should sister of zip zap zap yeah dude improv did you guys do improv classes yeah what were your
thoughts on them why am i interviewing you guys this is your podcast i gotta leave anyways i
liked them a lot i like meeting the people there i thought it was like it was hit or miss with the
and the teacher like the coach like oh you've been with your teacher sometimes why they just
be like i don't think that's a good choice i was like i mean you're on one episode of it's always sunny
in philadelphia like i don't think you have that much credentials to like lean into me like that
oh nice like just one episode but would you voice that or would you just kind of feel that i would
feel that and then i'd be like oh okay i mean yeah i see where you're coming from i see where you're
coming from is like a passive aggressive way to be like i don't agree you know what i always thought
was interesting about the audiences is they're much more supportive at improv shows.
There's a lot more clapping, but it's kind of like a, like a frightened clap.
Yeah.
It's like, we need to support each other and we're having fun.
It feels like a school play where it's like friends and families in the crowd a little
bit.
Did you bring friends to like the graduation shows?
Well, I never made it to the graduation shows.
Oh, do you?
I got kicked out of a UCB one.
They're like, you missed your third one.
You're out of here. I'm like, like 500 for this shit yeah you saw i was hitting a fucking
open mic in a coffee shop all right no i did like just the classes so like i never got to perform
improv so i don't know no hate on them but like there's some really successful people in it but
uh it just wasn't for me i remember i asked the teacher one day i was like what is like how can
you practice improv outside of improv because stand up you know you hit mics and you're writing
this and that they're like the i was just like, live, eat, and breathe improv.
And I was like, what is that?
Is that a fucking t-shirt slogan?
Like, how am I supposed to do that?
Yeah.
Just like doing space work at a coffee shop.
I'm like, can I get more creamer for that?
Well, that was my ish with the, I bailed after, did you like UCB one and two?
But then I bailed after that because I wanted to practice.
Like, I wanted to do sex.
And they're like, yeah, you you gotta set up with a coach and then but then people in la are so like fickle that i
just couldn't get any yeah we got assistant practices yeah we got like some like shit
practices going but we had a private coach and the coach was literally just coming but yeah that was
good and you're like all right it was always funny when they needed to get paid too they'd be like
hey i'm gonna go to the bathroom real quick and then we all put our money together yeah i'll be
right back but uh yeah you just like leave it on the table they felt uncomfortable about like the commerce aspect yeah i mean they
know what they're doing they're like we're just gonna just say yes and no real quick mainly yeses
because improv out here and then just get 150 and get the fuck out of here right where are you from
uh ventura county oh you're from i'm from out here yeah i grew up in camarillo you know where
that is i think so yeah yeah it's just like literally between Santa Barbara and Los Angeles, like right in the
middle.
Nice.
Dude, what's that comedy club?
Ventura Harbor.
Ventura Harbor.
Ventura Harbor Comedy Club.
That's my hometown comedy club.
I started there when I was 17, dude.
That's a legendary spot for me, at least.
Yeah.
But it's like a lot of LA people will roll out there because it's like an hour and a
half drive.
It's not too bad.
And it's like, it's a good club.
Yeah.
It's like right out there.
And then Levity Live opened up like five minutes from there which is tough yeah because their first
weekend was like marlon wayne's david spade and they're like this guy who was on comic view in 03
yeah so but that yeah it's a legendary club for me you know i started out there how'd your set
at 17 go what did you talk about honestly it went good because there was family and friends in the
audience my second set, not good.
So the first set, I took a comedy class when I was 17.
Were you a virgin?
In sex or comedy?
Sex.
Yeah, I was.
Nice.
I lost it a couple months later.
I started doing stand-up as a virgin.
And then what happened?
At some point I had sex.
Were they correlated at all?
Well, I just remember everything I would write,
like everything I'd write was just about bro relationships
because that was what I knew.
I would never write anything about girls
because I was like, I don't know anything.
Yeah, my first set was like three,
like one-liner, like topical shit.
And then I did a story about how I got my car taken away
because I got a speeding ticket coming back from the beach. And then my parents took my car away, so I only had a skateboard. And because I got a speeding ticket coming back from the beach.
And then my parents took my car away,
so I only had a skateboard.
And then I got a helmet ticket
for not wearing a helmet
by skating past a school.
And then I had to go to a courthouse
and show the judge my helmet
in front of a bunch of other cases.
And this is Oxnard,
which is kind of a little bit tough of an area.
And there was dudes like,
yeah, I'm here for Grand Theft Auto.
I'm here for literally trying to stab somebody i'm like
yeah i got a helmet so that was my first story and i thought that was kind of neat because it
was like more of a story it wasn't like a like one-liner type shit or like some dirty bar joke
so i was like happy with that um i like that yeah it was cool so yeah i i i started off i i just
went straight dirty because i think everybody does though
yeah because you know it works yeah and i was i was just out of college and i was like
i was like what's what's funny to me and my friends it's like yeah yeah porn and huge jizz
loads and that's like what i talked about but yeah i was like snowstorms are just god just
blowing loads on the earth but i still thought that was like a breakthrough idea that would hit
to this day to be honest i
was a little racist too i did some racist stuff oh really yeah yeah i've pruned that out of my
life yeah i mean you're just looking for whatever's funny like it's not even like you're just like
sitting in the back of a shitty bar and you're just like thinking about like what is funny you're
like you're just making up all these hypothetical stories and you're like trying to make it funny
and it's not authentic and then you like find write about like real shit that's true to you and you're like oh i can make this funny yeah but it's
so like easy to like take that route of like just like what is dirty and what's funny so right try
not to do that but what's what's your like uh data because you you you have a pretty noticeably hard work ethic.
Thank you, man.
You're very consistent with all the stuff you put out.
Do you have a schedule that you go by, or are you just kind of naturally just chugging on the go?
Kind of like both.
So I try to post a video every Monday, except for this Monday, because I was burnt out.
I did a virtual show and it just fucking took the life out of me.
That's a tough thing. It's a lot of work. So I thought I was going to just be like a virtual show and just fucking took the life out of me so it's a lot of work so I thought it was gonna just be like yeah for sure go buy tickets
but it was like fucking draining so I took uh this week off but it's like I'll do that on Mondays
and our podcast comes out Wednesday so we'll usually record Monday or Tuesday and then Thursday
Friday I'll try to film and then in between that I'll try to edit nice so Saturday night live yeah
dude's fucking cranking around
because i've like i've had external editors and shit but like for the most part i'll get like a
cut back and i'm sure you guys have experienced this too you're like why what how did no i don't
then i'm like writing all these notes and then it's just like so extensive to the point where
i'll just be like hey just send me the file and i'll fix it right just because like the amount
of like going back on fourth emails it's just like i feel like i could have just done it do
you have writers no oh so you just write everything yeah or it'll be
like collaborative like when we're on set it'll just be like me and this guy churdley's we film
we film a lot together we'll just like bounce ideas off each other so we'll kind of go in with
like we just kind of improv a lot of it it'll be going with like a general idea like we just want
these two characters to be doing x y and z and then like as we film like kind of just like it takes a lot longer because there's no like script or anything
but i kind of like it because when you're in the moment it's funnier i feel like that's why like
riffs in an audience like you ever like riff the joke in an audience and it crushed and they tried
another show yeah and it bombs it's because it's in the moment and it felt right so we try to create
those in the moment feelings because like it just like it feels more like you're in character so
you're doing something your character would do instead of like like writing to me feels so like I'm at a coffee shop like words
Words words words, and then sometimes I look at it the next day. I'm like what the fuck is this?
Yeah, so I just like to just like kind of have an idea or like write a direction of it a premise
Then you guys sort of just go from yeah
I mean that's something like like my favorite shows like Reno 911 and that's kind of like what they did. They just be like,
this is what we want to do
and same with like Curb,
you know,
they just kind of go in there
and then just go for it
and it's like,
if you're a trusted actor,
then yeah,
the production's down for that.
Yeah.
But if nobody knows
your work,
they're like,
we need a fucking script.
You know,
you can't pitch a show
just being like,
we're just gonna fucking
get a camera
and go to a Kinko's
and they're like,
what is that?
Is Kinko's still open?
So,
we just try to like,
just kind of have fun with it.
I think because of the fun shows,
then it's like when you're on stage,
like if you look like you're having fun,
people will want to be like,
oh, this is fun, you know?
Instead of like taking it out on yourself,
like, oh, well that joke didn't work.
And they're like, this is awkward, you know?
Yeah, it's always weird.
Yeah.
When they get mad at,
when someone gets mad at the audience.
Oh yeah, because the audience is there,
they want to laugh.
It's not like they were yanked off the street
to like watch a shit bitch. It's like, yeah, we wanted to come to a comic club. Or they'll misinterpret why the audience is there they want to laugh it's not like they were yanked off the street like watch this shit bitch it's like yeah we wanted to come to a comic club or
they'll misinterpret why the audience pulled back they're like oh you didn't like that joke because
of this yeah and it's like that's not why they didn't like it you just like talk too fast and
like stepped on your punchline you're like oh you're all fucking idiots huh and it's like yeah
but you don't like it when someone gets political and we're like well no it wasn't that at all but
no one says anything so they still don't know yeah which you which it's hard because I remember I had to train myself,
and I'm sure you guys maybe dealt with this too in the beginning of stand-up.
You have to like – that's like an insecurity that you have when a joke bombs
where you're just like, you want to take it out.
Oh, that's not – or, oh, sorry, that's new.
It's like then people are just like, don't say that.
Just go on to the next joke, you know?
Yeah, insecurity sucks.
Tiffany Haddish talks about how she was in like
a comedy camp and richard pryor was like i can't remember the exact quote but it's to the effect of
like people came here to laugh they didn't come here to like you know hear your problems not
going to critique you this isn't agt you know yeah they like because a lot of people go on stage and
like they get just get too depressing and they're like oh too real dude too real and then it's like no dude we just wanted to like come
here and laugh and like have a good time and they're like people just try to bring up all
this like shocking shit and then it's well people listen to like five you know bill burr podcasts in
a row and they go on stage and be like i'm dude i would do that shit too like early on like the
flappers days we were like yeah you just listen to too much Bill Burr in like 2015 and you're like,
I'm Bill Burr.
And you take a giant political swing after doing a joke about like coming too
quick.
And it's just like,
there's no,
who is this guy you're doing on stage right now?
And the audience just doesn't believe you're smart enough.
And they're probably right.
Yeah.
It was also just like,
huh?
Like,
like you got to be a respected guy or at least like have a good premise and
then back it up immediately.
Right.
You know,
or Patrice O'Neill.
Like if people listen to a lot of Patrice O'Neill,
they go up there and they're like,
here's the thing about women.
A lot of them are sluts.
And you're like, whoa!
You're like, slow down.
Bold take in 2019, my guy.
And then they get insecure and they're like,
oh, I mean, I don't actually,
then they backtrack.
They're like, I don't actually mean that.
That's the thing.
I was like saying earlier,
if you look like you're having fun on stage,
then people will be having fun with you.
But if you're like,
if you look like you're not confident
about your material, they'll be like,
bro, you can't be just talking, throwing
bold statements out there like that. Yeah, the pilot has
to say he's going to land the plane. Correct.
Yeah. Wait, so where'd you go to college?
San Jose State. Oh, nice. Bay Area,
baby. What's their mascot?
Oh, yeah, you were right down the street. Spartans.
Nice. I feel like half the colleges are just like,
Spartan? Question mark? Like, they're just like, they don't,
they got real lazy with it they're like Spartans
Are bulldogs what do you guys want to do here were you doing
Comedy there yeah so they
Had like a like a comedy club
Like like a not like a perform
But like a club like a group of people
So we would do mics together it's pretty tight and then
We just like we'd do mics together and then
We'd all just meet up at a lecture hall one night and just run jokes
About each other it's pretty tight like I just like hit a mic
After class which was nice.
You still boys with those guys?
Like Facebook friends, but not really.
Like a lot of them stayed up there.
Did you do a frat?
I did.
Yeah.
So that was also a big plus.
I was in a fraternity and I had a disposal of like 50 frat dudes who were always down
to come to a show.
So I would like DM, like message like the San Jose Amprov or Rooster Teefeathers, if
you know that place, like, like legit clubs. And I'd Amprov or Rooster Teafeathers if you know that
place like like legit clubs and I'd be like hey can I do a guest set I'll bring 50 people
and the clubs are like they don't give a fuck what I do for five minutes they're just thinking
about like 50 people each person's ticket is like with drinks it's like 50 bucks they're just doing
math in their head like yeah do a guest set we don't care so like I was able to get in at clubs
like way way way way too early you know
so but not even like get in they were just like yeah here's a little guest set but i caught like
a wave of that like adrenaline we were like performing in front of like a couple hundred
people when you're it's like your third show which was good and bad it gave me a false sense i remember
i like taped my first set with like my phone on the ground pointed at me and i was like i'm sending
this to every club ever did you really i sent it to a lot of clubs and i was very confident about it and now i'm like don't i'm so glad that nobody
like ever looked at that like it was trash it was a camera on the ground yeah i did a comedy time do
you ever do that comedy time yeah with uh dude i submitted for that they're like you're too dirty
and i was like yeah dude yeah i was like i was like a year in i was like gotta get on comedy
time that's how you sort of do that's how you start to break in, you get
that tape that you can send to clubs. I mean, Angela Johnson
fucking blew up off that. Right, yeah, yeah.
