<v Speaker 2>I do?

<v Speaker 4>she moved in. She has a munchkin cat. And yeah,

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 4>from there, my best friend Taylor, he called me up

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 4>and was like, hey, dude, I found these fucking kittens

0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.720
<v Speaker 4>in my project car. And I was like, all right, well,

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 4>we'll come check them out.

0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 3>And then when we got there, we were like, wait,

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 3>I want.

0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.600
<v Speaker 2>You to put a pin in the start your your

0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 2>friend found kittens in his car.

0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 4>So he like does like work on cars and stuff

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.960
<v Speaker 4>like that with my other buddy, And apparently there was

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.360
<v Speaker 4>like a cat in the area that had some kittens

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:13.720
<v Speaker 4>and just like left it in the car.

0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.000
<v Speaker 1>So he bought a car without knowing that there were

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:17.600
<v Speaker 1>kittens in it.

0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 4>No no, no, no no. He was working on the

0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 4>car in a garage and.

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:28.239
<v Speaker 3>He like got there after work one day.

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:31.880
<v Speaker 4>Oh once it check, yeah, and he found like, okay.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 1>They've found themselves in there.

0:02:34.400 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah.

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:35.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 4>I still can't believe I'm on the line with you

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 4>right now.

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 3>That's fucking insane.

0:02:39.720 --> 0:02:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Wait, so and so you just took all of them.

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, what so you just took all these cats?

0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:47.919
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.280
<v Speaker 4>So the initial the initial idea was like, Okay, I'm

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 4>just gonna take care of him and then foster a map.

0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:58.120
<v Speaker 4>But then it kind of devolved into this situation of

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:02.640
<v Speaker 4>I guess I'm a crazy cat person because, uh, I

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 4>fucking like every day during my lunch break at work,

0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:08.840
<v Speaker 4>I work as an administrative assistant at this law firm

0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.360
<v Speaker 4>and every day I go and uh, i'd have to

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:17.079
<v Speaker 4>bottle feed them and stuff like that. And my girlfriend, well,

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:20.640
<v Speaker 4>my fiance, she's a she's a nurse. So together we

0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 4>make we make a decent salary so we can afford it.

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.120
<v Speaker 5>It's just like when.

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.440
<v Speaker 4>I tell people I have nine cats, they're like, oh

0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:32.880
<v Speaker 4>my god, this guy's fucking crazy. But realistically, I you know,

0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 4>they're they're well, they're well capped.

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Do you have Okay, which one? And look, here's the thing.

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>You can be honest about this because cats don't understand English,

0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 2>so you can feel.

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 5>Free you say that.

0:03:46.520 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Which one is your which one is your favorite?

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 3>That's fucked up, man, They.

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Were not They're not gonna know, dude, which one is

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 1>your favorite.

0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't know that I could rank them, dude, Okay,

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:05.600
<v Speaker 4>I put like, okay, ummm, my absolute favorite one is

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 4>this Siamese cat who's like sixteen pounds.

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 3>He was the second cat I ever got. He Uh

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:13.040
<v Speaker 3>he's a little special, you know what I'm saying.

0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:16.159
<v Speaker 4>Uh, I don't know if I could say that, But

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:17.599
<v Speaker 4>take from.

0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.240
<v Speaker 3>That what you will, you know what I mean.

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:22.679
<v Speaker 4>Uh, but he's very loyal. He acts almost like a dog.

0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Dogs kind of are just dumb cats.

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 4>You know, they say dogs are smarter than cats, But

0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:36.279
<v Speaker 4>I don't know that I believe that because you know,

0:04:37.720 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 4>cats know how to use the bathroom correctly when they're

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 4>like fucking the size of your hands?

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:43.360
<v Speaker 5>Do they really?

0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:45.560
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, uh, well don't they if they knew

0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:47.039
<v Speaker 2>how to use a dog, if they knew how to

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>use a bathroom correctly, why would they?

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 4>Oh okay, I see where you're going with this.

0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So why would they need a litter box? They

0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 3>use the litter box correctly.

0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 4>But I do know people who have trained their cats.

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:00.719
<v Speaker 7>To you is a toilet?

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Is that true?

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.000
<v Speaker 3>That's that is factually accurate?

0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:12.239
<v Speaker 1>Well, what's your name again?

0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:15.240
<v Speaker 4>So I didn't even say that my name is Corey

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:16.839
<v Speaker 4>Corey Corey.

0:05:16.839 --> 0:05:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, Corey, let me ask you a question. Is there

0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:20.280
<v Speaker 2>anything in particular that you wanted to talk about. We

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.839
<v Speaker 2>can still we can keep talking about cats if you

0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>want to turk cats.

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh, let me ask you this. Let me ask you this.

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you this. Are you planning on having

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:31.239
<v Speaker 1>a child a little and will the child the cats?

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.760
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so that's a that's a good one. Me and

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 4>my fiance are not really into the idea of kids,

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 4>so I mean, that's just not an option for us.

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.840
<v Speaker 3>I guess you could say so, like.

0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:53.200
<v Speaker 4>I guess, you know, at some point, maybe the idea

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 4>of adoption would be on the table, but I don't

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 4>see that kids would ever be on the equation.

