Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep666 - Pro Football Arm Wrestling Championship

Episode Date: October 16, 2025

We start with an update on Aaron Imholte’s jail sentence and how he’s coping with having to serve eight days straight. He’s not sleeping well but it’s not because he’s dreading the pokey. He has an unbelievable attitude about his situation; it’s almost like he’s looking forward to it.  Vinnie Paulino joins Adam, Chris, and me to get an update on bad boy KarmicX. Because it’s episode 666, Producer Chris brings some clips from our favorite metalhead motivational speaker on Metal Mascara. Whitney Cummings took money from the Saudi government and is handling the criticism about as poorly as anyone possibly could. At least Bill Burr isn’t calling his detractors racists… yet. For some reason Christian Bladt and Eric Zane showed up on Tom Myers vs. the Rest of the World and treated it like a real show. Wasn’t Bladt on the Dennis Miller Show? Opie briefly faked a retirement but this week he’s right back to riffing with Ron the Waiter about how much money they don’t make on YouTube. After some comparisons between Opie and Stuttering John, we finally strap in for John’s reaction to finding out we have the Pro Football Arm Wrestling Championship that originally aired on CBS in 2017. Then we play highlights from the show that John’s been bragging about for years. Oof! Megan and Annie join us for rounds of “Is It Gay?” and “To Poke A Dabbler” and also to read some recent comments and reviews.  Support us, get bonus episodes, and watch live every Saturday and Wednesday: ⁠http://bit.ly/watp-patreon⁠ ⁠https://watp.supercast.tech/⁠ Watch this episode here: https://youtube.com/live/re4lRomduDk  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, we'll be checking in on Karmic X, the YouTube chatter, whose own stream is now exploding with its high energy and unique content. Whitney Cummings is handling criticism for going to the Riyadh comedy festival worse than Bill Burr somehow. Tom Myers had huge celebrities on his podcast as both Eric Zaid and Christian Blatt were guests.

Opie and Ron are back and making righteous bucks on YouTube. Senator John tries out in front of the pro football arm wrestling championship, but sorry, Johnny, we have the episodes and we have the receipts. Also, Megan will be here with another round of Is It Gay? We'll try to poke a dabbler with Cardiff, your reviews and voicemails. First, Aaron Immolts going to be starting his jail sentence this Friday. And he is doing eight days straight. He was hoping for weekends. His attorney sent a note into the judge saying, hey, is it cool if like Aaron does weekends?

Because, you know, he has to see his kids on the weekends. He'd much rather be in the slammer. It would be a lot better time for him. And the judge said, no. No, we're not doing that. Actually, report to the jail Friday. And in eight days' time, perhaps we'll let you go. go back home again. So Aaron

is facing this. If you haven't been killed. So that's what Aaron is facing right now is eight days in jail. And if there's one thing Aaron's good at, it's coping. It was bad last night, man. I slept poorly. It had nothing to do

with jail. Nothing to do with the jail thing. I'm still waiting for the jail thing to hit me. Is that incredible? The jail thing is a terrible way to refer to your cellmate. Jealous. me I'm not jealous you say You think it's because of jail

It's definitely not because of jail That's not why I'm not sleeping well You think I miss her? I don't miss her at all I never even think about her why you even bringing her up We didn't bring her up You brought her up No I didn't you did I'm starting to think maybe I just have a really damn good attitude

And I'm uh you know He's amazing It's incredible How is it that I'm just like so comfortable with doing eight days in jail Why am I so amazing at this. He's a magician. It's my can-do attitude. It's incredible. But maybe he'll tell us why he

wasn't able to sleep. I'm sure there's some other reason for it. I'm just looking at this the right way and I've got my head on straight. That could be the case. Or I could be in massive amounts of denial, but I kind of feel like today is the day where it has to hit me.

That's an ISO. Yeah, I know. That's pretty good. What do you think the therapist would say to that if you want to And you're like, yeah, I'm not worried about this thing that I've been dreading forever at all. I mean, the therapist will be getting the information they need to diagnose them and they get paid by the hour. So they'd probably just let them go. Yeah, it's true.

Because we're going in Friday. We don't know. Apparently the three timetables on the table right now are eight days, four and four or four twos. Now, I want, and I have... He was only for every other hour. Yeah, like 16 days. Just for every other hour. Jesus Christ, just get it over with it, he also keeps saying, we're going to, we're not doing

anything, buddy. This is all you. We're not going in. We're not requesting anything. I assume he's referring to his attorney who writes up these letters. They're not going to be there with the idea, but it's just going to be you. Todd Peterson will not be there. And I believe the response when they requested weekends was something like, well, all that's

going to do is give you more time to be on your podcast, which is why you're going to jail in the first place. Good boy. Because of the time you're spending on your podcast. So, nobody want to let people work, but your work turns out, it turns into like revenge porn and felonies. So we're just going to throw you in jail so you can think about that for a little bit. Makes sense. Come to 50-50 on this.

So there is no advantage either way, either eight straight or four twos. Who's telling him that? There's a 50-50 chance. What did the judge say, we'll flip a coin when you get here? Yeah, there's a lot of odds going on. That's weird. Four of a kind. Right.

that's what I'm looking for. The thing I ain't looking for is two fours. Unless they can spread that shit out over like a year or two. See, like my theory. Oh, I don't know. All right. How about this here? Do four days now and then what's your 2027 look like?

We'll figure out a time that works for you. I'm looking to do this in a way that stretches it out and is the most costly for the state and the jail. Yeah, that is what he's talking about. And actually, it's going to get worse as. he elaborates on that over like a year or two see like my theory is if you have a probationary period of up to two years okay I think you should have up to two years to serve the eight days now I know what you're thinking you're thinking well Aaron wouldn't that just be so convenient for you wouldn't that just work out perfectly in see again this sums up Aaron perfectly

everything is about the present hey that's a problem for tomorrow Aaron like I don't give Oh, fuck about that. So he goes, would it be great if I had it the two years to serve these eight days? And his thought was, I know what you're thinking. That sounds great for you, Aaron. Yeah. That sounds horrific. Get it over with, you idiot.

Plus this probation period, they're looking for you to slip up. So at any point, they just be like, you know what? Forget the 15 days. We're bringing up to 45 or we're throwing you in there for 60, you know? We're throwing away the key. What an idiot. He just watched this looming over him forever. But that's funny what you say about it's present, Aaron,

and he's never worrying about tomorrow, which isn't always the worst way to live except he's completely worried. He's not sleeping. It's no way to live. Yeah, it's not house noises, guys. Right. The fact that he's not sleeping. Right, the fact that he's not sleeping and his solution is,

let's put it off more. Yeah, that's crazy. Your favor, and it would. I believe that. But, no, the reason I wasn't sleeping. well last night was because I had a caffeine drink during the evening show and I'm just up.

That makes sense. A 38-year-old man would not know when to drink a caffeinated beverage on a weeknight. And that's why he wasn't able to sleep real well. Sure. I'll go along with that. Usually if I fire up a little royal match and I throw something up on the TV, it wears my eyes out and I fall asleep. I sound like an old man. Then I have a nana has a glass warm milk. So I do...

He's playing royal match on his phone to go to sleep to. Oh, it's a game. Yeah, yeah. I didn't know what that was. Yeah, it's a game that girls play on their phones. I'm like, I'll fire that shit up. Yeah, it can sound too bad. All that, I keep waking up, and I'm waking up every hour and a half, two hours. This doesn't sound like a caffeine thing, does it? No.

That sounds like I'm worrying about shit, fang, if you're waking up every hour and a half. Just throwing that out there. I've slept before. how I know this. But isn't he always like that? Didn't we watch that graph? Or he's just up all night all the time anyway? Yeah, Moody actually was able to document every time Aaron visited Kiwi Farms and he does not sleep at night.

He is up all night checking for one more person. He'd be like, Nick Rickicata sucked. Yeah, all right. That's another one. It's on my side. Do all that. I keep waking up. And I'm waking up every hour and a half, two hours.

Like, I'm not getting solid sleep. I feel good. You know, I got my trusted crack cocaine. cane in a can here. I'm going to be fine energy-wise. But just slept like piss and shit and woke up like this every time. Just this

crying. And I wish I could say that there was something I could do to fix the situation, but I think people might be right. Stop drinking caffeine at night time. Stay on the internet. There you go. Deal directly with your problems? I've heard of this.

That all sounds well and good, guys, but realistically, what can I do? Talk to tomorrow, Aaron. Oh, no, he's pissed at me. I owe him money. And you have to admit this when you live in a rural area. It's the goddamn corn. It's corn dust. Okay.

First, it was caffeine. Now it's corn dust that's keeping him up at night. It's the number one killer. I've seen a lot of television commercials for sleep hates. Number once, if you're suffering from corn dust, corn dust keeping you up. Not a single time I've seen that. I have this thing that we live in New York State.

Maybe it's a little bit different. The windows close. It's amazing. I can close my windows and all the corn dust just can't even get in. It just hits right off the glass. It's corn dust is what it is. I love that wrestler. I remember corn dust?

I can't sleep. He would throw corn dust in the guy's eyes with the reflusts. I've never even heard of corn dust. I'll be up all night. We here in Minnesota will never forget the name of corn dust. Jesus H. Christ, no, you're thinking of the letter that was filed by the prosecution this week. It is not up to the prosecution.

It's up to the judge, my friend. But that's okay. Oh, so what was referring to here is what we were talking about, where the prosecution was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're not getting weekends. Oh, what's going to do is give you more time to be on your show. And I will say, listen, I'll be very selfish right now. I wanted Aaron to get weekends because weekends errand comes in every Monday with a story or two. Yeah. And that would be more interesting for us.

Oh, yeah. I host a little show called This Little Piggy. And Aaron going away for eight days doesn't help our cause at all. There will be great stories after that. I can't wait to hear about his triumphs in jail. He's going to win Cornhole tournaments. He's going to be making everyone laugh. He'll probably be a gang member by the time he gets out.

The Cornhill tournament thing will probably be half true. Right. I think we're going to hear a lot about how unfair things are in there, how we're never going to believe it. like it's just they say they're going to do something and they don't like it's unbelievable we got to do something about this yeah chili de castro from delete laws youtube channel he got put in the slammer and boy did he feel like he was treated unfairly it's almost like they wanted to tear people from wanting to go back there again it's crazy and it's almost like nobody's

really looking into the treatment of prisoners and improving it at the moment that's not a priority yeah probably not what about the white ones though adam can we help them out i can only do much. All right. Nova says you're going to have energy drink withdrawal in jail. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Probably not.

I don't have energy drinks on the weekends. That would be the most pussy thing he could possibly do. Oh, can I just get a little caffeine? I've got a headache over here. I think someone beat this guy up. This will take your mind off. And I'm fine. So I think we're going to get through it.

By the grace of God. All right. That's what I wanted to play from that. Thanks to the Great Stalin 19 or Stalin 19 or whoever he is, whoever he may be for posting that for us. You want to get caught up on Karmic real quick? Yeah. Because I was watching Tuki Soup last night.

They had a special guest host, El Haribla. He's filling in for Tuki. He's good. He's pretty good. It's mysterious. I'm be dabbling live. He's pretty good. I don't know how good he is on Tuki Soup.

But anyway. So El Haribla was watching Karmic, who is like staying with Felicia right now. And it's like in wherever Felicia lives and he's wandering around doing IRL streaming. And, you know, when we first met Karmic, this guy had an edge to him. He had a point of view. He was living in the valley of men. And all of us were pussies. I think he called me out specifically for not being a real man.

And it's like, hey, I have that same still. I have it. Yeah. He told me I was a loser because I read books. Right. So, Carmen had all figured out. He had life all figured out. And then we found out he took his first airplane ride.

Wee! To one of those big cities where he met up with a girl. A good girl? Yeah. And she let him take her panties off. So Carmix, like, since then, has, like, been experienced the world, like, an Amish 18. year old. So he was literally living in a valley of men.

Yeah, right. Right. Okay. Now I get it. That is the problem. Okay. But it turns out, yeah, that maybe he wasn't as worldly as he was letting on. But, uh, Eddie, do you want to stop the clip that you grabbed for us? Catching up with Carmichs? Well, after all of that, I just wanted to see what he was up to because I know, I think his girlfriend is no longer his girlfriend. He's

given up alcohol. So he's battling sobriety live on camera his views have gone to the thousands to less than a hundred and he's streaming non-stop which is not a good combination so I randomly clicked in and this is what I saw him up to

let's have another tato eating snacks these are fucking good I ain't lying I believe you. A salty fried potato treat? Yeah, sounds like it's probably pretty good.

He daintily covers his mouth. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Watch it down with some Coca-Cola. That was really good. Really good. Oh, he's doing food reviews. They're real-time snack reviews.

Oh, that was really good. Cool. Get back to me when you try a pretzel. I want to know what that's like. He is better than Frenchie at this. Damn, Tato. You make a fucking good roast chicken potato. Holy shit.

God, even that flavor is boring. It's so Midwest. Roasted chicken. With cats got a kick. Ooh, this one's stew flavor. Gross. Absolutely. Absolutely. 10 plus.

Oh, Spurg Snake is back. How's Quadfather's dick, you nobody fucking loser? Tell me Spurg. How's Quads fucking half-man chubbing your mouth, you fucking hairless piece of shit? Okay, we're back to the old Kermak. Something for everyone. Okay. Who is getting insulted right there?

Was it Quadfather or the guy who was messaging Carmic right there? It was Spurgg. Yeah. It was Spurgin. If I'm Quadra, I'm just like, Jesus, you got to make fun of my dick just because you're mad at this guy? Took a lot of shrapnel there. Unnecessarily so. This is sober, Karmic?

What is this show? Tato's make you angry. I guess so. He kind of reminds me my grandpa. All right, Grandpa. I'll tell Spurgan to get Quadfather's dick out of his mouth. All right. producer chris because it is episode 666 i didn't want to ignore that oh gotcha you brought in a little

package for us yeah we we talk about metal mascara a few times on this show oh yes we had to sprinkle in a little bit of metal you know it's only an episode number but sure uh yeah let's check in and our friend chrissey salem uh who illustrates what style over substance really means in my clip one here's a reintroduction to chrisie great to have you awesome to have you in the metal mascara house yeah today we're talking about the unrealized warrior which cherry might be you can be any one of you but it's many of you I guarantee you have you like Chrissy man that makes that so like you never met before I'm Chrissy Salem inspirational entertainment channel speaker rocker I'm the real deal from that

to tell people jumping on. No way I am. That's right. Had to tell. I never know when to stop these clips. I understand. It doesn't make any sense. So, Chrissy is this thing's name, right? Yeah. So much work goes into this.

Like, I can't imagine the amount of work. What? I spent hours before my show. Putting this together looks daunting to me. You don't have a boom box like that. Well, I don't. Carl, is that a real snake? Yeah, look out, Chrissy.

It's a Fisher-Price microphone. Do you hear that echo? Yeah, that's Mr. Microphone to you. I'm talking not about the audio. I'm talking more about the visual here, the makeup, the background. I mean, just stretch you out that cotton to look like spider webs. That can take hours alone. It's not like you know.

I doubt. So the name of this short that Chrissy put out is called, you're not a loser or maybe it's pronounced you're not a loser oh that's right I forgot that this is all inspirational to make you feel like

you can be living your best life while you watch this loser stand in his basement so I say his it goes by she I believe she okay my back I think Lucy did a deep dive on Chrissy I'll make fun of Chrissy

but I don't want to miss gender this person right yeah God forbid yeah that's what Chrissy does is offer questions like are you Are you feeling like this?

Is this piss you off? Blah, blah, blah. Never one solution. No. And it's just amazing. There's some diet advice coming up in my clip two. Okay, that's one thing I will take advice from from this person. Rail thin.

Let me guess the diet advice is do meth. Well, let's move on to clip three. No, diet advice. Let a rip. So how much weight you got to lose? Yeah. Making sure you're a little soft of number. for our ass.

Is it 10, 50, 100? What is it? You're not happy of ours. Good. Neither was I. This isn't about diet. It's not about treating. It's not about Chris.

I don't know why. I ain't healthy. You eat too much. Pretty good advice. It's actually more an observation. I like the idea that you see this person. You're like, how do I be more like this? that person.

Wait, you used to, your wife used to be out of control, really? You got to figure it out now, though, right? Okay, good. Yeah, I don't know if Chrissy has a job other than this. There's a lot of views. She looks very employable, but I hear what you're saying. I'm guessing there's like a 65-year-old gay man. Yeah.

And I was like waiting for someone to pound on the wall, like, keep it down in there. Chrissy is time for bad. Right. I never know what the fuck. She's talking about, but this is just a great example of this. So take it away, clip three. Character deficiencies. Yeah, you lack character.

Don't matter who you are, what age you are. You lack character. There are things about you you need to address and fix because they stink. Then you have your annoying habits. We all have annoying habits, and they'll stink. and then experiences particularly ones of the heart where we were broken up with rejected or we broke up with somebody that mix of things

because all the things we seem to take with us everywhere we go as life goes on we learn those lessons all right so what is all this it's gobbledy gook yeah you guys ever see a motivational speaker in real life before yes not a real

me too yes I worked for Gannett and Gannett sent us all to watch this motivational speaker and I swear to God it's verbatim except this guy had a shit together so we're like oh maybe he's got this figure out

what makes you think Chris he doesn't ever shit together I have a couple clues but honestly like all of this stuff is just regurgitated they all say the same things and none of it really means anything it could apply to anyone usually or anything so it must be reading a whole

horror scope, right? You're going to be lucky this month. And next week, you're going to meet an old friend again. I feel like, you know how we always say Howard, like, repeats, like, everything he hears from his therapist to his audience? Yeah. This is, like, this person read the back of a self-help book and feels qualified to tell everyone how to read their life.

