Welcome back to the basement. Yeah, I can't say what you just said say what you just said. I said I forgot
This episode Frank is leaning over to turn the camera on he goes I
Forgot about something that made me horny as a kid
So I you know
You know I collect toys and I recently you know gone down the rabbit hole of you know
some old Power Rangers stuff that I used to watch and or collect and I remember there was an episode that I
Remember now as an adult like yo, I got horny watching this what happened in it the Power Rangers
Faced off against an enemy that was like a big caricature of like Italian pizza makers and
He would he would throw pizza this was empowering just turbo. It was the third
He would throw pizzas. It was the third season. I think mm-hmm and
He would throw pizzas that were like bombs or they would like take care like control of people's minds
And he baked the Power Rangers into a pizza and I remember I was like I remember seeing the Power Rangers like engulfed in this pizza
And it did it for me. I don't know why I don't I don't know why
And they got rescued by another power blue centurion was his name
But I remember seeing that and being like yo, this is kind of this is kind of nice
It was like I don't know I don't know how to explain it
So
Hypothetically if I baked a Power Ranger action figure into a pizza your dick would not move
It would not I don't it would not. Yeah, something would happen. I'm not saying what would happen. I'm not saying what wouldn't happen, right? But it was a
Something happened for sure. You know, I was discovering myself a little bit
Okay
You're gonna tell me that there were never things that wouldn't otherwise as an adult have made you horny that you remember from it
Like being a kid that like you look back and like holy shit. That was weird. Yeah, just like pressure any sort of pressure
You just someone just push up against your groin. You ever like when you're young you just kind of like push on your dick like this
and it kind of felt nice
The battle between man and penis was yeah, it was nice. So yeah, I guess that was a different battle ground
By the way, I just want to like I know I commented on it on the patreon
But you're still wearing that thing a headband and you're now you're wearing a jean jacket
And you just look like a woman who's wants to fight over a parking space. Well, I'm not gonna say I'm not
Also, is that like a black eyed piece shirt or something? First of all, if you ever thought I'd wear a fucking black eyed piece
Doesn't that look like the music video? It might it might look like a music video for a black eyed piece
But no, hold on. Can we just talk about black eyed piece for a second? I don't go ahead. Yeah
I don't want anyone to forget that they made a song
That was on the radio and it was a hit and it was called. Let's get retarded. Yes
So, yeah, I just want to say that and also I just want to say this and like
I know it's offensive, but come on. This is hilarious
The song started with furky
Just just going
And then the song started. Oh my god really bad
You know for that a black eyed piece. Yeah, I mean looking back on it, you know, not as they change that real quick
Let's get it started now. I saw a commercial the other day that I forgot existed
That we I told you we'll do something, but I'll give you a fucking little glimpse
It was these two girls out at like a fucking like
They're like buying shirts or something and they're like the girl puts on a shirt and she's like, oh my the other girl goes
Oh my god, that's gay
What I swear this was on tv. It was a commercial
It was a commercial which hey, don't fucking that was the message of the commercial and then hillary deathlocks
I was like, hey guys, I'm hillary death
Don't say that that's offensive and the girls are like what it was just like I forgot the shit existed
That was a real thing. Yeah, and I was like I was like first of all good messaging. Don't do that, you know, but
But the fact that it was on tv these people just be like, yo, that's gay
Also, like if you're trying to prevent something to put it out there on tv, don't put it on tv
Yeah, absolutely
I'm trying to think. Ah the good ol early
Outs, what is what do we call that the odds the early 2000s? I guess
2000s the odds
Everything it was a wild west in terms of how you spoke to people. Yeah, I guess so I remember I as an insult I called
someone Tupperware
Excuse me. I called
I apologized since and continue to apologize for there was a a girl that we knew that was a larger stature
And I called her Tupperware as like an eight-year-old because because in my head I thought
This was the most clever insult because she holds a lot of food. Yes
I thought it was a good insult
Did she just look back and even go she was that fucking suck. No, she should have though that would have crumbled my whole life
But no, she told her parents. Oh nice. They got involved with my parents and it was a big ordeal. Yeah
Nice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So your mom probably fucking thrashed you. You know, um
Verbally, probably. Yeah, my mom wasn't a big hitter. No, she was a big screamer though
Big ol screamer from like a different room not even looking at you
Dude, I mean to this day my mom can let it just just let it go. She'll let it rip. You know, she's uh, she's yelled at me
For no reason. Has she yelled at you for sherds. I know I remember the first time she yelled at kief
Yeah, I remember the first time she yelled at Keith was on new years. Oh that I remember we would always have people over on new years
and
You know people would bring like fucking food and stuff and Keith walked over and in Keith fashion
He picked up a piece of salami with two hands looked at it and then put it down and did it like
Two or three more times a piece of salami. Yeah, and my mom was like Keith
Don't do that. Yeah, and and I I'm sure it you know at the time startled him but
My mom. Yeah, you might just scream me for like dumb shit. I don't remember. Oh, welcome to the club
Yeah, yeah, welcome to the club. What's the like most aggressive like scream that has ever been like thrust upon you
The way you just said that what I was like a scream that has been thrusted on like what's a scream?
You really remember like wow screamed at me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah
I can't really remember honestly like my mom did a fair amount of screaming back in my day
Your mom does have some bass. Yeah, don't let her fool you. She's got a she's a baritone
Put it like that ladies that bitch could sneeze too. She she sneezes you can hear from next door first of all
You just called your mom a bitch. Yeah, that's wild. Yeah, please don't tell her I said that
No, but she sneezes and it's like

Speaking of pineapple though, joey. I have a list of things that uh
Speaking of pineapple. Yeah, we got a pineapple. Did you just pave it off of pineapple? Damn fucking right. I did baby

We're almost at 85
We're at 83 as of as of recording right at 83 if we get to 85 joey now you're doing a power hour episode
Uh first part of your trip to get your enemas on there. Yeah, that was embarrassing. Yeah, that was just embarrassing
You know speaking of blowing butts out uh part two will be up soon. I assume. Yes
Are you excited? No, I'm actually a little worried. You're worried to get your butt blown out not
Not worried about it getting blown out. I'm just worried about I'm not worried as much as I am like
Here's what I'm thinking. Yeah, I'm going to set up my phone
In my bathroom and I'm going to be face down ass up
And then I'm gonna have the camera on my face
And obviously I'm not gonna show my ass. Why not? Why do it in the bathroom? There's not a lot of space in there
Just do it in your living room
Because what if there's leakage? I mean if you're laying down
You'll be fine. It's when you roll over or stand up. That's when you got a problem. Well, I don't want to have any
I'm doing it in the bathroom. You just got to run. Yeah, I'm not doing that. Okay
And then I'm just thinking about how weird that's going to be and I have to come to grips with that
It's it's uh a weird feeling knowing that you're you're getting cream pied
Um, but you you know, you just you figure it out. What was the last time you had something up your butt?
