Speaker 4: We're going to a guest's house.
Speaker 3: That's right, because it's not about you today, Chris, It's
Speaker 3: about our guest.
Speaker 4: There's been so many episodes where in the past I've
Speaker 4: made it about me, like it's me day, but yees day,
Speaker 4: it's someone else day.
Speaker 3: Although may I just say podcasting every day is me day.
Speaker 2: That's what podcasting is all about.
Speaker 4: Yes, It's almost like there's nothing into life aside from podcasting,
Speaker 4: right right?
Speaker 1: And then we hear a gun noise? Yeah, just a
Speaker 1: gun noise, not the shot.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, And that wasn't a joke about violence
Speaker 3: or no self violence.
Speaker 4: If that's ever happened to anyone in your family, any
Speaker 4: violence has touched you in any way.
Speaker 1: We don't mean to bring that up.
Speaker 2: Oh bring back a red light touch from violence.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I would like to just tell everybody that
Speaker 3: I am wearing essentially dentures right now because I'm getting
Speaker 3: new teeth and so I'm wearing fake veneers and it
Speaker 3: feels weird.
Speaker 1: They could be the real thing.
Speaker 2: But don't you love this neighborhood.
Speaker 1: I do love this neighborhood.
Speaker 4: There's so much going on that I gotta be careful
Speaker 4: because I could leave the house every night and then
Speaker 4: you know what happens when I leave the house.
Speaker 2: You're happy?
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then so, which is fine. It sounds good
Speaker 4: on paper, but then the rest of my life I'm
Speaker 4: contrasting it with that happy time I once had living
Speaker 4: in Echo.
Speaker 3: Park, that time where you were just walking down the
Speaker 3: street whistling like Jughead himself.
Speaker 4: On top of sunshine with my green, pointy weird hat.
Speaker 2: I'm on top of sunshine in.
Speaker 3: My hat, a top of the sunshine.
Speaker 4: Why oh yeah, uh well yeah, we Uh.
Speaker 1: I took my first pilates class yesterday. Chris something.
Speaker 2: When did you get divorced?
Speaker 5: Okay, up top, Yeah that shower, that'll shower.
Speaker 1: Look at this round muscular bubble butt. Did you take
Speaker 1: the kids away?
Speaker 4: And again, if any if your kids have been taken
Speaker 4: away from you and we're not light, that's not a
Speaker 4: red button flag for that.
Speaker 3: We're not flagging anything and we're not pushing any button
Speaker 3: at all.
Speaker 2: Was it the kind that had machines?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: Yes, aren't those cool when your neck when your spine cracked?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I had, I mean I need.
Speaker 4: It was like an introductory level thing, so they didn't
Speaker 4: have it on the spine crack setting.
Speaker 1: It was just like starter off. Yeah.
Speaker 4: We basically did the warm up and cool down and
Speaker 4: I'd never done plates.
Speaker 2: But it's pretty good, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They know it's good though, because it's fucking expense.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 4: I They were like, okay, well you can do the
Speaker 4: uh all the time everything plan for three hundred dollars
Speaker 4: a month.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was like, oh, let's go down from there.
Speaker 4: All the people that were in my little intro thing
Speaker 4: all heard that price and said no. Yeah, and I'm
Speaker 4: such a sucker for sales. I don't know how to
Speaker 4: say no. I wanted to say no, but so I
Speaker 4: just bought four visits oh in a month, but it's.
Speaker 1: Still like almost one hundred bucks.
Speaker 3: Well it's good because if you just started doing it,
Speaker 3: you want to make sure that you like it, right.
Speaker 4: But I gotta be doing something else too. I can't
Speaker 4: just have one workout day a month. I mean that
Speaker 4: won or a week that won't do anything for me.
Speaker 1: True, but it's I just don't know how to say no.
Speaker 4: It's like the time I bought carpet cleaner from some
Speaker 4: door to door guy and I didn't even have carpet.
Speaker 1: I could have.
Speaker 4: Easily told him these are wood floors, but I still
Speaker 4: bought somes because the guy had a bad time for him.
Speaker 4: I wish Paul lived here at this camouflage would be
Speaker 4: aware of doghouse.
Speaker 1: Sorry, thank you for your service, sir, Paul. I didn't realize.
Speaker 2: BW racing up the street.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry I did.
Speaker 2: That was that was a tough one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's how bumpers get ripped off. Good thing, it
Speaker 4: was a short curve.
Speaker 1: Thank you, sir.
Speaker 2: Thank you a very low cark.
Speaker 1: Did we honk it? Seemed like your horn was so
Speaker 1: far away.
Speaker 2: I know it wasn't me, it was it was someone
Speaker 2: far away.
Speaker 4: I bet he'll respond to that honk as if it
Speaker 4: were us. That's the first time I've had a honk assist.
Speaker 2: It's perfect timing.
Speaker 4: Thank you passerby who was probably honking because they're mad
Speaker 4: at us.
Speaker 3: Thank you the clearly the Lord who's on our side.
Speaker 3: Even do I sound different on the mic?
Speaker 2: You know that I have new teeth.
Speaker 4: I think you sound more sophisticated and more confident.
Speaker 2: Thank you, And.
Speaker 4: When you talk right, it's like having a tongue ring.
Speaker 4: Just to relate it to most people.
Speaker 3: To most people at litl a Fair, Yes, it already
Speaker 3: feels I'm slightly getting used to.
Speaker 1: I went to Lilith Fair years ago, and I really
Speaker 1: have no memory of it.
Speaker 2: Were you on drugs or drink I don't believe.
Speaker 4: I think it was long enough ago to where I
Speaker 4: wasn't quite doing it that much drinking. I wish I
Speaker 4: remembered more about it, because then that would be followed
Speaker 4: by a story you know, uh not just I did that,
Speaker 4: and then silence followed by helicopters.
Speaker 2: Listen.
Speaker 3: First of all, this is a helicopter podcast be not
Speaker 3: a storytelling podcast.
Speaker 2: We don't owe anybody anything.
Speaker 4: Well, Hi, Paul, nice to see you.

Speaker 6: some exciting characters hanging hanging in the neighborhood as well.
Speaker 4: Yes, nice, I mean we were just talking about how
Speaker 4: I should go to rehab because of Ever since my
Speaker 4: trip at Lilith Fair, I can't even remember being there.

Speaker 3: Well that's super crazy. Were you being lured to the
Speaker 3: rehab center?
Speaker 6: Well, that's that's sort of the hangout spot out in
Speaker 6: front and the grass. They do kind of a decent job,
Speaker 6: but it's always ends up. You know, I'm going to
Speaker 6: walk my dog and there's four guys getting real loose
Speaker 6: and loaded in the grass, and I just don't want
Speaker 6: any part of it.
Speaker 2: You hate stuff like that.
Speaker 1: I hate stuff.
Speaker 6: Well, yes, as a rule, I do you know, can
Speaker 6: you do me a favor while we're in this area?
Speaker 1: Totally?
Speaker 6: I need to drop off this DVD at the library. Yes,
Speaker 6: I use my neighborhood library. I love it all the time.
Speaker 1: Quit showing off. Well, you know these are these DVDs.

Speaker 6: people forget how short DVD rentals are.
Speaker 2: That's right, And you don't want to get charged.
Speaker 1: No, lord, no, they've already got me over the barrel
Speaker 1: for three dollars. They asked me for it. Every time
Speaker 1: I'm in there, I never have cash.
Speaker 2: Over the barrel, over that library barrel.
Speaker 6: It's it's a big barrel filled with books, Yes.
Speaker 2: Filled with Encyclopedia, brown books.
Speaker 6: They've got a zine rack. It's a hip library.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Local zines.
Speaker 1: Yeah, some local zines.
Speaker 6: There's yoga, there's I don't I don't know what else
Speaker 6: they have, but they have others.
Speaker 1: There's a comedy of it.
Speaker 2: Mike, there is this the one that's near the Red Lion.
Speaker 6: Uh no, no, it's actually we're almost we're almost added. Oh,
Speaker 6: it's just up around this bend a.
Speaker 1: Bit of a ways. Okay, by texts got you? Oh yeah?
Speaker 4: The place I never know how to pronounce, certainly isn't
Speaker 4: spelled like text.
Speaker 2: No, taks doesn't feel like texts.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I have to go tis it doesn't feel that
Speaker 6: sounds strange.
Speaker 1: You know you're forcing it. I went there, how I've heard?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Sorry, this is subsided.
Speaker 1: This is it? Right here? So after these this little
Speaker 1: bankup park cars is slide over and all. Okay, I'll
Speaker 1: pop it in the box, pop it in the barrel.
Speaker 1: Gotta love it.
