Starting point is 00:02:04 It's UB Trippin, yeah. Hi everybody. Welcome to UB Trippin. It's a travel podcast. This is my announcer voice. We go to different places every week. That's pretty much the podcast. It's mostly comics and then some non comics.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Steph Tolove is on today. She's a wonderful standup comedian. She's allowed to be in almost every green room in America. Almost. There's one big one I'm not allowed in. You're allowed in. That's crazy. That was an oversight.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Oh, that's funny. Where are we going? We're going to Scotland. Nice. I love it. Have you been? Lost my virginity there. Did you? Nope.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Well, I'm going there. I have fucked there a lot. Have you been? Lost my virginity there. Did you? Nope. Well, I'm going there. I have fucked there a lot. Did you do that at Brofringe Fest? Yeah. Oh yeah, you must have got your fucking schnoz sucked right off over there. Dry.
Starting point is 00:02:55 The only dry thing in Scotland was my dick after that. Everything else was wet and prudy, but your dick was just dry as hell and just scathed up, flaking. How many years did you do it? I did it three times. I would have got another for pandemic and then a scheduled special before instead of after. So then it was like, yeah, but I'll go back.
Starting point is 00:03:13 You seem like someone who likes Scotland. A bucket hat, perfect for Scotland weather. Yeah, exactly. So that rain ran off the head. Why'd you go and when? I, okay, I used to competitively Highland dance, Scottish Highland dancing from the ages three to 18. I thought your mom went to the Highlands.
Starting point is 00:03:37 I didn't hear the message. My mother has been teaching Highland dancing since she was 19 years old. She dropped out of high school. She's Scottish? No. No, she's not. My old. She dropped out of high school. Is she Scottish? No. No, she's not. My grandmother. She's an Albo? She's Canadian, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Albo? What's Albo? What's that? Is that derogatory for Albanian? No, no, no. What are you? I'm Bulgarian. Bulgarian, a Bulga? I was like, what is this?
Starting point is 00:03:56 A Bulga-ri? Let's get some new racism. Bulgies, I think she calls. Bulgies. Bulgies, Bulgos. You got a bulge in your pocket. That means like the Bulgarians moving in the neighborhood, time to move out. Yeah, yeah,gos. You got a bulge in your pocket. That means like the Bulgarians move it in the neighborhood, time to move out.
Starting point is 00:04:07 You got a bulge in your pocket. And they can say that about most of the women because we all look manly. So they can say that. A couple of bulgees over here. My grandmother saw somebody Highland dancing at a party when she was a kid and got in her head. And then she got my mother into it.
Starting point is 00:04:22 And then my mom liked it so much, she started teaching it. So my mother, so I'm like from a dance mom life, which if you know anything about is hell on earth. Hell on fucking earth. I had no life. I had practice every single night. I had come home from school. Just for Highland or all types? Highland dancing. Just Highland dancing. What? I mean you're no, at some point we're gonna have to do all types? Highland dancing, just Highland dancing. I mean, you know at some point we're gonna have to do a wide shot of you doing it. We have to watch Highland dancing. So if you're listening right now, picture kilts, picture the bank pipes.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Is that where you go like this with a log and you chuck it up? Yes, that's part of the Highland games. Which I should have fucking done that. You know how good I would have been at throwing that log over? You throw it over one time. My parents fucked up, there we go.
Starting point is 00:05:01 Highland dancing. What? So let me tell you right now, those kilts are fucking heavy as shit. Really? Those wool socks, oh my God, this outfit alone is heavy like eight pounds. What?
Starting point is 00:05:11 I swear to God. The matching wool and sock is wild. Yeah, so you would, the jackets you would wear if you were a good dancer. I should've worn this for my storytelling show. You should've worn it? Why, didn't you? I don't know, I didn't know about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Steph? So you dance over swords, that's a main dance. Over the swords? Yeah, so there's a sword, you put a sword on the ground, it's not sharp, and you dance over it, and if you touch the sword, if your foot even whispers it, you get disqualified. Killed, oh.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Yeah, you get off stage, they slit your throat. You get disqualified if you touch the sword. Yeah, so they're usually, in every competition, there's four dances, fling, sword, chantrous, and reel. Slow down, what? So, there's competition, there's four dances. Fling, sword, chantrous and reel. Slow down. What? So there's like, there's different- Sling, chartrous.
Starting point is 00:05:50 Sling, highland fling, sword dance, chantrous and the highland reel. So those are like the main four dances you would do every single weekend. You're in your age group. Is this just chicks? No, there's some guys, there's a guy right there. There's a guy in the photo right above there.
Starting point is 00:06:05 Homosexual. I will say majority are. Yeah. But there was a couple in there and they were getting their butts fingered because I'll tell you what, the girls, there's only a few men. I had a crush on a guy.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Morgan, I called him, what's his last name? Morgan McKenzie. Blonde tips. Morgan, if you're listening. You can still get it. You can still get it. You can still get it. You missed it. I was so ugly, I had a unibrow.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Um, I had a unibrow on this nose. I was hideous and I was not built like a dancer. Like all these dances, look at them, they're all small framed, little feet. I have, look at this, nine and a half fuckers. Big shoulders. This would be a good fighting technique as well. It is.
Starting point is 00:06:42 Yeah. I think that was all based off like, you know, actual highlight. I don't know what that is. I don't know. It's like, no, it's this. It's the fingers. It's the middle finger and the thumb.
Starting point is 00:06:50 Oh. Oh yeah. You're good. Yeah. Up and then high. Yes. You're going to have to do this later. Oh God.
Starting point is 00:06:54 One hand on the fist like this. Okay. Okay. Um, and you go every year to compete? So, yeah. So every year in Scotland, they have the biggest highland aging championships in the world called the Cowl Highland Games.
Starting point is 00:07:08 So there's like, that's where they have like- The Highlands? Yes, so that's where they have the Cabor Taws and they have like other, they have pipe band competitions. I also played the bank pipes for a year. I was really bad though. I like- Yeah, hurry space.
Starting point is 00:07:23 My mom wanted me to, because at the competitions, a live piper plays. So my mom was cheap as fuck. They ran competitions. So she wanted me to play the bagpipes. And then I thought my teacher was a pervert because you just play on the chanter and he would just stare at my tits.
