Speaker 1: The nik Gliser podcasts.
Speaker 2: Here I am, It's Nicky Glazer podcast.
Speaker 3: Welcome to it. It's just me today in studio with
Speaker 3: this no Name dog. Brian Frangie is back from gallbladder surgery.
Speaker 3: Still back from that, feeling good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, tour, gallbladder tour surgery, doing my tour of my
Speaker 1: organs being removed.
Speaker 2: We're promoting it right now, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we recorded it and it's gonna come out later
Speaker 1: this year on Netflix.
Speaker 2: And yeah, did reg just in Kelly this morning?
Speaker 1: Yes, they were. They were rough. I mean they hated.
Speaker 1: I think they wait, isn't real? Just dead?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's why it was rough.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was sitting there. He didn't he didn't give.
Speaker 2: Me his ashes.
Speaker 3: Still have a show where he people just assume what
Speaker 3: he might have asked people and those singers he might
Speaker 3: have had.
Speaker 2: He was amazing and he is missed.
Speaker 3: And I got to meet him one time because we
Speaker 3: were doing this thing on our MTV show, Me and
Speaker 3: Sarah Schaeffer, where we were just trying to touch as
Speaker 3: many celebrities as possible. That was like our goal and
Speaker 3: it was pre me too, because this would not have flown.
Speaker 2: And I was never inappropriate.
Speaker 3: With my touching in terms of like the only times
Speaker 3: I got like on the chest with it or something like,
Speaker 3: I felt really bad about doing it. And I only
Speaker 3: did it because it was like almost like that's the gimmick,
Speaker 3: and I felt kind of pressured into it. And I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna say I did it like I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: it's it's I had my own constitution.
Speaker 2: I could have not done it.
Speaker 3: But I remember one time a guy got annoyed with
Speaker 3: us touching him, but it was a funny bit because
Speaker 3: generally I just like his head or something like.
Speaker 2: The whole thing is not good. I didn't like doing
Speaker 2: any of it, to be honest with me.
Speaker 3: While on the show, we just try to wein Sarah
Speaker 3: C who can touch the celebrity the most times while interviewing,
Speaker 3: And it's so like the premise is disgusting and wouldn't
Speaker 3: make it past a thought in a bright head now,
Speaker 3: I would never even land in a U in a
Speaker 3: meeting live.
Speaker 1: With it.
Speaker 2: That is true.
Speaker 3: I want to get I I want to have her
Speaker 3: in an interview both emotionally and physically. I'm dying to
Speaker 3: get an interviewed by Ruberry were because she I know
Speaker 3: how fucking charming she is. I've been interviewed by her
Speaker 3: on Zoom and even then I felt molested.
Speaker 2: And that's crazy that she was.
Speaker 3: She sent someone actually who was in a hazmat suit
Speaker 3: to touch me in the ways that she wanted to
Speaker 3: hold my hand in that moment. Now I did her
Speaker 3: shows on Zoom and it's not the same. So I
Speaker 3: want to be in person at some point.
Speaker 1: Speaking of hazmat suits, that's the first time I was
Speaker 1: ever on TV was in a hazmat suit on Not Safe.
Speaker 2: WHOA.
Speaker 3: That's so full circle And I think I actually when
Speaker 3: I was grasping for that reference and that when I
Speaker 3: said it just now, I like kind of was like
Speaker 3: I've heard this recently, Like I was pulling from something
Speaker 3: i'd heard, which is like what you do? I mean,
Speaker 3: that's what I learned, Like great stand up is just
Speaker 3: paying attention to detail and having it on call for
Speaker 3: your brain when you need it, paying attention to funny
Speaker 3: things like I've recently started doing that where I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 3: this is why people who read a lot do well
Speaker 3: with just being orators. They're just you're good at picking
Speaker 3: up words, you're good at communicating. You you but I
Speaker 3: think there's a way to bypass it, which is I'm
Speaker 3: just trying to pay more attention to funny words and
Speaker 3: just references and going like, Okay, when you need a
Speaker 3: store in a strip mall in a bad neighborhood, boost mobile,
Speaker 3: that's a funny reference, Like did you just cement memorize
Speaker 3: boost mobile right now? When you need it, just grab it.
Speaker 3: Because a lot of times I'll be like, Okay, I
Speaker 3: have all the parameters of what this perfect reference would be,
Speaker 3: but my mind can't fill in the blank. And like,
Speaker 3: for me, that's why improv scares me so much, because
Speaker 3: sometimes my mind really will not serve up anything, not
Speaker 3: just like not something unfunny, literally nothing, and that's too
Speaker 3: scary to me.
Speaker 1: Zip.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's we've done. Brian was trying to like get
Speaker 2: me into improv games when we were.
Speaker 1: Writing I was trying to get you into no.
Speaker 2: No, sorry.
Speaker 3: I requested that he get me into it because I
Speaker 3: was like, I am insecure about not being good at improv.
Speaker 3: I want to be better. Is it a muscle that
Speaker 3: you can learn? Because it's so impressive to.
Speaker 1: Me, And that's the conceed is that it is a
Speaker 1: muscle you can learn.
Speaker 2: Otherwise do you want to learn it?
Speaker 1: It is, It's definitely helpful. We were just doing some
Speaker 1: improv exercises to get you like warmed up, to see
Speaker 1: if that helped it all, which I don't even think
Speaker 1: it did.
Speaker 2: It did well, it totally did.
Speaker 3: I often remember your improv game that I kind of
Speaker 3: play with myself sometimes that I invented that you invented,
Speaker 3: which is so good. You should stare with people. This
Speaker 3: is just a good way to get your brain working.
Speaker 1: Yes, I invented an improv game called bagage.
Speaker 2: I don't want to play it because it's so embarrassing,
Speaker 2: how bad I am.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, we'd have to play it. But it's
Speaker 1: called bag of Fun. I invented it in you know,
Speaker 1: it's a derivative of other for it.
Speaker 3: Next time I pay, I have to do a couple
Speaker 3: hours past. I'm in a Google doc on this improv game.
Speaker 3: So what's the what's the game?
Speaker 1: I just want to say I did invent this. I
Speaker 1: invented this in like two thousand and four. So if
Speaker 1: you're thinking like, oh, but in twenty sixteen, I did
Speaker 1: this with my college imprograms, no, no, no, no, no, I
Speaker 1: invented this it's called bag of fun, and you're just
Speaker 1: holding a bad and a fake improv bag obviously, and
Speaker 1: you come out and someone goes, hey, what you got there,
Speaker 1: and you go, I have a bag of fun and
Speaker 1: they go what's in the bag of fun? And then
Speaker 1: you just pull something out of the bag and you
Speaker 1: say what it is, and that's the start of it.
Speaker 1: You go, oh, I got it literally anything. I've got
Speaker 1: a carburetor, I've got a toothbrush. And then someone who's
Speaker 1: running the game if you keep doing things that are similar,
Speaker 1: like if I have a car seat and a car
Speaker 1: manual in a car, then you go no car things.
Speaker 1: Then you oh, I've got a dog and a cow,
Speaker 1: and you know, no animals, no, no animal.
Speaker 3: Yeah, just giving you challenges of where your brain can
Speaker 3: go creatively on the fly when you have literally anything
Speaker 3: to choose.
Speaker 1: From, anything to choose from. And then you just start
Speaker 1: giving parameters, which almost makes it easier. You go things
Speaker 1: that start with f y, things that you can find
Speaker 1: in Texas, things that you would find in a classroom,
Speaker 1: and then you can say double time. Then everyone starts
Speaker 1: clapping in your face and you have to go twice
Speaker 1: as fast as you pull out tooth things. You go,
Speaker 1: I've got a cow and a jockstrap. I've got a
Speaker 1: pullover necklace and a pullover sweater and a jockstrack. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is a very.
Speaker 3: Jotra exercise for me to do because I really, I
Speaker 3: mean people, I do think I'm funny, and I do
Speaker 3: think I'm a great writer, but I need a little
Speaker 3: bit of time.
Speaker 2: And it's not always the like.
Speaker 3: The thing is, it comes up fast when it comes
Speaker 3: up like nothing really, whatever way you write, whether it's
Speaker 3: you come up with something hilarious at a Starbucks in
Speaker 3: front of a computer, or you come up with something
Speaker 3: hilarious on stage, it's still just a thought that shows
Speaker 3: up in your mind. So it doesn't really to me
Speaker 3: where it get, where you get it, it doesn't really matter.
Speaker 3: It's not like that's amazing to come up with something
Speaker 3: on stage, and it's not amazing to come up within
Speaker 3: his Starbucks. It's like the same thing to me anyway.
Speaker 3: But I was really scared to play this game, and
Speaker 3: I still am because my bride brain, Brian, one of
Speaker 3: the worst things that's ever happened to me is when
Speaker 3: my brain like I had to be doing like kind
Speaker 3: of to improv in the moment and a huge audience
Speaker 3: at the iHeart Music Awards and for with Usher and
Speaker 3: and he like handed. I took the mic because he
Speaker 3: was trying to get me to dance, which is humiliating,
Speaker 3: and so I begged him to is this whole story?
Speaker 2: Have I told it before?
Speaker 1: No? I don't think so.
Speaker 2: Oh I should do it after the break.
Speaker 3: But I really I had a moment on stage in
Speaker 3: front of so many people that I care about my
Speaker 3: not looking stupid front and not to mention a gigantic pact.
Speaker 3: Where was it? It was somewhere. It was some center,
Speaker 3: you know, like in front of like thousands of people.
Speaker 3: I mean it's probably a six thousand theater. But like,
Speaker 3: do you recall any moments where your brain completely failed
Speaker 3: you in a situation where you know, Kevin Hart thing
Speaker 3: when I couldn't give what to say? Like do I
Speaker 3: say a movie that is his that I know?
Speaker 2: Or not?
