Yeah? Yeah, we're going to be at CSUN in Northridge. That is this Saturday, March 16th, at the Valley Center for Performing Arts, a guy who just has a ton of good old-fashioned wisdom. Yeah, I would love to talk to him. His wisdom with great depth of learning, which is that rare combo.

Man has traveled, speaks fluent Russian. I mean, there's incredible, I need to talk to him, academics. Ooh, wee. But you and he will differ on many things academically. Like what, really? Well, because he never was a student. He didn't like homework. I mean, he was sort of above everything. He will differ on many things academically. Like what? Really? Well, because he never was a student. He didn't like homework.

I mean, he was sort of above everything. He was past everything when he was doing it. But like- That's a forget differ. I have absolute awe for that. No, you have awe, but it's not the way you would have raised your kids. They would have done homework. He didn't do homework.

And let me ask you, Drew, this homework business. I know I seem like a, I feel, like I've said many times, I'm a, I'm a alien. Who's come from the future to come back to present time to be annoyed. No, I know, and I keep asking you, I do think you have a keen insight into lots of things I keep asking what is the future what you keep saying?

We're gonna swing back, but I don't know when and when when tell me oh alien well What does the next ten years hold? Who's gonna win the Kentucky Derby? I don't know anything I just know people and I know what works and what doesn't work something that's lava nuke at us You know, I mean, You know what I mean? Yeah, I don't know. Whatever we're doing is not working now.

Well, but it kinda is. Because I think the generation coming up is getting fed up with all this shit and wants to sort of have some autonomy and work hard and, you know what I mean? I guess when you say fed up, you mean fat. Yes, you're right. They're getting fat up.

Now, here's, but so anyway, riddle me this. My kids go to school for seven hours a day, and they're in the first grade, the first grade. I take them to a place that our tax dollars theoretically pay for and they go in there and they get educated or whatevered. Probably more brainwashed.

I called someone stupid the other day. Both my kids said, you don't say the S word. I said, what are you talking about? That's like, I thought I said shit. They said, no, it's another S word. It's stupid, you don't say stupid. I said. That was Italian, not Sun.

No, it was both of them. And I tell them all the time, daddy says stupid all the time, and get used to it. Because there's plenty of stupid people out there. And as a matter of fact, there's more of them than there are smart people. And stupid is not a bad word. It's an accurate description of plenty of stupid people out there, and as a matter of fact, there's more of them than there are smart people. And stupid is not a bad word, it's an accurate description of many of the people that are walking this fucking planet.

So the idea that we're- Don't say the F word, daddy. The idea, oh, the F word would be fine to their teachers. But believe you me, fuck would be a whole lot less egregious than stupid in the environment. They met fat, they met fat when than stupid in the environment. They're being indoctrinated into this fucking culture where I called someone dumb they got freaked out about that. So it's all my son explained to me he was bullied

because he was talking to a kid and the kid put his fingers in his own ears. Like literally like if you were talking and I just put my fingers in his own ears. Like literally like if you were talking and I just put my fingers in my ears and didn't want to hear you talk, he considered that bullying. So, we're indoctrinating them into pussy university and they're all just fucking soft and weak. And all the parents are soft and weak.

And they're all outraged over nothing. I don't know, I told you they had a walk for fitness and they walked and They that they make it They survive it they were being cheered on by dooring parents while they walked on grass in a circle You could only imagine when you were six or seven doing that right hold dad Your dad taking the day off work to come down and fucking cheer you on. Oh boy, and then the the announcer Coach Rick kept yelling up slow down slow down. Oh boy. And then the announcer, Coach Rick, kept yelling.

Slow down. Slow down, no running, no running. Safety first. They were on a grass field run. No running, it's a walk for fitness. I have no idea what's going on. I have no idea. And I am a fucking heretic,

because I'm looking around going, I have no idea what we're doing here. What are we doing here? Well, mr. Alien from the future. Where does this play out? How does this play out? There'll be a backlash and you're already seeing it What's the biggest? What is the biggest rising sport Max of Pat? I'm looking at you. That's right Biggest rising what sport has risen the most over the last five years and ten years

That's right. Soccer. Oh, shut up, dude. MMA. No, we're trying to get people into soccer. No, that's my point. That is an interesting point though. Quiet!

It's going both directions at once. No, I'll tell you why it's going towards soccer. Because we're dying to turn our kids into pussies. We're dying and we're working at it as hard as we possibly can, but it's not really taking. Go to the fucking soccer stadiums in the United States. It's not working. It's not, look, how much soccer do you see

on a Saturday on ESPN? Have a lot more than when we were kids. Yes, but it's not, there's no pay-per-view soccer, there's no big soccer, there's no, shut up. Nobody wants soccer. We're trying to foist soccer on everyone. We've been trying for 30 years. People give more of a shit than they did

just because they've been pounding us relentlessly with soccer. Or maybe it's a lot of immigrants who love soccer. Yeah, there's that, oh no, it's all Hispanic if you go to the whatever the depot center whatever it is but listen Americans we don't give a shit about soccer kids as opposed to Hispanics listen true what I'm saying is is we've we've turned our melting pot into a fruit salad where everyone else just sort of has their own nationalistic part of the bowl.

