Give a little time for the child within you. Don't be afraid to be young and free.
Undo the locks and throw away the keys and take off your shoes and socks and run you.
It's Jordan Jesse Doe. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart.
Jordan Morris, boy detective.
Wearing that fish shirt today, Jordan.
It's fish shirt season. This is the first, this is the debut, this year's,
the seasonal debut of this fish shirt, which I love to wear during the summer months.
You look like a million dollars, Jordan.
Thank you.
You know how I feel about that fish shirt.
You like it?
Yep, I do.
Okay, all right.
I used context cues to deduce how you felt about the fish shirt, and it turns out I was right.
Yeah, I mean, this fish shirt, we should clarify, by the way.
Do you want to describe the fish shirt?
Yeah, well, it says,
Big for a scintillating podcast experience.
Big picture of Trey Anastasio.
Right, yeah.
A guy from Fish.
That's literally all I know about Fish.
We've now reached the bottom of my knowledge.
Farmhouse?
What's that?
I think it's one of their songs.
Oh, I was going to ask if it was one of their albums.
Na, na, na, na, farmhouse.
I really don't think I've ever heard a Phish song.
Have they ever had a hit song?
No, I mean, I think they're a series of bass solos.
Okay.
I think calling them songs is probably...
I lied.
I think Phish fans might argue.
Because I read Nathan...
Na, na, na, na, farmhouse.
I read Nathan Rabin's book where he gets into fish and insane clown posse.
I also read that.
It's a lot of fun.
Good book.
And I was inspired by Nathan Rabin's book because Nathan is really generous about fish and insane clown posse in the book.
Yeah, the theory of the book is like, can I learn to understand the two greatest jokes in music?
Yeah.
And I don't think he is ever exactly complimentary of Insane Clown Posse's music, which is good because it's terrible music.
It's genuinely terrible.
They're very bad at every part of making music.
But, you know, he makes, he's makes a coherent,
I think,
defense of magnets.
How do they work?
I don't know how magnets work either.
So I,
I,
I thought that was a nice,
it really,
when,
when,
when we were all as a culture making fun of that.
Yeah.
I,
I mean,
I joined in.
Right.
I'm,
you know,
I'm a fun guy.
I like to have fun.
Right.
But I also, it really brought to light how few things I know how they work.
Yeah.
I know how basically no things work.
Yeah.
Name a thing.
Go ahead.
Jesse, name a thing.
Jesse, name a thing.
I mean, cars.
Don't know how they work.
Right.
I know there's a tiny explosion involved.
I mean, this is new information to me.
Yeah. So my beef with that song was I was kind of like, guys, I know why we're making fun of Insane Clown Posse.
Their music is terrible and they dress up as killer clowns on stage.
But and they're, you know, they're bad at all parts of the music.
They're bad rappers, bad beats, everything.
But like this is obviously just a song about faith.
Like, it's not...
Like, you listen to four lines of the song.
It's not the most elegant song about faith.
But it's not actually about how they wish
they understood how magnets work.
And there's a funnier part of that song,
which is they're mad at scientists
for trying to explain things.
Can we all pile on that?
I kind of liked their attitude about accepting miracles into your life.
Yeah, sure.
I thought that was kind of a nice sentiment.
Giraffes being beautiful animals?
Yeah.
It is.
It boggles the mind.
How does the giraffe exist?
Yeah.
So that.
Yeah.
And then when I was reading the fish part, Nathan is more complimentary about Fish's actual music.
And he's particularly effusive about a cover of Boogie on Reggae Woman.
Oh, boy.
Of course, the Stevie Wonder semi-classic.
And I remember at the time, because I was going to interview Nathan, I listened to that.
And I found it to be bad.
Yeah.
It sounds like something that would be bad.
Not to my taste.
But I mean, come on.
We all love.
Nah, nah, nah.
Sing it with a farm.
Bird house.
Farm house.
Sorry.
Is it barn house?
Barn house.
Nah, nah, nah.
Brian, can you look up fish farmhouse or barnhouse?
Is it possible that Barnhouse is just the surname of a guy you know?
Oh, yeah, Jim Barnhouse.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a guy I used to fuck.
Me and Jim Barnhouse going to town.
Wow, so when I said a guy you know.
Gave it to him right in the barnhouse.
A guy you know.
Biblically.
Yeah, okay.
Brian, am I right about this?
Yeah, Farmhouse.
Farmhouse.
It's the name of the album as well.
Was it a successful, was it a hit song, Brian?
I mean, one thing is like-
Did this chart?
There are many, many, many hit rock songs from the alternative rock era that I have no idea what they are.
That mostly I know them because Dave
Shumka will talk about them on stop podcasting yourself.
I have no,
some of them are Canadian.
I'll grant you that.
Right.
The ones that Dave talks about,
but like,
I like,
you don't know what brim full of Asha is.
I read an entire book by a guy from the band semi-sonic.
Yeah.
You talk about this a lot,
right?
It was a great book.
I know their hit song is called
Closing Time. I do not know what this song
is. Oh, really? Yeah.
And I feel like that's a song
that I hear people talk about it.
And they're like, well, it's like Closing Time
by Semisonic. And I'm like,
I don't know. I don't know. I got nothing.
So this Phish album did
have one of their more popular songs, Heavy Things, but I don't
think that's...
That's not the Farmhouse song you're talking about.
Okay.
Okay.
Well, listen, there's literally no way to actually hear these songs.
Yeah.
We should just keep puzzling about them.
But yeah, no.
The good news, Jordan, is that no one who's listening is really passionate about Phish.
So we don't have to worry about anyone writing us an email about this.
Who do you think we'll get an angrier response from?
I mean, it's got to be fish people, right?
But I mean, maybe the juggalos will surprise you.
No juggalos listen to this show.
I think that they do.
And you know what?
Good for them.
One of us.
One of us.
Whoop whoop.
Yeah.
We want to hear from you.
Are you a juggalo JJ Goh listener?
Are you a JJJ Goh?
And we will not make fun of you because one of the things we both read.
I want to celebrate you.
We both read Nathan Rabin's book.
Yes.
And it seems like a really actually amazing community.
I want to go to the gathering.
I mean, a few years ago, our buddy Colt Cabana, who wrestles at the gathering, tried to get me to come out, and I looked into it.
Right.
I looked into it.
I want to go.
Right.
Whoop, whoop.
Here's the thing.
Yes.
If I went to the gathering, one thing about the Insane Clownse yeah that is to their credit i think
is that they'll book a lineup for the gathering of rap artists they'll also book like incubus or
something you know whoever is the person a rap rock yeah that's not to my taste but and then
they'll book vanilla ice sure which i don't i don't want i don't need to i don't want to watch
a vanilla ice concert i want to watch a Vanilla Ice concert.
I want to watch a Hammer concert.
I accidentally watched a Vanilla Ice concert once.
Yeah?
Pretty good.
Oh, okay.
I kind of liked it.
Okay.
I had fun.
You know what's good live?
Ninja rap.
Oh.
Wait, does he do ninja rap in his show?
Yes.
I mean, it's the one I saw.
Holy shit.
Yeah.
Go ninja, go ninja, go. The audience ch. Yeah. That's... Go, Ninja.
Go, Ninja.
Go.
The audience chanted it.
I had a lot of fun.
Do you think Bobby Brown does the song from Ghostbusters 2 in his show?
I should hope so.
It's a mistake if he doesn't.
Okay.
So, anyway, one of the things about the Insane Clown Posse is... It's just sinking in right now for me.
I've seen Vanilla Ice.
They will... what a life they will not only not only is their like record world a world of like uh often highly credible regional
rappers who have sort of run out of commercial prospects in their place they live. A lot of Tim dogs. Sure.
But also they will bring in outside.
They'll have like, oh, the ghetto boys are at the thing.
You get a Busta Rhymes.
Yeah, fucking Busta Rhymes.
I've never seen a Busta Rhymes concert, but I heard it's fucking amazing.
So I'd watch that.
Yeah.
Hey.
Go to that special bridge where you buy drugs. God, I want to go to the drug bridge.
Let's introduce our guest.
Yes.
We'll find out if he's ever been to the gathering and whether he thinks he'd like it.
And maybe we'd like to hear what he thinks about my fish shirt.
Oh, yeah.
Which is what started this whole delightful run.
By the way, I think it's worth clarifying that Jordan's fish shirt is just a shirt with fish on it.
That's true.
It's a short-sleeved shirt with little blue fish on it.
It's a cute shirt.
They're nice. Our guest is a stand-up comic.
He's opening
his mouth to speak.
He's a favorite on Jordan Jesse Go.
He's one of the hosts of the
All Fantasy Everything podcast.
AFE, as it's known.
David Borey.
Hey! I did it!
Colorado's own.
Yes.
The golden boy.
Clowntown, Colorado.
Do they call it Clowntown?
We have a huge, thriving juggalo community in the Denver area.
Wow.
I lived with juggalos.
Really?
Two years.
You lived amongst them?
Yeah.
I know their ways.
You're the Jane Goodall of juggalos?
Yeah, I taught them to write.
Is that what she did?
Yeah, Jane Goodall.
She taught them to write, right?
Is that the story?
