  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dillon Show. Late May,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: getting ready for the summer. One of my favorite people,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the guy who told me to start a podcast, this
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: is a fact.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You are... What is the name? Luis Gomez. I'm kidding.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Luis J. Gomez. I always have to say Luis Gomez.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: I know. Why is it so important to J?
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, look, at this point, it's not really important.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Not for you. It's your name. If I didn't correct you,
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: it would be weird. It's a whole thing. It's a thing.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: Paul F.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Tompkins. If you call Paul Tompkins.
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: He'll never be on this show.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: That'll never, ever come up in my life. I understand.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Is Paul F. Tompkins on this show. Yeah. No, it
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: doesn't really.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: You know what it is, honestly, why I use the
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: J truthfully? It's because when I was a child and
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: I was practicing my autograph.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: The loops of the- Your signature. Yeah, yeah, my autograph.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: I love that you call it an autograph.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: No, but I wasn't practicing my signature. I was practicing
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: an autograph.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: As a kid. That you were going to one day
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: give to people. Yeah, I was going to one day,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: which is a weird thing because nobody asks for autographs.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, nobody wants an autograph. But the J looked
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: so good. The Louis J. It does look good. Yeah.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: You know, very leaky. No, my Instagram handle is Tim J.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Dillon.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: There's something about a J that's nice. It puts that
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: stop between the two words. Donald J. Trump. Donald J. Trump.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Louis J. Gomez. Tim J.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: Dillon. I get it, you know.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: We're talking about a lot of things. Obviously, the economy
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: is a horror. Yeah. And you have a child. You
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: know how much things cost. Food. Yeah.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Gas.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: I try not to pay attention. Of course. Genuinely. Genuinely. Yeah.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: You just don't pay attention. I don't. I like that.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: I'll drive myself fucking crazy, dude.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Gas prices. If my life was dictated where I was
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: walking around going, dude. These fucking gas prices.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Look, it sucks, and I know it drives the price
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: up of everything, right? But at the same time, like,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: that's not the game I'm playing. I'm not driving down
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: the gas prices.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: So what's the point about caring about it?
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: It's a great point. You can't affect it. Yeah. But
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: it's just a truism. It's out there.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: It's out there. It's tough. Of course.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: I only, you know, you play your cards. That's what
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: I say.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I agree.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: You got to do what you can do out there.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: But you're also, you have a business. You're doing well.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I'm doing all right. I'm not doing fucking Tim Dillon well. Yes,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: you are. No, I'm not. You know what Tim did yesterday? Yes.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I'm in his apartment, and he goes, I'm going to
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: go buy a car.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, all right, that's cool, dude. And I
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: was telling him about how Big Jay has a Jeep.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: I was like, a Jeep's actually under the radar.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Like a Wrangler. So then he was like, yeah, I'm
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: going to get a Jeep. And I was like, really?
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I was like, I was surprised. And he was like, yeah,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: good for the money. I like it. Yes.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And then he came back two hours later to bring
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: me to the gym.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: In a fucking Bentley.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Bentley Flying Spur. And I was like, I thought you
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: were getting a Jeep. He's like, I'm getting a fucking Jeep.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: I left the apartment thinking about getting a Jeep.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I did and but here's the reality you know I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: didn't end up getting the I had not slept here's
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: a fair point I had not slept in 48 hours
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I was all fucked up from Australia from the jet
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: lag when I got back and I told him I
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: gave him a whole big speech about financial responsibility the
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: night before about how you have to save your money
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: things don't last forever and eventually we're probably gonna have
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: to live in a state like Florida you know because
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: it's less expensive to own property and the taxes are better.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: And I said, we just got to be smart about
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: our money. I gave him a real big speed. And
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the next day I bought a Bentley.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: I've always wanted this car. Rolled off the lot. $ 30, 000
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: just melts off of it immediately.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Well, sure. That's yeah. Of course.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: But here's the other thing. Um, those cars do have
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: a resale, a decent resale.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Because there's always going to be somebody that wants that car.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: It's not going to be as much. You know what's funny?
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: It's just a car that I would never get that car.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: It's incredible. It's beautiful.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: But I just feel like if I were to get
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: that car, I would also need a driver. Ben should
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: be driving you around.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Hey, by the way, agreed. Yeah, he really should be. Hey, hey, hey.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Zero argument for me. Zero argument for me in that thing.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Me and Tim are in such different worlds, right? Like
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: he pulled in.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: I thought we were going to his apartment before we
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: were going to lunch yesterday.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: And he pulls into the Beverly Hills Hotel.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: And I started to take my bags out of the
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: back thinking we're home. He was like, I don't live here,
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: you fucking idiot.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. I was like, no, no, no.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Well, we've been lucky because we have a friend. who
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: has a really, really big podcast. And he's had me
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: on a bunch. And he's the most influential podcaster in
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the world. And his name is Tony Inchcliffe. And by
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: doing that show so many times, I was exposed to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: lots of people.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: And I was able to get a big group of
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: people listening. So we're happy about that. I also don't
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: have kids. I'm not going to have kids. I don't
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: have a family.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: It allows me to kind of misbehave.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: For you to buy a Bentley instead of funding your
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: kid's college is criminal. Right. It's criminal. Of course. But
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: that's the freedom.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: But it's also, you know, you do those things.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Because, you know, you feel fucking good.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: It's nice. And that fuels something else. It's harder.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: So it's like if you want to fucking have a Bentley,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: you're not going backwards now, Tim.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: No.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: And that is an investment into your own self-belief and
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: your own sort of way of doing things. And I
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: look at spending money as an investment. I take stupid vacations.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: You know, I try to have nice things, you know?
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: I just, I'm classless. So when I say nice things,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: like I got an inflatable hot tub and I'm like, dude,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: I'm fucking killing it.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: Right, right, right. You know, I'm not a... You have
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: nice things people would get with Marlboro miles. Yeah. You
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? Like, nice things that would come out.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Of a cigarette catalog, you'll get, you know?
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: A Marlboro leather jacket? Yeah. You'll get a tent, one
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: of those red tents they used to have. There's nothing
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: wrong with it. It's beautiful. These are beautiful things.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: Dude, I would look at the Marlboro Miles catalog in awe,
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: be like, wow, dude.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah. All of these things you could get. None of
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: it matters. The only thing that matters is friends and family. Yeah. Now...
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Here's the difference, though. It is a... It is... All
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: of these things are inherently dumb.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Anything you buy is kind of stupid, but it makes
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: you feel good, and it's a nice thing.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: And that's all it is, right? I mean, they're not...
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: They don't change your life, but they give you maybe
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: a little bit of joy in a world where every
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: now and then you need a little joy.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: I think worthwhile investments are your home, your car, wherever
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: you're spending a lot of time to yourself thinking, quote unquote, meditate.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: We don't fucking meditate anymore, but when you're driving, you
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: can't really be texting.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, I do. Right. You know. Sure.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: But when you're driving, like, you're alone with your thoughts.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: You're listening to music, but you're sort of thinking through
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: your life and all that shit. And if you're in
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: a fucking shitty car, you're going to just feel like shit,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: in my opinion.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Yes. I think it's... I've been in a shitty car.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I used to drive an Oldsmobile 88. Not even a year.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: That's the type of car.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: And it would literally, like, when I would press the
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: brake too hard, the car would shut off.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Like, I've been in Mitsubishi Galant. I've been in
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: old pieces of shit. I just.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: I would just buy... For years, the cheapest car at
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: the used car dealership, not like a used car dealership,
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: like a certified pre-owned Toyota. I'm talking about like a guy.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Who bought shitty cars. And this Bentley is certified pre-owned.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: This is certified pre-owned Bentley. Good. 2018. It's not brand new.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: You don't have to tell people that.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Well, but here's the reality. It's no different than a
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: 2021 or 2022. But people ask, my cunt friends.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Can you look up the differences between the 2022 and
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: the 2018?
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: There's very few.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: There's going to be a handful of them.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: There's not that many. What were you saying?