That's what I mean. Like, this is all just regurgitated shit. And I would love for this person to go on Dick Masterson show. And the reason why I say that is because Dick asks the best follow-up question ever, which is, what do you mean by that? Yes. I would love for a dick to just sit there and go, uh-huh, uh-huh, what do you mean by that? Chris, he needs a producer.

Someone's sitting there. So that was my pallet cleanser, call it a wellness check. This is exactly what you get every time you check in on Chrissy. Great. Well, there, we fulfilled our six. Happy Halloween episode number, right. Yeah, we did it. I've never done DMT personally, but I hear it's a lot like this.

Everyone sees the same thing, you know, an alien, and they tell you stuff and you feel connected. I feel like she's just reliving one of those. Oh, yeah, reliving. I'd rather get my news from Joe Rogan on DMT, but I think you might be out to something. You want to compare. I think you might be out to something there. I'm right. I talked about this with Drew yesterday, but I feel like it's so interesting to me.

And this Riyadh comedy festival over in Saudi Arabia that was sponsored by the Saudi government. They're the ones who put this festival on and brought all these mostly American comics out to this festival. and paid them but loads of money to put on a comedy festival. And I remember when it first started surfacing the lineup, it was on social media people like, is this real? It didn't look real. Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr. I mean, it's literally the who's who of every big comic who's out there right now.

And Samarrow. And so this was going around and people discovered that it was real and were flabbergasted that some of these comics would take a gig like this, specifically guys, Like Bill Burr, Bill Burr is a man who's been talking about how billionaires should be taken down to the street and shot. And he was praising the Luigi Mandione for shooting that health care CEO. And he's just like, we got to fight the man. And those are the people who are the problem in this world.

And they're taking money from the Saudi royalty. And I want to applaud the crowd prince for putting that journalist in that suitcase. That's what I mean. It's so hypocritical. It's nuts. It's so wild. And so, again, I didn't really care about it because I'm not a guy who's sitting there like, I wouldn't take money from those people.

I'm just like, yeah, they offered me a buttload of money. Like, it's going to go to someone. Sure, why not? But I didn't really care about it until we started seeing the reactions from people. And the way they've responded to the criticism. Bill Burr being the biggest example, like Bill has been having meltdowns, handling this so poorly on his podcast. Blind Mike's been covering it really, really well.

And so Bill is just getting inundated by negative comments and haters, and he doesn't know how to respond. And so he's just digging himself a deeper and deeper hole with every comment he makes. He's calling people who criticize him bots. He's acting like he can't explain himself or else he'll be taken out of context and then it'll be passed around. So he's not giving explanations for things. He's not answering questions. He used to have, you know, two shows a week. and the segment at the end of the show is always answering emails and feedback and questions.

He's abandoned that now. Every question is about this Riyadh comedy festival where he took $1.6 million or however much it was. And is acting like, hey, fuck you. You know, people want to laugh? I went over there and made them laugh. And he won't address how much money he made. He won't address who paid him the money. He's just handling it very poorly.

So I thought that was interesting. I've always been a big Bill Burr fan. and I find it fascinating the way he's responding to this. What I didn't know is that Whitney Cummings is handling this just as poorly, if not worse. Worse. Okay, I think it is, and I'll explain why. But first, let's back up real quick, because Chris DeLea did not go to this comedy festival. I assume he wasn't invited because he's not a very funny comic.

However, Eric Griffin claimed that he was offered a gig there and turned out because it wasn't an... I know. Eric Griffin, on the Golden Hour, said they offered me, but it wasn't enough money, so I turned it down. What? I know, is Eric Griffin, like a stand-up people want to see? Okay, I'll ask you, I asked this on Drew's show yesterday. Eric Griffin, if he's doing stand-up, is he playing a theater? Is he playing a club?

He's playing clubs, I think. I don't, I can't picture him in theater. He's probably headlining clubs. Yeah, he's definitely headlining clubs. He has big enough name for that. But I would assume between the two of them, DeLea is the bigger name. Oh, for sure. And Chris, I don't think, got invited for a number of reasons, I'm sure.

Well, anyway, they're on The Golden Hour, right? So Chris Delia and Eric Griffin. Brennan Schaub's not on this episode. So it's palatable. And the producer brings up this crack amico song, making fun of all the comics that did the Riyadh Comedy Festival, and they key in on the part about Whitney Cummings. Now, if you don't know the history between Whitney and Chris Delia, Chris played on Whitney's sitcom Whitney, he was

the main character, right? The boyfriend. He was the boyfriend. Whitney had two sitcoms, two broke girls that lasted a few seasons. And then she had Whitney that only lasted the one season. But Christalia was cast on that. He was the male lead. He was the male lead. Yes.

And then when the Me Too movement hit and all that shit with Chris Delea came out about what he was up to, Whitney did not have his back. And Whitney was very vocal during the Me Too movement. and Chris DeLea and her had a big falling out over this. There's a lot more to it than that. I'm just, you know, whatever, high-level view.

So no love loss there between these two. Chris DeLea goes on The Golden Hour last week and reacts to this crack amico song making fun of Whitney Cummings. What about Miss Whitney? Boy's for strong women, bitch, you got to be shitting me. I remember you vividly slim and Delia wickedly. You headed to a place where they treating women maliciously,

beating the bitches, viciously, physically dominating holes. This is a very good point. She's going to fit right in with the ancient ruins. Hey, Sebastian, what are you doing? That's funny. Yeah, it's, I don't like any of this. Listen, I hear what you're trying to say, but, yo, it is what it is. So, Eric Griffin has nothing.

Thanks, Eric. He always adds exactly nothing. Dynamite dropping. Every conversation. But literally, Chris is going out of his way to take the hierarchy. and not make comments about Whitney specifically. I mean, even though they just played, the producer played that for me.

He's like, oh, yeah, okay. I mean, early in the episode, he does, he says this. Some of these comics on it, you're like, oh, weren't you very vocal about fucking me too? You know what I mean? Or like, it's like, it's just so weird. So that was, I think, the reference to Whitney Cummings. But again, he's given a chance later on to call out Whitney specifically,

and he pretty much takes the high road. I mean, I don't want to talk bad about, you know. Really? Good for you. I try not to, look, if you can't see the fucking ridiculousness in a lot of it, then. Yeah, but you're, you know, but that's what I'm saying. You can't just, I can't live in that. I know.

I know. And it's tough, but, you know. Yeah, you know. But yeah. I think it's a, you don't, your thing right now is that you don't want to seem bitter or whatever, but this, I mean, take yourself out of it. Take the situation. Yeah, you would figure, this is hilarious.

You'd be like, like, like I said, a lot of it is a really good point. So I am not a Christa Leia fan, as you guys know. But it seems like he's taking the high road, and I did a ton of research on this to see if there's somewhere else that he's calling Whitney out specifically on another show and social media posts. I couldn't find anything.

Now, Whitney's getting a lot of shit from people. So it's almost like Chris is on a boring show that doesn't talk about anything or make any points. Yes. Okay. Yeah, go figure. Nothing happened on the Golden Hour. The best part about it was the Crackamico song.

Right. It was finally entertaining. It was very catch me. Finally, someone wants to hear your thought on something. And you're like, no, pass. Yeah. And then Eric Griffith goes, ha, I mean, whatever. Cool.

It is what it is, Carl. It is what it is. It is what it is. Cool. All right, so Whitney on her show this week comes on, and at the end of the show, she decides to address the controversy over her performing at the Riyadh Comedy Festival. This is the second podcast where I did start talking about the Riyadh Comedy Festival. you know

I can see the thing now Whitney Cummings addresses the festival you know what I don't think I need to address it you guys have it all figured out I think you guys got it yeah she does not have a good strategy in place

you know she's already up in her head like oh me addressing this is going to cause more people talking about it like that's the beauty of this is like Bill Burr has made this so much worse for himself he could have come out just been like hey pay me a lot of money what are you going to do but instead he tried to like explain it and criticize people who are criticizing him

and then ignore it and call them robots Dave Chappelle was at the comedy festival saying that there's more free speech in Saudi Arabia than there is in the United States he should be getting way more shit for that and everyone's just like whatever he's not talking about it no one can find him no one's interviewing him so I decided out of mind good strategy Whitney has picked the exact wrong strategy where she comes to just like I mean I'll address this but I guess you guys already got your minds made up because everyone knows way more than I do. Everyone's so fucking smart.

So passive-aggressive, aggressive. Like, oh, I guess you guys have it all figured out over there, don't you? You know, sometimes when I have a different opinion, condescension and baby talk kind of set me right. Yeah, that'll definitely get your detractors to be like, ah, she's got a good point there. Mm-hmm. She really didn't make me feel dumb.

Oh, she's getting snarky. Let's leave it alone, guys. I'm pretty sure they didn't pay her as much as Chappelle, because if they did, she probably wouldn't be podcasting or running to the internet to even talk at all, right? Right. There were some pretty big discrepancies on what people were paid. Of course, the one person we know for a fact, Tim Dillon, was offered $375,000 in which

Tim said, yeah, I'll do that. And then Tim ran his mouth at every podcast about the regime over there, the shitheads they are, and they fired him. And he's, no one looks better from this thing than, uh, than Tim Dillon. It's very funny. So this is the worst way to handle this possible. would imagine, I know she has an agent, a manager, you would think a publicist, right? Whitney would have a publicist? Like, would you have a meeting with your publicist before you go out

and address something like this, Adam? She seems easy to control. Well, exactly. She seems that she's not going to take advice in that they just have to manage what she does. That's what I mean. Yeah. No, what's happening now is really fascinating. We're seeing, we always wonder how Howard Stern became Howard of now. Like, we watched a very very, liberal Democrat creep conservative as Democrats didn't like the choices she made so she ran to the side that would support whatever she was doing at the time and this is becoming like a full conversion yeah and the point I was going to make I did take media training when I worked at e-bombs world so I know a little bit about this where they're like okay there could be asked this

question you be asked that question like here are the answers here's like where you want to steer the conversation it's a whole thing obviously as you guys know I would imagine the meeting with the publicist was, all right, here's what you don't want to do. Go on the attack against anyone who criticizes you for taking Saudi blood money. But instead, she does just the opposite. You guys, I just, I guess I'm this weirdo. I don't operate under, you know, the idea that every government and their people are the same.

But I guess that's, like, you think that. the people of Saudi Arabia and the Saudi government all share okay so you also believe that the Chinese government and the Chinese people are exactly the same it's just racism I just I didn't I think it took me a second

because when people are going like you're doing something unethical I'm like oh these must be ethical people let me listen and then you're like oh no you're just racist wow who signed the check the people are the government Whitney that's the crazy part and she never addresses that because like Louis CK was talking about this

on Bill Mars watching that. And all, like, Whitney's talking about, like, well, I've played over in the Middle East before it. I played this venue and that venue. It's just like, yeah, but that was created by a promoter. Like, a promoter invited you over there and put on a show. This is the government who's trying to put out, you know, there's a lot of reasons why they would do something like this. But a lot of it is like a PR move for them. Hey, look at us.

We're great now. You know? Hey, 9-11. That's yesterday, man. That's old news. Hey. We got a sense of humor. We're cool now, right, guys?

You're show ponies. She's pretending to not know the difference between playing a gig at the Tin Angel in Philly in America and playing at Trump's inauguration. She's pretending to not know. Like, that's all just a gig in America. Those are two very different gigs. Trump's inauguration? I play DC all the time, Adam. She grew up in the D.C. area.

What do you mean? What's the difference? You know the difference. Just the city. So, yeah, that's crazy that she leaped that quickly. By the way, I'm not like pulling a clip from seven minutes later. Those are the first two things she says. And the second thing she says is if you.

criticize me, you're a racist, which I don't know what year she's living in. Maybe in 2015, this would have worked, you know? You didn't vote for Obama. Okay, yeah, you're right. I'm a racist. You got me. But no, it doesn't really work. You got me. It doesn't really work as well. Now you just call people racist because they don't agree with you. But these are also by the way the same people that would go like, you know, Trump's not my president. I'm nothing like our government. But other countries are. Just because you don't believe in comedy, it doesn't It doesn't mean other people don't. People are like, oh, you sell out.

What does that mean? You don't believe in comedy? The magic of comedy, Carl, don't you understand? And this comes back to Bill Burr's thing, where people criticize Bill Burry. She's like, ah, it was a great time. Everyone's laughing. I killed. I killed him.

I said. I'm looking at the government officials. They're chuckling. Hey, what do you mean, guys? I don't know if you know, but at the end of Whitney's set at that festival, everybody stood up and slow clapped. And also, she started crying and she said, we did it. Yep, and they're like, you know what? If I could change.

Let's give rights back to women. Women were slowly removing their headscarves and just tossing them. Revealing their black eyes. I love when a Nepo baby tells comics who grew up poor that they're sellouts. People whose dads have points on huge television shows are like, I have a backup plan and trust fun. You're a sellout. All right. So two things here.

She's calling out Chris DeLeo specifically. He's the nepo baby because his. Dad was a producer, director, writer, and Hollywood on some pretty big shows and stuff. So he never called her a sellout. Like I said, I did some research. If I'm wrong, let me know. I'd be happy to correct the record on this. But I think she's jumping to that conclusion in her own head.

Oh, you're calling me a sellout because I did this show? It's like, no, it's just disingenuous based on the Me Too movement and women's rights and everything that you kind of stood for for a long time in your career. And she goes, I grew up poor. and I was looking through the comments actually because the comments are hammering her which is always funny and I saw in the comments they were just like grew up poor

this woman went to private school in high school and then went off to a prestigious college so I looked it up and the private school she went to is currently $55,000 a year for high school get the fuck out of here

it's pretty nice but she grew up poor okay because her parents gave all the money to the school apparently her parents worked in government She grew up in the D.C. area, which is weird. She also says, you know, she's not like this Nepo baby.

She was just a poor comic who got her start in comedy and had success. Well, if you'll indulge me for one second, I tested for the Christalia role in the Whitney pilot. Oh, you did. I read with Whitney. Okay. I did all the sessions. I was there with Christalia. I did not get the part.

And I remember when I heard that that guy got it thinking, oh, well, that guy's really fucking funny. like he was very good at this he's very funny and i didn't think about it again so when you're a poor up-and-coming comic just get getting her first start able to help all her friends out you make your male lead your love interest this nepo baby you had no problem with it before when you could have given it to anyone in town but now that sort of thing is deeply offensive that's a great point it's not like he didn't earn that role is that like she was told all right we have to cast Kristalea on this. Like you saw that he auditioned it was very good at it.

Yeah. And I think she's pissed that he played the video. I think when he played that video and then pointed to it and said, I'm not going to say anything bad, but they make a lot of good points. I think that was enough for her to feel. I find that really weird that she would comment on him playing it rather and not Zachomico for making it. Cracking me. Exactly. Wow.

I'm sorry. Yeah. Well, and obviously he's not giving any air or flashing any light on that video. but she's also getting bombarded with negative comments from everyone. I mean, just read through her comments, actually. It's pretty wild. So you know that she's feeling the heat and she's taking it out on Chris as if Chris is the one who's criticizing her the most. From what I saw, Chris is kind of taking the high road.

But she continues to hammer Chris Delia. Comics have been doing rants about it. By the way, anyone that any comic who has ever worked with Live Nation, which is all of them, has taken Saudi money. But keep with your little rants. a comic tried to imply that it was hypocritical that I went because I, you know, I did a special about sexual harassment and stuff like that. I was like kind of during the Me Too movement. And it's, you know, it's, it might be a compelling argument

if it wasn't someone who was just bummed that they weren't invited, you know, because he also believes he deserves 72 virgins. Who's that about? It's been making it pretty obvious for us now to figure out who the depo baby is anymore we can figure that out pretty quickly because he was bummed that he wasn't invited that's what makes what she's doing hypocritical got it and 72 virgins i mean that's a lot it's too many they're just jealous she actually is reduced to they're just jealous right it's obviously just jealousy even though there's so many people who are criticizing her for this move and this

live nation thing such a non-starter to get a paycheck from the Saudi government is very different than working with a company that has 5.7% of the ownership stake is from Saudi's public investment fund, which they purchased in April of 2020 and divested in November of 2024, so they don't even own any of it anymore. And Whitney's up there going, well, you work with Live Nation, so you're just as bad. No, that has nothing to do with anything. Like, there's a publicly traded company that anyone can purchase shares of. Right. It's very different.

You're not taking direct orders or direct money from the Saudi government. I support all of the, sorry. Yeah. I support all of the people who say I went for comedy. I went because I wanted to be one of the first women on a stage in this country. I went because this has never been done. I support that. And if you said that's why you did it, I would support you.

Just don't take the money. You don't have to take the money. Go for the comedy and no one will really say anything. Say, mention the hostages you want for you. do something with it other than be a good employee, and I think people would support it. Even what Tim Dillon did shows an initial mistake

but an ability to learn, change, and grow. These people are just incapable. Yeah, Jessica Kerson also had a really rough go with this because she's a Jewish lesbian, and so her fan base is like, you're performing where? For who? What?

And so Jessica Kerson, who's not as big a comic as Whitney or Bill Burr or Louis C.K. people were talking about, she decided to make good on it that she would give all the money she made to charitable foundations that help with whatever atrocities the Saudi government is up to, which is a giant waste of time because I get all the negative PR and none of the money. That's the worst way to play this. Also, I heard a lot of those organizations are not accepting it because they're like, we don't want your blood money. Yes, that that is correct.

