Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Excited
- 0:03Speaker 1: to be with you. A lot is happening and not happening,
- 0:08Speaker 1: as always. I saw The Many Saints of Newark. Have
- 0:13Speaker 1: you seen that movie yet?
- 0:14Speaker 2: I haven't seen it yet.
- 0:15Speaker 1: This is weird. And I don't want to talk about
- 0:19Speaker 1: this because I don't want people to get the wrong idea.
- 0:21Speaker 1: I know that a lot of people are... Obviously, I
- 0:24Speaker 1: love Joey Diaz, who's in the movie. And I love
- 0:27Speaker 1: a lot of... the people that are in the movie, right?
- 0:31Speaker 1: I mean, The Sopranos is an epic show. I don't...
- 0:36Speaker 1: It's weird the direction they took, to me. I think
- 0:40Speaker 1: it's odd. It's strange to me to do a prequel
- 0:49Speaker 1: where a huge element of the character that was not
- 0:55Speaker 1: at all in the show is brought out. That's weird
- 0:59Speaker 1: to me. The prequel to the many states of Newark
- 1:03Speaker 1: is about how Tony Soprano like got into the mafia
- 1:06Speaker 1: and the entire movie. I don't know if you know this,
- 1:10Speaker 1: but is literally, and this is a little fucking why
- 1:14Speaker 1: he was smiling. The entire movie is Tony getting into
- 1:20Speaker 1: the mafia because he's gay and he's trying to hide
- 1:26Speaker 1: his sexuality and from other people, and he feels the
- 1:31Speaker 1: most effective way to do that. And there are sex
- 1:35Speaker 1: scenes where Tony Soprano is having sex with men in
- 1:41Speaker 1: this movie as the receptive partner. He's taking it in
- 1:46Speaker 1: the movie. And people were shocked at this. The whole
- 1:50Speaker 1: crux of the movie is that Tony's in an interracial
- 1:55Speaker 1: relationship in Newark with a man. This is odd to
- 2:00Speaker 1: me because in The Sopranos, there was never a thought that, listen,
- 2:07Speaker 1: I'm a gay guy. I think gay cinema is great.
- 2:09Speaker 1: But there was never a thought that Tony was gay.
- 2:13Speaker 1: So to me, to make his character gay and give
- 2:17Speaker 1: him this story arc of having a love interest is very,
- 2:21Speaker 1: very strange. And even if you did all of that,
- 2:27Speaker 1: The visceral nature of a lot of these sex scenes.
- 2:32Speaker 1: I mean, it's really aggressive. It's aggressive. But this is
- 2:38Speaker 1: what Hollywood has decided to do. And I'm emailing you right...
- 2:43Speaker 1: There's a scene... Because you know that I was asked
- 2:48Speaker 1: to audition for this. Oh, you did? I was asked
- 2:50Speaker 1: to audition for this. So I got the script. And...
- 2:55Speaker 1: There is a scene that me and you are going
- 2:57Speaker 1: to read from The Many Saints of Newark.
- 3:00Speaker 2: Okay.
- 3:00Speaker 1: And I, again, I worry, I worry that, you know, again,
- 3:07Speaker 1: I don't want to offend anyone that really enjoyed the picture,
- 3:11Speaker 1: but I think that it's worth stating how different this
- 3:16Speaker 1: is than most of what we've come to expect from
- 3:21Speaker 1: the David Chase movie. And The Sopranos.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Do you have it?
- 3:24Speaker 1: Did you get it?
- 3:25Speaker 2: I'm refreshing. There it goes.
- 3:29Speaker 1: Okay, so this is a scene from The Many Saints
- 3:35Speaker 1: of Newark. And again, I'm... So here, don't read it.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Read it as you do it. That's what a real
- 3:41Speaker 1: actor does. Okay?
- 3:42Speaker 2: Okay, who am I?
- 3:44Speaker 1: You're African American man. Now, I want you to start...
- 3:49Speaker 1: I want you to start... Describe the scene up top.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Okay, you want me to be the narrator?
- 3:56Speaker 1: Yes. Okay.
- 3:57Speaker 3: Tony, a young, sexually confused man, explores gender and sexuality
- 4:01Speaker 3: with older men in the mafia.
- 4:03Speaker 1: This is weird, right? I mean, let's be honest. Is
- 4:09Speaker 1: this not weird? This is not what I thought the
- 4:15Speaker 1: movie was going to be about. And listen, I don't
- 4:17Speaker 1: do a good Tony Soprano impression. That's not what I'm
- 4:19Speaker 1: trying to do here. What I'm trying to do is
- 4:22Speaker 1: act and breathe life into the scene. Okay, so let's start.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Okay.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Tony is sitting on a bench by the basketball court.
- 4:30Speaker 3: He notices a young African-American man playing basketball shirtless. Tony
- 4:34Speaker 3: is shy at first, but brings to speak to him.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Well, I don't know why that was written like that. Hey,
- 4:43Speaker 1: what are you doing?
- 4:45Speaker 2: Okay, so I'm African-American, right?
- 4:47Speaker 1: You're the man. Now, Tony's at a basketball court. Yeah, yeah.
- 4:51Speaker 1: He's watching an African-American man play basketball shirtless. And Tony
- 4:55Speaker 1: is sitting there. And I think in the movie he's
- 4:57Speaker 1: eating an ice cream cone seductively. But that was added later. Again,
- 5:04Speaker 1: this is the many saints of Newark. This is true.
- 5:09Speaker 1: I'm only laughing because I'm stunned. Then they went in
- 5:16Speaker 1: this direction. Okay. Tony is shy at first, but speaks
- 5:20Speaker 1: to him. Hey, what are you doing?
- 5:22Speaker 2: I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching you like
- 5:26Speaker 2: what you see?
- 5:26Speaker 1: Hey, what you're doing right now with the black hands
- 5:29Speaker 1: and stuff? It's not necessary. Okay. You know what I mean? Okay.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Do you know what you just did? You're like, I'm
- 5:34Speaker 1: playing ball. Black people don't talk like that. Okay. Do
- 5:37Speaker 1: you see what you did when you were going like this?
- 5:39Speaker 2: It was like the 70s. I'm trying to think of
- 5:40Speaker 2: how they'd play it.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Maybe it's like, it's groovy. I think you just, really
- 5:45Speaker 1: just respect the work. Okay. Okay. I don't think we
- 5:49Speaker 1: need to start doing a dance. Okay. Okay. Hey, what
- 5:52Speaker 1: are you doing?
- 5:53Speaker 2: I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching you like
- 5:56Speaker 2: what you see?
- 5:57Speaker 1: Okay. It's, I'm playing ball. What are you doing? Watching?
- 6:01Speaker 1: You like what you see? Watching?
- 6:02Speaker 2: You like what you see?
- 6:05Speaker 1: Maybe I do. Maybe I do. Let me ask you something.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Do yous have bigger dicks than us? You know, like,
- 6:14Speaker 1: that's what people say.
- 6:16Speaker 2: Only one way to find out.
- 6:18Speaker 1: You guys must have real brajoles over there, where you
- 6:21Speaker 1: come from. I'm Italian. I'm in the mafia. Or at
- 6:24Speaker 1: least I will be. But I can't tell anyone that I'm,
- 6:27Speaker 1: you know, into men.
- 6:29Speaker 2: I know what that's like.
- 6:31Speaker 1: You do?
- 6:32Speaker 3: My pastor says that gay people go to hell. He
- 6:35Speaker 3: calls them $ 3 bills.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Your church, that's where they do the screaming and everything. Hey,
- 6:40Speaker 1: you think anyone is there right now? Maybe we could
- 6:43Speaker 1: go over there.
- 6:45Speaker 2: You want to see my church?
- 6:47Speaker 1: I want to see you. Tony pulls a man close
- 6:49Speaker 1: to him and they begin making out. Tony is grabbing
- 6:52Speaker 1: his crotch. The man seems uncomfortable with all the people around.
- 6:56Speaker 2: Not here. We can have sex in my church.
- 6:59Speaker 1: So this is crazy to me. Then they go have
- 7:04Speaker 1: sex in a church where Tony is getting it in
- 7:08Speaker 1: the ass. And it's crazy.
- 7:11Speaker 2: So is there like a gospel choir and everything, but
- 7:13Speaker 2: they're in the back?
- 7:14Speaker 1: No, it's an empty church.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Okay.
