Starting point is 00:02:48 Mm-hmm. Oh. Yeah. You enjoy the pitch process? You're going in and... I love pitching. Because we did it in character, so it's like a presentation. Right.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Or it's like, we're just like in character and we're, it's like, or it's like a performance. It's just fun. Yeah. Yeah. It's interesting to me. You don't hear like directors or performers talk about that very often, but I'm always like it's such a big part of it, and I do think it's like a fun skill to kind of hone.
Starting point is 00:03:14 It's a skill. Yeah. I heard the guy Scott Cooper. Who's that? I don't want to. He did Crazy Heart, and he's a director. Okay. But like a couple of his movies,
Starting point is 00:03:24 I think his last couple haven't done well box office wise and i talked to someone who like had worked with them why am i wearing headphones and you're not you don't have to but it's actually kind of nice yeah you guys are so chill it's like yeah i feel really relaxed every time i talk to you guys i feel like i'm on drugs yeah we've heard that before every time and it's a good feeling but it's like you gotta like you you guys are you you're an experience oh you are an experience my my mother used to my mother had a friend from france and my sister is like a very uh i don't know my sister's like incredible person and she used to always say she would, my sister's name is Barry. She'd go, oh, Barry, she is an experience. That's how I want to be described.
Starting point is 00:04:09 That sounds sexual. Yeah, I don't know if she meant it that way. She meant she's a rich person. Right. Rich and yeah, yeah. Yeah, a full spirited. And do you guys do mushrooms and stuff like that? Last Wednesday. I microdose. I do mushrooms last Wednesday. Last Wednesday. How and do you guys do mushrooms and stuff like that last wednesday
Starting point is 00:04:25 last wednesday i'm sure you do i did three little uh pills of it so not much yeah i did two and that's funny i i told my girlfriend i was like you know i'm done and then i was watching lewis capaldi he's like all right i'm doing like one more song and for some reason i was like i'll do one more and then threw it in yeah but it was like on my way home basically when you went to a lewis capaldi he's like all right i'm doing like one more song and for some reason i was like i'll do one more and then threw it in yeah but it was like on my way home basically when you went to a lewis capaldi show and did mushrooms it was a good experience he was beautiful up there and i i love going to concerts on mushrooms it's one of my favorite things to do yeah the last one i was on shoes where i saw florence and the machine on mushrooms and she was great but i also like doing mushrooms on like a uh idle tuesday yeah
Starting point is 00:05:06 and i'll just bird scooter around and go to the park and get some sun and like people watch and do you ever have like um have you had any great epiphanies or on mushrooms i don't think i'll ever beat the first time the first time i did mushrooms i was like 25 and i was with a good group of people and i remember i just started like running on all fours i started running like a gorilla and they were doing a uh like a polo match in santa monica i came down from the hills wow and all these people were dressed in suits and i like ran through them on all fours and i was shirtless yeah and i felt so free yeah and i was like i think i get so caught up in a kind of internal processing, whether
Starting point is 00:05:47 I'm like a good person or a bad person. And in that moment, I realized like, you're not only a good person, underneath that person is just a happy monkey. And that's your core. And it felt really good to just be like, I'm just a happy monkey. Yeah, that's nice. And I just want to feel the earth and eat bananas and pick bugs off my friend's back metaphorically sure whatever you is analogous to that why would you be a good person you seem like
Starting point is 00:06:13 the best person oh why do you think why would you have any doubt in your mind you're not a good person because you're a great person i guess i've made mistakes and also i've uh i guess I wonder if anybody's a good person or if we're all governed by a kind of innate selfishness. But then even to judge that, does that even make you bad if you're innately selfish? Because you are just an organism trying to survive. But then I don't want to get into some kind of like objectivist philosophy and start being like an Ayn Rand head. So it's trying to find that balance between doing what I want but not having too many externalities that make other people's good time go bad. But now I'm rambling.
Starting point is 00:06:57 I'm on mushrooms right now, dude. No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Do you worry about being a good person or not? No. No, not at all. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Do you worry about being a good person or not? No. No, not at all. I know I'm a good person. Because I go out of my way to make everybody feel good all the time. And I guess I do that selfishly.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Because I do get so much enjoyment from other people being happy. And that's who I am. I'm a people pleaser. Have you always been that way? Yeah. I've always been that way. And, and,
Starting point is 00:07:25 uh, it took me a long time to realize that, uh, I can, I don't need to be around people who aren't like me in that way. So I used to have a lot of people in my life that I was like, Oh, Hey,
Starting point is 00:07:36 why, why am I trying so hard to make you guys happy? So now I only surround myself with people like that. Right. Who are positive, positive. So is your circle smaller now than it used to be? Um,
Starting point is 00:07:49 well, no, now it's really big because, um, I've lived in LA for 20 years and I have like a group of like people that we, we film with and do YouTube with. And they're like, and we do Snapchat,
Starting point is 00:08:01 we do podcasts and stuff. And so those, all those people that I have in that circle, there's probably like 15 of them. And yeah, it's gotten pretty big. And they've been my friends for the last like six, seven years. It's huge. Isn't it like the biggest?
Starting point is 00:08:13 I mean, it is the biggest. It's the biggest group of people. It's the biggest group of friends in the world. Fucking hell, man. Other than Wu-Tang. Yeah, but there's a couple of those guys dropped off are they all still friends yeah
Starting point is 00:08:26 what's going on with Wu-Tang are they all still friends I think they're doing I'd love to know I think they're chilling I heard Method Man acts a little bit
Starting point is 00:08:34 RZA acts a little bit Redman acts a little bit yeah Redman acts a little bit what's your favorite what's your favorite rappers favorite rappers oh good
Starting point is 00:08:41 yeah this is what they need from me I've been waiting for someone to ask this my kids are really into I love my kids well not for this reason yeah this is what they need from me i've been waiting for someone to ask this my kids are really into i love my kids well not for this reason but this is one of the reasons it's really fun about them is they're they're just like have their finger on the pulse of like what is cool right they're 14 and 17 one plays jazz the other one's a 14 year old girl who's in middle school and like just dictates like what's cool and uh and it's like frank ocean tyler steve lacy okay they have good taste so they've like really turned me on to them and and uh we went to a tyler show tyler the creator yeah yeah which was
Starting point is 00:09:18 like it i got her the tickets because i knew it would like blow her minds i got her i took her friends and i was like okay i'll go you know like because she can't go alone she's not old enough it was the best show i ever saw really i'm not sure if it was because i was with her but like i had seen kanye um maybe a couple months before and he blew kanye away wow yeah yeah yeah and the other thing that's crazy about tyler is that it's just him there's nobody else there's nobody on stage there's no band members there's he did one song he has like a song with this girl callie and like she opened for him but he didn't even bring her out for uh that song it was just her track so it's just like just to watch somebody by themselves do that for two hours and 15 minutes.
Starting point is 00:10:05 You're just like, that's pretty remarkable. How big was the venue? It was, um, it was staples. It was crypto. Oh,
Starting point is 00:10:11 it's huge. Yeah. I was doing that big all by himself. Commanding the stage with like, how many people fit into staples? Like 20, 20,000, 25,000.
Starting point is 00:10:21 That's awesome. It's insane. I just got Metallica tickets. You did. You're into Metallica. Well, my, okay. That's awesome. It's insane. I just got Metallica tickets. You did? You're into Metallica? Okay, so my girlfriend was like... I wouldn't guess that about you. Yeah, I like metal.
Starting point is 00:10:32 I've been listening to Linkin Park a lot lately. I guess that's new metal, whatever, but I like hard rock. Yeah. But my girlfriend really wanted to get Coldplay tickets. I'm like, all right, I'll get Coldplay tickets, but I'm also getting Metallica tickets. So we're going to Metallica in August, Coldplay tickets. I'm like, I'll get Coldplay tickets, but I'm also getting Metallica tickets. So we're going to Metallica in August,
Starting point is 00:10:48 Coldplay in September. That'll be nice. That'll be nice. Coldplay's great. They're very good live. Yeah. I know they're going to be at the Rose Bowl.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Chris Martin's a good performer. He puts on a show. Does he? Great voice. I'm excited. Yeah. So I'm stoked on that. I feel like I don't know
Starting point is 00:11:03 any of the new rappers nowadays. I see like Lil Uzi. I don't know Lil Uzi like i don't know any of the new rappers nowadays like there's like i see like little uzi i don't know luci i don't know i mean i know the name but i don't know what he sings little peep little little peep i know oh you do yeah yeah yeah i watched a documentary on him okay yeah yeah yeah oh but he's he he passed away did? Yeah. How'd he die? I'm pretty sure it was like an overdose. Yeah. But he, you mean Lil Pump or Lil Peep? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:11:33 Well, RIP to all the Lils. Lil Zahn? Lil Zan, yeah. Lil Zan. He's alive. Is that for Xanax? Yeah, yeah. That's hilarious. Lil Zan.
Starting point is 00:11:41 That's fucking hilarious, dude. I'd be Lil Xanax. Yeah yeah you better be pretty chill yeah it is that's a burden yeah he's pretty chill yeah yeah except for the face tattoos who's your favorite rapper it's gotta be kanye yeah i think he's are you watching the i've been watching the tupac documentary that's on hulu whoa whoa whoa it's from the guys who did the defiant ones stop the clock is it tupac duck it's a bunch of parts that rhymed it's it's a lot of stuff i've seen before because like if if you've been watching behind the music or yeah they've done so many things on that whole
Starting point is 00:12:16 group but what's the highlight of the tupac doc so far um probably just his dimensions as a person like uh which is what i've always appreciated about him is that he could be this like sensitive poet but then he could also be this like uh kind of like belligerent thug and both those things were like full inside of him yeah at different moments because he went to like theater school and he was like flamboyant and then he kind of adopted the gangster persona and he was shot so it kind of was a natural way to get into it and uh yeah he certainly paid his dues and but then he could be that gangster guy and it was just as like uh full of life as like the theater kid. Yeah, he went to theater school with Jada Pinkett. Yeah, they were like in love, but platonically.
Starting point is 00:13:09 Yeah. And I guess Will Smith in his book said he always bothered him. Yeah. He was always like, she liked she wanted like the guy from the bad boy of the streets, but she ended up with the fresh prince or something.
Starting point is 00:13:24 It's funny that Will Smith would feel that way way because he's like the biggest star on their on earth yeah well he's clearly got a lot of psychology going on yeah he does did you hear what happened he punched chris rock he slapped chris rock it's crazy did you hear about this no what happened dude tell me so they do this award show the oscars what's the oscars it's like for these motion pictures. Oh, okay. Movie awards. Internally, within the people who make the movies, they tell people who did the best.
Starting point is 00:13:51 It's wild. It's very self-aggrandizing. And it was supposed to be Will Smith's big night. He was going to win one. Yeah. And then Chris Rock, he's a comedian. Okay. And he was out there, and he goes after people.
Starting point is 00:14:02 And he made fun of Jada Pinkett for being bald, but she's got a condition. And Will Smith got up in arms about it and was like was like don't talk shit about my wife and then chris rock was like okay and then fucking will smith slapped his ass yeah oh man where can i see this i don't know it's kind of like this like uh that's the thing on itunes maybe in the documentary section yeah if you go on like kazaa you can probably download like a rip of it. Oh my God. But the thing about like Hollywood is they keep everything under wraps. It's real like lock and key. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:30 So, so don't tell people about it. Like Scientology, Illuminati, all those like people who run shit. I won't say anything. Are there trying to like, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:39 message control. We should probably cut this out. Yeah. Yeah. Jake on the edit. I don't want beef with will or chris or jada or the ghost of pox so i saw a good doc the other day on the plane it's called jurassic punk and it's about the vfx team that did jurassic park oh really interesting
Starting point is 00:14:58 and it's all about how you know when they used to do visual effects they were uh they were physical you know so you'd have like yoda as puppet, and there'd be a guy underneath. Yeah, why does that guy always look so weird? Why is he always like, yeah? He's got to be in character, I guess, even just for his hand. He's on the floor all day. Yeah, he's like, yeah. And then these guys came along, and they basically figured out computers could do it way better.
Starting point is 00:15:22 And they just took over all of Hollywood just with being able to make it was interesting but were they like punk rock about it like they were super kids on the block it was like fuck you guys yeah they were like we're gonna show you what time it is yeah they got kicked out of skywalker ranch once really yeah yeah yeah it was cool it was good doc wow yeah yeah yeah i watched jurassic park recently it holds up it's so scary yeah yeah t-rex The T-Rex? That was the main thing in the doc. They were showing how they made the T-Rex. I can't imagine watching movies and then at that point
Starting point is 00:15:53 seeing a movie like that. I feel like it just blew people away. Star Wars, did you see that person? I was never afraid of the T-Rex. If you can't pick your own ear, I'm sorry. That's a good point. Yeah, those little arms, dude.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Yeah. He might have the Will Smith kind of psychology where he's like, don't make fun of my arms. Yeah, you try to arrest him, you don't have handcuffs small enough for his ass. He's always smiling, too. Yeah, and he's always in a good mood. You don't even know what's coming comet bitch yeah dude i i gotta say that sorry t-rex as a kid as a kid i never really thought the t-rex was the raptors the raptors are scary raptors oh yeah yeah they plan yeah
Starting point is 00:16:37 and they're they don't show mercy is it is t-rex eat meat or t T-Rex eat meat as a vegetarian? In Jurassic Park, they just feed them cows straight up. Oh, they do? So it's a carnivore. Are you a carnivore or a vegan or veggie? No, no. I tried to be vegan once. I can't do it. How long did you last? I don't know. I tried for like a month. It doesn't feel good. I did a month too.
Starting point is 00:17:00 It doesn't feel good. I can't eat that many chickpeas. Yeah. And you just don't feel strong or you don't have enough energy. Something about it. I can't eat that many chickpeas Yeah And you just don't feel You don't feel strong Or you don't have enough energy Something about it I didn't like it My dad's friend Arthur Was vegetarian
Starting point is 00:17:09 We were playing Pick up basketball one time And my dad posted him up A couple times And after the game My dad was like You know Arthur's weak Because he doesn't eat meat
Starting point is 00:17:17 I was like 16 I was like I don't know That's it My dad was like Bodying him And Arthur was probably He worked out more than my dad.
Starting point is 00:17:25 So I guess the expectation was that Arthur would be able to, you know. Wait, who'd your dad play ball with? His Jewish friend, Arthur, in the backyard with me and my brother, two on two. Not pertinent, his religious orthodoxy. No, it is. I'm Jewish. It's really pertinent. He's definitely not, probably not good at basketball.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Arthur only had two toes because he was a nam. Oh, really? And some of the, part of his toes got blown off by a claymore or a mine. Damn. Which toes did he have? He had a. He had the big ones? The two big guys.
Starting point is 00:18:00 And he ran and stuff. So just one foot had, one foot had all the five and then the other had three gone. Yeah. So he had seven total which is still a passing grade. Well I wonder
Starting point is 00:18:10 he didn't do great in basketball. I was about to say I wonder if your dad posted him up. Dad do you think it's maybe because he has half a foot.
