61
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,399
Speaker 3: middle or you're in the two.

62
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: I'm in the middle. I've done forty three cities so far.

63
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: Every show is a gift, you know. As you know,

64
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 2: there have been some how shall I say issues with

65
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 2: the previous administration. He let me off the market for

66
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: a while, little no fly list action.

67
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 3: Holy I'm oh my god, Oh for real.

68
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: I was on the no fly list. I was on

69
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 2: the Inner Powl list. I was on the terror watch list. Yeah.

70
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: So that god, I know. And so I have a

71
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: whole onunder list of stuff. I had cancer, I had addiction.

72
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: I was on a fifty one to fifty cycle for

73
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 2: three days because I'm nuts. I'm getting divorced. My life

74
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: is such a shit shield. But I've never been funnier.

75
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 1: Come to see me live, I think true, though, I

76
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: think that is always the way. When your personal life

77
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: is falling apart, your stage show is fuck, it gets great.

78
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 2: I mean, it's what I live for and every show

79
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 2: is a gift. And to not have been able to

80
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: do stand up for six and a half years.

81
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 3: That's nuts.

82
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: Oh so yes, I actually I'm not making fun of

83
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: the topic. Don't everybody calm down. But I have been

84
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 2: diagnosed with complex PTSD, and so I talk about it

85
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 2: in the show. I talk about all the crazy remedies

86
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 2: that I do. I'm on every bullshit herb you've ever

87
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: heard of, and vitamin and I do Kundalini yoga. I

88
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: don't even know what that is, but I do.

89
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 3: Nobody does tell me, does.

90
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 2: Part of the Kundalini? Are you Kundalini's.

91
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 3: No, No, not least time.

92
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: I went to college, like okay, so.

93
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 2: There might be. It might be a rich family. I

94
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 2: don't know what it is. So I talk about nothing

95
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 2: is off topic, and yet don't worry, you still get

96
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 2: some good juicy celebrity dish in there as well.

97
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: Oh, that's great. So how many cities do you have

98
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: left still?

99
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: I have at last count, I have twenty two left,

100
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: including the wheelchair. And you're in Los Angeles, Carnegie Hall,

101
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: October twenty sixth of New York. Of course, New Year's Eve,

102
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: my first New Year's Eve gigs since I got canned

103
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 2: from CNN. So like, after all those years, you know,

104
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 2: when you're a comic, that's a big Night Year's Eve.

105
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,039
Speaker 2: I mean in the day when I was playing Carolines

106
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 2: in New York, I think I did a triple on

107
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: New Year's like three shows. And so I'm going to

108
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: go at the Chicago Theater on New Year's Eve at

109
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 2: eight pm. And can we be honest, you want to

110
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 2: do the EPM show on New Year's You don't want

111
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 2: to do me, you don't want to do the ten

112
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 2: and then the freaking countdown people are drunk.

113
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: I can't imagine.

114
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 2: It's just and you know you want them to laugh

115
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: through the vomit. But you don't judge. You don't, no, no, no,

116
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 2: I don't.

117
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 3: Well I don't know if you've noticed, but in the

118
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 3: six and a half years since you've done CNN, they

119
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:17,239
Speaker 3: haven't exactly soared to New Heights, so I think Ala.

120
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 2: Say, man, I'm such a bitter bitch.

121
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 3: I love you. I think they're at the bottom of

122
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 3: the barrel.

123
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: Right, Oh my god, marry me.

124
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:31,679
Speaker 3: But that's so exciting. And congratulations on the Carnegie Hall record.

125
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 3: That's record crazy.

126
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 2: It is. I call it the church. And I'm not

127
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: a religious person, but just people don't know, but the

128
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 2: great venues and when I play Boston, I have the

129
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 2: privilege of playing Symphony Hall and you almost don't even

130
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 2: need a microphone. And I had like answer. So they

131
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 2: took out half my left long and then during the

132
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: surgery they paralyzed my vocal cord. So I just got well,

133
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 2: you can't see my scar. But I just like six

134
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: weeks ago, you guys, I got an implant. I called

135
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: my boob job. I got an implant, and I left

136
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 2: vocal board and I can talk.

137
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: You can sound like yourself again. I sound like myself

138
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: and amazing.

139
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: I want to go out there and go hello. The

140
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: and a half years my voice was up here like this,

141
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 2: it was gnarly, you guys. I'm just so freaking happy

142
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 2: to be back at work and the year with you

143
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 2: guys incredible.

144
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: That's amazing. So when did you, like the cancer happened?

145
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: How long ago?

146
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: I was a year sober, And I say that.

147
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 3: Because they're called bullshit, You're a bullshit.

148
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 2: They're protecting me from myself, which is but yeah, they

149
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: found the cancer when they were looking at like some

150
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: abdominal extra or whatever. And the cancer happened after I

151
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 2: was a year sober. Because this and I have to

152
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: make fun of myself because why not. But after the

153
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 2: Trump thing, I actually didn't know what to do with myself.

154
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 2: I was in the middle of a fifty city tour

155
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: and then that infamous photo dropped in the photographer. It

156
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: was an idiot sold it to TMZ, I think, and

157
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: Harvey Levin is a gay guy who's a Trumper, which

158
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: is a mystery to me. But that picture was then

159
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 2: used very much in tandem with the Department of Justice.

