Speaker 3: I'm back.
Speaker 6: I'm back in Los Angeles. I had a great time
Speaker 6: in Montana, hanging out with my dad.
Speaker 2: Great.
Speaker 3: My punk rock concert was a hit.
Speaker 4: I saw some video. It looked really exciting.
Speaker 3: It was fun.
Speaker 6: I didn't have I need to take that same class
Speaker 6: that Ron Funchs was talking about, though, because I clearly
Speaker 6: am singing incorrectly because I had no voice for two days,
Speaker 6: and I still sound a little Sam ellioty.
Speaker 3: So I'm a little You.
Speaker 4: Gave it, You're all.
Speaker 3: I really gave it everything to me.
Speaker 6: I'm The only reason I'm nervous is we have other
Speaker 6: We've had offers for other gigs, and I feel like,
Speaker 6: maybe I it's not in my best interest to go
Speaker 6: scream when my main job requires my voice to not
Speaker 6: be gravelly.
Speaker 5: I don't know, there's a real it would feel like
Speaker 5: you're at a crossroads and you're gonna have to pick
Speaker 5: one career over the other, just like John Mayer side.
Speaker 4: No, you know what stand up isn't for me?
Speaker 3: Right? Yes?
Speaker 6: Member, No, it's a lot. It is a real John
Speaker 6: Mayre crossroads right now.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 6: I got offered to scream in The Grateful Dead, and
Speaker 6: I might have to turn it down. But yeah, it
Speaker 6: was very fun good and it wasn't as scary.
Speaker 3: As I thought it would be. It was just playtime And.
Speaker 4: Do you feel braver for having done it?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 6: And I didn't expect everyone in the crowd to appreciate
Speaker 6: the songs we were doing. It was really specific songs,
Speaker 6: like I said, from Scape videos and people I've never
Speaker 6: I did not expect people to be upfront, singing along
Speaker 6: and losing their minds. I was like, oh, this is
Speaker 6: kind of what it feels like to be a rock star.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're like, it's like you were in a cover band. Yep,
Speaker 5: A very specific.
Speaker 3: Very specific.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 6: I loved it perfect I loved it, but I maybe
Speaker 6: got it out of my system.
Speaker 3: That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Did you love it as much as you love our
Speaker 4: guest today? Ask you?
Speaker 3: You're so smooth with those No. I did know.
Speaker 4: Someone's got to do it. You don't know. You didn't
Speaker 4: hear the questions.
Speaker 6: I did not love it as much as our guest today.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, got it.
Speaker 5: You've seen her at clubs and colleges all over this country.
Speaker 5: Please welcome to the stage right now, miss Jackie cash.
Speaker 2: Mine, in the in the zoom, in the zoom. This
Speaker 2: is so great. I could have thank you for driving
Speaker 2: me to Solving. I just want to say that I'm
Speaker 2: insolving with an unstable inner. So here's the good news.
Speaker 2: I'm recording locally, so everyone will I'll get to finish
Speaker 2: every story record locally.
Speaker 4: Yes, that's what we ask you to do for us.
Speaker 6: Please, you really are because I have experience with Solving
Speaker 6: having terrible WI FI throughout its wine country.
Speaker 2: It's and this is my wine. I wish it were better.
Speaker 2: I'll be Oh my god, I'm always.
Speaker 4: Isn't it truly isn't Wine Country?
Speaker 2: I'm always writing you guys.
Speaker 6: I found that place is interesting in that it's a
Speaker 6: town dedicated to giving people wine. And you try and
Speaker 6: wine and they top it off and give you extra wine.
Speaker 6: And the entire city limits is lined with police cars
Speaker 6: around nine pm waiting.
Speaker 2: You know, it seems like that hopes to earn hundreds
Speaker 2: and hundreds of dollars.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you think it'd be bad for business, though.
Speaker 6: I had a guy just follow me after I went
Speaker 6: up there for a birthday destination and had wine, and
Speaker 6: he followed me miles and miles down the road.
Speaker 2: And when you say a guy, you're talking about a
Speaker 2: police officer, a police guy.
Speaker 3: He was a policeman And uh, yeah, what if it.
Speaker 2: Was just a guy, Yeah, that would have been super.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Chris got upset because there was a car behind him,
Speaker 5: that's your story.
Speaker 6: And he didn't even wave when I wanted to pull
Speaker 6: over and be my friend.
Speaker 3: Very unfriendly guy.
Speaker 4: He didn't laugh when I stopped short.
Speaker 6: They of my traffic tricks. Traffic tricks.
Speaker 5: Do you think that's how they keep all those buildings
Speaker 5: painted so beautifully? As they just keep dinging people with
Speaker 5: DUIs and moving violations.
Speaker 2: Yeah, would not be surprised.
Speaker 3: They take that money and grow more grapes.
Speaker 2: And then now there's a Chumash casino.
Speaker 4: Oh are you going to go there?
Speaker 2: I can't imagine, but maybe it could happen. You know
Speaker 2: what I say, I know how to party. And when
Speaker 2: I say that, I have a new book to read.
Speaker 4: So you've always said that so loud and exactly.
Speaker 2: Hey, Nerd, it's uh, I realized probably three years ago. Now,
Speaker 2: Oh is it? I hope it isn't. Uh. I tripped
Speaker 2: off the curb and sprained my ankle and I stopped
Speaker 2: going to pilates.
Speaker 4: Sign from God, this is not working.
Speaker 2: I believe I have like hundreds of dollars in credits,
Speaker 2: like I bought like a whole thing.
Speaker 3: I do too.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm gonna go. I'm going to go.
Speaker 6: I have Plates credit also, And I won't acknowledge it
Speaker 6: was it, at least the curb in front of the
Speaker 6: Plates studio.
Speaker 2: No, it was. We had just gotten a dog and
Speaker 2: I was walking the dog and I wiped out. And
Speaker 2: the woman who saw me wipe out by the way
Speaker 2: went back into her house and the guy right and
Speaker 2: she wanted.
Speaker 6: No part, right, Yeah I would. I actually, I wouldn't
Speaker 6: blame Pilates. I'd blame dog ownership on that one. You
Speaker 6: gotta quit loving these dogs and walking.
Speaker 5: Or you just you gotta find any reason to quit pilates.
Speaker 4: That's to me enough.
Speaker 2: But that's it.
Speaker 5: You're like, now that I'm falling down, I'm thinking about this,
Speaker 5: and plates isn't working out for me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe it was the class I took.
Speaker 6: But you know, I dabbled in the bar method after
Speaker 6: my hip, and it was it was great. I have
Speaker 6: only nice things to say about it. But Pilates, I
Speaker 6: feel like you can fake it and pretend you're doing
Speaker 6: the things and still make the body movements and leave
Speaker 6: totally sweat free. That's what I didn't like about it.
Speaker 6: I'm like, everyone here thinks I'm doing it, but I'm not.
Speaker 2: Right. No one's thinking about you at all, right, they
Speaker 2: aren't even.
Speaker 4: Looking on don't even which Why are you paying that money.
Speaker 2: You were paying to yes, you were pretending to be Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's just it seems like one hundred and fifty dollars
Speaker 2: a month of eye contact.
Speaker 3: I came here to make friends, That's like, it's.
Speaker 5: Almost like a hot yoga like heavy eye contact with
Speaker 5: the audio.
Speaker 4: It's a different way to work out where your muscles like.
Speaker 5: The tension and the awkwardness makes every muscle in your
Speaker 5: body flex.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think it was hot yoga that made me realize
Speaker 6: I have too good of a sense of smell to
Speaker 6: do that.
Speaker 2: You know what, what do you always your sense of smell?
Speaker 2: I have decided that I have really good hearing you guys,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Andy, my fella really good smell. He's got
Speaker 2: a good sniffer. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I back when I was smoking SIGs long ago, when
Speaker 6: I quit that, I yeah, superhuman sense of smell.
Speaker 3: I can smell everything.
Speaker 5: Well, you know what I would actually say is smell
Speaker 5: might be connected to this. I have a superhuman sense
Speaker 5: of taste, So I can't like, if you give me
Speaker 5: a piece of chocolate that's been sitting next to a starburst,
Speaker 5: I can tell you that.
Speaker 4: That has been happening.
Speaker 2: That is amazing.
Speaker 5: I can taste that the fruit, the like chemical fruit
Speaker 5: flavoring is seeped into the chocolate experience.
Speaker 6: When I eat beef, I can tell if it was
Speaker 6: raised in the same farm as a pig.