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Bentley's not a high-tech car, meaning, like, it doesn't have, like,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: the runner lights. Like, when you get in a Bentley,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: it doesn't, you know, it's not like a new Beamer
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: or a Mercedes where they have the pink and.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: Purple running lights. Designed by a Puerto Rican. Yeah, it
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: looks kind of ethnic. It looks a little ethnic. You know,
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: the reality is this is more of an English gentleman's car.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: It doesn't have a horn that goes beep-a-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee. Yeah, right, right. Yeah,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: this isn't a, you know... So they have some new stuff.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: My Audi, like literally half the technology is being able
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: to change the lighting panels and everything.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: It really is, dude. All of the technology went into
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I got a fucking white trim.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Some people like when they get in a car for
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: it to be lit up and to feel like a,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: you know, some type of carnival.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Because that's where they work or that's where their good
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: family memories are going.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: To a free carnival. It's a simple way.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah. They're treating people like morons. They're going, you like
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: flashing lights, don't you?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And we do.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I love it. For sure. I mean, there's nothing wrong
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: with it.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: If I want to, I could match my lighting scheme
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: to my outfits. They sold it to me that way.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: They looked at me, they're like, this Puerto Rican guy
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: is going to love this feature. Right. And they said,
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: you can match the lighting scheme every day to whatever
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: outfit you're wearing.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: And I was like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, that's such a... So the new one
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: is going to probably... I don't even know what these
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: differences are. I mean, they both have a V8 engine, right? Yeah,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: it's a four liter. I have a sport package, which
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: they don't even make anymore, which is faster. My engines might.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Be even better.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: And this is the 2018 right here.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Four liter V8. Same shit. Yeah, same shit.
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: I mean.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: And again, if you look, go to the interior of
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: the 2020, I mean, by the way, is this not
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a relatable segment?
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: This is like the least relatable. Of the 2018.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, there are people, I have people watching this
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: overdosing on heroin right now. But if you look at it,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: look at it yeah go to the next one Ben
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: go to the right right can I tell you why
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: it's relatable yeah yeah tell me why because they fucking
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: oh they watched you dude I remember yeah I remember
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Tim once a month would ask me for an advance
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: on his I.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: Would $ 600 a month podcast payout.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: I would and like the 27th would hit and yeah
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: he's like dude I need the money I need I
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: need it in cash I know, and you'd give it
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: to me. I appreciate that. And then I would upload
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: a photo an hour later at a steakhouse. You fucking would.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: The $ 75 steak.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: It's inspiring for people to watch you. This is why
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: people like you. That is fucking relatable. You're not fucking
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: gifted at anything, dude. You've been hustling and grinding for
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: a long time. It's 12 years. It's a long time.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: It's a really long time. I'm 37 now. The best
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: years of my life are over, and they were poor.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Like the vast majority of my life. I would have
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: rather have this money at.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: 21 because you have more energy. It's cooler. That's why
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: the LA people... Now, obviously, I.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Have more perspective now and blah, blah, blah. But the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: LA life that these TikTokers live is what's supposed to happen.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: You get famous at 18.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: You're famous until you're 25, and then you die at
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: 27 or 28.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Because it doesn't get better, and you did it. And
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: you were famous at the best time to be famous.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: You didn't work for it. You didn't know what it was.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: You had no... Now, we have perspective. It's, you know.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: But there's something nice about just getting a whole bunch
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: of shit you don't even know why you have it.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: And all of it's just fun.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: I don't even understand how I got laid when I
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: was in my 20s. I was so poor and dirty.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: My body was dirty. What were you doing for work?
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: I was selling comedy club tickets. When I first started
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: in comedy, I was selling comedy club tickets. And then
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: I would just fucking be out there. I was a
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: street kid. I was like, we'd smoke blunts in stairwells
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: and drink 40s on stoops. And there'd be women that
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: I'd hook up. And I think back now, I'm like,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: how would any woman ever... Like, I'm like a shitty comedian.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Just not like, how does a woman spread her legs
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: for an unfunny comedian? That's a crazy thing. He's trying
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: to be funny.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Many of them do. It's a crazy thing. By the way,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: many of them have big houses with unfunny comedians and
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: live very well. Oh, I'm very sure. They do very well.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: We were talking about... people that don't have money that
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: want to go on vacation.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: And we wanted to give a kind of a guide
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: to people that don't have a lot that need to
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: take their kids somewhere. Because it's my belief that you
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: got to go on a summer vacation, even if you
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: don't leave your town.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Like some people go on a staycation. That's terrible. It's sad.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: That's garbage. It's very hard. You shouldn't do that. Have you,
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: but you've even seen that.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: I was, yeah, I see that all the time. But
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: I was in, we go on the road a lot.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: So we're in hotels. And you'll just see, this happened
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: last weekend in Providence. There's a family in the pool.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, in my mind, I'm going, why would
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: anybody visit Providence?
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: And then they were like, oh, we're from Newport. We're
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: like 40 minutes away from here. We just like did
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: a staycation. I look at this poor little three-year-old and
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: I wanted to kidnap him. And just release him into
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: the parking lot. That would be a better life.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: And Newport's a nicer area.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: So it's weird that they went to Providence. So what's
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: going on is like the dad's into something weird. Or
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: the mom is. There's no reason you go from Newport
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: to Providence for a staycation. Something's going on.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: They wanted the pool. That was it. There's pools in Newport.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Something's up. They wanted to get out
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: of town. I don't know.
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: But I felt so bad. I think about that all
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: the time. I'll be at like a gig in Atlantic City.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: And you'll see a family.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: It's tough. It's fucking brutal, dude. And you see a
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: family just at a shitty hotel. And it's usually like
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: an indoor pool.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Terrible.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Smells bad.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: I might do that with my family as like a joke.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: I might bring my whole family to Atlantic City to
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: be funny.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: As a bit. As like a bit. Yeah. Like we're
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: all in on it. We're going to like... Yeah, and
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: then just bring them and go. Here's... Welcome to the...
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: I did that when I was a kid. So my
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: friend Rocky, who ended up being gay, he tried to
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: suck my dick when we were in the sixth grade.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Interesting. So I always knew.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: He was playing with Barbies when he was a kid. Yeah.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Real Tim Dillon. Yeah.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: What's he up to now?
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: He sells real estate.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Does he do well? I don't know.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: But I stay in touch here and there. But he fucking...
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Now he's very, very out. But his family....
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: We were so poor. Right. I thought his family was rich. Right.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: His family lived in like a nice trailer. A nice,
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: a particularly nice trailer.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: That's how rough it was.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was, I shit you not, dude, and they
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: would take me on their family vacations and I'm like, wow, dude,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: we go to Bally's in Atlantic City.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: His dad's just throwing bones at Bally's. You're like, it's
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: your fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: And the guy, you're driving in a trailer to Bally's.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: This was, I mean, yeah, dude, I think back, it's
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: so funny how poor this family was.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And how, and they looked down their nose at me.
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: Like I remember feeling like, I was like.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, I grew up. We didn't have a ton of money.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Like I had an, I had a backyard pool. It
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: was an in-ground pool. but it was six feet. So
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: when you dove into it, you had to dive out.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Like you couldn't dive down. And a lot of my
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: friends had the eight foot, 10 foot pool, 12 foot
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: pool was much larger.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: When you, when you were to jump in, you could
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: dive straight down.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: So when you, but when you, when you're up in
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: the air and you realize I can't dive straight down,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I have to dive out to me.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: That's what poverty is. The thought, the thought of how
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: deep is the pool is poverty to me, because a
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: big pool where you don't even worry about how deep
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: it is. Cause it just is deep. You just, that
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: to me is.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: We use, so our landlord when we were kids, Mary Leone,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: she was this fucking old white lady.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: She's still around? No, she's very dead. Long dead.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: But her niece, or I guess her grandkids, right? They
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: were like, these kids, they were like, you know, they
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: just had like the fun toys. But once again, these
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: people were all trash. None of these people were rich.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: No, none of them. But they had like a.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: An in-ground pool, but there was like algae in it.
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: It just wasn't, it was a fucking garbage ass family.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: And I remember they would just like be in the pool.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: They would invite us in sometimes, but literally one of
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: the biggest like cringey things in my life I think
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: back is just one time I was like standing in
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: the pool wanting them to invite me in. And like
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: just staring. And I was like, I want to go
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: back in time and just fucking... Tell yourself don't do that.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: What are you fucking doing, dude? Have some pride. What
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: the fuck is wrong with you? Fuck their pool. Go
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: get your own pool.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: Right. Yeah. Yeah. Where would you and your family go
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: on a trip? Did you ever take a vacation?
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: My mom would take us. Now, I remember.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: And this was, she was a little, she did drugs.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: My mom was a heroin addict and a prostitute.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: And a prostitute. And I knew this.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: I knew my mom was a prostitute for as long
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: as I can remember. Because I remember my. It was
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: like this old guy who was my sister's godfather actually,
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: and I caught them like naked in bed together. And
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: I remember even at like three or four years old
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: just thinking, I was like, well, she's not fucking him
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: for pleasure. I was like, she's being paid for this.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: And I just sort of connected the dots.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Even as a young child. Young child.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: I just knew. And I sort of, it was, you know,
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: I just knew that's what it was.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, were you proud a little bit?
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was collecting a commission on it.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: No, to me, there's something about that that is a
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: little bit, you go, hey, mom is really working.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Mommy's working!
