The life they choose will make the news

Couldn't make this up
So listen to our podcast jam
With co-host Armand Dan
Banders, don't be a jerk Cause when the music gets the funny So listen to our podcast jam with co-host Armand Dan.

That's when the music gets the funny hits.

Stick around, make a sound, punk it down.
It's Dumb People Town.
Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of Dumb People Town.
You know what, we're gonna do a live show and we're gonna find out if this worked or not i don't know i think it works it works for our guest shot works for our guests he joined in our guest is
doug benson welcome to the show dumb people town i like that one too i like that one too i do buddy
hi thanks for joining us uh on this show we just did your lovely podcast, Doug Loves Movies, live in Portland.
It was super fun.
That was a good one.
A number of your shows. The Madison one, when, is it you, Jay, that could not think of Daniel Day-Lewis
in There Will Be Blood?
Yeah.
That was one of the best moments.
I kept looking at my left foot, and I just couldn't,
getting no clues from his
left foot.
Doug, let's talk about your show. What show? The TV show. High Court. Getting no clues from his left foot.
Doug, let's talk about your show.
What show?
It's a TV show.
High Court.
High Court.
All 20 episodes have aired.
People like it.
Is it coming back?
Comedy Central's sitting around.
Deciding?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Among other things.
I don't know how they spend their days.
Podcast listeners that will know, I'm not going to say why that doug and i hang out a lot and i remember in the process of like shooting the show doug told me about this bit with rory because the best thing
this is even in the first episode that i saw at the premiere these people will at a certain point
they don't need doug to even be there no they're just going to air it out with each other they
just keep going and so i don't know how you started it, but these two people
are going at each other. Doug takes the gavel
and just kind of tosses it to prove
I think that they aren't even paying attention.
They're not even going to pay attention. Rory goes and gets it.
Rory goes and gets it and doesn't just
give it back. He, in a most
formal, professional sense, presents it
back to Doug. Doug takes it,
lets Rory get reset up against the wall,
throws it again. They do this like eight times. These twoory get reset up against the wall. Throws it again.
They do this like eight times. These two
people never stop yelling at each other.
If people haven't seen that episode, you
have to because it is hilarious. It's known as the
gavel throw. The high court gavel
throw. I actually was thinking about it the entire
time I was in jury duty.
I even tweeted out
wishing that Doug was the judge.
I said I wish this was the high court with Doug Benson. That's what I tweeted out wishing that Doug was the judge I said I wish this was the high court
with Doug Benson that's what I tweeted out
that's what everybody wishes now
everything could be settled do people see you on the streets
and just ask you to settle disputes
no
cause you don't like to hang on the streets
yeah I don't you know people don't
ask me to solve anything yet
or judge anything
Todd Glass as a bailiff.
I feel like it's something, like every bailiff should be Todd Glass.
He just wants to show off his sleeve of tattoos. Sleeve of tattoos.
Yeah, but he just stands there with his arms folded and he gets disgusted.
Really?
He gets very disgusted with everything.
He can't believe what's going on.
He's in shock that he has to watch you preside over this now.
Well, there was a case where a guy punches
another guy in the face and Todd's like, the first
guy who punches somebody, they're in the wrong
no matter what the other guy did.
I'm like, there's got to be some
extenuating circumstances, Todd.
No, no matter what he did.
You punch a guy, you're the one that's
wrong. He really
sticks to that.
I feel like Doug has had a lot of experience
like mixing in
with the people of
the people who populate a lot of the stories on
this podcast
wouldn't that be great if we had a story
on Dumb People Telling that ended on
the next season of High Court
needed to be decided by Doug
and Doug's like well I've done a lot of case work on this
so this is your chance
I don't want it to go all the way to my favorite murder, but if it just did R2, that would
still be good enough.
I don't want it to go that far.
No, I don't want it to go that far.
Do you guys want to do a story?
Let's do one.
Doug, would you like to do a story?
Yeah, okay.
All right.
Do you want to do a story?
I didn't know I'd have that kind of power over the format of this show.
We're all in it.
All right, no stories.
That's it.
That's a show.
Great show, buddy. No stories tonight. We're just going to together. We're all in it. All right, no stories. That's it. That's a show. Great show, buddy.
No stories tonight.
We're just going to go straight to bed.
No stories tonight in my coffee.
No stories tonight in my tea.
But having coffee and tea, do you really think at night he wants coffee and tea?
He doesn't want sugar in any of it.
Bretton Cummings does not care.
He doesn't want any sugar in any of it.
He shouldn't be having coffee or tea that late at night.
No.
He treats sugar the way I treat cilantro. Hates it. I don't want any of it. He shouldn't be having coffee or tea that late at night. He treats sugar the way I treat
cilantro. Hates it.
You don't like it? I think he
thinks sugar tastes like dishwashing detergent.
Maybe he's having sleepy time tea.
Oh, that's a good call.
Sleeping time coffee's good, too.
Mother's milk tea.
He's trying to bring in his milk.
I remember I ordered tacos for the table once, and you were adamant
about cilantro. Table tacos. Alright, here we go ordered tacos for the table once, and you were adamant about cilantro.
Table tacos.
All right, here we go.
So good.
This was sent in by El Mad Anto.
At E-L-M-A-D-A-N-T-O.
Kind of like the El Madrigal.
Yeah, El Madrigal.
Can I, I got to write that down.
Yes. El Mad Anto.
You got it.
You got it.
You got it.
El Mad Anto.
I'm probably saying it wrong.
The Nanny state.
Is that real?
Do you guys know what the nanny state is?
Anywhere where Fran Drescher is?
I don't know either.
Florida?
That's the...
Machete state.
Pull over to the left state, right?
Yeah.
Machete state.
To the left.
Who would pull over to the left?
What's wrong with me?
Cheek state?
One way, maybe.