That's why it's so amazing.
Jane Goodall didn't even teach anybody to sign.
No.
She didn't teach them.
She was just watching.
So they were just smoking weed watching TV the whole time?
Yes, Jane Goodall taught chimps to blaze.
Well, you got to teach them to roll a J first.
That's true.
Yeah.
But they can do that because they're good at tools.
Right.
Yeah.
The same motor skills that help you get ants out of an anthill with a piece of straw help
you roll a fat dube.
Man, that'd be great if I just had a chimp rolling my doobies.
That would be awesome.
Could you imagine?
You just wrote Scarface 2.
Oh man, he'd have a shirt on probably.
It'd be great.
They could smoke it with their prehensile feet.
He has a shirt on,
but you don't.
No, I don't have a shirt.
It's my house.
You have a shark that's wearing a shirt in this scenario.
Shark's got a T.
Baby doll shark T.
Do you have any thoughts about-
This shark prefers the little cap sleeves.
That's why it likes a baby doll.
Like a baseball T-shirt.
Do you have any thoughts on the issues we've been discussing up to and including my fish shirt?
My main thought is, did you guys know that Stevie Wonder's first name is Stevland?
No.
Yeah, I did know that.
That's wild.
Yeah.
That's all I got.
That's really good.
You said that, and then I was wanting to say it the whole time.
Stevland.
Stevland. Wow. Stevland. Stevland.
Wow.
Stevland Hardaway Wonder.
Have you guys been to Disneyland to check out Stevland yet?
Just opened it.
What?
I don't understand this joke.
Stevland?
Yeah, Stevland.
The new Stevie Wonderland at Disneyland.
Steve...
Yeah, that's funny.
I'm sorry, I didn't understand. I've never been to Disneyland. Steve. Yeah, that's funny. I'm sorry. I didn't understand.
I've never been to Disneyland.
Oh, yeah.
Really?
Interesting.
Not your thing.
You don't have a car.
Yeah.
You don't have a child.
It's a fucking hassle, man.
I got a chimp.
What do I need to go to Disneyland for?
That's true.
He's rolling doobies.
Yeah.
Wait, so let's get back to these.
And you have that churro machine.
Yeah.
You have a churro and that baby doll shark teeth.
Let's get back to Clown Town, David.
So tell me a little bit about the Juggalos that you lived with and how you came to live with them.
Just my hometown is a small town, and there's just—
Are we talking about the city of one million that is Denver, Colorado?
No, I'm from Elizabeth, so it's like 40 miles as the crow flies, but it's fairly rural.
And there's just a bunch of juggalos there, so everybody knows, like from high school,
everybody knows juggalos.
And then, yeah, I just ended up living with Ry-Ry and Tiana.
Wow.
Yeah, for two years.
Those are traditional juggalo names.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, of the Elizabeth.
This checks out.
Yeah.
Okay, your story checks out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, of the Elizabeth. This checks out. Yeah. Okay, your story checks out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's true.
How much time did they spend in clown makeup?
So that's the crazy part.
None.
But a lot of t-shirts, a lot of hockey jerseys.
Oh, okay.
You know what I'm talking about?
Yeah.
But no makeup ever.
And it doesn't even come up that much that they're just like
you kind of forget because they also didn't listen to the music all the time like it wasn't
like constant like they listen did they listen to did they listen to was their top artist on
psychopathic records the icp themselves or no one's is okay that's interesting like it's like in the community
it is acknowledged that other people are better rappers than ICP I would imagine twisted yeah okay
twisted is like there you go I was gonna guess that the most popular the most popular rapper
among juggalos I was gonna guess tech nine Tech Nine. They do love Tech Nine. There is a strange
Tech Nine. Yeah, there's a strange
crossover.
It's because it's called
what do they call it? Gorecore
or something like Horrorcore?
There's a song.
Both of those options
are hard to say. Both Gorecore
and Horrorcore. I don't like either of them.
When my son... Hard to say when you. Both gorecore and horrorcore. I don't like either of them. No. When my son-
Hard to say when you have a mouthful of Starburst, which I often do.
I mean, not unlike most juggalos.
Juggalos love Starburst.
That's true, too.
Just the pick ones, though.
Starburst and Faygo.
Yeah.
When my son was in preschool, I would drive him to preschool every day.
I would drive him to preschool every day.
And I got this E40 album that had a song on it called Zombie with Tech N9ne and somebody else.
It was E40, Tech N9ne, and somebody else.
Man, he really does the craziest collaborations.
I love it.
He really – he'll get out there.
He's all about cross-marketing. And it was at a time when my son was just short of understanding what a song was about.
And also, my oldest child, my daughter, she is just, she is just, like, music has just started to open up for her.
And she's seven.
Like, she previously would just block it out, completely ignore it, no matter what it was.
Yeah.
So I could play any rap music in the car, whatever.
Didn't even-
Didn't even register for her.
And Oscar was my five-year-old, who was then three and a half, four.
I felt like I still had six months before he would be able to tell what the words were and he would start saying swears and talking about shooting people.
And so I thought I was safe with this E-40 album.
E-40 swears a fair amount, but he doesn't really talk about shooting people.
It's more just about fun stuff he can do. Yeah, and
it's hustling and ambition.
Yeah, exactly. Good values.
Kids need to learn to hustle.
But my son Oscar
became obsessed with
this horrorcore song
on the E40 album.
It's Brother Lynch Hung. That's the other
rapper. Oh, man. Brother Lynch Hung
is scary. Yeah.
So it is so weird.
And he just liked the idea that it was about zombies.
The song's called Zombie.
Oh.
Kids do kind of like zombies, don't they?
Yeah.
Maybe not understanding that they're in a state of living death and kind of how terrifying that is.
Right.
Not having your soul at rest. Yeah. Those parts escape them. It's just kind of how terrifying that is. Right. You know, not having your soul at rest.
Yeah.
Those parts escape them.
It's just kind of a funny thing that walks weird.
There's a part where he goes,
a monster, zombie, ghoul, or fiend.
That's the chorus.
Does E-40 say that?
No, it's a sample in the chorus.
Oh, okay, okay.
And that is looped.
And Oscar became completely obsessed with it.
And I've listened to that song 25,000 times because Oscar demands it.
And I've been, over the past year, I've had to, like, trick him into not listening to it.
Because I don't, I can't, like, block him from listening to it.
Because if I do, then he'll get more interested in listening to it.
Right, right, right. So I have to kind of play other brother and chung songs walk it walk it back but
there's this one part in the song that i think about a lot because the whole song is burned into
my head and it's where tech nine says i'ma be drama free like my mama be and i'm like
my mom is i think of that every time my mom is not drama free sure which
is at all your mama brings the drama i have a uh fucking drama mama sure yes and so like whenever
my mom is trying to start shit i'm thinking about i god i wish i had tech Nina's mom. Sure. Is so drama-free.
That's how he became a man who learned to rap that fast and named himself after a gun.
Yeah.
David, how much drama does your mama bring to the table?
Mid-range.
Mid-range?
Okay.
Mid-range.
Nice, comfortable, medium.
Sometimes it's much.
She'll stir the pot from time to time.
Oh, she gets in there.
She'll get in there.
You know who's pretty drama-free?
Your mama?
Gail Morris.
Your mama?
Yeah.
Gail is super chill.
God, she's chill.
Yeah, you have a super chill mom.
Yeah.
Is your dad drama?
You know my biological dad is, yes, covered in drama.
So there you go. So that's why maybe one parent, you know, kind of adopts the drama-free position in the family.
It's weird nobody talks about the drama papas, only the drama mamas.
Well, I think it's because it doesn't rhyme.
It's probably a rhyming thing.
Do you think we should say drama differently?
Drama?
Then we can talk about our dropa papas?
Dropa papa.
Yeah.
Hey, save the Droppa for your Papa.
Droppa Papa sounds like a place where you, like a daycare for dad.
Let them play with other dads.
I took him to Droppa Papa.
He got all tired.
For real, though, my dad's starting to get pretty senile.
I bring him to the Droppa Papa.
Yeah, take him to the Droppa Papa.
Somebody plays like a game of cards that loops,
but they're chill about it.
Yeah, I'm with that.
Or like somebody talks about cheers.
Oh, do papas love cheers?
Well, mine does.
Who's his favorite character?
Oh, that's an interesting question.
I'm going to say, I mean, I'm going to say Ted Danson.
Really? But maybe Coach? I love Coach. question i'm gonna say i mean i'm gonna say ted danson really but maybe coach i love coach true cheers fans coach it's really amazing that woody harrelson is so great on cheers
and uh and that that character is so wonderful when it's the same character as another guy who was completely different
from Woody Harrelson and really great.
You know what I mean?
I don't understand.
How did they thread that?
Like twice.
I feel like the great achievement of Cheers, besides being arguably the greatest sitcom
of all time, is they had two characters who were perfect, who left the show, then replaced them with a second perfect character.
Yeah, that's never happened.
Like, Kirstie Alley, like, I have certain, you know, the idea that, like, career women can't have it all, that premise for comedy is certainly outdated.
Yeah.
But Kirstie Alley is funny as shit on Cheers. Yeah, she's super funny. Kirstie Alley is funny as shit
on Cheers.
