Joe Rogan podcast. Check it out.

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.157
>> The Joe Rogan Experience.

00:00:06.240 --> 00:00:12.280
>> TRAIN BY DAY. JOE ROGAN
PODCAST BY NIGHT. All day.

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.317
>> I like him though. I mean, as a kid,
I talked to him a little on the green room

00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:19.597
and then I thought he
had a pretty good set. I

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:23.437
>> He's funny. Matt's funny. Matt
Riff is very funny. The [__] going on?

00:00:23.520 --> 00:00:27.997
>> I don't get [__] crowd work. I mean,
I >> It's not my thing, but I get it. You

00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:31.197
know, it's a it's a tough skill.
Some people are really good at it.

00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:34.397
>> I guess they are.
But I won't let my opening act do it.

00:00:34.480 --> 00:00:37.117
>> Oh, it it becomes a problem >>
because then they feel like they can

00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:38.877
talk to me, which they cannot.

00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:43.837
>> Yes. >> Because I just I always looked
at it as a time killer back when I had 41

00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:46.797
minutes, but I was supposed to do 45
minutes. And I'm like, I got to talk to

00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:49.277
these [__] hay seeds [laughter] for 4

00:00:49.360 --> 00:00:52.317
minutes and get this thing wrapped up.

00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:56.557
But once I had the jokes,
you know, I just do the [__] jokes.

00:00:56.640 --> 00:01:00.237
>> Yeah. I mean, I don't knock it.
It's cool. It's a different thing. It's a

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.637
different thing. It's It's relies on a
very strong improvisational muscle cuz

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:08.637
like you're under the gun to come up
with something funny to say, but it is

00:01:08.720 --> 00:01:12.397
always funnier cuz it's under
the gun than it would be in a normal

00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:15.677
circumstance.
Like the things that you're saying,

00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.757
>> you can never use it again. I mean I
mean you can use the skill all the time.

00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:21.597
I mean I guess some people
are that good at it. But

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.677
>> Ingram's really good at it.
Rick Ingram.

00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:27.437
He's got a lot of like built-in stuff
like material he could pull out too

00:01:27.520 --> 00:01:31.037
because he does it so often. >> Oh yeah.
Kind of blend the two together.

00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:34.957
>> Yeah. Yeah. He seamlessly integrates
the two of them together. He's really good

00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:38.317
at it. >> J Big Jay Big
Jay Okerson. He's really

00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:42.157
good at it. He's really good at it cuz
he knows how to hold a moment. Yeah.

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:45.437
>> He could He knows how to hold like
when someone says something ridiculous. He

00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:49.197
knows how to pause. He knows how
to like He's got great storytelling.

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:52.397
>> Yeah. He's a nice guy, too. But he
he's a great guy, but he also is a great

00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:57.037
comic. Like he just does funny standup
comedy on top of that. So it's like,

00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.557
yeah, the the crowd work is nice, but it's
not the only thing he does. Whereas

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:01.917
some people that's their whole thing.

00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.117
>> Well, I hear these young comics at the
club, I got to work on my crowd work. I

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:07.757
got to work on my crowd work.
And I'm like, well, you don't. But

00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:10.717
>> you see Pat O'Neal's joke about that?
I don't want to give it up on the air, but

00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:13.357
it's really hilarious. He's funny, man.

00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:16.557
That guy's a [__]
that guy's a joke machine.

00:02:16.640 --> 00:02:20.877
>> Pat O'Neal. I think Pat is uh you know
I had him on my show too right after I saw

00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.197
him on Kill Tony. >> So funny.

00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.677
>> And uh you know that's it's amazing.

00:02:25.760 --> 00:02:29.837
Kill Tony. What was the kid's name
that was that opened last night?

00:02:29.920 --> 00:02:31.197
>> Oh, you weren't you
weren't there Monday

00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:36.477
night? I was there Monday night.
The young kid he's uh from Alabama. Do you

00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:39.837
know who I'm talking about?
>> You know he just got the golden ticket

00:02:39.920 --> 00:02:42.557
and told Tony this >> when I was hosting
and you were there that night.

00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:44.557
>> Yeah. Let me text Tony. I'll find out.

00:02:44.640 --> 00:02:48.157
>> Find out. It might not
have even aired yet as it is.

00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:48.957
>> I just don't know his name.

00:02:49.040 --> 00:02:52.957
>> [__] the kid's hilarious. He works
at the club, too. Cool kid, too. And you

00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:55.517
know, was living in Alabama.
Decided to take a chance.

00:02:55.600 --> 00:02:58.797
>> Brent Reed. >> Brent Reed. >> Yeah,
Brent Reed. He's opening for me tonight.

00:02:58.880 --> 00:03:02.717
>> Funny [__] dude. And he was saying,
That's right. Cuz he was saying

00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.477
like you said after you saw him on Kill
Tony, hey, I'd like to have you open for

00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:11.177
me. And he was like, "Holy [__] [__] man."
He had called his dad. He's like,

00:03:11.260 --> 00:03:15.277
[laughter] >> I'm [__]
opening for Ron White.

00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:17.517
was giving him [__]
about his comedy career.

00:03:17.600 --> 00:03:21.037
>> Standup, uh, I have,
you know, standup's

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:22.877
not as funny as it used to be to me.

00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.717
It's very, very rare that I'll sit and
watch somebody do stand up and laugh out

00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.757
loud if I'm up on the balcony. Uh, but

00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:34.637
that that kid cracked me up
and uh, >> he's very good,

00:03:34.720 --> 00:03:37.917
>> great writing.
>> It's what's amazing is that

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:39.517
>> when he came back on Kill Tony, he'd

00:03:39.600 --> 00:03:43.037
only been on one time. One time. They

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.717
already knew who he was. I mean, they
gave him a round of applause like it was

00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:49.517
one of the biggest comics in the
country and he had been on once.

00:03:49.600 --> 00:03:51.917
>> Yeah. >> And it was the second time was

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:56.877
>> he'd actually I thought that too, but
he had actually been on before and bombed

00:03:56.960 --> 00:04:01.757
>> and he talked about that >> about
how he came back and this set he

00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:03.357
was just he'd been working at the club.

00:04:03.440 --> 00:04:07.117
He'd been living in Austin. He's way
more comfortable. Built his act up and

00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:11.997
he was like super honest about it. We're
all chilling in the back. Very cool guy.

00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:14.877
we were just talking about. He's like,
"Yeah, I just had to get my [__]

00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:18.237
together, man. I had to figure out what
the [__] I'm doing." And the first time

00:04:18.320 --> 00:04:20.637
I did, I kind of froze.
But this time, I was like,

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:24.237
>> and this time he had to follow that
other dude. Who was that other dude who

00:04:24.320 --> 00:04:27.677
also got a golden ticket, >> right?
Two in a row. That guy was funny.

00:04:27.760 --> 00:04:30.957
Have we seen him since? I haven't seen
him make seen him since, but that guy's

00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:34.797
[__] talented, too. He was very funny.
So, they got two golden tickets

00:04:34.880 --> 00:04:36.397
in a row. Who was the other guy that got

00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:42.157
a golden ticket? That >> he had
a fun name, like a madeup name.

00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:46.157
Give me a second. Sorry. >> Yeah, it
was like sir >> I [snorts] don't remember

00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:48.237
>> something.
I don't remember. I don't even

00:04:48.320 --> 00:04:49.677
>> I don't remember. But it was hilarious.

00:04:49.760 --> 00:04:51.437
It was ridiculous. Whatever his name was

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:52.957
was ridiculous.

00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:56.797
>> So I just got back
from uh Lake Como and

00:04:56.880 --> 00:05:00.557
uh Verona and Zerat, Switzerland. And

00:05:00.640 --> 00:05:04.237
>> damn, dude. >> [__] 20 21 days.

00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:08.397
>> Wow. >> Of just pure
relaxation. And I got to

00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:10.557
tell you, I dug every goddamn minute of

00:05:10.640 --> 00:05:16.157
it. It was 107° here in Texas. It was Oh,
the high today is 62. Yeah, that guy

00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:19.597
right there. >> What is his name?

00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:25.197
>> [__] was right here.
>> Chose French, I think.

00:05:25.280 --> 00:05:29.757
>> Yeah, I know. >> Francois something,
right? I think it's a fake name.

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:31.197
>> See if he says it here. Sorry.

00:05:31.280 --> 00:05:35.757
>> Does he say it? >> I can't hear.

00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:38.877
>> Fine. I'll find it. Okay, tell me what
it is. But that dude is very funny, too.

00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:42.957
So, he super funny in the interview,
too. Like very funny back and forth.

00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.837
Just a funny dude. >> Right.
>> So, two golden tickets in a row. But

00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:48.637
anyway, that guy killed so hard that

00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:52.957
when the other guy came on after him,
it's like, holy [__] Like, you you got

00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.877
a tough spot here and he murdered.

00:05:54.960 --> 00:05:56.557
>> And he murdered right on top of it.

00:05:56.640 --> 00:05:59.757
>> Yeah. >> So, when he
when he opened for me, there

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:03.677
were still a couple of jokes that didn't
work. I mean, it wasn't like playing a

00:06:03.760 --> 00:06:07.197
Kill Tony crowd. That's right.
That's was a different a little different

00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:10.957
crowd. >> And so, uh,
but he he got his footing

00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:13.677
back and, uh, you know, and and, uh, and

00:06:13.760 --> 00:06:16.237
did a great job for me. So, and then is

00:06:16.320 --> 00:06:18.877
it Dedric, the the other guy, the

00:06:18.960 --> 00:06:21.117
>> Yes, Dedric. Yeah. Dedric Flynn.

00:06:21.200 --> 00:06:25.037
>> Yeah. [__] hilarious guy. I think he's

00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:29.437
>> one of the best around, you know, just
his demeanor on stage. And I'm He's on

00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:31.997
the show tonight, too.
>> And that's another dude that almost

00:06:32.080 --> 00:06:36.237
didn't like leave Atlanta. He was stuck
in Atlanta and just spinning his wheels

00:06:36.320 --> 00:06:39.517
and he couldn't make it happen. And then
he came out here and got on Kill Tony

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.877
and boom. >> It's just
such a great opportunity if

00:06:42.960 --> 00:06:46.797
you're ready for it. If you're not,
it's just another passing moment. And the

00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:50.397
crowds love it, too.
I mean, they the crowds get it.

00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.197
>> But if if you're not ready,
it ain't it ain't going to happen.

00:06:53.280 --> 00:06:55.437
>> Steve Francois. >> Franis. Yeah.

00:06:55.520 --> 00:06:57.437
>> The comedy seller.
I think he has that added.

00:06:57.520 --> 00:06:59.037
>> That's what he calls
himself. The comedy

00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:03.677
seller. Like S E L L E R. Unlike the club.
That's right. That was his crazy

00:07:03.760 --> 00:07:06.797
name, >> the comedy seller.
But very funny dude.

00:07:06.880 --> 00:07:11.117
Uh yeah, I mean it's the greatest thing
for comedians in the history of comedy

00:07:11.200 --> 00:07:15.917
in terms of like having a real platform
that if you've been banging it out on

00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:20.157
the road for seven, eight, nine,
10 years, you put together a solid half

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:22.477
hour. You're really starting to tour.

00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.397
You're middling for guys. You're really

00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:26.077
starting to feel like a real comic. And

00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.757
you got one banger on Kill Tony. Boom.

00:07:29.840 --> 00:07:32.717
Next thing you know, you show up like
look at all these guys. Cuz look at Ari

00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:35.437
Matty. Ari Matty goes on stage.
They go [__] bananas now.

00:07:35.520 --> 00:07:38.397
>> Yeah, they do. >> William
Montgomery, they [__] the the

00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:43.597
Black Keys asked me to bring William
Montgomery to the club cuz I was going

00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:45.837
up that night and they were coming
to the club. They go, "Hey, is William

00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:49.917
Montgomery coming?" I I'll make sure
he comes. [laughter] I called him up.

00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:52.397
>> [__] man. It's it's so much fun, you

00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:55.197
know, and and I even though I enjoyed it

00:07:55.280 --> 00:07:58.157
when I first saw it out in LA,

00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:02.477
>> I did not see I did not have the vision
that Tony has, you know, that of what it

00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.837
could be someday. I just thought it
was a great idea and I didn't know if it

00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:08.797
would ever go anywhere. But good God, I

00:08:08.880 --> 00:08:13.117
told him maybe like four or five years
in, I go, "Whatever you do, don't stop

00:08:13.200 --> 00:08:16.397
doing this." I go, "This is going to be
one of the biggest shows in comedy." I

00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.637
go, "This is so unique and so huge
and so different and the way you host and

00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:23.757
the way you do it is different than the
way anybody else would do it." It's like,

00:08:23.840 --> 00:08:25.277
>> and nobody else could do it. I mean,

00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:28.317
it's all him. It's it's he really is.

00:08:28.400 --> 00:08:31.517
It's pure genius this the show is.

00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.317
>> He's a genius host.
Like, people hate on

00:08:34.400 --> 00:08:39.117
that guy. You have no idea how talented
he is. That improvisational talent that

00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.757
he has off the bat like that.
>> Oh, I have an idea.

00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:43.757
>> Second to none.
[clears throat] >> No, >> second to none.

00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:46.157
>> Second to none. >> It's incred.
And I I was telling him a

00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:47.597
long he's like, "Really? You think so?"

00:08:47.680 --> 00:08:49.837
I go, "Do not ever stop doing this show.

00:08:49.920 --> 00:08:51.117
This show's going to be [__] huge."

00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:54.477
>> [__] And it is too. >> And now it sells
out Madison Square Garden two nights.

00:08:54.560 --> 00:08:57.837
>> Two nights in a row. Yeah.
Well, wish I could do that. [laughter]

00:08:57.920 --> 00:09:02.317
>> It's amazing. I love it. I'm so happy
for him. And it's so cool to watch. And

00:09:02.400 --> 00:09:04.397
it's such a positive karma show because

00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:07.517
all the comics that leave that show and

00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:10.957
they take off like, you know, it's just

00:09:11.040 --> 00:09:15.757
watching Camp Patterson on SNL, watching
all these different comedians just sell

00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:17.437
out all over the country. It's incredible.

00:09:17.520 --> 00:09:20.717
>> I love it, man. I love it
when somebody hits it, you know.

00:09:20.800 --> 00:09:21.997
>> Well, it's great for all of us.

00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:24.317
>> It is. >> It's great
for the club. It's great for

00:09:24.400 --> 00:09:27.677
the the young people coming up to see
that it's possible, that someone else

00:09:27.760 --> 00:09:32.797
can make it there. It's like it's
the new like Hollywood you got a sitcom

00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:37.037
thing. You know what I mean? It's like
very similar because back in those days

00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:40.237
like when one of your friends got
a sitcom you're like holy [__] Mike got

00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:43.437
cast on [__] Bob's cousin whatever

00:09:43.520 --> 00:09:47.837
the [__] it is some stupid ass sitcom
and everybody was like wow maybe I can

00:09:47.920 --> 00:09:51.517
make it too that this is the new version
of that. you're seeing guys actually but

00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:54.077
in now it's just standup like you have a

00:09:54.160 --> 00:09:56.077
real career in standup from it

00:09:56.160 --> 00:09:59.037
>> right which is all I've ever done right

00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:01.677
I my that's all I've ever done is

00:10:01.760 --> 00:10:04.237
standup comedy and so that's kind of a a

00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:07.437
weird career you know not to be able to

00:10:07.520 --> 00:10:11.517
bounce to here off of anything
other than just jokes

00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:15.357
>> standup comedy is a weird career
period cuz you know everyone's like

00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.877
psychologically fragile >> right
and then you're going through

00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:22.317
these ups and downs and you're trying
to sell tickets and you're trying to be

00:10:22.400 --> 00:10:25.437
relevant and >>
and something's got to happen.

00:10:25.520 --> 00:10:27.517
>> Something's got to happen,
>> right? I mean, there's got to be a

00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:32.077
catalyst, right? And for me, it was all,
you know, the bluecollar comedy tour,

00:10:32.160 --> 00:10:35.517
which now people don't even remember
what that is, but at one time it was a

00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:39.437
big deal, you know, and it it uh >> I
think most people my age remember it.

00:10:39.520 --> 00:10:43.917
Most people are also shocked that there's
not another one. Some other guys

00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:48.237
haven't figured out how to do something
like that. Like take that level of

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.917
comics, like four of them,
put them together and go on tour.

00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.757
>> Right. Well, you know, with the killers
that kill Tony, it's kind of like that,

00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:59.357
you know, the group of some guys that now

00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.517
>> not as big as, you know, Foxworthy and
Foxworthy was the only real star of that

00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:06.877
show when it started. You know, he was he
was willing to share a stage with me

00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:11.437
and and uh that's, you know, that that
was the catalyst for me. But I'd also

00:11:11.520 --> 00:11:16.077
been doing stand up for 14 years and I've
been h headlining comedy clubs for

00:11:16.160 --> 00:11:18.637
11 of them. >> That's the thing,
right? It's there's no

00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.397
substitute for the time in. And there's
so many guys that are like right about

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.157
to crack. You know, that's where Kill
Tony really comes along. Guys that have

00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:29.837
really put that time in,
really been on the road. Yeah.

00:11:29.920 --> 00:11:33.357
>> If you're prepared for the opportunity,
then that's the best thing out there for

00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.877
you. >> And if you're not, then it
was just another [__] day at the park, you

00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:40.077
know? No big deal. Then you have to figure
out what the [__] you're going to

00:11:40.160 --> 00:11:41.997
do with your life. >> Yeah.
[laughter] Good luck.

00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.917
>> Because you bomb
on Kill Tony and you're

00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.197
an Uber Eats driver
and you're like, "Oh no, man.

00:11:47.280 --> 00:11:51.037
>> What is my life now?" >> Yeah.
I'm, you know, I'm I'm glad that I

00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:55.037
didn't really get weird exposure early
and that's the worst thing that could

00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:58.557
happen is you win a contest or something
and you don't have the show to back it

00:11:58.640 --> 00:12:03.037
up with, but all of a sudden you can
sell tickets and that's just a a death

00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:04.797
spiral is what that is.

00:12:04.880 --> 00:12:07.597
>> Yeah. That could do you in.

00:12:07.680 --> 00:12:11.997
It's all there's a such a dance of like
what works and what doesn't work. Guys

00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:15.437
trying to find their voice on stage and
trying to write and trying to figure out

00:12:15.520 --> 00:12:20.077
what to do and then also might have
a drinking problem. Also might do cocaine,

00:12:20.160 --> 00:12:25.277
[laughter] >> right? >> Also
might have owe the IRS $50,000. You

00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.997
know, they're like some of these guys
are so [__] up, but like they're some

00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:29.997
of our favorite artists. >> Yeah.

00:12:30.080 --> 00:12:31.757
>> And when they crack
through and then all

00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.597
of a sudden become comfortable and make
a living, it's [__] glorious thing to see.

00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:36.957
>> Yeah. Yeah,
it was always neat at the at

00:12:37.040 --> 00:12:40.157
the comedy store cuz all the comics park
in that parking lot and you could tell

00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:44.077
when something happened cuz it's either
shitty cars or great cars. There was no

00:12:44.160 --> 00:12:48.077
medium cars out there. You were either
broke or you had cash. And if you had

00:12:48.160 --> 00:12:51.197
cash, you had a new car. >> I know.
There would be times you go back

00:12:51.280 --> 00:12:55.117
there. It was like Mercedes,
Ferrari, Porsche, Corvette,

00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:59.517
>> right? Vega. [laughter] >> Well,
there was always a lot of people

00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:03.037
that I always tried to talk Mark Marin
into getting a nice car. He would never

00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:05.837
do it. him and Ari like I had a M3 once.

00:13:05.920 --> 00:13:07.677
I'm like, "Mark, this is a sensible car.

00:13:07.760 --> 00:13:10.157
This is not too crazy. It's not too Look

00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:13.037
at me." I go, "It's so fun to drive." I

00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:17.357
go, "Dude, it makes driving a ride. You
don't even have to go fast. Just the way

00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:22.157
it handles, the way it accelerates,
the braking, carbon fiber brakes.

00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:24.237
>> It's got carbon ceramic brakes, man.

00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:28.957
It's [__] incredible. It's It's on rails,
this thing." I was like, he goes,

00:13:29.040 --> 00:13:32.077
"How much is it?" like we're going back
and forth. You just couldn't be that

00:13:32.160 --> 00:13:35.357
ostentatious, you know, I've got a lot
of money guy. Even when you had a lot of

00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:36.717
money, I'm like, what's the point?

00:13:36.800 --> 00:13:40.557
>> I was the same way when I first started
making money because I just assumed it

00:13:40.640 --> 00:13:42.717
was all going to end, right? So, which

00:13:42.800 --> 00:13:46.237
it does normally. And uh and so I was

00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:51.357
like, [__] man. I I I just got to be
ready for when this I got to make as

00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:54.557
much money as I can and work as hard
as I can before this whole thing comes

00:13:54.640 --> 00:13:59.037
tumbling [__] down. >> Wow.
>> And it never [__] did. So now then I

00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:03.437
was like, "Oh, somebody's got to put
a stop to this." And uh and then I I tried

00:14:03.520 --> 00:14:06.237
to quit for a little while,
but [__] it's just too much fun.

00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:09.517
>> I spent every penny
I had for years. I I

00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:13.277
I didn't give a [__] Even when I was
on TV, I was living like a baller. I was

00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:18.110
just spending all my money.
I didn't save anything. [laughter]

00:14:18.560 --> 00:14:23.997
I'm like, if it doesn't go, if it goes
out, I'm not living normal now so I

00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:27.277
could live normal forever. I'll figure
out a way to live normal. Like right now

00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.797
I'm on [__] television. Like give me
[laughter] a car. Let's go. I want to

00:14:30.880 --> 00:14:33.917
buy a house. >> I was like,
"Look, if if I go bankrupt."

00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:37.997
I've had my car repossessed before. I've
been broke before. Like, okay, I'll be

00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:40.957
broke again. But right now, I'm not broke.
So, I'm going to live like I'm not broke.

00:14:41.040 --> 00:14:45.997
>> Yeah. I was living like I wasn't
broke this uh past 3 weeks in Switzerland.

00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:49.197
>> That's a nice way to live, man. But I
don't think you could do it forever. I

00:14:49.280 --> 00:14:52.957
think that's the thing. Like, you have
to work as hard as you do. Like, you're

00:14:53.040 --> 00:14:56.397
always touring. You're always working
on your material. You're always riding.

00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:00.237
You're always doing sets. You're at the
club all the time. You're always banging

00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:03.277
it out. So for you, you've earned that.

00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.997
Like when you kick back and you got
a [__] panina colado, you don't drink

00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.197
anymore, but you're sitting back with
whatever you're doing, just taking in

00:15:11.280 --> 00:15:14.557
that sun. Not a damn thing to do.
People are feeding you food.

00:15:14.640 --> 00:15:18.237
>> Yeah. >> The the the
work's already been done.

00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:20.477
[sighs] >> Yeah. >> But you
have to earn that. If you just

00:15:20.560 --> 00:15:22.557
do that, that's not good on its own.

00:15:22.640 --> 00:15:26.317
That's it. People look to that thing
as if it's like Jordan Peterson's talked

00:15:26.400 --> 00:15:30.077
about that before like [snorts] that
people imagine their retirement sitting

00:15:30.160 --> 00:15:33.917
on a beach drinking margaritas. Like how
many margaritas can you drink? How long

00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:36.717
can you sit on that beach
before now you're depressed?

00:15:36.800 --> 00:15:39.917
>> Or even if it's a even if it's
you you bought a yacht, >> right?

00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:41.277
>> How long can you sit on that?

00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:43.837
>> That's crazy.
>> Uh before you're bored out of your

00:15:43.920 --> 00:15:46.157
skull. And uh but yeah, I'm you know

00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:48.877
it's it's almost 70 years old. I you

00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:53.597
know, [__] yeah. I I deserve all
the I get to do whatever I want. So

00:15:53.680 --> 00:15:57.917
>> yeah, you get to do whatever you
want and but again like 20 days is good.

00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.397
>> Have you ever been
to back to work? I have not.

00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:04.797
>> [__] It's so gorgeous.
And it's not even that.

00:16:04.880 --> 00:16:09.357
>> It's the the infrastructure of it. And
you know, we're 40 trillion in debt. We

00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:13.037
don't have a high-speed train to anywhere.
Where's our [__] You know,

00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:16.397
and but [clears throat] you
can get to the top of almost any

00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:20.557
mountain there at 70 years old.
You'll get take a train to here, a [__]

00:16:20.640 --> 00:16:24.557
augur, cut through a mountain here, then
a gondola over there, and then over the

00:16:24.640 --> 00:16:26.317
top. You can actually go to [__]

00:16:26.400 --> 00:16:31.597
Italy on gondelas from Switzerland
and have dinner and come back. It was

00:16:31.680 --> 00:16:36.717
[__] gorgeous. The only thing I
didn't like was pay toilets and uh

00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:40.877
because I didn't have you have
to have a dollar in Fris Swiss Franks

00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:44.317
>> to take a [__] >> to take
a [__] And I'm like, that's

00:16:44.400 --> 00:16:46.077
discrimination. It's like, why is it

00:16:46.160 --> 00:16:48.077
discrimination? Only people with a

00:16:48.160 --> 00:16:51.997
dollar can [__] here. And then if and it

00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:55.197
wouldn't take a euro and it wouldn't
take American money. But then I found

00:16:55.280 --> 00:16:59.597
out, oh, you can use a credit card.
So I have to borrow money to [__]

00:16:59.680 --> 00:17:01.997
>> Make payments. Pay a dollar.

00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:04.397
>> A dollar to [__] >> Yeah.
But if you don't have one of those

00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:07.597
dollars, you got to get your credit
card out and swipe it on this.

00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:10.157
>> I guess after a while,
everybody adjusts

00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:12.717
and you just keep a dollar with you if
you're going to go out in case you have

00:17:12.800 --> 00:17:17.037
to [__] And that way at least you
keep the riff raff out of the toilets.

00:17:17.120 --> 00:17:20.077
>> Yeah. Well, they got a riff raff
got to [__] somewhere. You know,

00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:21.437
>> do you want them [__] on the street?

00:17:21.520 --> 00:17:24.797
>> And I was I was about to [__] on the
floor if I couldn't find a way in. And

00:17:24.880 --> 00:17:28.877
finally, it's another guy
behind me a credit card work. So,

00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:31.197
>> you should be able to do Apple Pay.

00:17:31.280 --> 00:17:33.837
>> Yeah. Straight through
to the [__] >> Yeah. Can't you?

00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.437
>> But uh but I loved it. I had so
much fun. Lake Como was so beautiful.

00:17:37.520 --> 00:17:40.637
>> Well, you know,
Switzerland has famously

00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:42.957
been neutral, right? That's Switzerland.

00:17:43.040 --> 00:17:46.397
And a lot of banks, a lot of banks go
over there, right? They got a lot of

00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:48.477
money and they don't
spend any of it on war.

00:17:48.560 --> 00:17:52.237
>> Yeah. They don't spend a dime of it
on war. And I I was asking, you know, it

00:17:52.320 --> 00:17:55.357
was kind of interesting because um I I

00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:58.637
went to to to France almost exactly a

00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:02.477
year before >> and I got
kicked off that u yeah cruise

00:18:02.560 --> 00:18:06.237
ship, the little Viking cruise. Did I
ever tell you that story about kicked

00:18:06.320 --> 00:18:10.397
off on that [__] thing?
>> This episode is brought to you by NBC.

00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:11.837
When you put agents from the Secret

Service, US Marshalss, DOJ, and FBI

00:18:15.120 --> 00:18:17.517

dinner table conversation. Line of Fire

law enforcement agents. Each week, they
work together on highstakes cases taking

00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.077
down the country's most dangerous
criminals. Like any family, the

00:18:34.160 --> 00:18:38.157
Hollingsworth don't always see eye to eye,
but they always have each other's

00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:42.477
backs. After all, working in the federal
government isn't just their job. It's

00:18:42.560 --> 00:18:44.637
the family business. Line of Fire

00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:47.997
premieres Monday, September 21 at 10, 9

00:18:48.080 --> 00:18:51.037
central after The Voice on NBC and the

00:18:51.120 --> 00:18:55.037
next day on Peacock. I knew it was going
to be a problem when I saw the boat,

00:18:55.120 --> 00:18:59.437
right? Cuz I got weed and gummies and
[__] and I'm like, I don't know if this

00:18:59.520 --> 00:19:02.717
is going to work or not, but I'll just
see what I can get away with, right? And

00:19:02.800 --> 00:19:07.357
then and then I'll deny it and then
do something different. You know, we we

00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:10.157
park the boat every day. I can just get
off the boat and smoke. I don't really

00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:13.757
care. And the [__] people came down

00:19:13.840 --> 00:19:17.757
on me so hard at the Viking cruises. And

00:19:17.840 --> 00:19:19.677
uh the the captain of the ship

00:19:19.760 --> 00:19:21.357
confronted me in front of a bunch of

00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:27.277
people really loud and aggressive
and called me a liar. And uh

00:19:27.360 --> 00:19:31.357
>> Were you lying? >> No,
I was smoking pot out on my deck and

00:19:31.440 --> 00:19:35.197
which is where the the first guy came
in and said, "Hey, listen. you can't smoke

00:19:35.280 --> 00:19:37.997
pot in your room, but if you want
to smoke pot on your deck, well, that's

00:19:38.080 --> 00:19:40.317
what I'd been doing, but I hadn't been
real careful about keeping the [snorts]

00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:44.877
door shut. And this was the the hotel
manager guy, not the captain of the

00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:47.117
ship. And he was the nicest guy ever.

00:19:47.200 --> 00:19:52.077
Uh, and he meant me no harm.
Just figure this out, you know. And

00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:56.077
>> well, the next day we were parked
right at the dock and the dock was right

00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:59.997
there, right off my balcony. And I'm
sitting there in a cloud in a puff going

00:20:00.080 --> 00:20:03.837
anywhere and he calls and says, "Hey,
the captain wants to talk to you." And

00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:05.117
I'm like, "Do I know what it's about?"

00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:09.677
And he goes, "Yeah, you know." And I'm
like, "All right." And uh they came in

00:20:09.760 --> 00:20:13.197
just in the hallway, just dressed me down.
And he said, "Uh" I said, "No, I

00:20:13.280 --> 00:20:17.757
was smoking pot where that guy told
me to." And pointed right at the other

00:20:17.840 --> 00:20:21.277
dude. And he goes, "I think you were
smoking pot in your in your bathroom."