And they speak their own language and they have their own culture. And they went, this is what we are. It's not a melting pot anymore, right? Right, this is us. It's not the America that I knew. I remember when Susan graduated from UCLA, that was the lecture the historian gave.

The melting pot is the worst, most disgusting notion foisted by rich white men on a polyglot that we need to have our own separate but equal fruit salad, as you say. Yeah. It's working out awesomely for some and for others. Start melting, baby. But anyway, politicians aren't in the... Well, it's not up to them to tell the truth or try to help the part that's not melting in. And they're not doing a very good job of it. And that's that's fine. Anyway

By the way a few weeks back I had Gavin Newsom on on the show lieutenant governor So I told you before I was explaining to him that when I drive home from this podcast, I see the illegal aliens selling the flowers in front of the mortuary. And I can show you the pile of boxes of trash that they leave behind. Go ahead and take a look there, Drew. That's the fruit guys, to be fair. No. That's flower guys. Okay. Flower guys. look there, Drew. That's the fruit guys, to be fair. No. That's flower guys, okay.

Flower guys, thank you, Drew. No, there's both fruit and flowers being sold out there, right? Anyway. No, it's flower. Go ahead. Flower guys sell their flowers on that corner and all along Forest Lawn Drive.

Right, so it's a cemetery. They do not, yes, they do not provide trash cans or any kind of receptacles or recycling anything for them because you can't aid them. These guys eat their fast food, bring their boxes that their flowers come in and do whatever, and they have nowhere to put it, so they throw it on the ground.

Thus, my drive home is just littered with garbage on the side of the side of freeway now the picture you're looking at of the garbage is months old No one cleans it up The picture you're looking at in the upper left is me driving home watching one of our finest CHP officers Pulling over a guy in a new BMW and giving him a chicken shit ticket for rolling through a stop sign At the bottom of the off ramp of the freeway Same strip where the guys are selling the flowers 80 feet down is the guy selling the flowers illegally We've decided to focus on the people that are paying taxes and not the ones that are Engaged in illegal activity and by the way who bring nothing to the tax base. There's

This is all underground. There's nobody's being taxed on this. But here's what Gavin Newsom had to say about the proud guy who's selling the flowers. I drive home, I drive home down Forest Lawn Boulevard or Forest Lawn Drive. There's illegal selling flowers. There's a big mess, a big pile. There's this whole underground culture. Everyone's selling. There's a pile of garbage, by the way. Those are all the flower boxes they use. And then I can show you a picture of the guys selling the flowers illegally. By the way, it's not going into the tax money. It's not going in the coffers of the state. They just sell illegally. And then I can show you a picture of a highway patrolman, a California highway patrolman

giving out a chicken shit ticket for rolling through a right rolling there Oh there he is now just beyond him is all the illegals doing their illegal business But what are we focusing on Gavin? We're focused on the guy who didn't come to a complete stop we should bring I have a CHP officer with me You should bring him in we could bring him in Look that poor poor guy in the corner selling something that people apparently want that those flowers people want hair no he doesn't want it the guy doesn't want

it the guy who owns the flower store a mile away who's being under competition making those flowers or you sell wine over here hey Gavin I live in California I want to build a little structure on my property cool little You sell wine over here. All right, hold on, hold on a second. Hey Gavin, I live in California. I wanna build a little structure on my property. Cool? Little competition, just kinda doing my own thing. You fucking hypocrite. Cause you're gonna come and shut me down

as fast as you fucking can. No, what he's saying is, underground black market, hard working, that's the way to go. I guess so. He was very clear about that. Well, he said, what's wrong with the little competition? Underground, illegal, untaxed, that's competition. That's competition. There you go.

Thank you, Mr. Governor. Thank you. That's awesome. So I can just go build my own shit on my own property because I'm just going to do my own thing? This is a little underground building community. Just do my own thing, man a little underground, little underground building community. Just do my own thing, man.

That guy's hardworking. By the way, he's turning the criminal into a hero. And by the way, I'm not, I don't think these guys are serial killers or anything, but one person is engaged in an illegal activity, which is they are selling something that is not being taxed, number one. Number two, a little competition. Well, the guy down the street

in Toluca Lake who has the flower shop, he has to pay all your taxes, he has to pay all your tariffs and revenues and whatever God knows special business licenses and special this and special that. I'm sure there's some EPA guy that's charging him an extra whatever for whatever waste when he cuts the fucking baby's breath off the thing and throws it in the dumpster. He can't compete with this guy because of all the regulations you piled on top of him,

but that's cool, what's wrong with a little competition? He's not paying taxes. I thought you guys liked tax money or maybe only like it from certain people is his tax dollars You say this all to him. Did you say all him? Well, I Said What?

Okay, did you keep going? Well, there's more. Yeah, I guess as well here I told you this competition so, you know, it's making those flowers or you sell wine over here We got a Mexican who makes his own wine, he's gonna stand down the street from your wine store. I admire the small business person, the entrepreneur who gets up, tries to sell a thing or two and wants to make a difference. No. He feeds their family.