The one that Aziz tried to give to. They're like, nope, you can keep it. Yep. Both Aziz tried to give to that. Oh, it was Jessica, too. Yeah. God, I'm blanking on it was. I was talking about with Drew yesterday. But, yeah. So, they're like, we don't want your blood money.

That's not going to work. You can't just make up for this by handing money over to us. But she continues out with her one-aboutism. As always, thank you for listening. When you get a second, Google, Saudi Arabia, Live Nation. So you can be informed on the fact that anyone who has worked with Live Nation, Every stand-up comic has taken Saudi money. Google that, just so that you know what you're talking about.

Or bought a ticket through Live Nation. Or bought a ticket through Live Nation, went to a Live Nation event. All the actors who are represented by William Morris Agency, which is all of them. If you want to send them notes to... Human Rights Watch. Thanks, you, Pencil Nucked. So then she brings up William Morris Agency. Adam, I don't know.

You probably know people who are represented by them. Maybe you are. I don't know. but it's like she said all of them this is crazy what she's doing we have to boycott every actor now and so i looked into this and i'm just like wait a second the saudi government's controlling this agency in hollywood no silver lake's the largest owner of it who invest in a lot of tech out in california and uh abu dhabi has a stake but that's something completely different so i don't know if she doesn't know what she's talking about or if she's just trying to throw

as much shit out there so we just go oh all of it's confusing you're right Whitney, we should be criticizing anyone. I don't pretend to know anything about this, but when she said, throw them your notes or whatever, that's what this is about to me. Yeah, she doesn't appreciate the criticism. She doesn't want it.

And who she's grabbing down into this bucket is insane. It shows you how this happens. She's like, let me just take down everyone I can think of in town randomly. Oh, you got ever heard of George Clooney? I guess. I'm supposed to be mad at him now, too. Okay, thanks Whitney. He's also done things that you can be critical of.

Yes, that's true, John, but we're not talking about that right now. We're talking about what you did. It's a lot of what aboutism, isn't it? Seems that way. And then the producer here, Pat, has the straw man argument of all straw men arguments. How could you, a woman on stage, agree to perform where they don't let women on stage? It's, it's, you know what it is? This is statement, but regression.

of the highest order. They don't let women on stage. No. How could you go? How could you? How could you do this? And, you know, how could you? How could you?

And also. No one's making the point that women in Saudi Arabia aren't allowed to perform on stage. We know that they did at this comedy festival. We're very aware of the lineup. It was announced. There were. Yeah. I don't think that was the point.

they meant to make. But he's just like, oh my gosh, I got the best point right now. Yeah, you know what? Famous Americans are allowed to work in Saudi Arabia. So there. She's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's not the people that were concerned about. The famous American, they treat actually very well.

Listen to Bill Burr, talk about the treatment that he got over there. It seemed like it was pretty nice. They're pretty good to them. That's not the people we're worried about. Were women even allowed to go to the show? There were women at the show. Okay. Yeah.

And listen, Saudi is trying to make changes. to the way they treat women. They allow them to drive now. Right. They don't have to start there. Slow down. They could actually work in certain industries where they weren't allowed to work before.

I mean, you still have to have a man, give you permission to do it. But, you know, they're starting to loosen up a little bit over there. Whitney should be very proud of the progress that they're making. She was a right, rightly so, a vocal opponent against violence against women.

And people are like, we're with you, Whitney. And you know what? We think this boyfriend of yours might be violent against women. And she was like, ho, ho, ho, we're going to rethink this whole thing. That's not how this works. Bill Burr spent a career pointing out hypocrisy to people

in their own lives and forcing them to feel differently about beliefs they've held since childhood and was successful at it. And now these people are critical thinkers. And they're saying to you, Bill, maybe you should rethink this thing. And he's like, go fuck yourself. Shut down the phone lines. No more communication, no more podcast.

I don't do that. That's only for you. you and my buddy Drew Lane he brought up a great point about this because he's also one of these guys just like fuck you Bill Burr Bill Burr's a guy who can never be wrong

no matter what you you'd say to Bill Burr I remember when the the wildfires broke out in L.A and Bill Burr's like everyone criticizing the firefares they did a great job what the fuck is anyone talking about why do you know if the firefers did a good job or not

are you a firefighter but he always said he goes on these late night shows and he always has a strong opinion and he's always right and you can't criticize him because you're a fucking idiot and this one. He knows you can't criticize firefighters so that's the take. People were criticizing

the firefighters out there, not the point. Well, I mean they were roasting marshmallows Bill. And they were very good at it. So yeah, I mean, Bill's kind of lost his way and I really don't think he's going to recover from this and I want to

keep an eye on Whitney and see how she continues to handle this because she's just asking for way more criticism. It's going to get worse. Yeah, she's going to get it. Yeah, I have a feeling. So we'll keep an eye on her podcast and any appearances she makes.

She's handling it well. She's handling it so poorly. She called us racist. I was thinking Aaron Hemholt sucks at gaslighting, but looks like he's pretty good at compared to this. Yeah.

She was on that New Year's Eve stream speaking only truths. Remember that? She was just like hitting all these conspiracy theories and just on the right side. That was not that long. That's right. I forgot. There was like a research, like, whoa, where did this come from? All of a sudden, she's like opening her eyes to shit. You're right. I forgot about that.

And then she fell in love. Yes. Yeah. And she goes on on this podcast to talk even more about how she's just trying to help her audience not be racist. She brings that up again. She doubles down on that. Oh, turns out she is the good guy. Yeah, obviously. Is that crazy? I can't even imagine a scenario where I would just turn on thousands of people just like, well, you're all racist. I'd be like, that's my strategy. Well, have you ever bought a comedy ticket? I have.

You're going to hell. I am. All right. I'm very excited to talk about one of our good buddies. 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. Now, he records this show on Zoom. I was watching clips of it on who are these broadcasters yesterday.

but he doesn't put out a video version of it. He puts out a video on YouTube where you can't see him or the guests at all, but then when they go to video clips, he'll have that pulled up. So you can watch the video clips they're watching, but you don't see them. And I don't know it was because it was hairline?

His face is all over everything. Everyone knows. Like, what is he afraid of? Why can't he show the video of them in this Zoom call? I think the other people on the show don't want to be seen with him. That makes sense. Yeah, that makes sense.

That makes sense. All right. Where do you want to start? Vinny was checking out Tom Myers versus the rest of the world. And I know that you've spoken with Tom Myers directly, of course. Unfortunately. When I wasn't on the show and you and Adam got a chance to have him on the show. We have fun.

You know, here's a thing, Carl, I have brought Tom Myers as the worst podcast, WATP, has covered many times. Because you wanted an easy win. I get that. Yeah. I understand. I hate listening to his show. So just on a principle, I'm upset with Christian and Eric for going on it. You should be.

Because I want to like Eric. I'm upset with that for WATB, but we could both be upset with them for different reasons. Great. Let's talk about this. This is how bad the show is, ladies and gentlemen. I want for those of you who don't know who Tom Myers is just to have a little refresher. This is his awesome chunk on Christy Noem at the start of the show. This is the type of humor that we're dealing with today.

Only security secretary of Christine Noam was denied the use of a public bathroom in a municipal building in Chicago, they have every right to worry. If she squats and starts grunting, there's every chance that an alien will pop out of her snatch and clog the toilet. Imagine being such a fascist

that even cops look at you and tell you to fuck off. They do have the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason, with one of those reasons being Christine Nome's nipples get hard at the thought of a dark-skinned family being separated. It's probably for her safety, as after so many cosmetic procedures,

people would mistake her for a corpse and take her to the morgue. Indeed, Christenome does look like they exhumed a corpse because they forgot to check to see if it was dead first. Do you guys catch any of that? I should have been taking notes. I couldn't follow it.

Yeah, I fucking hate Tom Beyers. Tom, you stink a joke writing. You stink it joke telling. They forgot to check if it was dead first. Double-stinking podcasted. Oh, my God. So, Carl, the introduction that he gives Eric and Christian is going to come in two parts. The first part here is his joke slash virtue signaling.

This past week, a fake poster showing I was one of the comedians performing at the Riyadh Comedy Festival circulated on Instagram. Of course, I was never offered such a gig, nor would I accept it. Nevertheless, I wasn't distressed, as now, if I want a group of people to hate me, I don't have to lift the finger. You get it? No. No. What he's saying is,

someone made a funny picture of me on the internet. And of course, let me just address this. I would never have taken the money to go to Reha. It's like, it's okay, yeah, your virtue's signaling.

But also that last part, he goes, I get people to hate me without lifting a finger. No one thinks that you were asked to play a comedy festival, Tom. There's never been a comedy festival of the world. It's like, we've got to get Tom Myers. Yeah.

And frankly, Tom, you're not likable. You don't have to figure before the Photoshop. But that is, believe it or not, the lead-in to this awesome intro for our friends. Here we go. Clip three. They say that under an authoritarian regime, comedians are often the first people to be targeted. If that's the case also, then comedy podcasts are very high up on that list as well.

So I figure if this show is going down, then why not take another one down with me? So with that in mind, please join me in welcoming our guests here to complete. a swap cast with the show. Who are these broadcasters? Christian Blatt and Eric Zane. I did not approve this. I was not asked permission. I did not approve this.

There's a form you have to fill out. Carl. Woo! Was the exciting introduction? Jeff Heist didn't say a fucking word. And he usually just claps and everything. The best of the like, who are these?

They're like, Pod get out, Brackett! Damn it. Remember the godfather when Fredo's wife is making a scene at the wedding and somebody comes over and they're like, Fredo, you've got to take care of this or somebody else is going to check your boy, Carl.

Right? I know. This is a problem now. If you want me to talk to Christian, I'll do it for you. So I love that Tom inserts himself into every international news story. He's like, well, you know, these regimes crack down on the comedians first. If they do that, they'll probably go out to the podcast. So who knows how long I'm going to be

doing this for? It's like, Tom, you're out on anyone's radar, man. Shut up. You live in America. You're on anyone's fucking radar. and stop it. You're not being oppressed. Now, right after that, our pal Christian is really boring, so I sped that part up. But I also, when you

listen to this, I think that Eric Zane is either lying or has been kidnapped. Thank you for having us, Tom. We appreciated you coming on our show. And oddly enough, the whole thing started just because of a drunken Irishman named Husey. It was a stream where the idea was put out there, and I honestly never expected you to follow up. And I was glad to hear from me that you wanted to come on our show. And I won't speak for Zane,

but I'll say that we're happy to be here. Oh, you can speak for me because it's true. Oh, my God. That's AI. Yeah, right. That's not Eric Zane. Moody must have made that. Oh, my God.

Because it's true. Of course I want to be here. Good acting, Eric. Tom is in our chase. Why doesn't Carl have Christian and Eric on? Is it because Carol can't have any differing opinions on his show? No, it's because I have Vinny and Adam on this. And, by the way, Eric Zanes always welcome to come on the show.

We invite him all the time. So I like the way Zane asks this. Zane comes in hot, Carl. Yeah. Clip number four. Tom, how come if, what is it about you that Carl doesn't like? I'd like to know that right off the bat. What in the, because I don't, I don't say what I like about this question is that Eric Zane's not being a dick.

He literally doesn't pay attention to anything. Yeah, he really wants to know. He really just like, I hear that Carl doesn't like you, Tom. Why would that be? But here's what I like about it. Funny question. What I like about it is he goes. goes, why do you think it is

that Carl doesn't like you, which is pretty smart way of asking this. Oh, that right off the bat. What in the... Because I don't understand... I don't follow it enough, because believe it or not, I don't really pay that much attention. What did Tom say

next? Is it going to be jealousy? Is it going to be political views, maybe? It's probably political views. I think it's all of the above. Okay. Well, I think it's just the fact that I just do my own, I do my own shit

without regard to everybody else and anybody who gets lumped in that, you know, I'm jealous then. If that's what, if, I tell myself that a lot. It's not true, but that's what I tell myself on a, on a semi-regular basis. I see when people do their own thing.

He does. I know, Carl, he sees a free spirit and he's, oh! I'm like, what are you doing, getting led with the rest of them you, prick. It's, you conform. You guys should have seen the speech he gave us before the show started. Lock step motherfuckers is what he said I said everyone read their script

Read it again Because we're starting the show Christian Blatt Personally because he is the only one left After I lost respect for every other comedian After they performed in Saudi Arabia That'll do it You still got Christalia

You know I'm gonna go ahead And just tell you what I labeled my number sixes Uh huh It bothers me how well Christian fits on this show Oh boy Okay I just love having another Mets fan with Jeff to get up on the Yankees fan polite.

Well, that's why Tom scheduled the season premiere for October because he knew Jeff and I weren't going to be busy. We would be available. Oh, boy. Mets jokes. Because they collapsed. Metz, you make the playoffs, guys. That time went into some boring joke about the Baltimore Orioles. So I cut that out.

You're welcome, everybody. Of course he did. My next clip is number seven. Can we trade them Christian? Remember how they attacked President Obama for wearing a tan suit? And that would be the least of the foibles of all the horrible things that Trump has done. So there's a different standard here. And Kamala Harris may or may not have forgotten the words,

but this person clearly did, and that will be ignored. Jeff, in the case of Obama, remember, it was after Labor Day, so that's probably why he shouldn't have worn a tan suit. Be more funny. Now, I can't just shit on Christians this whole time. A weekend. Because for some reason, Eric Zane turns into Jeff Heisen. Oh, no.

Like, you know the Jeff Heisen's thing is he just goes, like after every fucking joke that Tom tells. Sure. Number eight. Yeah, if Gavin Newsom is the devil, then he probably got some of his satanic power from slurping up God knows what when he went down

on Kimberly Guilfoyle Thanks Ed Oh boy All right You know before this show started Someone super chatted Criticizing me For going after Ashley Cummings a little bit

When she was on Point Dabble Point on Monday This is why you do that This is why you criticize people who suck at podcasting It's a very important thing to do When you go out other people's shows Now Carl Number nine, Zane is Jeff now.

Oh, boy. What terminal illness does Dean Cain have that they're allowing him to do this and isn't going to take a suit? Oh, I forgot. I forgot Sane's completely on board with everything they're talking about. I mean, he was given an assignment. He didn't know what he was getting himself into. Jeff is silent, but Zane is laughing. That blows my goddamn mind.

Now, I didn't pull a ton of clips here, but this one is... Thank God. This one is titled, Boo! Still talking about Dean Kane. Okay. Our nation's borders would be more secure if they swore in Christopher Reeve after the accident. Oh, shit. Oh.

Oh, fuck. Sorry. That joke was mostly for Zane, but... Zane loves a joke about a paralyzed guy. He hates Christopher Reeve. It's good stuff. But, I mean, I was listening to this going, why does every, why is they, why are they fitting in here?

Why are they fitting it on this show? This is wild. So at one point, I give them a lot of credit. They try to make the show interesting. And they start telling a story about how, do you remember when Eric showed his, his meat sack on their show? I'll never forget it. Yep, yep, you were very upset.

They start to kind of humorously recall that segment. Okay. Because they watched a video. of a man at a town hall meeting who mooned the city council. Okay. It's funny that we got in more trouble than the time you showed your sack meet for having Tom Myers on the show. That was a bigger, that we got a lot more heat for that.

Yeah, he was like, ah, it happens, it happens. And then he finds out about Tom, and he's like, what the fuck. Did anybody notice his hat, though? That was all Christian. That was all Christian. Tom, let's go back to the video. Yeah. Did anybody notice the guy's hat?

Tom's at the chas. I'll just ask him, don't you edit this show? What was going on right there? Just non-sequenture after non-sequenter. No one's connecting on the conversation. It's very clearly edited. You can tell where he just puts himself in. But, no, I am not the king of comedy in Rochester, New York, Tom.

Edit the nonsense out. Yeah, no, Tom's got you good. Yeah, you sure showed me. But this just drove me crazy because he's like, look, let's talk about his hat. Let's talk about his hat. So, Zane humors him in this next. clip and zane god bless you for no selling this guy go ahead yeah i did notice that it was uh like a i don't know like a beanie with all the colors like one of those little kid like in the propeller

yeah no no better way to make your political point than with a beanie with a propeller on the time wow he almost didn't get it out it was so funny yeah it was so glad that he interrupted the good like funny stuff that they were talking about to uh talk about the guy's silly Jeff Heisen might be worse than Tom Myers. They found each other. God bless him. It's incredible. I'm just kidding, Tom.

You're way worse. No. Why is Christian engaging in this? It was my next question. My next clip. And flip-flops. I mean, that flip-flops, the choice of footwear when mooning for political purposes.

Yes. I said it while we were watching the video, but I'm really surprised that that guy didn't take a shit. I really thought that's what was coming. And I'm glad it wasn't. I, yeah, sometimes you can be pleasantly surprised.

We're glad it was just the ass. And on that note, that's our show. Wow. What a show. What a closer. What a show. I'm glad the guy didn't shit on the floor.

Bop-d-d-o-p-d-poh-poh. And by the way, my last clip real quick is just, I really, Tom, I will give you credit. Okay. You really can read people's names as well and give them a nice farewell on your show. Excellent.

I want to thank Jeff Heisen, polite kitty, Nicole Blessing, Christian Blatt, and Eric Zane. Thank you, Tom. Thank you for having us, Tom. I'm going to call out Eric Zane right now for not saying thank you at the end there. Not polite, sir.