What state has the most working families that have to have a
nanny well according to this it's south dakota is that real south dakota's the nanny it can't be
that's just gotta be like some those highfalutin people in south dakota liberties this reporter
took well anyway it says the nanny state has got a guy feeling like a snake on a leash you know
when they open with jokes we're gonna be great it's a sing-songy title south
dakota snake owner jerry kimball well i bet you if he had his choice that's the way he would always
be introduced snake owner if you're my uncle j is my uncle jerry kimball whoa whoa snake owner
snake owner south dakota snake owner jerry kimball snake owners are like people who've been to prague
they cannot wait to tell you about it
by the way
have you ever been to Prague
no
it's amazing
have you been to Prague
I saw a snake there
oh that's good
that's the best story of all
yeah
and I've got the pictures
have you been to Prague really
yeah
and you won't shut up about it
I can't believe it
and it's really not even my fault
if I wanted
Charles River
it's like
old town it's like Sir Mix-a-Lot.
You can't lie.
Well, he liked Big Buds.
He cannot lie.
Right.
I'd like to not tell you about Prague.
I can't not do it.
I have to tell you about Prague.
It was amazing.
Well, South Dakota snake owner Jerry Kimball, JK, was positively, quote, dumbfounded to
learn he could not let a snake roam freely in a park he took his snake
to the park off leash yeah yeah is there a snake run in the park a snake run you can't take a snake
to a park with families and kids and be like run around have fun just come back when you're done
letting it get air that's a dumb guy kimball Kimball was fined $190 for not having...
That seems too little.
That either seems like too little or way too much.
His four-month-old Fire Bee Ball Python, that's a name, on a leash, and he's not happy about it.
Do you think that someone manufactures snake leashes?
We're going to get to the bottom of it.
Would a rope suffice?
Well, a rope is more of a noose
when you're talking about a snake.
You got to tie it cruelly tight.
Cruel.
Where are you going to put the tags?
I don't get this whole thing.
I mean, it seems like
they're basically saying no snakes.
You are essentially reading the quotes from Jerry Kimball without even knowing.
I'm sorry, snake owner Jerry Kimball.
South Dakota snake owner.
Where does it say no snakes?
Doug, you are in the wheelhouse right now.
Quote, it was April Fool's Day.
This guy lives in South Dakota.
I am not joking.
He has a southern dialect.
It was April Fool's Day, so I thought he was playing a joke.
I know this because I watched the news footage.
I thought he was playing a joke, Kimball told the Argus Leader.
Don't know what that is, other than the coolest naming newspaper I've ever heard.
The Argus Leader.
The Argus Leader, about being ticketed by an animal control officer.
Quote, they're not fast creatures.
They're not going to run away.
They are very loving, you know.
Like this one is calm, cool, collected.
She loves attention.
She loves affection.
Just don't put your hands near her mouth.
She's very photogenic.
Just don't get anywhere near her.
I would say calling it a she is a stretch.
It's a snake.
He knows if it's a guy or a girl.
Really?
Keep your rat child baby away from him and everything will be fine.
That's right.
A little bee.
He only swallowed one little dog.
He's standing up there on the middle of the park just being like, he's eating.
He's already eating.
Relax.
I fed him.
You know what?
It is one of those moments where the guy thinks he's above the law because he has a snake.
Like holding a snake makes you feel biblically above the law.
Yeah, like you're tapped into some other time.
Yeah, I control animals.
I control one of the most dangerous animals around.
Why can't I tell people what to do?
I mean, think about, listen to the last three sentences of him describing his own snake,
which proves beyond a doubt he is a snake guy.
Thought about it too much.
She loves attention.
She loves affection.
She's very photogenic.
Could be talking about his dick.
Now, the third one is his opinion.
By the way, she loves attention, she loves affection.
Fine. I'm going to give him those two.
You feel like he's known the snake long enough.
If you pet the snake, he maybe rolls over
on her back or something like that.
But very photogenic.
There's no back.
They can't smile or frown.
No.
They just got resting snake face.
Very photogenic.
Here's the question.
Also, I've seen planet Earth.
Every animal is photogenic.
Yeah.
Number one and number two, this guy either has like the lowest bar ever for what makes
a great picture.
What considers photogenic, yeah.
I think this guy just has the lowest bar, period, on a lot of things.
This snake really likes people. See how he's slithering away
see how he's slithering around everywhere
that's how much he likes you guys
it's a good sign that he loves you
I just picture him with it around his neck
he only does that if he loves you man
saying things to it like what'd you say
oh don't look at me like that
or just I know
you're right i always
raise a red flag when it's someone insists on getting a pet of the opposite sex why because
that seems to replace a life partner just in that moment just some emotional love and i'm not
discounting gay people owning pets i think they're allowed now you're into it i think they're allowed to now i don't know our
brothers the thing about saying uh where is this again south dakota the nanny state okay you know
why did i forget it's in the nanny state straight from the nanny state he says the thing about
snakes though is that they can still move, which is why the officer suggested
Kimball put a leash on his pet.
This is what he said.
Here we go, Doug.
Kimball told the publication, Argus Leader, for people following along at home, he was
like literally asking me to put a rope around my snake.
Yeah, I was like, dude, no.
I was dumbfounded.
Yeah.
You're dumbfounded.
The snake could go right
through the hole in the rope i feel like that's also his excuse for not wearing condoms i don't
put a rope on the snake hey man i don't put a rope on well you want me to tie the snake up with
another snake is that what you're asking i think he needs one of those things that the korean
grocers that like pulls the claw the claw you know i'm talking about the claw but just keep it
clamped around the snake and keep keep it clamped around the snake.
No, no, this is good for the snake.
Jerry Kimball posted a message on Facebook via, here's the most key word, his group,
Sioux Falls Snake Adventures.
That's his group.
That's his group.
Every day is an adventure.
What are you doing tomorrow?
You want to meet me for a snake adventure?
Well, that depends.
Are you going to bring your camera?
Because you know how photogenic she is.
That's his snake adventures.
He's like, we're going to take a snake to a park.