That wasn't already in well. Yeah, like something placed in your butt. Uh, I don't I don't think I don't know
I don't know if I ever you've never gotten like you've never gone and they've done like a colorectal exam or something
Oh, so this is the first time anything is going in your butt. I
That you share
I mean, I
No, I've never been like blasted or fingered or anything, but I I think maybe I why did you start with blast?
Because I figured that's where you were going. Oh
Um, but I feel like I feel like I've probably like wiped my ass too hard and I accidentally slipped. I fell him
You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's like quick saying back there. So sometimes you fall in
Um, but yeah, no, I've never like yo, we're in word. What's up? Like it's never been like that. Yeah
Well, okay, but so that'll be my first introduction to the you know, but whole play you might come out of change man after this
I'm breaking my hymen essentially. You're literally breaking your hymen. I think there's a protective layer over your asshole
I wonder if it's going to be dope if it's going to be if there's if it's going to be whack
But there's going to be an undertone of like that was kind of cool though
You know what guys stay tuned go check out patreon.com slash the base of New York to get the uh first and second
Parts of joey's end of a trip. He might come out just a butt play boy. You might just be all about it
I might just be spraying that hole all day
Not all day. Yeah, well, you also get every weekly episode a week in advance get uh, you know
Access to the jokes and stuff before people do and then an extra episode every friday exclusive content every single friday
What was this pineapple pivot you were doing? Well, so no
So I haven't listed things that like people debate all the time and as we do since we're the smartest people we know
Right, we're gonna end the debate. We're the smartest people in this room
Yes, we are. Yeah, absolutely. Uh, that's for sure. Who's smarter me or you three two one me
Well, we're both right technically. We said me best friends. Um, what did you say best friends? Wow
But I haven't listed things that we're just gonna fucking like final like cool
This is people are gonna cite this in their papers hammering the coffin just
Well hammering the nail into the coffin the nail nail in the coffin. Yeah
Wait a hammers one you hammer hammer hammer the nail into the coffin. Well, you don't need to hammer it
You can use it. Well, you can't put a nail in the coffin unless you hammer it. You can do a nail gun
That's true. But you can also put a hammer in a coffin. You never know what people want to get buried with
That's true. It could be a construction guy three items you have right now. You want to get buried with three two one go
Uh hammer cheeseburger and probably like some socks
You're pretty you're a pretty interesting guy. I don't know. I don't know what any of that says about me
All right, number one good final. This is it pineapple and pizza never had it
I'm not a big pineapple girl. Are you a big cooked fruit boy?
um
Not really honestly, I kind of like it fresh and like wet
Okay, I like I like fresh wet fruit. Oh, yeah, that was more. There you go. Not that dry shit
Take notes. Yeah, no, um
But pineapple and pizzas that's something that yet you could jive with I I don't really like pineapple
Because it's like it it makes my tongue feel like weird
I it like stings kind of you're very allergic to like acidic fruit
I'm not allergic to it. It's just and it's it is very acidic. So it makes my tongue feel weird
Yeah, fair enough. Uh, I once bit through a pineapple's outer shell couldn't it couldn't talk for like well for like a day and a half
It sucked
Why because it was so acidic it fucked my mouth up. Oh, yeah
So pineapple and pizza. Where are you going? Fuck that. It's track. I know the
I hate to be on the internet side because I know they're all like, oh, it's like the classic question
Yeah, ask everyone. It's like you pineapple pizza. It's like, you know, whatever
Uh, but I just I just don't like pineapple like that. So
No, I mean I like pineapple
But I also don't like cooked fruit and I feel like on pizza. You don't want to be overly sweet
I feel like I'm gonna bite into you
Yeah, you know like one of those usually you could put like anything on a pizza and it's gonna be fucking good
But for this what anything?
Well, not if you're gonna like no, I mean like ketchup
Oh, no, well, I'm talking about like foods
Ketchup's not a food as a condiment ketchup is a food. No, it's not the way you eat it
No, it's not. You know, it is a food that a ketchup's made out of 10 mates. Yeah, it's already on there. Well, there you go
Psychopath. All right. I'm saying for sure
No fucking pineapple on pizza. It's done. No pineapple on pizza. Okay. All right. The next one I have joey
Pineapple's like the 10th best fruit
Maybe. All right. Give me your top 10
I can't. Okay. Number two
mustard
Now listen, I know a lot of people like mustard. I know you hate it. I fucking hate it right
I will give people this though. What about honey mustard?
Sex also Dijon. I don't never had it. I don't know the difference. I mean either
I this is what I will say
I think if we're gonna get rid of a mustard just get rid of that yellow mustard
The one that looks like it comes in a fucking like fish or price bottle
It literally looks like paint
Why do we need it? Yeah, there are people that are like, oh, it's like legit like good like Dijon
Fucking nice mustard is good
Fuck it
Fuck it. I'm I like I I don't I don't like mustard like that
Like I would never get like a hot dog and just put mustard on and eat it but I
Do think that mustard serves a purpose in a sandwich when it's like hidden in like some ham and some salami
Are you ready for this? You legit a mustard tastes like throw up
No, why not?
