But 110 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 3: then for the last five minutes and I said to 111 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 3: be pure joy and so you rip up that comment. 112 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: Yeah right, and you're famously the comment card comedian and 113 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: you're handing those up. 114 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 3: I do a lot of show I do a lot 115 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: of clubs. I love a club in general. I love 116 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: to be a member of a club. And I just 117 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 3: to dance at a club and perform at a comedy club. 118 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: Right, I'm a club and I beat the shit out 119 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: of people with a stick, right right. 120 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: Uh No, I like it's high energy up top, and 121 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 3: then that sort of slows down because no one can 122 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 3: maintain that, no sane person. But then I come back 123 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: to LA and every set is seven or ten minutes long, 124 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: and I'm. 125 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: Used to too big for your full set in total. 126 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: And are people responding to it?

Well, I'm 132 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: sure it's gonna probably tank your career. I think this 133 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: is the one that just destroys you. I said, no career, Yeah, 134 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: I said, no career. I will be in the audience filming. 135 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: I will leak it to the internet and booing and 136 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: holding my phone and just loudly fuck you.

Well, I'm excited to have you here. 138 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: The very loose theme of this podcast obviously is gifts. Dave, 139 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: what's your general feeling about gifts are you a gift 140 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: giver or you a gift receiver. Is it something you enjoy? 141 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: I would say that I'm a gift receiver. You enjoy 142 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: getting a gift? Yeah, well, I definitely do receive them, Okay, 143 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 1: you do. So you have people in your life who 144 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: care about you. So we've confirmed that really many, not many. 145 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: The gifts are seven, right, there's not a lot of 146 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: gift giving amongst thirty seven. When you get a gift, 147 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: what is it for your birthday? Yeah, and even that's 148 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: remembers giving you gifts. 149 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 3: You know, Yes, I get gifts at Christmas, right, and 150 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 3: I guess I get some gifts on my birthday. But really, okay, 151 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: when I get gifts, it's like randomly a friend is 152 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: like I thought of you and that's the best time, 153 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 3: of course, and uh I will. 154 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: Yes, I do like to get gifts. 155 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 3: I don't think it happens often because I'm in the 156 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 3: period of my life where like I'm single and I'm 157 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I was going to say a little older. 158 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 3: I'm thirty seven is not older, but it's like past 159 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 3: the age of being around people all the time, Like 160 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 3: I'm alone a lot of the time. 161 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: You could choose to just be alone forever, forever. Yes, 162 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: if I died, you wouldn't know for a while. I okay, Yeah, 163 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of things anymore because I'm 164 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: also isolating myself. So I'm hearing less and less news 165 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: from the outside. And so your death probably three weeks later. Yeah, 166 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: I would miss the funeral. Sure, Wait what, I'm sorry, 167 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: It's just you're busy, and no, I'm not busy. I 168 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: would just not hear the news. Oh, I see, And 169 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: then you know, I would hear about your Why weren't 170 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: you at Dave's funeral? I feel like you would hear 171 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 1: the news. That's interesting. So you're saying that you're so isolated. Well, 172 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: I feel like we're both so isolated. Yes, so that 173 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: creates a third isolation, which would allow me to avoid 174 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: the news of your death for weeks. Sure, I would 175 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: get to live in the world of Dave is still 176 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: alive while everyone else is grieving. You interesting, and I'm out, 177 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, Well, I'm just sitting around my apartment playing Zelda. 178 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: You know what's so. 179 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 3: Funny is that I you know, I think I think 180 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 3: what we're learning right now is that we're both. 181 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: We both have low self esteem. Oh, absolutely, you know, 182 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: this is the meeting of two men who just have 183 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: no self. That a meeting of two men. And then, dude, 184 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: if that were just randomly the end of that sentence, 185 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: that would have been so wonderful. This is the meaning 186 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: of two And then we stare at each other, just 187 00:10:58,400 --> 00:10:59,599 Speaker 1: quiet breathing. 188 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 3: Because I was imagining that I would die and then 189 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 3: no one would find the body for weeks. 190 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: Oh. Interesting. So you're slipping in your apartment, You're choking 191 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: on a peanuture, right, which is definitely how I'll die, 192 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: in some sort of microcosmic way, some sort of like wow, 193 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: that's even a death, like I bought too many napkins. 194 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 1: I don't know you could buy that way. Wow for him? Yeah, 195 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: it turns out he put on a shirt that was 196 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: too thin. There wasn't enough fabric in his house, and 197 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: it's a beautiful way to die. Yeah. 198 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 3: No, I just think that there's this interesting period in 199 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: the middle of your life where, like you, I think 200 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 3: I'm in the period of my life, the first period 201 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 3: of my life where I interact with the least amount 202 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 3: of people I will ever interact with, right, right, probably 203 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 3: like the second least amount of people, second only to 204 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 3: the very end of my life. 205 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: When people have fully you don't have children, yes, and 206 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,599 Speaker 1: it's like there's one orderly who doesn't even want to 207 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: talk to you. 208 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 3: But for me, it's for a different reason. I'm hoping 209 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 3: to outlive my kids. 210 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: Oh, not a bad idea. Yeah, maybe I want to 211 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: be the last. Okay, I think that that's an admirable goal. 212 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: Just you bring them into the world and say I'll 213 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: see you out you push them off. Yes, of course, yeah, 214 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: I don't plan on having children, but I always thought 215 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 1: that if I did, for them to receive their inheritance, 216 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: I would want them. I want to live to one 217 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen and then they have to push me 218 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 1: out of a plane. And I think that's a nice 219 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: way to get rid of the father. That's so funny, 220 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: And that's what a wonderful way to die one hundred 221 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: and fifteen falling out of a plane. Your children have 222 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: achieved their goal. They're going to get their inheritance. 223 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 3: What's so funny about that is that how you know 224 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 3: I'm thirty five, you're thirty five. Okay, So if you 225 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 3: have kids in five years, yes, and when for your 226 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 3: kids to push you, Let's say hypothetically for your kids 227 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: to push you out of a plane when you're one 228 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 3: hundred fifteen, they would be seventy five. 229 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: You want to stage seventy five year old to be 230 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 1: murdering one hundred and fifteen year old. And maybe one 231 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: of their children is flying the plane at like fifty 232 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: at fifty sure because they had kids early. Yeah, so 233 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: it's like a nice uh older group of people out 234 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: on the planet a plane totally. And Grandpa Bridger is are. 235 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 3: You thinking you would charter this plane or would this 236 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 3: be like it would happen on Delta? 