160
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: I was investigated very seriously by the US Attorney's Office

161
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: and the Secret Service. Yeah, within the DOJ. They put

162
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: me on the no fly list, the Inner Polist, and

163
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 2: the Tarror watch list, and so you know, it made

164
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: it pretty much impossible for me to work. And I

165
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 2: was stopped at every airport and they took my phone

166
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 2: and my passport and they go away for an industry

167
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: and you're kind of at the mercy of like whoever

168
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 2: is working at the airport that day, and that shit

169
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 2: was like really scary for real. And then so I admit,

170
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: I just got addicted to prescription pills. But the reason

171
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 2: I make fun of it is number one, everybody's been

172
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 2: touched by addiction in some way. And number two, who

173
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 2: becomes a junkie at fifty seven years old? I'd bekay

174
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 2: talk about a late starter fifty seven and I'm like,

175
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 2: I should do I should be a junkie, And then

176
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 2: I freaking did so then I got sober, and they

177
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 2: found the cancer and then took out half the long

178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 2: and I will say, I don't really appreciate how you

179
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: guys are flaunting your two lungs in my face.

180
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: Right now, So sorry, you never know what.

181
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: Actually I just have one giant lung.

182
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 2: Okay, that's enough. That's actually all you need. I've done

183
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 2: a lot of research on this.

184
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: I made fun of it all.

185
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: You gotta make fun of it all. I mean fun

186
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 2: of people, places and things. And you know, it's it's

187
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: a it's a different time, and it feels weird to

188
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 2: not have done standard for six and a half years,

189
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: but I am so thrilled. I had three shows over

190
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 2: the weekend, one in Norwalk, Connecticut, and then I did

191
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 2: a double and Pete Town for the gays and Honey.

192
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 2: I went out there like dirty whore. I spray Hann

193
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: myself with this cheap spray cand I went out in

194
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 2: a bikini at my age, in a bikini nice and

195
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 2: the gays enjoyed it. And then I, like I said,

196
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 2: I did two shows that I'm so grateful to have

197
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 2: like apparatus that works, because, like I said, as a

198
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: stand up, to lose a vocal cord is a serious thing.

199
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: So I'm, like I said, I'm just glad to be

200
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 2: freaking functional. I'm just happy to be upright and functional.

201
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 3: That's exciting.

202
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: I am too, as you've got on such a roller coaster.

203
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: That's like, for six years, so much has happened to you.

204
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: That again, it's been horrible for your personal life, but

205
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 1: my god, you've got to have some good material.

206
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: I'm a riot, i am. I've never been funnier, you know.

207
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 2: My dear departed friend Joan Rivers would also would always say, oh,

208
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 2: the worst of your personal life, The funny you are.

209
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: It's just the law. Yeah, so he's cheering me on

210
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: from haven't I held? Because she was the boss, I

211
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 2: call her the boss. I was raised on Joan Rivers

212
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 2: and Don Rickles, and it's sort of my actual parents.

213
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 2: But they were busy drinking a box of wine. Sure,

214
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 2: I don't judge them like you do. I can hear

215
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: you judging my parents because.

216
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: I got a box of wine on my fridge right now.

217
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: Good for you, Good for you. In fact, did they

218
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 2: you guys? Did they stop making My mom's favorite was

219
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 2: called two buck chuck?

220
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's three bucks now. I think they

221
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: caught three buck chuck.

222
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Okay, that would not fly with the Griffin

223
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: household at all. My mother would be in her moon

224
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: moon negotiating at the cash register, making everybody sorry they

225
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 2: showed up that day.

226
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. When Kurt and I lived in we lived in

227
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 3: New York at the same time. It's about ten fifteen

228
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 3: years ago. And when they put that trader Jos's Joe's

229
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 3: in Manhattan on twenty third Street, there was a line

230
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 3: down the road and I was like, I didn't really

231
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 3: understand it, and I stopped. I was like, is there,

232
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 3: what are you guys waiting for and the person said

233
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 3: three dollar balls of wine and I was like, oh yeah,

234
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 3: and they're like yeah, three buck Chuck is all of

235
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 3: us three dollar wine in Manhattan.

236
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 2: And it's almost like respectable now because it's not a

237
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 2: cute little nickname and people enjoy it. And so when

238
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: I mentioned in the show, like you said, every person

239
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: in that audience, whether you drink or not, everybody knows

240
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 2: free buck Chuck. My mother really should have bought stock

241
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 2: in the company, frankly, because she really was a fan,

242
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: if you know what I mean. And oh my goodness,

243
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 2: by the way, I also it helps my PTSC for real.

244
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 2: But I have four dogs, and I bring one a

245
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 2: different dog, but I bring one of the four dogs

246
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 2: with me on every leg of the tour.

247
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: Oh wow, which one's the best traveler?

248
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: The best traveler is probably little Elliot. I have two

249
00:12:54,920 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 2: dogs named Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson, and they are

250
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 2: detectives of the New York Special Victims Unit. I don't

251
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 2: know if you've.

252
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: Heard were these are very special victims.

253
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: Very special victims who often victimize me. And I named

254
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: on that because when I was on tour overseas after

255
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 2: the Trump photo because I knew I couldn't work here,

256
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: but I learned wherever you are. I mean, I did

257
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 2: shows in reiku Vic, I did shows in Singapore. Wherever

258
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: you are. Law and Order SVU is on. So when

259
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 2: I got home, I said, Okay, I'm going to rescue

260
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 2: two puppies and I'm going to name them Olivia and Elliott.

261
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: And Elliott's probably the best traveler because he holds his

262
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: tea the longest on me.

263
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 3: What a skillet, little Elliott, This big bladder. That's nice, right, beautiful. Well,

264
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: kurty b let's get into a news story.

