Jimmy Failed Pett takes Manhattan.
It is Wilcane Country, streaming live at the Wilcane Country YouTube channel and the
Wilcane Facebook page, streaming live on a Wednesday from New York City.
here in the New York City studios. I've got Jimmy Fela hanging out with me. What's up, Jimmy?
How about it? So Jimmy's sitting here going, oh, I didn't know we were going to do that,
because this is first reactions, second take. We just had an audio issue, and I have to redo this.
Now, my only thing is I have to be completely honest with the audience. And the fact that we had
technical issues is part of the story. That's how it works. I, Jimmy, Dan, and you are meeting
for the first time in three years.
Three years of working together, talking together on the phone every day, tinfoil pat.
Welcome to New York, Patrick.
Howdy you?
That he is.
How was your flight in, Patrick?
It was rough.
If you would follow my ex account, I am blogging about it.
And I also am recording a vlog as we go.
You are?
I have a little, I have multiple videos in the can, but I did share a preview this morning from the
Christmas tree. Wow. And you posted that
somewhere? Yeah, it's on the on the X account.
Wow. Dan, I figured
you have to be up all night working 12-hour shifts
to edit that thing. I was up until one making
putting this plane together, but you know, whatever.
He texted last night that his trip in was
a one out of ten. Do not recommend.
Patrick does not travel. Does
not leave his home. Does not drive over
bridges. Does not make eye contact.
He basically is a
recluse in Jacksonville. Like you
say recluse and you think the wilds
of Montana like Ted Kaczynski. But no.
We've got a recluse in America's pawn shop, Jacksonville.
And I love Jacksonville, I do.
Great place.
But Jimmy, everyone listening, this is the wildest experience for me.
And this is why I said I'm going to only had technical issues
because I just talked about this once.
But here's the deal.
It is wild to talk to someone every day for three years
and then meet them in person.
Like 15 minutes ago, there he is.
I feel like I'm in a low-rent version of Sleepless in Seattle, where they corresponded forever and then they finally met at the top of the Empire State Building.
Can you imagine dating like that?
So Patrick walks up.
Okay.
He is tall.
He's not six-foot-seven.
He's not six-seven.
Stop.
He is six-foot-one.
Is that about right, Patrick?
Give or take, yeah.
That's what he said, to be fair.
Okay.
He did say that?
Yeah.
And what are we doing, Patrick?
You have a massive buckethead.
Buck 80?
Buck-90?
What?
What do we weigh?
Like 2.65?
What'd you say?
265?
No.
What did he say?
265.
You're rocking a 265.
No.
You are definitely bigger than I had.
So first of all, Jimmy had to put on his cans
because he couldn't hear on this.
I wanted an accurate number on that.
So, okay, first reactions.
I didn't do it.
You made more sense to me when in my head, Patrick,
you were 5'9.
like you made more sense to me
I'm having trouble now
like bringing you together
like you're not cohesive
to me yet
you know your opinions
your interactions
it doesn't fit
the body yet
and I'm just trying to do that right now
but Jimmy by the way
what do you mind
I rock a legitimate probably like
230 about 6-1
230 which in TV is like
550
Okay, Patrick, get up real quick.
Walk in here.
I don't you stand next to Jimmy.
I would not, I don't think I'd say 30 pounds heavier than Jimmy.
Yeah, that's a legit number, but let's get a look here, Patrick.
You find a thing.
Jimmy, you're going to have to stand up.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
You're going to take off your cans.
This is going to be great for the Spotify and Apple audience in radio.
I probably have a height advantage, I think, is part of it.
You know what they say, Jimmy.
Muscle weighs more than fat.
There it is.
now you look great
265
that's the thing
you're a big man
like your six foot
go back to your microphone
your
you're 6 foot 1
265 I'm telling you
you were a small person
in my head
and that is really
really hard for me to reconcile
and you know
the eyes thing
you don't like to make eye contact
I'm looking at you
I know you looked at me
but I could tell it was difficult
It was not easy.
You got to dominate.
You got to show people who's boss.
That's what he said.
He's been walking the 15th floor dominating.
I don't doubt that, but he doesn't like to meet people.
Can I give you some backstory?
He came to a stand-up show in Jacksonville.
After talking to me about that show for two years.
When the show was over, there was a big meet and greet.
I could have obviously gotten him in.
And he messaged me, hey, you know, great show.
I've got to drop my wife off.
I'll be back.
No one is leaving a theater.
and coming back
and you know that.
Did you come back?
I was on my way back, yes.
What did you mean you were on you?
What happened?
He had to go.
I did have to go eventually.
You were literally,
you didn't Irish goodbye this thing,
fake goodbye.
Is that an Irish goodbye?
Irish goodbye is when you say nothing,
you disappear.
Yeah, you just disappear.
This is just a lie.
This was just a babysitting issue.
That was all.
Oh, okay.
I'll chalk it up to that.
He has 12 kids.
