1:06
pope name you know oh yeah it's
1:08
like it's like a king or something
1:11

That is upsetting that even if he

gets it, but you know, still those
1:25
of us who know will know, you
1:27
know, and that that's something. We'll
1:29
still know that the guy's name was Pete
1:31
Zabala. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Trey
1:35
is right. We need to just
1:37
talk about like bro shit
1:39
and just be like, yeah, I was going to
1:41
say everybody. How about aliens?
1:43
They were real. You can be the
1:46
left Joe Rogan. No, no, I don't want to. I don't
1:48
want any of that. That's
1:50
scary as fuck. Do
1:55
you have any questions for us?
1:57
So many. Yeah, I've been
2:00
brewing with him my entire life. In fact, you know,
2:02
I don't know how much time you got. I think
2:04
I'd start with, why did you kill my dad? But,
2:06
you know, we don't know. Oh, yeah.
2:09
I wasn't with that. That was
2:11
me. Are you sure? Well, I mean,
2:13
yeah, I mean, I've just always assumed it was God.
2:15
I mean, it was cancer, and that is a true
2:17
purview, isn't it? And a God thing. Or
2:19
is that the devil? Did the devil do that? Yeah,
2:22
let's believe Satan for that one. OK.
2:25
Yeah. Dastardly Satan. No, I'm just
2:27
I'm just kidding around. I mean, yeah, you
2:29
know, it's sort of not. Sure. I
2:31
mean, you know, awkward,
2:34
awkward. Yeah, I
2:38
mean, you nailed me to the wall
2:40
just then. I'm sorry. Yeah, we
2:42
were just talking about how the Pope just
2:44
died. Your boy. Yeah. That was
2:46
a good move on your part, too. I
2:48
thought, uh, taking him on Easter, um,
2:51
kind of poetic. Yeah. Isn't that kind of
2:53
fun? I was right after JD Vance
2:55
met him too. It was perfect. Yes. Yes.
2:57
Which I doubt that's a coincidence. Probably
2:59
not. Oh, no. spent just a few, a
3:01
few choice minutes with him and was
3:03
like, I'm ready to get that. He didn't,
3:05
he didn't meet him at all. In
3:07
fact, that was the funny thing. No, they
3:10
met. Yeah, so
3:12
see I heard that too, but then
3:14
I saw a picture to be a
3:16
picture of JD standing like right in
3:18
front of the actual Pope, but I
3:20
heard that he I think JD was
3:22
over there for a couple days and
3:24
at first He refused to meet him
3:26
and the thing I saw said it.
3:29
He sent an envoy, you know
3:31
some sort of archbishop or cardinal or
3:33
some such to Admonish JD Vance for
3:35
you know not being down with compassion
3:37
and empathy for being a douche. Yeah,
3:39
I don't know how much of that
3:41
is true. But that's I read that.
3:43
And, you know, I read it on
3:45
the internet, didn't fact check it, which
3:47
is how I live my life. It's
3:49
appropriate for the I'm sure you I'm
3:51
sure you read the good sources, though.
3:54
Well, I don't know. You know, I
3:57
really haven't. I saw that story
3:59
pop up two different times on
4:01
Reddit. So that seems pretty. Oh, he's
4:03
very reliable. He's a Reddit guy.
4:05
Yeah. Yeah. I'm a lurker just
4:07
so people know I don't I don't
4:10
I'm not in the comments. I
4:12
don't actively participate. Me too. But
4:14
I also but I also love the reddit. Yeah.
4:17
No, I've been I've been
4:19
around. I've been lurking in the
4:21
those depths of the internet
4:23
for I don't even know 10
4:25
plus years or something like
4:27
that. Well, the internet is very
4:29
much in agreement that JD Vance is responsible
4:31
for the death of the Pope. And I
4:33
think we should all lean into that. I
4:35
didn't even know that this had happened. Yeah.
4:38
Until I jumped into this live and Jesus
4:40
was all sad. And I'm like, what are you
4:42
sad about? And he's like, are you kidding? Somebody
4:45
said on threads, I don't know if JD
4:47
Vance killed the Pope, but I think we should
4:49
deport him to El Salvador just in case.
