I 25 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: went on a run and um, for the first time 26 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: in so long. If I'm being honest with you guys, 27 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: I UM am no longer a pod at. I don't 28 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: smoke weed anymore as of a few days, and it 29 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: is my new reality. And I'm very excited about it. 30 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: But that's all I'll say. I am. I'm just done. 31 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: And that's not having any judgment for anyone who does 32 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: want to continue doing it. And I just I just 33 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: realized that my shame about it was not lifting. And 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: I wrote a bar bunch of I wrote all the 35 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: reasons I had to quit, and I couldn't stop. Like 36 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: there was I didn't even make it to the reasons 37 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: to keep smoking, because I the infinite reasons to quit. 38 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: We're just like, okay, the writings on the page, like 39 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: let's let's hang this up. So and I also kind 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: of was thinking about when I quit drinking. One of 41 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: my arguments was like, yeah, it was, it's so fun, 42 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: but you you had your fun. You had so much fun. 43 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: Drinking like that part is over, Like you know, you 44 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,639 Speaker 1: you leave high school, and even if you leave high 45 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: like love high school, you have to leave. You just 46 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: go Okay, that was high school. I'm gonna miss it. 47 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: But that part of my life is done. And like 48 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: my weed smoking days are done. I had my fun, 49 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,080 Speaker 1: I got what I needed from it, and onto the 50 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 1: next addiction. So uh, who knows what that'll be. I'm 51 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: gonna fill the whole show, um and you'll probably hear 52 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: me go through the stages of you know, just trying 53 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: to find something elson dealing with feelings. What I have 54 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: found is that when um, I haven't so it's been 55 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: a few days now without having any and um my, 56 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: you know what we did for me is like my anxieties, 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: it would just like mute them, mute my feelings, and 58 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: so I would feel my feelings a little bit, I 59 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:20,839 Speaker 1: would let them out, but they would all I would 60 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: mute them as soon as they came out with weed, 61 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: and then they would be manageable. But now that I 62 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,959 Speaker 1: don't have weed, I am not letting the feelings out. 63 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,399 Speaker 1: I am walking around like a clenched fist. Like I 64 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: feel like a clenched fist, constantly. I can't cry. I 65 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: can't I can't let out anything because I'm just scared. 66 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: I can't come. I can't cry. And this has all 67 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: been since I've stopped smoking weed, and I'm like, why 68 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: can't I release anything? And it's like, okause I'm so 69 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: scared if I do, it won't stop. But um, but 70 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: I'm really excited about realizing all these things. None of 71 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: this is bad. But I am walking around like a 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: clenched fist um. And then, but oddly enough, when I 73 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: went on a run, because I went on a run 74 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: yesterday because I was like, I don't know, I just 75 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: felt like my lungs. I was like, oh, good, you're 76 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: purging your lungs of all the tar, and like, what's 77 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 1: it resin, Let's go for a run. It was so 78 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: hot outside, humid gross did a run? Felt good about it? 79 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: Was texting Carlisle about smoking or you know, quitting weed, 80 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, my phone started blinking the 81 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 1: screen and then it just went black and I was like, oh, 82 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: and it was still on. I could still like the 83 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: toggle on the side that makes it go to vibrate 84 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 1: or or silent um that was still moving and I 85 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: could I could still. I knew it was functioning, but 86 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: the screen was not being it was not tappable, and 87 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: it was cooked totally black. But the phone works. So 88 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: I'm pressing all the buttons trying to get it to work. 89 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm actually like, you know what good this is. I 90 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,239 Speaker 1: just don't want to be on my phone anymore tonight. 91 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: This is now. I can't even post to Instagram. This 92 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: is great. No, I just need a break. I was 93 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: able to text on my um computer and that was 94 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: it enough for me. So then I'm going to bed 95 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: last night, and that was a little rough because I 96 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: usually like curl up in the dark with my phone, 97 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: and instead I was reading Tom sharp Ling's book like 98 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: with the light on. And when you read books in bed, 99 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: like I have to keep switching because I don't read 100 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: like on my back like a person in a movie, 101 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: like a you know, like Meg Ryan and when Harry 102 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: met Sally. I'm not like perfectly stationed like with a book. 103 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: I like twist and turn. It's just hard to read 104 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: a book, uh in bed, a paper book, and um, 105 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: but I did it. I was like, this is like 106 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: old timey ship here. Um, I had a little gaslight. Uh, 107 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: call back Um, I had a man there who was 108 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: telling me the way I see things was different than 109 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: how I perceived them. Um. But anyway, I was reading 110 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: by the light of the light and uh, by the 111 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: