  Speaker 1: The Joe Rogan Experience.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: All day.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: I like him, though. I mean, when I was a kid,
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: I talked to him a little on the green room,
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: and then I thought he had a pretty good set.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: He's funny.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Matt's funny. Matt Rife is very funny. What the fuck's
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: going on?
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: I don't get fucking crowd work.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: It's not my thing, but I get it. It's a
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: tough skill. Some people are really good at it.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I guess they are, but I won't let my opening
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: act do it.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Oh, it becomes a problem.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Because then they feel like they can talk to me,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: which they cannot. Yes. Because I just, I always looked
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: at it as a time killer back when I had
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: 41 minutes, but I was supposed to do 45 minutes.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, I got to talk to these fucking
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: hayseeds for four minutes and get this thing done. Wrapped up.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: But once I had the jokes, you know, I just
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: do the fucking jokes. Yeah.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't knock it. It's cool. It's a
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: different thing. It's a different thing. It's it's relies on
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a very strong improvisational muscle because like you're under the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: gun to come up with something funny to say. But
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: it is always funnier because it's under the gun than
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: it would be in a normal circumstance.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Like the things that you're saying. But you can never
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: use it again. I mean, you can use the skill
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: all the time. I mean, I guess some people are
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: that good at it.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Ingram's really good at it. Rick Ingram, he's got a
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: lot of, like, built-in stuff, like material he can pull out, too,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: because he does it so often.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. So he's got to blend the two together.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. He seamlessly integrates the two of them together.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: He's really good at it. Big Jay, Big Jay Oakerson,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: he's really good at it. He's really good at it
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: because he knows how to hold a moment. He knows
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: how to hold, like, when someone says something ridiculous, he
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: knows how to pause. He knows how to, like, he's
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: got great storytelling.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a nice guy, too.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: He's a great guy. But he also is a great comic. Like,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: he just does funny stand-up comedy on top of that.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, the crowd work is nice, but
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: it's not the only thing he does. Whereas some people,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: that's their whole thing.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I hear these young comics at the club, I've
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: got to work on my crowd work. I've got to
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: work on my crowd work. And I'm like, well, you don't, but.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Is your Pat O'Neill's joke about that? I don't want
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: to give it up on the air, but it's really hilarious.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: He's funny, man. That guy's a joke machine. Pat O'Neill?
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I think Pat is, you know, I had him on
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: my show, too, right after I saw him on Kill Tony.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: So funny. And, you know, it's amazing. Kill Tony, what
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: was the kid's name that opened last night? Oh, you
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: weren't there Monday night. I was there Monday night. The
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: young kid, he's from Alabama. Do you know who I'm
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: talking about? I do know.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: He just got the golden ticket.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: On Kill Tony. Yeah, when I was hosting. And you
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: were there that night.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Let me text Tony.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: I'll find out. Find out.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: It might not have been aired yet.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: No, it hasn't. Has it aired?
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: No, I just don't know his name.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Fucking kid's hilarious. He works at the club, too. Cool kid, too. And,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you know, I was living in Alabama. Decided to take
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: a chance.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Brent Reid? Brent Reid. Yeah, Brent Reid. He's opening for
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: me tonight.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Funny motherfucker, dude. And he was saying, that's right, because
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: he was saying, like you said after you saw him
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: on Kill Tony, hey, I'd like to have you open
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: for me. And he was like, holy fucking shit, man.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: He had called his dad. He's like, I'm fucking opening
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: for Ron White. His dad was giving him shit about
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: his comedy career.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: Stand-up, you know, stand-up's not as funny as it used
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: to be to me. It's very, very rare that I'll
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: sit and watch somebody do stand-up and laugh out loud
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: if I'm up on the balcony. But that kid cracked
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: me up. He's very good. Great writing. What's amazing is
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: that when he came back on Kill Tony, he'd only
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: been on one time. One time.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Actually not.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: And they already knew who he was. I mean, they
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: gave him a round of applause like it was one
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: of the biggest comics in the country, and he'd been
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: on once. Yeah. And the second time was.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: He'd actually, I thought that too, but he had actually
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: been on before and bombed. And he talked about that,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: about how he came back. And this set, he was just,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: he'd been working at the club. He'd been living in Austin.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: It's way more comfortable. He built his act up. And
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: he was like, super honest about it. We're all chilling
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: in the back. Very cool guy. We were just talking
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: about it. He's like, yeah, I just had to get
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: my shit together, man. I didn't figure out what the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: fuck I'm doing. And the first time I did, I
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: kind of froze. But this time I was like, And
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: this time he had to follow that other dude. Who
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: was that other dude who also got a golden ticket? Right, right.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Two in a row. Who's that guy? That guy was funny.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Have we seen him since? I haven't seen him back
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: up at the club.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen him since, but that guy's fucking talented, too.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: He was very funny. So they got two golden tickets
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: in a row. Who was the other guy that got
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: a golden ticket? He had a fun name. Like a
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: made-up name.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: Give me a second.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Sorry.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like Sir... I remember. Something. I don't remember.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: I don't either.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I don't remember, but it was hilarious. It was ridiculous.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Whatever his name was was ridiculous.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: So I just got back from Lake Como and Verona
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: and Zermatt, Switzerland.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, damn, dude.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Fucking 20, 21 days. Of just pure relaxation. And I
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: got to tell you, I dug every goddamn minute of it.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: It was 107 degrees here in Texas. Oh, the high
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: today is 62. Yeah, that guy right there. What is
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: his name? It's French, I think. Yeah, I know it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Francois something, right? I think it's a fake name.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Let's see if he says it here.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Sorry. Does he say it? I can't hear.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Not fine, not fine, not fine.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Okay, tell me what it is. But that dude is
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: very funny, too.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's talented.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: So he's super funny in the interview, too. Like, very
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: funny back and forth. Just a funny dude. Right. So
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: two golden tickets in a row. But anyway, that guy
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: killed so hard that when the other guy came on
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: after him, it's like, holy shit. Like, you've got a
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: tough spot here. And he murdered.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: And he murdered, right, on top of it. So when
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: he opened for me, there were still a couple of
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: jokes that didn't work. I mean, it wasn't like... play
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: in a kill tony crowd that's right right of course
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: it's your crowd and so uh buddy he got his

  Speaker 2: it deidrick the the other guy.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: The yes dedrick yeah dedrick flynn yeah yeah fucking hilarious guy.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: I think he's One of the best around. Absolutely. Just
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: his demeanor on stage. He's on the show tonight, too.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: And that's another dude that almost didn't, like, leave Atlanta.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: He was stuck in Atlanta just spinning his wheels, and
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: he couldn't make it happen. And then he came out
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: here and got on Keltonium.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Boom! It's just such a great opportunity if you're ready
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: for it. If you're not, it's just another passing moment,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: and the crowds love it, too. I mean, the crowds
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: get it. But if you're not ready, it ain't going
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: to happen.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Steve Francois.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Francois, yeah.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: The comedy seller. I think he has that added.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: That's what he calls himself. The comedy seller. Like S-E-L-L-E-R.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Unlike the club.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: That's right. That was his crazy name. The comedy seller.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: But very funny dude. Yeah, I mean, it's the greatest
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: thing for comedians in the history of comedy in terms
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: of having a real platform that if you've been banging
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: it out on the road for seven, eight, nine, ten years,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: you put together a solid half hour, hour, you're really
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: starting to tour, you're middling for guys, you're really starting
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to feel like a real comic, and you got one
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: banger minute on Kill Tony, boom. Next thing you know,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: you show up. Look at all these guys. Look at
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Ari Matty. Ari Matty goes on stage. They go fucking
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: bananas now.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they do.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: William Montgomery. The Black Keys asked me to bring William
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Montgomery to the club because I was going up that
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: night and they were coming to the club. They go, hey,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: is William Montgomery coming? I go, I'll make sure he comes.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I called him up.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Fuck, man. It's so much fun. Even though I enjoyed
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: it when I first saw it out in L.A., I
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: did not see, I did not have the vision that
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Tony has, you know, that what it could be someday.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I just thought it was a great idea and I
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: didn't know if it would ever go anywhere, but good God.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I told him maybe like four or five years in,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I go, whatever you do, don't stop doing this. I go,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: this is going to be one of the biggest shows
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: in comedy. I go, this is so unique and so
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: huge and so different. And the way you host and
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the way you do it is different than the way
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: anybody else would do it.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: And nobody else could do it.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's all him.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: It's, it's, He really is pure genius, the show is.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: He's a genius host. People hate on that guy. You
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: have no idea how talented he is. That improvisational talent
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: that he has off the bat like that.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, I have an idea.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Second to none.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: No.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Second to none.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Second to none.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: It's incredible. I was telling him a lot. He's like, really?
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: You think so? I go, do not ever stop doing
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: this show. This show is going to be fucking huge.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Fuck it. It is too.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: And now it sells out Madison Square Garden two.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Nights in a row. Yeah. Wish I could do that.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: It's amazing. I love it. I'm so happy for him.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And it's so cool to watch. And it's such a
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: positive karma show because all the. comics that leave that
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: show and they take off. Like, you know, it's just
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: watching Cam Patterson on SNL, watching all these different comedians
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: just sell out all over the country.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: It's incredible. I love it, man. I love it when
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: somebody hits it, you know?
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Well, it's great for all of us.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: It's great for the club.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: It's great for the young people coming up to see
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: that it's possible that someone else can make it there.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: It's like, it's the new, like, Hollywood, you got a
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: sitcom thing. You know what I mean? It's like very similar.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Because back in those days, like when one of your
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: friends got a sitcom, you're like, holy shit, Mike got
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: cast on fucking Bob's cousin, whatever the fuck it is.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Some stupid ass sitcom. And everybody was like, wow, maybe
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: I can make it too. This is the new version
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: of that. You're seeing guys, but now it's just stand up.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Like you have a real career in stand up from it.
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Which is all I've ever done.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: That's all I've ever done is stand-up comedy. And so
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: that's kind of a weird career, you know, not to
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: be able to bounce to here off of anything other
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: than just jokes.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Stand-up comedy is.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: A weird career, period.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Because, you know, everyone's like psychologically fragile. Yeah.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: And then you're going through these ups and downs and
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: you're trying to sell tickets and you're trying to be relevant.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: And something's got to happen.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Something's got to happen.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Right. I mean, there's got to be a catalyst.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: And for me, it was all, you know, the blue
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: collar comedy tour, which now people don't even remember what
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: that is. But at one time it was a big deal,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: you know, and it.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I think most people my age remember it. Most people
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: are also shocked that there's not another one. Some other
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: guys haven't figured out how to do something like that.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Take that level of comics, like four of them, put
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: them together, and go on tour.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Right. Well, with the killers that killed Tony, it's kind
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: of like that. It's a little bit like that. The
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: group of some guys, not as big as Foxworthy. Foxworthy
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: was the only real star of that show when it started.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: He was willing to share a stage with me. That
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: was the catalyst for me. But I'd also been doing
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: stand-up for Foxworthy. 14 years and i've been headlining comedy
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: clubs for 11 of them that's.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: The thing right it's there's no substitute for the time
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: in and there's so many guys that are like right
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: about to crack you know that's where kill tony really
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: comes along guys that have really put that time in
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: really been on the road yeah.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: If you're prepared for the opportunity then that's the best
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: thing out there for you and if you're not then
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: it was just another fucking day at the park you
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: know No big deal.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Then you have to figure out what the fuck you're
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: going to do with your life.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, good luck.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Because you bomb on Keltoni, and you're an Uber Eats driver,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, no. Man. What is my life now?
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'm glad that I didn't really get
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: weird exposure early. You know, that's the worst thing that
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: can happen is you win a contest or something, and
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: you don't have the show to back it up with,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: but all of a sudden you can sell tickets, and
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: that's just a death spiral is what that is. Yeah,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: that could do you in.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: There's such a dance of what works and what doesn't work.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Guys trying to find their voice on stage and trying
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: to write and trying to figure out what to do.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: And then also might have a drinking problem. Also might
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: do cocaine.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Also might owe the IRS $ 50, 000. Some of these guys
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: are so fucked up. But they're some of our favorite artists.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: And when they crack through and then all of a
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: sudden become comfortable and make a living, it's a fucking
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: glorious thing to see.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: It was always neat at the comedy store because all
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: the comics park in that parking lot. And you could
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: tell when something happened because it's either shitty cars or
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: great cars. There was no medium cars out there. You
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: were either broke or you had cash. And if you
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: had cash, you had a new car.
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: There would be times you go back there. It was
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: like Mercedes, Ferrari, Porsche, Corvette.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Right, Vega.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Well, there was always a lot of people that drank.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: I always tried to talk Mark Maron to get a
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: nice car. He would never do it. Him and Ari.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I had an M3 once. I'm like, Mark, this is
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: a sensible car. This is not too crazy. It's not
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: too look at me.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Fun to drive.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: It's so fun to drive. I go, dude, it makes
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: driving a ride. You don't even have to go fast.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Just the way it handles, the way it accelerates, the braking,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: carbon fiber brakes. It's got carbon ceramic brakes, man. It's
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: fucking incredible. It's on rails, this thing. I was like,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: he goes, how much is it? And like, we're going back.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: He just couldn't be that ostentatious. You know, I've got
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of money guy, even when he had a
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: lot of money. I'm like, what's the point?
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: I was the same way when I first started making money.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Cause I just assumed it was all going to end. Right. So,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: which it does normally. And, uh, and so I was like,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: fuck man, I, I, I, I just got to be
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: ready for when this, I got to make as much
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: money as I can and work as hard as I
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: can before this whole thing comes tumbling fucking down. And
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: it never fucking did. So now then I was like, oh,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: somebody's got to put a stop to this. And and
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: then I tried to quit for a little while. But fuck,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: it's just too much fun.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: I spent every penny I had for years. I didn't
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: give a fuck. Even when I was on TV, I
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: was living like a baller. I was just spending all
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: my money. I didn't save anything. I was like, if
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: it doesn't go, if it goes out, I'm not living
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: normal now. So I could live normal forever. I'll figure
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: out a way to live normal. Like right now I'm
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: on fucking television. Like, give me a car.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Let's go.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I want to buy a house. I was like, look,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: if I go bankrupt, I've had my car repossessed before.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I've been broke before. Like, okay, I'll be broke again.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: But right now I'm not broke. So I'm going to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: live like I'm not broke.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: I was living like I wasn't broke this, uh, Past
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: three weeks in Switzerland.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: That's a nice way to live, man. But I don't
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: think you could do it forever. I think that's the thing. Like,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you have to work as hard as you do. Like,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: you're always touring. You're always working on your material. You're
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: always writing. You're always doing sets. You're at the club
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: all the time. You're always banging it out. So for you,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: you've earned that. Like, when you kick back and you
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: got a fucking pina colada you don't drink anymore. But
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: you're sitting back with whatever you're doing, just taking in
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: that sun. Not a damn thing to do. People are
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: feeding you food.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah. The work's already been done. Yeah.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: But you have to earn that. If you just do that,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: that's not good on its own. People look to that
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: thing as if it's like Jordan Peterson's talked about that before.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Like the people imagine their retirement. Sitting on a beach
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: drinking margaritas. Like how many margaritas can you drink?
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: How long can you sit on that beach? Right. Before
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: now you're depressed.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Or even if it's you bought a yacht. Right. How
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: long can you sit on that?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: That's crazy.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: Before you're bored out of your skull. But, yeah, you know,
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: it's almost 70 years old. You know, fuck yeah, I
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: deserve all the– I get to do whatever I want.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you get to do whatever you want. But, again,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: like 20 days is good. Have you ever been to Switzerland?
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: I have not.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Fuck. It's beautiful.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: It's so gorgeous. And it's not even that. It's the
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: infrastructure of it. And, you know, we're $ 40 trillion in debt.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: We don't have a high-speed train to anywhere. Where's our shit,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: you know? But you can get to the top of
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: almost any mountain there at 70 years old. You'll take
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: a train to here, a fucking auger cut through a
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: mountain here, then a gondola over there, and then over
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: the top. You can actually go to fucking Italy here.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: on gondolas from Switzerland and have dinner and come back.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: It was fucking gorgeous. The only thing I didn't like
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: was pay toilets. And because I didn't have it, you
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: have to have a dollar in Swiss francs. To take
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: a shit? To take a shit. And I'm like, that's...
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: discrimination is like why is it discrimination only people with
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: a dollar can shit here and then and it wouldn't
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: take a euro and it wouldn't take American money but
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: then I found out oh you can use a credit
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: card so I have to borrow money to shit make
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: payments it's a dollar a dollar to shit yeah but
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: if you don't have one of those dollars you gotta
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: get your credit card out and swipe it on this.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I guess after a while everybody adjusts and you just
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: keep a dollar with you if you're gonna go out
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: in case you have to shit And that way at
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: least you keep the riffraff out of the toilets?
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, the riffraff got to shit somewhere. They do.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: They don't want to shit on the street.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: And I was about to shit on the floor if
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I couldn't find a way in, and finally another guy
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: behind me says your credit card works.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: You should be able to do Apple Pay.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, straight through to the shitter. Yeah. But I loved it.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: I had so much fun. Lake Como was so beautiful.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, Switzerland has famously been neutral.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: That's Switzerland. And a lot of banks. A lot of
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: banks go over there, right? A lot of money, and
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: they don't spend any of it on war.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't spend a dime of it on war.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: And I was asking, you know, it was kind of
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: interesting because I went to France almost exactly a year before,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: and I got kicked off that cruise ship, the little
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Viking cruise. Did I ever tell you that story about
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: getting kicked off of that fucking thing? It did.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by NBC. Each week,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: they work together on high-stakes cases, taking down the country's
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: most dangerous criminals. Like any family, the Hollingsworths don't always
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: see eye to eye, but they always have each other's backs.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: After all, working in the federal government isn't just their job,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: it's the family business. Line of Fire premieres Monday, September
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: 21 at 10, 9 central, after The Voice on NBC
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: and the next day on Peacock.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: I knew it was going to be a problem when
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I saw the boat, right, because I got weed and
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: gummies and shit. And I'm like, I don't know if
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: this is going to work or not, but I'll just
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: see what I can get away with, right? And then
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: I'll deny it and then do something different. You know,
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: we parked the boat every day. I can just get
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: off the boat and smoke. I don't really care. And
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: the fucking people came down on me so hard at
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Viking Cruises. And the captain of the ship confronted me
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: in front of a bunch of people, really loud and aggressive,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: and called me a liar. Were you lying? No, I
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: was smoking pot out on my deck, which is where
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: the first guy came in and said, hey, listen, you
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: can't smoke pot in your room, but if you want
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: to smoke pot on your deck, well, that's what I
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: had been doing, but I hadn't been real careful about
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: keeping the doors shut. And this was the hotel manager guy,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: not the captain of the ship, and he was the
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: nicest guy ever. And he meant me no harm. Just
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: figure this out, you know. Well, the next day, we
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: were parked right at the dock, and the dock was
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: right there, right off my balcony. And I'm sitting there
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: in a cloud, in the puff, going anywhere. And he
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: calls and says, hey, the captain wants to talk to you.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, do I know what it's about? And
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: he goes, yeah, you know. And I'm like, All right. And, uh,
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: they came in just in the hallway, just dressed me down.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: And he said, uh, I said, no, I was smoking
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: pot where that guy told me to pointed right at
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: the other dude. And he goes, I think you were
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: smoking pot in your, in your bathroom. And he got
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: in the ventilation system. Oh, you just made that shit up, dude.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: You just called me a liar. I'm one of your customers.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I bought a suite on this goddamn thing. And he said,
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: you listen to me. And at the end of it,
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: he goes, well, listen, if you want to smoke pot
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: on the top deck, maybe I could look the other way.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Why didn't you open with that instead of jumping my
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: fucking ass?
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: How illegal is pot over there?
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know, I was in the wrong. You know,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: it's probably illegal.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: But I mean, how illegal?
