all right now we're live what is this picture of me that's funny earth to nathan can you hear us
yeah i'm here man one is currently orbiting the moon he heard that there was a del taco in space
and he rolled down his window to order at the drive-thru and was sucked into oblivion
now earth has two moons one our vanguard that's been there since the beginning of time
another one nude covered in hair angry that he has no del taco
i've thought about this there's a lot of's a lot of trips I take to and from
Denver. Well, I guess from Denver to Trinidad, I usually gas up by the mall in Lone Tree.
And there's a Del Taco by that 7-Eleven. So I often get Del Taco, I gas up, and I eat
the Del Taco as I drive down I-25. You gas up again after that Del Taco, I gas up, and I eat the Del Taco as I drive down I-25.
You gas up again after that Del Taco gets in your tank.
I'm going fast.
I'm distracted.
Out of all the things that could kill me in the next 10 years,
that is probably the highest odds.
If you were a betting man, and you are,
you're crippling your future
because of your gambling addiction
I would put a thousand bucks on me
dying with Del Taco
on my t-shirt
in a ditch
I can't wait for
Twitter to get a hold of me
if it's not you putting hot sauce
on your Del Taco
and driving I don't get the hot sauce on your Del Taco and driving it.
I don't get the hot sauce because that's like one way I can try to beat the devil.
Well, yeah, you can also pull over and put your hot sauce on before you start driving.
My dad would go to Taco Bell and he would hand the bag back.
And it was my job to put individual squirts of hot sauce on
each bite of his tacos and then i was allowed to eat my tacos once the job was finished
that's wild
so you're just constantly passing back and forth hot sauce bite hot sauce bite
yeah and i'm like handling every bite of it with my child fingers,
which have never been washed.
I was like, what?
Also, Sophie, so I would make Sophie do the same thing to me.
So before Sophie could eat, you had to apply hot sauce to my burrito bites.
And then I had strep throat.
Even though you weren't driving.
Well, no, but I'm the fucking navigator
you know
Jesus Christ
you have to respect the rank order
there's a chain of command
in the car and I'm the sergeant arm
and Sophie's little bugle boy
but then I would just constantly get strep throat
and I realized it's because
Sophie would eat her boogers and then
fucking hand me bites I had strep throat so much in fifth grade i went to school like 60 days
out of the entire year yeah i got that a lot too yeah you had strep throat because you're disgusting
and you were smoking and you were eight years old yeah my sign all for my body yeah all the foil
would get inside of your brain becker found a Foley in front of his hotel, and he's stoked.
Found two.
Yikes.
Yeah, he found them.
Where is that hotel?
Is that on the Fremont Street Experience?
No.
It's like right at the edge where Fremont turns into a very rough ghetto.
Yeah, Becker's staying where Tupac got shot.
He's right on top of it.
They arrested that guy.
They just found the guy.
Yeah, I know.
It was Carlos and Britt.
He also talked about it in a book
that came out in 2019.
So it's pretty, you know,
the LVPD is getting blasted
for their lack of attention to anything.
I don't know.
They're busy telling homeless people to move it along
because the blue hairs
want to play Keno.
He's friends with a police chief or something, right?
He has some weird in
with the police that fucks the whole thing up.
What's that? Your toaster?
No, that was
Carlos and Becker can't go more than
three minutes without being like,
I love you, I miss you. They're very codependent down here.
A lot of holding.
Yeah, these two bumping around Skank Fest.
Dude, you have to do Skank Fest next year.
Bro, Becker is getting recognized.
People are asking for pictures with Becker.
Yeah.
Banana.
That's cool.
You would be a huge deal here.
Do they do live
podcasts at all?
They do, yeah.
They're begging us. They're like, when do you want to do a live
Chubby B? Finally.
You guys can say it, and we can get girls to dump them,
and there's no pasties.
Yeah.
We could have a dump them out and we're in competition.
They'd love it.
We could do an official say it, don't spray it.
It's the coolest group of comedy fans I've ever...
Everybody's rabidly excited for comedy and rules so
hard, man. Yeah, man.
Everybody has Asperger's and or
autism and is
fixated on
Sam Talent's every move.
I'm sure it's a blast.
I'm having a great time, but as Becker can attest,
it's been difficult to walk
around. This might be the summer of Sam.
I'm going to get a.44 caliber gun and I'm going to go bust up kids making out and send them to
hell to hang out with my grandfather, who's also a dog.
You're getting mobbed, huh?
Well, I mean, I don't want to say I'm getting mobbed, but yes.
It takes quite a bit of extra time to walk from the door to the exit.
And not because I'm a big, fat turd, listeners, all right?
It's not because I have my rascal scooter and I forgot to charge it.
Let me get ahead of this one before the allegations come out.
Yeah, they just...
What?
They just love him, but it's everybody.
Everybody just loves everybody.
It's awesome.
People in line making lifelong friendships.
It's really adorable. It's awesome. People in line making lifelong friendships.
It's really adorable.
It's the age of Aquarius.
What shows have you done?
I did one last night at 10, which went really well, just stand-up.
Then I did Colm Tyrell's Midnight Circus,
which opened up with a flair-juggling bartender with huge ones.
Yeah, dude, she was, she had them.
I'm surprised she could reach her hand that high over her head.
Those weren't the only cups she was catching, if you know what I mean.
Her giant bra was working overtime.
We can be nasty because we're in Vegas.
And then it was like a bunch of weird everyone there was on drugs and it started at midnight
and people gave glow sticks out to the crowd
and it was packed bro
it was so packed and people were just whipping
glow sticks at Tommy Pope's head
and then I went out and told
scary stories which was a lot of fun
which was just me like you know
doing crowd work but in this tone
and saying imagine
a lot and then sean we were like we got to put up sean gardini because he's tripping face on lsd
and he has no idea he's going on so me and column and little sass threw sean on stage and he just
went out there and was like i don't want to be here this is terrible and like people were laughing
initially and then he just like turned around and started looking at the people seated behind him and was like, oh.