Right.
Off leash, bitches.
You pay me, I'll let you watch.
I'll let you watch.
I mean, kudos to people who find whatever they love to do in life.
But when I hear of a guy who has his own Facebook group called Sioux Falls Snake Adventures,
this is who the song Everybody's Working for the Weekend was written for.
Yeah.
I mean, on some level, it is quite beautiful.
Yeah.
He's got his thing.
Look, I'm happy it's not technology.
I'm happy it's the animal world.
Although, listen, if you are buying a snake, which is one of the most alternative pets you can have.
Sure.
You and also people are afraid of snakes.
There was never like a Samuel L. Jackson movie
called Bunnies on a Plane.
Right.
Like that's never happened.
Snakes are phobia.
Snakes on a plane scare the shit out of people.
So if that is going to happen,
you have to be prepared for people to be freaked out
that you are carrying it.
Right.
Instead of just letting it free roam among them.
Whether the other person's right or not,
you're going to have to put a leash on them.
He knows what a special creature it is.
He knows the negative and positive attention it gets
when he takes it places.
He understands how photogenic Sherry Church is.
If y'all stopped screaming, you'd see the beauty.
If y'all stopped screaming, you'd see the beauty.
The ultimate sign of love is to share your bed with a snake.
I mean, that's the ultimate sign of trust. I lay down with a snake, I get up with a snake. That is the ultimate sign of love is to share your bed with a snake. I mean, that's the ultimate sign of trust.
I lay down with a snake, I get up with a snake.
That is the ultimate sign of trust.
Also, keep in track, Doug has laid down two of the best pickup lines in the history of Dumb People Town.
The ultimate sign of love is laying in bed with a snake.
And do you want to go on a snake adventure tomorrow?
Yes.
This is what Jerry Kimball posted on Facebook.
I'm sorry, Snake Guy Jerry Kimball.
So, this is just him writing.
Stream of consciousness, if you believe it or not.
So, how about I got a ticket Saturday while doing an educational meet and greet at Falls Park?
Now, I'm going to stop.
Now he suddenly made it this.
It's a meet and greet.
Which you know he said to the snake before he left.
You guys ready for a meet and greet?
Yeah.
Took the snake.
Took the snake. Meet the snake to the park.
Meet and greets are what you do after you do a comedy show.
Also, meet and greets are set up by people who want,
they want the meet and greet.
Right.
They're there to meet and greet you.
He wanted to meet.
You don't force a meet and greet on people.
Just like you don't force a snake on someone at a park.
Hey, people of this park, it's time to meet and greet.
Meet and greet what?
Now, look, you just stay where you are. My snake adventure. She's going to come around. She's going to meet and greet meet and greet what now look you just stay where you are she's
my snake adventure she's gonna come around she's gonna come around to you you stay she's gonna let
me just pull my snake out no no don't charge at her she doesn't love that does not love that stop
breathing over there stop breathing she doesn't like that either can we get those kids off the
swing set that's too small of a dog ma'am you're gonna have to leave the park he was doing well
so that would make people's dogs go nuts, too.
Nuts! So how about I got a ticket Saturday
while doing an educational meet and greet
at Falls Park for not having my
snakes on a leash, LOL.
Plural?
Plural. The plot thickens.
I never heard
of such a thing. This is crazy.
I've been doing this for 20 plus years.
A fact that I'm sure he tells anyone who will listen.
20 plus years I've been having snakes.
And a fact that a lot of people know.
That's why they don't go to the park anymore.
I am not going to go.
You want to go to the park with the kids?
Not if the snake guy is going to be there.
I've been taking these snakes to this deserted park for going on two decades.
And nobody has complained.
It's funny, 21 years ago, it was packed.
We were here before the jungle gym.
This is a first for me, anyone else ever heard of putting a snake on a leash without injuring it or getting off just...
Or getting off, just kind of want to show...
I'm sorry, I'm trying to make sense.
He's afraid that the thing's gonna leave.
Oh, I should say this.
It's a paragraph he uses no punctuation.
Of course.
Without injuring it or getting off,
just kinda wanna show off this nonsense.
Maybe you could give me your thoughts on the matter
as I fight this in court.
Thank you in advance for looking.
What?
I don't know, looking?
Reading?
Why?
Thanks for looking. Though the Argus newspaper know. Looking? Reading? Why? Thanks for looking.
Though the Argus newspaper only mentions one fireball-free python, a photo of the citation,
which he included in his message, shows that there were two ball pythons on the grass with
nobody holding them.
He took two pythons out to a park.
Yes.
So he couldn't...
You can't manage both.
So if somebody what if somebody got scared didn't
know that those were his pythons took whatever tool shovel thing they had in their hands and
just started whacking away because i might do that if my children were around the thing i bet
people are going to write us and say yeah you know an opportunity when you see it
get the shovel get the shovel. Get the shovel, honey.
We're going to have a snake adventure.
We're about to have our own snake adventure.
My son would love nothing more than to destroy a snake with a shovel.
He would love nothing more in this universe.
So Jason, put your snake on a leash. This is a future serial killer.
Oh, fair enough.
Jason, put your snake on a leash for the protection of the snake.
Yeah, that sounds better.
The snake.
I bet people are going to tell us that if it was a hot day out, the snakes would just lay in one place and not really want to.
Especially if they have eaten.
You know what?
I guarantee you.
Watch.
Here come the comments.
Here they come.
Here come the comments.
Jerry Kimball was ticketed for animals running at large.
Referring to the cop, Kimball said, quote, he He was like, technically you have to have them on a leash.
I was like, sir, they do not make such an item.
Back to Doug's earlier comment.
No such thing as a snake leash.
Snake leash.
Although someone needs to start making snake leashes.
Yes, last year, many citations were issued in the city of Sioux Falls for violating the rule.
Kimball, however, doesn't think it should apply to snakes.
I'm going to ask you guys really quick.
How many citations do you think were issued for animals not on a leash in Sioux Falls?
