Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep606 - The Dylan Hour

Episode Date: March 23, 2025

This week we’re checking out a brand new podcast that was three years in the making. Dylan Mulvaney is a trans woman who is so hated she destroyed one of the best known brands in the US. Most people... would not be able to pull that off and if they did, they certainly wouldn’t get a podcast out of it.  Anthony Cumia and Adam Busch both join us to discuss Dylan’s iconic conversations behind closed doors. Scorch finally reveals his motorhome and we analyze the terrible logo they developed for Dive Bar Locator. Tom Myers’ monologue does not disappoint. Opie is completely out of control. He’s mad at Erik Nagel for a thing Erock never said, he’s taking shots at Anthony Cumia that are vague and unfounded, and he’s implying that Sam Roberts used to cheat on his wife. What an a-hole! To wrap up we play another round of 2 Minutes with Tom Myers, listen to the Internet News, and check out some recent voicemails.  Anthony Cumia’s show - https://censored.tv/  Support us, get bonus episodes, and watch live every Saturday and Wednesday: http://bit.ly/watp-patreon https://watp.supercast.tech/ Come to Hackamania May 9-11 in Las Vegas with promo code WATP – https://hackamania.com/ Season 2 of the Tapes!

We encourage our listeners, give us five stars on Apple podcasts or wherever you review podcasts and then show them in the comment section today. We'll be reviewing a show called The Dillon Hour.
Starting point is 00:04:20 This was a suggestion from Casey Day. We've all checked it out separately. We've not discussed it with each other beforehand. Let's get into it. The show hosted by Dylan Mulvaney. And of course, this just launched episode one just happened this past Wednesday. Dylan Mulvaney had our guest on Joe Locke, who I guess is a gay British theatrical actor. What a surprise. Yes, in that order. In that order.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Yes. Gay first and then actor then gay again. And then isn't gay actor redundant? Especially in musicals. I want to see what it says on his passport. I don't think it's that. Alright. Let's check out the very beginning. She has her own theme song that she's singing. I'm going to say she, she presents as a woman. If anyone says he, that's also acceptable. It them, whatever. I'll go along with anything. I knew right from the beginning. I'm like, what do you call a Dylan Mulvaney? What do you call a Dylan Mulvaney, Chris? I had to look it up. It's all she. Yeah. I mean, that's what I think she is. Prior to that, it was what's this? Yeah. Okay. It's all she Yeah, I mean, that's what I think she prior to that. It was what's this?
Starting point is 00:05:28 Right. Well, let's talk about the target audience scary for the show soccer moms all your days and thems all your bottom boys my bisexual fems come on and all disassociate with me it's free okay so she's playing all of these different characters who all look exactly the same yeah yeah different wigs just yeah just different wigs the facial expression everything else is the same so apparently her target is soccer moms, non-binaries, these and thems, bottom boys, which I believe are twinks, which is what Dylan used to be,
Starting point is 00:06:10 and bisexual fems, which probably also describes Dylan. This is an interesting combination of people that would enjoy this program. Yeah. And they're all mugging like strangers with candy. Yes. Amy Sedaris. Right. I would just say it starts with an F is the audience. French people? Yeah, that's it.
Starting point is 00:06:37 All right. This is a podcast that's been in the works for a long time. And this podcast has been in the works for almost three years. And some of you might know me from like my days of girlhood series online where I like documented my transition. But even at the beginning of my time on social media, I was like, often having my content used against me by like, really horrendous straight white men podcasters. I didn't get the memo on that.
Starting point is 00:07:03 What the fuck? You should have given you shit right there. Well, I wasn't I don't think we were making fun of Dylan Well, I was waiting for her to have a podcast Apparently I'm really late to this. I Know pretty good disappoint. I thought you were her on the straight Yeah, damn it losing my street cred over here. Well, we got a lot of catching up to do then. I wonder why it was not, why it took three years. Why do you think it was on pause?
Starting point is 00:07:31 Did anything happen over those last three years? On top of any controversy, I think it just shows you how difficult they are to work with. Because this podcast is just her free associating, just rambling for about an hour straight with no real setup, breaks or topics, and it took three years to get her in front of a mic to just talk into it
Starting point is 00:07:51 with some cameras. That's how difficult she is to navigate. How hard is it to get a couple of couches and a curtain? That seems to be the set of the podcast these days. A curtain, you say? You know, get something, John, to send you a ring light, of the podcast these days. A curtain, you say? You know, get something, John, to send you a ring light, because he thinks you're a woman. You're good to go. You got everything you need to do it.
Starting point is 00:08:14 But let's find out why did Dylan start this podcast. And I remember thinking, like, we need a way to combat this hatred. And I was like, well, I'm just going to have to start a podcast of my own. And thus, the Dylan hour is now happening. It's here. According to this, there's a lot of reasons that Dylan explains she has a podcast. But the first one was to slap back at the haters. I didn't see a lot of slap backing happening. This show,
Starting point is 00:08:40 you're giving them more fuel is just about all you're doing there. There's no hater. That's gonna go Yeah, but you know when when she started the podcast man I just I totally all my hate just drained out of my talent man. She can really host a show. She's so right Everything that Dylan does is fake Dylan is playing a character, pretending to be a woman. It's just a flamboyant gay guy. The way that she's pretending and portraying women,
Starting point is 00:09:11 I can see why women hate her. It's a horrible stereotype that's just like, I wanna sleep all day and go to brunch with my girlfriends and drink at 11 a.m. Like that's kind of her persona. It's like, you know you're not representing women very well with that shit, right? It's weird. I've never seen a trans person bring attention to them being trans or be self-important
Starting point is 00:09:33 The first time I have a hard time with this because it's like we Don't need to have an opinion about transgender people to dislike this person Like you can dislike this person for so many other reasons that are so obvious. My 14-year-old niece was asking me what we were covering. I mentioned Dylan Mulvaney. There's no one more inclusive than her. Like her, what she's grown up in and what's normal for her
Starting point is 00:09:57 is just shocking to the rest of us. And she hates this woman with such a passion for only personal reasons. She's like, her idea of what a woman is, is so redacted and so regressive and such a like over the top cartoon stereotype that I can't tell what progress, maybe that's progress. Cause I just hate her for her.
Starting point is 00:10:18 You know what I mean? Well, it's funny, I wrote down in my notes, like all it takes is a very surface level analysis to realize that Dylan Mulvaney is faking, pretending to be something that she's not, and that's why people don't like her. Your 14 year old niece could see through this and recognize it's like this is not helping anyone's cause, having this Dylan Mulvaney prance around. It's an over the top version of a fake girl. Yes. around. It's an it's an over the top version of a fake girl. Yes. Uh very Broadway musical like a follow spot should just
Starting point is 00:10:50 uh be on this idiot uh 24 hours a day. There's no reality there. It's it's fake. It's it's bad theater version of a woman. And think about it. It's it's reminds me of Meghan Markle. Meghan Markle, everything she does of Meghan Markle Meghan Markle everything she does fails People hate Meghan Markle and she kept getting opportunities this woman took down Bud Light I mean Bud Light was like it's 50% of all beer sales in the US was Bud Light It was number one by a mile and she knocked them out How unlikable do you have to be? Yeah?
Starting point is 00:11:24 It's pretty impressive actually she paved the way for Modelo, so that's important. Well. No that is a good thing I agree those are delicious, but not the point the point is is that Like once someone is that hated you could ruin a brand a well-known brand. Yeah, why are you getting second chances? Can you just go away now? You're starting a pot who Who is paying for this? Actually, she is on a network. Well, that's a great question because she made it clear right in the beginning and I Thought about it. She's right. I pretty much only listen to podcasts hosted by Men my age talking about the things that I know I don't listen to this very often nor would I it's not for me I don't like it so much I know it's
Starting point is 00:12:05 definitely for someone else right mm-hmm I don't know who that is but apparently if you can just talk not ask questions just validate a certain kind of vapid existence people take comfort in that and they enjoy it and that's it do they I'm guessing who else is watching this I don't know I could see a bunch of theater kids being in the laws reading through the comments and all of the comments were fans Of Joe walk. Yes, because he is actually a very talented person He's like a musician with a talent he can sing so already He's like a real person and Dylan is kind of pretending which is why Joe has nothing to say for an hour and a half
Starting point is 00:12:44 Yeah, Oh Joe's uncomfortable throughout this trying to play along. And like I said, Joe's a gay guy too. So it's just two gay guys, gay dudes, chewing the shit, as John would say. And so there's other reasons why Dylan decided to start this podcast. And another reason that I wanted to do this is because I've had so many iconic conversations Behind closed doors with some of these folks and I want to share that with you But that also means that sometimes I will be interjecting my own stories or answering my own questions So if you are exclusively here for the guests or a Dylan Mulvaney hater in general, you might not love this format Wow, she's really concerned about the haters. That's a couple of mentions of that, right?
Starting point is 00:13:25 Before she would introduce us to her dad. That's amazing. Enough about me. Enough about me. Why don't you all talk about me for a while? Right. So she said, and she uses this word a few times throughout this podcast, iconic.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I've had so many iconic conversations behind closed doors. Does she know what iconic means? Apparently not. You can't have an iconic conversation with private conversation with someone doesn't even make sense. But also, and then to say like, and by the way, I suck at this. I'm going to be rambling and answering my own questions and very rude to the guest. And so if you don't like me, you might not enjoy this. Like, oh no, no,
Starting point is 00:14:00 no, that's actually what I'm here for. Yeah. That's why we tuned in. This is perfect for us. Thank you very much All right. She is another girl stereotype She has to pretend that she loves birthdays because girls love birthdays How do you feel about birthdays, you know, I'm not a birthday person were you mad at me for missing your birthday No, because I don't carry my birthday Oh my god, I can't it's the only thing I care about my life is birthdays. Hmm
Starting point is 00:14:30 Hey, man, I miss your birthday. I don't care about birthdays. Yeah, but you're so sore with me though, right? What'd I just say? bloody poof to Shit about his birthday most people don't I'm just gonna throw that out there. Oh my god I care about his birthdays. Neat. Is that what your personality is today? Cool. And it wasn't even a question. She asked something that regardless of the answer,
Starting point is 00:14:53 she was gonna say the exact same thing. So it's just end birthdays and back to me, and back to me, and back to me. She asked him a question and then doesn't ask him anything else for 22 minutes. It's a 40 minute podcast. I love it. I'm trying to remember what the question was.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Can I go with you to that Greek island? I think she invited herself on a vacation with him at some point. It was some vague version of what do you think of me? Right. All right, well, they do have Twink Juice ready to go. You know what we're calling this one for you honey? What?
Starting point is 00:15:26 Twink Juice. Twink Juice. Cheers. It's an espresso martini. How fitting. So it's true. It is true about these espresso martinis. Now we know.
Starting point is 00:15:38 It's just such like blatant over sexualization of everything. That's another thing. There are plenty of women doing podcasts, whether they're good or not, that can be decided by you. But they're not constant just sexualization about themselves and their guests. Well, Megyn Kelly definitely is always. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You get like, but trans women, it's a constant sex thing. They don't seem to be capable of speaking about anything else that matters in the world.
Starting point is 00:16:17 Yeah, you can tell that Dylan's much more interested in her posture and how she's spread out her dress and how she's sitting on the couch then she is about any conversation that they're having. That's what took three years. Probably picking out an outfit. Now, Adam, you said, or maybe it was you Anthony, you said that you know it's just kind of this random rambling conversation they have but oh no no there are segments to the show and we're going to introduce the first segment here. Talk to me about bitter and sweet of your
Starting point is 00:16:50 week. Oh gosh. You told me about this. I didn't even know last night my high and low. You know, this is good. No, that's what they do on podcasts, especially on the first episode. They say what the segments are. Oh yeah. That was a segment of the Dylan hour with Joe Locke is bitter and sweet of our week It's our high and low our rose and thorn if you will I love to find the positive But I'm not scared to go to the negative give it to us Joe Your dressing coming up after bittersweet after this. Doosher dressing coming up after a bitter and sweet. It's a question that has some weird news. That would have been fun. Weird news. So I like that they've been hanging out all week because they have these
Starting point is 00:17:31 conversations about like driving around together and stuff. And so she told him like, hey, just so you know, I'm going to ask you about like what a good thing that happened this week and a bad thing. He couldn't be bothered to come with any prep whatsoever. She's like bitter and sweet. And he's like, oh, that's right. You did say something about that. Well Well after driving around with her for a week He knows how this is gonna go. Yeah, the segment where she interrupts him Probably yes. Well, I could be the bitter right there Fucking weak with you
Starting point is 00:17:58 And on top of that, they're not driving around. He's driving her right He's from London and he's driving her around to her errands while he's on vacation. Yeah, he had to drop her off for some interview she was doing. Yeah, it really is a bizarre relationship these two have. How do they get along? They're the exact opposite. He has no thoughts, no opinions, no energy, and is very talented and is reserved and grounded. She's the exact opposite in every way, but they clearly Enjoy each other. Have you seen Joe before on shows or have you seen him perform? I went and watched some of him on Sweeney Todd the Broadway musical. Yes. Okay, and he's a musician. The guy is a real musician if you hang with him
Starting point is 00:18:41 There'd be something to connect on because he has a town about Joe So I'm wondering if like she just sucked the life out of him because you're right. He doesn't he looks miserable It's like how much time do we have to waste out here? It's like a married couple. I guess he's reserved She doesn't give a fuck in they she gets him out of his shell and he likes clean up I don't know. It's like Alec Baldwin and Hilaria This week Anthony, I'm sure you did. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Where she just kind of gives him the what have you.
Starting point is 00:19:10 What did she say? On the red carpet. Me talk, you not talk. Me talk, you not talk. There's a wall here. We're going to pretend this isn't here. And he's trying to compliment her. And it shows you that that kind of feeling
Starting point is 00:19:20 you get from Hilaria is the same feeling you get from Dylan Mulvaney. It transcends anything. It's just a Karen quality, a real vapid, shallow, egotistical attention getting just like piece of glitter that talks. Yeah, it's funny how we brought up Megan Markle, Hilaria Baldwin. These are, there's a reason why we're seeing these parallels. These are it's a reason why we're seeing these parallels. So I'm gonna give you an example of just really rude Interruption and nonsense a lot of auditions. Hmm like nine zoom
Starting point is 00:19:58 Fusing them. They flew me out here. This scares me Do you know this reference zoom zoom zoom make my heart go boom boom boom my supernova girl. I do but I don't oh god It's xenon z3. Yeah, I don't have clothes equal no xenon girl of the century And that is where the age difference comes to play yeah Did you catch how that was British for cool fuckers? Take plus your heart the South go fuck yourself. It's like plus your heart in the south. Yeah. So he's talking about these auditions. He's going on Zoom auditions and then she has to go off and start singing a song. And that really is, I mean, you see it with Ray DeVito and Chad Zumach. If you
Starting point is 00:20:36 hear a word that triggers you into singing a song, you are a slow person. I'm telling you. Well, it reminds me of a song. Alright, so speaking of Sweeney Todd, he's talking about how he's performing on this Broadway musical and there's a question here. I think I know the answer. I've watched so many Broadway shows now. I feel very lucky. And you've been in one.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Been in one. Sweeney Todd. Sweeney Todd. What was that like? Amazing? They could just sing to Sutton Foster every night Were you friends with her? She's amazing. She's so cool. She's lovely. Like yeah, are you friends with her? She's amazing Chris asked me if I'm friends with that He's great. He's great. He's a good guy. Is he a birthday person? He's he's good. He's great. He's a good guy. Is he a birthday person? He's great. He's great. Obviously they're not. You couldn't be more uncomfortable and awkward sitting there during this. The host is not making the situation comfortable for the guest whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:21:37 And again, if that was the MO, the H-O-M-O, it would be one thing, you know, that's the show. You just sit there and Dylan makes the guest uncomfortable and it's kind of funny and awkward. But this is just what kind of vapid Yeah, self centered piece of shit. Dylan Mulvaney is wondering what other guests is she gonna get on the show? Because when you see people being treated like this You're like, oh, I don't want to go on that. I just got to entertain Dylan Mulvaney while she mugs for the camera for an hour. No, thank you. Hmm. It might be lost on Trisha Paytas Trisha
Starting point is 00:22:16 Might show up the set is pink. That's all she needs to know. She'll be there might be snacks This this Joe Luck guy is it's like he was born to do this podcast because he'll be the best guest they ever get. This guy who doesn't mind, just cut me off. I don't want to talk. He's like that friend you go out with that you're looking forward to. You can just sit.
Starting point is 00:22:35 They're going to talk forever. He's like, yeah, you just go. I'm tired. You just go. He's happy. She cuts him off. She belittles him. She makes him seem like he's her assistant
Starting point is 00:22:45 when he's actually the talented, successful one, and he doesn't give a shit. Anyone else who has any kind of thing to promote or wants to look good or just wanted to get their name out there is going to be so disappointed in having to stand here next to this microphone during this Dylan Mulvaney infomercial. I have the perfect example of what you're saying. This is my last clip on here, this is how the show ends. Everyone, I've had the best time with my dear friend Joe. Joe, do you have anything else to add?