So me and Colm, I grabbed the second mic and was like, Sean, quit bombing.
Sean, you're doing terrible from backstage.
Which just spiraled him even more.
And I did this running commentary on, like, how fucked up he was.
And that might have been the highlight of the evening it was so good yeah for Sean he's 24 what's he know oh wow I don't know he's 24 yeah I can't imagine
having to do not even knowing you're going to do comedy on lsd but being on lsd and then being surprised with
a set oh yeah that must have been awful yeah and then me being like sean why don't you try a joke
him being like i can't and i was like okay just keep having a panic attack
and then everyone's laughing at everything i say, and he's just floundering.
Good old-fashioned. You buried him while he was speaking.
He pulled together an ace move at the end, because then when he left the stage,
he jumped on the god mic and yelled at Sam about how stressed out and bad it was.
Yeah.
And it was.
He was like, you made a fool of me.
I've been made a laughingstock
yet again.
He took the power back.
He did, yeah.
It's just fun down here, man.
It rules. People are asking, where's Lund?
Why isn't Lund here?
I didn't turn down an invite
for the festival, so I don't know what you want me to do.
Do I have to apply?
I'm not mad at you.
Do I have to submit?
No, I'll get you.
And I figured you wouldn't want to do it.
Eh, might as well.
Yeah.
Pin me, pay me.
I guess Steve Ran is Easy has a similar joke to yours.
Yeah, it ended a joke that was very similar to the 69 bit you have.
Yeah, I got sick of that anyway.
Yeah, but it just made me happy watching a comic I've liked for a long time
try to do a bit and then being like, Nathan did this way better.
That came out of hosting Bingo.
Yeah, right. better that was that came out of hosting bingo yeah there was there was only so much you could do with numbers 69 everybody giggles and then yeah i started i don't know if 66 and 61 were both uh
yeah just ways to do other sex moves uh while calling bingo at Squeaky Bean.
Yeah, hitting them with that lewd material
at 1.30 in the afternoon
as they're eating their brisket nachos.
That was like life-changing money back in the day.
I would fly in early on Sundays
to get that $300 from doing bingo.
Fuck yeah.
It was massive, bro.
Yeah, and I got free Milk Market gift cards.
Nice.
And it was Saturday, Sunday
for a while.
Yeah, I mean, they didn't need to have Saturday.
It was a bit ambitious,
as we say.
That's our boy Johnny.
Ambitious Johnny,
they call him.
Yeah, he's fine. He sends me a bunch of awful memes
of a lady getting tip-fucked and being like,
I miss you.
You're getting horrific memes.
Maynard
says hello and suck my dick.
God, every time I talk to
him. You know about my personal friend Maynard?
He's like, yeah, dude, that was the first thing you
said when you hired me for this job. Hello, I'm Johnny. I own the Squeaky Bean. I'm personal friend Maynard? He's like, yeah, dude, that was the first thing you said when you hired me for this job.
Hello, I'm Johnny. I own the Squeaky Bean. I'm friends with Maynard.
Okay.
Hey.
Moving along. Do you want to know who my
friends are?
I'm friends with Lund.
He's like, oh, is Lund singing for Tool?
My friend Maynard sings for Tool, which is a band.
You might have heard of them.
Maynard's their guy.
Stanhope's here. I guess he tripped mushrooms all day last night uh and now he can't get out of bed yeah he like literally
he's like he hit me up and was like hey wake up and do this zoom thing where we pick tomorrow's
games and i was asleep and then i woke up there was another text when I woke up a half hour later being like, never mind.
My tongue's too big.
Yeah, I saw that he was
there.
Did you watch it?
They showed the Road Dogg movie yesterday.
They did a Q&A with the director
afterward. I guess people were being
like, hi, I just want to say
this is Sam Talent's book right
and I guess Stan Hope's all fucked up
it's really hard and he's like let the director answer that
and the director was like
Doug showed me Sam Talent's
book in the middle of the process
for this movie and I refused
to read it because I didn't want it to influence
my already finished screenplay
and Doug was like, that's what happened.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
Oh, dude.
Someone was wearing a Sam Talent shirt.
And Doug and Bingo ran into him.
And the guy was like, hey, big fan.
And Bingo said, whoa, Sam Talent.
And Doug went, what are you talking about you drunk
bitch that's not sam talent she went no he was like oh crap score one for bingo
last night me and soda were just like hanging out and uh we got fucking bombarded by people from colorado they're like oh colorado
legends and there was this little guy who just kept like trying to touch soda's face
soda had to like karate it away yeah and he's like just let me touch your big head and soda's
like what the fuck's the matter with you so this kid kept like trying to climb Soder while Soder waxed off this kid's hands and I was so delighted.
Oh my god.
Yeah, people kept coming up
with bonfire tattoos and being like,
look Dan. I was like, yeah, remember when he
ran away from that show because he was tired
of it?
I was being mad.
So anyway, while we're sitting there,
it's surrounded by people and they're like colorado legends guess who walks
in right behind us the ultimate coach prime yeah it was deon sanders he's like i take a helicopter
out of here to get to my jet ski to get to oh yeah was it peach no dude it was fucking roseanne

were like that's the ultimate Colorado legend.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So she didn't care to speak to us, but still.
Hmm.
What have you eaten?
What have we eaten, Becker?
Oh, I have the best chicken fingers I've ever had in my life.
This is the dumbass shit I have to keep up with when he's on the road.