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, you can still buy in Paris. You can
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: get a fucking card and go in and buy weed. Okay. Well,
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: that's silly, man.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: God, the whole thing's so silly that that's still an issue.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: I get the whole smoking pot publicly. It is gross,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: especially to non-smokers and people with families.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I forget how strong the smell is.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's strong. I get that. I understand that. That
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: makes sense to me. But the laws against it are
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: just stupid. They're just fucking stupid.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Speaking of felonies.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: You can't do that on the air.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Huh? I'm not. It's a cigar. Oh, okay.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: You can smoke that on the air.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: I brought you one, too.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, thank you.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Let's go. Actually, I can't tell you where it's from. Uh-oh.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Because that's a felony, too. Why?
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Huh? Oh, is this from that other country?
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: Some foreign country. I actually bought it.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: I think those are legal to have.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: No, they're not.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: I think Cuban cigars are legal to have, and that's
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: not what we're talking about, because these definitely wouldn't be
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Cuban cigars. But I think Cuban cigars are legal to have.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: I think you're allowed to have a certain amount of
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: them now. Where it used to be there was an
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: embargo to all trade to Cuba, and I think there's
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: a limited amount of Cuban cigars you're.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: Allowed to possess. Let's look that up. I don't think
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: that's right.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: I believe that's the case. Do you need a lighter, sir?
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Ron White, ladies and gentlemen. Boy,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: this smells like South of Florida.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah. This is tough. Damn, these are legit.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Damn, this is a real thing, Ron White.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: There's like a loophole.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Isn't it weird? There's a loophole?
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Isn't it weird how some countries are just way better
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: at certain shit? Can you buy Cuban cigars at a U.S.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Shop?
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: No.
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: No.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: Can you order Cuban cigars online for delivery to the U.S.? No.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Smoke a Cuban cigar while abroad where the law permits it? Generally, yes,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: but do not bring it back. What? That's crazy. Imagine
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: they're telling you whether or not you can smoke a
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: Cuban cigar if you're in England.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: I used to get them from England. I had a
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: dude in England that would send them to me. This
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: is way back in the Dizzee. And he would send
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: me a box of them with no bands on them.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: And then he would send me a separate bag with
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: all the bands in it in an envelope.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: Notice these don't have bands on them.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: That's the thing.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: But there's so many fake ones.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: No, that's the most counterfeited thing in the world is
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Cohiba cigars.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: It says for a period ending September 2020, travelers could
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: bring Limited Cuban cigars back for personal use. That exemption
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: was removed. Exception was removed. Current CBP guidance says people
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: subject to U.S. jurisdiction may acquire Cuban goods while outside
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: the United States in certain circumstances, but may not import
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Cuban origin tobacco products into the country. Well, thank God
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: these aren't Cuban.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, thank God. Well, I bought them in Switzerland, so
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: I assume they're Swiss. They must be.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: They're really good at everything over there, including cheese.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Well, they're good at cigars. That's Zeno Davidoff from Switzerland. Oh, really? Yeah.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Where did he get their tobacco?
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Well, he was rolling cigars. He was making cigars in Cuba.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: But he smelled the whole thing coming before everybody else
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: did and moved to Dominican Republic. And before he did that,
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: he moved seeds over there, started plantations, moved his rollers
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: over there. So really, when that all went down, the
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: only really good cigar you could get was Davidoff.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It's kind of crazy how the Cubans really are so
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: much better. They're a level above.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: They're a level above, and one of it is the rollers.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: They just had generational rollers, and they have these big
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: rolling rooms where somebody would sit up in front of
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: the thing and read them books, and they'd just sit
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: there and roll these beautiful fucking classic cigars that smoke
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: gorgeous and taste gorgeous. Well, if you don't have that,
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: there have been companies that have bought other cigar companies
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: just to get their rollers. And then discontinue the line altogether.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Now I need these guys twisting up some fucking.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you need the wizards.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: There was a place in Miami where we used to
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: go to when we would do the Miami Improv. And
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: you could go and watch these people who used to
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: be in Cuba and now they're in Miami rolling cigars.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Watch them do it.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: And making beautiful cigars. And they'd cut it and roll
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: it out. Right.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: And they'd sell you the cigars right there. And it's
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: like incredible. You watch them do it.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: And that is pure contraband too, you know, because that
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: tobacco is coming from somewhere.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know where they're getting it. I don't
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: know if they even said.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I don't remember. This was a long time ago.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: But, you know, you can't. You can get great cigars
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: from Nicaragua, great cigars from the Dominican Republic, but there
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: is a difference.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a difference. It's crazy.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: You know, it's a really small area, too, where they
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: grow the best.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: It's a little tiny place. Actually, you can still buy
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: pre-embargo Cuban cigars in America. So if it was rolled
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: and brought into the country before the embargo, they're legal.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: And there's a market for them. And they're expensive. Pre-embargo
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: Cuban cigars. How old are those? Well, they have to
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: have been kept the whole time in humidors. Whoa. But
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: these big, rich guys that, you know, cigars were a penny.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: And then Cuban cigars came available, and they were a nickel.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: Nobody's going to pay a nickel. You know, this is
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: 120 years ago.
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: But it turns out they did pay a nickel, and
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: they were just that much better. And then those guys,
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: when they heard about that embargo, they bought everything there
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: was and built these huge humidors. And when they died,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: those things went on the market. Oh, wow. I stayed
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: at the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. And they have
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: a Cuban cigar outlet in that hotel. Whoa. I bought
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: one because it was like $ 200.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: So it was like a 1960 cigar?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: 62 or something like that.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. See if you can find those online. Are
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: those available online?
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: I'm sure they are.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: That's a crazy thing.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pre-embargo Cubans.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: You know, JFK did that before he made the embargo.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: He bought a shitload of cigars and brought them back.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: You motherfucker.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he knew what he was doing. You motherfucker.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: He knew what he was doing.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: You motherfucker.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: You did that, and then you made them illegal.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: What's up?
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: I had to click when I was 18 plus on
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Reddit to look at a picture of them. It says
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: it's NSFW content, and it's just pictures of cigars.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Why is that not safe for work?
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. It looks like the whole cigar
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: thing is all NSFW.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Pre-embargo 1962. Are those for sale or they're just photos?
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I was just finding a photo.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I thought that was super strange.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: That is super strange.
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: I probably can't find them on eBay, I bet.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: It's porn for cigar people, right? They just want to
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: stare at them.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: I felt it move.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: What is it about men who love collecting things that
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: are hard to get?
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that once you have money and then
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: all the things you thought you wanted, you get those,
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: and then you want something you can't have.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: This is not too bad. This is one that's 300
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: bucks for one cigar. One or for a bundle of 25.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: What? Really?
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: I think it's a bundle of 25.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. That's really cheap. That's cheap for any Cuban cigar.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: That can't be possible.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: No. I paid more than that for it.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: These guys are fucking you.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Probably fake. This is how you get.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: I bet. Maybe it's not.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: Stumble across fake sneakers really quickly.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: But is that really? Look at the reviews. You think
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: it's real? It's all four stars. I would just say if.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: You guys are already saying the price isn't right, this
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: is some fake shit.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Ron would be the one to know.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: I didn't even know about this until 20 minutes ago.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's real.
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: This is how people. I'm telling you to buy fake Jordans.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: Jamie, let's order a box.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine that.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Order a box, please. Add to cart.
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: Who's going to smoke it first and test it?
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: Me.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: I will.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: I will.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: Ron and I will. We'll bring it to the club.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Just pause that. Just put that aside. Send it to me.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: I'll order a box. We'll see what's up.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: As long as we don't get in trouble. That's totally legal?
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's totally legal.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: It didn't say that in the other thing. It didn't
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: say pre-embargo.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: Here's a review. First five-pack I bought was not good.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Every single cigar was plugged and didn't have a smooth
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: and easy draw. Not just from this particular cigar, but
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Camacho as a whole.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: And he still gave him four stars?
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: However, the handwritten thank you card I received, I never forgot.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: It gave Cigar City a second chance to the latest
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: five-pack I bought. It was well worth the price. It's
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: a sad day when the Cuba tobacco bundlers for this
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: cigar are all used up. This may be my number
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: one favorite cigar hands down. The transition between each third
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: is absolutely incredible. So the first five-pack sucked, and the
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: second five-pack was insane.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: Interesting.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Huh. Well, they're cheap, so.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Have— They have ten reviews total, seven or fives, and
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: three or fours. I'm just saying. Eight.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: All right. Take a swing at five cigars. Fuck it.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: You can handle it. Yeah, we'll see what's up. Let's
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: say you get beat at it.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: We'll be all right. I bought dumber shit.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: No.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: For sure. How's that fucking Corvette you got, baby? How's
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: that thing?
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Somebody wants to buy it from me. You know who? Who?
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Jay McGraw.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Does he?
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: He can get one of those. He can get one built.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: You don't want to sell yours. Yours is yours.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Yours is set up for you. Yeah, that's my car.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: That thing's beautiful, man. Yeah, you can't sell that. You
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: have to keep that. Someday when you die, that'll go
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: on auction. It'll be worth a fuckload of money. That
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: thing is beautiful. And it's got a bar in the trunk.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: It doesn't have it anymore. I took it out because
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: it didn't have a top because I wanted that bar
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: for whatever fucking reason, Joe.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Did you get Colvin in Austin? Did they do the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: work on it? I think they did, right?
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Casey? Yeah, he's the best.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: They've done some of the work. Some of it was
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: done in Atlanta. I mean, the basic build was done
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: in Atlanta, but the setup on it was done by
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Kurt Busch's race team. He was testing tires at his
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: oval track. And he said, bring it out here. Because
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: he knew I was building it. And he said, I'll
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: have a guy set it up for you.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's awesome.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: And so there's footage on the internet of him driving
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: at 170 miles an hour on an oval track. And
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: me going, what the fuck, dude? He's doing donuts in it.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: I'm like, god damn, I just had that fucking paint job.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: You could drive it. Set it up. And he said,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: we need to drop that front end an inch in there.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: And I said, well, yeah, what if we drop that front? Ron,
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: we need to drop the front end an inch. You
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: don't need to ask questions. I'm like, okay, drop the
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: front end an inch, buddy. You know more about this
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: shit than I do, don't you?
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: Those guys, I can't really drive. I can drive. I mean,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I've been around a track a few times. I know
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: how to drive. But not like these guys. No, they
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: feel things that you and I wouldn't feel. They're like, oh,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: the left camber is off. This is off. There's something
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: going on.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: It's, you know.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: They have all, you know, the understeer is off, something's off.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: I don't like these tires. Like, they feel it with
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: their ass.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. And they did a beautiful fucking job on it.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: And it's so much fun to drive. It scares me
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: a little bit because, you know, it's just got so
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: much power.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: It's so light.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: And nothing to it. But running over 500 horsepower, I
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: just had fuel injection put on it. Because it was
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: running kind of rough early on, you know, when I'd
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: get a start and start cold. But now it just, boom, boom. Yeah.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Was it a carburetor set up before that?
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: Those stink, too. The problem is they make your whole
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: car stink like gasoline.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Like, whew.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: I used to like that.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: I still like the smell of gasoline.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: There's something about you getting in an old muscle car.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: You smell that gasoline. You're like, yeah, America. It's just
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: a lot of it is nostalgia, you know. Nostalgia from
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: the time when I was a kid, muscle cars were
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: the thing.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: Well, mine was born the same year I was, 1956.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: So it's been around 70 years, that car, just like me,
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: still running, just like me.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Right, but it's got all new parts.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not the same car.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: We've got to work on that with you.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: We could have driven away what we didn't use.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the same with mine, my 65. There's nothing
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: in that other than the outside.
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Right, that's all mine is too. Some of the frame,
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: I mean everything.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Dashboard and some of that stuff. Everything else, you know,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: it's got an Art Morrison chassis on it and coilover
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: springs and disc brakes and supercharger. It's got an LS
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: engine in it. That thing is, there's nothing about that that's.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: An old car. I got to tell you, that year's
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: is the prettiest Corvette I've seen. When I first saw
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: that one, I was like, man, I didn't think anybody
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: could beat me in the Corvette department. That thing's stunning.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: That thing's a dream boat.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: When I first saw it, I was like, oh, shit.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: When I first saw it, it was a lot different.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: I brought it to my friend Steve Strope. When I
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: first saw it, it had the grossest interior. It had
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: cheap Corvette bucket seats from maybe like a C4 Corvette
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: or a C5. They were terrible seats. And the interior sucked,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: and the shifter sucked. And it was a little underpowered.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: It didn't have the supercharger in it. And I brought
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: it to Steve Strope. But it did have the chassis.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: And so we upgraded the suspension. And then he upgraded
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: everything else and completely redid the interior and put, like,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: really solid bucket seats that grip you and wider tire
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: and brakes set up. And we got those cool wheels.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Those wheels are sick.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what really set it off.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Show a photo of that, Jamie. There's a photo of
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: me with Jay Leno when I did Jay Leno's garage
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: with it. The wheels are controversial. People either love them
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: or they hate them. I fucking love them. I think
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: it just... I wouldn't like them on... I don't think
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: on many cars, but on that car, it's like the
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: perfect wheel for it.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: What's that green car? I saw you driving out last night.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's my other Corvette.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Look at that son of a bitch. Look
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: at that.
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: Those wheels rule, dude.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Those are fucking badass wheels, man. They rule for that car.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: That thing is sick. So that was all red. The
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: stripe was red. Steve Strope turned it black.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: Did the wheels and did everything. He really tuned it
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: in nice where it's just dialed in.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's badass.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: It's so fun, man. That's me and Jay. He's the
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: only other guy that's driven it other than me. I
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: think it's fun. And again, it weighs nothing. It's probably
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: got 550 horsepower now with the supercharger.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I won't let anybody drive mine, but I'll let
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: you drive it. All right.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Let's go. Well, you know we're setting up a studio
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: at the track.
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: A what?
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: We're setting up another studio at the racetrack.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. You told me about that at the races
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: a couple years ago or whatever it was.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Sometime around November-ish, we'll start doing podcasts out of there.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: I hope to get it done right around the time
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: Formula One is in town. That would be fun. So
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: I can get some drivers on and do some podcasts
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: from there. So we'll be able to go around the track.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Are you going to do all of them in there?
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: No, some of them. Both places. So we'll be able
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: to go around the track, take guys around the track.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: Take people that have never been around the track. And
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: what I want to do is, like, bring in car companies. Like, so,
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: you know, Mustang has this new dark horse Mustang.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: It's crazy.
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: 600 horsepower, crazy Mustang. Like, let's let people drive it.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: You want to sell some Mustangs? Let these guys drive
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: it just for funsies. We'll take some pictures and then
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: we'll do a podcast. Talk some shit, you know, with whatever, musicians, comics, people.
• 36:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: And then, you know, have fun on the racetrack.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we see a ton of those guys out at
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: Driftwood out of my golf course. A lot of those
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: guys are golfers, and they all go out there and
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: play golf whenever they're in town.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm sure. Race car driving and golfing. You know,
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: I really wish I could get into golf, and I
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: probably will someday.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: I probably will.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: I'll probably be forced into it.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: It's a lot like shooting a bow.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Don't tell me that, because then I can't do it.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, in that you never do the exact same
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: thing twice. You know, the shot's going to be either
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: further or shorter or the wind's going to be coming
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: from some other way or whatever. So you really have to.
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: And the big difference is when you cock a bow
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: or whatever you call it, that's where all the power is, right?
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: It's already in there. It's built in. You don't have
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: to generate it now. Right. You just aim it. But golf,
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: you have to generate all the power with your body. Yeah.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Which is hard to learn how to do.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Well, I watched Jamie. I watch Jamie do it all
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the time. You ever seen Jamie whack a ball? That
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: fucking dude can get some distance. Jamie can whack a ball.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: Jamie, you want to come out to Driftwood and play
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: golf with me?
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: I'd love to play at Driftwood.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Huh?
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: Driftwood's a great place. I'd love to play there anytime.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I'll take you out there.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: What's your furthest drive?
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, it's all dependent, but I've hit it
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: over 300 yards, which isn't that important, as Ron would know.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: It's all about what hole you're hitting it on and
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: is it worth it hitting it 300 yards in that hole.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: How far can you drive a ball?
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: You know, I hit the ball at 235, 240, something
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: like that. But, you know, if I really get into one,
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: I catch a sweet spot, you know, maybe 255, which
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: is nothing compared to 300. But if you find a
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: 70-year-old dude that can do it, then.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: What is like an elite golfer, like the best driver?
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: How far do they go?
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: It would be Rory McIlroy probably at about 325 average.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: So 100 yards. They hit the ball 100 yards further
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: than me.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I played with– Jamie, you're only 25 yards off of
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: some of the best golfers?
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no.
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: That's not how I would even word it.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're in the middle of the fairway.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: You're saying like how far have I ever hit it,
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: which is what I'm answering. It's not how far do
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: I hit it, which is like your average. Would you
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: take out your tops, take out your lows?
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: I see what you're saying.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: What's your average?
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Well, that's very humble of you. I'd be– Bragging my
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: ass off.
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: 300 yards, bitch.
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: No, because then I'm.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: On their ass.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: I can't prove it.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Fucking hat.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: I'm on their ass. I'm going to hit 320. Have
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: you seen those guys that go to those driving ranges
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: and they have these crazy swings where they completely spin
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: and then rotate their body? They almost do a 180
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: and then smash it. Those guys, it's got to be
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: way over 300.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're hitting it four.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Sometimes 500 yards in some cases. That's crazy. They're using
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: specialized equipment. They're playing in a specialized place.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: But they still can't play the game of golf. Right.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: That's different. Right. Or usually. I mean, usually there might
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: be a two or three handicap. They'll be decent at golf. Right.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: But the elite guys, they can't touch them in the game.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a similarity in pool, and that's the break shot.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: This guy's the current champion.
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: 579.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: Jesus, Kyle.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That's insane.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a fucking half a mile, isn't it? It is.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: This isn't even like 425. This is on a course.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: He's probably got a three wheel.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: Oh my God. He's a big dude.
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: He's also playing out and he's getting a little bit
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: of help with elevation out there. You can tell he's
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: out in the mountains.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: A little help.
• 40:03
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: A little help.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: But that's what you want. You want to hit it
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: on the green. That's kind of what's way more important.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: 410 yards. Yeah, if you can do that. That's bonkers.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: That's bonkers. Wait until some of those, like, super athlete
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: NFL players get involved in golf.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: LeBron's gotten involved recently.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: Oh, God.
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: And he started a YouTube channel, but he obviously doesn't
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: have a ton of time to play.
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Because he's busy.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: But his growth in the year he's played is pretty remarkable.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: He's a super athlete. Same with Justin Gaethje.
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: He's really good to start, but he's played forever.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Justin?
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: Didn't he say he took six months off or three
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: months off and played every single day?
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Well, what happened was when he got hurt in the
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: Max Holloway fight, he didn't do nothing for a long time.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: And he just let his body heal, let his brain heal.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: And he played golf every day for like a year.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: And DC was saying, like, dude, he got so fucking good.
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: But of course, he's an athlete. Like, if you're a
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: world champion MMA fighter, you can kind of do anything
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: if you set your mind to it. You can play golf.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: He could skateboard. He could do whatever the fuck he wants.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Because those guys also are ridiculously flexible, right?
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: He's not that flexible. He's loose, though.
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: That's kind of what matters more. I mean, I went
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: to stretch zone today. You know, that's where I go to.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: You go to stretch zone? Do you go to someone
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: stretches you?
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: It's the best thing in the world, man. It's kind
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: of resistant stretching, which it takes an hour. And they
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: just have you on a table and they're just bending
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: you around. And, boy, you can play some golf when
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: you get off of that. Really? Nothing frees up your
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: lower back. You've got to be able to.
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: How many people are doing it?
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Just one person.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: One guy's just holding you down and twisting you.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but they've also got straps where they strap you
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: to the table. So, I mean, they can do things
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: to you.