Just a fun one we're doing here.
Because I first read this as specifically snakes and it blew my mind.
Then I realized it was for...
In a year?
In a year.
How many?
70.
70 from Doug Benson.
130.
130 from Jason Sklar.
200.
200 from Randy Sklar.
Last year, 253.
Whoa!
That's a lot of snakes.
I know.
Let's pretend it's all snakes.
All snakes.
And it's all this guy.
Right.
One dude. Kimball doesn't think it should apply of snakes. I know, let's pretend it's all snakes. All snakes. And it's all this guy. Right. One dude.
Kimball doesn't think
it should apply to snakes.
Jerry Kimball said
he plans to fight the ticket.
Quote,
people have a fear of snakes.
I want to change that.
Okay.
That is...
Well, that is a valid...
That's valid.
Yeah, but there's a way...
That's why there's no
South Dakota Jones.
Yes.
Because they got so many
snakes in Sioux Falls.
That's right.
This should be season four of Fargo.
I want to change that.
He gets deep here.
That's my purpose in life,
to let people know that snakes aren't killers.
Technically, they are killers, though.
They just don't...
Yours aren't killing in that moment.
Python sounds scary.
Right.
What better way to give back
than to help people understand these
misunderstood creatures?
You know,
educational meet and greet.
Is he literally asking
what better way
than to just drop them
off at the park
and see what happens?
This is definitely
a guy who they're like,
hey,
what's his name again?
Jerry Kimball.
Hey, Jerry,
the kids are having
a birthday party.
Nope,
do not bring your snakes over.
Don't bring them.
We're just going to go ahead
and right now tell you to leave those snakes at home.
Just leave them at home.
Thanks.
I know you want to teach everybody.
Just leave them at home.
Yeah, why doesn't he make an exhibit in his garage?
And then people can come by if they want to see it.
People would do that, I bet.
Yeah.
Have a cooler of beer ready to go.
Charge 50 cents a can.
Have a cooler of snakes ready to go.
We bought a zoo.
Isn't that the basis of we bought a zoo, Doug, I ask you?
It is.
I love movies.
Thanks for that. Doug loves movies. Honey, I know you're leaving, but I want to know, we bought a snake. We bought a snake. We bought a zoo. Isn't that the basis of we bought a zoo, Doug, I ask you? It is. I love movies. Thanks for that.
Doug loves it.
Honey, I know you're leaving, but I want to know, we bought a snake.
We bought a snake.
We bought a snake.
We bought a snake zoo.
Nothing will help people feel more comfortable with a python, this is the person writing
this article, than having it roam freely in a park.
I agree with that.
Funny.
Jerry Kimball closed with, I'm not the most educated man in the world, but I do have 20
years experience.
We're back to that point. I'm taking the most educated man in the world, but I do have 20 years experience. We're back to that point.
I'm taking these things apart.
And I'm smart enough to know that you cannot put a snake on a leash.
Well, he is smart enough.
I, for one, am proposing that Byron Allen host a show of just four snakes, and it's called Snakes Unleashed.
Coming up next, we got a Burmese.
Hey, Burmese Python, you said you flew recently.
What was that like for you? I would have set you up.
What's that story you had
about visiting your in-laws?
That's a story, guys.
First story down in the books.
The great Doug Benson is with us
and we've got more Dumb People Town
right after this. Stick around, make a sound, there's more Dumb People Town. show getting doug with high yep uh and and doug loves movies and dining with doug and karen are
we missing any doug that's a lot of shows check out a doug loves minis yeah love minis doug love
movies an interruption coming to a city near you at some point i'm sure eruptions gonna be in
nashville soon nice done some good stuff i love that you roll into a town and and you don't just
bring the stand up put on some shows different shows. You put on all kinds of shows.
Different things, different formats.
It's cool.
I do think it's awesome that you, as a comedian, have adapted to changing ways of presenting
comedy.
It's awesome.
You are at the forefront, I would say, of that.
You were one of the first people who told us to do a podcast, by the way.
Oh, yeah?
Back in the dizzay.
Really?
Back at UCB.
We're in the green room at UCB Franklin,
and we were really interested in doing it.
And you had just started doing it or been doing it for a year or so,
and you said, I think you gave two comments.
Three, actually.
You said it's a great way to draw sort of an imaginary circle around your audience
and bring them closer to you,
as well as you guys already know how to do
it and can handle it and you would have a great time doing it those were three things we needed
to hear and then like shortly thereafter we started doing it it was you and pardo and hardwick
and fit simmons the four of you guys were like you should do it and that was very influential
doug told me to get out of the game yeah Yeah. There was a point where I realized that telling all these people to do podcasts is idiotic
because I'm just creating competition for myself.
That's right.
So now when people ask, I say, get out.
There's not enough room for anyone anymore.
That idea is not good that you have.
Yeah.
And I just secretly, I gnash my teeth at night and think of ways to murder people
that have more than one podcast.
That's right.
Know your place, I think, is what you wanted to tell a lot of people.
Know your place in life.
Is this driving before we go to Austin or after?
After.
Oh, okay.
Thanks for everybody who came there.
Thanks for everybody.
Oh, yeah.
Austin's always great.
I bet you had a great time.
Such a good time.
Hey, we're going to be in Kansas City.
Yeah?
We're going to be there May 11th through the 13th.
Excited about those shows.
Nice.
We haven't done shows in Kansas City.
Nice.
We're going to do a Finding the Funny while we're there, which will be really cool.
Mr. Rogowski.
Rogowski will be there.
So come see us at the Kansas City Improv May 11th, like leading up to that Mother's Day weekend.
And then we'll sort of lay out the rest of where we're going to be.
Just go to superscribers.com and all of our dates will be on there.
Doug, where can they check you out?
Douglovesmovies.com is where all my dates are.
Beautiful.
Get it.
All right, Dan, what else you got for us?
First, I want to say I love everybody who listens to this show.
