We've got Brandon Wardell.
Hello.
Alive and in the flesh.
Yes.
And here he is.
I mean, they might not know who I am.
You can introduce yourself.
What have you been in?
You've been in movies?
You were in I Think You Should Leave?
Yes.
You're in that sketch with Tim Heidecker?
Yeah, there's a sketch with Heidecker.
You have a great podcast.
Yeah, but still.
I've been on it twice.
Great episodes.
Fantastic episodes.
Probably the best.
Some of the best apps.
Yeah, by far.
Good MGK talk.
Oh my god, the MGK shit was fantastic.
I've been thinking about that a lot lately.
Did you notice he's just more in the news lately?
He's a happily married man now.
Yeah, very happily married.
Is he still married? Just watched the Hulu doc.
Did you actually watch that?
Machine Gun Kelly, Life in Pink.
And?
It's interesting.
It's Machine Gun Kelly propaganda for sure.
I saw one clip from it where he's like,
I called Megan and I thought i had a fucking shotgun in my
oh yeah and she's like don't do this and i was like oh yeah what the fuck dude they're so passionate
yeah i mean there's a it's funny there's like a lot of uh you know they're they're selling they're
trying to sell you on machine gun kelly for sure and you know like there's these scenes where, you know,
he's describing tumultuous moments that he's gone through recently
where he's talking about, like, you know,
dealing with the death of his father and, you know, that kind of thing.
But, you know, he's talking about, like, yeah, I got, you know,
I just have all these problems.
Like I'm dealing with so much pain
and I channel it into my lyrics
and then it'll cut to the actual music
and it's just him like,
I fell in love with an emo girl.
You know?
I still can't get over the shit
that we looked at on the podcast.
The Kendall?
Yeah, like I don't want to just...
Did they cover that at all?
Uh,
no,
no,
no,
no.
Cause he's like a producer on the documentary.
So like there's,
there's scenes,
there's scenes where,
there's scenes where they,
they show,
uh,
you know,
like I hate a hater montage or whatever,
but they choose like the lamest guys.
Like they're just choosing like
lame like webcam
guys just like
they're very
intentional in their curation of
who the haters are
so that's his new role
but yeah they're not really
using any of the
legitimate ammo
you know
there is a lot of legitimate ammo, you know?
Yeah, there is a lot of legitimate ammo with Machine Gun Kelly.
I mean, mostly just stinks.
I mean, I'm sure if I were to meet him, he'd...
I'm sure he's great.
I'm sure that he's like,
probably be nice and I'd feel bad.
But also, I don't know.
I mean, he seems like a volatile character
who's to say
what version of Machine Gun Kelly
I'd get I mean Coulson
is an actor
I mean
it's uh
yeah that candle clip is so funny
the candle clip and also the one where
don't let me move to LA
I'm snagging that
Brian wait till she's turning 18, dog.
I'll go now.
He had that list of the rock stars that did 14.
He had that ready.
He had it at the ready.
Lead singer of, I don't want to name the wrong band and accuse a singer of being a ****.
Alice Cooper?
Didn't he do something?
I think a lot of those rock stars did.
Do you guys have clips in this? Do you guys show clips?
We can show clips. Do you add clips in post?
Sure. We can tell our editor.
Can we have the editor have him add the clip?
The MGK clip? Yeah, everyone just give this woman a watch.
Don't let me move to LA. Oof. I'm fine in her.
I'm not waiting until she's 18. I'll go now.
Courtesy of Brandon
I mean we don't own the clip
But we can use it
Because we're talking about it
You can use it
Fair use
Exactly
Fair use
I'd like to see him
Try to sue our fucking asses
Uh huh
Yeah
He doesn't seem
How litigious
Is Machine Gun Kelly
He's probably got
A pretty good legal team
Sure
He's very rich and famous
So he probably
And I don't know
With some of the things
He's saying in those clips, dude,
he's got to have a good legal team.
Where he's talking about, man, the craziest sex stuff I've done,
man, it's illegal.
And there's not many sex things that are illegal.
Yeah.
Besides like...
No, there's one in particular.
Yeah.
Well, there's two I can think of.
There's animals.
Yes.
That one.
And then family stuff.
Which is that technically...
Sodomy, depending on the state. Maybe he that technically sodomy depending on the state
maybe he just had sodomy
and he's like dude it's illegal man
yeah what's the
how does that
prosecuting somebody for sodomy work
I mean that was a supreme court case
a very big one Oglethorpe
first like I think it was Oglethorpe
something the supreme court was taking a look at it again recently uh-huh uh and i learned what sodomy was through church so in my
head i just thought it was anal sex right that's what which which was sinners do isn't it yes isn't
it just anal sex i don't think anal sex itself is is legally a u.s. No, until like a certain point, it was.