- 7:16Speaker 1: And he's just like pounding Tony. And then Tony says,
- 7:20Speaker 1: I don't know if I want you. This is a
- 7:22Speaker 1: quote for the movie. Tony goes, I don't know if
- 7:23Speaker 1: I want you to explode in me, but I also
- 7:26Speaker 1: want to taste you. And then the guy goes, well,
- 7:30Speaker 1: have you heard of felching? And Tony goes, no, what's that?
- 7:32Speaker 1: And the guy goes, that's where I would come inside
- 7:33Speaker 1: of you and then suck it out with a straw
- 7:35Speaker 1: or something and then spit it back in your mouth.
- 7:37Speaker 1: All I'm saying is this is very surprising to me.
- 7:41Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Again, go see the film, make
- 7:45Speaker 1: your own decisions. It's very surprising that they went in
- 7:48Speaker 1: this direction. Personally. You know? I mean, the whole thing.
- 7:55Speaker 1: When we meet Carmella, like, it's crazy. Because he's, like,
- 8:01Speaker 1: having sex with guys. It's weird. Anyway. That's just putting it.
- 8:08Speaker 1: That's just my two cents. I don't want to make
- 8:11Speaker 1: anyone mad.
- 8:12Speaker 2: No, and Joey Diaz is in this. I heard it's good.
- 8:14Speaker 1: James Damore got mad at me. That guy, you know
- 8:16Speaker 1: that guy from Google?
- 8:17Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:19Speaker 1: He's kind of, has Marfan syndrome, I think. He's like,
- 8:21Speaker 1: he's really like, I don't know, he's like very lanky.
- 8:24Speaker 1: And he's autistic. He says he's autistic. He says that
- 8:27Speaker 1: he sees the world differently. He got angry with me
- 8:29Speaker 1: because I criticized his digital art. And this is the
- 8:32Speaker 1: guy that wrote the memo at Google. He wrote a
- 8:35Speaker 1: memo where he was basically like, I think women should
- 8:38Speaker 1: have bags around their heads and get taken out into
- 8:41Speaker 1: the parking lot. And he said that there's, you know, whatever.
- 8:46Speaker 1: So he made this AI art. It's very bad. So
- 8:49Speaker 1: I just wrote, these are all bad. I quote tweeted it.
- 8:52Speaker 1: And then he used that thing of me where I
- 8:54Speaker 1: have sunburn, and he goes, AI is a matter of inputs.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Like for this foul one, all I put was gay
- 9:01Speaker 1: Chris Farley. And I have a horrible sunburn. I never
- 9:04Speaker 1: should have put that photo out. But sometimes you've got
- 9:06Speaker 1: to put a photo out where you look the worst
- 9:08Speaker 1: so that it can always be the photo people use.
- 9:10Speaker 1: But again, that photo still makes more sense than his
- 9:13Speaker 1: kind of deeply satanic, very strange AI art that he did.
- 9:20Speaker 1: It's like odd. It's like demons and hell. And so
- 9:23Speaker 1: I don't know what the inputs he put in, but again,
- 9:26Speaker 1: people get very sensitive. All these, a lot of these
- 9:29Speaker 1: tech pros, which weird, they're like kind of like goth
- 9:32Speaker 1: theater blanks. And I don't know what, even though they're
- 9:38Speaker 1: like tech bros, they're like, I don't, you know what
- 9:40Speaker 1: I mean? They're like weird nerd. And again, they got,
- 9:44Speaker 1: he was angry at me. And I defended him when
- 9:48Speaker 1: he wrote that memo saying that women wanted to get
- 9:51Speaker 1: bags over their heads and take it out into the
- 9:52Speaker 1: parking lot at Google. So I don't understand what's the problem.
- 9:56Speaker 1: But he's very sensitive. These people are very sensitive.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Okay.
- 9:59Speaker 1: And he lives in Austin. so we know he's one
- 10:00Speaker 1: of the worst people in the world. But we still
- 10:04Speaker 1: support him. And we don't think it's fair that he
- 10:07Speaker 1: was fired from Google for saying that women like to
- 10:09Speaker 1: have garbage bags put over them and then put in
- 10:12Speaker 1: a van. Um, he got angry with me. The people
- 10:15Speaker 1: don't like objective reality anymore. When you say like, like
- 10:18Speaker 1: the way he says, like men and women have different,
- 10:21Speaker 1: they have different aptitudes. It's also like, some things are bad.
- 10:25Speaker 1: That AI is art is bad.
- 10:27Speaker 2: It's bad.
- 10:27Speaker 1: That little Nas X version of Jolene is bad. It's
- 10:31Speaker 1: not good. He's speaking. He's going, Jolene. And of course,
- 10:35Speaker 1: Dolly Parton got a tweet like, I just am honored
- 10:38Speaker 1: and I love him and blah, blah, blah. Because you
- 10:41Speaker 1: can't be honest because the appeal of Lil Nas X
- 10:46Speaker 1: is in the package. It's in, there's a good looking
- 10:49Speaker 1: black gay guy and he has, you know, there's a
- 10:53Speaker 1: flair about him. He knows what he's doing, but the
- 10:55Speaker 1: actual vocals are not good. And for anyone to pretend
- 10:59Speaker 1: they're good, And then the Old Town Road song was
- 11:01Speaker 1: kind of a troll that became huge.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Yes.
- 11:05Speaker 1: And he's smart. And he knows what to do. He says, look,
- 11:08Speaker 1: I'm fucking Satan this week, and next week I'm pregnant.
- 11:11Speaker 1: But that's replacing the music. Right. See, people should realize that.
- 11:16Speaker 1: That's not in addition to the music. Like, Lady Gaga's talented,
- 11:21Speaker 1: and then she does a lot of that stuff in
- 11:22Speaker 1: addition to the music. This is completely... Like, instead of
- 11:27Speaker 1: the music, we're going to do this. I'm going to,
- 11:30Speaker 1: you know, take a photo of myself or have a
- 11:32Speaker 1: CGI photo of myself made where I have a baby.
- 11:35Speaker 1: And this is like, you know, but again, to say
- 11:38Speaker 1: like this isn't good, people get very angry or to
- 11:41Speaker 1: point out the AI art and go, hey, man, this
- 11:43Speaker 1: is not good. It's objectively terrible. I'm sure you're a
- 11:48Speaker 1: lovely person, but this art is very, very bad. And
- 11:51Speaker 1: why are you why do you care? You just put
- 11:55Speaker 1: inputs into a computer and then it made it. Why
- 11:58Speaker 1: do you give a shit? Maybe I'm insulting the AI.
- 12:01Speaker 1: It may not be you. But, you know, people don't
- 12:06Speaker 1: like the truth. It's unfortunate. You know, it's like a
- 12:10Speaker 1: lot of people are not going to like to hear
- 12:11Speaker 1: that Tony Soprano is a gay man. But this is
- 12:15Speaker 1: what it is. I love SimpliSafe. I'm telling you right now,
- 12:20Speaker 1: you need them. They launched two new wireless outdoor security cameras.

- 15:36Speaker 1: showed me from the show, what is it called, The
- 15:39Speaker 1: United States of Al?
- 15:40Speaker 2: That's correct, yeah.
- 15:41Speaker 1: This show, United States of Al, rewrites season two, premiere,
- 15:46Speaker 1: to offer powerful moving reaction to situation in Afghanistan. By
- 15:50Speaker 1: the way, the title of that article tells you everything
- 15:52Speaker 1: you want to know, and immediately you know it was
- 15:56Speaker 1: the wrong move. Rewrites season two premiere to offer powerful
- 16:01Speaker 1: moving reaction to situation in Afghanistan. Is this guy Afghani?
- 16:06Speaker 2: He's Indian and he's from South Africa.
- 16:08Speaker 1: She's nothing to do with Afghanistan.
- 16:09Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's playing an Afghani interpreter in the show.
- 16:13Speaker 1: So he was always an Afghani interpreter in the United
- 16:15Speaker 1: States of Al?
- 16:16Speaker 2: Yes.
- 16:17Speaker 1: He was always, well, I guess.
- 16:18Speaker 3: And his best friend is a Marine who fought in
- 16:20Speaker 3: Afghanistan and now they're here and they're, you know.
- 16:23Speaker 1: Oh, well, then I guess they have to do something.
- 16:25Speaker 2: But he's not Afghani in real life.
