Speaker 2: the year of this Make I model.
Speaker 1: And I do have the VIN number, which I would

Speaker 1: do the first four numbers of the VIN number next week,
Speaker 1: and then subsequently through the rest of the year, you
Speaker 1: will get the entire VIN number.
Speaker 2: And this is very interesting. Within those first four you
Speaker 2: find out where it was manufactured h There will be
Speaker 2: an age for Honda. You find out the make and
Speaker 2: the year. Those are all in the first four digits
Speaker 2: of a viner. A lot of people don't know that
Speaker 2: unless they're police officers or have done a little bit
Speaker 2: of car research like I have.
Speaker 6: But you know what also is in those first four
Speaker 6: numbers is my birth date? Really and a picture, a
Speaker 6: picture of a small rabbit. But you have to it's
Speaker 6: in the numbers.
Speaker 1: You have to. You don't see it at first. It's
Speaker 1: like the arrow and the FedEx symbol. You don't see it.
Speaker 1: Then when you see it, you can't not see it.
Speaker 2: So this car was manufactured for you for carecal air. Yeah, obvious.
Speaker 2: I mean otherwise, how would your birthday be in it?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 2: That's amazing?
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I mean I it was really nice because
Speaker 6: when I met Dan Honda of the Honda Corporation.
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, what this is all starting to sound
Speaker 2: like a much like the rabbit you speak of, a
Speaker 2: little white lie. That's just a little white rabbit. Lie.
Speaker 1: You know what I gotta tell you, Chris, I love lying.
Speaker 2: I know. There's no Jonathan Honda, Dan Dan Danny hondah
Speaker 2: only his best friends call him Dan, Well, I call
Speaker 2: him Jonathan. You don't know Dan like I know John.
Speaker 1: You don't know Johnny.
Speaker 2: I know the whole Honda family.
Speaker 6: There's I love the motorcycle side of the family. They're
Speaker 6: more fun at Christmas and.
Speaker 2: That's why Honda Motorcycles, cars and keyboards are a big sponsor.
Speaker 2: Do you need a ride today? In the episode, we
Speaker 2: will be picking up Howard Kramer from his residents.
Speaker 1: Who and he is sponsored by Honda knee boards and Keyboards.
Speaker 2: He being Howard Kramer is early comedy influence of mine.
Speaker 2: Did you know that, Karen Uh?
Speaker 6: I didn't know that. I just know that every once
Speaker 6: in a while, his voice pops up when you are
Speaker 6: either in a bad mood or trying to explain.
Speaker 1: Something to me.
Speaker 2: Every once in a while, you hang out with someone
Speaker 2: like a certain amount of times and then you start
Speaker 2: to mimic the way they talk.
Speaker 1: I find Howard Kramer honestly to be one of the
Speaker 1: most fascinating human beings I've ever met.
Speaker 6: I adore him. I love talking to him at parties.
Speaker 6: He's one of my favorite people to see at a
Speaker 6: party because he makes the time go by so quickly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he really does.
Speaker 1: He's just good times in my opinion, And he's such
Speaker 1: an original mind.
Speaker 2: He is an original mind. That's a mind that created
Speaker 2: Austin's stories, an early MTV ahead of its time, multi camera,
Speaker 2: single camera.
Speaker 1: It's a it was single camera.
Speaker 2: It was a single They shot that whole show series
Speaker 2: with just one camera the whole time.
Speaker 1: It was it was a disc camera. That was the
Speaker 1: craziest thing about it. Remember disc cameras?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 1: Did you ever have a disc camera?
Speaker 2: It was early digital recording. You put a tiny disk
Speaker 2: in it and it was ready to go.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: And and we're gonna talk about what else has been up
Speaker 2: to his numerous pilot writings, and I imagine he's just
Speaker 2: wrapping up all new gaggle of summer based comedy.
Speaker 1: Yes, he loves this season of summer.
Speaker 6: He loves He turned it into a different word, which
Speaker 6: is summer with an age.
Speaker 1: A lot of people know.
Speaker 6: This about him because his podcast Who Charted with Kulap
Speaker 6: Layasak is one of the most popular and one of
Speaker 6: my favorite podcasts.
Speaker 2: I might turn off the stereo, do it?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah? Is that a weird? Does it feel like schizophrenia?
Speaker 2: Well, it just sounds like there's music in the background. Yeah,
Speaker 2: there we go.
Speaker 5: Oh, but but maybe that was a nice added effect.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm sorry that I pulled the radio whistle.
Speaker 1: You're allowed to pull any whistle you want.
Speaker 2: Chris Fairbanks, Well, it would have been the first time
Speaker 2: in Do you Need a Ride History that we had
Speaker 2: ambient music playing.
Speaker 6: Have you ever had that where you Sometimes my TV
Speaker 6: shuts it self off after four hours if I don't
Speaker 6: change the channel, it'll shut itself off, but the tuner
Speaker 6: where the speakers for the sound does not go off,
Speaker 6: so it'll be on real low, and I'll be sitting
Speaker 6: in the TV room, no TV on, hearing voices and going,
Speaker 6: it's finally happened.
Speaker 1: I've snapped.
Speaker 2: What is it now? You forget it's a TV?
Speaker 1: Then I really well, because the TV itself is not
Speaker 1: It's just that, and then I'll recognize either the conversation
Speaker 1: or something about it, and then I'll go, oh, thank god,
Speaker 1: it's the TV and not a total breakdown schizophrenia.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would frighten me.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And they always say if you hear voices, you're pretty
Speaker 2: much that's early Richard Ramirez type behavior.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't get to talk about Richard Ramirez as
Speaker 1: much as I wanted to, because he.
Speaker 2: Kind of bumps me out, you know when I really
Speaker 2: get into a deep Ramirez talk, I mean, all the
Speaker 2: guy did is kill people. I mean all he wanted
Speaker 2: is for others to talk about him. So why give him?
Speaker 2: Why give him the credit?
Speaker 6: Well he earned it, though, because he really did go
Speaker 6: out and kill all this.
Speaker 2: Well it's a hardware from here to San Francisco. He
Speaker 2: slayed a lot of people. And you're connected through your
Speaker 2: family at all to any of these slayings. We apologize
Speaker 2: for making line.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm definitely not laughing at that part.
Speaker 2: It was a long time ago, so maybe get over it.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, we would hope that healing has come
Speaker 1: your way. Yeah, thoughts and prayers.
Speaker 2: And by get over it, I mean heel in a
Speaker 2: natural and healthy way.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. I'm very fascinated by all serial killers.
Speaker 1: Richard Murmirez. Did you watch the whole thing where the
Speaker 1: way he got caught.
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No, Well, you know, they.
Speaker 6: Obviously great detective work and all that, but they started
Speaker 6: they finally figured out who.
Speaker 1: It was based I believe on his tennis shoes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: A Villas And then and then via eight or eight twenties,
Speaker 1: they let they tracked some stuff down, put his picture
Speaker 1: on some flyers.
Speaker 2: He like it was a party.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, they were like, come come to this party
Speaker 1: of total murder and dead eyes and but also great cheekbones.
Speaker 2: Got the guy had some bone structure.
Speaker 1: He really he easily could have been a model, which
Speaker 1: I think a lot of models could either go serial
Speaker 1: killer or like a beautiful model.
Speaker 2: As long as it wasn't a toothy photo because the
Speaker 2: guy had had zero to no dental work done.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was a bit of a.
Speaker 2: Bus some corn niblets for They used to call him
Speaker 2: summer teeth. What summer summer point in this way, summer
Speaker 2: point in that way.
Speaker 1: You never heard that, No, I never did. But that's
Speaker 1: not I thought you were relating it back.
Speaker 2: To yes, you know, in a weird, unknown way. I
Speaker 2: think I was.
Speaker 1: I think you're subconscious with serving that upright to you.
Speaker 2: M h.
Speaker 6: But what I was gonna say was, oh, all the
Speaker 6: people in the neighborhood recognized him. He tried to get
Speaker 6: on a bus, people recognized him. And this was somewhere
Speaker 6: in in Della or maybe like down by Downey.
Speaker 1: You know, it's a little bit rougher beautiful rough area,
Speaker 1: but beautiful rough but gorgeous.
Speaker 2: I mean for people, the people are okay. People are
Speaker 2: trees really in the bushes.
Speaker 1: Nice hedges down and.
Speaker 2: You don't have to do much to keep them green.
Speaker 6: The whole neighborhood ran after him and attacked him and
Speaker 6: like helled him until the cops.
Speaker 1: Came, which is amazing. I just love that one.
Speaker 6: Looks like you get told all the time that like
Speaker 6: there's no more community, or that people don't work together, bullshit, But.
Speaker 2: Until you see an old lady, a farmer, and a
Speaker 2: construction worker all do a citizens or.
