Starting point is 00:01:07 Hey! Welcome to WATP! I'm Carl. I'm here with my friends Lucy, Chris, Andy, Tab, and Jen, who were all hanging out together in Boston this past weekend. I thought we'd come on and chat about it. Welcome everybody. Why, thanks.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Thanks for being here. I Appreciate you guys showing up for a little recap So we can discuss what we witnessed what the people witnessed what we learned what we learned from it One of the first things that I learned is they should never take a red eye anywhere. Yeah, poor dick learned is that you should never take a red eye anywhere. Yeah. Poor Dick. He slept most of the weekend. Well, he also has a serious issue with this tinnitus.
Starting point is 00:01:52 He has just nonstop crushing pain. And I didn't realize it was as bad as it is. I know it was really, really terrible and crippling, and he's kind of getting through it a little bit. But even when we were setting up on stage, and he wasn't there for the sound check, but then when he came up, he's like, wanted to sit as far away from the monitor speaker
Starting point is 00:02:12 as possible. Which makes sense, it was shrill at first, but then he turned that down. Just any sound, though. Just crushes his brain. Carl, I know you tried to kill me at Cisco, but. Well, yeah, any sound crushes his brain. He's like, Carl, I know you tried to kill me at Cisco, but. Well, yeah, any sound crushes his brain, and it's a whole weekend of people screaming in your face.
Starting point is 00:02:30 Yes. Yeah, it's the perfect thing. So it's kind of rough. Anyway, I have taken a red eye once from Vegas, and I'll never do it again. It'll ruin your week. I took a red eye home from hackamania and it was awful. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:47 Yeah, like your body can't recover from, I mean, me specifically, I don't sleep on planes. I can't sleep sitting up. So for me, if you could sleep through it and be good, then yeah, that's awesome. Then you're time traveling. Then that's a good deal. But that was basically my trip home.
Starting point is 00:03:03 I left Boston at four o'clock yesterday and got to DC, and then I sat in the DC airport for four hours before they canceled my flight at like 10 o'clock and then put us in a hotel. But my flight out of DC this morning was at 5 a.m., so I got like four hours in the hotel, and I don't think I slept any of those hours. And then back at the airport and nonstop flights, so I got home at like 9 a.m. this morning and got
Starting point is 00:03:29 in bed and I kind of just want to go back there which airline you take American fuck American I knew he was gonna say American American we took American because it was a direct flight what did tab say next I did not want to take American they fucked me over so bad in the past. I avoid them. Yeah. Like the plague. They fucked us coming back from Cape Cora.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Yes, they did. It was super annoying because it was like the flight was supposed to leave just before eight to get back here. And then it was like, oh, it's going to be nine now, just before nine. Now it's going to be just before 10. Now it's going to be just before 11.
Starting point is 00:04:04 And then it was like, actually it's canceled. Fuck you You could have canceled this, you know three hours ago and I could have at least you know Relax during this time and maybe slept Yes, muttering Jay, I'm anti American Airlines Don't take that out of context, please Be very bad Don't take that out of context, please. Be very bad. Anti-American, you say.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Let's talk about our first day there. We came in on Friday, and thankfully, someone told us to go to the Seaport. We bought, Mike brought that up. We had someone else too tell us that's the place to be. And that was great. I liked this place that we went to. Cisco Brewery, or Cisco Brewing, something like that. That was great. I liked this place that we went to Cisco
Starting point is 00:04:45 Brewery or Cisco brewing something like that. Yeah, and it was enormous. So here's just a quick shot. I took tents and and outdoor Stuff this is like it's right there in the city. That's only a fraction of it. It's like yeah Three or four. That's only a quarter of it. It's like yeah three or four. That's only a quarter of it. It's a huge courtyard with beer Stations all around the bars everywhere was perfect never hard to get a beer and The worst but worst margarita pizza never had He was not that real stingy with the fresh mozzarella too much ketchup
Starting point is 00:05:25 Yeah, look it took one look at that and I said we're gonna go up this true we went through this like boutique bowling alley in like an entertainment complex with an Alamo draft house and got Boston chicken wings I know I was yelling at you Andy like you're like I got wings. They weren't very good like we're from New York You don't go to Boston to get wings you fucking Maple bourbon wings Manager came up and was like thanking us for trying the food. He's like
Starting point is 00:06:05 And I said I understand Nobody thought anyone would ever order that so thank you sure that's what you want It's only because the food and the service sucks sir, but yeah Wow there were a lot of weirdos at Cisco Jeff Jeff Yeah He brought his portage on Which was great try to get a lot of photos. I took more photography than usual. I wanted to be able to capture the weekend
Starting point is 00:06:40 So I waited in line the whole time to get in with Jeff. Oh you dead. Yeah, he was right in front of me Here's a weirdo Here's me and another weirdo Good looking group doing a lot of show and tell hey look who's here speaking of weirdos Blind Mike Geary, what's up? Some guys Mike gonna see you again Mike was not with us Friday night No, I was not that sounds like a hellish nightmare to me. Yeah, I had a feeling that this was not a something
Starting point is 00:07:11 You'd want to do it sounds like a hellish nightmare But Mike weren't you the one that told us all that we should go to the lovely time It was my social anxiety nightmare exactly yeah. Yeah, it was a lot. It was a lot. It was, it was weird because there were a lot of like, it was a huge event space and there were a lot of people that weren't us there. And usually on those meetups, we like find a, you know, midsize bar and just kind of run everyone else out with our being assholes.
Starting point is 00:07:39 We weren't able to do that. I know you tried tab, but there were still people there. Yeah, it's a cool area I forgot it was a Friday night in the summer, so I just was not thinking of that well Thankfully someone told me I got an email from a guy who goes you're going to Cisco on a Friday night There's a line. It takes on purpose takes an hour to get in there Yeah, and so we got there early, and I got we got right in which worked out well Because yes, there were other people who like were standing in line for a long time But everyone found us because we were by the port of John's yeah
Starting point is 00:08:19 Find us That worked out well But I had a great time. There's a lot of people who came out to the the thing beforehand the night before Follow the stench. Very easily, yes. Yeah. So that worked out well. But I had a great time. There was a lot of people who came out to the thing beforehand, the night before. Yeah. A lot of familiar faces, a lot of new faces. That was a good time.
Starting point is 00:08:35 I'm glad we did that. Yeah, that's always one of the best parts of the weekend is that Friday, just casual meetup with all the people coming into town, getting the drinks, saying hey. No, obviously a lot of dickheads there. This is a big event for the Dick Show. And as we were mentioning earlier, Dick is not feeling 100% and he took the red eye and he was kinda down a lot of the weekend.
Starting point is 00:09:02 So he ghosted at some point and people kept kept filtering in, and I started to feel bad, because it's just like, hey, is Dick here? I'm like, I think he is, yeah, he's around here somewhere. I was just chatting with him a minute ago, yeah. He just missed him. Yeah, he was donezo. It's weird, because I was on the show with Dick, but I never actually officially met him,
Starting point is 00:09:20 and I think that's because he and I seem very similar, where neither of us will talk, unless you directly speak to us So we never really met up. That's my fault I should have introduced you because you guys sat next to there for two hours before the show started I forgot you guys haven't done shows together or anything like that. I didn't know Funny guy though very funny guy very good entertainer the the show was was fantastic anything else about Friday that you guys remember any other things that we should discuss before we move on to Saturday show day I
Starting point is 00:09:58 Go ahead go ahead. No, that's fine. Oh, I was just gonna say I really it was a very social Socially overwhelming experience for me at first But getting to hang out with everybody I really eased into it I had so much fun meeting and talking with people I think tab you're exactly right that always is one of my favorite nights because I love getting to actually say hello to people And I feel like I'm sure they're saying two exactly different things Social anxiety a nightmare. It's the beer the alcohol helped solve
Starting point is 00:10:26 that problem meeting all the wonderful people okay it was great so I ended up having a wonderful night are you making sense of this am I the crazy it was horrific wonderful understand you've got to be up to enjoy it that's what she's saying it was a nightmare that became a wet dream. It depends on who you're as. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we did see all those people the next night. I mean, that's also fun. Yes. I like that we had the polar opposite experience
Starting point is 00:10:54 at the after hours place, where Tab and Jen and Carl and I went to this place called Pink Taco on our way to a place that was highly recommended. It's either packed or Not worth going to because we were in we could see the place and there was a line around the corner And we said well, we're not gonna do that so we went to this other place Nobody was there and the staff sucked they treated us like shit. They didn't want us there now that That that place blue dog yeah So pink tacos that like a lesbian place because there was a lot of those
Starting point is 00:11:28 I know it's pride month. So maybe that's why well. Yeah, it's a franchise. There's other ones around the country I don't know it was it just for like check. Yes going down another girls because I didn't feel welcomed there I guess is my point well neither did I? They didn't know that I'm a real just do it The wrong kind of gay Yeah, I felt like the droids in Star Wars yeah, we don't serve their type here I'm sorry. I'll go sit out here, and then we're sitting out on the patio. They go, you gotta get out of the patio. Why?
Starting point is 00:12:06 We're just, we're doing, because you're podcasters, asshole. We're literally, Read the sign. In Boston, even our gays are bigoted. Yeah, that place was really, really off. And that it needed, it felt like it was gonna be open for another couple hours,
Starting point is 00:12:24 but it also felt like they were trying to close and they were resentful the fact that anyone was there trying to you know Give them more money. Well. I sat at the one side of the bar, and they said this side of the bars closed Okay, yeah, so and then we went and sat on the patio and they said the patio is closed Yeah, and then we went inside and they said you can't sit at any of the tables, right? Everything just said is literally what happened to us, and they're like let's get another round the fuck are we thinking yeah? Next time Adios well while that was happening good old Vinny Paulino was buying me and mrs. Vinny and Lucy shake Shack burgers, and they were fucking awesome, Okay, so I chose poorly is what you're telling me.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Yeah. Yes. I was talking to, I don't know if Vinny's gonna be able to hop on, because he's a buff workout guy. Yeah, he's a health guy. He's jogging at the beach right now. I'm not even joking. Did I get it? I was talking to you, I did the creep off today.
