Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motormouth outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland. If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Twisted metal, streaming now on peacock. Oh, you... Oh! I Drink a certain inner sweaty room There's no beer and not just Oh, and I were the Contra that life It's a Tangerine Tangerine
Starting point is 00:01:20 Tangerine Tangerine I guarantee you that's a totally original composition. Fucking sick of that song. Is it not every week? That is the greatest song. No, it is not. It is the most obnoxious.
Starting point is 00:01:31 I mean, the song itself is fine, but any bar you ever go to, somebody's going to start it, someone's going to start singing it. You just want to like look at it and just shut up. Ladies and gentlemen, Brandon Farmer, me. Yo. I am here working to eat at my stupid reputation. You know that you guys have built me. You know, I think what really ruined that song and pushed it over the top was the sopranos finale.
Starting point is 00:01:53 I feel like that song was already played out and then like that's playing during the very end of the sopranos. Oh, how snappy. And then like ever since then, I feel like you can't go more than two hours out here in that song anymore. But you know what I'm talking about? somewhere like a bar of people just want to speak into which I was driving home the other day and you know we have the Irwin Center here in Austin which is like I guess our biggest concert venue and I saw that there's going to be a concept on September 22nd it would be a concert with foreigner and night ranger opening for journey. Oh my gosh. Yeah, he's not in it anymore. Right?
Starting point is 00:02:27 No, no, no, they replaced him with some other guy and then they replaced that guy with a Filipino dude who sounds just like Steve. I heard him. Do you know, I used to... Is it the kickboxing guy? No. I used to walk my Steve Perry everyday in Studio City. 6 a.m. I get up. He had like hip surgery or something, right? And I do my morning walk. And the first time I walk by him I'm thinking, oh my god, that's Steve Perry, right? And so it's a little bit kind of, wow. So then the next day happened, and like week after week, I got to the point
Starting point is 00:02:55 we were the headbob like, hey, how you doing? So how's the hip? Yeah, yeah, that's the hip, oh man. No fucking clue who those first two people are. Steve Perry. Not a very great way to start the podcast trying to eat at that reputation. She's very was the lead singer for Journey and who went on and did um he did a couple of solo songs who was his big one um oh Sherry yeah yeah we have Kathleen here as well by the way I forgot to introduce her and Joel and Gus. I'm Joel. Hello, Joel.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Everyone's, uh, everyone feels kind of low energy is it because, uh, I just got derailed by that whole conversation. It just derailed me. I just don't like turning. No, I love turning. Oh, yeah. Love that song. I think song's awesome.
Starting point is 00:03:37 That should be like the, the main topic of the drunk tank is derailment. Derailment? Whatever. I feel like everyone always has an idea of something they want to talk about when they come in. I totally disagree. But what? I don't know. You think, what? Every time I've gone in and had an idea of what I was going to talk about, I feel like I've had more success than when I've just shot off a hit. And unfortunately when I hear derail, I can look at Joel's eyes and I know we're going to talk about the derailment of the United States, so I don't know if we want to go down the road. Well, there's a lot of people who don't understand what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:04:09 So I think the more I talk about it, the more people seem to be confused. So I don't even know. It's amazing how many people come out of the woodwork. Or it's like, I'll say what's going to happen. And it happens. And people go, well, Jolime explained you Bulba and it's just like just so I I'm gonna look it up here, but I'm curious to see if
Starting point is 00:04:33 Someone invested in double goal last week help up they would be by this point. Yeah, but so Real thing yeah, oh that Joel is just funny. What is double gold? It's a double long. It trades at a multiple of two. So when gold goes up 1%, it goes up 2%. Exactly. When gold goes down 1%, it goes down.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Is that something you're only doing Vegas or something? Is that a vacation? It's not. I had to tell you about a year and a half ago, I looked at gold and it was about $1,100. And I thought about it, right? I'm thinking, gosh, it tell you about a year and a half ago, I looked at gold and it was about $1,100. And I thought about it, right? I'm thinking, gosh, it's going up a lot. Now I'm kicking myself because now it's $1,700. Don't worry, it's going higher.
Starting point is 00:05:12 This is a long run thing. I mean, in the last week, it's like exploded. Right. Higher, and it's just gone up 10 days in a row at one point. And then two days ago, it went up the highest in one day that it's ever gone. Biggest single day gain ever. And it just continues it went up the highest in one day that it's ever gone. Biggest single day gain ever. And it just continues to go up. And it's, I mean, anything that continues to go up, you're bound to have a little bit
Starting point is 00:05:32 of a correction in it. But it's like, that's a buying opportunity. So last Thursday, double gold was at 5775. And now it's at about 6433. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Wow. Okay. So that's my gosh. Yeah. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:45 So that's pretty significant. Yeah, but I mean, we could talk about when we measured. We're not first bringing this up on the podcast. The double gold the first time was yesterday or last week. Well, we used to be, used to be a normal person, just be long normal like the GLD in back wound. At any point? So like 100, is that 50% in a year?