So there's a little sense. And I had to pay
them to take my set down, because it was
so bad. Because it was
like up for like, you know, like two
or three years, and I was like, whatever, it's lost
the internet. Yeah, and then your shit started taking
off. Yeah, friends from high school were like, dude,
I saw your stand-up. And I'm like where where'd you see my stand-up they're like
comedy time and i was like yeah i messaged guy i'm like hey can you take this shit down
how much you have to pay him 150 bucks dude that's worth it it's a scam though you should
have taken it down yeah but because we monetize on the did it have a lot of views when they took it down? Like a thousand.
A thousand too many.
That bad of a set?
Nah.
I mean, I just didn't want it to be out there.
Yeah.
I don't think I've ever seen a video of one of my sets and been like, that's it.
I've been like, that'll pass.
Right.
If somebody sees that, that'll be okay.
Yeah. Yeah.
I did Laughs on Fox, but they never aired it.
Oh, yeah.
I remember that.
So, yeah, I did it. I hosted it. And then they're like, yeah, yeah, just sign laughs on fox but they never aired it oh yeah so uh yeah i did it i
hosted it and then they're like yeah yeah just sign here you'll be on i was like just because
i'm hosting i'll still be on it right they're like yeah for sure for sure and then i just like
i saw like uh like maddie chimber uh his part came out there was a bunch of people on that show when
i did it i forget who else uh whatever this is not important but uh all the people in the episode
were like aaron i was
like what's good when is my shit coming out and then they just ghosted me and then like a month
later i was like can i at least get my footage and then they sent me all my footage and it was
like four cameras so i edited it myself and then put it up there and it looked like it was legit
on laughs on fox oh nice and but the same thing happened where like my shit started doing like
decent and then people like oh this is fucking this guy was on laughs and i was like make kind of a film for it you know but yeah so yeah any
stand-up but like after each year that goes by like you'd see a set from a year ago but the fuck
am i talking about right so what was your first video that really blew up it was the zoomies yeah
zoomies on 2017 was that like a before and after moment where like oh everything's like different
now uh a little bit it was almost like a peek on the other side it was like a before and after moment where you're like, oh, everything's like different now?
A little bit. It was almost like a peek on the other side.
It was like a little like teaser, you know?
It's like you drove past a Hooters, but you caught a glimpse of a tit.
And you're like, oh, I know what's going on.
You drove by and caught a glimpse.
Glimpse, dude.
Someone was just reorganizing their breath.
Dude, yeah.
Somebody was just picking up dishes.
And you're like, yo, I see what it's like over there.
What's going on over there?
It's funny when you're like 14 and you're like dad look let's go to who do I do Burbank yeah
yeah and then you get there I was like I think I was like 70 when I went to my
first one but I was actually uncomfortable with how much they were
flirting I was so insecure she was like so what do you want it was like putting
her boobs in my face I was like look I know you don't really like me and
everybody was like Jesus dude relax I know your personalities little highs can get a better tip looking I just want the chicken salad yeah I'm like I know you don't really like me. And everybody was like, Jesus, dude, relax. You're just getting too real. I know your personality is a little high,
so you can get a better tip.
Look, I just want the chicken salad.
Yeah, I'm like, I know you don't want to really be doing this with me.
Just, I'll get the chicken salad.
That's so funny, because I went there for my 13th birthday.
The one in Burbank, right by Flappers.
Dude, they made me sing Happy Birthday.
They put a cup in my mouth.
I had to sing, like, the chicken song.
I was geeked out.
Are you more of a boob guy?
At the time, yes.
Right?
Isn't that the thing?
Yeah.
Then you get older.
That's when you become a man.
I had a bar mitzvah.
It didn't count for me.
When I started checking out asses, man.
You're Jewish?
Yeah.
I didn't know you were Jewish.
Yeah.
My mom's Jewish and my dad's Christian.
But in that realm-
The mom takes-
The mom's just like, we don't give a fuck.
Right.
No.
Override.
Well, I think if you're born, the Judaism is passed through the mom, right?
I mean, it goes both ways, but isn't it a matriarchal kind of hereditary?
Those are three words I don't know.
I'm just making up words.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tesla.
Matriculation.
Elon Musk.
Yeah.
Transit of property.
No, so it's like if the dad's Jewish and the mom's Christian, then you can be half and
half, but if the mom's Jewish and the dad's Christian, like if the mom, yeah, that's just how it is.
Right.
Which shout out to Jewish moms for just not taking no for an answer.
Right.
They're just one hundo.
And my dad converted, which says something about my mom, you know?
That's a long, long process, right?
I do not know.
I think my brother wanted to convert because he's working on Wall Street.
Oh, really?
That'll do it.
Nice. Like he was working on Wall Street for like three years and my dad's like, do you know Bill's trying to convert because he's working on Wall Street. Oh, really? That'll do it. Nice.
He was working on Wall Street for like three years, and my dad's like, do you know Bill's
trying to convert to Judaism?
I was like, oh, cool.
His wife's not Jewish?
No.
Amazing.
So just nobody in the family's Jewish, but he was just trying to go for it?
I think he just really likes Judaism.
There's a lot to like.
Yeah.
I mean, I think in your email blogs, you used to write like, you know, Dr. Lord Jewish,
and then just like let people know you're. Lord Jewish. And then just like,
like let people know you're Jewish in there.
So do you practice though?
Not really.
I did a lot as a child.
My mom like forced it so much onto me that it kind of like turned me away from it.
Yeah.
But like after I got a bar mitzvah,
my mom's like,
I did what I could.
Do you believe in God?
Uh,
yeah.
I mean,
I'm not,
I don't,
I don't know.
I kind of just like live,
dude.
I don't know what's happening in life ever.
Like,
like honestly, people like what happens after life? And I'm like, I don't know. I kind of just like live, dude. I don't know what's happening in life ever. Like, I'm like, honestly, people like what happens after life?
And I'm like, I don't know.
I don't want to think about it.
That's why I just cram my brain with like, just being busy and doing what I love to not
even think about that.
Cause like, dude, like I get my biggest anxiety comes when I'm hung over.
I'm laying in bed.
You guys have so much in common.
Yeah.
Chad gets massive hangovers too.
It's like whenever you're hung over, everybody decides to be the most successful person in the world like you're hungover you're laying in bed
you're not doing shit all your friends are booking netflix specials this guy's on a fucking wendy's
commercial and you're like i'm just laying in bed and i just post made it a gatorade bottle like it's
dude i'm just feeling down i feel you 100 so i just live i don't know what happens after but i
just try to get it now i guess you're sort of like the hunter-gatherer mindset of the modern age.
Because you're just out there doing stuff.
Foraging.
Instead of taking time to reflect on.
Right, which I don't know what the right thing to do is.
I don't mean that to be insulting.
No, no, no.
But it's sort of like you've got to keep going, which I like to do.
You just keep going so you don't have time to really stop and think.
Literally.
I want a balance of that, though.
Sometimes, I was in Utah last week, and it was nice.
I just went out just in the park city.
I'm trying to appreciate nature.
Yeah, it's hard, though.
I don't like it.
I don't like nature.
But I'm starting to learn to like it.
So it's just weird because you get out there, and you see the view, and you're like, all right, now what?
I did the thing.
I saw it.
I went on a hike, and I was like, oh, okay, it's the same view from the bottom.
And I kind of get get i don't know there's just so much stimulation that's so well designed
you know like a nice community a nice suburban community you can walk through nice nice video
on youtube or something yeah that's some vr hiking yeah yeah i mean dude pelotons you're like in the
fucking street you know there's cars honking shit. When all the protests were going on after the George Floyd murder, I was on my bike
and my black instructor was talking about, you know, how we need to progress as a society.
I was just bawling.
Dude, they're good.
They're amazing.
They have very great dedication.
They should, if Peloton doesn't work out, they should just go into a church.
Me and my boys are on a text thread.
We're all in love with Kendall.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Babe.
She puts together some good playlists.
Babe.
Yeah.
You know who I'm talking about.
Oh yeah, dude. I wrote a few Pellies in my life, dude. Do you have a Peloton? No, yeah, babe. She puts together some good playlists. Babe. Yeah, you know who I'm talking about. Oh, yeah, dude.
I wrote a few Pellies in my life, dude.
Do you have a Peloton?
No, I don't, but I went to a hotel once for, I was in Indiana recently, and they had a
Peloton in the gym, and I wrote it like twice a day for like five days in a row.
Right.
I made a connection to it.
It's a good workout.
I made a Peloton video, and then I got discouraged to put it out because the sound was shit,
but who knows?
Maybe I'll make it.
Did you always get bad hangovers?
I'm really curious about when i was probably around like 21 no 22 it was like senior year of college i was like
this is aggressive it flipped yeah yeah but there's only like when did you guys start drinking
because i feel like you get only a certain amount of like get out of jail free passes
okay yeah i was right around that was like eighth grade going to ninth grade yeah my like junior
senior year of high school we were like drinking like every weekend but i think it was just like
but with those you would get blackout drunk and then you'd wake up and be like oh i just need
water and you're fine but that's not the case like you're always fine you know right but i think you
just you only get a certain amount of those because like i had friends in college who didn't
start drinking until their freshman year of college and those guys like still don't get hung
over today i don't get hung over today.
I don't understand those people. I started when I was like 18, really getting after it.
And then once I got to like 20, 21, 22, I was like, I was just,
and I always had this sort of existential crisis every time I got hung over,
but not as bad but then it
really peaked at 21 really yeah and now it comes in quick yeah that's why i have to like occupy
myself like when i'm hung over i make it an effort to be like i'm gonna go to the grocery store today
yeah grocery store and do my laundry just always like just cramming my brain with like
activities so i don't have time to just be like zoned out yeah yeah as long as i'm around people
i'm okay i'm just so extroverted i feel that yeah I just have to make sure like in the morning I
just don't stay alone yeah yeah that I go like see somebody that's solid that's good advice that's
also yeah because like in college I lived in the fraternity and I never felt really alone or a
hangover because like you walk down the halls and there's just 30 dudes being like guess what I did
last night and everyone kind of was, I'm hungover too.
Yeah, you're on the same aspect to it.
Exactly.
You go get a fucking bagel and a coffee
and you're like, wow, this is great.
We should live like this forever.
Who are your comedy inspirations?
My favorite special that sparked my interest early on
was Nick Swartzen's Seriously Who Farted.
Have you ever seen that?
It just resonated with me because he was a guy
and everything he talked about was very bro-y and i just related to it and i was just like this
is like what i could see myself talking about yeah so that was like the first special like that i
watched that i was like dude this is like legendary and i was probably like like 17 16 i don't know i
don't know i forget when i came i I came out like 10 years ago or something.
But,
um,
yeah,
I just remember watching on comedy central.
I'm like,
this is my favorite.
Yeah.
It was so good.
Do you know him now?
Uh,
we met at the comedy store one time and,
um,
yeah,
I mean,
I think we're like cordial with each other and we like follow each other,
but that's it.
But it's not like,
what's up dude?
Sick fucking boomerang.
You posted to everything about just messaging.
Hey bro,
you want to go?
I said,
happy birthday to him. And, him and he didn't respond.
No, he didn't?
But hey, birthdays are a tough one because they get like 50.
Dude, certain shit like that is weird
because certain people will follow you.
As you guys know, you guys probably have some random people
who follow you and you're like, what? Do I DM them?
And then you DM them and they're like,
for sure.
And you're like, I thought you loved me. You followed me.
That means you're like the homie. yeah i started dming people though really when once covet happened i was like
why am i worried yeah there's no point like the whole world's gonna end so i just would be like
rory scoville i'd be like hey dude big fan good work yeah and then like a day later he'd be like
hey thanks man i was like no yeah when certain people like macklemore followed me out of the
fucking so out of the blue yeah so there was a picture the other day that like popped up on air of like him, like with
his hair looking all crazy.
And then I went to go show it to somebody.
I clicked on his profile and I was like, follow back.
And I was like, what the fuck?
Which is funny because for one year for Halloween, I dressed up as him in college.
Like one of the thrift.
Yeah.
You guys kind of look alike.
Yeah.
In the thrift shop days.
Cause like when his hair was slicked back and all that.
So it was like really full circle.
So I DM'd him.
I was like, dude, funny story.
I have a picture where I dressed up as you for Halloween.
I'm a huge fan.
Like, you know, some people will say he's not, I don't know,
the sophisticated rapper.
Yeah, he's very successful.
But I love his music, dude.
What's the song that's got just that thumping chorus?
It's like, can't you hold us?
I know what you're talking about.
Can't hold us.
It's in the Ashton Kutcher Jobs movie.
Ain't nobody hold up.
Thrift store?
The one after thrift store.
The feeling can't hold.
Dude, that song?
I'll run through a wall after I hear that.
Thrift store also though
was massive. Good song.
But I know which song you're talking about.
There's one about being gay.
I thought that was nice.
He's gay?
No, he did one about like.
He has a daughter and a wife now, but he, but one of the bars was just like in the third
grade.
I thought I was gay.
That was just a bar up top.
But in the third grade, didn't we all?
Dude.
Yeah.
Third through 30, whatever I am now.
Third through 32.
I had an experience.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
What do you mean?
I was just joking. It's up to you. Yeah. Yeah. What do you mean? I was just joking.
It's up to you.
Yeah, it's up to you.
But yeah, that's like the level of where you're like, do I just reach out?
Do I say what up?
But then sometimes you forget these people are so, so famous.
They're like, oh, fuck, I feel seen.
I just wanted to follow you to laugh, not interact.
That's interesting.
You might be fucking with their experience of how they experience you.