He doesn't want to. At least those guys are out there working hard. He's missing that it's illegal, right? Well he heard me. Yeah. There's no permits. He's not a hardworking small businessman. Or other than maybe we're all just doing our own thing.

Like all right, I'm just going to sell mangreia. Let's get a box and sell mangreia. That be cool? Get a couple cases of mangreia. Let's do that, Mike. Let's get a couple cases of mangreia and just set up next to these guys and start selling booze. Why don't you get these guys to sell for you?

Oh, that's a better idea. See, my thing is why can't these guys be brought in to the whole system? There is no system. These guys don't want a system. They want me to pay more. That's their system. That's their plan. This is a lieutenant governor of California.

I'm talking about illegal activity here. He's vehemently defending the illegal activity and defending the CHP who's doing nothing. Did he bring the CHP guy in? Yes, I yelled at him. What'd he say? He had nothing to say. They're there for our safety. They're there for our safety. These guys just piling trash up. All right, so Drew, what am I, insane? What's going on?

Well, you're an alien from the future, so you're seeking the future. Come back to be annoyed. Honestly, for the love of Christ, really. But don't you love that those guys are out there hustling? I like that. I do, no. I love that. So isn't there a way to bring them into the system a little bit?

There would be if someone would address it as a problem. Not even as a problem. No, it as a problem. Not even as a problem. No, it's a problem. Okay, as a problem that has a solution. Let's solve this thing. Of course. Oh, they'll have solutions. Just address it as a problem and shut up with your fucking backpedaling.

It's not a problem. It is a problem. You addressed it as a problem. It's a problem. It has a solution. A solution can be proactive, meaning positive. Win-win-win for everybody. We can get some tax dollars out of this. Yes. Win-win for everybody.

We can get some tax dollars out of this. Yes. But it's not going to happen. Why? They're heroes. You're a bad person because you drive a BMW and you pay taxes. And we need you to kick in a little more. Fair share.

So that we can fix this stuff. But they never get around to fixing it. And Newsom has decided these guys are heroes. Small business. Let's go back to soccer and MMA. Soccer and MMA. All right. Because I think in that analogy is something interesting,

which I think is the fact that things are going in two directions simultaneously. To a degree. Whether it's MMA and soccer. Or hyperachievement and staying in bed. Let me. Yes. So what happens with that in the future? I'll tell you. Australian. Quiet. or hyperachievement and staying in bed. No, no, let me, yes, no, yes, yes. So what happens with that in the future?

I'll tell you. Mr. Alien. Quiet. Yes, soccer and MMA are the two biggest, football is the biggest sport, but what I'm saying is, and by the way, is there anything more violent and more aggressive and more, as I've said many times, the beauty of football

is nobody sits home, watches the Super Bowl and sees Anquan Bolden or Larry Fitzgerald and goes, I could cover that guy. No you can't. And you're sitting at home and you know it. And that's why it's pure. It's 100% pure. Larry Fitzgerald's dad doesn't own the team. He doesn't coach the team.

He's there because of his vertical leap and he's there because he's the best. And we all know it and that's why we're secretly attracted to it. Many times why we love it so much because it's the only thing that's pure. Gavin Newsom is not Lieutenant Governor of California because he's the smartest guy in the land. You know what I'm saying? So it's pure and we love it. We love that. Now soccer is being pushed on us. It's being pushed on us hard, imported and pushed hard by the pussies of this country. MMA, that's where we go when we're left alone. It doesn't get pushed on you.

You go there and you pay 55 bucks to watch it. Nobody I know would pay 55 bucks to watch Spain play Greece and soccer. But you know, I understand there's certain cultures that are into it. I understand it's bigger and other whatever. But as Americans in general, they've been pushing soccer on us for the as long as. But what about this divide that's open? All right. And the Super Bowl gets incredible ratings and the soccer long as but what about this divide that's open and the Super Bowl gets incredible ratings and the soccer gets God knows what with America we'd rather watch

Super Bowl with the lights out this thing yes this thing that is this divide this chasm is what's going to sort of implode on itself coming up oh is that what's gonna happen miss really yes we have we have way too. We have way too many People with their hand out saying, you know, don't use the s-word play soccer and what's wrong with paying for by the way Everyone who's playing soccer you should be paying for their lunch. I Cannot tell you it's turning the corner. It's turning the corner. I'll tell you why because ten years ago It's turning the corner. I'll tell you why because ten years ago

This outrage didn't exist which our age the outrage of having a guy like lieutenant governor of one of the Biggest states and one of the biggest economies in the world in the world Sit here and just fucking make excuses and tell bullshit out of the back of his ass. People still accept that stuff. Yes, but 10 years ago, if I would have called him on it, they would have come after me. Now, my Tweetosphere is like, finally, somebody is talking, somebody is stepping up, we have a voice, keep going.

Of course, you get the ones, I find comical, I get the ones that's like, they're talking about slavery, it's like, just five generations ago these people were slaves. And I just write back, so let's just wait it out, like, okay, five generations ago, they're slaves. What I'm saying is what would you like to do now, not what happened five, I recognize that. Three generations ago, my ancestors were peasants. Yeah, yeah, but.