Speaker 1: S tackle and somehow an eskimo. How did he get there?
Speaker 1: We don't know.
Speaker 2: No, it was a very uh you know, village people type.
Speaker 1: It was Hollywood.
Speaker 2: They were carrying hoes and torches. There was a garden hose,
Speaker 2: because that's why the area looks so nice.
Speaker 1: Wise, that's right. They were tending to it and luckily
Speaker 1: they had all their pitchforks, that's.
Speaker 2: Why they were outside and aware.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were.
Speaker 2: Till they were tilling the soil.
Speaker 1: I mean, this has become an incredibly informational podcast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you if you feel like you haven't learned anything.
Speaker 2: Maybe you need to turn.
Speaker 1: Up the volume, yeah, because.
Speaker 2: Nothing but information is pumping through your speakers or headphones,
Speaker 2: whatever media you're using. So we are in the Hollywood area.
Speaker 2: This is a classically Hollywood area.
Speaker 1: A lot of apartments, good hedges around here.
Speaker 2: Too, beautiful hedges. It's almost like everyone has a gardener
Speaker 2: around here.
Speaker 1: It is very much like that.
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure they do.
Speaker 1: You kind of get a gardener when you move to LA.
Speaker 2: Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 1: You get your own.
Speaker 2: It seems like you're struggling and you're out of money
Speaker 2: and you're barely making rent. But guess what, you have
Speaker 2: a gardener. You've made it.
Speaker 1: That's right. Some dude will show up and tend to
Speaker 1: your shit and tighten it up. Yeah, for all the
Speaker 1: neighborhood to see. And that's pretty nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need your shit tightened up.
Speaker 1: Expected come to our town.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: We don't have a good like transit system.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we don't have a lot of nice people per se, yes,
Speaker 6: or moral people per.
Speaker 2: Se and people are lacking in morals or friendliness. However,
Speaker 2: did I have a nice well and it maintained frontage? Yeah,
Speaker 2: even during a drought.
Speaker 1: Oh, my god, my grass has never been greener.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. And who cares if the reservoirs run dry?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter, because ultimately this is supposed to
Speaker 1: be a desert. We will return back to desert, and
Speaker 1: in the meantime, I'm going to keep up with the goddamn.
Speaker 2: Jones is exactly. Oh, the Joneses have the best yard.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, it's dark green, it's so dark it's
Speaker 6: almost blue their grass.
Speaker 2: It's almost impossible to keep up with them.
Speaker 1: Keep trying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can try as hard as you might. You
Speaker 2: got to Karen, how have you been.
Speaker 1: I've been good. Yeah, uh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7: Day job going well, love the day job. Great gratitude.
Speaker 7: I have an attitude of gratitude, kind of have I
Speaker 7: like twenty fifteen. I think it's a good one.
Speaker 2: So far, so great, so great.
Speaker 1: Uh. I know we talked about this, but I watched
Speaker 1: You Have. Should I go up here?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Up there? Yeah? I watched You Have. One of my
Speaker 1: favorite sets of comedy I've ever seen. The night that
Speaker 1: we did the show with Drennan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a fun night, but.
Speaker 1: We didn't record yours. It was like the great It's
Speaker 1: like the classic thing of like what I watched you
Speaker 1: do this set where I was like, holy shit, it's
Speaker 1: a barn burner, and then you weren't recording well something.
Speaker 2: Had I recorded it, I wouldn't have been burning down
Speaker 2: no barns. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Same here. I'm the exact same way.
Speaker 2: I just can't.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a beautiful must Nay, yeah, that is.
Speaker 2: I don't get excited about hot rod cars, but that
Speaker 2: has got to belong to someone more important than me.
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful vehicle.
Speaker 1: What if it's Howard's car?
Speaker 2: What if it is? I guess I am saying that
Speaker 2: already about preemptively. Howard is more important than me.
Speaker 1: That's why he's the true church ture. Do you know
Speaker 1: where I should stop? Or should we just stay here?
Speaker 2: I would say, you know, all text towered and let
Speaker 2: him know we're about to come.
Speaker 1: And then we'll all just keep driving.
Speaker 2: Yeah okay, and he'll hopefully say, yeah, I do some
Speaker 2: more galasthetics. I stayed with him once, and he does
Speaker 2: have his own workout regimen. I bet a living room.
Speaker 2: He's in shape guy. He's a handsome guy.
Speaker 1: He's a handsome man.
Speaker 2: A beautiful man. I'm not afraid I say that with
Speaker 2: a straight Face's.
Speaker 1: Well, it's undeniable. I'm glad he doesn't have his topknot anymore.
Speaker 1: Though for a while he was trying to do a
Speaker 1: bun thing that I found very upsetting.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, Well it's hard for a guy. You know,
Speaker 2: there's a middle stage with your hair. And for me,
Speaker 2: I either have a shaved head or have a big,
Speaker 2: giant afro or I put in a lot of Layright
Speaker 2: hair products. He's a sponsor. Do you need a ride.
Speaker 2: It's water based and it gives you that nineteen fifties palmade.
Speaker 1: Look La Right hair products.
Speaker 2: You you're darn right, You're darn right, lright cold. I
Speaker 2: got in my hair and uh yeah, he's uh. He
Speaker 2: probably was just going through a hair phase.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well it was Summa. I hate saying that my
Speaker 6: favorite thing. I was at a party. Oh wait, no,
Speaker 6: this is what I didn't tell you. I was driving
Speaker 6: this car and a loud noise started happening and it
Speaker 6: turned out there was a big piece of plastic that
Speaker 6: was dragging underneath the car.
Speaker 2: Oh wow.
Speaker 6: So I got to work and my friend Artie Carlson,
Speaker 6: who is one of the great one of the greats
Speaker 6: who I work with came and cut off this thing
Speaker 6: that was dragging underneath.
Speaker 1: He said it was the oil pan cover or something
Speaker 1: like that, that you didn't need that, so he cut it off.
Speaker 2: Now is oil continuing to drip out now that there
Speaker 2: is no cover?
Speaker 6: No, it was just a plastic like housing too. Okay, right,
Speaker 6: so that gravel doesn't fly up in there.
Speaker 2: Take it right here on Hollywood Boulevard.
Speaker 6: And then that night I went somewhere a party or something,
Speaker 6: and on my drive home at midnight, the same noise
Speaker 6: but kind of worst starts happening.
Speaker 1: Huh and uh.
Speaker 6: I have to pull off the freeway because more stuff
Speaker 6: is hanging down.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 6: So I pull off and then I'm like, well, I
Speaker 6: can drive home. It's not dragging on the ground. It
Speaker 6: was just like obviously flapping free.
Speaker 1: Sure, So I drive a little further and then this
Speaker 1: really loud noise and something huge drops out from the
Speaker 1: bottom of my car and I just kept driving. Oh no,
Speaker 1: I just kept going because it was midnight.
Speaker 2: And then he's on the corner here left, and this
Speaker 2: guy was so up my asm. Yeah, yeah, he really
Speaker 2: had somewhere to go. And that sky on maybe the
Speaker 2: Church of sky Ontology. Oh see, I always know, I know,
Speaker 2: I know. Well I'm a lot of times my Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna.
Speaker 1: Tell him we're here, okay, anyway, so we've got no
Speaker 1: housing right now, but well that's okay. It's not expecting anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not a danger in anyone.
Speaker 6: I guess I felt the need to tell a car anecdote,
Speaker 6: and now that I told it, I feel like someone's
Speaker 6: boring uncle, you know what.
Speaker 2: I feel that way with a lot of stories, Like
Speaker 2: I tell it like it's going to have a great ending.
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying this is what just happened with
Speaker 2: your snooze fest of a story, but I you tell
Speaker 2: it with all this cadence and excitement and energy level,
Speaker 2: and then you find about midway, Yeah, because it's true,
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, this is a doozy. I remember the
Speaker 2: details like it was yesterday, because in this case, for you,
Speaker 2: did you say it was yesterday?
Speaker 1: No, it was a couple of days ago, So.
Speaker 2: The details are still fresh and that has all the
Speaker 2: signs of a story. And then you get to the
Speaker 2: end and it's really no payoff. And I'm not saying
Speaker 2: that's how I experienced your story.
Speaker 6: But my story was one step above telling someone about
Speaker 6: your dream.
Speaker 1: It really was. It was almost worse because at least
Speaker 1: in a dream, you're like I was in Asia or something,
Speaker 1: and mine was like the housing fell off the bottom
Speaker 1: of my cl.
Speaker 2: There wasn't even like an interesting location.
Speaker 1: San Fernando Road by the Gentleman's.
Speaker 2: Club, or were you dry? What did your hands at
Speaker 2: least look like feather wings? There was nothing dream like
Speaker 2: about this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no it was. It was more nightmarish. But in
Speaker 1: the boring way, he's.