Starting point is 00:07:33 I was like 14. I was like, he's looking at my boobs as pig. So I'd wear like three sweaters. I'd be soaked trying to play. I was so bad. Did anyone mistake one of those like long, the read things that you have to play for bagpipes for your nose?
Starting point is 00:07:46 Very similar, yeah. That's what I play. Okay. Yeah. It's so rarely where I get to make a nose joke at someone. I know, I was like, coming from fucking nose. I get it now, everybody else. I get it now.
Starting point is 00:07:56 It is fun. This is the only podcast I felt safe on, and I immediately come on and I'm getting a nose joke. You piece of shit. So yeah, I started, you start young, I started when I was three years old. Three years fucking old I was Highland dancing. And you went to the Highlands every year.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Yes, so every year we'd go to Scotland. Outside a castle like that? No, it was in Cowell. Okay, Highland's rule, like the landscape and shit. The landscape's cool, yes. I was like, the dancing is, it's fine, it's whatever. How'd you do in the dance? Not good, look at my body!
Starting point is 00:08:31 What are you talking about? I was not built to be doing this. Yeah, these are all the very light, petite women. They're very small, light, nimble girls, little feet, and then me, schlopping around. Actually, that might be, wait, click on that left photo with the cowl gathering, that one, yeah, that's be, wait, click on that left photo with the cowl gathering, that one, yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:45 That's my mom's student to the left. She won, but she fucking, she left my mom right when she got there. It's fucking drama. That girl's mom was a fucking bitch. She right there, my mom taught her for fucking 15 years. They got to this huge competition. She fucking left my mom, literally,
Starting point is 00:09:04 that's her on the left. I'm not gonna say her name bitch, but your mom is a piece of shit. Literally, my mom trained her from the time she was a kid. My mom flies to Scotland for her to win this fucking competition, and she fucking fires her the day my mom gets there. You know how crazy that is?
Starting point is 00:09:20 And the crazy, that girl right there. And you know what the craziest thing, my mom has the best Thailand dance in the world. She's won consecutively 15 years this competition straight. Every age group, which nobody else has done. She's still won though. She's still won. But she was trained by her mom.
Starting point is 00:09:34 She was trained by her mom. Yeah, right, right, right. Wasn't like someone else got her. Yeah, no, she got there and some fat pig who's balding took over training her. And I was like, well, she didn't do anything. An agent, look at that unibrow in the middle, that lady. But look how thin they are.
Starting point is 00:09:45 They're thin, look how pointed their toes are. Yeah, the one in the middle looks tough. Yeah, she looks like she doesn't take no guff. I think that girl's Scottish. You can tell the Scots look very harsh. Which one, the one in the middle? Yeah. Yeah, they look harsh, Viking-like and pale.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Oh, very pale. Such a pale group of women. Well, there's no sun out there. The fact that the sun was out right there. I saw my first dick and balls at one of these Highland Games. Yeah, a man in a kiln above my head. Shaking it around. There's no, they don't wear underwear.
Starting point is 00:10:13 That's real. But shaking it around. Like, I looked up, me and my friend, my friend was underneath and she goes, she goes, look. I'm like, what? And I looked up and he was like. Oh, he was like really giving it to you.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Oh, yeah, he gave it to us. I was like eight. It was crazy. That's was like, hehehe. Oh he was like really giving it to you. Oh yeah, he gave it to us. I was like eight. It was crazy. That's too young for us. It was way too young to be bald. I'll never do that, but not an eight year old. Maybe a teenage. 13, at least 14, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:10:37 What are you gonna ask for her ID, Crystalia? Hey before I swing my dick and balls around here, can I see your ID? You're too old enough to do this. But also again, nobody. But if it has to be someone, not an eight year old. Double digits, bro. Not an eight year old.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Yeah, double digits. It was, and he was laughing his head off. He thought it was so funny. We were like, this is demented behavior. Kind of out of line. So this competition is crazy. So all these dancers go, and the day before, you have to do something to compete
Starting point is 00:11:04 to get into the big world championships. So I never even did the world championships because I was not good. So you had to come top, I didn't qualify. You had to come top six at least in one dance. Nothing, I'm dog shit. You go all the way to Skyline, don't qualify? My mom is the dancer who was really good.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Oh, so she's like, hey, if I'm gonna fly out here, you're gonna bagpipe this shit. And then I didn't even do that. I ended up finding a dog one year. I rescued this dog and they couldn't find me and they looked in the middle of the field and I was carrying this disgusting wet dog and it stunk so bad.
Starting point is 00:11:31 I'm gonna get so pissed. I would just, I literally. You're not like white people. Oh yeah, I was very, I was a very white person thing. Guys, quick break to tell you about today's guest, Stef Toloff, she is a fucking hilarious standup comedian. Legitimately. I remember when she came to New York from London, Ontario, maybe
Starting point is 00:11:48 Toronto, probably Toronto, but it was like who's this? She was just great from the start. She was a...so okay, so there's some comics. By the way, she has a new special out right now called Filth Queen on Netflix. Everybody go watch it. There's... here's what...let me give you a little insight into the comedy world. Comedians sometimes, you know how they say in MMA, matchups make fights or something like that? I don't know what they say.
Starting point is 00:12:14 That happens with comedy too, and there's certain comics that are hard to follow. And comics don't like to struggle, we just don't. We're always trying to kill, even when we're doing a material. And there's a few comics that you do struggle with. So comics invent a reason why they had trouble like oh, they're just famous So they all like that person or not me when we're actuality plenty people follow famous people quite well
Starting point is 00:12:34 I saw Steve Simone get a standing ovation after After Louis CK. It's like 2015 2016 at his height and Steve Simone went on after him as a nobody and got a standing o and that so don't tell me It's cuz someone's famous, but they do that to comics and then you have to tell them like no no They were crushing well before they were famous for him Anwar Shane Gillis people are all Shane's famous. She did Shane was crushing on a level you couldn't comprehend Before he was known at all. So don't give me that bullshit. And Stef Tolive is that too. She destroys. And hopefully soon and thankfully soon we get an excuse now. It's gonna be, oh of course I couldn't
Starting point is 00:13:17 follow Stef Tolive before and nobody really knew her. It's just on me. But now now that she has a Netflix special Filth Queen streaming today Now we have an excuse Thank you Netflix for making mid-level comedians like me able to sleep with ourselves for not being able to follow Steph before this It was really damaging. Oh, do you want to go before me? Oh, no steps on I don't know who's on step Oh, is this stuff? Yeah, you wanna go on for me? I can go one after Those days will be gone.

