Here in Laurel Canyon
I had one in my sink once
I went into my sink to brush my teeth
At ten at night
And it was in the bottom of my sink
And I'm like how did it first get up on my counter?
What'd you do?
I just turned on the tap and sent it for an eternal dip.
Ah, that's smart.

do you believe

stand up
I'm sure you
encounter
some very stupid
people
it is
it's getting but it's people it is it's getting
but it's weird to me
it's getting dumber
and smarter at the same time
a little bit
they're like two rocket ships
going up
at the exact same velocity
and speed
the dumb ones
a little louder
maybe
maybe
there's a lot of dumbness
going on
yeah
so we try and
at least figure out
why it's happening
and what's going on
by our fans
send us stories
Dan gets them the three of us have no idea what's going on we haven't heard of the it's happening and what's going on by our fans. Send a stories. Dan gets them.
We,
the three of us have no idea what's going on.
We haven't heard of this.
Dan barely knows what's going on.
Very dumb.
Do you think he's part of the Dom?
I'm uninformed.
He's part of uninformed.
He's part of the solution.
Is the Christian name for Dom.
Oh shit.
He is the,
he is brilliantly uninformed.
Dan,
let's jump into a story.
You want to do it?
Yeah.
Okay.
Sent in by Andrea Westaway at A Westaway.
I'm a Westaway Points member.
Oh, you are?

Thank you
Andrea West away sent this in
Thank you Andrea
Alright let's do it
Kat and Rod Gordon
Is there people?
Yep
Okay
They checked into their Edmonton Airbnb on Sunday before going to spend time with family.
Now, where in Canada did you grow up?
Toronto, but I know Edmonton well.
Who is traveling to Edmonton and staying at an Airbnb in Edmonton?
Well, Wayne Gretzky would be because he was on the Edmonton Oilers.
He won the Stanley Cup four times.
Yari Curry.
Circle gets a square. Circle gets a square.
Circle gets a square.
I'm staying at Grant Fuhrer's Airbnb.
Sweet lettuce leaves.
Thank you.
Unbelievable.
Top shelf. Solid cookie jar.
Thank you.
All right.
So they're staying at the Airbnb in Edmonton.
Yeah.
They checked in on Sunday
before going to spend time with their family.
But, as there always is in Dump People Town, but when the Vancouver Island couple returned
later that evening, they were met with the sounds of heavy metal blaring from the unit
and their bags unpacked.
That could be anywhere in Canada, by the way.
Heavy metal blaring from the unit.
That was in memory of Rob Ford.
Am I right?
Of 100%.
Because his penis
would play heavy metal music rob ford yes you can get heavy met only two stations heavy metal
and heavy christian classic rock and i stress for rob ford the word heavy okay may he rest in peace
rob ford was a metaphor for canada all right big white a lot of open spaces yeah and now very cold and yeah and
beautiful powder that's right a lot of great powder a lot of unbelievable white powder
surrounding him i seriously could watch rob ford walking into a camera like a million times yeah he
was great around a hallway right into a camera who is more more of a national Canadian treasure, Rob Ford or Terry Fox?
Ooh.
Who had trouble walking long distances?
Probably Ford, yeah. I think Terry
made it across the country. Ford
barely made it to the buffet line.
Okay, so they come back.
Here's my problem with that sentence, though. They come back, and they're
met with heavy metal sounds blaring from the
unit, and their bags unpacked, which sounds blaring from the unit, and their
bag's unpacked, which means-
Someone came into the-
No, think about them.
They got to the place they are not familiar with, heard heavy metal music coming out of
it, and then went inside to find everything unpacked.
I'm not going in.
You don't go towards the heavy metal music.
It's a home invasion by a garage band, is what it sounds like.
They own it now. Leave them there. That's their band is what it sounds like. They own it now.
Leave them there.
That's their Airbnb.
Their stuff.
They live here now.
Right.
Or you call the police.
At least they unpack their stuff.
So these are people who love heavy metal music
but don't like living out of a suitcase.
Connie, could you throw on some Danzig
and help me unpack these pants?
My, oh, my, oh.
I can't wait till the comments that's technically not heavy metal
bro that song is okay according to cat who posted about the bizarre incident on facebook which I
guess is a thing people use people you said a man and woman had somehow managed to break into the
in downtown edmonton where they spent a few hours between 5 and 9 30 p.m quote listening
to death metal smoking drinking and trying on our clothing shoes and jewelry i kind of like these
people wow what do you want to do tonight honey let's get drunk let's break into an airbnb trying
some clothes smoke a little bit a little bit put that we love. And I need to put on someone else's shoes just to get in the mood.
Oh, God.
Do people leave their clothes at Airbnbs?
They must have gone there.
I think these people showed up, dropped off their luggage, and then went to go hang out with family.
Yeah, we're late to go see this family.
We'll unpack later.
What's the worst that's going to happen?
A man and woman are going to come in here and listen to some Slipknot, and you know the husband was like, let's put the stuff away before we go see your family.
And the wife is like, no, they're expecting us now.
We got to go right now.
And he's like, we can put the stuff away.
And she's like, honey, we got to go right now.
And he's like, what's the difference?
They can wait 10 minutes.
I'd like to get my stuff into a dresser.
And I hope these two little metal trolls were outside the window and were like,
let's unpack it for them.
Let's put on Pantera and unpack it for them.
Can you imagine walking into that?
Or just like your setup?
Because some comedy clubs will put you, like Denver put you up in a very nice loft down by Comedy Works.
And the Comedy Condos and whatnot.
And you just walk in and there's just
other people there wearing your clothes and play wearing your clothes is such an intimate wearing
my clothes i'd be mad yeah i'd very harlan williams flannel you see like some gal coming
out in one of those in college i i stayed at i rented a room at a family's house, and I'll never forget one day the son came home, and I saw him in the living room, and I said, how you doing, bro?