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: No, I think I sort of blocked it from my
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: memory for a while. But I think back now, I
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: just remember having the thought that this is for fucking money. Um,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: so yeah, my mom was fucking trash. So we were
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: just really, really poor. You know, she wasn't, she wasn't
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: a high end prostitute either.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: Like, right. Honestly, if you're a hooker, by the way,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: you don't need to say that. Well, that's crazy though.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that. You don't need to say, I love that.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: You have to, you go just in case anyone out
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: there was wondering, um, my.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Mother, she was not high. She was an attractive woman.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: In fact, if you go on my Instagram, you know,
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: high end prostitutes, not only attractive, it's like, it's a
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: whole thing. No, they gotta be kind of... They're hot. Well,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: they gotta be hot. First and foremost, they gotta be hot.
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: All right, go to my Instagram right now. They gotta
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: have the money to travel, right? Go to Mother's Day.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Go down right to the right. That's my mom with
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the red hair. Okay, right here. Okay, right here. My
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: mom cleaned up. No, she's pretty. She's a pretty woman.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: She cleaned up.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Okay, that's my sister right there. Now, she would
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: not be a high end.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: I just look at you and your sister. This is
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: what I think. And I say to myself.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: God bless this woman, because I would have abandoned you
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: kids instead of fucking to feed you two, which, by
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: the way, you're clearly fed. I would have abandoned you
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: two immediately, like at a truck stop in Jersey.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: But good for her.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, Iris, but one of my- What a sad
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: family photo.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Growing up, one of my women that I looked up
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: to was a prostitute, my friend's mother. And she would
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: explain to us how she was always a prostitute. She
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: was still kind of a prostitute and she took all
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: that money and invested it in stocks and knew all
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: about the market, and she was very interested.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. That's crazy.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: My mom didn't do any of that. My mom bought
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: heroin with it.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: And I think when she was hard up for heroin,
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: I think her prices would drop dramatically.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Right, yeah. Then it was just kind of a.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: But she would be a $ 300 an hour hooker.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Right. Mid-range. Did she ever admit it to you?
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: No, we never got there.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: You never broached it either? Never got there. Were there
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: men coming and going? Well, that's what they were paying
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: her for. Right. But would you notice like different guys around?
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: No, so this is when I was really young. I
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: don't think she was hooking when I was like, at
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: an age where I really had memories of it.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Gotcha. So I was like three or four. Well, that
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: was nice of her.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, she ended up, you know, becoming a hairdresser,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: which is actually, I have less respect for hairdressers than.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: I do for hookers. Oh, much less. I mean.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: But here's what's nice about her. She didn't sell you
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: or your sister. Some prostitutes like, you know, you know
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: what I mean?
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, in fairness to her, it was a
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: hard sell. That would have been a tough sell. You
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: and your sister. I mean, that would have been a
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: very rough.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: You got to be into both. If you're into both
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: of us, that's a lot.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Well, you've got to be a pedophile and kind of blind.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Be into fat cholos.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got to have a fat cholo fetish as
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: a pedophile. Like, imagine, are there those pedophiles that go
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: to Epstein's Island and they're like, yeah, I know, you've
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: got all these thin, you know, white kids, but, like,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: I want fat cholos.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: I want fat Mexican kids, not hot Eastern European.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: I want gathering of the juggalos cholos. Like... Yeah.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: So our vacations that I remember, we would go to
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: Seaside Heights, New Jersey.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: Right. Because it's nice because it's the beach and she
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: could score.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: She could probably just find heroin on the beach.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Right. Yeah. And what would that entail, Seaside Heights? Would
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: you get a room somewhere? I think we would get,
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: she called it a cabin. Okay.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: But what I remember it as was.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Like a shed, and there was like one building that's
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: almost like a shed with a couple beds, and you
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: could enter in on either side. Very, very vague memories
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: of these Seaside Heights cabins. Probably like 15 bucks a night,
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: something like that, right? Some really, really fucking cheap.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: When you say enter on either side, I'm thinking like
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: public restroom.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Kind of, yeah, like that, almost like that.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like you're like, my memories were like, there
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: was like three bathrooms. There were no beds and you
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: could enter on either side. And there were hand dryers
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: on each side.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Of the wall to dry your hands. And she would
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: set up a bag, sleeping bag for me and my
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: sister on the floor of this. So you would stay
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: for two nights a night?
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: Probably something like that, two nights. I don't even remember.
• 21:49

  Speaker 1: You guys know I love break-in protection that my SimpliSafe
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: home security system gets me, but it's not always... outside
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: forces that you need a SimpliSafe protection from. This is
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Joshua's story, a SimpliSafe customer from Indiana. A few months ago,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: he fell asleep with pizza rolls still in the oven.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: That could have been disastrous. Thousands of dollars in damage
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: to his kitchen, home, maybe even worse. Luckily, Joshua had
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: a comprehensive SimpliSafe system equipped with everything to prevent break-ins
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: and smoke detectors to sniff out fires. He was startled
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: awake to the sound of a 95 decibel alarm from
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: his SimpliSafe base station. Seconds later, he got a call
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: from SimpliSafe Professional Monitoring. The pizza rolls didn't make it,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: but Josh did. He believes SimpliSafe probably saved his life
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: that night.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: Wow. I love it. I love, because often I'll put
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: things in my oven and then go to sleep.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: And SimpliSafe will prevent me from being cooked like a
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: pizza roll. Protecting people when their guard is down is
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: just one of the reasons more than 4 million people
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: use and love SimpliSafe. And with a comprehensive SimpliSafe system,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: 24-7 professional monitoring, because that's what you need, the monitoring.
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: That's what makes it different, right? Oh, yeah. Because people
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: are actually monitoring it. They care. So if you're laying
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: there like a big lug with a bunch of pizza
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: rolls about to blow up your whole house, somebody's going,

  Speaker 2: top of the line.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Top of the line vacation my mother ever took us on.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: Hartford, Connecticut. Oh my God.
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: To see WrestleMania 11. Now it was cool.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: That's kind of cool. That's not bad. That's actually not bad.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: We were massive pro wrestling fans.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Give it up for, hey, give it up for this whore.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: She did, it was the one fucking thing she really,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: she spent the money, like, you know, I think at
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: the time the tickets were probably 75 bucks a pop,
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: which is a lot of money for her.
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah. A lot of money.
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: No, that's fucking cool as fuck. We were like, you know,
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: 20 rows back maybe. You saw us on camera.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: We were like along the gate. You and your sister.
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: Me and my sister.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: It was the best time ever. They do a fan festival.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: Where you meet all the wrestlers. Now I feel bad. No,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: don't feel bad. But very influential.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: If you look at the WrestleMania Fan Festival, what we
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: do with Skank Fest, that was one of the best memories.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: The WrestleMania Fan Festival, you show up. And it's not
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: just fucking like autographs. They have a lot of interactive shit.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? You're meeting the wrestlers, you
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: do meet and greets and shit, but they're like doing
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: fucking other things. There's like shows happening.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: You know what's hilarious? Stan Hope goes on Rogan and
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: brings up how cool Skankfest is. This is ridiculous. And
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: then Rogan just shuts it down immediately and goes, you
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: should do your own fest. And he's trying to have
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: a nice pitch. It's a nice pitch. He's like, I
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: did this festival. It's just the greatest thing ever. And
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: Brogan's like, he was like, oh, yeah.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: He's like, that's really probably because the comedy scene down
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: in Houston is great. He's like, there's nothing to do
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: with the comedy scene.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: In fucking Houston. There's nothing to do with it.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Mostly from New York City to Houston and fucking did
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: the most unique, fun, interactive, craziest comedy festival ever. But
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: Doug Sandhop should just steal the idea. He should just
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: take it.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: Joe's like, you should do your own, man.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: The same guy who assaulted Carlos Mancia for stealing a
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: shitty Ari Shaffir joke. The shittiest Ari Shafir joke that's
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: ever been fucking written.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Well, he stole more than that. I know. He stole
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: a lot. He stole a lot. But, you know. That
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: was a straw. No, but I'm kidding. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. No, no.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: We love him. But, I mean, it is funny that
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: he was just like. Steal it. Do your own. Well,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: it's not stealing. He just said do your own fast.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: I think he's a little disconnected from what Skankfest is.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: I think he thinks that's what Bert's doing.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: By the way, I hope he's disconnected. He's worth hundreds
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: of millions of dollars. I hope he's disconnected from it.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean, like, you know, Bert's doing his
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: own festival. It's not the same thing, though.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: There's nothing like Skankfest. You got to go and see
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: it and know what it is in order to fucking.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: You know. And then what is, what would you say
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: the difference with Skankfest is? Is it people get raped?