Speaker 6: Joel Schumacher's The Phantom of the Opera Back to the People.
Speaker 1: How was it?
Speaker 2: Would you give us a review?
Speaker 3: It was?
Speaker 6: I never seen it before. I was like, who is
Speaker 6: this man in it? And it is h Gerard Butler,
Speaker 6: Oh the Phantom and that was so shocking. And he
Speaker 6: sings his own stuff, which really Yeah, okay, I gotta
Speaker 6: give you this.
Speaker 1: You know everyone does.
Speaker 2: There's more to Gerard butter ely than I thought.
Speaker 1: That's right. I thought he was just eye candy.
Speaker 4: It's just auto tuning, a little lotto tuning, and I
Speaker 4: can that's true.
Speaker 2: Everybody sounds good with auto tune.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's all Hollywood's just bells and whistles.
Speaker 2: I love the idea of helping people do their errands
Speaker 2: during this podcast.
Speaker 4: Yes, I wish more people took the initiative and brought
Speaker 4: things for us to do.
Speaker 3: I think if we say that, sorry, no, don't worry
Speaker 3: about it. I think we should start helping people get
Speaker 3: stuff done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we drive around.
Speaker 4: Else do you need to do? Do you have to
Speaker 4: pay a bill? Go to the Warner building.
Speaker 1: I pay my bills online. But that's good. But the library.
Speaker 1: I like I r L.
Speaker 4: I like to go in there and drive you to
Speaker 4: like a coffee shop that has computers and you could
Speaker 4: go online and pay ills.
Speaker 2: You can surf the web without getting caught by the FBI.
Speaker 1: Right, that's a good idea.
Speaker 4: Go to my more scandalous websites at the coffee shop.
Speaker 3: Well, Chris said that he'd seen he's been seeing you
Speaker 3: at auditions. What's the last audition that you had? I
Speaker 3: you wanna tell us about it?
Speaker 1: Sure? It was? Please say Frisky's cat food?
Speaker 2: Why was that yours?
Speaker 1: No? No, I have Toyota one today. It's boring. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: that's good.
Speaker 6: Anything that's a large multinational corporation, that's yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know that. It made me do a
Speaker 1: fist pump right when I woke up. That's early.
Speaker 6: I had to pretend to be a guy desiring a
Speaker 6: man cave. I just know that from my time here
Speaker 6: in Hollywood. It's so unfair what they do to your
Speaker 6: self perception. I know that I definitely look like a
Speaker 6: guy that should have a man cave and a giant house,
Speaker 6: and it hurts my feelings.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I see you differently, Thank you, guy, I see you
Speaker 3: as the guy that has a really interesting snacks for
Speaker 3: sale at a grateful Dead show.
Speaker 1: Oh god, that's that is a great side hustle.
Speaker 3: Right the very first I made my own ice cream sandwiches.
Speaker 1: Right, No, no, it's it's quite all right. Yeah.
Speaker 4: The first commercial I ever was in it was Burlington
Speaker 4: coat factory. In the house that they shot it in,
Speaker 4: it was the most beautiful ice So was flattered that
Speaker 4: they would even think that I would.
Speaker 1: Have a house like that. Yeah, nutched a Christmas tree
Speaker 1: that big?
Speaker 6: What world could this possibly be?
Speaker 4: And then so I just walked away from it and
Speaker 4: realizing I won't I don't have that house and I
Speaker 4: probably won't ever.
Speaker 1: Have that tree. Yeah, well it's confronting these commercials.
Speaker 2: You could have the tree though, maybe.
Speaker 4: But if I had that house and I had that tree,
Speaker 4: you know, wouldn't be shopping at Berlin a coke factory.
Speaker 2: But it's so much more than coats.
Speaker 1: Yes, they have a band of scarves.
Speaker 2: They do. They do very odd oddly fitting socks.
Speaker 1: Let's not forget about our hat barrel.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I love to pick my hats from a barrel.
Speaker 6: I might see them smosh together, so I know that
Speaker 6: they've got each other's good energy rubbed up on them.
Speaker 3: Ooh, a hat from a bank and a hat that
Speaker 3: has a fish on it together.
Speaker 4: At last, I've told you about the hat I had
Speaker 4: that I got at a garage sale that said ninety
Speaker 4: and still on the go.
Speaker 1: And when it's at a garage sale, you.
Speaker 4: Know the guy is no longer on the co No,
Speaker 4: and so I just wearing a dead.
Speaker 2: Guy's hat fully stopped.
Speaker 1: But I did think about him every time, every time
Speaker 1: I wore it.
Speaker 2: I think that's what he'd want.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's better than his fucking kids gave to him.
Speaker 6: You know, they should have kept the hat.
Speaker 4: I really think they definitely should have kept all the
Speaker 4: Elvis Costello cassettes I got from him.
Speaker 3: I mean, clearly those kids didn't have a sense of
Speaker 3: humor if they didn't keep that hat.
Speaker 1: Definitely.
Speaker 4: It's strange to me that I because I'm really into
Speaker 4: Elvis Costello now and I at the time I knew
Speaker 4: of him and maybe a song here or there, but
Speaker 4: it wasn't until I had four cassette types from this
Speaker 4: dead guy. It's I he'll never know that he got
Speaker 4: me into Elvis.
Speaker 2: Do you know?
Speaker 3: I can't listen to Elvis Costello because my college roommate
Speaker 3: used to sing I'm sure I to do this, but
Speaker 3: used to sing. We listened to him all the time,
Speaker 3: but she would sing a long, full honor choir voice.
Speaker 2: So it'd be like Oliver's arm mean, is him to.
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 4: The worst experiences me when someone has a good voice,
Speaker 4: but happy birthday.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when they can't control the performance of the voice
Speaker 3: right where it's like we're in the car, I don't
Speaker 3: want this in my ears.
Speaker 1: Before you do that.
Speaker 4: You you go to my level when we're singing in
Speaker 4: the car, and then when you're in the studio, I'm.
Speaker 2: Are you talking about me?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: When are we in the studio?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I've heard some of your studio recordings. I wasn't there,
Speaker 4: otherwise I would have mucked up your performance.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say when we were doing our Duets album.
Speaker 4: If you haven't listened to Karen's Live at the Bootleg,
Speaker 4: you should listen to a lot of people, don't someone.
Speaker 4: I've gotten messages where it's like, who did your guys
Speaker 4: a song?
Speaker 1: They don't even know it's you?
Speaker 2: Really, that's me.
Speaker 3: Oh, But interestingly enough, like half the people that were
Speaker 3: did that live show with me that night.
Speaker 2: Are in this car right now.
Speaker 3: Paul Dinky was the host of the entire evening, that's true,
Speaker 3: and Chris Fervings was a pretty farmer on it.
Speaker 1: Wow, this is kind of a reunion, the reunion show.
Speaker 2: It meant a lot to me, guys.
Speaker 1: It was a.
Speaker 6: Really fun time. One of my own ago.
Speaker 1: Was that six years No.
Speaker 2: Five five, twenty fourteen.
Speaker 4: I believe that makes that that registers that. That's one
Speaker 4: of those days where I feel good because I hear
Speaker 4: it and I'm like that sounds right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have lost context.
Speaker 4: Yeah that was Oh my god, we're all dying so quickly. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's just now that's.

Speaker 2: I feel like, hey, yaw is forever, thank you.
Speaker 1: Have you been to a wedding? I think you know Outcasts.
Speaker 4: I think you do know because I'm on the floor

Speaker 3: At the dentist this morning, I had one of those
Speaker 3: like huge hold your mouth open. Oh he is a
Speaker 3: plastic in for like an hour straight, and when he
Speaker 3: took it out, there were these lines, these red lines
Speaker 3: from just my that skin being stretched. But it like
Speaker 3: it was so jarring where I was like, this is
Speaker 3: what I'm going to look like when I'm eighty.
Speaker 2: Like it was just like and they weren't going away.
Speaker 3: So he was trying to talk to me because I've
Speaker 3: said on this podcast before, but my dentist is beautiful,
Speaker 3: and it's really awful to have a hot person in
Speaker 3: your mouth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very shaming, Yeah, pulling.
Speaker 6: All the bad smells from deep within your mouth.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I think about it too.
Speaker 2: I mean old popcorn shells.
Speaker 4: I'm not a try I just I worry about what
Speaker 4: my dentist is experiencing all the time because she's such
Speaker 4: a nice person.
Speaker 1: She doesn't deserve right.
Speaker 2: What your mouth is giving her.
Speaker 4: And she works so hard to really get in there,
Speaker 4: which just just more punishment for her. I mean, I'm
Speaker 4: no hog in the mouth face.