Starting point is 00:06:01 Yeah, GLD is probably up like 30%. So 50% in one year, I think. At any point, can I trade in my gold stock for like a brick of gold? You can. You can, yeah, you can. Well, I mean, I have to get that. It costs a lot.
Starting point is 00:06:11 Like that, a brick of gold, like a picture, it costs a hell of a lot more than you think about. Like four non gold brick. Yeah. Yeah, I thought before a long time ago when I was trading different asset classes, I was like, wouldn't it be funny just to get a giant bar of gold just to have it?
Starting point is 00:06:24 Yeah. And just like, have it just like, use to get a giant bar of gold just to have it? Yeah. You know, I just like have it. Does it use as a paperweight? How does that process work? Where do I go to get my gold bar? There's different places to sell it. You want to go bar? I get you like going.
Starting point is 00:06:35 You want gold, boy, and I can get you a gold bar by three. Don't go to gold line. So the standard gold bar is held by the gold reserve is 400 Troy ounces or 438.9 ounces. If gold is trading at $1,700 an ounce and say 439 ounces, that gold bar would cost you $746,300. There you go. There's a week of work right there for you. So, we will never have a gold bar paperweight. Is the sort of answer there? Oh, it could. That's correct. And then we'll have enough gold bar paperweight. Is the sword answer there? Oh, it could. Yeah, we could.
Starting point is 00:07:08 That's correct, and then we'll have enough money to do it. Then, and like, how fucked up would that be? To have like a gold bar as a paperweight sitting in your house. That's worth more than your house. Well, it's worth more than my house. So, when it steals it, where do they go? Like, you can't go to a pawn shop. They're all cereal.
Starting point is 00:07:23 They have cereal numbers? They probably melted down. I would have seen it. Oh, that's yeah, that's yeah. You can do it. You can melt it down and then sell it off the little chunks to gold buying places. Oh, that's smarty.
Starting point is 00:07:31 See what I would say. I know. Is it this is like, um, yeah. This is like the slowest week for video games, right? I don't know. Okay, for Ninja. For Ninja. Come on. Well, there wasn't a single retail release this week.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I think for Ninja was the big thing coming out this week. Gus, did you finish LA Noir? Yes, and all the DLC. I don't know. I got to a point where I was just kind of like, you know what, this is just not fun. This is just not fun anymore. I'm not going to finish this game.
Starting point is 00:07:56 This is just like homework. Everybody does that. I don't like walking around on the street, waiting for my controller to vibrate. What point did you get to? Midway through the second disc. So you were like on, what disc is that? Was that like, you probably didn't get the mic.
Starting point is 00:08:12 It was the murder that was exactly like the previous six murders. Oh, right. Right, that one. I know where you were. You were right before it really starts to take off. No, that whole game was solid the whole way through. I felt like some of the black dolliest stuff early on
Starting point is 00:08:26 was a little repetitive, but. You feel like it was going somewhere, right? Like obviously this is a big picture is going on. Well, it's the best part where the newspapers, but I feel like newspaper stories were changing and I just, I wasn't even apart. Like I had no idea I couldn't participate in the previous ones.
Starting point is 00:08:42 So I was just kind of like, how can I just forget about this guy? How do I just transfer and do those other stories? Because that really seemed fun. You know how you do it? If you play in the game. Because the newspaper ties into the story. This guy right here. So is there an end to it?
Starting point is 00:08:59 I mean, you played through it. I saw people that wrote online. The game goes on forever. Well, you know, I don't know. I don't have it played it, but I've seen people say they were disappointed. I thought it had a good payoff. I like that. You're okay.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Yeah, it was really good. There's a lot to be said for the arc that the main character goes through, I think, throughout the story. And I think by the time you reach the end of it, it's really satisfying. I'm not even sure how to get into it without ruining it. Yeah, I'm trying to get into explaining it without, you know, like it's like in Western storytelling, there's certain assumptions that you make as a viewer, you know, and it's like if you can manipulate those assumptions, it's always interesting, I think. Yeah, it's like you, you know, you're so
Starting point is 00:09:38 invested in your main character, then by the end of it, you realize that maybe there were there were other people who were better. Or he was trying to live up to a standard set by another character or some other people. Jeff, Jeff summed that up pretty well, I thought. Yeah, but I don't want to say it. I don't want to say it without really very exact level game. Because it was really good, I thought. Did you guys see, this isn't a game, but the radio controlled car that somebody sent to the guys in Afghanistan and the guys actually utilized it to
Starting point is 00:10:08 Go ahead of them in in the Humvee and it hit the bomb as opposed to the Humvee getting hit. Oh, that's cool Yeah, right like some a toy Well, like you know if you you know if you play Call of Duty everyone's sick in the same thing where it's like in Call of Duty If you get a certain number of kills and you get a little Control car car that That's right. But it has explosives on it and you blow it up in your enemy. I just saw a doctor. I think that's underutilized in society in general.