Starting point is 00:13:17 He's like, I don't know if I can come on, I got my cardio today, I'm at the beach. It's 112 degrees, he's jogging at the beach, but that's good for him, I'm glad. He can run into the water. He might die. But he was telling me that it was an interesting experience for his wife, who's never been to one of these live shows before.
Starting point is 00:13:33 She was like, people are singing along with the jingles? What's going on? Are you guys popular? What's happening right now? She had no idea. What did Vinny tell her beforehand? That's what I wanna know. She probably said, yeah, there are a lot of people come out, they're big fans of the show, they love it. She went no idea. What did Vinny tell her beforehand? That's what I wanna know. She probably said, yeah, there are a lot of people come out,
Starting point is 00:13:46 they're big fans of the show, they love it. She went, okay. I doubt it. Tell me another. Yeah, we'll see about that. That might've been the thing that stood out most to me was when I heard people singing my transvestite children for TikTok.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Dude, I played that twice. It's such a toe-tapper. You just can't get enough of that one. In fact, I'll tell you what it sounds like. It sounds a little something like this. Yay! Sitting in my mobile coffee shop Making videos about my Translator children for TikTok. I gotta figure out who sent that in. We gotta give them proper credit.
Starting point is 00:14:28 It's been a while. To think that that's the one that caught on when there's this Woke Dad jingle. Pfft. Oh, that's not the Woke Dad jingle. I actually don't know this one. And other hits like. No, this one.
Starting point is 00:14:42 I would do anything in my power to keep them happy, healthy, and safe. The name that they would call their superhero was Faulted. I stand up against injustice. Faulted. Standing up for what's right. You get the point.
Starting point is 00:14:53 You get the point. I was excited. So it was Dick Show and Who Are These podcasts. But because Blind Mike was there, because Vinny was there, we had some creep off elements. We had some Who are these social elements, and I felt everything landed, everything seemed to work. I'm getting ahead of myself.
Starting point is 00:15:10 It seemed like the show went very well, people enjoyed it. Did you get that sense, Mike? Yeah, I will admit there were times, because I don't know Dick's show as well, where the crowd's going nuts. And I'm like, I have no fucking idea what we're talking about. They're all chanting his name. He's showing pictures of his vacation. And I'm like, I don't know what's're talking about. They're all chanting his name. He's showing pictures of his vacation.
Starting point is 00:15:26 And I'm like I don't know what's going on here. But yeah, no, I'm really happy. He's like, look it, I found some graffiti over here. Look at this photo, I took a graffiti. Waaaaa! But yeah, it seemed like every segment had its own. It may have appealed to different parts of the audience. But every segment seemed to hit.
Starting point is 00:15:42 And what's your... So you've been doing live podcasts with Kirk Minahan Yeah, what was the? Similarities the differences how would you compare the two? so this was more we've done events like Theater he's done like theater shows like the Wilbur here in Boston and stuff like that. So we're popular I get it But the difficult thing for that is like I not only can I not see it though, I also can't hear
Starting point is 00:16:10 a fucking thing. Oh Jesus. Those are tough for me to participate in. And then when you guys were on stage something occurred to me and I leaned in to Justin who was with me and I said, are they wearing headphones right now? And he looks up and he goes no And I go well Here goes nothing. I thought I wasn't gonna be able to hear again And then I was gonna walk up there and you'd say something to me. I'd be like right. Oh Carl you said it Luckily the way that gun you was set up. I could hear so now I see your lips moving. I like it No, so what actually what happened we said we did the soundcheck and I do bring headphones like in Detroit
Starting point is 00:16:48 We'll bring headphones because drew insists on it and he's right We should have headphones, but we bring headphones to some of these shows but at this venue City Winery They have the monitor speaker. It's set up for a music venue so they the monitor speakers and everything and I guess I didn't put it in the writer that we needed a monitor speaker, because they were like, oh, you want monitors on stage? I was like, yeah. I didn't want to be able to hear what's going on. And so we did set up one monitor speaker.
Starting point is 00:17:11 There seemed to be enough. Well, that just dawned on me today. I was like, you know what? We didn't have headphones, and I could hear everything perfectly. Yeah. I used to be real weird about live shows, like setting it up like it's a radio show
Starting point is 00:17:22 or like it's a podcast, and I've gotten better with that. Like, it's a venue. It's a's a podcast and I've gotten better with that My god, it's a venue. It's a live venue. We're just gonna be fine. Well while we're talking about the monitor. I just want to say That was the most can-do spirit Crew yeah had our sound guy Two years ago when we did it with the dick show was also like that There was a whole crew of people who are just running around doing anything we asked them to do, getting us food, going to places across the street. Nothing was a fucking problem.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Yeah. Everything happened. But CityWinder treated us very well. Yeah. Yeah, Mason was the guy that was like, I guess our services guy, and he was so nice, like just bringing us food, getting us drinks, making sure we had anything we needed,
Starting point is 00:18:03 whatever request, he was just like, yeah, no problem, and he was so chill. Coolio. Coolio. I haven't stopped saying coolio. It's his catchphrase. He had a crutch word, holy shit. Did he have a crutch word?
Starting point is 00:18:15 There were a few times he threw it in there where I was like, it's gotta be a bit now, where someone bet him, I bet you can't say it this many times. It's like he's doing the super troopers meow thing. We're like, ah. Yeah, exactly. He actually took me aside, he's like, is doing the super troopers meow thing. We're like, ah. Yeah, exactly. He actually took me aside.
Starting point is 00:18:26 He's like, is everything good? I said, coolio. Did you really? I was elated. He's catching on. Me too, brother. At one point, his control seemed to start slipping with as many things as Blind Mike was requesting backstage.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I mean, talk about diva. Fucking Blind Mike, he's just like, keep the food coming assholes We couldn't get Mike to take advantage of anything this this place is copying all the food and drinks or whatever you want They're running and getting it for us and we're like Mike. Seriously. Do you want something? I'm great. I'm great. I'm good I don't I don't want to be a problem. You wouldn't have been a problem could have ordered dinner We all ordered all eating dinner everybody eat dinner. I think even Justin got something Good I'd rather sit in silence next to dick for two hours
Starting point is 00:19:15 This guy I'll never meet All right well I Haven't mentioned this oh, I'm sorry I was just gonna say it was out of all the city wineries that we've done live shows at, it was the perfect size for, we did Nashville, that felt like it was too big, and then we did New York,
Starting point is 00:19:35 that felt like it was too small, I felt like Goldilocks. This one was just right? Yeah, yeah. I agree, in fact. It was amazing how many people they crammed in there too. Like, it's so close quarters, all those tables. Yeah, and then like fact it is amazing how many people they crammed into in there too like it's so close quarters all those tables Yeah, and they're like I walked out on stage, and I was like holy shit. There's a lot of people here Yeah, here's a great photo of the crowd. I've been doing this more recently
Starting point is 00:19:56 I'm like oh, it seems douchey to pull out your phone and take a photo of the audience But that's what I do it. I'm like I'm glad I did that cuz now I can Shultz does it you can do it okay yeah yeah I'm totally justified well you have to prove to Kevin Brennan that people were there yeah it's mostly for steeltoe I'll be waiting for him to tell me what a failure my event was that he wasn't that doesn't know anything about. I think I was saying this to producer Chris that I don't realize it has seeped into my subconscious somehow. Because obviously when I listen to John say like, oh, it was four losers at this show in Rochester.
Starting point is 00:20:37 Like, obviously I'm like, oh, he's lying. He's an idiot. But then when I showed up, I'm like, somewhere in me, I was like, that's probably going to be four losers here. People showed up on my like somewhere in me I was like that's probably gonna be four losers here Times a hundred so yeah, I do want to I didn't mention this yet But we do have the super tip system in play right now And that's how you get to interrupt the show and ruin everyone's time by going to super tip that GG slash WATP and Hunter Duke who was there with mrs. Hunter Duke Duke yeah, he comes out to a lot of these shows great to see him He's here supporting us right now, and that didn't work for some reason yeah Hmm. He said something nice Why is that not coming up on the screen? I should have tested this it was powerful stuff guys
Starting point is 00:21:24 Probably should have tested this thing ahead of time It was powerful stuff guys Probably should have tested this thing ahead of time But give it up for the Dukes. They are great. They are fantastic They gifted me a movie that I've been looking for for a very long time. They gifted me a Mexican werewolf in Texas Wow, which is a really dumb movie Jesus yeah, I love it. It has one of the best booby reveals in cinema history. I've seen some good ones. Is the werewolf a lady werewolf?
Starting point is 00:21:54 It's it's a chupacabra. And I believe it's a man with boobs. No, a girl's boobs. I was trying to get the reveal from the monster. Human boobies, human bo boobies it's worth the watch All right, we've amped long enough no I'll go over to super chats and thank Jim Polgar becoming a YouTube member. Thank you very much Jim

You get those when you become a member Thank you very much Jonathan Mardukas ten bucks Can't catch live but boss was fantastic exceeded expectations Carl was even funner Adam was even more interesting producer Chris is the nicest guy on the earth and why Mike couldn't see shit It's all true. It was great. Well. Thank you very much Jonathan. Thanks for being here I think I said this on my show the other day I hope this doesn't sound like an insult to Adam Bush, but like I know everyone says he's always very serious
Starting point is 00:23:05 He was very funny Saturday night. Oh, yeah Yeah, he was very funny conversationally, too. I was just asshole to him for no reason Friday night Everything was forgiven and he was super chill the rest of the weekend I really enjoyed meeting Adam Adam did a thing to, and I'm glad you brought this up. I would not have. So Friday night, we get back from the bar, and Adam doesn't show up at our place till like after 1 a.m. And it's me and producer Chris and Tab,
Starting point is 00:23:35 we're still up, and Adam comes in, and we're chatting with him and stuff. And like you said, Tab maybe was over-served a little bit. And the next morning on Saturday, Adam comes up and he sees Tab and he goes, hey, I'm Adam Bush. Nice to meet you. And I went, was that a move to like,
Starting point is 00:23:52 in case Tab was black out, he could think that nothing happened. Did he say I'm TV's Adam Bush? Well, I don't think so. Because then I said to Carl, I was like, no, we met last night and I was a huge asshole. Aw, Tab. DD885B says, hello from Boston, I missed the show but enjoyed the video, maybe next time, good job guys.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Well thank you very much. Speaking of TVs, Adam Bush, what's up Adam? Yeah Tab, I was giving you an out. I was giving you like a reset. I had a feeling, yeah, that was very sweet of you to do that. Cause I didn't know what we were gonna be like. You might have been like, no, no, fucking
Starting point is 00:24:26 define art, motherfucker. You tell me what I'm like right now. Because that's where we left it the night before. You never know what you're going to get. And I was really happy when you were like, hey, nice to meet you. And then we had a blast. Yeah, we did.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Jeff Massey, $5. I loved meeting all of you. And the show was absolutely perfect. Andy and Lucie are now two of my favorite people on earth. Got good taste. It was great meeting Jeff. He said Andy. Oh, I misread that, sorry.