4:51
I mean, the timing is very, very, I mean,
4:54
he was there with the Pope. He
4:56
met the Pope on 420. On Easter? Yeah.
4:59
Mm -hmm. For like six, seven minutes.
5:01
There's a quick little meeting. Just for the
5:03
photo op. I mean, that's all it would
5:05
take. I mean, if you're at Death's door
5:07
already, and then JD Vance
5:09
shows up, he's just the guy
5:12
that ushers you to the grave. Yeah,
5:14
off the mortal coil, into the
5:16
abyss forever. I
5:19
am curious about, because I thought
5:21
I've been a godless haven my
5:23
whole life, really. Really,
5:27
I kind of grew up a religious
5:29
is what I is what I say
5:31
meaning like I'm not like fervently anti
5:33
like I know there's a lot of
5:35
people I've known a lot of atheists
5:37
and stuff in my time and I
5:39
found that a lot of them tend
5:42
to be Not universally, but a lot
5:44
of them have been like Traumatized by
5:46
you guys you guys being God and
5:48
Jesus and just Hey, wait a minute.
5:50
Wait a minute by the church. Yeah,
5:52
there we go And so they're pretty
5:54
militant And I just kind of just
5:57
grew up out mostly outside of all
5:59
of I went to church a little
6:01
bit when I was a younger kid,
6:03
but not even that much. And by
6:05
the time I was like 10 years
6:07
old, even I just wasn't going anymore.
6:09
So that's basically where I've been on
6:12
the whole time. I'm totally cool with
6:14
this. And Jesus has a look on
6:16
his face. Like he is disappointed. I'm
6:18
bracing. I'm bracing for where
6:21
the story is going. But I'm
6:23
trying. So that's, I'm not
6:25
militantly anti -religious, but that's, but I'm
6:27
not, you know, not super
6:29
churchy either. And like a lot
6:31
of people who would put themselves on
6:33
the left, this pope who just
6:35
died seemed pretty cool to me. You
6:38
know, the overall, you
6:40
know, overall, as far as
6:42
popes go, and I'm
6:44
certainly better than the last one. Right. Well,
6:46
and I'm just wondering if they're gonna
6:48
like course correct as it were. He seemed
6:50
to be among the more Christ -like popes
6:52
that I can remember. So I figure
6:54
they probably are gonna have to nip that
6:56
in the bud. Now that he has
6:59
died, they can get another fire and brimstone
7:01
lunatic in there. But I don't know
7:03
what they're gonna do. I'm not privy to
7:05
the inner workings of the Catholic Church.
7:07
No, I was just sort of worrying about
7:09
that myself. I was kind of one
7:11
of the first things I thought about when
7:13
Jesus told me. The next one again
7:15
is going to be some crazy, crazy
7:18
hard right guy, right? Because
7:20
there's always those those forces
7:22
behind the scenes. But
7:24
we'll see. We don't know. One
7:27
of them. uh at least i don't
7:29
know how i don't know how
7:31
right or left wing he is generally
7:33
all i know about him is
7:35
that his name is pizza ball uh
7:37
so uh that's fun huh among
7:39
the most okay spaghetti spaghetti five names
7:42
i've ever heard in my life
7:44
uh wait what is that his last
7:46
name pier but pier but he's
7:48
the pizza ball uh this is me
7:50
it's spelled like It the dish
7:52
like Pete P. I. Z. Z. A.
7:55
B. A. L. L. A. Pizza ball. All
7:58
right. He's one that
8:00
I am endorsing. Yeah. No,
8:02
me too. Automatically. Yes. Jesus,
8:05
Jesus, three for three. Three. Yeah,
8:07
I'll I'll jump in. All
8:09
right. Well, Trey, first of
8:12
all, welcome to the God pod. I've
8:14
been the biggest fan
8:16
since oh, man, since
8:18
forever. You started, you know, getting big. We
8:21
had your friend Corey Ryan
8:23
Forrester on the podcast a couple
8:25
times, circa 2020. He's
8:27
also badass, funny as hell kind
8:29
of guy. And we're just pleased
8:31
to punch that you're here with
8:33
us today. Yeah. And you,
8:35
you have a second special that was
8:37
released recently, right? Trash Daddy. That's
8:39
right. Jesus. Trash Daddy. It's out
8:41
on YouTube right now. So, you know, you
8:44
look it up and check it out. Yeah.
