Starting point is 00:00:00 the the the the the the the the
Starting point is 00:00:17 the the the the the So are you is that a throwback to one of your old flubs? I did a wash up. Yeah, that's one of the ways that he likes to say what's up when he's feeling a little silly, says wash up. But people people laugh about it, but I think it's kind of cool. Now, I like. Yeah, Mr. Cash out.
Starting point is 00:00:38 That's an insult to me. Oh, because I that's a mistake where I would cash out my my before I should have earnings you cash out You're supposed to hodl it h o d l hold Okay, not me not me. I hold on to it. I would never cash it out. We do have a great guest this week, too Todd glass, what's up Todd? How you doing Brian? I'm great. I actually don't have crypto But I can tell you that I did have crypto. So that's that's just it. We're a little professional now, Todd. We didn't used to be, but we we discuss different guys on every episode. Now in our professionalism, we'd like to ask,
Starting point is 00:01:17 what is your what do you have? Have you ever dealt with crypto ever? Do you have any... Have you ever bought crypto? What do you know of crypto? I know probably I represent a fairly big slice of the world with stuff like this. And I want to say what I know about crypto. And I'm not joking around. Like I think it's better for me to go, you know, my safe word, truth. Yeah. Besides absolutely positively knowing the word crypto, I've heard it for years.
Starting point is 00:01:49 You know, you know, I know zero zero. I wish I could say a little bit, but nothing. You just know. Yeah. Like, I mean, I guess I'm the same way. Like, I know that there's stuff called the block chain and stuff. But again, to me, I think I'm pretty much the same, that it's just a bunch of words that I hear that people make fun of a lot,
Starting point is 00:02:08 but I don't really have a good understanding. Well, Brian, are we gonna get a good understanding this way? Probably not, but. Yeah, right, I think it would hurt me to, sometimes if I don't understand something I know, Todd, be patient and listen, you can learn new things. I get it, but sometimes I think I make the executive decision I don't know you try some people try to explain me what uh like uh if oh he makes what's
Starting point is 00:02:33 that called in the digits like when he's uh when somebody makes a certain amount of money what do they call that uh like triple triple digits or yes six digits or yeah I don't know what that means and people explain it to me and then I think I know, I know what it means. And then I forget it in a week. So this is all I can start out here with a little story. Uh, on my old podcast, we were, we were like did anarchist politics and stuff like that and very early on in 2011, a guy gave us a bunch of Bitcoin, like a lot of bitcoins, but they were worth like nothing, like less than a dollar.
Starting point is 00:03:12 So as a goof, we handed them all out to people, like just tipped people with them and stuff on the internet, lost all of it. So then when it got up to that big and it was like, we could, we probably would have been millionaires. No, shut the fuck up. Then you wouldn't shut the fuck up. As you're telling me this, I'm thinking, Oh, am I going to find out like what you gave away? Cause to you, it's like chocolate coins, you know?
Starting point is 00:03:41 Yeah. At the time it feels like that, but yeah, there was a time when Bitcoin went up to immense. People were becoming billionaires. So how many Bitcoins did you have? I think it was like 10 or 15. So yeah, you would have been able to, if you cashed out at the correct time, you would have been able to be a millionaire, definitely. Yeah, there were like $60,000 apiece at the highest point. So we would have, yes, we would have made like a lot of money, but it seems so stupid. It was like computer money and he kept trying. My partner
Starting point is 00:04:11 kept trying to explain it to me. Like it might be worse something someday. I was like, nah, you can't even touch it. What are you going to buy? You can't buy a pizza with it. Yeah. Yeah. What you want to do more about Bitcoin than I do. Uh, do, what's the other one? Crypto. Bitcoin is crypto. Bitcoin is crypto. It's a type of crypto. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:04:38 There's all these words and phrases that I don't really truly understand or like Todd, really want to understand or need to understand I know there's a lot of scams surrounding it. I know people are getting scammed a lot I want to say then when it hit the highest it was I Wouldn't bought a bunch Because I thought like oh my god, it's getting it won't ever stop growing. This is crazy. And then I bought it and then two weeks later I had zero dollars.
Starting point is 00:05:10 You're a classic stock market Rube. You're a classic Rube. I mean, sell high buy low buy buy. You know, I'm glad that my addiction, my addiction or what I've trouble with addiction whatever word you want to use is Is food that's where I have the biggest struggle with food everything else pot drugs. I really am but I I'm just sitting here thinking what if the feeling I had for food I had for gambling because I get it. It's tempting If you have the itch for it fuck I'm bad like
Starting point is 00:05:49 I went to Las Vegas for the first time a few years ago and I got up like five hundred dollars and I quit and I was like I'm fucking done I'm leaving I walked away I went home I came home I sat down. I started targeting my wife and I was like, you know, how we could get some extra money is go to the casino. And now you can't let, I was up so much. I could tell her how much I was up. So we go with our last hundred dollars and we each have 40 bucks and we are leaving the casino six
Starting point is 00:06:25 minutes after we walk in like no but I thought you were gonna tell me that you know I went home and I said to my wife like that's five hundred dollars like that's nothing we could go buy a lot of food for that and why don't we just quit and we won 500. But no, no, I said, I think I got an idea for how we can pay our rent. If you knew Brian, he yeah, he doesn't, he doesn't really have a lot of restraint when it comes to that. And just to be clear as well, I do want to say any Brian, anytime Brian goes anywhere like Vegas or anywhere, he's gambling because he's gambling with, you know, his shorts and or his ability to make it through an entire flight without shut up, destroying the bathroom. He he's famous Todd for, for being wrecking a bathroom on a,
Starting point is 00:07:19 on a flight and also going to change. That's all when I go to LA and his crotch, his crotch got so hot as well on the flight that he ripped out the crotch of his underwear in the bathroom. So what is going on? Is this the truth? No, this is the truth. I was going to Alaska, though. It was like a 10 hour flight. It wasn't like flying like I'm going to L.A. next month. I should be totally fine. Fly in there without ripping the crotch out of my underwear.
Starting point is 00:07:44 But then when I was flying back, I hadn't used the bathroom in seven days and it decided to hit on a 10 hour flight. And then the, the, the stewardess was like, or the flight attendant was like, ah, you look, you look a little flight attendant made him move closer to the bathroom. I'm not joking. Made him move just because of the way he looked. Yes. They're like, you're about to explode.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Yeah. So I went to a few different places to find crypto guys for us to talk about. And this guy says, you talk about Bitcoin like a religion. It scares me. And that's his wife saying that. So it's a quote, you talk about Bitcoin like a religion. It scares me wife. And he goes, well, I pushed my hesitant wife too far. What's next? I won't divorce.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Please be serious. Okay. So he knows that a lot of the replies are going to be like divorce your wife if she doesn't understand crypto. This is a big thing we deal with a lot in the guys universe is that guys who are really obsessed with something they oftentimes will they'll have it out with their wife a little bit who's you know maybe wants to spend a little bit more time with their husband to have him spending less time doing crypto trading.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Maybe there's a deeper problem. Yeah, that's well, I've always felt like it is like the old sitcom dad just doesn't like want to talk to his partner. You know, like that is not like the type of that's like not the type of guy am I never felt that way. I never felt like I needed like a refuge in my house from my wife. You don't need a man cave. You don't need a man cave. No, but I mean, you've in my house from my wife. You don't need a man cave. You don't need a man cave. No but I mean you've seen how I treat my house.