Starting point is 00:17:14 I'm sure you've done it in the past. Be there, it's Shroomfest. I didn't invent it. Mushrooms told me to invent it and give it to you guys. So they invented it, and I'm just telling you. Shroomfest, see you out there. My biggest story that I would do, my mom got so mad, so it was the qualifications for the Worlds.
Starting point is 00:17:29 And um. Your video of you dancing? I might have something. I might have something. It's deep on the phone, but I could find it. Yeah, find it. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Um. Yeah, yeah. This dance, the sword was the only dance that I usually would place in, cause I didn't touch it, cause I didn't care. And I would just, like, everyone else would be so nervous and I didn't give a fuck, so I'd just dance over it. So they called my group up
Starting point is 00:17:51 and I just ordered this baked potato. And it was like, have you ever had a jack of potatoes in Scotland? A what? Jack of potatoes? A jack of potatoes. So it's like coleslaw, beans, butter, chives. Oh, Taddy's a mash. I just ordered and I sat down,
Starting point is 00:18:02 I was like, my fucking potato's here. I started eating it and they called my group up and I'm like, well, I don't wanna go. My mom was like, get out ordered and I sat down, I was like, my fucking potato's here. I started eating it and they called my group off and I'm like, well, I don't wanna go. My mom was like, get out there, do the fucking dance. And I was like, I wanna hit the sword. She said, no you're not, I go, watch this. So I walk up, the whole group's lining up, warming up and I'm like, my potato's ready,
Starting point is 00:18:16 so I'm gonna hit the sword so I can go up and get it. They're like, no you won't, I wanna go watch this. No one believed me, this is a big deal for everybody. So the first step, I did the best first step you ever seen. I get in the second step, I hit the sword, I go. You do a big bow, I fix the sword, I'm like, sorry. Ran right up, ate my potato. My mom was so fucking pissed off at me.
Starting point is 00:18:33 It was the one you're good at. I know, but I was like, my potato's getting cold. And I was very upset. I see both sides. I was like, fuck this. So, okay, so here's the thing. The potato was getting cold. It was getting cold.
Starting point is 00:18:46 It's not as good as a fresh potato. You need it freshly and you open it up and that steam that puffs out. Mom, just move me back in the order. Or don't let me order a potato right before I'm about to go up. Don't make me dance. I'm not good.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Why are you eating potato right before you dance? That's not the right pre-dance meal. Like picture if you were, okay, picture if you're, picture Jerry Seinfeld yeah yeah does stand up pictures some of the worst stand-up you've seen in your life okay very easy that's that that's my mother that was what I was for her teaching so she had the best student in the world and I get up there with my large fucking shoulders and schlop around it wasn't great this nose too
Starting point is 00:19:21 nobody knows what the hell is this? That's absurd. That's gonna hit the floor. Oh my God, this is so embarrassing. I think I scraped these pictures on the internet. But one year I got those braids done, you know, those like black girl braids. Oh yeah. And I had to put, you had to put in a bun. Do you know how psychotic I looked? I had this fucking bun that was my whole
Starting point is 00:19:39 head. And there's one dance called, if you look up the sailor's hornpipe, you have to wear a hat. I love how this could easily be made up. Go sailor's hornpipe. There it is, sailor's hornpipe. It came up, it was, there it is. You have to wear this hat. So my hat couldn't even get around my head
Starting point is 00:19:55 because my fucking braids were so big. It was like hovering. The elastic was like holding on for dear life and my hat was like hovering over my head. And you gotta, oh man. Your jump, so the thing is with Highland, anybody ever compliments my legs? These are Highland dancing legs.
Starting point is 00:20:10 I've been jumping up and down. Look at that line. That's the Highland line. That's fucking rock solid. One leg straight out, one leg straight down. I've been jumping up and down my entire life. This is all I do. And you hop on one leg and you're fucking sweating
Starting point is 00:20:20 your balls off out there. It's hot as hell. Yeah, it's hot. You're hot, you're kicking, you're licking. Bugs are annoying some places, because you're in the woods. You're outside, you're in the fucking highlands. Those bingies, bingies, chiggers, what are they called?
Starting point is 00:20:33 You just want to say racist word. You're just chopping out the bit here to say something. Bidgers, something like that. They weren't as bad as you'd think. There's also, there's like some sheep and dogs mucking around so they'd go to them. There's some egg sect out there some sheep and dogs mucking around so they'd go to them. There's some egg sect out there that fucking burrows into your skin.
Starting point is 00:20:49 It bites the shit out of you and like keeps clawing at you, these big. What the hell is that? Like something with a C-H. They're called chiggers. What is it? Chiggers. Chiggers, yeah. I think you're moving around too much, so they're not burrowing. But this is like, so I will say, this is huge all across the world.
Starting point is 00:21:04 So like mostly North America, so I will say this is huge all across the world. So like mostly North America. So in Canada, every weekend I had a dance competition. Scottish dancing. Scott, I guarantee you right now, it's June 3rd, I guarantee you there's a Highland dancing competition this weekend in or around the Austin area. Guarantee. It's like a weird, small, it's like, it's small, but it's a big, it's a big community of people.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Lot of people do it, and also my mom's like pretty famous in the Highland world. As a teacher. As a teacher, everybody knows her. Does she like, does she rule with like an iron fist? Yeah, she's, and she's very sassy, and she's like, she's like me, but like, same mullet. She actually does it the same, hairs me, but it's straight.
