John Gabrus.
Welcome to the show. John G. Gabrus.
Thanks for having me, guys.
John G. Gabrus.
Jingleheimer Schmidt.
Yes.
His name is my name too.
Dude, we've been wanting to get you on for a long, long time.
Not because we think you're dumb, but we think you understand the world of dumb.
I have one leg in dumb in any given moment.
You swim in those waters.
Yeah, yeah.
I grew up in those waters
and I dive in every once in a while.
Where'd you grow up?
And you saved people
from those waters.
I'm from Long Island.
Strong Island representing.
There you go.
There's Earthquake in Nassau.
Oh, wow.
Gee.
Atlantic Beach.
So now you can see
why Dumb People Town
is in my wheelhouse.
My wife's family
like lived in like kind of near Atlantic Beach area.
You kind of go down that area, you see some dumb that you just are like.
Old fashioned East Coast town.
Oh, New York isn't as refined as I thought it was.
But it has confidence.
It's 30 minutes outside of New York City, 40 years behind it.
Exactly.
That's the way we said that about, we were in Bloomington, Indiana, about Martinsville,
which is where the KKK started
It's like maybe 20 miles and 200 years away from
Give or take a decade
Give or take a decade
Daniel, the world's getting dumber
We get amazing stories sent to us reminding us that
And we'll talk about what John has going on in the second break
But we gotta jump into some dumbness right away
Okay
Ready?
Yes
Sent in by Nicholas J we got to jump into some dumbness right away. Okay. Ready? Yes.
Sent in by Nicholas J. at the
Notorious BRT.
Nice. Which doesn't
seem to be his initials, so I'm not...
Maybe he's talking about the BART?
It's more of a takeoff on Ruth Bader Ginsburg
than it is on... I'll take that.
Biggie Smalls, right?
It's like more of a... It's an anagram
for a takeoff. Waukesha for a takeoff waukesha county wisconsin
oh yeah an area of the country i'm extremely familiar is it in the dells dan waukesha
no i don't know well waukesha it might be near milwaukee because waukesha is a town outside of
milwaukee like if you told me dan that waukesha is where Americans ate their first pickle, I'd believe you.
Oh, yeah. You can give me any state fair
bullshit, and I'll believe you.
It's like where the largest pig was found.
It's actually where the largest pig
who could swim was found.
There are bigger pigs, but they have drowned.
I went to a state fair once, and
the big thing was like, watch this little
pig swim, and it swam in a thing
that was maybe as long as this table.
And so many people showed up to see it.
I was like, more people showed up to see it than to see us do comedy.
And by the way, the pig fucking made us wait.
I was like, you're not going to big time us here.
Who are you, Axl Rose?
We got to watch the pig stretch.
Stretch that gullet, piggy.
No, the pig's coming from a strip club.
And it just needs its time. Look, we can't tell this pig when to start swimming. All right? It's coming from a strip club It needs its time
We can't tell this pig when to start swimming
It's going to do what it does
Well, Waukesha County, home of the fried cotton candy
That's not true, Dan
You made that up
See, that's the most
That's where it started, right?
I'm here in Waukesha County
Where they're deep frying cotton candy
Let's take it on over to the stand.
Funnel clouds, funnel cakes.
Waukesha County is actually where those girls did the Slender Man murders.
Oh, great.
Oh, shit.
Good.
Those are my idols.
Dying to get them on my podcast.
They're very authoritative about Slender Man.
They're perfect for high and mighty.
They know what they're talking about.
They understand how to lure somebody in.
A man who told police he was a cat and threatened to knock out an officer is facing multiple charges.
Are cats that violent?
No, they don't give a shit.
Cats don't care.
I'm going to say this.
He might be a cat, but he ain't no pussy.
Yeah.
That's probably what he said.
Because he's going after those cops.
And multiple violations.
It's like you assaulted a police officer
and you pretended to be a cat.
And I hope the assault was that he just kind of
laid in wait for a while and then ran out
and started scratching the cop's foot.
He's like, don't, come on, man.
He just rubbed his back against the cop's legs.
And you're like, stop it.
The cop goes to put the cuffs on.
He's like.
The suspect licked my neck with their rough tongue.
They took the taser on the ground.
And the suspect hid under a bed for two years because someone jostled the cabinet.
The cops pull out like laser-sighted fucking pistols.
He just started making them run around.
He just chases it all over.
He knocks the cop down, gets on the cop
and just starts kneading him.
Making dough
on his little belly. What are you doing?
He's taking a shit in a box. He's like, let him
do it. Do you think he's... Because we don't know
the order of these crimes. He could have assaulted
a cop and then run away into a pet
store. And the cop comes in and goes, have you seen
anyone? He's just in a little crate.
What were we... Me? I a little crate. What were we?
Me?
I'm a cat.
What were we meowing last night that was the most fun thing in the world?
Under the bridge?
Oh, yeah.
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, It was so fun to do.
We walked out of the improv like full voice at like 1.30 in the morning.
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.
Red hot chili tabbies.
There is something joyful about pretending to be a cat singing a song about heroin destroying your life.
100%.
Under a bridge.
Ready for this name?
Yeah.
Double G.
Graydon Gibson.
Graydon.
Wow.
His parents constantly talking to him to get over here.
But you know when he was a shitty kid, somebody had to call him D. Graydon.
Don't D. Graydon.
Your life is going downhill, son.
Like one lippy teacher called him D. Graydon.
Graydon, listen to me.
Graydon.
Set down Graydon.
Anybody who was
at a claim jumper waiting
for their table was like, I've had enough
of Graydon. Graydon, sit
down. Not the beeper down. They say not to
trust people with two first names. How do they feel about
two people with two last names?
Well, those are the cats of this world. Did he hyphenate
his names like that? Graydon Gibson?
He hyphenates his first and last name.
It should be like... Alan Graydon Gibson. He activates his first and last name. It should be like Alan Graydon Gibson.
Alan Graydon Gibson
was one of our
nation's greatest poets.
Didn't realize he was gay.
Graydon Gibson.
He didn't write the poem
Howl.
He wrote the poem
Prowl.
There it is.
Meow.
Meow.
Graydon Gibson. Alan Graydon Gibson
is charged with misdemeanor bail jumping,
disorderly conduct, and obstructing
an officer. According to a
criminal complaint, police were called after
someone reported seeing a body under
a tree near the tennis court
in Beverly Hills Park in
Brookfield. Okay, first of all, the fact that Wisconsin
named someplace Beverly Hills Park.
It's like in Michigan.
Eddie Murphy picked up a transvestite there.
A trans person, I guess,
is the better way to say it.
Isn't there a Beverly Hills in Michigan, too?
I'm almost certain there is.
I think there's going to be Beverly Hills in a lot more
cities that are way different than Beverly Hills.
Beverly Hills Trailer Park.
