Speaker 4: K'sn How are you doing these days.
Speaker 7: I'm doing great. I've I've been, you know, golfing a lot.
Speaker 7: I got a package today, by the way from oh

Speaker 7: And I'll show you mine first.
Speaker 1: It's got it's a jersey with my name on it.

Speaker 7: whose name is on this one?
Speaker 4: Kill Griff, Yeah, kil Griff.
Speaker 1: It says kill Griff on it.
Speaker 5: I'm thrilled.
Speaker 4: You know what, that is actually going to go over
Speaker 4: big in my family.
Speaker 8: Because I know for spy area, right represent if for
Speaker 8: no other reason just to show it to your dad
Speaker 8: and like check it out, fuck nuts, that literally scared me.
Speaker 8: There's just I don't know where it came from.
Speaker 7: I think I was channeling an old Jimmy Pardo joke
Speaker 7: this sun where he gets a check and he shows
Speaker 7: it to Danielle and he's like, look at that, fuck nuts,
Speaker 7: time to start carrying your weight. That's a Jimmy Pardo
Speaker 7: joke and it entered my brain.
Speaker 5: Oh I love it.
Speaker 7: You said you had a story before we bring our
Speaker 7: guests back. Do you still want Yes, it's going to
Speaker 7: go quickly.
Speaker 8: But my dog, George is a part lab, part hound,
Speaker 8: and she is very neurotic.
Speaker 4: She's got some problems. And one of the things can
Speaker 4: you see her, uh huh.
Speaker 8: One of the things that she does and always has done,
Speaker 8: even at my old house, she loves to dig a hole.
Speaker 8: And not just like a little hole like you imagine
Speaker 8: a dog digging at the other house, she dug a
Speaker 8: hole under my patio cement where her entire body would disappear.
Speaker 8: She was like tunneling under the patio. And we call
Speaker 8: it the project because she just won't stop doing it,
Speaker 8: and I kind of don't try to get her to stop. Yeah,
Speaker 8: So we moved, of course, move in to a new house.
Speaker 8: She picks a new project, and she's been digging behind
Speaker 8: this tree. I've lived here for two years and she's
Speaker 8: she won't I can't get her stop, and I'll catch
Speaker 8: her and try to be me into her, but I
Speaker 8: never actually disciplined these dogs in any way, and so
Speaker 8: she's just been so I told I have a lady
Speaker 8: that's re landscaping in my backyard because there's all this
Speaker 8: shit that's dead and I have to redo it. And
Speaker 8: so I was like, and this tree, I think my
Speaker 8: dog is either killing or like has killed, Like this
Speaker 8: tree is in crisis because my dog won't stop digging.
Speaker 7: Or maybe that's why digging is happening because she knows
Speaker 7: there's like root rod or something.
Speaker 8: No listen to this, but good guess, because listen to this.
Speaker 8: The landscaping lady brought a tree expert, and the tree
Speaker 8: expert told she she like stuck her head in my
Speaker 8: house and goes, Caroen, I have to tell you something.
Speaker 4: She was laughing her ass off. The tree expert goes, this.
Speaker 8: Tree is too tall to be built in this area
Speaker 8: because it's like there's a you know, there's almost like
Speaker 8: a patio ceiling near it that's keeping it low. He goes,
Speaker 8: they actually planted it buried way too high on the
Speaker 8: root system. So the tree has been choking to death slowly,
Speaker 8: and your dog digging behind it has air rated the
Speaker 8: root system. And your dog brought this tree back to
Speaker 8: life by digging this hole. All right, So what I've
Speaker 8: been yelling at her for tree.
Speaker 7: Scream at some frequency that only dogs recognize, and they're
Speaker 7: asking for help.
Speaker 8: And she's like an emt, a tree emt, where she's like,
Speaker 8: let the first of all, check out these nails. You
Speaker 8: haven't trimmed in two years. Let me get back there
Speaker 8: and do this tree a favor. And literally, he goes,
Speaker 8: your dog has saved this tree, and you should get
Speaker 8: her to do it around the front because that would
Speaker 8: completely grow and be green all the time.
Speaker 4: How insane is that?
Speaker 7: Yeah, it'd be funny if she was like and it
Speaker 7: was done with such surgical persons decision that I refuse
Speaker 7: to believe your dog wasn't in a past life.
Speaker 1: Some ar brist.
Speaker 5: Every arbor day, George gets very formal.
Speaker 1: Loots right, it's on that one hind leg and salutes.
Speaker 8: I would, yeah, I would say that my dog, George's
Speaker 8: passion is trees, and I guess.
Speaker 4: It always has been. And I just didn't see her
Speaker 4: as who she was.
Speaker 1: That is the best, Yeah, saving the day.
Speaker 4: I think, don't you think we should introduce our guests
Speaker 4: now that we tho it's perfect?
Speaker 7: That really was great, by the way, and it came
Speaker 7: to a nice conclusion and I just kind of dropped
Speaker 7: the ball.
Speaker 1: I couldn't think.
Speaker 4: Of a well I knew.
Speaker 7: I know two other people that are growing healthily in
Speaker 7: the podcasting comedy scene.
Speaker 9: Our guests today, Yes, yeah, they both are getting holding
Speaker 9: deals at CBS, but we'll talk about it.
Speaker 8: They are the hosts of the new podcast as Truth Hounds.
Speaker 8: Please welcome Kyle Mazzono and Anna Sarah Gina Yay Hi,
Speaker 8: thanks for having us. Hi, Hi guys, Hi, guys.
Speaker 4: What a journey.
Speaker 1: Anne are you? Are you still my neighbor? No, you moved.
Speaker 5: I moved.
Speaker 1: Where the hell did you go?
Speaker 5: Okay, I left you. I go leave him alone, leave
Speaker 5: him behind.
Speaker 1: She was always hanging out near my garage.
Speaker 5: I'm always hanging on your Chris's garage from loitering.
Speaker 1: Loitering, walking by, going to work and things.
Speaker 5: One time I ran into you. I really, sincerely had
Speaker 5: not seen a person in a really long time.
Speaker 1: Neither I remember this.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I took a chance. My thesis for today is,
Speaker 5: don't take a chance. I took a chance. I go
Speaker 5: something so weird happened. I have to tell someone again.
Speaker 5: Hadn't seen Chris since the pandemic had begun. You know,
Speaker 5: always very excited to see Chris. It's not anything about that,
Speaker 5: but I go, Chris, I haven't seen you in quite
Speaker 5: some time. Give ten to fifteen minutes for a quick
Speaker 5: story of something.
Speaker 1: Neighbor. What was it?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Can you tell it again?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 5: The story, I mean, boy, howdy, the story is not
Speaker 5: very good. But basically, right before I moved from my apartment,
Speaker 5: And is that okay to say? Yeah, where it was
Speaker 5: your neighbor?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, get me coming.