00:20:21.360 --> 00:20:25.917
And he got in the ventilation system.
I You just made that [__] up, dude. You

00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:28.877
just called me a liar. I'm one of your
customers. I bought a suite on this

00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:32.957
goddamn thing. And he said, "You listen
to me." And and and at the end of it, he

00:20:33.040 --> 00:20:35.677
goes, "Well, listen. If you want to smoke
pot on the top deck, maybe I could

00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:38.557
look the other way."
Why didn't you open with that?

00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:43.197
>> Yeah. >> Instead of jumping my [__]
ass. And >> how illegal is pot over there?

00:20:43.280 --> 00:20:46.557
>> Oh, you know, I was in the wrong.
You know, it's probably illegal, but

00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:49.357
>> But I mean, how illegal? >> No,
not really. I mean, you can still

00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:53.757
buy Paris. You can go to You can get
a [__] card and go in and buy weed.

00:20:53.840 --> 00:20:56.557
Okay. And then >> Well,
that's silly, man. God, the whole

00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.397
thing's so silly that that's still
an issue. I get the whole smoking pot

00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:05.597
publicly. It is gross, especially to
non-smokers and people with families who

00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:06.957
>> get how strong the smell is.

00:21:07.040 --> 00:21:09.197
>> Yeah, it's strong. I get that. I

00:21:09.280 --> 00:21:11.917
understand that. That makes sense to me.

00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:14.477
But the laws against it are just stupid.

00:21:14.560 --> 00:21:19.437
They're just [__] stupid. >> Speaking of
felonies, >> you can't do that on the air,

00:21:19.520 --> 00:21:20.957
>> huh? I'm not. It's a cigar.

00:21:21.040 --> 00:21:23.757
>> Oh, okay.
You can smoke that on the air.

00:21:23.840 --> 00:21:26.877
>> I brought you one, too.
>> Oh, thank you. Let's go. It's uh

00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:29.117
actually I can't tell you where it's from.

00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:33.997
>> Uhoh. >> Because uh that's
a felony, too. But >> why? Huh?

00:21:34.080 --> 00:21:35.757
>> Oh, is this from that other country?

00:21:35.840 --> 00:21:37.917
>> That some foreign country.
I actually bought it in

00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:39.357
>> I think those are legal to have.

00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:43.037
>> No, they're not. >> I think
Cuban cigars are legal to have.

00:21:43.120 --> 00:21:45.517
And that's not what we're talking about
cuz these definitely wouldn't be Cuban

00:21:45.600 --> 00:21:48.877
cigars. But I think Cuban
cigars are legal to have.

00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.117
>> Oh, >> I think you're
allowed to have a certain

00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:54.877
amount of them now where it used to be
there was an embargo to all trade to

00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:58.877
Cuba. And I think there's a limited amount
of Cuban cigars you're allowed to possess.

00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:00.477
>> Let's look that up.
I don't think that's right.

00:22:00.560 --> 00:22:04.877
>> I don't believe that's the case.
Do you need a lighter, sir?

00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:07.197
>> There you go. >> Thank you very much.

00:22:07.280 --> 00:22:08.557
>> Ron White, ladies and gentlemen. What a

00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:14.680
gentleman. Boy, this smells
like South of Florida.

00:22:17.760 --> 00:22:22.557
>> For this is tough.
Damn, these are legit.

00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:23.997
>> Damn, this is a real thing, Ron White.

00:22:24.080 --> 00:22:28.477
Yeah, it is. >> There's like a loophole.

00:22:28.560 --> 00:22:29.997
>> Isn't it weird? There's a loophole.

00:22:30.080 --> 00:22:31.997
Yeah. >> Isn't it weird
how like some countries

00:22:32.080 --> 00:22:37.677
are just way better at at certain [__]
Can you buy Cuban cigars at a US shop?

00:22:37.760 --> 00:22:42.237
No. >> No. >> Can you order Cuban
cigars online for delivery to the US? No.

00:22:42.320 --> 00:22:45.357
>> Yeah, you can. >> Uh,
smoke a Cuban cigar while abroad

00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.277
where the law permits it. Generally,

00:22:47.360 --> 00:22:50.557
yes, but do not bring it back. What?

00:22:50.640 --> 00:22:53.757
That's crazy. Imagine they're telling

00:22:53.840 --> 00:22:58.557
you whether or not you can smoke
a Cuban cigar if you're in England,

00:22:58.640 --> 00:23:01.357
>> right? >> I used to get
them from England. I had a

00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:05.197
dude in England that would send them
to me. This is way back in the D. And he

00:23:05.280 --> 00:23:08.397
would send me a box of them with no
bands on them. And then he would send me

00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:12.317
a separate bag with all
the bands in it in an envelope.

00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:13.917
>> You notice these
don't have bands on them.

00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:18.877
>> That's the thing. Yeah. But there's
so many fake ones. No, that's the most uh

00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:24.237
the most counterfeited thing
in the world is uh Cohiba cigars.

00:23:24.320 --> 00:23:27.597
>> Um >> look at this.
Says for a period ending

00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.237
September 2020, travelers could bring

00:23:30.320 --> 00:23:34.877
limited Cuban cigars back for personal
use. That exemption was removed.

00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:39.357
Exception was removed. Current CBP
guidance says people subject to US

00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:43.197
jurisdiction may acquire Cuban goods
while outside the United States in

00:23:43.280 --> 00:23:48.397
certain circumstances but may not import
Cuban origin tobacco products into the

00:23:48.480 --> 00:23:50.477
country. Well, thank
God these aren't Cuban.

00:23:50.560 --> 00:23:54.557
>> Yeah, thank God. Well, I bought them
in Switzerland, so I assume they're Swiss.

00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:55.757
>> They must be. >> They must be.

00:23:55.840 --> 00:23:57.997
>> They're really good at everything
over there, including cheese.

00:23:58.080 --> 00:24:02.397
>> Well, they're good at cigars. That's
Zeno David off Swiss from Switzerland.

00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:05.277
>> Oh, really? >> Yeah.
>> Where do they get their tobacco? Mhm.

00:24:05.360 --> 00:24:09.117
Well, he was he was he was rolling cigars.
He was making cigars in Cuba,

00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:12.397
but he smelled the whole thing coming
before everybody else did. Moved to

00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:15.677
Dominican Republic. And before he did
that, he moved seeds over there, started

00:24:15.760 --> 00:24:18.317
plantations, moved his rollers over there.

00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:22.957
>> So really, when that all went down, the
only really good cigar you could get was

00:24:23.040 --> 00:24:26.477
uh David off. >> It's kind
of crazy how the Cubans really

00:24:26.560 --> 00:24:30.557
are so much better. There's like
a level They're a level above.

00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.397
>> They're a level above. And one of it is
the Rollers. Uh, you know, they just had

00:24:34.480 --> 00:24:37.517
generational rollers and they have these
big rolling rooms for somebody to sit up

00:24:37.600 --> 00:24:40.557
in the front of the the thing and read
them books and they just sit there and

00:24:40.640 --> 00:24:42.397
roll these beautiful [__] classic

00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:47.677
cigars that smoke gorgeous and taste
gorgeous. Well, if you don't have that,

00:24:47.760 --> 00:24:50.717
there have been companies that have
bought other cigar companies just to get

00:24:50.800 --> 00:24:54.557
their rollers and then discontinue
the line all together. Now, I need these

00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:57.277
guys twisting up some [__]
>> Yeah, you need the Wizards.

00:24:57.360 --> 00:24:59.677
>> Yeah. There was a place in Miami where

00:24:59.760 --> 00:25:02.077
we used to go to uh when we would do uh

00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:04.877
the Miami improv and you could go and

00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:07.197
watch these people who were used to be

00:25:07.280 --> 00:25:09.277
in Cuba and now they're in Miami rolling

00:25:09.360 --> 00:25:14.317
cigars. Watch them do it, cut it,
roll it out and they'd sell you the cigars

00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:15.677
right there and it's like incredible.

00:25:15.760 --> 00:25:18.717
You watch them do it >>
and that is pure contraband too, you

00:25:18.800 --> 00:25:22.397
know, because they're bring that that
tobacco is coming from somewhere and

00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:23.357
>> I don't know where they're getting it.

00:25:23.440 --> 00:25:26.957
They didn't I don't know if they even
said I don't remember. a long time ago.

00:25:27.040 --> 00:25:29.997
But you know, you you can get great

00:25:30.080 --> 00:25:34.317
cigars from Nicaragua, great cigars
from Dominican Republic, but there is a

00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:35.837
difference. >> Yeah, there's a difference.

00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:39.597
>> It's crazy. You know, it's a really
small area, too, where they grow the

00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:42.237
>> tiny place. And actually, you can still

00:25:42.320 --> 00:25:46.477
buy pre-imbargo Cuban cigars in America.

00:25:46.560 --> 00:25:50.477
>> So, if it was rolled and brought into
the country before the embargo, they're

00:25:50.560 --> 00:25:54.317
legal. And there's a market for them
and they're expensive. pre-imargo Cuban

00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:57.437
cigars because >> all these
really well they have to have

00:25:57.520 --> 00:25:59.997
been kept the whole time in humidors.

00:26:00.080 --> 00:26:03.917
>> Whoa. >> Uh but these
big rich guys that you know

00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:08.077
cigars were a penny and then Cuban
cigars came available and they were a

00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:10.237
nickel. Nobody going to pay a nickel.

00:26:10.320 --> 00:26:14.317
You know this 120 years ago and uh but

00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:17.517
it turns out they did pay a nickel
and they were just that much better. And

00:26:17.600 --> 00:26:20.637
then those guys when they heard about
that embargo, they bought everything

00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:22.637
there was and built these huge humidors.

00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:26.877
And when they died, >> those things
went on the market, you know, and

00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.557
>> Oh, wow. >> I I stayed
at the Fairmont Hotel in San

00:26:30.640 --> 00:26:33.437
Francisco and they have a Cuban cigar

00:26:33.520 --> 00:26:36.957
outlet in that hotel. So I bought one

00:26:37.040 --> 00:26:41.437
because it was like $200 and I'm like,
>> so it's like a 1960 cigar,

00:26:41.520 --> 00:26:45.517
>> 62 or something like that. >> Crazy.
See if you can find those online.

00:26:45.600 --> 00:26:48.477
Are those available online?
I'm sure they are.

00:26:48.560 --> 00:26:50.877
>> That's a crazy thing.
>> Pre-imargo Cubans.

00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:55.277
>> You know what JFK or RF? Yeah. JFK
rather. JFK did that before he made the

00:26:55.360 --> 00:26:59.357
embargo. He bought a shitload of cigars,
brought them back. You [__]

00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:00.957
>> Yeah. And he knew what he was doing.

00:27:01.040 --> 00:27:02.477
>> You [__] >> He knew what he was doing.

00:27:02.560 --> 00:27:07.037
>> You [__] >> Yeah. >> You did
that and then you made them illegal.

00:27:07.120 --> 00:27:11.597
>> Yeah. What's up?
>> It's It's I had to click I was 18 plus

00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:13.917
on Reddit to look at a picture of them.

00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:17.997
It says it's NSFW content
and it's just pictures of cigars.

00:27:18.080 --> 00:27:19.437
>> Why is that not safe for work?

00:27:19.520 --> 00:27:21.437
>> I have no idea. Look, like the whole

00:27:21.520 --> 00:27:27.197
cigar thing is all NSFW.
>> Pre-mbargo 1962. Are those for sale or

00:27:27.280 --> 00:27:28.877
they're just photos?
>> I was just finding a photo. I thought

00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:31.357
that was super strange. I didn't
even get >> That is super strange.

00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:33.677
>> It's on eBay. I probably can't
find them on eBay, I bet. But

00:27:33.760 --> 00:27:37.517
>> it's porn for cigar people, >> right?
They just want to stare at them.

00:27:37.600 --> 00:27:41.277
>> I felt it move. [laughter]

00:27:41.360 --> 00:27:44.077
What is it about men who love collecting

00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:47.037
things that are hard to get?

00:27:47.120 --> 00:27:51.757
>> Well, I think that uh once you
have money and then you you you all the

00:27:51.840 --> 00:27:54.397
things you thought you wanted, you get
those and then you want something you

00:27:54.480 --> 00:27:59.197
can't have. >> This is not too bad.
This is one that's 300 bucks >> for

00:27:59.280 --> 00:28:01.357
>> for one cigar. >> A bundle of 25.

00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:03.757
>> What? Really?
>> I think it's a bundle of 25.

00:28:03.840 --> 00:28:05.517
>> That's ridiculous. That's very cheap.

00:28:05.600 --> 00:28:09.757
That's cheap for any Cuban cigar.
[__] Wow. That can't be possible.

00:28:09.840 --> 00:28:14.477
>> No, I paid more than that
for >> these guys are [__] you.

00:28:14.560 --> 00:28:18.237
>> Probably fake. This is how you get This
is how you stumble across fake sneakers

00:28:18.320 --> 00:28:20.797
really quickly.
>> Brian Jordans. You think

00:28:20.880 --> 00:28:23.757
>> Look at Look at the reviews.
You think it's real? It's all four stars.

00:28:23.840 --> 00:28:26.157
>> I just say if you guys are already
saying the price isn't right. This is

00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:28.637
some fake [__] >> I don't know.
Ron would be the one to

00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:32.477
know. I have no I didn't even know about
this till 20 minutes ago. Maybe it's real.

00:28:32.560 --> 00:28:34.957
>> This is how people I'm
telling you fake Jordans.

00:28:35.040 --> 00:28:37.917
>> Jamie, let's order a box.
I can't imagine that.

00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:39.837
>> Order a box, please. Add a cart.

00:28:39.920 --> 00:28:41.597
>> Who's going to smoke
it first and test it?

00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:45.997
>> I will. I will. Ron and I will.
We'll bring it to the club.

00:28:46.080 --> 00:28:50.077
>> Um, >> just pause that.
Just put that aside.

00:28:50.160 --> 00:28:53.357
Send it to me. I'll order a box. We'll
see what's up. [snorts] >> All right.

00:28:53.440 --> 00:28:55.437
>> See if Long as we don't get in trouble.

00:28:55.520 --> 00:28:58.477
That's totally legal. >> Yeah,
totally legal. If it's pre-imb say

00:28:58.560 --> 00:29:00.797
that in the other thing.
It didn't say pre-imbargo.

00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:04.557
>> First, here's a review. First five
pack I bought was not good. Every single

00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:08.877
cigar was plugged and didn't have
a smooth and easy draw. Not just from this

00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:11.037
particular cigar,
but Kamacho as a whole. Yeah.

00:29:11.120 --> 00:29:12.957
>> And he still gave him four stars.

00:29:13.040 --> 00:29:15.597
>> However, the handwritten thank you card

00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:20.157
I received I never forgot and gave
Cigar City a second chance to the latest

00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:23.837
five-pack I bought was well worth
the price. It's a sad day when the Cuba

00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:27.997
Tobacco bundlers for this cigar are
all used up. This may be my number one

00:29:28.080 --> 00:29:32.317
favorite cigar, hands down.
The transition between each third is

00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:35.677
absolutely incredible. So, the first
five pack sucked and the second five

00:29:35.760 --> 00:29:38.077
pack was insane. >> Interesting.

00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:41.117
>> Huh. >> Well, they're cheap.
So, >> maybe maybe they have

00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:46.717
>> they have 10 reviews total.
Five seven or fives and three or fours.

00:29:46.800 --> 00:29:48.317
>> I'm just saying.
>> Eight. >> All right.

00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:52.477
>> Take a swing at five cigars. [__] it.

00:29:52.560 --> 00:29:55.917
>> You can handle it. >> Yeah, we'll
we'll see what >> you get beat out of.

00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.077
>> We'll be all right.
I bought dumber [__]

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:04.477
>> No, for sure.
How's that [__] Corvette you got, baby?

00:30:04.560 --> 00:30:06.957
>> How's that thing? >> Somebody
wants to buy it from me. You know who?

00:30:07.040 --> 00:30:12.317
>> Who? >> Uh Jay McGra.
>> Does he? Oh, >> yeah.

00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:15.677
>> He can get one of those. He can get
one built. You don't want to sell yours.

00:30:15.760 --> 00:30:17.277
Yours is yours. Yours is set up for you.

00:30:17.360 --> 00:30:21.437
>> Yeah, that's my car. >> That thing's
beautiful, man. Yeah, you can't sell that.

00:30:21.520 --> 00:30:25.037
>> That's You have to keep that. That's
Someday when you die, that that'll go on

00:30:25.120 --> 00:30:28.317
auction. It'll be worth a fuckload of
money. That thing is beautiful. And it's

00:30:28.400 --> 00:30:31.597
got a bar in the trunk. >> [laughter]
>> It doesn't have it anymore.

00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:34.557
>> You took the >> I took it out.
So, because it didn't

00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:37.197
have a top because I wanted that bar

00:30:37.280 --> 00:30:39.677
>> for whatever [__] reason. Joe,

00:30:39.760 --> 00:30:44.477
>> did you get Calvin in Austin? Did
they do the work on it? I think they did,

00:30:44.560 --> 00:30:46.877
right? >> Yeah. >> Casey.
Yeah, he's the best.

00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:48.797
>> They they they've
done some of the work.

00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:52.317
Some of it was done in Atlanta. I mean,
the basic build was done in Atlanta, but

00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:55.917
the setup on it was done
by Kurt Bush's race team. M

00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:00.477
>> he was testing tires at his oval track
and he said, "Bring it out here." Cuz he

00:31:00.560 --> 00:31:03.517
knew I was building it and he said,
"I'll I'll have a guy set it up for you."

00:31:03.600 --> 00:31:06.157
>> Oh, that's awesome.
>> And uh so there's footage on the

00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:08.797
internet of him driving at 170 mph on an

00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:13.357
oval track and me going, "What the [__]
dude?" He's doing donuts in it. I'm

00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:15.437
like, "GOD DAMN, I JUST HAD THAT [__]

00:31:15.520 --> 00:31:20.637
PAINT JOB. [laughter] You
could drive it. Set it up."

00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:22.317
And he said, "We need to drop that front

00:31:22.400 --> 00:31:28.317
end uh an inch." And uh and I said,
"Well, yeah, but if we drop that front,

00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:30.877
Ron, >> we need to drop
the front end an inch.

00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:32.557
You don't need to ask questions."

00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:36.477
>> I'm like, "Okay, drop front end an
inch, buddy. You know more about this [__]

00:31:36.560 --> 00:31:39.517
than I do, don't you?" >> Those
guy I can't really drive. I can

00:31:39.600 --> 00:31:42.717
drive. I mean, I've been around a track
a few times. I know how to drive, but

00:31:42.800 --> 00:31:46.717
not like these guys know. They feel
things that you and I wouldn't feel.

00:31:46.800 --> 00:31:49.517
They're like, "Oh, the left camber is off.
This is off. There's something

00:31:49.600 --> 00:31:53.837
going. It's, you know, they have all,
you know, the under steer is off.

00:31:53.920 --> 00:31:55.597
something. So, I don't like these tires.

00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:57.677
Like, they feel it with their ass.

00:31:57.760 --> 00:31:59.757
>> Yeah. Yeah.
And and they did a beautiful

00:31:59.840 --> 00:32:03.437
[__] job on it. And it's so much fun
to drive. It scares me a little bit

00:32:03.520 --> 00:32:06.477
because, you know, it's just got so much

00:32:06.560 --> 00:32:08.397
power, you know, so light

00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:11.357
>> and and nothing to it, but running over

00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:14.157
running over 500 horsepower. I just had

00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:18.637
fuel injection put on it because it
was running kind of rough early on, you

00:32:18.720 --> 00:32:21.997
know, when I'd get it start,
it start cold, but now it just boom.

00:32:22.080 --> 00:32:26.237
>> Yeah. Was it a carburetor setup
before that? Like, yeah, those stink, too.

00:32:26.320 --> 00:32:29.997
>> The problem is they make your whole
car stink like gasoline. Like, those old I

00:32:30.080 --> 00:32:32.717
used to like that. I used to like
>> I still like the smell of gas.

00:32:32.800 --> 00:32:35.837
>> There's something about you getting an
old muscle car, you smell that gasoline.

00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:40.557
Like, America. It's just
uh it's so a lot of it is

00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:44.397
nostalgia, you know?
Nostalgia from the time when I

00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:47.437
was when I was a kid,
muscle cars were the thing.

00:32:47.520 --> 00:32:49.437
>> Well, mine's, you know, mine was born

00:32:49.520 --> 00:32:52.877
the same year I was, 1956. So, so it's

00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:55.437
been running, it's been around 70 years.

00:32:55.520 --> 00:32:58.797
That car has just like me.
Still running just like me. So,

00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:00.477
>> Right. But it's got all new parts.

00:33:00.560 --> 00:33:03.437
>> Yeah. It's not the same. We got to work
on that with you. We [laughter] We could

00:33:03.520 --> 00:33:05.837
have driven away what we didn't use.

00:33:05.920 --> 00:33:08.157
>> Yeah. That's the same with mine, my 65.

00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:10.397
There's nothing in that
other than the outside,

00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:13.677
>> right? That's all mine is frame.
And I mean, everything

00:33:13.760 --> 00:33:15.997
>> dashboard and some of that stuff.

00:33:16.080 --> 00:33:18.077
everything else. You know, it's got a

00:33:18.160 --> 00:33:21.197
Art Morrison chassis on it and coilover

00:33:21.280 --> 00:33:24.397
springs and disc brakes and

00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:29.677
supercharger. It's got an LS engine in it.
That thing is uh there's nothing

00:33:29.760 --> 00:33:33.437
about that that's an old car.
>> That's a I got to tell you, that's that

00:33:33.520 --> 00:33:37.197
yours is the prettiest Corvette I've seen.
And when I first saw that one, I

00:33:37.280 --> 00:33:40.077
was like, man, I didn't think
anybody could beat me in the Corvette

00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:44.637
department. But that >> that thing's
a dream boat. When I first

00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:47.917
saw it, I was like, "Oh shit." When I
first saw it, it was a lot different. I

00:33:48.000 --> 00:33:49.917
brought it to my friend Steve Stro. When

00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:51.837
I first saw it, it had the grossest

00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:55.357
interior. It had a It had cheap Corvette

00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:58.557
bucket seats from like a maybe like a C4

00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:00.477
Corvette or a C5. They were terrible

00:34:00.560 --> 00:34:03.437
seats. And the interior sucked. And the

00:34:03.520 --> 00:34:07.437
this the shifter sucked. And uh it was a

00:34:07.520 --> 00:34:10.717
little underpowered. It didn't have
the uh supercharger in it. I brought it to

00:34:10.800 --> 00:34:14.237
Steve's trope, but it did have
the chassis. And so we upgraded the

00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:18.477
suspension and then he upgraded
everything else and re completely redid

00:34:18.560 --> 00:34:22.797
the interior and put like really solid
bucket seats that grip you and yeah

00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:26.957
wider tire and brake set up and we
got those cool wheels. Those wheels are

00:34:27.040 --> 00:34:30.797
sick. >> Yeah, those
really set it off. Yeah.

00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:34.957
>> Show a photo of that, Jamie. There's
a photo of me with Jay Leno when I did Jay

00:34:35.040 --> 00:34:38.077
Leno's garage with it. The wheels are
controversial. People either love them

00:34:38.160 --> 00:34:39.757
or they hate them. I [__] love them.

00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:43.837
I think it just I wouldn't like them
on I don't think on many cars, but on that

00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:46.237
car, it's like the perfect wheel for it.

00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:49.437
>> What's that green car?
I saw you driving out last night.

00:34:49.520 --> 00:34:51.037
>> Yeah, that's that's my other Corvette.

00:34:51.120 --> 00:34:52.477
>> Oh, yeah. Look at that son
of [clears throat] a [__]

00:34:52.560 --> 00:34:54.237
>> Look at that. Those wheels rule, dude.

00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:56.797
>> Those are [__] bad ass wheels, man.

00:34:56.880 --> 00:34:59.117
>> They rule for that car. That thing is

00:34:59.200 --> 00:35:02.237
sick. So, that was all red. The stripe

00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:06.477
was red. Steve Stro turned it black and >>
did the wheels and did everything. He

00:35:06.560 --> 00:35:10.317
really tuned it in nice where it's
just dialed in. Yeah, that's badass.

00:35:10.400 --> 00:35:14.477
>> It's so fun, man. That's me and Jay
tooling down. He's the only other guy

00:35:14.560 --> 00:35:15.997
that's driven it other than me.

00:35:16.080 --> 00:35:19.437
>> That thing's fun.
And again, it weighs nothing.

00:35:19.520 --> 00:35:24.397
>> It's probably got 550 horsepower
now >> with the supercharger.

00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:27.437
>> Yeah, I won't let anybody drive
mine, but I'll let you drive it.

00:35:27.520 --> 00:35:29.517
>> All right. >> But, uh, >> let's go.
Well, you know, we're setting

00:35:29.600 --> 00:35:31.917
up a studio at the track. >> A what?

00:35:32.000 --> 00:35:34.957
>> We're setting up another
studio at the racetrack.

00:35:35.040 --> 00:35:39.037
>> Oh, yeah. You told me about that.
like [__] at the races of a couple years

00:35:39.120 --> 00:35:40.717
ago or whatever it was.

00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:43.917
>> Uh sometime around like Novemberish,

00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:46.557
we'll start doing podcasts out of there.

00:35:46.640 --> 00:35:50.157
>> Hope to get it done right around
the time Formula 1 is in town. That'd be

00:35:50.240 --> 00:35:53.997
fun. So I can get some drivers
on and do some podcasts from there.

00:35:54.080 --> 00:35:56.877
>> But uh so we'll be able

00:35:56.960 --> 00:36:01.277
to some of them both places. So we'll
be able to go around the track, take guys

00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:03.997
around the track, take people that have
never been around the track. And I what

00:36:04.080 --> 00:36:07.517
I want to do is like bring in car
companies like so you know Mustang has

00:36:07.600 --> 00:36:10.477
this new dark horse Mustang crazy 600

00:36:10.560 --> 00:36:14.957
horsepower crazy Mustang like let's let
people drive it. You want to sell some

00:36:15.040 --> 00:36:19.117
Mustangs? Let these guys drive it just
for funsies. We'll take some pictures

00:36:19.200 --> 00:36:23.677
and then we'll do a podcast. Talk some
[__] you know, with whatever musicians,

00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:27.277
comics people. >> Yeah. >> And then,
you know, have fun on the racetrack.

00:36:27.360 --> 00:36:30.637
>> Yeah. We see a ton of those guys out
of Driftwood out of my golf course. A lot

00:36:30.720 --> 00:36:34.557
of those guys are golfers and they all
go out there [clears throat] and uh and

00:36:34.640 --> 00:36:35.997
play golf whenever they're in town.

00:36:36.080 --> 00:36:39.997
>> Oh, I'm sure. Race car driving
and golfing. I I you know, I really wish I

00:36:40.080 --> 00:36:43.277
could get into golf and I probably will
someday. I probably will. I'll probably

00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:45.277
be forced into it.
>> It's a lot like lot like lot like lot

00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:45.917
like lot like lot like lot like lot like
lot like lot like lot like lot like like

00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:50.157
shooting a bow >> in that.
>> Don't Don't tell me that cuz then I'll

00:36:50.240 --> 00:36:51.357
then I can't do it.

00:36:51.440 --> 00:36:54.797
>> Yeah. I mean in that in that you never

00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:58.957
do the exact same thing twice. you know,
there's the shots going to be either

00:36:59.040 --> 00:37:02.317
further or shorter or the wind's going
to be coming from some other way or

00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:07.037
whatever. So, you're it's you really
have to and the the big difference is

00:37:07.120 --> 00:37:11.037
when you [__] a bow or whatever you call
it, uh that's where all the power is,

00:37:11.120 --> 00:37:14.157
right? It's all it's it's already
in there. It's built in. You don't have to

00:37:14.240 --> 00:37:18.077
generate it now, >> right?
>> You just aim it. But golf, you have to

00:37:18.160 --> 00:37:20.557
generate all the power with your body.

00:37:20.640 --> 00:37:23.197
Yeah. And which is hard to learn how to

00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:27.597
do. Well, I watch Jamie. I watch Jamie
do it all the time. You ever seen Jamie

00:37:27.680 --> 00:37:30.877
whack a ball? >> That [__]
dude can get some distance.

00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:32.877
Jamie can Jamie can whack a ball.

00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:35.037
>> Jamie, you want to come out
to Driftwood and play golf with me?

00:37:35.120 --> 00:37:36.397
>> I'd love to play at Driftwood.

00:37:36.480 --> 00:37:39.757
>> Huh? >> Driftwood's a great place.
I'd love to play there anytime. [laughter]

00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:41.117
>> Well, I'll take you out there.

00:37:41.200 --> 00:37:44.237
>> You got the dude can
What's your furthest drive?

00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:48.397
>> Oh, I mean it does. It's all dependent,
but I've hit it over 300 yards, which

00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:50.077
isn't that important as Ron would know.

00:37:50.160 --> 00:37:53.677
It's all about what hole you're hitting
it on and is it like, you know, is it

00:37:53.760 --> 00:37:55.357
worth it hitting the 300
yards in that hole?

00:37:55.440 --> 00:37:58.397
>> Yeah. How far can you drive a ball?

00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:03.037
>> Uh, you know,
I hit the ball I 235, 240,

00:38:03.120 --> 00:38:05.757
something like that. But, you know, if I

00:38:05.840 --> 00:38:10.157
really get into one, I catch the sweet
spot, you know, maybe 255, which is

00:38:10.240 --> 00:38:12.717
nothing compared to 300. But you find a

00:38:12.800 --> 00:38:17.197
70-year-old dude that can do it, then uh
>> What is like an elite golfer? Like the

00:38:17.280 --> 00:38:19.597
best driver? What how far are they? I'd

00:38:19.680 --> 00:38:23.597
be Rory Mroy probably at about 325

00:38:23.680 --> 00:38:27.997
average. Uh, so 100 yards.
They hit the ball 100

00:38:28.080 --> 00:38:31.917
yards further than me. I played with uh
>> Jamie, you're only 25 yards off of some

00:38:32.000 --> 00:38:35.837
of the best golfers. >> No, no, no.
That's not how I would even word it.

00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:37.357
>> You're in the middle of the fairway.

00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:40.237
>> You're saying like how far have I
ever hit it, which is what I'm answering.

00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:43.677
It's not how far do I hit it, which
is like your average. Would you take out

00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:45.597
your top your tops? Take out your lows.

00:38:45.680 --> 00:38:47.117
I see what you're saying.
>> What's your average?

00:38:47.200 --> 00:38:48.717
>> Well, that's very humble of you. Well,

00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:54.717
I'd be bragging my ass off 300 yards,
[__] I'm on a shirt made it [__]

00:38:54.800 --> 00:38:58.637
hat. >> I'm on their ass.
>> I'm going to hit 320. Have you seen

00:38:58.720 --> 00:39:00.157
those guys that go to those driving

00:39:00.240 --> 00:39:03.117
ranges and they have these crazy swings

00:39:03.200 --> 00:39:05.677
where like they like completely spin and

00:39:05.760 --> 00:39:10.717
then rotate their body. They do almost
like do a 180 and then smash it. And

00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:14.317
>> those guys is it's got
to be way over 300 yards.