But that was the worst 30 minutes of my day, everybody. You know what? I didn't even want to do that segment. I just wanted to fuck with you, Vittie. I'm like, listen to this podcast of Tom Myers' show. That's the price of admission here. We're cutting all of this out of the episode. At the end of there, cut all of this out.

That was just because... We're not even recording. This was just for you. That wasn't Tom in the comments. I was making all of that up. I photoshop that earlier. Well, good thing I'd go over that bridge on the way home. To answer Tom's question, what do we think...

What do we think, uh, Christian would say? What do you think in his defense, the point is that we were missing that they would be bringing up? What is it? Anybody know? They were playing at the level of the game they were in. That they chose to play in. Yeah. Okay.

If I had to guess. I always ask this. I'm like, what's the end game? What's the goal? So whenever I get asked to go on a podcast or if I'm inviting people on to my podcast or whatever, whenever I'm doing a show with someone else, I think to myself, what am I trying to accomplish? And so Tom Myers versus the rest of the world has been well documented as the least funny political show to ever exist.

And we've documented that on WTP so many times. And we've watched Stephanie Miller. Yeah, I know. And Christian Black goes, we should do a mashup. We should team up and we'll do a WATB with Tom Hires versus the rest of the world, which could be interesting

if you let them know that their jokes suck and their political hacks. Now, I don't know that Christian and Eric are the right guys for that. Probably not. So that's not the angle that they took. So what was the end goal there? What do they think they were going to accomplish with that? Just to be like, hey, we did a show with Tom Meyer. That's kind of interesting, right?

Yeah, because for Tom, he's battling with perceived enemies or people adjacent to, so he's getting closer to something. For them, I'm not quite sure what's in it. I'm very curious. I wish we could know. And Tom, I'm not your enemy. You live a good life down there, buddy. If only Christian Bly was in the chat, he's got...

Well, there's nothing we can do. Anyway, moving on to the next. No way to find out. I wish there was some way we could get him on here. Easy and I appreciate all the attention from the four of you and Tom. It's not the good kind of attention, Chris. Yeah, that's what we're trying to tell you. Bell of a fucking ball over there.

Good for you. We got annual performance meetings coming up. Yes. Oh, geez. You got those coming up? I think I got the heat office, Chris. Yeah. No, no shit.

No complaints for you, producer Chris. I should mention, we do have kind of a hard out today. I have to go to. an open mic. You sure do. In downtown Rochester. Why, Carl? Well, because the Kreefoff hates me.

I love you. I have to do a Stuttering John set. Yeah. And an open mic. And I think we'll all be there, right? I was three. Yep. And I think some other people are coming down as well.

Maybe Jenny Jingles, maybe Lucy Typebox, some other folks. Oh. We'll definitely get some footage of this. There'll be some filming of it. A hundred percent. Channel 10 will be there. Performing Juddering Jans set. Look for it tomorrow on the Creepoff channel.

Wow. Have you figured out how to get your shirt to stick to your top of your stomach for the squeegee bit? You know what? I haven't even practiced it. You might want to get on it. Well, I'm just assuming guys know how to do that sort of thing. You might need to have a few more beers, too, if you're going to do a John's set. All right. Let's talk about the Obster. So, Adam, you might have noticed. I hope we didn't have any live streams late last week.

And I don't think he, I think he missed one this week as well. Yeah. Where all of a sudden he wasn't doing his live streams. He did a Gepphardt's episode that I was watching a bit of that and was really boring and Ron the waiter was there. But it was just kind of like, nah, nothing really happening. And then I saw this tweet come up. that I was taking it back for a second. I went, wait a second.

Say it ain't so, Opster. You're telling me, after this amazing run, you're going to let things die like this. He tweeted, I've been doing this a long time. Time to retire. Last night's Opie Radio podcast, 27 Club and Grandma's Underwear, the link to the podcast on Apple,

which is weird because he has that I-Heart deal, as E. Rock likes to point out. She'd probably link to their app. I get people to download their app for that. And there's a young, fresh Greg Hughes. I just got a notification that says Steel Toes on live right now, and it says it's canteen time. Oh, gosh.

And if you don't know, I had to spin the wheel of consequences this week. Oh, God. And, Vin, I only have two more days. I forgot. I hate you. I forgot. Tell everybody what you have to do. What happened on the creep off?

Well, I'm probably going to get kicked off of this little piggy. I'm probably not friends with Melton anymore because I have to give $100 to Aaron Immol's canteen fund. Wow. So that Eric could get little snacks and watch little videos while he's in jail. But I just remember

there's a sense of urgency there. I have to give him the $100 tomorrow. Or buy his tablet. He tried giving you it out. I said whatever's cheaper. You could buy his tablet for the eight days or you can just give him 100 bucks. Buy a tablet, guys.

You get tablet time if you have a tablet. money and you can't have you looked into this i'm pretty sure you got to like get permission from them to be able to add money i don't think anyone can just do it there's a process i'm pretty sure he'll uh you just wants the money just give him the money it's the same as rumble friday except for he's just like just give me the money oh you're right jail i'm sure he'll take it yeah it's it's i'm not going to jump ready hoops in my mind i was like he'll refuse it because it came from you and then i realized who i was talking about right no way make sure you wish him best of luck so opi posted this saying that he's uh retiring and uh

He hadn't broadcasted in a while, so I was like, oh, is this true? Is he finally... Yep, he retired. That's it. It's done. He finally been run off the internet. And then I was reading his comments, and they're brutal. Of course, everybody, Troy Smith, no one is stopping you.

Bye-bye. Let's see what else we have here. You've basically been retired since you filmed a co-worker taking a shit in a bathroom and were fired for it. Also, the world can clearly see Anthony Cooper succeeded while you are failing hard. It's fun to watch your asset, rich, cash, poor, life. lifestyle, though. Yambag, retire from what?

Jacob Shed, you have zero talent. Did you ever thank Kumiya for making you a multimillionaire? Oliver Tweek, truly one of the best, or truly one of the broadcasters of all time. Amen. It's very funny. You retired like 15 plus years ago, since nobody cares about you anymore, and Kumiya handed your ass back to you in that paper hat, probably a good move. Congrats, I feel bad for Rod the waiter.

So it's like every comment on here, you're such a douche. it's your mom's box and now you're laughed at so I don't know that he got the response he was hoping for he's like hey guys I'm ending it this is the end of my career if you want to check out my last podcast it's available I was like yeah

boy I wonder what his family's going to do with him around the house all the time now family you say oh that's what he retired from it's got some bad news family funny you bring them up yes it's a real bad news for you so all right you were checking out

So he came back yesterday, the 14th. He was back again this morning, the 15th. Of course, Tuesdays are the Opie and Ron show. As Opie, let us know of that programming note. Ron is the co-host on Tuesday mornings. And this was the morning that it was announced Trump had that ceasefire in the Middle East and everyone was trying to out. Hostages were released?

Yep. Big deal. Everyone's trying to what's going on, what's real, what's not. You turn into Opie Radio 10. to get the hot take on this. Yeah, I know, it's, it's, it's, uh, exhausting, but I want to congratulate, uh, vanilla ice today. Yeah.

He, he, he would hit, his slug line back of the day when he was, uh, world famous was peace in the Middle East, he would let his interviews and sogs and, uh, rants with peace in the Middle East and he finally got his peace. Uh, so, uh, so cheers. Cheers. this morning to Vanilla Ice. There you go. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. What? Fuck that. Funnyest thing he's ever said. Good point, Rod.

I got to say, it's kind of a hot take from Ophia. I wasn't expecting vanilla ice to come into this, you know? As soon as the topic comes up, he gets this smug smile on his face. He's not listening. He's just waiting for Ron to stop talking so he can jump in with this gold. Oh, wow. Yeah. He showed us his notes one time. Oh, yeah. He must have written down Biddle Ice. I know, I was like, yeah, okay, this is good.

I'll do a cocktail napkin. I'll do seven minutes on this. After the thing was over, he's like, oh, fuck, I had five minutes on Chaka Khan, and I completely forgot. Shit, I knew I should have written it down. I think it's true that Opie's listening to us, and I think it shows in how he adjust things,

such as all of a sudden we're learning about money that Opie and Ron split. Oh, that's news. Some money, money, money, money. John Courts, thank you, brother. Five bucks. We made $5 to do this today, Ron. I'll give you your, well, after YouTube takes their 30%,

I'll give you half to five, all right? No, after that, it sounds like I owe you. Yeah, no shit. But anyway, what was they saying? So that's kind of a funny joke from Ron. And I get it. Opie's trying to lean into this. I feel like he's splitting the money with Ron.

It's if Ron's ever seeing it die from this. It's like a guarantee if Ron's just like, yeah, so am I going to get some money? I'll be like, it's nothing. I'm really, we're not making any money at all. He's also, he's great at, like, pretending this isn't happening to him. He's not getting the bad money.

He's getting the, uh, Ron's not getting good money. It's him that's making such money. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Aren't you a loser, Ron? Yeah. When you're on my show. Look at your take.

Yeah. Good point. I wish Ron would stop leaning in. I'm tired of looking at a scalp. What the fuck is he doing? Listen, Tom Myers is jealous of that headline. All right? What a young, young, young buck that guy must be all right so this next clip um opie is actually as money's coming in

opi starts counting how much he's going to have to give to ron oh you can tell it's bothering of um i'm i'll say thank you to tommy boy another five dollars coming in uh ron holy shit oh still out here i haven't heard you in years dude so now we've made ten dollars we uh you two will take their uh three dollars so now we're at seven dollars you made three fifty today ron I'm $3.50. I'm splitting. If I get another $0.25, I can get on the subway. What?

If I get another $0.25, I can get on the subway. All right. Maybe we can get that. $3.75. Now, I know Ron's making a joke right there, but Ron actually has a reason to have $3.75. Like, cool. I can get into Manhattan tomorrow. Whereas OPE is just like at zero.

And Ron's like, no, no, no, I would use that for a very specific thing. That would be great. That would be awesome if I had $3.75. Can you loan me the money? money? And we know he's just kidding, but even in his fantasies, he's giving him his cut after YouTube takes their cut. He can't even pretend to split it evenly with him. Oh, I know. I love that he's counting Ron's money in front of him just to humiliate him on the show. It's very benevolent. Like, he's just kind of like holding an over. Can you believe how much little money

you're making and you have to get up at the butt crack at dawn and be insulted by me? You know, at one point, at some point, Ross, you'd be like, yeah, this is kind of shitty, actually. Maybe I should stop doing this. But there are those 35,000 views of people who scrolled past in a split second. And you could have a penny for each one of them, Ron? Nope. You get nothing for every one of them.

Nothing. Well, I see the math you did. Never mind. I'll take it all back. I think this next one is very revealing if you can just play it. Oh, yeah. I had Dave Grohl on the radio a few times over the years. I wish I asked him this question, Ron.

There are times I had a chance at some big fucking stars on the radio and then I think about it every once a while and go, I wish I asked this question. It's a simple question. You know Dave Grohl when he was in Nirvana was trying to hand shit to Kurt Cobain. I got an idea. I got this song. And I have a feeling that Kurt Cobain's like, just play the fucking drums. I got this. And I would love to know what songs became huge hits for the food fighters that Dave Grohl possibly tried to give to Kurt back of the day. I always say the one song is ever long.

I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to give Everlong to, to Kirk Cobain and he just blew him off. Dave Grohl talks about this, and he said, I wouldn't have, like, the balls to, he says Kirk Cobain was the greatest songwriter of our generation. And he said, he talks about it.

Like, he said, I thought if I tried to give Kirk obey lyrics, I wouldn't be in the band anymore. That's what he said. So if he said that, then I would just push back a little bit and just say, all right, but what songs did you have in your little notebook that you wrote possibly hoping that maybe, you know, the band Nirvana can play? He said, yeah, go ahead. No, go, go, Ron.

No, that's it. That's, I was going to, but the fuck. What is that? So, Opie asked a question that I knew the answer to. I'm not a big Dave Grohl fan. I was a Nirvana fan when they were big. And I know that Settlest Apprentice, the riff was written by Dave Grohl. You know, Kurt wrote the lyrics for it because they're ridiculous.

But the riff's not great either. But whatever, the point is, like, I knew that Dave Grohl was starting in the album in Utero, their final studio album. He was starting to collaborate a little bit with Kirk Cobain. and the fact that Opie had two chances to talk to Dave about what his collaboration was in Nirvana and never asked him and then thought no one else had ever asked him either is kind of wild to me

like you you haven't looked up to see if that's been asked before of course it has been. Dave Grohl went on to write all of these hit songs in his own band much more prolific than anything Kirk Cobain ever did he spans so much more time wouldn't you think like hey you were the drummer in that other band and all the hit songs wouldn't someone else ask that question And of course they tend.

But see, that's why O.B. writes down notes now. Right now he's writing the notes down. Right. Missed the opportunity before. And of all the things going on in his life, and of all the signals that fans and Anthony and people are like sending his way about things he could have done differently, he spends time alone in these houses feeling regret over not asking questions like that. That's what's keeping him up at night. Is that odd? No, it's corn dust.

I'm going to just give you up in a night. No, isn't that odd that, yes, he's thinking back to the mistakes he made on the radio. Not filming you're going to take it a shit, you know, or not going to bad for your co-host in 2014 over tweets. No, no, no, no, no. I should ask Dave Grohl what songs he had written before Nirvana broke up. And he just makes up Everlong, which is off their second album, so it's possibly he had that song in the can. But it didn't drop D in there's a lot of open strings. Kirkland doesn't play that style at all.

It wouldn't make any fucking sense for DeVarold to play Everlong. I'm just saying. So does I go too far with that? No, no, no, it's all true. I'll take your word for it. I don't know. There are different bands. There are different kinds of songs.

Who Fighters does, like, inspirational songs. Like, it's not, it's a stupid question that you didn't even want to know the answer to, Opie, because when Ron told you, you had no interest. Yeah, okay, okay, so we do. So we do now, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, let me tell you, I would push back and that I want to ask him. You're right, yeah. Okay. And Dave Grohl would say, please stop attacking me.

Like, I'm telling you the answer. Leave me alone. All right. So Opie, sometimes at a tough time ending his shows with Ron. You know, they don't really know when it's over yet. And Opie's always saying it's over. All right, Ron, I got to go. I got to go. All right, really fast because we don't have to tease, a 24-hour tease.

Basically, there's a company. But I got to go after this, Ron. You're killing me. No, it means we did well. It's having a tough time ending. There's a company called. That's funny. Because normally, Ron will bring up a.

new topic. And Opie's like, I don't know, Ron, I'm going to help my kids get to school. And this time, Opey's bringing up a new thing. He's like, and I got to go. And Ron's like, all right. Stop talking. I'm not keeping you. I enjoy our time together, Ope. Right. Yeah, exactly. And then you have one more clip on here, Adam. Yeah, Opie does what he, that hilarious bit of cutting off his friend while he's talking. The guy from a app, Microsoft, that was the name, but the glasses. the rich guy

I can't think of his name you know I'm talking about not Steve Jobs what an asshole he just ends the stream mid sentence that's pretty funny that is an opi's best at

he should have played crickets that I would have laughed yes all right they were like opi's back so that was the 14th the opi and Ron show he's back this morning

and do you want to do you want to start with clip two and then we'll circle back to clip one yeah because that's interesting that ties into something else that we want to talk about I thought this was a really big reveal about why OB wanted to be a broadcaster to begin with yeah I hate them all Ron to be honest

I hate them all hey I got a quick celebrity story you just remind me of something so back of the day we would come into New York City from Long Island to go to the the Phil Donahue show. I was in the Phil Donahue audience a lot. We would get tickets. As soon as we left the taping, we would mail.

You had a mail back then. We would mail for the next tickets. And you had to wait. You had to wait three, four, six months, whatever. I was on the west side, I think. But we were coming in, you know, there was a string of years there. We were coming in like twice a, twice a year to the Phil Donahue show. Who's the medicine woman?

Do you remember the medicine woman? That's, half the show is them trying to remember the names of old celebrities right yeah yeah one of an amazing anecdote dr quinn is that what he's talking about he's talking about jane seymour okay dr coo was a fictional character i believe okay well could you imagine phil dottahue's interviewing fictional characters hey luke skywalker let me ask you about the force they go too far with that yeah okay moving on rod's not listening to opie when he talks Say, hold on. When you say you and Anthony went on the Phil Dono show, do you mean as an audience member or as, you were a guest?

What part of, where did Anthony come from? Hold on. You said you used to go to the, when you were famous. No, I didn't. When I was, when we were young, we were kids. I was in high school. Dude, I thought he had you on the show because you were famous. No, never. So you were an audience member? Audience member. It was me and my siblings. You know, maybe it was my sister one time,

a couple of my brothers. It was my mom. You're a kid. It was my mom's jam. She really liked doing it. Okay, okay. Dr. Quinn, medicine woman, Jane Seymour. Thank you.

You're in Seymour. So this, this, I want to say the word, this C, this C, you know, I tell the horrible stuff about my mom. but you know the fact that she had some very good qualities but it's boring when when you're doing a radio show or you know they want to hear the crazy stuff obviously but my mom was uh she was solid um but it made friends wherever she went and all that but whatever so we're in the elevator going up to phil donah donahue and my mom just a just a housewife from long island trying to

raise seven eight nine kids she's got her little trip to new york city to see her little phil donahue it's a big hold i gotta pause this real quick Remember when Opie said he had three kids? Yeah, yeah, we're all thinking it. Yeah. It's kid math. His kid math is all off. I was raising seven, eight, nine kids.