Speaker 6: You've got great teeth, Chris, you definitely have gree t.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Anyway, I've been around a while.
Speaker 2: They are good teeth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, little choppers, nice and straight, real straight.
Speaker 4: Well I wish they used to be really white. But
Speaker 4: you know, I also used to have twenty twenty vision.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Those things change, Yeah, they do.
Speaker 1: They crumble away just one morning. They just suddenly shatter
Speaker 1: your eyes.
Speaker 4: I used to gray vision, and then one day I'm like, oh,
Speaker 4: something happened. I can't read my phone. And I actually
Speaker 4: went to an optimologist and he.
Speaker 1: Said, yeah, just you're at that age.
Speaker 4: And I'm like, yeah, but yesterday I could see, today
Speaker 4: I can't. So clearly there's cobalt from my hip surging
Speaker 4: through my veins. He said, no, that's how it happened
Speaker 4: for me too. One day I just noticed I couldn't see, yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: and I'm like, okay, So then I just and he
Speaker 4: interrupted me and said, in the world as a vampire.
Speaker 1: Yet he's saying it.
Speaker 2: Do you know that?
Speaker 3: I went to the ophthalmologist one time because my prescription
Speaker 3: had changed so quickly, and.
Speaker 2: I it was.
Speaker 3: The optimologist in the mall, and he was very odd
Speaker 3: and at one point when he was checking my eyes
Speaker 3: to figure out what my new prescription was, he was
Speaker 3: like right here, like his face was one.
Speaker 2: Inch away from my face or less. And I was
Speaker 2: just saying, yeah, it's.
Speaker 3: Really weird because I was I feel like I was
Speaker 3: like a certain amount of near sighted for a while
Speaker 3: and now it's just cratered and now it's crazy bad.
Speaker 3: And then just with his face right next to my face,
Speaker 3: he went, you cannot fight Mother Earth or Father Time. Oh,
Speaker 3: and the lights were out because he was looking like
Speaker 3: in the backs of my eyes. But so we were
Speaker 3: in a dark room and he was whispering that shit
Speaker 3: right right at me.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Yeah, and they get his number. He sounds
Speaker 1: like catch.
Speaker 2: I think he was.
Speaker 1: So creepy in those moments. That's just a terrible Mother Nature.
Speaker 1: That would have been normal.
Speaker 3: But so yeah, no one's trying to fight Mother Earth,
Speaker 3: for fuck's sake, it's too big.
Speaker 1: Yeah we live here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no one's doing that.
Speaker 1: But we are all in a bloody battle with the
Speaker 1: Father Time. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I just never hear him called that, right, it's the
Speaker 4: Patrecide element.
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to face right, we're killing our own father exactly.
Speaker 8: Just leave my parents out of plaase, please please, So, Paul,
Speaker 8: one of the things that we've really started doing pretty
Speaker 8: habitually on this podcast is going to Starbucks drive throughs
Speaker 8: around town.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 4: I love it, even though we know there's Ma and
Speaker 4: Pa coffee shops, but they don't get put that spring
Speaker 4: in my step up.
Speaker 1: Sorry.
Speaker 6: Now, I grew up in a town with I think
Speaker 6: the most per capita drive through coffee shops. Really, they're
Speaker 6: on like every corner and every grocery store parking lot
Speaker 6: would have a little like a little photo hut that
Speaker 6: you could drive through and get coffee.
Speaker 1: And it's the best.
Speaker 6: You shouldn't have to get out of your car and
Speaker 6: stand in line for a coffee.
Speaker 3: Once you do a drive through coffee place, you never
Speaker 3: want to get out of your car again, right, And
Speaker 3: when I say you, I mean me, I don't want
Speaker 3: to get out of my car.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I'm becoming a person that doesn't want to be in
Speaker 4: my car ever, because now I live in a neighborhood
Speaker 4: where I can walk to everything, and I just leave
Speaker 4: it in the garage and then I'm like, oh, I
Speaker 4: got to drive today and the batteries just dead.
Speaker 1: Yes, I have lived that, that is. I gotta wake
Speaker 1: up the neighbor Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Someone I've met another person that used to live in
Speaker 4: my area and yeah, just a friend that from Austin.
Speaker 4: And he said, you know, that neighborhood has a lot
Speaker 4: of sex offenders in it. And I'm like, why, what,
Speaker 4: why are you telling me this? He said, because there's
Speaker 4: not a school around that neighborhood. We should go to
Speaker 4: Annie's Law, Amy's Law, whatever, neighborhood Watchdog one of these sites.
Speaker 1: And of course my neighbor was on there.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I gotta look at these things. I have children,
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, no, I should know do his picture was?
Speaker 6: I mean, well, you know that's why we keep the
Speaker 6: kids not locked up, but very close to locked up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as close to locked up as possible.
Speaker 1: You leave that bulldog running around the neighborhood. I mean
Speaker 1: it's well, I shouldn't know. She never kids up when
Speaker 1: that guy?
Speaker 4: Did you specify when that guy you noticed your dog
Speaker 4: was in the place, did you then just slam the
Speaker 4: door shut?
Speaker 6: You know he was He immediately got apologetic and like
Speaker 6: backed off.
Speaker 1: Oh, And I was like, mmmm, that's what I thought.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I'm just suspicious of that.
Speaker 3: Did he want you out of the house so that
Speaker 3: they could go in or did they want you up
Speaker 3: somewhere so that he could mug you?
Speaker 1: All right? Yeah, no one of the two.
Speaker 4: I went the minute the dog ran in and sprayed
Speaker 4: him right in the face with pepper spray.
Speaker 1: I will say that it was.
Speaker 6: One of those things that just gives you that cold
Speaker 6: feeling in your body of like you so easily get
Speaker 6: walked into these things, right, and.
Speaker 2: Especially when the people are nice and like Nacy Nicy.
Speaker 1: Right, they're helping.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I walked past a woman the other day and she
Speaker 4: was kind of doing her hair, and from behind I
Speaker 4: couldn't tell that she was very much on crack or something,
Speaker 4: but she was like using a reflection in a window
Speaker 4: to do her hair. And I just glanced over, and
Speaker 4: then she got behind me and said, did you did
Speaker 4: you mess with my shit? Did you mess with my shit?
Speaker 4: And she pushed me and then I turned around and
Speaker 4: it was just an irate I'm like, I don't know
Speaker 4: what you but she wasn't going to listen to reason,
Speaker 4: and she just kept getting in my face.
Speaker 1: And then some woman that works in like.
Speaker 4: A bridal shop, was like, oh, it's okay, she's she.
Speaker 1: Like knew of her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And he just gave her a look and the
Speaker 4: lady totally snapped out of it, and Mike smiled and
Speaker 4: walked away, and.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that was just a fun game to her. Yeah.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, she's just mentally ill and shouldn't be
Speaker 3: on the street because that all those people used to
Speaker 3: be in mental hospitals, but because of Ronald Reagan, they
Speaker 3: all live on the street now. I just walked drove
Speaker 3: down Sunset and there was just long strips of sidewalk
Speaker 3: that are homeless encampments with garbage everywhere.
Speaker 2: It looks like post apocalyptic. It looks like a movie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they are ninety percent mentally ill.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, They're just trying to get by. It's horrible.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm always seeing, especially when it's a lady that
Speaker 4: just looks like my mom wandering around.
Speaker 1: I can't, can't and let it.
Speaker 4: And she's got shoes that were probably nice a couple
Speaker 4: of years ago when she had an apartment.
Speaker 1: I fucking came in. It's horrible. It drives me nuts,
Speaker 1: and I like to cheer people up on this podcast
Speaker 1: with just relate to what other fun things are you doing? Well?
Speaker 6: It's you know, it's just like these drive through coffee
Speaker 6: places homeless encampments are popping up in every city across
Speaker 6: It's true. They're all dealing with both things.
Speaker 2: It is true. Hi, Yeah, can I get a VENTI
Speaker 2: of your iced tea lemonade? Tell anything you want?
Speaker 1: I would. I want to have your exact same order.

Speaker 3: we started going to Starbucks drive through. So now at
Speaker 3: all of at least my favorite Murder live shows, and
Speaker 3: then Chris is starting to get it too. At his
Speaker 3: comedy shows, people will come in the meet and greet

Speaker 2: Starbucks gift cards so we both have a ton It's
Speaker 2: the best. It's the best thing we never meant to

Speaker 1: it's the.
Speaker 2: Kist, no serendipity, Yeah, both mixed together.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm reaping the rewards of it right now.
Speaker 2: This is fantastic, enjoyed.
Speaker 1: This is good.
Speaker 6: Actually, I like that you order it as an iced
Speaker 6: tea lemonade and not as the impronounceable Arnold Palmer.