00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:16.397
>> They're sometimes
500 yards in some cases.

00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:19.677
>> That's crazy. They're using specialized
equipment. They're playing in a

00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:23.757
specialized place. >> Yeah. But they
still can't play the game of golf.

00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:25.517
>> Right. >> That's different.
Right. Right.

00:39:25.600 --> 00:39:28.237
>> Or usually. I mean, they usually
they'll make might maybe be a two or three

00:39:28.320 --> 00:39:30.557
handicap. They'll be
decent at golf, >> right?

00:39:30.640 --> 00:39:35.357
>> But they but the the elite guys, they
can't they can't touch them in the game,

00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:37.597
you know. >> Yeah.
There's a there's a similarity in

00:39:37.680 --> 00:39:39.197
pool and that's the break shot.

00:39:39.280 --> 00:39:43.117
>> This guy's the current >> 579y.

00:39:43.200 --> 00:39:46.877
>> Jesus, Kyle. >> Yeah. That's insane.

00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:49.387
>> He's swinging really hard.
>> [__] half a mile, isn't it?

00:39:49.470 --> 00:39:53.037
[laughter] >> It is.
>> This isn't even like [screaming]

00:39:53.120 --> 00:39:55.597
>> 425. This is on a course.
He's probably got a 31.

00:39:55.680 --> 00:39:57.437
>> Oh my god. He's a big dude.

00:39:57.520 --> 00:40:00.157
>> He's also playing out. And he's getting
a little bit of help with elevation out

00:40:00.240 --> 00:40:02.877
there. You can tell he's out
in the mountains, >> right?

00:40:02.960 --> 00:40:05.197
>> A little Wow. >> A little help.
But that's what you want.

00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:07.837
You want to hit it on the green.
That's kind of what's way more important.

00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:09.837
>> 410 yards if you can do that.

00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:14.477
>> That's bonkers. That's bonk. Wait
till some of those like super athlete NFL

00:40:14.560 --> 00:40:17.597
players get involved in golf.
>> LeBron's got involved recently.

00:40:17.680 --> 00:40:20.717
>> Oh god. >> And he started
a YouTube channel, but

00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:25.277
his uh he obviously doesn't have a ton
of time to play. He's busy, but his

00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:28.157
growth in the year he's
played is pretty remarkable.

00:40:28.240 --> 00:40:30.157
>> Of course, he's he's a super athlete.

00:40:30.240 --> 00:40:33.517
Same with Justin Gate. >> Yeah.
I mean, he's he's really good to

00:40:33.600 --> 00:40:34.797
start, but he's played forever.

00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:36.557
>> Justin? >> Yeah.
He's I think Didn't he say he took

00:40:36.640 --> 00:40:39.437
six months off or three months off
and played every single day? Well, what

00:40:39.520 --> 00:40:42.477
happened was when he got uh hurt
in the Max Hawway fight. Yeah.

00:40:42.560 --> 00:40:46.717
>> He did he didn't do nothing for like
a long time and he just let his body heal,

00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:51.037
let his brain heal and he played golf
every day for like a year. And DC was

00:40:51.120 --> 00:40:55.677
saying like, "Dude, he got so [__] good."
Like, and but of course, he's an

00:40:55.760 --> 00:40:58.397
athlete. >> Like,
if you're a world champion MMA

00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:02.637
fighter, you can kind of do anything if
you set your mind to it. He could play

00:41:02.720 --> 00:41:05.517
golf. He could he could skateboard.
He could do whatever the [__] you want.

00:41:05.600 --> 00:41:09.197
Because those guys also are
ridiculously flexible, right?

00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:11.997
>> He's not that flexible.
He's loose though.

00:41:12.080 --> 00:41:15.037
>> That's kind of matter. That's what
matters more. I mean, I went to stretch

00:41:15.120 --> 00:41:18.957
zone today, you know? That's where I go
to >> You go to stretch zone. Do you go to

00:41:19.040 --> 00:41:22.477
someone stretches you?
>> It's the best thing [laughter] in the

00:41:22.560 --> 00:41:27.917
world, man. It's It's kind of resistant
stretching, which it takes an hour

00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:30.797
>> and they just have you on a table
and they're just bending you around. And

00:41:30.880 --> 00:41:35.437
boy, you can play some golf when you get
off of that. Nothing frees up your lower

00:41:35.520 --> 00:41:38.157
back. You got to be able to >>
How many people are doing it?

00:41:38.240 --> 00:41:40.477
>> Just one person. >> One guy
just holding you down and twisting.

00:41:40.560 --> 00:41:42.077
>> They've also got
straps where they strap

00:41:42.160 --> 00:41:44.637
you to the table so they I
mean they can do things to you

00:41:44.720 --> 00:41:45.677
>> that you can't do to yourself.

00:41:45.760 --> 00:41:48.077
>> You can't you you just can't
get that kind of stretch in.

00:41:48.160 --> 00:41:52.157
>> Interesting. >> And I I
I [__] love the place. And it

00:41:52.240 --> 00:41:54.637
seems like And it's never busy. And it

00:41:54.720 --> 00:41:59.277
seems like that uh that cuz every there
tons of old guys out there playing golf.

00:41:59.360 --> 00:42:03.917
Every one of them should be on that table
and it it do it fixes everything.

00:42:04.000 --> 00:42:07.997
>> Do you do anything to work out to like
strengthen your body other than playing

00:42:08.080 --> 00:42:13.037
golf? >> No. >> You should probably
do like a light kettle bell routine.

00:42:13.120 --> 00:42:17.437
>> Nothing to do a kettle bell, but maybe
some some some rubber bands or something.

00:42:17.520 --> 00:42:19.597
>> Kettle bells are not hard,
man. You don't have to be

00:42:19.680 --> 00:42:22.637
>> I've seen video of you doing it.
It looked like it would break me in half.

00:42:22.720 --> 00:42:24.877
>> Yeah, but you don't have to do
that weight. You could do a real light

00:42:24.960 --> 00:42:28.557
weight. A light weight is a great workout.
Sometimes I do like if I'm not

00:42:28.640 --> 00:42:32.637
feeling that good, I'll do a just
a routine that I do with a 35 lb kettle

00:42:32.720 --> 00:42:36.637
bell just to if I just I just want
to break a sweat. I don't want to really

00:42:36.720 --> 00:42:39.197
exert myself, but I want movement and I

00:42:39.280 --> 00:42:44.157
want my tissue to loosen up. I'll do
a whole routine with a 35 lb kettle bell.

00:42:44.240 --> 00:42:46.477
>> Yeah, there's no doubt
about it. I should do more.

00:42:46.560 --> 00:42:48.077
>> It would be great
for your golf, though.

00:42:48.160 --> 00:42:51.997
There's a lot of things you do like
rotational twists, things that would be

00:42:52.080 --> 00:42:53.997
really good for just generating force

00:42:54.080 --> 00:42:57.117
with your drive and and just control of

00:42:57.200 --> 00:42:59.517
your body, just overall body control.

00:42:59.600 --> 00:43:02.397
>> Yeah, I know that I lost I lost some

00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:04.157
muscle when I was just losing weight

00:43:04.240 --> 00:43:07.117
with uh with those or whatever it was.

00:43:07.200 --> 00:43:11.597
And uh so I know I could get boring.
I know that the the whole secret to me

00:43:11.680 --> 00:43:15.917
getting to be 80 and still mobile
is leg strength. And uh >> yeah,

00:43:16.000 --> 00:43:19.757
>> and I was really kind of impressed
with myself in Switzerland cuz I I I was

00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:22.957
getting around pretty good,
you know, cuz I' I've do,

00:43:23.040 --> 00:43:26.717
>> you know, I do uh whatever testosterone

00:43:26.800 --> 00:43:30.557
and human growth and all that kind
of stuff. So, it does make my muscles

00:43:30.640 --> 00:43:34.317
stronger cuz I was I was doing thing I'm
like there's no way I get up to the top

00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:37.997
of that thing and I just chug on up
there out of breath, but my legs are

00:43:38.080 --> 00:43:40.717
fine, you know? >> Yeah.
It makes your your body behave

00:43:40.800 --> 00:43:44.397
like a younger body. That's the whole key.
People miss out on that because

00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:48.077
they're afraid of the stigma attached
to taking testosterone. Like look, your

00:43:48.160 --> 00:43:51.597
body doesn't make it anymore. When your
body makes it, you feel better. Get all

00:43:51.680 --> 00:43:53.517
this ideological [__] out of your head.

00:43:53.600 --> 00:43:57.277
Especially like a lot of my like
left-wing friends are very adverse to

00:43:57.360 --> 00:44:00.637
the idea of taking testosterone.
Like look, you don't have to take a lot of

00:44:00.720 --> 00:44:02.317
it. It's not it's not what we're saying.

00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:05.677
We're not saying get on steroids. What
we're saying is bring your body back to

00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:09.117
levels that it had like when you were
30 and you'll feel so much better. Your

00:44:09.200 --> 00:44:13.037
immune system will work better. You'll
sleep better. Look, I mean, just look at

00:44:13.120 --> 00:44:14.957
me. The difference from when I came to

00:44:15.040 --> 00:44:18.957
Austin and you came to Austin and uh and

00:44:19.040 --> 00:44:20.797
uh and then I was still drinking really,

00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:24.477
really hard and ridiculously hard. And

00:44:24.560 --> 00:44:29.037
uh but I was 30 lbs heavier and uh

00:44:29.120 --> 00:44:33.197
sluggish. I never felt good. And uh and

00:44:33.280 --> 00:44:37.597
today just after you know just doing
going to ways the well and you know

00:44:37.680 --> 00:44:40.077
taking all that stuff and I got to tell

00:44:40.160 --> 00:44:42.237
you I feel better than I have in [__]

00:44:42.320 --> 00:44:46.317
ever. Uh I am just [clears throat]

00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:50.877
I think that that everything in my life
is is stronger than it was then. I mean

00:44:50.960 --> 00:44:53.037
I think the standup's even
stronger you know because

00:44:53.120 --> 00:44:55.677
>> I think it is too.
I think you add on to

00:44:55.760 --> 00:44:57.437
that like a little bit of weightlifting.

00:44:57.520 --> 00:45:00.957
I don't mean anything crazy. And one
of the best things you could do is what's

00:45:01.040 --> 00:45:04.877
called a farmer's carry. Just get
a couple dumbbells and just walk. You can

00:45:04.960 --> 00:45:08.317
walk around your property. You can walk
around your street, you know, walk. I do

00:45:08.400 --> 00:45:11.677
like a couple hundred yards and then
a couple hundred yards back. I go up a

00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:14.797
hill and then I go down a hill.
The whole thing takes me like 15 minutes.

00:45:14.880 --> 00:45:19.117
It's phenomenal for your body.
Like carrying things like carrying heavy

00:45:19.200 --> 00:45:22.957
things is really good for you, man. It's
great for your grip strength. It's great

00:45:23.040 --> 00:45:27.117
for your back, your core, like everything.
Everything felt like like

00:45:27.200 --> 00:45:31.437
right when I first started doing it,
my body was like, "Oh yeah, do more of

00:45:31.520 --> 00:45:33.997
this." It's like like intuitively I was

00:45:34.080 --> 00:45:38.477
like, "Oh, this is tying everything
together." Like moving weight around, I

00:45:38.560 --> 00:45:41.277
think is very important. Not just
standing there and like pressing and

00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:45.277
doing stuff like in stationary.
I think there's some real benefit in like

00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:49.277
walking with stuff because you got to
balance it. It's heavy and you're moving

00:45:49.360 --> 00:45:52.397
around. Your grip gets tired and you
have to set it down and then you [__]

00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:55.677
>> How much weight are
you carrying? 200 yards.

00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:59.277
>> 140 lb. >> Oh, [__] dude.
[laughter] >> Two. But you

00:45:59.360 --> 00:46:02.077
>> still have two little
weights in your hands.

00:46:02.160 --> 00:46:05.437
>> Well, these the kettle This might be
a different time you saw me, but I don't

00:46:05.520 --> 00:46:08.077
think there's any video of me doing that.
But these kettle bells, they're

00:46:08.160 --> 00:46:12.237
each 70 lbs. So, I have one in each hand.
So, it's 140 lbs total. And I'm

00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:16.557
walking up this hill and then I'm
walking down the hill. And I do it every

00:46:16.640 --> 00:46:20.557
other day. It's phenomenal.
>> And then you work out every single day.

00:46:20.640 --> 00:46:25.357
>> Yeah. Every every day. Every day I do
something. have to do something just for

00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:27.997
sanity. >> Yeah.
I guess if you're not moving

00:46:28.080 --> 00:46:32.077
forward, you're moving backwards. And the
>> I just want to maintain and and also

00:46:32.160 --> 00:46:34.077
sanity. The real thing is sanity. The

00:46:34.160 --> 00:46:37.277
world's nuts. Like one great way to like

00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:39.517
alleviate some of the pressure of paying

00:46:39.600 --> 00:46:42.317
attention to how nuts the world is. Is

00:46:42.400 --> 00:46:46.637
do something really hard. Do a hard
workout. Do a yoga class. Do something

00:46:46.720 --> 00:46:50.077
difficult. Just something that takes you
out of it for a minute and just relaxes

00:46:50.160 --> 00:46:52.477
you. >> Yeah.
I'd like to get back into yoga

00:46:52.560 --> 00:46:54.637
again. I did that for a while
and that was so good for you.

00:46:54.720 --> 00:46:55.997
>> One of the best things I bet for golf.

00:46:56.080 --> 00:47:00.157
>> Oh yeah, it is. No doubt about it.
Then you'll play forever. Just

00:47:00.240 --> 00:47:03.917
>> do yoga. I had this hot little yoga
instructor come over to my house and it

00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:08.397
was just a great way to just [__]
start the day. And I did it every day.

00:47:08.480 --> 00:47:11.037
>> What happened? >> Well,
other girlfriends didn't like her

00:47:11.120 --> 00:47:15.917
cuz she was hot. I'm like, I don't know,
but I'm willing to fade all the heat

00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:20.877
>> just for some yoga where all my motives
suck anyway. I just wanted to be near

00:47:20.960 --> 00:47:23.837
the >> There's something
very hot about yoga

00:47:23.920 --> 00:47:26.317
ladies, too. Like a really good one.

00:47:26.400 --> 00:47:29.437
>> Yeah. >> Yeah. So,
and I'm going to get back into

00:47:29.520 --> 00:47:34.157
something. We met a a female trainer the
other day that's friends with John Paul

00:47:34.240 --> 00:47:39.037
and Eloise and uh so we're going to hire
her to start coming over to the house.

00:47:39.120 --> 00:47:40.797
>> Oh, there you go. That's a good move.

00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:44.797
>> Start start working. Yeah,
because I'll I'll I'll do more

00:47:44.880 --> 00:47:48.237
>> with a with a woman. >> Really?
Just to show her that you can do

00:47:48.320 --> 00:47:52.777
it. you know, just just I don't know.
I just show up for it if it's warm,

00:47:52.860 --> 00:47:56.797
[laughter] you know, for some [__] reason.

weak other than an injury, other than
something that's wrong with you. the

00:49:15.200 --> 00:49:20.077
it's out of your control. There's no
reason no reason to just be weak. You

>> That's what I'm saying, dog.

00:49:35.360 --> 00:49:37.517
>> How come people are
ragging on our club, man?

00:49:37.600 --> 00:49:41.837
>> Who's ragging on our club?
>> I was watching on TikTok. People that

00:49:41.920 --> 00:49:45.997
goddamn mothership. It's a walled garden.
Someone warned me about that a

00:49:46.080 --> 00:49:49.517
long time ago. This philosopher guy that I
know. He said, "You got to be careful

00:49:49.600 --> 00:49:52.157
because like it looks like you guys
are having too much fun and other people

00:49:52.240 --> 00:49:56.077
can't get in and they feel like it's
a walled garden. They want to [__] on it."

00:49:56.160 --> 00:49:58.557
You know, the thing is like people like,
"Why?" Because we're all friends in

00:49:58.640 --> 00:50:02.477
there. It's cuz like it's
a very intimate group of friends

00:50:02.560 --> 00:50:05.117
>> and we don't know when somebody else
is gonna come in there and listen to us

00:50:05.200 --> 00:50:09.917
[__] and then go jammer
away to some [__] else. So,

00:50:10.000 --> 00:50:13.517
>> or get upset at some of the things
that someone says, cuz some people say

00:50:13.600 --> 00:50:16.237
horrible things in that room, don't
even mean it cuz it's funny, right?

00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:17.517
>> They say it to be funny. Yeah.

00:50:17.600 --> 00:50:19.437
>> And then there's
I've seen some of that.

00:50:19.520 --> 00:50:22.077
One of >> one of the
things that I've seen is

00:50:22.160 --> 00:50:26.957
people that are talking about like
the kind of comedy that they're they hear

00:50:27.040 --> 00:50:30.957
there. And what they're talking about
is Brian Holtzman. And they were talking

00:50:31.040 --> 00:50:35.437
about this guy. He's yelling
about gay people like like you

00:50:35.520 --> 00:50:39.757
hold on. You're talking about Brian
Holtzman. like that. What that is is

00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:41.677
like the comedy version of death metal.

00:50:41.760 --> 00:50:44.957
Okay, death metal. People some people
like death metal. Like you don't have to

00:50:45.040 --> 00:50:47.037
like death metal >> and you don't
have to watch it or listen to it.

00:50:47.120 --> 00:50:50.237
>> You might be into
opera, but that guy is

00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:54.797
[__] hilarious. And offstage,
the sweetest, nicest guy you ever met,

00:50:54.880 --> 00:50:57.837
>> nicest person there is.
>> On stage, he becomes this [__]

00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:00.237
maniac. But it's a it's like satire.

00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:02.557
It's on purpose. It's not a real person.

00:51:02.640 --> 00:51:04.717
>> Yeah. It took me a while to get it.

00:51:04.800 --> 00:51:07.757
>> It's brilliant. He's one of the best
comics alive. He's one of the funniest

00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:11.677
guys I know. Like, he's [__] hilarious.
Is it offensive? 100%. Yeah.

00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:14.527
Some of the things he's going to say
are will offend the [__] out of you.

00:51:14.610 --> 00:51:16.397
[laughter] They will
offend the [__] out of you.

00:51:16.480 --> 00:51:18.557
They offend me. I'm like, Jesus Christ,

00:51:18.640 --> 00:51:23.517
Holtzman. But you got to leave room for
that. There's always got to be room for

00:51:23.600 --> 00:51:24.797
everything. There's room for everything.

00:51:24.880 --> 00:51:27.997
And if it doesn't work, the people won't
laugh. And if they don't laugh, he won't

00:51:28.080 --> 00:51:31.197
come back. >> You know,
after a while, that's it. You

00:51:31.280 --> 00:51:36.077
But he they laugh. We laugh hard. And you
you you could say this is awful that

00:51:36.160 --> 00:51:39.917
they're laughing at that and you got
a point, >> but that's not what it is,

00:51:40.000 --> 00:51:43.597
>> right? No, I I'm telling you, I didn't
get it at first and because I saw him

00:51:43.680 --> 00:51:45.917
eat it one time and I was like because

00:51:46.000 --> 00:51:47.837
he can, you know, he can he can find a

00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:53.597
crowd that's tough. U but uh >>
that can happen. But a lot of now he's

00:51:53.680 --> 00:51:55.997
got his own crowd. >> Yeah.
His own crowd they're they're looking for.

00:51:56.080 --> 00:51:58.877
>> The other thing that people keep saying
is that it's like a right-wing club. The

00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:02.157
vast majority of the people that are
in that club, working in that club are

00:52:02.240 --> 00:52:05.037
leftwing. That's crazy talk. People just

00:52:05.120 --> 00:52:09.517
assume because of they connect Tony, you
know, and people also connect me to that

00:52:09.600 --> 00:52:14.077
when I don't I think I mostly think
that's cuz they don't know me. But and I

00:52:14.160 --> 00:52:18.477
because I look rightwing and because I did
kind of help Trump, but other than that

00:52:18.560 --> 00:52:22.717
>> other [laughter] than that,
>> you think that might be what I've been

00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:27.517
leftwing my whole life. But yeah, well,
I know you have very left-wing views on

00:52:27.600 --> 00:52:30.637
a lot of [__] things. And >> I
have very leftwing views on a lot of

00:52:30.720 --> 00:52:33.917
things, but I also recognize when um

00:52:34.000 --> 00:52:38.237
government is taking over our lives. And

00:52:38.320 --> 00:52:42.157
uh what we were sold with the Trump
administration would be that would end

00:52:42.240 --> 00:52:46.317
and you know there'd be a drain the swamp.
Obviously, it's not been ideal

00:52:46.400 --> 00:52:49.917
like in that regard. >> Well,
I think it's Yeah. Well, you you

00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:51.277
know how I feel about it. A lot of

00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:55.837
people laugh. I mean, I'm I'm left of of

00:52:55.920 --> 00:52:59.117
certainly left of some of it and uh but

00:52:59.200 --> 00:53:02.477
I also carry a weapon and I believe in

00:53:02.560 --> 00:53:06.877
the death penalty and you know I but for

00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:08.797
the most part

00:53:08.880 --> 00:53:12.637
you know I I'm a left-leaning faction in

00:53:12.720 --> 00:53:17.277
the green room you know I mean >>
you and Brian Simpson Brian Simpson's

00:53:17.360 --> 00:53:21.357
very left too but you know Tonyy's the
only one who's like on the right Tony's

00:53:21.440 --> 00:53:27.597
like legitimately rightwing yeah He's
MAGA. That's kind of Well, I guess I

00:53:27.680 --> 00:53:29.837
don't know. >> I don't even
know if you would say that,

00:53:29.920 --> 00:53:32.237
but he's like pretty openly rightwing to

00:53:32.320 --> 00:53:34.717
the point of me and him argue about

00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:37.837
leftwing, right-wing stuff all the time.

00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:41.677
>> But it's like the problem is not
leftwing, right-wing. The problem is

00:53:41.760 --> 00:53:43.917
like rational and insane. >> Yeah.

00:53:44.000 --> 00:53:46.077
>> Like the open borders was insane.

00:53:46.160 --> 00:53:49.037
>> That was horrible [__] a horrible

00:53:49.120 --> 00:53:53.277
[__] [clears throat] move. The COVID
mandates were insane. Forcing people to

00:53:53.360 --> 00:53:56.797
get vaccinated was insane.
All that stuff was insane.

00:53:56.880 --> 00:53:58.317
>> That stuff scared the [__] out of me.

00:53:58.400 --> 00:54:01.037
The censorship online was insane. All

00:54:01.120 --> 00:54:04.077
all the woke nonsense forcing you to use

00:54:04.160 --> 00:54:08.637
pronouns and forcing you to never dead
name someone or you get kicked off of

00:54:08.720 --> 00:54:10.077
Twitter for life. There was so much

00:54:10.160 --> 00:54:12.957
insanity that we needed some sort of a

00:54:13.040 --> 00:54:17.197
break moving away from that. And that
was that was my position. I was like,

00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:20.317
"This is going to continue." Cuz like
obviously Biden was not really the

00:54:20.400 --> 00:54:24.237
president for four years, right? So
the people that were all were running the

00:54:24.320 --> 00:54:27.837
country will continue to be running
the country. These non-elected people, it

00:54:27.920 --> 00:54:31.757
wouldn't be him. And then when she's in,
it would be the same [__] people. Be

00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:35.357
the same people I voted for.
>> I bet you did.

00:54:35.440 --> 00:54:40.077
>> I did. And because I wouldn't vote for
Trump. And And also they were, you know,

00:54:40.160 --> 00:54:43.037
going after women's rights. Well,
I'm going to side with the women because I

00:54:43.120 --> 00:54:47.277
don't like any candidate, but I'm going
to vote. And and then the women didn't

00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:51.357
go and they left me out there like
a dumbass holding my dick going, "Well,

00:54:51.440 --> 00:54:54.797
where were we all?" >> When you say
women's rights, you mean abortion, right?

00:54:54.880 --> 00:54:58.157
>> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah.
Because I mean I I'm going to be a

00:54:58.240 --> 00:55:01.757
grandfather in uh few months.
I don't know if you knew that or not, but

00:55:01.840 --> 00:55:03.997
>> Congratulations. >> Huh?
Yeah. [clears throat] I'm so

00:55:04.080 --> 00:55:05.917
[__] excited about it. Mhm.

00:55:06.000 --> 00:55:10.477
>> And uh I mean I
it's just uh I mean it's

00:55:10.560 --> 00:55:13.917
happening a little late in life for me,
but you know now I'm looking like well

00:55:14.000 --> 00:55:17.117
if I play my cards right and I live
as long as my mother did, I can I can see

00:55:17.200 --> 00:55:19.437
this kid through [__] high school.

00:55:19.520 --> 00:55:21.357
>> The the abortion
rights thing is a weird

00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:25.917
one. You know, it's like I don't think
I have a right to tell anybody what to do

00:55:26.000 --> 00:55:29.677
with their body. I'm not a woman. I've
never been pregnant. I have no idea what

00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:32.797
that's like. I have no idea where some
guy gets you pregnant and it takes off

00:55:32.880 --> 00:55:37.917
and you got to make a decision
and it's or there's medical issues

00:55:38.000 --> 00:55:39.597
>> coming up. It should be between a a

00:55:39.680 --> 00:55:41.117
family and their doctor.

00:55:41.200 --> 00:55:45.517
>> Yeah. I have so I really I can't say

00:55:45.600 --> 00:55:48.797
anything but there's a weirdness to like

00:55:48.880 --> 00:55:52.557
late term abortions. And I know most
people say late term abortions are only

00:55:52.640 --> 00:55:55.757
in the case where it threatens the
mother's life and no one really wants to

00:55:55.840 --> 00:55:59.677
do that. I know someone who got a late
term abortion in New York and it was

00:55:59.760 --> 00:56:02.397
just cuz the boyfriend didn't want
to have the baby and they waited too long

00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:05.597
and she was pregnant. It and it scared

00:56:05.680 --> 00:56:09.437
the [__] out of me. I'm like,
you guys just killed a baby.

00:56:09.520 --> 00:56:12.797
>> Um, I'm not saying that happens all the
time, but I'm saying just the fact that

00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:17.197
that can happen scares the [__] out of me.

00:56:17.280 --> 00:56:20.237
>> Um, >> well, aren't
there laws against even I

00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:23.997
mean even before these laws were passed,
weren't there laws saying we not pass

00:56:24.080 --> 00:56:25.597
this? What did they just pass in

00:56:25.680 --> 00:56:27.677
Massachusetts? Didn't they just pass

00:56:27.760 --> 00:56:31.197
some new abortion law in Massachusetts?

00:56:31.280 --> 00:56:33.517
I think that I think the rational

00:56:33.600 --> 00:56:38.317
thinking is that most women would never
want to abort their baby late term,

00:56:38.400 --> 00:56:42.077
right? And if someone's doing that, it
has to be extenduating circumstances and

00:56:42.160 --> 00:56:46.957
that it has to be because of and to
eliminate that possibility and to put

00:56:47.040 --> 00:56:50.637
someone through like life-threatening
situation because they really do need an

00:56:50.720 --> 00:56:53.277
abortion and the law says they can't
have an abortion unless they get some

00:56:53.360 --> 00:56:57.597
exemption. So they have to prove it
and then the right life is at risk. So I

00:56:57.680 --> 00:57:03.960
could see how you would say
we will allow late term ab

00:57:04.400 --> 00:57:06.877
>> Massachusetts expands
abortion access to

00:57:06.960 --> 00:57:09.997
any point during pregnancy. On Monday it

00:57:10.080 --> 00:57:12.397
joined nine states and Washington DC in

00:57:12.480 --> 00:57:14.877
eliminating gestational restrictions on

00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:17.837
abortions. So what does this mean

00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:19.997
exactly? Let's scroll down. I think this

00:57:20.080 --> 00:57:21.917
means anytime during a pregnancy. So

00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:24.957
this means like 8 months, 2 weeks, you

00:57:25.040 --> 00:57:29.037
can get an abortion. Most abortions
happen within the first trimester. Very

00:57:29.120 --> 00:57:32.797
few take place after 24 weeks,
the previous limit for abortion in the Bay

00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:35.677
State. Those that do occur after that

00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:37.837
point often involve situations in which

00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:39.997
doctors discovered a fetal anomaly late

00:57:40.080 --> 00:57:43.117
in the pregnancy. Um, Massachusetts law

00:57:43.200 --> 00:57:47.037
was championed by major medical groups,
including the National Society for

00:57:47.120 --> 00:57:50.877
Maternal Fetal Medicine,
the Massachusetts Medical Society, and the

00:57:50.960 --> 00:57:55.357
state's chapter of the American
College of Obstitric Obstitricians and

00:57:55.440 --> 00:57:59.357
Gynecologists.
The law received support from Kate

00:57:59.440 --> 00:58:01.517
Denine, the abortions rights activist

00:58:01.600 --> 00:58:04.317
whose son died in uterero at 33 weeks.

00:58:04.400 --> 00:58:08.877
Um, what is it saying?

00:58:08.960 --> 00:58:10.397
>> I can go to a different website. I was

00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:14.317
looking at that was

00:58:14.400 --> 00:58:17.437
>> Yeah. So, a lot of people are scared of

00:58:17.520 --> 00:58:20.957
this because you can have an abortion

00:58:21.040 --> 00:58:25.197
like really late when the baby is a baby.

00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:28.717
>> Yeah. Well, I'm, you know, [__] I'm
not for that, but I'm for a women woman's

00:58:28.800 --> 00:58:31.517
right to choose if uh

00:58:31.600 --> 00:58:36.077
uh but for the same reason you just said.
I'm not a woman. I don't know what

00:58:36.160 --> 00:58:38.637
it's like. I don't want
the government involved in my

00:58:38.720 --> 00:58:41.597
>> Well, there's some people that think
even the cases of rape and incest, you

00:58:41.680 --> 00:58:43.437
shouldn't be able to, which is crazy.

00:58:43.520 --> 00:58:46.397
>> Well, right, because then you get to,
if you're a rapist, you get to go, "Oh,

00:58:46.480 --> 00:58:48.317
that's I want that chick
to have my baby." Oh my god.

00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:51.117
>> Oh my god. >> Oh my god.

00:58:51.200 --> 00:58:55.357
>> Oh well, whatever. >> What are
we in the medieval days? In the

00:58:55.440 --> 00:58:56.957
old Viking days.