Speaker 5: Okay, Right before I moved from my house, this neighbor
Speaker 5: had just moved in and she was a replacement to
Speaker 5: a neighbor who had given me such grief for so long.
Speaker 5: He was a guy who rocked, and by that I
Speaker 5: mean we both lived in studio apartments, and he would
Speaker 5: he would plug into an amp and play like Blackbird
Speaker 5: for no exaggeration, seven hours, just just the beginning of
Speaker 5: Blackbird for about seven hours. One time he played the
Speaker 5: little remade theme song, you know, just one time he
Speaker 5: played an apple ringtone, So anyway, this isn't a damn Rocks.
Speaker 5: And one time I finally told him to turn it
Speaker 5: down and he goes, do you know who I had
Speaker 5: in here? The other week? Billy gibbons from zz Top.
Speaker 5: So anyway, so that guy moved. I was so happy.
Speaker 5: I was over the moon because this guy.
Speaker 8: Wait, sorry, how did you Yeah exactly, but also how
Speaker 8: did you come back from that devastating rejoinder?
Speaker 5: Like one of you asked, I said, I paused, I
Speaker 5: swallowed really hard. I thought about how this is my
Speaker 5: moment to shine, and I go, you know what, I'm
Speaker 5: sure all of us has has had somebody very impressive
Speaker 5: in our apartments throughout the years, but it's really not
Speaker 5: about that right now.
Speaker 8: Like a you're like a grammar school principle just handling
Speaker 8: shit in and I'm mature fashion.
Speaker 5: I've been dreaming about handling it with this guy. I mean,
Speaker 5: this guy he's like would wear a tiny vest. I
Speaker 5: heard him say one time. I would hear him bring
Speaker 5: tinder dates over all the time. And we lived right.
Speaker 6: On I think that's okay to say at this point.
Speaker 5: And he would bring tender dates over all the time.
Speaker 5: And I heard him say the same thing to every
Speaker 5: tender date, which is the place isn't that big because
Speaker 5: it's a studio. He'd go, the place isn't really that big,
Speaker 5: but and then he'd open the front door show the
Speaker 5: tender date the lake and go but this is my
Speaker 5: living room.
Speaker 10: Oh what a York.
Speaker 1: And then he'd go right into Blackbird.
Speaker 5: And they were looking at seven to eight hours of blackbirds.
Speaker 1: So he left and you got the place. Was it
Speaker 1: better or worse?
Speaker 5: So he leaves, and I'm like, this is gonna be
Speaker 5: Whoever this is is an angel, I'm going to give
Speaker 5: them a gift basket just but just because they're them,
Speaker 5: and it is and I should be happy, and I should,
Speaker 5: I should be really really happy. And it's it looks
Speaker 5: like a it's like a woman in her thirties and
Speaker 5: she has a Vans. She has Vans tapestry on her wall.
Speaker 5: So I go, Okay, she rocks, but in a way
Speaker 5: that you know that I can really get behind. She
Speaker 5: rocks on my terms. Yeah, yeah, imagine my surprise in dismay.
Speaker 5: And I don't even I feel like I can't even
Speaker 5: complain about this because the guy was so bad. But
Speaker 5: the thing about her is that she has all these succulents.
Speaker 5: I don't hate it yet. I think that's fine. She
Speaker 5: has like, I don't know, ten to fifteen small succulents.
Speaker 5: And I can't explain this to you, but she rearranges
Speaker 5: them like three times a day in a way that
Speaker 5: is so jarring where I'm like, what is going on here?
Speaker 5: Because in the morning there arranged in one way, I know,
Speaker 5: because one's a little pot of an elephant. It's facing
Speaker 5: let's say west. When I come back home three hours later,
Speaker 5: the elephants turned around. It's compatriots are crowded around him
Speaker 5: in a different way. She just rearranges these succulents like
Speaker 5: for no reason, three to four times a day, and
Speaker 5: it's so weird, And it's like only I would notice,
Speaker 5: you know, because I'm her next door neighbor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, chasing or avoiding the sun, I.
Speaker 5: Think she I think she add I think she was
Speaker 5: doing meth. It turned out afterward, yes, yeah, in.
Speaker 1: The past life, she just knows she can hear the
Speaker 1: plants screaming. She used to exactly like she's trying to
Speaker 1: make her happy.
Speaker 4: Wait, but it turns out she was on meth.
Speaker 8: Because I have a friend who I had a similar
Speaker 8: experience where I went to their house and everyone suspected
Speaker 8: that the people that lived in the house were all
Speaker 8: kind of secretly doing meth. And we got there and
Speaker 8: the whole front of the house was like decorated with
Speaker 8: sparkly shit, but not like it wasn't like, oh, they
Speaker 8: went and bought one bag of some decoration. It was
Speaker 8: like a bottle was hung here and a bottle cap
Speaker 8: was over there. It was like I walked in, I
Speaker 8: was like, they're all on so much myth. Like, yes,
Speaker 8: that's what happens is these little projects and these things
Speaker 8: become important that it's like this is going to look
Speaker 8: beautiful and it's like you're hanging Budweiser bottles from a
Speaker 8: tree exactly.
Speaker 5: Now, yeah, this is not like George's special project of
Speaker 5: framing the Screaming Tree. This is like, this is like
Speaker 5: I have a vision. I have a seven am, four am,
Speaker 5: twelve am vision, and it's succulent vision.
Speaker 7: It makes it makes myth seem like less of a
Speaker 7: problem in society when all it does is make you craft.
Speaker 1: You know, go.
Speaker 8: Craft power that you craft, because that's violence, Like it's
Speaker 8: you can't just keep doing it at these hours where
Speaker 8: everyone else in humanity is, if not sleeping, resting.
Speaker 5: Absolutely and I'm trying to get my rest in from
Speaker 5: the years that I was living next to This is
Speaker 5: easy top, No, it's amazing. So I hadn't seen a
Speaker 5: person in a while, Chris, and I had to. You know,
Speaker 5: I gave him basically what I just gave here. I
Speaker 5: gave the breakdown. I gave the past neighbor.
Speaker 1: I was in the car.
Speaker 7: You asked me to get out of the car. You
Speaker 7: motioned for me to get out so I can hear
Speaker 7: this story.
Speaker 5: Should I park down the block, I go keep her running?
Speaker 8: That sounds like a great especially if you both hadn't
Speaker 8: seen this was like deep in the beginning of car
Speaker 8: This was.
Speaker 1: Uh oh, it was just like a year in. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was mid mid core.
Speaker 5: Pre seeing people again.
Speaker 1: But yes, yeah, but yeah.
Speaker 7: I've been seeing people occasionally and I Karen and I
Speaker 7: were talking about this.
Speaker 4: Sorry, I have to stop you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, you are you not going to give the other
Speaker 8: side of what that was, what that experience was like
Speaker 8: with Anna.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, of course, I can't believe I've forgotten you.