237 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: This is like a hijacking situation. It's who was, uh 238 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: the guy in the seventies who hijacked that plane? I 239 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: don't want It's like, uh, well the guy Cooper dB Cooper, 240 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 1: thank you? Oh I thought you met the guy in 241 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: his seventies. Oh interesting, Well he could have been. We 242 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: never found him. He hijacked the plane, got a like 243 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: a Duffel bag of money, leaped out of the plane 244 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: and was never found again. So I could be kind 245 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: of a dB Cooper situation where I hijacked the plane 246 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: and jump out and then also my son, well, actually 247 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: my sons are pushing me out so they would be 248 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 1: immediately caught to board delta flight what have you. 249 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 3: Unless you hijacked the plane and then at gunpoint forced 250 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 3: them to. 251 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: Push you out. Not a bad idea. Yeah, and so 252 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: then there's Scott Free. Yeah, everyone's dreams come truck and 253 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: there are you know, there are witnesses all aboard the plane. 254 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: They get this insane hundred and fifteen year old took 255 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: over the pla. Yeah, and the oldest man on earth 256 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: by far hijack this plane I was on. They let 257 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: him fly and man, the definition of spry was man. Well, 258 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: that's a great think about being one hundred and fifteen. 259 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: People would allow me to do whatever, that's true. They 260 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: would let me into the into the cockpit. They're like, 261 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 1: what's this guy gonna do? Little did they know I'm 262 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: on my way out? Yeah, you're and you're very You're 263 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: very capable. I'm extremely capable. If there's one thing people 264 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: know about me, it's that I'm just skilled. Even refer 265 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: to you now with any I just meant you're saying 266 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: it like eighty years, like y'all have developed a skill. 267 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: That's very optimistic of it. I feel like if in 268 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: the next eighty years, I learned one thing. It will 269 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: be too It'll be the way into a delta flight. Yes, 270 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: this is gonna get me on some sort of list. Well, 271 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: it won't matter. You'll be fucking dead. Yeah, or maybe 272 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: you won't. Airline industry, I'm not planning on this for 273 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: another eighty eighty to ninety years. Hold off on keeping 274 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: me off your flights. I'm a perfectly pleasant passenger. I 275 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: occasionally push my seat back, big deal, but otherwise I'm 276 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 1: very polite to flight attendants. Are you? Of course? 277 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 3: I feel like, how wild would it be? My answer 278 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 3: was like, no, I fucking hate flight attendants. 279 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: Some people I think are like proudly mean passengers. Really, 280 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't expect you to, but you never know. 281 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 1: You could be a maniac. Yeah, you never know. But 282 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: then I feel like, just in order to be someone 283 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: who is mean to first of all, in order to 284 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: be mean to people in any sort of service job, 285 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna hate you like I hate you. 286 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 3: But in order to be mean to them and proud 287 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 3: of it, that carries with it. I think a lot 288 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 3: of other personality characteristics. Yeah, Like if you were like, 289 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 3: how do you feel about flight attendants? And I'm like, oh, dude, 290 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 3: I fucking hate flight attendants, and any chance I get, 291 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 3: I make them feel bad. 292 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: I the antagonized. 293 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I call them all stewardess, all of them. I 294 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 3: call pilot stewardess. 295 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: Turns out I don't know the definition of stewardess. I 296 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: don't know what it means. I feel like, look, if 297 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm over a mile in the air, fuck everyone up there. 298 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: That's how I feel. I don't like anyone in Denver, 299 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: anyone or Albuquerque or on any plane that Albuquerque is 300 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: a high high city. It's higher than Denver. Yeah, Albert, Well, 301 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: Denver needs to back off. I agree, Yeah, give Albuquerque 302 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: the credit to deserve. 303 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 3: Denver also does a lot of we we're the ones 304 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 3: with green Chili's. 305 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: Oh, that's definitely an Albuquerque I think. So, yeah, Denver, 306 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: what is your thing? What are you actually famous for? Yeah? 307 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a perfectly nice place. But I 308 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: don't feel like has ever happened there? Yeah, nothing has 309 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: ever happened. Nothing has ever happened there, Nothing ever will. 310 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 1: I can't. I actually can't, but that's just because I 311 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: don't have a knowledge of anything. 312 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 3: I suppose there's a chance people listening might know that, 313 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 3: might not know that. I love Denver and I have 314 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 3: a great deal of family there, which is all over 315 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 3: your fair side. 316 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: Okay, I don't think has any excuse. I simply don't 317 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 1: know anyone in Denver, and that's fun. Or should you 318 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: I've spent some good I shouldn't know it because nothing's 319 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: ever happened there, nor will it. I've enjoyed my time 320 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: in Denver me too, It's perfect. I've never been to Albuquerque, 321 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: and here I am defending Albuquerque like it's my hometown. 322 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know what's wrong with me. 323 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 3: I just think it's really funny that that that Albuquerque 324 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 3: Denver thing is so it's so telling to me about 325 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: all life, or at least all of history. Really, it's 326 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 3: all like people in places and things and whatever just 327 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 3: choose how they are defined, and whoever says it first 328 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 3: gets it. 329 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, say it first and loud, and then you have ownership. Dave, 330 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: I feel like you're distracting from the fact that I 331 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: asked you about gifts. I want to hear have you 332 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: got any gifts recently that you've enjoyed last Christmas? Did 333 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: you get something? 334 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 3: I went home for Christmas? And I did Christmas with 335 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 3: my parents, but they don't understand me, nor do they try. 336 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: To okay, which used to not be okay with me, 337 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: but it's perfectly fine with you. Yeah, I don't point. 338 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: What understanding do you need from these two adults? Yeah, 339 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: so I got a lot of books that they like, 340 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 1: socks and shit. What sort of books are they giving you? Like? 341 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 1: Anything from a book like a Tony Hillerman book? You 342 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: know that. I don't know who that is. 343 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 3: He's one of those you know, your Clive Cussler's or 344 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 3: your love of course got a grocery store book, Yeah, exactly, 345 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 3: but he's all his is about like Native Americans or 346 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 3: Native American centric things. 347 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: Okay, but he's not Native American. I don't think so. 348 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 1: But maybe you know what. I didn't read it. Yeah, 349 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: so choose to say you should ask my dad on 350 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: the line. 351 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 3: I'm trying to think though, because I do know to 352 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 3: answer your questions. I don't give a lot of gifts, 353 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 3: but I like to. Yes, it does feel good. It's 354 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 3: one of those things where, like much like everything about 355 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 3: socializing as an adult, I forget to do it because 356 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: I'm obsessed with work, right, But every time I do it, 357 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 3: I'm reminded how much I love it. And when I 358 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 3: get a gift, it's so touching, because yeah, I generally 359 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 3: get gifts from my family that are just sort of like, 360 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 3: because we're doing Christmas over, yes. 361 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: We have to do this no matter what. And maybe 362 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: I'll get something in the mail on my birthday. 