light of the lamp, and all of a sudden I 112 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: started and this is like, you know, minutes, I'm in 113 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: the book, and I'm just like, wow, I'm really like 114 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: just a real normal person that's like non addictive to 115 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 1: her phone at all. And then I hear my phone, 116 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: so I hear voice, like a dim voice, and I'm like, 117 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: what the fuck? And I don't realize what's happened. Now 118 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: I realize what's happened because before, when I was toggling 119 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: with my phone, I pressed both buttons on the side 120 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: and it started doing that like siren noise that on 121 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: iPhones that can alert the cops, like if you hold 122 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: your phone wrong. But I always like I do that 123 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: probably once a day, accidentally holding my phone and I 124 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 1: just press X and then it's off. If you don't 125 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: press exit calls the cops. Right, I don't have any 126 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: way to press X. So it started calling the cops, 127 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: and it was it was going for minutes because it 128 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: had been a long time since I had done that. 129 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: So I I am hearing a voice. I listed the 130 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: voice and it says, thank you for calling the emergency services. 131 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: Your your call is very important to us. Please stay 132 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: on the line. An operator will be with you shortly. 133 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh my god, I fucking called nine 134 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: one one and it's calling and I can't hang up. 135 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 1: Pressing all the buttons, it's not hanging up, and I'm like, 136 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna wait online on hold in bed and 137 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: till they pick up so I can tell them it 138 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: was an accident. Please don't send anyone. Well, guess what 139 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: you got, y'all. Twenty minutes go by and I am 140 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: on hold with nine one one. Has anyone heard of 141 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: anything this absurd? You call one there's an emergency. This 142 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: isn't I'm not calling Verizon or American Airlines to change 143 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,559 Speaker 1: my flight. You don't get put on hold for nine 144 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: one one. And you know it was eleven o'clock at 145 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: night in St. Louis. I just I couldn't believe it. 146 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: It got to the point where I go, I have 147 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: to go to bed and I have to hang up, 148 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: but I don't know how because my phone will not 149 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: hang up. So then I realized that I had the 150 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: little thing on the side of my phone that we 151 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: realized Andrew didn't know about. Remember that knowing a little 152 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: thing that you put an earring in, you like put 153 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: a safety pin in the hole and pop out the 154 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: pin the the SIM card, and that was the only 155 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: way that I could get it to shut off. So 156 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: I took out the SIM card and it shut off. 157 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: But it's wild to me that you can be put 158 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: on hold for nine one one. And I had seen 159 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: it on the St. Louis Reddit that someone had said 160 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: our emergency service line as like is as a busy signal, 161 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: and I was just like, there's no way. They probably 162 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: call it the wrong one impressed. I don't know how 163 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: you sunk up nine one one, but there's no way 164 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: you get put on old twenty minutes. I could have 165 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: been bleeding to death or in a situation that I 166 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: needed rescuing and I would have been on hold. I 167 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on there. It made me really 168 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: sad and actually very grateful that I wasn't actually in 169 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: an emergency. So I don't know who to call if 170 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 1: something actually bad happens to me. Maybe I should call 171 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 1: American Airlines because I do have status with them and 172 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: they get me through, or maybe one needs a little 173 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: thing where they go you are third in line and 174 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: we'll call you back, like maybe it needs that. Also, 175 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: I was thinking about when you actually set off the 176 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 1: alarm on your phone, you know the one that starts 177 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: going rear rear rear. It's so loud. And I was 178 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: thinking about when I've wanted to call nine one one 179 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 1: and be rescued, um because I could, I couldn't maybe 180 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: dial it, and I just I'm holding my phone. The 181 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: one time I can remember, I was in an uber 182 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: that I got into because their license plate checked out. 183 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: It was the same Uber that was on the app 184 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: that showed me, but the color of the car was 185 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: different than make of the car was different, and there 186 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: were two guys driving. When I got in, two guys 187 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: were driving, and there's a guy in the passenger seat. 188 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, is there someone's shadowing and Uber? So I 189 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: get in and I go two guys and they're like, yeah, 190 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: I used my friend. I was just like, okay, I 191 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: shut the door. The locks on the door were sawed off. 192 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: I am now fucking panicking because there are two guys 193 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: that are not they are there. They don't look like 194 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: Uber drivers to me. They look like the car is 195 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 1: in a condition that a criminals car would be in. 196 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: Or Andrew Collins room, you know what I'm saying, Like, 197 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: it's not like Uber clean and and I'm saying Uber 198 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: as in the company, not like Super and it's not um, 199 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: it's just and So we're driving, and I remember they 200 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: were I was gonna know within I was texting with 201 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: Andrew saying, I'm in an Uber. I'm really scared. Here's 202 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: my location. It's two guys, it's a different color of car. 203 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. I'm about to know. 204 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: If I get am I'm about to be raped and 205 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: murdered at this next turn. Either they make this turn 206 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: and go to where I want to go, or they're 207 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: gonna take me somewhere else. And they made the turn 208 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: into the salon that I was going to, and I 209 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: just was like, oh my god, thank God. But I 210 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: was thinking about maybe using that thing, you know, like 211 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: the emergency thing, and then I go. I wouldn't though, 212 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: because they would hear the emergency alarm going off and 213 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: know that I'm doing it. But they so I'm conflicted 214 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: as to what I should have done. In that moment. 215 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: That was the scariest moment of my fucking life. Like 216 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: when you determine that it's either going to be if 217 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: they turn right, you live, and if they keep going, 218 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: you're about to be raped. Like I don't know if 219 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: any other women out there have experienced that, where you 220 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: you go, oh my god, I'm about to be raped, 221 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: like you kind of like almost know it and maybe 222 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: you actually were. And I'm so sorry that happened to you. Um, 223 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: but I had that moment where I like kind of 224 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,479 Speaker 1: I wrapped my head around it and I was like, Okay, 225 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: get through this, like do what you can get, like 226 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: fight for your life. And and thankfully I didn't need to. 227 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: But now I know that if even if I would 228 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 1: have called, I would have probably been put on hold. 229 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: It's really weird, and I don't know why that happened. 230 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: I just always assumed nine when one picks up right away, Um, 231 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: we got to get to the rest of the show. 232 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: Sorry to end on a weird note, but that that 233 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: just took me there. Who knows gear up for Andrew's 234 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: coming in and it's a doozy the call back to 235 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: a thing you haven't even heard yet Andrew. All right, Hey, Andrew, 236 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: I just sleep last night. Uh all right, well will 237 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: you think about that? Um, I'll just tell our listener that. 238 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: Um well, they already know because I'm going to tell 239 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: them at the top of the show. But uh, I 240 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: was running late obviously. Today we have a guest on 241 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: the show, Tom sharp Ling, who wrote a book that 242 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: I've read thirty pages of, which is pretty good for me, honestly. Yeah, 243 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 1: I'm on page thirty two and it's like an actually 244 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: the hardcover book. He did send me the digital copy 245 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: to which I usually read on my phone, but my phone, 246 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 1: as we know from the intro, which I'm gonna tell 247 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 1: you later because this is taped out of order. Uh 248 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: it went could put last night. I feel free. But 249 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 1: um yeah, he is. Uh, he's someone that I mean, 250 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: I'll tell him when he when he gets on the show. 251 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: Do you know who Tom Sharpling is? Unfortunately no, but 252 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: I did. I did some research I really liked. I'm 253 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: gonna get into it with him, um about like his 254 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: approach to this book because I'm actually weirdly enough, I'm 255 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: meeting with book people later today to help facilitate my 256 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: book because I can't do it on my own. And 257 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: I think that's just an important lesson to learn, is 258 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 1: like you want to do all these things alone, Like 259 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: you might have your whether it's a book, whether it's 260 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: like cleaning out your garage or you know, getting fit, 261 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: Like if you could do it alone, you would have 262 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 1: done it. You know, if you do a book for 263 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 1: the person that only wants to read fifty pages, you 264 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: know me, I can't keep it to just and and 265 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: if I do it, I'm gonna do like Moby Dick. 266 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: But then you do maybe do fifteen books but only 267 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: fifty pages of book. Yeah, I don't want to do 268 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: that because I never buy books that are fifty pages 269 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: because I'm like, this is seventeen bucks for fifty first, Like, 270 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: let's see how much of this book is, um, seven 271 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: dollars US. How much do you think it is Canadian? Uh? 272 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: Seven dollars of US. It's thirty dollars Canadian. And I 273 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: would say book prices were the first time you saw 274 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: Canadian prices and we're like, what's going on here? Remember 275 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 1: back in like middle did you ever pick up books 276 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: in middle school? Probably not? Did you do scholastic? I did? 277 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: I would remember wordly wise um, what's that? That's how 278 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: you learn vocabulary words, but book wise words words vocabulary 279 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: you really do struggle with the use. Yeah, do you 280 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: say said of the word? You do? You say? Oh? 281 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: What did I like? You said vocabulary? Okay?