Speaker 8: Well, I'm just saying it sounds like she was trying
Speaker 8: to tell you about somebody. Was Was she the one
Speaker 8: that seemed like she was on.
Speaker 7: Medt the storytelling of it. There was a lot more
Speaker 7: passion at the time because it had just happened she
Speaker 7: had just seen her rearranging them and the tweet that morning.
Speaker 7: It was an especially tweaky rearrangement. She was really yacked
Speaker 7: out on the on the rowdy powder and she'd smoked
Speaker 7: out of a light bulb, I think, you said. And
Speaker 7: then so she was laughing while telling it because it
Speaker 7: had just happened. So it's it's hard to retell those
Speaker 7: story in the moment at the time it was fresh.
Speaker 5: So I go alad and seeing another person, then I
Speaker 5: accost you and I tell you this kind of beautiful.
Speaker 7: I loved it. It was it was one of the
Speaker 7: better interactions. So it's like, finally I went to a party,
Speaker 7: I said, as you walked away.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what we were.
Speaker 7: And I kept saying, we're going to appreciate it so
Speaker 7: much when we're at parties. We're going to go to
Speaker 7: And I had a show last night. It was outdoors,
Speaker 7: but uh, and I was I was just right back
Speaker 7: to judging the audience for not laughing. I'm right back at.
Speaker 5: Square one big time. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I'm just writing to humanity.
Speaker 1: Brother, I know.
Speaker 8: None of us learn I have to learn shit. You will,
Speaker 8: just like you know, open up to Anna and her stories. Wait,
Speaker 8: so just to close it out, just to close the
Speaker 8: circuit on this, you don't have that neighbor anymore, I imagine. No.
Speaker 5: Oh, so my big, my kind of big thesis is
Speaker 5: that I'm moved. So, oh you moved? That was how
Speaker 5: I did move? Yeah, that was my point, got you?
Speaker 7: Yeah, sorry, so I won't be Do you not work
Speaker 7: down the street anymore?
Speaker 11: Then either, I'm I'm on a sabbatical sure for at
Speaker 11: least yes, relatorial ways, for religious reasons, right.
Speaker 5: This one's for religious reasons.
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what. Actually, if I may very quickly
Speaker 5: say this, I was bartending and I took It's the
Speaker 5: first time I've been bartending for over ten years, and
Speaker 5: it's the first time that I've gotten to take a
Speaker 5: year or I guess a year and a half away
Speaker 5: from it. And when I came back, I found myself
Speaker 5: so deeply hating this one regular, this guy. I just
Speaker 5: was looking at him and I was like, look at
Speaker 5: this fucking guy. I hate him so much. I hate
Speaker 5: his voice, I hate the smells he's looking at me.
Speaker 5: I hate when he's not looking at me. And then
Speaker 5: I thought, like, I don't want to care. I don't
Speaker 5: want to hate this guy, I don't care, you know,
Speaker 5: and that that is my pandemic lesson and maybe we'd
Speaker 5: become good friends with him in a grocery store.
Speaker 7: But when people are down at that bar, there's often
Speaker 7: on their worst behavior.
Speaker 5: They really are. I get Kyle. I used to that
Speaker 5: was my treat. But Kyle would come in and would
Speaker 5: observe and get to sit in the corner and really
Speaker 5: take in and be like, who Kyle hate in here? Yeah?
Speaker 5: What's Kyle?
Speaker 8: What's the most what's the vision that pops in your head?
Speaker 8: If we were to ask you of the horrible things
Speaker 8: you've seen in Anna's bar or not even doesn't have
Speaker 8: to be horrible, but just something memorable that stuck out
Speaker 8: to you.
Speaker 6: Well.
Speaker 12: I always really liked going to her bar. I don't drink,
Speaker 12: but I liked going there because she would always make
Speaker 12: me a huge soda water and say this is.
Speaker 6: On the house.
Speaker 12: So every time she does she would do that, I go,
Speaker 12: is this on the house?
Speaker 5: Style would settle up in the corner she has a
Speaker 5: special spot where others aren't allowed, and she would order
Speaker 5: and I'd go, oh, with did you want five lives?
Speaker 5: And she'd go yeah, and then can this one be
Speaker 5: on the house this time, and I'd.
Speaker 1: Go, and then you would slide it down the bar
Speaker 1: like yeah.
Speaker 5: Cool stuff, very cool style.
Speaker 12: So nothing like I I feel like I was because
Speaker 12: I would go kind of, I wouldn't go during the
Speaker 12: crazy time.
Speaker 6: I feel like I wouldn't.
Speaker 12: I wouldn't see all the bad, bad stuff going down.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she see the highlights.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about some of the bad stuff we haven't.
Speaker 8: What we're looking for is a bar story breaking.
Speaker 7: Wait again, we don't know the bar. It's it's somewhere
Speaker 7: in the Los Angeles.
Speaker 5: We don't know.
Speaker 1: A bullet.
Speaker 7: Someone came back to shoot and shot through the door
Speaker 7: and someone.
Speaker 1: Got hitting the leg with a bullet. It's that not true.
Speaker 5: That that actually that actually is true.
Speaker 1: And that your bar.
Speaker 7: Yes, I think about that pretty much every time I'm
Speaker 7: sitting in that exact stool where you can see the bullet.
Speaker 5: That happened during not to tell tales at a school,
Speaker 5: but Chris gercy Is wedding. Because I was at Chris
Speaker 5: Gercia's wedding, I took the shift off. Oh be there,
Speaker 5: and you missed it, and I missed it. For love,
Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 4: Your leg.
Speaker 7: I thought you were saying someone it was at the
Speaker 7: wedding party, someone had a gun. Like at the wedding
Speaker 7: they had exit, they had a gun salute. The bride
Speaker 7: and groom walked down a row of riflemen and then
Speaker 7: one of them got excited that night and.
Speaker 5: Then there was a charge the bride.
Speaker 1: There's the bride, Hey shot the garter off her leg.
Speaker 1: It's an old tradition.
Speaker 8: Yeah. I love those those bars though, in that neighborhood
Speaker 8: because they are a lot of them are old and dark,
Speaker 8: and you get the vibe of how long asses them.
Speaker 8: It's sitting in those seats, you know what I mean,
Speaker 8: just like leaning against that bar. And I really I
Speaker 8: missed bar culture so much because I was just a
Speaker 8: very young, dynamic alcoholic.
Speaker 4: In my twenties to.