Is that true?
I have seven children, yes.
That is, I had no,
that is,
I didn't realize.
It's good.
Tall, big, fertile.
It's good to be here on the Nick Cannon show.
Nick in for Will today.
Same woman.
Same woman.
Same woman.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's a number, though.
That is, you are ahead of Pete Hegseth behind Rachel Campos Duffy.
Also Catholic.
But at double digits, you could be on hoarders.
Like, that's a lot of, that goes beyond a family at some point.
Do you love them all equally?
Yes.
I think so.
But you have a favorite or two.
No, I don't really.
That's impossible.
No.
With seven?
Yeah, they're all great.
Do they listen?
Sometimes.
Yeah, that's what I said.
They're listening today.
Daddy's in New York.
Yeah, my youngest boy is having some trouble, you know, with me gone.
Yeah?
Yeah.
All right, first impressions, New York City.
It's about what I thought it was.
A lot of trash, a lot of pigeons, a lot of lights.
a lot of
people
you like it better than you thought
or worse than you thought
it's about what I thought
I don't know
it's about
you're staying at the hard rock
that's nice
I'm laughing
hard rock's a great
fine hotel good
but it's just not
I think it's not you
Patrick
yeah no I'm very
musically inclined
but I have all this arthritis
I'd be
they actually sing guitars
to your room
if you want them
really yeah
they lean in there.
You can ask for a guitar.
They'll bring one to the room.
I didn't know that.
Yeah, they've got a good like Euro trash rock and roll quotient over there.
That's a lot who's in there.
And, you know, good amount of domestic tourism.
But it's true when I think of Patrick, I think I would put you somewhere else, though,
as much as you are musically inclined.
You're like a Marriotté guy, a little more prestigious, a little more stately, I think.
I'm thinking, like, if Patrick were a city, what city would he be?
Now, you just met him.
Well, you've interacted.
Yeah.
And I just met him.
I love this.
I actually think you are very well suited to Jacksonville.
Yeah.
You've got some Florida man to you.
He's wearing hey dudes.
He's wearing hey dudes.
Yeah.
But you're not like cut off shirt, Florida man.
No.
He's got sleeves.
You're not tats.
You don't have tats, right?
I don't have tats.
You're not tats, Florida man.
No, I don't do meth.
no no no bath salts um but afraid of the fentanyl what's going on with you in the cans is you don't want to mess up the hair yeah i got a hit after this
I don't have my ah.
Yeah, that's my bad.
I didn't bring you.
I usually have...
I'm like, is he not interested in what Patrick and Dan have to say?
No, I love being Patrick, go back.
And then I realized he's putting one on, but it keeps sliding down.
It's because his gelled hair, he doesn't want the thing on top.
I'm not trying to implicate myself when the feds crash your studio and apprehend Patrick.
Okay.
I like, I'm 50-50 on this.
I love him.
I met him.
You're obviously my favorite.
But I'm watching this conversation progress and I'm waiting for the battery ram to take down that door.
Well, I mean, I do think, I mean, serious.
Like, of the four of us, I'll include you, Jimmy.
Like, the most likely among us to have deep dark secrets is Patrick.
Oh, yeah.
And the deep dark secrets may or may not be criminal.
I don't know.
No.
I would never go so far.
But I would say, you've got secrets.
I mean, people have shot into my house before, so.
That's fascinating.
What do you mean?
It was on my birthday about, what, 11 years ago?
They're after you.
Somebody just randomly shot to my house.
Bobby did a prank on you?
Yeah, it was the worst prank in the world.
I'm going to get my right cans.
They're going to send him over. You keep talking.
Sorry, Jim, that's my fault.
Well, this is wild, man.
This is wild.
Seeing you in person and seeing me and Dan in person.
Me is probably different because you've seen me on TV enough, right?
No, it's weird because it's like it's you in 3D.
Right.
Yeah.
It's weird hearing his voice next to me.
That's the weirdest thing.
So you think I'm different than what you see on TV or whatever in some way?
It's just like you pop, it's like you're on the two-dimensional screen, and then now it's like, you know, you pop off in real life.
It's different.
Yeah.
You're a real person now.
Yeah.
What about Dan?
First impressions of Dan, Patrick.
Yeah.
It's just like what I thought.
Dan's big.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We got a big team.
Yeah.
I'm the smallest for sure.
Yeah.
Dan, what are you weighing in at?
Probably about 250.
250.
Yeah.
For Dan.
60.
Jimmy, have you lost weight since I've known you?
it's like it vacillates up or down like five or ten pounds is the thing if you meet me between a
monday and a friday i comport myself like i'm employed in television once i tape my tv show it becomes a
48 hour omish rum springa where i can eat it drink it smoke it it doesn't matter i just have to
find jesus by america's newsroom monday morning that's how it works it's straight up that is
sunday morning should help straight up how it works so you're seeing me okay on a wednesday i'm headed in the right
direction. Whatever that means, this is the right direction for me. Yeah. But were you to see me
Sunday? I look like a stunt double in the Chris Farley biopic. Yeah. If not the lead himself.