Speaker 1: Arnold Palmer, what a hard name. You know.
Speaker 4: He drive a lot of cars that were rear real drives,
Speaker 4: rear wheel.
Speaker 2: Arnold Palmer, mirror. You feel like you're drunk when you're
Speaker 2: trying to say Arnold, or I do.
Speaker 1: I'm just swallowing the whole word.
Speaker 2: It's Yeld Palmer, all in the back.
Speaker 1: Horrible name.
Speaker 2: You have to keep it way in the back.
Speaker 3: I saw on my way to pick up these guys
Speaker 3: at the office, of course was late, as we all know,
Speaker 3: there was a big strip of brown rug in the
Speaker 3: center thing and it literally looked like somebody hit a
Speaker 3: brown bear but it was like right in the middle
Speaker 3: of Silver Lake, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 3: someone killed the Saint Bernard or it was crazy, But
Speaker 3: then it.
Speaker 4: Was just cordct You imagine how horrified you would have
Speaker 4: been if it was one of those brown bear rugs
Speaker 4: and the head.
Speaker 2: Was at the end of it end someone just threw
Speaker 2: it away.
Speaker 6: It would just that would be you got to pick
Speaker 6: that up.
Speaker 1: That should be some prank that.
Speaker 6: You know, Ashton Kutcher or someone should pull on someone.
Speaker 1: In college.
Speaker 6: Yeah, my friend sent me a box and I didn't
Speaker 6: know what it was and I opened it up and
Speaker 6: it was a fake stuffed polar bear rug. So as
Speaker 6: I opened it it was it looked on first open
Speaker 6: like a real bear's face.
Speaker 1: It scared me. I was scared. It was a great brank.
Speaker 6: We used to mail each other pranks and that was
Speaker 6: the I think that might have ended it. Yeah, it
Speaker 6: seems expensive.
Speaker 4: It's hard to top severed animal head in a box
Speaker 4: when it comes to pranks.
Speaker 2: Here's a good prank. The boys.
Speaker 3: My sister's neighbors in her college apartment put a freeze dried,
Speaker 3: curled up rattlesnake into her car when we were moving
Speaker 3: her out of her apartment. So I opened the passenger door,
Speaker 3: put something in, looked down.
Speaker 2: There was a coiled up ready.
Speaker 3: To strike rattlesnake, and I just moved backwards and shut
Speaker 3: the door quick more quickly than I've ever moved in
Speaker 3: my life. And they were all standing up on the
Speaker 3: porch watching and they were like whoa, And they were
Speaker 3: like really impressed because I didn't scream, I didn't have
Speaker 3: a reaction. I just got away from it as physically
Speaker 3: fast as I could. And I've always been incredibly proud
Speaker 3: of myself for that.
Speaker 1: I know I would stand the test of a real rattle.
Speaker 3: I really I passed a rattlesnake drat test, and I
Speaker 3: don't think that's easy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's huge.
Speaker 4: I fell down my stairs the other day and kind
Speaker 4: of did a diving role and ended up on my feet,
Speaker 4: and I just was proud that.
Speaker 1: It's like, my reflexes are still there. Wow, still do that?
Speaker 2: What's Paul? What are you proud of?
Speaker 1: I am also proud of my reflexes.
Speaker 6: I feel like, especially when you become a father, your
Speaker 6: reflex has become more important. Do you have to I've
Speaker 6: caught a child by the face.
Speaker 4: Before wowing, just scream I can't even pull my basketball.
Speaker 6: My daughter was on the stairs and she was going
Speaker 6: to jump to me, but instead of jumping, she did
Speaker 6: like a trust fall. So she ended up about, you know,
Speaker 6: a couple stairs shorter than she should have, and I
Speaker 6: caught her face right before it hit the stairs.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, And it was she so she.
Speaker 6: Wasn't hurt and didn't at all appreciate what an amazing catch.
Speaker 1: I there's no one to share this great moment in
Speaker 1: her mind. You just slapped her in the face.
Speaker 2: Ow.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, yeah, ow, but I would have fallen
Speaker 1: off the stairs. Yeah.
Speaker 4: There's a compilation out there of dad's oh you're having
Speaker 4: their kids at the last minute video that is some
Speaker 4: of them are horrifying, like out of control car into
Speaker 4: a gas station and people are just grabbing kids by
Speaker 4: their faces. Yeah, yeah, at the last minute. And it's
Speaker 4: you know, it's old. It's not a bunch of athletes
Speaker 4: doing this. It's because everyone has that fight or flight instinct, like, yeah,
Speaker 4: your quick twitch muscles, we'll just wake up when it's
Speaker 4: a kid.
Speaker 3: I think one time Nora was on a like a
Speaker 3: play structure at the playground across the street from my
Speaker 3: sister's house, and she was two and she walked very
Speaker 3: very early. I think she was walking at like nine
Speaker 3: months or something. It was really creepy, and she would
Speaker 3: run down the street and people would like stop and
Speaker 3: talk to my sister because it looked it looked like
Speaker 3: we had a puppet the night way. So she was
Speaker 3: on this play structure and she was going to She
Speaker 3: was showing me how she was going to go and
Speaker 3: run across that little bridge. You know how they make
Speaker 3: a little bridges sometimes that.
Speaker 2: Are kind of loose. Oh yeah, and then kids think
Speaker 2: it's great to run across them.
Speaker 3: So she was climbing up the stairs to get onto
Speaker 3: the bridge, and at the top she just started falling backwards.
Speaker 3: But I was on the other end of where the
Speaker 3: bridge was ready to catch her on that end, and
Speaker 3: I moved so lightning fast and caught her by the
Speaker 3: back of the head and just tipped her back up,
Speaker 3: and then she went anyway.
Speaker 2: It was like for her, it was just like a
Speaker 2: weird thing that then she was going.
Speaker 3: But for me, at like I saved her from intense
Speaker 3: brain damage by some like the flash moves where it
Speaker 3: was just like I was here and then I was
Speaker 3: here catching her, and I don't remember like any steps
Speaker 3: in between.
Speaker 1: That's so great.
Speaker 2: It was crazy.
Speaker 1: I love that stuff.
Speaker 6: It's the you know, it's the superpowers of our human nature.
Speaker 3: M hmm.
Speaker 1: It's they really show up in those weird moments like that.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, why can't they just be around all day? We
Speaker 1: got to keep putting yourself in mortal peril.
Speaker 6: Yeah, right, that's right, and you will be great and
Speaker 6: long may you run, but eventually you'll miss the catch
Speaker 6: and you'll die from it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I should start living my life with my back against
Speaker 4: the wall, just just for my just for my reflexes.
Speaker 6: Well, just just look behind you, Chris.
Speaker 1: You are we all are Yeah, you're right. You're threatening me.
Speaker 2: You guys are going to get into a fight.
Speaker 6: Oh man, this is the ideal scenario to get in
Speaker 6: a fight with someone directly behind them scraped into the car.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've done it before.
Speaker 4: You grab the seat belt, the slack, you wrap it
Speaker 4: around their neck. Everyone knows that. You put their feet
Speaker 4: behind their seat and then you yank until nobody's breathing, Right, Karen,
Speaker 4: that's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: You've got to remember these things.
Speaker 1: Or if you have an extension cord nearby. That'll do
Speaker 1: the trade too.
Speaker 6: I've got a whole plate full of courts right next
Speaker 6: to some of these.
Speaker 1: Look pretty thick.
Speaker 2: You brought the chords, right, Paul, Oh.
Speaker 6: Yes, I travel with cords.
Speaker 4: You never know when someone's gonna need to recharge their
Speaker 4: phone or get.
Speaker 6: Choked out or get killed, gets killed out, just get
Speaker 6: killed lacks man skirt?
Speaker 3: Are you are they still doing the squat melt m
Speaker 3: have you?
Speaker 2: Have you done it recently?
Speaker 1: We just did it last night.
Speaker 2: Can you tell us a little bit about it? Because
Speaker 2: I love that idea?
Speaker 4: Does everyone close their set with the police shutting down
Speaker 4: the thing.
Speaker 1: The police have?
Speaker 6: Now that the squatmelt has moved, it's now a comedy crawl,
Speaker 6: a tool if you will, right, Okay, It's got a
Speaker 6: lot less attention from security types, which is nice.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2: So tell people what you're talking about. Okay, So the
Speaker 2: people that I've never heard of.
Speaker 1: It, okay.
Speaker 6: Squad melt started when the Meltdown Comics Theater closed down.
Speaker 6: Howard Kramer felt like just because the place was closing
Speaker 6: didn't mean comedy shit and at that address, so he
Speaker 6: did a show in their parking lot.
Speaker 1: But it was amazing.