Him stopping me as i'm
like signing the lease on ron white's apartment so he can be like we have the best chicken fingers
ever it's like that's baby food you ate baby food it was good it was baby food it was amazing
carlos and i just like we're trying to find a quick bite to eat and it was truly the best chicken
french chicken tenders i've ever had so So, yeah. Where? Culinary Explorer out here. Something
Magoo's. Huey Magoo's.
Hmm. Yeah, you know
that nice restaurant, Huey Magoo's?
If you can, you should try to get a sandwich at the
Happy Hoagie. My buddy Eric
is running it.
But that's the other end of the strip.
Yeah, we're on
Fremont, dog. There's no Hoagies over here. It's the other end of the strip. Yeah, we're on Fremont, dog. There's no hoagies over here.
It's the other end of the strip, but I don't know.
Is it all pretty centralized to that end of town?
Yeah, dude.
The complex is just...
Do you know where Dick's Lab Resort is?
Yeah, is it in New York, New York?
No, no, we're on Fremont Street.
Huh.
That's where the whole thing is.
It used to be in, I think, New York, New York.
So maybe it moved, must have moved.
You know where the Nerd is?
That, like, arcade bar?
Yeah, right across the street from the heart attack grill
okay yeah well yeah i know where fremont street experience is yeah yeah so that's all right there
street experience that's where everything is and then i'm at the circuit and then the serfs and the
peasants in the middles are all at the nugget. Yeah. And then me and Carlos are at a hotel six a mile
down the road. Yeah, these dipshits
couldn't be further from the action.
The rules.
Unless the action is random gun violence.
That's what he's looking for. Yeah, a lot of
sex workers
hanging out in our parking lot.
Yeah, sure.
Like you're back in Shibuya.
Next year you can come down here man
and wear out some eggs but the eggs are people
you know what I'm saying
yeah I understand
I will not be banging any egg people
but
if we could do a live chubby bee that'd be cool
yeah I think next year
it would make sense.
Because there's a bunch of people here who are into the pod, which is insane.
Thank you to everyone who came up and said,
Hey, don't fire Becker, fire Sam.
Okay.
There's a London Becker operation now.
There's a couple of presents for Sam, and I'm excited to see Sam get these gifts later today.
Yeah, Becker knows the presents already, but he won't tell me what they are?
No, I need to see it on his face.
It's going to be beautiful.
We also had sandwiches at a 24-hour deli last night that were incredible.
Yeah.
Oh, hell yeah.
Yeah, a turkey sandwich at 2 a.m.
Nothing like it.
It puts it all together.
What do you got tonight?
I have two shows at four and then I'm done.
It's going to be blackjack until I have to cut my fucking debit card in half
and give one half to Carlos and one half to Becker.
Did you bet on the CU game?
No, no, dude.
I have no faith in CU either way.
CU game? No, no, dude. I have no faith in CU either way. I mean, they probably got more than
eight, and they lost by six.
I also slept till 1230. Yeah.
I didn't know if you bet last night.
No, no. I am going to get my bets in today, though, because we have a
roped-off area at the Storka Sportsbook tomorrow,
where me, Josh Potter, Egan, and Doug are going to watch all the games.
Oh, cool. Is that going to be filmed for something?
No, I think it's just Potter is like a fucking legendary gambler, and he set it up,
because last year we were just in there, and we couldn't sit in this.
Anyway, it's a big boring story.
But yeah, Potter set it up and we're fucking
golden, baby.
That sounds very fun.
Becker has a new ranking of comedy
powerhouses.
Fucking Louis C.K.
and Norm have been removed for
Annie Letterman. He's a big Letterman guy.
Oh, because she had a good set.
She did have a good set last year.. He told me about this set three times.
yeah twice three times okay you were blackout last night too many sigs.
oh you had four beers. I did have four beers. did she come I can't think of whether she came down and did a chief or not.
That would be impossible. Probably not, right?
I'm thinking of Alice Wetterland.
Yeah, a lot of people next to her.
I just don't know either of them well, so I was confused.
I wasn't being nasty.
I'm telling you the truth.
Also, if you look at Becker's saved tabs on his laptop,
the first one is WTF with Marc Maron.
The second one is Nerdist.com.
Yeah.
What the fuck, Becker?
Nerdist is great.
How long have you had this laptop?
Since 2006?
No, but I've had the same Google account since 2005.
You are a problem.
I need to update your...
He's got the something awful
forums. Yeah.
He's got the bodybuilding forums.
Nerdist I checked every day for work
for years. I was ordering comic books and
had to be on top of what was happening and new and
cool. Oh, so this is a write-off? You're not just a
dickhead?
Yeah, Nerdist
and CBR are my go-to every morning.
I still have it.
I check them every morning.
You need to expand your horizons, Becker.
You've got to move out of that little horse town.
Move to Vegas.
Become a problem gambler.
Yeah, I can see that happening.
I'm trying to learn how to gamble today, Lund.
For tomorrow?
Just football?
Knowing nothing?
Blackjack.
We just saw Egan go full tilt and lose his whole stack in two hands.
That was brutal.
Yeah, it was.
Oh, because you guys were trying to get him to go to lunch or something?
No, we were playing blackjack waiting for Becker to come over to the hotel.
New dealer. Egan steamed off off a hand and he puts in his
whole stack and he wins on that and then he's like let it ride and i was like all right let it ride
so he lets it ride and i'm talking like probably like 500 bucks stacked up and he gets two queens and he's like yes all right and then the dealer has a 10 up
and then goes to peek at her whole card and just goes oh no flips it over
if you have the dealer has the ace up at least there's the
moment of trepidation of like no it can't be it can't be and then she takes a peek and flips it
over but no this was just a secret 21 which is that's fucking drowning your baby in the bathtub
no no insurance available when it's the the queen up yeah dude that was fun to watch i'm like becker
it's a fun game of skill don't worry and then you could just get the hose down by every fucking fire
department in vegas you did three tiny laps real the the worst i would say if you can it's less
stressful if you can play with people you know.