8:46
And then there's another, there's an old one
8:48
on there too from a few years ago,
8:50
a few years ago called Damn Boy. So
8:52
two total. And then I've got my
8:54
podcast and stuff that I do as
8:57
well. But, you know, just, what's that called?
8:59
Well, there's a couple that putting on
9:01
you mentioned Corey me and Corey have a
9:03
podcast together called putting on airs where
9:05
we talk about like fancy shit. So
9:08
like this week, we will
9:10
definitely be talking about Pope stuff
9:12
because, you know, because the
9:14
Pope is very fancy, very
9:17
good shoes, very opulent
9:19
or Nate surroundings. And
9:21
he's got that little
9:23
that little Dust
9:25
ball scepter thing. Oh,
9:27
yeah. Bless people. Yeah. Yeah.
9:30
Yeah, which I don't know what's in there, but,
9:33
uh, you know, drugs special.
9:35
So kind of pretty sure. I'm pretty sure
9:37
pizza ball doesn't stand a chance now that
9:39
I think about it because of his name.
9:42
You think it's too cool. What the thing
9:44
is, you know, I mean, obviously, as
9:46
you know, they'll just they'll give him a
9:48
pope name. You know, oh yeah, it's
9:50
like a king or something like you. Oh,
9:52
you get a new name. Yeah. Even
9:54
if you get pizza ball. It's not going
9:56
to be Pope pizza ball. They're going
9:58
to change it. No matter what. Which is
10:00
some bully or some shit. Yes. And
10:02
that is that is upsetting that even if
10:04
he gets it. But, you know, still
10:06
those of us who know will know, you
10:08
know, that that's something that we still
10:10
know that the guys know you you know,
10:13
right, right. I don't know how they pick the pope
10:15
names, but that's definitely a thing that they they
10:17
do. I think maybe the new pope gets to pick
10:19
their own pope name. It's like he picks his
10:21
own name. He picks his own name after he gets
10:23
elected. Yeah, I'm checking in with chat now. How's
10:26
it going, chat? Welcome
10:28
in. How cool is it? God
10:30
and Jesus here talking to Trey
10:32
Crowder on Substack Live. And
10:35
yeah, it's just crazy. I
10:37
knew that we would be
10:39
talking to you. the day
10:41
after Easter 420, you know,
10:43
where Jesus smoked a bunch
10:45
of blunts with the Easter
10:47
Bunny. I didn't know it
10:49
would also involve the fact
10:51
that the Pope took a
10:53
massive bong rip with JD
10:55
Vance and died. Allegedly.
10:57
Who could have foreseen? I
11:00
mean, again, some would say
11:02
you could have. But me,
11:04
yes, I couldn't have possibly
11:06
seen that coming. But yeah.
11:10
Yeah, why the Pope be able
11:12
to pick his own name? You know what I mean? Stripper
11:14
picked their own stripper name. We'll
11:17
be right back after these messages.

12:51
how was your Easter? How was your
12:53
420? I'm gonna be completely honest
12:55
with you guys. Neither of those holidays
12:57
means overly much to me for
13:00
very different reasons. I already mentioned up
13:02
top about my relationship
13:04
with the church or the lack
13:06
thereof. I have two sons.
13:08
They are 12 and 13. When
13:10
they were younger, like,
13:13
which is to say young enough to
13:15
be dumb enough to believe that a
13:17
giant anthropomorphic rabbit was hiding colorful eggs
13:19
in their yard for some reason. And
13:21
they were so happy, right? We used to
13:23
do that. But I mean, that ended years
13:25
ago. What age did that
13:27
end at? I mean, I
13:30
don't know. Like I said, they're 12
13:32
and 32. I'd say eight or nine.