It might be I think it's regional 284 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: just to your mouth, it's a very small district in 285 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: Andrew's mouth. Do people say regular? And well, there's other 286 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 1: us regular vocabulary? Usually usually usually yeah, it's you vocab 287 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: But I said, yes VOCABU. What's that movie Ferris Bueller?

I guess that's why I didn't 292 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: really think about it, because I guess I slept through 293 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: the night. Oh you know what it was, I didn't 294 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: have any caffeine pass two changes to everything. I gotta 295 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: stop with.

I honestly did not think about that moment 382 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: at all. For the rest of the night. It was 383 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: nothing to do with that. I swear to God, Dude, 384 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 1: I swear to God. I would admit I can be 385 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: very petty about this.

Andrew, let me just let me just 388 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,719 Speaker 1: present my side of it before we bring in our 389 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: guests to this toxic environment. I only am stubborn about 390 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: those things when I know that I wrote it, and 391 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 1: I just want credit when I wrote something, it's that's 392 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: a natural thing. Now, if I'm wrong, that's another thing. 393 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes I don't remember it correctly. But in my mind, 394 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: if I wrote it, I'm not just saying that. I'm 395 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: not never giving you a joke that if you wrote 396 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: a joke in my memory, you wrote it, I'll get 397 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: that to you. But if it but let's just say, 398 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: if I did write that joke, should I let you 399 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: just have it? I think that. Do you think I 400 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 1: would ever claim to write a joke? But I just 401 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: thought you were wrong, so I was correcting you. It 402 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: wasn't like, oh, you you're making this up right. I 403 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: didn't think you were making it up. I thought you 404 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: remembered it frustrating to me because it's like you're you're 405 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 1: literally the start a show.

Because so now 409 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: you go on a radio show and I go, hey, 410 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: Nikki can when we talk about a comedy bit for 411 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: a second, and you go, well, we it was I. 412 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 1: It was I.

You did it 429 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: on the radio, of Being. You didn't hear me on 430 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: the radio, Andrew.

I said, we wrote 436 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: a joke, and then I told the joke.

We have to 462 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: pretend like we get along. It's like when your parents 463 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: fight and they're like, oh, the kids coming in the room. No, 464 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: we didn't.

My parents didn't fight. They just 467 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: would just take care of things. And then have you 468 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: just realized, like, oh, I think people are mad at people. 469 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: You realized twenty years later, I think people were really 470 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: mad at each other.

They're pretty solid with that. Yeah, 473 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: that's really impressive when I hear about that, I always 474 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: that takes a lot of strength to not to save 475 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: it for later and to keep it from your kids. 476 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: Like I remember my brother in law when he saw 477 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: our family for the first time. He was just like 478 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: you guys, just like fight right away right away, and 479 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: you just like you fight a lot and never witnessed 480 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: it growing up with his family. They just hit it. 481 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: And there's some good things and bad things about that. 482 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: Probably if you hold things in. Yes, we should have 483 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 1: held him in today a little bit. Tom sharpon Welcome 484 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: to the Show. Um, I met you in person one time. 485 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: I believe I was super intimidated when I met you 486 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 1: because I was a fan of the best show. And 487 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: I say was because I mean, I am I haven't 488 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: listened a while, because I don't listen to anything, but 489 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 1: you're still doing the show. Right. Yeah. I don't listen 490 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: to anybody's things either. I barely want to hear my 491 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: own things. I don't like hearing come out of my 492 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: own mouth. And that's enough anguish for the world. Isn't 493 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: it interesting that we have to promote things that we 494 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: wouldn't watch ourselves, Like I can't watch myself, do you do? You? 495 00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: Are you able to read your own book? Yeah? I do, 496 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: I am. It's funny. I can listen to the sound 497 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: of my voice and I can read things I wrote. 