I have two, three kids. I don't know. You expect him to keep track of all of them? Yeah, that's really funny. A little trip to New York City to see her little Phil Donny, you. It's a big deal for mommy. And we're in the elevator, right? We just happen to be in the elevator with James Seymour.

And my mom asked her for a little bit. autograph because my mom kind of like that type of thing yeah yeah yeah and jane seymour said no what a bit this c said no to mommy oh come on we're in the elevator it wasn't like if uh if uh we were out in the street and also you you tap her on the shoulder go oh my ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba the bird is the word um or you go babble babble babble can't help himself so jane seymour told Opie's mom, no. And then a homeless guy's cake got stomped. That's why.

30 years later. That's exactly. It was funny that Opie's explaining, you know, these trips into the city with his family to see Phil Donahue. And then Ron goes, so you and Anthony used to go to those things? And he's like, why would you think that? It's like a wishful thinking. I guess he was hoping that this was a story about like when you were a celebrity and you hung out with cool people like Anthony. You said you were a kid celebrity DJ that was famous.

around town. What the fuck? Signing autographs in Geneseo when he was a DJ on the college station. So yeah, you would think he's always been a celebrity. Well, that's why he always signed the autographs. He didn't want to be like Jane C. Moore. Right. Smart. How does him telling a story about his childhood just devolve into like just babble? What is that? It's also very odd to me. Opie has documented how horrible it was growing up with his mom and her mental illness so many times. And now whenever he's on with Ron, who obviously has had more problems with his family than Opie has. He's like, she's great.

You know, I've said some things about her, but actually my mom was awesome. Let's not talk about having parents and family members that are rough. Very apparently doesn't want to have anything in common with Ron. Yeah, he doesn't want to give Ron an opportunity to like, oh, you know what my mom did. You know, he doesn't want any of that. He doesn't want to get one-uped. But then also, he doesn't want to relate to him. So it's very convenient to be like, my mom was great.

And it also is a way for him to lord something over. And my family was great. Yours was shitty, Ron. It's crazy how he was reinventing that his mom was like someone that people loved and were looking forward to hanging out with. Never heard any of these things. Made friends everywhere she was. Yeah, I made friends everywhere.

I never heard any of this on listening to Opium Anthony over the years. Oh, my mom would only take us to see Richard Bay. It was really disappointed. I think we all have an image of a mom that would need her kids to be in the studio audience for live show tapings. And it's a specific kind of mom. And it's not well-balanced. No.

And so you saw Ron was not listening to Opie. Well, Opie's also not listening to Rob. It would be devastating to the United States, obviously. Of course, of course. That would probably break the United States. I didn't listen really to you because I'm stuck on Hot Springs. No offense, Ron, but when you mentioned Hot Springs, it brought up a memory, you know, there are times in your life you're with somebody and you realize you're with the wrong person, right?

And most of us, like myself, you realize you're with the wrong person, and then 10 years later, you break up with them. You murder them. Because you learned enabling from a very young age. What did this missive asshole, hope he is to Rod? Listen, I'm not listening to you. Anyway, let me just say what I was going to say. Yeah, sometimes people aren't right for each other. You think?

Like when one of them gets a mattress and starts acting all uppity. Right. Things I have mattress kind of money. You think I have mattress money over here? Come on, man. well luckily we're going to skip the story he tells and get right to ron's response nice i got rid of her that was one of the most riveting hot spring stories i've ever heard to ope well thank you right not all these are going to fucking hit that's for sure um that's fantastic

i love that and i guess he's earned his spot because for the first time opie does not cut ron off and they end like gentlemen wow is that AI is uh causing all sorts of problems there are kids unfortunately taking their own lives now because they're being blackmailed oh that's because they're showing their wieners we'll talk about it the same all the social all the social

all right almost almost got a plug in there that was fancy of him to do that maybe he just pulled the ripcourt too quickly and he wasn't able to fuck with him oh interesting yeah so I know runs on on Tuesday so he's out on Wednesdays

now too or is this like a special because we had missed them so much. They didn't finish what they had covered yesterday, so Opie gave him the big invite. You know, Opie, Ron has to really grill him to be like, do you want me at Get Parts? Do you want me at Get Parts? I said, do you want me at Get Parts? And to get him to get him to get him enough, he will. So we got to go to the evening Get Parts and do this to finish up their talk.

Okay. We're going to get into Suttering John stuff. But before we do that, there's some similarities between Opie and John. We've watched when John will. watch himself, especially when it's a segment on Howard Stern, and John will pull it up, and he'll be laughing along, and he's so excited to see himself in the studio with Howard and maybe Artie, and they're mixing it up. Gary's getting made fun of, and John's laughing like he's there. It's happening in real time. Gary's got his balls busted again. So Opie was

reliving some glory days on his show, and do you want to set this up anywhere? Beyond that, Adam, you were watching this. No, I think he's with Sherrod, and I'm not sure who the other people are. Maybe you can let us know. He's just watching. He wanted to open the show before he brought Ron in by just watching himself, and we zoom in on his reaction to take it in. This is how it went, and we'll be doing the live stream on the other side of this.

This is quick. Check it out. All right, I ride, I ride. Y'all was talking about titty bars from back from years ago. I love checking years ago. I was racing up in a little town. called Clay City, Kentucky. And this guy said, man, you want to go to a damn

privately owned kitty bar? I said, what the fuck? So four or five of us went out there. First thing right on the bat, I knew it was going to be trouble. The name of it was Sagies. Saggies? Saggies?

Oh, my God. Yeah. So it looks like it's in some guy's backyard. It's like a big old building. And they got light bulbs. Color. The light bulbs are yellow and red, hanging from the ceiling. Right.

And this was back when it was full bush. I mean, full and good. I've been drinking wild turkey and smoking dope, and that bitch got up in the table. Right. And with yellow light bulbs and red light bulbs hanging from the ceiling, and she had a huge bush, I could see her fucking tampon string hanging out.

Oh, God. Oh, God. shit I would have lit it like a dynamite just like a dynamite T and T and T fuse I would let that bitch and watch a blow up Tip accordingly gentlemen tip accordingly I would have been like this light And then

What mom are there Loonington Wild E. It's definitely Vic Henley in there with Sherrod Smile and it must be really funny because everyone's laughing a lot Including Opie rewatching this Is laughing a lot

These jokes are supposed to be really good. I'm supposed to repeat the same joke twice with the TNT. TAMPS. He has that Chevy Chase National Ampoon's Christmas vacation when he's up in the attic watching the other video. Wow. You're right. Look at his eyes. That's splice in with this stuff.

You're right. With it rewatching this stuff. And that was a really good point. Did you yell tamps? One of you assholes did. I forget that Opie thinks the tampons are the funniest thing ever. So as soon as there's like, there's a string hanging out, he's like, whoa, this is going to get. good fellas that means

she's bleeding up in there it says acne on it when you bought beer and stuff it was just in fucking coolers check I love that you're right out of a goddamn cooler oh sure Chuck I love that you're surprised

that it wasn't high class at saggies I hope he's laughing at his joke I don't see a manager they have the nerve to have their beer in a cold at the swing and tick He thought they had Michelin's thoughts.

I can't believe you didn't go there. You know what Opie misses the most right here? The laugh track. Yeah. Having friends. So, yeah, he spit out that line. I can't believe it would be high class. It's saggies.

Nobody wanted to guess his kids. And Henley, Henley's selling it hard, Sherrod's selling it hard. Wow. This guy is so funny. And this is what Opie is missing now. Because Mad at Gapards is just kind of looking out. Like, yeah.

Back when no one pushed back at all. Yeah. they're a tampon string hanging out i would have pulled up my lobs and thermidor at saggies they don't do that shit it over at the fried eggs they know how to treat it go with the fried eggs yeah i got class over at the fried eggs i was it they got it got it's still the best bravo bravo wow yeah i i okay I hope that someday I'm re-watching WATP on my show and just cracking up and everything. Mouthing the words. That's amazing.

What's funnier, fried eggs or Caesar leaves? I'm just curious. Caesar leaves. I got it. Got it. Because it's actually romaine lettuce. You ever see like a pageant mom watching her kid on stage? She's doing the moves.

Yeah, they're not present. They're gone. He has that same look. Like, there's no talking to him. He is in another plan. it. So my buddy E. Rock, Eric Nagel, put this little ditty together, and

this is more similarities between John and Opie. You can't miss it. All we are saying look at Rob. He's like, shake me, such a chance. All we are saying is give peace a

chance. I want loyalty. Wouldn't you think maybe you should be loyal to the guy that actually cares about you and actually put you on? Like, loyalty means everything to me. Everything. So just a couple more similarities that E. Rock's picking up on as he's watching these clips. Well done, sir.

Let's get into the segment everyone's been waiting for. No one loves John more than John loves John, as we all know. And here's another similarity between John and the Opster. Hello. Sandy, don't talk like that. You know, I don't speak Spanish. So what's happening here is that John is re-watching. and his audio screws up and he starts to restream and it's better.

So unfortunately, it's kind of annoying. But John is watching when he recreated grease or these skits. He's watching them with Nasty Neal and Nasty Neal's buddy. And John's very proud of himself. Oh, it's true. This is the best son of my life. It's not fair. Yeah.

Oh, Sandy. No, no. Don't spoil it. Sandy. Oh, Seth. Don't spoil it! It's not spoiling it, Danny. It's only making things better.

It's only the beginning. Look at the glee in John's face. Like he held his child for the first time. He's so happy. Holy shit. He's like, ah, look at me. I did a thing. He sure did.

Wow. Wow. He was transported there. He wasn't, like Adam said. He wasn't there. We have a lot of Cedron John nostalgia coming up But first, I just have to play this clip

I pulled this, it didn't make sense To play it on Drew's show yesterday But I pulled it while I was prepping for Drew's show Because when I was on Point Dabble Point Kevin Brennan They were replaying a clip of Kevin Brennan Inviting John over to Kevin's apartment And Kevin goes

I beg you to come over here, John In fact, I'll give you and he pulls out a $100 bill, you know? And so Kevin Brennan makes a joke because Kevin's a comedian. And John does not get the joke. That's a job offer. Not a Venmo, not a super chat.

Hondo, with your buddy, Abraham Lincoln. Now that's funny. On the cover. Now, now, now, this is where I really will ask you guys. Please tell me, this can't be a joke. Is this a joke? Oh, I'm not allowed to make fun of I can't do

Nigel Tuftanil, right? Because that would be anti-gay, right? Is this a joke? But again, he's holding up Benjamin Franklin and he calls it A. Blinken, I mean, this is the true sign of dementia, isn't it? Soursera?

Isn't this the normal stages of dementia? He thinks Ben Franklin is Abraham Lincoln? All right. John is literally too stupid to get jokes. Because I was watching that clip before I watched John react to it when I was on PDP. And I'm like, oh, Kevin still got it.

That's funny. It's a good guy. John not only went off on Kevin here, but in a later broadcast, he pulled out a $5 bill. And he goes, this is Abraham Lincoln. It's like, we know, John. Jesus Christ. No one thought Abe Lincoln was on the $100 bill. You fucking idiot.

John got so excited. I know this one. I know this one. Such a moron. So on Thursday of last week, John discovered that we have the pro football arm wrestling championship special that aired on CBS. And before he discovers that, because this is going to tie into once he does discover that, some of the things he says, he has tipped off that I declared myself a celebrity. And this tickles him.

He is so excited. I think it was Vegas beer sales Jerry that goes, oh, John, you're going to want to watch this. Carl calls himself a celebrity. Snagletuke says that he's trying to talk about. All right. I'm going to tell you, this is unheard of, okay? But he actually said that he's a celebrity. good stuff so then he decides to like go find the clip because the guy said on the clip

and he's like i don't want to pull it up and play it i don't know why so we watch him watch it and i sped this up because it's silent you can't hear it but watch what happens here um let's see let's see i want to just without playing it on the air here i make sure i'm not on there and i'm on here um i should have watched this first don't violate any rights to public city john so this is let me see so this is him watching it 5x speed okay he said public figure i thought he said that he was a celebrity which is so i got the wrong Intel. Probably should have watched it first.

Probably should have seen what was on there before you just started laughing hysterically. I would be declaring myself a celebrity. But then John doesn't know how to just move on and just be like, all right, well, whatever. The person who told me that thing got it wrong. Somebody said he said he was a celebrity. There's a big difference. Even the fact that he believes he's a public figure is fucking laughable.

Way to say. second. Hold on. If I'm not a public figure, then I can sue John for Slaynor because he said he's a better guitarist than I am. I can prove this in a court of law. I will be needing a lawyer, a celebrity lawyer for this one. I'll take care of this one. No fucking problem. I'll take the case, Carl. All right. Let's do this. Um, so yeah, I love it. He's like, he's not going to help your case, John. Mr. Melendez, this nobody is better at guitar than you. rest of my case, Your Honor. All right.

Let's talk about this. Pro football arm wrestling championship. I want to give huge thanks to producer Joe Frog over at TSN over the Shuling Network because he's the one who is watching this in real time and text me. He's like, are you watching John right now? I'm like, no, what's going on? And so he was watching John discover that we have these episodes. And so John starts walking everything he said back immediately.

And Frog sent me over just a couple of choice clips of what John was saying about this hosting job, the headwriting gig, the network television producer. He was the producer on it. He declared at one point. And so let's just remember John bragging about this. Wrote and hosted the pro football arm wrestling championship on CBS paid north of 24. thousand and somehow i'm a zero in comedy uh the pro football arm wrestling championship for cb s a god just because my own audition my own writing packet if you will when you write from the kareemables you borrow you write in the basketball players voice when you write for the

pro football arm wrestling championship you write in The pro football voice. All right, so remember this. John was the head writer. He wrote the show, and he knew how to write for these pro athletes. He explained the process. Yep. He did a very good job of that.

He made a lot of money. And he also auditioned. That's how he got the job as the host of the show. So, you know, it's really fun to live in Fantasyland and act like you're, you know, the king of CBS when no one has the actual episodes to go pack and refer to them. Well, then he finds out, oh, shit, Carl got the episodes. So watch how quickly he starts walking some of this stuff back and trying to change the narrative. They approached me. They needed a writer for the pro football arm wrestling championship, one with a lot of experience.

And, of course, that's something I do have. So they interviewed a bunch of people, and they picked me, much like the Karima, Blue Jabaros, because I had good ideas. Anyway, then when we got to Vegas and checked out the site, they realized they didn't have a host a good host or the director of this guy Derek who

you know is an Emmy Award winning director for ESPN he he asked me John could you host this and do some correspondence pieces I think too I did I said yeah but then I talked to the

producer and said look if if my if my job has expanded, then I'm going to need more money. I can't forget if I made $25,000 or $30,000. It could even be $35. I know that I think I started at 20, but then

they added on. So I can't remember. It was more than Silent Mike makes in two years. But Joe remembers everything. He's told me that. Yeah, he locks it all up in here. And now we can't remember dollar amounts and he was paid? That's interesting. It's slushing around in there somewhere.

It's surprising. Also, this idea that he went from yeah I auditioned and that's why I became the host to I was hired as the writer and then I went out there to scope it out and the guy's like hey man I don't actually have a host you want to just host this thing for me can you do everything yeah and he's just and Adam you're in show business I am not so let me ask you this seems preposterous to me because wouldn't it be you get hired as the writer there'd be contract signed typically you'd be working through your manager your agent or something and They'd be people reading it over or attorneys, figuring it all out.

And then you get hired to do additional work on this project. They're like, actually, you know what? We appreciate you being the writer. We also are going to need you to host and do some correspondence pieces. John had to go to the producer and say, hey, can I get thrown a couple extra bucks for this thing? Wouldn't there be new contracts written up? Wouldn't there be paperwork involved in this and negotiations and agreements on payment? How about this story that the entire production, like, got into a van, drove to Vegas,

and like Home Alone style, we're like, we don't have a host. Kevin! Why is he there scoping anything out? Why would the writer be in Vegas scoping anything out? They left Mark Summers in an airport. What we're going to learn is that this production ran out of money. Yes.

Before it even started. Yeah. And doesn't have permission from the NFL to be doing it. any of this. Oh, I've mentioned many times. It's the pro football our wrestling championship. I won't say it again. Drew's on the phone. I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. So they couldn't get a host or they couldn't afford a host, and they said, hey, you, will you do it? And I think the fact that he's going on and on about this big sum that he can't remember

means he didn't get any more money. They just said, will you do it? And he said, of course I'll do it. Yeah. So, uh... Okay, I think. Okay, please. There were two producers in a bar complaining loudly about them not having any money. And John goes, I'll do it for 20. And then they went, oh, thousand sure. And he's like, oh, thousand, all right. That's funny.

We're not talking about large amounts of money for network television. No, we're not. With multi-millionaires. Like, everyone who's on this show is a multimillionaire star athlete in the NFL. Except for one guy. Except for that one guy. All right. So John's showing off to his buddies.

Nasty Neil and whoever is hanging out with him. He's like, you've got to check out this promo. And he's not always trying to play this game that... Guys, what was why I brought up? Because people said I wasn't the host of the show, and I was. I just wanted to prove that was the host of the show. So, Judge's changing why this is even discussed. Like, this has been a big part of his resume for a while.

It's always Howard Stern Show, Tonight Show, Kareem Abdul-J Bar Roast, Pro Football Arm Wrestling Championship. OJ signing the Knife. OJ. Signing the Knife. it's right so this has always been a big part of his uh his braggadocious um list that he goes through whenever he's challenged on anything so again i have to prove them wrong so here we go this was the intro on cbs Oh, we fight to the finish, and we won't stop going to we get it.