Two generations ago, they were worked in a grocery store. Well, that's. But that was the American thing. My wife's parents weren't born in this country. No, my grandparents weren't. I know, but I'm saying my wife's parents weren't born in this country. No, my grandparents weren't. I know, but I'm saying my wife's parents, my wife is younger than you, and her parents weren't born here. I don't know what they have to do with slavery, and they didn't come here with a whole pillowcase

full of gold. But that part, we're like, it's only, Rubio is the only guy here talking about that immigrant mentality that we used to promote. Yeah. all right. You know, to help give people opportunity. The point is is you bend, you bend, you bend, and then basically you get to a breaking point. And now we're at the breaking point.

And the people, the guy in the BMW who's getting pulled over for the chicken shit ticket, who's, and by the way, that chicken shit ticket is gonna cost him 285 bucks. And if he wants to fight it, you can pay the full amount first, which by the way seems illegal to me. I don't know how court systems work, but if you're gonna fight a ticket, why do you have to pay the full amount of the fine and then fight and see if you can get it back?

That seems very undemocratic to me. I think what they do is they just cash it and then don't find, then don't issue it. Well. Because they're interested in the money anyway. If you fight it, you pay it first. Right, I just say. And then you can try to get it back. Yeah.

Meanwhile, it just sits in their bank. And then, and then by the way, someone whose bank it's in decides whether you get it back or not. No interest to you though. Look, eventually the people who are driving the BMWs, paying the taxes, getting the chicken shit tickets, and having the fingers wagged at them, telling them they need to do more, they're going to snap. And that's what's, that's what you're seeing now. People are tired of it and that's what's going to happen. It's a backlash. And it's coming. What's what you're seeing now people are tired of it, and that's what's gonna happen It's a backlash and it's coming. What's it gonna look like?

It's it's it's gonna look it's gonna look like more people speaking out when they were Formally afraid to speak out because they didn't want to be called bigoted or homophobic or every the the second you open your mouth You get called something, and then you start backpedaling, and then you lose the argument. The voices are gonna start stepping up. You know, I've discussed the fact that there's always new nomenclatures every generation.

It needs its own language so people can identify it as an action. Just like we have PC, we need the opposite of that. We need some sort of term that people understand as You know speaking out. Yeah, well that'd be just speaking out. I know it's it's so So so of you so It's so so That's so so yeah. Well, we're gonna have to call it something because...

Well you're for the future, what do they call it? Oh true, what? You know, this thing all the time where you just think I'm a fucking magic box of pearls, which is true. You declare it all the time, I'm just mining it, that's all, I'm just exploring it. Okay, let's get our minds wrapped around this. Yeah. These are people that are tired of being called, you know, rich, whitey, class warfare wagers, or, you know, homophobic, bigoted, you know, all this kind of stuff,

for basically speaking their mind, which is I am saying guy and BMW, not the problem. Guy selling the flowers, part of the problem, but can be corrected and turned into it. The problem is the guy in the BMW is white and the guy selling the flowers is Mexican, quiet, and that makes me a racist. Now, we need to come up with something other than racist

so that we can discuss this problem. And that's what you're looking for a handle a handle Yeah, I think I think the problem is lieutenant governor not the flower guy and not the BMW guy The problem is the lack of leadership. Well the the problem with The guy selling the flowers is he's just doing what he's doing. Yeah, he's hustling. That's right Yeah, the the guy, although you not say that if he was breaking into your car, because that's a junkie just doing what he's doing.

He's just hustling with a brick. But the problem is the Lieutenant Governor and the guy in the BMW, because the guy in the BMW should have been outraged in fighting the ticket and attacking the system, as I yelled at you, calling you a pussy in front of a client a few years, a few weeks back when we had a meeting with a client.

You say that to me so often, I've forgotten what the hell we were talking about, but okay. The client said, when did the people that were earning the money, when did the people that were earning the money, when did the people that were paying the taxes and taking care of the kids, when did we turn into the bad guy and how did this happen? And I pointed at Drew. I said, blame Drew.

Don't blame me. I've been saying I'm literally a millionaire, fuck all you, get to work. And that's never stopped. Never stopped. But everyone else is scared and they don't want to get labeled and The only way to correct this problem whether it's fucking Nazi Germany and it's 1938 39 And you speak words now sane people

The guy driving the BMW start speaking up fight the ticket every ticket you get just fucking fight it every red left-turn Arrow drive through it. It's all I do. Just do it clog the system fuck the system Fuck these people up because listen the Gavin Newsom's of the world. They're gonna do what they're gonna do for as long as they can do it We were advocating civil disobedience Which is it which is a philosophy. I'm saying the same thing Rosa Parks did. Yeah, that's civil disobedience. Right, exactly.

