Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep663 - The Howard Stern Show Jocktober Extravaganza
Episode Date: October 5, 2025This week we’re celebrating Jocktober by reviewing multiple radio shows. We start with the biggest name in morning radio, Howard Stern. On Tuesday the king of all media had a ridiculous argument wit...h his wife about whether or not he’s “fun.” It’s pretty obvious that this marriage is on the ropes based on the conversation and the specific words that are being used by Beth. Erik Nagel joins the show along with first-time guest and Howard Stern expert MLP. NYC news station 1010 WINS had a very unfortunate x-rated broadcast earlier this week. Tom Myers is back with his political podcast after taking the entire summer off and his monologue does disappoint. Morning radio staple War of the Roses had a short-lived and ill-advised animated series that iHeart quickly removed from Earth. Opie addresses the purchased views and complains about $2 superchats from “haters.” Jeffrey from the morning duo Brooke and Jeffrey sings a parody song about Cal Raleigh and there isn’t a joke to be found. We help the very stable Pulper connect with Erock. Stuttering John might have a new lawsuit on his hands as Anthony Cumia claims John SA’d a woman in Vegas. Finally, we play a round of To Poke A Dabbler, get caught up on Internet News, and listen to recent voicemails.

I told them, and the strongest of words, to just do it.
You see, this is a, we just do it kind of show.
Why do we have to let guys like Stuttering John in?
Happy birthday!
Episode 663.
Are you a boner guy?
Oh, I was a boner guy.
You know what? I missed penis.
What are you talking about?
I'm the one who should apologize.
Is it going to be absolutely riveting?
Is it going to change your life by any stretch?
Probably not, but it's going to be at least entertaining, okay?
By the way, for those people that are in the back, remember to shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up, asswife, and suck my cock.
I've been dying to say that.
Maddie-Oh!
Cuzz-a-ro!
Cuzz-a-ro!
Slaperoo-oo-oo-Slapperuni.
It's showtime.
W-A-T-P,
W-A-C-P.
Hello, welcome to another episode of Who-O-O-O-R podcast,
the only show that peaks during the intro.
I'm your host, Carl, the $850,000 man.
And with me this week, making his debut,
W-A-T-P's official Howard Stern expert and correspondent,
my friend, MLP.
What's up, MLP?
That's not a brag, man.
I wasn't saying it was a brag.
I was introducing who you are to the audience.
Producer Chris is here as well.
Hello.
Please go to Who Are These.com, get our email address, voicemail number, link to our subreddit,
link to our Discord server, link to our merchandise, link to our YouTube channel,
and that link to Patreon and Supercast featuring two, two exclusive bonus episodes.
Every single month, we just had another edition of Living in the Past with Stuttering John Melendez,
where we went back and found a podcast from even before the Stuttering John podcast that we originally
found back in 2018.
team. Yes. And John is on
Adderall and Coke and a little bit of caffeine
and confidence. He is shot out of a cannon
in this episode. We break that down as well as
the very first mention of WATP on his show
where he declared that he's never heard of us.
Yes. That hurt really bad. I was like,
I thought it was famous. God damn it. That was the only time
it was true. He gets me every time. That's true. Yeah, that's the only time
you'd never heard of us. After that, he had heard of us.
Good point.
Also, we encourage our listeners.
Give us five stars on Apple Podcasts or wherever you review podcasts and shit all of us in the comments section today.
We'll be reviewing the Howard Stern Show and kicking off Jock Tover.
This is a suggestion from MLP.
We've all listened separately, not discussed it with each other beforehand.
Let's get into it as a show hosted by the once great, the once entertaining Howard Stern.
And Howard Stern, we've documented well here.
Other people have documented this as well.
he has really declined in his ability to broadcast, his ability to be interesting and be fun and funny.
And he came back from his summer break and decided to make all these changes.
Like he's not talking about politics anymore.
Is that true, Mike?
Yeah, he gave up on politics.
Pretty vanilla.
Yeah, he's realized that alienating his audience is not helping him with his contract negotiations and telling people not to listen to him.
And then all the news coming out about, oh,
is Sirius going to renew his contract?
I was like, who gives a shit?
And Howard's like, oh, I guess I got to change something here.
I'm pissing a lot of people off.
So he's been trying to make some changes,
but I've only dipped in a few times since he came back from the summer break,
and everything I hear is just a slog.
Is that what you've been hearing, too?
Pretty much.
You know, it started, you know, when he came back with all the fakeness and all the kind
of garbage.
And, you know, even with all the politics and stuff, you know,
going to the Jimmy Kimmel, he barely even spoke about that.
and that's supposedly his best friend.
It's kind of odd, I think.
Yeah, that's right.
Everyone was waiting for, like,
what's how we're going to say about Jimmy Kimmel?
And it didn't seem like he had a lot to say about it for some reason.
No.
So I was checking out the episode on Tuesday,
and Mike said this is one that you might want to check out.
And that is a lead-off home run by Michael Bush.
I will be distracted today.
I will be distracted again today.
The Cubs keep playing playoff games while we record who are these podcasts.
It's just rude.
I mean, the Cubs are pissing me off now.
Basically, baseball is doing this to me specifically.
I don't appreciate it at all, but that's a good start.
Well, let's make sure we're done by four for the Yankees, okay?
Okay, I'll see what we can do.
So on Tuesday's show, Howard comes on, and it starts off with guitar talk, which is excruciating.
Now, I remember all of his other hobbies that he's gone through, chess and painting.
The list goes on.
Right now, it's guitar.
And he does this routinely and cyclically where he goes through different hobbies.
obsessed with it. I used to listen to talk about chess and you play chess. I don't. Whatever.
He made it interesting enough that I was paying attention when he was painting. I don't care
about his painting, but I paid a little bit of attention to it. I play guitar. And I couldn't
be more bored with guitar talk. Guys call in and they're like, oh, this is what you got to do
to learn how to play guitar. It's like, why are you taking these calls? Like just fucking enjoy your
hobby. He's busting out his guitar and playing for us still, right, Mike? Yeah, there was a guy that
called in the other day who played the guitar for him.
Yes, and then guys are going out, check this out.
It's like, cool, man.
I know a lot of people can play guitar.
It's really not that impressive in my world.
So after this guitar talk, Howard starts talking about how he passes time in his day.
And this kind of starts off into this conversation about whether or not Howard is fun.
And so what I want to break down for you today is Howard Stern show from Tuesday discussing whether or not Howard Stern is fun.
Anyway, I'm pretty much these days I just sit in the house.
And I play the guitar and I play decently when I'm by myself, kind of, kind of for me, for a guy doing it.
Well, that must be fun, though.
You must be very proud of yourself.
Sometimes I pretend I'm playing for, like, you know what I mean?
Like, I'll pretend, oh, Robin's over here and I'm playing for her, but that's about as far as it gets.
You know what I mean?
So a few of these clips to set this up are going to be dry like this.
It's just, he's painting a picture right now.
Howard sits in his mansion, one of them, giant mansion, by himself, and plays guitar.
and he used to talk about how he just wanted to sit in a chair and stare at the wall.
And that was like his goal in life.
I hope somebody I can retire to stare at a wall, Robin.
That's all I want to be able to do.
And now he's doing it, but also strumming a guitar poorly while he's doing that.
You've been playing for a while.
I have.
Have you ever pretended someone else was there and you were playing for them?
No.
That's a very strange thing.
That is strange.
If only producer Chris could see me play this chord.
Whoa, check that out.
I wish MLP was over.
Watch this.
No, that is odd.
And it's because Howard is afraid to play in front of people,
even though he plays it on the radio.
So I'm not sure what that means.
But the only person he lives with is Beth and all their servants,
but mainly Beth.
And so you'd think, like, maybe he could play a guitar for his wife.
I try to play for Beth because that would be good, too,
because, like, I can't even play in front.
So, like, I try to play in front.
But she gets so annoyed when I play guitar.
I know my guitar playing annoys the fuck out of her.
Oh.
But she won't say it.
and, you know, she's the one who got me a teacher and everything, but I can tell she wants
nothing to do with it.
Then why do you bring it to the radio?
The one audience member you have at home.
I mean, it's not a large group, but 100% of them don't like it when you play guitar.
Yeah, read the room.
And he goes, you know what I got to do is open the show with this tomorrow morning.
Weird.
So, yeah, apparently, when Howard busts the guitar out, Beth is like, all right, I'm out of here.
I said, I want to be good.
She goes, no, I hear you.
I go, you never hear me.
You, every time I start to play, you leave the room.
I think she hears you through the door.
I don't think so.
And you know what?
It's really weird to me because if Beth was playing guitar,
I would be curious as hell to hear her play.
But she wants nothing to do with my guitar.
She doesn't want to even hear it.
All right.
We'll start analyzing this now.
This is resentment.
If she had a hobby that she enjoyed, I would enjoy it with her,
but she's not enjoying my hobby with me.
Don't you think that's kind of fucked up, Robin?
Do you hear what he's saying?
Oh, yeah.
He's like, I got it all in on the cats.
What the fuck?
That's true.
Okay, I'll give him that.
But we're going to learn that there are things Beth likes to do that Howard wants nothing to do with.
So he's just as guilty of this.
But that's an odd thing where he's just like, yeah, you know, I try to play guitar for her.
She just walks out of the room.
This is just an old married couple living in a giant mansion with hundreds of cats.
I can only imagine what this seat is like, man.
It's got to be really depressing to be around them.
But Howard's decided, okay, you know what?
I'm going to fix my marriage.
I got the idea.
What if Beth and I were musicians together and we performed a duet.
And he's talking about performing this duet on his radio show coming up.
And this is a brilliant idea by Howard.
Well, Beth and I are working on a duet.
So I told you for Christmas, for her birthday, I bought her her recorder, a recorder.
Have you ever seen one of those?
They look kind of like a flute, but it's not.
Because she played one in her sixth grade class, like for the class play.
Right, because they're for children, recorders.
It's not an instrument for adults.
Yeah.
There's those things as the recorder section of the symphony orchestra.
Sixth grade is actually too old.
Yeah, I know.
I think we started playing a recorder like second grade.
And I was the best.
The teacher said, holy shit, Carl, you're going to get signed to Atlantic Records someday.
He bought her a recorder because she played in sixth grade.
Honestly, I think the slide whistle is a more adult instrument, a more sophisticated instrument than a recorder.
I'd feel better about that.
What about your favorite instrument?
The skin flute.
Hold on.
You see the mandolin, you motherfucker?
The harmonica.
Oh, I hate the harmonica so much.
So he's got her a recorder.
And recorders are very inexpensive, very easy to play.
Sound like shit.
Sound like babies dying.
But whatever.
So Howard picks out a nice recorder for her.
She hated the recorder I bought.
She said, I can't play this.
So she went out and bought a really nice recorder for $30.
Because the one I got her was $15.
I would have bought her the $30 one, but I couldn't find one.
That was more than $15 on Amazon.
Imagine that.
Dude.
Howard Stern buys an instrument for Beth, and it's a $15 recorder.
And she goes, I need to upgrade this thing.
It's twice as much.
It doesn't surprise me that the most expensive recorder is $30.
bucks yeah that's top of the line that's how you know this is not a real instrument that people play all right
so now at this point how we start talking about how he's been badgering beth to come on the air and play
and beth's been putting it off she doesn't want to do it so eventually they're like all right
how about the christmas show the last show before the end of the year well we'll build this thing up
we'll come out we'll do a duet together me and my guitar you on the recorder and this is just an example
of Robin laughing at absolutely nothing.
I mean, we've played many examples of this, but it's out of control.
Yeah, but I went to work on it with her the other day, and she didn't want anything to do with it.
Now she's not going to rehearse.
Why are you laughing?
That's a good question.
What is she laughing at?
She doesn't want to rehearse, huh?
Dr. Habert over here.
Yeah, I guess not, Robin.
Good stuff.
Dynamite dropping.
Yeah, I mean, I hate statistics.
enough for Robin, but what is she's supposed to do with
the story? I mean, this is
when we talk about old married couples,
it might as be talking about Howard and Robin.
Because these two are just fucking
what happened to you today? I don't know.
What happened to nothing? Okay. You're doing
anything's weekend now?
Jesus, what are we doing?
All right, joining us just in
time as we get into the meat and
potatoes of this
section of the Howard Stern show. My buddy
Eric Nagel. E. Rock, what's up, buddy?
Who doesn't love meat and potatoes?
I shouldn't have brought up food
I know
You're talking to the king of the steak martini here my friend
The steak martini
Yeah
I can hear your stomach from here
It's fantastic
Too much
All right so
Beth told Howard that
He's not fun
Now E. Rock
I don't know what adjectives you would think of
When the name Howard Stearns brought up
Is fun one of them
Not for the last 20 years
Yeah
Not since he was single after his first divorce
fun, adventurous, exciting.
None of those seem to apply anymore.
Yeah.
Content.
Yeah.
Hachy.
Right.
Yeah.
So apparently this is a debate that's going on.
Oh, by the way, Eric, it's my friend, MLP, MLP, EROC.
EROC.
Hello, sir.
Nice to meet you.
I don't want to be rude.
Not introducing this.
So this is, yeah, I guess Howard and Beth have been having an argument lately.
My wife says to me, you're not fun.
And I went, oh, whoa.
what do you mean I'm not fun she goes
it's not it she goes I love you I love
you so much but you're not fun
I go well wait a second
what do you mean I'm not fun
what do you think is fun
what do you how do you classify fun I think I'm fun
I'm fun
Howard thinks he's fun
Beth I think nailed it
No shit Sherlock
No shit
He's the opposite of fun he's a curmudgeon
That's usually one of the first things that is said to the significant other before the divorce proceedings happen.
Yeah.
Where it's like, you're not fun.
We used to go out to dinner.
We used to go dancing.
We used to do all of these things.
Ever since COVID, you don't leave the house.
That's the conversation that they're having.
And as we know, Beth is a star fucker and wants to be hanging out with Howard's celebrity friends.
I mean, they're celebrity friends.
You know who was fun, Howard.
Those guys I fucked.
It's funny to say that.
That is going to come up.
We're going to talk about the celebrity friends that are fun.
But first up, let's find out what kind of fun activities these two are up to.
No, I'm not saying I'm fun, but I mean, I'm not, I mean, would you say it's fun to sit and talk with me over breakfast?
She goes, no.
Oh.
I go, but she goes, that doesn't mean I, she goes, I can't wait for you to come down for breakfast so we can talk.
But it's not fun.
So I can picture this scenario.
Howard loves reading his New York Times.
He's up in the morning, walks down.
He's reading the newspaper, having some breakfast.
He's eating his grapefruit with a sugar packet next to it, that he eats with a spoon and slurps loudly.
Yep.
All those fun things.
And what do you think he's bitching about?
Donald Trump, the Republicans.
Well, the weather, yeah.
The cost of recorders.
I'm just saying he's reading the New York.
time's first thing in the morning.
I can only imagine.
I've heard him bitch about politics
many times at his show.
It's not fun.
There's nothing fun about it.
Beth has to sit there and put up with it.
So then they try to figure out
like what's an example of something
that would be fun.
And she can't seem to give me an example
of what fun would be.
So Howard,
being the intuitive guy that he is,
goes, oh, I'm not fun?
Then tell me what I should do to be fun.
It's like, yeah, that's not how marriage works.
or relationships.
I can't just tell you how to act around me
to make it better.
But apparently they were in Italy
for vacation.
July of 2024.
This is how far back we have to go
to remember the last time Howard was fun.
With Jimmy Kimmel
and Molly, of course.
I said, I said, I said,
okay, you Jimmy and Molly said
I was fun in Italy.
Why was I fun? Where is she?
here. Wait to you hear or explain it. And I don't...
Okay. You think she'll explain it to us?
Well, she told me she is not having this conversation on the air.
Now, I don't know what that means. I don't know why she won't discuss whether or not I'm fun.
This is like Stuttering John, remember a compliment?
Where it's like, you said I was fun in July of 2024. Remember that? I must be fun.
Yeah, okay. That's cool, man. It's October of 25 now. But yeah, yeah, yeah. No, that one time.
I can't remember to pay your bills, your car insurance, your rent, take care of your cats.
But you remember in 1987 when Jim Florentine said something, oh, you should be headlining, John, and he carries that like a banner.
Yeah, of course I'm going to brag.
Coming up in our Southern John segment, we're going to find out that John can't remember what Elsaat stands for, even though it's been the topic of conversation for weeks now.
So, yeah, it's one of those kind of guys.
Another thing, too, is there's not a lot of shows, but there are some shows where when the,
wife starts getting introduced, sparingly, eventually becomes a regular appearance on their show.
And that's usually one of the signs that that show is not, not too much longer to be on the air.
Don and Mike, that was a big thing with Don and Mike, where when Don kept bringing his wife on the show all the time is when a lot of the long-term hardcore Don and Mike fans started going.
It's like, I can't listen.
She's on going to be on the show for another half hour.
I can't deal with this.
And then not too long after that,
yeah, obviously she died.