Oh, we push it to the limit. That's a different one. Hold on. That was pretty good. Spent the money on video. I thought that was the right one, but we'll have to look again. Wow, he wasn't prepared for his own show. What are the chances?

So he found the promo doesn't feature John at all. It's just a band and all the pro athletes and a lot. the cool shit that's going guys like oh whoa whoa whoa get this off yeah you mean the stars of the show yes got it correct so yeah john's trying to say that he doesn't use this as his credits um to let guys like me know specifically he said this to be many times were you ever on network television lady k oh wait he thinks i'm jealous of this and now all this and he's changing that all right so now news flash right so this is lady k lady k snakeletooth And look at this.

Now, this is an obsession. This is an illness. Okay, guys, this is literally an obsession with me and my life, right? So check this out. One of these big memories and a big way to stick it to me. I have amazing news. How was it, first of all, how was it me trying to stick it to him? that is this guy that

egocentric Neil is he that egocentric so me talking about pro football arm wrestling championship is somehow sticking it to him the next day I've been on TV you just do it

you haven't he brings this up every time he breaks up the pro football arm wrestling he's like Carl's jealous he was ever on TV I was on TV I was the host and the head writer and the reason why I use the term

stick it to me is, of course, a Kevin Brennanism. I don't actually talk like that. It's a weird way to talk. So then John claims that all of the bragging about hosting the show that he's been doing over the years has nothing to do with me. And nothing to do. It has zero to do with him.

But he somehow thinks that that I think about him any more than I have to. I mean, it's fucking amazing. Even that is laughable. Three days later. Jesus, the bill's are getting trumped.

He's ready. He's getting a little angry. He's literally thinking about me while watching Monday night football alone in his house. He's just like, this fucking Carl guy's obsessed. He's got to calm down a little bit over there. The whole reason he's showing these videos to Nasty Neal and that guy is because they're both. filmmakers in New York for New York Comic-Con appearing on panels as filmmakers and then going to see some, like, cool George Romero event that night. And they asked him if he knew who George Romero was, and he got so upset that they would think he didn't know this horror filmmaker that he just started showing them clips from anything he'd ever done on film so they would know he's an equal or a better.

Hold on. Let me get my report card. Yeah, that's what it was. That's what this whole thing is. So John is now showing them, us announcing that we have these videos, thanks to General GK. Thanks again, General GK for tracking this down. And so he's going through and introducing who each of us are to these guys who he doesn't think know who we are, even though one of the guys is like really into the dabalverse, one of Nancy Nail's buddies. Yeah, I know all this stuff.

But anyway, he's going in and introducing each of us. And for you, he says you have no shoulders. Have you heard that one? He's not wrong. His joke His joke was Metter Nimoy is going to host a show

to find his shoulders I was like how old is that reference Where Nimoy's been dead For 10 years or 12 I don't even know how long Wow okay But anyway I have been seen and I love it

Yes Do Adam now do Adam now do Adam Oh all right let's do Adam Here we go And this is that Hactor Adam Bush The Hack

Yeah he's a Hactor I mean, and he's a guy He's a guy that I introduced to Howard Stern Put some respect on his name, John. What? Put some respect on his name, John. What? Put some respect on his name.

On who's Stern or? No, fuck, oh, or. Anyway, Jesus Christ. What the fuck is he talking about? Well, John got flustered by that. We were Adam Bush fan of the House. And John's like, yeah, this guy's a fucking loser. Like, oh, the dude from Buffy.

Yeah, no, I know that guy. It's pretty cool. Put some respect on his name. He said it three times, and John did not fight back. Oh, he didn't know what to do with that. Barrow, Wussah. Yeah, he's not used to someone challenging him. Neil, get your friend the fuck out of here.

He would normally throw them out of there. He didn't know what to do. That's amazing. Wow. I'd like to believe that he just honestly didn't know what it meant to treat somebody with respect. It's not about it. Real what? Very possible.

What? So then it's brought up again, me being a public figure. And remember I played that earlier where John was discussing how, all right, that is different than being a celebrity. I thought he said he was a celebrity, but he said it was a public figure. Well, that changes. I'm somehow sticking it to him by talking about the pro football armisting championships.

No, people kept saying I haven't done anything in 10 years. So I said, well, how about this? Okay, but, but okay, let's just get past how he really, thinks he's a public figure fucking this idiot actually believes he's somewhat fake he thinks he's a celebrity it's bizarre he lives in

the bizarro world of his own mind he's a celebrity get him out of there good one yeah so John originally goes oh he's a public figure that's very different than celebrity okay I get it now and now he's just equating the two things together because he wants to rag on me

or something so now I'm an idiot for thinking I'm a celebrity but Hey, John is walking everything back that he said about this show and all of his credits and everything he did to make it happen. He's going to edit it. First of all, I wasn't the producer. I don't know where he was. You said that.

No. I was hired as a writer, but they kind of, you didn't, they needed me to host. So I really, it wasn't about being a writer anymore. It was just me hosting and doing the correspondent pieces. And, you know, because he, quite frankly, the, um, the, um, the, the, um, the, the, the, producer and director, they, you know, they kind of shifted gears because they didn't have a host. Hold on a second. Now he's not the writer? He's been the head writer. The entire time he's bragging about this. He was the head writer. But now he's not the writer because he knows we're going to watch it

and it's not written well. And by shift gears, you mean they walked off the project? Yeah, they fired you? I mean, what are you talking about? Because at first it was like, I was a writer and then they needed me to be the host also then they shifted gears because they didn't have a host and they made him the host is what i think he's trying to say but you remember what he said earlier about the money he goes he goes all right i need you to be a correspondent person and the host too and he goes all right well we need more money and then he got it we're just gonna just give us back the 20 we'll give you the 10 one of those games so yes a judge completely changing his story within the same episode of what happened here so now all of a sudden he's like doesn't even want to take

credit for being a writer on this thing So Disco Bob Ruzek, he shows his head from time to time. He's an ally for John. And he brings out something that John's crossing his fingers and hoping is true. And I, like, because Disco Bob Ruzek, I got to credit him. He said, like, how are they allowed to even play this? Isn't it CBS? I mean, CBS?

You know, like. Yeah, you would think so. So how did they, I missed the part, like, how they got them? Like, someone who was a little fucking dickhead or whatever his name was, somehow got CBS clearance and rights to give them I don't fucking know

yeah we salute you general dickhead we too thank you general GK so he's like yeah Bob Rusick said they probably can't even play it how do they get it from the guy who just clearances

and rights yeah right whoops idiots but John's still hoping amongst all maybe they won't be able to watch it on YouTube and so

listen guys John doesn't even care Even though this is 35 minutes into him talking about this with these guys, I promise you, he doesn't even care that we're going to watch this show. I swear to God, Neil, I can give a frog's fat ass. I mean, who cares? You know, it's not like I'm doing a monologue. I just fucking, okay, and it's, you know, and it's so pathetic.

You know, I'll go over the rules to each contest or whatever, and that's it. Don't ruin it for us, Jen Wait a second I thought that he was the host Who wrote the whole thing And it was this huge special for CBS The comedy All the comedy

All the comedy was the head comedy writer Because of the Cream Abdul Jabbaros They hear so many good things And now all of a sudden He was just going over the rules of arm wrestling And a correspondence piece or two That's changing very much From what he used to say

Yeah he got this on He passed the audition He passed an edition There was several people there, dozens maybe. So it wasn't just like, they were like, yeah, you do it. Now it seems like he kind of regrets doing it. It seems like he's happy it's not out there. Let's not forget he was able to write all of this in the voice of the football players.

Yes, he did say that as well. He understands how to talk like NFL professional football. Could you imagine the producers when they got the script and it started with, Hello there. Fucking asshole He's talking about You're going to see I don't want to say anything

But you're going to see exactly what happened He's talking about his correspondence pieces He does But there are two correspondent pieces I do one Neil stay focused Well I was going to challenge him to arm wrestling And you could post

I did I did one Correspondent piece On Fremont Street in Las Vegas And that was just me getting people to arm wrestle and then the other one I did at the Cirque de Sale show

that and you know where they put like all the makeup on me that's about it and but you know I'm sure they'll edit anything that makes me look good you know because they don't want that I mean you know that they're not going to just do it

that they'll really you know you know I just realized that you do care what did John say that what did John just realize that I actually do give a frog's bad ass about this after all gay he's so worried about this

it's incredible and so you know the guys are trying to help him cope a little bit he's seeing some comments come up there's one thing I can say you know at least I had glory days see this is the funny part about snagletooth

he is, like, so excited for these tapes, but all it's doing is validating my television career. Which is it? I know. What are we talking about here? That's a great Whitney Cummings logic. Yes. Wait, so how are we racist?

I'm confused. So we were validating the last time John was ever hired to work in television. Like, this is the last time he was hired to do anything in television. And he's like, isn't this great? I can't wait to see why. Isn't this great? They're showing why no one ever reached out to me ever again to have a gig. Yeah, it is fun.

And so Nancy Neal asks a very poignant question. He's like, so what embarrassing things are they going to see when they start watching these episodes? Well, done, Neil. Look, if you have any memory, is there anything that would be embarrassing from those shows? Well, it doesn't matter. Or is it just like your typical stuff that you know that you did? Sturton, just typical. No, it's not even doing interviews.

It's just me doing a correspondent piece like I did, but a ton of them for the Tonight Show. Me doing two corresponding pieces and maybe a little bit of, you know, of my hosting, but it's not like, not really, you know, like I'm not on screen that much. Yeah, yeah. That's the embarrassing part, John. That's the part that's embarrassing.

Is that you've been bragging about this, one of your major credits for years. And now as soon as you know that we've, seen it, you go, I was barely involved in that project. I nearly not on the show very much at all. If you're the host, you're hosting the show. What is

a little bit of hosting? Right. Well, we're going to find out. We're going to find out what he actually was hosting. Where are they going to get to the fireworks factory? We're almost there. We're going to find out. The John wasn't hosting a television show. He was hosting certain

aspects of it, but not the show itself. But one last clip. Before we get to do it, this is, uh, it seems that I trigger John. Look, this is funny. He triggers me. He's out there trying to get fucking the, the lost tapes. Who's living and whose head rent free? Three days later.

Jesus, the bills are getting trapped. Just do it. He's getting a little angry. You got me, John. I'm obviously obsessed with you. It's amazing how John has bragged about shit that he thought no one would ever see. He never thought anybody would see the Stephanie Miller shit. He never thought anybody would see this.

And he's been talking about how great they all are for decades. John, this is the entertainment, buddy. This is the funny part. Yes, catching you in these lies is the fun part. Gotcha, bitch. That we get to enjoy on the show. So, all right. I have the ratings.

yeah here we go so oh no yeah this is amazing you gotta love the dabal verse so resourceful so great this is god of the year at yeah mr guy he says here are the weekend sports ratings for 527 2017 and 528 2017 the arm wrestling championship was listed under other the finale never aired oh that's interesting the finale never aired that makes sense it was incomplete It cuts off before the outro So they just canned this thing They're like Are you still working on that thing?

Don't don't bother It's not going to happen So check this out These are the actual The actual ratings Wow For sports that weekend It's incredible people found this for us

So you got the Indianapolis 500 Which did a 3.4 The Another sports I'm sorry another race Monster Energy NASCAR cup a 2.76. Fox Saturday Night Baseball did a 1.41. Let's scroll down, golf had some ratings here. This is the other category. Here we see the pro football arm wrestling championship with a

0.34 rating. I wanted to say this, Anna was asking me about it. I wanted to say that. Isn't that like C-SPAN numbers, Adam? Well, let's compare it to what else is on here. All of these did better. these are all college softball super regionals Arizona versus Baylor did a point four five Alabama versus Florida did a point four six I mean SCC though SEC softball Carl FCC softball

you suck John it's so bad adult 18 to 49 the key demo if you look at the pro football 113,000 on CBS. It's hard to have 100,000 people watching CBS in 2017. You have to turn people off in order to make that happen. Any thoughts there? Adam, I see you're doing some back at the end of the math.

No, it would be canceled if it was a show. Anything under 30. Anything under one is like really embarrassing. It's a couple hundred thousand people. Yeah. Which is accidental views for a network like. CBS. They could have aired a Yule log and gotten the same kind of numbers. They could have put in no effort and still gotten about that. It's really bad. And this production started getting into trouble while it was being made. They didn't ask for permission from professional football. They claim they did. Football says they didn't. When they got word, the players were there. They started to clamp down on the production as it was happening. So it makes sense that they never even aired the finale. All the people at CBS are like, God damn, I knew we should have played softball.

The players were fined because they weren't allowed to be in a casino. This is all aired at the MGM. Oof. So the players were getting fines from the NFL, and some of them were very distraught about it, because they're probably getting fined more money. They're getting paid by CBS if they ever even got paid. They're paying that guy, how much? That's a bad weekend.

Yeah. It only happens a production when somebody is pushing it forward. You know, when somebody was pushing. this forward knowing they did not have the clearance that they needed. It's like shooting in New York City without a permit. You know you're going to get caught. So they couldn't get a host to sign on.

The players who don't know anything about this sort of business agreed because they thought it was cleared. John and their deal with entertainment was nothing. It was just John. We just want to name from the Howard Stern show that we can throw on there.

Anything else doesn't even matter what he does, what he says, whatever. Yeah, it reminds me, it's very similar like John being on wings where you're just like all right you know who's gonna watch this thing I don't know could we get like stern fans to watch it or people like comedy or something like that

and you don't have to give him a lot of money so it's cheap but we'll get a guy who has a name and there's people who know about him so you know it doesn't sound like he used his agent or his manager in this deal either right so that tells me a lot he didn't have one and they would not have let him do this right I bet it was not with SAG

I bet it was non-union and he hadn't paid for his dues and they couldn't get anyone, and they didn't want to pay union rates. All right, so this starts off. The opening credits, people have actually seen this before, and then we'll get into things that no one's ever seen before. I mean, literally no one has ever seen before. But the intro is highly stylized. It's well-produced.

It's well done when you say, Adam. Yeah, I love what they make of John, because it's just what we would have done. Yep. So Lamar Woodley as Lamar Woodley. Yep. Bart Scott, as himself. So those are the first two credits.

Funny. I bet John did write that. Yeah, good stuff. There's John. Getting off the Greyhound bus, very funny. I hate to disagree with you, Adam. That is not what I would have done with him. I would have left him in the desert.

Myself. All right. So they're trying to make this seem exciting. So can I just ask two questions here real fast? First one, how much do you think each of these players was getting for this? Because there's a lot of players they just listed. I counted like 25 or 30. There's 32 because there's two teams of 16. Right.

Silver, which by the way, I'm representing the silver team. Thank you to Kinky Loco for giving me the shirt. Matches your hair. Um, the other thing, I will say that I liked is how they rented one really nice car for that intro, that they were, that they were all in. And they just made John walk from the bus stop to wherever the hotel was. That's the joke. Perfect. And as you can see, it's mostly just branded entertainment.

Like, it is deals they made with these different Vegas establishments to promote them. And that is the majority of what we're going to see are infomercials for these places in Vegas. Yep. So, yeah, so this is the, uh, the, uh, the show. show's first intro and you know you'd expect the host to come out this is why a host would be the host of the show as john's claimed he's the host here we go credit said he was the host all right what brings 32 current football players a couple of former green iron stars and arm wrestling to the Vegas desert baby september like to be the first to welcome me into last Vegas you're about to find out

so that was bart scott one of the team captains yep and the first two credits they showed were lamar woodley and bart scott those are the two hosts of this show anyone who watches the show will know they're the ones communicating with the audience the most communicating with the other people on the show what they're doing and how they're doing it john is relegated to a voiceover for most of this he's not even there with them crazy. He's busy writing an episode of Yule log. It's even worse than that car. He'll get good numbers. He's not, he's there. We find out he's just cut out of everything. Yes.

Yeah, we are going to find that out. Is it because they couldn't afford him? Because he kept wanting more money or what do you think? Yeah. Maybe they're just like, this guy's asking for another thousand bucks. It's got me out of here. Or maybe maybe he was just day drunk. It's also impossible. So let's find out the first John sighting of the episode.

Got a couple of muscles, but definitely not very hard of us. With plenty to compete for, the city of high stakes seemed exactly the place to up the ante. I'm Brittany. Very nice to meet you. Welcome to MGM. Good stuff, John.

Did you write that too? It's even overacting on the poster. The delivery. I know. To up the ante. With plenty to play for. Like what? What do we do? It's a comes out to, like, charity. I'm sure no charity saw anybody for her. He didn't write any of that.

No, he didn't. It's just corporate speak. Of course. He barely read it. Good point. All right. So then they get into explaining the rules and whose job would it be to explain the rules? We heard John that clip say, look at all I was doing.

It was like explaining the rules and stuff like that. So I'm like, all right, well, it's here, let's here John explaining the rules. All right, guys. So I'm Devin Laird, and I'm going to talk about the rules, okay? The rules of the event and the structure it's going to follow. Wait a second. That's not Suttery John. He looks great.

That guy's jawline is way too. Profound to be Suttery John. That's no way. I understood every word he said. Yes, that can't be the case at all. All right. Well, what's coming up on our next clip here, Adam? Are we looking at number five here?

We are. Yeah, you went through this painstakingly, I might add. We appreciate it. Yeah, here John gets a little chance to shine in both his voiceover and hosting duties. Nice. Football is a team game. And while arm wrestling is an individual sport, the team concept was introduced to this event by dividing the players into two squads, gold and silver.