265
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 1: All right, it sounds good to me. Uh this one,

266
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: it doesn't have a great time. Well, no, this I

267
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 1: love this one. Uh there's a new jokes phone on

268
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 1: a quiet street in DC, and I'll explain what that means.

269
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: And Joe jokes there's a Joke's phone. This is a

270
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: pretty great story. This was sent in by d Rachel.

271
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: Thank you, d Rachel. If you have a strange news story,

272
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: you can send us to our instagram, The Bananas Podcast

273
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: on Instagram or the Bananas Podcast at gmail dot com.

274
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: This was in The Washingtonian, written by Rob Brunner, who

275
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: a lot of people say is the best and the

276
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,239
Speaker 1: biz comes to typing about phones. Earlier this year, mysterious

277
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: payphone appeared on a residential street in chevy Chase, DC.

278
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: Locals were surprised to discover that it worked. You could

279
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: lift the receiver and call anyone anywhere for free, no

280
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: quarter required. But the phone actually had a more specific purpose,

281
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: as made clear by the sign across the top jokes.

282
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: Push one you get a knock knock joke. Push two

283
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: yielded a joke for children, and so on. The idea

284
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: was a fast hit with neighborhood residents, especially kids. But

285
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: why was it there? Some minor detective work recently revealed

286
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: the answer. The Jokes phone is the work of a

287
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: substitute teacher at nearby Lafayette Elementary named Don Rutledge, whose

288
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: house is across the sidewalk from the phone.

289
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 3: Ruttledge is the.

290
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: Kind of guy who likes to tinker, has a history

291
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: of drumming up quirky projects. Asked him about his cupcake car.

292
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 1: That's what it says. I don't know.

293
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: I'm way more into the cupcakes, but I still know.

294
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 2: How does a private citizen have the right to actually

295
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 2: put a working phone in on a public street.

296
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 3: Here it is this is like a public payphone.

297
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 1: It's a public payphone. So he and it also instead

298
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: of saying phone, it just says jokes. It looks very nice.

299
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: So he bought it on a place called a publicpayphone

300
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: dot com.

301
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 3: What yeah, what did you think of that?

302
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 2: I know?

303
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: And then he he tinkered with it. He took all

304
00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: the electron old electronics out and put he wrote computter code.

305
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: He designed a little computer that goes in it. He

306
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: says he spent seven hundred dollars a figure that he

307
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: is embarrassed about on it.

308
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 3: But you go it.

309
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 2: Does he think that's high or low?

310
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: He thinks that's high for just like a joke, Okay, but.

311
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 2: That's amazing that he was able to do that for seven.

312
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 1: Hundred bucks, right totally. And it has it has a

313
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: list of all like you look at it and it

314
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 1: looks everything looks like a phone, but until you read

315
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 1: all the lines on it, and it's all about jokes.

316
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: And so it has like a whole thing. It's like

317
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: one through zero, like one, two, three, seven, eight nine zero,

318
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: and they're all different types of jokes. Awesome, he says, uh,

319
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: he wrote he wrote some of the jokes, and he

320
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: recorded all the jokes.

321
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 3: Okay, now we see what's going on. And so.

322
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: One of them, like someone says, will they make you

323
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: all laugh? And he there's a quote from him. I mean,

324
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: that's in the eye of the beholder. He says, one

325
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 1: of his personal favorites. And I do not mind this joke.

326
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: How does the polygamist hippie count his wives one missus hippie,

327
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: two missus hippie.

328
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know the joke.

329
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: I don't mind it.

330
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 2: I don't know that it was hurt during that joke.

331
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 1: Nobody was hurting.

332
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 2: It was a victim of crime.

333
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: No one's getting banned.

334
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 3: Yep, pretty good.

335
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,359
Speaker 2: Go let that go through.

336
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 3: Pretty good. That's awesome.

337
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 2: I think this is a public service.

338
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 3: I agree.

339
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 2: I think this gentleman is on his way to either

340
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 2: middling at the improv or the Medal of Freedom.

341
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do too.

342
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 2: And I think, you know what, I like it because

343
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,719
Speaker 2: in a time when we're you know, we're still getting

344
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 2: over COVID and we're still trying to figure out what's

345
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 2: going on, I like it. I think there should be

346
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: more of them. They should be in every damn city

347
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 2: there I said it.

348
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 3: I agree every city should have a joke phone, and

349
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 3: it should just switch it up once a year, just

350
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,359
Speaker 3: switch it up. It's so nice, like that Hall of

351
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 3: Oates number that you could call calling Oats that's been

352
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 3: around for twenty years. Just call. There's five choices. You

353
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 3: push one, and they played hold on.

354
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 2: Hold on, now you got me, you got me? Not

355
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 2: only did I not know, I've been going down a

356
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 2: Hall and Oates rabbit hole of exactly.

357
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 3: There's no like two man band that you want to.

358
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 2: Darryl is so angry and unhappy, and I'm so old

359
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 2: school that I remember when I used to play. I

360
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 2: forgot what state he lives in, but he was on

361
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 2: like the local affiliate. And remember there's a show called

362
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 2: Darrel's House.

363
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 3: Yeah it's pretty good.

364
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 2: Save girl would go over and they do food fire.

365
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 2: It was a crazy show that should have been actually

366
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: a big network show. But he he seems to hate

367
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 2: John Oates with a fiery passion that I can't figure out.

368
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 2: What is your take on it?