Yeah, she's super funny.
Kirstie Alley is so good.
She's super funny.
And when people are talking
about how, like,
once Diane left,
Cheers,
you're like,
no, fucking Kirstie Alley
is funny as shit too.
They're both great.
Can I give you a hot take?
Yeah.
Not a huge Diane fan.
Yeah.
Not a huge Diane fan.
That is very hot.
Yeah, I'm,
I'm Kid Kirsty all the way.
I mean, I called Boogie on Reggae Woman a semi-classic earlier, so we're both treading in dangerous waters.
I might, and hey guys, I might get in there with you.
Really?
I mean, I'm not, listen, here's a take.
Yeah, Jordan's about to say he doesn't like Cheers.
No, I do like Cheers.
Okay.
Here's a take.
Yeah.
Jordan's about to say he doesn't like cheers.
No, I do like cheers.
Okay.
When it comes to, and this is not just because we're about to visit him.
Yeah.
But when it comes to Mystery Science Theater, I'm Mike over Joel.
Oh, yeah.
I'm Mike over Joel.
Yeah. And I know that, you know, that might not sit well.
Yeah.
But you know what?
Come at me.
Right.
Come at me.
Do it.
I prefer a green jumpsuit to an orange jumpsuit i like it
get spicy thank you i will yeah yum yum yeah while we're here what the fuck is tartar sauce made out
of whoa left turn but i don't know i don't know either joel is very funny as well joel's a very
good host i just grew i started watching when mike was the host. And they're both very funny. Mike is a better
host. Sure.
There's a lot of classic Joels as well. They're both really funny.
They're both great. There's no doubt
they're both really funny. Nobody has to
worry about that. You watch Joel
do his shtick on Saturday Night Live
when he's 21 years old or whatever and you're like
yeah, this guy's fucking super funny.
And I think Relish is in tartar sauce
as well. So is it mayonnaise and relish?
That's a...
Sounds like an abomination.
Or is that an In-N-Out burger?
Yeah.
So tartar sauce is just ground up In-N-Out burgers?
Yeah.
Is that why it's so good?
You heard it here first.
Wow.
Now, quick question.
What is Soylent Green?
People.
Oh, shit!
Sweet, delicious people.
I believe it's mostly people
from the eastern bloc. Oh, really?
Like slobs?
Yeah. I mean, I'm not gonna say that.
I don't think that's a slur,
but it might be.
I just tread lightly in these. We're very sorry.
Who do you think
we have more of in the audience? Slavic people
or chugalos?
Oh, man.
I mean –
What qualifies – I mean, are we talking about ethnically Slavic or are we talking about living in a Slavic nation?
I haven't thought this out.
Ethnically, I bet you there's – I bet you there's more juggalos that listen than you think.
It's a lot of undercover.
Yeah, right.
I mean, I think like you said, I mean, it might
be hard to clock a Juggalo.
Yeah. Unless you, like, could see
the Hatchet Man tattoo on their ass.
Yeah. Or their neck. Or their neck.
I went to high school with a kid who has one on his neck.
Wow. In high school? He got it
like a year after. Okay.
I was gonna say, that is
some seriously
irresponsible tattoo artistry.
Well, that's funny.
I had a friend who had one on his forearm in high school.
In high school.
A hatchet man or just a tattoo?
A hatchet man and then a riddle box on the other forearm.
What's a riddle box?
It's from the great Malenko.
This is, we can.
This is, okay.
It's deep.
Yeah.
It's deep.
This is a really powerful experience. deep. Yeah. It's deep. This is a really powerful experience.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think, so the question is more people who-
I think we're limited to people in Slavic countries.
We have a segment that's this.
Okay.
Should we save it for our next-
Yes.
Coliseum?
Yes.
Okay.
So are we doing it now? No, we're? Yes. Okay. So are we doing it now?
No, we're saving it.
It's just really hard for me to think about something else right now because I'm so locked in.
It invades your brain.
Oh, my God.
I'm so locked in on this subject matter.
What I want to know is how many Slavic juggalos there are.
Oh, yeah.
Okay.
Let me put this out there.
I think all fantasy everything would kill at the gathering.
I think they would, too.
I bet you guys probably have more Juggalo fans than we do.
I could see that.
We do like Faygo.
Yeah.
I mean, that's good. There's so many flavors.
I had one, and I didn't care for it.
What flavor, though?
Brown. Brown Faygo. There's so many flavors. I had one and I didn't care for it. What flavor though? Brown?
Brown Faygo?
A nice cold brown?
That's the beauty of Faygo is there's like a billion flavors.
Oh, pennies.
I had pennies flavored.
Well, that's the problem.
Pennies is often out of season.
Oh, okay.
Often out of season.
Sure.
Let's take a break.
Yeah.
We'll gather our thoughts.
We'll be back in just a second on Jordan, Jessica. La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, I'm Jesse Thorne, America's radio sweetheart. Jordan Morris, boy detective. We're hitting the road, Jordan, on the Summer Boys of Summer Tour.
If you're not there, you're either a dummy or live in a city that we're not going to.
Yeah, or you're going to see My Favorite Murder or whatever.
Yeah, maybe we're overlapping with the podcast.
You could do a lot once. They're very funny.
Yeah, very funny show. But if for some reason they're sold out, I think it's still available.
I know what reason they'd be sold out.
Sure.
Much more popular than we are.
That's true.
But we're playing smaller venues.
Yeah.
Much smaller.
What's cool about it is it's less lucrative.
Yeah.
But more intimate for you.
Yeah.
The viewer.
Especially if you go with a lover.
You love an intimate experience.
Oh, yeah, sure.
It's going to kick things off.
Can I recommend, Jordan, that everyone go with a lover?
Yeah. If you have a lover, bring them to the show.
And it doesn't have to be a romantic or sexual lover.
If you just know a cheese lover, for example, bring them.
Oh, sure, yeah.
You know?
We are going on tour starting June 12th.
We're going to be in Minneapolis, Minnesota with the guys from Riff Trax,
Bill Corbett, Kevin Murphy, and Mike Nelson.
June 13th, we're going to be in Chicago
with the great Colt Cabana,
the great Courtney Enloe,
and a DJ set from Jesse himself
after the show.
That's not like part of the show.
No, but after the show,
you can hang out, drink.
I'm going to be spending 45s.
I bought a special box on Amazon.
Hey, are you going to be showing the box off?
Oh, God, yeah.
Come and see the box.
Get a photo with the box.
Brian, I don't know if Brian didn't tell you this, but our whole rider for that show just says box spotlight.
Yeah.
That's our whole.
We're not even going to have microphones for that show.
We're going to have to yell to the audience in total darkness.
Ladies and gentlemen, the box!
Yeah.
And then you guys
are going to go ape shit.
It's a very nice box.
Odyssey is the brand.
That's Chicago only.
So if you're in Chicago,
you're the only city
that's seeing...
Well, I mean,
I guess you could bring
the box to other shops.
No, I don't want somebody
to steal my box.
Okay, well,
so you're mailing it back home
after the Chicago show?
No, I'm going to keep it
in the hotel safe.
Oh, okay.
With your jewels. Yeah. June 14 No, I'm going to keep it in the hotel safe. Oh, okay. With your jewels.
Yeah.
June 14th, we're going to be in Seattle
with John Roderick and Ken Jennings.
Well, that's pretty good.
You're talking about the famous podcasters,
singer-songwriter, and Jeopardy champion?
Yes, those are the same two.
Yeah.
June 15th.
June 15th is a very...
They're all very special shows yeah and something i like
about this tour something i is that every show is going to be very unique right and every show
is going to be very special a different lesson learned yes show um at this one uh i'm gonna get
my first period and uh i'm going to learn the meaning of thanksgiving yeah uh but portland is
a particularly special show because we have a Simpsons legend, Bill Oakley.
Yeah.
That guy invented steamed hams.
He sure did.
He's also an Instagram food review celebrity.
And we have-
Confirmed.
An erotic hypnotist, Siren Reina.
And you've already said that if anyone comes to erotic hypnotism, that you would be willing to be erotically hypnotized.
I am.
I don't know exactly what her presentation entails.
Right.
But if she is willing to erotically hypnotize someone on stage, I will volunteer.
Right.
I mean, I'm sure it's not typically a stage show, so she'd have to make some adjustments.
Sure.
It's probably an intimate thing done by people in their bedroom.
I mean, either way, she's going to make you cluck like a chicken, right?
Yeah, I mean, I should hope so.
I took a look at, so Brian found Siren Raina, and I took a look at her website.
It seems like the main thing she does is hypnotize you into giving her your money.
Man, I hope that doesn't happen to me.
Or do I?
Maybe I do hope it happens to me.
We'll see in Portland on June 15th.
Yeah.
We're going to be in Brooklyn at the Bell House on June 26th with Matt Rogers, recent guest of this program.
We're going to have him do his signature Hot or Not segment.
It's going to be great.
Is that a signature thing that he does, or did we just do it on the show?
We just did it accidentally one time, but it was the best thing that ever
happened in the history of the show. Great.
Yeah. Brooklyn, New York. That guy's so fucking funny.
