Starting point is 00:07:55 And then it was like I was most people just thought I was the second guy from come town and they're like Well, this fat idiot can do it. I can do it And so it was like I do feel like there was even Like my personal friends which kind of hurt my feelings. Yeah, they were they would see shit go viral They'd be like dude what what's going on? How do I do this and they're like they're opposed like three clips And they'd be like oh this actually this sucks, and it's hard work to do every day But I mean do you think I'm not I know I'm somewhat responsible for every like middle-aged
Starting point is 00:08:30 Dead-end Yeah, there's still craft to it there was I'm talking about how shit's not going Well, yeah, there's still some eloquence in there I do there definitely when I first got here ten years years ago there was a lot of canine karaoke going around a lot of horrible versions of you with no punch lines being like and like pretending to have a growlier voice than they did and like drinking IPA's on stage stage. Well, they missed it, man. Yes, that's why I got it. I saw it like and I'll watch
Starting point is 00:09:14 because like that, like this is scored up Scourge of it. It's like, you know, it's you know, it's improv where one person just doesn't know. Like that's why they say, remember how like everybody hates improv? It's the same thing, but the other person just isn't good at it. Or sometimes neither of them are. But yeah, remember out like everybody hates improv Or sometimes neither of them are most of the time neither of them are but that's what I want to say like I know I've talked my shit. Oh, yeah idea crowd were but they always come to the lab with Stav is good at it
Starting point is 00:09:36 Thank you. I appreciate it. Yeah. No, I do feel like I I do is you seem I get that a lot I'm like I like having a good, yeah. I don't like the, like there's a lot of crowd work that's like, the guy knows what he's gonna say. He's just setting you up. It's three card mansy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because then you're on the subway going, I can't believe I lost $20.
Starting point is 00:09:58 But it's like the opposite of joke grenades where it's on the way home, it gets less funny. Right, right, right. Oh, that's how he did it. Yeah, you see it, you see it for for sure and meanwhile. I just like to you know I I'm all I am genuinely curious about a lot of shit and also it was a mistake like I don't I was also someone who? Talked shit about crowd work, and then I was like I'm putting out a special I have no YouTube presence. Maybe these bullshit crowd work clips are working that they did and I was like, all right, I guess I'm
Starting point is 00:10:27 Joke but it's an Instagram real that's a live anywhere else ever again. This is a red It's gonna call me a hack for repeating my own material It's great comedy's in a great place right now. It's no way that it's bloated and gonna implode on itself Oh, oh dude. This is it's the fuck it. It's no way that it's bloated and gonna implode on itself It's the fuck it's the 1920s I feel like I'm I'm dancing with a flapper smoking a cigar and the fucking great depressions right around the corner 1989 I'm on the Sunset Strip And faster pussy yeah Right Nirvana's not tuning their guitars down the street.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Yeah, either way we're on the precipice, but let's, you know, folks, let's hope the bubble doesn't burst till 2025 where I will be doing a big theater tour. I'm taking this year off, but please God let it go until 2026 so I make a ton of money in those theaters. Are you full year off? full year off man full year from a serious tour like I The last couple years were just like too much and I did get I mean to our eagle-eyed YouTube commenters I have gotten too fat even for myself where it's not even like a I've talked about before it's like a looks thing. It's just like I'm starting to feel like unhealthy where it's like so I'm doing a full sober year. I'm doing a full
Starting point is 00:11:50 I'm doing yeah, nice. Yeah, I'm doing a full sober my 35th year of life gonna go sober And just kind of like I I mentioned in the burbs life because I got a place in Baltimore Yeah, and I think I'm gonna I feel the exact same way where it's like, you know It's like Baltimore's the burbs, but I'm in a nice little neighborhood I got a backyard and I feel like it's a lot different than living in a fucking three-bedroom where two of the bedrooms are your podcast studio So I'm taking a little time to just kind of zone out and also I feel like the material I Don't think it's sustainable. This like every every 16 months a new hour is just not I don't think it's sustainable this like every
Starting point is 00:12:26 Every 16 months a new hour is just not I can't I know I'm not good enough a comedy to do that And I don't have enough life experience to do that shit. It's like I want to just actually live that's the part of like If you say somebody pointed out like okay So new comics are talking about how everything sucks and a job sucks because that's that's your life experience You're a dead-end job and you're starting to stand up on it. Yeah, or not of like Okay, so new comics are talking about how everything sucks and a job sucks because that's your life experience. Like you're at a dead end job and you're starting to stand up out of, born out of desperation
Starting point is 00:12:49 or like I'll throw anything at the wall just to feel somewhat happy momentarily. Totally. And then the comics that start worrying are like, oh, all their jokes are about airports and hotels because now you're finally on the road and your life is just that. Or it's staying out too late.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Exactly. Man, I was in Birmingham in this crazy thing. I was in Chattanooga in Medi-Creat. Cause you're staying out and everybody, that's your job is to be out Friday night but that's everybody else's. They're gonna show you the craziest time. So that dictates part of your career.
Starting point is 00:13:18 And then you build a following based on all these crazy stories. And now if you try to pivot away from it, people are like, man, you're just not living anymore. It's like, nah, I just grew up. And that's okay. If I'm a good enough comedian, I can start telling stories about
Starting point is 00:13:35 just the shit that happens to me. Absolute mundane bullshit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I replaced a thermostat in a stove and I feel like a king and I'll figure it out But I don't want to have just an hour long set of like oh, and then it was for him somebody had ketamine But like we also were on city bikes. Well, man, the river's not that cold Yeah, I don't want that. That's like that doesn't I mean shit like that still happens

I'm gonna build my own Acropolis on the top. Dude, I really do the old. Got the Lego Parthenon room. It is funny, the older, I don't know if you feel this way,
Starting point is 00:17:33 but the older I get, the more I'm like, ah dude, I wanna return to, like my genes are screaming. Like my, they're screaming for like. The fat jokes are lining up right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. G-E-N-E- lining up you fucking piece of shit my jeans quiet down eldest jokes are just out there it was a meatball over the plate it was but
Starting point is 00:18:00 they're screaming for like trashy Greek decor where I like I want like a like this Yeah, it's not far off from a painting I actually want to purchase of like the Greek like every old Greek guy has like, you know A beach a grease beach scene. Yeah, it's like kind of tacky artwork on their wall. I would literally want that in my bedroom I want marble columns. Like I don't know I don't know fountain. I would love a fountain I don't have the space for I mean, that's the thing. It's like the play the kids I grew up with there's always space You're right. I mean you know you go a little further down this neighborhood. You'll find some cramped marble fountain Yeah, I've had to walk around I've had to shimmy around fountains to get out of somebody
Starting point is 00:18:42 Absolutely. But yeah, there is I do feel the like getting older and the like the desire not the desire but the like almost inevitability of sort of returning to where you came from or getting closer like I feel like your youth is for like exploring and then you hit a point where you're like Gravity just pulls you back to where you came from and you're never gonna be exactly like where you were from or your parents or whatever, but you're gonna get closer than you were at your wildest, you know what I mean? I don't know if you're, I mean, when listening to the special,
Starting point is 00:19:11 it kind of felt a little bit like that where it seemed like you're talking about moving to the burbs, being out of the day-to-day rat race, relating to your parents, trying to relate to your parents a little more, like that shit. I don't know if you're feeling that way at all. Well, we've been children for much longer than I think any generation's been allowed to be. For sure. And yes, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:19:32 We've been absolute, just 12-year-olds. Yeah. Still, to this point now. And by the way, I think it's gonna change. I think this is one of the weirdest... I think that's gonna change. I think kids younger than us are more responsible than us the fact that people like it like Binge drinking isn't a thing like kids like I know more people like you still do comedy
Starting point is 00:19:53 I'm still hanging out people are 23 like now. I'm sober like like so you ever part of like no I did it Yeah, when they were like 16 Because I'm 20 years old and like who wants shots like oh yeah this is pathetic oh really like I'm already in a bar instead of at home with a family so where we going afterwards yeah nowhere nobody has money and we don't drink because you look silly I'm like oh maybe there's some lessons to learn like or just acknowledge that that's shit yeah they're just gonna be like nope life's gonna be real hard. Yeah. Yeah So yeah, I need to have my head on straight to handle it. Yeah, like and I want to fuck
Starting point is 00:20:32 Yeah, I did I wonder if like I'm curious to see what these gen Z motherfuckers if they like start getting married like 25 or if like If cuz it's like we grew up where when we were born the world seemed like there were endless possibilities and then it was like oh No, it was like it kind of happened after like I just feel like the 9-eleven to what this entire time Timeframe is just like oh, yeah, there's no progress There's no nothing but we at least had that idea and I think we were mourning that as a generation and then it was like Oh, these kids just never thought anything good was possible Like are they do they have the mindset of like a medieval peasant. That's like well. I'm religious. I need a wife
Starting point is 00:21:12 I need to you know what I mean like but it like people are just being Catholic again. I know that's weird That's bizarre and it's one thing to be like religious or spiritual or whatever and like no meaning but It's one thing to be like religious or spiritual or whatever, like seek meaning, but Catholic? Good job. Catholic's brutal. Good job on this new punk rock, because you got, I'm like, what the fuck is wrong with these kids? Like you did it.
