Yeah, comedy, you can't finish farm No, 48 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: I didn't. I want to finish my intro. Then I 49 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: want to get into what you were talking about. I 50 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: hope it's good. Well, here here's the problem. Problem is 51 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: Krinn wrote the intro okay, but on the subject to Krinn, 52 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: our producer Krinn, as everyone knows is Chinese and Jewish, 53 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: and Jeff's already got half act. That's just such a 54 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: weird combination. I'm not gonna tell anybody the jokes. I 55 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: don't want to ruin him. He's got half act. What 56 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: was the last one? 57 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: The only place that you can go to somebody's house 58 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: and eat Moushu matzabo. 59 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: There you see, You see where it's going. Comedian actor, author, 60 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: television hosts and writer. The reason I was criticizing Kren's introduction, 61 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: she said last night, do you think we should have 62 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: an introduction for Jeff? And yeah, I make one, but 63 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: she only put she put perhaps your greatest work last, 64 00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: and you probably don't realize it was your greatest work, 65 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: which is The Incomplete Deer Hunter. Oh my god. So 66 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: i'd like to say.

You've spent way 74 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 2: too much time in the woods. 75 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: You were talking today about how he's played golf for 76 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: thirty years and never got one struck better never, it's 77 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: not even humanly possible.

And I want to 80 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: add just another thing of your many funny jokes. One 81 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: of my favorites is in one of your records. I 82 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: can't remember which one. You're talking about the impulse too. 83 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: I thought of this being in here, people's impulse to 84 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: dress taxider me up. Yeah, well that's what you don't do. 85 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: And and you were commenting that sometimes people put so 86 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: much stuff on their deer mounths that it looks like 87 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: they got killed at Marty Groun.

Yeah. Uh man, let 94 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: me do here. Here's the thing I don't know, Like, 95 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 1: I got one thing I want to talk about, all right, 96 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: because we do listener feedback, okay, which I'm cutting it 97 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: all all right, So I want to get to your 98 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: story that you're just talking about about how musicians got 99 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: it made and comedians don't. Yeah, but I want to 100 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: tell you one thing because you might have made this mistake. 101 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: This is just one I hate to exclude the audience. 102 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: I want to do one listener feedback, and we like 103 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: to focus on criticisms. Okay, excuse my pedantry. This is 104 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: from a guy named Alex. What's a pedantry? Uh like teachy? Okay, preachy? Right, pedantry. 105 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: Anytime someone starts out a letter with excuse my pedantry, 106 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: you know you're in trouble. Excuse my pedantry. But I 107 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: have noticed Steve committing a pet peeve of mine that 108 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: seems common to most writer types, and it pains me 109 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: not to point it out. He has on multiple occasions, 110 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: most recently, in episode five fourteen, used the phrase reached 111 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: a crescendo to describe an apex or climax. You follow the. 112 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: Look, I'm so glad the criticism is against you. I 113 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: just breathed a sigh of relief. So go so be 114 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: like around midnight. Yeah, it reached a crescendo of noise. 115 00:06:53,040 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, what should it be? Well, However, a crescendo is 116 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: a rising action. It means to increase volume. Crescendo from 117 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: piano quiet to forte loud. It's a musical term. Sure, 118 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: in this example, the forte volume would be the peak 119 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: of intensity. It's not the crescendo. He's right, Yeah, the 120 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: inverse of crescendo would be to d crescendo. My realm 121 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: of expertise is only musical, but my understanding is that 122 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: the same holds true of the word and non musically 123 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: related Italian as well. Italian. I appreciate that. 124 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's what I say about me aging is 125 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: I have eclipsed the apex of my splendor God, which means. 126 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: You know that you're on the now. I want to 127 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: get I want to get back to think you were 128 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: talking about a minute ago and saying that you were 129 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: telling me before alterned the machine on. The musicians got 130 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: it made because the musician can have four hits, yeah, 131 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: and then spend the rest of his life playing those 132 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: four songs, and people are gonna come out. 133 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd be ninety years old. They're gonna come to 134 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: hear those four songs. They might like your other stuff, 135 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: but they're there for songs. 136 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: Yeah. 137 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: A comedian, it's the opposite is you know, back in 138 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: the day, you did a record or you did a 139 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 2: CD and you record a special and people go, oh, 140 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: that was funny. What have you got that's new? Yeah, 141 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: so is a comic. It would be like a musician 142 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: going I'm never playing the hits again. I'm going to 143 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: go write a new album, and once I release that album, 144 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 2: I'll never play that again. And that's what a comic does, 145 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 2: which is one of the most agonized. After forty one 146 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 2: years of doing stand up. It's like I did that 147 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: last special and I'm like, okay, yeah, starting over from camprest. 148 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: Now I'm back to the club with thirty people in 149 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: and no cards in my hand, going is this funny? 150 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: Is this funny? Is this funny? And that's how a 151 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: comic works. The writer David Remnick once observed he was 152 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: profiling Bruce Springsteen, but he observed that he was talking 153 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: about the Rolling Stones. How a band can eventually become 154 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 1: its own cover band. Yeah, you know, but you're right. 155 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: Your comic can't do that now Springsteen. He can't be 156 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: like I just want to wait till he does the 157 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: one bit and then we'll go home. Yeah. 158 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 2: No, they don't want to get they've heard that now. 159 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 2: But I got to meet Bruce one time, and my 160 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 2: question for him was, I said, how is a twenty 161 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: year old could you write lyrics like young girls sitting 162 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 2: on the hood of a dodge drinking warm beer in 163 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 2: the soft summer rain. I said, nobody twenty should be 164 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 2: able to write that, and he goes, you know, I just. 165 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: Wanted to be writing stuff.