Brooklyn, New York. Matt Rogers
and the great Ted Leo will be there. Yeah, that's right.
In Boston, Ted
Leo with us again and the great
comic Lamont Price. Lamont Price, so funny.
That guy's so fucking funny.
King of Boston. June 28th
in Washington, D.C. with the great Glenn Weldon.
G-dubs.
And June 29th in Austin with Griffin and Rachel McElroy.
We got a lot of kick-ass guests on this fucking tour.
Yeah, every show is special, except for the ones that both have Ted Leo at them.
Those are extra special.
We have a very special show coming up in Los Angeles as well.
We can't yet announce the details.
Yes, if you're in the L.A. area.
But just know, L.A., that just because you could be seeing Janine Garofalo for $3 at
the fucking improv lab or whatever doesn't mean you're off the hook for coming to Jordan
Jesse.
Come to the show.
It's going to be a fucking blast.
It's going to be great.
We have a lot of fun surprises planned.
We've got an opening act.
Ooh, yeah.
Two acts.
Great.
Yeah, two acts on this show. Don't leave after they get off stage. We've got an opening act. Ooh, yeah. Two acts. Great. Yeah, two acts on this show.

The slow cooker.
Let's do that.
Let's make slow cooker carnitas.
Sit there while it's slow cooked?
Well, you slow cook one the night before.
Oh, you could bring it out.
And this is what it looks like after.
That's just good producing.

It's Jordan, Jesse Goh. I'm Jesse Thorne, America's Radio Sweetheart.
Jordan Morris, boy detective.
Slacks Milwaukee, attorney at law.
Oh, shit.
Help me, Slacks.
I'm drowning.
I know this is not your area of expertise
but you're the only one around
I'm willing to sue the ocean
I'm there
thanks slacks
oh David Borey
last week on the show
by the way Jordan
last week on the show
I talked with Nick Adams
and Liz Gilbert
about this guy who was at the Lucha Libre match that I went to in Mexico City who just looked like a guy who would have a long career as a character actor but only play doctors and lawyers.
Oh, yeah.
And I compared him to, oh, like that one guy who only plays doctors and lawyers in everything and he's always great.
And I couldn't remember what his name was.
And someone on the Reddit just immediately posted, oh, you were thinking of this person. He only plays doctors and lawyers in everything, and he's always great. And I couldn't remember what his name was.
And someone on the Reddit just immediately posted, oh, you were thinking of this person.
I had to Google their name.
Yeah.
It was still unfamiliar to me, but I Googled it.
It was absolutely that guy.
Now, what was that guy's name?
Don't remember.
Hey, our Reddit's a lot of fun.
Yeah.
It's a fun Reddit.
Speaking of which.
Yes.
We have some stuff to settle. We have some stuff to settle.
We have some shit to settle.
Right.
So a couple weeks ago on the program. There's some floating shits in this pool.
Yeah.
Where I'm drowning.
Help me, slacks.
I got to sue the shits first.
Right.
In the municipal pool.
I would probably sue the toilets for not being there when somebody needed them.
Yeah, come on, toilets.
Do your job.
Yeah.
So we got this segment on the show
called Coliseum, Bori.
Here's how it works.
We just are asking people stuff
about their lives and counting them.
Okay.
So this past program, two shows ago,
when Jordan and I were together,
along with our guest Baron Vaughn.
Love him.
Who doesn't?
What a joy.
Yeah.
Caught him in an episode of Tuca and Bertie the other day.
Hey.
Hey, there's our friend Baron Vaughn.
He's on all Netflix shows, right?
Exactly.
Yeah.
Exactly.
He's always great.
Always does a great job.
Great in Lillehammer.
Baron Vaughn. My dad in Lillehammer. Baron Vaughn.
My dad likes Lillehammer.
I bet.
It seems like something you would do at the dad daycare.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You corral the dads.
You put on a Lillehammer.
What was it?
The Papa Dropa?
Yeah, right.
Dropa Pop?
At the Dropa Papa.
Dropa Papa.
Throw in some Lillehammer.
Maybe some Steely Dan for their nap time.
Yeah.
Well, actually, that might get them too pumped.
Maybe for nap time you put on
maybe like... What do you put on for dad?
Boston.
No, Boston's going to get them pumped.
They're going to get too hyped.
How do you settle a dad?
Do the doobs get them settled?
No, I can't. I think this...
What about the Allman Brothers?
Who sang Ramblin' Man?
Maybe it's the Allman.
The Allman Joys.
The Allman Joys.
Yeah.
So, we tried to get-
Hey, out there, do you know how to settle down a dad?
206-9844-FUN.
How do you settle down your dad?
My dad's been colicky lately.
Sure, yeah.
My dad shit his pants.
Oh, jeez.
Because of the diaper.
So here's, you feel it's the diaper's fault?
Yeah, well, you know, slacks Milwaukee.
I got this legal brain.
I can't turn it off.
I'm coming for you, pampers.
Okay.
So we were shooting for, our goal in this Coliseum was experiences that exactly 15 people in our audience had.
Right.
Jordan, do you want to tell America and David Borey what your idea was?
I think that 15 people in our audience have had a bad experience at a Blink-182 concert.
Specifically a bad experience.
Era? What era? Does it matter the era?
Over the course of their career.
Any lineup of Blink-182
will do.
This doesn't have to be that the concert was bad,
although it can be bad sound.
But just like it was hard to park,
somebody spilled a beer
on you, something like that.
They played too much late
periods. Initially, I was going to go with have ridden on a Beer on You, something like that. Yeah. They played too much late period stuff.
Initially, I was going to go with have ridden on a hovercraft.
Ooh.
But I changed it at the last minute.
And apparently, and this is why the Reddit was so important, the Reddit let me know,
apparently there was a hovercraft that went over the English channel.
When?
And almost all English people have been on a hovercraft.
Because they took a hovercraft to Paris.
Wow.
To Gay Paris.
Why wouldn't it be gay?
They're happy they got that hovercraft.
Sure.
Their own fucking hovercraft, or half of it anyway.
I guess half of it belongs to each nation, technically.
I don't know.
Am I thinking about the right kind of hovercraft?
Yeah, like the kind that goes on water or land.
Yeah, and like the bottom looks inflatable.
Yeah.
Everybody's taking that over there?
Apparently so.
What will they take over there?
That's what Reddit said.
I didn't check in.
I could have checked in with maybe a Josie Long.
Yeah.
So you're saying, so you think it was good that you changed your answer because that
would have put you way over 15.
Yeah.
Okay.
So I changed my answer to overall
have been to see tony tony tony okay 15 and i will say this i have never been to see tony tony i'm a
big tony tony tony fan do they play together anymore so i we included with or without rafael
sadiq so when in the early in the mid 90s r Raphael Sadiq left the band.
Yeah, they replaced him with Tony the Tiger.
Yes.
The third.
Right.
Tony Danza was in it for a while.
Tony Danza.
Tony, that's a dream team.
Yeah.
He can sing.
He's a talented guy.
You know what?
The thing about the Tony the Tiger era, it was great.
Yeah.
Great.
A lot of good stuff.
Great. I would. It was great. Yeah. Great. A lot of good stuff. Great.
I would characterize it as great.
A lot of people don't know this, but let's get down their last big hit with DJ Quick.
People think that that's Raphael Sadiq singing lead vocals, but he'd already left the band.
That's Tony the Tiger.
Wow.
Yeah.
That's why at the end he says that the song is terrific.
Terrific.
And you know what?
There's some good shit when Shalhoub was in the band
yeah
it was experimental
right
I prefer the Shalhoub years
oh okay
you've always
you've always liked
analog synth
yeah
that's just me
that's how I was raised
right
he was raised to respect
analog synthesizer
in my household
love the Shalhoub
yeah
the Shalhoub era
yeah
a lot of good stuff in there
how do you feel about the Tony Blair years?
You know what?
Not a fan.
Yeah.
Kind of centrist.
Centrist liberal policies are not your thing.
Kowtowing to big business and everything.
Yeah.
I don't know enough about the guy to joke about this.
Special relationship?
Yeah.
There you go.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's perfect.
Special relationship.
That was their hit.
Slow jam of the time.
Slow jam with special relationship.
Girl, you and me got a special relationship.
Yeah.
Let's go down to number 10 Downing Street.
Now we're away.
That's where some British government happens.
It's the prime minister's residence.
Oh, that's where he lives?
Might have got the number wrong, but I think it's number 10 Downing Street.
How many other addresses of world leaders do you know?
Well, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
I got that one.
We all got that one.
That's locked and loaded.
Yeah, that's done.
That's where I got the two.
Oh, okay.
That was pretty good, though.
Where do you think the Prime Minister of Canada lives?
Do you think he even has a palace?
He probably just lives in an apartment in Vancouver.
I think he's just got, I think he's got like a cabin.
He's got a pied-à-terre in Regina.
Yeah.
So did I.
You know what I'm talking about?
There's, of course, one Eiffel Tower way.
Some kind of foot sex, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, getting jacked off with a foot.
Well, it's just, I thought it was when you step on a bunch of berries.
Oh, yeah.
Which can be very erotic as well.
Somebody just watches.