Starting point is 00:21:33 Like if you're like, I do think it, it's the job of like, not the job, but like I shouldn't understand what you're doing if you're 17. That's true. I shouldn't get it. Which is. And you nailed it with the Catholic. That is true. That's a good point. You nailed it with that. That's actually a really really good point because if they just got like even more trans I'd be like oh cool
Starting point is 00:21:49 Yeah, but I'm very cool. We're no thing. I understand this progress, but if they're like unionized They're like playing Gregorian chants and like fucking like them like oh, I don't people at Harbor pedophiles like Like at least be the snake handlers. That shit was wild. The thing is, now, I'm not, this is not defense of the Catholic Church. Everyone else also probably molested. They just, I just feel like almost every other religion
Starting point is 00:22:17 also sucks a little child dick. But just the PR, the Catholic, the leadership, it was more grassroots, I would say, for other religions, whereas the Catholic Church, from the very top, they're doing the mixing and matching. From the very top, like, well, if you're gay, you're going to hell. What's the best way to hide being gay?
Starting point is 00:22:35 Be a priest. So no, you're not supposed to fuck. Also, here's access to boys. Like, it was dialed in for molestation. Absolutely. And like, just, I bet you they're having weird sex parties Just just you know like didn't the other didn't the other pope the guy the German guy who quit didn't he have like a He had like a man's servant. Who was just some piece of ass that followed him everywhere
Starting point is 00:22:59 I think I can remember I think he was just on some yeah Yeah, I don't know, but did you go so I'm guessing you didn't grow up religious at all. They were your parents Well, no, I mean like like CCD and stuff. So Catholic Sunday school I mean nothing happened to me, but it was yeah Like the one priest One priest like he's like always sick and that's everything he's got AIDS like what priest with AIDS Whoa, but and but this is all like the church is just a rumor mill. Who knows what's what like oh Everybody likes a good piece of gossip. You're right. That's the fucking Bible is a book of just and then we heard this
Starting point is 00:23:36 Retail it let's like let's misinterpret it in a different language and keep this gossip going It is a big game in telephone. Yeah. And I do like how everybody's gospel, it's like in each one, the guy who wrote it is actually a little cooler than in all the other ones. Yeah, yeah. And in the book of Matthew, his dick was all, he had a huge dick.
Starting point is 00:23:57 And Mayor Magle actually begged to suck him off, but he said, no, you're Jesus' slam piece. Or something, I don't really remember. It's been a while since I've read that particular book of the gospel Roy's almost got a good joke about like Peter's letter letter to the he's like you think that sounds like why is Peter just Here every week We're not writing them back Yeah, I guess to be fair the most I remember about like Yeah, I guess to be fair the most I remember about like
Starting point is 00:24:32 About God is from the last temptation of Christ both the book and the Martin Scorsese movie where it's pretty clear He gets pussy from Mary Magdalene and in my head. I was like, oh, yeah That's just a fact in the Bible and no one no actually religious person. Yeah thinks that but come on But I was come on. He's not gonna get a little fucking head I think that makes him cooler virgin birth dog virgin birth. Yeah that over it up. Absolutely I was that yeah, Mike my education came from like bad religion lyrics, which were just as obtuse as the Bible itself I'm singing so fast. There's so many Yeah These words are big. All right. I don't know this really isn't that fun
Starting point is 00:25:05 Yeah, hang out and drink beers in a parking lot course wash with my friends So you're so and you grew up in just in the Chicago burbs You said right where it was like and they they didn't make you like so they made you go to Catholic school Like your parents were just on some classic. It was that like on some classic like this just what you do Yeah, you didn't like you didn't have a kid that wasn't like dating On some classic, like, this is just what you do. Yeah, you didn't have a kid that wasn't, like they didn't, they went to church when they were little and it's like, no, you have to.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Same, yeah, yeah. I can't do as I say, not as I do it. Why aren't you guys going to church? We already went. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We already did our time, now you gotta go through it. And it was just like, which I'm not gonna argue with anybody trying to like direct their kid,
Starting point is 00:25:39 like this is like math, science, this shit, but here's an idea of this other aspect that's not necessarily in the book's education, but there's a part of life where like a moral compass and things like that. I think there's other religions or camps that can teach that without, also you burn in hell if you touch yourself, if you do Go in this little room Yeah, every all of it looks like a cult to me Yeah, for sure like all of it is like looking back and I think and it's not it's not edgy to be like
Starting point is 00:26:15 I know that's no it's edgy to say like I'm a Catholic. Yes, you've it has flipped. Yeah, you've got me Yeah, but right on that's what you're supposed to be doing I yeah Greek Catholics or Greek Sunday school was so funny because it was just like The Greek orthodoxy and we're the most chill Religion with Orthodox in the name for sure. Yeah, it's like no one really gave a fuck our like Sunday school teachers We're just like like we literally one of my Sunday school teachers Just like a guy who would like been to jail and said God saved his life and then he was like and his son was telling us like like almost like
Starting point is 00:26:52 The holy grail grail conspiracy theories about how like the virgin bird like this was like a kid in ninth grade Who clearly had heard this from his dad? Who was like? Yeah, you think the very was like the Virgin Mary had other kids He was like you think they he literally said the phrase you think they just sewed her back up And she was a virgin again, and and and it was like are you talking about the Virgin Mary's pussy, dude? and then the guy and then This is like and then the kid this is what the kid is arguing with our actual Sunday school teacher And the guys like the guy had no idea
Starting point is 00:27:26 What the fuck to say to that and he was like, yeah And my this kid who had heard from his father who was in jail who I guess God spoke to him about these things And that was like the level of like real and yeah, he had some theory where it was like well Yeah, got as soon as the Virgin Mary's pussy was busted wide open Then it was then it was open season for Joseph. It's just God got dibs on her pussy and as soon as and then so he was talking about how like Jesus had half siblings and he was just doing like this crazy like this is what the kids say and that was the fun that's the only one I
Starting point is 00:27:59 remember yes that was the only fun like Sunday school because they were not prepared for any blowbacks. Sunday school teachers were not prepared for any line of questioning from a third grader that's like, well, why would God make hell if he loves all of us? Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh. It's complicated. I know. They have no recourse of any kind of question
Starting point is 00:28:21 that actually taps at the logic of any of it. Totally. And you're dealing with kids that are just curious and have like, well you just said this, so that would mean this. And it crumbles early unless, to me it felt like it's all crumbles unless you're fearful. Yeah, yeah, for sure. And that's where I'm like, fuck all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Your whole thing's based on fear. And why are you questioning? And authority and all that, the classic shit. All that stuff. Yeah, your whole thing's based on fear. Yep, and like why are you quite an authority? You know, yeah the classic shit. Yeah, so that's why I think I gotta get away from this stuff Yeah, I didn't know like and I didn't know any Jewish kids growing up. They're just like or even fuck even just Lutheran friends Yeah, like church like Lutheran friend like we're gonna end it early cuz Bears games We're all like one step away from being full-fledged demons unless we talk to the guy where's his robes yeah that guy's in a sweater What is this? Yeah?
