3:58
get the spider over? You want to be? the
4:00
spider that we saw earlier? Did
4:02
you know a spider has eight
4:04
vaginas? Is that true? That's what
4:06
Iraq did mean. Even the males?
4:08
The males have 12. Vaginas! Vaginas!
4:10
That explains a lot. That's why
4:12
spiders are always, you know, you
4:14
don't have, you're not making up
4:17
for something if you're going around
4:19
scaring people all the time. Let
4:21

4:33

4:36
that down. What were you gonna
4:38
say? I was gonna ask how
4:40
many spider bits you have. You
4:42
got a lot of spider bits?
4:44
Spider jokes? I have one moth
4:46
joke. What do you got moth
4:48
wise? This is so petty. Go.
4:50
But it's the only joke that
4:52
cumel. Shots fired already. Naham Chad.
4:55
Yeah. Well, Camille and I started
4:57
together. Still. And still? Yeah, it
4:59
feels like a shot is being
5:01
aimed. Oh, you mean like I'm
5:03
gonna take him down? Yeah. It's
5:05
time, too. It would be hard
5:07
to take him now. That's what
5:09
I mean. It seems impossible. So
5:11
let's get him. If you're in
5:14
a bar fight with Camille, you're
5:16
grabbing something. Yes. You know what
5:18
I mean? Yeah. His cheat meal.
5:20
His cheat meal. and throwing it
5:22
at that's the only way to
5:24
stop him is to throw a
5:26
donut at him be like it's
5:28
your day off and then throw
5:30
it across yeah so he runs
5:33
after yes and then he goes
5:35
yeah and I do his voice
5:37
anymore it's different I don't mean
5:39
how close are you feels like
5:41
shots fired no for a very
5:43
long time I would have fearlessly
5:45
done kumel's I that's now I
5:47
don't think he can't think he
5:49
can't Alame's performance will age poorly.
5:52
Because he's doing Dylan. Yeah, you
5:54
can't do Dylan voice. Yeah, you
5:56
can't do Dylan voice anymore. I'm
5:58
sorry. Like someone will be like,
6:00
did you hear Pete Holmes back
6:02
in the, hey, come in. It's
6:04
like, that is so. Yeah. Yeah.
6:06
I think you're on to something.
6:08
I don't think future they're gonna
6:11
say. I'm sorry, were you pretending
6:13
to be Bob Dylan? Everyone was
6:15
doing a Dylan back then. You'd
6:17
go to a club and you'd
6:19
walk in. It was a different
6:21
time. People wanted it. Yeah. People
6:23
wanted it. Hey! Who's going on?
6:25
Hey! Do you think he's ever...
6:28
Like, because how he really talks,
6:30
old Dylan, he'll be like, I
6:32
don't know why, people, people out
6:34
here saying, and I talk about,
6:36
hey, yeah, is he ever done
6:38
that? I think he's done that,
6:40
and I think he probably doesn't
6:42
care for it. I don't think
6:44
he likes it. I don't think
6:47
why would he? He was like,
6:49
especially because he was like being,
6:51
well, being him. Also when if
6:53
Chalame taught us anything is that
6:55
Bobby D didn't really sing like
6:57
that. No, sometimes he would. How
6:59
does it feel like then he'd
7:01
get into it? It's very similar
7:03
to how when you hear British
7:06
or English people sing, like, and
7:08
then you hear him interviewed and
7:10
you're like, what? It's like the
7:12
first time you heard Christian Bale.
7:14
Yeah. Talk. And you're like, what?
7:16
What? They're from Arizona. Because we're
7:18
singing our words now. Yes. To
7:20
their ear. Yes. This is music
7:22
to them. Yes. Yes. To them
7:25
they go. The Queen would be
7:27
like, well, put a beat to
7:29
that. Even God save the Queen.
7:31
God save it. Not very much
7:33
accent in that. God save the
7:35
Queen. What is the British? What
7:37
is the British sentence? Oh dear.
7:39
That has the least British accent.
7:41
Because there's always a couple. Like
7:44
in Irish you get in trouble
7:46
where you're like, oh, let's go
7:48
down to the fucking pub, right?
7:50
Yeah. And then it starts getting
7:52
Scottish. And then we'll go in
7:54
our truck and before you do
7:56
it, you're going to a kind
7:58
of Scottish. But then the problem
8:00
is, there are things in the
8:03
Irish accent you say that just
8:05
sound exactly like us. So you
8:07
as a bisexual. Yeah. What is
8:09
the phrase? That sounds exactly the
8:11
same in English. And buddy, if
8:13
you can't think of it, we're
8:15
asking JetGPT. We're gonna ask. It's
8:17
probably worth asking and letting me
8:19
compare anyway. Oh! Because I need
8:22
a second to think of what.
8:24
It's probably like, all right, you,
8:26
you, you, you, you, no, you
8:28
is pretty good. It's tough. You,
8:30
he. Especially where I found the
8:32
subject. Yeah. Can we get a
8:34
suggestion? Hank, Ed. Ed. See, I
8:36
was gonna say. It's tough. I
8:38
would say. Phil. Phil, Phil, Phil,
8:41
found, Phil, found, Phil, found, Phil,
8:43
found, Phil, found, Phil found, some
8:45
felons, no, no, Phil, found, Betty,
8:47
Betty, no, Phil, Betty, no, already,
8:49
Phil, Phil, found, Phil, Phil, found,
8:51
Trebo, Trebo, how about a storm's
8:53
coming, it's tough. Yeah, yeah, it's
8:55
gotta be, you're on the money,
8:57
we can't even have a subject,
9:00
it's gotta be like a subject,
9:02
it's gotta be like... Time's up.
9:04
Yeah, it's gotta be quick. Yeah.
9:06
Stop sign. Yeah, it's gotta be
9:08
that real fast. Gosh! One light,
9:10
it's as to just be exclude,
9:12
it has to be. Those testinos.
9:14
Oh, that was so British. That
9:16
was so British. I got ripped
9:19
on weed smoke, not a huge
9:21
per taker, but when I take,
9:23
I'm took, okay? So, okay, the
9:25
kind of, the, when was this?
9:27
Okay, this was probably, after I
9:29
taped my special, I was like,
9:31
I'm gonna give myself two weeks
9:33
to smoke weed. Here's my, you
9:35
want my conclusion, yes. It's not
9:38
that great. It's not that great.
9:40
Yeah, it's okay The best part
9:42
of smoking weed is you know
9:44
you're not doing anything It's like
9:46
this time where you're like I
9:48
can't do my taxes. You know
9:50
what I mean? I I was
9:52
a huge weed smoker for most
9:54
of my adult life and then
9:57
I stopped like almost three years
9:59
ago, and then I was in
10:01
Seattle and I and I got
10:03
stoned for the first time of
10:05
a year and a half, not
10:07
even that high. And I was
10:09
like, I can't believe I just
10:11
used to do this before everything.
10:13
Wow, yeah. Because it really did,
10:16
like it was what everyone talks
10:18
about, my anxiety was high. I
10:20
just felt anxiety. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:22
I felt like I was like.
10:24
It's like spicy food. You get
10:26
used to your esophagus. Yeah, right.
10:28
Yes. And weed you got used
10:30
to being like, is the postman?
10:32
An assassin? Postman. Postman and assassin.
10:35
Postman and assassin. We said we'd
10:37
ask her bring in send in
10:39
the robot. How much were robot?
10:41
Is that the anus of AI?
10:43
Is it Jewish men that say
10:45
robot or is it just New
10:47
York? I thought it was just
10:49
guys I don't know. You don't
10:51
want it on that. Yeah, I
10:54
don't want it on that. Really.
10:56
I'm a big, I'm a big,
10:58
I was just gonna look at
11:00
future guy. Are you? Oh yeah.
11:02
Oh. Not touching it. I don't
11:04
believe there's a Jew in New
11:06
York. How about that? I'm going
11:08
the other way. What is a
11:10
sentence you could say with a
11:13
British accent that would sound exactly
11:15
the same if you said it
11:17
within an American accent. Like do
11:19
you understand we're looking for a
11:21
sentence that a British person would
11:23
say there would be no accent.
11:25
Is it going to understand this?
11:27
A good example might be, I
11:29
saw a panda. The pronunciation of
11:32
those words is pretty much identical
11:34
in both accents. I saw a
11:36
panda. That's not bad. I saw
11:38
a panda. Soul is tough. Soul
11:40
is tough. We're having issues with
11:42
it. I've seen a panda. I've
11:44
seen a panda. Is that better?
11:46
I've never engaged like this. No,
11:48
you're right. So and I might
11:51
give it away a bit. The
11:53
British intonation could sneak in there.
11:55
Maybe something even simpler, like a
11:57
man and a banana. It's straightforward
11:59
and avoids tricky words. Bananas. Yeah,
12:01
she just, she just, she just
12:03
showed her ones and zero. I,
12:05
uh, but I, I've never... Banana.
12:07
Bananas. Bananas. There was a cartoon
12:10
called Banana Man, but... Bananaman? When
12:12
Eric eats a banana? This guy,
12:14
when he ate a banana... Eric?
12:16
Yes, Eric. You do know what
12:18
I've talked about. When Eric, when
12:20
Eric eats a banana, he becomes...
12:22
Banana Man! They showed that during
12:24
Danger Mouse. How about the villain?
12:26
What was his name? Ready? I
12:29
remembered it like a year ago.
12:31
I've seen a panda. Baron von
12:33
Greenback. Because he was a frog.
12:35
That was the best show. Danger
12:37
Mouse. Remember when you're a kid?
12:39
Remember when you're a kid? And
12:41
you're not quite ready for like
12:43
real violence? Yes. But you kind
12:45
of want a protagonist like Darkwing
12:48
Duck, who looks like maybe he
12:50
punches people in the face. Great,
12:52
great, great, great ref again. Yes,
12:54
maybe Danger Mouse, who has an
12:56
eye patch. Yes. He might, he
12:58
might fight. It's like the Ninja
13:00
Turtles. Yeah, they have those weapons.
13:02
They are the gateway. They're the
13:04
weed. They are the weed. They
13:07
are the weed. To the heroin
13:09
of John Witt. Yes. Yes. I
13:11
was playing Red Dead Redemption yesterday
13:13
and my friend Michael Gunger was
13:15
watching me and he said bullets
13:17
are the, what did he call
13:19
them? He goes anti-sperm. He's like
13:21
men love shooting things. We shoot
13:23
sperm at women and make life.
13:26
We shoot bullets at men and
13:28
that is very interesting. That is
13:30
very well. It's bullet sperm. Now,
13:32
high or not high? Not high.
13:34
And he's watching you play? Yeah,
13:36
because I just set up a
13:38
theater here. Look, before you think
13:40
I'm a fancy pants with with
13:42
baggy socks and a pan of
13:45
real lower half that falls apart.
13:47
Go ahead. That you have to
13:49
show to a girlfriend who's not
13:51
even going to see you that
13:53
day. Yeah, but she still needs
13:55
to. Yes. How are you representing
13:57
us? There's notes on the street.
13:59
Always notes. I bought, I'm ready,
14:01
are you ready for something to
14:04
get better in your life? Yes.
14:06
This is like, fucking, I'm hot
14:08
on this tip. Let's go. You go
14:10
on amazon.com, you look for a
14:12
projector, wait, wait. I'm, wait. My
14:14
nipples are hard already. If you're
14:17
anything like me, you're like, projectors,
14:19
what am I, a swinger? You
14:21
know what I mean? What do
14:23
I have a shag carpet room?
14:25
You gotta bang my neighbor's wife?
14:27
Because you got a fucking
14:30
projector with the three colors,
14:32
red, yellow and blue. Hey
14:34
Don, I got a
14:36
projector. Lucy around? You
14:39
can have Sharon. We're doing
14:41
this. The projector is the
14:44
hot tub of the indoors.
14:46
It is. Yeah. It's like
14:49
a barrel life I have.
14:51
It's the massage chair projector,
14:53
cigar, humidador. Anyway. Anyway. So
14:56
I resisted projectors. Sure. I
14:58
was like, what? Am I that
15:01
kind of guy? I get it. That's
15:03
what I am. You're gonna want
15:05
to get a projector. Here's
15:07
the whole kitten kibood. Okay.
15:09
If you go on amazon.com, it's
15:11
a website run by a normal
15:13
guy. A normal guy. A fine
15:16
and normal guy. A regular guy.
15:18
So maybe, maybe, maybe go to
15:20
Best Buy, because I'm sure there's
15:22
my paw. Mindpar. Little shop called
15:24
Best Buy. Our sweetheart had a
15:26
place called Best Buy. I remember
15:28
when I thought of the idea
15:30
I was whittling. And I was
15:32
like, what do you want when
15:34
you buy something? You want the
15:36
best buy. Well, they make high
15:38
promises. Now I don't want to
15:40
go blown smoke over here, but we have
15:42
the Best Buy. Oh, projector, huh? So you
15:45
want to bang my wife? We're open.
15:47
You're going to make what you call
15:49
a projector projector hole, but it's
15:52
not for this. Just to bang the
15:54
neighbor through. Let me tell you, you
15:56
buy this projector on Monday, on Tuesday.
15:58
You're fucking your neighbor's. Let your
16:00
wife know the new chapter. Let
16:03
her know one of the unlisted
16:05
features of this project. Much like
16:07
a best buy during the day
16:09
she's open for business. And she
16:12
will have it. You're going to
16:14
take her all the way to
16:16
start. There's a lot of paperwork
16:19
with this machine. You're talking about
16:21
a whole new life. Looves, robes,
16:23
rugs. Mustaches? Mustaches? You're gonna need
16:25
a blowtorch lighter. Don't even ask
16:28
why. Decorative handgun, but it's real.
16:30
Those matches that are super long?
16:32
Probably for your incense. You'll need
16:34
a holder. Come back here. This
16:37
isn't... You need this! We don't
16:39
even sell half the stuff. Oh,
16:41
it's really, really? You buy this
16:44
project and you're going to eat
16:46
a lot of really long matches
16:48
that are totally, you're going to
16:50
need a bunch of those. There's
16:53
a guy laughing all the way
16:55
to the thing. Oh my God.
16:57
Who needs to hold a match
17:00
for a half hour? Walk me
17:02
through the pitch! They exist. They
17:04
do well. Are you tired of
17:06
burning your fingertips with a regular
17:09
match? Every time you light a
17:11
match, do you think? I wish
17:13
this went for another hour and
17:16
20. We've got the swap for
17:18
you, guy. Oh, that's right. They
17:20
won't even, they don't resist the
17:22
wind any better or anything like
17:25
that. They're under the same parameters
17:27
as a regular match. These are
17:29
called prayer matches. Light one and
17:32
hope. No if it goes
17:34
out then it's just a long stick
17:36
no one No one No one has
17:38
ever seen one of those burden past
17:40
the halfway mark. Why would never? Who
17:43
never? Lighters exist. Secondly, what what how
17:45
many things? Well, is it church? It's
17:47
for the fireplace, isn't it? Even then
17:49
because the swinger wants to go like
17:51
this. Yeah, and then you grab it
17:53
at the end and go You know
17:56
you throw it in bang your name
17:58
his wife and come back and it's
18:00
still going. Oh yeah. I, but even
18:02
for the fireplace. And if you're a
18:04
swing or be real, you have one
18:06
of those one button remotes that goes,
18:09
yep, that's what I'm, yeah, for sure.
18:11
Yes. You start having sex with many
18:13
wives? Yes. You get one of those
18:15
in the mail. Yeah, no. You don't
18:17
even have to order. It's like the
18:19
post office, they just gave it to
18:22
you. Yeah, it's on the new LARP,
18:24
AARP, A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A- Here's a wallet chain and
18:26
you know good luck good luck out there
18:28
get ready get ready hope your knees how's
18:30
the projector guy a projector is this close
18:33
to a very large aquarium inside true
18:35
it's very close to a very close to
18:37
a very large aquarium inside true it's very
18:40
close to a lava lamp lava lamp massage
18:42
chair I would never have I could need
18:44
if I sat in a massage chair and
18:46
was like this is the best thing that's
18:48
ever happened to me like I loved it
18:51
more than anything I would never have one
18:53
in my home yeah I agree I never
18:55
you're sitting there and I'm like yeah no
18:57
you said you want a beer not for
18:59
company it's not for company but it's
19:02
also it's like it's like you're cheating
19:04
on your wife kind of there's just
19:06
like 1% you're in a threple with
19:08
this chair yeah well it's a when
19:10
you start going crotch down in it
19:13
that's when it's like honey you know
19:15
you do yeah what about the ones
19:17
that squeeze your arms you put them
19:19
under the rest and they kind of
19:22
compress your arms and they kind of
19:24
Now there's this, you know what I've
19:26
started thinking and then I want to
19:28
hear about your projector life, but this
19:30
is where I also think Swinger Time is
19:32
a sauna, a home sauna, but not like,
19:34
not one where you're like... It's honest for
19:36
swing. Not one where like a guy comes
19:38
over and builds you one, like one of
19:40
those ones that you find on Instagram. It's
19:42
like a standalone. It's like a standalone foil
19:44
hut and they're just like, eh, burn yourself
19:46
for an afternoon. You'll sleep better. I'm like
19:48
right, I'm teetering. I need someone to intervene
19:50
and tell me to not... Garrett? Because where
19:53
am I going to put it? That's the real thing.
19:55
There's not a place that makes any sense. You know
19:57
what used to be right where we used to be
19:59
right where we are. a sauna. When I lived
20:01
in this house there was a sauna
20:03
right here because there's a 220 volt.
20:05
That's why I know. Look at that.
20:07
See that? See that? That's a
20:09
220 for the sauna. But I'm going
20:11
to tell you something I'm just going
20:14
to show my entire hand. My house
20:16
is the most are we swingers house
20:18
ever because I have a hot tub
20:20
which is just... Oh yeah. You want to? Don't
20:22
worry the filter gets the jiz. Yeah, that's
20:25
that's all it is. No, that's right. How's
20:27
this on jiz? You can't tell when Larry
20:29
came because of the bubbles. Yeah, that the hot
20:31
tub's perfect for that. The honest person
20:33
on a hot tub showroom just goes, how's
20:36
this on jiz? If anyone gives you a
20:38
hot tub is when the bubbles are going
20:40
it always looks like there's jiz in it.
20:42
So you're going to be able to be
20:44
able to nut and this a bunch and
20:46
it's a bunch and no one and no one
20:48
will know. We call that the
20:50
fog up the top! This is
20:53
called, it's top fog. Top fog!
20:55
You can be an early gizzard,
20:58
early gizzard, no one'll know. That
21:00
whole layer there looks like cum.
21:02
And by the by, it very
21:04
well might be. But, uh, you'll
21:07
never tell. It always looks
21:09
like a frothy load got
21:11
shot. So you can ban your
21:13
neighbor's wife, you can whack off
21:15
in these things. Let's see the
21:17
name of his way of isn't
21:20
up for it. Get in the
21:22
tub solo. Get in the tub
21:24
solo. Do your business. Those
21:26
jets go both ways? Don't
21:28
worry. Don't go under. Okay.
21:31
Back to the life-changing if you
21:33
can somehow get over the fact
21:35
that owning a projector is fucking
21:37
laser disk adjacent A lot of
21:39
projection with the projector from us
21:42
by the by like we're projecting a
21:44
lot on to it. Yes, but I
21:46
think that's okay. All right. So get
21:48
over the laser disk. I'm gonna yeah,
21:50
you know the guy that has it's
21:52
not to watch 2001 like this It
21:54
looks like a vinyl collection, but they're
21:56
laser disk and he's like this is
21:59
how and have to swap them
22:01
because there's too much data. Oh
22:03
right you gotta flip it or
22:05
so yeah right yeah. You're flipping
22:07
fucking Terminator 1. It's gonna feel
22:10
like you're on Mars until the
22:12
90-minute mark when I gotta flip
22:14
it. That's so funny my friend
22:16
Orin Brimmer who I love very
22:18
dearly he's like people like video
22:20
games are better than movies he's
22:23
like yeah they're very good but
22:25
don't forget that they're like you
22:27
need to be going into the
22:29
mountains to find that gold. Press
22:31
X to continue! Storywise. Rotate the
22:34
L stick to see the map.