Starting point is 00:10:33 I think that could be used to solve a lot of problems. I saw a documentary this past weekend and as part of it they were talking about like weird technologies and like whatever, okay. But one of the things that they talked about was in the US armed forces when they're deployed in a combat situation that lots of times enemies will target the fuel tanks that are, like the big fuel tanks that sit on the back of their vehicles. So they'll shoot a hole in it and then fuel is spilled and they can just light the fuel or the US soldiers run out of fuel.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I guess this company up in Oregon invented this technology, they call battle jacket, where they coat those fuel tanks with the special three layer coating. So if it gets shot, the hole instantly seals and only like, oh that's a good, tiny droplets of fuel spill out. It's like a run flat tire. Yeah, and they demonstrated it. Like the guy got an AK-47 and shot the single holes and like maybe a drop spilled out I'm sure there's all this secret James Bond type technology from the private sector that we just don't know Yeah, like like the guy who who developed it was like, you know, we heard that you know the insurgents think that they missed They've been just been missing the fuel tanks. Oh my gosh
Starting point is 00:11:40 I'm gonna show them like coding a giant like fuel tanker like you would see Going out to refill a gas station or something. Right. See then I'm always a person that says why don't they make the jackets and the helmets out of that kind of stuff and then somebody says oh because it's just too expensive. Like go. Well the bullet goes through it.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Oh it does go through it. Yeah the bullet goes through it. Oh okay. Never very good for a fact. Oh for a fight. Why don't they make that whole airplane out of the black box? Yeah right exactly. That's it.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Exactly. Like I think we have a parachute on it or something. We need bulletproof skulls. Yeah. That's the only thing that freaks black box. Yeah, right, exactly. That's it. Exactly. I think we'll have a parachute on it or something. We need bulletproof skulls. That's the only thing that freaks me out. Bulletproof clothes, that's good, but... Oh my god. ...get a shot with your face. Take it and inject that stuff directly into your skull.
Starting point is 00:12:16 I have to... We have to... Battleshack it applied directly to the skull. Battleshack it applied directly to your skull. When I was in college, I did a ride along with paramedics down in Long Beach and we went on a call and it was supposedly this guy got shot, that he shot himself and so we got there and the guy's on on his bed there's a little bit of blood and there's a little bit of blood behind his ear but you know the paramedics he was fine he was talking they were checking his vitals
Starting point is 00:12:40 so they had to do protocol they had to get him to the hospital and they're like yeah you know we don't know you might just have you know been on drugs or protocol that to get them to the hospital. And they're like, yeah, you know, we don't know. You might just have, you know, been on drugs or whatever. So they get them to the hospital and they're doing their paperwork and they go in, the doctors take the guy in to do the x-rays on the head. There was, he did shoot himself on the head. The bullet was the type that when it entered it fragmented and it was fragmented in his, in his head. And literally, I mean, he died. There was nothing they could do, but it was a situation that it didn't kill him instantly
Starting point is 00:13:11 and he was fine until then when it started to actually do everything, his eyes, he went into convulsions or whatever. So he got Tony Stark. Yeah, it was, no, it was, so just so you know. It's a verb. It's a Tony Stark. No, it was kind of one of the most amazing gruesome things
Starting point is 00:13:27 that I've ever witnessed. It's scary. That's awful. I feel like somebody shot me with a bullet about 10 years ago that just is slowly, it's just taking its time. I read an awful story on Reddit yesterday about this guy in Chicago who like crossed the street. Then after he crossed the street, he heard a yell
Starting point is 00:13:43 and he turned around and looked and saw a woman on a bike get run over by like a 10-ton utility truck. Oh my God. And he went through a very vivid description of what he saw. Yeah. And it was awful. You know, I feel like when you're younger, it's like, yeah, let's look at this stuff. Until one day you sort of see it.
Starting point is 00:13:59 And you don't want to see it. There was a meta, you know, there's always a meta on set. And it's like, there was this one medic that had a book full of Pictures of like all the different shoes to be work again and ambulance or whatever and had a whole bunch of different pictures of all the things She can't oh my god. God wow It's just like never I remember the sentence. Hey, let me see that book Don't don't say that sentence. So these are the things that they saw not necessarily on set, but maybe. No, no, this was before set that she was at Shorthand Amiens. Okay. And kept a book of stuff. That's weird.
