It's been a while 0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.600 since we've done an episode. Has it been almost a month? 0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:20.200 I would say, yeah, I've been on the road like crazy, 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:24.600 like insane. And when I say like been on the road, 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:27.880 I mean, dude, I haven't had a day off this 0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.800 This last week, I had a couple of days off 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:31.640 for the first time in a long time, and I 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:34.600 was literally stretched so thin. I was literally at my 0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.679 breaking point. I was ready for a nervous breakdown. It 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:40.720 was right there, it was looming, and my blood pressure 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.440 was crazy high. I was supposed to go to Amsterdam 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:47.720 on Wednesday because, um, I'm the c CEO of Red 0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:51.480 Light Holland. It's a truffle mushroom truffle company out of 0:01:51.480 --> 0:01:57.520 Canada via Amsterdam, and it's a micro dosing mushroom company, 0:01:57.520 --> 0:02:01.960 and I, um, I've never done mushrooms or micro dosing. 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:05.240 So as per the company, they kept asking me, can 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:06.560 you talk about it? Can you talk about I said, 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:10.160 I can't talk about something I've never done. So I 0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:12.440 was going to go to Amsterdam on Wednesday to do 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.960 mushrooms with a guide done the right way, you know, 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:18.520 just not like some random guy on the street and 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.480 hear some mushrooms. Then I trip out and fall into 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:24.560 the canals and in in the red light district. So 0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:27.119 so I was supposed to go with Todd Shapiro, the guy, 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:30.000 one of the guys who created the company out of Toronto, 0:02:30.520 --> 0:02:32.040 and he was gonna go a couple of days ahead 0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:35.320 of me, and and you have to do a COVID 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.560 test when you leave the country. So he took his 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:39.760 COVID test and turns out he tested positive for COVID, 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:42.560 and then his kids tested positive. Could It was like, damn, 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:48.080 this sucks. So in a very odd way, I I 0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:50.079 I was relieved that I didn't have to go. It 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:51.760 wasn't that I didn't want to go to Amsterdam. I 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:53.240 just didn't want to go at that moment because I 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:59.080 was just so burnt out, was exhausted mentally and physically, 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:01.760 but more mentally, which is worse. But how do you feel, 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.800 How do you feel today today? I feel great, you 0:03:03.800 --> 0:03:05.720 know what I mean? Like I had a few days off, 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:07.600 I took my daughter trick or treating. I got to 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.760 see my son last week. Um, we've had some sex 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:17.760 with each other. Um and um it's all been great now. 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:20.040 So as you can see, I'm at a little more chill. 0:03:20.760 --> 0:03:22.320 I'm not even smoking a cigla right now because I 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:25.400 don't actually feel like one. Oh wow, that might be 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:28.360 a first on this show. I don't think that's ever happened. 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.240 It might change give him five minutes a little later. 0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:32.480 I don't know. I don't feel like right now a 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:36.320 little I don't feel like wow. Okay, that's good. I'm 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:40.440 glad you got some rest. Yeah, it was necessary rest, assary, 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:46.760 rusty invest in rest. So, um, Ali's here with us 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:51.480 again today. It's me Ali and Courtney. And uh, it's 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:53.520 just nice to have you do two ladies with me. 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:58.600 You know, each of you bring a different element to this. Yeah, 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:02.760 it's nice. It's a little a little balance in the room. 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:04.240 I love it. Yeah, there's been a lot of a 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:07.680 lot of ladies on the show recently. Yeah. Yeah, you 0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:09.880 know It's funny is the ladies have been really bringing 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:11.880 it on the show. That's why a lot of the 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:15.880 dudes kind of like who I'm like, oh boy, they 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:19.680 needed a vacation too, They needed a minute. But it 0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.560 seems like it seems like whatever women are doing nowadays, 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.880 they're excelling in. Even in the m m A world. Um, 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:28.120 there's no easy fights for women out there. Like when 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:29.960 a woman fights in an m m A fight, it's 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.280 real deal. And when two dudes get in there, they 0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:34.040 might take the night off and go a little slow 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.559 and easy on each other, like lame, you know. So 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:41.400 you know, women have definitely stepped up everything. And it's 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.279 not that they stepped it up. They did it in 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:45.359 a way where they made it like, look, if you 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.200 guys aren't going to do this, right, we are. Yeah. 0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:51.400 So I really appreciate that. I think women are prepared. 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:55.760 Like that's what I feel like usually, Like that's my observation. 0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:58.239 It's not a better or worse thing. I just feel 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:02.240 like more across the ward, women are like, well, if 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.279 nothing else, I'm going to be prepared, you know. Yeah. 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.320 I mean they sat on the sidelines for so long. 