Starting point is 00:21:44 So anyway, so we used to go and do these competitions. Yeah. So we traveled a lot. I mean, that part's cool. That part's cool. I can't shit publicly. So all this bouncing around. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:21:56 When I was a kid, I would be bunked up for weeks. Weeks on end. Like I'm talking at one point, we were at a Highland Dates competition in Nova Scotia, and all of a sudden they collapsed. The new fee. New fee. I fell over. I'm like, wait, wait, wait. Something's going on. Wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:22:10 What do you mean? When you say you can't shit publicly, I meant on these dancing trips, a piece of shit will not leave my asshole. I could do it in the hotel room. Can do in the hotel room. What do you mean? That's not public. I couldn't do it. I would say my grandma's there. She knows you're happy. My dad's yelling. Well, share hotel room with hell. How did you normally poop? I quiet sometimes in the dark
Starting point is 00:22:28 turn the lights off. It'd be a little dark pooper. All night pooper. Can we get Dr. Drew back in here and talk this out? I'm better now. It's still not great, but I'm better now. I used to hold it. Yeah, I'd hold it. It was like, I don't want it. And then it became such a ball that it would be so hard to get it out. Yes. Because it was so crushing. This is exactly what I would do. And it would take me so, you would think because we're eating healthy, we're jumping around. Yeah. So we would go on these trips.
Starting point is 00:22:50 So this, it started in Nova Scotia. I fell over. Weeks? Week was the longest I went, 11 days. So I fell over, no, Newfoundland. I fell over this. Did you ever have to reach in and try to pull some out? Almost, it was close. I used a spoon once.
Starting point is 00:23:02 It was just, okay. Why you guys like, you need, Dr. Drew, you need them. I'm relating. A spoon. Yeah, I was like so crunched up and like hard when you pushed out, I was like, it's fucking to try to like get some like out. You did this yourself?
Starting point is 00:23:15 Yeah. You can't really tell anybody. Hey, I held the poop so long that it's too big for the whole. What was your longest? I think a week. A week? I think I poop so long that it's too big for the hole. What was your longest? I think a week. A week? I think I poop about every week. Definitely.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah, and as a kid your butthole's smaller and it's not as loose, it hasn't been beaten up. You haven't got touched by a ladyboy like you almost did. So it hasn't been pounded yet. I was gonna fuck, I wasn't gonna get fucked. Oh, you were gonna fuck? Yeah. Oh, okay, I don't know't want my pictures the way around.
Starting point is 00:23:52 It's good we really honestly let's make notes for Dr. Drew for later. So I was at this competition I fell over I'm like something's wrong I thought my appendix burst so they wheel me out so embarrassing I was like oh my god Joy's daughter Joy's daughter it's a big mistake she's oh my god she's gonna be she's gonna be fucked she's in the hospital they take me to hospital they rush me my mom and dad are there. The doctor comes in and he goes, okay. So we did some x-rays. When's the last time you took a bowel movement? And I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:24:14 And he's like, when's the last time you pooped? And I was like, I don't even remember. And he's like, yeah. My parents were so mad. They were like, we have to go back now. Everyone's gonna eat fucking shit for a week. Because they were like embarrassed. I got wheeled out in a wheelchair because I had to go cock-a everyone's gonna eat fucking shit for a week. Because they were like embarrassed. I got wheeled out in a wheelchair
Starting point is 00:24:26 because I had to go kaka. That's so psychotic. So I like go back. It was embarrassing. So yeah, very embarrassing. So this is where my story comes in. Okay. So we would travel all through the highlands.
Starting point is 00:24:39 I remember we'd rent a car, we would drive to see like the Stirling Castle all through the fucking Scottish mountains, all these places we drive I Came rose one castle we went to but we there's a little Gift shop and I remember I just shit so bad. I was like fuck so I just sit down So whenever I got this urge to shit that I had to shit I should just shit But instead I would sit the fuck down. So we're in this public
Starting point is 00:25:00 Gift shop and there's this little trinket thing. This is a glass case and all these little tiny trinkets. And I'm like, okay, I'm gonna sit here and just play with these. I was probably 11 years old. So I sit down cross-legged and I'm looking at this stuff and all of a sudden I hear this fucking bang. The loudest bang I've heard my entire fucking life. I'm like, I feel this immense pressure.
Starting point is 00:25:17 And I'm like, I thought a bomb had gone off in the store. People are screaming, people are crying. I open my eyes and I'm like, I can't breathe. There's dust everywhere. And I'm like, I can't breathe. There's dust everywhere. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? I look up, this woman is lying on my body. Like a whole woman is on top of me. And I'm like, oh my God, oh my God, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:25:40 So I like shimmy off. I go to find my mom, I'm bawling my eyes out, I'm like, oh my God, this woman. And they're like, what the fuck? She had fallen through the ceiling. She was doing like an inventory. It was like a 12 foot ceiling. She stepped on the wrong thing, fell,
Starting point is 00:25:53 just missed this glass case, and landed on my huge child body, and I saved her fucking life. I saved her fucking life. Because you softened the blow? I softened the blow, and her head, I patted her head on my fucking body. Like her head was like here in my chest.
Starting point is 00:26:08 So I got. If not for your boobs, she would have been dead? If not for my Bulgarian sternum, this woman would be dead. If it's not for my can't go publicly shit, I say, so the ambulance came over, they took her out and they were like, she's unscathed. She doesn't have a bruise, she's gonna be fine.
Starting point is 00:26:24 They took her in for testing anyways. Her, me, notcathed. She doesn't have a bruise, she's gonna be fine. They took her in for testing anyways. Her, me, not a bump, not a scratch, not a bruise. They gave me this little good luck charm, this little horseshoe, like here you go, thank you for saving her life. And I'm like, if she had hit that fucking glass cabinet, if she had been dead. Dead, right on you, bleeding all over you.
