All right, PKA, episode 335 with our guest Steve Hofstetter.
Kyle?
You got to give them what they want.
You got to give them what they want.
A few advertisements tonight, Casper, NatureBox, ZipRecruiter, and Bull & Branch.
You can check down in the description below any more details you want to get for them.
You want to check on them right now.
We're going to talk about them more later in the show.
We've got our good friend Steve back with us.
Steve, how's it been uh it's good you know i really enjoyed my time on the podcast it was great uh i decided i'd
be a little friendly and i went on your subreddit uh and i gotta say almost everyone i interacted
with was was a really really great person uh except for one piece of shit just one is the moderate one of the
moderators of your subreddit uh a total total piece of garbage uh like real like human excrement
his comment was that uh my forehead was too big that was what he was upset by so here let me give
you a big view you piece of garbage uh like like a real how do i describe him like a sewer person you know
like a person that doesn't fit anywhere else in society and so he's like i've got to live in the
sewer now and then he's like covered in urine and stink and by the way his username is a legitimate
rage just in case anyone thinks am i is he talking about me no i'm talking about that piece of shit
uh just like uh just like the like the kind of person that, you know, like in elementary school where, like, everyone kind of teases this one kid.
You know what I mean?
The kid that that kid teases, that's who I'm talking about.
Like, what kind of a garbage human goes, oh, his forehead was too big.
Fuck you, man.
You've never produced anything worthwhile.
All you do is comment on Reddit about
people's fucking appearances. You
garbage human. But hey, it's really good to see you guys.
I'm really happy to be back on the show.
At least it didn't get to you.
That's the most important thing.
I've actually been doing
forehead exercises ever since then
because I'm really self-conscious about it now.
I'm trying to make my forehead bigger, actually.
You don't skateboard, do you?
Dude, I...conscious about it now. I'm trying to make my forehead bigger, actually. You don't skateboard, do you? I'm trying to stretch it.
Dude, Kyle brought it up.
Kyle brought it up.
If I can say real quick about the user thing,
when you were saying before the show,
I want to go off on this guy,
I thought it was going to be like a big list.
I didn't know that it was going to be one thing that was so much more benign than I ever thought.
Well, because it's just such a dumb thing to say.
It's just like, what?
Like, really, that?
And look, I get it, all right?
I am progressive.
A lot of your listeners aren't.
If you want to have a problem with my politics, okay.
You know what?
You don't find me funny?
Absolutely.
That's great.
Comedy is subjective.
You have your opinion.
You don't like the way I dress?
Fine. That's still a choice. But my forehead. Fuck you. Like what a what a small little. Well, I guess in my case, it's enormous. But what like what a nonsensical thing to be concerned about. Like that is the critique of of art that like you listen to a pocket. I didn't like the one guest's forehead. I don't like anything about him. Well, on the bright side,
that means it must have been a pretty good show
if it went that low on the list
of something to bitch about, you know?
Well, you're talking about
something. I'm sure they won't
heckle you at all this time. They don't have nothing to say.
You set them straight.
What is it about this thing that got to you,
though? What is it that...
Oh, he froze for me.
Oh, I lost Steve as well.
Oh, that's a shame.
I'm losing you guys.
There you are. We're back now, I think.
Wait, what?
All right, I froze.
No, it's not anything I'm genuinely upset about.
I haven't been carrying this with me.
I was just thinking, hey, I'm going to be back on the show again.
Oh, I remember that
one piece of shit you complained about my forehead.
It's more than that.
I just think the thing that stood out to me, though,
is in the discussion,
in the group, a lot of people were like, hey,
how come the hosts never come on this board?
I really want them to
come on the subreddit. And I'm like, well,
it's because your mod is a piece of garbage.
It's just heat bill on that guy'm like well it's because your mod is a piece of garbage it's just heaping all on that guy yeah it's because your mod is is a horrible person and like what do you
expect you expect like you expect the guys to come and interact with you when you treat other people
like shit like no just be a be a kind human being and then maybe it'll it'll go a little bit better
for you but like seriously it's so good to be back. I actually have...
There have been so many wonderful PKA fans
who have come up to me at shows,
who have been following me online.
I probably hear more positive feedback
from like, hey, saw you on PKA,
and now I'm a fan,
than I did when I was on Rogan or Corolla.
Yeah, we have a very cool fan base.
And they've been around for so many years and they kind of get
what we're doing here you know if someone hops
on board last year or something
then they might enjoy our content and what we do but if someone
has been with us for like 7
8 years which is entirely possible
at this point they understand what
we're doing here and what it's all about and so like
if we have an ad
read we do well if they go and buy that mattress
they're in the comments like yeah i love your thing thanks to pka thank you so much to pka pka sells mattresses
you know they're they're letting our advertisers know that like we sell fucking mattresses and
you know by the same and then the same way if we they see a guest out there they're like hey yeah
pka introduced me to you just know just know yeah what i love though is i love that like
the divisiveness of it.
Like, the comments where people are like, hey, you're one of the best guests they ever had.
And people are like, this was the worst show I've ever seen.
It's very cool.
And I'm just like, okay, cool.
Yeah, you know what?
I'm fine with that.
Our fan base has really invested.
Not so much in the recent days, but last week, especially maybe this week.
We've been doing this fitness thing.
And instead of working out, working out, I've been playing.
I bought a skateboard and I went skating.
I used to skate a lot in my younger days.
I wasn't great at it or anything, but I was competent.
And oh my God, they went off on the age thing.
Skateboarding is just age inappropriate for me at this point.
Thread after thread. And it's not like someone said something right someone says something and
it gets hundreds of upvotes you know like everyone who went there that day decided they loved this
about the subreddit and they're just fucking rip it and and in my head it's very much like
making fun of a fat person at the gym, right? Everyone says
it's absolutely criminal to
laugh at a fat girl on a treadmill,
right? But everyone seems to think
it's fucking awesome to laugh at an old
guy on a skateboard, right?
That's hilarious.
I can't believe you're drawing this parallel.
That is...
Ah, man.
Yeah, that's you, Woody.
That's what's That's you.
You're that morbidly obese person who got brave and went into Planet Fitness
and looked away from the free pizza and got on there,
and despite the audible jiggling and slapping of his folds, he storms ahead.
That's you.
On a skateboard.
Skateboarding in your driveway going, those internet problems.
I love the idea that you you compare like
trying trying to like not fall off your skateboard as the same as like really bettering yourself as
a person that's what i'm doing that's why i'm not skating because i want to skate i'm skating
because i'm too fat that's the whole point so are you skating on like a giant board or yeah i got along i got along but
it is oversized it's a surfboard with wheels nearly yeah i i uh but i'm getting better at it
i went out today i go out with my son he's on a bike i'm on the skateboard and we just rip around
the neighborhoods wait wait wait so then you're're going around with kids and you're on a skateboard. Well, I gotta
fit in.
There aren't a lot of adults out there to skateboard
with.
That way they have someone to look up to.
The bicycle and
skateboard, is there any possibility of
putting a rope on the bicycle and
Colin pulling you a bit?
Oh.
It's been... So it's funny you mention bit. Oh, it's been like a jet.
So it's funny you mentioned that.
Not today, but the session before this, I pushed it too hard.
I was like, you know what?
I should go back to the house now.
Nah, fuck that.
I'm going to keep pushing on.
And I go further.
I go, I don't know, another three quarters.
Curfew's not for another half hour anyway.
I go like another three quarter mile.
So that we
understand what was your push like are are we talking like you went three more miles are you
talking like two more houses no it was another lap around the house it probably was three quarters
of a mile or something like that so uh um anyway now i'm headed up this the my driveway is the
toughest part of it it's kind of longish and it's uphill and it's not that smooth.
So when you push, you instantly had to push again.
I'm fucking exhausted and dehydrated.
I didn't bring any water.
And I'm just like, at one point I grabbed Colin by the belt and I had him tow me to the, across the finish line.
You know, does any part of this skateboarding and bicycling stuff does any part of it make you
think hey i paved this driveway out here i'd have my own little skate park do you want me to build
a skate park i don't want you to build i think an rc park is a better investment to be focusing
on some sort of rc car racing track in the backyard you gotta get that project fixed and
then the pool and then you can put in the skate park like one thing at a time i'm not a skateboarder but i like i was thinking about this
as far as like the exercise part does skateboarding get easier and easier the better you get at it
yeah or it does i'm finding that already and i think that's true with a lot of sports right like
like lifting weights i think that in that first two, you get a lot of gains that aren't necessarily strength.
They're technique.
And now I'm finding I can go farther and do more with the same amount of effort that I spent before.
I just picture him like Kevin Spacey in American Beauty.
Like just going around the neighborhood.
You do what you can.
By the way,
I'm also totally shitting on you
for doing this, even though I don't work out
at all. American Beauty just cost me
$20,000.
There's a scene
in there. The mom is like a real estate
salesman.
She's trying to sell
a pool and it's a lagoon pool now I I never knew anything about pools but I
just I'm just buying one now and a lagoon is a shape of a pool it kind of
looks like a penis like it's got two like three circles sort of stacked and
she's selling it as a lagoon pool and the buyers are like what like when I
hear lagoon I think plants and's like, what do you think these
are? And they're like, no, like, you know, waterfalls and flagstone. And, and she's like,
I have tiki torches in the garage. They're like, this is just a concrete hole, right? The next day,
the, the like whatever our pool architect guy comes out and we start finalizing some plans and I've got this concrete
hole in the ground which is exactly what I was going to buy
I was going to do what
they said
they hated and I'm like well
maybe I should upscale this a little bit
oh my god
you just
upgraded the pool because of Kevin Spacey
well his wife in the show
I actually think that that story was just trying to get us off the topic of him skateboarding.
I'm talking about skating for a while.
No, no.
He will talk about skateboarding longer than we want to talk about skateboarding.
No shame in my game.
So you spent an extra $20,000 to to make your pool better and now you found out
that it's not actually going to make it better no i think it'll be better concrete's more expensive
than you might guess and uh and we weren't doing just concrete now we're doing like i don't know
if it's pavers or stamped concrete or some sort of upscaled stained you know concrete that looks
like rocks we're getting quotes in but we definitely did a lot more than just a four-foot strip around the pool,
which was the original quote. You know that
meme where it's
like the first world problem
meme?
That was written for this.
Yes.
We do at least one or two of those a week.
Those are the kind of problems that I have, man.
I can't
lay enormous recliners on the sides of all
of my pool without having to walk
uncomfortably with my feet in front of each
other, without stepping into the pool
in the front. I want to be able to walk
big, girthy, swingy steps.
Two bags in hand. We were going to cross
grass on some of the travel ways
and that brings organics into the pool. Can't have
that. Organics?
You make it sound like that's like, oh, we can't have grass andics into the pool. Can't have that. You make it sound like that's like,
oh, we can't have grass and dirt
in the pool.
Couldn't solve that with a water hose, just saying.
Yeah.
We always hosed off.
Anyway, so
yeah, stupid
movie cost me $20,000.
I like to have a little shower
out by the pool anyway.
Every time I've been to a pool that I was
like, ah, this is really nice, there was a little shower
the same way there's a little shower at the beach.
We're doing that. That's always my favorite
part of the beach, by the way. The outdoor
shower you get to take that finally cleanses
the beach off of you.
And the knowledge that there's a
real shower that will further cleanse you
of the bullshit you just underwent for someone else's benefit.
I hate the beach.
I was doing a gig in Cabo.
And, you know, so they put us up at this, like, really nice resort.
And there's a wedding there.
And the wedding is, like, in this place that overlooks the beach.
But there's one of those outdoor showers, like, right there.
And, like, the public, you know, still has to walk through.
Like, it's the, you know, it's the one passageway to the beach.
And I really wanted to just walk through and just start taking an outdoor shower in the middle of their wedding.
Just feel like, how's this going to work for you?
See, that's something that they would have hated in the moment.
But 20 years from now, they would have looked back with a lot of smiles about it.
Absolutely.
So you could have taken one for the team and made a scene knowing like,
I'm making, I'm getting, I'm making memories.
What if I was, what if, what if I did it naked though?
I think that would be even better.
Because you know what?
Not just making memories for the bride and the groom.
Think about all the people sitting there who burned vacation days so they could
indulge these fuckers who are like, do you think, you know,
Susan and Price, you know, care enough to come?
Do you think he'll spend four days on us?
Well, let's guilt them anyway.
They sent that off. You're making memories for that guy
who doesn't even want to be there.
I think out of courtesy to the groom, you should just take a cold shower
though, so you don't show them up.
Just saying.
Also, I'm a pale man.
I think I would have
blinded people with the reflection of the sun
off of me, so that would have been dangerous. Ah, yes. would have blinded people with the reflection of the sun off of me so that would have been dangerous ah yes also get your wedding the
fuck out of my hotel like i'm i'm i'm hanging out here you guys are in the way i had a walk through
i had a walk through there they had a couple weddings there and like there's one that was
like on the way to like i went to the gift shop to get sunblock because again pale and it was
kind of annoying to like have – I'm used to weddings.
But weddings at a hotel, the space shouldn't be where other guests have to walk through.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, sure.
I remember 90 seconds ago when you were throwing salt in my first world problems.
Tell me more about the wedding that inconvenienced you in Cabo.
We need a voting system.
What's the less big deal?
Your pool not having enough room for a full-size recliner
or Steve having to deal with looking at vacationing wedding people.
First of all, that was like three minutes ago.
Second of all, Cabo is not exactly first world.
I was first world in a place.
No, that's a fair loophole oh yeah yeah there's a straight up first it was like a first and a half well cabo i guess like the part the
resort part is first world but then you go like outside of it and like that's like fourth or fifth
that's how it always is to those resorts. Yeah. I wish that they would have, maybe this is like a first world problem that's kind
of benevolent.
Like I wish that it, you know how you'll go to Mexico or something and stay in a really
nice hotel and literally, like if you were to leap off of your balcony you could make
it and land on one of the fucking favela, you know, corrugated tin roofs over there,
like that close.
Interesting.
I stay in better hotels, but go ahead.
They do exist.
I'm describing the one I was in the Dominican Republic
eight years ago. I'm just being a dick.
I've caught on.
Those ones
where you can jump on there.
I wish that...
I know the rest of the country has to be poor and shitty
because it's just poor and shitty, but could you at least
make the few neighborhoods of that country surrounding our hotels a little nicer,
so that we could go out on the porch at night and enjoy your beautiful scenery without feeling so guilty?
Alright, we have a winner.
I was just thinking the same thing.
What if they painted a big mosaic between you and the poverty,
and it was just a big mosaic of like a beautiful forest in a lagoon over there.
Take the resources you would use to improve the community and make a mosaic for me.
A wall.
We could have a wall.
A wall.
Well, it's attached to a big wall.
I thought that was just.
What if they did it on a green screen so that we could all make our own backgrounds according to what we liked as long as it wasn't for people. That's what I think heaven is like if there is a heaven.
Graffiti.
Yeah.
If there is a heaven, it would have to be that each person gets their own individual heaven
for it to be any fun at all, right?
Because if we're all just walking around in some big palace of gold,
there's some fucker out there with some irrational fear of gold, right?
He doesn't want to go to a city of, the streets are gold too.
Like, there are people who would have zero
interest in that you know and i'm one of them like if everything's made out of gold then it's just
glare all the time you need some blue blockers or something i imagine it's pretty bright you're in
the clouds anyway so each individual person needs their own specific Mormonism is the one you're
looking for i think right i'm going somewhere with this i wanted to know what your specific
heaven was that's you know like if you get to pick your afterlife that will, of course,
last forever, infinitely, what's your afterlife?
You get there, and let's just say St. Peter himself is there, and he's got his iPad
because it's modern times. He doesn't have that quill anymore and that big parchment.
He's like, what do you want?
And God's over there sitting on a throne. Am i understanding correctly that in your heaven there are no jews
oh no of course not just making sure uh my what what would mine be uh mine would be um the mets
would not lose as much as they do now they would still lose some because you got to keep it
interesting you know but it wouldn't be as...
I wouldn't want them winning all the time. That's boring,
Yankee fans.
Without darkness, there can be no light.
Exactly. You need some darkness.
I would want
tons of comedy shows
all over the place. You could just go up and have great
crowds.
Oh, that would be... So every night
you go out and you're, don't know madison square garden
fucking sold out and you look in the front row and it's like it's like all the people you most
want to impress and you just kill every night is is that heaven uh yeah but even that i think
would get boring like that's the thing like heaven heaven for me i like a challenge i like things being changed up you know so what if
every night it's a different special you've got to write a new one every day it's heaven so time
you can just pause and take as much time as you want but every day you're having to come up with
a new special or you go to hell oh that stakes are high now you're on your eight actually no
stakes couldn't be lower if you can just pause time well you're on yourth special in a row. Actually no, stakes couldn't be lower if you could just pause time. Well, you're on your 8th special in a row and the 7th special took you 400 years.
Well this is now, this heaven has become its own version of hell.
You're starting to wonder, what do they do in hell?
You're starting to wonder.
That's the interesting hell, being forced to create your own heaven.
Right? Because no matter what you create
is gonna be hell because like even if steve did the whole special thing every night he'd go out
there and be like hey hey you know this that and the other thing and they'd all like laugh
uproariously and you'd have to look at them and go you're kind of just like a mannequin in my
fever dream you're not really laughing you don't have a choice like you don't have your own heaven
because you're not real all my friends are out there with their own world i got bored so i'm on like this is the best tour i've ever done
like things really exploded me for in the past for me in the past year i'm guessing it's because
of my appearance on pka i was gonna say that yeah clearly um but it's it's been amazing and you know
different city every night most of the shows are sold out it's been incredible you know lines of people afterward it's been i i've been i felt really like lucky and and and wonderful to you know i would use the
word blessed if idiots on instagram didn't hashtag it all the time but like just i i felt amazing
but then the last night i was so tired and like i was like i can't go up and do my material again
i can't you know and and i'm like wait this
is the thing i've been trying to do for 15 years and i have it now i'm like i'm tired and bored
so it's i think i think even in heaven we would get that way you would yeah it's just like you
can like set your anchor point higher yeah you know like if you had to like go back to the
beginning of where you were in comedy right now, just performing for six people at a graduation party, or I don't know what you did to start, probably not that bad.
Six would have been, speaking of blessed, six would have been amazing.
My worst crowd was two people in a snowstorm, and one of them was my dad.
two people in a snowstorm and one of them was my dad. But by the way,
right now, right now,
there are people listening to this
who are going, what a piece of shit,
bragging about his tour. Like, not even
getting why I brought it up. So,
that's also hell.
A lot of hell.
We might
already just be, like, non-playable
characters in someone else's hell. Like,
this could be someone's hell we're living in right now we're not even real
you mean like someone having to listen to this yeah exactly yeah what if you
are an NPC Kyle like what if one day someone comes up to you and they ask you
a question you have to say oh yeah that's down there beyond the river and
then like the next day you wake up and the day
feels oddly familiar. And then you get
to that same place and that person comes up and
asks you a different question, but it wasn't the
right different question. So you have to say,
oh, it's right down over there by the river.
And that's your NPC hell.
Where you just have to hope that the PC
asks the right question. My knee's been injured
for weeks, right? Could I have taken an arrow?
What game would you asked the right question. My knee's been injured for weeks, right? For years. Could I have taken an arrow? What of...
What game would you
most want to be a non-playable character in?
Fuck you all. That's funny shit
right there. Fuck every one of you.
Dead Space, smile lightly.
I think Dead Space
is one of the games that you would most
not want to be one of the non-playable characters
because I don't think any of the non-playable
characters survives, and that is to say that none of the non-playable characters because I don't think any of the non-playable characters survives
and that is to say that none of the
non-playable characters don't
have their soul taken by
some sort of alien demonic force
and then have their bodies mutated into
some sort of hideous stabbing
creature or turn into a baby
with Medusa horns or something like that.
All of the NPCs in
Dead Space, there are no
winners. They all get mutated
and have their souls taken.
Grand Theft Auto is kind of like that too.
There are survivors though. There's always that pimp
that you see down the street with a couple of
hoes. And I mean, if you don't kill every
hooker, then they're out there getting laid
and getting paid.
Presumably.
But they're just chum.
They're there for target practice.
That's all of us here, right?
Imagine the stress and the panic
you would walk through every day
in Sim World as an NPC.
Every single car isn't just another car of a person.
It's any of them, you know,
hell, most of them
are complete sociopaths that take glee in killing you.
So, like, you couldn't...
And the whole time you're having to pretend like it's just a normal day.
And you're going to Jamba Juice.
So, that's a pretty good one, too.
Not as bad as Dead Space, though.
Because I saw a clip in Dead Space where the NPC picked up a gremlin, like, alien baby.
And it exploded her into a million bits.
And so that...
I'd rather just get hit by a car.
What about, like, Rocket League would be good. Because then you're just watching a game. That's rather just get hit by a car. What about Rocket League would be good
because then you're just watching a game?
Yeah, any sports games.
Forever.
Yeah, the same match forever.
Yeah.
It's not good to be a hell of a character.
There are some people on Twitch
who do that voluntarily.
I never got into watching Twitch. Do any of you watch
Twitch? Not lately, but I have.
Yeah, I watch it sometimes.
I've been watching some people play Battlegrounds,
that Battle Royale game that I've been
playing a ton of. I fucking love that game.
Getting better and better at it. It's really
really fun. I've been playing with some fans.
That game's a lot of fun. I'm not going to
shift into talking about that, but yeah. I've been
watching some people play that on Twitch.
More and more, I realize it doesn't matter at all.
I want the player to be above average,
but really, that
shouldn't be hard, right?
Most people who play a game a lot are
above average at it. You don't need to be top 5%
in my mind. It's all about your
entertainment value. This game might
be the exception, because it's
like the Hunger Games, of course, so if you're not top entertainment value with this this game might be the exception because it's a it's a like um it's
like the hunger games of course so if you're not top five percent then you don't get to the showdown
at the end you don't get to like the the last phase of the game when there's like five people
left and we're playing in a circle the size of like a barn and everybody's just in corners like
like hiding with shotguns and rifles and stuff and crouching in plants with ghillie suits. Have you won again yet?
I've only won one solo.
I think I've played second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, all that shit like multiple times.
But I've only won one.
It's very hard.
It's like my grades.
I got all the grades.
Yeah.
All the grades that they offered, I brought some of those home.
Yeah.
Oh, did you see that
video of the Turkish bodyguards
just going ham on those protesters?
Yes. That was fucked up.
Is it a funny video?
No.
Look, it all depends on your perspective.
If you're a Turkish
bodyguard,
that video's hilarious.
You're flexing somewhere like,
that is how we do shit. Tell me me if i'm gonna lay out the backstory and tell me if i have this wrong
from what i understand the turkish president was traveling in washington dc there were protesters
there unhappy with his presidency or the way he runs shit or who knows what. And he told the D.C. police to, like, silence the protesters
or beat them up or whatever it takes.
And the D.C. police were like, no, that's not how we do things here.
So he sent out his own bodyguards slash thugs to beat up American citizens.
And they were, like, kicking him in the face while they're laying down.
How bad? It's hard to ever know.