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: That you can't do to yourself.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: You just can't get that kind of stretch in.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Interesting.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: And I fucking love the place. And it seems like,
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: and it's never busy, and it seems like that, because
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: there are tons of old guys out there playing golf.
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: Every one of them should be on that table. It
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: fixes everything.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: Do you do anything to work out, to, like, strengthen
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: your body other than playing golf? No. You should probably do, like,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: a light kettlebell routine.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to do a kettlebell, but maybe some
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: rubber bands or something.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: Kettlebells are not hard, man. You don't have to be
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: lifting something heavy.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: I've seen video of you doing it. It looked like
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: it would break me in half.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you don't have to do that weight. You
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: can do a real light weight. A light weight is
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: a great workout. Sometimes I do, like if I'm not
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: feeling that good, I'll do just a routine that I
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: do with.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: A 35-pound kettlebell.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: If I just want to break a sweat, I don't
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: want to really exert myself, but I want movement and
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: I want my tissue to loosen up, I'll do a
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: whole routine with a 35-pound kettlebell.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no doubt about it. I should do more.
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: It would be great for your golf, though. There's a
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: lot of things you do like rotational twists things that
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: would be really good for just generating force with your
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: drive and just control of your body, just overall body control.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I know that I lost some muscle when I
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: was just losing weight with Ozempic or whatever it was.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: And so I know I could get more. And I
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: know that the whole secret to me getting to be
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: 80 and still mobile is leg strength. Yeah. And I
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: was really kind of impressed with myself in Switzerland because
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: I was getting around pretty good, you know, because I
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: do– you know, I do– whatever testosterone and human growth
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: and all that kind of stuff. So it does make
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: my muscles stronger. Cause I was, I was doing things.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: I'm like, there's no way I get up to the
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: top of that thing. And I'm just chug on up
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: there out of breath, but my legs are fine. You know? Yeah.
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: It makes you, your body behave like a younger body.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: That's the whole key. People miss out on that because
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: they're afraid of the stigma attached to taking testosterone. Like, look,
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: your body doesn't make it anymore. When your body makes it,
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: you feel better. Get all this ideological shit out of
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: your head. especially like a lot of my like left-wing
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: friends are very adverse to the idea of taking testosterone. Like, look,
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: you don't have to take a lot of it. It's not,
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: it's not what we're saying. We're not saying get on steroids.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: What we're saying is bring your body back to levels
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: that it had, like when you were 30 and you'll
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: feel so much better. Your immune system will work better.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: You'll sleep better.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: Look, I mean, just look at me, the difference from
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: when I came to Austin and you came to Austin and, uh, And, uh,
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: and then I was still drinking really, really hard and
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: ridiculously hard. And, uh, but I was 30 pounds heavier and, uh, sluggish.
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: I never felt good. And, uh, and today I just, after,
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: you know, just doing, going to ways the well and,
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: you know, taking all that stuff. And I got to
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: tell you, I feel better than I haven't fucking ever. Uh,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: I am just, I think that, that everything in my
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: life is, is stronger than it was then. I mean,
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: I think the stand-up's even stronger.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I think it is too. And I think you add
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: on to that like a little bit of weightlifting. I
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: don't mean anything crazy. And one of the best things
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: you could do is what's called a farmer's carry. Just
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: get a couple dumbbells and just walk. You can walk
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: around your property. You can walk around your street. I
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: do like a couple hundred yards and then a couple
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: hundred yards back. I go up a hill and then
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: I go down a hill. The whole thing takes me
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: like 15 minutes. It's phenomenal for your body. Like carrying things,
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: like carrying heavy things is really good for you, man.
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: It's great for your grip strength. It's great for your back,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: your core, like everything. Everything felt like right when I
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: first started doing it, my body was like, oh, yeah,
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: do more of this. It's like intuitively I was like, oh,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: this is tying everything together. Like moving weight around I
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: think is very important. Not just standing there and like
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: pressing and doing stuff like stationary. I think there's some
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: real benefit in like walking with stuff because you've got
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: to balance it. It's heavy and you're moving around. Your
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: grip gets tired and you have to set it down
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: and then you fucking– How.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: Much weight are you carrying, 200 yards?
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: 140 pounds.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, fuck, dude. I saw two little weights in your hands.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Well, these– the kettle– this might be a different time
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: you saw me, but I don't think there's any video
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: of me doing that. But these kettlebells, they're each 70 pounds.
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: So I have one in each hand. So it's 140
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: pounds total, and I'm walking up this hill, and then
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: I'm walking down the hill. And I do it every
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: other day. It's phenomenal.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: And then you work out every single day.
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, every day. Every day I do something. I have
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: to do something. Just for sanity.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I guess if you're not moving forward, you're moving backwards.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: I just want to maintain and also sanity. The real
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: thing is sanity. The world's nuts. Like, one great way to, like,
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: alleviate some of the pressure of paying attention to how
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: nuts the world is, is do something really hard. Do
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: a hard workout. Do a yoga class. Do something difficult.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: Just something that takes you out of it for a
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: minute and just relaxes you.
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: I'd like to get back into yoga again. I did
• 46:53
  Speaker 2: that for a while, and it was so good for me.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: That's one of the best things, I bet, for golf.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, it is. No doubt about it. And then
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: you play forever.
• 46:58
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: Do yoga. I had this hot little yoga instructor come
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: over to my house. And it was just a great
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: way to just fucking start the day. And I did
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: it every day.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: What happened?
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: Well, other girlfriends didn't like her because she was too hot.
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know if I'm willing to fade
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: all the heat. Just for some yoga where all my
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: motives suck anyway. I just wanted to be near the.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: There's something very hot about yoga ladies too. Like a
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: really good one.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Oof. Yeah, so I'm going to get back into something.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: We met a female trainer the other day that's friends
• 47:33
  Speaker 2: with John Paul and Eloise, and so we're going to
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: hire her to start coming over to the house. Oh,
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: there you go.
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: That's a good move.
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: Start working it. Yeah, because I'll do more with a woman. Really? Yeah.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: Just to show her that you can do it?
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: You know, just, I don't know. I just show up
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: for it if it's a woman. For some fucking reason.
• 47:56

• 49:35
  Speaker 2: How come people are ragging on our club, man?
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: Who's ragging on our club?
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: I've watched it on TikTok before. Goddamn mothership.
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: It's a walled garden. Someone warned me about that a
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: long time ago. This philosopher guy that I know. He said,
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: you got to be careful because, like, it looks like
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: you guys are having too much fun and other people
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: can't get in. And they feel like it's a walled garden.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: They want to shit on it. You know, the thing is, like,
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: people are like, what? Because we're all friends in there.
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: It's because, like, it's a very intimate group of friends.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: And we don't know when somebody else is going to
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: come in there and listen to us bullshitting and then
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: go jabber away to some fucking buddy else.
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: Or get upset at some of the things that someone
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: says because some people say horrible things in that room
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: and don't even mean it because it's funny. They say
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: it to be funny. And then there's– I've seen some
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: of that. One of the things that I've seen is
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: people that are talking about like the kind of comedy
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: that they hear there. And what they're talking about is
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: Brian Holtzman. And they were talking about this guy, he's
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: yelling about gay people.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: Hold on.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: You're talking about Brian Holtzman. What that is is like
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: the comedy version of death metal.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: Death metal. Some people like death metal.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: You don't have to like death metal.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: And you don't have to watch it or listen to it.
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: You might be into opera, but that guy is fucking hilarious.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: And offstage, the sweetest, nicest guy you ever want to meet.
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: Nicest person there is.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: Onstage, he becomes this fucking maniac. But it's like satire.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: It's on purpose. It's not a real person.
• 51:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: It took me a while to get it.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: It's brilliant. He's one of the best comics alive. He's
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: one of the funniest guys I know. He's fucking hilarious.
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: Is it offensive? 100%. Yeah. Some of the things he's
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: going to say will offend the fuck out of you.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: They will offend the fuck out of you. They offend me.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, Jesus Christ, Holtzman. But you've got to leave
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: room for that. There's always got to be room for everything.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: There's room for everything. And if it doesn't work, the
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: people won't laugh. And if they don't laugh, he won't
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: come back. You know, after a while, that's it. But
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: they laugh. We laugh hard. And you could say this
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: is awful that they're laughing at that. And you got
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: a point. But that's not what it is.
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: Right. No, I'm telling you, I didn't get it at first.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: And because I saw him eat at one time and
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: I was like, because he can, you know, he can
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: find a crowd that's tough.
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: That can happen. But a lot of it now, he's
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: got his own crowd.
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, his own crowd. They're looking for it.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: The other thing that people keep saying is that it's
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: like a right-wing club. The vast majority of the people
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: that are in that club, working in that club, are left-wing.
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: That's crazy talk. People just assume because they connect Tony,
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: you know, and people also connect.
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: Me to that.
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: Mostly I think that's because they don't know me. And
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: because I look right-wing and because I did kind of
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: help Trump. But other than that.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Other than that... You think that might be what sent
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: him over there?
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: Left wing my whole life.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: Well, I know you have very left wing views on
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: a lot of fucking things.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: I have very left wing views on a lot of things.
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: But I also recognize when government is taking over our lives.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: And what we were sold with the Trump administration would
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: be that would end. And, you know, there'd be a
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: drain in the swamp. Obviously, it's not been ideal, like
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: in that regard.
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: I think it's– yeah, well, you know how I feel
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: A lot of people laugh.
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: And I always have. I mean, I'm left of– certainly
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: left of some of it, but I also carry a weapon,
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: and I believe in the death penalty. But for the
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: most part– I'm a left-leaning faction in the green room,
• 53:13
  Speaker 2: you know? You and Brian Simpson.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: Brian Simpson's very left, too. But, you know, Tony's the
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: only one who's, like, on the right. Tony's, like, legitimately right-wing.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: No, yeah, he's MAGA. That's kind of, well, I guess.
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if you would say that. But he's, like,
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: pretty openly right-wing. To the point where me and him
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: argue about left-wing, right-wing stuff all the time. But it's like,
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: The problem is not left wing, right wing. The problem
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: is like rational and insane.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: Like the open borders was insane.
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: That was horrible fucking. Yeah. Horrible fucking move.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: The COVID mandates were insane. Forcing people to get vaccinated
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: was insane. All that stuff was insane. That stuff scared
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: the shit out of me. The censorship online was insane.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: All the woke nonsense forcing you to use pronouns and
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: forcing you to never dead name someone or you get
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: kicked off of Twitter for life. There was so much
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: insanity that we needed some sort of a break moving
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: away from that. That was my position. I was like,
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: this is going to continue because like obviously Biden was
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: not really the president for four years.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: So the people that were all were running the country
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: will continue to be running the country. These non-elected people,
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't be him. And then when she's in, it
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: would be the same fucking people. It would be the
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: same people.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: I voted for her.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: I bet you did.
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: I did. Because I wouldn't vote for Trump. And also,
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: they were going after women's rights. Well, I'm going to
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: side with the women because I don't like any kind
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: of candidate, but I'm going to vote. You mean abortion.
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: And then the women didn't go.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: You mean abortion, right?
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: They're like a dumbass holding my dick going, well, where
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: were y'all?
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: When you say women's rights, you mean abortion, right?
• 54:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because, I mean, I'm going to be a grandfather
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: in a few months. I don't know if you knew
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: that or not. Congratulations.
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: That's awesome. I'm so fucking excited about it. And, I mean,
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: it's just, I mean, it's happening a little late in
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: life for me. But, you know, now I'm looking like, well,
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: if I play my cards right and I live as
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: long as my mother did, I can see this kid
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: through fucking high school.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: The abortion rights thing is a weird one. You know,
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: it's like, I don't think I have a right to
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: tell anybody what to do with their body. I'm not
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: a woman. I've never been pregnant. I have no idea
• 55:29
  Speaker 1: what that's like. I have no idea where some guy
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: gets you pregnant and then takes off and you've got
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: to make a decision. Or if there's medical issues coming up.
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: It should be between a family and their doctor. Yeah.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: So I really, I can't say anything. But There's a
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: weirdness to like late-term abortions. And I know most people say, well,
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: late-term abortions are only in the case where it threatens
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: the mother's life and no one really wants to do that.
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: I know someone who got a late-term abortion in New York.
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: And it was just because the boyfriend didn't want to
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: have the baby and they waited too long and she
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: was pregnant. And it scared the shit out of me.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: I'm like, you guys just killed a baby. I'm not
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: saying that happens all the time, but I'm saying just
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: the fact that that can happen scares the shit out
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: of me.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Well, aren't there laws against– I mean even before these
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: laws were passed, weren't there laws saying, well, not pass this?
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: What did they just pass in Massachusetts? Didn't they just
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: pass some new abortion law in Massachusetts? I think the
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: rational thinking is that most women would never want to
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: abort their baby late term, right? And if someone is
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: doing that, it has to be extenuating circumstances. And that
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: it has to be because of, and to eliminate that
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: possibility and to put someone through like life-threatening situation because
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: they really do need an abortion and the law says
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: they can't have an abortion unless they get some exemption.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: So they have to prove it. And then the person,
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: their life is at risk. So I could see how
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: you would say we will allow late-term abortion so that
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: this can never present itself. Massachusetts expands abortion access to
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: any point during pregnancy. On Monday, it joined nine states
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: and Washington, D.C. in eliminating gestational restrictions on abortions. So
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: what does this mean exactly? Let's scroll down. I think
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: this means any time during a pregnancy. So this means
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: like eight months, two weeks, you can get an abortion.
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: Most abortions happen when the first trimester. Very few take
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: place after 24 weeks. The previous limit for abortion in
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: the Bay State. Those that do occur after that point
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: often involve situations in which doctors discovered a fetal anomaly
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: late in the pregnancy. Massachusetts law was championed by major
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: medical groups, including the National Society for Maternal Fetal Medicine,
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: the Massachusetts Medical Society, and the state's chapter of the
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. The law received support
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: from Kate Dineen, the abortions rights activist whose son died
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: in utero at 33 weeks. What is it saying?
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: So a lot of people are scared of this because
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: you can have an abortion like really late when the
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: baby is a baby.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, fuck, I'm not for that, but
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: I'm for a woman's right to choose. But for the
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: same reason you just said, I'm not a woman. I
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: don't know what it's like. I don't want the government
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: involved in my— Well.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: There's some people that think even in the cases of
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: rape and incest, you shouldn't be able to, which is crazy.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: Well, right, because then you get to, if you're a rapist,
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: you get to go, I want that chick to have
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: my baby. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, well, whatever.
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: What are we, in the medieval days? In the old
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: Viking days.
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: So what are we going to do about the Texas Senate?
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: You met Tallarico. You liked the guy, right?
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: I did like him. I like his thoughts on the
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: Ten Commandments and schools. public schools. I don't think, I
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: think he's right. And he's a very religious guy. And
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: his position is when you put the Ten Commandments in
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: public schools, what you're really doing is you're forcing Christianity
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: to them and you're not, you're not, you're probably pushing
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: them away from Christianity. You're like forcing it on them.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: And If you're going to do that, how can you
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: do that and not have like scripture from the Hindu text,
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: scripture from the Book of Mormon, Muslim, Islamic text? Why
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: is it just the Ten Commandments?
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why isn't there a separation of church and state?
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: That's a state-run organization.
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 59:46
  Speaker 1: So his position is that, and I think he's probably
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: right about this, otherwise he'd get sued. is that there's
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: a couple like very wealthy people who are Christian nationalists
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: and they want to take over like the school system
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: and turn Texas like completely Christian. And yeah, I think
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: that's scary. That kind of shit is scary because pushing
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: whatever your ideology is. Look, if you invite people into
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: your church and, you know, you're, a person who is
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: of exemplary character, and you're a wonderful guy, and there's
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: something about this guy. Like, wow, this guy, the way
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: he lives his life, man, I think he's really cool
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: and kind. I like to see what this church is
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: all about. That's how you get people to be interested
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: in what you're doing and the way you're promoting life.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: You can't be force-fed.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: But you're forcing it on people. You're just going to
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: push them away from it. It always happens that way.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: You force it. You can't decide that your way is
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: the way that other people have to live. That's the
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: whole idea of America is you're supposed to have the
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: freedom to do whatever the fuck you want as long
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: as you're not hurting others. And if you want to
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: believe in whatever, some ancient religion that people gave up
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 1: on thousands of years ago, who fucking cares?
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: Go ahead.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I first noticed him when he really came out
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: against that school voucher program, which I was against also.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: What was that?
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: Which one was that?
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: School vouchers, and he lost. He fought so hard against
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: it because they wanted to give school vouchers so you
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: could take this money and go to a private school.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 2: But the only people that were using them were people
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: that already had their kids in private schools. Most Texas
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: counties don't have a private school, and a private school
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: can also decide who they want for no reason. They
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: can eliminate anybody. They'll take a student or not take
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: a student. Right. And that came out of the public
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: school system, that money, and went into the private school system.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 2: And Tallarico really fought hard against that because we need
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: better teachers. We need more teachers. We need the public
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: school system beefed up. We're getting the shit beat out
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: of us in education. And I think Tallarico was really,
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: really good for that. And I think he's a smart,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: honest man. I hope he never gets sucked into the
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: corruption of all the money like most people do, but
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 2: You really can't put Ken Paxton back in office in
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: the state of Texas. That guy's just too corrupt. He's
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: just a bad egg, and we don't need him around here.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of shenanigans with weed in this state
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: right now. There's a lot of alcohol lobby money, and
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are trying to ban weed, and
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: they're trying to make it a felony.
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: They did it.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: I know, but they're fighting it in court now. There's
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 1: a bunch of cases. It's really stupid.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: It was such a big step backwards. I was asking
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: one of these guys that owns a head shop that
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: I like. I go in and talk to him every
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: once in a while. I don't like that Delta 8
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: or whatever they were selling anyway. But these guys really
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: went all in on these businesses that were legal. And
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, snap, here's the stuff you've got
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: to take out. What do you got left? And that's
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: really brutal for somebody that really, you know, weighed it
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: all in.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 1: Billions of dollars lost, thousands of jobs.
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: And I guess they burned the weed. That's what I
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: asked him. I said, what did you do with all
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: that weed? Crazy.
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: It's also, look, regulate it and tax it, you fucking idiots.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: You're missing out on so much money. And also leave
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: grown adults to do whatever they want to do. You're
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: not going to convince people that weed is fucking PCP.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: This ain't Reef or Madness days. Everyone's been smoking weed
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: since they were in high school.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: No matter what kind of propaganda you throw out there,
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: we know it's bullshit.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: We know what weed is now. Can you go crazy
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: if you smoke too much weed? Yeah, don't smoke too
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: much weed. Can you go crazy if you drink too much? Yeah,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: don't drink too much. It's the same goddamn thing. Don't
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: tell people what to do. You don't have the right,
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: especially when I look at these guys. You guys are dorks.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 1: You dorks can't decide what other people do and don't do.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: And it seems like enough of them would have died
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: that a new set of faces would come around.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: They're going to lose elections, I'll tell you that, because
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: young people aren't tolerating this bullshit anymore. Like, this is stupid.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: And not even young people, most people. Most people realize
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: the only way you can come to this conclusion, that
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: there should be laws and felonies, that people should be
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: locked in cages for weed, is if you are either
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 1: retarded or you're on the take.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: It's one of those two things.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: One of those two things. Either you're too.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: Fucking stupid to be a leader or you're on the take. Right.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: Because this is dumb. And also, you're missing out on
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: so much tax revenue. How much does California make in
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: tax revenue? How much does Colorado make in tax revenue?
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: A fucking buttload.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: A buttload.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: And, you know, even when some weed was legal in Texas,
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: I got mine from Oklahoma anyway. You shouldn't say that online.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: People, they'll come for you.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 2: They will.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: It's probably like getting those Cuban cigars. Fake, not real
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: Cuban cigars. How much revenue does California get every year?
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: There's a state-by-state breakdown.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: Okay. And we can put that money in the public schools. $ 7. 765 billion.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: Billion dollars.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: Billion dollars.