You're looking good. That's why I feel. Oh, come on, Will Kay. Kay, you're buttering me up.
Am I close to, do I, am I close to the Gavin Newsom's leg cross? Yes. Am I close? This isn't.
You've got to turn to your bottom foot. Yeah. This is it right here. That's the Gavin Newsome
leg cross.
It's comfortable, right?
All right, Patrick.
Good to see you in person.
Good to meet you in person.
We'll see if you're employed on Monday.
All right, man.
Good to see.
Let's get into it with Jimmy Phelah.
When we come up,
coming back on Wilcane Country.
This is Ainsley Earhart.
Thank you for joining me
for the 52 episode podcast series,
The Life of Jesus.
A listening experience that will provide hope,
comfort, and understanding of the greatest story ever told.

Playing half a football season, drunk.
That's the story from one player in the NFL.
And the DC pipe bomber was into My Little Pony.
It is Wilcane Country streaming live at the Wilcane Country YouTube channel.
The Wilcane Country Facebook page,
but always available here at Spotify or an Apple.
Now we are joined by the infamous, the legendary,
Fala. Bang! What a good get by you guys. It is. Only available to us because we are, well,
quite honestly, taping a little earlier today. And that's fine. It's a win for the American people
anyway, you slice it. They're not concerned about time zones. The point is we got the band
back together. Let's sing some hits. Let's go. I love this story, or I'm actually blown away
by the story. Quentin Jammer, by the way, Texas Longhorn, many, many years in the NFL,
played for the San Diego Chargers. I don't know that he ever played for the Los Angeles Chargers.
but definitely for the San Diego Chargers.
Cornerback.
First round draft pick.
Came out in the last couple of days on X
and said, I once played,
I think he said 11 games drunk.
He didn't say buzzed.
He said, drunk.
Yes.
People started, by the way,
Jimmy sent him clips like,
were you drunk in this game?
You're drunk in that game?
And how did you play?
And he said, I played really good
in all but one of the games.
Really?
That's what he said.
So he found a sauce.
He found his process.
Now, let me tell you the difference
between being a Texas fan
and a New York sports fan.
11 games blows you away, okay, but I grew up as a Yankee fan, Mickey Mano was playing 162.
I would argue the greatest hitter of all time because he was facing two pitchers at once.
Okay, not easy to hit a home run when you're seeing a double pitcher out there on the mound.
But I'm still fascinated by this, and I think what it really speaks to is just how elite and how genetically gifted professional athletes are,
that they can perform at that level, despite what should be some type of a detriment to the
their performance. Well, but they're going up against guys who are also that elite. Yeah.
So, like, okay, Quentin Jammer drunk covers me. No problem. But Quentin Jammer covering, I mean,
who were your top receiver? Andre Johnson in the same time frame. Houston, Texan's great
wide receiver, right? Drunk? Come on. Big problem. You would think. But you would think. But I don't
doubt half of the league's probably smoking weed, too. I'm not saying Andre Johnson was. Okay. I definitely
think guys in the NBA smoke weed before games.
A ton of weed. Yeah, yeah. And if you
and I were sitting here going, I looked under
Jammer's Post, by the way, and the first
comment was a guy, just a guy, so who
knows if it's real, he said, I once
played a game after
doing LSD. He was the best game I ever
played in my life. But
if I were ranking
substances to do before an elite
athletic performance, like football, okay,
darts different, okay?
Not on the same,
something that requires, cardio,
stamina, coordination, drunk would be among the worst I think you could possibly do to yourself.
We would be really high up there. I'm not sure it would be worse than drunk.
From my money, this is why I agree with you. I don't drink when I do stand-up because it slows my
brain down. Yeah. And I feel like I'm more reflexive in real time without it. So what I wonder,
though, is, you know when you go to a party and there are those people that are elite dancers,
okay and they're probably drinking all night but they their process allows them a level of
self-application we don't understand when it comes to physical feats and I don't doubt he has to be
one of those guys because do you know have you ever been at a party where someone can act is like
they are Michael Jackson like they dance so much like Michael Jackson people are keeping their
kids away from them okay have you ever been at one of those this guy's a little too good on the
moonwalk I'm going to need the kids to get back in the minivan but the point is that guy who usually
decides I'm going to commandeer this wedding for the next 15 minutes is usually the drunkest
guy there.
So maybe there's something to be said for certain people's coordination.
I don't have it.
I'm telling you up front, I don't have it.
But maybe he does.
Well, do you have this.
So I do think there's something to this as well.
Obviously, substances affect people differently.
Anything that people take.
And I think alcohol is one of the most obvious.
I am one of these people.