Starting point is 00:24:53 No, thank you Matt, thank you so much. Having acquired taste, okay. Dr. Omega, I miss you guys already. Xoxo, scola. And look at this celebrity who's here in the chat with us Tony from heck the movies I'm sad. I couldn't be there, but I'm also happy Vito wasn't there Big you know why he wasn't there liberty Why don't you know Tony was not there because he had to go see the Batmobile in person the same Batmobile that he has seen
Starting point is 00:25:22 I believe twice before in person, the same Batmobile that he has seen, I believe twice before in person. Look, he went to see an inanimate object overhanging out with us. I would go see the Batmobile too. Listen, you could have, and you didn't. Yeah, you could have. So there. I'm sorry, I'm rebooting OBS right now.
Starting point is 00:25:40 I feel like Tookey. He also, do you know what else? Do you know what else Tony just recently did? Tony just went to Gebhart's. Really? Oh, I saw him tooky. He also, do you know what else? Do you know what else Tony just recently did? Tony just went to GebHarts. Really? Oh, I saw him, yeah. He was there with Manny Muskets. He was live streaming with Manny Muskets.
Starting point is 00:25:51 He did a great job opening the show. Somehow Manny managed to be in both places, Tony, you fuck. Yeah. That's true, that's a good point. That's a good point. Manny was fantastic. He opened up the show for us. And Manny very famously likes to bring drugs to these events and
Starting point is 00:26:10 I asked him if he brought drugs. He's how much money do you have? From the green room Maybe next time just pull him aside I did actually get a good pop at the green room. That's a good point. Maybe next time just pull him aside. Maybe, just maybe not in front of everyone. Yeah, koi about it. Yeah, you're probably right.
Starting point is 00:26:29 On the DL. I'm an idiot. I do everything wrong, Adam. TV's Adam Bush. I've heard they appreciate that. I don't know the code. I don't know the lingo. All right, so let's talk about the green room real quick.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Okay. And this is my fault. I think it's my fault. Maybe it's not. It's your fault. It probably is What happened is I get a schedule from the city winery that says all right Carl get here three soundchecks at 330 Meet and greets at 430 doors at 530 shows at 730 and I go great sounds good And then we get there and I'm like wait
Starting point is 00:27:01 Why are the two hours between the meet and greet and the show do we need? Doors to be two hours before the show starts? In what world does that make any sense? And we're all sitting awkwardly in the green room for two hours, just kinda, every now and again, so it's like, ah, so you guys hear about this thing? Yeah. We told you. There was a point where we crammed into a not room Yeah, we told you
Starting point is 00:27:28 Crammed into a knot Room that wasn't really meant to hold 11 people Lucy was eating her dinner on the floor because Carl's backpack Get the chair and Carl's backpack gets a chair Let's not turn me into a monster over here. Jesus Christ. There's a point where like you guys all finished your food and then we were kind of just waiting around for a while and then Vinnie goes, wait there's 40 minutes before the show starts?
Starting point is 00:27:56 It felt like we'd already been waiting for hours. Yeah, it was literally hours. Well we asked to start earlier too and we were not permitted. He said he would screw up the table service. All right. Which was very important. I mean. It's a money maker.
Starting point is 00:28:14 People gotta eat. All right, I'm gonna try something, guys. Let's see if this works. This would be so amazing if this were to work right now. Oh my god, it worked, I fixed it. KJ! Finally got to meet in person. KJ's been a huge supporter of this show. And she just gave us $100.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Says, my first Devilverse event and it was amazing. Jen and Lucy are so lovely. Chris, the hair is more breathtaking in person. And Carol couldn't have been nicer. Boston might need to become a yearly event like Detroit. Oh, that's interesting Good Boston become an annual For it, I'm not against it Hutterduke
Starting point is 00:28:55 amazing time like always When do we get wide live in Colorado just for the meetup at Casa Bonita? We're on to Detroit We are on to Detroit. We are on to Detroit. I do like that idea. Yeah, that's a good idea. Doesn't that Casa Bonita have a little mini theater? Probably, yeah. I'll tell you what, when we play Red Rocks,
Starting point is 00:29:14 we'll meet up at Casa Bonita, right? We'll perform in the cave. At Casa Bonita. All that is holy, do not let big, chungus blind my geary sit on you Our boy is no longer a small lithe twink But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked you grew fat you grew thick you are obese Then he forsook God who made him Deuteronomy 32 15 they run in Israel, sign a peace accord, just do it!
Starting point is 00:29:46 All right, well, it's getting political over here. That is all I was talking about on weekend, though. So it makes sense that that would be what my AI voice would be talking about. All right, Super Tip is back on, everybody. We fixed the Super Tip machine. Supertip.gg slash WHTP. Thank you for that.
Starting point is 00:30:03 How embarrassing in front of all my friends too. Just not work like that. One thing we did all share in the green room was what that chat was just talking about. We all got to hear everybody's vocal reaction to how we look physically and how disappointed they are by the image they had in their head and what was in front of them.
Starting point is 00:30:22 It was very sweet. Yeah, I mentioned this at the show, but the funniest thing was I'm walking out for the meet-and-greet And there's 65 people in the bar area waiting to meet us And there's so there's a lot of murmuring and noise and everything and all I hear plain as day Perfectly as well curls way better than I thought it was There was one specific asshole that was insisting on trying to pick everyone up that was that guy I want to see those pictures I Do you want to see those pictures of all you guys being lifted up by that dude? Oh, right?
Starting point is 00:30:57 It was oh, okay now. I understand what you're saying for mr. 138 yes the reason that he was so concerned about how big Carl was is because he was planning on picking you up in a little While right, okay, so it's not normal to yell when some guy walks into a room about how fatty he is No, you're telling me lately. Look at this big fat fatty. Mike's like no, that's pretty normal. It's how people say hi No, it hurts more because you know he couldn't he doesn't think you could hear him so you know he meant it. Yeah he was just telling his friend. He wasn't like hey Carl you fat fuck. He was trying to hurt you he was just observing honestly and reporting.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Yeah right that might be the worst part thanks Adam. That might be the worst part about it now that I think about it. Just for clarification. Appreciate that. All right, so I fucked up the schedule. It was way too much time between the meet and greet and the show. I don't know why that is, but I gotta give myself credit for one thing.
Starting point is 00:31:57 I really rode their asses about having bartenders on duty during the meet and greet, because do you remember Philadelphia? Yes. And we had 60 people next to a bar with a bartender who hadn't opened the bar yet. He was just making busy work for himself, just wandering back and forth. Did not mind negative attention, I'll tell you that. And the worst part was, which is actually great for me, is that all of us had a stocked
Starting point is 00:32:22 bar back in the green room, so we're're all going getting drinks and coming back out talking to people and all people paid for it couldn't have a single drink that was so shitty so weird the way that worked out so anyway at least here I was like well if you're gonna have people in it for 30 make sure there's a person there who can serve beverages and they did althoughely, after when everyone wanted to drink at the bar, only the artists could get them. It was embarrassing. Yeah, they closed early.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Yeah, this guy wanted to get me a shot so bad, and he's waiting and waiting, and I believe his name was Jackson, was like, well, I'll get him a drink, and I'm like, I'm not gonna be that guy, no thank you. That's a first for you. Yeah, 10 minutes later I was flagging him down, I'm like, I actually get him a drink and I'm like I'm not gonna be that guy. No, thank you. That's a first for you Yeah, ten minutes later. I was fighting him down like I actually will have What's can you even get a shot in Boston what a fucking weird city that is no doubles when it comes to drinking
Starting point is 00:33:16 There's no happy hour. I think this is something the dick pointed out. Yeah Happy hours against the law so Actually, this is funny because I went to Cheers on Monday after, before leaving town. Yeah. And I went and ate there and they had a sign that was happy hours, but it's no H in it and it was discounted appetizers, but you know, drinks are all still full price. Well, I'll clarify. Yeah, please.
Starting point is 00:33:41 You can have happy hour. You can not, it can't be willy-nilly So if you have you do a happy hour it has to be every day at 5 p.m. You can't change it or anything like that. It can't be just on the weekends. It can't be just on Wednesdays For Mike what is the politician who's going guys? We're gonna make happy hour very convenient for everyone a recovering alcoholic Before I was a voting age, I had no say in this. I'm gonna move to Massachusetts and run for state house. That's gonna be a real one-ish thing. You got my vote. I should move there and vote for you.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Yeah. Tab, was that the Bull & Finch you went to? Yeah. Nice, I would've went. I didn't know you went. Yeah, it was kinda, I just went downtown and was wandering around and was like, ah, you know, might as well do the touristy, most touristy thing you can do. I love how all the bars around it are called like three cheers cheers
Starting point is 00:34:31 Get all the suckers to come in just a Google Maps. Just yeah, you're just eats it up like odds. I saw cheers Let's go there This like hop on hop off tram tour was pulled up to it and like 15 people got off and I was like walking down the steps as they're all getting off I was like these people aren't getting seated, but they actually sat them all pretty quickly For such a small place it was like there's no way you can get this many people in here So it really was personal against us everywhere we went And that's why you got such bad service at Pink Taco.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Oh, god, it's the worst. All right, let's talk about the show proper. The audience was the best. They were great. It might be my expectations, because I know a dick show audience can get rowdy. I've been at these shows before. This is my first rodeo.
