Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep687 - Lil Stinkers and The Muckrake Political Podcast

Episode Date: December 28, 2025

This week we’re checking out some podcasts that are doing slightly better than WATP and Who’s Right on Patreon. This is the most petty podcast episode yet. Lil Stinkers is a show that features Mike Rainey, his unfunny friend, and a bean bag chair. The jokes are flying and they’re rhyming so it must be clever.  Doug from Who’s Right (aka Mean Doug) is back on the show to analyze the podcast that’s ranked right above his show on Patreon. The Muckrake Political Podcast is hosted by two liberal zilches who really want to sound smart and say important things. Trump bad, am I right? Opie is back from Christmas break with nothing to say as he relies on Tony P and Ron the Waiter to carry the show with tales of crapping and vomiting. Stuttering John reacts to the news that his youngest son changed his last name to his stepfather’s name. Ouch, that’s gotta be very tough. We finish up with Internet News and your voicemails.

I'm your host, Carol, the $850,000 man with me this week, a man who needs a CPAP machine to eat lunch from the Who's Right podcast.

Also, we encourage our listeners, give us five stars wherever you review podcast and then shit all over us in the comment section. Today, we'll be reviewing a show called Will Stinkers. another one called the Muckrake Political Podcast. And Doug, do you want to explain how we found these podcasts to review today? Yeah, I will, but before I do, it's not awkward at all. You know, I think I've been a co-host on here longer than anybody else at this point. And you promoting this live event and naming everybody that's come on this show after me as somebody that's appearing. Yeah.

So people sell tickets. Those are the ones that we watch at the show. So I went on the Patreon rankings list. and I went to Who Are These Podcasts? And then the podcast that was beating you was Little Stinkers. And then I went to Who's Right. And the podcast that is beating Who's Right. It's called The Muck Rake Podcast.

Yeah. So this is pretty petty, I would say. We're just going to make fun of the shows that are won ahead of us in the Patreon rankings. So in your case, the show that is just ahead of you is called Ressel Me. And it's so bad that it's not even worth clipping. So I went one above that one, which is Little Stinkers. Yeah, Little Stinkers features Mike Rainey and his buddies John DeColo and Jake Matera. And this is three buddies out of Philadelphia who sit down and they each take turns telling a story about some villainy, some little stinker from history.

And they are way too comfortable sitting on a love seat and a chair. one of the guys is a love seat Yes He's a bean bag That's a lot Michael Rade is pretty popular guy He has another show called Dad Meat and I swore we covered it

On WATP it sounded so familiar But then I looked for it I guess we didn't But he's a comedian that He's got like 33,000 followers on Twitter So he's got some notoriety And he definitely Works hard to make the show funny

You can tell right off the intro With all the laughs that are having Welcome back to Little Snickers, baby. I'm Michael fucking Rainey here with Caldangela. What's up, Mothersucker? I'd give anything to suck my mother one more time. Jake and Furman, Matera, how are you, buddy? Seaman, Demon.

Jamie, thank you for producing all of our children and the show. Now, Doug, I'm glad you picked this podcast because you could learn a lot from these guys about laughing. When the host says something he thinks is funny, and you just going, yeah, all right, you know, maybe rooting him out a little bit, trying to make it seem like you're having fun. Mm-hmm. I'm going to practice that when we get to stuttering, John. Okay. That's the spirit. That'd be fantastic.

There's not enough high-fiving on WATP. That's true, yes. Doug, do you have a clip that sums up the show for you, anything you picked up on? So I wasn't real sure how I wanted to present what I brought. So I watched an episode of them doing Shug Night. And then I watched an episode of them doing traveling in a car and another episode of them going to the ranch where Charles Manson lived. Okay. So I started in reverse order. So I think I want to present it the same way that I discovered it, if that makes sense. Let's do it. All right. So my clip one is from Little Stinkers on the road. And my journey with this show has been,

Like, it's up and down the whole time. There's times where I thought, like, clip one, this is absurd that this is beating anybody. But then there's other points in the show where I'm like, I don't mind these people. So I will say they have 11,000 subscribers on YouTube, and these videos get between 3,500 and 4,000 views apiece. So they don't have a bigger audience, but I guess an audience that likes to show out money more than the WATP. So don't try to sour grapes at Carl. They're beating you. Just accept that.

Do what you have to do to get better. Good point. All right, baby, here we go. I have a mind block right now. You do? Yeah, I can't get past the letter C on the NATO alphabet. And I'm really pissed, and I don't want anybody to tell me, but I can't continue my day

until I think of it. The NATO alphabet? Yeah, Alpha Bravo. Alpha Charlie. Fuck you guys. I'm so stupid Delta Echo Fox track, Gulf, India, Juliet. I don't know the alphabet. That's what's beating you.

I love it. I love that that's what's beating you. He really is mean, Doug. It's so mean. It's so frustrating. So this whole car trip video is about an hour and a half. half. And I've got four clips. Hold on a second time. I'm just zooming in on how this really big guy over here, I believe his name is Jake. He's struggling with that seatbelt going across

his chest. He's not sure to put it on the boob under the boob. That's a real uncomfortable right there. This looks nice. So there's a video that I watched of them that I didn't clip is they were trying to take a Waymo somewhere. And the way that those cars work is it won't let you move forward if you don't have the seatbelt on and he couldn't get it around him so the whole video was just them not being able to move that's the one you did clip, Doug?

The audio was horrible I'll give it to you all right you said you said you had four clips here that you wanted to present to us we can just take the whole journey if you want it's Doug so now two three and four all right I know it's one way but I'm trying to get into this line

Oh, gotcha. Okay. A, B, C, D, E, F, G. He won't shut the fucking harbor. So clip three, what I have is, I guess those of you listening, if you're ever at home, and you feel like you want to go on a road trip, but you don't have any friends, and you don't want to leave the house,

and you just want to be bored, just play this video. we got to stop at one of those bootleg Disney outlets at some point yeah we do I'm trying to buy a minky mouse from my girl and he's going to lose weight fighting that seat belt I'm sorry I'm the only thing I can look at these videos now I think I do want to remind you that

just for reference this was the show that is too ahead of you no question for you done because i was looking at their live tab i didn't see a lot of live stuff this is all like edited and then posted after the fact right this isn't a live stream they're doing yeah you can see uh my clip one they have their intro on there right so somebody did something with this so this is what they thought the end product should be if they had a choice opi ask they had a choice to not do this and they did it anyway here's a clip four i think to set up for this this is how they end this episode of their podcast

I'm aware of Yeah he's got a piss No bad Okay Dan station Wawa Panera McDonald's 711

Or 711 is closest to the right Oh yeah It's close to the right you said I'm in the left lane So we'll hit that Wawa Okay You can do it Danny

I don't know It's fucking We're about a notch and piss things But when we Stop podcasting now His and his all right we'll see you guys later do you mind if we stopped back in it no one knew you were podcasting yeah they were making any effort whatsoever yeah let's stop boring people now all right they're talking

about alan iverson you're going to hear AI get brought up he's talking about alan iverson the former Philadelphia 76er and uh I guess he had braided hair back when he was playing in the NBA I mean I don't know AI had those thing that he's still rocking that yeah that strongie yeah that Strongy Longy Dungy is what I call it You gotta say that through If you ever meet Alan Ivers and be like Hey, so brother, come here Show me that Strongy Longy Dongy

Did you see the new? I got a question and I think you got the answer This guy's high Is that what's going on? Should we be getting high before the show? Well Because Strongy Longy Dongy It was very funny to all of them

Yeah It rhymes Very good, Chris John John is going to be presenting on this episode about this guy named John DuPont John DuPont from the DuPont Corporation family

and so he's going to be setting up the topic of the episode I assume you guys all remember this kind of well That was like my first like tragedy I remember Uh huh

It was 96 so you were what nine Yeah about that Nine And it was in in Delco, you guys both lived in Delco at that time, right? Yeah. Who cares? You see how smushty is in that love seat?

I know. I was thinking, did they even attempt to put Jake in the chair? Hey, you guys sit on the couch. Oh, yeah, no fucking way, never mind. So the guy's setting up the story by explaining how old they were and where they lived at the time. Cairs. Goods of shit. Let's go back to the car ride.

Now, they are very silly. They're constantly trying to get some laughs out and say silly things. I will give a quick rundown of the DuPont's family history. Can I also get a rub down? I will give you a quick rub down, too, but it ain't going to be that quick, brother. I like to take my time when I make a man shine. That rhymed again, Chris. Yeah.

Are you not high enough? You need more writing or more rhyming. Yes, that's what we did. They start to talk about the DuPont Corporation and how it started off. Fascinating information. He started the company as a gunpowder manufacturer. Oh, I didn't know that. You didn't know they started in gumpowder?

I didn't know they started gunpowder. Really? No. I guess this is like growing up in Delaware is kind of like Delaware history about the, like, just learning about. Yeah. But that was always like, oh, wow, this started as gunpowder. And now it's the reason I have plastic in my nuts. My dad actually worked for them when they were still making gunpowder.

Yeah. Fortunately, he was ready and fired. Did he actually work for DuPont? No. No, that was a joke. That way. Wasn't? Here's what I think.

What do you think's going on? Okay, so who's the guy on the left? That's Michael Rainey. Yeah, okay. So I think Rainey, I know that he used to be a drug addict. He was an alcoholic. He quit all that. He tried getting sober.

And I think in this friend group here, I think he is considered the cool guy. Yes. I think he's got, in his later videos, It looks like he's got cauliflower ears, so that means he's done some fighting, or at least at a minimum, high school wrestling. So, but I think he has surrounded himself with these people that laugh at everything that he says. Yeah, they're all amateur stand-ups, and maybe amateur is not the right word, but all of them do stand-up comedy. And I think Michael Rainey probably has the most success there. And so that's why these guys are hangers on and trying to glom off of all the fame.

Like I said, he has another podcast that's relatively popular and successful. So he started this one up a couple of years ago with just his buddies So they can talk about serial killers and giggle with each other Something I would never do That's for sure One of the things that I noticed and we'll get into this Is the episode when we finally get to the podcast that I watch Which was Shug Night

Rainy was the one that was presenting And I'm telling you like you can tell he did his research He's not looking at any notes at least nothing on screen. Maybe it's on a dry race board or something. But he goes for the entire hour and a half and he knows names, dates, everything. That's impressive. It is. Stop doing drugs.

Never. That's you can pull off? But I'll save that for later. But I just, that triggered in my mind because his co-host there, you can tell he's reading everything off of his phone. Yes, he has all of his notes there and a lot of mundane, boring stuff

that he has to connect back to him for some reason. He was the father of eight including Henry, who was born in Wilmington, Delaware, same city as me. We don't care. We don't care where you were born. It doesn't make a difference at all. But these boring details get Jake super excited. They moved onto Gene's family's property in Newtown Square called Lister Hall Farm.

It was originally her family's property. Whoa. Whoa! Holy shit, you don't say. See? guess you're picking up of what I'm putting down here. This is what I need from you. And producer Chris, you can be paying attention to this too, buddy.

Well, Jake is clearly the hype man. He is. He is the hype man of the show. So there's a joke that's made for the name DuPont. And I honestly, I don't get this one. But listen closely because these guys seem to crack up over it. Also, I want to add to DuPont, the spelling in case you're confused. Big D, little you, big P.

a lot like Jake's search what I'm going to search. You guys both seem to get that joke. I was just doing what you told me to do before. Oh, no, don't laugh at these assholes laughing at me. Oh, I'm laughing at the biggest muntly I've ever heard. Yeah, he could not get it out. He was just, he was proud. Okay, good.

I was like, I don't even get what a big pee is. I think the joke was that Jake's search history is DP, double penetration. Okay. Oh. Huh. That's the wrong with that. All right. So, following that joke, we hear another great one.

Yeah, his name's Morgan, Big M, Little Oregon. Somebody said that to my friend's brother and, like, third grade and they moved towns they changed schools and moved towns that's why they should give kids guns in case somebody fries you that hard it's like these guys work third shift and they've been up all night yes and this is

what the conversation is like that's the sense that I'm getting too they're like punch drunk or something everything is just so silly and hilarious yeah this guy made fun of this other guy in third grade yet leave that school Doug get us back on track here I think what I heard was

that's a joke that he heard in third grade he's reusing it and this is the show that's beating you but you know in all fairness that means that they're also beating me as you are quite a ways of higher than me on the rank that's a really good point that hasn't been brought up yet I don't know why that I'm the one that had to give it to you but whatever

okay so we're going to jump to all the way back to when they are on another road trip. This time, they are going to the ranch, the Manson Ranch. So clip 10 is, it's a very short clip, but I wanted you to understand how bad the audio is as they present it. Okay. Thinkers, I'm Mike Rainey here with Caldangela. What's up, y'all?

Jake Batera. Slurby, slurp, slurp, slurp. Okay. Okay. So it's very muted, very, all right. So now clip nine is, The longer version of that, and I've enhanced the audio. Got it.