0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 3>So when we got offered these.

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:03.480
<v Speaker 4>Cats, we were like, well, we're not gonna have kids,

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:04.280
<v Speaker 4>so you know.

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:04.719
<v Speaker 3>Fuck it.

0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if there's a perfect equation for this,

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:11.920
<v Speaker 2>but I feel like nine cats is like pretty much

0:06:11.920 --> 0:06:16.599
<v Speaker 2>it's pretty much equal to one kid, maybe even maybe

0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:18.159
<v Speaker 2>even more than one kid.

0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, no, If anything, it's it's cost you know,

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:22.920
<v Speaker 4>because I've done the math.

0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 3>It's it's way cheaper than a kid, Like at least

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 3>half off.

0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>How much okay, how much money per cat? Are we talking?

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:34.279
<v Speaker 1>How much money per cat per per month? Are we talking?

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:38.559
<v Speaker 4>Oh that's tough.

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:51.760
<v Speaker 3>What would you say, man? Yeah, maybe like per cat? Yeah,

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:53.840
<v Speaker 3>fifty per cat.

0:06:53.920 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 4>I'd probably fifty to sixty per cat. All right, It's like,

0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:05.320
<v Speaker 4>come on, bro, I'm a fucking political science major.

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:06.680
<v Speaker 3>Don't ask me math question.

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:09.479
<v Speaker 2>Oh when you said, oh come on, bro, I thought

0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:11.560
<v Speaker 2>you were getting upset with me for not knowing that.

0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:13.960
<v Speaker 2>And I was about to be I was about to say.

0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, no no no.

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 2>I was about to agree with you. I was about

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 2>agree with you. I should know what five times nine is.

0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 2>I was about agree with you. I got to thank

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.600
<v Speaker 2>you for putting me in my place for not knowing math,

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 2>because you know, I'm an adult.

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:27.080
<v Speaker 1>I should know what five times nine is.

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 5>Dude, I'm right there with you anyway.

0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh wait, okay, so back to what you want. You

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:33.320
<v Speaker 2>said you was there anything you wanted to talk about

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:34.680
<v Speaker 2>in particular besides cats?

0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I guess the question would be, what

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 4>did you do before this?

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:43.160
<v Speaker 1>What did I do before this?

0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:45.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 4>I'm just curious because I kind of came across your

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 4>your entire thing by accident, you know, like I've had

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 4>friends who watched it, you know, since the beginning of

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 4>when you started all this, and I'm just curious how

0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 4>you kind of got into the whole, you know, Dick,

0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 4>because I mean, honestly, it's impressive.

0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:03.760
<v Speaker 3>It's random, and.

0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 4>It's like, I'm just curious how you came into that,

0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 4>and like what you did.

0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Before, Well, thanks man, I appreciate that. I I mean

0:08:11.680 --> 0:08:15.960
<v Speaker 2>before this. I let's see what. I started doing this

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:21.520
<v Speaker 2>in the summer of twenty twenty and like, shit, I

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>mean six, I started doing this like six months after

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I got out of college.

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Pretty much.

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:33.120
<v Speaker 2>I used to, like, I mean, I used to have

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:37.720
<v Speaker 2>been doing stand up comedy and fucking making movies and

0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:38.880
<v Speaker 2>shit since I was.

0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Sure.

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:46.360
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so when you say you did stand up, you know,

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.880
<v Speaker 4>I think a lot of people want that platform to

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 4>be able to express themselves and like give their own

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 4>kind of take on it. But I feel like a

0:08:54.800 --> 0:08:57.600
<v Speaker 4>lot of people try to like imitate the style of

0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:01.480
<v Speaker 4>other people instead of just express it themselves in a

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.840
<v Speaker 4>way that's kind of like, and I guess I can

0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 4>tie into a lot like everything, Like the idea of

0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:12.160
<v Speaker 4>being unique is inherently you know complex. So how did you, like,

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:15.720
<v Speaker 4>I guess, for lack of a better phrase, get the

0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:16.600
<v Speaker 4>balls to do that.

0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's funny you say that, because why, I started

0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:22.120
<v Speaker 2>doing stand up when I was in high school. So

0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:25.200
<v Speaker 2>I started when I was like sixteen, and I quit

0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:29.600
<v Speaker 2>when I was like twenty two. And for the first

0:09:29.679 --> 0:09:32.560
<v Speaker 2>half of my time doing stand up, I was just

0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:35.680
<v Speaker 2>I was pretty much imitating Hannibal Buriss. And then the

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.119
<v Speaker 2>second half of me doing stand up, I was imitating

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Norm McDonald.

0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, man, well you were right.

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:45.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean I was pretty much I was. I was

0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 1>just doing, you.

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Know, rip off Norm McDonald's shit. So, you know, I mean,

0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:55.480
<v Speaker 2>it's funny. I won't shut the fuck up about going

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:58.320
<v Speaker 2>on this tour, but it's funny because I had quit

0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:00.880
<v Speaker 2>doing stand up comedy.

0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.520
<v Speaker 1>It's so funny I had. So I'll tell you this.