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: That is fucking crazy. That's so much money. They're missing
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: out on $ 7 billion. And they're missing out on how
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: much did the tax, how much did the alcohol lobby
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: give you? Could have been $ 7 billion.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think so.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: So somebody is either retarded or corrupt.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: Corrupt, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and I'm so sick of it,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: you know. I'm so sick of it.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: Texas could be making a shitload of revenue with legal marijuana.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: And bring in some goddamn gambling. We're sending everybody right
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: across the border to fucking Windstar, although I work there.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: So don't quit going. But they just dump money into
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: Windstar because Casino in the World is about 300 yards
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: north of Texas.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: What do you think about that? Do you think that
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: casinos should be everywhere? And what do you think about
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: the argument that if you're promoting gambling and you have
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: these casinos, you're going to ruin people's lives because you're
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: going to give them easy access to something.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: That they're addicted to? They've already got access with fucking DraftKings.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 2: You can gamble from anywhere. But, you know, they can
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: still go to somewhere else and do it. You know,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: they go right across the border, go to Louisiana, go
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: to or fly into Vegas for seventy nine dollars. Right.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: But there's an argument that you don't want it in
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: your state. There's an argument that, like, if you really
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: care about the people in your state, you would probably
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: make it more difficult to go to these casinos.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: We have horse racing here, right? Do we? Yeah.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: You gamble on that?
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: Not much, but it's they move Rio Dosa down to Texas.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: The races that were in Rio Dosa, New Mexico or
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: New America.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: I remember when I was playing pool in New York,
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: the real gambling junkies, they would start their day at
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 1: off-track betting. They would go and gamble on horse races,
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: and then they would come over to the pool hall
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: later in the afternoon.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: And lose the rest of it.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, or have stories about.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: How they lost. That's a wild group of folks that
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 2: you were hanging out with in the New York playing pool,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: wasn't it? Oh, yeah.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 1: Homeless people, junkies, pool hustlers. Like some of the wildest
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: people I've ever met in my life. It was really fun.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: There was this one place I used to go to
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: in New York City. It was called Chelsea Billiards. And
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: it was a 24-hour place. And there regularly you have
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: guys that were sleeping under tables.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 2: While it was open?
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because it was open 24 hours. So at nighttime,
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: and they didn't get games, they would just crawl under
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: a table and go to sleep. Because there's a whole
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: downstairs area that was rarely used unless it was like
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: really packed. But it was a real pool hall. A
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: real 24-hour pool hall. I met so many degenerates there.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: There's a great book about that place. There's a great
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: book called Playing Off the Rail by this guy David McCumber.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: He was Hunter S. Thompson's editor when Hunter S. Thompson was,
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: I think he was working for a newspaper in the
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: Pacific Northwest for a while. McCumber's a very, very interesting guy,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: great writer. And he took my friend Tony Anagoni, who
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: was a world-class professional pool player, And they traveled around
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: the country gambling and wrote this book. It's a great book.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 1: Really accurate, honest book.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 2: Playing Off the Rail?
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: It's called Playing Off the Rail is the name of
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: the book. And the guy, Tony, who was a friend
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 1: of mine, I did commentary with him on a pool
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: match once in California back in the 90s. and hung
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: out with him a bunch of times, played pool with him.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: And then one day I got a call from a
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: friend of mine that told me he jumped off the bridge.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: No shit.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 3: He was 17 when he did that.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: He was 17. He was stricken with road fever. No, no,
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: 22 years later he got the chance. So when he
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: was 17, he tried to do it. So 22 years
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: later he got the chance to follow that dream, not
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: as a player, but as a stake horse financial backer
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: for Tony Anagoni a non-smoking macrobiotic eating renaissance pool hustler
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: student of eastern religion and master of the pure green
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: felt poetry of the dead stroke Tony was a brilliant
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: guy like an incredible pool player and again didn't smoke
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: didn't drink he would play for like 24 hours and
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: would only drink water He plays long gambling matches with
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: high-end pool players. He was a world champion caliber pool player.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: But he jumped off the bridge, man.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, shit. Yeah.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: I don't know what was going on. I wasn't close
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: with him at the time. I hadn't seen him in
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: a few years. He was living in San Francisco. I
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: was living in L.A. And then somebody called me. It's
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: such a scary thing when you you don't know that
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: a guy would do that, and then they do it.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: You're always like, what could I have done? Could I
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: have said something? Sometimes someone will call you and say something,
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: and it picks you up. Joey Diaz will do that
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: all the time. He'll just call you up, tell you
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: he loves you.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he does that to me. He's the best.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: And I do it to him too. It's like, it
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: feels good. It's like you check in. You check in
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: with your friends. And sometimes when your friend's going through
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: it and you don't know the extent of it, like
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of men are stoic about that shit. They
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: don't tell you how bad they're suffering. They don't tell
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: you what's going on. You don't know until it's over.
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 1: And then you're always like, could I have said something?
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: Could I have done something? Should I have told other people?
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: What could I have done? Like Brody. Brody was a
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: rough one. Brody was a rough one. I had no idea.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: You know, I knew Brody was struggling. I never thought
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: he'd take his own life. I thought he was just, like,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: he just struggled, you know, like, to keep it together.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: But he would get on stage and he'd be brilliant.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: And I was like, this guy's clearly, like, great comic,
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: hilarious guy, awesome guy to be around. Everybody loved hanging
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: around with him. I was like, he'll be fine. I
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: had no idea. And then all of a sudden, you
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 1: get that call. You're like, Brody took his own life.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: And you're like, what?
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: No. You know?
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 1: Like, what?
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 2: What?
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 1: You can't even believe you don't believe it's real. It's like,
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: how would it say it again? I don't believe it's real.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: Well, if anybody ever says that I killed myself, I didn't,
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 2: I am not that kind of person. You go find
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 2: out Joe who killed me.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: I will find out.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I won't believe it. Yeah. I knew you would.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: I will. Oh, that's what I was going to tell
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: you that I went to that trip in Switzerland and, um,
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: And then we were taking a ride in a car
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: for two and a half hours from Zermatt to Interlaken.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: And I had this driver from England, Andrew, and he
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 2: had married a girl from Switzerland and moved there 12
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: years ago. And when I was in Paris, I really
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 2: was expecting to get some anti-American sentiment there. because they
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 2: don't really like us that much anyway. But I really
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: didn't feel it. And I'm like, oh, well, maybe I'm
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: building this up more than it is. But in Switzerland
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: and also in northern Italy, I felt like I'm getting
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: a cold shoulder in these places. And I asked him
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 2: about it. I said, is this in my head? And
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: he goes, mate, if you want to know the truth,
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: they don't like your fucking war. They don't like your war.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: Those guys can hit everybody but you, and you're slinging missiles,
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 2: and they also don't like the tariffs. If you're doing
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 2: things over there to fuck you up, they don't care.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: But if it fucks us up, yeah, we care. I'm like, well,
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 2: I didn't have anything to do with it. But that
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: war is sitting pretty, pretty nasty with just about everybody,
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: Everybody here, too. There's very few people here that think
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: it's a good idea. The only people that I've heard
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: that I think are very intelligent people that think it's
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: a good idea, one of them was Palmer Luckey. Palmer
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: Luckey is a tech guy, a very, very smart guy.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that he was on a
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: podcast and he was explaining was that Iran had ramped
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: up its missile production like above and beyond. And they
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: were like actively accelerating their missile program. And if they
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: did acquire a nuke, It would have been a real
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: problem because they have an insane reserve of missiles. This
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: is what he's saying. He's saying if we continue to
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 1: allow them to ramp that up– and obviously the other
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: thing people have said is the timing was poor and
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: that really if the United States was going to attack Iran,
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: they should have attacked Iran when they had the protests.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: When they had people in the streets and they were
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: revolting against the government and the government was executing civilians,
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 1: that's the time. And if they did it then, I
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: bet the whole world would be with them. And I
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: bet the people probably would be with them. The people
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: of Iran would be with them. Who knows what the
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: fuck would have happened? It would have been a different thing.
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: But the timing was way off. And his position is
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: also interesting because he makes weapons, right? He makes drones.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: He makes like super sophisticated military technology. But he does
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 1: it because he thinks– well, also it's his business. But
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: he does it– his rationale is that it's important to
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: have a very strong defense and that he's a patriot.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 1: That's his position. And his position is that this government
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: is a dangerous government and they were actively trying to
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: ramp up their missile program. Again, you have to take
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: it from perspective that he's also a weapons man.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: He's also– But he is a brilliant guy. Yeah, I'm
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: thinking– And it's not like they're– like the Iranian government
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: is really cool and we're misrepresenting them. They're fucking executing
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: people for protesting against the government. They're doing that in
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: the street. They run their government. They run their country with.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: An iron fist.
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 1: It's scary. They definitely sponsor terrorism. They definitely do. But
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: also they– They've been attacked. They've been overthrown. You know,
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: we installed their government.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: You know, like we monkeyed with it. Iran in the
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: 70s or the 50s, whatever it was, when you see
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: those photographs of it, like it was very Western. Like
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: they had a democracy.
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: It would look nice over there. Yeah.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: We fucked it all up. It was a big part
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: of us fucking it all up. And I bet a
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: lot of it had to do with oil.
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 2: I bet it did. I bet it did.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: It's so spooky. The kind of shit that. we've been
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: doing and they've been doing and all these governments have
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: been doing all around the world, monkeying with other people's
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: fucking countries. It's like, Jesus Christ, everybody's out there playing
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: Russian roulette. Like, what the fuck are you doing?
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Israel's right in the middle of all
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: that missile slinging also. But boy, they don't like it.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: They don't like it. And I don't think they understood
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: that the only thing that keeping Iran from bombing other
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: people was us. So when we started bombing them, we're like,
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: what the fuck? Yeah. I'm going to start shooting some
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 2: stuff out to Bahrain and Qatar.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: That's the other thing is all the other Gulf states
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: that support the attack in Iran. That's kind of nuts.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: There's all, you know, all those other countries like Saudi
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: Arabia and Qatar and all that. They support it. Like
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: they don't want Iran to get a nuclear weapon. They
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: don't want Iran to have that kind of power. But
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: most people in America are like, this was the whole
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: reason why one of the things that people loved about
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: Trump was no more bullshit wars.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: No more wars. No more unnecessary wars.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 2: That was the one thing I couldn't argue with. Yeah.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: You know, like, OK, well, yeah, we don't need to
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: be in a war. Yeah.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: And that's what we hoped. You know, but it seems
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: like we're in one.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: Seems like it. They won't call it that. But that's
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 2: what it seems like to me. What are they calling it?
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: A conflict? A military conflict. Same as Vietnam. Jesus Christ. Yeah.
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: I was like, that was a good idea.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 3: I looked up something crazy last night. I just, like,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 3: I think I asked Grocker one of the things. Like,
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 3: how many.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: Could you talk just a little louder?
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 4: Sure.
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: How many years has the United States been in conflicts?
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 3: I think just, like, in general total. And it said that, like,
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: only from the years from 1891 to 1897 were we
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: not in a conflict. And since World War II, we've
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 3: been in some sort of something every year.
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: Every single year since whatever.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 2: Not a thing like Switzerland. We're in all of them.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: All of them. And I think it's that a lot
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 2: of it is just exactly what you were talking about.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: The big machine that is defense.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: It's a huge machine. The budget is insane. The amount
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 1: of money is insane. And they want to keep making
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: that money.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: That's why we don't have our high-speed rails.
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 1: Also, they try to do that in California. It seems
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: like people stole the money. I don't know what the
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: fuck they did there. You know how much they spent
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: on the high-speed rail in California? It's insane. It's like
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 1: they haven't even laid the tracks yet. They've spent billions.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: They're way over budget. It's going to take forever. And
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: even then, there's a part that you have to take
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 1: a bus. You get to it. Yeah. Who was explaining
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 1: that to us?
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 2: It's not a high-speed bus either. A regular bus.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: No, it's a regular bus.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 2: Regular bus.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: You take the high speed, goes to a very short distance.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: You get off. You get on a bus. And you
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: go from, like, Bakersfield to L.A.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 2: On a bus.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: They spent billions of dollars on this.
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 2: They didn't figure out the end of it. Oh, it's
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 2: so stupid. I mean, you can take a bus where
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 2: you're going.
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 1: It's so stupid. And then they had Gavin Newsom, like,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: posed in front of trains the other day, did, like,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: a press conference, like, talking about how they're moving forward
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: with the high-speed rail. Like, bitch, that thing ain't ever
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 1: going to work. It's just a grift. They're just stealing money. Wow.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: Those goddamn condors.
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 1: What about the condors?
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're real.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: What do you mean?
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: I just don't think they're real. I don't think there's
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 2: a shortage of them. I don't. I think we just
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: got the right amount of condors, and it's nature's way
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: of taking care of itself. It's an ugly bird.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: So do you think that... When people were saying that
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: the condors were endangered, do you think that there's a
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: grift attached to that?
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 2: That's what I think.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 1: What would be the grift?
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: The grift is give us money so we can save
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: these condors. And then boom, you got money. And are
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: you saving condors with it? We don't know.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: Are you in a position that condors should be allowed
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: to go extinct? What? Should they be allowed to go extinct?
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: If they want to. Leave it up to the condors.
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 2: If they don't want to fuck anymore, quit fucking.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: One of the things that they've said was that a
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: lot of them were dying from lead poisoning, from bullets,
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: from hunters. And so they made the hunters switch over
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 1: to copper bullets. Do you know that? And that doesn't— California,
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 1: you have to have copper bullets now.
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 2: In your shotgun?
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and in rifles too. Like if you shoot an
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: elk with a rifle in California, you have to have
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 1: a copper bullet. No shit.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think— Do you use copper bullets anyway?
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 1: No, I don't.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 1: Really hunt with a rifle. Oh, you're just a bow guy, right?
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 1: But it's effective.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: They work.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: I've killed an elk with a copper bullet before. It
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: does work. I shot an elk in California with a rifle.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: But it's weird because I don't know if that's really
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: what's killing the condors.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: Does that really... How many birds die from lead poisoning
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 1: from bullets? That seems kind of.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 2: They fly awfully high.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 1: How many hunters are losing animals that there's that many
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 1: bullets that are just laying around that birds are eating?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think that's right. That seems
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: like a weird connection. Like, see, if a bird made
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: a habit of eating lead, yeah, that'd be fucking terrible
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 1: for you. But is that really affecting the population? There's
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 1: that much lead out there?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't think so.
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: It sounds kooky.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: But I don't know.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 2: I don't either.
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 1: But there's always these weird regulations they put down on
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: things to protect wildlife. It gets super squirrely. Is there
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: any data that shows that animals were dying from lead
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: poisoning for bullets? I wonder why they would make– because
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 1: like California just passed some crazy law where they made
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: 70 percent of all tires illegal.
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: I know. 70% of tires?
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 1: 70% of the tires that are being sold in California
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: will now be illegal.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: Because of what?
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 1: Some crazy new regulations about what kind of tires you're.
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 2: Allowed to have. What they're made out of?
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: How they're made, their construction method, the quality of them, blah, blah, blah,
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: how efficient they are, whatever it is. 70%. What are.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: They going to use for tires?
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 1: Well, they're just going to be able to sell 30%
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: of the tires. They're going to have to sell more
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: of those tires, but it's going to probably cost the
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: consumer a lot more money. It's probably going to fuck
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: up the manufacturers, fuck up their businesses. And it's some
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: regulation that's supposed to work with, it's supposed to save
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: gas somehow. The more efficient tires over time will save
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: millions of gallons of gas like Stay the fuck out
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: of people's business, you cunts. California has approved a new
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: replacement tire efficiency program, not a ban on tires you
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: already own. Right, but it bans the tires you can sell.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: This is a weird way to frame it.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, your tires are going to wear out,
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: and then you've got to replace them with these.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: It regulates which new replacement tires may be sold in
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: California for pasture vehicles. What changes? California Energy Commission unanimously
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: adopted the rule on August 17th, 2026. Its purpose is
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: to ensure replacement tires are, on average, at least as
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: energy efficient as original equipment tires fitted to new vehicles.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 1: The key technical measure is rolling resistance. Lower rolling resistance
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: generally means less energy is needed to keep the tire rolling,
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 1: which can improve gas mileage or EV range. So it's
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: basically like you can't buy cheap tires. You have to
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 1: buy the same kind of tires that your car came with.
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 2: Well, so they're really kind of putting a ban on
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: shitty tires. Are there people out there just making shitty
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: tires and they're trying to get rid of them?
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 1: Well, they're probably making tires that are less expensive and
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 1: still pretty good. Like if you're driving a Camry, do
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 1: you really need original equipment tires? Your car sucks.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: Your car has.
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, no, I would be looking.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 2: For the cheapest tire I could put on there just
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 2: to get to the next payday. Exactly.
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 1: So if you're broke and the difference is like a
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 1: $ 79 tire or a $ 59 tire and it's basically the
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 1: same to you.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, put them on the camera.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and now all of a sudden these tire shops,
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 1: they can't sell them anymore?
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: What?
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: So what if you have inventory? Do you have to
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: get rid of your inventory? Do I have to dump
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 1: all my– what if you're a guy, like you worked
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 1: at Tires R Us– And, you know, you said, you know,
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 1: it'd be cool if I could ensure that I had
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: every fucking tire for 90 percent of the cars right away.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 1: I'll stack them. I'll stock them here. And that way
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 1: I'll get a whole ton of business. We have your tires.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden you got to get
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: rid of all those tires.
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 2: We ain't got your tire no more. That's crazy. Seems
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: like there'd be a lot of other things to worry about.
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: Well, I have my buddy, Matt, who was at the
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 1: club last night. His house burnt down in the Pacific
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 1: Palisades fire. And. He's like, the regulations you're going through
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 1: to try to rebuild your house are fucking insane. He's like,
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 1: we're not even close to starting construction. And he's got money.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 1: And he's like, he could just start construction right away.
• 1:24:42
  Speaker 2: Are they just going to change the way they build
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: houses there to make them less fireproof?
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they're doing, man. They're just making it...
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: The regulations are insane. It's just like there's so much
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 1: red tape before you can begin construction again. Whereas in Texas...
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: If your house burnt down, you go, oh, here's the
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: plans for the new house. They go, oh, it looks good.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 1: It's up to code. Good luck. Build your fucking house.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 1: And you just build your house. That's it. Right. You're
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 1: on that California Coastal Commission.
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 2: Bro. Yeah. They are brutal. Those people are brutal. Yeah.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 2: I'm glad I'm out of the real estate fucking.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: The California real estate thing.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 2: I'm glad I got out when I did.
• 1:25:20
  Speaker 1: A lot of people are trying to get out now.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 1: I know a bunch of friends that are trying to
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: get out and they can't sell their house.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 2: But I got to tell you, I still love Southern California.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 2: I love to go out there and play golf and
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 2: hang out. I still know a lot of people down there.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: Southern California is beautiful. Oh, it's beautiful. That fucking climate
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 2: is just untouchable anywhere in the world.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: Which is amazing that they fucked it up so bad
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: that people want to move from there. Yeah. Because it's awesome.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 1: It's not just awesome. It's like the variety of environments
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: you can get to within two hours. It's crazy.
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 2: Remember you were going to buy that big ranch out
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 2: in— Montecito or Santa Barbara yeah I didn't even know
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 2: you had money then whenever you first told me that
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 2: I was like oh yeah all right you have no
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 2: idea what it costs to buy a fucking piece of
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 2: property and uh what do you got a podcast and
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: a couple of fucking shows first time I did your
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 2: podcast I didn't even know what it was oh you
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: asked me to do it as a I'll come do
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 2: your podcast and I had no idea it was fucking
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 2: millions of people and it sold books and tickets. And
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: I'm like, man, damn, Joe, what do you got going
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 2: on over here?
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: Well, it was, you know, back then it was like
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: kind of under the radar. People didn't know what a
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: podcast was. But still millions of people were listening to them.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 2: How many subscribers do you have now? Do you even know?