Speaker 6: The first few one were performing in like the old
Speaker 6: trash and signs of meltdown comics, so it was it
Speaker 6: was quite hilarious. And then we were at the Steve
Speaker 6: Allen Theater for a while in their parking lot, another
Speaker 6: closed down comedy venue as seen in the TV show Bear.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I just recognized that in Barry.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's exciting.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 6: And now it's been ripped down. It is now also
Speaker 6: torn to the ground.
Speaker 2: Is that true?
Speaker 1: Yeah, they leveled it this week.
Speaker 4: Oh those poor old men, those poor old atheists running
Speaker 4: around either making classes.
Speaker 1: What do we do today to push the movement of
Speaker 1: no religion? I don't.
Speaker 4: They all wear old men and they were adorable, but
Speaker 4: they were like atheists.
Speaker 1: Yeah, whole bunch of roy Orbisons.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was Roy Orbits and a famous saving I
Speaker 6: don't know.
Speaker 4: He just wore a lot of black and were weird across,
Speaker 4: like bolo tie and he looks like a Satanist to me,
Speaker 4: but maybe that's just in his TV concert.
Speaker 2: At the one time.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I still have a haunted grandmother.
Speaker 1: It's so good.
Speaker 4: Do you know the concert I'm talking about where there
Speaker 4: it's like tea in black and white. Yes, and it's
Speaker 4: it's beautiful and all the backup people, it's Katie Lang
Speaker 4: and all these people. But they he looks so cool
Speaker 4: in it, you know, his hair and the glasses and
Speaker 4: everything he was doing to just cover up his face
Speaker 4: that he didn't he felt awkward about.
Speaker 1: But man, makes sense, I want to do that.
Speaker 6: He needed to get a big black wig, a nice
Speaker 6: dusty black wig. You can giant faded glasses.
Speaker 3: So so once it left the Sea Valan Theater with
Speaker 3: Roy Robertson and the people who love Satan, you then
Speaker 3: it's just a crawl.
Speaker 2: Then it's just been going from place to place.
Speaker 1: Well it was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the time I was on it, it was across
Speaker 4: the street from there, so they crawled to cross the street.
Speaker 4: And that was a day where all those cops they
Speaker 4: were like fanned out.
Speaker 1: It was like seven cars. Yeah, that was intense. They
Speaker 1: were like are we getting arrested?
Speaker 6: And we were in the Barnsdale Park parking lot at
Speaker 6: that point, and I think that's where that was not
Speaker 6: a place.
Speaker 1: To do that.
Speaker 6: That was the smart smart venue, right, But just walking
Speaker 6: up and down the street, it's sort of close closed
Speaker 6: shops and murals, and it is really funny just to
Speaker 6: watch the character of each person set shaped by the
Speaker 6: environment that they're put into.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I realized a couple of weeks ago, I
Speaker 3: was going to dinner at Friend sixty two with my
Speaker 3: friend and as we were walking up, it took me
Speaker 3: forever to put it together that it was a squat.
Speaker 2: I think it was Megan Keyester doing a set.
Speaker 1: At squat melt uh huh.
Speaker 3: What it looked like and what I assumed it was
Speaker 3: because remember there was a theater right by Skylight Books, yes,
Speaker 3: and there'd always be actors like rehearsing on the sidewalk.
Speaker 2: I thought it was some fucking gorilla theater thing.
Speaker 3: And I immediate was like, look at these fucking nerds,
Speaker 3: and I was like so angry and hateful, and then
Speaker 3: I was like, oh wait, that's Megan Geyster. I immediately
Speaker 3: realized it was squatt. No, I'm like, oh, those were
Speaker 3: all my friends. But yeah, it was pretty funny. I
Speaker 3: a lot of hate for it. First. I also because
Speaker 3: someone had a camera and a light, yes, so it
Speaker 3: just looked like la douchebaggery, And that is.
Speaker 6: Definitely a lot of the reaction it gets on Vermont's Boulevard. Yeah,
Speaker 6: people are at whatever it is.
Speaker 1: That's funny.
Speaker 3: Everyone's so afraid to be the bad hipster that they
Speaker 3: love when they see the bad hipster, like, there's a
Speaker 3: real bad hipster.
Speaker 2: It's not me, Yeah, exact guy.
Speaker 4: Everyone gets mad when they see something non union happening.
Speaker 6: Megan Heaster was on the show last night and she
Speaker 6: did a set with Alison Stevenson and that they one
Speaker 6: point put the question out who here has a pilot,
Speaker 6: and then they made a couple of people explain what
Speaker 6: their pilots were. And to see it done in Los
Speaker 6: Felise like that was chilly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was just like.
Speaker 6: Oh god, no, no one suddenly wanted to talk about
Speaker 6: their so not at all.
Speaker 1: Of course, it was incredible. That's so funny.
Speaker 4: But you gotta be able to no matter what the situation,
Speaker 4: you gotta fire it off because you never know what
Speaker 4: executive you're going to be sitting next to on the Greyhound.
Speaker 2: Every day is an audition in Los Angeles, That's right.
Speaker 4: That's why I just walk around singing and dance and
Speaker 4: waiting for a baby to follow.
Speaker 2: You know, that is that is what Michael Caine.
Speaker 3: That was his number one advice to actors is treat
Speaker 3: everything you do and everywhere you go like an audition,
Speaker 3: because it is in Los Angeles?
Speaker 2: Is not guy the best?
Speaker 6: Michael Kaine with that voice to giving that advice, I
Speaker 6: want to follow it.
Speaker 1: Every day an audition. Every day I'm Michael Kaine.
Speaker 2: Like I'm Michael Kaine.
Speaker 4: I have to say his name to do. All my
Speaker 4: impressions are saying the guy's name. Sure money, Michael Kaine.
Speaker 4: See didn't I say that?
Speaker 1: You're finding it?
Speaker 3: You're definitely actually almost we're doing an impression of the
Speaker 3: guys from the trip doing him hion Michael, Okay, it's
Speaker 3: really this is very It's.
Speaker 4: Like it's like an impersonator's game of telephone.
Speaker 6: You know, I don't like the gossip about celebrities that much.
Speaker 6: But but Josh Grobin attended Squat Melt and watched the
Speaker 6: entire show, really stayed for the whole two hours, traveled
Speaker 6: with the program and watched it and had a great time.
Speaker 6: It's really funny. It's such a it's such a unique experience.
Speaker 6: People are really loose with it. It's really fun. Josh,
Speaker 6: Josh is a unique experience.
Speaker 1: He seems undeniably like a cool, funny guy.
Speaker 6: He's an icebreaker. Yeah, he's got he was on Ally McBeal.
Speaker 6: You know there's I don't like the music.
Speaker 2: The Christian music.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that what he does? Yeah?
Speaker 6: I just know the song from Polar Express.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's starts Christmas Christian evangelical.
Speaker 3: Oh well, but he also has a new TV show
Speaker 3: that's a comedy where he plays I think some kind
Speaker 3: of a detective or something.
Speaker 1: Tony Danza is in it, or am I making that up?
Speaker 1: I think I don't know. Tony dan looks like it's dad.
Speaker 3: But maybe that's why he's like trying to hang out
Speaker 3: around comedian.
Speaker 4: He's playing it by the books. Tony danzas a loose
Speaker 4: cannon together.
Speaker 2: Is it Tony Dan's who's the caboose?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yeah, hard to believe that Tony Danza could once play
Speaker 6: a loose cannon.
Speaker 1: He looks stressed out. Yeah does he he does? He's
Speaker 1: got the Did he.
Speaker 2: Make some bad investments?
Speaker 1: Who it looks like stress.
Speaker 2: I see a lot of finance stuff around the.
Speaker 5: Eyes, yes, oh yeah, A little wrinkles shape like dollars
Speaker 5: with negatives, specific hardened brow, a squint, a little that
Speaker 5: light gone.
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm judging Tony dance a little bit
Speaker 3: because I'm thinking of Scott bo in all of his antics, right,
Speaker 3: and they kind of look alike.
Speaker 1: Yeah they did in the beginning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but now I don't think Tony Danzon deserves that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're probably right, Hans. It's got a few years
Speaker 1: on Bayo. Yeah, he was already a grown ass man
Speaker 1: in taxi. Isn't that crazy to think?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 1: He I bet he was twenty eight. I bet he
Speaker 1: was really Yeah, definitely. The funny thing is, so was
Speaker 1: the little Danny DeVito. Probably it's crazy.
Speaker 4: I will never My favorite piece of trivia is that
Speaker 4: Wilford Brimley was fifty two in Cocoon.
Speaker 1: I'm just going to say that every episode.
Speaker 2: No, it's worth it.