Thank you. What's up, Stinkers? I'm Mike Rainey here with Caldonjala. What's up, y'all? Jake Batera. Slurby, slurp, slurp. We're here at El Coyote Restaurant. The rumored last place that Sharon Tate, J. Sebring,

Voitevrykowski, and Abigail Folger ate before they were murdered. And we're here to avenge their deaths by finding Charles Manson, beating his fucking ass, giving him a wedgy, giving him a wet-willy, and probably rubbing our dicks across his cheek. and we might even draw a dick on his face we'll see how things go but first we're going to shit our pants give ourselves diarrhea and we're going to head inside so tune in on the next diners drive-ins and die okay so I left all that in there because if you remember I said my journey with them was love hate so far it was still hate even even coming out of this um so I made a game

so they're going into this restaurant I made a game called booth or table what is the fat guy gonna do we were all thinking it it's a fun game all right so my clip eight okay fat fuck waddles in floorboards cry booth or table

what will he try jam the booth and not be able to breathe or pick the table and the chair snaps beneath booth or table all right you guys want to wager any guesses so picnic bench is not an option I was going to say I'll be in the toilet

all right I'm going to go with table I'm picking table on this one I got to go table producer Chris is also going table the answer is clip 7 but before you play it you have to pay attention because the shot is obstructed he is hiding behind something

okay all right so we're sitting in the Sharon Tate booth there's no indication that she's definitely ate here the night before she was murdered I think they just realized that a lot of fucking morons like us would come in here and request the Sharon Tabe booth

so they designated this space to Sharon Tate booth Okay, so people If you didn't see him, he's hiding behind the menu So he's in a booth And unfortunately I believe that most of his belly is on the table And so what he's done here is he's pulled up his menu and put that out of like a blanket

So you can't How much of his tits and stomach and his body language is saying, oh, does anyone notice? You guys aren't looking at Mike, right? Thank you for the slow zoom in on that, too. That's amazing. So, I mentioned earlier, real quick, I'm sorry.

Oh, go ahead. I wanted to say, if you go to clip six real quick, there was a composition or a compilation at the end of the video that showed a bunch of pans and zooms and unused B footage. So it shows what he was hiding under the menu. Oh, great. Yep, just what I thought.

Man. Surprise the table was at an angle, and I will just sliding down birds down. Jake, the menu says it's for sharing. I just saw this in the chat, and I wanted to point this out, because as I mentioned, I'm like, I swear I covered this guy before.

Sounds familiar. I'm an idiot. Wapio says, you guys covered little stinkers back on episode 360. Oh, oops. So we've already covered this show, apparently. I just totally forgot. Well, that's why we know, though. It's good to know.

We're getting a little update of little stinkers. I wasn't the co-host then, was I? Oh, I hope so. We got to look that off. That'd be hilarious. Well, that was a fantastic game, Doug. Good production. Where are we going to next?

The only thing that I pulled from them actually at the Manson Ranch is clip five, which is Jake struggling, struggling to just sit. She was still, I guess, kind of running shit and just trying to make everybody really like, look, we just fucking hang out. No presidents and show them. Oh, you're making me feel bad for Jake now. God damn it. Jake, can we get your shit to figure it out, man?

come on they have ozimicking stuff now no reason for this does make sense that vini was our co-host video was the co-host okay I went to go rebeck and listen to that probably um all right yeah Doug I'm starting to feel bad

for Jake what uh what do you think the LBs are in this man 498 he might be over 400 yeah can finish the Chris says yes definitely over 400 yikes um all right

I'll get us back on track here with the DuPont story, John DuPont, and there's a hilarious snowglob joke because we are coming up on Christmas time when this episode was recorded. Yeah, that's why we got all that plastic in our knapsacks, in our ball bags. One of the nice things about plastics in your balls is I like to shake it around like it's a Christmas. Like a snow globe? Snow globe, yeah. Remind me not to be here when you guys decorate the tree this year. okay so so it's rapid fire jokes not everything works you know sometimes even they're like okay that doesn't make sense but they're talking about these uh you know the microplastics that are in your

body thanks to the dupont corporation and i don't think you can see through a nut sack i've never seen that personally so i'm not sure how to keep trying i'm gonna stretch real thin i'd really try get the flashlight out but uh here isn't a joke that gets big laughs and i have no idea What's going on? A childhood hobby of his was bird watching, which I can't think of a funnier childhood hobby for a future confirmed bachelor to have. Yeah, he's really into bird watching. Make sure you don't take your dick out of the journal next to him.

What's going on? I thought bird was like a, from the UK for feet. That's what I thought he was referencing up to that point. Okay, yeah, but then they're by calling him gay, right? Right. So why would birdwatch? All right, anyway, I won't overanalyze it. I'm sure it's hilarious.

So they're talking about this guy, John DuPont, who, you know, grew up as a multi-millionaire, and he went to college to be a zoologist, and then went off and studied birds. Go to the Philippines. As an ornithologist, John DuPont is credited with the discovery of the discovery of two dozen species of birds. Do you think he actually did that or that he bought his way into the ornithology books? Okay, so Mike poses a question

that was not researched by John and it throws him off big time. He's like, oh shit, I didn't think there'd be questions like this. So they struggle. This goes out for way too long. What do you think? I don't know. I think it's just a rich guy with binoculars

looking at a seagull and be like, yeah, John, that's a new bird we haven't seen. He just sees the same bird 24 times? Yeah, it's, uh, yeah, ocean parrot. Write that one down, yeah. Yeah, we got John recognizing fucking ocean parrots, yeah. Ooh, man, glad you're out here. Two dozen species.

They're all extinct now. They live in Canada. Don't ask about it. Shut the fuck up. He's buying pizza. He's funding the whole fucking trip, all right? I never even considered that. Damn, that is, I wonder if there's anything to that.

I'll never see nothing like it, John. Yeah, real bird pioneer. You found another one. They have a little, one of those fucking, like, New Year's Eve, confetti sploters every time he. Another birdie over there. Oh, John, found another bird. Ring the bell.

You know, we've covered some improv podcasts on this show before. This is next level, yes, and thing. Yes. You know, just let it go, guys. Yeah, the tagging is taking too long. You're thinking about it a little too much. doing a great job. It's not getting funnier.

No, certainly not getting funnier. You know, you said it's next level. That reminds me that on the Patreon. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're the level lower.

That's a good point. Speaking of tags, this one has way too many tags, and don't worry, there's also a terrible Trump impression in here. Have you seen a clip of Trump getting the honorary sheriff badge? Like a month ago or something stopped by,

We present you as an honorary U.S. Marshal, and he's just sitting there at the desk going, I did it. Yeah, like, we love thee. Now, John, you mentioned this being a tight-knit relationship, and I just want to add that tight-knit is my favorite adult-themed crocheting series. Isn't it so fucking tight? I'm going to sew.

I'm going to crochet. I think your thimble is stuck Where do you want me to put it in my tin full of buttons? The fuck Tinful of buttons This dude is fucking corny What the fuck was that? Dog save us

Here's what I noticed One, on your clip there If you look at their blinds So somebody has taken a picture I'm assuming that's DuPont And hung it up as if it's a picture on their wall On their blinds which means that this has also been processed somehow.

Yes. They decided this is the final product. This has all been edited. This is not a live podcast by any means. They can go in and edit out their endless tags that don't go anywhere if they want to. They choose not to. And it is produced by his wife, by Mike's wife. So she might just think everything's hilarious.

She better. This is why you don't surround yourself with yes, man. This is why you don't let your wife anywhere do your podcast. But that'd be a lesson. All right, Doug. Are we finally going to get these guys doing a podcast, or is it just them on the road? Nope. Now they are going to be talking about Shug Night.

Great. So I don't know if yours is early or mine's early. But mine has better audio, a better set. It looks completely different. Sounds exactly the same. Weird because, yeah, this is from like a month ago, this episode that I pulled from. So, okay. So they didn't do anything with the sound.

Doug 21 will be, uh, I think I just wrote that Jake is a yes man. So, but all of your clips say Doug, you don't have to say that part of it. You can just say 21. I'll figure it out from there. You're a dickhead. Researching this stinker, man, it brought me down memory lane because this,

a lot of this took, took part in my musical heyday. Okay. You remember this action from. television, magazines. A lot of magazines, a lot of word of mouth, and just banging on wax. Hell yeah, dude.

I think he means by that. I have no idea. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Yeah, what about that watching birds think? Can you explain that one? No, I didn't understand that one either. All right, good. So what does every podcast have?

every good podcast dynamic personalities a topic banter banter was the word I was looking for that's a good one too clip Doug 20 is

do you think eventually like if a turtle gets turned on his back do you think eventually he just becomes embarrassed at himself and just stops just like retreats into his show

pretty good stuff that was right that was right in the middle of Shug Night talking about Shug Night killing somebody weird let me tell you about a dream that I had

honestly Michael's working real hard on this show he's constantly trying to think of something to say that's witty or interesting or that one just a left turn for no reason but maybe just needs to like relax and let it come to him for a minute every now and again

so do you think that's the case he's just trying way too hard yeah because everything I watched was him trying to tag jokes or come up with jokes or say something ridiculous about his ball bag being a snow globe or whatever. Yeah, by comparison to the other two, he's trying hard. Yes. Remember I said that it was a love hate kind of thing?

Yeah, yeah. Where's the love company? I haven't got to that part. Okay. My clip marked 19. Yeah. All I wrote is this clip made me hate them. And I'm already like two hours into watching these guys.

But it's just because of the word bro. Oh, okay. Like I said, it brought me back to my musical. heyday and bros i remember listening to one of the albums have you ever heard that used like that hey bros no maybe it's a philly thing brother we love nothing no probably not so one of the here's what i figured out i think mike in this particular episode anyway like i said he did a bunch of prep so everything that he is going he's not referencing anything that i can see and now he has to make everybody else feel stupid

for not knowing the things that he knows because he referenced it. So clip 18 is him talking about where Shug Knight went to high school and then asking his two co-host, who else do you think went to the same high school as Shug and then making them guess?

And I fast forwarded a lot to try to shorten it, but it was painful. He really did well in football. He went to Linwood High School. You know who else is an alumnus of Linwood High School? No. Warren G.

Maybe that's all. Linwood is halfway, it seems, between L.A. and Compton. Wait. Not O.J. Nope. Is it an athlete? A.C. Collins or whatever his name is? Oh.

Not a rapper. Nope. Bill Specker? One more guess. One more guess. I'm going to delay this. I'm going to. Jake, would you mind taking your penis out to give me some time?

Put in my thinking hand, please. Put in my sucking mouth. I don't know how we're going to do this, but John, we'll figure this out. A musician in the 70s could not have been Charles Mansson. They were a kid at that time? Or they were, like, were they also a 90s musician? Oh, Flea. Weird Al Yankovic.

Jesus. He was a fucking inch. Damn. He told us already. Why would he do that? I don't know. And for so long. I didn't read the Wikipedia page, man.

Help me out. What do you got? You're the one who studying this shit. So, you know, you mentioned the Rainey tries tagging everything. Tries really, really hard. So they were talking about Snoop. song murder was the case. And then they transitioned into talking about Shug Night for two seasons, I think, during the NFL

draft played as a scab player in the NFL. And then the movie, the replacements, was based off of that time period. Okay, so that's the setup for number 17. I wonder if their replacement is based on Shug Night's life. He's shade Falco? Murder was the replacement that they gave. me. Don't run.

Come me a home run. I'm glad you set that up because I would have been like, yeah, I just don't get it. That's this whole show. Yeah. I just don't get it. Where's the love part coming in? I'm still waiting for the love part. I think it's more about his personal struggles.

Like, I know he wrote a book and the struggles with drugs and alcohol and what I went through. And I don't know, there's a parallel there between, you know, we both had drug and alcohol problems he wrote books i started overeating you know it's like they're just a parallel i think the love part is that they're beating us on patreon god damn it okay so jake the fat one yeah um where you have been talking about how he's he laughs at everybody's jokes and all of that so clip number 16 is him he he fires off a a banger of a joke what it doesn't doesn't land at all. They tag it. And then he gives his, his customary laugh. But I want you to watch the last couple frames. And you can see that, like, it pains him that he is, in that moment, he realizes, this is what I'm here for is to give these guys laughs. And I want you to watch the smile leave his face. It's very quick. Okay. Halloween, 1987, Sugar Bear gets into a little bit of a trouble. He shoots an acquaintance with his own.

gun. Initially, he's charged with attempted murder, but eventually those charges are downgraded to misdemeanors. He ends up getting three years probation. Wow. Big mistake. Yes, he's... They could have been in the bud right there.

They could have, man. More of a trick than a treat, huh, John? What was he dressed as? Dracula. Ooh. Okay. It was hard to see at the end, so my clip 15. is zoomed in on his face and slowed down.

But watch the smile drain from his face at the very end. What was he dressed as? Dracula. Everybody eyes. Poor guy. We're just zooming it out of every frame. Look at all of Fannie's. It's and a seatbelt.

Look at everybody's these bobs with a joke. The least little stinker. The most. Now, these four guys are great. We're being too hard on them. All right, Doug, what's next? So I got the sense that they were trying, they're basically modeled themselves

after last podcast on the left. One person per episode knows what's going on. and then the other two are there to add the comedic relief, I guess. So, what's his name? John? Yeah. John is the comedic relief. He's the, not the fat one and not the drug addict one. Okay.

