Speaker 1: I leave in I you wanna way back home? Either
Speaker 1: way we want to be there.
Speaker 2: Doesn't matter how.
Speaker 3: Much baggage you claim and give us time and aid
Speaker 3: Urmanol and gay A.
Speaker 2: We want to send you off InStyle. Do you wanna welcome
Speaker 2: you back home? Tell us all about.
Speaker 1: Ity scared her? Was it fine?
Speaker 4: Malcorn?
Speaker 5: Do you need to ride?
Speaker 6: Do you need to ride? Do you need to ride?
Speaker 6: Do you need to ride?
Speaker 5: Do you need to ride? Do you need to ride?
Speaker 4: Ride with Karen and Chris? Welcome to Do you need
Speaker 4: a ride? This is Chris.
Speaker 5: Fairbanks and this is Karen Kilgareth.
Speaker 4: I'm adjusting your sound. I'm giving you a little more volume.
Speaker 4: And as I do that, I am also talking into
Speaker 4: my mic to adjust my volume as well.
Speaker 5: Now, how does my volume sound comparatively compared to when
Speaker 5: we started?
Speaker 4: I appreciate that sample, and I also appreciate that it
Speaker 4: was a longer sentence for me to gauge in the answer.
Speaker 4: Is it sounds terrific?
Speaker 5: Well, that's awesome. I didn't take a very deep breath
Speaker 5: at the beginning of the sentence, so I really ran
Speaker 5: out by the time I got to me.
Speaker 4: One of the first things I learned in broadcast radio
Speaker 4: is that that initial breath is so important at the
Speaker 4: beginning of the show because oftentimes that is the one
Speaker 4: I use for entire sentences that follow in that it's
Speaker 4: multiple sentences that really have no end, like this one.
Speaker 1: Just on and on phrases.
Speaker 5: They call it the breath of life, and really you're
Speaker 5: supposed to fill up your entire abdomen and diaphragm, that's
Speaker 5: two different compartments and really keep that air in there
Speaker 5: and then just let it out, piece by piece, word
Speaker 5: by word, really stretch it out over the words. Your
Speaker 5: voice gets lower as you do so.
Speaker 4: And one of the main things they teach at the
Speaker 4: broadcast Academy is the opposite of that breath of life
Speaker 4: is dead air, which is bad radio, right, something my
Speaker 4: dad taught me earlier on.
Speaker 1: Earlier on not talking is not good radio.
Speaker 4: It's actually my dad used silence quite a bit, much
Speaker 4: like your your tigs or your Todd Berry's use silence
Speaker 4: to help drive a joke home. Something I've learned from them.
Speaker 4: My dad often when he did radio, he'd play a
Speaker 4: song and and and then not say anything.
Speaker 5: For about a minute, just to freak people out.
Speaker 4: He's very much enjoyed doing that. That was let's see
Speaker 4: here guests get Bartoe, Yeah, let me check that is
Speaker 4: who it was. And then he'd I don't know, I
Speaker 4: haven't let he's got My dad did radio for a
Speaker 4: number of years and then but all of the samples
Speaker 4: of it were on these giant reels, but he had
Speaker 4: them transferred and I need to sit down and listen
Speaker 4: to them.
Speaker 5: But he had them transferred to vhs. Yes, so it's
Speaker 5: a real pain transferred.
Speaker 4: To eight track cassettes.
Speaker 5: Now, can I just make a comment that right now
Speaker 5: we are driving, I would say northwest, is my guess,
Speaker 5: and we set, the sun is setting, it is, it's
Speaker 5: probably almost set. But the sky is a bright blue
Speaker 5: with some peachy yellow clouds.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's mom is mom?
Speaker 5: I think is a more purple where we're more looking
Speaker 5: at a kumquat.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, Well, if you notice in the distance is
Speaker 4: kind of purple grayish, that's what I that's Oh.
Speaker 5: You were talking horizon top?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I see. Then what's these clouds? Hair affected by
Speaker 4: the sun can only be described as peach tangerine.
Speaker 5: They're the mambo tropical flavor, I believe, is what they
Speaker 5: call it in the meteorologist department.
Speaker 4: Yeah, mambo number five.
Speaker 5: This is mombo number five over here. That's why no
Speaker 5: one wants to look at it or listen to it.
Speaker 5: But it actually looks very Uh. This happens a lot
Speaker 5: in la You'll be in your house, say with a
Speaker 5: moderate clinical depression. Sure, you realize you haven't left in
Speaker 5: four days. You walk outside around four forty and the
Speaker 5: it is completely golden hour the sky. The looks like
Speaker 5: a wonderful independent film you'd see at the arc light. Sure,
Speaker 5: it's just gorgeous outside. All of a sudden, it lasts
Speaker 5: that way for seven minutes and a minute's fucking gone,
Speaker 5: like it was never there.
Speaker 4: That's why. That's why it's special. That's why sunsets. People
Speaker 4: get very excited about them and take photos because.
Speaker 5: They know they're going to end. But why don't people
Speaker 5: understand that.
Speaker 4: So is life right? Why don't you take Yeah, take more.
Speaker 5: Selfies, Take him at night, take him in the morning.
Speaker 5: All of this is about to wrap up everybody.
Speaker 4: I think that I've been thinking that a lot lately.
Speaker 4: I don't think that people freaked out more about the
Speaker 4: false alarm in Hawaii.
Speaker 5: You don't think people forget like enough.
Speaker 4: You mean, yeah, why why First of all, why aren't
Speaker 4: we talking about why not happened? More? It was like
Speaker 4: I just saw one article that was like, yeah, some
Speaker 4: guy was changing shifts and which actually like bumped a button.
Speaker 4: The fact that there is a button and it's a
Speaker 4: new at well what Yeah, I think that there are
Speaker 4: new they're working with a new system because everyone knows
Speaker 4: that we very realistically might need to notify everyone.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I don't think the new system includes all caps.
Speaker 5: This is not a joke, like that was insane. But
Speaker 5: do you know that our friend Kurt Bramler, who we're
Speaker 5: just talking about, he had a theory that he tweeted out.
Speaker 5: He said he believed that there was a deep cover
Speaker 5: Chinese spy that was on an American submarine who pressed
Speaker 5: the nuclear launch button sent sent.
Speaker 1: Missiles toward Hawaii.
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 5: Then the Air Force came in right in time. I
Speaker 5: guess if it was a submarine, it wouldn't then go
Speaker 5: to the air But his point was, somebody hit the
Speaker 5: button that was a spy, the American I guess air
Speaker 5: Force knocked the nuclear missile out of the sky right
Speaker 5: then they had to pretend like it was all a mistake,
Speaker 5: but it actually almost happened.
Speaker 4: Okay, I really thought, and have been thinking, that it
Speaker 4: was just a button that at the accidentally pushed, like
Speaker 4: I believe that, I believed a night shift janitor was
Speaker 4: a lonely guy dancing with his mop in the end
Speaker 4: of the broom handle hit the button, and then luckily
Speaker 4: next to that button was a cancel button.
Speaker 5: That's right, but it didn't come for what wasn't it
Speaker 5: twenty minutes or something?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 5: The people in Hawaii thought they were fucking about to die.
Speaker 4: And my ext friend's parents lived there, and they called
Speaker 4: her crying and said, I guess we're calling to let
Speaker 4: you know a missile is coming at us, and they
Speaker 4: freaked out and cried over the phone. And then minutes later,
Speaker 4: never mind, we just got another Amber alert.
Speaker 1: That says we're going to live very uncool.
Speaker 4: And yeah, I just can't believe we aren't talking about
Speaker 4: that more. But when you hear news like that, my inner, well,
Speaker 4: fuck it kind of is triggered more than I've been
Speaker 4: giving it credit for, because I've kind of not been
Speaker 4: caring about life lately. Yes, well it's not that I'm
Speaker 4: being reckless.
Speaker 1: No, but I am right there with you.
Speaker 5: It's very difficult to take the thing seriously that one
Speaker 5: used to take seriously because there's this constant, strange, invisible
Speaker 5: threat and people talk about it. But I think people
Speaker 5: get people are so exhausted from constant alarm, which is
Speaker 5: what we all live in now, rage and alarm, right,
Speaker 5: that like, I think that's just like, oh, yeah, it happened.
Speaker 5: Because nobody works in the government. Everyone resigned, you know,
Speaker 5: there's these lunatics that are in charge, and everything's fucked.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we don't really know what's actually happening, and
Speaker 4: so that just makes me, it turns out sleepy. I
Speaker 4: did not know that that. When you're a kid and
Speaker 4: you're watching the movie Red Dawn, you start to think
Speaker 4: that's inner ass kicker, But no, inside me is a
Speaker 4: man who just really is appreciating his his new mattress. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I hate that. I knew I was not a hero,
Speaker 4: just because the way I react, Like when I accidentally
Speaker 4: turn on the garbage disposal and I think it's a
Speaker 4: light switch and I scream. I know that I'm not
Speaker 4: what the hero everyone's looking for because of how I
Speaker 4: react to certain noises and fireworks. I plug my ears
Speaker 4: and I kind of hunch.
Speaker 5: Over yet, but then get a couple of beers.
Speaker 4: In you, I'm ready to fight.
Speaker 1: You'll fight any lady security guards.
Speaker 4: So what I've been doing in preparation for our impending
Speaker 4: dum and, I've just been drinking a lot good because
Speaker 4: I know that's the warrior you need, is a drunken warrior.
Speaker 5: Well, I have been in preparation for the airstrike. I've
Speaker 5: been smoking a lot of pot lately, in a way
Speaker 5: where I'm like, this is only bad.
Speaker 1: It's not fun.
Speaker 5: It's just it feels like I'm like an opiate addictor it.
Speaker 4: Is the best version opiate. Opium is the worst. I
Speaker 4: think marijuana is the best version of getting inebriated. I
Speaker 4: think you're doing.
Speaker 1: Fine, thank you.
Speaker 4: It's better than booze.
Speaker 5: It's better than booze, except for I did sprain my
Speaker 5: ankle walking my dog, which didn't need to happen because
Speaker 5: I usually am good with walking on the sideway.
Speaker 4: I think you broke your ankle because you were high
Speaker 4: on the weed.
Speaker 5: Yes, well, I mean no, not not solely. But my
Speaker 5: friend who I was with goes, oh did they redo
Speaker 5: that house? And so I looked over my shoulder and
Speaker 5: was answering him while still walking forward. All right, that
Speaker 5: I should know I can't handle no matter.