Speaker 2: Did you ever meet a pig? Because I could taste
Speaker 2: it on your breath.
Speaker 5: The emotional the emotional comfort you got from that pig
Speaker 5: is really coming through in this burger.
Speaker 6: Yeah, a friendship. I can taste the friendship without their
Speaker 6: kinship with you.
Speaker 2: Know, Charlotte, You ever asked that of a pig? Did
Speaker 2: you ever know a Charlotte? They love it?
Speaker 3: They love it. You know what? They never laugh and
Speaker 3: neither does the farmer.
Speaker 4: No one laughs during Charlotte's I walked.
Speaker 6: All the way up the road to your barn to
Speaker 6: make this joke, and you're not even gonna chocolate, and.
Speaker 4: You're gonna call the cops. What the hell?
Speaker 2: You know? I've been trying to write a bit where
Speaker 2: the punchline is we're all living in the first eighty
Speaker 2: pages of Watership Down. Guess what's stop working? Guess what
Speaker 2: what isn't working?
Speaker 4: Just sorry, may I may suggestion? Yes, you just wrote
Speaker 4: that bit.
Speaker 2: You just said it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh right, you did it.
Speaker 2: Just do it? Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think in your acts you should have five minutes
Speaker 6: of uh material that started with the punchline and pleading
Speaker 6: with the audience to help, and then.
Speaker 2: The first engineer did nobody else read about Napoleon? It's
Speaker 2: like he didn't just go to Elba. He also went
Speaker 2: to Saint Helena. Anything.
Speaker 4: Okay, the Flappers, No, keep behind me.
Speaker 2: Flappers, get thee behind me.
Speaker 3: They love it at Flappers.
Speaker 6: When you talk period, Yes, they're a period comedy club.
Speaker 4: They're a period piece piece.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 4: I saw a bit of yours on TikTok the other day.
Speaker 2: I am on TikTok.
Speaker 4: God nos, that's very smart. Here's what I thought. Okay,
Speaker 4: because I love TikTok, I'm into it.
Speaker 5: You on board, so into it because my sister, Yeah,
Speaker 5: we we got one over. My sister was always sending
Speaker 5: me one she liked. And then I think I've told
Speaker 5: Chris this, but I didn't have the app, and I
Speaker 5: was like weirdly refusing because I have left over nineties problems.
Speaker 5: So it's like I refuse to download TikTok like that's
Speaker 5: meaningful in anyway. So I just wouldn't do it. And
Speaker 5: then my sister would send me these videos. They would
Speaker 5: be like, look at this dog guarding chickens and he
Speaker 5: loves it or whatever. But I would then just kind
Speaker 5: of like flip out of the video but it would
Speaker 5: still be open. And then at some point in the
Speaker 5: middle of the night one time, the next video started
Speaker 5: rolling and it was just a girl like crying and
Speaker 5: talking like I just don't want to and it was
Speaker 5: like out of the blue.
Speaker 4: I was like, what the fuck who's in here?
Speaker 5: And then I was like I have to get the
Speaker 5: app because I can't give the thread of that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, gets to know you and only caters to you,
Speaker 6: and they figure out you don't like crying, and they also.
Speaker 4: Every time I'm not interested, not interested in crying.
Speaker 5: But then so I'm good looking through and it's like,
Speaker 5: you know, there's all these people that I love that
Speaker 5: are on there, like chef reactions, who's the funniest, and
Speaker 5: then just people that are like, hey, be yourself and
Speaker 5: in a crowd or whatever. And then Flick Flick and
Speaker 5: then it's just Jackie doing like a super solid.
Speaker 4: Three minute bit and I'm like, this is brilliant. It's
Speaker 4: so smart.
Speaker 5: It's the best way to get like, have people show
Speaker 5: your little chunks off.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they if they aren't going to go to a club.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's and and most of them are. If I
Speaker 2: did more crowd work because I know, like there's so
Speaker 2: many comics who do crowd work, and I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't want to talk to the crowd. What am
Speaker 2: I going to say to them? Yeah, and I ask
Speaker 2: them what they do for a living? Who gives a shit?
Speaker 2: They're trying to get away from it. So I did
Speaker 2: send a couple of uh. I sent an hour to
Speaker 2: a guy and I was like, I'm unwilling to watch
Speaker 2: this if you can find any sort of any under
Speaker 2: a minute clips of anything that you can do, And
Speaker 2: so he sent me like six clips and one of
Speaker 2: them was a new bit that I was willing to
Speaker 2: post because it's a story that's probably never going to
Speaker 2: make it onto an album. It's about how I mace somebody.
Speaker 2: And because like every time I do something horrible like
Speaker 2: that and that has happened, I would say every three
Speaker 2: to five years, I push somebody or snap.
Speaker 6: That's one of the things I love about you. I
Speaker 6: just want to say that they're not afraid to throw down.
Speaker 2: But the thing is is I am always going to
Speaker 2: be the adult in the story. In especially it's very
Speaker 2: weird when the first story like that the child was nine.
Speaker 2: I will always tell that story and I will always
Speaker 2: be thirty one and that kid will always be nine.
Speaker 2: It's not a great story.
Speaker 3: That's not a pup. First, great story.
Speaker 2: No, that's not the peppers.
Speaker 6: In the wait did you send this? What's this guy
Speaker 6: that you sent the clip to a cop?
Speaker 2: Is that?
Speaker 4: Did you write your admission underneath limitations?
Speaker 5: Uh? The jackiecasion pushed this little piece of ship.
Speaker 2: I whipped a towel ladder sheep anyway, I just but
Speaker 2: it was literally when I realized that I was going
Speaker 2: to have to be the adult in every situation, when
Speaker 2: I realized that I was acting like a child anyway.
Speaker 2: So the the pepper spray thing happened late at night
Speaker 2: after a comedy club gig. I walked to my car
Speaker 2: and there was a dude leaning against my car and
Speaker 2: it was one in the morning, and I was like, hey, man,
Speaker 2: that's my car. I'm going to need to get into
Speaker 2: it if you could move, and he was like Jesus
Speaker 2: because he was all super drunk, and I'm like, nope,
Speaker 2: gotta move, and he's like this doc and I'm like,
Speaker 2: let's not talk. Just one of the morning. And then
Speaker 2: finally he goes, you seem nice and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: that's an illusion, and then I root around him a
Speaker 2: jan sport and I pull out mace at one point
Speaker 2: and I go, I am mace and he's like, you're
Speaker 2: not going to maze me, and I'm maced and then
Speaker 2: a little squeeze.
Speaker 3: Doesn't it work? Great? How close?
Speaker 2: Were too close? Because I maced myself. Oh, I don't
Speaker 2: know if you've ever wasted anybody? Everybody.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sorry the way you just said that. Though
Speaker 4: I thought you were gonna like drag it out and
Speaker 4: just like you're not going to maze me.
Speaker 2: But the whole story is about how I maced him,
Speaker 2: and then how I got I maced myself, and then
Speaker 2: the back end of the second you know, because every
Speaker 2: bit I write is something like four and a half
Speaker 2: to six minutes, and then a year and a half later,
Speaker 2: we've got it down two and a half and three minutes,
Speaker 2: when it's old news that I've tightened it up. But
Speaker 2: the point being is that I should have as soon
Speaker 2: as I saw him, I should have walked back to
Speaker 2: the comedy club right and gotten Matt Fugate, which is
Speaker 2: what I had to do after I maceed him. Had
Speaker 2: to walk back to the comedy club and get Matt Feugate.
Speaker 4: You're gonna have to go anywhay.
Speaker 2: Two glasses of water because a couple of people have
Speaker 2: been maced, and we'll watch how to Eyeballs. And I
Speaker 2: get back to my car and he's sitting next to
Speaker 2: my car crying because he's been mazed. And if I
Speaker 2: had just done it initially, he also might have been
Speaker 2: sitting next to my car crying because I don't know
Speaker 2: how you drank in the nineties, but I used to
Speaker 2: sit next to cars crying.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I used to come too.
Speaker 5: I'm like stoops in the middle of like a speech
Speaker 5: while I was crying, where I was like, I literally
Speaker 5: one time said to my friends, got sorry, I don't
Speaker 5: know what's going on, and he was like, you're crying
Speaker 5: because blah blah blah, like he had to tell me.
Speaker 5: It was like I came too in a blackout, Like okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: what am I upset?
Speaker 2: Right? Remind me, Remind me why I'm sewing.