Starting point is 00:09:29 I don't think it'd be argued to be one. Wait sorry you are you pro man cave or against me. You know what look I feel like everything I do doesn't have to make somebody like I'm always saying what you're doing is wrong and then I'm go is that the person I am. So let's just put it this way. Would I have a room that was had all the things of that? Like whatever, you know, a fun room. But yeah, I would never divide it up as, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:55 a place to get away from. It just seems like it's from a lot of the, I don't know. You know what I mean? They're gonna get away from my wife. Well, maybe she just get a divorce. And you go, well, once in a while, when you're in a happy relationship, it would sound weird to go, no, I'm happy.
Starting point is 00:10:12 But yeah, of course, once in a while, you gotta take trips. You gotta do things alone. And if you have the room, you can go to another room. But I don't need a room designated. Yeah, you know. She's not allowed in this room. You know, we've got a special lock on here that the ladies can't get into. Yeah, we don't need a room designated. Yeah, you know, she's not allowed in this room. You know, we got a special lock on here that the ladies can't get in. Yeah, we don't need it.
Starting point is 00:10:29 We don't know. We don't need any boards. The room is a little dirty, you know, because nobody's cleaning the thing up. You know what I mean? It's just for fun, you know, without the girls. By the way, I wouldn't if I was going to get a man cave, wouldn't obviously I wouldn't be married to a woman. Now, you know, because because of my situation. But I mean, you wouldn't even think about it with any significant other, hopefully.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Yeah, that's that's the way I've thought about it a lot, too. It's just like most of these things we cover, you know, like guitars or bourbon or stuff like that. It's not like, this one is a little different because I really don't think it should involve that much of your time. It is going and buying something and then watching it go up and down. Like I don't-
Starting point is 00:11:21 That's what they're doing, Brian. They're sitting there all becoming obsessed with it because it has such an impact on their life, right? Like if it goes up, they could become rich. If it goes down, they could lose everything. So they'll just sit there watching it all day, you know, just like obsessively, I feel like. Here's what I recommend. Okay, for you people listening, I'm Todd Glass. But I think they need to be in... I wanna give bad advice that they don't wanna do for some reason.
Starting point is 00:11:49 That's what makes me say things like, not that it's bad, it's just not, it's too hard. You go, you guys, I'm gonna tell you what you need and then that's it, okay? You really wanna know or do you wanna... Yeah, yeah. Those guys, they need to be in therapy twice a week for two hours each session to really get
Starting point is 00:12:08 because an hour goes by quick. You leave angry two hours twice a week, three weeks in a row. Then you'll fucking know whether this is over. Anyway, I mean, I feel like honestly, these people who are involved in crypto, though, it's completely different than the stuff we've covered before, because it is their money. Yes. Like we've talked about stuff where they're losing money and you're spending too much money on guitars or Pappy Van Winkle or whatever, but this is their money. So I mean, I can see this causing marital spats that we've never seen.
Starting point is 00:12:45 I used to talk about it a lot on my old show, but I don't think I've ever brought this up. My main anxiety, the main manifestation of my anxiety is that if I start to get anxious, I check my bank account sometimes nine, 10 times a day. I just keep opening it up and looking at it and being like, oh no, oh no, there went another $50 or something like that. Like it's kind of- And that's your therapist, told you to do that or?
Starting point is 00:13:12 He told me to please stop checking your bank account. And that was when I had less money at the time. I gotta bear my soul here because that's very interesting that you say that. I've never heard anybody like, hey, Mr. Rogers said if it's mentionable it's manageable even on little things. But this is this is one of them because I have checked my bank account like that in the past when I was thinking oh shit did this check clear and you know and so I know that feeling too but I also which I think this is more,
Starting point is 00:13:45 I do it now for no reason. Even if I'm not waiting for it. I go, I look at the amount that's, I have two, like I divide it up and I look at it. And sometimes you're right, I'll look at it like for no reason, maybe 10 times a day. Yeah. I never look at mine personally right now.
Starting point is 00:14:02 I got a baby on the way. I live in Vancouver, one of the most expensive places in the world. And I'm currently at the state of not looking, you know, just keeping out of sight out of mine. I couldn't do it, Chris. If my wife understands that when we purchase something, anything, if we spend $100, I'm going, she's going to ring it up at the cash register while I stand further up and check my bank account while it's going on. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Everything looks normal. All right. And she, she also, she's like, I can't buy presents for you with our bank card, with our joint bank account, because you're always checking it. And like, it's just a part part of of kind of being me. That's why I did buy Ethereum, which is one of the crypto coins and I held on because they said it was the woke one, which by the way, I don't know. They just bought one because it was whoa. No, that it's the one that's less bad for the environment, which I don't even think I believe
Starting point is 00:15:10 at this point, you know, but I bought it anyway and I was getting so bad that I started checking it all the time and I just like was like, what if I just bet on sports instead, at least like there's like a way to research and win. Yeah. And you get to watch sports as well, which like, and it makes the games entertaining. It's like you, you're cheering for one team and you have steak in it and whatever. So, yeah, there's something to be said for sports gambling over just straight up gambling. Gambling. Well, I found this guy and he goes, one of the guys advice goes, talk less about Bitcoin. And the next person says, and there's the point, you got to have other things in life, passions other than Bitcoin, right? The guy responds, the original poster response, he goes, not really. Nobody golf
Starting point is 00:15:50 or woodworking. Yes, they do, man. That's the whole premise of our of our whole podcast. Again, is it is it's oh, it's okay to be a lot of guys, you don't want to just be one guy, you don't want to just be a bourbon guy or just be a golf guy or whatever. Because then exactly like this, you become too obsessed with it. And then you're talking about it too much and you become insufferable to everybody. That seems like what the thing that's happened with a lot of these people is that like when you start reading the effects that this has on their family, it is financial largely,
Starting point is 00:16:24 but some of these guys have the money to throw around and it's kind of not as big of a deal for them. But all of them seem to have a problem where everybody in their life is like, you talk about Bitcoin too much, like way too much. It's all you talk about. And I think that's the negative. Like if you have the money, fine, whatever.
Starting point is 00:16:44 You're just gonna lose the money anyway. It's a big scam. I think I guess that's true. Like the people online when you see those people posting about it, like those crypto accounts or whatever, it is just like nonstop. It is really has become this like way of life kind of that their their whole identity and that is just a horrible identity to have I mean it reminds me of those you know the guys who are just money people or whatever and all they care about is money those people are awful to talk to usually you know my um I have a friend that uh you know it's so funny I say friend that I want to go it's a my friend's husband so like so I don't want to be judged you the of course. And and and so but what those people get good at, they can take anything you say to golf with. Yeah, they're good at it. They're like, oh, yeah. And then the way you have and then someone walks over and they're like, oh, my God, you're talking about golf. They go,
Starting point is 00:17:58 they brought it up. No. Somebody is talking about being gay. I was out at the club last night and he's like, Oh yeah, the golf club for four hours. I heard somebody say golf club. I swear to God I did. I have a golf story, but only if I heard the word golf club. Here's an issue from one of the people that's giving advice. I can listen to him extol the virtues of Bitcoin all day. Try feigning interest in whatever boring thing your wife is into. Oh, yeah. Well, these are Bitcoin guys, Todd.