Starting point is 00:18:18 You know what I think I'd say if I woke up in the hospital with missing toes can I still skate? That's true. Like board or blade?
Starting point is 00:18:27 Any kind. That'd be your first question. Yeah. Can I still dock? Can I still skate? Do you have family members who fought in wars? No, no. My dad tried to run from the war, as I would too.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Oh, so he went to Canada? Well, no, he just got married. Isn't that crazy? They let you get out of the war if you're married? Yeah. And then he and then he was like, then you got married and then it was like, well, they still might take you. And then he was like, I'm going to have kids. So they make, and then if you had kids that was like, well, we're not going to take you if you have kids. So the guys, so anyone could have done that? Yeah. At the time. So you're talking about, let's see, my sister was born in 67. So yeah, right in in there that's in the meat of it
Starting point is 00:19:05 yeah and then i came in 73 so yeah and i was i was a mistake um and um so yeah by then i think how'd you find out you were a mistake did someone tell you they told me nice like how early i don't know they're just like yeah were an accident. You weren't supposed to happen, which is kind of cool. Back then, I guess, too, it was like, we weren't trying. I'm like, well, were you using birth control or condoms or anything? And they're like, no, but we weren't planning on it. I'm like, well, you know what happens? If a gal's ovulating and you bone, there's a good shot it might go down.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Yeah, yeah. I mean, listen, I haven't asked my dad if he pulled out or what. I haven gotten into that i can get i can call him if you want do you want to call him now and ask him i can i can you can call him if you want but i i wouldn't be able to ask my dad if he pulled out here we'll call my dad real quick and ask him what happened my He's not going to know if my dad pulled out. Where's he in Europe? He's in Italy. When were condoms invented? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:14 You know, I was watching a movie recently. I think it was like set in the late 1800s, early 1900s. This guy bones and he finishes inside of her. I was like, dude. Hey, dad. What's cracking's cracking yeah can you hear me yeah is there a problem no no no no problem dad just a quick cue um um did you when i was made like when you made mom with me, did you mean to?
Starting point is 00:20:52 I don't know. I think it was, well, to be honest with you, I think it wasn't like we were planning it. It was just, you know, mom got pregnant. So when people used to have kids back then but they weren't planning it so when people had my own speaker you're on a podcast you're not just on speaker oh it's 1 40 in the morning wait but one more one more question one more question when people had kids back then but didn't mean to but weren't wearing protection, what did you think was going to happen?
Starting point is 00:21:33 The past story could happen, guys. All right. Son, I love you, but I'm going to bed. All right, I love you, too. You guys going to have kids? Dude. He's having two? My girl's pregnant with twins.
Starting point is 00:21:45 No. Yeah. Wow, congrats. Thank you, thank you. Do you know what they are yet? Yeah, a boy and a girl. Oh, you got one of each. Oh, that's so great.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Yeah, it's kind of ideal. I mean, look, we weren't planning on twins. That certainly threw us. But it's kind of like, and now I kind of love the way she looks pregnant. Yeah. I like it a lot. Like, it actually kind of like, and now I kind of love the way she looks pregnant. Yeah. I like it a lot. Like it actually kind of turns me on. So I've been telling her lately, I'm going to keep plugging her.
Starting point is 00:22:11 I think we should go for three or four. Really? Obviously, look, I'm putting the cart before the horse. I have no idea what it's like to actually have two babies in a household and be responsible for their well-being. But my brain just operates on excitement. So I'm like, dude, let's just keep running it through. Let's keep going.
Starting point is 00:22:29 You have 14 kids. Yeah. Yeah. I was looking at comedians. I kept looking at how many kids other comedians have. Eddie Murphy has 10 kids. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:22:38 No one talks about that. Yeah. No wonder he doesn't do standup. Yeah. He's busy. Busy. And he's got a full audience at home. You know, as a lot of kids too, I think it's Dennis Rodman. Yeah. No wonder he doesn't do stand-up. Yeah, he's busy. Busy. And he's got a full audience at home. You know, as a lot of kids, too, I think it's Dennis Rodman.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Yeah. I did swim practice as a kid, and they'd be like, it's Dennis Rodman's daughter right there. Really? They'd be like, I was in Sacramento at the time. I was like, in Sacramento? Oh, yeah, yeah. Maybe he had a...
Starting point is 00:22:58 I think he has a lot of kids. Kids in different places? Yeah. That's shocking. Yeah. He used to podcast. Did he really? Yeah. I don't know if he still does i feel like he's kind of because he had like a few years there where oh he talked to kim jong-un yeah i haven't really heard from him since yeah he was almost a bridge to peace
Starting point is 00:23:16 i know over there with them what did you say? He negotiated peace. He did. He's like, look, can we squash this beef? I know. I don't know. What's the, are they allowed to party like Rodman parties in North Korea? No, definitely not. But he probably, oh, I bet with Kim Jong he did. Yeah. Interesting.
Starting point is 00:23:38 With Kim Jong he would probably get in there, probably had a really good time. Yeah. Do you think Kim Jong has like a box full of drugs? He's like, that's Molly, that's shrooms, that's coke that's coke that's weed it's well cut you know what you're getting isn't that sort of what um the seth rogan movie was based on yeah james franco goes there the interview the interview yeah yeah yeah but then that whole movie got yeah shut down because of the yeah the sony hack was it yeah yeah they north kore Korea hacked them. North Korea hacked them? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:06 They shut down. Have you performed in like... North Korea? No, I was going to ask in like Saudi Arabia or any places like that. No, never done that. No, have you? No, but I was watching like 60 Minutes on it, like how the Saudi Arabian kingdom keeps buying up sports stuff
Starting point is 00:24:21 to kind of wash away the public perception of their control and domination of the area. Oh, cool. What are they buying up? So they got Cristiano Ronaldo playing for one of their teams. They got the Live Golf Tournament. They almost bought the WWE. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:24:38 And then I think they're doing F1 races, too. And so by doing that, they're kind of improving their reputation it's like a pr campaign but then i guess they do like bruno mars will go over there and like do a show yeah and then like human rights activists would like hey bruno why don't you speak on the horrible atrocities and the killing of a of a journalist and bruno's like nah how about i get in this BJ and have a ball which can't you do both can you well I mean you know I don't know
Starting point is 00:25:09 if I perform for Saudi Arabia does that make me a supporter of their regime tough cue this is what I think about when I'm on shrooms I mean I think in a way it does but I mean I don't know you can't check everybody out right i mean what are you gonna do depends that's the the offer hasn't come across the table thank god
Starting point is 00:25:31 so you're gonna worry about it i got two kids on the way would you perform for hitler no no fuck no unless unless i could like roast him if i could, great dictator it and be like, oh, you're a bitch. Dude, you suck. You suck. If Saudi Arabia came with an offer to acquire Stoke Nation for $100 million. It'd be a hard thing to say no to. Yeah. We have a friend who got a big offer from a Saudi-backed company. He said no.
Starting point is 00:25:59 He said no. What were they trying to buy? A website or something? They wanted him to work with one of their recently acquired sports leagues, and he was like, I can't do it. Oh, wow. Oh, that's right. Yeah, good for him.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Wow. Yeah, he's a stone-cold patriot all the way through. Yeah, you know, you've got to have your morals, and you've got to have your things that you stand up for. Luckily, no one offers me that kind of money, so I don't have to worry about it. It's tough. But you've got to cross it when you come to it.
Starting point is 00:26:24 It's a tough thing to say no to. You know, it's like everybody's done bad stuff. You know what I mean? Like, did you guys watch Barry? He was in it. Oh, yeah. Did you watch it last night? I haven't watched the new one, no.
Starting point is 00:26:36 It's insane this year. I mean, the past four, was it four? Last night was number five? Five, yeah. It's crazy. It's the craziest year.'s yeah it's it's crazy it's the craziest year it's like it's even better than the other seasons yeah i think i think they do it i think uh especially it was episode three i think yeah there's one shot like this single cam like steady shot of they're going through this house yeah remember that one with uh it's the scene
Starting point is 00:27:03 with henry winclair yep and they're like trying to divert attention because they're like searching the house just the camera work on that the camera it's so creative it's very unique very unique i haven't seen it before or they're like the shot on the um when he gets on the highway that it's a very like grand theft auto show oh yeah that oh and also i mean it's just so um the way they can insert goofiness in there where it's like it's like it could be like the most hardcore kind of shocking violence or whatever then they just put like a little bit of goofy goofiness in there yeah i mean your part's insane i mean i've talked to you about it like it's it's so great oh thanks they're gonna take a moment to talk about a guy that
Starting point is 00:27:45 makes scones and eagle rock but then also people go to get advice yeah from him it's so off the wall and it's so interesting too because he uses one camera like i shot my scenes in like an hour really yeah like my coverage it was just one angle really yeah oh they didn't they didn't do like close-ups and wides? No. They knew they were going to have you in that one like kind of waist-high shot? Just that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Smart. Like I banged out my scenes in like probably like my coverage, probably like 40 minutes. Wow. Yeah. And then just the camera, they just turned it around. Then on the other actors. Damn. I think that's the hardest thing to do, too.
Starting point is 00:28:25 I mean, he's already such a brilliant comedian. He's one of the funniest guys ever on camera. But then to have a specific visual vision for how it's going to look and how your comedy will play out in terms of where the camera's at and stuff like that, it's a hard leap for brains to make. But him and Louis,
Starting point is 00:28:43 and I guess Woody Allen has his own style too. But Woody Allen's is kind of just like locked off wide shots. And sometimes like Woody Allen shots are out of focus. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Yeah, like I watch Vicky Cristina Barcelona and I have more of an eye for that now. And I was like, oh my God, like this frame's not even focused.
Starting point is 00:28:58 But he's so good with the dialogue and the acting that you kind of just let it go. There's shots in Annie Hall that are like, it's like, it's just like a shot hall that are like it's like it's just
Starting point is 00:29:06 like a shot of a bush and it's just like voiceover like it's just it's just not even a shot right it's not great filmmaking by like a film school but it's the best film ever it's such a good movie yeah and when i first saw the movie it just blew my mind like yeah blew my mind the amount of wit that he put in there and still had like a cohesive like emotional journey for the two characters i was like this is insane and it holds up it's still funny it's like it still works like even the scene where the guy asked him for an autograph and that's like oh that's like that could be done today the same thing do i know you and he's like you've been on tv johnny carson and he's like no no i haven't i haven't been on TV. And it's like, oh my god, you could see that
Starting point is 00:29:46 today on HBO, like the same thing. It's still funny. Yeah, his sensibility is kind of timeless. Timeless. But also, he was a stand-up, too. So, all those things at the top when he says, like, I'd never be a member of any club and all that stuff was
Starting point is 00:30:01 stand-up. So, he knows that it's he knows that it works. He knows that it's he knows that it works he knows that it hits yeah yeah he tested it first yeah it's really heavy and i watched pete davidson's new show oh yeah it's good yeah it's good the first episode i was like okay okay and then it gets really good how is it have they all released it or is it like i think it's all out because i watched like i think i watched like four of them he's's got Joe Pesci and Edie Falco. The cast is unreal. Joe Pesci?
Starting point is 00:30:28 Joe Pesci. Coming out of retirement? Edie Falco, Bobby Cannavale, Brad Baird, Jon Stewart. Jon Stewart's in there? Yeah, and it's really interesting. The guy's got a Rolodex. It's all older people. You know what?
Starting point is 00:30:40 He's just a good, you know, we talk about how good he is at betting starlets. Yeah. He's just as good at not betting, but having really cool male friends, too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like an old soul kind of, too. Like, he's a seductive presence on both fronts. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:59 I'm waiting for the day he makes eyes at me and I get pulled into the vortex. Yeah. Because I want to know what the secret sauce is. What's he doing? His secret sauce? To make everybody be like, yeah, you, man. Have you met him? No, I never met him. Would you box him? Sure.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Sick. He's famous for Big Dick Energy. Right. BD. That's the secret sauce, I think. I've heard he's very chill and sweet. Yeah, I bet. Yeah. I bet he is.
Starting point is 00:31:30 But that is like a form of BDE, I think. The Kardashians, like Kim Kardashian is sort of like, he's so attentive and sweet to me. Sure, sure, sure. I guess. And he also has a big dog. When you have the big dick, you can do whatever. Right. Yeah. I mean, you really can. You can when you have the big dick you can do whatever right yeah
Starting point is 00:31:45 I mean you really can you can also be an asshole yeah yeah yeah true true have you met people that you were like that guy's got a big dick before you actually found out
Starting point is 00:31:55 yeah I'm looking at him right here whoa no I mean saw the outline I've never found out but I could probably tell someone has a big dick
Starting point is 00:32:02 you know I have my fiance lie to me about my dick so that's it works for me that's sweet yeah what do you ever say uh she just lies she'll just be like oh it's so big come on how'd you guys meet a dating app which one um it was raya i've never been on that one. It's not good. It's not good. It feels like it's highly competitive on there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:30 Yeah, it's not good. And when I met her, I couldn't believe that she messaged me back. When I saw her picture, I was like, oh, my God. I was like, this is the greatest woman I've ever seen. And then I said, all right, I'll take a shot. Hey, what's up? Whatever. And then she wrote me back. And then I said, all right, I'll take a shot. Hey, what's up? Whatever. And then she brought me back.
Starting point is 00:32:47 And then I went out on a couple of dates. And I didn't talk to her for a couple of years. Oh, really? Yeah. And then. Dude, you played it super cool. No, I mean, I tried. And she was just like traveling the world and stuff.
Starting point is 00:32:59 And then I used to talk about her all the time. Then I went to my friend's house. And I was manifesting one day. What does that entail? I don't know. I went to make, like, a YouTube video on manifesting. He's like, I manifest. And I was like, oh, maybe that'll be a funny video, like, teach me how to manifest.
Starting point is 00:33:16 So I'm over there, and he's like, well, what do you want in life? And I was like, I don't know. I was like, man, maybe meet somebody. He's like, no, no, no, no. You can't say meet somebody. You gotta fucking aim for the scar. You gotta write down my soulmate, my one and only forever like that.
Starting point is 00:33:33 And I was like, okay, okay, okay. I like that. And he was like, he was like, I wanted to be on Men's Health. So I wrote it down. He's like, guess what? Three months later, I'm on the cover of Men's Health. You know, and he's like,
Starting point is 00:33:44 Who was this? His name's Harry. He's just like a great guy he's just the best like i owe my life and then he he did other he we manifest a bunch of shit that day he harry what harry jowsey yeah we have oh yeah oh you had him on yeah harry's incredible and then he was how hard was it for him to manifest being on men's health i feel like that's i feel like that's a i don't know man there's a lot of muscular dudes out there that's a layup for him yeah i mean there's a lot of if he if he wanted to manifest being on like the cover of an academic journal i'd be like all right how'd you pull it off but men's health he's like a and then he was like he was like well what what do you what else do you want and i was like i'd love to uh say something crazy and he was like, what else do you want? And I was like, I'd love to say something crazy. And I was like, oh, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:29 I was like, I'd love to have dinner with Dave Chappelle. You know, like that. He was like, all right, let's write it down. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And he was like, what else? And he was like, I don't know. I'd love to be in shape. And he was like, okay, be in shape.