Speaker 3: Like in that moment, and like, I don't like being
Speaker 3: in those positions. They're so painful to me, so I
Speaker 3: try to avoid them at all. Do you have any
Speaker 3: ones that stand out to you?
Speaker 1: It was in the Los Angeles Dolby Theater May twenty seventh,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3: Wow, okay, yes, Dolby Theater. What's the capacity on that?
Speaker 3: For me, Google knows to look up capacity of theaters,
Speaker 3: because that's all.
Speaker 2: I want to know.
Speaker 3: When I type in a theater name that's still in,
Speaker 3: they go, do you mean capacity? And then they know movies.
Speaker 3: If I type in a movie name.
Speaker 2: Running time thirty three hundred.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, that's I was not I was half right
Speaker 3: like my dad. Okay, yes, but I don't want to
Speaker 3: get into it. But when have you felt that way?
Speaker 3: And you're like where your brain failed.
Speaker 1: You all the time, which is why in a way that's.
Speaker 3: On a scale similar to that in terms of your life,
Speaker 3: like a big moment.
Speaker 1: Like so I have to downgrade the scale because there's
Speaker 1: no moment where of course what ussher?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, But it's all relative.
Speaker 1: When I interviewed for the Lower Decks that Star Trek
Speaker 1: cartoon in front of the Rick and Morty executive producer
Speaker 1: and the people who made Star Trek Voyager, I fucked
Speaker 1: up that. Wow so bad? How I just well, I
Speaker 1: think I've talked about it before, where I I didn't
Speaker 1: know anything about Star Trek and they asked me but
Speaker 1: there was also moments in that interview where I just
Speaker 1: totally like it was also because I was dealing with
Speaker 1: like psychosomatic brain fog symptoms and I was so so
Speaker 1: that happens to me a lot. And I was just
Speaker 1: sitting there and they were like, what's your favorite cartoon?
Speaker 1: And I just like got like really small. I got
Speaker 1: really small in the couch and I was like, well,
Speaker 1: I don't want to say. I really felt like I
Speaker 1: sounded like that, Oh God, I don't want to say,
Speaker 1: and then.
Speaker 2: Oh, no, it sounds like a character.
Speaker 1: And the answer really at the time was Rick and Morty,
Speaker 1: And I felt weird saying Rick and Morty because the
Speaker 1: guy who executive produced Rick and.
Speaker 2: Morty is one who that guy is dying for you
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: Here's how embarrassing it. Here's what happened. I go, I
Speaker 1: don't want to say, and then the guy goes just
Speaker 1: say it, and that made it even more embarrassing because
Speaker 1: he knew what I was gonna say. He knew I
Speaker 1: was being sheepish. And I really thought I had a
Speaker 1: chance to get that job because I had a pre interview.
Speaker 1: This is the second round, Oh damn, and my first
Speaker 1: interview was just with the.
Speaker 2: EP, you already had it in your mind.
Speaker 1: Yes, I had it in my mind. And my interview
Speaker 1: with just the EP of Rick and Morty went so well.
Speaker 1: It went. We started talking just about like life and
Speaker 1: death in that interview, it got it got way beyond
Speaker 1: like what's your experience. And then when I showed up
Speaker 1: for the second interview, I was sitting in the waiting
Speaker 1: room and uh, they were like, we got to call
Speaker 1: in the next candidate. And then the EP goes, oh,
Speaker 1: Brian like he was like joking around with me, Oh wow,
Speaker 1: and then he was so like loose with me. Yeah
Speaker 1: that the the Star Trek people said, oh, do you
Speaker 1: know him already?
Speaker 3: Well, this is so relatable, like feeling just this is
Speaker 3: like after a good first date and you're like already
Speaker 3: there your boyfriend in your head and like you're just
Speaker 3: you got it locked down and then you just.
Speaker 2: Did shit shit and I ate shit.
Speaker 3: You story like this too that I want you to
Speaker 3: tell somebody that was so good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well the Daily Show. Yeah, well yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: there's that too. I mean that those are the two
Speaker 1: biggest like regretful career moments in my life. Fucking up
Speaker 1: those two interviews.
Speaker 2: But you know, like it led you to where you are.
Speaker 3: Is there any part of you that like realizes that
Speaker 3: now and says, oh, I'm grateful I didn't get that
Speaker 3: job because I goes that way.
Speaker 1: If I got the Daily Show in when was that,
Speaker 1: like twenty fifteen, it was the first year that Trevor
Speaker 1: Noah was the host. I my life would be completely different.
Speaker 1: I'd still be in New York probably, but.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't have met Ali.
Speaker 1: No, I wouldn't have I wouldn't have worked on your show.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean like your life, Yeah, we wouldn't. I
Speaker 3: would still know you because I knew you at that point,
Speaker 3: but yeah, yvery everything would be so different.
Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe it would have been better. I don't know.
Speaker 2: It has hard to imagine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, maybe.
Speaker 2: Throw in your life to see what that life would
Speaker 2: have been like right now? Would you?
Speaker 1: No? No, Because you know, I know people who write
Speaker 1: for The Daily Show, and now that John Stewart's back,
Speaker 1: it's a lot like more like fun, but like it
Speaker 1: does become like how am I going to get out
Speaker 1: of here? It's like writing for SNL. If you write
Speaker 1: for it for too long, well, man, I eventually you're like,
Speaker 1: how do I get out of this?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's such an honor to I think that
Speaker 3: probably the best part of getting jobs is when you get.
Speaker 2: The call that you've got it before you have to
Speaker 2: start doing it.
Speaker 3: That's always as it is for me, because then the
Speaker 3: pressure's on and the pressure don't stop till it's over.
Speaker 3: And if you get a writing job, that pressure is
Speaker 3: never over and I can't mine get released. You know,
Speaker 3: the roast happens, and I perform, and then it's done
Speaker 3: and I get to like, oh, And I'm sure that's
Speaker 3: what writers feel like when they get to go on
Speaker 3: these breaks eventually and let loose. But it's like they
Speaker 3: know what's looming, whereas I don't really know what's looming
Speaker 3: next in terms of hard work, Like I see some stuff,
Speaker 3: but I can't I don't know the exact people involved
Speaker 3: or whatever it is, and so.
Speaker 2: That would be really hard.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But so it in nine to five where you
Speaker 3: see the same people everywhere every day.
Speaker 1: That's what I keep reminding myself every time. I feel like,
Speaker 1: I am so lucky to be married to someone who
Speaker 1: has a regular job, because every day I see someone
Speaker 1: who has to suffer through these endless zoom calls with
Speaker 1: bullshit people talking about bullshit things for fucking all day
Speaker 1: Monday through Friday, having to go into an office. It's
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky. I feel like the.
Speaker 3: DJ is soul sucking desk jobs. Oh yeah, doubles DJs. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and people we know, you know, most listeners have them. Yeah,
Speaker 3: or they're stuck at home with their kids all day long. Sure,
Speaker 3: shout out to those people too. Speaking of, but there's
Speaker 3: an out because your kids eventually grow up. No one
Speaker 3: sees retirement really in the future, and it's just like
Speaker 3: this till like.
Speaker 1: So far off and well nowadays you can't even retire
Speaker 1: you don't make enough money. But speaking of, I.
Speaker 2: Think only rich people can retire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, like athletes.
Speaker 3: You hear that word in athletics, but because they're forced
Speaker 3: because of their bones or.
Speaker 1: If you're Daniel da Lewis, I yeah, he retired. He
Speaker 1: did Phantom Thread, which was pretty good.
Speaker 2: And yeah, Phantom Thread was amazing.
Speaker 1: He's it's it's amazing because he's in it.
Speaker 2: I think, oh, yeah, it was. It was.
Speaker 1: His counterpart was also good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she was good. They were sick.
Speaker 3: It was like a relationship based on taking care of
Speaker 3: a person with the other person's release.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The reason why I didn't love it was because
Speaker 1: I found it until the very very end of Phantom Thread.
Speaker 1: I found it to be predictable because it's just it's
Speaker 1: like misery. It's a classic unhealthy to any A Graham type.
Speaker 2: I forget the very very end.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the very very end is kind of surprising,
Speaker 1: and Daniel day Lewis at his best that that face.
Speaker 2: I might have to revisit it then because of this
Speaker 2: end is quite surprising. I don't remember.
Speaker 1: The very very end is quite surprising.
Speaker 2: Does it involve soup.
Speaker 1: And involves mushrooms? Ah?
Speaker 3: Yes, I think I remember it. They try and they
Speaker 3: go to Fish at the Sphere.
Speaker 1: They go to Fish at the Sphere and Daniel day
Speaker 1: Lewis takes a and throws it into the sphere and
Speaker 1: the spear splits open, and I was like, this is.
Speaker 2: Such a cool graphic for the you two show that
Speaker 2: we saw.
Speaker 1: Oh god, amazing. They could have done anything.
Speaker 3: And I got to go back to the sphere. I
Speaker 3: am I'm not swearing the sphere off.
Speaker 1: No, No, we can't swear. We can't because it's it
Speaker 1: is cool.
Speaker 3: Believe I didn't go back last I guess the Grateful
Speaker 3: Dead were their last time and I was performing with Nights.
Speaker 3: I was there, but I should have extended it to
Speaker 3: see what was. I got to check what's at the
Speaker 3: Sphere next time, because I'm gonna give the Sphere a
Speaker 3: second chance.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get.
Speaker 1: If not the Sphere's fault, the Sphere is now.
Speaker 2: You know, the amazing screens is miss Taylor Swift.
Speaker 3: I'm so excited to go see her screens because it's
Speaker 3: some of it's transcendent and like and this new stuff
Speaker 3: for the Tortured Poets that's in her live stuff. The
Speaker 3: new album that she's added to the Era's tour is
Speaker 3: so graphics are so good, and she does this really
Speaker 3: cool thing with this. I'm gonna swift out for a second.