Starting point is 00:18:39 And this is a big thing as well is whatever there's a thing on the message board that's like, hey, my wife's upset with all the time and money. I'm spending on this They're all like why don't you bring up all the shoes she buys or all that you know like they're all reality shows They watch is another just like old-school misogyny from like 1980s stand Funny it's like I remember once there there was I think you'll relate with this that they did it even when it didn't exist There was a husband and wife singing group like from from like the 70s the 80s it was a husband and a wife and they were famous and
Starting point is 00:19:15 When when the when the when the wife took a break like they would sing some songs together and then she would go off The stage he goes. I get nervous when I don't see her. I'm gonna call it's gonna cost me You guys are in a singing group. It's a 50% her fucking Called the name of you and your wife she if anybody earns her keep it's not fucking her you're caught and then But but he still wants to make that joke like a And then, but he still wants to make that joke like, hey, I'm supporting her. Yeah. It's so funny because the Bitcoin people, I think,
Starting point is 00:19:50 don't really talk to the women in their life very much. Because it is every time they're like, why don't you tell her to go back to watching The Bachelor? And it's like, it's kind of like guitar. Because we're talking about a time suck more than we're talking about. Like, because with guitars, it's like you keep spending our money on guitars.
Starting point is 00:20:11 And like, I can't get you to stop spending money on our guitars. For these people, it seems like their partners in life are saying like, I would like to talk to you about non-Bitcoin or money related stuff sometimes and maybe just like the stuff we used to talk about before we learned about Bitcoin. One of the many like aspects of life and just like living in general, you know, we can talk about that food or whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:38 I just realized something. Are these people that I'm I guess making fun of? I don't know. Yeah, they're fine to make fun of. They're not going to find me and beat me up, are they? Oh, no, they can't beat you. These are small guys, Todd. These are not a fighter. I'm not. I'm not.
Starting point is 00:20:54 I don't fight. So if you're coming after me, it's unfair because I don't even all I do is duck and cover. And it's so easy to get my feelings hurt, too. That's the real problem with me as I do this show and then somebody says one thing I'm like why you got hurt by why you gotta be so mean to me no you don't I I feel that way sometimes and then I don't realize how gruff I come across so I'm like oh come on I'm in the you know I don't go after people's physicality ever ever so in you
Starting point is 00:21:22 know I'm sort of like have that as a baseline. But anyway, back to this. Well, I'll say this about Todd, is like, cause we've had that come up with the show a few times where like, like I said, we did guitar guys, we did another one. We've done a few recently where a lot of the people that listened to the show, we just did roller coaster guys. And those guys have been messaging me all week saying like, Oh my God, it was so funny.
Starting point is 00:21:47 You got us exactly right. Like they worry about it. They worry about it until they re they also realize that like we're not taught. We're talking about the 1% of these people where this is all they do instead of like 99% of people. Why I don't think it's the same with crypto. Let's say 50% of people just have it and they don't say anything about it, um, which is interesting because that's another thing we've,
Starting point is 00:22:13 I've learned about and it's called, they call it wife changing money. And what that means is, yeah, I got a butt in. I'm not not even joking I have to pee so bad. Oh pee then I just I'm gonna do it then I'm gonna come right back Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, that's well. I'm gone. Don't say anything cuz my nephew listens to any podcast I won't say word negative. We'll sit in silence. I'm covering it. I'm as long as it's not about me. I'm writing it down. Where the fuck is my writing?
Starting point is 00:22:52 Damn it. These fucking podcasts. How long is it going to go? These are. Hey, you got to leave this ahead. How long is it going to go? You got to leave this in. OK, you have to. Yeah. OK, I will. I will. I'm going to send. Yeah, I'm going to send you it and see if you can.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Because I told some people I learned how to do sound. OK, who did I have to learn? Why did you lie to him? I did you lie to lie to me? He was one really nice guy and he was like, I can do it. I'm like, I want to learn it all by myself. So what is it? What is it that they were saying?
Starting point is 00:23:36 Just mixing it down so it sounds professional instead of, I guess, loud, annoying. Well, that could be done with me. I could do that, Simba. You won't let me do it, but I could do it very, very easily. Just to be clear though, the sound quality that we're working with, we're only as strong as the guest's microphone as well.
Starting point is 00:23:58 So when we're doing it, we're not doing it in studio with our own equipment. So sometimes that can be a little bit more difficult, but yeah, I guess some of the episodes where the volume is a little bit. Yeah. That's what I worry about. Well, I will do just send them all to me. I can just, I can just compress it.
Starting point is 00:24:15 It was very least and then make it even, you know, and like clean up. Now, if we leave this in, people can be can be like oh, he's trying which is nice I told I think I said he wasn't like saying hire me I said like I want to learn how to do everything because That's just I can teach you how to do it as well like I'm kidding. Okay, want to learn. But anyway, so I decided to look into how they
Starting point is 00:24:57 deal with like their will, or whatever, because crypto can get locked up in a in a thing where nobody can have it, right? I mean, your will like your will, like when you die, yes, you share this is the question. And this is a question that like your will, like when you die. Yes. Do you share? This is the question. And this is a question that you're all, you're both normal people. So you're going to say yes. But they're all saying no.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Do you share your secret key slash seed phrases with your money? Now these are the things that get you access to the Bitcoin. So if I died in a car wreck and nobody knew my secret key or my seed phrase, they wouldn't be able to get to the money. It would be impossible. So you just put that in your will. Some people do Bitcoin or what do you mean? Some people do. Of course you would have to otherwise what happened? What's the alternative? Well, this person says I haven't shared keys or seed phrases with a single person. I have
Starting point is 00:25:46 left instructions for my wife to find if I die. It has all the info she needs. Now where do you think he put the info? Well I'm thinking that he put together some sort of a scavenger hunt type situation where she has to go clue to clue and go location to location until finally she finds it. That would be my dad. Yeah, this guy says my wife, she can find it right now. She even knows it exists. She just doesn't care about crypto at all. She never bothers with it.
Starting point is 00:26:14 I'm not keeping it from her. She just has no interest. And so that's a good one. Right. And then this next guy says she's going to hear a news report about crypto and wipe you out. Oh, yeah. So again, these are guys who are just like going on the assumption that everybody has a bad marriage and that their wife at every opportunity would just leave them if they could take the money. Right. Like what? Why would you think that? I mean, I mean, I share money with my partner.
Starting point is 00:26:45 You know what I mean? Like you share, we share money. People have some people which I understand. I I had it that way. I was in a 13 year relationship and we had we had separate accounts and we both enjoyed it. Yeah, really? I yeah. And I was in the novel accounts that also enjoyed I could see both
Starting point is 00:27:06 Working in different situations. Yeah but you were you were you you were never concerned that your partner was if they found out they had a bunch of money was going to Try to steal it all from no. No. No, I mean he could get into all my accounts. Yeah Yeah, yeah No, there was it was just you know And then we had an account that we would put money in and for things we wanted to do, you know, and that was like just this third account, you know, this guy says, if a divorce happens before your death, the plan is kaput. I'm sorry to break it to you harshly, but the likelihood of the former happening before the latter is pretty high.