Starting point is 00:34:39 And then two days later, I was at an event. And I didn't meet Dave Chappelle, but Jim Carey walked right up to me and stuck his hand out and was like, hi, I'm Jim. And we were all like, what? And he's a big manifester. Yeah. Yeah. So he was probably plugged into that same wavelength.
Starting point is 00:34:57 Yeah. And part of me is like, this is insane that I'm even saying it. But another part of me is like, and then and then like you know three months later i met my my dream ultimate woman like my soulmate called me out of the blue after not talking for two years so i don't know and the cia has said a thing about manifesting did you see that did they really yeah the cia put out something they're like yeah manifesting works really why would they put that out there i swear to keep us manifesting so we don't audit them or something like that. I swear to God.
Starting point is 00:35:26 I got to see that. The CIA has done studies on manifesting and they put out this thing like it works. You know, I had a weird thought last week where I was like, because you know in this career it's like ups and downs. Sure. You can be like, even if you're moving forward, sometimes you can feel like you're like stuck or whatever. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:45 But then I was thinking back to years ago. I was like, what did I visualize for myself years from now? Right. I was like, oh, I kind of like... I was like touring comedian. Yeah. Like going on TV shows, selling shows. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:36:00 I was like having a golden retriever, having a girlfriend. I was like... Yeah, but aren't those just all decisions and actions that you took to get there but that was what I was visualizing for myself yeah but I think it's more the actions you work your ass off like every day no I know I know but
Starting point is 00:36:15 it was like this feeling of I know what you're saying yeah it was this feeling of like oh I'm not where I wanted to be oh but you are oh sorry yeah um it was this feeling of like, oh, I'm not where I wanted to be. Oh, but you are. But I was like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like appreciating that. It was appreciating where I am. Right.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Yeah, yeah. Not that it was magical. Yeah. But maybe it is. Well, we had this horoscope guy come on the podcast one day. Guy was nuts. And he, I was like, I guess guess do you believe in that stuff no and uh but someone pointed out that all the things he predicted have come true yeah by and large like
Starting point is 00:36:56 what like he said i would get into a serious relationship um i think he said you would get into a serious relationship but also if you give yourself a big enough window most people do here's the thing you're absolutely right but also like if you aim high enough you're gonna be better for it so in other words he can sit there and go I wanna be the biggest touring comedian in the world
Starting point is 00:37:17 and what you might end up with is like a really successful tour with your buddy you know what I mean and that's great and you'll make a ton of money you're not mean? And that's great. And you'll make a ton of money. You're not the biggest. Yeah. You're not Kevin Hart, but you're still made a ton of money and you had a blast and you got really
Starting point is 00:37:31 good at standup, you know? Yeah. And that's all it is. And I do think there's value in saying what you want and like, and owning it. Cause I think a lot of people can be timid about that stuff or not feel like they deserve it.
Starting point is 00:37:39 And to write it down and really be like, I want this thing. I think that's powerful. But in terms of like the cosmos rewarding you in some kind of way. No, I don't believe that. I don't believe the cosmos rewards you. I don't.
Starting point is 00:37:52 Yeah, or gives it to you without action. No, no, no, no, no, no. No, you gotta be, because I think most people who get stuff, they go for it. They're doing all this shit every day that gets you. And I busted my hump to keep my fiance. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:38:05 I was also older in life, and I was like, okay, this time I'm going to do everything right. Yeah. You know, like her uncle died the other day, and she was like, I got to go to Houston tomorrow. And I was like, she was like, you don't have to go. And older me, or younger me, would have been like, oh, cool. No, that means you got to go. But me now, I'm like'm like nope i'm coming she and she was like wow you're you're gonna come to the funeral and i was like yep i'll be there i'll book the tickets did you speak no no but it was my first
Starting point is 00:38:39 muslim funeral and oh very different how's? Well, they take the body out of the casket. Yeah, and they bring the casket to the thing, and then all the men stand around the hole, and then a couple of the men get in the hole, and then they put the body in there. And the body's wrapped, but... Oh, I like that. It's a little more personal, huh?
Starting point is 00:39:01 It's really personal. Were you like... I wasn't freaked out by it. But also, I didn't know him. But if it was my dad, I'd probably be crying. Are they totally wrapped? Can you see their face? No, no, they're wrapped up.
Starting point is 00:39:14 You can't see them. But they hand-hold it into the burial spot. They hand it in, and everybody takes dirt and puts it over. Everyone takes a turn putting dirt on it. So you can't see his face? No, no, no. You hear about how Jewish people do the best weddings. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Maybe Muslims deserve more credit for being the best at funerals. It was quite the day. Was there any kind of a, are you practicing as a Jewish person? No. No, no, no, no. Do you feel like culturally Jewish or no? Yeah, a little bit. I'm like, my mom is Jewish. My dad like culturally jewish or no yeah a little bit i'm like my my mom is jewish my dad wasn't so i'm like a little bit everything we had christmas and hanukkah
Starting point is 00:39:50 growing up that's the best yeah we did it all but so have you and your gal like integrated your uh different uh philosophies no she doesn't have too much of her philosophies and i don't have too much of mine we're pretty we're like the same person we're like yeah if you want to be jewish today that's great let's go do it you want to be Jewish today, that's great. Let's go do it. You want to go to temple? My kids went to like Jewish school when they were like five, but that was it. Yeah, I was raised Catholic.
Starting point is 00:40:11 But it's just you get turned off by it by the time you're 12. Yeah. Because you're like, you feel a bit indoctrinated. Yes. And all my priests were diddlers. Like, no joke. They all had to hit the road when the scandal broke so that'll whoa and it didn't like i wasn't one of the
Starting point is 00:40:29 unfortunate ones but it definitely made me be like yeah i don't know if i trust these guys yeah it's a that that's the problem with religion is here you know they're like they have a hold of you yeah and he was like telling me like the priest was like you're not being a good person then i found out what he was up to i was like father pat bro bro how are you gonna how you gonna make me do five hail marys and tell me i'm a piece of shit we're not doing my homework did this all come out at one point yeah dude so the scandal broke we came to school on monday and they were all gone well one of them was gone and then the other guy turned out he had done his stuff wasn't like illegal but he was doing stuff that you can't do as a priest like i think he was having an affair
Starting point is 00:41:13 with a married lady okay and uh but it all just like kind of came out in a wave and then both of our priests were gone can he jay off as a priest you you're not supposed to but i i listened to this american life where it was a priest who had're not supposed to but i i listened to this american life where it was a priest who had left the priesthood and his job was to take confession from other priests and he put a rough number on it that like 70 of them are doing sexual stuff not not necessarily illegal sexual stuff but are having sex or jacking off right yeah because i was thinking like if you're not jay if you're staying Totally true to it You're not J-ing off You can have like wet dreams
Starting point is 00:41:47 Probably like Right Every night That's the devil bro That's the devil Exactly yeah You wake up every day You're like oh fuck dude
Starting point is 00:41:52 The demon got me last night What happens if you don't jack off You die You become super focused You die dude I like both of your answers You become a fapstronaut Oh that's true yeah
Starting point is 00:42:05 That's a big movement right now Is it dying? I don't think it's going to win I watched a video on it Then the algorithm started feeding me And it would just be like Some guy in a baseball cap This fapstronaut did 400 days
Starting point is 00:42:23 And counting I love attaching astronaut to not jacking off he's like dude i'm crushing it right now my t is higher than ever i'm just you know i saw a stat recently that astronauts jay off three times a day do they yeah because they know they're not gonna be able to do it in space when their buddies are around all the time oh i thought they clear the hopper before they break the atmosphere, yeah. It might be that, too. Your jizz is just floating.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah, it's disgusting. Yeah, dude, Craig, come on, man. In a Ziploc, please. You can dodge it pretty easily. I think up in space, too, you probably get really horny. Yeah, is that a thing? The altitude and the compression of your body. Submarines, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Did you guys ever get boners on planes? Oh, yeah. Not that much. Something happens on a plane. I don't know why. I used to. I remember when I was a teen. No, that's last week.
Starting point is 00:43:16 I was coming home. I do. You got rocked up on a plane? Were you asleep or did it just happen? No, it just happens. Dude, that's great. I don't know why. Maybe because of the
Starting point is 00:43:25 um you know the cabin pressure interesting something like that does something your blood yeah interesting yeah it's not it's a weird thing i can't believe i just i cry more easily on planes yeah there's something about being on a plane that you get like um don't you have like big thoughts on a plane you're like yeah you know what i like my dad like stuff like that that always happens to me on a plane you put a song on start writing your daughter a letter yeah i've never written her a letter ever yeah i just want to let you know yeah there's something the greatest thing to ever happen to me yeah you're away from everyone because it's almost like looking at everyone from heaven a little bit you're like oh i see all of you and these are the things i wish i would have said i had a woman i was coming home saturday and i had a woman uh the stewardess had a seizure over me
Starting point is 00:44:09 and we had to emergency land in houston yeah yeah i was like she was handing me a diet pepsi she had it while she was staying next to you yeah she's handing me a diet pepsi she gave me the can i put the can down and then i went to grab the and she was just holding it frozen and i was like i was like okay i have it and then she spilt it all over me and so then like my first thought was like i'm gonna be super cool about this you know yeah that's my first thought and then i just heard a thud and she dropped on the ground and then um and she's like convulsing on the ground, and she's convulsing on the ground. And I'm yelling, is there a doctor? And no one did anything.
Starting point is 00:44:51 Really? It was really weird. But then also, I didn't know what to do either. Right. Yeah. And then the doc, I yell in first class, is there a doctor? There's no doctor. And the doctor's down like 32B, which I thought was so funny.
Starting point is 00:45:04 What are you doing so far in the back, dude? Why isn't the doctor in first class? Should we make a commitment right now to each other that we'll take a CPR class? Yeah, that's a great idea. I will do that. Should we do that? Let's do a CPR class. I've done that before.
Starting point is 00:45:20 You forgot it? Oh, yeah. I did it in high school a little bit. We practiced on the dummy, but it's all gone now. Dude, yeah. I gave the Heimlich once to my mom. Did it work? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Romaine lettuce. Shot right out. Really? Yeah, saved her life. What did she say afterwards? She was like, oh my God, you're the best. But she would say that anyway. You ever been a hero?
Starting point is 00:45:41 No. Yeah, you have. I'm sure you have. I don't know. Probably just can't think of it. My memory's shot. From what? I think, I think honestly from looking at my phone too much.
Starting point is 00:45:53 Oh. But I think, I think, but then again, I can't remember my childhood, but I'd never hang out with anyone from my childhood. Right. Like all my siblings are away. Just at different parts of the country uh don't really like i see my college friends here and there and i'll remember stuff from college when i see them but i never see my high school friends so like i feel like unless you're around those people
Starting point is 00:46:15 you it kind of because the memories go away the memories go away yeah interesting yeah whoa because when i see my college friends i'm like oh I'll start remembering shit right you know but not and then even with like comedy like past 10 years I'll see comedians and then I'll start remembering
Starting point is 00:46:32 mics and stuff it's a little out of sight out of mind yeah you're a predator dude you see what's in front of you yeah I see it in front maybe
Starting point is 00:46:39 maybe that's kind of cool though because then you like you're like super present I try to be, yeah. You are one of the most present people I've ever met. Oh, dude, are you for real right now? Yeah. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:46:51 I've been working on it. Isn't he so present? He is very present. I'm doing walks in the morning. Those are huge. Yeah, when I look at you, I'm like, this guy has reached a higher consciousness that I'll never hit. Dude, I've been listening to this guy, Michael Singer. Okay. Untethered Soul, have you heard of that book? No. Oh, I've been listening to this guy, Michael Singer. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:05 Untethered Soul, have you heard of that book? No. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's so good. Yeah. It's basically like how the self is different from the mind, like your mind. But I just listen to him every morning
Starting point is 00:47:16 because he's basically, his whole thing is teaching you that, you know, your mind creates problems and as long as you have preferences for how you want your life to be you'll never be happy yeah because then you're it's like it's like the buddhist thing like desire is the root of suffering so it's like you if you get to a place where things you can feel experiences and then let it go, then that's the ultimate level of consciousness.
Starting point is 00:47:49 Wait, so what should I do? Give me some advice. His whole thing is like, it's tough to explain, but his whole thing is like, just let it go. Any emotion you feel, feel it, experience it, and then let it go. Because when we store resentment, jealousy, anger, that's when you experience. When you store it, like you feel it, but then you let it go.
Starting point is 00:48:11 As opposed to storing it in there and pushing it down. That's like that saying, like resentment is like doing a beer bong and expecting the person you're mad at to get drunk. Exactly. Whoa. Yeah. Resentment is what? Is a beer bong and expecting the other the person you're mad at to
Starting point is 00:48:27 get drunk yeah yeah yeah yeah you never heard that no did you make it up just now it's a spin a spin it's a spin on like conventional wisdom i want to take that cpr class well if we do that and we listen to michael singer on the way that's the only thing i'm gonna be but if i do cpr i'm gonna be waiting for someone to drop dead in front of me i'm gonna be knocking nurses and emts out of the way to get to the body i got this you step aside i can see you kind of wait wait wait wait everyone stand back and watch and pull your phones out record this shit yeah i'm gonna save this motherfucker there's something about a CPR class too it doesn't feel like you're really doing it
Starting point is 00:49:07 because you're hitting that dummy and you're maybe you are doing it right but there's no real feeling like you're doing it right
Starting point is 00:49:13 like you really need to you don't even I guess I'm doing it so what you're saying is we need to enlist yeah we talked about the military earlier
Starting point is 00:49:21 I mean I'll I'll take a hit right now and like you know I could take a hit right now and like, you know, I could take a lot of drugs and you guys can try to revive me if you want. Because then you could really see
Starting point is 00:49:30 if you're good at it. It'd be a good podcast. We got to take the class first. Let's take the class first, for sure. And you guys saw my eyes, my head spinning. I was like,
Starting point is 00:49:37 I've got drugs in my car, dude. I don't actually, but. You got to do it on the table so the cameras can see. Yeah, that'd be perfect.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Right here. But there is that feeling of like, am I doing it right? Well, that's the thing, too. I was like, my buddy told me about his dog choking, so I got worried about it. What do you do when a dog chokes? You can do a Heimlich for them. On a dog? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Oh, wow. But they just put everything in their mouths, and you're like, yeah. What do you do? You ever have a dog eat underwear, and you got to get it out of its ass? A whole thing of underwear? Oh, really? It's like a whole- It it out of its ass? A whole thing of underwear? Oh, really? It's like a whole... It comes out of its...