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: It's a party. It's a party. Well, yeah. Well, they
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: don't tell.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: It's a party. Here's the thing with Skankfest.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: All things, the fucking, whatever they call it, Netflix is
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: a joke festival.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Here's what I will say about Skankfest. It is an
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: immersive experience. Yeah. Meaning that it is three days.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: It involves not only going to see standup, but you
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: have like other events that comedians go to and we'll
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: be at.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: And you can like mix with.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: You can live podcasts, just fighting pro wrestling. There's fucking just,
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: there's mechanical bulls and fucking games. And, Beer pong tournaments.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: It's stupid, dude. It's a fun thing. It's a fun thing.

  Speaker 1: My expertise, I just want to do the state of

  Speaker 1: the L.A. podcast scene, the great enduring scene that will
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: never die. And it'll be called the L.A. podcast scene,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: the scene that will.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Never die, and it will have the photos of the
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: people who are currently in prison.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: Tim, can we play word association L.A. comic scene?
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Sure. All right, ready? You just got to fire it off.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Don't be a pussy. Whitney Cummings. Drugs. Bobby Lee. Korean.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's the first thing that comes to mind.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: Brian Callen. Rough year. Gringo Poppy. Kind of... brilliant. Kind of, kind.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Of brilliantly, brilliantly funny in a way that no comedy
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: special has ever been because it's, it's mysterious in a
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: way because you're looking at it and you're going like,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of choices made and you don't know
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: why those choices were made.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: Of course. Yeah. The comedy store. Uh, Fine. That's it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: I can't name another word. I mean, that's, you know. Yeah.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Well, here's what's amazing about The Gringo Poppy. This is
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: what's truly amazing about it, okay?
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: You're watching it. And you're in kind of, it's, it's,
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: you're in a little bit of disbelief. Yeah. Because it is.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: I wonder, and I know he's trying to get good
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: at stand-up, and I respect the hell out of that.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: The question is, did it have to be a special? No.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: That's the real question.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: No.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: No, it didn't. Yeah. And I know one of these
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: guys who, like, hates on Brennan. That's not shitting on him.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: He's a nice guy, and I know he's trying to,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: you know, like.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: But the question is, with that particular thing, you go,
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: did that have to be.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: I said this on Realize Podcast. He should have friends going...
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: Because here's the thing. He is a charming dude, right?
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Yes. And he.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: I think... I don't know at all, you know, but
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: I think... there's probably something that he's probably a funny,
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: he probably makes his friends laugh, right?
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that he's really great at podcasting on
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: that specific show for that audience.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: Which they want MMA. There's an audience of people in
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: America that want what he does.
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And he does it for them. I am not
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: that audience. Of course. But that's fair. But that's fair.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: And here's the thing.
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: We all go out. Because I don't care about.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: Everyone stinks at comedy for the first five, ten years.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: 20, 30 years.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: There's a fucking minimum of five. If you get good
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: and start getting shit.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Under five. That's like fast. It's rare. That's fast. Michael Che.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Who's my best friend. And he's one of the people.
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: You're talking about guys that they got like.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: It's rare. Very rare. Yeah. Very rare.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: And you see it and you're like, God damn, those
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: guys got good and they got good fast and they
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: started getting things.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: I was pretty rare.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I got pretty good pretty quickly. But again, I didn't
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: really pop until I started doing this.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Of course. That was what I needed to do.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: So, but that's the thing that's like.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Because stand-up is kind of gay and stupid. Stand-up, when
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: we came up, you didn't even... Stand-up's kind of gay
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: and dumb. Yeah. Let's be honest. It's... When I watch
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: Brendan do that.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: It's like I go, here's a big tough guy who
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: I should just see in a Ferrari and he should
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: be able to rip people's faces off with his catcher mid-hands.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: And I see him running around the stage going, I go,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: you're gay now. You've become gay. Why are you gay?
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: He was a fucking knight. He was a knight. He
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: was a knight. He's a knight. And now he's a jester.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Now he's gay. He's a gay jester. He's a gay man.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: He's a fully gay man. When you watch a special,
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: he's like, woo! And you go, what, why? What is
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: this disease? Maybe they should come out next week. What
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: is this disease?
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: You're six foot six, you're an Adonis, you could beat
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: up 99% of the.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: People in the world. You could kill men and fuck women,
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: and you don't have to fuck these skanks at the
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: comedy store! Fuck hot women. Annie Letterman? Fuck hot women.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: What the fuck is wrong with you? And instead, he's
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: fully gay on stage in Dallas in front of 45
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: people being like, the lion is at my door. It's just,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: it's puzzling.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: It's, yeah, you don't need it. When you don't need it.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: But that's the thing.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Like, you know, I feel bad shitting on his comedy
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: because I don't shit on people's comedy.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. Me saying you shouldn't be a
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: comedian is the highest respect I can pay you. Yeah.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: If I look at you and go, you shouldn't really
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: do comedy, it's me going, you are better than this.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: I truly believe he's like better than this. Until you
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: start to do this.
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: This was nobody's A plan.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Nobody.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: No, I was in a little kid being like, dude,
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: I want to fucking dance like a monkey for strangers.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: And pray to God that they like me and that
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: they react to my words in a club.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: Or I won't feel anything.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: That's right. That's crazy.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: That's a fucking, that's pathetic. Really, honestly, if aliens came
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: down and watched us doing comedy.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: It's gay. Making these sounds. And I don't even mean
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: gay like having sex with men. I mean like it's
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: just cringe. Yeah. A little. Yeah. It's a little pathetic.
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: I feel embarrassed that I need the validation of strangers.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: And others should too. And even though we make people happy. Yeah.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: It comes from the need. Yeah. And I just feel
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: like knowing that.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: I would give up your happiness forever. for my happiness.
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: Just so everyone knows, their happiness is inconsequential in this.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: It means nothing to any, like what people say to me,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: they're like, your podcast got me through the quarantine. I'm like,
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: you have no idea what it's done for me.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm glad it's helped you, and it makes
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: me feel good that it's helped them, but I'm like,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: to be honest.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: It helped you cope with your mom dying. Yeah, I'm like,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: I'm glad it helped you, but it really helped me,
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: you know?
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Oh, dude, I'm fucking having a weird fucking muscle spasm
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: in my stomach.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: Because I did sit-ups for the first time ever.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Oh. Not ever, like yesterday. But my point is that
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: when I tell somebody, hey, Stan, it may not be
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: for you, it's not an egg.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: No, it's not. And yeah, whatever. You just don't need
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: to put out specials. David Tell puts out a special.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Every eight years. And he's one of the greatest of
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: all time.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Why is Brandon Shaw putting out two specials in two years?
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: I don't even love the special that I just shot.
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: And it's coming out because here's the deal. It's like
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: I wrote the material two years ago. You saw the
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: jokes two years ago at Vinnie Brand's Stress Factory. But
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: my whole thing is I want to do it live
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: as much as I can. So by the time the
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: special comes out, a lot of it's topical.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: It's irrelevant. I don't love it. I didn't love the audience.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: I didn't love it. It is what it is. But,
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: you know, whatever people want to do with their lives,
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: it can do. Yeah.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Of course.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: We live in America. More power to them. Yeah, we
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: live in America. More power to them. Yeah, for sure.
• 35:40

• 38:28
  Speaker 2: The Enchanted Forest. Look this up.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: This is a place called the Enchanted Forest. My parents
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: took me there. I'm almost positive they were trying to
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: sell me to human traffickers.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Is this a renaissance type fair? It's, where is it, Ben? Yeah,
• 38:40

• 38:43
  Speaker 1: No, it's like in like, fuck, it's in like upstate
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: New York. And it was by Canada, maybe it's in
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: upstate New York. And it was like this weird place
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: that they, I'm pretty sure they.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Were trying to sell me. Enchanted Forest Water Safari? Yeah, it's, yeah.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: And Old Forge? Yeah, yeah, Old Forge, this place. Okay.
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: The Enchanted Forest, it's like a water park. That's probably
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: pretty cool though. It's whatever. When you're a kid, it
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: was probably cool. Yeah, they got this guy, Paul Bunyan.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: It was like one of those things where I think
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: they thought it was going to be good.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Like, that's the other thing.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: You know it sucks when like the coolest characters they
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: have are like old, Yeah, it's like Humpty Dumpty.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Like they couldn't afford. They couldn't get anybody better. Like
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Sesame Place.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: We'd do that.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: We went to Hershey Park. We went to Sesame Place.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: We went to... My dad, when they got divorced, my
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: dad took me to cool places. Because then it was like, okay,
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I don't have to deal with your mother.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: So then he took me to nice... Here's what happens
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: when you're a divorced dad. Me and my son's mother,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: we co-parent. And I do a Father's Day trip with
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: him every year.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah. And I just let him spin the globe. That's right. Wow.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Wherever he wants to go. Wherever he wants to go.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: Whoa.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: And look, he's stupid. He's nine. He's a child. Right.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: And he can't spin that much.