- 16:27Speaker 1: Understood. But I mean, in the show, he's an Afghani interpreter.
- 16:31Speaker 2: I believe so, yeah.
- 16:32Speaker 1: And his friend's a Marine. You wonder if the writers
- 16:34Speaker 1: got a tip that this was going to happen. Do
- 16:38Speaker 1: you think the United States of Al knew before the
- 16:40Speaker 1: State Department that the Taliban was about to take over?
- 16:44Speaker 1: Because it does feel like the United States of Al
- 16:46Speaker 1: now did have to... Like, I do feel they were
- 16:48Speaker 1: in the unenviable position of having to address this.
- 16:52Speaker 2: It feels that way.
- 16:53Speaker 1: It feels like they had... I had no idea he
- 16:54Speaker 1: was an Afghani interpreter. What show is this? Like, why
- 16:59Speaker 1: would this be a show? And so the United States
- 17:02Speaker 1: of Al is about apparently an Afghani interpreter. Mm-hmm. and
- 17:07Speaker 1: his Marine best friend.
- 17:09Speaker 2: That's right.
- 17:10Speaker 1: That are what? Buds?
- 17:11Speaker 2: They're like buddies, yeah.
- 17:12Speaker 1: They're buddies. And they live together?
- 17:14Speaker 2: I think.
- 17:15Speaker 1: In the same town?
- 17:16Speaker 2: Here it is.
- 17:16Speaker 3: A Marine combat veteran struggling to readjust to civilian life
- 17:20Speaker 3: in Ohio.
- 17:21Speaker 2: And then Awal Mir, a.k.a.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Al, the interpreter who served with his unit in Afghanistan,
- 17:26Speaker 3: has just arrived to start a new life in America.
- 17:28Speaker 2: So it's just their friendship.
- 17:30Speaker 1: So it's an Afghani interpreter and a Marine. They come
- 17:34Speaker 1: back to the U.S. Hilarity ensues. Now, the United States
- 17:39Speaker 1: of Al, of course, they have to do something. They
- 17:42Speaker 1: can't ignore it. They have to do something. I'm sympathetic
- 17:46Speaker 1: to this more than I thought I would be. It
- 17:48Speaker 1: does seem to be the... Also, don't make a very
- 17:52Speaker 1: bad show like this in the first place. It's such
- 17:54Speaker 1: a bad show. It's a Marine and an Afghani interpreter
- 17:59Speaker 1: having beers like the Afghanistan war was worth it. That's
- 18:05Speaker 1: what the premise of the show is.
- 18:06Speaker 2: Because it brought them together.
- 18:08Speaker 1: It's a brotherhood. So what if a lot of people
- 18:10Speaker 1: are dead? Doesn't matter. That's the premise of the show.
- 18:14Speaker 1: This is what Hollywood likes to do. They like to
- 18:17Speaker 1: make things where they go. It's kind of a wash,
- 18:19Speaker 1: isn't it? I mean, Al and his buddy would have
- 18:21Speaker 1: never been brought together if we didn't have the Afghanistan war.
- 18:27Speaker 1: So it's an odd way to market a program, but
- 18:30Speaker 1: they love this shit. Oh, yeah. This is how they
- 18:33Speaker 1: kind of smooth over all these mistakes. And by mistakes,
- 18:36Speaker 1: I don't mean mistakes. I mean, like, you know, the
- 18:39Speaker 1: bloodlust empire. I mean, to call it a mistake, you know,
- 18:42Speaker 1: mistake is like, where's the car keys? Not like, oh,
- 18:45Speaker 1: we're going to Afghanistan to pay off pedophiles. and steal
- 18:49Speaker 1: lithium ion. That's not really a mistake. But the way
- 18:52Speaker 1: at the end of all that to kind of make
- 18:53Speaker 1: it like, hey, sorry, they do these cutesy little shows
- 18:58Speaker 1: where people become friends with each other from this 20
- 19:03Speaker 1: year long war that killed people for absolutely no reason.
- 19:10Speaker 1: But the United States of Al. And so this is
- 19:14Speaker 1: the scene where Al, I guess, realizes that the Taliban.
- 19:20Speaker 3: This is the promo for the upcoming episode. It's the
- 19:23Speaker 3: big Afghanistan episode.
- 19:24Speaker 1: It's the big one. Yeah, yeah. This is the one
- 19:27Speaker 1: because the fans of the United States of Al, I
- 19:29Speaker 1: don't know who they are. I imagine they're older white
- 19:32Speaker 1: people with dementia is not... It's setting in. It hasn't
- 19:38Speaker 1: fully ravaged their brain, but it's setting in. And they're like,
- 19:42Speaker 1: we like the United States of Al. and it's all
- 19:45Speaker 1: cause that CBS is crowd. They're old people. They're elderly
- 19:49Speaker 1: people that watch the United States of Al and it
- 19:52Speaker 1: explains to them why we went to war in Afghanistan. Uh,
- 19:57Speaker 1: through the TV. And they sit there and they let
- 20:00Speaker 1: mashed potatoes dribble out of their mouths while they stare
- 20:04Speaker 1: at this. So now let's play this for everyone. This
- 20:07Speaker 1: is the Afghanistan episode from the United States of Al. Riley.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Is it confirmed? The Taliban took Herat. Kabul might be next.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Al's family's there. We're at the airport. Although there's so
- 20:21Speaker 1: many people, I don't.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Think I can do this.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Stop this for a minute. This is... So Al's family
- 20:31Speaker 1: is still in Afghanistan. He's at during this scene. Do
- 20:38Speaker 1: you like, do you quit when they ask you to
- 20:41Speaker 1: do this? When they say, do you mind taking out
- 20:45Speaker 1: a phone? And then you're going to on speakerphone, pretend
- 20:49Speaker 1: you're talking to someone desperately trying to get out of Afghanistan.
- 20:54Speaker 1: Like at this point, do you think of choosing another career?
- 20:58Speaker 1: there's always got to be a moment in your career.
- 21:01Speaker 1: Like I have it all the, every day, every minute,
- 21:03Speaker 1: but you got to imagine that when you're doing this,
- 21:06Speaker 1: it's so offensive on so many levels. And it's, first
- 21:12Speaker 1: of all, When painful things happen, of course, one tries
- 21:16Speaker 1: to make them into art forever, right? But this is, like, immediately,
- 21:21Speaker 1: this is happening. And it's also happening in the most
- 21:24Speaker 1: grotesque way imaginable. Like, we're rewriting the season premiere so
- 21:29Speaker 1: that we can deliver a powerful, moving message from our
- 21:33Speaker 1: sitcom on CBS. Play the rest of this, but it's crazy...
- 21:39Speaker 1: It's crazy. They're doing a scene where I guess his
- 21:42Speaker 1: family member going, I don't know if I can do this.
- 21:46Speaker 1: And Al is trying to talk them through it. Play
- 21:50Speaker 1: it from the beginning again, please. And I won't interrupt. Riley.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Is it confirmed? The Taliban took Herat. Kabul might be next.
- 21:58Speaker 1: Al's family's there. We're at the airport. Although there's so
- 22:02Speaker 1: many people.
- 22:03Speaker 2: I don't think I can do this.
- 22:04Speaker 1: Listen to me.
- 22:07Speaker 2: I am right there with you.
- 22:08Speaker 1: But he's not. But hold on. But Al is in America.
- 22:14Speaker 2: That's right.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Now, could, does CBS include any of the perspective of
- 22:25Speaker 1: the Taliban in this? Like, does the Taliban get to
- 22:30Speaker 1: have any say at all Or is this just some
- 22:37Speaker 1: type of propaganda vehicle for the US? Because I think
- 22:45Speaker 1: the Taliban have something to say as well, that I
- 22:48Speaker 1: would like to see their opinion in a CBS sitcom
- 22:55Speaker 1: as well. If we could fictionalize the Taliban and what
- 23:01Speaker 1: they want out of this whole thing. Well, when is
- 23:06Speaker 1: it on? When can you watch The United States of Owl?
- 23:09Speaker 3: I think it's coming out sometime this week. It says
- 23:12Speaker 3: the premiere's dropping really soon.
- 23:15Speaker 2: Because I really want to see this.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Well, it's exciting.
- 23:18Speaker 3: And the Indian actors seem to have locked his account
- 23:22Speaker 3: upon the release of this promo.