I how do I debate that exactly you don't because it's true
No, I mean, I don't think it tastes like throw up. It tastes like fucking throw up
My throw up usually tastes like old soup
And it actually looks like old soup now that I think about it
It's fucking gross. Yeah, or like marinara sauce sometimes
That actually sounds kind of delicious, but like without it being cool. Oh so bad marinara uncool marinara sauce. That sounds about right
Uh, I I mean I stand with mustard
Mustard stays dude. Mustard is very necessary yellow mustard though. I can agree. It looks like paint. We can throw that out
Let's all right. Let's all right. Let's agree on that. Let's agree on that
Mustard that comes in a jar
nice
Mustard that comes in that fucking not I can't see into the bottle
And it's plastic and it looks like we're painting with this if it's brighter than the sun don't put it in your fucking body
Yeah, you know, yeah
That's a good rule. All right, so we'll agree. We'll keep we'll keep we'll get rid of the bottled mustard keep the jarred mustard. Yeah
That was awesome. All right next
How many do you have I got a couple nice
Tipping on a takeout order you go to you go you call up wait what you call up. Hey
Uh
Restaurant I want food. Okay. That's gonna be 30 dollars
Um, I'll be I'm gonna pick it up
Um, do you leave a tip dude? Fuck. No, that's what I'm saying. I don't why do people do that?
Yeah, there's a line on the thing that says tip
And I'm sure people tip I listen. I get it like the restaurant tours are fucking hurting as a result of the pandemic
Okay. Yeah, let's think about this like like a 2018 restaurant here. Yes
pre
pre 2020 right
They're not doing a lot of work besides the normal work to cook the food
You're doing more of the work. I will make Jesus. I'll say this
I've never tipped like that unless I've been put under the pressure
Like ever dude. I've tipped. I'm talking about like picking up an order
Oh, okay
I've never like tipped on a pickup order in my life unless I think there's one time like I walked in
and like, you know when they
When they have like the the iPad and they like swing it around and it's like oh, yeah
And it's like tip and like I know that they just saw that they gave me the tip
So it's like
Either I hit fucking no and turn it around and go no
Oh
Or I tip so those times I'll tip because I'm like I'm getting judged here
Other times I usually don't because who am I who am I tipping if I am I tipping the chef?
That's the thing that I don't that I question is like because when you tip at a restaurant
You tip the waitress who's like serving you and doing this later, but you picking up my am I tipping who am I tipping?
That's a good question. I don't know who the tip is being distributed
I asked this question the other day brought miles for a haircut and I didn't have cash on me
So I tipped electronically and I asked the guy straight up
I was like will this tip get to you or to everyone and he goes no it'll get to me and I'm like that's what I like
But I'm not well. I'm doing the work there if I'm going to pick up the food and bring it home and then eating it
Like you're doing less work than you would be if you brought it to a table and plated it
Like you're just throwing this in the styrofoam or a metal or aluminum foil tin
Yeah, I don't like this the only one who did work was the chef and if I'm not tipping the chef
Which I no one ever tips the chef because it goes to the waitress, right?
So like
Why am I tipping yeah, I'm tipping you for picking up the phone
He didn't even cook this thing. I don't like it and the other thing is like again
As joey said don't like like I know when people turn that thing to me and it's like do you want to you know
Sign there and it says in big bold letters like 50 25 80 percent
It's like give us all your fucking money, bitch
I know that they did the math and I know that so whatever I like do that
I sign it and quickly press everything to like finish
I like finish the whole fucking order and then turn it back around so they can't like see what I did
You know, it's a funny thing. I've told this story before
But it's like fits real well with this kind of thing
I went to home goods one time good place a great place and I bought a couple items
And then the woman
And there was a line and there was only one register open which was fine
But there was a lot of people there and this is pre-pandemic. So there's no social distancing pre-panda. They're right here pre-panda
and
I I she rings me up and she goes would you like to donate to
Some charity and I was like no
And uh, I I don't know why I said no because like a part of me wanted to I know like and I was just like no
It was like a gut reaction to be like no and she's like, okay, and then it was like fine
But then later I went to go get dog food for Charlie
And I get there and it's like do you want to donate to dogs that are home? I was like, yeah
Dogs that are homeless. Did you fucking go and give them money on the street like they're dancing with a hat out?
The fuck is that? No, I get a pound or something. I know I know um, but yeah
So I I for whatever reason I just like have this gut reaction
I think growing up in New York City you have a gut reaction
Just like I don't know because fucking I hate to admit that but it's like the homeless people like sometimes
You just say no to a lot of people and they're just like I any time I've been with Becca and we've seen you know like a panhandler
Someone asking for money. She's always it's like heartbreaking for her. It is suck and it does suck it does but like we again
Exactly we're desensitized to it because there were times where I was fucking sleeping on the train
And someone almost did a roundhouse kick and then asked for you know money
You know
And also you don't know like might the one thing that my dad always told me that made sense was
Give them food like give them something they can actually like yes
Can they use money? Sure, but you don't under like you don't know that person
You don't know unfortunately and there might be a cynical way to look at it
But like you don't know what that money is going to be used for you might be in a way enabling whatever fucking
Situation they might be in right, you know like
Give them food, you know give them clothing some people. I know like Becca's mom
She buys like socks and fucking shit and like distributes that when she can that's a that's a good point
But I also don't do that the only
Tipping uh or like the like when it's like donate the charity
I will do is when they're like do you want me to round up to the nearest dollar?