Alcohol makes me tired.
alcohol doesn't really give me energy
but there are other people that I see
they drink and their energy level goes up
now these happen to be a lot of the same people
that don't seem to get hangovers
yeah that's a weird thing
and they're I don't know if they're endorphins fire
and keep firing the entire time they're drinking
but mine I feel like I go through a short
a short you know two drinks three drinks up
and then it starts to go down for me
and maybe Quint Jammers is one of these guys
is it for whatever reason gets energy when he drinks.
There are those guys, don't you think?
Yes, and that's what I was going to say.
I think something about this that we need to know is what is he drinking?
Because you're not doing this on beer.
Beer bloats you, gets you heavy, tires you out, dehydrates you.
Yes.
But if he's drinking sugary, fun stuff, he might get an up.
Because remember Maurice Claret, we won a national title of Ohio State.
Yeah, sure.
Then kind of bombed out of the league in a hurry.
But one of the famous quotes about him that year in summer camp in the NFL was he was going to the car between two a days going,
got to get my goose on. He was drinking gray goose. But if he's drinking goose and something
sugary, maybe you do get a little pep out of that. That's incredible. In a way, I, not me,
not you, but maybe that's crazy. It's just mind-blowing that a guy could play defensive back
in the NFL, self-described drunk. The Mickey Mantle thing, this sounds like I'm being
dismissive of baseball, and I'm not, but it's, it is not football. Yeah, you're not running,
you're not hitting, you're not saying it's darts. Agreed. But it requires coordination. That's
for sure. But I could see you go into the plate. Like you point out, if you're seeing double
how, how you're hitting the ball? You're facing two pitchers at once. I mean, how does that affect
the batting average? So listen, again, I think he was just a superior person in his prime.
You know, people are born into different levels of genetic prosperity. It's like Hollywood actors.
Whenever you're around, Melania Trump's a good example. We've all met Melania Trump. When you see
Melani at Trump in person, it's like the first time you see a thoroughbred horse. I'm not calling
her a horse, but the first time you see a thoroughbred horse, you go, oh, this is a different breed
of horse than I've grown up seeing at kids' birthday parties and police parades. And sometimes
a supermodel, a Hollywood A-list actor or an NFL athlete has a genetic distinction from the rest of us.
They're just endowed that much better. And that might be what it is. I had a buddy who worked for
the NBA and NBC.
They didn't make he sad to think about really quickly how good manel could have been then.
Oh, it was insane.
Like, if you're talking about he's so elite that he could even do this and remain elite,
how elite would he been without this?
And I think that was like his great torment later in life, just the same as he wanted to be that.
But really quick, my buddy was a statistician for the NBA and NBC, the original version,
Ahmad Rashad, Bob Costas.
And he said when they were doing that Sunday afternoon game,
staying in the same hotel as the teams, guys would be either getting home or getting people out of their room
at 9 a.m. And morning shootarounds became a thing as a means of getting athletes out of strip clubs
or getting strip clubs, strippers out of hotels, and giving them somewhere to be at 9 a.m.
And they were still able to perform at a high level. So I don't doubt that he's telling the truth about
that. You don't drink during the stand-up? I really don't. I bring one drink on stage, right?
I'll do an hour of stand-up. At the one-hour mark, I'll downshift and do like a 15-minute Q&A.
Ask me anything you want about Fox. I don't answer the questions. I just make fun of them. Okay.
And at that point, I will sip whiskey and buy them time while they're answering me questions.
Answer them all.
And then I'll put the whiskey back on the stool and close with whatever you think your best five minutes are at the moment and get out of there.
We'll be right back on Will Kane Country.
Do you think most comedians are doing it?
What do you think, percentage-wise, comedians on stage on something?
Drinking or drugs?
Low.
The super successful ones, low.
Okay, if you're like a club comic who's murdering.
Like, I can give you an example, in the city, it's about 30 guys that were you to see them tonight,
you'd, one by one, assume that was the best comedian you've ever seen.
But they've never made it beyond the city because they didn't find that higher, that larger vehicle.
And one of the reasons why is there's a lifestyle that comes to doing stand-up.
You are drinking free if you want to.
You know, you are taking home wayward cocktail waitresses and tourists if you want to.
But if you actually want to treat this like a job, it's something I heard Seinfeld say one day,
is he's like, you know, I woke up in my apartment
and I watched these construction workers going to work at
five in the morning, and I realized they didn't want to, but they had
to. And that's when I realized they had to write
every day. I had to treat comedy
like it was a construction job. Yeah.
So the people that are wildly successful really
aren't. It's not the 80s. That's what I say
do you think has changed over time? Big time.
So in 80s, everybody was high?
It's just cocaine. It was just a, you know,
a walking scarface audition. You know,
everybody. And that was, you know, the old adage
in showbiz, is that you thought
you'd get into these green rooms. Like, when I was a little kid,
I pictured green rooms as like, you know, ancient Rome, just cocaine and camcorders.
And now you get there now and people are swapping smoothie recipes and like, do you do
Pilates or do you hike? It's kind of depressing, actually.