Speaker 8: The blackout degree it really did it solidly from twenty
Speaker 8: to twenty seven and lived in bars like that, like
Speaker 8: that's I lived for. I thought about it all day
Speaker 8: long and then I would get in there. I would
Speaker 8: do drink four beers real fast, start doing shots, start
Speaker 8: threatening like bouncers and shit like I just did it
Speaker 8: hard every night and I really loved it. Like I
Speaker 8: remember thinking I'll never stop doing this, like people are
Speaker 8: now starting to tell me they're worried about me, and
Speaker 8: I'll never stop doing this. And then it was like,
Speaker 8: of course I had to stop doing it, but like
Speaker 8: it's it's it can be so fun when when the
Speaker 8: elements come together correctly, Like I'll quickly tell you my
Speaker 8: favorite bar story in a good way. We were at
Speaker 8: we saw our front Greg Barn's band across the street
Speaker 8: at this at this club that was on Melrose right
Speaker 8: past Vine, and then Small's was up the street from
Speaker 8: that music club, so you would go to see bands play.
Speaker 8: So we all walk in and there's everyone's just being cool, right,
Speaker 8: everyone's like no one's looking at each other. There's a
Speaker 8: DJ but playing like very like chill music or whatever,
Speaker 8: and but we're already kind of drunk and like up
Speaker 8: from the club or whatever, so we're just kind of
Speaker 8: being a little bit loud and standing around and all
Speaker 8: the people that are there kind of like looking over
Speaker 8: their shoulder and then kind of like the next thing
Speaker 8: I remember is me and my friend the like the DJ,
Speaker 8: instead of playing something just instrumental, played like a Michael
Speaker 8: Jackson song, and me and my friend Danny just like
Speaker 8: looked at each other and just knew the second we
Speaker 8: made eye contact, and we're like, fucking, we're dancing and
Speaker 8: we don't care that no one else is dancing and
Speaker 8: no one in this bar is dancing at all. And
Speaker 8: we started a dance party that night at Smalls that
Speaker 8: at one point we were. My friend Danny and I
Speaker 8: who started it, were asked by the club owner to
Speaker 8: come back and start a dance party the next week
Speaker 8: on the same night, and we were like we and
Speaker 8: we kept calling ourselves paid professional dancers after that, but
Speaker 8: it was purely just the We were just drunk enough
Speaker 8: to not care, but not so drunk that we were
Speaker 8: fucking anything up. We were. It was the perfect pocket
Speaker 8: and then all these super cool, hipster, fake people of
Speaker 8: Los Angeles realized, we don't want to be cool and
Speaker 8: fake and hipster.
Speaker 5: We want to have fun.
Speaker 8: And everybody got on that fucking dance floor and it
Speaker 8: was the most magical night that like, for no reason
Speaker 8: on Thursday, and it never happened again.
Speaker 4: It was one of my favorite things about time.
Speaker 1: That is the best.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the best. That's how great?
Speaker 12: Good God, how come you didn't go back and take
Speaker 12: him on the offer?
Speaker 1: Well, why do.
Speaker 6: I speak like that I.
Speaker 4: Have issues the offer.
Speaker 5: I liked it.
Speaker 4: It was it was really formal.
Speaker 8: Because I think we thought we were gonna hear from him,
Speaker 8: like here's the plan if you show up at ten thirty,
Speaker 8: because he was it was really funny. He was just
Speaker 8: drunk as we were, because it turned into this weird
Speaker 8: like suddenly, this truly is a party. Like to me,
Speaker 8: that's what showing up at a bar is all about,
Speaker 8: is like maybe something great will happen, but it almost
Speaker 8: never does. But everyone I feel like if you could
Speaker 8: get everyone to be honest, they you could get them
Speaker 8: to admit like, yeah, I'm here, I hope to make.
Speaker 4: Out with someone.
Speaker 8: I hope I hope someone looks across the bar at
Speaker 8: me and starts asking me. You know, all these questions
Speaker 8: are like you want connection, but no, everyone's so cool
Speaker 8: in LA and so deep down actually lame that no
Speaker 8: one's ever going to be so cool that they're like,
Speaker 8: I'm a fucking dances It's Michael Jackson.
Speaker 4: We have no choice like that.
Speaker 8: But it was just this perfect amount of It wasn't
Speaker 8: too crowded that people felt insanely insecure. It was almost
Speaker 8: like forty people who all went fuck it. At the
Speaker 8: same time, it.
Speaker 7: Was ges you tore down those walls, and I don't
Speaker 7: want you to become an attict again.
Speaker 1: I don't want you to drink again.
Speaker 7: But the version of you that you just described, I
Speaker 7: would have liked to have met dude doing shots and
Speaker 7: threatening security and then starting a dance party.
Speaker 1: I'm like, Karen, I know that. Can you please just
Speaker 1: do that sometime?
Speaker 8: I know. Believe me, there's no one more broken hearted
Speaker 8: than its been sober me. They're not drinking me, I
Speaker 8: should say, because it was really fun until you know,
Speaker 8: the seizures set in.
Speaker 4: Everybody, Sure take care of yourselves.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well part of it.
Speaker 5: Dare I say we have a we have a little
Speaker 5: bit of a I drink a little, not mostly.
Speaker 6: I'm basically sober now at this point, so I mainly
Speaker 6: don't drink.
Speaker 5: But Kyl and I perfected a night out that is
Speaker 5: I mean, you're at a bar if you if that's
Speaker 5: a requirement, we can get you to a bar.
Speaker 6: Often.
Speaker 5: Is this night probably gonna cost you about I mean,
Speaker 5: you're looking at sixty dollars in the end, this is
Speaker 5: sixty dollars night. What are we talking about? We we
Speaker 5: can guarantee you the most fun no one has to
Speaker 5: drink night.
Speaker 1: I think, is it buying sixty dollars of balloons?
Speaker 5: That is really good?
Speaker 1: Just a guess. I like to guess.
Speaker 5: I really I really like that fifty nine dollars worth
Speaker 5: of balloons and then.
Speaker 4: And then one tip for the balloon man and then
Speaker 4: you want to tip?
Speaker 5: Of course we Is it okay that I tell them?
Speaker 12: Yeah, I'm trying to remember how like we decided to
Speaker 12: go do this.
Speaker 6: I think I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 5: You must know what I'm talking about, But how did
Speaker 5: we get there?
Speaker 12: I just wonder, like what I forget why we decided
Speaker 12: to go do that?
Speaker 4: Chris, what do you think it is? Sixty dollars?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you guys should Dodger Dodger's game.
Speaker 1: Now you buy some pizzas for everyone.
Speaker 5: I wish that's a really good idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Pizza's here gets.
Speaker 5: A pass out at the beginning of the night. You
Speaker 5: decide tonight we're just gonna no matter no matter which
Speaker 5: way you look at it, it's a sixty dollars night.
Speaker 5: So that could be the pizzas. That could be to
Speaker 5: round of drinks. By the way, one time in San Francisco.
Speaker 5: I walked into a friend of mine was DJing at
Speaker 5: this bar cool Alert next door to a pizza place,
Speaker 5: and I walked into the bar to say I had
Speaker 5: my friend with a full pizza. And I was like, God,
Speaker 5: someone's gonna say something so annoying. And I walk in
Speaker 5: the you know, dorm. Person doesn't say anything, but I
Speaker 5: see my friend there. I'm making my way to them.