Yeah, but I also just don't want to ask for anything.
I just want to be like, what's up, dude?
I saw you followed me.
Tie it.
I wonder if they're like half and half.
There's half that need that sort of like, dude, I followed you.
You better message.
And then there's half that are just like.
I'm just here for the content.
They're just like, oh, they messaged.
Actually, I don't know if I could see someone being like, oh, they messaged me.
I just want to.
I don't know, dude.
I feel like they'd be stoked
there's this guy who's
on the cast of
It's Always Sunny
which is my favorite
show and I thought
he followed me so I
DM'd him and he just
left me on scene
I was like dude what
the fuck
I was like I literally
love all you guys
he might just be
flirting too
he's just waiting for
the next time he gets
it's a long game
yeah
the internet's a weird
place like what a
follow means doesn't
mean what you think
it means 100% of the
time
it feels like it.
It feels like it every time.
It should be like, you follow me, like, you fuck with me.
We're boys.
Like, I can dab you up.
It does feel like they love you, though.
You're like, wow.
You, like, made that choice.
Yeah.
It feels like if I saw you in public, I could be like, what's up?
But I did that one time.
The one time I've been to Catch LA, which is the most fucking influencer place ever,
at a table.
It's, uh...
Where the fuck is it?
Is it, like, a club?
No, it's, like, a rooftop restaurant, but it's just some, like, it's just some like dumb bougie shit but it's like no boot but on a roof
so fuck but it was like all these like marshmallow was there and he's at a table with a bunch of
these people and one of the dudes there followed me no no did he have his head on no so it was
like his is like i knew who it was based on like he's some other dj right right but i knew who that
was before him so i go to say
what up because i literally did marshmallows cooking show on youtube right and i was like
what's up man he's like hey like a fan but he didn't want to be like outed and i was like we
follow each other and he's like and i was like i'm gonna go to the bathroom yeah it was really
awkward well he's a very unique one too because he Yeah, he didn't want to be like, who does he think I am?
I don't know.
That was like a Nick Cage you just did.
Could be.
Who does he think I am?
Who does he think I am?
I don't know.
It's just like you get wrapped up in it.
Because in my head, I'm like, if you follow me, we're boys.
For sure.
I think the same thing.
My mom follows me.
We're boys.
Or even around guys where they're like, dude, this chick followed me.
And he's like, dude, she's into you.
Yes. Yeah. Right. me were boys you know or even around guys where they're like dude this chick followed me and he's like dude she's into you yes yeah right yeah i remember when we when we had like after our house
party video this like hot influencer followed me and uh and i saw it and i was like i was like
messaging i was like dude what do i say like she just followed me and they're like all right
they're like i don't know dude just like uh looking it, I'm like, you shouldn't have said anything.
That's ridiculous.
But when it first happened, you see the paycheck mark.
You're like, whoa, she's super hot, and I need to say what's up right now.
And then you do, and they're like, thanks.
Dude, I messed with Dan Bilzerian.
That one time I was like, are you happy?
And then he was with a bunch of girls, and one of them laughed.
And then one of the girls that laughed messaged me the next day and was like,
hey, I was one of the girls last night. I like your stuff the girls that laughed messaged me the next day and was like, hey, like I said,
I was one of the girls last night,
like your stuff really funny.
So I was trying to play it cool.
So I waited six months before I respond.
And then I just went back, sweet.
Literally though, in this day and age,
she probably still thinks about that message.
Oh, you think so?
Yes.
She's going to DM you back in a year.
Girls double what you do.
If you text back in six minutes,
she'll take 12.
You take 12, she'll take 24.
I'll have to let her know I'm wif year up now dude i still show people that that damn
blizzard video it's out front of the store it is it was funny watching him in the store watching
stand-up comedy what does he laugh at like that was what was so interesting to me is like someone
would be like so i got a parking ticket and he was just like what what are you talking about
there's no parking attendance on my island. Yeah. That's so funny.
Yeah.
He didn't seem to laugh much.
He looked confused for the majority.
I could see that.
Yeah.
It's a lot of just sitting in one place.
I feel like anxiety would hit.
He's a little more dynamic than that.
Yeah.
He's always on the go.
And he's like, I haven't shot a gun in an hour.
Yeah.
I haven't heard a gun go off.
Yeah.
I need to hear bullets.
Yeah.
That was so funny when he was at.
Not funny.
Oh my God.
Wrong way to frame it.
But when the horrible Las Vegas shooting happened and then he became like a side story of it because
he was there that day oh and he had like guns and was like he was like on video being like someone
get me a gun i appreciate it dude i mean not a lot of people in this world would be like
fucking it's like dan bazarin and like anybody who supports insane clown posse are like the only
people that would like fucking just dive head in for that. You're right. That is pretty admirable that he would run towards the danger.
It's wild.
Have you been in many fights and stuff like that?
I've been hit, but I've never been in a fight.
Who hit you?
A bouncer in college one time did.
Really?
Dude, bouncers are out of control.
Dude, I didn't...
Well, the thing is, I didn't know that they could hit you when I was in college.
$2 Tuesday, which makes sense.
So how bouncers would kick you out
in college and I think they do that everywhere they'd be like hey man
can I have a word with you outside and I knew
what was happening but I'm like I'm playing
cool right and he's like yeah just come this way
and I was like for sure for sure and then he's like yeah let me talk
to you he opens the door and then he kind of
like pushes me out and then he goes like slam
the door and I catch the door right here
a moment and I fling it back open
like nah i'm getting
back in this bar and then he does like a flinch at me and then me i just go what and then he just
winds up and wow dude i have clock me i have like if you look at the right it's like shout or there's
like somewhat of like a scar right here oh he busted you up a little bit it was blood yeah
oh and i left a voicemail at the bar it's so embarrassing i remember i called nobody answered
i was like i'm a fucking, so fucking, he hit me.
And then all they have to do is like, yeah, he's drunk.
I was like, ah.
It was just so funny.
The next morning, I was like, why did I leave a voicemail?
That's hilarious.
I'd love to hear that.
I would not.
I tried to get into a Vegas strip club when I was 20, and they took my boy's fake ID right
in front of me.
So I just peeled off and was like, I'm out of here.
And then the bouncer was like, show me your ID.
Show me your ID.
I was like, I'm not coming inside, dude.
He's like, show me your ID. And I was like, no. And he's like, show it to me. And I was like, dude, I'm out of here. And then the bouncer was like, show me your ID. Show me your ID. I was like, I'm not coming inside, dude. He's like, show me your ID.
And I was like, no.
And he's like, show it to me.
And I was like, dude, I'm not going to show it to you.
And then, but then I got cocky.
He was like, he was like kind of huffed out.
He was like, okay, there's nothing I can do.
And I went, that's right.
And then right when I said that, he went, bang.
He just jabbed me in the throat.
And I dropped to the ground.
I was like.
Yeah, they look for those far up words.
They look for those keywords.
I was like, oh, I can legally beat his ass now.
I think that's what it is.
Then that's right.
Top tier.
And then my friends picked me up and then he was like, I didn't hit you.
And I was like, you didn't hit me.
And then they're like, all right, you can leave now.
Vegas is so funny.
I remember my friend got caught with cocaine in a bathroom at Hakkasan.
And the guy was like, you can't come back till tomorrow.
Just 24 hours.
Not tonight, but tomorrow yeah i got
banned for bringing weed into that place they ban you but then the promoter i was like you need those
guys who help you get into clubs oh yeah he was like bro it's not a real ban i'll get you back in
in an hour and i was like no no i'll just go somewhere else you brought weed to a club yeah
it was aggressive i brought an edible in my pocket and then i always try to be honest they caught me
and they're like what is this and i was like weed they're like stay right here we'll be right back
yeah and then they watched me outside they're like, what is this? And I was like, weed. They're like, stay right here. We'll be right back. And then they walked me outside.
They're like, you can't come back for a year.
Damn, I would not want to be on an edible in a club.
I don't know if I could.
Dude, sometimes it backfires.
Sometimes it gets sideways on you and you get freaking out.
But sometimes it can make it all like you can just zoom out of what the experience is
and be like, this is just insane in kind of a fun way.
Yeah.
Do you guys smoke a lot?
I do.
I went seven months without
but lately i've been smoking a lot yeah do you i go through phases yeah yeah same i like it because
it's like a new perspective i feel like if i have like creator's block or like writing or something
or sometimes i just like smoke and just let my brain go wherever and usually out of that i'll
come up with a few ideas some are trash some are like oh this could be a thing but i like it because
it gets me out of my head it feels feels like I'm hanging out with somebody.
A different person.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm like riffing with myself.
Yeah.
I think what happens to me, when I start to do it too much, it just changes.
I have a new reality.
It's like my weed reality.
And then I forget what my normal reality is.
Yeah.
Where I'm like, do I?
I'm like, oh, I always feel like this.
I'm like, no, you always feel like this when you're on weed.
But that's not actually how you would normally feel.
And that's when I got to switch it up but i actually microdose shrooms today
okay like before this yeah do you feel it i feel a little bit of something oh yeah how much did you
eat like a stem and a half and like half a cap yeah yeah people are big on the microdose life
it's my first time trying oh really yeah nice, I heard you can get little pills. Oh, really?
They grind it up.
Yeah.
To the kids out there, though, be safe.
Don't start doing this at two-year-olds.
Yeah, maybe don't.
Microdose, yeah.
Don't do it.
Wait until you have a 401K and then do a microdose.
I'm in my 30s.
There you go.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It felt rhythm-wise like it was something else.
Yeah.
It felt like someone was going to be like, where do you? Yeah, I don't know. It felt rhythm-wise like it was super healthy. Yeah. It felt like somebody was going to be like, where do you?
Yeah, I don't know.
And at San Jose, were you in a frat?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Where would you party?
Would you go downtown San Jose,
or would you just party in the frat?
A lot of the parties at our frat,
but when you turn 21, it's like,
oh, we're going downtown.
You go downtown?
Because once you turn 21, you're like,
oh, I'm too old for you peasants. You can't get into a bar yet
So you would like do bar shit and then you got on like weekdays and shit. Yeah, right
Do you like partying?
I've only seen you at one party and it was a we were at a chain smoker chain smokers birthday
And then I had a bailout. You were pretty fucked up I was hammered that day
but dude you were killing it
was I?
you were making out with someone
oh turn up hell yeah
I remember that
we were like Trev
yes I do remember that
you turned around and you were just like sucking face
I was like nice Trev
there's nothing tackier than just being that drunk make out i thought it was awesome there's nothing tackier
but there's there's it's enviable too it's very enviable i remember that was the dan band was
there right they were playing yeah i think so that was so cool that was really neat that got
you erotic yeah because i was drunk and i was like it was this fucking random guy in a car
mechanic he goes oh shit yeah um but yeah dude i remember that because that party started in the
daytime and i was like dude i like if i drink the day, it takes a while for me to get drunk.
I'm sweating, blah, blah, blah.
Fast forward.
It's night out and I'm hammered, dude.
I fell asleep that night in my clothes, just like sitting on my bed, not under shoes on
everything.
Love it.
And I remember I was like, I talked to the girl next morning.
I said, what happened?
Like, why didn't we hook up?
She's like, you were in my Uber and you said you wanted to just go home alone. I was like, what happened? Like, why didn't we hook up? And she's like, you were in my Uber and you said you wanted to just go home alone.
And I was like, what a bitch Trevor is, dude.
But that's probably for the best.
Look it up for yourself.
Dude, there it is.
Yeah.
You didn't feel like you had that connection yet.
No.
I was like, I got to wait until I black out again.
But yeah, I forgot about it.
That was tight.
That was like my first like LA, LA party, I think.
Mine too.
Yeah.
I've never been to something like that.
Yeah.
It's where you
like look around because I went with Justin Sherman and he was so drunk I love him he was
so funny he was hammered he was the drunk where he comes up and he's like look man I need to talk
to you about something like no we talked about this 10 minutes ago yeah yeah yeah yeah um I just
remember like looking around and being like oh that's so-and-so oh that's so-and-so oh that's
so-and-so and then I'm like why am I saying these things like it doesn't matter yeah like i'm gonna go
talk to him you know yeah how do you how do you like the hollywood scene like because personally
i've been to like we've been to like that party and stuff and i'm like it's like a cool it's like
a novelty but it's not like it's sort of like i kind of always just want to go back to my crew
yeah well that's the thing i think if you're with people you enjoy being around,
it's dope because you're having fun at a social event.
But if you're by yourself or you're like,
so it just depends on the group you're with.
Really?
It's like,
cause it's fun when you know people.
It's like,
it's like,
I mean,
it's like,
I remember coming to open mics when I first moved to LA and you don't know
anybody.
You're like,
this isn't fun.
Like I'm doing jokes.
I'm bombing.
I'm going home.
But when you started to go to mics and you would see people, you know like you guys i'd be like oh fuck yeah you know these dudes are
here you know and then it's like the more people you know how to play some more fun it is so like
in the beginning it's like weird but then we go to a hollywood event it's like oh dude i did a
video with that guy oh fucking i met you know her at blank so it starts to become fun right i like
being a tourist i don't think i'd ever want to be like a resident where I'm like always going to those things.
But like we went to another one.
We went to like Demi Lovato's Halloween.
I was the first one there.
Okay.
Because I was.
Yeah, for sure.
I was worried we wouldn't get in.
So I should have first, but like two hours.
Really?
Yeah.
And then I ran into her.
What'd you do?
I just hung out, dude.
I just went by the bar and I was like.