Some 178 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: people were surprised that that you wanted land and not 179 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: like Jerry Seinfeld wanted cars. Well, you observe the attractor 180 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: costs more than a lot of his cars. Yeah. 181 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: Well, like when when I did my sitcom, it was 182 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 2: we film right next to Seinfeld, and so Jerry and 183 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: I had parking places next to each other. He had 184 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: like an aircraft hanger full of Porsches, so every day 185 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: he'd come in with a different Porsche. I had a 186 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: pickup truck. I literally went to Beverly Hills Dodge and 187 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 2: I said, I want one of the new Ram trucks. 188 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 2: And the guy goes to drive. He goes to, we 189 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 2: don't sell those here. I had to go out somewhere 190 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 2: from so I would pull into it with my pickup 191 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 2: truck in the spot, and Jerry would wheel in with 192 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 2: his porch and get out and go, good morning, loser, 193 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 2: you know, the dude in the pickup truck. But yeah, 194 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 2: I didn't. I mean, that wasn't my thing. I didn't 195 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: care about car. I want a car, guy. I wanted 196 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 2: a farm. I wanted to land, and so that's where 197 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: my car money. But I did tell Jerry, I said, 198 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 2: you really need to come film an episode of comedians 199 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 2: drinking coffee and tractors, because some of my tractors cost 200 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 2: more than your porsches. 201 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, have you comedians getting beer and tracks? Right? 202 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: I think he would love a tractor or a bulldozer 203 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: and just fill the joy of pushing a tree over 204 00:11:59,440 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: or something. 205 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: You know, how did uh you have a property because 206 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: you like the hunt? Yeah, it's beautifully managed. You managed 207 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: as a wildlife. It's like you manage for wildlife, deer 208 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: in particular, but you managed for wildlife when you were 209 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: growing up. What was your what was your understanding of 210 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: deer hunting spots? Like what kind of ground did you 211 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: guys hunt as a kid. 212 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: Well, it's funny like growing up in Georgia, we didn't 213 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: have deer when I was a kid. We but you 214 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: squirrel hunted, You quail hunted, your rabbit hunted, and it 215 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: was usually on some relatives farm. Everybody had small farms 216 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: back then, so and my dad didn't have a bird dog, 217 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: so he would buy me briar bridges and then go, hey, 218 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: get down there and walk through there, and I was 219 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: the dog. 220 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: I flushed. What'd your dad do for a living? 221 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: My dad grew up on a farm, but he worked 222 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 2: at IBM. He did, yeah, he had he was a 223 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 2: smart dude. But we'd go back to these little farms 224 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 2: and that's how I learned to hunt. Was like I 225 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 2: remember being four or five years old and going squirrel 226 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: hunt and learn it. And you got to sit still, 227 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 2: you can't talk, you can't move, and then it was 228 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 2: quail hunting. Then it was dove hunting, and then it 229 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: became deer hunting. I hunted by the time I was 230 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: a teenager in Georgia. I hunted two years before I 231 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: saw a deer. Now that was Jeddicart deer two years 232 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: before he saw a deer. Yeah, getting up every weekend, 233 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 2: going through the motions, getting up Saturday morning, Saturday evening, 234 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 2: Sunday morning, never saw a deer. And it took me, 235 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: I think, three years, and I finally shot a little 236 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 2: five point buck, which I thought. 237 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: That's the one he showed me. Well, no, that was 238 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 1: the second one. 239 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: That was the eight point buck, which had a basket 240 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: wrack like this that I literally I think I didn't 241 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: clean it for three days. I kept driving it through 242 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 2: town because I was pretty sure it was the state record, 243 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: and I wanted everybody to say I saw it. I 244 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: saw it on the tail gate of his truck. 245 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: You know. 246 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: But you only know what you know. I knew nothing 247 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 2: about deer hunting. I would I would go like behind 248 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: grocery stores and get palettes, and go to construction sites 249 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 2: and get two by fours and I would make my 250 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: own stands. I'd get like railroad spikes and go up 251 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 2: a tree with two by fours and put a palette 252 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: up there, and never thought about the wind, never thought 253 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: about is there a food source or a bedding probably, 254 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: never thought about the safety was no safety, harness, no, 255 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 2: but never thought about any of that stuff, and climb 256 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 2: up and you know, after three years one of the 257 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: steps would rote and you'd drop. I mean, it's a 258 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: wonder we're still here. But I knew I loved it. 259 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 2: I knew I loved being out in the woods by myself, 260 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: which is kind of crazy because like on my dad's farm, 261 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: me and two friends would leave in the morning with 262 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: a twenty two and a twelve game shotgun and take 263 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 2: off through the woods. We had no cel phone, nobody knew. 264 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: Where we were. We didn't know where we were were. 265 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: You know, we just go explore the woods and ended 266 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: up on a road and walked back home. And it 267 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 2: was just a totally different time. 268 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: I've told you a couple of times today that I 269 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: had no idea that here in Georgia, you guys, deer 270 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 1: numbers were so bad that they actually brought in deer 271 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: they had to restop. Yeah, I mean there's a lot 272 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: of areas where it got bad. But I just was 273 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: not aware that they had to do like that, they 274 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: had to do a white tailed deer reintroduction in Georgia. 275 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and did it during the fifties. It's like 276 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: I told you as a kid, Yeah, never saw a deer. 277 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 2: And we're lucky here at the farm because most of 278 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 2: the deer they brought into Georgia they brought from Texas. 279 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 2: In our particular area, they came down from Wisconsin, so 280 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 2: our deer were kind of bigger horned and bigger bodied, 281 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: and it's just a real good portion of the state. 282 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: To hont end. When you were little, what kind of 283 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: you've done a lot of comedy about hunting and sort 284 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: of like parodies on hunting. When you were little, you 285 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: were you aware of any kind of like hunting videos 286 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: and stuff like were you going out and buying VHS 287 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 1: tapes the instructional hunting content? 288 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 2: Dude, I had no idea. So when I was a kid, 289 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: I would save my allowance and I would buy comedy 290 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 2: records Bill Cosby, Flip Wilson, Jerry Klower, you know, and 291 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 2: I'd memorize them and I'd go to school and I 292 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: could do the whole album, and so, you know, I 293 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 2: was the funny kid. But I never, you know, hunting 294 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 2: was hunting. And I remember the first time I was 295 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 2: probably thirty, that I saw a real tree hunting video, 296 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: a deer hunting video, and I'm like, oh my gosh, 297 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 2: people other people can experience deer hunting. Of course, it 298 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 2: was way bigger deer than I ever had seen, you know, 299 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: But but it kind of led to in you mentioned 300 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 2: this in the intro part of hunting. There's that solitary 301 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 2: part that's really good, but there's also that communal part 302 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 2: that you get in a deer camp, not when you're 303 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 2: out actually hunting, but in the camp where it's a 304 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 2: very social thing and there's a lot of laughter going on. 305 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 2: And so I thought, well, if guys are watching videos 306 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: of hunts, why wouldn't they watch funny videos too, And 307 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 2: so I came up with the Incomplete Deer Hunter. Somebody 308 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 2: asked me a while back, they said, who did you 309 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 2: write those? I went, right, yeah, No, we were in 310 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,719 Speaker 2: the woods with deer suits. We had made going what 311 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 2: if we do this, this and this? But I thought 312 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 2: and it was it was a crazy idea. We sold 313 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 2: millions of those. 314 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: But it's like, maybe you didn't write them, but there's 315 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, this is the thing I 316 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: want to ask about. Anyways, this is the there's like 317 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: laughing at your culture from the inside and laughing from 318 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: the outside. And this is something you know intimately. Well, like, yeah, 319 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: your whole expertise is laughing from the inside. 320 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,199 Speaker 2: Well, I'll give you a great example. Like, so you 321 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 2: grew up in Michigan, right, And so I was the 322 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 2: kid when I started comedy.