There's always a Hollywood tanning salon. Oh, for sureiler Park. There's always like a Hollywood tanning salon.
Oh, for sure.
There, I think, is a Hollywood tanning salon in Hollywood.
And I'm like, what are you doing?
We have this.
Just call it a tanning salon.
Thank you.
This should be in Grand Rapids.
Or how great would it be if it was a Grand Rapids tanning in Hollywood?
That would be the funniest thing I've ever seen.
Heartland tanning.
Yeah, I love that name. I just love the idea of this call
The 911 hello
Yeah there's a body under a tree
Where is it
Beverly Hills Park
Is it on the tennis court
No it's by it
He's got a little tail pinned to his pants
Was he thinking
No he's purring
He's purring.
He walked around
in a circle four times
before he was laid down.
Better make sure
he's declawed.
Well, I think he was up
in the tree
and they called
the fire department
to get him down
and then he fell
and they were like,
switch it to the cops.
Did I ever tell you guys
about the time
that I was playing tennis
here over on Riverside
by Los Feliz
with my buddy?
We were playing at this court that had, like, stands and everything.
My buddy Bill and I were playing, and all of a sudden this guy,
this really ratty-looking dude comes up and is like,
as we're playing, there was a plug, like a plug by where we were playing.
An outlet?
Yeah.
He's like, you guys mind if I charge my iPhone here,
charge my phone here? And we's like, you guys mind if I charge my iPhone here? Charge my phone here?
And we're like, yeah, sure.
He sits down and rolls up his pants, huge swastika on his calf, and just sits there.
I'm like, he's going to-
Wait, he just rolled his pants up for no reason?
Rolled his pants up.
I think there was a reason.
He saw your nose and was like, let me roll up my pants.
Thank you.
Thank you. That is a statement right there
Of like, this is who I am
Hey, fuck you guys, enjoy tennis
Enjoy, enjoy
I was like, I love that your phone doesn't
Like as much of an asshole as you are
Your phone doesn't have juice
Do you have a Samsung charger?
What's that?
Do you have a dongle?
Maybe your phone's not pure enough
Okay, so body by the tennis courts.
Body by the tennis courts.
I'm thinking could be a Nazi.
Around 11.30 p.m. on April 7th, right?
Oh, shit.
If I remember correctly, it was probably like a Thursday or Friday.
Wow, damn.
No, April 7th was a, this past year, was a Sunday.
You sure?
April 8th was a Monday, and that was my wife's birthday. Yeah, because the third
is my mom's and that was a Tuesday. Do you know what
I got her as a gift?
Do you know what I got her as a gift? Calf swastika. A calendar
that said how close her birthday was to yours?
Nope. A body laying under a tennis
court. Oh, I thought you were going to say the cat
version of Under the Bridge downtown
on a CD. Yeah, man, man, man. Under the
tennis court. We're going to get sued.
We're still going to get sued.
I don't know if this falls under parody law.
It does.
Brookfield police found Gibson.
It's parody law.
That's Claude Brothers.
I'm doing the clap
that a soccer player does
when he's just leaving the pitch.
He's just saying.
That's a soccer clap too. He's asking himself for applause. He's just saying. It's a soccer clap, too.
He's asking himself for applause.
He's asking the crowd.
He's like, come on.
I'm going to show you what you have to do for me.
This is what you need to do.
But I'm doing that to Gabrus on that one.
Thank you, guys.
Brookfield police found Gibson lying on the ground after shaking him and checking his pulse.
Gibson slowly began to wake up.
The officer said he was stretching every little bit.
He said he was extremely lethargic
and swore at her before
meowing and saying he was a cat.
By the way, this is exactly the way cats are.
That's what I was going to say. Every person who doesn't
want to get arrested is essentially being a cat.
Non-compliance. That is the
key to any cat's life. This was in our last
special. We said, like, nobody in ever.
The best thing you could ever say about a cat is he's like a dog.
Yeah.
He's like a dog.
He does tricks.
He knows his name.
You can walk him.
No one's ever said, like, you got to meet my dog.
He thinks he's a cat.
Nobody.
My cat rules.
It's just like a dog.
Well, wait till you see fucking dogs.
Yeah, exactly.
That's why I said anyone who loves. I'm a cat person. I'm like, well, you've never had a dog. Yeah, wait till you see fucking dogs. Yeah, exactly. That's why I said anyone who loves,
I'm a cat person.
I'm like, well,
you've never had a dog.
I've had cats I loved,
but specific cats.
I understand that.
I get that.
The pitch for cats
are either they're
just like a dog
or they're no work whatsoever.
And if you're like,
yeah, I like this pet
because I don't have
to deal with it.
Right.
I like this pet
because it's like a pigeon
on my porch.
Indoor pigeons.
Indoor pigeons.
Now, we know Graydon is white,
A, because his name is Graydon,
and B, because he wasn't
immediately shot
pretending to be a cat.
That's true.
The officer tried to ask Gibson
what was going on,
but he would not answer.
Very cat-like.
That's cat.
Come on.
Pay attention.
He is a cat.
Look over here.
Look at me.
Right.
When asked how much he had to drink the night before, it's 1130 p.m.
If he would have said just a tiny saucer of whiskey.
I would have said just a nip of whiskey.
It's even better.
When asked how much he had to drink the night before, Graydon Gibson said, quote, not enough.
Awesome.
That's a great answer. At that point, you have to just
go like, this guy's got some valid points.
Where do you need to write to, buddy?
You want to stop anywhere?
You want to hold my gun? We can charge taff at
Chipotle. We're going to let you use the badge tonight.
Okay. All right. Get the
barbacoa, brother. Get it.
When I was in Chicago, that was a big selling point.
I was like, man, these cops. Because in Chicago, cops don't get charged for anything.
I don't know how it works in LA.
I know Chipotle does have a company-wide first responders always are half price.
New York's not allowed to do that.
Really?
Why?
But do you think they don't?
Well, of course not.
I mean, no, I think the cops follow all the rules.
Have you seen The 7-5?
That's the best guy.
You watched it?
Yes.
I remember telling you about it months ago
You watched it
Those are my relatives in that movie
They're all like
They all fucking live on Long Island
They all moved to Long Island of course
So I looked in the room
And the guy looks like Jim Brewer
I look in the room and the bag's open
I see a little bit of money
I'm like that's my fucking money
But the thing about that documentary is the the most chilling moment for me is when a clean cop
jay why don't you spoil it for everybody there's a million things in this thing for me i said
is when a clean cop said the first day i met this guy shook his hand yeah he was like i as he walked
away i'm like that guy's a perp that guy's not a cop Even though he's in cop clothes
Yeah he just had that
Feeling around him
Perp energy
My favorite was like
So we talked about it
We said
You know
Let's not
Let's not like
You know
Be overt here
You know
Everybody
You know
The next day
This old bitch rolls up
In a red cherry convertible
I know
He drives a fucking Lambo
It's like that scene
In Goodfellas
Where they come in
With the coats
And it's like
Take them off
Get out of here
Get out of here
What are you doing
I tried to tell I. I love that.