Speaker 6: Maybe the guy buyer the car had just come to
Speaker 6: and he's like, this looks like the car of a
Speaker 6: few your friend, wait right here.
Speaker 5: Talk about it in the daylight, motherfucker. No future, You.
Speaker 3: Did the right thing.
Speaker 6: I'm proud of that. Everyone should have mace. I've said
Speaker 6: that for you I've.
Speaker 2: Never well, and it's part of the larger bit. It's
Speaker 2: part of this larger bit about why I shouldn't own
Speaker 2: a gun.
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes, agreed.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because several people told me I should get a gun.
Speaker 2: And of course the main reason I shouldn't have a
Speaker 2: gun is how much I want a gun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, then we wouldn't need mace.
Speaker 6: Everyone should or sorry, if everyone had mace, we wouldn't
Speaker 6: need guns. I don't quote me on the first version.
Speaker 4: Chris is trying to give you some life advice.
Speaker 6: Here, hold on, let me say the opposite first, anybody
Speaker 6: would just please buy a gun.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. So my my mother in law moved
Speaker 2: in with us about three months in. Oh yeah, she's
Speaker 2: it and and it's it's I'm working on a new genre,
Speaker 2: positive mother in law material. I have yet to write anything,
Speaker 2: but but some experience I do. The biggest problem is
Speaker 2: I like her, you know, I like her and I
Speaker 2: love her. So she's fine. But she is of course older,
Speaker 2: and you know, and there's a lot of changes, including
Speaker 2: her own life, which has been She used to live
Speaker 2: in like a three thousand square foot house with a
Speaker 2: giant you know, up by the sequoias and now she
Speaker 2: lives in a in our thousand square foot house in
Speaker 2: her room. Uh, and she brought her dog and cat.
Speaker 2: Like we're stacked like cordwood in this stupid house.
Speaker 5: Anyway, But was she did she like fall and hit
Speaker 5: her hip, like break her hip or something else?
Speaker 2: She yeah, her, she was just gonna move down and
Speaker 2: move into an apartment. But then her health kind of
Speaker 2: took went south, and so we brought her down. She
Speaker 2: has the best insurance. I took her to her new
Speaker 2: primary caret insurance person and they had a live orchid
Speaker 2: in the waiting room. Chris Karen, they had kept an
Speaker 2: orchid alive. I was like, Oh, she's gonna live. It's
Speaker 2: going to be great. I was like, I got a kaiser.
Speaker 2: They don't even have plastic flow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I was everywhere.
Speaker 6: That is a good sign that someone knows how to
Speaker 6: keep you alive.
Speaker 2: If you can do an orchid, orchids are amazing and
Speaker 2: so anyway, but yeah, she had so I can do it.
Speaker 5: I can keep an orc Sorry, I can keep an
Speaker 5: organ alive for like two months, and right when I
Speaker 5: start getting cocky, they die.
Speaker 2: That's that'll do it. It can it can sense it.
Speaker 2: It can be like, no, you are not as reverent
Speaker 2: as I need you to be.
Speaker 4: I'm killing I'm killing or kids with my arrogance.
Speaker 2: I smell Hubris and I'm.
Speaker 4: Got goodbye, goodbye.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So when but uh Andy's moms, he had two moms.
Speaker 2: They got it on the ground floor of lesbians, so
Speaker 2: back in the day, and so but what his step
Speaker 2: mom passed away and that so his mom moved in
Speaker 2: with us. But they had I swear to God, it's
Speaker 2: what we're all going to be when we're one hundred
Speaker 2: years old, is that we're all going to have collected
Speaker 2: these things that all we do is like they had
Speaker 2: all they have all the I opened a man size
Speaker 2: safe to probably hundreds of dollars worth of those quarters
Speaker 2: that have the states on the back, and they're missing Delaware.
Speaker 2: If anybody has access to that.
Speaker 4: They really are collecting those quarters.
Speaker 2: All those quarters, they've got them in books. Friends collected them.
Speaker 2: They also were collecting. This is my favorite story is
Speaker 2: they're collecting friend and used to collect two dollar bills
Speaker 2: because she thought they were fun. And so there's like
Speaker 2: three thousand dollars and two dollar bills and so Chris,
Speaker 2: who is Andy's mom, says, my brother loves two dollar bills,
Speaker 2: we should send them to him, and I said, everyone
Speaker 2: loves three thousand dollars, Chris. Yes, he will indeed love
Speaker 2: to receive all of these two dollar bills, Yes, in
Speaker 2: any denomination. So why don't we write him a check
Speaker 2: and not Lucy Goosey send them two grand three grand
Speaker 2: through the mail.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought two dollar bills were rare, but I'm
Speaker 6: seeing them a lot and finding no one's impressed with
Speaker 6: my collection a two dollars bills.
Speaker 5: I had a family friend, she was my mom's best
Speaker 5: friend from nursing school, and she would send us two
Speaker 5: dollar bills in cards for like our for whatever holiday.
Speaker 5: And at first I was like, ooh, like keep this
Speaker 5: rare thing. And I can't tell you how quickly I
Speaker 5: spent those. When I was broke. We'd just be like
Speaker 5: just pulling another very meaningful and generous and lovely gift
Speaker 5: out and being like right down to seven eleven or whatever.
Speaker 4: We're just like, I gotta do it. It's money, yeah, yes, money.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It turns out the other thing don't collect money collecting money.
Speaker 2: It's the one thing that they did have that nerd.
Speaker 2: This is why I know that it's gonna be me
Speaker 2: one day. Is because I make fun of the quarters.
Speaker 2: I make fun of the two dollar bills. There were
Speaker 2: dollars and half dollars. I'm like, oh no, I want those.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna save those.
Speaker 4: Like silver dollars.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like silver, like old like Franklin.
Speaker 6: And I do take issue with the because there's the
Speaker 6: little gold ones and they are the circumference of a
Speaker 6: quarter pretty much.
Speaker 2: The new ones. There's right, there's new ones that have all.
Speaker 6: I don't like the residents because you try and tip
Speaker 6: with them and they're like, hey, cheap skate. I'm like, no,
Speaker 6: this is four dollars. I swear I'm not giving you
Speaker 6: one dollar. So you have to announce hey, and don't
Speaker 6: forget later. If this is in your pocket, this is
Speaker 6: a dollar, okay on my Canadian you.
Speaker 5: Have to learn to flick it off your thumb like
Speaker 5: from the fifties and be.
Speaker 2: Like it's too big, it's not too bits. Form it
Speaker 2: the yeah, the these these are the old Kennedy ones,
Speaker 2: the old Eisenhower ones. Fifty dollars.
Speaker 3: Yes, those ones.
Speaker 2: So for some reason those are worthwhile for me to
Speaker 2: stick it about.
Speaker 6: I have a collection of those and I might be
Speaker 6: able to help you out with that Delaware quarter.
Speaker 3: I'm not kidding.
Speaker 6: It doesn't have to be a specific year or just
Speaker 6: Delaware that's staying on it.
Speaker 2: I think it was. I think they were just looking
Speaker 2: for Delaware.
Speaker 6: I really do think I have one. Okay, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: it's a nice guest.
Speaker 2: You want to complete the thing fran with. Maybe she'll
Speaker 2: come back. Maybe she'll be like to you up and solving.
Speaker 4: Don't move, Chris, Chris, we have to finish this.
Speaker 3: Some guy following me.
Speaker 2: You're on a bird scooter. That's how I picture you.
Speaker 4: Does Andy's mom cook?
Speaker 2: She does? She likes to bake. Yeah. Yeah. So when
Speaker 2: we sort of she has arthritis and like these muscle spasms.
Speaker 2: So we're trying to get her pain meds, right hilariously,
Speaker 2: she keeps she doesn't want to get addicted to pain meds.
Speaker 2: And I was like, now's the time, now just double down. Yes,
Speaker 2: it's you know. She's like, I want to go down
Speaker 2: on my norco and just sort of try to figure
Speaker 2: out to wait. And I'm like, maybe meditate. I was like,
Speaker 2: stop talking, take another bills. Meditates?
Speaker 3: Yeah, my dad is.
Speaker 6: He mentions the opioid crisis multiple times a day, and
Speaker 6: I'm just happy that he found those and smoking his
Speaker 6: bong in the garage and it because he's had he
Speaker 6: has the same thing. It looks like he's pulling a
Speaker 6: Martin Short routine when he has coffee. It just it
Speaker 6: shakes and coffee goes everywhere. And I'm like that looked
Speaker 6: purposeful because it's hilarious. But yeah, that's the only thing
Speaker 6: that helps or narcotics. You just can't take twelve in
Speaker 6: a day.