Well? Did you sometimes just have to 430 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 1: eat it and be like, I'm not going to do 431 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: anything outdoors because I'm going to like, while the fire's 432 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: burning hot, I'm just going to go do my business. 433 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 2: Well, back in the club day, because most clubs were 434 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 2: like Tuesday through Sunday, I had eight years in a row. 435 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 2: I did five hundred shows a year at least. And 436 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 2: you're going, whether there's only three hundred and sixty five nuts, 437 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: but you're doing two shows on Friday night, three shows 438 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: on Saturday night. If you were in a you might 439 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 2: be bouncing from club to club, and I would just 440 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,199 Speaker 2: keep note because I wanted I wanted to be on 441 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: Johnny Carson, and I thought, the only way I'm going 442 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: to do this is kind of the Malcolm Gladwell theory. 443 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: I've got to do it ten thousand times to become 444 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 2: an expert at it. And my goal was everybody said, 445 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 2: it takes you ten years to be a good enough 446 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 2: comedian to be on Carson, and I thought, I'll do 447 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: it in half. I'm going to work so hard night. Yeah, 448 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 2: and it actually took me five years and two months, 449 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 2: but I did it, And so then I didn't I 450 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: didn't do anything but do comedy. But then once I 451 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 2: started moving from cl to like theaters and things like that. 452 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: When you say a club, that's one hundred people, two 453 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: hundred people, hundred people, two hundred people, and when you 454 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: say a theater, it's one thousand and three thousand, Yeah. 455 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 2: Up to four or five thousand. But the great thing 456 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 2: about theaters and that kind of happened because of the albums. 457 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 2: People became aware of you, and then they would they 458 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 2: would come. Well, theaters were more Friday and Saturday, which 459 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 2: was great because it was about the time I had kids, 460 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 2: so I could be home during the week and I 461 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 2: was just going on the weekend doing shows. Then I 462 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 2: could start to get back into hunting and fishing. Fact, 463 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: when I did are You Smarter than the fifth Grader? 464 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: I had it in my contract that I could film 465 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 2: eleven months of the year, but I couldn't film the 466 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 2: month of November. And I had an LA attorney come 467 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 2: up to me and say why, I don't understand. Why 468 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 2: can't you film in November? And I said because it's 469 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 2: the rut?

So even though I was attracted to comedy, 559 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: it never occurred to me that that was a possibility. Yeah, 560 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,959 Speaker 2: you probably hadn't met a comic. No, they were just 561 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 2: on TV. But I was the funny guy. I actually 562 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 2: I worked in a grocery store, and I worked at 563 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: a hotel, and then I got a job I think 564 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 2: my dad, because I flunked out of college after three years. 565 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 2: I think my dad thought I was going to end 566 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 2: up being a near do well, so I think he 567 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: got one of his friends to call and give me 568 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 2: a job at IBM entry level. I was working dispatch, 569 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 2: and then later on I was I carried a toolbag 570 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 2: and fixed machines. But I was the funny guy work. 571 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: I was the guy that was in the break room 572 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 2: doing impersonations of the boss, and then you would turn around, 573 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 2: the boss would be in the doorway. 574 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: I was that guy. 575 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: So I wasn't on the crescendo to be to the top. 576 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 2: And a bunch of guys I worked with entered me 577 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 2: in a comedy competition, not an amateur night, a competition 578 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: for working comedians called the Great Southeastern laugh Off.

And 634 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 2: so I quit my job and I tell my kids, 635 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 2: I'm like that. At that point, well I went. I 636 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 2: did Amateur Night for like six months and little gigs 637 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: around town, but I knew by then I loved it. 638 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: And what was the first money you were making at it? 639 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: I mean, not like, I mean, what was the first 640 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 1: like helpful, usable amount of money. 641 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 2: So December the fourth, nineteen eighty four, they had Amateur 642 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 2: Knight before the regular show. Steven Wright, it's the headliner, 643 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 2: and he found me in the club. He had watched 644 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 2: Hammate Night and he came up and he told me, 645 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 2: he said, you need to be doing this. You should 646 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: be a comic, and which kind of reinforced what my 647 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 2: wife said. And so I went in the next day, 648 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 2: and I told my boss, I'm like, I'm quitting IBM. 649 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 2: And my mother when I told my mother I had quit. 650 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: That's our first question was asked about your parents' perception. 651 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got there eventually.