Speaker 5: Almost no one said anything, and then some guy somburrow goes,
Speaker 5: cool pizza and I just cool pizza.
Speaker 1: Well, I didn't know you that.
Speaker 7: It is one of my It's why I have this restaurant.
Speaker 7: I don't like strangers commenting on my food.
Speaker 5: Strangers commenting on It's.
Speaker 1: Like, oh is it? What are you eating? Is that good?
Speaker 1: It's like, get the hell away from me.
Speaker 5: It's really funny because I like that. Do you like that?
Speaker 1: You do?
Speaker 5: I hate that. That's where we diverge.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I yeah, I don't. I did not want you
Speaker 1: part of that. This is just me time.
Speaker 4: I agree.
Speaker 5: I don't even I don't even want you to look
Speaker 5: at my food.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't look at me.
Speaker 5: Don't look at me, of course, don't even look at
Speaker 5: my utensils.
Speaker 12: My argument is that it's just sort of like a compliment,
Speaker 12: Like I always take it as, oh I made a
Speaker 12: good choice.
Speaker 7: Oh I guess if a waiter says still, I get
Speaker 7: such a rise out.
Speaker 1: It's a positive vibes.
Speaker 7: Baby hate when I'm like, I'm like, you know what,
Speaker 7: I'll just get the chicken whatever, and they're like, ooh,
Speaker 7: good joy.
Speaker 1: That's one of my personal favorites. I work here.
Speaker 7: I don't even know I've had everything.
Speaker 4: And are you saying you you do like it? You're
Speaker 4: saying it's a.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you just wrote the most perfect bit of
Speaker 8: all time. If it's if it's that is so funny
Speaker 8: and it's so true, like like you're like, yeah, that's right,
Speaker 8: that's right.
Speaker 4: It's a chicken parmesan. I chose it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Are you in the culinary industry? How would you
Speaker 1: know ahead of time? You just picked it because of
Speaker 1: the ingredients, just grew up.
Speaker 4: What taste are you French?
Speaker 7: And then and then did you save room for dessert?
Speaker 7: And it's like, no, I'm drinking vodka, you idiot, that's
Speaker 7: my sugar. And then I flipped the table. I make
Speaker 7: things terrible.
Speaker 4: That one time, and we still don't know what the
Speaker 4: sixty dollars night is.
Speaker 5: I'll absolutely tell you, but just really quick, what started
Speaker 5: my hatred of people looking into my food is I
Speaker 5: was a fisherman's wharf and huge mistake, and I was like,
Speaker 5: I just you know what, I don't know what it is,
Speaker 5: what's in the air. I feel like a lobster bisk
Speaker 5: and I get this lobster bisk and it is lime green.
Speaker 5: It is like it was like Nickelodeon, lime green in
Speaker 5: a bread bowl. I'm sitting outside what's at St Patrick's Day?
Speaker 5: It's not Saint Patrick's. I don't know they spiked this.
Speaker 5: I don't know what happened to the lobster. But she's honey,
Speaker 5: she's green. And all these people these doors are walking
Speaker 5: by and I'm seated like on the sidewalk. People keep
Speaker 5: looking in past like there's like a little railing area
Speaker 5: protecting me from the elements, and people are just just
Speaker 5: teetering over the railing try to get into my lobster bisk.
Speaker 5: I know it's an uncomfortable color. I understand. I'll be
Speaker 5: the first to admit it. It shouldn't be green. But
Speaker 5: people are basically dipping their noses into my misk breaking
Speaker 5: their backs to comment on it and be like what
Speaker 5: is that? And ever since then I have this aversion.
Speaker 5: I don't even want to eat outside. I don't want
Speaker 5: anybody to look at my food. I would rather be
Speaker 5: alone in the closet in the dark.
Speaker 7: Okay, it's all based on being traumatized. After getting very,
Speaker 7: very sick from eating green biss.
Speaker 4: I felt better than I had in years, really juvenating.
Speaker 4: It was a rejuvenating basil lobster biss.
Speaker 8: I think because of my San Francisco outside experience, like
Speaker 8: when especially in LA, I'm like, I will not eat outside.
Speaker 8: It's just La is like eating outside is like why
Speaker 8: don't we go to Jiffy Lube and eat in the
Speaker 8: waiting room where it smells like tires?
Speaker 5: Like absolutely same thing outside LA. Stop pretending La.
Speaker 8: Is in any way nice, especially on the east side
Speaker 8: to eat outside unless you're at that place that's like
Speaker 8: got a secret tree and no it's crew surrounded on
Speaker 8: all sides. But like other than that, no, fucking what
Speaker 8: are you talking about? I don't want to eat well.
Speaker 5: Someone parallel parks.
Speaker 7: Yeah, next, gotta put up planters or buy some parking
Speaker 7: spaces there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Down at the street. Here they're just throwing down tables. Yeah,
Speaker 7: anywhere FECs. It's and I'm supposed to enjoy my green
Speaker 7: bask No, do.
Speaker 5: My green biscuit in doors?
Speaker 1: Sorry?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it's it's Yeah, that sounds like the worst.
Speaker 5: Oh my god.
Speaker 4: Wait, and did you actually live in the city or
Speaker 4: did you just go up there?
Speaker 5: I did. I lived there for a bit, like I
Speaker 5: lived there after I moved there for college, and then
Speaker 5: I lived there until I was I want to say twenty.
Speaker 7: The night I met you, I drove you around that city.
Speaker 7: We had a show somewhere where the business I do
Speaker 7: believe wasn't there, speaking of ship on the floor, a
Speaker 7: dog or something that pooped on the stage.
Speaker 1: Do you remember this?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 7: And I was like I was getting laughs and I'm like,
Speaker 7: that's not even the punchline. They were just laughing that
Speaker 7: I was dancing around this mystery turd because that it
Speaker 7: was a theater, had a theater dog with a indigestion whatever.
Speaker 1: And then and then we drove to the next place.
Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, I.
Speaker 1: Mean little things that don't matter. Did I did I
Speaker 1: Did I remember to do my taxes this year?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 1: But do I vividly recall a turd on this stage.
Speaker 5: You're doing a show, you're having the set of a lifetime.
Speaker 5: You're gigging.
Speaker 1: The flood is pumping in your brain, making you remember.
Speaker 5: Yeah, your neck is thick with adrenaline. Ship next to
Speaker 5: you on the street, you remember that, Kyle, how long
Speaker 5: did you live in San Francisco?
Speaker 12: Well, I was born in San Francisco, so I was there.
Speaker 4: Are you a native?
Speaker 6: I'm a native? Yeah?
Speaker 4: What what hospital were you born in?
Speaker 13: Oh?
Speaker 6: I can't tell you.
Speaker 5: So you're lying.
Speaker 1: You're lying.
Speaker 4: You were born in Martinez?
Speaker 5: Was born in somewhere else? Sandra? And sorry?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 5: I yeah, yeah, so I was born there.