Speaker 3: It's worth it because we have to think about this,
Speaker 3: that we are living better as human beings these days.
Speaker 1: Did you see the Cocoon Coast or the feul Peralta? Yes,
Speaker 1: guy from Ben put Us in the Yeah, Yeah he
Speaker 1: did good, he did he done did good. I'm going
Speaker 1: to find this content.
Speaker 4: Just just go online and just go straight to that
Speaker 4: scene where it's old people break dancing that's my favorite.
Speaker 4: They don't see it in movies anymore where it's clearly
Speaker 4: a stunt man and his wig is crooked, yes, or
Speaker 4: a stunt dancer. But man, when they all get the
Speaker 4: feeling because they got cocoon juice in them, apparently they
Speaker 4: just start breaking electric bugaloo.
Speaker 2: I think it's really good though, that old people.
Speaker 3: Doing young things comedy is over, because after there's something
Speaker 3: about Mary or the wedding singer with the rapin Granny,
Speaker 3: there was about a decade of like solid like MTV
Speaker 3: promos which had old people rapping and.
Speaker 1: They just put old man makeup on all.
Speaker 3: And there was always there was always a rap element
Speaker 3: to it. So it was the you're just watching old
Speaker 3: actors humiliate themselves for money.
Speaker 2: And I hated it so fucking much. I hated it, and.
Speaker 6: I'll never get the cash in on it. Yeahcause when
Speaker 6: I'm old, there they won't be rapping anymore.
Speaker 3: What if it comes back around when you're old.
Speaker 1: And really peaks, it's I'm gonna start rapping again.
Speaker 4: Shit, I can get speak coming such a thing because
Speaker 4: now there are old I see guys with white hair skateboarding,
Speaker 4: and now young people don't know who outcast is there
Speaker 4: are old people going hippity a hippity hop at at
Speaker 4: or whatever.
Speaker 1: That song is the one that the old hop.
Speaker 4: And that you'll see an old person do that at
Speaker 4: karaoke and it wouldn't even be ironic, it would.
Speaker 1: Just be well received. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, oh that makes sense. So that little
Speaker 4: window of time is gone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all gotten. The irony is dead.
Speaker 6: Well, I just saw that Beg's Award show got their
Speaker 6: lowest ratings ever. Then I realized maybe hip hop is
Speaker 6: having the same thing happened to them, the rock and
Speaker 6: roll happened, and electronic music is gonna take it will
Speaker 6: be we'll have old DJs.
Speaker 1: But that's not funny, right, you know, drinking a red ball.
Speaker 1: That's not that funny.
Speaker 2: It really isn't. We should work on it.
Speaker 4: Yeah. What have I stopped waving their hands because they
Speaker 4: just don't care anymore?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: What if we just started caring? Yeah, come on, everybody.
Speaker 1: What if you wave your hands like you.
Speaker 2: Do care, but not in the air down down by
Speaker 2: your hips?
Speaker 1: Yeah you you care about your hips?
Speaker 6: So old people can't reach that high. That's why it's funny.
Speaker 6: That's actually sad.
Speaker 2: This sounds of cracking. That's what's funny.
Speaker 1: Get those joints miked up.
Speaker 4: I like how that press works for the city Parking
Speaker 4: Division and it says watch the road and he's covered
Speaker 4: with dents and he just pulled in front of us,
Speaker 4: like timidly.
Speaker 2: He just cut He just essentially cut us off.
Speaker 4: Yeah, where's the round number? I want to tell someone
Speaker 4: how hands driving is.
Speaker 2: I want to talk to the city comptroller.
Speaker 1: This is the under this bridge. I skateboard sometimes really
Speaker 1: curbs home depot.
Speaker 4: Eytesn't set up, but they it's now a bust.
Speaker 1: As they say.
Speaker 4: Oh, the guy came in his old golf cart and
Speaker 4: he was like, I'm sorry, but it came from corporate
Speaker 4: that you guys can't skateboard any.
Speaker 1: He was like really sad about it.
Speaker 4: Oh, I think it's great, but my boss, there's a
Speaker 4: camera in there. And then if there's people skateboarding, he
Speaker 4: looks at me. And then I got to come over here,
Speaker 4: and I'm like, you stop now, you're already the nicest security.
Speaker 1: Guard ever went and whatever happened to that?
Speaker 4: Yeah, old people are rapping and security guards are tugging
Speaker 4: at my heartstrings.
Speaker 3: It would be funny if then you cut the inside
Speaker 3: of home depot. There's no office, there's no camera. That
Speaker 3: guy's just intentionally emotionally manipulating you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't work for home deepo. He's just a
Speaker 1: guy with a golf cart.
Speaker 2: It's just a masshole with a golf card.
Speaker 1: He's just playing through.
Speaker 6: He thinks it's a good golf course. That is an
Speaker 6: alarming character. I'm not ready to admit that that.
Speaker 1: Could be real.
Speaker 2: Mind sucked security guard.
Speaker 6: Yeah, all you have to do is buy a golf cart,
Speaker 6: like border patrol those guys that volunteer to do that, but.
Speaker 1: Just lower steaks all the Zimmerman type dudes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Paul, have you ever been arrested or interacted with
Speaker 3: security in a in a violence?
Speaker 1: How much time did you do and was a federal
Speaker 1: or state prison?
Speaker 2: Let's hear about it.
Speaker 1: I've never been arrested.
Speaker 6: I've been I've been kicked out of places skateboarding when
Speaker 6: I was a kid, or you know, writing around in
Speaker 6: shopping carts, and it's how it used to be now,
Speaker 6: just when you'd have fun in parking lots as as
Speaker 6: a youth.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but uh no, I never got locked up.
Speaker 2: Oh that's good.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was very fortunate all through all through my
Speaker 6: years where I maybe had it come in.
Speaker 2: You never had to go to juvie.
Speaker 6: I never No, No, I never had to go to juvia.
Speaker 6: Get my nose clean, Karen, have you been thrown in
Speaker 6: the slammer?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I haven't, okay, or if I.
Speaker 3: Was, I was blocked out during it and I don't remember,
Speaker 3: but that doesn't count.
Speaker 1: Or you block it out because it's a terrible experience.
Speaker 2: Yeah, emotionally I couldn't handle it.
Speaker 3: But no, I'm actually very afraid of authority in that
Speaker 3: way of like I never do anything that might get
Speaker 3: me in trouble, in the way of like people going
Speaker 3: let's let's sneak into this concert. I would never do that,
Speaker 3: Like if I could get caught like shoplifting type stuff.
Speaker 3: I've always been beyond paranoid to quote unquote get in
Speaker 3: trouble like lust concept.
Speaker 6: It's not worth it, the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never.
Speaker 4: I've never I've been lined up to get handcuffed because
Speaker 4: we were skating in the street and the cop threw
Speaker 4: he was in his regular car, his personal vehicle, and
Speaker 4: he threw open the door and right then it was
Speaker 4: after a basketball game.
Speaker 1: Right then, a news van ripped the door off his car,
Speaker 1: amazing and throwing him to the ground because he was
Speaker 1: holding on to it.
Speaker 4: And he was so mad, like it was our fault,
Speaker 4: and he started yelling at us, and we're like, hey,
Speaker 4: we didn't have anything to do with what just happened.
Speaker 4: And then he was like, let us go, and he
Speaker 4: was embarrassed.
Speaker 1: He was embarrassed. Then he's embarrassed.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's like, maybe you shouldn't let us skateboard
Speaker 4: across the bridge through stopped traffic.
Speaker 1: We're in a small town. It wasn't a big deal.
Speaker 6: Yeah, now you have to explain why you got the
Speaker 6: door ripped off your car like an idiot.
Speaker 4: Tug again, knowing that you probably have to put your
Speaker 4: badge on his desk and on Monday.
Speaker 2: Turn your gun in. Your door got ripped off. What
Speaker 2: if that's like the one.
Speaker 3: Rules, the one rule of cops. It's unspoken, but you
Speaker 3: know it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you can't understand the mechanics of traffic and
Speaker 4: your door, you shouldn't be operating a firearm.
Speaker 3: No, I had to drive through a bowl traffic the
Speaker 3: other night beforehand and there was a guy that was
Speaker 3: because in Los Angeles, as we in this car, No,
Speaker 3: but maybe you don't know if you live somewhere else.
Speaker 2: No, everyone drives everyone.
Speaker 3: If you're waiting to go left on red, no one
Speaker 3: will stop in time, and you end up going left
Speaker 3: on I mean you have you have to wait till
Speaker 3: the light is red to take your left hand, and.
Speaker 1: The person behind you most likely is going to do
Speaker 1: it too.
Speaker 3: Even though yes, so people will so and it gets crazy.