Starting point is 00:23:15 I have to add the, no I have nothing to add. Okay. Would you ever host a podcast? I would if I, but I don't think I'd have a career if I did hmm I think give it some time I think you call it out Dylan there at the end Joseph podcast no I don't want to be in this situation there are certain people that I look at or hear or has that or have actually had conversations with where I don't understand them and they might as well be aliens, I would have no business being in the same room as
Starting point is 00:23:54 them because I just don't get it. There wouldn't be one second of time. I interviewed Perry Farrell once and it was exactly that. He sat he sat down he talked I didn't get anything He was saying there was nothing no common ground that I could grab on to and that's still in Mulvaney That's like a person that I'm looking at going might as well be from Mars I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about and The the idea that you'd talk to your gas and be like, all right, you have anything else to say? And he's like, yeah, I have, fuck man, I've got nothing. This is such a draining conversation. He can't even fake having something to say,
Starting point is 00:24:33 like promote something you're in or anything. He had no experience in finishing a sentence. He was just expecting her to cut him off. And when she didn't, he was just kind of left there. You know, there's an interesting quality that could be a play where people in the UK and Europe tend to like or fetish, like fetishize qualities of Americans that we don't necessarily like,
Starting point is 00:24:54 like the kind of I don't care what you think and I'm not self-aware and I'm just knocking stuff over, this kind of like over-the-top bullying American that I am not the biggest fan of but that people can be charmed by when they see it like wow look at that it's a real cowboy like they just don't give a fuck. Yeah I live my whole life going oh pardon me excuse me you know and these people just they don't give a fuck and I think they there's an idolization of that there's a kind of like acceptance of it in the way
Starting point is 00:25:22 we would accept a uptight posh person as, oh look at them, they're such a stereotype of that British guy, come here, you gotta meet this guy, he's an asshole. That kind of thing. So you think the British people like Dylan Mulvaney? Is that what you're telling me? Just, I mean listen, on top of the sexual things at play, I think the reason they might get along is what we find is very like Karen and just too much. Sometimes people from overseas find as a uniquely American quality, and they enjoy it in ways that we don't.
Starting point is 00:25:49 It reinforces why they hate us. Yeah. 100%. And rightly so. All right, the second segment of the show is, this is a great question. And that brings us to our next segment, what a girl wants. Every week, I'm going to be asking our guests, what does a girl wants every week. I'm gonna be asking our guests
Starting point is 00:26:05 What does a girl want? But in this case, what does a gay want? What does Joe Locke want Joe? What is something that you are desiring whether that's a Dyson Airwrap world peace anything in between? What are you looking for Joe? hmm hmm door yeah right be honest it's not something you need what do you want what do you want
Starting point is 00:26:30 i want this he can't he can't butter up the energy this is such a softball what's something you enjoy doing jesus i didn't know i could be asked that i'd rather be fucking a woman right now
Starting point is 00:26:46 An ice cream sandwich say anything Ten years of improv training. This is what he's got So of course Dylan is just all over the place Flowers and changes. Oh you did so you buy me flowers This is kind of coconutty it is I think I like it. Oh Mmm coconut donuts now. I'm thinking about church. Oh Who would follow this and I have this weird thing? Because I host a podcast that I think about all the other shows that are way better than mine
Starting point is 00:27:20 That are happening right now and I go fuck I got to up my game because there's so many options out there you go On YouTube and pick out a million shows people having a conversation with each other might better be the best conversation It's like these people are like literally trying to fill airtime There's nothing going on here nothing this is Dylan talks about what her type is I I think maybe like the distinct difference between our types is like,
Starting point is 00:27:49 oh, I think I know what I like that you don't. I like a man with a really skinny little finger. I like a man with a wedding ring. Oh my god, just what we need. A controversial person. No, I like a man that has really long slender fingers that Journals in the morning Kind of looks gaunt. I don't like that kind of sunken. Yeah, you're like a torchets kind of like a drummer
Starting point is 00:28:17 Yeah, you don't like that no, okay. See that's that's good Just keep saying stuff a guy with fat fingers is why she's sitting like that So I have a chance She asked him a question she answers it herself and then moves on just talks right over really yep Then they go into this Overshare don't care lightning round which is the most ridiculous part of the show, because it's just these quick random questions with one word answers, and I don't know how
Starting point is 00:28:50 anyone would find that entertaining in any way. And then we find out what they've been up to while they've been in Hollywood. I mean, it kind of did feel like AI, in the way that if you typed in Paris Hilton's birthday party, that would have popped up, as far as the collection of people in that room. Yeah yeah and I had a good time I had a great time but in that felt like that was like your first LA day technically yeah and you
Starting point is 00:29:13 took me to Paris Hilton's house it was it was a good place to take you tonight we are we're going to a Vanity Fair party we are and who are you wearing Mary Celine hmm I'm changing into something slightly sluttier Because this is it's a good party to like potentially kiss someone Okay That threw me off now. I wasn't surprised they went to Paris Hilton's birthday party. Yeah, it makes sense I get out of going to the vanity fair party, but the idea I'm trying to figure out like Who would be attracted to Dylan Mulvaney because Jim Norton is taken. Who
Starting point is 00:29:48 else is looking for a chick with a dick and I assume that that's what's going on. I haven't been told that officially. I think there's a world of hurt under that gown. I think you might be right. Why would you assume that? Why would that be the assumption? Well, I guess I didn't even think about it I guess it's because of Bob I guess it's because of this clip right here
Starting point is 00:30:10 Oh I just told me to organize it all I want to get paid to lay in bed I don't want that You don't? You aren't really You don't love a bed as much as I do See, it's again, it's girl shit Oh, I want to get paid to lay around all day And I love a bed as much as I do. See, it's again, it's girl shit. Like, oh, I want to get paid to lay around all day,
Starting point is 00:30:26 and I love birthdays, it's all I care about. It's about the closest you could get to doing nothing and laying in bed is what Dylan Mulvaney's doing. The fucking balloon is the thing with the most personality in that fucking room. Yeah, I walked in last night, I went for dinner, and I came home, and I walked in, in and I was like Dylan, where are you? And Dylan is buck naked in bed. Tits out. Tits out. Hair. And she's like hi. To the ceiling.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Always, can never get the hair out. It's all the fake hair. See this is why I think she's still got her unit in place. Because she's not going to try to scare this guy out of the, out of there with a post about crazy on this end of, I don't know enough about it. I'm just spit. Now there would be a lot of downtime during and after the surgery that we would have seen during that transitional phase of the stubble and before the hormones kicked in, I think we would have seen like Mia Dylan for a while while they do that
Starting point is 00:31:31 just sick twisted surgery There's probably still a cock and balls just the idea that Dylan's just hanging out buck naked in bad and her gas can get like walk in So how do you have that? She would have something and not talk about it openly. It sounds so weird to me. Like I feel like if she had one we'd be hearing about it or seeing it or it'd be you know banging on the table 24 7. All right.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Well I didn't do what you wanted Adam. Well it's a common thing with them. So she was probably hoping that the twink kid would you know disrobe and they'd roll around and have some of that, uh, what they call gay sex. That's what I'm picking up too on this, but I can be way off. Uh, one more clip on here. So they do this segment at the end is called last call confessions and I guess they take phone calls or voicemails and they about who to man, who to man, who to man, who to man. They don't do who to man. Let's go to the phone. It's not Friday. Who to man Friday? No, what's FU Friday? voicemails and they
Starting point is 00:32:27 Friday F you Friday you Friday Know whatever participates in FU Friday. It's so funny But this is the laziest thing and a lot of shows have this format was just like call in and we'll give you advice Like oh, yeah, I need advice from someone who took button light down it's like I don't need any advice from this person for a career or anything that I could possibly do. And again, I don't think she understands what iconic means. I think that I've always kind of erred on the side of like,
Starting point is 00:32:57 cringe is kind of iconic. So like, if you're ever trying to be cool, I think that that's not a great way to meet people because you're not showing up as your authentic self. Cringe is iconic. This person is talking about showing up as your authentic self. I know this, again, that's what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:33:17 In any context. Everything about Dylan Mulvaney is fake. Everyone sees right through it. And to use words like authentic self is so delusional. See, I think she's being her authentic self. And I think we would hate her exactly the same, whatever her gender or sexual preferences, it transcends that. And I think, yeah, maybe, just maybe, this kind of hate is progress, because we're getting to the point now where we don't just hate people because of a choice they made.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Like we can actually get to know them and decide how we feel. And we have people like Ava Riza who is John's last guest on his show talking about how Anthony Kumia is not a friend to the transgender community. But God damn it, he's funny. And people like John
Starting point is 00:34:06 have no place for that kind of duality, for those two thoughts at the same time. They don't know anything outside of defining a person for the thing we like the least or the thing we like the most about them. But this is something else. We just don't like them. It transcends all of those things. So we're at this point now where maybe that is something. Ava was begging me to come on this show so she could talk to Anthony. I said that's not gonna happen, but just out of curiosity, what would you talk to him about? And she's like, I would just talk to him about comedy. I'd like to ask him some questions. I just think it would mean
Starting point is 00:34:41 something for Anthony and a trans person to be on the same screen at the same time. I watched Ava on a Shulie show after the John thing. They went through it and then Ava popped on. Ava seems very cool and funny and this weird quirky personality is captivating. You know, it's compelling. And yeah, I wouldn't have any problem. Like I'm not going to be on no show, but it would never be that way. But you bring up a great point also in that we can hate people for who they are as people, not the categories they fit in. But imagine having that convenience that if people don't like you, you could just say, well, it must be because they're transphobic or Islamophobic or homophobic, whatever it is. And what a great shield to have against, oh, maybe I'm just a fucking asshole and people
Starting point is 00:35:35 just don't like me for me. My next door neighbor is Hispanic and when they moved in, my wife and I got them a little care package, welcome to the neighborhood kind of thing, went over. He was a total dick to us and he's been a prick to me for years And I don't know if he's racist against white people, but that's not my first thought Yeah, but you put green cards So unlikeable for so many reasons that's it's so far down the line for me to think of ethnicity or color.
Starting point is 00:36:06 Right, yeah, I can see why you dislike me, but not because of my race I wouldn't think. But I love that we're here at this point now where people like John who call themselves Democrat liberals and think they can use people as pawns and don't understand when they're not like, I don't just hate this person because of one thing they said or because you want me to. These are not lines that are drawn so hard. We can start to, at least they say that the greatest thing, the greatest way to get a group together
Starting point is 00:36:36 is to just exclude another one. And you look at this dabble verse, and I swear to God, it is the most diverse collection of older white men We got a Earl David Reed what else we got once I saw a girl, but it was Helga Yeah, no, please I'm sorry it's interesting when when Dylan was just a gay guy He was on prices right and after the Bud Light thing came out people were finding old footage and Dylan was the a gay guy, he was on Price is Right. And after the Bud Light thing came out, people were finding old footage, and Dylan was the most obnoxious contestant on the Price is Right.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Just needed so much attention, so over the top, and he went, oh, this person just- Which, by the way, is a perfect guest or contestant for the Price is Right. They want that. Correct. But I find it obnoxious and annoying. Yes. So- I'm trying to watch a serious game show here
Starting point is 00:37:31 So yeah, it has nothing to do with being trans Dylan's always been an obnoxious annoying retard I'm glad that we figured that out discovered that right here on who are these podcasts that out and discover that right here on Who Are These Podcasts. And that leads into our... Cringe of the Week. Now last week we were checking out PFG TV, our buddy Scorch, and Scorch was saying, there's only three episodes left. And then there... Until our next anniversary.
Starting point is 00:38:01 I know, he's always got got an anniversary for some reason. Anniversary. Yeah, of PFC TV and it's like I've been watching you do this for like 20 years Scorch. What is this one year anniversary? Yeah, yeah, he's so weird man. Was he always an alcoholic? That's new right? Yeah, that's kind of new. I don't remember him being a big drinker. Because he would do shows from bars years and years ago, even before Opie was doing it. And I don't remember him drinking and now he has to do a shot when the show starts and he's chugging cocktails throughout it. That hole that he has, that friggin woman who
Starting point is 00:38:39 won't shut up. It's not like Scorch has plenty to say anyway about anything. Right. but she will interrupt every fucking thing this guy tries to say. She's a perfect hole. Yeah, she's the worst. Oh, come on, scorch. I was playing the clip last week. She was trying to scorch to stop talking about Oh, my what is your role on this fucking talking about his app is yes, dive locator. It's so sad and just funny. Like dive bars are for the locals. You don't go somewhere to go to
Starting point is 00:39:14 a dive bar. It's not like they don't want you there. But I want to go to Arizona, because there's a dive bar there. You're there's dive bars everywhere. And they're populated by local people. You know, if someone from out of town walks in, they all kind of look like who the fuck is that? And there's no need for a dive bar locator app. It's so scorched. And the entire business model of that app is based on these
Starting point is 00:39:40 local cheap dive bars wanting to spend an excessive amount of money on online advertising for an app, which is always what local dive bars are into. They have this huge advertising budget they just look to spend on people like Scorch. I guess we'll pull from the Super Bowl this year and do this dive bar locator instead. So this is him starting up his show on the most recent episode, just last night live. You changed. Yep. Don't adjust your sets everyone.
Starting point is 00:40:07 This is not my fault. Oh no. Scorch is shut out of a can and he's all excited and he's got no volume. And he still doesn't know. And Brennan, they just never check anything before they go live. And Scorch actually is a staff.
Starting point is 00:40:22 He actually has people. It's not like Opie who's just putting duct tape on a camera somewhere this is the show where he actually brought content to it you can't hear it the show. Oh, my god. Oh, my Second to the glass show he goes you can tell to be one of these shows the kind riddled with technical difficulties Like every episode of Scorch's BFG TV As we know it Remember what I said about people have to start singing the fucking song Sure, why do you individuals it just popped in my head when she started singing exactly what you said. Yes. And my hatred for her feels pure. You know, I know I just hate her for her. And that's
Starting point is 00:41:33 nice. It's not all frumpy broads. Guys, we can all be honest, this guy's here. She's not because she's eye candy, right? That's really she's just a decoration on the set. Oh, yeah. Well, he's in love with her her he's highly in love with her every time he just can't he thinks this podcast is what it's gonna take to nag her mm-hmm people think a sidekick or a co-host has to be really animated and loud and over energized it's like no you just try to be something to have the host bounce off of. You can bounce a lot off of her, quite frankly.
Starting point is 00:42:11 But like Ed McMahon didn't constantly interrupt Johnny and sit there and start yelling about things and bouncing around in the seat. Well, according to John, the co-host for the Tonight Show supposed to sit third row audience Hold a coffee cup and never say a fucking word Job well done John What a different version of the show on the road but we say on the road because I guess we could start off with This is big with that. Let's mark Mike. Are we good to start off with that? Remember last week they got the vehicle wrapped and they didn't
Starting point is 00:42:48 get a photo of it yet, but he was excited about it. He noted off of his phone and he said yeah. He cried when he saw the logo on it. He literally broke into tears because it was a dream of his. It's just pure scorch and I love it. It's great. So this is the big reveal now. This is what brought him to tears Yeah, okay you guys are doing because because what's happening is starting well, okay, so camera We are leaving here on the 9th. Okay?
Starting point is 00:43:22 On the 9th. Wow! No, no, no. We're leaving on the 30th. In 9 days. 9 days from now. You're right. The show's done.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Yeah, let's go. So listen. So we went out and we got our motorhome. The DBL1. We told you about it last week. They call it DBL1. A dive bar locator. Douchebag something.
Starting point is 00:43:44 Douchebag losers. Douchebag losers. One. Okay. Yeah. Douchebag something. Douchebag losers. Douchebag losers. I'll show you some pictures of it. We actually brought it to a couple of the places as well. This that you see right now is the DBL back of my Jeep. So when people, because we're towing the Jeep behind the home. So that is the spare wheel cover.
Starting point is 00:44:04 I think that's what brought him to tears Seeing that all right. Yes. Yes, this logo is so stupid People see that but they're gonna be able to see the the QR code on the whole Driving a vehicle to have a click QR code as we're getting chased out of town. Could you imagine someone in a car next to this thing going, I can't get the URA. Is there a convertible?
Starting point is 00:44:36 Yeah, yeah, it's bouncing too much. I wanna know what the dive bar locator is. Like no one would give a shit. Fucking idiots. And believe me when I tell you, Dive bar locator is like no one would give a shit And believe me when I tell you people are taking notice of this hole Oh, man, they're honking when we're rolling down the road. I've got I actually someone posted You're dragging a child Going the wrong way. Well, everyone's paying attention to this thing.