- 23:24Speaker 1: Well, it's not the actors' fault. They're saying the words that...
- 23:30Speaker 1: They were written on the page.
- 23:32Speaker 3: I think people are mad that he's Indian, though, and
- 23:34Speaker 3: he's doing an Afghani accent.
- 23:36Speaker 1: In the whole thing. They're not even mad at the
- 23:39Speaker 1: right things. What they should be mad at is that, A,
- 23:42Speaker 1: the show exists. Right. B, CBS exists. They're not even
- 23:46Speaker 1: mad at the, you know, they should, I like that.
- 23:51Speaker 1: The Taliban just took Iraq. Kabul could be next. Al
- 23:55Speaker 1: has family there.
- 23:57Speaker 3: Here's a real synopsis of an episode that came out
- 24:01Speaker 3: this year al greets riley's daughter hazel and introduces himself
- 24:06Speaker 3: as her godfather on a video call with his mother
- 24:08Speaker 3: al is berated for wearing shorts as it against his
- 24:10Speaker 3: religion as a muslim to do the following day alan
- 24:12Speaker 3: riley go the dmv where al becomes nervous after seeing
- 24:15Speaker 3: that his female driving instructor paula is also wearing shorts
- 24:18Speaker 3: and as a result fails his driving test wanting to
- 24:20Speaker 3: adjust to american social norms al talks with riley art
- 24:23Speaker 3: and an offended lizzie to sort things out deciding to
- 24:26Speaker 3: to avoid forcing his religious double standards on other people
- 24:29Speaker 3: In his following visits to the DMV with Paula as
- 24:31Speaker 3: his driving instructor, Al overcomes his issues by acknowledging both
- 24:34Speaker 3: Paula and himself are wearing shorts, only to become nervous
- 24:37Speaker 3: once again after stopping at a traffic light next to
- 24:40Speaker 3: a charity car wash with bikini-clad women.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Hmm, okay.
- 24:45Speaker 1: Why are we doing this? Why do we need to
- 24:49Speaker 1: do this? Why are we trying to do this? I'm
- 24:54Speaker 1: very curious as to why CBS is doing this. Like,
- 24:59Speaker 1: this is a guy who's going to have to, like,
- 25:02Speaker 1: some of his beliefs and views seem a little antiquated.
- 25:06Speaker 1: And CBS is now trying to figure out, like, funny
- 25:09Speaker 1: situations to put him in. I mean, who's this for?
- 25:16Speaker 1: I guess this is for young Muslims that love CBS.
- 25:20Speaker 2: I suppose so.
- 25:21Speaker 1: Is that what it's about? That are also wrestling with
- 25:24Speaker 1: some of these ideas? And they need to... Al goes
- 25:30Speaker 1: to a party with Nelk and gets nervous when the
- 25:33Speaker 1: women start taking jello shots in their pussy. He doesn't
- 25:38Speaker 1: know what to do. He doesn't know how to square
- 25:40Speaker 1: this with his Muslim faith. Drinking tequila out of a
- 25:45Speaker 1: woman's belly button really tests his religion. Next week on
- 25:49Speaker 1: the United States of Al. It's the worst show in
- 25:52Speaker 1: the world other than La Brea. Have you seen this thing,
- 25:55Speaker 1: La Brea?
- 25:56Speaker 2: No, no.
- 25:56Speaker 1: It's a show where the, I think there's a sinkhole,
- 26:01Speaker 1: and then people, read the description of this.
- 26:07Speaker 3: A massive sinkhole opens up in the middle of L.A.,
- 26:10Speaker 3: separating a family between two worlds. The mother and son
- 26:13Speaker 3: fall into an unexplainable primeval land alongside a group of
- 26:18Speaker 3: strangers trying to figure out where they are and how
- 26:20Speaker 3: to get back home. Left above is a daughter who
- 26:23Speaker 3: barely manages to survive the disaster and the father whose
- 26:26Speaker 3: troubled past and hallucinations make him an unlikely choice to
- 26:29Speaker 3: help solve the mystery and reunite the family.
- 26:32Speaker 1: What?
- 26:33Speaker 3: But when he realizes his visions might just be the
- 26:35Speaker 3: key to finding their loved ones, time will be the
- 26:37Speaker 3: only thing that stands in their way.
- 26:38Speaker 1: This show is about a hole that opened up and
- 26:42Speaker 1: people fell into it into a world with dinosaurs. This
- 26:45Speaker 1: is the biggest show on TV right now. And I
- 26:48Speaker 1: know a kid in it who's like a nice kid,
- 26:49Speaker 1: but I do think it has to be canceled and
- 26:51Speaker 1: he has to be homeless. Because this is truly a horrible,
- 26:54Speaker 1: horrible thing.
- 26:55Speaker 2: So this is the biggest show and Squid Game, the
- 26:58Speaker 2: show on Netflix.
- 26:59Speaker 1: Perhaps. I don't know anything about Squid Game. But all
- 27:02Speaker 1: I know is that La Brea is about people falling
- 27:04Speaker 1: in a hole and landing in the land before time.
- 27:10Speaker 1: And they're like running around fighting like big prehistoric animals.
- 27:14Speaker 1: I mean, look at... Look at the La Brea. I mean,
- 27:21Speaker 1: is there anything stupider than this? Who is working? Like,
- 27:29Speaker 1: they don't know what to do anymore. So they're just like, yeah, whatever, man.
- 27:34Speaker 1: Let's just, yeah, it's a hole that opens up and
- 27:37Speaker 1: everybody falls into it and they fight dinosaurs. And the
- 27:41Speaker 1: dad is hallucinations and they unlock the key to the mystery.
- 27:44Speaker 1: What's the key to the mystery? We don't know. We'll
- 27:47Speaker 1: figure it out in season four. Leave us alone. It's embarrassing.
- 27:52Speaker 1: And Salt Bae is losing his mind, suggesting that he's
- 27:54Speaker 1: becoming an inspiration to millions of children. Salt Bae is
- 27:58Speaker 1: now saying, this is his quote, now everybody wants to
- 28:01Speaker 1: be a butcher because of me. Now if you ask
- 28:03Speaker 1: a kid, they want to be Salt Bae. They see
- 28:06Speaker 1: me as an idol. I'm an inspiration to a lot
- 28:08Speaker 1: of people in a very short period of time. Salt Bae,
- 28:10Speaker 1: let me correct you. You're an inspiration to absolutely no one.
- 28:14Speaker 1: No child wants to be you. I've never been to
- 28:19Speaker 1: salt-based restaurants.
- 28:21Speaker 2: He had one viral video where he was salting meat.
- 28:23Speaker 2: That was it.
- 28:24Speaker 1: Well, we know that. But have you ever been to
- 28:27Speaker 1: his restaurant? Well, it's these restaurants where I guess on
- 28:32Speaker 1: a good day he walks around from table to table
- 28:35Speaker 1: and he has like a big sword. This is true.
- 28:39Speaker 1: And then he just lobs women's clits off with his sword.
- 28:45Speaker 1: I mean, this is crazy, but people like it. People
- 28:49Speaker 1: love it. He lobs clits of women off and he
- 28:54Speaker 1: performs clitorectomies of women eating in the restaurant and people
- 28:58Speaker 1: like it. And then he salts the clit. I just personally,
- 29:05Speaker 1: I think it's a little backwards, but people like it.
- 29:11Speaker 1: Imagine eating in a Salt Bae restaurant, like unironically, going
- 29:17Speaker 1: there and going like, I'm excited for this. I'm excited.
- 29:22Speaker 1: The eye-popping prices of Salt Bae's new London restaurant include
- 29:25Speaker 1: an $ 850 steak and a $ 15 Red Bull. Well, here's
- 29:29Speaker 1: the deal. I am a fan of raising the prices
- 29:33Speaker 1: of food till it becomes comical. I do like that.
- 29:38Speaker 1: There's something that's very funny about raising the prices of
- 29:42Speaker 1: food so that they become so ridiculous and insane. I
- 29:47Speaker 1: remember when steaks used to be like in the high 30s.