We just pulled off the...
We just did Lufthansa. Get the fuck
out of here.
That is an unbelievable,
unbelievable documentary. It's about the 1970s.
Yeah, these two guys.
80s. One guy
who was dirty who got another
guy who wasn't dirty but who wasn't
making enough money into everything and they just started shaking people down.
Unbelievable.
And not like, oh, we skim a little off the top.
Drug runners.
Doing full on like they were working as criminals.
Yeah, we're going to be the drug lords.
They – somehow I watched the entire movie and they're the heroes.
I don't even understand.
It's like a documentary about corrupt cops, two things I hate, corruption and police.
And at the end of it, I was like, I'm with those guys.
Like, I don't know how.
They won you over.
It's like when you are-
They are charming.
It's like, it's clear how they got away with it for so long.
They're like scamps.
They're scamps.
You can see-
They're lovable.
The main guy owns it.
He owns it so much that you're like, I just-
Yeah.
I can't really-
You're not lying.
What about the big heavy metal bassist guy?
He's like, I come in there and I'm like six foot six, so I start throwing people around.
You know, you're like, uh.
I don't know if you're talking about high school football.
You're talking about breaking the law.
But you're saying in New York that you're not allowed to get a discount as a police officer.
Yes.
Because I think they would take full advantage of that.
Imagine going into a fucking bodega and you can just take whatever you want if you're a cop.
So how much do you have to drink?
Not enough.
Not enough.
You win.
Come on, you're coming with us.
Let's get you a few more pops then, brother.
Let's get great into the bar.
The officer reported that while speaking with Gibson, he was saying random things that did not make sense and could smell alcohol on his breath.
Wow, what a weird way to say he was drunk.
He kept talking about his dead dad and his breath. Wow, what a weird way to say he was drunk. He kept talking about his dead dad
and his breath smelled like alcohol.
The captain's yelling at him about his report.
He's like, just write drunk. He's like, Sarge, you weren't there.
I didn't have a breathalyzer, Sarge.
I couldn't prove it.
I am known for my writing.
I like to give you the context and let you
make the decision.
The best dad's right. I set up the dots. And let you make the decision I set up the dots
I let you connect
While being checked out by first responders
The complaint says that Graydon Gibson was not cooperative
And yelled profanities before he was
Eventually medically cleared
Very Catholic
Later Gibson allegedly became belligerent
Telling the officer
So he became a feral cat, essentially.
Quote, I'm gonna knock you the fuck out.
That is very un-cat-like.
Right. Yeah, because they'll just do it.
Right. And clenching his
fist while staring at a firefighter.
The firefighter. The firefighter.
The first responder. He's over there with an axe like,
hey, hey, hey. You want me to split
his head open? Hey. This reminds me of
all those times working door or just being in bars
in Chicago where you can see the way
someone's standing and you're like,
that person wants to fight.
He's just standing there with his
just looking at the...
Head cocked a little bit to the side.
I was a bartender for like five years and I could
truly look in a crowd of people and say
who's going to fuck and who's going to fight.
That's right.
This guy's going to fight. That's right.
This guy's going to fight.
You're looking for it.
You also can totally tell which couples are in fights that they haven't told anybody else about.
That's my favorite shit ever
is when you see a woman pull her hand away
secretly from a distance.
You see a woman pull her hand out from her boyfriend.
What happened there?
There we go. I'll still at
bars, two door guys be like, hey,
you guys do whatever you want. You run this however you want. I just
want you to know that guy's going to be a problem for you in about
10 minutes. You guys can do whatever
you want. Nine minutes in, you walk over
deck that guy. I'm like, see?
Told you.
He gets up and starts fighting. You're like, I told you.
10 minutes. I'm on time. This guy
on the nose. Am I clairvoyant or what? You owe me big time, guys. There you go. You're like, I told you, 10 minutes. I want to die. This guy, on the nose. Am I clairvoyant or what?
You owe me
big time, guys. There you go. You're welcome for
the tip. He was clenching his fist while staring at a police
officer. Like a firefighter, I think
you said. Firefighter. A firefighter, yes.
Well, that's a smart move. If you're gonna start a
fight with someone, choose the one that doesn't have a pistol
on their belt. Choose the guy
who was just posing for a calendar.
Yeah, he was facing the other way doing a shoot.
He didn't realize.
When asked if he would cooperate with police,
Graydon Gibson responded,
quote, I don't know.
Am I going to be arrested?
That's a good...
Put it on them.
Why are the cops even asking?
Just find out.
Are you going to cooperate?
So far, the answer has been no.
You say that as you're bending his arm behind him and cuffing him up.
Well, yeah, you've got to say that stuff for the body cam audio.
You've got to be like, listen up.
And meanwhile, you're just kneeling in the middle of his scapula.
I don't want to blame them, but you've got to know the right question.
I can't go into my son and be like, what do you want for breakfast?
I have to go in and be like, do you want a bagel or do you want pancakes?
I've got to narrow it down to two.
Fine, then we can have both.
You can have one or the other,
but I can't be like, what do you want?
Are you going to cooperate?
Are you going to cooperate?
It's going to be like,
you ready for the cuffs or are you not?
Now you got two choices.
No, I'm not.
Well, now I'm going to put my knee in your neck.
Don't give drunk people or children open-ended questions.
Oh, yeah.
You got to frame the discussion. Even your friend. Don't ask drunk people or children open-ended questions. Too many choices. Oh, yeah. You've got to frame the discussion.
But never, even your friend.
Don't ask your drunk friend, where do you want to go?
That's right.
Do you want to go to Taco Bell or do you want to go home?
Do you want to go to another bar or do you want to go home?
Right.
Because if you say, where do you want to go, Disneyland might come in.
Yeah, you know what I mean?
It's too many options.
And not a lot of people know this, but that's a binding question if you say to your buddy
when you're leaving a bar, where do you want to go?
It's a contractual obligation.
I like Magic Mountain. Well, we're not going to go? It's a contractual obligation. I like Magic Mountain.
Well, we're not going to go to Magic Mountain.
You said go anywhere.
Well, no.
I didn't say go anywhere.
I definitely didn't say anywhere.
You said anywhere.
No.
He's going back on what he's saying.
You said anywhere.
I like when you ask.
I'm out there.
This guy's a liar.
Leave him alone.
That's what I was going to say.
I like when you ask a drunk person an open-ended question and get a different answer.
Like, where do you want to eat?
He never even liked me.
Come on.
Nobody's even talking about that right now.
We asked about where you wanted to eat.
You don't like me, and that guy walking by doesn't like me?
He definitely doesn't like me.
That is a woman.