Speaker 1: That's just not me.
Speaker 4: Walking while looking the other way.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like it. It's a perfume commercial, like walking the
Speaker 5: dog in one arms this way in your leg. But
Speaker 5: then you're like they're redoing it, and then of course
Speaker 5: I immediately just fall down like a child.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't see that in the commercial. Usually the
Speaker 4: dog's leash gets tangled by another handsome man's dog's leash.
Speaker 5: That's right, Yeah, that's no. There's no Garney fruity commercial coming.
Speaker 5: When you're on the ground licking cement.
Speaker 4: Who cares how soft your hair is when it's bouncing
Speaker 4: off a curb.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was very that. And then, as I showed
Speaker 5: you already, with some kitchen scissors that came within the
Speaker 5: butcher block with all the fancy knives, I was cutting
Speaker 5: something this morning I can't remember, and just basically lopped
Speaker 5: the outside I would say quarter of my pinky.
Speaker 4: Off, I would I would just go ahead and classify
Speaker 4: that as the tip of your finger.
Speaker 5: I cut the tip of my pinky off, So I am.
Speaker 5: I think it's like the saddest, slowest suicide.
Speaker 4: Just pe oh, fingertips. We all know, cutting those off
Speaker 4: one by one. It's the slowest weight handed it really is.
Speaker 5: Because there's a lot of bleeding. Yeah, but you won't
Speaker 5: bleed out entirely, not with one. No, you have to
Speaker 5: keep going.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna when's your next birthday?
Speaker 1: It's in May.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get you.
Speaker 5: Thimbles just for walking around.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just as reminders not to snip andy snip the
Speaker 4: old falangy tip. Oh. I well, maybe marijuana will help
Speaker 4: with the obtain You got the CBD CBGB oiled.
Speaker 1: Yes, thank god for that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I wonder if we should talk about
Speaker 5: us doing We actually did an event together. We didn't
Speaker 5: do an event, but we went to a thing together, right,
Speaker 5: But that was.
Speaker 4: One of the last times I got dressed up and
Speaker 4: put on some perfume. And yes, oh, look at the
Speaker 4: little karate kids. Yes, that's pretty cute, punch. Look at them.
Speaker 5: There's just as many girls as there are boys in there.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. And then one boy's on his phone I love,
Speaker 4: And one boy is like picking his nose in the mirror,
Speaker 4: but his nose's touching the mirrors because he didn't want
Speaker 4: anyone and he just date it. No, Yeah, what karate
Speaker 4: move is that if I can see you, certainly your
Speaker 4: sense can see you.
Speaker 5: This is the second time you've seen a guy pick
Speaker 5: a booger and eat it on this podcast.
Speaker 4: It's I see that all the time. I'm almost like
Speaker 4: on booger patrol. Like this guy crossing the street the
Speaker 4: other day, handsome guy's shirt off going towards the beach.
Speaker 4: Everything he's done in the last few years, he's been
Speaker 4: conscious of the way he looks. But crowded intersection picked it.
Speaker 4: I'm like with my friend, Look, that guy's picking his nose.
Speaker 4: He's got a book around and then he fucking ate it.
Speaker 4: It's a grown man, a grown athletic, handsome man.
Speaker 5: I find it eaten books so disgusting.
Speaker 4: It's the worst. I mean, you can't do that.
Speaker 1: You can't do it.
Speaker 5: It's so weird.
Speaker 4: So we went to this, uh this, Yeah, we went
Speaker 4: to a Hollywood premiere for corporate. I don't believe I've
Speaker 4: been cut out of it yet.
Speaker 1: Well he never knows.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there is a moment, and I've been told it's
Speaker 4: a good moment. I did here today that I'm cut
Speaker 4: out of the crashing. That is fine. It was a
Speaker 4: nice paid vacation for the best. I appreciate that they
Speaker 4: asked me to show up and uh, but this I
Speaker 4: do believe I am in the show corporate. Yes, I've
Speaker 4: been told that they liked it and then maybe Mike,
Speaker 4: my character will come back next season. Did I tell
Speaker 4: you that that's good?
Speaker 1: Oh that's great?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, I have a little another cameo.
Speaker 1: You should be in that office.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that'd be fun. Maybe I'll just call it. Should
Speaker 4: just ask, hey, guys, can I be in the office more?
Speaker 4: Can I just show up for insurance purposes?
Speaker 1: Just kind of sit around a little bit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, get get some sag, some sag hours.
Speaker 1: Look at skateboarders.
Speaker 5: Yay, people, are you to do that?
Speaker 4: We'd have stuff to talk about. Me and those fourteen
Speaker 4: year olds.
Speaker 5: Skateboard, skateboard. I love him. So this premiere was downtown
Speaker 5: in a fancy high rise. Our guest from two weeks ago,
Speaker 5: Matt Ingebrutson was It's his show with his partner Jake
Speaker 5: Wiseman and Pat Bishop, who is the director. Very talented
Speaker 5: Pat Bishop, yeah and kind good guy. Now he has
Speaker 5: long hair so he looks like a seventies author in Manhattan.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he does have book jacket hair.
Speaker 5: He has book jacket hair from the seventies. Yeah, And
Speaker 5: we met at this place downtown. I don't know why
Speaker 5: anyone does anything downtown.
Speaker 4: It was very difficult. It was difficult to even meet.
Speaker 4: We basically met at the front security gate.
Speaker 5: Forty minutes after we planned to meet because I can't
Speaker 5: be on time, and I become like those there's so
Speaker 5: much street work construction down there. The place you think
Speaker 5: you're supposed to turn it isn't there anymore.
Speaker 4: It doesn't exist.
Speaker 5: And when that happens, I start getting weird panicky tunnel vision,
Speaker 5: where like if I can't see it, then I'm just like,
Speaker 5: I don't know what to do. I'm just going to
Speaker 5: turn here. Like I just start getting real buck wild
Speaker 5: because I don't know what to fucking do. So I
Speaker 5: panic wild, I go buck wild.
Speaker 4: Oh God, that just I just think of a Southern
Speaker 4: guy on water skis. I don't but.
Speaker 1: Everyone's me in this lexus.
Speaker 4: Everyone has a different version of buck wow.
Speaker 1: Taken left like a fucking nut.
Speaker 4: You know, buck wow.
Speaker 5: I'm going buck wold.
Speaker 4: Uh, that's phrase.
Speaker 5: And we made it.
Speaker 4: We made it there, we did make it. And then
Speaker 4: I you know, I got everyone felt a little anxious.
Speaker 4: Every conversation I had was people like, I'm uncomfortable being
Speaker 4: I feel like everyone's going through the same thing. They
Speaker 4: haven't been socializing in groups and uh. And then I
Speaker 4: just started to get set. I'll be damned if I
Speaker 4: wasn't sick for a number.
Speaker 5: Of days, a fever, body achey left early, having made
Speaker 5: all this effort. Ye gone downtown.
Speaker 4: I did stop and shove some food in my mouth.
Speaker 4: First I found that there was I didn't did you
Speaker 4: know there's a party downstairs? They had a slide where
Speaker 4: you can go outside the building on a clear slide
Speaker 4: for a moment. No, I didn't want to wait for that.
Speaker 4: But I went down and there was food, and so
Speaker 4: I just want to admit to you I did hang
Speaker 4: out a little bit neat and I got out.
Speaker 5: Of there good. No, I think that's for the best, because.
Speaker 4: You know, there's free drinks. That's dangerous for me.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Oh, and well, everybody did seem a bit keyed up.
Speaker 5: I think it was like people were excited for those guys. Yes,
Speaker 5: it was a fancy place. Everyone had a kind of
Speaker 5: you know, there was a lot of very presentational selfie taking. Yes, yes,
Speaker 5: that kind of it was that kind of I do
Speaker 5: regret that.
Speaker 4: I didn't take one picture on the on the little
Speaker 4: I want to say, the boardwalk. That isn't what it
Speaker 4: is unless it was red and hard. But there we go.
Speaker 1: Step repeat, Yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Have the little red card the what do you call that?
Speaker 4: It's a little backdrop.
Speaker 5: It's called a step.
Speaker 4: It just just it is a step and repeat. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's terrific because that's what people do, that's right. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's it's called a step and repeat by by photographers, right,
Speaker 4: because you take a picture that's your step, and then
Speaker 4: you repeat when there's a new person.
Speaker 5: Yes, perhaps if you're a person, if.
Speaker 4: You're an actor, you wouldn't step and then repeat and
Speaker 4: then get on it again. So that's clearly a photographer phrase.
Speaker 5: Yes, I would imagine.
Speaker 4: Or the media, the media outlets.
Speaker 5: Is it's fake news, is what it is.
Speaker 4: Goddamn right, Keny I I am. I had a very
Speaker 4: good time.
Speaker 1: It was fun.
Speaker 5: There was lots of them. I got to talk to
Speaker 5: my friend Jered Grody, who I adore never gets to see.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jared, he's great, And he asked me, He's like,
Speaker 4: what have you been doing with your artwork lately, and
Speaker 4: I was like, well, that's thanks for asking about that,
Speaker 4: because I'm excited about I got a regular page in
Speaker 4: the next couple issues of Mad magazines. I get a
Speaker 4: draw and write these. I want them to be kind
Speaker 4: of firesidey, just a joke, but not with humans, not
Speaker 4: with animals.
Speaker 5: That's a job you just got.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Oh that's great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it'll be hopefully a regular thing. Or I'm in
Speaker 4: the first couple issues of this new relaunching of Mad magazine.
Speaker 5: That's so exciting.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that'll be. And so I'm glad I had an
Speaker 4: answer for him because it was a specific thing to
Speaker 4: ask about. And then I it cheered me up to
Speaker 4: be like, hey, thanks for asking about that. That's the
Speaker 4: thing I can think about.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And he's just a good dude.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's good. He has good taste in comedy, he
Speaker 5: knows his stuff, he's fun to talk to.
Speaker 4: Yep.
Speaker 5: And then I think I just got that I am consistently,
Speaker 5: aside from people who run network, I'm the oldest person
Speaker 5: in the room always, and I can't take it anymore.
Speaker 5: It's I used to be the youngest.
Speaker 4: That's not true because a lot of the actors there
Speaker 4: had their parents there.
Speaker 5: I can't be in that fucking in that group anymore
Speaker 5: where I just I feel like I am hanging out
Speaker 5: at high schools.