369
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 3: As straits great question. So John Oates weirdly worked himself

370
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 3: into some New York comedy festivals, like he would just

371
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 3: come and play aable songs. He had really good stage

372
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 3: banter and Kurt do you remember he did Eugene Mermann

373
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 3: comedy for us the first year and we were all like, oh,

374
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 3: that really is John Oates. I to my point of

375
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 3: view is Oates wants to sell the catalog and Hall

376
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: wants to keep playing the catalog. And I think it

377
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 3: just came down to it's just moolah. At the end

378
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 3: of the day.

379
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: Daryl it keeps insisting that they are not partners, and

380
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: if you ask him, he goes, I hope you didn't

381
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: just ask me. If he's my partner, you can't be

382
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 2: like he gets almost threatening.

383
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah.

384
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 2: I saw them at the Hollywood Bowl not that long ago,

385
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 2: like okay, granted it was probably pre COVID, but they

386
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: put on a great show and you wouldn't tell that

387
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: in Like I said, the Hollywood Bull holds ten thousand people.

388
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 2: It was packed. People love them except Daryl Hall. Everyone

389
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 2: loves all those except Daryl Hall. He cannot stand Hall those.

390
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 3: Yes, I yes. And also he is your partner. Nobody's

391
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,239
Speaker 3: just going like, man, I can't stop rocking out the

392
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 3: Hall like it's all.

393
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: Ok all Smith, all in Johnson, it's all outs TERI

394
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 2: I'll deal with it.

395
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 3: So there is a number. It's been around for a

396
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 3: long time. The number is seven one nine two six

397
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 3: six two eight three eight. And if you call it

398
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,640
Speaker 3: and see if I can get it on here loud enough,

399
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:22,680
Speaker 3: come to.

400
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:27,920
Speaker 2: Call her notes your emergency helpline to hear one on one.

Speaker 3: Please press fall one. Kathy, I love that song.

404
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 2: It's a sensitive song, and well I like to imagine

405
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: them writing it together, being two sensitive men. They were

406
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 2: talking about love loss and it turns out they can't

407
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,120
Speaker 2: stand each other. Who might turn to in this kind

408
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: of world?

409
00:20:55,640 --> 00:21:01,679

Speaker 3: gotta go with OAHs.

414
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: Oates has the commitment.

415
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 3: That's right. Daryl had the lime disease. Oates has the commitment,

416
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 3: and you can leave it at that. That's crazy. I

417
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 3: have a question for you when you you play Carnegie Hall,

422
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 3: rider because we get the dumbest shit that we don't

423
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:37,040

00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 2: Okay, you dumb whores. All a spotter is like, if

471
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 2: you're a dude comic, it's the wristband right's going to

472
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 2: blow you before the show, and the different color wristband for

473
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 2: the blowdiver to get after the show. Since my audience

474
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 2: is all women and gay guys, it's all out there.

475
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 3: That spotter better have some long binoculars.

476
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, and a really good gatar, I mean very I

477
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: mean yes.

478
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,679
Speaker 2: I definitely would get a lot of single men that

479
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 2: would want to come backstage to meet me. But you know,

480
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 2: they don't want to do the tongue kissing. You know

481
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: so often I want to do a little tongue kissing.

482
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: So my spotters, I don't know if I have a

483
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 2: lot of work for them, but I I do. I

484
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 2: have to admit, I wonder if these guy comics that

485
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 2: have posses like this, if like they've got the spotters

486
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 2: with their wrist band.

487
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 1: There's like, there's like fifteen of them are spotters, right,

488
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: but they might.

489
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 3: Be spotting for each other. Toyo Chappelle probably just goes

490
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 3: home and then those guys are all just trying to

491
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 3: wing man. Yeah, they're spotting each other.

492
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 2: You're paying their hotel rooms, you're paying for their food,

493
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 2: you're paying you know the VD Madison, you know all

494
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 2: of them.

495
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 3: So much of it. Yeah, that's wild. Years ago, I

496
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 3: pitched a show when Spike TV still existed, and it

497
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 3: was you remember, it was for a man. It was

498
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,880
Speaker 3: a network for man. How did that ever?

499
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 2: You remember?

500
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:34,919
Speaker 3: How did that ever exist? And then go away? But

501
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 3: I pitched the show to them when I was really

502
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 3: young writer, and I had read an article about an

503
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 3: NBA player who had made one hundred and twenty million

504
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 3: dollars over his career, who is now playing in Puerto

505
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 3: Rico for like two hundred and fifty thousand dollars a season,

506
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 3: And it's because his entrage was ninety people. He would

507
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 3: travel with ninety people and feed them and if he

508
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 3: bought everything, ninety people got new sneakers, like and I

509
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 3: just remember being like, this has to be a reverse cribs. Yeah,

510
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 3: you show how it can all go away so quickly,

511
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 3: and I had it all presentation.

512
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: I love it.

513
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 2: I would go watch that everybody. That's fascinating to me.

514
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 2: Ninety By the way, that reminds me of by the

515
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: way I'm I'm actually not a sports person, but believe

516
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 2: it or not, I've watched every episode of thirty. For

517
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 2: thirty I left the documentary fanatic, and the one that

518
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 2: got me hooked on that series was they did one

519
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 2: called Broke Yes and it was about like Andre Risen

520
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,439
Speaker 2: and like all these guys there.

521
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I.

522
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 2: Thought that was fascinating. So can I tell you a

523
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 2: little story that I'm probably gonna get in trouble for

524
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 2: telling you?

525
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: Of course.

526
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 2: Okay, so since you straight's know this stuff, you're gonna

527
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 2: have to fill in the blanks if my gay friendly

528
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 2: mind can't remember. Okay. So the Miami basketball.