13:34
Eight. Oh, that's sad. But
13:37
then
13:40
420, that... I'm
13:42
not super into anymore
13:44
because the older I've gotten,
13:46
the more assured it
13:48
has become for me that
13:51
if I partake in
13:53
any marijuana intake whatsoever, I
13:55
will shortly be, as I term
13:57
it, communing with the void. I
14:00
exclusively lose my mind
14:03
when I smoke weed
14:05
anymore. I end
14:07
up in the fetal position questioning every
14:09
decision that I've ever made and remembering. agonizing
14:12
things from middle school. And
14:14
it's never just like, when I first
14:16
started smoking weed when I was, you know,
14:18
teenager. And it was
14:20
like, part of it I blame on
14:22
these weed scientists and they're out of control.
14:26
too strong now. Yeah, way too strong. Because
14:28
like when I first started, you know,
14:30
20 years ago as a teenager, it was
14:32
like, yeah. weird. Yeah, it
14:34
was, yeah, just. I think the
14:36
first weed ever smoked literally came
14:38
out of a massive garbage bag
14:40
that a buddy of mine found
14:42
in a field. A
14:44
garbage bag of weed in a
14:46
field. come you can't get that
14:48
at a dispensary? Where are the
14:50
coke cans with a little, you
14:52
know, turn into a pipe for
14:54
you? Hauling out apples and stuff.
14:56
But back then, you know, I
14:59
would smoke some weed and like...
15:01
put on headphones and listen, listen to
15:03
like slash solos and, you know,
15:05
would almost, would almost have a seizure
15:08
from, but from rocking out too
15:10
hard, you know, feel like I would
15:12
feel like I was going to
15:14
lose control with how awesome everything was.
15:16
Or watch November rain, watch November
15:18
rain. Sure. Watch, you know, Quentin Tarantino
15:20
movies or Darren Aronofsky, you know,
15:23
movies, just or whatever, just sit around
15:25
with your buddies, making fart jokes,
15:27
anything. was just better on
15:29
weed, which is a stereotype about
15:31
it. But as I got older
15:33
and we got stronger, both things
15:35
happen. But that just that just
15:37
went away for me. So I
15:39
can't. Good for you. I'm a
15:41
big supporter of it philosophically. Like,
15:43
of course, I think it should
15:46
be legal and all that, but
15:48
it's just not for me personally.
15:50
That's I agree with you, Trey.
15:52
What does it say on that
15:55
poster behind you? What is that?
15:57
says from Dixie with love. That
15:59
was the name of a comedy
16:01
tour that I There's Corey right
16:03
there, Corey Grime Forster. So it
16:05
was a tracrider Corey Grime Forster.
16:07
And then the third member of
16:09
our little well read clan, Drew
16:11
Morgan. This is right from a,
16:13
we used to all three tour
16:15
together. It called the well read
16:17
comedy tour. And this was an
16:19
iteration of that. And it's just
16:21
my favorite. poster. Yeah,
16:23
I just like it looks badass. And also
16:25
it says from Dixie with love. So it's
16:27
like on brain. It kind of makes sense.
16:29
So that's why I was the comedy world
16:31
these days and stand up comedy. People are
16:33
going out and enjoying that or weird. Well,
16:36
I mean, in
16:39
a macro sense, it's weird for
16:41
me for a lot of reasons.
16:43
But like, as far as
16:45
like my tour and my shows and my fans
16:47
and all that, it's all lovely.
16:49
It's fun. You know, I just did. 10
16:52
shows in five days in Oregon
16:54
last week Eugene and Portland And
16:56
they were all packed and everybody
16:58
was great and it was a
17:00
lot of fun and people are
17:03
still laughing and it's like and
17:05
I've got a bunch of like,
17:07
you know Lefty fans, but they're
17:09
not like too existentially terrified to
17:11
laugh not yet anyway, so So
17:13
that all is going okay, but
17:15
in a macro sense, it's like
17:17
it's really weird this whole like
17:19
Right word shift of the stand
17:21
-up comedy. Well, I just saw
17:23
and I gotta say I gotta
17:25
be honest the first time I
17:28
ever saw you it was on
17:30
of course the Bill Mara show
17:32
right on HBO like circa Was
17:34
that 2005? I don't know now
17:36
now now 2016 2016 it was
17:38
only oh damn My brain anyway,
17:40
I saw you there. I was
17:42
like who is this guy? Right.