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:09.440 They watched and they took notes and they were like, 0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.000 well I don't want to know exactly what I don't 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:13.600 want to do. So they don't come in half acid. 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:17.040 They come in full bore, which which is I mean, 0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:21.840 it's the same for any marginalized group of human beings, um, 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:26.919 whether they be females, non whites, gay, straight, trans whatever. 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:29.080 If you've been marginalized in some form or another, you're 0:05:29.080 --> 0:05:31.240 gonna when you get your chance, you're gonna take it 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:35.279 a little bit more seriously. Right, No, I agree, look 0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.440 at me, full of full of insights to I know, 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:42.679 full of these like feminine power. Insights had some feminine 0:05:42.680 --> 0:05:47.200 power on me this morning. So speaking of I wanted 0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:50.680 to ask, is it are you fully wedding planned out? 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.680 Or is it is there still more planning? We did 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.359 our tasting a couple of weeks ago. We're already in 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:01.080 production for the invites and that's a pretty cool. We 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:05.480 just got to send them out. And yeah, just all 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:07.159 new to me, like, you know, because obviously I've been 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:10.159 married once before, but five hundred bucks have cost me. 0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:14.599 That thing was Elvis impersonator, a little whitechapel. Oh that's right, 0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:19.480 I forgot and out, buddy. Yeah, yeah, that lasted a 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:24.039 long time. You know. They say you get what you 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:28.719 pay for, right, So you got what ye short wedding, 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:33.840 short marriage? Yeah, I guess uncertain, Yeah, I mean, there 0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:35.840 are some people it's worked out for just you know, 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:38.240 when you're doing it for the wrong reasons at the 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:40.480 wrong time, it's never a good deal. Right. Were you 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:44.080 very drunk? Can I ask? No? No, My daughter's mother 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:45.800 was pregnant. I was like, I should probably be a 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.080 gentleman to marry her. I don't know. I figured, you know, 0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:49.760 I figured Indian people get married all the time and 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.480 they don't really know each other and they make it work. 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.040 And I'm Indian. Let's trying to make this work. And 0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:58.160 I wasn't gonna work. But you know whatever, I got 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.320 a great kid out of it. Yeah, that was the 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:05.240 whole purpose of it, that really was. So you know, 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.640 this would be the first. So I considered this my 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:12.880 first marriage, this one right here, this lady she had 0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:19.720 raised two daughters by herself, no help and uh and 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:23.680 still a strong woman like no, And there was no 0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:25.880 like I'm longing to do this. It was just like 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:27.840 one of those things. I was like, you never, oh, 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.120 that would be fun, you'd be I think you're the 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.680 right one. Yeah, even though you pushed me away in 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.800 the beginning. Yeah that was at the beginning. I wasn't ready, 0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:39.480 you know that already. I was not in a good 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.680 mental space at all. Yeah. I was going through a 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.640 lot at the time. Yeah. Yeah, Eddie had just transitioned 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:53.280 into a and so we were dealing with that. Yeah, 0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.840 it's traumatic for everyone. He used to tuck his art 0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:03.040 vark in and just his mushroom cap was didn't have 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:07.960 a mushroom CAP's got a turtleneck. It's got an ant eater. 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:14.040 These are all bumper stickers on these cars. On his motorcycle. 0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:23.320 My other penis is a hard heat I love it. Yeah, 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:28.080 he's got a helmet for it whenever, even his motorcycle, 0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:34.079 even his motorcycle helmet has stuff over the front. You 0:08:34.120 --> 0:08:39.400 should get a helmet like that, Eddie, the uncircumcised motorcycle helmet. 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:42.840 And then you have to respond when someone's like, heyduk, 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:49.319 you have to pull it down to see and his 0:08:49.440 --> 0:09:01.680 license plates is YAE was there? You got dick face perfect. 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:06.880 So we got some viewer emails. We have several, really 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:09.080 had like three. You remember we thought we were going 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:11.120 to be clever and we're gonna do a viewer feedback. 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:20.600 One we had no viewers. Hi, this is Canal. I 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:25.560 have a question for Russell um As an Indian comedian. 