Speaker 2: On his way out. He sent the letter K, which
Speaker 2: I think just means I am in approval and I
Speaker 2: will see you shortly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or he's trying to miss send a message to.
Speaker 2: Me the uh just just say your first initial. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I got you.
Speaker 1: I think he may have been picking favorites.
Speaker 2: We are going to Yeah. He didn't say C like
Speaker 2: as in C he.
Speaker 1: Could have said C. Yeah yeah, real soon? Well my purse,
Speaker 1: real question?
Speaker 2: Sure? Sure? Is it down here in the darkness? It's
Speaker 2: by your feet, Okay, I will grab it.
Speaker 6: You know what I anticipate is that Howard's gonna stop
Speaker 6: spilled out. Oh that's right, I just need some hand
Speaker 6: oce Oh okay, I feel like Howard's gonna drive this conversation.
Speaker 2: Sure, that's fine.
Speaker 1: I feel like he's gonna He's probably gonna have an
Speaker 1: agenda even that's okay, Like did you pick your summagum
Speaker 1: type of thing?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I hope he does. I have some questions to
Speaker 2: ask him about sharks, okay, and why he thinks the
Speaker 2: ocean is better than outer space?
Speaker 1: I think that was another Is that a true thing?
Speaker 1: That like a conversation you guys had one.
Speaker 2: Because and I understand that like the ocean, the deep ocean,
Speaker 2: there's glowing oh jellyfish, it's it's really is like another planet.
Speaker 1: I'm one hundred with Howard on that.
Speaker 2: Phosphorus residing in animals causing them to glow. If that's
Speaker 2: not an outer space behavior, I don't know what is,
Speaker 2: because I am non asked or not. I've not been
Speaker 2: to outer space.
Speaker 1: Is there any kind of animal with phosphorus in it?
Speaker 1: And space?
Speaker 2: Certainly there must be. I mean, I said, yeah, I jumped.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I actually don't know. So I'm going
Speaker 2: to say I'm not.
Speaker 1: Sure, But do you think Howard knows?
Speaker 2: I thought you were going to say the ocean and
Speaker 2: they're are. Indeed, like sometimes just say the waves crashing
Speaker 2: and it looks like a lightning bolt and you're like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, am I hallucinating? They said, no, that
Speaker 2: was just marijuana, and I said, well, I don't smoke
Speaker 2: a lot, so are you seeing it also? And they
Speaker 2: say yes, And it's like, well, I guess that's the
Speaker 2: Gulf of Mask. That's the mes golf for you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's the.
Speaker 2: Near Are in the back seat, Yeah, it's in the
Speaker 2: back seat. Yeah, we are. Indeed, there's there's a microphone
Speaker 2: right by you. You know how to use that as
Speaker 2: per your occupation. Whoops, Hi, Hi, good to see you
Speaker 2: guys too, buddy.
Speaker 8: What are you talking about?
Speaker 2: We were talking about summer. We were talking about sharks,
Speaker 2: and we were talking about the difference between the ocean
Speaker 2: and outer space.
Speaker 8: That's right, Well, the ocean is way better. It's wondrous, it's.
Speaker 5: Full of life, and space is a big nothing and
Speaker 5: uh tough to get to.
Speaker 2: The ocean is right there. You can do it there.
Speaker 2: You can swim out and find aliens. Yeah, exactly, all
Speaker 2: right here on our earth, filled with phosphorus, with lowing capabilities.
Speaker 2: Jellyfish that look like they're mechanical. I think how.
Speaker 5: Much people would freak out if they even found one
Speaker 5: snail in space. It would be like the most amazing thing. Meanwhile,
Speaker 5: we have dolphins that give each other names.
Speaker 2: M wait explain that. How do they they have the
Speaker 2: I'm taking it as it's one of my favorite Twitter accounts.
Speaker 1: Those are made up by two eighth graders in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you should be paying out much
Speaker 1: attention to uber facts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's it's just East Coast lies. We're gonna
Speaker 2: go to a comedy concert show called Power Violence.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, are you ready for the Yeah?
Speaker 2: I love that show because it's filled with youth and
Speaker 2: it brings me back to that place when I was
Speaker 2: in my early twenties. Those guys like.
Speaker 8: Maybe you find out what your guest thinks about it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you?
Speaker 8: What do you?
Speaker 2: Hey? All right, what do you feel about Power Violence
Speaker 2: that show? Do you agree with me? Or what you say?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: That that the youth that they kind of host that
Speaker 2: show with. It's it's infectious.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, it does feels like a like CBGB's in
Speaker 5: the seventies.
Speaker 2: CBGB's of course, stood for country Blues Country What country blues?
Speaker 8: CBGB's country bluegrass and blues.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, it's not very catchy. It's good that
Speaker 2: they made the initials be the title because that's not
Speaker 2: that's a horrible name for a club.
Speaker 1: Well, and also, didn't almost none of those things happen there?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like immediately, it's like, but hey, the talking
Speaker 2: heads are pretty good. Why don't we have them do
Speaker 2: everything but country, blues or bluegrass?
Speaker 8: It's what about TGI Friday?
Speaker 5: Is you cool with that name?
Speaker 2: Oh? I mean it depends on what day of the
Speaker 2: week i'm there. If I'm there on a Wednesday or Thursday,
Speaker 2: I'd like to speak to the management for false advertising.
Speaker 1: I'm an atheist, so I'm not interested in thanking God
Speaker 1: for anything.
Speaker 2: Karen, Hey, how does this work? Do I get a
Speaker 2: ride home too? Yeah? You bet? Do we tape on
Speaker 2: the ride home?
Speaker 5: Not?
Speaker 8: Usually?
Speaker 2: We can if you want, if you want to do
Speaker 2: a recap.
Speaker 8: Well, I just I'm just wondering how it works. I
Speaker 8: think this is great.
Speaker 2: I feel like while whenever I'm talking to you, Howard,
Speaker 2: I start to mimic your voice. Do you see me
Speaker 2: do that? If so, it's embarrassing, Well.
Speaker 8: I do the same with you.
Speaker 2: Here's my impression of Howard Kramer's impression fucked ow great
Speaker 2: black bean Berger something about a black bean burger bean bag.
Speaker 2: I one time I stayed at Howard's and all I
Speaker 2: brought was a skateboard. And I stayed at his place
Speaker 2: and I was hungry, and I'm like, do you mind
Speaker 2: if I have your morning Star black bean Burger? And
Speaker 2: what did I do? What did I did? What did
Speaker 2: I do? Kramer?
Speaker 8: Well, for the tortillas?
Speaker 5: You read?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm real embarrassed about this. Still.
Speaker 5: Well, okay, so I'm on the phone. Chris says, can
Speaker 5: I use the black bean Burgers? What did were you
Speaker 5: making tortillas?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just putting them on a tortilla. Okay.
Speaker 5: So he goes he's making them. I don't know. I'm
Speaker 5: just talking on the phone in my bedroom with the
Speaker 5: door closed. There's a knock on the bedroom door a
Speaker 5: few minutes later, and he says, I do you want
Speaker 5: some tortillas?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 5: But he's holding he's holding a plate that has a
Speaker 5: couple tortillas on.
Speaker 8: Like he said he was gonna make. But the play
Speaker 8: it is all dirty. I someone had already eaten off
Speaker 8: of it.
Speaker 2: I had eaten my portion of the food I'd made
Speaker 2: for both of us. I had eaten my portion off
Speaker 2: the plate, and then I'd given the rest of the
Speaker 2: food on the same plate to Howard, because that's the I.
Speaker 9: Was in a wh I anticipated was like, Yeah, I'm
Speaker 9: gonna make some food, and then he'd tell me when
Speaker 9: it's ready, and then they get off the phone, and
Speaker 9: then we both eat it. Yes, and then and I'm thinking, Okay,
Speaker 9: it's time to eat, but it's like he already ate
Speaker 9: and he's got my food on his dirty plate that
Speaker 9: he already used.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I grew up in a tag team meal eating household.
Speaker 1: How many years ago did this take place?
Speaker 5: Can we mention that right front of this is a
Speaker 5: jeep and their license plate is Austin aus t one
Speaker 5: and it spells it out and me and Chris and.
Speaker 1: Is that where the story took place?
Speaker 2: No? That was that was here at his residence where
Speaker 2: you've still how long have you lived there? You've lived
Speaker 2: in that place too long?
Speaker 8: I feel like I'll move when I deserve to.
Speaker 2: Oh, Oh, I loved that place. You find a good deal,
Speaker 2: the rent has controlled enough. You stay there, it's controlled,
Speaker 2: and it's like it's good. I could people watch there
Speaker 2: every day.
Speaker 1: What do you have the view of.
Speaker 5: Just like everybody going to Runing Canyon.