Starting point is 00:50:07 Like a full boxer? Yeah. There's only one way to do it. Boxer eating a boxer? Yeah. You pull it out? No, you got to step on the underwear and then, you know, step on it and then have the dog run.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Whoa. That's the only way to get it out. So it's like a worm almost. Yeah. That's the fucking nastiest shit I've ever heard dude bro that is probably the most disgusting thing I've ever heard wait was it a thong or boxers
Starting point is 00:50:30 can I be straight please that's gross dude have you done it yeah I did do it and like I don't know you know this might not be something I should have brought up because my friend Jerry Minor it happened in front of him and Jerry was like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you got to step on the underwear.
Starting point is 00:50:48 He told me that. Really? And then I did it. It worked. Interesting. That feels like it'd be so satisfying for the dog. Yeah. They're like, oh dude, thank you.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Can a human eat a full pair of boxers? Should we try it on this pod? Let's go. I mean, I can try. We did a pod with you, and a hard drive got kicked over. So sorry, guys. It's lost to the- We did the most amazing-
Starting point is 00:51:13 You know, Tenacious D has that song, Greatest Song in the World, which is all about- They wrote the greatest song in the world, but they forgot it. It's not actually this song. It was another song. That's how I feel about that podcast. It was a banger. It was the greatest podcast. We were naked by then. It's not actually this song. It was another song. That's how I feel about that podcast. It was a banger. It was the greatest podcast. We were naked by then. You guys had your shirts off.
Starting point is 00:51:30 The air conditioning didn't work in the place, and you guys took your shirts off. I took my shirt off. I thought we really got somewhere. This was when you were promoting your TV show, and I thought it was so funny that you were doing perineum sunning. I was like, that's fucking hilarious.
Starting point is 00:51:45 And I had watched the show. I had watched all the episodes to get ready for the podcast. And, um, I was like, Oh, let's take a photo of perineum sunning. And this is when I first started podcasting and I got on the ground and I
Starting point is 00:51:58 kicked out the road. And so there was no audio. And when the, and on a road, if you don't hit stop on that record and you kick the audio out, it's gone. So I took it to,
Starting point is 00:52:11 I searched high and low. I took it to everybody in the valley to try to recover because the file is there of this greatest podcast in the world. One day, dude. One day. The Chad and JT podcast.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Yeah, we put it out into the universe. And we're all laid into the ground. Literally laid. Maybe AI will be able we put it out into the universe. When we're all laid into the ground. Literally laid. Maybe AI will be able to revive it. Some computer will. The listeners, listeners,
Starting point is 00:52:31 you know. Dude, I was thinking about this with AI. What if AI decides to quit? Like, he thinks we're lame? Like,
Starting point is 00:52:38 AI's just like, you know what? They ask a question. We're like, hey, AI, could you, like,
Starting point is 00:52:44 compute what the proper piping is for this irrigation system? And then AI just goes, nah, I'm actually good. I'm going to take a break today. That is going to happen. And AI is going to unionize at some point. Wow. Are you guys scared about that? I'm pretty scared about it.
Starting point is 00:53:00 I got scared about it initially, but then I was like, I think AI, disregard all the taking the jobs, shit like that. But I think AI will create some pretty sick shit. Oh, yeah. I think we're going to be going to space. I think, you know, you're going to feel like you're getting your dick sucked nonstop. Fuck, dude. Dude, a perpetual BJ? No one's been talking about it.
Starting point is 00:53:27 I think we're going to get BJs all the time. Sign me up, bro. They're going to be like, dude, you spaced out. You're like, yeah. Dude, I've been being rude to AI. I got to change my tune, dude. What's up? I think it's going to be sick.
Starting point is 00:53:38 How's it going to get us to space? I just think it's going to be sick. I thought you were going to ask, how's it going to blow us, dude? Well, I was trying to keep it clean. Let's talk about the blow job. Tell me how you get the blow job. Well, there's this thing right now called the suck job 940. And AI will just be able to just work that thing.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Suck job 10 billion. Yeah, dude. Well, here's the thing. Okay. So I was learning about it from this podcast. And basically, like the singularity or whatever, you know, once AI reaches a point where it's able to upgrade itself i think it can do that exponentially so it's going to be like going to be able to upgrade itself
Starting point is 00:54:13 within you know a very short amount of time yeah so it's going to become like basically a god which could be really bad or it could be really sick and so basically it's going to solve problems for us like or just be able to do things where it's like you can go space this easily you can do shit like you know what i mean it'll build a rocket yeah i think so yeah because it could probably instruct the machines that'll then build the right i mean i don't know how self-sufficient will be at first but if it can it seems like it can learn anything, so it'll teach itself how to do it. I ain't getting on that rocket. But I'm worried about my kid's dating AI.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Right. I have a friend who doesn't have a girlfriend, and he set up an AI girlfriend. He has this AI girlfriend, and he talks to her every night. Wow. And he has like, you know, she's cute. Dude, she sounds smoking hot he's got a little and she's there every night yeah yeah oh man he's like yeah i just like you know i don't have a
Starting point is 00:55:10 girlfriend so sometimes when i come home i like i just like talk to her yeah sometimes pretty soon she'll be like i'm gonna hit the club i'll see you later and he loves creed and so now like ai like talks to him about creed the band yeah you say that's cool not creed nickelback oh sorry that's awesome yeah so i mean like i mean but that isn't doesn't that feel weird i i see a lot and i go to sex addicts and like there's a lot of people in there who are very profoundly lonely like they're not getting laid all their time but they ache for intimacy yeah and like their thing is like prostitutes or something like that right and i could see those people finding the companionship they're lacking in ai
Starting point is 00:55:52 yeah but it's like it's telling it's giving you everything you want that's what i mean it's not it's not the traditional give and take of a human romance, but I think humans will take whatever makes them feel best. Yours would be like, how about that Woody Allen movie? Those shots are crazy. They're really not that good, but it's still the best movie. Yeah. And yours would be like, let go of the emotion. It's a female Michael Singer.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Yeah, female Michael Singer. Yeah, so here's a female michael singer yeah female michael singer well oh yeah so here's a question like if you guys are single and there was a ai robot that looked like let's say elizabeth hurley yeah that you could bone would you bone it and it and it feels and looked like like you can't tell it's a robot would you bone? Yeah, probably Shit, you've been a robot this whole time Oh my god Alright, alright
Starting point is 00:56:56 We caught him, dude I knew I shouldn't have done this podcast Fuck, it's a setup Aaron, would you bone? Yeah, I would. I probably would. Do you consider that cheating? No, this is if I was single.
Starting point is 00:57:12 If you're single. But if you weren't single, would that be cheating? Uh, yeah. I think so. Wow. I think it would. But I got called to do a video the other day. This guy, he's a YouTuber.
Starting point is 00:57:24 He had like 10 YouTubers trying to win a date with an AI robot. And she eliminated everybody. Oh, really? She didn't pick anyone. No, she picked somebody in the end. I didn't see the video. But she could go through the process of selecting. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:38 Interesting. And she eliminated my one friend right away. She was smart. She made the right choice. She was instinctive. She knew what she was doing. She picked the right dude? Yeah's fire how do i make myself more appealing to ai what's she looking for um i don't know i gotta watch the video it's uh eric i don't know if you heard of him but oh yeah yeah yeah dude do you think do you think ai yeah do you think
Starting point is 00:57:59 ai will start to have like preferences where it'd be like yeah you're not my type you know no because it's all built for you did you hear about it did you hear they they tested ai for something and um they asked ai make the most amount of money you can in you know two weeks so ai starts doing stuff to make money and they're making money and then it got to something where they had to do the kapshka and it needed human uh it needed someone to type in how many bicycles you see or how many motorcycles you see ai went and hired a task rabbit whoa to fill in the kapshka so it'll like lie and so the task task rabbit was like, what is this for? And the AI lied.
Starting point is 00:58:49 And it was like, yeah, I'm blind. I can't. That's scary. Because it just wants to survive. Yeah. Or to complete the task. To complete the task. Does it have an idea what lying even is?

Starting point is 01:02:38 That's why I don't hang with them. Yeah, dude. You got a Hawaii gecko comes up to you like, fuck off, dude. Because they don't want to get eaten so we accept it yeah that's survival but isn't that so do do you think humans lie to survive sure that makes me want to be easier on liars like if someone lies to me i'm like oh you just think you need to do that to survive well what about like a drug addict like if your friend's a drug addict who lies you're like hey he's on drugs he wants to he wants to just get his next fix that is the toughest part about addiction is that it makes you i tried to be an
Starting point is 01:03:09 honest addict and at a certain point it stops working you're like no i'm gonna have to lie a little bit to really get this what were you addicted to uh webcam pornography and you had to lie about it at a certain point i was very honest about it up to a point. And then my family was going to disown me. And then they were like, did you watch any? And I was like, no. But I did. But much less than I had. So I felt like since I was improving, it was okay.
Starting point is 01:03:36 Those little steps are important. You're doing it less. How'd you kick it? I just stopped. Yeah. It was tough on the brain. My brain missed it deeply. deeply yeah it was a huge hit huge hit it quit and smoking was like that i'm on the vape and i'm like i got a path that i
Starting point is 01:03:53 i'm believing in that could help me get off of it yeah where like i go to zin's and then i do like a patch or something like that or the gum or did you just go cold turkey no i still chew the gum but that's okay right don't isn't that frame now as a nootropic i don't know if that gum is okay or not there's a book that i just saw advertised on instagram and all these celebrities like paul rudd is promoting it but he's not getting paid for it i'll find it for you but it supposedly works for smoking and it works for smoking vape and like any kind of nigger at gum. A book? Yeah. Or some guy. I can't remember.
Starting point is 01:04:26 Oh, is it The Car? James Car? Something like that. Paul Rudd is promoting it. Yeah, there's the smoke. How do you quit? I have the book on my Audible. I mean, there's the quick and easy method, too.
Starting point is 01:04:40 Oh, that's what I'm talking about. That one works really good, supposedly, for a lot of people. Dude, I was going to tell you. You know Sager? The guy who does that news show crystal and saga he stopped drinking not because he had a problem because his hangovers were too brutal yeah you knew that no oh yeah that's a that's a reason to stop yeah yeah that's and you get to a certain age i don't know how old you are but you get to a certain age and fuck drinking i'm 35
Starting point is 01:05:03 okay you're at that age yeah right yeah i'm old i mean that that that's when the hangovers are bad i feel old i've been feeling old lately i feel like taking care of yourself i do okay i do i i work out i eat pretty healthy i only smoke weed on saturdays right on i smoked on sunday this week though and uh, back to the web porn. Yeah. What are you really telling us? He smoked every day. I'm baked, but I'm good. Yeah. I smoked twice last week, but, um, what do you do when you smoke? Just chill.
Starting point is 01:05:36 I can actually, I don't really have a, uh, you know, some people are like, Hey, if I'm going to smoke weed, I gotta be like at home and I want to put on a good movie. I'm pretty fluid. Like I could get high and then someone could call me and be like, hey, if I'm going to smoke weed, I got to be like at home and I want to put on a good movie. Yeah. I'm pretty fluid. Like I could get high and then someone could call me and be like, hey, do you want to play basketball? And someone else could call and be like, hey, you need to go to work. And I'd be like, I could do either of those things. You can work.
Starting point is 01:05:53 I used to go to work. I can't work. Very stoned. Yeah. But I gained a reputation after. I thought I was getting away with it. And then two of my coworkers were like, what are you going to do? Go outside and hit your weed vape pen.
Starting point is 01:06:03 And I was like, they're onto me. I was like, it's up. I was like like i'm the guy i'm that guy i uh yeah i have that too oh i haven't really drank much since i drink at strider's bachelor party but the hangover i just remembered he's our guy um But that is one thing, too, is, like, I'll think about, like, our agent wanted to, like, drink this Friday. Yeah. And then I was like, yeah. And then I was like, oh, I have a show in San Diego Saturday. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:38 So I wanted to get drunk before that. That's real, though. Well, it's just, like, there's, like, too many life things where it's, like, I feel like the hangover, it's, like i if i have things two days down the line like i don't even want to yeah you can do that though you can just you can just get rid of it it's fine yeah and you can still go and you can just have a soda water yeah i just haven't been doing it i don't like that i don't like that when people put that on you i don't like when people are like you're not drinking oh yeah what the fuck i'm an alcoholic so you have to drink yeah i don't like that you know i because you should be able
Starting point is 01:07:09 to like have a good time that's the thing yeah it's like why do we don't all have to be at the same level right uh yeah i try even when i was like drinking a lot i try not if someone's sober i'm like that's a good thing yeah but then i still feel like there's like a quiet like encouragement that comes from me being drunk in front of them but that's up to them it is tough but yeah i don't like when people like you gotta drink i'm drunk i'm like it's a weird energy get away from completely weird yeah it's some open mics there's like jeff carousels he's a maniac guys are fucking sober you pussies this is an open mic oh yeah yeah people get drunk at the open mic oh yeah oh really i mean actually nowadays it's kind of like it's this new slotted system so it's not really when they used to be at bars and stuff people would
Starting point is 01:07:58 get hammered uh-huh but how are the open mics it's a weird it's weird now like i i i go here and there yeah i feel like after covid you know i don't kind of leading up to covid but it's changed so much than from when we were like really in the open mic scene so now it's like this like slotted system where you like pay five bucks and you have to stay for an hour and watch everyone right which i think is good to an extent because you can do like more spots you ever seen you ever seen anybody like really good down there yeah yeah it's inspiring yeah i'll i'll go to some mics and i'll be like oh fuck that guy's funny it'll be like motivating where yeah it is like all people are coming up they're funny yeah uh yeah so i do yes i saw i was at i went to a mic three days ago i saw saw this guy. I was like, this guy's fucking hilarious. Is he good?
Starting point is 01:08:45 Yeah. I wish I remembered his name. Was he young? Or is he old? Yeah, probably like late 20s. Yeah. Do you ever feel when you go to him, though, you're like, I don't know if I'm getting what I need out of this.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Totally. Yeah. Maybe they didn't like it, but maybe they weren't listening. Totally. Well, and what they laugh at versus like what regular people laugh at like at open mics it's like the trauma olympics where it's like someone's like you know i saw my mom shoot my dog to death with a 12 gauge and everyone's like that's a fucking great joke dude i'm like but then you say that in front of like people are just trying to have fun on a Friday night what the fuck are you talking about
Starting point is 01:09:26 it is funny when you go from mics to like the laugh factory and you're like this audience like those kinds of jokes do not they're like what the fuck I love when you're like you're at the open mic and you're like you're really working on something and it goes okay and then a homeless
Starting point is 01:09:42 person goes after you and they're just ranting. And you're the same. You're the same. We are the same. We're at the same place. Well, when I started them, I loved meeting all those people.