You know, I mean, people used to do what we do now, drinking.
I mean, Howard CoSell. Didn't Howard CoSell drink?
On the air.
The entire time he did Monday Night Football.
Yeah, yeah.
Right?
And I think I've read an article about how many drinks they would bring him during the course
of a game.
And it was a lot.
And for that matter, have you ever seen what Winston Churchill drank throughout the day?
So world leaders were talking about, leading people in war.
Churchill's Scotch, and he drank all kinds of things.
He wasn't consistent.
No.
Well, he was consistent daily.
But throughout the day, he had various things he was drinking.
But alcohol started at breakfast, I think.
Yeah, big brandy guys, sweet stuff.
But I will say this, Jimmy, in my time doing this, which I started in 2010, I have never seen someone, certainly go on air drive.
drunk. I have never seen someone have a drink on set before set. You know, when the
multitude of attacks came after Hegg Seth, that was one, first of all, height of absurdity.
We did a morning show. Yeah, we all worked with it. Six a.m. You're up at four or five.
No one is starting the day. Nope. Um, so I've never seen that, but that was a thing. I think if you
go back, I would not be surprised to hear, and I don't know if he did or didn't, but
cronkite you know if i heard that he did it wouldn't surprise me yeah because newsroom etiquette was different
back then too they were smoking indoors sleeves were rolled up i mean in old like hard news you know
they were punching each other on the face of deadline like it was very contentious this is a little bit more
like what we're doing now is i feel like it's restrictor plate racing you know the car doesn't hit
220 anymore because bill imagine how this show would yeah bill elliot had to spit around in the air a few
times the Talladega and ruin it for the rest of us. But I think we're doing a more modified
version of news in that self-care is a bigger function now than it was back then. I think honestly,
the thing that changed the world the most profoundly was Instagram, because once society turned
into a 24-hour visual medium, people got a lot more conscious about their looks, which forces
them to get a little more aware of self-care. And I think that's a really interesting, positive
you're suggesting. We talk about the pressure and the height of vanity.
and projection and all that.
And by the way, there's a story out today that Australia has banned social media for kids,
I believe under the age of 16?
Yeah.
Is it 16?
Mm-hmm.
So no TikTok, no Instagram, no X, no Facebook, no nothing, no kick.
Nothing.
And it has to have age verification when you go on.
And apparently it's pretty sudden.
What do you think about that, by the way?
I haven't sorted out what I think about this yet.
Well, first and foremost, thank you, because I was wondering why none of these girls are messaging me back anymore.
And, you know, I'm saying, come on, what's going on here?
Can you?
Stop it.
You can say that.
It's a joke.
Would you stop it right now?
I actually think it's good.
You do?
Yes.
And I'll tell you why.
Because the problem with life now is the like button has become the compass in every sense of the word.
Number one, people try to emulate whatever is getting the most likes in an effort to gain currency in cloud on social media.
So it kind of defines the thought products.
You go, well, if a guy's tweeting this and getting a lot of likes, I guess maybe I should think in that direction.
So I don't like the impact that has on discourse.
But when it comes to young kids, everybody grows up in high school.
Now, we were probably pretty affable in high school
and did well for ourselves,
but I know a lot of kids who didn't.
And I would imagine there's a torment
to not being particularly popular at high school,
but when you pick up your phone,
you're now part of every high school in America, you know?
Yeah.
So there's not one kid walking down the hall
that's more popular than you are cool.
There's millions of them who have millions of other followers.
And I think on some level it demoralizes kids,
but the way it became so prevalent,
and this is why I think,
why I think it would be a good thing, is if you can no longer hand your kid's social media
as a parent, it forces you to interact with them on a human level and maybe make them
engage in activities that require less screen time. And the reason I think we got here,
I really mean this, is an iPad, a tablet, a phone became the easiest form of short-term
babysitting in this generation. No doubt. No doubt. Okay, I agree, and I don't think anybody
listening will disagree with your diagnosis of this as a contributing as a problem. So, but what you
said about comparing yourself to everybody in the nation, that's absolutely true. People have lost,
you know what I think is fascinating. You know, let's be real. Everybody sorts them. There's a self-sorting
mechanism on, for example, your mate. Yep. Right? Your mate. You know, I'm a six. Can I get a 10?
Yeah. Well, but the problem with social media, Instagram is everybody thinks that 10 is the standard.
Yeah, yeah. And that I should get it, right? But in, without that world, you. You know, you
You start finding, so there's a distorted sense of like what I should expect.
Yeah.
In a mate and so forth.
But the other aspect is sort of the Snapchat world of seeing where everybody is.
Yeah.
So there's a party and I wasn't invited to it.
There's a constant sense of rejection and who's in and who's out.
Big time.
That being said, what I haven't figured out in my head is whether or not, this is a form of censorship.
And whether or not kids need access to information as well.
Now, it's a lot of bad information.
Yeah.