Okay. So Rainy is doing his best to try to get through this whole Shug Night thing. And then out of the blue, John drops in a would you rather, which is completely unrelated to any. Anything that they've been talking about derails it for about five minutes. So clip 14 is the would you rather, and then I sped it up. It's at 50 times, 50X speed up, where I'm speeding it up. And then I just kind of dropped the needle.

I just picked a few random places and then 50X again, so on and so forth. Vocal chords. So he talks with like a severe rasp now ever since the accent. Is it the seatbelt that got him? I don't know, man. Damn. Save lives, but ruin careers. Would you rather be dead or have your, um, your penis permanently stuck in your throat?

And you had to sound like that. Oh, my. Talk. Now, the balls stay put. But, like one of those things that hang back there, like the fucking, yeah. And there's extra room because you got your tonsils out when you were in your teens. So your tonsors are essential. But if you're a guy that ends up getting his dick stuck and his throwing an accident, odds are the entire state's going to know that.

Shug's working it ruthless. He ends up starting his own publishing company called Funky Enough. So I wouldn't be great if just one guy just went, that's dumb. Yeah, not answering that question. So that's what I was going to say. That's the beauty of, that's why your show runs as well as it does, is because you, don't allow people to do this. And as soon as you start getting a hint that somebody's going off track, you rain them back in.

Yeah, because you can't have a penis down your throat forever. You can get that removed as much as he's like a spoon might do it, maybe surgery. It's a dumb premise. You know, maybe I, if we could give them some advice, maybe they should start covering steel toe and stuttering John at the end so then they can streamline best past this shit and get to that part. Yeah, it's the important stuff. Exactly, right. Think about the thumbnails.

Doug Gentson. That's a good point. Oh, let's see. I pulled number 13 for you. Oh, thank you. I can't see. Hi, guys, I know podcasts are for listening, but sometimes we do some funny visual shit. Nope.

I try to explain myself, Doug. That gives me the most shit for once we switched to a more visual format on this program. Yeah, I gave up on this one. I relied on a lot of visual. I said, fuck it. I don't. If you don't care, I don't care. Perfect.

I like it. All right. Number 12. So they are talking about Shug Night intimidating people at parties. So when he'd walk in a room, the mood would change. And Jake comes in with, I would say, a banger of a joke. This is probably his how. he makes his money with this type of shit.

Okay. Every time he walked in, the party vibe changed. He would have to be in like some kind of jackass type full prosthetic. Yeah. To actually enjoy the party. Yeah, he would have to like show up in white face. Who is that seven-foot mum-um over there, dancing the night away?

Hello! Mrs. Dad's Fire. Boom Be more funny Mrs. Dancefire I think that's fire Like you know black people say That's fire

Okay Is it funny now Yeah it's getting better I liked that I was watching Because you said it up that he was going to have a banger So I was watching the gears turn in his head Yeah There's something here right

You could see that he was thinking Stop fucking talking so I can get this out. Yeah, he was just waiting for his chance. And he got it. Good for him. Good job, Jake. Prouty over here. Most exercise he got all day. I've only got one more from this episode. It's number 11, and

it's just showing that Jake has his finger on the pulse of America, or at least on the finger of the pulse of pop culture. Shortly before the source awards, a friend of Shugg's named Jake Robles ends up getting killed in Atlanta, and

Shug is convinced that Puffy was behind the murder of his friend. Whoa. And if Shook's convinced to something, it happened. Puffy doesn't strike me as a murderer. Right? Oh,

oh, la hot a lot. Damn it, what didn't he do? He needs to watch the 50-set documentary that's on Netflix. Right now, I recommend it. Even if this came out after, I don't know when this came out as compared to the documentary,

but it's long been known that dead he was into some nefarious shit way before that he shot a woman in the face yeah he got his party to take the rent for it could happen to anyone sure why not um now Doug we mentioned that these people are uh stand-up comics yeah and so i don't know if they're professional i don't think they are i think they have day jobs and stuff but i'd be interested to know if you did any research into uh the comedy stylings of any of these fine gentlemen So I've got a couple things from Mike Rainey. One is he posted this clip as is. It's number 23.

He posted it. It's the only clip of his stand-up on his social media. And it's as it's posted. And it's what? As it's posted. I didn't do anything. Got it. We went to Alcatraz yesterday.

So fucking cool, man. I love that place so much, man. I don't know what the inmates were complaining about. That place is beautiful, man. Between you and I, I can think of a lot worse places to get. my cheeks busted out than that kind of fucking panoramic view imagine you're getting your back blown out by Al Capone it's the golden hour the breeze is hitting you right dude I might fucking arch my back I'm arching my back into Alcapone and grabbing him by the neck

Hmm. See, I guess it's because, like, normally straight guys don't like getting fucked in the ass. So what he's saying is, this place is so beautiful that I wouldn't even mind a dick being in my butthole. Thanks, Carl. Yeah, I think that's what he was going for there, right? Now it's funny. Now you guys get it? Pretty good stuff.

All right. Well, how can we hire him? Does he have an agent that I need to work through, manager? you got to give it to the guy man at least he's trying he is he's sober he's trying he wrote a book i'm very happy for him okay you want to shit on him some more yeah yeah let's do it okay so he was at skank fest and he participated in a roast battle oh no shit yeah so he went against robbie goodwin okay uh so what i did is i took the entire roast battle and cut out anything that wasn't mike grainy talking perfect

number I'm sorry number 24 24 you got it all right rain you never done this why are you doing this to this guy you know he's done he's a kid I've done this before by the end of this rose he's going to go back to his hotel room and kill himself oh shit Robbie you have the eyes of an ISIS executioner the hair of a baby

chimpanzee and the demeanor of an autistic pervert you say um as if i'm not all of those things i want you to notice if you remember i said how impressed i was that he went through that whole shug night episode without reading anything yeah and now he doesn't go through this roast battle without not reading anything yeah yeah he seems to be stumbling out a little bit too maybe we should have written in a larger font is that rich boss by the way this is distracting me okay Rich Moss is there judging this. You couldn't be any more off-putting if you were standing here wearing the skin suit of Dalton Pruitt's dead friend.

Speaking of which, when Shane got fired, Robbie made a very lame video mocking him with an impression. Fortunately, it didn't get any traction because every one of Robbie's videos eat shit so hard that YouTube flags them for scat porn. I get it Robbie's parents are wealthy He's from Boston And he lives in Brooklyn If all those things were ingredients for a recipe You have everything you need

To make unlikable faggotts stew I guess Does it remind you of Tom Meyer's style of writing jokes It does You're right Going for the outrageous Like ah there's an effsler in there That's good

Why use a few words When a lot of words will get you there Yeah the scampone one wasn't the word It just took so long to get there. Robbie, you have all the qualities of a school shooter, although I don't think you could pull it off. That's mainly because as soon as you burst into the classroom with Sandy Hook with a trench coat and an AR-15,

an army of first graders would wrestle the gun away from you so they could blow their own heads off before you could do your Adam Sandler impersonation. Whoa. I've been judging these for a long time. I don't really like it when judges do this, but I think this is one of those battles where we might need one more Robbie's family is from Afghanistan

and his Muslim mother is such a whore that when you greet her with Asalam al-A-Lakam, she responds with, I love come-salam. A woman. 100%. I'm kidding. It doesn't because it's 2-1. Your winner is Robbie Good one. Whoa. That was rough.

I just said it was interesting. I didn't say it was going to be fun. I guess you got to know the people or something to make that work. Yeah, those are some wordy jokes. jokes. Okay. We'll move on? Yeah, I'm ready to move on. So Jake does stand up too, right?

What's Jake up to? I only pulled his opening joke. He's got a special on YouTube called the soft touch or soft one, something along those lines. I made it about nine minutes in, but it's just, it's all fat jokes.

Good. Clip number 22, but they're not good fat jokes. Oh, okay. Damn it. This is exciting. This is what I decided to wear for you guys and I'm sorry I just came from a Roseanne theme party I was Becky it was great that's the laziest form of stand-up

when you come out there and comment on the clothes that you're wearing or your hair cut or anything you could have done anything differently with if you wanted to so I disagree I think he he had the right approach come out and acknowledge the look I know I'm fat so let's laugh at that and then get past it and move on to my jokes. But he doesn't.

He comes out and he says, I'm fat. I'm fat. I'm fat. Still fat. I don't smell great either. Struggle with seatbelts. I wrestle the seat all the way over here. Lost.

I'm going to say it's a, I don't want to use the term tight five, but it's a solid eight minutes of just jokes about the outfit that he's wearing. Oh, Jesus. all right so uh you're saying he's not great at stand up well he's better than me well there you go he's got that going for him very good and the podcast is better than us yes this is the show it's doing two slots better than wTP on patreon uh Doug anything else from the show you want to talk about before we move on uh look a couple things here so I did see I didn't know if it was going to come up uh you can pay

$25 to Mike Rainey and he will record a private video for you. That's nice. Man, why don't you look into that? Is that like a cameo kind of thing? It's like a cameo kind of thing where he's doing it privately on his website. So you pay PayPal him $25 and tell him what you want to say and then he'll send you a video. I wonder if anyone does that. That's interesting.

I'd like to see some of those videos. See what kind of hilarity gets up to in those. and then I was surprised. I clicked on his live shows, Mike Rainies, and he's got dates scheduled in Philly, L.A., Boston, Chicago. So he's working. Oh, good. Okay, so he's doing a lot better than setter in John as a stand-up.

Oh, and John Zumach. Okay. I'm doing better as a stand. Okay, fair enough. Just saying. That's impressive. That's good. So, yeah, like I said, he's got 33,000 followers.

He's got kind of a name for himself out there a little bit. Yeah. He's doing good. Is he headlining? these shows? Is he featuring? I don't know. I didn't look any further. I don't care. Fair enough. You're the one to offer the information. I can have a follow-up or two.

Cool. Thank you very much for checking out little stinkers with us, Doug. Again. Again. Apparently. And the other show that's ranked above who's right on Patreon is the muck-rake political podcast. This one has just over 2,000 subscribers on YouTube. The hosts are Nick Hosselman and Jared Yates Sexton. And I watched an episode that they did recently on the Epstein Files getting dumped.

That's a political show. It's a political show, left-leaning, political commentary podcast. Doug, maybe you want to start us off with what you thought about the show or something that maybe sums up the show for you. First of, I'm going to regret all the jabs I was taking about them beating you. These guys saw This show is terrible Yeah, this is one of those shows This is hard to clip

Because I don't care about their Political takes at all It's like To sum up their show It's like, okay, so Everything that Trump does is bad So if you like Trump, you're an asshole Or you're a racist or you're a Nazi

Everything that Epstein is bad so if you disagree with that was it okay I see what you did there I'm going to be anti-opsteed all right so my clip number 34 is again I'll ask what does every good podcast have banter all right clip number 34 I know it's hey everybody welcome to the McCray podcast I'm Jared at Sexton. I'm here with Nick Alston. Nick, I know we usually do the banter here at the beginning. Bad weekend. We're coming off a bad weekend. Not only do they do banter, he acknowledges of it's badter. That's copyrighted. Have you ever heard, like, I've never heard that used, like, in a serious context. Normally, it's the bullshit, like I used it the same way on my show that you do on

yours, which is like, okay, now we banter, sort of thing. But he's serious about it. Banter. All right. All right. And now, now go to my number 33. So he just said that they had a tough weekend. There was a bad weekend.

When you add it all together, it's like we haven't had a weekend like this in a long time. And we have a lot of bad weekends now. I mean, over the court, like, you know, we have like mass shooting weekends, which we're going to talk about that. We have tragic weekends, fascistic weekends. I mean, like, it is, we're finishing. out 2025 on on some bummers. I had to look up

what a fascistic weekend was. That one caught me too, fascistic. Is that where there's a lot of fascism going on over the weekend? That's what it is, exactly. The fascism party this weekend. This weekend, this weekend,

and I thought that it was, it was interesting that he used it as an either or with, you can have school shooting or tragedy. Or a political movement I don't agree with. Okay, so, what do you think was the

event that happened over the course of this particular weekend that they were looking at their schedule for their show and you know what we're scratching out banter we're going to skip it because of what happened I can't even venture a guest Doug am I going to find out the answer? No I'm going to sit here and make

you make you guess all right yeah we're going to do it just like number 32 we'll give you the answers but we're recording this on Monday December 15th last night Sunday night later in the evening it came across the wire that director Rob Reiner and his wife

actress Michelle Reiner producer Michelle Reiner had been seemingly murdered I guess I should have know that one seemingly murk they had holes all over them like all their blood is out of their party

the worst murder murder suicide pact and it was I'll stab you and then that's funny so go ahead No, I was just going to say, yeah, it was Rob Reiner dying is what scratched off banter from this week's episode. God damn. That is a rough weekend. I can understand why that would happen.