Starting point is 00:29:13 People are smiling why do you look like they're happy to be yeah, I don't know church. That's fun though So then and then you went from Catholic school You said drinking in parking lots and just you know hanging around yeah man it was like were you were you city kid or suburban kid city yeah in Baltimore okay in the city yeah yeah so it was not yet we didn't have the burbs but we did a lot actually the church was the like cultural center too where it was like we would get fucked up I mean that's the first thing I got drunk first place I grabbed tits no the Greek you know Greek well Italians Italians the name any Orthodox was like the yeah like they stuck together in the Greek.

I want real money, and so it was like the, like deep freeze, like mass produced donuts, but I would just eat them because I'm 17, like oh, lunch break, like donuts.
Starting point is 00:51:25 So all, because it was all primarily like Latino workers. And so they first thought I was the boss's kid because I was the only white guy working there. This weird like move around shift. So they hated me. And then once they found out I wasn't. A donut factory nepo baby. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:41 I was about to cash in on the Clyde's Delicious Donuts fortune. I just learned a few real world skills before I go to boarding school, you know? But then they found out that I wasn't the boss's kid, so they thought I must have been the most worst off white kid ever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And so I would, because then they just saw me eating like the fucked up donuts that got cut in half by the machine or something. Oh, he's the poorest white boy We've ever seen so then they would feed me stuff from all their homemade lunches
Starting point is 00:52:08 So all it was all it was donuts and homemade Mexican food That's a nice combo right there.

There's no animosity between the two of us. We maintain like professional friendship. But recently, she started dating one of the other guys at my academy Oh happens to be a friend of mine that I've been training with for Probably six years at this tough and I don't know why but I
Starting point is 00:53:19 Feel I'm feeling some kind of way about it. I'm feeling like a little disrespected. I don't know Maybe it's my own principles. I don't date anyone I train with. I don't really believe in dating people you train with unless you bring them from outside. And since we've been broken up, I've dated exclusively people outside of the academy. Pause this, pause this, I'll listen.
Starting point is 00:53:44 He's like, I don't believe in doing anything that wasn't exactly what I did only the situation I did was okay if you bring the put if the pussy is grandfathered in then they can train jujitsu but you are not allowed to fuck someone that would hurt my feelings so very very funny start so far but go go ahead. Let's just finish. Let's hear him out Just because it feels kind of weird in high school quickie Also don't I believe in not shooting where you eat Yeah, I don't know am I in the wrong to be a little irritated and disrespected that those two would

It's not your, and maybe I'm wrong. I don't know You know this is this is awesome you've done this yeah, we got it we got it Is there a whole thing about like honor and discipline? Yeah And mastery of the self like fucking deal with it, dude. Yeah, I know Yeah, it's like it is funny that it's like, yeah, who knows?
Starting point is 00:55:06 It's not a climbing gym. You're like, you're training in the ways. Also, it's just like, dude, here's what's pissing me off. He's pretending it's about some kind of moral code that he's mad about. Stop. I say this all the time. It's like, don't lie. You cannot lie to us.
Starting point is 00:55:23 That's the one thing I will not. That's the one thing I will not accept on this podcast. I always say we're like we're like their defense attorney Yeah, you gotta tell us what happened Okay, you know tell us the truth assessment and we can we can we can kind of massage it for you Whatever, but we need to know the truth The truth is you don't fucking care about you what you are and look like okay If this was a girl you hadn't fucked and he started dating a different girl at your gym, would you be this deeply upset about your principles?
Starting point is 00:55:51 Would you be like, hey Todd, this is where we fucking learn how to do Kamoras. You're ruining the vibes. No, so that's what I'm saying, be honest here. I'm guessing the other guy is better at jujitsu than he is. That would also be tough. If the other guy was where he'd be like All right. Yeah took a step down touch
Starting point is 00:56:10 Dominate some of these dudes. Yeah, he said this guy trained him for six years trained him or trained with him trained with him I thought it was yeah, so basically all that's happening here is that Here's where you have you can actually be a little upset in my opinion now look here's everything he's your friend is he your friend like you just take the same classes do you guys ever hang out outside of the gym like if he's your actual boy because if he's your actual boy you can be annoyed that he at least didn't have a conversation with you that it wasn't like, hey man, just so you know, this is going on, like we're friends, I just wanted to let you know.
Starting point is 00:56:49 But the reality is he's not, like you're saying don't shit where you eat, but it's also like, well these are the people you see. If you're like a fucking jujitsu freak. It's like comedians dating comedians. This is just all what we're doing. Yeah, in my free time I'm like hey, let's go get lunch Let's go this thing we see each other at this mutual interest
Starting point is 00:57:08 But we never shared interest when we be friends outside of it right right right and so it's like and so it's like you know You want to if you were like that's a great example of like a comedian that I was friends with like Fucked so you know whatever my ex it was, it's not about us being comedians together, it's about him being my friend. But if some other guy who just happens to fucking do comedy that I don't really know that well, but I see him at shows, did something that would be annoying of a friend did,
Starting point is 00:57:37 that's different, right? But also like with them, it's like, you're around people you see. And the comedian example is good too, where it's like, yes, sometimes it's a bad idea to don't shit where you eat But that basically means don't be a dickhead to these people like if you if you feel a connection with somebody that you have a strong You guys are both into the same things you both train at the same places Yeah, it's gonna happen where sometimes you date people within your gym or it's gonna happen sometimes like yeah some of the most disastrous
Starting point is 00:58:03 Relationships are comedians dating each other, but some of the best ones are too, right? Where it's like, you know, Joe List and Sarah, like it just happened, like I have friends who it's worked out for them, and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. This isn't about your principles though. It's the point I'm trying to make.