Speaker 2: Right, And he's and she's not an addictive personality. I'm
Speaker 2: just like, I'm constantly like how many you got? Yeah,
Speaker 2: and so real.
Speaker 5: Well, but the point you're making is so true where
Speaker 5: it's just like, if you've made it to the point
Speaker 5: where you uh live with your family and your wife
Speaker 5: is gone and you've got some fucking narcos, go to
Speaker 5: town and you don't have to come back from town
Speaker 5: because we got you. We will literally put you in bed,
Speaker 5: like go be high.
Speaker 2: If you be high, please be high. That's the yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 2: take a break, take a break, and then you know,
Speaker 2: and try to figure out the exact right doses where
Speaker 2: you could stand for twenty minutes or forty minutes and
Speaker 2: make some sour dough bread. And then you're like, dude,
Speaker 2: I made some sour dough bread. You know that's what
Speaker 2: I She would love that?
Speaker 3: Is she open too?
Speaker 6: Because my dad, my whole life had I don't think
Speaker 6: he had ever tried weed.
Speaker 3: And I'm not kidding.
Speaker 6: He goes down to the garage and smokes out of
Speaker 6: a hunter's orange bong and rip set of bread patties
Speaker 6: and then tells stories and giggles and loses track of
Speaker 6: the story like I love watching him be high. It's
Speaker 6: the best thing for someone retiree to get into.
Speaker 3: I love it. Yes, it's all the old You did
Speaker 3: get high, she really did.
Speaker 2: She used to be a bit of a stony magoo,
Speaker 2: but she hasn't been. Uh, she's stony Magoo.
Speaker 6: She would walk off the edge of the building until
Speaker 6: very specific.
Speaker 2: Sorry, it was a pleasure of the next right, She's right, yes,
Speaker 2: never never hit that.
Speaker 6: Just because we know right now, the three of us
Speaker 6: know what we're talking about, but no one knows.
Speaker 3: About mister Magoo.
Speaker 6: Voiced of course by mister Howell on Gilligan's Island. I'm
Speaker 6: going to tape that step talking about this because Jackiet's frozen.
Speaker 4: Jackie's frozen, so we're just going to power through this.
Speaker 3: Mister yes, she's Oh you're good.
Speaker 2: Here's the good news is, individually, uh whatever that thirty
Speaker 2: seconds was, we're all going to have some real good commentary.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, they should blend it all perfectly together.
Speaker 5: We're just all talking at the same time.
Speaker 2: We did clap, so there is hope.
Speaker 6: That's why we clap's and whoever, whoever we choose will
Speaker 6: be considered the winner of that freeze.
Speaker 3: That's ready the games begin. Because I was really.
Speaker 2: Talking the word off, word off. Are you guys doing wordle?
Speaker 2: I don't know why. I'm just curious.
Speaker 3: I forget to do it. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I had good luck with it in the beginning, and
Speaker 6: I quickly realized the addiction because it's not easy, and
Speaker 6: there's a sense of accomplishment. When one is easy for you,
Speaker 6: you take it personally and makes your whole day better.
Speaker 3: Maybe I should get back into it. I've been every
Speaker 3: little reasons to make my day better.
Speaker 5: My sister and my dad were into it. But I
Speaker 5: honestly think it's just because everyone liked it so much
Speaker 5: at the same.
Speaker 4: Time that might give it a chary nature.
Speaker 5: I was just like, no, thanks, I'll do this later
Speaker 5: when no one else is doing Yeah.
Speaker 6: Now it's a perfect time to get into where it'll
Speaker 6: work because everybody's op it.
Speaker 5: You. I can't even because no one talks about it anymore.
Speaker 5: But my question is this is it. It's not an
Speaker 5: app because there's a ton of like fake wordal apps
Speaker 5: trying to make money off of it.
Speaker 4: It's a website. Is that correct?
Speaker 2: Yes? Okay? And then and then the New York Times
Speaker 2: I think bought it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 2: So it was like twelve seconds into it being popular.
Speaker 2: The guy who made wordle for his wife as a
Speaker 2: fun thing made a scroogewik duck pile of money. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and he was like, whatever, and do it every want
Speaker 2: with it. I'm gonna I'm gonna go build her a
Speaker 2: picnic table.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go make pool filled with delaware quarters that
Speaker 6: you get swim in.
Speaker 2: Right. But Andy does it every day and uh and
Speaker 2: sometimes I'll be walking by his computer and he'll go
Speaker 2: help me, and so that's me right.
Speaker 6: There is a movie still version where it just shows
Speaker 6: a quick photo, usually a landscape, without any characters from
Speaker 6: a movie.
Speaker 3: And I was I only see it when I see my.
Speaker 6: Friends that play pool down here at Little Joy where
Speaker 6: I got a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a bar. Yeah, I go to play pool.
Speaker 3: Stop calling me a drunk.
Speaker 4: You guys, But I don't.
Speaker 3: Know the name of the site. But it's the same thing.
Speaker 6: A guy made a website and you have to log
Speaker 6: onto the website and you have to first know that
Speaker 6: website's name.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 6: I only play along when someone says what movie is this?
Speaker 6: And I'm like, oh, easy, there's no stakes and guessing
Speaker 6: for someone else, that's right. Yeah, anything, Yeah, And so
Speaker 6: I'm way into it. Yeah, finally raised by a TV
Speaker 6: paying off.
Speaker 2: I love that you're way into it, as if you
Speaker 2: pass by. Yes, but yeah, a lot of things to happen.
Speaker 4: But then he's super into it.
Speaker 5: My dad plays the My sister and my dad both
Speaker 5: are now doing Mortal. But before that, my dad really
Speaker 5: was into the word scramble in the newspaper, which is
Speaker 5: where like the letters are all scrambled, obviously, and then
Speaker 5: they then there's circles, and then if you solve all
Speaker 5: five you can write the sentence. Then there's a scrambled
Speaker 5: sentence that you have to write, or a scrambled clue.
Speaker 5: It's been in the newspaper since I think the sixties,
Speaker 5: like it's super old. I just thought it was really funny,
Speaker 5: Like the word scramble, the daily Jumble is what it's
Speaker 5: to write. My dad's been playing that for a really
Speaker 5: long time. No one gave a shit. Suddenly wordle comes
Speaker 5: out and it's like, this is amazing, and it's like
Speaker 5: it's literally the jumble. It's basically the same thing. It's
Speaker 5: just a it's like the app.
Speaker 4: Version of it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and this guy probably wasn't trying to steal it.
Speaker 6: He was just making it easier for his wife to
Speaker 6: do it. And then New York Times was like, hey,
Speaker 6: we'll steal it. But yeah, it was already a thing, but.
Speaker 2: Somebody had to write code, and before it was someone
Speaker 2: just circles. Yeah, the old they used to just draw
Speaker 2: circles with the occasional Well, they.
Speaker 5: Were smart enough to get it out of the newspaper,
Speaker 5: which is, as we know, a dying.
Speaker 2: Like, right, did you see that? I guess the guy
Speaker 2: who drew draws or rights Dilbert is being canceled, so
Speaker 2: he'll be playing stadiums. But he just said, uh, he
Speaker 2: just said that. One hundred and seventy seven No, he
Speaker 2: didn't say it said seventy seven newspapers canceled my cartoon yesterday,
Speaker 2: and Lori kil Martin of course screenshot it and then wrote,
Speaker 2: we all know that there's only fourteen newspapers left. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I thought I would explain her joke.
Speaker 6: Right, I saw that joke. What did what had old
Speaker 6: Dilbert he just got canceled for?
Speaker 2: Yeah? There was he was. He was complaining about the
Speaker 2: environmental investing the fact that a lot of those groups
Speaker 2: these are people you know, you know when you got
Speaker 2: a lot of money and you put it in a
Speaker 2: fun a mutual fund, right, so there's there's mutual funds
Speaker 2: that are dedicated to being socially responsible or ecologically responsible
Speaker 2: or environmentally helpful. And uh, the guy who writes a
Speaker 2: Druss Dilbert thinks is that stuff.
Speaker 6: Because he doesn't like environmentalists because you need to cut
Speaker 6: down trees to print up his cartoon and all the many,
Speaker 6: many many existing print newspapers.