That's my number one sex thing.
Berry stomping?
Yeah, absolutely.
You look like a berry stomper from way back.
Well, I would say berry stomping is number two.
Number one would probably be wine grapes.
Sure.
That's because I'm sophisticated.
That's fair.
Number three is olives.
Sure.
And me, I'm a peach puncher.
Yeah.
Ooh.
Yeah.
You get right into that pit.
Oh, my God. It's hard not to finish right there. I had a boaterer. Yeah. Ooh. Yeah. You get right into that pit. Oh, my God.
It's hard not to finish right there.
I had a boater the whole time I was in Georgia.
My cousin got kicked out of high school.
They called him peach punching.
Yeah.
You know.
You got to, I mean.
You know, that's.
It's not for school.
It's for your bedroom.
You certainly don't want to be doing it in a football practice.
No.
Absolutely not.
So.
What are we talking about?
So, and then Baron Vaughn had a third suggestion.
Yeah.
It was how many people have been to a specific like world-renowned Indian restaurant in Vancouver?
I think it was Vancouver.
Vancouver, British Columbia.
Yeah.
He said only 15?
Yeah.
He believed that 15 Jordan Jesse Go listeners had been to this restaurant.
Brian Fernandez, our producer, Sonny D.
Hey.
Brian, what was the name of the restaurant?
Vidge's.
Vidge's Indian Restaurant.
And it's known because it has a Michelin star, but it's very affordable.
Okay.
I wonder how many of our listeners have been to that restaurant, Lotus of Siam, in Las Vegas.
You ever been to that restaurant?
No.
Does it have a Michelin star?
That's a Thai restaurant.
I don't know if it has a Michelin star, but it's just like a famous thing to do in Las Vegas. You ever been to that restaurant? No. Does it have a Michelin star? That's a Thai restaurant.
I don't know if it has a Michelin star, but it's just like a famous thing to do in Las Vegas, go to Lotus of Siam.
It's like a thing Jonathan Gold was really into.
Have you ever been to Curry Boys in the Castro?
No, I haven't been to Curry Boys.
Like three, four seats.
I've been to Hamburger Mary's.
Yeah, great.
Curry Boys, fantastic.
Oh.
I just wanted to talk with you guys.
No, this is fun to talk.
I like this.
This is what the show's all about.
David, I mean, you've been on the show a number of times.
You're a beloved returning guest.
Thank you.
People ask for you constantly.
And we try and bring them as much of you as possible.
Do you kind of know the audience?
Of these three things, does one of these seem like the right answer to you?
I think – because here's the thing.
If it's world-renowned, I got to think that there's going to be more than 15 people who went to it.
I think we have a lot of Canadians too.
So I think that one's –
Do you?
I think we just – I mean to me just like – I, it's so hard to say without like looking at the data.
And God forbid I would never do that, look at the podcast data, like where people are.
Just like when I see people chatting about the show online, they are always Canadians.
And I think that our audience are also foodies.
You know, Dave and Graham, I think, live in Vancouver.
I don't think they listen.
But Dave's dog, Grandpa, the
little dog with one eye. Oh, he named
a dog Grandpa. He's a big fan.
It's really good. Yeah. Grandpa's
old now, but he used to be a puppy.
My dad's name is Grandpa. Oh, yeah, there you go.
Has that always been his name?
Yeah. Grandpa Dad.
Is he upset that you haven't
fulfilled the prophecy? Yeah, grandpa dad
It cost $4 down the tube goodwill doesn't just take shit back. You know that I'm number four at best
I'm sorry for starting all this drop Okay okay so i think yeah 15 is a small number yeah tony i think it's i think tony tony
tony i'm relying on the overwhelming so i think both jordan and i are relying on overwhelming
whiteness i think for jordan to have had enough i I mean I think Jordan knows from his experience of any time he talks about pop punk or ska or any of the more melodic punk variants, there's a big response.
And I think he's done a canny thing by narrowing it to bad experiences. I think that is a real insight that Jordan has had.
Because I think probably, however you feel about Blink-182, I think at the bare minimum,
there are a lot of Jordan and Jesse Goh listeners who went to that concert when they were 15.
Right.
Or probably a fair number who go now still.
Warped tour.
But I think at the bare minimum, there's a lot who went when they were 15
And I think by
Narrowing it to a bad experience
I think most people are going to have a good experience at that concert
But I think you
I think you've done the right thing
I think you took it from 100
Or 150 down to 15
Very strategically
I'm just relying on the fact
That anytime I talk about any music I like,
no one responds at all.
Okay.
I disagree with that so hard.
Really?
I think you're selectively looking.
I think you have an outsider feeling
that you take to these.
Because I feel like when you talk about
deep cut stuff like that,
not that Tony Tony is a deep cut,
but I feel like, yeah,
every time you do it,
I can't believe Jesse mentioned this.
Okay.
Anyway.
I occasionally get, I'll get a good response to,
occasionally when I talk about,
well, we both talk about Jim Abbott.
Sure, yeah.
One-handed baseball.
People love hearing about Jim Abbott.
Oh, man, Against All Odds was the name of his book.
Yeah.
Yep, there you go.
Yeah, I think people love to talk music with you
about this show, and I don't know, I don't't know why it feels to me like you're selectively blocking it
out okay i think i am yeah well maybe maybe i made a blunder then i don't know how many people
have seen because the tony's have been touring and the tony's also have been touring state fairs
and you know they're playing they're playing good crowds of miscellaneous people i think that they
did those you know those free concerts at Stern Grove in the park?
I think they did that.
Yeah, I'm sure they did that.
Yeah.
I'm confident they did that.
I saw Del the Funky Homo Sapien there.
That's a terrible concert.
Yeah, you don't realize how many songs he doesn't have.
Yeah, very bad performer.
Yeah, and just, yeah.
And this was when he was going by Deltron 3030.
Uh-huh.
Waste of a Sunday, really.
I think that I probably talked on Jordan Yesigo about the time I went to a Dell concert,
and he just did skateboard tricks for 15 minutes.
Good tricks?
But, like, just skate.
It was probably a 12-foot wide stage or 15-foot wide stage.
Basically, no shoes, skateboarding back and forth across the stage
kind of doing kickflips whoa for a solid 10 or 15 minutes what was the show it was a fucking
dell show oh it was a headliner show and then he didn't do mr dobolina you asshole i was like what
the fuck so i have one song dell i mean i guess he in Gorillaz and they're like a multi-platinum.
Who cares about the Gorillaz?
You went to a Del show.
Anyway.
Brian, can you tell us a little bit about how things turned out?
Yeah, so I'll tell you a couple of the stories and then we'll go through the numbers here.
The Blink-182 stories were the best.
Just as far as quality of story?
Yeah, just they had the most.
Because Vigis doesn't really have a story.
It's just we went there.
Yeah, it's a good restaurant.
Yeah, also Tony, Tony, Tony.
They're like, well, they played Anniversary, and I felt amorous.
I will say I think every Tony, Tony, Tony person saw them for free.
It's like a state fair kind of a thing.
Yeah.
I think I would pay,
I mean, look,
if Ray Ray gets back
in Tony, Tony, Tony.
They kick Shalhoub out.
You got all three of the Tonys.
All three Tonys.
Dwayne,
Raphael Sadiq,
other Tony whose name
I'm forgetting right now.
I'd pay for that concert
in a second.
I'm right there.
Yeah.
I mean, I'd pay for,
I'd pay to see Salt-N-Pepa at the fair once.
There you go.
Well, I paid to get in the fair.
Right.
This is free with admission.
Yeah, Alameda County.
Maybe you had to get there a little bit early.
Yeah, well, I spent some time on the footsie-wootsie.
What's that?
You know the thing?
David, don't push it.
You never done a footsie-wootsie?
No, I don't know what that is.
Where you put the corner in and it shakes
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, sure, sure, sure
Love it
Yeah, a foot massage chair
Yeah
Okay, so we got
We also did get some hovercraft responses
One guy was real upset
He said, you sons of bitches
I've ridden in a hovercraft multiple times
This was my moment
Don't call us names
Yeah
Another guy said
But to be fair we really
fuck with this guy's dream that's true we did we didn't even mention his name now i don't know
he's anonymous uh another person has a whole thing uh i am sad you did not keep hovercraft
on here i have built a hovercraft with a team of people back in sixth grade as part of a nerd
competition destination imagination wow this hovercraft could go on grass or gym floor,
but we kept having issues when we put it on the road.
In college, however, the largest hovercraft manufacturer was down the road in Terre Haute, Indiana.
Our freshman floor got to tour the plant and take rides on these things
while a super eccentric old man tried to sell them
to college freshmen in crippling debt.
Yeah, fuck yeah.
That's awesome.
You know what's weird to me
you know who the big you know it is in Terre Haute Indiana mother's cookies oh yeah really sure the
uh cookies iced oatmeal cookies and then they also make the hovercrafts wow yeah another hot
take I don't like mother's cookies they're whack cookies yeah they're great baseball cards bad
cookies don't go good with milk yeah Not for me. Those are like,
you know,
you're feeling like you have low blood sugar
and somebody put them out. Yeah.
Then they're good for kind of maybe getting a little pep up.