Because, like, when this stuff gets talked about and they say beat up beat up like was it a couple punches or were there some severe people yeah
can you find one or do we hunt for it yeah i'm getting it i also like that you're like look look
look if he if if he if they kicked him a couple of times it's perfectly okay i just get aggravated
when i hear stuff on the news where it's like huge violence at a rally
and like you click the video and it's like three people with sticks and you're like huge violence
like i was expecting a braveheart style brawl here and i'm really disappointed here's a question so
this uh this was a debate that uh like unraveled on uh on one of my reddit posts because i posted a thing about how i had a video
that like i had a heckler video that went viral and it really you know changed my life and you
know changed my career and then it got animated like animated james who's a big youtube guy
uh animated it and so i posted that and there was like a debate over whether or not that my title
was clickbait and so someone was saying that like
anything that gets you to click on a video is clickbait and then a rational person in my opinion
at least was saying that no it's clickbait when they get you to click on a video with a sensational
title that doesn't deliver but if the video is actually the thing that happened then it's not
clickbait yeah if a video is man fights off three crocodiles and it's a video
of a man actually fighting off three crocodiles before being killed undoubtedly then that's not
but if it's three like little baby crocodiles and it's like one of them like nips his finger
and his girlfriend's poorly filming and he goes oh and then it's like oh you you know what you did
you know what we expected and we saw three alligators in the thumbnail because you didn't
put the little ones in there you put the the the now ones the real ones that we want to see
Or that would be cool where they zoomed in on the little ones to make them look like the big ones
Ah, okay. I got respect clickbait hot water last week
I am so I was flying my paramotor if you don't know what that is. It's a like the fabric
Oh, I will get to that in a moment. I was
It's a little click baity of it. I thought we'll get to the get to that in a moment. I was flying my... Oh, okay.
It's a little cliffhanger, but I thought...
In a minute, we'll get to the title.
Yeah, we will.
So I was flying my paramotor.
If you don't know what that is, it's got the fabric wing like a paraglider, but a propeller
on your back so you can launch from flat ground.
Anyway, I clipped in wrong, right?
You're supposed to clip in.
It's very important.
Like a parachute, you know, you got to clip in properly.
My riser was twisted like 360 degrees and I didn't
catch it so I took off and in flight I realized that I had fucked up and I managed to land and
the the title was Woody's Gamertag cheats death which yeah that's completely clickbait
blister might have been more accurate right no? No, I was pretty scared.
At first I thought...
Woody's Gamertag cheats the system by titling it this.
Oh, Woody's Gamertag avoids sprain.
Yeah.
No, I wasn't sure if the wing would continue to fly well.
In hindsight, everything was fine.
But at the time, I was like, oh my god, Woody, take a breath. Chill. Don't panic.
Next time, make the title like,
I'm still bleeding as I post this.
The landing went poorly.
You should have put a picture of a severed hand.
Make it say, like, Woody's severe head injury,
but then have it misspelled a little bit
so they know you have a head injury.
Oh, nice. Like the end of Flowers for Algernon. I did an unintentional clickbait as well, was another thing spelled a little bit so later you know you have a head injury oh nice like the
end of flowers for aldrin off i i did an unintentional clickbait as well so um like it
i landed i fixed it i launched again and then i started doing acrobatics so the thumbnail was of
the acrobatics right so the title is like woody's gamer tag cheats death and you see like me fucking
upside down with like the Wing towards the ground and stuff
And I guess people thought the death defying
Part was related to the picture
And I get that idea right
Right I could see where they're coming from
Although in my head I just grabbed
The most interesting frame from the whole video
And use that as the thumbnail it's what I've been doing
For months now
And uh so but
Yeah so there's some
Thumbnail clickbaiting too i get some people
some people think that because my heckler series is titled heckler owned they're like oh that's
such clickbait i'm like what do you think the word owned you think i actually own the person
like i bought them like is that when you click so are we paying too much attention to the same
thing that all these other videos are called
because that's what people search when they want to see that.
Oh, the other thing that people seem to get on me for
is titling in third person
where they don't seem to understand that that's how everything gets titled.
Yeah.
It depends what it is, I think.
And it depends who you are and what kind of channel you're running too.
You've got a very personal channel. If it depends who you are and what kind of channel you're running, too. Like, you've got a very, like, personal channel.
If it's the first time you've ever done it, like,
Wing said that time when all of a sudden he uploaded a video that says,
fat guy accidentally bayonets his TV,
and all of his subscribers are like, fat guy?
You mean yourself?
Like, what the fuck are you talking about?
But, yeah, I guess that makes sense.
But also, but the idea that, like, it's not called, you know, it's called.
We'll never know what it's called.
I think we have him back now.
Okay, where did I lose you?
It's not called something.
Oh, well, it's definitely not called a frozen for like three minutes um it's not called i was saying it's not called the late show with me
it's called the late show with steven colbert like it's because you do that when you title things
and uh people don't people don't search for like if like if i just wrote you know i dealt with a
heckler like people no one searches i i
mean i guess some very vain people in case they think have i ever owned a heckler
no dice like none of these videos are me but yeah of course if someone's gonna google if you if
someone sees your sit and they're like hey i like steve hofstetter i'm gonna look him up
they're gonna google steve hofstetter or they're gonna, hey, I like Steve Hofstetter, I'm going to look him up, they're going to Google Steve Hofstetter or they're going to do that on YouTube.
And so, of course, you're going to put your own name in the title.
For the same reason that those people who have commentary or political channels on YouTube or whatever,
they'll always put their name at the end so that when you search their name, they all come up.
It's just what they all do.
And it's also funny because sometimes people will get on me for writing like,
they'll be like, you know what, you write comedian instead of your name. And I'm also funny because sometimes people will get on me for writing like – they'll be like, you know what?
You write comedian instead of your name.
And I'm like, because I'm not famous?
Like it's a – it's like me saying – it's me admitting that like I'm not big enough to do that.
It's me like – like that's a self-deprecating thing.
And then people will still get mad about that because people will get mad about everything.
They do.
Yeah. will still get mad about that, because people will get mad about everything. They do. Let's watch this video
of some people having their civil
liberties, well, trampled
upon, and their heads trampled upon.
I bet people are going to be mad about this on the internet.
I keep my civil liberties in my head,
actually. So what we do is we
queue up at zero, and I'll count it
down, and we'll press play together. So tell me when
you queued up at zero. Oh, wait, hold on.
He's the best counter.
I'm the best counter. I didn best counter i was supposed to do this sorry he knows all the
no forwards and backwards all right i've seen him go as high as 845. i mean at least
the comments are good uh highest rated turks showing the animals they really are fuck Turkey there is a reason Europeans hate them they are scum next another one fuck
America fucking two-faced country spelled wrong now YouTube comments are
always good for it's the number two second comment fucking Turkey monkeys I
went to school with some what a bunch of inbred, backward monkeys they were. By the transitive property,
Taylor should
like Turkish people.
Kyle, you can't read your own comment.
As I type that.
I've only ever known
one Turkish person, and he was a real
piece of shit. He absolutely was.
Super misogynistic,
and it was a cultural thing.
And just really like
sweaty and slimy and greasy and like he was like the a gross slavic fonzi with his slick back hair
and like like he was always like oh the women that love women that love me and i remember like he's
always like hitting on our reception he's like look I am beautiful. No. And like one of his eyes looked the wrong way and she's like
Always
while I am the prize.
His name was
Barack. He was the worst. All right. Let's
see what these. I like that they've all got suits
on because you've got like three
distinct groups of people here. Maybe four.
You've got the protesters holding up signs
protesting all the evils of Turkey. You've
got the Turkish bodyguards in their nice tailored suits.
And then you've got like DCPD, I guess, with like uniformed cops who occasionally get a whack in with a baton.
And then there's just people watching the shit show.
Before we cue it up, I just want to say I know one Turkish guy.
I went to college with him.
He was actually a Turkish pop star that then came to America for college.
And he was a sweetheart,
but we all used to play his songs
and make fun of them.
So that's all I know about Turkey.
You guys had very different Turkish experiences.
Ready, set, play.
All right.
All right, so this is the kind of
free-for-all I was imagining it would be.
Not disappointed by this.
There are 25 people
in, like, mixed combat
on asphalt and grass.
This guy took two good kicks to the face.
Maybe to the nose or the eye
on that second one.
I don't feel like the DC police are being harsh enough on the Turkish.
He just randomly kicked that woman.
They should be being way harsher on these fucking assholes.
Yeah, he sees a guy kick a protester in the face.
He's laying down on his side, like in the fetal position, gets kicked in the face,
and the cop holds him by the shoulders and says, no, no, no, and guides him away.
That's, that won't do.
Yeah, and then the cops carry away a guy that just got his ass kicked by a guy in a suit.
Heaven forbid a concealed carry guy kills one of these bodyguards here.
Oh, my God.
That would have been an interesting way to see it play out, where Erdogan or whatever had to be like, know you killed two of my men he's like well you broke our law and this shit happens here
thugs are treated very differently in america yeah the other people you're fighting have guns here
so good luck whoever whoever filmed this is a is a hero Right? He's got a stabilizer! Landscape. Yeah, this is good.
This guy has a stabilizer.
Like, usually, I'm accustomed to
world star hip-hop. You're lucky if, you know,
they're not, like, giving a hand job
with the same hand that's holding the camera.
This is quality filming.
I'm rewatching the first part again.
This is like,
honestly, this filming is incredible.
He's even panning around
the scene like it's like two lines clashing in a roman history channel show like he's even going
around this is well well done by oh yeah this is unbelievable though look at the callousness at
like 20 seconds when those assholes just walk by people on the ground and just like throw sidekicks to the back of their head yeah well yeah that's that's how
they go you know what upsets me about this so much it's that we lost right
like if anything I'm on Team America here I'm on the protesters and
undeniably they came in last place in this thing that's what bugs me i'd be cheering
this thing on if those bodyguards went into the crowd and the crowd beat the crap out of them
i'd be like yeah that's how we do have any of our good protesters there exactly we needed some
where was black lives matter i was just gonna say we needed those ferguson protesters
we don't have uh we don't have kurish Lives Matter as a movement.
That's the issue. I just feel like if we had our most violent
protesters here, we could have taken
those thugs on.
I just think that it would have been
better if we saw twice as
many DC cops there and see some
DC cops give them a good
bashing. And these DC cops look like
they enjoyed a donut or two, right?
Yeah, it looked more like TSA.
It looked more like TSA showed up.
I saw a 240-pound
black woman wearing at least
one size too small uniform
swinging a baton like it was her first time
she'd ever swung. And the person she hit turned around
like, hey, what'd you do that for?
And it was a protest before she hit anyone.
Can you imagine being a protester on the ground and kicked by one of these guards and you look up and you're like oh
oh thank god the police are here and some some morbidly obese five foot six woman is you know
her her gait is just hobbling towards you and you're just oh i'm gonna die in this field you
know like she's not gonna save me why it reminds me of uh you know all those
like basic shooter arcade games where like you accidentally shoot the civilian and like a red x
comes up like that's what those cops were doing basically like they were playing target practice
for the first time just as you said that protest was dragged away kyle yeah that was really shitty
john mccain was saying they should throw those guys out of the
country. And they absolutely should. I didn't
care for that at all. I don't think anyone who sees that is going to
care for that. That was fucked up. Never to return.
They get a lifetime ban.
You're not coming back. Yeah.
They will, though. But now the question
is, so that guy, I guess he was
seeing Trump, or he was going to the White House. I don't know if he was
specifically actually seeing Trump.
Should they have tossed him out and said
no, this ruined your whole visit?
The government.
I thought it was Erdogan.
I thought the president of that country was Erdogan.
They just had an attempted coup
in that country, didn't they?
They met with our government
to figure things out. Who knows what they were
talking about? Should we have
denied them that meeting?
Well, but then how does
the hotel in Turkey get built?
Fair point.
I mean, you gotta look at the business.
Always two steps ahead.
Was it like
right as Erdogan
was going to
talk to people in our government
that this was happening or was it
like as he's leaving he's like oh and and go cause some shit you know like I might have it wrong but
I watched Trump and Erdogan do their joint press conference next to each other at least like
like 99 sure that was Erdogan that and uh they both spoke and then uh then they left and then
I assumed that like Erdogan was leaving the building
or whatever, getting in his motorcade when all of this happened.
But what they're doing there seems entirely unnecessary.
It was almost like someone said a bad word,
and he was like, get him.
A protester offended whoever was in charge,
and he was like, go fuck them up.
And they just did.
With no consequence.
Which Lord of the Rings was Erdogan in?
There's two. There's two, right. Yeah, yeah. they just did with no consequence speed too which lord of the rings was erdogan in right yeah yeah okay he was the guy he was the guy whispering in the uh in the wizard's ear up
on top of that tower right i get you know i get those movies confused sometimes because some you
know like you're watching back to back it's hard to remember which one is which but i knew you know
erdogan was out there somewhere yeah yeah somewhere Yeah. Somewhere. Yeah. Arrow to the knee.
Yeah.
Don't laugh when he says it.
That'd be unfair.
I said it was a callback.
It was an inside joke.
No, but I think that that's,
I think that's one of those things that like,
there's a lot that we disagree on as Americans.
Hell, you know,
my politics are different than yours,
but like,
I think it's pretty easy for us to be like,
well, fuck these guys.
We don't like what happened.
I like when stuff like this happens,
that, like, you won't show this to anyone in the country
who's like, well, but you have to understand
what the Turkish dictator was thinking
as he sent his groupies to beat up unarmed people with megaphones.
You have to consider, as they're kicking with those sneaky James Bond
knife-in-the-toe shoes into elderly people's eye sockets
as they're getting back in their nice SUVs.
Everybody hates it, and it's great.
I will bet anything that there are people who watch that and be like,
well, you know, those protesters shouldn't open their mouths.
I bet there are people who think that.
Yeah, a lot of the turks apparently yeah and also uh your piece of shit mob i knew that was coming i was gonna say that joke and i'm like no i can't get like legitimate rage i think
he's done some timelines for the show i can't jump on this this bandwagon. The only people who approve are the people involved
and our mod.
That's good.
Man, I mean, it's not good
when people get beat up in public by
foreign officials, but
it is nice.
No, it's not good, but it is nice.
Hold on, hold on. If I knew that that's what this podcast was
going to be about i never would have agreed to come on i cannot stand behind that station
like yeah of course nobody likes to see that but for once it was really refreshing to watch a video
that was as this ties into the clickbait we were talking about that was the kind of fight i was
expecting when you guys were describing it. And it seems like we were
up on a streak of the last 12
disagreements and riots that I'd seen. I was like,
oh, fuck everybody who was talking
about this. Like, there's not a huge
battle scene or anything. But no, this is pretty good.
And it was also, you know, camera work
to be fair. I've seen worse Pepsi commercials.
Yeah, the camera work was amazing. man youtube comments are mean aren't they
oh my god it's such a roller coaster reading them
just while you read them i just figured I could comment too.
Alright, well.
It feels like it's time for our first ad read.
Alrighty.
While you do it, can I keep holding up this sign?
Actually, no. That's probably not a good idea.
Let's take that off and tell everyone about mattresses.
Maybe they don't care for that.

I love my Casper mattress.
Come on, people.
You know your mattress is old and needs to be replaced.
Women won't sleep with you.
Just do it.
You shouldn't.
And when you get one,
get a box spring, too, for your mattress
because women don't want to have sex
on a mattress on the floor.
That is something...
The amoebas fucking migrate too.
You want to be a couple of layers above the floor
so that the bacteria doesn't migrate up the bed
and get to you.
You don't know what's down there.
I sleep in a sex swing with a hammock in it.
I'd recommend a bed frame also
in addition to the box spring.
Because also a mattress on a box spring on the floor is kind of the same thing
as a mattress on a floor. Now who's first world?
Yes.
See, this time I didn't call that.
Are we done with the live read?
We're done with the mattress.
Now back to that.
Oh, man. You really dislike
that guy.
I wonder how this is going to go down.
Will he become a subreddit hero?
Or will they all make fun of him for getting made fun of?
I don't know.
But I do know this.
So a friend of mine.
Yeah?
I predict they're going to come after you real fucking hard now.
You poked the hornet's nest now.
They're like, ha-ha, that hurt his feelings?
Oh, man,
I've got opposition research here just waiting.
This won't cause this to happen, but
they could screenshot you into a roast me
session at this point.
Me making fun of him does not
show...
I don't know why you guys think that it means
it hurt my feelings or it means it made me
upset. It means I think it's funny that he's a piece of shit like it's it's not it's not like i'm
walking around be like that guy really got to me it's like no like i think it's hilarious that that
is what he took from the show i don't know if that distinction will be felt upon yeah you are
trying to redefine internet rules and i I'm telling you, these rules are set in stone.
Who owns on the internet
is not always well-received.
I think if I was
genuinely upset by it, I don't think I would have switched
to the I like mattresses sign.
I think that's probably...
You would have sat there and been like,
so they really don't want me to hold it up? Well, I don't care.
Cut out my video
because I'm not putting the sign down. You're i yeah you're definitely gonna have to like hold the thumb over i yeah i
i just like i don't know i i think it's i think it's silly and fun to to poke that stuff and i
also know i've been doing this long enough to know that i'm binary like people either like me or they
don't it's ones and zeros and that's fine. There are people right now who heard that and go,
what, he's making a math reference?
He thinks he's better than me?
Doesn't it say something for the year that we live in
that when you said, I'm binary,
I thought you were about to qualify what your sexuality was?
That's ridiculous.
No, no, no, I meant people's reaction to me as binary.
Yeah, no, but just the i just the
idea that like i i know i'm not for everyone and that's okay and none of us are and like the i i
have a theory like people who leave like one star reviews like who go like on restaurants like one
star what happened to you that's the worst possible thing that could happen like what happened waitress
smelled like shit it's like yeah okay what if your waitress smelled like shit and i put my dick in
your burger that would do it one star i'll give you more than a you would not get what i'm saying
is what i'm saying is leave yourself room for fewer stars there can always be a worse review
that is what that is what i'm saying I think that there are
some people who feel that to make themselves feel better they got to go
shit on something else and you know what it does work for some people and you
know I'm out here making fun of someone on the show but I'm doing it for you
know for the entertainment value of the show the fact is you know our you know
user slash legitimate rage who is i guess
an angry enough person to name himself that uh or herself maybe you're just pretending to be an
out-of-touch guy but the point is that like if you but if you go and actively try to hurt someone
like i've had people who have like heard me on a radio show who have like called an employer to
try to get me fired because like they didn't fired because they didn't think I was funny.
How is it this big of a deal to you?
Just fucking move on and it's fine.
If you don't like me, that's cool.
How many episodes do you guys have?
335.
335.
So I think that there's enough entertainment that if someone doesn't vibe with one guest who the fuck cares move on go
in this case they're down to 333
yeah that's true I've eaten up
two episodes or I was only on like
half the other episodes so it's fine
that's the way all the guests are though
with their reception like it's
and it's not just the PKA
fan base it's every podcast that I've ever
listened to like it's rare to read the comments the pka fan base it's every podcast that i've ever listened to like
it's rare to read the comments on any forum and see them be like oh this this guest was okay i
don't i don't really you know let him come back if he wants like that's even the way i feel like
the podcast that i listen to like i'll be like oh man joe rogan you know that guy is the worst i
listened to 20 minutes of it and it was trash like awful like i don't comment that because i got
things to do. But,
like, then if there's, like, a Jordan Peterson
one, which is really interesting, it'd be like,
uh, that was really good. Have
him back on, you know, next week and the week after.
That was really interesting. So I think that's just a natural
internet thing, is you get, like, a little taste
of something you like, and you just
keep picking at it. Or you get a teeny little taste
of something you hate, and you have to make sure everybody knows you hate it.
Yeah, that's all it is, Steve. You're like that bad
part of the pecan. They've had you, and they're just like, no, no, not that again.
That bad, giant, four-headed part of the pecan. I think it's not just the internet thing. I think
a lot of people, when they say, oh, well, it's the internet, but we're all human beings.
Every one of us behind a keyboard is a human. I mean, most of us are, I think.
I'd imagine so.
I don't know if you have any robot listeners.
I don't want to offend anyone who identifies as a robot.
Like I know that maybe that's a...
Any binary folks?
Yeah, actual binary folks.
Those are binary folks.
You know, I think it's a human thing
to want to feel important by
having an opinion and there are some people who understand that like you can have that opinion
and that's fine and talk about it with your friends but don't actively try to shit on somebody
and then there are some people who like that's their whole thing and so the reason i'm shitting
on legitimate rage is because i want him to know how that feels i want him to listen to this episode
and be like man that guy's really being mean to me.
And then realize, yeah, that's what you do.
Do you think he's going to have that reaction?
Because I think it's just as likely that he goes,
you know what?
I'm getting kind of famous.
I have succeeded beyond all expectations.
Vindicated is what he will think, I think.
Because it seems to be any time anyone is indulged
for any reason online, that seems to be any anytime anyone is indulged for any reason
online you know that seems to be the response but i've been hated on many times and never once has
a response from me made them go you know what woody strong point i've changed my mind that
you ever had that happen on twitter where you like have a discussion with someone about something
that you disagree with and at the end they'll go
like, oh, that was a pretty good point.
I've had it on Reddit.
It's almost confusing
because you're like,
no, no, you'll be
back with something.
Are you doubling back?
Are you talking to me like you're in the trap?
What are you doing to me?
You're acting like a reasonable person, yet here we are on the internet
so that can't be it.
Every now and then I find it most common on Reddit.
I've actually seen it on YouTube every now and then
as well which is weird because most...
Have you ever seen that YouTube comment filter where you can change everything
to say herp derp derp derp herp?
It's amazing.
It's really great.
It does happen.
That's the thing. There are you know, and, like, it does happen. And that's the thing.
There are reasonable people.
And, like I said, everyone behind that keyboard is a reasonable person.
So, look, legitimate rage, whoever you are and whatever sewer you live in.
No, like, right now, I'll stop making fun of you right now.
And I'll say that, like, you are a human being.
And you want to be treated like one.
And so do the same to other people.
Because the vast majority of people on your Reddit board were awesome, and were, like, really gracious, and were, you know, excited to interact with a guest.
And were just really, you know, genuinely good people.
And then there were, like, a couple of total shitheads who are the loudest.
So I wanted to make a sign for one.
But here, I'll change my sign now.
Here. heads who are the loudest so i wanted to make a sign for one but here i'll change my sign now here you should make for the next episode you're on make a sign of your favorite one of our users
oh that's a great idea nothing but praise positive things way it out yeah or or just
leave them be you know yeah
i can see kyle's face i was like is taylor's thing gonna work are people
gonna compete for favorite fan no of course not no no yeah you're right that would never possibly
give a fuck yeah yeah i'm not sure that sign got better
well i don't want to fuck him.
I mean, that's true.
Well, yeah, but I just felt like it was more almost a compliment the first time.
I don't know.
Okay, here, hold on.
The funniest thing in my head
that could possibly happen right now is that,
and I don't know this user at all,
but if he ended up posting a picture of himself online
and he has MS or something.
And you just look like the biggest, most brutal bully ever.
Oh, I thought you thought it would be funny for him that he had a debilitating disease.
No.
That's what you were laughing at.
The prospect of him having MS.
No, I'm saying it because it would be the Reddit post.
Steve Hofstetter bullies.
That's the best part.
I actually
love his forehead.
And it's degenerative, so, you know,
he's got to live with it.
It's the best.
No, I, like, genuinely,
I will say this genuinely, because
if he's still listening at this point, which I know
he is because we're talking about him and, you know, people have ego like that.
I will say that, like, I'm done making fun of him unless he takes another shot, in which case I will make many, many more signs because I find it amusing.
Many, many more signs to just hold up.
You're going to start your own video podcast, the Anti-Hist Podcast.
to just hold up, you're going to start your own video podcast.
The Anti-Hift Podcast.