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 2>I was in college and I was like at a

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>I was at this comedy show and like I wasn't

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:18.320
<v Speaker 2>on the show, but like I was there just to

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:20.680
<v Speaker 2>hang out, and I met that I saw this other

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 2>comedian there who I knew, who was also just there

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:26.600
<v Speaker 2>hanging out but not on the show.

0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>And I said to him, I was like.

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:34.719
<v Speaker 2>Man, isn't it nice to just like hang out and

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 2>enjoy the evening and not have to go on stage

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.120
<v Speaker 2>and like perform. And he looked at me like I

0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 2>was crazy. This comedian who wasn't on the show. He

0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:45.840
<v Speaker 2>looked at me and he was like, what are you

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:46.640
<v Speaker 2>talking about?

0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:46.840
<v Speaker 5>Man?

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:51.080
<v Speaker 2>You're a com as. I always want to be on stage.

0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Why do you think I'm doing this? I always want

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:56.520
<v Speaker 2>to be on stage telling jokes every night that I can.

0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:01.000
<v Speaker 2>And that's when I realized that I couldn't do it

0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 2>because I was like, how old was he? He was

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 2>a little bit older than me, but anyway, I was like,

0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:11.080
<v Speaker 2>I was just like, oh, if I don't feel like

0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:14.720
<v Speaker 2>that the way that this guy does, then I'm not gonna,

0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:15.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, make it.

0:11:15.920 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 1>And I should.

0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Honestly, if I don't feel that way about this, why

0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:20.679
<v Speaker 2>am I even doing it? If you know, if I'm

0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:22.080
<v Speaker 2>not like, oh, I always want to.

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:23.920
<v Speaker 5>You know, that's really good.

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 4>I think a lot of people, a lot of people,

0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:29.679
<v Speaker 4>you know, they get told this idea of like, if

0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 4>you're not passionate about it, or you're not doing something

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.600
<v Speaker 4>you enjoy, why are you doing it?

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:35.080
<v Speaker 3>And if you're not gonna be the best at what

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 3>you're doing, then why why do it?

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:39.120
<v Speaker 4>And I think that ties into like, you know, the

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:44.400
<v Speaker 4>whole capitalistic and great and imbumement and within the education system.

0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:46.559
<v Speaker 2>But all right, now you're getting all right now, now

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.679
<v Speaker 2>you're now, you're now, you're going all over the place.

0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:57.200
<v Speaker 2>But but but anyway, I I I wouldn't, I don't.

0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.560
<v Speaker 1>This story has nothing to do with capitalism. This is

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:02.400
<v Speaker 1>just a story of my whatever.

0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:07.320
<v Speaker 2>But I but I remember I walked home that night

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:13.079
<v Speaker 2>just fucking depressed because my whole entire fucking life was

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:15.640
<v Speaker 2>about like trying to do stand up and all my

0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 2>friends were from stand up and everything, and I was like, well, shit,

0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:19.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what.

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:20.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how I'm gonna what I'm gonna do anymore.

0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.280
<v Speaker 2>I'd like giving up, giving up, And now I'm doing

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.600
<v Speaker 2>these fucking live shows, which is like insane. It's a

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:32.240
<v Speaker 2>weird roundabout way back to it. But anyway, yeah, I

0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.320
<v Speaker 2>mean I was, I was in college.

0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:36.880
<v Speaker 4>School, okay, Yeah, No, I was just curious how you

0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:38.800
<v Speaker 4>kind of came into it. I think that's, you know,

0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 4>kind of it's kind of informative really that you know,

0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:44.880
<v Speaker 4>you felt that way. I think a lot of people

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 4>go through something similar in terms of, you know, the

0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 4>whole fuck this, So I'm just gonna give up.

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:50.520
<v Speaker 3>I know.

0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 4>I felt that way about, like, you know, law school

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:54.920
<v Speaker 4>before I just was like, fuck this, I'm just gonna

0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:57.839
<v Speaker 4>work at at law firms instead of getting all.

0:12:57.800 --> 0:12:58.600
<v Speaker 3>His debt, you know.

0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.760
<v Speaker 4>So I came back into it.

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's weird. It's very weird. I was thinking about it.

0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 4>The part that interests me the most morse because it's like,

0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:13.960
<v Speaker 4>I do think it's cool that you did stand up,

0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:16.200
<v Speaker 4>but I think that probably gives you like a background

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:19.400
<v Speaker 4>and you know, appealing to the different ways of framing

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:22.720
<v Speaker 4>a conversation with people. But like, how did you come

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.360
<v Speaker 4>how'd you come about like the idea of this streaming?

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 4>Like I heard you say one time, You're like, I'm

0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:31.920
<v Speaker 4>Green Oprah, and I was like, oh my god, this

0:13:32.000 --> 0:13:33.559
<v Speaker 4>guy's a fucking genius.

0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh well I said that. I hope, Oh god, I

0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:37.720
<v Speaker 2>said that in jest. I hope I'm not Green Oprah.

0:13:37.720 --> 0:13:40.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be Green Oprah.

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:42.920
<v Speaker 3>No, No, I'm sure you don't. I'm sure.

0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 1>How do I I just fucking around.

