The best thing they got going here, they got Curt Schilling.
You remember that guy.

Heisman Trophy winner.

Yeah, you know the numbers are weird.
It's a weird age to be, too.
38.
You're not 40. No. you're not 38 you're not 40 no you're just you're
you're 38 yeah like 39 is cooler because you're almost 40 so it's your last one in the 30s there's
a sense of urgency with 39 38 is you're just standing in line at the dmv like i really
expected more out of this decade i i feel like I let myself down. I let
my teammates down 38. When you're broken down on the side of the road without triple a and nobody's
stopping, just looking around. Um, anyways, um, I gotta be honest, man. I don't know how your guys
week is going. I'm having a horrible, this is one of the worst weeks my neck is fucking
killing me i woke up i couldn't move it i went to physical therapy it took like 10 of the pain away
okay i'm going through shit in life personal all kinds of shit all right i went oh for four in the
nfl picks i mean yesterday i was in New York city, a bird shit on me,
a bird shit on me, dude. I felt, and it was a beautiful day. Hey, I'm having a rough one.
It was a beautiful day. The sun was out. I was in the city. I was running around doing all kinds of shit and I feel a drop and I look up thinking it's going to be from like an air conditioner or
something. And it was just bird shit that like landed hard on my arm. And I call my wife and she just had a positive spin.
Oh, it's good luck.
Things are going to have a better, but I am having a week.
So you know what I'm doing tonight, fellas?
This is what I'm doing.
I'm taking my little boy Lucas to opening night at Madison Square Garden,
one of my favorite places to be.
And we are going to go see the opening day,
New York Knicks against your Boston Celtics at the garden.
It's at seven 30. You guys gave us Kemba Walker.
So it's like, he just switched teams for the night.
So we'll see how that goes. And, um,
Oh, is he on you? He's on your team now.
Yeah. Him and that other guy for it for the, the other guy that you had there, the European guy.
Oh, what did we get him? And I don't even know what what the deal was.
But I'm just looking to be in the garden with my son, enjoy a game and put this horrible, horrific week behind me.
horrific week behind me so how was your week bill um i you know i've had a week my uh my rescue dog died oh yeah i'm sorry to hear that yeah we had to well you know that's a whole long story that
whole thing i'm not getting into that but uh she was an awesome dog and uh you know she defied the odds i don't know how many times
i mean when you have a rescue pit bull that's aggressive with people they usually don't stay
on this planet for longer than a year and a half and she lived for 13 years yeah final years in
arizona when the babies came i literally had to get rid of her because she would have ate the
babies i, it was
a really dysfunctional fucking relationship.
I'll tell you that. But I loved her.
My wife loved her and she loved us, but she
fucking wanted to kill everybody else.
Final years like it was
a guy retired in Florida.
That's what I said. No, he's in a row.
No, she lived her final years like
a retired Republican.
Republicans go to Arizona.
Liberals go down to Florida.
If you've noticed, Paul, where are all the hurricanes?
Down in the Florida area.
God doesn't like liberals because they feel that they're better than everybody else.
And then conservatives, he just feels they're so fucking stupid.
They just put them out in the desert?
Just stick them out in the desert and just let them walk around.
Well, you know what?
God doesn't like anybody, Paul.
That's amazing that the dog lived that life.
That's what I said to Stacey the other day.
I go, dude, our cat is going to be 17 in two months.
I go, this kid is playing with house money
okay he's he's fucking killed a ton of mice in his day just numbers of birds have been left in
my fucking garage so now he's just what you're saying is there's a lot of mice and birds counting
the days that fucking cat is gone yeah all the rodents in my neighborhood are like he's still
fucking stacy said he tried to jump on the bed and do this is like this is a cat that like could almost get on top of the refrigerator
and now he tried jumping on our bed just missed it's just like and then but like he got up there
eventually but i can't dunk anymore yeah anytime i always say this anytime you have an animal yeah you can't dunk anymore um anytime
you have an animal that beats its life expectancy you you just did it as a fucking animal lover
animal owner you just fucking know my dog lived in uh the lap of luxury and just you know i mean i
i'm trying to think of how many hikes I lost count,
how many hikes I took that thing on. I love taking her out,
wrestling with her, you know, sleeping with her on the couch.
My wife wouldn't be in town. I had dog was up in the bed. She ate great.
She always had a brand new bed.
I saw the way she lived versus the way she treated all of our friends and
family.
It's a lot of people that ran back out to their cars when we didn't know how
to control her.
Yeah, man. I saw your Instagram posts and I get,
I get like that with animals,
but what's funny about animals like that is it's amazing that an animal would
kill other people. An animal can't be around children.
An animal can't be around other animals yet. They'll snuggle with you.
That's like amazing. That's an amazing thing that like, they just,