363 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 3: But randomly every now and then is I'll get a 364 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 3: gift from a friend who's like, hey, I just thought 365 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 3: I saw this and thought of you, and that is 366 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 3: that the sweetest It's the best ever. And I'm just 367 00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 3: trying to think, I can't I know that there's something 368 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 3: I can't. You know, I knew it was a gifts podcast, and. 369 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 1: So I should have thought of that. Look, I'm not 370 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: out here really pushing the gift thing. I'm not expecting 371 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: you to have a list of gifts you've got. Well 372 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: you've brought. I don't know if you're not pushing the 373 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 1: gift thing because you keep bringing it up. Well, I 374 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: did say you kind of shamed you on the show 375 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: already about this, I suppose, but I think this is 376 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: a failure on the people in your life. They haven't 377 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: given you enough thoughtful gifts. So are memorable gifts, I know, 378 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: so maybe it's time to take a look at who 379 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: you're getting gifts from and just say, up your auntie, 380 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: up the game. Oh wow, I'm glad you said auntie auntie. 381 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,239 Speaker 1: I don't know that I use that correctly, and that's fine. Well, 382 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: it just seems like you're seeing something angry. You were 383 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: like you, I am angry at the people in your life, 384 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: and you were about to say up your ass, up 385 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: your ass, mom and dad. Dave doesn't want Tom clancy novel. 386 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 3: I don't. Yeah, I don't need any more Michael Crichton. 387 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 3: But right, take your Louis Lamorage of it up there. 388 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 3: I haven't read any Louis Lamore. I've read a in 389 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 3: middle school. I had a weird period where I read 390 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 3: essentially only Tom Clancy and Mary Higgins Clark odd dynamic. 391 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: What is Mary Higgins Clok's like she's the queen of suspense, Dave. 392 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: She's writing murder Mysteries.

Immediately after college, 506 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 3: I was a radio DJ, right. I then became a 507 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 3: web and graphic designer right after that for a documentary 508 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 3: film company in La Okay. And I did web and 509 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 3: graphic design up until I started comedy, and then four 510 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 3: or five years in to comedy, and then I just 511 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 3: now I'm a comedian. 512 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: So you kind of just tell yourself. Yeah, I literally 513 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: started with editing my MySpace page. Oh yeah, how interesting. 514 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: I thought that that's happened to more people than you 515 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: would think because it kind of allowed you know, you 516 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: could get a different backdrop, all this sort of thing just. 517 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: By changing there were just like you would copy code 518 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 3: from places. 519 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: That were knew what they were doing or whatever. 520 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was like used that you can throw this 521 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 3: background on your MySpace page by dropping this code in, 522 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 3: and then you learn over time that that's HTML code 523 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 3: and CSS code and you learn how to play with that. Also, 524 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 3: it was this era of like the Internet was still 525 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 3: new enough where everyone who owned a company was old 526 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 3: enough to have no idea how to use the Internet. Yes, 527 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 3: and so it was this like five or ten year 528 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 3: period whereas young people were just like robbing the old 529 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 3: mind of their money by telling them that it cost 530 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 3: a lot of money to do very simple things on 531 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 3: the Internet, and so I literally like, that's how I 532 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 3: got that job working for that documentary film company. I 533 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 3: was like, oh, yeah, I know how to do that, 534 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 3: and I had no idea how to. 535 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: Do it, just figured it out. Yeah, we'll probably you 536 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 1: had enough skill to prove. 537 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 3: To make it to get shited done at a low 538 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 3: level right away, and then it just yeah. I just 539 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 3: lied on resumes over and over and over again until 540 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 3: I was working on the website for the Oscars, which won, 541 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 3: and now I have an Emmy in web design. 542 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: Wait, wait, is that true? True fact about me? Yes, 543 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: walk me through this again. You designed the Oscars website. Well, 544 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: I didn't design the Oscars website, but you worked on it. 545 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: I worked. So that's the thing. 546 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 3: Is that, like, even though this is true, the way 547 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 3: that it happened at all, the story is very thin. 548 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 3: The fact is very thin. I guess that is what 549 00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 3: I'm saying. So here's what happened. I lied on resumes 550 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 3: and light on resumes until I actually was a web 551 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 3: developer and knew how to make websites and I was 552 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 3: doing it freelance, and had I had worked for this 553 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 3: jewelry company for a while, and like didn't know what 554 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 3: I was doing at the start, and by the end 555 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: had built them two websites and all this stuff, and 556 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 3: so I started trying to get real web development work. 557 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 3: And then the first job I got was a four 558 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 3: month contract gig for ABC. Okay, in the ABC building 559 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 3: on the Disney Lot, and ABC hosts the Oscars, and 560 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 3: the Oscars of course have to have a website. And 561 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: there are so many Emmys there that are not televised. 562 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:39,479 Speaker 3: They're called the Creative Art Semis. 563 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: Yes kind, it's pushed into a ditch, pushed into a ditch. 564 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: There's a whole ceremony there is. It's a weird like 565 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: alternate universe happening over there. It's like the same thing. 566 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: It's just not televised. It's not televised, and it's like 567 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: every single possible thing that goes into making some TV 568 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: is up for. Like the best of that is nominated for. 569 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: The ceremony is fifty hours long. I think it's probably 570 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: pretty fucking long. Yeah. 571 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did not go. So that's the thing. It 572 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 3: was a four month contract gig. My contract was not renewed. 573 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 3: I was not good at my job. 574 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: Okay, but you were involved, so you can take credits. 575 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, and to say I wasn't good at my job 576 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 3: is a little unfair to myself. I don't it would 577 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 3: be a little boring for your podcast. But front end 578 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 3: work and back end work are two like broad different 579 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 3: types of web development. Front End is making the website 580 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 3: look away. 581 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 1: Back end is making it work in the background. I 582 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,479 Speaker 1: was good at front end and bad at back end. 583 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: You could do the design, but you couldn't work the 584 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: storeroom exactly. 585 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 3: And in the interview I told them that and they're like, yeah, yeah, totally. 586 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: And so. 587 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 3: I like, I'm working on a team of like fifteen 588 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 3: people for the Oscars websites, and there's one side of 589 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,479 Speaker 3: front end work that is JavaScript, that is like making 590 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 3: small functions happen after the page is already loaded, and 591 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: I could do that. So I made the countdown clock 592 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: until the Oscars oh, for the website. Yeah uh, And 593 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 3: so I was very proud of that. I made the 594 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 3: countdown clock on oscar dot com. 595 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 596 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 3: But then that was the only thing that I could 597 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 3: possibly contribute, Okay, and they started they moved me over 598 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 3: to working on ABC Family TV show websites and it 599 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 3: was all back end. 600 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: And none of these websites needed a countdown clock. No, 601 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: I think every website should have a countdown clock, just 602 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: to make any Richard things like, oh, time is running out, Yeah, 603 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: why are you?