Speaker 4: It's starting to affect me too. If there isn't. Yeah,
Speaker 4: if I am the oldest, I do know, I very
Speaker 4: much notice it. If I'm not, I don't notice at all.
Speaker 4: I'm just one of the kids. But if I am
Speaker 4: the oldest person there, I do. But you know what,
Speaker 4: it's just, it all.
Speaker 5: Ends for everyone, right, it really does, and you have
Speaker 5: to cop to when it is ending. When when it
Speaker 5: has ended, it's a.
Speaker 4: Good idea, right I suppose, But.
Speaker 5: I mean, I guess my thing is, I'm no longer interested.
Speaker 5: I'm in a bad social position. I am not interested
Speaker 5: in making small talk with people. I kind of don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't care, I don't.
Speaker 4: But sometimes aren't you pleasantly surprised when it goes well
Speaker 4: and you're like, okay, that's why people. Usually it doesn't
Speaker 4: go well, and usually it's like that was a lot
Speaker 4: of energy and for no reason. But every once in
Speaker 4: a while, even if it's on a plane next to
Speaker 4: a stranger, and that kind of small talk pays off
Speaker 4: and is there's some insight or whatever. Don't I keep hoping.
Speaker 4: Usually it isn't like you said, but every once in
Speaker 4: a while it pays off.
Speaker 5: It does in I find in like uber driver situations,
Speaker 5: it always pays off. There's certainly sometimes there's a waiter
Speaker 5: that you can have a good conversation with, right, But
Speaker 5: I'm talking about like when talking about commoners get together
Speaker 5: and get nervous in public and think that that this
Speaker 5: party is going to be very much.
Speaker 4: Yep, it was very much that. More than more than
Speaker 4: most parties like this. It was everyone a little ill
Speaker 4: at ease and trying in a way that wasn't natural, right,
Speaker 4: And we were also packed into a small area, So
Speaker 4: you're right, that is it is different.
Speaker 5: But there was a fun part. Here's what I love.
Speaker 5: I made you promise that we would talk to each
Speaker 5: other the whole time, and then you wouldn't walk away,
Speaker 5: And then I think I walked away from you almost
Speaker 5: immediately after we got in here.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's yeah, it's because you know, it's it's almost
Speaker 4: like in order to do that, you have to make
Speaker 4: a conscious effort to not deal with all those people
Speaker 4: that are walking up to you. Yes, it's like, oh,
Speaker 4: I quickly realized that plan was not going to wear
Speaker 4: it because people at all are coming up and going, Hi,
Speaker 4: I need you right now to interact with and it's like, well,
Speaker 4: there goes our plan.
Speaker 5: There shouldn't be a plan in place to not talk about.
Speaker 4: Right right ever, especially en route to a party.
Speaker 5: Now, there's a lot of social issues that I have
Speaker 5: that I feel I'm working out at too late a date.
Speaker 1: These are leftover.
Speaker 5: I should have worked that he's out in my twenties
Speaker 5: when I was blackout drunk, but I didn't know what
Speaker 5: was happening, and so instead I'm working them out now
Speaker 5: when I don't even want to be there at the
Speaker 5: first place.
Speaker 4: I worked out some things. The other night, my roommate
Speaker 4: had a birthday party and he got a hotel in
Speaker 4: Santa Monica and that has like a rooftop situation, like
Speaker 4: it's kind of a cool affordable hotel right on the beach.
Speaker 4: And he got like a sweet and some of our
Speaker 4: mutual pals all went there and we got some barbecue,
Speaker 4: and I was like, well, tomorrow I have this a show,
Speaker 4: a stand up taping thing for this. I don't have
Speaker 4: all the details on that, but I had to do
Speaker 4: stand up the next day. Okay for this Native American thing,
Speaker 4: and I have enough Native although the blood work, I
Speaker 4: didn't show them any proof. But I was on the
Speaker 4: show because I'm part of the Native, which I felt
Speaker 4: uncomfortable with because look at me, I'm very white and yes,
Speaker 4: my eyes are blue. And I did at this party,
Speaker 4: you know I don't. I'm not proud. Why are you
Speaker 4: honk it?
Speaker 5: Who's honking?
Speaker 4: That guy created his own lane and that person is
Speaker 4: terrible at driving. I did acid. I did a LSD.
Speaker 4: It was a smarty What is more innocent than a
Speaker 4: smarty candy? The last time I did it was fourth July.
Speaker 4: It was in it. It was dripped onto an oreo.
Speaker 4: I'm a big fan of the the Beatles and that
Speaker 4: the bus the electric you know I and I like
Speaker 4: the electric the while you're on the drugs. I like
Speaker 4: the way it helps you sort through your problems and
Speaker 4: realize they don't matter. And I don't do a lot
Speaker 4: of drugs that do that. And while doing it, and man,
Speaker 4: I was funny on them and we were all laughing
Speaker 4: and telling stories and we had a great time. But
Speaker 4: then I knew to call it quits around midnight, and
Speaker 4: because I had to wake up the next day to
Speaker 4: do stand up. Acid does not go to sleep well
Speaker 4: in my and I'm kind of embarrassed I'm talking about this,
Speaker 4: but yeah, I just I all night, I was away everything.
Speaker 4: When I close my eyes, it was just a puzzle
Speaker 4: that cannot be solved. Yep, numbers, lining up shapes, tetris
Speaker 4: type things, different colors, trying to mix them and match
Speaker 4: other colors. Algebra equations that I haven't even addressed for
Speaker 4: many years, all coming back in if math were color,
Speaker 4: That's that's what happened. Then I'd open my eyes and
Speaker 4: I'm like, it's just me laying in bed. Everything's normal.
Speaker 4: Why can't I sleep? I need to sleep. And this
Speaker 4: taping wasn't until for the next day, but I had
Speaker 4: to go to San Bernardino, and I was already nervous
Speaker 4: about it. Like I said, I'm not Native American enough
Speaker 4: to be on the show, and every other comic was
Speaker 4: one hundred percent Native American, all women, and I just
Speaker 4: felt like I didn't belong there, and I was expressing
Speaker 4: my anxiety about it. I'm like, I don't know, I
Speaker 4: don't really have material about this, and in my head
Speaker 4: I knew that also I just also was on acid.
Speaker 4: So I and I think it's for PBS. I don't
Speaker 4: earn that's potentially, but they want it to be it's
Speaker 4: an all stand up showcase. I apologize to Graham Elwood
Speaker 4: who asked me to do it. I feel like it
Speaker 4: didn't do a very good job. I'm not. I don't
Speaker 4: think it was once I was there a man, tonight's
Speaker 4: over up, but I I didn't address like the audience.
Speaker 4: They It was just as I suspected when I came
Speaker 4: out there, like what's up with this white guy? And
Speaker 4: then I was like, hey, I know what you're thinking,
Speaker 4: what's up with this white guy? All of a sudden,
Speaker 4: And then that was kind of it was. It was
Speaker 4: I did not do well. I did not do well
Speaker 4: at stand up and yeah, so there was I think
Speaker 4: a lesson to be learned.
Speaker 5: Well, it makes me think of a couple of nights
Speaker 5: where I've done Like if you get booked at the
Speaker 5: improv and then afterwards find out that it's like Loco
Speaker 5: Tuesdays or whatever. Yeah, like that used to happen every
Speaker 5: once in a while, and then you'd just be on
Speaker 5: a show where the majority of people that came were
Speaker 5: there because they thought they were going to just have
Speaker 5: like a communal experience with people like them, and so
Speaker 5: they Yeah, they're not looking to like entertain anything outside
Speaker 5: of that. And they're a comedy audience, not not the
Speaker 5: best in being like, no, no, let's hear them out
Speaker 5: and be open mind right, like they never do that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, And then add to that that to be on
Speaker 4: the show, it's been established that you are part native
Speaker 4: like that, that you are part like it's if you
Speaker 4: did one of those shows. And then part of it
Speaker 4: was also that some blood work had been done and
Speaker 4: I so now I want to do that blood work
Speaker 4: just so I can get it straight. Because everyone in
Speaker 4: my family's dead. There's no one to even ask. I
Speaker 4: guess I'll just go on ancestry dot com just.
Speaker 5: To or twenty three and meters is the DNA one
Speaker 5: where they tell you, Yeah, that's the one where you
Speaker 5: send them your blood and they send you back what
Speaker 5: you are percentage wise.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I need to do that. I've never cared really don't.
Speaker 4: I don't know, pride in any race or any you know,
Speaker 4: like a dad never cared about that. Do you care
Speaker 4: about that? I don't care how much I rich.
Speaker 5: Or well my family's very into it only because there
Speaker 5: it's very kind of cut and dried, Like my grandparents
Speaker 5: are from Ireland, so that side of my family is
Speaker 5: very it's all very eron Gobra and all that because
Speaker 5: of it. Aron go yeah, which means Ireland Forever.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, I remember. It just took me a.
Speaker 1: Moment, but you know that.
Speaker 5: So I feel like it was much more popular in
Speaker 5: the eighties. But like certain families, if you're if you've
Speaker 5: got a pretty strong singular country you're from, they really
Speaker 5: they love to hang a flag.
Speaker 4: And I was totally Irish until we found out my
Speaker 4: grandpa maybe was adopted. Oh and we don't, like I said,
Speaker 4: there's no one to ask. Everyone's dead.
Speaker 5: This is the perfect time to drop in our twenty
Speaker 5: three and meter commercial. Yes, yes, someone do that make
Speaker 5: that deal?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it would be perfect.
Speaker 5: I bet you if I got that done, I would
Speaker 5: find out that I'm in not as Irish as I
Speaker 5: think I am or brag to be.
Speaker 4: I am confident that the Native American thing would show up.
Speaker 7: Could you can feel it in your bones or just
Speaker 7: a childhood of going to the every funeral on in
Speaker 7: that town, in the government seat of the Flathead Nation.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: There's got to be a reason we were hanging. I
Speaker 4: don't think it just to pretend. But god, I wish
Speaker 4: I knew. I wish I knew more about this great
Speaker 4: grand You know, when you're someone's dead your whole life.
Speaker 4: But all the paintings he did were of Native American
Speaker 4: folks and oh wow, really amazing paintings.
Speaker 5: Well that's that's who you get it from.
Speaker 4: My mom's grandpa was yeah, and I mean my dad.
Speaker 4: I think it's all there's art all over the place
Speaker 4: that it is. You're right, or my desire to want
Speaker 4: to draw and paint, I think.
Speaker 1: Came from that and seeing people do it.