22:36
Like that, you don't have that
22:38
in movies. Tap the triangle button
22:40
to draw your sword. You want
22:42
to save your guy? He's marked
22:44
on your mini map. But when
22:47
did you get the projector? Okay.
22:49
Here's the bit free thing. Do
22:51
you have a wall? You better
22:53
believe I do. Where the sun
22:55
is gonna be. Yeah, okay, I
22:58
got a wall. If you have
23:00
a wall. Yeah. That's how big
23:02
your TV is. Yeah. That's how
23:04
big your TV could be. And
23:06
here's the, the, where it's a
23:08
real, I just broke. It's a
23:11
real tip. Nobody wants 1080P projectors
23:13
anymore. What does that even mean?
23:15
That's fucking A right, what does
23:17
that even mean? 1080P, five, six
23:19
years ago was like, everyone's like,
23:22
holy shit, it's 1080P. That's like
23:24
the compression of the resolution. Right,
23:26
okay. Now it's 4K. But because
23:28
it's 4K, people who don't give
23:30
a fucking shit, people who are
23:32
honest, who don't fucking wanna see
23:35
every line. in the face of
23:37
the newscaster. Yeah. Can watch it
23:39
fucking. 1080P's dope. Yeah. It's fucking
23:41
dope. You got 200 bucks. You
23:43
got a wall. You got a
23:46
home theater. The end. And the
23:48
end. And how did you, and
23:50
how did you stumble, what was
23:52
your gateway into this world? I
23:54
made Val a video. This is
23:56
a weird. husband Flex, but I
23:59
made her a very awesome kind
24:01
of artsy video. This is your
24:03
ex who you were married to
24:05
before we started the podcast when
24:07
you took your ring off? Oh
24:10
yeah, right. Let me put this
24:12
back on. Oh you're back. What
24:14
a run you had though buddy.
24:16
You really... I couldn't do that
24:18
hot tub riff about first if
24:20
I was married? No, no, no.
24:23
No, she'd be fair. She'd have
24:25
every right to be. She'd have.
24:27
I've seen pandas. Well, a banana
24:30
is wrong. Oh, and banana is
24:32
wrong. That really reinforced my fear
24:35
over AI. I've seen. I've is
24:37
wrong. I've. I've. I've. I've. Clive.
24:39
Clive. Oh, Clive. Don't even. I've.
24:42
Clive. What a banana? Is there
24:44
a more British sentence than a
24:47
live one a banana? The Chad
24:49
GP2 is like, I want Pete
24:51
to stop talking to me. I
24:54
think we have beef. Banana. She
24:56
was wrong! Beef is closer! Beef!
24:59
Beef! Beef! Better than banana! What
25:01
was she doing? How dare she?
25:03
What's great is I won't be
25:06
rude to JetGPT, but you could
25:08
get back on that and be
25:10
like, no, what do you think?
25:13
That is the first time I've
25:15
actually heard it used. I've never
25:18
engaged in it. You gotta try
25:20
it. Oh, sorry. You don't have
25:22
to try it. I mean, I
25:25
will. It'll make you less scared.
25:27
Watch this. Watch this. Okay. I'm
25:30
sitting with podcaster and comedian Gareth
25:32
Reynolds. What's a fun question I
25:34
could ask him. You should do
25:37
your ads while she thinks. How
25:39
about what's the weirdest animal fact
25:41
you've learned that you wish you
25:44
didn't know? Knowing Gareth, that could
25:46
spark some hilarious conversation. Would that
25:49
fit the vibe? I think so,
25:51
yeah. Wait, do you do animal
25:53
facts or something? I mean, I'm
25:56
begging to animal. Are you? Yeah!
25:58
She knows. She really was, she's
26:01
like, that actually worries me now.
26:03
No, don't be worried. That's a
26:05
good, that's a good prompt.
26:08
Buddy, you host a pod? You ever
26:10
want to do some sloppy research? Just
26:12
get in there with Chad Chipet. Oh,
26:15
geez. Yeah, there's a lot of good,
26:17
she's right. What's a weird animal fact?
26:19
Do you have one? Oh God. Do
26:21
you know a lot of animal facts?
26:23
Yeah. All right. What's a good amount.
26:26
What's a weird one. What's a weird
26:28
one. You were wearing the turkey vulture?
26:30
I'm just picturing a vulture with
26:32
the plumage of a turkey. Some
26:34
point, a vulture, they were all like, hey,
26:36
he's gonna go eat that turkey. And they
26:38
were like, Jesus, Harry! And he's like,
26:41
fucking. You know? Wait, it's a vulture.
26:43
It's a turkey. So it's some, it
26:45
looks like a turkey. Wait, wait, I'm
26:47
sorry. Did it vulture? My little... The
26:49
vulture has a projection. We have
26:51
the answer there if we want
26:53
to know. But I think that
26:55
yeah, one day a vulture was
26:58
like, I'm actually gonna fuck it first.
27:00
And then they were like, it's
27:02
gonna pull through and he's like,
27:04
oh shit, it's pregnant. And it
27:06
wants to keep it. And you
27:08
know, so then we have a
27:10
turkey vulture, so then enough turkey
27:12
vultures are out there. So a turkey.
27:14
Sorry. is that there was a
27:17
turkey who was dying. Yes. So
27:19
the vultures came. Yeah. And then
27:21
one of the vultures was like,
27:23
yeah. One of the vultures was
27:25
like, before we do our thing,
27:27
just give me a minute. Yeah.
27:29
And then someone was like, looks
27:32
like it's gonna pull through. Yeah.
27:34
And he was like, wait, what?
27:36
And they have a code where
27:38
they won't kill something. Well, they
27:40
just want things that are dead.
27:42
Yeah. Right. The vulture was like,
27:44
Jesus. Hold on, I gotta keep it. Hold
27:46
on, I gotta go talk to it a little
27:48
bit. He's like, come on, it won't make any
27:51
sense. It's gonna be a turkey vulture. What the
27:53
fuck is it gonna look like? What are we gonna
27:55
call it? A verki? A culture? This isn't gonna
27:57
work. And it was like, broo, boy was
27:59
raised. to think that every life
28:01
was important no matter
28:04
how much it gets. It's religious.
28:06
Yeah, it's religious. Yeah, it's a
28:08
religious. How would God hear its
28:11
port of gold's plan? He's like,
28:13
hey, come on. It reads Horton,
28:16
here's a whoa. You're gonna
28:18
have to raise it on your
28:20
own. I'm not going to be
28:22
able to bring guts over all
28:25
every week and stuff. I've died
28:27
in the desert. Holy shit! And
28:29
she's like, I believe he
28:31
has a stash in that
28:33
cave? What the fuck? I
28:35
showed you that in
28:38
company! Shouldn't the
28:40
fuck you in California!
28:42
Why don't I bang you in
28:45
New Mexico? You get
28:47
10%! Now I'm dropping guts
28:49
off of this kid I
28:52
didn't even want! You look
28:54
like you were gonna die!
28:56
Music is easy for me
28:58
to find other turkeys now.
29:00
This is a weird way for it
29:02
to go. Oh. That's it. I'm only
29:05
eating them from that
29:07
one. Why couldn't I have
29:09
fucked a near dead turkey in
29:11
New Mexico? Oh, you think
29:14
it's easy for me out there?
29:16
I got it! Not easy for
29:18
any of us. I regret what
29:20
I did that day. It was
29:22
a dark time. Good Lord.
29:24
You're making me laugh so much I've wondered,
29:26
like I have to, I think I should get
29:28
a physical, like I'm, like why am I coughing
29:30
and sweating so much? Could you? Absolutely. Let me
29:32
ask you that, how would you? I don't want to answer
29:35
that question, but let me get, no I'm not,
29:37
we're the same age I think. Are we, have
29:39
you had a colonoscopy? I just canceled mine like
29:41
a week ago. What do you mean? Well I
29:43
had barely get it off, I'd barely been in
29:45
town, I'd barely been in town, I'd barely been
29:47
in town, and um... Like I only had like five
29:49
days in town and one of them is going to
29:51
be spent prepping for a colonoscopy and the other doing
29:53
it and I was like, I'm going to push it.
29:55
Well you are going to do it? Yeah. I've heard
29:57
the drug they give you is fantastic. You haven't gotten
29:59
yours. No. What are you? I'm 45.
30:01
What are you? I'm 45. Yeah. I
30:03
thought you were... I thought you
30:06
were... I'm not trying to... No.
30:08
Look, stop... I thought I
30:10
would have believed 35. I would
30:13
go with you 35. Yeah.
30:15
You think I could call up
30:17
35? You know? You think
30:19
I could go in front of
30:21
people and be like, hello,
30:23
I'm 35 and they wouldn't, I'll
30:26
just laugh like... Who would
30:28
be 35? because you've been famous.
30:30
You couldn't be 35. Your
30:32
career aged. Michael kind. Yeah, you're.
30:34
Maggie Smith has been old our whole life.
30:37
And you, I think, physically appear way younger
30:39
than you are. But keep in mind, when
30:41
we first watch Pete Holmes, you look like
30:43
you're nine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You look so
30:46
young when you start, but we know you're
30:48
an adult. So it throws you off. I
30:50
like this. But you've been famous for, in
30:53
a good way. You've been famous with a
30:55
long. where we think, oh, well, we've known,
30:57
Pete's been around for so long. He has
30:59
to be in his 40s. I think he
31:02
broke when he was 18? Yeah. Or
31:04
nine. Or nine. Nine. And those first
31:06
Pete Holmes bits you. Well, my social,
31:08
or wonderful, my social person, Jake,
31:10
who I love very much, he posted
31:12
the clip from my second Conan, and
31:14
I just done a juice fast, and
31:16
I was like, 30. And I was
31:18
like, Jesus Christ. You could cook a marshmallow
31:21
off that kid's glow. Like and I
31:23
looked at it and then I looked
31:25
in the mirror and I was like
31:27
I look like this kid's parole officer.
31:29
Also the problem with doing stuff for
31:31
so long. Yeah. Is there's a record.
31:34
Yes. But my first Conan I look
31:36
like I ate the kid in the
31:38
second Conan. Like I'm real big. See
31:40
that's what you are. These are okay riffs
31:42
if it's you. Go ahead. Well this
31:44
would be my recommendation. Twenty. Twenties go
31:46
fat. Be fat in your 20s.
31:49
That's your 20s years. Be fat
31:51
in your 20s. Do it. Maybe
31:53
till you're 32, then start shrinking.
31:56
It's like my friends who
31:58
went bald when they were... 20. They
32:00
look the same, they looked old
32:02
at 20. Yeah. Now they look
32:04
like they haven't aged in 20.
32:06
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They got
32:08
it out of the way. You
32:10
go fat in your 20s and
32:12
then you could spend your life
32:14
kind of getting skinnier and then
32:16
that is going to help you
32:18
with the, oh you look good.
32:20
I'm not saying Jonah Ray. was
32:22
there i don't want to use
32:24
the body shame fat word i'm
32:26
just saying he was heavier fat
32:28
you can i mean i was
32:30
fat he was a fat no
32:32
he was he was a heavier
32:34
person uh-huh now he looks like
32:36
a fucking yeah now he looks
32:38
like he owns like a surf
32:40
shop he looks like he owns
32:43
a surf shop and he looks
32:45
like he owns a surf shop
32:47
and he looks like he knows
32:49
Jason's All right, what are you
32:51
after? Easy, Jason, that now. He's
32:53
in the sauna. Hold Jason, you
32:55
stay in there a little fucking
32:57
dying in here. Can you imagine
32:59
how small to tell Jason Satham
33:01
would use in a sauna? It's
33:03
the one in the hotel where
33:05
you're like, people use it. Yeah,
33:07
yeah, he's got that wrapped around
33:09
his waist. You all right, John,
33:11
John, it's a bit bushy. Frizzy.
33:13
Jason, he looks like he owns
33:15
Jason Satham. Yeah, I bought him.
33:17
I bought him and I'll be
33:19
honest, he wasn't that much. No,
33:21
I see something. What if you
33:23
went on Cameo and Jason Satham
33:25
was like five bucks? Yeah. Do
33:27
you forget a little sad on
33:29
the... Are you on the game?
33:31
No. I'm not on the camera.
33:33
I'm not on it and I
33:35
don't shame anyone. I don't shame
33:37
anybody but I do drag my
33:39
feet. I also think it's weird
33:41
to be like I just want
33:43
to I'd be like 25 dollars
33:45
I'd be like it feels weird
33:47
it feels like I think I'll
33:49
end up on there when everything
33:51
falls apart. Yeah that's why neither
33:53
of us is closing the door.
33:55
Yes. And then I'm like oh
33:57
I could do cameo as... Batman
33:59
and then I'm like a little
34:01
That's a that's a good twist.
34:03
I Think you can you could
34:05
do that and You here's what
34:08
you do you start off and
34:10
you go this is for charity
34:12
And then you just slowly stop
34:14
doing that take that off the
34:16
profile That's
34:19
how it starts. That is so
34:21
fucking funny. That's how you do
34:23
it. That is so fucking funny.
34:25
Start there. You start and you're
34:27
giving it all. So going to
34:29
Children's Hospital. Children's Hospital and then
34:32
one day it's not on there.
34:34
Yank it. You know it's like
34:36
how you break up online. You
34:38
never go like, just your pictures
34:40
don't have a person in it
34:42
anymore. Sometimes you're still in there.
34:44
Yeah. I've caught myself scrolling through
34:47
an ex's photographs and there we
34:49
are. And I'm like, pardon? Yes,
34:51
yeah, I am. I've been, I
34:53
was single for so long and
34:55
then I've been private for as
34:57
long. Like I don't let. Oh,
34:59
no, no personal info. Very light.
35:02
No, my Facebook and all that.
35:04
I mean, people can find it,
35:06
but I, but I'm not, I'm
35:08
not posting vacay picks. That's, that's
35:10
just not what the pages. It's
35:12
weird to me, I have an
35:14
inability to do it. It's like
35:17
my whole, everything I have out
35:19
there is just basically like, even
35:21
if it sucks, it's like, it's
35:23
crowd work, shut the fuck up.
35:25
Like it's never me, like, great
35:27
lunch with Tony. Like, I can't,
35:29
I can't do that part of
35:32
it. But it's, uh, it's fucking
35:34
Robert Downey Jr. Great lunch with
35:36
Tony. He's like, what? He didn't
35:38
want to do it with Statham.
35:40
Um, yeah, I just don't do
35:42
that. That's not your gym. No,
35:44
and I think like, it's, I
35:47
don't know. I think that it,
35:49
it's so weird. How long, you've
35:51
been married for what? We've been
35:53
together for 12 years. Yeah. Because
35:55
I was just talking as. somebody
35:57
about that and I was like
36:00
that's that's a long time it
36:02
doesn't feel like it's been that
36:04
long you're established in a thing
36:06
yeah long enough so you're kind
36:08
that to me makes more sense
36:10
you have like a family you
36:12
have more my life has been so oddly
36:14
solo for so long and that's like yeah
36:16
now I now that I am dating someone
36:19
she is not she doesn't really give a
36:21
she's not like get me on there you
36:23
know yeah so that's a good sign it's
36:25
great it's a weird sign it's great I saw,
36:27
where did I see, I don't want to
36:29
shit on somebody. Oh, Ricky Linholm had a
36:31
joke about, she sang a song and Ricky
36:33
no shots here. I just thought
36:35
it was an interesting perspective that
36:37
the song was about how she's
36:39
mad that her boyfriend doesn't take
36:41
more pictures of her. And I was like, again,
36:44
full respect to Ricky. I'm just like, oh
36:46
my fucking God, I didn't know how good
36:48
I had it. And I did. Oh yeah.
36:50
But Val has never been like. Why don't
36:52
you take more pictures of me? Or why
36:54
don't you post more of me? And if
36:56
she did say that, I'm going to say
36:59
it. I'd be like, I just texted you something and
37:01
it's divorced. Texting a beer. It's a PDF. It's not
37:03
a picture of you, but it does start with me.
37:05
She printed them. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you've
37:07
been served That would be I can't handle that. No,
37:09
I you know what I've sacrificed it for I'll take
37:12
pictures of her like for her for her for her
37:14
social media Okay, all right, and that is demeaning enough.
37:16
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's up there with holding my dog. That's
37:18
hold my dog. She sent me a tick-talk the other day
37:20
on how to how to take the other day on how
37:23
to take the other day on how to take the other

37:38
to take the Right now, we're not actually answering stuff about
37:40
age. We're very excited. She looks very young, but we're actually
37:42
not gonna get into age-specific stuff right now. Very good.
37:45
Thank you. That was great. Two
37:47
mics, it becomes a presser. I automatically
37:49
shift. One mic I can
37:51
pod two. It's very... I'm
37:53
deflecting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no
37:55
information. Val just said something
37:57
so funny to me where she was like...
37:59
The worst part of murdering someone is
38:02
keeping. Right? Isn't the murder. She said
38:04
this. I say that because I'm like, I
38:06
think this is legit hilarious. Oh, and then
38:08
I have a bit I want to run
38:10
by you. And I don't, I think it's
38:12
so funny, but I don't know if it
38:15
actually is. It is. I love you so
38:17
much. She goes, the worst part of murder,
38:19
because we're watching Bad Sisters, isn't murdering. It's
38:21
keeping your story straight. There's a cop that
38:23
keeps being being like, sorry on Thursday. You
38:25
said you were at the laundromat,
38:27
but the laundromat's closed on Thursday.
38:29
And you have to be like,
38:31
yeah, I was there, but it
38:33
was to use the change machine out
38:36
front. And then like you skated
38:38
by another one? I can't. If
38:40
you were like, where were you yesterday?
38:42
I'd be like, I don't know. I
38:44
agree. And it's also the fact that
38:46
the... The idea that someone's trying to hunt
38:48
you down for information is so stressful that
38:51
any second you could say the wrong and
38:53
you go to jail I would just quit
38:55
like I've always thought that about like in
38:57
the third act of a horror movie where
39:00
the main protagonist is like fighting through hell
39:02
Yes, to like win. Yes, I'm like I'd
39:04
be caving by now I would genuinely be
39:06
like this is stressed me out on a
39:09
level cut my throat, all self-cut. They would,
39:11
like, the killer would find me
39:13
and be like, did he cut
39:15
his own throat? Because I'm like,
39:17
I can't. That is ready to
39:19
go. That is the funniest premise.
39:22
But you know what I mean?
39:24
Like, I'll watch a movie and
39:26
be like, I'll watch a movie. I
39:28
think all you need is now that
39:30
I'm in my 40s, I realize that
39:33
if I was being chased by a
39:35
killer and you'd just be like. Yeah,
39:37
without qu- Yeah, if it was like
39:39
really writing, if Chad GPT was writing
39:41
my thoughts, they'd be like, about page
39:44
70, I take, I jump off a
39:46
building. Yeah. Or you flee. You're just
39:48
like, I don't know who he has.
39:50
It's that chase, it's the chase through
39:52
the woods. Through the woods. Where I'm
39:55
like, I hear him, like, that's when
39:57
I would just like, like, this is
39:59
too much. I'd be whittling down a
40:01
branch. Or come and get me. Yes.
40:03
Come and get me. But I
40:05
wouldn't even be able to handle that,
40:07
like the whole hovering. I don't
40:09
want that to be in the driver's
40:11
seat. He's gonna walk. He's slow.
40:13
Yep, maybe, like, it'll be like a
40:15
slope. I'm like, I know. It's
40:17
close on your face, and you're like,
40:19
whoop, whoop, whoop. And then we
40:21
widen see that he's hooked to stomach
40:24
somehow. I know, I'm gonna go
40:26
quick. Yeah. I'll just go like that,
40:28
like 80 to the branch in
40:30
my throat. Pulling, like, little veins out.
40:32
Like, it'll be graphic -ish, but it's
40:34
just for me. It's like masturbating.
40:36
It would be gross to watch if
40:38
anyone else was seeing it, but
40:40
for me, I'm very comfortable doing it.