I'm Dave Clockman Clockmaster. And actually 638 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 1: I was so. 639 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 3: They so rude the day that they hired me that 640 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 3: I got a text that said, Dave, we won an Emmy. 641 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: And it was like months after. 642 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 3: I was fired, and I was like, oh great, and 643 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 3: it was my old bosson He was like, do you 644 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 3: want to come in and take a picture with your emmy? 645 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 1: There was one Emmy for the office. Sure, with your emmy? 646 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, because the team won one Emmy and I was like, yeah, 647 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 3: I would love to come in when do you want 648 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 3: me to? And then I texted him a couple more 649 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 3: times asking when and no response at all, So there's 650 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 3: no evidence. 651 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: See, I was under the impression that when a team 652 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: of people won an Emmy, everyone like basically put an 653 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: order in and then you like had to buy it. 654 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: So maybe I don't understand how anything works either, but 655 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: I imagine one that one got. If you wanted one, 656 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: you could get one. There are several possibilities here. 657 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 3: One possibility is that that's just not true of the 658 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 3: Creative Arts Emmy. 659 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: Oh maybe maybe. 660 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 3: Another very big possibility is that that is true and 661 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 3: they did not offer me this option. 662 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: Oh sure, but I hope that's I hope that's the case. 663 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: Don't let Dave have one. I now you know. 664 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 3: I am now so embarrassed of what I said about 665 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 3: the cameras. Can I tell you, little zip lines, what 666 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 3: was I even thinking when I said that? 667 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, As somebody, I can say, I have a 668 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: very limited knowledge of mechanical things. My spatial reasoning skills 669 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: are like sub infant, and what you told me, even 670 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: I know that that couldn't possibly be a real well situation. 671 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 3: Then explain to me how one of the thousands I 672 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 3: would imagine of users of oscar dot com might themselves 673 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 3: navigate a view through the red carpet that was a 674 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 3: personalized experience to them. 675 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's an army of mice. Oh, 676 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: it's an army of them, just an army of trained rodents. 677 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: I forgot that this is actually what the movie Cats 678 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: is about. Yes, this is exactly anyone who saw cats 679 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 1: mice running wild on the red carpet for part of 680 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: a social media campaign. It's a beautiful movie. Well want 681 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: to I want to talk a little bit more about 682 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 1: this hat. You know, I used to wear hats a lot. 683 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: I haven't worn a hat in a long time. Are 684 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 1: you a hat man? 685 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 3: I am a hat man, yes, but I'm at.

You 687 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 3: have at. 688 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a. 689 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 3: I am more often than i'd like in a rush. 690 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: Okay, And in order to make my hair not. 691 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 3: Look like a puffball, I have put product in it, right, 692 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 3: and so I'll put a hat on. 693 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 1: I throw a hat on. I don't I need somebody. 694 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: There are two things that I don't know how to 695 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 1: do one is wear a hat. The other is tuck 696 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 1: in a shirt. I need somebody to just take me 697 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: aside and teach me how to do these things, because 698 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: whenever I wear a hat, I'm like, I'm not wearing 699 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,720 Speaker 1: this like a normal person, and people are gonna notice 700 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: and it's going to be a distraction. I'd love to 701 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: be able to wear a hat. 702 00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 3: I feel like the untucked thing, though I don't know. 703 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,520 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know a lot of people that tuck. 704 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: Well, it's a hard thing to do, yeah, but what 705 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 1: if you can do it? Well, what a beautiful thing 706 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: to be able to do. But you're some sort of 707 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,400 Speaker 1: pilot or doctor right right one of these times? Well, pilot, 708 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 1: I don't like pilots. I have a we've we've figured 709 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: that out. I have about six shirts which I can't 710 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:30,839 Speaker 1: wear because they're too long and they're tuck only. Tuck only. Unfortunately, 711 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 1: I can't tuck, So I don't know what I'm supposed 712 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: to do. You know what, I find a trusted friend. 713 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 3: I think that the tucking is supposed to I think 714 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 3: you're supposed to have a blazer a jacket over it. 715 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,439 Speaker 3: You've got you a bunch the folds of the tuck 716 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 3: in the back. I think that that's what people do. 717 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: What are you talking? 718 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 1: I think what you've just described as someone who's never 719 00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,800 Speaker 1: worn a shirt, I don't think so well, it sounds 720 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: like that's a paper No, I'm picturing just a what 721 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: when you know, when you. 722 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,480 Speaker 3: Look at someone who's wearing a button up shirt, the 723 00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 3: shirt is inevitably at least the littlest bit bigger than 724 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,280 Speaker 3: their body, and so in order to tuck the shirt 725 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 3: in at some points at the waistline, it's going to 726 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 3: be folded over a little bit. This is what you're 727 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 3: talking about, right, You don't know how to tuck a 728 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 3: shirt in. 729 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 1: I just don't know. I like, I tuck it in 730 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: and I just feel unbalanced or something like that. Oh right. 731 00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 1: My problem is I always am like, is it I 732 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,480 Speaker 1: just feel like it looks bunched up. Okay. And the 733 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 1: reason I said that is I think that the people 734 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: who tuck were originally people who like they had like 735 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: the original tux yeah these yeah, theseus, the duck the dockers. Yeah, 736 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: they would have like something to cover up part of 737 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: their tuck because so it didn't bunched up. Got a 738 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: tuxedo jacket, yeah, they would have little little shaws. They 739 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: have zip lines which people around the world are logging 740 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: onto oscars dot com to tux this. I do think 741 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: that there is some sort of thing how I don't know, 742 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: you know what, Dave. I headed back to the zip 743 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: line because that is not that is I don't even 744 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 1: think you've worked on this website. The more that we 745 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 1: talk about this, the more skeptical I become that you 746 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: have any web development skill. 