Yeah.
Like it was illegal.
Like sodomy was a crime.
Yeah.
So like,
which the whole Supreme Court case
was like,
I think the cops busted
into the wrong house
and there were two men having sex.
Yeah.
They were like,
get him!
And they arrested them
and then like charged them
with like sodomy,
even though it was
a complete wrong house.
So then dude's like,
am I getting charged
for having gay sex?
And they went to the Supreme Court
and they ruled to the supreme court
and they ruled like in his favor like it you know i mean you can have butt sex if you that's a term
no one says anymore but that's very like a like a seventh grade south park term but like we got
to bring it back try everyone just like that into like a conversation and like in a relationship
you're in or something butt sex thatacks. That is very, it is very
eighth grade
sort of
everything is AIDS.
Yeah.
Like,
yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
It's very.
Harkens back
to a different time.
Yes.
Like the great family guy
song about
fucking
Brokeback Mountain,
which,
have you seen
Brokeback Mountain?
No.
You haven't either?
No.
It's devastating, dude. it's such a good movie though
I thought about re-watching it recently
that movie fucking
it's
you know cause like
I was like
I'll watch this
it's all the jokes
family guy
I was like
what if it's funny
it's a beautiful movie
I thought it was just gonna be like
cheesy and dumb
and I sat down
I sat my white ass down
and I listened
and I cried
I cried my ass off at the end of that movie.
It's devastating.
I mean, Heath Ledger.
I mean, they commit a crime.
Gyllenhaal.
Sodomy.
Yeah.
Who are their wives in the movie?
Anne Hathaway.
I don't remember.
I was just focused on the tent scenes

God has forced
my hand into acknowledging it
on stage. I have to.
I gotta, you know.
I saw you do stand-up once, actually.
At the Lodge Room before you opened for Adam Friedland.
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Did you open for Stav, too?
Yeah, I mean, when they're in town, yeah.
We went and saw Stav at the Lodge Room.
Maybe you opened.
When was that?
It was a couple years ago.
I wasn't on that one.
But the most recent Stav visit to LA.
It was like three consecutive.
You were at the, when we did the Yeah But Still Live at the Lodrum.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was the same week.
It was like two nights of Stav, and then we did the podcast.
Yeah, you did two back-to-back shows at the Lodrum, and you had fucking the Austin Powers impersonator.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, right.
Yeah, we had two shows at the Lodrum.
When I was talking to him, I was just surprised that he doesn't drop character.
He does the voice the whole time, which—yeah, do you want to explain the Austin Powers impersonator to the folks at home?
It's pretty easy to explain.
My next guest needs no introduction.
He, uh, he's an, oh, fuck.
Oh, shit.
More mics?
Yeah, that's a lot of Mike's Hard Lemonade.
Oh, jeez.
More White Claw?
Are you boys thirsty?
Look at that.
Sure, yeah.
Thanks, bro.
I will say, I do remember, wasn't it?
We might have a few more.
Yeah, champagne.
Okay, okay. Jesus Christ, dude.
Oh, boy.
Did you ask for more White Claw?
Lordy, lordy, lordy.
What's up?
I don't...
I didn't ask, but...
What is this, Variety Pack No. 3?
Strawberry, mango, blackberry, pineapple.
Anyway, he impersonates Austin Powers.
He does a fantastic job.
He does...
It's uncanny.
It is.
But he will...
He did Daddy Wasn't There.
He did the BBC song.
Yeah, he knew Daddy Wasn't There is my favorite Austin Powers song.
I think it's a good song.
I'm more nostalgic for the Goldmember movie than any of the other ones.
Because that's the first one I got to see in theaters.
Oh, yeah.
Because the other ones I was probably like, I never saw any in theaters.
Anyway, Brandon, yeah, he's a fantastic Austin Powers.
You've had him on the podcast.
Yes.
I like someone in the audience. Is he a frequent guest or is it just the one. You've had him on the podcast. Yes. Yeah, I... I like someone in the audience.
Is he like a frequent guest or is it just like once?
We've had him on once.
I mean, he was at my birthday.
And there was like, people were like,
oh man, who hired you the Austin Powers impersonator?
And I was like, no, I took matters into my own hands.
That was all me.
But, yeah, I've done live shows where he's come out.
And what I love about this Austin Powers impersonator,
who we should say his name, Richard Halpern.
Richard Halpern has the Austin Powers impersonator handle on Instagram.