529
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,440
Speaker 3: Team, the Heat.

530
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 2: Okay, So one day I'm good pals with Do you

531
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 2: remember Susie Ormond. She had a financial shattle a little girlfriend, use.

532
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 3: Your zip bags five times exactly.

533
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 2: So she's still a friend of mine. She's a power lesbian.

534
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 2: The power lesbians are running the world. Don't be fooled.

535
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 2: And so she's in my house one day and she

536
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: gets a call from freaking pat Riley, and of course

537
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: she has to show me the phone. Well, girlfriend, you're

538
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 2: not gonna believe he's calling me. It's my good old

539
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 2: friend pat Riley. And I'm like the coach. So she goes, yeah,

540
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 2: so this I find wild. All right, help me with

541
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 2: the history. But there was a time when I believe

542
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 2: there were three famous acquisitions for the Miami Heat at

543
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 2: the same time.

544
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 3: Yes, d Wade, Dwayne Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh.

545
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: Okay, so how so happy you're here for this, Scottie?

546
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 2: Seriously, how brilliant pat Riley hired Susie Orman to help

547
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 2: acquire those guys for the team. She put pat pat

548
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 2: Riley put Susie on the phone with the mom of

549
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 2: each one of these players about how to keep their

550
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 2: money and how not to go broke in six months,

551
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 2: and not to buy ten Lamborghinis and not to like

552
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 2: you all the stuff. And I thought that was an

553
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 2: amazing stroke of genius and quite a feather in her cap.

554
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 3: That's amazing, Alison.

555
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 2: So no, I have no authority to tell that story.

556
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,239
Speaker 2: And I probably shouldn't have.

557
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 3: But well, you didn't disparage anybody. Also, that's those guys

558
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 3: are all known for having great financial lives post basketball.

559
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 3: Those guys, aren't, you know, they're not out by crypto

560
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 3: dot com Marena asking, you know, selling their rings and jerseys.

561
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 3: They're fine. Right, here's another story for us all speaking

562
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 3: of that, Reach in the Darkness sent another great story,

563
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 3: and thank you, Reach in the Darkness. This was in

564
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 3: Billboard magazine. That's real. That's written by Gil Kaufman. Never

565
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 3: heard of him, but he's really good at type.

566
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 2: I hosted the Billboard Music Awards three years in a row. Oh,

567
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 2: so they do exist, they know.

568
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 3: The first time I became aware of you, Kathy, was

569
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 3: when you were hosting or co hosting Premium Blend. Yes,

570
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 3: that was a great era of stand up deal.

571
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: That was a big deal for so many times.

572
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 2: You guys stand up. I feel like they're taking the

573
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: special out of specials, Like there's something where the streamers

574
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: and the networks. The fact that Comedy Central isn't the

575
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 2: central place for comedy is crazy. But also the fact

576
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 2: that like Max, you know, back you had an HBO

577
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 2: special to change your whole life so all right, sorry, sorry,

578
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: back to them.

579
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I brought it up. My apologies. So

580
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 3: here's the headline from Gil Kaufman at Billboard Magazine. Mackelmore

581
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 3: brought a super fan onto stage at a festival and

582
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 3: she totally forgot the cops were looking for her. Oh no, no,

583
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 3: here you go.

584
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 2: Wait did she get arrested there?

585
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. It always sweet when an artist invites a

586
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 3: super fan on stage during a show to give them

587
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 3: a special moment with their favorite singer. But a recent

588
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 3: incident in Slovakia during a maccamore set at Last Weekends

589
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 3: Lovestream Festival should give anyone wanting to hop on stage pause,

590
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 3: or at least make them take a beat to check

591
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 3: their priors. See that's why, gil Kaufin, do we just stop.

592
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 2: At Slovakia like I think I'm gonna admit I can't

593
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: find Slovakia on a map. I'm not proud to say that,

594
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 2: but it's true. But there's a part of me that

595
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 2: sort of loves the Maclamar Cans still tour as long

596
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 2: as it's Slovakia.

597
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, guy, he's a hard work, seems like a really

598
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 3: nice guy. He seems like he's on the right side

599
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 3: of the issues all the time.

600
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now do you think that the girl do you

601
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 2: think that it's kind of like emblematic of people are

602
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 2: so desperate to be famous that they will actually forget like, oh,

603
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 2: I'm on the you know, well I should know. I

604
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: was on the terror watch list, but trust me, I

605
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 2: was nowhere near Slovakia during that period. But why do

606
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: you think the girl forgot in her fever to get

607
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 2: up on stage?

608
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 3: I know, it's the allure of being on stage, right.

609
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 3: We've had quite a few stories about like former Mafia

610
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 3: bosses that get frusted because on YouTube they started in

611
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 3: a Talian cooking channel and then the inner Paul was like,

612
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: right there, he's right there.

613
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: What I just I read? I just heard a podcast

614
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: about some international drug smugglers who were who like they

615
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: tried to catch, they escaped, they were living free in

616
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: somewhere like Belgium, and then the guy just went on

617
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: Google and started reviewing restaurants and then.

618
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 2: That's how he was arrested because he was even five

619
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 2: stars to like a pizza place of Belgium. I'm a

620
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: giant Narcos fan. I've watched every episode of Narcos and

621
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 2: Narcos Mexico and Guzelda, and let me tell you my want.

622
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 2: Escobar would not do that. He would go he he

623
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 2: had his hippopotamuses, you know in Colombia.

624
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 1: And those those hippos now have been they released them,

625
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: and now there's a hippo problem. And call these run

626
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 1: with cocaine hippos.