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: I can fucking sort of goad him into.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: What if he spins a globe and he's like, I
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: want to go to Sierra Leone. I want to go
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: to the diamond mines. I want to find blood diamonds.
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: But my dad would take me to nice places because
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: my mother wasn't involved.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: Well, and he wants to say, it's a fuck you
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: to the mom. I want my son, when he grows up.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: To be able to tell his mother, I went to
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: all these places without you. I went to fucking Rome
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: this summer because my dad took me to Rome. I'm
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: telling you, a great kid's trip, and I told Louis,
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: is Australia. Yeah. Because it's just too far, but it's
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: a great kid's trip because the animals, all that stuff,
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: the zoos. It's a very cool trip. You know, it's
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: very cool.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: It's just a lot to 20 hours on a flight
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: with a kid.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: It's too much.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah. He's a little bit older. I'll do it with
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: him for sure. He's a mature kid, too.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: We're going to Rome this summer. That's amazing.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: My parents never took me. I mean, we took one
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: trip to Europe. when I was five that my grandfather
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: paid for, and the whole family went. And I was
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: so sick, the doctor goes, don't put him on a plane.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: And my mother and father went, well, we're going to Europe.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: So he's going to Europe.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: So there's literally a photo of me on Instagram a
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: long time ago where I'm literally like a sick four-year-old
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: on a cross, you know, going overseas to Europe.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy. I didn't fly until I was 19.
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: 19 was the first time I was on a flight.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: I went to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Yeah. With my girlfriend. Yeah.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: It was her graduation trip. I had graduated the year before.
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: Right. It was my girl.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: And then the lead singer of Coheed and Cambria.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: Was dating my girlfriend's best friend. So he was on
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: this trip as well.
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, interesting.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: He has no Coheed and Cambria.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: I've heard of them. It's like a gay, emo-y type.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: They do okay, right? They're great.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: They're really talented. They're very progressive, almost like a new
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: age Rush.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: Okay. They're fucking, yeah. I don't care. Yeah. They were cool. Well, good.
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: That was my first time on a flight.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: It's difficult right now with the, you know, a lot
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: of families are having a tough time taking their kids,
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: you know, places. Yeah.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: And that, I think, can be alleviated a little bit
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: by trying to figure out. Like, let's look up where
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: you went. You went to a place.
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: Okay, so people confuse Port Aransas and South Padre Island.
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: South Padre is actually nice. And people give me a
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: lot of shit for saying South Padre.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: No, it's not. First of all, it's not nice. I
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: don't think it is. People giving you shit are animals.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Shut the fuck up. Yeah, because this is South Padre Island.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: There's nine nice places in the country. The Hamptons, Malibu,
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: Beverly Hills, Palm Beach, Jackson Hole, Aspen. There's like 10
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: places that are fucking nice.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: And Florida. Parts of it. So the place I went actually. Yeah.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this shit's all, everything you guys are naming is
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: fancy as fuck to me.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: It's like, you know, we seem to go on vacations.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: We didn't go to Six Flags.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: By the way, they're making this look better in the things.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: They do this all the time. They lighten the water.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: They make it look a certain type of blue, and
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: then you get there, and it's not that. That's what
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: it is. And then that's what it ends up being.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: So that's what it is. That's what it is. Yeah.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: That's what it is. And then Ben would go there
• 43:06
  Speaker 2: with his family. They'd stay in like a motel and
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: they'd eat like, what would you eat? Like imitation crab.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: They would eat like fake crab. And that's rough. I
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: never had it that bad.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Like other than my mother was a schizophrenic and my family,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: I had a very loveless family of people who hated
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: each other. And I had the gay thing where you
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: had to stay, keep who you are secretive.
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: And I was a drug addict, but I, We never
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: were there.
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: Was there anybody who found out you were gay before
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: you came out and you were like, dude, you got
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: to fucking keep this under wraps?
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: A few people I sucked off had suspicions. They were suspicious,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: but they didn't go. No.
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, there are people that thought so, but nobody
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: found out. To find out, you'd have to have proof.
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: I didn't believe you were gay for like a year.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. He's not gay. No, I mean, it's still very
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: much people don't believe it. But it's only because they
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: don't know people. Like, if you meet people, you meet
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: gay people that are not like what you see on TV.
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: Well, I think that's an act. Very often, it's performative.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: Very often.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: Some of it is, but some guys are just very feminine,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: but then some guys take it to the next level.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: Well, they lean into it. They lean into it. There's
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: a choice at one point. All black, like, gangsters, if
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: you're really black, you're leaning into it. Yeah. Like, if
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: you're really, you know what I mean? I watch people,
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I watch like... You got people that lean in.
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: Dude, I watch some of my black friends, and they... they,
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: I watched them write like in Ebonics on like social media.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, I know you have autocorrect, you have
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: to go through so much trouble to write that way.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why would you spend the time? It's so much
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: more effort to fucking write that. But it's that identity.
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's an identity and you lean into it.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: But you, what's.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Interesting about you is you're a Puerto Rican white supremacist.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: You know, as it says in the press.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: No, I'm a truth teller.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: But what's interesting about you is you and me bond
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: in this way. That stuff's gross to us. When the
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: identity politics gets... Like, we're not ashamed of who we are.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: We don't hide any of it. Yes, I pretend to
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: have a wife. And yes, you tell people you're Italian.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: But... No, but we don't... There's something about us. We
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: just went out into the group thing. No, we're not.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: Groups don't... I think social media is training people to,
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: you know, put themselves out there in a certain way, right?
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: And you and I both, right?
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: I think we recognize.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: Number one, what's funnier, but what's better, what's more relatable
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: to sort of like really be much more real versions
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: of ourselves. You get a very real version of me
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: and a very real version of you on these shows, right?
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, a lot of other people, they're
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: very protected in what they do and how they present themselves.
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: And in comedy, it's less so. I think comedy and podcasting,
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: much less so. And I think you and I, much
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: less so than a lot of our peers. Yeah, our
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: peers that do it as well. So, you know, that's...
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: You know, that's, you know, it's just phoniness. You know,
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: you sort of see, I tweeted this the other day.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: Like, Mark Normand is a black woman. You would never know.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: You have no idea who he is. No, I don't know.
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: But I tweeted this the other day. You see people who,
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: on Instagram, will respond to every comment, right? So somebody
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: will write a comment, and then they'll write heart face, emoji, whatever.
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: Thank you, love you. And what those people are doing
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: is they're manipulating the algorithm. Like, Instagram will move your
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: content further up. and show it to more people if
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: you're engaging with everybody, right? So it's just, and it's
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: a sociopathic thing, and it's usually like hot chicks, but
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: they respond to everything, and they're like, heart, love you,
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: thank you. And you're like, dude, you're just like blind,
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: you know, like blindly just going and saying that to
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: everybody to, and pretending to like these people and pretending
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: to have a real relationship with them just to manipulate
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: an algorithm.
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: It's sick. It's sickening. It's really sick. It's fucking psychotic.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: It's crazy. So, yeah. But we see people do very
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: well like that. No, no, no.
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: Anybody who's famous on Instagram, any Instagram model, any TikToker,
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: they all do that.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: That's all they do.
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: That's all they do. It's a part of their job.
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: But the same way you have to fucking, you're in
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: your job, you answer emails in the morning, it's their
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: job to go in. Very often they have social media
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: managers that are doing it and they respond to every
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: single thing.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: You'll see it.
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Any influencer, they respond to every single thing.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: And what.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: And it just, again, I guess it just bolsters this
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: idea that this community you're part of, you're an active
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: member of it.
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: Well, I think most people go, oh, they responded. This
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: is great.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: And they feel that thing. And that's why they're there almost, right?
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: And then it's reciprocal.
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: And then they respond. Yeah. But I don't know, dude.
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: I just.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: I respond to a lot of people on social media,
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: but not everybody. It's just not a fucking, you know,
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: like if somebody sends me a DM, if I'm in,
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: if I'm traveling, you might get a response very often.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: I'll respond occasionally. Yeah, dude.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: Just some random fucking person and be like, oh, thanks dude.
• 47:47
  Speaker 3: Appreciate it. Yeah. But then, you know, it bites you
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: in the ass. I have a guy right now. I
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: wish you, dude, I guess he DM me a while
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: ago and I responded. Then he DM me again. I
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: was like driving or something and I just saw it.
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: I didn't say anything. It's fine. Whatever.
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: And then he fucking DMs me again, because I saw
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: that with middle fingers, like, oh, dude, I guess you're
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: too cool for me now. Like, dude, we're not friends.
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: I responded to you once. So whatever, dude. You're damned
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: if you don't. But I don't fucking play those games
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: where you're trying to just manipulate an algorithm.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: You're trying to.