00:58:57.040 --> 00:58:58.477
>> So, what are we going to do about the

00:58:58.560 --> 00:59:02.877
Texas Senate? Uh, you you you met Ty

00:59:02.960 --> 00:59:05.357
Rico. You like the guy, right? I did

00:59:05.440 --> 00:59:08.637
like him. Uh I like his thoughts on the

00:59:08.720 --> 00:59:12.397
ten commandment in schools in public
schools. I don't think I think he's

00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:16.157
right and he's a very religious guy
and his position is when you put the ten

00:59:16.240 --> 00:59:19.437
commandments in public schools what
you're really doing is you're forcing

00:59:19.520 --> 00:59:21.917
Christianity to them and you're not

00:59:22.000 --> 00:59:26.557
you're not you're probably pushing them
away from Christianity rather than bring

00:59:26.640 --> 00:59:29.997
you're like forcing it on them. And if
you're going to do that, how can you do

00:59:30.080 --> 00:59:33.437
that and not have like u scripture from

00:59:33.520 --> 00:59:36.157
the Hindu text, scripture from the Book

00:59:36.240 --> 00:59:41.517
of Mormon, Muslim, you know, Islamic text?
Why why would why is it just

00:59:41.600 --> 00:59:44.477
>> why isn't there a separation
of church and state? That's a state-run

00:59:44.560 --> 00:59:48.557
organization. And >> yes,
so his position is that, and I

00:59:48.640 --> 00:59:51.917
think you know he's probably right about
this, otherwise he'd get sued, is that

00:59:52.000 --> 00:59:54.077
there's a couple like very wealthy

00:59:54.160 --> 00:59:56.957
people who are Christian nationalists

00:59:57.040 --> 00:59:59.277
and they want to

00:59:59.360 --> 01:00:02.237
>> um take over like the school system and

01:00:02.320 --> 01:00:05.357
turn Texas like completely Christian.

01:00:05.440 --> 01:00:08.157
And uh yeah, I think that's scary. That

01:00:08.240 --> 01:00:10.157
kind of [__] is scary because pushing

01:00:10.240 --> 01:00:12.557
whatever your ideology is. Look, if you

01:00:12.640 --> 01:00:15.197
invite people into your church and you

01:00:15.280 --> 01:00:20.477
know you're a person who is of exemplary
character and you're a wonderful guy and

01:00:20.560 --> 01:00:23.277
there's something about this guy like,
"Wow, this guy, the way he lives his

01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:27.997
life, man, I I really I think he's
really cool and kind. I like to see like

01:00:28.080 --> 01:00:30.877
what this church is all about."
Like that's how you get people to be

01:00:30.960 --> 01:00:33.757
interested in what you're doing
and the way you're promoting life.

01:00:33.840 --> 01:00:36.317
>> You can't be forcefed,
>> but you're forcing it on people. You're

01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:37.997
just going to push them away from it. It

01:00:38.080 --> 01:00:40.957
always happens that way. it you you

01:00:41.040 --> 01:00:43.677
force it. You c you can't decide that

01:00:43.760 --> 01:00:48.557
your way is the way that other people
have to live. That's the whole idea of

01:00:48.640 --> 01:00:52.397
America is you're supposed to have the
freedom to do whatever the [__] you want

01:00:52.480 --> 01:00:54.237
as long as you're not hurting others.

01:00:54.320 --> 01:00:59.357
>> And if you want to believe in whatever
some ancient religion that people gave

01:00:59.440 --> 01:01:01.677
up on thousands of years
ago, who [__] cares?

01:01:01.760 --> 01:01:03.437
>> Yeah. Go ahead. >> Go ahead.

01:01:03.520 --> 01:01:05.677
>> Yeah. I first I I
first noticed him when

01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:09.197
he really came out against that school
voucher program which I was against also

01:01:09.280 --> 01:01:11.037
because I came >> What was that?
Which one was that?

01:01:11.120 --> 01:01:16.317
>> School vouchers uh that that they
and they and he he lost. He he fought so

01:01:16.400 --> 01:01:19.277
hard against it because they wanted
to give school vouchers. So you could take

01:01:19.360 --> 01:01:23.437
this money and go to a private school,
but the only people that were using him

01:01:23.520 --> 01:01:26.717
were people that were already had
their kids in private schools. Most Texas

01:01:26.800 --> 01:01:31.037
counties don't have a private school
and a private school can also decide who

01:01:31.120 --> 01:01:34.397
they want for no reason. they can
eliminate anybody. They'll take a

01:01:34.480 --> 01:01:38.077
student or not take a student. And that
came out of the public school system,

01:01:38.160 --> 01:01:42.077
that money, and went into the private
school system. And and Taler Rico really

01:01:42.160 --> 01:01:46.317
fought hard against that.
>> Uh because we need better teachers. We

01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:51.437
need more teachers. We need the public
school system beefed up. Uh we're we're

01:01:51.520 --> 01:01:55.117
getting the [__] beat out of us in
education. And I think Terico was really

01:01:55.200 --> 01:01:59.117
really good for that. And I think he's
a smart, honest man. I hope he never gets

01:01:59.200 --> 01:02:03.677
sucked into the corruption of all
the money like most people do. But, you

01:02:03.760 --> 01:02:07.917
know, you really can't put Ken Paxton
back in office in the state of Texas.

01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:11.997
That guy's just too corrupt.
You know, he's just

01:02:12.080 --> 01:02:15.277
he's just a bad egg and and we
don't need him around here.

01:02:15.360 --> 01:02:18.877
>> There's a lot of shenanigans
with weed in this state right now

01:02:18.960 --> 01:02:22.237
>> where there's a lot of alcohol lobby
money and a lot of people are trying to

01:02:22.320 --> 01:02:24.717
ban weed and they're
trying to make it a felony.

01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:27.117
>> They did it. >> I know.
But they're fighting they're

01:02:27.200 --> 01:02:30.237
fighting it in court now.
There's a bunch of cases.

01:02:30.320 --> 01:02:31.997
>> It's uh it's really stupid.

01:02:32.080 --> 01:02:36.397
>> It was such a big step backwards, you
know, and I was asking one of these guys

01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:40.237
that owns a head shop, you know, that
that I like, you know, I go in and talk

01:02:40.320 --> 01:02:41.357
to them every once in a while. I don't

01:02:41.440 --> 01:02:43.357
like that Delta 8 or whatever they were

01:02:43.440 --> 01:02:47.917
selling anyway. But but you know,

01:02:48.000 --> 01:02:51.837
but these guys really went all in on these
businesses that were legal and all

01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:56.237
of a sudden, snap, here, here's the stuff
you got to take out. what he got left.

01:02:56.320 --> 01:02:58.557
>> And uh that's really
brutal for somebody

01:02:58.640 --> 01:03:00.717
that really, you know, waited all in.

01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:04.397
>> Billions of dollars
lost thousands of jobs.

01:03:04.480 --> 01:03:06.717
>> And I guess they
burned the weed. That's

01:03:06.800 --> 01:03:10.077
what I asked him. I said, "What?
What'd you do with all that weed?"

01:03:10.160 --> 01:03:13.437
>> Crazy. >> It's also,
look, regulate it and tax it,

01:03:13.520 --> 01:03:17.757
you [__] idiots. You're missing out
on so much money. And also, leave grown

01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:20.397
adults to do whatever they want to do.

01:03:20.480 --> 01:03:24.957
You're not going to convince people
that weed is [__] PCP, okay? You're not.

01:03:25.040 --> 01:03:26.957
This ain't Reef for Madness days, right?

01:03:27.040 --> 01:03:31.037
Everyone's been kind of candy you
throw out there. We know it's [__]

01:03:31.120 --> 01:03:34.557
>> We know what weeded is now. Can you
go crazy if you smoke too much weed? Yeah,

01:03:34.640 --> 01:03:37.837
don't smoke too much weed. Can you go
crazy if you drink too much? Yeah, don't

01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:42.077
drink too much. It's the same goddamn
thing. Don't tell people what to do,

01:03:42.160 --> 01:03:43.677
>> right? >> You don't
have the right. Especially

01:03:43.760 --> 01:03:47.997
when I look at these guys, like,
you guys are dorks. You dorks can't decide

01:03:48.080 --> 01:03:49.997
what other people do and don't do.

01:03:50.080 --> 01:03:54.237
>> And it seems like they, you know, that
that enough of them would have died that

01:03:54.320 --> 01:03:56.397
a [laughter] new set
of faces would come around.

01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:57.517
>> Well, they're going to lose elections.

01:03:57.600 --> 01:04:00.557
I'll tell you that cuz young people
aren't tolerating this [__] anymore.

01:04:00.640 --> 01:04:04.477
Like, this is stupid. And not even young
people. Most people most people realize

01:04:04.560 --> 01:04:08.317
the only way you can come to this
conclusion that there should be laws and

01:04:08.400 --> 01:04:11.677
felonies and people should be locked
in cages for weed is if you are either

01:04:11.760 --> 01:04:13.837
[__] or you're on the take. >> Yeah.

01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:17.517
>> It's one of those two things. Either
you're too [__] stupid to be a leader

01:04:17.600 --> 01:04:19.677
or you're on the take, >> right?

01:04:19.760 --> 01:04:24.317
>> Cuz this is dumb. And also, you're
missing out on so much tax revenue. How

01:04:24.400 --> 01:04:28.477
much does California make in tax revenue?
How much does Colorado make in

01:04:28.560 --> 01:04:30.237
tax revenue? >> A [__] buttload.

01:04:30.320 --> 01:04:33.677
>> A buttload. >> And uh you know,

01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:35.917
even when

01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:39.197
some weed was legal in the in Texas, I

01:04:39.280 --> 01:04:43.597
got mine from Oklahoma anyway. And uh
>> you shouldn't say that online. People,

01:04:43.680 --> 01:04:47.837
they'll come for you. That's probably It's
probably like getting those Cuban cigars,

01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:53.517
>> fake, not real Cuban cigars. What
how much revenue does California uh get

01:04:53.600 --> 01:04:56.157
every year? >> Here's [clears
throat] a state-by-st state breakdown.

01:04:56.240 --> 01:04:59.277
>> Okay. >> And we can put
[snorts] that money in the public.

01:04:59.360 --> 01:05:03.517
>> 7.765 billion

01:05:03.600 --> 01:05:07.197
>> billion dollar. >> Billion dollars.

01:05:07.280 --> 01:05:08.557
>> Wow.

01:05:08.640 --> 01:05:12.077
>> That is [__] crazy. That's so much

01:05:12.160 --> 01:05:15.997
money. They're missing out on $7 billion

01:05:16.080 --> 01:05:19.597
dollar. And they're missing out on how
much did the tax how much did the

01:05:19.680 --> 01:05:22.877
alcohol lobby give you?
Could have been 7 billion.

01:05:22.960 --> 01:05:26.477
>> No, I don't think so. >> So,
somebody is either [__] or corrupt.

01:05:26.560 --> 01:05:30.237
>> Corrupt. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah.
And I I'm so sick of it, you know.

01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:33.517
I'm so sick of it. >> Texas
could be making a shitload of

01:05:33.600 --> 01:05:37.437
revenue with legal marijuana >>
and bring in some goddamn gambling.

01:05:37.520 --> 01:05:42.077
We're sending everybody right across
the border to [__] WinStar. Although I

01:05:42.160 --> 01:05:43.837
work there, so don't quit [laughter]

01:05:43.920 --> 01:05:47.037
going, but uh they they just pour over

01:05:47.120 --> 01:05:51.997
just dump money into Winstar because
casino in the world is about 300 yards

01:05:52.080 --> 01:05:54.477
north of Texas. >> What do
you think about that? Do you

01:05:54.560 --> 01:05:56.237
think that casino should be everywhere?

01:05:56.320 --> 01:05:58.957
And what do you think
about like the argument that

01:05:59.040 --> 01:06:01.917
>> if you're promoting gambling and you
have these casinos, you're going to ruin

01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:05.677
people's lives because you're going
to give them like easy access to something

01:06:05.760 --> 01:06:09.037
that they're addicted to.
They've already got excess with [__]

01:06:09.120 --> 01:06:12.797
DraftKings, you know.
You can you can gamble from anywhere,

01:06:12.880 --> 01:06:17.197
>> but you know, they can still go to
somewhere else and do it. You know, they

01:06:17.280 --> 01:06:20.957
go right across the border, go
to Louisiana, go to or fly into Vegas for

01:06:21.040 --> 01:06:23.677
$79, >> right?
But there's an argument that you

01:06:23.760 --> 01:06:26.877
don't want it in your state. There's
an argument that like if you really care

01:06:26.960 --> 01:06:30.237
about the people in your state, you
would probably make it more difficult to

01:06:30.320 --> 01:06:33.117
go to these casinos.
>> We have horse racing here, right?

01:06:33.200 --> 01:06:35.117
>> Do we? >> Mhm. >> Yeah.
You gamble on that?

01:06:35.200 --> 01:06:37.597
>> Not much. But it's
they moved Riosa down

01:06:37.680 --> 01:06:42.077
to Texas. The races that were in Riosa,
New Mexico or New America.

01:06:42.160 --> 01:06:46.637
>> I remember when uh I was playing pool
in New York, the real gambling junkies,

01:06:46.720 --> 01:06:50.957
they would start their day at offtrack
betting, they would go and gamble on

01:06:51.040 --> 01:06:55.357
horse races and then they would come over
to the pool hall later in the afternoon

01:06:55.440 --> 01:06:58.557
>> and lose the rest of it. >> Yeah.
Or, you know, or have stories

01:06:58.640 --> 01:07:03.277
about how they lost.
That that that's a wild group of folks

01:07:03.360 --> 01:07:05.437
that you were hanging out with in uh in

01:07:05.520 --> 01:07:07.597
in the New York playing pool, wasn't it?

01:07:07.680 --> 01:07:12.717
>> Oh, yeah. Homeless people,
junkies, pool hustlers,

01:07:12.800 --> 01:07:16.637
like some of the wildest people I've
ever met in my life. It was really fun.

01:07:16.720 --> 01:07:19.117
There was this one place that I used
to go to in New York City. It was called

01:07:19.200 --> 01:07:21.757
Chelsea Billiards, and it was a 24-hour

01:07:21.840 --> 01:07:26.797
place. And there regularly you you have
guys that were sleeping under tables

01:07:26.880 --> 01:07:27.917
>> while it was [laughter] open.

01:07:28.000 --> 01:07:29.917
>> Yeah, they because
it was open 24 hours.

01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:33.597
So at night time when they didn't get
games, they would just crawl under a

01:07:33.680 --> 01:07:38.077
table and go to sleep cuz there's
a whole downstairs area that was rarely

01:07:38.160 --> 01:07:39.997
used unless it was like really packed,

01:07:40.080 --> 01:07:43.117
but it was a real pool hall, a real

01:07:43.200 --> 01:07:47.117
24-hour pool hall. I met so many
degenerates there. There's a great book

01:07:47.200 --> 01:07:49.117
about that place. There's a break great

01:07:49.200 --> 01:07:51.837
book uh called Playing Off the Rail by

01:07:51.920 --> 01:07:56.877
this guy David McCumber. Uh he
was Hunter S. Thompson's editor when uh

01:07:56.960 --> 01:08:00.077
Hunter S. Thompson was I think he
was working for a newspaper in the Pacific

01:08:00.160 --> 01:08:02.397
Northwest for a while. But Cumber is a

01:08:02.480 --> 01:08:04.557
very very interesting guy, great writer.

01:08:04.640 --> 01:08:07.837
And he took my friend Tony Anagoni who

01:08:07.920 --> 01:08:11.677
was a worldclass professional pool
player and they traveled around the

01:08:11.760 --> 01:08:13.517
country gambling and wrote this book.

01:08:13.600 --> 01:08:16.877
It's a great book. Really like
really accurate, honest book.

01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:19.997
>> Playing off the rail. >> It's
called Off the Playing Off the Rail

01:08:20.080 --> 01:08:24.477
is the name of the book. >> Okay.
And uh the guy Tony who was a

01:08:24.560 --> 01:08:28.317
friend of mine, I did commentary
with him on a pool match once uh in

01:08:28.400 --> 01:08:32.717
California back in the 90s. Uh and uh
hung out with him a bunch of times,

01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:36.397
played pool with him. And then one day
uh I got a call from a friend of mine

01:08:36.480 --> 01:08:38.317
that told me he jumped off the bridge.

01:08:38.400 --> 01:08:40.717
>> No [__] >> 17 when he did that.

01:08:40.800 --> 01:08:45.037
>> He was 17.
He was stricken with road fever.

01:08:45.120 --> 01:08:50.477
>> No. No. 22 years later he got
the chance. So when he was 17, he tried to

01:08:50.560 --> 01:08:53.437
do it. >> Uh so 22 years
later, he got the chance

01:08:53.520 --> 01:08:57.517
to follow that dream, not as a player,
but as a stakehorse, financial backer

01:08:57.600 --> 01:08:59.997
for Tony Anagoni, a non-smoking,

01:09:00.080 --> 01:09:02.397
macrobiotic eating, Renaissance pool

01:09:02.480 --> 01:09:05.117
hustler, student of Eastern religion,

01:09:05.200 --> 01:09:07.597
and master of the pure green felt poetry

01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:10.397
of the Dead Stroke. He was Tony was a

01:09:10.480 --> 01:09:12.877
brilliant guy, like an incredible pool

01:09:12.960 --> 01:09:15.277
player. And again, didn't smoke, didn't

01:09:15.360 --> 01:09:20.717
drink. He would uh play for like 24
hours and he would only drink water.

01:09:20.800 --> 01:09:24.637
He'd play these like long gambling
matches with like high-end pool players.

01:09:24.720 --> 01:09:26.637
He was like a world champion caliber

01:09:26.720 --> 01:09:29.597
pool player. But uh he jumped off the

01:09:29.680 --> 01:09:33.917
bridge, man. No [__] >> Yeah.
I don't know what was going on,

01:09:34.000 --> 01:09:37.037
you know. I I wasn't close with him
at the time. I hadn't seen him in a few

01:09:37.120 --> 01:09:39.037
years. You know, he was living in San

01:09:39.120 --> 01:09:42.157
Francisco. I was living in LA.

01:09:42.240 --> 01:09:46.077
And then um somebody called me

01:09:46.160 --> 01:09:50.157
It's um it's such a scary thing when you

01:09:50.240 --> 01:09:53.517
you don't know that [snorts] a guy would
do that and then they do it and you're

01:09:53.600 --> 01:09:57.677
like you're always like what could I
have done? Could I have said something?

01:09:57.760 --> 01:10:00.637
You know, sometimes someone will call
you and say something. It picks you up

01:10:00.720 --> 01:10:04.637
and you Joey Diaz will do that all
the time. He just call you up, tell you he

01:10:04.720 --> 01:10:06.397
loves you. >> Yeah, he does that to me.

01:10:06.480 --> 01:10:09.357
>> He's the best. [laughter] And he
I do it to him, too. It's like it

01:10:09.440 --> 01:10:13.037
feels good. It's like you you you check
in check in with your friends. Yeah. And

01:10:13.120 --> 01:10:16.557
sometimes when your friend's going
through it and you don't know the extent

01:10:16.640 --> 01:10:19.837
of it, like a lot of men are stoic about
that [__] They don't tell you how bad

01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:23.597
they're suffering. They don't tell you
what's going on. You don't know until

01:10:23.680 --> 01:10:27.117
it's over. And then you're always like,
"What could I could I have said

01:10:27.200 --> 01:10:28.317
something? Could I have done something?

01:10:28.400 --> 01:10:30.397
Should I told other people?
What could I have done?"

01:10:30.480 --> 01:10:34.237
>> Yeah. >> Like Brody.
Brody was a rough one. Brody

01:10:34.320 --> 01:10:38.637
was a rough one. I had no idea.
You know, I knew Brody was struggling. I

01:10:38.720 --> 01:10:41.757
never thought he would take his own life.
I thought he was just like he just

01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:47.037
struggled, you know, like to keep it
together, but he would get on stage and

01:10:47.120 --> 01:10:50.237
he'd be brilliant. And I was like,
"This guy's clearly like great comic,

01:10:50.320 --> 01:10:53.517
hilarious guy. Awesome, awesome guy
to be around. Everybody loved hanging

01:10:53.600 --> 01:10:57.917
around with him." Like, he'll be fine.
I had no idea. And then all of a sudden,

01:10:58.000 --> 01:10:59.837
you get that call. You're like, "Brody

01:10:59.920 --> 01:11:03.277
took his own life." You're like, "What?

01:11:03.360 --> 01:11:06.797
No." You know, like you like what? You

01:11:06.880 --> 01:11:10.317
can't even believe you don't believe
it's real. It's like how what it say

01:11:10.400 --> 01:11:13.117
again. I don't believe it's real.

01:11:13.200 --> 01:11:15.517
>> Well, if anybody
ever says that I killed

01:11:15.600 --> 01:11:19.517
myself, I didn't. [laughter]

01:11:19.600 --> 01:11:23.597
>> I am not that kind of person.
You go find out, Joe, who killed me.

01:11:23.680 --> 01:11:25.437
>> I will find out.
Yeah, I won't believe it.

01:11:25.520 --> 01:11:28.397
>> You would. >> Yeah,
>> I knew you would.

01:11:28.480 --> 01:11:31.197
>> I will. Oh, that's what I was going
to tell you that I I went to that trip in

01:11:31.280 --> 01:11:35.597
Switzerland and then um >> and then
uh we were taking a ride in a

01:11:35.680 --> 01:11:38.077
car for two and a half hours to uh from

01:11:38.160 --> 01:11:40.797
Zerat to Interlockan and I had this

01:11:40.880 --> 01:11:43.917
driver from England

01:11:44.000 --> 01:11:46.797
uh Andrew and he had married a girl from

01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:48.397
Switzerland and moved there 12 years

01:11:48.480 --> 01:11:53.037
ago. And uh and when I was in in uh

01:11:53.120 --> 01:11:58.397
Paris, I really was expecting to get
some anti-American sentiment because

01:11:58.480 --> 01:12:02.237
they don't really like us that much
anyway. But I really didn't feel it. And

01:12:02.320 --> 01:12:04.557
I'm like, "Oh, well, maybe I'm building

01:12:04.640 --> 01:12:07.357
this up more than it is." But in

01:12:07.440 --> 01:12:11.837
Switzerland and uh and also in northern

01:12:11.920 --> 01:12:14.877
Italy, I felt like I'm getting the cold

01:12:14.960 --> 01:12:17.597
shoulder and in these places. And I

01:12:17.680 --> 01:12:19.117
asked him about it. And I said, "Is this

01:12:19.200 --> 01:12:23.437
in my head?" Uh, he goes, "Uh, mate, if

01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:25.277
you want to know the truth, they don't

01:12:25.360 --> 01:12:27.917
like your [__] war.

01:12:28.000 --> 01:12:30.637
>> They don't like your war. They th those

01:12:30.720 --> 01:12:35.677
guys can hit everybody but you and you're
slinging missiles and and uh then

01:12:35.760 --> 01:12:38.397
they also don't like the tariffs.
If you're doing things over there to [__]

01:12:38.480 --> 01:12:41.997
you up, they don't care.
>> But if it [__] us up,

01:12:42.080 --> 01:12:43.677
>> yeah, we we care." I'm like, "Well, I

01:12:43.760 --> 01:12:46.077
didn't have anything to do with it." And

01:12:46.160 --> 01:12:51.597
uh but but that that war is is sitting
pretty pretty nasty with just about

01:12:51.680 --> 01:12:54.877
everybody. I think >> everybody
here too. There's very few

01:12:54.960 --> 01:12:57.437
people here that think it's a good idea.

01:12:57.520 --> 01:13:02.237
>> The only people that I've heard that I
think are very intelligent people that

01:13:02.320 --> 01:13:03.597
think it's a good idea. One of them was

01:13:03.680 --> 01:13:06.877
Palmer Lucky. Palmer Lucky is a tech

01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:09.837
guy, very very smart guy. And one of the

01:13:09.920 --> 01:13:11.757
things that he was on a a podcast and he

01:13:11.840 --> 01:13:15.677
was explaining was um that Iran had

01:13:15.760 --> 01:13:18.637
ramped up its missile production like

01:13:18.720 --> 01:13:21.997
above and beyond and they they were like

01:13:22.080 --> 01:13:27.117
actively accelerating their missile
program and if they did acquire a nuke

01:13:27.200 --> 01:13:30.237
it would have been a real problem
because they have an insane reserve of

01:13:30.320 --> 01:13:33.677
missiles is what he was saying. and he's
saying if we continue to allow them to

01:13:33.760 --> 01:13:36.877
ramp that up and obviously

01:13:36.960 --> 01:13:41.437
the t other thing people have said
is the timing was poor and that really if

01:13:41.520 --> 01:13:44.717
the United States was going to attack
Iran they should have attacked Iran when

01:13:44.800 --> 01:13:47.837
they had the protests when they had
people in the streets and they were

01:13:47.920 --> 01:13:51.197
revoling against the government
and the government was executing civilians

01:13:51.280 --> 01:13:54.717
that's the time and if they did it then
I bet the whole world would be with them

01:13:54.800 --> 01:13:57.757
and I bet the people probably would be
with them the people of Iran would be

01:13:57.840 --> 01:14:00.317
with them who knows what the [__]
would have happened would have been a

01:14:00.400 --> 01:14:01.357
different thing Yeah,

01:14:01.440 --> 01:14:05.597
>> but [snorts]
the timing was way off. And

01:14:05.680 --> 01:14:07.437
his position

01:14:07.520 --> 01:14:09.917
is also interesting because he makes

01:14:10.000 --> 01:14:12.717
weapons, right? He makes drones. He

01:14:12.800 --> 01:14:15.757
makes like super sophisticated military

01:14:15.840 --> 01:14:17.917
technology, but he does it because he

01:14:18.000 --> 01:14:23.037
thinks it's well, also it's his business,
but he does it his rationale

01:14:23.120 --> 01:14:26.717
is that it's important to have a very
strong defense and that he's a patriot.

01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:28.877
That's his position. and his position is

01:14:28.960 --> 01:14:31.277
that this government is a dangerous

01:14:31.360 --> 01:14:36.717
government and they were actively trying
to ramp up their missile program. Again,

01:14:36.800 --> 01:14:39.117
you have to take it from perspective
that he's also a weapons man,

01:14:39.200 --> 01:14:42.717
>> right? He's also he is a brilliant guy.

01:14:42.800 --> 01:14:45.197
>> Yeah, I've seen >> and it's
not like they're like the

01:14:45.280 --> 01:14:48.397
Iranian government's really cool
and we're misrepresenting him. They're

01:14:48.480 --> 01:14:52.157
[__] executing people for protesting
against the government. They're doing

01:14:52.240 --> 01:14:55.357
that in the street. They they run their
government. They run their country with

01:14:55.440 --> 01:14:59.597
an iron fist. It's scary. They there
they definitely sponsor terrorism. They

01:14:59.680 --> 01:15:03.917
definitely do. But also, you know,
they they've been attacked. They've been

01:15:04.000 --> 01:15:06.477
overthrown. You know,
we installed their government.

01:15:06.560 --> 01:15:08.397
>> Yeah. >> You know,
like we monkeyied what they

01:15:08.480 --> 01:15:11.277
they in the 70 or the 50s, whatever it

01:15:11.360 --> 01:15:15.597
was, when you see those photographs of it,
like it was very western. Like they

01:15:15.680 --> 01:15:18.477
were they had a democracy.
>> Yeah. It looked nice over there.

01:15:18.560 --> 01:15:21.837
>> Yeah. We [clears throat] [__] it
all up. It was a big part of us [__] it

01:15:21.920 --> 01:15:24.477
all up. And I bet a lot
of it had to do with oil.

01:15:24.560 --> 01:15:27.037
>> I bet it did. I bet it did.

01:15:27.120 --> 01:15:30.717
>> It's so spooky
the the kind of [__] that

01:15:30.800 --> 01:15:33.437
we've been doing and they've been doing
and all these governments have been

01:15:33.520 --> 01:15:38.477
doing all around the world monkeying
with other people's [__] countries.

01:15:38.560 --> 01:15:41.517
It's like Jesus Christ, everybody's
out there playing Russian roulette. Like

01:15:41.600 --> 01:15:44.957
what the [__] are you doing? >> Yeah.
You know, Israel is right in the

01:15:45.040 --> 01:15:48.717
middle of all that missile
slinging also, you know. And

01:15:48.800 --> 01:15:52.157
>> but boy, they don't like it. [laughter]
They don't like it. And I don't think

01:15:52.240 --> 01:15:56.237
they understood that the
only thing that keeping uh

01:15:56.320 --> 01:15:58.797
Iran from bombing other people was us.

01:15:58.880 --> 01:16:01.517
So when we started bombing them,
they're like, "What the fuck?"

01:16:01.600 --> 01:16:06.797
>> Yeah. >> I'm going to start shooting
some stuff out to Bajar andQatar.

01:16:06.880 --> 01:16:09.197
And >> that's the other
thing is all the other

01:16:09.280 --> 01:16:11.917
Gulf states that support the uh attack

01:16:12.000 --> 01:16:14.477
in Iran. That's kind of nuts. is all the

01:16:14.560 --> 01:16:16.397
you know all those other countries like

01:16:16.480 --> 01:16:21.757
Saudi Arabia and Qatar and all they
support it like they don't want Iran to

01:16:21.840 --> 01:16:26.077
get a nuclear weapon they don't want
Iran to have that kind of power but most

01:16:26.160 --> 01:16:30.317
people in America are like what this
was the whole reason why what one of the

01:16:30.400 --> 01:16:34.477
things that people loved about
Trump was no more [__] wars

01:16:34.560 --> 01:16:37.677
>> no more wars >> no
more unnecessary wars

01:16:37.760 --> 01:16:41.117
>> that was the one thing I couldn't argue
with you know like okay well then yeah

01:16:41.200 --> 01:16:44.237
we don't need to be in a war
>> yeah and that's what we

01:16:44.320 --> 01:16:46.797
you know, but it seems like we're in one.

01:16:46.880 --> 01:16:50.077
>> Seems like it. They won't call it that,
but that's uh what it seems like to me.

01:16:50.160 --> 01:16:51.917
>> What are they calling it? A conflict.

01:16:52.000 --> 01:16:54.877
>> Conflict. Military conflict.
Same as Vietnam.

01:16:54.960 --> 01:16:58.637
>> Jesus Christ. >> Yeah.
It's like that like that was a good idea.

01:16:58.720 --> 01:17:00.337
>> I looked up something crazy last night.

01:17:00.420 --> 01:17:02.717
[clears throat] I just like I think I
asked Grock or one of the things like

01:17:02.800 --> 01:17:04.557
how many >> could you
talk just a little louder?