627
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 2: That's right, and so that and so I'm just saying,

628
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 2: you know, you kind of want your cartel members and

629
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 2: your mafiosa's to keep their shit together.

630
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 4: I don't mean to judge, and I don't want to

631
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 4: be anybody else's crosshairs, but you know, maybe not reviewing

632
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 4: the vodka sauce that your cousin's is like the best

633
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 4: idea that day.

634
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 3: That's right. And it's funny because I'll get to how

635
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 3: she did. So she didn't get busted right off of stage,

636
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 3: but here's how it went down. The Slovak Republic Police

637
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 3: Earli this week said that one of McLamore's super fans

638
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 3: ended up on the wrong kind of spotlight when she

639
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 3: posted images on her social where she was seen with

640
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 3: the rapper holding a mic with his arm around her shoulder.

641
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 3: Translation from this post that they put on their Facebook

642
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 3: there said a Slovak girl thrilled from a joint solo

643
00:32:55,600 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 3: with macmore forgotten that she was wanted. Uh so do we.

644
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 2: Know what she was wanted for?

645
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: What is she wanted for?

646
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 3: The unnamed so and then somebody narked on her speaking narked.

647
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 3: An unnamed good citizen reportedly recognized the twenty four year

648
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 3: old woman from the warrants page and informed police, who

649
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 3: detained her after she left the stage. So I'm sorry

650
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 3: she did get detained off stage. At press time, police

651
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 3: had not disclosed what charge the unnamed woman was reportedly

652
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 3: being sought for, but she was ordered then by a

653
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: court to serve her prison sentence, which she had reportedly

654
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 3: previously been avoiding. The woman was subsequently escorted off the

655
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 3: premises to uh the institution for execution of a prison sentence.

656
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 3: So she did go from stage to jail. My apology,

657
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: which is my god?

658
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 2: They don't you know the flow box? Do not fuck

659
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 2: around it here? Oh yeah, I am watching my PS

660
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 2: and q's when I play the chucol Hut over there

661
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 2: in Slovakia.

662
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yes, have you ever played to a non English

663
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 3: speaking audience? Have you ever?

664
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 2: I have not? I was worried when I, like I said,

665
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 2: I got to do a show in Singapore, or by

666
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 2: the way, it's illegal to be gay. So they had

667
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 2: somebody from the government in the back of the theater

668
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 2: for real. I already had been detained at the airport

669
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 2: there for like five hours. I was scared shitless and

670
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 2: then but I didn't want to say, like, I got

671
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 2: a room full of gay guys waiting for me, you

672
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 2: gotta let me go. So I was like, I have

673
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,879
Speaker 2: a show tonight, and it's a room full of men

674
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 2: that wear colorful clothing and lots of bequins may be

675
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 2: involved or may not be. It's a like I'm trying

676
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 2: to talk my way on and it's just making it worse.

677
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,240
Speaker 2: But yeah, that was wild to have like a government

678
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 2: representative at the back of the show making sure, like

679
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 2: you know, I was just making one of the Kardashians.

680
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,360
Speaker 2: I wasn't saying it against the government of Singapore.

681
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting.

682
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 2: So I wasn't airport jail, but just for.

683
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 3: Questioning, exciting, exciting.

684
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: I did a set once in Berlin. How was that

685
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 1: it was? It was like it was just super strange,

686
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 1: and I did like it was right. It was only

687
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: like maybe five, eight, seven or eight years after I

688
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: started doing stand up, and so I had like a

689
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,399
Speaker 1: good five minutes that I thought would work, and some

690
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: of it worked and the rest they just stared at

691
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: me very politely, like very polite Germans.

692
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 2: Okay, So, how how good was there? English? You think?

693
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 2: Or do you think it's pretty good? That's a humor

694
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 2: was like so dry.

695
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: It was a place. Yeah, it was a place that

696
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,239
Speaker 1: often had American acts like swing By, but there were

697
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,720
Speaker 1: other German acts like on stage doing German stuff before

698
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 1: I went up, So it was like a mix.

699
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. I will say when I have done the Just

700
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 2: for Last festival back in the day in Montreal just Career, Oh.

701
00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe.

702
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 2: I can't help but think that that first week where

703
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 2: it's all the quebec Qua French only. Okay, I know

704
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 2: this is going to come out wrong, like everything in

705
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 2: to say no, but the ship they laugh at is

706
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 2: fucking nuts, you guys. I swear to god, it'll be

707
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 2: like a guy dressed as an apple and he'll just

708
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 2: stand on stage and go, I.

709
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 1: Yes, that is a very good approximation standing ovation and

710
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: so he'll come out, but he'll come out on stage

711
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 1: and before he says anything, people are on their feet clapping.

712
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: They're like, miss stand appy, Okay, so wild. It is

713
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 1: really crazy, so funny.

714
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 2: What country have you guys ever been in where you

715
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 2: felt like the sense of humor was really really cooky?

716
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 3: Well, it's not a different country, but in Hawaii. It's

717
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 3: different the in Hawaii because it's such a mix of people,

718
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 3: since it's like American tourists and gis and stuff like that,

719
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 3: the Polynesians, the local Hawaiians plus the Japanese influence. Everybody

720
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 3: takes shots at each other, and it would be it

721
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 3: would be stuff that I think people would feel like

722
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 3: they couldn't put on TV. Now go to us. Just

723
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 3: go to a comedy club in Honolulu and they all

724
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 3: just take shots at each other the whole night. It's

725
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 3: kind of fun. It's almost like a roast in a way.