So many people are sending me stories.
New people.
Oh, tons of people.
I have to give a nod.
So many people, I don't know if any of you guys saw this in the room,
there was a story floating around a couple weeks ago
about a girl who trained squirrels to attack her ex-boyfriend.
Yes.
Which is fantastic.
This story was probably sent to me more than any other story.
For those of you who don't know, and some of the people who love us,
let me know, fake.
The whole thing's fake.
The whole thing's fake.
Fine.
So some people who are part of our, I call them our Dumb People Town Research Department.
They're definitely-
Verifiers.
They work for the city council.
Yes, they do.
Some sort of position where they check everything for us.
Fact checkers.
They let me know.
So thanks to everybody who said that.
And then also, I want to let people know, we're going to be starting a Dumb People Town
Facebook page.
Yeah.
And that'll have links to the stories
and stuff that we do on there so people can go on there
and talk about it.
That will be starting soon.
There's always the Dumb People Town.
You follow Dumb People Town on Twitter as well.
Yes. So everybody
join that group once it starts.
You'll probably see it by the time this is up.
And I love that you're part of
this Dumb People Town community with us. is there a picture of the squirrels no but they just
use stock photo because it was fake fake squirrels photos it didn't happen but they did have photos
so it still didn't happen i wonder if you could leash for a squirrel probably that's easier right
not in south dakota i wonder if you could lease a squirrel. Yeah. To own? Yeah, with an option to buy. Okay, this was sent in by Lance Rodeo.
At Lance Rodeo.
It's like it sounds.
No fake names, please.
Well, it's not his first rodeo.
Who knows?
We don't.
You ready?
Yep.
Two men.
Two men trying to join Tallahassee's version of the Mile High Club at the Florida Capitol
were given trespass warnings last week.
So they were trying to have sex with each other.
Yeah.
God bless it.
Sure.
They're already fighting an uphill battle because Tallahassee is a very hilly town.
Slip J.
At Sklar Brothers, guys.
It's a little chicken.
At Sklar Brothers, guys.
It is, if you listen to S-Town, you know the South not too welcoming to the gays.
Well, I mean, hey, they're taking over the Florida Capitol, and I give them kudos for that.
It is a university town, though, so God bless it. It happened around 1245 p.m. April 3rd, when an officer with Capitol Police went into a men's restroom on the 22nd floor
to wash his hands,
according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
That's where I like to wash my hands.
I just like that one.
Oh, that's at the Mile High apartment?
I guess, because they're on the 22nd floor.
That can't be a mile.
That's not a mile high.
I thought it had to be in a plane.
I didn't think it just has to be a mile up.
Or in Denver.
Denver is the Mile High City.
You guys can take a pass, but I'm going to ask.
Any handjob in Denver.
Wait, if you get a handjob in Denver, you're in the mile-high club?
Any handjob in Denver.
Doug, you're going to Denver.
Yeah, but I'm already in the club.
I'm going to ask you guys.
You can take a pass.
Have any of you engaged in any business on a plane?
Yes. At times of the year? Really? Randy. any of you engaged in any business on a plane? Yes.
At times.
Really?
Randy.
That's Randy for the listener at home.
Jay?
No.
No?
Never.
I watched two people watch.
I haven't had any real business.
No.
I haven't really gotten it on.
I watched two people go at it.
I was on a United flight.
Have sex on a plane?
I'm sitting in the aisle.
Across the aisle from me.
Stop.
Is a girl on the aisle, and then empty seat, and then a guy.
And I had noticed them at the gate, and they looked like they were not a couple.
They looked like business people traveling together, but they were also friends.
And there was an age discrepancy.
And in my own mind,'m like oh they work together
he's married
she's the boss
we're about an hour into this flight
she takes her legs
turns towards the window seat
and puts them up on his lap
and kind of like takes a little nap
and I'm like oh that's pretty comfortable for the two of them
he then takes a blanket
and puts it over her flat.
Now, she has kicked off her sandals, shoes, whatever she was wearing.
So her feet are exposed out of the end of the blanket.
But from about calf to torso is covered.
Then he turns kind of towards her.
And they think they're so conspicuous.
Is it conspicuous're so conspicuous.
Is it conspicuous?
Inconspicuous.
Inconspicuous is correct.
They're like our children.
When they crouch down,
if they close their eyes,
then they've disappeared. He puts one hand on her lap above the pillow.
Other arm goes under the blanket.
And then I just start seeing a right-handed thrusting motion.
It's like I can see your shoulder moving.
He's trying to be, but what's giving her away is,
remember how I said her feet were exposed?
They start moving.
Just a lot of just releasing.
Toe curl.
Toe curl.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I'm watching these two, and then he,
at one point, her eyes are, she's in a different place.
He looks over at me like, what, you know,
because he notices I'm watching.
And I look at him, I go, you're doing it.
On the plane.
Yes.
Yeah. So I took mine out. Put that snake, put a leash on that I'm watching. And I look at him and I go, you're doing it. On the plane? Yes. So I took mine out.
Put a leash on that snake, bitch.
I took mine out.
The three of us had a great fight.
I don't think that happened.
The last part didn't.
I love that.
You're doing it.
Yeah, that's what I said.
I go, you're doing it.
You should have grabbed the vomit bag and started miming.
Vomit.
All right.
It happened around...
To start hitting
the call button
over and over again.
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
I was wondering
if you could just
look to your right.
The officer,
so he walks in
to wash his hands.
That's what they say.
Yeah, like you were saying,
Rand, he just loves that sink.
The officer saw two pairs of...
They said if you look
to row 15,
you'll see the Grand Canyon.
Do you think that's a harsh...
That's what...
That's a harsh description
of her vagina.
I mean, he was really...
It was a lot of action
going on.
It's a lot of arm action.
Yeah, a lot of action.
And if you're on the other side
of the plane,
you can still see it.
That's how grand it is.
The officer saw two pairs of shoes in the handicapped stall.