Because then I feel like I'm like that's an a convenient way
Or it's like do you want to donate 80 cents to kids? You're like no
It's like Jesus dude. It's 80 cents
I say without all right. So tipping for a pickup order
No, I I don't do that mainly because I don't know where the tip is going if I knew that it was going to the chef
I I would be more inclined to like do that. Hmm, but
Yeah, so no, don't do it. Everyone out there. Don't do it. I'm not saying don't do it. I'm saying it. All right. I'm kidding
Okay
Joey this one is tough
okay
being chivalrous
Should I be chivalrous now? What do you mean by chivalrous chivalry? I know chivalry
Yeah, but what example it's like opening up a door for opening a door for someone
You know what? I've never done in my entire life opened a car door for a woman that wasn't 108
It makes I've done it like once or twice too much to go into it. It's a lot. It's a bit of a thing
all I'm gonna say is you expect me to park the car and sprint
Before you open the door to the other side of the car to get you out
You gotta bend you gotta make two rides. That's a lot of like that's a lot of work
You gotta be a track star and there are certain like listen. I'll hold a door open for people
Of course
But like if I hold the door open for someone and they walk in is the expectation and there's another set of doors
That I need to slam this door and sprint to that other door. Right. It doesn't make sense
Also, you know being from new york sometimes you use a very busy building
So you get in there you hold a door for someone all of a sudden you work there when I'm holding the door for point 50 people
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know like I understand like an old woman. Yeah, sure your second in line
Yeah, get in there you old bitch, but a dude
But a regular guy just going to work like you you're just gonna walk by me dude take over my shift
That's your job. Don't take it. Yeah, exactly. Don't take advantage of the shovel risk action
If I'm a grown me I'm fucking 28 year old man
I see another younger, you know, man holding a door open for a woman
Whether or anyone I'll be like, you know what I got it from here coach
Put your hand up on the door. I got it. Go ahead. You go you you you relieve him of this shift
You were you're supposed to be the reliever in that situation, you know, call to the bullpen, you know, yeah. Hey, hey
Get in there. I don't know why I did this. Yeah, I don't know. What do you do like professor x
No, yeah, I mean that's I totally agree. Here's my issue with being shovel risk is I believe it is the right thing to do
But at what point is offering to be shovel risk disrespectful to that person?
For instance, have you ever had this happen?
Or you've seen or heard of this happening where it's like someone is like carrying bags or something and you're like
Do you say do you need help or may I help or can I help?
Like what are you saying that situation because then you're like the person will be like, fuck you. I don't need your help
Well, I you need some help
You need but who says I need help what makes you think that me as a woman needs help
You look like you're struggling you fucking asshole
That's what I would out that's what I would do. I can't say that to ya. Yeah. I know. Well, no, I know a woman
I would say lady come on. You'd berate her. Let her know you're frail. You're dumb. You're gonna die soon
Let me the list goes on lady. Do you need me to keep giving you reasons?
Let me take the bag except for tonight
It's it's different the fucking because I want to be more shovel risk, but I also don't want to be disrespectful
I'll tell you a situation that was like super weird for me when I was younger
Like I would be taking the bus to school every morning and when I was in high school
And when the bus gets packed
The only places that you can sit are like in the front
Of the bus and those seats are like reserved for the elderly or whatever
But everyone on this bus is from my high school. Oh, not a
Public transportation not a cheese bus. Yeah, no, no, no, it's like public transportation. So you're on a public bus and
When you sit in the front, literally it's like people are like leaning on you. That's how many people are in there
but then some people get on the bus and
If there if it's a woman in like her fifties
Is is that old enough for me to be like, hey, you want to sit down because you're looking a little
Season, you're looking like your knees need a little help lady
Too much time in the oven then too much time in the oven lady. You look well done. Do you need a seat?
So like i'm afraid to be like if I ask her if she needs to take a seat
Because obviously old people like visually old people. You're like, oh, how's it please? Please come on. Come on
I'm gonna I'm gonna stand, you know like
But like someone in their fifties or something or like, you know, like a like a late 40s
But like also like a pretty good shape. You're like
If it if the if the if the gray ratio if there's an obvious but people die people die
But i'm saying like either hair if you have the strength to dye your hair
You could stand up
Everyone could stand if you if you have if you're going to take the bus
You got to be a maniac. Yeah, who's like ready for war. Yeah, by the way
Those like if you're over the age of 70 just don't get on the bus dude. Just stay home
Just don't leave because now you gotta go. It's a death trap in there
Yeah, it really is if you might as well put people on roller skates in there because that thing moves
You're going with the whole fucking gravity. It's also a urinal. So there's that. Yeah, it's a little stinky in there
Stinky. Yeah, um, but yeah, I I'm being chivalrous. So like here's a couple things. I've never done in my life, right?
And I like to think that I'm like like
You're a nice guy. Yeah, like I courteous dates
I'm picking up the tab. You know what I'm saying? I'll I'll pay it. That might be another reason. Well
I'll pick up the tab none of this splitting shit this and that blah blah blah
I'll I'll you know text me text me when you get home or you know, whatever these kinds of things
Um, but I and also when I was younger
I was told that like when you're dropping off somebody you wait for them to get in the house before you leave
Yes, yeah, I still do that
Things I don't do
Open up a car door that I'm in
Like I if I'm in the car. I'm in the car. It doesn't make sense guys. I've never exited to get back in logically
It doesn't make sense. It it's a nice gesture. Maybe but it's I don't know to me that would feel like I
It would be looked at like as cliche and like super corny like you're trying too hard. Yeah, like come on. Yeah, like all right
Yeah, take it easy to happy
I was just like an old name. I was thinking Nathaniel Hawthorne. That's a great name. Yeah, that's a great name. Um, I've never uh
Pulled out a chair. I've done that. I think that's dumb. I
Because hear me out pulling out a chair for a woman
Stupid
I'll tell you why you pull out a chair
They sit on the chair. You need to go back in they have to now scooch in
Yeah, like and I can't scooch you you were a person sitting in a chair
What do you expect on the scooch? There's no scooch assistance available
That to me just seems like one that like I never like I can get with the door thing. I could get that chair
I've pulled chairs out. I've pulled chairs out because I do the only thing though is like, you know me
I'm a pranky boy. If I'm pulling a chair out one out of a thousand times. I'm I'm pulling it. Yeah, and you're going
You're going down. So listen if you're gonna accept the gesture in which I am going to bestow upon you
Just be prepared except that I also I'm gonna fucking ruin your life once one time one time that tailbone is gonna get bruised
Oh, that coccyx is going bye-bye
That's the bone. Um, but yeah, yeah, I've never done that like I've never pulled out a chair
I hate when like I've done that waiters do it at a restaurant sometimes
Like if you're at a nice restaurant, they pull your chair out for you and I'm like now I'm all the way out here
I think the gesture is in just like presenting the seat which makes no sense
I would be like I knew the seat was there. Yeah, don't show it to me and then tell me like you want it
There you go. I'm like I know I I'm gonna have it
I'm more interested in a turn in a chair turn
I can get with a chair turn like if a chair's tucked in and then you kind of turn it out
Because then I could just get in and I turn it up in but then you
Pull out a chair and I sit in it and I'm here
I got it
You gotta bounce your way up. It's stupid. It is a little dumb. So that one I don't do either
I will I will look good. What else don't I what's another chevelerous act?