40:42
I'm just sort of like how
40:44
I think carjackers work, how you jump
40:46
a car. I'm just going like
40:48
that. He's crossing wires and he's starting
40:50
again. He jumps you. I actually
40:52
feel amazing. I sound like RFK. Right
40:54
now, I'm feeling pretty good, to
40:56
be honest with you. I've never felt
40:58
like my throat was more on
41:00
fire, but I, the energy, I
41:03
could run. As you're giving yourself 80 to
41:05
the neck. And my neck's open, I'm like,
41:07
I could run a marathon right now. And
41:09
then I die. I'm
41:12
dead forever. I'm
41:14
dead forever. They'd find me
41:16
in the corner and be like,
41:18
I really don't know. I
41:20
think this guy stabbed himself head.
41:22
I don't know, it might
41:24
be a wolf. It's hard to
41:26
tell. mean, his hands are
41:28
covered in blood. His right hand
41:30
is covered in his own
41:32
blood, so that's a, this guy
41:34
may as well be a
41:36
herring. I'm dead. We've all been
41:38
there where you eat something
41:40
too much. You're sweating, your pants
41:42
hate you all of a
41:44
sudden and you vow, I'm going
41:46
to do a detox. I'm
41:48
going to cut out everything fun
41:50
from my life, but that
41:52
doesn't work. Let's talk about something
41:54
that actually does work. Peek,
41:56
poor tea. I'm not getting when
41:58
I tell you this stuff
42:01
absolutely changes the game. I start
42:03
my mornings now with green,
42:05
poor, P -U -E -R. And let
42:07
me tell you, it's like flipping
42:09
a switch. I get this
42:11
calm, focused energy that doesn't come
42:13
with the caffeine jitters or
42:15
that dreaded. afternoon crash. It is clean, it is lean,
42:17
gets in you and you feel fantastic. And after meals, black
42:19
pooer is my go-to, it's smooth, earthy, and leaves me light
42:21
and balance instead of feeling like I just swallowed a brick.
42:23
And here's the kicker. Pooer tea isn't just tea, it's fermented,
42:25
which means it's loaded with living probiotics and prebiotics that actually
42:27
support your gut health. That means it's like a reset button
42:29
for your microbiome for your microbiome. Energy, metabolism, and even
42:31
radiant skin. Yeah, tea makes you
42:33
glow. Who knew? Let's talk about
42:36
quality because these are wild harvested
42:38
from 250-year-old tea trees. We're talking
42:40
next-level purity. They're triple, toxin-screen, and
42:42
they dissolve instantly or hot. in
42:45
hot or cold water, which I
42:47
love being able to make and
42:49
ice tea instantly. I've never seen
42:51
that before in my life, but
42:54
peak tea can be made in
42:56
cold water. No tea bags, no
42:58
steeping, just instant, got healing magic
43:00
for when you need it most.

43:34
We are also brought to us
43:36
by our friends at the Perfect
43:38
Gene. You guys, of course I'm
43:40
wearing them right now, because I
43:42
am always wearing my perfect gene,
43:45
because I hate heart pants, and
43:47
I hate pants that look like
43:49
they're soft. Guess what? Perfect jeans
43:51
are soft and stretchy. They don't
43:53
crush your nuts, but they look
43:55
like designer jeans, because they're designed
43:57
incredibly comfortable, but also incredibly well.
43:59
The craftsmanship, the cut, the wash, everything
44:02
about these. I've won them on red
44:04
carpets, worn them on dates. I've won
44:06
them in the biggest situations in my
44:09
life. I've also just taken a nap
44:11
in them, because they're as comfortable as
44:13
pejos. You might even forget you're wearing
44:15
pants. Why are we still wearing hard
44:18
pants? It's 2025 guys. Break into something
44:20
that looks fantastic and is also comfortable,
44:22
just enough stretch, but you're not going
44:25
to have a saggy diaper butt. Life
44:27
is too short for denim that fights
44:29
you every step of the way. These
44:31
jeans move with you, whether you're chasing
44:34
your kids, tackling chores, or just chilling
44:36
like a boss. Over 400,000 old young,
44:38
big, and small men agree. The perfect
44:41
gene is just that, the perfect gene.
44:43
Imagine denim so stretchy. It's yoga ready.
44:45
Sharp to turn heads. That's true. and
44:47
comfy enough, you'll forget you're even wearing
44:50
them. What can you do in a
44:52
perfect gene? You can rescue a stray
44:54
cat like a denim superhero. You can
44:57
man spread during game night. That's pretty
44:59
cool. You can even break some hearts
45:01
and pull some muscles on the dance
45:04
floor. The perfect gene has six fits.
45:06
They go from 26 to 50 weights
45:08

45:40
to the show. Do you know what
45:43
else is over because of Tik Talk?
45:45
Remember in the 2000s or not that
45:47
long ago you would watch a show
45:49
like MythBusters where they're like Yep. Do
45:52
you think if you drive a Jeep
45:54
at the same rate as a Corvette
45:56
the Jeep will have better gas or
45:59
actually the real one would be window
46:01
down or air conditioning which is better
46:03
and it's an hour show yes and
46:05
in the 2000s we were fucking ding
46:08
dong yes we'd sit through nine commercial
46:10
breaks just waiting for these two fucking
46:12
dorks to finally be like the data
46:15
is in yeah it's just it's faster
46:17
to have the AC is a window
46:19
Now that's a tick talk. Yes. Like
46:22
which is which is faster? Windows down
46:24
or air conditioning? It's actually air conditioning.
46:26
And we're just like fucking. 30 seconds
46:28
30 seconds and that was too long
46:31
to waste on that shit. I was
46:33
just thinking this last night and then
46:35
I want you to give me the
46:38
bit. You're gonna get the bit this
46:40
last night when I was watching a
46:42
very interesting video with Noam Chomsky and
46:44
it was seven minutes and I was
46:47
like buddy you've got to watch this
46:49
all. And I was like, well it's
46:51
so long. I was like, it's seven
46:54
minutes of one of the greatest minds
46:56
of our time explaining the inequality in
46:58
society and where he thinks it's headed.
47:01
And I was like, just get to
47:03
it. Yeah, could we speed this up?
47:05
Can we eliminate the, like the way
47:07
that they cut the pauses? Yeah, oh
47:10
yeah. I was like, let's go gnome.
47:12
But and the problem is, this is
47:14
going to be old man time. It
47:17
turns out we don't actually want to
47:19
know if the car saves gas with
47:21
windows down or air conditioning We wanted
47:23
something to you know just kind of
47:26
experience and now all we have is
47:28
the data and it goes right through
47:30
you You know in the old days
47:33
you'd say like Chinese food. I don't
47:35
know if that's inappropriate now I again
47:37
I'm not gonna do I'm not I'm
47:39
really a Jewish man in New York
47:42
on Christmas Eve. No I said I
47:44
said I won't even acknowledge a Jew
47:46
in New York. You know they love
47:49
Chinese food on Christmas. I won't do
47:51
Chinese digestion. I don't know how does
47:53
kung-pow that's what you said. And you
47:56
know I would never do that. I
47:58
just thought of a I just thought
48:00
of Bob Dylan and Frank of Musos,
48:02
though, or whatever the fuck it's called.
48:05
Does that what it's called? Frank and
48:07
Musos? Yeah. Rusos? Here's what it is.
48:09
Musos and Frank. How did everyone
48:11
like their meal? How was the
48:14
meal? I said, how was your
48:16
meal? What if Bob Dylan was
48:18
your waiter and then you turned
48:20
around? Because the fries, they are
48:22
a-changing. That's when Burger King changed
48:24
their fries. We're doing sweet potato
48:27
fries this week instead of regular
48:29
rusted. Oh, really? Bob? Yeah, I don't
48:31
know if you heard. The fries,
48:33
they are a-changing. Oh, okay, that's
48:35
a long walk. I have a
48:38
question for you. What percentage was
48:40
Bob Dylan? Because I think he's
48:42
a genius. Yes. Do you think
48:44
he was just noticing what was-
48:46
popular. Do you think it's possible
48:49
that he was like, I could
48:51
do whatever I want because I'm
48:53
a brilliant genius? And he was
48:55
like, you know what seems to be
48:58
popular is like, well, get off
49:00
a back government or whatever. Do
49:02
you think he was like an opportunist
49:05
at all? I mean, nothing wrong with
49:07
being an opportunity. This is what's so
49:09
funny about him is like, he even
49:11
like when he's asked about those prolific
49:14
five or six years I don't even
49:16
know what the songs about he's like
49:18
he honestly is like I don't know
49:20
how that guy did that yeah it's
49:22
like that's you yeah I think that
49:24
I put myself in a place yeah
49:26
but I'm a stranger there so I I
49:28
don't even think he could be opportunistic in
49:31
that sense because he doesn't have that
49:33
year I agree with that and I
49:35
think it I think that all the
49:37
time with would the time we're living in
49:39
now Sorry, that was... Oh, he
49:41
did full Dylan voice. That's going
49:43
to age poorly. FTV. Cut that
49:46
out, obviously. Cut it out, obviously.
49:48
Hey! I think that, like, now
49:50
we're so starved for those sort
49:52
of voices. Oh yeah, like authentic?
49:54
Authentic to the time we're
49:57
living in inequality too. And
49:59
why don't... we have one that's
50:01
kind of a weird like we have
50:03
some but they're kind of you know
50:05
I watched this well I I don't
50:07
know I definitely think it's really weird
50:09
to watch people who you think could
50:11
pull that off just kind of be
50:13
like purely capitalists for everything sure and
50:15
even I would say there's they there's
50:17
the like with what Burr Burr was
50:19
recently on Kimmel and he was sort
50:21
of talking about like Luigi Mangio and
50:23
like everyone was like Yes! Like so
50:26
many people who feel like that is,
50:28
doesn't have a voice. I think it
50:30
would be even in capitalism, profitable to
50:32
be like, hey, what's going on? Government
50:34
and society would be popular. Yeah, yeah,
50:36
yeah, yeah. But I think people just
50:38
are making this play for right now.
50:40
I want to make exactly. That's a
50:42
deal. And I think that that's why
50:44
Dylan's so cool. He's like, oh, sorry.
50:46
Did that fuck up your day? And
50:48
he was so popular. And it was
50:50
so, but then. So I think that
50:52
it was like, I think Chappelle is
50:55
close. Sorry. No, I think you're right
50:57
in ways. And then there's also times
50:59
when you're like, what do you, I
51:01
completely agree? What are you talking? Why,
51:03
why waste your beautiful voice on this?
51:05
I agree. And I'm sure people felt
51:07
that way about Dylan. Yeah, they probably
51:09
did. Yeah. Well, I know when you
51:11
like plugged in an electric guitar, everyone
51:13
was like, you son of a bitch.
51:15
Whoa, because he was like, because he
51:17
was like, because he was like, because
51:19
he was like, because he was like,
51:22
because he was like, like, like, like,
51:24
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
51:26
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
51:28
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
51:30
like, like, When Michael B. Jordan plays
51:32
Dave Chappelle in the biopic yeah, right?
51:34
They don't even look like I'm just
51:36
saying a great actor Yeah, right bring
51:38
Chappelle and tells the story and shows
51:40
you the gear of there'll be that
51:42
Yeah, they'll be that phase a weird
51:44
there was also the Christian Dylan phase
51:46
where people were like what yeah, there
51:48
were phases now and then he like
51:51
I mean now he's just like I
51:53
mean he's great. He looks like the
51:55
Jack in the deck in the deck
51:57
he really does he looks like the
51:59
jack is that what he's doing now
52:01
i think in the on his mirror
52:03
is a jack of spades and he's
52:05
like How much longer do I have
52:07
to sit for this? Quiet Bob. I
52:09
got to call my agent. All right,
52:11
not now. I have a question for
52:13
you. Go. A lot of Bob D
52:15
questions. Sure. Katie, you can play too.
52:17
Does Bob Dylan still smoke? No. We're
52:20
getting chat. GPT involved. Yeah? Cigarettes? He
52:22
has to. We're asking her. Does Bob
52:24
Dylan still smoke cigarettes? I
52:28
don't believe he does anymore.
52:30
Bob Dylan reportedly quit smoking
52:32
cigarettes years ago to preserve
52:34
his voice. So there's always
52:36
been some mystery around his
52:39
personal habits. Why were you
52:41
curious about his legendary rasp?
52:43
I love, you know, keeps
52:45
the conversation. No, she's brilliant.
52:47
Remember when she was like...
52:49
Want to get lunch? Want
52:51
to go get a bite?
52:54
B-Y-T-E. Okay. She'll have chips.
52:57
She wants to get chips. Oh my
52:59
god. Mother cheese board? I don't know.
53:01
It's it. Ivan on pushing it. Sorry
53:04
Pete. Chat, stop it. Here's the bit.
53:06
Okay. Full context, which is cheating. I
53:08
was high. Okay. And I thought this
53:11
was the funniest thing. And you'll know.
53:13
It has the flavor of a joke
53:15
that you would make while you were
53:17
high. Okay. And my friends were with
53:20
me were all so high and they
53:22
were like, I don't know. And I
53:24
literally, what's that? It's amazing for them
53:27
to be like, we're not sure, Pete.
53:29
They were not sure. Because we were
53:31
all kind of now, is this because
53:33
you're right, you're right, you're right, you're
53:36
right, you're genuinely like, it's not like,
53:38
it's not like, you're right, you're right,
53:40
you're genuinely like, it's not like, you're
53:43
like, you're like, you're like, like, like,
53:45
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:47
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:49
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:52
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:54
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:56
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
53:59
like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
54:01
like Good for you! Get out of
54:03
my house! Good for you! Well, you
54:05
know, one of my friends- Put the
54:08
project- away. Which musician, if he was
54:10
like, that could be a song, I
54:12
would be like, I can see to
54:15
you. You're a musician. I would just,
54:17
but look, I agree. I'm only telling
54:19
you that. I have this conversation with
54:21
the Normies and I don't mind calling
54:24
on that. No. I, I think we
54:26
have to evacuate. Oh my god. Can't
54:28
say Normies. I love that you're yes
54:31
ending. But the reason I'm telling you,
54:33
you know, is to give me a
54:35
higher place to fall from if this
54:37
bit is truly unfunny. And we're about
54:40
to find out. Let's see. Because that
54:42
is important. I'm also high and I'm
54:44
like, I know this is funny. Yeah.
54:47
So I was emboldened by the toxins.
54:49
Yes. Here's the bit. That's a new
54:51
great way of saying you're emboldened by
54:54
the toxins. Perfect. Me and my friends,
54:56
we get together, we're getting emboldened by
54:58
the toxins by the toxinsons tonight, son.
55:00
Put the toxins up your butt. I
55:03
was a Dana Carby little bit. I
55:05
don't know why I don't know why
55:07
that seemed like Dana Carby Here's the
55:10
bet. Okay. I think it's so funny
55:12
that the White House where the president
55:14
lives is a house. They live there
55:16
Mm-hmm. That's their house. I like this
55:19
So every election uh-huh like we just
55:21
had an election. Yeah new mattress like
55:23
you got to move out the Biden
55:26
mattress So that means there's a four-year
55:28
mattress. You can't, that's, I mean, mattresses
55:30
last a long time. They're just tossing
55:32
out mattresses. Yeah. Every four years. And
55:35
this is the part, I would, because
55:37
you can't, this was the part that
55:39
everyone did laugh at. I actually think
55:42
it's the weakest part. I go, you
55:44
can't get the Clinton mattress? That thing
55:46
sucked through like a translate chase cake.
55:48
That's a hard joke. That's why that's
55:51
a hard joke. The preface is great.
55:53
Because it's a hard wait. Here's the
55:55
here's the part that I thought was
55:58
the funniest. Okay. But I actually think
56:00
trace-like chase cake is the funniest here
56:02
in my sober state. Yep. But when
56:04
I was stoned, I was like, this
56:07
is the funniest part. So when if
56:09
you get two. the mattress gets to
56:11
stay in the White House for eight
56:14
years. So really, when a president is
56:16
running for re-election, the mattress is also
56:18
running for re-election. It could be part
56:20
of the pitch. It's like, we don't
56:23
want to throw away this mattress? We're
56:25
not going to put a new mattress
56:27
in, that would be crazy. We just
56:30
got this one, even when you're being
56:32
impeached. I did do that, but I'm
56:34
saying... What are we going to do,
56:36
bring in for the VP? Or are
56:39
we taking his mattress from his room?
56:41
And put, it's a lot of moving
56:43
and it's a lot of work. And
56:46
I don't think we really, I don't
56:48
think we should have that much moving
56:50
of mattress. That's what makes my pillow
56:52
guys so interesting. When he gets involved.
56:55
When Trump lost to Biden, you know
56:57
it. Maybe at one point he was
56:59
like, come on, we just put that
57:02
mattress and there's a Donald mattress, that's
57:04
my mattress? I don't want sleepy Joe
57:06
spending every day on that mattress. All
57:08
he's doing. Well, you can't have Biden's
57:11
carcinophicus. You
57:13
can't have all the dandruff
57:15
and fucking skin cells from
57:17
an old man. That one
57:20
you replace. Without question. For
57:22
sure. Now here's another question.
57:24
Okay. Trump wins. He gets
57:26
his mattress. Trump loses. Biden
57:28
gets his mattress. Trump comes
57:31
back. Was that mattress in
57:33
storage? This is what I
57:35
think. As he's leaving. Don't
57:37
bother throwing that mattress out.
57:39
I'll be using it again
57:42
real soon. Put it
57:44
on ice You're gonna want to
57:46
put that mattress on ice. I'm
57:48
gonna be back. Don't let Joey
57:50
Biden probably was like can we
57:53
take the mattress? You wanted it?
57:55
Yeah, I want to sleep in
57:57
it. I love some of the
57:59
best sleep I ever had You've
58:01
never slept till you sleep where
58:04
Donald slept on the floor next
58:06
to Donald. Joe. Could I hire
58:08
Donald to sleep in there with
58:10
me? Can I fire, I think,
58:12
come on man, sleep next to
58:15
him. Just, I just want to
58:17
know Donald's near. He's not sleeping
58:19
in the same room. He goes
58:21
to bed at 6. I'm tweet-shitting
58:23
at 4.45 a. Tech me in
58:26
guy. All right, look, go to
58:28
bed. You're gonna have an unbelievable
58:30
night's sleep. Thank you, man. Close
58:32
your eyes. They've been closed all
58:34
day. I thought so. I thought
58:37
they were. Last time they were
58:39
open. Yeah, when you put Biden
58:41
to bed, you go, keep your
58:43
eyes close? Not gonna be an
58:45
issue. Your way out of line.
58:47
Remember when Biden's last gasp of
58:50
trying to be, trying to be
58:52
tough? You need to, you need
58:54
to get to the back of
58:56
the line. You need to, we're
58:58
all waiting in line for a
59:01
water fountain. You just cut in
59:03
line with your friend. We caught
59:05
you. Get in the back of
59:07
the line. All right, Joe. Joe.
59:09
Yeah. The, the, the, the Ray
59:12
bands towards the end, I was
59:14
like, stop putting him in those,
59:16
please. They just look like the
59:18
gaps in a skull. They
59:24
just look like eye sockets. Oh
59:26
my god. Two black holes. So
59:28
do you think it was the
59:30
same match as you do think
59:32
Trump got a fresh fresh fresh
59:34
fresh I'm gonna say it fresh
59:36
linens that's yeah fresh linen fresh
59:38
linen fresh everything that's a waste.
59:40
I bet you I think of
59:42
the rider that celebrities get they
59:44
he has to be like it
59:46
has to be down to like
59:48
Donald likes Sharman ultrasound like yeah
59:51
to the tee pee yeah yeah
59:53
well remember the button Trump has
59:55
a button for a diet coke
59:57
button what about the meatloaf Remember
59:59
the meatloaf? No. He fell in
1:00:01
love with the meatloaf in his
1:00:03
first term. What? He was obsessed
1:00:05
with the White House meatloaf. He
1:00:07
was ordering it all the time.
1:00:09
Chris Christie came over for dinner
1:00:11
when they were on like, okay,
1:00:13
terms. And Chris Christie sits down
1:00:15
and Trump is just like, don't
1:00:17
worry, we'll have the meatloaf. He
1:00:19
was like Chris, you're having the
1:00:21
meat, it's unbelievable meatloaf. Unbelievable meatloaf.