And he's like, great.
I hope you don't mind.
I borrowed your cowboy boots.
And I looked down.
He was wearing my boots.
Without asking?
Yeah.
I was just like, okay, bro.
You're like, I do mind.
No, I'd say, I bet you hope that.
Yeah.
I bet you've hoped that all day.
And I wouldn't mind. I hoped you didn't do that. It must be nice to hope for things. Yeah. What, I'd say, I bet you hope that. Yeah. I bet you've hoped that all day that I wouldn't mind.
It must be nice to hope for things.
What do I hope for?
I hope you have respect.
I hope you have that.
I hope you get curbed like that guy in American History
No. Jason.
Why am I being so scorpion?
R.I.P. I killed a scorpion
in my house. Come at me
in my cowboy boots, bro.
Jay's like a sink scorpion.
How big was your scorpion
that you killed?
They're small, right?
The Laurel Canyon ones
are small.
Laurel Canyon scorpions.
How big was yours
in the sink?
They're like small.
They're like
Joni Mitchell small.
You guys both doing
finger gestures
on the podcast.
Joni Mitchell small
in the canyon.
So it was a little mystical too.
Yeah, of course.
So they smoked,
they drank,
they listened to some death metal.
I'm going to say they fooled around too.
They tried on clothing, shoes, and jewelry.
Do you like this watch, babe?
What? I can't hear you.
Slayer.
Enter Sandman.
So wait, I'm confused. Were these guys
playing instruments or were they just playing
music?
I thought they were playing metal.
That would be amazing.
To make matters weirder,
the pair also unpacked Kat and Rod's
toiletries and washed their
own clothes in the washing machine.
Now this is a poorly written sentence.
I don't know if they're saying that the intruders
washed their clothes in the washing machine
or the intruders washed Kat and Rod's
clothes. I think the reason why they're wearing Kat and Rod's clothing is because they threw their clothes in the washing machine or the intruders washed Cat and Rod's clothing? I think the reason why they're wearing
Cat and Rod's clothing is because they threw
their clothes into the washer.
And that's you never trust a cat
in Rod's clothing.
I've always said that.
I've always said that and let's just understand.
I wonder, did anyone look to see if Iron Maiden's
tour bus was parked on the street?
Because then they're just on brand.
They're like metal. Stone metal
guys that wandered into a house. And they went
check the time. Was it two minutes to midnight?
Two minutes
to midnight.
That was perfect. Thank you. Appreciate that.
Cat and Rod's toiletries and they washed their
clothes in the washing machine, which
caused flooding in part of the suite.
So they're so metal, they don't even know
how to do laundry.
They can't do any.
They must have put a ton of clothes in there because it floods when it's too much in there.
Right.
It can also flood if you don't shut the door right.
I mean, there's a bunch of ways.
Does it turn off?
I don't know.
Or if you have sand in your pockets,
like if you're on a sand dune,
maybe with Rebel Wilson or something.
Okay, now we're back there. And then you clog the filters and you overflow.
That's what happens. She was your sink scorpion, let's just be honest. She got you.
She got me, kid. The strangers
left the unit in cat and rods clothes, but left behind their
own shoes on a shoe rack, jackets in a closet, and a large
bowl of cigarettes sitting on
a table.
I don't know if they were smoked or unsmoked.
I hope unsmoked, like just for company.
The unpacking of the toiletries is a complete and utter waste of time.
A hundred percent.
You know what I mean?
Like, they're like, I don't understand.
That's the move where you're like, I don't know what these guys want from us.
They were looking for pills, bro.
They're rockers.
They're looking for uppers, downers.
Is there a bowl for our cigarettes?
I need a cigarette bowl.
Yeah.
Who puts cigarettes in a bowl?
Didn't that used to be a thing back in the 60s that you would have a bowl or like a little case of cigarettes just sitting on the coffee table for company when they come over?
Yeah, a bowl of cigarettes.
Yeah, a cigarette bowl.
A candy bowl.
Kids, go to the cigarette bowl and pick out two.
Two.
You each get two.
You eat.
out two. You each get two. That was, by the way,
when I drove up to
Tahoe with my family
and we stopped at a gas station.
It was early in the morning. I'm like,
you guys can pick two of whatever you want.
Now, if they would have picked cigarettes,
they would have had to start smoking. My son eats
Takis. I'm like, come on, man.
Never had a Taki? Just learned
what a Takis were a month ago
from my nephew. They're like super hot Cheetos.
They're like flaming Cheetos that are smooth.
What if they pick breasts?
Is that considered like two? You get two sets of breasts.
Two sets of breasts.
That's four.
It's like if you'd gone ho-hos, you get three.
You get three ho-hos.
If you had gone for the ho-hos, they'd come in a set.
Do they come in three?
Yeah.
Ho-hos are three.
I thought they were one.
Two vertical, one horizontal.
So if your son asked for...
My two daughters asked.
If your two daughters asked for breasts, they'd get four.
If each of them asked for breasts, we got eight.
We got eight breasts driving up to town.
Dan, I don't like it when people hashtag their posts, no ho-ho.
I don't like that.
Really?
I don't like that.
I think that's insensitive.
Insensitive to prostitutes.
Am I wrong in this?
You guys might know.
Insensitive to prostitutes.
Twin prostitutes. The old wrong in this? You guys might know. Insensitive to prostitutes. Twin prostitutes.
The old school ashtrays.
Yeah.
They would have like divots all the way around and then like the ashtray in the center.
Wasn't that so that you could line it with cigarettes all the way around like a tray of hors d'oeuvres in the 50s?
No, no, no.
So you could put it down while it was still smoking.
Having conversation so it's still lit.
And it still stays lit.
I thought you could, it's like a meat tray, but with cancer.
No, it was.
Give it was to place it, and then you could go to sleep.
This is like, we're going to have a round table discussion, and everyone's going to be smoking.