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: I think on YouTube, what do we have, 20-something? Yeah,
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 1: we're over 20, I think. 20 million on YouTube and
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: same on Spotify.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 2: Same.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 1: It's like 20 million subscribers.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 2: Fuck.
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: That's a lot of people.
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I was talking to Angela about it this morning,
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 2: and she said, what are you doing? I'm doing Joe's podcast.
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go talk to 20 million people, and
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 2: I really don't have anything to say. So she goes, well,
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 2: Joe will lead you through it. You'll be fine. I'm like,
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 2: I know, but it's still 20 million fucking people.
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 1: You can't think about it.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 1: If you think about it, it'll fuck your head up.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 2: I just started thinking about it. Fuck me up. Don't
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: do it. Let it go. Do I know any of them?
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 2: I know a lot of them.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 1: Listen, they're just folks like you and me. That's why
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: it works.
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You know?
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: We just have lucky lives.
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 2: We have lucky lives, Joe.
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 1: Very lucky lives.
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: Lucky lives.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: That's the best way to put it.
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: I'm going to do, you know, next week I'm celebrating
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: 40 years in stand-up comedy. That's amazing. September 17th, 1986
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 2: is when I first started telling jokes.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: Are you doing a set that night? I am.
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 2: I got a show in Dallas that night. Oh, nice.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: And I'm leaving this weekend for the first, I've been
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: off for four months, so I'm going to Florida, I
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: think Daytona, and I don't know.
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 1: I always loved to stand up in Dallas. Dallas is
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 1: a fun city.
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
• 1:28:12
  Speaker 1: That's fun. I always loved Dallas. I always loved Houston,
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: and I always loved Dallas.
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love Houston, too. I just have that one
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 2: big play out in Katy, that big gigantic room out there.
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 2: I don't even go into Houston anymore. I just go
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 2: to Katy. That's as far as I go.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: What is the place?
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. It's that 6,000-seater. You played it, right?
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: That big old huge thing. They can block parts of
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 2: it off. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: I did that spot.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 2: Big fucking I think they changed the name of it
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: every two years to put a new sponsor on it.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: It was a Toyota something.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they always do stuff like that, right?
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: That's always weird. It's always a bank or some corporation
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: or something.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 2: I could never find a room in that town that
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: I liked because there was... The really nice one was
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 2: too small and they had this big concrete vomitorium downtown
• 1:28:58
  Speaker 2: that used to be a rock house so you could
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: just washed vomit out of it with a fucking hose.
• 1:29:03
  Speaker 2: Had a lady fall out of the fucking balcony 26 feet.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 2: Landed on another lady. Flattened a fucking metal chair. Both
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 2: of them left. And I thought a light fell from
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 2: the sky. I didn't know. I was on stage. And
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 2: people were going, oh, oh, oh, oh. People screaming. I'm like, fuck, fuck.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: And turned the lights on. And we got fucking ambulance,
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 2: fucking stretchers coming out. They both left on fucking stretchers. Oh,
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 2: my God. And big lady, too, buck 80, fucking flattened
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 2: another woman and her chair. Then the next show, the
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: same night, guy has a heart attack and dies. And
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: I'm like, is this an Indian burial ground or some shit?
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. What the fuck? And that was my only
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 2: play there. And then they opened that big building out
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 2: in Katy. I'm like, okay, this is mine, boys.
• 1:29:56
  Speaker 1: That place is haunted.
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 2: Fuck, yeah. I'm not going back there.
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 1: Have you ever talked to anybody else that had weird
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 1: things happen in that place?
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 2: I really hadn't.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: Two nights or two shows.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 2: Two shows in one night.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 1: That's nuts.
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And I always thought, man, these balconies are awfully
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 2: fucking steep. You could go up there and sit in
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 2: it and go, what keeps them from falling over? Nothing.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 2: Not a goddamn thing. A woman just lost her balance
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 2: and went right over the fucking edge.
• 1:30:23
  Speaker 1: Whenever I see those penthouses in Miami, I think of that.
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 1: I was watching some YouTube video. I like watching those
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: real estate shows where guys are like, look at this
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 1: incredible apartment. Look at the amenity. I don't know why.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 2: I'm a moron. I like real estate shit.
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 1: I like watching condos and places. I'll never buy a condo.
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 1: So he's at this crazy condo that's a penthouse in Miami.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: It's like $ 70 million, and it's got this glass wall
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: that's like titty high and then down like 70 flights.
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 1: It's just glass wall, and then look over the side.
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: I can't swing that. I don't like that feeling.
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 2: I don't like it worse if I have my phone
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 2: in my hand because I can fall off. That's fine,
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 2: but I can't let that phone go.
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: What if the phone hits somebody in the head and
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 1: kills them?
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 2: It would be on you, wouldn't it? It would be
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 2: on you. It would be easy to trace that motherfucker
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 2: right on back to where it came from. It wouldn't
• 1:31:18
  Speaker 2: be hard.
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 1: It's just like the balcony thing. I see that in
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 1: New York City, too. Some of those apartments that have
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: balconies and you just look over the ledge. That's too weird.
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: It's too weird that there's a place in your house
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: where you could definitely die if you take an extra step.
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 1: I would say don't live in a place where you
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: could definitely die if you take an extra step. Just generally,
• 1:31:39
  Speaker 1: as a rule. That's got to fuck with your anxiety, too.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 1: Imagine getting high up there and looking down.
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 2: I've still got that penthouse, but it's only 22 floors.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 1: That's enough.
• 1:31:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's plenty.
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: I've been to your place. That's enough. That's more than
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: enough to die. More than enough.
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 3: I live like 600 feet in the sky.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: I know you do, dude. You live way the fuck
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: up there.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 3: I asked someone who lives up there, too. I have
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: a couple weird dreams sometimes where, like, the building is
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 3: falling over. It's not like a crash or a big event, but, like,
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 3: it's just weird inception, like, mind-bending, just falling to the
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 3: ground very slowly and weirdly.
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: It's fucking.
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 3: Because you can feel the.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 2: Sway.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 3: I see my toilet water move all the time.
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: Fuck that, dude.
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 2: Get out.
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 1: Where do you live?
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 3: Don't say it.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 1: I can't say it.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 3: I live downtown also.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: Get out now.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 2: That's fun.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: Get yourself a place in Dripping Springs.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 3: I have a really cool view. The view is insane.
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 1: Your view is sick.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's pros to it for sure. Whenever I'm
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 1: in New York City, if I know somebody that has
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 1: an apartment, my friend's dad had an apartment in New
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: York City, and he had this corner... building like this
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 1: building where his apartment had glass on one side glass
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: on the other side it was just all city and
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 1: it was in the middle of everything and I was
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 1: like this is the view like a lot of people
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 1: have the view of like the city in the distance
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 1: but the city right on top of you and he
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 1: was like you know like 30th floor or something like
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: that and there's all these other buildings it's like like
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 1: a sci-fi movie you know it's like it's so exciting
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 1: just the feeling of all these lit windows and all
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 1: these buildings around you and looking down seeing the cars
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: and traffic.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 2: All the fucking stories, man, that everybody has.
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 1: And everybody's like watching everybody else. Everybody's got fucking binoculars.
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 1: They're looking into other people's windows and seeing if people
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 1: are fucking watching people.
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 2: I've got them. I've got a big old fucking tripod.
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 2: I ain't seen titty one with it. I don't know
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 2: how much I spent on that goddamn thing. I ain't
• 1:33:34
  Speaker 2: seen one tit.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 1: The New York City thing I kind of get, but
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 1: I don't. I mean, I think I get it. If
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 1: I was a single guy and I was younger, I
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 1: kind of get it. But someone like, to me, just
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 1: being on top of people like that is not good
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 1: for you. I don't think it's good for you to
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 1: be smushed in with so many people, like to feel
• 1:33:55
  Speaker 1: all their vibe around you all the time.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love to go there. I used to take
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 2: my mother. My mother used to love to go to
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 2: fucking theater there. So my mother was alive. I would
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 2: take her to New York. And we went to see
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 2: Phantom of the Opera. And halfway through it, I leaned
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 2: over to my mother and said, I didn't realize it
• 1:34:12
  Speaker 2: was an opera. Well, it's in the name. I know,
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 2: but I still didn't know it was going to be
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 2: a fucking opera.
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, you thought it was going to be.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 2: Like the movie? Yeah, I didn't know it was going
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 2: to be just a straight-up fucking opera when they're gone.
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 2: But we also went to see Book of Mormon with
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 2: the original cast, and that was so fucking funny, man.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 1: Book of Mormon's amazing.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 2: God, what a great fucking, those fucking South Park boys,
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 2: South America.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: Didn't they change the name of their show to South America?
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: For Trump? Or is it an episode?
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 2: No, it's the next year. That's what it's going to
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 2: be called. For the next year? Yep. That is the
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 2: best joke I laughed out loud. I read it on
• 1:34:48
  Speaker 2: my phone by myself at the house and laughed out loud.
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 2: That is fucking rich.
• 1:34:53
  Speaker 1: That is so silly.
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 2: You can't fuck with those guys. They're funny and they
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 2: don't give a shit.
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 1: And they're super rich.
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, super fucking rich.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 3: The website has South America now.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 2: Fucking amazing. I couldn't live without South Park.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 3: That means we'll get a new theme song.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 1: They're like the only thing that Comedy Central didn't fuck up.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 2: They were too big for Comedy Central to fuck up.
• 1:35:20
  Speaker 2: They had so much power with the success of that show.
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 2: I guess they don't fuck with us.
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 1: I remember when the first tape was going around, the
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: VHS tape.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 1: What would Brian Boitano do?
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 2: Remember that? What would Brian Boitano do if he weren't
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 2: here right now? He'd make a plan and follow through.
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 1: That's back before the internet. That's what's really crazy. South
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 1: Park was around before the internet was everywhere. So this
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: was probably like 95, right?
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 1: When did the first.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 3: It debuted on Comedy Central in 99, I.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 2: Think, or 97.
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 1: But there was a tape that they had made that
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: was going around.
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 3: There's the spirit of Christmas and there's something that I
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 3: think that's Jesus for Santa Claus.
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jesus. Yeah. It was a Christmas card or something. Yeah.
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: What year was that made? Because I remember I was
• 1:36:08
  Speaker 1: dating a gal who worked in an agency and she
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 1: got a copy of it.
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 3: This says 95, but something just said 92.
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 1: Interesting. So it was like the internet really became a
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 1: thing in.
• 1:36:20
  Speaker 3: People's... First release, that's weird. Something was released in 92
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 3: and then something in 95.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 1: Okay. The first in 92, short films. So I think.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 3: I guess it would have been Jesus.
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 1: The earliest that I could have seen it was 95,
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 1: I believe.
• 1:36:42
  Speaker 3: Jesus, the kids play some Magic Cat on Frosty. I
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 3: don't really remember that one, but definitely remember seeing the
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 3: second one, Jesus and Santa.
• 1:36:51
  Speaker 1: So when was the internet really in everybody's house? I
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 1: got the internet for the first time in 94. When
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 1: did you get the internet?
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 3: I got CompuServe first. It was like 95, 96.
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 1: What was CompuServe? What was the difference between that and.
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 3: It was like AOL.
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 3: Like chat rooms and.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:37:09
  Speaker 1: I had AOL.
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I still don't have the internet. I still don't
• 1:37:14
  Speaker 2: have it. But I'm going to get it.
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: You don't have internet in your house?
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: This year.
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 1: This year you're going to get it? I do.
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 7: I do.
• 1:37:20
  Speaker 2: I don't use it, but I've got it.
• 1:37:22
  Speaker 1: It's good to not use it. You're smart about that shit.
• 1:37:25
  Speaker 2: Oh, I can't. Yeah. I can't. I cannot read what
• 1:37:28
  Speaker 2: people fucking say. And then every once in a while
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 2: I think I can for a second, and I'm like, no,
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 2: just don't put it down. Because when we were raising money,
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 2: by the way, I've got to tell you, and I
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 2: may have already told you, but when we bought the
• 1:37:47
  Speaker 2: Sherp or whatever the fuck it was, the fire truck,
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 2: they used that one year later to save lives. One
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 2: year later, that same storm system hit that same riverbed,
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 2: and they used that thing for days. And they talked
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 2: about it on the news. Now they have two of them.
• 1:38:04
  Speaker 2: And they said one of them was given by Joe
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 2: Rogan and Ron White. And that made me so proud
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 2: that we were able to do something that really made
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 2: a fucking difference.
• 1:38:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, that's really awesome. That's really awesome we could
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 1: do that. I mean, that's a no-brainer. That's a real
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 1: thing that can help people. That's so cool. Those things
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 1: look crazy, too.
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 2: Oh, they're so fun, man. I took it down the
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 2: river and fucking you go up any bank over giant rocks.
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 2: the thing will go in it. You can't stop it.
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 2: You just can't stop it.
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 1: Fun thing to have the shit go sideways. That area
• 1:38:35
  Speaker 1: gets hit a lot, right? Is that like Wimberley? Is
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 1: that that area?
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:38:39
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, really, it.
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 2: Was that unique storm system, but it happened fucking twice.
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 2: There that baby is.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know if I sent this to you. I forgot.
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 3: This is the one you guys got money for.
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 7: Wow.
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 1: That's it?
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 2: That's the one we bought, Ron. Look at that.
• 1:38:53
  Speaker 1: That's so dope.
• 1:38:54
  Speaker 2: That's the coolest thing.
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 1: Wow. That thing's incredible. Taking all those kids. That's so fun.
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. They took that thing all the way across Greenland.
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 2: Right across the middle of Greenland. It took weeks and
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 2: weeks to do it, but they took it all the
• 1:39:09
  Speaker 2: way across. Just nothing stopping them. They put gas in
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 2: the tires, and they can run it. It's only got
• 1:39:16
  Speaker 2: a 55-horsepower motor. Oh, wow. But it's all torque, so
• 1:39:20
  Speaker 2: it doesn't go very fast, and it needs to get
• 1:39:23
  Speaker 2: good gas mileage, right, because it needs to get into
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 2: weird places. But they can put gas in those gigantic tires.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 2: That's insane.
• 1:39:30
  Speaker 1: So you can suck the gas out of the tire
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 1: while you're driving?
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:39:33
  Speaker 1: How do you even get the gas out of the tire?
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 1: The tire's spinning.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know how it works.
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense to me. I'm trying to
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 1: figure out how that makes sense. How are you going
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 1: to get the gas.
• 1:39:43
  Speaker 2: Out of the tires? I don't know. They're rigged up,
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 2: I guess. I don't know. They've got a line that
• 1:39:48
  Speaker 2: goes to it.
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 1: But the line's spinning if the tire's spinning.
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 2: But also the tires deflate completely. At night. I mean,
• 1:39:58
  Speaker 2: it airs itself back up. Whoa. Why'd you do that?
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 2: But I asked him a million questions before I bought
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 2: the fucking thing.
• 1:40:08
  Speaker 1: Whoa, look at that thing. That's nuts.
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 3: This is a video explaining the fuel system.
• 1:40:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know if....
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 2: Each wheel has its own tank.
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 1: Each wheel has its own tank.
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 7: So Sherp doesn't tilt. Even if one tank is empty,
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 7: the Sherp remains stable. Cool fact. Tires are self-regulating. While driving,
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 7: they adjust air pressure via exhaust gas. No onboard compressor needed.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 7: So go ahead, shoot one tire. Sherp keeps rolling.
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 2: Whoa.
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 3: I guess it did not explain this much.
• 1:40:44
  Speaker 7: You asked, what's up with fuel in those Sherp wheels?
• 1:40:47
  Speaker 7: Let's break it down. If you shoot the tire, will
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 7: it explode? Will Sherp tilt if just one wheel has fuel? Yes,
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 7: the fuel is stored in the wheel hubs, separate from
• 1:40:57
  Speaker 7: the air chamber. There are sealed tanks inside the rim.
• 1:41:01
  Speaker 7: Each wheel has its own tank, but the system balances
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 7: weight evenly.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:41:07
  Speaker 3: It's in the center of it.
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 1: So you have to take them off to refuel.
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 2: That's what it is.
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 1: That makes more sense.
• 1:41:12
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 1: That makes more sense.
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 2: Still.
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 1: very genius.
• 1:41:16
  Speaker 2: Fucking great way to store fuel yeah they're made in
• 1:41:18
  Speaker 2: the ukraine and the guy told me we just take
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 2: them out to the front let the russians shoot at
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 2: it and then bring it back and figure out another
• 1:41:25
  Speaker 2: way to build it just keep on going they got
• 1:41:28
  Speaker 2: plenty of room to test it and that's all mud
• 1:41:29
  Speaker 2: out there anyway in the ukraine so they that's you
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: know that's where that was all conceived and and uh
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 2: and cool as shit you know what a what a
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 2: great fucking little vehicle yes nobody needs one really unless
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 2: you live right up there on the river and you
• 1:41:43
  Speaker 2: want to help in a flood but Or you got
• 1:41:46
  Speaker 2: a crazy ranch. Crazy ranch. One of those guys.
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 3: Just change where you're plugging into.
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 1: Okay. So he can do it right. You don't have
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 1: to take it off. You can just go right from
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 1: those tanks.
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 1: And that's how you pump fuel into your tank and
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 1: drive it.
• 1:42:01
  Speaker 2: That's nuts.
• 1:42:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, if you have a crazy ranch or if you're
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 1: on a front line, that's probably a good vehicle to have.
• 1:42:09
  Speaker 1: That Wimberley area does get hit hard, right? They get
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 1: those flash floods.
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 2: Well, they got two of them, you know, and almost
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 2: exactly a year apart. Both of them right at Fourth
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 2: of July weekend. But I don't know if it— it was
• 1:42:22
  Speaker 2: supposed to be like a thousand-year event, and then it
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 2: happened a year later. And I'm like, well, that wasn't
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 2: a thousand-year event or a hundred-year flood. It was a
• 1:42:30
  Speaker 2: one-year flood. But I don't know if it's a constant problem.
• 1:42:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, all those river— If it gets a
• 1:42:38
  Speaker 2: storm stuck over that, everything is granite, right? So it
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 2: all just fucking runs all over the place and feeds
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 2: into the Guadalupe, and then it goes nuts.
• 1:42:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, those flood zones are nuts when you see what
• 1:42:51
  Speaker 1: can happen, like how high the water can get to
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 1: and how quick it can happen.
• 1:42:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we drove it just the other day just to see.
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 2: You can still see the devastation, but that Camp Mystic
• 1:43:03
  Speaker 2: is just sitting right there. I didn't see it the
• 1:43:06
  Speaker 2: first time I went down there, And, uh, but boy,
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 2: it's just right there with camp mystic written, right. And
• 1:43:11
  Speaker 2: big letters right on it. And I'm like, God damn,
• 1:43:13
  Speaker 2: how could they not see that that might be a problem,
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 2: but it never had been, you know, it had to
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 2: take the worst thing in the worst place. And, you know,
• 1:43:22
  Speaker 2: no communication out there. And I know they blame a
• 1:43:25
  Speaker 2: lot of it on somebody Biden or somebody, but, but
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 2: it really was not foreseeable, you know, from, from my perspective.
• 1:43:35
  Speaker 2: And I really did look at it. I mean, I, I,
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: I did, you know, I gathered as much information as
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 2: I could. And I'm like, yeah, they couldn't have done
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 2: anything about that. Just a horrible, horrible fucking thing. But,
• 1:43:51
  Speaker 2: you know, life goes on. We all learn lessons. And,
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 2: you know, I don't think that mystic camp will ever
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 2: open again, which is too bad. I think they tried
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 2: opening up again. Yeah, I think too many people bucked
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 2: up against it now. Well, it's understandable. It's such a
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 2: gorgeous place, though, right there on the fucking river. It
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 2: was there for 100 years or something.
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 1: That's nuts. Yeah, but— Did you see that crazy avalanche
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 1: that broke the dam in Nepal?
• 1:44:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was over there when that happened. Were you really?