1:00:23
You haven't had a meatloaf, this
1:00:25
meatloaf, this meatloaf will have the
1:00:27
meatloaf. This meatloaf will have the
1:00:29
meatloaf. This meatloaf will have the
1:00:32
unbelievable moaf. It's cannibalism in every
1:00:34
metric. A loaf of meat eating
1:00:36
a big thing of meat, come
1:00:38
on. Let me
1:00:40
ask you this Chris. Do you
1:00:42
think they gave me a new
1:00:44
mattress for my second term? What
1:00:46
do you think? What do you
1:00:48
think? What do you think? New
1:00:50
mattress? They probably like when he
1:00:52
left the first term they like
1:00:54
hit it and just orange dust
1:00:56
just sort of like cheetot off
1:00:58
of it. That's what I mean.
1:01:00
Like a like a maid brings
1:01:02
it out and they're hitting it
1:01:04
with flat wooden bath each term.
1:01:06
Wait, say it again? So like
1:01:08
Clinton, we're obviously, you know, magic
1:01:10
shelling off. Yeah, we're taking off
1:01:12
his white coating. Yes. You hit
1:01:14
it with a small hammer, like
1:01:17
cracking a hard boiled egg and
1:01:19
the fried cascades. And he's like,
1:01:21
wow, I guess I gist a
1:01:23
lot. It's like someone yelling inside
1:01:25
of a glacier. Jesus, this is
1:01:27
chipping everywhere. Run! Run! Oh no!
1:01:29
Flea! So you got that and
1:01:31
then you could do a run
1:01:33
of the president's. I don't know
1:01:35
what would be, but Trump obviously
1:01:37
the Cheeto dust. Biden, it would
1:01:39
be skin. I would sleep in
1:01:41
a bed that Obama slept in
1:01:43
without changing the sheets. I would
1:01:45
feel most comfortable. Yeah, if Barry
1:01:47
had been in the bed. Although,
1:01:49
you've got to think active sex
1:01:51
life, probably. Him and Michelle. Yes.
1:01:53
Yeah, with respect, do you mean...
1:01:55
Michelle, much respect. I would be
1:01:57
shocked if Barack Obama was cheating
1:01:59
on his wife. I don't think
1:02:01
he cheats. I don't think he
1:02:03
does either. No. I don't think
1:02:05
he did either. He uses that
1:02:07
tunnel that JFK put in for
1:02:09
the ladies. He used that to
1:02:11
jog in. A lady tunnel? He
1:02:13
had a lady tunnel. That's the
1:02:16
vagina. Yeah, that's what I mean.
1:02:18
Oh, cool. Oh yeah. Hillary's lady
1:02:20
tunnel. I love it. But he
1:02:22
can't. He can't help but laugh.
1:02:24
Well, wait, wait. But, but that's
1:02:26
the other president. Yeah, other president.
1:02:28
Oh, that's another question. Yeah. George
1:02:30
Washington. Dumb question alert, ready. Teeth.
1:02:32
Did teeth sleep in the White
1:02:34
House, right? Well, he had the
1:02:36
White House for the first president.
1:02:38
Because there was like a war
1:02:40
going on. I feel like he
1:02:42
slept in a tent. I don't
1:02:44
know if they had it. I
1:02:46
don't know. Don't make me ask
1:02:48
the robot. Katie, can you look
1:02:50
at one who the first president?
1:02:52
that's when the militias were a
1:02:54
real threat like you were armed
1:02:56
you could just go in like
1:02:58
this over John Adams, so fucking
1:03:00
Paul Giamatiamati was the first president
1:03:02
to sleep Not that I'm I'm
1:03:04
gonna need my own house. I
1:03:06
can't be sleeping in a tent.
1:03:08
The war's over. I want meatloaf
1:03:10
and I want my own mattress
1:03:12
And I'm not drinking any Yes,
1:03:15
you don't say it You don't
1:03:17
say that in a modern geomadi
1:03:19
you don't say I'm not doing
1:03:21
it. I don't do geomadi. You
1:03:23
imply it. You just bring the
1:03:25
teeth. So yeah, I won't do
1:03:27
that. I'm doing it. I won't
1:03:29
do it. You won't do it.
1:03:31
Yeah, you can't do geomadi. Oh,
1:03:33
you can't do Paul voice. Can't
1:03:35
do Dylan voice? You can't do
1:03:37
geomadi teeth. So. John Adams, here's
1:03:39
a fun one. Okay. I'm gonna
1:03:41
guess that John Adams was the...
1:03:43
Go. This is where we really
1:03:45
put ourselves on trial. Okay. This
1:03:47
is... Abraham Lincoln was what? The
1:03:49
seventh? See, this is an... I
1:03:51
don't know. I thought he was
1:03:53
the fifth because he's on the
1:03:55
five. Let me context... Honest to
1:03:57
God? No, I'm being real. I'm
1:03:59
not joking. I'm not joking. Well,
1:04:01
they did Washington on one. But
1:04:03
here's the problem. Six! Fucking nuts.
1:04:05
Everyone was screaming at their radio.
1:04:07
But what, he's like 1850 or
1:04:09
so, again. He was the... So,
1:04:12
yeah. So, when we had Abe
1:04:14
Lincoln, there had already been 16,
1:04:16
15 other presidents? Yeah. Losers, losers,
1:04:18
no one remembers. Nobody remembers. They're
1:04:20
not even on a token. It's
1:04:22
Lincoln and everybody else. It goes
1:04:24
Washington, Lincoln, FDA, me. Bingo, bingo,
1:04:26
meatloaf, eat it, Chrissy. Eat it,
1:04:28
I wanna watch you hunk it
1:04:30
down. He'll have two. He'll have
1:04:32
two. I can't tell where Chris
1:04:34
stops and the meat love starts.
1:04:36
You know he does this with
1:04:38
Chris Christie. Trump orders and the
1:04:40
meat love and then he goes,
1:04:42
he'll have an end piece and
1:04:44
he pets his belly. He'll have
1:04:46
the end piece. You know he
1:04:48
does that. I didn't even like
1:04:50
doing that. Let him lick the
1:04:52
ladle. Let him lick the ladlever.
1:04:54
You mixed it. Mama wants to
1:04:56
lick the beaters. He wants to
1:04:58
lick the beaters for the dessert
1:05:00
because he's for the dessert because
1:05:02
he's gonna lick him. Because he's
1:05:04
gonna lick him. He's gonna lick
1:05:06
him. He's gonna lick him. He's
1:05:08
gonna lick him. He's gonna lick
1:05:11
him. Nine times at a ten
1:05:13
you're going to find Chris in
1:05:15
a pitch black kitchen, you turn
1:05:17
the lights on, he's got his
1:05:19
tongue in the beat, he's caught.
1:05:21
You're just going to see a
1:05:23
bottom in the air and a
1:05:25
couple legs kicking inside of a
1:05:27
deep bowl. This guy's like a
1:05:29
raccoon for leftovers. He's a trash
1:05:31
panda, or a panda, as they'd
1:05:33
say, in Great Britain. He loves
1:05:35
the banana cream pudding. Trump doing
1:05:37
a British accent, great to be
1:05:39
here, great to be here. It's
1:05:41
honestly quite an honor. It's honestly
1:05:43
great. I've loved every minute of
1:05:45
it. It's the biggest... It's a
1:05:47
huge bend. From the time I've
1:05:49
got an off air force bloody
1:05:51
one mate. Unbelievable. It's an aeroplane.
1:05:53
What a shock. It's a shock.
1:05:55
I can't believe the Beatles made
1:05:57
their appearance on the Ed Sullivan
1:05:59
show a long time ago. I
1:06:01
want to hold you around, they
1:06:03
said, but it's not their and
1:06:05
is it. It's not their and.
1:06:07
At all. And there's something else
1:06:10
you want to hold. I said
1:06:12
it on the Access Hollywood bit.
1:06:14
I made a mistake. I made
1:06:16
a big mistake. I said grab
1:06:18
them by it. I didn't mean
1:06:20
it. Grab them by the Fanny.
1:06:22
Grab them by their Fanny. They're
1:06:24
front bam. I shouldn't have done
1:06:26
that. I shouldn't have done it.
1:06:28
That was a mistake. When he's
1:06:30
so British, he apologizes. Whopsy days.
1:06:32
Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. I can't
1:06:34
take that back, but I wish
1:06:36
I could. Oh my God, he's
1:06:38
on all the chat shows. He's
1:06:40
in the round. He's on Graham
1:06:42
Norton. He's on Graham Norton. Fuggin'
1:06:44
Billy Eilish is sitting next to
1:06:46
him. I shouldn't have said it.
1:06:48
You're on unbelievable. You are a
1:06:50
talent. Billy with an all-yeed. Now
1:06:52
I've seen everything. See it all.
1:06:54
That is one of my favorite
1:06:56
attempts to try to do like
1:06:58
celebrities with accents. It's so bizarrely
1:07:00
like my brain is like... I
1:07:02
did one on the dollop once
1:07:04
that was like... I think it
1:07:07
was English Rodney Dangerfield. It was
1:07:09
just like... Oh, this has happened
1:07:11
before? Well, ran like once or
1:07:13
twice where it's been like put
1:07:15
him like in like Italian travolta,
1:07:17
like deep Italian tavolta. But to,
1:07:19
this is what I was going
1:07:21
to say about the presidents. On
1:07:23
the dollop, like one of our
1:07:25
first episodes, Dave mentioned Benjamin Franklin.
1:07:27
And I don't remember what my
1:07:29
wording was, but I was like,
1:07:31
when he was president and Dave's
1:07:33
face was like, oh. And I
1:07:35
was like, what? Like I assume
1:07:37
because he was on money? Yeah,
1:07:39
yeah, yeah. He was president. No,
1:07:41
he was on our hundredth, most
1:07:43
likely. The fact, I'm gonna say,
1:07:45
there's a comparison to be made
1:07:47
here. Okay. The fact that Ben
1:07:49
Franklin is on the $100 bill
1:07:51
and wasn't a president. Shocking. Is
1:07:53
like, what? It's nuts. It's like
1:07:55
Sonic the Hedgehog is Disney now?
1:07:57
It really is... He's standing next
1:07:59
to Mickey Mouse? Because he's fast
1:08:01
and has floppy red shoes. Not
1:08:03
in my America. He's got carrot
1:08:06
red shoes, and he hangs out
1:08:08
with a freak fox with two
1:08:10
tails. And he lip, lip, lip,
1:08:12
lip. He's up in the air.
1:08:14
What's he doing up there? I
1:08:16
don't trust it. Knuckles. Knuckles is
1:08:18
Idris, Idris Elba. Idris Elbows, don't
1:08:20
fuck with him, he'll elbow you.
1:08:22
Right in the Billy eyelash. Popular.
1:08:24
There's one other president who is
1:08:26
on currency, one other person who's
1:08:28
on currency wasn't president, and I
1:08:30
think it's Hamilton. Hamilton wasn't? No.
1:08:32
Hamilton's on the 10. Yes. Oh,
1:08:34
Hamilton was never president. Right? But
1:08:36
because he has a musical, because
1:08:38
he's got a wonderful musical, Lin
1:08:40
Manuel. He was never president. Thank
1:08:42
God. But he was writing like
1:08:44
he was running out of time.
1:08:46
He was too busy wrapping. He
1:08:48
was on the road. He was
1:08:50
freestyle wrapping and he could have
1:08:52
been present, but he couldn't think
1:08:54
of something that rhymed with, I
1:08:56
do take these vows. I don't
1:08:58
know. Oath is a word you
1:09:00
can't rhyme. Oath is like orange.
1:09:02
It's like oats withered lisp. It's
1:09:05
been cumbersome for those of us
1:09:07
with normal time. Oth meal. Oth
1:09:09
meal. Oth meal. I got in
1:09:11
trouble for making oath mill in
1:09:13
my luggage. I didn't put my
1:09:15
hand on the Bible. Didn't want
1:09:17
people to smell the sizzle. That
1:09:19
was weird, right? Don't smell the
1:09:21
sizzle. Well, if there's anybody that
1:09:23
would jump on someone else for
1:09:25
not doing that. Yes. Yeah, the
1:09:27
conspiracy that would have come out
1:09:29
of that if Obama didn't do
1:09:31
that. Doesn't count. Well, he couldn't
1:09:33
touch it because of the dark.
1:09:35
It would burn. I hear now
1:09:37
are like, they need you to
1:09:39
humiliate yourself. Like when Mike Tyson
1:09:41
showed his ass, remember when his
1:09:43
ass was, they were like, well
1:09:45
that's the satanic church, that's the
1:09:47
oath that they're, the oath meal
1:09:49
that they're eating is like, he
1:09:51
has to humiliate himself. But like
1:09:53
you watch it and I'm like,
1:09:55
look, if Mike Tyson was like,
1:09:57
I gotta, I gotta throw my
1:09:59
ass. he did it so beautifully
1:10:01
so naturally it made me feel
1:10:04
very comfortable with my ass because
1:10:06
i was like yeah very this
1:10:08
is like a former professional athlete
1:10:10
has got a little yeah he's
1:10:12
got a dumpy he's got a
1:10:14
bit of a dumpy my butt
1:10:16
next to Tyson's butt you pick
1:10:18
my butt every time I would
1:10:20
love to have the opportunity to
1:10:22
see it go to our patron
1:10:24
page I'm just gonna leave you
1:10:26
want to see a picture of
1:10:28
my ass next to my Tyson's
1:10:30
that's that's the only thing on
1:10:32
your patriot it's eight dollars a
1:10:34
month and it's just this picture
1:10:36
forever And it's spelled P-A-Y, it's
1:10:38
like wrong. I just bought a
1:10:40
URL. Go to our Patreon. That's
1:10:42
what I think Patreon is. You
1:10:44
should have a Peterion. Peterion. Well
1:10:46
that goes back to Cameo. I
1:10:48
would like to do that for
1:10:50
people. But I wish there was
1:10:52
a, like if they needed a
1:10:54
cheer up or a birthday or
1:10:56
something like that. But I'd like
1:10:58
to find, and I have, like
1:11:01
sometimes, I was just gonna ask
1:11:03
people of video or something. Yep.
1:11:05
But like I wish we could.
1:11:07
I can't figure it out. It
1:11:09
would be great to be like
1:11:11
if you want to send back
1:11:13
money, but it just feels so
1:11:15
weird. Here's what you could, because
1:11:17
that's what I do sometimes as
1:11:19
I go, like I'm like, what
1:11:21
is the line? Because you're not
1:11:23
on cameo for the reasons we
1:11:25
talked about, as well as you're
1:11:27
just like, I don't really want
1:11:29
to sit around and just like,
1:11:31
make five minute videos that are
1:11:33
just like, that's so hilarious that
1:11:35
your thumb hurts, you know, you
1:11:37
know, like, like, like, like, like,
1:11:39
but what is what I thought
1:11:41
about what I thought about doing,
1:11:43
Was like I'll do it for
1:11:45
a month like when I had
1:11:47
like a slow month be like
1:11:49
I'll do it for a month
1:11:51
and I'm putting it all towards
1:11:53
charity Yeah, till like then animal
1:11:55
fund like save the cultures or
1:11:57
whatever. Yeah, and then and then
1:12:00
Yanking the plug. Oh and then
1:12:02
you're done. Then I'm done. Yeah, I,
1:12:04
that. But then you, the problem
1:12:06
is that people will, not the
1:12:08
problem, but it's like, it's just
1:12:10
like anything. It's like, if, if
1:12:12
you start doing that often, then people go,
1:12:14
oh, he does it for free. And, you
1:12:17
know, it's like, I had one person be
1:12:19
like, you make a birthday video for my
1:12:21
partner. So I was like, all right, happy
1:12:23
birthday, I have a birthday, whatever, whatever. I
1:12:25
was like, I'm sorry, you got two close
1:12:27
ones. So you got two closies, that'll be
1:12:29
good enough, I think. That is so funny.
1:12:32
You know, it made me think of something,
1:12:34
but I'm going to keep it to myself.
1:12:36
It's about Brabiglia. We both got asked to do a
1:12:38
video. And the, well, now I'm just saying it. The reason
1:12:40
he didn't do it is he's like, yeah, I'm just saying
1:12:42
it. He's like, I don't want to do it, and I
1:12:44
was like, and I was like, and I was like, and
1:12:46
I was like, and I was like, because, because with the
1:12:48
internet, because with the internet and I, because with the
1:12:50
internet and I, because with the internet and
1:12:52
I, If you make a video, they can
1:12:54
make it so you're saying anything. And I
1:12:56
was like, there's enough footage of you, we
1:12:59
can do that already. You're quite prolific. I
1:13:01
was like, just say you don't want to
1:13:03
do it. You don't have to be like,
1:13:05
the AI risk. That's one of those ones
1:13:07
where you just got a bad, you're right.
1:13:09
That's all I said. I was like, I'm
1:13:12
not going to push it. There's got to
1:13:14
be a word for that when someone gives
1:13:16
an excuse that isn't right, that isn't right.
1:13:18
Yeah, but isn't right. It's the safe
1:13:20
word. Yeah, you're just you're not
1:13:22
really saying raspberries. Yes, yes You're
1:13:24
in fear. Yes, I understand you
1:13:26
have a phobia You're living in
1:13:28
fear. Yes living in fear that
1:13:30
but I definitely feel that we're
1:13:32
like there are times when you
1:13:35
work with people where you go
1:13:37
like okay Yeah, yeah, I just
1:13:39
got let that go every once
1:13:41
in a while you just have
1:13:43
to go. That's just what's happening.
1:13:45
Yeah, can you sing the theme
1:13:47
song from living single? You can.
1:13:49
In a 90s kind of world. I'm
1:13:51
glad I've got my girls. Keep your
1:13:54
head up. There's like a rap part
1:13:56
I don't remember. I don't do the
1:13:58
rap. I don't. I don't
1:14:01
do the rap. I'm not left-eye.
1:14:03
I'm not Lisa left. He knows
1:14:05
all of it. I'm not Lisa
1:14:07
left-eye Lopez. Rest in peace. Shut
1:14:09
up, Teabas, chili. Teep. Try the
1:14:11
chili. I'll do family matters. Or
1:14:14
wait, no, full house. Whatever happened
1:14:16
to respectability. Predictability. Or respectability. Hold
1:14:18
on, I'm gonna stop the piano
1:14:20
for a minute, because I have
1:14:22
a thought on respect. Respect. Did
1:14:24
Chappelle get in trouble for saying
1:14:27
that Reginald, the guy who played
1:14:29
the dad, was having sex with
1:14:31
Puffie? Like, after, remember, did you
1:14:33
watch the S&L monologue? No, I
1:14:35
didn't. Oh, in the S&L monologue,
1:14:37
he like alludes to, he says,
1:14:40
like, I saw it on the
1:14:42
internet, which means it's probably not
1:14:44
true, but then he's like, but
1:14:46
I don't know, and that he's
1:14:48
like, somebody walked in a room
1:14:50
and Puffie was having sex with
1:14:53
the dad from the dad from
1:14:55
family matters, from Family Matters. You
1:14:57
mean run with that one? Yeah,
1:14:59
for family matter. That would be
1:15:01
the ripple effect. Whatever happened to
1:15:03
predictability. The milkman, what happened to
1:15:05
the milkman? He used to bring
1:15:08
the milk. This guy. This guy
1:15:10
knew. Forgotten milkman. There would be
1:15:12
missing people on it. Actually, the
1:15:14
glass one didn't give a fuck
1:15:16
about helping with any investigation. The
1:15:18
glass one was like, I'll keep
1:15:21
your milk cold. I don't want
1:15:23
to get involved. Carton is like,
1:15:25
I'll help. Carton's like, look, I'll
1:15:27
be around for a while. This
1:15:29
kid's gone. Help. Can you help?
1:15:31
Have you seen this kid? I
1:15:34
can't even see him. I'm a
1:15:36
carton. I look from the inside.
1:15:38
I'm in a milky darkness. I
1:15:40
mean, I looked from the inside.
1:15:42
I mean, I looked inside the
1:15:44
carton for an hour and a
1:15:47
half one day. So I don't
1:15:49
know what kind of prize. Oh
1:15:51
my god. A
1:15:54
milky dark man. Did you know the
1:15:56
Matrix was actually based on a Philip
1:15:58
K Dick book called The Milky Dark?