I think Mother's Cookies may be a
regional food. I think that may be a West
Coast. Oh, maybe. I'm including
Denver here. Okay. I think that may be a
Western food.
Just think of something else that an old lady brought to the snacks after church.
What if a cookie had a-
Fellowship or whatever it's called in your church.
What if a cookie had a fine wax film on it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
But it had the great rounded corner baseball cards.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
What else do we got?
So a lot of hovercraft.
A couple hovercrafts.
And there is actually, I'll play a call here from somebody who went to Vidge's.
This is the one good Vidge's story that we got here.
Hi, Jordan, Jesse, Brian, and guests.
My name is Brandon.
And about nine years ago, my wife was very pregnant, about seven or eight months pregnant.
And we decided to go up to vancouver
and have a weekend alone before the baby came and we went to vig's restaurant one night and
they have a dish there called the punjabi heart attack a spicy little shot of cashews and other
stuff like that and we had that and that evening i had what felt like a heart attack. Ended up in the hospital in downtown Vancouver for about four days.
Got checked out and everything, and it turned out I had a viral infection of my heart, and everything was okay.
But after eating at Vidge's and having a Punjabi heart attack, it felt like I had had a heart attack and scared everybody quite a bit.
Ruined the trip.
My wife still says I owe her that trip to Vancouver.
So there you go.
I've been to Vidge's.
Thanks a lot.
Why is your wife being mean to you about your heart attack?
Yeah.
Seems like you have a bad marriage fella
before the baby's born every weekend's a weekend alone yeah that's true when i went to lotus of
cyan that restaurant in las vegas that's the first time i ever ate food that made my inside hurt
sure was it just spicy it was just crazy spicy it was just mad spicy. I feel like I've never fucked with anything that spicy, though.
It was so spicy that inside my body hurt.
Really?
Did you get hot?
Not just my butt.
My butt also hurt.
Yeah, I mean, that's a given.
But inside my body hurt.
But I'm not a practiced spicy food eater.
I mean, like, I'm not an anti-spicy food.
I'm probably maybe a little better than the average American, but I'm not one of those people that eat spicy food as a hobby.
Okay.
See, I'm a spice man.
Well, I mean, I can't help but recommend Lotus of Siam in Las Vegas.
I like to go to Jit Lada here in L.A., which is kind of a similar thing.
It's a Thai place that has a lot of, like, you know,
authentic-ery stuff that is like really intense.
Very famous restaurant. Sure.
Yeah, and I feel like when I get a
thing there, I'm like,
something in here
will make my butt hurt,
but I can't tell what it's gonna be.
Is it this string of green
balls?
It's a lot of fun.
It's a real kind of Russian roulette, but with diarrhea.
When I was in Laos, I remember just the complicated.
So I don't speak Lao, but my boss, Vorison, is Lao.
And my then boss, Vorison, is currently Lao and was at the time.
Okay.
And when he would order food for me at like a restaurant or something,
I would see him have this extended conversation with the person.
And he would always explain it.
He's like, I'm trying to get them to give you the white people version.
Right.
And then when it would come, I would eat it very graciously.
It was just a turkey sandwich?
No.
I would be like.
It's a pack of mother's cookies.
I would be like bleeding out of my eyes.
Really? I would be like a pack of mother's cookies bleeding out of my eyes and this was like after the after Vore would have
like a like seriously
like a 60 90 second interchange
with the person about how not
spicy they should make it
and I would just be like this is literally the
spiciest this is spicier than the
spiciest spicy thing I've ever
ordered in a Thai restaurant
this is spicier than eating chili pepper.
This is, you know.
I feel like Americans, we have a low spice tolerance.
Yeah, relatively speaking.
Except for the people for whom it is a weird game.
Yeah, and then that's even weirder.
But, like, my mom can only eat spicy.
Where is your mom from?
Sierra Leone.
Is Sierra Leone a nation of spicy foods?
Oh, they love it. What kind of spicy foods
do they eat? They call it pepper soup.
It's just like...
Not very complicated.
It's just like a stew
that they put over rice. Just ground black pepper
in water. It feels like you get
beat up though eating. It's like
really spicy. But my mom
will eat habaneros and like she
can't even eat pizza without putting like cayenne pepper on it wow yeah she's like whatever what's
the opposite of a white person my mom but no drama no drama mid-range mid-range medium drama
high spice tolerance high spice tolerance no uh What else we got over there, Brian?
So the Blink-182 concerts, it was a lot of miserable stories here.
Somebody broke a collarbone.
Wow.
A lot of people throwing up or getting thrown up on.
Wow.
Getting thrown up on.
Yeah.
That's horrible.
But I can see it happening at the Blink-182 concert.
Sure.
Makes perfect sense.
on. That's horrible. But I can see it happening at the Blink-182 concert.
Makes perfect sense. One person
said he, in
college, they came through on their Take Off
Your Pants and Jacket tour, and I
invited a friend I had made online in AOL
chat rooms. It turned out
to be one of the most awkward evenings
of my life. There was absolutely no chemistry
between us at any level, and yet we
had to spend the entire evening together because
her father had dropped her off. I had also lied to her for some reason that I was two years Wow.
Yeah.
AOL date.
ASL, am I right?
And then another person said they never showed up to play.
It was 2015, and Blink-182 had broken up but not told anyone yet,
so they canceled their performance at a Tsunami benefit concert the morning of.
I was a young teen, and the band was my world, so I was devastated.
Since my parents paid for the tickets, they still made me go.
I don't remember anything about the concert except that I cried the whole time.
Oh, my God.
That's an awful story. That's brutal. Oh, my God. That's an awful story.
That's brutal.
Yeah, that's so terrible.
That experience, that's horrible.
I'm laughing because I'm uncomfortable by how bad it was.
Yeah.
That's the worst.
My mom still has resentment over a concert, a Nina Simone concert that she went to in, like, 1968 or whatever,
where Nina came on, played one song,
looked at the audience and left.
Wow.
My mom is still like, fuck Nina Simone forever.
That's hilarious.
Yeah.
My mom saw Bob Dylan once and she said she hated it.
It doesn't seem like it would be a good show.
Yeah, she said she had a terrible time.
It doesn't seem like a showman.
She said everybody was stoned, which I was like, cool.
And she was like, what?
She's great.
Do we have any more calls?
We have one call here, a Blink-182 call here.
Hey, Jordan, Jesse, and a third person who is neither Jordan nor Jesse.
Nailed it.
My name's Hayden.
I'm from Sacramento.
And I am calling in for the Coliseum because I had a negative experience at a Blink-182 concert.
My friends and I went a couple years ago, and it was a few hours away from home.
And we had to park in an overflow lot that was about a mile from the venue.
And after the show, we decided to kind of wait out the traffic.
So it was late, and it was dark, and we finally got back to the car and it won't start. So we unsuccessfully
flagged someone down to jump it. Couldn't start it still called AAA. They couldn't start it either.
They couldn't figure out why. So I decided, well, I guess I'm going to have to tow it,
but I didn't want to tow it a few hours. So I was going to tow it to like a Denny's or something and then stay in a motel six. Uh, and after hours and hours and hours and hours of trying to get
this thing to start and waiting for the tow truck and waiting for everything, uh, the tow truck guy
is putting it on the truck and realizes that, uh, it has a kill switch, which basically prevents people from stealing it
and turns off the starter. And when I got out of the car, I hit it with my knee.
So it was now six in the morning and we'd been waiting for hours and we were exhausted and we
were coming down from being stoned and it was the worst. And then we went to denny's and had some breakfast and uh
smash mouth by all-star was playing and someone apparently put like 20 bucks in the jukebox
because that is the only song that played the entire time we were at breakfast
so that was my experience at the planquant 82 concert. Okay, bye. From now on, it's definitely called Smash Mouth by All Star.
100% forever for everyone.
Every single person listening to this is legally required now.
One, two, three, jinx.
You have to call it Smash Mouth by All Star forever.
I love it.
I mean, that kind of sounds like a net positive night.
Yeah, I don't know.
It seems like maybe our thing was kind of a bummer.
I'm hearing friendship.
The rest of it sounds great.
I'm hearing you went to Denny's.
Yeah.
I'm hearing you have some type of a James Bond car with a kill switch.
Yeah, what is that?
I've never heard of that.
I've also never heard of that.
God.
What's wild about it is that she definitely bought a used neon
there's like the perfect right but you're driving a used neon to the blink 182 concert when you're
here i have so many questions too where was the concert if they were in sacramento
where did you drive to three hours away to see blink 182 conquered pavilion baby
that's not three hours okay that's gotta's fair. That's got to be like...
Maybe it was in Reading.
Oof, I hope not.
Yeah.
It's got to be three hours
from the sack, right?
Yeah, that's probably right.
Did Blink-182 play
the Monterey Bay Aquarium?
Yeah, man.
Maybe?
Maybe.
They're like, great news,
we brought transparent aluminum.
Star Trek 4 humor.
Okay, so when my wife Great news. We brought transparent aluminum. Star Trek for humor. Okay.
So when my wife was pregnant with Gracie, we went to see the National at, I'm going to say, was that the Greek theater that's in Griffith Park?