Instagram.com
slash
Austin Powers Impersonator
Luke throw up the picture of me with him so people can see how
uncanny this is
maybe the one with me as well
and then photoshop one with me
and put Ryan in it
I just want to feel included
well yeah you're kind of the only person here who doesn't really have
see I'd love to like introduce him
but also that's like y'all's thing
so we can't steal
Matt sent me photos
yeah
but no video or anything
it wasn't even a live photo
so I couldn't like sneak
yeah
well
hey can I get a video
fun thing about talking
to that guy
is that
if you
you ask him about
so the first place
I ever met him
was at an
Austin Powers themed bar
in Glendale
the electric pussycat
we lived less than a block from there.
We lived on that block. That's where we started Super Mega.
Which is like, and there was
a mini me impersonator.
I remember one time I
had gone to Electric Pussycat
a couple times and then the third time I went
there was a cover charge which I was like
that's strange. Something has shifted
here. I walk in. I order
my favorite Austinin powers themed
cocktail it's like a blue cryogenic drink uh and mojo yeah you're drinking mojo you're off the mojo
but i asked for that and then the bartender keep in mind the bar looks the exact, the decor is as it was before.
Yeah.
But she goes, oh yeah, sorry, we don't really do that whole Austin Powers thing anymore.
I'm like, why does it, it still looks the same.
It's just you don't have the Austin Powers guys come out.
But, you know, he's a fascinating guy. That's what fucking wokeism is doing to America now.
This is what they took away from us.
Never forget what they took away from you.
It's wild talking to him about the electric pussycat
because he will talk about crooked business practices,
but he's still doing the voice.
He's like, oh, they were investing money, baby.
First of all,
RIP to that place.
It shut down.
I wonder why.
But we lived, so,
our apartment, if you looked,
both of our bedroom windows,
you look out, yeah,
it's across from our old place.
It was next door to King Taco.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, next door to King Taco.
And I remember, like,
you could look out our windows and just hear it going off at night.
And, like, I'd be laying in bed because we had...
Was it a themed bar at that point in time?
Yeah.
So little...
To our knowledge...
We literally lived...
That thumping and that, like...
It was so loud every night.
It was just Austin Powers people and shit?
Yes.
Brandon was probably there while we were fucking living there.
I might have been there.
Imagine what a fucking fever dream
it would have been because we're like both like
kind of newly plucked from
South Carolina like just walking into
a fucking Austin Powers
themed bar. Not to mention
two buildings down is a Scientology building.
It's like but they don't like
brand it as that. It's like the
pathway to happiness. You're like what is this? And you walk
by and look inside. It's a self-help program at first.
Yeah.
And they don't say Scientology,
but.
I was just watching that,
uh,
Lewis Thoreau Scientology.
Oh,
I wanted to watch that one.
It's good.
The HBO one is crazy.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
Going clear.
I mean,
this is at least cause it's,
well,
cause it's like him.
It's like kind of funny at points,
you know?
No, he does great fucking documentaries.
I like his one on the Westboro Baptist Church, too.
Oh, yeah, I got to watch it.
He's the man.
Yes.
It's so weird that he's like, now he's like a TikTok trend.
Is that right?
That my money don't.
Oh, yeah, because he did that video.
He did like an, interview show.
It's, like, I can't remember the name of it,
but it's, like, something, something, having wings.
Like, it's funny to be this, like,
very, like, accomplished documentarian
for, like, 20 years,
and all of a sudden 13-year-olds are just like,
yeah, the TikTok...
It blew up.
It was everything.
Song guy.
Yeah.
I mean mean that's
that's kind of how
it goes now
that's how it goes
you know
it's fucking
you have all these
these great
comics
well I didn't know
I didn't know it was him at first
it was like this whole
like I heard it
and I was like
okay I get the trend
and then all of a sudden
the clip comes on
it was from that
like interview show
and I'm like
Jesus Christ
chicken shop dude cause I haven't thought about him since he like
the his
Scientology documentary yeah
Yeah, would you give this to Brandon? Oh, is this a big big surprise? It's not the big surprise. It's a big surprise
Yeah
Hey
Get yourself something nice.
Oh, look at...
Oh, boy.
Oh, there it is.
That's right.
Oh, it's...
Wait, it's a...
There...
Can we zoom...
Well, nobody's here to zoom in.
But...
The editor can.
Right there, that camera.
The editor can.
It's a...
Do you do the jump zooms?
We could.
Not on the podcast. I mean, we could do it real goofy with the... The editor can. Do you do the jump zooms? We could.
Not on the podcast.
I mean, we could do it real goofy with the whoop whoop.
People love doing those.
That's a big YouTube thing.
And we are guilty of that as well as YouTubers.
Not so much anymore. Look at that.
Yeah.
There it is.