Starting point is 00:26:37 Dead, bleeding all over me. It would have been hell. I would have been probably also severely hurt because I would have been, the glass would have gone to me too. Yeah. So guess what? My moral of the story is, no, I saved my fucking life.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Wait, wait, so she just walked away? She walked away, they took her to the thing but she was fine, the ambulance came and everybody was like, what the fuck just happened? I wish there was security cameras in that because that would have been the best video I've ever had. Yeah, just you there, boom, crushing a child. Because I had no idea what was happening,
Starting point is 00:27:10 my body went limp, so that's how I saved her fall by me just being like, ugh. And I didn't even shit. I can't believe I didn't shit. That didn't even get me to shit. That's how tight my asshole was, that a fucking, she was like, hey, I'll tell you what went she wasn't a small lady.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Like this was not a tiny little highland dancer that fell on me. This was a Bulgarian woman that fell on top of my body. Big gal. It was so crazy. And the whole rest of the weekend, my mom came in like, should we check you? The literally they did like an exam with me. There's a good hospital guy there or whatever nurse that looked me. He's like, he raves fine. I'm like, no, I'm fine. Nothing wrong with me.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Insane. That's crazy. All because I shouldn't share. You should still be in touch with that lady. I know, what the heck? I should have somehow contacted her and been like, what the heck? I know somebody who got a kidney
Starting point is 00:27:58 from somebody in his community. And then now he's like, every time he sees him, he's like, do I gotta say thank you every time? Like, it's so weird. It's like. I wouldn't wanna know. I wouldn't wanna know. No, no, you get, if you get someone's insides, keep that. Yeah, but like,

Starting point is 00:31:00 I did the Fringe a couple of years, 2012. It was a long time ago. It was a long time ago, it was too much. It was exhausting. Me and my sketch partner did it. It's just too much shrinking. I was doing standup and sketch and I kept trying to get us into every show
Starting point is 00:31:14 and I signed us up for this double-decker school bus thinking it was a funny, fun show. We show up and they're like, okay, you ready for the kids show? We're like, sorry? They're like, oh yeah, the five-year-olds are upstairs. I'm like, five-year-olds? At the time, me and they're like, okay, you ready for the kids show? We're like, sorry? They're like, oh yeah, the five year olds are upstairs. I'm like, five year olds? At the time, me and my friend Allison,
Starting point is 00:31:28 when we were called Lady Stash, our closing bit was this huge dildo and we had these puppets and we would jerk off the dildo and I was like, what? We had to go into this stuff. We heard puppets. We had puppets and we had to like, we sang camp songs to these kids.
Starting point is 00:31:42 What? We couldn't do our jokes, it was crazy. That's Bob, that's Bob Slayer, he's my promoter. He has the bus. Bob fucked us, I didn't know. It's the blunderbuss. It's Bob. Yeah, it's Bob.
Starting point is 00:31:52 I had no fucking clue. I did comedy for fucking three to five years. He used to be a tour manager for a, what's criminals, fuck you like an animal, I wanna fuck you, no, I don't know. Night of snails? No, no, no, I'm thinking, nothing but that. Oh, nothing but, oh, bloodhound gang.
Starting point is 00:32:09 Yeah, he used to be tour manager with them and then he has his blood to bust and he got you and wouldn't tell, which makes sense because he was drunk all the time. He ruled. I would not have said yes to that. Oh, yeah. Three year olds?
Starting point is 00:32:21 What are you fucking talking about? You're jerking off a fucking puppet in front of them? Jesus Christ. They loved us though, they really did. I bet. Everyone else probably caters to their level. Did you get to see the Highland games too when you were there? Yeah, oh yeah, because you're in the stands.
Starting point is 00:32:35 So you're just kind of watching it all. So the dancing stage is here, they have a track around, people are doing like some running races. Then there's like all these tents, then all the pipe bands come in. The back pipe bands? Yeah, so it's pipes, drums, all the pipe bands come in. What, the back pipe bands? Yeah, so it's pipes, drums, like everything, they come in and they compete.
Starting point is 00:32:49 So pipers compete individually and then the bands compete and people go by and they watch them. It's a whole thing. Wow, that seems cool. The dancing I could care less about. The dancing and also the amount of fucking perverted dads. I gotta see a picture of you dancing too. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:33:02 The what? The amount of perverted dads. That's when I started hating men, when I was literally a young, because first of all, no one looked at me. Wonder why. You missed out on this, my little nipples that I thought I had cancer with for three years
Starting point is 00:33:13 when nipples were growing in. You're one of those fish that if you look straight, it's a tiny fish and then it goes. Yeah. Really, how many more of these? I actually can't believe you're doing this. I get it, it's so fun. Isn't it, what?
Starting point is 00:33:25 It's so mean. Because you change publicly. Like Highland Dancers, if you're a pervert, I can't believe Dele wasn't there. Two Dele jokes, one podcast. I can't believe he wasn't there because the girls would get off stage, take off their jackets, and they'd just have a bra on.
Starting point is 00:33:41 So it's all these pre-teens running around in a bra, and I remember just watching some dads help their daughters, and I just see them looking at other ones,'s all these like preteens running around bra, and I remember just watching some dads like help their daughters and I just see them looking at them and I was like, this is disgusting behavior. I'm sick. So gross. It's so weird though if you're like, why'd you like boops, oops wrong set, wrong look.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Yeah, it was like so, ugh. My dad, so my mom still does highland dancing stuff. My dad now announces at the competitions in Toronto. Really? Oh yeah. Oh the whole thing. Wait is there Scottish dancing here in Austin? There has to be. There's well there's Kaley dance that's different. Several Highland Games, Califest schedules. Yeah for 2025 look at this San Antonio Highland Games. Yeah. It's already passed. Okay well what's that one? Oh yeah that's it. Wow. Oh you mean you got to compete in one of these. November come back. I was trying,
Starting point is 00:34:24 I was thinking of doing, like writing a movie about this because it's so, like I will fair out to people where I like come back and like try to do it. It would kill me. Well you'd already have. It's so hard to do. But you'd already have, you know how like, there's a video of like, hey here's every actor
Starting point is 00:34:38 trying to do sports. And it's like, hey man, and they all throw left handed. It's like, I don't know, dad's trying to force me into it. They don't know how to throw, because they've trained in like, in like throwing and they all throw left-handed. It's like, I don't know, dad's trying to force me into it. They don't know how to throw, because they've trained in like, in like throwing for like a week. You would look like you know what you're doing. I do know what I'm doing.
Starting point is 00:34:51 I know every, I right now could technically do every single Highland dance. There's probably 15, 20 inches. I, I can't, oh God. No. What, can I teach it to you then? Yeah. Well then I'm teaching it to you. No. I understand. What can I teach it to you then? Yeah. Then I'm teaching it to you.

See, that's why now I needed the carbs. Yeah, right, right. I'm out of breath from that, it's crazy. Yeah, it's a little bit difficult.

It's a fucking velvet and your arm can barely get up and then down, that's it. And that's just from the Highlands. That's not like lower Scotland dancing. Which is different. Which is all the inline like.