Well, they're talking about video files existing within the Epstein files. And so Nick asked the question that there's no way Jared's going to know the answer to this. Now, if they lose the video now or do the, what did they have with the secretary, he was able to reach across her desk and press erase while her foot is on the thing. I'm sorry, this is an old poll, but what was Nixon's secretary's name? Remember? Oh, man. Tough ass today.

Yeah. I know. That was tough. Anyway, the 18 minutes that were missing from the tapes in the Nixon White House were the result of somebody having to be so flexible like plastic man to be able to press the both buttons the same time to erase this. So what we're going to hear in these clips that I have are both these guys trying to be the smartest guy in the room?

and you can tell that both of them are pretty dumb. So, for example, they use these analogies that are useless and pointless, such as this one. It's like being on like a frozen lake, and you see like a crack start, and then you see another crack start. And there's not a lot that you can do to keep the ice from falling in, right? At this point, it's literally desperation. If you lay flat, it spreads out over the surface area to stop the pressure. pressure from yeah that is something you could actually do yeah go figure uh here's another one that uh is just annoying and there is a point with these types of stories that they reach terminal

velocity right where all of a sudden it's like you cannot put you know the snake back into the the peanut brittle can it gets what the fuck is he talking about talk i prefer to say you can put the shit back in the horse but yeah the snake back in the peanut brittle can can doesn't work It doesn't make any sense. Yeah, it's not a single use. Yeah, those things, you can't put it back in the Peterborough cats. They're made to do that. Yeah, right.

Precisely, what they do. So it threw me off because he started with the terminal velocity reference, which I'm thinking, okay, falling. So something's falling. Yeah. And it's not falling. It's getting shot out of a can by a spring. Right.

But you can easily load back up for the next time. That isn't anywhere near terminal velocity. Well, because we are talking about, Jeffrey Epstein. And I don't know if you know what this guy's been up to, Doug, but apparently it was a bit of a child molester. And he did some sex trafficking with minors and things like that. Allegedly. Allegedly. And so these guys have some hot takes on how they feel about people who associated with one Jeffrey Epstein. If Bill Clinton is guilty of doing these things, take it easy, man. You deserve to go to prison. And you deserve everything that happens to you.

And we'll get to Larry Summers in a second, and I would love to see that guy behind bars. And every other one of these people, whether it's an academic or a scientist or a university person or a finance person, if you were involved in this disgusting shit, best of luck. This guy, he says, even if you're a university person, I don't like you for blessing children. I know you have needs, but come on, man. Norman, I like those university people. But fucking children? That's where I drop my line. Well, sad, sir.

Because the problem is that they're, like, talking about how this is going to screw Trump and Trump's done because of this. You know, it's one of these things that we heard for four years in Ohio, and now we're hearing it again. And so he goes, by the way, if other people are molesting children, I don't like them either. Yes. Finally, someone comes forward. It's a good stance to have. You're good, Jared.

What else did you pick up on from this show that's better than yours on Patreon? So maybe I went in with a little bit of a cynical eye. I decided Nick, I like Nick less than Jared. Yeah. And I think it's because of his vocabulary, my number 31. Okay. Just as a parenthetical is across the wire, the son, Nick Reiner, is arrested for a murder. I don't like anybody that uses the word as a parenthetical in a sentence.

It was unnecessary. understood and then also it's the second time that they said it has come across the wire as if they are fucking cnbc over here they're in a fucking they're in their house and using the internet like everybody else yeah they they're they pretend to be journalists that's like the you know it's the muckrake podcast so they're the ones who are getting to the truth of things they're the ones just in i got to take the dog out right they're looking at the same AP as everybody else but they're the journalists who are figuring it all out all right i i have an example of just nonsense that you're talking about, Nick.

He doesn't even know what he's talking about here. This very well could be part of that as well, where this is what they're afraid of is they're going to realize that they started that up again or something where they had connections and clearly Trump did not realize or did not hold whatever X-in was guilty of against him, basically. Yeah. Jared didn't know he was done talking.

He's just like, oh, yeah, yeah. What you just said, sure. None of that made sense. none of that connected at all my next clip number 30 is another example of that where he what i wrote from my notes is he just says things because the statement that he makes they don't follow up on for the course of the rest of the episode okay um but i would be remiss if we didn't make a direct connection to his where he started as meathead and all in the family because that is a show that does have some interesting connection to like where we are now okay

you don't have to make it about his career it's okay yeah so i think this is according to them the reason why they are hit so hard by rob riner's death is he he stood above all other celebrities in that he voiced his politics oh yeah you know he was he was very left-leaning yes whereas most other celebrities um most other celebrities steer clear of getting involved in politics because they don't want the backlash. Or at least they're like cooler about it. Rob Ryder was fucking unhinged. He's losing his mind for years about Trump.

So my view of it was I don't think Rob Reiner stood above anybody else. I think that this last election it was like just one celebrity after another being brought out. So what I did is my clip 29 is them talking about

that and then I just went to YouTube and the first video that I found I just did celebrities voting. That's it. Okay. Oh, absolutely. And he's a throwback to a time when influencers, quote, like him, would actually be politically active and have a voice and lead because most people now are reluctant to do that in that setting because they're afraid of, you know, losing business. Celebrities are taking sides with some of the biggest names throwing their support behind either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.

Matt Damon and Lynn Manuel Miranda. Nick Offerman, Jane Fonda, Tiffany Haddish, Cardi B, and John Legend, Spike Lee, Aaron Sorkin, Hulk Hogan, Kid Rock, Dana White, Chris Jansen and John Voigt, and Roseanne Barr, Jason Aldeen. But other than them. But I've heard of all of these people. These are all huge celebrities. Do you say they also go out there and speak their mind politically? But other than the Rob Reiter also. That's funny. All right, so Nick says something very stupid. Jared can't believe this. And they're still meeting and

spending time with each other and doing things and going up to oh, what's the place, the beach resort? Yeah. Long Island. Long Island. Like Martha's Vineyard. Well, that's retarded.

What's the beach resort where rich people go? If you play that again, you can see Nick's face like, why are you laughing? Yeah, right. I think he's Trying to think of the Hamptons, would be my guess. To, oh, what's the place, the beach resort?

Yeah, Long Island. Long Island. Not like Martha's Vineyard. What, what, what are you living there? That wasn't a joke. I'm the smart one. All right. Let's talk about some of the politics that they have.

Of course, they're talking about these files getting leaked in all these photographs with Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. and so they're jumping to conclusions immediately on this one because a spoiler no one who's picking sides on this because they're shit about the victims I don't see one person just like I just can't believe how many victims there are do you see the ages of these girls like no no one says that they're all just like yeah and then there's a there's a proof that he was on the airplane with them and then they went to the island got you got to 1993 it's like were you concerned about what they were doing when they got to the island no you just want the guy that you don't like to get in trouble okay cool but yeah this is them just jumping to wild speculation And it kind of feels like there is indications in these emails that Epstein was in contact with Trump at some point, way after he said he had a following out and he'll pick him out of his club or refuse to let him access to his club and all that stuff. It kind of seems like there's indications that Trump and Epstein might have had communication after 2004. We got like, yep, yep, yep. What does that even mean?

The kind of seems like there's indications of it. I want to point out what the description of this podcast episode says. It says, they connect the dots on fixers, blackmail, and the culture of impunity. They do none of those things. They're just like every other idiot on there going, yep, Trump's a lot of trouble that we got them. That's because there's not just smoke here. There's fire. And one of the reasons why this like gains so much momentum is because Donald Trump appears to be caught.

dead to rights in this. Or so they help. I like that he goes, there's not just smoke here, there's fire. No, the saying is where there's smoke, there's fire. That's how that works. Can you believe there's also fire with all this smoke? Yeah, that makes sense. So Jared says a lot of stupid things.

Yeah. If you're familiar with the trailer park boys, he's kind of like Ricky from the trailer park boys where, you know, it's all water under the fridge, that type of thing. So my clip number 28 is, I think, the dumbest statement that I caught him staying. Yeah, and, you know, it's bad enough. I mean, this is one of those human tragedies that you just look at. And there's no way whatsoever to feel good about it. What's the silver lining on this Rob Ryder murder?

Anyone got anything for that? They might have been sleeping at the time. Sleeping well? So I think there's two thought, like two thought paths that you could go down in response to what he said, as opposed to what human tragedy that you can feel good about. That's the first one. Okay. Cover that. And then the second one is in 2005, Rob Reiner put out a, he wrote and directed a movie called Rumor Has It.

It had Kevin Costner, Jennifer Aniston. The positive of Rob Reiner being murdered is that there will not be a rumor has it again. It would not be a sequel Right to that movie All right Well, there you go See? Yeah, it didn't take that

That long for you to figure out What he was saying there They play a speech by Jamie Raskin Who's a Democrat Congress person And they play this speech by him And then they get done with the speech

And listen to what Jared says All the Patriots today Are in the Party of Democracy Wow Cool, cool. Nick, I need a moment to compose myself. I'm sorry, there's a lot of brain math that I need to do in that statement. What in the hell do you think is going on here? There's a lot of... What is brain math? Brain math that I need to do with that statement.

Basically, the speech that they just played is this guy saying, hey, if Marjorie Taylor Green is out of the Republican Party, she's welcome to the Democrat Party, want to have a bigger tent. We want everyone to come in here with their ideas. If you're for liberty and you're for progress, then be part of the Democratic Party. And I would think these guys, who are Democrats, would be like, this is a good message. Like, yes, we want all of you to come join in. And I thought when he said he had to do brain math, he was trying to figure out how big his party's going to become. Because wow, this is great.

Everyone's going to be joining him. But then, Jared actually surprised me with this take. First of all, that Raskin soundbite, when we're done and I get out of my chair that I sit in, I might not be able to walk. You'd be able to go in front. No, I mean fall down because I feel insane. That's a great list, though, and off the top of his head. it sucks it sucks shit and like to sit there and be like we're the party of liberals and progressives and concert get the hell out of here and for anyone who's just like oh my god i'm so happy marjorie

taylor green's going to join the party man i i don't want anything to do with the democratic party anymore next like this seemed like a really good speech like he mentioned a lot of cool things that i'm really into and charit's like i would have murder everyone this fucking sucks So I don't think they're on the same page on that. It's another weird analogy that didn't land. I'm going to fall down because I'm insane. Yeah, I won't be able to get up and walk. I thought maybe had a boner?

Yeah, that's going to be really embarrassing. That speech gives you a boner? Is that one? I can't get up right now. So over on who's right, we record an episode, a public episode once a week. We do bonus episodes on our Patreon once a week. We do video games. We do deer flabies.

We watch body cam videos. these guys are beating us. These guys are beating you on Patreon. They have more supporters. Now, how often do you say that Trump's going to get arrested and go to prison for the rest of his life on your show? Well, I can tell you it's about to go up. Exactly.

That's what you need to be doing right now because these guys are constantly talking about that they got him. This is it. Clearly, of all the things that he deserves to be prosecuted for, like, this is the one that has more legs than anyone else by. far, it continues to come back like a zombie. This is the one, Doug. You thought you were going to get Trump in 16 and 17 and 18 and 19 and 20 and the 21 and the 22.

And there's that one of 23, 24, now it's 25. This is the one. They're finally going to take him down. I think that that smoke fire thing that he said would be a good ISO for the intro to one of your episodes. I don't know. I like it. Producer Chris, you take a note of this?

Yeah. Fuck you, Doug. You're giving Chris more work to do. The other thing that I think is interesting is this is the exact type of show that Stuttering John was striving for. Yes, I was picking up on that, too, except for both guys know what they're talking about to some degree and can trade back and forth about whatever the story is that they're going over, where John just reads a headline and then goes, Army Major. Take it away. Yeah, go ahead. What do you got for us?

But this is the kind of show John thinks that he's doing when he does his political show. Right. Or Tony Michaels. He wants to be the Jake of this podcast. The guy that just sits there and bantors. Gets all pissed off and uses terrible analogies. Yeah. It would be a good move for him.

Do you have any other clips from the show? I do, but I don't... Whatever. Anything like playing, Doug? Maybe you can have your co-host, tune in. Anthony can watch this and learn how to be a better podcast or two, since these guys are obviously better than you guys at this. Anything you want to play that might.

You don't have to be mean about it. There's some educational material or something. I don't know if you guys can study up on. When you, back to the Rob Reiner episode, when you lose somebody that means a lot to you that you've never met, how do you process? You know, I remember being a huge Nirvana fan in 1994, when Kirk Cobain died.

And it didn't affect my life in any way. It's like the music that he wrote, still out there. I can still enjoy it. It's a weird thing when people get so attached to celebrities because of the work, the art that they create. All right. So my next three clips are all in reference to how they process it and then how that processing was interrupted. So number 27. But it also makes it worse, Nick, that something like this happens and it would be hard enough because you would sort of have to sit with it. because if like an artist or a figure or you know somebody that meant something to you passed away

you would want a little bit of time to sort of process that right because that is the thing these people who like affect our lives like this but it's bad enough to have to deal with that it's even worse knowing immediately when a tragedy like this strikes that what does that mean process it what does that even mean I don't know are you are you serious Yeah, I am serious. What are you supposed to do? Let's say moments before we were getting ready to go live, I get a phone call that my dad was killed.