Thankfully, she was taking out by a car accident,
so it saved the show.
That's what Eric was going to say.
I'm sorry.
I'll let you talk next time.
You got to the point of it.
There was that, and then the fact that he backed over his dog on the driveway
was a big topic of conversation, too.
But once the wife starts coming into the show,
you know the show is lost forever.
Weez, brother Weez's show.
40-something years. And what happened in the last several years, his wife was on the show.
And now we're starting to see it with Howard.
This is just sprinkling in, but she's been on more times than I can remember anybody else in his family other than his mom on the phone.
Right. There's a reason for that. It's because Beth is upstairs.
Howard doesn't go into work anymore. So she's in the studio. She's just a phone call away.
A text message away to coming up. I don't know if it was last week or maybe the week before.
but he called her downstairs because there were spiders in his...
Oh, I saw that clip.
Erock went to set that to me, actually.
He was freaking out.
Yeah.
You did something that.
And it wasn't like that was something we just clipped.
They put it out on the social media account.
Like, oh, the people will...
This will make Howard relatable to the common man.
Have my wife come in and kill a spider because I'm up here going, like an old Looney Tunes cartoon.
Yeah, that was the highlight of that episode.
Howard was afraid of a spider.
All right, let's find out if Howard's not fun.
Then who the fuck is fun?
I don't know.
I was like, well, but who is fun and who, how do you, how do you become fun?
Like who, like, what is fun mean?
Where is she?
Hold on a second.
Webster's Dictionary.
Let me, let me call her and say, could you come down here for two minutes?
Then she'll be, I'm too busy.
Wait, watch.
I mean, isn't that proof that you aren't fun if you don't know what that means?
And I'll give it Beth Pross when she comes out.
She does explain it pretty easily, a way that all of us can understand.
but Howard can't pick up what she's putting down.
So this is when he calls Beth to have this conversation
that Beth said she did not want to have on the show.
Hello.
Do you mind coming on the air?
Do you mind coming on the air with us?
What are you talking about?
Talking about, all right, I'll be honest.
I was going to lie.
But I'm talking about whether or not I'm fun.
You're not.
Yeah, but what is fun?
Do you want me to put a lampshade on my head
and dance around the room, would that be fun?
No, you're completely misunderstanding that whole conversation that we had.
Okay, explain.
It wasn't a negative.
Do you want me to come down?
Yeah, come on, down.
It's a quick conversation.
I just want to, like, is this fun right now?
I have a question for you, Mike.
Does Howard ever have a quick conversation?
Well, not only that, but he called her and said, you're on the air.
Like, she knows what he's doing.
By the way, I don't know if you know this, you're on the air right now.
like, yeah, yeah, I'm listening upstairs.
Yeah, right.
I know.
So then, as she's coming down to get ready to be in the studio and get berated by Howard,
Robin dodges a bullet.
Do you think I'm fun?
Oh, here's my wife.
Hey, honey.
But let me set you up.
I think I'm probably enough to answer that.
I mean, Robin, do you think I'm fun, right?
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I'm getting a weird thing in my headphones right now.
It's cutting out or something.
Oh, oh, Beth is there.
Okay, yeah, let's talk to Beth about this.
Having cancer is more fun.
Yes. I'd rather have a tumor in my uterus and hang out with Howard Stern.
All right. So, Beth, I think, sounds like an abused spouse.
And maybe I'm overselling this or overstating it, but take a lesson.
Now, let's just have to.
First of all, you make me sound like I'm so nasty and mean and just criticize you every
second.
No.
What did I say when we were talking about you're not being fun?
You said you love me so much.
You don't regret marrying me.
No. Yes. I said, I love you so much. You're the most interesting man I know. The smartest man I know. I enjoy every second with you. I choose you over anything and anyone any time of the year.
Right. You are my life. I cannot wait for you to come have breakfast in the morning. Did I not say all of this? Yes. And I told Robin.
Wow. Sounds like someone's straining to do something explaining. A little.
Holy shit. I said you're not fun. Here are the list of things that I like about.
you so you'll fucking get off my back about it already this is um when you she she's covering her
ass because he he thinks she's picking on him and she's just to everybody else she goes she's telling
you the truth and she's telling you facts and she's telling you she's trying to be uh logical
about his idiosyncrasies and his the fact that i mean we we knew he's crazy staying in his house
all the time right but it's getting even worse he doesn't go out doesn't know anything with oh
when he was at Metallica in the Hamptons.
You'd think he would be fun there a few weeks ago.
And every photo that you saw,
he's standing there in a hoodie,
like miserable waiting to leave.
Like he does not want to be there.
Hey,
what does I play for the encore, Howard?
Just kidding.
He was gone by the first stop.
Yeah.
But yeah, she tells him things.
She goes, you know,
like I think constructive criticism to him.
Yeah.
And he takes it as like,
she's always picking on me.
She nitpicks on everything I do.
It's like, no, you're a psychopath.
All she's saying is like,
I'm trying to bring.
bring you back from the brink, and it looks like she's failing.
But also, I mean, EROC's married, MLP's married.
Doesn't it seem like she's kind of a program to be like,
I got to please this man right now and list all of these things.
Trust me, I really do like you.
I'm into this and this and this.
I mean, the first couple of things she set up on was out of a Dosecchi's commercial,
like the most interesting man.
It doesn't seem real.
Yeah, and he's the smartest.
He doesn't know what fun means.
Yeah, right.
I learned that when I was a little kid.
Yeah, you're right.
She's tiptoeing around the potential powder keg that she knows he can be.
I'm not saying an abuse, but it's that mental kind of control that it's like,
all right, you got to walk on Greg shells around him or else he'll lose it over the stupidest little thing.
That's what I'm saying.
So apparently Beth went to like a high school reunion or something like that recently and Howard didn't go.
And that worked out very well.
We came up with You're Not Fun because we were talking about my reunion or something, how, aren't you glad I didn't go to your reunion? I'm like, yeah, because it would have been terrible. I would have been worried about you, your comfort, your, people would have come up to you. You would have been annoyed.
But you said it was the most fun you've ever had. I said that was the most fun I had this summer. I was dancing. I was out until 3 a.m. You don't dance. You don't stay out to 3 a.m. I didn't eat all day because there was no food there. You would have been.
miserable. You can't let
lose. You can't be
you're not easy.
So if I become a dance... You're not fun.
It's not fucking believable.
Like he's like purposely not
figuring out like she's explaining this very
well. Yes. It's the sound of
someone deliberately not getting the point.
Deliberally like oh so you want me dancing more.
Is that what it is?
You guys can kind of on that but this is the follow-up
to that. If I dance with you, would that be fun?
No, you're missing. Robin,
are you understanding?
No. Robin, love you.
You're just not that person.
Robin loves my fun.
She says you're a drip, Howard.
That was the point.
Not about the dancing part.
But they're also not talking about something that happened before all of this,
which is probably Howard didn't want her to go either.
He was trying to talk her out of going to this thing.
And then knowing that she has her mindset on this, and that's not going to happen.
I gracefully bowed out so she could go and have fun.
And she loved it.
The second the car showed up, she hopped in the car, she went to the thing, she could eat, she could drink, she didn't have to worry about getting home.
She lived it up, had a night.
He was probably in bed because he fell asleep during watching Ryan Sequest, Sequest holds the Wheel of Fortune.
He was already in bed.
She's like, it's nine o'clock.
I have the night to myself.
This is fantastic.
And he said this before on the air where she wants to go do stuff and he's like, why wouldn't you want to just be home with me?
I mean, shouldn't I be, shouldn't you want to be with your husband?
Isn't it fun?
we can watch Bachelor in Paradise?
He said that shit out loud before.
So I think you're spot on.
They're in that.
They're in that stage where they can't watch a TV show.
They have to have their spouse sitting there with them.
And if you're not paying attention, wake up.
You're missing this thing that I want to sleep.
I don't really care about this show.
They have to do things together or they can't function anymore.
Also, Howard does this thing because Beth talks about it and so does he.
Like how Suttering John talks about he wants to watch.
jaws with Kate Meaney
so he can explain all the nuances
that are going on and how it's been
directed and written. Howard is the same
thing with The Bachelor, where he's
commenting on it and giving commentary
throughout the... He needs Beth
to be there, or else he's just watching
the Bachelor. He needs to be
analyzing it and talking in real time as
he's watching it, which has got to be a lot of fun
for people.
All right, so let's find out who is
fun. What is your...
Who do you know
that is fun.
Who do I know that's fun?
Jimmy's not fun.
Jimmy's fun.
Why, Jimmy sits there like a plant and he's fun?
Jimmy is, Jimmy and I, Jimmy is fun.
On vacation, Jimmy sits.
Jimmy and Molly are fun.
You know, Jimmy likes to relax and he doesn't talk that much.
No, but he's easy.
This is, I can't believe they're still having this discussion.
Because Howard's not understanding, like, Beth can make her own fun.
Beth doesn't need Howard to be fun
She needs Howard to get out of the way
Yeah, she needs to be away from Howard
Right
The word easy
I think she said it a couple times now
Is perfect
Howard is difficult
Everything is a problem
Everything is a complaint
He's gonna get a cold
And everything has to orbit him
It has to be centered around him
Or else he can't function
Right
Every guest who's at the dinner party
Has to be hand selected by Howard
It's like oh you're bringing a plus one
Who is it?
It's everything's a problem
with this guy. And so she's like,
Jimmy Kimmel's great. He just fucking hangs
out and goes with the flow. That's what you want
when you're on vacation. I don't know
how old they are, but Jimmy and
his wife are probably around
her age or at least close to her age
where Howard's not around
their age. So they can kind of relate on
things and it's easier for them to converse
and do things than it is between her
and Howard.
Yeah, that's what happens when you marry
an old man who has a ton of money.
So you eventually realize like,
I got a ton of money.
money and cats, but this sucks.
Well,
as we mentioned,
they're constantly entertaining.
They have people over.
Howard doesn't like to leave the house,
but Beth can't have any fun when Howard's around.
Molly's not worried about Jimmy.
No?
No.
And you're worried about me.
Every second, your comfort,
you're...
Okay, we were having dinner with another couple.
I wonder if they would be mine
that I mentioned their names the other night.
You make the doubt to say...
I'm going to say it because I don't think
No care.
We had Ali and George over for dinner.
Allie went more than George Stappanoffin.
Drop!
So then she goes on this whole story about how, you know, it's not, like, George
Stephanopoulos also isn't fun.
Howard's not fun, and it's fine.
You don't have to be fun.
She's like, I married you, I knowing you weren't fun.
It's okay.
I don't know why you're worried about this.
You should know that you're not fun, and let's just live our lives that way.
In fact, if Howard wants to be fun, he can let Beth have fun more often,
and she gives a specific example of what things she would like to be doing
that he doesn't allow her to do.
You don't.
You're not spontaneous.
Sometimes I'm like, oh, it would be fun to go into the city, and let's go see, let's go see Ed Shearing.
How many times did I, how many times did I hinted that that would have been so much fun for me?
I would be more fun.
The Ed Shearing concert, I love Ed Shearin.
I would love to have gone.
He wanted me to announce him coming.
coming on stage. Guess what? The concert's over and we didn't go.
Sucker had to work all day, Wednesday, and then to get into the city takes us another
three hours, so I was exhausted. But I would be fun if I could magically get to the city.
This is interesting to me. So he asks for examples. He asks who's fun, what's fun? She gets
specific examples. Jimmy Kimmel's fun. I would like to go see Ed Shearrett at the city.
We could have done that after you're done with your show. And Howard, who's been in therapy
for all of these years
who should know to like when you're getting in from
when you ask a question you get information back
process it try to understand like okay
how how should I be reacting to this
what could I be doing better
instead of immediately with the excuse
well you know I can't get into the city
after the show because we gotta get the car
and it takes three hours to get there and I'm tired
but doesn't he still have that
that mega apartment
near Central Park still
doesn't he still have the place in the city
oh Iraq so he's
He has to take a nap after the show.
And Beth goes, you can nap at the apartment.
They have an apartment right near where Ed Shearer is performing.
And Ed Shearin invited Howard to introduce him on stage.
This was a whole thing.
And I was like, just no way I could possibly pull that off.
Plus he's got the money.
I mean, why not just rent the helicopter or something?
You could literally get a helicopter, although I'm sure he's freaked out by that one accident that happened.
Freaking Kobe.
Yeah, we'll never do that.
If he has the apartment still, that would mean he would have to come in a day early.
he could stay there he'd have to go into serious to do the show in the studio and then take his
or go back to the apartment until he has to go introduce ed sheer in his apartment and then
do the next day's show that's what he's avoiding he does not want to go back into the city
does not want to go back into serious to do the show he's avoiding everything and this whole
conversation just started with why am i not fun what can i do to be fun like here's a very specific
examples like, I'm not doing that.
Like, okay, then why are we having this discussion?
What's the point?
And as I said earlier, she just brought it up.
You're not spontaneous.
We used to go into the city and do things.
That's one of those things that leads up to the eventual breakup or whatever of a couple.
You follow somebody else who doesn't like going into the city very much anymore.
Who's that?
Greg.
Oh, yeah, Greg also hates Manhattan.
He makes that very clear.
He just wants to be in the Hampton's on Long.
Island all year round, too.
So here's another example of something that she likes to do for fun, and Howard would never
do this.
So my friends, Kelly and Joe, invited me to a Pittsburgh Steeler game.
Right.
Right.
Yeah, why can't I go to that?
So I'm going to invite my brothers and their family, maybe my mom.
And there was not one second where I thought to include you.
It would have been misery
Oh my God
But it's true
It would be
That would be miserable
Are you grateful that I'm not
But you know I'd be misery
Because if I go
It becomes a whole thing
You know what I mean
Not the way that they do it
Yeah
Again this is
A Howard problem
She's planning her life
And things
Without including him
Like she just admitted
We didn't even think
To invite you to this
But her entire family
And friends are all going
To this thing
Except her husband
husband. Right. And at first he's like, well, I want to go to that. And he thinks about her saying. He's like, I definitely will not want to be doing that. But he's not understanding what she just said. She just said, I'm going to this thing. It's going to be a lot of fun. You would hate it. I like fun. I like fun. I like fun. I like fun. I like fun. Right. That's the conversation. This discussion is about. But Howard's still not picking up what she's putting down.
All right. I'll go. You're not going. I'm not invited. I'm going to go to that game and make you have fun.
We're going to fly to Pittsburgh. Straight to the game. Oh, no. Socialize with my
I know.
There's no breaks in that schedule, however.
I guess I'm not fun.
You're right.
You love routine.
You love routine.
God forbid.
I'm like, okay, we have plans to go to the city if we do.
I said, let's leave right after your show.
No, I have to have my lunch and my nap.
She's married to an old man.
Or she's married to someone in kindergarten.
I need a snack and a nap.
And then I can do stuff.
So it turns out that Howard's finally realizing, like, he's a bad husband.
All the things you're talking about, E. Rock, this is the conversations that lead to a divorce,
a separation, and Howard's like having that light bulb go off over his head.
But I feel like I'm a failure as a husband because I should be more fun.
I accepted who you were from the day that we met.
But I was fun when we first met, right?
because I was always taking you out of you're always.
You were.
You put on a little bit of a show.
I want to get in your pants.
I wanted to bang you.
Yuck.
Howard's a chick.
This is what,
no offense to Jenny Jingle,
she's the exception,
but this is what women do
where they're like how fun
and they're horny and all this shit
when you're dating them and then you get married.
They're just like, yeah,
I actually never liked to give you a bulletjohn.
I was like, what?
He seemed really into it at the time.
Again, an exception for Jenny Chingles,
but a lot of these other women I hear about, I hear stories.
This is what Howard did.
Howard's going to turn into Howard Hughes.
Yeah.
He's already on that path.
He's mentioned that before.
He's concerned about it.
He knows that he's on that trajectory.
Like for other people who say they have OCD, which they don't, this is really obsessive
compulsive disorder.
He's slaved to his routine.
He can't vary off the schedule at all and be mentally okay with it.
doesn't want to leave the house now and eventually it's just going to be he won't answer the phone
if the show if he didn't resign if he was done that would be the end of him too like he has
no reason to talk to anybody would go and wouldn't go anywhere wouldn't even discuss the outside
world he would just be there and going crazy and growing old in his house and he would
wither away if beth left him let's say that happens he's never leaving the house again
She's the only one who's getting to go out and do anything.
And he complains about it every time.
So this past summer, you know, Howard's trying to say, like,
it's only because I have to work.
That's why I can't, like, do these spontaneous things.
I've got to worry about my voice.
I've got to be ready to go and mentally prepared for my show.
And Beth goes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you have the entire summer off.
And we had no fun the entire summer.
I'm a misery when I'm, when I have a cold and stuff and I'm sick.
Oh, my God.
But it's only because I have to work and use my,
No, honey, you were off all summer.
You were not fun.
But I wasn't sick all summer because that's why.
Because when I have fun, I get sick.
Okay.