I love his point here.
That were nowhere near the toilet or the sink.
He's watching it going, hmm.
It's hanging out.
That's an invisible man.
About the same time.
Imagine this, guys.
Some guy, he's probably three and a half years marked on his calendar away from retirement, gold watch
with the elastics. He can see
the finish line. He's washing
his hands. He looks
up behind him, sees two
pairs of shoes, right?
And the only bathroom he can trust in this damn
building. Floor 22. About that same
time, one of the men looked over the
stall divider to see who would
come in. Who dat? Who's out
here? Hey, who's out here?
We're busy. Don't mess with our shoes.
The officer heard what sounded like clothes
being put back on and ordered the men
to come out of the stall.
Ages 20 and 21.
One of the men said they
What's the problem? You guys, do you know
that this used to be my job?
At Marshall's. At Marshall Fields.
Marshall Fields.
You used to have sex with dudes in the men's room.
Like it was my job.
You're doing this.
No.
It became too much like a job, Doug, so we had to stop doing it.
It took away all the fun.
You know.
No.
And then he was trying to have-
Marshall Fields probably still-
Every time he had sex at home, it was like, ah, I got to take my work home with me.
Where's the stall?
Yeah.
I hate it.
No, at Marshall Fields, I was like a secret shopper and marshall fields is an underground secret
place it was for like men for since the 60s and then now when i worked there they would
back in college they would say like on the hour you just need to check the bathrooms and one time
i walked in and there were two men right in front of the urinals just going at it oh man like it was a united flight to tucson just going god bless them yeah
and then we we they ran out and one of them got tackled into the christmas trees it's a long story
check out my episode of the crab feast if you want to hear that one okay jeez so
i remember telling the people they were like i radio. I was like, we've got a situation.
They're like, what's the code?
Because they had codes for everything.
And I just said, there's no code for what I just saw.
That was the biggest penis I've ever seen in my life.
All right.
In person.
Okay, here we go.
You've been hanging out with Greg Oden.
He looked over to see who had come in.
The officer heard what sounded like clothes.
One of the men said, they decided to hook up on the top floor at the Capitol after meeting on the gay dating
app Grindr.
Great.
Yes.
He admitted to the officer that they were having intercourse.
So now they're like, look, I'm going to-
At this point, let's just be honest.
Here's what's going on.
We were having inter-
Fine.
I hope he was like, we were making love, and the cop was like, don't call him making love.
Making love creeps everybody out.
Not on a gay sense, just in life.
In general.
You ever look at somebody and be like, I'm going to make love to you.
You can't make love.
You will turn it off.
To say you're making love.
You can take love.
You can take love, but you can't make it.
You can snake love.
Off leash.
Whatever you say, Jerry.
He admitted to the officer they were having intercourse in the restroom stall, but later
denied making such a statement.
Neither man was charged because the officer did not witness
any lewd or lascivious behavior so i love that i am now gonna say that this officer you know
an officer can do whatever he wants in that instance sure could say he saw something yeah
you know what i mean he did see something and he said he didn't see anything yeah he'd have to
write down what he saw maybe it was too much he saw i saw a penis and a buttock
too much paperwork but these people who are like where imagine them on grinder because the whole
i've never done like online dating but there's like the message via app then there's message
via phone to phone i know there's meet up right there's only stages and they were like where do
you want to do it?
At the Capitol?
But I think if you said that to me,
I would be like,
you've done this before.
Right.
If that was your idea,
it's not that special.
Or I would think
this is part of the thing.
We need to be having sex
near government documents.
I hope this is just
trickle down social change
in Florida.
Yeah.
That they're like,
start at the top,
we just trickle down.
Start at the 22nd floor,
just trickle it all down
from there.
Yeah.
Trickle down economics.
I hope the cop also
didn't give us a edition
because he was like,
it's just love, man.
Yeah, man.
I get it.
Neither was charged
because the officer
did not witness any behavior.
According to the
whatever report,
both of the men
were escorted off the property
and given trespass warnings,
which means come back whenever. Yeah. So they got yes and several other state offices so they went ahead and
said here's some other ones we don't want you going to as well but i'd say they got in they're
part of the mile high club they did you know i doubt 22 floors is a mile high no that's 220 i
think it really winds up being the story that the cop now can tell everybody that you know what i
mean you're gonna believe this you ain't going to believe this.
I go in.
You know where I like to wash my hands, right?
But then his thing is, where do you like to wash your hands?
In the toilet.
You know that one toilet I like to wash my hands in?
On 22?
You talking about the one up on 22?
It's got the best flow.
Cleanest toilet I've ever seen.
Best flow.
I'll even take a sip just to, if I want to just, and I won't drink it.
I'll just swish it around and throw it out again.
When I go into a bathroom and they don't have paper towels,
a little part of me hates that establishment.
I'm sorry.
I know that it's more effective to have the dryers,
but I hate it.
You like knowing that that's an option.
Yeah, I hate it.
Will you dry on an air dryer first
and then get to the things you're using less?
I'll do an air dryer,
and then I have to do a shirt maneuver to open the door
because there's never a good way out.
Yeah.
There's no easy way out.
There's no shortcut home.
Want to do one more?
Yeah.
All right, we'll do it after this break.
Let's do it.
Stick around.
Make a sound.
There's more Dumb People Town.

let's start this let's see how high can we get the population of dumb people town on itunes do it
and give it five stars and we appreciate that okay here we go yep last one sent in by pedro corsega 1080 i think he's really into high def i
have a pedro corsega rookie baseball you're a liar yeah no it's a mint condition p3 dro
which makes me think he's also a star wars fan p3d arrow i'm gonna ask you guys a question you
have to answer these aren't the droids you're looking for. Ever thought of having a cream egg in your butt? No.
Doug, you... Do I win for answering the fastest?
Yes, you do.
And also...
Here's your cream egg!
The squad is lose by not being able to answer yet.
Well, my thought is to have my thought about that.