Sure. Right? I wouldn't be in the right headspace to be able to come on here and try to get through this. That makes sense. I would need time to process it. Okay. Rob Ryder's your dad?

Is that true? Oh, I see the similarity. Now I get it. Wait, Nick's your brother? Did you notice that I said, Because that was my attempt at a joke. How do you get past somebody that means so much to you that you've never met? Right.

Oh, right. Okay. Anyway, what do you, what do you think it is that caused him to not be able to process, not be able to have banter and interrupted his grieving period? Do I get the answer in the next clip? Yeah, but you've got to take at least one guess. Well, I mean, this guy was such a champion for the Democratic Party. you, I would imagine that they're set back now because of this.

Yeah, but there's something that interrupted his processing of, like, oh, my God, Rob Reiner was just stabbed to death, and now this is going to happen. This is number 26. That the president of the fucking United States of America is going to obviously do the worst possible thing. Oh, okay, the victory lap. This is the problem that he's having is the Trump. Victory lap that he did after the death.

So the only time in this whole episode that I was even mildly entertained was clip number 25 when they were talking about what it was that Trump did that pissed them off so bad. This was his original reaction. This was on truth, social. This is from Donald Trump, the president of the United States of America. A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling but once very talented, movie director and comedy stars passed away, together with his wife, Michelle, reportedly

due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind-cripling disease known as Trump derangement syndrome. No, we did talk about this on WATS yesterday, and too soon, I believe, was the term that I used for this. Like, I get it. Trump did not like Rob and vice versa, but you don't have to go out immediately and start celebrating the fact that your rival was murdered by his son. But if you're going to get laughs.

Well, that's true. Our first shock president. He wasn't really good on Howard Stern. Actually, I think about it. Maybe he is our first shock president. So this upset these guys a lot, I would imagine. Yeah, I mean, that's what, that was the last clip I had. That's what stopped them from being able to process.

And then they spent the rest of the episode just talking about Trump being, Trump. Oh, well, that worked out well for them then. They should be happy that that happened. That's what they were hoping to talk about anyway. All right. Well, I'm glad that we've learned something both you and I, Doug, about how to be better at podcasting. I think producer Chris, you can learn a lot from Jake.

You should be eating more. You should be giggling more. You should be way higher when you come onto the show. And that's like everything is hilarious. And Doug, you and Anthony talk about how Trump's. the worst person to ever exist and we finally got him and he's going to go away forever can so i know you said you had a couple things that you wanted to get to i do can can i do one more quick segment of course i would love that okay so i think the last two times i haven't given an

update on stephanie from the horror trans podcast oh god this person grosses me out so much it's better okay so um i just checked in real quick on one episode and stephanie was reviewing the halloween timelines from all of the movies okay uh so it's just a quick it's like a 30 second update number 35 uh and a copycat went on to the hospital but the police didn't tell lumus it was a copycat What the God damn it Okay, I apologize for that I couldn't hit the pause button in time

and I don't have any way to edit this So I do apologize Oh Stephanie cover up that cleavage She finally did it in your tits out She has the hairiest chest I've ever seen out a woman this person makes obelick fuckable

oh kidding that's too much go out too far there oh Jesus what a disgusting human being this person is that's all I got that's all you got for us God damn it well thank you for bringing that

Doug I was checking out our buddy Greg Opie Hughes You know, Opie For the bad! For the bad! Bum, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, bah, bah, ba. But, you know, it's funny because Opie took Christmas off, which is, you know, a good thing.

You would think that Opie would have better things to do than to be podcasting on Christmas Day. But a lot of guys would take the Friday off as well, especially when you think about the fact that Opie doesn't make any money, podcasting. He's constantly talking about how his super chats add up to $7 or $12. So it's really no reason he can spend the whole weekend with the family. But Opie actually takes it as a badge of honor that he came back Friday morning to do a show.

This is exactly how the show starts off. Talking about the price of gas. You understand? The price of gas is, I paid $2.85. Oh, good for you. You paid $2.85 for gas. Tony Pay. Yeah, you've got to leave in Manhattan, man.

Good morning, everybody. Welcome to the Opie Radio podcast. Yes, yes, yes. We're live a day after Christmas. Know why? Because you need entertainment. While everyone else takes weeks off from doing this. Oh, because this is hard work, everyone.

I need to take two weeks off. Why would you take two weeks off if this is what you do for a living? Could someone explain this to me? People don't like their friends. This is not a. wheel job, although, you know, there was a time. Maybe I try to take a lot of time. So, I think, I think, you know. So Opie realized how stupid when he's saying sound, especially because Eric Nagel's here in the chat. And I imagine that there were times when Opie

took some time off. Oh, yeah. He took an entire summer off and lost his show. That's correct. Eric Nagel. I was going to bring that up where Opie just like, can you believe people are taking two weeks off over the Christmas break? Why would you do that? Well, Opie, I'll explain this. A lot. lot of people who do successful shows don't just show up and turn the camera on and think that they're doing a show. A lot of people would work into their show. There's a lot of prep involved and a lot of time that it takes both in pre and post production. But Opie explains that, nope, everyone who does this, the streaming or podcasting, everyone is just doing nothing. I think the big podcasters, they're all off to like January 6th, right? They're all off for like

three weeks. Oh, because this is so tough. Ron. This is tough. You know, it's really, it's really tough to turn on a camera or turn on a microphone and just babble for an hour for your fan base. Oh, my God, it takes so. What work does it take? Is he purposely missing the point here? Yeah, as long as Ron keeps doing the work. Right. And Obie just says the Babble, babble, babble, babble. I can't imagine he doesn't realize at one point as he's saying all this, how stupid he sounds for being like, oh my gosh. This is so easy to do. And they talk about Joe Rogan specifically. Of course. Who plans a three-hour interview with his guests a few times a week. So I would imagine that takes a lot of preparation and knowing what to talk to the person about

and having questions prepared. Yeah, just because you make it look easy. Right. But Opie thinks that everyone's doing the same thing that he does, which is not combing your hair, not shampooing your hair, not being presentable at any way, and just turning out a camera and talking to loser open-mikers in their 50s and 60s. And I want to point out the way that started, just started cold with them talking about gas prices. They were talking about gas prices with Tony P.

last time. And I think Opie said, okay, we're going to pick up where we left off, start talking about gas prices, and then I'm going to start the show. Yeah. Because they were arguing about it. Because Opie was saying that Trump's the reason why gas is out of control with the cost of it.

And Tony's like, gas is out of control. actually not that expensive right now and so opi had to be right yes you know so this this argument continued uh to boxing day and one thing that we know about opi is that he loves censoring his co-hosts he thinks that there's lots of rules on the internet what you can and cannot say don't you look like that guy that planted those bombs on jr right right right right don't say that don't say that work are you on a fucking airplane right right right you're On TSA, you can say bombs. We could say like these two guys bomb when they perform stand-up comedy.

That's okay to say. There's nothing against the terms of service. All right, so they get into the spicy Christmas versus Hanukkah talk because, of course, Ron the Wada is Jewish and doesn't celebrate Christmas. And Opie's got a pretty hot take here. I've made fun of Opie recently for saying some things like microwaving fish at work is not good. you know, I'm like, I have people been over this before, but this is a hot take. But for real, what do you do? You can't turn on the TV because there's Christmas all over the TV.

You can't go outside because there's Christmas lights all over the place. Oh, my God. How many fucking shit. You're reminded. I don't know. You're reminded how great Christmas is. Christmas is greater than Hanukkah. No offense to your religion.

But when it comes to the actual holidays, Hanukkah falls way short, brother. No one's ever said that before. I couldn't believe my ears Imagine comparing those two holidays to each other And deciding that Christmas is superior Amazing stuff, Opie He must have stayed up all night Preparing for the show

Also, is that how TV works in 2025 You can't even turn out TV without Christmas being on there I mean most people choose what they want to watch They go to a specific service Well, maybe not Ron Yeah, maybe Ron's just got the over the air television i don't know so there's this thing called

a hana bush and ron showed us in his apartment his hosnaica bush a couple weeks ago and so uh opie has figured out why there's a hanaca bush and you know we have the christmas tree we the royal we

us people who celebrate Christmas and the jews have the hana bush and what i want to point out in this clip is tony p he's a newer guy on this show i think ron brought him on and he's trying to earn his spot as a regular co-host on an Opie show. And so as Opie's breaking this down,

Tony P is losing his mind over it. Let me explain where the bush came from because I finally figured it out. When they're selling Christmas trees on every street quarter in New York City, they're trimming the trees so us Christians can have a nice tree in our house and all those scraps just laying in the gutter.

You guys came along and made something out of it. It's not even a good. You just sweep that crap up and try to put it together. That's your Hanukin bush Tony knows him right Look at him left And very Christmas there, Opie, very Christmas

Jesus Christ I think this is what I'm going to predict I think we're to see more Tony and less Ron Because Ron's starting to get Uppini a little bit He's starting to demand things He thinks that Opie should be matching

Super Chats for him He thinks he's the one who's bringing all the subscribers and the viewers And Opie doesn't like that So I think Opie's seeing this Tony P. guy who's cracking up laughing over his trimmed Christmas trees turned into bushes at Manhattan commentary. Yeah, I know. The only thing missing is Opie's saying, Ron, you see how Tony gets it? Yeah.

Gets things. They'll probably have a post-production meeting, I would think, I would be pointing to this. Remember in the 4-minute and 30-second mark, I have it written down here in my notes. This is how you respond to me, Ron. This is how you do it. all right so tony explains that his wife was mad to him on christmas and ron wants to know is this something that you experienced too opi because there's a lot of questions about opi's home life i think we all have questions about it and look it's none of my business open can talk about whatever he wants to talk about and if he wants to keep things private in his

private life good on him i totally get that but where i get confused is when opi can't even answer a simple question that doesn't sound like it's rehearsed and completely fake well hold on opi does your wife do that too does all women do that does that what my wife no we're cops and puffs it says no that's nothing wrong but they're in yes kids it's no we're uh sadly we have a pretty healthy relationship ron But, wait, but Tony, what was the one thing you wanted?

Okay. Opie always deflex. And I liked that Ron asked these questions. Oh, you ever get into a little scuffle with your wife? Ever been any problems, especially around the holiday season? And Opie being as boring as you can possibly be, just goes, no, we're actually a healthy relationship. There's no way that's true.

There's no money coming in. The thing that couples fight over the most, the thing that causes and stress the relationship, is no money coming in. These guys have so much property to maintain, so many tax. taxes to pay. Just getting around New York City is insurmountable for this guy. He talks about it all the time. You're telling me that him and his wife are not having discussions.

She's not upset about the fact that Opie's been freeloading for all this time and can't find a job. The whole thing of, you're not the guy that I married. Yeah. She married this guy who was on the radio making millions of dollars. And now he's being made fun of in basements across to upstate New York. I've noticed in the short time that Ron has been. featured on this show that he brings up

the wife a lot. He does. I think he knows something we don't know. Or he's trying to feed us. Okay. Something because Either way I'm happy. Doesn't it sound like a guy who doesn't live with his wife anymore? It totally does. You don't have a single thing you can say about like how did you and your wife

get along on Christmas? You can't just be like oh well, you know, the kids had such a great day that we are just so excited for them. Anything. Opie comes on this show without a single anecdote. about his Christmas. And it's like, why did you have to come on the air so quickly?

And you're going to hear him complain about what these guys have to say about their Christmases coming up in just a minute. But first, Opie asked the question to Tony. You know, why were him and his wife not getting along? There was something that Tony wanted that the wife was not having. I wanted to fucking get laid, man. That's all I wanted. All I wanted for Christmas was to get late.

And I got turned down. Wow. Things just got real. I know. Things just got real, real. This loser got rejected by his own wife. Yikes. That's not great.

Please tell me. Tell me, he brings up him not being able to have kids again. Why even get late? The whole point is to procreate. You can't do that. Sorry, Doug. No, I was just going to say, but at least O'Ne is being honest. Yeah.

Instead of just saying, well, no, me and my wife have a healthy relationship. Right. This is the realness that you want out of the streamers. If you're going to be invested in these personalities, you want to hear something other than just like, no, we actually get along pretty well. Neat.

Cool. You want to elaborate on that? All right, that's good enough. I actually prefer the green felt on my tool, my pool table. Right. Tube sock,

remember for night month says, Opie's mouth purple again. What a lush. Going to miss stut, Joe, and he leaves again, dabover's quality drops without John. Love WTP. Hey, Ava.

Yeah, John is, John is threatening to go away on the 31st. We'll talk more about that in just a moment. But first, we've got to find out why Tony wasn't able to get laid on Christmas Day. He explains what happened. Do you want to know what happened? Yes. Yes. Tolly.

I got home. I went and took a shit. And then you know, she had to use the bathroom. So when she got out of the bathroom, you know, I started playing Casanova. And she turns to me, she's like, you know, you just took a shit.

Yeah. And killed the moon. Yeah. I mean, I didn't mean to kill the moon by taking a dump, but I had to take a dump. All right. And then you went in after you? Yes, Ron. Follow along.