It's like we have God on our side. It's the other side of that equation for a different reason that people would argue is an interesting application of the policy, the philosophy. Listen, when the government is allowed to make reasonable requests of its citizens Once it gets passed reasonable We're allowed to resist that well this country was established. Thank you. It becomes tyranny at a certain point Yeah, they're allowed to ask me for a percentage of my paycheck and stop at red lights and blah blah blah But if they want me to sit there and rot in an intersection

Outside of westwood one in culver city at midnight on sunday night and look at look down Venice venice boulevard, which is the straightest law. I mean, it's literally 17 miles of straight ahead You see the earth curve and the distance and just sit there in what was a shitty neighborhood waiting for them to tell me it's okay to turn left. I'm turning left and it's their fault because they should have calibrated or timed the signals so they didn't do that on a Sunday night but they have no interest in my time. They have interest in revenues. So yes, I'm turning through that. I don't know what that makes me. Civil disobedience. All right, good, fuck them.

And I've been getting a lot of tweets on this. Everyone is doing it now. Everyone's turning through the left turn arrows. I got everyone doing it. Keep doing it. And I'm telling you, it gets easier and easier and easier. Can we find a more productive metaphor than the left turn arrow?

Is there other things we could do as a society that would make change? There's another stoplight on Forest Lawn that was put there for the studios. No, I'm not. Shush. Except for, we'll get to that, except for the studios are closed on Saturday and Sunday,

but the light is still red. The gates are closed. Physically, the gates are closed. There's closed gates, but the signal's still turning red. So I drive through that one as well and I drive through them all. Gary, how many, since you've been with me, been driving through the arrows? Oh absolutely and it's even it's only gotten worse since I moved into your neighborhood. I blow that arrow

every single day twice a day and I was behind you on the way to work one day and I saw you blow the the studio, the Warner Brothers stoplight. I've been blowing that one every single time too now. This is drive through red lights. Just look around. Look to your right, look to your left. The government fucked that one up. They're not interested. Now, again, parking meters, smartest ones on the planet, they sense when your car leaves

and goes back to zero. That involves generation of money. That's income. They get smart with that. Signals? not so smart Okay, other is there other metaphors than then blowing through traffic signals that we could do actively to move things in a positive direction Get leadership out of our lead what we're saying. We're saying something with TT TT I don't know why those initials popped up talking something

Civil The officials popped up talking something. Civil disobedience. No, I'm not saying that we need the, I'm off the nomenclature and just saying what other behaviors can we all participate in that could move things in a positive direction, productive direction. Yeah, just everyone start, everyone drive through. Red lights, red lights. No, no, no, just look.

Here's the thing. Everybody, when you, you have to live your life, I'll tell you, you do it on a micro level to try to get society back from the lawyers or whoever, the government, whoever. The warehouse you're sitting in. When Barack Obama bought me this warehouse 10 years ago, when I bought this warehouse 10 years ago, there was a guy in it, and the guy was using the warehouse for his flooring company.

And he had, I don't know, 18 months left on his lease. So I bought a warehouse that had someone who had a lease on it. Of course I wanted to use the warehouse but I couldn't kick the guy out he had a lease. So I said to the gentleman listen when when you're ready to leave if you're looking for another place and he was I'll let you ride out of that 18-month lease. You say the word, you're out because I'm anxious to move in and start working and making my shop. He said okay I'm looking for places and I'll let you know. I said okay. Six months went by and he said I found a

place and I said good for you. This will be your last month's when you move out. You know, the 30th. I said, okay, this will be your last month's rent. That'll be that. And he said, I need you to come down here and sign a piece of paper that says I'm legally being let out of my lease. And I said, I appreciate that. But I told you when I first met you, I looked in the eye and I said, you can leave any time

you want. And there'll be no repercussions and I'm anxious to get in here. And he said, yeah, but I need you to sign this piece of paper. And I said, I gave him my word and that's good enough for me and it'll be good enough for you. And he said, I need you to sign this document. And I said, well, I'll tell you what. Stay in 18 months. I'm not signing a document So your choice is you can leave at the end of the month and we'll never see each other again Or you can stay

Either way, there's no document that I'm signing. Well, guess what he left and that was ten years ago I've had it happen many times where people come here and and Shot here and then said I need you to sign a release after it's done. I said, I told you, you were permitted to come onto this property. I gave you my okay verbally and now it's fine. Well, we need you to sign the release. I said, I'm not signing the release. I said it was okay.

I said, if I don't sign the release, we can't use any of this footage footage. I said well then don't use it. And what do they do? Use it. Of course. Everyone does. That's 96%. I mean I had my stupid telepictures contract. I had my assistant Jay sign the whole thing. Told him I was taking a nap. I have I have my assistant sign 99% of the shit I do. I had my assistant use his fucking thumb in place when I had something notarized once. I didn't feel like putting my thumb in there. Fuck it. Everyone start doing that. Live your life that way. Everyone do it simultaneously. Everyone do it simultaneously. When you go, you know, when you, as I said, I pulled into a parking lot. I had a guy come out. He was a dick.