Uh walking an old woman across the street. I wish you've never done that. Well, I've I don't really frequent
Well, like in your younger days, you never were walking home. So an old woman and we're like, yeah, let me give you a hand
No, I've done that once but here's guess what doesn't speed anything up. Did you
Listen, I'm unless you're gonna pick this woman up and put her on your back
I'm all about helping the elderly but this woman was walking crushed
She got about a quarter of the way the remaining
75% in which I jumped in
Just as slow
If not slower because now she was telling me how sweet of a boy I was right, right, right, you know and it's like I get it
it's a nice gesture, but like
There's nothing you can do unless you like I said throw this woman on your back and fucking sprint to the other side
Yeah
Or just grab her by her jacket one by her neck one by like right above her ass and just fucking slide her to the other side
of the street
Lay down a tarp water
Soap and just fucking let her rip. Yeah
Well, another one time I did something. Well, this isn't chivalrous
But I was driving around and a lot of people don't I'm trying to just get credit for something and I saw a trash can
You went out and picked it up
There was a cop there and the cop got on thing. It's like
Thank you or he said something like
You're a nice guy. I was like, thanks cops. Little does he know
No, I I think I've done that
There's like I've been like in my neighborhood like walking around seeing like something like blow over and I'll put it back on like a neighbor's
Like lawn or something. Yeah, I I do that a lot
Like if I if I'm driving the street and there's something like in the road like I stopped my car
I get out and also listen
This is something this this goes into chivalry as well
If you're at a store and you knock something off the rack
You picking it up depends how many things well
One thing for sure
It depends at the knock too like if I go over and I like I'm holding this
You know thing and I'm like, oh cool and I go to put it back and then it falls over
Then I'll be like that was my fault
But if I walk if I brush by something and the whole fucking thing falls, that's on you make it a little more stable
You know what I haven't done that in a while, but
If I knock over like a lot of shit
I kind of just
Oh
Get the fuck out of there, you know
Also, you know what? I'm really bad at just putting shit back in weird places
I as someone that worked retail you are the bane of my existence. I I'm sure I am I
It sucks, but I will either bring it to the front and say I don't want this or I'll put it back where I fucking got it from never
I am
Kind of like
I've put like deodorant on a stack of t-shirts before like I'm out here
That's not as bad, but like again with having my time working at target like in fucking chemicals finding
You know like two cartons of eggs people just be like I don't want these eggs, which just buy the eggs
Well, I won't do that. I'll do like items like we've we have found like packets of chicken
Like two days old because people didn't like they just dropped them off in random places
It was buying chicken at target
People buy chicken at target. You're not buying chicken at target. You know far away target is well for those that
I guess if target was next door, then maybe I would buy chicken there. There you go. But all right, so being chivalrous
I
Do it. I say do it. I say yeah, but like not the chair
I think there's we need to retire the chair retire the chair waiters waiters waiters no chair car door
Very no no doors. Yes. Mm-hmm doors. Yes
doors
Yes
One more doors
Yes
Hold the door. All right. Hold the door open. Hey you go ahead. All right my last I think this is the last one
I have also is this fucked up. I'm talking about holding doors for a second
There's a lady behind you, right?
You open the door. Yep
What's the prop what's the most proper way to do this? Is it step in a hand like that?
You walk past or is it
Open the door. How you doing you go ahead
I think the hand like that if you got strong shoulders
Go for it
But that's like there are heavy doors if you ever try to hold a door now
I look like an idiot because I'm not holding a door open for something
Like I'm going to push the door open and it like creaks open like a fucking half a foot
And I'm like come on come on sneak it
Come on Brenda. No, like I I I'm I'm the I'm the type of person where it's like, oh, you know like fucking okay
Pull the door open. Come on. Come on. Come on it. I'll take your time. You know, yeah
Come on. No, no, no, no. Don't worry. Ah, let me see some ID. I'm just kidding
Fucking that's definitely you. I
I'm definitely one of those people. Let me see some ID. Are you old enough to get in here? I'm just no
I've never done that. I know I've never done that but uh, definitely the one being like, oh, no, no, no
Take your time. Take it. I I literally have nowhere to be. Yeah. Guess what?
Everywhere. I'm in a rush. I have everywhere to be
All right. Last one. I have her a nail in the coffin
um
Washing your legs
Let me be fully clear. No, let me be fully clear first. Okay
I don't know if I'm with this
The problematic areas of my body that I worry about are above the balls
Balls enough. Yeah balls enough
Anything below it could be disgusting except for my feet
But like between balls
and ankles
Don't care. That's a petri dish of just fucking putrid piss. Yeah
Yeah, and I I don't know if I've ever washed
My like calves
Like I've watched like the upper thigh because it's right here in range right there in range. Um
I'm not doing a whole lot of bending in the shower
I
Why like why you don't need to wash that stuff unless you unless there's like a lot of like dirt
If I was like out in the mud like a pig. Yeah
Then yeah, yeah, if you're just fucking you're a piece of shit and you're just rolling around in sand all day
I've tried to wash my feet maybe twice in my life both times. I almost went no
I almost went down why because it puts soap on the bottom of my feet and I'm like
You sit down then I sit sit down sit down sit down. Do you just sit down just sit down in your bath?
Oh, yeah, that's a whole thing. First of all, you got bath. You got you got you like you have the space to sit down in there
That's not a big tub. That's not a big tub
But then you lay down and pull that left foot up toward you. What the hell
Yoga in there. Am I taking a shower?