Speaker 3: And then when the Hollywood bull is in session, it
Speaker 3: gets terrible because the people get mad that they're made
Speaker 3: to wait for more than four minutes and they start
Speaker 3: going totally deserved yeah.
Speaker 1: Because they basically paved a farm road to get you
Speaker 1: to home.
Speaker 2: It's so bad.
Speaker 1: Whatever.
Speaker 3: So there was a guy that was that was basically
Speaker 3: making people stop correctly and letting people go when.
Speaker 2: They were allowed to.
Speaker 3: But he's standing there in the middle of traffic just
Speaker 3: doing this real chill, and I'm like, everyone could kill
Speaker 3: him right now.
Speaker 1: Wait, was he just a guy with a golf cart?
Speaker 4: No, because you could just buy a vest and in
Speaker 4: direct traffic'.
Speaker 3: Oh wait, now that I think about it, there was
Speaker 3: a golf cart parked in the.
Speaker 1: Street as well, guys everywhere.
Speaker 2: Man, he's a scammer, but.
Speaker 1: He's just doing nice things.
Speaker 6: He sees a problem and he's fixing it. Yeah, he's
Speaker 6: filling the void. That's right, innovator.
Speaker 4: I do have reoccurring a reoccurring dream. I always wake
Speaker 4: up thinking I've done a crime. I have like nightmares
Speaker 4: that I killed someone and I forgot about it and
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, it's the same as like
Speaker 4: the nightmare where you didn't finish math homework and so
Speaker 4: you have to go back to high school. Yep, it's
Speaker 4: always right before I wake up, I think. But I
Speaker 4: have one where it's a very specific dream. But I
Speaker 4: buried a bunch of office equipment. I crawled into it,
Speaker 4: and it's reoccurring, and so it's copiers and everything. I
Speaker 4: put it in plastic bags and I buried it in
Speaker 4: before on Mount Central. Yeah, but I stole the stuff
Speaker 4: in Helena and I was with these friends of mine.
Speaker 4: It's very specific, and when I have the dream, there's
Speaker 4: nothing more real than it to where I'm like, where's
Speaker 4: that coming from?
Speaker 1: And did I do that? Yes?
Speaker 4: Right, I'm watching the confession tapes right now, and if
Speaker 4: someone said you know you did you know you did.
Speaker 1: This, and they didn't get specific.
Speaker 4: I would just say I'm sorry, I stole all that
Speaker 4: office equipment. I thought it was a dream. Yeah, I'm so.
Speaker 4: I'm glad. I'll never be interrogated because I would fold
Speaker 4: and I would say, yes, right, I did it, because
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, nobody trusts their mind.
Speaker 3: The least trustworthy thing about me is my brain and
Speaker 3: the way it fucking works and shit it tells me.
Speaker 3: So like, yeah, if you're if you were like, no, no, no,
Speaker 3: that wasn't a dream, Karen, you actually did that, I'd
Speaker 3: be like, oh fuck, I don't believe anyone over me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and try and try and use that defense in
Speaker 4: a court of law. You can be I mean, I
Speaker 4: don't know what my brain's telling me to do you guys,
Speaker 4: you can be charismatically saying that they're like, yeah, he's guilty,
Speaker 4: but they don't know what it's like to be in
Speaker 4: the hot seat.
Speaker 2: No, I have no idea.
Speaker 6: That's why I told my my wife to stop asking
Speaker 6: me if I locked the car, Like, if we've left
Speaker 6: the car, just let's all assume I locked it. But
Speaker 6: if you ask me, I will have to walk two.
Speaker 1: Blocks back and relock that. I'm tired of taking that
Speaker 1: walk in.
Speaker 3: The all the times that you had to do, take
Speaker 3: that walk and make that check. Were there times where
Speaker 3: the car was not locked?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Yeah, never I locked the.
Speaker 2: Everyone does. It's automatic when you get out, isn't it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Pretty much.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I got an older car than this. You still
Speaker 1: you still got to push the button?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you have to do this? No, no, no,
Speaker 2: hold the handle.
Speaker 1: It thank god. No, it's on the It's on the fob.
Speaker 1: At least nice. Did you say on the fob? On
Speaker 1: the fob? What is that? You know? You're the thing?
Speaker 1: I didn't know.
Speaker 2: It's called the fob. Yeah, work fob, guys.
Speaker 4: And I know it's probably people assume this, but I
Speaker 4: do learn something new every day.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of things I don't know.
Speaker 2: That's true about you.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Great that every day it happened, and it'll be a
Speaker 4: word where I'm like, like I one time I went
Speaker 4: with Michelle and Martha to six Flags and this was
Speaker 4: not this was less than a decade ago, and Michelle said,
Speaker 4: go pick up our tickets there.
Speaker 1: It will call, and I'm like, we'll call. What's a
Speaker 1: will call. She's like, will call the boot. I didn't.
Speaker 1: I'd never heard that phrase.
Speaker 2: Are you serious? Yeah? Incredible?
Speaker 4: And then the same thing with them. They were angry.
Speaker 4: They were like mad that I didn't know that, and
Speaker 4: I sorry I did. It wasn't some rich kid going
Speaker 4: to concerts growing up.
Speaker 1: I've never been to a will call. There aren't a lot.
Speaker 4: Of music going experiences in Montana where there's even a ticket.
Speaker 4: You just walk up and you pant someone five dollars,
Speaker 4: like it was rarely a concert. You hadn't been a
Speaker 4: Broadway right, And people are always like, what was the
Speaker 4: first concert you went to. I'm like, I don't know,
Speaker 4: Jay's upstairs. I probably saw a punk band and didn't pay.
Speaker 4: Like I just didn't know about ticket booths until I
Speaker 4: was in the big fancy city.
Speaker 3: Well that's where they belong, that's what that's where all
Speaker 3: the best ticket booths are.
Speaker 1: Fancy stace.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the ticket booths and in Hollywood and blazoned
Speaker 4: with gold and the glasses bulletproof.
Speaker 1: It's so fancy. What was the first big concert? I
Speaker 1: was just gonna ask.
Speaker 6: I was curious concerts, and I was thinking, well, I
Speaker 6: just said.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't remember.
Speaker 4: It's always a question on like an interview or yeah,
Speaker 4: it's I do not recall.
Speaker 1: Can we make one up for you? That?
Speaker 4: I mean, I saw Screaming Trees once. That was pretty early.
Speaker 4: That's a real concert situation. But that definitely wasn't the
Speaker 4: first one.
Speaker 2: What was yours, Paul.
Speaker 6: My first big concert was Tom Petty. Oh it was.
Speaker 1: It was really amazing.
Speaker 6: The Black Crows open for them, and that was it
Speaker 6: was really cute, like the Black Crows are like, you know,
Speaker 6: they're definitely obviously.
Speaker 1: They played a lot of live music.
Speaker 6: They're a real kind of loose rock band, and you know,
Speaker 6: a couple of their songs.
Speaker 1: It was fun.
Speaker 6: And then Tom Petty's so fucking good and you know
Speaker 6: every song. But the guy behind me loved it so
Speaker 6: much and was screaming yeah the whole time.
Speaker 1: I would I won't even do it.
Speaker 6: I don't want to imitate in how because we're in
Speaker 6: a small space. But it almost ruined it for I
Speaker 6: left in a bad movie.
Speaker 1: Sure, sure, don't sing in a concert.
Speaker 2: Wait, just do stage whisper.
Speaker 3: But but give us the like longevity and intensity and
Speaker 3: whatever of like oh wow, wall back down, scam me.
Speaker 4: Up, hell but uh, not singing along, just screaming. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I likeny waiting, pausing while the guy yelled yeah, it's
Speaker 4: so stupid. Well, there was a ice on his band, Typhoon,
Speaker 4: and I knew nothing about him, but they have a
Speaker 4: huge following, or like a Portland man.
Speaker 1: And the people behind me it was a couple.
Speaker 4: They were singing at top volume, but they were like
Speaker 4: good singers, and they knew all the lyrics and they
Speaker 4: were harmonizing with each other. And I was like, it
Speaker 4: was just like it was in stereo. I didn't give
Speaker 4: a shit about that. I hadn't seen them before.
Speaker 2: Oh that's good.
Speaker 1: They were great.
Speaker 4: I've never seen it, and it was amazing how good
Speaker 4: they were. It's just a band I'd never heard of.
Speaker 4: But the people behind me were pretty good too.
Speaker 1: It was just like an added experience. It's very rare.
Speaker 4: I just don't you start going yeah, but turning totally
Speaker 4: with my back to the stage.
Speaker 1: Yeah, two people that are six inches from my.