And Brian, it's great that people don't like you, but come on, let's keep going.
Let's keep going.
Come on, Brian.
No, I'm not leaving until you apologize.
Too many choices.
Too many choices.
If you say Taco Bell or here, then they got to give you an answer.
I heard what you were looking at.
No.
Taco Bell or here.
Or Chick-fil-A.
The complaint says that Gibson refused to tell officers his full correct name multiple times. I would too if my name was
Graydon. But maybe he did and they were like,
come on, man. Give us your real name.
Stop making shit up.
Graydon wins.
And gave police a fake
birth date. Yeah.
He got the year right, but it was like September
4th, 42.
In order
to identify Gibson, Brookfield
Police used law enforcement
records
and matched him with a
previous booking photo.
Guys, run-ins before?
Authorities also reported they found a bottle
of Admiral Nelson in his
backpack. I have no idea.
That's cat tranquilizer.
It's just straight up.
It's highly marketed.
Or is it cereal?
Captain Crunch knockoffs?
No, no, no.
Admiral Nelson is just below Captain
Morgan.
If they were on a ship.
If they were a naval hierarchy.
It is like how Jack Daniels' shitty friend
is Evan Williams.
Or Jimmy Walker.
I've looked it up.
Johnny Walker.
It is a type of shitty whiskey.
Jimmy Walker dynamite whiskey.
I got pulled over one time in college.
My roommates were pushing me home in a shopping cart.
Of course.
And like on Route 9 in Poughkeepsie.
And the cops were like, whoop, whoop, pulled me over. And my Poughkeepsie, and the cops like,
whoop, whoop,
pulled me over,
and my friends are like,
oh, fuck, officer,
we're just getting our friend home drunk.
They're like,
well, he doesn't seem of age to be drinking.
I was like 18 or 19 at the time,
and they were like,
oh, I am.
They're like,
let me see your ID,
and I gave the cops my fake ID,
and they're like,
all right, what's your name?
I'm like, Danny Valinati.
They're like,
shout out to whoever this guy is. I stole his driver's license 20 years ago, and I was like, uh, all right, what's your name? I'm like, Danny Valenati. Shout out to whoever this guy is.
I stole his driver's license 20 years ago.
And I was like,
uh,
this address and I knew his birthday and everything.
They were like,
all right,
get Danny home.
And my friends were like,
all right,
Danny,
let's get you home.
Holy shit.
They were ready to come out and be like,
no,
you don't understand.
Go until you get the call.
Your information recall was unbelievable.
The thing you memorize
is like your horoscope
because that's the
bouncer follow-up question.
What's your sign?
Yeah.
Cancer.
But that freaking ID
goes in the like
fake ID Hall of Fame.
Like we were,
when we were at Michigan,
there was a guy named
Ari Nessel
who was trying to take
fake ID photos
and he made a giant board
that you stood in front of
and you took the picture
in front of the board
and then cut it out and put it in laminate.
And it was the Illinois State license.
Before you could just click and drag to shrink something.
I did that as a poster of the Jersey
driver's license standing in front of me.
So you stand in front of it, but then the lighting
was too dark when he was being, you know,
when they were comparing.
So he did it outside on the roof of the house.
So one of our first comedy bits is telling the story.
One of our first comedy bits is like, Jesus Christ.
Dude, a dog shouldn't be catching a Frisbee in the background of your license.
Should there be leaves?
Leafs?
I see wind in your hair.
When is it windy in the D&D?
Not to mention just walking by, cops just like, do-do-do-do-do, spinning their baton.
They look up and there's a giant fake guy on the roof.
Kentucky.
I looked it up, guys.
One of you was exactly right.
Admiral Nelson, spiced rum.
It is a Captain Morgan.
You know it's a little too spicy.
It's like the, what's the production company?
Asylum Films that make those sound-alike movies.
When Transformers comes out, they make Morphmongers or whatever.
That's exactly what it is.
It's like people like Captain Morgan may be foreign people accidentally by
Admiral Nelson. It's the morph mongers
of Spice Strong.
His other leg is up.
Both legs are up in
stirrups and he's delivering
the bottle.
In March, Gibson had been
charged with three misdemeanor counts for disorderly
conduct, resisting obstruction, an officer of bail,
$500 signature bond,
a whole bunch of other stuff.
The bond was signed April 1st.
It was still in full force when Gibson was arrested.
We will get out of here on this.
Yes, the AG.
How old do you believe Graydon Gibson is?
You are our guest, Gabrus, so you can go first, Tig, or third.
Tig's in the middle slot.
Oh, okay.
And I have to guess his age for all nine lives?
Just his current one general Just his current one
Do you want to go first, second, or third?
I'll go Tig
Jay, go ahead
I think this guy is 28 years old
28 years old from Jason Sklar
I think he's 44
Why do you say 44?
Because I feel like he might be
Someone suffering from mental health issues
And lack of a place to live
If that was the case I wouldn't have done it
I think he's 56
Yeah I'm going even further
Graydon Gibson
We're going to close out on this
What did I say 27, 44, and 56
The name Graydon feels like an older name
Like Grady
Graydon Gibson is 20 years old.
Oh!
We could not have gotten that more wrong.
Holy shit.
So parents can be to blame in the recent rear view.
You put him in this.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I mean, there's a possibility that he's a college junior.
Yeah, that's right.
And he just keeps getting bagged, fucking wasted,
chugging Admiral Nelson.
He'll learn his lesson someday or not. All right, there's our first story down just keeps getting bagged, fucking wasted, Chuck and Admiral Nelson. He'll learn his lesson
someday or not. Alright, there's our first story
down the road. John Gabrus is with us. There'll be
more Dumb People Town. Stay with us right
after this.
Hey guys, welcome back to
Dumb People Town. We want to remind
people Randy and I are going to be in San Francisco at Cobb's Comedy Club.
It's a giant club.
We're going to be there the week after Clusterfest.
People aren't going to want to see comedy anymore.
Come on.
I'll tell them when I'm at Clusterfest.
You fuckers better save a little room for some more comedy.
There you go.
Come see us.
That's our next thing on the docket.
And we just, we didn't even tell you this, but we're going to be at the Montreal Comedy Festival.
I did tell that.
So we're going to be at Montreal Comedy Festival.
And so for our friends in San Diego,
we are going to have to move that date at the end of July,
probably till maybe January.
We'll let you know, keep that.
But go to superschoolhours.com and check that out.
And you've got some stuff happening on June 16th.
Yes, I realized that that's just the weekend,
but it's June 15th, whatever that Saturday is.
Yeah, it's June 15th.
In Chicago, I'll be doing live High and Mighty Power Hour.
Where?
That's a great question.
You get tickets at headgum.com slash live.
Excellent.
I might be there that night.
Maybe I'll come say hi.
You have a great podcast.
I mean, High and Mighty is fantastic.