Starting point is 00:27:38 So our guy responds and goes, uh, one more marriages succeed than fail. That's not true. I mean, I think that's true. Yeah, and that depends on what you say succeed and fail too, because is it a success if they stay together till they die in a completely loveless situation and sleep in different beds and cheat on each other? So it's more likely I'll die before getting divorced.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Two, how does a divorce room my plans? My crypto doesn't automatically vanish. It still exists right where I left it three We signed a prenuptial agreement. Why would my plan be kaput and then he gets the standard almost 50% of all marriages in the United States will end in divorce or separation and Unless your ex takes it she knows your secret you're You're smart to do it, but not fully protected. So they're just saying, please don't tell your wife about your crypto password so that she could get to it.
Starting point is 00:28:33 Can you imagine her just like, well, what happens if you can I get it? And you're just like, no, no, it's private. I can't. That's like, yeah, that's like, it's your wife. I don't have any. And I would bet I don't have any private things away from my wife, like things that are hidden. I don't really have any stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:28:59 You know, I mean, your your wife is like this nicest, most forget. I mean, she is the best. So she allows you to just do all I mean, she is the best. So she allows you to just do all the ridiculous things out in the open. I mean, like you taught just to me when this guy collects Lego, we talked about before we started, but like, I mean, seriously, like he bought the Titanic Lego recently, which is like the largest, most expensive piece. How much is the Titanic? $725, $725. Oh my God. And you put it together. I did. I put it against down in my living room. It's huge. That took me like a month
Starting point is 00:29:33 and a half, but I don't, I don't like sit down and build all at the same time. Like a lot of times I sit down, I watch wrestling and sit at the table and look at my phone and stuff and then build every now and then. I think I probably could have got it done in a week if I wasn't screwing around doing other stuff. Are you happy with the build? Is it worth it, do you think? No, I wouldn't buy that one again if I...
Starting point is 00:30:01 What was the issue? I learned a lot about this stuff, Todd, because I researched for the Lego guys episode. So was the, like the, was the construction, like, was the build itself or like the finished product? What is it that you have? This product's cool. It's just a really repetitive bill.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Repetitive bill. I didn't know. And over and over and over. Yeah. This guy says I have, I have left where to find it, but I doubt she even paid attention to me and The guy goes yeah, I told my sister about it and she left midway and then our guy responds and he goes my wife said Sounds good. I went back to watching a reality TV show. Oh, that sounds like wives The reality TV Todd they love it
Starting point is 00:30:43 You like to do puzzles and I know the puzzle for one person or Legos is something challenging and they enjoy it. For me, it's the opposite of what I don't want to put anything together. I'll tell you this. This is really funny that you bring this up because I was hanging out with my brother for his birthday last week and we were kind of talking about movies and stuff like that. And my brother also likes wrestling and I was like, oh yeah, I really liked that von Eric's movie. The the the fuck was the iron? The iron caught I was like, Oh, I really love the iron claw. I thought it was really good. And my daughter really liked it. And so did my wife, like they cried at
Starting point is 00:31:33 the movie. And we're talking about my brother's like, I will never see that. And I was like, going is like, I don't like movies that make me feel sad. So I don't see any movies that make me feel sad. And he literally will not see a movie. So does he ever get tricked? Does he ever not realize the movie is gonna make him feel sad because I remember I cried in bad boys for life Bad boys movie and I couldn't have known that that was gonna be emotional. So does that ever happen to him? Did you ask no because he won't watch any he he won't watch anything where there's a child in Jeopardy
Starting point is 00:32:02 And he won't watch anything where like he does he likes action movies But you know what like there to be a little the child you can understand if that was one slice of it But movies that make you sad it was sort of reminds me of like what a friend of mine we had this conversation a while back and the conclusion of it was he's a therapist and How to process if you don't know there's some good coming out of it It makes it a little easier if there is and he goes when you're sad that when it hurts like that, you're like, well, there's growth. If you let yourself be sad and let yourself... So if someone doesn't let themselves be sad, it also limits them in their growth. He's like, I don't want to pay to feel bad. And I'm like, well, that's not exactly what... Movies that make you feel sad make you feel other things as well. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:33:02 It's not like you're not just feeling the sadness. There's usually like, you know, even if there's full sadness, there's some sort of like happiness to it or whatever joy and also but like it's good, it's good to feel sad sometimes and get it out in a way that's like, you can get angry as well in a way that's kind of normal and okay. And that's like a good safe area to do it. You know, also, if you go sad, it doesn't have to ruin the night. It can in a way if it if you let it be like maybe it's an appreciation for life. Maybe you see a movie where somebody dies and man you just that's that type of pain especially if you think about it about someone that you love not being here. You know, I get it but um, hold on, uh,
Starting point is 00:33:49 I forgot what I was gonna say. No, it's okay. I do that all the time. Let's uh, Oh, if you can turn if you can go, all right Well, that's that's growth and then you return to the world a little more appreciative like i've had that happen like You're sitting around someone tells a story and they're they go, I'm sorry, I brought everybody down. I go, Hey, you can only be as happy as you can be sad. Like that story. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But yet now we can remind me how happy I am to be alive and you know, to like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. It was, it was just such a, like a thing so far away from, from me where it's like, I'm talking to somebody that I know very well. And I just am like, just no resistance. Like if an action movie has
Starting point is 00:34:32 it like an inciting incident at the beginning of the movie that causes the guy, cause I've always said this to him. I've always said, look, if an action movie is just an action movie without anything bad happening to the guy or his family. He's just a serial killer. Like he's just going out and murdering a bunch of people. Yeah. He needs stakes. He needs like a reason. Yeah, totally. Like so he wouldn't, would he'd watch the beekeeper? He did watch the beekeeper, but he wouldn't watch one of the John Wick movies. The first John Wick movie, it took him a very long time to watch I kept trying to like be like It's not it's two seconds and it's a movie. I can't and it doesn't make any sense
Starting point is 00:35:11 It really doesn't but it's just is what it is I'm sure I have other movies I watch and they are Why don't why doesn't the same thing that I'm about to say apply to all movies that are sad? I will watch a sad movie But I can't watch that doesn't happen as much anymore because you know I'm not at hotels watching TV as much but the Titanic used to come on a lot and I saw Titanic in the theater and I could never watch even a little bit of it even 20 minutes You know because I it just stressed me out knowing the horror that was ahead. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
Starting point is 00:35:39 I never watched that either What I never watched either but but for very bad reasons, because I thought it was a girls movie. I was like 19. Oh, OK. Oh, look, I'm speaking of growth. Look at that growth. Now you're now you're buying a Lego version of it, you know?