It's Donald Trump's second presidential term coin.
There's the Trump coin.
Family to us.
It's a piece of history.
Yeah.
Man, have you guys ever talked about his tweets on here?
Trump's tweets?
Yeah, just don't you miss him being on there?
First I thought you were talking about Louis Theroux.
Oh, no.
Okay, Trump.
Hey, Covfefe.
Yeah, Brandon, we got a little Covfefe and hamburgers for you after the podcast is done well he can't tell me more because matt and i
pulled some strings yes we did yep oh thank you thank you for that you're welcome um that that
one uh that graydon carter tweet there's a bunch of. But he has the one where he's like,
Editor-in-Chief of Vanity Fair and owner of bad food restaurants.
Graydon Carter has a problem.
His Vanity Fair Oscars party is no longer hot.
His tweets were funny.
My favorite one was the nipples protruding. Oh, the Barney Frank one.
Oh, Barney Frank.
Barney Frank.
Brandon Waddell looked disgusting in front of Congress.
Nipples protruding.
I feel like that's kind of...
I mean, I...
Yeah, I feel like that has eclipsed everything else about Barney Frank.
That's all I know Barney Frank for.
And to be honest, it is pretty bad.
If you look at the picture of Barney Frank in front of Congress.
His nipples were protruding.
Were they?
Yeah.
They were protruding.
It's like, yeah.
Wait, did he upload it with the picture?
No, that's just someone paired it.
Yeah, they were really out to play.
Barney Frank looked disgusting.
Dash, dash, nipples protruding.
Dash, dash, and his blue shirt before Congress. Very, very disrespectful. Out to play. Dash dash. Nipples protruding. Dash dash. In his blue shirt before Congress.
Very, very disrespectful.
In his blue shirt.
I like how he gets very specific for no reason.
Very, very disrespectful.
Do you think that tweet's gonna be in like history books?
If they put any of his tweets.
I hope they put that one.
Honestly, like you can just
Well, not anymore.
Well, yeah, actually almost definitely.
Because that was kind of a defining quality about him during oh yeah it's gonna be in history books but yeah you know it's like I don't know which ones
mm-hmm hopefully that one hopefully that one
I'm big fan of that one they'll probably just do the ones about the January 6th
stuff or yeah boring none of the hits none of the hits none of like him getting uh it's well
because honestly the the best tweets were kind of pre-presidency but they were he got some hits off
he got some hits off in office for sure have you seen the tweet about brain what oh yes the the one
where it's like hey your dad gives good brain and he's like yes i have great
genes yeah it was young bass god at real time your dad gives good brain damn and he goes he
retweets it and goes it's called genes oh my god yeah there was so many big classic there were so many errors of his Twitter that just...
I'm not gonna
say I miss the guy
on Twitter.
I do miss him on Twitter.
That's not an endorsement.
Yeah, no.
I love
Donald Trump as much as the next guy.
But his tweets were pretty...
They could be bangers.
Well, when he wasn't promoting the actual death threats and bigotry and shit.
Show me one.
When was he posting death threats?
He posted one against Ryan.
Oh, yeah.
And that was like not very cool.
Well, because of the power he held.
Yeah. It's like a Bill Clinton
situation
I felt like Monica Lewinsky
I mean you're very similar
to Monica Lewinsky
in a lot of ways
thank you
I've been secretly
recording you
and I gave it to the
FBI
I just finished that
the Bill Clinton
American Crime Story series.
How was it?
Beanie Feldstein plays Monica Lewinsky.
It was really good.
That's a Ryan Murphy program.
Is that the Glee man?
Yeah.
You remember when there was that?
Do you remember on Glee when there was that?
Yeah. You know what I'm talking about
yeah I never watched Glee
I heard about that
it was the girl
when they were being brave
it's the girl
with Down Syndrome
and she's got a Glock
oh this is not
what I was thinking of
she's got a Glock
in what story context
does she have a Glock
what
this is the
I've only seen the
or do you mean the actress
has a Glock
in a separate phone?
No, in the show
She's just walking down the street
Literally, when I pull up
Chrome to search this
Immediately
When I search
When I start typing in Glee
My phone knows
Oh, Glee Down Syndrome Gun
Hey, you can just leave it at the door, thank you
Yeah, there you just leave it at the door. Thank you.
Yeah, there you go.
There it is.
That's the... That's the...
How do we...
This?
What?
Yeah.
Oh, not you.
Sorry.
Who are you...
I'll open the door.
Jamba Juice.
Jamba Juice?
Oh, boy.
Sorry, he's got to get his juice.
Yeah. He'll look at it when heamba Juice. Jamba Juice? Oh, boy. Sorry, he's got to get his juice. Yeah.