Starting point is 00:58:17 And I'm not saying like emotional maturity lightly, like grow up dude. It's a tough place to be in to go like, oh, here's somebody I've been with for awhile, it didn't work out with us, but I still care about them enough to see them be happy, and if it happens to be with that person over there, they've gotten to know that person,
Starting point is 00:58:36 well like, you gotta let it happen man. Yeah, and that's a beautiful perspective. I'm not even that mature. I'm just like, yeah. I'm not saying I am, I'm saying somebody else do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Do as I say, do as I do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I do think, I guess what it really comes down to
Starting point is 00:58:52 is you can be honest with your feelings here. And your feelings are not about what's right in the jujitsu gym. Your feelings are, your ex, a serious ex of, what do you say, five years, is dating a friend that, like, we don't know how close a friend is, but let's say he is a good friend and somebody you've known for six years, that, and he didn't even kinda, the violation here
Starting point is 00:59:15 is more on the friend, right? Yeah. But also, you guys broke up, what, he said two to three years ago, like, it's been enough time, and they don't really owe you much, they could have just, they could have given you guys broke up what he said two to three years ago. Like I think it's been enough time. The vibe like, and they don't really owe you much. They could have just, they could have given you a three years is like you're out for sure. She didn't just dig, turn and burn for sure. If you're that bothered by it, go three blocks down the street to the next
Starting point is 00:59:37 June, June, June, June, find them, find the next abandoned TCB. Why? That is now a dojo and start there. It's not like these things are scarce. Yeah. Yeah, so that is absolutely you could yeah ultimately And this is again a classic thing where we say no one's in the wrong here But ultimately if this fucks up how you feel about that gym go to a different gym but Be honest about what you're feeling irritated about. And I think all you're feeling
Starting point is 01:00:05 irritated about is like, if this guy's truly your friend, he does, in my opinion, even though two to three years you're out, he owes you like a little, hey man, just so you know, me and whatever are like, you know, I'm sorry, I know you guys were together. I don't want I don't want you to find out in some weird way like I feel I figure it's been long enough that's what you're upset about and by the way even if you had that conversation with you it's not like you would be like oh cool you're still probably a little you still have some residual feelings anyone who's like we maintain a professional friendship I don't know that it's healthy necessarily to like have seen your ex like twice a week for three years like you that probably doesn't help your closure you getting over it
Starting point is 01:00:50 And so you have some lingering shit that you're recognizing Oh, maybe I didn't fully get over this and you just feel a little wronged by somebody that you feel as your friend That's what's going on here. It's not don't shit where you eat out of the sanctity of the fucking Thank you. I think there's like this honor and everything like you eat out of the sanctity of the fucking I think yeah I think there's like this honor and everything like you're calling it the Academy That you're holding this in can be a little bit more pliable for sure I mean look unless You're in a social circle exactly unless you're training to be in the UFC But that's not the vibe which they're all right
Starting point is 01:01:25 Everybody go to an open mic. Yeah, Yeah, they're gonna get a special. Yeah, so good luck buddy And you know, oh, here's the other thing. I Guarantee you if you're getting sucked off by someone else. You don't care at all That's another thing go unless if you're if if by some situation You're in a relationship and you give this much of a fuck about it, there's a lot more going on. Throw yourself into a trivia night or two. Get away from the Academy for a minute and go see what the other half is just trying
Starting point is 01:01:54 to like with their greasy chicken wing hands are trying to scribble answers down. Absolutely. Find out how they're living, you know? Open your horizons. Give me another one, Eldis. What's up, Savvy Baby? What's up? You know, open your horizons. Give me another one, eldest. I'll start a baby with a guest with that Albanian machine.
Starting point is 01:02:18 Yeah, so I've been having problems lately with my mother and my wife has, but my wife is the reserved, quiet, keep it all in tight. She doesn't like to let it out. She doesn't like to have conversations about things. She hates confrontation. So whenever she tries to have a conversation with her mom, it always gets flipped on her, even if her mom is doing a thing that's wrong, which most of the time it is. But the biggest thing, alas, we've been together like seven years and since she got
Starting point is 01:02:47 a divorce with her ex-husband, my wife, basically my mother-in-law has been spending a lot of time with him. Oh, that's crazy. She claims so she can get time with the kids more. All this crazy stuff, but we ended up through roundabout ways, finding out that they kind of had a thing they've gone hikes together. That's that because she felt bad. They're always texting and talking and hanging out to get each other gifts for random
Starting point is 01:03:19 stuff. He had braces. He got his braces off. She gave him a gift basket. Obviously, like, yeah, I'm a little bitter but I go through surgery So if nothing ever happens, why shouldn't give me anything to say anything but clearly there's something going on We read some text messages to while our daughter was on her phone We saw messages coming in from him. Well, my wife didn and she looked at it and they're talking they love each other all the stuff Anyway, that's messed up as that is My wife tried to call her out and then my wife gets in trouble because she was looking at the phone or whatever and it's
Starting point is 01:03:55 always flipped on her and it's like well, it's not weird that we hang out because Could be the same as your dad and your grandpa hanging out. But clearly it's not the same thing Oh, yeah, she's trying to suck your grandpa's dick. At this point I just don't know what to do because there's so many times where I want to say something to both of them but my wife doesn't want me to and so I'm respecting that and every time my wife tries to talk to me about stuff and saying she's uncomfortable, she either flips it on her or turns it around and and She said oh, okay, and then nothing ever happened, so yeah, thanks
Starting point is 01:04:30 Brutal stuff this is fucking crazy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that was thick with drama. That's tough stuff. When did he send this? I just want to know thank God. This is a free episode all right. It's coming. It's coming out soon brother Yeah, man, we gotta get to this I mean, it's coming. It's coming out soon, brother Yeah, man, we gotta get to this I mean it's coming into the ER Insane your your mother-in-law is a fucking insane person This I feel like this has happened. I feel we've gotten called like this and also this is a weird dynamic like there are one thing I never understood I guess cuz like I Come from the classic like there's different I guess because I come from the classic,
Starting point is 01:05:05 there's different parent configurations. I come from bad dad, good mom. So I can't imagine a bad, in my head it's so tough for me. And basically, all my friends, it's like, well not all of them, but there's a lot of good moms and a lot of bad dads in my friend group.
Starting point is 01:05:22 So it's hard for me to imagine, but one of the most fucked up types of moms is the mom that sees her daughter as competition. That's one of the craziest types of fucking old whores out there. And this woman feels a little like that. I think there's like some of that going on here. She's clearly a fucking dumb bitch.