498 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:10,360 Speaker 1: I don't like looking at myself do things though? Why 499 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: is that? You think? Probably something to do with my face, 500 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: right right? And when you do interviews and they go 501 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 1: it's gonna be on camera, you have to you have 502 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: to be on zoom, like we're not going to put 503 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: this anywhere, so don't worry. But like, yeah, we can 504 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: see you. I'm fine with the way you look. But 505 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 1: I always do go like, can we just do zoom 506 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: with cameras off? Like do you need to see me? 507 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: And when I yeah. But the but the weird thing 508 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: is I don't have a problem when I was like 509 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: editing my special I can watch myself on mute. I 510 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: just don't want to hear the things coming out of 511 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 1: my face because I'm more, um, I get angrier at 512 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: myself for not being funny enough as opposed to not 513 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: looking the right way, even though I'm very insecure about 514 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 1: my looks as well. I don't. I don't know what 515 00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: that is, do you human? In condition? I really related 516 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: to your struggle with the idea of writing a book 517 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: in uh in the beginning of your book, which I 518 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: whenever I attempt to write a book, I always have 519 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: to write about the fact that I'm writing a book, 520 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh, should I do this? But I 521 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: always enjoy when an author acknowledges what a struggle and 522 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: endeavor this is that they're about to do. You added 523 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 1: the fears of the book, being like you probably, I'm 524 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: guessing for a while you wanted to write a book, 525 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: and you knew you had a great book in you, 526 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: but you also don't want to try to do it 527 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: because what if you don't and then you know once 528 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 1: and for all that you did it, Like, oh my god, yeah, no, 529 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: I was very um. I built it up so much 530 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: in my mind where it's like, if I do this book, 531 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: or when I do a book, it's gonna have to 532 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: be the best book that's ever been written, because now 533 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: I'm in competition with every book that's ever been written. 534 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: And then you go to the bookstore and you look 535 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: around and you realize just the sheer all him a 536 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: garbage that is considered a book, and you're like, of 537 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: course I could write a book. To look at these 538 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: like Jason Alexander writing a kid's book and these things 539 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: that probably took an afternoon, and yes, and I'm just like, 540 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: and I'm not putting Jason out, I would write a 541 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: kid's book. Also, No, he's asking me to. But but 542 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: it's that kind of thing where it's like, it's like, 543 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: what am I so hung up on with this thing? 544 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: Just go do it? Just do it, and you can 545 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: always do another one if this one isn't good enough. 546 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: Like that you kind of rationalize that. But you did 547 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: say that Rob Kronkowski wrote a book, and that was 548 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: the final straw for you to be like, I can 549 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: do this, yes, because I I I'm pretty sure I 550 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: don't know how many books he's I don't know, he 551 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: might have written more books than he's read with with 552 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: that one, because I think the numbers one and put 553 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: that's up for a dispute, and who knows that he 554 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: wrote that one? To be honest, he might have looked 555 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: at that and said, I did, and someone made it. 556 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: He had a ghostwriter, but only because that writer is 557 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: now a ghost that he worked with because he died. Uh. Um, well, 558 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: I wanted to say that I did begin your book. 559 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: I'm on page thirty three. Um. I'm reading the hard 560 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: copy of it, which you graciously sent to me, along 561 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: with the digital version, which I usually read on my phone, 562 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: but my phone died last night and I was I'm 563 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: reading your book. It. I'm just so happy that you 564 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: address those fears because I have that also, going into 565 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: the idea of like wrapping my head around writing a book. 566 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: And then I just love the way you write, and 567 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: you'll go on little tangents you come back to the 568 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 1: story you're writing is so funny. You have great stories. 569 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: You hate Billy Joel. You get into that almost right 570 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: out of the gate. What's the hatred for Billy Joel? Basically, 571 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: it's it's it's it goes back to his music. Ultimately, 572 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: it's not good. I don't hate the human. I don't care. 573 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: So you're fine with him driving his car through a house. 574 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: But the song though, is bad. Sure. Look I'm not 575 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: a Long Island property uh owner, so he's not a 576 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: threat to me. I don't have to worry about my 577 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: house getting crashed in. But it's just the music. I 578 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: always thought when he does MSG sixty shows in a row, 579 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: it's like, get a friend, Like, don't you have any friends, Billy? 580 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: Like this is what you need to like fill a hole? 581 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: Like that's kinda why do you play golf seven hours 582 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: a day? Because I need a friend. I need a friend. Never, 583 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: it never ends. How many friends do you have as 584 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: an adult?