Yeah, you guys, we've got to get this club.
There's so many different things we could kind of like talk about because we're hotheads on all that stuff.
But it's a great explain to the people so that they know because it's just a chat show.
But sometimes it breaks format and we do like I have people on to talk about stuff that they're not necessarily experts in, but that they're passionate about.
Exactly. Often something that overlaps with me as being a sort of pretend polymath.
I love it. So I'm just like happy. It's really, what I came up with,
it was the most self-indulgent podcast ever.
I said, come to my house
and talk to me about stuff
I want to talk about.
That's great.
I love that.
And I'll be making $70 a month.
Listen, the passion of it is great
and the stuff you do with Lapkus,
Raised on TV.
Yes.
That's another great podcast.
Yeah.
And then I also have a Patreon podcast
called Action Boys
if you guys are getting nuts.
If you are a male-
If you go down the rabbit hole of John Gabrus.
Yeah, if you're thinking like, I really want to throw this guy $5 a month or at least one
third of $5 a month, that's your way to make it happen.
When I was on, we did Vegas, which you've covered a lot.
But we tried to do more of like-
We don't really do gambling.
All right.
Should we-
Let's jump into a story.
Okay.
Our second story.
We got John Gabrus here, who, by the way,
has, let's mention this,
three podcasts. One's a Patreon podcast
called Action Boys.
One's on Earwolf. That's
on Stitcher Premium called Raised by TV.
And then High and Mighty for free.
And it is truly in that.
The quality goes up with the more you pay.
High and Mighty being easily the worst.
Stop. Stop. That easily the worst. Stop.
That's the pitch.
Hey, come on.
He doesn't care.
He's not lying.
Nothing you do is bad.
All right, well, let's jump into another story.
All right.
Sent in by Jason Parkis at J Parkis, P-A-R-K-I-S.
Gabrus, I thought of you when I saw the story, so I hope you enjoy it.
Love can really hurt One Friday man spent what was meant to be
His wedding night in jail
After breaking the nose
Of a photo bombing beach goer
Who refused to move out of the way
For wedding photos
By the way I am 100% on this guy's side
I'm going to tell you one more time man
We're trying to take a fucking wedding photo here.
And all you're doing is sunbathing.
Dude, I have formal wear and fighting is fucking great.
I would punch a shark in the face.
Being like, get out of our...
I would take a cane and cane...
Remember when that kid went to Singapore and got caned?
Because he put gum on the...
I would cane the shit out of that photo.
It's funny.
You said, remember when that kid...
When you say cane, the only thing I think of is the guy getting caned in Singapore.
And that was like 20-something years ago.
I don't even think of blind people, Michael Caine.
The first thing that comes to my mind is that Singapore caned.
No other caning in history compares to the Singapore caning.
I think we're around the age where when you were a kid that you heard that and that burned into your brain.
Chewing bubble gum.
That's what he was doing.
Spit bubble gum out on the street.
It felt like it was like the true news version of if you get hit, your face will stay like that.
You know what I mean?
It was kind of like, no, you can really get caned by Singapore people.
If you fall asleep in Mexico City, they're going to take your candy.
But imagine how this incident, you know it started like, hey, hey, my man.
Come on, just move it just a little bit. Yeah, sorry. yeah sorry we're just doing our wedding we're just getting some wedding photos taking a photo of a moment that we want to have forever
like the best man of the groom was like a dude ain't moving yeah i do and i'm telling you that
dude in the background had bad like long shorts on that went past his knee and had a corona in
his hand and some sort of graphic tee that he found.
Like a rude dog. Like an Ed Hardy
knockoff. Or like a
Mr. Zod sex wax.
Get off, dude.
I'm going to ask you one more time, man.
We're just trying to take these photos. A lot of beach.
Honey, just let him.
I got it. We'll cut him out of it.
Oh, I'll cut him out of it.
The best to do is when somebody who's calm is like, hey, man, just chill out.
And then the person who's the offender.
I am chill.
No, it says to the calm person, yeah, fuck you too.
Now the calm person is like, did you say?
Fuck this guy.
When the calm person flips is one of my favorites.
When you're like, honey, you know what, honey?
Knock this motherfucker out.
Hit him. Hit his ass. Hit his ass. favorite like oh when you're like honey you know what honey knock this motherfucker out or the calm person's like are you just give me permission and i'm gonna go over there i love also when the person is like just calm down and the guy in the back who's standing
photobomb is like yeah just calm down i wasn't talking to you. I was talking to this person. Well, just calm down, everybody. Hey!
I would hit that
dude so hard with a
bodyboard. Is photobombing
one of the least funny things you can
do as a person? But it is something
that photobombers think is
hilarious. Well, that's often how the
least funny things in the world work, is that the people
who do them think they still work. No one ever thinks
it's terrible.
That is what unfunny people
do to try to be funny. The other thing
unfunny people do to try to be funny that drives me crazy
is lie. Yeah, I've been there. You have?
Nah, dude.
I can't believe you fell for that. Why?
I don't give a fuck about you.
I want to Andy Kindler those people.
I want to be like, alright, this is what a premise
is. This is what a punchline is.
This is where a setup comes in.
You have none of them.
My friends are objectively the funniest people in America.
Don't even bother with this show.
That's not funny.
That's just lying.
I say that all the time.
All you did was tell a lie.
No, you didn't.
No, you didn't.
If you're meeting a group of guys at a bachelor party or a wedding or something,
and they're always like to the comedy people like,
oh, DVK, you're going to love my friend Brian.
He's hysterical.
That guy is an asshole.
I cannot wait to meet this asshole.
Exactly.
And you know who you always end up liking the most?
The guy that doesn't really talk that much.
Yeah.
You're like talking to him and you find out he's super interesting.
And then he asks you eventually, you want to smoke a cigar?
And you're like, you know what, fuck it. I you know what fuck I like this guy yeah and it's always like
the wife's brother
he's like I don't know anyone here either
and you're like I like you
I know a few of them and I hate them
but you don't even find that out until the next day
no you don't find out until the wedding
and you're like what dude yeah
I'm glad I didn't talk shit about
they're like do you want to move this guy's bed out on the balcony?
Nah.
Let's go.
So what did he do?
Was he standing up and bouncing in the photo?
Jeffrey E. Alvord.
A-L-V-O-R-D.
I hate everything about him.
Man Magazine first draft.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Jeffrey E. Alvord.
Come on, punch this name up.
Was arrested on March 3rd after assaulting.
Oh, that's the room. that's the guy who did it.
So he's the dumb person.
The protagonist of this arrest story is not the dumb person.
I hate that this guy spent time in jail.
He was arrested on March 3rd.
Oh, the photobomber has a much more on brand name.
Jeffrey E. Alvord was arrested on March 3rd after assaulting Trevor Money.
T-Money is
for sure what his friends call him.