We need a slot for everyone to put their cigarettes in.
Well, they left their jackets in the closet.
You remember those days?
I remember my grandfather had one of those ashtrays.
Really?
And just everyone.
I remember the McDonald's gold ashtrays.
Do you remember those?
They were like very flimsy.
In the table?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they had the logo stamped in the bottom.
Think of us when you die.
Jackets in the closet and a large bowl of cigarettes sitting on a table.
This is my favorite part.
They also left a note which read, quote,
We are here.
Today is the best of the rest of our lives.
So this isn't the best day they've ever had.
This is the best day they'll have from here forward.
And we are here.
We are here.
Yes.
We are here.
Today is the best of the rest of our lives.
Worst graduation speech ever.
Today is the greatest day we'll ever know.
They quoted this wrong.
It does say best day.
I can see it. Oh, I'm say best day. I can see it.
Oh, I'm hitting the mic.
I can see the pictures.
We are here.
Today is the best day of the rest of our lives.
And then they both signed it.
I'm going to show you guys this picture.
There's also some other writing.
But you know the phrase, Harlan, when someone says,
today is the first day of the rest of your life.
Right.
Right.
That to me is really nondescript.
No, it just means that you're starting a new path. But every day is the first day of the rest of your life. Right. Right. That to me is really nondescript. No, it just means that like you're starting a new path.
But every day is the first day of the rest of your life.
And then there's the saying I've always said to you two guys,
today is the first day of the rest of your wife.
Yes.
Which I never understood that.
I never got that.
Because you're not married.
I am married.
The first day of the rest of your wife.
Yeah.
I am married.
The first day of the rest of your wife.
By the way, could I just say,
these people with the names Cat and Rod,
they deserve everything they got.
I hope there's a murder at the end of this story.
Oh, come on.
They broke in, played music,
and then bludgeoned them with a guitar.
Cat and Rod, they do sound like the companion couple to Julia Louis-Dreyfus
and her husband's character in National Lampoon's
Christmas Vacation. Those two
people who live next door were just insufferable.
Yeah, this is the same version of those.
It sounds like something you'd buy at
Petco if a stray
walked into your house and was hiding
behind the dryer. Do we need to get the
cat and rod? Get the cat rod.
Get that little pussy out of here.
Well, should we whip it?
I don't understand.
I was just wondering.
It's like a cattle prod. Cat and rod.
Okay, there is other
writing. I'm going to show you guys this photo.
This is what they left. It's their shoes.
It's also the
coats that are hung up and you can see the note that they left, which's their shoes. It's also the coats that are hung up.
And you can see the note that they left,
which is on some stationery that says inclusive innovation.
Inclusive innovation sounds like the most nondescript company ever.
I know.
I agree.
If you told me they created the first electric car, I'd believe you.
Inclusive innovation.
Where do you work?
Inclusive innovation.
Do you know what you do there?
I know.
I have no idea.
I just know I have not been fired. Data processing. We do cataloging? Inclusive Innovation. Do you know what you do there? I know. I have no idea. I do data processing.
We do cataloging of WeWork spaces.
What?
It's Inclusive Innovation.
One of the things I know that they also wrote on this,
they dated it July 28th, 2019.
Okay.
Then they wrote XOXOXO and thanks, I don't know.
They were the nicest metal loving
intruders
you could ever
hope for
pill looking
for people
maybe they were
a Christian metal band
yes
Christian metal
is a thing
they left a note
maybe there was
some food in the oven
may God bless you
a freshly washed
homeless guy
in the tub
I was gonna say
I hope when they write
we are here
they mean
we're still in this yeah we're still here yes find us we're in it with you yeah uh the disturbing
incident is under investigation by the edmonton police in an emailed statement to black press
media a spokesman with the detachment confirmed that officers responded to reports of a break
and enter at the suite but there isn't much more information to add at this time.
Is Black Press Media like media just for black people, or is it?
I don't know.
Black Press is the name of the press.
Black Press Media.
By the way, we're here, we're clear.
Get used to it is what Scientologists say.
Oh, they do?
That's what they're going for.
Today is the first day of the rest of your wife.
I'm still trying to figure it out.
No surveillance footage has been released publicly as of Friday afternoon.
So maybe privately.
Kat said, and we all love Kat.
She posted about the incident online along with the photos of the items left behind in hopes that someone recognizes them.
Not the people because we can't see them, but the items or the handwriting and can lead police to the culprits.
Thanks to everyone who has reached out to assist us, she wrote.
We truly appreciate the outpouring of concern.
Anyone with information.
So what, they showed up and then all of a sudden these guys left?
Yeah, but they unpacked their clothes.
They unpacked their toiletries.
I think they were gone when they got there.
Oh, but how do they know they were wearing their clothes?
Because their clothes are gone.
Got it.
New shoes are in the rack.
Got it.
There's a note with XOXO on it.
Dan, I now understand what happened.
And a dead guy in the bathtub.
What?
They didn't cover that, but I feel it.
Scorpion in the sink.
What was the source of the music?
Did they leave a cassette or something?
Or was it a radio station?
In Edmonton, there are at least three heavy metal stations at all times.
You're right.
Just turn the radio and just spin the dial. You'll hit heavy metal. Rush comes times. You're right. Turn the radio and just spin the dial.
Rush comes on in Edmonton
and people are like, who turned on this
soft rock station?
If anyone of our listeners wants to get on this case,
they can contact the Edmonton police with information
at 780-423-4567.
And correct me if I'm wrong,
I've never been to Edmonton, but the
entire Edmonton police department is
mounted on moose.
Is that correct?
Is that a correct statement?
Caribou.
Caribou.
Moose is in Calgary.
Why do I always make that mistake?
You always mix it up, but that's okay.
It's confusing.
All right.
Well, there's one story down in the book.
There it is.

Yeah.
You said you wanted all the skin back, right?
