And that's you know, that's where story 68 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: time comes in, folks, A moment in time, something that 69 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: I'll never forget. Something happened to me at work that 70 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: very day, on a normal Tuesday morning at the gas station. 71 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: At least I thought it was. It's one of those 72 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,559 Speaker 1: days where you're like, things seem to be going well 73 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: and then something very tragic happens, something that may change 74 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 1: your life forever. And some people, when they have those 75 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: big changes, it's like, all right, my life. I had 76 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: to of it from here, right, like this is a 77 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: monumental bookmark in my life, and I had to pivot 78 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: and for the for the positive. Some people it is 79 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: for the negative, and there's repercussions from it. This is 80 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: one of those things where I'm not so sure that 81 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: it is going to be negative. It was certainly in 82 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: the moment, is it is it gonna be long standing? Negative? 83 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's something that maybe I'm 84 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: going to be able to grow from and something that, 85 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: you know, maybe will make me a better person. I 86 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: certainly think it's given me a little bit of content 87 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: in order to be able to create a funnier or 88 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: in a new joke. I don't know if it's funnier, 89 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: but a new joke and being the guy that I am, 90 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: I use that moment to start my set with when 91 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: I haven't been on stage for nearly a year. I 92 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 1: don't know if that was the best move. Most people 93 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: would want to be prepared and have, you know, jokes 94 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: that they that they're working on, that they have worked 95 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: on it maybe the normal go tos, you know, stuff 96 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: they've done before.

That's gonna sit with 191 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: me for a little bit, Okay. And that's why at 192 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: the top of the show we had a warning. I'm 193 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 1: telling you right now, if you get queasy or you 194 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: just don't do well with bodily fluids, this one may 195 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: not be for you, man, because what I dealt with 196 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: at the gas station on Tuesday, nurse, I mean, this 197 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: is what nurses deal with. This is that's what they do. 198 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: That's what they get paid for. They they know they 199 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: don't like doing it, shoot, but they do it. This 200 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: is what they encounter. I generally have to deal with 201 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: mess on the counter from the fountain pop machine or 202 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: spilled ketch up, or you know, somebody using a cup 203 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: and then not wanting it and just leaving it on 204 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: the ground like I'll pick that up, Like that's that's 205 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: my mess, not this. So somebody comes over and it's like, no, 206 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: it's one of my employees. And he's like, hey, uh, 207 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: you gotta go in the men's room. Somebody made the 208 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: biggest mess in there and it's bad. And he immediately 209 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 1: leaves where I'm at and goes to the front to 210 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: be busy at the register, and this is a This 211 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 1: is a guy who definitely isn't looking for things to do. 212 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 1: He's just like, yeah, I'm out here. I am so 213 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: busy right now. So that's that's my first clue that 214 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: this is going to be a bad, bad deal. 215 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 2: So then. 216 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 1: One of my coworkers, she goes back there. She overheard it, 217 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: and she's like, I gotta see this, and I'm like, ah, 218 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: you see it.