747 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 3: Can I tell you though that? And I also want 748 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 3: to talk about this hat. I have a great many thoughts, 749 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:33,760 Speaker 3: but uh I. As a result of working on that website, 750 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 3: I did one of the most interesting things I will 751 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 3: ever do, for sure, because when they when they announce 752 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 3: the Oscar nominees, there's a big press conference obviously right 753 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 3: and when they're announced, the website has to be live 754 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 3: with all the information on it. But they can't just 755 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 3: give us the information because it would get leaked. So 756 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 3: there was a night in my life where I was 757 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 3: taken to the top of a building in Beverly Hills. 758 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 3: My phone was taken away from me and locked in 759 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 3: a fucking safe and we pulled an all nighter with 760 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,839 Speaker 3: our laptops and they created like a little intranet, and 761 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 3: then a guy two guys walked in and one of 762 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 3: them had a briefcase handcuffed to his wrist. Oh wow, 763 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 3: and they had the nominee information. We were the yes, 764 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 3: second group of people that year to get the nominee information, 765 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 3: and we had the website ready to go without the 766 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 3: info on it. But of course there were like bugs 767 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 3: that would come up, and then we like from midnight 768 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 3: to five am coded the Oscars website so it was 769 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 3: ready for the press conference. 770 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy, is insane? Yeah, what are we doing? 771 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: Get real? It's what for movies? Oh yeah, just who cares? 772 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: Let's just announce it. I agree, I agree, but and 773 00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,840 Speaker 1: that's how I felt. But I just also exciting. It 774 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: was like a spy ittle yeah, which you know might 775 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: have been nominated. I'm going to put this hat on, 776 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: and I'm going to ask you, and I'm going to 777 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: ask Steven if I'm wearing it correctly and if I 778 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,120 Speaker 1: would love for you to to just coach me into 779 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: wearing this hat, because I do feel like in the 780 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: last few years, hats, the way we're wearing them has changed. 781 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 1: There's a lot of like barely putting it on. Yes, 782 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: of course, no one's really doing the bill anymore, folding 783 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: the bill? Is this what that's folding the bill? What 784 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: is this personal hat called? That's a dad hat? This 785 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: is a dad hat. But this part of the hat 786 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: that what's the portion of a hat that is a bill? Right? Kay? 787 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: You actually, like I was saying, I know the folding thing. 788 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 1: I thought you meant. I thought you meant another type 789 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,239 Speaker 1: of folding the brim. And I was shocked that you 790 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 1: would ask, and I, oh, brim, brim, brim, it's part 791 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: of a hat, the hat brim. Then no one is 792 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: what this is? Is this the dome? This is the 793 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 1: skull cover? Yes, tell me how to put it on 794 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: before I put it on, so I don't want to 795 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: embarrass myself too much here, can I tell you? By 796 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 1: the way, I there are a few types of. 797 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 3: Like clothing that I'm selling now, both on the road 798 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 3: and online, and so there were a few things when 799 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,320 Speaker 3: I decided like, Okay, you know, I'm just gonna bring 800 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 3: my stuff. I'm gonna feel I'm gonna feel weird about it, 801 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 3: but I'll bring it. Doesn't that feel weird to just 802 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 3: I don't know, it feels weird to promote yourself. 803 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,240 Speaker 1: But anyway, Oh, of course, self promotion is the most agon. 804 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it makes me feel horrible and it's absolutely terrible. 805 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 1: And we're unfortunately in a business where you have to 806 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 1: you're rewarded for self promotion. This is interesting though too, 807 00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: because they do not feel guilty for bringing Also it's 808 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: a tasteful hat. Well, that's the thing that's interesting, is it. 809 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 1: Like it's also. 810 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 3: I'm in a weird place right now with this shit 811 00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,320 Speaker 3: because I. 812 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 1: Just started selling merch at all. I also feel weird 813 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: about it. 814 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 3: Monetizing myself in a non my comedy way almost felt off. 815 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 3: But I'm doing it and uh, and that's why I 816 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 3: made stuff that I like. And so it is interesting, 817 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 3: like it is inherently self promotion, but it's also interesting 818 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 3: to have this physical product that I created that I 819 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 3: actually do like it. 820 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's an odd thing. It's like almost like making 821 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: food for yourself and you enjoy the food. Yeah, that 822 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: makes sense, where it's like, yes, I don't trust myself 823 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 1: to make something that I'll enjoy. 824 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 3: Yes, and for me to make it for others, and 825 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 3: so I like, it's just weird to be like I'm 826 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 3: proud of this but also buy it. 827 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: Right, That's why it's you fausing ten of your own 828 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 1: hats from yourself. Yes, it's ruining you financially. 829 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 3: But so I couldn't figure out like whether to bring 830 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 3: you a hat or a shirt. And I'll be honest 831 00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 3: with you, I don't. You don't strike me as the 832 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 3: type of person who would wear a hat it all. 833 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,760 Speaker 3: And you don't strike me as a person who would 834 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 3: wear a T shirt with any comedians anything on it. Ever, 835 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 3: you nailed it there, yeah, And so I brought you 836 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 3: the hat because a white hat with that design on it, 837 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 3: I just think as a thing. 838 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 1: This sort of suits you, if somebody, And right now 839 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 1: this is really the moment of truth. I have two 840 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: men who I think both wear hats at some point 841 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: are going to coach me and wearing a hat. But 842 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 1: my point is I gave it to you expecting it 843 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 1: to be something that would happily go on a mantle. 844 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: And I so I, oh, sure, I thought like a 845 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: thing that you could own, that would be a nice 846 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: thing for you to have, But I expect nothing. Is 847 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: my point. Well, I would like to be able to 848 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,279 Speaker 1: wear the hat, Okay, okay, tell should I just do 849 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 1: I put it all the way on my head. Traditionally 850 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 1: you put it all the way on your head because 851 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: the brim is like that, I look like I feel it. 852 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 1: You look inside right now, you look very very bad. 853 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 1: You do not look good. How am I supposed to 854 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: wear this thing? Do I work like this? Actually, it 855 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,320 Speaker 1: doesn't work. You look greats It looks great. That's exactly 856 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 1: how I was going to take it. It looks better 857 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,479 Speaker 1: now because you need to see some of your hair. 858 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,479 Speaker 1: You need to see a little hair. I only wear 859 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 1: hats when I have long hair, right, like something sticking out. 860 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: But I think because in the back, can you tighten 861 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: that up a little bit? Let's see you here. 862 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 3: It depends on this the shape of your head and 863 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 3: the shape of your hair. But for me, like, okay, 864 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 3: I don't wear dead hats a lot because wearing them 865 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 3: I look kind of ridiculous unless I prop them up. 866 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: On my hair entirely. Now it's too small. 