He said, $20. I said, yeah, hold on, let me park the car. I'm sitting on my wallet. $20 now. I said, let me get out of the car. I'm wearing a suit. I'm sitting on the suit tail. I'm sitting on my wallet. I'll park the car right there. I'll get out of the car. I'm wearing a suit. I'm sitting on the suit tail. I'm sitting on my wallet. I'll park the car right there. I'll get out of the car, give it the $20. He said, now, no, no parking. I said, hey, fuck you. And I turn around to go across the street

to go park at the other place. And he went, it was funny. I didn't say fuck you. I said, I'm gonna go, I said thanks. I'm gonna go park across the street and give him my $20 when I get out of my car and the guy went Okay, okay, okay fine park and I said fuck you and I drove to the other side of the street. I T-boned a bus filled with retarded kids it burst into flames and then I parked and the moral of the story no

Everyone just do that. I'm not saying be a dick, I'm not saying be rude, just start fucking putting people in their place and start dealing with things. Like adults. Like adults. And eventually society will come, it'll slowly start coming around. Seems like a taller order than,

That's true. All right Brian Jose Jose Jose All right guys 28 calling from Phoenix what's going on All right. Well, my wife had a one night stand affair in December she had a period that month and

We I got her to go to counseling and we started doing pretty good and you know, we started to get intimate ourselves and She was pregnant doctor said January 10th was her pregnant date. And now she wants to have an abortion because it was just too close for her comfort and doesn't want to end up with a surprise and break up our family. Wow. Alright, a couple things. So how did you find out about this one night stand?

Well, it was actually two separate occasions She had just started a new job and there was a guy at her new job We had got into that boring couple stage and we stopped paying attention to each other a little bit this new guy We're just I don't know if I was with you. I don't like your man Dude and she she's just a bad liar and I caught her the day of with you I treat you like your man does and all this stuff. I love those guys. Yeah. And she's just a bad liar and I caught her the day of. Wow. It's kind of a long story. Alright, I gotcha. Listen, these fucking douchebags out there, I'd treat you like, of course you would. You'd give me a, I don't

care, give me a Ferrari. That first week week that's gonna be a love affair you know week year number 11 it's gonna be the car I drive do you know what I'm saying yeah and of course that's how it works oh baby I'd treat you yeah you would treat her different if you met her in an office ten years ago Jose would ten years yeah that. That's how it goes. That's how we're wired. Chicks fall for it. All right.

I'm glad to hear about the counseling part, Jose. Right. I'm glad to hear about the part where you're keeping your family together and you're taking mature and appropriate steps. I don't know how to advise him on the abortion. Well, she had her period after she had sex with him, which doesn't mean everything. Right.

It's a good reassuring sign. It's a good indicator. Yeah, it's a good indicator. What would you say? It's 95%? Or what would you say it is? Was it a normal period? Oh, sorry.

Was it a normal period she had after the? He gives it a four and a half. Yeah. Well, wait, I gotta jump in. Okay. She said she had her period or she had her period? Because if she said she had her period and now she's pregnant and she wants an abortion, she may not have had her period.

Right. She may not have had her period right Yeah, no The New Year's Eve we went out and we were out drinking and we actually ended the night Making love and it was you know, I could I read wing status or whatever I don't know when you want to use but yeah All right All right. So she did have her okay. She did ever how many kids do you have? We have a three-year-old. All right. What's the have her. OK, she did have her. How many kids do you have? We have a three year old. All right.

What's the nationality of the guy she had sex with? The Mexican, Chicano, and what part of Scotland are you from? Actually, Nova Scotia. What? No. Jerusha freaked out by showing him with a sense of humor. He can't process it. So you're Hispanic yourself? Yes.

Small businessman selling flowers on Forest Lawn? Yes, everyone. Let me ask you this. From an ethnic standpoint, if you saw the kid, are you going to be able to tell? Maybe not. We were looking at paternity tests. Maybe that's the trick, to do that.

Philosophically, people would say, well, it's not the child's fault that it was the product of this kind of situation, right? So it's hard to defend abortion on this basis, even though I understand it. It's hard to defend it So it's real. I don't know what to tell you. All right. Well, hold on. Did you get the paternity test? Yeah, at least do that. No, can how, guys, you may not want to be adding. I'm doing the math here. 20 minutes of call. 20 minutes left in the show. Hold on.

How soon can you get a paternity test? I don't know the number off that. Look, can you guys look that up online? I mean, you have to wait until the kid is old enough to go on Mori Povich. No, they can do in utero testing, I believe. That's what I'm... Yeah. But I don't know if it's soon enough to be able to still clearly adopt the abortion hurdle.

And then it's a weird thing where you do a paternity, you know, you do a paternity test in utero. It's scary. As early as the eighth week, it says. Eighth week, so there you go. All right. And then you can get your abortion. Which now makes you a little weird.

Cause you're... Pardon me. Right to lifers or right to choose. You're kinda taking a life. Wait a minute, True. It's the mother's choice. But you are

now punishing a creature Well, wait a minute, Drew. It's the mother's choice. But you are now punishing a creature. A bystander. A bystander. And don't get me wrong, I don't care. But you now have to make an interesting decision, which is I may not believe in abortion. If this was my DNA, this thing would come to term, but it's someone else's DNA,

so now this thing's never going to college. It's kind of a weird position to put yourself in. Yeah, I mean, there's many different sort of philosophical conversations to be had. One is that from an evolutionary perspective, humans have done shit like this for a long, long time. Well, and also people have raised other people's kids and times millions.