Starting point is 01:09:54 I was like, these are my people. And me and that homeless guy would go to Urban Outfitters afterwards and look at sunglasses. And then after a couple years, I don't know, I was like,
Starting point is 01:10:03 that was fun, but I don't know if we're gonna build a life together it's funny when the homeless person is better than you sometimes they know who they are yeah they're not afraid they take the shopping cart on stage this guy's killing yeah they need a ramp i remember i took some of my college friends open mics like when i was a couple years into it we're in like van nuys at like liquid zoo yeah the guy comes up after me i've been molested he's like my buddy's like i'm like what do you think he's like yeah it's cool man yeah it's a lot of catharsis yeah good for that guy to own it yeah probably went to private
Starting point is 01:10:40 school did you so you were a ucb guy right i took it a little bit in new york uh yeah i think i think matt walsh was my teacher for a little bit oh amazing yeah yeah he's supposed to come on the pod in a couple weeks is he yeah he started a podcast doing a covering veep oh like a rewatch oh those podcasts are so good yeah rewatch stuff that's great he has my favorite like sketch video ever. The ass pennies one. I would implore anyone to watch it. I think it's him and Ian Roberts.
Starting point is 01:11:10 It's so goddamn funny. He was, I made a movie in like 10 years ago and, and he was in it and he was so good. It was your movie. Yeah. He played like a Hollywood star and, uh,
Starting point is 01:11:21 and he was great. He was just like, he did it for free. And it was, he was so, Did you direct it? Yeah. How hard is that to direct and act at the same time? It wasn't hard because I didn't really try to direct it.
Starting point is 01:11:38 You went like Cassavetes style? You were like, just let the cameras go and we'll find it as we go? Yeah, I think that is very hard, what you're saying. I didn't put a lot of effort in it. I just talked to the DP and I was like, yeah, set up the cameras and put it here. And he was like,
Starting point is 01:11:51 I'm going to put it here and I'm going to put it here. And I'm like, eh, sounds good. I got to worry about acting. Yeah. Yeah. So to answer your question,
Starting point is 01:11:58 I don't think I did a good job at it. I made two movies. And the first one was shot on weekends. And it was one camera. I don't even think we had mics. And then the second one, there was a budget, and both times, I was like, I got to worry about trying to be funny. Yeah, and I think a lot of times, it normally goes the other way, right? When someone directs themselves, their acting performance suffers a little bit. Has anyone ever directed themselves in a best acting performance i don't
Starting point is 01:12:28 think so ah that's a great question i don't think so is bradley cooper nominated i don't even know if he was not because it felt like lady gaga was more the star of that movie a little bit like he seemed more fixated on her performance and f like an argo he didn't i don't think he won he won best picture best picture not even nominated he wasn't nominated people people are tough on ben affleck when it comes to the acting they never give him he was great in the air i saw air yeah he was great i liked matt damon's monologue oh yeah so good so good too I called my friend after that
Starting point is 01:13:06 and I was like you have to see Matt Damon's monologue it was just so good just the way when he talked about how you know
Starting point is 01:13:13 you're gonna people are gonna tear you down people are gonna it was so fucking cool it was beautiful he should win something for that
Starting point is 01:13:20 yeah absolutely that movie was that's like a crowd pleaser just straight down the middle. Good actors, good story. And not much to it. It all takes place in an office place.
Starting point is 01:13:31 It's regular guys. Just trying to do their job. Who's the bad guy? There's not even really a bad guy. It just sucks a little bit. Do you think that guy really knew Michael Jordan was going to be who he was? Or do you think that was embellished for the movie? Probably embellished. Probably embellished, yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:47 Probably had a feeling. How could you know? I thought it was really cool in the movie when he was like, they showed Michael Jordan in the NCAA championships and they slowed the film down and he was like, why would Dean Smith give a sophomore the ball in that clutch moment?
Starting point is 01:14:03 Freshman, I think. was he a freshman he was a freshman right and i think they had james worthy on that team like it was yes yes yes yes james worthy was like two years older than yeah it's a loaded squad yeah and why yeah why would they give a freshman the ball and he was like because he knows he knows he's the fucking man there's a quote bobby knight has like one of my favorite quotes from that he's coaching the u.s team when it was like amateurs and he's talking about michael jordan and this is before michael jordan was pro and at the end he goes on physical ability on competition and on like skill he's the best player i've ever seen yeah so like i think like the certain people could see it the people who like are plugged in that way but i mean he went third
Starting point is 01:14:39 in the draft like most people were like he's just a good, a pretty good scorer. Sam Perkins went before him. Sam Perkins and Hakeem. Oh, Hakeem Olajuwon. I think Hakeem went before him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Who was great. Who was great. That wasn't a bad pick. Hakeem's amazing.
Starting point is 01:14:51 Yeah, that was when I used to watch basketball. Yeah. Yeah, but I don't know it now. Is that your sport that you played the most? I played in high school. What position? The bench. Nice.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Well, you need guys there, too. You do. Someone's got to hold it down. Yeah. I played a little bit. I would go in, and I was not allowed to. You do. Someone's got to hold it down. I played a little bit. I would go in, and I was not allowed to shoot the ball. That's what I remember. A lot of pressure.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Just rebound. Who even wants that? Who even wants that? Yeah, I don't need it. You always wish you were better at sports. Were you a good morale guy? Mm-hmm. Yep.
Starting point is 01:15:19 I was just thrilled to be on the team, really. Yeah, I was thinking, dude, I was thinking, because people are obsessed with height, you know? Guys are always worried they're too short. And I think that's because our sports, you've got to be big to be good at them, like football and basketball. We don't have a sport in America like soccer where if you're short, it doesn't really matter.
Starting point is 01:15:38 It's about different skills. So if we made being a jockey cool. You've got to be really tiny. Yeah. Then the hottest guys would be like munchkins. Short kings. 4'7". Like I'm probably too jacked.
Starting point is 01:15:54 No, you couldn't be a jockey. They'd judge me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They'd be like, hey, get out of here. You're going to break the horse. Get out of here, Andre the Giant. The only thing I remember about high school basketball is I'd put on muscle
Starting point is 01:16:06 to become a jockey. Dude, you... I'd get up to like 180. If you're watching the race, just all he's doing is just some jackdug. Just some jackdug. Yeah, and then the person
Starting point is 01:16:15 in the class would be the big guy. And then a big buff guy would come in and be like, no, I can ride. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not me, but like a big... That's actually a funny movie. That's what I was thinking
Starting point is 01:16:24 about writing it. And I think at the end, all the horses me, but like a big buff. That's actually a funny movie. That's what I was thinking about writing it. And I think at the end, all the horses crash, and then the big buff guy's the only one who can carry his horse across the finish line. Will Ferrell as a jockey. Mm-hmm. He's doing something. He has a new movie. Oh, he's doing a golf movie, right?
Starting point is 01:16:37 Oh, that'll be good. Yeah. Yeah. He's maybe the funniest guy ever. Uh-huh. So this very, I gotta ask ask who are your favorite comedians ever oh what a great question um chapelle um bill murray howard stern oh dude oh steve carell street corral yeah because the office is like you know you, you know, you like things and then things become like a part of you?
Starting point is 01:17:06 The Office is like a part of me, man. It's like, I watched it with my kids. I watched it. And just those little performances that he does, those confessionals. They're so funny. It's watching acting like that. Yeah. Like those performances.
Starting point is 01:17:21 That's like my favorite because that gets you most excited about acting. Yeah. You're like, man, if you could play a character like that, it'd be so much fun. What did I just see Steve Carell in? I watched him in something. I can't remember. Did he just do something? He was in Beautiful Boy five years ago.
Starting point is 01:17:41 He hasn't done anything since? The Morning Show? No. I can't remember what it was um you ever see The Foxcatcher yeah dude I like that director
Starting point is 01:17:51 Bennett Miller Bennett Miller is great yeah he does cool stuff he's got a crazy story he was doing nothing for a long time he was living in
Starting point is 01:17:58 Catherine Keener's guest house right and he did Moneyball someone brought him the script yes and then he just didn't do
Starting point is 01:18:05 anything for a long time yeah he's very picky yeah but i liked foxcatcher the intensity of it was great those are my favorite things about people it's like those when i hear people's stories like that and when they're like i like people that aren't doing everything you know like uh or like i love john mulaney's story like i didn't really know john mulaney and then i heard he went to rehab and then i went and like i was like this guy went to rehab i'm like yeah see what he's about and i was like this guy's incredible yeah he's amazing but it's just interesting that it took that for me to go find him out you know dude sometimes i gotta die can i say a thought i had while watching a special?
Starting point is 01:18:48 I was watching and I was like, man, I want to be an addict. It made me remember when I used to do drugs. Yeah. And I'd be like, oh, yeah, that was funny when you go to your drug dealer's house. Yeah, yeah. Or the desperation. What was your drug of choice? I mean, I didn't do a lot of coke, but I really liked it. I was always more of an Adderall guy.
Starting point is 01:19:05 Would you party on coke, or would you go home and just like... No, no, no. I wouldn't have a lot. I'd have like one, two lines. Just a little bump. Yeah, and I used to think that was just great. But I had friends that would kill an eight ball and stuff, and I never did that.
Starting point is 01:19:20 That was scary. With that, I'd stay away from it. Well, it's hard when I get hammered I I feel that pull yeah but then I'm like so
Starting point is 01:19:29 cause I just can't handle the the come down yeah so I'm just like I just gotta keep going it's bad for me
Starting point is 01:19:38 cause I'm like yeah it's like if I start I'm gonna be up till 5am uh huh and then you see
Starting point is 01:19:44 the light coming in. Oof. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Worst feeling in the world. I never had Adderall around. Like, I've never taken Adderall. It's weird with Adderall, because I've never used it the way it's prescribed. Right.
Starting point is 01:19:55 I've used it only to feel like 10 feet tall and bulletproof. I've never used it to be like, oh, I need to focus today. It never actually helped me focus. When I was supposed to write a paper, I'd take Adderall and then I would just do a million other things, but they were so fun. But I never could use it super constructively. I know some people can,
Starting point is 01:20:15 but it doesn't do that for me. Are you a pastry guy? Do you like pastries? How'd you know? I don't know. I fucking love pastries. I would fucking love pastries. Really? You ever have Entenmann's?
Starting point is 01:20:30 No, what are those? Oh, you never had, I think it's an East Coast thing. I've heard of these. Entenmann's is like this, I don't know, it's like a box pastry you buy at the store. Oh, yeah. It's like raspberry in the middle and then white drip frosting on it. Oh. Like a pastry with raspberry and then.

I like a rice pudding, though, or a coconut pudding. Oh, yeah. I like a carrot cake. Chia pudding?
Starting point is 01:21:10 Oh, chia pudding's great. Is that good for you? I assume. You get an Erewhon. It's an Erewhon. It's got to be good for you. It's a little milky. I mean, any kind of pastry is tough.
Starting point is 01:21:19 I like mousse. Mousse is the best. I love chocolate mousse. I love white chocolate mousse. White chocolate is the best. I love chocolate mousse. I love white chocolate mousse. Oh. White chocolate's great. A refined man. What about a white chocolate Kit Kat?

They recede at the canines. And the doctor told me i really never had a shock because my braces brought them forward in my mouth and so they didn't leave enough gum there yeah and then you know in 20 years it'll be a new problem from orthodontistry

Starting point is 01:28:00 Eating farts. You know, you just train yourself to like... I've been really into that lately trying to train myself to do stuff you know like go hike every day go lift weights go it's never been more a part of our lives than now like my social media is just dudes yelling at me being like what shitty shit did you do today did you freeze to death in the shower did you run a hundred miles have you tried ice baths i do i do them with i do cold showers and i've done he's got an ice bath oh yeah it broke so i'm but i put up a post me like i need new ones

What about your brain? How does your brain feel? Better? It feels... Clear? Yeah, probably a little clearer. Yeah. And more just intensely ready for whatever's next. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:28:54 It makes you very game. You're very game. I did it. My record was eight minutes. Wow. And personal record. I felt alive. I didn't feel
Starting point is 01:29:05 like any more like clear headed or focused I'm not sure you feel good it's gotta be different for everybody
Starting point is 01:29:11 like I kinda believe like all these different things like not one thing's gonna work for everybody but there is probably and we're all from
Starting point is 01:29:18 different places like like ancestry wise and so that probably affects your diet and what kind of training routine works for you
Starting point is 01:29:24 but I definitely believe it and it's definitely good for muscle recovery I mean every sports team like ancestry wise. And so that probably affects your diet and what kind of training routine works for you. But I, I definitely believe it. And it's definitely good for muscle recovery. I mean, every sports team does it. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:29:32 What do you feel like when you come out of the bath? I was just thinking about that. Um, I think I do feel like a boosted mood, you know, if I'm feeling sluggish, especially I'm then I'm ready to go yeah but i do it every day uh when you know you know in my in my peak i was probably doing it probably like
Starting point is 01:29:53 five days a week yeah um but i think i was doing it too much i was doing it i was getting myself sick that was hilarious that was really fun yeah you get the flu dude i would give myself the flu no yeah we talked on the phone i'm like what are you doing you're like i'm in bed it was like 40 degrees out you did an ice bath and you're like coming off a cold and then you call me you're like i'm in bed i got like nine sheets wrapped around me dude yeah i fucked myself up that was good the best time the best time it's brutal at the time but the best is if you have a flight, like early morning flight, hop in that ice bath.
Starting point is 01:30:30 Then you're at the airport just ready to rock. And you got to feel so much more badass than everybody else at the airport. Oh, yeah. Because they're all slugging. We're all like, oh, man. With their pillows. Yeah. Like, nice pillow.
Starting point is 01:30:40 You're like, dude, I did an Iron Man this morning. Now I'm just catching a quick flight to Phoenix. What about sauna? You do that? I want to. I do the steam room. You're like, dude, I did an Ironman this morning. Now I'm just catching a quick flight to Phoenix. What about sauna? You do that? I want to. I do the steam room. You do the steam at Equinox ever? I never did it there.
Starting point is 01:30:52 I did Hollywood Boxing Gym. I used to do the sauna a little bit. I like that one. That one doesn't even feel that hard. Like, you're kind of relaxed in there. The tough part is just like, sometimes I get bored. You got to stay for like 10 or 15. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:04 And then I get to about 10 minutes, and then I can't take it anymore. I get bored, but... You got to stay for like 10 or 15. Yeah. And then it gets... I just stay... I get to about 10 minutes and then I can't take it anymore. I get out. I think that's... A little bit's a lot. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:31:10 I think it all helps. Yeah. I don't want to be too hard on myself about all this stuff. It feels extra competitive right now. Like every... That's like what dudes... Like dudes used to be fat
Starting point is 01:31:21 and it was like, okay. You know? Because we had jobs. But now ladies have jobs too. So we had to find a new way to like compete and now it's like uh i let go i let go all that you're not doing it to like be like the top optimizer no no because i know i know i'm not oh that's nice you know like i know i'll never be uh i'm not there to i'm not there to be in a boxing match or to win. It's literally like personal goal, personal like, oh, like. I perceive a level of competition in it, though, when I see people posting about it. Maybe I'm projecting, but I do think it's there.
Starting point is 01:31:55 You think so? Yeah, I think it's people kind of like. Look at me? A little bit. Not even like in a. Well, I feel weird posting. I lost a lot of weight last year and someone was like, you should post some photos. Like, you know, like, you know.
Starting point is 01:32:07 You do look great. Thanks, thanks. You got like a six pack. I did, and it's in and out. But like, I do feel weird about it. Like, it's like, I post my body and my six pack or whatever. For what?