Speaker 5: Right right, But you know the truth of that story
Speaker 5: is that one newspaper it's called like Lee whatever, then
Speaker 5: it's the name Lee is in there somewhere. There are
Speaker 5: just seventy seven newspapers that this one company owns, and
Speaker 5: this company decided to get rid of all cartoons and
Speaker 5: all like that whole page. So the Dilbert guy was
Speaker 5: making it about that he personally is getting canceled, and
Speaker 5: that's not the.
Speaker 4: Case at all.
Speaker 5: It's he's basically lying. It's just like he's canceled. So
Speaker 5: is Snoopy, so's Marmaduke. Everybody got canceled. They're not insane.
Speaker 2: Yeh. Billy is crying in Family Circus right now.
Speaker 4: And then he is running around perforated.
Speaker 6: I'm also a visiting the ghost of his grandma and
Speaker 6: some vague mention of God.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: None of those other cartoonists got mentioned or a nod
Speaker 6: thrown at them in office Space. Wasn't the Stephen Root's
Speaker 6: character and office Space based on Dilbert?
Speaker 3: I think so?
Speaker 2: It might have been, Yeah, I will say.
Speaker 3: In the credits had said that in.
Speaker 2: A lateral story. Family Circus reminds me that matt Fugate
Speaker 2: who I should have gone and got. Initially, after the
Speaker 2: Mace story, he used to do a joke about how
Speaker 2: much he hated Family Circus because whenever it rained, Billy
Speaker 2: would say, God is crying, So.
Speaker 6: Matthew, they had another weird one where it was like
Speaker 6: Grandma went to go visit her friend in heaven diabetes
Speaker 6: or something like.
Speaker 3: I was like, that is off color.
Speaker 5: Come on, Bill, sure that one was real, because you
Speaker 5: know there were people that were replacing the captions on
Speaker 5: Fami circus and they would be like a nietzschee quote
Speaker 5: but a family.
Speaker 6: I bet that's what this was. And I fell for it,
Speaker 6: like they wouldn't make it.
Speaker 4: Could be Tell me to look it up. It could be.
Speaker 5: It could That one sounds like it could go either way.
Speaker 2: True that that does sound like it could have been,
Speaker 2: could have been a real one. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 5: Linda Berry the cartoonist and writer and Jackie. I'm sure
Speaker 5: you know who she is, right, yep, ye love her
Speaker 5: so much. She told the story Chris, not that you know.
Speaker 6: What I was gonna say, but she so.
Speaker 5: She is a you know, like kind of an underground cartoonist.
Speaker 5: If you've never seen her stuff, you should look it up.
Speaker 5: It's really awesome and really well written. And she's just
Speaker 5: kind of genius. And she was a friend of Matt
Speaker 5: green Eggs. They went to ever Green College at the
Speaker 5: same time.
Speaker 4: Like whatever. But she tells a story about the first.
Speaker 5: Time she got to go to a comics like comic
Speaker 5: convention or whatever, not not not comic con but like
Speaker 5: four illustrators. Yeah, exactly, and there she is.
Speaker 6: Uh, you know why I have this book? Karen que
Speaker 6: led it to me. Yes, and you're bookmarks in it.
Speaker 6: You're a huge fan of.
Speaker 5: Have bookmarks for all of the good ones that I
Speaker 5: want people to read first if they're going to if
Speaker 5: they're going to get all that awesome.
Speaker 6: Well, don't take it personally, because in my defense, you
Speaker 6: did hand me a book, but I am. I am
Speaker 6: going to read the bookmark months because that's a good
Speaker 6: place to start. I'm sorry that I haven't read it yet.
Speaker 6: You gave me this five, six, seven years ago.
Speaker 5: You know actually that me giving it to you saved
Speaker 5: it because all the books that I brought to when
Speaker 5: I moved into this new house, I did an unpack
Speaker 5: for like a month because I was just being lazy.
Speaker 5: I left everything in the garage and the air conditioner
Speaker 5: broke and flooded the garage and I had to throw
Speaker 5: away all my oh wow, that's everything was like soaked
Speaker 5: and then had mildew on. So now your own book, Yeah,
Speaker 5: I have had to like rebuild the I mean, I
Speaker 5: completely forgot, so that's all I have it here. It's
Speaker 5: like leftover but okay. So Linda Barry, that author, goes
Speaker 5: to this illus, you know, illustrator comics whatever, and she
Speaker 5: sees Billy Kean, who is Bill Keene's son, who was
Speaker 5: Billy in the Family Circus comic strip. So Bill Keen
Speaker 5: had died, and Linda Barry talks about how she loved
Speaker 5: single panel cartoons as a kid, and she loved Family Circus.
Speaker 5: So she went up to Billy Keen to say, I
Speaker 5: loved your father's comic. It's so inspiring to me. And
Speaker 5: she's as she sees him, she starts crying and she
Speaker 5: could not stop crying.
Speaker 2: So she was like I.
Speaker 5: Was talking through the tears, but I was like, she
Speaker 5: was so overwhelmed by how much like that it was
Speaker 5: Billy in real life standing there, that she just lost
Speaker 5: her shit and was like he had to hold her
Speaker 5: while she's sobbed because she was meeting Billy and the.
Speaker 6: Scat had passed and it was I didn't know it
Speaker 6: was like to dedicated to his kids his whole life.
Speaker 3: That's really sweet.
Speaker 6: I would cry too, not that this is a crying contest,
Speaker 6: something that I hold nightly here at my apartment.
Speaker 3: I'm kidding.
Speaker 4: It's very doing about emotions with.
Speaker 3: It's like, can I cry harder than last night? That
Speaker 3: is so sweet? I love it. I love that story.
Speaker 2: Speaking of cartoonists, I went to a wedding on Cape
Speaker 2: Cod in June and there was an Edward Gory museum
Speaker 2: and it's his old house. So we got to wander
Speaker 2: around his house. Yes, and on the wall was the
Speaker 2: menu and from the diner that he used to eat
Speaker 2: at like three times a week, and a waffle from
Speaker 2: that diner and what a weirdos a classic weirdess. And
Speaker 2: so then after that museum, Andy and I went to
Speaker 2: lunch at the at the diner that he used to
Speaker 2: go to and it was delicious.
Speaker 4: I love that guy.
Speaker 3: The waffle it was just pinned to the wall.
Speaker 2: It was in plexiglass. It was like it was like
Speaker 2: a diorama of your favorite waffle and enjoy. His cousin
Speaker 2: is the curator of it. And I was like, well,
Speaker 2: we should buy stuff at the gift shop and he's like, well,
Speaker 2: I have all the books, and I'm like, buy more,
Speaker 2: buy more books. We wanted to still be here and
Speaker 2: we want to go there. Yeah. We got a T
Speaker 2: shirt for my mother in law and she woren't. She
Speaker 2: was like, who is this guy? And then we handed
Speaker 2: her the alphabet and she laughed and she was like,
Speaker 2: so dark.
Speaker 4: It's so dark. I love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I love As a child those books, I would just
Speaker 5: be like, I can't believe what I'm looking at.
Speaker 6: This magic John dor and I took a train down
Speaker 6: to San Diego and did stand up for illustrators and
Speaker 6: Caricature Artists convention, and a lot of them had comic books.
Speaker 3: And they were the best audience.
Speaker 6: Because any visual thing that I give, I just assume
Speaker 6: an audience is going to go along with me for
Speaker 6: and sometimes it's too abstract or something, and this whole
Speaker 6: audience was into it. I've never had more fun, just
Speaker 6: like challenging myself to do stuff that requires you to
Speaker 6: visualize it.
Speaker 3: They were the best.
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
Speaker 3: I had so much fun.
Speaker 6: And one of them did a very unflattering caricature of me,
Speaker 6: and I love it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're both yeah, it looks just like yeah right.
Speaker 2: They found that thing about me that I don't like
Speaker 2: and they accentuated it.
Speaker 4: And they made it they made it gigantic.
Speaker 2: I was at the improv last night and there was
Speaker 2: a young man who talked to me who literally introduced
Speaker 2: himself by saying, my life, Oh we work together doing
Speaker 2: doing this one gig on a rooftop in Hollywood, and
Speaker 2: my life is on fire. Like those were like the
Speaker 2: two things he said. And I said, oh, I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: I don't remember you. And what is your name? And
Speaker 2: then he told me his name, because I never remember
Speaker 2: anyone's name. And I was like, oh, well, I must
Speaker 2: have worked with him, and if I worked with him
Speaker 2: at that gig, he's probably very funny. And I was like, well,
Speaker 2: do you need to talk about it? And why would
Speaker 2: I say that the floodgates over?