Right. You wanted a lot of tucking a lot of tightening up
what head are we talking about here could you imagine you're going for botox and you get snipped
so botox is where they and again inject botulism botulism and bacteria into a certain part of your
and usually just your face to freeze your head and fill in cracks.

Okay.
Fair enough.
Do you know anyone who had bow ties?
I don't know anyone who's ever
gotten Botox. I'm sure we do.
Yes, we do. They're great to
have sex with because when they orgasm, it
just looks like they're staring at a stop sign.
Yes. There's no expression.
So normal.
That might just be with you, Harlan.
Probably right.
How was your date, Harlan? Well,
I can tell you this. She had Botox.
She wouldn't admit to it, but it was pretty obvious.
I don't think so.
It wasn't the Botox.
It was the fact she was circumcised.
Hey!
What?
That would be a fun surprise.
A man circumcised by mistake after going to a hospital for a procedure involving Botox
has been handed a compensation by the NHS.
That is, okay.
So if you go in for Botox and they give you a, like a cheek lift or something like that,
that I can understand.
We're supposed to do something in this area.
What did he say he wanted?
You know.
We're running a special today.
This guy also has a name that sounds like your dad's work friend who let you drive his car.
Too young.
You were 13.
Way too young.
Yes.
And he was like, you can move it.
You want to move it?
His name is...
Let me see if I can guess.
Mike Radford.
You're in the wheelhouse.
You're in the...
Ready?
What's the guy's name?
Terry Brazer.
Just on name alone, he will let you have a sip of his beer terry stop oh i'm

dairy queen's part of that family he's like that, that's what I do. I toast it up.
I need to get some Botox immediately.
Dairy Brazier.
What did that mean, though, at Dairy Queen?
Did that mean grill it or flavor it?
I feel like they put it in a bra and let it sit there for a brazier.
Oh, it's a Dairy Queen brazier.
Are they braised the meat?
We were pronouncing it wrong.
Braised chicken?
Braised the meat.
They're braised.
How do you like your hamburger? A broasted would be. Yeah, how would you like your hamburger? Broasted or braised the meat? We were pronouncing it wrong. Braised chicken? Braised the meat. They're braised. How do you like your hamburger?
A broasted would be.
Yeah.
How would you like your hamburger?
Broasted?
Or braised?
Braised.
I'd like it tenderized by areola.
Please, Terry.
Go for it.
I am trying to braise a family over here, and I don't have a lot of money.
Cute.

Terry Brazier

Great wedding date
Yep

Royal infirmary
Mixed up his notes
Mr. Brazier
Call me Terry
Terry Brazier
My dad's Mr.
Yeah

This is England.
This is England.
So I don't care.
He wouldn't be an American guy. To me, he's in Iowa.
Yeah.
Mr. Brazer claims he was so distracted chatting to the nurses.
You mean flirting with them and annoying them?
Yeah.
Right.
Sexually harassing them.
Right.
Claims he was so distracted chatting to nurses, he didn't realize he was getting a different
procedure until it was too late.
That's on him.
What could you...
You have to be anesthetized for that.
You have to be.
What would you be getting Botox that you would get a local in that area
that you don't realize your foreskin is being cut off?
That's not Botox.
That's Lotox.
Yep.
Also, no one double...
That's great.
Thank you.
At Sklar Brothers. Also, no one double- That's great. Thank you. Ants claw brothers.
Also, no one checks with you.
You know we're cutting your dick up today, right?
Yeah.
We're going to take this-
Yeah, whatever.
Wait, what?
No.
I'm sorry.
I'm just talking to these ladies.
Terry Brazer here.
Great wedding date.
He just thought that he was getting lucky.
He thought, okay, I'll go in and get my face done.
And the nurse starts undone his pants.
Oh, it's this type of a heart.
She's horny.
This is like my porno fantasy.
Unless you're in a car accident, just a helpful rule to everybody who can hear my voice,
you'll always be the one undoing your pants.
That's right.
Unless you're in a car accident, no one else should be undoing your pants.
Unless you're Robert Kraft, no one else is undoing your pants.
This is a lesson.
I love his cheese.
This is a lesson to you right now.
Do not get any surgical procedures at the Bunny Ranch in Nevada.
I'm warning you in advance.
Why?
Because you go in for Botox and then they cut off a little slice.
What if I want to get my eyes straightened?
Well, that's your call.
Lamar Odom tried that and look what happened to him.
Speaking to the Daily Star, he said, quote,
I went in the surgery for some Botox, and they ended up circumcising me.
I need more emotion from you, Terry.
Words that you never thought you'd ever say in your life.
There should be three F-bombs in that statement.
But, Terry, how do you feel about it?
That's just what happened.
I'm telling you.
Hey, I just state the facts.
Great wedding date.
None of us are making him English, and I love it.
Terry Brazier.
They didn't know what to say when they found out they'd done it.
They said they can't send me back to the ward and needed to talk to me.
So they came in and were like, can we talk to you?
Here's the deal.
We did something really nice for you that you didn't know was going to happen.
Here's my thing.
You are now Jewish.
If I'm in that part of that medical staff, I'm like, guys, he doesn't even realize we cut his dick.
I know.
He's never going to realize that we cut his dick.
He will realize it.
Just leave it.
Tell him that's what Botox is.
Yes, tell him that's part of the Botox process.
It's a new procedure.
He didn't care when we were doing it.
Two weeks later, he's not going to know at all.
Leave it.
That's information he doesn't
was this at a hospital yes okay because i was thinking like when does a botox clinic and a
circumcision ever cross well i think you go to acute care for both they're just most seats sit
straight up and they don't lean back this is they offer this at walgreens uh you want your flu shot
and your botox and your circumcision? You gotta sit
in that chair over there. You should never say I got circumcised at
Pearl Vision Center. That's never
a good thing. The nurse
was at the side of me and we were talking
so I didn't know what was going on.