No, I mean, I just think I wanted to set him forth as an example of just someone being petty.
Like, I think it's funny to me when people want to be heard so much
that they have to think of anything they could say that would hurt.
Yes, you pointed out
how petty he was being.
Yeah.
Shined a real light on it.
A giant spotlight on his pettiness.
That's the exact point.
Oh.
Wait, what's this thing that was...
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Don't read that out loud.
Don't read that out loud.
That is true.
That happened.
I can vouch for that.
I'm very glad you told me not to read that out loud because I was about to read that out loud.
The worst part is Woody did it to him.
He vaccinated him.
Oh, my God.
That's terrible.
None of that is true.
Kyle's attitude.
Of course it's not true.
It was true until Kyle joined in.
He just skateboarded on over to him,
pushed the plunger, and skateboarded away.
Good bumps.
Yeah, I...
But have you ever, like...
I mean, look, you guys do this a ton.
And when...
And clearly you guys used to be on the Reddit board,
or at least that's what they said,
and then you stopped going on.
So I'm curious, why is that? I you guys you guys are joking around that i'm being
petty about it but like shit like that does suck in the bible in the in the old testament god was
showing up left and right right like he was he's making his influence felt upon the world i already
love that we're gods in this i could not have asked for a better answer fit us into a different parable and make it right
I don't think you can
and after a while
man started
you know that 400 year period
after the ending of the writing
of the Old Testament before the
beginning of the new one those 400 years
were the Maccabee era
that's where I think the subreddit is
they're in that 400 years of, you know, keep the faith.
They'll be back.
They'll be back.
And they will.
Like, risen like a phoenix.
Like, Christ.
It's like the hate lasted eight days when they only thought it would last for one.
Pretty much.
Exactly like that.
I still pop in and comment on stuff over there every once in a while.
I just don't comment on internet things that much like
forums or articles or threads i don't know yeah what do you what are your what are your go-tos
what are your sites that you that you use every day reddit for sure like reddit or hockey and
a few other things and then espn you know i still go to yahoo sports and everyone like rips on yahoo like it's the worst thing in
the world and i it's just organized in a way where i i know where all the articles are
yeah i there i use reddit virtually everything um i watch cnn uh you know i was gonna say cnn
but i thought that i'd be like targeted as some sort of liberal Kool-Aid
drinker or something.
They've got a live app on Sling, and
it's easy. It's right there. So I watch
a lot of CNN.
I like Anderson Cooper.
YouTube is way bigger than any
other site that I use. Do you guys use YouTube
more than any other site? I do. Hours a day.
I definitely, definitely do. It blows all the
other ones out of me. What's funny is it'll be like,
oh, you know what?
I just don't really want to commit
to a 40-minute show right now,
like a TV show that's called an hour,
yet I'll watch six 15-minute YouTube videos.
Yeah.
I sat there.
It's really funny to watch history,
and you can clock my day.
It's like two hours of me watching Aculite or Jack Fraggs play Battlegrounds,
and then all of a sudden I needed to know how to make stuffed potatoes.
And I went through like four videos of that.
And then I wanted some fancy bacon, so there's like three videos on bacon.
And then there's like some sexy moments from some movies.
And then there's no more record for like 45 minutes because I shifted to a different website.
And then I'm back to the Battlegrounds again.
45 minutes.
Sexy moment from movies.
Taking your time.
Yeah, yeah.
You really want to edge it out there.
Make it a show.
Yeah.
That is – I don't have that kind of time.
I know.
I embarrass myself on Reddit.
I get the idea and I execute.
I surf through Reddit so much, Reddit runs out of content.
That's when you fucked up.
When you get to the bottom.
Yeah, well, it's on my phone.
You can get to the bottom of Reddit?
Yeah, after like 1,000 or 1,200 or so, it'll stop giving you new articles.
It just keeps going.
I've never gotten down to 1,200 before.
Oh, it's so bad.
You know, like a few pages and there's nothing good.
It's like, eh.
So when you're on R All, once you get past
like 150 articles
or so,
it's like Buzz Lightyear. Porn.
Porn everywhere.
There's just naked girls.
Every fifth article is
a naked girl of one.
And the good ones, too. The cream rises to the top.
But I go to the bottom, too.
There's a subreddit for that.
So...
Yes. There's a subreddit
for cream, Kyle, you were saying?
I just meant...
It's called cum sluts.
Oh, I'm familiar with It's called Cum Sluts. Oh, I thought you...
Oh, I'm familiar with that subreddit, yes.
I don't think he was talking about what he
puts on his potatoes.
I'm
understandable in thinking so, though, given the proximity
to potato discussion.
Yeah, that's true. Or what do you use those
potatoes for?
Or why are you judging what he puts on his potatoes?
What's that like
old internet meme of uh of what people did to like fuck uh like you fuck a bagel or you fuck
like a pineapple in the microwave or something do you remember hearing about that like that
that meme from years ago i think you and I have different internets. It's funny because I'm like, it's tomato.
It's heated tomato.
Like early in my marriage, my wife and I got a VHS tape on like how to be better at sex.
There was like a guys and a girls like dual tape thing.
Like a box set.
And each of you had a video cassette.
And it was like red and blue or did you have like the symbols a video cassette. And it was red and blue?
Or did you have the symbols for male and female?
It was pink and blue.
And one had a heart on it.
And I don't know what the blue one had.
A cock?
Probably.
And I remember we...
Wait, wait.
One had a heart on it.
And the other one had a heart on it.
Ah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, there you go.
And I remember we watched it.
And I read it had to be a better lover to a woman. And I remember we watched it and I read
it had to be a better lover to a woman
and she, not read, watched. And she watched
the opposite. And then at one point
I was like, you know, it just makes
sense that we watch the other person's tape.
Even though it seems gay to me to figure
out how to better handle a cock.
Let's see what they're teaching him there.
It was like Cosmo.
Like, hey, check this out.
Put a hole in the tomato, microwave it for like 40 seconds, jerk them off with that.
And I'm like, what?
Don't you ever.
I can just see, like, if you hadn't checked up on it, she comes walking toward you.
You're blindfolded, tied to the bed with a heart on.
And she's got a tomato she microwaved for two and a half minutes.
The water switch is at fucking thermite temperatures. to the bed with a hard-on, and she's got a tomato she microwaved for two and a half minutes, the floor of which
is at fucking thermite
temperatures, and as she slides
it over the head of her cock,
and you start screaming louder than she's ever heard
in her life, she's like, it really does work.
Do you think that those tapes
were made by, like, an angry
divorced woman? That's quite possible, yeah.
Who was just trying to, possible yeah fuck with married couples
that's so stupid i've seen so many of those cosmo things about like putting a donut over his dick
and eating it like don't put a donut on my dick like are you fucking crazy like first of all you
don't need a donut second of all doesn't even matter what she looks like that is is chewing
time they didn't factor into that it's not just you bite a donut and then
you eat the whole donut and then you're
quickly on to the blowjob no you're now
sitting there with your penis stuck
through a sugar dough ring as this
person slowly takes their time eating
the donut because it was never about
giving you head it was an excuse to eat
the donut the whole time and I'm worried
that now I've got sugar on my cock if
that cock goes in her pussy we could have a yeast infection scenario.
The cock donut in your coffee.
Like, make it a morning ritual.
Like, what is this?
That's absurd.
If I put sugar in a girl, that's, like, exactly how this happens.
That's how you ruin a game.
That's absolutely true, Woody.
Don't put sugar in a vagina.
They don't mix at all.
And I'm so shocked that, like, a lot. They don't mix at all.
And I'm so shocked.
A lot of people don't know that.
So they're putting jelly and jam and pussies and eating it.
And remember when we were watching that video about the prisoner talking about eating a jelly ass?
Yeah, I get my ass eat.
I get my salad tossed all the time.
A little grape jelly in my ass.
That boy going to eat my ass, boy.
Toss my salad in my jelly ass.
Don't do that. You'll get a terrible yeast infection. That doesn't work.
But wait, yeast plus sugar
equals donut.
Oh, wait.
You add some barley down there.
Then you make a new donut.
You gotta put the tap in.
Where do you put the tap in?
Where do you put the tap in?
I don't know. It only works for trans women yeah every time we do this i'm like my mom watches the show my mom's watching this right now
uh yeah she took issue with you once, Kyle I think I think that you
disparaged
what some, like
you made a distinction between good labias
and bad labias, you were all about the any
and
Your mother was offended by that?
She was
I don't want to talk about your mother's vagina
Well, we don't know
I think she just felt like
you were being selective.
And there are two classes of vagina.
It's like travel used to be in the old days.
Remember, we've all seen
the Titanic. There's all those
fancy people up on top with
champagne. I can believe I can
fly and all that shit. And then there's
dirty cocksuckers down below
triple bunk bed in it.
That's what those big meaty pussies are for.
They're triple bunk bed in it somewhere down in the lower class of people.
Nobody wants your big roast beef vagina that,
that can't be contained within normal people underwear.
You've always got to have some big wide crop.
Like,
like I know.
It looks like you're like walking.
It's looking like they stole a newspaper.
It's like,
it looks like they stole a newspaper?
Yeah.
It's a bundle down there.
It looks like a jellyfish.
It looks like a regular one.
I don't want any part of it. The any vagina is the pinnacle of vaginas.
I have been fortunate to experience many an any vagina in my life.
One of my favorite subreddits is rinnie.
I-N-N-I-E.
Now you can go there if you want to see some quality
vagina. There's no belly buttons on that
subreddit. That's an inny vagina.
That's perfect. That's what we want.
But if I see a sloppy
Arby's roast beef
and cheddar kind of fucking pussy, I
immediately flip off that.
Yeah, the cheddar is definitely the problem.
Although this tomato goes with it quite well.
A little horsey sauce, maybe?
Yeah.
Okay, well, here's a question, Kyle.
If you are with a girl who is otherwise a 10,
and then that happens, what do you do?
No, I've had this, and I fucked the girl the whole time i'm like ah
god that thing is gross i don't want that thing on my penis like i don't want that
yeah man like i don't like i always thought this was one of the reasons that guys were
better than girls that like that that we don't discriminate based on vaginas yeah yeah like
big labia small labia medium labia we say, we found a winner with the first world problems.
This is not a first world problem.
This is even worse than me wanting green screens to be up to spare me from having to look at other people's misery.
Even worse than that.
I don't want to fuck an ugly pussy.
I can just imagine four women sitting around and be like, well, I just won't fuck a guy who's not circumcised. I just won't like nobody would shit on her idea. She's like no
It's unattractive. It's gross. There's skin hanging off the end. I'm not into it. I will not
What can you do if you are a woman with that that you can get a vagina plasty?
There's a there's a surgery. They'll go down there. Maybe a labia plasty. Yeah. Yeah, thank you. Thank you
We can get both right. There's a there. They'll go down there. Olivioplasty, I think. Yeah, yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Well, you can get both, right?
There's another type.
While you're down there.
There's another surgery that'll actually tighten your vagina.
They can make your vagina super tight.
And they can even, I saw a thing where they gave a girl back her virginity.
They cut like a patch of skin, and they made her a false hymen.
So that when she had sex. No, that's clickbait. No one was given
their virginity back. This isn't the Bible.
Alright, alright.
That might have been a Law & Order episode.
Hold on a second.
Did the surgery look like
someone just doing this for a while?
There was a lot of rubbing
the way I remember it.
Are you sure this wasn't a Pornhub massage video?
I've got those bookmarked.
I would never get them confused.
My bad.
No, I'm not into unattractive vaginas.
And the more labia there is, the more outer lip.
Because I feel like that's part of the confusion here.
We can pull up some images,
but I'm not sure we can show the crowd.
We obviously can't show pictures of vaginas
to the crowd on YouTube.
Yeah.
Okay, so, all right,
let me tell you some characteristics
that would immediately be like,
that's a no-go.
Whenever I see a porno picture
and the girl is just standing,
like there's a subreddit I enjoy called
That Gap,
and it's all about the gap
between a woman's thighs when she's standing.
That gap. Yeah, that gap
between her thighs, like right below her ass.
It's a trademark of a very fit woman.
Yeah, it's almost like a
certain silhouette shape. It's
indicative of, like, a sexy
lady to begin with. If that's
there, it's probably true. Like when guys have
that good, whatever it's
called. Yeah, that V thing. Like Jesus. Yeah, that that good whatever it's called. Yeah that V thing
Jesus yeah the Jesus look that's right Christ figured out those kettlebells
Never skip court a never skipped can't wait for fitness talk. We'll have to cover it
That's a cardio to I'd imagine and the fish diet that that I like to think Christ was a swimmer
too, I'd imagine, and the fish diet.
I like to think Christ was a swimmer.
You're about to finish the vagina thing.
Yeah, the vagina thing.
If I see pussy lips hanging down, like if there was a silhouette of you
and I can see inner lip coming down,
that's an absolute no-go. Like, it's okay
if when you're aroused, they peek
out a little bit, right? Because
they're going to become engorged with blood.
Blood is a sexual organ. It's going to change.
It's going to change a little bit.
If it's hanging out during
regular walking around time
to the point where I'm like, yeah, yeah, there it is. Look at it.
Look at it. Yeah, there's a lot of it.
No, absolutely not. It needs to be at any.
It really does need to be at any.
Honestly, for me, it would have to be
bananas.
For me, it would have to be to the point
that I would be concerned about a medical condition or a disease. It would have to be to the point that I would be concerned about
a medical condition or a disease.
It would have to be if I had just the tip in
and it's still covered.
That's too much.
No, it's not common.
Wait, how small is the rest of it?
For me, it would
have to be actual physical bananas.
It would have to resemble
a cluster of bananas. An actual cluster of bananas. Yellow and five, six inches long. A actual physical bananas. Like it would have to resemble a cluster of bananas.
An actual cluster of bananas.
Yellow and five, six inches long.
A cluster of bananas.
With a peel.
And even then I'll give it a go.
And the little nubbin at the end.
Bananas are fine.
You microwave them for 30 seconds.
I'm just saying with a peel.
You're good.
I'm going to show you some graphic images now.
This vagina simply would not cut it.
This vagina would not cut it.
I can't wait to see this image.
By the way, Kyle did not search these.
He just had these up.
Yes.
This is my wallpaper currently.
Yes.
So this would be a no-go for you.
That's a no-go.
That is a no-go.
Too much going on there.
Now, I will admit there's a lot going on there,
but I don't think you're going to find a showstopper.
Yeah, there's a lot going on there, but I mean...
Oh, really?
Yeah, okay.
Challenge accepted.
But if we can sense that there is something afoot,
like an STD or a deformity that you're trying to pass off as a normal vag, we will know.
Yeah.
And also, the butthole's important, too.
If she has a gross butthole, I'm not into that either.
Like, that thing needs to look like a balloon knot, right?
Like, it just needs to, like, it needs to be a cute butthole.
I don't want some gross butthole back there that I don't even want to look at.
And every time I do catch a peek at it, I'm like, ugh.
Like, you know, if it looks like –
You have to make some tactical thumb places.
Remember that testicle?
If it looks like something from Rick and Morty, like, ugh.
Look at that asshole.
It looks like it might go blah, blah, blah, blah, and, like, talk to me out of nowhere.
Like, no.
No.
Kyle, the problem is you've got to stop having sex on mushrooms.
So much more fun i can't show you the images that kyle's linking however they do kind of exist on the reflection of my golden play button so if you look real carefully yeah you'll see
very little oh i just thought that that was what YouTube's golden play button looked like now. Just a big labia?
Yeah.
A gigantic
set of meat curtains.
But Kyle, you've
brought a nice young woman home.
You're about to kick it off.
You pull off her... Well, I'm going to wait for you
to send the next image. Are you sending another one?
I was looking for some of the worse ones,
but some of them just look
like, you know,
like, what is this?
What is that? Ah, here you go.
Like, here you go.
Nobody would fuck this.
You'd have to be a farm animal or something.
He really is slow at copy and pasting.
Well, it's because I'm using one hand, and I'm just using
a mouse, and I don't have
multiple monitors. What's the other hand doing?
Oh yeah, that's not...
There's no way this is a thing.
That's not real.
There's no way this is a thing.
You might have found one. This is extraordinary.
That is a
penis-sized labia, really.
Oh yeah.
By the way,
as soon as these pictures come in, I'm scrolling back up
to where you wrote bump a whole bunch of times.
Now, let me tell you the disparity here with my opinion.
This vagina I would be okay with because what's been done to this vagina is they took one of those pumps and they put it over the vagina and went ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch.
Oh, the penis pumps, the vacuum things.
Yeah, they have a penis pump that has a vagina attachment.
It's shaped like a big cup, and you put it over the entire vagina,
and it doesn't fit every girl.
She has to have, if you start with some big fucking nasty vagina,
it won't work.
But you, and it like super engorges the entire outer and inner vagina.
It's crazy.
I've never done this, but I would totally be down.
That looks prolapsed almost. It looks like an overripe vagina. It's crazy. I've never done this, but I would totally be down. That looks
prolapsed almost. It looks like an
overripe peach. It does.
I'm sure you're right. I can certainly say it looks a bit
prolapsed, but it's entirely healthy what's
happened here. Now, they do make another attachment for the
asshole, which I would not recommend, and it
basically does prolapse your asshole. Don't do
that. But the vagina thing's okay. There'll
be no lasting side effects of this. People are purchasing
a tool that prolapses their own asses. Can I subscribe to your newsletter?
Yeah, yeah. I've got an email. I send out an email biweekly.
Toys, coupons, all kinds of stuff.
Toys and coupons.
Okay, Kyle, the question I was asking you, or I was starting to, the second one, not the most recent one you posted of the blown up one, the second one.
You have a wonderful night with a lady. You go to dinner.
She's very sweet. You're getting on well.
You get home. You start
taking the pants off.
You've ignored the bulge thus
far.
So you put a penny in for a pound.
You get those panties
down and that's what you're
confronted with. What happens realistically?
Don't say, get out of my house.
The second one for people who don't have the benefit of the image was the most extreme one.
It was a four or five inch labia.
Also, before he goes, Kyle, do you bother to go to dinner first?
Because the way you were talking about it was like, oh, tens and I'd kick them out.
It sounds like they're all just like outside your door right now, just waiting.
There's at least two or three out there.
They're clawing like walking dead.
Yeah, I'd go to dinner for a movie.
Not to say they're just going to fuck them and not take them anywhere.
I like a little companionship.
But yeah, if I pull down her panties,
and it depends how big it is.
There is a point where I'm like,
ah, there's something wrong with you do you do well with women in like high school and college uh i did okay i didn't go
to college uh but i've kind of done okay always i guess not fantastically but you know as life
has gone on i guess i've done better and better right because what i'm wondering is you know and
like that that's true with you know a, a lot of guys, especially guys with, you know, successful careers, you tend to do better.
And what I'm wondering is when did your standards change to this?
Because I don't think that that's where you were when you first started.
Oh, it absolutely – no.
There's never been a time when I would – like I've always found that those – I remember my cousins – my cousin had porno mags that he'd taken from his dad.
Oh, thank God that that's where this went.
Yeah, right?
You're like, oh, this is getting very fast. His cousin had a huge labia.
It turned me on for the rest of my life. I need an adult.
So he had porno mags that he had smuggled, and he had a supply. And I remember looking and seeing this woman who was like
spread eagle, and you see her vagina. And it was the first time I'd seen the inner
lips, and she had them spread and they were it was like it was like butterfly wings you know like coming out and
they were so big and they were very dark and i remember then at like 12 maybe i was definitely
attracted to women and i was like oh i want to see more of this but i was like i didn't know
there's a difference between what i didn't know that this was going to be part of sex.
It literally made me think that
every time I'm going to have sex,
one of those is going to clamp onto my dick
kind of like that thing from Alien.
I found it really repugnant.
Specifically the lips, because there were plenty of other
vaginas.
You thought they were prehensile head lips.
It looked like it.
I recognize that not every pussy was like that, because there's other pussies in the book right it's like a hustler magazine so there's
lots of that would have been amazing if every single picture was of that same person
like what if that was my uncle's fetish like he like he yeah the magazine was called like
meat hangers or something and he's just like page after page of fucking low-hanging lips just sticking out like a sick cow.
Fucking... No, I'm sorry.
I wouldn't be into that.
How great of a band name is low-hanging lips?
There's a lot of other things that I'd be okay with.
I would be okay with the girl being a little overweight
or, like, I don't know,
like, you know, having a lazy eye or...
You would prefer a lazy eye
being overweight to a large labia i knew that is bananas i knew a
girl and one of her eyes went a little bit to the left you know her left eye went a little bit to
the left and if you're having a straight on conversation you notice it all the other time
very cute very attractive totally would have been down and i always thought like if i ever get with
this girl i'm gonna offer to fix her eye because it's like three grand and it would improve her exponentially right like it's an
excuse to not listen to her stories right I didn't I didn't know you were talking to me
oh I thought you're talking to him oh that would hurt her feelings so much
oh of course not you never do that someone in real life with the lazy eye that'd be awful
yeah I would much rather have a girl with a lazy eye.
No offense to anyone out there with lazy eyes.
It's not even a big deal to me because it's a surgery.
You get those muscles, they fix it, and it's not a big deal.
It's not like I'm going to get a big forehead or something.
I can't do shit about that.
Yeah, I mean, fuck the situation.
I just love the idea of Kyle just being this generous sex fairy.
The idea that he'll have sex with a woman and then he'll
just be like you know what that wasn't perfect here's three grand go get that fixed i know
that to girlfriends before like like not in a like this sounds like super light like misogynist
and crazy like you start dating growing like yeah you could use some tits like right like right away
but like i've totally offered girls who were already inquiring about this like i kind of like
a boob job or a butt job or something,
let's do that. It sounds like an investment.
I'll invest, but we'll both benefit
from this. I'd like you to have some new boobs
too. That sounds like a good thing.
But seriously though, I would much prefer
the lazy eye to a
very large labia.
You wouldn't want to
have it drag it across
your face?
I imagine spreading it and You wouldn't want to just have it let her drag it across your face? Ugh!
I imagine
spreading it and putting it over my nose
and it covers my whole nose.
And I try to pull away,
but I can't. It's got me.
What about using it,
but you could use it like if you have to blow your nose
during sex. It's convenient.
You could grab the lips and...
Yeah. And she's like, oh yeah, keep going. You have to blow your nose during sex. It's convenient. You like grab the lips and Yeah
And she's like, oh yeah keep going here like
Or just every six seconds
Sorry, you know.
And I'm saying this from a place where, like,
if there was something from my genitals,
like, if there was something unseemly going on with mine, I would totally be like,
hey, this isn't cutting it.
If I were a woman with a large labia,
I'd get it fixed. If I were a man with, like,
let's just say, I'm not going to say with a foreskin,
but with, like, some crazy foreskin,
like, you read that where people have problems,
like, they can't get an erection
because the skin will tear, like the skin
will come back over the head.
There are people who have issues like that. If you had some
crazy anteater thing where
it's just absurd, like a
wizard's sleeve, you've got to
get that fixed.
By the way, if you did have that, Legitimate
Rage would comment about your huge foreskin.
That's his fetish.
And he'd be right to do it.
In fairness, on that one, I would agree with the mom.
Man, this is a topic I didn't see us venturing into.
No, no, that one was not on my list.
Well, his mom wanted to...
This was in the show notes you guys emailed me.
Don't pretend.
Imagine if it's show notes.
I don't think my mom is on Team Kyle yet.
I think it's a divisive issue and she's not on your side.
Well, maybe Kyle said something that was compelling to her this week.