But one night we had fun.
I went to the Stevens Talk House to see Marin Mara.
Yeah, poor me.
What happened?
He got sick.
I got sick.
I can't have fun.
Then why did you have Beth on to talk about that?
Right.
Why did you argue with her that you are fun?
And now after there's a quick discussion, you've realized that you can't have fun.
You're unwilling to have fun.
And he's talked himself into, if he does go out and try to do something fun, he will get sick and die.
His therapy ruined Howard?
It hasn't helped.
Although I've had this conversation with Adam Bush, where he's like, imagine how bad he'd be without the therapy.
I can't imagine me worse than this.
I don't know.
Again, this points to Howard being in kindergarten because, you know, at that age, you want your kids to go out and play with other kids and get sick and get all the stuff.
Right.
So that they build up their immunity.
Get the chicken pox, all of that stuff.
Howard has isolated himself for so long
his body reverted to not understanding the common cold
or anything so if he shakes someone's hand
touches a door a doorknop
just goes and walks through a crowd
all of a sudden he's got some kind of crippled
sickness that he can't function for the next few days
that concert he's talking about that he went to
no one else was sick afterwards
only Howard caught a cold from that concert
he always talks about he's so worried about his voice all the time too
you know like he what's he got
like nine hours a week right and he doesn't even have his voice is just so monotone now
well how many hours a week do you podcast a lot more than that too many i haven't done the math
on that i'm not that good at math but yeah it's like and he doesn't talk excitedly he just says
at robin you know i was uh complaining to my wife robin you don't need to spare your voice
too much to pull that i mean 71 so there's no inflection yeah right you know who else was there
that probably had to worry more about their voice than Howard did.
Paul McCartney.
All the musicians and singers that were there?
Yeah.
Paul McCartney, there's a photo where he's like two or three people away from Howard,
and you don't see Paul worrying, but he's like,
I got to perform, the most famous singer of our time.
Who's 10 years older than Howard, too.
And was not concerned that he might get a bit of a scratch in his throat
before having to go perform somewhere else.
So then Howard brings up the thing that he wants to do with Beth,
You know, the thing that he finds fun is playing guitar.
And so he wants to rehearse this duet they're going to do.
You know what?
We're going to start with.
We're going to have practice tonight with the guitar and recorder.
That's fun for you.
No, that's fun for me.
I'm doing that for you.
That's not my fun.
I'm doing it.
By the way.
Wow, he changed the subject right there.
I didn't go back to it.
That's fun for you.
No, I don't like doing that.
Well, then why the fuck are we doing it?
Beth wants nothing to do with this duet playing the recorder.
We're going to put on our little performance.
So after dinner, the whole family will come into the living room.
and we'll perform, and everybody will think it's great.
We've been working on it all day.
She, I don't know.
I think it was before you came on, Iraq.
Howard bought Beth a recorder because she played it in sixth grade.
And now she has to learn a song so they can play a duet on the radio show in December.
And Beth's like, I don't want to do this.
She's mentioned this multiple times.
And Howard's like, yeah, yeah, we're going to do it.
We're going to make this happen.
What if they do it?
It's the last show.
And then Christmas break, and then he doesn't get his contract back.
That would be how they end the show.
show that'd be fucking awesome
that'd be a hell of a way
to add the Howard Stern show
you see the documentary down the line
the big triumphant end it's
it wasn't star studded it's just
him and his wife playing three blind
mice in that little studio
downstairs they shove the recorder up
Ronnie's ass afterwards
I'd watch that
you're very talented Carl
I know I was doing my impression of a recorder
they're shitty instruments they sell the garbage
turns out she hates music.
I don't have time for this.
That's what I mean. You're not going on. It's not fun
for me. Then forget it. We're not doing it.
We're not doing it. It's like assignment.
I know. Yeah, forget it. I'll do it for you.
No, I'm done with that.
You're going to have fun. Wait till you see.
I'm going to devote myself to your fun.
Uh-oh.
Oh, boy.
See, Robin caught on to it. She's like, uh-oh.
We're going to have fun. He's going to plan a rigorous routine
on how to have fun.
takes all the fun out of anything he's even going to come up with.
Yeah, I had the solution.
Leave her alone.
Give her the credit card and then leave her alone.
That's the solution to Beth having fun.
Howard could probably benefit from like a PlayStation or an Xbox.
Like if she just got him into something, he'd be sitting there playing video games all day.
He'd be playing chess.
Yeah.
PlayStation.
Kinky Loco is in our Discord right now.
And somehow he just got the stream yard link for Stuttering Johns.
big birthday extravaganza,
a 60th birthday show that he's doing right now.
So if anyone wants to pop on John's show,
you can get the link in our Discord
or the live show chat channel.
I'll send it to somebody.
Sorry, yeah, send it along.
Somebody just found that.
That's fun.
What does bring Beth Joy?
Do you think Howard will know the answer to this?
He should.
He would think.
What's one thing that I said,
that I love more than anything?
Going out to dinner.
No, that yes.
And I will take you.
What makes me alive?
What makes me, what thrills me?
When I put my penis inside of you.
Correct.
But what brings me such?
When am I in the best mood when what?
I spend a day where?
With me.
I don't know.
In Manhattan.
Whenever I go into the city, all day long, I text him.
I am back home.
I am in my element.
I hate Manhattan.
I love the vibe of the city.
It's just the best.
And you're like, oh, I hate the city.
Yeah.
Doesn't that tell you everything you need to know?
What brings me the most joy?
Being with me?
Sex with me?
Dinner with me?
You're not in it.
When I'm having fun, you're not there, man.
You can not figure that out.
This is funny, too.
This is a real tale about how exhausted Beth is being married to Howard.
Yeah, it turns into about you and your misery with the city, not my joy of the city, but that's okay.
No, I'm going to enjoy it now.
It's all about you and your comfort.
And I'm in, I've, that's my life for 20.
How many years have we been?
How many years will we've been together?
25.
Oh, my goodness.
25 years, I know you.
That's not a good side.
How long has it been 25 years?
Oh, God.
Oh, my goodness is very telling.
Very telling.
Oh, my God.
I didn't think it was that long.
And then this goes back to, I'm telling you, this is an abused spouse.
And I do mean mentally, verbally, but you can tell from this.
And I look forward to being with you every day.
I hope you do the same with me.
I just said that.
All right, I'm just saying.
Am I done now?
No.
Can I go now?
Nope.
We're not done with this discussion yet.
And then Howard, this is my last clip on here.
Howard says the most awful thing that he could possibly say because now he's hurt.
He didn't get the answer that he wanted.
Oh, you are fun.
I'm just fucking around.
Now he's hurt because it's been explained to him that he's not fun and why he's not fun.
I don't know.
I guess it upsets me that I'm not fun, but you're right.
I guess I'm not fun.
it's not
I don't know how much fun
I don't know how much fun you are
I mean
I don't know that you're fun
What is this about me?
I'm trying to think
What's so fun about you?
You know what I mean?
He has to lash out back at her
Oh I'm not fun
You're not fucking fun bitch
No you should see me dance until three
I'm at my reunion
I was having a lot of fun
I'm going to ask a D or two as well
A lot of people were having fun
That night
So
I just
I found that, you know, when I get a peek into Howard's actual life, I'm always fascinated
by that because so much of Howard's show is fake now that it's interesting when Beth comes
on, and this is a real discussion they were having, and then Howard wants to rehash it.
It's not understanding what she's saying.
It was supposed to be, I was wrong, Howard, you're fun, this is great.
I don't know why I said that.
And props to Beth for sticking to her guns and explaining to him that he's a,
Pretty bad spouse at this point.
You listen to more of the show than I did, MLP.
What else did you pick up on?
I know there was people calling in and talking about this later on.
Yeah, they pretty much picked up and, you know,
one guy called in and said he sounds exactly like his mother.
Oh.
Just complaining and miserable all the time.
That's a good call.
Howard is definitely his mother.
You know, his rebuttal to that would be that, you know,
he's been doing this for 50 years and, you know, being fun and being the life of the party,
He, you know, was his profession.
So, you know, he doesn't care of living.
Could you imagine?
Guys, I just want to turn it off for a minute, please.
Why isn't he currently fun?
He does fun for a living.
You know, he's had to host parties with the lampshade on his head.
He's going to around, playing the recorder.
Yeah, he paid his dues.
It's too much, too much at this point.
Oh, it's hilarious.
All right, anything else?
Any other thoughts on that before we move on?
Just the one last thing I always think about is, like, you know,
Beth was a model and she was all over the world in doing all kinds of fun things.
Yeah.
She was on David Letterman.
She was meeting celebrities.
And now the fun is like scooping cat shit.
And she loves that.
Because it gets her away from him probably.
Yeah.
I think you're right about that.
But you're right.
Beth had a very exciting life.
She's hot in a model and meeting all these people.
And Howard, when they met, they were going to.
strip clubs together and how it was going out all the time and it's single howie and wow
that changed quickly that's kind of a good move again it's an older couple thing where it's like
well my life's over now i don't do these things so you need to stop doing those things too well i don't
want to stop doing this no no you need to stop doing these things because i won't do these things
anymore that resentment is building it is it is a powder keg that is waiting to explode
Michael Gavin Ali's show coming in and says
Why aren't Howard and Stuttering John become friends again
Since they dislike Trump
Howard is an old 70 years
Who should retire like 10 years ago
Well said Michael
He's a poet
He always nail it with the grammar
I don't think everyone who hates Trump
Are friends with each other
I'm not sure that's how politics or the world works
We are celebrating Jocktober
This is exciting time of year for us here at WATP
And we have a
Jocktober themed show for you, including our
Grinch of the week.
Grinch of the week.
Now, E. Rock, you set this over to me.
10-10 wins had
the incidents on the airwaves this week.
So, I
here's the thing. I was in the car
when this happened and I was
screaming because I was like, damn it,
I'm not going to be able to get a cop. Who's taping
a news station, right? It's not going to be
archived. When I
finally got home, I'm looking at all. Somebody caught
it and somebody recorded it. So I
I grabbed it too. We did it on our show.
10-10 wins. If you're not familiar,
it's the most famous and the biggest listen to news talk station in the United States.
It's in 22 minutes, they give you the world, which is their slogan.
They have hundreds of listeners. Hundreds. It's amazing.
So, yeah, news, sports, weather, all of that stuff.
And then repeats every 20, 22 minutes, something like that.
So they are doing their regular broadcast.
And I think they were throwing it to either the traffic or the weather.
person and this has happened at other stations but usually it's like if a DJ's trying to queue up
another song you'll hear another song playing while the song is live on on the station so you'll hear
that kind of thing or sometimes the hot mic is happening and they say something that shouldn't
have been said in the background but it goes out over the air this is different this is in that
vein but this is something that you would never think would happen especially at a news talk
The freeze the rate.com.
Greg Rice 10-10 wins at 92.3.m.
Let's get a check of your acuity weather forecast.
Here's meteorologist Brian Thompson.
After another pretty warm day today, Lori,
it is going to be cooling off quite a bit over the next few days,
including tonight.
The breeze is going to be picking up,
and it is going to be cooler as it turns out cleared apart the cloudy.
No, yes.
Dude, are you coming right now?
I have.
I just don't look at it.
Oh, God.
Unplug it, maybe?
I don't know.
I don't know where that's coming from, Greg,
but it seems to be we have another station on the air here.
What is?
I can't even know.
I like how she's, her cover of is another station's coming in.
If another station's coming in, it's something in-house.
So that means the other four or five stations, someone's playing a porn clip.
Right.
Yeah, someone's coming on the other stage.
I'm going to shoot over there.
Try this again.
We're getting a lot of interference right down on the line,
but we're going to try to connect now with Accuweather's Brian Thompson.
Brian.
So I was letting that play the whole time.
That was all dead air.
They were just like, shut it all down.
Shut it down.
Oh, yeah.
So, yeah, there was at least 10 seconds of dead air, which is, you know, not unheard of,
maybe in a smaller market, a smaller station or something.
But New York City, one of the most listened to stations in the country, and they just hit
everything on the board.
They slammed it all off.
And for like 10, 15 seconds, there's dead air as they're trying to figure out where that
porn clip is coming from.
So it's not actually porn.
You found out what the source material was.
I'm not going to play the clip because I don't want to copyright strike,
but you want to explain what that was?
Right.
So listening to that, if you didn't recognize who would,
it sounds like a porn clip because she's like,
are you coming right now?
And she goes, oh, yeah, don't look at me.
And then you hear it go, oh, oh, it sounds like a porn clip.
Oh, I'm so hard.
I remember you here.
But what it turns out is there's some Canadian show that's on Netflix called Working
moms. It's made by Ivan Reitman's
daughter. She writes,
creates, stars in the whole thing there. And there's
a scene where she goes to something that's
called like an aqua massage. It puts
you in a machine and the water is just shooting
at you from all directions.
And she just starts
having orgasms from the water,
you know, hitting her in all these directions, stuff like that.
So somebody was watching Netflix
in another studio and
potted it up because the computer was
patched into the board rather than
you know, just put it in
audition or listen on their own
and it just went all over the place.
Yeah, that's
the worst possible timing
for that to happen during the show.
Actually, what I think we should do
is check in with my buddy, Tom.
You know, it's no different than,
you know, police officer running to the scene of a crime
or a firefighter running into a burning
building. It's what I do.
Tom Myers versus the rest of the world
is back, baby, after a summer break.
themselves. They are back with season six. Tom Myers is joined by panelists, Polite Kitty,
Alison Chadwick, Lucy Straussbaugh, and Joe Gorman, original air date, the 2nd of October,
2025. Brand new episode, of course, Tom does a political show, and he leans very heavily to the left.
He's had all summer to write jokes for this show. And you can tell that because he goes back
to things that happened months ago. True. So I would imagine.
imagine he's probably been honing these jokes and really just making sure they're perfect.
Word economy's right. The punchline punches. Everything's hitting. It's probably been rehearsing it.
So he's going to do a great job presenting these jokes. This is the first one on season six after being
off for months. Hello and welcome to a brand new season of Tom Myers versus the rest of the world.
A lot has been going on since we were last with you. As we're recording this were a few hours from a potential
government shutdown. So if no spending bill has been passed by the time this episode drops,
welcome newly furloughed federal employees. You can join your fellow former co-workers who joined
us this past spring in listening to the show and hearing us shit on your old boss.
Okay, so the government shutdown. So this is actually something that's new in the news. I'll
give him a pass on that. He thinks that because government employees, federal employees are being
furloughed that they're going to start listening to his show and he's going to have more
listeners now was that the conclusion he came to from this came off that way yeah it was a hearty
welcome to them was that like when they got their papers where they're like all right you're
going to have some time off we'll we'll pay you eventually you're just being furloughed in the
meantime there's this podcast the rest of the world check it on that all right so this is a joke
going back to the big beautiful bill that was passed months ago.
The big beautiful bill was passed by Congress.
It's only beautiful if you enjoy having your eyes drilled out of its sockets and your nuts tased.
Of course, we were all lucky that it passed.
Let's go back to that.
What the fuck?
It's only beautiful if you're like having your nuts tased?
How do you connect those two things?
Yeah, he finally gets the economy of words there, and it's a non-joke.
It just doesn't connect.
The setup and the punchline just don't connect at all, but he gets zero response, which I appreciate it.
It's like he writes a bunch of setups and then it's like, here's random responses that I have that I could try to connect somewhere.
And then he just draws it on his board and go, well, I haven't used these two.
So I'll just throw it into that.
And hopefully that all works out.
That would actually be brilliant.
What if there was a comic who came up and did just like what Tom Myers is doing?
Like a dartboard.
And yeah, you hear all these setups and all these punchlines and none of it connects.
And then he goes, oh, shit, I had this backwards.
And then he does that exact same act, but actually with the real set-ups and punchlines.
And some people are going, oh, okay, now it makes a...
This is what Tom should do, is actually learn how to write these jokes at some point and then do them correctly.
He should watch the Funny Bot episode of South Park.
Right.
It's just word salad.
Yeah.
It's only beautiful if you enjoy having your eyes jolt out of its sockets and your nuts tased.
Of course, we were all lucky that it passed when it did.
If House Speaker Mike Johnson had gotten any more excited about it,
he would have gotten an erection and told his son.
That got a good reaction right there.
That's good stuff.
That was a nervous reaction because she wasn't expecting erection to be said.
It had nothing to do with the setup, the structure.
Oh, yeah.
Tom is shocking.
He's a shock comedian.
Be careful with him.
This joke makes no sense.
Listen closely.
Tell me what the fuck is going on here.
It's the first thing big and beautiful that Trump has proposed that he has a
called a fat pig.
That was the perfect reaction for that.
Is he talking about Rosie O'Donnell?
It's the first thing, listen to this again.
It's the first thing big and beautiful that Trump has proposed that he hasn't called
a fat pig.
The first thing big and beautiful, Trump has proposed that he hasn't called a fat pig.
Anyone?
No one?
No one comes?