Starting point is 00:14:32 It is kind of weird. I was like, why are you keeping a book? I can't remember the answer. It's always like a shrine. That's weird. I've never talked to doctors and nurses about getting how they get used to that stuff? Yeah. Like, we have these friends, she's a nurse, her husband's a surgeon and he was going to be stuck all day in surgery. And they're trying to have this family thing, but he got out early and she's like, yeah, it's so awesome. He's going to be here.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Apparently the guy just died in surgery. Oh my God. So he's coming to the barbecue. I guess it's a little bit of a fight. I feel like everybody wins. I feel like that's the thing. I feel like all the medical personnel I run across, like when I go to the barbecue. I guess I feel everybody wins. I feel like that's the thing I feel like all the medical personnel I run across like when I go to the hospital Like it's like what you described is like they've been doing their job for so long that they're over it and now
Starting point is 00:15:13 Just like never angry at patients I always get the nurses like come here. I'm gonna get your blood They hate you right here. It's like the only customer servicing where it's like you can just like beat on the You know, you just stab you again. I'm stab you again. She casually described this guy who's just so big. He was walking around in his stitches on his stomach, pop loose and his intestines fell out. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:15:36 We were like in a coffee shop. She was talking about the so casually and I'm here to scarred and I was like, what's wrong with you? I'm not like, how are you not having nightmares about that? How are you not seeing it? It's like, how are you just saying this so casually and eating like your pastry? Yeah, I don't want to get to that point. No, you know, I did that to poor Matt Holm because I showed him a video of this, because I liked watching the real ER because they show that stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:57 They show the real stuff. So I guess I'm one of those people that you don't like because I like watching it. And there was a really gruesome one. I'm not going to tell you, but anyways anyways I explained it to Matt and Matt says oh wow I you know I couldn't I don't think I could stomach that well I had video taped it off my TV no so I tapped him on the back oh hey check out this video Matt and he looked at it and I've never seen Matt mad but he was like oh damn it Kathleen I know I'm so cheesy crap yeah. I was like, oh, sorry, Matt won't do that again That being said I could probably watch glass ass on loop. Oh
Starting point is 00:16:32 Oh It's horrible you see it's wise. She like it's pretty bad You see it a third time and it's just funny. What's your you lay down? Difference between there's also a difference between wow that looks horribly painful and was dumb versus oh somebody died Well if that guy died he might die he didn't I mean before the video started you already saw scars from some previous thing Yeah, you guys want to keep talking about Too much free time All those people who didn't want to talk about gold are like let's go talk about gold Although people who didn't want to talk about gold are like let's go talk that gold
Starting point is 00:17:06 I sure I'm sure if this podcast perspective the financial category. We might have watched Mr. Hands at work the other day. Oh God, I know we talked about it a long time ago. I think when you first started Oh, Gus and I went through a when I first got here Gus and I went through a an exchange We just kept showing each other really disgusting videos on the internet. We had a gross off. That's awful. I don't want to do that again. Good times. Definitely not a conventional working one. I just want to say at this moment, like when you guys put the links on my profile, I'm not going through them. I'm not going to don't embed. Don't put the links. I'm not going through the links. I'm not interested. Luckily, we don't allow people to embed on our website.
Starting point is 00:17:46 So not a big deal. They have seen no problem. You're way ahead of it. But staff can embed. No staff members either. This goes into those guys as well. All are included. I'm not interested. I don't want to see it. This is a chart. I'm only interested in charts. So speaking of video games, I started playing Catherine yesterday if you guys heard of it or seen it Mm-hmm. I heard but I didn't I it's a fucking weird game. It's like what's the full title of it? Catherine Wow, okay. Well, that's weird. Yes. That's a like a Horror romance game. Uh-huh. It's really bizarre. It's like oh don't I take it back a horror romance game. It's really bizarre. It's like, oh, don't take it back. A horror romance puzzle game.
Starting point is 00:18:28 Yeah, it's, yeah. And it's, it's, it's actually surprise, oh, it's for me so far. It's surprisingly difficult. Why'd you get it? Because there's nothing out. Because there's nothing out. Yeah. And good. So I try it. It's interesting now with the wealth of games and how easy and fast it is to produce iPhone games, Android games, Xbox Live games. You have more and more variety. It just seems harder for a new developer to say what kind of game hasn't been made yet? Like what new genre can we invent? I don't know that they're looking for new genres. I mean, it's such a huge investment.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Well, for like a big AAA full release, you know, it's such a huge investment. They want to stick with what works. Well, maybe not new genres, but less saturated to where, when somebody picks on a category, pick a category, they're not going to see 800 other games in the kitchen. It's like movies, I think, though. It's like, you know, in the summer, you're going to see big budget action blockbuster movies.