Speaker 12: My dad is a generation in San Franciscan, so I
Speaker 12: guess I'm second generation Sarranciscan. And then I just left
Speaker 12: for college, so I was there for a while.
Speaker 8: Okay, I was born at Saint Luke's. I just wanted
Speaker 8: you to say I was born at Saint Lukes so
Speaker 8: we could both scream.
Speaker 4: And Luke's.
Speaker 1: Ten years after me.
Speaker 7: Well, I was born and no one's asking, but ill.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 7: Monterey is a bay, Monterey Bay, and my parents called
Speaker 7: that the bay area when I was little, and I
Speaker 7: guess they were wrong.
Speaker 8: Because that well, for central kind of like for central California,
Speaker 8: it's the Bay. Yeah, it's just a different thing.
Speaker 7: But yeah, but I've been telling people when they refer
Speaker 7: to the Bay Area, they're usually talking San Francisco, and
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, I was born there, and then
Speaker 7: they're like, oh really, And then they asked me the
Speaker 7: hospital and I'm like, I was born in Carmel and
Speaker 7: They're like, why'd you lie to me?
Speaker 8: Then?
Speaker 1: Oh, stop trying to Yeah, there's more than one Bay.
Speaker 8: Do you guys want to talk about your new podcast, Yeah,
Speaker 8: let's do that.
Speaker 5: We definitely do. Can we also quickly? Can we tell
Speaker 5: you about the bar?
Speaker 6: Oh? We should tell you what we do for six years?
Speaker 5: Is that?
Speaker 7: Oh my god, this be the most frustrating episode their seat.
Speaker 8: Know your natural podcasters, because you're drawing it out so
Speaker 8: people to.
Speaker 4: Stay all the way through for the sixty dollars story.
Speaker 7: After this message is we'll tell you what that's sixty
Speaker 7: dollars was spent on.
Speaker 1: Here's some music.
Speaker 5: We'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back. Sixty bucks.
Speaker 5: Okay, sixty bucks.
Speaker 7: It wasn't balloons, It was not pizza.
Speaker 5: Pizza, cool pizza. Okay, it's cool pizza. Okay, I don't
Speaker 5: know what the origin of this is.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it's that, you know, we both want
Speaker 12: to have a night life, but I don't drink and
Speaker 12: it doesn't drink a lot. Yeah, so we want to
Speaker 12: be out there, but and we want to rock. We
Speaker 12: also have a rock side, so I mean that's just
Speaker 12: a very specific kind of thing that we're trying to get.
Speaker 12: So we started going to the Viper Room. I mean,
Speaker 12: that's why it's really expensive, because there's usually like twenty
Speaker 12: dollars cover.
Speaker 5: You're looking at a twenty dollars cover. You're looking at
Speaker 5: you want to park your car somewhere on the strip,
Speaker 5: that's at least twenty dollars. At least soda water that's
Speaker 5: twenty dollars right there. So we went to the Viper Room.
Speaker 5: I don't remember how the first time, but we immediately
Speaker 5: fell in love and we go we got to come
Speaker 5: back here every Friday night.
Speaker 12: Well, the crazy thing is we saw this vand that
Speaker 12: Oh this is crazy, but we saw this band. I
Speaker 12: don't I can't tell you what this vand who they were,
Speaker 12: but it's like they didn't obey the rules of the
Speaker 12: stage and performing on the tables before me, like where
Speaker 12: we were standing, and I was terrified.
Speaker 5: On a video of Kyle's screaming because they just wouldn't obey.
Speaker 5: They just took the kind of the edges of the
Speaker 5: stage is a soft suggestion for when one might want
Speaker 5: to perform. They go, I see the rules that I'm
Speaker 5: going to break them. I'm going to walk on the
Speaker 5: They walked on the bar so many times that the
Speaker 5: bartenders stopped paying attention. It's just started serving drinks over
Speaker 5: the people walking, and the.
Speaker 1: Whole time Kyle's yelling, you're not obeying the rules of
Speaker 1: this stone.
Speaker 5: Kyle was like, why are they so close to me?
Speaker 5: Why I thought this was safe? Show business is a discipline.
Speaker 4: What are you doing?
Speaker 5: It's so funny. Not allowed every it's not allowed, I
Speaker 5: mean every aspect of the Viper Room from the time
Speaker 5: you're near the building. Because there's a door woman who.
Speaker 13: Whose voice is kind of like this, and she's like
Speaker 13: like she's everyone's in a costume and the costume is
Speaker 13: rock and roll, and you're just like, this place was
Speaker 13: absolutely developed by Johnny Depp.
Speaker 5: I love this.
Speaker 14: This woman is like, let me see your idea and
Speaker 14: then let me see your bag to see what kind
Speaker 14: of bullshit you have, and you're like, I just what
Speaker 14: kind of bullshit I have in my bag? And then
Speaker 14: she's like, I get in and the bar's open, so
Speaker 14: you can go get a jack and coke or a
Speaker 14: jack and diet coke.
Speaker 5: And that's it.
Speaker 1: That was her rock and roll door joke.
Speaker 5: That's it. That's our joke basically. So we have a
Speaker 5: little system which is let you tell them.
Speaker 8: Oh, wait, how many times have you guys gone before
Speaker 8: the pandemic?
Speaker 12: That was kind of the biggest bummer because it was
Speaker 12: kind of our night life. So the pandemic kid, it
Speaker 12: was like, okay, we can't.
Speaker 5: Go to the er.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I wish people would see what I look like
Speaker 12: because I do stick out like a sore thumb there.
Speaker 7: It is very funny to me, if you guys are
Speaker 7: being serious kind of thought you were a kidding.
Speaker 1: Did you regularly go.
Speaker 7: To the wannabe rock and roll It's the most hilarious
Speaker 7: place ever.
Speaker 8: They must think you're like, you're like Rolling Stone journalists
Speaker 8: or like research.
Speaker 5: Or I go to Cambridge and I've just heard exactly.
Speaker 8: You're the bit, you're the fire inspectors. You're just there
Speaker 8: to get ahead count and actually.
Speaker 5: Osha, this is a compliant Yeah, so what are we do?
Speaker 5: What we do.
Speaker 12: Beforehand was we're like, it's not fun if we don't
Speaker 12: know the e bands, like and sometimes there's not a
Speaker 12: lot of people there, so we're like, what if we
Speaker 12: see the lineup. We're saying, like, we will go see
Speaker 12: this group called God Saves Me and I just made
Speaker 12: that name up, just a very probable one is there.
Speaker 12: And then if we so, well, before we go there,
Speaker 12: we'll just listen to the whole album, their whole album
Speaker 12: and really like understand like the kind of music, try
Speaker 12: to memorize some of the lines. So then when we
Speaker 12: get there and you sometimes the audiences are very small,
Speaker 12: we just like being able to sing the song side yeah.