01:17:04.640 --> 01:17:06.237
>> Sure. How many years has the United

01:17:06.320 --> 01:17:09.277
States been in conflicts? I think just

01:17:09.360 --> 01:17:11.997
like in general total and it said that

01:17:12.080 --> 01:17:14.477
like only from the years from 19 or

01:17:14.560 --> 01:17:17.357
sorry 1891 to 1897

01:17:17.440 --> 01:17:20.317
were we not in a conflict and since

01:17:20.400 --> 01:17:24.557
World War II we've been in some
sort of something every year.

01:17:24.640 --> 01:17:26.797
>> Yeah. >> Every single
year since whatever 45.

01:17:26.880 --> 01:17:29.757
>> Not a thing like
Switzerland. [laughter]

01:17:29.840 --> 01:17:33.197
>> We're in all of them. All of them. Woo.

01:17:33.280 --> 01:17:36.317
>> And I think it's uh I think it's that a

01:17:36.400 --> 01:17:40.237
lot of it is just exactly what you were
talking about is the the big machine

01:17:40.320 --> 01:17:43.917
that is defense. You know,
>> it's a huge machine. The budget is

01:17:44.000 --> 01:17:47.837
insane. The amount of money is insane
and they want to keep making that money.

01:17:47.920 --> 01:17:50.637
>> That's why we don't
have our highspeed rails.

01:17:50.720 --> 01:17:52.717
>> Also, they try to do
that in California.

01:17:52.800 --> 01:17:55.597
It seems like people stole the money.
I don't know what the [__] they did there.

01:17:55.680 --> 01:17:59.117
You know how much they spent
on the highspeed rail in California?

01:17:59.200 --> 01:18:02.477
>> It's insane. It's like they haven't
even laid the tracks yet. They've spent

01:18:02.560 --> 01:18:06.477
billions. They're way over budget.
It's going to take forever. And even then,

01:18:06.560 --> 01:18:11.037
there's a part that you have to take
a bus. You get to like Yeah. Who's

01:18:11.120 --> 01:18:14.157
explaining that to us? >> Not
a high-speed bus either. A regular bus.

01:18:14.240 --> 01:18:18.157
>> No, it's a regular bus. Regular bus.
You You take the highspeed goes to a very

01:18:18.240 --> 01:18:19.917
short distance. You get off, you get on

01:18:20.000 --> 01:18:22.077
a bus, and you go from like Bakersfield

01:18:22.160 --> 01:18:25.197
to LA on a bus. [laughter]

01:18:25.280 --> 01:18:30.717
They spent they spent billions billions
of dollars on this >> at the end of it.

01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:32.797
>> Oh, it's so stupid.
>> Take a bus where you're going.

01:18:32.880 --> 01:18:36.157
>> It's so stupid. And then they had Gavin
Newsome like posed in front of trains

01:18:36.240 --> 01:18:39.277
the other day. Did like a press
conference like talking about how

01:18:39.360 --> 01:18:42.157
they're moving forward with the
highspeed rail. Like [__] that thing

01:18:42.240 --> 01:18:45.037
ain't ever going to work. It's just a

01:18:45.120 --> 01:18:48.417
grift. They're just stealing money

01:18:48.500 --> 01:18:52.237
[sighs] like those goddamn condors.

01:18:52.320 --> 01:18:55.517
>> What about the condors?
I don't think they're real.

01:18:55.600 --> 01:18:57.117
>> What do you mean?
>> I [laughter] just don't think they're

01:18:57.200 --> 01:19:01.277
real. I don't think there's a shortage
of them. I don't I think we just got the

01:19:01.360 --> 01:19:04.477
right amount of condors and it's
[snorts] nature's way of taking care of

01:19:04.560 --> 01:19:08.637
itself. It's an ugly bird. >> So,
do you think that um when people

01:19:08.720 --> 01:19:11.997
were saying that the condors were
endangered, do you think that there's a

01:19:12.080 --> 01:19:14.717
grift attached to that?
>> That's what [snorts] I think.

01:19:14.800 --> 01:19:17.357
>> What would be the grift?
>> The grift is give us money so we can

01:19:17.440 --> 01:19:21.197
save these condors >> and then
boom, you got money. And uh you

01:19:21.280 --> 01:19:23.837
saving condors with it.
Well, we don't know.

01:19:23.920 --> 01:19:27.037
>> Are your position that condors
should be allowed to go extinct?

01:19:27.120 --> 01:19:29.677
>> What >> should they
be allowed to go extinct?

01:19:29.760 --> 01:19:34.157
>> If they want to, they leave it up
to the condors. If they don't want to [__]

01:19:34.240 --> 01:19:37.357
anymore, quit [__] >> One
of the things that they've said was

01:19:37.440 --> 01:19:42.077
that uh a lot of them were dying
from lead poisoning from bullets from

01:19:42.160 --> 01:19:46.957
hunters. And so they made the hunter
switch over to uh copper bullets. Do you

01:19:47.040 --> 01:19:50.877
know that? >> And that didn't >>
California you have to have copper

01:19:50.960 --> 01:19:53.357
bullets now. in your shotgun.

01:19:53.440 --> 01:19:57.997
>> Yeah. And in rifles, too. Like if you
shoot an elk with a rifle in California,

01:19:58.080 --> 01:20:00.077
you have to have a copper bullet.

01:20:00.160 --> 01:20:03.997
>> No [__] >> Yeah. And I think >>
Do you use copper bullets anyway?

01:20:04.080 --> 01:20:06.877
>> No, I don't.
I don't really hunt with a rifle.

01:20:06.960 --> 01:20:08.397
>> Oh, you're just a bow guy, right?

01:20:08.480 --> 01:20:12.717
>> Yeah. Um but it's it's
effective. They work. I've

01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:14.957
I've killed an elk with a copper bullet

01:20:15.040 --> 01:20:17.597
before. Does work. I shot an elk in

01:20:17.680 --> 01:20:22.077
California with a rifle. But it's
um it's weird because I don't know if

01:20:22.160 --> 01:20:25.117
that's really what's killing the condors.
I don't know if does that

01:20:25.200 --> 01:20:29.517
really how many birds die from lead
poisoning from bullets. That seems kind of

01:20:29.600 --> 01:20:31.037
>> they they fly awfully high.

01:20:31.120 --> 01:20:33.117
>> How many hunters
are losing animals that

01:20:33.200 --> 01:20:36.317
there's there's that many bullets
that are just laying around that birds are

01:20:36.400 --> 01:20:37.597
eating?

01:20:37.680 --> 01:20:40.477
>> I don't think that's right. That seems

01:20:40.560 --> 01:20:45.277
like a weird connection. Like I see if
like if a bird made a habit of eating

01:20:45.360 --> 01:20:48.557
lead, yeah, that'd be [__] terrible
for you. But is that really affecting

01:20:48.640 --> 01:20:50.717
the population?
There's that much lead out there.

01:20:50.800 --> 01:20:53.677
>> I wouldn't think so.
>> It sounds kooky.

01:20:53.760 --> 01:20:55.757
>> Yeah. >> But I don't know.
>> I don't either.

01:20:55.840 --> 01:20:58.877
>> You know, but this, you know, there's

01:20:58.960 --> 01:21:02.317
always these weird

01:21:02.400 --> 01:21:07.357
like regulations they put down on things
to protect wildlife. It gets super

01:21:07.440 --> 01:21:11.357
squirrely.
I don't Is there any data that shows

01:21:11.440 --> 01:21:13.277
that animals were dying from lead

01:21:13.360 --> 01:21:16.637
poisoning for bullets?

01:21:16.720 --> 01:21:20.797
Why would I wonder why they would make
because like California just passed some

01:21:20.880 --> 01:21:25.677
crazy law where they uh made
70% of all tires illegal.

01:21:25.760 --> 01:21:28.557
What >> I know >> 70% of

01:21:28.640 --> 01:21:31.117
>> 70 70% of the tires that are being sold

01:21:31.200 --> 01:21:34.637
in California will now be illegal. They

01:21:34.720 --> 01:21:40.077
>> what? some crazy new regulations about
what kind of tires you're allowed to have,

01:21:40.160 --> 01:21:43.117
>> what they're made out of,
>> how they're made, their construction

01:21:43.200 --> 01:21:45.277
method, the quality of them, blah blah

01:21:45.360 --> 01:21:47.757
blah, what, how efficient they are,

01:21:47.840 --> 01:21:51.597
whatever it is, 70%.

01:21:51.680 --> 01:21:53.357
>> What are they going to use for tires?

01:21:53.440 --> 01:21:57.357
>> Well, they're just going to be able
to sell 30% of the tires. They're they're

01:21:57.440 --> 01:22:00.317
going to have to sell more of those
tires, but it's going to probably cost

01:22:00.400 --> 01:22:03.197
the consumer a lot more money.
It's probably going to [__] up the

01:22:03.280 --> 01:22:05.757
manufacturers, [__] up their businesses.

01:22:05.840 --> 01:22:08.557
Um, and it's uh some regulation that's

01:22:08.640 --> 01:22:11.277
supposed to work with uh it's supposed

01:22:11.360 --> 01:22:15.037
to save gas somehow. The more efficient

01:22:15.120 --> 01:22:19.757
tires over time will save millions
of gallons of gas. Like, stay the [__] out

01:22:19.840 --> 01:22:22.717
of people's business, you [__]
California has approved a new

01:22:22.800 --> 01:22:25.357
replacement tire efficiency program. Not

01:22:25.440 --> 01:22:27.517
a ban on tires you already own, right?

01:22:27.600 --> 01:22:32.317
But it but it bans the tires you can sell.
This is a weird way to frame it.

01:22:32.400 --> 01:22:34.397
It regulates >> your tires
are going to wear out and

01:22:34.480 --> 01:22:35.917
then you got to replace them with these.

01:22:36.000 --> 01:22:38.397
>> It regulates which
new replacement tires

01:22:38.480 --> 01:22:41.197
may be sold in California
for pasture vehicles.

01:22:41.280 --> 01:22:44.717
>> What changes? California Energy
Commission unanimously unanimously

01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:47.757
adopted the rule on August 17th, 2026.

01:22:47.840 --> 01:22:49.837
It purpose is to ensure replacement

01:22:49.920 --> 01:22:52.877
tires are on average at least as energy

01:22:52.960 --> 01:22:57.037
efficient as original equipment
tires fitted to new vehicles. The key

01:22:57.120 --> 01:22:59.277
technical measure is rolling resistance.

01:22:59.360 --> 01:23:03.357
Lower rolling resistance generally means
less energy is needed to keep the tire

01:23:03.440 --> 01:23:06.077
rolling, which can improve gas mileage

01:23:06.160 --> 01:23:09.517
or EV range. So, it's basically like you

01:23:09.600 --> 01:23:14.157
can't buy cheap tires. You have to buy
the same kind of tires that your car

01:23:14.240 --> 01:23:17.517
came with. >> Well,
so they're really kind of putting

01:23:17.600 --> 01:23:20.957
a ban on shitty tires. Are there people
out there just making shitty tires and

01:23:21.040 --> 01:23:21.997
they're trying to get rid of them?

01:23:22.080 --> 01:23:26.077
>> Well, they're probably making tires
that are less expensive and still pretty

01:23:26.160 --> 01:23:29.997
good. Like if you're driving a Camry,
do you really need original equipment

01:23:30.080 --> 01:23:33.837
tires? Your car sucks. Your car has
>> Oh, no. I would be looking for the

01:23:33.920 --> 01:23:37.357
cheapest tire I could put on that car
just to get to the next payday.

01:23:37.440 --> 01:23:41.197
>> Exactly. So, if you're broke and you're
different, the difference is like a $79

01:23:41.280 --> 01:23:45.437
tire or a $59 tire and it's
basically the same to you.

01:23:45.520 --> 01:23:47.277
>> Yeah. Yeah.
Just put them on the camera.

01:23:47.360 --> 01:23:48.637
>> Yeah. And now all
of a sudden these tire

01:23:48.720 --> 01:23:52.237
shops, they can't sell them anymore.

01:23:52.320 --> 01:23:56.957
What? So, what if you have inventory?
Do you have to get rid of your inventory?

01:23:57.040 --> 01:24:01.597
Do I have to dump all my What if What if
you're a guy like you works at Tires RS?

01:24:01.680 --> 01:24:05.677
And you know, you said, you know,
it'd be cool if I could ensure that I had

01:24:05.760 --> 01:24:08.557
every [__] tire for 90% of the cars

01:24:08.640 --> 01:24:13.037
right away. I'll stack them. I'll stock
them here. And that way I'll get a whole

01:24:13.120 --> 01:24:16.237
ton of business. We have your tires,
right? And then all a sudden you got to

01:24:16.320 --> 01:24:19.757
get rid of all those tires.
>> We ain't got your tire no more.

01:24:19.840 --> 01:24:22.477
>> That's crazy. >> Seems
like there'd be a lot of other

01:24:22.560 --> 01:24:25.837
things to worry about. Well, I have
my buddy Matt who was at the club last

01:24:25.920 --> 01:24:30.157
night. His house burnt down in the
Pacific Palisades fire and the He's

01:24:30.240 --> 01:24:33.117
like, "The regulations you're going
through to try to rebuild your house are

01:24:33.200 --> 01:24:37.997
[__] insane." He's like, "We're not
even close to starting construction."

01:24:38.080 --> 01:24:42.557
And he's got money and he, you know, he's
like, he could just start construction.

01:24:42.640 --> 01:24:45.037
>> They're just going to change the way
they build houses there to make them

01:24:45.120 --> 01:24:47.757
less fireproof. >> I don't
know what they're doing, man.

01:24:47.840 --> 01:24:52.157
They're just making it the regulations
are insane. It's just like there's so

01:24:52.240 --> 01:24:57.117
much red tape before you can begin
construction again. Whereas in Texas, if

01:24:57.200 --> 01:24:59.597
your house burnt down, you go, "Oh,
here's the plans for the new house."

01:24:59.680 --> 01:25:01.277
They go, "It looks good. It's up to code."

01:25:01.360 --> 01:25:05.277
>> Y >> good luck. Build your [__] house.
And you just build your house. That's it.

01:25:05.360 --> 01:25:09.517
>> Right. >> You're on that California
Coastal Commission, >> bro. Yeah.

01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:12.797
>> They are brutal.
Those people are brutal.

01:25:12.880 --> 01:25:16.957
>> Yeah. I'm I'm glad I'm
out of the uh real estate [__]

01:25:17.040 --> 01:25:17.997
>> the California real estate.

01:25:18.080 --> 01:25:21.037
>> California. Yeah. Well,
>> I'm glad I got out when I did.

01:25:21.120 --> 01:25:22.717
>> A lot of people are
trying to get out now.

01:25:22.800 --> 01:25:25.117
>> Yeah, >> I know a bunch of friends that
are trying to get out and they can't sell

01:25:25.200 --> 01:25:28.077
their house. >> But I got
to tell you, I still love uh

01:25:28.160 --> 01:25:31.277
Southern California, man. I love to go
out there and play golf and hang out

01:25:31.360 --> 01:25:35.037
with my you know, I still know a lot
of people down there. Southern California

01:25:35.120 --> 01:25:39.757
is beautiful, you know? That [__]
that [__] climate is just untouchable

01:25:39.840 --> 01:25:43.037
anywhere in the world, >> which
is amazing that they [__] it up

01:25:43.120 --> 01:25:44.797
so bad that people
want to move from there.

01:25:44.880 --> 01:25:47.917
>> Yeah, >> cuz it's awesome.
It's not just awesome.

01:25:48.000 --> 01:25:53.597
It's like the variety of environments
you can get to within two hours is crazy.

01:25:53.680 --> 01:25:57.917
>> Remember you were going to buy that big
ranch out in Monaceto or Santa Barbara

01:25:58.000 --> 01:26:00.717
or something. >> I didn't
even know you had money then.

01:26:00.800 --> 01:26:03.997
Whenever you first told me
that, I was like, "Oh, yeah.

01:26:04.080 --> 01:26:07.517
>> All right. You have no idea what it
costs to buy a [__] piece of property

01:26:07.600 --> 01:26:11.517
and [__] what do you got?
A podcast and a couple of [__] shows."

01:26:11.600 --> 01:26:14.317
>> First time I did your podcast,
I didn't even know what it was.

01:26:14.400 --> 01:26:15.917
>> I was like, "You'd
asked me to do it." I

01:26:16.000 --> 01:26:18.717
said, "I got I come do your podcast."

01:26:18.800 --> 01:26:21.597
And I had no idea. It was [__]

01:26:21.680 --> 01:26:25.837
millions of people and it sold books
and tickets and I'm like, "God damn, Joe,

01:26:25.920 --> 01:26:27.597
what do you got going on over here?"

01:26:27.680 --> 01:26:32.077
>> Well, it was, you know, back then it
was like kind of under the radar. People

01:26:32.160 --> 01:26:35.917
didn't know what a podcast was, but still
millions of people were listening

01:26:36.000 --> 01:26:40.237
to them. >> How many subscribers
do you have now? Do you even know?

01:26:40.320 --> 01:26:43.597
>> I think on YouTube,
what do we have? 20 something.

01:26:43.680 --> 01:26:47.357
>> Yeah, we're over 20, I think.
20 million on YouTube and >> same on both.

01:26:47.440 --> 01:26:51.997
>> Same on Spotify.
It's like 20 million subscribers. [__]

01:26:52.080 --> 01:26:56.637
>> That's a lot of people. >> Yeah, that's

01:26:56.720 --> 01:26:58.477
what I was talking to Angela about it

01:26:58.560 --> 01:27:02.317
this morning and uh she said, "What what

01:27:02.400 --> 01:27:05.917
are you doing? I'm doing Joe's uh
podcast. I'm going to go talk to 20

01:27:06.000 --> 01:27:08.077
million people and I really don't have

01:27:08.160 --> 01:27:12.957
anything to say." So, uh she goes,
"Well, Joe will lead you through it.

01:27:13.040 --> 01:27:16.557
You'll be fine." And I'm like, I know,
but it's still 20 million [__] people.

01:27:16.640 --> 01:27:18.077
>> You can't think about it.
>> Yeah, I know.

01:27:18.160 --> 01:27:19.357
>> If you think about it,
it'll [__] your head.

01:27:19.440 --> 01:27:21.677
>> I just started thinking
about it. [__] me up.

01:27:21.760 --> 01:27:25.437
>> Don't do it. Let it go. >> Do I
know any of them? I know a lot of them.

01:27:25.520 --> 01:27:28.797
>> Listen, they're just folks like
you and me. That's why it works.

01:27:28.880 --> 01:27:32.957
>> Yeah. >> You know,
we just have uh lucky lives.

01:27:33.040 --> 01:27:35.037
>> We have lucky [clears
throat] lives, Joe.

01:27:35.120 --> 01:27:36.957
>> Very lucky lives. >> Lucky lives.

01:27:37.040 --> 01:27:39.117
>> That's the best way
to put it. I'm going

01:27:39.200 --> 01:27:41.517
to do uh you know next week I'm

01:27:41.600 --> 01:27:44.797
celebrating 40 years in uh standup

01:27:44.880 --> 01:27:50.557
comedying. September 17th, 1986
is when I first started telling jokes.

01:27:50.640 --> 01:27:52.477
>> Where you are you
doing a set that night?

01:27:52.560 --> 01:27:55.997
>> I am. I got a show
at uh in Dallas that night.

01:27:56.080 --> 01:27:59.437
>> Oh, nice. >> And uh
and uh and I'm leaving this

01:27:59.520 --> 01:28:01.037
weekend for the first I've been off for

01:28:01.120 --> 01:28:04.477
four months. So, I'm going to Florida, I

01:28:04.560 --> 01:28:08.237
think Daytona and I don't know, couple

01:28:08.320 --> 01:28:10.397
>> I always love to do stand up in Dallas.

01:28:10.480 --> 01:28:12.637
Dallas is a fun city. >> Yeah, it is.

01:28:12.720 --> 01:28:17.197
>> That's fun. I always love Dallas.
I always loved Houston and I always love

01:28:17.280 --> 01:28:20.317
Dallas. >> Yeah, I love
Houston, too. I just have

01:28:20.400 --> 01:28:24.717
that one big play out in Katy in that big
gigantic room out there. And I don't

01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:28.477
even go into Houston anymore.
I just go to Katy. That's as far as I go.

01:28:28.560 --> 01:28:30.957
>> What is the place? >> Oh,
I don't know. It's that 6,000

01:28:31.040 --> 01:28:34.557
seater. You played it, right? That big
old huge thing. They can block parts of

01:28:34.640 --> 01:28:36.237
it off. Yeah. Yeah, I do that spot.

01:28:36.320 --> 01:28:40.317
Yeah. >> Big [__] I I think they change
the name of it every two years, you know,

01:28:40.400 --> 01:28:42.637
put a new sponsor on it.
Was a Toyota something.

01:28:42.720 --> 01:28:44.397
>> Yeah, they always do
stuff like that, right?

01:28:44.480 --> 01:28:48.797
>> That's always weird. >> It's always a
bank or some corporation or something. So,

01:28:48.880 --> 01:28:52.957
>> I could never find a room in that town
that I liked was there was the the the

01:28:53.040 --> 01:28:57.357
really nice one was too small and they
had this big concrete vomitorium

01:28:57.440 --> 01:28:59.437
downtown that used to be a rock house.

01:28:59.520 --> 01:29:01.757
So you could just wash vomit out of it

01:29:01.840 --> 01:29:04.237
with a [__] hose. Had a lady fall out

01:29:04.320 --> 01:29:10.317
of the [__] balcony 26 ft. Landed
on another lady, flattened a [__] metal

01:29:10.400 --> 01:29:13.437
chair. >> Oh no. >> Both of them left.
And I thought a light

01:29:13.520 --> 01:29:15.277
fell from the sky. I didn't know. I was

01:29:15.360 --> 01:29:18.237
on stage and people are going

01:29:18.320 --> 01:29:21.197
people screaming. I'm like [__] [__]

01:29:21.280 --> 01:29:25.677
And turn the lights on and we
got [__] ambulance [__] stretchers

01:29:25.760 --> 01:29:29.117
coming out. They both left
on [__] stretchers. Oh my god.

01:29:29.200 --> 01:29:35.037
>> And uh big lady too. Buck 80 [__]
flattened another woman and her chair.

01:29:35.120 --> 01:29:39.037
>> Oh. >> Then the next
show, the same night, guy

01:29:39.120 --> 01:29:41.677
has a heart attack and dies. And I'm

01:29:41.760 --> 01:29:43.997
like, is this an Indian burial ground or

01:29:44.080 --> 01:29:46.957
some [__] Jesus Christ. [laughter]

01:29:47.040 --> 01:29:52.317
What the [__] And that but and that was
my only play there. And then they opened

01:29:52.400 --> 01:29:56.077
that big building out in Katie.
I'm like, okay, this is mine, boys.

01:29:56.160 --> 01:29:58.557
>> That place is haunted.
>> [__] Yeah, I'm not going back.

01:29:58.640 --> 01:30:01.117
>> Have you ever talked to anybody else
that had weird things happen in that

01:30:01.200 --> 01:30:05.597
place? >> Uh, I really hadn't, but I, you
know, I >> Two nights, two or two shows.

01:30:05.680 --> 01:30:08.077
>> Two shows in one night. Yeah. And I

01:30:08.160 --> 01:30:12.717
always thought, man, these balconies
are awfully [__] steep cuz [laughter] you

01:30:12.800 --> 01:30:16.157
could go up there and sit in it and go,
"How do people What keeps them from

01:30:16.240 --> 01:30:18.637
falling over?" Nothing. Not a goddamn

01:30:18.720 --> 01:30:23.837
thing. Woman just lost her balance
and went right over the [__] edge.

01:30:23.920 --> 01:30:28.157
Whenever I see those pen houses in Miami,
I think of that. I was watching

01:30:28.240 --> 01:30:31.597
some YouTube video where there was when
one of I like watching those real estate

01:30:31.680 --> 01:30:35.197
shows where guys like, "Look
at this incredible apartment. Look at the

01:30:35.280 --> 01:30:38.077
amenity." I like I don't know
why I'm a [__] I like watching

01:30:38.160 --> 01:30:41.197
>> I like real estate [__] >> I
like watching condos and places I'll

01:30:41.280 --> 01:30:44.317
never buy a condo. So, he's at this uh

01:30:44.400 --> 01:30:47.197
crazy condo that's a penthouse in Miami.

01:30:47.280 --> 01:30:50.317
It's like $70 million and it's got this

01:30:50.400 --> 01:30:54.397
glass wall that's like titty high and

01:30:54.480 --> 01:30:58.397
then down like 70 flights. It's this

01:30:58.480 --> 01:31:00.797
glass wall and then look over the side.

01:31:00.880 --> 01:31:04.797
Like I can't swing that.
>> I don't like that feeling.

01:31:04.880 --> 01:31:07.757
>> I don't like it worse if
I have my phone in my hand

01:31:07.840 --> 01:31:11.117
>> because I can fall off. That's fine,
but I can't let that phone go.

01:31:11.200 --> 01:31:13.357
>> What if the phone hits somebody
in the head and kills them?

01:31:13.440 --> 01:31:14.557
>> That'd be on you, wouldn't it?

01:31:14.640 --> 01:31:17.357
>> It would be on you. It'd be easy
to trace that [__] right on back to

01:31:17.440 --> 01:31:21.037
where it came from. >> Be hard.
It's just like the the balcony

01:31:21.120 --> 01:31:23.677
thing. Like I see that in New York City,
too. Some of those apartments that have

01:31:23.760 --> 01:31:27.517
balconies and you just look over
the ledge. Like that's too weird. It's too

01:31:27.600 --> 01:31:31.277
weird that there's a place in your house
where you could definitely die if you

01:31:31.360 --> 01:31:33.037
take an extra step. >> All right.

01:31:33.120 --> 01:31:36.637
>> I would say don't live in a place where
you could definitely die if you take an

01:31:36.720 --> 01:31:40.637
extra step. [laughter] >>
Just generally as a rule.

01:31:40.720 --> 01:31:44.237
>> That's got to [__] with your anxiety,
too. Imagine getting high up there and

01:31:44.320 --> 01:31:48.157
looking down. >> I've I've still got
that penthouse, but it's only 22 floors.

01:31:48.240 --> 01:31:49.597
>> That's enough. >> Yeah, that's plenty.

01:31:49.680 --> 01:31:51.277
>> I've been to your place. That's enough.

01:31:51.360 --> 01:31:53.997
That's more than enough to die.

01:31:54.080 --> 01:31:56.397
>> More than enough.
>> I live like 600 feet in the sky.

01:31:56.480 --> 01:31:59.917
>> I know you do, dude. You live way
the >> I have I asked someone who lives up

01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:03.917
there, too. I have a couple weird dreams
sometimes where like the building is

01:32:04.000 --> 01:32:06.317
falling over. It's not like a crash or a

01:32:06.400 --> 01:32:09.117
big event, but like it's just weird

01:32:09.200 --> 01:32:13.597
inception like mindbending just
falling to the ground very slowly

01:32:13.680 --> 01:32:17.517
and weirdly. It's [__] because you can
feel the the sway. I see my toilet water

01:32:17.600 --> 01:32:20.877
move all the time. >> [__] that,
dude. Get out. Get out. Where

01:32:20.960 --> 01:32:24.717
you live? Don't say it.
I'm going to say I live downtown also.

01:32:24.800 --> 01:32:29.837
>> Don't get out now. >> Get out.
Get yourself a place in view.

01:32:29.920 --> 01:32:31.677
>> You can't like the view is insane.

01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:35.997
>> Oh yeah, your view is sick. Yeah. Yeah,
I mean there's pros to it for sure. Like

01:32:36.080 --> 01:32:39.357
whenever I'm in New York City, if I
know somebody that has an apartment, my

01:32:39.440 --> 01:32:43.837
friend's dad had an apartment in New
York City and he had like this corner

01:32:43.920 --> 01:32:47.997
building like uh this building where his
uh his apartment had glass on one side,

01:32:48.080 --> 01:32:51.517
glass on the other side. It was just
all city and it was in the middle of

01:32:51.600 --> 01:32:55.037
everything and I was like this is the
view. Like a lot of people have the view

01:32:55.120 --> 01:32:59.037
of like the city in the distance, but
the city right on top of you and he was

01:32:59.120 --> 01:33:01.517
like, you know, like 30th floor
or something like that and there's all

01:33:01.600 --> 01:33:05.837
these other buildings. It's like like
a sci-fi movie, you know? It's like it's

01:33:05.920 --> 01:33:10.317
so exciting. Just the feeling of all
these lit windows and all these

01:33:10.400 --> 01:33:13.437
buildings around you and looking
down, seeing the cars and traffic,

01:33:13.520 --> 01:33:17.037
>> all the [__] stories, man,
that everybody has, you know,

01:33:17.120 --> 01:33:19.837
>> and everybody's like watching
everybody else. Everybody's got [__]

01:33:19.920 --> 01:33:22.717
binoculars. They're looking into other
people's windows and seeing if people

01:33:22.800 --> 01:33:29.517
are [__] people.
>> I got a big old [__] tripod.

01:33:29.600 --> 01:33:33.677
I had seen Titty One with it. I don't
know how much I spent on that goddamn

01:33:33.760 --> 01:33:35.997
thing. I [clears throat]
haven't seen one tit.

01:33:36.080 --> 01:33:38.317
>> The New York City
thing I I kind of get,

01:33:38.400 --> 01:33:41.917
but I don't. I mean, I I think I get it.

01:33:42.000 --> 01:33:44.477
If you if I was a single guy and I was

01:33:44.560 --> 01:33:47.517
younger, I kind of get it. But someone

01:33:47.600 --> 01:33:51.997
like to me, I'm just being on top
of people like that is not good for you. I

01:33:52.080 --> 01:33:54.877
don't think it's good for you to be
smooshed in with so many people like to

01:33:54.960 --> 01:33:57.357
feel all their vibe
around you all the time.

01:33:57.440 --> 01:34:00.317
>> Yeah. I I love to go there. there.
I used to take my mother, my mother used

01:34:00.400 --> 01:34:03.197
to go, loved to go to [__] theater

01:34:03.280 --> 01:34:07.597
there. So I mother was alive, I would
take her to New York and we went to see

01:34:07.680 --> 01:34:11.757
Phantom Opera and like halfway through it,
I leaned over to mother and said, I

01:34:11.840 --> 01:34:15.917
didn't realize it was an opera. Well,
it's in the name. I'm [laughter] like, I

01:34:16.000 --> 01:34:18.077
know, but I still didn't know it was going
to be Oh, you thought it was going

01:34:18.160 --> 01:34:20.957
to be like the >> a play of Yeah.
I didn't know it was

01:34:21.040 --> 01:34:24.637
going to be just a straight up [__] opera.
I wouldn't have gone. [laughter]

01:34:24.720 --> 01:34:28.957
But we also went to see Book of Mormon
with the the original cast and that was

01:34:29.040 --> 01:34:31.597
so [__] funny, man.
>> Book of Mormon's amazing.