Starting point is 00:19:22 You know, they fall in that category. I mean, I know everyone tries to hit that like Christmas release, like everything is around that Christmas release. And it's sort of like then everything comes out once and this happens every single year. Where it's like we hit the spell, where it's like, well, I guess I'll go back and play this thing or whatever. And then like all of a sudden, two weeks ban.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Oh, there's this, there's this, there's this. There's no way you can play it all. It's the same thing every year. It's like, why not, let's just, so someone take the chance, just pull the release date for just a break. It's also weird how I feel like the Christmas release has pushed beyond the holidays, and now you get big releases coming out in January and February as well. I wonder a lot of the times just because they can't, they got to push, you know? I feel like it's really stacked October to February, and then there's like a little more, and then it pe. Yeah, I feel like it's really stacked October to February. And then
Starting point is 00:20:08 then there's like a little more and then it peeters off and then now you end up with like this week where there were no retail releases. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I wish we could, uh, I think marketing, if I, I would, I would try to hit the, the dry periods. I mean, kids will buy the game. I mean, it's almost like no rain. I'll buy it. Yeah. I'll buy it. I mean, January is great because that's people get gift cards. They don't get gift cards in November or was viking December the get gift cards in Christmas Christmas and other holidays To buy the games. Yeah, yeah, give cards are amazingly effective. Well, you know, it's funny every year for Christmas That might I mean what Tyler my son was growing up all my my sister would say okay Tyler, which game is it this year? Yeah, and it was always a new Xbox games that he would get. So.
Starting point is 00:20:46 It's always get socks. I mean, that's pretty much how it is. I think I would have been displeased with socks as a gift when I was younger, but I could appreciate a good pair of socks now that's going on. That's totally making that so. It's like socks, yes, and you socks so good. I like target gift cards, you know, it's like, wow, target. I can shop on buy anything I want
Starting point is 00:21:05 They're supporting the broadcast brought to you. I target yeah Have you ever had surgery of any kind or anything like that? I had a tons electomy when I was like 10 Do you remember it? Yeah? What was the worst part about that the worst part was when I woke up Yeah, everything was fine, but The worst part was when I woke up. Yeah. Everything was fine, but then I remember when I woke up, I just felt like my throat was on fire. Like it was just so painful.
Starting point is 00:21:33 And then being disorientated and kind of out of it. What about you, was it worst? I don't know, I don't really have too many bad experiences. After I got my wisdom teeth out, I tried to call a friend because I thought I was fine because of the drugs, and blood was literally like gushing out of my mouth as I was trying to talk on the phone. I mean, I stuff this crazy thing to you. I woke up after my last knee surgery and I demanded to see the head of the facility and tell them what a great comp, like what a great situation they had. I was like I'm so comfortable. This is just an amazing, I
Starting point is 00:22:05 want I need to let him know this or her. Wow. Wow. Wow. What surgery have and I had. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You had some. The last one. I put it up on YouTube and they took it down because they said it was inappropriate. I'm thinking it was a surgery. I've seen people die on YouTube. I know, right? Yeah, no. The last one that I had was where I had that it was a, it was a, it was a new disease that I was the fifth person in the world to have surgery.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Did you put any music under it? Maybe some of it down. No, there was no, yeah, yeah. It was, you know, back and black. But, no, it was, I had this vein and tumor wrapped around my spinal cord and it was causing the right side of my body paralysis and so they drilled in five vertebrae and cauterized the vein and pulled the tumor and everything out and literally when I woke up the pressure and the pain was gone.
Starting point is 00:23:03 And then the next year I did the World Championship Outrigger, can you think? So like I was like, woohoo, yeah, it was pretty intense. It was really painful. It was really painful. I got out of that and I was, uh, can I have the... You don't?
Starting point is 00:23:16 Please. But that was, you know, that was a third surgery in one year. I had the, the fusion on my neck and then I broke my neck and they had to refuse it. And then, two- Oh my shoulder. You're the bionic woman. It's right.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Better, stronger, better. Worst year ever. Yeah. How many about it? You each. Were you going somewhere with that? You know, I remember being seven and I remember being like, I had a birthmark on my leg on my leg.