I just got one of those things that you could put down in there
Like, you know, like fucking like sticks to the mat and like suction cups
And it's like little bristles and you just like wash your feet in there. I gotta get furniture
You want to put a tv in there too? Oh, yeah, why you want to watch the game? You're really hurting joe
I bet you're financially really hurt that tub's not big enough
It doesn't matter if it's big enough you have adequate space to wash your feet feet is the only thing I'll fucking piss on you for
Legs though legs is all good. Why am I why do I need to wash my shins you wash your back?
Yeah, how I watch what I can
Yeah, I'm not gonna buy I go here. Yeah, I go look. I'll tell you exactly what I do
here
here
Here but that's fine, baby. But
Literally that's fine. It's never seen so ever ever there is a point like I'm sure I'm sure like mushrooms are gonna start growing
In a certain part of it 100% you could eat a meal off of my shoulders
But if you even think about touching my spine you I'll go as further to say is you're
My I'll say my assholes cleaner than my legs. Let me tell you my assholes
Fucking yeah, I I polish that thing like it's a fucking trophy
Like it's an old coin that I'm restoring
Yep, yeah
You ever see those videos you ever see those videos

And they're like oh
Yeah, that's what I do to my butthole. Yeah, I got an s o s pad
And I just go to town

Bang hey
One day you'll let me read the ads. Yeah, you can if you want. I think I'll be really better than you
Really better than me. Yeah
All right
Where you going nothing. Oh, yo, you know what I wanted to talk about
Yeah
These fucking uh, I post them on my stories sometimes, uh, these like
Investing finance meme pages or something. Oh my god, dude
They're the what literally I saw one the other day, right? And the name is always like official
Warm Buffett investing and it's like what what is this?
Like what are we talking about?
That's how warm buffets getting his name out there now by fucking trying to make viral things on uh on instagram
And it's just like it just doesn't make sense. One of them literally was like, here's how you become a millionaire
or something and then it said, uh
You know don't buy material things
Don't do this don't do that like do this that and then the last one was save $8,000 a month. It's like what?
Who is this for yo save $8,000 a month. How about
Make how about let's start with make $4,000 a month. Also if you have money problems, right?
And you're looking for inspiration
on a meme page
And you think it's good advice to save $8,000 a month
Which would mean that you make more than $8,000 a month and you're like, this is good advice
You're an idiot. You're dumb. That's very dumb
I I love the people that post this in the story and they have these hands, you know like to pray. Thank god like that
So true. Oh, yeah, like you know just it's so simple. I think it's it's I mean it's it's classic fucking internet
Is people post things in order to get instant gratification and they don't think anything
Further into it
Because it's fucking too morbid and sad to believe like oh, yeah
Well, maybe there's reasons why people aren't fucking millionaires. Yeah, and like they make it sound so easy
It's like just do these things. I love it's like here's what a billion a billionaires mindset
Here it is and there's like four bullet points like this is all and one of them is just like ambition. Yeah
Thank you, dude. Yeah, it's like wake up be the hardest working person in the room go to sleep
For it. Oh, I love the ones that are like, do you know that most millionaires on average sleep four hours a day?
And it's like dude go first of all. No, they fucking don't also
What do you pull your and who are you pulling? You know like billionaire quarterly monthly?
Yeah, I think those are two different timeframes there
My least my least favorite are the ones that are like
Oh, here's here's 50 set
Who's who filed for bankruptcy?
And he's in like fucking like a bugatti with you know, like chains and stuff on and then it's like here's mark zuckerberg
Notice the difference first of all. Yeah color second
The belts they say like no not a Gucci belt inside. Yeah, it's like notice and it's like mark zuckerberg standing in front of a fucking
A Prius and it's like he's driving a Prius and I hate those it's like yo people that have fucking
There is like an undertone of what you're saying where you're like, yeah color
Like there is a there is an undertone of like racism in these things where it's like
I remember there was a meme going around like a year ago that it was like
Uh, don't just look rich act rich or like don't don't just look rich like actually be or whatever it is
And like it was a picture of quavo
And he has like diamonds in his teeth and like chains and shit. He's and he's rich dude
Like he's richest shit. He made it. He's rich made it guys and then they show like bill gates
And it's like not a Gucci belt in sight. It's like why would bill gates do that shocker
Shocker you mean that the the fucking people of color that have money and that choose to do what they want with it
Or then criticized by people from the way that they go about doing it. Not only that. Oh fucking shocker joey
Not only that but a fucking Gucci belt. Let's just even say it's a thousand dollars, which it isn't
What is that maker breaking the fucking bank here with these people who make tens of millions of dollars? Yeah, no
and listen
That's a great point because that's the one that I've seen is like
Mark Zuckerberg driving a fucking Prius in like gap shorts and people are like this is one of the richest people in the world
coincidence it was like
Shut up. First of all, it's like he would have yeah, dude. Why do you think
Mark Mark Zuckerberg is who Mark Zuckerberg is. He's a nerdy dude. Like what do you think all of a sudden?
He's gonna get like a face tattoo like what the fuck? Yeah
Like he's gonna drive a piece. Yeah, he's gonna drive a Prius
Would you be more concerned if you saw a mark Zuckerberg with a fucking grills in like a picture? You're like
It's like no good for him. He can afford that. He'd be like no what the fuck is wrong with Mark?
Yeah, no, I would be that's the one that I would be more concerned about
Why the fuck does it matter and like I love how it's people behind their phones sitting there and and trying to come up with these
Ideas and like, you know, like millionaire like successes of mentality and stuff like that
I want to know who's doing these mean pages. Like I found a couple
I like I bookmarked them so I could read these by this one
I thought was funny because it was like 12 movies for entrepreneurs. Number one Wall Street
I was just gonna say Wall Street. I've never seen it. Uh, I've seen bits and pieces. I haven't seen it in this entirety
But these can I guess other ones?