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:31.199 I imagine you had to do some like weird Indian 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:36.520 brown events coming up. So I've wondered, have you ever 0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:41.360 been heckled by an Indian uncle or auntie? Uh? Or 0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:48.120 if not, what's the weirdest thing that. Yes, I'm Indian, 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.800 I'm a comedian, but I'm not an Indian comedian. Um, 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.360 let's just straighten that out right away. I was always 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:55.520 just a comedian. In fact, that I'm Indian was something 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:58.959 I couldn't do. I couldn't avoid. Um. But yeah, I 0:09:59.000 --> 0:10:01.040 did have to do so I didn't have to. I 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:04.000 did do some Indian functions, and yeah I did get 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.840 heckled by some uncles and aunties, but they didn't like 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:08.480 it because I shut them down like I was in 0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:11.480 a comedy club. I'm not the Indian boy that's going 0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:15.600 to be like, oh, auntie, uncle, thank you. No, I'm like, 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:18.600 I fuck you man. I was always that guy. I 0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:21.240 was not going to be fucking like like some dorky 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:24.160 as didn't get at a here shut up, uncle, who 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.680 have another shiv us? Or Johnny Walker black you fuck 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:28.160 you know what I mean? I would just let him 0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.920 have it. And then I remember doing one Indian culture show, 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:33.600 and I got that happened, and then some girl came 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.679 back and tried to get all up in my face, 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:37.440 and I was like, get the funk out of here, 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.360 Like there's parents and uncles and aunties out there going 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.600 I don't give a ship their problem. Where was that 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:46.760 in Canada? Something all up in my girl? Like, I 0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:49.319 was like, get out of here. Comedy show now it 0:10:49.400 --> 0:10:51.440 was like an Indian culture show, and I'm like, that's 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.960 not my problem, lady. Yeah, we need to expand our 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.320 our our horizons. Here is what I was trying to do. 0:10:57.400 --> 0:11:00.760 I was always about taking us outside the bar or 0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:04.880 the blubba as the Indians would say, and uh and 0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.040 and and let us expand. And now look where we're at. 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.680 I'm not the only one. And there's plenty of them 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:14.160 doing really well, so you know, but they weren't there 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:15.800 when I started. I was that guy. I was the 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.640 first guy. I again, when I started, I wasn't thinking 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:20.800 about how I'm going to do this for my people. 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:26.440 I didn't have any delusions of grandeur. Yeah, and I 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:28.920 also feel like that's basically if you did try to 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.040 piece them, that's the kind of the thing of like 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.640 trying to make your parents happy with your comedy set, 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:37.760 which is probably not. That's the worst work. Oh did 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:40.920 my dad really likes my set? Wow? Well that sucks. Yeah. 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:45.560 The more of my parents complained about I I'm doing something. However, 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:47.679 my dad was really smart, so when he would give me, 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.600 he'd give me feedback. Good walk in front of cameras 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.480 if you can't call, yeah, PAULI uh what when do 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:55.840 you think your alarm is going to go out on 0:11:55.840 --> 0:12:04.040 your phone? Yeah? So my dad, But my dad. My 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:07.520 dad was really intelligent and spoke like his English was 0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.600 his vocabulary was amazing and not to be messed with. 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:12.600 But then he would try and tell me to like 0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:16.040 I need to expand my repertoire. He would tell me 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:19.240 all the time and talk about different things and can't 0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:21.559 just do this? And then I was like, oh boy. 0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.480 And then he would tell me here's reader's digest. Go reader. 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.400 I'm like, I'm not going to learn from reader's digest. 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:28.400 I don't want to. But I did take it to 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:30.760 a certain degree and I started paying attention more when 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:33.400 I was out just trying to figure out, you know, 0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:36.240 And that's where we're at now. It's only been thirty 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:40.160 two years. We're good. I think you're onto something. That's 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.080 what I think. All right, there's there's a lot of eats. 0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:52.600 Let's get to the next one. Hi resful. I was wondering, 0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:59.920 you know, since COVID pretty much all live performances stop 0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:04.960 for a really long time, including stand up. If stand 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:09.920 up I'd never come back, what would you have shift 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:15.240 to besides podcasting? Of course? Would you have gone to 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:19.920 get uh educated in a different way, a completely different career. 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:26.120 I'm curious educated. See that's the problem is people think 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:29.800 you need to somebody else to teach you something. Would 0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.920 you go and get educated? I never got fucking educated 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:33.720 the first time? Do you know what I mean? It 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.320 was I learned. I learned through life. And if you're 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:38.160 a hustler and you know how to live through life, 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.400 that's I mean. I would have figured it out eventually, 0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.319 you know, I had to adapt because of COVID. Anyway, 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:48.120 you know, you make these these little uh concessions in 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:51.239 your life. And I would have probably gotten more into deejaying, 0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:54.000 and probably I was ready to enter the World Jiu 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:56.560 Jitsu Championships. I would have I would have trained my 0:13:56.559 --> 0:13:58.120 ass off because I would have nothing else to do. 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:00.200 I would have. I would have entered the World Jiu 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.840 Jitsu Championships, and I would have continued down that path. 