Starting point is 01:05:43 I mean, there's no way around that. All the lying and the, oh, you don't say she's manipulative and flips it on. Yeah, I got a little confused about the reading the text messages and what was going on. So basically what was going on is they were, their little kid. They got a relationship, the mother-in-law has a relationship with the ex-husband.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Something. Because the kids are there. Now, theoretically. This is where I gotta step back. That's her cover. Okay, yeah, we don't know the context of everything. You know, it's always like the am I the asshole column. I've read it where you're like, yeah, you are, man.
Starting point is 01:06:13 We don't know like, I don't know your wife's history with your mom, nobody knows somebody else's history with their parents if it's complicated, maybe they just don't like each other. So it's like, well, it's easier to see my grandkids and that's the most important thing than grandkids. I just wanna see my grandbabies. I'll do anything it takes. We don't like each other. So it's like, well, it's easier to see my grandkids and that's the most important thing that grandkids, I just wanna see my grandbabies. I'll do anything it takes.
Starting point is 01:06:28 We don't have a relationship, but I need a relationship with my grandkids. It sucks for this dude, cause he's on the outside. I think how I'm reading it is that like, is that basically the mom at a minimum just likes the ex-husband more than both the current guy and her daughter yeah and and at worst that happened definitely parents not like their kid let alone 100% the guy the
Starting point is 01:06:56 person there with 100% and and and like that's at the lowest end and at the highest end she's secretly fucking this guy, right? Like that's the that's kind of the range that we're sort of like that's the Just go back to the same advice we gave the first call and be like well emotional maturity. Yeah You love some you want it to be happy too, so if your mom needs to fuck your ex-husband Be like we're being hypocrites right now. If we're telling this guy it's entirely fucked up. But the first guy, hey move on dude. Move on, your mom's fucking your children's dad.
Starting point is 01:07:36 Move on, grow up. Yeah, grow up. So, yeah, so he's dealing with a couple different issues here You've got the dumb bitch mother-in-law which a classic a tales old this time, right? But the real issue here is for him is Getting his wife to come front because he's he sounds like he's chomping at the bit to go at this old bitch and yeah And her and his wife doesn't want to do that. Well it sounds like maybe, yeah, his wife, the daughter, already has some context where she's like, I don't even want to deal with her.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Like there's already... I wonder if that's the case, or I wonder if, because this is also another classic situation of like, her mom just sounds like one of those parents that's like selfish, does whatever the fuck they want It's kind of manipulative you get to and look again. You're right. We only have one side of the story here Yeah, but I do think the first step in this is like your wife has to start Really thinking about her relationship to her mother. I mean if this does that cuz this really isn't You do kind of have to take your cues from your wife here
Starting point is 01:08:47 But I would I would personally try and attack it at the base of shit where it's like This feels like some classic therapy shit This feels like some shit your wife needs to go to therapy and with the specific Intent of discussing her relationship with her mother because this is insane and you're also like it's okay for you to have your feelings hurt um as just like a son-in-law of like what the fuck bit like that is weird like if i'm in a situation Yeah, and then like this woman loves the guy before me. It's like, all right. Well, your your fucking daughter picked me She doesn't want her want him in her life. You're being, other than like the co-parent. But that's what, are the kids still cool with this guy
Starting point is 01:09:29 and the mom, or are they also, are they being turned against them, or are the kids like, yeah, it's pretty weird that our dad, but the kids only know that it's mom and dad. They don't have the sides, it's mom and dad. And dad also, we get to hang out with grandma. I don't know how old the kids are, I don't know if the kids realize that like you know when you realize like oh, that's my mom's mom And that's my dad's mom and first you like just the old people It's funny when a baby just thinks his grandma's a different lady altogether
Starting point is 01:09:57 Yeah, and we finds out it's his mom's mom's like what the fuck oh wait you have you're the guys know each other Oh, wait, you have, you're the one for them? You guys know each other? Yeah, yeah. Oh, you're the one for that, that's for me? Oh, wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That is always such a funny moment when a baby puts it together and he's like three
Starting point is 01:10:12 and you're like, what? You guys have known him? Yeah. Oh, you guys came from different, you were just adults when you met? Yeah. Wait, you guys weren't just babies together? My parents weren't babies together?
Starting point is 01:10:24 So I don't know how old these kids are and like what the context that they're like sorting this out themselves and But yeah, I got no clean answer for my man here. I mean, I really do believe it's a little It's like you just got to start with your wife and her relationship with her mom That's the that's the absolute center of all this and like cuz my I would love a situation where you fucking tell this old lady off and even like Her it sounds like your wife might just have a weird bad relationship with her mom And I think that's what's that's what's here And that's all you could do is kind of support your wife through that I cuz as things are I wouldn't be the guy who sort
Starting point is 01:11:04 of like Tries to be a cowboy about this and like tells the old lady off yourself I think you have to just support your wife into into Examining her relationship with their mom and what she wants and that's tough when people a lot of times people want to be in Denial if they have toxic parents because it's easier to just be like well that's just my dad that's just my mom but sometimes they're bad for you man yeah cuz trying to excavate all of it is like and it's a lot I don't want I don't want I am replacing happiness with contentment is like like very easy and also like its own disease I think of Yeah, I mean I bring it up a lot about being Midwestern like well trying to be happy takes work Right be like yes making the best of it. Yeah. Yeah, right like well, but don't what didn't you want to do like more like?