He'll look at it when he gets back.
The juice is loose.
What?
I'm trying to...
I'm trying to just be decent about it and be Glee Gun.
Am I missing a keyword in there?
Glee Down Syndrome Gun.
Do I have to type that in?
I feel bad if I do.
Why?
What's wrong with that?
There's nothing wrong with it.
You sounded like me when I said disability.
Okay.
We'll see if I'm putting in the magic keyword.
I accidentally clicked on shopping.
Sorry. Hold on.
Oh, yes. I accidentally clicked on shopping. Sorry. Hold on. Oh, yes.
I'm sorry about that.
In what context does this happen
in this show? I don't know.
I gotta find out. It's a shame
that I haven't...
You don't know the context?
I think it's
a school shooting episode.
Yeah. They made the girl
with Down syndrome be the school shooter?
They gave her the burner.
What the fuck, dude?
Does she ice anyone?
Maybe she's a good guy
with a gun.
Probably.
See, that would be
a good hero arc.
Yeah.
Like, if a school shooter
comes in and then
she stops it.
I have to watch this episode.
We have to watch it now.
I have to have answers.
I know.
We gotta watch this. Have you looked to watch it now. I have to have answers. I know. We got to watch this.
Have you looked up, like, maybe the context?
I was reading an article.
I searched Down Syndrome Block, and, well, a lot of things come up.
But nothing about Glee comes up when I search that.
Do you remember?
Is that the name of this episode?
There's a name of the show
and it's a cop
it's an old
YouTube show
oh yeah
dude
what
that's old school
YouTube
right
yeah
what is it
I mean it's the name
of the show
you had to have seen it
it's the name
of the show
this is like
I mean it doesn't matter
it's the name of the show
and like
he was fully okay
with the show
and like being
I haven't checked up on it.
Yeah, he said he, yeah.
Oh, yeah, I can guess.
Oh, yeah, okay.
You remember that?
I don't, but I know what it's, I can guess what the title was.
Tobuscus was in an episode.
That's fucking right, dude.
Yep.
A lot of people were.
Oh, yeah.
I was like, dude, that.
When he was in an episode?
Tobuscus.
Do you know who Tobuscus is?
Brandon, we have to get you up.
I know that you're in like.
He just did a video with Kyle Rittenhouse and everything.
I know that you're in like the comedy sphere.
Which I guess is more respectable than what we do.
But we got to get you up to speed on some of these people.
Tobuscus was a Let's Player.
I'm not half as clouded as you folks.
Well, I haven't been on Curb Your Enthusiasm.
But you have been
on a TV show with Danny McBride.
I am in the pilot for
Vice Principals. Oh, is the guy
hitting on his 13-year-old
daughter, yeah. Do you have a line? In the show.
No. Well, I'm talking, but you can't hear me.
Oh, yeah. But
he comes up and he's like,
put your shirt on to his daughter.
Do you want to act more?
I'd love to.
Ryan needs to fucking act.
Ryan is an incredible actor.
It's my dream.
Honestly, like,
Ryan is probably the best actor
I've ever met.
It's true.
It's actually, like, insane.
Wow.
I love acting, though.
I think, you know,
maybe if a studio
wanted to give us a budget,
or, you know,
if Lorne Michaels
wanted to notice us.
I don't want to...
We could make a really good movie
if someone just gave us a few million dollars.
A couple million.
Just throw us a few bones.
Throw a brother a bone.
Look how much Disney's making.
If I could just give us like a million,
two million, three million.
Fund our projects.
Because we won't.
I want to be the next SNL cast member.
What? Children. What?
Children.
What?
Nothing.
Jake Novak needs to be in whatever movie we make.
He still hasn't released anything?
Yeah.
Maybe by the time this episode comes out, he has.
Poor guy.
I mean, it's so...
He did the best move possible.
Like, the best thing he could have done in that situation was just go silent.
Well, it's
you know i mean because everybody started i don't know he's he's not he did anything illegal it was
canceled no like he's just like he didn't do anything wrong i mean yeah he did i mean kind of
he did you know a bad gun song he got yeah like I do think that I
What what occurred with Jake Novak is that I think that this was like a lot of
sort of overdue bullying
Because like for him what made those videos he wasn't't bullied before those videos. No one told him.
Or maybe all throughout his life, throughout bullying, he stuck to his moral code and his character. And he's like, no, this makes me happy and I'm going to do it.
He's just incredibly resilient.
I mean, yeah.
Now he's famous.
The gun videos.
I like the thumbnail.
The thumbnail is like, bad gun.
The thumbnail with the text that just says, bad gun.
And it's him like.
It's like all lowercase Helvetica.