1:16:00
This show is sponsored by Better Help.
1:16:03
You've heard me talk a lot about
1:16:05
Better Help because I love talk therapy.
1:16:07
It is actively improved, enhanced, and changed
1:16:09
my life for the better. You hear
1:16:11
a lot of people out there talking
1:16:14
about red flags. Look out for these
1:16:16
red flags in your relationships with your
1:16:18
friendships at work, whatever it might be.
1:16:20
We don't talk enough about green flags.
1:16:22
Where the green flags, the things that
1:16:25
you want to have in your life,
1:16:27
that's one of the things that therapy
1:16:29
can cultivate and bring out and help
1:16:31
you recognize. In romantic relationships, in your
1:16:33
friendships, in your work relationships, what are
1:16:36
the things that we should be calling
1:16:38
green flags and help increase and embody
1:16:40
that green flag energy in yourself? and
1:16:42
identify it in others. Whether you're dating,
1:16:44
married, building a friendship, or just working
1:16:47
on yourself, it's time to form relationships
1:16:49
that love you back. Let's get some
1:16:51
green flags. You guys know, talk therapy
1:16:53
is greater than the sum of its
1:16:55
parts. It's not just talking. It's talking
1:16:58
to a trained professional who knows how
1:17:00
to gently nudge you in different directions
1:17:02
to bring out the best. Get over
1:17:04
that codependence. Set up that boundary with
1:17:06
that family member. Find that self-love that
1:17:09
says, yes, I deserve this, this, and
1:17:11
this, and I'm going to go for
1:17:13
it. It is absolutely revolutionized both my
1:17:15
life and Valerie's life. That's why it
1:17:17
comes up so much on this podcast.

1:17:44
also brought to us by our friend
1:17:46
at Modern Mammals, just the quickest little
1:17:48
mention here. I hate shampoo. It makes
1:17:50
your hair look like a fucking tumbleweed
1:17:53
rolling through a western facade movie set.
1:17:55
Not even a real one. Looks like
1:17:57
garbage. Your hair gets fried out. It's
1:17:59
unruly. Modern mammals is the only shampoo
1:18:01
that I like. It's the only one
1:18:04
that I use. You put it through
1:18:06
your hair and it kind of feels
1:18:08
like you went to the beach that
1:18:10
day. It's got a little bit of
1:18:12
control. It left enough of that natural
1:18:15
oil in your hair to make it
1:18:17
manageable and give it a try. If
1:18:19
you're anything like me, you will love
1:18:21
it and there's no going back. Modern
1:18:23
mammals.com/weird. See, that could go on stage
1:18:26
as well, but that's not as... Yeah,
1:18:28
I'm a bit of a walk, but
1:18:30
still... I'm not even sure about the
1:18:32
mattress one if I'm being on us.
1:18:34
I think it might have been best
1:18:37
performed here today. There's a lot of
1:18:39
those, for sure. Where are you on
1:18:41
new material now? New material? I think
1:18:43
I have about... I think I have
1:18:45
about 30 minutes. Okay. I just filmed
1:18:48
my new hour in Portland. Oh, you
1:18:50
just did? Yeah, about three weeks ago.
1:18:52
Oh, wow. Oh, that's where? At the
1:18:54
Aladdin. Oh, it's great. Yeah, it was,
1:18:56
and it's great. We're actually editing it
1:18:59
tomorrow morning. And, you know, towards the
1:19:01
end of the tour, you start working
1:19:03
in the new stuff. Yeah. There's a
1:19:05
lot of like, here's a lot of
1:19:07
like. record-keeping for me. I didn't always
1:19:10
do this but you need to like
1:19:12
have documents that say like what did
1:19:14
you do last time you were in
1:19:16
this city and then you go okay
1:19:18
and then you swap out some stuff
1:19:21
and do the the new 30 in
1:19:23
the middle and then you so next
1:19:25
time you go you can't do that
1:19:27
so you better have a new new
1:19:29
30 so there's all these like No,
1:19:32
it's like it's like alternate timelines. That's
1:19:34
what I'll listen and I'll be like
1:19:36
okay. Yeah, that's yeah I can't I
1:19:38
and it'll be like I'll be up
1:19:40
so be like Jesus crazy been doing
1:19:43
this forever. Yeah, and there's some of
1:19:45
those too. You're really like I can't
1:19:47
believe I was doing that joke. Or
1:19:49
your bench players. Have you already used
1:19:51
your bench players there? I'm trying to
1:19:54
retire my bench players because when you
1:19:56
bring up a thing, you do an
1:19:58
hour, usually there's guys that you call
1:20:00
off the bench. You're like, well, we
1:20:02
need you again. Yep. And there are
1:20:05
certain jokes that I've done every time
1:20:07
after my hour taping. And I'm not
1:20:09
doing that this year. So you're going
1:20:11
all new. I'm going all new and
1:20:13
it feels so good. It really is
1:20:16
the best feeling. I forget who said
1:20:18
this, but it really changed my life.
1:20:20
Somebody was like, if you're feeling stuck
1:20:22
in stand-up, like you just don't love
1:20:24
it anymore, they were like, write a
1:20:27
new joke and try it. And I
1:20:29
was like, that's exactly correct. That to
1:20:31
me is like... That's where because the
1:20:33
gains you see in like that first
1:20:35
like month or six weeks of like
1:20:38
how you're making it better Even if
1:20:40
it ends up not working. Yeah, you
1:20:42
have a project like you have a
1:20:44
little focus. You're like I got this
1:20:46
guy I really want this guy to
1:20:49
work. Yep. And then you get really
1:20:51
excited and then when he starts working
1:20:53
and you're going oh I catch myself
1:20:55
smiling for no reason like in a
1:20:57
good you know when you wake up
1:21:00
and you remember you wake up and
1:21:02
you have to break up with your
1:21:04
girlfriend or you know I have the
1:21:06
opposite when I have a new bit
1:21:08
that I'm like excited about. You'll catch
1:21:11
yourself smiling. Or thinking or going, oh,
1:21:13
that'd be good. Totally. And I want
1:21:15
to write them out. I love writing
1:21:17
out all the new bits and how
1:21:19
I just last night I was writing
1:21:22
out how two jokes go together. And
1:21:24
I was like, oh my God, it's
1:21:26
happening. And I'm trying something new and
1:21:28
I want to put this to you.
1:21:30
Meaning, what are your thoughts, obviously? I'm
1:21:33
like, this hour, I want to have
1:21:35
like, kind of an intent for it,
1:21:37
like a flavor. You all have different
1:21:39
colors and flavors. And this one is
1:21:41
shaping up to be really silly and
1:21:44
playful and really fun and pleasant to
1:21:46
perform. And I'm like, I hope I
1:21:48
can keep this up. Like the hour
1:21:50
I just did, there were a couple
1:21:52
bits that I'm like, how am I
1:21:55
going to do this one? Like there's
1:21:57
so many, this is a brag, but
1:21:59
there's so many parts acting out. There's
1:22:01
so much yelling. And I'm just like,
1:22:03
so on the last night of the
1:22:06
weekend when I would do that joke,
1:22:08
and on the new hour, it was
1:22:10
Q-tips and take off your shoes and
1:22:12
they were together. And boy, they're like
1:22:14
frenzy jokes. They're like, I'm spinning plates.
1:22:17
And that's the fun. This new hour
1:22:19
is very like, it's more like, just
1:22:21
talking about it. It's fun. I think,
1:22:23
you know what's funny is like, when
1:22:25
you get those more complicated longer runs.
1:22:28
and they kill you're like fuck yeah
1:22:30
but when they don't you're like well
1:22:32
i was a lot of chatting for
1:22:34
you guys to watch me drink water
1:22:36
now because i finished that that's right
1:22:39
yeah like and it's over because i've
1:22:41
stopped speaking yes not because it was
1:22:43
good i have one joke where i'm
1:22:45
like like i'll get like either the
1:22:47
like clap for him or like which
1:22:50
you know and i'll go that applause
1:22:52
i can tell is based on you're
1:22:54
like wow that monkey dancing a lot
1:22:56
for a banana a banana like Because
1:22:58
I'm like, because I'm like, yeah, I
1:23:01
got that a high velocity with a
1:23:03
high rate for a while and you're
1:23:05
really nailing it. In Stand Up, if
1:23:07
there's anything that's vulnerable and unpleasant, it's
1:23:09
when you're in the middle of a
1:23:12
joke that requires a lot of performance,
1:23:14
a lot of words, and a lot
1:23:16
of volume, and it's not really working.
1:23:18
And you know, normally, I've got people
1:23:20
with me here. And you're not there
1:23:23
right now, so. And especially, and then
1:23:25
if you're me, and let's say, I
1:23:27
have some jokes about my parents or
1:23:29
something, I'm like, oh, they're thinking I'm
1:23:31
a bad son or something. Like I
1:23:34
have moments like that. Or like, where
1:23:36
they disagree with me. Yeah. Like, Val
1:23:38
is so good at this. She's like,
1:23:40
Pete, they were just taking a break.
1:23:42
Or they were just tired or you
1:23:45
forgot to say this line and no
1:23:47
one knew what the fuck you were
1:23:49
talking about. it's so different like it's
1:23:51
like when you do like i did
1:23:53
a bigger room on my last run
1:23:56
like i mostly do clubs and i
1:23:58
did like a bigger room and i
1:24:00
was like i i definitely was like
1:24:02
don't talk about how you I feel
1:24:04
like you're bombing a lot. Yeah, but
1:24:07
a couple times I was like talking
1:24:09
about it and it was just because
1:24:11
the room was so big that the
1:24:13
laughs leave so quickly. Oh in the
1:24:15
big room you felt like you were
1:24:18
bombing. Yes. Yes. I'll say that yes.
1:24:20
Which you probably because you're your theaters
1:24:22
only. No, no, I'm not. Oh, are
1:24:24
you I'm alternating all the time. In
1:24:26
fact, the night before. Portland. We were
1:24:29
in Seattle and where were we there?
1:24:31
I forget what it's called. I'm so
1:24:33
sorry, but it's where the even flow
1:24:35
video was. There you go. We watched
1:24:37
that backstage and we're like, I can't
1:24:40
believe I'm like following even flow. Yeah,
1:24:42
in your head. In my mind, that's
1:24:44
the only thing that's happened there. Yes.
1:24:46
Even flow and then it was me.
1:24:48
Yeah. But I really, you know, 90s
1:24:51
kid, I couldn't believe Nirvana had been
1:24:53
there and Pearl Jam and I was
1:24:55
like, this is insane. So I was
1:24:57
really into it. But that was about
1:24:59
$1,700 or something, which is really big
1:25:02
for me. And we went out and
1:25:04
to me, it's like, you go in
1:25:06
slower, hand in pocket, try not to
1:25:08
yell too much and go slow and
1:25:10
let them laugh. It takes a while.
1:25:13
It's like. Drying your bed sheets. It
1:25:15
just takes longer. Club is like your
1:25:17
hand washing a sock in the river.
1:25:19
This is like a machine washing fitted
1:25:21
sheet. So you just have to go
1:25:24
slower. But then we had such a
1:25:26
great time and we were like, holy
1:25:28
shit, 700 people, it's great. Like they're
1:25:30
really giving it up. Then we go
1:25:32
to the Aladdin, which is, I don't
1:25:35
know. 13 maybe? What do you think?
1:25:37
I think it's less. I think it's
1:25:39
like a thousand. Okay. And we were
1:25:41
like, wow. There's a big difference It
1:25:43
felt more like a club in a
1:25:46
good way, too, but I had to
1:25:48
stay on top of them I hope
1:25:50
this is interesting, but I was like
1:25:52
wow Even in a theater you can
1:25:54
still feel scrappy and you can still
1:25:57
feel It's not orating yet at 1700.
1:25:59
I felt like I was orating. Yeah,
1:26:01
right is the punch line. Yeah, and
1:26:03
there were enough people to carry it
1:26:05
small theater. You can still feel like
1:26:08
you're bombing and yet you have to
1:26:10
like pick up the pace all the
1:26:12
tricks you would do in a club
1:26:14
yeah it is it's real it's so
1:26:16
weird it's like I do like the
1:26:19
clubs I go to for the most
1:26:21
part I'm like okay yeah I can
1:26:23
like I can tell what's going on
1:26:25
yeah I have a much better pulse
1:26:27
of the room those bigger rooms you
1:26:30
start going like you'd you I always,
1:26:32
because I started staying up kind of
1:26:34
late, so I watched stand up for
1:26:36
a while, and I would always be
1:26:38
like, why is this guy talking about
1:26:41
how he's bombing? He's not bombing. Yes.
1:26:43
You know, and I'd be like, don't
1:26:45
do that. Or, you know. You're taking
1:26:47
a page right from my book. Before
1:26:49
I go out, I'm not going, I'm
1:26:52
trying to think positive. In any way.
1:26:54
And the bombing to me is if
1:26:56
I'm like, that usually does better, in
1:26:58
some version that comes out, that's actually
1:27:00
bombing. It's not silence, it's I've gotten
1:27:03
sour in some way. I think there's
1:27:05
like, it's funny because I will do
1:27:07
it from time to time, but it's
1:27:09
like, if you do it too much,
1:27:11
like after the show, like when I'm
1:27:14
selling merch or whatever, like. People will
1:27:16
if people start going like sorry about
1:27:18
the audience. That's when I'm like I
1:27:20
fucking push this way too. Like I
1:27:22
was like I was having fun. I
1:27:25
was like joking around about it to
1:27:27
you Again, that is very good. They're
1:27:29
like they're doing their best Yeah, you'll
1:27:31
it's so much better for me in
1:27:33
those moments to acknowledge them in some
1:27:36
way that shows that you're aware of
1:27:38
them but not in a negative yeah
1:27:40
I think that's always you can be
1:27:42
like I don't you guys weren't sure
1:27:44
about that one or maybe you were
1:27:47
I don't know I don't know you
1:27:49
guys like I have all these save
1:27:51
lines where I'm like you guys haven't
1:27:53
been an audience before like yeah right
1:27:55
in this exact assemblage you're figuring it
1:27:58
out and then afterwards then they like
1:28:00
really come alive because they're like oh
1:28:02
he's looking at us and so you're
1:28:04
looking at me I'm looking I did
1:28:06
a show in a show in Minneapolis
1:28:09
a couple of a couple weeks 30
1:28:11
people and they were the first like
1:28:13
three rows oh well and so it
1:28:15
was weird because it was like yeah
1:28:17
you don't want them it felt like
1:28:20
an away game and and so I
1:28:22
was like I could tell like they
1:28:24
knew each other that they knew each
1:28:26
other and that one guy was like
1:28:28
this is the best and that 29
1:28:31
people were like sell us and it
1:28:33
was definitely like a good lesson at
1:28:35
being like stay in the pocket. It's
1:28:37
true. Don't. I think it's a meditative
1:28:39
thing. It's like, stay in your own
1:28:42
truth. Yes. The other thing, stick to
1:28:44
the plan. You don't, you know how
1:28:46
on an airplane you're not allowed to
1:28:48
congregate? Yeah. It's like, not anymore. Ugh.
1:28:50
You mean like pre-9? Everyone was forming
1:28:53
clicks. Yeah, now everything's a cell. Pre-9
1:28:55
though, you could, remember? We'd have little
1:28:57
clumps. You'd click out. Remember. Remember that?
1:28:59
Pre-9 I'm in the, I'm going all
1:29:01
the way to the back, hanging out
1:29:04
with the people that don't respond. Pre-9,
1:29:06
I'll hang out near the shitter! Pre-9,
1:29:08
I'm just lingering. Pre-9! In first class,
1:29:10
I'm not in there. I'd use the
1:29:12
front shitter, there was no flight attendant,
1:29:15
I'd use the front shitter, there was
1:29:17
no flight attendant, I'd use the front
1:29:19
shitter, there was no flight attendant, I
1:29:21
know it's on auto. Now
1:29:23
if the pilot's got to take his
1:29:26
shit, God forbid! Can I ask you
1:29:28
a question? Why did we have autopilot
1:29:30
in airplanes before we had it in
1:29:32
cars? That seems crazy. It's crazy. I
1:29:35
mean, it's, I guess there's nothing up
1:29:37
there. Yeah, that's why. There's no traffic
1:29:39
lights. You're asking a lot of, I
1:29:41
mean, it was like, it's also the
1:29:44
long stretch. Yeah, it's a long stretch.
1:29:46
I don't think the pilots wanted us
1:29:48
to know about how much the auto.
1:29:51
There's a lot more than just putting
1:29:53
on the auto pilot. Oh, we're talking.
1:29:55
But up there they're up there reading
1:29:57
husser up. I feel like I feel
1:30:00
like Pilots love pornography. I feel like
1:30:02
they're into it and they definitely have
1:30:04
projectors. Oh boy, he's just like, look,
1:30:07
now you got a bank happy, you know that
1:30:09
right? Final projector thought, get over the
1:30:11
stigma, get one in the wall and
1:30:13
you don't need a screen, it just
1:30:15
needs to be dark, and now you're
1:30:17
playing any video game and it's the
1:30:19
greatest thing you've ever done in your
1:30:21
life. I think you have, you think
1:30:23
I'm judging you think I'm judging you,
1:30:25
but that I would call projectionist. I'm
1:30:28
really sorry. Like racist? No,
1:30:30
no, like you're projecting and there's
1:30:33
a long walk. I liked it
1:30:35
for a moment. For a moment.
1:30:37
For a moment you were for
1:30:39
a mint. For a mint mento.
1:30:41
For a mint mento. Would you
1:30:44
do it for a mint mento?
1:30:46
Would you do it for a mint
1:30:48
mento? I don't know. I had a
1:30:50
fruit mento under two months ago. Get
1:30:53
back in. I don't know what I don't
1:30:55
know what you got you to
1:30:57
leave. Can I ask you something?
1:31:00
Get back. Skittles is out there
1:31:02
driving a Ferrari. Mentos is over
1:31:04
at the fucking Vons. Well look,
1:31:07
Skittles, you can dislocate the job.
1:31:09
Mentos is like a slow, delicious
1:31:11
cloud bite. It seems like a
1:31:13
medicine that heals unhappiness. I'm not
1:31:16
going to push back too hard
1:31:18
on that. I will say, on
1:31:20
it being a little medicinal. on
1:31:23
the mentos having the vibe of like it.
1:31:25
It comes in like an orange tube and
1:31:27
you can't open it. It's a quality. But
1:31:29
I will say. There should be a safety
1:31:31
seal on a mento. I don't agree. I
1:31:33
think get back involved. Try a fruit
1:31:35
mentos. No, I'm with you. Are you?
1:31:38
When I say municipal. No, no, no.
1:31:40
I'm saying Skittles is out there,
1:31:42
King Dick. Okay. And Mentos is
1:31:44
like, I'm a huge Skittle. Skittles.
1:31:46
I relate to Mentos a lot.
1:31:48
I'm like, I'm out here slinging
1:31:50
delicious fruit candy. I'm going to
1:31:52
everybody's buying Skittle tickets. Okay, you
1:31:54
bring me in. I'm a fixer.
1:31:57
I'm like the wolf and pulpiction.
1:31:59
Yeah, yeah. to be fucking shinier.
1:32:01
Yeah. Why is it so dull?
1:32:03
Yeah. This dull pale orange. Yeah.
1:32:05
It's like orange was dying and
1:32:07
it was like, Mentos? And then
1:32:09
it was gone. Because this is
1:32:11
what Mentos was like, look, we
1:32:13
don't want to put so much
1:32:15
god damn coloring. It's the taste.
1:32:17
No, no, no. And Skittles was
1:32:19
like, we invented a new blue. And
1:32:22
new blue is winning all the way.