I started in this business, 269 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: and ever since then, I felt like I've been one 270 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: of the best to do it. I really do and 271 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: there have been times in my career that I've proven 272 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: that very thing, whether that's been in my service, whether 273 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: that's been in my friendliness, whether that's been in my 274 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: ability to make money, cut expenses, or manage expenses. I 275 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: have been able to do the things that need to 276 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: be done when they need done. This is one of 277 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: those moments. I don't know that's how to to hie 278 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: myself up for this. I'm like, motherfucker, nobody has been 279 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: more prepared to clean up this shit today than you. 280 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: You have been trained and prepared and gone through the 281 00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: ringer of every part of this business for this very moment. 282 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: That shit on that wall is just a challenge for you. 283 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: And you've got this. And I had to hype myself up. 284 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: You know, I'm like an Olympic athlete, like getting prepared 285 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: to go and compete for an gold medal. I'd get 286 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: mamba mentality. Quite frankly, I really did. So I went, 287 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: I got all the cleaning materials I needed, and trash 288 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 1: bags and like towels and paper towels and all the things, 289 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: all the cleaners everything. I put on these like elbow 290 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 1: high rubber gloves. I put on a mask. This is 291 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: a first mask I've had in years. It's like twenty 292 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 1: twenty was such a terrible time for the world, you know, 293 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: because of the COVID. It's like that was peak time, 294 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: you know from grocery employees, like we were essential back then, 295 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: like we mattered. People were so freaking nice to us. 296 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: Sure we had to wear a mask at work, whatever 297 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 1: it really is, what it is. It wasn't anything that 298 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: ever really bothered me, but people people like we mattered 299 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: to people. They counted on us. We had to show 300 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: up to work to take care of people. We were 301 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: all they had. We were literally the only social interactions 302 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: a lot of people had. Now twenty twenty four shot 303 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: on the walls for us. Please. Oh the smell. I 304 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: don't know if I'll ever get that smell out of 305 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: my nose. Hopefully none got in there. I mean it 306 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: was liquid, like it was splashing. So I get myself 307 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: hyped up right, and guys are standing out front, like 308 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 1: lined up, and I'm like, guys, that the sign, the 309 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 1: cone like everything, like you could smell it, like you know, 310 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: something's bad in there, Like use the use of the 311 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: women's Not many women come in here. What what is 312 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: that about? Gas stations? It's not that women don't go 313 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 1: to gas stations. They certainly do. But the grocery store, 314 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 1: the primary shopper is female. It is not that way 315 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: at the gas station. It is definitely more. It swings 316 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 1: more male than female. Is it that females don't like 317 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: to get gas or don't get gas very often? I mean, 318 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 1: is there a male counterpart the one getting the fuel? 319 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 1: They just don't go in the gas station to get 320 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: the goods in there? Is there something wrong with the 321 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 1: item selection within there? I find that fascinating. If there's 322 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: studies being done about that, I would literally read it 323 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: student to the game. Baby. So I get there, I'm like, 324 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: just use the other rest. There's two doors there, just 325 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: use the other one. I go in. Luckily the mask 326 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: helped with the smell. Luckily I go in there, and 327 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm just like, how like, how do I even attack this? 328 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: Because it's everywhere like everywhere? And I start with the 329 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: walls and I figure I'll work my way down and 330 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: and I did have one, and it was early on. 331 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: I did have one moment where I was gagging so 332 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: hard that I did think I was going to puke 333 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 1: in my mask. And I'm like, well, like where I 334 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 1: instantly thought, well, if I'm gonna puke, i have to 335 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: leave the bathroom because I'm not gonna puke all over shit. 336 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's just gonna keep coming, like it's just 337 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: gonna be It's gonna be a problem for a while, 338 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: and then there's no way I'm gonna be able to 339 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 1: clean this up. And then who's gonna clean it up? 340 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: Nobody has prepared their life for this moment more than me, Like, 341 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: how would we get through the day. We'd have to 342 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: close it off for the whole day, and that's just 343 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: bad for business. So the smell, I mean just the smell. 344 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: I got through it. I didn't puke, and I never 345 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: met it right mamba mentality. And then uh got that 346 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: cleaned up, got the toilet cleaned up, got the floor 347 00:20:52,880 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: cleaned up, everything was sterile, whole place for business. But 348 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: there's no airflow in that bitch, and it's still smelled terrible, 349 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: like it just was in the air, and I didn't 350 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: want to like prop the door open and have that 351 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: fucking shit smell all through the whole store. So it's 352 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: like air frash and I'm just constantly spraying air freshener. 353 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,479 Speaker 1: It was awful. Like the only way to describe this 354 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: is like if somebody, you know, when you take a 355 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: hose that's running and you put your thumb over it 356 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: and it just kind of sprays everywhere, Like that's what 357 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: somebody did to their asshole, Like, but they put their 358 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: thumb up to it and just sprayed shit everywhere. Like 359 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: that's just not not something I thought was gonna have 360 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: on a Tuesday. So I got it cleaned up. It's 361 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: pretty freaking proud about that. I go outside and get 362 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: some fresh air, and I'm like, I've gotta like get 363 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: this out of my head, right, Like this is just 364 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: something that happened and I need to move on. So 365 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: I take the trash bag and it was a full 366 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: trash bag. I take it out to the dumpster. Now, 367 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: the dumpster's in the parking lot, but it's on the 368 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 1: other end of the part. It's at the far back 369 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: parking lot. It's like nowhere near the station itself, so 370 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: it's over there. But it's a windy day. I go 371 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 1: back inside.