You'll have to ask.
I'm sure it'll come up.
Ask her if I sold her this week with my description of what a vagina is supposed to look like.
Shouldn't men really have some input
on that?
Well, yeah, of course men have input on it.
Just like women have input on it.
You have a total right to be like this, even if we think
it's silly. If you're like, I only like
this particular physical trait.
You know what, Australia?
This is another PKA fact.
This might be like that Law & Order episode where they gave the girl back or hyman but isn't australia where there's a certain
class of vagina that they won't even show in pornography like i i'm pretty sure in in australia
that they will not depict a meaty vagina in their pornography let me let me let me double check i
think what you're thinking of is this. I'll go.
In Australia, they have child pornography laws
that make it illegal to show women who are over 18 but look under 18.
So they can't have small boobs is one of the things.
That is not what I'm thinking.
It doesn't make any sense at all.
Actually, it's that the Australian classification board
decides what vaginas must look like in soft porn.
If a vagina has excess tissue, it may be labeled as offensive.
So porn companies must digitally edit or remove parts of the labia, leading to only one type of vagina seen in porn magazines.
First of all, who was still looking at porn magazines?
I was just in Australia about a week ago and somehow this didn't come up.
Nobody mentioned it at all.
It's a real hot button issue.
I went to three different cities
and no one, not even once,
I think that maybe that was like
they were prejudiced against me for being American
so they didn't let me in on
what was really going on.
Otherwise, I think this would have come up.
Here, I'm reading
an anti-censorship Australian
sex party is talking about the
2005 ruling which specified
that even depictions of women who are
over 18 but appear to be
underage may be judged illegal.
This practice is a strategic way
to fight child porn, but it's
an absurd to a perfectly normal
female body type and then it goes on to talk about how small boobs are one of the things that
they ban in australia a lot of women they think it's kind of like saying yeah if you have if i
have not too many australian users on the subreddit i wonder if they like do they ban
small dicks for the same thing like you know you know what? That guy's a little petite.
I'm so terrified of Kyle's front page on Reddit, like what you're subscribed to.
I've got some good ones in there.
Bad Dragon's my favorite, but we can't spend a whole show talking about Dragon.
We've already spent a whole show talking about it.
Two shows.
You ever see a Dragon cock?
It's going to get weird if we talk about it again.
And the horse ones
are more disturbing than the dragon ones
to me. And they're colored.
They're colored.
I just saw it on Reddit
not long ago. First of all,
as long as my arm,
they actually ejaculate these dildos.
But the most
disturbing part of it
for me personally hedge that statement was we don't give any coloring like you
know horses they're spotted liability so I'm an investor okay over at bad dragon
cock that's not bad right cockpit their products are great I just saw like you
said I've read it there was some some girl fucking herself with a horse dick.
And she was like, ah, it hurts my cervix so good.
And I'm just like, all right.
Just keep on flipping through the homepage.
That is an uncommon opinion I've learned.
That's a good thing.
Yeah.
Some girls are like, ah, you just punched me in the balls.
But then some girls really like that.
So you get a little bit of both.
Well.
Learn something new every day. I've watched episodes of SVU to understand
what a cycle of abuse does.
SVU teaches a lot of
valuable lessons.
It teaches one valuable lesson
over and over.
Which is Ice-T KX.
The main thing that SVU teaches
is that when a show is successful,
they stop paying for writers.
19 seasons in.
When are they going to give it up?
They can only fuck a kid so many ways.
John Mulaney has the definitive stand-up
on Law & Order.
There's no one who will ever write better Law & Order jokes
than Mulaney's already written.
I hope he comes out with a new one soon because he's a guy that yeah his stand-up is just fucking hilarious
i i don't i've never like gone on the youtube adventure looking for his interviews or anything
like that i've just watched the stuff on netflix is two specials but they're great i know you like
him as well kyle right mulaney i i got to work with him and the show couldn't have been better set up for me to succeed and for it to be difficult for him.
Like it was we were both doing an hour and it's hard to do an hour after someone has just done an hour.
And it was at Northeastern University and the sponsoring group was my fraternity.
And so like everybody came out for me and I had a great set.
And then he was on stage for maybe 30 seconds
before it didn't matter that I had ever been alive.
Like, he is so good that, like, the situation didn't matter.
He was just amazing.
He, uh, I just, every time I think about his jokes,
the thing that jumps out at me is, like, his eighth graders make fun of you
the way they know you don't want to be made fun of and then the way he calls out with such
self-awareness that his own physical flaws of like you know look at that high-waisted man he's got
feminine hips and like then you look at his body and you're like holy shit he has incredibly high
waists and big feminine hips like that's exactly what those kids would say. I think about that and just laugh sometimes.
It was brilliant.
Hopefully he makes something new.
Kyle, what does your shirt say?
It says Sunnyvale.
Oh, okay. Cool. I couldn't see it.
Yeah, I'm captain of the Sunnyvale
what is it?
Ball Hockey League.
If you don't know, what chance do I have?
You gotta watch like 12 seasons of trailer park boys uh yeah i i just saw that i just saw the ny for a moment i was like oh is that like
a new york thing like nope there's that now i used to play ball hockey it was my first style
of hockey that i played uh great story i know yeah they called it deck hockey where I was from.
It's basically street hockey
but in an arena with boards
and stuff.
I think I played that in gym class in high school.
It was fun.
That's all I got on the subject.
All you got on the hockey subject.
That's more than Kyle brings
to hockey subjects.
I have more on regular hockey.
I haven't watched hockey or even paid attention to it
since the Blues got knocked out.
Please tell me Pittsburgh is losing.
Pittsburgh is losing 2-1 in the series.
Good.
Against Ottawa.
I am a New York Rangers fan,
and it looked like we were going to take Ottawa down,
and then we uh did we totally
shit the bed so that sucked on the plus side though i had montreal beating new york in the
first round i thought that was going to be hard for the rangers and they ended up totally proving
me wrong on that i didn't think the blues were going to make it through the first round it really
looked like they had turned around and been a completely different team and then they were uh
leading by a lot and then they sucked and then i stopped watching as well i always like i'm i'm watching
the games again now because i want to follow it all the way through but usually the round right
after the blues get eliminated i just check out because it's just obnoxious and then in the end
it's all yeah i catch up by the i catch up by the stanley cup but like because the rangers are never
knocked out in the round before
the Stanley Cup, usually it's a couple rounds before,
so it gives me time to recover.
Oh, first world problems. Do your teams
make the playoffs?
Yeah.
No, you don't even get to complain, Woody.
The Flyers missed the playoffs by one fucking point
and they got the second overall draft pick this year
because some random dice roll
nonsense.
I will still complain. It's so crazy, and they got the second overall draft pick this year because some random dice roll nonsense.
I will don't complain.
It's so crazy, by the way,
that the Celtics got the first overall pick also.
Yeah, I don't know much about the NBA,
but they're going to, like, how does that work?
They basically traded the Nets for the ability to, like, trade up in picks,
and then the Nets pick is the one that got it,
so then the Celtics got it.
Yeah, I don't know anything about basketball,
but I saw that trending on Twitter,
and it just made me feel like,
oh, man, if I loved basketball, I would be so pissed right now.
If you're a 76ers fan or whatever the hell,
and you see the team that's in the Final Four.
They're in the Final Four, right? Like the Celtics?
It's not called
that, but yes. Oh, yeah.
The last four. They are
part of the four teams that are remaining.
But the Final Four is...
Remaining teams. Yeah, Final Four.
That's college basketball.
Yeah, my knowledge is showing.
Anyway, that's all. I ran out of things to talk about about basketball mid-sentence. That's how little... College basketball. Yeah. My knowledge is showing.
I ran out of things to talk about about basketball mid-sentence.
That's how little I know.
Yeah, the way that you're like,
if that basketball team scores more runs and they wear their football hats.
Yeah.
Why are they wearing their half pants?
Yeah.
I really like, I want to get a pair of basketball knickers.
Basketball knickers and a sleeveless tee yeah yeah I'll be I'll be hip I'll get $1,300 sneakers made by a starving Cambodian
people will respect me I think it is fun though that we then send the like the team that loses
in the finals we send those t-shirts to the same kid that made that loses in the finals, we send those
t-shirts to the same
kid that made the sneakers in the beginning.
It's a nice Hakuna Matata.
I really like that. You always see that
in charity pictures
where you'll see like, you know,
2010 Philadelphia Flyers
Stanley Cup champions and a bunch
of people with hands cut off
because they didn't bring enough rubber back to the factory,
wearing that sad, macabre shirt now.
Look, they should have thought of that before they didn't bring that rubber back.
Well, it is sleeveless.
That's true.
Oh, my God.
Kyle.
Kyle with the three-pointer.
From downtown.

We're just glad you're speaking in the first person again.
Yeah.
I was going to be like, comedian wants free nature box.
Can you guys do a clip like that?
Just title it.
I had a friend of mine
put up a heckler clip.
Miles Weber, who I'm performing with this weekend,
had put up a heckler clip where it said,
comedian kicks heckler in the face.
And he was performing in a stage where the stage is much higher,
where people's faces are right around where his foot would be.
And so it really looked like that could happen.
And then, then obviously he just
handled the heckler really well in the comments he wrote like you really wanted to see me do that
you sick fucks like this is this is why you clicked on the video you you terrible person
well i've seen that right like i can't i don't know who it was but there's that one comedian
who's kind of like in i don't know looks like he's in a bar like his stage is like one step up
it's the opposite of what you just described and some guy who like seemed like he fucked with him a lot
heckled with him a lot they're having this altercation he's like come at me go ahead come
up here i dare you i dare and the guy comes at him again and he just drop kicks this guy to the
ground i don't know that uh see if i can find it i saw i've of course seen the one where the comedian
i think he's either a comedian or maybe a guitar a musical comedian. Yeah, he's a musical guy.
That was like the 80s.
He dunks it with a guitar and, like, decks the guy.
And he's like, you all saw it, right?
He came right at me.
And they're all like, boo.
No, bro, you took him out.
You escalated, like, four notches.
You see where the he kicks the guy there's there's one where uh brian bruner
got attacked on stage like a physical attack i've never i've never been like i've dealt with a bunch
of actors but i've never had any physical problems with them um you know the the trick is to make
sure that the rest of the crowd is with you enough to stop any of that okay as it comes up the only
one who's made it to the stage there was a woman who made it to the stage once,
but she just was drunk and wanted attention,
and she tried to grab the microphone,
and I kind of just, like, just
shouldered her away. That's not
my shoulder, that's my elbow. You know, alright, I kind of
did that. And it was
a new club, and the security guards, like,
were afraid of, like, grabbing anybody,
and so then they chased her through
the crowd like it was the end of a Benny Hill episode.
Just like they wouldn't touch her.
And she just kept running around over and over again.
It was utterly ridiculous.
Something about the drunk woman wanting attention
makes me hate her.
That's like a class of woman right there
with the one who yells stop
at a fight i just stop yeah oh yeah the yeah well what she's yelling is this fight needs to be about
me you're not paying attention to me in this moment oh my god oh my god i was uh i need to see if any of you empathize with this too i was
listening to another podcast that's one of my favorites the dick show with dick masterson
and he i'd never articulated the thought in my head but he said something that pissed him off
and i like immediately resonated with it so much and it was like fake gasping that women do that stresses you out when you
think something bad has happened but it's like oh you're like oh oh I thought
I'd misplaced my purse or like along those lines oh I thought I forgot my
mascara in the car I'm gonna have to go get it like that kind of thing and it
immediately triggered it's like something in my head we're like not just
like girlfriends but like even like moms grandma's whatever
like it's just a woman thing where they just think they're very low stakes in
their world okay take much to elicit a world that's what a tarantula lands on
your jugular as you were digging through those boxes in the garage to them it's
like I wore my brown shoes when I when i was uh first learning how to
drive like the the first time i was in a car where i was driving and my mother was in the passenger
seat like everything i would do she would like grab at the dashboard and gasp really quick and
i was like you understand that's gonna make me crash right like the the idea that you're making
me think that something's coming at us from your side.
Like this is way more dangerous.
My mom did that too where it was like the best thing you can do is just sit there and pretend like I'm not in danger. The same way that like when a kid falls, if you go like, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, are you okay?
They're going to be like, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
But if you go, ah, this guy fucking on the ground the kid will be like am i
hurt he's responding in a way that leads me to believe i am not hurt you know and so the kid
doesn't do it like but oh the whole gasping every time you put on a little too much you know when
there's and there's a car yeah a mere half mile in front of you so i used to and the other way
around i used to uh i used to have this constant disagreement with my ex where every time because
i would often i'm a big sports fan and you know i would look at my phone i'd be like oh man and
she'd be like well what's wrong i was like what do you mean what's wrong like the mets lost
and she's like oh i thought so i was like we've been together seven years you don't know my noises
yet you know what i mean like you don't know my level of like if something was genuinely wrong
you think i would only go oh damn it
you know like wouldn't it
wouldn't I have done something a little bit more flourish
than that let's watch this comedian
kick this guy oh by the way I know
this clip and I can tell you some behind the scenes
from it oh cool
just a second
I'm queuing up are we starting anywhere
are we going from the
just beginning we could start from 10 seconds to save you a little bit of bullshit Just a second. I'm queuing up. Are we starting anywhere? Are we going from the beginning?
We could start from 10 seconds to save you a little bit of bullshit.
Alright.
I don't even need to watch this one.
3, 2, 1, play.
Ray, have a seat.
Ray, if you put your hands on me again,
if you put your hands on me again,
if you put your hands on me again, the guy who got dropkicked is, like, a mentally challenged guy who goes to a bunch of the open mics.
And a lot of the local comics in that scene don't like the guy.
Because, you know, for a while, you feel bad when someone's mentally challenged.
And then after a while, you're just like, this guy is ruining all these shows.
He's wearing an aluminum foil hat.
He is. And he... Ah, so the retarded gentleman is the one in the tin hat? you're just like, this guy is ruining all these shows. He's wearing an aluminum foil hat. Yes.
So the retarded gentleman is the one in the tin hat?
Yes.
Actually, I think he's the one on stage in this clip.
Because it's the idea that someone,
you've got someone like, yeah, he's being annoying,
but someone who is clearly mentally challenged
is walking slowly toward the stage.
You could tell he wanted to fight him ahead of time.
You could tell from this clip that this guy was waiting for an excuse.
And he did the whole you saw it thing also.
He came at me.
No, he didn't.
He was an old man feebly walking toward the stage being annoyed with you.
That was all he was.
I think both of them are very, very wrong in this clip.
Both of them?
A real stomach kicking.
Yeah, I just saw the kick. That's where we are now.
And now he's laying on his back.
I'm pro-comedian on this thing.
That guy approached the stage, finger
in his face, at a fast walk.
No, but he's retarded.
You can't be like, I hold you to the same standard as someone who knows what they're doing.
The comedian said the man had already put his hands on him once, and to be fair, it doesn't matter if this man knows what he's doing or not, he is doing it.
And he's probably incredibly strong.
But also, he has that super strength.
But also, he's Three times a normal man.
I want to see the kick again.
This is Sparta to him.
Look at that.
This is Emmery's front kick.
This is Sparta.
The comedian was genuinely afraid for his safety,
or do you think he was looking for an excuse to kick this guy?
I think he wanted to kick the guy.
When the guy came again, he was like,
all right, now I'm going to fucking show you.
But the comedian said, and we didn't see it
He was like you've already played your hands on me once that's what he's saying the beginning
He's like don't you touch me again? Don't you touch me again? Don't you put your hands on me?
And then he's approaching it that fast clip
He's he's one step away from being like in personal space and in like punch
Yeah, but he gave him a kick right before punch range. The only thing that makes it questionable
is the fact that the guy is handicapped.
Because if someone was charging at you like that,
with that gait, that quick walking,
and they weren't sound of mind,
you'd be fine kicking him, I think.
Also, that they know each other.
He knows that this guy is not all there.
And he knows that this guy is not all there in a harmless way.
I don't know that.
I don't know that.
You don't know that, but I'm saying he does.
Do you know that guy?
He's okay?
I know other comedians in the scene who are, like, the guy Raid Zone, he is an annoying person who none of them like, but at the same time they deal with.
And he's not someone that anyone's ever been afraid of.
It's the Chisholm.
La da da da, it's the Chisholm. Eastern Europe and we're the downfall of...
Oh, are we good?
All right, we're good.
And we're recording.
So glad to be here.
Kyle has a very clever thing that he does
when he's trying to get someone to hit record that I like
is he starts going off on some anti-Irish or anti-Semitic
rant because he knows
whoever's responsible for recording
will hit record really quickly.
Well, I just like, you know,
I am, as Kyle puts it,
one of the good ones.
Yeah.
That's only what he says
to quote one of the good ones.
Yeah, yeah, yeah the word the words uh damn and dirty often come before describing me so are there red-headed jewish people you're the
only one i've met uh no we're talking about the irish there no there uh there are red-headed
jews it's not common but i used to do a bit about being being a redheaded Jew and every time there was one in the audience,
you could just see them be like, oh, preach it, brother.
Because it's...
Redheads are 2% of the population.
Jews are 2% of the population.
So, even that
makes us incredibly rare,
but also, like, we just don't have, there's not a lot
of redheaded in the genes. Basically,
it was my ancestors were raped by Vikings, whatever.
That's how it works. Do you ever get like uh like shade tossed at you from other jews who are
like uh like they don't they don't quite give you the the acknowledgement right away we're just so
happy to have any numbers that were taking anybody yeah take anybody into the club my favorite my
favorite joke about being jewish ever was written by fluor by uh wayne fetterman has a great joke where he says the thing about being jewish is that everyone
who's more observant than you is fucking crazy and everyone who's less observant than you may
as well not even be jewish at all so like the perfect summation of how it is yeah what he was
torrenting a lot of pornography apparently and
his connection went down a few minutes ago so this is kind of like our part two of pk no kyle that
was a private thing in the text yeah you weren't supposed to all that labia porn you got him into
it yeah really you're half responsible on this i don't know if you're more or less responsible than that comedian who kicked the retarded guy but somewhere in that realm yeah i don't know
who would have known that giant labia made up such huge hd files enough to crash your giant
you know set up there uh giant labia is that's the name of my other band
i don't know how i'm going to edit these two together
whether I'm going to cut out the like 15 minutes
of me troubleshooting but because there are
links in the description well they can just
click we have like time stamps where they can go
to every topic but
anyway if I do leave it in
you can't just slice it out like that's the
laziest edit of like I'll just leave in 15
minutes of dead air because I don't want to take
the three minutes to edit it I was narrating what i was doing the whole time
like all right now i'm doing this i'm sure i even say charming you know what i actually
the reason i don't want you to do your one-man show while we're gone no worries then
i don't want you to leave it in because i actually have a whole podcast devoted to fixing my own internet
connectivity issues so that's gonna be a competing we have a very strict no compete clause here we're
not you did not tell us about your internet connectivity podcast here's what i do i actually
like i just look at the screen and i'm just like, okay, come on.
It's not that.
I just do that for 15 minutes
and then I sing Woody's songs.
Do you often break it up with
a, oh, no,
I thought that would have been it.
Do you drop one of those
every once in a while?
I'll just be like, okay,
turn the Wi-Fi off
and now
back on.
Oh, no, nothing.
That's actually...
Look, it's hard. I don't really want to do
my material on the air.
You don't want to quote yourself.
Well, no, you're giving away company secrets right now
I have to leave my stuff in there
so they can see how much that resembles
how accurate it was
sometimes and sometimes
if I really
want to get the audience engaged
I'll be like man fuck AT&T huh
and then
anybody else less than enthused
with their comcast subscriptions anyone maybe i'm just you know crazy anyone else people agree
okay just spitball in here yeah but you don't understand like i walk through the halls my phone
going off like my mom wife they're all texting me my my mother-in-law's you know she's like sitting
up in her bed like you know on, I can't watch my television
and it's like, no, this is my fault
it's actually a video
podcast, you know, because
a lot of it is
because once I decide that
it's not going to work, I will walk around and just
hold my phone up to try to get the best signal possible
and so then
that's actually most of the
final eight minutes of the podcast
just me doing this that's actually most of the final eight minutes of the podcast,
just me doing this.
That's pretty funny.
But in all seriousness, we should not leave that 15 minutes in because people will be upset.
Because they'll never get to this gold.
No, they won't.
They'll skip right past it and go, I don't want to hear anything about this.
Well, you know, they can just imagine what it was like because Steve kind of just did a
play-by-play. That was it
but 20 minutes long.
Chiz just texted that
it'll get really good when he calls the AT&T support
line. My favorite part is actually not
calling the support line. It's
them listening to me choose through the menu
and then there's actually
a part where
I tune out and I don't hear all the options and then I have actually a part where I tune out
and I don't hear all the options,
and then I have to press 9 to play the menu again.
That's the meat of the podcast.
That's one of the recurring bits.
That's the labia meat of the podcast.
My wife wanted me to call in.
I'm like, that's all you, baby.
It's got to be you.
She's like, what, you're working?
I explained to her the whole tethering thing.
I think she might be calling AT&T right now.
Which is a task completely relegated to me.
I hope so.
They'd be an authority maybe.
I don't think people have ever seen one.
This big labia thing is going to be a mainstay of the show from now on.
I'm holding onto this with both hands.
It's actually going to be called.
That's what you do.
PKA.
PKA.
I was like, somebody will take it right somebody will grab wear it like a hat the gloves are off okay so
steve have you completely avoided all this trump material in your show
uh i don't really do much trump stuff i the the main bit i do is addressing
the idea that he's good for comedy because people like will say that often like he's good for comedy
and my take on it is that it's hard to do stand-up in a post-apocalyptic wasteland
uh like it's gonna it's gonna be it's gonna be difficult to just be like men and women are
different or at least they were before the radiation so it's like you know a little bit of that um but for the most part
it's i don't want to do material that everyone else is doing and also i've seen so many comics
just do such lazy trump material it reminds me of the of a lot of the george bush material where
i did a i was on a tour briefly so this promoter made this tour they called it the blue
stater comedy tour so this was in like oh five oh six something like that so uh and like i did
one show with them and it was like tom simmons who's brilliant and then like a couple of comics
who were just being like fuck bush right man isn't right? And I'm like, this isn't comedy. This is a complaining tour.
And by the way, I know we have our political differences, and I've talked about that.
But I did a show recently for a progressive charity where the whole audience was not just progressive.
There were a lot of elected officials there.
And when I was doing my set, I was like, this is everything were a lot of elected officials there and when i was doing my
set i was like this is everything wrong with progressives right now because there were so
many oohs instead of laughs there were so many like oh no you know and i just wanted to be like
you're pushing me conservative right now you you you fucking sensitive dicks like i've said this is
this is not what we are this is not what we are and uh i think extreme
and and there were not look half the crowd was wonderful um but you know there was a half the
crowd that was just a very like we should all get along and so i finally i closed my set and i go
i want you to know something uh stand-up comedy is the last art form that will be censored so when you censor us it's over so keep that in
mind and uh what do you mean by that i mean i mean that stand-up is always supposed to be
counterculture so i fully believe that like you know that books and movies and things like that
will be hit way before us if like we do come into a culture that actually actively censors stuff,
you know, it's our job to not be.
And so when standup gets censored, then it's over.
Do you think there's a problem with comedians ever with self-censorship
where they don't want to say certain things
because they know they'll be kind of ousted from a community,
the community of comedians,
and they won't be invited on shows or anything like that? I think sometimes people do that but i think there's also a level of
self-censorship because people don't people are so afraid of someone not liking them that they don't
have anyone like them you know what i mean like that they'll do like i had a promoter
so they're like two middle of the ground milk toast absolutely and they'll be, you know, I'm not going to talk about politics because I don't
want to divide the crowd.