Speaker 2: There's a church, go to church.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I saw a guy brought his like eight foot
Speaker 5: anaconda onto the lawn of.
Speaker 8: The church yesterday.
Speaker 5: So he's just sitting there like looking at his phone
Speaker 5: while the snake like.
Speaker 2: Explores the area in front of the church.
Speaker 5: And at one point it crawled off the grass and
Speaker 5: kind of had like two feet of its head and
Speaker 5: the rest of it like going up the stairs.
Speaker 2: To the church.
Speaker 5: So all all that needed to happen was for somebody
Speaker 5: to walk out of the chapel and just see an
Speaker 5: eight foot anaconda head staring at him.
Speaker 1: What do you think he was bringing it to church?
Speaker 5: He I saw him, I've seen him there before. He
Speaker 5: kind of lets it go around on the grass and
Speaker 5: then I think, like a lot of those guys who
Speaker 5: bring exotic pets into the public, they wind up talking
Speaker 5: to people about.
Speaker 1: It, and yeah, they waited around for questions to be asked.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, snakes are real. Hey look at me pet. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like at iguana on your shoulder or a parrot. There's
Speaker 2: a guy with a parrot in Austin. I'm real sick
Speaker 2: of his presence.
Speaker 6: But that guy's kind of overdoing it with an eight
Speaker 6: foot I mean, that's a lot of snakes.
Speaker 8: I'm thick of it.
Speaker 2: It would be funny if like the priest came out
Speaker 2: of that church and saw the snake and had no
Speaker 2: choice but to use the Lord's name in vain as
Speaker 2: an exclamation. Jesus, what hey, I'm just trying to get
Speaker 2: my snake saved.
Speaker 8: Hey what about u KK?
Speaker 5: You don't have a mic?
Speaker 8: I've got she's mic?
Speaker 2: And what do you got? Hand? Told up to it?
Speaker 2: I got a price, is right? Long mic? Just like
Speaker 2: you know?
Speaker 8: Oh nice ye?
Speaker 2: Every time I talk into this, I feel like I'm
Speaker 2: about to give away a keya spectra here.
Speaker 5: You guys ever took notice of this statue in front
Speaker 5: of this.
Speaker 2: Bank, Yeah it looks it appears from this you know,
Speaker 2: I haven't up until now this one over here. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it looks like a bull.
Speaker 5: Take a bull, but it's like a monkey is riding
Speaker 5: it backwards or something.
Speaker 2: What what's that? What's that saying about Chase Bank?
Speaker 8: I guess freemasons or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't trust us with our money. We're batshit crazy?
Speaker 1: Is there really a monkey on there.
Speaker 5: It comes down there. Watch when we go by, I
Speaker 5: forget what it is. Actually he's down there. That's crazy,
Speaker 5: and it's backwards.
Speaker 2: Oh, let me look at this. It is it's a
Speaker 2: backwards guy. Yeah, it's a guy.
Speaker 8: There you go.
Speaker 2: It's like I wish it was I would maybe it's
Speaker 2: a monkey man.
Speaker 8: I think it's a lady. It's like a mermaid lady.
Speaker 2: Do you know what you're gonna do tonight at the
Speaker 2: comedy concert? Do you have some new bits.
Speaker 8: I'm gonna do some hot reads.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna I'm gonna make some decisions at the line
Speaker 5: of scrimmage, and I'm gonna I'm gonna take some swings
Speaker 5: at it.
Speaker 2: Oh good, let's see panata style.
Speaker 1: Have you doing a lot of sets lately?
Speaker 5: Not as many as I want. I want to do
Speaker 5: a lot more, But I've been doing like three or
Speaker 5: four a week.
Speaker 2: That's pretty good. Thought, that's pretty good numbers.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's pretty good.
Speaker 2: I feel like I'd be doing more sets myself if
Speaker 2: I didn't live at the damn beach. True, but I'm
Speaker 2: near the ocean, and you know I love the ocean.
Speaker 2: Did you know I loved the ocean?
Speaker 5: I did?
Speaker 8: I mean you got out there pretty quick.
Speaker 2: Yep. I love it out there. I just have to
Speaker 2: drive too much to the comedy.
Speaker 1: Shows, yeah, because they're all here, so three.
Speaker 2: Shows a week. To me, you're a professional comedian in
Speaker 2: my mind, in my eyes.
Speaker 1: Now, Howard, are you working on anything right now?
Speaker 2: Yeah? What are you working on? Oh?
Speaker 5: I'm working on an geo that Geo's doing comedy show.
Speaker 5: It's it's like a comedic take on world history, really,
Speaker 5: and I'm working on that, on writing and maybe be
Speaker 5: in it and be voice on of a of a
Speaker 5: weird character they have.
Speaker 2: That sounds terrific. That sounds interesting. Is it something you
Speaker 2: can't talk in detail about? I don't.
Speaker 5: Basically, it's like a sketch show and we go back
Speaker 5: to different points in history and talk about certain things developed.
Speaker 8: And that's probably all I could say.
Speaker 2: I like it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, even just a brief synopsis, I'm intrigued and I
Speaker 2: want to watch it.
Speaker 1: Did you do you know a lot about history?
Speaker 5: I have my own view on it and my own
Speaker 5: kind of timeline and stuff.
Speaker 2: Like I started of it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, like I'm interested in it.
Speaker 5: So I started like a document where I have like
Speaker 5: all the things I'm interested in.
Speaker 8: And then like when they came about and stuff.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, like a legal pound with some stuff on it.
Speaker 2: No, it's on my computer.
Speaker 1: I see.
Speaker 5: But you know, there's crazy there's crazy stuff that you
Speaker 5: don't think about that I think is interesting. Like what like, uh,
Speaker 5: there's no, there's.
Speaker 2: No there were.
Speaker 5: They didn't know about the dinosaurs until until like the
Speaker 5: eighteen late eighteen hundreds.
Speaker 2: Until they started finding bones and stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but they would find it but just wouldn't have
Speaker 5: any idea what it was.
Speaker 8: Or would just never put it together.
Speaker 5: But anyway, like for instance, when they signed the Declaration
Speaker 5: of the Independence.
Speaker 8: Like there was no such thing as dinosaurs. Nobody had
Speaker 8: ever heard of dinosaurs.
Speaker 5: So I don't know the way the speed at which
Speaker 5: stuff develops and is interesting to me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like they should re right the Declaration
Speaker 2: of Independence with dinosaurs in mind.
Speaker 8: Don't make fun of my belief.
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm not. I'm on board. I don't like those
Speaker 2: Christian people that think dinosaur bones were planted by the
Speaker 2: devil to test our faith. I think those are crazy people.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my brother went out with this fundamental, this Christian girl,
Speaker 5: and they were taught that the dinosaur bones were dogs,
Speaker 5: but they were just really much bigger back then.
Speaker 8: But they were still pets. There's still humans pets.
Speaker 2: Was that a thought? That was that just cooked up
Speaker 2: at her church? I've never heard of something so ludicrous.
Speaker 8: Yeah, she told my brother.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Wait did she believe it? Or she
Speaker 1: just told him that's what someone?
Speaker 5: I think it's like the kind of disconnect that just
Speaker 5: she was always told that and then didn't ever really
Speaker 5: examine it. But when you press her about like what
Speaker 5: do you actually believe?
Speaker 8: That's what comes out.
Speaker 2: Is he still with her? Uh? No? Is this your
Speaker 2: brother that you used to do in your act? Yes?
Speaker 2: And what did what did he sound like? You just
Speaker 2: like this straper should pay me? I should pay me?
Speaker 1: Is that something he said?
Speaker 8: I was like, hey, give that go give that girl
Speaker 8: a dollar.
Speaker 2: They should pay me.
Speaker 8: I banged these chicks by mistake.
Speaker 2: I want to meet your brother.
Speaker 1: Is your brother just a taller version of you, Howard?
Speaker 2: No, I'm taller. Howard's the tallest. He's the tallest. You're
Speaker 2: the tallest in your family?
Speaker 5: Right, Probably my little brother's half brother's probably taller.
Speaker 2: Huh. Isn't that curious because he's a little brother. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: very misleading.
Speaker 8: Opposite of truck.
Speaker 1: I just pictured your family as the oldest was the tallest,
Speaker 1: and then it went down like the stickers on the
Speaker 1: back of a car on.
Speaker 2: A no family fan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well hey, hey, uh yeah, well you don't seem
Speaker 5: to be taking a direct route.
Speaker 2: No, it's funny. When we're in the car, everything we
Speaker 2: do is for the sake of time, and as the
Speaker 2: crow flies, it makes no sense our routes.
Speaker 1: But we're just trying to you know.
Speaker 2: But the way a clock works, we are so good
Speaker 2: now at arriving exact you wanted to arrive there at
Speaker 2: a round nine forty five, correct.