Speaker 3: I know you don't care, but like, I just have
Speaker 3: to let this out. I'm so excited to see it
Speaker 3: because I'm about to see her five times in Europe
Speaker 3: and I can't wait to see.
Speaker 1: So where you going.
Speaker 3: I'm going to Dublin, then I'm to Amsterdam, and then
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do Amsterdam three times, and I go to
Speaker 3: Zurich and ended on Zurich, but I would be going
Speaker 3: two times in Dublin and two times in Zurich, except
Speaker 3: I have a gig that got booked before I got
Speaker 3: these tickets, so I couldn't get out of.
Speaker 2: It, which I'm excited to do because I don't need
Speaker 2: to see your six times. I only needs your five,
Speaker 2: okay now in America America that I'm flying straight from.
Speaker 3: I'm going straight from Arizona to Dublin to meet my
Speaker 3: parents and then we're going to see Taylor that you know.
Speaker 1: So your parents are going with you to Europe.
Speaker 2: Yes, and so.
Speaker 3: And I'm taking my mom to every show, all five
Speaker 3: and then my dad is going to go at least one,
Speaker 3: and I think he'll probably be like, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to two. And so I think Chris is flying into
Speaker 3: Zurich to go to the other one and where Switzerland, Switzerland,
Speaker 3: which I just kind of found out. It wasn't really
Speaker 3: clear on that. But that's only one. I have an
Speaker 3: actual ticket to the other four kind of in in
Speaker 3: I think I'm like ninety nine percent sure they're good
Speaker 3: to go, but I'm a little bit worried because they're
Speaker 3: not in my hand yet. So I'm going over there
Speaker 3: a little bit like, Okay, this might just be a
Speaker 3: trip to Ireland where everyone's dressed in swift stuff and
Speaker 3: I'm not going to the show, but I will sell
Speaker 3: some my body to get in that night. There's no
Speaker 3: way I won't go. I'll find some way. It might
Speaker 3: be the first time I've ever turned tricks. Yeah, but no,
Speaker 3: you can't buy one online. There's none available for the
Speaker 3: Dublin shows to buy. Second, I think it's really a
Speaker 3: good thing going to get one.
Speaker 2: I will. I have an in with I get.
Speaker 3: I buy special tickets that are for like it's it's
Speaker 3: a thing, a connection I got that gets lets me
Speaker 3: buy regular price seats in certain sections and so but
Speaker 3: it's through like every every new city has a different
Speaker 3: third party kind of managing that ticket situation.
Speaker 2: So I got a call from an irishman the other
Speaker 2: day and he's.
Speaker 3: Like, so, I've got you down for you know, three
Speaker 3: tickets on the twenty ninth and then two on the thirtieth.
Speaker 3: And I was like, it's actually gonna be no tickets
Speaker 3: on the twenty ninth. And I was like, and I'll
Speaker 3: take two on the thirty if that that's all you have.
Speaker 3: But I would love to have three for the thirty
Speaker 3: fifth if possible, and he was like, oh, we can
Speaker 3: make that happen. I'll call you right back. And I'm like, really,
Speaker 3: oh my god, great, okay, well, I'll be on my phone.
Speaker 3: So he's like, we'll call you on right back from
Speaker 3: this number.
Speaker 2: And then they haven't called me back and it was
Speaker 2: a day ago, and so I'm just like, yeah, and
Speaker 2: if you call them back, it's just not a it's
Speaker 2: an operating thing.
Speaker 3: So I'm just like, he sounded very nice. He sounded
Speaker 3: in control, and I'm going to trust that her. What
Speaker 3: she has going on there, they don't fuck around. They
Speaker 3: hire the best people and it's gonna get done. So
Speaker 3: I'm not worried, but I will. Yeah. But anyway, so
Speaker 3: there's just this great moment that she has with her
Speaker 3: screen where it's like, because the the lyric is like
Speaker 3: and I leap from from the why can't I think
Speaker 3: of the I levitates down your street crash the party
Speaker 3: like she's talking about, and I leap from the I
Speaker 3: leap from the gallows in I levitate down your street
Speaker 3: and crash the party like a circus freak, as I shriek,
Speaker 3: who's afraid of little old me. But okay, So the
Speaker 3: graphic has this girl like levitating out of a window
Speaker 3: and then going down the street, and then Taylor in
Speaker 3: that moment like leans on this pole that she's able
Speaker 3: to like lean forward Michael Jackson's style, you know, where
Speaker 3: her legs are back, and it looks like she's literally
Speaker 3: levitating in the same way the art on the screen does.
Speaker 1: And it looks so fucking cool.
Speaker 2: And I'm so excited.
Speaker 3: And when we get back, we are going to talk
Speaker 3: about Travis showing up on stage with Taylor because I
Speaker 3: I don't have time to do a special Taylor Swift episode,
Speaker 3: Gush says, So I'm gonna fit some in here, which
Speaker 3: I already have and I appreciate Brian free listening, so
Speaker 3: it will be right right back up with this. All right,
Speaker 3: we're back, So, h Taylor Swift on stage this weekend. Travis,
Speaker 3: do you find out about did you know that this happened?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: No, you are you on? Have you been on Instagram
Speaker 2: the past three days?
Speaker 1: But I'm on the same Instagram as you.
Speaker 3: Isn't that so interesting because it is literally as if
Speaker 3: the president just got shot. In terms of how many
Speaker 3: videos I have and footage and people talking about it.
Speaker 2: I'm not kidding you.
Speaker 3: It is like it's a global phenomenon to me, And
Speaker 3: so I obviously didn't think you were getting all that
Speaker 3: I'm getting. I'm not that I've gotten nothing, but I
Speaker 3: thought you would at least have heard one or two things.
Speaker 1: About I'm getting served right now. Is the hawk Tua girl?
Speaker 3: Yes, she's getting served to me, but not as much.
Speaker 3: I was slightly late to that. What about the Stanley Cup.
Speaker 3: I'm not seeing anything on my feet about that, but
Speaker 3: that seemed like a big deal last night, and I
Speaker 3: was like, interesting that I'm not getting any news.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, I don't get any hockey news news. I
Speaker 1: get the most esoteric football news, which is weird that
Speaker 1: I'm not getting the Travis Kelcey thing.
Speaker 3: Timberlake's d U I was September eleventh, to my phone,
Speaker 3: it was, it really was. I got I got an
Speaker 3: amber alert sound to it like that. No, that his
Speaker 3: arrest was like did you see my post on my story?
Speaker 3: It was like seven posts in a row of his face. Wow,
Speaker 3: on my story or on my feed, on my main feed.
Speaker 3: It's like they know what I want.
Speaker 1: They interrupted your programming.
Speaker 3: But okay, so so Taylor's it's a big deal to us.
Speaker 3: Swifty's Brian because Taylor Swift just for the first time
Speaker 3: tagged Travis in a post, which is like, obviously they've
Speaker 3: been together, but that's like the official, like he's my
Speaker 3: man kind of thing. It was like happened the other
Speaker 3: night when the Royal family came to see her in Wembley,
Speaker 3: and so she tagged him on a post and I
Speaker 3: guess that was a big deal. I didn't notice it,
Speaker 3: but in hindsight, people were like.
Speaker 2: This was a big weekend for them.
Speaker 3: So then the next night she's on stage and she
Speaker 3: does this whole song the Smallest Man who Ever Lived,
Speaker 3: which the Smallest Man who Ever lived Bridge, which I've
Speaker 3: been complaining about on the gush Fest, is the thing
Speaker 3: I wanted to sing with. Any bestie who ever had
Speaker 3: a meet and greet and wanted to sing the Smallest
Speaker 3: Man who Ever lived with.
Speaker 2: Me Bridge, I would do it. I didn't realize how
Speaker 2: long it is.
Speaker 3: So I did have a girl take me up on
Speaker 3: this this weekend and it was so fun and it's
Speaker 3: on my TikTok but y TikTok. Yeah, I'm posting on
Speaker 3: tich A lot of things are happening on TikTok. I
Speaker 3: don't even know what's happening over there because my friend
Speaker 3: Emily is running it. She works for my social media
Speaker 3: company and she's amazing and I trust her, and so
Speaker 3: she just films me and makes videos and I don't
Speaker 3: even watch them. I'm just like, I'm kind of watching
Speaker 3: some of them because they're actually really funny and random.
Speaker 3: But she just shoots like slice of life stuff and
Speaker 3: then puts it together.
Speaker 1: And so, do you have people following you filming you
Speaker 1: on the road now?
Speaker 2: I did this weekend for the first time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hold on on, Okay, let's put a pin in
Speaker 1: that and talk about the Taylor Swift thing first. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So yeah, anyway, so I filmed a reaction video to
Speaker 3: watching it actually that I think is up on TikTok
Speaker 3: as well. But so I waited to watch it because
Speaker 3: I'm getting all the news alerts and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: this will be good to film a reaction shot because
Speaker 3: my passion right now is watching people react to Taylor Swift.
Speaker 3: It's like, I know, as a Swift ye, it's kind
Speaker 3: of a there's a group of us who like to
Speaker 3: watch this shit. So I was like, oh, I'll make
Speaker 3: some reaction stuff. So I watched it, but with sitting
Speaker 3: with it for a while, it's okay. So she sings
Speaker 3: the Smallest Man who Ever lived, and she at the
Speaker 3: end of it, she she's pretty much marching to battle
Speaker 3: to be like with waving a white flag, being like,
Speaker 3: I want to save this relationship. I still love you
Speaker 3: even though you're like and why did you end it?
Speaker 3: I don't even want you back. I just want to know.
Speaker 3: Like she's kind of like, I guess she's surrendering. I
Speaker 3: know I'm never gonna get you back, but give me
Speaker 3: some fucking answersrender. Yeah, she's so, she's but I'm wondering
Speaker 3: what she's surrendering to, Like she's surrendering to the fact
Speaker 3: that it's she's never gonna get him back, or so
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is, and that she doesn't
Speaker 3: even want him back, but she still wants to know.