I mean, I'm assuming he's saying
Rosie O'Donnell's beautiful?
Mr. Chris is like,
there's no way that's it.
All right, I'm sorry, I'm trying to figure out
who else is he called a fat pig
or what else is he called a fat pig?
I don't know.
He never talks about E. Rock.
Hey.
He's sitting right there, dude.
I'm right here.
Okay, so this UN speech jokes come in now,
and this gets the flattest reaction ever.
Donald Trump gave a speech at the United Nations.
Before his speech, the escalator broke down
As if even it knew that Trump was going to say something shit stupid
And boy was that escalator right
Trump's speech to the UN is basically the United States
Giving a worldwide platform to that relative at Thanksgiving
Who gets drunk and angry about a Facebook post from the Lincoln Project
Mm-hmm
Mm-hmm
It's like the escalator knew his speech was going to stink
Uh-huh.
and then it was right.
It did stick.
Okay.
Which makes me right.
Holy shit.
His guests aren't listening.
They're just hearing the rhythm while they do something else.
They're on their phone.
They wait for the pause and then go, uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, you're right.
When he says, you know, the escalator knew he was going to say something stupid, give an example.
What did Trump say during that speech that was so stupid and then make a joke out of it?
This isn't difficult to do.
Tom is so low level on his political commentary.
He just thinks he can say, like, yeah, Trump gave his speech.
He said dumb stuff.
Everyone was going to be like, you got it, Tom.
That's it.
That's what happened.
All right.
We're back.
Yeah, like, okay.
Also, you heard there at the end, he's like, oh, it's like your uncle reacting to a Lincoln project, Facebook post.
You know, the family members who are conservative, those losers are always flying off the handle of dinner parties and family gatherings.
He's the only one.
that I can think of
that over explains throwaway
references. Like when
something comes up, you have a reference to a
TV show, a movie, a situation, whatever.
He goes that, you know, if you
just said the one person, sometimes
people were like, oh yeah, that situation means
that person. He has to break down
the explanation for the threat. It's like, you've
ruined any part of this conversation. I don't
want to talk to you anymore. Yeah,
it's very specific. Like, it's not just like
mad about something they saw on Facebook. It's like, no,
a post from the Lincoln Project, which
by the way, is left-wing propaganda, and that's why. Anyway, so he has a joke right after that
with pretty much the same punchline. We now have to answer to other world leaders because of that
speech. It's the diplomatic equivalent of saying, now what grandpa really meant to say was
so again, another dumb relative who says dumb things at Thanksgiving. And probably a joke
that was recycled from the time Biden was in office.
They were like, well, what grandpa meant to say.
So he heard that somewhere else and just repurposed it.
Yeah.
And it didn't get a reaction, even though everyone's rooting for Tom and this, which tells you everything you need to know.
And so this next one offends me, and I'm not even a stand-up comedian, but I just hate the way Tom lumps himself in with this fine profession.
One analyst referred to it as the equivalent of a stand-up comedy show.
haven't comedians taken enough of a beating in just the last few months alone
why burden us further by comparing us to this shit
if anything trump's UN speech is more akin to an open mic set
just with the racism and xenophobia being more subtle
I hate that
someone said it was like a stand-up performing it's not like us
whoa whoa whoa top I mean let's cool your jets on how you're a stand-up comedian
he works at a restaurant you know he's he's trying to get super chat to get uh get chad zubach
to pay attention to him yeah it's it's his stand up is mostly like somebody he's trying to do
some kind of spoken word commentary or poetry and then if he just gives what he thinks is the
comedic inflection and the delivery then it automatically becomes stand-up comedy and it's not
yeah i've always said if if you were a foreigner and you watch tom do his stand-up set you'd be
like, oh, that's a stand-up comedian, because he does deliver as if they're jokes.
You know, the delivery's right.
The material's not.
It's like, well, that's not funny or make any sense.
So why would anyone laugh at that?
He's the only one that comics will tell me, it's like, maybe you should write less.
Right.
Yeah, tone it down a bit, write less, and just kind of wing it more.
But then he also says, it's actually more like an open mic.
It's like, okay, it's kind of the same thing.
But with more xenophobia or whatever it was, like, again, give an example.
I'm not cutting any of this out.
He's just like, Trump gave a speech at the UN and it sure did suck, and everyone knows it.
One thing that he said or a concept that he had that you could talk about, he came up there and said the global warming is bullshit.
You don't have a joke about that, Tom?
A lot of people like to say things, and then it's not hard to pull clips anymore.
Right.
It's fairly easy to get a clip of anything.
Well, this is the monologue, of course.
But still, you know, even when he's, and other shows do this too, they say things.
like, well, where's the clip?
Show the clip.
Oh, we can't do that right now.
We're not doing steel toke today, Eric.
Oh, my God.
Play the clip.
They hate each other and they're the same people.
I know.
Yeah, you're right.
Tom tries to fuck with Aaron.
Although Tom hasn't gotten arrested.
He's not going to jail or anything like that.
Yet.
I'll give him that.
Tom would have to have a girl actually show nudes to him in order for him to perform revenge
porn or pull that off.
What the hell is that?
What's a nudes?
All right, so Elon Musk, of course, is an enemy now because, you know, who's part of Trump's cabinet for a little while.
Elon Musk is no longer at the White House.
He has formed the America Party, which is how he and his fellow racist neurodivergence describe a Fourth of July get-together.
Oh, my God.
Now, here's my question for you.
I'm not paying as close of attention.
Maybe I should be.
Is Elon Musk a racist?
Is that a thing?
Because the problem that he had with Trump was that he wanted to have that visa where they can bring more brown people over for tech jobs.
Like he was trying to bring over like lots more brown people to help us out with our tech companies and building up that sector.
But he's racist now?
He's a lot of things.
I don't think racism is something that you go to describe Elon Musk.
Yeah.
He did leave Africa.
But who can blame him.
Oh, here's a fantastic joke.
It's a punchline that has been nuanced to a way that you've heard this joke before,
but Tom has figured out a new way to tell it.
The Justice Department issued an indictment against former FBI director James Comey.
The indictment was only two pages as that suits Trump,
since his attention span is that of a dying goldfish, who knows it's about to be flushed.
Love that.
His attention span is that of a dying goldfish that knows it's about to be flushed.
Do goldfish have that concept in their head about being flushed?
Are they told from a young age?
By the way, once you get to a certain age and it's not going well for you anymore,
we will be flushing you with the toilet.
Yeah.
That knows it's about to be flushed.
Damn it, I knew it.
I'm a fucking idiot.
Does he get paid by the word?
No, he gets paid.
He doesn't get paid at all.
There's no payment happening here.
All right, let's, this is another nonsensical one that guys,
Help me out. Listen closely. Tell me what I'm missing here.
White House Bordersar, Tom Holman, was found to have accepted a bribe from undercover FBI agents before the election last year.
They gave it to him in a giant paper bag, which just shows how out of touch with the modern world this guy is.
I mean, how old is this guy? Do we have to treat him like wily coyote and flatten him with a boulder?
Okay, so he took a bribe that was given to him in a paper bag because he's old.
And how old is he?
Do we have to treat him like Wiley Coyote?
And flatten him with a boulder.
How old is this guy?
Let me give a reference that's 70 years old.
Is that what?
Is that what that is?
Because Wiley Coyote's been around for a long time?
I didn't make that connection.
I didn't either.
What does that Wiley Coyote have to do with this guy being old and getting a bribe in a paper bag?
Anyone?
I'm stretching.
That's the only thing I could think of.
It's like there's no other connection to this.
Tom, come back on my channel.
I have to ask you about that joke specifically.
I want to play that joke for it.
We go, what were you thinking?
What am I missing here?
I need to know.
Well, if you don't get it, Carl, you just don't get comedy.
Well, it's probably true.
So he's still talking about the borders are.
Tom Haman.
Tom Homan responded to the allegations by saying he gets threats and he doesn't even live with his family anymore.
That just shows the only person really happy that Tom Homan is the Borders are is Mrs. Homan.
God of his family hates him too
Pretty good stuff
I feel like you guys are not getting any of these jokes
And I'm playing them with the setup
And the punchline all in tag
I know I think you guys would be laughing over here
Or Tom's projecting because maybe his family doesn't like him either
Probably
He's not fun
I mean what kind of family we talk about
He just has parents
All right so this tag after that joke gets nothing
Of course being forced to leave
his home is fitting, given
that's his policy on immigrants in this
country. Okay.
Wow.
I mean, that's such low-hanging
fruit for these people. You'd think they'd be like, all right,
Tommy, yeah, you tell them, and they're just
like exhausted at this point.
He didn't even give them a chance to go,
uh.
Yeah, he just, like, he just, he cut him off at the past,
saying, like, this, all right, this is, this is bad
even for me. And what's odd about this? So, that
nervous laughter that he has when jokes, Bob,
so you're going to hear that here
and then you're going to hear an edit
going into the next joke,
but why not edit out the nervous laughter?
So this is the end of the last clip
going into the next clip.
Tom Holman's bribe
should have come with one of those
exploding die packs.
That way, when he opened that paper bag,
it would have improved his complexion.
I love that.
It's a reaction to a joke.
Hmm.
I suppose that's true.
So you can tell this show
is highly edited.
It's not live.
it's always exactly 30 minutes he edits the hell out of the shit why not edit out the time when you go
nothing nothing guys okay because it's still a laugh oh right it's like the opi thing where it's like
people are laughing must be good must be fun stuff and if it's if he's never live it's always edited
why does he need seasons why does he need time off or the summer off to do this i don't know
man that's another great question and why does he make these people sit through his monologue
just pre-record it and pop it in and then start your show.
If he started putting that laugh track that most podcasts play when they
emphasize their own jokes or whatever, if he just did that without them, that would
actually be better.
Like, that's the guy who should be using that clip all the time after his jokes.
You know, uh, the escalator thought that Trump was going to say some stupid shit.
Yeah.
And it turns out the escalator was right.
See how easy that is?
So much better.
Thank you.
All right.
Last clip I have on here.
So again, always be bashing Trump.
That's going to work out very well.
And finally, former President Joe Biden announced he had bone cancer.
Trump responded by saying that Biden had stage nine cancer.
Oh.
Of course, he got confused as stage nine is his level of dementia.
And well, on that note, on with the show.
This is where I get confused about this side of the aisle, where they go, Trump is Hitler.
He's going to destroy our world.
And this is fascism.
Then they go, he's also a senile man.
There's no idea what's going on.
Well, okay.
Well, which one is it?
I don't know if it can be both, but the jokes seem to be either way.
You might want to isolate that last, ha, and use that.
Every now and then when a joke falls flat for somebody else,
just give a pause and then hit that.
All right, we'll hear that again.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
Miss Craboppel.
Right.
Pretty good stuff.
So anyway, Tom's back.
We're happy about that.
And hopefully, you know,
he probably hasn't worked these muscles in a little while,
so he's a little out of shape.
But now he's starting to write these monologues again.
We'll get some jokes that make a little bit of sense.
Maybe are jokes.
I don't know.
I'm optimistic.
Yeah, we're pretty optimistic guy.
Delusional.
A delusional is another term you could use for it.
What if Wiley Coyote didn't get smashed by the boulder?
It was an Acme iron instead.
Oh, yeah, you should have gone with the anvil.
Yeah, the anvil.
The anvil would have been probably the right way.
Then it would have been hilarious.
Yeah, we just got to punch these things up, Tom.
Run them by me, running by my office.
We'll help working on it.
I'll send him over to pad outs.
Run them into the fake tunnel that the roadrunner painted on the boulder there.
See?
That can only help, right?
Well, there's T&T in the bag.
No, we are.
You can only do it once.
All right, so we are celebrating Jocktober, my favorite time of year for us here on WATP.
And E. Rock sent me something over a couple of months ago that this happened during the summertime.
And I didn't talk about it then.
I'm glad we saved it for this because one of the great bits that we learned about from the original Jocktober with Opie and Anthony was War of the Roses.
war of the roses is on in every market across the u.s everyone acts like it's their morning
shows thing ryan cress has ryan's roses and the premise is a girl thinks the guy's cheating
on her so they go okay we'll get to the bottom of this and they call up the guy and go hey you
just want a dozen roses we'll send him whoever you want and the guy goes oh yeah send
my mistress she's fucking hot and then the wife's on the phone like what the hell the mistress is hot
what is that that explain that correctly Eric I think it's a better way to describe it yes it's the
basic premise of this that's war of the roses and of course it's not well I was going to say they're
actors but it's actually people in accounting and sales it's been around since the 80s yeah
that's it's all scripted it always works out the way they wanted to work out with the guy getting
busted cheating and the woman freaking out and so what happened at your company I heart this
passed over. What were they up to? So they were ramping up the fact that War of the Roses is now
going to become a television series. Fuck. And then we're like, what? Really? That? And then it was
announced, well, now it's an animated series. Wait, that's going to take even longer to do. And you're
paying a lot of money for that. All right. So we hear this is coming. So I'm thinking,
all right, remember the old show Dish Nation? Yeah. It used to have Scott and Todd on there for
a bit and then had other shows that were around the country so they would cut back and
forth based on whatever the topics were to get different shows takes around the country.
So I'm thinking, oh, it might be that because there's so many shows that do War of the
Roses, especially within IHeart that they'll probably like, well, they'll take this one from
New York, this one from Detroit, this one from D.C., whatever.
Then as they're revealing more, oh, no, it's only going to be one show, and the show in New York
is going to be the main focus for War of the Roses.
So you're now telling the nation if they hadn't figured this out or if they even cared
that, hey, you know that show you listen to in your market?
That's not their bit.
This now is going to say, well, it's the guy in New York and all these other people are
just recycling it or whatever they're going to do.
So that's a bad decision.
They put out a trailer and we'll ramping it up and hyping it up for their big
release. I think you have the trailer. Yeah, let's watch the trailer. Pamela's a writer.
A novelist, mostly for adults.
You want to call Jim, right?
I have reason to believe that he might be cheating.
Hello?
How's it going?
What's going on here?
You having fun cheating?
What the heck is this about?
You're on The Roses.
You've been caught cheating.
I don't even know what to do, but I got to do something.
They're trying to make it look like it's an action show or something.
The animation is ridiculous.
There's explosions going on.
And there's people undercover.
It looks like a spy thriller.
Yeah, it looks like Archer.
Yeah, it looks like Archer.
It was like, no, it's just a fake prank phone call that they do.
Yeah.
So remember, this is a bit that they circulate through all their big shows around the country.
And you could see the ending slate on that trailer.
there that it says from
the number one hit radio show
in New York City.
Fuck everybody else that's been doing this bit
forever. We only care about this
one show. Also, as you
pointed out, this has been going out since the 80s.
They call it the hottest show on air
coming to your screen.
Is this still gaining momentum this War of the Roses?
Well, here's when I found
out. I couldn't, I was trying to figure out.
It's like, why now? Why are they trying to
do this thing going into the summer
with all of this? Apparently, because
you know, TikTok. People on TikTok discover something that's old and they were like,
you don't know about this. They put it out there. It's like, this is new to everybody else of that
generation that's on TikTok. So these War the Rose's calls have been chopped up from all the
different hosts around the country and are just, you know how TikTok does? They play audio,
but then somebody's playing a video game in the top part or there's some weird, like somebody's
gardening. It's just, there's visual there that means nothing to what the audio is.
these things started circulating and getting a lot of views for these War of the Roses
calls because it's new to these young people so as a company does after it's already been
successful and popular hey now's the time to strike and let's do something new and relevant
with this somebody's going to think a long time to ramp up to too because we got to animate
all this shit and put this all together so they're like get it out of the air now go go go
they're like all right we'll get into production and you know a few months from now we'll start
looking at some reels and
so the trailer there and it says
July 24th at the end of that
when they were going to launch the first episode.
So I said, you know what?
I thought I, because we did a big
expose on our show over the summer
talking about how terrible this is.
And then when the first episode dropped,
we broke down the episode again,
showing you how terrible all this is.
So I was like, all right, let me see if I have the episodes
there. And those episodes, some of them were
anywhere from 13 to 30 minutes.
Like, how do you stretch this bit that long, right?
I can't find the full episodes.
I was like, all right, I'll just go all back to the YouTube channel to pull them again and send them to you.
They shut it all down.
Oh, no.
It's only the July they started doing this.
You have the link in the email to the YouTube channel.
The YouTube still exists, but all the content has been wiped.
Wow.
From it.
they put out eight episodes, and then from what I'm hearing, the reaction, the reviews they were getting were so negative that they scrapped the rest of this thing, to the point that you can't find these things anymore.
I'm just lucky I had the trailers for the episodes.
Yeah.
So I gave you those.
You could play whatever ones you want.
Let's watch another example of a trailer for one of these exciting episodes.
Is there anything wrong with that?
them saying real stories, real calls, real madness?
I don't know how they, how they could do that because they are really phone calls, right?
Right.
And the stories, I guess, probably are true, you know?
Yeah, we wrote them.
So they're definitely true.
Yeah, they're stories.