Starting point is 00:23:40 I saw the scarf for it. I remember the doctor being like, oh, look at that birthmark. Well, that could be potentially cancerous. so you get older so we need to cut that I'm like all right cool. Let's cut it out. No problem. He's like all right So what we're gonna do is we're gonna take this needle and we're sticking your leg all right cool So we'll do that and then what we're doing to cut out you're ready. I'm like okay Let's do it and so they stick this needle in my leg and they hold it there for a minute and I'm like okay Okay, okay, it's no me's like all right now. We're gonna cut it out. I'm like okay cool. Let's do this

I'm like, okay, cool, let's do this, it'll be great. Pulls out the scalpel, and I'm just sitting there watching, stabs into my leg, and blood just starts pouring out of my leg. And he's like, okay, and we're cutting it, I'm like, all right, this is great. And then it's like, at some point I made the connection, and I was like, wow, look at all that blood. That blood, that blood, it's my blood. Boof, passed out. And now ever since then then I'm like scared Crapless like I can't like giving blood or and they and that stuff It's just like especially if you're young that'll a little traumatized
Starting point is 00:24:32 Yeah, dude, and what was a doctor thinking? I mean, he's just like yeah come on. I'm like yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah And it's just like and it's like looking back. It's just like I he probably just trying to get insurance of money You know, it's just like, I probably just trying to get insurance of money. You know, it's just like, I came, I was coming out of a, a, a, a surgery procedure and I did something like Brandon did. This doctor had was really good looking. And so when I, as I was coming out of the anesthesia,
Starting point is 00:24:58 I remember he, he said to me, for the third time, I'm married and I have three children. Oh my God. And I'm like, what did I ask this guy, right? That's crazy. I know. So then I had to do a follow-up. And I was like, I don't know what I said.
Starting point is 00:25:11 I'm so embarrassed. I'm really sorry. Like if I said something inappropriate. And he said, you know what? Hey, you guys, you have no idea the step that we hear when people are under. But he gets you were fine. You were fine. I'm like, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Yeah, I had an endoscope a couple of years ago. And they don't put you out for that. They gave you the poison. Oh, not yet, right? Where you forget what happened. And so I went in to give you the one injection. I was like, whoa, I feel kind of woozy. And then they start wheeling me over to where
Starting point is 00:25:34 they're going to do the procedure. And they give me the second injection and gone. And then I come to, and when I finally regained consciousness, I'm eating a pizza at Monja. And then my wife was mad at me. And I was like, what happened? She goes, you were such a jerk. So what did I do?
Starting point is 00:25:50 She said, after the procedure, they wheeled me back into the waiting room or whatever, and they're like, OK, here, put your clothes back on. Spending my clothes back on, the doctor came and explained everything. And I guess gave my wife a pamphlet, like information about the procedure. And then as soon as he left, I was like, give me that.
Starting point is 00:26:09 And I took it from her and she said that I just sat there staring at it. As you can tell, I wasn't reading them. My eyes weren't moving, but I just had it in my hands. It was staring. And then she was like, are you done with it? Can I look at it? So I gave it back to her. Then she said like 10 seconds later, I was like, what is that?
Starting point is 00:26:24 I took it back to her. Then she said like 10 seconds later, I was like, what is that? I took it back from her. And it was just like that. I was just such an ass, I was like unfiltered Gus. Wow. So if you have some dementia, you're going to devalue up in 20 years. There's another thing, I guess the doctor was explaining like everything to my wife. And then I said something like, don't explain to her.
Starting point is 00:26:42 She wouldn't explain to me. I'm talking to you. I thought you really feel that. Wow. She was really mad. And then I was thinking, that's the pizza place and I was eating a barbecue chicken pizza. And I was like, who let me order this?
Starting point is 00:26:55 I would never eat this. What the fuck is wrong with me? Oh my God. It's so weird, because it's almost like dreaming where there's no sensor, but you're not dreaming. You're out and about in public. Well, I had surgery on my thumb one time because I stupidly stuck my thumb into a table saw when I was in college and that's a whole other story.
Starting point is 00:27:15 But yeah, anyone who's gotten surgery and you get that you anesthesia. It's like, all right, camp down from 100. Right. 99. 90. Yeah. And then it's just like, and then the next thing you remember I mean I remember I just I remember laying in bed and just like I remember saying someone coming up and going okay Wake up now and boom I'm a one awake and it's just like
Starting point is 00:27:38 Yeah, it's crazy. I mean, it's like I don't understand how they did they chemically wake me up or I mean I don't I really have no Understanding of how all that went Yeah, they do they can't give you a chemical to wake you I have a hazy memory I don't even really remember where this is from but I remember being a doctor come out of Anastasia And it's like they give you the robe and why is that fucking robe always too small? Always too fucking small Money and the health care business to get bigger fucking I want to see your joke Need quick access
Starting point is 00:28:13 I was out of your ass. I was saying I said these doctors are totally copping a look I'm under man I know they're lifting this freaking I was out of it and I didn't know what was going on and so I put the robot backwards So it was like a real and it was going on. And so I put the robe on backwards. Yeah. So it was like a robe. And it was like too small. And so it's like, well, why is this isn't re-ensoy? You get the two little tiny things.