there's one guy.
Maybe they read people better than I, than you know, you or I do.
Look at that Paul. Like how many people are like,
truly just like going to be a friend.
I just think a pit bull has like a, you know, their line just isn't as far down the road as mine was.
Dogs don't fuck it. Yeah. The animals don't fuck around. Yeah. Like, dude, I don't know if this guy online, I don't know if you saw this guy online with the lion, but dude, I'm telling you right now, you want to, that line's never hurting this guy. I never seen anything like this lion was so in love with this motherfucker that like he was doing this thing with it. And the lot dude, this lot.
And he was fucking like the lion was like tickling him. I'm going like,
I know that they've said some of those things and bad.
That's going to end bad, Paul. I don't know, dude.
This lion was doing everything wild animal. I know, I know.
But dude, they had a bond. I know. But, dude, they had a bond.
I'm telling you, dude, this thing loved this fucking guy.
Until one day he gets home late and he didn't give him a chance to give him
those 43 steaks in the morning.
He went to Hibachi.
He has a little cut on his neck.
Dude, do you know, I remember hearing this story when I was in Florida.
A Florida man,
he met this chick at a bar and he had a giant fucking Python,
like behind this big glass thing. And she was all freaked out by it.
And he was fucking hammered and he goes,
no,
no,
it's fine.
The thing loves me.
And he went in there and he fucking bumped his head and it caused him to
fall down.
And he bled a little bit and just the thing's tongue tasting the blood in the air. Oh man. And yeah.
And fucking it went for him and she freaked out and ran out of there and it
killed him. Oh fuck.
I never looked it up to see if that was true, but even if it isn't true,
I just want to yell at the fictitious person.
It's like you couldn't go get like a frying pan or something or a steak knife
and just give it a couple of fucking jabs.
You know, this is what I would do, Paul.
If a fucking Python grabbed you, I would wait till it, you like were out.
And the thing thought that it was having a meal.
And then by then it's all twisted up and
winded up and all you gotta do is you fucking stab it in the toe of the toe and the fitz tail
a couple of times so wait you'd wait for me to be dead the fuck well if i start moving in the
thing might come for me and then we're both fucked you i wouldn't wait till you were dead i would
wait till you start just you know the UFC like he's out
he's out
it is all over
that's when I would go
a ref runs in
and goes like this
I would come in
dude you know how it is
with something like snakes
if you ever look at those meerkats
you sort of lunge at them
and shit
and just try to
you gotta do a lot of head fakes
with the fucking snake before you go in there and get it but there paul like you would be laying there with your
jordans in the air untied so one of them would be off be like dude don't let don't let him eat me
dude i'm like i'm gonna help you paul just not yet bill i'm going out i'm going out it's all
right dude just fucking give into it then it can think you can eat you. And I'm coming in there with the fucking bat.
Yeah, but I think I just need it to be all the way around you.
So like, I don't hit you.
No, but I think when a snake actually fully constricts and takes all your breath away,
I don't think it's like you're passing out like UFC.
I think you're fucking have no more life in the lungs.
No, no, no.
You pass out first.
Okay.
You absolutely pass out. i read that book a perfect
storm they explain what happened when you drown like how long your brain and your heart still go
that's why when people say like uh you know when you stopped breathing people always said dude i
died and then i came back as this one doctor said he said nothing has ever died and come back to life.
What you're explaining is you had a near-death experience.
Right.
You were like consciously lifeless, but your body was still breathing.
The second you stop breathing, your heart doesn't stop.
Right.
That's not how it works.
Like shit gradually shut.
I think that gradually the shit is shutting down.
There's layers to it
yeah don't know what happened dude is when you fucking suffocate one of those people in the cage
they would immediately be dead no does it not yeah don't the navy seals do that shit we're
anticipating all the emails about how wrong i was about all of that shit but i know like when they
were talking about drowning they took they was a whole fucking chapter. It was the most terrifying thing.
Two things happen when you drown.
Either it's water in your lungs
or there's a reflex in your throat
that immediately just cuts it off
and you actually suffocate.
They'll find like no water in your lungs.
But after you stop breathing,
then there's like the dopamine.
So you have that stupid smile on your face
when they find you.
It's kind of, you're going on a nice little trip and then after then when you're just completely out
with that dumb smile on your face your brain is still firing synapses and whatever the synapses
are still fire i said firing synapses i don't know what any of this stuff means it's still
firing for like another 20 minutes that's why those fucking kids you know they play hockey
in the omen and then they go under the ice kids, you know, they play hockey in the Omen
and then they go under the ice and they're able to get them out in the real life.