Starting point is 00:38:26 I think it's all the same. Really? No, they have the Kayleys. They have like Kayleigh dancing and they have Scottish country dancing, but that's so easy. My grandma did that. Scottish country dancing is just like

So there's a whole people like teach it, cause you can, my mom teaches it, she's an examiner, she does workshops, so there's a whole thing to do, but I don't know, just dancing, you better have a side job. It's like those people do community theater, I'm like dude, your acting didn't work out, stop. Unless you're an old lady. Any kind of theater like that really irks me.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Really, stop. I don't know, my boyfriend did a play this past winter, Million Dollar Quartet Christmas to be specific, and I just, I can't hang out with these theater people. They suck. They are so, oh God. Listen, all actors suck, theater people are the worst of them.
Starting point is 00:40:58 There's so much singing loud and skipping. And they're silly all the time. Adults are skipping. What are we doing here? I went to a party, as a director to this party, and it was like one of the worst nights of my life. I had to watch every single person in the cast would have been saying this ballad
Starting point is 00:41:14 in the middle of the party. We're like eating pizza and talking, and the director's like, everybody to the room at once, Jefferson, play the piano. And then made my boyfriend play the piano. And I'm like, why did I say BDD tonight? I was so sober watching everyone sing ballads, crazy. Why weren't you boozing?
Starting point is 00:41:33 Because I offered to be the Dee Dee and then the director's wife tried to get me to do a set. Oh no. In the middle of the room, she goes, get up there, just do it for us. For who? Suck my ass. I'm not doing this.
Starting point is 00:41:47 Can you imagine? Standing there, talking to my fucking lady in front of all these people, just like, mm-mm-mm. What the fuck in the hell you doing? I love when people are like, just go to your standup, like, hey, a lot of our standup is not built for this situation.

It ain't gonna be me. No, no, no, no, no, I'm not. You need somebody who's a nice clean comic with a small nose. Now I have to get on the nose jokes. What the hell, I left out for fuck's sakes.
Starting point is 00:42:12 It's like a double bulge. Wow, can you look in the fucking mirror as if this man is saying I have double bulge. Go sideways, look the other way, the other way.

It was like, he was out of bounds, somebody tackled him out of bounds, but he just kind of pushed him out of bounds. It wasn't a full tackle. And then the guy was holding on to him, not realizing he'd touched the line, so he's out.
Starting point is 00:56:18 And so the guy's like, all right, get off. I'm gonna try to throw the ball in. And the guy wouldn't get off, he just punched him. And the guy's like, all right, anyway.

Starting point is 01:02:34 I hate to break it, do you? It was never good deals. Well, it's much worse. There's, they're rebranded, they're starting over. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They should have started over a little up. Couple more numbers in there. It's so funny, I remember Ralphie May
Starting point is 01:02:46 bitching about the pay at Montreal, and I'm like, my check as a newcomer, I was like, this is great, most I've ever made. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the higher level people, you now, it's like, it's a festival. It's a festival, I get it, but it's, you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:00 Insulting is what it is. Whatever. The amount of show, 20 shows. Oh, they keep working, yeah. And I was like, And once you get there, you're like, chill, chill, let me just do some good shows. I'm like, I gotta sit for a second,
Starting point is 01:03:09 my god, my dog's gonna be three times this amount. What, do you have any travel tips? Do some Googling before you get there, I think. I like to do a little bit of checking out the restaurants, because if you get there in a panic and you're, I like to know where I'm going. I like to like map out the area first. Not a bad idea.
Starting point is 01:03:28 I never do it, but what you're saying is not a bad idea. I think it's good to just see, cause especially if you get a hostel, I stayed when I went back after I got the tattoo, I stayed in the red light district. In Amsterdam. Yeah, by myself in a hostel. And that was a big mistake.
Starting point is 01:03:44 I really wish I didn't do that. I didn't Google the area. I saved that Bulldog hostel, and he's a couple of them. Bulldog over, it's right next to the coffee shop? Yes, there's like one, I think there's two Bulldogs, and I booked the one that was in the right light district, and I was like, oh, fuck me. And it was just like, I couldn't even go for a walk.
Starting point is 01:04:01 I was watching all the men. Watching the men look at those women is just, it was. Also, can I tell you from the man's point of view, you try to just glance at a woman, and they're like, all couldn't even go for a walk. I was watching all the men. Watching the men look at those women is just, it was. Also, can I tell you from the man's point of view, you try to just glance at a woman and they're like, all right, come in, come in. You're like, I just wanna gawk. Let me gawk. Yeah, there's an open window.
Starting point is 01:04:13 So you gotta go across the canal and then look over. Yeah. And you're not seeing as much. You're in a glass. I wanna look at this. You wanna go that close? I mean, not quite, but yeah. That's insane.
Starting point is 01:04:22 You're in a glass window. Window shopping. We window shopped. I was just there, I was there this's insane. You're in a glass window. Window shopping. We window shopped. I was just there, I was there this last year. You stayed in it. It's walk through. I was so high and I was like so disgusted by it. I met with Jessica Michelle.
Starting point is 01:04:35 Huh? I met with Jessica Michelle. We would walk through there. Oh yeah. First time I went I think was with her. You guys did shows together? Yeah. Yeah, she did.
Starting point is 01:04:43 She went to a live sex show. So did I. Really. Yeah. Yeah, she did. She went to a live sex show. So did I. Really? Yeah. It was, not what you think. They see you in church pews. And it's a bunch of Americans. And then they come out and do like,
Starting point is 01:04:54 they have like a whole theme. And they came out and they were doing like a fryer tuck. The guy was just his fryer tuck. And the girl was like this maid. Firefuck from Sex and the City. I'll tell you what, fryer tuck looked exactly like fryer tuck. Season three, episode 16.
Starting point is 01:05:08 If that's real, wow. You're that big of a Sex and the City fan? Couldn't possibly be season four. It was either late three or early four, for sure. Are you actually Sex and the City fan? I'm watching it for the first time right now, so I have everything on my amount. And it brings women in to go,
Starting point is 01:05:24 this actually reminds me of the time Charlotte did this, and women were like, what? I can do exact quotes, because I just saw the episode, like I did it before. Look up Friar Fuck, and what episode it is. It's gotta be late three or early four. Friar, this is so hilarious. You actually know exactly what this is.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Samantha and the Priest. Yeah, click on that, let's see. Friar Fuck, yeah, for sure. Season four, episode one! Oh, God, that was too close, it was scaring me. My God. All right. Yeah, I watched it and it's not, it is gross.