Because strangers will fucking be so brutal if you do anything out of line.
If you hit one time too many, if you hit and get a 10 that was going to make the dealer bust, they'll be pissed.
So it'd be better if you can find a table or an area that's dead so it's just a couple of you, and you can play a little slower.
Talk about it.
You can talk no matter what.
I wanted to learn on a $5 table, and those don't exist anymore.
Remonstrate.
Bro, this was fucked.
Yesterday, me, Toby McMullen, and Gardini are playing Blackjack at El Cortez,
and I noticed that you can see the dealer's hole cards.
When she goes to deal, she flips it out of the machine so the card's up,
so we can see what she has.
We know her down card.
And I like –
She has them.
Sorry, housekeeping's here.
Becker's going to go.
All right. What happened there, Becker? It was housekeeping. go. Alright.
What happened there, Becker?
It was housekeeping.
And you said, we're good, and she went... She said, wonderful.
So yeah, we can see her whole card, and I tell
Toby, and he's like, oh, I've been on it for a while.
We still lose. We still, we can't figure out
how to fucking capitalize on perfect information.
Because if you know she has 18 and you have a 17 you're
like all of a sudden hitting on 17s after standing on 16s like it was i did we just kept fucking
losing we're hitting on 17s against 19s it was so infuriating bro and she didn't she didn't figure
it out did any did a pit boss come along and smack her yeah they got out the
bamboo cane and gave her the sandman treatment over the head i mean that is agreed that's dumb
as hell that's your whole job and she's blowing it i know and not only was she blowing it we were
also still getting bent over the barrel and having fucking Spurs put in our holes. It sucks so bad.
Wait,
uh,
I was going to ask earlier if there are,
if you can use betting apps in Nevada,
it seems like maybe they would have fought it,
but then bet MGM is via MGM.
Yeah,
you can use MGM and I think you can use the Caesar sports book app,
but you can't use FanDuel here.
Okay. So they were able to navigate that?
Yeah, so I just have to place all my bets
at the book and it's like, okay,
how am I going to get fucking
Ritter over rushing yards from the book?
You know how I like to scramble my little eggs
with a bunch of little prop bets
here and there?
Sure.
He took the over on the games to start on time.
What?
He bet that all the games would start on time.
Yeah.
He doesn't know about sports.
He said I couldn't bet on Gatorade unless it was the Super Bowl.
Yeah.
You've bet that, right, Sam?
I have in the past, yeah.
Foolish bet.
No skill involved in that.
I like when there's skill involved.
I like when I know that Sam LaForte is going to get over 45 yards
and hits on the first fucking pass of the game.
You guys look grainy.
I hope Riverside cleans you up.
They will.
We got full quality.
Yeah, we're good over here.
We're perfect.
You look good.
So Riverside FM is our new means of recording.
And if you have any questions, guys, about how to record a podcast
after doing it for three and a half years, please hit up Beckett
because he's really
making breakthroughs over here. He only has half
his face on camera, which is... Our whole face
is on camera. He's showing us a split screen.
Okay, don't be nasty.
Because you're backed into a corner
doesn't mean you have to pull your blades out,
Leonardo. Well, no, I just wanted you to know
we're in the forefront. Someone last night was like,
Whoa, it's Becker. He does look like a ninja turtle.
Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha.
Huh.
Uh,
what else?
We're going to go to rotten.com real quick.
Oh, God.
Becker has it saved.
Speaking of
Tupac, that rotten makes me think
of the autopsy
every time
I was like oh good the internet's gonna
change me little 14
year old pud
has to grow up quick
thanks to the internet
you were older than me online
so I was just like
downloading porno and you had already moved
past that and you were looking at the Kennedy assassination
from the other camera
there's no
moving past porn

I wasn't 16 being like
alright well I've had my fill
so that's good
now on to more adult fare
like crime scene photos.
Yeah, exactly.
Give me the Chris Farley.
I thought it does it for me.
You're like the strip club owner in Striptease
where you're like, I went to the zoo the other day
and a manatee gave me a boner.
That was you at 50.
Striptease really sucked.
It was always on. And I was oh wow yet again i can tell my mom

gonna be able to tell who i'm talking to two two pink two pink mouths i didn't hear striptease. It must have lagged for a sec.
Nom nom nom.
Nom nom nom.
Let me be your egg.
Use me. Use me like your little
soft-boiled friend.
This was fun.
Listen to this one.
Here we are.
Ready?
Sam Talent
flies early to go to Indianapolis
to do the White Rabbit Cabaret
as part of Let's Fest
great time
now David Borey
you already did that?
yeah I did it on Thursday
David Borey says my flight's delayed
I'm not going to be there in time
to see your set
I say okay so when I was in time to see your set. I say, okay.
So when I was in Austin with Bori and Egan, I mentioned that I had a croissant.
And they lambasted me, and they pinned me to the pillory,
and they pulled my pants down and turned it around
so everyone could grow tomatoes and carrots at my rump.
So I know, don't ever say croissant I'm gonna Bori again
unless I want to
hear about it
in his gravelly
railroad voice
for two and a half
hours
so I'm on stage
if Bori's not here
maybe I'll do the
croissant thing
so I'm on stage
and I say
yeah I was in Paris
I was eating
I was having
cappuccino
and croissant
what do I hear
in the back of the room
I fucking hear the back of the room?
I fucking hear the dump truck spill all the china.
It's Bori.
And he heard me say croissant because he got there early.