Starting point is 00:45:08 He keeps stopping so they can scan the code, and they keep slamming into him. Somebody in the DBL1 coming back from a certain place this morning at about 6 o'clock in the morning. Whoa, whoa. Things are getting weird. OK, got it. So we went and we checked out a few of the family members
Starting point is 00:45:24 from Dive Bar Locator, which we went we checked out a few of the family members from dive bar locator Which we'll get into in a second First one would have been this picture here, which was just some dude that we went to the white pig in Mandovi Members name I named after her. Yeah. Did they ever zoom in on this thing? I want to see what this thing looks like. I don't remember his name, but he kicked him in. He's like, you're Scorch! Oh my god! I love it! He's not gonna care if you remember his name. He did. And then the white pig.
Starting point is 00:45:56 The white pig. I think they zoom in on this thing at some point. Yeah, we should probably do this. Dude, thank you. I'll zoom in on it for you, Scor score. Jeez, Louise, what is this color scheme? Oh, my god, feeded by a gang of gay people. Someone suggests it was a you guys that were suggesting that it was the cheapest colors they had available. Yeah, if you want purple and neon green and this horrible version of maybe red,
Starting point is 00:46:28 in the book, they're like, well, these colors, they're our cheapest ones. There's not much of a demand for this. What was the concept for the design? It was like, just throw the paint at it and let it land? That's what we're going with. I've seen vehicles get wrapped before. Like when I worked at ebounds world
Starting point is 00:46:45 We got a van wrapped that we would drive around and you typically want to cover it with all sorts of different shit Not just a logo the name and then random swooshes For no reason at all and they're like bad people are really taking notice thing either pointing and laughing exactly Your eye doesn't know what to settle on it's like the world Ever you don't know what you're supposed to be looking at. What is it? It's just a bunch of shit. Think Nike Swish, you know, as a logo. It's very simple. Everyone knows it. Very identifiable. This is all over the place. There's a guy with a drink, a camera, that the shirt is busy.
Starting point is 00:47:24 No one even knows what a dive by locator is. Right. Yeah, keep it simple, stupid. I never talk about this, but I used to be in marketing. Did I tell you that before? No. Wow, I never knew that. If this logo ever went out to a client,
Starting point is 00:47:37 our designer would be fired immediately. This is such an amateur design, like you said, for a logo. You want to keep it simple, so but iconic, so that as you build your Brand people recognize and immediately go. Oh, that's like for example a garbage can with headphones on perfect nailed it around the gates Never need to revisit it again Perfect logo right right why does he have a camera? late 90s early
Starting point is 00:48:00 2000s clip art right yeah So so obviously this is a tourist because there's a camera because you know tourists have cameras on them. Right. And he's holding on to a drink with an umbrella in it. So it tells me it's like a fancy cocktail, which if it's a dive bar, it should be a pitcher of beer. Yeah. Yeah. This guy's on a cruise or a vacation in the Caribbean or something, not in a dive bar where you would just, you know, it should be some guy with an army jacket on, a beer in his hand. Yeah, this guy's gonna get ass kicked at the dive bar.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Yeah, he will. We all know you're a local fucking piece of shit. When that walks into your local bar, you're not like, let's make him feel welcome. Yeah. And I love how Scorch is just like, for him, this is actually an idealized version of himself on there He's like I just shaved and cleaned up a little bit if I could afford a camera and a clean shirt
Starting point is 00:48:50 That'd be me on there look at that guy this brought him to tears yes To tell that's right because he saw himself, and it was just so beautiful and so far They've only sold this into bars in Wisconsin What about this logo? Do you does that scream Wisconsin dive bar to you? That's where you're looking on the app to be like, oh, I wonder if this place is good. I don't know, this guy with the Hawaiian shirt
Starting point is 00:49:12 seems to like it. It would succeed in keeping me away. For sure. Where being a dive bar don't mean shit. What does that mean? Dude, that's the worst tagline. Scorch explained it once, I still don't understand it. I mean, I get it in theory.
Starting point is 00:49:26 I know what he's trying to say, but it actually is a bunch of words that you read and you know less for having read the sentence. You know because you know what the dive bar locator is. If you were just driving by and read this, you wouldn't know what the fuck it means. Where being a dive bar don't mean shit. And you have to censor it too? So he can't write the word shit? So like pick a different word if you can't write. And you have to have to send to so he came right the word shit. So like pick a different word if you can't write the word you want to put on there. But yeah, he's trying to say dive bars are cool.
Starting point is 00:49:53 How about dive bars are cool? Dive bar low. There you go. Just again, keeping things simple. That's why you get the big. That's good. Mm hmm.

You know, it's no different than, you know, police officer running to the scene
Starting point is 00:51:08 of a crime or a firefighter running into a burning building. It's what I do. And of course, Tom Myers is trying to get his watch hours up. So I'm here to help. I wanted to get monetized and get in those dollar 99 super chats coming in. So I'm gonna go to his website where he posts all of his podcast episodes. This one came out on Thursday and as you know I love the monologue. The monologue is really where he brings out his talents and it shows he's a better comedian and podcasters than the rest of us. Hello and welcome to Tom Myers versus the rest of the world. How many views do you think this has? We can't see right now producer
Starting point is 00:51:49 Chris. Well, if you had a guess, it's been up since Thursday. Oh, since Thursday. Yeah, his new episode. Does it? I was gonna say 30. Yeah, like 15 people. 41. Wow. Three of us is mean at this point. You gotta put yourself in there. A genuine percentage.
Starting point is 00:52:12 I can't believe how close everyone just got to that. Everyone nailed it. That was being generous. Well, it's worth noting that these are OPI numbers. Yeah, yeah. It's the same audience. I said 30 because I thought of OPI's views. Yeah. I'm like in a in a couple days, Opie will have 126. So, maybe he has 15
Starting point is 00:52:30 now. Oh, unless he's talking about me and then, you know, it's a couple of thousand but or unless he's not in the clip. Right, right. If he's just using old interviews from Sirius XM or WNEW. Thielvon said something funny to another guy and I watched. It's the best of my show. We're learning more and more about Donald Trump in his second term as president of the United States. For example, we now know that Donald Trump is the answer to the age-old question, who would be a big enough asshole to piss off Canada? What do you think? Pretty good opener right there. I get it. Like, yeah, it's a joke. I'll give you that. It is
Starting point is 00:53:12 technically a joke. If you dissected it, there would be the organs of a joke. Correct. Yeah, we got it. It doesn't mean we we want it. Right. Have it back now. Like AIDS. AIDS you got it speaking of Canada they now have a new Prime Minister Mark Carney it's nice to see Canada following our lead and going for an older chief executive it's nice to see him trying to patch things up with us by trying to relate to us by electing a leader who like Trump looks like he's already decomposing. Holy shit. This is a written down joke. How many words? Where's the end of that joke?
Starting point is 00:53:53 I gotta back that one up again. I might have to stop for gas. And pay attention to this. Pay attention to how the tone, it's always the same. It always starts by right here and then we run out of energy till we get down to the end of the joke. I went on energy listening it's so long. Yeah it would kill any joke even if it was good you can't deliver it like that. That's why he does the Scottish ending. I tried to break it back up again. Scottish Aussies do that. I saw a big jack. I put in a bite, I saw a big jack. Soft Canada.
Starting point is 00:54:31 Speaking of Canada, they now have a new prime minister, Mark Carney. Okay. It's nice to see Canada following our lead and going for an older chief executive. It's nice to see him trying to patch thing. It's nice to see. It's nice to see. Start two sentences in a row. How do you not proofread that and go? oh yeah, I gotta use a different term?
Starting point is 00:54:47 I don't post like Twitter posts. If I see that I've done that, like you read it quickly and go, yeah, this is stupid. People would think I'm retarded if I put the same. In the show description today, I said, join us at 2P. And then in the next sentence I said, Adam and Anthony will be joining us. I went, oh, like that's stupid. There we will be joining us. I went, Oh, that's stupid.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Garbage. Things up with us by trying to relate to us by electing a leader who, by trying to relate to us by electing a leader again, it's just totally written. I, yeah, yeah. Patch things up with us by trying to relate to us by electing a leader who, like Trump, looks like he's already decomposing. Actually, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:33 I might be giving Tom too much credit here, but he sees a crappy punchline like that and he's like, oh, I got to put a paragraph in the middle of that. Yeah. He could have gotten to that so much quicker. Right. None of that. Yeah, he could have gotten to that so much quicker. Right. None of that was necessary. Again, I think there's similarities between Tom and Opie.
Starting point is 00:55:50 They both, in their mind, they know about working hard. Like they know what that is, and they know they're supposed to apply that to the thing they love. So Opie thinks the best way to work hard is to show them all that I can get up at 5 a.m. every day. Doesn't matter what talk about as long as I'm right. That's the job the job is we're looking for someone who can Get up early. Oh this guy's got it, and that's what he's doing. I need to comb my hair. That's not necessary great It's radio why would you but this guy Tom loves writing I gotta work hard Jerry Seinfeld works hard
Starting point is 00:56:22 So so I'll write and they like writing and they just keep writing because they think that's working hard And I bet he even has a good joke every once in a while and then completely over writes it because Do something and it's no idea where this energy is supposed to be placed and then here are we Shitting on him for all of his hard work for all of his hard work. Shame on us. Right? Exactly. A lot has happened since the last time we were on this show.
Starting point is 00:56:50 During Trump's speech, Congressman Al Green was escorted out of the chamber for heckling when Trump incorrectly said he had a mandate from the American voters. What was that? A little editorializing. Yeah. Yeah. It's so unnecessary to do that, but it's got to be political on his side of
Starting point is 00:57:12 things. I think this one gets a big pop. On speech, Congressman Al Green was escorted out of the chamber for heckling when Trump incorrectly said he had a mandate from the American voters. A black member of Congress being marched out is the perfect Symbol for how far back the Republican Party wants to take this country Low-hanging fruit, but they The fans love it. Yeah, the panel was like well, it sounded like a joke Republicans are racist and do what slavery so In a publicity stunt on the White House lawn
Starting point is 00:57:53 Trump pretended to buy a Tesla Elon Musk Of course we all know he wasn't pretending because much like his dealings with contractors and attorneys no money changed hands much like his dealings with contractors and attorneys, no money changed hands. White House press secretary. You know that one actually there's something you could make that into a joke. He just never knows how to end it. Like the punchline doesn't end in the right spot. We already all know what the joke is and he's still going. Where's Pat Oates when you need him.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Right. Just need to rewrite that one a little bit. I definitely have a similar quality about sticking the landing, but it's fun to see how the people, anybody laughing or making a comment completely throws him off. He needs all of his concentration to get through this, and anything happening is a distraction and kind of makes him angry. Hearing laughs after he, what the hell is that?
Starting point is 00:58:39 I think you're right. His first instinct is like, something's happening. It's not good. It's funny you say that. I don't know where it is in here, but I was listening to this earlier, and he gets really messed up by the panel coming up here No money changed hands White house press secretary caroline levitt said that god blessed her with the job of press secretary
Starting point is 00:58:59 I think god is waiting to see if she should be drowned in the next incarnation of the great flood What I think God is waiting to see if she should be drowned in the next incarnation of the great flood. What? I don't even get that. God is waiting to see if she should be drowned? Are we moving too fast for you? Incarnation? Floods have incarnations. Keep up. You know the Bible cyclical happens every 20,000 years.
Starting point is 00:59:29 Okay, sure. Oh my God. They say comedy is rhythm and music and his song is climate scientists will happen in three weeks. Oh, it was a tag. Climate side to say that will happen in three weeks There's a tag climate side to say that will happen in three weeks I got a musk stoge agency is now making cuts to Social Security Thankfully we have someone speaking out on behalf of Social Security recipients Unfortunately it fell to the task of its most recent Commissioner Martin O'Malley It's hard to get hopeful about Social Security being saved when it's being defended by Martin
Starting point is 01:00:08 O'Malley who, from his time as the governor of Maryland, could put people to sleep reading an erotic novel. That was a lot of information we had to get through to get to that joke. All right. I'm sure that that guy is really boring though. Good stuff. On his Fox show, Jesse Waters was watching a video of Doug Emhoff and Kamala Harris going grocery shopping and wondered what kind of husband goes grocery shopping with his wife. This is par for the course for Jesse Waters as any opportunity his wife has to not spend
Starting point is 01:00:43 any time around her husband, she takes it. The reactions from the panel who have to be like, ah, yeah, okay, that's pretty good. There's so many better ways to word that joke. It wouldn't be funny anyway. And the Tom sees everything through this thing like Jesse Waters bad. So his wife hates him. It's like, that's the joke. Yeah Do you want to go a little deeper than that? Nope? That's the joke. Okay, cool
Starting point is 01:01:10 Jesse waters is basically a dildo who was lucky enough to get his own TV show Basically a dildo, okay, maybe his wife likes dildos What's a wife See waters gives out an air of someone who only gets laid when his wife pegs him News there protests I Always live when Tom does sex jokes. Yeah, he's a 40 year old virgin He's just like this guy's not even getting laid like ah Don't go there
Starting point is 01:01:50 Guys like us who are getting laid all the time we can laugh at guys like that, huh? Guys like us and where's the I thought it's so annoying because they're not jokes They're just political statements and the laughter isn't laughter because it's funny It's laughter to acknowledge the statement that you made and support it like this is a Church sermon or something but then they hear him like what is he upset? So now getting pegged is is we shame that that's not okay, but you're the liberal Democrat in the Republican What are you saying? What do you so what if Jesse waters wants to get pegged if that's revealed? What's gonna happen next? It'll be funny. Jesse waters gets pegged. It's embarrassing
Starting point is 01:02:25 But when did I'm all baby does it it's fucking great. I guess yeah I mean, no, it's a great point. You're like, yeah, you know, Jesse waters that guy. I don't like who's a dildo also He's gay. Yeah Pretty good political commentary there Tom and he likes, you know being a dildo for women, but then he like I know it Sounds like a full day. It sounds like he's doing what he likes and he's having fun. It doesn't really bother me that much. In international news, there are protests in Serbia against their government, which is pro Vladimir Putin and pro Donald Trump.
Starting point is 01:02:59 Donald Trump Jr. said that the protests were fake and that they were not genuine. This is from the guy who is engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle who who looked like she had so much plastic surgery that her face was a hundred percent plastic. Just the name Kimberly Guilfoyle. The one was like, that must be the punch line, right? Oh, fuck. Yeah. They almost saved them. That's where you stop. That's the joke part of it. And then to tag on all that nonsense on the end of that. She's had so much plastic surgery. How much plastic surgery? So much that her face is all plastic. Looks plastic. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:46 You know when your four year old kid comes into the room and is like you ate so many carrots you're gonna turn into a carrot. You're like that's not funny. I support everything you do but shut up. That's not funny. You don't like carrot jokes huh? You're not getting bullied enough at daycare. I'm bringing you somewhere else.
Starting point is 01:04:02 Yeah. Who's craft something all right I'm gonna hear that again yeah the protests were fake and that they were not genuine this is from the guy who is engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle who yes who looked like she had so much plastic surgery that her face was a hundred percent plastic and now all with the show right yeah let's stop all this fun serious political talk now down and away we go. Another girl warmed up. It sounded like the one panelist was reading over his shoulder and he's like hmm
Starting point is 01:04:40 don't do it man. When they laugh at Kimberly Guilfoyle you can see him like reading it and they laugh and he just shoots them a look like Yeah, I got more finished this yeah, and I can't finish this And I talked about it before but I go back to the beginning with this time I was the rest of the world and at first the panel didn't know what to do with this monologue It'd be better if we just recorded it separately and then brought on his guests and started the show. Because they have to sit there uncomfortably. And then like there's only three people, so they have to like, you know, like you were
Starting point is 01:05:15 saying, acknowledge it and kind of laugh. And at first it was just silence. And now they know that they're supposed to laugh, but they don't know why anything's funny. So they really have to try to figure out like, do I acknowledge the joke now or yeah, they obviously don't know where the punchline is. They're stupid. Well, it's also very difficult to decipher what Tom thinks is the punchline. Exactly. From time to time, it can be difficult. All right, let's
Starting point is 01:05:43 get into our buddy Greg Patrick Melton just started covering Opie the other day and I was watching him It's always good to get a different perspective on things because we've gotten pretty close to the Sun on this one And he was talking about all these voices that Opie does Opie's never figured out what his own personality is And that's why he's always doing these different characters and what reminded me of that is even that Intro song which was played on his podcast back when it was Westwood One. Brother man was stolen from brother wheeze. Yeah. And he
Starting point is 01:06:31 just take took that at his own. And now that's his thing. And cheers. He stopped doing that. Do you notice that? Yeah, yeah. People are calling him on the Ron Bennington thing. Just like Ron Bennington, the moment he admitted to it, he stopped doing it. He stopped doing it. And his voices and everything he does, he's another guy who has no identity. He doesn't know who he is. Well, most things he does, everything he does is taken from something, and he doesn't even know it most of the time.
Starting point is 01:06:58 His take whenever I hear him go, the future, that's me. That was my shit where I talk about, Oh, goodness gracious. Look at this, an aeroplane. We're winging into the future. And he does that. He does, uh, there's quite a few things of mine that I used to do on, on the ONA show that he just grabbed and does like it's, and then talks about how awful I am and was using And he's using my shit.