17:44
He is the best guest Bill
17:46
Maher has ever had. And of
17:48
course, I've stopped watching Bill Maher
17:50
long. I don't know. stopped having
17:52
me on there, too. Yeah. And
17:55
he's on Substack now and he
17:57
posted or whatever. He's got his
17:59
podcast. He just
18:01
interviewed Charlie Kirk. Right.
18:04
And is like, yeah. And he's talking about
18:06
how he met Trump and that he doesn't
18:08
hate him and the blah, blah, blah. It's
18:10
like, yeah, you if you meet anybody in
18:13
person, you can be like, huh. They're
18:15
a human being. Oh, no, they seem kind of
18:17
nice. No big deal. Yeah. But I mean, are
18:19
you just you're just going to throw out everything
18:21
that they do? OK. Yeah. Yeah,
18:23
I don't get. I mean, I don't
18:25
know. On the one hand, I'm like, it
18:28
makes all the sense in the
18:30
world that Bill Maher has done that
18:32
because, again, the rap, it's become
18:34
a very lucrative path to take in
18:36
the comedy world. And anybody can
18:38
see that. There's been plenty, plenty of
18:40
other comedians who have, like, very
18:42
overgone, attempted to, well, yeah. That
18:45
some of them to great success,
18:47
but I'm saying there's been plenty
18:49
that have like attempted it and
18:51
can't really pull it off or
18:53
haven't been able to like really
18:55
capture that but that's sad tried
18:58
you sold out and it still
19:00
didn't work, but But but with
19:02
bill more though at the same
19:04
time. It's like he's had a
19:06
popular show on TV on two
19:08
different networks Yeah, just still base
19:10
basically the same show for 30
19:13
plus years 32 33 years. It's
19:15
like He doesn't need, he's very
19:17
famous. very rich. He
19:19
millions upon millions. So that
19:21
makes me kind of have
19:23
no other choice, but to
19:25
assume he is like legit
19:27
about this philosophical shift of
19:30
his or whatever that's happening.
19:33
But I don't, you
19:35
know, to me, it's wild. But yeah,
19:37
I think the only reason he's had a
19:39
show this long is because like the
19:41
execs love him or something. Because
19:43
does he really get, I
19:45
guess he gets good ratings. I
19:47
think it does. That David
19:49
Zas love guy from HBO or
19:51
whatever it's called. He's really
19:53
big Trump supporter too, right? Right.
19:56
But he, you know, for a long time,
19:58
Bill Maher was like, not, I
20:00
mean, I watched that show for years way before I was
20:02
ever on it. I watched it and it was like, very
20:04
good. Right. And it's,
20:06
but I think he, I think he
20:08
would say, I'm sure his position on
20:10
it would be that. I mean, I
20:12
shouldn't put words in his mouth. I'm
20:14
still going to him. I didn't come
20:16
here to tell you. Sure. He would
20:18
say that he that, you know, he
20:21
hasn't changed at all. It's that the
20:23
leftist change around him is probably what
20:25
he would say. But I don't see
20:27
how that how that amounts to talking
20:29
to fucking Charlie Kirk and people like
20:31
that, you know. Oh, yeah. They
20:34
still his panels are still
20:36
pretty good. He gets good.
20:39
You still watch Jesus. I I do.
20:41
I don't agree with them all the
20:43
time, including, of course, with going to
20:45
be Trump. By the way, just
20:47
this morning, Larry David
20:49
posted... a guest essay in
20:51
the New York Times
20:53
titled My Dinner with Adolf.
20:56
Oh, really? He's talking about how
20:58
he met Adolf Hitler and came
21:00
to like him, which it was
21:02
clearly a Saturday or more. Nice.