He's going to give it some consideration.
I definitely have seen it and marveled at the size of it.
I don't think they would...
Wait, you've seen an egg in a butt?
Is this an Easter story?
No, I've seen a Cadbury creamed egg
I don't think it can fit
in my ass. I don't think that would fit.
That's probably a fair estimate.
Yeah, I mean, like the smaller ones
like the Hershey's, the tiny
Hershey's ones that are still wrapped
in a shiny wrapping, those could go up.
Well, as it says here... Why doesn't Cadbury
eggs make like a...
Like an anal egg.
An anal egg.
Because they'd melt.
Wait, so when somebody says to you,
has this ever happened to you,
you have to think back,
well, could it have happened?
No, it said, have you ever thought about it?
Oh, thought about it.
Your answer is no, it holds up.
You did, the answer should have been no,
but I'm going to think about it now.
Now that you brought it up. Here we here we go now i literally have not been around easter candy
very much but my kids like to hunt for eggs and so we've joined that did you do like a jewish
easter egg hunt yes i've hid one last egg kids can you find it come on is it a fair is do the
eggs get a head start when the kids are hunting for them?
Yes, the eggs get a head start.
It's like Hunger Games.
Yeah, no, and they love it.
And I just tell them this is not an Easter egg hunt.
This is an egg hunt.
When the Jews were in Egypt, when they were in the desert wandering around before they got to Israel,
they had to hunt for eggs full of candy.
Kid chocolate eggs.
That's what they did.
Well, they say here, Cadbury's cream eggs, delicious treats.
Ever wondered how they taste from the other side?
No.
Okay, ooh, Randy wants that one for answering first there.
Yeah, I was taking a drink.
I know.
Well, Crazy Man, Bruce Patterson.
Is that his name?
BP.
Crazy Man, Bruce Patterson.
Wasn't there a guy named Baby Man Bruce Baum?
Yep.
Thank you.
Comedian.
Dressed like a baby.
Did you ever work with him?
Yeah, he did a baby man bit.
What was his bit?
I had never seen the baby man bit.
He'd just be in a diaper and just be a man.
No, but he'd be a man.
No.
No, but he wouldn't be a baby.
Wouldn't he just talk like a regular man but look like a baby?
But he was a baby man, yeah.
You guys, in your 90s of doing...
I feel like in the 90s, there were so many more comics who had like...
Talking about the 80s, man.
80s, that they named themselves that weren't their name.
Doug has a joke that we always made him do for years and years and years.
It's about candy.
Really?
It was the impression of a girl who's trapped inside a well
who doesn't understand the gravity of her situation.
Which is?
I'm going to get some candy.
It's a great joke!
It's a great damn joke.
Damn, damn, damn.
I'll set that up seven days a week.
Seven days a week I'll set that up.
Crazy man Bruce Patterson doesn't bother eating the sugary treats.
He shoves them up his arse.
So there was a time, you know about butt chugging beers.
We did that story.
That was one of the first counties.
The tour de Franzia is another way to do it.
I wonder if this has the same effect.
A sugar high?
Well, what about edibles?
Because they make edibles in chocolate.
Taking an edible up the ass.
Yeah, I haven't really heard about suppository edibles.
Me either.
Because, you know, there's that word edibles in there.
Right.
Yeah.
You can just eat it.
And then in Wolf of Wall Street, doesn't he blow coke into that girl's butt?
I think so.
That's like the opening scene of Wolf of Wall Street.
Is it?
Yes.
Do you call it Wolf of Wall Street? It's Wolf of Wall Street, dude. Wolf. Yeah. It's not Wolf. It of Wolf of Wall Street is it yeah wolf wall street wolf of Wall Street wolf yeah well it's wolf of all
call it wolf it's wolf it's wolf what's that a song hungry like a wolf yeah you
guys have not seen wolf of wall street yeah wolf of wall street
wolf w-o-o-f of w-a-w agree to disagree right no
wolf of wall street i usually love when the person who's wrong is like agree to disagree
like when they know they're well we agree to disagree no no that I don't agree to disagree. No, no, that actually, I need to win this argument. Well, crazy man Bruce Patterson doesn't bother, like I said.
Patterson, 34, has held the unofficial world record of six anally inserted cream eggs since
2010.
And as they say here on this next sentence, somebody call the Guinness Book of World Records
because it's been broken.
Wait, how would you like to verify that? His anus has been broken or the records?
The yolk has been broken.
The yolk's on him.
You know what? If you're going to stick some Cadbury
eggs up your ass, you're going to break a few yolks.
A few cream yolks are going
to be broken. And then he
dances over the children.
It's my
mission in life to make people realize this is not that dangerous.
Yeah, that's right.
He's like Jerry Kimball.
He's the Jerry Kimball of anal eggs.
But on Good Friday, everything changed.
He stepped things up, that's Bruce Patterson, breaking his own record by lodging more in
his rectal cavity.
He must really enjoy it, they write here.
I'm going to ask you guys.
How many more?
Let the games continue.
Oh, shit.
Let the games continue.
The record was six?
The record was six.
He has broken his own record.
He's broken his own record.
I'm going to start.
Now, Doug, you're the guest.
You can decide if you want to go first or last.
How big are these?
Are they a fist?
They're about like that.
No, they're this.
They're about like that.
Like a quarter or a half dollar size.
They're probably like two inches by an inch and a half circumference.
They're like a golf ball.
And there's a prize inside.
Maybe two by two.
Like an oblong golf ball.
Okay.
Is it closest without going over?
It's closest, period.
Period.
You can be over, you can be under.
You are the guest.
You can decide if you want to go first or last.
I'm going to go first.
Okay, here you go.
He went for 10 eggs.
10 eggs. 10 eggs.
You can just see him be like...
Doug took that so seriously.
He went for 10 eggs.
This is why Doug's movie is so great, because the games, we end up...
No, it gets real.
Yes.
Shit gets real.
It is so real.