1:32:24
Tropical Skittles. Excepting. I want this. color
1:32:26
like the way you would paint a
1:32:28
car you want yes orange you want
1:32:31
the sheen too you want a slick
1:32:33
and it could be a little bit
1:32:35
harder pau I'm saying you can take your
1:32:38
current inventory of mentos and
1:32:40
put the sheen and the game around
1:32:42
it but they but again I mean
1:32:44
they're what they're from Belgium where they
1:32:46
that's what I mean you can tell
1:32:48
there's something they were just like a
1:32:50
guy like but why would we do
1:32:52
that is American's that would make no
1:32:55
sense it's like look they trust
1:32:57
us Give it the Ferrari
1:32:59
glean. There's something Italian cookie
1:33:01
about mentos. And when I
1:33:03
say it, potentially, I'm
1:33:05
not, I'm not. You know Italian
1:33:07
cookies? It's like, what is this, flour
1:33:09
and nutmeg? Like, why is it done?
1:33:11
Have we finished? I think you guys
1:33:14
put out a half done batch. When
1:33:16
you're a kid and you eat an
1:33:18
Italian cookie, your dad's like, we're going
1:33:20
to the best bakery at town. It's
1:33:22
like a snowflake and you eat it
1:33:24
and you're like, what, that's safe? Yeah.
1:33:26
And then like the other option is
1:33:28
like, Biscati, it's burned. It's all
1:33:30
or nothing. When you have an American
1:33:32
cookie, and is there anything, look, I'm
1:33:35
gonna say chocolate chip has lapped Apple
1:33:37
pie as the official pie as
1:33:39
the official. treat of America without
1:33:41
question. If you eat a fucking
1:33:43
butter sugar chocolate explosion that's crisp
1:33:46
and flat and you're fucking jizzing.
1:33:48
Yeah. And then you eat an
1:33:50
Italian cookie? Yeah. I agree. I think,
1:33:52
you know, honestly, I like Thai food. I
1:33:54
went to Thailand. I ate the Thai food.
1:33:56
I was like, I hate to be this
1:33:58
guy. But the American. You guys aren't doing
1:34:01
it right. You tell you where I'm
1:34:03
from. You tie-splined? I tie-splaid. I did.
1:34:05
I did. Let me tie-splend this to
1:34:07
you. Well no, America takes a lot
1:34:09
of cuisines. And it's a lot of
1:34:11
sugar. Well we're putting sugar in the
1:34:13
pasta sauce. I put that in, but
1:34:15
I was like, even your consistency, Thailand?
1:34:17
Well, in defense of the Italian cookie,
1:34:19
cookie cookie, cookie, that's Netflix. Yeah. And
1:34:21
we like Netflix. I want to be
1:34:23
able to scroll on the phone and
1:34:25
have them shout who everyone is four
1:34:27
to five times. An Italian cookie you
1:34:29
eat it and you have like a
1:34:31
memory. Yeah, and you're like, yeah, and
1:34:33
you're like, we should go for a
1:34:35
walk after this. I want to go
1:34:38
in a biscuit coma. That's what I
1:34:40
want when I need to cookie here.
1:34:42
I want to be like, oh my
1:34:44
god, I just yelled at my dad
1:34:46
for no reason. I got a nap.
1:34:48
Why did I just say fuck off
1:34:50
to one of one of my parents?
1:34:52
What time cookie you go on a
1:34:54
walk after? Or you journal. Yeah, yeah,
1:34:56
yeah. You play some light piano. I'm
1:34:58
gonna leave my phone inside and sit
1:35:00
on the porch. Yeah, watch the sky
1:35:02
because I actually have less dopamine. I'm
1:35:04
feeling good. I feel good. I ate
1:35:06
real food. It is, there's a sunset
1:35:08
quality to an Italian cookie. Whereas here.
1:35:10
An American cookie is like, after you
1:35:12
eat this, all day you're gonna be
1:35:14
chasing. I'm gonna delete all my spam.
1:35:16
After you eat a yeah, you're like
1:35:19
full of like a weird project. Yes,
1:35:21
everything Americans eat is to motivate Asa
1:35:23
and banal and then you go in
1:35:25
the I it's how I feel about
1:35:27
coffee. I drink a lot of coffee
1:35:29
was invented for people that are like
1:35:31
looming and then I go working a
1:35:33
loom and then not not how confusing
1:35:35
is the guy in charge of the
1:35:37
loomers. He's over him. He's looming. No,
1:35:39
he's not. No, I mean he's like
1:35:41
leer never He's looming over the loomers.
1:35:43
He looms over the loomers. Who's the
1:35:45
guy who's watching the loomers? If you're
1:35:47
a supervisor of the room of people
1:35:49
looming. You are looming. Speaking of loomrooms.
1:35:51
You might be herending. You forget who
1:35:53
he is. It's worse than we thought.
1:35:55
If you're doing this voice with this
1:35:57
premise, you might just be Jerry Seinfeld.
1:36:00
Jerry. Me and Kumel used to do,
1:36:02
you did colleges coming up? I'm assuming,
1:36:05
no, no. Well, it won't be as
1:36:07
fun, but we used to do. I'm
1:36:09
aware. Jeff Foxworthy, you might have a
1:36:11
comedian on your campus, and we were
1:36:13
like, if you see a guy in
1:36:16
a rental car drinking a holiday in
1:36:18
express coffee, rolling down his window and
1:36:20
asking you where the student center is.
1:36:22
You just might have a comedian on
1:36:24
your campus. That's so good. I okay
1:36:27
I had an audition once you remember
1:36:29
You might have leapfrogged this because you
1:36:31
because on your show you were I
1:36:33
know you like sketches But how many
1:36:36
sketch show auditions did you have to
1:36:38
do I've never done a sketch see
1:36:40
because I think you leapfrogged it so
1:36:42
what I would I would get a
1:36:44
lot of them Because I was doing
1:36:47
a lot of sketch so I'd get
1:36:49
a lot of and so I'd have
1:36:51
to come in with my characters Oh,
1:36:53
and I had like my fucking characters
1:36:55
and then British Trump is a new
1:36:58
one British Trump would be great, but
1:37:00
I'm telling you it's it's a rarefied
1:37:02
bomb Yeah, like in a room doing
1:37:04
a sketch character and these people like
1:37:07
I hate sketch now and so you're
1:37:09
like at a room. You're it's everything's
1:37:11
it's not ever going well, but the
1:37:13
two best ones were okay so one
1:37:15
time it was for the blue-collar comedy
1:37:18
comedy sketch show and I came up
1:37:20
with John Foxworthy, Jeff Foxworthy's brother, and
1:37:22
he was just jealous of Jeff's career.
1:37:24
So his was all like, if you
1:37:26
refer to your mother's womb as a
1:37:29
one-hit wonder, you just might be John
1:37:31
Foxworthy. So I had a similar adjacent
1:37:33
one. And then this was the best
1:37:35
one. Wait, he's acknowledging that he's the
1:37:38
dead? Yes. His whole bit is how
1:37:40
Jeff Foxworthy's crushed it. And he's in
1:37:42
the shadow. Yeah, I thought it was
1:37:44
amazing. Like Roger Clinton. Like a Roger
1:37:46
Clinton. A Roger Clinton. Yeah, right. Yeah.
1:37:49
I was just Jeff Foxworthy's done everything.
1:37:51
John is depressed. Yes. And I had
1:37:53
like three. four of those and it
1:37:55
just bombed. But, well I love it.
1:37:57
Do you remember when David Hasselhoff ate
1:38:00
the burger off the floor? Yeah, of
1:38:02
course. Again, now we probably can't make
1:38:04
fun of it. But back then, oh.
1:38:06
Boy, can you imagine? We interneted. We
1:38:09
interneted hard. We had a good time.
1:38:11
We had a good time. We had
1:38:13
a good time with that. Put the
1:38:15
Baywatch theme under it. I was on
1:38:17
a, on Best Week ever at that
1:38:20
time, and that was just one of
1:38:22
the hilarious talking points. It was. Just
1:38:24
like, play the video of a man.
1:38:26
And being broken. A big problem. Where's
1:38:28
Bodie? Uh-oh! Some people eat in the
1:38:31
darkness. Yeah, it was like, I afraid
1:38:33
to choke on the next bite. I
1:38:35
just wanted to play. What's funny is
1:38:37
if you play this in slow motion,
1:38:40
it's actually quite sexy. Play it backwards
1:38:42
and he barfs up a burger. So
1:38:44
I went in and I, it had
1:38:46
just happened where he did that. So
1:38:48
I thought, all right, because I didn't
1:38:51
have a third, fourth character, whatever. So
1:38:53
I was like, all right, I'll just
1:38:55
do David Hauslawf eating a burger off
1:38:57
the floor intoxicated, you know, you know,
1:38:59
So I went and got a burger
1:39:02
and I brought a Wendy's cheeseburger because
1:39:04
that's what he was eating. And I
1:39:06
go in. It was. Wendy's was like,
1:39:08
we need to distance ourselves. We have
1:39:11
a little. We also have sober people
1:39:13
eat our burgers. So just so everyone
1:39:15
knows. I didn't know Wendy's was like
1:39:17
fallible. Like it seems like it's like
1:39:19
an eraser. Like it's like a, you
1:39:22
know how kids have like fun hamburger
1:39:24
erasers. That burger was so like cascading
1:39:26
like the. It was validating to the
1:39:28
tomato. It was. It was like, we
1:39:30
can chunk. We can chunk, and the
1:39:33
tomato is a separate entity. The whole
1:39:35
thing is, it's actually been constructed, believe
1:39:37
it or not. It can fall apart.
1:39:39
Separate plastic bags. So I get the
1:39:42
burger and I go in and I'm
1:39:44
like, I'll do this at last, because
1:39:46
I was like, it's like just happened.
1:39:48
So whatever, I do with my characters,
1:39:50
I'm bombing at the sketch audition. And
1:39:53
then I'm like, my last one's David
1:39:55
Hasselhoff. And I took my shirt off
1:39:57
like he did. And I got down
1:39:59
on the ground and like the camera
1:40:01
guy was like, this is highly unorthodox.
1:40:04
And he's putting the camera like towards
1:40:06
the ground. And then I was just
1:40:08
eating the burger off the ground. And
1:40:10
there were like two or three people
1:40:12
in the room and they're all just
1:40:15
like. And I was like, like we were
1:40:17
saying, this should be killing by now. Yeah.
1:40:19
And it wasn't. Now you're just a guy
1:40:21
eating a burger. Now I'm a man who
1:40:23
came into an audition with a casting director
1:40:25
who like kind of liked me. and I
1:40:28
ate a burger off of her casting floor.
1:40:30
And so I'm like eating, and I'm sticking
1:40:32
with it, I'm like, could get funny or
1:40:34
could get, it's bomb, two minutes of bombing.
1:40:36
And then one of them just goes, how
1:40:39
is that David Hasselhoff? And
1:40:41
I go, have you seen the video where
1:40:43
he eats the burger off the floor? And
1:40:45
they were like, well that, that's a
1:40:47
huge component in this working. All
1:40:49
right, let me just get the tomato
1:40:51
out of the rug. And I'll be
1:40:54
on my way! Like a lawyer
1:40:56
who bombed a case, putting papers
1:40:58
in a brief case. You become
1:41:00
John Lovett's, and I'll be on
1:41:02
my way. I apologize. I'm sorry.
1:41:05
It bombed. That's fantastic.
1:41:07
It was rare. I had the
1:41:09
first time I did stand up.
1:41:11
Gareth. Talked to me. So I
1:41:13
rent out the Lyceum restaurant
1:41:16
in Salem, Massachusetts,
1:41:18
and I invite. This is the
1:41:20
first time. Yeah. I invite 45
1:41:22
of my closest friends and family.
1:41:25
No, I'm sorry. May I? You
1:41:27
felt the confidence to rent
1:41:29
a room. I'm telling you, my
1:41:31
friend, I know. You headlined your
1:41:33
first show in front of people you
1:41:36
know. I did the thing that if
1:41:38
I had to perform for that
1:41:40
audience today, I would be petrified.
1:41:42
My parents are there. My
1:41:44
professors are there. Oh my
1:41:46
friend. Every face in the
1:41:48
audience is someone I know.
1:41:51
Congregating. How
1:41:53
old are you? Well,
1:41:56
I'm in college. I'm...
1:41:58
2021? 2021? Okay, so
1:42:00
you ran out a restaurant. I
1:42:03
ran out the top floor of
1:42:05
this restaurant. I've been there since.
1:42:07
It was crazy. Anyway, get the
1:42:09
mics. My friend Aaron, his dad,
1:42:11
Dave Bonner, gave me the equipment
1:42:13
for free. No opener. I was
1:42:15
just gonna ask, wow. No opener.
1:42:17
Who announces? My friend Mark Philian
1:42:19
goes up on stage. And we
1:42:22
don't know what the fuck we're
1:42:24
doing. Okay. Mark Phileen, he looks
1:42:26
like the princess bride, like the
1:42:28
dread prior Robert. He's got the
1:42:30
haircut like in Rudolph, the dentist,
1:42:32
he looks like that point. Mark
1:42:34
Phileen goes on stage and he
1:42:36
gets dead serious in the mic
1:42:39
and he goes, there are three
1:42:41
cameras positioned around the room. Those
1:42:43
are for Peter Holmes, for audition
1:42:45
purposes, for local comedy clubs. Please
1:42:47
do not obstruct the cameras. And
1:42:49
ladies and gentlemen, without further do
1:42:51
Peter, Peter Holmes. And I came
1:42:53
out, everyone goes nuts obviously, because
1:42:55
they're literally my dearest friends and
1:42:58
family. Can't believe I did this.
1:43:00
One of the bits that bombed.
1:43:02
Some bits did okay. Okay. You're
1:43:04
doing 45? I did about 45
1:43:06
minutes. And this is all just
1:43:08
pre-written memorized like a monologue. Memorized
1:43:10
like much much more memorized like
1:43:12
a monologue than I do now.
1:43:14
Yeah a lot of in the
1:43:17
mirror bedroom Yeah great question lot
1:43:19
in the mirror lot of you
1:43:21
know because translating the at home
1:43:23
cadence to the real there is
1:43:25
a and I don't even have
1:43:27
a cadence I don't even have
1:43:29
a voice but there's like a
1:43:31
there's some of like the actual
1:43:33
process leaves there's a lot of
1:43:36
holes when you're in front of
1:43:38
people versus when you're at home
1:43:40
and I don't even know yeah
1:43:42
it's like you're like you're You're
1:43:44
watching someone drive a stick shift
1:43:46
Bigfoot monster truck who's only seen
1:43:48
a video of a car And
1:43:50
I'm chunk and yeah Yeah, and
1:43:53
your dad's there. And my dad's
1:43:55
fucking there. And I did, I
1:43:57
remember my opener was like, I
1:43:59
was like, how I started this,
1:44:01
I don't know, but I was
1:44:03
like, I'm six foot six, which
1:44:05
is great, but it's hard to
1:44:07
do something like, I can't hide.
1:44:09
Like I thought, that was fine.
1:44:12
Pretty good. That was like my
1:44:14
strongest joke. That's good. But it
1:44:16
gets stupider from there. I was
1:44:18
like, 45. If someone comes in
1:44:20
and I did the. I'm gonna
1:44:22
kill everybody I can see that
1:44:24
was I did this joke for
1:44:26
years. Yeah, I was like what
1:44:28
am I gonna do I can
1:44:31
be like I'm a plan I'm
1:44:33
an exotic plant uh-huh then I
1:44:35
went I'm an erotic plant uh-huh
1:44:37
then I went I'm an erotic
1:44:39
plant I'm an erotic plant uh-huh
1:44:41
then I'm an erotic plant I'm
1:44:43
an erotic plant I'm an erotic
1:44:45
plant uh-huh I'm a erotic I'm
1:44:47
a erotic I could just stand
1:44:50
really I've heard this joke I've
1:44:52
heard this joke It got better
1:44:54
as I went, but that was
1:44:56
the first joke I did. And
1:44:58
then somewhere around minute 30, where
1:45:00
they're kind of realizing like, this
1:45:02
kid's reading his notebook, like he's
1:45:04
doing every thought he's ever had,
1:45:07
I don't remember much of it,
1:45:09
but I go, listen to this
1:45:11
premise, man, and feel old. Because
1:45:13
this is like, I was trying
1:45:15
to write what I knew. And
1:45:17
I go, you know when you
1:45:19
go to your friend's house and
1:45:21
you end up staying for dinner?
1:45:23
There's always kind of like a
1:45:26
pressure to that. This is how
1:45:28
I would say it. This is
1:45:30
not how I said it then.
1:45:32
It's almost like the mom is
1:45:34
auditioning for you. This is so
1:45:36
90s. It's like the mom. It's
1:45:38
like, what do you guys eat?
1:45:40
Like, impress us. But in the
1:45:42
status dynamic, I'm the guest, you
1:45:45
need to show me that you're
1:45:47
a good cook. Yes. It's very
1:45:49
like home improvement. It's like a
1:45:51
home improvement plot. So not didn't
1:45:53
age great, but it was the
1:45:55
idea that the mom. Your family
1:45:57
is like yeah, you are you're
1:45:59
a guest in their world and
1:46:01
you're gonna what? you like when
1:46:04
I'm not around. Exactly. Yeah. And
1:46:06
also there's kind of, if I
1:46:08
did the bit again, I would
1:46:10
have stepped this out and it's
1:46:12
like, and you know my mom
1:46:14
is gonna ask. Was Nancy a
1:46:16
good cook? Did she do a
1:46:18
good job? That's really what's going
1:46:20
on here, is I'm still so
1:46:23
my mother's son that we're gonna
1:46:25
gossip about the cooking at my
1:46:27
friend's house. This is all a
1:46:29
very shaky premise. Yes. It sucks.
1:46:31
Yeah. And I go, so I
1:46:33
always do this thing. It's kind
1:46:35
of Steve Martin. So I always
1:46:37
would just like put the mommities,
1:46:40
be like, look, nothing fancy. You
1:46:42
don't have to pull out all
1:46:44
the stops, just another normal night.
1:46:46
And as I'm saying, Ms. Gareth,
1:46:48
I'm in my back pocket for
1:46:50
my only prop, cheeseb. It's a
1:46:52
lobster bib. And I go, don't
1:46:54
worry. Nothing fancy, I put on
1:46:56
a lobster bib. As if that's...
1:46:59
The show-stopping prop comedy of the
1:47:01
day. There's I'll walk you through
1:47:03
my flag in a minute, but
1:47:05
I can't wait all I want
1:47:07
to tell you before I give
1:47:09
you the reins It got nothing
1:47:11
and then I'm wearing a lobster
1:47:13
bid bombing and I'm like all
1:47:15
right, and I like ripped it
1:47:18
off like you know like turret
1:47:20
as I was like planning on
1:47:22
reusing I got the lobster bid
1:47:24
from legal seafood and I was
1:47:26
like I worked a legal see
1:47:28
In Boston, I was a host.
1:47:30
It's funny and beautifully embarrassing. Yeah.
1:47:32
Here's, but I almost am walking
1:47:34
myself off my note because fancy,
1:47:37
high expectation in my head, I'm
1:47:39
like, well yeah, but Lobster Bib
1:47:41
says specifically seafood, but Lobster is
1:47:43
considered the affluent meal. Yeah. So
1:47:45
you're saying. I'm expecting lobster. Yeah,
1:47:47
that's I think that is very
1:47:49
funny. That should have gotten more.
1:47:51
But how fucking great is it
1:47:54
when something bombs and you have
1:47:56
to live with the prop? Like
1:47:58
you live with the prop. and you
1:48:00
have a lot like the burger on the ground like the burger
1:48:02
on the ground. If I was gonna do it I'd do it
1:48:04
kind of like Vince von now I'd be like I always tell
1:48:06
the mom you know like relax I'm just a normal guy just
1:48:08
normal night don't worry about it don't do anything fancy if you
1:48:11
do have some sort of sorbet in between courses I'd love to
1:48:13
clean my palate. In between courses I'd love to clean courses I'd
1:48:15
like to clean my palate my palate just the normal night don't
1:48:17
worry about it don't do anything fancy if you have some sort
1:48:19
of sorbay in between courses in between courses I'd between courses I'd
1:48:21
love I'd love. If you know I'd love. I'd like I'd like.