Starting point is 01:05:57 He's wearing a condom, his t-shirt kept rolling up. He's wearing a condom? It was really gross. My sex show. It was, and they were doing it to, shot through the heart, but you're too lame. was, and they were doing it to, shot through the heart, but you're too lame. So, and they were doing it to the beat, and all these Americans and Canadians were in the pews,
Starting point is 01:06:11 and we just burst out laughing, because we're like, we're never gonna hear the song the same again. Oh yeah. And it was like, they were both ugly, I feel bad, but they were both hideous, and I'm like, nobody would ever have punched this in and looked for it. Like, no one was Googling whatever we saw, because it wasn't even sexual, it just became like, nobody would ever punch this in and look for it. Like no one was Googling whatever we saw.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Cause it wasn't even sexual. It just became like very performative. And I was like, ugh. Oh really? Yeah. Yeah, so when you look at amateur porn, then you're like, this is too amateur. I don't want this belly.
Starting point is 01:06:35 I can't do amateur porn. The sheets are not clean. The mattress is showing, there's a sock in the corner. I need a clean bedspread. Somebody found a porn where they were watching a special in the backdrop. I need a clean bedspread. I can't get into one. Somebody found a point where they were watching a special in the backdrop. They weren't watching. Are you serious? But it was just on and you could like kind of hear it.
Starting point is 01:06:50 Oh my God. That's good, that's good. Yeah, that was a YouTube special because Netflix would have blocked that. They would have been like, no way. Yeah, we can't have this. That's a good travel tip, do a little bit of Googling. A little bit of Googling, especially where you're staying.
Starting point is 01:07:05 I think that's the main one. Because you want to, you know, because it'll say homeless people, and I stayed in the Tenderloin once, first time in San Francisco, and I didn't know that there'd be a man shitting right in front of my eyes the second I walked out of my hotel room.
Starting point is 01:07:16 And I'm like, you know what, things like that I wish I knew. Yeah, I went to Havana with Bobby Kelly, and I was trying to say the less touristy part. I was like, oh, let's get a better feel, and he Googled it, and it was like, no, yeah. Well, they use, you read those reviews.
Starting point is 01:07:28 You're like, this is a, that's it. That's it. That's probably pretty smart. All right. And I try the local stuff. Try and do, you know, also ask. I love asking people there. People who are cool, cool bartenders, not a few on the street.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Ask them what, like what's, what do you do? What's a cool bar you go to? What's the restaurant you go to? What's a good restaurant you go to? That's how you find, I think, the best spots. Yeah, you gotta phrase these things right too. Because Nick Youssef had a thing back when he was drinking. You know Nick? Not personally.
Starting point is 01:07:54 Okay, but he was drinking. And he'd go, hey, you're on the road. You're like, what's a cool bar? And then they give you a version of what they think you'll think a cool bar is. Which is like probably at nightclub, whatever they want. So like, how do you get through to them what I want?
Starting point is 01:08:08 So Nick goes, hey, where's the bar where people, not gay, but where guys with mustaches go? Okay, okay. And he goes, oh, okay, you want this bar. Yeah, that's what I'm looking for. It's a regular hipster bar. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, ask locals what's cool around here.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Ask locals, yeah. Like where they eat. Yeah, right. Where's cool around here. Like where they eat. Where you eat, where you drink. Alright, that's pretty good. The special again is, hold on, because I've already said it twice now. I don't think you said it once. I already did it. Filth Queen.
Starting point is 01:08:42 June 24th on Netflix. No, it's already out. It's out. Go watch it on Netflix. It's out today? What's the 24th, Tuesday? Yes. It's out today. It's out today, go watch my special!
Starting point is 01:08:53 That's why we held this episode. That's why we held this episode. Yay, thank you for holding it. Please go watch it. Yeah, I'm excited for it. You're fucking hilarious. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me on your storytelling show.
Starting point is 01:09:02 I hope that gets- One of the best LA comics going right now. Thank you for having me on your storytelling show. I hope that gets. One of the best LA comics going right now. Thank you. Yeah. You know, you were there, the worst that I ever had at the store. I don't remember this, it was years ago when Adam was still the booker.
Starting point is 01:09:14 I was showcasing and I bombed so bad. And you, I think you did that. You took my hand and you went, yikes. It was so bad. I am a go right at it and not dance around a guy. Oh no, no, I wouldn't have wanted to. And then that night I got rear-ended on the way home. I was so pissed after bombing my tits off.
Starting point is 01:09:31 But I'll never forget that you were just like, yikes. I think if I remember right, it's tough. I believed you enough. You were always funny. It was just. I was leaving enough to go, wow, that was bad. Yeah, it was bad. If I didn't, it'd be like, nice to meet you.
Starting point is 01:09:43 No, no, it was, but it's also embarrassing to do in front of the comments that you respect, you're like, god damn it. Like anybody else is doing it, if Bobby, leave Bobby, I'm gonna be like, no, I'm kidding. It's so bad to bomb in front of someone you look up to. I was more upset that you saw that than the booker. I was like, I'm actually mortified right now.
Starting point is 01:09:59 And then I always think that you remembered that, thank god you remember that. But I'm like, I always think of that, I bombed in front of Nick Kroll the first time he ever saw me and he forgot about it. I brought it up to him, he's like, I don't know what you're'm like, I always think of that, like, I always, I bombed in front of Nick Kroll the first time he ever saw me and he forgot about it. I brought it up to him, he's like, I don't know what you're talking about, I was like, think, come on, because it was,
Starting point is 01:10:09 it was rough. It was someone else actually. So it's nice to know that. How long you been in LA? 11 years. I guess I met you right when you kind of moved, because I had just left. I think you left and I was like doing,
Starting point is 01:10:21 I was also doing more alt stuff. Did I know you in Toronto? I probably saw you once at, I came and did some festival. Yeah, maybe that. Yeah, or a con bar or something. Yeah, maybe I met you at something like that. Yeah, interesting, because I remember you got there
Starting point is 01:10:32 and it was like, there was even a vibe around you. Like Steph's funny. Like, oh cool, new person. New person that's actually funny. Then Bob, like, I'm like, yeah okay. Whoever said that wants to fuck that nose, hello. You recovered. Phil Queen's on Netflix right. Hello, okay. You're recovered. Filth Queen's on Netflix right now everybody.