Starting point is 00:35:25 But I also was concerned about the people who showed up at 4.30 and the show starts at 7.30 and I went, oh, this is a long day of drinking before the show starts and we're gonna do a three hour show. So that's, add three more hours to three hours, whatever that is. There's no way to know. I love the 10s.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Who said six? Six. That's why he's center square. 10th spent the weekend with me, and went, this guy's a fucking idiot. I gotta explain to him what three plus three is. I get it, I get it, I'm dumb. It's true.
Starting point is 00:35:54 And yet, for some reason, even by the end of the show, Jen's going around with the wireless mic, talking to people. They were coherent. Yeah. They were using words. They were plants. Yeah, they were using words Why are you so awesome I
Starting point is 00:36:13 Get that a lot actually and grab my note cards here Light and so engaged yeah, it's good. Yeah, I heard about one person passed out in a puddle of vomit in the bathroom. Oh, really? I didn't hear about that. What did my brother do? Yeah. He was a problem. Yeah. Now this is the other thing I heard about,
Starting point is 00:36:32 but I didn't see myself, so I'm interested in what you guys' experience was, because I was on stage for the whole time. Dick does his thing, he shows his little PowerPoint presentation, and as we were talking about before, people love that. Here's a photo I took three hours ago in the city. And then we did, Tab was up there
Starting point is 00:36:51 and he was talking about his shit, which I do want to talk about with you because I really want people to get on your case and help you with that. So remind me. But then we go in and we do, Tricia Paytas and Lizzo Did a podcast together and we follow that up with fat watch
Starting point is 00:37:10 Which is nothing but fat people falling over and humiliating themselves And I was told that There was a heavy set server who seemed very upset about the cat that? This is a folk house they're not used to this right it's very inclusive and very in an older tradition of listening rooms where everybody puts their phones down and listens to the music. And they, I thought, showed respect and gave the room over to the people who'd sold it out and did everything they could to make it a great show
Starting point is 00:37:54 and stayed open as late as we wanted. Even long after they were gonna make bread, everyone was supportive, but everyone got hit. Every single person in that place had, including myself, went, ah! and that's just part of the game That's what we're doing there, and it felt fair, but it was interesting to witness I mean it was a pretty long block of just making fun of fat people that too Yeah, that was specific. I was breaking it up with other stuff in between and then someone told me and I can't remember who this was
Starting point is 00:38:23 But someone was walking out of the showroom or something and there was employees like, how offensive is this show, is everything okay? Like they were concerned about it being super offensive. Oh, I didn't hear any of that. So then I was talking to the people who were there to make our lives easy. I go, is everything cool, are we good?
Starting point is 00:38:40 They're like, oh yeah, this is great. Like, okay. And then Jen and Lucy and Andy and Andy's wife were working the merch table afterwards, which was incredible. Like tons of people coming through and grabbing merch. And I go to the guy, I think it was Mason, maybe it was Jackson, they look the same.
Starting point is 00:38:57 And I go, do you need us to get out of here? Like, are we like overstaying our welcome? And he goes, I get paid by the hour. All right, cool. Well, then you don't give a shit, so I guess we'll. He said Coolio. He said Coolio. That's how I knew which one it was.
Starting point is 00:39:15 I would say it was a pretty high number of, a rate of sales for the merch at this one, too. A lot of people were very into it. People loved the poster. People were glad that, a lot of people were very into it People loved the poster people were glad that the people a lot of people were like the dick bring merch too And I was like do you think dick trunk? You got a bunch of merchant from LA on a plane. No, it's like you could have the Philly poster or you could have this poster Yeah, I mean when we did Philly we ordered brand new shirts just for that show and we had them printed in Philadelphia So there were the Philly shirts at the show and then veto just walled He started just fucking putting a sharpie on
Starting point is 00:39:51 Under shirts, and that's what's actually anybody's the floor with us. Yeah, Tony who did that he was making the the sharpie under shirts. Yeah Oh was that I've been playing all this time that was Tony him and him and meant we're doing it on veto's behalf But there was like there was a whole I know it was veto shit Yeah, it was it was a super killer shirt like dick and I invested Hundreds and hundreds of dollars and time and we had an artist put this awesome Designed together with me and dick on the shirt and all this cool shit And then veto just like fucking starts here or whoever is just drawing on an undershirt and everyone's fucking lined up for that shit. Speak it up.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Oh, go ahead. I was just gonna say, I wanna go back to the posters for a second. Mintzella did an awesome job on this poster. We have so many great posters, but I really loved this one. And I think that's one of the reasons people were going so crazy for him.
Starting point is 00:40:40 I agree, it looked amazing. Yeah, I love Carl just bashing in Adid's head with a rock. Yeah, I agree. It looked amazing. Yeah, I love Carl just bashing in a deed's head with a rock Yeah, there's Johnny the audio engineer is like throwing a rock and smashing someone in the face and men explained to me all the people who are On it cuz it's like there's someone beating up Maddox. There's someone else beat up Opie's that are Johns in the mix I'm like, I mean, I don't recognize those faces, but I like the idea of it That we're just you know, it was a revolutionary thing. You know, we were obviously the Americans
Starting point is 00:41:11 America Mike is doing something in the back. Yeah, Mikey likes fighting this way. Mike Mike was yeah In the back that was pretty great. I wasn't on the post. I wasn't on the show originally, right? So the couple people had me sign I colored in stuttering John's hair blue and then signed on top of him Yeah in Mike's defense Justin wasn't on the poster either, so that's why he didn't know what was going on Alright the other big highlight of the show Harrison Young yeah producer Chris you had a lot to do with making sure Harrison Young was there, which I know wasn't easy.
Starting point is 00:41:49 No, he's slippery. He's a tough one to nail down. So thank you for making that happen. Do you want to tell the story about trying to communicate with him and give him the show? It was just, I'm sure you can use your imagination if you've seen Harrison before. You can almost hear how the phone calls would go. The first time I called him,
Starting point is 00:42:11 he pretended he couldn't hear me. He was just doing this old man kind of paranoid thing. I'm like, W-A-T-P, producer Chris. He's like, who, what? Yeah, so let's just flash forward and say I was delighted when I went through the crowd and go find something and there He was real close to the front. I'm like no shit, and He's kind of a grump in person. I
Starting point is 00:42:39 Unless you're a pretty girl. Yeah, I was yeah, and even that I don't know he's Unless you're a pretty girl. Yeah, and even then, I don't know. So I'm walking by and I'm like, oh man, you made it. And before I could even introduce myself, because who might you be? I'm like, well, I'm producer Chris. We talked a lot and I thought you were familiar
Starting point is 00:42:57 with our show, but okay. You've been out of me, Mark. Yeah, I've been out of me now. Well, the funniest part about that was, so it was me and Chris and this guy Adam Thoreau, who's my video editor, who was the one who introduced us to Harrison in the first place. He works out in New England, so he's familiar with the public access TV show that Harrison does.
Starting point is 00:43:20 And we're all trying to figure out, how do we make this a surprise? I wanna bring up Harrison, and people are like, whoa, Harrison's here. And so we're trying to figure out, how do we make this a surprise? I wanna bring up Harrison, and people are like, whoa, Harrison's here. So we're trying to figure out how to do that. We have this conference call, impromptu. And so Chris calls up Harrison and says, listen, this is a surprise.
Starting point is 00:43:35 No one's gonna know you're gonna be there. We're gonna bring you into the show. It's gonna get a big pop, it's gonna be exciting. And Harrison goes right to Facebook and goes, I'm gonna be at the Who Are These Podcasts show. Impossible. Like you explained it was a surprise multiple times. That was like the main thing about this conversation.
Starting point is 00:43:52 We don't know what we're doing yet, but it's a surprise, don't tell anyone. Yeah, well originally we were gonna have Dick react to some Topic Time videos, and then ambush Dick by bringing up Harrison. And we realized that was never gonna fucking work out. Ironically, it would. It kind of did though.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Yeah, it did. Yeah, oh, Dick was very confused as to what the hell was going on when the topic time clip started getting played. Yes, it kind of did work out because I don't think Dick recognized that Harrison was there. Oh.
Starting point is 00:44:23 And we were talking about having him in the green room with us. Could you imagine what a nightmare that would have been? Not doing that. Thank you for not doing that. He would have fallen asleep on Lucy's lap. I had a couple very special moments with him. Of course, as we were leaving the stage, he tried to plant a plant to kiss on me. Jesus. Yeah, it was great It was something
Starting point is 00:44:49 But we get off the stage and he goes and he sits right back down He's sitting up in the front of the room And I went over to him and I put my hand on his shoulder and I said Harrison I just wanted to say that you did a really great job, and he goes I know and starts watching the show again, and I was like Okay, all right, neat. So odd-brand. Great, great interaction.
Starting point is 00:45:09 And then at the end of the show, all of us had gotten up on stage so that we could take pictures with everybody and had the big group of us on stage. And Harrison was standing next to me. And he was shorter than me, especially in my heels. And so he had his head, like, nuzzled into my shoulder. And he whispers I could stand here all night, and I was like
Starting point is 00:45:29 Yes, Harrison. There's the photo He's doing the story John lean over. I'm also leaning Unfortunately we didn't have Blind Mike in this one, but I think just about everybody else on the show He's wandering around the back like the poster Shop them in that's a good call of a blind mic in this one. But I think just about everybody else on the show is up to stage here. He's wandering around the back like the poster. I want you to Photoshop him in, that's a good call. That's a terrific call.
Starting point is 00:45:50 It's a great idea. Tab obviously dresses better than all of us. Yes. Oh yeah. And I thought Harrison would wear his polyester suit. No shit. It looked like he'd come from mowing the lawn. My biggest regret. Seemed sweaty and dirty a little bit.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Yeah. About a year ago, he stopped wearing those polyester suits and he started really leaning into the t-shirts and that was one of the main questions I really wanted to ask him about and I completely blanked on it and didn't ask. Oh, I think you could have done an hour long Harrison in a second. I wanna know.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I wanted you guys to just keep on asking him more and more questions because every answer was more fascinating than last and tab I pulled the plug on it because we were trying to move things along Yeah, I know I know what you mean because even when I was like, all right, well Harrison things are coming up It's like that's it. That's like yeah I got him there. I pulled clips for it. And then I had to give up my seat. I had fucking We had to keep it moving, but you know. Dick tried to sneak away from the show at that point,
Starting point is 00:46:50 right before topic time started, Dick's like, I didn't realize how much pain he's in. He's miserable. And so he goes, all right man, I'm gonna take it. But I'm like, no, no, no, you gotta be here for this. Like that was kind of the whole point of having Harrison Young was to get his reaction. He asked Harrison, Dick asked Harrison the best question,
Starting point is 00:47:06 which was, what advice do you have for Carl so that he can succeed? That's right. Oh my god, that was amazing. Do you remember what his answer was? His answer was, yeah, he can keep featuring me. Yep, more topic time segments on this show. And so we're all- That's how you get famous, Carl.