Yeah.
You're a very sociable person though.
So it's probably easy.
Yeah.
It wasn't that I was, I was feeling myself that night.
I was feeling really good.
You know, you have those nights where you're just like, dude, I think I got it tonight.
I think Demi Lovato's my wife, yeah.
Yeah, right.
Damn, that's tight.
Yeah, but I think-
Sorry, Demi, I know you're going through a hard breakup and stuff, too.
But I'm also here for you two hours early.
I think what you're saying is true.
It's like, you go to a few of those, and they go, oh, you guys are there, right?
But if you see the same people every time, it becomes to be like, oh, this person lives for these moments.
The Tao, we always do.
Tao was a great mic, dude.
I loved it.
It was like the closest.
I think it's bad.
You know what's funny about those mics, too?
It was the collision of personalities.
You know what I mean?
You'd have a few super prim and proper people.
You'd have a few psychopaths,
and you'd be like,
how are these things going to interact?
Right, you would get somebody
who got like dared at their office
to do stand-up.
They have three other coworkers. And and then you get jeff up
there who i love watching go up there just fucking laying carousel yeah they unfairly send people to
war and then they die and then you pussy artists talk about nonsense about your frappuccinos not
made right i don't know we'd always be talking about uh roofing and being on a roof and like
falling off a ladder and talking shit and he'd like point at people like talk shit um yeah like if you didn't do that kind of work he just thought you were like oh yeah
biggest bitch yeah but it'd be funny you ever fixed a roof bar you're like not dude there's
no men anymore they don't have to fix a tire i've been in eight firefights god yeah and then the
next person going up would be like so my cat purrs a little too loud i would hate following
carousels because he'd be like you like, you're just a fucking white boy.
And I'm like, yeah, you're right.
But then you come on his side, and he's like, no, you're good.
You're serious.
Yeah, I know.
He's a sweet guy.
It was a good mixture, though, because the owners would be in the back and be like, well,
we kind of want your $5.
So just chill a little.
But the group, they wouldn't turn anybody away unless it was crazy insane.
But that one was a little more off the map.
So then you'd find the Marty's people who would find out about that and be like, yo,
I'm about to turn this bitch to a 10.
But yeah, I like that mic because it was honest.
It was feedback.
It was dope.
And you started to see a lot of people that-
Good balance.
Yeah, I remember seeing you guys there and Maddie Chimber was there a lot.
Just random people who are still doing it, which is tight to see those people doing it.
The only mic where you could actually get audience participation.
Yeah.
Where you're like, okay, this is a mic where I can go to
where I think people will be laughing.
Yeah, they would laugh.
That's true.
It was always a good room.
No, I liked it.
It was definitely a commitment, though.
You had to get there early, sign up, wait, go get food, come back.
But that was like you'd spend a couple hours doing that.
But it was worth it. Because if you left there feeling like you crushed, you get food, come back. But that was like, you'd spend a couple hours doing that. But it was worth it.
Because if you left there feeling like you crushed,
you're like, whoa, should I shoot a special at that place?
Yeah.
I always think shooting a special in front of just a couple people
would be more preferable for me.
A thing?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I see people doing it in front of 1,200 people.
That's just insane because there's no read on what's happening.
That's what I mean, yeah.
It just feels different than regular stand-up. Yeah, I feel like something like the size of the OR would be great because there's no like read on like what's happening. That's what I mean. Yeah. It just feels different than regular standup.
Yeah.
I feel like something like the size of the OR would be great because it's personal.
There's connectivity.
And it's still like when a joke lands, it's loud as fuck.
You still get a big laugh.
Yeah.
Exactly.
But like when Birded is in an arena, I'm like, how do you, like you're not connecting with
anybody.
You're, but I mean, he's just so funny that like he doesn't need that.
The material stands alone. Yeah, exactly. And that's really what it is he's a fucking professional
he just talks and then the audience is like we listen but i like to be like feel like the zone
that i'm in right wait so are you doing driving shows right now that's a mixture of all types of
shit i've done outside shows uh or i'm going like out of state to do clubs that are like half capacity,
which those are great because any comedy club that's like half capacity,
but seated,
right?
Like not like,
cause if it was usually half capacity,
it'd just be up front and be like,
no,
like,
like back and forth of like the laughter.
But like with this is dope because it's like they seat it fully,
but there's gaps in between tables.
So it's just like,
it feels like a normal show.
So it's been really fun to do it.
But you got to go to states like Wisconsin or like Indiana to do it.
But it's tight.
And then some outside shit.
What about you guys?
Nah, no stand-up.
We haven't done any stand-up in like seven.
We're doing a show like November 14th in San Diego.
Wales, Virginia.
Yeah.
Oh, what are you guys doing for it?
I was just down in San Diego and it was like, there's this beach show that I was supposed
to do, and then the cops just drove on the beach, and we're like, no.
Yeah.
Really?
Wow.
That's pretty exciting.
Did you think about leading a revolution, like standing up to the cops?
No, I was like, we should have said it was like a memorial, but like, dude, this is for
the dead homie, and then they're like, oh, this is awkward.
They're like, sorry, we're shutting your show down.
You're like, don't say sorry to us.
Say sorry to Kevin.
Then we just pointed at the sky.
Oh, that's a smart move we should have but then they
didn't but um just start chanting a random name at cops kevin yeah exactly what's going on yeah
kevin was died because he was hit by a cop car but that's fine we'll shut it down for you guys
where are you guys doing your show i don't know it's a it's a drive-in one right yeah are you
guys they laugh do they honk i've done a few driving ones it's awkward so what
you the best advice i got was from uh dave williamson yeah he was doing burke christian
shit and he's like just look for or like listen for like pockets like if there's a car up front
that like laughs a lot just judge all your stuff you mean honks a lot well sometimes they have
their like windows rolled down so like that's kind of like or they'll like sit on your on their hood because each car is like just like located like a certain area
so they like sit outside and like but i also did one was just horns and honking it's weird but you
also just like you just do it you could play with that a little bit a little bit yeah nice honk or
oh yeah like you honked it'll just get fucking heckled by a civic and it's like everybody gets
that it's hard, you know?
So I thought it was, are you guys doing like one-on-one or like a two-man show?
One-on-one.
But we're going to pull up in Chad's lifted Ford Ranger onto the stage.
That's fucking tight.
Yeah.
And you guys are obviously headlining it, yeah?
I think so.
It's our face on the promotional stuff.
Yeah.
As you can tell, we're really detail-oriented guys.
I know.
I'm like trying to set you guys up for a shameless plug on the 14th.
You're like, what's it called again?
Where can we get tickets?
Is the crowd at the clubs that you're doing, does it feel like you're getting the anti-mask
people as your crowd now versus what it would be ordinarily?
I don't it's hard to say because the states i've been to are like states you think wouldn't wear a mask you know like wisconsin i thought would be like very fuck it they kind of laugh about it so
everybody has to wear a mask into the club then once they're seated they take it off so i don't
really know and i don't meet the people after just because obviously i'm not going to take pictures
with like hundreds of people after this shit smart yeah so i don't really know i don't really know and i don't meet the people after just because obviously i'm not going to take pictures with like hundreds of people after this shit smart yeah so i don't
really know i don't really get engaged on the audience i kind of just pull up do the shit go
to the green room chill once people leave go back out nice but um yeah you can imagine there's a
little bit some people are still like sitting in the crowd with their masks on when they're seated
but for the most part like even the people who i'm sure you guys know who are like very like scared
of like Corona,
not leaving the house,
like Lysol and their bag of chips and everything.
Even those people have started to like loosen up.
I was that person.
Yeah.
And now a lot of people knew somebody.
Now I'm doing this.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, um,
yeah,
it was to the point where like,
even like my like best friend,
like I was like,
Hey,
he got a new puppy.
I was like,
can I come by and see it?
He's like,
we can like FaceTime.
I was like,
I just want to like be outside and see your dog.
He's like,
Oh,
he wouldn't even do an outside hand.
No. See, I'm at the point now where I'm like outside hangs. I'm like, I'm want to be outside and see your dog. He's like, I don't want to. Oh, he wouldn't even do an outside hang? No.
See, I'm at the point now where I'm like, outside hangs, I'm totally kosher with.
And I just keep my distance and just throw an elbow bump.
Yeah.
And that's it.
But even now, that guy, he was actually in Salt Lake at the same time as me when I was
doing shows out there.
And then we went to a club after.
So people, even the craziest people I know are loosening up.
You went to a nightclub?
It was like a bar.
Nightclub is such an antiquated term, too.
It is.
You think of just like One Oak and then European techno music.
Yeah, exactly.
Have you guys ever seen Super Troopers?
Yes.
When they're pulling up in that song.
Be-dum-bum-bum-ba-beam-bum-bum-bum-bow-wow.
That one?
Dude, I just got into the groove.
I love that song.
Holy shit, man.
Yeah, it might be the microdose.
Holy shit, dude.
Yeah, that was different.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But but yeah i don't know i i'm just waiting for like southern california shit to
open up i guess but like people are running like bootleg shows right now it's really funny dude
i've been uh i've been rallying for disneyland i've been hitting some protests and disney i want
disneyland to open dude i saw a picture on like twitter the other day there's people like boycotting
out front they're like, Elsa says open up.
And I'm like, this is hilarious.
That's me.
Is that you?
I'm out there, dude.
Are you guys going to do it?
With my Mickey ears.
Really?
On an Apple box.
Fighting for my rights.
On an Apple box.
Chad didn't want to be filmed because he was so emotional.
Wait, did you actually do it?
Yeah.
And he was so emotional.
He was like, don't film me because it's too much passion.
I feel that, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Space Mountain needs to open.'s why i said did you guys do a video for disneyland
we're gonna we're gonna definitely but we we need chad to like get it yeah yeah i can't i can't you
know it's it's you know there's few things i cannot be light-hearted about and at this moment
i just can't be light-hearted about disneyland i feel that man it's it's a big one they are open though right or no no where are
people I'm Disney World maybe in Florida Florida's just fucking open yeah Florida's popping off dude
Florida is open Florida's like we're doing comedy clubs at 90 capacity I'm like just do 100 what is
the fucking 10 gonna save right you save a two top in the back yeah yeah what's a two-top table oh nice sounds like a tube top
it's good jargon dude two-top yeah yeah sorry you know he's throwing out like film jargon i was
just throwing out like table jargon i love it are you starting to get more sort of like do you have
like a writer now when you go to oh like what i demand in a comic club yeah it's just like i
literally just like can there just be iced coffee that'sced coffee. Big coffee guy. Love it. Nice.
All about it.
Because I'd rather go up on stage like hungry, haven't eaten in an hour,
and then just riddled with caffeine, you know?
Because I hate eating before.
It slows you down.
It slows you down.
You just like feel.
There's nothing worse than feeling like a bacon cheeseburger in the back of your throat when you're being like, America's crazy, huh?
And then just like.
Why is performance better when you're a little hungry?
We did a city council speech like a week ago, and I ate a big fat godmother sandwich beforehand.
And I was like, oh, I don't feel like talking anymore.
I think it makes you more focused.
Yeah.
Your body's just not.
Heightened senses.
Heightened senses because if you, to get into like the whole like intermittent fasting thing,
when you eat that sort of, all your energy sort of goes towards the digestion and sort
of your body's like signal to like relax,
like,
all right,
focus on digesting the food.
But when you're,
when you haven't eaten for a while,
your body's a little bit more alert.
Like I need to get this food.
It's rest time.
Yeah.
When you,
after you eat lunch,
I'm like the whole,
my whole day is fucked.
Yeah.
What do you do?
Diet?
Not really.
You eat ice cream a lot.
Sometimes I like ice cream.
I had ice cream last night.
Yeah. What about you guys? What's your guilty pleasure in the sweet? I like ice cream a lot? Sometimes. I like ice cream. I had ice cream last night.
Yeah.
What about you guys?
What's your guilty pleasure in the sweets?
I like ice cream.
I like chocolate.
I like ice cream.
Solid.
Dude, I love all that shit.
I just never grew it.
I just like chips.
I love tortilla chips.
Okay.
Good tortilla chips and salsa is great.
It's the best.
You go to a good Mexican restaurant and they have good salsa and chips.
I'm like, fuck the burrito, dude.
When we're Southern California guys, too. It's kind of in the DNA.
Yeah. Yeah. A hundred percent. How do you guys feel about california burritos
you guys on deck french fries yeah yeah big fan yeah great i was just yeah san diego the show got
canceled but i got some fire tacos i was like i don't even give a fuck about the show getting
canceled last time i went to san diego to get tacos i went to a place that wasn't that good
and i was like what are the chances dude you gotta just call the owner and be like shut dude you gotta
move to like escondido or something embarrassment to encinitas yeah i was like get out of town get out of here dude
holy shit you ever you ever had wiener wiener circle no there's one in chicago it's called
wiener circle it's like iconic like back before like pc movement was like insane you they like
they cuss at you they're like they get mad at you okay i've seen part of this yeah yeah and then
they went there for like an episode of Insomnia.
There's a thing that you could use to do.
This was like five years ago, but way back before the world wasn't so agitated with just
doing anything wrong.
But you could give them $20 and it's called a milkshake.
And they'd turn the lights on and off and they'd flash their tits at you.
They can't do that anymore.
I don't believe so.
There's a bar I used to go to
in my hometown
that had pictures of boobs
all over the men's bathroom
and then they had pictures of dicks
all over the women's bathroom.
Got new ownership.
All the photos are gone.