And then for the rest of my set, I'm just like, I'm doing well.
And then I realize I'm going to have to hear about the croissant.
I'm on stage in front of a packed room doing my thing while also in the back of my mind just thinking god damn as soon as I get off stage
I'm going to hear about the
croissant
and as soon as I get off stage who's in the green room
the bulbous beanbag man from Sierra Leone
himself and the first thing he said
croissant
that sucked that was brutal that's fun That sucked.
That was brutal.
Yeah, that's fun.
Do you have to say it like that for the joke,
or you just try to say it like you've been to Paris eight times,
because that's you?
No, that's how you say it.
That's how you pronounce croissant.
Croissant is not a thing over there.
A croissant is... Well, you're thing over there. A croissant is.
Well, you're not over there. You're over here.
I'm over everywhere, man.
I sell tickets from Memphis to
Madagascar.
I'm more over than
the fucking Legion of Doom.
I saw
I think you had an Instagram
post story where you
mentioned the croissant thing.
Yeah.
I didn't know what the deal was, but that's good.
Did he get you in Denver?
Or no, you said Austin.
Yeah, he got me in Austin.
I mean, he got both.
I just said in the green room.
Like, yeah, I was, you know, drinking cappuccinos and having croissant.
And they were like, oh, croissant!
And then they just fucking, oh, croissant and then they just fucking,
oh,
it was brutal.
Egan was still making fun of him
two days later
when I got there.
Egan said it today.
So that was,
that was difficult
and then,
since,
I feel like I'm the camel today
and I'll carry you both
across the finish line.
Okay.
I have to go to a wedding on Monday in Denver for Olivia, my sister's co-worker, as we call it.
And I think Olivia calls it friends, but Sophie says co-worker.
And Sophie's like, you need to dress up because all my co-workers think you're rich and famous,
and I don't want you to look like a fucking pud.
Okay, well, this is going to be fun.
Can't wait for this to be your show monkey as you fucking work the organ grinder,
and I clap and jiggle.
So Sophie's all ready, putting the fear of God in her.
So I don't have any of my clothes because they're all in storage.
So I'm like, okay, I'll fly.
As soon as I get to Vegas, I'll go to the destination XL.
So, I wake up in Indianapolis, hour and a half lower in Chicago, three and a half hour
flight to Las Vegas, go right to the goddamn DXL.
Emily's wearing a green dress, okay?
So, Emily and Sophie are like, get something that matches the green dress.
I'm like, I'm going to get something cool.
So I get
top to bottom
plum herringbone jacket.
Nice. Yeah. Awesome.
I look like the kingpin if he was black.
Fuck yeah. Yeah.
I look like a human slave, you know?
Yeah. Like I should have a really small
bowler hat and be smoking one of
those long cigars
that's chewed up
as I hit racing forms against my hands
fuck yeah that rules
I look like Minnesota Fats if they redid The Hustler
yeah it's crazy
I have a nice cool
fucking emerald shirt
and I hit up Emily and I'm like I went to DXL
I got the suit I'm gonna look good
and she's like okay what color is it
and I'm like it's a surprise and then I get the suit. I'm going to look good. She's like, okay, what color is it? I'm like, it's a surprise.
Then I get the phone call immediately
from Sophie and
three-way call. Hey,
so we just want to know what color the suit is.
I'm like, well, no,
I want it a surprise. Don't worry about it.
Yeah, don't worry. I look cool.
We're going to look great
together. I had two Latina women
outfit me. They're stoked. I showed them a picture of the dress
they say it's gonna match perfect
my shirt matches the dress my belt's gonna match the whole thing
and Emily's like
Jesus fucking Christ just tell us what color it is
and I'm like oh okay
what's going on
right now and Sophie's like
just do what she says you never do what we say
and I was like I just spent $700
on a fucking suit so I could impress your dumbass friends, Sophie,
who were all nodding off on Kratom and checking their phones every six seconds.
Emily's like, you're changing the topic.
I'm like, no, just let me have this.
Let me fucking surprise you guys with a suit.
And Emily's like, no, you tell us right now.
I would have hung up on both of them.
God damn.
I'm in the back of our Uber
with a suit in my lap
figuring out where I can go donate blood
to pay this thing off because I put it on installment plan.
So I just yell in the back,
it's plum herringbone.
And they both go, oh my god, you fucked it.
Fuck them. They're wrong. plum herringbone. And they both go, oh my god, you fucked it. Really?
Fuck them.
They're wrong.
I can't fucking win, dude.
Who's the worst?
Well, now you get to be right, though.
Now you get to show up looking amazing
and them happy.
I'm not going.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm going to have my own wedding.
You and an egg?
Yeah,
I'm going to marry a whole 12.
Best thing about an
egg is even though
it's got a mouth,
it can't talk.
It's got a hole,
but not a mouth.
Well, it's good.
It's kind of like
it's a cualaca?
Qualaca?
What is it?
Calaca.
Cloaca.
Cloaca.
Am I saying that
right?
Oaxaca.
Oaxaca oaxaca mexico that's where they're from uh well yeah what a stupid thing to you have to look really good
for my fucking friend of two years wedding or else everything's fucked it's like you're not
officiating you're not the best man you're not officiating, you're not the best man. You're a friend of a friend. You're tangential
to this whole thing.
I'm going to a wedding today. I'm excited.
Very low stakes.
What are you going to wear?
Pants and a shirt.
Damn.
Probably seven strong. Maybe that pink one
with the bow tie.
No jacket.
Have not decided yet.
I don't know if I have a good belt, so I might have to
go untucked, which
is not really ideal.
It's a Trinidad wedding, right?
Yeah.
The bride's going to be shoeless.
The groom's going to be holding a banjo.