Speaker 4: Gotta do it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, When you see people do it, it makes
Speaker 5: it seem pos like you don't question, whereas I no
Speaker 5: one in my family ever drew.
Speaker 1: So when when it came to drawing, I was.
Speaker 5: Like, this is impossible, right, like it just I didn't
Speaker 5: understand how it was ever done. And my favorite thing
Speaker 5: in the world is, you know when they make videos,
Speaker 5: everyone swallow be like this is how this animator draws
Speaker 5: the girl from Frozen or whatever, and you just watch
Speaker 5: a pen so will draw it. That's my favorite thing
Speaker 5: to watch watching a person draw something.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that too. Yeah, that's the time lapse
Speaker 4: from nothing. H I tried. That's why I got excited
Speaker 4: about Vine when it first came out, because it is
Speaker 4: a way to like, you know, take a quick shot
Speaker 4: and then it just creates an animation. So I was
Speaker 4: trying to do all these stop motion but it's really hard.
Speaker 4: You need like something, you need a way to hold
Speaker 4: a camera steady above a drawing, which I don't have.
Speaker 4: That kind of tripod, Yeah you have.
Speaker 1: They sell them though, like those little ones you can
Speaker 1: clip in.
Speaker 4: Maybe I should start doing that, you should?
Speaker 5: It would be I would love it, simp. I would
Speaker 5: love it, and then I would try to get other
Speaker 5: people to love it with me.
Speaker 4: And when I watch those things there is it's soothing.
Speaker 4: It is soothing.
Speaker 5: Oh yes, started should we just go off?
Speaker 4: Sure?
Speaker 5: What if this? What if you started doing this thing
Speaker 5: on like Twitter or whatever, where you someone sends in
Speaker 5: a request like I want to watch you draw a
Speaker 5: little pig eating a thing of grapes right right, and
Speaker 5: then that's the thing and then you're just like, well,
Speaker 5: this is the request for today, and then you just
Speaker 5: do it real like it always takes one minute or whatever.
Speaker 4: And how do I make money? I buy a parth
Speaker 4: or put what is it?
Speaker 5: What's the the parthenon? You buy the parthenon?
Speaker 4: You know, I'm the page patriot Patreon you could do Patreon?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, then you have to make those videos all
Speaker 7: the time, right, that's a commitment.
Speaker 5: Maybe in the same way that we got people to
Speaker 5: send you money for our T shirts some kind of
Speaker 5: trick like how you did that?
Speaker 4: Oh man, that was not easy.
Speaker 1: No, real pain, wasn't it.
Speaker 4: Well it's and and I have yeah they're all gone.
Speaker 5: Oh sorry sorry, but but yeah, it was.
Speaker 4: It was hard to Uh, it was just because a
Speaker 4: lot of someone had ask about it on Twitter and
Speaker 4: then it's like, well, okay, how do I get them
Speaker 4: my PayPal and or vimy or Venmo account and then okay,
Speaker 4: and so let me know when you've paid and then
Speaker 4: I'll So basically I was just looking at my PayPal
Speaker 4: and Venmo and when someone gave me money, that's when
Speaker 4: I would then cross reference try and find the original
Speaker 4: email and or Facebook and or Twitter message to find
Speaker 4: their address if they had given them and the size
Speaker 4: because I had not all that information was It was
Speaker 4: just a lot of cross referencing, like I'm not a
Speaker 4: great bookkeeper.
Speaker 5: That sounds like the hardest way you could possibly do.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yeah, I don't know the easiest way. I
Speaker 4: think happened to some kind of a store set up.
Speaker 4: But then they put it in envelopes, and then I
Speaker 4: worry about the envelopes, and then they get sent back
Speaker 4: to me because the zip code wasn't correct. No, a
Speaker 4: lot of that happened.
Speaker 5: You cut me out of this entirely. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 5: It would help you know, you helped you.
Speaker 4: You did help me. You had the shirts printed. Oh
Speaker 4: that's true, and I didn't want to bother you with
Speaker 4: anything more than that.
Speaker 5: But uh well, thank god, but thank you.
Speaker 4: People were I think people were happy.
Speaker 5: Though, okay, good, well, I mean we were getting lots
Speaker 5: of fun tweets. Here's the thing.
Speaker 4: If anyone's listening, though, and you paid for a shirt
Speaker 4: and did not receive them, oh shit, you email me
Speaker 4: to me at Chris Fairbanks dot com and I will
Speaker 4: promptly apologize.
Speaker 5: Sorry that twenty dollars is gone.
Speaker 4: But yeah, well, we'll make more shirts, but figure out
Speaker 4: an easier way to send them.
Speaker 5: I wonder if the place where we made the shirts
Speaker 5: would take over the sending if we if they got
Speaker 5: a cut or something, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: Because it's a good shirt.
Speaker 5: Man. When people send us pictures wearing those shirts, it
Speaker 5: is I find it delightful how awesome those shirts turned out.
Speaker 4: Yep, the art looks great on someone's chest. It's great
Speaker 4: all everyone's chest.
Speaker 5: Some a young lady pointed out that it does when
Speaker 5: the girls where the shirt might seem slightly dirty.
Speaker 4: Oh really, Oh because there's a little little heads on
Speaker 4: your nips and it's.
Speaker 1: Do you need to ride all right?
Speaker 5: Which is suggest I never thought of it as suggestive, Yeah,
Speaker 5: until someone sent us a tweet about it, and then
Speaker 5: I was like, well, I guess I think that's true
Speaker 5: for everything if you think about it.
Speaker 4: Right right, Yeah, it's uh. Plus, no one really rides
Speaker 4: on your boobs, that's really so right away they'd be like, well,
Speaker 4: I mean, if it was an arrow going like a
Speaker 4: nime with stupid arrow pointing down, do.
Speaker 5: You need to ride down there to your privates?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Do you need to ride where it makes the most
Speaker 5: sense arrow dynamically?
Speaker 4: And I've always wanted I mean, this is the jokeiest
Speaker 4: tattoo ever. We got a green light if I I'm
Speaker 4: was stupid tattoo on my back with an arrow pointing
Speaker 4: down to my butt track. I always thought that would
Speaker 4: be very funny, calling your butthole stupid. Ah.
Speaker 5: My friend Don Frasier always wanted threatened that she was
Speaker 5: always going to get a tattoo of a little tiny
Speaker 5: guy on her inner thigh, pointing up saying this is.
Speaker 1: Where the fund's at.
Speaker 5: She would talk about it. It was like her running
Speaker 5: joke that she was like, I made that appointment, I'm
Speaker 5: gonna get that tattoo.
Speaker 1: Oh I forgot I have to get my tattoo.
Speaker 4: But then it is a funny conversationally. But there was
Speaker 4: one guy I remember he had. He'd always say, hey,
Speaker 4: you want to see my tattoo, and then he'd pull
Speaker 4: up his sleeve and it was of Airbay Village as
Speaker 4: the actor who played Tattoo on Fantasy Island. And that
Speaker 4: got Yeah, that really didn't. I mean, I can see
Speaker 4: why he did it. It's maybe funny on paper, but
Speaker 4: it's just was the most obnoxious reveal.
Speaker 5: Well, also that reveal stopped being relevant in nineteen seventy nine.
Speaker 4: That maybe, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 5: That's the tough thing about the those topical jokes. Man,
Speaker 5: they don't last.
Speaker 4: Yeah, my lower back piece. It's all about Isaac from
Speaker 4: love Boat, just.
Speaker 5: Really saying, serve me up one that mustache?
Speaker 1: What stop it?
Speaker 4: You don't remember that episode? It was very popular.
Speaker 5: It was so closing, Isaac getting all over the place.
Speaker 4: You know, I met Isaac from love Boat. He was
Speaker 4: at the lot of people don't know Isaac love Boat.
Speaker 4: That's what I called him. I hope he wasn't offended.
Speaker 4: You don't identify by just this role you got once,
Speaker 4: but I'm gonna call you Isaac love Boat.
Speaker 1: That's his actual last name, his Christian last name.
Speaker 4: It's how he got the job and also how they
Speaker 4: named the show so perfect he was. I'm every year,
Speaker 4: no one knows or I've done that the last couple
Speaker 4: of years. I'm in the Fred Willard Santathon, which it's
Speaker 4: a pageant, a Christmas pageant.
Speaker 1: Is this true?
Speaker 4: Yes? And I played on Donald Trump Junior and Beth
Speaker 4: the Belt that's our junior. It's the same role. And uh,
Speaker 4: it was really enjoyable just because it was like a
Speaker 4: Christmas show. Where was it The ladies on it that
Speaker 4: were like from laughing, and there's a lot of That
Speaker 4: was the one thing where I'm like, okay, I'm the
Speaker 4: youngest person here, as opposed to being in a comedy party.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, maybe I should start going to Fred Willard events.
Speaker 5: It was it was great.
Speaker 4: I mean, he's the sweetest man. Uh you know, and
Speaker 4: it was like being in a play. It was like
Speaker 4: I was whistling backstage and I did not.
Speaker 1: Know you're not supposed to.
Speaker 4: Yeah. A woman from laughing said, that's curses the show.
Speaker 4: I'm say, I'm very sorry.
Speaker 5: Joanne Worley, No, it was not Joan Worley. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, I love Joan Worley.
Speaker 4: She's she's hard to get to know.
Speaker 5: She okay, joe Ane Morley. Obviously she's a lot of
Speaker 5: people know her from laughing. She also if you were
Speaker 5: a child of the seventies, she played Mother Nature and
Speaker 5: the margarine commercials.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, of course.
Speaker 5: So she's one of those people whose faces I've been
Speaker 5: seeing since I can think. I could think, like watching TV.
Speaker 4: I'm very convinced that she hated me.
Speaker 5: But she's got to be in her eighties now, yes,
Speaker 5: for her late seventies or eighties.
Speaker 4: Sure, so she's late eighties, I think.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so she well, that's amazing. She's still doing shows.
Speaker 5: So she When I was in college, a bunch of
Speaker 5: my friends, I was in the theater major, so I
Speaker 5: had a bunch of theater nerd friend.
Speaker 4: Sure, and wearing your black turtlenecks.
Speaker 5: Right and braze all over the place, snapping instead of clapping.
Speaker 4: Sure.
Speaker 5: But my friend Leva, my roommate, she got a job
Speaker 5: at the Music Circus for the summer. And that's the
Speaker 5: place where all the big basically it's the city wide musical.