21:05
I heard David. He's
21:07
legit, obviously. I'll have to read
21:09
that. I did not know that it happened. Yeah, just this
21:11
morning. Thank you, Jesus. My dinner with
21:13
Adolf. You know, wow, the state
21:15
of comedy. I didn't invite you
21:17
here, obviously, to just talk shit about
21:19
Bill Maher or whatever. But it is
21:21
it is really great to get your
21:24
take on it because it is current.
21:26
And, you know, it's it's sad. It's
21:28
sad that there are people who are all
21:30
bending the knee. Man, their knees
21:32
are so bendy. Mm hmm.
21:34
Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. It's
21:37
like I said, but not you, though. No,
21:39
I just I couldn't. I
21:41
don't know. I mean,
21:44
He's a real one Jesus. This is
21:46
why we bless you. This is why
21:48
you're here not even trying to like
21:50
jerk myself off about it. I just
21:52
make that sincerely I could not Stomach
21:54
doing something I know I know also
21:56
also like I also genuinely believe that
21:58
even if I did make the choice
22:00
to back, you know what? Fuck it.
22:03
I'm gonna do a heel turn and
22:05
try to catch in on this like
22:07
right winged grift or whatever. Which you
22:09
never even if I did make that
22:11
decision like I don't think that I
22:13
could I Don't think it would work
22:15
because it would be I'd be faking
22:17
that like I'm not faking anything that
22:19
I'm doing now And I think that
22:21
people would see that would yeah, I
22:23
am now as authentic that would not
22:25
be authentic And so I don't think
22:27
it would work anyways like you said
22:29
earlier. It's very that's very set again
22:31
I would I would never even try
22:33
but there's nothing sadder then making
22:35
that decision trying and having that not work and
22:37
then you failed that too and it's like
22:39
so there's just it's just not on the car
22:41
but you could never because it's not in
22:43
your heart and then what's sad is that there's
22:45
a price to be paid for telling the
22:47
truth isn't there i'm in the i mean in
22:49
the comedy world i don't know i should
22:52
they may not have anything to do with that
22:54
they're just i have you know the cut
22:56
the way to talk about it it's okay no
22:58
it's all right i don't mind talking about
23:00
it it's just again it's just we i just
23:02
never saw it coming the way that like
23:04
Because my whole life growing up, people
23:06
used to ask the question all
23:09
the time. They'd be like, are
23:11
there any funny, are there any
23:13
conservative comedians? People used to ask
23:15
that. Literally, are there any?
23:17
And it'd be like, well, I guess post
23:19
9 -11, Dennis Miller maybe, and there's like one
23:21
or two others. We'll be right

your shot at And
25:30
then there's that other real
25:32
true Southern comedian who is
25:34
always like, you know, get
25:36
it done. He's he's
25:38
from the South, right? Isn't he? He's
25:40
not going to the school. Dan
25:43
Whitney is, I think, from Nebraska originally
25:45
and does not talk like that.
25:47
But but he. Well,
25:49
he got huge. He
25:51
didn't do politics stuff. He did
25:53
like Hillbilly Blackface or whatever. But
25:56
like, yeah. And he,
25:58
he pandered in that way, but
26:00
he didn't, uh, it wasn't like
26:02
political though. And so there were
26:04
no really like this through. There
26:06
were no really like prominent, uh,
26:08
you know, politically conservative comedians
26:11
for a very long time.
26:13
And then now like objectively
26:15
the biggest ones in the
26:17
world, the biggest comedians that
26:19
there are. are
26:21
aligned with, you know, with the
26:23
right politically. And I just,
26:25
I'm a huge comedy nerd. Dave
26:28
Chappelle, right? Would be Juan Jo Rogan
26:30
and Dave Chappelle. See, that's what the
26:32
world thinks. And for me, it's like
26:34
number one is like Trey Crowder and
26:36
Bill Burr. Well, Bill
26:38
Burr is, I am not. Putting
26:41
politics aside, I'm nowhere near the level
26:43
of those guys at this point. But
26:45
Bill Burr is and he is he
26:47
is the one. He's like a bulwark
26:49
out there. Put, you know, pushing,
26:52
pushing back against it, which
26:54
I very much, very much appreciate.