Yeah.
Billy Strings is playing.
These are good, fine folks
from Philadelphia.
There'll be a tuxedo t-shirt with the
sleeves ripped off, an Eagles jersey or two.
Instead of throwing rice, they throw
batteries at Santa.
Eric Lindros
kit, for sure.
On the dog slash ring bearer.
That'll be fun.
They're gonna root for Randall Cunningham in public
but then on the drive home, say some
real bad stuff.
No, I'm excited.
I like them both very much, Ruth and Dan.
Dan listens
to the pod.
Dan, congrats.
Yeah, it'll be
a good time. Yeah, I like them both a lot.
May Ruth have them forever.
And you get to hold them.
To have them and to hold them.
You're going to go bow tie?
Maybe.
It's the bow tie that I got
from Kristen for her and Wes's
wedding, and I wore it when I got married
so I might
bust it out
but I haven't decided yet
I would
totally wear the bow tie
you look cool in it
yeah I bet you look good
in your fucking grimace suit you bitch
how about that
you definitely should wear fucking purple to a wedding good in your fucking Grimace suit, you bitch. How about that?
You definitely should wear fucking purple to a wedding
that isn't about you. That's a good call.
I feel like there's a little prank here.
How about
get it out of the closet?
Let's see it.
Dump it out of the closet yeah let's see it dump it out man they wanted to get rid of the only 5x suit that they had left from from 2016 gorgeous I can't see the herringbone.
Yeah, it's hard to see the color.
It looks black.
Yeah, it's a nice dark purple.
It's not insane.
I look black in it, too.
Man.
That sucks
That suit rules
I'd wear it
Yeah but Becker you also think
The chicken tenders you had were transcendent
So your taste is really
Carlos agrees that they were transcendent chicken tenders
Carlos is used to eating adobe
Fair enough
Yeah Carlos does no shit
Carlos eats what he finds in the woods
Working for BLM
He's a forager
Are those black walls or no?
On the hotel?
Very dark wood
Curtains? Oh, okay
Yeah, it's a nice spot
They got him a good room here yeah man and i was worried
that i was putting like the fucking reserve tank for people they forgot were on the festival but
i guess the circus the good one and everyone all the you know people other people are at the nugget
you know what i mean but yeah i got like they were like hey uh do you want an upgrade they said
what kind of room do you want smoking or not and i was like i don't care i could take either and
they were like well if you can take a smoking room off of our hands we can give you a free upgrade
and overlooks the pool and now i'm overlooking the circuit pool that has like a fucking bigger
than a billboard worth of television showing all the football games
and babes down there letting them bounce and be buoyant so i really came up on this one
and now becker can blast giant cigarettes while we do the podcast yes it's lovely
is it uh hot there is it mild it's. It's overcast and kind of breezy.
It's really nice today.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was a sweaty mess after walking to the festival on Friday.
It was rough.
Oh, he was gross.
I walked up on him and it looked like someone confused his head for an egg
and then called over all of their friends to also use the egg.
It's true.
I had dried salt on my temples.
Wait, did you get a haircut today?
No.
What happened?
What do you mean?
I thought you were frizzle-frazzle yesterday.
It'll be frizzle-frazzle in a little while.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
You looked like Ari Shaffir last night.
Yeah, it's coming.
This is nuts.
Yeah, it'll fuzz up.
It'll slowly get
more moisture and start to curl.
What the fuck?
Yeah.
Oh, you know
what I was going to mention is
the
Spaghetti and Westerns Festival
is in a couple weeks in Trinidad.
Thank God.
It's been radio silence from
Wally Wallace, and I'm a little nervous that he
has found podcast episodes where we've discussed him and his stupid brain i don't know if i don't
know if i'm like in persona non grata or what but uh i'll be in town i I'm not booked. So we'll see if I am called in.
Or if...
I mean, last year, the only comedic part of the festival
was me and Jeremy and Jay Gillespie
making fun of Wild Wild West at Sexy Pizza.
Well, I think the whole thing was a copy of errors, honestly.
Right. But I'm saying like i don't know if uh while he's pivoting away from the comedic elements and just wants to screen like
actual classic films and then there's like a little music involved or what
revolving away i just yeah I don't know
I'm in the dark and
I don't want to
the Creech waged against him
for naming it the Spaghetti and Westerns
Festival
no she was
she was relaying
things that a couple other people had
said
Tegan's partner didn't love the idea of sci-fi and stir-fry,
which, come on.
I mean, that is, and it hasn't happened.
I don't think it will.
Maybe it'll happen in Pueblo,
where there's more of an Asian-American population.
But, yeah, Megan wasn't stoked,
and I don't think that that had anything to do with
this I don't know might have been us if you guys didn't live blasting him of
course it was us blasting him I don't even think that's it I think what's
gonna happen is two days before he needs you he's gonna hit you up with a set
plan because he assumed you were in okay yeah that's what that's possible carlos just texted
becker find a piece on your way back what does that mean a piece of ass piece of glass oh you
want to get some fucking crystal methamphetamine no jesus christ weed out of you know what lun i'll
take the heat on this foily wally wally i'm sorry that uh we have blasted you on this pod for probably a total of an hour and a half for your dumb ideas.
One wanted to keep it copacetic down there, but I said, you know what, Lund?
We've got to be the bad boys that Southern Colorado needs.
We've got to scream the truth all the way over Raton Pass.
So, yeah, a lot of your ideas are bad, but we like you as a guy.
I've been known to have bad ideas.
Remember, I wanted to
have a festival I wanted to do.
What was this?
It was the Tiramisu and
No Jews Festival.
Oh yeah, we did.
A couple of our friends.
What?