That was the story. He took it. He shit up the toilet. And then his wife had to go in there. And that one's on Tony. Yeah. I got to say, because I'd be the same way. I don't want to have sex with a woman I just smelled the shit of.

You know, that doesn't really turn me. I think I'd be weird if it did. Right? And I was like, whoa, someone dropped a deuce in here. Boing. Yeah. Let's go. But wouldn't, wouldn't you just normally, like immediately, you would take a shower.

Sure. If you're wanting to fuck and you have to shit, you don't want to hold the shit until after the fuck. Right. So you've got to do the shit. Then you do a shower. Then you do the fuck. Right. Give the room some time to breathe, open a window.

Yeah. Take a shower. Yeah. There's a lot of things that could have happened here because these guys don't have kids. It's got all day to fuck his wife. Yeah. He dropped the ball big time. You can also get a two-bathroom place to live.

Oh, Opie's going to call him out for that. Of course he is. Which is very funny. Elitist Opie. He's just like, what do you guys have? Just one toilet over there? Which is very funny. But Opie explains, he's got a whole theory on why the divorce rate is so high.

And he's got it all figured out. love has nothing to do with smell well no it has everything to do with smell okay remember this Ron says love has nothing to do with smell so in Ron's mind he's just like that but if she loves you she'll still fuck you after smelling your shit Opie thinks differently

I got love has nothing to do with smell well no it has everything to do with smell I have a whole thing about smells I think one of the reasons why the divorce rate is so high is because everyone is hiding their natural scents with colognes and perfumes, bitches. The natural way is you smell

that smell, and that's when you fall in love with somebody. But we're falling in love because someone has a victorious secret fucking perfume that you like. Opie's literal take on the reason why divorce rate is high is that women stink. That's all there is to it.

These fucking women are gross. It's smell bad. That was not. the takeaway I got from it. What I got from it is he is trying to reconcile the fact that he no longer showers. So this is how I smile now and this is what

you get. That's a great point because Opie was proud of himself beginning of the summer where he's like, I am beach bum Opie starting today. That's right. There's no more showering. I don't clip my toenails. I don't put shampoo in my hair. It's just ocean water and growing everything out.

I can only imagine that if the wife were still around, which just right there, that seems unbelievable that she would be. But if she was, I could see her there would be a bone of contention. There'd be some issues there. Oh, really? We stopped grooming in the summertime, do we? Oh, the time when you sweat the most and have filthy salt water all over even in your air. And won't fix the air conditioning. Yeah, right.

That's what we stopped doing that. Yeah, E. Rock even says he never showered, especially during the summer. So, yeah, he probably gets a lot of complaints from that. Well, so you heard Ron say, love has nothing to do with smell, Tony. What are you talking about? And then Opie says, no, no, actually, it has everything to do a smell. And so Ron knows where his bread is buttered. Tony, you don't understand.

The perfume business is a multi, probably trillion dollar business. Yeah, I get it. Right? Because smell, smell is everything. Wow, he just did a 180 on that. Smells everything. Tony, you don't even understand. Tony, it's just like, I'm going to tell the story over here.

I just don't stop my web with my shit. I totally understand what's going on. So this is where Opie calls about for having a shitty small apartment. You got to be, you got to, like, you got to do everything on your end just in case. But all of a sudden, if you're, if you're dumping a hairy one and you walk out of the fucking room and you're probably in a little two bedroom apartment. But of course he doesn't want to have any sex for you. Excuse me. He owns a house.

Oh, excuse me. Same difference. At the two bedroom house. Obie's like, why don't just drive to your house in the Hamptons and shit there? That's what I tell. Then drive home. You're so weird that you'd shit the toilet. Your wife shit's into?

That's funny. I like what he calls them out for having terrible lives and small apartments. He does that a lot with Ron in this episode because Ron tells a story about how he vomited on Christmas morning. Him and his roommate went out. Well, he drank a bunch of beers. Then him and his roommate went out to this Italian restaurant, and he ate way too much food, and he stopped.

He got ice cream on the way home. And then he's shoving, like, all of these, like, Christmas cookies and shit on the ice cream. Jesus. And eating all of that up. So he tells us this long story about puking. Listen to me. Oh, also, he walks around his apartment and shows off all of the candy and stuff that's still out from where he was eating all the snacks.

And it gives a Jake Hudson vibe as he's walking around his apartment with the camera facing up towards him and just see the drop ceiling. Listen to me. I woke up around 3.30 in the morning. And you shit your brains out. I had it come out both of them. In pure agony. In pure agony.

The worst hot burn I ever had in my life. so it didn't work out well for our buddy ron this story goes on and on and on let's get to the exciting conclusion of ron vomiting on christmas morning my hammy keeps fucking jamming up so i'm like oh fuck so i'm like i'm gonna puke in the sink so i stand up my god and i i'm gonna puke in the bathroom sink and i and i fucking put my finger down my throat and the first couple times. Yeah. It's pure liquid vanilla ice cream.

It's just like, it looks like sauce. Nobody wants to hear this in the morning. Thank you, Tony. I don't want to hit this, bro. I thought we'd have a nice little opi radio podcast the day after Christmas. No one else is terrible. I'm like, let's turn this on. Maybe talk about Christmas

miracles and your best Christmas ever. Yeah, that wasn't Christmas. We're looking forward doing 2026. I have a right to talk about my Christmas experience. We've got two stories. Tony can't clean his ass and then wonders why his wife ain't him. Yeah, you can't even, but don't even talk, Tony. And Rod is just shoving, just shoving.

You have no right to talk. And then Rod and just is looking for as much goodness as humanly possible to push down, push down his horrible childhood. Opie's complaint was, I thought we were just to do a nice little fun, talk about how nice our Christmases were show. And Opie brought nothing. he literally how were things with your wife they're fine okay yeah anything else happened anything you want to talk about the kids no i don't talk about the kids okay cool so these guys are

trying to make it interesting like yeah my wife won't fuck me because i shit this guy's like i ate too much food then i puked and then opi's screaming at them i know i know he's performing of opi here i'm not stupid but you know he's just like i thought we were gonna have a fun little show about christmas yeah opie that's why all those podcasts took a couple weeks off Like they actually would prepare a show they want to put on and not let their guests just take over and make the show whatever it's going to be. I actually side with Opie here, I think.

Please, please. So he had anticipated coming on, and he anticipated the show going one direction and it went another. Yeah. So with that being said, and I know that this is tiptoeing on the line of possibly losing you as a friend,

I'm going to share a text message exchange that you and I had privately. Oh, God damn. And I know how you feel about that. It's just what I wrote to you and then what you wrote to me. Okay. Do you have any interest in doing an old school

WATP episode? We come up with two or three podcasts that you haven't done yet and do no updates on your law cow farm. It was just a thought I had. Your response? Yeah, that would be great. Here we are.

I got, I know how he feels. I have to talk about John Melendez, because big news is broken, and I'll be honest, I was not going to touch this. I didn't think this was something that was worth talking about and putting it out there, but the way John is reacted to it is forcing my hand here, I have to bring this up. So big news dropped on Tuki Soup and let's start there and then we'll get to John's reaction to this. He says he got a text from a very reliable source. I do not know if John has been approached with this. If he confirms or denies it, I don't know if he even knows. But yes, apparently one of John's children is using Aaron's last name, Imholt.

Wait, no, what is Aaron's last name? I don't even know. I don't want to dox him. It's their stepdad, whatever his last name is. So Tuckie reveals that one of John's children has changed their last name to the stepfather's last name. And more details are put out there. Yeah, I'd like to know perhaps which child it could have been. Take a guess.

Oscar? Yay! Maybe. I don't know. Oscar's been around Aaron the longest, so I think it would make sense, but that's just my opinion. Wouldn't that be horrible?

John's first son born with a penis doesn't want to carry on the Melendez name. That's a good thing. So Tuckie just threw this out there. He's like, the Z-man said this on MLC, and he tried to get Chad to call in and talk about it. And so he throws it out there on Tuki Soup. And later on in that show, I guess John and Ava had a private conversation, it seems like,

because Ava came on and was all pissed at Tuki for saying this and was like, not saying it, but going, I can't believe he would do that to you, John. And John's going, yeah, well, you know, I don't know. So it seemed like Ava was confirming this. Because, again, this is just a silly rumor thing that was thrown out there. I saw it on Reddit and stuff. But I'm not going to report on it like it's fact until John pretty much confirms that it's definitely a fact when he goes on his show last night. I happen to run into, let's see, a family member who was allegedly changing their name, which is while I was, while I was, let's see.

let's see what other rumors we could come up with that have been said about me oh while i was while i was allegedly on the fake cbs football arm wrestling championship and the fake kareem abdul jabar roast all of those things which at the end of the day are just that fake I don't get it yeah I don't think he made a point no this was a longer clip where he goes on about his Mercedes and his Harley and it's like

what he's trying to say I'll explain it for him because he couldn't figure this out what he's trying to say is that this is just another rumor like all the other rumors that are out there that aren't true problem is no one thought John wasn't on CBS hosting a pro football arm wrestling contest we all saw

the trailer for it. It's been on YouTube. There was never a rumor like, John's lying about that. No one thought he didn't write for the Cream of Dual Jabar roast. That's up on there, too, where he's wandering around with two beers in his hand by himself in the lobby. No one was debating any of these things. And then he equates that with

a family member who had their name change. I'm like, oh, okay. We're just saying it now. Well, then if that's John's show, then I'm going to report on this. Because, holy shit, is he pissed? He's very upset at a that this happened i would imagine yes i would see that being a problem and then b that

everyone finding out about it yeah and knowing about it and there's something else at play so john did a show that was almost five and a half hours long last night i caught it near the end i get myself involved a little bit i did a little super chatting but it was almost five and a half hours long and there's uh there's multiple guests and the guest that's supposed to be out on fridays is clay dabbler It's Clay Day on Friday. Poor Clay. This guy just, all he does is try to help his buddy John out. He's always rooting for him.

He's always cheerleading for him. He's sticking up for him all the time. We've asked him to come on point-dabblepoint numerous times. He won't come on. Abla's been on point-dabble-point. Vince the lawyer's been on. Miss Judy's been on. All these people come on the show, not Clay Dabbler, loyal to a fault.

And Clay says, Hey, John, am I on the show today? I assume it's Clay Day. You're going to have me on? And John goes, oh, is it Friday? Ah, I didn't know. So I actually asked Avona to come on. So, no, you're not on today.

Those are the rules. And Clay gets very upset about this. And so John reacts. You know, oh, and then, of course, I get the drama of Clay Dabler, which is just like, you know, first of all, as you know, on the 23rd I came and I did a second show. And again, it's the Christmas holidays. I don't know what day it is today.

I guess it's Friday, which is normally Clay Day. And I don't, you know, I don't care. I forgot. But I'm not allowed to get because Clay, that was, you know, very, very sensy. Yeah. So I was like, ah, fuck, I double book. Because then I was calling. There's a lot going on.

I think anybody knows all the rumors that I go around, which, you know, I wanted to address. And, you know, because unlike Clay Dabbler, I do have conversations with people that actually give me their phone number. Jesus Christ, so much on back there. What an apology, huh? Yeah. This guy's a beat a sensitive little bitch. Fuck him. How am I supposed to know it's Friday?

Christmas lands on a Thursday? Who knows what the next day is going to be? Carl, how many times have you came across a rumor about you that you know is just wildly untrue? Many, many times. I read about them on a Reddit on a daily basis. Okay. Have any of them called? caused you to double book an episode.

I've never had a rumor come out that wasn't true about me, where all of a sudden, it's the only thing I could focus on. And it's screwed up my entire life. Like, oh, you expect me to take the garbage out? There's a rumor about me on the Internet. I can't possibly do any of these things. Have a heart, John. No, I didn't pay utilities this month.

There's a rumor about me on the Internet. So that it's very, it's very. funny word. Then he's also mad at Clay because Clay doesn't talk to him on the phone. Yeah. Clay is very smart to do this. Yep. Because John just dumps all of his problems on anyone who will take his phone call. I've experienced it. I know Cardiff has experienced it. I know Vinnie Paulino's experienced it. Rocko. Let alone the doxing. Of course, the doxing is also a part of it. So John goes on to explain that Vegas beer sales Jerry and Ditka and Ava. Those are the people that allow him to bother them with his problems.

And that's all John wants to do is bother people with his problems. So he's pissed at Clay. Now, see, Clay Dabbler, it's all about Clay Dabbler. My family means fucking nothing when it comes to Clay Dabler. There's an ISO. That don't mean shit, because it's all about Clay Dabbler.