That was what year eighty four, 662 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 2: So I think I was making like thirty two grand 663 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 2: a year at IBM, and I had health and dental insurance. 664 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 2: My first year of comedy eighty five, first full year, 665 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 2: I did four hundred and six shows and I made 666 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 2: eight three hundred dollars for the year, which is like 667 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 2: twenty bucks a show. 668 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,879 Speaker 1: So at that point, man, you've given Like at that point, 669 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: at that volume, you've really given up a lot of 670 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 1: normal life. 671 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 2: Oh god, yeah, yeah, you're not doing anything. When I 672 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 2: would go out to do the week at the comedy club, 673 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 2: my wife would give me thirty bucks to live on 674 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 2: for the week, and that was gas money and food money, 675 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 2: and you were hoping the club gave you a free meal. 676 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: If a club served food. 677 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 2: A lot of times the comics could eat. We used 678 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 2: to roll pennies and when we had enough, we'd go. 679 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,040 Speaker 1: To the movies. That was our dates. 680 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 2: Really you lived like that, Oh yeah, dude, with no money, 681 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 2: so broke. I left Atlanta. One time I had a 682 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 2: gig at a comedy club that was in a holiday 683 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 2: inn in Sarasota, Florida. I drove down there, and when 684 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 2: I got there, the guy said. 685 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 1: Well did you say that? Where was the gig? 686 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 2: Sarasota, Florida, But in a holiday in. They're a little 687 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: nightclub there, and but the deal was they gave you 688 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 2: a hotel room for the week while you did this. 689 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 2: And when I got there, the guy said, dude, he said, 690 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 2: last night was our last night. We're not making money. 691 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 2: We closed And I'm like, so you're out of business? 692 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 2: Why just driven nine hours? I went in the lobby 693 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 2: bathroom and pee and bought a coke and got back 694 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 2: in the car. So I've driven nine hours and now 695 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 2: I'm turning around driving back home. But I haven't got paid. 696 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: I don't have a credit card, and I'm like, God, 697 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: I hope I got enough money to get home for gas. 698 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 2: And I stopped making Georgia at about three in the morning, 699 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 2: and I'm digging for change underneath the car seat. You know, Oh, 700 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 2: we got forty cents. Let me put that in gas 701 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: in the car. And I got to South Atlanta, where 702 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,799 Speaker 2: I grew up. In the red lights on I'm like, 703 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 2: I'm not going to make it home. So I pull 704 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 2: off the interstate into a gas station and I'm trying 705 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 2: to figure out I don't even have a quarter to 706 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 2: call my wife. And a guy I went to high 707 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: school with pulled up to get gas and I went 708 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,040 Speaker 2: over to him and I said, dude, I'm so embarrassed, 709 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: but I left home this morning without my wallet. I 710 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 2: didn't want to tell him I was that broke. I said, 711 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 2: can I borrow five bucks? He's like, yeah, oh, hell yeah. 712 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 2: So I got home. Years later, he came to my 713 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 2: concert and he goes I remember loading you and I said, dude, 714 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 2: I was so broke. 715 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 1: I had no money to get home. I said, let 716 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: me pay you back. 717 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 2: And he's like, nope, I want you to owe it 718 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 2: to me because it's a much better story. 719 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and some of it still hasn't. It still hasn't 720 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: paid me back. That's that's that's incredible though, that you 721 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: went through all that. I mean, it's great that but 722 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: looking back, yeah, it's it was good. It made oh 723 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 1: I think it made me important man better. I had 724 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,719 Speaker 1: a hunger to get better at it, you know. You 725 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: know people say that comics have like a there's like 726 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: a lot of the more chase and a it's got 727 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: to be fueled somewhere, right. Yeah. I always there's like 728 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: a there's like some sort of demon that needs to 729 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 1: be slay, you know, or else you're not funny, you 730 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like like if everything's just gravy 731 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: all the time, you don't get a chance to be funny. Yeah. 732 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 2: I always heard there they're laughing on the outside, crying 733 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,760 Speaker 2: on the ends. Sure, but I think it's like human beings, 734 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 2: we're we're all different. I think I was probably affected 735 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 2: by my dad leaving because I could make my dad 736 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:02,399 Speaker 2: laugh when I saw him. Well, that was approval God. 737 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:07,360 Speaker 2: So it probably made me work at being funnier. But 738 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 2: I was wired this way. I came from a funny family. 739 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 2: I was wired creative. Part of the reason that I 740 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 2: flunked out of college was I was going to Georgia Tech, 741 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 2: which was an engineering school, and that wasn't my strength. 742 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 2: I remember taking an English class there and writing a 743 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 2: story about deer hunting, and the English teacher goes, have 744 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 2: you ever thought about being a writer. Maybe you're not 745 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 2: an engineer, Maybe you should be a writer. I remember 746 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 2: being in high school and I had no money to 747 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,799 Speaker 2: buy my girlfriend a birthday present. I saw there was 748 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:41,919 Speaker 2: a speech contest at the Elks Lodge that paid fifty bucks. 749 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: I wrote a. 750 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 2: Speech, went down there and won. You know, I had 751 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,960 Speaker 2: taken my girlfriend the red lobster. Maybe here we go. 752 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: So what happened with flunking out of college. 753 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 2: I was at the wrong place. It wasn't my gift, 754 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 2: you know, And I didn't know what my gift was. 755 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 2: But from where I stand now, like God made me 756 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 2: this way, I see the funny in things. It doesn't 757 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 2: mean that I don't get mad or I don't get sad, 758 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 2: but I always look for the funny in it, and 759 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 2: I do believe it's a gift. And I think I'm 760 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 2: a writer. In any great comic is a writer. You 761 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 2: just have to have that brain and you're a writer. 762 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 2: We don't do it necessarily because it's fun. It ain't fun. 763 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,120 Speaker 1: No, I don't enjoy it. I don't enjoy the act. 764 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:40,359 Speaker 1: If you have a hard time with that, doing it 765 00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:44,520 Speaker 1: is not like doing It's not fun. There's a writer, 766 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: Ian Frasier, and he said, when he was little, he 767 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: pictured being a writer. He pictured writers sitting there and 768 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 1: they're typing and they're kind of chuckling to themselves, you know. 769 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: And then only later do you realize that it's just 770 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,280 Speaker 1: like it's just doing it is not enjoyable. 771 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 2: It's not enjoy the menu. You stand up the men, 772 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 2: you stand up finished product. When you look back and 773 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 2: you go, yeah, man, now all right. Let me ask 774 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 2: you a question, because I actually asked Bruce Springsteen this, 775 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,919 Speaker 2: Like I have a pad next to my bed. I've 776 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 2: had it for thirty years with a pen on it, 777 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 2: and I can write in the dark. But so because 778 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 2: you always think you're going to remember it, and you 779 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 2: never do so I've learned, like, rite something about as 780 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 2: your body's relaxing to go to sleep, ideas start coming. 781 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 2: And I've learned to just write a sentence where I 782 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 2: can remember it in the morning. But I also have 783 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 2: a pad next on my bathroom counter. I bet sixty 784 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 2: percent of the things I think of are in the shower. 785 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 2: Oh and so I get out of the shower, and 786 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 2: I actually asked, springstand and so where do you write 787 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: the most? 788 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: Oh? No, I write a lot of stuff in the shower. Man. 789 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 1: Oh really? 790 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so there must be when I'm driving in 791 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 2: the shower and right before I'm going to bed. 792 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: Is usually those times. There's a there's a band I 793 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: like a bit trampled by turtles. Now great name the singers. 794 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: This guy Dave Simonett. He's really good lyrically. And the 795 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: other night he left his uh, he accidentally left his 796 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 1: little notebook at my house. It's sitting on my counter 797 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: right now, and I keep wanting looking that little notebook, 798 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: but I can't bring myself to looking there. I feel 799 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: like it could be like a betrayal kind of is. 800 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: But I'm real curious about it. For a writer, I 801 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 1: have cracked it. I look at it, and I think, man, 802 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 1: whan I look in at that notebook? Yeah, but then 803 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: I feel like I'd be violating some kind of guest 804 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 1: host bond, you know, if I found it on the street, sure, 805 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: but he left it my house. See that's why we 806 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 1: don't crack it open. We just look at it. 807 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 2: I was interested in doing this with you because you're 808 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: a weird combo in that you're very capable, but you're creative, 809 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 2: which are not usually like most really creatives I know 810 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 2: can't tie their sh u, can't fill up their gas tank, 811 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 2: and that's kind of normal. 812 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,240 Speaker 1: I had a dad that pounded all that India. 