Quote, it was a real surprise.
This is on you.
This is on you as much as it is on them, Terry.
I don't like what the hospital did
but I think Terry Brazier could have been a little.
This should be a moment where the hospital says, look, we use Terry as an example that patients need to pay attention.
They need to advocate for themselves.
We are setting this as the chance for you to say, look, this story is going out there so that you need to ask questions.
I'm sorry, Terry.
If they cut the whole dick off he becomes terry queen brazier
you know at one point too he was like the guys are gonna love this like he just kept thinking
i've got a story oh god terry if you talk if you're going in for botox you are telling as a
as a man i'm just gonna say it you're a vein yeah and he maybe said i'm i'm a mainly vain guy and they heard main vein and they went down
i don't know i'm trying to figure out how they would doctors love slang andrew furlong medical
director of the university hospital so he won't be for long i'll tell you that he will not be for
long that's right we remain deeply and genuinely sorry that this mistake occurred. And I would like to take this opportunity to once again apologize to Mr. Terry Brazier.
I hope he in the background is like, no, I'm not having it.
Wait, wait.
He should be happy that they got rid of that nasty flap of elephant skin.
That's right.
And that they didn't inject his wiener with Botox because he would never have any sensation in it again.
So he came out ahead, no pun intended.
Thank you.
Come out ahead. Thank you.
We take events like this very seriously.
How many do you have, doctor?
Do events like this happen all the time?
Check our calendar.
We got nine events like this every year.
We carried out a thorough investigation at the time to ensure that we
learned from this incident and
we do all we can to avoid
it happening again. While money can
never undo what happened, we hope
that this payment provides some compensation.
They did not give him a third
nipple. Like Harlan said, they actually did
something that is helpful for this guy. So
I don't think they need to apologize that much.
No. We have two things here.
He should leave them a tip.
Just that.
At HarlanWilliams.com.
We're going to have two little fun guessing games
at the end of this. I can't wait. How much money
do you think they compensated him,
gave him, for making this
mistake? For giving him a
not required or requested pound.
American dollars or British pounds? I've converted it to American dollars.
Okay, so Harlan, do you want to go first, second, or third in guessing?
I would say they gave him, I don't know, a grand for every wrinkle, so 40 grand.
Okay.
At most, $2,000.
$2,000.
I think they gave him like $18,000.
Okay.
40, 18, 2.
Okay.
First of our two fun guessing games
is what was the compensation?
And the answer is, get your answers at
NowTownies. Play along with us because
the compensation given to Terry
Brazer
for his brazen
act of circumcision. Yeah.
His dick plastic surgery that he didn't
know was happening. The amount of money
they gave him was
$24,510. Wow!
Take that. Thank you.
It's a good...
They should, like, flap at hospital
causes, you know, like that's...
We'll get out of here on this. How old
is Terry Brazier?
How old do you think a guy is that went in
for a procedure to get Botox,
got circumcised, didn't realize it was happening?
62.
62 from Harlan.
I say 56.
56 from Randy Sklar.
Jason?
47.
47 years old.
None of you are exactly right.
Terry Brazier, the man who will talk to a nurse while you cut his penis.
Yep.
And will not be distracted.
Right.
Is 70 years old.
Wow, Harlan knew.
Yeah, Harlan knew.
I know old meat.
Yeah.
I know old meat.
You know old meat?
I know old meat when I've seen it.
Now, we got a thing here where I think our audience is going to want to know.
We got five guys in a room here, and we got to tell them Who of us are circumcised
So all of us
Oh we're all mushroom cappers
There we go
I wouldn't want one
I went in to get Botox last year
And the next thing
I know they cut my penis
So this happened to me
I went in to get Botox when I was eight days old
And they gave me a circumcision
I went in to get Botox when I was eight days old, and they gave me a circumcision.
I went in to get Botox two months ago, and they added some skin.
Why would they do that? That's a reverse thing.
It's a reverse circumcision.
They put an extra flap on there.
An extra flap so I could grasp peanuts.
Stop it.
What?
Yeah.
I saw that on Spade's show when the playmate went to pose with the elephant and the elephant just like.
Went after her.
Like the trunk groped the hell out of this woman.
Oh, really?
It was insane.
I was like, wait a minute.
This has to happen more often.
Like that elephants are.
Elephants and dolphins, man.
No boundaries.
No boundaries ever.
All right.
Chew on that.
What's the.
Give me a little tease of what we have for the last story, Dan.
A man's got something
wrong with his eye. Okay, I love it.
Harlan Williams is with us. We'll be back
with more Dumb People Town and a man who's got
something wrong with his eye. Stay with us.
Stick around, make a sound.
There's more Dumb People Town.
Hey guys, welcome back to Dumb People Town.
And by the way, if you listen to this show and you enjoy it,
we do another show called View from the Cheap Seats,
sports, comedy, indie rock.
Dan does another show on this network as well called Pen Pals.
Yep.
Subscribe to those.
Me and Rory Scovel.
It's a lot of fun.
We want to get you guys involved in that stuff as well.
All right, Dan, last story.
Let's take a song, brother.
Okay.
Ready? Yep. Sent in by Liz Haggerty, atty at liz hagerty liz i love you out there thank you
thank you the centers for disease control and prevention warn people to check under their arms
around their ears and even inside their belly button for ticks
you should have an idea where this is going.
Yeah.
The agency may have to add another especially cringeworthy tick harbor to the list.
Nope.
The eyeball.
What?
Lyme disease.
A Kentucky man says he went to the doctor for an eye irritation and found out it was
caused by one of the eight-legged blood-sucking critters.
Wow.
Whoa.
On your eye.
I hate ticks.
On your eye. Ticks hate ticks. On your eye.
Ticks.
What do ticks do?
Ticks are the worst.
You can pull it off of your body
and the head stays in
still sucking your blood.