Okay.
Yeah, my brother had a Navy SEAL come up to him,
and this Navy SEAL was talking to my brother,
and he talked about when they keep making them tread water
until they actually physically can't,
and they just keep treading water until they can't,
and then they eventually, like, they'll pass out,
and then they fucking, like, revive them and shit,
and it's just, it's insane what those guys go through, dude.
Yeah, but you don't need to keep, do you just the dead man's float i learned i learned that in swimming you just float face down
then occasionally you pick your fucking head up yeah you keep doing aerobics yeah no i think
i think they rush water in a tank that you just can't get out of i don't think you could start doing fucking like
dead man floats in the navy seal training which would be how insecure you have to be to join
special forces like what are you trying to prove yeah i'm just fucking with you dude i just want
to piss people off no they're probably but you got to fuck out of the country. No, no, they're probably.
I'm patriotic.
I have an American flag and I give the troops a standing ovation at a sporting event.
Other than that, I'm just living my life.
No, but there is a guy like that.
I'm sure there's a guy who's like, fuck it.
I'm not just going to the military.
I'm doing that for his own thing.
But then there's some bad motherfuckers.
They weed those guys out.
There's some.
And the number of guys that quit. I actually think that quit force guys are like they like have to do that
it's the only thing that can contain their intensity can you imagine like if like you
were meant to be an army ranger and you actually like managed a home depot and those fucking people
showing up just half-assing it every day sleeping on a whole pile of fucking paper towels.
And you're wired to save a country.
I mean, they have to go do it, Paul.
Yeah, it's kind of a UFC fighter.
Have you ever seen those training fucking videos?
I saw one, I think it was for the Army Rangers, Paul.
You got to pick up like a telephone pole
with like 10 other guys. And then then you hold it and then his guys quit
there's the people who try out for that shit is so tough if you quit holding up a telephone pole
in the sun you're a pussy and they have like this big like and like if somebody taps out now there's
nine of you holding it up paul. You still have to hold it up.
And then they get so fucking weary, they puke in the pit,
and you got to take your puke outside the pit.
And then some guy, what is your puke doing inside of my pit, private?
You got to fucking.
I would like.
All they would have to do is just tell me the intro.
I got to do what? Yeah, I don't want to do is just tell me the intro. I got to do what?
Yeah, I don't want to do that.
I'll be a junior ranger.
I'll just bring the rangers their stuff before they go into the octagon.
No, that's another level, man.
I had this soldier come up in San Antonio.
He had burns on his face and shrapnel scars.
I was talking about this in my act one time too. He came up to me and he's thanks for coming, man.
And I said, no, dude, you know, thank, thank you so much for your service and everything.
And I was just like looking at the toughness of this guy. And he goes, uh, he goes, yeah, man.
And he just goes, you know, I said, I'm able to do this because of what you do, you know? And he
goes, yeah, well, you know, I'm just ready to die for america and then i said i was like he's like i'm ready to die at an instant
for you you know you go people are ready i'm just thinking like that's not me man like fuck that
dude i'm not i i can't i'm a liability out there dude i'm the last fucking dude you want out there
but then but no but then if i went out but i'm just saying like
again now i mean if i went out there gung-ho i would fucking be about it but no i'm just saying
what do you really have an option when you get out there
once you get out there i mean you gotta play the game or else you're dead
yeah i'm not saying you wouldn't be crying like
yeah just shooting anything that moved but you would
try see that's the other thing friendly fire dude that's fucked up man rest his soul that guy pat
tillman who left the nfl after 9 11 to do it like the friendly fire thing is what's really
is fucking sad man and it's, and what can you do?
Brutal.
Yeah.
It's a, yeah.
I'm glad I never had to do, you know,
I did poor enough in high school to a fucking, you know,
if I didn't do comedy, I mean,
I probably would have thought about going in there.
I would not have been a good soldier.
I don't like people telling me what to do.
I really don't.
Yeah, but you'd be the type of guy that would let you, knowing you, you would hate it at
the beginning and then you'd fucking, you'd be the guy giving orders.
You'd be a fucking general.
You would just, you would be like, fuck that guy.
No, I was a lot, I was a lot different person when I was back then.
I just wanted to be left alone.
And I would hate the drill sergeant within the first fucking two days.
Cause he would have reminded me of my dad.
And then that they would have gone for, I would have become a problem.