813 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, he didn't give a lick about the creative No, 814 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 2: mine didn't either, But it was like. 815 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,400 Speaker 1: He wrote something. It was on a it was on 816 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: graph paper, yeah, or on a two by four. You know. 817 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: That's uh. 818 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 2: But I think you and I are have that in common, 819 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 2: is we're capable, but we're creative as well. Rogan's like that, 820 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 2: So it's a weird mix, uh, which because I'm kind 821 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 2: of fascinated by the writer side of you. I saw 822 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 2: where Steve Martin won a writing award and he said, 823 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 2: this means more to me than anything goes. 824 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 1: Writing's hard, yeah, And I'm like, dude, I get it. 825 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,839 Speaker 1: You know it's well yeah, because you guys get like 826 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,319 Speaker 1: like comics, you get known for the performative part, but 827 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 1: prior to the performative parts, the writing part. Do you 828 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 1: know what a writer's minds? It's kind of the end 829 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 1: of it. You're a writer. 830 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 2: It's funny because I'm kind of a physical comic and 831 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 2: people will ask me, do you practice in front of 832 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 2: a mirror? 833 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 1: No? I never think about the performance. Do you ever 834 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:11,400 Speaker 1: have to watch yourself? I hate to watch myself. You 835 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 1: don't know what you look like. I cringe. 836 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 2: Like when I used to do Johnny Carson and you'd 837 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 2: film it like at four or five in the afternoon, 838 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 2: and you'd come home and it would come on. I'd 839 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 2: watch the whole show until I came home. Then I'd 840 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 2: get up and leave the room because I hate the 841 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 2: way I talk, I hate the way I look. I did, 842 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,879 Speaker 2: and my wife would be in the other room, going, 843 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 2: it's really good, come watch it, and I'm like, no, 844 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 2: I can't. 845 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: I can't. You hate the way you look? What do 846 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: you wish you look like? Now? I don't know? Something different? 847 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh, with comedy. It was always the writing, 848 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 2: and you know, and it's kind of like, I know, 849 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 2: when you do it well that the audience thinks, oh 850 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,399 Speaker 2: he just walked out here and. 851 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: Just thought of this. 852 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but I know, I remember when I was 853 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 2: still doing amateur nights. Lena was always so nice to 854 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 2: young comics. 855 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 1: Was he very patient. 856 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 2: And we're sitting at the waffle house and he said, 857 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 2: your goal should be to write one new minute a week. Now, 858 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 2: think about that. Your goal should be to write one 859 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,960 Speaker 2: new minute a week because you're special every year, And 860 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 2: well it does. And in my mind, I'm thinking, are 861 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,360 Speaker 2: you out of your mind? I can write twenty or 862 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 2: thirty minutes a week. 863 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:28,359 Speaker 1: No, he was right. 864 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 2: If you can write one minute that a room full 865 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 2: of strangers are going to laugh at every time you 866 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:38,439 Speaker 2: say it. Over the course of a year, you've got 867 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 2: a new you've got a new album, you've got a 868 00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 2: new special, you know, whatever it is. And but that 869 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 2: wasn't easy. I mean, you had to be working to 870 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,120 Speaker 2: get sixty new minutes a year, which was always so 871 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 2: sad because you do a special on crap. All that 872 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: work now got to start all. 873 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: Over, walk me through and the flow of the flow 874 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: of an idea if you don't practice front of a mirror, 875 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: so you get like an observation that like your wife's 876 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 1: butts cold when she climbs in bed, Yeah, how her 877 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 1: bucket cold? Yeah. You drive around and your tract or whatever, 878 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 1: and you think about that and you think that's funny. 879 00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 1: You never going in the gate like that. It just 880 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 1: lives in your head. Then you try it out like 881 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 1: you never do, like, hey, film me talking about this. 882 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 2: It's like it starts with a with a thought, and 883 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:39,839 Speaker 2: then I'm like, like if I thought of something when 884 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 2: maybe I think this is funny, like and you and 885 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 2: I were having a conversation, I'd figure out a way 886 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 2: to work it into the conversation and to see and 887 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 2: if you laughed, I went, Okay, that's a valid thought. 888 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 1: And then so you try it out like you try 889 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: it out in your buddies on them knowing it. Yeah. 890 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 2: And then so in the early days, I always envisioned 891 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 2: it like Clay. I would go out there and throw 892 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 2: an idea out, say it's five sentences and three of 893 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 2: them worked, So I'd keep the three that worked, get 894 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 2: rid of the two that didn't, and then the next 895 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 2: night I'd try two or three more, and so it 896 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 2: was like adding a little piece of clay every night, 897 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 2: and there, over a course of a month, you've got 898 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 2: a new ten minute bit. As I've gotten older, I 899 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 2: kind of did the opposite is I would start with 900 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 2: a big glob and just go out there and try it, 901 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 2: which I don't know why, but everything that didn't work, 902 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 2: I'd cut it off and cut it off and just 903 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 2: kept and so in the early days, my bits were 904 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 2: two and three minutes long. Now they tend to be 905 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 2: twenty and thirty minutes long, right, really long pieces. 906 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: When you say a bit, you mean like you'll do that, 907 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:49,359 Speaker 1: You'll spend that time on a subject. Yeah, like having 908 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 1: a kidney stone, you know. So, but you're not going 909 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 1: to get done with that in two minutes. No. 910 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 2: Well, and here's my thought. If you go to all 911 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 2: the trouble to set it up, which is the part 912 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 2: you're not getting a laugh. Once you get it set up, 913 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 2: why not go you got a harvest, big deep and 914 00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 2: get like Jim Gaffigan talking about bacon. You know, I'm 915 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 2: a comic, and I'm like, how long can you talk 916 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 2: about bacon for two or three minutes? At minute twenty 917 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 2: of gafficking. I've got my hands in my head going, 918 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 2: how can you talk about bacon for twenty minutes? 919 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 1: This is hilarious. Yeah, that's a good observation. You gotta 920 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 1: set you gotta set the story up. Yeah, but if 921 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,359 Speaker 1: you've gotten to start spinning off and then it needs 922 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:33,240 Speaker 1: to spin off jokes? Yeah, yeah? What uh? When you were? 923 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 1: Not when you were? Because as you meet comics, are 924 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: you guys always bound? Like do you feel that you're 925 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: bound to other comics through the comedy or do you 926 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 1: feel like the sort of political and social differences do? 927 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, like, do you run into you when you're 928 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 1: doing running another comics and like, is it like you're 929 00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: sort of like the redneck guy from the south and 930 00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 1: so you're ostracized or is it just the that comedy 931 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,720 Speaker 1: brings your whole circle of professional colleagues together. 932 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 2: I mean, I think when you're starting out, it's so 933 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 2: competitive and everybody's trying to get a hand on the 934 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 2: ledge that you're really cut throat with each other. And 935 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 2: you know the thing about the redneck jokes? They were 936 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,399 Speaker 2: one liners, and so we live in an age where 937 00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:24,240 Speaker 2: nobody does one liners. But they were easy to remember. 938 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 2: They were easy to retell you know what I mean, 939 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 2: And so I could do them on the radio, and 940 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 2: I could do ten of them, so there's ten laughs 941 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,880 Speaker 2: and people could remember them, they could repeat them. But 942 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:41,359 Speaker 2: it was a way for people to remember my name. 943 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 2: But at the height of it, it was three minutes 944 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 2: out of an hour and a half show. 945 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 1: And so for. 946 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:57,880 Speaker 2: People that thought that was all I did, I'm like, no, 947 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,760 Speaker 2: you haven't watched me. Mostly what I do is material 948 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 2: about my wife and my family and my kids. And 949 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 2: but it was a way for them to remember their name. 950 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 2: I find the longer you do it, you realize it's 951 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:13,760 Speaker 2: a wonderful job. 952 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:16,359 Speaker 1: But it's hard. 953 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 2: You you don't last unless you work hard at it. 954 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:25,520 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, I love to look for arrowheads. 955 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 2: If I walk into guy's house and he's got a 956 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,879 Speaker 2: display case full of unbroken arrowheads, I knew that took 957 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 2: a long time. That took a long long time to 958 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,520 Speaker 2: find that many unbroken era heads. The same way with 959 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,279 Speaker 2: a comic, and so you can can I have a 960 00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 2: respect for each other. 961 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 1: I want to get return this. If I want to 962 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: tell you another metric. Okay, you consider how many mountain 963 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 1: lions have you seen? That's a metric for time spent 964 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: time spent messing around out How many of you seen 965 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 1: Not many? I spent a lot of time messing around 966 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: on outside. Yeah, I think I've had I've seen six 967 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:06,440 Speaker 1: that weren't being chased by dogs. Well that's pretty cool. 968 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: Well I got a Boddy who spends a lot of 969 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: time outside. Last time I talked to him, he was 970 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: on like thirty five or something. Oh my gosh. I 971 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 1: didn't mean interrupt the chain of thought. I I'm know 972 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 1: what you're saying. Like, I had to get back to 973 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:18,600 Speaker 1: a bow. 974 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 2: One time and I was trailing them and h Glenn, 975 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 2: my farm manager who you met, went back to get 976 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: us some water and all, and so I just sat 977 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 2: down and when he came back, he goes, dude, there's 978 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 2: mountain lion tracks in your footprints.