867 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 3: So like whereas I there's a five panel hat, a 868 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 3: five panel hat, when I put it on it, it's 869 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 3: like fits the shape of my head, and. 870 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 1: It's more of like a basketball hat. No, a five 871 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 1: panel hat is it's hard to describe it's uh like that, 872 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: Yeah right. 873 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're great. Do I look cool? You're like halfway between. 874 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: So what Bridge is doing is like there's one thing 875 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 3: you can do where. 876 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: You can originally he pulled he pulled it all the 877 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,360 Speaker 1: way over his hair, or you can just sort of 878 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: set it on top of your hair. You're doing halfway 879 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: in between where you told it over your so it's 880 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: firmly on your head. Purity popping out. I don't want 881 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:13,280 Speaker 1: to blowing off in a gust of wind. Stephen, does it? 882 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: Is it on me? Yes? I think you could tuck 883 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,399 Speaker 1: a little bit of the hair back in. Let's see here, 884 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 1: this may pop out the end looks good to me personally? 885 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: Does does that? 886 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 3: I think I look good? I think it like actually 887 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 3: it's funny. I wouldn't have guessed it, but I think 888 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: it like entirely suits you. 889 00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear it for the rest of the podcast 890 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: and see how I feel. I'm it's now you know 891 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: I'm on oneasy ground here. This is a new me. 892 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: This is me talking in a baseball or a dad 893 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: I guess it's a baseball hat, but it's also a 894 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 1: dad hat. Dad hat is the like, which is the 895 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,960 Speaker 1: news of our time, everything I feel. I hopefully I'll 896 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: become more comfortable as I wear it, but it is 897 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,799 Speaker 1: nice to get some honest opinions. I really fell right 898 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: on my face with the first attempt putting on the hat. No, 899 00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: but you did it on purpose. You know what you 900 00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: were doing. You know I did go too far. I 901 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 1: know I was going too far. Well, you have to 902 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: to get those reactions, to get the honest reactions. Well, 903 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 1: we want to know what it could be, yes, before 904 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 1: we know what it is. What you know and been 905 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: the thing? I say, Yes, we want to know what 906 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: it could be before we know what it is. So 907 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 1: here I am in my hat, tasteful white hat with 908 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: a little cartoon picture of Dave with some roses. Yeah, 909 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 1: tell me about this design. 910 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:33,239 Speaker 3: The cover art for my album is a photo of 911 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 3: me with a sweatshairt covering half my face that my 912 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 3: friend Megan Thompson took that always. I thought it was 913 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 3: so funny amongst like a bunch of flowers and yeah, 914 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,919 Speaker 3: I just it was a design that I had made 915 00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 3: just messing around, and then when I was putting an 916 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 3: album out, I was like, this is what I want 917 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 3: to be the album art, right, So then I decided 918 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 3: when I decided to sell merch. Literally, what happened is 919 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 3: I were going to wear House sometimes to make some 920 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:05,440 Speaker 3: extra money, and they had some extra hats, and I 921 00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:07,640 Speaker 3: was like, can I have these? And I was I've 922 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 3: been trying to This is the reason I wanted to 923 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 3: bring it in. The most exciting part of my thing 924 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 3: about my life right now is I decided at the 925 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 3: end of twenty nineteen to start completely approaching comedy in 926 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:26,319 Speaker 3: my life as a small business. Sure, and I had 927 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:30,560 Speaker 3: been thinking. My perspective was like, I'm an artist. I 928 00:50:30,600 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 3: make art of whatever kinds, and if I focus on 929 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 3: that and I make it good, the money will come. 930 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 3: And it wasn't really happening. It was happening some and 931 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 3: I was like, well, what if I just actually try 932 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 3: to make money, you know, like people who own businesses do, 933 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 3: rather than just waiting for it to show up totally 934 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 3: just like sitting. 935 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 936 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 3: And so as a result, I like changed some things 937 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 3: about my touring and I was like, I should have 938 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 3: merchant to sell. It shows people are likely to buy 939 00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:58,359 Speaker 3: stuff the most after they see you, and I should 940 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,799 Speaker 3: open a store. And so I was just thinking about 941 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 3: all these things I'll sell and but also I don't. 942 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 3: I don't want corny merch. I want my merch to 943 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 3: look good. Yes, that's why I made my album arnt that. 944 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,600 Speaker 3: And it's tough, Like it's just tough to make merch 945 00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 3: as a comic because as a band, you put the 946 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 3: name of your band on a shirt, and that's a 947 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 3: thing that people don't feel crazy. 948 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 1: It's like the normal thing we've been doing. I was 949 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 1: at a concert last night. Sure I bought a T shirt. Yeah, 950 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:29,239 Speaker 1: I'll wear it. 951 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, But if you were to see a comedian and 952 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 3: really like them, would you? Or if you were to 953 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 3: never not have heard of me and then see me 954 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 3: and be like, wow, that comedy truly spoke to me 955 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:46,800 Speaker 3: in the way that bands usually do, Like the best 956 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 3: example ever of you liking me? Wow, that stand upset 957 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:55,600 Speaker 3: saved my life? Would you put my name on your chest? 958 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,320 Speaker 1: I don't. I would No. It seems like the only 959 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 1: comedians people wear a T shirt of are dead. Yes, 960 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: right for them to die, than you wear their T shirt? Right, 961 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: But you have this edge where you actually know how 962 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 1: to design things that look tasteful that don't necessarily scream comedian. 963 00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm wearing a comedian T shirt, right. 964 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's the thing, that's the other way you 965 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 3: can go. I know, I have a lot of friends 966 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 3: who successfully have made something that was their own merch 967 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 3: that was funny, right, And I also know a handful 968 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 3: of people that unsuccessfully. 969 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: Have done it. Oh sure that's the majority. 970 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 3: But yeah, I was like, I'm not gonna go the 971 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 3: funny route. So anyway, I was just like, I'm just 972 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 3: gonna use my album art. I love the album art, 973 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 3: but I had the hats and you can't. I wanted 974 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:49,040 Speaker 3: to get it embroidered.