Starting point is 00:35:56 Yeah. Here's the here's the question that came up on the on the old are Bitcoin guy goes, is my girlfriend a Bitcoin millionaire or a compulsive liar? Okay. I've been with my girlfriend from Spain for almost two months now. Okay. You don't need to say, well, why are you saying where she's from? Like just bragging, like, I know Spanish women
Starting point is 00:36:22 do tend to be quite beautiful. Is that meant as a brag? Well, and he goes and we had a conversation about finances last night, despite working and living like a broke grad student. She claimed that she had a lot of money in Spain. I asked her if it was inherited money, but I told her she didn't have to answer if she didn't feel comfortable saying she then responded by saying it was money she had saved up while working for
Starting point is 00:36:45 a large company based in Barcelona and subsequently the bar she and her mother owned and operated. I then asked if she was investing her money and she told me she had been investing in Bitcoin since she was 15 years old. So around 2010 and that she started to seriously invest about five years ago. This was when my mind went wild since a few invested dollars could be worth thousands, maybe even millions. I asked her how much she had initially invested and if she had sold anything. She then said that she hadn't sold anything and her portfolio would be worth more than enough to buy the house for of my grandparents who had just bought, which was $1.4 million.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Our conversation ended at that point, but this naturally left me with lots of questions and doubts. Now you're going to be surprised guys, that some of his doubts are that a woman would buy Bitcoin in 2010. That's a lot of the doubt of these guys. I didn't think of the gender angle on it. I just thought of like, people do lie. That's like a classic liar's lie. Do you know what I mean? Like a con man lie.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Like I got a bunch of money in Bitcoin, you know? Like that's really something that they would say for sure. So I have 7,000 acres in Anchorage elastic about outside. Now that would be good. I have my joke didn't work. Cause I think that would have been. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Fairbanks. That's where, that's where you were. Yeah. Beautiful place to go freezing cold. He goes, what's the price? What surprises me is that she claims to be living off the money she's currently making by working. Haven't spent any of her bitcoin and is living well below her financial means. I first met her and her mother in Spain back in 2017, which would be before bitcoin completely went to the moon, and they lived in a rather humble apartment in an average neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:38:39 My girlfriend lived with her mom there until she came to the states in 2020. Her entire story seems plausible, but I want to trust her, but I feel like I need to verify if it's true. I'd hate to be too nosy about her personal finances because this proves as a major evidence of her trustworthiness and this would honestly change the entire course of my life if I got married. Do you want me to be lying? What should be my best course of action to verify my girlfriend's claim? So I would say your best course of action would be to make your own life and try to earn your own money first and foremost.
Starting point is 00:39:12 I mean, this guy's thinking, oh, if I hitch to this wagon, then I could be set for life. I think she's lying personally. I do not. You don't think so? I think she is because I don't think that you would be living in that way if you had access to that amount. I think that you would have pulled some of it out by now and you'd be living a little bit better at this age.
Starting point is 00:39:36 I don't think there's that many young people that are that forward thinking financially who are like, no, I'm just going to put away all of my money and save it all away and live all within my means until you know I just don't I don't believe and it just sounds like a lie it just sounds like a lie. I don't believe shit that this girl is saying. And I was a detective for 32 years and I'm telling you, just sheer stats. No, I wish them luck. I don't think they're going to. I don't think they're going to. Seriously. And I don't mean to overreact, but here's what I really think. I like to make a joke, but then you, you know.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Yeah. These people, these people that you're talking about right now, they need to be in serious medical facility. Figure what's going on. Time. We talked about it before. I know we discussed it and we had discussed like, we're going to be making fun of these people a little bit, giving them a hard time. I do feel like maybe you're taking it a little too far,
Starting point is 00:40:44 say they need to be institutionalized. I do feel like maybe you're going, you're taking it a little too far. Say they need to be institutionalized. I don't know that you totally, you know, I'm going to tell you the truth. And I was holding back. They need to go with the garbage truck from the city. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you can't. That's that's that's a crime. I want to say I've spent three days on the crypto forums and on the sub right. And I'm going to tell you why I believe the woman. OK, one, you. It is very, very like everything. Every it's very prevalent to say, don't tell anybody you have Bitcoin. Like they all feel like somebody is going to steal your Bitcoin or ask you
Starting point is 00:41:25 for money. I know that you have it. So it's very much like you need to keep this a secret. Don't tell your parents. Don't tell anybody. Don't let anybody know that you have it because then what do you mean your parents like who are these people? You don't trust your parents? Like my the idea that my parents are going to rip me me off the funniest thing in the world Yeah, I'll give you one here this Alex de Sasha said my mom found out I invested in Bitcoin My boomer mom found out that I invested some of my money in Bitcoin couple days ago I spoke with my dad about it because I thought I can trust him.
Starting point is 00:42:06 But yesterday, he told her about her son's involvement. Anyway, my mom thinks I'm a 19-year-old idiot. Thanks that Bitcoin is a pyramid scheme invented by some rich people to scam us. And she made fun of me by asking if she could touch the coins like real money. Okay, so that's, I mean, she's mocking you and she's kind of, she's like, she has the attitude that a lot of us do that this is a scam.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Now I understand people bought Bitcoin at really low, like Brian was talking about it. It went up really high for a time. I don't know where it's at now. I have no idea, but it is associated with scams a lot. So I think that the mom has just heard the basic stuff about it. It is like, yeah, doing the classic like, hey, let me touch your bitcoins because she knows that they can't, you know. Right. But he's not told his mom.
Starting point is 00:42:55 That seems a little wild to me. Yeah. Instead, you believe her. And then you went to explain why. But I think you got interrupted. But I was curious why you believe her. Well, because they say to keep it a secret number one, but she didn't didn't she say something Yeah, she did. She did. Yeah this guy what this guy didn't ask for any more information about it and I just think that like
Starting point is 00:43:20 If you're smart enough if you are I hate to say smart enough because they're gonna make fun of me for're smart enough, if you are, I hate to say smart enough because everybody's gonna make fun of me for saying smart enough, but if you're the type of person that did invest in 2010, then you would also be the type of person that would be very untruth. You wouldn't trust people and you wouldn't tell people now these people have been together for two months. So I mean, I guess that's getting there. I got to be honest, I changed my opinion. I have to think these are real people. They live somewhere they might hear this. So what I want to say is, if you give me if you trust me that with their address, no, no, no, no,
Starting point is 00:43:58 no, no, no, we can't we can't trust you after this stuff. He said initially it was so hateful and we can't now give you their address. Chris, I'm kidding you from a completely different angle. That was- Okay. First of all, I'm a peaceful person. You know me for a long time. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:17 If you give me their address, I want to drive to their house and take them out to dinner. Maybe I'll sleep over for a few weeks. Okay. So you're going to move into their house. I want to give them couples counseling for free, but I have to live there. I see. Well, this guy, and I hate to say his name because you know, sometimes you just got to say their names and,
Starting point is 00:44:38 and I'm just gonna say it not gay Chris says, uh, unpopular opinion. At two months, what you say is reasonable, but at, hmm, not gay Chris, says unpopular opinion. At two months, what you say is reasonable, but at, hmm, let's say six months, not knowing about each other's finances would not be prudent. They're at graduate school. Well, that's early.
Starting point is 00:44:56 That's very early to know each other's finances. That's an old person talking because the type of person who's like, I don't go on, you know, like once I'm dating someone, it's a relationship, you know what I mean? Cause when you're a bit younger, six months, you're not sharing fucking financial information with a six month girlfriend. What if I told you that if you were a huge loser and you were working at a
Starting point is 00:45:18 golf course, making $4 and 50 cents an hour, and you were never going to work and you're probably making like $65 every two weeks but living in an apartment with your girlfriend and you kind of needed money sometimes so she just put you on the bank account and you guys kind of just shared the bank account like two months after we got together. Would you think that's weird? You worked at a golf course? weird. You worked at a golf course? Yeah, not in a not a job. Hang on.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Hang on a second. This is huge lore for us. Todd, we've learned he was a cable guy. We know that like the movie Cable Guy and he's not like he worked at Chuck E. Cheese as well. That was another job he had. But I did not know you worked at a golf course. So you're saying your absolute saint of a wife supported you two months into the relationship because you only made $65 a week?
