Starting point is 00:02:38 So I like Secret Britney and the... Yeah, just the... it's just so. I think it's called aggravated mental illness. Okay. That's kind of, I think the medical term. Is that what it feels like? It's what it feels like. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:02:55 Yeah. It's kind of like, you remember when they used to tour circuses of people? Oh yeah, you mean like the specialty guy, like this lady can catch her ovary in her mouth or whatever. Bearded woman, I feel like bearded woman sometimes. Like, look! But it's me filming it being like, check this shit out.

Starting point is 00:03:13 That's how I feel sometimes. You know? Yeah, sometimes it is weird because you're the subject and the director. Exactly. Yeah. That's interesting. It's like found footage. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:03:24 Of yourself. Of myself. Yeah, my brother called me that. He's like, man, I'm watching this video and it just, this old comedy video, you just made me damn tear up. And like, I don't know what he's talking about. It's like a clip somebody made or something.

Starting point is 00:03:37 Yeah. I'm like trying to fucking get some Chick-fil-A. I'm like, ugh. I hate that when you're having a sentimental moment where you have to roll down the window to tell the Chick-fil-A person what you want. Yep. You're like one second. Yeah, let me get a Six-piece grilled you ever tried their grilled nuggets. Ah delicious really? Yeah, I would recommend You know, there's supposed to be a secret menu at McDonald's

Starting point is 00:03:59 Mmm, have you heard about that? Yeah, I'm not in the secret menu club. Can you look up some of these secret items that they have over there? Is this like, you mean like seasonal? Oh, what is this? Yeah, you can add an egg to your burger. Now, what do we think is in a McDonald's egg? Probably not any egg. I mean, yeah, I don't, yeah, it's probably mostly, it's got to be have some egg in it, huh? Yeah, I wonder if you raise a McDonald's egg to completion.

Starting point is 00:04:29 Yeah. Is that the term? Okay, from fertilization to burger. Right. From when Grimace and whoever. Who is the, can you look up who's the racist McDonald's guy? Isn't it the Irish one? You know about this Lord, the like Seamus O something O'Hanigan? He's like this forbidden McDonald's character

Starting point is 00:04:50 that's like a raging, he like fights for the IRA or something like that. Oh, he does. But it's like made up. For the Irish. Republican army, you got it. Oh, that's who it is, huh? Irish Central, here we go.

Starting point is 00:05:02 Oh yeah, Irish Central. Who was Uncle O'Gremacy and was he really in the IRA? Wow. So this is a real, how the 1970s Shamrock, shake toting McDonald's mascot, Uncle O'Gremacy. Uncle, he diddled somebody. Gotten mixed up with the IRA. They used to have some really intense storylines before America was like, we can't handle this.

Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah, we need to lock this down. With St. Patrick's Day season upon us, oh, the legend of Uncle O'Grimacy, as well as his cringey green shamrock vest and diddly eye accent lives on in YouTube, thanks in part to the US-based nonprofit. Is there a video? Oh, no way. Here we we go McDonald's shamrock shakes

Starting point is 00:06:02 Come and match me shamrock shakes! Shamrock shakes are back! Let's celebrate at McDonald's! Shamrock shakes, they're a beautiful green! They just have guns. Shamrock shakes, they're a beautiful green! Shamrock shakes, they're a beautiful green! Uncle of Grimacy! Oh, so they're trying to bring a new character and I guess it just didn't stick, huh?

Starting point is 00:06:20 I guess not. I do love how these character shapes are just kind of nutsacky in general. They were both kind of nut shaped. Yeah. You know? Yeah, I think they want to give you a, like a comfortable, like, hey, you could look like this. This is the ideal male form.

Starting point is 00:06:42 Keep coming here. Yes. You could look, you could be one of us. Yeah, what happened to that uncle O'Sharnon? If you look it up, brother. Yeah, I just want to, I do want us to get to the end of what actually happened. Yeah, I don't know how his story ends. Here we go. Introduced the new mascot, Uncle of Grimacey, in 1975. The Irish uncle of the purple mascot, Grimace. Oh, he was an actual uncle. They're related. They did a 23 and Me.

Starting point is 00:07:09 They did a bloodline. They did a fucking. Oh my God, I couldn't imagine being related to that guy. Would travel from Ireland each year, bringing shamrock shakes to McDonaldland. Uncle O'Gremacy was quietly phased out of McDonald's marketing after a few years due in part two in alleged incident.

Starting point is 00:07:27 In Philly. In Philadelphia. It always happens in Philly. In 1978 where the person portraying him, scroll up please, made statements in support of the IRA and that British soldiers were better dead than alive. Wow. That is crazy.

Starting point is 00:07:44 So that's just some typical Irish banter though. What do you expect out of a guy like him? If you're expecting anything other than just patriotism, you're wrong. Yeah, if you're expecting anything. First of all, this guy's obviously some lactose junk. I don't want to fucking put him on blast, but he obviously, uh, big on milk, big milk guy to bring a bag of milk or a bunch of milk from Ireland. Yeah. You brought your foreign milk into our country. Get that shit out of my face, dude.

Starting point is 00:08:19 Uh, yeah, that kind of blows me away. Uncle O'Grimmacy. Dang. Yeah. I can't believe you didn't know that. Yeah, I didn't know that that happened. And some of them were mint flavored too, which is insane. I don't like that.

Starting point is 00:08:31 What is a shamrock shake? What is the flavor? That's a great question. Yeah, I guess I just thought it was just green flavor. You know, whatever that, not lime though. Like how Kool-Aid is just red flavored yeah yeah yeah the shake was lemon lime flavor with a vanilla ice cream lemon lime sherbet and vanilla syrup by 1973 the shake was

Starting point is 00:08:57 merely a green color vanilla shake it is now mint flavored so I guess they still have a version of the shake when you you were growing up, was Olive Garden like a treat? Yeah. I mean, we had a place, Larry's Ribs. We had a place, was it called Garden Options, I think? It was like this salad area or whatever. Okay. Like a... Health food. I think it was like this salad area or whatever. Okay. A salad, like a.

Starting point is 00:09:25 Health food. Yeah, a place where you could somebody a julienne to care it and people would drive from 20 miles to see it or something. Yeah. Olive Garden was not, it was a prom kind of destination. Yeah, how old were you when you went to Olive Garden for the first time?

Starting point is 00:09:41 Oh God, I don't know, I guess whenever I really started to get a palette for the world, probably. For Italian cuisine. Yeah. 17, I bet. Okay. Those Andy's mints. Oh, they're good.

Starting point is 00:09:57 I thought, that's what made me think of it, the Shamrock Shake being mint flavored. I remember like, cause we used to do Olive Garden like birthday, or you know, like a really like special event And I would always want to go and those Andes Mints My mom would fill her purse with them and we would snack on those like she put them in my lunch the next day for The next like week or two. It was like a real specialty looking back chocolate mint really not not good

Starting point is 00:10:22 Yeah, not great. I don't think but I thought they were pretty good. Yeah, not great, I don't think, but I thought they were pretty good. Yeah, or were we just kids? I still sometimes, if I'm leaving a place they got those, at first I'm walking past them, like, nah, fuck them. But then I get two steps away. Make that loop around. Yep. Like, let me fucking.

Starting point is 00:10:39 Make that U-ie. Let me boomerang a little. Pull that U-ie. And get me a little mitten going on. You've toured in the UK, right? Yeah, I have. You ever tried those nasty, actually you wanna talk about fucking nasty,

Starting point is 00:10:53 the orange chocolates they have over there? Mm-mm. It's like, I imagine if you were to scoop diarrhea out of a toilet and eat it, that's kind of what. It's awful. Oh wow, offshore work, huh? Offshore drilling, there you go. Oh, that's crazy. What do the British do?

Starting point is 00:11:09 They're still very confused. They need help. Well, they only have a few flavors over there. Well, they don't care about, they didn't care about food. I don't think if you go to Britain, it's not, and you go to Scotland, Ireland, wherever else you can go over there, you can't, the food isn't, nobody's like, hey, I'm going you go to Britain, it's not, and you go to Scotland, Ireland, wherever else you can go over there,

Starting point is 00:11:27 you can't, the food isn't, nobody's like, hey, come here for, it's usually potatoes, beans, sausage. Yeah, yeah, they eat like it's still, there's Germans flying overhead. You know what I mean? It's very much a war meal. It's a war meal. That's government rations. Yeah, yes? It's very much a war meal. It's a war meal. That's government rations.

Starting point is 00:11:47 Yeah. Yes, it's very much, yes, our, and I don't want to say illegal immigrants, but our semi, our new friends in America, OK, are eating way better than this. You know, they always talk about this online of like, you know, the UK colonized everywhere, stole the spices, stole the artifacts, whatever, and

Starting point is 00:12:10 you bitch, you seasoned shit with salt. You couldn't figure it out beyond just salt. Even then. True. What, yeah, I wonder if some of that's a ruse, because if you think if they had done all that, they would have better music well I mean they had the Beatles

Starting point is 00:12:28 they got great music yeah they're Sinead O'Connor they've had the Pogues they've had One Direction I was just about to say it if you weren't thank you yep and they've had um Fred again Fred again. Is he British? Yeah. Hell yeah. I believe he is. You're locked into DJ culture. Skrillex. Skrillex isn't British.

Starting point is 00:12:52 Okay. I just wanted to say that. Oh damn, you're right. Oh, he's from Ball Ham. Yeah, dude, come on. Ball Ham. Yeah, Fred again. I saw him, I saw him perform a couple of weeks ago. You could put him in a police lineup in front of me

Starting point is 00:13:08 and I would not be able to identify him. Well, I think that's why they named him that, that's why his parents, even they were like, oh, it's this. Again. Yeah, we'll get it. Yeah, that's bro. Yeah. Oh, he could, yeah, it's kind of nice he could probably blend,

Starting point is 00:13:23 but you know, especially now that his career's getting so Oh, he could, yeah, it's kind of nice. He could probably blend, but, you know, especially now that his career is getting so big. Oh yeah. That he could just blend in. Oh yeah. What about you? So you start out and you're in Texas. Cause I just want my audience to know more about you.

Starting point is 00:13:35 Yeah, let's get into the lore. Is it okay? Yeah. Some people don't like to talk about it. Could you imagine if I was like, I'm not really, that derails an interview too, right? It's like, what are we doing? Yeah, sometimes Well, I think it's interesting with podcasting. It's like sometimes I forget that my audience doesn't know people

Starting point is 00:13:51 and so I want to know more about So I have to make sure I do a good job of Introducing them you want to know my social security number. Let's get to it. Yeah, if you give me a little bit of it Pull up the rest I'll learn the rest. Okay. Yeah. Ask away. Sexy line for somebody. I'll learn the rest.

Starting point is 00:14:37 Thank you so much. And what made you wanna learn Spanish? Was it just because there were so many people speaking Spanish in y'all state? Yeah. I mean, it's like you start taking Spanish classes as early as sixth grade in Texas. So it's like you have the beautiful option of learning a second language for free, you know, as a kid. And if you follow that all the way into a collegiate level, it's like

Starting point is 00:15:00 it's a life skill that you never lose. I mean, ideally, you know, you have to practice it, of course, but like it's great. And I I feel like graduating it gives you a leg up on like I Understand a different part of the world that a lot of Americans never do. Yeah, you know They just really don't care to learn not only a second language, but about other cultures So and Spanish obviously is like it's spoken worldwide, but so many different countries so many different cultures. It's not just one Latino culture. Yeah, it's very beautiful. Yeah, I gotta learn more I got a really bit of it in it in you. Yeah, my father's from Nicaragua He speaks Spanish when we were children and he would call me names. I think I don't want to say we can beep it

Starting point is 00:15:39 I think he called me like FAG or whatever, but But he was also very old. Yeah. So it wasn't like a young guy calling, you know, it was just like an old, like I don't even know if he knew what it was. He said hard T. He said the F slur with a hard T.

Starting point is 00:15:54 Yes. I think he just thought I was some kid in his house bothering him. So it makes sense. Neighborhood kid. You gotta say something, yeah. Yeah. But, so that was pretty wild, I remember, but he would speak a lot of it to his friends It's like neighborhood kid. You gotta say something. Yeah but

Starting point is 00:16:05 So that was pretty wild I remember like but he would speak a lot of it to his friends and he would have people over and they would like smoke cigarettes and fucking play like Domino's and just you know And my mother then would just fucking make him sleep in the living room at night. That sounds really prosperous for you as a kid to really grow in.