Yeah, it's kind of terrifying
for the girls.
You're just like trying to pee
and there's just hella dicks
looking at you.
Right.
I mean, I don't know
if they enjoyed it as much.
Live chat.
My mom loved it.
My mom would be like,
I'm taking friends to Swallows
to show them the bathroom.
It's called Swallows?
That makes sense.
Because the birds, the birds fly to San Juan Capistrano, although they stopped doing that
San Juan Capistrano.
Yeah.
Where is that?
It's a-
I've only heard it in movies.
Right next to San Clemente.
San Juan Capistrano.
I just pick another obscure landmark to compare it to.
It's right next to the 76 off the 7.
You're like, what the fuck?
It's right where El Adobe is, if you want to get speaking of Mexican food.
Oh, hell yeah.
Hell yeah.
No, so it's like South Orange County.
That's where I grew up the majority of my life.
Great name to it.
It sounds like just like you're made of like, you have suits made of like prosciutto.
Just Adobe all over me.
San Juan Capistrano.
Just clay.
I'm just made of this really beautiful red clay.
Yeah.
Did you guys ever go to missions growing up?
I think I would have won, dude.
Mission San Juan Capistrano is a classic one.
You have a mission in your-
There's a mission there.
My friends went to Mission Parish School.
Fuck.
Well, now they're, you know, my school that I went to is J. Sarah High School, named after
the famous-
J. Sarah.
Father who, you know, took, father in the Catholic sense, who went through California
and built all the missions.
But now, you know, they're doing a little bit of a reevaluation of him.
A little bit of imperialism, a little bit of slave labor.
Uh-oh.
Are they taking down the statues?
I think so.
Damn, dude.
They took them down somewhere.
Yeah, they took them down in middle California.
Dude, that's, that's, yeah.
Damn, what do you do?
You're just like dead and they're like, fuck that dead guy.
Dude, I think at some point you just say sayonara to these people.
You're like, bro, you had a good run.
Time for new statues.
We gave you statues.
We respected you for 300 years.
Put George Foreman up there.
We got to reevaluate you.
Yeah, we're going to put George Foreman up there.
Great girls.
Yeah, are these statues being replaced?
I think so.
They need to be.
At some point.
Yeah, because they got to.
It's a perfect place for it.
What are you going to put, like a fucking Starbucks right there?
Yeah, they got to put something there to inspire us.
I mean, they can't just take down statues.
You know, something's got to be there in its place, right?
Right.
I like statues.
Who's the biggest celebrity that thinks that deserves a statue?
Dax Shepard.
Okay.
I don't like Dax Shepard that much, but I feel like everyone likes him.
Everyone agrees.
I think I probably don't like him because we have similarities.
Yeah.
Really?
What are your similarities?
I think we both try to be like sensitive guys.
Yeah.
And so with him-
Does he know you guys have beef?
No, no.
You should DM him.
I know.
It's quarantine.
He's on a higher platform.
Nah, dude.
I think to me, it's like.
He'll see it.
You're verified.
I see in him the bullshit in myself.
So it frustrates me.
But it seems like he's doing a good thing.
Yeah.
Okay.
But so he could get a statue.
Got you.
And then he could go to Biden and have mixed conflicted feelings about it.
Yeah.
I think I have an issue too with, with any, like, couple,
like, celebrity couple where they're...
Successful?
Yeah, where they're just, their brand is, like,
that they're happy together.
Puts you in a tough spot.
Yeah.
Because you've got to love them.
That's what I mean.
Forever.
You're like, are they doing it for the camera
or for real life, dude?
Sometimes they have to be doing it for the camera.
They have to.
Yeah.
That's just the job.
Yeah, I mean, I have tons of trust issues because of camera. They have to. Yeah. That's just the job. I have tons of
trust issues because of Nick Lachey
and Jessica Simpson. I'm reading her book right now.
That's interesting. I thought that was
forever. I thought K-Fed
was in forever too. Dude.
Oh, when they did their videos together? Dude, Kevin
Federline and Bea Spears. I thought this was like locked
in. I almost got a Kevin Federline tattoo.
She was quietly
candid about why she liked him though. I think he was
throwing some really good dong.
It has to be. She'd be like, he really just lights me on
fire sexually. I don't think she used those
words. That's more of my language, but
that's what she, yeah, you can see it.
I think that's what Cape Fence did. You can hear it in her songs.
You can just see it in Cape Fence too. You just remember like, what's
the hook? You're like, oh, this guy,
this guy's a sensual. Do you guys ever see the
Toxic music video? Oh, dude.
Have you seen it?
Dude, when I was a young lad and that came out, I swore, like somebody told me there
was like kind of a nip slip in there.
Yeah.
I lost it.
I was like, run that back again.
Dude, when I was a kid, I had a little, a little poster from the state fair of Britney
in like a pink outfit and jeans.
Wow.
Her VMA performances too would just be like electric.
She had like a snake on her.
You're like, why is that hot?
Yeah.
It's hot.
You see that random snake in public and you're like, fuck.
You see it on her and you're like, I want to fuck.
Yeah.
I guess the fact that she could have this big anaconda on her shoulder,
she's pretty strong, and then she's still dialed enough to perform well.
That's crazy.
That's not what it was, but now that's what it is.
But also that's crazy.
As an adult who respects professionalism. Learn this dance.
Also have something that could kill you on your back.
I don't know how that makes sense.
And then sometimes it backfires.
You look at Siegfried and Roy, fucking guy.
I mean, he was playing with fire for 30 years, but one of his own tigers attacked him.
And he says the tiger actually sensed that he was sick, and that's why he attacked him.
He's like, it's your time to die?
No, he's like, you need to go get your lungs checked out.
So I'm just going to slash your throat so you get there quicker.
Is this real?
That's what he says.
I mean, he passed away, but that's what he said.
Wow.
Do you remember the I'm a slave for you music video?
Yeah, dude.
I do not.
What?
Do we should watch it?
Can we?
Yeah, sure.
Is that copyright?
I don't know if we should watch it right now, but yeah, let's watch it right now.
Oh, yeah.
Does that fuck with...
Aaron, does that fuck with the...
I'm a huge Joe Rogan fan.
You can't watch music videos.
Yeah, I don't think you can. Should we just put up an image? Can we put up an image, Aaron? does that fuck with the... I'm a huge Joe Rogan fan. You can't watch music videos. Yeah, I don't think you can.
Should we just put up an image?
Can we put up an image, Aaron?
Probably do an image.
The toxic one changed my life, dude.
That was like, I remember I was like,
is this what an erection feels like?
Yeah.
Yeah.
If somebody's like, what does it feel like
to lose your virginity?
It's like watching the toxic music video
for the first time.
How was losing your virginity?
Was that a good experience?
It was cool.
The girl had already had sex. I hadn't.
Right.
So I just remember afterwards asking, like, how did I do?
Which I don't think is kosher.
Bro, first time I lost my virginity, I was like 24.
How many times have you lost your virginity?
Right.
Good call.
I'm just kidding.
You were 24?
I'm 24.
I was old.
And then the girl, I was so nervous, right?
I actually borrowed a Viagra from my mom.
And then the girl, yeah, my mom's chill.
No, no, no.
You took a Viagra for your first time yeah bro that's commitment dude i was a little light-headed
but i was yeah but i didn't need it i hadn't i was yeah dude you had 24 year old testosterone
yeah and i wasn't masturbating at the time i hadn't come in like a while it's a whole bag of
shit i'm like a sex addict i watch too much porn i really had to decompress uh from all that so
me and her do it and then i i'm sorry if this is braggy but she said she
had an orgasm but i was so insecure from listening to love line where girls would always call him
like my boyfriend can't give me an orgasm and i was like no you didn't and they didn't believe it
yeah and she was like no i did i was like you don't have to lie to me and then which made it
so awkward and not fun for her she was like babe like you're really being weird and i was like i'm
sorry and then i just had to take a lap am i being weird you look at the window who are you being weird right yeah yeah and you're in a room together you don't know who really being weird. And I was like, I'm sorry. And then I just had to take a lap. Am I being weird? You look out the window. Who are you being weird?
Right, yeah.
And you're in a room together.
You don't know who's being weird.
There's no one else to weigh in.
That's really funny.
I almost called my mom back and was like, yo, am I being weird or is she being weird?
Do you think she had an orgasm?
That's valid, though.
My mom was like, she for sure had an orgasm.
I don't know what to say.
I was just like, how did I do?
And then she was like, what?
I was like, oh, I was a virgin.
Did you cum?
Yeah. All right. Yeah, I thought a virgin. Did you cum? Yeah.
All right.
Yeah, I thought I did, but I was just making sure it wasn't an earthquake or something.
Then you walk over to your calendar, like Jerry Seinfeld marking off days where he did stand-up,
you put an X on it.
Yeah, yeah.
Mission accomplished.
It is awkward, because then afterwards I was like, oh.
I'm going to just go.
Right.
What about you?
What age were you at?
17.
Legend, yeah.
Yeah.
She's a Chinese princess.
Nice.
That's not exaggeration.
That's, like, genuinely her heritage.
Yeah.
What's she up to now?
Just being a princess somewhere?
I don't know.
You ever check back in?
I think she lives in the Bay.
She's the one responsible for booting the NBA out of there for a while.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, pay her homage, you know?
Yeah.
I wanted to have a podcast
for like our podcast
on Patreon.
Like when we hit
a certain number,
it's like,
we should interview
the girls we lost
our virginities to.
But it's like,
these women are so like,
they just,
they like have families
at this point.
Like the girl I lost
my virginity to
has like a husband
and like a five-year-old.
Really?
She needs the excitement.
Yeah.
What am I going to be like,
hey,
you want to fucking do
an episode of Stiff Socks,
which also comes out on Wednesday? You want to do an episode of Stiff Socks, which also comes out on Wednesday?
You want to do an episode of Stiff Socks
where we're talking about you getting fucked
by this two-minute dick?
She's like...
She'll be into it.
You think?
Yeah, because I think she probably wants
a little bit of that excitement.
But it's like having talks has gone on years.
Well, you've got to throw it at her nice, but yeah.
How do you set that up?
Hey, hope you're doing well in these tough times.
Family looks beautiful.
COVID.
Family looks beautiful. Would you like to do a quick recap of our little sexual recap is good
there you go i like that yeah that is a way better way to put it i just remember using like a
planned parenthood condom which uh those don't do well oh they're not solid it was just like it was
a glow in the dark i was like this is a weird way to lose it because two cons i was more busy looking
at the condom than her and i I was like, this is not good.
Yeah.
Have you ever had to rock a Magnum?
Once.
It wasn't a proud moment to me.
It was like.
You're swimming in it a bit, but it still works.
Yeah.
It's like, you know, you see a shirt you really like, but it's a little big and you're like,
it'll shrink in the dryer and it doesn't.
And then you're stuck with it, dude.
There's also a moment when you're at a friend's house and you see his condom drawer and their
Magnums and you don't know that he's got a big dick until this moment. Dude. Oh, you got to. Oh, you fucking with it, dude. There's also a moment when you're at a friend's house and you see his condom drawer and they're magnums. And you don't know that he's got a big dick until this moment.
You're like, oh, you got a.
You fucking lay hog, dude.
Oh, you got a pipe, dude?
That happened in college.
I remember I asked the neighbor in the frat, the door down.
I was like, yo, I'm going to go check out how to borrow a condom.
He's like, yeah, for sure.
And he hands me a magnum.
At that point, I wanted to just be like, I'm good, man.
I'm going to just use a Ziploc bag.
Or is this a bit?
Are you doing a bit?
Exactly. Because I wanted to be like, all right, i'm gonna just use a ziploc bag or is this a bit are you doing a bit exactly yeah because i wanted to be like all right let me see it are you for real
packing that like let me know what's really going on down there that's the thing it's like once i
see the magnum i gotta see what goes inside of it i'm like bro you got a big dick and you've been
holding out on me you haven't let me seen this is it like girthy or is it lengthy yeah like we
talk about my friends who have big dicks constantly because they're just so when you look at them
you're just like whoa it also has to fit the vibe like if you've got magnums but you're
like you can't put up two plates on bench bro what are we talking yeah god doesn't give anyone
everything do you wish you could be a magnum guy sometimes uh i i'll probably just to say it i mean
the thing is is like i've read something online's like, because we had the same talk on our podcast, where it's like, they're not
actually longer.
It's just like the-
The girth.
The girth.
The girth.
Yeah.
The girth.
Good word.
Let me ask you guys this.
So when you throw away condoms, do you roll it all the way to the bottom?
No.
Before you throw it away?
No, I just throw them away.
You know what?
I leave them out for a while, too.
Let them dehydrate like some sun-dried tomatoes?
I invite people over.
I'm like, oh, sorry.
I'm like shrapnel from all the bottom.
Yeah, it is pretty awesome having a wrapper that's been torn by your bed.
And you're like, whoops, forgot to clean.
It's a family thing.
Look what the wind knocked in.
Yeah.
Sorry, I just had sex earlier.
That's from last night.
It is a funny moment when you just see an empty condom.
I don't know why.
Everybody knows that people have sex, but when you see the condom next to your friend's
dresser, you're like, oh, this guy fucks.
There's something about it where you're like, oh, nice.
Your premise for your video the other day about guys after they have sex.
Oh, like going into the office?
Dude, it's so true because I have friends, they'd walk in and they'd just feel like the
weight of the world on their shoulders.
And then the day after they had sex, they'd're like, hey, what's up, man?
They're just so pumped.
They're just walking.