Tactically real stories.
Dee, are you there?
Yeah.
This is actually happening right now.
She got a call from this guy, this man.
He told Dee, her husband, is currently.
in a motel, and this guy's apparently
sitting out in front of the motel with the other guy.
No, the husband?
What's your husband saying?
Who are her?
How's it going?
You're having fun, cheating?
Wow.
Is that the exact same thing he said the last one said?
Yeah.
Having fun cheating?
Yeah.
Well, yeah, otherwise I wouldn't be doing it.
Got a lot of the line here.
The sex is terrible.
It's like they're trying to mix the storylines from those trashy romance novels used to see at the front of a supermarket or something with Fabio on the cover with the vibe and the lore of the murder porn true crime podcast that females love.
So they're trying to mix that back together.
It's like it feels like a true crime thing, but it's really the story of jealousy and no one ever died.
No one gets beat up.
Yeah, they're overselling it.
It's like, War of the Roses is fine.
You know, you talk to some chick
and she yells at her husband
for a little while.
And you're like, all right, that was satisfying.
But it's not this.
Whatever they're trying,
let's watch one more example.
I've watched these yet.
Whatever this is,
that's not what War of the Roses is.
I don't know how you consistently piss me off.
You're running your mouth, babe.
You're such a know it all.
This is just a mute.
music. This is what happened.
Because I think there was only eight episodes
and then they scrub the thing.
The first few trailers are them
highlights of the call
giving you the gist or whatever. Then they
realize that's not working. So let's just
animate it like a music video
with a song about a girl who's been wronged.
And then you get the last two trailers
are like this.
It's been eight months
since I've been able to go out.
He's locked me inside the room.
I found him cheating and he won't let me.
leave the house.
That's the bottom line right there.
Oh, my goodness.
And here we go.
Hello.
Hi.
If that were true, wouldn't you call the police and not a radio show?
I'm being held captive right now.
Like, would that be?
You get one call.
You get one call.
All right.
I want to call Scott Todd.
My name is Marie.
And I'm calling me to let you know that we are delivering a dozen long stem roses.
Listen, I don't want anything delivered to my house unless I'm there.
I have to be there.
And what about your wife, Connie?
God, okay.
Well, they finally got to the fucking meat event
where it's just being a roses delivered
to a house.
Connie?
Roses?
This war of the roses call
led to busting open
a worldwide human trafficking ring.
Right.
That's what they're trying to make it seem like.
It's like, yeah, you're overselling it.
When people actually watch this,
they're going to think it sucks.
Yeah.
So, yeah, this bit has been around forever.
It's terrible.
The fun part was that trying to find the episodes and then realizing I had no idea they scrubbed the channel and you can't find the episodes anywhere anymore.
You just have the trailers, but that's it.
This thing that they spent, it looks like they spent, you know, a million or something dollars on this thing to get this all produced and ready and done for not, another waste of money for radio.
I dropped the ball because E. Rock gave me a heads up on this.
I could have grabbed these and we could have shown them and now they're gone forever.
So that's my fault.
I'll never make that mistake again.
Next time, Eric says me something, I'll be like, this is probably going to go away any minute now.
Let me grab it immediately.
I, but who could have predicted they would scrap the whole thing?
That's ridiculous.
And every time a new episode went up, it barely broke 300 views.
You know what, though?
All right, so you probably already done your due diligence on this.
But what happens a lot with these companies is they're pushing this out to all their different platforms.
There's probably a Facebook page.
or a rumble page,
might not rumble,
but, you know,
there's something out there
that has all these videos
that people forgot
to scrub it from.
The dot com,
oh, no, yeah, you're right.
The dot com just goes
to the YouTube link.
There's no web page,
no middle section where,
like, I went to look for that too.
It's got to be embedded somewhere
that I could rip it off a website.
It was nothing.
All right.
Well, I have a quick update for us
on our mutual friend.
You're the mad, for the man.
You probably saw a recent video where the op-gifted his Rip Van Winkle bourbon
in order to be friends with Matt at Gevhards.
Yeah.
And did it live on the show and talked about how it's a $1,200 bottle of bourbon.
Because he looked it up.
This is the first time he's done it.
It's not the first time he's out of it.
In fact,
Apeshit Media sent this TV.
You'll remember this.
He says,
yeah,
listen to an old Opey and Anthony clip
and I hope we did the exact same thing with Dr.
Steve.
Dr. Steve,
yeah.
And here it is.
Dr. Steve sent me a very nice gift of
chocolates and things.
Yeah,
he's great.
It was very nice.
He's great.
Steve rules.
He sent me a really nice bottle of wine,
even though I made it very clear.
I don't drink wine anymore.
Oh.
Was it a nice bottle or one of this homemade bottle?
I went right to whine.com.
It was impressive what he spent.
Oh, yeah.
Wow.
No, actually, I do enjoy class here and there these days.
Thank you, Steve.
Alex, what's up?
So, yeah, Opie, no shame, and I went right to whine.com.
And that's not even the first, that might have been the first time he brought it up,
but there were other times Steve has sent stuff.
And he did it live on the air.
He pulled up the website or he had somebody pulled up the website, and he was scrolling
down.
He goes, well, this distributor is selling it for.
this and this one sell it like he was pricing it out anytime somebody gave him something he went
immediately online to look to judge how much uh how generous this gift was to him and uh he would act
accordingly based on how much the the bottle was he must be a joy on christmas oh god could you imagine
he's just out his phone looking up everything if he wasn't sitting there alone he's terrible
so yeah many christmas is ago when you're family right yeah good point he he always regift stuff like
he's notorious for it.
A long time ago,
there was a time when
everybody on the show was into that show
lost. You know, it was like the first
few seasons. We would bring it up.
We would talk about it. Jimmy used to hate watch it
and that made it funny because he would just explain
everything he hated about the show.
Everybody watched the show
except for him.
So we got him
the box set at the time
for the first season. Like here, just sit down
and watch it. I'm sure you'll like it. You can join the
rest of us in there. He re-gifted
it to somebody in his family.
What an asshole. And then we started having
all the people from the show on our
show had no idea,
wouldn't watch it. He purposely
will not do things if you ask him to do it
because he needs to be anti. He needs
to be the guy that doesn't follow the rule.
No, he's a lazy motherfucker who refuses to prep to the show.
We all know that. He's so lazy.
He came to watch a TV show. Everyone's enjoying
at the time. No, it sounds like show prep.
I'm off the clock. I don't want to
do that. But like in Jimmy
case, Jimmy was the exact reason why we didn't. We all liked the show until it really fell off, you know, the cliff. But Jimmy would watch it and hate it, but hate watch it. So he knew what to make fun of and he knew what to criticize because he watched it. Everybody watched it for whatever reason except for him. He regifted the box, the first season box set to somebody in his family. Then over the years, we started to see the thing where if alcohol or wine was being, he had to look it up. If a gift was brought to him, he had to look it up. If a gift was brought to him, he had to look it up.
on the phone and then while we've moved past that he'll find what he needed and then he'll say
so this thing was only $80 huh what they're already talking about something else he goes
that's crazy thing you you brought this could be a new show called War of the Bourbon
where Opie's wife is like hey I like bourbon I'm giving it to Matt what the up
maybe a better example be Rod the waiter oh yeah he needs it yes he's to forget about
life for a while
Schaffer said the uh this he says uh he sent in a fun free chat that opi decided to read
and uh it got opi a little bit upset and then there's a two dollar chat that scott sent in
this is from yesterday morning stream of the opi radio podcast and it's pretty fun the way he reacts
to this you get a deal you know it's the lesser of two evils i guess is what we're trying
to figure out right can't see him uh oh i know these the sun's behind
him so he's just a silhouette i know so scott shaffer says the guy walking around live streaming
being annoying now it's afu friday so or you know so it's like what annoys you so check this out uh
scott shaper your effu is uh the guy walking around live streaming being annoying oh that's me
isn't it scott clever what does he react this way it's a free chain doesn't put him on the
screen it doesn't there's no reason for you get so upset
I got some, I got some cash coming in.
JFK, do you think you and Ron would do okay in a studio?
Yeah, I guess.
I guess.
Yeah, absolutely.
And Scott also writes, oh, Scott, you're a hater.
Are you here to hate, Scott?
How many views does $2 buy?
There are people out there that are, they're so obsessed with me.
They think I buy views.
And I'm here to tell you, I've always.
always told the truth. I don't buy views. That's a lot. I think, I know. We're going to discuss
this. But I think one of the first times, Opies addressed this right here, where, oh, he's a
hate, how many views did you buy? So I'm curious what he thinks is going on. They think I buy
views. And I'm here to tell you, I've always told the truth. I don't buy views. I figured out a way
to get more views on my live stream. And it has nothing to do with buying views.
Then what is it?
If you were figured out a way to get more reviews and it wasn't buying them, when you explain yourself at this point?
Wouldn't this be a great tiny bag?
Actually, what I'm doing is.
And why doesn't, oh, sorry.
No, go ahead.
Why doesn't that translate?
He simulcasts his live stream between this and his Unleased channel.
Yep.
And look at the numbers on the Unleased channel.
They're barely in the hundreds.
Right.
But on his channel.
20 to 64,000 views depending on
on which video it is
of his life's only like 120 people watching
at any given time or maybe 80
and he'll say to Ron the waiter
while we have 30,000 views so far
in this video. I was like, there's 80 people watching.
How is that possible? Where is he seeing these numbers?
It's so bizarre.
Due with buying views.
Okay, so I hope I made that clear.
And you spent $2 on that?
Oh, God.
Don, uh, did, uh, did you, did you miss, uh, the weird news? Weird news. Uh, we don't have any weird news in the, in, uh, in the papers today.
Yeah, Opie, he's calling you scorch. Do you not, do you not get the joke there where he's, he's calling you?
Hey, where's the weird news segment.
Some are on and some deranged stories that are very strange. Weird news.
Hope he goes, no, there were no funny, weird stories of the paper today.
In the papers.
He had the papers.
So stupid.
And Mike Long just gives me $2.
And he's one of mine.
Mike Long,
he's not spending $2 to try to trash me.
He just gives me $2 and says,
just because,
L.O.L.
Thank you, Mike.
I love seeing you on this thing every fucking morning.
I love seeing my people.
All right, guys, I got to go.
I'm turtling.
You know, usually I got to go
because I want to, you know,
be there for my kids in the morning.
But I'm going to be honest with you.
What takes precedent today.
is I got to leave this live stream
because I've been turtling for the last
40 minutes. Have a wonderful
Friday. Bye.
So that's interesting. He's in the
Depend stage of his life.
That could be true. Notice
how he's like, oh, you gave me $2 for
that. And then he reads another shitty thing.
Oh, $2. It's like, hey, this guy likes me. Give me two bucks.
Thanks. That's pretty cool.
So one out of three
was a guy who I think
enjoys Opie. And Opie had to
point that out. I see this
guy every morning. He's great. He's one of mine. He's one of my guys on here. That's what
Steeltoe does. Yes. If you send him, you could send five bucks and shit all over him and he'll have
to sit there and lecture you about how you don't know anything, but you could also send five bucks
and it's like, you know, keep your head up. He's like, see, he's one of the good guys. He gets it.
He's smart. But does that encourage more positive responses or more negative? Because I would
think that the fact that he complains every time he pulls up one of these $2 super chats,
that makes fun of them or asking about buying views and stuff,
that it only encourages more people to do that.
Like, oh, he responds very negatively to this.
All right, cool.
I'm going to do that, too.
Yeah, there's been breakdowns in the comments.
And during his life, I've been popping in there a lot lately just to see.
And they're giving time estimates about what the viewer count will be for the video.
They're like 20,000 by 10 a.m.
And then 1115, it'll be that, like they're mapping the breakdowns of how the
increments of views will be purchased.
just for each live stream he's doing.
That's hilarious.
I love that people are getting into that because it takes a long time for open to acknowledge things that are happening.
Oh, yeah.
He'll ignore them forever.
He'll ignore WATP for years.
And so now people are talking about it so much.
He's like, oh, you guys talk about me buying views.
Like, now he has to give it to it, which is funny.
Guys, we're celebrating Jocktober.
I'm not done celebrating yet.
I want to talk about Brooke and Jeffrey.
And this Jeffrey guy is a character.
He likes to sing parody songs on his rations.
radio show, and they're up in Seattle.
So you got this guy, Cal Riley.
Familiar with this guy?
60 home run season.
Go out the big ass.
Yeah.
So they're excited about that because they're Mariners fans.
And we have a hilarious parody song.
Good golly, Cal Riley.
And I know I probably shouldn't be saying this on the radio right now, but in the
eloquent words of Cal Raleigh himself.
Say it.
Say it.
Why not just win the whole fucking thing?
Yes.
So good golly, cowlory, he's short-crossed the ball.
A good-golly, cow raleigh, slug it over that wall, watch him run around the bases.
Rump's dick is Butterball.
He's a swinging and a smiling, knocking baseball's out of sight, 60 homers on the season,
what's he going to do tonight?
Good golly, Cali, Cali.
So not a joke to be had.
The only one was the Butterball reference.
because he's got a big ass.
Other than that, it's just like he's swinging the bend
and baseball's fire.
This dude is fucking corny.
It sucks so bad.
Snacket way to Nepal.
Home runs and leave it all in.
With Rick Riz on the call.
With Rick Riz on the call
when we're calling out the play-by-play guy?
Holy shit.
This is a stretch.
All the pictures are shaking as he steps up to the plate.
Like Tom Brady with the football got the ice.
Like Tom Brady with the football got the Astros to deflate.
A little shoehorn.
There's a lot of syllables in there, wasn't it?
She really tried to keep up with the tempo on that one.
Got his bubblehead doll.
Baby Ruth has awoken.
Oh, there's a shoehorn.
Babe a Ruth has awoken.
Is that this the middle initial?
A?
Babe Ruth.
Baby Ruth.
His old wrecked
It's not to fall
Jose Dance Break
Hold on a second
When did Babe Bruce record fall
The 70s?
Was it a Hank Aaron
Who hit 61 to home runs
And then it's been broken
Many times since then
Well outdated reference
Goes with the outdated song
For this parody
So
Yeah that makes sense
Let's do a 50 song
Almost you know
70 something years
removed from when that song
came out
Why not do anything
relevant to what your audience would know
for a parody song.
And it's already broken the rule.
Sorry.
It was already broken the rule of
should be first verse,
chorus,
that's it.
You don't need to do
what is that?
Two and a half minutes of this.
It's worse than that,
E. Rock,
because the instrumental break,
they kept intact.
No.
And now they just go around
and dance.
Remember,
this is a radio show.
This is a dance
TV.
This is a dance live-a-dard show.
I might as well be.
Jose dance break
Go
A good
A good guy
A good garlic
Cal Raleigh
That dumper ain't small
A good guy
Galli Cal Raleigh
BBL not at all
Brazilian butt left reference, pretty good, edgy stuff.
By the way, Tom Myers used to hire these people
because they're just chuckle fucking wrong with everything this fact says.
This is what Tom Myers needs in the studio.
Tom needs to do parody songs.
Do you think he has musical talents?
I'd like to hear that.
I mean, he's having a great season.
He's going to be number two probably in the MVP behind Judge.
But like...
Okay.
The Yankees fan has to make that point real quick.
But he's having an incredible season.
All they keep talking about is his ass.
Right, yeah.
This is not for sophisticated baseball fans, obviously.
Unlike Alexis' die jump, his butt's unnatural.
Hi, it's a kid.
Well, his helper was his coach.
Oh, yeah, it's in his DNA.
He will leave an upper decker, but not in the toilet way.
The golly cowl it's falling.
Whoa.
Upper Decker reference.
All right, I take it all back.
These guys aren't edgy.
It gets a little blue.
Yeah, wow.
Turn off the wrong.
radio up to you driving the kids to school. I'm talking about
Upper Duckers over here. Kids, earmuffs.
Earmuffs.
Earmuffs.
Got the fans all in the road.
Won't he bring that MVP home?
Come and take a curtain call.
Oh.
It's calling the MVP on this, Mike.
What do you think about that?
Mike does not seem abused.
Mike is not amused by this.
All right.
Well, I think the best part of that is the lady with the glasses, the old lady that they can't
get rid of to keep a younger audience um she doesn't know what to do nor wants to be a part of it when
they cut to her she's like uh-huh like it's an effort for her to try to go along with this
that's what you call a paycheck this woman is there because it is a paycheck and she'll stay
there as long as she can i believe that's uh brook right of the brook and jeffrey show probably
they're a syndicated show by the way oh well it's good that they're doing mariner's references
then.
Yeah, that's what I was trying.
When I saw that clip,
I was like,
I think they're in other markets.
I go,
it's like,
yes,
let's be specific to the town that we're in
or the city
that we're broadcasting from
because other cities
audiences love hearing that.
Yeah,
I live in Tucson.
I don't know who you're
play-by-play guy is.
Yeah.
Listen to the games.
I'm sorry.