So here's the deal.
I saw bats flying around
when I was up in Northern California
and I'm like,
ooh, this is scary.
But then you realize
bats eat mosquitoes.
Bring those bats on.
That's why you hang around
that bridge in Austin, you will not get
bitten by this. You'll never get bitten because the bats fly
around. So I was like, bats, they're doing their job.
What does a tick do?
Just ruins your life. What does a wasp
do? What does a mosquito do?
Wasps pollinate flowers.
Do they? They do. They do not.
You know why I know? Because my son is
so terrified of wasps. He said,
Dad, what do they do? We need to get rid of them from the earth.
I said, let's Google it.
We Googled it, and it said they pollinate flowers just like bees do,
and you can't hate on wasps.
But you can hate on mosquitoes and ticks.
Yeah, those are assholes.
Those guys are the worst.
Have you ever met a tick that you're like, oh, thank God.
Thank God you're here.
I have a tick.
Sometimes you pull them off, and and they got such a strong grip.
If the head doesn't come off, they'll pull a little chunk of your skin right off.
I've never had that happen before.
Dig in.
They get in there, man.
You know, you can use toothpaste on them because I used to be a lumberjack.
So we used to get a lot of it.
Really?
Yeah.
We used to get a lot of our guys get ticks.
So you put menthol toothpaste on them and they
can't breathe so they back out or you
put vaseline some guys would burn them
with the end of cigarettes i haven't had
a tick since i was i think 18 or 19 i
was a grave our dog used to get them oh
yeah they don't affect like i don't
think animals get lyme disease no they
get it but i don't we know people who
had lyme who've had lyme disease it's, they don't. Humans get it, but I don't think... We know people who've had Lyme disease.
It's a terrible disease.
Yeah.
Puts you down.
It's horrible.
So a Kentucky man says he went to the doctor for an eye irritation and found out it was
caused by one of the eight-legged blood-sucking critters.
Never what you think.
You're never walking in going...
That has to be back in your eye, right?
Because wouldn't you...
See the tick?
See the tick?
Well, not only that, when they suck, their bodies expand like huge.
They go from completely flat to they become like a raindrop.
It's big.
When you see a tick, shake it.
Oh, cute.
Was that a cute break we just had?
Yeah, we just had one.
Did you love that every show? The cute had? Yeah, we just had one. We just had one. Did you get a cute break?
A cute break? I should have brought some cinnamon. Hey,
stop it. Cinnamon? You brought some
grape crush. An optometrist
numbed the eye. Oh, God.
And removed the tick. By the way,
the numbing of the eye is enough to make me
pass out. Because it's a needle
in the eye, right? How do you numb an eye?
You stick a gigantic horse needle in the eyeball.
Yeah.
He numbed the eye, then performed
a circumcision on the man.
No!
He didn't know what was happening.
His eyes are shut!
Razor, I barely know her.
An optometrist numbed the eye and removed
the tick with tweezers.
Floyd County resident
Chris Prater told the local news outlet.
That's who this happened to, I guess, Chris Prater.
Prater said he, quote, got scared a little bit
after the doctor told him the source of the irritation.
No shit.
Hey, by the way, if you're the doctor,
this is something you tell him afterwards.
As soon as you're done.
If I'm that guy, I'm like, we're going to pull it out.
Where do I start Googling places that don't have ticks?
And I'm like, I'm moving there.
So this never happens again.
Like if you have scorpions, you definitely have ticks.
So wait, so Harley, when you were a lumberjack, you dealt with those like widow maker, like the thing at the top of the tree that like, you know, is an old thing that it's going to come down.
And that was like the scariest thing in the world. Did tree that like, you know, is an old thing that it's going to come down and. Oh, yeah.
That was like the scariest thing in the world.
Did you ever see a tree fall on someone?
No, but well, I have a funny story.
I was on a trail once and I was sad, but it made me laugh.
There was a great big tree, like probably the circumference of a small pizza.
Wow.
And it was right across the trail.
We were walking and then I looked And it was right across the trail.
We were walking.
And then I looked and there was like big chunks of tree all around.
And a beaver had chewed the tree. And as I got close, I saw the half of a beaver sticking out from under the tree.
So the beaver dropped a tree on himself and killed himself.
But yes, I have seen like the tops of trees come down.
So they sometimes have like what is like a branch that is-
Spiky.
It's basically like a guillotine that can come down on the thing.
Or sometimes what happens is the top of a tree will rot and die.
And so the base looks solid.
And then when you start hammering the tree or cutting it, the top can actually come off
and fall down.
Was this your first job?
But was this a career you had before?
Were you doing comedy while you were living?
Did you know you were going to leave it eventually and pursue comedy?
Yeah, this was when I first got out of college.
That's what I did.
I did it for about five years.
Five years?
Yeah.
Where?
In what part? On the remote shores of lake superior on the east east and northern shores of lakes and we're
funny and doing comedy like things in your life i i was like the other guys in the camp would tell
me i was funny and one of the guys actually said to me once he goes you should be a stand-up
comedian and that that he doesn't know it but that actually started the wheels spinning a little bit really obscure amazing yeah yeah
harland just on the big lake they call gitche goomy and he's just wondering if he's gonna go
i mean so i i am fascinated by this so when you so you're you're logging you're on the remote
shores of how'd you wait how'd you end up being a logger? Or not a logger, a lumberjack.
Lumberjack.
So there was a program where I lived.
It was called the Junior Ranger Program where kids could go up for the summer and do this for like two months at these logging camps.
And then I did it and I loved it.
So then I got to go back as one of the guys who ran the camps.
So the foreman of the camp.
So we did fish and wildlife work, logging, timber, tree planting, everything.
Do you still like to go out fishing?
Oh, yeah.
I love it.
Where do you fish in Southern Cal?
I fished in some of the rivers and up at Mammoth.