That's right. And the real question is to what is your obligation to see a life safely into fruition? Is it send them through college? Is it just get them full term and give them up for adoption? Well, the- Or is it none of that? The problem too is if this person is a living reminder of this affair

I understand it's a tall order for them interpersonal. I am going to say What is their obligation? I hear so well. I will say I'll break. I'll break this off into pieces. I will say Let's get a paternity test for sure eight weeks in yep and then they're already there okay then let's take that information and let's sit down with people that we think are wise and really discuss this yeah okay so call back all right Drew long childhood drama Bryce out of the way I just want to take a little breather here Bryce and breather. What's going on?

Good 19 for Michigan question yeah, I just wanted to get your take on celebrity apprentice I mean when you're on there you didn't really seem to be the The screwball you are today and this seemed very calm and then seemed like you gave up Okay, well, what do you need to know from me then well I mean how was it staged at all or why did you kind of put yourself in a chopping block well you have to understand and if you have to understand strategically if I told you you're playing this game dig drew dig you're playing this game, dig, Drew, dig. You're playing this game with a bunch of other people

and you want those people to respect you and feel indebted to you and so on and so forth, right? And you basically said, look, we're gonna go in there and we're gonna play one hand of blackjack against the other team. Now, if we lose, I'm gonna take you, you and you and you're gonna play one hand of blackjack against the other team. Now, if we lose, I'm gonna take you, you, and you, and you're gonna come back to me and we're gonna see who's gonna get fired from this casino.

But what if you look down and you had an ace showing? And you went, well, I know I'm, I don't know I'm gonna win, but I feel really confident that I'm gonna win this. Well, then it would be strategically advantageous to you to say, hey everybody, I'm gonna take the bullet. Because you've seen, you don't think you're gonna get the bullet.

So now, your whole tribe is going, well there's a stand up guy. There's a stand up guy. I'm not gonna haul him in there next time. You bought yourself a lot of goodwill because you were the dude who stood up and said, I'm not bringing haul him in there next time. You bought yourself a lot of goodwill because you were the dude who stood up and said, I'm not bringing any of you back and I'm not changing my mind.

That's where I stand. So that strategically would be pretty good because it'd be a long time before somebody brought you back into the boardroom. So part of it is that, it's a strategic, look, it's doubling down. It's when you split aces, when you play 21, you get two aces, you split them. You don't know you're getting two kings. You may get a king and a three, but the way the game is

played, split them. And I kicked ass so royally on what they'd asked us to do that I was wildly confident that we won, and so was everyone else. I didn't know that the game was misrepresented to me. It was explained to me. Their producer, Off Air, told us to do it differently than what they would have liked, which was a big fat mistake on his part, and that I would be punished because Michael Andretti

didn't step up and take the challenge and blah, blah, blah. So that's what happened to me. Yes, they fucked up and they edited around it, but their off-air producer gave me marching orders that then got me eliminated. Yeah. I've heard they play games like that.

Well, I don't think he meant it, but it was, it was perfect. It's exactly what you want, Drew, which is, literally, we're doing a presentation. We're launching a new Buick piece of shit. And they go, okay. And then the guy's giving you the briefing with no cameras rolling. And he says, do it like a Steve Jobs presentation.

And you go, Steve Jobs? Yeah, Steve Jobs. Do it like, think of a Steve Jobs presentation. Then I go back to the war room as the leader and the car expert, and I say, all right, we're all gonna go up on stage and we're gonna do a group encounter group for guys who won't buy American cars. They only buy European cars, but how do we're going to do a group encounter group for guys who won't buy

American cars they only buy European cars but how do we get them to buy and then Penn Jillette goes didn't you hear what the guy said Steve Jobs presentation that's you on stage with it with a presenting with this right with the microphone and I said yeah yeah yeah but what if we all did a sketch or skit or something where we all got up sketch or skit or something where we all got up on stage? And he said, the guy said Steve Jobs. And then I saw the guy later on, the producer, when we test drove the car and I said, hey,

I wasn't listening really clear, but Penn is on this thing because he's smart. You think we should do this? This should be done as a Steve Jobs type presentation? He said, absolutely. I said, all right. Went back and I said, all right, I'm gonna be Steve Jobs. I'm gonna be on stage. I'll bring Michael Andretti up on stage because I know they'll kill me if I don't bring the professional driver up on stage. And I'll have you guys in the audience asking me questions. And then, you know, Penn Jillette's gonna go, I'm a big man. I can't fit in this car.

And I'm gonna go, yes you can. Then in this car, and I'm gonna Yes, you can right? Then at the end the criticism was is I didn't involve enough of my teammates Right because and then they edited it in such a way where like Penn Gillette was like going I told him yeah Yeah, it made me seem like the guy went hey. I'll handle this. Yeah, I'll do it all perfect Trump asked me who I should fire. I said fire the producer, told him I'd do the Steve Jobs presentation, because that's exactly what I did.

What'd he say when you said that? Well, they edit that part out. But what'd he say though in real life? He just stood there. He doesn't know what's going on. So that's the truth. So I was misled by a producer who should have frankly kept his fucking mouth shut.