And then I wouldn't be tough.
So then he'd kick my ass in front of the whole platoon.
And then there'd be some sort of one of those fucking,
what do they call it?
A blanket party.
It wouldn't have been good.
You'd be private pile and fucking.
I don't think comedians, people who should be comedians,
generally speaking, are cut out for the military.
Generally speaking, there are some.
I agree with that.
I agree with that.
Generally speaking, that's not our speed, dude.
Like, generally speaking, we go out at night in the middle of the night tell jokes and sit around and
talk and make fun of people's clothes and yeah and then they beat the fuck out of you and then
it's just like this is fun i would just be weighing so so like wait a minute so like if uh
my leave if i don't come back the worst thing that happens is you stick me in jail and a dishonorable discharge.
Oh, you don't approve of me, dude.
I would I would be going for one of those fucking things.
Well, here's the thing.
You know, my mind, I would not be able to not laugh, dude.
I laugh.
I let my sense of humor and the way my mind goes.
Like we were talking about many times, church funeral,
that's the comedic mind. So, and they said that that guy, he passed away,
rest his soul.
But the guy who was a drill sergeant in full metal jacket was a real drill
sergeant. And they said that some of those guys say the most,
I talked to soldiers. So they, the most hilarious things ever.
Like they just come out and they just say the funny, you, your mother,
fuck the thing like that
i would burst out laughing get the shit kicked out of me and everybody in the platoon would hate me
because i'd be the reason they were running pile wipe that smile off your face private versi
how tall are you remember that that was my favorite one how tall are you
five eight sir i didn't know they stacked shit that high i would just be like
i would be dude somebody's gotta spoof that you gotta make a movie just about how fucking
over the top funny the guy is um well i think movies ruin it so now you're like anticipating
it i imagine it must have been amazing when you first met a drill sergeant,
you know, back in the day before every fucking movie gave him all those
one-liners and shit or whatever.
I like how like drill sergeants have like stock jokes.
Yeah.
There's only queers and stairs coming.
I don't see any horns.
Where'd you learn how to whisper private in a helicopter factory just starts doing like stand
up you know hey private i don't come to mcdonald's and knock the french fries out of your fucking
hand do i oh shit i don't down to the whorehouse and slap the
dicks out of your mouth. Do I, poet?
And there's no way
they're coming up with it on the spot.
You know they're writing shit when they go
back to the barracks.
Alright, who do I got here? He's fucking
That's the sketch. He does
hacky 80 stuff.
I didn't know they could stack
shit that high. This guy can back me up.
Am I right?
Am I right?
I know what you guys are thinking.
This is the type of guy, what did he say?
This guy will fuck you in the ass and not even have the decency to give you a reach around.
It's like, what?
I know, yeah, it got super gay.
I would be crying, dude dude i would be crying laughing there's no
way i would just be able to sit at attention while that guy just starts fucking calling
you drill sergeant said that not even have to dc to even reach around and be like
how did you know that about me
i mean how do you resist it he's just lobbing it over the net.
I'm so competitive. Yes, I would. You don't even know that.
Oh shit. Oh, how do you stack shit? I mean,
just take it literal. Yeah. I mean,
I guess if they're constipated or maybe like cow, cow chips or something,
like human shit yeah dude
i heard boot camp was so hard i i knew a guy that i went to high school with he said like because
a couple people kill themselves or whatever but he said some sometimes you would literally
contemplate swimming across the like you would like guys would it was that nut like the the
freedom in your mind to just get in the water and swim
away from that i couldn't handle high school paul there's no fucking way i could give myself in
i remember sitting in high school that's reminding me high school we had this building building a in
my high school it was like fucking you guys i just did these big old-fashioned windows and
in the summertime they'd have the windows open because there wasn't any ac or whatever right
i just remember just looking at it going like what would the teacher do
if i just jumped it because on the first floor just jumped out that window
or i see the cars driving by just wishing i was in one of those cars
yeah just driving by one of my favorite jobs i ever had i washed windows people's houses and my
favorite part of the day was when we were driving from
one job to another and i remember just thinking it's the middle of the day and i'm not in an
office and i'm driving down the street with my arm out the fucking window it was a great only
that sucked about that job is the end of your fingers would be numb by the end of the day from