It's like, oh, so then no one will have a strong opinion about you in either direction.
Like and not everyone has to be political.
But if that's the reason you don't get into it, it's because you're it's you're being
a coward.
And I like I had a promoter once say to me, like, because they wanted me to be clean for
a show.
And I go, I was like, hey, you know, the crowd who's coming to see me is my crowd.
So they're going to want me to be me.
And she goes, well, I've never had anyone complain that a show was too clean.
And I go, yeah, what they do say is that show was too boring.
And you don't understand that what that means is that show was too clean.
Yeah, I could see.
There are a lot of comedians that are totally clean, or not a lot.
Did you see that Tim Allen's show got canceled?
Tim Allen?
I've never watched it, but I thought it was a really successful show.
Yeah, I did, but it's been on for a long time.
I think, look, there are some wonderfully clean comedians.
There are, you know, Brian Regan.
I wasn't saying he was clean.
He was conservative, though.
That's the thought process by a lot of people about why that show got canceled.
Oh, that's silly.
I don't know.
It's making money.
Like, a network is not going to pull a show because one of the people on it has conservative viewpoints.
The whole show was about that, though.
See, the show is about a conservative family and their lifestyle.
Like a nuclear family.
And it was making money, and yet it was canceled.
That's the story.
That there was this show that was about sort of a right-wing conservative family.
And they prosper, despite all that and um it was and
the show was doing well on the air but it was recently pulled i when you say it's doing well
what measurement what's the metric all i i i read that it was doing well in the ratings and that it
was a a a highly watched show i don't know what the nielsen ratings for it are or anything like
yeah like i'd be i'd be curious i'd be curious to what the Nielsen ratings for it are or anything like that. Yeah. Like I'd be,
I'd be curious to see it. It's not the ratings necessarily.
It's the sponsors.
So I'd be curious to see if the sponsors affected it at all.
Like if anyone,
because you know,
and I don't know a ton about the show.
I know some people who work for him and I've opened for him.
Um,
but I like,
I,
for something like that,
when people immediately jump to politics, I don't think that there is this vast conspiracy.
If there was a vast conspiracy to keep conservatives off TV, why does MSNBC interview or why does CNN interview Tommy Lahren?
Like it seems Steve just makes a lot of sense here right it seems like it would be
all about the sponsors i mean hell that everyone knows i'm no fan of trump but if he advertised
on this show and wanted me to go full sean spicer i would i'd be like oh yeah fucking idiot
they didn't call me firing had nothing to do with that yeah this message brought to you by trump i'd say
it yeah yeah it's it's there's um i mean the same way that like uh i'm sure that there exists a tape
from the apprentice of donald trump saying horrific things even compared to the stuff we already know
he said and why does mark burnett not release that even though he's not a fan of trump because
he has a business to look after and he wants people to trust that they can say anything on tape without it being released.
Yeah, except for the time when he released the tape, right?
No, Burnett didn't release that.
Yeah, he didn't release that.
NBC released that, right?
I got leaked, the way I remember.
It was from that Billy Bush show you're talking about.
Yeah, yeah, that wasn't.
That was NBC.
No, that wasn't even NBC.
I forget who else.
Yeah, that's a completely different thing.
That was like a staff member going rogue.
And no one knows exactly who did it.
But the point is that there's too much money at stake.
And it really is like Chiz just texted.
It really is true.
The show's been the same since it started.
So why suddenly now?
I think it's because
if they're not making money off it or they fear
that they're not going to make money off of it, that's why they'll do it.
There's plenty of conservative voices
on TV. Kelsey Grammer has had
a bunch of shows
and he is the most conservative.
Kelsey Grammer's had all of his shows.
I don't know anything about show makers.
What are his shows?
Kelsey Grammer has Frasier Forever
and he was on Cheers for a very long time
and then they tried, I think they tried
three or four other sitcoms with him that didn't work out
but they kept giving him shows
remember, what's his name?
Kramer from Seinfeld
Michael Richardson
he had
all the Seinfeld cast had those failed shows.
I guess Mary Louise Dreyfuss.
Hersha Veep is obviously really successful.
She had that thing.
The New Life of Old Christine.
Yeah, that did well.
But fucking George,
Jason Alexander and Michael Richards
really had a shitty time of it.
They each tried two or three times, I think.
I can't see George as anyone but Costanza or
Michael Richards as anyone but Kramer, but I can
see Julia Louise Dreyfuss as
other characters for some reason. Yeah, Kramer
was like a private eye smoking a pipe
in his first
attempt at a sitcom. It was super
lame. Yeah.
So speaking of that, I'm here at the Laugh Factory
right now. Oh yeah.
Tell us about that.
Speaking of super lame, tell us about that that's where that went down speaking of super lame tell us about your
that's where that went down i actually uh i tried to get the i tried to get footage of that incident
like because you only see half of it from the tmz stuff and so i went back to the archives
try to find i think someone deleted it um. Probably someone who worked in production a while ago
thought they were helping and that's a very dumb thing to do.
But anyway,
I'm now the Executive Vice President
of Television and Film for The Laugh Factory.
That's awesome, man.
We're going to market with a whole bunch of
TV shows and movies.
My vision is to position
us where National Lampoon was 30 years
ago and still would be if all the CEOs didn't
keep getting arrested.
The CEOs of National
Lampoon were like the Illinois governors.
It was just, it's a
stepping stone to prison.
I love National Lampoon's
vacation movies, those
fucking Chevy Chase and
Beverly D'Angelo. Oh my god, yeah,
roll them up. So many quotable lines and of course you beverly d'angelo oh my god yeah roll them up like so many
quotable lines and of course you got beverly d'angelo's just giant perfect titties like right
there in the like first quarter of the movie he's driving that mint green fucking piece of shit like
that whole movie is great i like i like all the vacation movies but that one and christmas i
watch christmas vacation every year and a lot of people don't realize that animal house was also
lampoon yeah um yeah there's i mean they they did some really wonderful work and then they lost their Christmas vacation every year. And a lot of people don't realize that Animal House is also Lampoon. Yeah.
Yeah, there's, I mean, they did some really wonderful work, and then they lost their damn minds.
And I say this as someone who, I wrote a book for them.
I used to host a radio show for them.
And, like, my theory was that what they should do is they should go, like, they should re-release Animal House.
And when they do, put it back in theaters as an anniversary, and then when they do, have a little preview
beforehand that says,
we've brought you some of the greatest movies of all time
and show a bunch of clips, and then go,
also, the last 20 years,
and we're very sorry.
Yeah, they need to pull a Papa John's.
Remember?
No, a Domino's.
Is that who did it?
We've been making some shitty pizza for a long time, and
we know it.
Give us a second chance. We got some better
tomatoes. That's real garlic in
there, and 85%
of the cheese in your pizza is now actually
cheese. Now, if you microwave
this tomato for two minutes...
Yeah.
And you cut a hole through the middle, you know, or
just don't cut a hole if you're a gumptious
fella you know yeah if you're really hard yeah yeah so so this whole time during this during
this show i've been sitting here and the office right next to me is like my staff and they've
just been listening to one side of this because i have my headphones on and they're just wondering
what the hell is going on they're like like, you know what? We don't know
who Steve is talking to, but we're glad
that he's given a voice
to all the big labia gals
out there, you know? Standing up
for the little fella.
Nobody ever defends big labia ladies.
For those who are too big to stand up for
themselves.
But what about the times on the beach where I just
saw one set of footprints?
Ah, but if you look there, there's a streak of your dragging
labia from when I was carrying you.
You know?
Woody's mom will not like this
part of the show.
Oh, no, she's not going to like me anymore.
She's very anti-small labia.
Yes.
She's a laboritarian. A small labia it's yes it's she's a she's a laboritarian i feel like i was re-energized by the break anyway so uh yeah so we're doing all kinds of
stuff here like the laugh factory has a really big youtube channel and we went from releasing
uh like one clip every couple of weeks to we were doing one clip a day for a while and uh we're now starting to record every show we're gonna do new web series and uh it's it's a
lot of fun to be able to kind of be in charge of this brand because it's like it's such a good
brand but it also gives me an amazing window into because like my youtube comments are like most of
people on my youtube channel are my fans because that's who watches the youtube
channel but with laugh factory they're fans of the brand like they're fans of the club but the
individual comics they don't necessarily know so they can be brutal on someone they've never heard
of they can be like really really brutal and like no matter what clip we put up like there'll be
like a bunch of comments like women aren't't funny, and be like, this is a dude.
Like this.
I was just saying this for the other videos.
I just don't know if you heard me
the last time, so I'm going to say this
again.
I think that's an even greater insult, though,
right? If they watch the comedian
do his thing, and they're like, ah, no,
women aren't funny.
That's an even harder hitting insult.
That's all that is.
Not only are you not funny,
you thought you were a woman.
You're a man?
Yeah, I think that you're giving them too much clever.
You're assigning too much clever to their personality.
I think the person who's going to mash their keyboard
about what gender is funnier
is not going to be clever enough
to also
insult someone in two levels.
Exactly. Why waste the effort? Everyone knows the answer.
Yeah.
Oh, jeez.
What's the answer, Taylor?
What, that men are funnier than women?
Do you and Andy Rooney agree?
Andy Rooney?
Yeah, yeah. Isn't he one of the guys who's always going around
saying that men are funnier than women?
And just not being completely unapologetic about it?
You're thinking of...
Are you thinking of Andy Kaufman from, like, the 80s?
That guy's fucking dead.
Yeah.
Like, who would wrestle people on stage?
He wouldn't just wrestle people.
He wrestled fucking, like, Jerry King Lawler or whatever his name is.
Like, the king.
Yeah, Andy Rooney is dead, too.
Thank you, Chiz.
I met Andy Rooney in college, Andy Rooney is dead too. Thank you, Chiz.
I met Andy Rooney in college.
Andy Rooney's dead.
I was covering...
When did he die? Six years ago.
At some point.
I was covering an event for my school paper
that Andy Rooney was speaking at.
I got to interview him.
I'm like, hi, I'd like to
interview you for the paper.
He just looks at me and goes, what does your father do?
I was like, what?
What now?
How did this become an interview of me?
I'm very confused.
He's a weird dude.
Well, now he's a dead dude.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Andy Rooney.
For six years, apparently.
Have you ever watched those Andy Kaufaufman i think that's his name
videos on youtube from when he would call people out of the the crowd and just that's his name how
dare you that would have his his comedy was was ridiculous it's hilarious it's a different thing
like he would go out there and read a book or he would go out there and just just like stare at really easy
he like i think he kind of fords the way for trolling right i could have been him in fourth
grade it's what he does with it there are people who a to get laughs with it but also like
to have the composure to not be bothered by most of the crowd hating you like that is that takes a very specific personality and also the the most
amazing andy kaufman the most amazing thing andy kaufman ever did was push the boundaries of comedy
the worst thing he ever did was make a bunch of comedians think that they're andy kaufman
and like there are a bunch of comics who will go up and just try to do something
like annoying because they're like but what about andy kaufman it's like yeah he was brilliant and
you're not him and he already did the thing so god that guy was hard to look at too do you
ever see man on the moon with Jim Carrey great movie really good movie like Jim Carrey's a good
actor um that that that was a good movie um Andy Kaufman's a bizarre was a bizarre guy um I I
after I watched man on the moon whenever it came out it's been like a
decade ago but after i watched that i was like well i have to educate myself now let's learn
who andy kaufman is and i start finding these like clips of like i'm like holy shit is he actually
like i couldn't tell if the wrestling guy really hated andy kaufman or or if you know he's a
wrestler a wrestler technically so maybe he's playing it up and it's all entertainment like
him and andy are like wink wink like like i i don't know what the truth is probably that though
right i think uh like the the best part of man on the moon to me was when because like when andy
kaufman is basically dying and he goes for this like magical treatment or whatever and he sees
and he sees that the the shaman or whoever it was
is just it's a mat it's a magic trick and he's just lying to people and he starts laughing
because he's like oh he's doing the same thing i'm doing like this is an act and i thought that
that was i don't know if that's a real thing that happened but i thought that was a brilliant part
of the script yeah yeah i like that part too that that part stuck with me i remember he's like rubbing and he's doing that bullshit thing where like the guy reaches inside your body and pulls
out cancer yeah he's got like a bit of chicken fat like concealed you know in his palm and he's
like there's there's blood there's a little fake blood or something he's like oh chicken fat and
andy's like yeah i see my god you got me this is what I would do
this hairy moles
that's fucking disgusting
you go taxi right
with Danny DeVito
yeah
that's how I know him best
that's how he got
that's how he became like a household name
what was his character's name
Latka
I know you hate Jews but Latkas are a thing.
I haven't even seen that movie.
What is it?
This is the TV show Taxi.
That's where Danny DeVito got popular too.
If I remember, Danny DeVito is the dispatcher.
He's the boss of everybody.
Christopher Lloyd. I's the boss of everybody. Yeah, Christopher Lloyd.
I love the cast.
I call him the doc.
Yeah, Christopher Lloyd is great.
I wish... Christopher Lloyd's so fucking old now.
He's still alive.
Isn't he dead?
He's still alive, right, Chiz?
Christopher Lloyd's still with us.
Don't tell me that the doc is dead.
Doc Brown is still alive.
There's no way I got to talk...
No, he died nine months ago.
Chiz is barely. Michael J. Fox is still around. Chiz. way I got to talk. No, he died nine months ago. Just as barely.
Michael J. Fox is still around.
Damn it, Chiz.
Wait, can he bring us back in time to when he was younger?
You know he wishes, right?
Wait, are you saying that...
Oh, never mind.
You know the Italian guy who was kind of the star of Taxi?
Tony Danza?
Yeah.
No.
He was older than that.
He had a mole.
Jeff Hirsch?
The hero?
Probably Judd Hirsch.
Oh, you're thinking of Taxi Driver?
Are you thinking of Taxi Driver?
It's Danny DeVito, Andy Kaufman,
Tony Danza, Judd Hirsch.
Probably Judd Hirsch.
Anyway, for some reason I thought he was
talking around for a minute.
Wait!
He looked really Italian. Judd! Anyway, for some reason I thought he was Josh Brown for a minute. Wait. Tony Danza.
He looked really Italian.
Judge Hersh.
I don't really do names.
Anyway.
Oh, a lovely Sicilian name.
No, this isn't him.
Judge Hersh.
This guy, Judge Hersh,
is the same dude from Independence Day
who's like, you'd be nothing without my David.
You over here with the Apple computers trying your best to figure things out.
David comes over and finds a way to hack into the system.
And now you won't give him a chance.
And that's right before Harvey Fierstein sees all that shit.
He's like, oh, I've got to call my mother.
Oh, my God.
And he's like running.
Guys, can we just stop talking and just have the rest of the podcast be Taylor
acting out independence day?
Nowhere without Mike David.
This can be.
Yeah.
But it would be a lot like your tech podcast.
Very good for about four minutes.
And then incredibly frustrating.
Yeah.
Even at the time, like when i first saw independence
when i saw it i was like like maybe 13 14 15 i don't know when i saw that movie for the first
time and even then like i saw him being that jewish and being like this is odd like i've
never met anyone who speaks like this oh this, but I have. This kind of inflection. Everything's so dramatic.
Like, I'm sure you have.
Yeah.
I'm a Jewish kid from New York.
I've absolutely met that person.
But also, can I get a little embarrassing for a moment?
I went to go see it.
I was, yeah, probably 14 or so.
I went to see it in the theaters.
And I said the phrase to my brother.
And I remember the exact quote because he didn't let me forget it for years.
I said, I was really surprised by Will Smith.
He is the finest actor of our generation.
You did not shoot that green shit at me.
That's got Brando all over in it.
You know what?
I was just saying, hey, because I thought he'd be like the Fresh Prince and said he was a completely
different character. But yeah,
I called him the fine. And look, he's a good
actor. He's great in Ali. But the finest
actor of our generation might be a little bit
of a...
He was good in Hancock. I saw that recently.
That movie is awesome. I'd love to see
Hancock too. Yeah, why didn't that movie do better? I thought that movie
was great. Ah, because of the shit.
That was the aloof superhero, right?
That movie was bad.
They butchered the storyline.
It wasn't supposed to be
that whole love thing with
Charlize Theron or whoever they had playing it.
The executives changed
that whole story at the last minute
and they got all butchered up.
I love the idea of a superhero
that doesn't want
to be a superhero because like let's be honest if you woke up tomorrow with superpowers like when i
was in i was playing in tulsa last week and i got bit by a brown recluse and so and like here's the
like i had to look it up like 35 of people who get bit have like really fucking bad symptoms and
luckily it turns out i'm not allergic and so then i kept joking around oh i'll just become spider-man and then i was thinking about it and
i was like if i did develop superpowers would i be a superhero or what i just i would just go play
baseball and not tell anyone i had superpowers yeah absolutely yeah or it depends how powerful
you are like like take a superhero and and say you get If I become Spider-Man, I can't exactly conquer the world
with my web-slinging skills,
but I could become one hell of a thief
or I could become a professional athlete.
Probably just be the athlete.
You get more money and pussy that way.
It'd be great.
Just become a pro athlete like you said.
But if you're like, I don't know,
Green Lantern level powers,
well, I'm going to rule the world now
and crush anyone who stands in my way
because I'm clearly like a superior being.
Literally.
Why can't you do both?
Why can't you be a superhero?
I don't think there's any rules in the NBA that say you can't be a superhero.
Because Spider-Man is incapable.
Well, wait.
I've seen it.
Spider-Man would be the best player in the NBA.
I'm not getting a night of money then.
By the way, is you're selling.
When you're Spider-Man and getting all the money and pussy
as you put it, is there a moment where
she's going to be like, what's that white stuff?
And you're like, that's just webs.
I'm sorry. That's just from my hands.
That's just webs. If you have a problem
with it, I can relocate you to
dangling seven stories above the pavement.
Is it a problem? Oh, it's not.
I'd be working that web.
Fuck fighting crime.
It'd be bondage.
Who cares?
There you go, Woody.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, exactly.
Fucking tied up, bitch.
That chick would be bound.
She's like, no, don't do this.
Ankles and wrists to the bed in no time.
Wait, so hold on a second.
If you became Spider-Man, you'd become a rapist?
No, she'd love it. If you become one, it would just make him a more successful one.
I don't have to rape them.
I mean, like a
Kobe-level rapist, right?
Like top-tier
rape.
I was
just saying I'd be a little selfish
like I'd be a baseball player. I didn't realize
it would be that.
Because they would want your seed.
We're going to go full Cosby with this?
Because they would want your seed.
See, the best way to not
have to do any sort of web
rape is, I think, just to do
the athletics. Because that is like
and also it comes with the most glory.
If you could pause time or something,
I'd just go be the best goalie
in the history of the NHL
because I could just pause time on my own
and then everyone would be like,
how the fuck is he saving literally everything
since he entered the league?
And he'd be like,
you can't prove shit
because I'm a magic, basically.
And if I had another ability that was like,
I can also shoot lasers from my eyes,
I would never use it.
I would never use it.
It could do nothing but jeopardize
my original power.
So you just lay below the line.
Like if I saw someone on the train tracks about to die, I'd have to really deliberate.
Like is it worth risking it?
No, sorry, lady.
I'm really enjoying playing for the fucking flyers or whatever.
I've had that same pause time thing.
But it's like if you could rewind time even just a little bit, you could go a whole season of shutouts, 82 shutouts in a row.
I've thought about that too where I'm like – in my fantasy i'm such a fucking maniac i'm like yeah but like every third game i'd let one
in i think just so that like you know they knew that i was kind of real oh yeah you'd have to
you'd have to like not you know like you couldn't like with spidey sense you know i could i could
bat a thousand but you don't bat a thousand. You hit 348.
Break 400.
It hasn't been done in a while.
Hey, Kyle, kiss my ass.
Yeah.
That would be great.
And that's exactly what I think we'd all do with it.
Fuck fighting crime.
First of all, it's not like in comic books that they make for children.
You can't just go out and fight crime. How often have we even stumbled upon a crime that we would stop if we had powers?
Never, right?
Maybe once, twice in our entire lives?
It's very difficult for you to stumble on your own crime scene.
That's true.
Then how are you going to be a superhero stopping crime?
That's what Batman's always out doing, right?
No, but they have the police scanner.
In all of those things, he's got a police scanner, so he
goes to the...
It's a thing in progress.
And he also just watches the city.
He watches the city from the top of buildings,
and he can see all that shit.
I feel like you just become playing video games on Easy Mode.
Woody's Gamertag logo on clouds when they want me.
Yeah.
Like Batman.
You would very quickly get tired of
fighting crime if it was just criminals of like muggings and like you know assaults on the street
because like you go down there like one punch man uh that show that i watched one episode of was
pretty interesting like where you just win the fight there's nothing that you going into the
fight you know there's no chance they're gonna fight you like they're gonna win i mean they could have a gun a knife whatever you're like i'm a
superhuman so you're gonna get bored instantly the only thing that's not gonna be boring is that
breaking every record in multiple major sports and getting so much pussy your head spins that's
the only thing that's not gonna get old and so you just to live that life yeah i'm gonna make a big web it's a powerful
argument yeah i don't need my sex swing anymore i'll just fucking web one up and put her in it
on the go you are so fixated on the web ability open that door behind you it's my only ability
i'm spider-man it's all i could do if i could somehow fight people and envenomate them and
kill them or something i would would, but I can't.
All I can do is sling the webs and jump.
But you're so strong.
Can you still see the swing if you open that door, Kyle?
Can you show it to us?
Is it set up right there? Steve, check this out.
This is real.
It's not set up as a sex swing.
It's set up with all the
athletic yoga stuff for stretching
and stuff, but yeah, it's right here.
He literally bought a sex swing
and I didn't know that it was dual
purpose.
This is real.
I love when he does this.
I was hoping he'd go upside down.
Get upside down, Kyle.
This is
a real...
What show is this? This is a real... What show is this?
This is a weird
podcast.
That's
a pretty neat sex swing. But like, Kyle,
my whole point is that if you are
Spider-Man, Spider-Man doesn't just
have web. I don't know all of his
powers, but I'm pretty sure he's really strong and really fast
as well, like faster than every human.
And so you would not go in the NFL and if the quarterback overpassed it, go and go grab it and bring it back to your hands because then the jig is up.
You would just be the best wide receiver in the history of humankind or the best.
Pick your position.
In my fantasy on this, when I score, I jump on top of the field goal things, you know, the horizontal part.
What is that called?
That's called a field goal thing.
A field goal thing.
But I just feel like there's a goal line stand, right?
And everyone's there ready to, like, go up against each other.
And I have to somehow find a hole.
But instead, I jump so far that I stand and balance on the uprights, whatever they're called.
But no, but I agree with Taylor
that the jig would then be up.
So, okay, what about a power like flight
where all you can do is fly?
You don't have super strength,
you don't have super speed,
but all you can do is fly.
You can fly at like 15 miles an hour.
World's best magician.
That's all you gotta do.
If you can fly, then you become a magician.
And that's your trick.
That's your trick. You work it into dozens
of different levitation bits and all kinds of
things. Like, you could
use your power that way. Oh, you could market
yourself as, like, Fly Guy. Yeah.