Starting point is 00:16:33 It was kind of romantic, I guess, in some ways. Yeah. Because you'd always go out there and he would be out there in the living room. And then when they got divorced, my dad would wait by the window, some guy would drop him off off from to come see us. He's like 75 at this point, 78 maybe.

Starting point is 00:16:50 And he would, so he'd come and we'd go get some pizza. And then he would sit by the window in a chair and wait for his friend to come back and pick him up. And his friend was always out on the town. And so his friend. Late, always late. It was like four hours later, my dad would just sit by the window. Yeah, my mom would turn the light off

Starting point is 00:17:09 Because we just save electricity money. So she just asked him if he was okay Yes, and then she would shut it down. But anyway, but yeah, so tell us more about you. Sorry shut out your dad though Yeah, he was he had the he had that a little bit of like He liked to tell us stories from where he grew up and stuff like that.

Starting point is 00:17:46 Yeah, and he's retired now. But he flew A-10s for a while and watched Top Gun and like really was like, that's it. And said I'm going in. That'll do it. Yeah. God, so many men that happened to, huh? Yeah, I think for a lot of men, and correct me if I'm wrong,

Starting point is 00:18:01 Tom Cruise is kind of like y'all's Taylor Swift. I think he was, and then he got so rich and weird Are allegedly the Scientology kind of of it all yeah Yeah What did you get so like known that then the media shapes whatever they want people to think you are you don't have any real? Sure, who are you gonna tell like yeah? I think Tom Cruise for a lot of specifically Tom Cruise Top Gun, for a lot of men it was like, that's the coolest thing I've ever, you know what I mean?

Starting point is 00:18:30 Yeah. Like really changed a lot of people's lives. So my dad was in the Air Force. He does like contract work for the government now, but he really loved it. We moved around a lot as when I was a kid, and I lived in South Korea for a bit. Nuh-uh. I did. Really? And then we moved back to the States. I've lived all over the Southeastern United States,

Starting point is 00:18:49 anywhere from like Arizona, Texas, Alabama, all the way up to Virginia. And then, yeah, I ended up at A&M and I loved it. I loved A&M. I really did. Yeah, it was great. Wow. So living in South Korea,

Starting point is 00:19:02 do you even remember living in South Korea? Mm-hmm. I was in sixth grade. I was crazy. I remember, I was like old enough to remember.

We were there for a year though, and I remember We lived in Seoul like in the capital and the smells were crazy I had never in my life like first of all been outside the US, you know

Starting point is 00:20:00 so that was kind of culture shock at first too, but like It's a whole different, when you walk down a market, the fresh fish market and the spices, and it's just a different, it was crazy as a kid. It was kind of scary, but then you live there for a year and it's like, I might be Korean. Yeah, you get in, you start doing some of the cultural stuff.

Starting point is 00:20:21 You start like...

Well, if you see like a Long John Silver's and a, like, do they really get along, the Colonel and the Fisher? Like, you just wonder if the mascots give, you know, are they Yeah Who's the Long John Silver's mascot? Is it a fish or is it John?

Starting point is 00:30:01 ever known that has eaten at a Long John Silver's. Really? And they used to be with A&W, remember that? That's what it was. And that was, people were, people were shook when that happened. Yeah, Long John's Zervers and A&W combined, like, but then what happens?

Starting point is 00:30:18 The kitchen combines, like what happens inside? It's the same hormonal 17 year old slinging fish and root beer floats. Oh, oh, see that's the thing. I don't want. That was a bodily reaction. I don't want fish near my ice cream. Near your milk?

Starting point is 00:30:36 Yeah. You want fishy milk? Come on, what's wrong with fishy milk? You're right, I guess it's from, I guess, yeah. I should, I'll have a little. Just a bite. Do you ever used to do the, if you don't like it, spit it out in my hand?

Starting point is 00:30:50 Your mom ever used to do that? No, dude, my mom never saw us. My mom would drive by and yell for us to brush our teeth out of the car window. Okay, well I had that. Okay, what happened to me? Yeah, well I'm having this weird day where I'm just saying I'm just making it about me. Thank you for coming in. Of course. And yeah, what does it feel like? Because you didn't start out in comedy,

Starting point is 00:31:20 you started out like entertain like as an entertainment like what was your first way of entertaining people arguably my parents divorce was I have got to be the center of attention that'll do it really you think that did it yeah for sure wow that's so interesting yeah I need people to look at me yeah I always I like to make people laugh from a young age but that's every fucking funny person is like I always just had a knack shut the fuck up Yeah, but it also is like why like I like it's interesting. Yeah, why do you ever really think about it and think about why? Yeah, I think it's it's just a Innate joy, you know to have everybody look at you and be laughing with you like that

Starting point is 00:32:03 Like you were able to create that response in a room. You know, it's a real pat on the back feeling, but it's also like, it's insatiable. Once you start, you can't stop. That's a good point. There's some addictive tendency to it. I never thought about that. Yeah, it's a high.

Starting point is 00:32:17 Yeah, because then you see like it's an effect. It's almost like a wizardry, I think, when you're, I'm just thinking as a kid. Yeah, it's Kratom. We got our own brand of Kratom. Yeah, it's that, I think, for me as a kid, and I was a theater kid as well. Oh yeah.

Starting point is 00:32:33 That did it. And then in college, I don't know, I did improv in college, but it was like, improv at Texas A&M, what are we doing? It was like... Well, that's y'all's whole cheerleading team, it seems like. That whole thing. You mean the yell leaders? I was like, is this little Abner? I was like well that's y'all's whole cheerleading team it seems like That whole thing. I was like just a little Abner

Starting point is 00:32:49 What? I don't even know what's going on Yeah, the y'all leaders are gonna be a point of confusion for a lot of people That's what it you know what it's a point of confusion if you don't know about it Yeah, there were links going around like last year two years ago something had happened I thought there was a big video that went around. From A&M? A&M. And it was making, and that was the first time you saw that there was a male... Like, they're not cheerleaders, they're yell leaders.

Starting point is 00:33:17 Yell leaders. That's what it was. And people didn't know what's going on. Yeah, it's a lot. Because what would you think about it? And this this is it's a weird thing for me as a woman and I respect a name man My god cousin or somebody went there James somebody he's doing pretty well divorcee, but he's good He went there. He's there now. He's he's already gone. Okay. Yeah, he's yeah It's a way because the history of a name which I don't know if you it was a military school for the longest time it's Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College. Yeah. And So women weren't allowed in until like the 60s, 70s. I'm not joking. And

Starting point is 00:34:01 minorities were not allowed in until the 60s, 70s as well, which is fucking late to let in. Women then minorities? Yeah. Let me think if that's how I would do it. No, I might be lying. I think it was it was Minority men and then they let in women in the late 60s early 70s regardless It's fucking embarrassing but the culture at A&M now I would argue is very progressive I wouldn't have gone there if it wasn't but it's weird because they still have some of those like hyper Masculine traditions like the yell leaders. We're not going to have cheerleaders. You know, we have. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:34:29 And there's five of them. Oh, there's only five. Five. Yeah. There's two juniors, three seniors. Oh my God. And they. So there's five men each year who and do they have the they must have trials.

Starting point is 00:34:44 Oh yeah. It's's serious and they show up It's a political race you run for yell leader. No, and they get voted in. Yep. Yep. Yep. Oh my gosh I didn't know this shit. It's crazy and There's so many I mean like after a game you throw them in the pond and all this they're in all white It's real slutty if you think about it Oh, they throw these men in they throw them in in the pond and all white wet t-shirt contest all men Okay, so and we don't do cheers we do yells. Okay, and for different plays during a football game We do different yells accordingly and at so, you know, it's really involved

Starting point is 00:35:20 It is because the the crowd you don't sit for an a& am football game, which I think is kind of common in SEC I want to go I would we should go to an am game. I'd love to take you. It's so much fun I would love to go I um, I love that they're in the SEC now. Yeah, I think that's really fascinating and Yeah, I'm trying to think of what else I know about him I never been to where the school is up there in college station I've wanted to go but I just haven't gotten to go. Well, it's the only thing there. I mean there's not Yeah, I would like to go what else does it say about the yell team? Is there anything else? It's just such an interesting thing About the leaders about the the group when did it start? Yeah, do you yell leader history? There you go. Yeah

Starting point is 00:36:01 The tradition of yell leaders began during a football game in the early 1900s. The Aggies were losing badly and the audience was growing bored. Shit. Wow. The upperclassmen ordered the freshmen to find a way to entertain their guests, many of whom had been invited by Texas Women's University.

Starting point is 00:36:18 Wow. It was separate. But women had a part in it. In the crowd. We need to entertain these ladies. We need to entertain the women. And hey, women still want to be entertained. It's true.

Starting point is 00:36:30 The tradition of Yale leaders, the freshmen found white coveralls and began leading the crowd in Yelts. They had so much fun and received so much attention from their audience that it was decided that only upper class would be allowed to participate in leading Yelts in the future. Wow, so they made the younger people do it, saw that it was awesome, and then like, you can't do it.

Starting point is 00:36:48 Yeah, yeah. Actually, nevermind, give it back. It was very bad. So there's a, when they're going for, you gotta help me out, when they're going for a field goal or for a, what's the conversion called? Two point conversion.

Starting point is 00:37:01 Two point conversion. When they're doing that, the yell leaders will squat on one knee under the field goalpost and it's called squeeze em eggs and they'll squeeze their nuts oh yeah it's just like they're bracing for them to make the it's just it's so gay I love it yeah oh look at that's true that's fucking eggs squeeze an egg baby and we see that every time we passed by this town because my dad was always like,

Starting point is 00:37:28 do not ever knock anybody up in that town. And he would make us, even when we were kids, he got that in us. That chastity belt, yeah. Just hold your nuts when you drive through there. Protect the goods. Yeah, you do not wanna. Yeah, you know what else I wanna talk to you about?

Starting point is 00:37:42 Knock anything up around there. I need Caleb Presley biblically and that's your best friend. Mm-hmm. Just texted with him today Special guy. I have a I have a crush on him. That's like really it's bad Because he's another SEC boy, right? He went to Yeah He went to North Carolina. You're kidding! Why is he, he's like a volunteer's fan. But he is a volunteer's fan.

Starting point is 00:38:08 He says he played at North Carolina, he didn't. But he's a liar and a cheat. True but he's handsome. It is true. And he is extremely unique. You guys are similar I think. You guys have had a really nice time. We do kind of look alike.

Starting point is 00:38:23 You think? We look a little related. Oh I think maybe it's true. You guys both have blue eyes.. You guys have had a really nice time. We do kinda look alike. You think? We look a little related. Oh, I think maybe. You guys both have blue eyes. Yeah. You have blonde hair. Yeah. I have the same facial hair as him.

Starting point is 00:38:32 Oh, damn well. I'm just kidding. No, look, I think it's just, yeah. Yeah, I, because he's been on your pod a lot of times. Yeah. And I've seen all your stuff. I mean, you went hunting with him and stuff like that? Yeah, yeah.

Starting point is 00:38:46 We went turkey hunting together. Yeah. And it was interesting because yeah, I'd never been hunting and then, I don't think he'd been hunting, but some people were eating, there were some children out there eating mushrooms and they were making everybody nervous.

Starting point is 00:38:58 But yeah, we had a great time. He shot a turkey. I didn't. That's sad. Yeah. Yeah, the turkeys were, some of them, yeah. Some of them looked like they had been, I don't want to say using. But some of them were not doing that good.

Starting point is 00:39:18 Mercury. Yeah. They're off the Merc. Um, yeah, yeah, they were off the Merc. Off the Merc. It was like... Uh, but, um, yeah, when you were singing on that show, it was like... It's so magical. You can sing really good. Thank you so much! It's the theater kid. I can't...

Starting point is 00:39:36 What was, like, your first play that you did? You Monty Python fan? Um, yes, John Cleese. I did Spam a Lot. That was the first one where I was like, this is a lot of fun. Yep. Damn, you had that locked and loaded. Did they?

Starting point is 00:39:52 Monty Python, Spam a Lot. And guess what? They had me cross-dress. They did? I didn't play a woman a single time in the whole production. No. They had me in a beard. What?

Starting point is 00:40:03 Yep. And did you feel? Did your parents write a note or anything like? That I guess it yeah, yeah, you just play what you get, but it's weird It's interesting to have a woman just play the man as it like in a high school It's something to be said about the director looked at me and was like get her in a beard Let's see her in a beard. And it worked, I did it.