Starting point is 00:28:33 And so it's like in hindsight, I remember the nurse walking in. And I'm like presenting my genitalia. Basically, the robe was like too carton-ness. You know, and my genitalia Johnny Carson You know it's you got the tie rope just like just under you know, it's like what I was like this This is not oh Man, it's just like I mean It's like that's the joke and the healthcare. It's like well
Starting point is 00:29:01 It's pump-a-full of drugs and then give him this tiny robe If you that It's like that. I mean I've never seen that video it's it's kind of old now of that guy at the beach who is so drunk that he's trying to put his pants on like a shirt oh god got through the leg and trying to get the other leg there's never there's there's never get old like drunk people in public god and it's just like they're fighting gravity and never gets old there was one we never talked about on the podcast But there was one from the UK a couple months ago like some dude who like falls down to fly to stairs and like stumbles home and He'd like left his wallet somewhere or lost it on the way
Starting point is 00:29:37 I'll put in the link that I'll send it to you. Did you guys ever see the one? It was it was an office building and the people were looking out the window and there was a minivan That was parked in front of their place and the guy had the sun roof up and he was rubbing it out and it it's one of the funniest Videos and and so here's what happens like they're all laughing like oh my gosh We can't believe he's doing it right and so finally one of the people from the office Walks down and goes in front of the car and he kind of waves at the guy and then he points up and the guy looks through the Open sunroof to all these people just laughing their asses and he had a towel right? I'd like this towel over it
Starting point is 00:30:12 But you can the motion and he throws a towel aside and like puts it in gear and takes off But I mean I laughed so hard. I'll find it because it was yeah, you got it You got to send me that I got to never I've never seen that. Oh, it was hilarious It's always that moment of realization captured. That's always the most thrilling one. But come on, who of us hasn't been there? You know, as a band, with the Sunday room. And leave me the Sunday Folk, but that was like the, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Well, my son, my son, my son, Rufoma was the robe that we just talked about. That's right. There's a great clip on ESPN. I think it was a UT EP game, El Paso, and they have like this big field in the outfield, and they were zooming in on this couple and She was totally reaching through his pants and giving him a
Starting point is 00:30:50 Man with hand job and the guys like they did that little football circle I don't know if they were oblivious or what but I don't really got broadcast. I almost got stabbed and murdered on that hill What? But that's totally got broadcast. I almost got stabbed and murdered on that hill. Oh. What? When I was like, when I was like 15, I was died. Oh my. We were, I was up there.
Starting point is 00:31:13 I was up there with some people I knew. And it was summer. So like the school was pretty much closed down. And we were dumb kids, we were teenagers. So we were like throwing rocks from there, trying to hit the football field. And one of the dudes I was with threw a rock and like it was really far so he like threw the rock up in the air and then some dude came walking out of the stadium like onto the
Starting point is 00:31:33 field and the rock hit really close to him and he like yelled something at us and we're being dumb kids we like yelled back at him and kind of yelling from a distance and then the dude very calmly leaves the stadium goes to his car puts his bag up They're pulls out a giant machete and runs it Apparently you had been the first people to throw rocks. Yeah, it was prepared. We're like oh fuck It's like well this time I got my machete. We have to run like we ran Down the hill and I remember like we ran like building a building trying to get away from him And I won't be like we split up so you wouldn't find all of us and I was trying to walk calmly down
Starting point is 00:32:09 the street at U-TEP but the school was closed there was no one there and I saw his car like come screaming around the corner and like drive past me and then he like slammed on the brakes and jumped out and I was like oh shit like he filmed me so like it was like something out of a horror movie like I ran into the nearest building that was open and was like going through the stairwell, like going up and trying to go back down and get away from him. And eventually like after 45 days. Is that lightning? I had to get away.
Starting point is 00:32:33 No, no, thank God. Oh my. So yeah, I wondered like that's lightning and silhouettes. Yes, that's childhood, right? Yes, that's childhood, right? Childhood is throwing rocks at shit. You should be throwing rocks at it. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Oh yeah. Do you guys remember Ding Dong Ditch? We did Ding Dong Ditch and we'd go through the neighborhood and we'd ring the doorbell and we'd run. Right, right. And we got pulled into a house one day, right? And the woman's like, we're going to call your parents. Now, could you imagine that now, if somebody brought a kid into their house, I mean they'd
Starting point is 00:32:58 be arrested and thrown in a jail. Yeah, I'd shoot him. Yeah. Yeah. I once hit an o-woman with a McDonald's back full of food. It is pretty awesome. You hit a woman with a McDonald's back Drop it on her head We were really bored Like from from what kind of hike?