He should have kept repeating that so they couldn't get it. They couldn't edit around you. That's nothing. you can't. That's the truth. Did you get asked to do the All Star thing? No. Yeah. I think I talked a little bit too much about what went on

and look, I'm not bitter, I wanted to go home anyway, I'm fine, just saying don't edit it and make me look like an asswipe. We actually had an edited version that they made the mistake of sending me where they cooked it. They were asking me, sorry, Gary, but Gary's a... I'm bitter. Gary's bitter.

Fuck them. They made it seem like I did this and I did that, I didn't do... But I've talked to a number of people flying off that show with the same feeling, same note. Same note, that they were told they were manipulated by a producer, then edited a certain way. And when you hear that on a reality show, you just go, yeah, yeah, sure, sure, sure.

But that's what they do. I thought they were above this. But the game type shows, nah, the game shows, they kind of have to do that. Because they know who they want to move forward, they know who they want to win, they know who they want at the end. Well, sure, yeah.

Arsenio won, Arsenio has a talk show on, and guess who's producing Arsenio's talk show? Oh. Donald Trump. Ah. I like Arsenio, but Clay raised almost twice as much money for the final challenge fundraiser. Raised, doubled Arsenio's.

And the show was a little better. doubled Arsenio's, and the show was a little better. But Arsenio still won. Isn't that interesting. Well, no one said these shows have to be truthful. No, they don't. Just so long as you guys understand how things work. All right, and yeah, and they also sent me,

they made me a mistake of sending me a tape that had Ivanka Trump, like they put words in her mouth. They edited it. Like her saying something scripted. I can't remember what it was. There was dubbing of her talking when she hadn't been. Right, during the boardroom.

Yeah. Well, of course. Yeah. The surprise is you guys. No, but this one crossed the line a little bit because it was literally creating a line, painting a picture that didn't happen in the room. Listen, that happens all the time, really. I understand it.

All the time. I just thought the Mark Burnett stuff was a little higher. A little above that. Listen, I've had to wrangle people away from the patients, let me rehab, to make sure that anybody could get near them. Hey Brian, Bryson? Bryson, no, no, no. That answer your question?

Yeah, I appreciate it, thanks for taking my call. All right. Thank you. All right, let's talk to. Meadow, Idaho. Meadow! Hello. Hi there. I like you, Meadow.

What? Sorry, I didn't hear you. He likes the cut of your jib. I like you, Meadow. Hi. What? Sorry, I didn't hear you. He likes the cut of your jib. I like you. Oh, well thank you. I appreciate you guys very much. First of all, I'm really nervous, but since I've been waiting for two hours, my nerves have kind of gone down.

So, my sister, she was on drugs probably about 10 years ago, um... my sister she was uh... she was on drugs probably probably about ten years ago and she got clean around seven years ago uh... she still like to still drink and smoke pot and that sort of thing. So let's tell the story properly. She never got clean

okay she stopped doing backwards. I guess we thought But we thought it was fine. Let's tell the story properly. She never got clean, okay, she stopped doing bad things. I guess we thought that she, we thought it was okay because she wasn't doing meth. No, it's never, no. We thought like one evil. Arararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararar wah wah wah. I see it on TV shows all the time too. Just stop. Nobody can be heard. I mean like with like my show on HLN, that's because there's a satellite fucking delay that drives me insane, makes it look like I'm interrupting everybody all the time. Meadow, shut up. Go ahead Drew.

Meadow, if she's using a substance she is not sober. And she, it will progress again, she will go back and she will die. That's the nature of this disease. If she's using a substance, she is not sober. And it will progress again, she will go back, and she will die. That's the nature of this disease. If somebody's not daily engaged in recovery, they are in trouble. If they're daily using, they're in serious trouble. So, what's happening now?

Well, I just found out today that she's doing meth again. Of course. And I just don't know where we're supposed to go. Well, you need to go to Al-Anon. You've been doing nothing so far. So you need to go to Al-Anon, everybody. Al-Anon sponsors for each and every one of you, regular meetings, that's what you do.

If you do not do that, and this is an order, if you don't do that, you are contributing to her demise actively. Do you understand me? All right, Meadow. I don't know why people. It's Alana. Hang on a second.

When I say that, people hear, well, lessen the fat in your diet, maybe exercise a little more. I'm not saying that. I'm saying, take this medication or your sister will die. That's what I'm saying. No, I completely understand. All right. Is she your older sister?

Yeah, she's seven years older. OK. And first off, Meadow, as much as you can, let's not have this ruin your life. Well that's the Al-Anon. That's the whole idea. So take care of yourself. Let's go to Al-Anon. Let's take care of yourself.

You're a good person. And let's get your sister some help. And part of that help is you getting involved in this. And then she needs treatment. She needs long-term treatment. She's been using for decades. She needs long-term intensive treatment. There's a place outside of Portland. You're in Idaho, a place called Springbrook, it's excellent.

That's where I like people to go. She can get sober anywhere though, just to get her in a sober living, get her instruction environment. She's got to get with the program. Thanks Meadow. All right, take care. Take care. So sorry about all this. It's heartbreaking. All right. Again, if you'd like to donate, keep the pirate ship afloat by clicking through the PayPal donate button,