It's like.
Bad gun.
The very end of that song where he's like, we're crying, but we're not fools.
And then he's, oh, there's like kind of a long pregnant pause.
And he just has that look.
He like looks down the barrel of the camera like a little too long.
It could have like stopped there,
but it's just like...
Yeah.
He's not...
He's a...
I've gathered that he's a straight man.
Okay.
Do you think Jake...
Do you think...
I'm not...
I don't...
I don't know his sexuality.
I don't want to speculate on the man's sexuality.
I gather he's a straight.
Jake Novak's beating the pussy up.
Jake Novak's hitting those back walls crazy.
That's why he hasn't uploaded.
He's been drowning in pussy.
Jake Novak could be one of those white dudes,
like the nerdy white dude,
but somehow he's like a huge cock.
And everyone's like, whoa, what? And no one but somehow it's like a huge cock and everyone's
like whoa what yeah and no one would expect it but then they see it and they're like what
yeah so i could see like him rocking a hog but he doesn't look very tall yeah you know like yeah i'm
not saying that short people have smaller penises i can look up how tall he is i'm sure it's on the
internet he's under six foot there's nothing wrong with being under six. Ryan, you're 5'11 and a half.
You're six foot.
It's fine.
5'9 is the height of an average man, for the record.
And I'm, so I'm not short.
I'll tell you.
I'm 5'9.
So you're just average.
I'm an average height man.
But there's, you know.
Is it just 5'9 is average? Or is there like a is it just five nine is average or is
there like a but you know you know i'm you know i'm size 13 foot yeah and i mean damn actually
those are huge ass shoes dude big big big big big feet our editor justin wears like 50 14s i think
14 and a half yeah 14 and a half? Oh yeah.
He's in the other room editing right now.
He's got some big Crocs on today.
I wear 11s.
10 and a half or 11.
It depends on the shoe.
We could try each other's shoes out.
You're pretty much the same, right?
Some shoes I need a 10 and a half
to be tighter. They're too loose if they're 11.
Some 10 and a halfs are too small.
How do we get on it?
We got to get in the complex sneaker shopping.
I want to become a sneaker head.
I want to go drop six grand on a pair of sneakers that I'll never put on.
Just sit them on a shelf.
Yeah, I'm very, very much.
Yeah, wear your damn shoes.
You bought them. Wear the damn shoes. Yeah, fucking, you bought them.
Wear the damn shoes.
You bought them.
You know?
Isn't there a pair of shoes that you refuse to wear?
No.
Because you don't want to ruin them or something?
No, if I bought them.
Oh, which ones were those?
So there's this pair of, I just spit everywhere.
There's this pair of shoes I've always wanted, but they're $5,000.
And I'll never be able to justify buying those.
But it's this Nike 7-Eleven
collab and like it's
you know, I got the tattoo and like it's the
7-Eleven colors and it looks sick as fuck.
But they're like five grand.
And I'm like, if I got those, it's like, well it'd be a waste
if I didn't wear them. Is it like a Japanese
exclusive? I don't know.
I'll show you. They're actually like, they're so fucking
cool. If any like rich fans out there
want to make my day, you guys could mail me those we get sent Tim's
Yeah, what what different?
Difference look at these fucking Nike 711s
You still have the gumps though Air Force gun. Oh, dude. Oh, yeah, okay. They went down actually wait

2700 okay, let me see these Okay Wait, I'm seeing websites saying $150,000 and then websites, StockX, saying $2,700,000.
Okay, let me see these.
Okay.
Oh.
I like those.
It goes with my tattoo.
Yeah.
Not the colors, but thematically.
Yes.
This seems like your style.
Well, if you guys ever see me wearing a $5,000 pair of shoes.
This is saying $139.
Yeah, but then scroll more.
Oh.
I feel like those must be scam websites or like a starting bid.
Okay, yeah.
Well, only 20.
Oh, I'm looking at the 3D sort of the StockX.
Oh, yeah, dude.
You can rotate it.
Really?
StockX used to sponsor this podcast.
Maybe they could send me the shoes.
Yeah, I mean, it's a little too bright for my taste.
Yeah, let's see.
Last time they sold was for $2,500.
This website's saying up to $6,000.
I wear black Crocs every day, so I can't really nudge in on this too well.

Every guest that's on the podcast takes a sip out of the Hennessy bottle, and it's almost done.

Nice. For sure.
Come on. You got this, Matt. He's taking a wild sip.
Just kill it. Just took the sip. It's like, just kill it.
We gotta save it for the rest of the guests.
Do you want the rest?
No, no, no.
I mean...
Do you want to just take...
You should kill it.
No.