I feel like maybe, mad about something other than clay dabbler taking something out on clay and clay doesn't deserve he's being a little sensie well the other thing is that um he thought the clay dabbler gave out a link to one of his shows recently

and then later on in this episode again it's hours and hours so he can't get it in all of it miss judy comes on and john goes did you go up the link to my show she goes yeah i gave it to mammy and he goes what the fuck he's all pissed to clay and it turns out

I thought you guys were friends She asked me for it So I said it to her So that's when he gives a heartfelt apology Clay I was wrong No I didn't hear I didn't hear that at all Do you know where is he

Recording from right now? Is mom's house One of the rooms upstairs Oh So there's people enjoying Christmas Downstairs Yeah This guy is with

Loved ones supposedly With this family That he's so concerned about and for six hours he fucks off in a room all they can hear through the doors my family means nothing we know john you show us with your actions you don't have to tell us with your words uh all right so john starts bringing up that other people have children this is an odd thing that john's doing with this specific rumor he's trying to pretend that this is a bad thing for his son Oscar as if these are people taunting Oscar now

who decided to change his name and not be a Melendez anymore just the opposite everyone is praising Oscar for doing the right thing for recognizing that his father is a problem Oscar is at Harvard right now he's a genius he's literally a genius and he's doing very well for himself

and the whole devil verse is rooting for him. But John wants to think that everyone's teasing his son and what comes around goes around. There are other people with children. And I hope to God, I hope to God that when they come of age, and they turn 18, you motherfuckers,

who like to fuck with family members don't do it to their kids because i will never there is one thing that is certain and i guarantee this toki when your kids come of age when your kids turn 18 there is one thing that is certain there is one thing that is certain I will never, ever talk about your children, ever. But until then. The way that's worded is so weird. John won't be alive when Rocco's daughter turns 18. Not the point.

So this guy... I think this should be your screenshot or your thumbnail. Oh, that one's not bad. So this guy's decided he's changing the rules right now because now something embarrassing has come out. looks poorly on him as a father. Absolutely. So now he's just like, I don't think we should be talking about anyone's family.

God, I could have sworn there was like a tweet with my picture of my dad joking about his cancer that one time or my sister who has nothing to do with anything was tweeted about by John. It's wild. All of a sudden now family members are off limits and no one could ever do that. John would certainly never do that. He's above all of us. Amazing how that works out because John has ethics.

that's just not me it's not right it's not ethical so all John is doing is proving that the information is true I saw someone posting I don't know if it was Cardiff's chat

or something I think it was Cardiff's chat someone wrote Oscar Turner Overdrive That's pretty good It's pretty funny I think that that might have likes The fucking thing is And I know you've said this

Or a variant of this Hundreds of times by now If John would just come on and say Look I made some bad choices I fucked up my life I had some great opportunities And I fucking tanked it man I've been such a bad parent

That my kid If you can believe it is taking his stepdad's name like i have got to fix this there's nothing you could do with that right he would get so much sympathy and people would be like well i don't want to kick this guy while he's down right that's not fun no but instead he does possibly the worst thing he could do he confirms that the rumor is true by freaking out about it for hours and again i wasn't going to cover this until aba came on the show and was like throwing this bitch fit about it i'm like oh, this sounds like there's something to this.

And so John's trying to play this both ways where he's like, don't pay this to my kids and what they're doing. That's not cool. But also, this isn't even true. I mean, where'd you see this on Reddit? And yeah, it's on fucking Reddit. So it must be true.

But it doesn't end with this. It just doesn't. end. Just can, you guys can't help yourselves. Another thing is certain, yes, I love my family. Where are they? They meet everything to me, and that is why you choose to go after them instead of me.

Hmm? What? No, we're making fun of you, John. We're making about the fact that your son changed his name, man. that's making fun of you idiot it's never been any other way no it's never been any other way this is funny john didn't see his kids for thanksgiving didn't see him for christmas these kids mean everything to me i wish they didn't like turkey or they did like turkey we could have gotten together for thanksgiving but i love that he goes oh it's out of red it so it must

be true no no you're reacting like this so it must be true that that's not the confirmation that i needed You're outing yourself. Yes. And then he says this sentence, which you never want to say if you're denying something. If you're denying something that people are saying is a, you know, a rumor about you that is not true. It's amazing how many lies that you guys can fucking roll with. And even. let's say it wasn't a lie

who the fuck of you to fucking talk about that since you have me right here every day you have me to trash and goof form

that's a good idea what I think of that even if it wasn't a lie as soon as I heard that boy child what are you doing it's obviously true you know i'm friends with kaya i do know that uh so on his show he thought it would be funny to spread a rumor that i lost both of my legs to diabetes is a funny rumor okay so i i started getting out of the blue i started getting inundated with messages saying sorry uh i hope you're okay i i don't listen to a show so i was i don't

know what you're talking about uh and then it came to me uh uh somebody somebody said me message and it was a clip of kaya dropping the news that he was upset because his dear friend Doug has lost both of his legs due to diabetes yeah um i can't i can't i can't imagine doing a five-hour live stream of like my feet mean everything to me I use my legs for walking, for jump roping, occasionally jogging. And they're gone. They're gone. How dare you say this about them?

Yeah, John has all the wrong instincts. And let's not forget, I think the most recent segment we did on John was John saying, guys, why are you bullying me? Like, what did I ever do? Can we all just like change? Change. I think I can change. You can change two.

We can all be buddies again. And I was turning into. Guys, call me out. I'm the asshole. Don't talk about my kid. Which is just another instance of deliberately not getting the point. We are making fun of you with this. This has nothing, well, very little to do with Oscar.

Also, one other thing before I forget is that there was a time when, you know, John's been had many times, he's getting information about people that's not real. There was the time that, I don't know if Rocco came up with this or someone, that Rocko's son was this black kid. Yes. And these photos leaked of Rocco's black son. And John jumped all over that. He posted that shit. Oh, yeah.

He couldn't wait to do that. He couldn't wait to docks Rocko's address and all this stuff. And all of a sudden, he's just like, guys, this is too much. You've gone too far. Let's get back to Clay Dabber and how pissed is. He is at Clay. Clay Dabler, you want to go on point, Dabble, point, or whatever you want to do and trash me.

Go ahead. Join the fucking club. I'm sorry, today wasn't about Clay Dabbler. If it's okay with you, today was about me. Finally. A Cuddering John episode is about Suttering John. What an asshole. So I think there's a fake Clay who's saying he's going on Point Dabble Point.

Because I've been had by fake Clay before too. When I was hosting Point out, I was like, oh shit, you want to come out? I sent him a link right away. I texted Chulid asked him if he'd heard. from him. I don't think Clay's going to point that way. He's welcome to. He's invited to come on on Monday. That'd be great. But I don't think he's coming on. Point, devil point anytime soon.

Clay's pretty loyal to John for whatever reason. But what is John saying there that today was about him? He's so upset about something? Yeah, he's upset about this rumor. This rumor. Yeah, yeah. It's really bothering him. And not only he's bothering him, but his friends

are dealing with it as well. And I said, I have everybody on tonight. I want to have Av on. Ob has been dealing with this. Rumor. Okay. Hold on. Pause.

His use of the quotes there. He's so stupid. This thing that's true, but I'm pretending is fake. An idiot. Vegas Bear sells Jerry has been dealing with this. So forgive me, Claire. He talks about it like it's his public relations team. They're dealing with it.

What is Ava and Vegas beer sales Jerry doing to deal with this rumor that's going around about your son changing his last night? How long does it take? He's such a prick that the fact that he pushes all of this shit on his friends. And he thinks that's normal. He's like, Clay, you don't even talk to me on the phone. Meanwhile, I'm complaining to Ava and Ditka and Vegas beer sales Jerry nonstop about this thing. That's obviously true that I'm obviously very upset about. So Vince the lawyer comes on.

And I appreciated some of the things that Vince said about this. Think about this. Is there any one person in the Dabbleverse that could compare to Oscar in terms of him going to Harvard? I don't want to talk about him. Please, Vince, you know, but I'm just saying... Well, you're talking about him. What do you want me to do? No, no, no.

I'm talking about the rumor. but we heard it John I'm not mentioned names I'm just saying just either way if he's able to do that there's no name you're going to call him that will ever affect him so you have nothing to worry about so Vince comes out

as the voice of reason it's like your son's killing it I don't think you have to worry about Oscar he's obviously doing very well for himself you know the smartest guy in the devil words in the devil verse he's not obviously and John's to be thought was I don't want to talk about my kids he spent the last hour and a half talking about

your kids. That's the whole point of the show today. So this is hilarious. As Vince tries to get this hypothetical question out to figure out if John maybe is more upset about the fact that Oscar changed his name than he is about the fact that everybody knows that's what happened.

The issue is putting every specifics aside, if one of your kids did change their last name, would it bother you? Not specific. Just hypothetical. It doesn't have to be you. Hit Man Dan. Would he be mad?

Don't bring up him either, please. Just make up a fake person. Would it bother you if it was true? I don't even, I haven't even I'm trying to think, because Lori's bound to dump me, right? So she's bound to find somebody else, and let's say they don't want to be associated with my

last name. I wouldn't blame them. I don't know if I would be upset if they changed their last name. It doesn't matter. The point is leave family. It does matter, John. Because if it's true... I'm not having this. I'm going to kick you off. Is that the right answer? It's just yes.

The answer is yes. I think that's John's only actual son. And so if there was ever a chance of like a legacy from John Melendez, that would have been the one. It would have been the one. And so I think John's pissed about that. And good questions from Vince. Yeah. And the fact that John just can't answer that question.

He had a good run before he got kicked up. We do. We know why you're upset, Chad. But Vince is just trying to get to the bottom of it. This is funny because... So, John's like, I don't want to talk about my kids. I don't talk about my family. Let's not bring it up.

So Vince is trying to move the show along. All right. So what else is going on? Oh, that's the funniest thing is you think you're going to produce my show. I mean, like, you really think that you are controlling my show. What an ass! He's in such a shit mood. He had a bad.

Christmas, this one. Someone else is going on. Fuck you. That's what's going on. Stay out of my head. Do you think you're producing my show? I think someone's very sensy in the words that John would use. He's very sensy about what's going on with Vince.

So John's just like bringing up the super chats that are talking about this. It's just nonstop. See, I'm just going to, see, this is again, this is again, this. is what the rumor mill does so this guy says congrats to your lad for fully removing himself from you and your baggage your empty threats can't cover up the shame you

should be feeling and shot just puts it up because it's five bucks yeah this is what he gets he deserves all of this and again I wasn't going to talk about this I know it's been the subject of his show non-stop so it's like all right well I guess that's what we're talking about now I love that Vince is pissing him off

he's like well let's go read some super chance This will comfort me These people have my back So I wish that super chat Ended with Merry Christmas I think that probably would be better So that Miss Judy joins the show

And John is very paranoid About what might happen with Miss Judy Miss Judy Miss Judy's walking around I don't know if it's really her It's her Because she said I can join All right so if I get fucking

mom are you going to pay me from fucking the two weeks of revenue yeah i trust that is everybody have your hand i'm if you put it on i can tell you if it's her or not no now she's walking away from the camera oh no she doesn't know that he'll put it on let's see if we all right all right i'm going to be close to the fucking uh is that you yeah yeah good hey miss judy i'm out of hotel gym I'm on traveled. I told you she's upset. Look, I'm lifting weights, man.

Where are you? What the hell's that? I prefer not say because there are some creepy people out there, but I'm traveling. You're looking at him. Chad's such an idiot. As he's complaining about personal information getting out there, his first question of Judy, which I'll tell you, stay dad. And Judy's so likable and fun-loving.

She's like, hey, what's going? Meanwhile, John spent the whole time going, is this really Judy? Is this person going to pour and bond me? He's so paranoid. His life is miserable. Yeah, I think he saw Clay in the backstage later on. Yeah. And wouldn't bring him on.

He's like, oh, that's a fake clay. Yeah, he's so paranoid about everything that might happen to him at his channel. Now, Judy sent John $100. Yeah. Like a PayPal. 100 bucks. And I think that was to get back in his good graces after she came on. point dabble point

and so what happens when you give a homeless person money they want more they need more this is you see this with the whack pack on the Howard Stern show it's like if

high pitch Eric gets money for coming on the show he's going to demand money every time he comes on the show listen to what John says to Judy I didn't think how it's doing anything bad sorry oh this is when talking about how she sent the link out to F mommy or mammy um and john was scolding her for it i didn't think i was doing anything

bad sorry well if you want to do me a favor to make up for it you know vamo me no no no more i think i need to save for retirement i have different financial priorities so yeah so john's trying to laugh it off the same way when he hits on girls sure he's like i'm kidding unless i'm not send me a hundred bucks but seriously hundred bucks so he thinks he can just like get money off of judy now whenever he wants to and vinsist in there going no no no no we don't treat judy like this that's not what this is asshole he's a scumbagumback john molyne does these people who are his buddies who allow him to walk all over them i do not understand one of the one of the of course is Ava and everyone hates Ava.

No one wants Ava on this show. I don't want to play a lot of clips a bit by I did get myself involved in the show last night. I did super chat because as I mentioned on oh gosh, what show was I on? Probably this show. Probably who are these podcasts. I mentioned that Ava challenged me.

She said she would give me $50 to debate me about my analogies I use on Husey show. I know I keep saying this. I've been going on for weeks now. So I messaged her and I said, yep, let's do this. I'll take your 50 bucks. I'd be loved to have you on a show to do this. so you want me back when so I gave her some

days and times and I didn't hear back and then I followed up and then I didn't hear back so I saw Ava on the show last night so I decided to see the super chat and ask Ava hey what's up why are we doing this I was naggle to say why won't Ava debate me she chalms me then back down

when I called the blah is she a Barry what's uh it says pussy boy she a pussy boy or Anna Barra Wissa say you have a wait is that really Carl I don't know. Who gives a fuck?