Speaker 3: If you know, was wrecking my was wrecking my I'm
Speaker 3: mixing up the lyrics girls because for some reason I
Speaker 3: can't think of them when i'm it's not playing. But
Speaker 3: was was wrecking my sparkling summer?
Speaker 2: Was that the goal?
Speaker 3: And I don't even want you back. I just want
Speaker 3: to know. Uh, I just now I'm fucking out. Paul
Speaker 3: Lyrics and Swifties are so disappointed me. But anyway, so
Speaker 3: the bridge is, she's finally she's marching to battle and
Speaker 3: then she gets shot and then she's like, oh and
Speaker 3: she It's so dramatic, it's so amazing.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see it.
Speaker 3: I literally I'm going to It's gonna be the most
Speaker 3: excited my body has ever felt in my life seeing
Speaker 3: this bridge for the first time live and then five
Speaker 3: times in a row. I don't I think it's gonna
Speaker 3: be our gasmic to watch because I'm so obsessed with it.
Speaker 3: So she gets shot once and then she's like and
Speaker 3: then she is you know. Then she falls to her
Speaker 3: knees and she's like begging him, like what's going on?
Speaker 3: And it doesn't but it also doesn't matter, and she's like,
Speaker 3: and I'll forget why, you know, I forget anyway, It's
Speaker 3: it lends on her. Sorry, I'm all over the place
Speaker 3: because now I'm so embarrassed. I can't remember the fucking lyrics.
Speaker 2: I really am.
Speaker 3: But then she falls down and she goes, uh, I'll
Speaker 3: forget but I'll never forgive the smallest man whoever lived.
Speaker 3: And she then she dies and so then after that
Speaker 3: her these guys like in circus costumes come and pick
Speaker 3: her up. Yeah, and she's like literally like roof like
Speaker 3: she looks like she's roofied, like she's limp and it's
Speaker 3: so cool because it's yeah, and then they pick her
Speaker 3: up and then they carry her back to this platform
Speaker 3: and then the music kind of shifts and she starts.
Speaker 3: They start getting her dressed because she has another performance,
Speaker 3: and they kind of like they're like doing funny things
Speaker 3: with her hands and they're like keep flying like picking
Speaker 3: her up, like you've got to get dressed, and they're
Speaker 3: dressing her for this next thing. It's not a sexual thing.
Speaker 3: It's really just like she's just like, no.
Speaker 2: I don't want to.
Speaker 3: She kind of wakes up and she's like I don't
Speaker 3: want to go, and they're like you gotta go. Come on, snap, snap,
Speaker 3: and they kind of do a dance to shore, like
Speaker 3: put on your smile, and she's like I don't want to,
Speaker 3: and then they push her out and then she's like, oh,
Speaker 3: fighting it, and then she just turns on a dime
Speaker 3: and is like.
Speaker 2: I can read your mind.
Speaker 3: And then she sings a song I Can Do It
Speaker 3: with a broken Heart about performing when you're depressed and
Speaker 3: when you're broken up with and sad, and then she
Speaker 3: hits her mark and she's killing it. But that part,
Speaker 3: Travis Kelcey comes out and he's the one that carries
Speaker 3: her back, and he's the one that's telling her like,
Speaker 3: you gotta dance like this, and you can do it,
Speaker 3: come on, do it, and then he powders her face
Speaker 3: at the end, which was all the Swifti's figured out
Speaker 3: is a reference to the line about how the color
Speaker 3: drained from her face from all these guys. There's a
Speaker 3: lot of lyrics about the color in her face with
Speaker 3: this one relationship and how it changed, and then she's
Speaker 3: talking about her next love and how they put the
Speaker 3: color back into her face, and so he puts blush
Speaker 3: on her face. So we're like, oh my god, this
Speaker 3: fucking poet. She even made her boyfriend do like a
Speaker 3: comedy thing that involved a reference to the lyric.
Speaker 2: She's so good.
Speaker 3: And then he's the one that pushes her out there
Speaker 3: and it's so cute, and all the videos there's like
Speaker 3: a moment where you know, he's playing a character of
Speaker 3: like a guy getting hit this doll ready to perform,
Speaker 3: but at one point he goes to like put the
Speaker 3: blush on her, and he like goes he with his
Speaker 3: other hand, he almost touches her waist, but then he realizes,
Speaker 3: like he's that's not the character, but he's so used
Speaker 3: to like touching her waist that it's so cute, and like,
Speaker 3: I'm just like, I I love that they did this.
Speaker 3: I wonder what led what was the discussion that led to,
Speaker 3: like what if you came on stage with me? Like
Speaker 3: who pitched it? I mean, I know it was mastermind,
Speaker 3: I know miss Swift came up with it, but like
Speaker 3: I want to know that conversation of like would you
Speaker 3: do it? And he's like yeah, I'd be down, and
Speaker 3: she's like, yeah, we could do it, So then you'd
Speaker 3: oh and then you'd maybe do my makeup. Hmm wait,
Speaker 3: maybe you could put blush on me because the color
Speaker 3: back into my face.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, this is so good.
Speaker 3: And I could see her like churning up ideas and
Speaker 3: he's like I'm down, and then he fucked by the way,
Speaker 3: he fucking nailed it, Like he gave such a great performance.
Speaker 3: Would love to see this guy on Broadway. Like he
Speaker 3: can act. He was comedic, he was prince charming. It
Speaker 3: was just such a good look for him. He shined
Speaker 3: like a star and then he let her go shine
Speaker 3: like a star. And then there was footage of him
Speaker 3: watching her later and just being so in awe of her,
Speaker 3: And it was just a great weekend to be a swift. Ye.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Tess. You ever had a boyfriend on stage
Speaker 1: before with other musicians and no.
Speaker 3: I mean she's performed live with John Mayer and people
Speaker 3: speculate maybe they were like talking at that point, but
Speaker 3: that doesn't count. Like there's never been this like playful,
Speaker 3: we're together energy performing together. I mean, that's insane, it's
Speaker 3: serous and I'm so excited about it. Wild it's so cute,
Speaker 3: And that's exactly the kind of thing like I liked.
Speaker 3: I know what she's feeling, like, like it's so fun
Speaker 3: to perform with your boyfriend who you're in love with
Speaker 3: and like be like, I've done that before with Chris
Speaker 3: and I get to do it so frequently and it
Speaker 3: makes it so much more fun and it makes it
Speaker 3: so much better when your boyfriend is there at the
Speaker 3: show like you just are more dazzling.
Speaker 2: I know, I always am sure. I hope he's at
Speaker 2: the Dublin show.
Speaker 1: You like being watched, Yeah, I do.
Speaker 3: I like I like when someone is going, wow, she's amazing,
Speaker 3: like not even laughing. I just want people to be
Speaker 3: like wow, I think that's the is that my god?
Speaker 1: Did?
Speaker 2: I just yeah?
Speaker 1: Ah?
Speaker 2: I want awe.
Speaker 1: Yeah. You want people that you know look at her thinking,
Speaker 1: oh this is really sad.
Speaker 2: That's the worst.
Speaker 1: Oh god, no, the worst. There's worse than all. There's
Speaker 1: worse than all.
Speaker 2: Ah.
Speaker 3: There's lots of odds you can get of like, oh fuck,
Speaker 3: I can't believe she said that. Oh I I feel
Speaker 3: sorry for you. I've definitely gotten the all.
Speaker 1: But it's worse than that. It's worse.
Speaker 3: The worst thing you can get, I can't even think
Speaker 3: of what it is.
Speaker 1: The worst thing you can get is silence where they
Speaker 1: don't even really know what to say. Dude, after the
Speaker 1: show's over, and you're like you want them to say
Speaker 1: that was that was a rough one, or you want
Speaker 1: them to say like that was amazing, and.
Speaker 2: They said nothing after and not during the joke.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like after usually it's after, but just like that
Speaker 1: I don't even really know what I say because we're
Speaker 1: both thinking the same thing.
Speaker 2: I get the fuck out of there.
Speaker 3: I've never had a set where I can't look people
Speaker 3: in the eye afterwards, and if I do, I just go,
Speaker 3: that was horrible, And I tell everything they don't have to,
Speaker 3: and I yeah, I bring.
Speaker 1: The no no or they say and they go, oh no.
Speaker 2: They go that crowd sucked.
Speaker 3: Yeah it was you know this room, the laughs get
Speaker 3: caught in the carpet.
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, they didn't. They got caught inside.
Speaker 1: Keep it full of flatties right now.
Speaker 3: Because I didn't get them out. Yeah. Yes, there's always
Speaker 3: something to blame. Toddglass used to say, like when you
Speaker 3: go into a club every club weekend, like there's always
Speaker 3: an excuse why the numbers aren't good. They're like, oh,
Speaker 3: the fairs in town this weekend, Like you're completing with
Speaker 3: the fair. There's always a fair in town, the Strawberry Festival.
Speaker 3: You know, that's why. Don't don't take it personally, which
Speaker 3: is a nice thing for them to say.
Speaker 2: I mean, sometimes could just make you fair rain this morning.
Speaker 1: Whatever.
Speaker 2: No, there's always an excuse why it's not you. Sometimes
Speaker 2: it is you, you know, sometimes and that's.
Speaker 1: Okay, you're just fizzling and you're not good for that,
Speaker 1: for that for that region.
Speaker 2: I heard this girl Aurora.
Speaker 3: She's like a musician that I heard on Stern once
Speaker 3: and I really haven't looked into her since, but she's
Speaker 3: very like ethereal and like maybe she just like seems
Speaker 3: of this of space.
Speaker 2: Like from another planet.
Speaker 3: Had a thunburgie but like pop star but just and
Speaker 3: she was talking. She's Norwegian too, so maybe that's it too.
Speaker 3: She has the you.