26:56
Yeah. But, uh, yeah,
26:58
I was a comedy nerd my
27:00
whole life. And like, I, you
27:02
know, before I even started doing
27:04
it and I just, I never
27:06
ever would have anticipated this happening.
27:09
I do think that. You know
27:11
like everything does in this country.
27:13
I think eventually it'll swing back
27:15
the other direction Yeah, well, mean
27:17
I mean with comedy specifically like
27:19
because I think that you know
27:21
when I was a kid a
27:23
kid like a young adult like
27:25
a teenager and a young adult the
27:28
coolest shit in the world was like
27:30
the Daily Show and the Colbert Report
27:32
like people were smoking weed and watching
27:34
that in dorm rooms and stuff. But
27:38
now, you know,
27:40
there's all this talk about like young men
27:42
and shit like that. Now,
27:45
it's all about UFC.
27:47
UFC is the heart of
27:49
darkness. If you're comedian, you
27:51
go to UFC, you bear a hug
27:53
with like Rogan and Trump or whatever,
27:56
and then, you know, And that shit's
27:58
like cool to these guys to got
28:00
20 year old dudes now that's like
28:02
this is like the cool dude, you
28:04
know that uh and and I just
28:06
think that but you know that when
28:08
I was a kid it was the
28:11
George Bush era and all that shit
28:13
and they were pushing back against that
28:15
and I think that we're getting pretty
28:17
hardcore with uh this era in terms
28:19
of fashion fascism and that type of
28:21
thing and I think that um There
28:23
will be a, you know, push
28:26
back against it and turn it like
28:28
culturally or whatever, I think. Just
28:30
because of the contrarian nature of young
28:32
people and shit. And I think,
28:34
yeah, it's just, you
28:36
know, obviously Democrats are terrible
28:38
at messaging and coalescing
28:40
and all that shit. That
28:42
the right, you know, where's the
28:44
Democrats UFC thing that they can bear
28:46
hug around? What would it
28:48
be? I don't know. That's what I'm saying. I
28:51
don't know what it is. it be for Democrats? And
28:53
don't say tennis. Right. You
28:56
know, like, when are
28:58
they going to start like pulling together
29:00
their forces and they just, I don't
29:02
know that they care. is the thing,
29:04
right? It's like, it does need
29:06
to, it seems like it does need to be
29:08
kind of Trojan Horst, like in a way
29:10
where it's like, you need something
29:12
that, that young people can
29:14
like get into. The
29:17
UFC, yeah, I get it. It's
29:19
like, oh, this is bad school. Something
29:21
that they can get into that's
29:23
not explicitly, you know, political in nature.
29:26
Right. But when they go there, the rest
29:28
of the community, the people that are around
29:30
that and the people who watch it and
29:32
everything, it's like, is more, you know.