Starting point is 00:40:25 But I think it's a compliment to me, if you think about it, that there was no one manly enough to do it the job except for me. You could pull it off. I could pull it off. Wow. Yeah. That's fun, was it a good time? Oh, it's so much fun.

Starting point is 00:40:35 Cause that, I mean, any Monty Python, I mean, it's so not PC today, could not do it today. But it was, they edited it down for a high school production to do, you know, so it was, it's funny. We did high school production to do you know so it was right It's funny. We did um, Adam's family as well. Oh you did. Yeah What's a song like what's one of the songs from spam a lot? I could not tell you if you held a gun to my head really forgot it all

Starting point is 00:40:56 Damn, yeah, I Remember um, I was in I was a theater kid too. What'd you do? I did doesn't shock me. Yeah Yeah, yeah, I think I well I didn't like to ride the bus home a lot of times because it was like The poor kid bus or whatever so I wanted to stay at school to do stuff. I would be like I'm staying I'm involved in something. I'm in the fucking where extracur curricular yes, and uh yeah, I got in key club. Yeah, no I got in yet theater and we did Sherlock Holmes oh fun. It was fun, and I was doing uh I Was Watkins right and so I come out Watson

Starting point is 00:41:44 Watson It was kind of those it was heavily urban I was Watkins, right? And so I come out. Watson? Watson. It was kind of, it was a heavily urban. We had a lot of black characters, so I was Watkins. But I come out, right? And I, for some reason, I just did a Mexican accent for my character. And it wasn't any of the ways we'd ever rehearsed it. And so everybody is like, what the fuck, dude?

Starting point is 00:42:06 Now, Watkins is fucking Mexican. Creative liberties were taken. Yeah, and it was really kind of selfish looking back because everybody was just kind of shook and they didn't know what to do. But I kept being like, what's up, homes? Like I did it all just for that joke. And I bet it killed.

Starting point is 00:42:24 Hey, homes. It killed for a joke. And I bet it killed. Eos! It killed for a little bit, but then it was like... You hadn't learned like the rule of threes yet and all that. I didn't have any plan. No. And it got old fast and... Then you couldn't not be Mexican, so for the next hour and 10 minutes or whatever, you were Mexican. You made your bed, you gotta lie in it.

Starting point is 00:42:42 Miss Porcio was so furious. Man. I say a silent prayer for theater directors every night. You made your bed you got a lie in it. Miss Porcio was so furious. Man, I Say a silent prayer for theater directors every night, you know high school theater directors are kind of like God warriors They're soldiers. Yeah, I don't want to say that they are very similar to Who was that? Sergeant that helped during Katrina, that guy everybody loved? Joel Osteen. Let's pull up a picture, Joel Osteen. Didn't he not open the church up?

Starting point is 00:43:12 Yep. The Lord's not working during this storm. No, who was? No, it's not really Joel Osteen. It is Petraeus., uh, Petraeus. It was General Petraeus. Anyway, that joke took too long and That's all right. My brain should have been better at it.

Starting point is 00:43:33 Yeah, were we talking about Britney? We were talking about Oh, you were a theater kid. Yeah, I was a theater kid. Yeah. Yeah, so it's always been, but I didn't go to school to be like, I don't wanna be a comedian.

Starting point is 00:43:44 It was never on my roster. I mean, my friends in high school were like, you should audition for SNL. Oh, so people said that to you. So people, see, we were entertaining, you liked it, yeah. I liked it, but it's also like, first of all, not how that works. You don't just audition for SNL.

It's a very interesting conversation because I feel like

Starting point is 00:44:22 With what you do and with what I do It's an interesting conversation because I feel like with what you do and with what I do, there is a path to success in comedy that's not, you don't have to do SNL anymore, you know? Like it's- No, and it could derail you. Arguably, yeah. Like would you be able to tell some of your stories

Starting point is 00:44:38 and antics and have some of your same energy that you, would you know each week that even something you wrote was gonna get on there it's a nice yeah and it's yeah I think you're totally right yeah and to be able to connect with an audience you know as like on a very personal level you can't do that when you're always playing a character and also on top of playing characters having to fight for your spot every week why would you know it's like that it can't be the only way to make it in comedy as a young person. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:45:11 So I feel very fortunate that, you know, I graduated college, started working a job. I used to be an insurance agent. Oh, you did?

Starting point is 00:46:30 You're joking. Three Texas juveniles dubbed the Little Rascals, age 11, 12, and 16, accused of bank robbery. The boys allegedly walked into a bank and showed a threatening letter to the teller before fleeing on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. Wow. It sounds like they're bank robbers.

Oh, I remember dude, one time I was trying to write a letter. What would you put on a letter? Oh, I remember, dude, one time, I was trying to flirt with a girl at the bank. And so I wrote this note. That said what?

Starting point is 00:47:53 It was like, hey, great to see you today at the bank. I've seen you before. At the bank. Would love to connect sometime, right? Okay. So I'm walking over and I slide it into the dish and you can see immediately like, people are like, this is a robbery.

And I always thought that that was a fair description. Yeah, that's so specific. You look like Morgan Waluigi. I don't even know who that is, that makes me laugh.

Starting point is 00:54:25 Unless Morgan Wallen's also evil. I don't I think he's probably not Yeah, we had I'm trying to think of Any other draw like when I was a kid? Oh, we did the vampire Thing one time Dracula we had to do a play was fun And it was always in theater class You were always around some of the kids who were probably gay or closeted to So it was just interesting, you know, cuz you always like but you knew those you got like kind of close with those guys Some of the funniest people you'll ever meet. Oh, yeah. Yeah, but at that time it wasn't like like when I was in high school

Starting point is 00:55:02 It wasn't people wouldn't really say if they were gay But at that time it wasn't like like when I was in high school It wasn't people wouldn't really say if they were gay So I think back then you would kind of you got to be around like some of the kids Or just kids that were like maybe questioned or something But theater was always like kind of like a hodgepodge group, you know I was always it was always kind of the miss fit like Absolutely. Was it the Misfits? Yeah, and it was the kids who got kicked out of band You know how fucking weird you have to be to be kicked out of band?

Starting point is 00:55:29 Man, the freak weirdos. Yeah, that was my theater group in high school was like some of the weirdest fucking people I've ever met to this day. Like as a child, I remember being like, you're weird. As an adult, I'm like, God. And it's sad too, because it's like, what did you end up doing with your life? Usually not much, you know.

Starting point is 00:55:50 Those kids, you mean? Yeah. I don't know. It was also we had guys that low-key could sing, but didn't want to admit. We're like afraid to sing in front of other guys. So it was always that crazy night at school where you you were like we have a chorus like our choir or whatever Like you had no clue you had a choir or chorus and then it was like one one week at school when you were a junior

Starting point is 00:56:15 suddenly like the chorus is gonna perform and Everybody was dressed like they worked at a Chinese restaurant and they would come out and fucking sing. You're like, Ricky Singh. And it's beautiful. It's fucking beautiful. And then you would see him the next day and he would act like he had never done it, dude. That's the thing. You got to act like he's not a star. Yes.

Starting point is 00:56:35 Yes. Like you didn't have American Idol at school. That's a great point. Yeah. Yeah. They had like, yeah, I remember this one kid named, I don't even know what his name, I don't even know if he had a fucking name. It was like caramel or something and he sang jewel

Starting point is 00:56:52 Like the singer jewel yes, and people didn't know what to do and the curtain closed in the world had changed people like fucking caramel Same and yeah, it never was the same. And yeah, you saw him and you were like, God, that guy, I didn't know. Yeah, and you never would have known. Yeah. That's the beauty. I think... That is cool. That's the talent show time of year.

Starting point is 00:57:16 Yes. When that happened. Did you ever do the talent show? Yeah, I MC'd it one time. You DJ'd? Yeah, so we... Oh, no, you like hosted it. Yeah, just like the, yeah.

Starting point is 00:57:27 Okay. Hosted it with this funny girl at school named Rebecca. Did you do standup? No, I did it once I got out of like 24, I think I started doing it. Okay. And it was, yeah. I mean, standups, yeah, it's been great.

Starting point is 00:57:40 I don't know if I would have found another avenue to be entertaining, I don't know. Once I saw standup, I was like, oh, I couldn't believe it I would have found another avenue to be entertaining, I don't know. Once I saw a standup, I was like, oh, I couldn't believe it was a real job. Period, yeah. You're like, I remember in college, we won tickets. They would always call you every day and like, you won tickets.

Starting point is 00:57:56 To what? Every day, that's right. And usually we would just hang up or somebody would call them a name and then hang up. And then one day we're like, we'll go. And it was to a comedy show. I don't remember when we got there. And we knew what it was gonna be.

Starting point is 00:58:10 But sometimes until you see something, you don't really know what it is. Like the Blue Man Group. Yeah. You don't really know what it is till you see it. Yeah, did you go? I love the Blue Man Group. Oh, is it good?

Starting point is 00:58:24 Yeah. You've never been? We'll go there after we go to an A&M the flaming group. Oh, is it good? You've never been? We'll go there after we go to an A&M game. Sorry, continue. No, no, no. Hell yeah! Could you pull up a video for Theo? Yeah, you know what? I have no concept of what this is. It's kind of like Shenyon or whatever.

Starting point is 00:58:40 I was going to say Shenyon. Were you going to say? I was going to say Shenyang. Every... Oh, definitely, huh? This is the fucking... This could literally also be a political national convention. I'll just say that.

Starting point is 00:58:56 Like, I would not be surprised. This one I imagine they were doing at Jonestown. Like, in Jonestown. I don't know what was going on, but... Fast forward where they get to the base. I don't know. Like, I would not be surprised. This one I imagine they were doing at Jonestown. Like, in Jonestown. I don't know what was going on, but... Fast forward, where they get to the paint. They'll put neon paint...

Starting point is 00:59:12 This is Rufus de Sol. They put paint on themselves? They'll put paint on the instruments. And then they turn a black light on and they'll play the drums and it goes everywhere. I had no idea they even did music. I thought that they ran around and kind of hid from each other. Okay. Like I literally that's what I thought Blue Man Group did. This is crazy. If you would take in this style, I would be like, no way. This is Blue Man Group. Wow. Yeah, I saw it in Vegas with my fit. Think about this.

Starting point is 00:59:47 I took a family trip to Vegas with my family at the ripe age of 15. And we saw the- What is that? What is that trip like for a girl? Because a lot of girls go on this trip with their family to Vegas at that cuspy age of like- Yeah.

Starting point is 01:00:02 Like I'm reading One Direction fan fiction, but also like I'm afraid of men Yeah, uh it was terrifying, but it was it was a lot of fun, and I thought the Bellagio was the nicest place on earth Mm-hmm cuz it is I like it Where do you stay when you go to Vegas? Oh God I stay Last time I went I stayed at the Wynn. Wynn's nice. Because that's where I think I had a show at and I really liked it. My friend Jasmine works over there. Okay cool you had a little hookup. So a couple friends that

Starting point is 01:00:35 worked there. I just, the people that I see and I see them repeatedly and I feel more at home. Okay period. Yeah I like the Bellagio, it makes people feel like I'm in Italy. Yeah. That's for people who have never been out of the country. Oh yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah, I remember the first time that we went to Rainforest Cafe. Oh, that's a great example.

Starting point is 01:00:54 I used to take my girl there all the time. It's a nice facility. Facility. Well, I kept promising when I was gonna take her to like, we're gonna do like a Caribbean cruise and skin fucking. It's just Rainforest Cafe. I would, I mean, yeah, I would hope like subliminally it would help our relationship, I guess.

Starting point is 01:01:12 Or like she would remember like, oh yeah, we're gonna do that one day, you know? And? We didn't. Never did. There's nothing more romantic than going to a place where children are running around at your feet, you know? Screaming kids, throwing poop like monkeys.

Starting point is 01:01:31 Yeah. What? What's up? Oh, you were in a very realistic rainforest, Katharine. Yeah, yeah. I don't know about the one you were going to. Have you ever been to, this is so specific, have you interviewed Post Malone? No. Really? Mm-mm. I would going to. You ever been to, this is so specific, have you interviewed Post Malone?

Starting point is 01:01:45 No. Really? I would love to. I've met Post Malone one time. I would. He was groovy. Yeah. You've interviewed him? I've not interviewed him, but I've met, he's a sweetie, I mean, and he's from where I'm from,

Starting point is 01:02:00 well, kind of, he's from Grapevine, Texas, which is in the Dallas metropolitan area. And I used to go's from Grapevine, Texas, which is in the Dallas metropolitan area. And I used to go to the Grapevine Mills Mall, and there's a rainforest cafe there. And I did one time witness a toddler, someone had left on the floor unattended, and they had taken off their diaper and were playing, they were going to play with the poop.