Yeah.
We went to see the National at the Griffith Theater. And I like the National about as much as I like other indie rock bands I like, which is, it's nice.
And they're nice men.
And we got, like, press tickets.
So, yeah, we had pretty nice tickets.
And we got there.
We're going to watch the National.
Teresa loves the National.
And we got about two songs in.
And Teresa was, like, seven months pregnant. And she says, this music makes me feel like I'm going to throw up National. Teresa loves The National. And we got about two songs in. And Teresa was like seven months pregnant.
And she says, this music makes me feel like I'm going to throw up.
We have to leave.
Whoa.
So I was like, you know, it wasn't, you know, it's not, I like The National, but I was fine to leave.
It was fine.
You know, my wife's pregnant.
I'm not worried about it.
It's not like we were leaving a Tony, Tony, Tony concert.
Yeah.
I mean, that would have been.
We walk out to our car and we realize that the parking is stacked.
So we just had to sit in the car.
But we couldn't go back in because Teresa really was.
So we just sat in the car for two and a half hours.
Oh, man.
Waiting for the concert to finish so we could unpark our car.
That's when you crank the Tony Tony Tony.
I know.
Have your own little concert.
Should have got down in that black Chevrolet. Yeah. car. That's when you crank the Tony, Tony, Tony. I know. Have your own little concert.
Should have got down in that black Chevrolet.
Brian, do you want to tell us
the numbers? Yeah, let's run down the numbers here.
It's been a couple weeks
now, and Vigis
got a real bump in the second
week, because I think people went there
after hearing this show.
You guys should get a gift certificate or something.
Well, Baron sounds like he knows what he's talking about.
This is a nice place.
I mean, he's on Grace and Frankie, isn't he?
Sure.
And House of Cards?
And Lilyhammer.
Lilyhammer?
And Scrotal Recall?
At the end of the first week, there was 24 viges,
and then they added eight more just this last week here.
Wow.
That is dramatically more than I had imagined.
I know that you think everyone is Canadian and everything.
I was thinking six.
Oh, interesting.
Yes, we're at 32 on that one.
So I don't know if we're at Price is Right rules, where if you go over, it doesn't count.
I think let's just do closest.
I mean, if they're, like, equally between two, maybe we'll do the one that didn't go over, it doesn't count. I think let's just do closest. I mean, if they're like equally between two,
maybe we'll do the one that didn't go over.
But I think let's just do closest.
Yeah, I think closest is right.
I got to fuck with this Vigis.
This Vigis sounded great.
Sounds great, yeah.
I'm getting ready to buy a plane ticket,
go get this Vigis.
I had a nice Ethiopian meal in Vancouver.
Yeah.
Let's double down.
Let's do Vigis.
Yeah, we should get the Punjabi heart attack. Yeah, get the heart attack. And. Let's double down. Let's do Vintage. Yeah, we should get the, I want the Punjabi heart attack.
Yeah, get the heart attack.
And there's two locations now,
so, you know,
you can hit the second one.
It's not as busy.
Is there any chance
the other one's in Pasadena?
Yeah.
I think they're both Canada.
Oh, okay.
So,
the Tony, Tony, Tony,
there were four.
Wow.
There were five
hovercrafts.
Five hovercrafts. Four people have been to a
Tony Tony Tony concert.
They got hit records. Sure.
If I had no loot.
It never rains in Southern California.
There's a list.
Anniversary is a classic song.
That's a song. That's a classic. That's the a classic song. That's a song.
That's a classic.
That's the greatest anniversary song of all time.
Whoa, brother.
Is there a competition for a different anniversary song?
I can't think of another anniversary song right now.
Blink-182 got any, Jordan?
Do they have a?
I don't know.
Good question.
I actually don't like Blink-182.
You don't?
I don't.
Uh-uh.
I think that, yeah.
You just hate them? Yeah, I don't
hate them. They're just not my thing.
But I think like
just because I grew up
going to a lot of those kinds of shows, I have
accidentally seen them a lot.
They're warped tours and what have you.
There was also a period where you and your
high school buddies would just go to any concert
that was in town because you knew how to get in the back door.
Yeah, sure. Yes.
We found out how to sneak into a few
outdoor venues. Is that how you saw Tony, Tony,
Tony? Yes, exactly.
I stuck it to the Orange County Fair.
Yeah, but
I have the weird opinion
that I accidentally listened to a
newer Blink-182 song recently
and thought I liked it a lot more than anything I had ever heard them record.
But yeah, I do not like that.
I think they seem like nice guys.
I like that the one is into UFO research now.
Do they seem like nice guys?
I think so.
Is one of the Blink-182 guys really into rap music?
The drummer maybe?
Yeah, he popped up in a bunch of stuff.
Did he make like a rap album maybe? I don't know if he made a rap album. he popped up in a bunch of stuff. Did he make a rap album, maybe?
I don't know if he made a rap album.
A solo album with a bunch of rappers on it?
There was this weird viral video
where he was drumming to that Soulja Boy
song and everybody was watching it.
I think if you need a famous drummer,
that's who you call. He's been in
rap videos, too.
When you say Soulja Boy, are you referring specifically
to Soulja Boy Tell Em? SouljaBoyTellEm.com. One you say Soldier Boy, are you referring specifically to Soldier Boy Tellem? SoldierBoyTellem.com
Okay. One of my favorite
entertainers. Got it. Yeah.
He really is an entertainer too.
He's a man. Tip to toe.
So funny. This guy
has got everything.
So funny. He has
everything. Look out Danny K.
Yeah. He can rap.
He can sing. He can sing.
He can dance.
He's got jokes.
He can Superman that hoe.
Superman that hoe.
Isn't Soulja Boy bad?
No.
Is that what you're joking about?
No, Soulja Boy actually is...
People say...
I'm going to take this time right now.
Okay, sleep.
I am not actually that bad.
There's a few songs that are incredible.
Turn My Swag On is an
incredible song. Anybody
would like it. Also,
I say the lesser known
Kiss Me Through the Phone, also
a banger. Very
influential
in the way that he related
to his fan base and still to
this day and a very
beloved for his abundant energy and antics
and antics he's always having antics yeah constant antics he just claims that everybody he made
everybody's style which is really funny to do yeah he's great man he loves the internet yeah
what's uh what are the what are the numbers on that? It says a lot like my uncle.
Just a quick info here.
Travis Barker did have an album with a lot of rappers, including Tech N9ne.
Oh, that's fun.
There you go.
Tech N9ne, great rapper.
Yeah.
Don't necessarily want to listen to a Tech N9ne album, but very, very skilled.
Not since San Celic.
Yeah. So Blink-182 was a 28.
28 people.
So who's, is that closest to 15?
Honestly, I actually, Tony, Tony, Tony with four is 11 away.
It's closer.
So I think that's a little bit closer.
Thorne wins again.
Well done.
Wow.
Well done.
Wow, that is a true thrill. That was a lot of fun. A. Well done. Wow. That is a true thrill.
That was a lot of fun.
A lot of fun.
To be embarrassed in that way and yet emerge triumphant somehow.
No, but I mean, I think that was the secret of that round was to like,
something that was common, but you know, but not.
Anyway, yeah.
It was common in that.
But Jordan, Baron picked a restaurant in Vancouver.
Right. But a world
famous restaurant. Apparently so.
Apparently so.
I think our audience is mostly
Canadian foodies. Wow.
God bless them. God bless
them, sure. They should go to that Ethiopian place I ate at.
It was hecka good. Yeah. What's it
called? It was right by High Life
Records. I remember that. I went to a was written by High Life Records. I remember that.
I went to a record store called High Life Records.
Did they have Ethiopian beer?
Well, I don't drink beer, so they probably did, but I didn't.
Are the Ethiopians known for their beer?
They got some good beer.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Cool.
I got to be careful with the Ethiopian restaurant.
I don't know if this is a situation for you, but you know that injera bread?
Oh, I love it.
Sure.
They keep bringing it to you, and I'll eat it until they stop bringing it, but they don't stop bringing bread. Oh, I love it. Sure. They keep bringing it to you,
and I'll eat it until they stop bringing it,
but they don't stop bringing it.
Oh, yeah. I eat it until there's injera bread sort of, like,
backed up in my throat because there's no further down for it to go.
And then you feel like it?
Yeah, I'm, like, kind of spongy.
Spongy.
You're pushing forth.
I like it.
Trying to get that injera in there.
David's doing a sponge man dance now, which is very good.
Guys, either of you guys got any tibs?
I could really go for some tibs right now.
I don't know what that is.
I could really fuck up some tibs.
What's a tib?
That's fucking Ethiopian shit.
Little pieces of meat with little peppers and stuff.
Oh, I didn't know that that was-
And you eat it with your injure.
Go on.
I'd love to eat some tibs right now.
I got some in my pocket.
God, I wish I had
Give me those pocket Tibbs baby
Give me those pocket Tibbs
I didn't know what they were
But they are now
Filled with
They are in my pocket
Oh you mean that thing
I have on my person
At all times
That's them
Okay
So yeah
So next week
Are we doing
Slobs versus Slobs
Man
Slobs versus Juggalos.
Yeah.
I mean, we have to define our terms here.