He's so money and he doesn't even know it.
You know he asked his junior high basketball
coach if he could get T-Money on his jersey.
T-Money's like, all I do
is photobomb. No one gets their name.
No one ever invites me to be in a fall.
T-Money's gonna be in
your photo, yo. All I do
is photobomb
Albert was arrested after assaulting Trevor Money before
Maybe Trevor Money is the guy
Let's listen to this
Oh, no, you're right
Trevor Money, before his oceanfront park nuptials were set to begin
Local 10 reported
That's right
The 27-year-old groom
That's early
Flew into somewhat of a friendship
So you know he likes to make that decision a little too early.
He probably could have held off on punching this guy.
Just like he probably could have held off on marrying this girl.
The 27-year-old groom flew into somewhat of a frenzy when the 24-year-old T-Money Mooney refused offers of how much money to move out of the way.
How much do you guys think?
Okay, wait, wait.
Now this is opening up a new possibility.
If he's offering him money,
that might mean that T-Money is just camped out,
hanging out at the beach,
like not even thinking about the wedding.
All I do is make money from photobombing.
Right.
And not photobombing.
I'm saying less intentional of a photobomb.
He's got his chair set up,
and the guy's like,
can you move?
We're trying to take photos here.
That's exactly what happened.
And T-Money's like,
dude, I'm at the beach. It's the public beach. It's the beach, Gabrus. Right. That sun's like, can you move? We're trying to take photos here. that's exactly what happened. And T-Money's like, dude, I'm at the beach.
It's the public beach.
It's the beach, Gabrus.
Right.
That sun's going to hit you, buddy.
Oh, I know.
It's very easy to move,
but then it's also very easy
to activate people's stubborn gene.
They probably didn't start at money.
Oh, no, no, no.
They're like,
will you mind moving?
We're in the middle of our show.
I'll move your chair for you.
Right.
How much is it going to take?
And also, you know,
you can have prima nocta on my wife An already drunk
Gruzman was probably throwing cash
You want to fucking move man?
I'm going to ask you guys
How much money do you think
He was offered
And refused to move
Gabrus what position do you want to go in?
I'll go TIG
$175 $175 from Jason's Confused to move. Gabrus, what position do you want to go in? I'll go TIG. Okay. Jay?
$175.
$175 from Jason Scott.
$50.
$50 from John Gabrus.
I think there are probably eight groomsmen and maybe eight.
So what did you say?
$175.
How many people were in your wedding party?
Okay.
I'm going to say maybe five groomsmen and five. No, more.
He's only 27 back when you were 27.
Oh, you can't leave out one roommate.
You got to have 10.
How many people were in your wedding party?
Five.
I got married young.
So what, you had nine?
No, I had like six.
Rory Scoble had like nine people.
I had like six.
What about you, Gabrus?
I think we had five and five.
Five and five.
I'm going to say there were 16 people in the wedding party,
and everyone said, we'll all throw in 20 bucks just to get this fucker out of here.
So $160.
Okay.
320.
Based on your math.
Right.
Did you say 40?
Okay.
What did you say?
175.
I said 175.
Okay.
Gabrus?
I said 50.
50.
I said 160.
160.
One of you is exactly right.
Oh, this is fun. Okay. Now, this game is we get to guess who do we think is right. Who do you is exactly right. Oh, this is fun!
Now this game is we get to guess who do we think
is right. Gabrus, do you
want to go first, take a third in who you think
is right? This is so fun.
This is the most important layer.
I'm going to go take a guess.
I'm right. I know I'm right. 175.
I'm sticking with myself.
See, now I'm starting to think
Gabrus is right because that is something you would just say to someone.
I'll give you $50 to get out of here.
That's a 27-year-old amount of money.
I'll give you $50 to get out of here.
$50 says you won't get out of here.
$50 says you won't get out of here.
That's what I think.
The amount of money offered to Trevor Mooney, or T-Money, by Jeffrey Alford or somebody else in the wedding party.
Get your answers in now, Tony.
Play along with us.
Because they offered him $50.
Yes!
$50 to get out of here.
They offered him $50.
By the way, it is so
little money, it's almost not
worth making it into the article.
You're right.
It's so little money. It's enough
money to get you to move your chair
By the way
Right
For $50 cash
I'll move my chair 20 feet
But it's not enough
To make it into the article
You're right
If I'm an editor
I'm like
Lose this whole thing
About the money
Or just say they offered him
A little bit of money
It's also not enough
To make you
Like move without
Thinking about it
Somebody's like
50 bucks
You're like
50 bucks
No dude
50 bucks To move Just to move 50 bucks. No, dude. 50 bucks to move?
Just to move your chair 30 feet in the other direction?
That is unbelievable.
I would take that.
That's an easy 50 bucks.
That is so easy.
I would do that.
But I'd still be like, yeah, I guess I could.
I'd think about it.
But I would never.
That's two brand new indie rock records.
But this guy's such a.
Right.
That's the way you got to look at it.
That's the way I look at everything.
Well, T-Money is, you know, he's not a money guy.
He's not.
He's this guy.
Can't be bought or sold.
He's all on credit.
He's principled.
This guy is such an asshole.
This guy reminds me of the guy when Jay and I were walking.
We were talking about this in our stand-up now, where the guy, we're walking down on
the sidewalk and someone from behind us yells, on your right.
And Jay and I expect to turn around and see a guy like whizzing by on a bike or a hoverboard that he can't control or rolling a gurney with someone who has to go to a hospital or something like that.
Or he's Falcon from Avengers.
Exactly.
Thank you.
Instead, this guy, we turn around and he's jogging.
Slowly jogging towards us.
Wait a minute.
You can't send the message to your dumb legs to run around us like anybody else would do on your right?
He's not even like a Kenyan in an Olympic.
Yeah, he's not sprinting.
He's not making time.
He's somebody that feels like he owns wherever he is.
Put it this way.
I own the sidewalk.
By the way, those people are the people who walk around Los Angeles.
Yeah.
Because I have now, in the last couple of months,
become a bit of a runner,
and I go for runs around my neighborhood
like three days a week.
And it is the most dangerous thing you could do.
Drivers don't expect people to be running.
No.
People on sidewalks do whatever they want.
I ran the fucking path from Malibu
down the Santa Monica Pier and back,
and I almost died like eight times.
I almost leaned in and took a guy off his bike because he was trying to like big man
me.
And I was like, is it worth it to like knock my teeth out just to knock this guy off his
fucking bike?
I almost.
Faber says things that make me realize why him and I are friends.
Could I take him out?
Could I big man him?
All right.
Could I take him out and then just get veneers?
All right.
So this dumb ass.
I could lose my teeth. That's like you do the whole process. I'm ready to lose my teeth. People right. Can I take him out and then just get veneers? All right. So this dumb ass. I could lose my teeth.