Matt should kill it.
If it's enough for one more guest, maybe Hasan can kill it.
Hasan will kill it.
It'll be the last sip.
Would you be the honorary last sip?
Yeah.

Most popular youtubers from South Carolina mmm came out of fucking nowhere brutal was even he has his own Chipotle collab and everything from Charles
It's from Charleston. Well, I'm from Columbia, so I guess I still have...
We could still have that.
You went to college in Columbia as well.

Strom Thurman.
Aziz Ansari's from South Carolina.

Chadwick Boseman.

Mm-hmm.
You're Gamecocks.
We're Gamecocks, yeah.
We went to USC each for one year and then dropped out to do YouTube.
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
I actually was surprised at how supportive my parents were of that idea.
Well, they were out of money.
They were like, we have enough for one more semester, and you just finished your first
two semesters.
So if you want to try it.
Is this still Jim's bath towel?
Yeah.
That stinks.
That's so, that's like, I.
I mean, he's clean when he, okay, I'll use my shirt.
For the listeners at home, the viewers at home,
did you explain this towel situation?
We might have before.
It's on our episode with Sabrina,
and I don't know if this is coming out before or after that,
but basically Jim took a shower.
There's no towels, and there was a hand towel,
so Jim dried his whole body with a hand towel.
I needed something to open the champagne with.
I find the hand towel.
I'm like, sweet purses.
And then I'm sipping out of the bottle and everything.
We all are.
And he's like, oh, I dried myself with a hand towel today.
I was like, this one? And he's like, oh, I dried myself with a hand towel today. I was like, this one?
And he's like, yeah.
This has been inside Jim's hole.
Jim's hole.
Yeah.
That sounds like some, like, place off the beaten path.
Jim's hole.
In the woods.
Jim's hole.
We're hiking to Jim's hole today.
Well, Brandon, we have another surprise for you.
Why don't you reach under your seat?
Yeah.
What are we looking at?
A little far. You almost got it.
Oh, boy.
Okay. Yep.
Go ahead and open her up.
There it is.
And then what's...
What's this?
There you go, buddy.
This is flour?
That's $35,000 of cocaine.
Oh, wow.
We treat our guests good.
This is good shit.
Oh, man.
Cut this open with a knife?
Yeah, you can taste it if you want to see if it's real.
Do you have a knife we can cut?
Yeah, I have a pocket knife, actually.
I have a pocket knife in my pocket. Usually you want to get it on the gums
What happened to it?
It's not in my pocket anymore
We could use keys
Brandon's just like fully thinking we're joking
Just like suddenly
This actually is $35,000 worth of cocaine
What do you think we spend the YouTube money on, dude?
Oh, boy.
We definitely relish in excess here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's good.
Mm-hmm.
You can take that with you when you go.
Oh, thank you, bro.
Get pulled over.
I'm trying to wrap it up, so then...
Layton didn't do a very good job packing that brick.
Sorry about that.
Yeah.
I told him to get, like...
You can put it in the bag so it doesn't spill everywhere.
Get duct tape.
Yeah, take it.
Jack can have some, too, if he wants.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Thanks.
I'll send him your regards.
We're like Sigmund Freud for many reasons,
but Sigmund Freud loved cocaine so much
he would give it to people as a gift
at, like, birthdays and Christmas and stuff.
Yeah.
Yeah, in fact.
He also wanted to fuck his mom.
Oh.
Bro, I feel like he just wanted to fuck his mom.
Oh, I literally like...
Oh, everyone wants to.
Yeah, Ben said this vis-a-vis Sigmund Freud.
Everyone wants to?
That was what he was saying.
The Sigmund Freud thing is like...
I thought you just threw that out as like a
of course everyone wants to
like yes
it's obvious
yeah
actually I literally
just started doing
a bit about this
but now
but I'm sure
a lot of people have
happened upon this
great minds man
you know
you know
yeah you can do it
you just gotta
when you're on stage
doing the bit
you just gotta be like
yeah this one's co-written
by YouTubers Matt and Ryan
from SuperMaker.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, you know, easy.
I feel like, maybe I should
just not do it. No, it's good.
Maybe I should just not do it. No, do it, man.
No, it's fine. Do the fucking bit, man.
No, I don't, you know. I don't have to do it anymore.
We can do it.
Yeah.
We tag team stand-up. We're the first stand-up duo, and we do stand't have to do it anymore. We can do it. Yeah. We tag team stand-up.
We're the first stand-up duo, and we do stand-up at the same time.
We say all the jokes and the punchlines at the same time, play off each other,
and the Sigmund Freud thing is good.
That's definitely something we can do.
I like that a lot.