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't have like a cool story, Honestly, I just

0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 2>it's really just kind of fucking around, uh, fucking around

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:53.439
<v Speaker 2>on Reddit.

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:56.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh dude, that's even better.

0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:58.240
<v Speaker 5>Honestly, I wish I.

0:13:58.200 --> 0:13:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Had a cool story.

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:00.760
<v Speaker 2>I wish I I sometimes as I tell people that

0:14:00.800 --> 0:14:02.840
<v Speaker 2>a gecko visited me in a burning bush.

0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 1>But that's some story.

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:07.160
<v Speaker 3>Dream right there.

0:14:07.200 --> 0:14:07.400
<v Speaker 4>Man.

0:14:08.280 --> 0:14:12.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but no, the story of me has nothing to

0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:15.080
<v Speaker 2>do with the story of me being a gecko. It

0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:19.480
<v Speaker 2>has nothing to do with with capitalism or with you know,

0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 2>the the you know, whatever is going on in uh,

0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:25.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, between Israel and Palestine.

0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 1>It's a fully insular thing.

0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 4>What were you saying, So, if you had to choose

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 4>a spirit animal, would you say it is the ge.

0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I thought you were gonna ask me if I had

0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:40.200
<v Speaker 2>to choose a side between Israel and Palestine.

0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you didn't because I don't have an answer.

0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:44.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, I never do I have.

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:45.720
<v Speaker 1>A spirit animal.

0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I like the you know again, all my

0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:53.280
<v Speaker 2>all my realizations about this whole thing have come after

0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 2>the fact. They weren't like, oh, I you know, like

0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>talking to people, or I like trying to be funny

0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:03.520
<v Speaker 2>or any of that stuff. It all came after the

0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 2>fact that I was like, oh yeah, this thing that

0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 2>I fell into makes sense looking backwards, but I don't know.

0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 2>I like, like, I feel like I'm a sloth. I

0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 2>feel very slothy.

0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:20.800
<v Speaker 1>What's your fucking.

0:15:22.120 --> 0:15:23.040

<v Speaker 2>about me, which you got me to talk about myself.

0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I try to avoid talking about Yeah.

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 4>I've never seen that happen. Actually, that was kind of

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:54.240
<v Speaker 4>the goal, to be honest.

0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:58.800

0:15:58.880 --> 0:15:59.200

<v Speaker 6>you since the twenty twenty one.

0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:06.720
<v Speaker 3>Okay, you remind me a lot with my brother.

0:23:06.880 --> 0:23:10.159

<v Speaker 6>He's working on bass though. Yeah, he's in mechanic. He

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:29.760
<v Speaker 6>plays video games a lot. He collects machetes and knives,

0:23:29.800 --> 0:23:31.720
<v Speaker 6>not in a weird way, but more of a.

0:23:33.600 --> 0:23:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah in your opinion.

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 2>In your opinion, what differentiates collecting machetes and knives in

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:44.000
<v Speaker 2>a weird way versus just regular collecting them? Is it

0:23:44.040 --> 0:23:44.640
<v Speaker 2>the intent?

0:23:45.119 --> 0:23:45.760

0:23:45.880 --> 0:23:46.080
<v Speaker 5>Is it?

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:46.199
<v Speaker 4>Like?

0:23:46.280 --> 0:23:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Are you collecting the machetes and knives to kill bores?

0:23:50.600 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 2>And if you are, is it because you're a hunter

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:56.960
<v Speaker 2>and you genuinely need to kill the bores for you know,

0:23:57.280 --> 0:24:00.080
<v Speaker 2>sustenance or just because you know, I don't know you

0:24:00.080 --> 0:24:01.080

<v Speaker 6>with my boyfriend. I don't do much.

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:30.760
<v Speaker 2>Now I want to know more about working at Walmart.

0:24:30.760 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I've talked to anyone on the stream

0:24:34.080 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 2>as far as I know who's worked at Walmart. And

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.280
<v Speaker 2>I have my idea of what can I ask you?

0:24:40.280 --> 0:24:42.480
<v Speaker 1>What state you're in? Is that too much personal information?

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:46.000

0:24:46.000 --> 0:24:49.199
<v Speaker 6>if you if you've been to Utah before, and you

0:24:49.200 --> 0:24:49.639
<v Speaker 6>said you have?

0:24:49.840 --> 0:24:51.760

<v Speaker 6>Ok?

0:25:05.000 --> 0:25:08.440
<v Speaker 1>So you work at a Walmart in Utah? Is Utah?

0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:11.000

0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the paint, the paint the scene for me, I'm curious.

0:25:15.119 --> 0:25:20.359
<v Speaker 6>Well, there's very different kinds. Some are nice, somewhat a

0:25:20.440 --> 0:25:23.880
<v Speaker 6>little trashy. I want to say the one I work

0:25:23.920 --> 0:25:27.960
<v Speaker 6>in it's pretty decent. It's in a nice place where

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 6>there's nice people. It really just depends on where you

0:25:34.640 --> 0:25:36.359
<v Speaker 6>live at I'm gonna be honest.

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:39.399
<v Speaker 1>Okay, how long have you been working at this Walmart for?