Speaker 4: And they're like, so you're impersonating fans.
Speaker 15: Yeah, wow, fans fans because it's almost like we've studied
Speaker 15: so diligently the lyrics of a song that it doesn't
Speaker 15: even really at a certain point the lines blur and
Speaker 15: it doesn't even matter if you really like them by
Speaker 15: the time the song.
Speaker 5: By the time Wolfies come, you go, this is this
Speaker 5: is wolf were study this, then you really are a
Speaker 5: fan at that point. Yeah, really, it really is amazing.
Speaker 7: That is the most That is the most innocent and heartwarming.
Speaker 7: I still don't all the way believe you're doing it.
Speaker 5: We were constantly doing this.
Speaker 1: It is a very wholesome thing to do.
Speaker 16: Also to do it, to do it soberly is so
Speaker 16: funny because it's not like you're just like fucking around
Speaker 16: and like whatever, we're just we just need to be
Speaker 16: a bar.
Speaker 8: It's like you you're going and going. We are here
Speaker 8: to participate in the Viper Room experience whatever that might
Speaker 8: be tonight.
Speaker 5: Well that's why when you said that you earnestly got
Speaker 5: people to start dancing and to earnestly and you know,
Speaker 5: nobody was really worried about looking cool. I mean it's
Speaker 5: not exactly the same, because what I will say with
Speaker 5: confidence about everybody at the Viper Room is that they're
Speaker 5: just entirely worried about looking cool. That's all they're really
Speaker 5: there to do. But if you're like, yeah, I love
Speaker 5: it you're singing, then you know, usually we'll get some
Speaker 5: looks and then people will be like, yeah, actually, you
Speaker 5: know what to think of it? I love singing too.
Speaker 7: You know what, guys, I'm going to take off my
Speaker 7: studded jacket and start acting like myself.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what, this is all a mask.
Speaker 8: I'm here to be myself tonight, like these two young reporters.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and they all put on a cardigan sweater, so
Speaker 7: I really am journalists.
Speaker 1: Print it is not dead.
Speaker 15: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 7: And and the band wouldn't assume unless you're really laughing
Speaker 7: while doing it.
Speaker 1: They're they're just thinking, oh, we these that knew the songs, well,
Speaker 1: there was a.
Speaker 5: Fair band where they didn't have they the last time
Speaker 5: they put out in an EP was I mean it
Speaker 5: was it's with a heavy heart that I announced that
Speaker 5: they haven't put out an EP since twenty thirteen. So
Speaker 5: they were playing some songs and we were like requesting songs.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 5: We were like like vector of your Heart or whatever,
Speaker 5: and they were like, vector of your Heart. We haven't it.
Speaker 7: Okay, but they believed they were. They did not think
Speaker 7: you were making fun of them. No, they're just like,
Speaker 7: all right, guys, try and keep.
Speaker 1: Up, yes, heart.
Speaker 7: I hope Vector of your Heart is about getting a
Speaker 7: JPEG photo and factorizing it to us an illustrator.
Speaker 1: It's like a graphic design song.
Speaker 6: Shit.
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 8: I mean, first of all, you already made the mistake
Speaker 8: of inviting me, so I'm going to be going some time.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, here's what I used in bars in Missoula
Speaker 7: and with one specific friend, my buddy Kevin. We would
Speaker 7: go in and fake fight each other, like throw each
Speaker 7: other over schools. I would actually be punching them, but
Speaker 7: not like not hard. But you can make everyone watching.
Speaker 7: If you hit someone in the face and then you
Speaker 7: throw them over something and everything spills, everyone could freak out.
Speaker 1: But we were laughing the whole It was so hard
Speaker 1: not to laugh. So we're laughing and fighting, but the
Speaker 1: fighting looked real enough that they ignored the lat They
Speaker 1: just thought we were crazy, and then we'd leave. We
Speaker 1: wouldn't break anything, but that's kind of fun because then
Speaker 1: everyone else would start fighting. I don't know, I didn't
Speaker 1: stick around that long. I don't know.
Speaker 7: Okay, it always happens in a movie if you're fighting
Speaker 7: everyone else. Yeah, all of a sudden, Terry Bradshaw shoves
Speaker 7: some guy's head into a jukebox and then the bartender's
Speaker 7: like fuck it, and he brings.
Speaker 10: It bottle like you know, yeah, yeah, of course they
Speaker 10: have a gun behind the bar, there's a lady at
Speaker 10: the front door that just starts making out with someone
Speaker 10: and then she punches another lady.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, I don't know that that ever happened.
Speaker 1: We just confused because you got to get in and
Speaker 1: out when you do a fake fight.
Speaker 7: Yeah, sure, yeah that to be honest, that was also
Speaker 7: sober behavior. I think it's an innocent thing to soberly
Speaker 7: go into a bar and out do everyone with bar behavior, yes,
Speaker 7: and then then leave like uh huh they believed.
Speaker 8: Us absolutely, Yeah, I really it also kind of what
Speaker 8: you guys are doing. I know that you're telling that
Speaker 8: story because that idea starting a business where it's like
Speaker 8: we will send cool people around to your dumb thing
Speaker 8: and start fun to happen, because you can't rely on
Speaker 8: just you know, your average group of five people to
Speaker 8: be fun or have fun. Like I mean not to
Speaker 8: say there's plenty of fun people out there, but so
Speaker 8: many people feel oppressed by societies. You know, I judgmental
Speaker 8: eye looking at them, But like the idea that you'd
Speaker 8: be like, for five hundred dollars, I'm going to send
Speaker 8: four loud girls into your shitty bar at right around
Speaker 8: ten forty five and all of a sudden, you're going
Speaker 8: to go to next level bar party. Wow, you know
Speaker 8: what I mean, because that's really what it takes, right.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, we got to team up with you.
Speaker 1: I think you're bringing this.
Speaker 4: I've got ideas.
Speaker 6: Now.
Speaker 7: So the sixty dollars, okay, that's spent. Have we spent
Speaker 7: that yet? Is that spending it? On MP three's so
Speaker 7: you can memorize the lyrics? Were the sixty dollars?
Speaker 5: Yet we're supporting the artist on band camp that's like
Speaker 5: fifty ok there, okay, yeah, that's ok. No, twenty dollars cover,
Speaker 5: twenty dollars to park your far across the street, and
Speaker 5: then of.
Speaker 1: Course there's a cover parking soda soda.
Speaker 7: I assumed it was a free show and you were
Speaker 7: just paying to have the tables cleaned.
Speaker 5: Because you are the joke of the town. If you
Speaker 5: think you're going you are a jester, Chris. If you
Speaker 5: think you're going up the viper room and they're letting
Speaker 5: you in for free, I am yeah, planet, no way,
Speaker 5: it's no way.
Speaker 1: I mean, bands, for God's sake, what a value?