Starting point is 01:07:27 All right. Well, this is the big news of the week. Erock was on Chrissy Mayer show and talking about how he has all the old Opie and Anthony episodes archived on hard drives. And someone asks Opie about that in the chat, of course, Richulo, is it true that you asked Erock for the ONA archive, but he refuses to give it to you until you grow up like an adult and talk to him? Yeah, I guess.
Starting point is 01:07:50 He could keep the ONA archives. I'm not playing his stupid game. I think he, if I'm to believe the internet, which is crazy, I get it. Supposedly if I become a human being, then I could get my my life's work back The longest fake laugh ever I got that's the longest fake laugh I've seen him do that's impressive All he does is believe the internet
Starting point is 01:08:19 What is he talking about every comment that comes up concerning me from obvious trolls that tell him what money I'm making at ABC and all that, he takes it as gospel and goes off on it on some tirade. So yeah, you believe all that nonsense. Oh, he's, Anthony's trashing right now. Oh, is he? He's trashing me again. He's a piece of garbage Let me tell you about Anthony. I know some things about him. He doesn't want to get out He wasn't want getting out so he does he pulls that shit on my clip package today Yeah, if you want to know the truth. You want to know the truth? Oh, I love that one if you want to know the truth look at his Blair Witch fucking video quality, too
Starting point is 01:09:02 It's 2025 You could have HD video at 10 bucks. I know it would not be difficult to get a better camera. But now the duct tape is already stuck on this one and it's a pulling off. Get the goo gone. When you submit self tapes, when you make any kind of video for broadcast, the first thing you're always told is do not shoot in front of an open window. Right. That's just not what we do. And I got to tell
Starting point is 01:09:29 you something. If anybody just saw him say this and read that, they would not be on his side. You don't need any context. So I'm hassling or I'm talking to this person, I'm sending them messages about something I want. And they say to me, you'll get what you want when you start talking to me like a real human being and acting like a human. Anybody who hears that is going to go, you're at fault, buddy. They're right. Like, if that's what they're asking of you, then you're not doing it. And to respond to that by laughing into the sky and not acknowledging it is in fact inhuman and proving their point. Yes. Well said because this continues for a while.
Starting point is 01:10:12 Are you guys getting it yet? Are you guys getting it yet? I need, hear me out, I need to be a human being and then I can get my life's work back. He's doing the whole who's with me? Are you guys seeing how crazy this is? I mean, who's with me? And everyone's just like, no, no, no, I think it's pretty reasonable. Stop poking your finger into his face, hands at your sides. That's not a healthy way to have a conversation, Opie. Right. And it's kind of what we were talking about before,
Starting point is 01:10:47 getting his life's work back. He's already gotten millions of views on videos from our radio show. Yes. Did I see a penny of it? Did Jim Norton see a penny of it? No. So what's this my life's work?
Starting point is 01:11:02 You've used it already. You've gotten millions of hits You've made money off of your YouTube channel because you post shit that is Actually the property of serious XM satellite radio WNEW CBS radio Viacom all these Places that that have a legal right to this material. He's been putting them up, he's been making money, he hasn't shared it with anyone else
Starting point is 01:11:28 who had a lot more to do with the resulting video than he ever did. So what is he talking about, his life's work? Please. Yeah, and he's gonna get into it now. I watched Eric when he was talking about this. He actually told OPI, hey, we can buy all of our archives. We can buy the rights to them for a pretty low rate. Do you think we should do that?
Starting point is 01:11:50 And Opie said, I'm ready to do that. Yeah. So he gave him a chance to own all this shit and Opie said no. So Eric now has it and we'll get into that. I have the clip of what Eric was saying, but real quick, uh, he decides to deflect now because you can tell yours doesn't know how to respond to this. He already has said nothing. He's just laughing like, Oh, my life's work. Okay, I got to be a human. And so now he's going to say how much he's worked on himself. This drives me crazy right here.
Starting point is 01:12:20 I sit here sometimes and I just, I want understanding. I really do. I want to take responsibility for my part in the whole craziness of the opiate Anthony world. I have gone to therapy, I've looked deep into myself. I still got things to figure out. I'm a work in progress. But he rocked
Starting point is 01:12:50 If it's true said I need to become a human being and then I could get my life's work back This is coming from a guy That worked for a monster Are you gonna make believe you didn't know all the crazy shit that Anthony does that kind of doesn't make them look like a human being. So this is maybe more endearing to people. This is a deflection. Opie, this is what's so crazy about Opie. He must know how stupid the sounds to say, I'm working on myself. I'm going to therapy.
Starting point is 01:13:19 And by the way, he rocks out a good guy because he worked for Anthony and he's a jerk and I don't like him. And so that means that he's out a good guy because he worked for Anthony and Anthony's a jerk and I don't like him. And so that means that he's also a bad guy too. It's like no therapist would tell you that that's the solution to your problem. First of all, yeah, I'm, I'm the monster. Um, I, I have a great relationship with everyone aside from one or two people over the course of 30 years in, in the radio business with OPI, 20, but the last 10 years being on my own.
Starting point is 01:13:49 Yeah, I still have great relationships. I talk to them on regular basis. One of my best friends is Jim Norton, who we did the show with obviously. Garrett from the N.E.W. days up until compound media and now still with Garrett and Steve doing a show. I love that. Everyone I've worked with at Compound Media, unless you know the guy that was stealing shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:16 But he has nobody. No one wants to have a relationship with this guy after you've worked with him. That's because he was the boss. I'm somehow the monster. He didn't want to be the boss. Because I go to the Atlantic City with the some girl and gamble $30,000 on one hand to blackjack. Yeah, it was crazy. You know, oh, Anthony did crazy stuff. Yeah. Fun as fuck. Let me tell you. And yeah, I definitely tore it up. Yeah, fun as fuck. Let me tell you. And yeah, I definitely tore it up and and made some mistakes as we all do whatever. But monster, well, I'm a monster. I'll just I'll just say this and everyone says I'm an Anthony ball washer. So it
Starting point is 01:14:58 doesn't matter at this point. But I know pretty well over a half dozen people who worked for you at Compound. I've talked to them a ton. We've done shows and stuff like that. None of them have a bad thing to say about working for Anthony and working for Compound. Even though everyone wanted them, they got invited to every show to dish dirt and talk all this shit. None of them took the bait because they know for Anthony is not working for a monster. You're actually pretty cool. When I go up to New York,
Starting point is 01:15:32 that Friday, I do Sid Rosenberg show on W ABC in the morning. And then that night I'm going to Chrissy's new studio and doing her show. Yeah, I still have relationships with these people. We still like each other and enjoy each other's company. Name one fucking person that we've ever worked with. I talked to people from BAB, when OPI was on BAB in the early to mid-90s that have shit to say. They shit talk OPI. There's not one former employee that can stand this fucking guy. But I'm the monster. Erock's an idiot for seeing Opie as inhuman and not me. So again, projecting and throwing shit away.
Starting point is 01:16:12 And the other thing that Opie does that drives me crazy, I think I have more examples coming up, is he can just be so vague about things. Yes, it's all vague. So rather than a specific accusation, well Eric's bad because he worked for Anthony, Anthony's a monster. What? It's fabrication.
Starting point is 01:16:29 Point it out. Give me an example. But it's the best because whenever Opie gets something wrong or doesn't nail it, he is a work in progress. If you have too much fun in Vegas. You're a monster. And Iraq is an idiot. And the worst thing you could do is call me inhuman. But you're a monster for undefined reasons. And by the way, the reason Anthony's not so precious about his life's work is because his life isn't over. Oh, be still doing it. Making work. Yeah, I don't give a shit about getting the ONA material. First of all, anything worth listening to is already online and has been for decades. What you want the Greg Brady interview that we did? Yeah, that's probably on tape
Starting point is 01:17:16 somewhere. You could probably still find that online. But there are you know, the rest of it, who needs it? Well, I don't care. I've moved on with my life and my show. I see, I see potential every day for new material. Right. This guy is trying to get a 30, 20, 30 year old material to pop up on his YouTube. It's what does the best for him and he has no problem stealing it anyway. True. But after calling you a monster, listen to this. How does that work in your head that I need to become a human being to get my life's work back,
Starting point is 01:18:00 but you literally work for Anthony who doesn't really show signs of being a human being at times? How does that work in your head for real? You hired him. It was your idea. And I'm not even, I know know this is gonna be confusing to people But I'm not even taking a shot at Anthony It is what it is That is confusing. That's confusing to me. I thought you called him a monster. I respect monsters He calls me a monster yet He's not trashing me and then he cries that I'm trashing him when I literally say, get a better camera,
Starting point is 01:18:29 get a better mic, prep for your show, listen to your guests, stop looking at the chat. All these things are just suggestions to do a better show. He sees that as me trashing him, yet he calls me inhuman and a monster, but I'm not trashing him. All right I guess that makes it true. I guess you can say whatever you want about someone just back and by the way, that's not trashing him Oh, right. Cool. I sounds good and still obvious here trying to defend his right to not be a human being
Starting point is 01:18:58 Defending this like it's a no Do with Anthony he brought up Anthony Go on about that as he does here. Anthony has chosen to live his life in an insanely crazy way. Okay. Are you really a crazy lifestyle down there in South Carolina, Anthony?
Starting point is 01:19:21 By the way, I am so fucking chill now and have been for pretty long time now during the days of the Roslyn Heights house parties and stuff. And after I broke up with a girlfriend of nine years, uh, oh yeah, it was fucking nuts for a few years there. Um, time of my life had a great, uh, great time, but like he's talking that I'm going nuts every day. I, I do my show from my house, me and missy go into Greenville, South Carolina, have some dinner, a couple of glasses of wine.
Starting point is 01:19:56 I'm back home. I'm watching TV. I'm a mad man. Maybe it's my crazy glass. Calm down, Anthony. Yeah. Holy shit. Going after your lifestyle at this point is ridiculous. See, like, you own a house that's on a bunch of land, and you join it.
Starting point is 01:20:14 Yeah. Ooh, look out. He says he's apolitical. He says he's not a Democrat or a liberal, but what somebody does alone in their house at night bothers him and he feels the right to judge and it makes you a monster. All right. Let's take a look at what Eric said since Opie won't look it up. He just heard about it from the internet.
Starting point is 01:20:37 Maybe we can put some context to this. Preserved. He goes back to Opie. Yeah, there was a clip where he's saying, it's like, oh, I stole all this stuff from Preserved Goes back to Opie Yeah, there was a clip where he's saying it's like I stole this stuff from it's like I begged you for years to own Buy the thing have the ownership take the copies wouldn't do it now Ten plus years later the clips he wants him for YouTube. He's expecting just to hand stuff over I got a text from him some at one point and he said, he's like, just send me what you think
Starting point is 01:21:07 I deserve, what you think is mine or something like that. Wow. I sent him a few things that were pre-NEW stuff, and that was all I gave him. It's like, fuck you, dude, you don't wanna talk, you don't wanna be a human being, why am I gonna help you? Yeah, if he was nicer to you, maybe. You don't wanna talk,
Starting point is 01:21:21 you don't wanna be a human being, why should I be nice to you? Because they're very passive aggressive, all right, so just send me what you think. I should own them. Yeah. Yeah. Like what a dick. But the onus on Iraq. And if you take the context of that, like you didn't talk to me, you don't talk to me about this, you know, when you can be a human being, that isn't like, you're not human, correct in human. It's like human beings discuss this and talk about it and say, hey, here's why I want this and whatever, whatever the debate would be between him and
Starting point is 01:21:52 Iraq. The phrase, be a human being is kind of not literal in that twisting this to make it look like it's something and it's nothing. Iraq is saying grow up here and be a fucking man Right talk to me and also. I don't think he said your life's work Yeah, yeah, he never said that Iraq Told us on this show a couple of times how he tried to keep relationship with Greg Reached out to him a few times tried to meet up with them and Opie's never wanted anything to do with him. Now all of a sudden Opie wants something and Eric's the bad guy. Of course. Isn't Chrissy great for putting some plants for Erock to graze on during the show? That is nice. Very nice of her. I remember when you had that next to your swimming pool on Long Island. Yes. Your Erock statue. Long Island. Yes. Your Iraq statue.
Starting point is 01:22:48 Yes, I also like to see how Opie and Stuttering John they both never are aware of the reality of the show they're doing at the time Like he keeps talking about these things and saying how he's not gonna talk to Iraq and I don't I'm grown up I'm a human being then why are you talking alone in your room to your invisible friend? Like why don't you just be a human being right call him up? You're so brave from the safety of your home alone when we can't see your face now You're talking to him with no problem. You won't shut up about it Yeah, I think I want to talk on the phone and now your child this conversation You're having with no one right now could be had with someone if you wanted to Maybe work like to see it it everyone would like to see it
Starting point is 01:23:26 That would be the beginning of a fucking show because you won't do it We're here doing it for you and imagining what you'd say and it's never as insane as what you actually would So why are you pretending to be so deeply involved while unaware at the same time of everything going on in your life? Mm-hmm. All right, so he went after Anthony for a little while just as a side. Now it's back to Eric. And this is, I'm interested to hear what Anthony thinks about this. I guess, you know, Ira, when you were crying at work and I was the one there to talk to you and actually give you a hug, ooh, maybe I gotta go back to doing that.
Starting point is 01:24:06 And then maybe then I can get my life's work back. Yeah, I don't think touching people is gonna help, Opie. I don't think that's the change you need is to start going around touching people. So can you believe that? Now he's saying that Eric was crying at work and Opie was the only one there to comfort him. Can so him?
Starting point is 01:24:23 Opie will make shit up in his head and absolutely 100% believe it. I've seen this over the years where he'll call someone out about something and we all know it never happened, but he has it in his head and it is mutated into a reality. It actually happened. He now reacts to the person like it happened. He talks about it like it actually happened. It's fucking psychotic. I've seen him do this. The dice thing. Andrew Dice Clay on Howard Stern. And he goes, yeah, he was making f- jokes about my dad when my dad got in a car
Starting point is 01:25:01 accident. And it never happened. It never happened. I tried to find it up. He brings it up all the time. I listen up, like, that's not what they talked about at all. They were talking about Man Cow. Yeah, they weren't even talking about Opie. He has this unbelievable sense of self-worth, grandiose.
Starting point is 01:25:22 Very visionist history. They're talking about him, like in code. Like the mental patients that listen to the radio and go, okay, yeah, they're talking to me. He must know somewhere, because underneath, if he really could call up Erock and be like, buddy, do you remember that day you were crying and I held you?
Starting point is 01:25:40 Like, if he could actually bridge that gap, he would. He must know it's made up, and that's why he's talking to a screen. just like that scene with meatloaf and Fight Club Reminds me of Stuttering John with the Carl posted my book on his patreon thing. Yes, so give me says it enough times He's convinced him so I'm convinced. He's convinced himself that yes really happened, and I'm sure Opie thinks that this really happened do you remember Eric crying at work is it seemed like Eric had a pretty thick skin with how much you guys but do you know why he's fabricating this every story why is that to prove that he's a human
Starting point is 01:26:16 being ah yes all of a sudden I was the one since his childhood way and Iraq walked on the beach and just saw one set of footprints. They do that in interrogations when they're talking to a suspect. And they're like, you know, if your wife was really missing, you haven't cried once. We've been here three hours. What do they do? Immediately, the tears start coming. They're showing you that they can cry.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Not like, wow, that's even more evil than when you were just cold. Him trying to show us what a human he is now, alone in his room, is just some scary stuff. Talking about the wife in past tense when they, it's just a missing person. Right. Uh-huh. I love that shit, man.
Starting point is 01:26:59 So now he's just going to sarcastically chat with Eric directly on his show. E-Rock, if you're watching, and I know you do, I will try to become a human being. I'm gonna try just for you so I could get my life's work back. Doing a great job. Call your old boss. That's how you get your life's work back. Call the company that still and forever has the rights to that stuff. What is he talking to Erock? Erock has tapes of everything. Right, Erock smuggled it out but he doesn't own it. Right, yeah, good point. Our agent, a bononima, Bob Eitman, the late Bob Eitman, many years ago after the
Starting point is 01:27:47 N.E.W. thing and we got on Sirius, he talked to people over at CBS radio at the time, whatever it was Viacom, and said, how much? How much for the rights to everything? And they made an offer like a couple hundred thousand dollars. It wasn't all that much, comparably speaking. And oh yeah, Opie was just like, no. And I was like, no, I didn't give a shit. Why do I need fucking shit we did years ago? We're making new material every fucking day.