0:25:40.520 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 6>We're about seven eight months now. I transferred from the

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 6>West Valley one. That one was okay. It was a

0:25:49.560 --> 0:25:52.960
<v Speaker 6>neighborhood Walmart, so it wasn't too bad. But people there suck.

0:25:53.720 --> 0:25:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Why did the people at the West Valley Walmart suck?

0:25:57.400 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 6>Very sassy with the attitude and always picking on you

0:26:03.480 --> 0:26:05.920
<v Speaker 6>if they didn't like you, talking round your back blah

0:26:05.960 --> 0:26:11.719
<v Speaker 6>blah blahs. There's a little drama that I didn't necessarily enjoy,

0:26:12.160 --> 0:26:16.560
<v Speaker 6>so secluded myself out of it.

0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Wait, so what did you transfer specifically because of all

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:22.280
<v Speaker 2>the drama going on?

0:26:23.560 --> 0:26:28.679
<v Speaker 6>No? Actually, I lived with a with my best friend.

0:26:29.720 --> 0:26:31.920
<v Speaker 6>She was pregnant, and she asked me to move in

0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:35.080
<v Speaker 6>with theory to help her around, along with her mom

0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:39.040
<v Speaker 6>and her boyfriend. And when I got there and I

0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:41.919
<v Speaker 6>got my job, they told me that was going to

0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:48.959
<v Speaker 6>be nine hundred bucks for a one bedroom in the bathroom,

0:26:49.000 --> 0:26:52.960
<v Speaker 6>and they said it included groceries. But I didn't really

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:54.560
<v Speaker 6>eat this kind of food they ate.

0:26:54.640 --> 0:26:56.720
<v Speaker 1>So I was wait a minute, you got whit?

0:26:56.800 --> 0:27:02.320
<v Speaker 2>So was nine hundred bucks to live with your friends

0:27:02.920 --> 0:27:05.520
<v Speaker 2>in in in one of the bedrooms?

0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:07.800
<v Speaker 1>M h not a one bedroom?

0:27:08.720 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 5>Yes, okay?

0:27:09.720 --> 0:27:13.560
<v Speaker 1>That trip me, tiny little room okay.

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 2>And and they and they were making and they said,

0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:18.040
<v Speaker 2>you chipped in for groceries and everyone kind of fed

0:27:18.080 --> 0:27:19.159
<v Speaker 2>off the same groceries.

0:27:20.240 --> 0:27:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that's not a bad deal.

0:27:23.920 --> 0:27:27.760
<v Speaker 6>Yeah yeah, it was pretty nice. But two of the

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:35.200
<v Speaker 6>people were only paying four hundred. So I I want

0:27:35.240 --> 0:27:37.720
<v Speaker 6>to say and that you as fair because I felt

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:40.159
<v Speaker 6>like I was being taken advantage of a little bit.

0:27:42.920 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 6>And I you know, I feel bad, but I'm striving now,

0:27:48.320 --> 0:27:50.920
<v Speaker 6>paying off my credit card. I paid off the loan

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:51.640
<v Speaker 6>a while ago.

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:56.679
<v Speaker 2>And so so do you did you make more money

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:58.840

0:44:30.960 --> 0:44:34.520
<v Speaker 1>You read your vows with a python around your neck.

0:44:35.719 --> 0:44:38.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, but not at like a real wedding ceremony. It

0:44:38.560 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 7>was in our living room with like four of our friends.

0:44:41.920 --> 0:44:46.239
<v Speaker 5>That's got who was the officiant for this, our friend.

0:44:46.080 --> 0:44:50.040
<v Speaker 7>Who we ordained on their car ride up there, you

0:44:50.080 --> 0:44:51.720
<v Speaker 7>can just like get ordained online.

0:44:52.360 --> 0:44:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, do you do you have photos of this?

0:44:57.160 --> 0:44:58.399
<v Speaker 1>This sounds kind of rad.

0:44:58.760 --> 0:45:00.440
<v Speaker 7>Oh, we we got a bunch of photos.

0:45:00.520 --> 0:45:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:45:00.760 --> 0:45:03.239
<v Speaker 7>And then my actual favorite part is you can see

0:45:03.239 --> 0:45:06.000
<v Speaker 7>the progression. So you see everybody walking up the driveway,

0:45:06.320 --> 0:45:09.480
<v Speaker 7>getting into the house, us doing the ceremony, and then

0:45:09.520 --> 0:45:12.040
<v Speaker 7>everybody going out to the porch and smoking a shit

0:45:12.080 --> 0:45:13.080
<v Speaker 7>ton of weed right after.

0:45:14.880 --> 0:45:19.600
<v Speaker 2>This sounds like of trippy wedding if I was stoned

0:45:19.719 --> 0:45:23.440
<v Speaker 2>and I was seeing like two people getting married with

0:45:23.960 --> 0:45:26.919
<v Speaker 2>a fucking python. So to the python is long enough?

0:45:27.160 --> 0:45:29.200
<v Speaker 2>Is the python long enough that it goes around both

0:45:29.239 --> 0:45:30.160
<v Speaker 2>of you guys's necks?

0:45:31.120 --> 0:45:31.359
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:45:31.520 --> 0:45:32.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, he could definitely do that.