I fly fished up at Mammoth.
What's the biggest fish you've ever caught?
You call it a polar muskie, right?
At my house in Florida on the wall,
I have a nine foot, 160 pound marlin that I caught.
No way!
In Cabo, yeah.
Oh my God.
How long did it take to reel it in?
Like two hours?
It took about maybe 45 minutes.
Nine feet.
Nine feet, yeah.
But I have to be honest, I'd never hooked into a fish that big before.
So after about 20 minutes, my right arm went numb.
Yeah.
And I had to ask the captain to come down and jump in.
So he went at it for about 15.
My arm came back.
But he was able, because he was experienced, he was able to, in that 15, reel it in probably an extra hour that would have been lost if I didn't.
He took it out off it.
So he expedited.
He cut some time, and then when my arm came back, I got back on it and then brought it in.
That's unbelievable.
It's pretty wild, yeah.
That is a humongous.
Did it jump out of the water?
Oh, yeah.
It jumped.
It did everything, man.
It was on the cusp of a hurricane.
Oh, God.
So there's a hurricane about 200 miles out, and the weather wasn't there yet, but the ocean had started rolling.
Oh, my God.
So I was supposed to go out for eight hours, and after about an hour and 10 minutes, the captain, we were rolling so high, we were like the only boat left out there.
He comes down.
He goes, sir, we've got to go back in.
And on the word in, you caught the fish.
The damn line just went.
And this thing was on.
And so here I was in this rolling chop, reeling up this monster.
It was pretty good.
I don't think the heavy stuff's going to come down for an hour.
We played through on this fish. It was pretty good. I don't think the heavy stuff's going to come down for an hour. We played through on this fish.
It was pretty wild.
Okay, so you're out of college, and you have not, at that point in your life, you're a lumberjack, and you have not even considered a life in comedy?
No.
No one in your family, no one you know is a comedian, so this is like a complete.
Yeah, I just, it's funny when that
kid said that i think it was my last year that i did it and one of the guys i worked with out at
the camp he he said oh you should i was being funny and he said you should do comedy and then
that i kind of went huh interesting you know and that's the first time i i think the seed was
planted where i thought i could maybe try that as a career or something. So you went back to Toronto or you were in Toronto at any time?
Yeah, after that, I ended up going back to Toronto.
And go to like Yuck Yucks and started doing-
Yeah, just started to do the amateur nights and stuff.
Who was doing- anybody that you still are friends with or-
Or who was like ahead and you're like, oh, I want to be like that person.
You know what I mean?
Well, you know, interesting enough, there's a guy on this season of america's got talent i don't know if you guys watch that
i haven't been but it was but there's a guy named greg morton who i started with no and he's he's
kind of been you know working in the clubs his whole career hoping for a big break and so he's
on this year and he's he's like killing it he's going right through the finals so it's really
exciting he was a guy i did my first night he was the other guy really and we became friends um but
it was funny because back then i was this was a club up in toronto and uh the owner kind of had
a good eye for comedians and so he met him yeah mark breslin so he was bringing up Bobcat Goldways. Not Terry Brazier.
Mark Breslin, for Christ's sake.
So he'd bring up Bobcat from Boston.
He brought up Bobcat and Sam Kinison.
And so I got to sit in this small little club and watch these guys just when Kinison was just before he had blown up.
Before the Rodney Dangerfield.
Yeah.
So I would sit there and watch this guy go nuts in this small little, and work on the same stage with them.
Like I'd go up with them or after them or before.
And I was like, I didn't know he was going to be a huge star.
That's crazy.
Do you remember any of your like earliest bits?
Oh, yeah.
Of what you were talking about on stage?
Oh, yeah.
Everything.
Really?
Yeah.
What was your first thing that you loved?
The first thing that hit hard and you're like, oh, I'm in this.
This is what I'm doing.
I think the first thing I did was That really hit
Is I used to do a joke
That my mother was so fat
She'd shave her legs
With a chainsaw
And then I'd do
The chainsaw noise
Because I used to do it
Out in the woods
Yeah
You brought your experience
You brought your experience
Back in
I did
So I'd do this
Really loud chainsaw noise
And it got a big laugh
That's so hilarious
That's awesome
And then your mother Did shave her legs With a chainsaw She did Technically she a big laugh. That's so hilarious.
And then your mother did shave her legs with a chainsaw.
She did.
Technically she did,
so it was true.
So, I mean, look,
what's funny is it's funny
because it's true.
That is amazing.
What an interesting story.
I love it.
All right, let's get back.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
All right, let's get back.
I'll reset where we are.
No problem at all.
Here we go.
Ready?
Yeah.
An optometrist numbed the eye
with tweezers,
as we've covered.
Yeah.
And then the Floyd County resident, Chris Prater, told the news outlet all this happened
to him.
He said, quote, he got scared a little bit when he told them the source of the irritation.
Right.
Randy, you've proved that you should do that after.
Yep.
Talk about it later.
Because they always say with doctors.
Show it to them after you've killed it.
Worry about what's happening with your doctor when they stop talking to you.
Like when they're like, hmm.
Hmm.
Hmm.
Yeah.
Then you're in trouble. That means they don't know how to break you the're in trouble when you're not getting information that's when it's bad right that's when it's
real bad the quieter the room the worse you're doing just like yeah yeah exactly true doctors
and comedy uh quote he says this is from uh chris prater i leaned around and looked at him, and I asked him if he was joking. No.
No.
And he said, no, you have a deer tick or some type of tick on your eye.
Oh, God.
Bro.
On your eye sounds worse than in your eye.
Yeah.
On your eye sounds like this is an issue now forever.
This is the part that creeps me out the most.
Okay.
Please.
As it came out, when the doctor removed the tick with the tweezers, it made, quote, a little popping sound.
What?
On your eye.
Like Rice Krispies?
Yes.
Yes.
Pop.
Yeah, just a little.