Well, that's what you also said about the show, is that real stuff is happening.
You are presiding over real cases.
These aren't made up, so there is real stuff.
And do your verdicts hold up in a court of law?
They all agree to it, right, Doug?
Yeah, they have to agree to it ahead of time
that whatever I say stands.
Is the final, right.
That's the decision.
And then you come in six months afterwards
and check it all out.
You should do that.
I can't wait till you do follow-ups.
I do follow-up visits.
How are you guys doing? Listen, I was high when I made that decision. I can't wait till you do follow-up. I do follow-up visits. How are you guys doing?
Listen, I was high when I made that decision.
I feel very differently now.
I hope it didn't ruin your lives.
In the light of day, I see how wrong I was, but how funny it was.
But how are you guys doing?
What is happening with you?
Before we go to you guys' guesses, I like Doug's logic for 10, because you feel like
Bruce Patterson really wants double digits.
Also, he's like, I can't just break the record
at 7. By the way, if you want a double digit,
stick two fingers in your ass.
Once you're sticking
more in there, I think 3 seems like
a reasonable number. Don't they start melting
though? I think they're wrapped.
But they still are going to melt.
They're going to melt in the wrapper.
98 degrees. No, I bet they're
unwrapped because then you don't they will, you can break them down.
Yeah.
Your body, they'll just come out.
98 degrees.
They'll melt and come out.
Inside your body should be around 100 degrees.
The band, 98 degrees?
All right.
I'm going to say.
The cliché is just up there singing.
I'm going to say 12.
I'm not trying to cut off what Doug had.
You're trying to say he doubled it.
I think doubling it was a goal of his.
I think he had eight stuck in there. Eight? trying to say he doubled it. I think doubling it was a goal of his. I think he had
eight stuck in there. Eight? Yeah, because
he said sevens. Look,
if we learn anything from Dick Van
Patten, it's that
eight is enough.
Thank you, Doug. I was going to say that
Doug is not.
Bruce Patterson stepped things up
by lodging
nine Cadbury eggs.
Whoa!
Split the diff.
Split the diff.
There's a tie between you two.
Split the diff.
Wow.
One and a half.
What a fun game.
The proud singleton beamed last night.
This is Bruce Patterson's quote.
I'm having some difficulty sitting down, and I'll be shitting fondant for a week,
but I know the record is secure for years to come.
Didn't Winston Churchill say that famously?
I think it is a quote.
He then went on to say,
I'm known as Chorley's,
I think that's his hometown,
I'm known as Chorley's eggs up the ass man,
and you can't buy an accolade like that.
So what you're saying is,
Chorley's,
get people to call you that.
And by the way,
what's ironic is no amount of money can Charlie's can't get people to call you that. And by the way, what's ironic is,
no amount of money
can get people
to stop calling you
that either.
I want to go to that town
and yell at this
at him all the time.
So what you're saying is,
Charlie's isn't that creative
with their nickname.
Oh, man.
No, Charlie's
eggs up the ass, man.
There's that eggs
up the ass, man.
There he is. From where? From Charlie's. Oh. That's the Charlie's Eggs Up the Ass Man. There's that Eggs Up the Ass Man. There he is.
From where?
From Charlie's.
Oh.
That's the Charlie's Eggs Up the Ass Man, not to be confused.
Those are our stories.
He's got an E and a U and a T and an A on his chest.
I mean, what does he do next year?
That's my question.
I feel like he's going to have to stuff a whole chocolate cake up there.
Chocolate Twizzlers?
Or he'll just go for more eggs.
At what point do you damage your, like, what is the next three shits of his look like?
He's got the best smelling bathroom in town.
It's so sweet.
You know what?
This bathroom smells like Easter.
Right.
Just a little bit like Easter.
And like Easter, he's going to have to rise from the dead three days later.
It takes him three days to actually rise from the dead.
He said he can't sit down for three days.
Final score, one and a half Randy, half Doug.
Zero me.
I know.
That's all right.
I can live with it.
I didn't know we were keeping track of points.
Well, we're really not.
I've never done that before.
It's just because of the split.
I did.
I went for it today.
It's some people town.
There are no rules.
There are no rules.
There ain't be rules.
There ain't be no rules in here.
No.
All right.
Before we get out of here, we got a voicemail.
Listen, we just talked about eggs being jammed up someone's ass.
We talked about snakes, unleashed snakes in South Dakota in parks.
And two guys having sex at the top of the Capitol.
In Wisconsin.
Or in Tallahassee.
In Tallahassee.
And not getting busted for
it.
Right.
What is more American than all of that?
No, that is the most American.
I mean, if you try and get more American, I don't know what.
And so we actually got a voicemail from the great Ira Glass.
Who purports to report on this American life.
But I think we might have peeled back a layer
that he hasn't seen.
Anyway, take a listen.
Hey, everybody.
It's Ira.
On today's Dumb People Town,
we talked about what are you into?
What are your things?
What do you like to do?
Maybe it's a little bit different.
Maybe it's something specific to you.
Are you into snakes?
Maybe you're into having sex in weird places.
It could be you like to stick things up your ass.
I would like to say that on today's episode, we have an edited version.
If you do not like to hear dirty words, you can find that over on our dumbpeopletown.com website.
But that's what we're going to talk about today.
Who are you into?
Where are you doing it?
And where do you put it?
From W-F-E-R-A-L, Farrell, and This American Life, it's Dumb People Town.
I'm Ira Glass.
Thanks for staying with us.
He introed.
I know.
That's what a weird message to leave for somebody.
At the end of a show.
Just wrapping up a show.
But almost with an intro type, like we were heading into the show.
I know.
Or maybe that's the only way he can do it.
That's how he communicates.
That's really interesting.
I wonder if he does that with all of his voicemail messages.
He gives a voicemail message like, here's what we're going to talk about today.
In our voicemail today.
Are we going to dinner?
I love it.
I love it.
Well, there you go.
That's a show.