Speaker 5: It's the Repertory Theater, so they do huge musicals there
Speaker 5: and really talented people and really big shows. So they
Speaker 5: had one year they were doing I can't remember what
Speaker 5: the musical was. I think it was Sound of Music,
Speaker 5: but I can't remember. And Paige O'Dell, who is the
Speaker 5: woman who voiced Bell from the original Beauty and the
Speaker 5: Beast Disney, she was the actress playing let's say it
Speaker 5: was Maria in this, but I can't remember if that
Speaker 5: was the musical. And Joanne Worley was also in the
Speaker 5: cast playing something. Yeah, that's the Joanne Wiry part is
Speaker 5: what makes me think it wasn't Sound of Music. But anyway, right,
Speaker 5: so apparently pedro Dell got nervous one night and locked herself.
Speaker 5: Or maybe they got mediocre reviews. I can't remember what
Speaker 5: the reason was.
Speaker 4: There was someone may have whistled backstage and then Joanne
Speaker 4: told her that she ruined the show. Yes, yeah, she
Speaker 4: may have locked herself in a closet. I felt like
Speaker 4: I wanted.
Speaker 5: To Okay, so you you understand, said pedro Dell was
Speaker 5: going through a real thing that you can relate to. Yes,
Speaker 5: and she locked herself in her dressing room. And Joanne Worley,
Speaker 5: my friend, witnessed this and then told us the story.
Speaker 5: And then we used to just say it to each
Speaker 5: other all the time. Joanne Worley stood outside pedro Dell's
Speaker 5: dressing room, going page page, It's Joanne answer the good
Speaker 5: page in that like crazy.
Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah, all of.
Speaker 1: That story is predicated.
Speaker 5: The success of it is predicated on you knowing what
Speaker 5: joe Anne Worley sounds like talks.
Speaker 4: So if you don't, it is yeah, she does have
Speaker 4: she was. She still sounds like that. It's just a classic.
Speaker 4: It's it's one of those classic performer voices, like how
Speaker 4: actors used to.
Speaker 5: Talk yes like this.
Speaker 4: And then someone like uh Marilon Brando comes along and
Speaker 4: he's like, what if I just talk like a person.
Speaker 4: They're like, wait, that's not yeah, hold on, that's not
Speaker 4: how actors talk.
Speaker 5: Wait a second, James Dan, we don't understand what it
Speaker 5: sounds like.
Speaker 4: You're just talking in real life.
Speaker 5: Sorry, it's too fast and it's kind of quiet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's weird. Yeah, but no, it was very
Speaker 4: It was very fun. It was cool to be involved
Speaker 4: with something like that.
Speaker 5: I'm going to go ahead and.
Speaker 4: Go back on my plan and turn the air back on.
Speaker 4: Then all of a sudden, I got clammy.
Speaker 5: Make it just a tiny bit less cold there.
Speaker 4: See, that's I was just looking for some insight. Look
Speaker 4: at these controls. This car is so high tech.
Speaker 5: I'm like the fucking pilot for the Blue Angels running
Speaker 5: this car.
Speaker 4: I but I didn't. Did you know? It's bad luck
Speaker 4: to whistle backstage when I'm nervous, I whistle? Yeah yeah,
Speaker 4: And I'm like, well, what's going to happen? What bad
Speaker 4: thing is going to happen to the show? We all
Speaker 4: know our lines.
Speaker 5: Do you want me to tell you what? The reason
Speaker 5: that is a what do you call it a superstition?
Speaker 5: Superstition is because it used to be that the way
Speaker 5: that they would quee pulleys and the guys that were
Speaker 5: up in the raft.
Speaker 1: Oh, it was a series of whistles.
Speaker 5: So if you whistled, it could make somebody like drop
Speaker 5: a sandbag to make a scenery thing go down down.
Speaker 4: You would think the day that the sandbags got automated
Speaker 4: and no longer went control about a human that the
Speaker 4: whole whistling thing. It's like, hey, guys, know the great
Speaker 4: part of this America's favorite pastime is back backstage whistling.
Speaker 5: It could be that whistling is one of the creepiest things.
Speaker 5: If you're not doing it, whistling is a bummer.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I suppose an old man got into the elevator with
Speaker 5: me the other day after I was down with therapy
Speaker 5: and immediately started whistling, and it was like a scene
Speaker 5: from a horror movie. He's very old and very suspicious,
Speaker 5: and he was whistling in a tiny box.
Speaker 4: If you're an old man whistling, it's usually because you're
Speaker 4: just masking very vivid World War II memories of your
Speaker 4: head's friends blowing off and hitting your uniform. No, my
Speaker 4: grandpa did a lot of whistling, and I know that
Speaker 4: it was just masking darkness.
Speaker 5: And error, just trying to get through that memory. Yeah,
Speaker 5: well that's awful.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I really think that he was. He whistled a lot,
Speaker 4: and it was when he was ill at ease. And
Speaker 4: it doesn't always just mean I'm happy and I'm walking
Speaker 4: in a park, No it doesn't.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I think there are things we can
Speaker 5: do in the theater.
Speaker 1: You also can't say Macbeth. Did you know that?
Speaker 4: Right? That's a thing too, That's a big one. Well,
Speaker 4: I knew that wouldn't come up organically for me unless
Speaker 4: I just wanted Joanne Warely to punch me in the face.
Speaker 5: She had been through it all, Chris, and she wasn't
Speaker 5: here to teach the know nothing how to be in
Speaker 5: the theater.
Speaker 4: One guy did fall back. It was a telephone and
Speaker 4: there was people at phones. I don't know if they
Speaker 4: were really answering them. I think that was just a
Speaker 4: stage gag. Okay, but this guy did fall back in
Speaker 4: his chair and hit his head, and maybe I had
Speaker 4: to do it with my whistling. I'm realizing that maybe
Speaker 4: that accident didn't need to happen. Oh he was okay,
Speaker 4: he's kind of sore, the next time there was.
Speaker 5: There was just no reason for him to fall though except.
Speaker 4: For no one. It was an unexplainable fall. Inexplicably he fell,
Speaker 4: and I realized now it's because I was whistling.
Speaker 5: Back, because he was up on one of those big
Speaker 5: telethon banner banister things where he's like he was the
Speaker 5: second he was.
Speaker 4: Sinner and for no reason at all. There was a
Speaker 4: rope underneath his foot connected to a sandbag. He rapped
Speaker 4: his zip right.
Speaker 1: And then he no, you cute him. You cuted him
Speaker 1: too soon.
Speaker 7: Oh oh shoot, I'm sorry, sir, sir uh.
Speaker 4: But anyway, last year Isaac from the Love Boat was
Speaker 4: on the program and he was a delightful man. I
Speaker 4: liked him a lot the end.
Speaker 5: Okay, Can I tell you that Isaac from the Love
Speaker 5: Boat is also in the James Brown documentary about the
Speaker 5: concert that he gave in South Central right when the
Speaker 5: like riots were how happening and in like I think
Speaker 5: it was nineteen seventy. It's a really amazing documentary.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 5: I watched it after I saw the thirty by thirty
Speaker 5: about oj That was so mind blowingly.
Speaker 1: I knew nothing.
Speaker 5: About the city I've lived in for twenty five years
Speaker 5: and the way this city has treated black people and
Speaker 5: the people of South Central and that documentary blew minds
Speaker 5: and then it led me to these other ones of
Speaker 5: like and these are all these other things that happened
Speaker 5: in that basically in the other half of the city
Speaker 5: that you don't go to if.
Speaker 1: You don't live on that side of town.
Speaker 4: One of the other more eye opening thinks was Anthony
Speaker 4: Bourdain one of his shows, No Reservations or whatever, where
Speaker 4: he hung out with this guy that was from Koreatown
Speaker 4: and his family owned a restaurant and now he does
Speaker 4: these food carts and stuff. But he talked about in
Speaker 4: Koreatown during the riots, everyone guarding their restaurants with guns,
Speaker 4: like Korean store owners with machine guns on the roofs
Speaker 4: because cops weren't going to that part of town, right,
Speaker 4: And I'm not sure why it was real. Yeah, there's
Speaker 4: a lot that was going on around.
Speaker 1: That.
Speaker 4: I mean, okay, wait, I'm perhaps confusing. There were there
Speaker 4: were riots during When did the beating of Rodney King
Speaker 4: happen in conjunction with the oj trial? Was it the
Speaker 4: same year?
Speaker 5: It was right around I think right before, And that's
Speaker 5: why people were when the when the verdict was announced,
Speaker 5: even though there were there were certain people who were like,
Speaker 5: how dare the he's guilty or whatever, but a lot
Speaker 5: of people were like thank god because they everyone was
Speaker 5: so afraid of the rioting, right, And it was because
Speaker 5: it had happened, the Rodney King beating. When that when
Speaker 5: that verdict came back and those people got off, when
Speaker 5: they had been videotaped beating the shit out of him,
Speaker 5: that's when people were just like, fuggin' it's on, right.
Speaker 1: But in the seventies it.
Speaker 4: Was within the saying they did almost overlap, right, Yes, yeah, okay,
Speaker 4: because I didn't want to.
Speaker 5: That offhand, and I could be wrong, but I believe
Speaker 5: Rodney King happened right before OJ. I think it was
Speaker 5: like because.
Speaker 4: It went and definitely affected the outcome. Those riots definitely
Speaker 4: affected the outcome of that trial.
Speaker 1: I believe so well.
Speaker 5: And it also just woke people up to this idea
Speaker 5: that like everyone going, well, he should just go to
Speaker 5: jail the end, And then it was that thing of
Speaker 5: like there have been these kinds of like him getting
Speaker 5: off is a get back, yeah for all this like
Speaker 5: injustice in the legal system and a bunch of white
Speaker 5: people who had never even thought about it before, going
Speaker 5: that's bullshit. And then it's like, then you watch this
Speaker 5: documentary that thirty by thirty where they start talking about
Speaker 5: these horrible riots and how insanely racist in the sixties
Speaker 5: and seventies, LAPD was like publicly unrepentantly racist.
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
Speaker 4: But at the same time, a lot of those jurors,
Speaker 4: jurors saying, yeah, we maybe made a mistake in letting.
Speaker 1: In letting him go, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: But then there was those ways that like Dad, I also,
Speaker 5: the Ryan Murphy series was so good that I never
Speaker 5: thought I'd be so interested in that OJ story as
Speaker 5: when they rebooted all of that and it all came
Speaker 5: out like at the same time because it was that
Speaker 5: thing of like you, it was because it was televised,
Speaker 5: it became something so much more than just this trial.