Speaker 3: Oh god?
Speaker 6: And so he did not mean that like his career
Speaker 6: was on fire.
Speaker 3: He said he in.
Speaker 2: His car and he just got fired from Instacart.
Speaker 6: Oh that kind yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so and he had just he had been in
Speaker 2: jail last year in Brisbane, Australia. And I was like,
Speaker 2: what's it? And so he just and then he said,
Speaker 2: and last month I opened for Bill Burr. And I
Speaker 2: was like, what a weird I'm so sorry all these
Speaker 2: this is weird. And I was like, so at least,
Speaker 2: and he's like, not at least, everything's horrible, and he
Speaker 2: keeps going. And then two other people come up, and
Speaker 2: they're the people that book that rooftop thing that he
Speaker 2: said that we both did. All of a sudden he
Speaker 2: took off and I was like, oh, do you remember him?
Speaker 2: He said that we worked together, and the woman the
Speaker 2: book just said I we don't. He's never worked that gig.
Speaker 2: And it turns out he was made of lies and
Speaker 2: he was weirdness. Yeah, he didn't open for bil Bert.
Speaker 2: He was on a show with Bill Burt.
Speaker 3: Oh wow.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I don't know why you would.
Speaker 3: Lie saw this, He saw you on that rooftop or something.
Speaker 2: Right, He must have just was hanging out.
Speaker 3: I think you should have amazed him.
Speaker 2: I think you.
Speaker 5: Should have amazed him with money.
Speaker 2: I might have wanted something. I'm uncertain, gas, cash, whatever
Speaker 2: it was. I got walked to my car, So.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could have been hanging out there.
Speaker 2: Well, no, because every time I walked away from anything
Speaker 2: up and.
Speaker 5: He's like, I thought of one more packet that I
Speaker 5: need to tell you about.
Speaker 2: And I felt I was like, is it bad? Are
Speaker 2: you okay? And then and then I was like, well,
Speaker 2: I have to go do a set, and he was like, oh,
Speaker 2: I was just going to tell you one more thing,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, no, sirius, I'm up next. I just
Speaker 2: gotta go, Jackie.
Speaker 6: I'm only telling you because no one told me about it.
Speaker 6: There's a up the stairs. You just need to cross
Speaker 6: that rope, but you have the right to do.
Speaker 3: So. There's a beautiful green room up there.
Speaker 6: With comfortable chairs with zero people, and you can then
Speaker 6: walk down the stairs to get on stage.
Speaker 3: So and just get on stage because I.
Speaker 6: Always I make eye contact with all of the maceeable
Speaker 6: faces and you can bypass that.
Speaker 3: I last time. It made it a lot easier, right.
Speaker 2: And what's weird is that. So I got off stage
Speaker 2: and he popped back up, and then I was like, well,
Speaker 2: I have to have an early morning. I have to
Speaker 2: drive solving and and then I've heard that a thousand
Speaker 2: times and it's only two and a half hours, so
Speaker 2: it's not really that early.
Speaker 3: I like to get here for sunrise.
Speaker 2: And uh but yeah, so I I never know how
Speaker 2: to end those conversations. So I was like, he's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's just you know, it's really you know, things have
Speaker 2: would go good and then they've been going to horrible.
Speaker 2: I was like, do you want to hug? And I'm insane,
Speaker 2: I've lost my mind, so I get him a hug
Speaker 2: and then I was like, somebody walked into my car.
Speaker 5: Okay, but please remember that, like you're hugging him and
Speaker 5: he's reaching into your pocket take your wallet?
Speaker 4: Right, you don't know this person. I don't know them.
Speaker 2: Ship right, I don't. And it's weirdly because the last
Speaker 2: three nights I keep doing these gigs and so many
Speaker 2: I feel so bad because like everyone is like, you
Speaker 2: know me, you know we worked together. There was a
Speaker 2: guy I recorded a dork forest with him that day
Speaker 2: an hour on Zoom. I saw him that night and
Speaker 2: he had to introduce himself and I was like, I
Speaker 2: am so sorry, and I just I don't know why.
Speaker 2: I have like six hundred slots in my brain. You
Speaker 2: two are in it. Get this. Some people are in
Speaker 2: it that are dead, and I'm like, get out of there,
Speaker 2: get out out of my I need those I'll.
Speaker 5: Never run into unless something very specific happened.
Speaker 2: Not need it right.
Speaker 6: It's important to recognize ghosts when they present themselves the
Speaker 6: otherwise they get mad.
Speaker 5: And that that's why they get and that's why they.
Speaker 2: That's straight to me.
Speaker 5: It's like, oh my god, please, we want that books
Speaker 5: dot dot and that's why they haunts their offended.
Speaker 2: I would love it if a ghost just showed up
Speaker 2: and I was like, Sage found it.
Speaker 4: Just like anything, it works, Sage Spray.
Speaker 2: Oh like a Mace. Oh yeah, I'd be like Mace.
Speaker 2: But I'd be like, I'm gonna think you. You're not
Speaker 2: gonna sage me, Sage, Sage. You've been saged.
Speaker 3: Last time or maybe the first time.
Speaker 6: You were on our podcast where we had a fun
Speaker 6: conversation about hip hop that we like. And I'm and
Speaker 6: I think I admitted there isn't any new hip hop
Speaker 6: that I like, but I've there are these guys. They're
Speaker 6: in their sixties. They're from Ireland, and generally I try
Speaker 6: to steer clear of any white guy parody rap, like
Speaker 6: comedy rap. But these guys are serious and they're old
Speaker 6: men would like uh high dad jeans and spinner like.
Speaker 6: They are conscious of how they look, but they are
Speaker 6: seriously good rappers and it's hilarious.
Speaker 4: It'sous.
Speaker 3: The Northern Boys. Did you see that.
Speaker 4: It's called the Northern nor they're from northern Land.
Speaker 6: Oh, it's the way it's there from there must be
Speaker 6: from Wales.
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, I know about the different accents.
Speaker 6: It's not north yeah, yeah, oh no not yeah, but yeah,
Speaker 6: I didn't mean whales. Uh Liver Liver, not Liverpool where
Speaker 6: I know that they. I thought that it was a
Speaker 6: Millie Vanilly thing and it wasn't the real guys. And
Speaker 6: then I found a live concert and it's all rabid
Speaker 6: young fans and I just love.
Speaker 3: What I found.
Speaker 5: He there's one the old guy with the shaved head
Speaker 5: that goes, now, I'm going to go take a number three.
Speaker 5: That's a piss and a ship and a wank and a.
Speaker 5: I was like, that's what that's kind of where I
Speaker 5: hit the video and I was like.
Speaker 4: What am I?
Speaker 6: I love to a sad old man all they are?
Speaker 6: It's hilarious, yah, and the old stuff. It got put
Speaker 6: up like five days ago and it's already in you know,
Speaker 6: a quarter of a million views when I found it
Speaker 6: last night on Twitter. That's probably where you found it, Karen, Yeah,
Speaker 6: it was like fifty thousand views.
Speaker 3: We're at the ground floor on these guys.
Speaker 2: Because they're in their sixties.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so they wrap about doing sketchy drugs and how
Speaker 6: all their ex wives are going to be happy when
Speaker 6: they're dead. It's self deprecating and that's what I always
Speaker 6: want and what's missing from hip hop for me is
Speaker 6: like that early nineties, like self deprecating.
Speaker 3: What's hard to find at the time.

Speaker 3: It was so and for me it was a word

Speaker 6: four year old thing with everyone.
Speaker 3: It is. It is amazing.

Speaker 2: marble stuff much less you know.
Speaker 3: Slots.
Speaker 2: I have six hundred slots. They are monumentally full, and
Speaker 2: a lot of them are British detective constable inspectors. And
Speaker 2: I've decided we have two dogs down, two little chu
Speaker 2: Ala mixes. It's that when I walk them, it is
Speaker 2: the tiny Iditarrod and but they but I decided I
Speaker 2: want to write a book where they are both constables
Speaker 2: and they're solving crimes because they're constantly smelling things and
Speaker 2: ruining crime scenes by peeing on things. And uh, it's
Speaker 2: DC I Gordy and Constable Tyson.
Speaker 4: Are they a boy and girl or the two boys?
Speaker 2: Two boys? And they're both nine years old? But Chris
Speaker 2: had Tyson since he was a puppy, and we got
Speaker 2: Gordy a year and a half ago when from the pound.
Speaker 4: Gordy is the best name.