Starting point is 01:11:10 I had one once a staff where it was like here. I was like here right here I was playing pool with with Rogan and he I don't I didn't know what they were. Yeah, he gave it to me That's why he wouldn't let me the green if it was in the butt, but this is on my leg And we were playing pool and I was limping goes what are you limping? He came to me. That's why he wouldn't let me in the green. If it was in the butt maybe, but this was on my leg. And we were playing pool and I was limping. He goes, what are you limping? And I was like, I got like a mosquito bite or something. He's like, what?
Starting point is 01:11:29 What's a mosquito, why are you limping a mosquito bite? Or not a mosquito, but a spider bite. And he was like, let me see it. And he goes, bro, that's, you gotta go to the hospital right now. How long you had that? And I was like, couple weeks ago, dude, that's gonna get, what's it called?

Starting point is 01:12:36 It's just like somebody wanted a cool trip and it's fun to go along with them. Damn, it really reminded me of the North. I took a long trip and I mean I could do my own episode of this after Edinburgh one year. Was it the Jew one? Nope, it was the first time I went to Edinburgh. Took a trip into the Highlands, it's a magical place.
Starting point is 01:12:58 Where she was, it's a magical place. And then north of there. Do I have a Garvault? Damn. I had... Nope, it's not hanging up. Because I do get postcards from people. I had one from the Garvault Hotel,
Starting point is 01:13:17 the most remote hotel in the UK mainland. And I went to find it, and it drove and drove and drove and drove, and you see it, you finally see it it's on one lane street I'm okay I like to bleep the names of places so that doesn't get overrun with tourists just trying to like step in somebody's find your own place I didn't find out by someone telling me I just like chanced upon it I made my own journey so make your own but I will tell you about the ones that are super difficult to find which aren't gonna get overrun because I'll just say you want there's nothing worse than going to a place and
Starting point is 01:13:47 coming back a year later like, I can't bring a friend and go, uh, it's like out of parking lot now and it's full. It sucks. I'm not gonna be part of that. Garver Hotel you gotta find. I mean it's hours drive from the nearest city and you finally come over a hill and you see it. It's still like a 30 minute drive. It's so crazy remote and I got there and pulled in. There's a hotel area, no one's in it, so then I walked to the bar next door. Everyone just stopped and stared at me like it was Blues Brothers
Starting point is 01:14:20 when they walked into the black room. And I was like, hello, and then they heard the accent, they were just like, what? I was like, do you know if anybody's at the hotel next door? And the bartender's like, it's my hotel. And I was like, oh, okay. It was just, ah, they were staring at me.
Starting point is 01:14:39 I mean, do you ever see Wicker Man? I had not, thankfully, or I would've frightened out of my mind. And so I went, I was see Wicker Man? I had not, thankfully, or I would have frightened out of my mind. And so I went, I was like, yeah, so, can I get a room? And he goes, we're actually all full. And I was like, no, really? He goes, there's four rooms,
Starting point is 01:14:56 and they're all taken by these guys. And they were like, oh, hi, where you from? I was like, I'm from America. They're like, what are you doing out here? I was like, I was at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. And they're like, oh my God, that's so cool. I was like, oh yeah. I was like, okay.
Starting point is 01:15:08 And I was ready to sleep in my car. It was cold up there, but I, there's nowhere else to go, but I could. And it's not like I didn't do it when I used to cut class. Sleep in the car for a while to piss out the window, get a nice piss, and then back in. I was like, okay. And then one guy's like, oh, hold on. I have an RV. I have a camper piss and then back in. I was like okay, and then one guy's like,
Starting point is 01:15:25 oh hold on, I have an RV, I have a camper. I can sleep in there, you can take that room. He's like, what? He goes, yeah, we're all friends, we're just here on a fishing trip. They're like these guys in their 60s. But you know, I've got a camper, I can sleep in that, take the room for the night.
Starting point is 01:15:40 And I did, and then we all had dinner together. He was like, do you want lamb? I didn't know any of this. Because do you want lamb or do you want whatever? And I'm like, I mean, lamb. And then they make you a meal. There's nowhere else to eat. And then there's breakfast too.
Starting point is 01:15:52 And these guys all went, it was so cool. And they had these bugs that would just devour you. Chiggers, right? Commonly referred to in other words, chiggers. Harvest mites up there. Also known as berry bugs, but they're terrible and they burrow. Chiggers, harvest mites up there.

It's edited by Alan Caffey and helped along by Chris and Neyana. And I wanna say we had a fucking blast when I was there last time. We went out to Franklin's, we did a line at Franklin's,
Starting point is 01:18:40 a YMH outing. I've never had this as a company outing in so many fucking years. We all went out and got blasted in line beforehand. What a fucking fun time. We brought way too many Trulies or beers or whatever and we just like started handing them out so we were the hero of the line.
Starting point is 01:18:55 And we were lit up by the time we got in there. I don't know what happened, it's summertime or too many barbecue shops open, but the line at Franklin's is no longer undoable. I used to have to trade TaskRabbit to get in or go myself at like 8 a.m., wait for three hours by myself. Sometimes in the rain. And we got beers and we got fuckin' lit up
Starting point is 01:19:18 and they ate a shitload of meat. Just say what you want, Franklin's is amazing. You can say whatever the fuck you want, Franklin's is amazing. I'm not doing that comparison thing, but I will tell you, Franklin's está amacio. Oh yeah, Mont Blanc. I am going to read some of these. So guys, I just want to give it up one time. Show some pictures from our fucking outing.
Starting point is 01:19:44 It was a blast. Then we went swimming in a fucking swimming hole. Got in trouble for drinking where we shouldn't have with a different crew. That was not YMH. We definitely did not get in trouble as a YMH staff for drinking in public when we didn't. So allegedly I dropped the YMH staff,
Starting point is 01:20:02 found another staff of a neighboring place, then we got in trouble. And then YMH came back in and we did not do anything. Oh no, the manager was there. Fuck off. Yeah. We got almost pretty much thrown out. Um, Hey, I already just finished the Tartier Mont Blanc, a 174 kilometer hike through France, Italy and Switzerland. Wait, what?