It's It's funny because 607 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: I gave it a lot of thought of what kind 608 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: of book I wanted to do, and I was thinking, 609 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: maybe I'll try to write a novel or something like that, 610 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: and then it just always felt like, now I think 611 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: I need to kind of tell some stories from my life. 612 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: And then if I was going to tell them, then 613 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: I kind of needed to Just there's that point where 614 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: you're just like, am I gonna am I gonna half 615 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: asked this and not tell certain things? Or am I 616 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 1: just going to tell them? And I was like, no, 617 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna tell this stuff. So I just decided 618 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: if I tried to think in my mind, I'm only 619 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: gonna do one of these ever, so let's make it right. So, yes, 620 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: I like that statement that you made of um in 621 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: early on in the book, because I'm early on in 622 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: the book, but where you say I'm I was scared 623 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: of telling certain things and what if certain people read 624 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: this and waiting till maybe there like gone so you 625 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: could write about it, like did you mention that too? 626 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: I believe you did, UM, but like just saying, you 627 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,959 Speaker 1: know what, I got to tell the truth and I'm 628 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: going to say some things in here that are going 629 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: to be very hard for me to even relive, but 630 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm just going to take a chance and do it 631 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 1: and and see what happens. Has the fallout from that 632 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 1: been what you've expected? Has has it been okay? Oh yeah, 633 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: it's been really positive And people have kind of um, 634 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: people have found a lot of commonality with certain stuff 635 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of stuff about mental illness and 636 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: things that I went through at different points in my 637 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: life that are in there. And and it's nice if 638 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: people have come and say, like, oh, I have you know, 639 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: like my brother or sister went through that, or I 640 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: went through it, or my parents went through my father 641 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: went through. So it's been kind of validating in that 642 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: regard that I did it the way I was supposed 643 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: to do it. But I also, honestly I just would 644 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: have done it this way even if people were not 645 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 1: happy with it, I would still be happy with it. 646 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: Good because you've you've look I mean the mental illness stuff. 647 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of it too, And I struggle 648 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: sometimes disclosing some of the struggles because I go, it's 649 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: these things are ongoing and they might come back. And 650 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: it's easy to go, that was my past and I'm 651 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: over it, and I was addicted to this or I 652 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: did this, and it's easier when when you've recovered. But 653 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: there's some things that I talked about and I go, 654 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: this might rear its head again, pretty like I might 655 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: actually still be in this, And that's a little bit 656 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: harder to to talk about. I guess if you're kind 657 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: of still in it, Um, do you feel did you 658 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: have did you have any sense of that or like 659 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: feeling about that? Yeah, I mean, because this stuff, there's 660 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: no guarantees with with things like mental illness that it's 661 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: not gonna come back. It's there's no It's like there's 662 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: no finish line on any of those things where it's like, 663 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: and that's one of the things like with certain uh 664 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: there's certain comedians and certain friends, friends or whatever people 665 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: of my life. The one thing that kind of I 666 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: can't ever kind of wrap my head around is when 667 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: people are like, well, I had this problem and I 668 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: did that, but that's done the end and I'm past it. 669 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: It's just like sometimes these things circle back, you know, 670 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: we might want to be a little less uh. You 671 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 1: might want to take care of the present also with 672 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 1: things and not just act like, oh, I was somebody 673 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: with problems or I I was not a great person then, 674 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: but now I am and that's over. It's just like, 675 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: well you still gotta do some upkeep here, yeah, and 676 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,960 Speaker 1: that that's uh. That's a double edged sword for me 677 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: because when I have quit things in the past, like 678 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: when I quit drinking and smoking there I used a 679 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: method called the Alan Car method. And part of that 680 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: method is the second you put down your last cigarette, 681 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: you're a non smoker, Like you can identify like you're 682 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: a non I'm a non smoker. It was the second 683 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: you take that last sip and you put down that glass. 684 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: I don't drink alcohol and even though you just had one, 685 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 1: and it helps you to do that, to like to 686 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: frame it that way so that you're not someone who like, oh, 687 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 1: I'm quitting, or like I truly am a smoker, but 688 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not doing it right now, because then you'll 689 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,359 Speaker 1: always kind of identify as one and probably slip back 690 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: into it. But I think you're right, of um I 691 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: I sometimes, like with my eating disorder, I'm like, I'm done, 692 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 1: I figured it out, not going to do that anymore. 693 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: And the second I start thinking that way, I start 694 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: doing little things with food that make me go, oh 695 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: this can this can I need to do certain up 696 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 1: keep on some things, but then identify as a non smoker, 697 00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: non drinker. It's like I have to do either or um. Yeah. 698 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 1: It's like when when you were like drinking and falling 699 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: off like in the past, and you can go, oh, 700 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: that's in the past because and you could like put 701 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: your like your finger on those stories because they were 702 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: so bad. And then when something is like a little bad, 703 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: you know now because I've stopped drinking and I've worked 704 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: on some ship, you can't you don't really you don't 705 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,279 Speaker 1: want to address it because you're like, well, it's not 706 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: as bad as it was, right, And I don't know 707 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: I I and you also don't have alcohol to make 708 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 1: for it, so now you're just being you know, bad, 709 00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: with no assistance from a mind altering substance. But the 710 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: thing is our minds, our mind altering, like we everyone 711 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 1: goes like I don't know, I I just I have 712 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: this joke right now about like pedophilia, and like how 713 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: like taking a shower with my nephew, and how I 714 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: didn't want to do it because I'm like, what if 715 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: I'm molest him? And my sister's like what And I'm like, 716 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't know when I'm capable of like I don't know, 717 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm going to. But like, no one 718 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 1: wants to be a pedophile. It just like occurs to 719 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: you one day. No one's like I would love to 720 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 1: one of the kids. So why would I set myself 721 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: up first scenario where it might occur to me that 722 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: that's who I like? Even the joke is obviously like 723 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,919 Speaker 1: I'm not, and that's the most outrageous thing you could say. 724 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: And the fact that I'm even scared of being one 725 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: would lead you to believe I am not. But like 726 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: no one you can bump your head and become something weird, 727 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: you know, like the you can't trust that your mind 728 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: is always going to be the same. Right, that makes sense, 729 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:18,760 Speaker 1: I can get you. Yeah, I think it makes sense. Okay, 730 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: we'll just leave that there. Then just left that was 731 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: like I think the zoom is frozen. I'm just gonna go. 732 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: Let's get to the news.