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: you know, trying to game the system instead of just
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: being good, instead of being funny or being interesting, it's
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: a lot of gaming the system.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: And that's what LA is a lot of, right? For sure.
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of people that they didn't come up
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: and they didn't go through those months where they were fucking,
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: they didn't know where they were going to eat. They
• 48:31
  Speaker 3: didn't know how they were going to fucking pay their rent.
• 48:33
  Speaker 3: They didn't even, you know, they just, you know, it
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: worked out very quickly for a lot of these people,
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: you know, and it was a lot less of a
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: struggle out here, it seems.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: A lot of people out here, but the flip side
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: of that, Or maybe the full picture of that is
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: that a lot of those people are dead inside in
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: ways you can't even imagine. Yeah. Like their material successes
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: do not even, they don't belie.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: Like the idea, these people are husks, cold husks of
• 49:06
  Speaker 2: human beings.
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: That don't... Like, the success doesn't even matter anymore because
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: they have forgotten everything organically about who they are and everything.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: And it's interesting. And they're just kind of... all on
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: some low dose of some type of drug.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: You made an interesting point before we were driving, just
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: talking about how you got to pay for it.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: We owe debts. We owe debts. Can you get me
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: a lighter, please? Why aren't there lighters in the studio? Wow.
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: You know what it is? You want to talk about
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: ungrateful and like absurd. And, oh, maybe it's in my car.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's in my car. I mean, there should be letters.
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: But again, it's like, it's, I mean, this guy, you
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: want to talk about someone who's went on a nice ride.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I mean- Anybody could do this, Ben.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: Just so you know. Yeah. Let's just say all podcast producers,
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: anyone can do your job. Very few people can do
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: what we do. Very few people can do my job.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: Anyone can do the podcast producer job. But they don't
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: think that. It's self-taught. At this point, the technology is not,
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: it's intuitive. They think it's their show. No, all of
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: these people, from Jamie Vernon on down, they think it's
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: their show.
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: You know what it is, dude? They have to feel
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: that way in order to be good at their job.
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: And he's great at his job. But anybody can do it. Well,
• 50:33
  Speaker 2: who would else be great at his job? It's an app. Anybody.
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: A laugh app, where I would say something funny, I'd
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: press it, and go... They would do this when I
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: worked at Equinox.
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: My last day job ever was working at Equinox selling
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: gym memberships. And every department, they would give you like
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: a Braveheart speech, right? They'd be like, oh, the fucking,
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: you know, the front desk, you guys are the heartbeat
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: of this club. You're the first people that they see.
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: Without you guys, this club doesn't exist. Same exact fucking
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: speech to the sales people, same speech to the group
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: fitness people, same speech to the maintenance people. Without the
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: maintenance people.
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, without the maintenance people, Equinox, you're the beating heart
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: of Equinox, the maintenance people.
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: They did, and you'd see these old Mexican ladies, they'd
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: fucking have this sense of pride.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: We are the first line of defense. You're the Marines
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: of the toilet.
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: And they would feel, but everyone would have this sense
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: of pride And together they all came, they create a
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: fucking great business. A really legitimately great business. So you
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: have to make, he's a front desk. Ben is a
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: front desk girl at Equinox.
• 51:34
  Speaker 2: That's right. That's what he is. He's a hot piece
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: of ass at Equinox.
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: He's cute, but he's the fucking first person they see
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: and he should feel important.
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: Because it's not a bad job to be the front
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: desk at Equinox.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: They can hire another hot girl, sure.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're here. You're here. You know what, Jessica?
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: You're here. And you know what it is?
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: They could hire some other big-titted bitch. And Ben does
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: a lot more. He edits, he did things like that.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: But the front desk at Equinox does a lot more, too.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, dude.
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: It's not just checking people in, dude. They have to,
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: I believe they have to.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: They know the whole gym. They know the property well.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: They have to answer the phone. And they use the
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: word the property. They have to learn. They'll be like,
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: I know the property. I know the gym. Like, yeah,
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: they learn.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: They're the liaison between new members and the salespeople.
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: Right. Come on. No. Yeah.
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: They're important.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: It's an important job. Jamie Vernon, like, we were talking once,
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: and I wanted to end it. Jamie Vernon's like, you know,
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: our show and our show. And I go, what are you?
• 52:26
  Speaker 2: You say our show. Oh, excuse me. Excuse me.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: That's what happened to Red Band. That's why he's on
• 52:32
  Speaker 3: the fucking Outskies.
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: He got too cocky. That's why Jamie needs to not
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: go down the Red Band path. He's going to be
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: producing fucking.
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: Well, Joe, what I mean, I don't want to even
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: get into these statistics because they're troubling. But it just
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: came out that Joe is now getting 500 listeners an episode.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: It's over. This is statistics. This isn't me. These are statistics.
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: I won't even do the show anymore. He calls me
• 53:01
  Speaker 3: all the time. Lewis will not do it. He fucking
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: calls me all the time. I'm like, no, Joe, beat it.
• 53:05
  Speaker 3: I wrote, who dis? New phone.
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: How do we get you in touch with him? Because
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: he's not responding to you.
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: He will not respond to me. Can you call him
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: right now and ask him why on speaker?
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: Okay. No, you're not going to. He really will. Hello. Hi.
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: Who's this? Who is it? Yeah, no. Who is it?
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: I think we can. Is this Louis? How about this?
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: Remember how he was going to sneak Anthony Cumia back
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: into Sirius XM?
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: I didn't.
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: I don't. So when Anthony got fired from Sirius XM,
• 53:36
  Speaker 3: he went on Jim and Sam. And he was going
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: to sneak Anthony back in with him.
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: Oh. The whole fucking thing. Why don't we sneak me in?
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: Next time he does one of those fun Comic Hang
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: podcasts with Ari and Norman.
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: Tim got so much fatter. I'm just under a coat. No,
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: it's Lewis. Watch out, man. That would be hilarious. Well,
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: you should move to Austin. Yeah, that's it. Then he
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: can't avoid me. If you move to Austin. By the way,
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: it would be hilarious if you moved to Austin and
• 54:07

  Speaker 2: New York drama is like people hang themselves. People try
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: to kill themselves. Yeah. My bed is covered in rat feces.
• 57:02
  Speaker 2: I just, you know what it is.
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: The best thing about New York, dude, you go to like,
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: people who have money, too. Like, Big Jay's got money.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: Big Jay has money. Because he's got talent.
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: He's got a nice apartment.
• 57:09

• 57:13
  Speaker 2: New York's nothing's nice. You're like, everything's expensive. And you're like,
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: this sucks. It's dirty. There's garbage everywhere in front of
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: your building. To house money in New York, you have
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: to have like $ 100 million. It's fucking wild, dude. It's crazy.
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: It's a wild thing.
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: And you go down to Tribeca, one of the most
• 57:27
  Speaker 3: expensive neighborhoods in New York, everything looks like shit, dude.

• 57:42
  Speaker 2: It's a different life and it makes you funnier. It does.
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: But the funniest people in the world come from LA.
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: The funniest people in the world are good looking surfers
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: and people that are mixed martial artists. Yeah. That's where
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: funny comes from. Funny comes from hot people. LA just
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: needs to struggle a little more. Funny comes from when
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: hot people get bored. If we know one thing about comedy,
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: it's when a hot person is bored, that's when the
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: genius comes.
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true.
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: When a hot person has nothing to do that day,
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: they open their mouth and the genius comes out.
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: The biggest struggle for LA comedians, this is the one
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: you hear, it's like, dude, I struggled, dude. I was
• 58:23
  Speaker 3: a doorman at the comedy store.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: The biggest struggle is when they actually have to do comedy. Yeah.
• 58:27
  Speaker 2: Like the biggest struggle is when they actually have to
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: do it. It's like the vast majority of it is like,
• 58:32
  Speaker 2: here's a photo with me kind of doing it. And
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: then when they actually, when people actually like go, like
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: do something. That's why a lot of the funny people
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: out here, whether it's me, Annie, Bill Burr, and I'm
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: not saying I'm in any of the categories of these.
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: I'm not putting us in any category. But like Sebastian,
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: those are East Coast guys. Yeah.
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: Those are East Coast people. Yeah, all the funny ones
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: are East Coast guys.
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: That are transplants. Yeah.
• 58:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, nobody's really from L.A. Who the fuck's from L.A.?
• 58:57
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, none of them are. Nobody. Well, there's just D'Elia,
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: I guess. D'Elia's from L.A. Yeah. And he's funny.
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: I don't really know his stand-up that well.
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: I don't either.
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever heard him tell a joke.
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: He's a funny guy, and he murders. No, no, I
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: think what he does to women is funny. I'm a fan.
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: I'm a fan of that.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: I said women.