Speaker 5: It is, such a value. I mean they could charge me,
Speaker 5: I would I would pay thirty because of the amount
Speaker 5: of fun you're having. I mean, this is basically this
Speaker 5: is my disney Land, since it's a bargain at twice
Speaker 5: the price. Even in the beginning of the pandemic, when
Speaker 5: people were trying to have fun with Instagram Live, I
Speaker 5: don't know if you remember that brief period. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: we put together a play about Oh my god, we
Speaker 5: put together a play because Instagram you could split your
Speaker 5: screen into two when you go live with two people.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, so we really we go let's let's uh
Speaker 5: utilize this, utilize this format. We're going to be on
Speaker 5: bunk beds and we're on bunk band beds on a
Speaker 5: tour bus that's playing, that's going to the viper room.
Speaker 5: That was our play.
Speaker 12: I think like five people watch are really hard on it.
Speaker 5: Really hard.
Speaker 1: How much money went into.
Speaker 5: This lots of Yeah, I mean we were doing things
Speaker 5: that were like, we're passing down a pill bottle from
Speaker 5: the top back up, can you actually take this pill
Speaker 5: bottle back?
Speaker 1: We got to have a pill bottle? Yeah, I like it.

Speaker 5: band that strives to be at the viper room. That's hilarious.
Speaker 5: We gotta we really got to bring that back now
Speaker 5: that we've saved saved our stages. Yeah, that's right. We
Speaker 5: want to do a Viper Room musical. I don't know
Speaker 5: if that's okay, if that's copyright. Well, you know what's
Speaker 5: nice is we just discovered horror fan bases and it's
Speaker 5: it's modest, and it's it's you know, shy in numbers,
Speaker 5: but it's it's just quiet.
Speaker 8: Wait.
Speaker 1: Sorry, you discovered that the fan base is.
Speaker 5: Our fan base? Oh yeah, yeah, it's shy dads. I
Speaker 5: don't know what it is. That's really weird. It's like
Speaker 5: a dad who. I don't know if they're devoce.
Speaker 12: I don't want to say weird because no.
Speaker 5: No, you know, we welcome you with you. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 5: keep keep them coming. But but they are shy dads.
Speaker 5: They're shy. We Kyle had a theory that maybe they're
Speaker 5: like living vicariously through us.
Speaker 4: Yeah, do you go investigate things?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, yeah there.
Speaker 7: I just went to Denver and the our fans, Karen
Speaker 7: are so they're the sweetest people. It's such it's such
Speaker 7: a I'm so relaxed because they're just nice people and
Speaker 7: there's no drunk bros.
Speaker 1: There's no, bros.
Speaker 5: You it like the amount of people there's no there's
Speaker 5: no one more like people that I know from uh,
Speaker 5: not not comedy at all, like pre comedy maybe like
Speaker 5: the most from you know, other like cities where I've
Speaker 5: lived or whatever. People that are not tied to comedy
Speaker 5: at all always are like Karen Kilgarriff.
Speaker 8: Karen, Yeah, yeah, and they pronounce it correctly, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, very much kill Griffill.
Speaker 4: Oh that's what they just call you and say that
Speaker 4: and then hang up the phone.

Speaker 7: I mean it is interesting. I want to know why
Speaker 7: shy dads go to yours.
Speaker 5: I love that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because Karen, it's nice.
Speaker 4: I'd say ours are bold moms.
Speaker 8: I mean it's always people that like they're because of
Speaker 8: podcasting makes people think, you know, it's like we know
Speaker 8: each other because I hang out with you, so there's
Speaker 8: it's like familiar, and there's it's always people that, uh
Speaker 8: like when I meet them, Like the first time we
Speaker 8: went to do a meet and greet, which I'd never
Speaker 8: done anything like that before, and I was like the
Speaker 8: second we were walking toward it, and then I went,
Speaker 8: oh my god, what are we doing.
Speaker 4: This is gonna be so creepy and this is gonna
Speaker 4: be so scary.
Speaker 8: And the second it started, it was just person after
Speaker 8: person that was like it feels like I know this person. Yeah,
Speaker 8: and they're truly like know how to talk to you
Speaker 8: or just normal. They don't have an odd energy. Like
Speaker 8: every one of them is like, where are you friends
Speaker 8: with my sister? Did I go to camp with you?
Speaker 8: Like I don't I know you?
Speaker 7: That's a better way. I just saying they're nice and
Speaker 7: bring me comfort. But it's exactly that they fucking know me. Yeah,
Speaker 7: in a weird way. And it's like, oh, I do
Speaker 7: have friends. And then I leave town and I never
Speaker 7: say that. Every city is like a twelve breakups with friends.
Speaker 8: Well, guys, well, do you have anything else you need
Speaker 8: to cover? I mean I feel like we've we haven't
Speaker 8: even there was no plan there was, you know, did
Speaker 8: you need to promote anything in partic No?
Speaker 5: Really, Well, we have a podcast at least you say
Speaker 5: the name of it, okay, and it's called Truth Hounds.
Speaker 6: Nice we say it together.
Speaker 12: And it's just an opportunity for us to go out
Speaker 12: in the real world and try to investigate things.
Speaker 5: Really, the genesis of the investigation is is I would
Speaker 5: even say experiences like going to the viper room where
Speaker 5: we're like what is that? And how do we recreate that?
Speaker 5: And other aspects of our lives. So it's like an
Speaker 5: excuse for us to get to do fun stuff.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like it's sociology but kind of like X
Speaker 7: files because you're investigating and searching for the truth because
Speaker 7: it's out there.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's an opportunity for us to do fun stuff
Speaker 12: that's not really great on a podcast.
Speaker 5: Yeah, totally, absolutely. It's very visually dependent.
Speaker 4: So season two, I take fun on it.
Speaker 5: Oh you were and you were our first celebrity. You
Speaker 5: are only celebrity so probably the only one. Well that
Speaker 5: will go on. You were great.
Speaker 4: It was really funny.
Speaker 8: Well, and it hadn't come out yet or there was
Speaker 8: no way to reference it, so they gave me.
Speaker 4: It was really like they're like, so where can it
Speaker 4: be doing this?
Speaker 5: It was like I just got the guidelines.
Speaker 8: Of what your podcast reality was and then you're just
Speaker 8: like and just play along however you and so choose.
Speaker 4: It was really funny.
Speaker 5: We interviewed you if you remember about what it's like
Speaker 5: to be mean. That's right.
Speaker 8: And there was a lot of like apologizing beforehand and like, look, no,
Speaker 8: it's not like people were telling us you're mean. I'm like, no,
Speaker 8: you can skip all that. I absolutely, very proudly identify
Speaker 8: as a mean person.
Speaker 5: Yes, well you were the most insightful and then we
Speaker 5: actually the conclusion we came to in our investigation is
Speaker 5: that you're actually not mean. So I don't, right, that's
Speaker 5: the big secret. That's the big secret.
Speaker 8: Paral emotional, softy, but a little spike key on the outside.