Whenever you get a tattoo, and you're eventually 763 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: going to probably reach a point where you go that 764 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: was I. I kind of regret that or ruinds me 765 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: of a dumb time in my life.

It's like when 769 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: you get an interview and you meet up Starbucks for 770 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: the interview for a Starbucks job or something like. I 771 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,919 Speaker 1: just love the idea. Like this kid was like, Oh, yeah, McDonald's, 772 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,839 Speaker 1: that's where the best tattoos are. You know. I'm sure 773 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: they had a prior friendship. I gotta assume they were 774 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 1: friends before this. I mean unless the guy like put 775 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: in Craigslist like come to McDonald's. What would you have 776 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: gotten as a tattoo if you were a child? Oh, 777 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: at sixteen? Um, probably like a lacrosse I'm picturing this 778 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 1: being a kid. So this is probably a sixteen year 779 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: old I guess. I'm guessing Yeah, if I was ten, 780 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 1: probably shark bites, the fruits sack, the white one, the 781 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: mysterious white one. Oh, that's what everyone would think that. 782 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: I'd get the color one that no one wants, orange one, 783 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 1: the orange hammerhead. They're pink in there sometimes, Tom, what 784 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: would you get as a tattoo as a ten year old? 785 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: Probably back then I probably would have gotten some like 786 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: Night Court, like some TV show I watched a lot of. Yes, 787 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 1: I would have gotten a say by the Bell, like 788 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: like I would have gotten maybe Zack's phone or something 789 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 1: that's deftually would have been Yeah, I would have been 790 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 1: actual size too. Um yeah, I feel like. But the 791 00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: things that you even want on your body when you're 792 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: twenty four, you're not gonna want later on. I mean you, 793 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 1: I got a Jaguar tattoo at forty. I don't I 794 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: didn't want this. I don't know what I was doing 795 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: it faith look cool and I thought they were in Florida. 796 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: They're not in Florida. You were. You were going through 797 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: something when you started getting tattoos, and which I think 798 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: is a normal thing, like you just you. You just 799 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: got one one day, and I like the feeling of it. 800 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: It's very um meditative. And to go through pain like that, 801 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, like you enjoy the pain. It's a 802 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: weird thing. I guess it's like tying up your ball 803 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 1: as well having sex or something. I don't know, like 804 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 1: getting the ship beat out of you, like cutting a 805 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: lot of people that want to cut and want to 806 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 1: like suffer. I've been a cutter before and like you 807 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: just want to punish yourself for feeling like a stained person. 808 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,319 Speaker 1: And I do mean the band stained without any got 809 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 1: a tattoo of shark bites. But I think I would 810 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 1: get addicted to tattoos because the pain would feel so good. 811 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean I surgically removed a wart from my knee 812 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 1: without anesthetic. That's the way we're just figuring love cutters, like, 813 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 1: because you could be you can have tattoos in your 814 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: eyelids and people would think you're more normal than a cutter. Yeah, 815 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: you're right, and I'm not even getting you.

Alright, machine Gun Kelly reveals dramatic head 917 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 1: tattoo as he shaves his hair off. You say that 918 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: some people do have birthmarks that you don't see until 919 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 1: they shave their heads. That's weird. And I was actually 920 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:56,839 Speaker 1: thinking about machine Gun Kelly looks like someone with a 921 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: gigantic penis because he is very long. Um, and I 922 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:02,880 Speaker 1: think about him a lot anyway, So I guess I 923 00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:06,360 Speaker 1: care about the story because, um, he's running out of 924 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 1: space to get tattoos, clearly, And this is someone that 925 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:14,160 Speaker 1: probably does tattoos to feel pain and to deal with 926 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 1: his feelings because he's a He's a guy that definitely 927 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,359 Speaker 1: suffers with I think he also potentially was wearing some 928 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: kind of wig or he his hair was thinning, he 929 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 1: had hair transplants from us, and maybe now he's finally like, no, 930 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 1: this is me. I'm a bald guy. I'm going to 931 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: lean into my baldness. I feel comfortable now. Maybe when 932 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 1: you get more hair transplant, you gotta shave it all 933 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: because of just the you know, like sometimes I think 934 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 1: you have to shave your head completely to get more 935 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 1: hair transplants.

It's so true because when you meet 1013 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 1: a celebrity, you do you. I think everyone goes through that, 1014 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 1: especially some when you really admire. You're like, I want 1015 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 1: to prove to them.