Just his claws coming out of your eyeball.
Oh.
I wonder if there's Rice Krispies, tick, tick, Rice Krispies squares.
You can make it.
If you got a whole bunch Of those ticks
Put them all in a square
Put them in a square
Marshmallows
Yeah
Harlan make the cereal
You want to see in the world
Yes
Go for it
Don't make the cereal
That you think you are
The tick made a popping sound
When it came out
Prater went home
With antibiotics
And steer
Steer
I'm good
Steroid drips
Drops
I hope they gave him
Ambien as well
Because he'll never be able to sleep
again. There it is. Prater first
noticed his eye issue after leaving Johnson
County, so he's blaming them.
This here is a Johnson County issue.
He was working for an electric
company removing a tree from
power lines. Look, he could
and his friend's like, you're funny.
Go do comedy. A safety
manager at his company examined
the eye he said and he tried without success to flush the irritation out so he had someone at
work look at it and of course those guys like run some water on and walk it off you're fine buddy
prater didn't want to go see a doctor and figured he could wait for the spot to go away guys don't
your vision if there's something slightly wrong with you Go to the hospital, period
Just do it
But if you go to the hospital
You could get circumcised
Maybe you need it
Quote, I know what's in your eye
Prater remembers the optometrist
I know what's in your eye
Was one of my favorite
Children's books
I was going to say Neve Campbell
Oh, I know what's in your eye I love that one of my favorite children's books. I was going to say Nev Campbell movies.
It's a great one.
I love that. Ticks are most active
from April till September, so
tick season, according to the CDC,
which warns they live in areas with grass, brush,
and trees. So find those areas that don't have
any of those, Jack. And make your
home on animals, too.
Camping, hunting, or just spending time in your
backyard could expose you to the pests.
Quote, some of the tiny animals,
relatives of spiders, attach and feed
on a host for less than an hour.
Others stay for days.
So, theoretically,
it could have just let itself go,
but then it still might have been in your eye.
Toothpaste.
You gotta put toothpaste in your eye.
Menthol toothpaste.
Like Aquafresh or something. The CDC says there. You got to put toothpaste in your eye. Menthol toothpaste. Like Aquafresh or
something. The CDC
says there's no need to panic. If you find
the insect on your skin, it says you
can remove them yourself with fine
tipped tweezers. But if it's in your
eye, I'm not doing that.
See, the problem with the
tweezer thing, though, is that they have such a
grip. If you do detach the head,
then you could potentially –
The body, the head could stay.
The head could stay in there.
So that's why if you put something on it that cuts off all the air –
What would you say you put on it?
Toothpaste or Vaseline.
Yeah, and then it creates a seal, right?
And they can't – they have no oxygen, so they have to back out.
Back it out.
That's lumberjack style.
And by the way, that is a situation if you're in a contract negotiation
and it's not working, you're like, that should be new terminology.
We've got to back the tick out of this one.
Do you want to hear a quick story that's creepier than the tick one?
Give it to our townies.
We'll leave on that.
You go.
This is a real one.
I love your real ones.
When I worked up north, we used to, we were on a lake and we'd, you know, a lot of the rivers and systems we'd go on.
You got leeches, you know, you get these big leeches.
They're probably about three inches long.
Wow.
And then there's a different species of leech.
They're gray and they mostly stay on the bottom, like stuck to rocks.
They're very flat and they're hard to pull off,
but they're, they're, they're shorter and they're
thinner and they, they stick to the, so they
rarely get on you.
And so we were swimming once and so I used to
get them and they're, they're hard to kill.
They're so rubbery, like you can't kill them.
So I just, this is going to sound gross, but I
got to a place where I'd just grab them.
I'd bite them in half and throw them.
No.
The big rubbery ones.
Yeah.
Because you just do it really quickly.
Yeah, I would think.
So one time there was a gray one, and it was coming around on a guy's foot.
So I grabbed it, and I bit it, and they're a lot thicker.
They're almost like a jerky texture.
And so I'm grinding it with my teeth.
Oh, God.
Jesus Christ.
And one thing that the gray ones do, they have their babies and they have about 200 of them and they carry them on their belly.
Little tiny, they almost look microscopic.
So I'm biting this thing in half and all of a sudden I feel.
In your mouth. And all of a sudden I feel, I feel all these little things going up into my gums.
And I look and there's babies all, and these little baby leeches are going into the cracks in my teeth, into my gums.
And sucking into your gums.
How did you get them out?
You know when you suck a kernel of popcorn?
I was just like, I was sucking so hard I almost imploded my head.
Are they still there?
They might be still there.
How'd you get them out?
I just had to like pull and get toothpicks.
It was horrifying.
That was the last time I bit a leech.
I'd say probably about 10 or 20 just went.
Because they're so small.
I'd never bit into another leech after that.
This is what I call learning lessons the hard way.
The Harlan way.
By the way, the Harlan way.
Kids don't do that nowadays.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
Don't bite your leeches.
Don't bite your leeches.
Don't go become a lumberjack up north.'t go chasing wait what's your creepy insect story
the rest of everyone has one you got a scorpion try to kill with a shoe kill two of them i actually
recently my so we were in our backyard and i saw a giant black spider that was a black widow on our
on our hose and i was like trying not to panic the kids who were out
there and i was like uh to my wife there's a spider on the hose she's like i'll get it and i
was like i don't know if you should get she comes over and just smashes it with like a nap or a
paper towel and i was like trying not to freak because i would have done it but i also probably
wouldn't have done that took it like a baseball Yeah, I would have like sprayed like, you know,
whatever it was on it. You sure she
wasn't just mad because you had some hose
in the backyard? Hey, look, the next
thing you know, Jay's sleeping
in his bed and his wife is up on the ceiling.
Yeah, she's now been bitten by a radioactive
light. Spider-Verse, but she took it out.
Took it out, bro. There you go.