726
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 2: I kind of like that. I'm actually playing Honolulu in

727
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 2: I don't know my schedule in front of me. I

728
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 2: think October.

729
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,359
Speaker 3: That's go see. If you're a Honolulu ban animal, you

730
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 3: gotta go see Kathy Griffin in Honolulu.

731
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 2: I'll probably you know, I may reprise the bikini if

732
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 2: it's hot. In human you know. I know you guys

733
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 2: hate it when your hair frass. I'm right along there

734
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:30,080

00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 3: Yep, what I got left? I hate when that goodness?

736
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 3: That's fun. KURTI hit us with another story, Bud.

737
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Maybe this will send us home. Oh,

738
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: this one's interesting. This was sent in by copy Haste.

739
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 1: Thank you copy Haste. He sent us in a while back.

740
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: This was the title is an imaginary town becomes real,

741
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: then not, then real again. This is a fascinating story.

742
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,359
Speaker 3: I magine in any town, because real than.

743
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: Not then I like, Oh God, I love cult doc started.

744
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 1: This was in NPR, written by Robert Crowich my friend.

745
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: He truly is the best in the biz. I love

746
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: Robert crow with all my heart, the former host of

747
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 1: radio app Folks. This is the story of a totally

748
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,279
Speaker 1: made up place that suddenly became real and then strangely

749
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 1: undid itself and became a fantasy again. It's about a

750
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,760
Speaker 1: place in upstate New York called Aglo a g l Oe,

751
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 1: just up the road from Roscoe and Rockland. In the

752
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: nineteen thirties, there was no town on that stretch between

753
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 1: Rockland and Beaverkill, just a dirt road. This wasn't an

754
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: important or often visited place, which made it a perfect

755
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: spot for what is called a paper town or a

756
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: map trap. So companies that create maps get their work

757
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: cops beat all the time, you hire draftsmen, you check spellings,

758
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: work on the colors, you get all the cities in

759
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 1: the right place. And then along comes a gas company

760
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 1: or a tourism agency and it takes what you've done

761
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: and slaps its own name on it. You cry piracy

762
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 1: and take it to court. Obviously, this is before Google maps.

763
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: A beaver killed? Did I hear that? Correctly?

764
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 3: Beaver killed?

765
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 2: That is so if you're from there, you're like, I'm

766
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 2: proud beaver killer. Okay, I'm learning a lot, all right?

767
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,919
Speaker 2: So is it? How did it become a paper town

768
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 2: and then a not paper town?

769
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 1: So basically what happened was they made this place up.

770
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 1: This one map maker made up aglow to like mark

771
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,439
Speaker 1: their map, so if someone recreated their map, aglow would

772
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 1: be there and they could sue them. And so.

773
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,479
Speaker 3: Interesting, right, smart, This.

774
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 2: Is the underbelly of the map world that I will

775
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 2: tell you I was not prepared for.

776
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 1: I was prepared for it either.

777
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 2: It's a from a time where there was a man

778
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 2: named Thomas, and he had a guide, and so I

779
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 2: am my Thomas Guide. And then I had to turn

780
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 2: the page one hundred and forty seven that had no

781
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 2: connection to page seventeen. So right, but I didn't know

782
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 2: about the infighting. And by the way, once again I

783
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 2: hate to bring up Marcos, not unlike the drug cartels

784
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 2: with these map.

785
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 3: Q Yeah, thank you, thanks.

786
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 4: They are vicious, viciousious map makers.

787
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:28,240
Speaker 1: So it was rand McNally, the famous map company Rand McNally,

788
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 1: printed one of its one of its New York State

789
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: map and guess what, right there, in the same place,

790
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: same spelling, was the exact, same, totally made up town Aglow.

791
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: And then the map makers who put Aglow in there

792
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:47,479
Speaker 1: sued Rand McNally, and Rand McNally went to court and said, no,

793
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 1: we didn't even though they did definitely copy their map.

794
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: They say, no, we didn't copy their map because in

795
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: the where in the place where Aglow was, someone had

796
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 1: actually built a little store and named it the Aglo

797
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 1: General Store. Because they looked at a map saw that

798
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 1: this place in the middle of the road was called Aglow,

799
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 1: called the store general Store, Aglow General Store. And because

800
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 1: that tiny place existed rand McNally won and didn't get

801
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: sued by this smaller map company, and then like one

802
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: year later, Aglo General Store went out of business. What

803
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: and now exist?

804
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, they're the only game in town, for God's

805
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 2: sake something. So the rad McNally people are not looking

806
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,120
Speaker 2: great in this. I mean they are looking like they're

807
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 2: taking down the little guy, and damn it, I don't

808
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,200
Speaker 2: like it exactly.

809
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rand McNally, big assholes, the assholes to the biggest

810
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,919
Speaker 1: jerks around.

811
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,879
Speaker 2: Which is covered in the First Amendment of the Constitutions.

812
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 3: All their assholes and they could read their maps and

813
00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 3: go right to hell.

814
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 2: I'll be honest, I want to know every item that's

815
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 2: at the General Store. I don't know if they have tampons, condoms,

816
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 2: Like how general are we talking or is it just

817
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 2: you know, you guys getting some pizza and.

818
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 3: Vodka that's right? Or is it like the Prada in Marfa,

819
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 3: Texas or whatever that's just a pure pop up stand there.