- 29:50Speaker 1: Then they were in the mid 40s for a while. Now,
- 29:52Speaker 1: then they were in the 50s. Now, like, they're $ 80,
- 29:57Speaker 1: $ 72 for a steak. Some of them are well north
- 29:59Speaker 1: of $ 100, depending on the cut that you get, depending
- 30:03Speaker 1: if it's Wagyu or not Wagyu. You know, like, it's crazy,
- 30:07Speaker 1: but this is what they want. Like, if you're an
- 30:09Speaker 1: idiot and you're dumb enough to go to Salt Bae's restaurant,
- 30:13Speaker 1: you should pay thousands of dollars for that. The stakes
- 30:18Speaker 1: should be $ 2, 000 because you're already dumb enough to go. Right.
- 30:23Speaker 1: Like that's the marketing meeting. Like when they talk to
- 30:25Speaker 1: Salt Bae, they go, listen, these people are already stupid
- 30:29Speaker 1: enough to walk in the door of this restaurant. You've
- 30:33Speaker 1: proved absolutely nothing about your ability to do anything other
- 30:36Speaker 1: than like let salt trickle down your fucking forearm onto
- 30:41Speaker 1: a piece of meat. So the fact that people are
- 30:43Speaker 1: going to this means they're idiots and idiots and they're
- 30:47Speaker 1: rich enough and they'll pay any amount of money. So
- 30:50Speaker 1: let's just start charging $ 850. for a steak. And why not?
- 30:57Speaker 1: Why not? I'm for this in a big way. Somebody tweeted,
- 31:03Speaker 1: it's cheaper to fly and have food at Salt Bae's
- 31:05Speaker 1: Turkish restaurant than to go to the London one. Yeah,
- 31:09Speaker 1: the London one's very expensive. I love when you... Now,
- 31:15Speaker 1: by the way, somebody said that Salt Bae, and I
- 31:17Speaker 1: don't know if this is true, is a very popular
- 31:19Speaker 1: Halloween costume. Is this, could this possibly be true?
- 31:25Speaker 2: Let's see here.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I mean, let me hit news to see if it's like,
- 31:34Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not seeing anybody write anything about it.
- 31:37Speaker 1: Supposedly, Salt Bae's, hey, I was, I'm an inspiration to
- 31:44Speaker 1: children all over the world has something to do with
- 31:47Speaker 1: the fact that people are dressing up as him First
- 31:51Speaker 1: of all, kids don't want to be restaurateurs. They want
- 31:55Speaker 1: to be like firemen. They want to be like garbage men.
- 31:59Speaker 1: They like things with trucks. Little girls want to be
- 32:02Speaker 1: like princesses. And I'm not saying this is always the case.
- 32:05Speaker 1: I don't want to reinforce the gender binary. But a
- 32:09Speaker 1: lot of people, children don't want to, they're not like
- 32:12Speaker 1: thinking clearly. You know what I mean? Like what kind
- 32:17Speaker 1: of children are an inspiration? Imagine if you asked your
- 32:20Speaker 1: son or daughter, like, what do you want to be?
- 32:21Speaker 1: And they go, well, you know what I really like?
- 32:23Speaker 1: This guy's salt bae. He doesn't really do anything. And
- 32:25Speaker 1: everybody goes to his restaurants. They spend $ 900 on steak.
- 32:28Speaker 1: So I wish I could be like him. Cause it's
- 32:32Speaker 1: really spectacle. Like your three-year-old tells you this.
- 32:34Speaker 2: They'd be terrified.
- 32:35Speaker 1: Yeah. If your three-year-old just looks at you and go,
- 32:37Speaker 1: the world is primarily spectacle. Salt bae really exemplifies this.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Wouldn't you say? You go, what? Kids want to be
- 32:45Speaker 1: like Spider-Man when they grow up. They don't want to
- 32:49Speaker 1: be some freak. This is a guy, by the way,
- 32:54Speaker 1: you know how Mario Batali, it came out that Mario
- 32:56Speaker 1: Batali had a rape room? Yes. What do you think
- 32:58Speaker 1: is going to come out about Salt Bae eventually? It's
- 33:01Speaker 1: going to come out that Salt Bae was like a
- 33:03Speaker 1: cannibal who liked carving women up and eating them. Where
- 33:10Speaker 1: does he come from, Salt Bae?
- 33:12Speaker 2: Turkey.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Interesting. Salt Bae. Well, we wish him the best. He's a...
- 33:23Speaker 1: He's a figure that... Yeah, I mean.
- 33:27Speaker 2: Turkish chef.
- 33:27Speaker 1: Yeah, he has the power of Instagram. Good for him.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Good for him. He made a lot of money. All
- 33:35Speaker 1: you need is one viral video on Instagram that gets
- 33:38Speaker 1: people going. Truly. All you need is one viral video
- 33:42Speaker 1: on Instagram. Just one. And you can hawk your products
- 33:48Speaker 1: to morons who want to feel something before the end.
- 33:53Speaker 1: And that's what his restaurant's about. People in his restaurant,
- 33:57Speaker 1: they're just like this with the phone. Look, look where
- 34:01Speaker 1: we are. Look, it's so bad. People really have so
- 34:05Speaker 1: little going on in their life that it's exciting to them.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Speaking of products, boy, do we have a lot of them.
- 34:12Speaker 1: Where are they? Where are the ads? Wake up. Thank you.
- 34:16Speaker 1: Where are these advertisements? We only advertise products on this
- 34:21Speaker 1: show that I have a personal love for and relationship with.
- 34:27Speaker 1: I would never in my life, and many of you
- 34:30Speaker 1: know this about me, all the things that I've been
- 34:32Speaker 1: involved with, subprime mortgages, office supplies, I have the highest
- 34:36Speaker 1: standards of integrity. No one's standards of integrity are higher
- 34:39Speaker 1: than mine when it comes to product placement, And branding.
- 34:45Speaker 1: And so every product here is something that I am
- 34:49Speaker 1: intimately acquainted with. I've used. I love. What is this?
- 34:53Speaker 2: This is BetterHelp.
- 34:54Speaker 1: I mean, I cannot say enough about BetterHelp because people
- 35:00Speaker 1: need help. And the help that they're getting is what?
- 35:05Speaker 2: Over the phone. On the computer.
- 35:07Speaker 1: No, it's not. No, it's not.
- 35:10Speaker 2: What kind of help are we talking about?
- 35:11Speaker 1: Well, they're getting subpar help.
- 35:13Speaker 2: Oh, right. Yes.
- 35:14Speaker 1: Right.
- 35:14Speaker 2: If they're not using BetterHelp. That's for sure.
- 35:16Speaker 1: Right. See how dumb he is? He doesn't follow anything.

- 36:55Speaker 1: But the people that use this seem to be very
- 36:59Speaker 1: happy with it. And that's beautiful to me. It's absolutely beautiful.
- 37:06Speaker 1: Because I feel that if I had a better therapist,
- 37:09Speaker 1: I would have more joy.
- 37:11Speaker 2: That's definitely true. 100%.
- 37:13Speaker 1: Yeah. The podcast is sponsored by BetterHelp, and Tindall and
- 37:16Speaker 1: Cho listeners get 10% off their first month at betterhelp.com
- 37:19Speaker 1: slash timd. I love cereal. It's one of my favorite things.
- 37:22Speaker 1: But sometimes I say to myself, Jesus fucking Christ, it's
- 37:26Speaker 1: fucking sugar-filled. I'm going to kill myself. And everyone I know,
- 37:30Speaker 1: I'm such a sugar pig. Oh, man, I love licking
- 37:33Speaker 1: that sugar. It's just like sex. You feel it all
- 37:38Speaker 1: down your throat, that thick sugar. Fuck. I want sugar
- 37:41Speaker 1: in my fucking face. I look and I feel, when
- 37:45Speaker 1: I eat sugar, I feel happy but then sad. And
- 37:49Speaker 1: I sleep sometimes. I pull into a parking lot and
- 37:51Speaker 1: I sleep in the backseat of my car. And I
- 37:54Speaker 1: go to sleep. And if someone wakes me up, I say,
- 37:56Speaker 1: fuck you. Fuck you. And I just start screaming and
- 38:00Speaker 1: they go, I just want to make sure you're okay.
- 38:01Speaker 1: And I'm like, fuck you. Because I've had sugar. Sugar
- 38:05Speaker 1: is very bad. The happiest people I know don't eat sugar.