Starting point is 01:28:17 But he never wanted to do that. But now, somehow he thinks E-Rock is preventing him from having what is rightfully his his life's work and it's interesting when Eric tells the story about who owns the rights to it because movie studio reached out to request audio for a movie they were making and no one claimed to have ownership of the old open entity archives they're like yeah I guess you just use it here you go so it's like public domain now like the Indians like a hidden bird crash yes like all these radio stations have been wiped out none of the people who worked there even know open Anthony were out of the station and in serious XM they've
Starting point is 01:28:58 moved they moved on from Howard already like they have moved on they got my shit going out yeah yeah they're trying to get their podcast wing set up Which by the way, I'm proved that opi knows nothing about serious XM as now we get into Sam Roberts Anthony what is this thing where They all have the delusion that everyone they've ever met and worked with is watching their show at all times Where does that come from what I know you're watching it's it's odd too because there's also this juxtaposition where he will say he never watches anything yes,
Starting point is 01:29:35 you don't watch Carl you don't watch me doesn't watch surely it's not anything Iraq on Chrissy show never but he assumes everyone is watching his show. It's the classic Narcissus. Yes, it's classic. It's funny because back in the day you got one chance to watch or hear something and then it was gone. And so most people didn't watch it, but guys like Opie assumed that they did. Now there's Clippers who are putting out the best parts anyway. So yeah, I'm sure Eric has seen this. Yeah. It's only like in the last six or 12 months that everything's getting clipped
Starting point is 01:30:11 and put up on YouTube now. Oh, I know. We rock saw this because me and him text each other because I'm a human being. So, so your drunk uncle gives him 20 bucks and says, Sam and the boys gave Anthony a trouncing in the ratings. Who knew that a washed up racist woman biter wouldn't be as popular as Sam Roberts, okay?
Starting point is 01:30:33 This is a troll. Yes. It's so obvious, like he's trying to get Opie to talk about me, but also hate on Sam. This guy, he got two people in this this troll pose. Correct. For 20 bucks because there are there is no reading battle between you and Sam Roberts. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Media but it's not the same day part. It's not the same
Starting point is 01:30:55 anything. The shit he suggests here about Sam is fucking a trojan. You've seen this already. Oh, I've seen it all. I don't see I'm not the guy that says I don't watch. Like I say, I always say, I watch everything. I watch you guys. I watch Opie. I watch Scorch, Shulie, Kevin, John, Kevin Brennan, all of them. I, what else am I doing with my day? Having crazy times like Opie thinks the one person, none of us are watching is chad
Starting point is 01:31:25 zumach i'm the same way i try to be a dude on everything i can't watch a second of chad show it's so bad i've tried i've actually tried and i start watching and i'm just like it's not even like oh it's so bad or fucking him fucking i hate him or anything right it's just boring as fuck it's just nothing it's just nothing not even funny boring like opi or or anything. It's just boring as fuck. It's just nothing. It's just nothing. Not even funny boring like OP or anything. You're watching a guy twiddle his thumbs as he hits buttons on his completely out of context. It's crazy. So yeah, he goes pretty hard at Sam here. Yeah, no one's talking about Sam. I mean, he got exactly what
Starting point is 01:32:03 he wanted. He suffered through Jim Dornan because he never liked him. You're talking about him right now. Sorry. No one's talking about Sam. So back to Sam. Right, right, right. Yeah, you are. This is the easy pass to my own career at Sirius. He didn't realize it was going to last so long with Jimmy. He was hopeful. It's amazing what he knows about Sam Roberts and what Sam has been thinking about his career, even though he hasn't worked with Sam in over 10 years.
Starting point is 01:32:27 But he knows that Sam wanted to get that morning show, but then he had to wait out Jim Norton in order to get the show without Jim on there because they don't like each other. It's got it all figured out. He's projecting again. This is Opie after I got fired. And he's like, you know, Opie thought, Oh, this is opi after I got fired and he's like, you know opi thought oh this is great now finally my chance to show my chops my radio chops and how awesome I am without this fucking Anthony guy and he failed miserably so he's trying to project like obviously Sam and Jimmy didn't get along and Sam was just sitting going haha oh I can't wait till that Anthony guy. Oh, I mean,
Starting point is 01:33:08 Jimmy is gone so I could show how awesome I am. This is psychotic. This is to think that you know what Sam was thinking and the process he went through and you're right. It's all projection. This is all the story of all is what he's saying right here and it didn't work out for him. It didn't work out for Sam, which right very funny But just to be able to think that you know people's motivations And and he didn't think that Jim was gonna be there on that long, but you know he still had to wait it out It's like how do you know okay? Let's say that
Starting point is 01:33:36 He knows Sam didn't like Jim back when they all work together How does he know that when it became the Jim and Sam show that they didn't get along famously? And that some yeah, like they didn't like each other. Right. Yeah, it would have maybe they patched things up. They go hey like like adults like like human beings. They sat down and said hey, this is us. Now we got a show if we did have any differences. Let's put them aside. I could absolutely see them doing that if there even was a problem, which I don't believe there was. Maybe they're not, they're not of the same mindset. I think it was an awkward fit together for them. I think all of us together, Opie, Anthony, Jimmy, Sam, Erock, Travis, I think it made for a great combination. And and Sam and
Starting point is 01:34:25 Jimmy are very different people. And I don't think it worked as well as it could have with two other people, let's say. But to say they didn't like each other. I didn't see that. But this is him soothing himself. He's telling the story where they hated each other. Have all over. They've been suffering through this morning show ever since I left. But that would be quick. He had to suffer with Jim Norton.
Starting point is 01:34:51 Because look, I hung out with Sam Roberts. He's been in this house. He went on vacation with us on my dime. Never put a dick. Please. What a dick to say. What an asshole. On my dime. And I gave a dick to say on my dime. And I gave him a hug. Just like generous people don't fucking keep score
Starting point is 01:35:11 of shit like that. Oh, paid for a thing. And then he became Judas. And then he is stuttering john. Yeah, He's doing the stuttering John thing. John loves talking about how he like just spent and, and paid for everything when he talks about going out with people turned on me, you know, that's the story of John. Yes. It's it. They are fucking mirror images of each other. It's amazing. Uh, he made a pact with Jim Norton. I knew those guys were gonna
Starting point is 01:35:49 stab me in the back. I don't know if I've ever told this story. So, alright, I I don't believe I've heard this story he's about to tell. I thought I was gonna hear something I've heard before but we all know the story of this that OP went on vacation for a month right before the contract negotiations and he wasn't even in the building and they're like, all right, do you guys want to take over the mortgage? Sure. He played a hand with no fucking cards.
Starting point is 01:36:12 He just had no cards and he goes, yeah, well fuck you. Watch what I do. I'm going to leave for the entire summer. I legitimately have vacation time. I'm going to take it all at once and you won't see me again for three fucking months." And he just expected Sirius to go, oh boy, oh what day is it? Is Opie back yet? Jesus. No, they said, all right, Jim, Sam, step up, you got the helm.
Starting point is 01:36:37 And this is them stabbing Opie in the back. Right, it's his own doing. He's got no sense of self-realization, yet he knows what everyone else was thinking. But he's completely unable to assess himself and what he's doing. The idea that he would be responsible for his own behavior, that someone would have a conversation with him
Starting point is 01:37:02 and decide based on that conversation that they don't like him is not an option. It will never occur to him. So just like John, anyone that doesn't like him is part of a massive conspiracy theory by every, by big racism that's there to keep him down and keep everything floating. It's incredible. He wouldn't even think about it. We were really close with Sam and his wife. And my wife and Sam's wife were very close, very close. And one day just minding my own business and my, uh,
Starting point is 01:37:38 my apartment in New York city, 500 feet above the streets of New York city. He has to throw in that brag, which completely unnecessary to the story, which I pay for my dime. Yep. And Calabasas, my mansion, $2 million. Can't afford off street parking, but it is a really nice view you have there, L.P. Greg Hughes, I am a mansion and a yacht. Sam's wife would come by and cry about all sorts of things. Things she thought was going on.
Starting point is 01:38:14 The dirt I got. Trust me, I hold back. Again, this is OP's, his MO, he always goes to this car, he's just like, I know shit that if I told you guys, it would ruin this guy. Just fucking tell us or keep it to yourself. Do one or the other. This is a betrayal right here. Regardless of how you feel about Sam and again, stabbed me in the back. Yeah, you took three months off. They needed to do a show. They needed to put a show in there. They couldn't find the best of opi. It doesn't exist Breathing people so
Starting point is 01:38:51 If this is even true, which again, I don't believe anything this fucker says now He might even believe this happened, but whatever There's a confidence there between friends, his wife and Sam's wife, and I know they were very good close friends. And she confides in Opie's wife about something, and Opie just puts it out here like this, and alluding to what? A cheating thing.
Starting point is 01:39:19 That's what he's alluding to. And what a scumbag fucking move this is. But she would cry because of some of the things that she thought was going on. What wrestling? Yeah, what is it? airline? She didn't know John Cena was gonna do a fucking face turn and that guy is she's right about that. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:39:44 any of it have to do with you, OP? What does any of this stuff we're even talking about have to do with me? That's what I'm wondering. Oh yeah, yeah. That somehow this makes him look good? We've gotten pretty far away from where we started, haven't we? Holy shit. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:39:56 I don't know. But one day, one day Sam's wife comes to our apartment and she comes in and she's in tears. She's in tears. She's crying and she's talking to my wife. And she's just trying to say how much she loves my wife and appreciates the friendship. And then there's so much crying going on around Greg. It is a dull lot of crying. I can't tell you three stories of I've had I can remember people crying around me. It's weird, right?
Starting point is 01:40:32 Yeah, and are you hugging other men when they're crying? Look, I like to think I'm a pretty open-minded guy and I have a you know confidence in my own masculinity, but hugging a crying man, maybe in a workbook. Not at work, you know? Not at work, yes, at work. He's also someone who doesn't like to reveal much about his personal life. He doesn't, like I don't know much about his kids.
Starting point is 01:40:59 I don't know much about his wife he chooses to keep them, but anyone else's wife or girlfriend who's crying or having personal marital issues, well now we can talk about it on air and use it to define them and make fun of them. That's all fair game. I don't know your fucking dog's name, but we can talk about people's wives crying over infidelity late at night at your house. What does that have to do with why you can't do radio? Perfect, Adam. Yes. That's what the fuck last and maybe a half hour.
Starting point is 01:41:28 And then she leaves. She leaves. Never to be seen again. The killer stabbed me in the back with Jim Norton. And she was saying goodbye. He knew she's in a green with it. Yeah. He says he knows all the motivation. He knew. Yeah. Again, he knows all the motivation. He understands what's going on in the mind of other people. The wife comes over and cries to Opie's wife because she knows that Sam is going to stab him in the back and the friendship is over. So Sam, at one point must've gotten his wife there and gone, uh, honey,
Starting point is 01:42:07 I'm going to stab Opie in the back here. So Shakespeare play, make your peace with his wife because it's over after this happens. Uh, today, uh, after the, uh, baptism, I take care of all family business. It's it's retarded. He's how does he know this? He plays fantasies out in his head, and they become gospel. So that story got two things taken care of one it proves that Sam was conspiring against Opie in the background and even his
Starting point is 01:42:43 wife didn't even want him to do it. But Sam is so powerful. He still was able to destroy the friendship that his wife had with Opie's wife. And also to say that like, Oh, Sam was cheating on his wife. And maybe if I plant that seed, I can cause some strifer Sam current day. Right. I assume they're still married Sam and his wife. Oh yeah. Everything. Yeah. So great great great. Oh be good really good stuff to fucking bring up your true pale This is what they do when comedy is not an option Don't have jokes
Starting point is 01:43:17 their impulsivity and their lack of Self-control is their talent because that you know, so many moments in the past where they did the impulsive thing now, you know, he's just, he's got nothing to offer. And just like John, they'll go to try to ruin your life. Like John tried to get, yeah, Anthony's gig canceled at WAPC. We talked about that. He's going after Sam. But meanwhile, when we go on a show and we go, Opie, you know, you got to do a better job with how you're centering yourself and where you're going to get the camera. He's a work in progress, Carl.
Starting point is 01:43:51 You're so judgmental. We're trashy. It's like, I don't have a satire and parody, so I'm just going to go to libel and slander. Yeah, that's just as good. That's perfect. He's looking at the homeless guy. He sees the cake. He knows there's like a political cartoon in here somewhere about class and hunger and I'll just smash the cake. That's the joke. I'll just smash it. I'm outrageous. Yes. Something
Starting point is 01:44:16 else might've been a funnier move. All right. Here's how, Opie doesn't even understand his own business. He's just there. I mean, he's just there. You know, Sirius XM survives because of Howard Stern. So he's saying that Sam Roberts, you know, he just signed a contract. He's the host of the morning show and Opie saying he doesn't matter to Sirius. It survives because of a little bit of Ron Bennington. It survives a little bit because of Andy. It survives a little bit because of Andy. It survives a little bit
Starting point is 01:44:45 because of Mike, no, not Mike, just a mad dog. Maybe throw a little bonfire in there. That's it. He's just rotting in a seat. Nothing impressive there. What's your evidence for this? There's no ratings for this thing. So we have no idea. All I know, going off of Sirius XM's most recent meeting they had with the stock owners of their stock, is that they're really focused on podcasts. Call Her Daddy and SmartList is what they talked about nonstop throughout that call. You didn't mention those. Yeah. And Opie has no clue. He thinks it's still Ron Bennington and
Starting point is 01:45:24 Andy Cohen. Cousin Brucey. It's like you have no idea what you're talking about right now. Grease man. Jay over there is really funny. They're dead. They're not even paying attention to Howard anymore. Dead, Opie. They're not even paying attention to what Howard's doing. They don't even give a shit anymore. No one cares anymore what Howard's doing really. I mean, you know, he didn't get brought up one time. He didn't discount anything as just no big deal. Needs nothing. Sam's doing that. He's rotting in the seat. No big deal. I'm not impressed.
Starting point is 01:45:55 What the fuck are you doing where you can judge what is impressive or not in, in other people's lives? Sam is employed by SiriusXM. He does the morning show. He gets paid a salary. What the fuck are you doing to be able to sit there and not be impressed by that? Or, you know, again, I'll bring it back to me. Coming back to broadcast radio at WABC. Yeah, not impressive. Call me when and then some other thing. What are you doing, fucko? You're sitting there at some ungodly hour of the morning trying to talk quiet because your wife and kids
Starting point is 01:46:39 don't know that their mental patient husband and father don't know what he's doing out there and and judging everyone that's more successful and more driven and doing a lot more than you are. And can you imagine a world where OPI gets hired by AM radio and he's like all right I got a small little thing not a big deal we're not right right about it I am returning to terrestrial radio, but I'm not syndicated yet. Okay, we got syndicated, but we're just taking it slow I'm not really he would be Over you kidding me downplay it and play it cool and talk about how it's not really a big deal anymore because who listens Yeah, I just got a car. They don't even have it in it. So this isn't a big deal guys
Starting point is 01:47:23 This isn't that'd be his take on it That would be his take it's all different if it's him, right? Obviously you guys have not seen gabhart's basement Lights there so All right, let's get back to let's get back to Iraq. We got to get back to bashing Iraq again I didn't know the the show was called open. He brings the water behind open. But is that where Iraq shows in Iraq. But I guess I got to acknowledge that. Do I have cotton candy here today? No, let's not say a few to Iraq. We got it. We got to put our kid gloves on.
Starting point is 01:48:00 We got to be very, very nice to Iraq so I could get my life's work back. Drink and I know this is this is now his thing where he's acting like Iraq's being unreasonable. So we can't say F you to Iraq no no no. What was that character what movie was that and believe it or not the character's name was Anthony where they didn't want to piss off Anthony. Twilight sent up his social. We have to do with the Iraq Billy money. Maybe my life's work. I can get back. So maybe it's in my family where my kids can enjoy it. Something I don't know. So now it's about his kid always trying everything. Come on down the legacy. They'd be his kids if they have any
Starting point is 01:48:52 sense would listen and go. So this Anthony and Jimmy, these two guys, let me tell you, no p episodes on YouTube. So that's a football bad. Yeah, what the fuck? You're not fucking Peter Jennings. This isn't something you want to show your kids. Won't somebody please think of the children? Tell us about Wednesdays, Dad. I bequeath to my children, all of my life's work, the tapes of
Starting point is 01:49:30 no kid wants to hear their dad making fucking ass tits and pussy jokes. Hey, dad, I heard Quinn Tarantino invited you over for movie night. Did you ever take him up on that? Ah, we don't talk about that, son. I'd prefer not to. Well, you did barge in on Barry Williams for dinner Even what's happening here is just so embarrassing. He really sounds like Somebody who just got dumped who is not processing what was said so he has to just repeating it over and over he keeps saying not human. All I got. Oh, so I'm ugly and you're leaving me.
Starting point is 01:50:06 OK. All right. So I'm ugly. Oh, my penis is too small. It doesn't work very well. It's going to sink in eventually. That's the fucked up thing too, Adam. He's taking the bitch side of being broken up with.