Starting point is 00:46:14 We're talking like a month into the relationship. She would bring me home groceries before she put me on the bank account. So she would bring me a big bunch of Hot pockets in Mountain Dew and that's kind of what I would eat. Now where you crushed at this point, were you crushing up pills and snorting them? I was doing a lot of pills at the time. I wasn't crushing them up yet. John just gave me the look like, Oh my God. No, I was kidding. I was over. I was like, Oh dear Lord. I didn't snort them. I didn't snort them. I put them on a paper plate, made a funnel and poured them into my mouth.
Starting point is 00:46:47 Oh yeah. Sorry. I like you do whatever feels good. I agree. So, but yeah, I w I was a dishwasher at a golf course. I was working probably six hours a week and I wasn't bringing in any money. I was very bringing them very little money. So she put me on a bank account and got me a bank card
Starting point is 00:47:07 and I had some of her money. So I think that's extenuating circumstances. And also, I don't know, did you guys kind of know, I mean, you're still together however many years later, right? 25. 25 years later, you're still together. So did you, at that point, was it like, oh, we kind of know we're going to be together here.
Starting point is 00:47:25 No, I don't think we knew we were going to be together for 25 years. I think we were kind of like, Hey, you know, we know it's, it seems good. This seems good. Let's just do it. I'm going to tell you right now. And I'm not trying to be problematic. There's something going on here. There's something going on here. She just thinks I'm a wonderful guy. I mean, I could have her come on the show sometimes, but I mean, her and your daughter should come on definitely at some, but I think it takes the fun out when they come on and everybody, well, for me, cause everybody always says they're so nice and they like them a lot.
Starting point is 00:48:02 I'm like, wow. Now when I complain about them, you know, Brian, when you complain about them, nobody believes you. Everybody hears the facts and everybody already knows that they're right. In almost every circumstance, right? Uh, the guy goes, getting yourself out of this monetary insanity will take planning and maybe some dynamite. Who knows?
Starting point is 00:48:25 Well, in 2010, she could have got 50 Bitcoin this is so disgusting this is this is this is a crypto guy for real well in 2010 she could have gotten 50 Bitcoin just by asking for it so could easily be true but a 15 year old girl on Bitcoin in 2010 is unlikely And then the original poster goes, my thoughts exactly. So like this stuff was going on at that time. And like, I think a lot of older people don't understand how savvy young people are on the internet at a younger age. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like they don't, I have a 20 year old daughter that, you know, she knows how to find whatever
Starting point is 00:49:06 she has to find, you know? Um, I should, I want to interject here cause I realized I, well, I only, I did this once before the beginning of the episode when we had Gavin on, but we don't normally have people on who are like specifically have something that they're promoting. Um, Oh, you make me look bad. Oh, Yeah. So actually while I watch the video, I- Well, because it's something,
Starting point is 00:49:29 listen, I'm not a big promo guy. I'm not a big ad guy. I don't like doing ads. But the reason I want to say something about it, and Todd, you can talk about what it is, but because I've been a part of Todd's show before in that probably not the exact version that you're doing now. I'm sure it's different. It looks different from even the promo. It's probably better because you're not on it. Yeah. You could argue that because I was in the band and I didn't know how to play music. So I was
Starting point is 00:49:59 just at a stand in pretending to be in the band so I could do back and forth with Todd during his show or whatever. But my point being that I've seen your show with the music and all of this stuff. And it's one of my favorite shows that I've ever seen as far as a standup show, because it doesn't feel like a standup show, it feels like a real event. And that's why I'm actually,
Starting point is 00:50:23 like when you sent me the thing and you're like, hey, this is something that I'm doing. If like when you sent me the thing and you're like, Hey, this is something that I'm doing. If I am going to come on the podcast, this is something that I'm doing. I was super stoked because it seems like such a good thing. Do you want to say like exactly what it is or? Yeah, I will. So I today I put that same it's just like a four and a half minutes and the guy did a really good job. I know it's me being funny, but that's not what I'm complimenting those reels can suck You can watch them and go what am I gonna say?
Starting point is 00:50:50 He really captured that it's yeah from like before people get there. Even when they're in line Before the show I have a saxophone player outside like the night begins in a big way until after the show When they're outside, I try to have the band go out there, sometimes I'll have an ice cream truck or something. And he really captured like from before they get there till the very end and it's four and a half minutes. So I really don't try to explain it because you know what I learned over the years? I mean, yeah, there's a band. It's basically stand up. There's a band, you can say there's bits, but I don't go past that because no matter what you say, they're not gonna picture it
Starting point is 00:51:28 Yeah, that's to watch it They just now that I have that that he you know The guy Steve Rosenthal edited that together is like four and a half minutes even for my own family I swear to God they're like, what do you do? I'm like, oh I do this show, you know, and I'm like trying to make it no matter what you say But they go watch that four and a half minute video. It's on my website. So I'm trying to take that show,
Starting point is 00:51:49 and that's what, you know, I wanted to plug. Sorry for the plug festival at the end. And we're trying, we're starting over at Seed and Spark, a crowd source to get the budget to go do like, maybe a run off off Broadway or just in New York, the That's what the budget is for that. Then to go do the show a month in, maybe a month in New York City with a robust, I like to use the word robust, advertising budget. I mean, I seriously hope that it gets done.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Is there any chance that you would you film it once it was done do you think or you're not sure yet? Well, you know what? The goal really is to just put on this like just this fucking just yeah, great tight stand up with the band, just the whole thing. Live and get that type. But I think one of the things we have in the budget is to shoot it along the way because you know, why not?
Starting point is 00:53:00 Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah, everyone will get to it. So yeah, if you get a chance in regardless of whether you're in New York and see that or Todd tours or something and comes to city, I'm telling you honestly go to watch the show. I know that. Yeah, that stuff's so hard to do. I did a show with a band on stage and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done because I did it. I'm not like used to it. And it was punk.
Starting point is 00:53:27 And the whole gimmick was that I jumped in a mosh pit. But doing a show with all those moving parts is so... Yeah, I did a live, not even a show. So my channel, I did a live NEAS in Vancouver and I did a whole thing. I had an Elvis impersonator costume and did a full Elvis song and a bunch. Yeah, Todd, you would have really loved it. You would have appreciated all kinds of crazy bits and stuff like it. Brian, please put away the magic.