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:04.679 I think too. I'm sure there's no money in it, 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:07.760 but there's a lot of personal gratification that I would 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:11.319 have seen from that. But you know, fifty one years old, 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:13.560 what am I going to do? I would have figured 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:18.320 it out, flipped something into something. Yeah, I always did 0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:20.680 since I was a little kid, So it's not like 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.040 this would be new to me. Did you ever think 0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:25.720 that it wasn't going to come back that. I never 0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:27.280 thought it was going to come back. I just thought 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:29.840 it wasn't gonna come back fully, and I thought it 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:31.360 was gonna be a little weird, and it was a 0:14:31.400 --> 0:14:34.160 little weird at first. But you know, as we you know, 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.080 as we meander our way through this new world we're 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.800 living in, we're starting to figure it out and it's 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:42.240 coming back just fine. And you have a tour coming 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:44.840 up now, Oh, yes, I do have a tour. Thanks 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:48.960 for bringing that up. Courting at your Age World tour. 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:54.680 So here's what happened before the pandemic. I had come 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.520 up with the title for my tour and it was 0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:59.560 going to be called Brown's Plaitation, and we had artwork 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:03.640 made up. It was like artwork like black sploitation films, 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:05.400 but with like a lot of Indian themes in it 0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:09.680 and stuff, and uh it was really dope looking. But 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:13.000 the act had nothing to do with Brown e seplotation. Um. 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:17.440 Culturally canceled has nothing to do with being culturally canceled. Um. 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:22.160 You know, Um Deported had nothing to do with being deported. 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:25.520 You know, none of my tour titles have ever really 0:15:25.560 --> 0:15:28.880 had anything to do with the act. But this time 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.320 I came up with the act. And usually I came 0:15:31.400 --> 0:15:33.920 up with the name of the tour and the title 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:36.320 of everything right away. This time I came up with 0:15:36.360 --> 0:15:37.960 the act. First, I was struggling to come up with 0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:42.560 a title name and um. I was in Abu Dhabi 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:45.680 in September and I was sitting on my balcony with 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.200 my buddy Clay Roberts, who did the podcast, and we 0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:49.960 were brainstorming. I was like, well, I need a better 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:51.480 name of this too, because it doesn't make sense it's 0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.120 brown seplotation. And then I came up with Act Your 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:58.440 Age because my act is about, you know, uh, dealing 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.360 with being a fifty year old man and still not 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:03.840 mentally being a fifty one year old man, but at 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:05.960 times having to mentally be a fifty one year old 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:08.360 man and dealing with millennials and gen z s and 0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:10.720 all these sensitive cultures we're living in front of now 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.200 and how we got here and why we got here. 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:15.840 And so that's why I came up with him, act 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:18.960 your age, because how do you act your age? If 0:16:19.000 --> 0:16:23.240 I act my age, I could possibly get canceled. So 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:25.520 that's why the title makes sense on this tour. So 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:28.760 finally a tour title with an act that matches it. 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:30.560 And I don't want to toot my own horn, but 0:16:30.600 --> 0:16:32.800 I think it's a pretty damn good act. Eddie, what 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:36.920 do you think about this act? Eddie's excited for it, 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:39.840 Eddie likes and Eddie's seen a bunch of him now, 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:44.960 he's seen about five tours she'd ever seen see. Paulie's 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:46.600 sister came into me in Pittsburgh and said it was 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:49.640 the funniest she's seen every tour as well. Yeah, so 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:52.440 that it's getting great feedback from people who have seen 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:54.520 me a lot of times. And it's funny to see 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.880 fun faces on the internet, you know, when I post clips, 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:59.560 know like and I'm like, clearly, I said this is 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:03.120 a throw a. Yeah, clearly I said this is CrowdWork, right, 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:05.720 And they're like, we won't do something else but talk 0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.800 to the crowd. I'm not going to give away my act, 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:10.679 you prick, you know what I mean? Like, here's some 0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:14.959 free ship on your free platform. Go freely funk yourself 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:17.600 and people talk ship. Now. I just instantly removed them 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.560 as a follower. I'm like, I don't need your bullshit totally. 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:21.520 And also that I feel like that also goes for 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:25.040 our podcast listeners. Just a reminder that this show is 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:33.200 also free, so stop whining. Thank you free. I don't 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:36.359 like it, well, then don't fucking enjoy. You don't watch it? 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:40.680 Why are you here? Can you flick on the middle 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:43.880 heat for Alee? I'm good you were looking at it earlier. 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:46.439 I was there was a mosquito flying over your head, 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:49.640 and I was like, don't give bit on your neck. 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:55.720 That's why I thought land on his leg your life. 0:17:55.920 --> 0:18:01.560 You did on that. You got stung this morning? Listen 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:17.840 bigger than a mosquito with Eddie's motorcycle helmet.