Oh wait, no, that was Chowder and jaeger oh becker becker stop
how about let me jump on the facts good speaking speaking of the creators of that uh
almost festival how about the fact that during high plains we came up with our open it involved
three musical cues with one song all you had to do was play one song three different times the
first two times very obvious because either you or sharpie said to the sound booth area hit it
right so of course we're not too worried about those.
And then the third one, slightly more complex,
because as we explained in great detail a couple of times,
at the very end, there's going to be a moment
where Sam realizes that his, you know,
the whole thing was that we had six months to live.
Sam reveals that, you know, he thing was that we had six months to live sam just uh reveals
that you know he was told about this six months ago and so as you look at your watch to see what
time it is just play the song the third time and didn't really turn out that way did it thanks to
several several several fumbles by several people whose job it was to make
that happen for us right so what are you gonna do i don't think that was on little sam i think it
was on the sound person who showed up two seconds before the show started because they had to smoke
cigarettes yeah weeping makeup running down her chin uh one sleeve
torn off of her suzy and the banshee shirt the other one still attached uh it was like she like
fucking survived a mosh pit that was improvised yeah so i don't think that one was on sam
it was perfect that there were like seven people either backstage
or running around
coordinating, supervising
yeah they have headset microphones on
they have like fucking road flares
they're waving us to the stage
yeah of course
they're doing semaphores with flags
and it was
it was just so perfect that like
several times when me and you and Chris were finalizing this thing, it was like, oh man, that third time is the charm.
Especially because nobody says hit it.
There's that real second of realization, fear, whatever.
And then to break that tension with the come on, feel the noise for the third time. And instead,
we all stand there. I was holding the mic stand
and so I pointed at the sound booth like, hey,
hello. And then you're looking at your...
And then you said...
I'm looking at my watch. Yeah, I say, I'm looking at my watch.
Oh, man.
Yeah, that was good.
Luckily, it didn't matter.
They're like, okay, make sure Ron Doyle knows how many mics you have.
Give Sam your sound cues.
There's little Zach who's doing push-ups and
chin-ups because he's the bodybuilding half-man of
Crater Lake.
Make sure you put your food requests in to Karen.
If you have any makeup you need
done, talk to this person.
And then we can't even get a watch cue.
Meanwhile, I can't see everything
had one of the fucking blue angels
jump out of a plane after the flyover
and land through the skylight and that went off
without a cue but yeah
it was crazy bro
and then he said there's no just war
there's no just war
oh
it was a
born on the 4th of July situation
a vet who was speaking out
against the military industrial
complex yeah and also I don't know when that all fantasy everything who was speaking out against the military-industrial complex.
Yeah, and also, I don't know when that All Fantasy Everything comes out.
Did you see that?
The one I was on?
Oh, yeah, that one.
Spicy.
I think people are going to be like, what the fuck?
Oh.
I did hear about it.
Oh, yeah, because we drafted things you're into as an old guy.
Yeah.
And I drafted the first thing.
Things we hope we're into when we're old men. And I said 18-year-old girls
was my first pick.
And then I alluded to the fact that
Sean Jordan has a one-year-old
in 17 years. It'll work out for
both of us.
Yeah. And then Ian Carmel took
the Democratic Party. It's like,
we couldn't have been signaling
further things from each other
it's fun to be bad but you know what i don't think that that is like a mental issue for me
but you know if you have mental issues
yeah yeah uh you get me on a fucking lime scooter no no but a segue i'll drive it off the cliff
from connection to what's next uh this this episode brought to you by better help nathan
you know about better help i've heard about it it's the hot new uh way to get your brain picked and dissected and possibly rearranged in a better, healthier
way.
They go in like kids learning how to solder in shop class and they rewire your brain through,
I think they use frontal lobe shocking techniques.
Is that true?
It's kind of like a deleted scene from...
They send it to you and so it's supervised.
You are the medical professional in the room,
but with guidance,
so you're not accidentally attaching it to your dick or whatever.
It's on your temporal lobes,
and then you set the knob for the right amount of juice,
amperage,
voltage, depending on how nuts you are.
Your muku is.
If anxiety has you paralyzed, it's really hard
to live the life you want.
Therapy is an amazing way to break down your anxiety
so you can live more fully.
Are you having a hard time putting it in the basket,
chief? Well,
therapy is an amazing tool. having a hard time putting it in the basket, Chief? Well, better help
therapy is an amazing tool.
All you do is take a quick quiz to get
matched with a licensed therapist, and you'll be
on your way. On your way
from crazy town to
shine down.
You can talk
to your therapist on video chat.
Whoa! By phone. Wow! Or even just video chat. Whoa, by phone.
Wow.
Or even just by message.
All right, that's not as good as the first two.
I'm just kidding.
I love BetterHelp.
I use it every day.
It keeps me from family and I.
Have you ever spent a bunch of money on a suit you're going to wear once,
and then the two women who are most important to you in your life turn on you
while you're in the back of an Armenian cab?
where is the most important to you in your life?
Turn on you while you're in the back of an Armenian cab? Well,
however and wherever
you want to do therapy is totally up to you.
Personal endorsement.
Look,
every night when I
get home, I want to crush the tiny mirrors
inside of my wife's skull.
I want to say, the Kool-Aid man's here.
While I wear my plums too.
I'm going to look stupid in.
Because those brouhahs tricked me.
Yeah, they for sure were like, oh yeah, plum.
Plum's good for you.
I was like, thank you.
No, I have no intention to ever hurt my wife.
And I need to say that here on this public forum.
Becker, edit that part out.
Well, look, imagine if you have kids and you're kind of over it.
I bet it sucks after you family annihilate.
But, man, when you're in the throes of it, it feels pretty fucking good.
Taking that power back?
Oh, yeah.