Starting point is 00:53:55 He ordered these magic thumbs on a magic website, Todd. I don't understand them or what they're meant to. Oh, yeah, I can't tell you. I wish I could tell you. But it was it really is. the I just put on a show. Well, it's really what I do around the stand up. Like I said, the guts of it, it's a stand up comedy show, but there's just a lot around it. Like, you know, the playing in the street, you know, sometimes that could be a pain. You have to get the sax player. But I realize it changes the whole like if they're a block away,
Starting point is 00:54:38 you start entertaining them. If they hear that saxophone from a block away, not just some like bullshit line. You started entertaining them a block and a half before they got to the theater. Like you can take advantage of. Yeah. I've watched it. Some clubs, they're sitting there for an hour. They open for an hour. I'm like, well, I'll send not the whole band out, but like keyboards and drums. And they're swinging like they're not just fucking doing any background music.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Yeah, they're playing like music to listen to. Yeah, they're instrumental, but they're playing in the crowd. And as they're sitting there, it's like dark and swanky. And this cool looking band is up there. And then that's an hour of light another, you know, and then afterwards, when they spell out into the street, you can extend it out there. So anyway, it's really good. The video is very good.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Yeah, the video is over on my website and then seed and spark. I want to make sure you know, we'll post a link to it. We'll post it on the episode. Yeah, and all that stuff will be on the episode description and we'll post it up in our discord and stuff as well. I think you'll appreciate this. Like there's different tiers and we don't even need to get into them. But the one I'll tell you we're the the I don't care if like eight people chip in and I'll call the bank, go fuck yourself. Like you name it, you get to name it. You give me $10,000, I'll figure out a way. Don't make it too hard for me, but what if somebody just said something really vile?
Starting point is 00:56:36 I know that's the- Yeah, that's the worry that I always get. Certainly with our audience, with our audience, you gotta be, there's a few trolls there that might have a little fun. some rich trolls might have a little fun with their sex stuff. They just it's all sex stuff. They like sex stuff because Brian Brian's in the lifestyle. I'm not in the lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:56:56 You know what's funny, though? I'm glad you brought up the stand up because something I like to do sometimes when we do one of these shows is get some jokes. Oh, no. When I looked at some crypto jokes. These are all very bad. Well, OK, whatever. People are probably crying in their car laughing so hard. Here's my first one here.
Starting point is 00:57:18 Superman once went to a party. Some people wore Bitcoin suits. Other Dogecoin. Superman was upset. No one told him it was crypto night. It's a long way to go. But then in the end, you kind of get it right. Crypto night, crypto night. Yeah. And that's most of the jokes. Clark can't look. I just want to, I just want to just let everyone know. I mean, Todd is one of the most fun loving guys that I know.
Starting point is 00:57:51 And he's a great laugher. You know, when you're hanging out, when you're telling jokes, he's a great laugher. He sat there staring so seriously at the camera there with absolutely no recognition or expression for that joke. Well, okay. Yeah, no, I know why, because it's so funny. It's good, it was good. Clark Kent looked ill when I invited him to our Bitcoin trading party after work.
Starting point is 00:58:17 I wonder if he has an aversion to crypto night. Okay, so this is a joke that's been made a few times. You're saying Superman would have hated Elon Musk as much as Lex Luthor because he loves his crypto. So he didn't do the night part. He didn't do the night. Somebody should punch that joke. He loves crypto at night. You know, Oh, wait, one more, one more. Batman invited all the superheroes to an evening discussing Bitcoin investments. Superman didn't go because it was a crypto night.
Starting point is 00:58:55 So this is I can see they've they figured their joke out. It's all on the same page. I'm telling you, those are all on Joe jokes. The place we go to get jokes like we're for the Jeep guys. We got their jokes. You didn't write those. No way. No, no. These are just there's these weird pages that you can just type the thing you're looking at and then jokes and then it's all jokes like this.
Starting point is 00:59:17 It's it's it's what's the source? You wrote them so I couldn't go like, oh, you could have been mean if I wrote those. Oh, that's why he wants to try some of his crypto jokes. And I thought you knew they were like, maybe they were bad, but you wrote them. So I didn't want to reward you. Went laughing. I appreciate that. But but but I also couldn't laugh, but I didn't want to say anything. But we were listening to them, ironically, which changes the whole.
Starting point is 00:59:46 What about this one? This is the number 10 here. He goes, a wave of crime is sweeping metropolis. Superman is helpless to stop the instigator, a code breaking and duty enthusiasts dressed in full plate armor. Can no one save us from the crypto night? Oh, wait, that's the different night though. That's a night.
Starting point is 01:00:08 That is a slight variation of the joke. Yeah, the jokes are always good. You know, I have another one here. Let me see. If you get rich from crypto, keep it as a secret. Don't tell anyone your future will thank you. This is from our cryptocurrency. Some people have what is called here in New Zealand, tall poppy syndrome.
Starting point is 01:00:34 People become envious and resentful when you get rich or more successful than them. Some people will go like, wow, you're rich now. Can you lend me $10,000? That's me, actually. And also, that's I don't think that's unique to New Zealand either. I think that's worldwide. Yeah. You got a million dollars. Ten thousand is nothing, mate, right?
Starting point is 01:00:54 I'll put it to you into a dilemma. We know if you lend them $10,000, you might lose $10,000. And your friend as well. I do have to bring up because I maybe have mentioned on the podcast before, but my. I had noise. Oh, it's OK. I will get it. We'll get it out of there in post anyways. The my my brother and his good friend, my brother's good friend used to babysit for Bryant Big Country Reeves, who was a famous basketball player for the Vancouver Grizzlies.
Starting point is 01:01:23 He was a big signing, signed a huge $75 million contract. And my brother and his friend asked them, they were high school students. And they said to him, can you just give us $500,000? And we'll just invest it and just get the money off the interest and then we'll just give it back to you or whatever. No, he wouldn't do it. He would not do it. I know everybody I know that says they have money I ask for $10,000 Yeah, I Ask anybody for money even people to store My hurting I'm doing very well I had a good year I'm on ten-year-old Tom I voiced the principal at HCO max And I'm about ready to do a tour
Starting point is 01:02:05 just because I'm having a crowd source on C Spark does not mean that I'm not doing well. It's just a project that I'm funding, okay? Have you seen his TikToks or his Instagram? Listen, I don't wanna plug another thing here cause this Todd didn't, this is nothing but- Oh, I do. But this Todd's Instagram or TikTok,
Starting point is 01:02:24 I follow it on Instagram, your Instagram reels Todd glass show on Instagram, but I tell everybody I tell everyone on my streams constantly, I've been talking about it all the time. They are really the thing that makes me that laugh the most right now is your ones, you know, with the Uber driver or the Airbnb host or you're in the grocery grocery store now. I fucking love those. If you have not watched them, go to Todd's Instagram and watch those fucking reels.
Starting point is 01:02:50 A few of them have gone like massively viral. And the number two thing that makes you laugh is like when Tom broke his penis in Jamaica, like that is another. Yeah, we got this guy that we follow who's a sex swinger guy named Tom. He works for Tom's Trips, but it's a different Tom's Trips than the guy who owns Tom's Trips, but he's he recently went to Jamaica and he broke his penis
Starting point is 01:03:13 and we haven't watched the video yet, but that's the title of the video is Tom broke his penis in Jamaica and these old swinger couples. So we're very excited. Sounds, sounds hot. I mean, interesting. I gotta go. Hey, you know what I like to do? Always give a shout out to somebody.