Starting point is 00:47:21 This is what we're all trying to figure out. Does Harrison know we're making fun of him? I? Was about to ask that do you think he has any concept of what that was? Out this is what you say there was an event held in Boston for me the other night. Yeah This was a conversation that lasted hours Friday night We were going back and forth amongst each other and I don't think we ever really Came to a full consensus, but it was a fascinating point of discussion About whether or not like he knows that he's being made fun of whether or not like he knows
Starting point is 00:47:55 We have a psychologist here with us Adam Bush. What do you think? What's your take on this? I'm curious What did his Facebook page say I was just gonna look have you seen what did he wrap this up did he? What did he oh? I haven't looked he just yes had a blast. Thanks to Kaylee and Carl Here's a post up there of him with you Adam and He has a post up there of him with you, Adam, and he's promoting that you're going to be on his show very soon. I went right up to him and I said, hey, and before I could even finish, he said, yeah, I know, when are you going to be on the show?
Starting point is 00:48:35 We must have got at least six different guests for his show that night alone. Some of the fans, one of the fans' girlfriends actually showed me a card. They're all women. She's like, I'm going to be on his show. Yeah, some of the fans Mm-hmm one of the fans girlfriends actually showed me a car. She's like I'm gonna be on his show Yeah, very every woman he met got a card and an invitation on the show. Oh, yeah Everyone else yeah, and he gave out so many cards. I was signing them after the show Okay, we said Mike Harrison young girl again And right at the end of the show even when we were all on the stage even after he had been such a huge part Of the show the sound guy came over to me. It's like do you want me to get rid of that guy? He just has that quality
Starting point is 00:49:20 Job he's having the bouncer. He's like out they care this great Speaking of bouncers there was a security guy guarding the the door to backstage Yeah, who was like so after the meet-and-greet? I was trying to get back there to go to the green room to hang out and and he's like stops me And he's like are you staff and I say I'm in the shit. I'm in the show. He goes. Are you staff? I'm in the show. Are you staff? I'm in the show and then finally Mason comes out goes. He's cool He got him like all right cool, and then I could walk through and then in the show. And he goes, are you staff? I'm in the show. Are you staff? I'm in the show. And then finally Mason comes out and goes, he's cool. He got him like, all right, cool. And then I could walk through. And then during the show, he's like watching Tik Toks.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Oh yeah. Loudly. And then at one point he's like messing with a piece that he kept messing with this piece of trim on the side of the stage. And I was like, what the fuck is this guy doing? There were a couple of things he was engaged in. He did pay attention to the Lizzo segment and he paid attention to, it might have been a cop cam thing, I'm not sure, but otherwise he couldn't be bothered. How could you stand, he's right next to me on the stage. He's next to the stage.
Starting point is 00:50:15 I'm on the stage, he's next to me. And he's watching TikTok videos with the volume on? With the volume up, yeah. How can you be that unaware of what's going on? We had the most polite audience. You would have never had to say, people in the back, shut the fuck up to this crowd. And yet you needed to say it to that security guard.
Starting point is 00:50:31 Yeah. By the way, for those people that are in the back, remember to shut the fuck up. I do like that we have that recorded with Ted Williams. It's beautiful. It does remind everyone at the beginning of every show. There was people chanting along with it. In the back, I really appreciated that.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Yes, there were. Supertip.gg slash W-A-T-P is where you can go to participate in the show like Wastier. Second live show was fun, come back to Philly again. Alright, I like Philly. I'll do that again. Although I was texting with Dick today, I'm like it was great to see you for the last time ever. Glad we got to hang out for the weekend. You know, he's a family man now. It might never happen again.
Starting point is 00:51:10 He's already having second thoughts. Oh, it's too late for that. Third Dry Master, I'm pretty sure. Even California. No, about retirement. I believe. I know, it was a joke. Fucking people, am I that unfunny?
Starting point is 00:51:24 Abortion jokes on the abortion guy abortion jokes don't work Dang lizard coming in Like everyone had a blast except for the Duke You think you're so clever not talking about me.

Adam, do you get Joss Whedon PTSD every time you look at Tab Burt? Listen, Sean, I spent the whole weekend with him and I didn't at all. But now that you've said it, it's all I can see. That is very, very accurate. It's not in person it's all I can see, that is very, very accurate. It's not in person, but on camera, yes, that is very eerie. Mike Roach, I get it, says,
Starting point is 00:53:13 what Chris dealt with sounds like the movie Get Him to the Greek, yes. Except for, yeah, he's not a drug addict, but yeah. Or a star. Well. Okay, it's actually the opposite of getting him to the Greek. Now that I think about it.

What else you guys what else were the highlights from the the show itself? Does anyone have anything they want to share? If I may I loved the the Trisha segment Yeah, and of course Harrison but the the biggest pop of the night and the biggest laugh that came from me,
Starting point is 00:55:08 and it means a lot because I already knew it was gonna happen. It was Vinny with the first reveal of that photo. For anyone who hasn't seen it or listened, I don't wanna blow it, but it sounds like this. I have a picture of the guy. You wanna see him? show my next picture? That worked so well,
Starting point is 00:55:45 because it was Vito Giswoldi. That worked so well, he did it a second time, and it worked again. Yeah. Just as well. Yeah. Jesus. It sounded like baseball.
Starting point is 00:55:55 As I said before, I don't know, Dick's show that well, so Justin was asking me like, who's Vito Giswoldi? And I was like, I think it's like Dick's co-host, but no one likes him so i don't know Pretty close Uh veto was a real pain in the ass for hackamania so he's been uh, yeah people like him people like veto We all like veto he was just he was going through it recently sure so we give him some no one in that bar liked him No one
Starting point is 00:56:24 There's a coincidence adam yeah, i guess then at the end like veto or uh, riley was like No one in that bar liked him. No one. I didn't see him. I was there. I'm trying to be nice. It was a coincidence, Adam. Yeah, I know. Because then at the end, Vito or Riley was like, thanks for not inviting Vito. And the crowd once again was just like, yeah! They squirreled here. It's almost as if Vito got the biggest applause of the night
Starting point is 00:56:38 because of that. It was insane. It was insane. Which brings us to what was really the most powerful and unhinged moment of the night, which was the ending when Jenny was out talking to the audience, and it just showed how connected and engaged and involved everyone was. It was almost as if, if you didn't know what was going on, everyone was speaking in a code.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Like we were all in the same union, and we were just about to go on strike or fight or something and it was just all really personal stuff and from chatters we all knew and then that rise to action that Clipa had against, who was it, against Vito? Yeah. And the place went wild and then we immediately found out that we had bombed Iran, and it broke into chants of USA, USA, and then Dick's like, don't worry, I know how to calm this down, and he started chanting in fake German over everything. Which is what you do to restore order. Mm-hmm, brilliantly.
Starting point is 00:57:41 And Carl assessed the situation, said a quick goodbye, and it was over. And for that one moment, no one had control of the room. And it was just an uprising, and everyone felt the same way, and it was really, really powerful. I think I said, on that note. Yes, I think that's exactly what he said. Because there's nothing more you can say. Yeah, we're not going to get better from here. I think he said, hail hamburger.
Starting point is 00:58:04 I don't think that's what I said. Jesus. I think you said, My heart goes out to you, My heart goes out to you. Give this guy a soundboard over here. Carlson, mission accomplished. My buddy, Mark Mood, who handles the Super Tip system, has put in a Super Tip with zero
Starting point is 00:58:21 dollars because he gets right to the front of the line being the guy who designed it and everything he says we've gotten to a point where if someone asks Adam to be on their show it tells you all you need to know about their show don't say that we have some other ones that didn't go the same way say Joey C went that we can show you that's true yeah you were on with Casey Armstrong we've been meaning to get went that we can show you that's true. Yeah, you were on with Casey Armstrong We've been meaning to get to that. Mm-hmm, and that is a really nice one. So that's only mostly true coming soon mayor interview was Interesting it was actually kind of about you that was
Starting point is 00:58:59 And not people making it about themselves and getting called out And not people making it about themselves and getting called out isn't a bad one It's almost too much about Adam if you ask me, but we'll play that WTP soon. That's coming soon We'll get around I might agree with you. No. No, I mean she certainly runs a good show and knows how to do an interview I was just surprised to learn how she's adjusting to marriage and being a mother It's a lot differently than I had expected. Yeah found that to be very revealing Anything else from the the live show that stuck out to anyone I Finally got to meet and speak with mr. Magenta. Oh, yeah, mr. Magenta was there which which Remembered to play a song because I completely forgot to prep that
Starting point is 00:59:39 And there may be a cold coming down the pike. Yeah He finally got his prize from years ago. That's right So I'm just saying if you had played his song imagine how that dialogue That was I've said this before but I don't know important this is but we did a live show I've heard a lot of great feedback from a people seem to really enjoy it and There was no Aaron Emholdt. There was no opi. There was no Maddox There's no stutters stuttering John So we might be a two or three trick pony
Starting point is 01:00:13 point here Obviously not one there's more than one when it comes to the show years finally found something else Trisha Paytas else Trisha Payne is We got any I just wanted to you know my show being all apologies all apologies podcast.com go find it I kept inviting people to the after parties. Oh, we're definitely going to the Green Dragon. I see you there We're gonna party all night, and and then I didn't go at all so I apologize Everybody that showed up there because I told him to go there none of us did because it was packed
Starting point is 01:00:49 No, those are the green dragon and then I think God I think like it ended up with three or four different little scattered gatherings the dickheads ended up at cause like tavern on the square and so I Meant and Riley were like yeah We'll give you you and Johnny and skit so Mike a ride and I was like great as we get in their car, and then we drive out of the parking garage and Follow the directions to get to Tavern on the square and we pull enough to Tavern on square me pulled into the same parking garage
Starting point is 01:01:18 We just because we had walked past everyone's spare ticket to their bar. Boston really is the worst. You miss one fucking turn, and you have to drive through the entire city. Big Ben, Parliament. That's all I kept thinking was that European vacation. Every time.