Speaker 1: Know, she's got a weird accent accents, but she sings.
Speaker 3: Beautifully and she has this really good David Bowie cover
Speaker 3: of ground control. So maybe that's why I think of
Speaker 3: space when I think of she the only.
Speaker 1: Now I can now it's making sense. She literally then
Speaker 1: I heard her talking.
Speaker 3: I haven't heard of her for years, but I just
Speaker 3: saw a clip that was like she was like they
Speaker 3: were like, but who are you?
Speaker 2: And she's like, I don't care who I am. It
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It's not up to me who I am.
Speaker 2: I am not. I can be anyone any day, I
Speaker 2: can change any time. I can be impressive one day,
Speaker 2: I can be disappointing the next I can be some
Speaker 2: who does something very bad, and then someone who does goes,
Speaker 2: I don't want to do that anymore. Every day I'm
Speaker 2: someone who this is none of my business who I am.
Speaker 3: It was something like that, and I was kind of like,
Speaker 3: that's an interesting concept that enough psychedelics might get into
Speaker 3: and deprivation tanks or how do I get there?
Speaker 2: And do I want to be?
Speaker 1: You're gonna take a bunch of shrooms and d MT
Speaker 1: and release yourself from your ego. And I think people
Speaker 1: like that are quite frankly and sufferable.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I liked I would like to be around this girl,
Speaker 3: But I also like someone who has a lot of
Speaker 3: humility and a little bit of shame about themselves because
Speaker 3: it makes them a little more interesting to me, and
Speaker 3: you know, you want to be around.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But she's like saying, like, I don't even she
Speaker 1: doesn't have an identity. When you talk to her, you're
Speaker 1: not talking to a person.
Speaker 2: She gets it because it is true. We're all like
Speaker 2: just machines, all have.
Speaker 1: Yes, well, you and her will get along. I would
Speaker 1: be like, can you just stop. I would think she's
Speaker 1: an act because it makes her feel superior to everyone
Speaker 1: else to be like I'm beyond ego and it's like, well,
Speaker 1: aren't you fucking special?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't really encounter that many people like that, and
Speaker 3: I guess there's a reason for that because they probably
Speaker 3: are insufferable. But I was thinking about Yeah, so like
Speaker 3: just that, I guess the clips I'm being sent on Instagram,
Speaker 3: I really now I'm gonna pay attention to this because
Speaker 3: I don't like the fact that you did not even
Speaker 3: see that Travis Taylor thing, because it's all I saw,
Speaker 3: and that's not fair that that's all they're giving me.
Speaker 2: What did you like? What am I missing out on?
Speaker 3: And do I I just bought the Washington Post because
Speaker 3: I'm like, stop, Nikki, stop not paying fifty dollars a
Speaker 3: year because there's a paywall support journalism read news Like
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm I'm done not paying for I'm gonna
Speaker 3: buy every fucking magazine now that anytime there's a paywall,
Speaker 3: I'm buying it. If it's like a good institution of journalism,
Speaker 3: I have to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that. That's been happening to me a
Speaker 1: lot too, And it's like you used to get it
Speaker 1: for free on the Internet. And I think that's why
Speaker 1: the put back is there, because you're like, wait, now
Speaker 1: you're going to make me pay three dollars, and it's
Speaker 1: like it's three dollars, whereas if it was always three
Speaker 1: dollars you would have you would be like whatever, who cares?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it should be people need to make a
Speaker 2: fucking living writing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it makes sense. I don't know if it's I
Speaker 1: don't know if it's worth what they're charging, like if
Speaker 1: it's a sustainable uh business, but we need it. It's
Speaker 1: requirement for democracy is the press, the free press?
Speaker 2: Yeah, why isn't a tax support? Why isn't it like
Speaker 2: tax supported.
Speaker 1: Like public Well, there's NPR, there's PBS. No, the BBC,
Speaker 1: which is BBC, which is publicly supported in the UK,
Speaker 1: is the most trusted news source out of any news
Speaker 1: source regulated.
Speaker 2: If the government does pay for it.
Speaker 1: They just have honor. They just don't. They don't. BBCs
Speaker 1: is perceived as in the latest polls.
Speaker 3: How do they let them have honor if they're controlling
Speaker 3: the pucket book.
Speaker 1: Because they're not in they're not for profit. Their goal
Speaker 1: is not to shock you or to appease you.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying if the government is paying for something. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the government seems to be like, I want it done
Speaker 3: the way I want to do it. So I how
Speaker 3: does that not get corrupt?
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's a little bit corrupt.
Speaker 3: But yeah, Like the government is going to just be like,
Speaker 3: we're gonna let the road guys build the roads where
Speaker 3: they want to build them. No, we're going to tell
Speaker 3: them that this is the highway we want and the
Speaker 3: direction we wanted to go in.
Speaker 1: I mean, you got to imagine that everyone's corrupt and
Speaker 1: the whole world's corrupt, and the BBC is no different,
Speaker 1: but they do at least perceive themselves as just delivering
Speaker 1: the facts and not delivering all of this extra analysis
Speaker 1: that kind of pushes you towards.
Speaker 2: Words that can make you completely feel differently about the thing.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, and no comments.
Speaker 3: I love when a news organization doesn't have a common section,
Speaker 3: like mostly because they don't have any subscribers to generate discourse.
Speaker 3: But I like not like looking for comments and I'll go, no, oh,
Speaker 3: you don't get any. Nikki has to make your own
Speaker 3: opinion up about this one. What are you gonna do, Nikky?
Speaker 1: You try to find that crutch of the comments like
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what a feel it, and then you
Speaker 1: try to find them when there's on your back. I
Speaker 1: gotta do it myself.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I go to Reddit and I go which which
Speaker 3: place do I trust to discuss this?
Speaker 2: Like who's talking about this right now? Yeah?
Speaker 3: It's like which is good? You seek what other people? Like,
Speaker 3: what's the cultural thought about this? But it is interesting,
Speaker 3: like we're talking about actually the Will Smith slap the
Speaker 3: other night and how like we each on our own
Speaker 3: were like we were all like alone when that happened.
Speaker 3: It was kind of late at night most people were
Speaker 3: when they saw it live, and like what your initial
Speaker 3: thought was? And then then you start just in who
Speaker 3: you called first, and like how did you process that
Speaker 3: insane insane thing?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Bad Boys Too is out now, So
Speaker 1: I think Will Smith's been forgiven.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's that's all. It just takes a little
Speaker 3: bit of time. Yeah, but everyone can come back. Jt'
Speaker 3: he's gonna be a He's gonna be better than he ever.
Speaker 1: I fucking hope. So, because I am really I am
Speaker 1: really anti driving under the influence. I think if you
Speaker 1: do that time you should have your head cut off.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 3: I also empathize with addicts that don't have the abilities
Speaker 3: to make good decisions because they have a disease, and
Speaker 3: unfortunately that disease can land them behind a wheel. And
Speaker 3: we would have compassion for other people's diseases that made
Speaker 3: them do crazy things, But alcoholism seems to be like
Speaker 3: it's your You're in control of it, and a lot
Speaker 3: of people aren't. So I do have empathy if that's
Speaker 3: the way this is going. Also think it's the worst
Speaker 3: thing ever. And if you're rich enough, you should have
Speaker 3: a plan in place that if I ever drink, I
Speaker 3: don't drive. Yeah, but you know, he could be just
Speaker 3: like pulling back a little bit and trying to make
Speaker 3: cuts budget cuts here and there.
Speaker 2: We don't know what his life is like.
Speaker 1: Yeah he's got a fifty seven.
Speaker 2: Dollar Uber black.
Speaker 3: But yeah, what were we saying about JT or what
Speaker 3: was I think it was saying something before him?
Speaker 1: Yeah that they just getting your ideas from the comments
Speaker 1: section and going on Reddit and finding out where I
Speaker 1: gotta just.
Speaker 3: Get new things up in there. I don't want to
Speaker 3: see any more facial surgery suggestions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're your algorithm is now getting boring, So all
Speaker 1: you have to do.
Speaker 2: Is going boring, it's getting it's ruining.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're in a you're targetting.
Speaker 2: Me in a way that I'm like, it's bullying me.
Speaker 1: You're in an echo chamber, just like everybody else. The
Speaker 1: way you get out of the echo chamber is easy.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, Will Smith's slap. I want to know
Speaker 2: where you were, That's what I was talking about.
Speaker 1: Oh where I was? I was just I was with
Speaker 1: my wife. I think I was sitting.
Speaker 2: Did you think it was a bit at first? That's
Speaker 2: what it was.
Speaker 1: With my wife because she was texting me about it, like,
Speaker 1: can you believe that you just that that just happened.
Speaker 1: I don't know where I was when this, but I
Speaker 1: do remember thinking I'm on Chris rock side no matter
Speaker 1: what happens.
Speaker 2: Because I did you think it was a bit at first?
Speaker 2: Is my question?
Speaker 1: Right? I definitely felt like it was. It must be
Speaker 1: a bit at first, But then.
Speaker 2: The slap was how many seconds?
Speaker 1: Five seconds? Because Chris Rocks after the slap, After the slap,
Speaker 1: when he's walking up there, I'm like, this is a bit. Obviously,
Speaker 1: there's no way that this is.
Speaker 3: There was not one second I thought it was a bit,
Speaker 3: And I don't know why. I'm proud of that, but
Speaker 3: I just knew not one second. I can't believe people
Speaker 3: even did because for me, maybe let's say it was
Speaker 3: one second. Instantly I go, this is bomb, this is
Speaker 3: not good. Yeah, and neither of these people would ever
Speaker 3: allow something not this not good to happen.
Speaker 2: I was just like this, this can't happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, the audience certainly was tricked because the audience
Speaker 1: was still laughing even after the slap, which is really
Speaker 1: that's crazy that you can see like an assault happened
Speaker 1: and be like ha ha ha No.