I'm not gonna lie to you. Kid's got a vibe. Yeah.
Kid gets got a vibe. Ladies are, uh, ladies are going to be liking them.

He loves the phone. Can I have the phone back? He just looks, he's like,
and then you go to reach for it. And he just kind of, he just looks and he's like and then you go to reach for it and he just kind of
he just like runs away
I love when a little
kid knows what they want and that's it

There are certain breeds of dog that just want to play.
My buddy's got a retriever, and all she wants to do,

Cats are fucking.
I don't want to do 80s comedy here, but they're fucking annoying.
Every once in a while, there's nothing better than a cool cat.
But a cat is just like, you know, there's no loyalty with a cat.
Dude, I was hugging my cat yesterday, arm under, he's had his thing and his arm hanging.
But yeah, maybe not loyalty, but he loves me, dude.
Touches my face, tries to get my attention.
But I took care of the cat.

That's got to be the dumbest scam. Really, Paul?
And then what? Are they going to name a star after
you? Remember that? Remember you could buy
a star? That's the
Paul Verzi star.
It says it right here in my certificate.
I own an elephant
in Africa.
What is wrong with you?
Where's your Sicilian blood?
No, man, they're going endangered.
They're going endangered, and they're beautiful.
I know.
And they wait for people like you to show up.
I love elephants, but I can't get anywhere near to see if they actually exist.
No, they're going to send me a picture.
Yeah.
And a stuffed animal.
Oh, Paulie.
I would love to.
I would love to fucking get an elephant, man.
If I could afford it, I would have an elephant too.
Just be like, dude, stop standing on one foot.
Those days are over.
You're not in the circus anymore.
Okay. Put down the beach ball. You're not in the circus anymore.
Okay. Put down the beach ball.
You're an elephant again.
I'm going to get you another five.
Wait,
you're broad.
You guys can go roll around in the mud.
There's no alligators,
no lions.
This is it.
You made it.
Dude.
If you stare at an elephant long enough,
I have panic attacks.
That's how fucking weird they are.
Dude.
That thing.
If I stare at an elephant for a long time,
it freaks me out.
It's one of the freakiest creatures on planet Earth, dude.
Well, it's because it's smarter than you, Paul,
and it breaks you down and you see it.
What?
Elephants are smarter than people.
Is that true?
Yeah, they just don't have hands.
No, dude, I think they got a great memory.
I don't know if they're smarter.
I know they're good parents. So don't know if they, I don't know if they're smarter.
You know, I know they're good parents.
So many animals if they just had hands.
An elephant is one of those fucking animals.
An elephant's creepy looking, man.
By the way, is a rhinoceros the last dinosaur?
No, an alligator.
What?
An alligator. Dude, a rhinoceros looks like a dinosaur dude with that horn it looks like a pig with with the like armor on andrew pull up a rhino dude

that's the closest to a dinosaur andrew go to this one right the one with the horn
won't yeah no hoof i mean look at that He looks sad. I want to rub his head.
Why is that?
It's going to be okay.
Why is an alligator closer to a dinosaur than this fucking thing?
Why do people fly from another part of the world to shoot that thing in the fucking head?
Because the horn is worth money and people are greedy pieces of shit.
Yeah, and as a part of the world, they think if you eat part of the horn, it makes you dick harder.
Closest animal to a dinosaur, and they're saying that it's a...
Oh, birds.

I was hanging out with you that I am trying to work towards.
We were hanging out at Bartnick's.
You were out here promoting something.
And we went out there and we got some burgers and we were going to smoke a stick in the afternoon.

And I just remember thinking like, that's fucking unbelievable. I want to have a day like that.
And then you did. I know, but I haven't had one since I got to have a day where there's nothing.
Don't buy anything. I want nothing, dude. Yes. There's a day where you just have a cream soda in your hand and you look at the sky and you go, I'm doing dick today.

Paul actually has the intelligence to sit by himself,
eating a sandwich and enjoy watching the breeze move the leaves.
Paul just naturally knows that.
From day one, he was sleeping 12 hours.
This man just understands life.
This is how we became friends, Andrew.
Yeah.
Because I knew I needed to be more like him.
Well, me and you are so different that that's why any good relationship,
the people aren't exactly the same. And when are exactly the same it starts out as this is fucking great and then it just what happens you can't help
each other it's it's because you guys are you all you both know the exact same shit you're two yins
or two yangs yeah and then when the bad shit happens it's still i don't know how to do that
i don't have to fix that either and the whole thing just implodes i had a relationship like that with a
woman one time we were the exact same fucking person yeah exact same fucking person and we
got along great and then it just we just got to the edge of what we knew and it was an abyss and