Look, I have kids, and they'll come to me and say, I saw this.
I'm going, where'd you see it?
YouTube short, and that's on the list as well, of Band in Australia, or TikTok or whatever it may be.
And so I'm not saying that everything they're getting is good, but I'm just having trouble with, is it a good idea to say less information?
Well, I think the truth is for them, what we're basically doing is information's out there in other capacities.
But because of that demoralizing aspect of social media, that addictive quality and the fact that for these specific kids and that,
vulnerable age where you are developing and you're going through a lot of hormonal stuff,
I think their biggest challenges, they're really trying to address like this teen suicide issue.
There's a thing right now. I had to talk to Lincoln about this last night. I was reading about
this yesterday in the New York Post. So there's a new thing now where boys, my son's age, 16, 17,
will get a DM from a real girl. And what I mean by a real girl is you and I can create a Instagram
profile, but upload content that's entirely from some other girl he's never heard of's profile.
Real photos, real videos.
She's got a huge following.
She likes my son.
So they're DMing.
She starts sending topless pictures.
How about it?
Okay.
Eventually she wants him to send some back.
Okay, the next thing you know, he's sent a picture.
And the people running that account are now extorting him for money.
And the post wrote about this yesterday.
Yes.
It's become a big driver in teen suicide because these kids are so embarrassed.
And I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't want to limit information, but I think they're
trying to get several targeting scenarios under control.
control, you know. And I think that's the challenge here. And like you, I think there's a larger
conversation to be had. But when it comes to the kids, no one can argue this has been better for
them. And that's why I don't mind at least. I think that's true. Yeah, just taking like a 30-second
timeout to talk it over. All right. Check them out at Fox Across America with Jimmy Fallow. It's on
Fox News Radio. And Fox News Saturday night with Jimmy Fela as well. Jimmy Fela, we love having
you on the show. Look at the crowd's gathering outside. It's because Patrick's here.
Jimmy's here.
Oh, Tiger's here.
Tigers here.
It is all going down.
All right, Jimmy, thank you, man.
You're the man, Wilkane.
I can't reach you because of my Fee.
Nobody looked at it.
The thought was there.
Kennedy, next on Wilcane Country.
January 6th, pipe bomber was into My Little Pony.
It is Wilcane Country.
Streaming live here at the Wilcane Country YouTube channel.
Follow us on Spotify or on Apple.
Joining us now is the host of Kennedy Saves the World
and the Kansas.
Kennedy Chronicles, the Golden Age of MTV through rose-colored glasses.
Kennedy.
Yes.
What's up?
I'm wearing my pink glasses today.
You are so stylish.
Thank you.
Black leather.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Black head to toe, except for the, what do we call that kind of hat?
Trapper cap.
Or trapper hat.
Trapper hat?
Yes, it buckles if you need it to, which I don't right now.
But I love it.
It's cold weather.
And I've always felt that hats keep the good thoughts in.
Okay.
There's something to that, maybe.
maybe. Tell me if you've ever had this experience.
Okay. For three years, I've been doing this show. Three years. Okay. Okay. It feels like longer.
Well, I don't know what to. In a good way. Okay. No, it feels like a foundational, substantial
pillar of the conservative community. Well, thank you. Yes. Well, that man right over there, Patrick.
Hi, Patrick. I get to meet him for the first time. Guess what, Kennedy? It's his birthday? Me too.
You've never met Patrick? No. We talk on the phone every day.
He's worked here for three years.
Did you think he was an AI chat bot?
I considered it.
Yeah.
I did.
And how wild is it to meet?
Have you ever had that meet somebody for the first time that you know and you've spoken?
Is it we going to get into dating life at all here?
That you've spoken to a lot.
And then, wow, this is who you actually are.
Yeah.
Did you fall in love with him more deeply than you had imagined?
He is so different than what I thought.
Really? But you've seen, I mean, I've seen Patrick.
On a Zoom.
Okay.
Yeah.
But he's tall.
He's very tall.
That's right.
Yes, he's a towering man.
I coward.
I was terrified when he came out into the hallway and welcomed me into the wall.
Yes.
And he's a big man.
He's a big man.
In my head, he was 5'8.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, that's so funny.
Yes.
It's always weird when you think someone's tall and then you meet them in their short.
That's, that's worse.
That's worse, Patrick.
I think that's worse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because if in your mind, he was like 6, 6, 3,
And he's like, oh, hello, Will.
It's so good to see you.
Well, I get that a lot.
Just to make you feel better, Patrick, when I meet people in person, audience, it's always,
oh, wow, you're way taller than I imagined.
Even seeing me on TV every day.
How tall are you?
6-2?
I'm 6-2.
Yeah.
That's a great height.
And is it?
Yeah.
What's the ideal height for a man?
From a woman's perspective?
Well, it depends on the woman.
So I'm 5'9.
I could not be with someone shorter than me.
That would be tough.