Starting point is 01:02:20 That was what happened. Oh yeah. Oh, it's B-Y-O-B. I feel like for a kid there's no other... I'm not showing up at a rainforest. With an empty diaper, dude. Yeah, with a child own toys, man. Dude, we had, the first time I ever learned about like theater and stuff,

Starting point is 01:02:51 I never really thought about this, but we, in the apartment down from us, they had a married couple, right? And they were, I believe they were gay. Okay. But both of them would always, when I was, when one of them wasn't there, when the wife wasn't there, the husband wasn't there, I would always sit there with their son. And the son, now I know something's probably wrong with him at the time.

Starting point is 01:03:17 I just thought he just was kind of complacent. Okay. And, and the, yeah, the parent, the other parent would always complain about the other one, but it would always be that like, everything they complained about, it was always just like, well, that's what a husband is, or that's what a wife, like. I don't like that he's got a penis. Yeah, it would be like, yeah, like,

Starting point is 01:03:39 I wish she used a comb, you know? And he'd be like, well, then that's, you can't be upset. But they would both play, watch musicals all the time on television. Interesting. And I would always watch like, yeah, there would be like newsies, different stuff like that, different theater stuff.

Starting point is 01:03:59 Okay. So it was the first time I ever saw that stuff, I remember. That's crazy. And then I dated a girl that worked at a Renaissance fair for a little while. Oh, that's fun. I love a Renfest did you ever were you a Competitor, what are they called? No Performer performer. Yeah. No, I wasn't but I did enjoy I love Game of Thrones. I'm a big got fan. Yeah, I've seen some of you. You have a lot of references that yeah

Starting point is 01:04:24 Well, I've got a show that we're trying to get. A royal. Yeah, I got Royal Court. Royal Court. I've got a bunch of, would love to have you on. Yeah, is it for, do guests come on it? I haven't seen it. Yeah, it's a celebrity interview show

Starting point is 01:04:35 that we write the show around them. You just had Drusky on, we're trying to get Drusky on. And he's just the busiest motherfucker alive. That's true. And he rolls with like 45 people with him. So we're trying to get him on. He has a group. We had to get him a bunch of sausages and stuff when they was coming. So what do you mean by that?

Starting point is 01:04:54 Just food items. Oh, okay. Some people want certain stuff. The writer is just full of Jimmy Dean sausages. Yeah, I mean they wanted sausages, you know. Hell yeah. I know, I respect it. Can't hate it.

Starting point is 01:05:07 I love it, that's true. Pretty good. Yeah, we're trying to get Drusky on. We'd love to have you on. Thank you. Backtrack, Renfest. I've only been to a Renfest. I've never performed there,

Starting point is 01:05:18 but I imagine that that is crazy. Because you know how at a bar, all the bartenders usually are having relations with each other Yes, Rinfest is worse. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah the girl that I was dating she ended up leaving me for a guy who was a Did the horseshoes or whatever And it's called a... Tossed him or cleaned him. Yeah, a farrier the guy who re puts him on. How do you spell that? Farrier? Farrier. I watch a lot of those videos sometimes.

Starting point is 01:05:49 Oh, I love those. Sometimes it makes me feel weird though. Sometimes it's like, hey guy. They'll get too deep in there. I did not know that was the word for it. A farrier is a specialist in equine hoof care, including the trimming and balancing of horse's hooves and the placing of shoes on their hooves, if necessary. My sister married the son of a farrier." Farrier. Yeah, farrier. Sweet talking son of a farrier. Preacher man. Yeah, that's, that's, it makes me feel a little weird when they get way too deep in there because it's, I don't know if it's bone and I don't know if it's, is it like what our nails

Starting point is 01:06:25 are made of? Right, you don't know, and you're like, hey, and the horse doesn't have, you almost want the horse to have like a person next to it who speaks horse. Right. Who can be like, that's far enough. Yeah, time.

Starting point is 01:06:43 But yeah, the girl I dated, she was like a little... Yeah, Renaissance Faire, it's home of the white tit. It's home of the mammary. Oh, the girl I dated. Mammary gland. She was just a beautiful little boiled egg of a lady and I... And we... Because it was more of a Ruben-esque woman's world.

Starting point is 01:07:02 Because the skinny girls, they would make them all be in like the malaria area or whatever. Exactly. Or like the plague. Like the skin's coming off or whatever. Psoriasis tent. Yeah. Yeah, if you had like no tits, you were in like the scurvy stable or whatever.

Starting point is 01:07:20 Yeah. Or the pile. You'd have a pile of like three people. You're going to be dead body number four in the pile. That's what they would do. You have to be well endowed to work at the Wrenfest. Oh, she was a fucking little, oh my God. That is crazy.

Starting point is 01:07:34 Look at that. That is crazy. And I love the dress too. I mean like, boob aside. I agree. It's just beautiful period pieces. A lot of people by us would do Civil War reenactments Renaissance Fairs. It's where like yeah a lot of children could get work

Starting point is 01:07:55 Chimney sweeps I'm just thinking like to work for children. Yeah, dude that Renaissance Faire shit that shit was fucking and then I remember she actually auditioned Years later because she stuck with it for like six or seven years. She got really into it. Yeah, it's a lifestyle. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah, it is. Because she even flew to Dallas to audition

Starting point is 01:08:16 for Medieval Times or whatever. I love Medieval Times. And didn't get it. How do you get rejected from Medieval Times? I don't know. I guess it's tough to get it. How do you get rejected from Medieval Times? I don't know, I guess it's tough to get in. There's only one woman slot, by the way, it's the queen. Medieval Times is a sausage fest. Oh, that must be why.

Starting point is 01:08:33 It's all the nights. I don't know. Yeah, look up the Dallas Medieval Times, see how many stars it has. I've frequented that many a time. Really? Yeah. Oh, you know it's what I'm talking about Yeah, I used to live in Lewisville, Texas, which is in Dallas four point seven

Starting point is 01:08:49 We know about that if people don't know what medieval times is you've been right? Yeah. Okay. It's a dinner theater. Yes That is in the middle is a big sand pit where it's literally they'll do equine jousting they'll do equine jousting. They'll do hand to hand combat. Yeah, they'll do, I mean it's. It's crazy. And then each like section of this big auditorium is like,

Starting point is 01:09:15 you get a color and you cheer for your night. You cheer for your color. The bad part that happens is people start abusing drugs usually in the evening and that somebody gets too fucking crazy. When you fall into the horse pit. There's a lot going on. I mean you're sitting there, you're supposed to be like this fine dining experience, the animals, you know, it's some people they don't want to be around it. Then don't go is what I would say. That's true more for us. There's a part which I don't know if you remember this with the Falcon Mm-hmm. They do a you remember this there's a guy that comes out and they're like the royal

Starting point is 01:09:58 Bird whisperer and they come out and it's that guy with the glove and the falcon. Oh, yeah I think the bird was off when I went. Oh, he was off duty or it might have been an off week Oh there. Here we go. Oh, yeah, and this guy Oh, I think maybe I have been but this thing will eat a bread off someone's plate sometimes. Yeah, I Mean you're fucking with nature here. You know what I mean look and he'll send him around He flies through the whole stadium that thing will fucking steal a sister's wig out there, I bet. It'll steal a small child. Happy second birthday to Amelia!

Starting point is 01:10:31 It's got Amelia and it's Clinton. It's really, it's just real unfortunate. I love Medieval Times. It's one of my favorite places on earth. I think it's one of the best things that America's come up with. Yeah, you know, there's not as much dinner, uh, theater. I feel like as there used to be probably. You'd ever used to live in Nashville.

Starting point is 01:10:53 Yeah. I still live in Nashville. Oh, that's right. Yeah. I thought you moved to Austin. I'm going to go tomorrow. No, I think about it sometimes. Um, just, yeah, I think about it. Do you remember I met you in Nashville? Oh my God, I should have had the picture pulled up. I met you, I think it's in the Gulch at that breakfast spot.

Starting point is 01:11:14 Hold on. No, let me think for a second. We can put the picture in later. Yeah, I'll send you the picture. Okay. I saw you come into this place and I was there with my friend Forrest. And I go, I think that's the Yvonne. walked in you're just getting breakfast and he was like holy shit It is and we sat there we were like do we bother him? Oh wait I do it Fenwix Is that what it's called? Bring up Fenwix. It's like a breakfast spot. Yeah, and you go up to the counter in order

Starting point is 01:11:37 And then you go sit down. Oh Is it look let me see the inside I Should have had the picture locked and loaded to show you yeah, I don't think that that's it. No, that's not it Anyway, I met you in 2021 before any of this kind of like wow for me. Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, I was gonna say dinner theater Dolly's got her thing there in Nashville. Dory Parton? In Pigeon Forge. Has a dinner theater?

Starting point is 01:12:06 Yeah. My sister went to Pigeon Forge for her anniversary. Oh, fun. I gotta get, spend some time over there. I haven't spent that much time over there. So yeah, what's it like for you? Cause you weren't a comedian then. Not really, I was a TikToker.

Starting point is 01:12:21 Right. But I wonder if that's just the new like, you know, something's happening in comedy right now to where there's a lot of videos that are being put up or crowd work Yes, and it's not like a lot of material. There's people doing crowd work tours It's crazy, right like it's really Because it just makes me think like and I'm not judging it. I'm just looking at it? Like it's really, because it just makes me think like, and I'm not judging it, I'm just looking at it. But it's like- Is it sustainable?

Starting point is 01:12:49 Right, and then like, are we getting to the point where like things are liquidating kind of, where it's like, you don't need material anymore? But because I hear from some people, it's like, oh, I'm tired of seeing crowd work. And it's like, well, but that's also a masterful art, you know, if you can do it. Well, a lot of the crowd work I see on Tik TOK is like, what do you do? Bro's a banker.

Starting point is 01:13:12 And that's the joke. What are you talking about? What's funny? Like I don't, you know what I mean? Yeah. But it is interesting. I had a guy say the other day is like, you know, one guy, I love him, but he doesn't post anything with any material anymore.

Starting point is 01:13:24 It's just, but then also it's like, you know, one guy I love him, but he doesn't post anything with any material anymore. It's just But then also it's like you have to save your material for when people come out To see your live show. Yeah, like when you go on Fallon or whatever and you have to burn bits It's like I guess that's Part of it. But how else are you gonna get people to want to come? You know, like I don't know It's a difficult thing But at the same time if you're talking about someone like a Matt Rife, where it's like, you're doing crowd work,

Starting point is 01:13:47 but half of the gag is that like people want you. And I mean, he's fallen from grace now totally. And like- Has he? Oh, absolutely. Oh my God, did you miss all this? No, I know that people accused him of something, but that seemed extra, that seemed ridiculous to me,

Starting point is 01:14:02 kind of. His whole comedy special was basically him saying I don't like having a prim- primarily female audience I want dudes to like my comedy and the whole like 30 minutes of his special are like I hate women like I fucking don't you hate it when bitches like it's horrible I didn't know that why would you alienate your audience like that? And that's what I think happens when it's like You got famous from your crowd work and people liked you and women liked you Why would you alienate the women? Yeah, they're the ones that like really support you they buy merch They show up to the meet-and-greet, you know, they I don't know. Yeah, it was sad. Oh, it's interesting

Starting point is 01:14:42 I didn't know that is that a thing that people is that like, is this a thing going on, Nick? Look, he called his fucking thing problematic. Like he's making a joke out of it. Is he topless? Oh yeah. Wow. He's nips out. I didn't know that there had been this fall from grace.

Starting point is 01:15:00 It's bad. Oh gosh. And to do that whole sort of rampage of like, I want men to think I'm funny. Well, they don't brother. So what now? You know what I mean? You lost your woman audience and your man audience.

Starting point is 01:15:13 But he's still selling out dates. So I don't know, maybe it's. So then did he really then? Right. How effective is canceling? Right. Oh, I don't think, I think the best thing you can probably do is get canceled

Starting point is 01:15:24 if it's for something that really means something to you. But if it's just somebody writing an article on some, but yeah, I don't know. I didn't see the special. I didn't either. Oh, you didn't even see it? I saw clips, so I saw the first five minutes. No, I didn't watch the full thing.