Speaker 5: Yes, but that's when I thought it started at nine.
Speaker 5: But some of the stuff says it starts at nine thirty.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, so we don't. We're in no hurry. We
Speaker 2: could do a full lot. I mean we're fine either way. Okay, cool,
Speaker 2: because I want to spend more time with you.
Speaker 5: Oh goody Oh.
Speaker 1: Now, Howard are you the headliner?
Speaker 5: I don't know? Round probably is okay, he's got it.
Speaker 8: He's got on a TV show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he does have himself a.
Speaker 1: Program, so do you know? And yours is about real things?
Speaker 5: Yeah, mine doesn't premiere until probably September.
Speaker 1: Who else is working on that? Anyone that we know?
Speaker 2: Oh, Chip Pope, Yeah, you're writing partner.
Speaker 5: Chip Pope's the best Jimp Pope and Josh who's uh he's.
Speaker 8: On Silicon Valley okay.
Speaker 5: And these guys Krinskin al Schulers their show. They created
Speaker 5: Silicon Valley and they ran King.
Speaker 2: Of the Hill. So this is another Mike Judge who
Speaker 2: I've kind of gotten to know through Henry Phillips. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't say we're super tight, but he seems like one
Speaker 2: of the nicest most uh.
Speaker 8: Heath a nice cat.
Speaker 2: He is just a level yeah, because he's not it's
Speaker 2: it's a perfect type of fame. He doesn't even he
Speaker 2: is not that dick because he's not famous for his face.
Speaker 2: He's famous for his ideas and his voices.
Speaker 1: Well said, and he made up the best thing of.
Speaker 2: All time butt head, which you wrote on that what
Speaker 2: happened with the re I never saw the new episodes.
Speaker 2: I bet that was something that was fun and you
Speaker 2: were proud of and I never got to see.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were excited about it was fantastic, it was
Speaker 5: fun to do, And.
Speaker 2: Why the hell didn't that sweep the nation.
Speaker 5: Everyone paired up with something that didn't do good and
Speaker 5: then I think they just like went another way with
Speaker 5: it. It didn't like make a big splash for whatever reason.
Speaker 5: But it was really good. It was as good as
Speaker 5: the original.
Speaker 2: So you would just with Chip. And how do you
Speaker 2: get these jobs with Chip? I don't. I've never had
Speaker 2: a writing partner. Do you Guys just submit packets and
Speaker 2: it's like, hey, we're a package deal, and here's stuff
Speaker 2: we've done before, here's pilots we've done before, and you
Speaker 2: kind of apply for jobs together.
Speaker 5: Yes, that's how I would think.
Speaker 2: It would be absolutely insane if it were a different.
Speaker 5: Way.
Speaker 2: Then I just assumed it was so you peek it together.
Speaker 2: I did like a little puzzle that's easy to solve.
Speaker 1: Wait, did you guys live together?
Speaker 2: Chip? And I know?
Speaker 1: No? You and Chris?
Speaker 2: Oh, Chris.
Speaker 8: He stayed at my place.
Speaker 2: There was just the black being Tortilla week and it
Speaker 2: was dumb. You know when people come and visit here,
Speaker 2: Like I'm not excusing myself, but people don't realize this
Speaker 2: city is impossible to navigate without having a car. And
Speaker 2: that was at a point where I'd never rented a
Speaker 2: car before. It just brought a skateboard like an idiot
Speaker 2: and got dropped off at his house. And it's like
Speaker 2: and Howard was nice and he took me to shows.
Speaker 2: One of them was at a laundromat, and that's where
Speaker 2: I first met you, Karen. That's funny, where people were
Speaker 2: just doing their colors and their whites.
Speaker 6: It was a it was a truly working laundry mat
Speaker 6: with people that were not interested in watching.
Speaker 2: No one was sitting expecting comedy. They were just getting
Speaker 2: ready to fluff and fold.
Speaker 8: But Fred Ormison used to do it with us all
Speaker 8: the time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where a lot of Yeah, that was a
Speaker 2: great time. I was a little scared by the fact that,
Speaker 2: like that is the quintessential place where it's like, this
Speaker 2: is not where comedy belongs. When you're used to just
Speaker 2: doing it at the Velvet To Room in Austin, which
Speaker 2: is a comedy club. It's I'm like, oh, no, la
Speaker 2: is going to be hard. But it hasn't been that hard.
Speaker 2: I've been here for twelve years and it's been a
Speaker 2: breeze the whole time.
Speaker 1: It's it is kind of a lot like a laundrymat here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that's a really good way to cut your teeth.
Speaker 2: I'm just waiting to dry out.
Speaker 6: My favorite one night was Howard did his whole set
Speaker 6: with a British accent at the Yeah, and you kept
Speaker 6: calling it the laundro and it was making it.
Speaker 1: It makes me laugh to this day. You're one of
Speaker 1: my favorite comedians.
Speaker 2: Ah thanks to me too. And lately I've been doing
Speaker 2: these white guy reggae songs and I'm so jealous of
Speaker 2: your line. Three eleven is the nine to eleven bands.
Speaker 2: It's in my head and I just want no, I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna do. You know me, I'm a purist. Ideas
Speaker 2: are property, and I would never know.
Speaker 5: That's one of those jokes that someone else could come
Speaker 5: up with. Okay, like a signature, I accept the use
Speaker 5: of it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't have your total stamp, the Howard Caramer stamp.
Speaker 2: It's just great.
Speaker 5: Well, I mean you know what I'm saying. Some jokes
Speaker 5: are just jokes because you found them. They're not like
Speaker 5: your idea.
Speaker 2: And I believe Drennan, who Karen collaborates with often, he
Speaker 2: has a three eleven style song that is about nine
Speaker 2: to eleven. So in a way he didn't know he.
Speaker 8: Didn't know about your joy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. Well, now it hurts, doesn't It hurts
Speaker 2: more than me just doing that joke. He's not sitting here.
Speaker 2: He can't even defend himself. I just hung him out
Speaker 2: to dry, which is now a lot of people finish
Speaker 2: there to him.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's that's theft, straight up, Howard.
Speaker 2: Karen's never said straight up in her life.
Speaker 1: I thought it came out really naturally.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry I called it straight up.
Speaker 1: Not tell me?
Speaker 2: How uh?
Speaker 1: Do you really want to know your album?
Speaker 2: Your newest album, not Master of Perremonies? Yeah, Chris, I
Speaker 2: did a little drawing for it. So it was Howard
Speaker 2: in like a performance stance, like he's like he's rapping.
Speaker 2: It was his hip hop album for dragon Boy Sway
Speaker 2: and uh and all these women this is him just
Speaker 2: no one's heard about. He's like, I need you to
Speaker 2: do an illustration. It's like I'm I'm doing my rhymes.
Speaker 2: But the rhymes I have such a they they attract women,
Speaker 2: the pheromones, and they float to it like Yogi Bear
Speaker 2: floats to a pie cooling on the window sill, Like
Speaker 2: I sexually am a pie that these women want to eat,
Speaker 2: and they float towards me, kind of limply with their
Speaker 2: arms back. That was the concept and I did do it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was hard. It was actually hard. I mean that
Speaker 2: perspective wise to do women in the foreground floating towards him.
Speaker 2: But I think we nailed it. We did No Mater Ceremony.
Speaker 1: Is that the most recent album.
Speaker 2: No, that's ten years old.
Speaker 5: Back I did since then I did have a summer.
Speaker 8: Then I did Douche Minutia.
Speaker 5: Yeah, then I did have another summer. Then I did
Speaker 5: Tears on My Shaft, which has been delayed, but.
Speaker 8: Then I did some of this, some of that.
Speaker 1: Oh no, and why did that get moved ahead of
Speaker 1: Tears on My Shaft just because.
Speaker 5: We didn't finish it and we put it off, and
Speaker 5: then summer was coming and we're like, we got to
Speaker 5: do another summer album. So we rushed the summer album
Speaker 5: into put auction, and then that one had some hits
Speaker 5: on it. I'm doing a video with Lance Bangs for
Speaker 5: a song on there called Google Clues.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that guy.
Speaker 2: When are you doing that? That's amazing.
Speaker 5: We shot some of it and that We have an
Speaker 5: Indiego go campaign to get to get the rest of
Speaker 5: the case.
Speaker 2: Is indiegog kind of like Kickstarter except for more artsy
Speaker 2: performance stuff. Yeah, I'm just assuming I never even heard
Speaker 2: of it. I just I've never even heard of it.
Speaker 2: I just know how the world works.
Speaker 1: You guess it's context clues.
Speaker 2: I actually have a Kickstarter going for my motorcyb broken motorcycle,
Speaker 2: and it's actually raising money specifically for the kickstarter, so
Speaker 2: it's very confusing.