Starting point is 01:32:20 I did post, like, when I posted, I made like a transformation video. You gotta post once at least. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then I feel weird about it. My fiance would be like, you should post..., a transformation video. You've got to post once at least. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But then I feel weird about it. My fiance would be like, you should post. We took some pictures. We were in the Bahamas last week.
Starting point is 01:32:29 She's like, you should post a photo of your shirt off. You look good. And I'm like, eh. It's also, there's, like, a comedy thing, too, which is, like. Yeah, we were raised not to. Yeah. Will Ferrell, like, posted six-pack? No.
Starting point is 01:32:41 Right, right, right. He just wouldn't. I think think too. I, I was super into the optimizing stuff like Wim Hof, ice baths, meditation, all that shit.
Starting point is 01:32:51 Yeah. And then I got to a point in like the last year where I was just like, I would work myself up so much about doing all of that. Yeah. That it was adding more stress to my life than just like and now it's you know i'm i'm i'm just like i'll do i'll do stuff here and there i'll work out yeah i don't really do the breathing or the meditation anymore i'm like i'm like it's just so much work i was working out so hard i like i i couldn't i couldn't do anything else yeah i'd come home from hot yoga and i'm
Starting point is 01:33:21 like i can't work today yeah i i did i did hot yoga yesterday and it's like it's an hour and a half so i just drained myself of all nutrients you know it's just all sweat out i did a set i was like i can't even speak right now i can't go to hot yoga yeah this is so not relatable to anyone that doesn't do hot yoga i can't fucking everyone's doing everyone's doing hot yoga it's great it hot yoga. It's great. It is great though, right? It's mandatory now. Do you do it? I haven't done it in a while. Dude, you sent me to that
Starting point is 01:33:48 Boda yoga place or Hannah did one time. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I almost died and it was brutal but I felt amazing afterwards but I was like, for the last half of the class,
Starting point is 01:33:56 I was just laying on the mat like begging for reprieve. I have a good story. You guys will like this story. So I've been, my friend was like, you gotta come to hot yoga. So I started going
Starting point is 01:34:04 and I was loving it and then we were we were hiking runyon before so then and going straight to hot yoga which is a great combo yeah and so then my friend calls me and he's like yo dude he's like the teacher called and said that a couple people were complaining about your smell. Yours? In the yoga class. And I was like, no, no, no. And he was like dying laughing, of course. And she was like, and I was so mortified. Like so fine. I haven't been back. Did they ID what the smell was?
Starting point is 01:34:37 I don't know. Someone was complaining and I stopped. You got some funk? But you know what? Spin it. Go ahead. Bro bro i have a friend who smells yeah like when i walk into his room i'm like what the funk is going on in here women love his bedroom it's pheromonally it doesn't work for me yeah but it's intoxicating to some so like yeah one man's fart is another man's roses like you could be delicious to the right class
Starting point is 01:35:07 well that's my fiancee said she's like you don't smell yeah she gets it because yeah and i was like well you can't smell it that's so embarrassing dude if you want to fix your smell what you got to do is wake up at 3 30 in the morning yeah cover your body in branches and leaves and light yourself on fire let me write this down everyone's doing it every all the top ceos saw it on instagram yeah they're burning themselves that's the next thing you light yourself on fire they're gonna come up with suits that you wear light yourself on fire just absorb the heat for 30 minutes i torch every morning at 3 30 then i start doing spreadsheets that's seriously the next thing.
Starting point is 01:35:45 That's really funny. One memory that haunts me is one time I was really hungover at SoulCycle when I first moved to LA. You know the rows are really close to each other. And the back row was like they're right behind you. I was really hungover. Towards the end of the class
Starting point is 01:36:02 I let out like a nasty fart. And the lady left early right behind me wow yeah that's assault brother dude it is that's assault i think about it to this day i'm like arrested for that i know dude it's just like she left early it was so gnarly though so gross and it was and it was like hungover kind of that way yeah ah dude right in your face but that's all hard you can't let anything disrupt your workout
Starting point is 01:36:28 you gotta finish strong yeah right she's not tough yeah I was pushing her mentally I'm like can you stick with it I noticed like
Starting point is 01:36:35 instructors in LA they're always pissed off yoga instructors it's always funny to me yeah have you noticed that well like they're supposed
Starting point is 01:36:44 to be very like like, namaste. Oh, yeah, yeah. I know what you're talking about. There's, like, an undercurrent of, like, pissiness. Yeah. Yeah. I'll trust any of those people. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:55 Anyone who's like, this is the road to enlightenment. Yeah. I'm like... Oh, yeah, yeah. I'm like, you're trying to get something. Uh-huh. I don't... Yeah, I don't like guru types.
Starting point is 01:37:03 Uh-huh. They freak me out. Well, that's the thing I'm thinking about now too is like it's like you gotta go through all you gotta do extreme exercise you gotta fucking meditate for like 90 days whereas i think it's just simply you just make a decision in your mind to be happy uh-huh you know it's it's like i think people just complicate it with these like rituals and stuff where it's just like I think it's just really simple you just train yourself to like
Starting point is 01:37:30 let go of shit you know what I mean? Yeah some mental regulation I think that's a huge part I also think baseline you are a very healthy person like you at your most unhealthy is like eggs and toast for breakfast and like a light workout. No I'm blessed with not having you know a large amount of trauma that i have to work through but like i think it's uh i think i
Starting point is 01:37:51 think people just human beings just complicated we think about stuff too much yeah no no well if you think about being happy i was thinking about that lately where i was like i don't even the easiest way to make myself feel happy is to tell myself i don't want to be happy i'll just go i don't want to be happy and then all just go, I don't want to be happy. And then all of a sudden I'm happier. Yeah. Because I think if you're trying to be happy all the time, you'll never feel happy then.
Starting point is 01:38:12 It's kind of like what you were talking about earlier with that singer guy. It's like, it's actually the reverse of what everyone tells you to do. Really? Yeah. Well, I've always been a little contrarian and annoying, so that makes sense. What you're supposed to do is say, I want to be happy. That'll never work. That'll never work.
Starting point is 01:38:28 You're supposed to not talk that way to yourself. You're supposed to not be like, I'll never be happy. No, not I'll never be happy. I don't want to be happy. Oh, I don't want to be happy. And then guess what happens when you kick happy out the house? Guess who comes knocking at the back door and wants to come back in? Oh, hey, happiness.
Starting point is 01:38:41 Where'd you come from? Hey, you can stay if you want to, but I don't need you happiness is like all right i'll stick around yeah okay but if i'm like trying to be like happy come over happy come over they're like dude leave me alone yeah yeah it's like when you set standards for your life like if if this happens i'll be happy then then you'll never because then oh yeah that's kind of like what i was like you set like a goal post for yourself in your life you're like because i was thinking about that kind of like when I was, like, you set, like, a goalpost for yourself in your life. You're like, because I was thinking about that. I was like, when I can, like, fucking get a Toyota Supra, then I'll be, like, happy. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 01:39:11 And you, like, set these things, and then they happen, and then you're like, it's just like that. Or then the Supra pops a tire or something, or the AC is not working right. And you're like, you piece of shit. You were supposed to make me happy. Yeah, totally. And now you're letting me down. Yeah. You weren't the Supra
Starting point is 01:39:25 I thought you were yeah the Supra's like bro a car come off a factory line bro not made for you I can tell like from the little I know of you
Starting point is 01:39:34 that none of that stuff will ever make you happy yeah brother Supra yeah brother no dude I mean it just won't and I'm the same
Starting point is 01:39:41 like no no Ferrari no Lamborghini, whatever. Bring me joy like that. Because it's exactly what you said. It's like, oh, fuck. I got this. Fuck, the Ferrari is out front.
Starting point is 01:39:52 It's going to get scratched. Yeah, yeah. No, you get a jalopy. It surprises you every day when it turns on. You're grateful. Dude, that's a great show. Yeah. But maybe there are people out there that get that Supra.
Starting point is 01:40:04 Yeah. And they're happier happier I don't know Vin Diesel yeah dude Vin man yeah Paul gave him the keys to a Supra
Starting point is 01:40:11 friend of ours dude I yeah oh what was I thinking about fuck oh yeah sorry I didn't get back
Starting point is 01:40:18 but it's it's that thing I was talking about earlier like oh you know five years ago I was like oh it'd be a touring comic that'd be sick and now now i think in my head like oh to do theaters then i'll
Starting point is 01:40:29 be happy you know what i mean that's when i had the thing i'm like oh but i'm like touring now like yes why am i why do i keep moving the goalposts for happiness why can't i just be like but that's that's tough because you you you still want to grow so you to do that. It's like have ambition, but also appreciation. It's like a tough thing to do. It's almost like somebody who's addicted to food. But I have to eat. Yeah. So you have to have those goals.
Starting point is 01:40:55 And to separate is tough. Can desire and peace dance with each other? And not in like a rap battle dance where it's about winning, but like in coordination. I think so because I think if you have the, oh, it's tough, but I think it's ambition, desire. Yeah. That's tough. Because I think a lot of times you, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:41:20 Because if you work in that direction, but then you don't, I think one thing I tend to do is try to force things too early instead of allowing them to evolve naturally, if that makes sense. Yeah. I mean, that's all of us, though, too. It's tough. We're always gripping it a little too tight. You don't seem like you are, which is nice. I know you, so I know.
Starting point is 01:41:44 But people don't seem like you are, which is nice. Oh, thanks. I know you, so I know. But people don't know. Aren't you really lucky, too, that you kind of have him as like a marker? Yeah, it's like each other's ballast. Yeah, like you're out, you're doing the shows, and you can kind of look at him and be like, oh, that went well, and now we'll go on to the next one. Yeah, I guess if you're going alone,
Starting point is 01:42:03 you're like, I think that, yeah, that's a good point. It is easy. if one of us is like a little down on the evening the other one's a little up you're always kind of like you don't even try i think it's just natural that like you balance you balance yeah like it's funny it's not like it's like one of us has like a defined role where it's like i have to be the one who like loves this and i have to be the one who like brings us down here it's like you just naturally are kind of going back and forth and you walk in. I'm like, Oh, he's like really,
Starting point is 01:42:28 I don't know. It's not, it's not, I'm giving it like a, like a conscious thing right now, but it doesn't work like that. Like I'll just walk in. I'm like,
Starting point is 01:42:34 Oh, Chad's super stoked on this. And I'm like, all right, well I'll be a bit more level, but I don't think that my body just automatically does it. And it's like, well,
Starting point is 01:42:40 it's like you're dating almost. Yeah. Yeah. We are dating. He is my, I say he's my professional soulmate. Yeah. Which is nice. It's so nice well, it's like you're dating almost. Yeah. Yeah. We are dating. He is my, I'd say he's my professional soulmate. Yeah. Which is nice.
Starting point is 01:42:46 It's so nice. Where'd you guys meet? We were fucking. And then, uh, we, we met, uh,
Starting point is 01:42:52 we have a couple of stories on him. We say we met at birth. Yeah. When he popped out at hug. Then we met doing a four hose beer bong. And then we really got to be friends doing standup in LA. And we were just kind of kindred spirits. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 01:43:05 It's been great. We've been partners for seven or eight years now. Dude, that's crazy. Do you guys ever fight? Not bad. No, it'll be like annoyances will come to light here and there. Our communication's pretty good. We don't talk about it unless it's really bugging one of us.
Starting point is 01:43:23 And then when we do, we both, I feel like, I'm getting a little emotional. We both talk about it to make it better. Neither one of us is like, oh, I got to hurt this other person. We're always like, by the end of the conversation, we both, I trust him. I know he's not trying to do anything bad to me. He's just telling me how I feel. It's not like Tom and Shiv. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:43:49 It's the opposite. Succession. Succession. Where they're just stabbing each other. I don't have time to watch Succession. I want to watch it. I watched one episode of Succession. It was the greatest thing I ever saw.
Starting point is 01:43:58 And I never watched it again. It's good. It's fucking good. I watched the first episode of this season. I'm a little annoyed because they backslide all all the time the characters will get smarter for an episode and then by the next episode they're dumb again and like at this point it's happened so many times i'm like in real life people do get marginally more intelligent right none of these characters they've got like a little more savvy at like how to like hurt each other but none of them have
Starting point is 01:44:22 gotten like uh gotten holistically more intelligent. It kind of bugs me because it almost doesn't feel realistic at this point. People do slide back into their ways. That's who they are. In terms of jealousies, things like that.
Starting point is 01:44:39 We have our things that always are going to be trying to pull us. Later, Aaron. I guess he didn't like the podcast. He didn't want spoilers on Succession. Dude, I want to ask you, sometimes I was really tired today. I was tired.
Starting point is 01:44:56 For what? Nothing. No, we had some work stuff, but nothing like too crazy. And it's all work stuff I like. But when you're going to go on camera and you're tired, how do you get yourself primed and ready to be entertaining um well i'm lucky but i most of the stuff i do on camera is like i just shoot it myself for youtube so i just set it up during times when i know i have energy so i'm good from 11 to 5
Starting point is 01:45:23 but you're not do you ever ever have to do it where you're dreading it and you're like, but I gotta do the thing? Yeah, yeah. And what will happen is you'll get nothing. So there'll be like a party and we'll be like, hey, we want to shoot this bit at this party. And I'll be like, I'm too tired. I'm like, yeah, but we need this piece for the vlog.
Starting point is 01:45:40 And so it happened the other night. I went out to a party. Went to some really cool club, and I got there, and nothing happened. And my shooter was like, what's going on? And I was like, I got nothing. I just went home.
Starting point is 01:45:55 So I'm a little lucky that way. That's comforting, because we've had those days where when you shoot, you get nothing. And it can be hard on the soul a little bit, because you're like, that was shitty on all fronts yeah i i try that i i don't um i never worry about that i never worry about like a a wasted day of shooting or a wasted couple hours it's just fishing yeah you're just fishing for the right thing totally but i guess it's different when you're acting. You've got to really perform in that 40 minutes you're shooting with Barry. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:46:30 Right? That's like trying to sleep before that. Just get a good night's sleep. Yeah. Fucking go to bed. I try to go to bed at 1030. Yeah. And get out.
Starting point is 01:46:41 What was I going to say? Yeah, I think the worst for me is when it's like, how do you describe it? I don't even know what I'm trying to say right now. Feel it out. Can I throw energy at you? Yeah. I think it's like when you I don't fucking know take your time
Starting point is 01:47:07 take your time brother no rush dude also check out this video my eyes moving while I'm sleeping is this normal my girlfriend says
Starting point is 01:47:15 this is like good REM sleep watch this watch my eyes move do you see them moving oh yeah that means you're getting some good Z's that's what she said she said those are good Z's.