Speaker 3: Because I think a lot of people thought it was
Speaker 3: a bit an even post slap for a while.
Speaker 1: But you see a real slap. I mean that was
Speaker 1: a vicious slap.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Even if it was a bit, it's like will like chill,
Speaker 1: it was just a bit.
Speaker 3: It was oh yeah yeah yeah like that, or it
Speaker 3: was a good like I'm sure they could fake.
Speaker 2: Slap that good. I mean they, I mean, don't or
Speaker 2: is that all just like done post.
Speaker 1: I guess that could potentially fake a slap back, but
Speaker 1: it really that seemed like vicious. And even if it
Speaker 1: was fake and it was that vicious, yeah, I'd still
Speaker 1: gasp instead of laughing clap.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: It was just a moment that I was like, oh
Speaker 3: my god. I like I remember I compared it to
Speaker 3: something else that was crazy, and Ari got really mad
Speaker 3: at me this weekend was like you could just crazy
Speaker 3: and I go, no, it's just as probable as nine
Speaker 3: to eleven. I compared it to something and I'm just like,
Speaker 3: I'm not saying one is. No, it wasn't nine eleven,
Speaker 3: but it's something kind of catastrophic where people died. And
Speaker 3: ARII was like, that is not the same, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: I don't think it's the same stakes. I'm just saying
Speaker 3: it's the same like craziness where people were just like wait,
Speaker 3: is this real? And I just love when things happened
Speaker 3: like that, especially at the Oscars, where you thought the
Speaker 3: craziest thing that could ever happen is that the Best
Speaker 3: Picture nominee would be the wrong one read.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I remember just thinking like, that's the craziest thing I'll
Speaker 2: ever see on TV.
Speaker 1: Wow, And they really taught was that the next year.
Speaker 2: That No, that was like probably six years later.
Speaker 1: I remember watching that too and that I was like, Wow,
Speaker 1: this is just so this was so fucked up. It's
Speaker 1: crazy just how the oscars is like kind of fading
Speaker 1: into obscurity and no and not people don't care about
Speaker 1: it anymore. And he really requires a moment like that
Speaker 1: even to like make the news right.
Speaker 2: That is because watching the Stanley Cup Finals last night,
Speaker 2: it was like such a big deal in Florida wherever
Speaker 2: it was.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Andrew Collin has a tattoo of a panther on
Speaker 3: his arm because he wanted to represent Florida on his arm.
Speaker 2: This couple weeks of his life where he was like getting.
Speaker 3: Tattoos because it's just that face of his sure late thirties,
Speaker 3: and he got this really cool I mean, he's really
Speaker 3: well done this panther.
Speaker 2: And we were all like what is that for?
Speaker 3: He did it alone, and he's like, it's for Florida
Speaker 3: because the Panthers, Like, are you know Florida Florida.
Speaker 2: Panthers, Yeah, which is the hockey team that's h two.
Speaker 3: But like he he also thought panthers were in Florida,
Speaker 3: like that they were like native to Florida, and then
Speaker 3: he checked and.
Speaker 2: They haven't been there since like the Jurassic period. They
Speaker 2: haven't been there since in millennia and it's so funny.
Speaker 3: But I wrote them last night saying like your your
Speaker 3: tattoo is like paying off today, Like that's it's putting
Speaker 3: panthers on the back down there and in a way
Speaker 3: that's beyond But that was Did you even watch the stand?
Speaker 3: Like I watched that and then I go on my Instagram,
Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, I didn't see a single thing from it.
Speaker 3: They know that generally I would not give a fuck,
Speaker 3: but they they're gonna start understanding. Like I wonder when
Speaker 3: sports stuff is going to start making its way in
Speaker 3: my feet because I'm trying.
Speaker 1: To ball, got it? I mean football is definitely gonna
Speaker 1: make its way into your feet eventually, I hope.
Speaker 3: So I need to work on understanding it better. I'm
Speaker 3: really looking forward to doing football related stuff for this fall,
Speaker 3: like on a TV way, because it's really fun and
Speaker 3: I love working with everyone involved in that world. I
Speaker 3: feel like they're very similar to comics.
Speaker 1: Do yeah, agree? All players are awesome.
Speaker 3: And just like the people are that like sports that
Speaker 3: like the I don't know. I just feel like I
Speaker 3: can kind of talk, even though don't literally talk the
Speaker 3: language of sports. I feel like I can hang with
Speaker 3: people who do in a genuine way.
Speaker 1: You're joking all the time.
Speaker 3: I'm always at I'm talking like I'm at a Buffalo
Speaker 3: wild wings all day long in the lock like locker room,
Speaker 3: like all like that in church.
Speaker 1: So, I uh, the marriage of sports and comedy is
Speaker 1: so obvious now to me in retrospect, I'm shocked that
Speaker 1: it hasn't happened in a more significant way prior to
Speaker 1: basically the roast.
Speaker 3: I think it's because comedians are so like boned up
Speaker 3: for sports that they can't relax around athletes in a
Speaker 3: way like that's I'm just kidding, But I'm not like
Speaker 3: there might be that vibe where because I know that
Speaker 3: I couldn't really be comfortable around Taylor Swift like I could,
Speaker 3: but it would be you know, it would be harder.
Speaker 3: But because I don't know the magnitude of these people, yeah,
Speaker 3: it makes it easier for me a.
Speaker 1: Little bit superpower. You're you're immune to their celebrity.
Speaker 3: To stop to not hair. But I do care about
Speaker 3: these people. I love Pat McAfee. Actually I followed him
Speaker 3: since I did the show and I love him, And
Speaker 3: he did a post about how Travis Kelce like he
Speaker 3: was like he had to throw all her ex boyfriends
Speaker 3: under the bus. But he's like none of those other
Speaker 3: schlubs that she stated whatever, be this funny and this
Speaker 3: and put themselves out there like that.
Speaker 2: And he's right, He's right. I don't think.
Speaker 3: I do think Joe would have probably performed had she asked,
Speaker 3: but no, he kind of kept her secret. So I
Speaker 3: think I think Pat's right that I just love he's
Speaker 3: just uh. I just like the way these they talk
Speaker 3: very frank and like harsh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they're having a good time most most
Speaker 1: doing what they I mean, Yeah, they they're doing what
Speaker 1: they love and they like having a good time. And
Speaker 1: it's it's true if I think a lot of athletes
Speaker 1: so over across sports. It's not just football, but football
Speaker 1: is the biggest sport, and these guys are like celebrities.
Speaker 3: Because they dedicated their like formative years to so many
Speaker 3: hours practicing that they kind of have a little bit
Speaker 3: of a stunted growth, which I feel I have as well.
Speaker 3: What do you what's your level of maturity?
Speaker 2: You feel?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 3: What age do you feel? And I know that's not
Speaker 3: like across the board you're like this age, but what
Speaker 3: do you think you feel like you.
Speaker 1: I've been, you retain a lot of I've been in
Speaker 1: my fifties. I've been in my fifties since I was
Speaker 1: eight years old.
Speaker 2: I mean that's hilarious.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've always been something that you haven't been yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, well at the maturity level emotions, is it
Speaker 2: going to be amazing?
Speaker 1: I always said I think my best deck is going
Speaker 1: to be my forties, and I hope it is. I'm
Speaker 1: not there yet. I'm trying to set myself up for
Speaker 1: my forties. That's my whole goal.
Speaker 3: Forties is good so far, I said. Someone asked me
Speaker 3: my age and I just got to say forty for
Speaker 3: the first time. Yeah, I think yesterday and it felt
Speaker 3: really good.
Speaker 1: Forty. That's that's peak career. I mean, forties is when
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be, like, you're past that point where
Speaker 1: you're figuring things out.
Speaker 3: A real fucking person in your peak. You know, like
Speaker 3: if you you are the smartest, you're the you've retained
Speaker 3: the most information of life while retaining the most brain
Speaker 3: to use that information with.
Speaker 2: Now, then it starts to tilt the other way. You
Speaker 2: lose the brain youating experience.
Speaker 1: I think fifties are okay too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, fifties are good. No, I'm not saying, but I
Speaker 2: think it's forties.
Speaker 3: It starts where you get this respective like this person's
Speaker 3: been around, but they're still youthful enough to like use
Speaker 3: what they've got. Absolutely, and thirties you're still trying to
Speaker 3: figure it out. But you kind of look almost forty.
Speaker 3: So people you look like you should have together. I
Speaker 3: don't know, I'm just this is what people do when
Speaker 3: they get older. Is they reason why they're decades is
Speaker 3: the best because they have no choice.
Speaker 2: But to be here.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Then people in their seventies are like, the
Speaker 1: seventies is the best decade. All I'm doing is sipping
Speaker 1: coladas on the beach. Yep, I've got that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I can't wait.
Speaker 3: I'm glad to hear that, because I do want to
Speaker 3: look forward to something. We have to go to break
Speaker 3: and so look forward to that after this.
Speaker 1: So this kid came to my door yesterday and he
Speaker 1: was he was he had a mask on, and he
Speaker 1: seemed like he was maybe a teenager. And he told
Speaker 1: me that he was selling coupons for his high school
Speaker 1: for some reason. And I don't know if that's something
Speaker 1: that high school kids do or if it was just
Speaker 1: a scam, but I felt like I was getting scammed
Speaker 1: while I was doing it. I knew this kid wasn't sing.
Speaker 1: It's like when kids are selling candy for their basketball
Speaker 1: team on the New York City subway system. I knew
Speaker 1: the Girl Scouts or the Girl Scouts. Yeah, they're selling
Speaker 1: cookies for yeah, yeah, funding al Qaeda. I think that
Speaker 1: this kid was scamming me, and I knew he was
Speaker 1: scamming me while he was doing it. But he was
Speaker 1: so good at scamming me that I decided I'm gonna
Speaker 1: give him the money.
Speaker 2: You got scammed. Is what happened.