Speaker 5: It was like it took over the whole culture. And
Speaker 5: then it was like, I don't know, that was amazing,
Speaker 5: Yeah it was.
Speaker 4: And so wait, the Isaac from the Love Boat when
Speaker 4: did he at this?
Speaker 5: So Isaac from a Love Vote is in the James
Speaker 5: Brown came and did as a concert in South Central
Speaker 5: and it was for like when when the political movement
Speaker 5: started happening in the seventies and it was the power
Speaker 5: to the people basically kind of situation, and he did
Speaker 5: this big concert there. Isaac from the Love Boat is
Speaker 5: in the beginning of the documentary being interviewed about the
Speaker 5: political action that's taking place on the streets of South
Speaker 5: Central And he's not a famous actor yet. He's just
Speaker 5: a He's like a guy that's like, I have my
Speaker 5: family and I have to do this, and just a
Speaker 5: guy talking to the camera.
Speaker 1: And it's you.
Speaker 5: You recognize him immediately because of course it's Isaac from
Speaker 5: the Love Art and.
Speaker 4: We all know him well, he's aged. Well, I recognized
Speaker 4: him last year. Yeah, yeah, he's and like I said,
Speaker 4: the sweetest man. I wish I knew his name, but
Speaker 4: I speak from the Love Boat.
Speaker 5: It's Ted Mmmm, it's Ted something. No, the blonde guy
Speaker 5: was Ted McGinley. It's Ted.
Speaker 4: Chet and I didn't love both though I don't know.
Speaker 1: I bet he came on one time.
Speaker 4: He looks good in a sailor suit. Let's agree on that.
Speaker 1: He's definitely good at yachting.
Speaker 5: I think we know that. Can I turn left hair?
Speaker 4: I think so sure. There's all these signs Claim Jumper
Speaker 4: Casino the place to go for good food and fun.
Speaker 5: Do you want to go to the claim Jumper and
Speaker 5: get some go look bread.
Speaker 4: See every different area has their own claim Jumper jangle.
Speaker 1: Oh, I grew up with this one.
Speaker 4: I think Claim Jumper Casino, the one in Missoula, Montana.
Speaker 4: And the song that I did that accurately, I just
Speaker 4: sang had no, they were not related.
Speaker 1: They were not.
Speaker 4: No. This one, the one that I'm talking about. There
Speaker 4: was an actual picture of a prospector jumping for joy
Speaker 4: because he've just found some gold.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's the one. There used to be one. I
Speaker 5: think it's the same one. They just updated it because
Speaker 5: there was a claim Jumper on the drive to Las
Speaker 5: Vegas we used to stop at when me cj Arabia
Speaker 5: ken daily.
Speaker 1: All the people used to go to Velles and it
Speaker 1: was up.
Speaker 5: On a hill and it looked like an old sawmill
Speaker 5: like on the hill. And when you ordered the garlic bread,
Speaker 5: it was knee on orange. It looked like Kraft macaroni
Speaker 5: and cheese powder on top of bread and it was good.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I remember being a person that liked that. Now
Speaker 4: New York Film Academy does that it's a font thing.
Speaker 4: Doesn't it make you think of New York.
Speaker 5: Seltzer, Yes, I think it's supposed to.
Speaker 1: I think they're trying to trick you.
Speaker 4: I think that that that that font is.
Speaker 5: Called New Yorker, it's called showbiz. I'd also like to
Speaker 5: say this, there's a good chance that the documentary I'm
Speaker 5: talking about that it's the it's I want to say
Speaker 5: James Brown is the one that was doing that. I'm
Speaker 5: almost positive it was. But then there's a chance it
Speaker 5: could be someone else. Oh, but I'm almost positive with Brown.
Speaker 4: I bet, I bet all this. It's going to be
Speaker 4: up yeah, and fact checked and notified on Twitter.
Speaker 5: There's just you know, I don't know. It's we should
Speaker 5: look up at that actor's name.
Speaker 4: Okay, let's do that. Ted totally makes sense.
Speaker 1: Ted mixed something.
Speaker 4: Let's look, it's okay to have some down.
Speaker 5: Time or Ted Glass, Ted Glass, No, Ted.
Speaker 4: Typing with one. His name was Theodore William Ted Lang,
Speaker 4: Ted Lang, Ted Lang, you were right, I was.
Speaker 1: Close Theodore William Lang.
Speaker 4: What a smile? Look at him.
Speaker 5: He was so charming, that guy. Yeah, he was having
Speaker 5: a good time at that bar. And also everyone confided
Speaker 5: in him because he's a bartender.
Speaker 4: That's right. It maybe was the most interesting plot reoccurring
Speaker 4: plot on that show than all the love Maggie.
Speaker 1: All the Lido deck hotness.
Speaker 5: Yeah. I always liked the idea that people, certain people
Speaker 5: got to sit at the captain's table, but other people
Speaker 5: did not, And that kind of elitism was what I
Speaker 5: was all about.
Speaker 4: Yeah, back then, you just earned it somehow.
Speaker 5: There was one episode where Chachi was on, Scott Bao
Speaker 5: was on, and he got a crush on a girl
Speaker 5: on that boat. And when I watched it, it was
Speaker 5: as if it was as if I was finding out
Speaker 5: that my real boyfriend was cheating on me on television.
Speaker 5: That's how it felt to watch Scott Baio Love. I
Speaker 5: think it may have been Vicki or somebody on the
Speaker 5: Love Boat.
Speaker 4: Oh wow. You know it's so funny that I don't
Speaker 4: I remember that show being on, But I think it
Speaker 4: was just bad timing for me. I did not ever
Speaker 4: watch an episode. I'm gonna just admit that.
Speaker 5: Okay, you might be a little bit too young too.
Speaker 4: It was like the perfect for me fairly.
Speaker 5: But can I just point out that the license plate
Speaker 5: holder on the car in front of us says swimming
Speaker 5: makes me wet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's fun because there's sexual innuendo, but also it's
Speaker 4: just quite literal because.
Speaker 1: But then coorse it does it does?
Speaker 5: It doesn't need to be said no, And it looks
Speaker 5: like a family van, right, So then it makes me
Speaker 5: think some weird mom who doesn't have correct boundaries is
Speaker 5: in charge there. Yeah, then I get real work.
Speaker 4: What kind of things is she just saying to the
Speaker 4: kids in the backseat. If that's an.
Speaker 5: Example, this is it's a peek inside a world I
Speaker 5: don't want to know exists, right.
Speaker 4: I do. And the last thing I think about when
Speaker 4: I'm swimming a sex bainly because of how many band
Speaker 4: aids there are in the pool that I go to,
Speaker 4: so many, it's.
Speaker 1: So gross, so gross.
Speaker 5: It's really good.
Speaker 4: I go there, I get the work done. It's therapy
Speaker 4: for me. Most of the women I swim with are
Speaker 4: in their eighties and I'm not being agis, but sex
Speaker 4: does not come up, and luckily so it's all therapeutic.
Speaker 1: But this I don't know.
Speaker 5: I don't. I feel like that's the kind of stuff
Speaker 5: you don't announce to la traffic. No, that's private thoughts,
Speaker 5: and that's.
Speaker 4: It's like an impact font. It's very logical. She really
Speaker 4: wants people to know at least have it being seductive.
Speaker 5: Cursive, I know, and kind of like a very much
Speaker 5: thinner script.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd like I'd like the script to be at
Speaker 4: least a warning of how saltry the message is.
Speaker 5: Going to be, and not some block letter like the
Speaker 5: Olympics announcements.
Speaker 4: You just screamed at me that we're going swimming and
Speaker 4: we're gonna fop mom.
Speaker 1: And we're on fucking riverside.
Speaker 5: No one needs that here in this part of town. Now,
Speaker 5: I've decided to drive over here because not only are
Speaker 5: we in the inquestrian area of Burbank, which is fun,
Speaker 5: but we're going to drive by the Bullet Alley, which
Speaker 5: I love. And also it's kind of there's nature. It's
Speaker 5: a fun area.
Speaker 4: Christian Duguey lives somewhere around this party, and I went
Speaker 4: to his house on New Year's Eve and it was
Speaker 4: very fun. And you know what everyone did at midnight
Speaker 4: instead of makeout in front of single people, Huh, what
Speaker 4: here we go? We jumped in his pool like all
Speaker 4: once I get like, it was straight out of Uh.
Speaker 4: It's a wonderful life. Well except those people fell into
Speaker 4: the pool, everyone consciously and there was no phone accidents.
Speaker 4: No one.
Speaker 5: Oh that's great. No one got pushed, no one. It
Speaker 5: was it was great.
Speaker 4: It was like at midnight, everyone and no one. I
Speaker 4: almost appreciate this now more. No one took video of it.
Speaker 4: We just did it for the sake of an experience.
Speaker 5: That's great, and it was fun.
Speaker 4: I mean I changed first, I went to the bathroom,
Speaker 4: put on my trunks. We counted down to midnight. I
Speaker 4: leapt into the pool right at that moment. It was
Speaker 4: like a cool thing.
Speaker 5: I didn't know be cool.
Speaker 4: It was really cool.
Speaker 1: That sounds great.
Speaker 5: I really love, love love Emily my Mills. She's so
Speaker 5: much and the fact that she's from San Francisco makes me.
Speaker 5: It just I feel like such a kinship with her
Speaker 5: because she's from where I'm from, and she's the coolest person.
Speaker 4: There's a bay. It used to be a bath bathing area,
Speaker 4: and it's on it's made of stone. A long long
Speaker 4: time ago, it was some bathing area. Do you know
Speaker 4: that part of San Francisco, Yeah, the Sutra baths. Yes.
Speaker 4: And I just ran into her and Christian there and
Speaker 4: her mom, like I just randomly was there and I
Speaker 4: bumped into them and then we all went out that night.
Speaker 4: They're they're the best. And Emily is in the the
Speaker 4: thing that I shot recently that we're now editing, where
Speaker 4: we're I'm composited into that old Hell's Angel movie and she, oh, yeah,
Speaker 4: she's like the love interest. But and we had like
Speaker 4: these two scenes where we're supposed to kiss, and it
Speaker 4: felt weird, and I'm like, what if we just awkwardly
Speaker 4: don't kiss and our faces get real close and and
Speaker 4: it'll end up being a really funny part of it.
Speaker 4: I'm glad that she's married to my friend. I'm not
Speaker 4: going to kiss her. I'm not. This isn't a real
Speaker 4: thing where we're acting. It would just feel weird.