0:45:33.400 --> 0:45:34.360
<v Speaker 1>That sounds like some.

0:45:34.520 --> 0:45:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Kind of like ancient ceremonial thing of like if you

0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:43.000
<v Speaker 2>have a python, bind both of you guys together, it

0:45:43.200 --> 0:45:46.160
<v Speaker 2>like makes your love everlasting or some shit. Is that

0:45:46.200 --> 0:45:47.200
<v Speaker 2>where you got that from?

0:45:47.360 --> 0:45:48.800
<v Speaker 5>Or are you just crazy?

0:45:48.840 --> 0:45:51.120
<v Speaker 7>I think so, yeah, we're we were pretty out there

0:45:51.160 --> 0:45:53.360
<v Speaker 7>people when we were living there, eating a lot of mushrooms,

0:45:53.680 --> 0:45:57.320
<v Speaker 7>doing a good amount of acid. Uh yeah, definitely in

0:45:57.400 --> 0:45:58.000
<v Speaker 7>that headspace.

0:45:59.120 --> 0:46:02.160
<v Speaker 2>So what happened that you guys were By the way,

0:46:02.280 --> 0:46:05.560
<v Speaker 2>I know your buddy went and paid the ten dollars

0:46:05.680 --> 0:46:10.000
<v Speaker 2>at the Universal Life Church to get ordained. But I

0:46:10.160 --> 0:46:14.520
<v Speaker 2>think the python was the true officiant of that ceremony.

0:46:15.440 --> 0:46:17.560
<v Speaker 7>I would agree with that. I would absolutely agree with that,

0:46:17.640 --> 0:46:19.920
<v Speaker 7>and I think the photos served that justice as well.

0:46:21.640 --> 0:46:23.440
<v Speaker 1>So what happened after that? How's the marriage?

0:46:23.719 --> 0:46:28.640
<v Speaker 7>So after that excellent? So we moved out of Burlington

0:46:28.680 --> 0:46:31.960
<v Speaker 7>because we really couldn't like keep going there and we

0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:34.080
<v Speaker 7>didn't really know where we're going to go. So we

0:46:34.200 --> 0:46:37.400
<v Speaker 7>came back to where my parents are, which is on

0:46:37.560 --> 0:46:40.920
<v Speaker 7>like the way east coast of Massachusetts, like below Boston.

0:46:42.600 --> 0:46:47.919
<v Speaker 7>Not to like super specifically geolocate myself, but that's where

0:46:47.920 --> 0:46:49.239
<v Speaker 7>we just wound up. And we were living with my

0:46:49.320 --> 0:46:51.640
<v Speaker 7>parents for like a year and a half, and my

0:46:51.800 --> 0:46:55.000
<v Speaker 7>dad owns like the strip mall and it's kind of

0:46:55.000 --> 0:46:57.200
<v Speaker 7>a rundown strip mall, and he had this one empty

0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:59.680
<v Speaker 7>space in it for a while, and he saw how

0:46:59.760 --> 0:47:02.960
<v Speaker 7>much my wife and I love to cook, and he

0:47:03.040 --> 0:47:06.440
<v Speaker 7>really pushed for us to put something into space. So

0:47:06.600 --> 0:47:08.440
<v Speaker 7>over like a year and a half, we suited it

0:47:08.520 --> 0:47:12.000
<v Speaker 7>out to be like this breakfast sandwich spot kind of deal.

0:47:12.920 --> 0:47:15.080
<v Speaker 7>So now every day we get up at four in

0:47:15.080 --> 0:47:17.000
<v Speaker 7>the morning and we go make bacon, egg and cheeses

0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:17.319
<v Speaker 7>all day.

0:47:22.640 --> 0:47:25.040
<v Speaker 1>So you your dad gave you a spot in the

0:47:25.120 --> 0:47:26.440
<v Speaker 1>mall to make bacon, egg.

0:47:26.280 --> 0:47:30.120
<v Speaker 5>And cheeses pretty much, Yeah, pretty much.

0:47:30.560 --> 0:47:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Where in the mall is this?

0:47:33.000 --> 0:47:34.880
<v Speaker 7>So it's it's not like a mall, it's.

0:47:34.800 --> 0:47:35.520
<v Speaker 5>Like a strip mall.

0:47:35.600 --> 0:47:38.360
<v Speaker 7>So it's like four storefronts in like one building. So

0:47:38.480 --> 0:47:41.120
<v Speaker 7>it's like the last storefront on the way right.

0:47:41.880 --> 0:47:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, So so uh he gave you like a

0:47:44.520 --> 0:47:47.160
<v Speaker 2>wole you have a whole ass location of making these bacon,

0:47:47.160 --> 0:47:48.200
<v Speaker 2>egg and cheese sandwiches.

0:47:48.640 --> 0:47:49.600
<v Speaker 1>What's what's it called?

<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's called the Black Cat?

0:47:55.640 --> 0:47:56.560
<v Speaker 1>The Black Cat?

0:47:56.760 --> 0:47:57.080
<v Speaker 2>What is it?

0:47:57.200 --> 0:47:57.319
<v Speaker 4>Now?