- 38:08Speaker 1: They just eat bone marrow. They're happier. Sugar is bad,
- 38:11Speaker 1: and it's October. It is so hard to not eat
- 38:14Speaker 1: sugar in October. Candy and Halloween and pumpkin muffins and
- 38:18Speaker 1: apple tartlets and pecan fucking pie. And you just lose
- 38:23Speaker 1: your mind with the sugar. I mean, you just... I mean,
- 38:25Speaker 1: the other day, I was eating a pumpkin... I was
- 38:30Speaker 1: eating a pumpkin scone, you know, a hard one.
- 38:34Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
- 38:34Speaker 1: And I was gnawing on it. And someone came up
- 38:38Speaker 1: to me and they said, does that have sugar in it?
- 38:40Speaker 1: And I said, you stupid fuck. Of course it does.
- 38:44Speaker 1: And they go, are there any sugar-free scones? And you
- 38:46Speaker 1: know what I did? I beat the living shit out
- 38:48Speaker 1: of them. And it was a diabetic on dialysis who
- 38:51Speaker 1: was very weak, but I attacked them. And they were older.
- 38:55Speaker 1: And every time you hit them, you could see their
- 38:57Speaker 1: blood clotting in real time. They had those. They were
- 38:59Speaker 1: like very frail in their skin. And I just started
- 39:01Speaker 1: wailing on them, throwing haymakers. And you saw this blood
- 39:05Speaker 1: all over their body. And their eyes were like sunken
- 39:06Speaker 1: in to their head like a demon. And they were
- 39:10Speaker 1: just like, I just want a sugar-free. And I say,
- 39:12Speaker 1: no sugar-free. None. But then I remembered that I should
- 39:16Speaker 1: have told them about Magic Spoon cereal. Because in all actuality,
- 39:21Speaker 1: Magic Spoon is sugar-free. And that's what makes it good.

- 39:48Speaker 1: about Magic Spoon. instead of physically assaulting them because they
- 39:52Speaker 1: were elderly and very sick. And that's where I sometimes

- 40:47Speaker 1: Saints of Newark, and we hope it's good. We know
- 40:49Speaker 1: several people that will really kill themselves if it's not good.
- 40:52Speaker 2: That's true.
- 40:52Speaker 1: They're seeing it the first day it comes out. People
- 40:55Speaker 1: get really excited about these things. That's a big part
- 40:59Speaker 1: of their life. Like, I was in New York with people,
- 41:02Speaker 1: and they went, this is where they film The Sopranos. Like,
- 41:04Speaker 1: that's the entire way they interface with the world is
- 41:07Speaker 1: a show. And I love The Sopranos. I think it's
- 41:10Speaker 1: probably the greatest show ever made, but I haven't, you know,
- 41:13Speaker 1: rewatched it 17 times. And I'm not going to see,
- 41:17Speaker 1: you know, I didn't buy my tickets six months ago
- 41:19Speaker 1: to see The Many Saints. You knew it for the
- 41:20Speaker 1: first day. But I understand that people do. It's like
- 41:24Speaker 1: that Irishman movie where people were really overly invested. You know,
- 41:28Speaker 1: it's enough already. To me, I think it's enough already.
- 41:30Speaker 1: I think it's overkill. I haven't even seen the movie.
- 41:33Speaker 1: And I'm going to go out and just say already, like,
- 41:35Speaker 1: I didn't need the prequel to Tony Soprano's life. I
- 41:38Speaker 1: just didn't care. It didn't mean anything to me. I
- 41:40Speaker 1: thought it was a brilliant piece of art. We don't
- 41:43Speaker 1: need to make more of it than what it was, right?
- 41:47Speaker 1: It's not a philosophy of life, I don't think, or
- 41:50Speaker 1: it shouldn't be. I don't think we need that. I
- 41:52Speaker 1: think we need to just enjoy it for what it is,
- 41:54Speaker 1: which is great art, and then move away, step away.
- 41:58Speaker 1: We don't need to get to Sopranos cookbook. We don't
- 42:01Speaker 1: need to, you know, talk about Feech Lamana. We don't
- 42:04Speaker 1: need to do any of that. We don't need to
- 42:05Speaker 1: start going through the episodes that have changed our lives.
- 42:09Speaker 1: I think we just really need to move on. But again, it's,
- 42:12Speaker 1: you know, people are putting a little too much into it,
- 42:16Speaker 1: in my opinion. But I could be wrong. Maybe it's
- 42:18Speaker 1: the greatest film that's ever been made. James Gandolfini's son
- 42:21Speaker 1: is in it. Why? I don't know. And Philip Seymour
- 42:24Speaker 1: Hoffman's son is now in things?
- 42:25Speaker 2: Licorice pizza with Paul Thomas Anderson. Why?
- 42:28Speaker 1: Why are we putting it? They're fucking the children. Why
- 42:31Speaker 1: in God's name? It makes me hate the legends that died.
- 42:35Speaker 1: We're giving their kids. Aren't these people the same people
- 42:38Speaker 1: that talk about how unfair everything is and inequality and
- 42:42Speaker 1: they're always voting for Democrats because they're going to fix
- 42:44Speaker 1: the inequality and and there's so many concentrations of wealth,
- 42:48Speaker 1: and all they do is fucking give dead people's kids
- 42:52Speaker 1: jobs that are already rich? Christ almighty, enough! They're already
- 42:57Speaker 1: fucking rich! He's not a genius! Philip Seymour Hoffman's son's
- 43:01Speaker 1: not a genius! His name is fucking Cooper! He's clearly
- 43:05Speaker 1: not a genius! Genius skips many generations, okay? Like all
- 43:10Speaker 1: of them. God forbid we get an actor who's been
- 43:13Speaker 1: in fucking the grind for years, sleeping on a fucking floor,
- 43:18Speaker 1: trying to get this job, who may be the next
- 43:20Speaker 1: Philip Seymour Hoffman. Maybe let's do that. Okay, what do
- 43:24Speaker 1: you- how do you cast things now? Ancestry.com? This is absurd!
- 43:30Speaker 1: It's stupid and disgusting! All the things you people portend
- 43:34Speaker 1: to care about, you don't! It's just a cheap fucking
- 43:38Speaker 1: trick to get people out to the fucking movies. Well,
- 43:41Speaker 1: how about make a good fucking movie instead of using
- 43:44Speaker 1: these cheap fucking tricks? Okay? I have no beef with
- 43:48Speaker 1: Gandolfini's son, and I have no beef with Cooper Hoffman
- 43:52Speaker 1: or whatever, but Jesus Christ already, why are we doing this?
- 43:57Speaker 1: They're not the best candidates. It's absolutely impossible that they're
- 44:02Speaker 1: the best candidates for the job. There's no fucking way.
- 44:06Speaker 1: They're gonna keep doing this. They're just gonna keep giving
- 44:11Speaker 1: roles to children whose parents are legends who've died. Here's
- 44:18Speaker 1: what I love about stand-up comedy. I won't mention names.
- 44:21Speaker 1: There are legends whose children do stand-up comedy. No one
- 44:24Speaker 1: cares about them. And that's so important because it is
- 44:27Speaker 1: kind of a little bit of a meritocracy. It's true.
- 44:29Speaker 2: Isn't it?
- 44:29Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Isn't it? I mean, so what's going on? And I've
- 44:37Speaker 1: had enough with Paul Thomas Anderson, too, you freak. Wait. No,
- 44:41Speaker 1: he's the genius. Who have I had enough with? Moonrise Kingdom.
- 44:45Speaker 2: Oh, Wes Anderson?
- 44:46Speaker 1: I've had enough with him. I've just had enough with him.
- 44:48Speaker 1: And I like a lot of what he's done. Paul
- 44:51Speaker 1: Thomas Anderson, I like a lot. I know that's your
- 44:53Speaker 1: favorite director.
- 44:54Speaker 2: Yeah, he's great.
- 44:55Speaker 1: He is great. Wes Anderson, I've had enough with. He's
- 44:57Speaker 1: put Chalamet in the new one.
- 44:59Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm kind of sick of it.
- 45:00Speaker 1: Chalamet, stop ruining everything you do.
- 45:02Speaker 2: He really is, man.
- 45:03Speaker 1: He's ruining everything.
- 45:07Speaker 2: This is the new one.
- 45:07Speaker 3: It's like, you know, it's Bill Murray, Francis McDormand, the
- 45:09Speaker 3: whole thing, but then Timothy is kind of the star
- 45:12Speaker 3: of this one.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Oh, God.
- 45:13Speaker 1: Get me out of here, please. This life is.