Wolf of Wall Street, that's number two. Okay. And then number three is you're not gonna guess it wait
Oh, give me a hint or you know nothing about this movie. Well, it's another leo movie. Okay. Um, uh, uh, the aviator
No
No, so it's catch me if you can so the top three that they have there two of them are about criminals
Well, uh, and arguably I mean gordon gecko is not really a nice guy in wall street
Dude catch me if you can is about a
Teenager who conned his way into millions of dollars. Oh, what about wolf of wall street? Who is about
Destroying families. You know, I went to prison. You know how people say like, oh in the show
You know like insects in the city new york is a character in the wolf of wall street
Cocaine is a character. Oh, yeah. That is a character. That is very much a character. Um, and here's another one this
This is the best too. The best thing with these mean pages is like
It'll just say like invest invest invest and then it'll just be a picture of like jason statham
It's like what does this mean? No, this is a quote that I follow on instagram
I don't know if you follow them. I follow world star hip hop
And there was a point in time where they were posting about this
Like young black entrepreneur the whole time and it was like by 22 he was bankrupt by 24
He became a millionaire read this it'll happen to you and it's like
Stop buy this from him. Stop. Stop this right now. Dude. This is great. So this one says most of your adult
Problems can be avoided if you
Regularly work out
Get a second income source
A lot of people can't have a job hard time finding a job get to
Eat real food
Whatever that means find three real friends. That's all you need. Put the work in go find friends two
You're fucking out of your life three four
Bankrupt live below your means
Do what you love for work
Easier said than done a lot this last one. Don't have kids with the wrong person. What got no shit
They're just putting the most obvious things in there like you want to have a million dollars step one have one dollar
Step two save money. It's like yeah, no fucking shit. Dude. This is great. This is a different one fastest way to go broke
New phone
how
traveling
Ready the kicker
No job
Duh the fastest way to go broke is to not have a job you fucking change your mentality. Oh my god
Some of these are so stupid. Don't not have a job
We need to have we need to have the joe sanagato fucking business tips step one
be white
No, but there there is a there is a a fucking underlying tone of
Fucking discrimination with a bunch of these because the things that they it's so funny
There's no in my opinion. It's it's it's not realistic and it's just out of touch to be like also the get a second income
It's it's also irresponsible to look at the people that have done it and be like do exactly what I did and recreate it
And you'll get there. Yeah, like that's just I think that there is something to work ethic that you can talk about
But in terms of like the method in which you like were handed the opportunity to do these things is not fucking universal
I just think it's so dumb to like
Like what and this is the same problem that I have with like gary v
Is that a lot of the stuff that he says is just
It's like he's not wrong, but he's also not saying anything that no one doesn't know
It's like, yo, if you're if you want it, you're gonna have to work around the clock for it. It's like, yeah, okay
Like be be ambitious. It's like thank you so much. That's why I love like the motivational speaker like realm
Because they are just saying everything that we know just loud and people pay to fucking hear it
Like you you go if like tony robbins and stuff. Yes, like these people that are you know, how many books can tony robbins write?
Yeah, what is he putting in them? I mean, I don't like he's successful for a reason, but I do feel like
there is
Like I can't help but feel like it is like taking advantage of a certain kind of person in my opinion
The most like moving
Whether it be speeches or or speakers that I've heard
They have a fucking sort of tragic backstory or some sort of tragedy that that you know fell upon them
And then they work it into how they use that to motivate that I think is fucking legit
And I think it's admirable, but the people that are just like yo, listen up
Listen up. You need to know why you want to do something like yeah. No fucking shit. I want to know why
like like there was a
You know one like I forgot the name of this guy, but he was like yo know your why
And get out there and do it. It's like probably Eric Thomas. Maybe he's a very famous
Maybe and it's like they're not doing anything or saying anything that is not fucking blatantly obvious
I I think that like there's a market for motivational speaking, but I just do I I do think that it gets
Very repetitive and obvious and vague and then it starts to feel like
Because you're repeating yourself and because like all of this stuff is kind of the same
And now you it just feels like taking advantage in a way of people who are like desperately searching for answers
So they're like
We'll go out of their way to like I'll pay for a seminar just to like hear it from someone who's successful, but
I feel like you know, they're just taking advantage of that, but I want to read another one of these
Uh four things you should do if you want to be rich
Listen up frank. All right. Number one. I'm gonna write these down move away from friends and family. They are distraction
He did that
I'm on my way
Move away from friends and family. They are distraction
What by the way, is it said they are distraction? Yeah, okay written by a fucking third grader in
You know
Who knows uh two give up on obtaining material things for a while
Okay, and it was a picture of a car. You don't buy a car
Three stop worrying about things you can't control
You know so far not anything that I I've made zero dogs
Number four remove distractions around the house
parentheses such as kids snacks tv video games and weed
What?
First of all one
Do you see what people are able to do with video games nowadays the money they're able to churn out
No video games no tv no snacks
If you want to be rich don't have snacks put on top of all of that joey
Everything those are minuscule no weed no fucking weed no pots
And and you know this because when ilan musk was on joe rogan and he smoked that weed
Yeah, the stock plummeted. Yeah, look what happened. There you go
snacks don't each you want to be rich don't eat chips
I I mean I will say I think my favorite one in there though is the one where it's like
Stop worrying that you can't control things. It's like that is a good that is a good piece of advice
What fucking correlation does it have to do with getting rich literally none and it's like you're gonna be like, you know what?