Speaker 1: I got scammed twenty five dollars. He asked me for
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars. He knocked on my door. I got
Speaker 1: a slate of coupons that work at restaurants I would
Speaker 1: never go to.
Speaker 2: Chocolate I got.
Speaker 1: I got coupons to Arbi's and Applebee's, like places I'll
Speaker 1: never go to. But I I really what was happening
Speaker 1: was I was very impressed by every technique he was
Speaker 1: using to make me empathize with him. He did this
Speaker 1: thing during the middle of the pitch where he goes
Speaker 1: I think he's probably eighteen or nineteen, but he could
Speaker 1: have been tricking me. He's wearing a COVID mask, got it.
Speaker 1: He maybe he was twenty eight. I don't know, yah,
Speaker 1: he said. But he was so energetic and positive and happy.
Speaker 1: And then he said, would it be okay? I'm really
Speaker 1: nervous right now. Would it be okay if I take
Speaker 1: a deep breath? And I was like, go ahead. He
Speaker 1: asked me for permission to take a deep breath, which
Speaker 1: is such an underhand I.
Speaker 2: Will give him twenty five hundred dollars exactly.
Speaker 1: That is so sweet, exactly, So I was like, go ahead,
Speaker 1: take a deep breath. He takes a deep breath before
Speaker 1: the pitch. He's like in the midst of the pitch.
Speaker 1: He threw in little tricks like that, every single one
Speaker 1: of them work, you think, perfectly, I think it was.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine unless he was just so naturally empathetic.
Speaker 2: What what percentage of you thinks that it was a trick? Like, truly?
Speaker 2: What the I want to know because.
Speaker 1: You're ninety percent. Wow, this guy is a expert scam
Speaker 1: artist and not some beautiful high school student who you
Speaker 1: feel for.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he gave twenty five bucks for the performance.
Speaker 1: You got to perform. Yeah, well, and also here's where
Speaker 1: scam artists work, especially for you. Twenty five dollars for
Speaker 1: the performance, twenty five dollars just to leave you alone. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'd pay you twenty five dollars just to leave because
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do Yeah, I'm not gonna slam
Speaker 1: the door in your face. I'm not going to say no,
Speaker 1: thank you, goodbye. I'll give you the money just so
Speaker 1: you can leave. And basically that's what I did. I
Speaker 1: gave him twenty five dollars cash for coupons to Arby's
Speaker 1: and I don't even know if they'll work. I'm I'm
Speaker 1: I kind of want to go to an Arby's to
Speaker 1: try to use the coupon and they're like, what the
Speaker 1: fuck is the sticker? This is not gonna do. This
Speaker 1: is we can't.
Speaker 3: And then you take a deep break, you go, can
Speaker 3: I take it deep? This is the way I can
Speaker 3: eat it.
Speaker 1: And he said, I'm wearing a mask. I'm so sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm wearing my mask. My mom is making me wear
Speaker 1: the mask because she's afraid gets sick.
Speaker 2: Bullshit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all those little tricks.
Speaker 2: He has a sick mom and home. That's what that says.
Speaker 1: All these little tricks were thrown you.
Speaker 3: Know what great Gary Veder and I last week talked
Speaker 3: about like I found this Reddit thread of like all
Speaker 3: these manipula like things you could do with psychology to
Speaker 3: manipulate people, or like the cool psychology tricks, and a
Speaker 3: lot of them feel I mean, they're so fascinating that
Speaker 3: they work the thing subconsciously.
Speaker 1: It's got to be the right person. I was the
Speaker 1: type of person who was unwilling to say, get the
Speaker 1: fuck out of here. No, I know most.
Speaker 2: People are not willing to even though you're thinking it.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, and I'm just like, I don't want to.
Speaker 1: Can you just leave?
Speaker 3: Sorry?
Speaker 1: I don't wish, but it would be nice if I
Speaker 1: had the foresight to look through my people and say,
Speaker 1: this guy is a scam and I don't want to
Speaker 1: even open the door. If I didn't open the door,
Speaker 1: I would have been safe. But I looked through the
Speaker 1: people and I thought, for a second, is this ups guy?
Speaker 1: And is he delivering a package? And that's why I
Speaker 1: opened the door.
Speaker 2: Believe Yeah, okay, so that's that's it. He got you
Speaker 2: in that way.
Speaker 3: He probably is wearing like kind of the colors of
Speaker 3: some like if he's given it a lot of thought,
Speaker 3: they'd kind of dress like someone who might have a
Speaker 3: package deliver.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's a harmless sam.
Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty five dollars. I don't know what that kid's
Speaker 1: going to use the money for. Maybe he will go
Speaker 1: to his restaurant that he said he wanted to open.
Speaker 3: Chris was like, there's like a place where homeless people
Speaker 3: always can't like stay and wait for the you know,
Speaker 3: at a light and they come to your car.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I give money, and sometimes.
Speaker 3: I just don't because I don't have any whatever or
Speaker 3: some food end up at them. No, but Chris was
Speaker 3: saying the other day that he saw one just like
Speaker 3: smoking crack, like right there, like not even trying to
Speaker 3: hide it and sharing. No, but there was something about
Speaker 3: like he was like, you know the thing that you
Speaker 3: think you hope they're not going to do with the
Speaker 3: money that you like, they was just doing it there,
Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh no, Actually, when I give them money,
Speaker 3: I go go get some crack, honey, Like I hope
Speaker 3: that gets you some good crack tonight, because you know what,
Speaker 3: fuck it Like, Yeah, I want them to eat, but
Speaker 3: I also want them to enjoy this fucking life they
Speaker 3: have been given, and I know crack has led them there,
Speaker 3: but it's like, the the only reason it makes it,
Speaker 3: you able. The reason people smoke crack is because how
Speaker 3: could you on a street otherwise? Bitch, Yeah, Like it's
Speaker 3: the only way to make it feel comfortable and to
Speaker 3: not be terrified and all the things.
Speaker 1: So well, I got to imagine they were smoking crack
Speaker 1: first and that's what got them to the street, and
Speaker 1: the crack helps. It's not like they got to the
Speaker 1: streets and they were like, you know what makes this
Speaker 1: more comfortable?
Speaker 3: No, no, no, But I mean they started smoking crack
Speaker 3: because they were uncomfortable in their brains in some way. Sure,
Speaker 3: maybe they have trauma for pol a station. So they
Speaker 3: smoke the crack initially because it feels good because they
Speaker 3: are in fucking mental pain. And then then they get hooked,
Speaker 3: and then they then they feel like throwing up all
Speaker 3: day long, and they feel the worst like gallbladder pain
Speaker 3: unless they smoke it, and they don't want to go
Speaker 3: through that, and then they're on the street, and then
Speaker 3: at that point, what's the point of feeling sick like
Speaker 3: that on the street, Like you just keep doing it.
Speaker 1: And then you got to ask yourself, like what would
Speaker 1: it take in your life for you to sit at
Speaker 1: this traffic light begging people for money? And then you
Speaker 1: kind of realize that.
Speaker 2: I've never loved something the way they love crack. I haven't.
Speaker 3: That's kind of the point. I was trying to make
Speaker 3: it my special about people who do hair, like Heroin's
Speaker 3: the best feeling ever, and everyone it says, you know,
Speaker 3: you should have a kid. The feeling to be a
Speaker 3: mom and to love a child is the best feeling.
Speaker 3: It's like, No, Heroin definitely is, because I don't see
Speaker 3: you on the sidewalk sprawled out sleeping because you love
Speaker 3: your kids so much.
Speaker 2: You know, like, yeah, your life is still You still
Speaker 2: get to sleep in a bed, you still get to
Speaker 2: like go to work or whatever, have a life beloved,
Speaker 2: have the shelter.
Speaker 3: So yeah, Heroin's gotta feel fucking amazing. You felt it
Speaker 3: with the morphine.
Speaker 1: Oh god, I was. I could see myself getting addicted
Speaker 1: to morphine. Yeah, I have another thing. Final thought, is
Speaker 1: this a scam? I was driving in my car and
Speaker 1: there were there was a family, There was a guy
Speaker 1: in the street, a guy on the sidewalk, and children yep.
Speaker 1: And they were holding up signs that said this is
Speaker 1: a scam. They were holding up signs that said we're
Speaker 1: raising money to pay for funeral expenses. Its dead.
Speaker 2: Who is a shit?
Speaker 3: Yes, it's a scam, it's a lie. But you know what,
Speaker 3: that family can't find job and even if they're looking.
Speaker 1: So lying about that someone in their family die, even
Speaker 1: if they.
Speaker 2: Need it an angle. But what they're doing the kids work. Yeah,
Speaker 2: begging is work.
Speaker 3: So when people go like, he's just holding the signal day,
Speaker 3: would you bitch?
Speaker 2: Would you like?
Speaker 3: I don't think it's good and I think it's so
Speaker 3: sad when they use their kids as like a prop
Speaker 3: to make to get more empathy. But like things are,
Speaker 3: life is tough for these people. They don't have the
Speaker 3: same life as you. You wouldn't do that because you're
Speaker 3: not them. And so yeah, and it's not nothing to
Speaker 3: hold to make a sign and to sit there and
Speaker 3: hold it and beg people people walk by you and
Speaker 3: actly they don't see you. To literally be a human
Speaker 3: being who other people ignore and don't even treat like
Speaker 3: a human being, and to degrade yourself in that way,
Speaker 3: because we all, whether you want to or not, there's
Speaker 3: a thing in our society where we look down upon
Speaker 3: people who are homeless like that, that is not an
Speaker 3: easy choice to make to do that. So I give
Speaker 3: them money just by it because I'm like, I wouldn't
Speaker 3: do that, and I don't think it should be a
Speaker 3: job per se, But in this country it is a job, and.
Speaker 1: Got someone's got to do it. Someone's got a sign.