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: They're all adults. I backed him up on this. These
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: young women. I feel bad for the guy. It's like
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: we all got to pretend that 18-year-olds aren't hot.
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: No, they're hot.
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: By the way, Tim Dillon, his view from his, I
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: don't want to give too much information, but it's directly
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: into Beverly Hills High School.

  Speaker 2: Absolutely. Into the cafeteria, you look down into it. I
• 59:52

• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: Irish twink. Literally, this is the conversation I have with
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: True Geordie. I swear to God, I'm reading the conversation, okay?
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: Listen to this.
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not even kidding. He goes, this Brandon Chow versus
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Bobby Leach is wild, bro. It's a car crash. Hope
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: you're in the UK soon. And then I go, I'm
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: going to call you in an hour. I said, call
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: me when you wake up, winky face.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: We'll plan it. True Geordie. He goes, sweet, thanks. So
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: then he goes, then he texts me. He goes, you awake, bro?
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: Do you know what True Geordie looks like? Get up,
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: True Geordie. I'm mortified. Get up, True Geordie. I swear
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: to God. Look at True Geordie, OK? This guy's a tank.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: This is what you want. Or no, you want a twink.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 3: You don't like a guy this big.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: No, but this guy's a tank. Listen to this. He
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: texts me. I text him, right? I go, you awake, bro?
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 2: You awake, bro. Ready? He texts me back. Yeah, just
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: listen to your podcast about Brendan raping you. I'm crying laughing.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: I text him back. You're allowed to rate me winky face. No,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: you didn't. Swear to God. You're allowed to rate me
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: winky face. He texts me back. I know because you
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: won't say anything because you want it to be about
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: the work. I respect that. LOL. He goes, do you
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: know when you may be in London? I go, I'm
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: flying you here. Did you forget? He doesn't understand. You're
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: stroking your cock the whole time. I go, I'm flying
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: you here. Did you forget?
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: I know this type of texting. You are masturbating while
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: you're doing this.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: It was in my hand, maybe. And then I go,
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: I'm flying here. Did you forget? Now I start to worry.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: I'm like, is this twink? Does he have like a dementia?
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: Which I'm fine with. But he goes, I go, oh,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: who is this? And he goes, oh, true Geordie Bryant.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my God. How embarrassing. I felt really
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: embarrassed about that.
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 2: That's hilarious. But, you know, nothing Chris did is proven.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: No.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: So the reality is I'm a person where I go, hey. Also,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: I don't think what he did....
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 3: It wasn't illegal, and I don't give a shit if
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: you think a guy's creepy.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: Right, it doesn't matter. I don't fucking care, dude.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: And there's a lot of fucking, there's a lot of
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: creepy people. In fact, most people are creepy. You just
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 3: don't know about their fucking creepiness. Louis C.K., it was
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: just being a creep, right?
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 2: A little creepy. A little creepy, dude. Be a little fucking,
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: it happens, dude. The worst thing D'Elia did was that
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: he produced a school play. It's the worst thing he
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 2: did was he, I think he funded and produced a
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: school play.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: I don't, I don't actually know that he did anything.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: My understanding when it was all happening, it was all
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: like 18 or 19 year old girls.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: It was like a girl that was like 17.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 3: I guess when he found out she was 17, this
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: was the creepiest thing that he did.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: He found out she was 17. Then like a year later,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: after she had turned 18, he hit her up again.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: And that's a little bit, it's a little bit, it's
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: good memory. It's not, but it's not fucking grooming. It's
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: not a teacher. He's not a fucking person in his life. Dude,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: he likes hot young girls.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: Most guys like hot young girls. Most guys don't have
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 3: the opportunity to get hot young girls.
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: So they deal with their fucking hag wives.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: You fuck your hag wife. And so nothing was proven.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And even if whatever was proven, I think everything
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: that he was accused of was just sort of him
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 3: being a little bit of a douchey. creepy dude, which
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 3: most guys are. Most guys are way fucking worse than that,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: to be honest with you. Most guys are fucking pieces
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 3: of shit. So I don't, I never really, you know,
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 3: I think it's kind of funny. I think it's all funny. Like,
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 3: I tease these guys, and I talk about this stuff
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: on my shows, and I think a lot of people
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 3: in L.A. think that, like, Legion of Skanks and me, like, we, like,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: are trying to troll them. It's like, no, dude, it's
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 3: just sort of the elephant in the room. It's a story.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: When Callum gets fucking canceled for something, it's a big
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 3: story in comedy, and to not talk about it, and
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: not talk about it in a funny way.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: And again, that's the story where it's like, 20 years ago. Yeah.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: It, you know, listen, I don't, whatever everyone's experiences and
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: I've talked about it before where I go, is it
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: possible that he had one idea of the night?
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: She had another idea. Sure. Very possible. Very possible.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: And this was not what it's being portrayed as. Uh,
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: and that when we look at those dynamics of people
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: that meet up, maybe they're drinking, they hook up and then,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: You know, 20 years later.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: They're also soulless actors. They're L.A. soulless actors. I mean, well, I...
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: This is my thing with Meghan Markle. She's like, oh,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: they're racist. And I'm like, of course they're racist, but
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: you're an actress. Yeah. So I can't believe... I'm going
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: to believe you.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: I'm choosing between the British reptilian royal family and an L.A.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: Actress. They're the same person. I'm like, you know?
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's... Yeah, you know, a lot of... It's just
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: a silly.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: They got so, it's almost like, I know Pete Davidson
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: pretty well, right?
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 3: And sometimes I'll talk about him on my show. And
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: I feel bad sometimes because I'm like, I really like,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: I've always really liked Pete. Always been a really sweetheart
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: of a guy, right? But he's so famous that it's,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: I'm not talking about the Pete Davidson that I knew
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: from the comedy scene. I'm talking about this celebrity thing
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 3: that's fucking Kim Kardashian and roasting Kanye. It's like, it's
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 3: so much bigger than, and I would feel bad if
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: Pete Davidson ever heard us like talking shit. It's not
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 3: even really talking shit. It's just sort of poking fun
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 3: and making fun of the whole situation. He might come
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 3: to me one day and be like, hey dude, why
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 3: would you say that? That like hurt my feelings. And
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 3: I was like, dude, you don't have feelings anymore. You're famous.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: You're a billionaire.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: You just got to release yourself.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: And also, I don't really feel bad for people that
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: are fucking millionaires that get made fun of online. I
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: don't feel bad for you.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: That's your fucking biggest problem? I feel bad for people
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: that don't have- Is that people on Reddit are saying
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: mean words? Are you out of your fucking mind?
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: You're a millionaire. Right.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 3: And you care about what somebody on Reddit says.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: There are people that cannot eat. There are people that
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: don't have the money to pay their rent, that cannot
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: get their kids insulin.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: Mike Feeney. Right. Now, so those people, my audience. Jeremiah Watkins.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 2: We know them. Jeremiah Watkins is doing the star maps
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: in L.A. Trying to show people houses. He's flipping signs.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: He's flipping signs. He's just trying to show people houses.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: He's selling fruit with Mexicans right now on the freeway.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Watkins is trying to sell bottles of water on
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: the 405.
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: So the reality is it's, you know, those are the
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 2: people you go. It's, you know, people can say whatever
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: they want. It's just kind of like I learned a
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: long time ago. I have a very thick skin.
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 3: I get trolled. I got trolled by the Opie and
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: Anthony subreddit years ago. to the point where I was posting,
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 3: I was going back at them, and it was like,
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 3: they went, I mean, it was like they made their
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: own subreddits that were dedicated to me. And it just
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 3: literally gave me a thick skin to it. If there's
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 3: nothing that anybody could say, there's no, here's what's happening.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 3: This is the physical action. A stranger somewhere in the
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 3: world is going like this. Whether they're good words or
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 3: bad words, the physical action, actually what it is.
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: My name, Tim Dillon, is the same name as a
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: guy who works at Marvel. And literally in his Twitter handle,
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: he says, not the comedian.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 2: Because all day, every day, people just tweet at this
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: guy and go, you're fat, you're gay. I hope you
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: get AIDS. I hope you get AIDS and die. You're
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: a fascist. You're a piece of shit. You sat next
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: to Alex Jones. You did a podcast with Alex Jones.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: And this guy's like, I don't know what's happening. Yeah, dude,
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: I'm an artist.
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 3: The same thing, there's a guy named John Jones who's
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: not John Jones the fighter, but every time John Jones
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: gets into some more trouble, he gets like 100 messages.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: Same thing, not John Jones the fighter. It's like.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's fucking... It's difficult. It's very difficult.