That's like you do the whole process.
I'm ready to lose my teeth.
People hire me because I'm funny, not because I have teeth.
Not because I have teeth.
Now you start going down that road.
Podcasting is actually my future.
By the way, a toothless guy that looks like me is going to get a hell of a lot more work.
A lot more work.
All right.
Something to think about.
So he won't move.
Yes.
They offer him $50 to move out of the way so that the wedding pictures could be taken
ahead of the ceremony, according to the Palm Beach Post.
So now you have people waiting.
Right.
I will say, great move by Alfred E. Newman here.
This is something we did on our wedding day, which I thought was huge, is we took our photos
before the ceremony.
That's right.
You want to get to the party.
So you'll miss cocktail hour, the best part of the wedding.
Thank you.
Get to the ceremony. That's right. You want to get to the party. So you'll miss cocktail hour, the best part of the wedding. Thank you. Get to the party.
Missing cocktail hour
when the whole bridal party
has to go and take photos
while everyone else
gets a drink and eat.
We did it too.
Yeah.
Smart.
This is all according
to the Palm Beach Post.
He, that's Alvord,
punched Mooney in the face
and the blow broke
the victim's nose
and eyeglasses
as per the Ocean Ridge
police report. Good. Get off your
chair and move, dude. There's also
I'm going to break your fucking glasses, Trevor.
I didn't know
my name.
A lot of times, for some
reason, these Florida articles, they have
asides that are links to other stories.
There's just one in the middle of this. Woman
72 weds boyfriend 74
after rejecting his proposals for 43 years.
That's a different story that I was like, I might want to go down that rabbit hole.
What made her finally say yes?
Right.
He finally wore her down.
He finally ate her pussy.
He's like, fine.
Right.
Yes, I will.
I do.
I will.
I do.
I do.
Fine. I will. I do I will I do I do Fine The two men
Have since offered
Differing accounts
Of the brawl
To authorities
My one big problem
With this is
You're the groom
If there's any a day
Where you could have
Someone do something
For you
Ask
Any a day
That's what a wedding planner
Is for
I was going to say
That's what a best man is
Like a best man is like
Or
And he's got to
Punch T-Money.
One of the guys you've known the longest that you trust the least,
a.k.a. your usher.
Yeah, right, yeah.
Yeah, he's my childhood friend.
He's a psychopath.
No one has to engage with him.
We're just going to make him an usher.
If I don't make him an usher, I'm in deep trouble.
Have an usher go punch the guy on the ass.
Hand out the programs and go kick that guy's ass.
You know, my friend who's in jeans and a black button-down shirt.
I've been wearing a tuxedo t-shirt.
Go kick his ass.
Guy who looks like the bartender.
Send him downstairs and have him punch.
Alvord claims that Mooney became, quote,
very belligerent after refusing the money to move
and felt threatened when the man stood up in an aggressive manner,
evidently prompting him to hit him in supposed self-defense.
Meanwhile, T. Mooney alleges
that the irate groomsman
held onto him and hit him
three times in the face,
further contending that, quote,
someone grabbed my belongings and threw
them across the beach. That's the usher.
That's the dude who went
out there with the groom. He's like, let me know what you need me to do.
Hey, by the way,
and the whole time he's punching him. He's like, let me know what you need me to do. Hey, by the way. I'll hit him.
You tell me.
And the whole time he's punching him, he's saying, you could have had 50 bucks.
I pressed the $50 into the bloody mess that's on his face. What are you, Bronx Tale?
Look at me.
I did this to you.
Remember this face.
Put him in a bathroom.
Put him in a bathroom.
Or another Bronx Tale movie.
You'll be like, okay.
Now you can't move.
Now you just can't leave.
Say that to the guy on the beach.
You know what?
Now you can't move.
Now, you know what?
Stay.
Stay.
That's a great wedding photo, though, for Alfred E. Newman, where there's a bloody guy and police sirens in the background.
The photographer takes an action shot of him punching.
Now you can sell that to the newspaper
and it's part of the package for the wedding.
Like the old Muhammad Ali fight shots where you see
when the punch hit the face.
You can see the face is mid-vibration.
What's my name? T-Money.
Treated at the scene by first responders, the police report
detailed that Mooney's nose, quote, appeared
to be out of place, sitting more to the
right of his face.
Again, we need an editor to take a quick pass to this out of place, sitting more to the right of his face. Nice.
Again, we need an editor to take a quick pass to this.
It's like, it doesn't matter what side the nose is on.
And they're like, I wish Mooney would have sat more to the right.
Mooney declined transport to a local hospital.
This fucker will not move for any of that.
They're like, we'll give you $75 if you go to the hospital.
Nope.
Nope.
Nope.
EMT punches him.
I'm enjoying the view.
Blood pouring down his face.
I'm enjoying the view.
I'm fine where I am.
Alford's lawyer, Stephen A. Cohen.
Stephen A. Smith.
Stephen A. Cohen.
I mean, what are we talking about?
Come on, man.
What are you talking about?
I talked to Kobe last night on the phone.
You're going to sit up here and tell me Rob Pelika is going to tell Magic Johnson that he's going to go and have people back and there ain't no backstabbing.
He told the Post, Stephen A. Cohen, that the 30 wedding guests.
If your name is Stephen Cohen, do not put the A in there.
You're putting it up for ridicule.
It's like naming yourself John Wilkes Sklar.
Just called by John Sklar. It's like, just called by
John Sklar.
You think it's going to go one way.
Michael B. Jensen.
Alfred's lawyer,
Stephen A. Cohen, told the
Post that the 30 wedding guests,
small wedding, have a
different version of what occurred.
I hope all 30 of them have different versions.
Hey, guys, there's 30 of us.
We can get one story right.
This is like the worst Rashomon ever.
As the incident, quote, did not play out as Mooney told police it did.
Facing charges of aggravated battery and criminal mischief,
Alfred was released from jail the following day after posting a $3,000 bond,
marrying his fiance soon after leaving jail.
Cohen said that his client planned to still go on his honeymoon on Tuesday.
And as he was at the altar, he said to his wife, don't get out of line.
See what happens?
See what happens when people don't listen to me?
Move when I tell you to.
So, Karen, how was your wedding?
Well, I learned something dark about my husband.
Don't push him
That is crazy
What a great
And insane story
Just get up and move
Work with the wise
Get up and move
It's just dumb people
Doing dumb things
Get up and move
But I feel like all four of us
Feel like we would be able
To talk someone into moving
Yes
I know for sure
I wouldn't even
I'd be able to hold on
To my $50
And not have to break a nose
And walk easy
Or if it's important enough, we'll shift.
Move the whole thing.
We'll shift.
Do we have to get this shot?
Right, exactly.
Or position people so that you're blocking them.
Yeah, block them.
And then just take a few pictures in front of him.
Like literally line the whole party up in front of him so you block his view, you block the sun.