Starting point is 01:11:59 But like all right, I'll drink a 12-pack yeah, I got like the good cable pack Yeah, I just keep flipping till I fall asleep do it again tomorrow Yeah, yeah, and listen your wife might after going to some therapy thinking, you know doing the cost-benefit analysis She might just be like it's easier not to but she has to decide that and not just stay in her own patterns to me That's what's good. Look, maybe I'm a little little biased I do I do think that it's important to like I Think it's important to really think about if you have a parent that's been a fucking issue in your life it's important to try and and Have a relationship on your terms
Starting point is 01:12:36 And if you if they won't or at least on some kind of middle ground and if your parent won't do that I oh I do think it's I think cutting off a shitty parent is a good way to go and it'll actually ultimately make you happier I've seen that happen for friends of mine you know it's just like it's something that I think should be on the table but that's not your decision that's your wife so all you can do is support her maybe try and get into some therapy and kind of you know be as supportive as possible with that have you ever had that that shift in your life where you had to envision your parents
Starting point is 01:13:09 just as a 20 year old dealing with their parents and going, oh, this is adding way more layers. Totally, totally. To like, oh, this is just my mom and dad, they make the rules, they were like, oh wait, they grew up, they had parents, they were in the same position I was, and they said that that's the perspective
Starting point is 01:13:24 you only get when you have kids of your own But yeah, oh, I'm not gonna have kids so I should try and force that perspective on myself, right? Oh, maybe they're this way because of the the way they were raised It's like you got to take some of that stuff into a totally totally so yeah, that's definitely me but I've also had that and I'm like, oh but Like maybe if you look you know what I can't I should get into this public I mean everybody knows I have a complicated relationship with my dad so it's like I've had that I've had that like moment and I don't get wrong I
Starting point is 01:13:58 definitely have empathy because he went through a lot of shit but then there's other stuff where I'm like oh this he is behaving like like this is not acceptable So I think it cuts both ways where you're like you give them the benefit of doubt and you see what they what they were up Against and you have empathy for them for that But then you also think of ways they behaved certain other times you're like oh, I would never do that Why didn't you see that you didn't like it being done to you? Why do you think it's your job to do it to me? Dude, it literally exactly where my dad you can break a chain. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. He'll still Like talk about ways that other people from 30 years ago wronged him
Starting point is 01:14:33 But he can't admit that like he did the same thing to me or my brothers or whatever Immigrant yeah came over here in the 80s like, you know hard had a weird weird and look his parents were bad I've talked to it on my first special They are from a his parents are in a were from a loveless arranged marriage Yeah, so it's gonna not it's not gonna be the most nurturing environment You didn't have a good example of what he did not have a good example He did not have a good example Stavros Halkeus my namesake was not the best dad He was more of a hoarder and a man who fed exotic birds
Starting point is 01:15:09 He cared way more about his birth and his family and he up like home He was like a weirdly good This is a theme with my with the father figures in my life in my family where it's like They weren't bad guys to like their friends in the community at large No, they just didn't understand how to have families and what they needed to do for that. Well you couldn't like, I think that was just like dudes of a generation, like you just weren't,
Starting point is 01:15:31 you weren't emotional around your kids. You didn't show emotions. And I think part of it is like seeing your kids as almost like your pets. Where they were like they had to do whatever you wanted and there was no like you meeting them halfway emotionally or in any way like more like employees. Yeah employees. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Yeah, something like that I run the house. Oh, you're not part of a house. Oh, no, you run that right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, and then it's like well if that's the case
Starting point is 01:15:58 This this company's been failing under your fucking administration. We've been in debt a lot company's been failing under your fucking administration. We've been in debt a lot. Yeah we should have gone bankrupt a lot of times but so anyway that's a that's a little context to my answer too so you know take it with a grain of salt but here's with another one Bigeldo. Hey Stop, I am a first year teacher in Philadelphia. It's going okay, but the kids are absolutely fucking cooking me. I know you mentioned in the past that you also went to a bullshit school, kind of like the bullshit schools that I teach at. And so I was wondering if you had any advice on maybe how to earn their trust and respect without having to be a total fucking cop teacher, disciplinarian, or how to be firm and caring
Starting point is 01:16:56 without a high and tight bark out of like a gym teacher all the time. All right, love the time. All right Clearly don't have the backbone for that. I don't know what I Can't answer this. Yeah, I mean I can't I went to Baltimore City Public School So I know like this guy I can hear from his voice. He would have been absolute food for us He's like and there was a lot of like well-meaning like white teachers that would like they were making a big difference And by the way, I went to them I went there were two incredible schools in Baltimore where you had to test in that's the system's kind of fucked up in my opinion
Starting point is 01:17:35 as an adult looking at it where it's like Most schools in Baltimore publics the Baltimore City Public School system are horrible. But if you test in Like you can get into there's two magnet schools that here's the kids want to be in school exactly It's like it's like and so there is something weird about that I think because you know If you don't get on a certain track by the time you're in literally fourth grade and start testing well Because you have to get into those schools you have to get into those middle schools when they start testing third grade for that and so it's like if just you a lot of
Starting point is 01:18:06 kids get lost through the cracks in my opinion yeah and if you didn't do well they would literally flunk you out like you could get into that school and if your grades were bad they would just send you back to your zone school so it's like it is a little fucked up but I so I went to like the best schools where the kids were the most well-behaved and we still ate a lot of these fucking schools. I can't imagine being a fucking like like I have people in my family and friends of mine who are actually teaching in Baltimore City right now and there is no as a young like like soft white teacher all I Like and say is like you're just gonna get cooked you just have to sort of like
Starting point is 01:18:48 Develop scar tissue over those burns that you're gonna get and I think all you can do Legitimately is like be who you are like kids sniff out Inauthentic like people who are inauthentic so so fast all you can do is just be who you are You know if you're a fucking jet, you know I I know somebody who's like an art teacher, and she is not she's like a She's an incredibly talented artist, and she was like I just want to give back I want to work in public schools and her first Six months she thought about leaving every day these kids were like brutal They were like they were saying like her kids were like, you know
Starting point is 01:19:26 Literally the little kids were like you're not they're like you're not tough enough to be a teacher here And then they would like punch each other and they're like there's like and there's like race wars between the Hispanic and black kids And it's like she doesn't know she's a nice girl. Who's really a really good artist She didn't know but she's done She's like I would talk to her and it would be like it was brutal and then she just kind of got used to it She she she finds her like the kids that she can relate to and they do listen to her and it's like you just Kind of have to build from there bro prospects. I'm gonna focus on these. Yeah Hey, you know why these three are my favorite cuz the rest of you suck. She was literally talking about this
Starting point is 01:20:04 This is as a future you guys yeah yeah and I have friends who are like oh yeah the development developmentally disabled kids are the best kids in my class because they just sit down and like doodle and especially art too yeah oh there's no there's no parameters just drawing Goku there's like a kid in a class who draws Goku every day and gets bet and like shows progress and doesn't bother anyone and so like yeah dude I really just think and thinking back to who I respected and who my friends didn't like there were dork teachers that we that were just like you know
Starting point is 01:20:38 they were they were like if you asked them questions they were there for you it's like be honestly if you're just fair to these kids if you asked them questions, they were there for you. It's like, be honestly, if you're just fair to these kids and you offer them like, you know, if you're not the kind of guy who is a hard ass, just be fair, you know, and just, they will respect you over time and you will get more used to it over time. And I also think it's important to realize like,
Starting point is 01:21:01 yeah dude, you are actually doing something good. Like, in this country, teachers are so fucked and we should be should get paid way more than you do hey you should get hazard truly truly and like there is some value to that and I think look at these as you're like years of just understanding teachers are the first responders to the humanity of the world yeah here's a new human being that I have to somehow shape into being a functioning member of society and they want no part of it.
Starting point is 01:21:29 None of it, yeah. So, hats off, man. I think make yourself available to form relationships with some of these kids. A lot of, even the, you know, have after school hours or coach class or just find little ways to really bond personally with these kids and understand that you're still going to get cooked. They're still going to call you a bitch and just like, you know, also start rumors about yourself. Like, you know, he killed a guy. Oh, that's good.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Oh, he was. Yeah, he was a sniper. Yeah. Start like all the rumors about yeah, Rogers or something. Yeah, yeah start rumors about oh, yeah We had a teacher a full assassin in a different life and you're like in like his tail is what is like You know his eyes starts left side twitches Michael Craig Just fictionalize your bad story entirely Go that way. Just fictionalize your backstory entirely. That's good. And see, like, pepper that in and see if that happens. Or fuck one of their moms and then bring that up if they ever roast you.