And they're like getting this shit smell because 393 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: I even have like a little vestibule like when you 394 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: walk in so it's not like the smells in the 395 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: gas station. It is not anymore. I mean, it isn't. 396 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't a men's room. I mean it was smelled 397 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: like hell in there for the whole day, but it 398 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: smelled terrible outside too, And I'm like, dude, that was 399 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 1: when of your own like, get your people in line. 400 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 1: We didn't do this. That was one of your people 401 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: shitting all over my walls. And you know, you know, 402 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: if you listened to the show, you know I have 403 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: Crohn's disease. So it's not like I don't understand that 404 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 1: when a moment hits, like things are going down like 405 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: sometimes when you're ill. And that's the thing. I have 406 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: to think that this this guy who went into the 407 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 1: gas station and ship over the walls, I have to 408 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: think he stopped there on his way to the er, 409 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: like he had to be on his way to seek 410 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: medical attention had to him. So I get it. I 411 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: don't necessarily always have like that issue of when the 412 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: moment's gonna hit, I'm gonna shit myself. I have those farts, 413 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: like I'll have those like you know, burning trash farts 414 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: at times that I can't control. And it's just it's 415 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna happen. Like I get that from time to time, 416 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: and that's why I sleep with the weighted blanket. You 417 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: just kind of gotta have to hold it down, you know. 418 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's the only way I guess to 419 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: overcome that rotting carcass smell in my house at night. 420 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: But you know, having that issue, that's the thing I've 421 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: learned that you just have to be strategic at where 422 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: you're at when that happens. You know, the best place 423 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: to fart at the grocery store specialty cheese section. Yep, 424 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: people are gonna think that that cheese is aged perfectly 425 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: for him. Yeah, So that that was the thing I had. 426 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: This like traumatic work moment happened on Tuesday, Tuesday night, 427 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: first performance in nearly a year. It was the end 428 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: of twenty three, the last time I was on stage. 429 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: Now Here's why was it because I wasn't getting bookings. No, 430 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 1: I had opportunities. In fact, there was a couple that 431 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: I was committed to that was gonna do. And then 432 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: my health has not been good for the majority of 433 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: this year. It just it hasn't The before mentioned crone 434 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: disease has just read havoc on me in twenty twenty four.

Finally that is that is helping me. 437 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,919 Speaker 1: I'm starting to feel good again.

One of the feature of things they 493 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: could see is like a men's room with shit over 494 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: the walls, and we'd have to like pump and smell 495 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: and just give them like kind of that full experience. 496 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 1: I have a picture of it. I took a picture 497 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: of it. This is not something I wanted to do. 498 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 1: This was something I had to do just so that 499 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: I could prove that it actually happened. I'm holding onto 500 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: this picture just in case somebody the haters are like, 501 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: that didn't happen, Jeremy, You're a liared. This is that 502 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: there's nobody just shits on the wall all around the toilet, 503 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: and I'm like, though, this happened, and I cleaned it up, 504 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: and that toilet was pristine when I was done. I 505 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: would put the picture out there if people wanted to 506 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: see it, but I am not about to put it 507 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: out there without some kind of warning. Put the warning 508 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: in front of the episode, you know. And we were 509 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:21,479 Speaker 1: called a weirdly wholesome podcast, comedy podcast, because most comedy 510 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: podcasts out there aren't so aren't so wholesome. Well, today 511 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: we threw that out the window. Huh. Yeah.