Speaker 5: But it was your big chance.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's my last chance. Yeah. I think she's
Speaker 4: married for good. I think they're happy. And she's so
Speaker 4: good in it. She's she's real good at that Joanne
Speaker 4: where the old time acting sound. She's very does it
Speaker 4: very subtly in this thing. Yeah, and I've seen footage
Speaker 4: of it. I'm very excited about it. That's something I'm
Speaker 4: excited to show it to you. I've seen some sneak peeks.
Speaker 5: And when is it? When it comes out? Where will
Speaker 5: it be just in the internet.
Speaker 4: We are being shot with the folks that make Tim
Speaker 4: and Eric and Eric Condridge. Absolutely yes, they are going
Speaker 4: to help us pitch it, which that's the valuable Yeah,
Speaker 4: and and I'm very excited about that. I think it
Speaker 4: belongs on Adult Swim. So I'm just gonna say that's
Speaker 4: where it's gonna end up.
Speaker 5: I love it.
Speaker 4: Put it in the universe.
Speaker 5: Let's tell the universe. Let's really get specific with our
Speaker 5: wants and knees.
Speaker 4: I know a lot of people don't talk about the
Speaker 4: Secret anymore, but I'm going to bring it back, bring
Speaker 4: it back without reading that Psychoed Path book. I'm not
Speaker 4: gonna read it.
Speaker 1: I can, I can.
Speaker 5: I watched the movie, I read the book. I can
Speaker 5: tell you anything about the secret.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh wow. And I kind of I subscribe
Speaker 1: to the magazine only. But I here's the thing.
Speaker 4: I know, how about the Artist's Way? Do you do that?
Speaker 5: My mom bought me that book when I was like
Speaker 5: twenty and I.
Speaker 4: Was like, Maria Bamford gave it to me.
Speaker 1: Thanks Mom.
Speaker 4: There's a lot of homework.
Speaker 5: There's it's all writing, it's all like put down your
Speaker 5: dreams and do this thing.
Speaker 1: And it's like, what if I don't know?
Speaker 5: What if I don't check in with myself, and nor
Speaker 5: am I interested in checking in with myself to find
Speaker 5: out what I truly want?
Speaker 4: Deep down? Right?
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I will tell you this.
Speaker 5: The concept behind the secret is very simple, and they
Speaker 5: try to stretch it out and make it different. What
Speaker 5: it is is figure out what you want to do
Speaker 5: and then focus on it and not just like trying
Speaker 5: to grab people and tell them about it. Right, just
Speaker 5: do that energy. Yeah, that's a very.
Speaker 4: Putting it into the universe. Now you're lying to me
Speaker 4: and telling me you got a show.
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, that's not don't tell anybody. Focus on it
Speaker 5: for yourself, and you create the energy around it by
Speaker 5: by your just the force of will and your focus.
Speaker 5: And basically you going like I want this thing and
Speaker 5: then I wanted to happen because I.
Speaker 4: Swear to that it sounds like an annoying person, though
Speaker 4: I don't want to. I don't want to be that person.
Speaker 4: He's always talking about his.
Speaker 1: Dreams, but you're not talking to people about it.
Speaker 4: That's my It's okay.
Speaker 5: It's like you can walk around your apartment and go like,
Speaker 5: I want to be a cartoonist on Man TV or whatever.
Speaker 1: Right, right mad megaic?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, No, it's okay.
Speaker 5: They're very related, same font, but you know whatever, like you,
Speaker 5: it's more of your It's for yours.
Speaker 1: The message is for you.
Speaker 4: It's not I could. I could stand to do that.
Speaker 4: I don't. I've never had someone. That was one of
Speaker 4: the first things I heard when I moved to town
Speaker 4: is it's like, as long as you know why you're
Speaker 4: he or what you want. But I've never known, and
Speaker 4: I kind of have enjoyed the journey of like I
Speaker 4: never asked if I could interview people at skateboard events
Speaker 4: or whatever. And then when I was doing that, I'm like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, this what a cool job. And I'm
Speaker 4: not doing that now, and I look back on it fondly,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, Like all the accidental things.
Speaker 4: There's absolutely right now. Oh hey, the high building, you
Speaker 4: love you you building, Mary, Christmas to you in jail.
Speaker 4: I didn't watch that this year.
Speaker 5: I didn't either. We know how it ends, Oh yeah,
Speaker 5: he dies right well?
Speaker 4: Angels. It talks about angels getting wings. I think that's
Speaker 4: the very final message. Boy, Clarence. I'm sorry. I like
Speaker 4: to do I'd like to do voices from that.
Speaker 5: You like get a little nice Jimmy Stroure Store, I do.
Speaker 5: I do Jimmy Store, I do. I like doing that.
Speaker 4: I like doing Christopher Walk. I like doing all the
Speaker 4: ones no one wants to hear.
Speaker 1: They call them the simples.
Speaker 4: And but yes, I need to do that. I need
Speaker 4: to make a clear plan and I kind of am good. Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the way to do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't tell anybody what you.
Speaker 4: Want, right, just have it in your head.
Speaker 5: And then if they ask, you can say it real
Speaker 5: fast because you'll have it ready right.
Speaker 4: No. That that's part of the reason that when I
Speaker 4: moved here, people like my manager at the time where
Speaker 4: But so when someone asks you, you give a clear
Speaker 4: answer rather than me saying, yeah, I'll do whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I enjoy it. Yeah, sure, I'll act as a plan.
Speaker 4: B what kind of what I remember moving here? And
Speaker 4: someone's like, you need to do impressions on stage and
Speaker 4: I'm like, no, I'm not willing to let anyone tell me.
Speaker 5: Well, that's that's the hard thing about comedy is you
Speaker 5: get here because you're you're good at comedy. In your town,
Speaker 5: and so they're like, oh, move to LA. You're so
Speaker 5: good at comedy. And then you move to LA and
Speaker 5: you very quickly realize comedy isn't enough, right, and you
Speaker 5: have to start figuring out how to be good at
Speaker 5: other things and basically casting the net way fucking whiter
Speaker 5: than stand up right, And that's horrifying.
Speaker 4: And if you move there and you have this really
Speaker 4: specific plan, I always feel like, well, that's you're really
Speaker 4: upping the chances of that not being fulfilled. If it's
Speaker 4: a super specific yeah, thing, but it works for some people.
Speaker 5: It does work for some people, but it's you have
Speaker 5: to be like, well, this is the plan, and what
Speaker 5: I want so badly is to be on like Hollywood
Speaker 5: Game Night. Well you have that in your pocket, but
Speaker 5: you don't not do other things in lieu of that.
Speaker 5: You don't hold out for that. You do everything to
Speaker 5: build toward the great dream of Hollywood Game Night. Is
Speaker 5: it is still on the air.
Speaker 4: No, I don't know what Hollywood Game Night is. I
Speaker 4: thought that was just a general like making it in town.
Speaker 5: For some reason, Hollywood Game Night is a TV show
Speaker 5: and it's the first and only TV show I can
Speaker 5: think of the name of I have never heard of it.
Speaker 5: I think Jane Lynch is the host. It's celebrities playing games.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, you know it's.
Speaker 1: A the hangout. It's the hangout genre of television.
Speaker 4: I wonder if I met Jane Lynch if she'd like me.
Speaker 5: I bet she would, I hope. So as long as
Speaker 5: you're not whistling.
Speaker 1: Oh, she is also of the theater.
Speaker 4: Yes, I've enjoyed her work.
Speaker 5: She's so funny. So now we're in I guess this
Speaker 5: is partly Glendale, isn't it. Or we're kind of back
Speaker 5: in for a bank again. Oh okay, we've gone. I
Speaker 5: mean we've made a very large square.
Speaker 4: Well, we've all I mean, we're getting close to where
Speaker 4: we could wrap it. Are giving closing statements.
Speaker 5: I guess. Let's see. I'm for twenty eighteen. I'm gonna
Speaker 5: try harder.
Speaker 4: To yes resolutions.
Speaker 1: Let's do some resolutions.
Speaker 4: Okay, here we go. I'll try and think of one
Speaker 4: real quick.
Speaker 1: Okay, we haven't done, have we done?
Speaker 5: We did? Was was our episode with Matt before the
Speaker 5: New Year after?
Speaker 4: I believe it was before?
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, so let's see this. I'm gonna try to
Speaker 5: leave my house more and socialize more, yes, because kind
Speaker 5: of like you were saying, but it's like you have
Speaker 5: to be out getting the good feedback to remember that.
Speaker 5: That's what that in my mind, I'm always like, I'm
Speaker 5: just gonna go to a party. It's all the same people.
Speaker 5: I don't want to have the same dumb conversation rightly,
Speaker 5: which is pretending that I know how all of life
Speaker 5: is going to go right, which is insane. And also
Speaker 5: I don't give anybody a chance to like try to
Speaker 5: talk to me because I find that humiliating. So there's
Speaker 5: like a I have a weird like I can stay
Speaker 5: for fifteen minutes and then I have to sneak out
Speaker 5: the back right where like we got a text from
Speaker 5: Matt of like sorry to talk to you. There's all
Speaker 5: these people at that party. I didn't talk to you
Speaker 5: that I could have, but I was just like I can't.
Speaker 5: So anyway, I'm gonna be less of a quitter.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, me, I'm me too, because I'm I've been
Speaker 4: thinking that I have to stay home and stay out
Speaker 4: of trouble. I don't know, I just am becoming a
Speaker 4: scared person. Yeah, I think it happens as you get older. Yeah,
Speaker 4: you're just like, well, I'll stay at home because I
Speaker 4: enjoy being at home.
Speaker 5: Yeah, me too, but that's not very exciting and it's
Speaker 5: not like for me, I need good experiences so that
Speaker 5: I can tell myself good things happen also when you
Speaker 5: leave the house, as opposed to just never doing it
Speaker 5: and then being like, no one likes you and you're
Speaker 5: a bad.
Speaker 4: And my interaction today it's on social media. It wasn't
Speaker 4: even someone actually saying good job. It was just like
Speaker 4: I looked at and like, oh, people like this thing.
Speaker 4: I'm looking at my phone. I haven't. It was enough though,
Speaker 4: for today, I really it got you through. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: it's my little fake news thing is getting passed around.
Speaker 4: That feels nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's very good.
Speaker 4: Not fake news. It's not about that. It's just a
Speaker 4: pretend news thing.