Starting point is 01:22:30 Kind of the power move from the last call. We really are. We really are day-to-day chaining back to these other calls. Maybe that ex-husband was just pulling a power move. Yep, yep. And moving in, so. I like that. Yeah, I mean, we had a teacher that
Starting point is 01:22:46 His first name was Mac and He was just against the coolest old black guy of all time and there was a rumor that he was a pimp Literally because he was a fucking cool old black dude We found his first name was Mac. We were like, oh this guy's awesome. This rumor's true. It's true I think that's your best bet. I mean, this is all wholesome advice. Yeah, start rumors by yourself Backstory, yep, why anything online about you clean get rid of it So there's no you killed the home invader a guy tried I tried you and you guys there's so much I mean kids believe just headlines and not are you could you like you can do something with that? Absolutely. Yeah, that's great
Starting point is 01:23:24 That's good stuff. Guess another one little Eldons You can do something with that. Absolutely. Yeah, that's great. That's good stuff. Give us another one, little Eldons. Hi, Todd, Eldis and Guess. So here's my problem. I've been hooking up very casually with this guy since November. And at first I was down for it to be a totally casual thing because that's where my head Was that and honestly I found him kind of annoying
Starting point is 01:23:50 But pretty quickly unfortunately something switched for me and now I'm totally down bad If you text me I like feel amazing and if not, I feel terrible Honestly, the biggest factor is the dick is so good and I like how he touches him so much. So the problem is he's been very clear he's not looking for a relationship and will likely be out of my city and the country by the summer.
Starting point is 01:24:16 It's boring because I really don't want to deprive myself of top tier dick because of my feelings, but I'm just starting to feel really bad about this because I want more and it's so fleeting. I'm not interested in asking for something that I've already been told is off the table. That's good.
Starting point is 01:24:33 So I guess my question is, is there a way I can compartmentalize my feelings so I can keep hooking up with this guy or do I need to cut this off for my own sanity? I'm also wondering if there's a way I can express these feelings while continuing to keep things casual. I'm not like meet my parents, be my boyfriend,
Starting point is 01:24:50 but I am like I feel crazy and I wanna express how attracted to him I am without making it weird. Thanks, love y'all. Tough. Throat, I mean, blaze of glory. Lay it out on the table knowing that Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:25:04 Worst case scenario, That's a scenario that's a good first part is like you're gonna be out without good dick yeah I mean that's actually a good point you don't have anything to lose yeah like either way this guy this guy is probably out of the picture this is John Cusack 80s movie would come in yeah I mean this is like yeah go stand outside his window with a fucking boombox just blow it up But this is like I mean good for you for trying to rationalize it but it's like even within how how like you know
Starting point is 01:25:41 Deliberate you're being we can feel how horny you are. See, like, it's foaming under the base of this question, under the surface of this question. Like, yeah, and it's so funny how, like, if you're just good at fucking this guy who's annoying, she's like, oh, he's actually, I love him. Human beings are so easy to, like. Well, this is biology at its essence.
Starting point is 01:26:02 It's like, the dick was so good, I wanna be with him for life like this is To this day like the birth of this is creation. Yeah, I mean to this day the fur the girl a girl I can't stop thinking about it's like a girl the first girl who like yeah swallowed my nut I was like the first time that happened to me. I was like, it's this woman is in my heart forever We'll go like the first good pussy you get. Well, get married. We will get married now.
Starting point is 01:26:28 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now. And it is so pathetic, but it's like, the people you can't get over are the people that fuck the best. In my experience, maybe I'm just a fucking caveman. I'm sure they're whatever, whatever. Yeah, I think because you're shutting your brain,
Starting point is 01:26:41 you're not thinking about anything because it's so good. And then when your brain's empty, all the the thoughts all the positivity is rushing in. Yeah, this is yeah This is why tribes began is because of good dick Right, you are just followed. Yeah for women followed around the guy with good dick through the savanna. Yeah That's all you're talking about right now. But we also live in a modern world. Break it off, get out there. There's more dick around there. Yeah, so basically, yes.
Starting point is 01:27:11 I think it's one of two ways. The weird, like middle ground you're trying to do, I don't think exists. Like that's, you're just hoping that you can incrementally ratchet things up There's no like can I is there a way to say these feelings without being weird? It's like no not really you have to just be like I think if you want to what Kyle said at first like yeah What do you have to lose you can say hey? Here's how I feel about things
Starting point is 01:27:42 You know I've really enjoyed the time I totally get and to be honest with you. Okay, this will give you a glimmer of hope. That's probably not gonna happen One of a situation that happened with me is I was in a similar situation with a girl and I said the same shit Yeah, and I was like and you know last year I did this a few times where I was like said that you know I was dating I would see girls girls like in New York when I was all back home and you know most the time I had this conversation with them, and then they were like Okay, cool, and then like one or the other of us would fall off there was a girl who had this conversation with early and Over time I started feeling that way she didn't make these feelings known. Or I started being like, hmm,
Starting point is 01:28:25 I kinda like her a little bit, like whatever. She never made those feelings known to me and she was just like, hey, I had a lot of fun but I found a boyfriend. And which, you know, whatever. And then I realized after she said it, like oh fuck, I kinda wish that she had had that. Like, you have nothing to lose from having the conversation.
Starting point is 01:28:41 Because either he's gonna be like, oh, I'm flattered, thank you, but like I said earlier, I can't have anything serious right now. Or he will actually think about that and say, okay, I could maybe see these things. Yeah, some people's, not everybody's timelines match up, even though they might want the same thing,
Starting point is 01:29:00 they might not want it at the same time. Yeah. It's a, you love something, it's a you love something, set it free. And also, ah shit, you were making a good point that I was about to agree with, but that was about it. Yeah, you know, I also think that, yeah, just blow it up. There's no, the phrase that you said,
Starting point is 01:29:19 is there a way that I can compartmentalize my feelings? No, there's never a way. There's no way to compartmentalize. There's never a good idea for any feelings. And I will say statistically, this is always how these situations go. One or the other person develops feelings and that's the expiration date on it.