A draft was organized and it was conducted, biggest style. Welcome to the pro football arm wrestling championship here at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Give it up, everybody. Come on. Come on, and I'll hear you. Hold on, that high top on the table is almost as tall as, or the high top on the stage. He's so tiny. It's almost the size of John. It's shocking.

So you send me this to kind of look at, and I saw this and I went, oh, my God, the shot of him from behind. That's the one. Look at that little guy. He is tiny. So this is very interesting because he considers himself the host of the show, but really what we're seeing here, so he's up on the stage, getting everyone pumped up to do this draft they're going to do to start the show.

He's the warm-up guy. This was he was relegated to you on the Tonight Show. He was hired as the announcer at $500,000 or $400,000 or $400,000. He became the warm-up guy before the TV cameras turned on. The smallest warm-up guy ever. Are you guys ready to rock? I'm over here, guys. Looked out here.

In his brief stint as announcer, they only let him do it live once or twice, and then they immediately started having him pre-recorded. And you see that here. everything he says is almost entirely in voiceover which was at the point where they had ran out of money had all these fines to pay and needed someone from the show to just add these specific lines

so we could fucking finish this thing and that's what he did he was the one who was able and legally willing to do it for free it's also really pathetic and we're going to see other examples of this there's no one attending these events so John's trying to get 32 NFL players pumped up you guys ready here

what's going on? They're just like, yeah, man. He looks like Mike McDaniel, trying to get them all excited. Everybody's just staring at him. It's great. I like how he called the gold team, the galt team. That was good, too. Yeah, that's pretty good stuff. You want another take at that? I nailed it. Okay. Indianapolis, Goltz.

All right, let's see. Yeah, he got other takes. That was the best one they got. That was probably the best one. So, now they're talking about picking the teams. This is the time to do the draft. This is where you'd think John would be the one explaining. what they're doing. Both teams had two weight classes.

Light heavyweight and heavyweight. Me and Lamar picked each player one by one until all 32 were gone. Hey guys, well, we're going to start off with the heavyweight. I'm representing the gold team. Bart Scott is way better at this. Just as energy in his presence on stage,

Judge is like, hey, everybody, how you doing? You know, he doesn't know how to just be a normal person. That's why the energy was like weird coming back to him like, yeah, okay, cool. And notice he's completely off the stage. Like, they came on, he's gone. He's gone. Now it's Bart and Lamar, and they're going to run the show.

And Bart's great at it. All right, guys, here's what's going to happen. We've got a gold team, silver team. We're going to start picking guys. See, John doesn't acknowledge that he's on a TV show. He just thinks he's in a big open room, so he's shouting at everybody. You have a microphone. You don't need to shout.

You can just speak normally like this gentleman. Yeah. How is this guy who trained his entire life to be a professional athlete so much better at this than John? Last CTE We don't have to have Less CTE Less brain damage for sure All right

So John goes back a few minutes later And this is his big chance to shine All right Give it up for these guys Come on everybody So who's going to win Team Gold Or Team Silver

When the dust from the drafts This is how it broke down For the Silver Light Heavyweights So now it's just showing These play is made of Team Gold's light heavyweight roster He's not even saying that. He laid eight heavyweights on Team Silver

and heavy weights for Team Gold would deliver this group to the table. Wow. The dawning of a new day and although divided into two teams. And then it's right back to Bart Scott doing the voiceover work. Let's watch John's energy again there though

because he doesn't know how to control this like you were saying. He doesn't know what to say. Come on everybody. So who's going to win Team Gold? or Team Silver When the That's that chemistry

With the players He's been developing Yeah, I know And look at how tidy Is compared to all those guys He's literally looking up at them When he's like Team Gold up there Or Team Silver way up there

Who's gonna win this one? He really has the energy Of the tonight show reunion Oh yeah You know And woke up this morning Come on everybody Got myself a bill

bringing that same energy to this. That's not what this calls for. This is also about 20, 25 minutes into an hour-long 55-minute piece, and this is how much he's been in it. We've seen every bit. Yep, that is true. He's not the host. So then they do a long piece about Las Vegas.

As you said, this is an infomercial. You know, they're trying to get as many people giving them money as possible to make this thing happen. So then they finally bring out the teams. let's bring down the team's first team goal led by the part scott so there's no one they're they're in this theater and there's no one in attendance so this is just a television shoot to your point earlier adam and john is talking as if he's talking to the theater he's talking to the guy in the back row all right are you guys ready let's bring out team goals just like

None of this is necessary. Can I tell you what I hate about that? Please. Is how he goes, the Bart Scott. Like he's talking about a university. That's a person's name. Right. Dude, you idiot.

You're going to see him make that choice, Vinny, on every single announcement. It's incredible. He puts the emphasis on the wrong word every time. Scott. Next up, Team Silver, led by the Lamar Woodley. The split up between the gold and the silver team definitely got everybody's competitive spirit up Hey Marshawn, you want to say anything to this team

You get them motivated? Nope We added two more captains to the mix Marshawn Lynch foot It's funny because again Marshawn Lynch does not talk He famously would go to press conferences And they'd ask some questions

He'd go, I'm just here so I don't get fined I'm just here so I don't can find And John's instincts are Hey, Marshawn Lynch, what are you got for us? Nothing. Fucking idiots. Tell her, what do you have to say about magic? That's so funny.

And notice how great this production is that that actually made the show. Right. Him going, no. Well, because the other guy stole the microphone out of John's hand, another guy who towers over John. And it was just like, I'll help you out here, John. I'll be at the bar. We added two more captains to the mix. Marshaun Lynch for the silver team and James Harrison for the gold.

They didn't fuel the fire, but they definitely fanned the flame. Oh, no. They fueled the fire and fan the flames. All right, we're going to first start with the light. Okay. Who's the little kid? Who's going to hang out with the professional athletes? That's a make-a-wish thing.

Yeah, look at that. Look at that little guy. Also, right there, we're going to first start. What? We're going to first start. Yeah, he doesn't know how to do this. If John was a make-a-wish kid, his first week, should be for a beer.

He's not good at that year. For a first start, for a first start. But isn't it interesting, Adam, that every time they go to these athletes, the athletes have a perfect, they don't put in extra words, they get right to the point, and I don't know if they took a lot of takes or whatever it is, but they can't get John to do it one time. They can't get him to do it right? No, they're just keeping him in long enough to justify using his name in it and not

have it be so obvious that he's gone, even though his role has been replaced. All right, we're going to first start with. the light heavyweights. This reminds me of Adam Crow always makes fun of cop talk. All right, what I'm going to have you do right now is we're going to have you come out of the car right now. If you don't mind, I'm going to have you come out

and step out of the car for me, please. Three steps to your left if you don't mind. You step out right now. It's like all of these extra words for no fucking reason. John's just nervous energy. He doesn't know what he's doing. Yeah. We had this whole elabic bracket system figured out

but these guys wanted to pick up their own opponent. First up, we're going to brag out Tony Jefferson. Come on to the stage, TG. Yeah. So it's already falling apart. They're like, all right, here are the brackets. We have the teams picked.

You're going to go against that person. Like, no, no, no, I don't want to do that. I want to go against that guy. He beat me in the fucking playoffs last year. Our rest of that has. I was like, okay, whatever you want, man. They have no control over the production of that. That's wild.

Yeah. They're also finding out right about now that they don't have permission from football, so they're having to go and remove anything that represents gambling from the shot. Either cover it up or just not have it there. They're just starting to learn this and having to go back over what they shot and go, fuck, we can't use any of this. What are we going to do? Yeah, also there's no team logos, you know, that the photos of these guys are from the collar up,

but it just says Baltimore, you know, so they can't use anything on this. All right. So let's get into the actual matches. And this goes on for a while. It turns out arm wrestling is boring. Anyone who's seen over the top with Slice Stallone? Not as interesting. It's not that interesting.

They over-dramatize that. Winner gets John's kids. Right, yes. He wishes. So we'll watch a little bit of this, the actual matches, and we'll find out that John does have some voiceover work. Like, he chirps every now and again about what's going on. Don't know, Kenny Stills it is.

Classic DB receive a matchup. Chalked up. John to write that? And Tony Jefferson, Jr. proving too strong to see. Talk to what you want to see. Stand up. Stand up. Under your hand.

There you go. Fall, fall. And Tony Jefferson, Jr. proving too strong with his right hand and taking our very first pull of the tournament. DJ, back up. Good writing. This guy won't over the other guy.

And it's hilarious, right? All that's comedy chops. I didn't hear any comedy at all. In fact, this is the opposite of entertaining. I'm not surprised I got a point three-four. And so this is more of him doing voiceover during these matches. Run, back, get back, and back, and back, and back. Look at it.

Just in March Lillard with a good start. Barton Lamarne. are both liking what they see. There's got to be movement. Now they switch hands. Second pull lefty. Keep looking at it. Always look at it.

So this is where John, when he was trying to walk it back on Thursday's episodes, just like, listen, man, I just like introduced a couple things, and I'm not really part of it at all. It's like, yeah, why did you say any of that before? You said you were the host of the head writer. I never thought it would come to light. And the producer. This is crazy.

This is nothing. I knew it could do this job better than John, any of us. Well, you have to assume he had pitched to them I'm going to be the host I'm going to be on stage I'm going to be roughing it up with the guys and giving them shit and they did try it

You know they were like We would love that famous comedian To be in the shot with these players That would look like a TV show Because whatever he provided Whatever they provided him with was so bad They had to cut it out And or ask him to step aside

Hand the mic to the player And get the fuck out You look like you don't belong You're the only one wet and you're not wrestling Yeah these players have so much more charisma than John. And these aren't the quarterbacks. These are, I mean, Kenny Stills was there, but they're not necessarily wide receivers

and running backs. And like, these are like linemen and linebackers. Like, not the guys who you would think to be like, we got to get a microphone in front of that guy. I see what he has to say about this. But they were better than John. All of them were better than John. And so this is the end of the first segment where they're actually showing the action

and a little more voiceover work. And Justin marches on. See what I did there? Two matches and in. More to come. Stick around. Holy fuck. Holy shit.

The guy's name was March. It's pretty good, right? Now you're going to see that they set up that shot. They got him in frame. They lit it. They went black and white. And they shot a lot of shit with him. And they only used that.

Yeah, you're right. Because, you know, John, also famously does those stupid, like, VH1 shows. Oh, yeah. Where it's just, like, those little pop-up quick things. Like, I remember that music video. Cool. And so, yeah, that's what they were going for here.

And this is all they were able to get. See what I did there? Two matches in hand. More to come. Stick around. Stick around. Don't touch that dial. Yeah, what's the last time you heard that on a television show?

I cannot stand that Bugs Bunny fucking delivery. He just did on that. You see what? I did that? Hey. Ain't I? He's the worst. All right.

Get ready for the worst bit. And if John wants to claim that he wrote on this show, I will believe it for this specific bit, his first correspondence piece. All right. I'm here at the cop theater. I'm excited, man. I'm going to go to the makeup area. John.

I'm Eric. I'm out of wardrobe. Eric. How you doing? I'm great. How are you? Good. I have one question.

What is Ka mean? I've been trying. I'm driving by him going. What does that mean? I know it's a Scrabble word. Okay, it is a Scrabble word. Yes. It's also an Egyptian word that means duality.

So our show is all about a set of twins that gets separated, and it's about their journey to get reunited. Okay, now the explain, Kyle. What is duality? Duality. Twins. Oh, twins, okay. Okay, okay.

Let's get you in the makeup. All right. Come on in. Rock, too, good start with this correspondence piece, huh? What's duality? Like, if I have a few in drive. You did it. See how he thought that was a good joke?

And he looked at the camera like, this guy doesn't get it, but we do. That was so awkward, too, the way they, hey, how you doing? I don't do it all right. Cool. No one said, do this bit in the doorway. They were hoping they'd, like, come in like a normal person and you get to see some more. Like, he just jumped him in the doorway with this thing he had rehearsed. And he couldn't even get at, how are you?

He was like, how are you? What does this mean? You don't get my joke. Bids over. So they're promoting this Cirque de Soleil. theatrical performance that they have at the MGM. So again, this is all tied into the MGM, and they're trying to cross-promote this stuff.

And so I highly doubt John had anything to do with this. I bet he was directed to do this because they're like, hey, we got to promote what's going on at the MGM. And this couldn't be more perfect because John is a clown. John is a fucking clown. And what do you do with clowns? You paint their faces, silly. So how many people do you work on each show?

Here at the show, we train all the artists to do their own makeup. I can't even finger paint. Well, that's okay. Where's Gene Simmons when you need them? I can use this. I look so much better. Come on, let's face it. I look pretty good.

Don't you think? All right, don't in. So all of that, the two jokes were I don't even finger paint and where's Gene Simmons when you need them. One of the original takes was I'm quite the accomplished painter. Actually, that's not really what we're going for here. Oh, okay. They asked me to do an art gallery. All right, all right.

We got guys stepping up, man. Next up, CJ Goodwin. Run it. And immediately we're back to actual people who can perform on television. It's not awkward. And it seems natural. That's an incredible take. That tells you so much.

Isn't that crazy? John awkwardly in the makeup chair. You know, he was the clown on the Tonight Show, too, where they dress him up in the fucking onesie bikini, mankini thing, or dressing up as Wendy, from Wendy's out on the street. It's just like, yeah, it was just humiliate this guy. I was just painting his face, make him look silly. If I was the actual producer, he'd be on that stage right now with that makeup on.

Yeah. In front of all those guys. I was waiting for it. Right. Nope, that was just a little side thing, and now he's no longer involved at all. Nothing to do with that. All right, so let's get back to the competition here. and this is

John's time to shine again Dewey Dewey Deccan She's about to get worked out C.J. Goodwin calls out of Dewey McDonald I like the C.J. Doey match up. It seemed to be a bit of an animosity, a little hatred going there, and that's always a good thing.

Dewey McDonald has a huge mouth pointing, so I definitely want to shut that up. The time for talk is over. Who, John? You got big problems now. Big problems. Don't pressure up, gold.

Don't even go in there. It's already over. Waiting for the ref to say go. Damn. And swift work by McDonald. And if he looks like he's done this before, you're right. Okay, John. Good stuff.

So unnecessary. It's not even needed. Waiting for the rep to say, go. Yep. Oh, and now we just did a thing. It looks like he won. Yeah, we saw it. Yeah, no wonder this got such low ratings.

Like, it's not even good commentary. There's nothing about it that's good. It's terrible. Remember when he said, and now talking will cease, and everyone just kept talking. Yeah, you're right. That's a good point. All right.

So this is a longer. clip, but more of John just crushing it. Influenced by golds, Travis Bajit, now turned Denny Me Silver. Come on up, up, up, good. Left hand pull.

Get him off the job. And CJ with good stuff from the opposite sign. We're tied. Does he describing rules to us? He said he was doing when he did the voiceover stuff? Check meet. It just goes.

All right, now we're going left-handed. And then one guy wand over the other guy. Yeah, it's not exciting. It's terrible. And isn't this the gig John was born to do? Like, all he does is talk about broadcasting communications in sports. He spends his entire life listening to sportscasters. He hasn't picked up one trick or one little talent with it.

Nothing. Oh, the only one was, and Vinny pointed this out, when he brings out Bart Scott, the Bart Scott, because he hears the guy say the Ohio State University. that's the one that's a that's a different thing that's not a person it's totally different it's wrong is what he's doing there but you're right that's a good point everything about this john should be shining on this one he watches football every weekend he went to school for television how does he not know how to do this roasting people is in the sports DNA right yeah how do you not even in the room you can say what the fuck you watch yeah you're right someone please get the

Kareem Abdul-Jabbaros, please, I'm begging you. All right. General G.K., can you please find that for us? So I'll play a few more clips from this. It's just, this is like six minutes long. I'm just watching guys arm wrestle and John going, yep, that guy won. Now it's this guy's turn. Team laughs at.

Get the hand up. You're messing with the hand up high. Pressure up. Don't let him get you in view. Again, coin flip to soft. All right, it's pull hand. He gets to choose. CJ loses the toss, so of course Dui's going to use his right hand.

He doesn't even read it naturally. No, it sounds like they had to wake him up for this. Yeah. So, of course, CJ's going to use his right hand. What happened to the guy on stage going, ah, it's giving up for gold team. Everybody's somewhere between me. There's no elephant noise.

There's nothing. What about the guy that was walking into the makeup? thing and he was like, I'm so excited. Yeah. I'm so excited. You shouldn't have to tell us that. He looks hungover. Yeah.

He's standing tall. Go, man. Easy. Yeah. Wow. Dewey's going to be troubled going forward if he can stay righty. Doey advances. They laughed at you, man.

I don't dab at you, y'all. All right. Don't dab it up. You got a whew. How about that? How about that? This is a disaster. I mean, honestly, it's not a John's fault.

This is such an ill-conceived idea. for a television show. Let's just get 30 athletes talking shit to each other. Are we going to mic them? No. Let's just hope we could make sense of something that's going on. You don't think John wrote that for those guys? No, I don't think John wrote any of this.