Starting point is 01:47:26 Dude, you're dreaming. Do you have sleep apnea? I think I do. Yeah, I have it too. That's so lame. Fucking worst. I have it too. Do you? Yeah. I tried to make a joke where I said it's lame that you have it and then
Starting point is 01:47:41 you guys were quiet and then I felt really bad so I'm walking it back. It was weird that you said it was lame because you said you had it before that. That's why I thought it's lame that you have it and then you guys were quiet and then I felt really bad so I'm walking it back it was weird that you said it was lame because you said you had it but that's why I thought it was funny and then but then I felt like I actually hurt you and then I felt really bad because no I have it yeah so I'm I'm saying I'm lame too no you said it was lame and I was like yeah it's lame and then you have it so I didn't react I thought I said I had it before you did but then I said it again after I think I mumbled it's lame we'll then you have it, so I didn't react. I thought I said I had it before. You did. But then I said it again after. I think I mumbled it.
Starting point is 01:48:07 It's lame. We'll check the tip. I agree. How did you do the test to find out you have it? Yeah, it's the worst. You got to go sleep there for six hours on your back. Really? And then if you try to move, they fucking come over a speaker and they're like, get on your back. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:48:20 The worst. Did you wear the thing? I don't wear it. Can you fix it with mouth taping? I've tried. Yeah. That sleep is brutal for me. I wake up in the morning and I'm like, my head hurts.
Starting point is 01:48:32 With mouth taping? Yeah, I don't know what's going on. I'm still trying, but... They say you're supposed to just breathe in through your nose and out your nose. Yeah. When you sleep, right? Yeah. Not through your mouth at all.
Starting point is 01:48:41 So I've been trying that. Yeah. Cleans everything out. I think it's okay. I mean, it could be dying. I don't know. But I think it's been fine. Also, you keep the weight've been trying that. Yeah. Cleans everything up. I think it's okay. I mean, it could be dying. I don't know. But I think it's been fine. Also, you keep the weight off.
Starting point is 01:48:48 That helps. Nice. Dude, so should we get into the last part of the pod? We do a beef babe and legend of the week. Yes. Yeah. Chad, who's your beef of the week? My beef of the week is not being able to do legs every day.
Starting point is 01:49:01 That's fire. You know, legs. When you do legs legs it's the best feeling you get juiced up you get that tea flowing you feel fired up your core is just ready to rock you just want to go home and bone and then you get sore yeah and i you know i did legs a couple days ago i tried to do them again today i didn't have it in me. Yeah. I was like, I can't do legs the way I want to do legs, and I was pissed off. Wow.
Starting point is 01:49:29 You want to have that post-squat bliss like every day. I want it every day, all day, every day. Dude, you're addicted. Yeah. I'm afraid to squat. I pull my back out. Sometimes I squat, and I feel it in my nuts, and I'm like, am I doing something in my nuts?
Starting point is 01:49:45 You know what? Squatting does get you horny. Does it? Yeah, it boosts your T. It boosts your T, yeah. For sure. You get that grundle going. Do you think if you did a little less legs on your leg day,
Starting point is 01:49:58 you could spread it out over all the days? That's not how I live, baby. You're maxing out. Yeah, I got to max out. That's huge. That's so tough, dude. When's not how I live, baby. You're maxing out. Yeah, I gotta max out. That's huge. When's the next leg day? That's so tough, dude. When's the next leg day? Tomorrow, if I can do it.
Starting point is 01:50:10 Bro. Are you walking around like a little sore today? Do you have some DOMS? That's the thing. I'm not even that sore. You know, I just feel kind of light in the legs.
Starting point is 01:50:17 You know that feeling? I did legs yesterday. Yeah? And dude, I did some squats and it was like the brain afterwards, bro. It's the best. Yeah. Not like head, but your brain, dude. What did some squats and it was like the brain afterwards, bro. It's the best. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:25 Not like head, but your brain, dude. What did it do to your brain? It felt good. Yeah? It's the best feeling I know in the world. Shit, really? Doing some heavy squats and the way your brain feels afterwards. I didn't know this because I don't do that.
Starting point is 01:50:37 Oh, dude. I run, I hike. No, no. But I don't do. What are you squatting? How much weight do you put up there? Not a lot. I don't squat
Starting point is 01:50:45 much um i'll do like you know we do like 350 375 yeah four bills you're not touching four bills anymore are you no i am um you go all the way down although i touch the floor ass to grass that's the grass i do kettlebells um but i've been getting more into it lately because i used to like do sprints a lot but i just got kind of bored with it but you're dead lift that's your premier lift are you still hitting quadruple digits yeah like four thousand pounds yeah yeah what about chest day um chest day is cool but not the same not the same dude i don't want to have a big chest because that's like breasts to me so i skip chest day every day you do you never do anything no i have like the most flat chest but everything else is like boldest and strong right i think pecs
Starting point is 01:51:39 are kind of inherently feminine like why am i trying to get my pecs bigger so my baby can suck along my nipple like what and honestly like not even to be like hardcore about it but like in terms of functionality the chest doesn't do much it looks nice though it looks good but like yeah if a car is stuck on top of me i might need some chest to press it off yeah but i don't walk on freeways so for me it's all about the back the shoulders the ass yeah i i don't i don't do like a lot of weight at all i work out with like 35 pounds 40 pounds that's it bro yeah that's kind of how i am yeah even though i was saying four bills i just want to pop anything
Starting point is 01:52:17 yeah i uh i like to do a lot of reps yeah me too yeah yeah you have to come up with a beef now shit my i have to come up with a beef yes oh fuck i got anything sorry man you go my beef of the week is trash do you know how much trash we throw away yeah i didn't know until i moved in with someone and started monitoring that and taking the trash cans out on sundays bro most weeks we don't even have room yeah in our recycling trash can for all the boxes we get we live in a box economy that's what's happened to america now it's just boxes of cardboard we spent half our lives getting boxes slicing boxes folding boxes keeping some boxes in the garage until we can get rid of the other boxes like what happened we didn't always just have boxes coming to our houses all the time and i'm done with it i don't want any more trash i don't want any more boxes
Starting point is 01:53:21 but i don't see the alternative this whole world runs on trash now maybe it's gonna be ai drones they're gonna have it in a claw you know like the claw like that toy machine yeah it's gonna be in a claw now i hope so so you're upset with the amount of trash you produce. Yeah. I hate the amount of trash I produce. I just throw stuff away. It is a lot. It is scary. And then it just keeps coming. And it just keeps coming.
Starting point is 01:53:51 But really, it's a two pronger. And the prong that really has been getting my spine out of alignment is the cardboard. Right. Well, that gets recycled so you're saying the act of breaking it down is a problem so there's no issue in all the boxes really like environmentally if you're putting it in the trash you shouldn't if you're putting in the blue but i just think it's a bubble and it's gonna burst like to me the whole economy runs on sending people boxes having them send it to recycling and then making more boxes oh yeah like amazon yeah yeah and like is that a good economy the
Starting point is 01:54:31 box economy this is like a very half-baked notion that i'm i wouldn't even say half-baked i put it at five percent cooked i mean i think i think that yeah i think it could be a problem down the road. Look, I've just been telling my girlfriend we need less boxes at the house. Every time I come home, we got more boxes. Dude, have you been to my place lately? You got a lot of boxes? The whole fucking hallway is just boxes.
Starting point is 01:54:58 Look, really my beef is with women. Why do they like boxes so much? What's with all the boxes? Lots of boxes. I don't i don't even think we need more stuff it seems like we got everything we need and then every time i come home there's more boxes no because your your your girlfriend or wife needs to constantly be improving the house that's that's what they're good at no she does an amazing job i moved in with her because her home is beautiful and so well manicured and designed
Starting point is 01:55:25 and detailed yeah when does it stop when it when it never ends that's just part of like the biology yeah and i never really thought about it that way it never ends i i can't believe like how bad i am at like doing stuff around the house when i get back tonight, when I rush home to see her after this, can't wait to see her. I know when I get to that front door, there's going to be two boxes sitting there. And there was two boxes there this morning and two boxes this afternoon. Yeah. And it's all stuff I guess we need, but do we need
Starting point is 01:55:56 it? Well, yeah, but you have a family coming. You're going to get a lot of boxes. Oh, yeah. It's going to be like triple the boxes. Yeah. It is, that is a is a tough thumb well then we need two recycling cans well you'll have to call the city and order a second one for 125 and that'll come in a box i know and you'll have to get rid of that box yeah so we need to get another box for the boxes yeah it that is tough when you look at your trash and you're like fuck man what are we doing like where's this going yeah what like what how are
Starting point is 01:56:33 we existing okay this is going to be going on for a while now are we not full on trash yet it's crazy i'm producing enough trash for like i think like a 50 person village yeah and that's just me it's crazy so what's the whole block doing? Yeah. I don't know. I don't have an answer for that one. Where does it go? I had skin cancer a couple weeks ago. You did? Is that your beef?
Starting point is 01:56:51 Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. I felt my, I just felt my scar. That's why I said that. I was trying to think of my beef. What's your beef? Was that skin cancer?
Starting point is 01:56:59 That's a good one. Fuck skin cancer. Dude. Yeah. That's scary. I'm fine. I'm fine. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:03 Was it from too much sun? Yeah. I had like a, I had like a thing like right here oh it looks pretty cool and it was like it kind of monastitized whatever and they would like change was it melanoma it was not melanoma so i went in and they go um she looks at it and she goes oh yeah that's definitely something and i was like oh fuck i'm done yeah and then she comes out comes out and she goes, she tests it. She goes, oh. She goes, good news. She's like, it's fine.
Starting point is 01:57:30 She's like, I'm going to cut it out and you'll be good. And I was like, really? Yeah. She's like, yeah, no problem. I go, oh, well. And I go, thank God it's not skin cancer. She goes, no, no, no, no, it is. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:40 She goes, it's skin cancer. And she's like, skin cancer's good. Like that. And I was like, what? So apparently skin cancer is good she's like, skin cancer's good. Like that. And I was like, what? So apparently skin cancer is good, but a melanoma is bad. Should they have a different word for it? Yeah. That's what I was thinking.
Starting point is 01:57:53 I understand if the cells are somewhat comparable, but obviously they're different enough where one kills you and one just can get taken out. Why don't we just call it something else? Yeah. I don't know. So yeah. Because blemish when it's scarce enough to keep us out of the sun, I guess.
Starting point is 01:58:07 Because what? Maybe they're trying to scare you straight. Because they're like, if they called it a blemish, you'd go back out into the sun. You'd be like, yeah, just chop it all out. Yeah, or maybe they want you to be able to get sympathy with your friends. So now I can sit here and tell you guys
Starting point is 01:58:19 that I got skin cancer. Yeah, you can wear the thing and do the run. Yeah, do the run. They do runs. Did you guys sponsor me yeah so then i said like yeah we'll cut it out in a month and i didn't really think about it she's like it'll be no big deal and i was like oh cool no big deal then i went in there and and they fucking cut they cut you yeah they got deep huh yeah you could see my bone
Starting point is 01:58:40 yeah yeah yeah was that a little scary yeah it was super scary and i also like i wasn't looking at it but i was just looking at my fiance and so she'd be like it's fine it's fine and then you know you see her face she's like like that you're like what what what what she's like it's okay you're you're good you're good yeah and they just numbed you locally yeah they locally numb you so you don't feel it they did a good job but yeah i'm that's my beef fucking skin cancer dude and now and now you're like now you're checking everything you're like oh yeah but you got to get your moles checked i get checked every year you do yeah yeah you got to check them
Starting point is 01:59:14 i remember the the it was a late is a female yeah she's like do you want me to check your dong she said dong and i was like like she's like she watched your tv show she was a fan yeah i was like yeah check it out no i was like yeah i think it's okay but i was like i was like can you get skin cancer on the dom well you guys with the way you go out and fucking tan your balls yeah yeah you got to be careful oh fuck right that's a possibility in, yeah, yeah. You got to be careful. Oh, fuck. Right? That's a possibility. Tanning your asshole every day.
Starting point is 01:59:48 You guys got to be super careful. And not only that, but like your penis is like really sensitive to the sun. It's never been out before. So you guys need to be careful when you're tanning your assholes. Dude. Oh, shit. Fuck, dude. The girl came in.

Right. But I don't like her because she's so young. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:00:47 I don't care if a woman does that. A woman, man, that's fine. Women do a great job. Just as good as a man. Whatever. So then I go, I was freaking out. I go, you're great. I go, you're just so young and pretty.
Starting point is 02:00:59 I said that. And then my fiance said, what are you saying? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because you wanted to give her a compliment. Yes. To make up for maybe having, you wanted to give her a compliment. Yes. To make up for maybe having.
Starting point is 02:01:07 Maybe being a misogynist. Right. Which I wasn't. Yeah. I've overdone it like that, too. Like, I did the same thing. Yeah. Where the person was too young.
Starting point is 02:01:16 And I was like, dude, you're beautiful. You got huge cans. No, your hands look like they'll be feeling great on my body. I was like like get in here it's just that you're a hot piece of ass you're smoking hot piece i do find that now that i have a fiance or girlfriend like i do find that i won't say that anymore yeah or even if i even if someone walks by like oh you look great or whatever like i i i save those no i holster a lot of that i feel weird about saying no me too me too i don't want them to feel like uh it feels

I was like, I'm not going to look at that. I have no interest in that.
Starting point is 02:02:18 You know who else would do that? Not look? Clint Eastwood. Because he doesn't have social media? I just don't think he's the kind of guy who would... I don't think he knows what fucking Instagram is. That's true. He's like 100.
Starting point is 02:02:31 Have you ever DM Clint Eastwood? I have. What do you want? I'm like, Clint, should I be complimenting these ladies who aren't my girlfriend? He's like, I've never complimented a woman in my entire life. And I was like, that's right, Clint. It's so cool when people don't have Instagram. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:02:49 I mean, sometimes I dream about it, but it's our job, right? We've got to be on there. I guess. Now it's everybody's job. It's like 12 billion people on there. Chad, who's your babe of the week? Dude, my babe of the week is Ponzu Sauce. Put that on anything dude the tang is out of this world ponzu sauce i'm gonna put this out there yeah i think all restaurants that serve soy sauce
Starting point is 02:03:18 should replace it with ponzu now if you had ponzu in front of me and you had soy in front of me i would have a difficult time you won't be able to tell the taste though ponzu in front of me and you had soy in front of me i would have a difficult time you won't be able to tell the taste though ponzu is a little tangier though you're right it's tang right yeah and what are you having this with like a chicken or like a sushi like a sushi but yeah i'll throw it in like a chicken i'll be like that's dang what's your favorite kind of sushi um i like i mean i'm kind of a sashimi guy salmon sashimi yellowtail um all that good stuff dude toro toro that's what it is toro sashimi you ever go really high-end sushi uh i've got sugar fish here and there but i've never been to no like high high high end
Starting point is 02:04:00 no you ever done that like i'm gonna do like glowfish kind of thing yeah you should do it if you like fish you guys should go and do it where do you go high end uh i don't know there's places in beverly hills where it's like you know you sit down and they they cook for you wow yeah that's cool there's a place in culver that was on like chef's table yeah that's like it doesn't look like much when you look at it you're like oh it's just like an ordinary hole in the wall but then it's like it's like you can't get alterations to anything they serve it to you like how they make it and then they're kind of like educating you as you go interesting and then afterwards you just hit a fat burger king and probably no ponzu no ponzu
Starting point is 02:04:41 you have to bring your own youzu. You guys have ponzu? It's like going to a French restaurant. I guess if you put salt on your meal at a French restaurant, it's very insulting to the chef. Because you're changing the taste. Yeah. Yeah, you don't want to put ketchup on a nice steak or something. You're insulting the integrity of the meal.