That's your... Well, you know, what you intentionally
do is you would start out, like,
building your cult following by showing that
you could levitate, like, four inches
above the ground and get the devout people and then over the years as you
know the DVDs yes you sell DVDs and what this is happening in the in the early
thousands now yeah not even no not blu-ray VHS whatever medium you want
fucking fly and then you slowly increase it like like over time and people are
like you've learned to get better can't it would be one of those like science discussions where they'd be like for so long people have
denied that you know taylor the aviator is able to to lift off the ground but now evidence is
becoming too much to resist you know over to you fucking whoever like it would be a news thing and
then eventually work up to like levitating in basketball stadiums and football games the
nightly news with john whoever yeah the nightly news with with steven reporters like that um i i
think that like for that like you could still be like you could be a great defensive outfielder
but then what you know what i think basketball probably the best because you'd have hops
that would be good. Or you could
just do a constant angels
in the outfield thing where just even
on like not, you know,
it's just a total no risk game.
You just load up.
What's the power
that like there's a superpower
like
there's an actual like superhero that we know of
that has that would be
the most useless for selfish gain uh any of those people who have a superpower in uh where they like
look grotesque but they're like super strong like the crocodile fantastic four yes the thing yeah
anything where like you couldn't put on a suit and walk into Subway without everybody being like,
the fuck? We gotta get out of here.
This is an emergency situation.
Even though in all of those comic books,
they put a suit on them and everybody's like,
oh, that's normal. That's a regular guy.
Like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
who would wear trench coats and hats.
Oh my god. You've got a shell on your back
the size of a 55-gallon barrel.
That suit ain't cutting it, bro.
You have no nostrils, sir.
You have three toes!
And no shoes on.
No fingers.
Whenever you're talking about the guy on subreddit
who lives in the sewer,
I was thinking about the Ninja Turtles the whole time.
So this whole time I've been picturing him like Donatello
clickety-clacking away on his keyboard with his hate.
Yeah, it was Donatello. He was the shitty one, right? Well, Steve might regret taking on Donatello clickety-clacking away on his keyboard with his hate. Yeah, it was Donatello. He was the
shitty one, right? Well, Steve might regret
taking on Donatello.
That's true. I mean, this guy,
like, legitimate rage might come at me with
like a bow, or
a scythe, or
the nunchucks, which, by the way, that's how I learned
what weapons were. Perhaps a quarter
staff? From the turtles. Yeah, from the
turtles. Absolutely. Yeah, the katana blade. Yeah, and those were the four weapons were yeah perhaps a quarter staff from the turtles yeah from the turtles absolutely
yeah the katana blade yeah that's what and those were the four those are the four blades um yeah
that that's one of those things that like every now and then there's like a pop culture phenomenon
and i love the teenage mutant ninja turtles when i was growing up and there's something that like
you look back at it and you're like how the fuck did this become a thing like how did this become
a thing yeah yeah i remember I had all those toys.
I remember four or five-year-old me.
I had the turtle van.
It shot the pizzas.
I had the fucking turtles.
I had the He-Man shit too.
I was crossing two fucking...
I was in the middle of a thing there where He-Man was dying off.
I don't think there's any...
I don't think anyone younger than me knows anything about fucking He-Man and Skeletor and any of that shit.
I had the castle.
I had the He-Man castle.
I had all the action figures and my fucking shitty cousin.
I had the best toys when I was growing up.
I always did.
Sure, you had a sex swing.
Yeah, my first sex swing was nicer than that.
You should have seen that.
The junior swinger. But it seen that. The junior swinger.
But it was outside.
That's the Cadillac of child sex swings.
I'm going to tell you right now.
Yeah.
No small parts.
Avoid choking hazards.
Yeah.
Kyle's not into small parts.
No.
Kyle's very into small parts. No. Who was I talking about?
Kyle's very into small parts.
He hates big parts.
Yeah.
But yeah, He-Man was awesome.
Yeah, my cousin took all my toys.
I had the full He-Man set, and I had a Play-Doh factory, right?
I had like 80 different kinds of Play-Doh that came in a big toolbox of Play-Doh,
and they were all organized, and you would put them into things and squish out the the play-doh stars and make stuff with them and all that stuff had to go in storage when we were moving houses when i was like five years old
and my cousins got to it and the next thing i knew all the play-doh was dried out he man had
marker all over him skeletor was lost to the wind. All my expensive toys were taken. I had a kid
try to steal my Pokemon
Blue game when I was
I got it like almost right when I came out.
I guess I was
just three weeks ago.
No, I was maybe like seven or so
and I had it and we
were playing all day, me and my friend,
as you do, and as he was leaving
he was like acting
suspicious in a way that another child would not notice but an adult definitely would and i was
like walking with my friend to the door because his mom was there to pick him up and he was like
holding his shirt like the way a kid would hide a boner but we were too young for boners and he
walked up there and my dad you're never too young for boners never too young but he too young to get one should clarify that's not a thing and my dad was like
rich Richard lift your shirt up the shirt up before you go he's like why
what it looks like Richard lift your shirt up and the kid lifted his shirt
owners and like a little sneaky bastard, my blue Pokemon color cartridge fell onto the hardwood floor.
And I was like, it was the first time that it had crossed my mind.
It was like something of mine could have been not mine anymore.
Like I could have gone back downstairs and been like, there's no Pokemon to be found.
Like I would have looked around and I would have been blamed for it.
And I was,
oh man,
like that was one of those moments as a kid where I'm like,
oh man,
like dad,
you've got this figured out. I really saw through that.
Like I would have never guessed.
I would have never guessed that an eight year old going like this,
eyes darting around,
you know,
was hiding.
My father is Sherlock Holmes.
As your dad walks away,
they start playing there goes my hero.
Did you permanently unfriend him uh it was such a young age before facebook but yeah yeah it was definitely way
before facebook uh so it was kind of just a thing of like oh well that sucks and then like after a
while it's like well i do need someone to trade my fucking haunter to so it evolves so you want to come over that was about how it went um i i i always wonder about like the people who who like
green light stupid ideas that end up working like do you know what i mean like you have in mind like
like no like the turtles you know like the like the guy who made the decision of like yeah this
is gonna be a thing you know or yeah Or yeah, Chiz just said Pet Rock.
Yeah, or Chia Pets.
Yeah, like the idea of the thing that works.
Because there are also people on the other side of it.
Like, you ever stay in a hotel that has an alarm clock with the iPhone 4 plug-in?
Yeah, yeah.
Someone at that company, someone convinced that hotel chain
to spend millions of dollars on those.
And they were good for like six months. and now they're all completely obsolete and make the hotel like you can have a tv in a hotel
that's 10 years old and it's fine but like if you have a like a four and most hotels you stay in now
have those and it's i want to know if that guy still has his job oh he doesn't need a job he he sold bows
to everybody oh no no no i don't mean the guy who sold him that guy is a genius i mean i was saying
that it was a dirty trick that he convinced them to buy his own wares oh yeah but i i mean like
the there's like there's a guy in corporate who he convinced. That's what I mean. The guy who made the decision.
He brought a PowerPoint in and he bamboozled him.
I wonder about this kind of USB connector.
Has this thing not kind of run its course?
The USB 1 style connector.
Those work with everything now.
They do right now.
Yeah, but you see, Steve has the new one.
I got this one now.
Because I'm a baller.
It kind of sucks.
They're a little slower.
There's a 50-50 shot of getting it right, and it always takes three tries, which is weird.
And it just sort of sucks.
Yeah, it should really take two, by the way.
It should take two.
Well, but it takes me three.
Because the first one, you're always impatient i guess i maybe i didn't test it nope am i oh it's hdmi what the fuck god damn yeah right
cable i've been trying to plug this ethernet cable into my television for half an hour
yeah but you're you're right.
And those are eventually going to run their course
because they make things universal
and they change them.
Every car is going to look dated that has one of those
as a charging station or something.
Yeah, every airplane is going to look dated
that has one of those as a charging station.
It'll be a long time, though.
I think they're going to stick around for a while.
USB 3 is pretty fast.

Alright. I've got uh ama questions here oh nice
you should look at those do you have to be heading off soon steve i got like five minutes or so and
then i gotta gotta take off okay cool let's do a couple of these questions do you have any in mind
already kyle or just looking at them now um some of them are just terrible um let's do those i don't like how every single time
we get our patreon questions the first thing that one of us says is ah this is so this okay i said
one of us to try and share the load mr frodo but it's always fucking kyle share the load
does uh does legitimate rage have any questions for me?
They don't have names next to them.
Do you have to buy a special hat?
To do what?
I don't know. That's all he said.
Kyle.
Yes.
Did you end up buying that hotspot thing
so that you could stream?
Yeah, it's not fast enough.
In theory, it was going to be. It didn't work out.
What was the symptom?
Not fast enough. The speeds are really bad.
On the upload?
Really both. The download was pretty poor too some of the times it really
it depends on what side of the house i was on um sometimes it would be like three down three up
uh sometimes it would be 10 down 1.7 up um just wildly different uh unreliable service
oh is my um internet my camera i mean to say fixed yes thanks thanks cheers for letting me know
oh well i don't know they i was on the subreddit and they were complaining about
uh lack of live streams and pka plays and stuff like that and i don't know i just take it
personally where like everything is my fault in particular. Nice forehead.
I just got to say this. I just wanted to give them something
more to complain about.
And I'm like, damn,
they're like, why does Woody have to do,
have to be in everything? And it's like, it's
not that.
I don't know. I was the one most likely to
record and upload and stuff.
Anyway,
I was wondering, I thought,
I still think
if you live streamed, there's a
better than average shot
that you could be a popular live streamer.
Sure, yeah. I wish I had the
capability. I've got one of the questions
if you guys...
That was one of the questions, kind of.
Oh.
So if you could, if you could, would you go back or I guess I'll just read it the questions, kind of. Oh. So if you could,
if you could, would you go back,
or I guess I'll just read it the way I said it.
Would you rather go back to your birth year as the age
you are now, or go back as a newborn
and relive your life?
So, basically...
Would you have your knowledge?
Yes, your knowledge now,
back to whatever year you were born, but you're this age.
And so by 2017, you'd be double your age now. Yeah whatever year you were born but you're this age and so by 2017 you'd
be double your age now yeah i do that or you can choose to be born right now i can't imagine a
scenario in which not resetting my age is better like why would i want to be 44 year old starting
again like that's just terrible and then and and the thing is like all the things i know like my
biggest superpower would be picking winning stocks.
I followed stocks since I was a teenager.
And sports teams.
Yes.
Come on.
You knew what you – all you need to know is what a few teams did.
And even if there's a year where it's fuzzy,
but you know that like the Phillies made it to the series,
that tells you what happened in the entire NL East.
You can derive lots from little tidbits. the Phillies made it to the series. That tells you what happened in the entire NL East.
You can derive lots from little tidbits.
You're right.
I know a lot of Super Bowl winners too.
Especially if you tell me the two teams,
I'll remember which one came out.
You know what I would love to do?
I would love to go back to college me
and just be like, hey,
don't be intimidated by college girls
because college girls are terrified of life
like ah so you go back and get yourself laid more in college well at the time well not just
laid more but less rejected less often i think that's the first step you know let's let's not
go to the advanced class quite yet let's try and lessen rejection before we actually boost success
you know yeah i don't know why i would want to be 44 in 1973 because by the time i know about good shit i'll be like 60 yeah also also
what i would really do is just take everything i know about comedy and just start doing that when
i was 12 and just have my own tv if you go back you could be like the world's most prolific
joke stealer and you're the joker from the future yeah and steve hovind releases you people are all
the same just a month after releasing hilarious you know he's the most diverse comedian we've
seen in years we don't know he
released one called the leather special that was horrible but we forgive him you know i just love
the idea of like he's got some really great insights about growing up a black man in america
all of chris rock's material in his voice too you know i don, at first I didn't like all the N-bombs, but goddamn, if he doesn't know our plight.
This dude has fucking empathy.
I tell you what.
So you would choose Woody to be born in 2017,
like a newborn this year.
Wait, I don't think, that's not how I read the question.
Did I misunderstand the question?
I thought I could go back at 1973 with all my current
knowledge and relive life.
Well, my way is more interesting, Chiz.
We're doing it
my way.
I got a show tonight. I got a peace out.
Hey, kill it, man.
Everyone's better for you.
You guys were awesome, and thank you so much.
And I just, if I could just say one more thing.
One more thing, Steve.
Where do they find you?
What would you like our subscribers to know about?
Check out my YouTube channel.
There's a whole bunch of new content up there all the time.
Tons of stand-up in addition to the Heckler stuff.
If you know me from the Heckler stuff, cool.
But I also have hours and hours of free stand-up comedy on my youtube page as well and some people are like how come
all he sees your heckler clip i'm like i don't know did you ever try googling steve hofstetter
stand-up comedy did you ever try to i never thought of that before like well that's why
i didn't find it um so anyway yeah check that out you can also check me out on twitter or instagram
or uh i hate snap. That's fucking stupid.
But I'm on it because I'm a slave.
I'm on it.
I just hate it.
But yeah, on all that stuff.
And come see me live.
I'm still doing a 65-city, 18-country tour.
I'm almost done with the States, but then I hit Canada and most of Europe.
So come see me live.
Glad to see it's going so well for you. Good with your show thank you guys coming on bye see ya he is one of
the good ones i'm having a good time tonight oh this, this is a good old fashion family anti-Semitism.
Or was it anti-Irish?
Yeah, it's hard to tell.
No, but he's not actually Irish.
He's red hair. He's the red hair.
Honorary.
I mean, all those Lost Kingdom people
seem to very much be attracted to the
redhead Irish lassies, you know,
that they're trying to go up there and
rape. They don't make bones about the fact that
they are very, very raping.
I like that.
Chiz, can you confirm that you're fixing
whatever layout just changed?
Working on it. Alright, thank you.
You know what? I'm not producing this show, but I still feel
responsible.
I like that there's no...
They don't sugarcoat that there would be
a lot of rape. And it's not that I'm pro-rape and that I'm like, yeah, yeah, I like a show with a lot of rape in it.
The more the better.
That's not it.
But I do like realism.
And if there's hot chicks being taken captive by barbarians and there's not some rape, I'm just as like, hey, well, why would there be rape as if they don't slaughter all the men?
Like slaughter all the men and enslave the children and fuck the women.
That's what they would do. So if they don't, all the men like slaughter all the men and enslave the children and fuck the women that's what they would do so if they don't i'm just like it would be ridiculous if they didn't because it's a history or not a history channel show but it's about the vikings
like it would be like a nazi show where they showed like you know a bunch of ss officers
finding some gays or something and be like ah and now you will go and uh be alone for the rest of
the war and that that is it you will alone, and that will be the most intense punishment.
You won't even be able to speak
to fellow homosexuals.
How's that sound?
Is this The Last Kingdom?
Not good, eh?
Not good.
It'd be totally undermining
and downplaying the actual shit that happened.
So you need to show the slaughter, yes.
The Last Kingdom does have
an adequate amount of rape in it, I feel.
And slaughter.
And slaughter, yes.
What I found interesting about the last
kingdom was how much value people had right in many of the wars they very much don't want to
have they want to lose men whereas it seems like in other wars when romans are going into it they're
always prepared to lose like half of their people but here they're like yeah we can rebuild villages
many times but a warrior can only die once it It's like, aha, that makes a lot of sense.
And people have value, even women and children, right?
They're like, oh, yeah, that kid, I want that kid.
He'll become part of my family.
We'll do a thing.
That woman, you know what?
Turns out I love fucking women.
So I want this many pieces of silver and a woman.
Then we'll just bring some of them in here.
And none of the other shows do I find that people have much value
but in this one they do
it's like they have more value because there are so few of them
it's like a thing where if they go into battle
with 30 men and they're
fighting 30 men in a different war
tribe or whatever and they lose
12 guys it's like
oh well fuck if this happens
again in a year
we're shit out of luck because we can't afford
another one of these things we can't we're going to be like russia after world war ii where there's
just no men left and you know not you can't keep your civilization hardly going and not even a
civilization your little hunting tribe yeah so romans had armies with hundreds of thousands of
men and i mean rome had a population of one million, so they could expend thousands of dead soldiers,
but by the Dark Ages...
They also had roads, which meant that they could move
their soldiers way easier, whereas
these people, these Vikings, are like,
oh, we need to get reinforcements.
Well, I hope it doesn't take
them two months to trek across the
frozen wasteland to get here, because if it does,
we're all going to be dead by the time
that happens. And it's like, well, should we even make the trip to save them no they'll be dead long
before like whatever the fuck they sound like like i don't know yeah i haven't watched much
of vikings um yeah watch vikings i just started that yeah i haven't watched much of it but i'm
aware of like kind of the gist of it uh i've caught bits of episodes and it looks like it's
well produced it looks like a good show.
I like the guy who's crippled. Have you gotten to him
yet? The guy who's paralyzed from the waist down?
In Vikings?
No, I don't think so.
Later on, this isn't a spoiler because I don't
even know who the fuck he is, but there is a character
who is paralyzed from the waist
down. But that is not
an excuse not to still be a badass
warrior. So when they're in like the
hall or whatever he's like crawling around on the floor and he's got like a sharp stick in each hand
that he like just jabs into the ground and crawls with and he's totally ready to like fight from the
ground if he needs to with like knives and stuff and they hook him up with a chariot that'll like
hold him upright and he's got like horses and and and now he's a fucking like
he's a weapon you know he's fucking on the chariot and everything i thought that was pretty cool
though that did i'll i haven't got to that yet i'm sure i'll like it but it's interesting seeing
the religious stuff they talk about they especially more in the history channel show
they're focusing more on uh like the christians over in obviously the england area verse the pagans who worship odin
thor and freya and all those gods over in the north scandinavia area like it's interesting the
way that like the civilization that has to fight and kill one another to survive like all of their
glory and all of their like good things that their gods like is like yeah it's really it's not just
not a bad thing to go over there and slaughter their their people and their children and all of their like good things that their gods like is like yeah it's really it's not just not a bad thing to go over there and slaughter their their people and their children and their
men and then take their women and and goats it's actually a good thing like the gods are like super
stoked on us when we do that because it's like it's clearly a thing where like when you live in
a frozen tundra wasteland and nothing grows and all of your surviving comes from pillaging other
areas that are able to grow food you kind
of have to rationalize to yourself like huh man if the gods think that killing other people is
wrong then we are in some shit because that's all we've been doing and so we got to make sure that
our religion kind of you know glorifies the behaviors that we utilize to survive i don't
know i thought that was i think that's. Yeah. Their religion's really interesting to me.
The whole, the whole like conflict of those two religions where the,
the Christianity is so pious and like they find something wrong with
everything's a sin. Everything is a bad thing.
There's all these rules and regulations about how do you live your life.
And then the only complete other end of the spectrum,
you've got the Vikings over there who like their version of heaven Valhalla is
like, it's, it's all about fucking and drinking and partying constantly like yeah yeah yeah it's
like we'll go somewhere where forever we'll just sit in a big like mead hall and like drink endless
tankards of ale and fuck bitches and fight other glorious warriors and yeah that's like when they
were explaining it in the show it's they're like what's vahala he's like well you go to odin's hall and you drink and you fuck and then every night you get in a giant battle
and everybody dies and then the next morning odin goes and everybody goes right back up and they're
clashing their horns together and drinking and i was like man like a great this sounds like like i
remember thinking this sounds like it might hurt a little right like i'm gonna be it's okay though but learning about the ancient weeks and the ancient norse
shit like in school or just reading about it because it's always been interesting to me like
the gods i always thought like god damn like these gods seem like really way more down to earth
and like not as upsetable over things like if i if i piss one of them off really bad i can be like
odin like thor is super pissed at me so i just going to be praying to you for a while.
Eventually, he'll ease up on me.
With Christianity, it's like, man, there's only one of you, and you are not happy.
He is the only fucking show in town.
You can't even go to Jesus, because he'll rat you right out.
This doesn't spoil anything for the Vikings, but I hope it makes you watch it.
There's one scene where a guy is getting crucified
because it's easy to forget that
it wasn't just Jesus who got crucified. That was just
a way of capital punishment back then
for certain people.
The guy was like, it showed he's getting his nails
driven through his palms. He's got the ropes
holding them on there, which
I think is the historically accurate way
to do it, where the nails
didn't actually hold you up.
It's the rope that holds you up.
It's just the nails to like humiliate you and be in pain.
And so like he gets nailed to the cross through his feet and his hands and
he's up there doing the cross thing.
Then they like push him up on it and you see like the boom,
boom,
like jarringness of like him being like pulled on his hands against the
nails.
And he's up there for like 45 seconds as the people who put him up there are like,
you are sentenced to die for blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then the guy who comes around, the king comes,
and he goes, cut him down.
And so then they just bring him back down off the cross
and get a fucking claw hammer
and take the nails out of his hands.
And it's like, holy fuck.
That wouldn't even be, I don't know know it was just such a permanent kind of punishment
your hands are ruined your feet are fucked like forever i would assume like if you have a nail
a giant thick nail driven through your feet there's no way you're gonna be able to walk fine
yeah back then good good point. You might
just get an infection. Or bleed
out, right? I don't know what
the veins are called on your wrist, but you could die.
They put it through the palm.
They did different stuff.
I've read about this a little bit
and there are people who, to this day,
reenact crucifixions.
I know they had those things in Mexico
where they do crazy shit where they fucking crucify a guy
and they actually put nails through his hands and everything.
But yeah, they would sometimes put it at the wrist
and sometimes at the palm, but it would just rip
out if that was all that were holding you up.
So there's all those ropes and oftentimes
there's a little pedestal that the guy even stands on
at the base. But I think the whole point
is that you're supported by your arms
and kind of hanging there and it's hard to breathe.
Every breath you take, you have to basically lift your body with the breath every breath so each
breath becomes harder x you know and it takes a day two days with christ he didn't die from the
crucifixion you know they they land they stabbed him in the ribs with a lance right and of course
he was dehydrated after a whole day of torture anyway, and they were
giving him vinegar and a sponge
instead of water, so
dehydration and blood loss,
I guess. Yeah, you just slowly
asphyxiated. Can we talk about fitness?
When does that come up?
Well, I was about to talk about Jesus' core. Like, you can't talk
about Christ without talking about that fucking core
he had. That's true.
He was incredibly was
he was a stout guy carpentry is i've always suspected he was a swimmer
he doesn't think he had to yeah he never had that's actually a good point he was a cheater
walking bod but uh so fitness what did you want to jump off with i i guess we do an update every
week um i'm i've been really disciplined this week in terms of diet not wildly successful in
terms of weight loss i'm down seven pounds and uh from last week's pka that's a pound down which is
good but i know that i'm barely it i'm at like 213.8 or something like
that and i just ignore decimals and um and also i hit seven down on like either the day after the
last pka or or that saturday so for me i've been at the same weight for almost a week and it's just
where i am but on the other hand i've been eating with discipline and I've been more active.
So I feel like I didn't really fuck up and cheat a lot.
I just didn't have wild success.
Whatever.
I'm down a pound from the last PK.
If that happens every week, I guess I'm fine.
Well, yeah, you're trending down.
Like, at least even staying at the same weight isn't like a relapse.
You're still not, you know,
gaining weight,
but it is disappointing.
I know what you mean when you like feel like you're doing so good.
And like five days later you weigh yourself and you're like,
God damn it.
Like,
I don't know.
It just seems,
it seems like it goes in bursts sometimes.
And I'm sure that it has to do with like water weight that you lose where
like,
like one,
like over the course of one week you lose like four pounds.