Starting point is 01:15:39 Cause I was like, this isn't funny. You know what I mean? Yeah, it's not, I'm not rocking with it. Well, I feel like we should see, I'll have to see it. But I didn't know that there was this fall from grace in the, like in the, why has Matt Rife turned against his female audience? If you've been on TikTok,

Starting point is 01:16:00 you probably had Matt Rife pushed on you. But it's just people found people that he's entertaining. There's a lot of entertaining stuff, man. He's got a lot of great stuff. Well, that's the whole thing is like, we're all entertainers, you know? And I think it's just about highlighting people who are genuinely very funny, very original,

Starting point is 01:16:20 and very creative and like should have a Netflix special. If your whole thing is predicated on controversy, boring, don't care. You know, like I want to tell me a joke. Right. Yeah, that's interesting. I think is there a lot of like some people it feels like they create, it's more about, I'm trying to think of people that it's more about controversy. Like, what does that mean when you say that kind of?

Starting point is 01:16:44 Well, for him, I mean, coming off of all the drama on TikTok, that was when he was like, and I'm here's my special. Oh, I see what you're saying. I did. Yeah. I missed, I think a lot of that boat. I just knew that he was just on tour and that the ladies loved him. And we were talking like, like five months ago, I remember talking about how he was like,

Starting point is 01:17:01 there's not a ton of like that handsome of a guy who gets to also do comedy It kind of works against you in Oh, God Doesn't help you out. I needed you to look over at me. So if I don't fucking his head a fucking Oh God, if my mother would have fucked somebody with some cheekbones, I wouldn't even fucking worry about this shit If she'd have fucked one guy with a dimple in our town Yeah, and look I know that guy didn't have dimples I know it was an incident with a fucking can opener, but still mom bang that guy. Yeah. Oh

Starting point is 01:17:36 But no, I didn't know that that I didn't know that Matt had that fall from Yeah, but I guess if he's still selling out does he even care what's even going on? That's the thing which which is just like, what are we even talking about? Because evidently it just doesn't fucking matter because he's going to make money regardless. I do think that TikTok has become a breeding ground for like, it's very democratic in nature, you know,

Starting point is 01:17:59 of like comics that probably never would have gotten discovered are having a Renaissance. So it's a really cool thing too. And it's also cool for people. Yeah, I mean a lot of people find you and me on there. Exactly, where they never would have found us before. And also, I mean I have such a different path than you. I have no interest in stand up.

Starting point is 01:18:16 But I like obviously this sort of setting and I would say I'm well endowed comedically probably thanks to my dad. But I don't want to take it on Tour or anything like that. So what do you do and you do the internet and you can do it, you know But don't you think eventually you that that could evolve where you may want to yeah, you know, yeah and not and not even like You know, I respect totally what you're thinking, but I've thought about that too. It's like, I'm always somebody, I never wanted, I'm always like, nah, I won't do that.

Starting point is 01:18:50 And then a lot of times I end up being like, oh yeah, this is okay. Yeah. I'm the, you got to force me to do it. And then I'll be like, it's kind of fun. Yeah. I'm worried. Yeah. I'm worried about that when it comes to stand up. Cause I feel like once I start, I can't stop. It's going to be addicting. Oh, start doing it Yeah, I can't bomb though. I'll kill myself The spit I don't care about it's the death

Starting point is 01:19:14 fucking Someone losing their life not to opiates in America if I bomb I'll kill myself. Oh at least once Oh, well, then you're gonna need some extra lives dude dude. It, the craziest part, dude, I remember one time just bombing so hard. What do you do? Your whole, well, my brain was like, I'm not staying here and hanging out with you. My brain like left in like the back of my body.

Starting point is 01:19:38 And then I just remember like a bunch of sweat started pouring down my throat, which had never happened, right? Like you can sweat inside your body. And I was like, oh, this is going so bad. And I still have like 20 minutes left. Oh, fuck me. And it hurts so bad.

Starting point is 01:19:55 It hurts so bad, man. Is that, do you think it was a combo of material? Was it strong enough? Audience blew ass. What happened? Oh, it was, I had to perform at a college. It was lunchtime, right after lunch. It was a lot of like derelict children who,

Starting point is 01:20:16 it's the kids who would come to that thing. It's like, I'm in college. I could be playing video games or just laying in my bed touching my beautiful young body. But instead I'm going to walk over to the student union because I saw a flyer up somewhere. Let me go see this redneck, tell me a joke. So first of all, it's complete derelicts who would even do that, right? Or adventurous people Or people that came strictly to fucking judge you and ruin your day sure

Starting point is 01:20:51 So That's like did you have well you haven't gotten up on stage yet you have or you haven't I've done one Stand-up set did people know you were gonna be there. It was at this like My friends doing a thing at his house, like one of those things. And it was 22 comics on February 2nd of 2022. It was like a two, two, two. Oh, I thought you were saying,

Starting point is 01:21:15 Groundhog Day. Exactly, St. Patrick's. Actually, I think it was on 9-11, February 22nd, yeah, it's 9-11. Groundhog, baby, that forgetful venison, they call it in some cultures. Berman, yeah. That is crazy, that's an American tradition only, right?

Starting point is 01:21:33 Can you look up the history of Groundhog Day? Well, the natives probably had something to do with it, I would guess. And shout out to the natives, and sorry about everything, but I believe that they had a lot to do with it. Dude, the groundhog, who's going to fucking look at a groundhog? Some perv probably. Some perv that was like, and if he comes out of that hole and goes back in the hole.

Starting point is 01:21:53 Yeah. Hey, look, I ain't saying nothing, but I believe this animal's got a little thing for me. Okay. So if he comes out. He got a thing on him. What does it say? Go back to it. What does it say? Go back to it. Groundhog's Day. The Pennsylvania Dutch were immigrants from German speaking areas of Europe. The Germans had a tradition of marking February 2nd as Badger Day. Candlemas?

Starting point is 01:22:17 Of marking Candlemas, which is February 2nd as Badger Day, Dachstag. On which if a badger emerging from its den encountered a sunny day, thereby casting a shadow, it heralded four more weeks of winter. Wow. So it's a badger. We got it wrong. Also, where the fuck does that even come from?

Starting point is 01:22:37 I'm even more confused. Candlemas is a Western Christian festival observed in the Roman Catholic and Lutheran churches in folk religion. Various superstitions continue to be linked with the holiday of Punxsutawney beginnings. The first reported news of a Groundhog Day observance was arguably made by the Punxsutawney Spirit newspaper of Punxsutawney PA in 1886. Up to the time of going to press,

Starting point is 01:23:05 the beast had not seen its shadow. God, first of all. The mark of the beast. It's just the crown. This is how they think of us entertainers. This animal's coming to fucking entertain you. And they saying, oh, this beast ain't even showed up yet. It just goes to show.

Starting point is 01:23:23 It missed its call time. It goes to show. Call time. It goes to show the pain you even have to go through to win over an audience. However, it was not until the following year in 1887, the first ground all considered official was commemorative commemorated there with a group making a trip to the gobblers knob part of town. Okay. Okay. Okay. So I'm not saying it was a little right right

Starting point is 01:23:46 This is a real fellas hanging I bet people have gathered annually at the spot for the event ever since I would like to Go to that one day We could add it to our list of things to do it's on the to-do list when we do our great American road trip Yeah, that's that'll be a real beautiful time. I think that would be really nice. You think he's still alive? That guy right there? Yeah, I'm sure. The marmot. Oh, that animal? Yeah. He looks chill, huh?

Starting point is 01:24:16 He looks like, let me do another take. You got it wrong? Dude, if you've been in there all year, what if you come out and just fuck it up? You're like, fuck. That's so embarrassing. He bombs. You're like I got the news wrong. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:24:28 He comes out of the hole and the little turd comes out and he's real embarrassed. He's like go do it again. He's kicking it back in with his foot. He stepped in it. What do you think about the TikTok band? Did you see it? Yeah, here's the thing.

Starting point is 01:24:44 Just do it. Like I'm tired of this edging. We? Yeah, here's the thing. Just do it. Like I'm tired of this edging. We're gonna do it or we're not gonna do it. I think that it's a red herring for, oh, you really wanna ban an app during an election year, you know, where arguably like, it's a very democratic app in nature, but I think that the timing is intentional.

Starting point is 01:25:02 Oh, you do. So you think, cause who passed it, that Congress or the representatives? Tick tock Congress years long case against bite dance. It was 50 to zero that they're passing this shit along. What are you saying, Zach? It was both sides and it was Congress. Oh wait, both?

Starting point is 01:25:20 But it hasn't passed the Senate yet. But Biden promised to sign it if it hits his desk. So the House of Representatives, the House committee voted unanimously last week to advance bipartisan legislation that would force bite dance. That's the Chinese ownership, right? To divest its TikTok ownership within 165 days. I think it's just a shame because TikTok we've seen it's just it's launched so many businesses and it's a way to share information and it's a way that I mean not to get to like

Starting point is 01:25:47 sociopolitical but like The more we're on social media and the more that we don't like interact with each other. We've lost The concept of third places, you know, like public parks and coffee shops where we can go to talk to each other TikTok is that third place when you ban, was it people gonna go to Facebook? You know, and it's like, you can't really have a community. It's just sad, you know, like we've found a way to actually connect with each other and see cultures and things that we never probably would have seen

Starting point is 01:26:15 and now we're gonna ban it because why? Because of security and privacy. Brother, my social security number and parents address has been on the internet for years. You know, like our credit cards are there What are we actually talking about? We had that's that's part of it. I agree like why You don't think there's so many other sites that have our information I don't trust Facebook and Instagram to have our information just as much as I don't trust a different company

Starting point is 01:26:42 But they're saying since this is a Chinese company that that some of the argument is that China would never allow us to have a company over there but I'm more scared of our information already being completely monopolized Exactly, and if it's not bite dance, it's gonna be you know, name the winner It's just but forcing someone to own it. And I think there's a lot of people that say they don't want like, or there's a theory out there that they don't want information like from Israel, Palestine,

Starting point is 01:27:15 from like the war, like that kind of stuff. Like, you know. Censorship for sure. They want censorship. Yeah. And people want to be able to like have, there'd be like a big three who owns what you can see. You can control it.

Starting point is 01:27:25 And so this is something different. So that almost makes me feel like That could be the reason, you know It's overall just very sad and it's launched so many careers for so many people and it's I think been an overall net positive for I don't know My life specifically but also just like I don't know, my life specifically, but also just like, I don't know, it's fun. Oh, there's no doubt it's fun.

Starting point is 01:27:50 I mean, I find myself getting more, like in my downtime, it's so interesting because each moment is a new, what is this? Even if you have your own algorithms, sometimes you forget that you do and you're just like, what is this? And then sometimes something flies in from like totally out of left field and you're like, um, Wow, that's so I never would have seen that that's interesting. I didn't know I was rocking with this. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, didn't know I was fucking with it like that. Yeah. Yeah, you're like damn. I didn't fucking know I was like that

Starting point is 01:28:22 I discovered Caleb Presley on tiktok really Yeah, he had that clip go viral with Post Malone actually where he was like always tired being a Cowboys fan I was like that's hilarious. Who was this guy? I need him What do you say? He's so funny that's a good impression. He's a wonderful guy. I feel lucky to know him. Yeah, it's so funny. Like, yeah, some of the people you'll get to meet or know, that's true. Yeah, all the friendships you made.

Starting point is 01:28:50 It's also as what we do, where we make content online, that's a major platform going away that you can't promote on, you know? Well, yeah, I mean, it would be really a travesty. Then you would really have to go through like It just yeah, I wonder if there's more to it because I just feel like China has as much of our information as they want That's a done deal at this point. It's like everybody goes to team who or something everybody's buying like shovels or whatever or whatever

Starting point is 01:29:22 They're getting you know, they're buying shovels rope duct tape Whatever. I'm just spitballing here. Frigidares. Do you like living here in LA? How long have you lived here for? I moved from Dallas in like early 2020, right before. The Pandy? The Pandy. So I was paying LA prices to not enjoy LA, which was so much fun. It's all right, I like it.

Starting point is 01:29:50 I think it was culture shock for me at first. I don't know if you experienced that too. Like being from the South, I was like, you bitches are weird out here. Well, there's fast, there's so much going on. There's people on bikes and stuff, and you just don't know what's going on. Yeah, those scooters.