Speaker 3: Face, you it'd be such a passive, aggressive way to
Speaker 3: get them to stop. It's pretending you're so into it,
Speaker 3: you're ruining it. So how long did that guy do that.
Speaker 1: The whole time?
Speaker 6: No, like the city ramped, Like he wasn't doing that
Speaker 6: during Black Crows. I think he was more of a
Speaker 6: casual fan there. But the show was like, the Tom
Speaker 6: Petty part was so great, this kind of an ornate
Speaker 6: stained glass looking backdrop with all these pillars of stained glass,
Speaker 6: and I was like, wow, it's really beautiful. I'm subtle,
Speaker 6: and then it changes throughout the show, and by the
Speaker 6: end of it it's like if if you were on acid,
Speaker 6: it would have been fucking incredible. It would have been
Speaker 6: you wouldn't have gotten out of your seat for sure.
Speaker 6: But it was so good and I love Tom Petty
Speaker 6: so much that my blood was it turned to fire
Speaker 6: and it took me days to calm down.
Speaker 2: And how old would you say that guy was?
Speaker 6: Oh he was, you know, definitely in his fifties, the
Speaker 6: perfect or numerous all sense of decorum and self. And
Speaker 6: it's a rough time for a guy. You can become
Speaker 6: a real piece of shit.
Speaker 4: You know a lot about being in your fifties and
Speaker 4: then you just peel off a mass.
Speaker 1: You feel like an older version of yourself.
Speaker 3: That's why he gets all those man Cave commercials, because
Speaker 3: he knows what a boomer feels like.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I am fifty, but I do get botox. So
Speaker 6: I'm living the dream.
Speaker 2: The La dream. Have you? Oh? Have you guys seen?
Speaker 3: I was shown him by real video yesterday because I've
Speaker 3: been on a social media hiatus hiatus, and so my
Speaker 3: two friends came over and I was like, anything exciting
Speaker 3: happening on Twitter that I.
Speaker 2: Should know about?
Speaker 1: Have you guys are not even looking?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: God for you. I thought you just weren't contributing, but
Speaker 1: you did? You know? You still want to get your
Speaker 1: news and everything?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I don't. I can get news anywhere,
Speaker 2: and I don't want to get the news. It's all
Speaker 2: fucking horrifying.
Speaker 3: But yeah, that woman that got rescued out of the canyon,
Speaker 3: but then her the basket that they.
Speaker 2: Put her in, did you see? That's holy shit?
Speaker 3: It was so as they drew her up into the helicopter,
Speaker 3: the baskets starts spinning, and then it's spinning faster and
Speaker 3: faster and faster, and they can't they can't put it
Speaker 3: back down because as they start to lower it, it
Speaker 3: spins even faster. And that motherfucking basket was spinning for
Speaker 3: like four minutes.
Speaker 2: At top speed.
Speaker 1: It's amazing.
Speaker 2: It's crazy.
Speaker 1: She just was at the end. Now I'm also vomiting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but apparently she's fine and she just was dizzy,
Speaker 3: and it all fine for a week. They ended up
Speaker 3: having to fly away with the basket hanging under the
Speaker 3: helicopter so that it would stop spinning, which is scary.
Speaker 6: You've got to pay for the helicopter ride. Anyway, I
Speaker 6: feel like, leave me hanging down and keep me spinning
Speaker 6: for a while.
Speaker 1: Yeah that sounds.
Speaker 6: I love roller coasters, and you know, getting truly disoriented
Speaker 6: is it's pretty.
Speaker 4: Sure, pretty excited roller coaster that it can get on anything.
Speaker 4: We called it the Rocco planes, but whatever. When it
Speaker 4: was when it's a ferris wheel with cars that flip,
Speaker 4: but if it's spinning, even a children's teacup ride, I
Speaker 4: will vomit. And I really vomited it Pivotal points in
Speaker 4: my life where I'm just making friends. Yeah, domined right
Speaker 4: over them. They stole my friends to today. But the
Speaker 4: girl I was danding broke up with me.
Speaker 2: She wasn't into your vomits that Monday.
Speaker 1: She just is like, I can't believe you're a vomitter.
Speaker 2: Get away from me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a strong stomach. No you don't. In
Speaker 1: most cases, it was spinning. I was in the pool.
Speaker 6: That's the other thing about like reflexes is as you
Speaker 6: eventually you lose enough inner ear fluid where your balance
Speaker 6: is never the same.
Speaker 1: Oh no, irrecoverable.
Speaker 2: That's horrifying.
Speaker 1: And one day you're you know, you hop on that
Speaker 1: coaster and it is barf City, USA.
Speaker 2: And you can't move away. You are a citizen of
Speaker 2: Barf City.
Speaker 1: You've become the mayor of Barftown.
Speaker 6: My mom is very She throw up off ferris wheel.
Speaker 6: You know, we're on the ferris wheel. Give her a
Speaker 6: hard time about it, and then after you know, we
Speaker 6: finally land and she goes Barf's in the bathroom, just
Speaker 6: the you know, that sad look on your face after
Speaker 6: you you throw up and you just feel bad.
Speaker 1: You don't feel good. Usually, yeah, that's that. I felt horrible.
Speaker 1: I felt horrible. So we pushed her too far.
Speaker 3: Well, so it's fine if that's happening to you, but
Speaker 3: your mom is the person that makes that stop for you.
Speaker 3: So to see your mom felled that way is terrible.
Speaker 1: I was so mad. My parents made me play trombone.
Speaker 4: But one time my mom picked me up at school
Speaker 4: and she said, I'll carry your trombone, and then she
Speaker 4: slipped on the ice because she was holding a trombone
Speaker 4: and bruised her tailbone. And I just really felt awful
Speaker 4: and I wanted to bring that up.
Speaker 3: You quit, yeah, good, another one of those you quit
Speaker 3: trombone after that, though, Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm done, good, done, good, good smart.
Speaker 4: It's terrible to watch your mom slip on the ice
Speaker 4: holding your trombone.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me or anything?
Speaker 6: She would have caught herself if she wasn't holding your
Speaker 6: fucking trombone.
Speaker 3: I know she would have been a little whoo whoo
Speaker 3: woo after her arms out like a tap dancer.
Speaker 1: At least I could have been good at playing it.
Speaker 1: But I wasn't even good.
Speaker 2: God, none of that was worth it.
Speaker 1: Didn't practice. I forged a lot of my practice. She
Speaker 1: would have wasted. Yeah, I know. I could have been
Speaker 1: in a ska band, a ska band, and I've never
Speaker 1: met all You're never in just one sky.
Speaker 4: You're a trombone guy. You're spread pretty thin all over
Speaker 4: Moon Records.
Speaker 1: You're gigging, You're gigg Paul.
Speaker 2: Can you play an instrument?
Speaker 1: I can play the guitar, A little bit like.
Speaker 2: What Eagles level? Are we talking John Mott?
Speaker 1: Mayor No, like Eagles level?
Speaker 3: M M.
Speaker 6: Definitely a lot of like like John Prine and Robert
Speaker 6: Earl Keane like told her.
Speaker 2: John Frin writes some of the best three chord songs.
Speaker 1: Of all time. Yeah, you feel like you're doing a
Speaker 1: good job and it's really simple.
Speaker 3: Yes, he covers up those sweet lyrics with the simplest
Speaker 3: chord structure ever.
Speaker 6: So it's just, yeah, I can actually play it, you
Speaker 6: know what. And this is a proud achievement. I finally
Speaker 6: have been able to play a B chord without completely
Speaker 6: fucking it up.
Speaker 2: And doing the song for four full seconds.
Speaker 6: Yeah, now it's down to two, and I feel like
Speaker 6: that is stylistic.
Speaker 1: At this point, I don't know what a bee cord is.
Speaker 1: Why is it hard?
Speaker 2: It's a bar chord.
Speaker 3: So you have to like, if I'm can correct me,
Speaker 3: if I'm well, why is it hard for you?
Speaker 2: Why don't you answer?
Speaker 1: It's hard?
Speaker 6: So the you have to bar the top fret with
Speaker 6: your index finger, and then you have to get three
Speaker 6: other strings right next to each other, all pressed down,
Speaker 6: and you have to get them pressed right up against
Speaker 6: the fretbar.
Speaker 1: Otherwise it buzzes.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you like you kind of sit on the last
Speaker 6: string and it has a flat sound.
Speaker 3: So it's kind of like going like this, and you
Speaker 3: practice it and you do it wrong for the first
Speaker 3: forty thousand times you do it, and then finally your
Speaker 3: hand does it right and it's like it's not even
Speaker 3: about you.
Speaker 2: You don't really know why.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but suddenly it's doing it right, and it's so
Speaker 3: it's uncomfortable, it's weird, it hurts your hand, and congratulations,