Starting point is 00:33:15 You got to elaborate. Come on. I cannot picture this. Yeah, we were we're at some like kind of tournament It was just a few of us. It was extremely boring. What kind of tournament a karate? It was just a few of us. It was extremely boring. I'm a tournament. A karate. I'm a pro. And, uh, I'm running skills to use, apparently. It was a gymnasium.
Starting point is 00:33:28 It was a gymnasium. So you were in the stands, but every so, uh, every so often, there was just a cutout where people could walk through from the locker room. Right. And, uh, we were just looking for people. And as soon as we saw someone, we would drop bags just full of, uh, McDonald's food. And we hit this woman. And it was awesome until she came up and yelled at us
Starting point is 00:33:45 Did not did not foresee that happening People and everything is gonna be okay. There's new consequences. There's no consequences. You know escape plan No, like they can't get up here They can't see us work five steps up. It's got a way that you're your machete guy and my McDonald's bag head woman or listening right now Did they this result in any if you've any fights? Yeah, I've been in two fights. It's cool your parents love it when you're in your first fight So you fight again and
Starting point is 00:34:15 Not as much it's like one of those right-of-passage things, you know, they're like, oh, you got in your first fight Let's go get hamburgers No, I've been punched punch once but that's it dude I gotta do this one which is shocking I should have been punch a lot more I don't know if you got a day I was that daycare you're gonna you're gonna get some fights a daycare dude they that's like prison for kids it's true it's where they train you that's where they train you make your was your fight? What was your fight, Joel? I have second thoughts about this. I was at this, I worked at this job when I was in high school. I called
Starting point is 00:34:52 I probably come and he's been defunct as a longer business, but it was like child zone or something like that, where it was like, you get a bunch of children and you put them in a room full of pads or whatever, and they beat the crap out of each other, whatever. But we had like some party where there was like 20 of the employees there and we got really drunk and I guess it was after hours. There weren't kids there.
Starting point is 00:35:15 There weren't kids there. I should say that but I got really really drunk and my friend who was a big dude with some other big dude were like sort of you could see it coming all night long and then finally it got to the point where they're sort of Facing off and I had an empty Bottle of a corona in my hand. Oh my god. I was really drunk and I was thinking to myself. Well, you know what I could do I could just Chunk this empty bottle of corona at his head Oh my god, and then it would break like in the movies and it would knock them out and then we would
Starting point is 00:35:45 just immediately get you it, you know, it'd be fine. And so this logic to drunk Joel seemed perfect, I was drunk by, I was drunk by. Yeah. Yeah. Seemed perfectly logical. And so what I did was, I went ahead and took a swing at him, but you know how there's like condensation on the outside of my mouth.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Well basically I totally missed. Thank God. And the beer bottle goes out of my hand and goes, all the way to the end of the bottle. And like 20 dudes who are all getting ready to go and fight all stop and look at this beer bottle and go, I'm looking at it and it's like click up against like a light at the end of the bottle and stop for a second and then full brawl. It was just a full all-out just like I just started I mean like they didn't like follow the trail of the beer bottle back
Starting point is 00:36:30 I'm like that you really just like it was just like it was it was really bad. It was really bad I got did you get murdered? Yeah, did you? I got murdered but I was so drunk that it was it was fine But it was pretty bad. Oh Don't do that don't ever do that Don't learn to learn to take a like a beer bottle and break it, break it like halfway. Have like the, yeah. Like jagged it. I'm just afraid if I do it somehow, it's like gonna like fling in my eyes.
Starting point is 00:37:11 It's like, it's, something's gonna go wrong. Have you ever like opened a beer bottle and then what happens is that it breaks the glass. Like it takes some of the glass and so you've got like shards or whatever. But of course you're drinking beer, so you're drunk. So you're like, well whatever
Starting point is 00:37:25 I mean, that's like a mistake you make one time and so like yeah, and it's like and then it's like oh where did the shard go? You know, did I just drink a shard of glass and my beer? Yeah, so now I don't even like broken beer many I don't like to break anything Now I don't want anything to break. I want everything to stay together. No more broken stuff. I like the status quo. Okay. That works for me. No more broken stuff. No more fighting.
Starting point is 00:37:50 I'm too old now. I'm old now. You're old now. I'm not gonna fuck that. I went to bed early. I went to wake up early. I went to eat my dinner like at 5 p.m. That's a good idea.