This is a video for you,
E. Rock.
I'm glad that you're here with us.
Because I don't know if you've seen this.
Are you familiar with a guy
named Pulper?
I don't think so
All right
So I'll play a little bit of this
And then I'll explain what's going on guys
There's a whole backstory here
Okay
Much attention in the past
Because
Hey EROC
This is Pulper
I know that you have not given me
Much attention in the past
Because you probably thought that
Like oh this guy's just a troll
But I mean
Of course I do troll
stuff and jokes and stuff. But, Eeroch,
I want to meet you.
I think that you and I are really
very similar.
We both like toys. Look,
I have so many toys, and I bought them
for you. Look, look, here's this one.
And then there's this orange
one here. And then up here,
I have a yellow one. And then there's
motorcycles, too. And I...
This guy's buying toys for you, Eric. You're not paying any
attention to them at all?
I guess.
I'm more distracted by his terrible
pajama pants but other than that um i can't tell if this is uh real okay so let me tell you who
this guy is because he reached out to me a few months ago and said hey man uh i had a terminal
illness and you your show and some of the other shows in the devilverse got me through it and i want
to repay you because i spent i don't know how long it was four months in the hospital or something
he's like the only thing i had to look forward to is listen to your guy's shows and so i want to
have a party in Vegas.
And he wanted me and Rocco and Patrick Melton and the guy from 1 by 2, Blade, and a few other people to all go to Vegas.
He's like, I'll pay you to hang out with me.
We'll spend a weekend in Vegas.
And I said, well, you'll have to pay me to hang out with you, but I'm not going to pay for my own flight in hotel room.
And he immediately sent me money in PayPal to party with him in Vegas.
Jesus.
Since that has happened, he's kind of gone to radio silent.
And, you know, I messaged with, like, Rocco and Patrick and stuff.
I'm like, what's going on with this party we're doing in Vegas?
I'm looking forward to going out there.
And I even emailed him recently, and I didn't get any response.
Apparently, it's supposed to be happening next weekend is when he's already got these
sweets rented at the Venetian, and we're all supposed to be hanging out.
He's got these sweets that, two sweets, each of them sleeps eight people.
Now, there's speculation that because he has a terminal illness,
and he seems to be losing his mind that this could be like a Jonestown massacre type of thing
where we all show up and I like Kool-Aid, you know, I'll drink whatever you give me.
That's been my experience with life.
I just say yes to things and go along, which I'm like, that's how Villaroma happened.
Sure, let's deal.
Let's see what happens.
So I don't know.
This could be one of my last podcasts.
I'm so waiting for Pulper to get back to me.
But he seems like he's on the up and up.
No, honestly, they were playing this on B-Dabbler this morning.
and Pulper sent it a $100 super tip
and said, I'm not going to hurt anyone.
I'm not hurting myself or anyone else.
The toys are safe.
Yeah, so I think we're going to be good.
Left them in the box.
I know how you like to leave stuff in the box.
And this one, I did take out of the box,
but it's okay.
It's pretty good on a standby and so you could put it on top of the box then.
And then there's...
These are the kind of toys that you like are that E.
Uh, I, no, I don't have anything to do with cars or motorcycles, but I'm not saying no.
Okay, you know, yeah, yeah, I'm entertaining this.
Sure, okay.
There's more box ones.
Like, look, this is like some sort of Kawasaki ninja, I think.
And you like ninjas.
Um, so, uh, and I know you like video games.
And I like video games too.
Um, see, I have a, I have a switch.
I have two switches.
And then I like retro stuff.
And, and you also like retro stuff.
See, there's, remember Street Fighter?
I play this a lot.
And whenever I play E-Honda, I think of unicorns that run around and make people happy.
So, and then here's Dragon Warrior.
We're all Warriors of the Dragon.
That's who we were born to be, as the Warriors of the Dragon.
So we can hang out.
I want you to come to my Vegas party because I'm throwing a party in October for all the comedians
who made me laugh.
when I was in the hospital and I was in really bad shape and but you made me laugh too um just like
all the other guys um kind of like all the other guys but but you did make
well not really but that was it all delivered yeah who canceled that he's trying he already
paid for that he's like well I'll just have I got to put somebody else in that so I bet you'd
find an email or two from this guy if you looked through your inbox I don't feel like he reached
out to you I this is the first I'm hearing of it but I would
Gladly look now.
All right.
Do you want to hang out in Vegas with me next weekend?
With this guy?
If he's paying for it.
Okay, see?
All right.
We're all on the same page here.
Why not?
Although, Eric, you have a family.
I don't know.
I don't know if you should be doing this kind of thing.
Well, they're not fun.
So, you know, I like to go out and do fun things.
He said, yes, Carl.
Jesus.
And I know that you need a health so we can eat healthy meals.
We can have our vitamins.
He's got you confused with someone else.
Never mind.
As soon as I hit Vegas, I'm going to In-N-Out and White Castle.
I'm doing the Rocco tour.
Yes.
God, that White Castle is so fucking overrated.
It's an hour-long line to get a burger there that gives you diarrhea.
Well, I didn't eat any of the burger, so I don't know.
But that is what was reported back to me.
Allegedly.
I don't know.
I don't know what's going out over there.
All right.
Well, I'm pumped to be on the last WATP.
Oh, well, yeah.
Yeah, right.
The last ever weekend episode of WATP, glad you'd be here, MLP.
Guys, this is the producer Chris show.
Welcome.
Dude, I think this will make national news if he takes out a bunch of us podcasters all at once and himself.
We all show up there, right?
It's like a banquet style, like from one of the godfathers.
And then a helicopter just shows up at this big bay window and it's stuttering John.
And he just picks all of us out.
This is going to make news.
This is very exciting.
Speaking of Stuttering John.
Happy birthday, Stuttering John.
He's 60 years young today, October 4th, 2025.
And he's got his Gryftathon going.
he was going to have
he let this out of the bag yesterday
because he was talking about having a special guest on
for his big birthday show
it was going to be Lardiff
I was going to say Cardiff
Lardif
same guy
was going to be given the invite
and John was contemplating it
and then he went
I don't know that guy's been a real jerk
to be over the years
he has to mull it over
Yeah he literally
he literally goes
I thought about it like
nah not wait a minute
this guy's a jerk
I'm going to forget about that.
So, John's birthday today, of course, he's trying to get as much money as he can for his birthday.
And then he claims this is his last ever podcast.
It'll go off the air again.
Doesn't sound like you're buying.
I tell his channel's about to be demonetized and he'll show back up again.
Yep.
Doesn't sound like people are buying this.
Or Monday.
Well, as you guys know, I'm involved.
in a very frivolous lull suit with Suttering John right now,
as is my buddy Shulie Agar from the Uncle Rico show.
And they did something fantastic last night on the Uncle Rico show.
They had Anthony Kumia on, and they were promoting our GoFundMe,
which you can find it's Fight the Dabbler.com.
This is our GoFundMe, and it's cranking right now.
We appreciate that.
We're up to over $17,000 raised for our legal fee.
Oh, shit.
This is crazy.
All right.
We have a competition.
going on right now that's that's very exciting so anthony kumia put in a thousand dollars last night
during the show and then dan varnie put in a thousand bucks dr steve decided that one up them
just earlier today with a thousand one and now dan varnie is at one thousand and two dollars
amazing thank you guys for doing that uh josh johnson christian sly look at this
tom r put in 350 dr c put in 351 chris put in three fifty one chris put in
352.
Well done.
I love the competition.
I donate it as well, but not that much because I really don't care what happens with this lawsuit either way.
I was on top for almost a whole day.
That's amazing.
Thank you, Chris.
Appreciate it.
Robert Buy a Gitch, $300 bucks.
Brian Kowalchik, $250, David Clements, David Woolman, Sarah Hills.
A. Lang, Arty Lang, gave us $200.
That's nice.
Matthew Nicholson, Tom Wauditsky, Todd Woditsky, Susan Schmidt, some anonymous coming in.
So thank you all who have contributed to this.
We've had over 260 donations already coming into the GoFundMe.
No one's going to dare top Dan Varnie.
They wouldn't dare.
No, that would be rude.
Yeah.
No one would think that's going to happen for sure.
So this was great.
And also thanks to Dave Daffler, who's.
said that last night he would match any donation that came in, which really got people
donating, contributing. So thank you very much for that, Dave. And everyone has contributed
so far, no matter how much you've contributed, it's helped. We are getting sued by
Suttering John. And so Anthony Coomia on the Uncle Rico show last night was talking about
how he wanted Suttering John to sue him. And Anthony tweeted out to the Cape Coral Police
that John drives drunk on Sundays. And he tagged the Cape Coral Police in this post.
The reason why he did that is because John has been tweeting at W.A.B.C. and saying that Anthony's racist and he should be fired.
So John's trying to get Anthony fired from his radio job. And in return, Anthony's pretending he's trying to get John arrested for driving drunk.
Now, it's so ludicrous and ridiculous. You can't tweet at a police department and tell them to pull people over.
Yeah. It's just not how that works. But John got very upset about this, as we'll see.
coming up but first i wanted to show you anthony on with um shulian the gang last night talking
about wanting to get sued law license that i swear to you if a a process server comes here
to serve me with the john melinda's uh subpoena or a fucking lawsuit or anything i will invite him
in we'll drink we'll sing karaoke yeah i i will have so much fun
with this guy because it will be the beginning of the greatest fucking segment of now of the
dabble verse that i'm involved in please john please sue me i'm begging you to sue me i know can i
just suggest something i know how john works john how much does coomia have to pay you for you
to sue him what's the number right let me try john if you
don't you're a pussy boy
oh by the way
even if he sues me
I'll still pay for his law school
if he's not the kind of guy
are you
defamation is the act of harming
someone's reputation by making a false statement
of fact about them it can be written
so now they're pulling up clips from
John show on Thursday and he's
talking about suing Anthony for defamation
and of course he goes to
Google Gemini or whatever
the AI thing is here
to read what defamation is
as if no one knows about this
right what's this defamation thing you're talking about
so they're having a laugh at this
because John doesn't realize that you can't
harm his reputation
more than he has harmed it
to prove defamation
must be false
to a third party
a k a Twitter
and caused damage to the press for reputation
yes he's trying to get
pulled over i got news for you when you go out of your way to cut the sleeves off your shirts you have
no reputation that can be damaged all right it's all you're already damaged that's great i'm trying
to get him pulled over that that isn't even a thing if you're weaving over the double yellow
if you're not stopping for a stop sign or a stop line they will pull you over for being drunk if
Someone saw what I said, which is, this is John Melendez.
He drives drunk, especially on Sunday.
And they see the plate and the car and go, oh, for some reason, I'm an Anthony Coombea fan.
I've seen what he said.
Let me put my lights on, pull this guy over, and see what it's all about.
Is that me?
I don't think that's me.
If you're sober, what do you have to worry about?
but you're fucking drunk you drive drunk john yeah not to mention you know you still have to be
drunk once you get pulled over so he may be right like he may be the first guy to ever get
a DUI and then sue you for getting him pulled over while he was drunk surely there was a
there was a new year's eve all right so he goes into a time he was trying to get pulled over
is sober. That's exactly what I was thinking. It's like John gets pulled over from his own accord.
And then he sues Anthony while he's undergoing, you know, jail time and everything else for his,
DWI. No, no, I never would have been caught driving drunk had Anthony not ratted me out to the police.
Oh, he'd be complaining to the police while he's doing the field sobriety test. Oh, yeah. But can you put one
foot in front of the other? I could, but Anthony got me pulled over and I would sue him.
The way John's acting in that little clip there,
John's probably thinking like,
oh, they're going to set up a speed trap
or they're going to be tailing him,
like, you know, Henry Hill in Goodfellas.
Helicopters are going to be following John down the interstate.
He's looking around.
So Anthony's really trying to antagonize him on the show.
Do.
No.
I think he's drunk every second he drives.
There you go.
Put that in the fucking lawsuit.
So, so, because John's going,
I don't drive drunk.
I've never drive drunk, all this shit.
And so Anthony goes, you know what?
Maybe just saying he drives drunk isn't enough to get a lawsuit.
Maybe I'll take it a little bit further.
Which was harm to reputation.
The statement damage to person's...
Good luck proving that.
This guy pursue it one time.
It's amazing.
John, please, please.
I beg you.
I won more than anything.
for you to fucking sue me please there are people that they do not want to work this is their
career path is to find a case find some sort of lawsuit get some sort of company up against the
ropes and have them settle and they get a payday and and that's their game this is his dream job
is to win a court case to win money in the court yeah this is john's version of slipping in
supermarket. Yeah. I'm going to post. I'm going to post on my Twitter, which has a
fuckload of followers. I'm going to post. And this has nothing to do with you or this show.
This is my personal, what I'm saying, I'm going to post on that is that John Melendez raped
a woman in Las Vegas. That's, there it is. I know this for fact. I'm posting it.
And that's the fact now.
And now it's true.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
John, balls in your court, I guess.
Balls in your court, motherfucker.
Sue me, you dumb fucking retard.
Well said.
Wow.
Yeah.
So, Anthony's coming in guns and blaze, and he's looking for a lawsuit.
He wants to get out of the action.
Anthony's very indifferent on most of things in life.
Like, he has very few things that he's extremely.
passionate about. I'm glad to see him diversify his portfolio and finding new channels and new
things to enjoy life more. I agree. I agree. It's not all about just black people. There's other
things in the world to be angry with. He'll find a way to make it that way. But in the time being,
we'll enjoy this. Okay. So they were responding to what John was saying on Thursday. On Friday morning,
it's Clay Day. John has his buddy Clay Dabbler on the show. And John talks about how I can't
believe Anthony would say I drive drunk when I don't drive drunk and watch Clay's reaction here.
No, but when it's defamatory, then it becomes a problem. It's like when Pocky tweets to the
Kid Coral Police Department and says that I first used that video and says that I was speeding,
which I wasn't, and then says that I always drive drunk, that's defamatory. There's no proof of that.
not an iota
so if you say that
shit then sorry
then you're fucking
you know that's defamming me
because I never drive junk
well sure
I never die
I never drank drunk
yeah yeah sure
it's the fucking elephant thing
but Carl that's defanning him
defaning him yes
defanting the flames
the other fun thing too
is if I'm remembering correctly
remember when Cardiff got the body cam
footage of him getting pulled over
I think there was something in there
where John wasn't making any sense
where the cop was suspicious
goes do we need to take a sobriety test
and John's like no no I'm fine
and the cop gave him the benefit of the doubt
but there was already suspicion
there that the cops like this guy
might be under the influence
pull him out of the car no shit right
the way that John was behaving I think oh this guy's
wasted, especially
in Cave Coral.
Do you know my cop friend in Tampa?
Yeah, I'm talking, no, he didn't even say Tampa.
He just goes, I'm talking to my cop friend.
Do you know him?
And the guy just went, like, all right, here's your ticket, sir.
The other thing, too, was he gave the registration to a Toyota, a 2014 Toyota.
He goes, he goes, this is a 2014 Toyota.
Oh, that's not it.
Maybe it's in my trunk.
He's like, I don't worry about it.
Why would you have a registration of your trunk?
That's a lot of leeway.
You gave a lot of leeway to that guy.
I think the cop was, his shift was,
He was trying to get back to the station, call it a day.
I got to get away for this guy.
He smells terrible.
Yeah, there's that also that.
All right, so I pulled clips from yesterday morning show with Clay Dabbler.
But before we get into that, because there's a lot of interesting things that are sad.
Adam Bush sent this to me.
Adam texted me this video clip.
And I think that John is not understanding which of the host of WATP do this specific thing that he's complaining about.
Here, let's broadcast like Lady Kay, okay?
You ready?
So, anyway, I'm hanging out.
Today, I got up, I did do some stuff on some matters that I don't discuss.
And then I got that done.
Hitman Dan had to borrow my car to go to Lowe's to fix his bathroom.
And then he showed up late here.
I told him to get here between one and two,
and he got here at two.
Two or one, actually.
So then I had to get to the gym,
almost passed out at the gym,
came home to the shower,
had to eat something.
Because I only ate one McDonald's hamburger,
a few fries yesterday,
and then some lentil soup
with some soup crackers last night.
And a couple of winter green lightsabors.
That's a lot of.
how does fucking idiot broadcasts he looks to decide and he thinks he's a fucking pro
so that's the crazy thing about this first off he was actually saying what he was going
to say on his show i thought the thing that he was making fun of me was for telling mundane details
of my life i don't do any of those things there's a lot of details there's a lot of details
that he was going through about how much of the mcdonald he ate and everything like that i
never talked about anything like that i talk about the cubs but i shut that down pretty quickly
that I'm very good but his whole thing is I don't talk into a microphone is that the critique no it's
that you're not looking at the camera like we are right here because you're broadcasting yeah he
doesn't do any prep doesn't do any of that stuff you're looking at your monitor getting your
clips ready your stuff your your notes whatever so that you can talk I can't do any of that
crazy thing Eric that John will never experience I look at the other people in my room with me
I actually have people in the studio that I can look over to while I'm broadcasts.