Speaker 2: Gordy is a great name. Gordy. We have so much
Speaker 2: in common, Gordy and I. Who knew that I would
Speaker 2: have so much in common with the middle aged at chewo.
Speaker 3: Yeah, an older cha.
Speaker 6: Older dogs in general need to have like mid seventies
Speaker 6: uncle names, I think.
Speaker 4: Do you mean like Frank Frank doctor Frank.
Speaker 3: Frank is perfect? Ye, Frank and Gordy are great.
Speaker 2: Well, they should have coffee over at the Bob's.
Speaker 5: Big Favorite and go complain about how they they won't
Speaker 5: use their coupons.
Speaker 2: You know, I once saw Tony Curtis at that Bob's
Speaker 2: Big Boy. Really did you? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Like it in the late nineties. What'd you say to him?
Speaker 2: I literally just stared at him like a goon. You
Speaker 2: would have would have been like Billy, I just cried.
Speaker 2: I just cried. He had to hold me. No, I
Speaker 2: was like, I loved you in that shitty movie where
Speaker 2: you were a sultan's child, but you're really not even Arabic,
Speaker 2: Italian or Jewish? What are you, sir?
Speaker 4: Wait? Is he Jamie Lee? Curtis is done?
Speaker 2: I believe so yeah Curtis, yeah yeah, and Ganely that's right, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that was. I never saw Bob Hope. I used to say,
Speaker 2: after I saw Tony Curtis, people go, oh, yeah, Bob
Speaker 2: Hope goes there sometimes late at night. And I would
Speaker 2: sometimes be driving back from a set and I would
Speaker 2: just stop at Bob's Big Boy to see if Bob
Speaker 2: Hope was there, so.
Speaker 3: You could go in and kick him in the shin.
Speaker 2: No, because I was a giant nerd and I loved
Speaker 2: I love those being crossby Bob Hope, even though they're
Speaker 2: into Luca Lake. There's that church that his infidelity built. Yes,
Speaker 2: he had to deal with his wife that every time
Speaker 2: he cheated on his wife, he would donate to that
Speaker 2: Catholic church because he was Anglican, kidding, and he was Catholic,
Speaker 2: and and so that church is the biggest church in
Speaker 2: the whole wide world. It's a cathedral, it.
Speaker 5: Looks and the whole outside has like this ornate what
Speaker 5: was I was going to say that kind of almost
Speaker 5: like Rococo front where there's there's all kinds of almost
Speaker 5: like plastered sculpture all around the front. It's so fancy.
Speaker 5: And it's because he just kept giving them money, because.
Speaker 6: He's how I want to hear about Bob Hope fucking
Speaker 6: every day.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, they have an auditorium and a gym
Speaker 2: and uh like it keeps going like a whole row
Speaker 2: of it. And then yeah, because I used to drink
Speaker 2: over at the uh the steak Joint with y which
Speaker 2: was on the shim right there, the joy.
Speaker 3: The word joint.
Speaker 2: Steak joints called the steak Joint, and I would go.
Speaker 2: I would walk down Whipple up to Lancasham and because
Speaker 2: then I could get drunk enough that I could stumble
Speaker 2: home all by myself. Yeah, and I would pretend that
Speaker 2: I was going for dinner. It was great. I would
Speaker 2: lie to myself. It's like doing pilates.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I love their side.
Speaker 6: You you could have stumbled there. That's stumbling distance from
Speaker 6: your old place.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yep, that was that actually would be just right down.
Speaker 4: I would just be coming from the other.
Speaker 3: To take side streets. It's a safe stumble who.
Speaker 2: Doesn't want to save stumble, So you're sitting. I was
Speaker 2: sitting with the career drugs at the bar, and that's
Speaker 2: when I heard that story, and I was like, is
Speaker 2: that true? When the guys like I swear it's true.
Speaker 2: And I didn't believe every story I heard at that bar,
Speaker 2: but that one I did because of how big that
Speaker 2: church is.
Speaker 5: And you know what's funny, Bob Hope, his old like
Speaker 5: estate would have been on my path if I was
Speaker 5: to stumble down to the and meet you at the
Speaker 5: stake joint with a y and when I was moving
Speaker 5: over there. The last neighborhood watch meeting I went to
Speaker 5: in my old neighborhood, which was when I lived off
Speaker 5: of michel Terina in Silver Lake. I went to this
Speaker 5: neighborhood watch because a girl got her purse snatched like
Speaker 5: a car drove by and took her purse off of
Speaker 5: her arm as she was walking to her apartment directly
Speaker 5: in front of our apartment. So we had to open
Speaker 5: the door and pull her in, and she was like
Speaker 5: crying and it was really weird. So I went to
Speaker 5: this neighborhood watch meeting even though we were moving. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and so one lady's like, how come I've never met
Speaker 5: you before. She's the old lady that had lived in
Speaker 5: the neighborhood for literally fifty years.
Speaker 4: And I was like, oh, I just live in an apartment.
Speaker 5: I thought these weren't for non permanent people, and I'm
Speaker 5: actually moving to tuluc Lake and she goes, I used
Speaker 5: to be Bob Hoop's assistant. And I was like, oh really,
Speaker 5: And she starts telling me these stories. But then she goes, yeah,
Speaker 5: but he was a terrible man and he was all
Speaker 5: hands and she goes, one time he had me taking
Speaker 5: notes from me. You just went like this, and then
Speaker 5: this old lady grabbed my boobs.
Speaker 2: It's like.
Speaker 5: It was it was at the end of the neighborhood
Speaker 5: watch part. It wasn't like people were standing around, but
Speaker 5: she and it was purely for the story, like I think,
Speaker 5: for just the impact of the story. But she just
Speaker 5: was like and I was just like, what a son
Speaker 5: of a bitch.
Speaker 2: Pass the son of a bitch? And it's weird because
Speaker 2: it's it's like, is the nudity needed in a movie. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't think you could have just explained that, lady,
Speaker 2: you didn't need to actually grab me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just say it.
Speaker 2: I get it. I know what it means. And he
Speaker 2: goes to our neighborhood watch meetings and he said that
Speaker 2: he ever, if he ever runs for office, Uh, what's
Speaker 2: his only platform is that you get to park in
Speaker 2: front of your own home. And he said that that's
Speaker 2: what everyone is pissed off about. He's like, I would
Speaker 2: people would give away all of their rights if they
Speaker 2: could park right in front of their house. And I
Speaker 2: was like, all right, I'm never going to that.
Speaker 4: No, it's all old both that want to grab your tips.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Boy, that is amazing that she did. I guess that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a testament to how bad he was if
Speaker 6: she thought that wasn't.
Speaker 2: Bad, right, right?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Or yeah, or how bad it was.
Speaker 5: I mean, I think it's like a sign of the
Speaker 5: times where it was like, hey, you want to be
Speaker 5: in showbiz, well you got to give something up.
Speaker 2: It was like that, right, And it's bodily autonomy basically
Speaker 2: like not being bruised and bad.
Speaker 4: But yeah, you're a weird boss.
Speaker 2: You know. And I was. I talked to kil Martin
Speaker 2: about this all the time, about how what we tolerate
Speaker 2: and what the like. The I talked to the twenties
Speaker 2: and thirties a comics and I'll tell him some story
Speaker 2: that I swore to God was funny, and you know,
Speaker 2: they just they're like, what the fuck happened? Are you okay?
Speaker 2: And then what happened? I was like, well, we went
Speaker 2: to breakfast.
Speaker 4: And it was different back then it was.
Speaker 5: I should also say that old Lady could have been
Speaker 5: completely crazy and never met.
Speaker 3: Bob Hope in her life.
Speaker 2: A legend.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, very alleged. I had no proof. Yeah, always
Speaker 4: that felt important, so important to say.
Speaker 6: It's anecdotal, you guys, Yeah, you Jackie, you need to
Speaker 6: check your pockets after all your interactions.
Speaker 2: Right, They could have put drugs in there, They have
Speaker 2: taken money out. They might be passing. I might be
Speaker 2: a safe drop, like a place.
Speaker 4: She's an ignorant mule. She's been muling with no realization.
Speaker 2: Bran Bamford is doing a joke where one of the
Speaker 2: bunch lies is they're stupid angels and I love them. No, No,
Speaker 2: they're they're big dumb angels, not stupid yeah, yeah, two
Speaker 2: strong dumb angels as it's nice. That is nice.
Speaker 3: That's a good idea for an app though, if you
Speaker 3: need a mule.