• 1:44:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, not in Nepal, but, I mean, I was overseas,
• 1:44:26
  Speaker 2: and every news cycle was just nothing but that. That
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 2: was insane. I wonder if that situation is in other
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 2: places up there where there are big ice dams or whatever.
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, I wonder if that's going to be something
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 2: that happens as those glacier caps start to melt. And
• 1:44:44
  Speaker 2: they are melting because the rivers were running like crazy
• 1:44:48
  Speaker 2: when I was there. in Switzerland, and they were worried
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 2: about it because normally they would not be getting that
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 2: much water. But those ice caps, they had a really
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 2: hot summer, and those ice caps are keeping those rivers running.
• 1:45:00
  Speaker 1: Imagine your whole city's existence is tied to whether or
• 1:45:05
  Speaker 1: not you have an avalanche.
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:45:08
  Speaker 1: And you're sitting there like, please, please no rock slides.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 1: I think the rock slide, is that what caused the
• 1:45:14
  Speaker 1: Nepal thing? There was an avalanche that came down and
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 1: fucked up the dam?
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 2: No, the avalanche came down and blocked, and that's what
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 2: made the lake. Then the glacier broke off and landed
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 2: in the lake and busted that down the chute. So
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 2: there were actually two events. The rock slide made a lake.
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 1: How long did it take for.
• 1:45:37
  Speaker 2: Everything to happen? Well, I mean, once it broke.
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 1: No, but was it really quick with the rock slide?
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 1: Between the rock slide?
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what the distance was
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 2: between the rock slide and the avalanche. Fuck, man. But
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 2: it was a pretty big lake.
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 1: That water, watching the water wash over those people was insane.
• 1:45:54
  Speaker 2: It was horrible.
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 1: Insane. And the speed in which it came and the volume.
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Just knocking things completely down.
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 3: Shattered ice and rock flowed down at speeds approaching 150
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 3: kilometers an hour, kicking off a flood that raised water
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 3: levels as much as 9 meters in 30 minutes.
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 2: 30 minutes. Oh. Duck!
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 1: It's just the way it was. Like, this idea people have. Like, oh,
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 1: the water's coming. You'd be able to run like... No. No.
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 1: We watched that video. We're like, oh, you don't have
• 1:46:26
  Speaker 1: a chance. You can't go anywhere. There's nowhere to hide.
• 1:46:29
  Speaker 1: And the volume. It was a wall. Just a giant,
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 1: like a building-sized wall of water.
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 2: Of boulders and logs and ice.
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 1: Cars and everything. And you're just going to get crushed.
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 1: It's not just water. It's everything the water's carrying with it.
• 1:46:47
  Speaker 1: Insanely heavy shit.
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 2: Stupid, stupid fucking mayhem. Just total mayhem.
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, natural disasters are fucking crazy. When you see all
• 1:46:58
  Speaker 1: the meteor spots on Earth, all the little fucking holes
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 1: in the ground where they, you know, like this one
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 1: in Australia that they didn't discover until fairly recently.
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw something on that.
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 1: Look at that.
• 1:47:12
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 1: Hit by an asteroid right there.
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 3: Huh.
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 1: When did that happen?
• 1:47:16
  Speaker 2: An asteroid the size of a house.
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this one in Nevada, this crazy one in Nevada.
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 1: It's just this fucking gigantic crater. Have you ever seen
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 1: that one?
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen it.
• 1:47:26
  Speaker 1: Fuck. How often does that happen?
• 1:47:29
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's happened in a long time. We
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 2: hope it's going to be a little while before it
• 1:47:33
  Speaker 2: happens again.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 1: The time scale of Earth is so vast and the
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 1: time scale of a person is so small that many,
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 1: many people can die, live and die, live and die,
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 1: live and die, and it doesn't happen. And we say, oh,
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 1: the odds of it happening are very low. But really,
• 1:47:48
  Speaker 1: it's just random. It can happen, and if it does, boom.
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 1: No more civilization.
• 1:47:54
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but now we could shoot them down, right? No.
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 2: We can't?
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 6: No.
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 2: We can't stop them?
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're ready for that yet.
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 2: No.
• 1:48:01
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're ready in any way to stop
• 1:48:05
  Speaker 1: something big that's headed our way. I don't think so.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 1: I think they have some theories. They've never done it.
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know how much time, effort, and or resources
• 1:48:14
  Speaker 1: have been put into making sure that if a civilization
• 1:48:17
  Speaker 1: killer asteroid is coming our way, that we can all
• 1:48:19
  Speaker 1: join together. and launch rockets from China and Russia and
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 1: everywhere else and knock that thing off course. I don't know.
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 2: Put Elon on it.
• 1:48:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 2: He'll fix it.
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 1: He might be able to. He might be one of
• 1:48:30
  Speaker 1: the only guys that can figure out how to stop
• 1:48:34
  Speaker 1: something like that. But I don't know if they even
• 1:48:36
  Speaker 1: know when those things are coming. Some of them are
• 1:48:38
  Speaker 1: coming from behind the sun, and they don't see them
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 1: until it's too late.
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 2: What do you think about limiting how much people can
• 1:48:48
  Speaker 2: contribute to a political party? I think there should be
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 2: a set amount that anybody can donate, and if they
• 1:48:59
  Speaker 2: donate one dime more than that, they're hung by the
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 2: neck until dead. That's what I think. and keep the
• 1:49:08
  Speaker 2: billionaires out of politics.
• 1:49:10
  Speaker 1: I think also you could say the same thing about corporations.
• 1:49:13
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:49:14
  Speaker 1: Also, you could say the same thing about lobbyists.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:49:18
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of influence on our politics that I
• 1:49:20
  Speaker 1: think should be eliminated, and money in politics is so ingrained.
• 1:49:28
  Speaker 1: It's so entangled in politics. The idea of removing it
• 1:49:32
  Speaker 1: entirely seems ridiculous to people, but if it didn't exist,
• 1:49:35
  Speaker 1: And you said, hey, what do you think about like
• 1:49:38
  Speaker 1: letting corporations, you know, those ones that dump shit into
• 1:49:41
  Speaker 1: rivers and pollute ecosystems and do a lot of funky
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 1: shit in third world countries they're not supposed to do.
• 1:49:45
  Speaker 1: What do you think about having them contribute so much
• 1:49:49
  Speaker 1: money to our politics that they have incredible influence over
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: regulations to get passed?
• 1:49:55
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 1: What a great idea.
• 1:49:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 2: I wish I was one.
• 1:49:59
  Speaker 1: Nobody would say that's a good idea. You would say, no,
• 1:50:01
  Speaker 1: let's keep money out of it and make sure that
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 1: all laws that get passed are for the benefit of
• 1:50:06
  Speaker 1: the society and the people.
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:50:08
  Speaker 1: Not individual corporations or individual people. Yeah, definitely not. And
• 1:50:13
  Speaker 1: then you go even further than that. You'd say, well,
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 1: let's make sure that the people that are doing the
• 1:50:20
  Speaker 1: job are compensated fairly but are not allowed to insider trade.
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't that– We're being grifted, Joe.
• 1:50:29
  Speaker 1: 100%.
• 1:50:30
  Speaker 2: We are being grifted.
• 1:50:31
  Speaker 1: No ifs, ands, or buts about that.
• 1:50:33
  Speaker 2: I was listening to this story. It was really about
• 1:50:37
  Speaker 2: Chinese politics, and I don't think communism is the answer
• 1:50:40
  Speaker 2: to anything. But you don't just— it' s not a— the leader is
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 2: not a popularity contest. That's somebody that's been in this
• 1:50:46
  Speaker 2: business for 40 years, you know, that knows how to
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 2: run a country. It's not a just, here's this guy.
• 1:50:52
  Speaker 2: We'll let this guy do it. Everybody seems to like
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 2: this guy. You know, it's all— come from the ground up,
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 2: you know, and China works pretty well, I think, you know,
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I've never been there, but it makes
• 1:51:06
  Speaker 2: sense that people in those powerful jobs should have a
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 2: lot of experience.
• 1:51:10
  Speaker 1: That, but they also can't be removed. They have total power.
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 1: And if you say anything about the government, they will
• 1:51:18
  Speaker 1: literally put you in a prison somewhere. They'll put you
• 1:51:20
  Speaker 1: in a camp somewhere. They've removed people. They've silenced people.
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 1: They've Even billionaires, they've made them disappear. You can't step
• 1:51:28
  Speaker 1: out of line. And the government and the businesses work
• 1:51:31
  Speaker 1: hand in glove. That's it.
• 1:51:32
  Speaker 2: Period.
• 1:51:33
  Speaker 1: There's no government, no business that works without the influence
• 1:51:37
  Speaker 1: of the government over there. So they have giant problems too.
• 1:51:41
  Speaker 1: But they probably have better leadership in terms of strengthening
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 1: their country. But it's terrible for freedom. What you need
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 1: is like, I've heard the argument. I don't agree with it,
• 1:51:52
  Speaker 1: but What you need is great leaders, right? But what
• 1:51:55
  Speaker 1: you need is like a benevolent dictator, like someone who
• 1:51:57
  Speaker 1: really does care, someone who really is a good person
• 1:52:00
  Speaker 1: and genuinely doesn't want for anything or need for anything
• 1:52:04
  Speaker 1: and just wants to try to make their mark and
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 1: make the world a better place.
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:52:07
  Speaker 1: That doesn't exist.
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 2: It doesn't. And why not? Why not?
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:52:10
  Speaker 1: Because most of the people that get the job, that's
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 1: not who they are. Most of the people are either
• 1:52:17
  Speaker 1: warmongers or pussyhounds. They're power brokers. They're people who want
• 1:52:22
  Speaker 1: the feeling of being the top dog. Those are the
• 1:52:25
  Speaker 1: people that generally get to those positions. Because the struggle
• 1:52:29
  Speaker 1: is so hard to get there. And then they're going
• 1:52:31
  Speaker 1: to tear you down and attack you and pull up
• 1:52:33
  Speaker 1: things from your past. And most people don't want to
• 1:52:36
  Speaker 1: go through that. And so a lot of people that
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 1: may be good leaders never want that position.
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 2: Because it's a shit job.
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't even pay well.
• 1:52:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 1: It's like it pays a half a million dollars a
• 1:52:44
  Speaker 1: year and these guys that are– which is good money
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 1: for a real job. But like if you're being the
• 1:52:49
  Speaker 1: president of the United States, you're around billionaires and there's
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 1: all this influence. And then they leave the job and
• 1:52:54
  Speaker 1: then they get these speaking gigs. So they talk at
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 1: a conference of bankers for a half a million bucks.
• 1:52:59
  Speaker 2: You're like, what? Right.
• 1:53:01
  Speaker 1: What is this? What is this shenanigans that you're involved in?
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 2: It's the way it is. The job doesn't pay much,
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 2: but the job pays a lot if you work it
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 2: that way.
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:53:12
  Speaker 1: They all leave rich. Jimmy Carter was, like, the only
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 1: one that, like, kind of stayed reasonable his whole life.
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 1: He never became a rich guy after he left office. Basically,
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 1: that's who he was. He stayed the same way.
• 1:53:30
  Speaker 2: I think Tallarico might be one of those guys.
• 1:53:32
  Speaker 1: Well, I would hope so. You know, look, it's always
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 1: good to assume the best about people. He said some
• 1:53:40
  Speaker 1: things that I think are questionable.
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but, you know, God is non-binary. He said that
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 2: one time. And then people were like, I don't know
• 1:53:49
  Speaker 2: what non-binary means. And that makes me nervous.
• 1:53:53
  Speaker 1: I get what he's saying there. God is not a sex.
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman.
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's God. It's an infinite loving force. It's not
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 1: as simple as.
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 2: I get it, too.
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 1: I get what he's saying. It's just what you're saying
• 1:54:04
  Speaker 1: is also like you're, you know, I get people that
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 1: want to say they're not a man or a woman.
• 1:54:10
  Speaker 1: Because I feel like you should say whatever you want
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 1: to say. But to say that that's a thing is
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 1: a different thing. Like if you're a biologist and you
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 1: say there's non-binary people, like are there? Like what are
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 1: we saying? There's XX and XY. And there's people that
• 1:54:26
  Speaker 1: are intersex. There's people that have this weird thing. Like
• 1:54:28
  Speaker 1: there's women that are born XY. So they're a man.
• 1:54:33
  Speaker 1: But they have their testicles inside of their bodies. And
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 1: they also have androgen-resistant genetics somehow or another. So they
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 1: never become like masculine and they look really feminine, but
• 1:54:46
  Speaker 1: they're essentially XY chromosome. There's weirdness. That's really what like
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 1: non-binary is. That's real non-binary. That's like very strange. That's
• 1:54:53
  Speaker 1: like your intersex. But some people just don't feel comfortable
• 1:54:57
  Speaker 1: in their skin and they don't want to be labeled
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 1: a male or a female. They just want to be
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 1: whatever they are, which is fine. But when you're talking
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 1: about biology, I think we have to be able to
• 1:55:06
  Speaker 1: make a distinction. We have to know like what we're
• 1:55:09
  Speaker 1: actually talking about. Facts over feelings. Feelings are fine. You
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 1: should be able to say what you call yourself, Carol
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 1: or Bob or whatever you want to do, man. You
• 1:55:19
  Speaker 1: want to be a man now? Okay, you're a man.
• 1:55:21
  Speaker 1: I'm cool with that. But let's not let the nonsense
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 1: invade the actual analysis of what we're talking about. And
• 1:55:31
  Speaker 1: some of what we're talking about is just dysphoria. It's
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 1: gender dysphoria. That's what it's always been described as, which
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 1: is fine. You know, there's a lot of things that
• 1:55:40
  Speaker 1: people have wrong with them. It doesn't mean that, you know,
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 1: they're bad people. It doesn't mean that, you know, should
• 1:55:45
  Speaker 1: alienate them. They shouldn't have rights. And that's no one
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 1: saying that. You're saying like, no, you can't compete in
• 1:55:51
  Speaker 1: the women's division because you're not. You're a biological man.
• 1:55:54
  Speaker 1: I know you wish you were a woman and I
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 1: know you want to be identified as a woman. That's great.
• 1:55:59
  Speaker 1: But when it comes to sports.
• 1:56:00
  Speaker 2: Right. When it comes to tennis. Yeah. Stop. Stop.
• 1:56:03
  Speaker 1: Stop the nonsense. This is, you know, it's just. there's
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 1: a lot of like weird shit that goes along with compassion,
• 1:56:11
  Speaker 1: you know, where people don't want to look at reality
• 1:56:14
  Speaker 1: because reality itself is not compassionate. The reality itself is like,
• 1:56:18
  Speaker 1: you know, you are discriminatory or transphobic. You're this, you're
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 1: that like, okay, I'm not, that's not what we're saying.
• 1:56:25
  Speaker 1: Like we're saying like, you've got to be reasonable and
• 1:56:28
  Speaker 1: reasonable is you've got to know what's the difference between
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 1: a sex offender who decides he's a woman and wants
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 1: to hang around with women and Versus a guy who
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 1: has gender dysphoria and wants to be recognized.
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 1: Two different things.
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 2: And if I get it wrong, forgive me. You know,
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 2: if I don't call you the right name or whatever,
• 1:56:47
  Speaker 2: I suggest you try to grow a pretty thick skin
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 2: because people are always going to be mean, you know,
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 2: so just let it run down your back. I mean,
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 2: I've got thick skin, you know.
• 1:56:58
  Speaker 1: It's a complicated conversation because it's not one that we
• 1:57:01
  Speaker 1: all thought we were going to have 20 years ago.
• 1:57:02
  Speaker 6: No.
• 1:57:03
  Speaker 1: That was going to be the forefront of. society discussion
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 1: about gender.
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 2: It's odd. It's very odd.
• 1:57:09
  Speaker 1: I just, I don't like it being promoted for young
• 1:57:12
  Speaker 1: people because young people are getting surgeries and taking chemical
• 1:57:15
  Speaker 1: castration drugs and doing, which is essentially what hormone blockers are.
• 1:57:18
  Speaker 1: They're the same category of drugs they use for sex
• 1:57:22
  Speaker 1: offenders when they chemically castrate them. It's fucked. To do
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 1: that to kids is fucked. Do that to kids that
• 1:57:28
  Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing yet. They're confused and there's
• 1:57:31
  Speaker 1: a lot of detransitioners, man. There's a lot of people
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 1: that went through that and really wish they didn't. And
• 1:57:36
  Speaker 1: they get ostracized from the trans community. They get ostracized
• 1:57:39
  Speaker 1: from progressive communities. They get told they were never trans
• 1:57:43
  Speaker 1: to begin with. Like, what does that mean? What are
• 1:57:46
  Speaker 1: you saying? This is not like you're saying someone's not
• 1:57:48
  Speaker 1: black or not white. Like, just traits that are just,
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 1: they are what they are. You have blonde hair, you
• 1:57:56
  Speaker 1: have black hair. This is like what you're born with.
• 1:57:58
  Speaker 1: To say you are not really transgender is like, what
• 1:58:01
  Speaker 1: the fuck are you saying? You're making someone do something
• 1:58:05
  Speaker 1: to their body. You're doing something to them through surgery,
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 1: or through chemicals like this is to say that you're
• 1:58:13
  Speaker 1: not really one of you're not really transgender you just
• 1:58:16
  Speaker 1: did it like what i.
• 1:58:19
  Speaker 2: Don't know how about.
• 1:58:20
  Speaker 1: Recognize the fact that people are easily influenced and sometimes
• 1:58:22
  Speaker 1: people make mistakes and sometimes people get convinced or convince
• 1:58:26
  Speaker 1: themselves that they're they should do something because it's it's
• 1:58:30
  Speaker 1: fashionable in society and it's, it's culturally relevant currently.
• 1:58:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. You know, I'm not for any of that,
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 2: but I mean, I, I think try to be fair,
• 1:58:41
  Speaker 2: try to be nice and, and, you know, let them
• 1:58:44
  Speaker 2: do whatever the fuck they want to do. But, but even, uh,
• 1:58:47
  Speaker 2: Tallarico's against having any kind of surgery before 18 and, uh,
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 2: same as Paxson, but Paxson didn't cost this, uh, Tallarico
• 1:58:57
  Speaker 2: didn't cost this state $ 6 million in fines and lawsuits,
• 1:59:03
  Speaker 2: and that happened to Paxson. How did he cost?
• 1:59:05
  Speaker 1: What did he do?
• 1:59:06
  Speaker 2: Paxson? Yeah.
• 1:59:07
  Speaker 1: What did he do that cost $ 6 million?
• 1:59:10
  Speaker 2: Well, back in 2020, eight of his assistants turned him
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 2: into the FBI for fraud. One of them was a
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 2: 50-year Texas Ranger. He fired that guy, five decades of
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 2: service in the Texas Rangers. Well, that guy sued him.
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 2: And they fired four of the eight people that turned
• 1:59:31
  Speaker 2: him in. He did. They fired him. And then he
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 2: realized that he was going to get fucking sued over it.
• 1:59:38
  Speaker 2: And he came up with a solution. He was going
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 2: to give them $ 3 million to settle this case. And
• 1:59:44
  Speaker 2: then the House said, no, it's not coming from us.
• 1:59:47
  Speaker 2: And then they sued, won $ 6 million. And guess who
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 2: paid that $ 6 million? You and me paid the $ 6
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 2: million for his bribery and how he ever got out
• 1:59:58
  Speaker 2: of this stuff. He was impeached by the House. His
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 2: own party impeached him. 121 votes to 22. And then
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 2: the Senate put him back in because they didn't want
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 2: to lose the seat. But he's a criminal, just a
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 2: piece of shit.
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know enough about him. But I do know
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 1: that they're surprised that Tallarico is ahead of him in
• 2:00:19
  Speaker 1: the polls.
• 2:00:20
  Speaker 2: I'm not. I think that people are sick of what's
• 2:00:22
  Speaker 2: going on right now in Texas. They've been in control
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 2: for 30 years. What have they given us? Let somebody
• 2:00:30
  Speaker 2: else fucking drive. You know, they're jacking with my marijuana
• 2:00:34
  Speaker 2: and I'm ready to get them out.