Or put everybody behind him.
And now he's in the foreground and see how much he really wants to be in these photos.
And if he's sitting in a beach chair with a shirt off, I bet you it's going to be flattering.
And as you're walking by, kick so much sand up in him.
Into his business.
There you go.
Well, yeah, this dude is going to live like the back of a Boys Life magazine.
Now he's going to get the Charles Atlas book.
He's going to get strong.
He's going to start fighting groomsmen all around.
He's just going to mess with you.
There you go.
We've created an origin story for Team Money.
He just beats up husbands around the world.
Trevor Money, groomsman hunter.
That's right.
All right, there you go.
Story number two down the boat.
Dan, give us a little teaser of the third segment.

All right, you ready for this third story?
Yep.
Sent in by Zach Brinkman at Gimpy Smalls.
Here we go.
Hilarious.
A Texas grandmother got to be the queen of the oceans for a short time
when an iceberg throne she sat of the oceans for a short time when an iceberg
throne she sat on to pose for a picture drifted off into open water while on vacation in Ireland.
Or Iceland, I'm sorry.
Iceland.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So there's like...
Hey, grandma, go sit on that is a phrase you should never say.
That's a...
You're banking on a will at that point.
You're like
Hold on
If we can get grandma
To disappear on this
Iceland trip
We can be fucking
Making cash
I need $3,000
To pay my
I gotta pay bail
To get out of my
If I told you
The bills I have
That's just the tip
Of the grandma
Iceberg
That I want to
Sail away
The tip of a grandma
Iceberg
That you can't see
Honey
Honey Bye grandma Honey No you're still see. Honey, honey, bye, Grandma.
No, you're still within our...
Bye, Grandma.
We loved you.
Grandma, here, get on the iceberg throne.
What are you guys doing with all those hair dryers?
Why'd you kick it?
Why'd you kick it when I got on?
A pickaxe and a hair dryer.
What's your plan here, Ryan?
There she goes.
Like in a pool when you put a dog who's afraid of water
on a raft and then push it out a little bit
and they're just like, will the whole world change?
If my dog's swimming around and you pick
him up, he just keeps swimming until you put him either
back in the water or on land. We gotta find
some water for this kid. So that's what she was doing.
She was just drifting around. Judith Strang
and her son Rob were traveling in Iceland
recently when they stopped at Diamond
Beach, and I'm not even gonna try and say this,
for a great photo op on what looked like a throne straight out of Disney's Frozen.
It was shaped like an easy place to sit.
Grandmas love one thing, and that's the movie Frozen.
Let her go.
Let her go.
Get her out of here.
Meow, meow, meow.
Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow, meow.
You can tell by looking at the shape of it, and I thought it looked like fun, Strang told ABC News.
When I got on it, it started to totter and a wave was coming in.
By the way, totter is not a word.
And also, a grandma should never be like, that looks like fun.
Grandma should look at everything, especially things including ice.
This could break my hip.
This will kill me.
If you play the game of Iceberg Thrones, you win or you die.
She wanted to unite the seven kingdoms.
She had it.
Meow, meow, meow.
Some people would say this is actually a better
ending. She's actually Grandmother of
Dragons.
A very large wave came in
and kind of made the throne kind of rock
and I could tell I was slipping off.
Photos of the ordeal went viral after
Strang's granddaughter,
Catherine, shared screenshots of the hilarious
text from her father
on Twitter. Guys, I'm going to show you
this photo. She is out
there. Oh, shit, dude.
Oh, my God.
She's like heading towards the horizon.
Number one. Number two.
That's Iceland, so the water
is not... It's not like you can jump in like the Atlantic. That's Iceland, so the water is not...
It's not like you can jump in like the Atlantic.
It's very on brand.
Yeah.
Grandma's on ice.
Yeah, I know.
This is from her dad's text to his daughter.
Lost her kingdom when she drifted out to sea.
Dumb.
One of the texts said, no joke, a Coast Guard rescuer had to save her and bring her back to shore.
This guy's so cavalier about his mom.
Well, we don't need to get into the history between this dude and his mom.
Clearly, he's been trying to kill her on vacation for a decade.
He's like, we're going to Fallujah with Grandma this year.
Sit on that metal round thing in that field over there, Grandma.
I want to take your picture.
Let's play hopscotch in this minefield.
They don't promote it, Mom, but at this safari
you can pet the lion.
Get out and sit on it.
Go out and sit on it.
Go out and sit on it is something he said to her
a lot of times, and this is the first time
she actually listened to him, and then now she's
off into the ocean. The 77-year-old
from Flower Mound, Texas.
We know it, right? Our cousin Dennis
and Lori are from Flower Mound. Suburb of Dallas. One of my favorite Texas towns, Cut-and-Sound, Texas. We know it, right? Outside of Dallas. Dennis and Lori are from Flower Mound. Suburb of Dallas.
One of my favorite Texas towns, Cut and Shoot, Texas.
I'm scared by what you're insinuating.
Open Carry, Texas.
Told ABC News that she thought she was safe when she sat down.
Yeah, I bet that's when it changed.
Of course.
And that she had seen several people sit on it before she had her try.
Okay, you're 77.
Sorry.
Go ahead.
I was going to say, that's a grandma.
The grandma rule is if five of your friends do it and you do it.
It's literally a grandma rule, and she fell for it.
If all your friends jumped off the Tallahassee Bridge, would you do it too?
Yeah, grandma, I would if it looked like everybody was 75.
If all my friends had just committed suicide, I would be in a dark place.
I don't want any more friends.
Quote, I don't weigh very much, so it was a little easy to float off, I guess.
So she's fat shaming everybody else who's on this thing.
The sun is rolling his eyes in the back.
She loves talking about how little she weighs.
Six pounds.
Six pounds.
Everybody's got to hear about it.
Quote, I've always wanted to be queen.
That was my chance.
No.
What?
No. A bystander who happened to be a boat captain trained in water rescue.
How lucky did she get?
That is so lucky.
Quickly helped to bring the grandmother back to shore.
How did he do it?
How in the world?
I think.
He got on a boat?
Yeah.
When they say bystander, he must have been.
Because the guy says in his text that the Coast Guard rescuer had to save her and bring
her back to shore.
So they must have been nearby
watching this. Swam in maybe?
I don't know. Holy shit.
What a dummy. What a dummy!
Perfect for the show.
If you ever see an ice throne out there,
do not sit on it.
Never look for consistency in waves.
David Blaine sat on an ice throne
and look what happened to his career.
I will say this. Don't sit on an ice throne, but if you see anything that John Gabrus is doing, if he's doing something live, go see him.
If he's doing a podcast, go listen to it.
Dude, thank you for coming on the show.
Thanks for having me, guys.
I appreciate it.
I really, really appreciate it.
Oh, shit, we've got to get back to work.