Starting point is 01:01:37 So I had had it after the show. I just needed... I didn't sleep great the night before I was Exhausted I wanted to go to the Green Dragon. I said good night to Andy and mrs. Andy like I'm just gonna uber back to the Airbnb. Yeah, we saw you Thank you. That's where I was going with this. It turns out everyone shows up 20 minutes later They're like, yeah, we're all watching you grab that hair Uber, you know, you're like you're the luckiest boy in the world.
Starting point is 01:02:06 We paid, Adam, I think you're with us, right? We paid 10 bucks to get into that place with that shitty cover band. And then all we wanted to do was be anywhere else. We're like, where's Dick? Where are the other guys? Is it over there? Is it over here?
Starting point is 01:02:19 I get there and it's just like Grant and Jerry. I talk to you guys all the time. We talk to something else. Can you be someone else? It's just like Grant and Jerry You guys all the time Can you be someone else There was a select group of people that we got to talk to like you said it all just got Fractured and everyone up in different groups, but the people I got to talk to and hang out with it was fun It was out for a little bit, and then we left and I thought it was it was a Everyone got along from all these different shows, all this stuff.
Starting point is 01:02:48 I was so surprised when everyone was screaming, all the intros, I thought I'd have to introduce Rob Saul and let them know who that is. Everyone cheered at his name. And that and Harrison being there proved that you can respond to this stuff in other ways. You can actually embrace it and fill a room to roaring applause of people that mean it.
Starting point is 01:03:11 It's all really kind of up to how you process it because it's right there and available and the fans and all the podcasters feel like it's all one. Yeah, that's a great point. Adam and I were talking about that afterwards. You brought that up where it's like, this is how you embrace this sort of thing. This is what Opie and John and Patrick Michael
Starting point is 01:03:31 and the list goes on and on and on. Haven't figured out like Harrison Young came to our show and got a huge pop, like huge applause. He got a standing ovation walking up on stage. The entire rest of the night people were snapping at things Watching the crowd snap for every single thing that he did and then continue it that into future Segments that had nothing to do with Harrison was incredible. He impacted that room. It was crazy But I love that point you made Adam cuz yeah, like Rob Saul
Starting point is 01:04:02 That's kind of like a thing that's over here, and there's no way the Dick audience is following what Rob Saul's up to. And Mike, when you and I did Woke Dad, I wasn't sure what that was gonna be like, but it seemed like everyone was kinda on the same page with Woke, we ended up to give a lot of lore and backstory for that. Yeah, I didn't know because I didn't know
Starting point is 01:04:21 how much these shows crossed over, because when Dick would talk about stuff, there'd be a massive pop So I was like, okay What are the odds that any of these people have any idea who Daniel Alexander is? But it seemed like I said like people were singing along with the intro so and crazy I'm a well-amended more chanting dick a lot, but I think it's just cuz it was pride month. Yeah Incidents right, that's why you were do it. It was a coincidence. Right. I know that's
Starting point is 01:04:45 why you were doing it. Hello, Razor 69, five bucks. I was so sad to make it to Boston. I think it means not make it, but I really enjoyed the audio episode. Great job, everyone. Well, thank you very much. Yeah, the audio came out good. Oh, props to Vinny Paulino. Once again, Vinny's the reason we did things differently than we do at a lot of these live shows. And Vinny brought the video equipment and all the other things you need to do to get the audio and video synced up and make that happen. And of course, Adam Thoreau did a bunch of stuff. I got complaints on Patreon.
Starting point is 01:05:21 We didn't get the video up all that fast. It was a lot because there wasn't a shot of us with the video. The screens were all over the place. So I had to get my video editor to find the right videos and sync them up in the right places. He did a fantastic job. But props to Vinny Paulino.
Starting point is 01:05:38 HellRaisers69, I meant not make it. Yes, damn butterfingers. Now I figured it out. Timothy Magano. Oh, him me a hand. Again. This guy almost made the show, I think, because he says, you're welcome, glad the suggestion had such a huge pop.
Starting point is 01:05:51 So Timothy's the guy who said, hey, you know, Lizzo's on Trisha Paytas' show. And not only was that the main segment for WTP, I continued to clip that on the airplane back, and I made that point a point devil point when I got home on Monday I was like, you know, I was messing with Shulie because I was supposed to be back earlier and you know flights and Nonsense, so I didn't get back American Airlines go figure so I didn't get back in time So I showed up late and I don't think Shulie was ready. I was like, yeah, I pulled some clips out of play Do you got to see this? They cheers pizza. They cheers Domino's pizza with each other. So that was an amazing podcast episode.
Starting point is 01:06:28 Yeah, I was listening. I was listening to the audio on the plane on the way home. So that'd be the third time I heard you with the clips in the living room at the Airbnb, Andy and Lucy doing their homework, then the show. So it's really the fourth time. I'm still laughing my ass off. It's still funny.
Starting point is 01:06:43 One of the, that was, you know know a lot of the time on show day All of us are kind of sitting around in our Airbnb and everybody's pulling clips for everything That was probably the most that I've ever heard people laugh at any show on a show day prepping for it Carl Watching you listen to that and just hearing you explode in laughter, and then Andy would explode I would be doubled over tab. I think you were listening to it for a little while and doubling over I'm really in different rooms. You just hear pockets of people like Lucy That is one of the funniest episodes that I think we've ever covered so good Shardy McDonough's two bucks. I'm late any skin any skinny chest or yes. Thank you for bringing that up
Starting point is 01:07:23 I wanted to bring that up. I'm still alive he's scared any skinny Chad stories. Yes. Thank you for bringing that up. I wanted to bring that up I'm still alive We noticed which is amazing No one expected that he showed up. So skinny Chad is great He showed up he had the hamburger pants that he sent me but a better size They were double XL's and he wore him like a cape The whole night just like embrace it which was great because I was god. This is this is awesome I'm glad you got those pants and everyone was talking to him, so I thought he handled all of that very well He seemed to have a good time. He didn't come up to me and say he goes
Starting point is 01:07:59 You know I'm Mike. I know I listen to your segment, and I understand why you think I want to kill Carl I don't get why you think I'd want to kill you What a sweetheart I was like all right, man. I'm just like walking backwards That what you just asked me Because you said that, what you just asked me. That's why I flew in. He did, in case you're curious, because I think you are, he did come to each one of us wanting some form of closure or something and I believe he got it from most people. I don't think he did for me, but I think that's probably on me.
Starting point is 01:08:44 But it was very comforting for this community to know that Multiple people whispered in our ears like let me know if you need any help with that skinny chat And one of them was a cop like showed his badge and was like just find me if you need any help with that skinny chat I'm zooming in on the photo so I have the audience photo here We can go through around the room and see people there. He is he's got the hamburger pants on like a cape dressed very nicely, too Dressed up for the occasion which is more than you can say for me. I didn't do any of that kind of thing There's an actual black person not even making that up Wearing a shirt and tie and enjoying the show
Starting point is 01:09:21 There's a coof. I don't know if I don't know if I'm doxxing people right now Old docks and Carl But yeah, you brought up something that I kind of glossed over Lucy Which is one of the things I love about doing these live shows is all of us hanging out in the Airbnb together, prepping the show. Because typically I have nothing prepared until day of the show. And by typically I mean every time.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Yes. That's typical. So we all get together and we start handing out assignments and people start watching things and pulling clips and we collaborated on stuff. Adam and I were sitting down and kinda doing some editing when we were looking at the Rob Saul stuff. Like, is this interesting? What about this?
Starting point is 01:10:13 I don't find that kind of stuff. And I think that's what makes the live shows maybe different than our regular shows. Because the regular shows, everyone just kinda shows up and goes, I brought some clips, I brought some clips, and we just do it. Where it just. He just said just, I said the line.
Starting point is 01:10:27 I fucking said the line, god damn it. I caught myself immediately. Say the line, Bart! Anyway, I love that atmosphere that we have at the Airbnb, all kind of collaborating on it before the show and putting that all together. I think it's unique. A lot of the time, it's just kind of all of us
Starting point is 01:10:46 sitting in our own little spaces and not really interacting with each other. But again, there was so much energy this time. Everybody was having so much fun with the clips that they were doing. We were all interacting. Everybody was laughing and going, oh my God, I can't wait for you to see this.
Starting point is 01:10:57 Like, it was a great, great experience. Yeah. It was very educational to see everybody's different approach to it. And I definitely learned a lot watching how everybody does it. I assume there's one way to do it and that's the way I've been doing it
Starting point is 01:11:09 and that that's correct. And you see other people are worried about other things that make it just as good. And I found a lot of stuff that I could steal. Yeah, Adam was going to bring Quadfather getting drunk and saying gay stuff for five hours straight. That was, you're like, oh Carl, you gotta see what happened when I had Quad Show last night, this is wild.
Starting point is 01:11:31 He's just talking about gay sex and sucking dicks and sitting down on penises. It was interesting. It was. He likes what he likes. It was, and I went, yeah, but Rob Saul was talking about as small as penises, can we just do that? Yeah, and you can feel the whole room go like,
Starting point is 01:11:45 yeah, I'll go with that, that's a thing. That was an amazing segment, watching from the audience. I was just, I was so stunned at what a person will say on the internet with almost zero prompting. Yeah, and at length. No puns. His brother had the length. You get the point.
Starting point is 01:12:02 No, but his brother had the lag. But yeah, you get the point. Weird Comet has been a member for 13 months, says on vacation, not paying the devil's attention, everyone's asleep now, and I grabbed my phone, I'll watch some other time, can't handle Italian commercials. Oh, this guy just wanted to show off that he's over in Italy on vacation.
Starting point is 01:12:21 Oh, look at me, guys, I go out into Italy on vacation. I go to Boston. It's not even vacation, fuck, look at me, guys. I go to Italy on vacation. I go to Boston. It's not even vacation, fuck. You got me, actually. Sunday, fun day. We were having different ideas on what to do. I know Dick brought up running a boat and going out on either a river or an ocean or something.