1:48:24
I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. If you know. I'd
1:48:26
like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd
1:48:28
like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like. I'd like The
1:48:30
lobster bib at least it's one in
1:48:32
two. I see that's tough. I feel
1:48:34
like that's good. What did you close
1:48:36
on in your 45? Great question. Couldn't
1:48:39
tell you. Did you use this tape
1:48:41
around town? I sent it to
1:48:43
the Comedy Connection in Providence, Rhode
1:48:45
Island. They gave me a three
1:48:47
minute guest spot based on the
1:48:49
tape. And then you went, did
1:48:51
you start going back? That's a
1:48:53
great club, by the way. They,
1:48:55
yeah, I hardened towards that club.
1:48:57
I bristled because I shouldn't. They
1:48:59
were nice and gave me a guest spot. But
1:49:02
then I went in the office, I've
1:49:04
told the story before, but I went
1:49:06
in the office and the manager who
1:49:08
didn't look up, she's like eating a
1:49:10
Caesar salad or something. She literally goes
1:49:12
call us in six months, but doesn't
1:49:14
say anything else. And I was like
1:49:16
yikes. But at that point I was
1:49:18
doing a lot of sneeze material. There's
1:49:20
new material. I had retired the hour.
1:49:23
I was doing a lot of sneeze
1:49:25
stuff back. The culture had leaned into
1:49:27
like an allergy direction. So I was
1:49:29
doing a lot of afferent sneezy stuff.
1:49:31
You know, big nose guy down the
1:49:33
street. What's big nose guy like at a
1:49:35
party. What's funny is doing the Coke. I
1:49:37
had done stand up again in... Sorry, what
1:49:40
you said deserved more. I did stand up
1:49:42
again in college and I did it again.
1:49:44
By the way. Sneeze. No. I did another
1:49:47
40 minutes of stand up. Rented a place?
1:49:49
Did it in the coffee shop. Now it's
1:49:51
everyone I go to school with you're just
1:49:53
it's insane it is it is it's insane
1:49:56
and I'm insane no I know it's insane.
1:49:58
It's insane. It's a little un Hinged.
1:50:00
It's well, it's it's like everyone
1:50:02
come I'm going to do stand
1:50:04
up and it is the place
1:50:06
was packed. See, that's the
1:50:08
being anonymous is very. Oh, I
1:50:10
know key for the beginning of stand
1:50:13
up. I know. And I was like,
1:50:15
no, everyone come watch. Come watch me
1:50:17
do my driver's test. It's crazy. Okay.
1:50:19
So I had an audio cassette
1:50:21
tape of that set. Okay. And
1:50:23
at one point. See, I didn't
1:50:25
know this. But at one point
1:50:27
they're warm. I kind of had gotten them
1:50:30
laughing. And I, in fact, I don't even
1:50:32
remember doing badly at either of these shows.
1:50:34
I had a good feeling about both of
1:50:36
them, which I'm sure it wasn't great.
1:50:38
Well, but I did this bit about
1:50:41
sneezing and about how some people hold
1:50:43
in their sneezes and all this sort
1:50:45
of stuff. But I was on a
1:50:48
roll. What had happened was I inadvertently
1:50:50
got on a roll. And now they're
1:50:52
laughing more than the bit deserves because
1:50:54
I had found a rhythm. And now
1:50:57
they're so happy. And the bit worked.
1:50:59
And I accidentally said, well, I said
1:51:01
thank you in the bit. But I
1:51:03
said thank you in the bit. But
1:51:06
I said thank you in the bit.
1:51:08
But it sounded like thank you in
1:51:10
the bit. But it sounded like, I'm
1:51:12
just going to out of no. in
1:51:15
a three-minute set be like some people
1:51:17
hold in their sneezes and I'm doing
1:51:19
it as the second time I've ever
1:51:21
done it to pure death call me
1:51:23
in six months she was right yeah okay
1:51:25
I get it I mean I do I think
1:51:27
like it is it is like it that's the
1:51:30
thing is that it's so so where did you
1:51:32
get your where did you start rolling with stand-up
1:51:34
was that in New York Chicago oh
1:51:36
was Chicago oh right right yeah and
1:51:39
that was when you started when you
1:51:41
started crushing crushing crushing Chicago
1:51:43
was the first place that I crushed, where
1:51:46
I was like, oh, okay, I'm gonna be
1:51:48
all right. And did you do any, did
1:51:50
any of that material from set one? Yeah,
1:51:52
I can't hide. Can't hide, right? Ritter, can't
1:51:54
hide. And then when I didn't sneeze
1:51:56
ever make it? Sneeze never again. Sneeze
1:51:58
never again. Sneeze got burned. Yeah, when
1:52:00
you get burned real bad. I can't
1:52:02
do it. Yeah, still talking about it.
1:52:05
I'm like, I still did the cheeseburger
1:52:07
off the floor stuff, but just never
1:52:09
caught fire. What was your first bit
1:52:11
that you did that you were like,
1:52:14
I have a bit? It was about
1:52:16
my dad always on the voicemail telling
1:52:18
me the time where I lived as
1:52:21
well. So he would always go. Like
1:52:23
he wasn't necessary for the time anyway,
1:52:25
the voicemail did it, but he'd go,
1:52:27
you know, he lived in Wisconsin and
1:52:30
I lived out here, so he'd go,
1:52:32
it's 1245 here, 1045 your time. And
1:52:34
I'd be like, and then I just,
1:52:37
so like that worked in its setup,
1:52:39
and then I started, you know, it's
1:52:41
like then he travels, you know, it's
1:52:43
Australia, it's 1115 here, it's a Wednesday
1:52:46
at 1 AM, you, you know, you
1:52:48
know, whatever. And then I go, and
1:52:50
then I was in a was in
1:52:53
a warm hole. So then at the
1:52:55
end he was in a wormhole and
1:52:57
then and so what happened was it
1:52:59
started with like a weird time and
1:53:02
then honestly This is like I took
1:53:04
Iowasca and then like as I was
1:53:06
done. I was like I'm gonna put
1:53:09
all of my experience into so so
1:53:11
then he's the big got updated with
1:53:13
your Iowa trip. So then he's then
1:53:15
he was in space for the end
1:53:18
and so he's like it's your dad
1:53:20
I'm quoting an intergalactic worm hole I
1:53:22
don't know what time it is. I'm
1:53:25
actually, I could see the face of
1:53:27
God and the stars right now and
1:53:29
he's bringing me closer and he's letting
1:53:31
me know everything is love. It's not
1:53:34
even man, woman, it just is and
1:53:36
everything's love and the connection between all
1:53:38
of us. There's no space between us.
1:53:41
It's completely invented. We're all one. If
1:53:43
we do all of this, one a.m.
1:53:45
Your time. Like I was like a
1:53:47
long run of that. But that was
1:53:50
over years, but that was over years,
1:53:52
but that was the first. That was
1:53:54
the first joke. That was the first
1:53:57
joke. Very very good. Yeah, I it's
1:53:59
funny that you say that I just
1:54:01
did Kedamine. A Kedamine sesh. Uh-huh. And
1:54:03
I kept going. It's beyond yes and
1:54:06
no. It's beyond one and zero. It's
1:54:08
this other thing. Very similar to your
1:54:10
bet. That's making me want to, did
1:54:13
we talk about your Iowa school last
1:54:15
time you were here? I don't know,
1:54:17
I don't think so either. When you
1:54:19
experienced that, just to give you a
1:54:22
launching off, it's like, you realize you're
1:54:24
looking at the whole thing. Well
1:54:27
Rupert's fire my favorite teacher would say
1:54:29
it's like we're wearing orange tinted glasses
1:54:31
because we see and experience everything through
1:54:34
the five senses So it's like we
1:54:36
see touch taste smell here, and isn't
1:54:38
it just a funny coincidence that our
1:54:40
universe is everything you can see touch
1:54:43
taste here? So it's sensing and perceiving
1:54:45
and thinking because that's what we do.
1:54:47
So it's like you can't see ultimate
1:54:49
reality like white snow through orange tinted
1:54:52
glasses You'll only see orange snow and
1:54:54
when I was in that Ketamine state
1:54:56
I was like Oh, it's like a
1:54:58
joke, like trying to take this into
1:55:01
the casing of five senses. And I,
1:55:03
because I even asked it at one
1:55:05
point. I was like, it's all one,
1:55:08
it's so love, I get it, I
1:55:10
get it. I go, can't I bring
1:55:12
it, can't I have this when I'm
1:55:14
like walking around? And it was like,
1:55:17
that's what it was like. It was
1:55:19
like, oh, there's like another sense. Like
1:55:21
it did feel to me like, holy
1:55:23
shit, there is another way. Oh, and
1:55:26
I completely relate to that. Like, I
1:55:28
do think it's like, that was really
1:55:30
what my first experience with it was,
1:55:32
was I was like, to your point
1:55:35
of five, it was like, oh, there's
1:55:37
like another sense. Like it did feel
1:55:39
to me like, holy shit, there is
1:55:41
another way of, it, I would, it
1:55:44
felt like part of my. mind worked
1:55:46
in a way that had never happened
1:55:48
before and nobody really prepped me for
1:55:50
it. Like everyone was like, it'll change
1:55:53
your life, but I didn't really have
1:55:55
any concept of what that actually meant.
1:55:57
Yeah. And then afterwards I was like...
1:56:00
It's almost like because I do
1:56:02
I still take I was good.
1:56:04
It's it's like we're saying with
1:56:06
new material You'll never see the
1:56:08
gains like that again that first
1:56:10
session the gains and how I
1:56:12
Perceived and existed after that huge
1:56:15
enormous Everything was different. I got
1:56:17
on a plane the next day
1:56:19
to go to my grandmother's funeral
1:56:21
And I was like I can't
1:56:23
imagine being at an event like
1:56:25
this and comforting my mother in
1:56:27
the way that I am now
1:56:29
without this There was like all
1:56:31
of a sudden it was like
1:56:33
I it was like the matrix
1:56:35
where he knows Kung Fu I
1:56:37
was like oh Yeah, I can
1:56:39
explain where I think my grandmother
1:56:41
is in a way that right
1:56:43
is not too spacy to my
1:56:45
mother, but is also comforting Wow
1:56:47
And then ever since then it's
1:56:49
like, it's just kind of like
1:56:51
reaffirming the stuff. But that first
1:56:53
one was just like an explosion
1:56:55
of... You didn't feel at all
1:56:57
like you could have warned me?
1:56:59
Because I've never like, I've never
1:57:01
done Iowaska. This Ketamine trip was
1:57:03
further out. But you can't even
1:57:05
grade these things by the way.
1:57:07
I came back and I said
1:57:09
to Val I was like, that
1:57:11
was the furthest out I've ever
1:57:13
been. And she's like, more than
1:57:15
five MEODMT. Right, like you can't
1:57:17
think about these things. Like you
1:57:19
can think about your breakfast. No,
1:57:22
even when I'll go, you know,
1:57:24
even when like you'll do any
1:57:26
hallucination, like you cannot kind of
1:57:28
get your brain into that headspace
1:57:30
until it actually goes there again.
1:57:32
And then when it comes back.
1:57:34
Yeah, then it's so. You don't
1:57:36
have it anymore. Now you've turned
1:57:38
it into a story. And it's
1:57:40
worse than a dream. It's even
1:57:42
harder to describe than a dream.
1:57:44
And I always say this to
1:57:46
Valle, I go, just tell Pete,
1:57:48
I always talk so far out,
1:57:50
I'm like, tell Pete, he's been
1:57:52
there, and that it's okay. Like
1:57:54
you have to be like, tell
1:57:56
him just, it wants him to
1:57:58
relax, and that everything's okay, because
1:58:00
I know I'm gonna forget. Like,
1:58:02
it is, at the end of
1:58:04
the day, there's a lot of
1:58:06
stuff, and there's a lot about
1:58:08
how you interact with others and
1:58:10
everyone. But also, there was just
1:58:12
a real sense of calming comfort
1:58:14
of, like, chill out a little.
1:58:16
Like, I think I really was,
1:58:18
I don't even think I was
1:58:20
out of my mind stressed, but
1:58:22
I think after it, I was
1:58:24
like, whoa, you need to really.
1:58:27
Take it down a notch with
1:58:29
what's getting involved in your brain.
1:58:31
Well, one of the things that
1:58:33
happened I was with another person
1:58:35
that was also doing it and
1:58:37
and at one point We were
1:58:39
just kind of like holding each
1:58:41
other. It was very beautiful really
1:58:43
really beautiful. I know that sounds
1:58:45
kind of weird to Earth Pete
1:58:47
even Earth Pete's like I'm not
1:58:49
really like snuggling my friends. Yeah,
1:58:51
but it made the most sense
1:58:53
in the world. Yeah, we completely
1:58:55
merged we completely merged and then
1:58:57
I was talking to him But
1:58:59
I was talking to myself because
1:59:01
I was just like, I just
1:59:03
knew we were having the same
1:59:05
experience. And the things I was
1:59:07
saying, what a privilege to have
1:59:09
lived a life where I got
1:59:11
to tell my friend these wonderful
1:59:13
things, and also talking to myself,
1:59:15
but it was a lot of
1:59:17
like, you can trust it, you
1:59:19
can trust it. And I knew
1:59:21
he knew what I meant. What
1:59:23
we were talking about was the
1:59:25
fundamental essence of reality. trustable and
1:59:27
he's just crying and I'm crying
1:59:29
and I'm like you can trust
1:59:32
you can trust you can trust
1:59:34
then we're laughing laughing at how
1:59:36
serious we are and stressed and
1:59:38
afraid and confused we are it
1:59:40
was really really and I also
1:59:42
kept saying we draw the lines
1:59:44
to your joke I was like
1:59:46
we draw the lines like we're
1:59:48
the ones that go yeah yeah
1:59:50
right Pete yeah and and and
1:59:52
then we would go my friend's
1:59:54
name is Sam I would go
1:59:56
I'm Pete and he'd and he'd
1:59:58
go I'm Sam. But when you're
2:00:00
in the field within which everything
2:00:02
exists, like a TV screen, everything
2:00:04
on the TV screen is made
2:00:06
out of these pixels, and when
2:00:08
you're in the field of consciousness
2:00:10
and everything, every sound, every feeling,
2:00:12
every... site is made of the
2:00:14
knowing of it. I hear my
2:00:16
voice in that, then I hear
2:00:18
his voice. The idea that we're
2:00:20
saying those are two different things
2:00:22
is the funniest joke you could
2:00:24
tell someone. Does that make sense?
2:00:26
Complete. I think that's where the
2:00:28
relief of existence came for me.
2:00:30
Like, because I was like, yeah,
2:00:32
you know, there is like, yeah,
2:00:34
it's all, it is. It all
2:00:37
feels very real, very important, very,
2:00:39
the stakes, but by the same
2:00:41
token, it's important to recognize that
2:00:43
it, I never had, I truly
2:00:45
went into it being a full
2:00:47
atheist. You know, and I didn't
2:00:49
think I would like, again, I'm
2:00:51
not like, there's no, I have
2:00:53
no organized position to my thoughts.
2:00:55
But after that, I was like,
2:00:57
well, there goes that. I mean,
2:00:59
holy shit, I was like, fuck,
2:01:01
I don't know what's going on,
2:01:03
and I probably won't ever fully
2:01:05
grasp it. But I don't think
2:01:07
that the stakes of everything felt
2:01:09
so high to me every day.
2:01:11
And so career oriented. And then
2:01:13
it was like, oh, you know
2:01:15
what? It's actually, there is an
2:01:17
interconnectivity that is so meaningful. And
2:01:19
you know what else? I watched
2:01:21
Monty Python the Meaning of life.
2:01:23
maybe two years after it. And
2:01:25
at the end, Michael Palin just
2:01:27
reads off the meaning of life
2:01:29
very flippantly. And I was like,
2:01:31
well, that's pretty much it. Yeah,
2:01:33
it was just kind of just
2:01:35
like, be cool, love everyone and
2:01:37
love every support and be. And
2:01:39
I was sort of like, well,
2:01:42
that's pretty much what I think
2:01:44
is like the idea of, and
2:01:46
I even notice it. Still, when
2:01:48
you just even in passing try
2:01:50
to have a, I mean, you
2:01:52
and I. you more than me,
2:01:54
but anybody who has people who
2:01:56
like what they do, you get
2:01:58
a very heightened version of appreciation
2:02:00
at times. And the way that
2:02:02
you can either not care about
2:02:04
that or actually genuinely care about
2:02:06
it and exchange appreciation in those
2:02:08
moments is really I think is
2:02:10
so important and it's so easy
2:02:12
to probably forget that but I
2:02:14
feel in like those times and
2:02:16
in that way like I genuinely
2:02:18
do go like that I you
2:02:20
know it doesn't fly through me
2:02:22
ever I'm always like that means
2:02:24
a lot yeah that actually has
2:02:26
real meaning to me and yeah
2:02:28
and I think like you know
2:02:30
that when you have when you're
2:02:32
fucking whatever you're doing has meaning
2:02:34
to someone or when what someone
2:02:36
does has meaning to you when
2:02:38
they tell you they appreciate it
2:02:40
or when you do appreciate it
2:02:42
that really is like what makes
2:02:44
all of this so kind of
2:02:46
valuable in a way right I
2:02:49
had that in my trip just
2:02:51
whatever it was two nights ago
2:02:53
where it was like it's all
2:02:55
one right so let's just start
2:02:57
with the idea that it's just
2:02:59
one consciousness and then it split
2:03:01
and then it one of the
2:03:03
parts did something to the other
2:03:05
part that the other part liked
2:03:07
like it created this theater and
2:03:09
I was like that's incredible yeah
2:03:11
like it for its own pleasure
2:03:13
wanted to like overflow and spill
2:03:15
and split into billions and billions
2:03:17
of things and then goes around
2:03:19
in engaging with itself yeah and
2:03:21
believing it because I was laughing
2:03:23
I was like I told my
2:03:25
friend I was like you're okay.
2:03:27
And I go, if it's at
2:03:29
all meaningful for equals to think
2:03:31
the other is okay. Like I
2:03:33
was like. It doesn't make any
2:03:35
sense. Like it's all the same
2:03:37
thing. It's all an octopus with
2:03:39
puppets. Yes. And one puppet is
2:03:41
going, you're okay. Yeah. But the
2:03:43
theater and the majesty that it
2:03:45
does work, that this one goes,
2:03:47
really? That's a miracle. It's a,
2:03:49
what a great little game to
2:03:51
play, giving and exchanging love and
2:03:54
giving fire. You're like, it's working.
2:03:56
I had this image where I
2:03:58
was like. Everyone should win an
2:04:00
Oscar for being them. It's a
2:04:02
long ceremony. It's a long... But
2:04:04
I was like, even your enemy,
2:04:06
take someone you don't like, they
2:04:08
could give a speech where they
2:04:10
were like, so convincingly your enemy,
2:04:12
that you're like, they played that
2:04:14
part perfectly. And you're playing Gareth
2:04:16
perfectly. The word was flawless. I
2:04:18
was like, I think that is
2:04:20
like, you know, I mean, I
2:04:22
would imagine, I think that is
2:04:24
why like, when I try to.
2:04:26
I would never be like do
2:04:28
something that you don't feel like
2:04:30
doing but that is and maybe
2:04:32
where even people listening or watching
2:04:34
would be like wait what's going
2:04:36
like I am like I can't
2:04:38
imagine having lived a life without
2:04:40
trying something like that because I
2:04:42
think to that point it also
2:04:44
is what makes you view the
2:04:46
struggles of people in the world
2:04:48
or when you meet someone who
2:04:50
has a much harder existence or
2:04:52
a struggle you do go fuck
2:04:54
you want to like Help
2:04:57
in some past yeah, because it is
2:04:59
you are like we are combined in
2:05:01
whatever way and These little tethers that
2:05:03
maybe we don't see but are so
2:05:06
the day after we had friends coming
2:05:08
over and I was to each one
2:05:10
of them I was like I'm so
2:05:12
glad you're here and I really meant
2:05:14
it. I was and how how how
2:05:17
did they take they were fine with
2:05:19
yeah, but they're fine with it less
2:05:21
than going like oh Pete. What's with
2:05:23
you? You know, like cool. That's awesome
2:05:25
Peter It was in a normal way.
2:05:28
I didn't do it in like a
2:05:30
vacant heavy way. Did you put a
2:05:32
lobster bibbon before you did it? I
2:05:34
was like, I'm so glad you here.