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 1: The marijuana thing is just so stupid because if you
• 2:00:39
  Speaker 1: look at the national polls, it's something in the range
• 2:00:41
  Speaker 1: of 70 percent of people think it should be legal. Right.
• 2:00:44
  Speaker 2: And we should decide, right? We, the people, should decide. Yeah.
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 1: And if you find out that these people who are
• 2:00:50
  Speaker 1: making these decisions have been influenced by the alcohol lobby
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 1: or by anybody else.
• 2:00:54
  Speaker 2: Hung by the neck until dead. That's what I'm saying.
• 2:00:58
  Speaker 2: Let's get some severe penalties in there.
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 1: It's corruption. And it's bad for us. And it's also
• 2:01:04
  Speaker 1: bad for the look of Texas. Texas is supposed to
• 2:01:06
  Speaker 1: be a place that's about freedom. And it is in
• 2:01:08
  Speaker 1: a lot of ways. But in that way, it's definitely not.
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 1: And it's definitely stupid. Again, we looked at what California
• 2:01:14
  Speaker 1: is making, just the tax revenue, $ 7 billion. B, with
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 1: a B.
• 2:01:19
  Speaker 2: With a B. Yeah.
• 2:01:21
  Speaker 1: And is there some enormous problems that have taken place?
• 2:01:25
  Speaker 2: No. No, no. You know what is? The problem is
• 2:01:28
  Speaker 2: alcohol sales are down. That's the problem. That's what got
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 2: it all stirred up. Alcohol is tanking it right now.
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, wine, liquor, tequila, all of it is 20%
• 2:01:39
  Speaker 2: or more off.
• 2:01:42
  Speaker 1: What do you think is the cause of that?
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 2: Well, it's that younger generation just doesn't feel the need
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 2: to go get hammered every night. They don't have the
• 2:01:49
  Speaker 2: wallet for it. The kids are broke. You know, they
• 2:01:52
  Speaker 2: got $ 80, 000 worth of fucking school debt that your kids
• 2:01:55
  Speaker 2: don't have and my kid doesn't have. And, you know,
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 2: there's just no money for it. And then they go
• 2:02:01
  Speaker 2: to these clubs and they like to... smoke some weed
• 2:02:04
  Speaker 2: and go in there and not drink.
• 2:02:07
  Speaker 1: Also, they don't like hangovers.
• 2:02:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm right there with them. I mean, I
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 2: think it's a better way. I mean, I can't go
• 2:02:14
  Speaker 2: through this life without some kind of buzz. I need it.
• 2:02:19
  Speaker 2: But liquor was the wrong one for me, and I
• 2:02:22
  Speaker 2: just found better ways. There's more than one way to
• 2:02:24
  Speaker 2: skin a goddamn cat.
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 1: I know, and the only reason why that stuff is
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 1: illegal is corruption. It's stupid, all of it. whether it's
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 1: marijuana or mushrooms or all these things, we should understand them,
• 2:02:36
  Speaker 1: study them, and they benefit a lot of people and
• 2:02:38
  Speaker 1: they should be legal, period. Everybody thinks not, either hasn't
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 1: done them or doesn't know what they're talking about or
• 2:02:44
  Speaker 1: is coming from a very authoritarian perspective where you think
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 1: the government should be allowed to control people's behavior. And
• 2:02:50
  Speaker 1: I think that's fucking ridiculous.
• 2:02:52
  Speaker 2: I think it's fucking ridiculous too, Joe. Fucking ridiculous.
• 2:02:55
  Speaker 1: I'm glad we're on the right page.
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 2: Huh?
• 2:02:57
  Speaker 1: I said I'm glad we're on the right page.
• 2:02:58
  Speaker 2: We're on the same page. We're on the same page.
• 2:03:02
  Speaker 3: You think cameras have anything to do with it?
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 1: What do you mean?
• 2:03:04
  Speaker 3: People recording people doing dumb shit and not being free
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 2:03:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, that stops people from getting drunk?
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 2: Maybe. Nah. Never stop me.
• 2:03:13
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about the kids.
• 2:03:14
  Speaker 2: You were talking about kids.
• 2:03:15
  Speaker 1: Do you think so? Is that what you think?
• 2:03:17
  Speaker 3: I sort of was asking.
• 2:03:18
  Speaker 2: Maybe. Could be.
• 2:03:19
  Speaker 1: Maybe.
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 3: Afraid to be caught doing dumb shit.
• 2:03:21
  Speaker 1: Well, people are very aware of being caught and getting
• 2:03:25
  Speaker 1: embarrassed because so many people have gone viral these days. Maybe.
• 2:03:29
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's a factor.
• 2:03:30
  Speaker 2: Possible. What'd they do to Jelly Roll, man? I said,
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 2: poor Jelly Roll. All he did was say the president
• 2:03:36
  Speaker 2: was a fat pig like me. That's what he said. Yeah.
• 2:03:39
  Speaker 1: And then he said, if you're a Trump supporter, don't
• 2:03:42
  Speaker 1: listen to my music.
• 2:03:43
  Speaker 2: Well, that was after they canceled him anyway. And so he,
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not really, I like Jelly Roll fine.
• 2:03:51
  Speaker 2: I don't know him that well, but you know, but
• 2:03:53
  Speaker 2: I wasn't a big listener anyway, but I've met him
• 2:03:57
  Speaker 2: a couple of times, seemed like a nice guy to him.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 2: My boy, they went nuts. Yeah. I mean, nuts.
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 1: Get him out of here.
• 2:04:04
  Speaker 2: Never listen to his music. What did he say?
• 2:04:06
  Speaker 1: I didn't see what he said. I heard about it.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 1: But Jelly Roll's a sweetheart.
• 2:04:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't have advised him to say the thing he said.
• 2:04:14
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't have either. I've always been careful with that
• 2:04:16
  Speaker 2: kind of stuff, you know. Don't be stupid, Ron. Don't
• 2:04:20
  Speaker 2: be stupid.
• 2:04:21
  Speaker 1: Well, he was on the Jimmy Kimmel show, right?
• 2:04:24
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 2:04:25
  Speaker 1: He was doing a monologue. I don't even know if
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 1: he wrote it. It could have been the writers from
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 1: the Jimmy Kimmel show who are obviously very anti-Trump, or
• 2:04:32
  Speaker 1: at least Kimmel is very openly anti-Trump. So they could
• 2:04:37
  Speaker 1: have just tricked him into doing it.
• 2:04:40
  Speaker 2: Tricked him into throwing his career right out the goddamn window.
• 2:04:43
  Speaker 1: Look, he's super talented.
• 2:04:45
  Speaker 2: He'll be fine.
• 2:04:46
  Speaker 1: It'll be one of those things where it's a bump
• 2:04:48
  Speaker 1: in the road. and he'll have to get over it.
• 2:04:50
  Speaker 2: I hope so. He seemed like such a nice guy
• 2:04:52
  Speaker 2: when I met him.
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 1: He is. He's a sweetheart.
• 2:04:54
  Speaker 2: He'd been a Ron White fan since he was a kid,
• 2:04:57
  Speaker 2: you know, and I gotta have a warm place in
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 2: my heart for those kind of folks.
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 1: Well, he's also going through a lot of different changes
• 2:05:02
  Speaker 1: in his life, right? Like, so here he loses 300 pounds,
• 2:05:05
  Speaker 1: which is a giant change. Gets hooked on fitness. This
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 1: is a giant change. Changes his whole life. Changes his body.
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 1: Did the ways to well thing, just like you. And
• 2:05:14
  Speaker 1: then he gets divorced. So that's another big change. So
• 2:05:17
  Speaker 1: he's got these two giant changes, and then he's on
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 1: the Kimmel show and he's saying stupid things.
• 2:05:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:05:21
  Speaker 1: Well, he's saying jokes. I shouldn't even say he's saying
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 1: stupid things. He's saying, I'm not even saying it's stupid.
• 2:05:28
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying like, if you want people to like you,
• 2:05:31
  Speaker 1: like going after Trump and that from, especially from his perspective,
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 1: like as a country guy, like that's a giant chunk
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 1: of your crowd.
• 2:05:40
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 2:05:41
  Speaker 1: But if you feel like that's what he was doing,
• 2:05:43
  Speaker 1: stand up, you know, uh, at the club.
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 1: He did it a bunch of times, and he was practicing.
• 2:05:48
  Speaker 1: So I think that's also one of the reasons why
• 2:05:50
  Speaker 1: he wanted to host the Kimmel Show.
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 2: I think that might have been rushed a little bit.
• 2:05:58
  Speaker 2: Stand-up's really hard.
• 2:05:59
  Speaker 1: It's a long road.
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 1: He got laughs. He had some good lines. But it was,
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 1: you know, it was what you expect from someone who's
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 1: beginning their stand-up journey. But I think, you know, if
• 2:06:12
  Speaker 1: you know the guy, and I do, he's the best.
• 2:06:14
  Speaker 2: He's a sweetheart.
• 2:06:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, at least my experiences with him have all
• 2:06:18
  Speaker 1: been awesome and with other people that I know.
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 1: He's a very jolly, friendly, lovable guy. But like all people,
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 1: he is human and humans do things that other humans
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 1: don't like. And then you suffer the consequences and, you know.
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 2:06:33
  Speaker 1: I think he'll be fine. He'll be fine because he's
• 2:06:34
  Speaker 1: super talented. I mean, he's a fucking brilliant singer and
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 1: brilliant songwriter.
• 2:06:40
  Speaker 2: We'll see.
• 2:06:41
  Speaker 1: I think he'll be fine. I think, you know, if
• 2:06:43
  Speaker 1: he could do it all again, I bet he probably wouldn't.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 1: That's part of life.
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 2: You can't back up.
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 3: No.
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 1: You do some things you wish you hadn't, you go, oh, shit.
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 1: You know, but talented people. Like, look at Kanye West.
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 1: He had a fucking diamond swastika around his neck a
• 2:07:01
  Speaker 1: year later. He's selling out giant arenas. Right.
• 2:07:04
  Speaker 2: I can't explain. I can't explain Kanye.
• 2:07:07
  Speaker 1: People bounce back. Well, he's super talented. I mean, that's
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 1: really the thing.
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:07:13
  Speaker 1: Unbelievably prolific and super talented and driven. Right. Like a motherfucker.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 2: And full-blown nuts. Yep. Just like us.
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 1: Just in a different way. I mean, everybody's fucking crazy.
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 1: That's the thing. People are attacking Jelly Roll. One of
• 2:07:31
  Speaker 1: the reasons people like to do that is they're terrified
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 1: of them ever doing something that stupid. And so then
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 1: when someone does do something that they think is stupid,
• 2:07:39
  Speaker 1: they just can't wait to attack.
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 2: Boy.
• 2:07:41
  Speaker 1: Especially someone that's like on top.
• 2:07:42
  Speaker 2: Of the world with a jelly roll. Relentless. I know. Every,
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, I've watched TikTok, you know, and I've just
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 2: seen those feeds coming through. It is jelly roll. Boy,
• 2:07:52
  Speaker 2: they're losing their minds over it. I'm like, what? Trump
• 2:07:56
  Speaker 2: invented name calling. He's the one that brought it back
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 2: from the death with ellen degenerate that was the first
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 2: one he did i think yeah and uh like oh
• 2:08:06
  Speaker 2: name calling that's what we're back.
• 2:08:07
  Speaker 1: To i don't even know what the joke was it
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 1: was saying trump's a fat fuck just like me like.
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 2: What was he saying that's what he said i mean
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 2: i don't i don't know what the whole bit was
• 2:08:16
  Speaker 2: but that's all it was but he uh he said
• 2:08:19
  Speaker 2: uh Trump is a— Trump' s like me. He's a fat pig.
• 2:08:24
  Speaker 2: That's it? That's it.
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 1: And that's what they got mad at?
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 2: That's what they got mad at. He called the president
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 2: a fat pig. That's interesting. And he's kind of fat.
• 2:08:30
  Speaker 1: Well, he's definitely not thin.
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Not from where I'm sitting.
• 2:08:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, was the joke, like, he could lose weight
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 1: because I lost weight? I mean, what was he saying?
• 2:08:41
  Speaker 1: I just think he was saying— Should we play it? Yeah.
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 1: All right, let's play it. Oh, it says here.
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 2:08:48
  Speaker 1: Fat pig comment. Jelly Roll joked that his own 300-pound
• 2:08:54
  Speaker 1: weight loss meant he essentially lost an entire Donald Trump.
• 2:08:58
  Speaker 1: The fat pig comment, he quoted past remarks Trump made
• 2:09:01
  Speaker 1: about others and said, well, Mr. President, from one fat
• 2:09:04
  Speaker 1: pig to another, take it from me that physical fitness
• 2:09:07
  Speaker 1: is very important. Huh, that's not bad. Right. That's not
• 2:09:10
  Speaker 1: bad at all. From one fat pig to another.
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:09:14
  Speaker 1: Saying that he lost an entire Donald Trump. Okay, he did.
• 2:09:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:09:17
  Speaker 1: Like literally, he lost 300 pounds. That's more than a
• 2:09:19
  Speaker 1: Trump probably. And then he said, from one fat pig
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 1: to another, take it from me that physical fitness is
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 1: very important. Is that terrible?
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No.
• 2:09:28
  Speaker 1: That's not terrible at all.
• 2:09:30
  Speaker 2: And that's it.
• 2:09:31
  Speaker 1: So maybe the real problem was him.
• 2:09:36
  Speaker 2: Being on Kimmel to begin with would be a mark
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 2: against him.
• 2:09:41
  Speaker 1: And then maybe saying, if you're a Trump supporter, don't
• 2:09:43
  Speaker 1: listen to my music.
• 2:09:45
  Speaker 2: But that was the next day or whatever.
• 2:09:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you can play it.
• 2:09:48
  Speaker 4: Sadly, those are the only laps Trump's been doing lately.
• 2:09:52
  Speaker 4: According to the Washington Post, a lot of doctors are
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 4: worried about the president's weight. After his last physical, we
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 4: found out Trump gained 14 pounds, which means he's now
• 2:10:01
  Speaker 4: tipping the scales at almost 240.
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 2: It's crazy. Think about this, y'all.
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 4: In the last few years, I've lost 300 pounds. That
• 2:10:21
  Speaker 4: means I've lost an entire Donald Trump. And let's be honest,
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 4: based on his approval ratings, it seems like most of
• 2:10:29
  Speaker 4: the country wants to do the same thing. Now, listen,
• 2:10:38
  Speaker 4: we should take it easy, y'all. We shouldn't be making
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 4: fun of the president for his weight because we know
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 4: that he would never do that to other people.
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 6: I don't speak badly about somebody's physical disability, but he's
• 2:10:51
  Speaker 6: got the biggest stomach I have ever seen.
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 2: He's actually fatter than ever.
• 2:10:55
  Speaker 6: The mayor is incompetent, and the governor is.
• 2:11:00
  Speaker 6: A big fat slob.
• 2:11:03
  Speaker 2: I told you, I have a friend of mine. He's
• 2:11:05
  Speaker 2: fat as... Are you a dinosaur guy like this?
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 6: He said, Chris Christie's a fat pig.
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 1: You cannot do that.
• 2:11:10
  Speaker 6: Chris Christie is not a fat pig. He is not
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 6: a fat pig. He's not a fat pig. Don't call
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 6: him a fat pig. Sir, in the back, don't call
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 6: him a fat pig, okay? I don't talk about people
• 2:11:21
  Speaker 6: being fat. I refuse to talk about the fact that
• 2:11:25
  Speaker 6: he's a fat slob. I don't mention it.
• 2:11:29
  Speaker 2: Well, if that ain't the pot calling the kettle fat. Well, Mr.
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 4: President, from one fat pig to another, take it from
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 4: me that physical fitness is very important. And trust me,
• 2:11:46
  Speaker 4: you'll be happy to see your penis again.
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 1: I just speak from a little bit of experience here, y'all.
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 4: The first time I seen mine recently, I was surprised
• 2:11:58
  Speaker 4: at how cute it was.
• 2:12:01
  Speaker 1: It's rudimentary stand-up, right? He's learning how to do stand-up,
• 2:12:05
  Speaker 1: so it's almost like he's a politician talking.
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 2: I got to tell you, I think he did a
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 2: pretty good job with that.
• 2:12:09
  Speaker 1: He did a very good job. But, I mean, you
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? It's monologue-type stand-up, and clearly someone
• 2:12:15
  Speaker 1: wrote it, and he's reading it off a teleprompter. Yeah.
• 2:12:19
  Speaker 2: Probably. But anyway, it wasn't, you know, it certainly wasn't bad.
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was just jokes.
• 2:12:26
  Speaker 1: It's just jokes. If someone got so upset they never
• 2:12:29
  Speaker 1: want to listen to Jelly Rolls music again after that.
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 2: They're crying. They're crying. They're in tears. I see it.
• 2:12:36
  Speaker 2: I see it.
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't the funniest stuff. But I mean, he didn't,
• 2:12:39
  Speaker 1: that's someone, they wrote that shit for him. I guarantee you.
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 2: I'm sure they did.
• 2:12:43
  Speaker 6: 100%.
• 2:12:43
  Speaker 1: You could tell he was reading it. It wasn't like
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 1: he was just speaking off the cuff. He was 100%
• 2:12:46
  Speaker 1: reading a thing.
• 2:12:49
  Speaker 2: He looked good, though.
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 1: He looked great.
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 2: Didn't he? He looked kind of handsome.
• 2:12:52
  Speaker 1: He's very handsome now. He lost a lot of weight, man.
• 2:12:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, the guy, when he came to do the podcast,
• 2:12:57
  Speaker 1: he ran six and a half miles on the treadmill
• 2:12:59
  Speaker 1: while we were hanging out.
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 2: No shit. Oh, yeah.
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 1: And talking while he's running. So I'm working out. I'm
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 1: in front of him working out, lifting weights, and he's
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 1: running on this treadmill the entire time and talking while
• 2:13:09
  Speaker 1: he's running.
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 2:13:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's fit now. It's kind of crazy. We went
• 2:13:13
  Speaker 1: to see him, you know, he performed at, you know,
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 1: Matthew McConaughey has that Mac and Jack, that big thing
• 2:13:19
  Speaker 1: that they do where it's a big, it's a charity
• 2:13:22
  Speaker 1: benefit and auction and he has people perform. So he,
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 1: Jelly Roll performed. He was a performer that night. And
• 2:13:29
  Speaker 1: then as he's coming off the stage, there's this stairway
• 2:13:34
  Speaker 1: with a railing on it. And we're, me and Tony
• 2:13:37
  Speaker 1: are over to the left side. We're, you know, behind
• 2:13:40
  Speaker 1: the stage. He grabs a hold of the railing and
• 2:13:42
  Speaker 1: jumps over it. And I go, do you know what
• 2:13:44
  Speaker 1: you just did? I go, you used to be 500 pounds,
• 2:13:47
  Speaker 1: and now you just grabbed a railing and jumped over
• 2:13:49
  Speaker 1: it like a cat. Like, that's crazy.
• 2:13:51
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 2:13:51
  Speaker 1: So you're a different human being.
• 2:13:53
  Speaker 2: That's kind of inspiring, actually.
• 2:13:54
  Speaker 1: It's very inspiring. Yeah, I wish he didn't say that stuff. But,
• 2:13:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just sometimes the juice is not worth
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 1: the squeeze.
• 2:14:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right about that. You know? You got to
• 2:14:04
  Speaker 2: figure out the juice and the squeeze, baby. You got
• 2:14:06
  Speaker 2: to figure it out.
• 2:14:08
  Speaker 1: But, you know, if you know Jelly Roll, he's a
• 2:14:10
  Speaker 1: great guy. It's just. That kind of monologue, stand-up stuff,
• 2:14:15
  Speaker 1: it is funny seeing all the different times Trump called
• 2:14:19
  Speaker 1: people fat, though. That is fucking hilarious.