I could. 1142 01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 1: I could guess she's either in Australia or here in 1143 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. 1144 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:37,480 Speaker 3: That's a good bet. Nicole Kidman is the one who 1145 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:39,680 Speaker 3: is married to Tom Cruise. She was married to Tom 1146 01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 3: kru escaped him. Yes, I think that's when scientology really 1147 01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:46,640 Speaker 3: started to ramp up in the Cruise household. Kidman was like, 1148 01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 3: I'm out of here. 1149 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Well, then she's getting the waterbed because she needs to 1150 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:56,320 Speaker 1: lay down, she needs to take a minute to breathe. Yes, scientology, 1151 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,360 Speaker 1: And you know what, I would imagine that she's got 1152 01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:00,439 Speaker 1: a lot of things in life. 1153 01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:03,440 Speaker 3: But I'll bet you that Nicole Kidman doesn't have a waterbed. 1154 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,200 Speaker 3: I'll also bet you she doesn't often want to lay 1155 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 3: in a waterbed, because laying on a waterbed is usually 1156 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 3: very bad. 1157 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: Uh. We held onto the dream of the waterbed for 1158 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 1: a very long we sure did. And then I think 1159 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:21,160 Speaker 1: everybody immediately was on the same page and we said 1160 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,880 Speaker 1: we're not doing that anymore. Yeah. 1161 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 3: I don't really know why. I don't really know what 1162 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 3: had to happen for us to finally agree that waterbeds 1163 01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:33,680 Speaker 3: are bad, But it did seem to happen overnight one night. 1164 01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think in like nineteen ninety seven we said 1165 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:41,320 Speaker 1: goodbye right New Year's too many waterbeds blew up totally. 1166 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 1: Were they blowing up? I think that they can like explode. 1167 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it is. It's a water balloon. 1168 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,920 Speaker 1: It's not a water it's one hundred percent of water. 1169 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 4: It is not one hundred A water mattress is not 1170 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 4: a water because a water balloon has pressure in it 1171 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 4: has like air in it as well, whereas a water 1172 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 4: bed isn't nearing explosion. I suppose like if you were 1173 01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 4: to drop some sort of anvil on a waterbed, perhaps 1174 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:14,200 Speaker 4: it would explode. So like yes, if you're jumping up 1175 01:04:14,240 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 4: and down, I don't think that it's really in the 1176 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 4: cards for it too. 1177 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 1: I think it could split and leak. No, I think 1178 01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 1: they exploded. There's pressure air, yes, I think they're packed 1179 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 1: with water, yes, but not like yeah, and then there's 1180 01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,040 Speaker 1: sort of like a vacuum ceiling element to it where 1181 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 1: it's like a it's sort of like what wavy. No, 1182 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 1: it's just not just water. There's like something in the 1183 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 1: water what a fish? Tiny cameras? Uh yeah, No, like 1184 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,560 Speaker 1: have you been on a waterbed before, not in the 1185 01:04:55,640 --> 01:05:01,960 Speaker 1: last thirty years. Well you haven't lived thirty years. Yeah, 1186 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 1: that's probably true, but I mean it is probably just 1187 01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:11,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's a water balloon. Police, they beg you. 1188 01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:13,680 Speaker 1: You put a sheet over a water balloon and that's 1189 01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:17,080 Speaker 1: a waterbed. I don't know what to tell you. 1190 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,960 Speaker 3: I mean, it is a sack filled with water. Like 1191 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 3: obviously I don't so we disagree with you there. 1192 01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,600 Speaker 1: Maybe we meet halfway and we call it a water sack. 1193 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, no one's seen one since nineteen 1194 01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,360 Speaker 1: ninety seven, so we to and we can theorize all 1195 01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:34,800 Speaker 1: we want. 1196 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 3: But yes, either way, I don't think Nicole Gidman has one. 1197 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:44,040 Speaker 3: And I'll bet you that that's not really for for 1198 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:45,919 Speaker 3: because she wants she doesn't want one. 1199 01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 1: But I'll also bet she has an extra room sure. 1200 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,640 Speaker 3: And were she to get a waterbed, she'll be like, 1201 01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 3: oh my god, fine put it in. 1202 01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: The guests in the room were when it comes to 1203 01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,040 Speaker 1: visit the kids or whatever, they let him stay there. 1204 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,160 Speaker 1: I would really doubt it. I feel like this is 1205 01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,520 Speaker 1: kind of one of these families with you know, just 1206 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 1: weird stuff. 1207 01:06:07,200 --> 01:06:09,080 Speaker 3: I just mean, I don't think Tom Cruise has slept 1208 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:10,600 Speaker 3: in years. That's probably true. 1209 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 1: The last time he stuff was on a waterbed in 1210 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,720 Speaker 1: like nineteen eighty seven, and then l Ron Hubbard came knocking, 1211 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: and it's just been awake. Yeah. Yeah. 1212 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 3: But then every now and then she'll be like thinking 1213 01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:26,240 Speaker 3: about scientology a lot, you know, and she's like, oh God, 1214 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:29,560 Speaker 3: I wish that I could sleep, but also that it 1215 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,000 Speaker 3: was like sort of an advance. 1216 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:34,360 Speaker 1: Kind of slosh around. Well, scientologists love to be at sea, 1217 01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:39,320 Speaker 1: so this feels like a little harder her ideologically to see. Oh, 1218 01:06:39,520 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 1: Dave has gone political again and again on this podcast. 