I've responded to your email and you never followed up. All right. Well, he's accusing you of backing down. What? Come on the... Can he come on now? I'll debate him right now. No, I don't want to fucking talk to him.

I'm in a fucking lawsuit with this fucking asshole. Well, I'll deal with it. So I did get the link last night. I did not go, I mean, he wouldn't have had me out anyway. You know, he would have gotten scared. But someone did send me the link. But that was... Good thought on Ava.

It's like, wow, John, you've been drinking for six hours straight? You want to talk to Carl right now? That would have some pretty good, uh, YouTubeing, I think. Um, I have to own this one. I've dropped a ball in this. Carl responded to me and I didn't, um, see that email or respond to it. Oh, okay. So then, I'm obviously down to debate Carl about fucking anything,

especially the analogies. Uh, tell me when you want to do it. Just ask him. I was going to write him, but you were getting all antsy. No, no, no, you can write them, just say, hey, call the thing. Just do it. No, I didn't want to send him a link. I don't want him on the show.

So Ava said, I'll email him after this. I still have not received an email from Ava. I think I was in the chat. I saw Ava a little while ago in the chat. But anyway, that's the latest with that. Don't worry. It won't be part of WTP if and when this happens. I have one more clip on here because John goes over to his brother's house for Christmas Day

and his brother makes dinner. Sounds like a nice thing to do for the family, right? Host and prepare a meal for everyone. What do you think John does on his show the very next day up on YouTube from his mom's house? What do you think he does? I think he shit talks. And then we have the roast pork, which my brother used the wrong. the wrong recipe for and he um i don't know he didn't use the danish way to do it he used some

other way and there was sage in it and didn't didn't have the pork rinds the way i wanted and then he burnt the rinds on top it wasn't the best roast pork and still suffice but what an asshole mr hungry man himself. Yeah, this guy's microwave salisbury steak and saying that the rose pork sufficed.

I'll give him a C-minus on this one. It's passing, but... Yeah, this reminds me of his friends taking him to that nice steakhouse in Cape Corp. Yeah, he's shit all over that place, too. Yeah. He's drinking bushlights

on the way and the shit on the steakhouse they went to. He knows he's a piece of shit when he wakes up. He's like, wow, someone did something really nice for me. I don't want to acknowledge it.

Do you think he knows he's a piece of shit when he wakes up? Well, isn't that what you told me a narcissists do? I think it's deep down they know that they're not worthy, but I think that they suppress it so hard to convince themselves. I think you're right. I think they suppress it so hard that it is actually everybody else that's wrong. And it's the asshole. I think they really believe that.

It's crazy because when John tells these lies, I think he starts to believe them after a while. Well, that part, I do believe. And that might have to do with drinking. Yeah, I might. All right, are you guys ready to play a game? Yeah. Let's poke a dabbler. well we were but

it's time for everyone's favorite new game show to poke a dabbler what do you say Carl and gay dog are you ready to poke

a dabbler I'm going to give a quick peek behind the curtains on this one because it is the Christmas season right now and I know Cardiff was hosting over at his house he was talking about that on his show this morning he did give me a heads up that probably won't be a game on Saturday.

And I said, Doug's going to be on from who's right. And Cardiff came through for us. So that was very nice of Cardiff. And we appreciate Doug for being that important of a guest on WTP. Just come on from my last few shows. So, Bob, I'll text you if, you know, if you're watching or whatever. If you want to come on just because it's my last week, just come on and say goodbye.

You're welcome to do that. Leonardo Martinez, thanks for the two bucks. It's a fireplace and you're the big log dummy. Don't matter. On Christmas Day, the birth of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. What did John say next? Here are your choices. Number one, I mean, I don't believe in that nonsense, but my mom does.

B we were both persecuted our entire lives next who was also a stutterer by the way it's blasphemy and lastly

the most famous Jewish person out there and lastly too the shit wear should be careful not to cross the Catholics to poke a dabbler

Wow this is a tough one right here So this is from a year ago Before John left the internet Oh remind me to talk about John leaving the internet Last year for eight months I'm gonna go with one

I don't believe that nonsense My mom does Is my guess Doug what do you think I'm gonna go with four You think it's blasphemy Producer Chris I went one All right

Let's go Thanks for the two bucks. It's a fireplace and you're the big log dummy. Don't matter. On Christmas Day, the birth of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, the most famous Jewish person out there. Come on. Fuck you, Cardiff.

Who could have gotten that? That's impossible. The most famous Jewish person out there. That's what threw me up. There's no way he said that. that. And we had to experience Jews being put into

ovens and they have me burning. What? That's not anti-Semitic. At the very least, it's fucking a great Christmas. It's a very warm one. It's hilarious. I think we can I'll agree on that.

It smells like roast pork. Without the sage. Fucking idiot. Crazy to do, especially when a woman was just burned here in Manhattan. Who the fuck does that? That's crazy. They do. Criminals do.

Jay Warren, he was a Christian, John, and you know that. No. Jesus was born a Jew. Jesus died as a Jew. Jesus never planned on creating Christianity. He was just doing. his own version of Judaism. He had nothing to do with the conversion to Catholicism.

That was way after he died. If you want to just know the facts, ask the Duke. I know. I had to go to Catechism. I was confirmed. I know all about it. That's all for this time.

Come back next time to find it if you are man enough to poke. A dabbler. Brought to you by patreon.com. slash Cardiff Electric and Hackamania. Get your tickets now for Hackamania using promo code JT. Sit, Eugene, sit. Good dog. The great Cardiff Electric, he got us again.

It's fucking potato. He does great work. Check out his podcast. There was no B-Dabbling live this morning. So the Cardiff was on at Cardiff Elect. on YouTube. I was watching that a little bit this morning when I was prepping for the show

and he was going over some of the same stuff we were talking about with Suttering John Melendez. Doug, thank you so much for coming on the show today. Always great to see you, my friend. Thanks for reaching out and saying, Carl, let's do a show without Suthering John and Opie. I said, that's a great idea, buddy. We're not going to do any steel toe?

Actually, now that you mentioned it, do you see what Aaron was doing? No, I don't have any steel toe for us this week. But people should check you out and check out who's right. Who's right podcast.com. That's the place to go. I had to scrub all our social media, took our YouTube down and everything. Just, you know, job and keep getting fired over my stupid show.

Jesus Christ, is that for real? You had to do that? So annoying. So support our buddy, Doug, because he does a great job. I'd like to think that that's why I'm under that political podcast in the rankings now as we've lost our footing. You know, I have to tell you, Doug, you're no different than any of the other podcasting friends that I have. And most of them have real jobs. Are you just pissing people off at work a lot?

Or there's like looking for reasons to fuck with you? What's going on? You think? Should I look into that? I think maybe you should. All right. Let's see what's going on on the internet. Internet news with Jenny Jiggles.

From Facebook, Dan J. Morris posts a pick of Carl playing on his mandolin at the holiday ice stove show. with the caption, Just do it. Scott Stokes is concerned. Please tell me that you did not step on that instrument. Connor Hutchison demands, Did he ever get a deal with Atlantic Records? I'll wait.

From Reddit, Taterpiscuit writes, Miss Judy and Ron the waiter are the MVPs of the Davivers at the moment. Arthur Burns shares, Miss Judy's Eric the Actor-Assad delivery, makes it even funnier. She sounds like a malfunctioning android criticizing John while he's trying to hit on her.

Chip Lamonica opines, If I were 60, estranged from my children, and relying on $1.99 Superchats to have enough to buy frozen pizza, I'd seriously reevaluate my life. Once ate a Lego, some stuttering John up with, always a hero or the victim. Never in between, but sometimes both. And from YouTube, Sarah Hill points out, John doesn't stutter on first blood, but he has trouble with family. Cal Norton Jr. suggests, maybe John and Chad can spend Christmas together. Sput a hungry man.

Kemadu notes, Opie audibly gasped when he saw ads. Donation. Stephen Becker is feeling the spirit. Merry Christmas to the Women's Association of Tennis Pros. DC Jams reports, even on his own show, Opie doesn't deserve having his name in the title. MJW truth reveals the least surprising outcome of the year, Opie outshined by another everyman. Mr. Mustard demands, for Christmas, I want a Ron and Anthony Pod. Happy New Year all. Just Bob Jay makes a strong point. Will someone donate a mic to Ron so he doesn't have to lean his Big nose into the laptop every time he speaks. Dynamic cycle parts agrees.

What's with Ron Schnaz in the camera all the time? Thorson 2.4 confesses, I would get in trouble if I drew Ron. It's a beautiful animalism pleads for sanity. I feel like I'm trying to get my friend out of an abusive relationship when it comes to Ron. Know you're worth, Ron. You deserve more! Opie is a lonely person for a reason.

Please wake up, Ron. Toe Gunner seems reasonable. Ron is great on Opie's podcast, but he's an attention-seeking idiot at Gebb hearts. Antichifista begs us, please, please make a compilation of Opie's singing at the beginning of its shitty show. Confucius say, is this show supposed to be awkward like that? If so, genius, if not genius. The great Jenny Jingles and producer Chris putting together the internet news for us. Once again, thank you for that.

Thank you for everyone who participates on the internet talking about this show and the related goings-ons. You can also call into the show. a chance to be interactive with us by going to Who Are These.com, finding our voicemail number, and talking into the telephone. Hey, I don't know who this message is for, but I saw this video and it's been working wonders for me, so I thought I do a PSA. For all you guys that are vaping marijuana products, make sure that you're hitting them vertically and not horizontally.

If you hit them horizontally, those heating elements are out of the product, and then when they hit it they're porous and they that's why you're getting your clogging so if you're getting clogged vapes hit them vertically and uh you won't have that problem anymore uh it has nothing to do with sitting in your pocket sideways all right merry Christmas motherfuckers happy new year the fuck was that it was very helpful oh good all right i thought that would help somebody out uh cow photographer calls in hey it's the cow photographer and i had a thought about opi Why doesn't he drive Uber, Lyft, whatever, live stream that, or, I mean, that's probably against him, whatever, record that, have its conversations with passengers with their consent, of course, and that'd probably be way more interesting. You know who I am?

I'm the Opster. You remember me from Opie and Anthony? Yeah, this is how I talk. And then, I don't know, I feel like there's something there. I think there could be something there. Let me know what you think in the comments. I do think, oh, we should drive for Uber because he needs to start making some money. Right.

I would imagine it's not great for him if it was zero money coming in. Kyle photographer calls back to clarify. Oh, and to clarify why I think you should do Uber and Lyft isn't necessarily to talk to the passengers, but because he'll make more than what he's doing on the super chats and he'll be able to afford parking in his garage at the very least. He probably has a nice car too, you know. You would think. You can take that duct tape off of it. Yeah.

It's holding up his camera. So, D.K. Metcalf, wide receiver for the Steelers, who punched a fan in the face. Apparently because the fan said his real first name, it's a weird story. But it was caught on camera. He was suspended two games. Anyway, that's the backstory. This is for WATP. I guess old ginger tits of Billy Boy!

Must have a fucking crystal ball with some shit. Because he Yes Predicted DJ Metcalf DK by cap, yeah Touching a fan at the Detroit Lions Christmas Day game

How about that? It must have been some of that voodoo magic from his black voice Here over here Yeah No, no Bill was reporting on

It didn't happen on Christmas Day. What the fuck is wrong? Why am I playing these voicemails? These people are all losing their minds. Hey, this is Franklin Waldlake. I am a fan of Drew Lane and the whole posse. That's why I found you guys. Anyways, please omit my last voicemail.

It was not that good. It was not well thought out. But this one, yes, Carl, I'm going to compliment you. So keep this one. I was a religious Bill Burr listener for all. a long time and I grew weary several years ago and one of the last episodes I listened to was him talking about taking a drum lesson and being taught, instructed, the correct way to hold the drumstick. He talks probably for like 15, 20 fucking minutes about how to hold a drumstick.

So when you called him out for, oh, you can play a drum fill, that's not that impressive. Most musicians started when they were kids. Thank you very much. Fuck that. your dick, bitch. Peace. All right. We're connecting with the audience out there, Doug. You didn't see that?

Yeah. All you got to do is say, fuck this guy, his drums. I feel it. Merry Christmas, Doug. Thanks for coming out of the show with us today. It's great to see you, my friend.

I also feel like you used to have a time limit on your voicemails. Yeah, 45 seconds. 45 seconds or last, please, is what we ask for. The whole, like, hey, Carl, I'm a fan of Drew. It's how I found your show. I left you another voicemail.

Like, none of that stuff needs to be in that. Just get right to whatever you want to talk about with the drums. I got to go. Bye. I got to go. I got to go. I got to go. I got to go.

Okay. Bye. Go fuck yourselves. Have a good week. Bye. Boom. I'm playing his hit volley. Vinny Paulino, because he's so fat, boom, I got to go.