0:47:57.680 --> 0:47:57.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:47:57.920 --> 0:48:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Why is that? All you guys do is make the bacon,

0:48:01.680 --> 0:48:02.360
<v Speaker 1>egg and cheeses.

0:48:03.120 --> 0:48:04.240

<v Speaker 5>Business is good.

0:48:47.560 --> 0:48:49.880
<v Speaker 7>Business is really good, but managing it's a lot.

0:48:51.400 --> 0:48:51.600
<v Speaker 4>Fow.

0:48:51.719 --> 0:48:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you dropped out of school, and so you

0:48:55.040 --> 0:48:56.800
<v Speaker 2>dropped out of school, and so your dad was like,

0:48:56.840 --> 0:48:58.600
<v Speaker 2>all right, well, if you're not going to school, come

0:48:59.360 --> 0:49:01.200
<v Speaker 2>make bacon, egg and cheeses at my strip.

0:49:01.040 --> 0:49:02.640
<v Speaker 7>Mall pretty much.

0:49:02.760 --> 0:49:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's kind of you know, that sounds like a

0:49:06.760 --> 0:49:07.919
<v Speaker 1>fucking good gig.

0:49:09.320 --> 0:49:11.960
<v Speaker 7>It is a good gig. I feel very blessed for

0:49:12.040 --> 0:49:13.040
<v Speaker 7>the gig that I was given.

0:49:14.800 --> 0:49:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a picture hanging up on the wall

0:49:17.760 --> 0:49:21.400
<v Speaker 2>of the of the black Cats of the Python Wedding?

0:49:23.640 --> 0:49:25.080
<v Speaker 5>No, we don't.

0:49:25.280 --> 0:49:27.399
<v Speaker 7>We just have a lot of pictures of like art

0:49:27.640 --> 0:49:31.680
<v Speaker 7>and our black cat because we have black cats. I've

0:49:31.680 --> 0:49:34.359
<v Speaker 7>always grown up with black cats, and we struggled coming

0:49:34.440 --> 0:49:36.719
<v Speaker 7>up with a name and so my mom literally just

0:49:36.840 --> 0:49:38.439
<v Speaker 7>threw it out one day and we all just thought

0:49:38.480 --> 0:49:40.840
<v Speaker 7>that it's fit. So we just have a bunch of

0:49:40.880 --> 0:49:42.520
<v Speaker 7>pictures of our like black cats cats.

0:49:43.160 --> 0:49:47.960
<v Speaker 2>But no, I'm mildly, you know, I'm mildly disappointed that

0:49:48.080 --> 0:49:50.720
<v Speaker 2>the cat got the name of the of the fucking

0:49:50.800 --> 0:49:53.319
<v Speaker 2>sandwich place, because I feel like the python was putting

0:49:53.320 --> 0:49:56.040
<v Speaker 2>in a lot of work to bless your guys's marriage, and.

0:49:56.160 --> 0:49:59.160
<v Speaker 1>He should have. I mean, the pie. Here's the thing, the.

0:50:00.680 --> 0:50:03.320
<v Speaker 2>The scary Python doesn't sound like a good name for

0:50:03.400 --> 0:50:05.399
<v Speaker 2>a breakfast place, but if it maybe if you guys

0:50:05.440 --> 0:50:08.440
<v Speaker 2>were like, if you were running a bar, the python

0:50:08.440 --> 0:50:09.320
<v Speaker 2>would have gotten.

0:50:10.719 --> 0:50:15.439
<v Speaker 7>That's true. That's definitely yeah, maybe we'll open a bar next.

0:50:16.400 --> 0:50:19.800
<v Speaker 1>So so is there any more to the story.

0:50:22.040 --> 0:50:22.800
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty much it.

0:50:23.680 --> 0:50:26.719
<v Speaker 7>I was just because there was a I'm very proud

0:50:26.760 --> 0:50:28.839
<v Speaker 7>of the story because there was a period of time

0:50:29.040 --> 0:50:31.880
<v Speaker 7>in between me dropping out and us opening this restaurant

0:50:32.280 --> 0:50:34.960
<v Speaker 7>where everybody saw that I dropped out of school and

0:50:35.080 --> 0:50:37.200
<v Speaker 7>I wasn't working and I was just living at my parents,

0:50:37.280 --> 0:50:39.600
<v Speaker 7>and they were like, I don't know what this kid's doing.

0:50:39.680 --> 0:50:41.759
<v Speaker 7>I don't know where he's going. I'm worried about him.

0:50:42.760 --> 0:50:44.919
<v Speaker 7>I was smoking an insane amount of weed. I wasn't

0:50:44.960 --> 0:50:48.480
<v Speaker 7>doing anything, but now I'm doing this.

0:50:49.080 --> 0:50:52.320
<v Speaker 1>So are you are? Are you still smoking an insane

0:50:52.360 --> 0:50:52.879
<v Speaker 1>amount of weed?

0:50:54.480 --> 0:50:59.640
<v Speaker 7>I'm smoking insane amount of hash. So I've you know, diverted,

0:51:00.239 --> 0:51:01.280
<v Speaker 7>but I'm productive.

0:51:01.760 --> 0:51:02.320
<v Speaker 5>I'm productive.