Starting point is 01:03:31 I've been doing it on TikTok that I think is really funny. So during the pandemic, this guy started putting up videos. I'm like, you know, after three videos, you're like, this guy's really funny, or this, you know, whoever it is. So Devin Palmer, go watch Devin Palmer, P-A- do three videos. You're like, this guy's really funny or this is, you
Starting point is 01:03:45 know, whoever it is. Yeah. So, Devin Palmer. Go watch De Devin Palmer. His videos are very specific. He has a very niche thing that he does which I **** love. I can't get enough of it. So, there you go. Well, I'm going to let you guys,
Starting point is 01:04:02 we're we're going to get out of here. I just want to do one last thing. I want to tell you what happens if these guys get rich like what their dreams are and It's good to know hopes and dreams, you know First guy says wife changing money. That's cold. My plan is just enjoy life without having to worry about work I'll still drive my modest Subaru live in my modest three-bedroom house and just take more trips and play more video games, which seems. I mean, listen, that's, that's like, I got it. I probably would too. I mean, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:04:33 It depends on what my living, I don't need, I don't want to have a huge monsters house, so I would be fine to be in like a reasonable two. I love Brian's honesty though. But yeah, I don't mind being in like a two, three bedroom place or whatever that has enough space for my stuff. Yeah, trips and experiences. That's what I would want to be spending my money on, going to do a lot of different stuff.
Starting point is 01:04:54 I'd get season tickets to sports teams. I'd have Canucks season tickets. I'd go to LA and watch basketball all the time. That's the type of stuff I'd be doing. Going to England to watch Manchester United. And our last guy here. I would do that maybe would be gluttonous is have a, you know, like maybe a real McDonald's on my property. Like a mini McDonald's. Like I have a big enough property where I stand. I mean Todd, that's very awesome. I mean, that would cost a lot. Why? Because you're helping the economy.
Starting point is 01:05:30 I would pay people amazing wages. People have to build it. They get paid. There's plumbers, there's employees, there's carpenters, there's mazes. Yeah, that's true. What I just mean like that does feel like a real uber rich thing to do. That's like
Starting point is 01:05:52 It's like Tommy Lee had the Starbucks in his house before there were Starbucks friggin everywhere. He had on cribs Somebody had maybe Barbara Streisand somebody had the mall Famously like below their house or they had their own mall that like fully had shops. Barbara Streisand had, I shouldn't know this, but I do. If I, if I remember the 60 minute interview, it's, it's everything, which, you know, this isn't a bad thing. At least she keeps it, says something. But, um, she has the, like in the basement, it looks like, you know, we're shell after shelf and room after room of shelves
Starting point is 01:06:26 with all the stuff people gave her over the years. Oh, really? Yeah, it's probably some wild stuff in there. Yeah, there's some crazy shit in there. Like I don't have a box yet because I'm afraid of what people are going to send me. Like I had to get I had to get a box because we had to get the baby, the baby stuff sent over and then we posted up the baby list thing online and realized I had my fucking home address on there. Oh no. Yeah, it's it's um if I had a ton of money I'd waste it on like everything you know I just run around the country having apartments everywhere.
Starting point is 01:07:05 I would spend it all. I'm like the law. I understand that I'm the guy that wins the lottery and goes broke in five years. Like I will not, that's not gonna change. It doesn't matter how much money I ever get. It's never gonna be enough because I like spending money. You know what?
Starting point is 01:07:23 Now that I think about it, I think the only thing that I would do that I, you know, I could see it's excessive. It's over the top, but this is really it. And it's not even that bad. I get a convertible and I load it up with like whatever a big stick, you know, when it comes with a wrap around it, like if it's $500, like $5,000 wraps, you know, and I throw people but aggressively like Someone on the corner doing something stupid I'd go hey leave them alone I heave Adam. That's other than that. That's that's all. Well, I would reopen an old mall and live there. But bring back all the stores like you'd have a Norris drums. I basically
Starting point is 01:08:12 I take them all and bring it back to its peak of success. And I'd spend the money opening every single store but it would just be for me. So it'd be like my closet the mall like, Oh, I need a pair of pants. I'll go to the gap in my closet. You just reminded me of something. I'm just real. I'm going to tell this story. This guy we knew growing up, his brother was a big time, like weed dealer guy. And he had a big suitcase, not a suitcase, like a big chest of weed in his basement and this dumb ass kid stole it and then took it to our house and we split it
Starting point is 01:08:45 all up among each other and sold it. So we all were like 16, 15 years old and we had like all this money, like a lot of fucking money. And every day me and my brother and a couple other guys would get up, we'd go to the mall, we'd buy a new outfit, a new cologne and a new pair of shoes. go to the mall, we'd buy a new outfit, a new cologne and a new pair of shoes. Every day. Every day. Breakfast, new cologne. Yeah. Your daily schedule.
Starting point is 01:09:12 Yeah, we would go get breakfast and then we'd go to the mall, we'd get cologne and a whole outfit. And then we'd go. Oh, I love that. You gotta love that, right? What kind of outfits? Like a... Fat arm.
Starting point is 01:09:23 Yeah, baloon suit. Baloon or like tracksuits kind of. like a fat arm? Yeah. The largest. Balloon are like tracksuits kind of. Yeah, like the nicer stuff. I mean, you can't get anything really super nice at a mall, but like the nicest stuff at at the mall and like, you know, the police ended up actually catching on and then they started harassing us. And it just became a whole thing after that. But I don't know how you can't spend too excessively.
Starting point is 01:09:47 I learned about that. I like American gangster when Frank, you know, when he brought wore the fur coat to the right. That's that's the issue. That's the problem you had there. We went we went bowling like two nights in and we were betting like I'll bet you a thousand dollars. I get a strike.
Starting point is 01:10:03 Well, that's great. And we're we're doing that at a Bolero as well with the dry. I know the Bolero is great. More bowling guys as well. Todd and we learned that Bolero is a terrible place with dry lanes and they don't grease them up enough so you won't get a true. I went I went to Bolero this week recently and I lost the first game and I said bowling's bullshit.
Starting point is 01:10:24 This Bolero sucks. The lanes are dry. One, the second two games. And I was like, we got to come back here. We need to, they might have greased them up when you're in between the lanes. I know we got to go. Well, at least I know that I have to go, but I do have to ask you a question. I was watching you, you're, you know, on the video when I was talking about, um, you know was talking about building the mall as my closet. I don't think you really were picturing it. The front of the house would be nice. People would pull up. There'd be big trees hiding the mall part. It would just look like...
Starting point is 01:10:56 But when you were in my house, you'd go into the bedroom, into the walk-in closet. It would just be like a regular door to any house. Then you'd open it up and that was your entry into the walk-in closet would just be like a regular door to any house. Yeah, I don't know. I get it. Open it up. Yeah, I get it. Entry into the mall. No, I understand. And I just feel like it just feels like a it feels like a bit much. You know, you're saying that, oh, this is the only thing I would do. But it's like that would cost like a billion dollars to do. It's interesting, too, because richness that Todd got exactly what being rich is. It is having a huge house, but it looks small from the street like that is.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. Yeah. You have like the thing where it looks like it's a rancher, but it's not. It's like on a cliff, you know, just only the front part has one thing and there's actually like five stories. That's what real rich guys live in. Like a guy like me would just be like, what's the nicest apartment in town?
Starting point is 01:11:48 I want that. But thanks for doing this, Todd. You close with a song. I hope you guys. All right. Thank you. If you want more of us, it's patreon.com slash murder.