I want to do it. I want to 1006 00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 2: do things that aren't easy. Like when I was a kid, 1007 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 2: I just wanted to shoot a deer that had antlers. 1008 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:29,279 Speaker 2: I just wanted to kill a deer, any antler, It 1009 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 2: didn't matter.

You want to shoot a bigger one. 1012 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:40,319 Speaker 2: But you get to a point like because I was 1013 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:42,240 Speaker 2: doing a lot of hunting shows. I was doing hunting 1014 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,600 Speaker 2: shows for real tree and bucks of Takamani, and I 1015 00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 2: was getting to go places and hunt really cool things 1016 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 2: and shoot really big deer. And I had a year 1017 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,879 Speaker 2: where I shot a thirteen point deer. He's out there 1018 00:54:54,880 --> 00:55:00,399 Speaker 2: in the in manland, out there, huge deer. Shot him 1019 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 2: with a gun and three hundred and fifty yards. And 1020 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 2: then I came back to my farm, and my farm 1021 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 2: enginer only bow hunted, and I was starting to play 1022 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 2: around with it. That's your buddy here, Glenn. And the 1023 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 2: next weekend I shot one hundred and thirty eight inch deer, 1024 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 2: but he was poping young with a bow and arrow, 1025 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:19,799 Speaker 2: and I sat up there and I just shook, and 1026 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:23,399 Speaker 2: I could remember being fifteen years old, and the deer 1027 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:25,239 Speaker 2: I shot at three hundred and fifty yards had no 1028 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,759 Speaker 2: idea that I was there. I didn't really have to 1029 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 2: be that stealth. I was a long way away, but 1030 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 2: the one I shot at thirty yards that was close 1031 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:38,920 Speaker 2: and personal. And I remember I called my wife. I 1032 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 2: never called my wife when she's cooking dinner back at home, 1033 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 2: and I'm. 1034 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 1: Like, oh my god, I just I shot a fuck 1035 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: with my boat. 1036 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 2: And I thought, this is what I want to feel like, 1037 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 2: this is what I want hunting to feel like. And 1038 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 2: so I'm like, I'm not doing a gun anymore. I'm 1039 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 2: gonna hunt with a bow. 1040 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 1: I was horrible at it. 1041 00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 2: I mean, it took me two or three year years 1042 00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 2: to even get I messed up. I kept drawing at 1043 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:05,799 Speaker 2: the wrong time, you know, so you sat there for 1044 00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 2: two hours waiting on a dough to come up, and 1045 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 2: now you draw at the wrong time, spooker and she 1046 00:56:10,719 --> 00:56:12,480 Speaker 2: runs off, and You're like, okay, I gotta wait till 1047 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 2: her head's behind a tree. But there was something about 1048 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 2: wanting to do it the hard way. And once I 1049 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 2: had started being pretty good at shooting deer with it, 1050 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 2: I'm like, I want to go hunt an elk. 1051 00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 1: I want to, but not with a gun.

I didn't want to shoot one over a 1057 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,319 Speaker 2: barrel of doughnuts. I wanted to go find a bear 1058 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 2: and shoot them with my bow. Well it ended up 1059 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 2: doing that because and I don't know if you ever 1060 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 2: feel like this, but like I would watch videos of 1061 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 2: people hunting moose with a bow and I kept going, 1062 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 2: holy crap, that is so scary.