It's the same feeling you have if you ever work out before work.
You're on cloud nine and then 2 p.m. hits and you're fucking out.
But you walk in, you're fucking just finger pissing on everybody.
What's up?
It's just a different feeling of I'm crushing the day.
Gary Vee is like, get up at 6 a.m.
Fucking write your to-do list.
I'm like, nah, get up at 6 a.m. Fucking write your to-do list. I'm like, nah, get up at 6 a.m.
Fuck some ass, dude.
Get into it.
Dude, I think the best reality TV show is literally just Facebook.
I just go on there and just see what people from my hometown are up to,
and I love it.
They're either starting beef or telling people why they need to sign up for something.
I love it.
It's great.
Yeah, fighting on there is pretty interesting.
When we're, like, just like when Ernie Stone used to like take it to some people from the
open mic scene.
Oh, dude, there's nothing more than LA comedy scene, that Facebook page.
When people pop off on there, it's like, I'll read all of them.
I love it.
It's so, yeah.
Dude, but speaking of like nothing really in particular, I want to talk to you.
I feel like competitive with you sometimes.
With me?
Yeah.
Even though you're so like monstrously successful.
It's like, I just, I know sometimes I'm like, and I'm always impressed by like your work
ethic and the stuff you put out.
But I do like sometimes I'm like, man, I want to beat this guy.
I can see that.
Yeah.
I, I, I, but I also feel like when you guys popped, I was like, your guys' growth rate
was going crazy.
So I was also like, what the fuck are they doing that I'm not doing?
You know, it's like, so it's all like, you're always going to look around you.
You know, you always look kind of like, well, yeah.
Well, cause I think we both kind of started at the same ground zero, right?
We were both.
And you gave us some help and like some tips and stuff on stuff too.
Like we just not like super formally, but just like Tao just shit and shit.
Yeah.
It is just weird seeing a bunch of people, like we all started in the open mic scene.
Right.
And then you see somebody started to take off and you'd be like why the fuck you know
Cuz then you go back to like one funnier
I saw a bomb last weekend at fucking you know, whatever this place is and then you start like going like logistics or whatever, but
It is weird when you see somebody pop off because you're like really this is the dude that
The environment picked to like do that
So I don't know i kind of
the best i've ever felt about my career is when i just started focusing on like my own shit really
because then it was like you know i'm not worried about like outside voices or anything so i kind
of like that but um i do i do see i'm sure there's comics out there that are like fuck this kid he's
not funny whatever it's just like i don't know i guess i'm just competitive i think there's two
ways to look at it it's like you can either think of it as like competitive or you can but it's also like eye-opening be like oh it can happen
This is this is how it happens like right this could be possible. Yeah, yeah
And that if they can do it I can do it exactly
Yeah
That's kind of like how I would like talk to like the homies and be like dude like I just kept a schedule of posting
I tried different shit
And then this is how it happens and as you guys know like you posted videos that you're like this is gonna bang and then It flops and then you've posted some shit. We're like yeah, it's a normal video and then the internet's like this is how it happens. And as you guys know, like you've posted videos that you're like, this is gonna bang
and then it flops.
And then you've posted some shit
where you're like,
yeah, it's a normal video
and then the internet's like,
this is God's work.
So that's all I've been doing.
Like I don't know what,
like how,
like it's just consistency
and like trial and error.
Yeah, it's kind of,
you just push each other up.
Yeah, exactly.
And it's just like,
it all balances out.
And like the hardest thing
is like a video like blows up
and then you're like,
fuck, what do I put next?
And then that video bombs and you're like, it's just like going back and forth on it
so like I don't like I have like my best practices or what I can like try to do and all that shit but like
My job before I like quit and just did comedy full-time was doing social media for a company
So like I just like studied the fuck. Yeah, did that help you a lot?
I think so
I think it made me understand why videos would do well on twitter and not facebook and why videos on facebook would do well but not on you know just like kind of like
understand the internet really well so like i was just posting every day for this company
the same video but on different formats so i'd see why shit would do well so you're literally
doing controlled experiment on like what the sensibility is yeah 100 so it was kind of like
taking notes you were like okay like no cheerfulness works on instagram like it's more so just like you just take a mental note like you're like i've posted enough on a
facebook and be like okay this video works because it gets right into it versus like youtube's more
patient but instagram you're scrolling so quick like start the video like now whatever the video
is about started now no intro no fucking cool shot of like a time lapse of the sun coming up like
this isn't you know it's not like an episode of survivor or something back from the commercial break is people like want it now
instagram what's that oh you're saying on instagram instagram especially tiktok all that
shit but like just kind of like people just like just look at how fast people scroll it's just like
you should like you know it's crazy it's fucked even like crazy viral shit like you'll see on
your feed like one or two times before you're actually like all right now let me watch it
four people have shared it then i'll watch it but like just look at how fast like
random people scroll and like you're like oh i got i have to compete with somebody with no headphones
on who scrolls this quick do you ever see people like doing your style a hundred percent a lot of
people have it's fucking annoying comics too yeah like people that are like no have you had any
conversations no because it's just like it's almost as like biggest
Flat where the fuck does that go?
invitation invitation biggest former flattery and it's like it's annoying because like these are dudes who I know and like I've seen their style go
From very much like their own to like 100% mine
It's like all the white like Instagram comedians like are like tailoring though
like quick one-liners with the zoom ins and I'm not saying like I invented that like
It kind of like you you can see where it comes from it's just like annoying because you're like fuck dude
but like again you know i didn't create this style like i was influenced by other people in the future
too or in the past too so it's like it's just annoying though because it's like very invisible
change and you're like but the only reason i see it is like because people tag me and be like yo
this is literally trevor wallace 2.0 or like Walmart Trevor.
And I'm just like, bye.
But then again, you don't want to be known to be a knockoff of somebody.
Like if somebody started doing like what you guys did, people would be like, this is Chad
Goes Deep.
Have you guys had people do that?
There's a guy like a month or two ago who like went to a city council.
Dude, I saw that.
Of a chicken wing guy.
Of a chicken wing guy.
And you know, I don't know if he's seen our stuff or not.
I mean, he had to have.
Anybody that does, like, gets footage from a council,
like, the fact that you guys figured out how to do that is legendary.
But other people had done it before, to be fair.
But thank you.
But you guys went in character and you did that.
Like, it's a very, like, you guys kind of like.
I don't understand. But you guys just, you went in there and you did that. Like, it's a very, like, you guys kind of like. I don't understand.
But you guys just, you went in there and you just, like,
just, like, didn't take no for an answer.
And you're like, you're going to hear what I have to say
because this is my time.
So, like, it's kind of like they.
Yeah.
They had to have.
Those videos did crazy numbers.
Yeah.
With that one, it was sort of like, I was like,
people were like, people were half like,
yo, this is, he's taking your style. like, people were like, people were half like,
yo, this is, he's taking your style.
And other people were like, you need to work with this guy.
That's also true.
People were taking my shit, but you should work with this guy.
It's like, I don't want to work with somebody who's taking my style.
Oh, the people that I'll get comped to too.
I'm like, you think I'm like that person?
Oh yeah.
I don't do what that person does.
Yeah.
But that's just in my head because it's like, it's all the same shit.
Yeah.
And even that chicken wing guy, I was kind of judgy of him.
I was like, oh, no, I don't think that's how it works.
I mean, yeah, mine are way better.
Yeah.
I'm still like an undercover competitive.
There's just this rage inside of me. But then the part of me is I was just trying to be like kind of spiritual about it.
Yeah.
Not spiritual, but just more just like you know there's like this is what
you know it's like uh it's flattering and uh and also all the best to him yeah because like it
could because you kind of just have to like which is so hard to think but then you just have to
think like there's room for everybody yeah which is like exactly that's what you have it's that's
a hard concept to grasp it is because like there's been times where this one dude literally took my entrepreneur character
verbatim on TikTok
and I wrote out the words
nice, dot, dot, dot.
And then I was like, why am I going to copy this?
Why am I going to click sign?
What is this going to do for me?
Give me a little bit of dopamine?
Yeah, I'm fucking superior.
But I just didn't say anything.
Also, you don't want to be that guy online
who's really petty.
They're taking my style. The Hollywood's coming after me. I don't and it's like also you don't want to be like a guy online who's like really petty like they're taking my style yeah they're the hollywood's coming after me good to foster that so yeah exactly you just don't want people to be like oh what trevor
posts on this story and then you're just yelling at some random kid who's like yeah i'm a fan dude
what do you want me to do i'm sorry yeah do you respond to people when they talk shit
not anymore i think in the early on days i would i get a kick out of it and a lot of times they'll
they'll come around like you know 100 i used to to DM people back and I'd be like hey man
I saw you commented that I should go eat shit and dies or reason you know like that video
Because then they're like oh, I don't think you're responding my friend message that yeah, you're actually pretty funny
I was drunk and I love you and I bought a t-shirt, you know
Yeah, yeah
So it is because like I think people talk shit in the comments like they're in there just yelling in a forest and they don't expect anybody to hear it yeah and you're
just like i'm right here yeah yeah so dude i'm sorry we kind of went over a little bit but do
you have time to just answer a couple listeners yeah let's let's do it man okay cool um we'll
get into boom clap i hope this message finds you well and you're stoked at an all-time high i'm so
thankful for your pod as a way to soak up good vibes a lot of laughs and the pov of some solid
bros a few months ago i left an eight-year relationship, a high-paying
but unfulfilling job, and moved 1,000 miles across the country so I'd be closer to family
and revamp my life. I live with my parents in a small town and not looking to break quarantine
anytime soon, but I would like to ease into meeting new people and practice conversation
skills. Is there a non-creepy way of putting myself out there? I lack self-confidence and
I'm shy about certain aspects of my life,
which would be considered a turnoff.
For example, being a vegan and straight edge.
Is it rude to be on dating apps if you're looking for something serious?
Is it worth it if I don't know where I'll be geographically in a year?
Much appreciation for letting me pick your brains.
And it's a lady.
It's a lady.
I, uh...
No, I think you're good. I think you might be being be being like too hard on yourself before you even start
like i think i think everybody's a little awkward after this like let's say there's a vaccine or
whatever the fuck heart immunity where everybody just has it i think everybody afterwards is gonna
be like oh like in coven huh you know right if in like five years are weird it's like
and i think her being vegan and straight edge that that's actually a fast track into making friends.
Because then there's like groups for that.
And you kind of already have like a shared language and kind of rapport.
So, yeah, I think the more defining things like that you can have, the better.
I mean, maybe there won't be as many people who feel that way in your small town.
But the people who do are going to be really good friends.
Yeah, that's true.
Maybe hop on chat real quick.
Get the social skills up.
Yeah.
And then I'm thinking if you're a lady and you want to
you go on hinge you'll meet some
guys and they'll actually I think they'll be
they'll be stoked to show you around my girlfriend
said when she moved to Orange County
she just said on there like hey I just want people to show
me around and she said a bunch of people just showed her
around and it was really nice every day it's like so
you just want to see like the zoo like that's
it you don't want to see like like anything
else and she's like no I'm good okay well that's what I was like i was like in my head i'm like a lot of disappointed
dudes but she was like no they were like just stoked to show me around i was like if you got
good energy people will kind of match it yeah and she probably could tell before she met up with them
that are not just trying to like you know right freaks yeah he wasn't like sitting on the hood
of his like expensive car with like one hand like this and like a perfectly Manicured five o'clock shadow. Yeah, like all those like gold digger videos was my favorite
They're like you want to go on a date and girls ignore
He's like oh really cuz this is my McLaren and like well, I must go to get coffee with you now
Well then in the McLaren it's that one center seat and then the two back seats are behind it
Yeah, so she doesn't sit in the middle. She'd have to sit three feet to the right
Yeah, it's a joint it back there. It have to sit in the middle? She'd have to sit three feet to the right behind him. It's a jointed back there?
It's a seat in the middle?
I think so.
I don't even know that.
On the famous one, McLaren S1 from like 20 years ago.
They probably have newer models that don't do that.
It's pretty tight, dude.
It's pretty legit.
It'd be annoying to give your car to drive-thru workers.
You're like, oh, fuck, I gotta stretch.
Will you ever have a car that the doors go up like this?
Like the wing style?
I don't think so.
Really?
Because you can only do cool shit.
You only look dope getting out of that at valet. But if you're pulling up to TJ Maxx, it style? I don't think so. Really? Because you can only do cool shit. You only look dope
getting out of that at valet.
But if you're pulling up to TJ Maxx,
it's like,
it's so much.
Well,
I'll tell you what I'm going to get.
I'm going to get
an orange Toyota Supra.
Okay.
The exact one
from Fast and the Furious 1.
That's pretty tight.
That is what I'm going to get.
That's pretty sick though.
And I'm going to drive that
on the PCH.
I also think this girl,
you had that high paying job,
maybe get like a fun car that
sticks out when you go places.
That's true.
Get like a Mercedes G500, lease it, you know, so you don't got to pay that full ticket price.
Do you like those?
Nah.
They're everywhere in this fucking city.
But they stick out.
They do.
And then you just get a funky color on it.
If you get one of those in Iowa, you'll stick out.
Out here, you blend right in.
But I think you're going to make friends.
It is an awkward time right now.
It's hard for people to meet other people,
but you just got to put yourself out there,
whether it's DMing, dating apps, whatever it is.
You might look goofy once in a while,
but I'd have faith in yourself that you're pretty cool
and people will recognize that.
Yeah, it's a live your life.
Like JT said, you're kind of being hard on yourself.