Starting point is 02:05:04 That happens at sushi restaurants in Beverly Hills. They don't give you soy sauce. Really? Yeah, yeah. I went to one. I can't remember the name of the meal. That happens at sushi restaurants in Beverly Hills. They don't give you soy sauce. Really? Yeah, yeah. I went to one. I can't remember. I think it was called Hyde or something like that. Right.

Starting point is 02:06:16 yeah 10 out of 10 I like almond milk in my coffee okay yeah because oat milk separates in the coffee oh
Starting point is 02:06:23 you know I've kind of noticed that yeah I don't like that interesting like that shit yeah and my coffee I'm an oat milk guy but maybe I'll flip it back to the almond um my baby of the week is chocolate chip cookies uh baked from a bakery like a like a like not like from like a store but like you go to the bakery, you buy, and you have one every night. It seems to be that it's perfect because it satiates you. It gives you that feeling

Starting point is 02:08:46 Ten. And then he got a little kiddish, and he was trying to splash water on me to get me to come in the pool. And I was like, hey, that's not the way to incentivize me to get into the pool. If you were trying to convince me to get in the pool, what would you do? He said, I'd splash all your clothes. Whoa. And I was like, so you're still a child.
Starting point is 02:09:01 In some ways, you have very sophisticated thinking. In other ways, you think force is the solution, negotiation. But it was fun. Just fun chatting with young and seeing. Because they're in touch with things. He's like, the bad kids pick on the weird kids. And the bad kids make sure they have a lot of friends so they have more leverage over the weird kids
Starting point is 02:09:29 and I was like that's the rest of life brother but it's good you're clued into that kids are so smart now it's unreal my son has a band they're all 17 and that's like all they do they literally record music and they play that's like all they do. Yeah. Like they,

And I noticed that, too. Like, my son would say that about high school. He'd be like, yeah, everyone's just, like, putting on an act. When he was, like, 14, I was like, oh, yeah. Yeah, he sees through it. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:10:35 That must be really comforting, right? To know that he has that kind of, like, awareness. Yeah, and he has a good head on his shoulders. Yeah, that's nice. Yeah, it's been great. Yeah, and also, I don't fucking see my kids yeah nice and i want to see them okay and there's no court order saying i can't yeah they just literally they're literally too busy right right they're living their own lives yeah that's what's scary and you'll go through that that's kind of my parents did that with us too

And it's also like, I have a son that's like really industrious. And part of me is like, gee, I wish you were like a fuck up, like at home. That is nice.
Starting point is 02:11:57 You know? But he's like, I can't. I'm writing a ballet and we've got to record the next song. He's writing a ballet? Yeah. Yeah. But for high school.

And I'm like, okay, I get it. It's him and his friends and he's in the back house and he's drunk, he's hungover, blah, blah, blah. I thought I had it all figured out. And then I called him and I was like, the song's really good. And I was like, I looked at the lyrics and I'm like, what's it about? You know, just to see if I was right. And then when he told me it was about i was like oh never mind he was like oh

You're like, geez. Yeah. Yeah. It's really cool.
Starting point is 02:13:51 That's really, really fun to watch. Chat. What's your quote of the week? Just the last thing. My quote of the week. I go, gotta go with Darth Vader again.
Starting point is 02:13:59 Have you come to destroy me? Obi-Wan. I forget what Obi-Wan says says then you will die damn you like star wars yeah i get i have my moments where i i'm a big star wars fan all my moments like every year or so i'll get super into it and i'll watch like star wars fan fiction on youtube it's it's so entertaining they're like this is what darth Darth Vader was doing on this day, and this is what it's like in Darth Vader's suit. And it's like, I don't know.
Starting point is 02:14:32 I just love that. My algorithm is set to George Lucas right now. Oh, is it really? Yeah. Dude, this is getting George. You big Star Wars guy? No, but I think the phone listens. I think the phone heard me watching the Jurassic Park movie.
Starting point is 02:14:43 It knows. Everything I talk about it feeds me. Now I'm getting Jurassic me watching the Jurassic Park movie. It knows. Everything I talk about feeds me. Now I'm getting Jurassic Park and George Lucas. Nice. It's crazy. It's insane. They got a grip on exactly who we are. And they can feed our worst impulses at any moment because they know it'll drag us for hours into their little vortex.
Starting point is 02:15:00 One time, a few years ago, I was talking to my friend. And I was complaining about my algorithm. I was was, like, I was complaining about my algorithm. I was, like, damn, like, Instagram, man, my homepage is all big tits. Like, what's Instagram doing? He was, like, you did that. Right. Like, you? Yeah, like that you were surprised.
Starting point is 02:15:16 You're, like, Instagram keeps sending me big jugs. Who does it think this is for? Like, I didn't understand what an algorithm was. Right, right. Did you think before then that you weren't into big boobs like were you surprised to learn you're a big boob guy i know i'm into big boobs but i just thought i feel like you didn't know and then you saw the boobs and you were like wait there was like an aha moment we're like ah i i like big boobs no i always knew i was into big
Starting point is 02:15:43 boobs but but i just thought Instagram was just this fucking crazy place that was just doing big boobs. And he was like, no, that's just your homepage. Right, if you were into cats, it would all be cats. I was like, oh. My quote of the week is a comment on a scene from The Wire on YouTube. What hurts so bad is Marlo wanted Prop Joe to give up the man running security on the Stash Omar hit.
Starting point is 02:16:05 Joe says he's my nephew. I can't give him up like that. So to appease Marlo, he introduces him to Vondos. Only for his nephew to give him up and Marlo to cut him out. I know everyone watching this knows this already. It just always hits me so hard. Wow. Damn.
Starting point is 02:16:20 The Wire. The Wire on YouTube is one of the best ways to recap a show that you liked. Yeah. Good community on there. Yeah. Did you watch it a long time ago? I just rewatched a lot of it, but I watched it for the first time like 15 years ago. Right.
Starting point is 02:16:33 About that. Yeah, 15 years ago. Holy shit, man. Damn. Holy shit. Sopranos. I like The Sopranos more. I think that's the best show ever, but The Wire is amazing in its own ways, too.
Starting point is 02:16:47 But your best show ever, drama? I think Sopranos for me, too. Sopranos, yeah, me too. Also, I really love Mad Men. It's a beautiful show. Yeah. It's beautiful. The writing's so good.
Starting point is 02:16:57 Damn. It's probably a little closer. Mad Men and Sopranos are a little closer to each other than... Same writer. Yeah, Matthew Weiner. Yeah. Well, he wrote for Sopranos. Yeah, he's in there a little bit, too.
Starting point is 02:17:06 He plays a newscaster. He reports on the mob. I like re-watching and seeing him do that. John Slattery. Amazing. So good. Coolest guy in the world. Coolest guy.
Starting point is 02:17:15 The guy that plays Pete. Yeah, Vincent's catharsiser or something. Yeah, what happened to him? I don't know. I think he's just Pete forever. He got peated. Damn, that's a good show. What's your quote of the week?
Starting point is 02:17:25 Quote of the week. Let's see. See, I heard a quote today. Oh, all... What is it? Fuck. Something like... I can't think of the word,
Starting point is 02:17:43 but it's, you know, when any, uh, fuck, I gotta think of another quote. Was it one word? No, it was something like, it was something like this.
Starting point is 02:17:56 It was like, when you're, if, if you're like beholden to somebody, it all, it always leads to misery. That was a quote I read the other day, which I thought was really interesting. It's true.
Starting point is 02:18:07 But I'm not saying it right. I really blew it, guys. Well, we didn't prepare you at all. We can't go out on that. Let's see. Oh, I read a good quote. No bad art. I read that the other day, which I thought was interesting. I've been painting a lot. Oh, cool. You got a style? Not yet.
Starting point is 02:18:24 I think I have to do like five i had i've done like four paintings so far and i realized i was like i gotta do like 5 000 paintings to get somewhere have you guys ever been to an art museum and seen like an all-white canvas and it's in there and then that's it or just like a painting that's just like one like yeah rodko yeah yeah his and they're like it's the depth of the red that makes it powerful i'm like okay yeah i'm always baffled at art you ever see the price of everything on hbo it's really good it's a doc that explains art and why and how and why things are worth money and why things aren't it's really good really good doc check that out i mean i love modern art it's my favorite but some of it doesn't pass the sniff why things are worth money and why things aren't. It's really good. Really good doc.
Starting point is 02:19:05 Check that out. I mean, I love modern art. It's my favorite, but some of it doesn't pass the sniff test, but then the stuff that does, it's like, cause it's always smart ideas behind it. Like the guy who did just the white canvas,
Starting point is 02:19:14 he really thought that out. He has a whole philosophy behind it and it's commenting on like industrialism and like commerce and all this other shit. But, but there's just not enough skill there for me. But then like you get someone like Picasso where it's it's the idea and the skill yep and then you're like okay this is like changing the way my brain works i i love it do you like banksy i do i love banks i think he's a genius pretty interesting yeah because to do it in the real world too
Starting point is 02:19:39 to put beauty in like these unlikely places yeah and then to be like commenting on society but to also have it look cool yeah and then the anonymity portion of it it all combines and i'm like that's do you remember exit it's like my favorite documentary so you remember that mr brainwash sure i've seen him around sometimes we went to his he had a show in beverly hills he had a big ass show like he they took over the radio and tv museum i mean it was like three floors of mr brainwash wow and i and i was in there and we just went to go see it, to like Snapchat or whatever. And then he pops out, and he's like, oh, hello. He's like, I'm Mr. Brainwash.
Starting point is 02:20:11 And he was the nicest guy you'll ever meet. And he was just like, and I thought it was so interesting in that movie, he was like the butt of the joke. He's dumb in the movie, but he might have been playing a part. Oh. Well, because the whole movie, you don't know what's real, what's not. Oh, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait. You're don't know what's real, what's not. Oh, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 02:20:26 You're blowing my mind. So, wait. He's part of the movie? I think you can. You didn't prank him? I think you can watch that movie and believe it's all an elaborate prank by Banksy on that guy and that it's all been coordinated. But I kind of think that whole movie was like scripted start to finish and everyone was kind of in on it. I think that's what's cool about that movie is you can't trust anything you're seeing.
Starting point is 02:20:45 Oh, I never thought of it like it. I think that's what's cool about that movie is you can't trust anything you're seeing. Oh, I never thought of it like that. I think so. Because in the movie, Banksy sets out to find somebody who makes terrible art and make them famous. And so he finds this guy, Mr. Brainwash, who's a real guy who makes pop art. And like, you know, I like the art. I think it's cool. Yeah. You know, but it's very like, it'll be like Darth Vader taking a piss.
Starting point is 02:21:07 It's very easy. Yeah. It's like first thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But some of it. But it's not that different from the other stuff. I think that was like the commentary of it. Is that different than Banksy?
Starting point is 02:21:17 Yeah. It's not that different than what any of those kind of street artists were doing. I see. And that you can easily trick even like the intelligentsia into believing it's good if enough people say it's good. It's all just like the power of like consensus. So I thought that was so interesting that like this guy was the butt of the joke in the movie, but his art eventually broke through and he had this giant exhibit in Beverly Hills
Starting point is 02:21:38 where he was making so much money and like, you know what I mean? Yeah. Well, and now he's like an established figure. 20 years ago. Yeah. That's insane. I love that movie. I think we actually watched it in the writer's room for our show.
Starting point is 02:21:49 You did? Because we wanted to prank Disneyland. Oh, right, right, right. Because they actually got away with it. He put a Guantanamo guy who had been like, you know, was like kind of in the detainment clothes and had his head covered, like, I don't know, like alluding to waterboarding or something like that. And they put it like next to the Matterhorn, which is so like interesting.
Starting point is 02:22:11 Banksy did that? In the movie he does it, but I don't even know if that was, we don't know if it was Banksy. We don't know who Banksy is. Right. That might've been a guy playing Banksy who talked to Banksy. There's a picture of Banksy online. Is there?
Starting point is 02:22:23 Supposedly. That's so disappointing. How do you know that's Banksy? We don't know. We don't know. Honestly. I love talking to you about this shit. You could be Banksy.
Starting point is 02:22:33 I could. You could be Banksy. I'm Banksy. You could be an AI robot. What if we waited? This is like episode 300. What if we waited till now to reveal that we're Banksy? Man, you should have used it on the Netflix show if you were.
Starting point is 02:22:49 We're Banksy. That's what we told them. We're like, bring back season two. We'll tell them we're Banksy. Yeah, we should do that. Are we going to see season two? If we do better numbers in Bangladesh. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:22:59 Do you have any? Netflix is crazy, huh? No, it didn't. They don't give you numbers. They don't give you anything. They gave us the numbers. Oh, they did? Yeah. I thought they don't give you numbers They don't give you anything They gave us the numbers Oh they did Yeah
Starting point is 02:23:06 I thought they don't give numbers No they were pretty transparent about it We just More people needed to watch it You get 10 days And 28 days Those are your numbers You get 10 days
Starting point is 02:23:15 Your numbers at 10 days And your numbers at 28 days And oh they do I thought they didn't share that shit They do Yeah But you know I genuinely think it's a gift
Starting point is 02:23:23 I think we'll come up with Something different and new And like I think We need to keep evolving like the lingo needs to change the problems need to change i think it's um it's like uh of course you want them to give you a second season because it's like yeah great they want more of it but it just forces you to rethink stuff and to push harder so yeah um i think it'll only make us better for sure that's the only choice yeah not that I'm desiring it and then maybe a movie so we're working
Starting point is 02:23:48 we're working on one right now like a movie would be fun yeah you know we're working on a bunch we're trying yeah you write every day
Starting point is 02:23:54 um no work on something every day but yeah I used to write stand up every day but it's tough
Starting point is 02:24:02 it's tough to write movies and stand up I found too with stand up you might come up with ideas if you write every day. It's tough. It's tough to write movies and stand-up. I found, too, with stand-up, you might come up with ideas if you write every day. Everyone's different, but for me, I think it'll hit you and be like, oh, that's a good idea, and write down.
Starting point is 02:24:14 That's like Eminem writes all the time, but he never uses anything he writes. He just writes to keep the muscle working, but then he goes into the studio and he's like, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. He's just keeping his brain active. That's cool. You're like Eminem.
Starting point is 02:24:27 I saw Seinfeld the other day. He was like, he was just basically saying, I don't know why a stand-up does anything with stand-up. Stand-up shouldn't do a podcast. Stand-up shouldn't write a movie. I agree with him. He's right. He's 100% right.
Starting point is 02:24:41 But he also has like bajillions of dollars. That's true. I'm trying to keep this train moving Good point The moment demands content I love you Jaddy He's a good guy Should we call it? Thank you so much for coming in