Speaker 8: The parts nobody likes my jokes.
Speaker 1: In this car You're dry. I totally thought it was real.
Speaker 2: I deliver. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So then which one which album is?
Speaker 2: What? Oh?
Speaker 1: God? That was totally a boy and a girl?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Oh And it was.
Speaker 6: Like I looked and said, that's a girl model standing there,
Speaker 6: and then she turned her head and it was a boy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, boy girl model.
Speaker 6: It's point being which one is a hegel.
Speaker 2: Seagull?
Speaker 5: And she go, thank you for asking me? That is on.
Speaker 1: Have a third Summer?
Speaker 5: No, that one's on the second one, which is have
Speaker 5: another Summer?
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, it seems like summer comes along often enough
Speaker 2: to where I never see you like scrambling during the
Speaker 2: other seasons, Like shit, what am I going to do
Speaker 2: comedy about sagain? I just I just like that summer
Speaker 2: keeps coming along, and then you don't have to get
Speaker 2: tired of doing that. It's like a treat every year.
Speaker 2: I will. Yeah, like, I have some jokes about Christmas
Speaker 2: that about you know, you know, being believing in Santa
Speaker 2: and not Jesus, And I'm like, I gotta wait. I
Speaker 2: can only do that every two months a year, but
Speaker 2: you're the summer is even longer. I guess what I'm
Speaker 2: saying is, I don't know what my point was, and
Speaker 2: now I'm in kind of a sweaty uh struggle to
Speaker 2: try and make sense.
Speaker 1: Just keep talking.
Speaker 2: I'll probably close it up here, probably close up that conversation. Uh, hey,
Speaker 2: both of you should come and do some of this year.
Speaker 2: I would love to.
Speaker 1: I saw you after some fest last year. Remember at
Speaker 1: Sarah's party.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah that's right.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Howard.
Speaker 1: Yelled at me about my gum choice.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's right. You had like winter.
Speaker 1: It was pretty awesome actually, because I've never really seen
Speaker 1: you drunk before, and you were shit face strong.
Speaker 2: I love it when he's drunk and he has opinions
Speaker 2: about football and how how it needs to be shot differently.
Speaker 1: And how sh like what gum, what are you talking.
Speaker 2: About so are you opposed to like new gums that
Speaker 2: elect the chocolate, chip mint or the peach or all
Speaker 2: these others.
Speaker 5: This was just a summer gum thing. We talk about
Speaker 5: summer gum, which is like you gotta have a gum
Speaker 5: and you chew it all summer.
Speaker 2: You stick with it, you can't.
Speaker 5: I mean it should be you know, not winter mint
Speaker 5: or winter fresh. It should be like try in tropical
Speaker 5: twist or strawberry bananas Ya.
Speaker 2: Not a peppermint that's a Christmas gum. Yeah, I understand that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's just like the joke.
Speaker 5: You just do it in the summer and sing with
Speaker 5: the gum.
Speaker 6: But do you keep just the one flavor like so
Speaker 6: that then that taste reminds you of that specific summer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the idea.
Speaker 2: It's a sensory tactile sensory trigger. It's also a kind of.
Speaker 5: About making each sum special. So you buy a new
Speaker 5: bathing suit, you don't start the summer in last year's
Speaker 5: bathing suit.
Speaker 2: Do you gotta make a thing of it? Do you
Speaker 2: practice what you preach with this? Do you go to
Speaker 2: the beach? How was your summer? Was it an active
Speaker 2: filled with summer type events?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, jet ski.
Speaker 2: What do you really write on jet skis what I
Speaker 2: did for the music video? Oh really, it's fun, right,
Speaker 2: Oh god, Yeah, I've.
Speaker 5: Done it before, but I don't do it regularly, but
Speaker 5: you know, I did it this past summer because of
Speaker 5: the video.
Speaker 2: See, I think technically an actual jet ski is the
Speaker 2: stand up kind with a swiveling handle thing in your foot. Yeah.
Speaker 5: We went and shot some footage at the World jet
Speaker 5: Skis Championships in Lake Havasu.
Speaker 8: Oh wow, And we had.
Speaker 5: Guys in Orangutan costumes. We had like the World Amateur
Speaker 5: champion dressed as in Arangul tank.
Speaker 2: Oh that's terrific. And they were popping back flips and
Speaker 2: really yeah, off of wakes.
Speaker 5: Or just still you know, the kind of those stand
Speaker 5: up kind you're talking about. Yeah, yeah, they can just
Speaker 5: kind of get some momentum going and then just start
Speaker 5: popping flips like one after the other.
Speaker 2: Because I don't like him. When I show up to
Speaker 2: some cabin, people got some watercrafts docked up and then
Speaker 2: they're like, do you want to go out on the
Speaker 2: jet ski? And it's not a jet ski, it's a
Speaker 2: ski do a thing that you sit on like a
Speaker 2: lazy man's snowmobile on the lake and it takes zero talent,
Speaker 2: zero balance, and I have no respect for it as
Speaker 2: a sport. Jet skiing, however, should be in the summer Olympics.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Vanilla Ice was a champion jets wasn't me.
Speaker 2: I think he was competitive. He was into motorsports vaguely.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like after the after the music career went downhill,
Speaker 5: he became champion jet skier.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's a perfect safety net, that's what.
Speaker 2: And then and it leads nicely into becoming a realtor.
Speaker 2: I think he flips houses now.
Speaker 1: Oh, I think he's almosh. Now that's the last that's
Speaker 1: the last one I saw.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I saw that episode where they were like
Speaker 2: not letting him touch the butter churn because of a
Speaker 2: neck tattoo that they they've had too much technology on it.
Speaker 1: There was he was impure. Oh, I love it.
Speaker 2: Tell us about your podcast who Charted? How's that been going?
Speaker 2: And how many years have you done it? Now?
Speaker 1: One of the great podcasts.
Speaker 2: Thank you guys, So fun, so great.
Speaker 5: We've been doing it over four years now, and it's
Speaker 5: me and Cool out beat the Eye Sock and we
Speaker 5: count down the top five of movies and music and more.
Speaker 5: And there's there's a lot of like.
Speaker 2: Sound effect prompts and things that the time I was
Speaker 2: on it, I did not know what I did not know.
Speaker 2: I had to throw a dart to match up with
Speaker 2: a sound effect. There was just a lot of you know.
Speaker 1: There's theme songs, all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 2: It's the opposite of our pack podcast, where clearly we
Speaker 2: don't have a plan, but how could we. We're in traffic.
Speaker 2: If we had a plan at some point it would
Speaker 2: get side.
Speaker 5: Swiped, like if who Charted Studio was moving down the street,
Speaker 5: we would never have any of that.
Speaker 2: So you are giving you are given credit to how
Speaker 2: difficult our podcast must be. Is that what you're doing
Speaker 2: right now? Seriously? Yeah? Yeah, because in the beginning, Karen
Speaker 2: and I would sit down, We're like, let's have talks.
Speaker 2: Are we gonna do an Alzheimer's podcast? Are we going
Speaker 2: to do one about moms? Are we gonna Oh, there's
Speaker 2: the man.
Speaker 5: Yes, it looks like a female model.
Speaker 2: It's hard to describe that person without seeming insensitive. But
Speaker 2: we used your podcast as an example, like yours or
Speaker 2: Borough Country. I have trouble saying that where it's totally.
Speaker 2: It's a format and yeah, yes, one man show of
Speaker 2: course for real.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I do a show Sclar Tissue. It's a one
Speaker 5: minute show about the scholar brothers and just for everybody
Speaker 5: to look for that.
Speaker 1: Where you performing that show?
Speaker 2: We got a theater right over here. And together they're
Speaker 2: in forensics and the scar tissue. It makes me think
Speaker 2: they're both like forensic cops.
Speaker 8: It's just more about the emotional depth of Oh.
Speaker 2: Okay, time, okay, not actually studying.
Speaker 5: Scars and portray both of them simultaneously, is it?
Speaker 2: How are they different? How is Randy and Jason? How
Speaker 2: are they different? One has glasses? Yeah, every once in
Speaker 2: a while, they'll both have glasses, and that's when I
Speaker 2: have to call them.
Speaker 5: Dude, them both have glasses. Let's want unless it was sunglasses.
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't like what she's doing. I had expect
Speaker 2: better behavior out of a Honda driver. Honda, of course
Speaker 2: a sponsor of do you need a ride? Do you
Speaker 2: need a ride? There's a question mark at the end
Speaker 2: of it, coward, that's like who charted? Who charted? Have
Speaker 2: you thought about saying it that way? You should? We
Speaker 2: wouldn't get mad. Yeah, you can who charted? Who charted. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the time I was on, we talked about the top
Speaker 2: charting poster designs. You really cover the game. It's not
Speaker 2: all just top charting.