Starting point is 01:12:42 So he did, we all stayed at the Airbnb. He did not. It turns out there's just way too many of us on either a river or an ocean or something. So he did, we all stayed at the Airbnb. He did not. No. It turns out there's just way too many of us to really pull anything off, and it actually worked out better that we all just kinda went out for some food
Starting point is 01:12:53 and hung out. And watched Dhar Mann. Watched a lot of Dhar Mann. We did watch Dhar Mann. Oh, interesting. I was excited to maybe go do something, and then we ate lunch, and I was like, I could really just lay still for the rest of the day.
Starting point is 01:13:05 And that's what we did. And it was awesome. It really was. It actually worked out. I think that was the best use of our time. It helped that it was impressively hot out. It was hot out? There was an NBA championship game seven going on,
Starting point is 01:13:18 so there was that. There was a lot of things going on that we could have done anywhere but Boston. But it was very much what you'd expect and hope from all of us in terms of what we love to do because we couldn't just watch Dhar Mann. It had to break off into groups of like, where's the studio located?
Starting point is 01:13:35 How do we get there? How do we get jobs there? Do they have openings? How do we infiltrate, make a documentary, become a part of this and then report back? We couldn't let it go and I'm sure it might happen. Oh, I hope so. I'm sure Adam was offended by this but I kept going,
Starting point is 01:13:47 Adam you gotta get a job working with this guy. I don't know why you're not on these things. He's like, well Carl it's not union, it would be a really big problem. I don't have the chops. Can you explain how Hollywood works to me? I appreciate your faith in me but that's, you know. I just love that Adam's explaining how Hollywood works.
Starting point is 01:14:03 Like well you know these people actually don't have real careers in acting and you don't say For obvious reasons yeah, it's just a different kind of career It's a different thing and I'm wondering how much of that is like what you hear about Shen Yun and stuff that yeah Dance company where it's like what's really happy because it feels like propaganda We just can't figure out what they're selling. Well, so Shen Yun actually is, that's the way they maintain their visas. They're anti-communists.
Starting point is 01:14:32 So it's human trafficking. Yeah, they can only remain in the United States if they continue to work, and that's why they produce the show every other week. They're also fucking crazy. It's the only company I've ever seen that reuses gaff tape. So they lay down their dance floor and they tape it down and then they roll it back up in the rolls and reuse it.
Starting point is 01:14:50 Whoa, whoa, whoa, you were gonna throw that out? That's like depression era shit. You hear about it from your grandparents would do. You don't all have tape money, Tav. And is the show itself anti-communist propaganda? Is that what the message of the dance show is? I don't really remember what they talk about. I mean, it's a beautiful dance.
Starting point is 01:15:16 And they do talk about how they can't do this in China because of the Communist Party line But like it's it's mostly just a nice little dance show that is you know $20 or something to go see and any fucking city in America every three years yeah It's like bozo the clown there's always one everywhere. Yeah Evan Brennan member for three months says I was excited to see blind Mike Well, thank you. Did you get a lot of that Mike? Did you get a lot of people going? Holy shit playing Mike is I got to sign a copy of a what's it called one too many DVD
Starting point is 01:16:02 What's it called? One too many DVD? Yeah! Probably say Periscope. I was going to say that before because you asked like any similarities to like other live shows I've done and much like the Minifans you hear certain things about like a lot of these people online that have a certain reputation
Starting point is 01:16:18 and then in person like couldn't be lovelier for the most part, you know? I'll never forget our first time in Chicago We had no idea no idea because we're show that clowns everyone and we're jerks And we're we have a lot of fun being jerks to people we hadn't done video yet, and we were on a video show yet We didn't really know what the interaction would be we're not reading super chats back that I mean the show's gotten way better now And so we didn't know what the audience
Starting point is 01:16:42 I mean the show's gotten way better now. And so we didn't know what the audience interaction was going to be like. And everyone was so lovely and so nice. Oh, okay cool. I didn't know what kind of vibe I was putting out there. It's worked out well. Justin kept saying this to me after the show. He was listening to people interact with me and talk about Stuttering John and stuff like that. And Justin was like, because Justin's mildly interested in that stuff.
Starting point is 01:17:04 And he goes, you know what Stuttering John and stuff like that and Justin was like cause Justin's like mildly interested in that stuff And he goes you know what Stuttering John doesn't get if he showed up there Massive probably biggest pop of his life. Well, that's what we were talking about with Harrison Young I mean it would they'd be chanting his name still they'd still be in that place I was in the audience when it happened there was a brief in part of Cardiff's intro or something, a real brief clip of John. And I gotta tell you, the look of love that fell across everyone, it was just like tear, almost like, ah, like there he is.
Starting point is 01:17:34 He would have felt that in person, the way I truly believe this was the first time Harrison Young has felt physical contact in years. And I think it would be similar for John. I wish. Yeah. And some of it, not just from Lucy, like everybody. Even though he's in that baseball league, you don't think he has a lot of physical contact with other people? It's a very small league.
Starting point is 01:17:57 I don't know if they're taking any new members right now. He did ask me to come watch him play baseball tomorrow. I need to ask because obviously he turned over his phone and asked you to hold it up to a camera that they didn't exist What was on that phone if you watch the video? Adam Therone knew exactly what he was talking about because he posted it on social media So we did splice in the photo that he was talking about if you watch on YouTube. That's great It is Andy and I tell you if you watched on YouTube. It is Andy, and I tell you, if you're ever on apartments.com or homes.com
Starting point is 01:18:29 or something like that, and it's just like images of empty rooms, that's all it is. It's just an empty room, it's depressing. He was so excited to show everyone too. He's like, this is my living room. You're like, oh, okay, oh Jesus. When he was talking about the number of championships So excited to show everyone to it's like this is my living room like When he was talking about the number of championships he's won it's like when you hear there's been like 47 seasons of the Bachelor you Like that doesn't yeah When he said that that he's won like a hundred forty eight
Starting point is 01:18:59 Championships over 20 years. It's like that's only like seven a year right Tough game apparently it's like, well, that's only like seven a year. Right. It's a tough game, apparently. It's not a high number. And he plays these six game series, and Lucy did a great job of asking the important questions about how it all works, and I still don't understand it at all. Apparently, you can get a grand slam without anyone on base, so it's all very confusing to me.
Starting point is 01:19:24 You know, when you make up the rules, you can do whatever you want seem kind of arbitrary but you would think you would win more when you when you made up yeah am i high on glue or with their cats involved at one point there used to be cat okay thank you in the baseball huh I feel like the cats were they got sick of it I feel like there was a cat that was like a base Cats suck at baseball well, we don't know how he's doing it Okay Steve says boss was a great show
Starting point is 01:19:56 I didn't talk to any of you because I was as high as a Georgia pine, but it was a blast nice Well, Thank you Steve I appreciate that pony power to coming in pony power for the amazing show. I can't wait for the next one I also can almost guarantee that skinny Chad did not kill anyone Okay, that is true. Well We're not Michael and Patrick Michael voice coming in yeah pony power to that was great to see him It's great to see Lockie. I know Power to that was great to see him. It's great to see locky. I know Locky does such amazing. He came out Friday night He was out of the show and he has done so much for the dabble verse and the creep off and everyone shows
Starting point is 01:20:32 Which one of you guys has the artwork? Andy does okay? Yeah, we made us a couple of he made some very nice artwork for us that I have not seen in person yet I don't think anybody's seen in person unless Andy cracked into it. And I am very excited. Me too. It's awesome. And when everything was wrapping up at the end of the night, we were trying to maybe catch up with Dick down at the bar that he ended up at where we thought he was when we got there. Nobody was there But on the way there Lockie was taking us on a detour to show us more of art that he had done on a hotel wall
Starting point is 01:21:14 Like showcase his Walking tour modern-day Michelangelo. Yeah, he's great Pretty incredible stuff that he does Michelangelo. Yeah, he's great. Pretty incredible stuff that he does. Well, I'm going to duck out, but I just want to say that this is a wonderful weekend with all of you and I was so excited to get to meet everybody. Thank you for having me.
Starting point is 01:21:33 And I'll see you guys all soon in Detroit. Well, you see, you rule. Thank you very much for all you guys rule. You guys rule. Thank you, everybody, for not getting killed by skinny Ted Zumach or anybody else. Yeah. All right, bye. It's the least I could do. So, no problem at all.
Starting point is 01:21:50 So, flying back on Monday, that was when I flew back, on Monday, Boston did this weird thing, I still don't know why, there's this tunnel that takes you to the airport. You go under this tunnel, it's like an expressway, and then you get to the airport. They closed it This closed the top. Oh, yeah. Yeah, we do that sometimes What do you know about this Mike? What was going on just to fuck around?
Starting point is 01:22:18 Sjr me I get it we get an uber Jen and I get in an uber were the last ones to leave I hope we're the last ones to leave because someone left things there that I had to grab I hope I didn't steal someone's stuff. No, he didn't all right Jenna the last to leave the Airbnb and we get in an uber and you know Like I'm one of these people who's kind of impatient and I'm looking at my phone. It's like you don't say you'll get there at 1127 Cool, and then it's 1134 and then it's 1140 and then. Cool. And then it's 11.34, and then it's 11.40, and then it's noon, and then it's 2.30. Anyway, the point is, they rerouted us off the expressway,
Starting point is 01:22:51 the direct route to the airport, and put us right in the exact middle of Boston, the hardest place to navigate in the world. And we were just in, because they were doing that to everyone. So the amount of traffic was so frustrating. I felt bad for Uber drivers, I don't think they charge more.
Starting point is 01:23:08 Right? I should probably tip them actually, not think about it. Oh God. Jesus Christ, Carl. But anyway, so we get to the airport, and everyone had gone through this thing, because everyone can't get to the airport.
Starting point is 01:23:22 So we're just trying to drop off our bags at American there's only one person working there for some reason and a line that goes on forever and everyone's kind of going They're boarding my plane right now. I got it cut in front of you. It was like no fuck you They're boarding my plane you're not cut in front of me So it's just like everyone was pissed and the woman who was like grabbing the bags was having the worst day Yeah, she's just like there's like idiots there. She had to run and like use the kiosk for them. Oh, they were done. Whole line of people going on.