Starting point is 01:50:18 This is the girl's reaction when a couple breaks up. You don't talk about things like, guys don't talk like this. They don't betray confidences. They don't shit on each other just to make yourself look better. He's a terrible man. He's not good at being a man. And what's so interesting is that, like, Anthony and I,
Starting point is 01:50:43 we grew up in the same place. My parents are from the Bronx. They were teachers in Queens. They moved to Long Island. We both started young. We both forced our way under the Howard Stern show by sheer will. We both have gone on and had careers in this business
Starting point is 01:51:00 and our ideology, our way of looking at things ended up so different, so different. But there are things we can agree on without even talking. And it's that Opie's a piece of shit. And that Stuttering John is a terrible person. And it is happening out there on Dabbler's Anonymous, on all of these subreddits where people from all over the world with different beliefs
Starting point is 01:51:23 can agree that not only are these people pieces of shit but that guys like John they're using these Values in these symbols as pawns in their stupid little war that they're losing and they were too Long Island guys from middle-class families. It's it's, again, it's so weird that you could come from the same background. I guess it's the nature nurture thing. You know, I'll obviously had some problems during his youth and over the course of the years with mental illness in his family. I'm not even going to go as far as he went with Sam, as far as
Starting point is 01:52:04 smearing somebody. But it just is weird that you could all have the same common background and turn out so differently. And still somehow, politics shift and change, and they're always evolving. But what you think of as a human being, what you think of as a person, like that we just instinctually can tell from think of as a person, like that, we just instinctually can tell
Starting point is 01:52:26 from all of these different people, everyone we've seen today and all the ones we continue to see on WATP, that there's a quality they share that brings so many different people together in the, we don't like that, and that is actual racism. That is actually people. They're an anomaly. Yeah. They are an anomaly. And we're all coming together and hack a media like minded people
Starting point is 01:52:48 go to hack a media.com promo code. W ATP hang out with us in Vegas. What can't marketers do now? Oh, that's how you see me in marketing. Now hopefully takes a shot at us, which I'm like, Whoa, yeah, I love how other podcasts dislike you, but you're still the prime focus of their content goes to show you no hope, no hope. Peace, precious. I like that. It's another trial. You know, the deal is I think it's a curve. He's even creating taglines for open. It's hilarious. No hope,
Starting point is 01:53:23 no hope. They're fucking trolls. Even if they say good things, it's just so he reads them and can then start rolling on something. Yup. It works every time too. Works every time. This guy's so pretty that anyone could live stream and podcast now cause there's a lot of crap out there. And if you're not putting yourself in front of a camera and trying to just talk about shit going on in your life,
Starting point is 01:53:49 shit going on in the world, hopefully trying to be funny, get a few laughs out there, if you're not capable or brave enough to do that, then what do you rely on? You rely on just making fun of people. Even during Open Anthony when we did Jacktober, we knew that it was a thing that you did from just time to time. You didn't focus your whole show on just making fun of other shows.
Starting point is 01:54:11 It's stupid after a while. Yeah, it really is dumb. By the way, this is our 10th year. Hope he's got it all figured out. I should be coming out here and talking about what happened to my day. All right. I told that I thought about my neighbors. So I was doing that for a minute. I don't know if that helped. And he can't distinguish the difference between radio in the late 90s, early 2000s and podcasting of 2025.
Starting point is 01:54:37 You can do this format. You can do a form because there's so many fucking podcasts out there. We were just doing radio shows. How many can you get? Yeah, we do it once a year, John Tauber, because if you do, you'd run out of fucking shit. Quite frankly, there are plenty of bad radio shows, but not that many podcasts. Holy shit. It's unlimited. So this guy again is, is, is old boomer fucking attitude and, and lack of knowledge about what's going on in 2025.
Starting point is 01:55:09 And he acts like SiriusXM is being held up by Ron Beddington's shoulders. Right. Cheers. He acts like this was all planned out. They're like, okay, we can make fun of radio stations, but it can't go more than 22% of the airtime. We also have to talk about hoarders from the night before. That's got to be at least 12% of it. It's like, I'm sorry, I'm not getting the percentages
Starting point is 01:55:32 right, Opie, because he immediately breaks his own rule here. Beat the crap out of other shows day after day. I know I don't want to do that. And I don't think it's impressive at all. Sam and the boys pull more numbers than Kumia on the radio. That's a fact. Jack, Kumia better bring his best DeLorean talk next week. It was a bloodbath and Sam was on reruns. Imagine what happens when Sam is live. You're obsessed with Sam Roberts?
Starting point is 01:55:59 Look, man, knowing all the players, you're drunk, uncle. It looks like you're drunk uncle. It looks like you're a big supporter of Sam Roberts. Oh my God, can you imagine there's a supporter of Sam Roberts out there? And here I am now, trashing people. This super chat came at the worst time. Because I'm gonna lead right into what I said that we shouldn't be doing.
Starting point is 01:56:23 But like I said, if you do it from time to time, a little here, a little there, it's fine. That's more than fine. I love when Opie starts making up rules about how show formats can be. Yeah, here's, I'll fill you in on this super chat here. First of all, Sam does mornings on satellite radio. There are no ratings. Correct. There are no ratings. I've done two shows so far on W ABC on Sunday night.
Starting point is 01:56:53 It isn't even close to a competing show. So him talking about ratings here is hilarious because again, this is a troll. That's a fact. Jack is a John line which now Kevin Brennan is is using. So, he obviously is is a fan of goofing on John and if you're a fan of goofing on John, you are obviously a fan of goofing on Opie. They're the same type of asshole. So, another troll and he's trying to get Opie to **** on me and Sam in a way. I mean the guy obviously brilliant.
Starting point is 01:57:29 He's got a few bucks to throw around. But for Opie to think this guy is not a troll is retarded. The degree to which he won't take responsibility for anything happening in his life is so crazy that he won't take responsibility for his own show as it's happening. Like this super chat is something that happened to him as if he had no control over it. Yeah, yeah. There is something- I can reach over here and I gotta clean this up.
Starting point is 01:58:01 This is all like show prep from so many days and shows. I, I work at doing this as you do Carl, you know, we, we, we do, I see Shuli, he, they work, they cut video, you cut video, you go on to, you have an idea of what the show's going to be before you, you hit on. an idea of what the show's gonna be before you hit on. And this fucking guy won't even give his viewers that courtesy
Starting point is 01:58:37 of actually saying, hey, people are gonna send me money. I want them to send me money. Let me actually work, even the minimal, to give them, uh, to give them something that might be entertaining. He won't even go that far. Digital panhandle. How insulting is this? This guy is telling us our format is wrong from the laziest podcaster lazy. And Anthony, you've been talking about this lately and it's great cause it
Starting point is 01:59:03 pisses off Kevin Brennan because it really is just e-bagging and Opie coming on here, just waiting for super chats to come in. And there is some kind of dopamine rush or something with these colors. Cause I see it happen to Kevin. I see it happen to Opie. I see an orange or red and they get real excited. They leave it up on the screen for a long time. An adrenaline rush like when he used to hear, and here's Opie and Anthony.
Starting point is 01:59:27 And we go out on stage. This is his new adrenaline rush. Is that orange? I know what that is. You have an monopoly board. Oh, I have St. James Place. OK. That's it.
Starting point is 01:59:39 Oh, Boardwalk. That's the blue one. Right. And the problem with that color-quoted emotional response is that they feel the same way when they see other people get those colors the opposite feeling happens You have stomach drops. That's my angry Color what the fuck right right thought you were my drunk uncle Everybody's drunk. Let's get back to Sam Roberts. We got more Sam Roberts back to go here So you confused cuz you're like wait, oh, but you don't like it. That was a chance to take a shot at him
Starting point is 02:00:08 Yeah, but the reality is that? Anthony's definitely talking to more people than Sam Roberts Sam's dead in the water at serious exam. Trust me. There's there's nothing going on there. He just renewed his contract What are they talking about? I don't listen to Sam, but I've talked to a number of people who told me that they're really hitting their stride now. Like they got the crew that should be together and they're doing a fantastic job. Right, right. I imagine they are doing a great job. Sam's been doing radio for decades and he's got a good crew. So I would imagine they're doing fine. What is this dead in the
Starting point is 02:00:42 water? Why do they recite them? I'm going gonna call I gotta call Opie right now because he almost gave me a compliment. Hold on. Show back to you. Thanks for being a human being. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Appreciate you. And again, why? Why would he want all of these shows to fail? They're all tied to him. Wouldn't you want everything tied to you to be a success? Isn't that like the greatest thing that would ever happen to you, Opie? The fact that you're cutting all these strings before they can even carry you up is so scary. I think if you have something going on in your life,
Starting point is 02:01:17 you're more apt to look at other people's success and go, oh, good for him. Hey, that's good. It's kind of a offshoot, a clone, alien clone of what we did. And but if you have nothing going on in your life, and you're talking to 2030 people on your whatever this is, you're going to be bitter about anyone else's success. And that's what he's done. I love the fact that Sam's doing a show he's on WWE and shit like that because I don't have any qualms about what the fuck I'm doing and what I've done over the course
Starting point is 02:01:51 of the past 11 years since I was fired and what I'm doing now like I'm psyched. I'm energized. I'm excited for it Imagine sitting here at your beach house in the Hamptons and you have nothing going on except what you had at some point. It's so obvious that he's bitter and jealous because you could plug in what Sam's doing or obviously Anthony on WABC. He's talked about that quite a bit. Jim Norton and his new podcast that he's doing. And OP's going on and down there just be like, oh, these people are watching it. I don't get it. Like you don't, you don't get it. You obviously don't get it. You don't understand why people like Jim. Why that show is catching
Starting point is 02:02:34 on. Yeah. I just streamed last night. I did, I just, yeah, I saw a few drinks out in Greenville. I come back. I'm like, yeah, let me fire this up I haven't done a live stream in quite some time and get a couple of thousand people watching I wake up and there's 30 20 some odd thousand views. Yep, and shit. It's like he fucking hates that Oh, yeah hates that we get we have an audience because we give the audience something Yep, we're actually working at it we have an audience because we give the audience something. We're actually working at it. He also hates comedy and he hates radio. Why would you, you're known for bringing comics up, right?
Starting point is 02:03:15 You launched so many legendary comics. Why would you not start discovering younger comics? That might be something people trust you for. Why don't you have any interest? Stuttering John said, not that long ago, somebody asked him about what he thought of Seinfeld and Stuttering John was like, I don't watch other comedians. I don't watch their specials. I don't watch comedy.
Starting point is 02:03:35 I don't want to be influenced. That was the point. Yes, I heard that. Fucking hilarious. And it's not even just to say that and to practice it but to believe this is a smart saying to believe you're like Leonardo DiCaprio taking on some role. You're like, I don't want to see the other people do this role I need to do my take on it Daniel Day-Lewis stinging character He's not interested. Neither of them are interested in comedy or radio if they would they would know right?
Starting point is 02:04:03 He's not even paying attention Like I said to serious like some he has no idea what their strategy is or what they're doing now But he'll talk about as if he's an authority on it. Yes, and he should be he worked there a long time But it is a channel named after him, but Alright, so apparently you know people want Opie to come on their shows and they reach out and they make them offers and Opie Oh, he says no another one like saying let's bury the hatchet come on my show I'll I'll send you a car and I'm like how delusional are these pretty I've never met yeah so when he's talking through this I thought at first you start about Lewis J Gomez maybe talking about
Starting point is 02:04:39 sending a car bury the hatchet say no it was crazy crazy yeah it was Christy that I there is a reveal here but I just thought for sure because he's trying to Barry the Hatchet. Yeah, it was Chrissy. Yeah, it was Chrissy. There is a reveal here, but I just thought for sure, because he's trying to be coded with this. What? Never mind. That worked under Anthony. So because you worked under Anthony, you got to take shots at me.
Starting point is 02:05:00 That's what I thought was Lewis, because I know he worked for you for a little while. And Lewis has never talked shit about Opie. But Opie wouldn't tell you that. Opie would say that Lewis is definitely right. I've never used this phrase worked under, like why would you say he's just trying to make everything sound gross? He's worked with you work for you work. Yes, under he's got to make it sound creepy. Yes. Also, everyone who goes to work for Compound gets their marching orders on the first day. There's a little packet they give you about conduct, personal conduct.
Starting point is 02:05:32 It's like, always be bashing, Opie. Yep, yep, got the hat. Yeah, yeah, my HR department makes sure they get the pamphlet. It just goes with the lay of the land. I think that's when Erock started pumping up his hate towards me. Sorry, sorry, Erock, trying to become a human being so I can get my life's work back someday. I apologize, Erock.
Starting point is 02:05:59 I didn't mean that. It's a good bit, open. Keep doing it. Keep that one up. It's working for you. Yeah, but you don't like saying, keep that one up. It's working for you. Yeah. It really makes you look more human. So this is where it's revealed that it was a crazy person. Um, you know, just take shots at me. Never met the person at all. Uh, don't know the first thing about her. Um, and I was just trying to do my thing and all of
Starting point is 02:06:21 a sudden she just, just like a, so I took my dumb shot, right. And then, uh, because my dumb shot was really, really good. That was the one where I said you're boring AF. He literally got invited to be on a show. She said she'd send a car. And he had a tweet out in public that Chrissy show is boring AF. And then he went on to show to admit he never watched it and open that's like he's the victim on this. Why can't he say as? Why wouldn't you say you're boring as F? I don't get that but all right. He was just he was just saying all these people
Starting point is 02:07:02 taking shots at me they're taking shots at me. They're taking shots at me. So I took my little shot and everyone freaked out. Yeah, that's what you're doing right now. You never met Jay Leno before you did the Jay Leno show and you weren't like, why I've never met Jay? You just did the show because you have something to promote. If you have something to say or something you believe in or even like or something you have something to say, or something you believe in, or even like, or something you're
Starting point is 02:07:26 raising money for, you have a motivation to go do someone's show. The fact that you're like, who the fuck are you? Have you looked at your numbers? Have you looked at hers? Yeah, especially especially if you're not getting numbers, like he's not getting anyone watching him. You think he would jump on the opportunity to do anyone's show that's getting better numbers than him which is pretty much everyone's what I do and Chrissy Mayer it would kind of be a if you thought you could endear yourself with the audience by going through Chrissy you know he doesn't want to do my show obviously
Starting point is 02:08:01 but that's kind of a peripheral thing where it's the same people some of them that he could actually talk say something to Chrissy and some of the viewers might go wow that was pretty cool or open comes on the show that alone would kind of be cool and then if he talks and he's a little humble and he's a little bit personable maybe some people would go you know what maybe I watch a show and he's a little bit personable. Maybe some people would go, you know what, maybe I'll watch his show, but he's incapable of this because he's not human. Like Erock said, he doesn't believe in himself. And that was the thing with you taking the WABC job, what pissed
Starting point is 02:08:40 him off the most about it is how humble your approach was to that. Drew Lane was messaging me. He's like, it's so impressive how well Anthony's doing because he's looking at like these podcast charts and people are listening to your radio show as a podcast. It's in the top one 50. It's crazy how many people are listening. It's crazy. Yeah. People are listening to the show. It's not even really supposed to be a podcast. It's a radio show. Right. It's up on YouTube. I was listening to the most recent episode yesterday people are sharing it everywhere It's getting all these views and all these listens and Opie knows that he'll fail
Starting point is 02:09:12 He knows deep down if he were to put himself out there. It wouldn't work if he were to go on Chrissy show He would embarrass himself. He knows we have to make excuses and Act like everyone's against him and you know, it's a no-win situation Get out there and promote yourself retard. Yeah, tell you grow my boss yesterday He texted me and told me that I should take the gloves off. Oh, he goes. Yeah, that's the boss I love it because I've been and and you know, you get it's my first foray back radio in years, decades. And I've been kind of holding back a little bit. I don't want to be a shock jock obviously, but I've kind of pulled back even more.
Starting point is 02:09:55 And with some of the complaints I've gotten from the Tel Aviv times and stuff, you know, being a Missy B's boyfriend doesn't fucking help. stuff. You know, yeah, being a Missy B's boyfriend doesn't fucking help. This guy's anti-semitic. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. That's me. That's the other one compared to this but it's funny. He called me up and he's like, I just want to let you know, like, don't hold back. He goes, he goes, I just want you to know, you don't have to hold back.
Starting point is 02:10:25 He goes, take the gloves off, man. Be you. I'm like, oh, that's fucking, they'll be sorry about it. Can you put the gloves back on, please? That's why Andy's saying this right now. So when he gets in trouble in the mob, he's like, that's what I was told. I want everyone to at least know that's what happened. Because my dumb shot was really, really good.
Starting point is 02:10:47 That was the one where I said you're boring AF. She never got. He's bragging about a tweet. I'm rubber, your glue. I had a great one. Just me on the regular, but I'm like, I, I, I didn't even know you. I didn't do anything to you. You felt like that attack me because you worked under Anthony. Again, he knows the motivation. He understands everything that's going on. Always. These are comics. You dummy.