Speaker 5: We haven't done that in years. You gotta come back on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd love to come back on.
Speaker 5: How we just do like music chart, movie chart, and
Speaker 5: then a chart about the guests.
Speaker 2: Oh, that would be exciting because the guest doesn't know.
Speaker 5: Well, we get the questions from Twitter, people tweet questions
Speaker 5: and then we asked the guests.
Speaker 2: That sounds exciting, but I was I was. I was
Speaker 2: asked by a fan to have you elaborate on the
Speaker 2: difference between We touched on it a little, but why
Speaker 2: you like the ocean Morten space? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Well, well I love the I mean the the ocean
Speaker 5: is real and you can go in it and it's
Speaker 5: filled with life.
Speaker 8: And space is interesting from a if it's math, if
Speaker 8: you know math, if you've got a lot of math.
Speaker 5: Uh huh, or if you make up stuff that's in.
Speaker 2: It, like Interstellar, it's just made up.
Speaker 5: It's math and rocks.
Speaker 8: YEA space is filled with math and rocks.
Speaker 2: Rock plus rock equals confusing world that doesn't exist. I
Speaker 2: don't like it, do you believe in.
Speaker 1: The theory that there are some waterways that connect, like
Speaker 1: connect the different continents underneath.
Speaker 5: The ocean connect connect them like you could get caught
Speaker 5: in a jetway that sends you to like an Africa's amazing.
Speaker 5: What are you think.
Speaker 1: Like they think that, like the there's theories.
Speaker 2: There's awkwarfers under the tectonic play like that.
Speaker 1: There's under under sea rivers that connect.
Speaker 2: You mean you mean.
Speaker 5: There's aquifers under the tectonic plate.
Speaker 2: That would be horrifying.
Speaker 5: I'm just thinking of you coming with that black beans.
Speaker 2: At at at like a ted talk. Yeah, you guys,
Speaker 2: there's aquifers underneath the tectonic what's that?
Speaker 8: What's that on the tectonic plates?
Speaker 2: That's the beans from the one that I just say,
Speaker 2: I decided not to wash my Tecitanic plate and I
Speaker 2: gave it to you dirty.
Speaker 5: Hey uh m hmm, Yeah, there might there might be.
Speaker 2: Oh come on, Karen, he was just about to elaborate.
Speaker 5: You know, it's like raging waters in San Dimas where
Speaker 5: you get on those water slides, they take it from
Speaker 5: the top to the bottom. Yes, like that, but it
Speaker 5: would take it from California to Somalia.
Speaker 2: Even though we're kidding. Nothing makes me feel more claustrophobic
Speaker 2: than imagining going down on underground water tube to another country.
Speaker 2: I would that's horrible. It will be hard to breathe.
Speaker 2: It would be very hard to breathe.
Speaker 5: But Karen, are you saying there's just faster currents that
Speaker 5: give you like a faster trip.
Speaker 1: No, I was kind of. It's like basically a theory
Speaker 1: that justifies or like tries to explain the possibility that
Speaker 1: the lackness monster could be real, because it's like it's
Speaker 1: like just the idea that because the ocean is so unexplored,
Speaker 1: that there could be these like these waterways that connect
Speaker 1: so that.
Speaker 6: Mm hmm essentially, So like that's how the explaining that
Speaker 6: like a Brontosaurus type animal could have lived this whole
Speaker 6: time undetected.
Speaker 2: That scares the hell out of me. But I mean,
Speaker 2: I don't like the unknown.
Speaker 6: I like it, that's what that's I like the ocean
Speaker 6: because it's all just yeah.
Speaker 8: Fine, because it's been there your whole life.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's anything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. If it didn't if it didn't affect
Speaker 2: me so far, chances are it's not gonna in my forties.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be forty next week, you guys, Oh god,
Speaker 2: it's the worst?
Speaker 1: Is it? Next week?
Speaker 2: That's the fifth O?
Speaker 1: Happy Birthday, Christ.
Speaker 2: No, I don't really want to celebrate it.
Speaker 1: I think you should.
Speaker 2: Howard's done a good job. Everyone everyone assumes Howard is
Speaker 2: twenty eight. He just no one knows his age. I've
Speaker 2: never asked his age. I would not be able to
Speaker 2: predict or assume his age younger or older than me.
Speaker 2: I just know that I've seen pictures of him in
Speaker 2: high school and it's like, wait a minute, did you
Speaker 2: drink from a fountain of some kind?
Speaker 1: Is he dressed like the Brady Bunch?
Speaker 2: He's happy?
Speaker 1: Did he get to high school in seventy four?
Speaker 2: Striped sweater's long hair, beautiful main affair. He's got some
Speaker 2: headshots on his own refrigerator.
Speaker 1: You've been inside his apartment?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, right right right by that headshots not up
Speaker 5: there anymore. But I know what you mean.
Speaker 2: It was like like twelve fifteen years ago. But it
Speaker 2: was a beautiful headshot. But and if anyone I watched
Speaker 2: it recently on YouTube, if anyone hasn't seen Austin Stories,
Speaker 2: it was such a great ahead of its time TV show,
Speaker 2: was so funny, so subtle. There was nothing like it
Speaker 2: at the time and no one was ready for it.
Speaker 2: And it's I always think, like, man, if that was
Speaker 2: on TV right now, well, there were people that say, oh,
Speaker 2: I've seen stuff like this before, but at the time,
Speaker 2: no one had seen anything like that. And it's so
Speaker 2: funny watch. Yeah. Yeah, Kramer is the same age in
Speaker 2: it somehow, but Chip is like this, Chip looks so different.
Speaker 2: He's like almost borderline chubby. And then there's no yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: he used to not be like a fitness guy and
Speaker 2: shape yeah yeah. And Beard and Matt Bearden was just
Speaker 2: a child in it and now he's like a bearded dude.
Speaker 2: It's just so funny to watch, knowing all these Austin guys,
Speaker 2: and also just.
Speaker 5: How many of the places have been torn down and
Speaker 5: other stuff is rebuilt like it's some people's email. Just
Speaker 5: about how it's like a time capsule of late nineties Austin.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I showed up in Austin after you had
Speaker 2: already come to uh La to strike it rich, and
Speaker 2: I just the difference having visited there a couple of
Speaker 2: months ago. It is, uh it's unbelievable. It's just a big, giant,
Speaker 2: fancy city with Jetson's buildings, space buildings, but it's still
Speaker 2: the same place. I love that town me too. I'm
Speaker 2: glad I started comedy there me too. They did keep
Speaker 2: it weird, they did. They did a good job of
Speaker 2: keeping it weird. We were at a riot comedy festival
Speaker 2: here in downtown Los Angeles and there was a keep
Speaker 2: it Weird Portland versus Austin show and I thought it
Speaker 2: was blasphemous that you weren't on it, Howard, Why were
Speaker 2: you not on that show?
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's funny because I did do that festival last year,
Speaker 5: so I'll do it again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't do it. I didn't even know about
Speaker 2: that show.
Speaker 5: So now that I've heard that, I would say, yeah,
Speaker 5: it would have.
Speaker 8: Been a fun one to do.
Speaker 2: It was really fun. It was fun. It was fun.
Speaker 2: This year, I'll do it. I'll do it next year. Yeah,
Speaker 2: maybe I'll do it too.
Speaker 5: You're always two weeks from a fest in the comedy.
Speaker 2: YEA early on you, it was like DJ Spumonty or something.
Speaker 2: He wasn't calling him. What were you calling Dragon Boys? Right?
Speaker 5: The first time I ever did it, I didn't know
Speaker 5: what the name was.
Speaker 8: And it was I was.
Speaker 2: You were I was? I was no, I was Automatic Flavor,
Speaker 2: the backup dancer, and we were at the velvet room
Speaker 2: and my I mean, this was Howard being nice and
Speaker 2: he's like, it's funny when you dance. But it was distracting,
Speaker 2: I think to people listening to his lyrics because I'm
Speaker 2: flopping around sweating. Oh thank you well one time one
Speaker 2: of my Oh wow, that started her love affair with me.
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think she cares for me at all.
Speaker 1: Did you? Guys were like matching.
Speaker 2: Kind of But I did you know I broke my arm?
Speaker 2: You broke your arm in that show? Yeah. I was
Speaker 2: doing the diving worm and it's.
Speaker 8: Okay, you hurt yourself. I didn't know you broke.
Speaker 2: I did something weird and I was doing the diving
Speaker 2: worm and my legs hit the wall. I didn't realize
Speaker 2: how close I was to the wall, so I basically
Speaker 2: jumped in the air and did kind of a plank
Speaker 2: against the wall and landed on my arm. And it
Speaker 2: hurt at the time, but then it kept hurting for weeks,
Speaker 2: and then it started to get swollen and I went
Speaker 2: to the doctor and they're like, you have a broken arm.