Starting point is 01:29:33 And you've reached it. And you also might want something because you know it won't work out. That's happened to me too. All you have to do is sit there and idealize it. That's a good point too. That's happened to me as well. You'll never be in it so you can be like,
Starting point is 01:29:44 well this will be perfect because it's not gonna happen so you just can daydream about it. That's a good point too. That's happened to me as well You'll never be in it so you can be like well, this will be perfect because it's not gonna happen So you just can daydream about it, right? Right, right being perfect and how you'll never what if we go to the farmers market? And then I get good dick Instead of just only getting it at 1 a.m. Yeah. So yeah, those are your options, baby girl You either got to just move on and just whatever or there is nothing There's you don't have anything to lose with giving it, just opening up, sharing your feelings. And if anything, it'll work one way or the other because either he will be kinda down
Starting point is 01:30:17 or he'll be like, ugh, this bitch caught feelings, I gotta go, and he might cut it off for you. But she sounds smart enough to know. Definitely, yeah. She knows the answer to her own question. I think a little bit just wants to hear somebody else I think so I think so But yeah, either way if you make that last stand and he doesn't go for it The the only the only downside is that guy now knows like oh this bitch has sprung I can just treat her however I want so when you make that if you decide to share your feelings You either start you either ratchet up how serious it is or you just get out of there immediately
Starting point is 01:30:49 And because he will that if he's a bad guy, which you might be too Digmatized to tell he'll just try and take advantage. He'll just you just know Oh, I have this I have this bitch in the back of my pocket forever Yeah, if you if you blow it up, he says no long con as if he comes back in a little while Forever if you if you blow it up he says no long Conn as if he comes back in a little while Don't yeah, don't engage after that but give it cool and listen cool if it's just over Hey, you had a nice run with some good dick. It's a night I still like I said I still think about the girls that gave who had some of the best pussy of all time and and I think of them
Starting point is 01:31:19 Fondly you'll care. I'll be on a bike ride. The Sun is hitting me just right now. Just be like chapters in our lives man Those were awesome titties When that metal piercing hit my molar That was awesome. All right, let's go. Let's get one to go out on a nice one here all this and we should say again Watch the special guys dirt nap out working working the people find it Kyle 800 pound gorilla media free on YouTube in a month or whenever this comes out beginning probably April probably then yeah it's free it's recently free on read to free with commercials the way I want it no
Starting point is 01:31:59 concern for punchlines and Ed for just an ad for better health. Just wedged into the best part, that's what I want. Hit us with a nice one to go out on Big LD. Hi, Stuv, I'm a long time listener, love the special. Thank you, thank you. Hello, Elvis, hello guests. I'm so happy that you're listening to this. So anyway, to get right to it I have lost about 70 pounds in the last like two years like we're talking like 220 down to like 150
Starting point is 01:32:33 And that that takes a toll on The woman's the woman the womanly figure you could say in that I have saggy boobs at 29 And I am sucking and fucking my way through St. Louis and every time I'm just like, is this man judging me for my saggy titties or do men truly not care? Like, should I be confident in myself despite, you know, my boobs hanging low? This is, yeah, I'm dead serious. This is really like folks at my stuff like Just any reassurance or anything you can you can offer to help me feel better. Thanks. Love you guys. Bye um Okay, so you're basically like well first of all you should be proud of you know
Starting point is 01:33:20 Yeah, worked hard for something and you're sucking and fucking and it's helped your it's even if it hasn't been I bet you could have been sucking and fucking through st. Louis even at 220 But now you might believe in yourself a little more like you've you've so you should be proud of that And you know you if your titties are hanging low I just think like if if you haven't sounds like you're doing good with your sex life, right and like Do men truly care do they not care? I mean, it's a case-by-case basis, right? Like some people yeah, you know I'll take titties in all shapes and sizes for sure You could also I don't know fucking wear a bra or so. I don't know
Starting point is 01:34:00 I got to know what the like what it ultimately comes down to what makes you feel better So I don't know like I don't know what to like what it ultimately comes down to what makes you feel better Well, do some men care sure some might do others not care. They won't care either You know, so it's just like it is a case-by-case thing Yeah I would say you did that work on yourself to lose that weight then don't negate that by now feeling bad about writing you And you put a lot of work in if there's somebody that's gonna be ungrateful for the fact that any type of you know Consensual intimacy Yeah, yeah, put them instantly and let them know they can get bent and also yeah st. Louis
Starting point is 01:34:36 I'm not trying to sure generalize a place to have some saggers, but I think you Saggers, but I think you're crushing it These slobs in st. Louis should be appreciative apps and also like you might be overdo it Here's the thing send us a picture your tits There's no way we can really give you but that is that's I mean, I'm joking obviously but But you also this also might be in your head. They might be a little saggy or whatever But it's like that's also natural right some people have like some people have saggy titty some people have dense titties They hang tight they hang low whatever they they come in all shapes and sizes thousand percent. I can't emphasize enough a
Starting point is 01:35:19 Confident person is Sexier than a person person with no confidence. That's true. Every single time. Most of the time. Let's not get crazy. Most of the time. There is a certain point where you hit that nexus. I want to paint with a white brush for the sake of feeling good. Listen, that's my whole thing is confident guy that looks like shit. But even I have to say this lifestyle has some limitations.
Starting point is 01:35:48 But still, yeah, it's like some part of me does wonder, are you being too harsh on yourself about your titties? Like, and either way, it sounds like you said it's fucking up your sex life, but I don't see how. But also if you're just, I mean, are you trying to get something else from all this sucking and fucking right? Well, if you're like if you're being unfulfilled and you're just sucking and fucking maybe we gotta look at yeah All the SNF has happened. Yeah, and then so what are you trying to get done? Are you are you looking to be in a relationship? Cuz like I can tell you you'll find someone who you know, that's not an issue there Like what are you trying to get done? Is it just your personal body image stuff?
Starting point is 01:36:25 Did you lose the weight and you're like, oh, this didn't help, it's still inside. Like, now there's something else. Cause I'll tell you this much, if it ain't your titties, it's gonna be something else. It's gonna be something else. Constantly there will be new insecurities to find. And then the flip side is also like, hey look,
Starting point is 01:36:43 if there is something that physically you wanna do to make yourself feel better, you did it with the weight loss, right? You worked hard, you lost 70 pounds. If you wanna like, you know, get a nice piece of lingerie that keeps your titties lifted up for a special occasion, treat yourself to some of that. If you wanna, sometime in the future,
Starting point is 01:37:01 get your titties done. You know what I mean? I think there's far less judgment on any kind of like cosmetic surgery. For sure for sure. Life is so short to not get the stuff you want within means. 100% and look if you want to do that great but I think. But don't feel the need to. You don't need yeah this is we're not saying like yeah get them fucking tuned up you won't have no problems whatsoever get them bigger even while you're while you're look while we're the doctor slice
Starting point is 01:37:29 The open you might as well get huge tits real rubbery ones But yeah koi fish eyes, so maybe this isn't So maybe that's not the reassurance you want but I think isn't so maybe that's not the reassurance you want but I think it's within you the answer unfortunately is within you right yeah yeah of course you can find how you look now whatever it is you can find whatever your goal is you can get that done if you believe in yourself right I really I think that truly I don't know you know you might be too harsh on your on the sag but there
Starting point is 01:38:04 is some you know there's clearly people out there that are that are down regardless And it's a matter of like what are your goals. I think you can accomplish them as is as you are But if you want it if you want to do other shit to like keep the keep the you know the the Personal the confidence shit boosting, that's possible too. But anyway. And maybe, I'd like to ask you,
Starting point is 01:38:28 are you just making up for like a time that maybe you were bigger and you weren't getting laid, so you're not just packing it all in, like the guy that got married at 19 is now divorced. And like maybe it'll slow down eventually, or are you like, is it like a sex and love addiction thing? Like that might turn into something else. Sure.
Starting point is 01:38:45 If you're just out there trying to get dick, who cares what they think? I also am wondering like, what is the like true motivation here, right? Like, cause you're asking do men care, but it's like, why does that really matter? You know what I mean? It's like- If you're using a sentence like,
Starting point is 01:39:00 I am sucking and fucking my way through St. Louis, which seems like a Johnny cash throw away well I fucked a man in Reno he fucked me in the ass I sucked a man's hard penis get me through that just to watch him come anyway, good luck buddy. I'm sure the titties are great. And you know, keep at whatever, if you wanna keep losing weight, you wanna keep doing self improvement,
Starting point is 01:39:33 you wanna, you're fine as is, but if you wanna tune some shit up, you're fine to do that too. Hopefully we answered your question and there's not, we didn't make a new insecurity for you. No, no, no. I think you should be proud of what you got done and then work in progress. Yeah. All right. Well, look, thanks for thank you for calling in.