Starting point is 02:11:20 And yeah, they'll roast people. There's difference between, do you think Chrissy Mayer actually has animosity toward Opie and wants to destroy him or make him personally feel bad or being tied to me in a business-wise as far as combat or friendship, she has opportunities to make jokes about a guy that is pretty worthy of jokes. But he sees it as a
Starting point is 02:11:46 personal attack. He always did. When all the comics were on, Voss and DePaulo and Patrice, and they're all around goofing on each other. Every insult that he got, he saw as a personal affront to him instead of it's guys busting balls. It's what we do. Yeah. Because he knows deep down that he deserves this. You know, I think that's what it comes down to. Like if you told me about the shit to my face that I felt bad about myself for, it's going to reinforce my feelings about myself.
Starting point is 02:12:20 But if I'm confident in what I do and you come on and you go, Carl, no one watches your podcast. You stink. I'm like, okay. So it's just noise. Correct. You can be confident about the shirt you put on, you know, you'll put that shirt on or your mommy picking out. Hey, hey, rich. Enough about my shirt. The shirt is getting you flustered. But this is also going back to like Chad Zumach thinking Chad has said many times that we got a memo one day to go after him like Chrissy and Frank told me and
Starting point is 02:12:53 Anthony and like we got all these people like we had this meeting and we're just like okay who are our enemies today they're like Chad's doing okay write that down Chad's okay yes that's what we're gonna do now. I didn't put memos out for real shit that needed to be done around. I don't communicate anything to anyone. Curl show is scripted. It's always strange to find a lack of sense of humor about yourself in a comedian. Because it really doesn't happen. The nature of being a comedian is that you find everything funny.
Starting point is 02:13:24 And you'll always appreciate going for the job even when it fails. I remember early on in W ATP, there was somebody that would call in and make fun of Carl like, Oh, are you having a chauffeur Steve on next and then a blender bill after you go to band practice and you found it so funny. There was nothing funnier to you than somebody just calling out whatever was happening. It's genuine. I don't think a sense of humor about yourself is something you can develop over time. You either have it or you
Starting point is 02:13:52 don't Chad zoom ocks the same way. He was talking about how he was making a list of all the lies that Carl tells about him and W ATP is playing and at some point Carl said now you know, Chad's a guy with no self-confidence Lie number two Chad doesn't have self-confidence They don't know what humor is they don't understand Oh, but you have all the facts everyone's lying They're all monsters. They're all misinformed and you won't take any opportunity to go and explain to everybody what the truth is You're not interested in that. No, it's what you said, Carl. He can't because he knows deep down.
Starting point is 02:14:26 It's all vague. He'll lose. Yep. Yep. It all has to be vague stuff. They just know. One more clip on here. So the question is asked, who is his favorite co-worker of all time was?
Starting point is 02:14:37 Wow. OK. How did I miss this? It's so stupid. He started talking about a caddy that he used to caddy with. I'm like, okay, that's not the point. You don't have to tell us about a guy you liked when you were 19. You know, it's a... He could have, Schule could have done an Uncle Rico about Opie too. He goes back so far about the
Starting point is 02:14:56 glory days and it's fucking terrible. They're dumb stories. Yeah, that's not what anyone's talking about. If someone asks you your favorite coer is it's something that we would know of. Someone who's been taught on the radio or has been on the radio personality, something Garrett, Garrett was fucking, we would hang out in the WNEW office after the show, smoke, drink, play video games. I had some, so much fun with Garrett there. See how easy that is. Everyone knows. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. So let's find out who his favorite co-worker is. This will piss off a lot of people, but it's the
Starting point is 02:15:31 truth. I like how he starts out. This is going to piss off a lot of people because everyone's just sitting there going, I hope I'm the favorite. I hope nothing's off limits. Everyone he's ever met or worked with is watching right now, so he's got to keep their feelings in mind. Here's the big reveal. It would be Carl Reuys. A guy whose name you still can't pronounce correctly. Carl Reuys. He's told you that a million times. He's still called Carl Reuys. Look, not to take away from Anthony and the chemistry we had I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we know that's not your favorite coworker. I don't want to take anything away from the monster. Yeah, what the fuck? Reinvented? Look, it's a wheel. What is it now? A wheel.
Starting point is 02:16:32 It's not reinvented. It's a roender now. Alright, so check this out. This is a great classic opi right here. When I reinvented myself after opi and Anthony ended, I'm sorry about this camera, man. Getting seasick. Gotta like get some more duct tape.
Starting point is 02:16:50 I guess people made fun of the fact that I duct taped my camera to the back of my neck. Really, this is what you do with your time, really? Yes! Yes! Opie, you're duct taping the camera, we're laughing at you for that. Why wouldn't we?
Starting point is 02:17:02 It's hilarious. Duct tape. Does he not see the juxtaposition between this view that he puts into his personal life and the duct tape with which he applies to fix his professional life? That's deep, man. Yeah. And remember when he was pointing out, he had to point out that he paid for the vacations they went out with Sam. He had to say my apartment in New York, which is 500 feet above New York City, like, he has to throw in these things to tell you how well he's
Starting point is 02:17:29 doing. But duct tape is what he's so bad at this. And he has such a lack of desire to do it that he actually truly believes this is a favor he's doing for us. Yes. Yeah. Like, and if we don't treat him right, he'll go away. I'm doing you a favor. Does this guy understand? Look, we made a lot of money during the ONA show and I know He had the same finance guy I had over the course of the years. We saved a lot of money It was invested in very safe investments and it was made purposefully through our agent and our finance guy So that when we got older, we didn't piss away everything we fucking made.
Starting point is 02:18:07 And thank you to those people. So I know OP has money for, I would even say three, $4,000, and that's high end. In 2025, you can get an unbelievable camera, microphones, lighting. Just make it look like you're trying. Don't try. Don't prep for the show or have guests or pay attention
Starting point is 02:18:34 to anything but the chat. Fuck that. But at least make it look like you're fucking trying. He still hasn't bought a broadcast microphone. Every other person I see who was in radio and now is podcasting has a broadcast microphone. Everyone. Every single person because you know that you need to sound great. He's so out of touch. That's a big part of it. Yeah. He's so out of touch and uninterested that he doesn't know everyone, like it's not Steven Spielberg anymore. You don't need a studio. You don't need, you know, WNEW. You can just buy this stuff and everyone knows this stuff is readily available.
Starting point is 02:19:13 They're advertising your podcast kit, you know, on Instagram. Just buy it. Like this is what the kids do before they even start their show is buy this stuff. And you actually, a grown man, are saying to other grown men, oh, you don't like my duct tape? Yeah, we're not impressed, Opie, while you're looking at that view. Put some fucking effort into something
Starting point is 02:19:36 and then maybe you can have a leg to stand on. This goes back to what Anthony said originally where Opie refuses to do a professional show because then he can be judged with other professional shows the Foodie boys have a multi camera shoots have professional microphones have nothing to say Yeah, no fucking thing to say and they're very popular right now when Anthony was saying how easily you could Stretch your dollar these yeah, I was thinking of those. Yeah, right everyone's good. We can do that's very attainable Everything it's fine. You could literally go to Best Buy and buy a professional podcast
Starting point is 02:20:12 Just here it is. Here's my podcast. We're doing the the dabble house next month and We were actually talking we were consulting with some people who have done content houses in the past to kind of understand how to do This and some of the advice we got was yeah, so you guys are going to go into Florida We were consulting with some people who have done content houses in the past to kind of understand how to do this and Some of the advice we got was yeah, so you guys are going to go into Florida Yeah, just buy the shit when you get there Just go ahead and make sure you're near Best Buy go in there just buy all this shit that you need It's like yeah, that's how we see this Broadcasting equipment store. Oh, I don't I don't have it's not the old days Yes, he's like he thinks it's not the old days.
Starting point is 02:20:47 Yes, he's like he thinks it's Steven Spielberg and we can't make a movie unless we have millions of dollars. You know, Opie, if you chose to go into Costco with your family instead of sitting in the car and broadcasting from your phone, you could have bought one of those kits at a real cheap price. And right, I would have appreciated that. He doesn't want to he doesn't want to look good. He doesn't want to sound good. Because then if I try, I'm going to be judged. Yep.
Starting point is 02:21:07 And he goes with them. Laziness is fear. If I never really tried. It can always be, I'm not even trying. Look. Look at me. I have a shitty camera with duct tape. I don't prep for anything.
Starting point is 02:21:18 So if you say I suck, yeah, of course I do. I'm doing that on purpose to suck. Because he's got, again, bringing back to the no confidence thing. Laziness is fear is a brilliant take. This is Stuttering John as well. He's the laziest person I've ever encountered in my life, but he's so fearful because he knows he's going to fail miserably. Yeah. That's interesting. All right. You guys got time for a game real quick.
Starting point is 02:21:43 Yes. Let's do this. We got Two minutes with Tom from the great Cardiff Electric It's time for everyone's favorite new new game show two minutes with Tom What do you say Adam Bush and Anthony Kumiya? Are you ready to find the bomb? Yes potato. Wait two minutes, with Tom. Baltimore is a really sadistic city it is.
Starting point is 02:22:13 This week at the inner harbor, they're holding a walk to support people with ALS. That's right, a lot of people are going to be walking to support a group of people who can't fucking walk. That was such a Bill Hicks right there. Bill Hicks. That is such a ripoff.
Starting point is 02:22:36 Not the joke, not the content. No, no. Just the demeanor and how we delivered this. More people who can't fucking walk. Did you get that people? You know, in dog day afternoon in dog day afternoon when Al Pacino is like holding all the people hostage in the bank, he's pacing in front like that. Just like a lion in a cage. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 02:23:05 to support a group of people who can't fucking walk. How sophisticated is that? It's like, hey everybody, let's show these guys how much fun it is to do something they can't do anymore. Yeah, we're going to show them how much fun it is walking when you don't have ALS. He told the same joke four times and actually got a laugh on the fourth time It's reiterating this audience is very generous. Honey if you laugh, he'll move on What did Tom say next? Here are your choices. Number one, the aborted fetus in a bucket challenge to raise money for Planned Parenthood. Okay.
Starting point is 02:24:08 B. The 12 tumors in a bucket challenge to raise awareness for cancer. Too funny. The garbage bucket challenge to raise money for the Republican Party for the loose stool in a bucket challenge to raise awareness for Crohn's disease and lastly the whiskey bucket challenge raise awareness for alcoholism Two minutes with all right. I think I know I'm going to give out a little clue here. I don't think Tom gets political in his standup. I don't think he wants to divide the audience by calling
Starting point is 02:24:49 out Republicans. Love to do it on the podcast, not in the standup. So I'm going to say next is off the table on this. I think it's number four because he loves potty humor. He loves poopy jokes, but there's another one I'm looking at. What do you think Anthony? What do you think is the answer here? Absolutely. I mean, it's another actual disease. Like it doesn't work with Republican. Not that I'm saying he knows jokes that work. But the humor thing is a little much. You don't want people with cancer in the audience might not like that. The planned parenthood thing, it's not really a disease. disease. whiskey alcoholism is a disease to some people. But the the Crohn's disease loose stool challenge shit coming out of a bucket on your head. It's got him all over it. What do you think, Adam?
Starting point is 02:25:37 I'm gonna go with lastly, I don't think he's above next. I think he would say that if he thought the audience was right. And it would get a pandering laugh. But I'll go with lastly, because it's just very wordy and hard to say. All right, producer Chris. Number one, the boarded fetus. All right, let's see. Interesting. your head, you feel shocked, your brain goes numb, you can't move your limbs, it's like actually getting ALS.
Starting point is 02:26:07 I want to start a loose stool and a bucket challenge. I'm going to bring you where it has to do with Crohn's disease. You know what it took me up with? You know what it took me up a little? Diarrhea. If he said diarrhea, but Luth Stuhl is like, yeah, I want to keep it kind of classy up here. I won't say diarrhea. So Luth Stuhl was just, it's too worked out and calculated.
Starting point is 02:26:42 So that's why, yeah. And I was, Adam, I was going to go with, with five was my second choice. Okay. Producer Chris, you're just a big loser. Yeah. For those just listening, it is remarkable to watch Tom, he is prowling the stage like it's Madison Square Garden. His gaze is like looking up into the upper deck that's not there in this small club. I don't know why he's acting like that. He's also got this weird, I don't know why,
Starting point is 02:27:08 but I'm reminded of early Seinfeld delivery. Like, well, what is that about? He's definitely biting off a few different comics. There's this similar kind of vacant look behind the eyes. And when he leans in, when he actually does make eye contact with an audience member, it's very uncomfortable. You don't want him looking directly at you. It's like someone trying to remember a monologue and their eyes are just up all the time because
Starting point is 02:27:36 they're trying to think of the words. He's not present when he's talking. He's in this nervous state and he briefly comes out of it. Are they laughing? Okay. And then he goes back to it You just don't want it near you This episode has been brought to you by Hackamania.com. Go to Hackamania.com right now and use promo code
Starting point is 02:28:07 come to save 10% on your ticket. Come. You're soaking in it. That's cool. Sit Eugene, sit. Good dog. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun. Well there you have it.
Starting point is 02:28:25 Anthony and I are both winners today and forever because Anthony is the host of the Anthony Kumia show on compound censored. Go to censored.tv or compound media is still a thing. Yes, it's still a thing. So yeah, sign up for that. You can watch the Anthony Kumia show Monday through Thursday, 4 30 to six. And then of course, everyone's talking about the W A B C show. You're doing the radio Sunday nights.
Starting point is 02:28:54 Yes, I got coming up Sunday tomorrow, actually, Steve Grillo, I'm gonna have Grillo on. I know a lot about the early Howard Stern days. I remember listening to Grillo on there. So not just your regular, you're like, what was Howard like? I know every fucking thing about what went on when Grillo was on that show. So it should be a fun guest to have this Sunday,
Starting point is 02:29:22 8 p.m. on WABC. Go to the App Store, 77 Wabc get the app you can listen wherever the fuck you are Yeah, thank you Like I said people are checking out the show and listen to like it's a podcast yeah, and it's it's nice you can zip through those commercials and Get right to the content. I wouldn't like to hear that on the sales meeting. I had to get up for at 9 a.m Yesterday, holy shit to the content. I wouldn't like to hear that on the sales meeting I had to get up for at 9 a.m. yesterday. Holy shit. It's like I got a real job. Yeah what the fuck is that all about? I fucking got myself a real goddamn job. I'm having Zoom meetings with salespeople. Oh they probably gave you your own email address. You probably have an ABC email address. Oh yeah I got that.
Starting point is 02:29:59 Now you have a new inbox to look at. And then production, engineering, the bosses. I'm just like, oh, I remember this. Yeah, yeah, awesome. You're making it seem way less desirable. I always wondered how much of an impact Jackie had on John in terms of his bitterness and his blaming the boss. Yeah, that's a good, you know, Jackie had his issue. And I always wondered whether Grillo would be as bitter if he didn't have John telling him constantly
Starting point is 02:30:28 that this is how it is and you're never gonna make, and these are the enemies. I wonder if John wasn't in his ear if he would have had a healthier attitude about it. Right, right. I'll ask him about this tomorrow, because, you know, 90s era Howard Stern show, how the fuck do you look at anyone and go, Oh, yeah, I wasn't getting paid
Starting point is 02:30:48 this soft in hindsight, I see. And you go, dude, every guy in the world wanted that job. Yep. Fuck you. I'll pay to be in that studio in the 90s during the Howard Stern show. And, you know, they have this kind of look back in bitterness at the lack of pay and I had to get his potato and all that. And look, it probably did suck if you're in it, but it seems like a real, really? Like really, you hate it?
Starting point is 02:31:22 It was the greatest job you could fucking have. So because you have a radio background, you'll understand the problem these guys all had, and it's stirring John especially, is when you're hired as an intern, people will always see you as a guy who's worthless. We pay you no money. I mean, John, that was true.
Starting point is 02:31:40 Correct, and I shouldn't say worthless. It's just like, you know, you put your value so low because they're paying you nothing to come and get school credits so what people do in radio but actually every industry is because they're seen as an intern I have to now take that experience and get a job somewhere else and then build my career and guys like Grillo and Grills I'm sure is a great guy and Stuttering John they thought they're just going to come up with this show and eventually become the host of it. That's how radio works. You don't go from intern to host or co host
Starting point is 02:32:12 of the show. You gotta bounce around. In the military or the police department, when you get a promotion where you're now brass, you have men under you, they put you in another fucking place. You're not with the same people that you were a private with. in another fucking place. You're not with the same people that you were a private with or you know shit like that. You now have authority and they'll never see you that way. So you do have to leave and go somewhere else where they don't know that you were this lowly piece of shit for so long. And also if you're talented, I've seen it happen many,
Starting point is 02:32:42 many times. I've seen the craft service person become a producer. I've seen the writer's intern becoming a writing assistant, become a writer, become a producer. If you're talented and you're capable, someone's going to need your hand. Someone's going to say, who should go with Howard to do this thing? That intern's really smart.