Speaker 5: It's just a fun I want to see it.
Speaker 4: And I'll show it to you when we're done.
Speaker 5: And everybody that's listening to this, go look at go
Speaker 5: look at Chris's Twitter feed and then you can see
Speaker 5: what this is as well.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's a thing that I did, and I wasn't
Speaker 4: sure how it would turn out, but I think that
Speaker 4: I like it.
Speaker 5: Let Chris know, if you don't like it by recording
Speaker 5: your own video of something better, can you do it?
Speaker 1: I don't think you can.
Speaker 5: It's a rebuttal of sort a creative rebuttal of quality
Speaker 5: work you're putting forward.
Speaker 4: Yeah, A touche if you will, A touch. You know.
Speaker 5: The one thing I have been doing lately, which is
Speaker 5: you know, it's something I'm great at, which is eating.
Speaker 5: But I've been making dinner plans with friends where we
Speaker 5: go to fancy restaurants in La not just like oh,
Speaker 5: because I'll always just be like, meet me at the astro,
Speaker 5: like I love diners.
Speaker 4: But everything's shutting down on your corner? Did that?
Speaker 5: I know?
Speaker 1: Isn't that sad?
Speaker 4: That's very sad. I did cry. I'm like not.
Speaker 5: But we went Patriots and I she's the best, she's
Speaker 5: the best.
Speaker 1: And her girlfriend.
Speaker 5: We went to a restaurant called Gwen that's on Sunset Boulevard,
Speaker 5: down the street a little bit from where Cat and
Speaker 5: Fiddle used to be really fancy, and it was so fun.
Speaker 5: The food was incredible. It just felt like this event night,
Speaker 5: even though we just did it for fun, right, And
Speaker 5: that's the thing where I'm like, well, I'm gonna That's
Speaker 5: how I'm going to socialize, right, And then I think
Speaker 5: the other thing I might start doing is starting a
Speaker 5: game night.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'll play games right. It's good healthy fun too,
Speaker 4: because that's in the new year. I'm just I'm gonna
Speaker 4: be healthy. I'm not gonna drink. I'm gonna I'm gonna exercise.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get this damn hip of mine because only
Speaker 4: I don't think I told you. I went snowboarding a
Speaker 4: couple of days in a row in Montana and I
Speaker 4: felt great, Oh, my new hip works great.
Speaker 5: That's great.
Speaker 4: I even took some hard falls, which you don't usually
Speaker 4: fall in your day to day snowboard unless some one
Speaker 4: point said a thing and you slept or there's a mistake.
Speaker 4: But I'm like, I actually went and rode with my
Speaker 4: friends and jumped off stuff and wrecked and there was
Speaker 4: no pain.
Speaker 1: That's great.
Speaker 4: It was the best. I'm like fixed, that's great. So
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be gonna go outside and be outdoorsy again.
Speaker 4: That's good and not be you know, look for other ways.
Speaker 5: Oh you were saying when we were having when we
Speaker 5: were making actually fun and.
Speaker 1: Interesting small talk, I think I was talking to m.
Speaker 5: M M. Who was it? We were talking about surfing
Speaker 5: and then remember you were talking about how you your
Speaker 5: surfboard er, boogie board or whatever was actually in your
Speaker 5: in your garage and I just like had tucked it
Speaker 5: away and forgot about it. Yeah. Yeah, Like I would
Speaker 5: totally not write this moment. But like, if I lived
Speaker 5: where you lived, the goal of being a surfer would
Speaker 5: be a really amazing thing to do, right, because it's
Speaker 5: so good for you. It's really hard, but it's like
Speaker 5: so good for you.
Speaker 4: I just I've always felt like when I go do that,
Speaker 4: I'm like, I already know how to skateboard and that's
Speaker 4: what brings me joy. Why am I adding this other
Speaker 4: thing that I'm not good at yet? But it's totally different,
Speaker 4: and you're in the ocean and it's I wish I
Speaker 4: liked surfing more.
Speaker 5: I don't.
Speaker 4: I've gone fifty times. It's really hard, it's really frustrating.
Speaker 4: I'm supposed to like it and I don't. And I'm
Speaker 4: sorry to everyone that gets joy out.
Speaker 5: You know what.
Speaker 1: I love this honesty.
Speaker 5: I love this twenty eighteen honesty about extreme sports.
Speaker 4: I've seriously gone like fifty times. I believe you over
Speaker 4: the year. I've gone a lot, and I've had days
Speaker 4: where I felt like I was getting some luck with it,
Speaker 4: but it is that is the one thing, as if
Speaker 4: like a yoga move of me having my hands in
Speaker 4: front of my leading leg getting standing up on the thing,
Speaker 4: that is what hurts my hip. And it still is
Speaker 4: one of the things. Huh, standing sideways and like tying
Speaker 4: that shoe for instance, like yes, yes, having both hands
Speaker 4: up there is what hurts you know. That's why I
Speaker 4: haven't been enjoying it lately.
Speaker 5: I call that the hamstring issue.
Speaker 4: Oh it's my dumb hip. It's just the hip.
Speaker 5: But uh yeah, I feel like it's not going to
Speaker 5: be surfing for me. But it would be great if
Speaker 5: I got something as well that I that I like,
Speaker 5: that really engaged me. You know what I think it
Speaker 5: is secretly I'm going to tell you and then our audience,
Speaker 5: which is our secret. Okay.
Speaker 1: I think it's that I would love to.
Speaker 5: Be in a band.
Speaker 4: Oh you should be in a band.
Speaker 5: I want to be in a band, but ID yes,
Speaker 5: but I just wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I mean like I would to know how to do
Speaker 1: that or.
Speaker 4: I bet, but I would love it. You could easily
Speaker 4: do that I know, but.
Speaker 1: Like I don't know. There's also things.
Speaker 5: Where I'm like, I don't know.
Speaker 4: It would Yeah, it's it seems like something I always
Speaker 4: feel like, well, that's too late for me in life
Speaker 4: to do this thing. Yeah, but I don't think that
Speaker 4: about surfing. I just look back and on my experiences
Speaker 4: with it and realized I wasn't. It didn't bring me joy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you need it's the joy piece, and for me
Speaker 5: that is like.
Speaker 4: People won't accept that that. I don't want to serve either.
Speaker 1: But I will and have you're fighting no One.
Speaker 4: And I will go again. I will enjoy it. But
Speaker 4: I too would rather be in a band and I
Speaker 4: only play trombone.
Speaker 5: It's just like playing music is one of those things that,
Speaker 5: like time, it's the whole flow thing.
Speaker 1: It's like time.
Speaker 5: Moves differently, super engaging makes me happy in a wholly
Speaker 5: different chemical way.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 5: Uh, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I would love it if you're in a band. I
Speaker 4: love hearing you play music.
Speaker 5: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I was thinking.
Speaker 5: Too, would be fun if I recorded an album in
Speaker 5: my front, empty living room.
Speaker 4: Oh that sounds great.
Speaker 5: Wouldn't that be fun? Because like we have this zoom Yes,
Speaker 5: like Stephen could be that because you know, Stephen produces
Speaker 5: our other podcasts.
Speaker 4: Everyone would want to hear that.
Speaker 5: It doesn't need to be live, right, and there could
Speaker 5: be people in the front room when I do it,
Speaker 5: but like to do because I did my show. I
Speaker 5: mean I did a show with my friends the band
Speaker 5: shore Shore and did a couple songs, and I was like,
Speaker 5: I didn't want to do it. Lizzie Cooperman was like,
Speaker 5: you have to do it. You have to do things,
Speaker 5: and so I did it and it was super fun.
Speaker 5: And I did a Rihanna cover last minute that I
Speaker 5: actually pulled off, Like I did all these things that
Speaker 5: were big challenges and hard that I actually ended up
Speaker 5: pulling off where I was like, oh, I thought that
Speaker 5: was gonna be much more embarrassing than it was.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, So I would love to hear. I
Speaker 4: think everyone listening would be excited about you doing okay, well,
Speaker 4: recording some songs.
Speaker 5: If you'd be excited, send Chris twenty dollars.
Speaker 4: To my parthenon and then I'll yeah, I promised to
Speaker 4: do something.
Speaker 5: Also, I wonder if we should make an other design
Speaker 5: of a shirt.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so. I don't think that we should
Speaker 4: just print the same one again. I'll work on that.
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, like.
Speaker 1: You know, just could be just a steering wheel.
Speaker 4: Well, after doing the my favorite murder mustache shirt, I'm like,
Speaker 4: I'm like, I really.
Speaker 1: Like that when Oh Steven shirt.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I like thinking of at the very start
Speaker 4: of an idea, thinking of it as a shirt, which
Speaker 4: I never did for our little podcast illustration thing that
Speaker 4: was just to be an icon for the website or
Speaker 4: wherever people listen to. And I still don't know how
Speaker 4: this works or where people go.
Speaker 1: None of us do.
Speaker 5: What if you did an action shirt that was in
Speaker 5: your illustrative version of when the guy tried to hit
Speaker 5: the car with the bike lock ooh, which was a
Speaker 5: moment we talked about on this podcast.
Speaker 6: Car.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's come up a lot. Yeah, like an act
Speaker 4: like a comic booky action shirt.
Speaker 5: Yeah, where it's our pov of looking at the guy
Speaker 5: attacking the car and then.
Speaker 1: It's do you need to ride?
Speaker 4: I like it. I think that's a good idea.
Speaker 1: That'd be kind of cool.
Speaker 4: Right, I'll knock around some ideas. That's at the top
Speaker 4: right now, though, a scared Todd Glass screaming and yeah,
Speaker 4: well we really horrified Todd that day.
Speaker 1: I mean that was rough.
Speaker 4: It was rough and tumble. Well, I'm happy to see
Speaker 4: you again.
Speaker 5: I know you too. Yeah, we're going to socialize more
Speaker 5: in twenty eighteen. We're going to do more with this podcast.
Speaker 5: We're going to record more often.
Speaker 4: I'm going to go to one of these game nights
Speaker 4: or dinner dates with you.
Speaker 5: Okay, great, I'm going to do that, plan it out,
Speaker 5: have my friends over. I think the older you get,
Speaker 5: you really have to get proactive about doing stuff like that,
Speaker 5: because when you're younger, it just kind of happens.
Speaker 4: Tomind you. Tonight, I'm doing a movie night with my
Speaker 4: friend Chuck, who is out of the hospital and he's
Speaker 4: doing well, and we're all going to watch a movie