And over the course of the next week you lose like half a pound or maybe i'm just wildly inconsistent who knows
but i so i've been like my behavior has been good oh i bought a kettlebell it's not arrived yet i
bought it off amazon today so i'm getting a kettlebell i am i didn't know what weight to get
but i found an adjustable one it goes from from, I think, 16 to 40.
Or if not, it's like 16 to 36, something like that.
And I think Taylor's stronger than me.
And he said 35 was pretty heavy, right?
That was the first one you got, 35?
So I was like, oh.
Yeah, I have two 25s and two 35s.
And I'm getting a 50 when I feel like I can handle that for the like overhand stuff well anyway I if
I recall correctly your first one was 35 so I was like well my first one might be like a 25 or 30
and this will give me a little growing room and whatever so I'm adding some kettlebells into the
routine um try to look better a tight shirt I mean you never saw a fleshlight with a big labia, did you?
Not once.
Not once did you see a fleshlight
with two gigantic butterfly
lips fucking laying askew
on the outside. No, not one motherfucking
time. But they're usually not full innies either.
Ha! They almost always
are. That's just because it
saves on rubber. They almost always are. They're almost always
perfect innies when you get a flashlight.
There's no meat hanging out of that bitch.
There's a little labia on them.
It's the tiniest bit.
The tiniest bit.
It's an innie labia.
Super tiny on those things.
I'm just saying, Woody's mom.
I have been sticking to the workout stuff pretty good.
Definitely keeping the workouts going regularly, not so much the diet.
At least not – the diet can get real bad sometimes.
Last night I was telling Taylor at 4.30 in the morning I got the – I got a hankered for peach cobbler.
So I whipped up a peach cobbler at 4.30 in the morning, and it turned out –
Your life as far as making a cobbler at 4 30 is just oh i was so
like i feel like kitty is seinfeld coming out and you're kramer in the kitchen making a peach
cobbler and she's like kramer what are you doing in the kitchen it's 4 30 in the morning and you're
like jerry it's peach season jerry you know jerry they're only good to the fifth you know
i gotta get these made It's papaya season.
Have you tried the papayas?
You know, Kitty is just is like, I don't know.
Her sleep schedule is like the same as mine.
And, you know, she was like, no, I don't want any peach cup.
You know, there's plenty of nights where like three thirty in the morning. I'm like, do you want me to cook this or do you want me to cook that?
You want French fries and burgers at like three in the morning? Yeah'm like, do you want me to cook this or do you want me to cook that? You want french fries and burgers at 3 in the morning?
He's like, yeah, I do want
french fries and burgers.
I'll cook them up.
Last night, I cooked up that peach cobbler.
Unfortunately, it was a disaster. I used the wrong flour
and I had to throw it all out.
Don't you wake up feeling rough
when you eat a burger at 3?
No. I never wake up feeling
any worse or any better because of anything I've eaten or drank the night before.
I've never noticed that at all.
Like I always wake up and I'm just like, all right, we're good to go.
As long as I get a fucking cup of coffee in me in the next – if I were to like get up and not shower and drink my cup of coffee, that's a fucking shit day.
I'd rather not live that day.
Like I don't want that day.
Like that day. Like, like, like I don't want that day. I like that day's that day's trash.
If I can't wash my face and drink a cup of coffee,
then,
then what's the point?
I don't want to exist in that world where there's not a shower and a cup of
coffee when I wake up.
But as long as it is,
I'm good to go.
My sleep schedule has been good.
Like since I got that BPAT machine,
I don't know when that was like two months ago,
almost a month and a half ago.
Um,
my sleep schedule hasn't been this reliable since i stopped working at cisco so i'm that's good you
always feel better when your sleep cycle is on you don't feel like you wasted like a whole day
like even if you wake up at like noon and you didn't have anything to do anyway i always still
get the feeling of like well look at you couldn't be bothered to
wake up like in the a.m at the very least that's because you're not taking advantage of your 3 a.m
time like there are some times at like 2 a.m 3 a.m i'll do stuff though like i'll come up with
something to do at 2 or 3 a.m i'll be like you know what i should do that and then like i don't
know i'll clean the basement up or go wash my car at two in the morning. I do all kinds of crazy shit
late at night.
I'm sleeping four hours a day, Jerry.
Yeah, like Da Vinci.
I sleep 20 minutes every three
hours. Fine.
I like getting up early.
An hour and 20 minutes a day?
Yeah, it's fine.
I'll get up, have breakfast, exercise,
do a thing, maybe accomplish a thing, and then it's only 10'll like get up have breakfast exercise like do a thing maybe accomplish a thing
and then it's only like 10 30 in the morning and that's that to me is really neat like when i
when i live a part of my day and then there's a lot more day still to go i like that i like that
too because then like if you do take a break and it comes around to like three in the afternoon
you don't have to be like well aren't you a waste of space you can be like well i got up and i got stuff done so not totally
no i like i like starting that day late it's it's almost like there every day is a journey up a hill
and if you sleep late somebody else carries you halfway up the fucking hill you wake up
holy shit i see the top there it is right I'm just going to jog right on up there.
God damn, it's 5.
I could use a little 45-minute nap.
You're like a very lazy Sisyphus.
I'm going to recharge here.
I'm going to recharge, and by the time I wake up,
hell, it'll be getting dim outside.
I also like when it's 7 p.m.
For me, usually around 7 p.m. it's like, you know what?
No more is getting done today.
From this point forward, I do nothing but fuck off, right?
That might be the internet.
That might be watching a movie.
That might just be family time or whatever.
But I rarely get a lot of work done at night.
So something about that is nice when I get to just be like, hey, don't expect anything.
I'm done now.
You flip an off switch now if someone comes to you after you flip the off switch and they need not just some
garbage taken to the outside not just could you open this jar of pickles if they need you to like
go get tools and clothes on like your socks too not just your shoes because it's going to take a
minute if they need some shit done, like, how shitty is that?
That happened two days ago.
So the bedroom doors, they're very heavy, and there's two of them.
So they're heavy enough that they take four hinges instead of the normal three.
And my wife is like, this part fell out of the door.
And it's the, like, cylinder that goes through the hinges.
And this one's weird in that it doesn't have a cap on it. There's like two caps so the cylinder can
fall out. And
anyway, I'm like,
and I go and look at it and I see
the parts and I'm like, this is a
daytime job. And she's like, I just want
to know that the door's okay. I was like,
you come back to me in the daytime. I'll look at it.
And then it was just like, I am
shutting this shit down. I am
not doing your... It is like 9pm. We know I'm not at it. And then it was just like, I am shutting this shit down. I am not doing your...
It is like 9 p.m.
We know I'm not working now.
You don't call 911 emergency services
for this horse shit.
If it was a fire,
I would change the rules.
But a door hinge...
This is a tomorrow problem.
This is a tomorrow problem.
There are some problems that take precedent,
and I hate those problems.
Sometimes shit will go down, and you're like, all right, my reality just altered.
There's no way not to just full-on address what just happened and make it the – what were you going to say?
I did something like that just a couple weeks ago where I was making bacon in a pan, and obviously there was a bunch of grease in it that I wanted to dump out because I was making a sandwich.
I was just eating an entire package of bacon at this point, I think, actually.
I wasn't making a sandwich in this one.
Is this pre-diet or post-diet?
No, this was during diet, and I was like, for the day, I was like, all right, I'm just going to eat a fuck ton of bacon, and I'll stay under my my calorie goal and it's enough protein with these shakes but whatever so i made it all in the uh in the pan and my garbage can was like
full of garbage it needed to be taken out and i wasn't thinking straight at all i was just
out of the zone so i took my the hot grease and just absentmindedly this is like fucking two
minutes after i'd stopped cooking it so of course it's still hot i i i took it over dumped it into the garbage can and immediately it just goes and burns through the
entire plastic sack and the sack goes and it rips down and then there's trash everywhere in my now
bacon grease covered uh trash can this is at like 10 15 at night throw the trash can out the door
and i just back in i
was like i like had that thought i'm like all right if i just leave this big pile of garbage
and bacon grease in the bottom of the of the garbage can with this like little you know uh
hula hoop of plastic still around the top you know i can handle that tomorrow right and i was just
like oh man this is gonna be so fucking gross as that hardens and calcifies overnight
and glues garbage to the bottom
and so I just had to scrub it out
and take that under control. You could have thrown away
the trash can. That would be my choice.
I probably should have because it's just a regular
kitchen trash can, but
yeah, that was one of those things.
It was my fault.
You know what I mean? It just ruins your night. We were like,
you fucking idiot. Only an idiot does that.
And you just did it.
Yeah, I think it's worse.
When Kelly and White Boy were staying at my house, Kelly, I think she was borrowing one of my cars.
And she was backing out of the driveway at my other house.
And she backed over where the water line was, like where the water meter was, the water box.
And she crushed it and broke the main water line that goes in the house.
And it's just spraying water.
And I'm like, ah, well this is my
evening now. There's no not doing this.
I can't even take my shower after the
day of work without addressing this.
I'm just in a hole with a hacksaw for
an hour. It wasn't her fault
or anything, but it was something that had to be addressed.
That's way worse than the bacon piece.
I don't think you ever saw that driver.
You had to back up a hill, up a concrete driveway,
and then you had to cut your wheels twice.
It was not an amateur driver kind of backing up thing.
I don't know her driving history.
I didn't blame her at the time.
There's an AMA question that kind of ties into fitness.
Kelly's a wonderful person. i like her a lot uh but she is responsible for the things that she drives into
right we all are but this is this is like at my at my house in my car and she just didn't know
it was there it's it's something that anybody could have done so i didn't care there's an ama question that kind of ties into fitness here
of oh i should really fucking oh yeah what are some your kettlebell routine like i i feel like
it's a cheat sheet and it would save me lots of time compared to learning anything on my own
yeah i'll just i'll just type it out to you but like speaking of the working out i'm i have worked
out at least three times a week for like an hour hour plus and i haven't missed one yet so i've been going like it's six weeks now
and i haven't fucked up wait it takes you an hour to do your kettlebell routine
uh it like about like if i'm really really quick with it like 45 minutes 50 minutes but usually
like an hour i might have to work up to that i might take all of
your set recommendations and divide them by three because i'm gonna be fucked
but it's yeah i feel really uh exhausted afterwards because like you know you got a
good workout when like the last thing that i'm doing is only like another set of 10 push-ups
and by like eight it's just like shaky and so difficult
it's like a weird
juxtaposition of feelings there and of course
people who have been working out for a long time are like no shit idiot
yeah this is why we've been saying we like doing this
but like that feeling afterward of like
kind of feeling shitty and sore
but it's a good shitty sore because you're like
you did it to yourself and it's good for you
but yeah I'll send that to you
and oh the question I linked question to a pretty good one yeah that's not the one i'm doing but i'm sure that's
a good one too but i yeah i haven't missed a workout yet thank you at least three a week
for six weeks and uh the diet's been been good for the most part on the weekends i cheat some
but not too bad i need to get better with that but um the question they had was what are your some what
are some of your favorite healthy slash low calorie meals you guys have discovered since
you started your fitness regimen and the best one i have is uh blts with turkey bacon and as long as
you don't expect turkey bacon to taste like real bacon it's pretty good it's still meat you know
and you can you don't have to eat nearly as much of it to get all the protein that you get in regular bacon so it's like lower calories never had
higher protein per calorie and i just and if you get great tomatoes i've been getting my tomatoes
at whole foods because credit where credit's fucking due their tomatoes are better than
walmart's you know so i'll pay the extra 60 cents but those are really fucking good tomatoes they
have there but um and then just regular like don't know. I bought kids bread because apparently to buy adult bread in the section,
you have to be willing to eat like 160 calories a slice for bread.
And then it's like, this is a 600 calorie turkey sandwich.
Like, Jesus Christ.
So I just got kids bread, which is 80 calories per slice,
which still seems like quite a bit for bread.
I don't know but yeah that's a
really good low carb or low calorie snack that i recommend highly i've been completely avoiding
the bread thing it's part of keto and i just do bread substitutes like sometimes i have a salad
so it's not really a substitute sometimes we'll all use like a pepper as the container instead
of bread just like put whatever you're going to have in there in a pepper.
But nothing I eat is actually good.
What are you putting in the pepper?
I don't know.
My wife would make a turkey thing or a tuna and tomato inside of a pepper.
Whatever.
I don't know about the tuna.
Tuna, I think, is one of the better things you can eat.
Yeah, tuna's pretty good.
I just don't like canned tuna very much.
What I've accomplished thus far is I've lowered my food standards.
You know, things that I used to turn my nose up as flavorless and not filling,
I now think this is my life and I'm okay with it.
And another thing,
I have a certain kind of food snobbery that I've accomplished,
right?
Like,
like I'll see bread or sugars and be like,
no,
that doesn't belong in this temple of mine.
You know,
your,
your shitty body might be an amusement park,
but this is a place of worship.
Or at least it aspires to be.
So, yeah, I look at naughty foods and just think I'm better than that.
I like shredded chicken.
I want my chicken to taste like something.
I think chicken is a good, like, chicken's a lot like tofu.
It doesn't really taste like anything until you put stuff in it and make it taste like something.
Chicken's a texture, if you ask me, as far as foods go.
So, like, whatever you do, you should try to put as, this is me talking to the audience as far as healthy snacks go.
I think grilled chicken is a really good one.
But you got to, like, get some flavor inside of it one way or another.
Lemon pepper is a really good way to do that.
You just put lemon zest and lemon juice and pepper
on there and it's really tasty on the grill.
Another good way to do it is to use
chicken thighs instead of
breast because chicken thighs you get more flavor
because it's dark meat. Yeah, I don't like the dark meat.
What? Only white meat.
I don't eat dark meat. That is baffling to me.
I like all meats.
I will not eat
dark meat.
I don't really like meat on a bone either uh there's a lot of things i won't eat i don't eat most pork
um you know yeah most of those things not into that work is excellent my wife has a seasoning
she puts on the chicken i i can't tell anyone what it's called but it's not just salt it's
some sort of seasoning it makes it a little salty a little hot a little it's good in some way
yeah i like putting the whole chicken in the slow cooker um cooking that and then it's just like fall apart
like tender chicken and i like getting that out with two forks and shredding it up and you know
making sandwiches with that or wraps with that or uh good meal is you just get one of those rotisserie
chickens from the grocery store that's just already cooked and then you what you do is you
go home and you put on a show like last kingdom and like it's you know they're having their feast you're like oh yes i am with
you sir and you eat your you know thing at the same time it's even got the viking cup i've got
a big cup that's made out of like uh i don't know what it's made it's like a i'll find a link to it
i try to drink out of it but it tastes awful for lunch today i had
been having salads for lunch with chicken in it which i kind of like and today my wife was like
hey even easier still i could just like shred up cold cuts like deli meat like ham it was i hated
it so much i like i hated it so oh my god like like sometimes i i eat like like a nice meal and a
pepper and stuff and i think this isn't bad this is a nice healthy lifestyle that i could sustain
other times i have like fucking lettuce and cold cuts mixed together in some abomination and it's
like this is my prison woody you got yourself here this is how you get out
this is poor meal planning yeah yeah that's a pretty cool she had just gotten back from
the dentist or something i'm in on you not her you gotta take you gotta take some of the response
you're like i don't do my meal planning i just I'm more of a manager in this situation.
I don't be too hard on her.
She'd had a long day.
No, motherfucker.
You got to get on YouTube and find some shit
you want to eat.
Sometimes I send her pictures.
Mostly, though, it's stuff I wouldn't
eat anymore. That's stuff I wouldn't eat anymore.
I like to,
um,
one thing like,
like that's what I do.
Like is I get on YouTube and I find the things that I want to eat.
And if someone else is going to cook them,
then I'm like,
Hey,
let's watch this video together.
This is what I'd like you to do.
Um,
and that's,
that's,
that's how I pick most of the things.
That's what I do with Pornhub.
And you blame Jackie on that too.
This is a horrible selection you know
but yeah well we're all sticking to the fitness thing hopefully everybody out there is losing
weight do you know um i'm i haven't weighed myself since tuesday when we talked about it so i don't
know i'll have to do because i'm only doing i'm mostly weighing like one day a week on sunday i'm around 185 oh how much have you put on total
uh it was about 181 with you too at the start about 185 right now all the time um don't weigh
any less than that anytime now so it's good good for you man yeah i should be easier on myself i so if i dude i was doing the math like all right
if i lose a pound a week which apparently is about a reasonable expectation for a guy my size
um it's it was october 26th when i hit my target weight the fuck that seems like a really long time
from now and there's some consolation in the fact that, you know, come midsummer, you'll be halfway.
Like, you know, it's not like nothing happens till October.
But I would just say, God damn, like, I feel like the amount of weight I want to lose is huge.
And do you ever go on those like calculator sites where like I've done that before, where it's like calorie calculator and like weight loss projection or weight gain projection or whatever.
And you put in your stats of like your height, your weight, your sex, your calories, and then you like hit go.
And it'll say like you'll reach your goal of one hundred and ninety pounds in eleven point two weeks at this rate.
And then I start fiddle fucking with it and be like, all right, if i ate what if i ate 820 calories a day what if i ate that many and it's like uh usually
it just says like we cannot recommend eating 820 calories a day but if you were to eat 820 calories
a day you would reach your goal in four weeks and i'm like boom that's what we're gonna do and like
it i don't know i feel better losing weight this way
even though it's much slower than i did when i was just crashing weight for sure but you know
i i should have my pool in june so to get the pool in june and the body in october is a mismatch
that i i can't be in love with but it's's my life. That sucks. Winter is like a coma
where you don't even consider,
like, I should be getting in shape for summer
until it's way too late.
And you're like, oh, fuck, spring is here.
Well, the ship has sailed.
I'll get them next winter.
You know, like, that kind of mentality
is so easy to adopt.
Well, I don't know. Step by step. step I'm out there exercising I'm eating right I did
fucking fat cells can only hold out for so long they're bound to lose if I keep it up I'm so
fucking banana cream protein powder it's horrible because it looks like a fucking packaging looks
exactly the same as vanilla can you not make it at least like the flowing liquid?
Like put a big banana in it and make it yellow.
It's unacceptable.
I'm going to throw it away.
I don't want it.
A personal trainer reached out to me
and said he would help me come up with a meal plan
and do some exercises and stuff like that.
I haven't replied to him because I'm like,
I don't know, there's something wrong with me.
I'm like, ah, you know, I could never take up an offer.
I'm sure he didn't really
mean it he probably meant it he wrote a card he's a trainer like as his profession and his handwriting
is immaculate like out of dude so my daughter's boyfriend was here at the time for prom
we were all doing like handwriting analysis to see if it was a font and like he had just printed this
or something and my um my address has the word deer in it and we're like look those two e's are
not identical like this isn't a font this is this is handwritten because his handwriting was just
outrageously good you see they're writing the letter like one of those monks with the easel in front
of them and that paint, little tiny
paintbrush doing the calligraphy.
Let me text my wife and see if she'll bring
it to me. I don't know if she has it or not.
You should take him up on his offer
if you want to.
You should. I'm sure he meant it.
Worst case scenario is you're like,
I'm not going to do that. That that's too hard and that's it one of the issues i think he wanted me to call him
and uh something about that was like how long is this call gonna be how do we we don't we don't
do voice yeah yeah can i text you it's gonna be a text-based relationship yeah um oh i said can you bring the fitness letter she said what the card with the
handwriting she'll know what i mean yeah we were all like carefully dissecting and i need to show
you that handwriting it It was outrageous.
Oh, she said okay.
Maybe she knows where it is.
But yeah, so,
and he's a fan of the show.
He said he was a fan of the show and of my content,
and I thought that was nice and everything.
And then he said,
I'll make those dry fit shirts look good on you.
And I'm like,
ah, he's a real fan of the show.
He remembers that.
That's an eye-opening thing. That's another way to solve shame that's really useful is to buy uh workout clothes
that are just like the ones that you see on those incredibly handsome mannequins at dick sporting
goods you you buy those and then you'll be feeling good about yourself and then you put it on and you
stand in the mirror and you look at and you look at your fat fucking back.
You look at your punch belly in it, and you just stare for a bit.
I like how you look closer to the microphone when you insult yourself.
You're fat fucking idiot.
Can you see how outrageously good his handwriting is?
Yeah, it's quite good.
I like it. I like it a lot yeah i two thumbs my handwriting is always terrible my thumb kind of hurts it's even
worse right now but that looks like a letter that you would pick up in like uh skyrim as it goes
like and then it's open in front of you and you just read the you know the very fancy calligraphy
letters yeah that's quite good it's written in print which is i for some reason i expect a
cursive uh like a calligraphy style thing but it's just a really nice font of print it's nice yeah
we were theory like the hopes boyfriend was like maybe he does the thing with the ruler where he
writes out the lines and he races the lines afterwards. And that's how all the things are so wavy and even, like not wavy and evenly spaced.
And I don't know.
That's the other thing for the listeners.
This isn't written on notebook paper.
It's written on a blank piece of like paper paper without lines.
And he's written a very well-formed paragraph or so there that looks nice as well.
Letters are all the same size
without the fucking lines you know you can get out of whack pretty quick yeah so anyway i should
call him oh i was gonna say i'm just like having that memory back to fucking like elementary middle
school and shit where like you'd run out of space at the very bottom but you didn't want to go to
another piece of paper and the words start
turning into a caterpillar down the
edge of the paper and stuff.
And the reason that King
Henry did not invade in 862
is because
he didn't have enough men and also
he was sad.
Partial credit.

for i'm giving her for the i don't know this is for the woman but she'd want that i think she'd
but she doesn't listen to the show.
Right.
No, it's just the mom that we've got to be wary of.
And she has no position on capes
as far as I am aware.
Strictly, unless they're lady capes,
as we're now going to call them.
Oh, those are drapes.
Lady drapes.
The drapes.
Oh, Jesus.
My internet connection's still down. I'm glad we went and tethered off my phone and such
otherwise it just wouldn't have happened i'm glad it worked we were uh we were sitting here
myself taylor and our our our guest and taylor was like really sweating getting he's really upset i
could tell and i he's like i just i just hope the recording worked i i would have to start over
but we have to start over the recording because
that's two hours in.
I'll be really mad
if we don't have the recording.
I'm like, well, it sounds like his internet
went out, so probably
he's still recording himself
right now.
I was.
He's like, yeah, you're right.
Kyle talked me off the edge of that.
I was sitting here because I just immediately, my face got hot. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, yeah, you're right. Kyle talked me off the edge of that. Probably fine.
I was sitting here because, like,
oh, I just immediately, like, my face got hot.
And I was like, oh, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no. You better not be fucking gone. You last two hours. And then
Kyle had to be like, no, no. Well, he's still recording.
Like, he obviously wouldn't lose it if he's still
recording on his end. And I'm like, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
Yes, yes, yes, you're right.
Oh, he wouldn't lose it if it was on his end, would he?
Oh, of course not. Oh, oh, God, thank you.
And then I felt a little better about it.
But that was like the level of elation that I felt.
Yeah, I could tell. You got some early morning meetings, I think, on Friday.
So Taylor's never looking to stay on up to 2 or 3 a.m. with us.
Yes, I don't have time for
fries at 4.30.
You've had
first PKA, but what
about second PKA?
PKA!
We've had one, yes.
It's funny how
the first time through things are funny.
It's great.
There's a good vibe and everything.
You tell a joke like try to do a replay of anything that worked really well.
The magic is gone.