- 45:16Speaker 2: It's called The French Dispatch.
- 45:17Speaker 3: Here it is.
- 45:18Speaker 1: Of course it is.
- 45:19Speaker 2: Look at his face.
- 45:20Speaker 1: That's good. It's called one... You know what I call that?
- 45:23Speaker 1: One black actor. That's what I call it. I don't
- 45:29Speaker 1: call it The French Dispatch. I call it more of
- 45:31Speaker 1: the same. It's free, you know? Go, go... I want
- 45:36Speaker 1: Christopher Guest to cast a movie with Fred Willard's son.
- 45:41Speaker 2: You know?
- 45:41Speaker 1: And this is Hollywood. Everybody's like, no, it's concentrations of
- 45:47Speaker 1: wealth and family money. Listen, Wes Anderson's great, and maybe
- 45:52Speaker 1: this movie will be good. I'm a little sick of Chalamet.
- 45:57Speaker 1: I'm just sick of it. Can't we have something else?
- 46:00Speaker 1: Can we have something else other than this twink who
- 46:03Speaker 1: doesn't age? This pixie who does not age that must
- 46:08Speaker 1: prance through every fucking movie that's ever been made. Is
- 46:12Speaker 1: there anything else? That's all. Is there anyone else that
- 46:16Speaker 1: can do this job, please? And not Hansel and Gretel Elgort.
- 46:21Speaker 1: Not him either. Can we get someone else, please?
- 46:24Speaker 2: Someone else.
- 46:24Speaker 1: Other than Timothee Chalamet. What about Cooper Hoffman? What does
- 46:28Speaker 1: Cooper Hoffman look like?
- 46:29Speaker 2: I'll show you.
- 46:38Speaker 3: That's him as a kid. So here's what he looks
- 46:40Speaker 3: like in the movie right here. He kind of looks
- 46:43Speaker 3: like Philip Seymour Hoffman in Boogie Nights, just kind of the.
- 46:47Speaker 1: So if this isn't offensive, why am I supposed to
- 46:50Speaker 1: be offended that Jamie Dimon's kid has money? Right. So
- 46:56Speaker 1: when somebody at Goldman Sachs gives a job to their son,
- 46:59Speaker 1: why is that supposed to offend me, you frauds? Why
- 47:02Speaker 1: is that supposed to offend me if this doesn't offend me?
- 47:05Speaker 1: Or shouldn't it all offend me?
- 47:08Speaker 2: I guess technically, yeah.
- 47:09Speaker 1: One of the kids that got hired on SNL's dad's
- 47:11Speaker 1: like a producer at SNL. I don't really care about that.
- 47:13Speaker 1: And I even tweeted like enough already because the kid's funny.
- 47:16Speaker 1: The kid is funny. And if I see these movies
- 47:18Speaker 1: and these guys are really good in it, I'll still
- 47:20Speaker 1: say fuck them because it still should have went to,
- 47:24Speaker 1: you know, one of these other people I'd end up hating.
- 47:28Speaker 1: But one of the kids got SNL. I forget. You know,
- 47:31Speaker 1: one of those strange looking kids from Brooklyn, that sketch group.
- 47:35Speaker 1: And I forget the name. It's unimportant. But his dad's
- 47:41Speaker 1: a producer on SNL. It's Adam Sandler Collab.
- 47:43Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't have to name him.
- 47:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and people were like all twisted up about that.
- 47:46Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, this is the way the world works.
- 47:48Speaker 1: The guy with the dad gets the job. And the
- 47:49Speaker 1: kid's funny and their sketch group's funny. I mean, they
- 47:51Speaker 1: probably hate me or whatever, you know, because I'm logical
- 47:54Speaker 1: and brilliant. But I just don't care. Like, I'm just
- 48:00Speaker 1: saying let's not care at all. Like, don't fucking ever
- 48:03Speaker 1: come to me and start talking about, like, finance families then.
- 48:07Speaker 1: Stop with this shit. Cut it out immediately. If you're
- 48:10Speaker 1: going to do this, and Hollywood seems like they're going
- 48:12Speaker 1: to do this, if we're just going to, as a gimmick,
- 48:16Speaker 1: give roles to dead people's kids, then I don't want
- 48:20Speaker 1: to hear shit about fucking the presidency of George W. Bush.
- 48:30Speaker 1: Remember that when Bush was the thing that was an
- 48:32Speaker 1: entire narrative of like, how would you let this guy? Right.
- 48:35Speaker 1: I'm sure this guy's a nice guy.
- 48:37Speaker 2: Michael Gandolfini.
- 48:38Speaker 1: I'm sure he's lovely. I don't know.
- 48:39Speaker 2: He's like a nice kid.
- 48:41Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't care. Take your money and
- 48:46Speaker 1: get out of here. Can anyone take their goddamn money
- 48:51Speaker 1: and leave, please? Is anything ever enough for Christ? Anything. Anything.
- 48:59Speaker 1: How many generate, like, let it go. We didn't need
- 49:04Speaker 1: this fucking movie. The Many Saints of Newark.
- 49:08Speaker 2: We didn't need it.
- 49:09Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't need El Camino.
- 49:11Speaker 3: Either, the Breaking Bad one with Jesse Pinkman.
- 49:15Speaker 1: We did not need that. I didn't even I didn't
- 49:17Speaker 1: even dignify that but with even like letting it hold
- 49:21Speaker 1: any space in my head we do not need that
- 49:24Speaker 1: who's that actor Aaron Paul we do not need more
- 49:27Speaker 1: of him we do not need that we do not
- 49:31Speaker 1: need La Brea and then one of the kids in
- 49:32Speaker 1: La Brea I think is a sweet kid but you
- 49:35Speaker 1: you have to be homeless and the show has to
- 49:37Speaker 1: be cancelled sorry The Jack kid.
- 49:42Speaker 2: Oh, Jack Martin?
- 49:43Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a nice kid. I've met him. He's an
- 49:45Speaker 1: actor in L.A. But he's not a bad actor, probably.
- 49:48Speaker 1: But the show is atrocious, and I believe it should
- 49:51Speaker 1: be canceled, and that he should have to work at, like,
- 49:54Speaker 1: Astro Burger for a year to pay for what he's done. Yeah, yeah.
- 49:58Speaker 1: To just flip a few, put a few, put a
- 50:02Speaker 1: mayo on a bun. Make a nice burger to pay
- 50:07Speaker 1: for what you've done to us with this show where
- 50:11Speaker 1: people fall in a hole. You know? And why should
- 50:20Speaker 1: he have a chance? Let some dead guy's kid do it.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Why have a new actor do it? Let's have someone
- 50:28Speaker 1: who died. Let's have their kid do it. That's all.
- 50:33Speaker 1: That seems to make sense, you know? One exception is
- 50:40Speaker 1: Michael K. Williams' son.
- 50:42Speaker 2: Michael K. Williams?
- 50:43Speaker 1: I don't know if he has a son, but maybe
- 50:45Speaker 1: if he has a son, he could do something. Okay.
- 50:47Speaker 1: That's my one exception.
- 50:49Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, that would be cool.
- 50:50Speaker 1: That might be cool. That's one exception.
- 50:52Speaker 3: It rarely doesn't skip a generation. You have, like, Larry McMurtry,
- 50:59Speaker 3: James McMurtry. It's hard to think of other.
- 51:05Speaker 1: Princess Diana died, right? And what's her son doing over here?
- 51:11Speaker 1: Wasting everyone's goddamn time. Him and his wife are running
- 51:15Speaker 1: around spending millions of dollars on security, okay? I don't
- 51:20Speaker 1: know what they're afraid. They're afraid that someone's going to
- 51:22Speaker 1: come near them and be racist. So they have to
- 51:24Speaker 1: spend millions and millions of dollars going to New York
- 51:27Speaker 1: City hotels. You know, she spent 75K on the baby
- 51:31Speaker 1: shower at the presidential suite at the Mark. You're sitting
- 51:33Speaker 1: there eating caviar. And they are running around here. So
- 51:38Speaker 1: I just stop talking about fairness and inequality and the
- 51:43Speaker 1: death tax and all this shit. Like, stop this, please.
- 51:46Speaker 1: Stop it, please. I'm just, you know.
- 51:53Speaker 1: Maybe they're good. Maybe I'll see The Many Saints of Newark.
- 51:56Speaker 1: But again, the Gabe storyline shocked me. It stunned me.