2:05:36
And then I licked my lips as
2:05:39
if I was hallucinating that they were
2:05:41
a lobster. Yeah. And they looked over
2:05:43
there was a giant vat of butter.
2:05:45
And I was like, so glad you're
2:05:47
here. But it's those little niceties that
2:05:50
you're like. negotiate this for me? Yeah,
2:05:52
it just, I mean I really do,
2:05:54
I remember like, like I said the
2:05:56
day after I went to the airport
2:05:58
and got on a flight and I
2:06:01
was like, first of all I was
2:06:03
watching how much everyone was on their
2:06:05
phones and I was like this is
2:06:07
fucking weird yeah that great and then
2:06:09
I was also like yesterday it took
2:06:12
me like 20 minutes to go to
2:06:14
space and today it's taking me nine
2:06:16
hours to get to England and I
2:06:18
was like this is it's bizarre and
2:06:20
it really was like it did feel
2:06:23
so much more I don't know I
2:06:25
was just kind of like the shell
2:06:27
is what the shell is the magic
2:06:29
shell yeah oh that's funny because one
2:06:31
of my experience is going to lobster
2:06:34
is my favorite Like simple is because
2:06:36
I'm like, oh, we are all just
2:06:38
in a lobster shell. But there's something
2:06:40
and that's something we share with everybody.
2:06:42
There's only one of those. Yeah. You
2:06:45
could also say bird talker has that
2:06:47
lyric about we're one wind and different
2:06:49
sailboats, but it's just one animating. That's
2:06:51
a really good way. You could also
2:06:53
say it's one knowing. That gets a
2:06:56
little, you know, a little more philosophical.
2:06:58
Just call it knowing or being. Yeah.
2:07:00
I had a real moment where I
2:07:02
was like, whoa, because when I came
2:07:04
back, I went into my first K-hole,
2:07:07
I guess, as I would call it.
2:07:09
I had never been in a K-hole,
2:07:11
and 10 out of 10 would recommend,
2:07:13
because if you're not, if you're resourced,
2:07:15
and not with good people, and right
2:07:18
setting, and all of that, and you
2:07:20
go into a place. Val was laughing
2:07:22
at me, I was like, it was
2:07:24
the stillest thing I've ever seen in
2:07:26
my life. And even as I say
2:07:29
this, now it's kind of emotional. It
2:07:31
was like you're watching a movie, like
2:07:33
on eight millimeter, like, and then all
2:07:35
of a sudden in front of the
2:07:37
projector, someone just puts a piece of
2:07:40
thick black poster board. So instead of
2:07:42
like frames, it's everything just stops, and
2:07:44
you're looking at the stillest black poster
2:07:46
board. It just... None of this is
2:07:48
going to make much sense. But I
2:07:51
was like, and everything went away. Time,
2:07:53
space, and I was just like looking
2:07:55
at this, but I wasn't even there,
2:07:57
and I was like... And I was
2:07:59
like, yes to it. And as soon
2:08:02
as I came out of it, I
2:08:04
just went with it. That's another thing
2:08:06
these things want you to know is
2:08:08
like, just like naked on the Titanic,
2:08:10
just being like, yes! It's like scream
2:08:13
yes at everything. And not just the
2:08:15
experience, but here. And I was like,
2:08:17
yes to it. And as soon as
2:08:19
I came out, I was like, I
2:08:21
see why they call it a hole.
2:08:24
It really feels like you're in out
2:08:26
of space sucked in and. Again, I
2:08:28
know this is going to sound a
2:08:30
little nuts, but I was like, you've
2:08:32
never seen stillness. I guess you could
2:08:35
call it a void. Yeah. But it
2:08:37
wasn't frightening because I still was. Like,
2:08:39
I was. Yeah, right. And the void
2:08:41
was me. And it was, and that's
2:08:43
why I kept going, you can trust
2:08:46
it. You can trust it. I was
2:08:48
like, I'm going to take you as
2:08:50
far from home as you can go
2:08:52
and you're going to realize that you
2:08:54
are your home. I completely like that's
2:08:57
why like I When people talk about
2:08:59
Iowa school, they're like, you shit your
2:09:01
pants. And I'm like, that to me,
2:09:03
I don't know who put that into
2:09:05
like, but I'm like, that's a corporate
2:09:08
talking point. Like, they're saying that so
2:09:10
you don't go take it. But even,
2:09:12
and I've been in ceremonies and there
2:09:14
has been in ceremonies and there has
2:09:16
been a guy or two who shit
2:09:19
their pants. Yeah. But you don't have
2:09:21
a body, let alone paint. So you
2:09:23
could care less if you shit your
2:09:25
pants if you shit your pants. There
2:09:27
was no me. Like the idea of
2:09:30
me. A body being an issue is
2:09:32
not an issue. That's so fucking funny.
2:09:34
So the reason Monty Python, I was
2:09:36
trying to describe it. You know how
2:09:38
Monty Python would occasionally use like an
2:09:41
animation style? Like Terry Gilliam. Yes. Where
2:09:43
something is clearly like paper? Yeah. Or
2:09:45
the intro to you can't do that
2:09:47
on television. And then they cut it
2:09:49
open. And I was like that. Shunk.
2:09:52
Something that's not a cartoon and is
2:09:54
not a movie. It's not a movie.
2:09:56
It's just. And I was there. But
2:09:58
here's the trip, man. People
2:10:00
were like, like, do you see
2:10:02
things on ketamine? And I was
2:10:04
like, you see that you're always,
2:10:06
right now we're seeing something. Yeah.
2:10:08
And that's fucking insane. That's halluc,
2:10:10
almost like we feel like we're
2:10:12
hallucinating right now. You are hallucinating
2:10:15
right now. I would, the way
2:10:17
that I would phrase it, and
2:10:19
I got this from Rupert Spara
2:10:21
is, there's one consciousness and it's
2:10:23
momentarily abstract. And that's what these
2:10:25
substances show you is it shows
2:10:27
you To make it some semi
2:10:29
religious. It's like you can make
2:10:31
your head in the make your
2:10:33
bed in the heavens and I
2:10:35
you are there meaning God You
2:10:37
could make your bed in the
2:10:39
depths and you are there meaning
2:10:41
you can't go somewhere without I
2:10:43
am and I am is the
2:10:45
great thing Yeah, and the I
2:10:47
am can be outer space or
2:10:49
it can be me here talking
2:10:51
putting on shoes taking a shit
2:10:53
You've never been apart from it.
2:10:55
And that's why they say the
2:10:57
great mystery is the most obvious
2:10:59
of all things and it's also
2:11:01
the most secret of all things.
2:11:03
Because when you have these like
2:11:05
substances or awakening experiences, you just
2:11:07
go, where could I go that
2:11:09
isn't? To use Rupert Spire's analogy,
2:11:11
where could we go that isn't
2:11:13
on the screen? Where could something
2:11:15
in a movie go that isn't
2:11:17
on the screen? And waiting for
2:11:19
Enlightenment is like waiting for something
2:11:21
amazing to happen in the movie?
2:11:23
Like, oh, I'll be enlightened once
2:11:25
I see a movie where a
2:11:27
guy's like flying? Yeah. All you
2:11:29
need to do is recognize the
2:11:31
screen. That's, as you go, I'm
2:11:34
on a screen, and the screen
2:11:36
is consciousness. Yeah. I think that,
2:11:38
I mean, I, again, it's like,
2:11:40
it's like, it is... There are
2:11:42
like there are hints of it
2:11:44
and things you read about or
2:11:46
listen to Before you you know
2:11:48
delve into any like I wouldn't
2:11:50
say psychic anything that puts you
2:11:52
under and kind of Does a
2:11:54
little third eye opening but that
2:11:56
that to me was like was
2:11:58
really it it was like It
2:12:00
did. It felt, it wasn't even
2:12:02
that life felt lonely, but once
2:12:04
I felt like, you know, you are
2:12:06
just one piece in a puzzle,
2:12:09
you were like, oh, okay. That,
2:12:11
that, like that took me from
2:12:13
feeling like a fully inflated balloon
2:12:16
walking around that was afraid of
2:12:18
a needle to being like a
2:12:20
quarter filled balloon that was just
2:12:23
like, I don't give a shit.
2:12:25
That's beautiful. Because you had the
2:12:27
interconnected jigsaw thing. Half as
2:12:29
important at most really yeah,
2:12:32
including like what well? I mean
2:12:34
honestly like career I mean I
2:12:36
really do think that like so much
2:12:38
of my focus was on that The
2:12:41
people I loved that had more meaning
2:12:43
to it, but I loved everybody more
2:12:45
but my I guess Animas towards the
2:12:47
machine of Hollywood or career that
2:12:50
I was like always felt so
2:12:52
frustrated by not being able to
2:12:54
get a footing in it i
2:12:56
started kind of and i think
2:12:59
it has helped with my career
2:13:01
now because it made me go i don't
2:13:03
give as much of a shit i mean i
2:13:05
i you know like even in my uh... version
2:13:07
of whatever this is that's
2:13:09
what i mean it's like the
2:13:11
I still get a level of
2:13:13
appreciation for what I do from
2:13:15
people in a way that has
2:13:18
so much value to me, that
2:13:20
if that is what it is,
2:13:22
that's plenty. Like the idea of
2:13:24
greed, like, I do think, it's
2:13:26
funny because I thought about
2:13:28
when I, you are so... Nice in the way
2:13:31
that like I'll see you sometimes and you'll
2:13:33
be like oh you've been gone forever I'm
2:13:35
so sorry I don't and I'm like that
2:13:37
to me is not an insult like I
2:13:39
never want to imply that you're touring too
2:13:42
much or you're not or that or that
2:13:44
whatever I mean I but I think that
2:13:46
that is the reality and I have
2:13:48
no issue with the reality being like
2:13:50
I'm gone all the fucking time because
2:13:52
I am grinding out whatever this is
2:13:55
but the recognition of there's so much
2:13:57
good that comes out from that even when
2:13:59
you do get Because the truth is
2:14:01
it never leaves you you don't
2:14:03
even know I'll be behind someone
2:14:06
at the store and be like
2:14:08
Jesus Christ It's not like oh,
2:14:10
that's done. I'm always happy now
2:14:12
and I really appreciate that person
2:14:14
because it's just skin that
2:14:17
just got separated. It's an
2:14:19
illusion I am like buddy. That's
2:14:21
15 items. This is 10 or
2:14:23
less but you do value it It's
2:14:25
I don't think I wonder why the
2:14:27
people who have so much stress about
2:14:29
it more than anyone and then I
2:14:32
go well my version of it is
2:14:34
you know this middling spot where I'm
2:14:36
very happy with it and very appreciative
2:14:38
and the idea of getting wound up
2:14:40
or caught up in all of that is
2:14:43
the ego which the more I do this
2:14:45
stuff is really the thing you're trying to
2:14:47
just kind of release yourself of
2:14:49
as much as humanly possible. I
2:14:52
totally hear all of that yeah and
2:14:54
it doesn't luckily I have good friends
2:14:56
like Mike Brabiglia that are like Pete,
2:14:58
like if you go, a good one
2:15:00
would be, oh this person does bigger
2:15:02
venues. Yes. And makes more money.
2:15:04
Yes. That's really what you're saying. Yes.
2:15:06
It seems like less work. Less work
2:15:09
and more money. Yeah. And then Mike,
2:15:11
and I'm so grateful to have friends
2:15:13
like this, he's like, Pete, you tour
2:15:15
and people come out and see you
2:15:17
and laugh and you're and you're good
2:15:19
at it. Yeah. Like you have nothing
2:15:22
to ever complain about. I appreciate that.
2:15:24
I wouldn't even say I'd do that
2:15:26
for him, but I would if he,
2:15:28
like good friends like that, that you're
2:15:30
talking about. He could do that for
2:15:32
someone else, and I can do that
2:15:34
for you, and someone else does that
2:15:36
for me. I mean, it is, it
2:15:39
is endless. I mean, and you know,
2:15:41
the people who you meet who opened
2:15:43
for you, they are on, it's truly
2:15:45
like what makes this business so bizarre,
2:15:47
is that it's kind of like...
2:15:50
ultimate ego gladiator. And
2:15:52
so you have to like
2:15:54
to say in this line
2:15:56
of work I want to
2:15:58
like have my ego and check
2:16:00
is really kind of like the
2:16:02
strangest version of it. What's like
2:16:05
Coca-Cola is saying I want to
2:16:07
have my sugar, I don't want
2:16:09
to do too much sugar. Yeah,
2:16:11
right. And you are Coca-Cola. But
2:16:13
I actually think that paradox, and
2:16:15
I could be deluding myself, I've
2:16:17
chosen perhaps to believe that my
2:16:19
job being my ego has helped
2:16:21
me understand where it is, maybe
2:16:23
I'm full of shit, but I'm
2:16:25
like there it is and I
2:16:27
know what it wants and I
2:16:29
know what it does. I'm trying
2:16:31
to do a bit where I'm
2:16:33
like, don't even ask what I
2:16:35
think. It's so boring. It's like,
2:16:37
what's in it for me? Like,
2:16:39
will it make me comfortable and
2:16:41
happy? Will it make me jizz?
2:16:43
Like it's such a snooze. I'm
2:16:45
interested in other things. Yeah, right.
2:16:47
Let's not talk to the monkey.
2:16:49
Yeah, right. About how the monkey's
2:16:51
doing. Or what the monkey thought
2:16:53
of that movie. Yeah, right. Who
2:16:55
fucking cares? Because once you've tasted
2:16:57
these. higher altitudes you're just sort
2:16:59
of like I'd rather like when
2:17:01
I was on cadmium we were
2:17:03
talking about my parents I was
2:17:05
like I talk about the stuff
2:17:07
all the time yeah let's go
2:17:09
to the blue planet yeah let's
2:17:11
go out of space so we're
2:17:13
almost we're past two hours it's
2:17:16
fine just in respect for your
2:17:18
time can you give me a
2:17:20
taste of and you have but
2:17:22
I don't want to leave any
2:17:24
stone unturned here something that you
2:17:26
took away especially from that first
2:17:28
ayahuasca Was there like a deathless
2:17:30
revelation? Was there like a just
2:17:32
I mean I felt like Honestly
2:17:34
it that first time was just
2:17:36
I think I was Just getting
2:17:38
my bearings of like holy fuck
2:17:40
like I felt I felt a
2:17:42
I felt a third-eye connection to
2:17:44
a place that I didn't know
2:17:46
existed and then the second time
2:17:48
saw a place I just was
2:17:50
I felt like I was having
2:17:52
a communication with something so far
2:17:54
outside of myself that was willing
2:17:56
to scoff at my questions. and
2:17:58
answer ones I didn't even know
2:18:00
I wanted to ask. Like I
2:18:02
went in there going like, do
2:18:04
I smoke too many cigarettes? You
2:18:06
know, and it was like, yep,
2:18:08
that's crazy, don't smoke. Anyway, how
2:18:10
about like, it was kind of
2:18:12
like that. And so the second
2:18:14
time I went in a little
2:18:16
more prepped to try to have
2:18:18
some of these questions answered. And
2:18:20
again, the agenda was what was
2:18:22
so funny during the session, because
2:18:25
it's like, yeah, it's not a
2:18:27
fucking presser. it just and again
2:18:29
i think this is why there
2:18:31
is why these things are so
2:18:33
synonymous with the word love is
2:18:35
because that was really the only
2:18:37
thing i kept thinking of was
2:18:39
love providing love feeling sad for
2:18:41
people who weren't loved and recognizing
2:18:43
that people are the way they
2:18:45
are because of the way they
2:18:47
were loved or the way they
2:18:49
don't know how to love and
2:18:51
how really at the end of
2:18:53
the day, even being pleasant is
2:18:55
an extension of love and you
2:18:57
never know who needs it, who's
2:18:59
asking for it or anything, but
2:19:01
deep down it is fully, you
2:19:03
know, the thing that makes, it
2:19:05
brings people the comfort that makes
2:19:07
being a human okay. Off of
2:19:09
that, so I do parts work,
2:19:11
therapy, internal family systems and... Let's
2:19:13
say I find a part of
2:19:15
me that's real gruff. It just
2:19:17
means an aspect of my psyche.
2:19:19
That's really afraid and angry or
2:19:21
it might seem ugly to me
2:19:23
or vicious. And every time it's
2:19:25
a shock and a surprise and
2:19:27
a delight that all it wants,
2:19:29
just like every person, is someone
2:19:31
to say, thank you. I see
2:19:33
what you're doing. You're doing a
2:19:36
good job. Thank you for your
2:19:38
help. And can I help you?
2:19:40
And I love you, basically. Every
2:19:42
time. Every time. I'll find the
2:19:44
pricklyest protector. And I'm like, well,
2:19:46
there's no getting to this guy.
2:19:48
And all you have to do
2:19:50
is be like, I see you.
2:19:52
I honor you. You know. and
2:19:54
I had I had and then
2:19:56
I'm not trying to give you
2:19:58
like a fucking whatever I had
2:20:00
a fucking stalker for a while
2:20:02
and it was the worst so
2:20:04
fucking stressful it was like just
2:20:06
debilitating in every way you know
2:20:08
and um and then as it
2:20:10
sort of had slowed down I
2:20:12
felt ready to go take Iowask
2:20:14
again right so as I'm doing
2:20:16
it It's not hitting me the
2:20:18
same way. Like, you know, I
2:20:20
mean, it's very much like drink,
2:20:22
wait, see, like nobody's going like,
2:20:24
do another shot. Like, it was
2:20:26
like, drink it, see, and I
2:20:28
was dosing myself and going, like,
2:20:30
nothing's happening. And then the person
2:20:32
I work with was recognizing there
2:20:34
was like a block in me
2:20:36
while I was doing it, which
2:20:38
was very validating and like being
2:20:40
with this person, right? So this
2:20:42
person then, in whatever way, I'm
2:20:44
about to throw up. like them
2:20:47
kind of explaining to me what
2:20:49
was going on and when I
2:20:51
threw up it felt like I
2:20:53
threw up that dark experience that
2:20:55
had been kind of rotting me
2:20:57
inside and out through you know
2:20:59
the actions of an outsider but
2:21:01
as well as how I how
2:21:03
I was coping with it like
2:21:05
physically what it was doing to
2:21:07
me literally felt like it came
2:21:09
out of me then I laid
2:21:11
down then it all started to
2:21:13
take effect and then it was
2:21:15
like while I That what this
2:21:17
person did to me was so
2:21:19
horrendous and so unnecessary and unmotivated
2:21:21
and inexcusable I was like I
2:21:23
do feel bad for this person
2:21:25
this person this is something this
2:21:27
person is going through that a
2:21:29
love or lack of it. Yeah
2:21:31
and they are working out something
2:21:33
that was deficient it's being taken
2:21:35
out on me but but it
2:21:37
went from like a deep hatred
2:21:39
which you know again it's like
2:21:41
you can Bat in that hatch
2:21:43
for as much as you try
2:21:45
to it still exists, but I
2:21:47
was like you are you are
2:21:49
coping And whether you're taking it
2:21:51
but and I never would have
2:21:53
thought that's what I mean to
2:21:55
these thank you for sharing that
2:21:58
because that's exactly what I'm saying
2:22:00
is you want you have to
2:22:02
go into these parts and be
2:22:04
like what the fuck are you
2:22:06
doing? Yeah, and then you're like
2:22:08
that doesn't get you anywhere. Yeah,
2:22:10
right. Yeah, right. Yeah, I was
2:22:12
holding it inside and that was
2:22:14

2:22:16
like. Yeah, well, let it fucking

father who I love I'm not
2:23:51
even Franciscan, but I love him
2:23:53
to death spiritual teacher He just
2:23:55
loves people and I've watched I've
2:23:57
gotten dispense and spent some time
2:23:59
with him. And I've said this a
2:24:01
million times, but all he does is
2:24:04
honor people and reflects them back to
2:24:06
themselves in a very Iowask, a very
2:24:08
catamine way. And it's so simple.
2:24:10
And it's just, Garrett, I think
2:24:12
you're so funny. I'm not trying
2:24:14
to make you uncomfortable. I just
2:24:16
think you're the real deal. and you're
2:24:18
a gift and I appreciate you I
2:24:20