They learned to 1149 01:01:55,960 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 2: make a projectile point, they learned to make a grinder. 1150 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 2: A bowl and a grinder, let's mash up acorns or 1151 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 2: corn or whatever. They were such capable people. So when 1152 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:15,360 Speaker 2: I look at artifacts, I'm thinking, ay, if I pick 1153 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 2: it up and go, all right, I'm the first human 1154 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 2: being in seven thousand years to hold this. But mostly 1155 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 2: I think about there were some woman or some man 1156 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,720 Speaker 2: sitting here making this, not thinking oh this is pretty 1157 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,479 Speaker 2: or this is artistic. They're thinking I need to carve 1158 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,520 Speaker 2: up that squirrel tonight for dinner. They were making it 1159 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 2: to live, and I think that's what got me kind 1160 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,560 Speaker 2: of fascinated with it. And the first trip I ever 1161 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:44,440 Speaker 2: went on, Glenn took me on a trip up to 1162 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 2: North Carolina. He had a buddy that was planting strawberries, and. 1163 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:51,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you guys, we'll go. Every day you'll travel, 1164 01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 1: you'll go like on a hunting trip, but to go 1165 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:55,840 Speaker 1: if you get an opportunity to go. Look something like 1166 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:56,240 Speaker 1: I just. 1167 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 2: Did a thing for wounded warriors out in Texas. Well, 1168 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:00,800 Speaker 2: I knew it was going to be out there, and 1169 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:02,920 Speaker 2: I called a friend that was close by. I go, hey, 1170 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:06,200 Speaker 2: you got any buddies of the arrowhead hunt? And he goes, yeah, 1171 01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:07,640 Speaker 2: I got a friend that loves it. And I'm like, 1172 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 2: find out if we can go with him. So I 1173 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 2: fly out there and do something good, do the Wounded 1174 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 2: Warrior show. 1175 01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 1: They raise like a million bucks. It was cool. 1176 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 2: But then the next morning we're out looking for arrowheads, 1177 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:21,400 Speaker 2: so try to combine them together now, and. 1178 01:03:21,360 --> 01:03:24,800 Speaker 1: Then you have a lot of stuff from this property 1179 01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 1: you were showing me. Yeah, but I don't mean to 1180 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 1: criticize it, but you even said it too. It's like 1181 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,080 Speaker 1: it's ugly. It's ugly, but it's ugly because of. 1182 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 2: They didn't have They didn't have rock to work, they 1183 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 2: didn't have flint. They had courts, which is very hard 1184 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:43,280 Speaker 2: to make thin and pretty. It was functional, but they 1185 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:46,880 Speaker 2: just don't make pretty arrowheads. But like, I made friends 1186 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 2: in Arkansas that have beautiful flint. I made friends in 1187 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 2: Texas that have beautiful flint. I have friends in Kentucky. 1188 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 2: So hell, we'll get in the car and drive to Kentucky. 1189 01:03:56,920 --> 01:04:00,080 Speaker 2: If somebody says, I've got a plowfield and it's rained. 1190 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, what were you mentioned? You're going where someone was 1191 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:02,919 Speaker 1: putting in strawberries. 1192 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:08,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so they had plowed this field and it 1193 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:10,880 Speaker 2: was going to rain, and they're fixing the planet. Yeah, 1194 01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 2: they're fixing, but they hadn't planted it yet, but they 1195 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:16,640 Speaker 2: plowed it. But when you plow it, it's kind of 1196 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:19,000 Speaker 2: dusty and you can't really see anything. So you need 1197 01:04:19,040 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 2: it to rain in a time or two. But the 1198 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 2: guy said, he said, y'all better be up here in 1199 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:27,480 Speaker 2: the morning or the meth heads will kill it, cause 1200 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:29,400 Speaker 2: the meth heads will go out there and look for 1201 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 2: airheads and sell them. That's my kind of meth head man. Yeah, 1202 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 2: I never heard of that before. 1203 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:34,080 Speaker 1: Dude. 1204 01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 2: You can go up there. It can rain that night, 1205 01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:40,440 Speaker 2: and you can be there at sunrise and the field 1206 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 2: is covered in footprints and you're like, how is this 1207 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 2: humanly possible? How do you do this? And so the 1208 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:53,200 Speaker 2: first place I ever went with him, i'd walked thirty 1209 01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 2: feet from the truck and I saw some thought it 1210 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:55,480 Speaker 2: was a. 1211 01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:58,600 Speaker 1: Piece off attractor, like a spark plug. Picked it up. 1212 01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:01,920 Speaker 2: I'm looking around. They had and pottery and things, and 1213 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 2: as I'm doing it, I'm like, I don't feel like 1214 01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 2: plastic and it's a. 1215 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 1: Pipe, you know. Yeah, so fine, it's because you were 1216 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 1: you were when you're doing that. Like how when you're 1217 01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:11,600 Speaker 1: looking on the ground you'll sometimes hold something in you 1218 01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 1: just kind of worry it. 1219 01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:17,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I worry it. That's great because I'm always got 1220 01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:20,680 Speaker 2: something in my hand whatever, the most interesting things. Yeah, 1221 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 2: oh that's a cool rock. You'll walk around with it 1222 01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 2: in your hand. It's whirl it in your thumb. 1223 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. So uh. 1224 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 2: And I'm like, crap, that's not a tractor part. That's 1225 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 2: a pipe. It was a stone pipe. And I go 1226 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 2: over to Glenn, who's been looking for thirty years, and 1227 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 2: I go, dude, look what I found. He was so 1228 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 2: pissed he turned around and walked straight away from me, 1229 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 2: didn't talk to me the rest of the day. 1230 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: Mmm. But then I was hooked. If you ever do 1231 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:50,240 Speaker 1: go do Rogan show, you should bring that pipe. Let him, uh, 1232 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 1: let him pull a rip, Let him pull a rip 1233 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,600 Speaker 1: off that pipe. Man, he probably get a real kick 1234 01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 1: out of it. Yeah, Native American. Yeah, why not, right, 1235 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 1: he'd probably love that. So. 1236 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 2: Uh how much time he's spend hunting though, Like you 1237 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 2: get some time out now, Yeah, I get some time out. 1238 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:09,560 Speaker 1: You know. 1239 01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:11,520 Speaker 2: I'm kind of weird. Like I just had a friend 1240 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:17,280 Speaker 2: that went to Africa, because I've been to Africa, but 1241 01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 2: not to hunt. Been to Africa like six times. I'd 1242 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 2: like to do it, but I'm kind of weird. Like 1243 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 2: he wanted to go hunt a leopard. I have no desire. 1244 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 2: I don't want to shoot something I'm not going to eat. 1245 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,440 Speaker 2: And there's nothing wrong with that. I'm just this is me. 1246 01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,480 Speaker 2: This is the way I'm weird. There's some guys that 1247 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:44,960 Speaker 2: have foot fetishes, right, and I'm and I look at 1248 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 2: them and go, have you seen boobs? Because they're they're 1249 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:53,200 Speaker 2: not bad either, you know, but uh, I mean but 1250 01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:56,280 Speaker 2: to each is, well, here's the thing about the foot 1251 01:06:56,280 --> 01:07:01,640 Speaker 2: fetish too. What he views as gerie I call a 1252 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:08,600 Speaker 2: flip flop, right, I mean, but so when I say that, 1253 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 2: I'm not being critical of somebody that wants to hunt 1254 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:14,800 Speaker 2: a leopard. And that's just the way I'm wired is 1255 01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 2: if I shoot something, I want to eat it. So 1256 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,760 Speaker 2: but I would like to go I'd like to go 1257 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:23,800 Speaker 2: to Africa and bow hunt, and I still hunt with 1258 01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 2: a gun, Like I just go, Yeah, Well. 1259 01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 1: I thought, maybe you gave it all up for your 1260 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:31,280 Speaker 1: bowl big game.

So and I've seen chronic wasting disease. 1406 01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 2: I've seen it's when nature takes care of it. It's ugly, 1407 01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:15,720 Speaker 2: much more humane. And I don't and I'm not shooting them. 1408 01:15:16,040 --> 01:15:20,880 Speaker 2: It's not the killing.

So, and if 1410 01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 2: you don't like it, that's okay. I don't have to 1411 01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:28,200 Speaker 2: like everything you do, but I like the fact that 1412 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:34,160 Speaker 2: you show that you know you just you don't have 1413 01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 2: to like it, but I do.