Looks like King louis like 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:33.720 the king of a chessboard. K you see the Jungle Book. 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:39.320 Oh yes, o King Lily and everything. And then oh, 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:45.840 it's pretty funny. That's like the most graphic thing we've 0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.320 ever been sone, right, so you just see when he's 0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:55.320 dancing and they're doing King Lily. It's pretty funny the 0:18:55.320 --> 0:19:01.800 same I will. Yeah, well, there's a lot of penises 0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:04.960 and animated movies. I feel like the um in The 0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:07.960 Little Mermaid and the castle on the cover and then 0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:10.679 also like the old school cover and then they changed 0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:13.960 it because they realized and then there's the priest that's 0:19:14.080 --> 0:19:20.000 marrying them, and if you pay attention, it's like yeah, yeah, 0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:25.159 And I've never watched any of those Disney movies really watched. Ever, 0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:29.119 how is that possible? I was a grown man when 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:32.280 they were coming out.

Also, you know, to me, there's a difference 0:19:36.480 --> 0:19:40.600 between animation and cartoons, and I like cartoons. I don't 0:19:40.640 --> 0:19:43.800 like animation. It's like trying to be too real. Yeah, 0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:46.639 I want to see a fucking a chicken running into 0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:51.640 a wall, Like I want to see dumb, dumb, mindless thing. 0:19:51.720 --> 0:19:54.320 You want to see slapstick in your cartoons?

I get that. 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.199 I mean I think for me, like, as you know, 0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:01.399 I'm a music cold fans, so I feel like those 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:06.199 movies are very musical and the music annoys me, and 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:08.240 I like all that. He's like to be watching this ship. 0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:10.080 It's like, well, first of all, the baby's here, so 0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:12.200 we're watching it, right, you put it on and leave 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:14.320 it on. I'm like, what is this on my fucking TV? 0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:19.960 I like background. I like background, like music, Yeah do you? Yeah? 0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.000 I like to have the news on. My dad the 0:20:22.000 --> 0:20:24.720 news on, and I just need to know what's happening. Yeah, 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:28.200 it's depressing, but it's it's what's happening. I know. That's 0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:31.000 what my mom does, the exact same thing, and it's um. 0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:32.879 But that's why it's like every time she calls, she 0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:34.840 wants to talk about politics, and I'm like, I need 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:37.080 you to get another thought in your head, just like 0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:41.359 another one that is maybe not just this annoying because 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:45.000 it's all bad. Yeah. Um, And I'm not saying you 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:46.639 don't watch the news, but yeah, maybe just not like 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:49.520 the twenty four hour news right where it's in the 0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:51.160 back here. I kind of keep it on the local 0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:53.119 and one just so get the weather and traffic more 0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:55.679 than anything that's not bad, and also find out what 0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:57.560 area not to go to because it probably got shot. 0:20:57.560 --> 0:21:06.840 There was a shooting right oh America. If you're looking 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:10.520 for glasses or sunglasses or even blue light glasses, finding 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:12.399 the right frames for your face can be an ordeal. 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:14.600 Trust me, I know I have a big nose and 0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:17.199 if the bridge on the glasses is too high, it's 0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:19.120 it's a hole to do. Is your face a little 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:22.919 too wide or really narrow? Whatever shape your faces? Do 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.240 you have any idea what kind of glasses would work 0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:28.919 with that face and not make it look stupid. I 0:21:28.960 --> 0:21:30.760 don't have to sit there and try everything on in 0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:34.399 the store. Well, if you don't, don't worry. Warby Parker 0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:37.679 exists for that very reason.

My friends definitely chimed 0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:03.959 in with their opinions, and now I feel super confident 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:06.560 about the glasses I chose. I don't know his wear glasses, 0:22:06.600 --> 0:22:08.960 so I needed a little bit of feedback and Warby 0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:11.680 Parker's system made me feel more comfortable getting glasses than 0:22:11.760 --> 0:22:14.560 ever before.