I wouldn't worry too much about the rules around dating apps.
Just go meet people, have fun, be vegan, straight edge.
I love it.
Yeah, you got two lanes.
Like you wanna hang out just straight edge
or just vegan or both, you know?
Dude, my straight edge friends in high school
had like 40 year old friends.
Because I think if you're like 40 year old straight edge,
you don't really do things that other adults do.
So you kinda have to hang out with teenagers.
Yeah. Really? I don't know i just go like
my friend who was straight edge gonna do it was in a fight and i like helped organize the fight
because i thought it'd be a lot of fun do you have to organize the fight the poor kid in my
summer school class was like dude i don't think i want to fight him i was like you kind of have to
man you use the title card championship yeah i'm like you got he showed up super drunk just got his
ass kicked yeah poor guy um but yeah i set up the fight and then when i got there i was like who are
all these 40 yearyear-olds?
They're like, oh, those are Dave's straight edge buddies.
Yeah.
And they just kind of made sure it didn't get too out of control.
Yeah.
I do think, though, that straight edge nowadays is like a little bit more.
If you're in L.A. especially, it's like more normal than people with booze a lot.
Right.
You're sober.
You're just sober.
Yeah.
You're not even straight edge.
Well, I think the difference between sober and straight edge is it's a little more like
I have XX tattooed on my Yeah. Your name is Shady. Well, I think the difference between sober and straight-edged shit is it's a little more like I have XX, you know,
like tattooed on the music.
It's a little more.
But, I mean,
they're proud of it
for a good reason, you know.
A little Fugazi soundtrack.
Yeah, I mean,
sober is more just like,
oh, yeah, I don't really drink
because I just want to focus
on my career.
But straight-edged is like,
I fucking live, eat,
breathe oxygen.
You know what gets me off?
Oxygen.
Life.
I come to Sequoia Trees.
That's cool. I wish I could. Of all the trees. Yeah. It's a greatoia Trees. That's cool.
I wish I could.
Of all the trees.
Yeah.
It's a great tree to come to.
It's kind of the biggest.
It's the most magnum of all the trees.
I would say so myself, yeah.
All right.
What's up, Stoke Lords of Dogtown?
Your intellectual guest and the cherry on the milkshake of this pod, Aaron.
I write to you guys with great concern about my sister.
She's 21 and I am 18.
She's been drinking a lot of hard liquor and doing shrooms lately. would totally ask her for some shrooms but there's a problem my sister has
an extremely addictive personality like dudes i can't express enough how my sister is the last
person in the world who should be on shrooms we work at the same job and she's coming on shrooms
or we'll sneak to the back to take a vodka shot that's pretty dicey um i don't mean to throw
stones in a glass house though i don't have the biggest problem with her doing hard liquor.
She is a 21-year-old woman who is trying to get a rage on,
and I'm sure I'll be raging a lot at that age, too.
But her doing shrooms is not something I want to stand by and watch her do.
She's also picked up vaping.
I don't know how constantly she does these new habits,
but from what I've asked my coworkers and just knowing her personality,
I understand it is pretty often.
She lives in her own apartment while I still live at home.
My sister and I have a tight squad with dudes my age and their sisters who are my sister's
age.
That's nice.
And I was talking to one of the girls who said it is also making her uncomfortable.
So I know I am not overthinking this.
This mutual friend of ours seems as bummed about it as I am.
Also, she completely bypassed weed and went straight to shrooms.
That's weird.
First, which I don't think is something something someone like
her should do i hope this doesn't make me seem like i'm speaking negatively about my sister i
could write a million emails about what i love about her to you guys too these these new habits
are making me super concerned though to put it simply i just feel like she's going down a bad
path and doesn't know it and so now i am asking your wisdom should i talk to her about how i feel
do i wait a few more months and see if it is a phase if i were to talk to her how can i do my
best to plead or to plead with her to slow down you guys are expert
ragers and i would love to hear your input on the situation i think i would say something lovingly
uh without judgment i think i would just let her i would just put it in her
in her you know orbit that you're you're a little bit concerned um because you don't want to come
in and judge you because then they're going to be like you know they're gonna be like oh fuck you
and a lot of times with this with these situations you kind of got just they have to they have to
want to change themselves but i think it really matters when someone that you love and care about says something to you and it sort of like you know hits you deep in your chest you know
um like when i woke up nude at my brother's college and he's like you shouldn't wake up
nude when you come visit me that hit me hard that'll do it yeah yeah i agree with chad i think um
you got to think what would you do if she approached you about trying to help you with
something in your life you'd probably uh receive it as love and think she was just looking out for
you i was doing too much molly and my friend was like yo you got to slow down and i was like okay
he's probably right i'm probably i don't think this person there's no like retaliation or you're
like no fuck you i'm not no i have that in me but no with him i was just like he wouldn't say this to me unless it was an issue yeah and then i think
you just come in and you're just like hey i'm scared and then you guys will have a good conversation
and she'll probably you'll probably see better where she's coming from and then you know you
just got to come out and be like hey it's just because i love you and i think uh that'll come
through because you clearly do love her a lot yeah you gotta end it on that note just because i love
you it's a good one yeah it can't be like attack you with it no you're just like hey i noticed you've been i mean especially her doing that at work like you gotta end it on that note, just because I love you. That's a good one. Yeah. You can't be like, attack you with it. No, you're just like, hey, I noticed you've been,
I mean, especially her doing that at work.
Like, you can't be drinking on the job and stuff like that.
That's just, because it's going to get you fired.
And it's not something she can be honest about. If you're doing
behavior that you can't be honest about,
you're probably doing maybe something you shouldn't,
or you're not working in the right place.
You'll just have the boss be like, hey, I was looking at
security camera, started taking a shot.
Like, you gotta just slowly roll a little. But then the boss might just be like, hey, I was looking at security camera. So I'm taking a shot. Like, you got to just slowly roll a little.
But then the boss might just be like, wait, who?
What?
Fired.
So maybe not the best idea.
And I don't, I wouldn't narc on her.
Yeah.
But I would, I would talk to her.
And I think especially if her friends are concerned, I wouldn't bring that up.
But that is good that, you know, it's, it's not just, it's been other people are kind
of maybe seeing what you're seeing and think it's cause for concern, but she'll be all
right.
You just got to talk to her and just tell her cause for concern. But she'll be all right.
You just got to talk to her and just tell her you love her.
Ex-girlfriend gets engaged.
What up, Stokes Senseis?
Daniel Sun here.
In a bit of an emotional dilemma, I was hoping you could help.
In August 2019, my girlfriend and I of three and a half years broke up in a mutual yet very emotional split.
I was very rattled for a time but slowly refilled my Stoke tank.
A few months later, though, it's clear she's got a new boyfriend.
Definitely hurt me a bit, but I tried to move on and did, having a short-term relation about six months later.
Fast forward to the end of September 2020, and I found out through social media she got engaged to this dude just over a year after we broke up.
Obviously, I have no right to be angry.
She's her own person, and she can do what she wants, but definitely feels somewhat hurt and weirded out by this revelation.
I think you're also angry, too.
He's definitely hurt. Yes, people who are hurt definitely love to say i'm
not hurt yeah which is a normal feeling to have but like i think you gotta just like block her
on social media or like mute her you don't you don't need the energy in your life you don't want
to be the guy looking through the window being like what's she up to you know just don't look
at her shit then you start posting happy shit because she's looking too and then he said i don't regret the breakup at all but i'd be lying if i said it doesn't
bother me a little i've only told two of my best bros about it but no one else is this a chill move
by her am i being a schmullen should just forget about it move on should i stop holding it and
tell people it's on my mind also possibly she got pregnant but got pregnant but to be honest
seems unlikely wow no dude i mean i don't think like you're just
a sweet guy you just love this girl a lot but i don't think she's being unchill she just met
someone else who she jived with and you guys probably weren't meant to be together but i agree
with trevor i think you just gotta put the blinders on not pay attention to her and take all that good
love for you you feel for and put it into another person who's gonna appreciate it yeah yeah and
then maybe you know what and like Trevor said, she's watching you.
The race is long and slow and in the end only with yourself, but it's also with other people.
Your marriage is going to last three times as long.
She's looking.
She probably thinks about him while she's with the new guy.
Oh, yeah.
Little things like, oh, he used to do this.
When she's got an O, she's like, thinks back to the last dude.
Yeah.
I think you just got to shift your perspective on it.
Like,
this is the fuel,
fuel you need
to fucking dominate,
you know?
Yeah.
To,
because essentially telling people,
it's not gonna do any justice.
Nobody's gonna give you like,
empty points.
You kind of just gotta be like,
all right,
well,
you gotta look at it like,
she'll regret it
and then you just keep living your life.
Yeah,
it's like you take in that pain.
You're like, you say, thank you.
Now I'm going to go become an astronaut.
Dude, use that fuel.
That's the fuel you need to like just achieve great things.
Or ride into Gary Vee and be like, what the fuck should I do, Gary?
Yeah.
He'd tell you to go be productive and like just like create.
You're heartbroken at age 20, you stupid fuck.
He'd tell you to go create an epic life,
which is what you gotta do.
Yeah,
no,
I,
yeah,
I think,
uh,
yeah,
life is long and you'll find somebody else.
Yeah,
I'd just be stoked for her.
I'd just be like,
look,
I'm so happy that you met someone.
You deserve it.
Oh God,
dude.
Yeah.
But that type of energy will drive a girl,
she'll be like,
what does that mean?
He said he was happy,
but is he happy?
But if you're just like,
like if you're like,
high road to a thousand.
Yeah.
Just so happy for you.

It's so many.
So many for locos.

loco every day for the year and then some.
Yeah. Did you drink locos
when they had caffeine? Yeah. It was so much better.
Dude, that was like
I feel like my pitbull just got neutered.

My beef of the week is with people who love fall.
You know, people who love seasons.
Quote unquote. Yeah, okay. you know people who love seasons quote unquote yeah okay
uh enjoy those seasons um yeah i don't know dude i just like i love summer so much and it
and i it this may be a little bit harsh but it really just irks my chain when people you know
like to rub it in your face that it's fall they're like it's fall's fall. Look, there's pumpkins. Let's go to a pumpkin patch.
There's leaves falling.
And I'm like, I don't need that, okay?
I don't need you to remind me constantly
that summer is over.
I don't know.
It's kind of to each their own, I guess.
But just don't remind me that it's fall.
No, it twists my bald hair, too.
Yeah.
I'm so pumped it's raining. Yeah. Because it's not cool. No, it twists my bald hair too. Yeah. I'm so pumped it's raining.
Yeah.
Because it's not cool.
Yeah.
That's why you're pumped.
Yeah.
And I always appreciate optimism.
Yeah.
But I'm like, where's this enthusiasm when it's sunny?
Dude.
And then the line of death is, or the question of death is,
or no, the line of death is like, hey, you'll probably need a jacket.
And I'm like, then I'll probably just stay home a jacket for what to go outside when it's cold yeah it's called a
hibernation aaron what's your b for the week uh my b for the week is with uh corona deniers. Corona? Corona deniers, yeah.
Oh.
The virus deniers. Is that still a thing?
Our fucking president is like, we're turning the corner.
We're on the home stretch.
It's all over.
And then I get updates on my phone that say, highest peak ever.
Yeah, we almost hit 100K.
Oh, when? Where? We hit 94,000 like hit 100K. Oh, when?
Where?
We hit 94,000 like two days ago.
Oh, really?
I just don't even pay attention to that news anymore.
I wouldn't.
California's actually not doing so bad.
Really?
If you go to the New York Times,
Great America,
we're still a nice light yellow
rather than a dangerous Montana orange.
Oh, yeah, Montana's taking a hit, huh?
Big time.
How's your dad doing?
He's in here right now
so that's good oh nice but aaron i'm sorry continue brother yeah it's just um i know we're
tired of it i know we are i'm tired of it but you just gotta you can't be reckless uh because it's
still out there it doesn't give a shit if you're tired um we just have to wait for that goddamn
vaccine which is not coming before the election.
What?
Trump said it would be here in a couple of weeks.
Dude, the election is next Tuesday.
Isn't that crazy?
The vaccine is his Canadian girlfriend.
She exists, I swear.
You should have met my Canadian girlfriend, Tess. She was beautiful.
She would never get COVIDed it's just insane and and we get these we get some comments on on our youtube page that just drive me up the wall and if anyone here frequently all things
comedy youtube page just know that if you are a mask denier or whatever you're getting blocked
forever so yeah it's just frustrating seeing that stuff that's still out there.
Um,
uh,
a part of my,
one of my,
one of my,
my legend will be,
uh,
what's in the Borat movie.
But,
um,
yeah,
it's,
uh,
we watched that together.
We had a,
we had a nice weekend.
China hung out,
did mushrooms,
watched the Borat movie.
Yeah. It was great um
my beef of the week is with people who describe themselves as empaths
a empath is someone who um uniquely feels other people's emotions they're very empathetic
um everyone who uses it on reality shows clearly doesn't feel what other people are feeling
because if they did,
they know we all think they're huge renops for saying that.
Cause here's the thing,
us real empaths,
we would never describe ourselves as empaths.
We would know that that would just come across as hugely douchey.
And that since you're on a dating show,
you're going to do a lot of things that aren't going to look empathetic.
And,
and you're going to kind of make yourself look like a dick for saying it.
And, you know, I meet people in real life who are like, I'm an empath.
I'm an empath.
I'm an empath.
You mean you sort of know what other people are feeling?