Oh, because, I mean, it was in their voices, so I assumed he wrote it. Well, John said that he wrote in the NFL player's voices. And then when he found out we had this, he claimed that he didn't write anything, and he stopped being the writer. Right, right, right. And also, I was very jealous. I didn't get to do this, but now I'm not. now I'm okay with that

you're coping marvelously and it's Jalen time team sober again okay I mean I think you get the point it's so bad so here's the outro to episode number one

and of course you're going to have the host John who's going to tie it all together for you and let you know that you're going to want to stick around for episode two because things are going to get even crazier next time on pro football on wrestling champion

The heavyweights step into the harsh glare of the spotlight. We will tee up some side competition. It still ain't come down yet, man. That thing ain't flying out of its in orbit now, man. As the gold and silver team competes, and more than just wrestling. Buckle up. Mino Imano mantra is just getting started. Next time on Pro Football or Wrestling Championship.

How the hell are Lamar Woodley and Bardscock completely outperforming John as the host of this show? They're reading through everything. Coming up next and then they're doing it in unison and everything like that. Jen has nothing new with any of this. We saw him for a split second in the bowling alley taking a selfie.

That checks out. That's the only thing he did. Yeah, that was right before James Harrison asked him if his son ever quefs in his face. You want to go outside? That bit of him

putting the helmet on is the only, or taking the picture, is the only time you'll see him in that segment, which means he was there the whole time. He was doing his comedy. They didn't use it. Just like that the night.

show he went from a star to a writer to a stunt boy who hangs around and says stupid shit that people ignore yep that doesn't make it on air so yeah so that's episode one we have two more episodes now episode two starts off with a correspondence piece that i want to tease i want to play this for us before we move on from this segment because you know you heard john say i did two correspondence pieces one was in the makeup chair so we saw that one yeah said the other one was on Fremont Street. And he goes, I'm going to get people to arm Russell. So let's see the magic.

Let's see the presence that is celebrity John Melend is on Fremont Street. You'd think people would be like, whoa, there's a celebrity here? Just flocking to him as if it was Tuky on its way to White Castle. You would think that's what would be going on. That was a lot of people following him. That was a big crowd. A lot of people following Tuky to White Castle. I hope they make him stand in one of those circles like a homeless person.

He's begging for money. In Las Vegas, the saying goes, what happens here? stays here, and arm wrestling is what's happening. Hey, this is Stuttering's Armulendez here, down on Fremont Street in Las Vegas. We're going to get some people to arm wrestle. Settle some differences.

Let's do it. Who's next? Hey, me, want to arm wrestle. Arm wrestle. Husband versus white, brother versus brother, son versus father. What, you think he's going to win just because he's big of it?

People are looking at him because there's a camera crew and he's holding onto a microphone, but no one wants to engage. You notice that? Yeah, there's about as big of a line for arm wrestling as there is for his autograph. and one of those signings.

There's nobody wants to get involved who's like, who wants to wrestle? I was just like, what the fuck is, uh, Free Monster is annoying if people constantly

bugging you. Uh, wow, you are a natural brother. You're going to be okay with the oxygen? Oh, yes. What is?

Are you going to win? Petibu, good time I'm going to win. Look at her. She is dead here. Look at the fuck. So there's so many characters, too. That's the other thing about

Free Monster, you get the performers who run out those little circles and there's a lot of freak show things going on. And he found like the midget Mr. T. Like that wasn't, that didn't deserve more time on this thing. Couldn't make something out of that. Couldn't come up with a joke for that. Can you rewind just a little bit when he meets Mr. T and look at his mouth when Mr. T's talking? Oh, is he his mouthing? Yeah.

So how do you feel he's thinking you're going to win? I pity fool, course I'm well. Wow, did he tell him to say I pity the fool, of course I'm going to win? This is like, I coached him. Remember when John bragged about his first grade play and he's like, I knew all the lines for everyone else? He's the asshole who's saying your line to you while you're saying it to him. Wow, that's a good catch, Adam.

This is like Bert Kreisher at the roast of Tom Brady when he was reading the screen and he was mouthing the jokes of everyone else was doing. Yeah. You're going to be okay with the oxygen? Oh, yes. So how do you feel you think you're going to win? A piti food. What's I'm going to win?

Look at her. She is dead here. Wait, was that a dummy with John just doing a ventriloquist thing? He's not that talented, no. Lockheumny of a mini-mistrate-dall. Termination. You are you strong, man. On your mark?

Okay. So now, John's arm wrestling, a middle-aged woman. And what we're going to see is performative, John. This is the John that hams it up that he thinks, crushes it. This is when Howard Stern says, when you're trying to be funny, you're not funny.

This is what we're going to sit here. That was pretty good, honey. You want to get a beer after this? We're trying to fire. We return. The battle begins. All right. So that's what we have in store, episode two.

Wow. Coming up. But what a wild ride. What a bad show. What a horrible show that was. They didn't even finish it. I loved to even brag you about that for years. So small victories, right, John?

Megan was out for a while, but I think she might be back. We have, is it gay coming up? We have a Pocadbler, reviews, voicemails. I know we have to run soon, right, Vinny? Yeah, you're supposed to be there in 20 minutes. I'm supposed to be there in 20 minutes. But they're going to put you on late. I'm texting them right now.

You'll be fine. Okay. Yeah. Let's get right into it. We have a review girl, Megan, joining us. Stop, Megan. Hey. Hello.

Good to see you. And Annie's been waiting patiently as well. What's up, Annie? Oh, hello. Oh, hello. All right. We got a round of, is it gay coming up? Of course, it's going to be tough.

Megan, with Aaron spending eight days in the slammer. I know. I wonder if I should make a game about somebody else or just to see what I could scrape up next week. Well, the good news is there's about 50,000 episodes of the Steeltoe Morton Show available on YouTube. You know, I looked. He must have privated or deleted a whole bunch a while ago. So, yeah. All right.

Well, then we'll have a meeting offline about this. I'm sure somebody who has the archives. Oh, yeah. They're probably at the court in Minnesota. Right. All right, let's go, round one. Chad Boozmock says, Chad's a broken man, I would send a link,

but he removed the stream. And Doom's clip was, don't send me a Doom clip. All right. Are Doom clips gay? Adam. Yes. Carl. He hates Doom.

I don't know if he's gay or not, but I'm going to say yes. Chris. Gay. Benny. I'm going out of limb and saying not gay, something else, awful. Annie. If it's about him, it's gay, so gay.

Okay. That doom person is weird. That person's mentally irregular. I, ah, damn it. Good job, Vinny. Well done, sir. You took that round. Oh, I saw that curveball coming.

Yeah, right? Beginners luck over here. All right. Round two. Numero uno, Josh Denny fan says, poor dog. I always feel bad for dogs with big fat owners. I'm skinnier than all of you. I am skinnier than all of you. You know what? I'm tired of this shit. I could beat y'all up. Is it gay to want to beat someone up when you're

called fat, Annie? Is that the right question for this? I don't even know. Okay. I think so. Okay. Gay. Benny. I'm going to go gay on this one, too. Chris. Not gay. Carl. I don't know how he gets to gay from here. I'm going to say not gay. Adam. I'm going with gay, but just so we're clear, it has to be the thing that

he was asked that he's describing as gay. He cannot just say gay in the answer, right? It has to be specifically related to that. I'm going gay. All right. Sounds so gay to say at 38.

Oh, okay, yes. He did something up perfectly, and, uh, I was wrong. Again, I'm 0 for 2. But we got some people on the board on that one. Yes. Good call.

Round 3 coming up. Remember, we have a bonus round that's worth three points. So everyone's still in the game right now, guys. It's not get crazy. James Brashear's family left him with an unexpected financial hit when he paid the Front Street Animal Shelters adoption fees. There was a server error.

So every time I hit payment, it was a server error, and she kept telling me to redo it, just redo it, just redo it. So I didn't. Oh, that'll happen. That'll happen sometimes. And she thinks she's canceling out your payment and it's not registering, but you're paying every time for those two little cats. I mean, it kind of serves you right. Get a dog. Get a real pet next time. Is it gay to be a cat owner? Carl. Yes, he hates cats. Definitely. I'm going to say it's gay. Chris. Not gay. Vinnie. I'm going not gay. Annie. somehow he thinks it's gay Adam

oh it's gay you fuck around with cats you weirdo you deserve it god damn it rack him this game is hard this game is hard this week all right round four

what do we got Vinny's got a purpose so far rushing us he's got three all right he knows how to play all right I'm going to catch up here we go I'm just making it dramatic I mean I'll be totally honest with you.

You're not allowed to commit mortgage fraud when you're just buying a house. You've got to provide documentation, pay stubs, W-2s, all sorts of shit to prove your income. I ain't never committed no mortgage fraud. I don't know, but everybody does this. This is making me feel lumped into a lot of people. You see, when it was Trump, it's a threat to our democracy, and we need to hold people to justice, and no one is above the law. when it's Letitia James, come on. What are you guys?

All right. Listen closely. Is it gay to not commit mortgage fraud if you can get away with it? Adam. Yeah. Yeah, that's gay. Carl.

Yes. That's gay. Chris. Gay. Vinny. Not gay. gay gay just looks like he's going to say gay right there

here we go come on what are you guys fucking gay everybody does this all right we all got a jump on Vinny on that one that's true so that's good round

five I have to copy the link I just realized round five is next what are the scores right now producer Chris well Vinny's leading with three everyone else has two except you car i have one all right let's go actually i started doing this in the car i'm going to tell the audience this even though i shouldn't i started doing this in the car uh 11 reps

trying to trying to strengthen the neck and chin area so you look like you got a solid it's like a circular thing yeah i say you're supposed to stretch and it stretches this whole area here and I do 11 reps three different times so you can swallow better and I shit you not I have such shitty chin area under here that that area was actually sore on Saturday. Is it gay to have neck soreness after doing chin reps? Yes, it's gay. Vinny? Yeah, it is.

Chris. I think it is, but I'm going to. not gay. Carl. I think just doing that exercise is gay. Is that your answer? Gay.

Adam. Yeah, that's gay. That's not a good thing. No, that's a really, really bad thing. Wow. All right. Congratulations. What's the scores right now?

I have tied with Vinny. Everyone else has two except you. Okay, so I'm out of it. So we're doing final round. worth three points. It's anyone's game still. Megan, what are our choices on this one? Or should I play it first? Then we'll figure out the choices. You can play it first. Okay. I'll figure this out one of these days. By the way, deja vu, strip club.

For one cocktail for $25. Is nice to live in a state that has California prices, but Midwest weather and opportunity? And that's my day. I wish you were wrong. I wish I could argue with that guy and say, Well, no, you see, but it's not as much satire as you think. It is. You go to Minneapolis. It is 1,000% California prices with none of the nightlife or anything like that. Are California prices in the Midwest, gay, wild, or out of control?

Adam. I'm going to go without control. Carl. I think it's wild. Chris. I went out of control Vinnie I'm going wild as well

Annie I've chosen gay everyone for this game so I'm going to choose gay All right We're going to have a clear winner Then on this one let's go Gay all the way It's just

How the fuck did it get this expensive It's wild Oh Vinnie By the way Pulling it off Vinny Vinny Vinny Hit my music

Does that Does that be like a second place. Look at me going on. It does actually. My moral victory. Oh, there you go, buddy. We did it.

All right. Congratulations, many. Suck it, Chris. All right, let's keep the good times rolling with a little poke a dabbler action. It's time for everyone's favorite new game show to poke a dabbler. What do you say, Carl and co-host? Are you ready to poke? a dabbler

Zachass hopman what's your next utility to get cut off to pay your bills first of all that's another defamatory statement but that's not the one I'm focused on but no it's a joke when a bank account gets compromised

you have tons of auto pays that you have to correct I love that children's buck when a bank account gets compromised. I have... Oh, the auto pays will stop. Let's see. Internet.

Landscaper. Water company. Power company. John does not have to pay the water company. I live in the same area. Anyway. Credit card. Two credit card companies.

Companies. I mean... You have so many auto pay set up. That's five. That's one afternoon. You know, and mortgage. Boat. Wow.

Our daughter's car. Oh, the made-up ones. We know the chat doesn't pay for his daughter's car anymore. And that's he came with the last two are both fake. He thinks this is so unique to him. I know. No one else has gone through this. It's so stupid.

I just love that as he's like, shit, what else do I pay for? mortgage he forgot because mom's paying that Boats made up Daughter's car is made up Daughter's car Wait so hold on He has to auto pay for all of those But none of the auto pays for those

Are set on the credit cards That he doesn't have auto pay for I'm confused I'm confused as well But apparently it was a lot of work for him that day When his bank account was compromised There's no sympathy Holy shit

Payments that are all auto pay And you've got to change every single one and sometimes some will slip through the cracks especially with a guy like me so it happens it doesn't mean I can't afford it doesn't mean I don't have the money just means

what did John say next here are your choices number one I'm human B the bank should have a better system next it's a lot of work four

poll buddies nerficked and lastly the bank made a mistake and lastly two Adam Bush is a a dabbling all right

I always go first I'm going to just go with next it's a lot of work that's what he was building up to with all that list of things Adam what's it you. I'm going with I'm human, but pronounced human.

All right. And Vinnie Paulino. You know, I'm going to go with Lastly, the bank needs a better system because John likes to blame others for everything. That's true. Yep, the bank made a mistake. I like that. Megan? You know, I was going to go with Lastly, too. No, you were not going to go with Lastly, too. Oh, I'm just kidding at him.

I'll go with B. The bank should have a better system. Annie? I think it's one. All right. Another, I'm human and producer Chris. I went with Poe Buddies Nerfitt.

Okay. So it happens. It doesn't mean I can't afford it. Doesn't mean I don't have the money. Just means it's a lot of work. Yeah. And you're going to forget a few. Carl won everything.

Toll company. In fact, I got to call them now and change that. my car insurance company same thing happened there so you've done no work I think a millionaire would have an accountant so you've done none of the work

it sounds like it's a lot of work and I didn't have it got started yes no his car insurance works out perfectly you find out the next time he gets stopped it all works out great

he's got it all paid so again it happens but then you got a jackass hopping you're such a dumb ass of the day that you fuck

Oh, oh, it's because I can't afford it. Now, that's not it. Swing and a miss. It's a $2 super chat. Look at that sour face. Now I'm pissed. Dixon's signer. That's all for this time.

Come back next time. If you are man enough to book a dabbler. But before the next time, go to patreon.com slash cartiff electric and sign up. Do it. Sit, Eugene, sit. Good dog. Amazing work, Cardiff.

Thank you very much for that. Always a fun show. Megan, I know you like to check out the Spotify comments that we got. Individual episodes. People can leave little comments for every episode. Anything interesting coming in? Yes. I have a couple from episode 664 from last week.

This one's from Dano. Aaron could have been sentenced to be drawn and quartered, and he'd spin it as a win. It's not a bad way to go. Never wanted to go in a nursing home like a pansy. Yep, that is true. Everything's a victory for that asshole. It's amazing.

He's the best. Hercules Rockefeller said, Ron sure is sharp now that he's getting a tight eight hours of sleep. Yeah, that mattress is helping him out. That's a good point. And then my favorite from last week from Sean came for the banter, stayed for the tamps five stars yes a lot of good tamps talk uh maggie i know you have people working in your house you have to run out of here yeah but uh i always had fun i'm glad i could be here i thought

i thought i'd miss the show but i'm glad i didn't how was john milaney how was john milaney he was funny um he his opener robby hoffman i think her name was um she she did she was funny at first, but she did this pedophile joke that was so flat, and I'm like, I could have written something so much funnier because I actually went to college with a pedophile.

Oh, it would have been a very funny story. Can you tell us a pedophile joke in the next episode when you come on? Yes, I'll make one. Okay, good. Very good. But John Malini was pretty funny. You know, it's not like the, it's not like when he was on cocaine, but, uh,

He's lost his fastball. You know, he talked about my dad and talk now, but yeah. This potato tastes real good. It's Carmen. I would say check him out if he can. All right. Well, that was a mediocre review. It sounds like two and a half stars.

I'll say until I have to leave. I can still stay right now. Okay. Andy, do we have any reviews that have come in? Just one. They've slowed down a little bit. But this one comes in from Australia, from the user LJA 316. The title is, great job, everyone.

Greetings from Sydney, Australia. This is a great show. Been recovering from a serious injury and not been able to do much. Carl and the gang have been a great source of entertainment. You have educated me on a number of very interesting characters I wouldn't have found out about otherwise. Keep up the great work and another win for the toe. That is our strongest demographic. People who are recovering from illnesses or injuries, it can't do anything else.

That's a captive audience. Shout out, Pulper. If you can't change the channel, we're the show for you. That's right. That's our slogan. Yep. Until the nurse comes in again to change your pants. I ain't going to jail willingly.

If I can't do weekends, they can come get me on the 17th. That'd be amazing if they hauled them away. All right. Annie, anything to promote? I just want to promote myself. If you want to check out my game streams, go to my YouTube channel. You can find it on Insanity.com. I-N-S-A-N-N-E-I-T-Y.com.

Very good. Adam, anything to promote, my friend? Everybody check out Luigi Greenberg on Friday, shaping up to be a really good show. Oh, really big skeptical robot we're talking about? That's the one. All right, on Luigi Greenberg's channel. Vinnie Paulina, what are you up to, buddy? Well, Carl, there's this little show called The Creep-Off that we do every Monday at 1 o'clock.

Live right here on the W-A-T-P channel. We also have our own channel. And if you become a member of the Creep-off channel, you will get a bonus episode every Friday. This week, we're putting Ian Hopkins, Geno's favorite singer of all time, into the Creepoff Hall of Fame. So tune in for that. I am looking forward to it. Benny, thanks so much for coming on. Dude, thanks for having me.

This was fun. This was fun. Annie, of course, always a great time. Adam. Chris was here. Rock and roller. All right. I got to go.