820
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 3: Take a photo in front of it. Speaking of, they're

821
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 3: just about a mile down the street from that Prada

822
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 3: fake pop up thing installation in Marfa. There's a really

823
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,320
Speaker 3: bad abandoned house with a plywood door. That's somebody spray

824
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 3: painted Prada on. That's where I took my photo, and

825
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 3: I recommend if you're on a road trip to the

826
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 3: Prada Marfa, go a little further and take one in

827
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 3: front of the shanty that's falling apart. That also says

828
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 3: prad on it. It's the same difference. I love a shit,

829
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 3: same thing.

830
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 2: I love a shanty town. I like shanty people, I

831
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 2: like shanty attitude. You know I'm I'm not mighty like

844
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 3: his wonderful boyfriend Alex. They've been dating for over a year,

845
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 3: and Miles came out of the closet in February twenty

846
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,799
Speaker 3: twenty three. He never thought he'd love somebody as much

847
00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:35,320
Speaker 3: as Alex, So Alex introduced him to our podcast, Bananas

Speaker 3: Alex thumbs up. Great job coming out of the closet, Miles,

850
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 3: it's a scary thing to do. Congratulations.

851
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 2: You know what. I'm gonna just say it. I hope

852
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 2: it's a chanty closet because that has its charm. Now

853
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 2: you can take pictures with them, I hope.

854
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 3: Oh yes, as many as they want. We'll marry him

855
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 3: if they want. Whatever they want to do. Madison Russell

856
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 3: wants to thumb her brother Tory up. Tory passed away

857
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 3: two years ago. Tory did not listen to Madison's wedding coordinator, who,

858
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 3: despite being warned numerous times, he locked his knees and

859
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 3: fainted at her wedding. Oh, her and I were talking

860
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 3: about this. Kurt didn't know that was a possibility. But yeah,

861
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 3: I had a wedding planner like truly yelling at me

862
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 3: not to lock our knees. So we went past that.

863
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: Still so surreal.

864
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 2: Wait, I don't mean to like, I'm.

865
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: Not going to die from fainting.

866
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,879
Speaker 2: I know this is not technically a medical show, but.

867
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: It's such an educational podcast.

868
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 2: It certainly is. So locking your knees means what like,

869
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 2: you're standing there during the bows, but you're not.

870
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,720
Speaker 1: No bend in your knee, no bend in your knee.

871
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,799
Speaker 3: If you stand perfectly.

872
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 2: Straight for how long until you go down?

873
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 3: Ten to fifteen minutes max? Like you'll see pretty fast.

874
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 2: Fast most weddings, I mean you'll go down, yeah that

875
00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 2: most weddings are not that short. So you're you're.

876
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly so after So, the first time Madison laughed

877
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 3: after her brother Tory passed away two years ago was

878
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 3: while listening to Bananas. She says, thank you Kurt and

879
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 3: Scottie for bringing me back, which is very kind.

880
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: That's right.

881
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 3: And last, but not least, Ali Joey wants to thumb

882
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 3: her sister way up. At the end of June, her

883
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 3: sister Elizabeth had a heart attack. They performed CPR and

884
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 3: an AED and brought her back.

885
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

886
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 3: She had a defibrial defhibibulator, yes, implanted and didn't work,

887
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 3: so she she went in for a second surgery to

888
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 3: get a new internal defibrillator. She's an absolute rock star

889
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 3: who has not lost her sense of humor during this

890
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 3: entire ordeal. So thumbs up to Zizabeth's we wish your

891
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 3: speedy recovery.

892
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 2: Yes, I feel like such an asshole for like bitching

893
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 2: about any problem I've ever freaking had. This chick has

894
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,439
Speaker 2: a defibrillator. Now does it just go off like when

895
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 2: it senses it needs to go off?

896
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 3: I think that's right. I think it repro I don't know.

897
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,719
Speaker 3: We're also not doctors, as you could tell immediately just

898
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:17,239
Speaker 3: by looking at us, but are hearing us speak for

899
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 3: two seconds? But uh yeah, I would think it probably

900
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 3: helps get your heart back into rhythm if it starts

901
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,320
Speaker 3: to get out of a healthy rhythm.

902
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 2: I want one.

903
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:27,720
Speaker 1: Oh well, cute doggie.

904
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 3: Now that's a cute my.

905
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 2: Doggie Maggie named after my dear departed mom Meg. You like,

906
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,479
Speaker 2: like you said, enjoyed the two or three, but chuck

907
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 2: and she's one of the four that will bring with

908
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 2: me on the road. She helps me stay calm and

909
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 2: all that. She's like a canine defibrillator if I can

910
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:45,799
Speaker 2: go that far.

911
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kathy, please plug plug away, tell us everything.

912
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 2: Website, Kathy Griffin dot com, Instagram, TikTok. I'm even still

913
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 2: on whatever Twitter is these days. I called shitter, but

914
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 2: I'm gonna fight with Elon. Elon is so mad at me.

915
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 2: He took away my account.

916
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: That was crazy, Yeah.

917
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 2: He was. He got really mad because I changed my

918
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 2: user name from an Kati girl from to Eddielon Musk

919
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 2: and I just started tweeting like all this pro woman

920
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,480
Speaker 2: stuff and pro pro.

921
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 3: Choice, all controversial.

922
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 2: I know. He was very upset.

923
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 1: And then he banned you from Twitter for a while,

924
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 1: like a baby.

925
00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then I did something afterwards which I'm not

926
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,320
Speaker 2: proud of, and I'm not going to try to convince

927
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 2: you it was ethical because it wasn't. But I then

928
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 2: started tweeting as Elon from my dead mother's account. Slow clap,

929
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:49,800
Speaker 2: giving my cut, slow clap like that.

930
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,840