And maybe that's sizes.
it's okay um but yeah i tried once very briefly if you were writing it down
wish list yeah genetic editing um what would you put six three
six four um no that's that's too tall because people that tall don't live as long oh not that tall
like well i think but i want a partner who might outlive me which i think is a tall order
by the way is that is that true um the actuarial tables on height people with big heads live live
longer. Tall people, they're like great
Danes. They have a great life
and privileged life.
I don't want this to be true because my son's 6'5.
My other one's on his way to 66. The world
blesses tall people.
Like doors open magically, especially
if you're tall and even
moderately attractive.
But you don't get a long life. The world is your
oyster. But you pay the price. Great life.
It's a satisfying, luxurious, privileged
life. Shorter. And you should enjoy
every moment of it. Yeah,
I wonder where the actuarial table say you go down.
Is that at 6-2, 6-3?
I'm 6-7.
6-7?
Yeah.
Hey, it turns out, I don't know if you saw his story, but the guy who's alleged and now been arrested,
and I think, by the way, has admitted in interrogations.
Oh, that honky Brian Cole?
That is gold.
That's a callback to Jake Tapper describing Brian Cole as a white man.
Why did he need to do that?
Like unless...
You and are in the news business.
Yeah.
It's utter certainty.
happen. Yeah, why are you saying that? Because you're like, well, Brian's a white name, so I'm going to
make sure and comfort our audience so they know. He had to have asked a producer, what is his race?
And a producer had to have told him white. Somebody had to have given him bad information.
I do not extend him that much grace. Really? Yes, because we've seen Jake Tapper make various
turns throughout his broadcasting career. You know, he was a big Joe Biden offender. Now all of a sudden
he's enriching himself being a Joe Biden truther.
So, yeah, he's one of those people who has to virtue signal.
And, you know, and that was one of those things.
How, can we say honky?
We can say honky.
I say honky and Cracker all the time.
I said it yesterday on outnumber because the women who were so outraged by the pantone
color of the year, it's called like Cloud Dancer.
And it's white.
They're all complaining like, oh, my God, the world is full of white.
and white supremacy, and this is disgusting.
This is giving Sidney-Sweeney vibes.
They all, every single one in the, like one white woman was in a white hat going,
I cannot believe this whiteness.
It is so disgusting.
I'm so ashamed.
And it's like, lady, you look like a Scandinavian clan member.
And all of the women, all of the white women who were bitching about this, I don't know
if we can use that word.
I'm sorry, Patrick.
You can use honky, but not bitching.
Okay, exactly.
They were all standing in front of white walls.
At least here in Will Kane country, we have the good sense to have some restored lumber and a nice patriotic blue.
And a diversity of colors.
Exactly right.
Yeah. That take was the macarena of takes, meaning like it was a take.
You're like, oh, that had a moment in time, but it's passed.
Oh, yes.
And now you're the person doing the one hit wonder years later.
Yeah, you're the aggrieved white woman.
Not nostalgically.
No.
Not ironically.
Not for fun.
Not like the guy shows up now and is like, play the macarena.
You know, but the one that's just like two or three years later, I still love the macarena.
She's doing the race thing when it would, that was a 20-21 take.
Yeah, with no irony.
Right.
And it's like, you are not the savior.
Like, you are not the aggrieved Karen who, on behalf of all lady crackers, you are going
to write the grievous wrongs of this nation's history.
But that honky Brian Cole, Jr., is apparently.
there's a name for these guys
because it's a thing
the guys that are into my little ponies
he's a brony
he's a brony yeah
he's into my little pony he's a brony
I love how you all pretended you didn't know that
it took me a minute
it took me a minute that was a story too a couple years ago
oh yeah and now we got a brony that was dropping
pipe bombs yeah I mean
wholly unsurprising
like the
emotional child the arrested
development
you know it's like the the
the manufactured metaverse that he was living in.
It's like the unreality,
the lack of human decency,
you know, life is disposable.
So, you know, I might as well construct a few pipe bombs
and do some damage.
That's an interesting term.
Life is disposable.
I think it's exactly,
I think it's very descriptive of an unfortunate mindset
that is really getting out there
with younger people.
And I hate that I'm saying this, but I do think video games and disconnectedness has a role in that, like, you die, you spawn, you die, you spawn, you kill all the time.
I do think it can rewire your brain.
If that's the only wiring you have, absolutely.
If you don't have tactile outlets, if you're not running around recirculating the blood in your body through your brain and sweating things out.
and, you know, you just sit and dig yourself deeper and deeper into this singular track.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think it can have dire consequences.
I don't blame video games.
But, you know, people who exist like that unchallenged because their parents are terrified
that their child is going to get angry at them, so they pacify them, you know, with this
singular thing, it can turn out to have horrible consequences.
And also, you know, and that's one.
of the threads that I see sort of woven throughout society right now is the disposability of
life, the celebration of abortion, people who indiscriminately take life. And their own.