It's the biggest classroom in 1415 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:44,880 Speaker 2: the world is the outdoors. 1416 01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:48,760 Speaker 1: Yep, well man, thanks for thanks for being a hunter, 1417 01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:53,599 Speaker 1: Thanks for making everybody laugh and making everyone laugh without 1418 01:15:53,720 --> 01:16:00,760 Speaker 1: capitalizing on hate and discord, but just laughing at yourself. Man, Yeah, 1419 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 1: laughing at ourselves. And I think we've. 1420 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:05,720 Speaker 2: Kind of forgotten how to do this is right now 1421 01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:12,000 Speaker 2: in society people are people have to be right, which 1422 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,960 Speaker 2: means you have to be wrong, which means we're not 1423 01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:17,439 Speaker 2: going to have conversation because I'm not going to engage 1424 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:18,760 Speaker 2: in a conversation where I have. 1425 01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:19,320 Speaker 1: To be wrong. 1426 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 2: And we need to give up our need to be right. 1427 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:26,320 Speaker 2: Because what you find as you age is things that 1428 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:30,880 Speaker 2: you argued vehemently for as you were twenty. Now I 1429 01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:36,599 Speaker 2: find myself argued vehemently against. I'm like you, learn and 1430 01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:43,080 Speaker 2: you know, we're all wrong about something. We're The truth is, 1431 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 2: we're all wrong about a lot of things. But we 1432 01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:48,800 Speaker 2: have to engage in those conversations. So, like with you, 1433 01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 2: I want to know what you know that I don't know. 1434 01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 2: Those are the conversations I. 1435 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:58,479 Speaker 1: Like to have. I think a way to describe aging. 1436 01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 1: One way to describe aging would be it's a process 1437 01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: by which you become less and less interested in your 1438 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:07,559 Speaker 1: own opinion. Agreed. 1439 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I told my kids, I said, I miss my 1440 01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:15,080 Speaker 2: thirty year old body, but I wouldn't trade my sixty 1441 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:16,559 Speaker 2: year old mind and soul. 1442 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 1: To get it back. Because you realize so. 1443 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,559 Speaker 2: Many things you wanted to fight about when you're young, 1444 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:26,439 Speaker 2: you get old, it ain't worth it. It'll sort itself out. 1445 01:17:26,680 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 2: Half the things you worry about more than half. Ninety 1446 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,599 Speaker 2: percent of the things you worry about, they never happen, 1447 01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:37,719 Speaker 2: and so you kind of there is a wisdom that comes, 1448 01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 2: and that wisdom comes with Everything's not a confrontation you 1449 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 2: and I. Here's the thing I think politically, you can 1450 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 2: have two people on total opposite ends of the spectrum. 1451 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,519 Speaker 2: But if you sat them down and you said, what 1452 01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:59,160 Speaker 2: do you want out of lie? What do you care about? 1453 01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,640 Speaker 2: What you we would agree on eighty five percent of 1454 01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:06,760 Speaker 2: the same things. We all want to be able to 1455 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 2: take care of our family. We want to be able 1456 01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 2: to take care of our kids, We want them to 1457 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:12,759 Speaker 2: live in a safe place. We want to have food 1458 01:18:12,760 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 2: in our stomach. Fifteen percent would be different. What we 1459 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,439 Speaker 2: should celebrate is that eighty five percent that we're alike. 1460 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 2: You and I grew up in different parts of the 1461 01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:28,559 Speaker 2: country different ways. But as we sit here and talk, 1462 01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 2: we realize, oh, Steve and I are a lot alike 1463 01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 2: on this and the parts that are different. That's what 1464 01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 2: makes you Steve and what makes me Jeff. But what 1465 01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 2: we want to do right now is we want to 1466 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:43,640 Speaker 2: fight and scream and yell at each other about the 1467 01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:47,160 Speaker 2: fifteen percent instead of going crap, eighty five percent You 1468 01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:52,240 Speaker 2: and I want the same thing. Why why aren't we 1469 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:54,559 Speaker 2: based in that we can talk about the other. But 1470 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:59,240 Speaker 2: how boring would it be if we all want it 1471 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 2: and thought alike, you know, crap? 1472 01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:03,559 Speaker 1: That would be. 1473 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,000 Speaker 2: That's one of the things I love about nature is 1474 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:09,160 Speaker 2: And if you don't have faith, I don't care.

There's been 1501 01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 1: a like this idea I've been toying around in my 1502 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:40,360 Speaker 1: head about when I and I've talked about this a 1503 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:45,599 Speaker 1: number of times, is I compare sometimes my lived experience, right, 1504 01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:48,960 Speaker 1: like what happens me going about my day, going to 1505 01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:51,200 Speaker 1: a gas station down the road from here, whatever what happens, 1506 01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:54,880 Speaker 1: going about my day, and then me reading about what 1507 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 1: my American life is supposed to be like, yeah, and 1508 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 1: in reading about what my American life, life is supposed 1509 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 1: to be like, it's supposed to be defined by polarization, 1510 01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:12,799 Speaker 1: political violence, right, yeah, whatever, all of this economic strain, 1511 01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:18,320 Speaker 1: social economic upheaval, you know. And I'm like, go, Okay, 1512 01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:21,760 Speaker 1: I got it, that's what life's like. But why is 1513 01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:25,839 Speaker 1: that not line up at all with what your experience 1514 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:28,439 Speaker 1: with what happens when I'm like talking to my neighbors, 1515 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:30,120 Speaker 1: who I don't know the first thing about where they 1516 01:21:30,120 --> 01:21:32,400 Speaker 1: are at politically, or why does that not happen when 1517 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:34,200 Speaker 1: I go into a gas station?

Which of those do you believe? 1522 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 1: Which is the truth? I'm leaning toward thinking that the 1523 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:50,479 Speaker 1: lived one is the truth. It is the truth. You 1524 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:51,640 Speaker 1: follow me. 1525 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:53,639 Speaker 2: I've gotten to the point I say when I walk 1526 01:21:53,720 --> 01:21:57,479 Speaker 2: on stage, and I do I said, I'm standing on 1527 01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:01,800 Speaker 2: the sides of the stage. I remind myself that everybody 1528 01:22:02,560 --> 01:22:05,160 Speaker 2: that I'm going to look at is going through some 1529 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:06,920 Speaker 2: kind of a struggle. And now it might be a 1530 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 2: physical struggle, it might be emotional, it might be financial, 1531 01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:16,000 Speaker 2: but they're going through something. And that's why, really my 1532 01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 2: whole life, I'm like, just have grace with people because 1533 01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:21,519 Speaker 2: you don't know their backstory, you don't know what they're 1534 01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:31,040 Speaker 2: going through, So have a little grace with them. And 1535 01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:34,519 Speaker 2: I think that's the cool thing about laughter is you know, 1536 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:37,000 Speaker 2: we're all in a struggle. That's why I love what 1537 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:40,160 Speaker 2: I do is I can go visit kids in the 1538 01:22:40,200 --> 01:22:43,760 Speaker 2: hospital and they might have my book, or they might 1539 01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 2: have my game, or they might have my DVD, and 1540 01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 2: they didn't know I was coming. So there's something that 1541 01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:52,439 Speaker 2: I've created that has given them an escape from the 1542 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,800 Speaker 2: struggle that they're going through. And I went, oh, that's 1543 01:22:55,880 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 2: kind of a cool benefit to this. But yeah, we 1544 01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:03,880 Speaker 2: don't give each other much grace. You know, you don't know, 1545 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:08,639 Speaker 2: Like I worked it a totally under the radar, didn't 1546 01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 2: want anybody to know but get up every week and 1547 01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 2: I worked down at a homeless shelter in downtown Line 1548 01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:18,920 Speaker 2: for twelve years get up on Tuesday morning five o'clock 1549 01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:22,320 Speaker 2: and go down there and work. And my opinion of 1550 01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:25,639 Speaker 2: homeless used to be like, oh, you're too lazy to work. 1551 01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:26,920 Speaker 1: Or you're well. 1552 01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:29,400 Speaker 2: Most of them were in some kind of addiction. But 1553 01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:32,760 Speaker 2: if you learn their story, if you come to learn 1554 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:39,040 Speaker 2: their story, something bad happened. They were molested, they were abused, 1555 01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 2: they were and so the addiction wasn't really the problem 1556 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 2: that that was the symptom. That was I got to 1557 01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:50,840 Speaker 2: numb this painful feeling and then you start having grace 1558 01:23:50,880 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 2: with them going crap, dude, I would have numbed too. 1559 01:23:56,960 --> 01:24:01,280 Speaker 2: We need to get back as a as a society, 1560 01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:08,200 Speaker 2: just start doing that with each other.