So, slobs has to mean people born in or living in Slavic countries.
Okay.
Which one do you think is right?
Both?
Yeah.
I mean, if you live somewhere else now, but you were born in a Slavic country.
Yeah.
But not if you just lived in a Slavic country for a time.
If you moved there, yeah.
I think one of our regulars on Reddit, I can't remember who, but I'll just say it's Law3per.
One of our regulars on Reddit lived in a Slavic country for a time.
Slovakia, maybe.
Okay.
Something like that.
I couldn't tell you.
Czech Republic could be.
And yeah, so how do we...
I mean, I think you know if you're a juggalo.
I think you're proud.
Oh, yeah.
So yeah, I don't think we need to like...
If you own a t-shirt, you have a tattoo.
That's a man tattoo.
Not if you've gone to the thing, ironically, that doesn't count.
Right.
But if you...
And you don't... I think in this you and you don't i think in this
case you don't have to be like a fully active juggalo like if you went through what does that
mean a genuine well once a juggalo always yeah yeah if you had a they're a lot like the jets
in that sense if you have a juggalo all the way um if yeah i mean i think you know i mean if you
know if you went through the phase.
I mean, if for some reason you, like, now hate that phase and you wish it hadn't happened.
I guess that doesn't count.
Maybe you don't call it.
What if you've just gone to the gathering of the Juggalos?
Because I feel like we're going to get a lot of those calls.
Like, I went, but I don't really listen to the Juggalos, or, you know, Insane Clown Posse.
I went because I'm more of a Tila Tequila fan.
Sure, yeah.
I don't think it should be if you want.
I've been to Staples Center.
I'm not LeBron, you know?
That's true.
Yeah.
That's a good point.
Yeah.
I mean, I think we can let the Juggalos self-police in this situation.
I've been doing it for years.
I think they know.
Can I just mention I've been to Staples Center and I am Vlade Divac?
All right.
That's fair.
I thought that.
Yeah.
I've been to Staples Center and I am a bridal expo.
It's more of the L.A. Convention Center.
Yeah.
I love it.
Who cares?
I love it.
Oh, so, okay.
I think it's going to be, I think the Juggalos are going to run away with it.
You think so?
Yeah.
I mean, I think we've established I'm bad at this.
Right.
I've lost every single one except one.
Yeah.
But I think this is going to be my round.
Yeah, Juggalos.
Juggalos.
Maybe that's what you think.
Do you think it's Slavic?
For the 15?
Is that the number again?
I mean, I think if we had expanded it out to Slavs as a self-identity category, I think that would run away with it.
I think having reasonably restricted it to people either born in Slavic countries or who currently live in Slavic countries,
I think Juggalos is going to win.
I think Juggalos is going to take this thing,
even though you excluded people who now hate their Juggalo period.
Like, I think if you, like, if you said, like, I'm 37 years old.
I'm a grown man.
When a Roots album comes out, I'm not there at the record store on the first day to buy it.
Like I was when I was 19.
For like Illidale, what album would you go the first day to buy?
Things Fall Apart I bought the first day.
And then you stopped at Phrenology.
For sure.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was not that much of a Phrenology.
Evolution of a Roots fan.
But not that they don't, they're still making very excellent music.
And I don't listen to it, but I don't think of myself that way.
But that's still, you know, that's just personal development.
That's just, you know, the Juggalos, you're 37, you can't party the same way you could when you were 19.
Well, see, that's the thing.
I think that's reasonable.
It's more of a lifestyle than a party.
You know, it's a family.
Right, yeah.
You can't outgrow your family.
Exactly.
So, like, I think myself-
No matter how much dropa your papa has.
Even though I'm not at the record store buying that Common album or that Roots album on the
first day, I still think there's a part of me that thinks of myself as an okay player.
Okay.
But, and I think if we're allowing that for Juggalos, which I think is totally reasonable, I think you might be right that Juggalos might take this.
Yeah.
Well, David, what do you think?
I stopped listening to Common After B.
Yeah, that almost kind of whacked me.
Yeah.
Yeah, there was an album that came out that was really critically acclaimed like three years ago.
And I listened to it and I was like, hmm.
Oh, man.
I can't really with that guy anymore.
I'll take John Wick, too.
Thank you.
Yeah.
What do I think about who's good?
I wish him the best.
I think he's a good dude.
Yeah, he's fantastic, I'm sure.

I just assumed it was for erotic reasons.
Maybe it's just because you hate the pineapple.
It's good cardio.
Oh, it's a fitness thing.
Sure, yeah, yeah.
All the way from the X-ers.
Fitness pineapple in my mouth.
The X-ers of Denver, Colorado.

Who's your top Colorado Rocky?
Of all time?
Yeah.
Todd Helton.
That's a good choice.
I mean, it's probably one of the best.
Yeah.
I think it's the most reasonable choice, right?
Yeah.
Who's your favorite Colorado Rocky?
I'm going to go
with the big cat,
Andres Galarraga.
All right.
Wait, no.
I'm changing it
to Larry Walker.
Changed it to Larry Walker.
That's fair.
They're a new team.
John VanderWaal.
No, that's not true.
No.
Fair enough.
Fair enough.
He caught me.
That's fine.
He caught me.
I don't know. I don't know what you guys are talking about. We're talking about the Colorado Rockies. Sure. It's fine. He caught me, you know? Well, I don't know.
I don't know what you guys are talking about.
We're talking about the Colorado Rockies.
It's a hitter's park, they say.
You know, it's a hitter's park.
Sure.
The altitude has something to do with it, maybe?
The altitude?
What is this?
Arnold Schwarzenegger's house?
Sounds like my Friday night.
Famous cigar aficionado, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
He loves cigars. Oh, is that true? Yeah. Oh. Yeah, he's from the magazine Cig cigar aficionado, Arnold Schwarzenegger. He loves cigars.
Oh, is that true?
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, he's from the magazine Cigar Aficionado.
It was a weird time in culture where you wanted to be photographed on a cigar magazine.
God.
Like 1995 or 6.
That was like the height of it?
Yeah, you knew you were making it in Hollywood when you were either smoking a cigar on the cover of a magazine or playing rock harmonica in like a vanity band.
Ooh, I like that.
I want to play rock harmonica in Vanity 6.
That would be great.
Oh, shit.
I think they probably need one.
They probably need it.
Right?
God.
Fuck yeah.
That'd be really fun, man.
Honestly, I'd play rock harmonica in Morris Day in the Time.
Oh, yeah.
I'd play rock harmonica in The Family.
Could I play rock harmonica in Cameo?
Yeah.
Do we have space for that?
Please, yes.
I'd wear a red codpiece like that guy in that video.
Oh, shit, yeah.
And then have one of those things over your head so you could do it hands-free.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Because then my hands are tamb. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Because then I'm, my hands are tambourining.
Oh, wow.
David, have you ever heard this Cameo song called Funk Funk?
No.
Okay.
So Cameo have these two careers.
Cameo is a great funk band.
They have a career as an 80s funk band.
Yeah.
With heavy synthesizer bass and stuff like that.
We're talking Word Up.
We're talking Candy.
Yeah.
And these are great, great.
They're a truly great band.
Great music.
Good music.
Alongside the Gap Band, great funk bands of the 80s.
But then they have this whole 70s career where they are a poor man's parliament.
And there's worse things to be.
There's worse things to be.
That's what everybody was doing.
They made some good music. But this song called Funk Funk, the conceit of the song is that they're like a Star Trek space crew that landed on a funk planet.
Oh, what?
And I want to say –
Is it that same singer singing about it?
Yes.
It's like the guys – maybe they call the one guy Dr. Spunk.
I can't remember what he's called, but there's this part where he says,
send a landing party to the planet's surface and set phasers to funk funk.
Yeah.
I like it.
Honestly, fucking funk funk jams.
That's not good.
For a Star Trek themed funk song that is obviously a complete facsimile of
better songs by parliament yeah it still kind of goes who wouldn't want to rip off the mothership
though i get it it's a crazy place does he do that voice that he does though that like no it's not he
doesn't do that voice as much as he does on, like, Candy or whatever. Oh, I love that voice.
It is a great funny voice.
Feel it when you walk.
Yeah.
That was a pretty solid.
Oh, yeah.
No, I'm familiar with the catalog.
What's the Cameo guy?
Is that Larry Blackman?
Does that sound right?
I don't know what his name is.
Maybe that's a guy from the Ohio Players or something.
Anyway, we have a lot of fun.
Four people.
Tony, Tony, Tony concert.
How many people out there have been to a Cameo concert?
Hell yeah.
Cameo versus Gab band.
Let's do this.
Oh, man.
I bet you.
I bet you.
How many people out there are in Mays?
How many people out there are Frankie Beverly?
And Mays.
Yeah.
Is there?
Are there?
Because it was, he extended that, right?
Like, Frankie Beverly was in Maze, right?
Yeah, but then at some point.
I think at some point the other guys in Maze were like, hey, Frankie, we're not getting a lot of gigs as Maze without Frankie Beverly.
Right.
I think that's pretty much what happened.
And he's like, okay, I'll come back if it's Maze and.
Maze and Frankie Beverly.