29:34
It's like new church. Left -leaning or something. It's like
29:36
a community that pushes you in that direction. Because that's
29:38
what it, because like, Joe Rogan, like I was
29:41
a huge fan of Joe Rogan for a very long
29:43
time, too, because like. He
29:45
made his bones as a podcaster
29:47
talking about fucking aliens and Bigfoot
29:49
and monkeys and shit, you know,
29:51
and like, I loved all that at the
29:54
time, like in my twenties and stuff. Again,
29:56
I hadn't given up on weed yet. And
29:58
I just, you know, and I love those
30:00
kind of like pseudo -intellectual bro science conversations. Like,
30:02
I love that shit. And that's like all
30:04
of a sudden they slide in and how
30:06
about fascism up? Exactly. Right. And
30:08
that's what happens. And so I'm saying. If there is
30:10
going to be any kind of, and
30:12
I don't think it can really be a coordinated effort
30:15
either, because I think people will probably see through
30:17
that. But if everybody somebody like left needs a Joe
30:19
Rogan or some kind of equivalent, I
30:21
think it's going to have to be something
30:23
like that where it's like, it's,
30:25
you know, the, the,
30:27
the messaging or the politics
30:29
or whatever is not. That's
30:31
not the main draw like it has
30:34
to be a trojan horse. I get it
30:36
I get to sing Trojan horses in
30:38
there because if you think about it, that's
30:40
really what happened with I mean using
30:42
Joe Rogan as an example but also like
30:44
the UFC again when you have see
30:46
first started getting big I've watched that
30:48
I was in college at the time loved
30:51
it if they hadn't gotten explicitly political
30:53
yet then either but it's like people go
30:55
to that because they're like you
30:57
know, testosterone ridden 22 year old bros and
30:59
they like to watch other dudes be the shit
31:01
out of each other and watch it with
31:03
their buddies and drink beer and yell at
31:06
the TV and that type of shit. But
31:08
then they get into it and everybody's
31:10
associated with it is, you know, on the
31:12
right or far right. And so they just
31:14
get pulled in that direction before they ever
31:16
even really conscientiously think about it. Sometimes, I
31:18
think. And in other times, they're like
31:20
that to begin with. But I don't know.
31:22
I just I think you're right on the
31:24
money. I have sons, you know. At
31:27
a very delicate age, they might start
31:29
to get roped in. And what do you
31:32
do? How do you stop that? You
31:34
just tell them you can,
31:36
right? Right now, we're watching that Netflix show,
31:38
Adolescents. You heard about
31:40
that show? Oh, very good show,
31:42
yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm watching that with
31:44
them, like very pointedly, you
31:46
know, like made the decision to
31:48
make them watch it with me, in
31:50
part because of... whole type of
31:52
thing, because yeah, that's basically what that
31:54
shows about. And the main kid
31:57
in that show is 13 and all
31:59
of a sudden, 13. You know
32:01
what, Trey is right. We need to
32:03
just talk about, like, bro shit
32:05
and just be like, what's up everybody?
32:08
How about aliens? They were real. You can be
32:10
the left Joe Rogan. No, I don't want
32:12
to. I don't want any of that. That's
32:14
scary as fuck. Yeah,
32:16
but you can be the good version. That's not scary.
32:19
Well, but you're not sure about one thing.
32:21
No, I mean, I know what you
32:23
mean sometime I mean he's I've also I've
32:25
always thought that there's a certain level
32:27
of fame and I don't know where you
32:29
draw the line but where I think
32:32
it would be for me personally kind of
32:34
torturous but the way I But the
32:36
way I understand Rogan lives his life though.
32:38
He's got his fucking compound in Texas
32:40
Like oh, yeah, he doesn't leave it except
32:42
to do very specific He'll go to
32:44
his own club or he'll go out to
32:46
a show or whatever and he's surrounded.
32:48
He's got his body guards and shit. He's
32:50
not ever You know, I don't know.
32:52
He's very much curated his own existence to
32:54
hit for him, which sucks. Of
32:56
course he is. I'll just say
32:58
that we're down. We're with you,
33:00
man. You're on your team.
33:03
Well, anything you want to say the
33:05
word. And if you want someone to
33:07
die for you, Jesus. Yeah,
33:09
I just did that the
33:11
other day. I'm good. I'm good
33:13
on dying human shield. Jesus.
33:18
So close to Easter give me
33:20
a few weeks to recover from
33:22
this Easter and all Jesus sacrificed
33:24
every single year I was gonna
33:26
ask how you're a you know
33:29
what Easter is like for you
33:31
these days Jesus. It's a lot.
33:33
It's a lot my holes hurt.
33:35
I mean, I we were live
33:37
streaming Friday and I was hanging
33:39
from the cross the entire broadcast.
33:43
And look, this is what happens.
33:45
God laughs. He laughs at my
33:47
pain and suffering. Jesus, it's been
33:49
long enough. So no, Easter is
33:51
not good to me. I laugh
33:53
for the first 1200 years. No,
33:55
only when the Reformation started did
33:57
I start to laugh. Okay. Yeah,
34:00
I don't get I get the idea of like,