You want to really prove your your fandom. 1019 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:50,240 Speaker 1: So what did you decide? Oh? I I thought about 1020 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 1: I remembered that I had been in a cab in 1021 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 1: Memphis earlier that year and was talking to this old 1022 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 1: grizzled Cabby. I was like, so, what bands the you 1023 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 1: see back in the seventies and he was like, ah, 1024 00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: I saw this band. Humble Pie was the best band 1025 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: that ever saw live. They were the greatest. So I 1026 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 1: was like, oh, well, maybe Patti Smith saw humble Pie. 1027 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 1: So I was like, it's when I say to her, like, 1028 00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: how is how are your shows going? Bupp up? Like 1029 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 1: the and then here comes the here comes the neutron bomb, 1030 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,239 Speaker 1: and I just say, um, so did you ever see 1031 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:28,120 Speaker 1: humble Pie back in the day? And I've never said 1032 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 1: like back in the day as a phrase, I've never 1033 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 1: set out grizzled taxi trac I said it, and she 1034 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,640 Speaker 1: the look on her face, she just was like, oh, yeah, 1035 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:40,919 Speaker 1: it's before my time. And it wasn't before her time. 1036 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,359 Speaker 1: She just and then she's like, I think she got 1037 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 1: off at the wrong floor just to get out of 1038 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: the elevator. Then I picture her taking that like starewell 1039 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:58,399 Speaker 1: in the hotel upstairs, realizing the doors no access now 1040 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 1: she has to go all the way back down and 1041 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: like like just to avoid whatever that is so tom 1042 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 1: It's so funny because I honestly do think that's a 1043 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 1: good question. And if she would have maybe seen humble 1044 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: Pie back in the day and had a story, she 1045 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: would have really appreciated that question. And you don't know 1046 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,879 Speaker 1: what kind of mood she was in or what she's 1047 00:55:22,920 --> 00:55:25,359 Speaker 1: just getting done with, or how she's feeling, like, there's 1048 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,960 Speaker 1: so many factors, but that is truly so uncomfortable. And 1049 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 1: what when you what did you do the rest of 1050 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: the day with yourself. After I got off the elevator 1051 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 1: and my friend John Worcester, who uh you know I 1052 00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:41,480 Speaker 1: do stuff on the radio with, he was in the 1053 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:43,359 Speaker 1: lobby and he's liked it. How did it go? And 1054 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 1: I told him and then he looked like, oh no, 1055 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 1: that like it was one of those things where he's 1056 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: just like, oh, that story dies right here, like no one. 1057 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,320 Speaker 1: And then the next time I got on the radio 1058 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,239 Speaker 1: and I was just like, I gotta tell it.

Let's 1149 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:32,720 Speaker 1: go into final thought and close it out with, um, 1150 01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 1: your most humiliating this moment maybe the beginning of this podcast. 1151 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 1: Oh that wasn't humiliating. I'm sorry that I raised my 1152 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 1: voice and got it emotional like that. No. I think 1153 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 1: everyone that listened is probably like, finally, Andrew, yeah, let 1154 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: her have it. I don't want it to come off 1155 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 1: like that. I just I just don't know it makes sense, 1156 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:56,200 Speaker 1: and I'm just saying that I hear what you're saying, 1157 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 1: and I can be that way sometimes, but I'm I 1158 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:02,000 Speaker 1: was just trying to tell you. In my mind, I 1159 01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:04,320 Speaker 1: don't I want to have credit for the things that 1160 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 1: I do, and in my mind, I wrote that. So 1161 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 1: that's why I said something about it. And I wouldn't. 1162 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: I would always give you credit if and I didn't 1163 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 1: think that you were taking credit falsely and just being 1164 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: like I wrote that, I thought that you thought you 1165 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 1: wrote it too, like we both thought like I never 1166 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 1: I never would assume that you are taking that you 1167 01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 1: would make up something. But it's not even about like 1168 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,360 Speaker 1: these are just exacts. It's just like I just don't 1169 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 1: sometimes I just get upset when I feel like you're 1170 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 1: competitive with me, when when there's no reason to be, 1171 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,080 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, if this is 1172 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:40,480 Speaker 1: a competition, you've one like and I know that sounds 1173 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 1: like I'm just saying, like career like you've one already 1174 01:01:43,120 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 1: like and competitiveness, but I just don't see it like competitiveness. 1175 01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: I guess it it is um it's it's it would 1176 01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: indicate that I'm competitive, But it's more about just like 1177 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: I like, I'll give you credit when I when I 1178 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,800 Speaker 1: know that a joke you wrote for me kills, and 1179 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:05,240 Speaker 1: like I've said before, like and that line you gave 1180 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 1: me killed, Like, I'm not gonna be in denial that 1181 01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:09,560 Speaker 1: I think we both just had a different memory and 1182 01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,480 Speaker 1: I just wanted to make it correct as opposed to 1183 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: because I know I remember being proud of coming up 1184 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:18,280 Speaker 1: with walking lunch of shame, and then when I heard 1185 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 1: you laughing at I was like, he's laughing in a 1186 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 1: way that he is like celebrating that he wrote that, 1187 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:23,560 Speaker 1: And that's why I had to be like, dude, you 1188 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 1: know I wrote that right, and that to me is 1189 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 1: the complete opposite. And I and I should have been 1190 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 1: more understanding of that you were having the same feeling 1191 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 1: of like no I wrote that way, we're both having 1192 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: the same feeling and knowing the same truth a lot 1193 01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 1: like remember on the show when we both heard Noah 1194 01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 1: mispronounced that thing and then we were both wrong. I 1195 01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 1: bet Bill Dixon wrote that fucking line like Garrett wrote it. 1196 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:52,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I will give it to you if you 1197 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: have a your note didn't have proof that you wrote it. 1198 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm really sorry that. I'm sorry.