And suicide. Yep. I mean, it's like you read about a famous person killing themselves
every time I get like a people news alert and it's an influencer or a celebrity or a famous writer.
I'm like, it's either cancer or suicide.
Sometimes it's a fentanyl overdose, which also, in its own way, is a form of suicide.
But unfortunately, we grow so numb to it.
Disposability of life. It's totally true.
David Spade, Kennedy.
Do you know David?
Yeah.
You do? I figured you did. You know all the celebrities.
I sent a celebrity a note this morning.
True.
I sent an email to Kevin Costner.
Well done.
You know why?
I'm on the airplane last night.
And for some reason on my iPad, the movies don't work.
They just don't work.
I hit play, and it sits there, and it'll never play on American.
Even if you've downloaded...
No, the ones they provide on the...
Oh, really?
Yeah.
And so, but what does work is live TV.
Okay, so it's live TV.
I was like, let me just see what they have.
You know, they only have like 12 channels, live TV.
And I just saw this thing and said Kevin Costner Presents.
I didn't know what it was.
And I'm like, well, it's Kevin Costner.
Let's just see what he's doing.
It was on ABC.
I clicked it.
And it was Kevin Costner Presents the First Christmas.
And he did this.
thing. He hosted it, and it had dramatic acting in it, like vignettes and scenes, and then it had
documentary-style interviews from here and there. And it was all about really, honestly, the birth
of Jesus. And it was really entertaining. And it was so bold for him to do this. He was like,
he was like, I'm a believer. This is what I believe. And we've lost, he says it, it's not about
Santa Claus. It's not about this story, this story that has affected people for 2,000 years and
like half of the globe. And it was just amazing. It was, it was good.
But it was even more than good in that I couldn't believe Kevin Costner said, this is what I want to do.
I'm pushing it.
So I said, no.
Just say, hey, man, that was incredibly important.
And I'm glad people like that have realized and acknowledged, like, half the people in this country, you know, are people of faith and, you know, statistically of Christian faith.
Yeah.
And they want to be reconnected with the basic tenets of their faith.
Well, that's what I emailed him.
I said, by the way, you know, you've seen the stats on the decline across the world,
but in America as well.
You've also seen the correlation of the rise of depression and purposelessness and aimlessness
and in the most extreme circumstances, to your point, suicide.
And I think that's tied to the disposability of life in some ways.
And so I just think it's important.
It was important that he did that.
And so I want to send him a note.
But I'm not friends with David Spade.
David Spade, though, has joined the war on Christmas.
And he's on Bill O'Reilly's side.
He has joined the Bill O'Reilly Army, at least in part.
He said he went to a mall and they had a tree lighting and everything was tree lighting, tree lighting, no mention of Christmas.
And he was like, what do we?
This is like the anti-Cevon-Costner thing.
It's like we've reduced this holiday into its secular materialistic trappings.
And I guess it's not totally over yet.
It's still going on, the war on Christmas.
Yeah.
And people want to see a nativity scene.
People want to feel something.
And there is nothing that makes you feel as deep.
as the birth of a miracle
and how the world changed
and it's okay
like I still get so mad when people
like happy holidays
and you know it's like my Jewish friends
they don't like they're not emulsified
when you say Merry Christmas
like they're good with it we know
it's Christmas time I also say happy Hanukkah
you know it's like I celebrate like I am stoked
for other people who have faith
and who put something
greater than themselves central to
their lives.
Yes.
And I love that David Spade is feeling that.
And I really feel like the murder of Charlie Kirk
has allowed people to talk about their faith
without making excuses for it
and without trying to rationalize it
and just having conversations.
And a lot of the conversations
that I hear people having,
it's not proselytizing.
It's not proving like,
I'm more saved than you are.
It's really people coming from a place
of curiosity.
Yeah.
And, you know, having studied philosophy of religion, I love that.
Yeah.
And I love when people share stories.
I like hearing when people share stories about how they came to their political beliefs.
Me too.
And hearing stories about how people came into their faith, I think it's a very beautiful
thing.
And one of the things that connects us, which is not fashionable.
It is much more important for people to divide us in every way imaginable.
Yeah, that is every way imaginable. Right now, that is happening. I mean, and what I'm talking about there is, you know, even in the political sphere on the right.
We are amidst a chaos of division. Yes. As we speak. Yeah. All right, Kennedy, thank you so much for coming in here. This has been awesome.
Well, it's always good to see you. Welcome to New York. Thank you so much. And in Mom Dhani's New York, you can take whatever you want. If you see a guy with a nice backpack, it's mine. It's yours. His ability, you're
need, you can go ahead and take it.
Love it. Yep.
What does Patrick have that I want?
That's what I'm looking.
Height and girth.
Thank you, Kennedy.
Thank you, he saves the world.
That's going to do it for us today.
Two days, Dan, tinfoil pat will be all back here again tomorrow with, by the way, Erica Kirk.
We'll see you then.