• 2:14:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:14:24
  Speaker 1: But, you know, Trump supporters are fucking nuts, man. They're rabid.
• 2:14:28
  Speaker 1: He represents something other than just a person to them.
• 2:14:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's Christ. Yeah.
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 1: Well, he represents something, a leader that they wish they had,
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 1: you know? Yep. Which is a real problem in our
• 2:14:40
  Speaker 1: society in general with leaders. We look to them as
• 2:14:43
  Speaker 1: if they're something different than every other person that's ever
• 2:14:45
  Speaker 1: been a leader before. Like, this is the one. This
• 2:14:48
  Speaker 1: is the one that's going to save us.
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 2:14:50
  Speaker 2: And you know what? Some people are hopeless. And anybody
• 2:14:53
  Speaker 2: that says, well, I'll give you hope, then what are
• 2:14:58
  Speaker 2: you going to do? I've said this more than once
• 2:15:05
  Speaker 2: back when, that if you really want to improve your
• 2:15:09
  Speaker 2: lot in life and you don't really have anything, you
• 2:15:11
  Speaker 2: don't really have an education, you should be Bernie fucking Sanders,
• 2:15:15
  Speaker 2: you know, is your guy. Because he wants to get
• 2:15:18
  Speaker 2: the minimum wage up. You think somebody's going to come
• 2:15:21
  Speaker 2: in and hand you a bunch of loot. That's never
• 2:15:22
  Speaker 2: going to happen. Maybe you can make a couple more
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 2: bucks an hour. Go with that. You know, that's not.
• 2:15:28
  Speaker 2: Is it Bernie Sanders? Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:15:30
  Speaker 1: The guy from Vermont.
• 2:15:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. OK. So, you know, he was really trying
• 2:15:34
  Speaker 2: to help. But they're like, that's not enough.
• 2:15:37
  Speaker 1: Well, they didn't want him. The Democratic establishment did not
• 2:15:41
  Speaker 1: want that guy. That was the first time that I
• 2:15:43
  Speaker 1: ever got attacked when I had Bernie on. And someone
• 2:15:48
  Speaker 1: was on the podcast. They said, who are you going
• 2:15:50
  Speaker 1: to vote for? I said, oh, it was Jimmy Dore.
• 2:15:51
  Speaker 1: And I said, if I was going to vote for anybody,
• 2:15:53
  Speaker 1: I'd probably vote for Bernie. He's the one who makes
• 2:15:55
  Speaker 1: the most sense. Like he's the only guy that's like
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 1: he's anti-war. He wants to take a small amount of
• 2:16:01
  Speaker 1: money from stock market speculation and use that to fund
• 2:16:06
  Speaker 1: a bunch of these social programs. I'm like, let's see.
• 2:16:09
  Speaker 1: This is a long time ago. I don't necessarily think
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 1: that I feel the same way anymore about him. One
• 2:16:15
  Speaker 1: of the reasons being is that he kind of gave
• 2:16:17
  Speaker 1: in to the Democratic establishment. He let them run him
• 2:16:20
  Speaker 1: over during that whole thing with Hillary where they rigged
• 2:16:23
  Speaker 1: the primary. He let them get away with stuff where
• 2:16:27
  Speaker 1: I think he should have put his foot down and said, this.
• 2:16:29
  Speaker 2: Is fucked up. You guys are.
• 2:16:31
  Speaker 1: Rigging the party. They haven't had a legit primary in, like, what,
• 2:16:36
  Speaker 1: more than a decade? That's not good. That's not good
• 2:16:40
  Speaker 1: if you want to be the party that's the solution
• 2:16:42
  Speaker 1: to change. Where's your primaries? What are you doing? Like,
• 2:16:46
  Speaker 1: when they installed Kamala, they just shoved her in there.
• 2:16:49
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, this is our representative now. Biden's out.
• 2:16:52
  Speaker 1: And we were like, wait, what?
• 2:16:54
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 2:16:54
  Speaker 1: There's no primary? Like, what about the rules? What about
• 2:16:57
  Speaker 1: the way we've always done this?
• 2:16:58
  Speaker 2: Well, Biden was taking a nap. He had to do something.
• 2:17:02
  Speaker 1: It's amazing he's still alive. I thought he was going
• 2:17:05
  Speaker 1: to die right after he got out of office. I
• 2:17:07
  Speaker 1: thought he was probably barely hanging on, which is also
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 1: one of my big fears about him doing another four years. Like,
• 2:17:14
  Speaker 1: there's no way, no way he's going to make it
• 2:17:17
  Speaker 1: out of four years.
• 2:17:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's all going to be over soon.
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 2: What do you mean?
• 2:17:23
  Speaker 1: AI or the apocalypse?
• 2:17:25
  Speaker 2: The apocalypse. Did you hear that? J.D.
• 2:17:27
  Speaker 1: Vance was doing a speech I was listening to on
• 2:17:28
  Speaker 1: the Tim Dillon Show.
• 2:17:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 2:17:29
  Speaker 3: I almost brought this up a second ago because I
• 2:17:31
  Speaker 3: just saw.
• 2:17:31
  Speaker 1: It on Twitter again.
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 2: Why is it?
• 2:17:33
  Speaker 1: He was talking about end times. What was his exact quote?
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 1: Let's play it. I'll pull it up. Let's play it.
• 2:17:41
  Speaker 1: First of all, who are you talking to that you
• 2:17:44
  Speaker 1: feel like this is the thing to say? this is
• 2:17:50
  Speaker 1: talking about like whether or not we're entering end times.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 2: JD Vance was yes he's on Tim Dillon's.
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 1: Show no no no no no no he was just
• 2:18:04
  Speaker 1: giving this speech Tim Dillon was making fun of it
• 2:18:06
  Speaker 1: it was fucking hilarious what's he.
• 2:18:08
  Speaker 5: Saying friends and their, and their family. I, I, so I,
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 5: I tend to think like the, while I wouldn't be
• 2:18:16
  Speaker 5: shocked if we are living in the end times, what
• 2:18:18
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to focus on is doing as much of
• 2:18:21
  Speaker 5: God's work as possible right now.
• 2:18:23
  Speaker 1: And if that leads to the end times, okay.
• 2:18:26
  Speaker 5: And if that leads to, you know, us building a
• 2:18:29
  Speaker 5: better world that thrives and survives for a very long
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 5: time after I'm gone, that's great too. I just think you've.
• 2:18:38
  Speaker 2: Got to kind of try to have.
• 2:18:41
  Speaker 1: It sounds like he's saying if it lead that the
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 1: second hope is it leads to a great world.
• 2:18:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 1: But if it leads to the end times.
• 2:18:50
  Speaker 2: That's okay, too.
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 5: You know, us building a better world that thrives. And
• 2:18:55
  Speaker 5: if that leads to the end times, okay.
• 2:18:57
  Speaker 2: Not okay. Yeah.
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 1: What are you saying? If that leads to the end times, okay.
• 2:19:02
  Speaker 1: Not great. That's not okay. And if it doesn't lead
• 2:19:05
  Speaker 1: to the end times and everybody lives a great life, well,
• 2:19:07
  Speaker 1: that's great too.
• 2:19:08
  Speaker 2: That'd be just fine.
• 2:19:09
  Speaker 1: That doesn't seem like the optimum perspective.
• 2:19:13
  Speaker 2: What does he even say?
• 2:19:14
  Speaker 1: I feel like you should reverse those two. And the
• 2:19:17
  Speaker 1: goal is not end times. The goal is make a
• 2:19:21
  Speaker 1: beautiful world.
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 2: For all of us.
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 1: Where people thrive and everybody's happy.
• 2:19:25
  Speaker 2: And leave the end out.
• 2:19:27
  Speaker 1: That's the problem with religious people that are convinced that
• 2:19:29
  Speaker 1: there's a set of events. That have been predicted.
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 2: You think he's a religious person?
• 2:19:35
  Speaker 1: You think he's a fake religious person?
• 2:19:37
  Speaker 2: Vance? Yeah. J.D. Vance?
• 2:19:39
  Speaker 1: He's a Catholic. He's very religious. He wrote a book about,
• 2:19:44
  Speaker 1: what was his book?
• 2:19:44
  Speaker 3: Communion?
• 2:19:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:19:45
  Speaker 3: That one was called His Pitching.
• 2:19:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he wrote a book about his spiritual journey.
• 2:19:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't. I saw the other movie.
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, that's why Communion, the other one.
• 2:19:56
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 2:19:57
  Speaker 1: I brought that up when he was on the podcast. Like,
• 2:19:58
  Speaker 1: you know, you wrote a book about a guy who
• 2:20:00
  Speaker 1: got abducted by aliens? That's the same book title. That's
• 2:20:04
  Speaker 1: Whitley Stryber's book, Communion.
• 2:20:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, shit. Really?
• 2:20:07
  Speaker 1: There's a famous movie with– who was in Communion? God
• 2:20:15
  Speaker 1: damn it.
• 2:20:16
  Speaker 3: I want to say something, but I don't think it's right.
• 2:20:20
  Speaker 2: 1989? I just knew about Hillbilly.
• 2:20:24
  Speaker 1: Christopher Walken. That's right.
• 2:20:25
  Speaker 2: I just knew about hillbilly allergy or whatever the fuck.
• 2:20:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was his first book. And his new one
• 2:20:30
  Speaker 1: is Communion. But there was a book called Communion by
• 2:20:32
  Speaker 1: this guy, Whitley Stryber, who had been abducted by aliens, allegedly.
• 2:20:36
  Speaker 3: Do you know about the name changes?
• 2:20:37
  Speaker 2: What is that?
• 2:20:38
  Speaker 3: He's changed his name like four times.
• 2:20:42
  Speaker 1: What?
• 2:20:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:20:44
  Speaker 1: Wait a minute.
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 2:20:45
  Speaker 1: James Donald Bowman, his birth name, James David Hamill, the
• 2:20:50
  Speaker 1: name given to him after his mother married her third husband. Well,
• 2:20:54
  Speaker 1: that's understandable.
• 2:20:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but he changed it when he was in high school,
• 2:20:56
  Speaker 3: I think, for that one.
• 2:20:57
  Speaker 1: But he adopted him. He went by J.D. Hamill through
• 2:21:01
  Speaker 1: high school. That makes sense. James David Vance, the name
• 2:21:04
  Speaker 1: he adopted in 2013 before graduating from law school, changing
• 2:21:09
  Speaker 1: his name to Vance to honor his maternal grandparents, Mama
• 2:21:13
  Speaker 1: and Papa, who helped raise him. Well, there's a logic
• 2:21:17
  Speaker 1: behind it, at least. It's not like he's, like, ducking
• 2:21:21
  Speaker 1: taxes or something like that.
• 2:21:23
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying that's why he did it, but how
• 2:21:24
  Speaker 3: many people do you know have changed their name like that?
• 2:21:27
  Speaker 1: Not many.
• 2:21:28
  Speaker 3: At least more than once.
• 2:21:29
  Speaker 1: That is odd. He did it three times.
• 2:21:32
  Speaker 2: Four.
• 2:21:33
  Speaker 1: I wonder if you're trying to reinvent yourself. Why do
• 2:21:35
  Speaker 1: you do that?
• 2:21:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 2:21:37
  Speaker 1: I don't like the end times talk.
• 2:21:38
  Speaker 2: I don't trust him.
• 2:21:39
  Speaker 1: I don't like that talk. That kind of talk is
• 2:21:41
  Speaker 1: crazy talk.
• 2:21:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:21:42
  Speaker 1: Like, if it's end times okay, no. Jamie said it best.
• 2:21:48
  Speaker 2: Not good. Not okay.
• 2:21:48
  Speaker 1: That's not okay.
• 2:21:49
  Speaker 2: That's not okay.
• 2:21:50
  Speaker 1: That's not okay. No, that spooks me out. That's, like,
• 2:21:55
  Speaker 1: I understand why people are attracted by religion. I understand
• 2:21:59
  Speaker 1: it from, like, giving you a moral framework and an
• 2:22:03
  Speaker 1: ethical framework. I get that. But when people think that
• 2:22:06
  Speaker 1: they absolutely know what the interpretations are and absolutely know
• 2:22:11
  Speaker 1: what's going to happen.
• 2:22:12
  Speaker 2: And I'll absolutely quit listening to them talk if that's
• 2:22:16
  Speaker 2: what they come at me with. I know and you
• 2:22:18
  Speaker 2: don't know. Well, my— My uncle was a Baptist preacher,
• 2:22:23
  Speaker 2: so I grew up in the church and was really
• 2:22:25
  Speaker 2: involved with every single aspect of the Baptist church. And
• 2:22:32
  Speaker 2: I believed that my uncle was who you met. He
• 2:22:36
  Speaker 2: smelled like piss, and he was having problems, but he...
• 2:22:41
  Speaker 2: But he was my hero my whole life because I
• 2:22:43
  Speaker 2: thought he was the only one that was telling me
• 2:22:46
  Speaker 2: the truth. And then he ends up hitting on my girlfriend.
• 2:22:48
  Speaker 1: He was an animal.
• 2:22:49
  Speaker 2: He was. He asked her to marry him. He asked
• 2:22:54
  Speaker 2: Jeannie to marry him.
• 2:22:55
  Speaker 1: That's hilarious.
• 2:22:57
  Speaker 2: I came home. They had watched a show. And then
• 2:22:58
  Speaker 2: they came back. And I had another show to do.
• 2:23:00
  Speaker 2: I came back. Nobody was in the living room. I
• 2:23:02
  Speaker 2: was staying at the condo. And I said, how'd it go?
• 2:23:05
  Speaker 2: And he goes, he asked me to marry him. And
• 2:23:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like, well, he was joking, right? And I said,
• 2:23:10
  Speaker 2: I'm in love with your nephew. And he goes, did
• 2:23:13
  Speaker 2: he ask you to marry him? I'm like, fuck, dude, really?
• 2:23:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, I never said it.
• 2:23:17
  Speaker 1: Wasn't he really old then?
• 2:23:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, he's 90.
• 2:23:20
  Speaker 1: 90, yeah. I think he's kind of not really all there.
• 2:23:23
  Speaker 2: No, no, he's not all there anymore. But still, I
• 2:23:27
  Speaker 2: grew up in the church, and I understand the church. Right.
• 2:23:30
  Speaker 2: And I understand what's good about it. And yes, they
• 2:23:35
  Speaker 2: were teaching a good way of life. you know, to,
• 2:23:37
  Speaker 2: to be honest and, you know, all those things that
• 2:23:40
  Speaker 2: you should be and you should follow those 10 commandments anyway.
• 2:23:43
  Speaker 2: You know, they're all good except for one of them
• 2:23:45
  Speaker 2: or something. I don't want them. I don't like, but
• 2:23:48
  Speaker 2: I can't remember which one it was, but, um, but anyway, uh,
• 2:23:55
  Speaker 2: I came away from the whole thing with that. I'm like,
• 2:23:58
  Speaker 2: how do I know? You know, my family, we never
• 2:24:02
  Speaker 2: talked about politics that much. We were little town up
• 2:24:05
  Speaker 2: in the panhandle and the, They were all Baptist or
• 2:24:08
  Speaker 2: Church of Christ, and even they didn't agree with each other.
• 2:24:11
  Speaker 2: And the Church of Christ is kind of a Texas religion.
• 2:24:13
  Speaker 2: It started here. Oh, really? Yeah. And so it was
• 2:24:17
  Speaker 2: very small. But my grandmother was that. And so, you know,
• 2:24:21
  Speaker 2: she'd go around picking up all the little ladies and
• 2:24:24
  Speaker 2: go to this little church. And she spoke in tongues
• 2:24:26
  Speaker 2: every Sunday morning. She would stand up. And I was
• 2:24:31
  Speaker 2: sitting right next to her, and it embarrassed me every
• 2:24:33
  Speaker 2: single time. And then the preacher's wife would stand up
• 2:24:36
  Speaker 2: and interpret because she had the gift of interpretation. That's
• 2:24:40
  Speaker 2: one of the gifts. And it was always a fundraising thing.
• 2:24:44
  Speaker 2: You know, it was always the Lord telling you to
• 2:24:47
  Speaker 2: go deep into your wallet.
• 2:24:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, how convenient.
• 2:24:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
• 2:24:52
  Speaker 1: Did you ever see the, what is the gemstones? Fabulous gemstones?
• 2:24:55
  Speaker 2: What is it called?
• 2:24:56
  Speaker 1: Righteous. Righteous gemstones.
• 2:24:58
  Speaker 2: Funniest thing I've ever seen in my life.
• 2:24:59
  Speaker 1: Damn, that's a good show.
• 2:25:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, it is so rich, man. I just can't wait
• 2:25:03
  Speaker 2: for another fucking season of that.
• 2:25:05
  Speaker 1: That show is fucking phenomenal. And that's a real thing.
• 2:25:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's where Kinison started. You know, Kinison was
• 2:25:11
  Speaker 1: one of those revival preachers.
• 2:25:14
  Speaker 2: Right. Yeah. Yeah. And you know what? That's where I
• 2:25:17
  Speaker 2: learned this art form was watching my uncle preach. He
• 2:25:21
  Speaker 2: was very funny. And always getting a laugh on stage,
• 2:25:25
  Speaker 2: saving souls every fucking week. And I thought it was
• 2:25:28
  Speaker 2: the greatest thing ever. But he was a great orator,
• 2:25:30
  Speaker 2: you know, really, really good. And I know that's where
• 2:25:34
  Speaker 2: I learned I want to be that guy on stage,
• 2:25:36
  Speaker 2: but I just don't want to have a religious message.
• 2:25:39
  Speaker 2: You know, I want to be able to tell some
• 2:25:40
  Speaker 2: dick jokes. But that's where I got it, I know.
• 2:25:43
  Speaker 2: And that's where Chris Rock got his, too, you know.
• 2:25:45
  Speaker 2: His dad or uncle or something was a preacher, right,
• 2:25:48
  Speaker 2: and pretty common.
• 2:25:49
  Speaker 1: A really good preacher is a really good orator.
• 2:25:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:25:52
  Speaker 1: There's people that are good at it.
• 2:25:53
  Speaker 2: Larry, Larry, the cable guy, his, his dad was a
• 2:25:56
  Speaker 2: preacher and a pig farmer. Wow. That adds up to Larry,
• 2:26:00
  Speaker 2: the cable guy. That makes sense.
• 2:26:04
  Speaker 1: It's, it's just, it's a real problem when people pretend
• 2:26:07
  Speaker 1: they have the answers because people want to believe that
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 1: they do. They really want to believe this person knows
• 2:26:13
  Speaker 1: when someone tells you, you have to do this or
• 2:26:16
  Speaker 1: you're going to burn in hell forever. Like, Are you
• 2:26:18
  Speaker 1: fucking sure? Yeah.
• 2:26:20
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 2:26:21
  Speaker 1: If you thought this through? How do you know? Based
• 2:26:24
  Speaker 1: on what?
• 2:26:27
  Speaker 2: I have no idea, but I'm glad it's there. I'm
• 2:26:29
  Speaker 2: glad people are tied to it. I don't care about it.
• 2:26:33
  Speaker 2: I don't bust on anybody's faith because I don't believe that.
• 2:26:38
  Speaker 2: It doesn't mean I'm right. I've been wrong about so
• 2:26:43
  Speaker 2: many fucking things. I might be wrong about all of it.
• 2:26:46
  Speaker 1: The problem was when someone believes something but then wants
• 2:26:48
  Speaker 1: to force other people to believe it too. And that's
• 2:26:51
  Speaker 1: an age-old problem with human beings. That's a real issue.
• 2:26:57
  Speaker 1: All right, Ron. Let's get the fuck out of here.
• 2:26:58
  Speaker 1: We've got a show to do tonight. Let's go.
• 2:27:02
  Speaker 2: Let's go do it, man. I'll be there at 7
• 2:27:04
  Speaker 2: o'clock or whatever.

  Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