I can't control that and someone's gonna be like
10 bucks take my money. Yeah, you know what I mean? It's like it's so fucking stupid people could just my least favorite ones
Because those are infuriating the ones that drive me up a wall are the ones that are like
So aggressively vague where it's like go out there be creative
Sip a cup of coffee and don't care look at the stars. It's like
Fucking i'll give you one piece of advice
Bull your brains out get a job fucking shut up
It's just they're like there's this whole like realm of people now that get motivated by
just the most
absolutely vanilla, you know pieces of
Motivation that it just it doesn't make sense like there's like there are legit ways to get motivated. I remember when I was in college
I heard a guy who started a foundation his name was Daniel trust
His family had survived. Oh, excuse me. No, he was the only surviving member of his family or something like that that
You know for a genocide and I think in the sedan or something
And the way he was able to integrate, you know
Motivating yourself based off of what your fucking personal trauma is and turning that around instead of having it way down on you
Genius beautiful fucking incredible and there are people that really really really do a great job doing that
But the people that are just out there and they'll be like
All right
Who's ready to talk step one fucking wake up and and
Don't drink coffee
Yeah, like if someone's giving you advice on like success and they tell you that
You need to like give up sleep or you need to like wake up at 5 a.m
Like no, you don't like you just don't like that's just not true
Like it's and it's this thing like oh, you know like I know Eric Thomas had a had a thing in one of his speeches
where he was like Beyonce like
Forgot to sleep or something because she was working so hard on some music videos like yeah
That happens like along the way like and there are some times where people like lose sleep because they're up late doing this
And that but it's not like a requirement like it's something that is
an effect of
You know you like putting some time in and whatever but it's not like
In order to achieve success you need to like give up sleep like that's just not true like that's just clichéd
It also then creates like organize your time better in my in my opinion
It also creates then a sense of like entitlement where people are like
Yo, I'm waking up at 5 a.m
Every single morning and I'm and I'm going to sleep at 2 a.m every single night
You know and I and I'm putting the work in it's like then then they they establish the sense of entitlement where it's like
I've been following these things that Gary v said no knock on Gary v's made a living for himself good for him, but like
They then be like like it creates like this sense of like well
I've been doing all that stuff and it's not happening to me life is unfair
And it's like there's so much more to all of this stuff that people don't sit there and realize
And they think that just because they put time and effort into something that it then needs to flourish into something
Like what's the one where it's like?
Yo, like you always see like people think it's a straight path to success
And it's like they forget about all the fucking failures along the way
You know and people don't
And I use people as a general term is like
With the ability like with these onset of people saying like, you know wake up early
Don't drink coffee people then follow and be like, all right. This is what's gonna
I'm gonna I'm gonna become successful. I'm gonna become rich and also guys. Guess what success
It it's it's subjective. It doesn't mean it's monetary
You know success means different things for different people
So don't sit there and be like successful as being a millionaire success looks very different for fucking everyone
Success for one person can be being a millionaire and motivate and that one person wants to do it
All the power to them to somebody else. It's being the best mother. It's being the best brother father
Um, you know being a great artist, you know, because unfortunately the arts don't draw in a lot of money when it comes on a lower
You know a lower scale and level and stuff like that the arts. It's true. I mean, I mean, yeah, I know well
Not always and the the the people that do you know, there's that banana that sold for like a million dollars
Or the fuck whatever that was wait, what?
You know like an art basil like a couple years ago. You remember that no someone taped a banana to the wall
And sold it for a million dollars. I don't know what it sold for but it was like not zero
It was more than two
Dollars 100 percent. That's unfortunate. Yeah
Also, like this is what I'm talking about six signs. You'll be a billionaire
Let's see. This is why I have a problem with this
these memes in this industry is because this is providing false hope for people who are lost and
That's why I know that like gary v eric thomas. These people have a
They they have a responsibility and they do provide a service to the world with the way that they do it
But when you do shit like this, this just feels like taking advantage of those people and
Like whatever reason, you know what I mean? Because like look how vague this is first of all six signs
You'll be a billionaire like no one knows that like this is a billionaires. This is ridiculous
And listen no offense to anyone listening to this
Chances are
You will not be a billionaire. No, I hope you do become a billionaire
And if you do I will support you and be so happy for you
Chances are not happening. Yeah, so it says one you have big goals
Come dude, shut up. Shut the fuck up two. You are persistent
Okay
You talk about ideas not people
You are decisive you understand what customers want
You understand what customers wants
You're prepared to start small and grow big
Okay
Well, that's literally and now you're a billionaire now you're a billionaire if you have all those things guess what?
You're on the right path. You're prepared to start small and grow big. Who starts big
Well, some people do start big giraffes
It's true elephants start bigger than normal babies
Giraffes are pretty big. Giraffe babies are huge. Giraffe horses
Okay, they got longer legs. Yeah. Yeah, we start pretty big whales
Huge big big start. That was a big start big start, but they do get bigger
Very big. They all get big big start bigger life. Yeah, but these this is what I'm talking about
Like that kind of shit just makes it seem like you're like taking advantage of people at that point
I'm just like, ah, this is stupid. All right. Well, this these are gonna be here. Let's do this right now
The basement yard six signs that you're a stupid bitch. All right
number one
You're listening to the show

See you have no shoes. Don't buy shoes
Don't waste your time buying shoes. Don't have snacks the more weed. Have you ever seen the feet of the most successful people in the world?
They're not smooth
Also, I actually haven't
Exactly actually the brawn james is pretty successful and he's got an ugly foot
That's what I'm saying because he didn't wear shoes growing up. Yeah, didn't have a comfy thing to you know walk on
Don't wear shoes successful people don't do that
Okay, and there you have it. There it is. It's five. That's the five. I think we said we were gonna do six

That's it. Don't sleep
Just stay up. Don't even work. Just stay up talk to no one be your friends. No family
They will hold you back listen wake in order to be successful
What I'm this is what I'm gathering from these memes in order to be successful. You need to never sleep
Don't do weed don't eat snacks. Don't talk to your family. Don't have friends
Don't enjoy anything
But when and also don't not have a job. Yeah
And just stay up for 24 hours. And guess what if you if you do have a job
Get another one. You fucking lazy piece of shit. Get two jobs. You lazy dumpster bitch. You can never have enough jobs
Boom more jobs less sleep less family
That's it. That's a t-shirt right there. That's it. That's I the base media rules of success
More jobs more jobs. No sleep. No sleep. No family if you sleep if you blink
You're fucked up
No job. No sleep. No family or friends and no chips. Oh, yeah
No snacks. We're also cutting you a single pop tart. You're done. You're dead. Yeah, you just lost 500 000 dollars
You had the opportunity to be a fucking billionaire and now you're gonna set up for a measly millionaire
idiot
twin
We're in sync
Now we're tearing up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you
So don't don't don't don't don't don't jump. You know, I'm done. Get out of my door