Starting point is 01:30:06 We have, there's just so many little, there's like, there's a lot, there's just a lot more happening. Yeah. It's a lot busier. Like even when I go back to Nashville, like it's just, it's another, so quiet. When Nashville's like,

Starting point is 01:30:19 when you're there, it's like, I gotta go get my kids from school. Yes. You know, like you're hanging out with celebrities and it's like, I gotta go, it's 3's like I gotta go it's 330 damn y'all have real lives here here doesn't it feels like a different planet yes you know it's like not especially in entertainment it's like I don't know what we're all just tweaking it's not yeah it doesn't see yeah you're like what is going on and I just wonder what it's like now if you don't have comedy well I guess now you

Starting point is 01:30:41 started your podcast like if you don't have the, well, I guess now you started your podcast. Like if you don't have the stage. Yeah. It's just interesting to see like, is the stage and doing standup still a viable way where people feel like they can get an audience? It's probably changed. It definitely has. I mean, especially when you talk about selling tickets, how do you get people to care? You know, where do you go post it? Right, they have to see, right.

Starting point is 01:31:06 So you have to be able to have stand up and then, or have some sort of a live show that's good, and then also have people see you. Yeah, have the discoverability. Cause on Instagram, it's like, you can't, people who follow you will see your tour dates. If they don't follow you, who gives a fuck? You know, they don't know about you.

Starting point is 01:31:25 So it's like that's the beauty of TikTok is that anything can go on anyone's For You page. And that's gonna go away maybe. So I mean, that sucks. But YouTube, there will, a competitor will rise when Reels came out on Instagram or YouTube Shorts now where people just need short form content. Or maybe a new app.

Starting point is 01:31:44 I'm hoping for a new app, but we'll see. Yeah. Yeah, it always evolves. What else do we have in the news? Nick, anything else? A son's of OnlyFans model admits he films her content for her. No. Son of OnlyFans model admits he films her content for her. Wow. While most teenage sons can't be bothered unloading the dishwasher for their mothers,

Starting point is 01:32:10 this one goes above and beyond. Oh, I don't like that. Andressa Oroach is a successful OnlyFans content creator and boasts over three million followers on Instagram. Wow. That's really all you had to share with us? That was the best of the all you had to share with us. That was the best of the best.

Starting point is 01:32:28 Wow. Arthur is the one who does it. Man. Arthur's going to that therapy bill is going to be crazy. I mean, but it was a, it's he's. You think he gets a cut? I mean, he used to live in there. So I'm not saying that makes it fair, but it's like,

Starting point is 01:32:52 what's that Miranda Lambert song? You know what they say? The house that built me. Yeah. The house that, you know, they say, you can't go home again. Yep. Yeah. Here we go.

Starting point is 01:33:02 I just had to come back one last time. Man, I know you don't know me from Adam. You like Tyler Childers? But these handprints on the front steps are mine. This is what, if you're filming your mother's vagina, this is a hole. I don't, I think this might be the first time anyone's ever thought about it from that perspective. What Miranda was doing when she wrote that. Well, I'm just saying it as like, yeah. But is it getting to that where people don't have jobs anymore and they're

Starting point is 01:33:36 like, everybody is, you know, you have somebody driving doorash and filming their vagina at the same time just to make ends meet seriously you start to wonder if that's if people keep losing jobs is that how dystopian it ends up you know because then what Brittany oh then what is I think at some point we're all just gonna have to sell post pics even men you got to figure out a way to sell

Starting point is 01:34:04 post pics I think you'd fold figure out a way to sell post pics I think you'd fold your nuts into something kind of romantic or so, you know, I don't know what you would do Origami nut or some you know a thing. Wow, that's cool Something you'd put on a pillow at a night of fucking nice hotel, right? Right, you know, yeah a little trinket something you'd set in the yeah On the toilet roll at a nice hotel, you know, yeah. Yeah. Yeah Man, that's unfortunate any other news. Sorry. That was a lot. We'll get you out here in a few minutes, Brittany Do we have any that aren't fucking life-altering well, this is important and I thought since you were an insurance agent Surely you'd understand this

Starting point is 01:34:50 Taiwan man persuades friend to get legs amputated for 1.3 million dollars. Now see if it wasn't a scam, if it wasn't a scam, do you think it'd be worth it? 1.3 million? Would you do it? No. No, I don't think I would. You think you know somebody that would though?

Starting point is 01:35:13 You could call. Yeah. What if this were that new like phone a friend show and it's like. Sharks. Sharks, I've got a crazy business proposal for you. University student? Oh, he's so young so young forced himself to have a W invitation after he put his feet in a bucket of drives for more Than 10 hours was caused frostbite I Was thinking it was gonna be more like saw style like someone is there

Starting point is 01:35:38 Like with a comedically large saw oh yeah, that's actually God I bet that hurt claims onlaims that on January 26, scroll up please brother, Zhang got frostbite while riding a motorbike with his friend. That's what they said. The prosecution said that a few days before the incident he filed for life, health, and accident insurance. Some of the policies was 1.3 million. He was taken to a nearby hospital where medical personnel thought his wounds were fake. According to the release, the medical staff reported that although the patient's feet were frostbitten,

Starting point is 01:36:13 they were neat and symmetrical. Uh-uh. Injuries and no socks or shoe marks. No fucking way. So how'd they get the amputation then? There's nowhere close to freezing. They're saying he did it to himself. Oh. So they're saying he needed the amputation then? There's nowhere close to freezing. They're saying he did it to himself. Oh, so they're saying he needed the amputation,

Starting point is 01:36:28 but he did it to himself. Oh, also they said in Taiwan, a subtropical region, cases of severe frostbite requiring amputation are unheard of. Yeah, that makes total sense. The plastic bucket that was used to freezing feet, insurance papers, a white polystyrene box contained dry ice, eight cell phones, and electronic devices were discovered by police during their investigation. So they were running a scam.

Starting point is 01:36:53 Oh yeah, if you have eight burners, dude. Man. And, yeah. Wow. That is, I can speak from personal experience. Really? Insurance companies do not give a shit if you live or die. Are you serious or die. Are you serious?

Starting point is 01:37:06 Absolutely. I believe it. Because I worked at a call center for insurance companies. It was like a brokerage. And people would call in, and they'd be like, I'm in a car wreck. And I'd be like, let me pull up your policy one second. Put him on hold for 30 minutes.

Starting point is 01:37:21 They'd be like, my leg. And I'd be like, one second, sir. And listen to the hold music. And I'm pulling up, I'm taking a bathroom break. And I'm like, all right, got your policy right here. How can I help you? They'd be like, I just got hit by a semi and my fucking whatever and my dog,

Starting point is 01:37:35 my dog was in the, please. And I'd be like, I would have to pull up their policy and see where they selected, I don't want that coverage. And I'd have to be like, are you sitting down? We cannot help you. I was like, I am now in a wheelchair. Now I'm forever sitting down. I literally had to be like, on this day at this time,

Starting point is 01:37:55 and I quote, you said, fuck y'all, I'm not paying for that shit. I had to quote it back to them and be like, you rejected this coverage, it's not covered. I'm so sorry Well, what the fuck do I pay for fuck y'all are scammers? It's like with insurance the more you pay for the more it's worth it because when that shit happens not that but like when shit Happens you're gonna be thankful that you would have people yell at you all day every day and call your names Oh, yeah, yeah, I got called a bitch on the phone more often than not, I would argue.

Starting point is 01:38:26 Yeah. It was a good time. God. We used to get angry voicemails from people and we used to play them for each other and laugh. Because you have to laugh at a certain point, you know? Because it's like, you're mad at the situation, not at me. I had to realize that, because I used to cry.

Starting point is 01:38:39 I used to cry. Would you? Yeah, they're so, like people are mean. Oh yeah. You know? I used to cry because I was like, I thought they were mad, like people are mean. You know? I used to cry because I was like, I thought they were mad at me. No, they're mad at themselves for. Yeah, you fucking c***, give me my money.

Starting point is 01:38:51 Literally I have gotten that message verbatim. And I was 21 when I graduated college and I'm sitting there in this desk like, is this the rest of my life? Is that me with a, thank you for calling 10 insurance. And do you have a lunch break too or not? Yeah, I had a lunch break, but I would always try to go over. And so at the end of the lunch, I'd be like, I'm going to go take my dump.

Starting point is 01:39:11 And I'd go in the bathroom and I'd hide. And I'd just be on my phone. And they'd, oh my God, this company was so micromanage-y that I would be in the bathroom. And it was one of those bathrooms where the lights were like motion activated. And I would sit in there for so long that they'd go out People would come into the bathroom and literally knock on the stall door and be britney Uh, uh, it was awful. It was awful. I hated every fucking minute of it Dude at one time I was going to do a number two somewhere in seattle, right?

Starting point is 01:39:40 And uh, capital of america. Yeah, is it what coffee capital poop capital is it well? It's the cat coffee capital so poop checks out. Yeah, um And yeah, I went in I Go in and when I go there's a bathroom attendant in there. There's like a guy working in there, right? It's just handing you a right so I go sit in the stall and the dude comes and knocks on the door like don't worry Bro, I got you, right? I'm like Was he gonna wipe me? I don't know what he means. I'm like, what do you mean you fucking

Starting point is 01:40:09 I don't need anything, right? So now I'm wondering like how much does it cost like was I supposed to pay like a tariff or something like Like how much does it cost to shit in here for a few minutes, you know to be in here defecating and am I running up a tab now? I'm like all concerned, right? It's an hourly rate, yeah. So then here's what happens. The guy, somebody else comes in and knocks on the door, they have to use the bathroom.

Starting point is 01:40:34 This guy, the bouncer, the shit bouncer, whatever, starts yelling at the fucking dude, knocking on the door. He's like, hey my leave my boy as is right well he was defending you he was defending you yeah the bouncer is like hey hey leave my boy as is right and I'm like I don't know either one of these guys out here but he's riding for you yeah yeah that guy's riding for me yeah so they actually ended up getting a little bit of altercation, but... And you're just pants around your ankles.

Starting point is 01:41:09 Yeah, I'm just like, why did I pick this place? Yeah, you're whole out. Yeah. Oh. That's, that's, you ever been walked in on while you were shitting? Like someone opened the door? I did it at a woman's restaurant the other day. Apparently it was a gender sex uniform restroom. And I didn't know. I mean, I guess I did it at a woman's restaurant the other day. Apparently it was a gender sex uniform restroom.

Starting point is 01:41:26 And I didn't know. I mean, I guess I did know. I went in there and it just said it was like in somewhere and I opened the door and there's a woman sitting right there. She'd forgotten to lock the door. Well, that's not necessarily your fault. I mean, that's like, if you're not locking it. Yeah, I wonder if she likes that

Starting point is 01:41:48 Probably not but what can you do at that point? You know, it's like and then you got to stand outside and be like you done She's kind of walked by you as you walk in. That's the weirdest. No, just leave the restaurant at that point. Yeah Yeah, I think that's weird if I'm in the bathroom, so I won't even come out until the bathroom is empty usually That's that's the way to do it. Really? Yeah. Well, yeah, I don't want to look that person in the eye. You just saw my gooch. Or even if you're just in there, yeah.

It was the day after she died. She'll never see it. Yeah, I remember Princess Diana died. I was at my friend's house and he was a homosexual

Starting point is 01:43:48 prize fighter, right? One of the toughest fighters that they had in our area. And he invited me over there. In the gay weight class? Or what does homosexual have to do with it? No, they didn't have it. He was only a fighter? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:44:01 Okay. But he was the toughest guy around, but he was also gay, but people were like- Period. So they just didn't even have a guy like him. Okay. And he was, and he sold a bunch of weed to the kids, but he was awesome. Yeah, he sounds awesome. Oh yeah.

Starting point is 01:44:16 Can you shove him on the pot? He's deceased. But- Damn it. Yeah, he drove into an embankment actually, but he was, before that, he, we were at his house, getting high over there, and he's like, yeah, Princess Diana died, and he started bawling, crying,

Starting point is 01:44:33 and I didn't know Princess Diana was. And I thought it was like our mayor, his wife or whatever in our town. You thought her first name was Princess? Well, I just didn't know, Like it was such a big deal. And he had all these beanie babies, these Princess Diana beanie babies, but. Wow.

Starting point is 01:45:02 Yeah, do you think, what does the royal family even do though? That is actually a great question. What do the kings do? Regrettably, a number of the king's forthcoming public engagements have been rearranged or postponed. He sounds like he's dead. His majesty would like to apologize.

Starting point is 01:45:23 But what does he do? I mean, I think they just like eat beans on toast and like be very royal. They be royal and they like be racist sometimes. Yeah. For fun. Wasn't that it was a big thing that Queen Elizabeth like fucking hated Meghan Markle. Did she really? Yeah. Oh wow.