It's crazy.
But you're not looking at him.
This is about him.
You're not looking at him and addressing him sitting in his filth in his home.
You're not acknowledging that he's watching you.
That's a weird critique.
I'm not used to that one.
Oh, I'm in trouble because I've been staring at you the whole time.
I know.
It's very fascinating to watch me work on this show.
Where's that leg going under the table?
Hey, oh.
All right.
I'm ticker much.
Stop it.
Stop it already.
I thought it was Cocktover.
It's not Cocktover.
I know we started with the Howard Stern show today.
We're doing Jocktober over here.
All right.
So I lied.
John does have a friend over.
And he's very excited.
Now, this is from yesterday the day before his birthday.
And so Hitman Dan is in town to celebrate his birthday with him.
And immediately when John starts up his stream, he's got to prove that he has a friend.
He has to bring him in like a show and tell.
Hey, Dan, say hi there, everybody.
Daniel
Say hi, Daniel
Hello, what's happening?
Every Friday, everybody
Oh, yeah, Danny
Dan, yeah, I want to say, you want to
So, this one guy, look this guy, no superchats
You see this guy right here?
Oh, don't super chat, what a fucking
What a pussy
You know, it's fucking, oh,
don't send them any super
chats.
Fucking.
Aren't you amazed
by these fucking people?
I mean, Danny,
could you,
I mean, look at these assholes.
Like,
like,
I mean,
it's just not,
look,
and they all put L's in here.
Yeah.
It's fucking,
it is fucking crazy, right?
Well,
he invites Danny in
and then shows them
how everyone his chat hates him.
Look at this.
They're all like motherfucking me.
Can you believe
this daddy you gotta go on dad that's that's enough show and tell for now he's trying to goof on it but
he's legitimately mad because he's not getting super chats and actually feels by that guy saying
no super chats is uh influencing other people to not give him money oh yeah he hates that yeah
pisses him off he's trying to pretend like oh i just play this off i got all my friends here
i was having a great time i do enjoy for the last few weeks that el thing really does bother
him then he has to keep saying it in every stream that he does oh look there's all the else
that's why they're doing it because you will mention it.
Well, he tried to own it by saying it's for love.
L for love.
He's like, if I just tell them they're saying they love me, then they'll stop doing it.
That didn't work.
Put L and then parentheses not for love.
Yeah, right.
El meaning loser.
You're a fucking loser.
All right, so Danny comes in to say hi, but then it's time to put him back to work
because if Danny's going to be over at John's house, he needs to be working on stuff.
But before that, John cracks himself up with this little cute joke.
It's fucking, hey, your son turns 18 tomorrow.
I turn 50.
Looking good.
You're looking good for 50, my man.
You're looking.
John's turning 60.
And look at the look that he gives to hitman Dan where he says, I'm turning 50.
And he's so proud of himself with this.
I turn 50.
Looking good.
You're looking good for 50, my man.
You're looking good for 50.
Thanks, Dean.
Yeah, if you want to put that Forrest Gump up, you know.
Thanks, Jay, Warren.
I will find it right now.
It don't matter.
Just saying, you know.
Enjoy yourself.
And then we'll go out and grab some beer.
Scowl.
So John caught himself.
I was like, hey, you want to put up that Forrest Gump poster for me?
And then he's like, enjoy yourself.
He's literally putting this guy to work.
All right, I'm going to do my important podcast thing that I do.
Carl, how much are you seething that he's not on the mic?
I'm a fine with it.
Okay.
It's not the thing that bothers me about John.
It's more of the wall suit that I find annoying with John.
Yeah, he was turning his head and talking to his friend that whole time, wasn't it?
He does this.
It shouldn't bother me as much as it does, but he's one of those people that when they're trying to be the center of attention, I'm the funny guy, I'm the witty guy, has to lead you into the laugh.
Like we've all seen when he starts wheezing into the laugh to show you this is where you laugh at what I said.
but just right there he makes the comment and then goes like he looks around so that makes eye contacts like you know that was the joke right or he's the guy if he was in the area with it he'd be tapping you on the shoulder right right yeah like that it's like fucking die just just just leave so obnoxious yeah all right so then clay dabbler comes on the show and he's like oh I have a friend and I have another friend I got to get these two people to acknowledge that I both them should know I have a friend other than them
Hey, Dan, say hi to Clay Dabler.
Dan, the man.
Come on me and say Dray Dabler, Danny.
No, I
this is one of my most,
this is one of my most loyal guests, Dan.
It's just weird for it that wears a mask.
He's in England, Danny.
Maybe we'll go across the pond.
Yes, he's in England,
but he likes to smoke weed.
And he likes to drink his pints.
Oh, yeah.
God.
What's happening, Danny, boy?
This is so awkward.
Get back in here.
He just dismissed him.
Brings on Clay.
Oh, get back in here, man, Dan.
You got to say hi to Clay.
And what are these two supposed to talk about?
How great John is.
Well, yeah, I think so.
Wow, you know John.
You know John longer than I've known John.
That's so cool.
It must be amazing.
And, of course, John has to brag to Clay, his new friend,
about a cool him and his old friend, Dan, have been.
yeah there you go if you only clay if you only knew the shit that danny and i did i mean in our lives
it's fucking unheard of it's literally unheard of i don't think i'll tell you one boy's
this is a funny one but it's not really that funny
classic classic suttering job that's like that clip that um the riko show uses now and then for
the interstitials. It's like, I don't really care, but I do. I do care. He does that all the time.
He cancels out the statement he just made. You won't believe what we were getting up to when we were
younger. And Clay's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. I've heard your stupid stories. It's like, no,
no, no, you don't even know. It's unheard of how crazy we are. And I love the way that Clay leaves
this dumb conversations he's having with hitman Dan. It's very telling.
Take it. Have a good evening, mate. Look off the
John, he needs good friends.
So, so, yeah, well, Danny's a loyal, loyal motherfucker.
Yeah, well, I said he's like a bro.
I, I pity the fool that picks a fight with Danny.
A funny.
Well, we've been fighting, Dan, Dan, Dan, Dan, yeah.
We've been fighting to do like seven years old, no?
He's like, is he, uh, should he leave or should he stay with you?
He keeps yelling over to Dan.
Do you want this poster of or not?
You're right.
It's like, you put me to work.
somebody to come back and I don't know what to do it was he said I pity the guy that would have to
mess with then wasn't he the guy that was limping on a cane that showed up at chuli show yeah
like a nice a quick trip and he's down on the ground you already took him out yeah this is the old
man with the cane who goes if you know what's best for you stop talking about john
what who are you i was going to say immediately but he kind of slow
walked out of the establishment.
Did you hear what Clay said at the beginning there?
He's like, hey, look after John.
He needs good friends.
Yeah.
Clay knows what a lonely loser, John is.
Which is why Clay will never give him contact information.
Like, John's always asking for Clay's phone number.
Clay knows.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I don't need to be the guy that you have to talk on the phone with for an hour because
you're lonely and drunk.
Especially with the time change, too.
Right.
He would call before him and not know.
John would have no idea what time it was there or care.
Yeah, he never understands how any of that works.
So you guys ready to hear John's big story?
Oh, no, before we do that, actually.
So I mentioned that John put Dan to work,
and someone in the chat later on brings that up.
How many chores did you have for Dan to do today?
Look, don't you worry about it.
Danny and I do favors for each other all day.
Ew.
Ain't that right, Dan?
Ain't there?
He's constantly yelling to dance.
Like, should I just hang out with you in this room?
What's going on?
Wow, what kind of favors were you thinking there, E. Rock?
I thought you said we weren't doing cocktail stuff.
Yeah, I know, right?
They're both lonely guys.
Dan's married, but he's not hitting that.
They're not in that free show.
They're both, you know, hammered late at night, well, late like 9.30.
They're sitting on the couch together, watching some free movie on Tubey.
and he just kind of, well, maybe, and he just, you know, grabs his hand, puts him in his lap.
Maybe.
I'll try anything thrice.
Yeah, we find out that Dan fixed, like, a door for John.
We've just been doing work around the house this whole time that he's been over there.
But they're doing favors for each other, which is great.
These doors make me look short.
Can you fix that?
He walks through the equivalent of the pet door for the real door.
That's hilarious.
all right so you guys wanted to hear john's big story he goes you won't believe what we got up to
it's unheard of and he's like ah maybe i should tell you no all right i will tell you
all right so we so we're driving down syracuse avenue and i'm doing like 40 50 you know
it's like a side street cruising yes and like almost at the end there's this main
thoroughfare called broadway so so like
it's that's where all the traffic
both ways are with traffic lights and everything
so we're driving
down Syracuse
and we fucking
he's putting in my
ID so I'm looking at him
and I'm driving at 40
you know so I would go back and forth
and suddenly we go
form like in vacation
and we jump
yeah we jump
and then land
and we're like boom
And we're like, at the same time, both turn around.
What the fuck was that?
We jumped Broadway.
So it was like, it had like a hump.
So we literally went airborne.
So what was it?
So reckless driving?
We missed all the broads.
Reckless driving is a thing that, uh, it's unheard of.
I was 17 once.
Mm-hmm.
It was up to some reckless driving.
He didn't drunk drive then.
He didn't drunk drive now.
No.
But he's jumping.
He's dukes ahead.
hazarding over Broadway, apparently.
That was the big crazy story.
And, I mean, props to Clay, like, he entertains it.
And he's just like, yeah, I mean, I have stories, too, from when I was young.
That's not really unheard of.
Yeah.
It's pretty heard of, actually.
It's been heard.
Not that impressive.
Quick update on what's going on with John's birthday stream that's happening right now.
Flashy Vick says John's current birthday show disaster might be breaking him.
John had to scrap one stream because of one of his guests leaked the link on Twitter.
and run it.
Whoops.
Yep, that was the one that Kinky Loco posted in our Discord here.
He set up another two simultaneously, which both lasted a second before finally getting one
up.
Oh, no.
That's our Johnny boy.
Oh, he's having a hard time getting one up.
Yeah, and that's important because it's his birthday.
He wants to get one up really badly on his birthday.
He was really counting on today to be a big payday for him.
I'm sure.
I'm sure it'll do well.
I'm sure it'll be good.
Well, so that story didn't go over so well, so then John decides, oh, I'll tell another
story. I'll just keep the stories coming.
The door opened and he runs down a block
to his house.
I was not
there. Yeah, we did crazy
shit when I was a kid as well.
And then I'll give you one more just to make
a drink.
So John's telling the story. We don't know the characters.
We don't care. And even
Clay's just like, yeah, I guess you had to be there.
Sounds crazy, man. Wow. Cool. Good stuff.
And this is a
very uncomfortable conversation.
that happens because John's turning 60 and Clay's like, did you think he'd be a granddad by
now?
You know, he's got, all of his kids are old enough that they would be potentially procreating
at this point.
John does not like this conversation at all.
And I just lost my, I just lost my screen.
Give me one second.
Did you put that up, E. Rock?
Oh, that, yeah, because that showed up in my timeline one day.
And I haven't laughed that hard at the John thing in a long time.
And I was like, I'm saving that one.
That's a fun one.
Spelling retarded on his forehead with the T in his forehead and his brow.
Yeah, his brow.
All right.
So this is a very uncomfortable conversation.
Still doing.
Did you think you'd be like a grandpa by now at 16?
Did you like, look, you know, when you're younger, you think 60's like grandparent.
I never really thought about, you know, I never thought about me to grandparent at all.
I mean, I don't anticipate that I'll ever be one, really.
But, yeah.
John and Clay all day.
Wow, John wanted to get out of that conversation.
Clay's wanted to keep talking about it.
And I was like, yeah, I don't know about that.
Anyway, this guy gave me five bucks.
Let's talk about that.
Clay should have reworded it.
He's like, you ever thought about being a dad at this age?
Right.
I mean, in John's mind, he's probably thinking I might be a grandparent.
I would know.
my kids wouldn't tell me
if that did happen
and it's also bizarre to say
he doesn't think it's going to happen
when his son Oscar is this
Harvard guy
who's going to make a shit ton of money
and be very successful in life
probably he used to talk about
what a ladies man he was
when he was younger
probably going to be
married to some hot piece of ass
likely to start a family
you would think
and John just knows
like I'll never see my grandkids
so let's not talk about it
that's crazy
Also, I'll be dead soon.
No, there's also that.
This is fun.
Someone brings up the amount of money that our GoFundMe had raised up into this point.
I remember, this is yesterday morning.
Things have changed quite a bit.
This is kind of funny.
These guys, could you imagine if I set up a GoFund me to pay my money?
Oh, is that what they got?
I don't really, it doesn't, I don't give shit.
All right, so Scooter Crunch has put $8,435.
as the chat.
And John immediately knew what that was
because he doesn't give a shit.
He's obviously not paying attention.
I wonder how you knew that was our go fund me right away.
He doesn't know what the L's in the chat mean,
but he knows that number exactly.
He does that number even though the number's moving all the time.
John don't need it.
But it is kind of like if I did that, oh,
it would be like, oh, man.
Oh, God, I can't believe it.
John doesn't have any money.
But they're now going to grift their audience
Even more so than begging for super chaps and super tips and whatever
This is what John's doing today
He's begging for super chats at the whole point of his birthday show
He's been building up for for weeks
John wants a pair of super chaps for his birthday
This is crazy
So John this fucking asshole goes
Because you imagine if I set up and go fund me
You're suing us
I didn't budget
hiring a very famous attorney
to fight off frivolous lawsuits
for this year. I wasn't part of my budget.
But here's the, here's a different
to what he's saying here, because he's so dumb.
He goes, imagine if I set that up,
yeah, because you would set that up
for yourself and everyone would shit on you.
You guys didn't set this up.
This is Dr. Steve grifting the audience
to help you guys out.
You guys didn't set this up.
That's the different.
He has nobody that would do this for him.
We're promoting this go for me.
that Dr. Steve wanted to set up for us because he also thought that this frivolous lawsuit is ridiculous.
John's attorney's already filed three versions of the complaint.
He got his name wrong.
He got his own name wrong.
There's so much fucking paperwork.
And for John to not understand the difference here.
And also, this number is now up to, well, let me hit a little refresher.
$17,394.
That's got up a lot since yesterday morning.
Thank you very much for your generosity, everybody.
Fight thedabler.com.
Do you think off air, he's yelling at Clay?
It's like, why don't you, no, start up a go-fund me for me?
Well, especially when he sees that number, that's what gets John upset more than anything else,
is seeing Shulie and me make money.
He fucking hates that, especially because it's because of him that we're making this money.
It's like people who want us to win and take John out with the anti-slap motion.
Do you think he's amending and getting ready to amend the lawsuit again that you're now
making money off the fact he's suing you.
And he should get some of that money.
Uh-oh, it's going to go from me $850,000 to $867,000.
Nope, no, $868,000.
Hold on, hold on, let's revise it again.
So it turns out that John actually did think about creating a go-fuddy for himself.
Oh, no.
I mean, like, I was even thinking about it, but I'm like, nah, you know, I'm not going to, you know,
it's so pathetic in my honesty.
Would you be embarrassed if you only got like 50 quid or something?
No, I would definitely get money.
I love Clay.
I love his low-key trolling.
He's like, yeah, would you be embarrassed?
You got like 50 bucks or something like that?
Because that is what would happen.
It would not, you know, he'd have Ditka 89 and maybe Vegas beer sales.
I'm telling you, behind the scenes, he's trying to convince somebody to set up one for him so that he can say,
I didn't set this up.
They did it.
And if it made a lot of money, great.
If it didn't, he could still pawn that off too and say,
I didn't set this up.
Look, it only made that much money.
That's not me.
I'm not doing this.
You quit all that.
No, I would definitely get money.
But I don't,
I wouldn't want to grift my audience to try and pay my legal fees.
Because, you know, what they did was wrong.
And it's best, I mean, it's against the law.
So, I mean, and I don't know, you know, I don't give a shit with their, you know, opinion is, uh, uh, uh, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
He's so flustered by this.
John just said I broke the law.
That's, um, slander.
It sure is.
He just said I broke the law.
I've not broken the law.
It's slanderous that he would say something like that.
She should watch his mouth.
You should go look up the definition of slander and put that on the screen.
Yeah.
And then read it to the class.
I definitely, because people probably don't know what that means.
It's crazy that he was actually thinking about starting up and go fund me
to fund a frivolous lawsuit that he brought against us.
He's trying to sue us for $850,000.
He's like, and also, can you help me raise money so I can sue these guys for $850,000?
What's in it for us, God?
Why would anyone want to do that?
He really is amazing.
And I love the chemistry that him and Clay Dabler have.
They've been doing us a long time now.
It's so fucking.
Are you doing anything in?
real life for your birthday, like not just
an online stream. What are you going out for dinner with
Dan and his lovely wife?
Dan's, uh, Dan's,
no, Dan's wife is not here.
So I am going out with
Danny and my friend.
I don't remember, bro. You shouldn't be doing too much
that. Are you on caffeine
today? Why?