Starting point is 01:23:49 That's funny because I was like two hours behind you heading to the airport and they must have opened it back up because it was a quick, it was like 15 minutes. I'm glad you got stuck in DC then. It took two Ubers to do it because the first one pulls up and I get in the car and the guy's like, you're going to to the airport and my gays like I don't go to the airport. What? I'm canceling this you gotta get out and I was like what?
Starting point is 01:24:10 That's against their terms of service. So then I get out of the car and call a second Uber and I was like well hopefully this one works out. That's really weird. So I tipped the second guy very well because the first guy was an asshole and there's no way to rate him and they Cancel your ride. Oh, I bet our driver wishes he had the same policy cuz oh Take us to the airport saw We went around the block then we went down around the same block but a little farther than around again We were just doing like loop-de-loop
Starting point is 01:24:41 We were I was I'm watching on the app which I probably shouldn't do and I'm just watching us drive away from the airport for most of the time It's like when you're waiting for your food from Grubhub. Yeah Never watch that thing. Where are they going? Yeah? Anyhow we made it Just great when I was arriving in Boston on Thursday. It was the hottest day of the week It was pushing a day of the week. It was pushing 100 with the heat index. There was a tour bus broken down on the side of the road with another tour bus there showing up to to help people, you know, escape that and I was like, what if I was on that and it was just like no air conditioning sitting there
Starting point is 01:25:22 Just dying in a hundred degree heat. So Could have been worse Well there you go. Yeah look at these schmucks. What am I complaining about good points? all right, I'm going to go around the horn and any other highlights or anything that you guys remember from Boston and and I Don't know events or shoutouts or people you were excited to see, Jenny Jingles? I already said what I was very excited about, but the other thing that I did know-
Starting point is 01:25:52 Boy and Mike, we get it, all right. I'm a big fan. Yeah, yeah. Also, the crowd was so amazing. Like, nobody was really unruly. Nobody seemed to be too out of control, just out of control enough. it was a lot of fun. It was a really great crowd.
Starting point is 01:26:08 I agree. PC, anything else? No, I think we covered it all, man. Did I say Darman? Yes, you did. We introduced Dick to Darman, he had never heard of it before, so that was fun. I had never heard of it.
Starting point is 01:26:23 Oh, okay, yeah, yeah. Yeah. He's amazing. It was entertaining for the first six or seven, and then it was like, it became, it started to become viscerally irritating, and I had to walk away for a bit. If you like the movie, The Room, I highly recommend you check out Darman,
Starting point is 01:26:38 D-H-A-R-M-A-N-N on YouTube. He doesn't need our money, but you will enjoy it. He's doing very well. Something happens around episode 40, 45, if you just keep watching. It's tough to get there, but when you do, it's kind of like enlightenment. You'll get it. You'll get it. Andy, what do you think? I love Boston. I will always want an opportunity to go back.
Starting point is 01:27:01 And I had a lot of fun. I just like walking around and seeing the history on like right on the walls. It's a really cool city and the beer culture was great. I got some Trillium beer and did Mrs. Andy have a good time? Oh, yeah. She glad she went. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:17 Yep. Great time. Good. Good. Good. Blind Mike any takeaways? Any other? I mean, we've talked about a lot, but I was I was glad you guys scheduled one 25 minutes from my house
Starting point is 01:27:26 Because otherwise Instinctively I would have avoided doing it if I could so it's kind of forced me to do it And I'm glad I did because it was very cool. Yeah, it's great and Tab let's talk about your situation you came out at the last minute You were not gonna be a part of this and then you kind of lost everything in the last week or two. Yeah. And so fucking up going to Boston. I got into a Twitter argument
Starting point is 01:27:49 at the beginning of the month with a huge retard, I guess, that totally spurred out and went and screenshot a bunch of my old tweets and reported me to the Glass Studio I work at here in St. Louis and my employer. And so during the last time I was on WTP a couple weeks ago, I got banned from the glass studio. And then Thursday, which is your biggest passion in life at this point. Yeah. Thursday before flying out to Boston on
Starting point is 01:28:16 Friday morning, I was fired from my full time job for these mean tweets. So I saw the letter that tab got it was just like this I mean they work that you do over there and then for them to just like write a very informal like we are ready to inform you that your values and blah blah blah blah do not align with bb ding and whatever and so it was all crumbled up when he sent us yeah I did I did reacted to it well. I did throw it away and then figured that, so I am gonna pursue some legal rectification
Starting point is 01:28:52 of this situation and as that gets going, I'll keep the WTP listeners and the Dick Show listeners in the loop as far as what's going on with that and any support that I may need So hopefully hopefully this all gets Well, you said it on the live show and I forgot about this that you on musk had put out a thing where he's like If anyone gets fired for anything they put on Twitter acts or whatever. Yeah, then I'll support their legal fund. Yep So yeah, and so you're a perfect example of that. We do need to get his attention
Starting point is 01:29:28 But yeah, the show was great. I I love hanging out in the Airbnb with the the people on the show It's one of my favorite things and that's how Carl and I met on a dick show. Yeah, what five years ago now Yeah, and just I heard the the After the show Carl and I were sitting out on the balcony up there just drinking and talking about what a great time it was, and that's always been one of my favorite parts. And then also huge. Dick came back at like 3 AM, and we're just up there drinking,
Starting point is 01:29:54 and Dick just comes out. And we're just like after this big show in Tampa that we did, it was like, oh, this is the nicest little wind down. And yeah, I remember that night very well and that's why I run the shows the way I do is because of dick yeah the don't get that on contacts a huge a huge thank you to the fans who make this these kind of things possible because if you weren't listening to these shows if you weren't
Starting point is 01:30:17 supporting these creators you know we wouldn't get this opportunity to spend time together to meet you in person yeah and, you know, that is also it's so fun meeting these people that have the online pseudonyms and it's like, Hey, I'm Mr. Magenta. Like I'm Mr. 138. I'm, you know, this guy and I'm Ted Bertha Cuck. Yeah. I hate that. You get to put a face with like this name of a random shit poster.
Starting point is 01:30:43 And it is also funny. They are all incredibly nice like for as hard and heavy we go on the internet against you know one another calling each other fat and losers and retarded and making fun of other people. There was there's been a bunch of stuff on social media recently about how like the people that shit post on Twitter are actually happier in their entire lives than people who don't and I think that it's a great example of seeing that when you meet these fans and like they're all pretty well adjusted normal guys that just like to have a laugh and sometimes you laugh at someone's expense and Sometimes you get made fun of and you just kind of oh
Starting point is 01:31:19 Yep, I guess I am a fat loser and and there are loser shit posters They just can't afford to go to these events so it works out well. We kind of get the right ones Yeah, to show up for this stuff It really is um like you hear about wanting to see Mad Magazine behind the scenes And then you go I've been to DC Comics, and it's just like a corporate office It sucks, but you go to the Howard Stern show in the 90s on K rock You know wow it really is just like you hope. It's something about when people have similar taste
Starting point is 01:31:50 and they all get together, it really just, even from the Dick show, everyone got along so well, and it really was like, for me as someone who was a fan, what you would hope it would be. Like everyone doesn't disappoint, and everybody's contributing, everyone has the same taste, and just all the dick people and all of us all kind of sharing the same beliefs,
Starting point is 01:32:11 even though it's just about this stuff, you know? Like Johnny the audio engineer, and all of these guys sharing this same, it doesn't disappoint. It's what you hope it would be when you're out there listening. Like there's a group chat you have with Vince DeLorean and all those people, and as a fan I used to be like, man I wish I was on that group chat, but now I don't, because that's scary.
Starting point is 01:32:32 But this is the real way to go. Everyone is very sincere. I appreciate you saying that, Adam. I'll never forget when maybe our first show in Detroit, maybe our second one, and Drew had to come over and bring us posters or whatever he was dropping off to us and he comes To our Airbnb and we're all just hanging out. It's like the day of the show. We're all just hanging out and I'm like, oh drew What's that? We're sitting and talking. He's just like I couldn't believe how relaxed everybody was like we have a show tonight Then everyone's prepping for it and no one this is our fun. This is what we do for fun So no one's like they're like, oh, we got a whole all right, dude drew. I don't time for you right now We got a joy
Starting point is 01:33:05 It's like oh, did he talk to Vinny? All right, so maybe it's not a hundred percent Like that Matthew Raleigh five bucks I just want to make sure everyone is aware that Carl has gone to the wrong airport twice in the last five years Okay carry on No once but then you left your computer on a plane well, I've done a lot of bad I've done a lot of dumb things. I'm kind of an idiot and the other one my fault. Oh That's right. Oh, yeah
Starting point is 01:33:31 Go to the wrong airport twice the other one was cuz Andy put in the uber rong The right live show guys. Thank you all for not killing yourselves Thank you very much Coup the stickers he made were amazing And thank you guys for all being here. Matthew Rowley, Skinny Chad is the most well-adjusted. OG Bumble Nick says, I'm glad you guys like Boston so much. It's a great city. I really wish I could have made it to the show.
Starting point is 01:33:54 Hopefully you'll come back again next year. We'll come back to Boston again. That was a phenomenal experience. Last thing I wanted to mention is that a lot of people know about this. I'll just say it. It turns out my father passed away on Saturday and my mom, who did an amazing thing, she decided not to tell me or my brother until Sunday. Which worked out really, really well because he passed away Saturday morning and we didn't know that.
Starting point is 01:34:18 So it made it very easy for my brother and I to do the show and enjoy it and do our thing. And so anyway, I know people have been following that. It was a good time for me. We had an amazing Father's Day. The great grandkids were over. It was a lot of closure, a lot of good things. So just let everyone know that that is the deal. And I will not be on WATS because we do have some services and things going on.
Starting point is 01:34:43 But Mike, you're gonna do do WTS this week, right? Yeah, the real funeral I have to be with Casey day Craig's gonna be on actually WTS before so no he has this is very exciting so yeah beyond tomorrow at usual time very good Well guys thanks so much for for being part of the live show. Thanks for coming on here to talk about it There's a fun little recap. I don't know these are necessary or not, but I enjoy them Everyone tell me this is okay Exactly right, that's exactly right. That's the spirit.