Starting point is 01:45:44 It's like blatant racism for fun. Oh These meetings are completely private and no official records have kept what is said He receives daily dispatches from the government in a red leather box Including briefings out of important meetings or documents needing his signature Wow The king is the UK head of state, but his are largely symbolic and ceremonial. He remains politically neutral. Interesting. There's something so silly about all that garb. Yeah I wonder if you didn't have it though. What would it be too much of a loss of tradition? Right. Have you seen the coronation chair? It's like a graffitied, ugly,

Starting point is 01:46:25 yeah, look up King Charles coronation chair. It's like the most unassuming, it's like the most important throne in all of royal history of the UK. Oh, wow. It's just ugly and it's like wood and it's got graffiti on it. It looks like the birthday chair at a Texas roadhouse

Starting point is 01:47:55 You go, yeah, I'll let you play it. Fake collars from Amazon so I can wear a sweatshirt and not have to put a collared shirt under it. And girl, that's so stupid as fuck! So bad! Dude you look like every character from Harry Potter in one person right there You know who I look like? Fucking Chris Farley from that one, the Chippendale sketch Look it up! That's what I look like! No angel baby, you do not look like that.

Starting point is 01:48:26 That is, that is your imagination. I put the top on for mine. This, I remember my mother showing me this. Oh my God. I really was like, this is about to be a fashion moment. Wasn't humiliating. I can't believe it. How much did they charge you for those?

Starting point is 01:48:47 That'll run you about $4.99 a pop. And you don't think China has our information? They know the width of Britney Broski's neck. They know my neck cup size. Well, she's got some Ds on her. It's a girthy, it's a D cup neck. Hey look, it's a 12 inch neck she's riding on. It's a good diameter.

Starting point is 01:49:14 Yeah, that shit was real humbling. What else, Nick, anything else good in the news? I feel like they were kind of negative from if we we had an uber driver attacked in Chicago, New York City squatters Uber is leaving Minneapolis Yeah, that's crazy. What's that about? Yeah, I saw that uber is uh Wait uber's no longer gonna be working in many uber's longer going to be working in Minneapolis. Uber and Lyft, right? Burt.

Starting point is 01:49:46 Excuse me. Very fair. You can audition for the yell team. Thank you so much. Oh, it's only guys. It's only guys. Damn. Why don't they have a women's one?

Starting point is 01:49:57 Nope. Tradition. It's horrible. There will be one day when there's a woman yell later. God willing. After the Minneapolis City Council voted 10-3 to override Mayor Jacob Fry's veto of a ride-hailing pay raise ordinance on Thursday, Uber says it will pull out of the entire Twin Cities metro starting May 1st. Uber wrote, we are disappointed the council chose to ignore the data and kick Uber out of the Twin Cities, putting 10,000 people out of work and leaving many stranded, but we know that by working

Starting point is 01:50:27 together with all stakeholders, drivers, riders, and state leaders, we can achieve comprehensive statewide legislation. I don't trust Uber. What's going on? What are they supposed to do? Cabs? Oh, the new ordinance aims at guaranteeing drivers earn minimum wage in Minneapolis. It requires ride-hailing companies to pay drivers rates

Starting point is 01:50:45 equivalent to the city's minimum wage of $15.57. Amen, I think they should have to do that. They definitely should. So that's why, they don't want to pay them $15.57. They'd rather ban both companies, that's crazy. They didn't ban it, Uber and Lyft voluntarily pulled out. Oh! I see, so they're saying if you want to work here,

Starting point is 01:51:04 you have to pay them that much. I think that that's fair. I think that, I see. So they're saying if you want to work here, you have to pay them that much. I think that that's fair. I think that I was just in Australia and they have there, it's like a livable wage, right? I can't imagine that. So people can get like $30 an hour just like for like so many jobs. What is it? Look it up Nick, so I know what I'm talking about. But you know what? First of all, you... Whoa! 23.23 per hour. It's a minimum pay rate provided by the Fair Work Act of 2009.

Starting point is 01:51:35 That's like what I was making with a full bachelor's degree. Yeah. Like, I worked my ass off to make $20 an hour. That's crazy. And so, uh, the crazy part was you would see, so then everybody was like kind of happy in their job. It's like, everybody knows that they're going to be able to survive. They're going to make it through. So there was this total energy.

Starting point is 01:51:58 Australia's minimum wage is go back is Australian 23, 23 per hour for adults over the age of 21. So actually the Australians the same amount as US though it's $15.23 US. Is America's that? Well I guess it depends on the state. Yeah what's our um... I tell you I used to work at Baskin Robbins. I made $7.25 an hour. California, it's $16 an hour. But the cost of living in California is so much higher than everywhere else. It's unbelievable.

Starting point is 01:52:32 The federal minimum wage for covered, non-exempt employees is $7.25 per hour. Do you ever work in the food industry? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I used to sell Mexican food for a living. And what else? Um, yeah, I worked at a... another Mexican spot and then, yeah, I was a waitress or whatever, waiter. You were not a waiter, you were a waitress.

Starting point is 01:52:59 I was a waitress. Which one did you work at? Uh, Baskin-Robbins. Oh, you did? I worked at Baskin-Robbins. I was slinging cream. Were you? Yeah. Praise God, mama. I was slinging cream at the age of 16.

Starting point is 01:53:10 I worked there 16 until I turned 18. Oh, really? Now, did a lot of guys come in there to flirt? Because I feel like a... Really? It's old people who go... Like, to physically go into a Baskin Robbins, it was like old people being like,

Starting point is 01:53:24 I'll have the regular. Sir, I just started working here, what's your regular? And that's gonna be a large milkshake. Imagine a large at one of those places. Praline, butter pecan praline milkshake. And that shit's delicious. I can't lie. Old people, they love pistachio, they love butter pecan,

Starting point is 01:53:43 praline, whatever, all those like, seems nasty, pretty good. And I would have to make these grown men who like own companies their milkshake. Oh wow, so they like it. It is an old fashioned kind of place, Baskin Robbins. It is. And it seems like, but it's prominently, is it a white clientele mostly?

Starting point is 01:54:00 It's a white clientele, yeah. Cause I worked at, what was the one, um, Cold Stone Creamers. Oh, that's where they do the scoop and the chop and the- Yeah, we were fucking yeah. You did that? Huh? Oh, I chopped the shit with a credit card. I'm looking at how you get weird boy. You're dipping it in that water, that murky water. I'm raging in that bitch. Two amexes. You're doing it with your hands. Yeah god it was fun. Cold Stone was like a culinary experience. Oh yeah, Cold Stone was a vibe, man.

Starting point is 01:54:48 What's your order? I like cake batter straight up. You didn't do any mixings? I would throw in a little bit of sprinkles, but nothing crazy. I don't like it where it like infects the ice cream so much and it gets colored out. So I just put it in a certain area and eat it fast.

Starting point is 01:55:01 Almost like put a little mustache of sprinkles on it. Right, right. Get that in me first. A ribbon. Yeah, I eat it fast. Almost like put a little mustache of sprinkles on it. Right. Get that in me first. A ribbon. Yeah. Yeah. I liked it though. Yeah, what else? Well, the Uber drivers, well, in Australia, so everyone makes a little weight, so you'll see like a gorgeous woman working construction. Period. What's wrong with that? Nothing. You don't see it. We see more of that. We need more. Yeah. Yeah It's just like you don't you would see like a supermodel So that I'll put it like that you would see a supermodel working in like you'd be walking by the constructions

Starting point is 01:55:38 You oh my fucking god like What I will just build I will let that lady fucking just build my build it like a My fucking God. Like, what? I will just build, I will let that lady fucking just build like a two bedroom, two bath in my heart. Yeah, yeah, crown molding. Yeah. I trust her with my life. Yeah, so it just, I guess that was kind of interesting. I think, yeah, that just the minimum wage is too low.

Starting point is 01:56:02 But I don't know enough about economics to learn about that. And I'm kind of in the same boat with you don't know enough about economics to learn about that. And I'm kind of in the same boat with you. I should have somebody on to talk about that with. Yeah. You should see if Caleb's available. Yeah, he doesn't know. Tennessee could ban marriage between first cousins.

Starting point is 01:56:17 Wait, Tennessee. No! Yeah. Oh, come on! Dude, my buddy Justin's gonna be pissed. I'm not even joking, dude. Come on! Well, my buddy Justin's gonna be pissed. I'm not even joking, dude. He... Come on! Well, here's the thing. Here's why they're even... What do you mean?

Starting point is 01:56:32 I'm not saying... It depends on where you live. Here's the thing. If you don't have any gas money, your parents don't have a car, you live in an area, how far will you walk for love that's the question for gooch what would you do for gooch well at a certain point if your family lives rural enough how far are you gonna walk to make love how far would you walk to make love me 12 miles you're capping it at 12 yeah I'm not walking after that I'm like who's within this area? Yeah. And if you do it myself with, if it's over 12. Oh yeah. But I think,

Starting point is 01:57:11 yeah, just interesting, I guess. I will admit I did not know that it was already legal to begin with first cousin. That's your parents, siblings, kid. Right? Yeah. Now I'll say that. That is a little too close to home, I think. That's like for real inbreeding. That's not even like, oh, it's a third cousin on your mama's side and she got divorced three times. That's your for real blood. Yeah, why buy the cow when you can just smash your cousin?

Starting point is 01:57:40 You know, that's that kind of thing. I feel like it's like. But House Bill 2041, initially filed for introduction by Representative Darren Jernigan, prohibits marriage between first cousins. Wow. What does that say about Dan and Shay? Dan and Shay are supporting?

Starting point is 01:58:01 Dan and Shay surprise, oh, I thought that was related. Are they surprised the voice fans downtown? Nevermind. Yeah, that's actually crazy that it's legal. I know. Gosh. Are we supportin' Bill 24? I think that at this point, especially with Uber,

Starting point is 01:58:20 now if you live in Minneapolis- You could be fuckin' your cousin. But with Uber, I think you gotta figure that out. In this sort of scenario, I mean, Tennessee, that's already pretty, that's redneck. Some places get pretty rural. Yeah. Yeah, if you get it out of East Tennessee.

Starting point is 01:58:38 If you remove Uber and Lyft from Tennessee, we're dealing with something major. Yeah. A pandemic, an epidemic, you know. Yeah, I wonder what would happen if all those things went away. We would go back to almost a different time, really. That's what I'm saying.

Starting point is 01:58:52 I was talking about third places earlier. Like, what if we have to leave our houses? What would we do? Oh, like where would we go? Yeah. Yeah, cause I guess like, yeah, like, you're more of like a culture where everything is really on social media, you know?

Starting point is 01:59:05 Whereas my life's been kind of split where that wasn't really the case. So it's like, you just, it's a different time. It's just more, I will say this, there's more room for imagination and you used to leave things up to chance more. Like it felt like if you saw somebody or ran into somebody or then it was like, there was like, like oh the world has some purpose in this yeah yeah it's gone

Starting point is 01:59:31 now I feel like everything you hide behind a screen what's there to risk there's no like spontaneity yeah them right yeah the man yeah there wasn't as much like will I see them again and if you do it meant there was like so much value and build up like yeah what if I will I ever see them again? And if you do it, it meant there was like so much value and buildup, like, what if I, will I ever see them again? What if I never see them, you know? You talking about like potential partners or friends? Yeah, potential partners, yeah. Like if you saw a girl, then you would just pine over

Starting point is 01:59:56 until like the next time you saw her, and you're like, oh, when I see her, I'm gonna say something, and then you wouldn't say anything. You'd be like, but when I see her next time. Exactly. And then it would be 20 years later, she would be married and you'd be like,

Starting point is 02:00:08 but when I see her. Things are gonna be different. If I just would have seen her. Oh, if I just would have seen her. Now you can find her address and show up to her house or send her a DM and say, just your penis. I see you.

Starting point is 02:00:23 Yeah, I see you. I'm outside your house. Yeah. Scary. What do you. Yeah, I see you. I'm outside your house. Yeah. Scary. What are you, yeah, I saw you went through some love issues. Recently, there was a guy you had kind of met and it fell off. Yeah, I had an Irishman.

Starting point is 02:00:33 When we were talking about the Irish, had an Irishman that I met on a Christian dating app that I did a brand deal with. And I was like, they gifted me premium. And then the premium ran out and I went ahead and paid for it myself. 34.99 a month. Get your life.

Starting point is 02:00:50 And I got it. And I found this beautiful young gentleman and he was- In Ireland or in US? He's gonna be in Dublin. He's in Dublin. And I was in Nashville at the time. And I was, so we were messaging and he was still awake cause that's what?