Because you don't shut up.
I interrupted you. I'm sorry. You would say,
I threw to me. I asked you a question and I
interrupted your answer.
Okay.
So these two just are terrible at broadcasting together, and Clay is just a very nervous guy.
He's always talking and making noises and fidgeting with stuff, and John just can't take it.
Okay.
I'm not.
I want to shan.
Here we go.
You are a noisy motherfucker, dude.
No, no, just give me a couple of seconds.
Fucking jittery.
That's what you put your weed in.
You put your weed in there.
Did you do cocaine or something?
No, smoked hell of weed.
Do you have any?
Jesus.
Look at all those noises.
Look at all those noises.
That's why I pulled that clip.
Because he was getting so irritated with Clay throughout this episode.
He always does.
Because Clay is not a good broadcaster.
And look at all those noises is my favorite.
Meanwhile, Judd slams at his keyboard.
It's nonstop.
It's just like, you're being noisy.
Oh, I'm the one.
Noisy, okay.
John can only focus on one thing at a time.
So if something's distracting him, he loses his mind because he can only keep that train of thought for so long.
And he wants to blame other people for fucking up.
So if he gets distracted and forgets what he's doing, it's Clay's fault.
Not the fact that John has no attention span.
and this asshole is trying to convince himself and the rest of us
that he's going to take the LSAT and pass it in January.
Right.
He's learned not to say LSATs anymore,
but he says he's going to take the LSAT and pass it in January.
And he says that he retains information.
He actually said it usually takes three years for me to probably be two
because I retain information so well and I test so well.
So this is a very easy question.
The LSAT questions will be much more difficult.
call it the mess. Do you know what else that stands for now? Yeah. Go on, what is that?
I forgot. It's a legal something, attitude tests. No, no, no, legal something. Something.
Something. Yeah, actually works. Oh, shit. Application test. Legal. It's an application because
you're applying, isn't it? Legal something application.
I don't know.
Oh, look who it is.
Pocky, you can't quit me.
It's amazing.
John has to lie.
Do you know what else I said for?
Yeah, of course I do.
What is it?
I didn't think you were going to do that, right?
I didn't think you were going to do that.
Legal stupid ass test.
He'll fail the test.
You know, like you get a certain amount of points just for writing your name.
Yeah.
On there, and he'll find a way to fail that.
He can't figure out the name of the actual test that he's taking.
It's incredible.
And for some reason, Clay can't let it go.
So he keeps trying to figure out what it is.
Ah, John, is it legal school?
Legal school application test.
May.
Law school application.
And a legal school.
Law school.
Still got it wrong.
It's the law school admission test.
Law school admission test.
We learned about this just a few days ago, John.
And I retained it.
I know.
Holy shit.
Because it's so obvious.
He really is bad at this.
Last clip I have on here,
John talking about how he calls me a just do it.
Oh, yeah.
Which definitely doesn't mean that I'm a gay man.
That's not what he means at all.
And, of course, Clay's going to agree with him.
So did you hear what I had Aub on?
And, you know, a lot of these guys trying to say,
when I say, just do it,
it's somehow, it's like a gay...
We're insinuating.
in Cole's gay.
Yeah, but it's not.
That's just how we said it.
You let me finish.
I fucking love that because he goes,
you know, people are saying that when I say,
just do it.
I'm insinuating the car.
And Clay's like, yeah, you're insinuating the Carl's gay.
No, no, I'm not doing that.
Oh, you're not?
That's what everyone thinks.
So that's exactly what you're doing.
So where this leads to it,
I don't have the clip because it goes on way too long,
John goes to find this episode of Rob Saul,
where he's like, Carl says this phrase,
and I'm telling you, he just has this inflection.
where, of course, people are going to make fun of him for him.
And he goes to the video, and it's the full opposite.
He goes, oh, shit, I thought this was a clip.
All right, hold on, let me find it.
And he starts scrubbing through and he's looking for stuff.
It takes fucking forever.
You've seen this.
Yes.
And then he finds the part and he starts watching it.
And he hears me say something.
He goes, oh, that was it.
No, that's not it.
He repeats a couple times like, I guess I saw it.
And then he's watching some more and Clay's talking.
He's yelling at Clay.
It's crazy back and forth.
He finally finds it, the thing that he wanted to show.
And he played it half dozen times.
and it's me saying okay
the word okay
he was so focused
I was okay
like John's like
re-creating
it was like
okay
it was wild to watch
because he was like
reinventing
how I talk
while he's doing it
there's so many things
make fun of me for
as my point
I was not finding
any of the good ones
Cardiff is in the Discord
right now
I feel bad
because look at all
those noises
was going to be the next
to poke a dabbler
Because that would have been a tough one for us to get.
But unfortunately, we're watching too, Cardiff.
But speaking of which, MLP, you play to poke a dabbler, the home version, right?
The home version.
Are you good at it?
No.
Get confidence, stupid.
Let's poke a dabbler together, shall we?
It's time for everyone's favorite new game show to poke a dabbler.
What do you say, ladies and gentlemen?
And Carl, are you ready to poke a dabbler?
And by the way, I also played guitar on the Tonight Show
in front of millions.
I played on Conan in front of millions.
But now I'm going to throw together a party
so I can get on stage.
This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard, ever.
And they believe it.
And they actually believe this false narrative.
They just, it doesn't matter what good I do.
They will make it bad.
Look, don't you remember, Nikki B?
Don't remember when her husband was going through chemo?
and she didn't want to do a go fund me
because she was afraid of the trolls
so I took it upon myself
to tell people
they want to donate I'll get the money
to her which I did along with
a mini iPad that did work
what did John say next
here are your choices
number one
she just needed
a new charging cable
B
I bought it from one of my pals
at the pub
next was a brand new latest model no but it worked
four
and my mother even sent her a hundred bucks
and lastly all of the above
a dabbler damn okay
I always go first on this game
I think it's four and my mother even sent her a hundred
dollars but while that that last one really put a twist on things uh what do you think iraq i was
thinking it's b but lastly is really appealing because it all seems to make sense because he can't
do anything um would he anything that he would consider good without having to brag and give you
nonsense details that led up to him doing the good thing especially because he knows that the
iPad didn't work.
So he has to be like, oh, they say it didn't work, but I got a cable.
They just needed a different cable for it.
My mom gave $100.
I got it for the get, yeah.
I can see that.
I'm going to go with lastly.
All right, MLP.
What do you think?
No, I'm taking B.
I'm taking ERAXB.
Okay.
And producer Chris, what do you think?
I'm going lastly, and I will explain.
I hardly ever explain.
Okay.
But after listening to all the first four, I said, if he's doing it all of the above, I'm
taking it, and it came up.
So I got a shit.
got to go with my instill. You were ready for it.
Yeah. And I like giving him an L.
I will tell you why I took four.
It's because I don't know that he was the one who told us he bought the iPad from a guy at the pub.
I think that was a story that came out later.
But I could be wrong about that.
I feel like he's never going to put any effort into going shopping.
So it would be easy to buy it at the pub.
That's true.
All right?
And that's where he shops.
That's where he shops.
Don't remember when her husband was going through chemo and she didn't want to
do would go fund me because she was afraid
of the trolls. So I took
it upon myself
to tell people they want to donate.
I'll get the money to her, which I did
along with a mini iPad,
that did work.
And my mother even sent her 100.
Yes. Yes.
She's talking to my mother all the time.
But what do these people do?
Pocky says it was a scam.
And before you know it.
That is the funniest answer because that's nothing to do with him.
Oh, yeah.
And my mother even gave $100.
Look over there.
Yeah, great, John.
Well, well done.
Everything has to have a qualifier.
Yep.
Everything.
It's crazy.
Yeah, that's such a non-sequit or two.
It did work.
And I also gave her $100.
She could buy an updated mini iPad for that, probably.
All the trolls run with what I'm doing as a nice gesture suddenly becomes a scam.
And suddenly becomes something.
that is portraying me as a bad guy.
And this happens time and time again.
And they do it all the time.
That's all for this time.
Come back next time to find out if you are man enough to poke a dablin.
It's in my nature.
Sit, Eugene, sit.
Good dog.
The great Cardiff Electric, everyone.
Well done.
Well done.
And Cardiff, I'm sorry you didn't get on the big birthday extravagance.
I'll give you a peek behind the curtains.
When we had Cardiff come on to co-host the show a few weeks ago, he goes,
I might not be participating too much in the Stuttering John segment.
I'm working on something.
And I always know not to ask any questions when it comes to Cardiff.
He works in mysterious ways, and I look forward to being surprised.
And I was surprised when John admitted yesterday that Cardiff was going to be the special guest on his 60th birthday show, because that would have been great.
It would have been smart of John to do that, but he doesn't do a lot of things that are smart.
If you want to be smart, you should check out, it's Eric Nagel at it's Eric Nagel.
Well, I was going to say, fight the dabbler.com is the smart thing to do at this current moment.
And don't it. Give till it hurts. Forget the Salvation Army. Forget those poor.
kids at Christmas. This is the spirit of giving right now for fight the dabbler.com to put this
stuttering retard in his place. But yes, if you do want to check me out, if you don't already hate me
from being on the show the entire time, it's Eric Nagel across the board on the social
media and also on our YouTube channel. It's Eric Nagel. And a little exclusive for you,
I just put up a new video where we broke down a video you sent to me about a week or so ago.
that opi says we're not friends anymore oh that was great so we did a breakdown uh dissected what he said
and a lot of things that contradict what he was saying there i found old clips old videos and
put them in there to go give you a bit of a juxtaposition back and forth and uh it is available
right now on our youtube channel it's called old man streams and clouds and it's him 500 feet
above Manhattan and that photo by the way not altered no i believe that the dark lips and a bedhead
so i took that it's available now on my youtube channel if you want to go check that out and uh guys
always uh have so much fun thank you for including me on this and uh enjoy everything that you guys
do eric i'll see you in Vegas this weekend i will be there yeah looking forward to that we should
have a fun we'll totally be there a very fun weekend together thank you so much
for coming on, Eric.
And I know you've been sending me,
is it pronounced Jubal?
Jubal.
Jubal.
And I actually had that queued up to play some stuff,
but I'll save it for later in Jock Tover.
Do it another time.
You don't even have to do his show,
just the other things I sent to.
Well, actually, what I'm most intrigued by is
he does these prank phone calls.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
And then he has a skit where he interviews Trevor.
So he's both people on the screen interviewing the character that he does
for his prank phone calls.
It's wild.
It's madness.
It's madness.
So we'll probably get into that later on in Jocktober.
Dude, thanks so much.
Yeah.
Oh, fuck, that was a teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
But thank you very much, E. Rock, for coming on.
Always good to talk to you, buddy.
Thank you, guys.
I appreciate it.
All right.
Get the fuck out of here.
I take up too much of your time as it is.
Very generous for this time.
We'll be back with some voicemails coming up in just a moment.
But first, let's find out what's going on on the internet.
Internet news with Lucy Tightbox.
From Facebook, Harrison Blake Young writes,
got to love how WATP keeps profiling topic time using snippets from the shows,
which include my occasional fuck-ups.
But that's what makes me so great.
Travis Wilson posts the silly walk pick of steel toe and Bruce Bickman comments.
What a goofy prick.
Hope that femboy rots in jail.
Ryan Malady says this about the lull suit.
If only we could live stream the court proceedings.
From Patreon, the negative creep.
breaks down last Saturday's show.
Lady K. Producer Chris and
Les Gaypool? Classic lineup.
That was a great episode.
That was really great!
Gunn Cramps concur. No superchats, no Adam,
a tight two-hour show.
I wish they could all be this good.
We'd be willing to pay more if you can make this happen.
You can even keep Adam. Just ditch the superchats.
Andre Gunnar Hawkson shares,
I'm here for the Ronnie the Truth Teller Redemption Arc.
Mr. Trey Peacockoines.
He's only done it once or twice, but Rocco
as Gino is my favorite Dabbleverse character.
Sleepner riffs, another spin for the toe.
From our subreddit, we find more comments on Aaron Imholt
walking into the courthouse.
Arthur Byrne dunks with Reservoir Dork.
Wapio reports, this is how you walk when you're thinking,
they're watching you walk.
Walk normal, casual walking over here.
Damn, I'm cool.
Ralph Moleman Mellish.
Every step is like he's trying to step over dog shit.
His strides seems forcibly long.
Also, he's an espresso martini.
Flobinstein can really pull off sarcasm.
I see this king and just think of how lucky slam pieces.
I'm sure this bro just lays hard pipe in every hole, and she's in heaven.
From Dabler's Anonymous, Pock-faced criminal asks a valid question.
When Ava finally turns on stuttering John again, will he finally go there?
Walter offers, if it happens while he's shit-faced, in other words, while he's awake,
he will most likely go on a bonkers anti-trans rant.
Dr. Mind is certain.
He will.
John is human scum with a dark soul.
The lowest you think he would go, he'll go even lower.
Snow Eastern reminds us.
Look how he handled it with Quadfather.
He will no doubt say some vile shit against her being trans.
God, it's going to be hilarious.
And from YouTube, Waldo Carmen notes,
I love how it's news that Theo Vaughn bombed.
He's bombed for the last 20 years.
DLW, Seattle.
Once in a generation talent is not true.
Most comedians of his generation are as bad as he is.
B-223 points out.
Brendan is the get in there and make it all about you meme.
Wow.
Rumpled Trenchcoat.
I think Opie is three broadcasts away from giving Matt a book of matches from the first time they met.
Random Man Will counters with, nah, based on the bourbon.
Opie is more likely to re-gift a book of matches someone else gave him.
And Carmopolis plays us out with, I wish Fezzi could see all that Opie has become.
Excellent news update from Lucy Type.
And producer Chris, thank you both for putting that together.
We've got a couple of voicemails here coming in.
Todd Peterson called into the show.
Now, this is, of course, Aaron Himmel's attorney, the attorney that got Aaron thrown in jail for revenge porn.
Hey, Carl, who's Todd Peterson?
Aaron's lawyer.
I think you're an asshole.
What movie is that from?
I don't know.
Ferris Bueller's day.
Is that Ferris Bueller?
I think so.
Yeah, I think you're right.
Now, this is funny.
There was a lot of confusion when Rocco came on as Gino.
Oh, yeah.
I referred to him as Gino Burrow, thinking that people would pick up on the fact that it's Rocco Burrow.
But a lot of people did not.
Holy shit, Carl.
It took me a while to realize that Gino was actually El Horriblet, whatever his name is, Tuki.
Whatever his other names are.
He does a really good job, geez.
Don't do that too much, though.
Yeah, I was seeing comments, especially in Reddit, people who just listen to the show.
Like, why are they having Gino on?
All he does is yell.
What's up with this guy?
And then people were explaining that was actually Tuki.
And then even on the YouTube comments, people were confused and thought that was actually Gino on the show.
Very funny.
But, yeah, I was messaging with Rocco during the day.
And I was like, hey, do you want to come on and just talk about what happened?
happened in the courtroom on the show because we're going to play what
Aaron said happened in the courtroom so I'd love for you to
give some balance to that and I asked him I've done this many
times I asked him just be out as Rocco and he always refuses
he's like I'll come out as tokey I was like fine whatever
and he's like wait should I come out as you know like I'm not your publicist
man do what the fuck you want to do I just want you on the show to talk
about it so he chose Gina which I thought was a good choice yeah the
giveaway to some people was that he was making too much sense
yes I like that he actually finished thought
Yeah, right.
Hey, Carl, you guys were talking about how Aaron Holt acts like he is railroaded.
To be fair, though he's not right, he's close.
You see what happened was his ex-wife and his friend and his friend's wife ran a train on him.
So you can see the confusion, railroaded, having a train running on you.
All right, shoot.
You know how to explain the jokes, sir.
Totally understood.
Whatco, waka.
Totally understood what you were saying.
Wait, wait, right, Ryan Holiday was a board up, and John knew him, the Ryan Holiday that was on the old biggest problem show, and Maddox couldn't stop sucking his dick the entire time.
That Ryan Holiday, that's fantastic.
Yeah, I forgot that Ryan Holiday was on Biggest Problem.
I listened to many, many years ago.
It was like episode 18 or something like that.
But Small World, Small World is Dabalverse.
MLP, thanks so much for coming over and being part of the show today.
Thanks for having me, man.
Hell yeah. Producer Chris, you're here.
Yeah.
Is the Yankees game out right now?
It's 2-0-0-Torato.
Oh, well, let's get the fuck out of here.
I got to go.
Bye.
I got to go.
I got to go.
I got to go.
I got to go.
Okay.
Bye.
Bye.
A plane has hit.
I rewatched Carly.
Boom.
Mom.
Boom.
Boom.
Are we done here?
I think we are.
This is it.
It's over.
Okay?
Goodbye.
Hey, bye.
Goodbye.
Man, that was a good episode.
That was a good episode.
I enjoyed that.
Okay, bye.
We're behind on Jocktober.
Thank you.