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 3: You gotta develop a thick skin. You lean into it.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 3: And objectively speaking.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 3: Trolling is funny it's really funny there's a great moment
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: in south park do you remember i don't know how
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 3: much you watch south park.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: Not a ton but i know it's brilliant and i've
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: watched a bunch.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 3: Of it there was a series they did it was
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: a few episodes in a row where they were where
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: the dad became an internet troll yeah it was fucking
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: hilarious dude it's so funny when and he's and he's
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 3: trying to get somebody to understand it whoever it is
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 3: they ask him they're like why are you doing this
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: this is this is so dumb what are you doing
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: why would you do.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: This and he just he he almost loses control he's
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: like because it's funny. Yeah.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: And he just can't like he it's right. People that
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: don't get that. It's like frustrating.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 2: It's frustrating. There's a lot of people out there. You
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: got free time. Yeah. You're bored. It's it's a fun
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: way to fuck with people. Right.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: And you are many of those people maybe are not
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: doing what they want per se. Maybe they're like working
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 1: at a job that's kind of boring and it's not
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: that fulfilling and they go online and they fuck.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: With entertaining as fuck entertaining it's i do it every
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 3: time when i'm on a flight every time i'm on
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: a flight i'm bored for five hours i just sit
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: there and i start just trolling and arguing back and
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: forth with people it's so fun and so silly so
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 3: if you separate yourself from it and realize that it's
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 3: just a stranger saying something that's probably not valid then
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 3: fucking the problem is when it's valid i think it
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 3: starts to affect you And that'll happen sometimes. People will
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: pull on a thread and they get something. You go, oh,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 3: that one actually hurt a little bit.
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, well, I think that's part of it. And
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: I also think part of the problem is there isn't
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 2: an element of people going, here's your house. You know
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 2: what I mean? Here's your address. Here's where you live.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: I've had that.
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but listen, if you have a family, that's a concern.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 3: There was an article that came out that said I
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 3: was a Proud Boy.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: This completely fabricated article.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: Right. Actually, it wasn't fabricated. Yeah. I am a Proud Boy.
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: I'm the leader of the New Jersey chapter. Of the
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 2: Proud Boys, yeah.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: No, what happened was there was a bunch of Proud
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: Boys that were fans of Legion of Skan.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: If people don't know the... Gavin McGinnis started Proud Boys
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: while he was on Anthony Cumia's network. Now my podcast
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 3: was also on Anthony Cumia's network at the same time.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 3: So it was just a ton of crossover. And they
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 3: started this group as like a fucking gag. At first
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 3: it was just like they were just trying to be,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: and then it turned into something super politicized and super,
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 3: like they were going out to be counter pro. If
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 3: you're a fucking funny group but you're counter protesting, you
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 3: gotta look in the mirror.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 2: You're not a funny group, dude.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 3: It's not about serial, it's not about punching each other
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: in the arm. If you're counter protesting in fucking riot gear,
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 3: then it's something different than that. I'm not even necessarily
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: demonizing that.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: No. Go fucking. You want to go fight in a
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: Portland park? Have fun. Have at it, idiots. Have a
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: fun Sunday.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 3: You guys can beat the shit out of each other
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: with bike locks.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 2: For all I give a shit about. It's a fun,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: nice weekend.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: I enjoy watching it online, right? So there was a
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: bunch of Proud Boys, though, that were fans of Legion
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 3: of Skanks, and they were fans of us, and they
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 3: had a blog, like some Proud Boy newsletter, right? And
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: after I fought at Ellis Mania, they named me proud
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: boy of the month, right? So they go proud boy
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 3: of the month. The context is they were just naming,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: they were, you know.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: Naming whoever.
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: Whoever, right? They would have said it was The Rock.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: Had The Rock, you know, done something that, you know,
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: they were a fan of his. So that came out
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: and I hit them up. I was like, dude, what
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 3: the fuck are you doing? I was like, if you're
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 3: a fan of mine, you would understand why this would be.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 3: And I've never, I'm not shitting on the proud boys.
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 3: I'm not shitting on what they do. But let's get real, dude.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 3: It's a fucking scarlet letter.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 2: You're involving you, and you have nothing to do with it.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: You want to wear that scarlet letter, wear that scarlet
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 3: letter all fucking day long, dude. And I'm not going
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: to kick you out of my show for wearing a
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: Proud Boys hat.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: I don't give a shit, dude. I don't even know
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 2: what that even is. The same way I.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't kick somebody out for wearing a fucking Antifa fucking helmet.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 2: If you pay the money, I don't kick anyone out.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: I don't give a shit, dude. Unless you start yelling.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 2: If you start yelling shit, then it's over, right? Yeah.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: So I hit the guy up. I was like, dude,
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 2: you got to take that down. That's crazy.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: But the internet is forever, and that's... you know, people,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 3: you know, they use, I guess some sort of like
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: way back machine or whatever. And they found this article specifically.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: And then they, you know, they wrote a whole thing
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: about how I'm a proud boy. They said this tattoo
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: on my arm was, uh, because I'm a fourth degree
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: proud boy.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's just bad.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 3: It's number four. It's just a shitty tattoo. No, it's
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 3: a good tattoo. It's actually, it represents chaos theory. It's
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: a double pendulum. It's not even a number four. It's
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: a double pendulum, which makes this design, which represents chaos theory.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: Did your mom get that for you?
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: No, it's, uh, No, I got, I mean, you know, no,
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: I got this for my son. I got this for
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 3: my career. I got it for everything. We could be
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 3: anywhere right now, Tim. The infinite amount of decisions that
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: we could have made in our lives.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Literally, dude. It's crazy.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 3: The fact that me and you are sitting here across
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: from each other is an actual, it's so unlikely, the
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: fact that Ben's here, the fact that these lights are here,
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 3: it's so unlikely that it's a small fucking miracle, right?
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 3: And that's what this tattoo represents. Yeah.
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 2: Not fucking... A fourth degree Proud Boy, which is, you know, dumb.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: And so, and people just started, uh, people, some guy
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: wrote an article. Yeah.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 3: They share it. And then they were like, you know,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: Proud Boy lives in this town in New Jersey. Um,
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 3: actually had the town wrong, which is funny. Cause I
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: have a generic name. I think they found a different
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 3: Louis Gomez.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 3: Um, but it was still like, I was like, and then, uh,
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: you know, I won't even say his name, but one
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: of the, you know, one of the comics that sort
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: of trolls me online back in New York.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 3: Um, He started posting about it. And he started retweeting
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: the article. And that's why I really started having a
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: fucking big problem with this kid. Because, like, no, I
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: do have a family. I do have a house. Your intent.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: That's when it goes too far.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 3: Your fucking intent is to put my address out there. Yes.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: So maybe somebody will see me and come up to
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 3: me and my family. What do you think is going
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: to fucking happen there?
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: What the fuck do you think is going to happen
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 3: if somebody comes up to me and my fucking family?
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 3: That's a crazy thing to do. Especially, and this is
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: my problem with that kid specifically, he knew I wasn't
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: a problem. He knew what was going on. Like, he
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: was completely aware. And that's where I go, that's a
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: fucking irresponsibility.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 2: Just be real. That's when it goes too far. Yeah.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 2: That's when it's too far. Yeah.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: And I'm not fucking, I would never give out somebody's address.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 3: I would never, I know we make jokes about doxing people. No,
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: I don't really want people to do that shit. But
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 3: it's fucking hot in the kitchen, dude.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 2: It really is.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 3: And in a weird way, after Trump left, now it's
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: cooled down a little bit because I feel like the
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 3: people on the left, they don't feel like they have
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: to fight so hard.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 2: They got a little bit of a W.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: Comedy is sort of lower on the rung of priorities.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, as it should be. As it should be. Yeah.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: But if Trump runs again, it's going to get hot
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 3: in the kitchen again.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 2: It's going to get hot in the kitchen. It may
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 2: get so hot where it's like it's– it's scalding.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 3: And I don't give a fuck about politics.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: None of us do. We all have ideas and values
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: and things, but then we also realize our job, and
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: this is the problem, is you can have fans that
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: believe everything.
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 1: I have fans that believe Trump's Hitler. I have fans
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: that believe Trump's the greatest president that's ever lived. It's
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: not my business. I don't really care what my fans believe.
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: I care that I'm doing my job. I care what
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: I believe. I don't give a shit what the people
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: in the audience believe. How would I even know?
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: It's inconsequential for me and my game that I'm playing,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 3: who the president is. Whoever the president is, and this
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 3: is what we said before about gas prices, it's inconsequential.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: I'm focused on those things. Everything from gas prices to
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: who the president is to all this shit that I truly,
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 3: really can't control. I know that you can.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 3: I'm hyper-focused on playing my game and sort of moving
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: forward And those are variables that have very little effect
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: on whether or not I'm moving forward.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah. Luis Gomez, where can the people find you?
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 2: Where can they, where can the people support what you're doing?
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: Is Skank Fest completely sold out?
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: Skank Fest is completely sold out.