- 52:01Speaker 1: I was not prepared for it. It was very interesting.
- 52:04Speaker 1: There's a scene in the thing where Tony is just getting...
- 52:09Speaker 1: I mean, it's brutal. And he's screaming, Oh!
- 52:13Speaker 2: Oh!
- 52:14Speaker 1: Oh, fuck. And you know what he's screaming as he's
- 52:17Speaker 1: getting fucked? There is no God. He's going, there is
- 52:19Speaker 1: no fucking God. There is no God. I hate God.
- 52:24Speaker 1: And I just go, you know, it's too much. Tindallandcomedy.com,
- 52:30Speaker 1: live tickets. We're on tour. Just shut up and go
- 52:35Speaker 1: into the shows. I don't even care anymore. I have
- 52:37Speaker 1: to go to the Ontario Improv. Ontario, California is one
- 52:40Speaker 1: of the biggest dumps in America, but the crowds were
- 52:41Speaker 1: fucking phenomenal. Because they have nothing to live for. You know,
- 52:47Speaker 1: when does this come out?
- 52:48Speaker 2: Tomorrow. The Saturday.
- 52:50Speaker 1: Yeah, it's over. By the time this comes out, it's over.
- 52:51Speaker 1: Go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Get tickets, folks. I'll be there
- 52:54Speaker 1: next weekend. Spokane, Washington. Seattle, Washington. We're there at the
- 52:57Speaker 1: end of the month. Portland, Oregon. Indianapolis. Morgantown, West Virginia. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Washington, D.C.
- 53:04Speaker 1: New York. Atlantic City. Atlantic City. Rochester.
- 53:06Speaker 2: And....
- 53:08Speaker 1: Many more. Iowa City, Madison, Louisville, Los Angeles, Bakersfield. I
- 53:12Speaker 1: do want to maybe say something about this Iowa City thing. Okay.
- 53:16Speaker 1: But we don't have the time. It's 3.57.
- 53:19Speaker 2: We got like three minutes if.
- 53:20Speaker 1: You want to. It's not enough. What I'm going to
- 53:23Speaker 1: say is I'm going to discuss it on the Patreon.
- 53:25Speaker 1: The people that run the theater in Iowa City... sent
- 53:29Speaker 1: out some type of email apologizing for booking me because
- 53:33Speaker 1: some members of their, like, corn community were offended by
- 53:38Speaker 1: things I had said. Of course, they're not canceling the
- 53:41Speaker 1: show because they want money.
- 53:42Speaker 2: Correct.
- 53:42Speaker 1: They're hypocrites. And they sent out an email, you know,
- 53:47Speaker 1: and they said that I had, like, questioned the vaccine
- 53:50Speaker 1: or something. Mm-hmm. I'm vaccinated. I never said don't get
- 53:53Speaker 1: the vaccine. I've told people to make their own choices.
- 53:55Speaker 1: I've also said the vaccine is not working as well
- 53:57Speaker 1: as everybody thought it would. And by the way, that
- 54:02Speaker 1: is something that I believe Pfizer would agree with. I mean,
- 54:04Speaker 1: this is legitimately crazy. I've said people should make their
- 54:08Speaker 1: own decisions about that and about everything, about voting, about everything.
- 54:11Speaker 1: I don't care what you do. Um, there's good reasons.
- 54:14Speaker 1: I'm sure that people have for not taking the vaccine.
- 54:16Speaker 1: And then there's good reasons that people have for taking it.
- 54:19Speaker 1: I don't know your health and your medical. It's not
- 54:20Speaker 1: my fucking problem. I'm not your doctor. And then he
- 54:23Speaker 1: also said that I said something racist about Black Lives Matter.
- 54:26Speaker 1: I believe I suggested that the person who was running
- 54:30Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter should not have spent millions of dollars
- 54:33Speaker 1: buying four houses. I said that. Tamir Rice's mother said
- 54:37Speaker 1: we didn't see any of the money. Maybe she's a racist, too.
- 54:39Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess everyone's a racist. But this
- 54:41Speaker 1: theater of, you know who these people are in Iowa.
- 54:44Speaker 1: I mean, they're the whitest people. biggest pussies in the
- 54:47Speaker 1: world who are pseudo-intellectuals, worthless people. They live in Iowa.
- 54:52Speaker 1: They're in the art scene and they live in Iowa.
- 54:54Speaker 1: That's how seriously they take doing things. And they're embarrassments.
- 54:59Speaker 1: They're embarrassments to life, these people. Let's be very honest.
- 55:02Speaker 1: They're embarrassing. They're embarrassments. And they send out an article
- 55:06Speaker 1: because some fat chick in the theater program didn't like
- 55:10Speaker 1: something I said. Well, how about moving out of Iowa
- 55:13Speaker 1: and trying to make it for real? Okay, dummy. Move
- 55:16Speaker 1: to New York. Move to L.A. And try to get
- 55:19Speaker 1: on La Brea or whatever the hell you want to do.
- 55:22Speaker 1: But you send an email out and you didn't cancel
- 55:24Speaker 1: the show. So I don't know what I'm going to do.
- 55:26Speaker 1: I'm looking for other venues. I'm angry about this. I'm
- 55:28Speaker 1: not happy about it. Um... They're like treating me like
- 55:32Speaker 1: it's weird to send an email out and be like,
- 55:35Speaker 1: he's questioned the response to the pandemic. I'm like, I
- 55:38Speaker 1: didn't do that. I don't even know what the fuck
- 55:40Speaker 1: that means. This is weak. It's truly weak that they
- 55:44Speaker 1: did this. I'm unhappy about it. They're slimy serpent like
- 55:50Speaker 1: behavior to do this, to send an email out on
- 55:53Speaker 1: this low level. And then you look for the comments.
- 55:56Speaker 1: Where are all these comments?
- 55:57Speaker 2: I can't find anything.
- 55:58Speaker 1: Where are all these comments on social media? I went
- 55:59Speaker 1: on the Facebook, the Instagram, the Twitter. No one's mad.
- 56:01Speaker 1: Where is everyone that's so angry about this in your
- 56:04Speaker 1: pretend world in Iowa?
- 56:06Speaker 2: In their inbox.
- 56:06Speaker 1: Shut up, Iowa. Give me a break, please. You're lucky
- 56:11Speaker 1: I'm going there. We should use it as a nuclear
- 56:13Speaker 1: testing facility. The Iowa Democratic primary. All these people care
- 56:17Speaker 1: about is they have the Iowa caucus where all these idiots,
- 56:20Speaker 1: every year they get a bunch of morons in a
- 56:22Speaker 1: house and the Democrats go in there and people are like, well,
- 56:25Speaker 1: I'm concerned about trade and my daughter's non-binary. And then
- 56:31Speaker 1: you have to pretend that these fucking people matter. These
- 56:34Speaker 1: corn fed slobs. No one gives a shit. Shut the
- 56:37Speaker 1: fuck up. And we have to pretend that they matter
- 56:40Speaker 1: because of this dumb electoral college or whatever. And I
- 56:42Speaker 1: think the electoral college is good because you do need
- 56:45Speaker 1: some proportional representation. I'm not trying to tell people in
- 56:48Speaker 1: these small states what to do. But the idea that
- 56:50Speaker 1: we're supposed to care about these fucking monsters is just
- 56:52Speaker 1: not true. And they derive their sense of political importance
- 56:56Speaker 1: from the Iowa caucus. Where they all have to convince
- 57:00Speaker 1: each other. It's not even a secret bout. They all
- 57:01Speaker 1: have to convince each other. They all have to debate.
- 57:03Speaker 1: And somebody's like, Pete Buttigieg is in the diner and
- 57:07Speaker 1: he saw me and he said that he was going
- 57:10Speaker 1: to be fair to the little babies that are different.
- 57:16Speaker 1: It's like, all right, you shut the fuck up. So
- 57:19Speaker 1: I'm in a one-sided war with this dumb theater that
- 57:22Speaker 1: just sent an email. But of course they don't want
- 57:24Speaker 1: to cancel the show because they need money.
- 57:27Speaker 2: Because tickets are selling.
- 57:28Speaker 1: Yeah, tickets are selling and they need money to pay
- 57:31Speaker 1: their $ 400 a month mortgage or something. You know? Whatever. Anyway,
- 57:38Speaker 1: I'll be a Malibu hoe. Good night.