Starting point is 02:01:02 That's Eastern time. Yeah. So they're only five hours ahead, but back here it's eight hours ahead. So it just sort of slowed down, and then he was responding to me like every three to five business days, and I was like, this isn't very romantic,

Starting point is 02:01:14 you know what I mean? Yeah. He was so funny though, because I'm always worried, you know when you talk to people from other countries, it's like, you're going to get my sense of humor. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:01:23 And he did, and he was smart, and he like went to college, and I was like, it's like, you're gonna get my sense of humor. Yeah. And he did, and he was smart, and he like went to college, and I was like, okay, okay. But I'm going to Ireland in July. You'll see him then, you think? I'll see him. So were you guys FaceTiming and stuff, chatting like that?

Starting point is 02:01:35 No. Not one voice message, not one. No way, not even a voice message from an Irish. You gotta get it. He did tell me though, he said, he goes, I need to tell you something. And and I was like there's nothing you could say because I'm so I've built him up In my mind. I'm like there's nothing you could say. He said I've got some fucked up teeth Does he and I hit dozy and I said they can't be that bad. He sent me a photo just of the teeth

Starting point is 02:01:59 Yeah, it's bad Not that good. It's not that good and I's not that good, and I don't really have dental insurance I can offer him. We're kind of self-employed entertainers. You can get him a package, oh no, you go, I know his look like, yeah, if your teeth look like the ones you see in the bones of a skull or whatever,

Starting point is 02:02:16 that's always bad, you know? A Victorian skull? Yeah, that usually feels bad to me. Yeah, you got teeth that belong in a museum. Yeah. That usually feels bad to me. Yeah. You got teeth that belong in a museum. Yeah. That's what that is. He sent me that photo and I said, Oh,

Starting point is 02:02:31 yeah, what is that? I wonder, because there is something about you meet people online. It just feels so tough. Like it's like, does this mean any, what's going on here? And then you'll spend so much time in this fantasy world of your own. Like you see their pictures You think about this you've seen them from so many angles. You're like God, it's you think you know them. You don't know that person

Starting point is 02:02:53 No, you don't know them at all and you have all these judgments already about them Yeah, without any of their own real energy. That's it's very true I'm like I'm filling in the blanks with what I want them to be Oh, yeah, he could be a fucking perv loser, but I'm like in my head we're married. Where we've been happily married. We have some tiffs sometimes, but you know we're married. And it was in the church and we have two kids. But it's like yeah, it's scary to think like I'm going to his country, a place I've never been before. And so you told him like hey, I'm coming there, and did you do it to go see him?

Starting point is 02:03:23 I wouldn't care if you did. Yeah. Yeah, we've all done things like hey, I'm coming there and did you do it to go see him? I wouldn't care if you did yeah, yeah, we've all done things. I mean hello You've never flown across world for a dick appointment. You're lying I've flown some places domestically. Oh, yeah, okay, if you add them up. Yeah, it's definitely an international flight Yeah, you got some Delta points At least a free flight probably. You hit a diamond medallion. Or flown somebody in, you know. That's crazy. I want to get to that level.

Starting point is 02:03:50 I want to start flying dudes out. But it's just what he's doing. You're going there. Or just the girl coming to see me. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. But you front the bill, right? Yeah, I think that that's fair if they're spending their time to do it. Right. Yeah, I'm going to start doing that for men.

Starting point is 02:04:04 I think that's... Yeah. I'm spending their time to do it right yeah, I'm gonna start doing that for men I think yeah, I'm gonna get some dudes flew down Dude, no, I see it. Well. That's a thing. It's just interesting. It's like yeah How do you find because a lot of relationships are online these days? I just saw an article the other day See if you've seen anything Nick and then we'll get out of here Brittany The the place people meet now is online. It used to be an actual real place. Yeah. But that's over now.

Just find them for us in a little graph or in a, not a graph, but in a, just a list if you can, brother. Um, what it's like, yeah, cause I, I wonder what things do you miss by not having that old fashioned thing?

Yeah, there's something real interesting about that Hoseyer. He's about six foot seven and that's not a joke. Oh god. Big monster of a man. Love him seven, and that's not a joke. Big monster of a man, love him. That's a long boy. If you're stretched out. God, imagine being that long and just longing around everywhere

Starting point is 02:09:34 and you can't even hide, you know? That would break my heart. But at concerts, I bet it's nice you can look over everybody. But then people meet up at you at fairs and stuff. Yeah, meet at the big Irish guy yeah, yeah, just meet at Danny at 11 Wherever Danny's gonna be you gotta trust him Danny just y'all gets all fucked up and he's never there that is crazy Now it is crazy

Starting point is 02:10:04 Anything else man, I thought there was one other thing I was gonna ask you about yeah let me hear it uh you know we didn't even get into I had questions for you too you did we'll have to do a part two okay I had questions about God and about but you've talked about that a little bit before not that much you know I think about that a lot I've been trying to have a better relationship with God. I was going to say, because you did not grow up, like, in the church. No.

Starting point is 02:10:31 But it's been a journey for you. Yeah. Especially with sobriety and, you know, just getting older and the more you realize about the earth and the world and people, where have you landed? Yeah, I think I need a faith. Love that. But does it have to be nominal, like Christian or? No, I think I prefer, I don't know if I prefer is the word. I use Christianity,

Starting point is 02:10:57 because that's the thing I'm most familiar with. So I think I use a lot of those kind of symbols. I think I use a lot of those kind of symbols. You know? But I think, yeah, it could be any way you used to find faith, you know? And build a relationship with a higher power. I just find that I just need it more and more. It's just too much strain.

Starting point is 02:11:18 I just can't handle it. That's real. Unless I like, you know, I've been just trying to say thy will be done more often and say that as much as I can. It's just like, suddenly like everything is not my responsibility. Yeah. Because that's how I get to feeling like that everything in the world is my responsibility. Yeah, way is heavy.

Starting point is 02:11:37 Oh, it's just this weird stacking weight that you don't even realize is happening. Yeah, it's also self-inflicted. Like you did that to yourself. Right. And it used to be a good skill when I was a kid because I felt a lot of self-responsibility like I have to take care of myself. So then it made sense. It was like everything is my responsibility it feels like so I need to do that. But then as I got older it's not this it's like it's you're not a kid anymore just trying to get look their little life done. Yeah. Now you're not a kid anymore just trying to get their little life done. Now you're an adult, everything is not your responsibility, you know?

Starting point is 02:12:09 And it shouldn't feel that way all the time, you know? I like that. I like that it's kind of outside the bounds of like the church, but it's still familiar. I like that. Yeah, what do you feel about it? Oh man, I'm ex-Christian. You are? Yeah. Oh, you feel about it? Oh man, I'm ex-Christian. You are? Yeah. Oh, you're a, you were a Christian? I was, I was raised in the Baptist church.

Starting point is 02:12:30 Oh really? It's like, well, Baptist on my mom's side and Pentecostal on my dad's side. Pentecostal, they get wild, they skirt it up. They skirt it up, they got, it's almost like Amish sometimes. It's, speaking in tongues and like firing brimstone. So I feel like I have two extremes on both sides.

Starting point is 02:12:50 And that's a weird way to come up, because it's like, especially as someone who's funny and has success, which I'm so grateful for and I'm so fortunate, to accredit that to a God and not me and what I've built is kind of where I struggle. You know, where it's like all glory to this other thing, but he didn't, I did the work, you know? And so much of it, I think is chance.

Starting point is 02:13:17 TikTok happened at a certain time that I happened to be posting videos. I'm not more deserving than any other person. We just got lucky. So I struggle with it sometimes of like, I've been told that you need to look at the world this way, but I don't. So what do you do? And I sometimes have trouble sleeping a night over it, but I don't miss the church. Yeah. Did you meet any men in the church? They're very judgmental. Are they? Yeah, Christian men are the first to shame you. Yeah, the church can be like that, you know,

Starting point is 02:13:49 even like Kat Von D was here and she's a Christian, she's like turned her life over to Christ recently and she was just talking about how, yeah, some of the first to judge so often are like, that you're not doing it the right way, All that kind of shit to me seems ridiculous. Everybody's just trying, they're trying, you know? And they're trying to figure out. And I think it also, like some of that relationship

Starting point is 02:14:14 evolves over time. Definitely. Yeah, I think I got to the point where I just feel like the gods are up there, like, doing their fancy stuff and having like a dinner there like doing their fancy stuff and having like a dinner and like doing things. And then like a crumb of like creativity falls off of their table and like, and it hit me

Starting point is 02:14:35 in the fucking back of the head or something when I was a fucking kid. Left that dent. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was wondering what that misshapen dent was. So I think I feel like that, like, I just feel lucky that sometimes that I get to be like a conduit.

Starting point is 02:14:50 Like some people, everybody's kind of a conduit at different times for joy. You know, somebody can even just hug you and they can be like that. Some people have the best hugs, some people have the best, they make the best. Squash casserole. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:15:03 And some people make the best or great art yeah yeah condo vessels a great sort of image as well just like a yeah conduit of joy I love that yeah I'm just like a radio station for the Lord you know it's like everybody is FM JC and sometimes it's fucking rattly bullshit but every now and then you catch something it's like all right right, it's all right. Yeah. You know, so I don't know. I know you help a lot of people too, who have similar. Yeah, we got a lot of people,

Starting point is 02:15:32 we have a lot of people going through it. You got a lot of broken fans. Yeah, yeah. Oh, we are a meetup of really fucking, some real beautiful fucking animals. Yeah, I got, my audience is incredibly gay and female and also non-binary, but also very mentally unwell. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:15:55 And I love it. Yeah. You gotta have a little flavor. Well, yeah, and I think people are trying to, it's tough to figure it all out. It is, it's hard. Yeah, and I think it's gotta be really tough if people, especially when it comes to people being non-binary

Starting point is 02:16:10 or a lot of that stuff, I can't even imagine. My friend is a comedian and then he got, he transitioned to a woman. And it's just been interesting to see what what that is like like for him, you know, I watched your video you posted I loved it on When someone called in and asked for advice on being a man. Yeah, I thought your response was so beautiful Oh, thanks. Yeah, her name's Theo to actually this lady and Yeah, it was interesting.

Starting point is 02:16:46 Yeah, you just try to give somebody some pointers, you know? Yeah, and just grace. Red Rover, yeah. Oh yeah, I can't imagine, dude, if I went over to being a woman, I don't know, the first thing I would do when I would get there, probably close the door and be like, what are we in it now? This is a lot.

Starting point is 02:17:02 What's going on down here? Or just all of it. Yeah. Gosh, I couldn't even imagine. Imagine all of the new things you would have to do. Especially- I'm imagining it. Yeah. If you go, I wonder which way is easier

Starting point is 02:17:14 if one way is easier than the other. I would imagine, well, I won't even try to speak to it. But I do think that there's like, I think women know more about men than men know about women because we've had to figure out how to live in a man's world. Y'all have never had to figure it out.

Starting point is 02:17:36 You know, like- It's a good point. I think that that, and I'm not saying it would be easier. I'm saying that there is more knowledge that we know. Yeah. If that makes sense. Yeah, I would probably think that about men you mean.

Starting point is 02:17:52 Yeah. Oh, definitely. Because we're always wondering what do men think, what do men like, what do this, what do that. And I know men think the same thing, but it's also like, especially when you talk about religious communities or in the South where it's like, your whole life expectancy is like, you get married to a man, you have his babies, that's your life.

Starting point is 02:18:09 You know, it's not really career driven, the way that it is in like maybe New England or the West Coast. Like it's very traditional. Do you think it's better, do you think one is really better than the other though? Cause I've thought about that. It's like, cause then I have friends that like,

Starting point is 02:18:23 just work forever and then they achieve all their goals and work but then they don't have a family and they feel you know some type of way about it. I think to each their own I don't ever want kids. Yeah. You don't? No never never. We're not gonna have any little yellow M&Ms running around. Damn. What about some Irish ones, eh? What about some what? Some Irish M&Ms. Some Irish M&Ms, maybe.

Starting point is 02:18:49 Dude, if you could have a little fucking Irish kid, there's no way you couldn't imagine that. Hey, Mom. I think that having little ginger babies around me would freak me out. What are y'all doing? You know? Oh, definitely.

Starting point is 02:19:03 Why do you look like that? They won't even allow you to donate ginger semen anymore at the sperm bank. They banned Ed Sheeran from the sperm bank.