I bet you're kind of worried as you're filling up the bathtub.
And when you say,
hey, the bagel bites are ready, but we have to eat them in the bathroom tonight.
There's probably some anxiety and trepidation involved.
But, man, as soon as they stop struggling.
So, hey, that's how better health helps me. if you don't gel with your first therapist you can easily switch anytime for no additional charge no questions asked okay is it because they were ugly
because is it because it was a man or a woman?
Yeah, did they have an accent you didn't like?
Was it because they rolled their eyes too often
while you were trying to share your very real problems?
Yeah, were they playing Candy Crush and going,
oh, wow, no way.
Were they doing the jack-off motion off motion and saying wow that's really tough
you've been you've been through a lot
were they fucking were they fucking an egg while you
made a breakthrough and realized you never forgave your dad.

Man, I just laughed so hard it upset my stomach.
Yeah, I have to go fucking do an improvised set on, I always want to say Trevor Wallace.
What's his name?
Jeremiah Watkins.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
So I'm on Jeremiah's show, and then I just do regular stand-up on another one,
then I'm done by six.
Nice. And Soder wants to hit the tables.
Fuck yeah, let's go.
We've got to get down there, man.
Watch his giant head.
He's fucking four heads tall.
Yeah.
And he's huge.
He asked about you last time.
Yeah.
Oh, nice.
That's nice of him.
Me and Spade talked about him.
Spade was under the impression that Soder was as big or bigger than you or Shane.
Is that true?
He's taller than me, I think.
Yeah, he's tall as fuck.
And he's wide?
No.
He's broad-shouldered?
He's pretty broad-shouldered.
He slouches.
He's got that I-walk-everywhere-while- i walk everywhere while i smoke posture yeah kind of like
dude he said last night that he watched that uh broncos game with mcdaniel yeah that's his name
right the head coach of the dolphins yeah mike mcdaniel oh yeah they're friends that's funny
yeah he was at that game and then afterward like he asked him, he was like, so, dude, how'd that feel?
And McDaniel was like, it was just very good to execute so well.
They have a really good defense, and it felt really good
that we were able to implement our plan.
And then two hours later, he was like, hey, man, how did it feel?
And McDaniel was like, no better fucking feeling in the world
to hang seven fucking Denver Broncos.
They overlooked me so much back in the day.
And here I am.
We could have put 73 on them,
but no,
I showed class.
And I was like,
so happy for you,
Dan.
Thank you for telling me this story.
I'm so worried the Broncos are going to ship away.
Fucking Jerry,
Judy,
Cortland Sutton,
Garrett Bowles,
maybe Sertain. There's's gonna be a fire sale
if we go oh five dude we're gonna have to rebuild all the way up it's gonna suck yeah yeah i saw
uh that dude uh brandon perna is a colorado guy that does videos funny sports videos broncos
videos and he said that mike mcdan McDaniel didn't get interviewed, didn't get
the time of day from the Broncos when he was looking for a job.
So yeah, that's stupid. Just another misstep in the fucking organization.
And now you've got the Waltons own it or whatever.
Some weird conglomerate of half sports fans.
Just like that new
trend of anybody with a bunch of money just deciding to get to buy a sports team. And then
it's like, yeah, what are you going to, you're just going to say like, get the best coach that
we can or, you know, like broad bullshit. We need to perform better. And it's like, okay, yeah,
you're going to what replace Elway with someway with some other tech fuck who also has money
and then it's their job to
Google football.
Yeah, they're going to
replace Elon Musk's
daughter.
Mrs. Mustapalistics
or whatever her name is.
It's just curious.
There are ones and zeros.
It's like, what if the ball
was round?
What if we could change the ball itself?
Very good.
Yeah, man, I don't know.
I don't have a lot of hope for the donkeys,
which is crazy to say after three games in.
But I'll be wearing my Shire jersey tomorrow
in that Circus Sports book.
They're playing the Bears,
who are maybe in more trouble than the Broncos.
I know.
I don't.
If the Broncos are favored, they're minus three.
But if they lose, god damn it.
I won't be the only one eating bagel bites in the bathroom that day.
I mean, I just know there's a big difference between the dolphins and the bears.
So you might get a glimmer of hope tomorrow,
and there might be a little bit of regrouping or whatever,
a little bit more confidence instilled.
Because, yeah, I mean, the bears are freaking out.
And their defensive coordinator got raided by the FBI, maybe, probably.
Yeah, I know.
And Ben Avery told me it was because they found a bunch of CP on his laptop.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know.
And they said it was going to happen before it happened.
I don't know if there's a truth to that or not, but it all is very shady right now.
And so that can't be good.
A bunch of people in chicago are like
was our dc a fucking chimo what the fuck you know that's that's not good for morale in the
in the training room or like were we taking orders from a pedo i think what happened dude was he was
trying to find a contract that uh former defensive coordinators had when they worked for that team.
So he was Googling Bears legal,
and I think that it auto-corrected to barely legal,
and then he probably went down a rabbit hole.
The next thing you know, the squad team's at the door,
and he's never been harder, and all the eggs have been used up.
He's got an egg on each finger don't ask where the 11th one is
oh man well i miss you lund and i can't wait to see you
i miss you too and you know a lot of people online, Reddit, Patreon, talking about how they miss us.

to jack off without going to
a porn site? That's right. An easy way to
help us out, man. I mean, even if you don't like the pod,
maybe give us five bucks out of Spike.
Yeah. You know, because the more money we get, the
closer one's going to be to driving off the road
munching Del Taco. They can afford more tacos.
Becker can get more cigarettes.
I can buy more plum suits that move me closer and closer to the ultimate day of reckoning.
Yeah.

wants to bang you so bad.
He's so turned on by your body.