It's like people who describe their sense of humor as sarcastic.
Yeah.
I have a very dark sense of humor.
Oh, do you, guy who's never made anyone laugh?
Do you?
sense of humor oh do you guy who's never made anyone laugh do you so if you say you have a dark sense of humor or you say you're an empath I got news for you
you should introduce yourself another way that would make people like you just
say you suck I suck that's kind of likeable well so I kind of borrowed this
whole empath jag from my girlfriend she hates empaths she didn't like it when
people describe themselves as empath yeah but um yeah this is i felt what she was saying so i needed to talk about it
is this directed a specific reality star i don't even know someone just said it on something
and i was like oh dude just shut the fuck up you know when someone says something you're like oh
dude just shut up it was like that chad who's your babe of the week my babe of the week
is
freaking
what is my babe of the week
John Travolta and
Broken Arrow nice dude
dude such a good villain.
I mean, just all the way down the way he smokes his cig.
Just John Travolta in Broken Arrow is a babe.
He doesn't give a fuck if it's a nuke.
He's going to sell that shit.
I've only watched like half of it.
Hey, but you got it right.
Okay, cool. That's what he's going to it. Hey, but you got it right. Okay, cool.
That's what he's going to do.
That's all I got.
Or the Southwest is going to be uninhabitable for about the next 10,000 years.
He's got a lot of swagger in that movie.
And the way John Woo shoots it.
What a terrible thing to say.
Grab the nukes.
Let's go.
Badass.
Aaron, who's your babe?
He's also bossing around Howie Long which is pretty
remarkable Howie Long not a bad actor
yeah
my babe of the week is Brett Phillips
of the Tampa Bay Rays
you guys saw
the walk off hit
well JT maybe anybody
I saw it
dude I saw it I've been watching this World Series I saw it all
right yeah yeah it was uh I mean he was put in there to pinch run an inning or two before
was never supposed to get a plate appearance then he's in a world series game they're down by one he's facing the dodgers
closer he's down to two he's i think he's oh two or one one and two something like that
and kenley just does not throw a good cutter and maybe that's because he can't anymore um
and he hits it in the center field and then the the all hell breaks loose that is that play um which i can't even
insult chris taylor for because i've done it a million times where you just whoop there the
ball's not in your glove like it should have been um and the guy starts doing airplanes
in the outfield yeah yeah he just seems like the sweetest guy he's got this crazy high laugh
everyone on his team loves him they love having around they put him on the roster like despite the fact that he was hitting like 090 or something like that
uh he was so jacked from hitting that from getting that hit that he needed an iv and oxygen like he
almost did he really yeah he almost passed out while celebrating that's awesome and it's just
like who can't relate to someone like living out a dream and it almost physically taking them down?
That's pretty awesome.
Yeah, he did.
He was so fired up.
The amount of pressure.
There's just those key moments for pitchers and hitters.
It's just all on you.
Then you've got to face the dugout.
Luckily, he came out strong,
even though I'm kind of rooting for the Dodgers.
Sorry, Aaron.
No, I mean, it doesn't matter who you're rooting for.
It's just like that was incredible, you know?
Yeah.
We need it.
My Babe of the Week is Aaron Sorkin.
You just got to give it up to the guy.
I mean, he's just got a long list of bangers to his credit.
And now he's directing, and I like the two movies he directed.
I watched The Trial at Chicago 7,
which there's been like six different versions of.
And I think his is the best.
I guess he takes a lot of creative liberties with history,
but to great effect.
I mean, I was crying a couple times.
And the performances, you got Mark Rylance.
He just gets great actors.
You got Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
You got Sacha Baron Cohen. You got Eddie Redmaymayne who I've never been a huge fan of but like just totally inhabits this
character like voice and movement wise and then um and I'm missing some other big actors but it's
just from top to bottom really well acted and then he just writes great scenes like just stuff that
is moving and and articulate and and relevant to what's
happening today and he's been doing it for 30 years you know he had coke problems he's battled
and he just keeps doing good work and then you know people they get on him because he can be a
little grandiose and they think they see his ego and what he's writing i tell you what whatever it
takes for him to do it he's earned it social network a few good men the american president
now trial of chicago i didn't even know it was his movie at the end i just saw oh written direct for him to do it. He's earned it. Social network, A Few Good Men, The American President,
now Trial of the Chicago City. I didn't even know
it was his movie.
At the end,
I just saw,
oh,
written and directed
by Aaron Sorkin.
I was like,
no wonder this shit
fucking ripped.
He directed it too?
Yeah.
Then he did Molly's Game.
I love that movie.
Some people don't like it
because they think it's like
there's too much man
splitting to the
Jessica Chastain character.
I'm like,
I don't know, man.
I thought it ripped.
I thought she was great.
I thought her dad, Kevin Costner, was great. I love the whole thing. The guy, I don't know man I thought it ripped I thought she was great I thought her dad Kevin Costner was great I love the whole thing the guy I don't know he's he's he's
up there for me I like watching his um I've been watching interviews with him recently just randomly
and yeah it's cool hearing about his process but he like acts everything out like when he's writing
and like one time he was he was like he's writing some scene
i forget for what movie it was but he's so fired up that he fucking like ran through a wall right
and broke his nose dude that makes sense his scenes get you so fired up i could see writing
that and then that's maybe what people are talking about like you can feel his ego and i'm like yeah
it's great he's writing stuff so good it gets him pumped up like he hasn't seen it before that's
just an example of people looking for something to be upset with him for. Yeah, can we just treasure
this man? Yeah. That's just like people
that are like, what can I do to like take him
down a notch? Right. And you're like,
nice.
Not very, those people are not empaths.
Aaron Sorkin is
a legit empath. I got a
few things to say. You got some beef?
Yeah, he's kind of. Aaron, you know what? I'm not
totally surprised you got beef with Sorkin. I'm with it though. Yeah. He's kind of... Aaron, you know what? I'm not totally surprised you got beef with Sark.
I'm with it, though.
Yeah.
He's kind of anti-union.
He's anti-WGA,
and he's in it.
Oh, in his personal life?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, I'm sure he's got
a bunch of stuff he's done
that's no bueno
and stances that are incorrect.
But what about the work?
I mean,
the West Wing characters
say a lot of things
but don't do anything.
Politicians, particularly, in that show.
And you see some parallels with him?
I see that.
Well, unfortunately, I see that in Democratic administrations.
Yeah.
So that's a bummer.
That's what Trump takes it to Biden over.
Wait, so you're saying that the characters in the show are all talk and no action?
Yeah, and that unfortunately influenced a lot of the Obama administration.
Oh, really?
The guys who, yeah, came up watching the West Wing and they're like, that's what I want
to do.
And it's like, okay, well, great.
And obviously Obama was a great speaker.
Oh, that's interesting.
But you got to get it done.
Is that too much to put on the guy, though?
He had eight years.
I mean, he wrote the West Wing, and now we're going to blame him for Obama's administration?
I mean, it's kind of his thing.
I don't know.
It's interesting.
They say in the speech, they're like, my whole political style is from aaron sorkin's writing
that's why i'm gonna get nothing done but you're gonna love me chad who's your legend of the week
my legend of the week is sasha baron cohen um watched borat with jt and uh to be honest i was
kind of like you know with some of his recent work, it's hard to critique Sasha because he's such a genius and spearheaded this whole comedic movement, I guess you could say.
Like prank character stuff.
Yeah.
How would you describe this comedic, you know, he's.
Yeah.
He's just a master of this style.
But I came into it kind of like, I was like like I don't know if I like the whole
it's a little pointed politically now
like Ali G was a little bit more fun but then you watch
the second Borat and you're like
he's a genius
it's got some great stuff in it
yeah I mean he's just
he's the master and I
understand why he's made those choices
in his work to go
a little bit more pointed
personally I think one because understand why he's made those choices in his work to go a little bit more pointed um i i personally
i think one because it's like you gotta you gotta heighten what you've done on top of borat right
and it's like it's like all right well i'm gonna go for real political figures now and try and like
you know really um you know make an impact culturally and politically, I guess.
And also he's got his values, and I respect him for it.
You know, he realizes he has a voice, and he wants to, like, use it for change and good.
So I respect him for that.
But he's just the master.
Agreed. And I've got to give it up to him. And I've always for that. But he's just the master. Agreed.
I got to give it up to him.
And I've always loved his work.
Ali G, I still watch weekly.
All the Borat stuff, so good.
I mean, it was all so good.
And yeah, he's awesome.
So Sasha, you're my legend.
Love it.
Aaron, who's your legend?
Going to have to make it two for two.
Sacha Baron Cohen was my legend as well.
Oh, right.
Did you say that earlier in the pod?
I said he was going to come up, yeah.
Oh, right.
Okay, yeah.
My bad, dude.
No, it's all good.
It came into my dome.
Yeah, no, totally.
I mean, it's out there.
It happened this weekend.
I mean, he's incredible.
The way he is, because he's not the first guy to do pranks, right?
There have been great prank shows before yeah but the way that he can a develop a character and b stay in it
when it seems like all is lost i mean he he doubles and triples down on it it's it's incredible um and
now he has this this new actress that he's introduced us to I don't know how to say her name
Dude she was amazing
Yeah it's incredible
I just don't know what else to say
and we share a birthday so that's great
Nice
Dude my legend of the week is Bob Marley
Nice
Reggae singer
Oh not the comic?
No the singer dude
Dude I would see that on serious xm comedian
bob marley what was his stylings i never listen yeah i just feel disappointed like is this three
little birds or no woman no cry it's like no this is starbucks yeah poor guy starbucks bathrooms
it's like the baseball player named will smith such a bummer um but yeah i just was listening
to bob marley music all weekend.
Is this love?
Could you be loved?
No woman, no cry.
I mean, these are the hits, but man, they're just timeless.
His whole vibe is incredible.
You know, he's just a peaceful dude.
And you know, he had a big family.
I think he made like 40 kids.
Nice.
The reason his best of is called legend.
Exactly.
Chad, what's your quote of the week?
It comes from Randall Memphis Raines from Gone 60 Seconds.
I just stole 50 cars in one night, okay?
I'm a little tired.
I'm a little wired.
And I think I deserve a little appreciation.
Actually, let me do the Sphinx.
Sorry.
If his unpleasant wounding has in some way enlightened the rest of you as to the grim
finish beneath the glossy veneer of criminal life and inspired you to change your ways,
then its injuries carry with it inherent nobility and a supreme glory.
We should all be so fortunate.
You say poor Toby.
I say poor Ross.
I thought you were from Long Beach.
Yeah.
Dude, that was good.
Two killer lines.
Yeah, you had to do them both.
Yeah.
Aaron, what's your legend?
All right, what's your quote of the week?
My quote of the week is from my boys, Jimmy World.
It's from the song Believe in What You Want.
It's on Clarity.
It's one of the greatest albums ever made.
Verse one, well, don't bother going through your emotions.
Nothing that makes sense ever works out.
Don't kid yourself.
You know they want money.
Well, nothing can be good on its own.
It's just a merit.
And then verse two, put your trust in simple acts,
make the flyers, get them up all over town. Don't kid yourself. You know, it's for money.
Uh, well, please keep in sight what makes you care. You'll have it always. It's kind of about,
um, at least to me, it's about like what you do and whether what your, what your actual goals are and your motivations are versus what you do just
for fun.
Um,
and not for money.
Nice dude.
Um,
my quote of the week is this song.
Holy shit.
By,
uh,
father,
John Misty,
the singer,
dude, this song has the best lyrics I think of any song ever.
Now, I am prone to hyperbole,
but in this moment, I believe it full-heartedly.
That rhymed a little bit.
And he just captures everything that's happening now.
He goes, ancient holy wars,
dead religion,
Holocaust,
new regimes,
old ideas.
That's now myth.
That's now real.
Original sin,
genetic fate,
revolution,
spinning plates.
It's important to stay informed.
The commentary to comment on.
Age old gender roles,
infotainment,
capital,
golden bows and mercury,
bohemian nightmare,
nightmare,
dust bowl chic.
This documentary is lost on me. Satirical news, free energyows and Mercury, Bohemian Nightmare, Dust Bowl Chic. This documentary is lost on me.
Satirical news, free energy, mobile lifestyle, loveless sex, independence, happiness.
Oh, and no one's ever knows the real you, and life is brief, so I've heard.
But what's that got to do with this atom bomb in me?
Coliseum families, the golden era of TME, eunuch sluts, consumer slaves, a rose by any other name, carbon footprint, incest streams, fuck the mother in the green, planet cancer, sweet revenge, isolation, online friends.
Oh, and love is just an institution based on human frailty.
What's your paradise got to do with Adam and Eve?
Maybe love is just an economy based on resource scarcity, but I fail to see what that's got to do with you and me.
Dude, what a beast. I missed an earlier stanza, but I fail to see what that's got to do with you and me. Dude, what a beast.
I missed an earlier stanza, but don't matter.
Just give it a listen.
Just crushed it.
Chad, what's your phrase that we forget after it?
What do you like better, boosting cars or sex?
What about boosting cars while having sex?
Well, there's an issue.
The shifter gets in the way.

Aaron, what's your phrase we'll be forgetting after it?
Hey, let's go do airplanes in the outfield, man.
Nice.
Dude, mine is this referee one time who was calling a game in like the 80s.
And Jim Kelly, the quarterback, just got pinned down by a D lineman.
And the D lineman just beat the shit out of him.
And the ref goes up and goes, penalty on 85.
He had the quarterback on the ground.
He was giving them the business.