I want to steal more of his stuff.
No, not the cocaine Jokes
It's content
Do you write your
Your jokes in a little joke book?
Yeah you know
A little diary?
A little notebook yeah
If someone stole it would you be
Would you be anxious?
Um yeah I mean That you've lost all your jokes? Um If someone stole it, would you be anxious?
Yeah, I mean... That you've lost all your jokes?
You know, this might be a problem.
Why, are there some bad jokes in there?
I mean, yeah, it's also...
It's all just inward jokes.
Yeah, there's a manifest, so...
These words... These words, these words... They shock you. Yeah. There's like manifest. So yeah. These words,
these words,
these words,
they shock you.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Some Afro Americans.
I cannot believe he,
it's almost like this is his greatest comedy act.
He's like,
this is going to be really funny from start to finish.
I'm just going to like lambast myself on national television.
Make just a complete,
like,
like he's like, this is the ultimate form of comedy every time you go back and re-watch it it gets worse and worse and worse
i remember when it happened november uh uh four seven oh six it was a friday he's in our book he's
a he's a central character in our book oh yeah yeah and that actually the laugh factory scene
is like a crucial plot point in the book.
And he survived so he could come up in the sequel too.
But I'm not saying, I'm not promising anything.
Yeah.
But if people wanted him in the sequel.
Yeah.
If they, well he goes, he went to Guantanamo Bay.
We could break him out.
Is the super mega save the troops?
I've yet to read.
Maybe I'll take a copy on the way out.
You can buy one.
I could give you...
I have cash.
You can have a copy.
No, it's fine.
I mean, I'll support the cause.
It's self-published.
Yeah.
It's good quality.
So we had to fully fund that.
There was no publisher putting on money.
And, you know, it's an expensive task mass producing a book
we weren't recognized by the New York Times
we qualified to be number one on New York Times bestseller list
and because it's not sold
in like traditional stores
they're just like nope
oh it doesn't count
so the New York Times bestseller list actually
isn't like a ranking it's basically they
can just not a list of the best books out right now no they can just they pick and choose and if
they don't like certain books even if they do great they're like so i i learned a lot about
i read about the new york times bestseller list when we published the book because that was our
goal it's like there's no specific store that they know of because it's like very secretive
that like you can just like it's not like you can just be in Barnes & Noble.
You also have to show up in smaller shops as well.
You can't just be in one.
They make it really fucking...
I don't want to go with a publisher, though, because they're going to take 40%.
I want to be a New York Times bestseller.
I want to be a New York Times bestseller.
I want to be an ex-SNL cast member.
I want to be on the...
And here's why we should be a contender.
I think Lorne Michaels has seen that.
I think that
he
himself has not seen it, but
I'm sure that
everybody around him has
seen it.
I'm sure that everybody on that program
has seen that.
Do you think they'd go as far
to have him make a little surprise appearance?
That's probably why he went quiet, man.
He's on the show.
Yeah, he's flying out to New York.
Is he based in New York?
He's in LA.
Oh, so he's flying out?
No, he works at Disneyland.
Disneyland, he works at Disneyland.
He's been driving to New York.
He went to the U-Haul.
Once they found where he worked,
it was like...
Well, they found where he works
because if you just go on his Instagram, it's there.
Oh, yeah.
He's in the barbershop quartet.
He's one of the guys in the barbershop quartet.
So I could have run into him.
We might have walked past him at some point.
That was a nice moment of reflection.
Just knowing that this strange world of ours.
Yeah. You know, like our paths, we probably passed jake novak multiple times in our life you know you know we're from the same
state and we went to some of the same things growing up when as we were little kids out here
so it's like maybe we crossed paths with when we were kids i had no idea is that the good stuff
it's prosecco yeah raffino it's it's you, you know, it's no Aperol Spritz.
Well, it's one element of an Aperol Spritz.
How do you feel about that one?
Oh.
You know.
A little messy.
I made a little mess.
Prosecco base.
Prosecco is my favorite.
I love Prosecco.
I told Leighton to get champagne, not Prosecco.
But, you know. Yeah know he brings 18 fucking Coronas
well and he got
two packs yeah
two six packs Mike's Hard Lemonade
I'm surprised you didn't go for another
White Claw honestly
seems like you're kind of you loved the last one
it's just kind of a
it's a nice sort of low commitment
yeah you gotta drive out of here yeah the last one you had. Well, it's just kind of a, it's a nice sort of low commitment. Yeah.
You gotta drive out of here.
Yeah.
Yeah, so I gotta,
so I gotta drink a couple more.
Yeah.
Come on.
Hey, come on now.

I'm in service of him
on that project.
I kind of take a back seat.