1219 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 1: I know, Yeah, you don't know what I believe if 1220 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:49,680 Speaker 1: we found out right now that you're a scientologist, I 1221 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 1: don't know. 1222 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not a scientologist. But I'm just a fan 1223 01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 3: of l Ron Hubbard. They call us Hubbies. You love 1224 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,760 Speaker 3: his you love his fiction. 1225 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,000 Speaker 1: I do. He's a good writer. I mean, it's kind 1226 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,600 Speaker 1: of in the same category as the whatever your parents 1227 01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 1: gave you, the book, oh, the Tony Hillerman Tony Hilly trash, right, Yeah, 1228 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:19,120 Speaker 1: but like now it's a religion. Yes, very interesting. 1229 01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:22,200 Speaker 3: And so I'll give a VR headset to Tricia Yearwould 1230 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 3: and there's not really a reason. But maybe there's a 1231 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 3: program in there where she could talk to someone who 1232 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:34,360 Speaker 3: is not Garth brook Maybe she there's a game where 1233 01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 3: she can have another husband, or. 1234 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 1: Maybe it's the Chris Ganes experience. Oh wow, you plug 1235 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:44,680 Speaker 1: into the VR and you're rocking out as your alter ego. 1236 01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 1: How funny would that be? 1237 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:50,520 Speaker 3: If it's like in the in the Gaines Brooks Yearwood Household, 1238 01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:54,760 Speaker 3: which I'm sure they referred to it as that she 1239 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 3: Chris Gaines gets Tricia. Garth Brooks would never do this, 1240 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:04,200 Speaker 3: but Chris. He gets Tricia a VR headset for her birthday, 1241 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 3: and she's like, thank you, Chris, because she plays along entirely, right, yeah, yeah. 1242 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:11,480 Speaker 3: But then it turns out slowly over time that every 1243 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:15,120 Speaker 3: time she's she has the headset on, she's just hanging 1244 01:08:15,160 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 3: out with Toby Keith. But he doesn't know, and there's 1245 01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:20,799 Speaker 3: no way of knowing. 1246 01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:25,320 Speaker 1: I could see that happening me too. I mean, you know, Tricia, 1247 01:08:25,479 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 1: once she gets the VR headset for me, if she 1248 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 1: can do whatever she wants. Yeah, she can live as 1249 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 1: Arizona Waterbed. 1250 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 3: The only VR game I've ever played was a game 1251 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 3: where you throw dildo's at Donald Trump. 1252 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,599 Speaker 1: That makes sense. Yeah, it feels right for VR. I agree. 1253 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:42,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I think everyone would like to give that 1254 01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:45,840 Speaker 1: a shot out. It was super fun. Interest. It was 1255 01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 1: at the Riot Comedy Festival one year and somebody just 1256 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 1: developed a whole video game about throwing dildo's at Donald Yeah, 1257 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: and you were like inside a whole like three D 1258 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:58,840 Speaker 1: world and there was like a fantastic orange, orange fat 1259 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:03,160 Speaker 1: man just nailing right in the face. Yeah. Okay, Well 1260 01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:06,760 Speaker 1: I think you h. I think you handled that really well. Wow, 1261 01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:09,240 Speaker 1: thank you. That's a really funny way to end a game. 1262 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: I help them. They handled it well. I think you 1263 01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 1: handled that like an adult, Dave. Thank you, and I'm 1264 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 1: proud of you. And so we're gonna head in, uh, 1265 01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:21,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna head into the next portion of the podcast, 1266 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:24,640 Speaker 1: and we're just gonna use that knowledge that you've demonstrated 1267 01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,400 Speaker 1: to help somebody pick a gift for someone in their life. 1268 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:29,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to read a question somebody's written into I 1269 01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 1: said no gifts at gmail dot com and they said, 1270 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 1: Dear Bridger, what could my husband and I gift his 1271 01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:41,479 Speaker 1: mother for Mother's Day?

Thanks for 1273 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 1: your time, Resa in New Jersey. Well, I think you 1274 01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 1: should give her the kids. We've demonstrated right here that 1275 01:09:55,640 --> 01:10:00,639 Speaker 1: grandma's obsessed. She's obsessed, she's hooked, and she's helping raised them. 1276 01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:05,240 Speaker 1: So you clearly don't want you have you've checked out.

Yes, it's about an hour north 1287 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,880 Speaker 1: of New York City. It's if you keep driving up 1288 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 1: from New York City, it is the first place that 1289 01:10:45,640 --> 01:10:49,679 Speaker 1: is poor. Okay, just keep driving until people are poor. 1290 01:10:50,280 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 1: And that's where I until people couldn't afford to live 1291 01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:59,120 Speaker 1: in Manhattan. Uh And it's yeah near like right on 1292 01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 1: the Jersey board. Okay. 1293 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 3: If she's from Ringwood or Paramus or Ramsey or you know, 1294 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:09,480 Speaker 3: even Clifton, you know Morristown. 1295 01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 1: Jim, my boyfriend is from lynd Hurst. I don't know. 1296 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 1: I believe that's your Giants stadium. Yeah, lynd Hurst is 1297 01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 1: in Central Jersey. Okay, so that's central. I don't know 1298 01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:21,800 Speaker 1: any of the to me, New Jersey is on New Jersey. 1299 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,479 Speaker 1: I don't really know where lynd Hurst is. Okay, so central. 1300 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it's such a small state. Why can't we 1301 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 1: just north south? We don't need any of that. Let's 1302 01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:30,040 Speaker 1: just call it New Jersey. We should just make it 1303 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,479 Speaker 1: a part of New York. And maybe New Jersey wouldn't 1304 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 1: want to blow up. But whatever?