0:51:02.400 --> 0:51:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Sounds that sounds worse than smoking an insane amount of weed.

0:51:06.800 --> 0:51:07.960
<v Speaker 5>No, no, no, no, it's much better.

0:51:08.040 --> 0:51:09.560
<v Speaker 7>Trust me, Trust me, Trust me.

0:51:09.600 --> 0:51:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Trust What's what? What even is hash? I don't really understand,

0:51:14.600 --> 0:51:15.160
<v Speaker 1>so I don't.

0:51:15.239 --> 0:51:18.680
<v Speaker 7>I don't want to like dominate the whole rest of

0:51:18.760 --> 0:51:21.879
<v Speaker 7>your stream and get into the uh you know, itty

0:51:21.960 --> 0:51:23.560
<v Speaker 7>bitty like details of it.

0:51:23.600 --> 0:51:25.040
<v Speaker 1>But it's what we can do. We can do the

0:51:25.120 --> 0:51:25.920
<v Speaker 1>hash minute.

0:51:27.040 --> 0:51:29.200
<v Speaker 7>Okay, the hash minute is they like take the plant,

0:51:29.320 --> 0:51:32.200
<v Speaker 7>they wash all of the like special stuff off the plant,

0:51:32.280 --> 0:51:34.560
<v Speaker 7>and then they press it. And what they press you

0:51:34.680 --> 0:51:36.360
<v Speaker 7>can dab. I don't know if you've heard of dabbing.

0:51:37.440 --> 0:51:39.439
<v Speaker 7>Some people are like really opposed to dabbing. Some people

0:51:39.440 --> 0:51:42.560
<v Speaker 7>are like diving's crazy. But I've got my my dabbing

0:51:42.640 --> 0:51:44.200
<v Speaker 7>style dialed in.

<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I will say.

0:55:01.640 --> 0:55:05.840
<v Speaker 7>The only downside is I'm a very artistic, in creative person,

0:55:06.440 --> 0:55:09.720
<v Speaker 7>and running this business has taken a lot of energy

0:55:09.800 --> 0:55:10.080
<v Speaker 7>from that.

0:55:13.440 --> 0:55:13.640
<v Speaker 1>House.

0:55:13.719 --> 0:55:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I feel like there's a lot of opportunities for you

0:55:15.400 --> 0:55:18.399
<v Speaker 2>to get creative, right, Like what like can you host

0:55:18.600 --> 0:55:20.800
<v Speaker 2>like poetry nights there or some shit like that?

0:55:21.840 --> 0:55:24.120
<v Speaker 7>We could definitely do that. I'm like, I really like

0:55:24.239 --> 0:55:27.720
<v Speaker 7>glass blowing. I blow glass in my uh parents' garage,

0:55:28.200 --> 0:55:30.960
<v Speaker 7>and like that's my specific like art of choice and

0:55:31.320 --> 0:55:33.160
<v Speaker 7>just that specifically I haven't been able.

0:55:33.239 --> 0:55:36.400
<v Speaker 5>You like to make bongs, I like to make bonds.

0:55:36.560 --> 0:55:38.479
<v Speaker 5>You saw that quick?

0:55:38.840 --> 0:55:39.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:55:39.080 --> 0:55:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. When people say they're into and maybe this is

0:55:41.960 --> 0:55:45.440
<v Speaker 2>insulting to the glass blowing community, but when people say

0:55:45.480 --> 0:55:48.759
<v Speaker 2>they're into glass blowing, I just like you can. You

0:55:49.000 --> 0:55:52.840
<v Speaker 2>either make from my uninformed opinion, if you're into glass blowing,

0:55:52.880 --> 0:55:56.560
<v Speaker 2>you either sell vases to rich people or Rick and

0:55:56.640 --> 0:56:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Morty bongs to like Stoner sixteen roads now.

0:56:01.640 --> 0:56:05.720
<v Speaker 7>But the bonds that I'm into, they're bonds getting sold

0:56:05.760 --> 0:56:08.799
<v Speaker 7>to other rich people. They're like bonds for rich people.

0:56:09.560 --> 0:56:12.399
<v Speaker 1>You make bonds for what isn't a bong for rich people?

0:56:13.280 --> 0:56:15.040
<v Speaker 3>I don't make bonds for rich people.

0:56:15.239 --> 0:56:18.560
<v Speaker 7>But like the type of glass blowing I do. The

0:56:18.719 --> 0:56:21.600
<v Speaker 7>like best artists of the glass blowing I do, they

0:56:21.680 --> 0:56:24.440
<v Speaker 7>make like one hundred and twenty five thousand dollar bocks.

0:56:25.520 --> 0:56:34.360
<v Speaker 1>One hundred and twenty five thousand dollars bongs. Yeah, you should,

0:56:34.880 --> 0:56:35.200
<v Speaker 1>you should.

0:56:35.280 --> 0:56:37.040
<v Speaker 2>You should make the black Cat. I feel like you

0:56:37.080 --> 0:56:40.759
<v Speaker 2>could make the black Cat a breakfast, make it like

0:56:40.840 --> 0:56:44.520

0:56:44.600 --> 0:56:47.719
<v Speaker 2>like a head shop, but you also sell cheese sandwiches.