Speaker 2: You've had a broken arm for a month. Weren't you
Speaker 2: in a lot of pain? I was like, no, not really,
Speaker 2: and then the yeah, yeah. The doctor just looked at
Speaker 2: me and he said, God, I admire you.
Speaker 1: Yeah that really happen.
Speaker 2: It all did, except for the doctor admiring me, just
Speaker 2: called me an idiot.
Speaker 8: I Well, I'll tell you.
Speaker 5: The great thing about you is that you will sacrifice
Speaker 5: your body for comedy.
Speaker 8: And I remember just.
Speaker 5: How much you just immediately just full on went for it.
Speaker 2: Well it's funny. I don't I kind of shy away
Speaker 2: from physical comedy. Now you're older, you should. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: guess that is it. That's back to me another reminder
Speaker 2: that I'm forty. Thank you. But it also just makes
Speaker 2: me think of Jerry Lewis, and you know I used
Speaker 2: to like him, but you know, I'm not much of
Speaker 2: a Jerry Lewis fan anymore.
Speaker 1: Do you think you're outgrow.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll still cross my eyes for a laugh. Though.
Speaker 1: I was really into the Garfield comics when I was twelve.
Speaker 1: They don't hold up mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I was into BC. There're two different schools. I don't
Speaker 2: understand those Garfield people. I was into BC and Dagwood
Speaker 2: bumpstead a billboard. Wow, look at that. It's a cool billboard.
Speaker 2: Are you guys doing the last comic standing? Did you
Speaker 2: go out for that? It's going on apparently? Yeah, it's real.
Speaker 2: It's uh, it's real vague, but I went in and auditioned.
Speaker 2: I had a good time at the Hollywood improvisation. Yes,
Speaker 2: it was quite fun. It's less pressure now. There isn't
Speaker 2: cameras swooping around. They're just like, just do comedy, no pressure,
Speaker 2: Who cares anymore? That's kind of the way there, and
Speaker 2: so it was really fun. Who cares? Who sees what happens?
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll be on a billboard someday. Guys. Then now's
Speaker 2: Now's where you're like, Yeah, I think you will be.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you could be the next elizas Flessender.
Speaker 2: I don't think, mainly because I'm able to pronounce my
Speaker 2: own name, I cannot pronounce her name. Try it, Eliza
Speaker 2: Shack Here, I can do it, Eliza Here we go,
Speaker 2: third times to charm Eliza's who there we go. I
Speaker 2: finally nailed it. Your name. Well, we're gonna pull up
Speaker 2: to power violence soon, right, isn't it coming up.
Speaker 5: Whoa man, I've used up all my comedy here.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, you'll think of something else. You want
Speaker 2: just to just be taken to the nearest snapping spot.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do the show too. Oh you are I
Speaker 2: forced my way onto it. Oh cool, I'm not going
Speaker 2: to bump you. I will just Oh, I guess we
Speaker 2: got to ride home together?
Speaker 8: Doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we we You're in safe hands. This is fine.
Speaker 2: I like driving around talking. Isn't it fun? Is it
Speaker 2: weird at all that you're just talking to the back
Speaker 2: of our heads. No?
Speaker 5: I often think, like in the car, like, oh, is
Speaker 5: a waste of time? It could be podcasting right now.
Speaker 2: That's how we came up with the idea. Actually, Karen
Speaker 2: came up with it single handedly. What's twelve Monkeys? That's
Speaker 2: a TV show based on the popular movie. But yeah,
Speaker 2: but unfortunately it's on the sci fi network Tactics. Oh well,
Speaker 2: fortunate for you. That was when sci Fi was a
Speaker 2: better network because it wasn't spelled funny, it was actually
Speaker 2: spelled correctly, right, Karen, what's up? Do you have any
Speaker 2: thoughts on it? Like when I I.
Speaker 1: Was listening to Mark Maren's what the fuck.
Speaker 2: Dub dub dubbed the fuck. But I uh yeah, I
Speaker 2: uh you were terrific on scare tactics. Hey, dikes, there
Speaker 2: was there was a SPECIs that was a lot of
Speaker 2: bumps right there. That's what you get. What do you
Speaker 2: need a ride? You get? Oh? God, the la They
Speaker 2: really need to spackle those bumps. That time where you
Speaker 2: were like putting on lipstick and you were you scared
Speaker 2: the hell out of some guy. It felt bad for him. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that was good. That was called toilet Full of Scary.
Speaker 2: It's on YouTube, really, toilet full of Scary.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what were you doing with lipstick?
Speaker 2: Well, basically it was a thing where.
Speaker 5: I played a guy who was a homeowner who called
Speaker 5: the plumber h oh, and then the plumber was one
Speaker 5: of our guys too, but the guy working for the
Speaker 5: plumber was like the victim.
Speaker 2: Oh, like his helper, Yeah, his helper.
Speaker 5: So they come in to do my house and I'm
Speaker 5: just kind of weird and despondent and I'm sitting out
Speaker 5: in the front room and they go, where does the
Speaker 5: bathroom And I'm like it's in the back.
Speaker 2: Then, oh, I think this guy's doing one of those things,
Speaker 2: one of the slow cross the street things.
Speaker 8: Yeah he wants to get hit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, deserves it with those capri pants.
Speaker 1: It was a cool satchel Oh look skateboarding.
Speaker 2: Oh that guy's doing at old school.
Speaker 5: But then uh so, yeah, anyway, they come in and
Speaker 5: I'm weird. And then the plumber says to the kid
Speaker 5: like once they get back by the bathroom, like, wow,
Speaker 5: that guy's weird. What's going on with him? I don't know?
Speaker 5: And then they the plumber says to the kid, hey,
Speaker 5: check behind the shower to see if the see if
Speaker 5: the faucet's dripping, And the kid opens up the shower
Speaker 5: curtain and the bathtubs filled with blood a dead body,
Speaker 5: real life maggots crawling on the body.
Speaker 2: And they see it.
Speaker 5: They freak out and then they go, we gotta get
Speaker 5: the hell out of here. And then as soon as
Speaker 5: they run out of the bathroom back into like that,
Speaker 5: there's a big back.
Speaker 8: Bedroom right there.
Speaker 5: I am in the bedroom blocking their way out, wearing
Speaker 5: a dress.
Speaker 2: Putting on lipstick, putting.
Speaker 8: On lipstick, and I got a weird wig on.
Speaker 2: And it is scary, even though you're in on it
Speaker 2: as the viewer, it's so scary, scary, scary how how
Speaker 2: important was it, like it would be for me at
Speaker 2: the end of that How important was it for you
Speaker 2: to talk to that guy and say, hey, I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: it's all a big joke. I hope you're not, because
Speaker 2: he was legitimately scared shitles.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, no, they were. It was important.
Speaker 5: We would do that with all of them, but some
Speaker 5: of them, even after it was over, we're like, they
Speaker 5: just kind of didn't want to look at you or
Speaker 5: be around you.
Speaker 8: Because you freaked them out so bad.
Speaker 5: You kind of put them in a fight or flight
Speaker 5: death situation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because they just made a high pitched lady shriek.
Speaker 5: And some of them would be high too, because it
Speaker 5: would just be like some kid who like smokes weed anyway,
Speaker 5: so he's like, fuck it, I'm going to help a plumber,
Speaker 5: Like I'll just like smoke out and then go do
Speaker 5: this job.
Speaker 2: And then he's so paranoid and freaking out. Yeah. There
Speaker 2: was a girl.
Speaker 5: We did one where it was a girl helping out
Speaker 5: at a party being catered at a house and then
Speaker 5: she goes into the room where the meat is supposed
Speaker 5: to be and there's a guy tied up getting hacked.
Speaker 2: That oh my god, and she was high.
Speaker 5: I could tell by her eyes, and she was just
Speaker 5: so bought into it and so petrified that even after
Speaker 5: it was over, she just couldn't look at me.
Speaker 2: How did they get people to sign like you just
Speaker 2: made it full of yourself, screaming and freaking out.
Speaker 5: Oh, I go because they go, hey, you were great,
Speaker 5: Oh my god, you were so great. But they tell
Speaker 5: them how great they were, and then they go, hey,
Speaker 5: do you have a friend you want to set up? Oh,
Speaker 5: they immediately get you onto setting somebody else up.
Speaker 2: And that was part of the episode. Who do you
Speaker 2: want to set up?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Oh, and they get they just they quit. They forget
Speaker 2: that they were so scared, and they just get excited
Speaker 2: about scaring their step mom.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh that's great.
Speaker 5: They some of them probably not. I don't know if
Speaker 5: they get like for the for the jobs that it
Speaker 5: would always be like they might it would be like
Speaker 5: fifty bucks an hour, if you know, to help this
Speaker 5: plumber for two hours.
