you're no, your phone's about to blow back in the game. Oh boy. Okay. Oh, let's see. Someone's talking about, so we had PJ at last week. It was his debut on the show. Hey, Carl, if you play my clip 11, and I think PJ might have a bit of a crushware.

Starting point is 01:59:34 All right, sir. Dog shit, dog shit, dog shit, dog shit, dog shit, dog shit, total, dog shit, retard. Very well done, sir. That was noticeable. That was a good voice okay this is one is for Vic it's a guy from Buffalo too local boy I'm going to want to listen to the fucking Dr. Cusadman with biggest pisses for bitches fucking worthless and I take this really fucking hit me. She tried to play the fucking ignorant fucking dumb Child whatever the fuck just ignorant fucking fun or why?

Starting point is 02:00:14 Holy shit is that fucking broad worthless get her the fuck off the fucking show already Jesus We're start taking your clothes off for fucking four later. That's how you pick up chicks. Vic, I'm at. Uh, I love it more than the fat tracker. Okay. When Buffalo meets Kyle coming up next. All right.

Starting point is 02:00:39 Here's another one for Vic. That's pretty funny. The intellectual heavyweight on WATP are astounding. We've got Dr. Steve bringing in the science and the research stating multiple studies done on a subject. And in the other corner, we have Vic. Oh, it's Vic. It's Vic, I'm an attention-seeking retard. It's Vic.

Starting point is 02:01:00 It's Vic, is that you? Yeah, it was. Actually, I've been taking testosterone lately Transitioning that it's yeah, I'm trying to go diggy, you know, he's I'd look up to him some or her so much it's B now Gotta keep I wait what is that his pronouns? Or do her name is Beatrice now it's B. Oh, so she picked like the ugliest fucking name of the universe Jesus, she's back. It's got a little edgy in here. Here's another one for you, Beck. Oh Thank you, Dr. Steve for validating my experience

Starting point is 02:01:39 Squirt is squirt now tell Victor shut the fuck up and take her ignorant loose blotter back the target to get some more depends. And Vic, you just pee like a regular basic bitch. You wish you could Squirt Vic, you will. Sht. This is really stern up a lot of controversy on the show. This is the most controversial thing I did not see this coming, no?

Starting point is 02:02:04 For a voice like that, I think he made a man scored up right out of his asshole. I don't know, you should be judging people's voices. You know what that's fair? We were pretty convinced you were a pre-peer-best boy when you first had a colleague into the show. Well, way back then she was. It's possible. Good point. This is our new theme song. I'm here to announce that we got a voicemail that it's just killer. W-A-T-P, very good podcasting out this interview at W-A-T-P, snaggle to, and again, overreact, W-A-T-P, masterface to a pet and zoo at W-A-T-P. That's pretty good. That was take four. Can we put some music to that?

Starting point is 02:02:59 Do you think? Sure. It's not bad. Oh boy. All right, I'll legit, Dr. Callison. sure the boy are legit doctor calls and yet this is uh... doctor read not calling for uh... the review girls of the podcast who are the park at uh... just called notchino you missed your uh... stimulation exam uh... we were going to test the massive amounts of uh... fluid that release out of your vaginal orifice. And I was just going to give you a call. You can see it goes to call back. It's a really important study. And we've noticed in our books here that you haven't reported.

Starting point is 02:03:40 And that's actually a crime. So give us a call back. We'll see you soon. Bye. Sounds like a stuttering John lawsuit. Vickle fall for that. I don't say anything. I'll give you his number, Vick. Okay, very good. I don't know if doctors make their own phone calls, so that's a little upset. You know, Vick's out. No, no, they don't got time for that. Alright, more about the Doctor Steve stuff here. Crow, that doctor you had on the last episode, can you have him back on and explain the signs of the cleaf? Because the squirt, it kind of makes sense, it kind of makes sense, but the cleaf, that's

Starting point is 02:04:23 where the real flavor is that. Calling back. That's what the fuck? That's what the fuck? That's guys at the cleaf porn. What is there to question about it, though? You know what I mean? It's just, like it's just, it's air.

Starting point is 02:04:37 Tracked. I don't get it. South Park covered it succinctly. That's where you get all your medical advice. All my news. All my news. All my news. My news and olds. My room records.

Starting point is 02:04:49 Called me out. Hey Carl. My room records. You know I only call you because I love you. But I have to do front you and your musical sensibilities. You are making fun of Forge Barb and his lyric writing ability. You're going to talk about lyrics in music. what's your band do again? Call me back love you all right my room records The ice stops instrumental, but I've written plenty of songs with lyrics that I've sung

Starting point is 02:05:38 What's about selling drugs it's junior high schoolers? Tell good I'm starting Do I need to play the songs again? I would play all the songs from the music special again right now Now for better order. Can you imagine plus we're gonna throw it a few new ones Actually great bag of tech Chris. I've actually been working on a couple of Alright hey, what's up, co? It's a Casey's feet here in this is how it talk. We were thinking it would be really funny if Casey put butter and syrup all over us and then posted pictures on the internet, because it would be like chicken and waffles.

Starting point is 02:06:17 Man, think about how funny it would be. We were posted on the internet. It's butter and syrup all over us. All right, give me a call back. Peace. OK. I don't know if that was like his heavy breathing or just wind, but either way, I'm here for it.

Starting point is 02:06:32 He was into it. He was into what he was saying. I guess that guy called back. Hey, man, I thought I'd call back. And you know that I was walking down the street while making that call and I 100% had neighbors on the porch over here and make that phone call. So I hope it's funny. It is now.

Starting point is 02:06:56 Right. Doose, doose, doose, doose, doose. You've got karma. Dude, fuck it. You turn me on into a agenda, but you got to talk to you guys about how half their show, a three plus hour show is fucking dedicated to talking about their goddamn donators, their donors, it's fucked up. It's like, Love that show yet. I do not have to skip through any show as much as I do that one. So I'll fuck I don't know calling it out, but

Starting point is 02:07:34 I hope you're busy fucking yourself, Carl and Yeah, so I got so I will tell you that the last time I donated no agenda I made my note very short because I agree. The second one's gotten way too long. It's because they're so successful. They're getting too people writing in and the segment's going on very long. But when I was trying to tell people on to it, it wasn't like that. Yeah, I'm sure you have one speed dot card. You can let them know. Yeah, I'll definitely let them know. I had Jesse DeVore I got this show.

Starting point is 02:08:06 A very cool car. Well, you know, fucking name job that are unimportant. Very cool. Drop. All right, move it out. Carl, you know, I know some people that have adult braces. And I just want to blow this out there. You know, there's nothing wrong with it, you know Anyway, W-A-T-P everybody. It's something I should fix my teeth. I don't know if you've heard about this. Somebody voice egg

Starting point is 02:08:37 All right last one here Hey Carl, I don't know how you're gonna swing this but Hey Carl, I don't know how you're gonna swing this, but it'd be really funny if you somehow managed to pretend to be someone else and somehow get invited on a Stuttering John's fear on the balcony and then record that. I don't know. It's probably gay, never mind. uh, I don't know. It's probably gay. Never mind. All right, so here's an idea. Why don't we get Southern John deep fake to be on Southern John's beer on the balcony? What do you, what say you produce a crest? Can we make that?

Starting point is 02:09:15 Man, can we book that? It's like looking in a mirror. It's like looking in a dirty mirror. That won't lend me money. Oh, I got a fucking update. Shit, I forgot to talk about this too. I should have time to know this, Julie. I got an update on Dr. Steve's offer. Remember last week he offered $1,000 for John to do. I should talk about something bonus show.