Like if we were to like recover that guy with the tinfoil head or whatever, it just it'd be terrible and ruined.
whatever like it just it'd be terrible and ruined and the whole like uh turkey guards or whatever assaulting all those people like having to like fake that again like it's it sucks because it the
worst is like not knowing that the listener can tell you if you're faking it a bit because they
can but it's knowing that the people who are laughing at what i'm saying and what i also said
the same thing 40 minutes ago they also know that
i'm saying the same thing you know and so it's like oh like i feel like i remember we like back
in the day you do dual comms or something right and uh you know everyone's new to youtube in the
cod community at this point there'd be tech errors and stuff it seemed like a third of my dual comms
were ruined so then like me and the other guy it's like i guess we do it
again then he's like telling a joke he did before i'm fake laughing at it and i'm like man not only
is this not as good as the first time around but now you know that i have the like i could be fake
about it and and it's like i've exposed myself yes now you know the level to which I can fake it.
Yeah.
And it was just like, man, it was terrible. It'd be better to do a whole different conversation even if it was worse because that's better than the first one.
I feel like some people probably could have benefited from that, right?
And then you get a second take.
There was one time I did a dual comm with someone, and this is ancient history.
But I said something I regret about another YouTuber,
and I faked tech issues.
I'm like, ah, the whole time my voice wasn't recording.
We need to do it again.
This time I won't say regretful things.
That's pretty funny.
Oh, no, it's all been lost.
Oh, and it's being dragged to the recycle bin.
Someone's remote controlling
my computer.
This is some swordfish shit.
I don't know what to do.
It was a dual-com I did with
Saspen Jr. Some people might
remember him.
I totally lied and said that there
were tech issues and we had to do it again yeah i saw that guy stone mountain uh he makes battlefield
content it gets suggested to me a lot um he's funny yeah he's funny i wonder if he'd like to
be a guest on pka is he funny all the time i wonder so uh trying to think you know i guess we'll briefly cover the
trump thing it's there's a special investigator a special prosecutor what new has happened since
tuesday i'm not really up on it oh since, since Tuesday, the senator, whatever.
So, of course, you know, he fired Comey.
Now there's an acting person there.
That acting guy, Rosenthal, maybe I might have his name wrong.
He appointed a deputy special counsel is what he's called.
And his job is basically just to get to the bottom of this thing.
He was the CIA director under both Bush and Obama.
Apparently both, this is W, both W and Obama were very happy with him.
His name is Robert Mueller.
And apparently this guy is the dream choice from Republicans and Democrats to get to the
bottom of the whole Russian connection thing.
And I want to get this right. It included two things, like the Russian connection and maybe
a campaign thing that he has going on too. The only downside of it is it happens kind of in
privacy. It used to be handled in these Senate hearings out in the open and such.
Now it's like we're going to find out the results a year from now when everything is over.
So but, you know, at least the truth will come out.
We'll see.
A similar thing happened to Clinton, except I don't think he was a um a special counsel i think he
was something else like a investigator and they started looking they were with clinton this is
bill they were looking at vince foster's death that's a thing that a lot of people like to say
he murdered this guy vince foster and some sort of real estate investment trust and that witch
hunt just took like every turn until they eventually found
him uh in adultery he was cheating on his wife and that's and and more than that like cheating
on his wife was a problem but like it was the perjury not perjury but lying in front of it is
it's perjury when you lie in front of congress or maybe it it is and and he he kind of obstructed justice, but it was about covering up his extramarital affairs. So some people were like, per, bribing someone over a golf course, you know, which is not where it started.
So we'll see what the deal is.
But, yeah, now there's a guy investigating Trump, specifically starting with the Russian thing.
Oh, also, he can subpoena
apparently anything like if this guy wants trump's tax returns by law he they have to turn him over
if he wants any campaign documentation their emails all that stuff um they can he's able to
request it so all right i wonder if they would like ever subpoena ridiculous stuff. Like, all right, we're subpoenaing Twitter for all of your deleted tweets.
For the history of your account.
Oh, that's already a thing.
That's already been, I'm going to say this wrong,
they cataloged all of his deleted tweets, right?
For perpetuity.
Yeah, I'm sure Twitter has every single tweet everybody's ever tweeted.
Twitter, but the U.S. government.
I read
websites a while back.
Even non-government stuff.
I'm sure Kyle's right, but I think that
I don't even know what it is, but there's a domain
that specifically helps you find
famous tweet tweets.
Isn't there something like the Wayback Machine?
Something that shows you old webpages?
Yeah, it shows you what the internet looked like.
I just wanted to go to Twitter.
You can go to your YouTube channel
back in 2011 and see
what you can see.
You can see what kind of design
you'll see that old...
Remember, you used to be able to really customize your YouTube
homepage, like your home channel
page, and have all kinds
of designs and graphics and stuff.
Of course, give credit to
some fuckers didn't you have like really good branding and it was like tan and like artistic
and curvy yeah i had really good uh channel art because i had someone who for some reason liked
my stuff and was really fucking good at it and so for a while there i had really good so i remember
woody telling me like god your background looks great and so then when it finally changed and they changed it to the new layout where it wasn't like your own page with like
your banner at the top if you're a partner that says your title or whatever like i was like and
then with like the column at the side that's got your subscribers your views your fucking when you
joined your little description i i was like unreasonably upset when they changed that format
i was like oh it's all over like what am i gonna do i don't know why taylor like i'm making up numbers but taylor might have had like 50 000 subs at the time and his branding
and art and such was as good as the million sub channels or better you know and and i wanted mine
to be good and all my ideas were kind of like and i hated myself for it but it was like huh
how much can i copy Taylor without copying Taylor?
Where is the line?
He's clearly the answer key, so maybe I'll get a 93 on this test and still be happy.
That was my approach to Channel Hour.
But then people worked with me who were also good, but I always really liked his because like mine was good but his had like a
class to it and i'm trying to find it on this wayback machine this is neat i've never looked
through this you've never looked at that no i've never like gone back and checked on my youtube
page but i'll do that another time this is yeah okay now's not the time to go down memory lane
no especially when i'm having trouble finding a
good goddamn picture of the ah oh well impatient it's asking me yeah i am impatient you mean you
can't just immediately search through the annals of history and provide me with the content i'm
looking for that's ridiculous yeah yeah that's neat i i wonder how big is that internet ad boycott people stop talking about it
did it get better or are people just adjusting to it internet ad boycott oh like pete advertiser
saying i don't want to be on this channel or that channel kind of thing yeah there's like an
adpocalypse and and people's ad rates were cutting in more than half or something like that
people's ad rates were cutting in more than half or something like that.
Chiz
found it for Taylor. He can't
not look.
This check-in?
Like when they sent out that
where they were like
yeah, nothing before 2011
for me. That's weird because my channel's been around since
2010. But I
remember when they were like, hey, we need you to put
this pre-roll and this post roll
on all of your videos for like the oh like machinima thing spun around and i did it for
like i did it for one video and then i forgot for the next video and then nothing happened when i
forgot and i was like i'm just gonna not do it again until someone mentions it and it you know six years strong so
are you still with machinima uh i yeah i think i guess i still am i just i just don't do anything
so i just kind of a passive thing uh i um yeah i don't know i i machima, I guess, left me.
I guess I could have technically stayed with them,
but they changed my rate or something in some extreme way, so whatever.
I ended up going to Atomic.
I don't know.
Machinima is still around?
I guess so, if you're with them.
They do their thing.
Yeah, I mean, if a Titan like Taylor is still buoy i guess so like if you're with them they do their thing yeah i mean if a titan
like taylor is still booing that uh that organization then they must be around like no
it was uh it was nice i always thought of myself as machinima is like that uh
one of the soldiers of one of like the shitty lords that they only called upon when they were
in real deep shit where they're like you know know, call on the rest, the small ones.
Make them tweet this.
Make them like that.
You know, we're in real trouble here.
What will happen if this shitty little channel
doesn't like all of FPS Rush's videos?
And it was like, goddammit,
you can't have FPS Rush on one of my videos?
Give me a little help.
But, obviously.
Yeah, there were times where i really felt like sometimes i was treated well they had a thing with their like top 10 or top 20 channels that
got like a special support and a different person dedicated to me and i was in that group
and then there were other times like getting promoted videos where it was like man you know
like it seems like you're promoting
everyone but me and like you know with the size of what i've got cooking right now i should be in
that group of cool kids and and every so often i'm doing special effort videos like usually they
were musical and uh and i'm not getting any kind of push i did what i don't know you give a yeah
i feel you i just remember at the time the thing that like
bothered me was i like having my channel like all those halo live action videos or whatever and it
was just like god because at the time machinima was so machinima was so enormous it was like
they just would upload it leave it on their home page for three days and promote it on respawn and
whatever other ones they had they would have you know 10 million views or something you know 5 million views whatever something bananas and it was ah in
retrospect it was just so annoying when they wanted me to make my channel because now i feel
like your channel's home page doesn't do very much it plays a trailer but people don't go to it that's
not how they find videos back in the day though the pre the like auto play on your channel was significant like
for a channel like mine i might get 40 or 50 000 views because that thing is auto played
on my channel page and they would want me to put their shitty halo videos as my auto play
and it's like i'll do it but for like three hours you know so i can say i did it and then i'm
putting my own shit back on there.
That's all you get.
You know, you want me to be that much of a team player.
You got to fucking be on my team, too.
You know, I can't just be take all the time.
And that's kind of where I felt like they went wrong.
Yeah, I didn't care for that.
Especially, you know, all the I think I put I bet there's still three videos in my dropbox from 2010
like or 2011 or whatever for those machinima things your wars or whatever yeah where it was
like hey do you have your videos in your dropbox it's like yeah you clearly haven't opened my
dropbox because if you did you'd see ah videos in the dropbox like with titles and like all they're done but yeah after a while i
just stopped i remember putting them there so i was on the phone with people from machinima i think
it was optic something or other and uh maybe one of the dubois or something aaron dubois and uh
anyway what happened was another network had fired up and they had offered me a higher cpm
so i was like hey machinima love you guys don't want to leave but i'm getting this other cpm there
can you match it and they eventually had me like fly out there and and talk to them in person
and in a cube somebody's like they had taken a picture of benedict ar, put my face on it and pinned the fabric in their cube.
And,
uh,
I'm walking around like the machinima's offices and it's like,
the fuck?
Like this is what they think of me here.
Those assholes.
But more than anything,
it's just wildly unprofessional to,
to be in a biz.
Cause at the end of the day,
it is a business,
you know?
And if you, if you're a big performer and someone who is bringing in views for them and then you walk
through their office and it's a picture of you with like darts thrown in your face or some shit
it's like oh that makes it that's a good work environment hooray those guys are running that
thing we're doing cocaine in the back yeah look at that look at that shit like as i say the word
cocaine chiz is like they did coke there!
Laugh my ass off.
I don't name any names.
I'm not talking about Hutch.
I'm not going to name any names, but I'm certainly
not talking about Hutch.
The higher-ups there were...
Yeah.
I'll fucking say it. Yeah.
A lot of coke.
What?
C-Nanners may have a very calm and soothing voice when he's I'll fucking say it, yeah. A lot of coke. What?
Senators may have a very calm and soothing voice when he's making those
videos, but at night time, he gets all
coked up and goes on
whore rages, as he calls them.
Whore rages.
Whore rages.
How do you know that they were doing coke in back offices
there? It wasn't even
back offices. It was very well known.
On the pictures of Woody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They take a picture of Woody, lay it out, fucking snort a line,
do a rail right off Woody's calf, a picture of it.
No, it was poorly run from the start.
The people running it were idiots.
They mismanaged millions of dollars,
blew millions and millions of dollars.
I remember me and Sam, XJaws,
when we used to get in these Skype chats
that predate this show,
that were kind of the origin of this show,
the fact that we would get in those Skype chats and talk,
we were always like,
what the fuck are they doing there?
They got 140 employees or whatever it was.
What did they do?
What did they do?
Give me the job titles of these people.
And I've been there a time or two or whatever.
I used to defend them. I used to be like, you you know what i'm sure they're doing much more than we
realize it's a very complicated it takes 140 people just to scrape um you know money off of
everyone else's channels whatever i uh yeah and then they didn't defend me back.
Yeah.
That was a poorly run organization over there.
They had it all in the palm
of their hands at one time, and they let it slip
right away. I mean, they had so
many big gaming YouTubers
all locked up right from the start,
and they mismanaged the stage to it.
Yeah, they had a damn near monopoly.
If they had taken that...
You could be with...
I was going to say, you could be with full screen.
You could be...
I mean, Yowsh was a thing.
I don't know.
There were a bunch of choices.
Makers was one.
But for whatever reason, at the time, if you're a gamer,
if you're not with Machinima, it was like you signed with second tier.
Even though those other ones in the long run turned out to be better. But you were second tier if you weren't with Machinima, it was like you signed with second tier. Even though those other ones in the long run turned out to be better,
but you were second tier if you weren't with Machinima.
Yeah, that was definitely the thought at the time.
But yeah, that was a poorly run organization.
It was, I don't know, money had to have been.
You saw the projects that they invested in and you saw the
decisions they made with content
creators that, you know, to me
and you we were like, well that's Sandy
Ravage, someone should really hang on
to him, he is a, like I would have
seen Sandy Ravage in the middle of Modern
Warfare 2 as a real fucking
asset, like a guy that we need to be
exposing right now when he's
red fucking hot
to as many eyeballs as we can garner as machinima as a network like sandy ravage was so hot at one
point he was so and everybody loved what he did and it was marketable you know and it wasn't even
personality based it was just like there's a thing called sandy ravage that isn't necessarily a
person it's just a channel that's fun that gets these millions of views, a quarter million views of him just running around with a shotgun.
There were so many talents that they mismanaged, didn't take advantage of. Let's slip away.
And then the money that they did invest, the tens of millions of dollars in projects like
Mortal Kombat or any number, take your pick, the Halo series they did, all that live action bullshit,
where they're going and hiring someone else,
someone else's product,
and paying them a premium to make content
when they've got a full-
So they just hired a production company, basically.
Yeah, yeah.
What I'm saying is they're like a baseball team
with this huge minor league system,
and they've got all this
fucking talent but when it comes time to play big league ball they go and buy like free agents from
all the other uh established networks it didn't make any sense it was like if you're gonna make
a mortal kombat show fucking stick hutch in that bitch fucking stick hutch in that bitch at the
height of his YouTube popularity.
He doesn't...
Make Hutch the guy who's under
one of the masks of one of the main
Mortal Kombat guys. You don't even need him
doing Kung Fu. Just let him make a cameo and you'll get
an extra million views or something.
They completely mismanaged their talent pool.
Wasted tens of millions of dollars.
And it was...
Even that office they had. There was no need for that expensive office right there in the millions of dollars. And even that office they had,
there was no need for that expensive office
right there in the middle of LA.
Yeah, you're not saying it,
but I'm putting it together.
Yeah, and some of the people
that really did get the push, right,
that seemed to be in the front line,
who was the bad player from Europe?
He used to...
I don't even know if he was...
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's another old guy, right? Yeah, he used to i don't even know who was it yeah yeah yeah yeah he's another old guy right
yeah he used to throw smoke can't can't can't burn can't something can't be can't burn yeah yeah
he was uh the junkyard of england yeah yeah and then junkyard got a huge push and then guys like
sandy ravage and me got nothing you know and and i was popular you know like
i would look at random days and stuff and be like oh you know i'm the 65th largest or fastest
growing channel right now i was never in the top 100 largest but as far as like fastest growing or
most views i 60s was kind of my home and uh you know that's pretty good like by comparison 50s is where you'll find casey
most the time like you know 55th most views but and of course everything's bigger and like
you know they were generation leapfrogs previous is accomplishments but every step of the way and
that was very early like like with the machinima stuff, you know, because Modern Warfare, Call of Duty, especially Modern Warfare 2, I guess, made Machinima.
Like that game made Machinima as much as it made so many YouTubers, as much as it really blew up.
Well, I guess Cod Forehead already came and made Activision a lot of money, but it was just so successful that all ships rose with the tide of that game.
and a lot of money, but it was just so successful that all ships rose with the tide of that game.
And Machinima, before then, had been a small thing,
and guys like Junkyard and Ken had been long-time loyal guys
that had been working there, and I think that loyalty
was paid back to them in fucking spades
for like two years after their time had clearly passed you know there were guys who had
been doing other kind of content machinima content uh in some cases and then all of a sudden the new
norm is call of duty commentary which requires you to either be really fucking good at call of
duty or be funny or quirky or interesting or smooth or informative or something your voice
has to add a thing to the gameplay most of the time
unless one is just so fucking good
that the other doesn't matter.
I used my voice to hope that nobody
even paid attention to the gameplay.
Yeah, sure.
Because then it would betray that it was not good.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Because people like to listen to you
just bullshit around.
I was always surprised
that you didn't do something
like Lefty did, but not quite
so pretentious, like go in your backyard
and smoke a cigar while you talk to the camera.
Something like that.
Some kind of vlog.
I should have done that.
Mayhaps. Who knows what the future will hold.
I've still got my machinima
contract, I guess.
In perpetuity. In perpetuity.
In perpetuity.
They probably have to pay you $2
They probably have to pay you a $2 CPM
whether they like it or not.
What is the current state
of gaming on YouTube?
I see PewDiePie livestream.
I see that. It seems like a lot of gaming
has moved to Twitch.
We talked before about my work ethic.
I used to make two, like, commentated Call of Duty videos on above average gameplay a day.
And someone was writing, I might have saw on the subreddit, I'm not sure, that by today's standards, they've leapfrogged anything I've ever done.
That people put out, like, you put out six great videos a day.
That's bullshit.
That's bullshit.
All right, so I'll tell you who I watch and what they do.
And maybe I'm wrong.
Maybe I haven't found the – because there's so many out there, and I'm not plugged into a network of interconnectivity.
So I could be missing some guys.
But I've mentioned them before.
I really like that AccuLite guy.
It's A-C-U-l-i-t-e
and i really like jack frags um they they both do pc gaming and they're both very very good at it
those are the guys that i watch and what are their videos like is it um half well they um
i think they both do multiple games but primarily primarily what I watch, of course, is Battlegrounds footage,
and that kind of lends itself to half-hour videos
that have multiple playthroughs in it.
Because it's a battle royale.
I've described the game, but each game can last two minutes.
You drop in, get in a crazy gunfight.
Maybe you win a little, you make a little progress,
but then you're dead, and it's just a real quick like crazy shit show but then your game might be 25 minutes so he'll
mix like 30 minutes of good content together both of them seem to and and i love those videos but
like so it's is it just him like uh what do they used to call it not a live com it was a live com
yeah it'd be live com style stuff where they just
take their comments as it's happening and edit it together into something it's a mixture because
they both seem to do a lot of different stuff sometimes you get twitch stream highlights
which i which i like um they play duos a lot which is two guys or squads even which is four
and so it's it's live commentary but it's more like live teamwork you know it's
there's so much communication required in that game already that it's a constant conversation
going on about who's where and what's where and like competitive very much so um
so yeah well i wouldn't say that outworks the sort of thing i did no i wouldn't either that's
what i was getting at is is like and what i what i was gonna say isworks the sort of thing I did. No, I wouldn't either. That's what I was getting at.
What I was going to say is the amount of videos that they upload, it seems like one every other day.
One every day, maybe. Something like that.
It's not 20 videos a week or I'd be consuming it.
It's just good moments from the previous day and such.
They're both so good that they win the game fairly regularly like you
know maybe five eight times a night in a play session like they're they're often winning they
probably win 10 of their games you know that take take the first place out of 100 um and so
you know every one of their clips there aren't too many of those that i described that that i
usually have where i drop in i play for three minutes it gets intense and then I die they get really deep into the game it seems fairly regularly or at least
regularly to to show it happening two or three times a day every day I would bet they just
figure out what not to do that's a big part of it you know it I only know the game casually but
stay away from this section don't do this kind of risky behavior there's you know the game casually, but stay away from this section.
Don't do this kind of risky behavior.
The baby buffalo stuff that ends your night.
Sure.
Yeah, there's a lot of that going on.
They're very good, though.
There's a huge skill gap.
I still suck.
I'm still so bad at it that I can get turned on quite easily.
I got turned on.
I played a game right before.
I took my entire gaming setup and moved it upstairs so that I can get turned on quite easily. I got turned on. I played a game right before. I took my entire gaming setup
and moved it upstairs so that I could
play in my bedroom.
Before I moved it all back down
here to do the show tonight, I got a few
quick games in.
There's a guy running in a field right in front of me.
I'm like, ah, get him. I go, bang, bang,
bang. I hit him the first two shots.
Then I kept missing.
Just bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, and the sights are like real life so you got a holographic sight and he's 50 yards away
and moving around it's a hard
fucking shot at least for me it is
but those guys I described their videos
they destroy people that's why
it's so satisfying to watch
they're just fucking insta killing
people all over the map making long
shots at sniper rifles and shit
hmm
sigh what do you think of our guest making long shots at sniper rivals and shit.
What did you think of our guest?
I liked him. He did well tonight.
I liked this appearance better than his previous appearance.
I can see that.
His best appearance yet, according to Kyle Rave Reviews.
You should title it that way.
That's not clickbait at all.
I meant to ask him.
I like business stuff so much.
I often want to talk to
a YouTuber who comes on.
How's the channel doing?
What are you doing over there?
How's the apocalypse treating you?
Who's the other comedian
who invented the scorpion?
He was on that Ninja beastman you know ninja
warriors before there was ninja warriors he seemed to do a lot of comedy things like in these great
vacation resorts what was his name he's on the show oh that guy that we were talking about with
tonight's guest in the interim what will the the john something another guy the guest
that we had previously right john henson the talk soup guy yeah yeah the talk soup guy anyway what
i'm saying is rogan told the talk soup guy hey go on podcast get your name known then you'll be a
guy who can like fill up any comedy club and there's a career in that. It's not impossible to achieve.
I wonder if that's the same business
model that Hofstetter comes on. He's like,
I go on PKA and now I'm in shows
and people are like, I liked your PKA appearance
more so than their Joe Rogan appearance,
more so than their Adam Carolla appearance.
I wonder if that's what he's doing.
I just like being able to fill up comedy clubs
because there's a job security and
business model there.
Yeah, it's good business for comedians to be going on podcasts as much as possible, getting themselves out there.
There's so many comedians, it's hard to get known.
Yeah.
Or was he coming on to promote his new gig?
He had his best year ever, and he also took on a day job.
What's the motivation there?
I don't know.
It's a pretty good day job though.
I bet he's going to be able to hook his own career
quite a bit from that position.
It seems like it's something like
a ton of networking.
If you're going to go on the road,
it's one thing to go up yourself on the road.
Like, hey, yeah, I'm Jim and I'm in town.
But if you go on the road with Louis C.K. or something,
let them headline.
If you could go with somebody who was already
it's like getting to fight
the same night as Conor McGregor if you can network
just right and make some friends
yeah
anyway I hope he does well
yeah I hope so too
you guys want to call it a show?
yeah if anyone wants to play Battlegrounds with me not you fuckers
because I know you won't but you cool kids
out there in the world you know hop on Steam and play with me sometime Not you fuckers, because I know you won't. But you cool kids out there in the world,
hop on Steam and
play with us sometime. I'd love to play some squads with a good
squad. That's
hard to come by. I like communication. I like people
who can shoot.
Real team player here.
Alright.
So, Chiz, I guess you'll wrap
it up. That's PKA episode 300.
Any post rolls? I don you'll wrap it up. That's PKA episode 300. Any post rolls?
I don't think so.
All right.
Ha-ha.
Yeah, so this time I'm not pressing the button.
We could be recording or not.
I really don't know.