01:34:31.680 --> 01:34:35.037
>> God, what a great [__] those
[__] South Park boys. South America,

01:34:35.120 --> 01:34:38.397
>> didn't Yeah, they changed the name
of their show to South America for Trump.

01:34:38.480 --> 01:34:41.517
>> Yeah, I think it's >> an episode.
No, it's the next year.

01:34:41.600 --> 01:34:43.037
That's what it's going to be called.

01:34:43.120 --> 01:34:47.037
Yep. [laughter] >> That was
the best joke. I laughed out

01:34:47.120 --> 01:34:49.357
loud. I read it on my phone by myself at

01:34:49.440 --> 01:34:54.637
the house and laughed out loud. Like,
that is [__] rich. Oh, it's so silly.

01:34:54.720 --> 01:34:57.357
>> Those guys, you can't [__] with those
guys. They're funny and they don't give

01:34:57.440 --> 01:34:59.517
a [__] >> and they're super rich.

01:34:59.600 --> 01:35:04.377
>> Yeah, super [__] rich. >>
The website has it as South America now.

01:35:04.460 --> 01:35:06.480
[laughter]

01:35:08.640 --> 01:35:12.637
>> [__] amazing.
I I couldn't live without South Park.

01:35:12.720 --> 01:35:13.917
>> That means we'll get
a new theme song, man.

01:35:14.000 --> 01:35:17.197
>> They're like the only thing
that Comedy Central didn't [__] up.

01:35:17.280 --> 01:35:21.117
>> They were too big for Comedy Central,
you know? They they had us so much

01:35:21.200 --> 01:35:25.357
power, you know, with the success of that
show. I guess they don't [__] with us.

01:35:25.440 --> 01:35:29.197
>> I remember when the first tape
was going around, the VHS tape.

01:35:29.280 --> 01:35:31.887
>> Yeah. >> What would
Brian Bano do? Remember that?

01:35:31.970 --> 01:35:35.837
[laughter] >> What would Brian Bano
do if he weren't here right now?

01:35:35.920 --> 01:35:38.077
>> He'd make a plan and follow through.

01:35:38.160 --> 01:35:39.837
>> That's back before the internet.

01:35:39.920 --> 01:35:43.517
>> That's what's really crazy. South
Park was around before the internet was

01:35:43.600 --> 01:35:46.157
everywhere. So, this was probably like

01:35:46.240 --> 01:35:50.957
95, right? Yeah, I think so.
When did uh the

01:35:51.040 --> 01:35:54.637
first >> It debuted on uh Comedy
Central in 99, I think, or 97,

01:35:54.720 --> 01:35:57.917
>> but there was a tape that they
had made that was going around and

01:35:58.000 --> 01:36:00.157
>> there was the spirit of Christmas
and there's something that I think that's

01:36:00.240 --> 01:36:02.637
Jesus for Santa Cl. >> Yeah,

01:36:02.720 --> 01:36:04.477
>> it was a Christmas card or something.

01:36:04.560 --> 01:36:07.677
>> Yeah. What year was that made?

01:36:07.760 --> 01:36:11.837
>> Cuz I remember I was dating a gal who
worked in an agency and she got a copy

01:36:11.920 --> 01:36:15.117
of it. >> This says 95,
but something just said

01:36:15.200 --> 01:36:19.517
92. Hold on. >> Interesting.
So it was like the internet

01:36:19.600 --> 01:36:23.597
really became a thing in people's >>
first released that's weird. Something

01:36:23.680 --> 01:36:26.477
was released in '92
and then something in 95.

01:36:26.560 --> 01:36:29.117
>> Okay.

01:36:29.200 --> 01:36:33.517
>> The first in '92
short films. So I think

01:36:33.600 --> 01:36:35.037
>> I guess it would have been Jesus.

01:36:35.120 --> 01:36:42.120
>> The earliest that I could
have seen it was 95 I believe.

01:36:42.400 --> 01:36:46.397
>> Jesus the kids play place
the m magic hat on Frosty. Huh.

01:36:46.480 --> 01:36:48.717
>> I don't really remember that one,
but definitely remember sitting in the

01:36:48.800 --> 01:36:52.797
second one, Jesus and Santa.
>> So, when was the internet really in

01:36:52.880 --> 01:36:56.237
everybody's house? I got the internet
for the first time in 94. When did you

01:36:56.320 --> 01:36:57.277
get the internet?

01:36:57.360 --> 01:37:02.397
>> Uh 90 I got CompuServe first like AO

01:37:02.480 --> 01:37:05.437
it's like 95 96.
>> What was Comperve? What was the

01:37:05.520 --> 01:37:09.437
difference between that and >> it
was like AOL like chat rooms and

01:37:09.520 --> 01:37:14.067
>> Yeah, I had AOL. Yeah.
>> I still don't have the internet.

01:37:14.150 --> 01:37:16.317
[laughter] I still don't have it.
But I'm going to get

01:37:16.400 --> 01:37:19.357
>> You don't have internet at your house
>> this year. This year you gonna get it?

01:37:19.440 --> 01:37:22.397
>> I do. I do. >> I don't
use it, but I've got it.

01:37:22.480 --> 01:37:26.237
>> It's good to not use it. You're
smart about that [__] >> Oh, I can't.

01:37:26.320 --> 01:37:28.957
>> Yeah. >> I can't I
cannot read what people

01:37:29.040 --> 01:37:32.237
[__] say. And then every once in a

01:37:32.320 --> 01:37:36.637
while I think I can for a second and I'm
like, "No, you just don't put it down."

01:37:36.720 --> 01:37:39.197
cuz when we were raising money, by the

01:37:39.280 --> 01:37:41.037
way, I got to tell you, and I may have

01:37:41.120 --> 01:37:43.837
already told you, but

01:37:43.920 --> 01:37:46.237
uh you know, [snorts] when we bought the

01:37:46.320 --> 01:37:48.957
the uh SH, the Sherp or whatever the

01:37:49.040 --> 01:37:51.117
[__] it was, that fire truck,

01:37:51.200 --> 01:37:53.757
>> they used that one year later to save

01:37:53.840 --> 01:37:56.397
lives. One year later, that same storm

01:37:56.480 --> 01:37:58.317
system hit that same riverbed and they

01:37:58.400 --> 01:38:03.917
used that thing for days just and they
talked about it on the news. And then

01:38:04.000 --> 01:38:06.797
now they have two of them and they said
one of them was given by Joe Rogan and

01:38:06.880 --> 01:38:10.077
Ron White >> and I was that
made me so proud that we

01:38:10.160 --> 01:38:14.077
were able to do something that really
made a [__] difference, you know, and uh

01:38:14.160 --> 01:38:15.517
>> No, that's really
awesome. That's really

01:38:15.600 --> 01:38:19.277
awesome we could do that. I mean, that's
a no-brainer. That's a real thing that

01:38:19.360 --> 01:38:22.077
can help people. That's so cool.

01:38:22.160 --> 01:38:23.277
>> Those things look crazy, too.

01:38:23.360 --> 01:38:25.517
>> Oh, they're so fun, man. I took it down

01:38:25.600 --> 01:38:30.557
the river and [__] you go up any bank
over giant rocks. The thing will go in.

01:38:30.640 --> 01:38:33.357
You can't stop it. You just can't stop it.

01:38:33.440 --> 01:38:35.277
fun thing to have the [__] go sideways.

01:38:35.360 --> 01:38:37.037
That area gets hit a lot, right? Is that

01:38:37.120 --> 01:38:38.637
like Wimberly? Is that that area?

01:38:38.720 --> 01:38:44.237
>> Yeah. Well, you know, you really
It was that unique storm system, but it

01:38:44.320 --> 01:38:46.717
happened [__] twice.
>> There that baby is.

01:38:46.800 --> 01:38:48.957
>> Yeah. I don't know if I I don't know
if I sent this to you. I forgot. This is

01:38:49.040 --> 01:38:50.957
the one you guys got money for.

01:38:51.040 --> 01:38:54.397
>> That's it. That's the one we bought,
Ron. Look at that. That's so dope.

01:38:54.480 --> 01:38:58.477
>> That's the coolest thing.
>> Wow. That thing's incredible.

01:38:58.560 --> 01:39:00.477
Taking all those kids. That's so fun.

01:39:00.560 --> 01:39:04.157
Yeah, they they took that thing
all the way across Greenland,

01:39:04.240 --> 01:39:08.717
>> right across the middle of Greenland.
It took weeks and weeks to do it, but they

01:39:08.800 --> 01:39:11.117
took it all the way across. Just nothing

01:39:11.200 --> 01:39:16.077
stopping that son of a They put gas
in the tires and they can run it for only

01:39:16.160 --> 01:39:18.637
got a 55 horsepower motor. >> Oh wow.

01:39:18.720 --> 01:39:22.877
>> And uh but it's all torque,
so it doesn't go very fast, but it and it

01:39:22.960 --> 01:39:24.557
needs to get good gas mileage, right?

01:39:24.640 --> 01:39:27.597
Because it needs to get into weird places.
But they can put gas in those

01:39:27.680 --> 01:39:31.037
gigantic tires and uh off of that.

01:39:31.120 --> 01:39:34.477
>> So, you can suck the gas out of the
tire while you're driving. How do you even

01:39:34.560 --> 01:39:37.837
get the gas out of the tire?
>> Like, if the tire's spinning,

01:39:37.920 --> 01:39:40.397
>> I don't know how it works,
but >> that doesn't make any sense to me.

01:39:40.480 --> 01:39:42.237
>> Yeah. >> I'm trying
to figure out how that makes

01:39:42.320 --> 01:39:44.397
sense. Like, how are you going
to get the gas out of the tires?

01:39:44.480 --> 01:39:48.477
>> It It just I don't know. They rigged
up, I guess. I don't know. They got a line

01:39:48.560 --> 01:39:51.757
that goes to it.
>> But the line spinning if the tires

01:39:51.840 --> 01:39:52.317
spinning,

01:39:52.400 --> 01:39:56.157
>> but also the tires
deflate completely at

01:39:56.240 --> 01:39:59.277
night. I mean it it it'll and then it it

01:39:59.360 --> 01:40:03.437
airs itself back up. Uh >> wa do that.

01:40:03.520 --> 01:40:07.357
>> But I asked him a million questions
before I before I bought the [__]

01:40:07.440 --> 01:40:11.197
thing. >> Whoa.
Look at that thing. That's nuts.

01:40:11.280 --> 01:40:16.237
>> This is a video explaining the fuel
system. I don't know if I guess

01:40:16.320 --> 01:40:19.437
the rim. >> Each wheel has
its own tank. Each wheel

01:40:19.520 --> 01:40:21.837
has it own balances weight evenly so

01:40:21.920 --> 01:40:24.157
sharp doesn't tilt. Even if one [music]

01:40:24.240 --> 01:40:27.517
tank is empty, the shirt remains stable.

01:40:27.600 --> 01:40:30.877
Cool fact, tires are self-regulating

01:40:30.960 --> 01:40:32.877
while driving, they adjust air pressure

01:40:32.960 --> 01:40:35.517
via exhaust gas. No onboard compressor

01:40:35.600 --> 01:40:38.557
needed. So go ahead, shoot one tire.

01:40:38.640 --> 01:40:42.877
Shirp keeps rolling. >> Whoa.

01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:46.557
>> I guess it did not explain the >>
what's up with fuel in those sharp

01:40:46.640 --> 01:40:49.357
wheels. Let's break it down. If you

01:40:49.440 --> 01:40:54.717
shoot the tire, will it explode? Will
Sherp tilt if just one wheel has fuel?

01:40:54.800 --> 01:40:59.277
Yes, the fuel [music] is stored in the
wheel hubs separated from the air chamber.

01:40:59.360 --> 01:41:01.597
>> There's sealed tanks inside the rim.

01:41:01.680 --> 01:41:05.677
>> Each wheel has its own tank,
but the system balances weight evenly.

01:41:05.760 --> 01:41:08.637
>> There you go. >> Center of it.

01:41:08.720 --> 01:41:10.877
>> So, you have to take
them off to refuel.

01:41:10.960 --> 01:41:12.877
That's what it is. That makes more sense.

01:41:12.960 --> 01:41:16.957
>> Okay, >> that makes more sense.
Still very genius, [__]

01:41:17.040 --> 01:41:19.517
>> great way to store fuel. >> Yeah,
they're made in the Ukraine. And

01:41:19.600 --> 01:41:22.877
the guy told me we just take them out
to the front, let the Russians shoot at it

01:41:22.960 --> 01:41:26.877
and then bring it back and figure out
another way to build it that they just

01:41:26.960 --> 01:41:30.317
keep on going. They got plenty of room
to test it. And that's all mud out there

01:41:30.400 --> 01:41:33.837
anyway in the Ukraine. So they that's
you know that's where that was all

01:41:33.920 --> 01:41:37.037
conceived and and uh

01:41:37.120 --> 01:41:41.197
>> and cool as [__] You know what a what
a great [__] little vehicle. Nobody

01:41:41.280 --> 01:41:43.917
needs one really unless you live right
out there on the river and you want to

01:41:44.000 --> 01:41:47.437
help in a flood.
But uh >> or you got a crazy ranch.

01:41:47.520 --> 01:41:49.037
>> Crazy ranch. one of those guys.

01:41:49.120 --> 01:41:51.037
>> Just change where you're plugging into.

01:41:51.120 --> 01:41:55.357
>> Okay. So, he can do it right. You
don't have to take it off. You can just go

01:41:55.440 --> 01:41:57.757
right from those tanks. >> Okay.

01:41:57.840 --> 01:41:59.757
>> And that's how you pump fuel into your

01:41:59.840 --> 01:42:04.877
tank and drive it. That's nuts.

01:42:04.960 --> 01:42:08.157
Oh, if you have a crazy ranch or if
you're on a front line, it's probably a

01:42:08.240 --> 01:42:12.797
good vehicle to have. That Wimberly area
does get hit hard, right? They get those

01:42:12.880 --> 01:42:16.957
flash floods. Well, they [snorts] got
two of them, you know, and in almost

01:42:17.040 --> 01:42:21.437
exactly a year apart, both of them right
at Fourth of July weekend and um but I

01:42:21.520 --> 01:42:25.117
don't know if it it was supposed to be
like a thousand-year event and then it

01:42:25.200 --> 01:42:28.637
happened a year later and [laughter]
well that wasn't a thousand-y year event

01:42:28.720 --> 01:42:30.637
or a hundredyear flood or it was a

01:42:30.720 --> 01:42:33.277
one-year flood. But I don't know if it's

01:42:33.360 --> 01:42:35.917
a constant problem. I mean, yeah. Yeah.

01:42:36.000 --> 01:42:39.917
All those river if it gets
a storm stuck over that

01:42:40.000 --> 01:42:44.077
everything is granite, right? So it all
just [__] runs all over the place and

01:42:44.160 --> 01:42:47.917
feeds into the Guadalupy
and and then it goes nuts.

01:42:48.000 --> 01:42:52.157
>> Yeah, those flood zones are nuts when
you you see like what can happen like

01:42:52.240 --> 01:42:55.597
how high the water can get
to and how quick it can happen.

01:42:55.680 --> 01:42:57.757
>> Yeah, we we drove it just the other day

01:42:57.840 --> 01:43:00.717
and uh just to see still you can still

01:43:00.800 --> 01:43:05.597
see the devastation. But that camp
Mystic is just sitting right there. I

01:43:05.680 --> 01:43:09.277
didn't see it the first time I went
down there and uh but boy it's just right

01:43:09.360 --> 01:43:11.277
there with Camp Mystic written right in

01:43:11.360 --> 01:43:16.397
big letters right on it and I'm like
god damn how could they not see that that

01:43:16.480 --> 01:43:18.237
>> might be a problem
but it never had been

01:43:18.320 --> 01:43:22.797
you know it had to take the worst
thing and the worst place and you know

01:43:22.880 --> 01:43:24.637
communication out there and I know they

01:43:24.720 --> 01:43:26.877
blame a lot of it on somebody Biden or

01:43:26.960 --> 01:43:29.997
somebody but but it really was not

01:43:30.080 --> 01:43:33.437
foreseeable you know the

01:43:33.520 --> 01:43:35.917
from from my perspective And I I really

01:43:36.000 --> 01:43:40.157
did look at it. I mean, I I I did uh you

01:43:40.240 --> 01:43:44.397
know, I I I I I gathered as much
information as I could and I'm like,

01:43:44.480 --> 01:43:47.517
"Yeah, they they couldn't
have done anything about that."

01:43:47.600 --> 01:43:50.077
>> Just a horrible horrible [__] thing.

01:43:50.160 --> 01:43:54.237
But um you know, life goes on. We all

01:43:54.320 --> 01:43:57.997
learn lessons. And um you know,
I I don't think that Mystic Camp will ever

01:43:58.080 --> 01:44:01.357
open again, which is too bad.
>> It tried opening up again.

01:44:01.440 --> 01:44:03.837
>> Yeah. I think too many
people bucked up against it now.

01:44:03.920 --> 01:44:07.197
>> Yeah. Well, >> such
understand gorgeous place though

01:44:07.280 --> 01:44:10.797
right there on the [__] river. It was
there for a hundred years or something.

01:44:10.880 --> 01:44:13.117
I mean it >> that's nuts.

01:44:13.200 --> 01:44:14.957
>> Yeah. But uh

01:44:15.040 --> 01:44:18.397
>> did you see that um that crazy uh

01:44:18.480 --> 01:44:21.677
avalanche that broke the dam in Nepal?

01:44:21.760 --> 01:44:25.917
>> Yeah, I was over there when that
happened and I mean not in Nepal but I

01:44:26.000 --> 01:44:30.077
mean I was overseas and it was every
news cycle was just nothing about that.

01:44:30.160 --> 01:44:32.317
>> That's ins that was insane.
And I wonder

01:44:32.400 --> 01:44:37.917
if that situation is in other places up
there where there the big ice dams and

01:44:38.000 --> 01:44:41.197
whatever. I mean, I wonder if that's
going to be something that happens as

01:44:41.280 --> 01:44:44.077
those glacier caps start to melt and

01:44:44.160 --> 01:44:47.117
they are melting because the the rivers

01:44:47.200 --> 01:44:52.077
were running like crazy when I was uh
in Switzerland and and they were worried

01:44:52.160 --> 01:44:56.077
about it because normally they would
not be getting that much water, but those

01:44:56.160 --> 01:44:57.997
ice they had a really hot summer and

01:44:58.080 --> 01:44:59.757
those ice caps are keeping those rivers

01:44:59.840 --> 01:45:03.117
running. You imagine your your whole

01:45:03.200 --> 01:45:07.357
city's existence is tied to whether
or not you have an avalanche.

01:45:07.440 --> 01:45:11.757
>> Yeah. >> And you're sitting there
like please please no rock slides.

01:45:11.840 --> 01:45:14.077
>> Yeah. >> I think
the rock slide is it is that

01:45:14.160 --> 01:45:18.237
what caused the Nepal thing? There
was an avalanche that came down and and

01:45:18.320 --> 01:45:22.477
[__] up the dam. Is that what it >> No,
the avalanche came down and blocked

01:45:22.560 --> 01:45:24.397
and that's what made the lake. Then the

01:45:24.480 --> 01:45:26.717
glacier broke off and landed in the lake

01:45:26.800 --> 01:45:29.917
and busted that down the down the chute.

01:45:30.000 --> 01:45:31.757
So, there were actually two events.

01:45:31.840 --> 01:45:35.757
>> Oh, >> the the rock
slide made a lake, then the

01:45:35.840 --> 01:45:38.717
>> How long did it take
for everything to happen?

01:45:38.800 --> 01:45:40.557
>> Well, I mean, once it broke.

01:45:40.640 --> 01:45:43.197
>> No, but it was [clears throat] really
quick with the rock slide, like between

01:45:43.280 --> 01:45:44.957
the rock >> I don't know.
I don't know what the

01:45:45.040 --> 01:45:47.757
distance was between the rock
slide and the and the avalanche.

01:45:47.840 --> 01:45:51.117
>> [__] man. >> But it
was a pretty big lake. And uh

01:45:51.200 --> 01:45:55.037
>> the water watching the water
wash over those people was insane.

01:45:55.120 --> 01:45:57.917
>> It was horrible. >> Insane.
And the speed in which it came

01:45:58.000 --> 01:46:01.277
and the volume. Oh, just knocking things

01:46:01.360 --> 01:46:04.957
completely down. >> Shattered
ice and rock flowed down at

01:46:05.040 --> 01:46:07.597
speeds approaching 150 km an hour,

01:46:07.680 --> 01:46:09.517
kicking off a flood that raised water

01:46:09.600 --> 01:46:13.437
levels as much as 9 m in 30 minutes.

01:46:13.520 --> 01:46:17.517
>> 30 minutes. Oh, >> duck.

01:46:17.600 --> 01:46:21.117
>> It's just the way it w like this idea
people have like, oh, the water's

01:46:21.200 --> 01:46:25.517
coming. You'd be able to run like >> no,
you know, we watched that video

01:46:25.600 --> 01:46:29.117
like, oh, you don't have a chance. You
can't go anywhere. There's no there just

01:46:29.200 --> 01:46:35.037
nowhere to hide. And the volume was a
wall just a giant like a building size

01:46:35.120 --> 01:46:39.677
wall of water.
>> Boulders and logs and ice,

01:46:39.760 --> 01:46:43.757
>> cars and everything.
And you're just going to get crushed.

01:46:43.840 --> 01:46:45.517
>> It's not just water. >> Yeah.

01:46:45.600 --> 01:46:49.357
>> It's everything the water's
carrying with it. Insanely heavy [__]

01:46:49.440 --> 01:46:53.037
>> Stupid. Stupid [snorts] [__]

01:46:53.120 --> 01:46:56.317
mayhem. Just total mayhem. Yeah, natural

01:46:56.400 --> 01:46:58.477
disasters are [__] crazy. When you

01:46:58.560 --> 01:47:01.277
see all the meteor spots on Earth, all

01:47:01.360 --> 01:47:04.717
the little all the little [__] holes

01:47:04.800 --> 01:47:09.517
in the ground that where they, you know,
like this one Australia that they didn't

01:47:09.600 --> 01:47:11.357
discover until fairly recently.

01:47:11.440 --> 01:47:14.717
>> I saw something on that.
>> Look at that. Hit by an asteroid right

01:47:14.800 --> 01:47:16.397
there. Huh. When did that happen?

01:47:16.480 --> 01:47:18.157
>> An asteroid the size of a house.

01:47:18.240 --> 01:47:21.437
>> Yeah, it was one one in Nevada.
This crazy one in Nevada. It's just this

01:47:21.520 --> 01:47:26.157
[__] gigantic crater. >> Have you
ever seen that one? Yeah, I've seen it.

01:47:26.240 --> 01:47:29.197
>> [__] man.
How how often does that happen?

01:47:29.280 --> 01:47:32.797
>> I don't think it's happened in a long
time. And we hope it's going to be a

01:47:32.880 --> 01:47:34.397
little while before it happens again.

01:47:34.480 --> 01:47:38.077
>> The time scale of Earth is so vast and

01:47:38.160 --> 01:47:42.637
the time scale of a person is so small
that many many people can die, live and

01:47:42.720 --> 01:47:45.997
die, live and die, live and die and it
doesn't happen. And we say, "Oh, the

01:47:46.080 --> 01:47:48.397
odds of it happening very low." But

01:47:48.480 --> 01:47:51.117
really, it's just random. it can happen.

01:47:51.200 --> 01:47:54.557
And if it does, boom,
no more civilization.

01:47:54.640 --> 01:47:57.037
>> Well, yeah, but now we
could shoot them down, right?

01:47:57.120 --> 01:47:59.677
>> No, >> we can't.
>> No, >> we can't stop them.

01:47:59.760 --> 01:48:03.837
>> I don't think they're ready for that
yet. No, I don't think um they're ready

01:48:03.920 --> 01:48:07.997
in any way to stop something big that's
headed our way. I don't think so. I

01:48:08.080 --> 01:48:11.997
think they have some theories. They've
never done it. Uh, I don't know how much

01:48:12.080 --> 01:48:16.637
time, effort, and or resources have
been put into making sure that if a

01:48:16.720 --> 01:48:20.477
civilization killer asteroid has coming
our way that we can all join together

01:48:20.560 --> 01:48:24.557
and launch rockets from China and Russia
and everywhere else and knock that thing

01:48:24.640 --> 01:48:27.677
off course. I don't know.
>> Put Elon on it.

01:48:27.760 --> 01:48:32.077
>> Yeah, >> he'll fix it. >> He might be
able to. He might be one of the only guys

01:48:32.160 --> 01:48:35.757
>> Yep. >> that can figure out how to stop
something like that. But I don't know if

01:48:35.840 --> 01:48:38.957
they even know when those things are
coming. You know, some of them are

01:48:39.040 --> 01:48:40.397
coming from behind the sun and they

01:48:40.480 --> 01:48:42.397
don't see them until it's too late.

01:48:42.480 --> 01:48:46.637
>> What do you think about uh uh

01:48:46.720 --> 01:48:51.837
limiting how much people
can contribute to a political

01:48:51.920 --> 01:48:56.717
party? >> I think I I
think I think if anybody

01:48:56.800 --> 01:49:00.237
there should be a set amount that
anybody can donate and if they donate

01:49:00.320 --> 01:49:01.997
one dime more than that, they're hung by

01:49:02.080 --> 01:49:05.197
the neck until dead [laughter] is that's

01:49:05.280 --> 01:49:09.837
what I think. and and keep keep
the billionaires out of politics.

01:49:09.920 --> 01:49:13.837
>> Um I think also you could say
the same thing about corporations and then

01:49:13.920 --> 01:49:17.997
>> absolutely >> also you could
say the same thing about lobbyists.

01:49:18.080 --> 01:49:19.757
>> Absolutely. There's a lot of influence

01:49:19.840 --> 01:49:21.437
on our politics that I think should be

01:49:21.520 --> 01:49:26.157
eliminated. And money in politics is is

01:49:26.240 --> 01:49:30.477
it's so ingrained. It's so entangled in

01:49:30.560 --> 01:49:34.237
politics. Like the idea of removing it
entirely seems ridiculous to people. But

01:49:34.320 --> 01:49:38.557
if it didn't exist and you said, "Hey,
what do you think about like letting

01:49:38.640 --> 01:49:42.317
corporations, you know, those ones
that dump [__] into rivers and pollute

01:49:42.400 --> 01:49:45.597
ecosystems and do a lot of funky [__]
in third world countries they're not

01:49:45.680 --> 01:49:46.877
supposed to do? What do you think about

01:49:46.960 --> 01:49:49.997
having them contribute so much money to

01:49:50.080 --> 01:49:54.637
our politics that they have incredible
influence over regulations that get

01:49:54.720 --> 01:49:56.957
passed? >> Absolutely.
>> What a great idea.

01:49:57.040 --> 01:49:59.437
>> Yeah. [laughter] I wish I was one.

01:49:59.520 --> 01:50:01.277
>> Nobody would say
that's a good idea. You

01:50:01.360 --> 01:50:05.357
would say, "No, let's keep money out
of it and make sure that all laws that get

01:50:05.440 --> 01:50:07.917
passed are for the benefit
of the society and the people."

01:50:08.000 --> 01:50:11.757
>> Absolutely. >> Not individual
corporations or individual people.

01:50:11.840 --> 01:50:14.237
>> Yeah. Definitely not.
And then you would

01:50:14.320 --> 01:50:15.837
you go even further than that. You'd

01:50:15.920 --> 01:50:19.037
say, "Well, let's let's make sure that

01:50:19.120 --> 01:50:24.237
the people that are doing the job are
compensated fairly but are not allowed

01:50:24.320 --> 01:50:29.757
to insider trade." >> Yeah. [laughter]
Isn't that >> We're being grifted, Joe.

01:50:29.840 --> 01:50:31.677
>> 100%. >> We are being grifted.

01:50:31.760 --> 01:50:33.437
>> No if ends or buts about that.

01:50:33.520 --> 01:50:37.997
>> I was listening to this uh story
was really about Chinese politics

01:50:38.080 --> 01:50:42.637
and I don't I don't think communism
is the answer to anything. But you don't

01:50:42.720 --> 01:50:46.317
just it's not a the leader is not
a popularity contest. That's somebody

01:50:46.400 --> 01:50:49.917
that's been in this business for 40 years,
you know, that knows how to run a

01:50:50.000 --> 01:50:53.837
country. It's not a just here's this guy,
we'll let this guy do it. Everybody

01:50:53.920 --> 01:50:56.237
seems to like this guy. Uh, you know, it

01:50:56.320 --> 01:50:58.317
is all comes from the ground up. You

01:50:58.400 --> 01:51:01.597
know, you're and China works pretty

01:51:01.680 --> 01:51:03.917
well, I think. You know, I I don't know.

01:51:04.000 --> 01:51:08.397
I've never been there, but uh it makes
sense that people in those powerful jobs

01:51:08.480 --> 01:51:10.397
should have a lot of experience

01:51:10.480 --> 01:51:13.357
>> that but they also can't be removed and

01:51:13.440 --> 01:51:18.397
they have total power. And if you say
anything about the government, they will

01:51:18.480 --> 01:51:20.157
literally put you in a prison somewhere.

01:51:20.240 --> 01:51:21.597
They'll put you in a camp somewhere.

01:51:21.680 --> 01:51:25.917
They've removed people. They've silenced
people. They've even billionaires,

01:51:26.000 --> 01:51:29.917
they've made them disappear. You can't
step out of line. And the cover the

01:51:30.000 --> 01:51:33.357
government and the businesses work
handinand glove. That's it. Period.

01:51:33.440 --> 01:51:37.277
There's no government no business
that works without the influence of the

01:51:37.360 --> 01:51:41.437
government over there. So there's
they have giant problems too, but they

01:51:41.520 --> 01:51:44.237
probably have better leadership in terms

01:51:44.320 --> 01:51:48.637
of like strengthening their country,
but it's terrible for freedom.

01:51:48.720 --> 01:51:52.317
>> What you need is like I've heard
the argument and I I don't agree with it,

01:51:52.400 --> 01:51:55.757
but what you need is great leaders,
right? But what you need is like a

01:51:55.840 --> 01:51:59.277
benevolent dictator. [laughter] Like
someone who really does care, someone

01:51:59.360 --> 01:52:03.437
who really is a good person and and
genuinely doesn't want for anything or

01:52:03.520 --> 01:52:06.637
need for anything and just wants to try
to make their mark and make the world a

01:52:06.720 --> 01:52:08.557
better place. >> Yeah.
>> That doesn't exist.

01:52:08.640 --> 01:52:10.477
>> It doesn't. And why not? Why not?