Speaker 3: And I'm you know, if you can't afford to give
Speaker 3: to the homeless, I know it's like don't feed the
Speaker 3: ducks or whatever, but is it, like, I think it
Speaker 3: is our job to give a couple bucks their way,
Speaker 3: and it sucks that our government isn't taking care of them,
Speaker 3: but until they do, I think it's like the nice
Speaker 3: thing to help them. And now, by by no means
Speaker 3: am I saying I give like enough to justify this
Speaker 3: rantom going on. But I should and I would if
Speaker 3: someone like I know, Sam Harris does this thing called
Speaker 3: uh it's called something altruism.
Speaker 2: Uh huh, I forget what it's called.
Speaker 1: It's but it's performative altruism.
Speaker 2: No, it's not. It's not performative because you don't tell people.
Speaker 3: You only tell people about it because you want other
Speaker 3: people to do it, but you donate ten percent of
Speaker 3: your income to to make that money go the like
Speaker 3: for if your money, the best use of money I
Speaker 3: think to save lives is to buy mosquito nuts.
Speaker 2: I think is what they've determined.
Speaker 3: So it's like, find the company that will make the
Speaker 3: best use of that money and donate. Always donate ten
Speaker 3: percent of your income the rest of your life, and
Speaker 3: like that is I would like to do that someday.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I know effective altruism, thank you ea,
Speaker 3: And I would like to do that someday because I
Speaker 3: preach a big game. Yeah yeah, but I but it
Speaker 3: is scary because other people don't. And then you think
Speaker 3: about all that money, all of the Zar, like I
Speaker 3: could buy all of Zara like season, this whole season
Speaker 3: and have the whole shop in my and I'll never
Speaker 3: do that. I won't even buy myself one Zara shirt. Instead,
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna keep that money because then it'll make
Speaker 3: more money that i'll keep keeping. And then that money
Speaker 3: that I keep will make more money that I will
Speaker 3: then keep, and then I'll die and it'll go to
Speaker 3: my niece who will do the same shit with it
Speaker 3: for generations.
Speaker 1: Or you'll wind up spending it on something stupid.
Speaker 3: No, I'll die with so much money. I know I will,
Speaker 3: because it's the American way. I'll donate it to something
Speaker 3: in the event of my death. But yeah, I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't spend money on that stupid of things. So
Speaker 3: it seems like a good thing to do, so I'll
Speaker 3: probably this is this conversation has helped me maybe do
Speaker 3: it sooner than I would have.
Speaker 2: But who knows.
Speaker 1: It's a lot.
Speaker 2: It's a fuck ton, Yeah, it's a fuck ton.
Speaker 3: But it's also like, if you think about it, if
Speaker 3: I think I could get to a place where I
Speaker 3: could do it, because I could just think of it
Speaker 3: as like that money was never mine. That's just the
Speaker 3: what's that's the price of being a good human and
Speaker 3: giving back in a way that you would hope people
Speaker 3: would get back to you if you were on the
Speaker 3: receiving end of that ten percent.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now, I think if after you hit a certain threshold,
Speaker 1: like if you're a multimillionaire or a billionaire, you should
Speaker 1: give more than ten percent because there's just once you
Speaker 1: read the tax billions, because the tax incentive and yeah,
Speaker 1: you just gotta you gotta skirt the system.
Speaker 3: Somehow someone just told me buying a range Rover because
Speaker 3: it's over two tons, that it counts as like a
Speaker 3: commercial vehicle and you can write off the entire cost
Speaker 3: and that's why everyone buys one. And I'm like, for
Speaker 3: the first time in my life, I'm like, ooh, that's
Speaker 3: a lot. Like what And I hated that thought of like, oh,
Speaker 3: I can do it a sneaky tax thing, but that's legal.
Speaker 1: Person brain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want a big honkin car, but that what.
Speaker 3: But I've been in the Range River and they are
Speaker 3: very nice, and that is that is a.
Speaker 1: Huge two tons that you really need a car that heavy.
Speaker 2: No, that's the thing. I don't want a car that heavy.
Speaker 2: That's so dangerous.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I killed the guy from Star Trek. Really,
Speaker 1: I don't remember a car he had, but he got
Speaker 1: smashed by his own car because the break.
Speaker 2: Oh driveway, No, I don't think it was.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want a two ton vehicle to drive up
Speaker 1: a mountain or that's what they're for. I just feel
Speaker 1: like it's so heavy, it's like it's almost like dangerous,
Speaker 1: like it's gonna smash the road or something.
Speaker 2: Literally is it just feels too much.
Speaker 1: Too much. I mean now, to be fair though, if
Speaker 1: you hit into it, if you get into a car accident,
Speaker 1: you'll just decimate the other person.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're gonna be okay.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I haven't checked the safety on those, but yeah, they're fucked.
Speaker 2: But that's the thing.
Speaker 3: I don't want to drive something that can cause mass
Speaker 3: destruction to like a party bus of teams. Yeah that
Speaker 3: aren't wearing their seat belts because you know they they
Speaker 3: ran a red light.
Speaker 2: It's not gonna be my fault. We know that.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do want to say I'm fifty to
Speaker 1: fifty on the funeral thing. I was really considering giving
Speaker 1: them like fifty bucks because I was like, I believe them.
Speaker 3: I would put that at a ninety percent ninety eight percent,
Speaker 3: ninety eight. I think they're down and out. I think
Speaker 3: they yes, and I think Grandma did die at some point.
Speaker 3: But that's where they got the story from. That's remember
Speaker 3: when we need money for that, that would have been
Speaker 3: a good thing. Maybe we got money that really seemed
Speaker 3: to make people give us money. Yeah, they walked through
Speaker 3: it already.
Speaker 1: New it was like a real live GoFundMe scam. They
Speaker 1: were just doing it in person.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in front of the target. Yeah, it happens a
Speaker 3: lot here too. It's really sad when the kids are involved.
Speaker 3: But you know what I always think about, like, oh,
Speaker 3: I can't wait to read that little girl's book someday,
Speaker 3: Like I really just I project onto her that she's
Speaker 3: going to be a star and make something of this
Speaker 3: and get out to this and this will be just
Speaker 3: a really great story that enriches the person that she
Speaker 3: is and what she overcame.
Speaker 2: But it's it's, uh, you know, that's not.
Speaker 1: And those are just the ones you hear about now.
Speaker 1: Most of the time they just kind of drift into
Speaker 1: obscurity and wind up working at a subway and it's
Speaker 1: just kind of like.
Speaker 3: Okay, or a boost mobile. Okay, we made it full circle.
Speaker 2: Everyone. Thank you for listening to the show.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be on tour this weekend tomorrow or tonight
Speaker 3: in Chandler, Arizona, if you're near the Phoenix area at
Speaker 3: the River's Otter Casino, the no the River's Edge, the
Speaker 3: river what was it, the Guila Monster, the.
Speaker 2: Gila Monster Monster Casino. I think it's called.
Speaker 1: Otherwise known as the Komodo Dragon River.
Speaker 3: Gila, Yes, Gila River casino there it's I'm sure it's
Speaker 3: an enchanting place.
Speaker 2: I can't wait to go. I'll see you there and
Speaker 2: then besties.
Speaker 3: There's just tons of tour dates that you got to
Speaker 3: hop in on. Note the meet and greets are not
Speaker 3: happening on new tour dates, So if it's a new
Speaker 3: added tour date, there's no meet and greet. I just
Speaker 3: don't want you to get excited. But on the old
Speaker 3: tour dates where there's single seats, I think a lot
Speaker 3: of still available. Those do still have meet and greets.
Speaker 3: So this is the announcement of that. I am, I am.
Speaker 3: What's the word Weaning yourself away from meet and greets, tapering, tight, trating.
Speaker 1: Meet and great, getting too much?
Speaker 2: Huh, it's getting too much.
Speaker 3: I love meeting people so much, but it is draining
Speaker 3: of my energy that I need and I feel like
Speaker 3: it's just it's it's it's worth.
Speaker 2: It when I meet you.
Speaker 3: When I meet you, like when I run into you,
Speaker 3: and if there's a circumstance in which we can meet
Speaker 3: at some point, I'm always down for that, Like I
Speaker 3: love you so much, but I just.
Speaker 1: Nicky in front of the correct Starbucks at the right.
Speaker 3: Time Honestly, a good thing to do is like go
Speaker 3: to Starbucks within a like a mile radius of where
Speaker 3: I'm performing that night, and I probably will be at
Speaker 3: one because I'm usually staying pretty close by a venue.
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, by the venue that I'm performing at,
Speaker 3: and then just hang out at the Starbucks and you
Speaker 3: might see me.
Speaker 2: It's like the best bet you can get.
Speaker 1: But you go to pretty random Starbucks, shre we.
Speaker 2: Could murder me too in that way. So I just
Speaker 2: gave I just kind of gave a what did you say, Brian?
Speaker 1: If you go to random Starbucks, it's gonna it's a
Speaker 1: tough gamble because on the road you go to some
Speaker 1: random Starbucks that are just like this one's five miles
Speaker 1: away from where we're gonna be.
Speaker 3: In thirty it doesn't have a mobile order. I'm not
Speaker 3: gonna be at that one. So check if it does
Speaker 3: mobile order because that'll that'll weed some of those out
Speaker 3: so you can kind of focus in. But anyway, I
Speaker 3: do have I think meet and greets will be happening
Speaker 3: on dates that are into the fall, but it's new
Speaker 3: tour dates that have been added. Those are second shows,
Speaker 3: and you can kind of tell when the show was added,
Speaker 3: check when it was announced. If it was announced post roast,
Speaker 3: that means no meet and greet, and I'm sorry and
Speaker 3: I love you so much, and to those who I
Speaker 3: do get to meet, I'm so fucking excited and I
Speaker 3: will continue meeting all of you because I'm out and
Speaker 3: about and also you guys, I'm still right to you