Starting point is 02:33:03 Tell them. And suddenly, you're not just an intern. But when you're like, the job's over, the five minutes after Howard's done, I'm out, then yeah, people are always going to look at you like you're an intern. Howard dedicated his book to Grillo. So it always sounds a little disingenuous. I have a theory on that, but go ahead.
Starting point is 02:33:21 That he did it not to pay him. He just did it because he didn't want to pay him? What's the theory? Yeah. So Grillo was an unpaid intern after he was no longer going to school, which is illegal. You can't employ someone who's not getting school credits and give them zero money. They did that for, I think, years.
Starting point is 02:33:36 Called slavery. It's frowned upon now these days. Right, right. So I think that was Howard being like, oh, shit, I'll throw him a bone here and give him something that I could print it out where they were dedicated to each and he just gave them what I did for you. That's a funny idea. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It does happen in the business where you're an intern for someone that is famous but treated you like shit, then you become successful and people go, hey, you used to be an intern for that legend.
Starting point is 02:34:08 How was it working with them? You don't say they were a piece of shit who never paid me. You go, I learned everything I learned from them. Exactly. And then they go, I taught him everything he knows. He was my buddy. And you build something together. You burn every bridge just as a rule and then wonder why
Starting point is 02:34:25 you're alone and broke. In turns, we treated like shit on the Opie and Anthony show. Have gone on to get executive positions. Exactly. Chris Olivera is like in charge of the CBS radio division and Al Dukes. Al Dukes is a big wig in the company. And these were guys we shit on because they were the shock jocks.
Starting point is 02:34:48 You shit on them. You shit on the interns. That was part of it. So there were very talented people and smart people that sometimes can go up through the ranks like that. But it's kind of rare. And you do have to maybe go somewhere else. Yeah, bounce around a little bit. Don't be like
Starting point is 02:35:05 cold screen over 15 years and then complain that you're not the host. I get no respect around here. You've been very generous with your time buddy. Thank you so much. I love it. I love it. And I wanted to meet Adam. I've watched your show, obviously Carl, and when Adam's on, a very insightful, funny guy I'm a fan. I'm a fucking fan Adam. All right. Thank you so much It was the moment where John was on your show and he said, you know What my problem is and you said the problem you have is piling up in front of you That is the moment that transcended politics and all these things and we all came together as one and people from all over the world are having the same feeling we had a common enemy
Starting point is 02:35:49 Yeah Thanks, man. What's doing? I appreciate it. I appreciate you Later. Thanks so much, man Adam we were going to talk about docu-labs who are what we're running on today. I really wanted to shit on him I thought it'd be so funny if I was intolerant of this Nickelodeon actor. Yeah, I just want to talk shit about him and yeah, but completely Was gonna be because these aren't credits. These aren't even credits. Yes. I worked in four years. Who is this kid? No, I can't I love the guy
Starting point is 02:36:19 That's why squeeze little cheeks you guys had Nickelodeon at the same time no no he was there before me, okay, I watching What he had to say about the dabble verse and then watching the dabble versus completely different Rorschach test reactions to what they saw He's gonna be so much fun on Wednesday. Okay. Let's talk about that on Wednesday because I have the clips I don't have Kevin Brunner might be able to track it down because I guess Kevin Brennan watched it and reacted to it He fell in love Kevin. It was trying to pay him like a stripper in advance. Okay. And I did watch salute your shorts. I assume that we're probably around the same age. You were probably in the salute your shorts age range, right? Adam? Yeah. I remember that with Hey dude. That was the other one. Yep. I remember that. I remember donkey lips when he was a big famous Nickelodeon kid and now Patrick Melton gives him grief and
Starting point is 02:37:10 Rightfully so from everything that I've seen but we'll save that you know what that was I didn't even try to do this I think we just did I'm becoming too good at this. That's the biggest complaint I got when we people write this show. This podcasters too good at this job. Making everyone else look bad. All right. No one's going along with me on that one.
Starting point is 02:37:37 All right. Well, in that case, let's get some internet news. We back with voicemails right after this Internet news with Jenny jiggles from YouTube D Matthews crows bless you for bringing scorch back into our lives. Yeah Christopher blue notes his truck has buzz lightyear colors tips true news explains the one-year anniversary Scorch goes by dog ears Ben with the inspirational, keep pursuing your dreams. Long after they've died. General Ocean Wolf is confused. Carl, what are you talking about? Never heard of this guy. Scorch is it? Sounds like a real up and comer to me. Looks like he's got it all together.
Starting point is 02:38:14 Can't wait to see where this guy ends up. Buck Satan 2 wonders. Opester, Stut Joe, KB, and Scorch? Would that be the lolcow Mount Rushmore? Jack Longbridge addresses Stuttering John's latest departure. FINAL SHOW? This guy has had more final shows than the stones! Vlad the Dragon gets Misty. Godspeed, John. See you in a month or so. Plague Rattopines. This is the best version of John when he doesn't acknowledge the Dabbleverse and actually tries
Starting point is 02:38:38 to put on a good show. We all joyously get to watch a spectacular failure, just like when Homer tried to act professional at the power plant to impress Frank Grimes. The professionalism! Mitchell Hollingsworth. John's guess Ava passes for a lady more than John passes for a human. And from Dabler's anonymous waist volume reports, Ava turned! Another swing and a miss for the dummy.
Starting point is 02:38:57 Saves the best for last with another heel turn. Opie is a hack, Riffs. Enjoy your transgender prison! Long Iron Six points out, maybe, just maybe, if he showed her the tiniest sign of respect and learned her name, it might have gone different. Fix it 403. Turns out people don't like being used as a prop. Michael Popok adds, You couldn't write this script.
Starting point is 02:39:16 Everybody that associates with the dumbass clowns him in the end. He's a retard that's not smart enough to learn to stop interviewing people or going on shows. Stupid asshole. Walk hand spitballs. Now people or going on shows. Stupid asshole. Walk hands, spit balls. Now stick with me on this. The Ava and Clay Show. I think it has some serious potential. Hot by 8686 is dubious.
Starting point is 02:39:33 I'd rather listen to the sirens in Clay's neighborhood than hear him speak. Ava is a good guest though. The Fool Who Follows 440 offers. Ava and Tukey would go together like PB&J. Fudgical weighs in. She was great on the show tonight. I was shocked. This turn is awesome because John's woke programming won't allow him to trash and privately harass her as he normally would. John also fears they're reporting him to the trans activist groups because that's something he would do. The Duke of Roscoe Boulevard, exactly. John
Starting point is 02:39:57 fears most what he would do. And Majestic Risk 7 plays us out with, know right I thought the devil verse was done about a year and a half ago But we just keep getting these little diamonds Avantuki that would be taking away to keys girlfriend Annie our review girl Would be pretty messed up. I wouldn't stand for it. What is it with Opie and John? Refusing to learn people's names even when talking directly to them? It's been years and he still calls her Ava and Carl Ruiz. What does he say? Yeah, Ruiz instead of Ruiz. Yeah, it's definitely a I'm more important than you thing to do, right? Even subconsciously, because I always feel bad if I get someone's name wrong, and I'm terrible with names, and I forget them all the time. And I see the same people at events and shit, and I'm the worst. That's why I'm
Starting point is 02:40:47 like, can we do name tags? Yeah, it's very effective. It's fun. One of these events, but those guys love to not know. Nothing better than not knowing. All right. Let's check out some voicemails. We're going to leave some voicemail. Who are these.com is where you want to go to get the phone number. I got a question about Dabble House. If I buy the ticket and I can't watch live, will I have access to the material after the fact?
Starting point is 02:41:15 Yes, very good question. I never talk about that. But yes, we'll be live Friday night at eight, we'll be live Saturday at two, we'll be live Saturday night at eight. But you might not be watching at that time. And you don't have to be. You can watch it anytime afterwards.
Starting point is 02:41:30 It'll still be up there for you. So dabblecon.live is where you want to go. This guy, this guy who had the good question is now angry for some reason. You know something I call in for the Wednesday show to ask a legitimate question about Babel house and can I listen to the show after the weekend is over if I buy the ticket and all you fucking do is play voicemail after voicemail about pineapple on pizza and the Wednesday Saturday listener debate and fucking boner guy in his three minute long email Gary sucks too what the fuck man answer my question
Starting point is 02:42:10 all right yes all right the reason why we didn't play your voicemail I listen to voicemails every Tuesday night and every Friday night that's my schedule if you call during the day of the show real good chance I won't get to it until the next show. Don't get to it. That was a good question. All right, let's not get all upset with the host of the show now. My optometrist is calling into the show. Good morning, Carl.
Starting point is 02:42:35 This is Chris calling from your optometrist office. You said that Caroline Leave It, the White House press secretary, was a smoke show. So we need for you to come in and get your prescription Immediately come on. You've not seen her in a bikini Am I crazy? Maybe I'm crazy Hey hamburger, yeah, Jody B has a good point listen I never donate to any podcast of all you fuckers make way too much money anyway
Starting point is 02:43:01 As if but if you actually started a thing to do a Go fund me or a charitable thing to raise money to get town on a ballot somewhere Mm-hmm, I might actually have to start 20 at that like that. That's fucking out there John should start a go fund me to run for office or actually buy a boat or whatever. It doesn't matter Venmo me and I'll send a check Okay, we'll start to go funny job, but don't worry. We're good for it Do you remember when people were Venmoing him and then they started to request money? Yes, maybe so angry He couldn't look at the app again. He's so color coordinated. He didn't like whatever color that was
Starting point is 02:43:45 They weren't really taking money. They're just requesting it, but that was too much Deluxe Collin Carl D. Locks man. I think I just ran over one of the Saturday listening at that God is no one to shut up. You know I was a Wednesday listener shooting his mouth off a road rage kind of Listeners shooting his mouth off a road rage kind of just fucking right is that so fuck you Saturday listeners Wednesday rules this rivalry is getting heated. I know it's getting real serious now. It's too much. I can I don't stand for it personally All right. Well, we boner guy fortunately is gonna try to mend some fences. You know Go bills Wednesday Saturday, come on guys. Let's not argue. Surely we can
Starting point is 02:44:27 all agree. Both shows suck. But and they're never as good as voting for Carl up the creep off.com, which is a fabulous thing to do. And on the pizza front, obviously the ultimate is going to be gammon and pineapple. I don't even know if you have gammon in the US. It's like extra thick, extra salty bacon. Fantastic stuff. But here's the thing. So over here in Africa, we have Hawaiian chicken, which is chicken and pineapple pizza. I know it sounds fucking degenerate. It's actually really good. Sounds good to me. I would do that. He was in Africa. Yeah. I thought he was in the UK. What do I know? Hey, Carl, I just wanted to say that I listened to the show on Spotify, which means I'm a
Starting point is 02:45:14 Thursday and Sunday listener. Fuck the rest. Don't call me back. That is confusing. We record the shows on Wednesdays and Saturdays, but the shows come out. If you're an audio listener, Thursday and Sunday. It's one day off. You can do the math in your head. I imagine. Hey Carl, it's John from the jingles department. Hey, so this whole Wednesday versus Saturday listeners thing, I listen to both shows. I'm a loyal fan. So I don't really have a say
Starting point is 02:45:40 in that, but I think I got to finally pick a side. I noticed that the Wednesday shows are lacking my favorite part of the show, everyone's favorite part of the show, the teaser. And the teaser is so good. Sometimes I just skip through the episodes so I can get to the teaser so I know what to be excited for in the next episode that I'm going to skip through. But like, Wednesdays not having that? I'm sorry, man.
Starting point is 02:45:59 I got to pick a side. Saturday fans all the way. Fuck the Wednesday shows. Anyway, call me back honestly I have no excuse for that I should have teasers on every Wednesday show but we don't do teasers typically on this show because I don't know what I want to talk to Adam about on Saturday afternoon it's so far away so much is gonna happen so I've kind of not been doing a teaser so that we can figure out
Starting point is 02:46:23 what we want to do the day before day of Yeah, yeah, it's really exciting that way. I know you guys love it I know you guys love it. I wait for everything to the last minute and go cake prep away No Why take the time to formulate an informed opinion when I can just randomly say the first thing that comes to my head? The clip is presented to me And then be hold into that for the rest of my. And this whole thing about what time to do the show, overrated.
Starting point is 02:46:47 I know. That was on me, everybody. Don't blame Carl. He was not late. It was all me. You showed up. So we started a little bit late today. But I am telling you, you showed up 12 seconds
Starting point is 02:46:59 after Anthony showed up. So you guys were perfect. It worked out very well. Gary in San Diego does not sound well to me. No. No. Hey Carl Well on John's final podcast. He's he's an awful lot of smacking a lot of lip smacking item number two triumph the insult comic dog I Listen to his interviews. Yeah
Starting point is 02:47:30 The insult comic dog, I listened to his interviews on YouTube and he really doesn't ask crazy questions. He just insults people. Right. Like Don Rickles. Right. So he certainly doesn't owe John an apology. Anyway that's what I'm thinking here in San Diego. Oh no. Okay, talk
Starting point is 02:47:46 to you later. Bye. Rock and roll. I think Gary is not well drunk as your says this lip smacking is literally killing Gary. It might be David Feldman brought john to that point. He discussed this he was a writer for triumph and on john show he discussed with him he like, like with a child. So was the puppet making fun of you? Yes. Was the puppet making fun of only you? No. So then maybe he wasn't just picking on you. Maybe it's what the comic dog does. Right. And
Starting point is 02:48:23 john completely heard that point for God sank in and then went back and completely unraveled every single thing and went back to but they should respect me there's no point ever in trying to show John anything the insult comic doc how to gives it away yep he didn't know what to expect and he was shocked by this response this guy's insulting me over here Jay that. That's what David said. He was like, did you expect the mean puppet dog to compliment you?
Starting point is 02:48:49 So funny. Right here we have the perfect listener. Hey Carl, this is your third type of listener calling. This is someone who, I guess they would call it a high net worth listener, to both shows watch the YouTube channel Yep, I'm the listener that provides the jobs for your your Saturday listener. So you're welcome Thank you. I'm the listener that pays all the fucking taxes for your lazy ass Wednesday listeners. So you're welcome there Thank you, and I got a pretty flexible schedule
Starting point is 02:49:24 Make my own schedule. So, you know, Kyle, you can call me back whenever you want. Yeah, thank you. I appreciate that. There should not be a rivalry. Everyone should be listening to every show we put out because they're all amazing. Weird Comet has been a member for 10 months. He says we made a world without struggle. So folks invent things to struggle about. Put people in paradise, they'll burn it down just so something interesting happens. Yep, we have it too good. That's why Dylan Mulvaney exists. I'm convinced we blew it. One more message here for Lucy Tightbox. Howdy Bag Flappers. This is Evan from Michigan here. Love you, love the show.
Starting point is 02:50:05 This is a message for Lucy Titebox. Not sure if she heard, but Carl was talking about selling pre-orders for her bedroom, bathroom, and toilet cams during the dabble house weekend. That is true. You know, it sounds like a good idea, but it's probably best for you to just undercut him and sell your shower stream directly on your Patreon. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Just good business. Call me back. Bye bye. I'm going to get the best camera. I was going to get in that room first and get it all set up. So that you can't do that. That is a pretty good idea though.
Starting point is 02:50:41 Actually, now I think about it. All right, Lucy if you want to set up the cameras yourself Okay, you win fine What you do that? Alright, Adam. Thank you so much, buddy. This has been fun today. Thank you. This was such a treat and yeah such a blast I'm having the crazy time with you fellas and next time I'll tell you when the show starts. That would be the best I know that would that's not me. I sent out the wake. I don't even put a time in there I really I'm just the worst person ever and so you're good for Wednesday Did you want to wait I can't wait and we definitely have to cover donkey lips cool alright good
Starting point is 02:51:16 Well, let's give me a chance to see some of the more reactions to it Also, I heard not to keep bringing him up, but everyone was saying that Chad had a meltdown this week I couldn't find any clips of that because he's another one his idiots who takes everything down You can't find anything so even when I hear news. I can't see what's going on. He might have been embarrassed by it, so That might be the reason why But apparently the reason yeah, he was yelling at people that because they weren't donating enough money And he was doing that I'll take my ball and go home routine he's reached that point they all do donkey lips we're gonna see they all reach that point where they're just like guys I really don't want to get a job someone says
Starting point is 02:51:54 give me some money please or I'm gonna get very upset with you you said it's something about being alone and streaming by yourself creates these certain things that it doesn't matter where you're from or your money Yeah, it all is the same because opi's the same way as donkey lips, but he lives is in a 500 square foot You know studio apartment. He's in the Hamptons by the beach, and they both Have the same place. Yeah, donkey lips doesn't have a kitchen in this apartment I have a kitchen in this apartment. Nope. Nope.
Starting point is 02:52:23 It's the craziest fucking thing I ever heard. Save it for the show. Save it for Wednesday. I gotta go, bye. I gotta go. I gotta go, I gotta go, I gotta go. Ar. This is high picture and you're listening to who are these podcasts Chinese people smell Hi a plane has hit I I rewatch it, Carly. Boom. Fuck his mom.