01:52:10.560 --> 01:52:11.757
>> I don't know.
Because most of the people

01:52:11.840 --> 01:52:14.317
that get the job, they that's not who

01:52:14.400 --> 01:52:17.197
they are. Most of the people are either

01:52:17.280 --> 01:52:19.917
wararmongers or [__] hounds. They're p

01:52:20.000 --> 01:52:24.797
power brokers. There are people who want
the feeling of being the top dog. You

01:52:24.880 --> 01:52:27.757
know, that's those those are the people
that generally get to those positions

01:52:27.840 --> 01:52:30.877
and those are the ones that because this
the struggle is so hard to get there and

01:52:30.960 --> 01:52:34.557
then they're going to tear you down and
attack you and pull up things from your

01:52:34.640 --> 01:52:37.277
past and most people don't want to go
through that. And so a lot of people

01:52:37.360 --> 01:52:39.997
that may be good leaders
never want that position,

01:52:40.080 --> 01:52:42.637
>> right? Because it's a [__] job
>> and it doesn't even pay well.

01:52:42.720 --> 01:52:44.397
>> Yeah. It's like it
pays a half a million

01:52:44.480 --> 01:52:48.557
dollars a year and these guys that are
which is good money for a real job but

01:52:48.640 --> 01:52:51.037
like if you're being the president
of the United States you're around

01:52:51.120 --> 01:52:54.237
billionaires and there's all this
influence and and then they leave the

01:52:54.320 --> 01:52:58.397
job and then they get these speaking gigs.
So they talk at a conference of

01:52:58.480 --> 01:53:01.277
bankers for a half million bucks.
You're like what >> right?

01:53:01.360 --> 01:53:04.797
>> What is this? What is this shenanigans

01:53:04.880 --> 01:53:08.557
that you're involved in? It's the way
it is. The job doesn't pay much, but the

01:53:08.640 --> 01:53:10.877
job pays a lot, you know, if if you work

01:53:10.960 --> 01:53:16.440
it that way. You know,
>> they all leave rich.

01:53:16.720 --> 01:53:19.677
Jimmy Carter was like the only one that

01:53:19.760 --> 01:53:21.917
like kind of stayed reasonable his whole

01:53:22.000 --> 01:53:27.357
life. He he never became a rich guy
after he left office. He basically

01:53:27.440 --> 01:53:29.917
that's who he was.
>> He stayed the same way.

01:53:30.000 --> 01:53:32.557
>> I think Terico might
be one of those guys.

01:53:32.640 --> 01:53:34.957
>> Well, I would hope so. you know, um,

01:53:35.040 --> 01:53:39.677
look, it's always good
to assume the best about people.

01:53:39.760 --> 01:53:43.517
He said some things that I
think are questionable.

01:53:43.600 --> 01:53:45.757
>> Yeah. But, you know, God is non-binary.

01:53:45.840 --> 01:53:48.317
He said that one time. And then people

01:53:48.400 --> 01:53:53.197
were like, I don't know what non-binary
means and that makes me nervous. And

01:53:53.280 --> 01:53:55.757
>> I get what he's saying
there that God is a is not.

01:53:55.840 --> 01:53:57.677
>> It doesn't matter if
it's a man or a woman.

01:53:57.760 --> 01:54:00.077
>> It's God.
It's an infinite loving force.

01:54:00.160 --> 01:54:02.477
It's not as simple as >> I get it, too.

01:54:02.560 --> 01:54:06.637
>> I get what he's saying. And it's just
what you're saying is also like you're,

01:54:06.720 --> 01:54:11.197
you know, I get people that want to say
they're not a man or a woman. You I feel

01:54:11.280 --> 01:54:15.917
like you should say whatever you want to
say. But to say that that's a thing is a

01:54:16.000 --> 01:54:20.077
different thing. Like this like if
you're a biologist and you say there's

01:54:20.160 --> 01:54:25.277
non-binary people, like are there like
what are we saying? There's XX and XY

01:54:25.360 --> 01:54:26.877
and there's people that are interex.

01:54:26.960 --> 01:54:30.477
There's people that have this this weird
thing like there's women that are born

01:54:30.560 --> 01:54:34.077
XY. Uh, so they're a man,
but they have like

01:54:34.160 --> 01:54:35.837
some they have their testicles inside of

01:54:35.920 --> 01:54:38.637
their bodies and they also have androgen

01:54:38.720 --> 01:54:41.357
resistant genetics somehow or another.

01:54:41.440 --> 01:54:46.237
So they never become like masculine
and they look really feminine, but

01:54:46.320 --> 01:54:49.997
they're essentially XY chromosome
is weirdness. That's that's really what

01:54:50.080 --> 01:54:53.517
like non-binary is. That's real
non-binary. That's like very strange.

01:54:53.600 --> 01:54:56.797
That's like >> your interex.
But some people just don't

01:54:56.880 --> 01:55:00.077
feel comfortable in their skin and they
don't want to be labeled a male or a

01:55:00.160 --> 01:55:03.837
female. they just want to be whatever
they are, which is fine. But when you're

01:55:03.920 --> 01:55:07.437
talking about biology, I think we have
to be able to make a distinction. We

01:55:07.520 --> 01:55:09.677
have to know like what we're actually

01:55:09.760 --> 01:55:14.477
talking about. You know, facts over
feelings. Feelings are fine. Like you

01:55:14.560 --> 01:55:18.317
should be able to say what you call
yourself Carol or Bob or whatever you

01:55:18.400 --> 01:55:21.437
want to do, man. You want to be
a man now. Okay, you're a man.

01:55:21.520 --> 01:55:24.557
>> I'm cool with that. But let's not, you

01:55:24.640 --> 01:55:26.557
know, let let's not let the nonsense

01:55:26.640 --> 01:55:29.997
invade the the actual analysis of what

01:55:30.080 --> 01:55:34.477
we're talking about. And some of what
we're talking about is just dysphoria.

01:55:34.560 --> 01:55:39.277
It's gender dysphoria. That's what it's
always been described as, which is, you

01:55:39.360 --> 01:55:42.157
know, there's a lot of things that people
have wrong with them. It doesn't

01:55:42.240 --> 01:55:44.237
mean that, you know, they're bad people.

01:55:44.320 --> 01:55:46.877
It doesn't mean that, you know, should
alienate them and they shouldn't have

01:55:46.960 --> 01:55:49.677
rights. And that's no one's saying that.

01:55:49.760 --> 01:55:52.717
You're saying like, "No, you can't
compete in the women's division because

01:55:52.800 --> 01:55:54.637
you're not. You're a biological man."

01:55:54.720 --> 01:55:58.157
And I know you wish you were a woman
and I know you want to be identified as a

01:55:58.240 --> 01:56:01.997
woman. That's great. But when it comes to
sports, >> right, when it comes to tennis,

01:56:02.080 --> 01:56:05.517
>> Yeah. Stop stop the nonsense.
And this is,

01:56:05.600 --> 01:56:10.157
>> you know, it's just there's a lot
of like weird [__] that goes along with

01:56:10.240 --> 01:56:14.957
compassion, you know, where people don't
want to look at reality because reality

01:56:15.040 --> 01:56:19.197
itself is not compassionate. The reality
itself is like, you know, you are

01:56:19.280 --> 01:56:23.197
discriminatory, you're transphobic,
you're this, you're that. Like, okay,

01:56:23.280 --> 01:56:25.517
I'm not that's not what we're saying.

01:56:25.600 --> 01:56:29.597
Like, we're saying like, you got to be
reasonable. And reasonable is you've got

01:56:29.680 --> 01:56:33.677
to know what's the difference between
a sex offender who decides he's a woman

01:56:33.760 --> 01:56:38.877
and wants to hang around with women
versus a guy who has gender dysphobia,

01:56:38.960 --> 01:56:42.557
dysphoria, and wants to be recognized
as a woman. Two different things. And if I

01:56:42.640 --> 01:56:47.037
get it wrong, forgive me, you know,
if I don't call you the right name or

01:56:47.120 --> 01:56:50.957
whatever, I I suggest you try to grow
a pretty thick skin because people are

01:56:51.040 --> 01:56:52.957
always going to be mean, you know. So,

01:56:53.040 --> 01:56:54.957
just let it run down your back. I mean,

01:56:55.040 --> 01:57:00.077
I've got thick skin, you know. Uh >>
it's a complicated conversation because

01:57:00.160 --> 01:57:03.037
it's not one that we all thought we
were going to have 20 years ago. No, that

01:57:03.120 --> 01:57:04.877
that was going to be at the forefront of

01:57:04.960 --> 01:57:07.757
society discussion about gender. Like,

01:57:07.840 --> 01:57:12.397
>> it's odd. It's very odd. I just I don't
like it being promoted for young people

01:57:12.480 --> 01:57:15.837
because young people are getting
surgeries and taking chemical castration

01:57:15.920 --> 01:57:19.277
drugs and doing which is essentially
what hormone blockers are. They're the

01:57:19.360 --> 01:57:22.637
same category of drugs they use for sex

01:57:22.720 --> 01:57:26.957
offenders when they chemically castrate
them, it's [__] To do that to kids is

01:57:27.040 --> 01:57:30.157
[__] Do that to kids that don't know
what they're doing yet. They're they're

01:57:30.240 --> 01:57:33.597
they're confused. And there's a lot
of dransitioners, man. There's a lot of

01:57:33.680 --> 01:57:36.397
people that went through that and
really wish they didn't. And they get

01:57:36.480 --> 01:57:38.237
ostracized from the trans community.

01:57:38.320 --> 01:57:42.637
They get ostracized from progressive
communities. They get they get told they

01:57:42.720 --> 01:57:45.757
were never trans to begin with. Like
what does that mean? Like what are you

01:57:45.840 --> 01:57:47.837
what are you saying? This is not like

01:57:47.920 --> 01:57:49.517
you're saying someone's not black or not

01:57:49.600 --> 01:57:54.317
white. Like just traits that are just

01:57:54.400 --> 01:57:57.037
they are what they are. You have,
you know, you have blonde hair, you have

01:57:57.120 --> 01:58:00.077
black hair. This is like what you're
born with. To say you are not really

01:58:00.160 --> 01:58:01.917
transgender. It's like what the [__] are

01:58:02.000 --> 01:58:05.117
you saying? You're making someone do

01:58:05.200 --> 01:58:09.437
something to their body.
You're doing something to them through

01:58:09.520 --> 01:58:14.477
surgery or through chemicals. Like this
is to say that you're not really one of

01:58:14.560 --> 01:58:19.277
you're not really transgender.
You just did it. Like what?

01:58:19.360 --> 01:58:21.517
>> I I don't know. How about recognize
the [clears throat] fact that people are

01:58:21.600 --> 01:58:25.197
easily influenced and sometimes people
make mistakes and sometimes people get

01:58:25.280 --> 01:58:29.117
convinced or convince themselves that
they're they should do something because

01:58:29.200 --> 01:58:34.477
it's it's fashionable in society and it's
it's culturally relevant currently.

01:58:34.560 --> 01:58:37.837
>> Yeah. Yeah. You know,
I'm not for any of that,

01:58:37.920 --> 01:58:41.117
but I mean I I think try to be fair, try

01:58:41.200 --> 01:58:44.077
to be nice and and you know, let them do

01:58:44.160 --> 01:58:46.157
whatever the [__] they want to do. But

01:58:46.240 --> 01:58:48.397
but even uh Taler Rico is against having

01:58:48.480 --> 01:58:51.917
any kind of surgery before 18. And uh

01:58:52.000 --> 01:58:54.957
same as Paxin, but Paxton didn't cost

01:58:55.040 --> 01:58:58.717
this uh Terico didn't cost this state $6

01:58:58.800 --> 01:59:03.437
million in uh fines and lawsuits, and

01:59:03.520 --> 01:59:06.797
that happened to Paxon. So,
>> how did he cost what did he do?

01:59:06.880 --> 01:59:10.637
>> Paxton? >> Yeah.
What did he do that cost $6 million?

01:59:10.720 --> 01:59:14.077
>> [snorts] >> Well, uh,
back in 2020, uh, eight of his

01:59:14.160 --> 01:59:16.397
assistants turned him into the FBI for

01:59:16.480 --> 01:59:18.957
fraud. One of them was a 50-year Texas

01:59:19.040 --> 01:59:21.517
Ranger. He fired that guy. Five decades

01:59:21.600 --> 01:59:24.317
of service in the Texas Rangers. Well,

01:59:24.400 --> 01:59:26.237
that guy sued him and [clears throat]

01:59:26.320 --> 01:59:29.357
uh, and they they fired four of the

01:59:29.440 --> 01:59:32.077
eight people that that turned him in. He

01:59:32.160 --> 01:59:35.037
did, and fired him. And then he realized

01:59:35.120 --> 01:59:39.757
that he was going to get [__] sued
over it. and uh he came up with a

01:59:39.840 --> 01:59:43.197
solution. He was going
to give them $3 million

01:59:43.280 --> 01:59:45.277
uh to settle this case and then the

01:59:45.360 --> 01:59:47.037
house said, "No, it's not coming from

01:59:47.120 --> 01:59:50.877
us." And then they sued one $6 million.

01:59:50.960 --> 01:59:53.517
And guess who paid that $6 million? You

01:59:53.600 --> 01:59:56.877
and me. Uh paid the $6 million for his

01:59:56.960 --> 01:59:59.117
bribery and how he ever got out of this

01:59:59.200 --> 02:00:01.597
stuff. He was impeached by the House.

02:00:01.680 --> 02:00:04.557
His own party impeached him. 121 votes

02:00:04.640 --> 02:00:07.437
to 22 and then the Senate put him back

02:00:07.520 --> 02:00:12.237
in because they didn't want to lose the
seat. And uh but he's a criminal, just a

02:00:12.320 --> 02:00:16.877
piece of [__] And uh >> I don't
know enough about him, but I do

02:00:16.960 --> 02:00:20.237
know that they're surprised that Taler
Rico's ahead of him in the polls.

02:00:20.320 --> 02:00:22.557
>> I'm not I think that people are sick of

02:00:22.640 --> 02:00:25.597
what's going on right now in Texas.

02:00:25.680 --> 02:00:29.677
They they've been in control for 30
years. What have they given us? Let

02:00:29.760 --> 02:00:35.117
somebody else [__] drive. uh you know
I they're jacking with my marijuana and

02:00:35.200 --> 02:00:38.637
I'm ready to get them out.
>> The marijuana thing is just so stupid

02:00:38.720 --> 02:00:42.717
cuz if you look at the national polls
it's something in the range of 70% of

02:00:42.800 --> 02:00:46.317
the people think it should be legal,
>> right? And and we should decide, right?

02:00:46.400 --> 02:00:50.317
We the people should decide. >> Yeah.
And if you find out that these

02:00:50.400 --> 02:00:53.197
people who are making these decisions
have been influenced by the alcohol

02:00:53.280 --> 02:00:57.277
lobby or by anybody else, >> hung
by the neck until dead. That's what

02:00:57.360 --> 02:01:01.517
I'm saying. [laughter] Let's get
some severe penalties in there.

02:01:01.600 --> 02:01:05.837
>> It's corruption and it's bad for us
and it's also bad for the look of Texas.

02:01:05.920 --> 02:01:08.157
Texas is supposed to be
a place that's about freedom

02:01:08.240 --> 02:01:11.277
>> and it is in a lot of ways
but in that way it's definitely not.

02:01:11.360 --> 02:01:13.837
>> No. >> And it's
definitely stupid. Again, we

02:01:13.920 --> 02:01:19.677
looked at what California is making just
the tax revenue $7 billion B with a B

02:01:19.760 --> 02:01:23.437
>> with a B. >> Yeah.
And is there some enormous

02:01:23.520 --> 02:01:26.077
problems that have taken place since No.

02:01:26.160 --> 02:01:28.637
No. You know what is the the problem is

02:01:28.720 --> 02:01:31.277
alcohol sales are down. That's the

02:01:31.360 --> 02:01:33.997
problem. That's what got it all stirred

02:01:34.080 --> 02:01:36.397
up. Alcohol's tanking it right now. I

02:01:36.480 --> 02:01:39.197
mean, wine, liquor, tequila, all of it

02:01:39.280 --> 02:01:43.917
is is 20% or more off.
>> What do you think is the cause of that?

02:01:44.000 --> 02:01:47.837
>> Well, it's that younger generation just
doesn't feel the need to go get hammered

02:01:47.920 --> 02:01:51.917
every night. They don't have
the wallet for it. The kids are broke.

02:01:52.000 --> 02:01:53.917
>> You know, they got $80,000 worth of

02:01:54.000 --> 02:01:58.957
[__] school debt that your kids don't
have. and my kid doesn't have and uh you

02:01:59.040 --> 02:02:02.317
know there's just no money for it.
And then they they go to these clubs and

02:02:02.400 --> 02:02:06.477
they like to smoke some weed and
[laughter] and go in there and not drink

02:02:06.560 --> 02:02:09.437
and I you know >> also
they don't like hangovers.

02:02:09.520 --> 02:02:11.277
>> Yeah. And I'm I'm
right there with them.

02:02:11.360 --> 02:02:15.437
I mean I I think it's a better way.
I mean I can't go through this life

02:02:15.520 --> 02:02:17.597
without some kind of buzz. I need it.

02:02:17.680 --> 02:02:22.637
And uh [laughter] but liquor was the
wrong one for me. And I've just found

02:02:22.720 --> 02:02:26.957
better ways. You know, there's more than
one way to skin a goddamn cat. And uh

02:02:27.040 --> 02:02:30.157
>> I know. And the only reason why
that stuff is illegal is corruption. It's

02:02:30.240 --> 02:02:33.597
stupid. All of it. Whether it's
marijuana or mushrooms or all these

02:02:33.680 --> 02:02:38.317
things. You should we should understand
them, study them, and they benefit a lot

02:02:38.400 --> 02:02:39.997
of people and they should be legal.

02:02:40.080 --> 02:02:43.837
Period. Everybody who thinks not either
hasn't done them or doesn't know what

02:02:43.920 --> 02:02:47.437
they're talking about or is coming from
a very authoritarian perspective where

02:02:47.520 --> 02:02:50.477
you think the government should be
allowed to control people's behavior.

02:02:50.560 --> 02:02:51.997
And I think that's [__] ridiculous.

02:02:52.080 --> 02:02:54.717
Yeah, I think it's [__]
ridiculous, too, Joe.

02:02:54.800 --> 02:02:56.957
>> [__] ridiculous.
Glad >> we're on the right page, >> son.

02:02:57.040 --> 02:02:58.397
>> I said I'm glad
we're on the right page.

02:02:58.480 --> 02:03:02.637
>> Yeah, we're on the same page,
man. We're on the same page.

02:03:02.720 --> 02:03:04.397
>> You think cameras have
anything to do with it?

02:03:04.480 --> 02:03:06.477
>> What do you mean? >> People
recording people doing dumb [__]

02:03:06.560 --> 02:03:10.397
and not being free to be >> Oh,
that that stops people from getting drunk.

02:03:10.480 --> 02:03:13.197
>> Yeah, maybe. >> Nah,
>> never stopped me.

02:03:13.280 --> 02:03:15.357
>> I'm talking about the kids. You
were talking about kids. I was thinking,

02:03:15.440 --> 02:03:18.477
>> you think so? [clears throat] >>
Is that what you think? I'm sort of was

02:03:18.560 --> 02:03:21.997
asking like could be afraid
to be caught doing dumb [__] and

02:03:22.080 --> 02:03:25.597
>> well [snorts] people are very aware
of being caught and getting embarrassed

02:03:25.680 --> 02:03:28.637
because so many people
have gone viral these days.

02:03:28.720 --> 02:03:31.517
>> Maybe maybe it's a factor.
It's possible.

02:03:31.600 --> 02:03:36.077
>> What did they do to Jelly Roll, man?
I poor Jelly Roll. All he did was say the

02:03:36.160 --> 02:03:39.117
president was a fat pig like me.
That's what he said.

02:03:39.200 --> 02:03:43.037
>> Yeah. And then he said, "If you're
a Trump supporter, don't listen to my

02:03:43.120 --> 02:03:45.037
music." >> Well,
that was after they canceled him

02:03:45.120 --> 02:03:48.397
anyway. And so he I I mean I'm not

02:03:48.480 --> 02:03:51.437
really I like Jelly Roll fine. I don't

02:03:51.520 --> 02:03:53.757
know him that well, but you know, but I

02:03:53.840 --> 02:03:57.197
wasn't a big listener anyway. But I've

02:03:57.280 --> 02:04:01.517
met him a couple times. Seemed like
a nice guy. My boy, they went nuts.

02:04:01.600 --> 02:04:04.477
>> Yeah, >> I mean nuts.
Get him out of here. Never

02:04:04.560 --> 02:04:07.677
listen to his music. What did he say?

02:04:07.760 --> 02:04:09.357
>> I didn't see what
he said. I heard about

02:04:09.440 --> 02:04:11.677
it. Um but Jelly Roll is a sweetheart.

02:04:11.760 --> 02:04:15.597
He's I wouldn't have advised him to say
that there. wouldn't have either. I've

02:04:15.680 --> 02:04:18.637
always been careful with
that kind of stuff, you know,

02:04:18.720 --> 02:04:21.917
>> that don't don't be stupid,
Ron. Don't be stupid.

02:04:22.000 --> 02:04:26.317
>> Well, he was on the Jimmy Kimmel show,
right? So, he was doing a monologue. I

02:04:26.400 --> 02:04:28.797
don't even know if he wrote it.
You know, it could have been the writers

02:04:28.880 --> 02:04:32.717
from the Jimmy Kimmel show who are
obviously very anti-Trump. Like, or at

02:04:32.800 --> 02:04:35.757
least Kimmel is very openly anti-Trump.

02:04:35.840 --> 02:04:39.997
>> So, you know, they could have just
tricked him into doing it. [laughter]

02:04:40.080 --> 02:04:44.157
>> Tricked him into throwing his career
right out the goddamn window. Look, he's

02:04:44.240 --> 02:04:48.317
super talented. He'll be fine. It'll
it'll be one of those things where it's

02:04:48.400 --> 02:04:50.957
it's a bump in the road
and he'll have to get over it.

02:04:51.040 --> 02:04:53.437
>> I hope so. He seemed like
such a nice guy when I met him.

02:04:53.520 --> 02:04:56.557
>> He is He's a sweetheart. >> He'd
been a Ron White fan since he was a

02:04:56.640 --> 02:05:00.797
kid, you know, and I I got to have a warm
place in my heart for those kind of folks.

02:05:00.880 --> 02:05:03.597
>> Well, he's also going through a lot
of different changes in his life, right?

02:05:03.680 --> 02:05:06.317
Like so here he loses 300 lb, which is a

02:05:06.400 --> 02:05:08.957
giant change. Gets hooked on fitness.

02:05:09.040 --> 02:05:12.557
This is giant change. So changes his
whole life, changes his body, did the

02:05:12.640 --> 02:05:16.637
ways to wealth thing just like you. And
then he gets divorced. So that's another

02:05:16.720 --> 02:05:20.237
big change. So he's got these two giant
changes and then he's on the Kimmel show

02:05:20.320 --> 02:05:21.517
and he's saying stupid things.

02:05:21.600 --> 02:05:23.197
>> Yeah. >> Well,
he's saying jokes. I shouldn't

02:05:23.280 --> 02:05:26.237
even say he's saying
stupid things. He's saying

02:05:26.320 --> 02:05:28.397
>> I'm not even saying it's stupid. I'm

02:05:28.480 --> 02:05:30.077
just saying like if you want people to

02:05:30.160 --> 02:05:33.517
like you like going after Trump and that

02:05:33.600 --> 02:05:35.677
from especially from his perspective

02:05:35.760 --> 02:05:40.717
like as a country guy like that's
a giant chunk of your crowd.

02:05:40.800 --> 02:05:43.677
>> Absolutely. >> But if you
feel like that's what he was

02:05:43.760 --> 02:05:46.077
doing standup, you know, uh at the club.

02:05:46.160 --> 02:05:48.317
>> Yeah. >> He did it
a bunch of times and he was

02:05:48.400 --> 02:05:51.597
practicing. So I think that's also one
of the reasons why he wanted to host the

02:05:51.680 --> 02:05:56.737
Kimmel show. >> I I think that might
have been rushed a little bit.

02:05:56.820 --> 02:05:59.757
>> [laughter] >> Standup's
really really hard.

02:05:59.840 --> 02:06:01.277
>> It's a long road. >> Yeah, it is.

02:06:01.360 --> 02:06:05.357
>> He He got laughs. He had some
good lines, but it was, you know,

02:06:05.440 --> 02:06:09.117
>> it was what you expect from someone
who's beginning their standup journey.

02:06:09.200 --> 02:06:11.597
>> Yeah. >> But, uh, I think,

02:06:11.680 --> 02:06:16.317
>> you know, if you know the guy, and I
do, he's the best. He's a sweetheart.

02:06:16.400 --> 02:06:19.917
>> I mean, at least my experiences with
him have all been awesome and with other

02:06:20.000 --> 02:06:21.757
people that I know. Yeah. He's a very

02:06:21.840 --> 02:06:24.557
jolly, friendly, lovable guy. But like

02:06:24.640 --> 02:06:29.117
all people, he is human and humans do
things that other humans don't like and

02:06:29.200 --> 02:06:32.957
then you suffer the consequences
and you know, >> right?

02:06:33.040 --> 02:06:35.997
>> I think he'll be fine. He'll be fine
because he's super talented. I mean,

02:06:36.080 --> 02:06:38.477
he's a [__] brilliant singer and

02:06:38.560 --> 02:06:43.597
brilliant songwriter. We'll see. I think
he'll be fine. I think, you know, if he

02:06:43.680 --> 02:06:46.797
could do it all again, he I bet he
probably wouldn't. [laughter] You know,

02:06:46.880 --> 02:06:48.797
that's part of life, you know.

02:06:48.880 --> 02:06:51.837
>> You can't back up. No, [clears throat]

02:06:51.920 --> 02:06:55.997
you do some things some things you wish
you hadn't. You go, "Oh shit." You know,

02:06:56.080 --> 02:07:00.557
but talented people like look at Kanye
West. He had a [__] diamond swastika

02:07:00.640 --> 02:07:03.037
around his neck. A year later,
he's selling out giant arenas,

02:07:03.120 --> 02:07:04.717
>> right? [laughter]

02:07:04.800 --> 02:07:07.677
>> I can't explain I can't explain Kanye.

02:07:07.760 --> 02:07:10.237
>> People bounce back. Well, he's super

02:07:10.320 --> 02:07:12.717
talented. I mean, that's really the

02:07:12.800 --> 02:07:18.477
thing. unbelievably prolific and super
talented and driven like a [__]

02:07:18.560 --> 02:07:23.037
and >> and full-blown nuts.
>> Yep. [laughter]

02:07:23.120 --> 02:07:27.037
>> Just like us, you know, >> just
in a different way. We're I mean,

02:07:27.120 --> 02:07:30.717
everybody's [__] crazy. That's
the thing like people are attacking Jelly

02:07:30.800 --> 02:07:33.437
Roll. One of the things that reasons
people like to do that is they're

02:07:33.520 --> 02:07:37.277
terrified of them ever doing something
that's stupid. And so then when someone

02:07:37.360 --> 02:07:40.797
does do something that they think
is stupid, they just can't wait to attack.

02:07:40.880 --> 02:07:44.317
Boy, >> especially someone that's
like on top of the world. Jelly roll.

02:07:44.400 --> 02:07:48.557
>> Relentless. >> I know.
>> Every I mean, I watched Tik Tok, you

02:07:48.640 --> 02:07:50.317
know, and I just see those feeds coming

02:07:50.400 --> 02:07:53.517
through. Jelly roll. Boy, they're losing

02:07:53.600 --> 02:07:56.317
their minds over it. I'm like, what?

02:07:56.400 --> 02:08:00.397
>> Trump invented name calling. He's the
one that brought it back from the death

02:08:00.480 --> 02:08:04.477
with Ellen DeGenerate.
That was the first one he did, I think.

02:08:04.560 --> 02:08:08.637
>> Yeah. >> And uh like, oh,
name calling. That's what we're back to.

02:08:08.720 --> 02:08:11.917
>> I don't even know what the joke was.
Was he saying Trump's a fat [__] just like

02:08:12.000 --> 02:08:14.957
me? Like what was he saying?
>> That's what he said. I mean I don't I

02:08:15.040 --> 02:08:18.077
don't I don't know what the whole
bit was, but >> that's all it was.

02:08:18.160 --> 02:08:24.077
>> But he he said uh Trump is a
Trump's like me. He's a fat pig.

02:08:24.160 --> 02:08:26.157
>> That's it. >> That's it.
>> And that's what they got mad at.

02:08:26.240 --> 02:08:29.277
>> That's what they got mad at. He called
the president a fat pig. He's just kind

02:08:29.360 --> 02:08:31.597
of fat. >> Well, he's definitely not thin.

02:08:31.680 --> 02:08:35.997
>> Yeah. [laughter] Not
from not from where I'm sitting.

02:08:36.080 --> 02:08:39.597
>> I mean, was the joke like he could lose
weight cuz I lost weight? I mean, what

02:08:39.680 --> 02:08:45.837
was he saying? >> Uh, I just think he was
saying [laughter] >> Should we play it?

02:08:45.920 --> 02:08:48.477
>> Yeah. >> All right,
let's play it. Oh, it says here.

02:08:48.560 --> 02:08:52.557
>> Okay. >> Fat pig comment. I like how

02:08:52.640 --> 02:08:54.637
>> Jelly Roll joked that his own 300lb

02:08:54.720 --> 02:08:59.597
weight loss meant he essentially lost
an entire Donald Trump. The fat pig

02:08:59.680 --> 02:09:02.717
comment. He quoted past remarks Trump
made about others and said, "Well, Mr.

02:09:02.800 --> 02:09:05.677
President, from one fat pig to another,

02:09:05.760 --> 02:09:09.917
take it from me that physical fitness
is very important." Huh? That's not bad,

02:09:10.000 --> 02:09:13.997
>> right? >> That's not bad at all.
From one fat pig to another. Yeah.

02:09:14.080 --> 02:09:17.517
>> Saying that he lost an entire
Donald Trump. Okay. He did. Yeah. Like

02:09:17.600 --> 02:09:21.197
literally he lost 300 lb.
That's more than a Trump probably.

02:09:21.280 --> 02:09:24.557
>> And then he said from one fat pig
to another. Take it from me that physical

02:09:24.640 --> 02:09:27.197
fitness is very important.
Is that terrible?

02:09:27.280 --> 02:09:30.477
>> Yeah. No, >> that's
not terrible at all.

02:09:30.560 --> 02:09:31.277
>> And that's it.