Speaker 2: I like that. I more like the idea that like,
Speaker 2: like spies will just use me like a like an
Speaker 2: old willow, Like you'll just be like you know that
Speaker 2: should will be over.
Speaker 5: Grab the notebook, grab the notebook and write it down
Speaker 5: and solving old willow.
Speaker 4: Dropping things into your v next sh.
Speaker 3: To commemorate things.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember what they call those those drop
Speaker 2: those safe drop places for that that spies would do.
Speaker 2: They're like they're not safety deposit box. N't safety deposit box, right,
Speaker 2: It's not a dead.
Speaker 4: Drop, a cold drop something like that.
Speaker 2: I think it's a dead drop, Thank you very much.
Speaker 6: I am.
Speaker 2: I am a bit of a dead drop. You can
Speaker 2: always catch up with me if I've moved, and I
Speaker 2: probably haven't. You could probably catch up with me and
Speaker 2: rifle in my pockets.
Speaker 5: Also thinking just thinking about because it's staying with me.
Speaker 5: The story of the guy that was like my life
Speaker 5: is on fire, which like that's immediately three red flags.
Speaker 5: Someone's like I did a show with you, my life
Speaker 5: is on fire. That idea that that guy just his
Speaker 5: story was getting worse and worse, and I think normally
Speaker 5: people would go like, do you need money? Do you
Speaker 5: want to borrow my something like that, and Jackie's like, uh,
Speaker 5: do you need a hug?
Speaker 4: The perfect spy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're just.
Speaker 5: Like, I don't know what you want and I can't
Speaker 5: figure it out, so forget me.
Speaker 6: Let me give you instead some close physical contact. Yeah,
Speaker 6: it reminds me.
Speaker 2: Do you remember Javanka Steel. Yes, okay, so I Javanca
Speaker 2: Steele and I had like a fight, like an open
Speaker 2: bike altercation where we yallered at each other or we
Speaker 2: were grumpy at each other or something, and we both
Speaker 2: left and I was like, I don't like her. And
Speaker 2: I saw her like two or three weeks later, and
Speaker 2: I completely forgot and and it really summed up how
Speaker 2: the fact that I forget that I don't like people
Speaker 2: or that I'm mad at them. And so I remember
Speaker 2: seeing her, oh Chevalcus Steele, and she was still mad
Speaker 2: at me. She got to be mean to me again,
Speaker 2: and then eventually she forgot about it too, and then
Speaker 2: we were fine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's funny because I joke about it.
Speaker 6: I'm I worry about memory loss but but I never
Speaker 6: forget the people that have wronged me. And that's my
Speaker 6: only like the long list of grievances from decades ago,
Speaker 6: elementary school kids that wronged me, I still think about them,
Speaker 6: and I'm like my brain, I'm okay, it's still intact
Speaker 6: if I still remember those people.
Speaker 4: Yes, but mine's great.
Speaker 3: For my mother in law, I remember the good things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, my mother in law refers to this. It will
Speaker 2: be pertinent at one point, but my mother in law
Speaker 2: refers to the dog as my baby and I'm his mom,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, we are not related. I am not
Speaker 2: We're just friends.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And the closest I And so I was thinking about
Speaker 2: as a I tried this on stage once and I
Speaker 2: made everyone uncomfortable, so I must rework it obviously, because
Speaker 2: I said the closest I ever came to sleeping with
Speaker 2: a dog, at which point the audience shuts down on me.
Speaker 2: And that's the opening. That's the that's a line that
Speaker 2: I thought was funny because but I think some people
Speaker 2: and then I say, because I had a crush on
Speaker 2: a guy named Dino Melli in third grade, And I said,
Speaker 2: or you named like after Dino? Like the Flintstones dog
Speaker 2: and he said, I'm Greek, leave me alone. So it's
Speaker 2: a weird story that there's something there, but there's no
Speaker 2: dog fucking joke in there. That's what I'm saying. There
Speaker 2: should be none of.
Speaker 3: That happening, and I think there should be more of them.
Speaker 5: Jackie, is this Are you getting your set ready for tonight?
Speaker 5: You have a you is tonight the night you're opening
Speaker 5: for Brian Rehan all week?
Speaker 2: Actually, I'm in Solving tonight and then Irvine, Irvine, Irvine
Speaker 2: and then ox Stard.
Speaker 3: Now that's right.
Speaker 2: It's kind of southern California. I get to, you know,
Speaker 2: drive around and he's always so fun. I mean I
Speaker 2: literally I work with him maybe three times a year
Speaker 2: and he always has to do ten minutes about politeness
Speaker 2: and it's always fun for me. Who he's mad at
Speaker 2: because they have no courtesy.
Speaker 3: I would love to see him mad.
Speaker 2: It is probably actual. Anger is chilling and very very dangerous.
Speaker 2: I've never seen oh wow, yeah, but good to see him.
Speaker 2: Yeah his stand up, his stand up comedy, anger is
Speaker 2: always a delight where he's just like he was. One
Speaker 2: of my favorite bits of his was he was standing
Speaker 2: in land at Disneyland with his kids, and an entire
Speaker 2: family skipped in front of them, and he was like,
Speaker 2: how does that happen? And he's like, fan out, kids,
Speaker 2: fan out, block block the whole way. And at one
Speaker 2: point he wanted to grab the mom's purse and just
Speaker 2: whip it. And he was like, because clearly we're living
Speaker 2: in an anarchy, and he was like, I just wanted
Speaker 2: to grab a person, just go and whip it into
Speaker 2: the next like uh, Edward scissor Hands like shrubbery. He told.
Speaker 6: A new formation you know what, and I think it
Speaker 6: needs to be addressed. You froze during the very important
Speaker 6: parts of that energy.
Speaker 5: And I don't use us as any kind of a
Speaker 5: guy or a judge of what you're going to do tonight, don't.
Speaker 3: I was only guessing where it was going.
Speaker 6: But when you when it went to Edward scissor Hands reference,
Speaker 6: I'm like, okay, I get it. I heard her straps
Speaker 6: and then I heard Edward. Just to let the audience
Speaker 6: know what what we're dealing with.
Speaker 5: So Jackie, do you have any plugs or anything like that?
Speaker 5: Because you have done your time, you have given enough
Speaker 5: for all that you need to give us.
Speaker 2: Well, let me say that I do stand up comedy,
Speaker 2: and I am going to be in Minneapolis, and then
Speaker 2: I'm going to be in Michigan, and then I'm going
Speaker 2: to be other places. But if you were to go
Speaker 2: to jackieation dot com or Familypetancestry dot com, which just
Speaker 2: lends you, leads you right to jackiecation dot com because
Speaker 2: I bought family Petancestry dot com and pointed it to
Speaker 2: jackiecation dot com because it made me laugh and I
Speaker 2: like the idea of someone thinking cat came over on
Speaker 2: the Mayflower. Anyway, so the my tour, my tour is
Speaker 2: on there and you could come. And I have a
Speaker 2: new album and a new special out and just on
Speaker 2: YouTube and on the streaming things. It's called Staycation because
Speaker 2: we were all home and my last name's Cation.
Speaker 3: I love it. That's really a perfect name. You've been
Speaker 3: holding on for a while.
Speaker 2: Right, No, it actually it was.
Speaker 4: It was one of the six hundreds, right.
Speaker 2: You would have thought, you would have thought, and I
Speaker 2: would have been holding on to that, but I thought
Speaker 2: it was a little hackey. And then I'm like, no,
Speaker 2: double down, go with it. And because I was thinking
Speaker 2: about going to get altercation and I may name all
Speaker 2: of them as puns of my name for the rest
Speaker 2: of maybe all of my album do it'll be.
Speaker 6: Like just as an alter ego, never address it, but
Speaker 6: just have a like a sinister go tea and never
Speaker 6: addressed it altered.
Speaker 4: I thought it like one of those curly mess like.
Speaker 6: The Yeah, just all tying people to the railroad tracks.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you haven't seen Jackie's stand up comedy, you
Speaker 5: you simply must. You can see it on YouTube, as
Speaker 5: she just told us about Staycation. But also if you're
Speaker 5: on TikTok, follow Jackie and watch those clips. If you
Speaker 5: just get even the smallest sample of what this woman
Speaker 5: does on stage, you will want to see her live
Speaker 5: and you will want to follow her into.
Speaker 6: The Yeah, I did that with Jackie, and we did
Speaker 6: a brewery or winery in Penaluma, and she did so
Speaker 6: well that I very very much did not want to