02:09:31.360 --> 02:09:36.077
>> So maybe the real problem was him um

02:09:36.160 --> 02:09:41.037
>> being on Kimmel to begin with.
Yeah, >> would be a mark against him to

02:09:41.120 --> 02:09:45.277
>> and then maybe saying if you're a Trump
supporter, don't listen to my music.

02:09:45.360 --> 02:09:47.117
>> But that was the next day or whatever.

02:09:47.200 --> 02:09:49.917
>> Yeah, you can play it. >> Sadly,
those are the only labs Trump's

02:09:50.000 --> 02:09:54.477
been doing lately. According
to the Washington Post, a lot

02:09:54.560 --> 02:09:57.837
of doctors are worried about
the president's weight. After his last

02:09:57.920 --> 02:10:00.077
physical, we found out Trump gained 14

02:10:00.160 --> 02:10:01.917
pounds, which means he's now tipping the

02:10:02.000 --> 02:10:05.197
scales at almost 240.

02:10:05.280 --> 02:10:07.117
It's crazy. Think about this, y'all. In

02:10:07.200 --> 02:10:11.537
the last few years, I've lost 300 lb.

02:10:11.620 --> 02:10:13.640
[cheering and applause]

02:10:18.820 --> 02:10:21.597
[cheering] >> [applause]

02:10:21.680 --> 02:10:26.317
>> That means I've lost
an entire Donald Trump.

02:10:26.400 --> 02:10:28.157
>> And let's be honest, based on his

02:10:28.240 --> 02:10:34.040
approval ratings, it seems like most
of the country wants to do the same thing.

02:10:36.560 --> 02:10:39.437
>> Now, listen, [applause] we
should take it easy, y'all. We

02:10:39.520 --> 02:10:42.397
shouldn't be making fun of the president
for his weight because we know that he

02:10:42.480 --> 02:10:45.117
would never do that to other people. I

02:10:45.200 --> 02:10:47.997
don't speak badly about somebody's

02:10:48.080 --> 02:10:52.957
physical disability, but he's
got the biggest stomach I have

02:10:53.040 --> 02:10:55.117
ever seen.
>> He's actually fatter than ever.

02:10:55.200 --> 02:10:57.677
>> The mayor is incompetent and the

02:10:57.760 --> 02:10:59.917
governor is

02:11:00.000 --> 02:11:04.717
a big fat slob.
Big fat [laughter] slob. Told you I have

02:11:04.800 --> 02:11:08.077
a friend of mine. He's fat as you
never saw a guy like this. He said Chris

02:11:08.160 --> 02:11:09.757
Christiey's a fat pig. You cannot do

02:11:09.840 --> 02:11:12.557
that. Chris Christie is not a fat pig.

02:11:12.640 --> 02:11:15.357
He is not a fat pig. He's not a fat pig.

02:11:15.440 --> 02:11:17.437
Don't call him a fat pig. Sir, in the

02:11:17.520 --> 02:11:20.557
back, don't call him a fat pig. Okay.

02:11:20.640 --> 02:11:23.757
>> I don't talk about people being fat. I

02:11:23.840 --> 02:11:28.177
refuse to talk about the fact that
he's a fat slob. I don't mention it.

02:11:28.260 --> 02:11:31.037
[laughter] >> Well,
if that ain't the pot calling the

02:11:31.120 --> 02:11:36.170
kettle fat. [applause]

02:11:38.740 --> 02:11:42.877
[cheering] >> Well, Mr.
president. From one fat pig to

02:11:42.960 --> 02:11:46.797
another, take it from me that physical
fitness is very important. And trust me,

02:11:46.880 --> 02:11:49.787
you'll be happy to see your penis again.

02:11:49.870 --> 02:11:51.890
[applause and cheering]

02:11:54.240 --> 02:11:57.037
>> I can speak from a little bit of
experience here, y'all. The first time I

02:11:57.120 --> 02:12:00.157
seen mine recently,
I was surprised at how cute it was.

02:12:00.240 --> 02:12:04.077
>> That's probably rudimentary
standup, right? Like he's

02:12:04.160 --> 02:12:07.197
learning how to do standup. So, he's
almost like he's a politician talking.

02:12:07.280 --> 02:12:09.357
>> I tell you, I think
he did a pretty good job.

02:12:09.440 --> 02:12:12.557
>> Did a very good job. But I mean,
you know what I'm saying? It's like it's

02:12:12.640 --> 02:12:17.037
monologue type standup and clearly
someone wrote it and he's reading it off

02:12:17.120 --> 02:12:19.517
the teleprompter. >> Yeah,

02:12:19.600 --> 02:12:24.317
>> probably. But anyway, it wasn't,
you know, it certainly wasn't bad. I mean,

02:12:24.400 --> 02:12:28.797
it was just jokes, you know.
>> It's It's just jokes. If someone got so

02:12:28.880 --> 02:12:32.157
upset they never want to listen to Jelly
Rolls music again after that. Like,

02:12:32.240 --> 02:12:36.877
>> they're crying. They're crying.
They're in tears. I see it. I see it.

02:12:36.960 --> 02:12:40.237
>> Yeah. It wasn't the funniest stuff, but
I mean, he didn't. That's someone. They

02:12:40.320 --> 02:12:41.997
wrote that [__] for him. I guarantee you.

02:12:42.080 --> 02:12:44.477
>> I'm sure they did. >> 100%.
You could tell he was reading it.

02:12:44.560 --> 02:12:49.117
It wasn't like he was just speaking off
the cuff. He was 100% reading a thing.

02:12:49.200 --> 02:12:52.237
>> He looked good, though. >> Looks great,
>> didn't he? He look kind of handsome.

02:12:52.320 --> 02:12:56.397
>> He's very handsome now. He lost a lot
of weight, man. I mean, the guy uh when he

02:12:56.480 --> 02:12:59.757
came to do the podcast, he ran six
and a half miles on the treadmill while we

02:12:59.840 --> 02:13:03.517
were hanging out. >> No [__] >> Oh,
yeah. And talking while he's

02:13:03.600 --> 02:13:06.637
running. So, I'm working out.
I'm in front of him working out, lifting

02:13:06.720 --> 02:13:09.677
weights, and he's running on this
treadmill the entire time and talking

02:13:09.760 --> 02:13:13.357
while he's running. >> Wow. >> Yeah,
he's fit now. It's kind of crazy.

02:13:13.440 --> 02:13:16.877
We went to see him. Um, you know,
he performed at uh, you know, Matthew

02:13:16.960 --> 02:13:19.117
McConna has that Mac and Jack, that big

02:13:19.200 --> 02:13:21.517
thing that they do where it's a big uh,

02:13:21.600 --> 02:13:24.477
it's a charity benefit and auction and

02:13:24.560 --> 02:13:29.597
he has people perform. So, he um, Jelly
Roll performed. He was a performer that

02:13:29.680 --> 02:13:31.437
night. And then uh as he's coming off

02:13:31.520 --> 02:13:34.157
the stage, there's this uh stairway with

02:13:34.240 --> 02:13:37.357
a railing on it. And we're me and Tony

02:13:37.440 --> 02:13:41.517
uh are over to the left side where you
know behind the stage. He grabs a hold

02:13:41.600 --> 02:13:45.037
of the railing and jumps over it. And I
go, "Do you know what you just did?" I

02:13:45.120 --> 02:13:49.197
go, "You used to be 500 lb and now you
just grabbed a railing and jumped over

02:13:49.280 --> 02:13:51.437
it like a cat." Like that's crazy.

02:13:51.520 --> 02:13:53.677
>> Wow. >> It's like a different
You're a different human being.

02:13:53.760 --> 02:13:56.477
>> That's kind of inspiring.
>> It's very inspiring.

02:13:56.560 --> 02:14:00.957
>> Yeah. I wish he didn't say that stuff,
but I mean it's just sometimes the juice

02:14:01.040 --> 02:14:03.277
is not worth the squeeze.
>> Yeah, you're right about that.

02:14:03.360 --> 02:14:05.277
>> You know, >> you got
to figure out the juice in the

02:14:05.360 --> 02:14:07.997
squeeze, baby. You got to figure it out.

02:14:08.080 --> 02:14:12.717
>> But, you know, if you know Jelly Roll,
he's a great guy. It's just that kind of

02:14:12.800 --> 02:14:17.997
monologue, standup stuff.
It is funny seeing all

02:14:18.080 --> 02:14:21.117
the different times Trump called people
fat though. That is [__] hilarious.

02:14:21.200 --> 02:14:24.077
>> Yeah.

02:14:24.160 --> 02:14:28.557
But you know, Trump supporters are
[__] nuts, man. They're rabid. He

02:14:28.640 --> 02:14:31.597
represents something other
than just a person to them.

02:14:31.680 --> 02:14:34.957
>> Oh, it's Christ. >> Yeah.
Well, he represents something some

02:14:35.040 --> 02:14:37.757
a leader that they
wish they had, you know?

02:14:37.840 --> 02:14:40.717
>> Yeah. >> Which is a real
problem our society in

02:14:40.800 --> 02:14:44.717
general with leaders. We we look to them
as if there's something different than

02:14:44.800 --> 02:14:47.837
every other person that's ever been
a leader before. Like, this is the one.

02:14:47.920 --> 02:14:51.677
This is the one that's going to save us,
>> right? And and you know what? Some

02:14:51.760 --> 02:14:55.517
people are hopeless and there anybody
that says, "Well, I'll give you hope."

02:14:55.600 --> 02:14:57.837
And then you know that what are you

02:14:57.920 --> 02:15:02.077
going to do? You know, you got to

02:15:02.160 --> 02:15:04.797
I I told I've said this more than once

02:15:04.880 --> 02:15:09.997
that in back when that if you really
want to improve your lot in life and you

02:15:10.080 --> 02:15:13.357
don't really have anything and you don't
really have an education, you should be

02:15:13.440 --> 02:15:16.157
Bernie [__] Sanders, you know, is

02:15:16.240 --> 02:15:20.637
your guy. Uh because he wants to get
the minimum wage up. You think somebody's

02:15:20.720 --> 02:15:23.677
going to come in and hand you a bunch
of loot? That's never going to happen.

02:15:23.760 --> 02:15:25.197
Maybe you can make a couple more bucks

02:15:25.280 --> 02:15:30.877
an hour. Go with that. You know, that's
not Is it Bernie Sanders? Yeah. Yeah.

02:15:30.960 --> 02:15:34.237
>> The guy from Vermont. >> Yeah.
Yeah. Okay. So, you know, he was

02:15:34.320 --> 02:15:38.237
really trying to help. >> And but there
like that's not enough. We don't

02:15:38.320 --> 02:15:41.677
>> Well, they didn't want him.
The Democratic establishment did not want

02:15:41.760 --> 02:15:43.517
that guy. That was the first time that I

02:15:43.600 --> 02:15:49.357
ever got attacked when I had Bernie
on and uh someone was on the podcast and

02:15:49.440 --> 02:15:51.997
they said, "Who you gonna vote for?"
I said, "Oh, it was Jimmy Door." And I

02:15:52.080 --> 02:15:54.717
said, "If I was going to vote for anybody,
I'd probably vote for Bernie.

02:15:54.800 --> 02:15:55.997
Who's the one who makes the most sense?"

02:15:56.080 --> 02:15:57.437
Like, he's the only guy that's like he's

02:15:57.520 --> 02:16:00.157
anti-war. He wants to take a small

02:16:00.240 --> 02:16:03.597
amount of money from uh stock market

02:16:03.680 --> 02:16:07.997
speculation and use that to fund a bunch
of these social programs. I'm like,

02:16:08.080 --> 02:16:10.557
let's see. This is a long time ago. I

02:16:10.640 --> 02:16:15.917
don't necessarily think that I feel
the same way anymore about him. Um, one of

02:16:16.000 --> 02:16:19.277
the reasons being is that he kind of gave
in to the Democratic establishment.

02:16:19.360 --> 02:16:22.797
He let them run him over during
that whole thing with Hillary where they

02:16:22.880 --> 02:16:26.797
rigged the primary. >> He let
he let them get away with stuff

02:16:26.880 --> 02:16:30.317
where I think he should have put his
foot down and said, "This is [__] up,

02:16:30.400 --> 02:16:32.397
>> right? This is the way rigging the

02:16:32.480 --> 02:16:34.717
party." They haven't had a legit primary

02:16:34.800 --> 02:16:38.317
in like what, more than a decade.

02:16:38.400 --> 02:16:41.597
>> That's not good. That's not good.
If you want to be the party that's the

02:16:41.680 --> 02:16:45.917
solution, the change. Well,
you have Where's your primaries?

02:16:46.000 --> 02:16:48.957
What are you doing? Like when they
installed Kla, they just shoved her in

02:16:49.040 --> 02:16:52.717
there. All of a sudden, this is this is
our representative now. Biden's out. And

02:16:52.800 --> 02:16:54.477
we were like, wait, what? >> Right.

02:16:54.560 --> 02:16:57.757
>> There's no primary. Like what about
the rules? What about the way we've always

02:16:57.840 --> 02:17:00.957
done this? >> Well,
Biden was taking a nap.

02:17:01.040 --> 02:17:04.957
He had to do something.
>> It's amazing he's still alive.

02:17:05.040 --> 02:17:08.557
I thought he was going to die right
after he got out of office. I thought I

02:17:08.640 --> 02:17:11.917
thought he was probably barely hanging on,
which is also the real my one of the

02:17:12.000 --> 02:17:13.677
my big fears about him doing another

02:17:13.760 --> 02:17:16.637
four years. Like there's no way no way

02:17:16.720 --> 02:17:20.237
he's going to make it out of four years.

02:17:20.320 --> 02:17:22.397
>> I don't know.
It's all going to be over soon.

02:17:22.480 --> 02:17:24.957
>> What do you mean AI or the apocalypse?

02:17:25.040 --> 02:17:27.597
>> The apocalypse. >> Do you
hear the JD Vance was doing a

02:17:27.680 --> 02:17:29.517
speech I was listening
to on Tim Dylan show?

02:17:29.600 --> 02:17:33.007
>> Yeah, I must brought this up a second
ago, so I just saw it on Twitter again.

02:17:33.090 --> 02:17:37.197
[laughter] >> Talk about
end times. that what did it

02:17:37.280 --> 02:17:39.597
what was his exact quote? Let's play it.

02:17:39.680 --> 02:17:42.877
Let's play it. >> Is it like
first of all, who are you

02:17:42.960 --> 02:17:48.840
talking to that you feel
like this is the thing to say?

02:17:49.120 --> 02:17:51.757
>> This is talking about like whether or

02:17:51.840 --> 02:17:57.197
not we're entering end
times. >> JD Vance was

02:17:57.280 --> 02:18:00.237
>> Yes. >> It's loading
it for some reason.

02:18:00.320 --> 02:18:04.717
>> He's on Tim Dylan's show. >> No,
no, no, no, no, no. He was uh just

02:18:04.800 --> 02:18:08.077
giving the speech. Tim Dylan was making
fun of it. It's [__] hilarious.

02:18:08.160 --> 02:18:09.357
>> What's he saying?

02:18:09.440 --> 02:18:11.357
>> Friends and their and their family. I I

02:18:11.440 --> 02:18:15.837
I So I I tend to think like the while I

02:18:15.920 --> 02:18:19.357
wouldn't be shocked if we are living
in the end times. What I'm trying to focus

02:18:19.440 --> 02:18:23.437
on is doing as much of God's
work as possible right now.

02:18:23.520 --> 02:18:25.197
>> And if that leads to the end times,

02:18:25.280 --> 02:18:28.877
okay. And if that leads to, you know, us

02:18:28.960 --> 02:18:31.757
building a better world that thrives and

02:18:31.840 --> 02:18:34.237
survives for a very long time after I'm

02:18:34.320 --> 02:18:36.557
gone, that's great, too. I I just think

02:18:36.640 --> 02:18:39.837
you got to try to wait.

02:18:39.920 --> 02:18:42.237
>> Here's the other part. It sounds like

02:18:42.320 --> 02:18:47.117
he's saying if it lead that the second
hope is it leads to a great [laughter]

02:18:47.200 --> 02:18:51.117
world. >> Yeah. >> But if it leads
to the end times, >> that's okay, too.

02:18:51.200 --> 02:18:55.917
>> You know, us building a better world
that thrives. And if that leads to the

02:18:56.000 --> 02:19:01.037
end times, okay, >> not okay. >> Yeah.
What are you saying? If that leads

02:19:01.120 --> 02:19:03.117
to the end times, okay, >> not great.

02:19:03.200 --> 02:19:07.037
>> That's not okay. And if it doesn't lead
to the end times and everybody lives a

02:19:07.120 --> 02:19:08.557
great life, well, that's great, too.

02:19:08.640 --> 02:19:10.717
>> That's That'd be just fine.

02:19:10.800 --> 02:19:12.797
>> That doesn't seem like the optimum

02:19:12.880 --> 02:19:15.437
perspective, which is even like you

02:19:15.520 --> 02:19:17.997
should reverse those two. And the goal

02:19:18.080 --> 02:19:22.637
is not end times. The goal is make
a beautiful world for all of us

02:19:22.720 --> 02:19:26.957
>> where people thrive and everybody's
happy >> and leave the end out.

02:19:27.040 --> 02:19:28.477
>> That's the problem
with religious people

02:19:28.560 --> 02:19:33.117
that are convinced that they there's
a a set of events that are have been

02:19:33.200 --> 02:19:35.757
predicted. >> You think
he's a religious person?

02:19:35.840 --> 02:19:37.757
>> You think he's a fake religious person?

02:19:37.840 --> 02:19:39.757
>> Vance. >> Yeah. >> JD Vance.

02:19:39.840 --> 02:19:43.357
>> He's a Catholic.
He's very religious. He wrote a book

02:19:43.440 --> 02:19:45.437
about um what was his book? Communion.

02:19:45.520 --> 02:19:47.277
>> That's what that one
was called. He's pitching.

02:19:47.360 --> 02:19:49.277
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I wrote a book about

02:19:49.360 --> 02:19:52.557
his, you know, spiritual journey.

02:19:52.640 --> 02:19:54.637
>> Oh, I didn't. I saw the other movie.

02:19:54.720 --> 02:19:57.357
>> Yeah. I mean, that's why it Communion,
the other one that I know. I brought

02:19:57.440 --> 02:20:00.077
that up when he was on the podcast.
I like, you know, you wrote a book about a

02:20:00.160 --> 02:20:05.037
guy who got abducted by aliens.
That's the same book title. That's Whitley

02:20:05.120 --> 02:20:07.757
Striber's book, Communion. >> Oh [__]

02:20:07.840 --> 02:20:10.877
>> There's a famous movie with um Who's in

02:20:10.960 --> 02:20:14.920
the Who's in Communion?

02:20:15.360 --> 02:20:20.157
>> God damn I don't think I want to say
someone but I don't think it's right.

02:20:20.240 --> 02:20:23.997
>> 1989. >> Uh I just knew about Hillbilly

02:20:24.080 --> 02:20:25.517
>> Christopher Walkin. That's right.

02:20:25.600 --> 02:20:28.077
>> I just knew about Hillbilly
Elegy or whatever the [__]

02:20:28.160 --> 02:20:31.357
>> Yeah, that was his first book and his
new one is Communion. But there was a

02:20:31.440 --> 02:20:35.357
book called Communion by this guy
Whitley Striber who had been abducted by

02:20:35.440 --> 02:20:37.597
aliens allegedly.
>> About the name changes.

02:20:37.680 --> 02:20:41.657
>> What is that?
>> He's changed his name like four times.

02:20:41.740 --> 02:20:44.077
[laughter] >> What? >> Yeah.

02:20:44.160 --> 02:20:46.477
>> Wait a minute. Okay. James Donald

02:20:46.560 --> 02:20:50.157
Bowman, his birth name, um, James David

02:20:50.240 --> 02:20:54.317
Hamill, the name given to him after his
mother married her third husband. Oh,

02:20:54.400 --> 02:20:56.317
well, that's understandable.
>> Yeah, but he changed it when he was in

02:20:56.400 --> 02:20:57.437
high school, I think, for that one.

02:20:57.520 --> 02:20:59.677
>> Uh, who? But he adopted him. He went by

02:20:59.760 --> 02:21:01.997
JD Hamill through high school. That

02:21:02.080 --> 02:21:04.717
makes sense. James David Vance, the name

02:21:04.800 --> 02:21:07.517
he adopted in 2013 before graduating

02:21:07.600 --> 02:21:09.837
from law school, changing his name to

02:21:09.920 --> 02:21:11.837
Vance to honor his maternal

02:21:11.920 --> 02:21:15.597
grandparents, Mama and Pawpa, who helped

02:21:15.680 --> 02:21:17.517
raise him. Well, there's a logic behind

02:21:17.600 --> 02:21:23.197
it at least. It's not like he's like
ducking taxes or something, right?

02:21:23.280 --> 02:21:25.837
>> Maybe. I'm not saying that's why he did
it, but how many people do you know have

02:21:25.920 --> 02:21:29.837
changed their name like that? >> Not many
>> frequently. At least more than once.

02:21:29.920 --> 02:21:32.477
>> That is odd. He did it three times.

02:21:32.560 --> 02:21:35.917
>> Four. >> I wonder if you're trying
to reinvent yourself. Why do you do that?

02:21:36.000 --> 02:21:38.397
>> I don't know. >> I don't know.
I don't like the end times talk.

02:21:38.480 --> 02:21:42.477
>> I don't trust him. >> I don't like that
talk. That kind of talk is crazy talk.

02:21:42.560 --> 02:21:46.237
>> Yeah. >> Like if it's
end end times okay. No.

02:21:46.320 --> 02:21:49.597
>> Jamie said it best.
>> Not Not good. Not >> not okay.

02:21:49.680 --> 02:21:51.757
>> That's not okay. >> That's not okay.

02:21:51.840 --> 02:21:54.717
>> No. That that spooks me out. Is that's

02:21:54.800 --> 02:21:57.437
like I understand why people are

02:21:57.520 --> 02:21:59.837
attracted by religion. I understand it

02:21:59.920 --> 02:22:03.037
from like giving you a moral framework

02:22:03.120 --> 02:22:05.197
and an ethical frame. I get that. But

02:22:05.280 --> 02:22:10.397
when people think that they absolutely
know what the interpretations are and

02:22:10.480 --> 02:22:12.957
absolutely know what's
going to happen and they have

02:22:13.040 --> 02:22:16.957
>> and I'll absolutely quit listening
to them talk if they if that's what they

02:22:17.040 --> 02:22:19.117
come at me with. I know and you don't

02:22:19.200 --> 02:22:22.477
know. I'm like, well, my my uncle was a

02:22:22.560 --> 02:22:24.317
Baptist preacher, so I grew up in the

02:22:24.400 --> 02:22:27.037
church and was a really involved really

02:22:27.120 --> 02:22:30.397
involved with every single aspect of the

02:22:30.480 --> 02:22:32.077
Baptist church.

02:22:32.160 --> 02:22:35.197
>> And uh I believed that my uncle was the

02:22:35.280 --> 02:22:37.677
uh who you met uh he smelled like piss

02:22:37.760 --> 02:22:42.957
and he was having problems,
but [laughter] he but he was my hero my

02:22:43.040 --> 02:22:46.077
whole life cuz I thought he was the only
one that was telling me the you know the

02:22:46.160 --> 02:22:48.877
truth. And then he ends up hitting
on my girlfriend. [laughter]

02:22:48.960 --> 02:22:53.307
He was an animal.
>> He was He asked her to marry him.

02:22:53.390 --> 02:22:55.997
[clears throat] He asked
Jeanie to marry him and

02:22:56.080 --> 02:22:59.277
hilarious. She I I came home, they had
watched the show and then they came back

02:22:59.360 --> 02:23:02.477
and I had another show to do. I came
back, nobody was in the living room. I

02:23:02.560 --> 02:23:06.237
was at staying at the condo and and I
said, "How'd it go?" And he goes, "He

02:23:06.320 --> 02:23:10.237
asked me to marry him." And I'm like,
"Was he was joking, right?" And I said,

02:23:10.320 --> 02:23:12.557
"I'm in love with your nephew." And he

02:23:12.640 --> 02:23:17.277
goes, "Did he ask you to marry him?"
I'm like, "Fuck, dude. Really?" I mean, I

02:23:17.360 --> 02:23:19.357
never said >> Wasn't he really old then?

02:23:19.440 --> 02:23:23.917
>> Yeah. Well, yeah, he's 90. >> 90. Yeah.
I think he's kind of not really all there.

02:23:24.000 --> 02:23:27.837
>> No, no, he's not all there anymore,
but uh but but still, I I grew up in the

02:23:27.920 --> 02:23:30.637
church and I understand
the the church, >> right?

02:23:30.720 --> 02:23:35.517
>> And I understand what's good about
it and and uh and and yes, they were

02:23:35.600 --> 02:23:40.077
teaching a good way of life, you know,
to to be honest and you know, all those

02:23:40.160 --> 02:23:43.517
things that you should be and you should
follow those ten commandments anyway.

02:23:43.600 --> 02:23:46.877
you know, they're all good except for one
of them or something. I don't know,

02:23:46.960 --> 02:23:50.717
one of them I don't like, but I
can't remember which one it was. But

02:23:50.800 --> 02:23:53.677
um but anyway, [clears throat]

02:23:53.760 --> 02:23:57.917
uh I came away from the whole thing with

02:23:58.000 --> 02:24:02.397
that. I'm like, how do I know?
You know, my family, we never talked about

02:24:02.480 --> 02:24:04.877
politics that much. We were little town

02:24:04.960 --> 02:24:09.677
up in the panhandle and they were all
Baptist or Church of Christ and even

02:24:09.760 --> 02:24:13.197
they didn't agree with each other. And
the Church of Christ is kind of a Texas

02:24:13.280 --> 02:24:16.637
religion. It came started
here and Oh, really? Yeah.

02:24:16.720 --> 02:24:18.637
>> And uh so very small,
but my grandmother

02:24:18.720 --> 02:24:23.837
was that. And uh so, you know, she'd go
around picking up all the little ladies

02:24:23.920 --> 02:24:25.277
and go to this little church and she

02:24:25.360 --> 02:24:28.077
spoke in tongues every Sunday morning.

02:24:28.160 --> 02:24:32.877
She would stand up and and I
was sitting right next to her and

02:24:32.960 --> 02:24:36.877
embarrassed me every single time. And
then the preacher's wife would stand up

02:24:36.960 --> 02:24:40.077
and interpret because she had
the gift of interpretation.

02:24:40.160 --> 02:24:44.797
>> [laughter] >> That's one of the gifts.
And it was always a fundraising thing,

02:24:44.880 --> 02:24:48.957
>> you know, it was always the the Lord
telling you to go deep into your wallet

02:24:49.040 --> 02:24:52.237
and >> Oh, how convenient. >> Yeah. Yeah.

02:24:52.320 --> 02:24:56.157
>> Did you ever see um the fab what is
the gemstones? Fabulous gemstones. What is

02:24:56.240 --> 02:24:58.317
this called? Righteous.
Rightous gemstones.

02:24:58.400 --> 02:24:59.917
>> The funniest thing
I've ever seen in my life.

02:25:00.000 --> 02:25:03.037
>> Damn, that's a good show.
>> Oh, it is so rich, man. I just can't

02:25:03.120 --> 02:25:05.197
wait for another [__] season of that.

02:25:05.280 --> 02:25:09.197
>> That show is [__] phenomenal. And
that's that that's a real I mean that's

02:25:09.280 --> 02:25:12.797
where Kenisonson started. You know
Kenisonson was one of those revival tent

02:25:12.880 --> 02:25:15.277
revival preachers, >> right? >> Yeah.

02:25:15.360 --> 02:25:19.597
>> Yep. And I and you know what?
That's where I learned this art form was

02:25:19.680 --> 02:25:21.597
watching my uncle preach. He was very

02:25:21.680 --> 02:25:24.717
funny and uh always getting a laugh on

02:25:24.800 --> 02:25:27.677
stage saving souls every [__] week.

02:25:27.760 --> 02:25:30.957
And I thought it was the greatest thing
ever. But he was a great ortor, you

02:25:31.040 --> 02:25:35.997
know, really really good. And uh and I
know that's where I learned I want to be

02:25:36.080 --> 02:25:39.597
that guy on st. But I just don't want
to have a religious message, you know? I

02:25:39.680 --> 02:25:41.197
want to be able to tell some dick jokes.

02:25:41.280 --> 02:25:44.237
And uh but that's where I got it.
I know. And that's where Chris Rock got

02:25:44.320 --> 02:25:47.997
his, too. You know, his dad was her
uncle or something was a preacher,

02:25:48.080 --> 02:25:51.197
right? And pretty common.
>> A really good preacher is a really good

02:25:51.280 --> 02:25:53.597
orator. There's people that are
good at it. And there's people

02:25:53.680 --> 02:25:57.597
>> Larry Larry the Cable Guy.
His his dad was a preacher.

02:25:57.680 --> 02:25:59.357
>> Makes sense. >> And a pig farmer.

02:25:59.440 --> 02:26:02.397
>> Wow. >> That adds up
to Larry the Cable Guy. if

02:26:02.480 --> 02:26:07.597
that makes sense. It's it's just it's
a real problem when people pretend they

02:26:07.680 --> 02:26:10.877
have the answers because people want
to believe that they do. They really want

02:26:10.960 --> 02:26:15.277
to believe this person knows. >> Well,
when someone tells you you have to

02:26:15.360 --> 02:26:20.077
do this or you're going to burn in hell
forever, like >> are you [__] sure?

02:26:20.160 --> 02:26:20.637
>> Yeah.

02:26:20.720 --> 02:26:22.397
>> Really? [laughter] If you thought you

02:26:22.480 --> 02:26:27.437
How do you know? Like based on what?

02:26:27.520 --> 02:26:31.517
I have no idea. But I'm glad it's there
and I'm glad people are tied to it and

02:26:31.600 --> 02:26:33.677
uh you know I don't want to I don't care

02:26:33.760 --> 02:26:38.717
about I don't bust on anybody's faith
because I don't believe that. [gasps]

02:26:38.800 --> 02:26:42.557
>> It doesn't mean that you that doesn't
mean I'm right. You know I've been wrong

02:26:42.640 --> 02:26:45.997
about so many [__] things.
I might be wrong about all of it. But

02:26:46.080 --> 02:26:48.957
>> the problem was when someone believes
something but then wants to force other

02:26:49.040 --> 02:26:53.117
people to believe it too. And that's
uh that's an age-old problem with human

02:26:53.200 --> 02:26:57.117
beings. >> That's a real issue.

02:26:57.200 --> 02:27:00.477
All right, Ron, let's get the [__] out
of here. We got a show to do tonight.

02:27:00.560 --> 02:27:05.677
Let's go. >> Let's go do it, man. Uh
I'll be there at uh 7 o'clock or whatever.

02:27:05.760 --> 02:27:06.317
>> Yes, sir.
