This show is brought to you by Bud Light Seltzer.
It is unquestionably good, and I'm going to share one.
Yeah.
Hey, what's going on, everybody?
It is time for another wonderful episode of The Bill.
Burt.
Pod.
Cast.
There we go.
You know, everybody just has it on a split screen, so it doesn't matter.
I have a, I have a, i get joy when i see a reporter
when they're and we're gonna go throw to bill and he's just frozen
thanks jane i love that i don't know why that makes me happy
i don't well i mean it's oh you know it's good clean fun nobody gets hurt
it's a little thing it What is going on? You got
the tie dye shirt, man. Like where were you performing, man? Someplace where they're keeping
it weird, man. Austin, Portland. No, Georgia, my daughter, Georgia makes tie dyed shirts and she
made this for me. And it's funny, you get rid of the yellow sweat stains on your white shirt. So
you just, I have a bunch of tie dyed shirts now. now oh wow I didn't know that took me way back to the early 70s when tie-dye
shirts first went mainstream and I remember being in um where the hell was I in like first grade
and I was so psyched that they had purple and I just remember you tied up everything just was
tied up in knots.
Is that all you do?
And you just dunk it?
Well, you can do it with rubber bands.
Or you can just tie the shirt in like three knots and then dunk it.
But the ones with the rubber bands, you'd grab this part.
And then you'd pull it out.
And then you'd rubber band, rubber band, rubber band.
And then it would give you a spiral from the stomach or the shoulder.
You'd do it out from the shoulder.
I actually was really into that kind of shit as a kid i think my dad probably thought i was gay i mean that would do it
oh yeah the fact that he's in 80s if you were just really into tie-dying shirts for his generation
he probably thought he had a little queen on his hands oh reupholstering i'm saying you're not
burt reupholstering a couch i not Bert reupholstering a couch I
used to reupholster couches in college and I would get fabric and I would do I would do the whole
couch I'd pull the sides off and I I mean I was like really into it I don't know what part of my
personality that like loves that shit but I love like the knickknackiness of it you know well I
since I started watching people redo cars one of my
favorite things is when they they take it over to the person to do i love when that when that
when the engine comes back and it's all painted and it's clean i love that and i love what the
interior comes back and and just to see what they're going to do with like the colors and
the seats and all that type of stuff i mean mean, I don't know, as a college student, there was forever some old ass couch sitting out on a sidewalk that you know had been
fucked on, drooled on and all of this stuff. So if you knew how to rip that off and reupholster it
and put some new cushions in there, that's a pretty viable skill there.
I would do it for free. I loved it. You know what? I actually, I'm at a real,
free. I loved it. You know what? I actually, I'm at a real, I'm at a real impasse right now because I need a car and I have, I'm having a really hard time finding a car that I want to
drive that I feel like I'd look good in that isn't a hundred thousand dollars. Like I'm having a
really hard time going like, I'm not a pickup truck going like i'm not a pickup truck guy so i was a pickup truck guy i could just get a cool pickup truck and then rock that right
we have an suv so all suvs are out of the thing you go to sedans and you look at sedans and it's
like certain sedans like i feel like my body is bigger than you know like the cadillac i want
man i'm having a really hard time honestly Cadillacs are not a hundred grand
you can get plenty of nice things I'm not spending oh by the way I'm not spending a hundred grand I
refuse to spend a hundred grand so so when you said redo a car I was actually talking to Snoop
about this the other day I was like I know you got a car guy can you set me up with a car guy in LA
who I wouldn't mind like a nice like you you have
your pickup truck and you enjoy driving that i love that could that be your only car would you
let that be your only car yeah i could i would be a little concerned with parking it in certain
areas because it's a clean truck and trucks since i bought my i bought my truck in 2011
they've really become popular they really really like there's a whole bunch of stuff that has become popular where, you know,
and those Mecham auto shows, those auctions first came on.
I mean, it was just Shelby, Mopar, GTO.
It was the same stupid cars.
Not stupid cars.
I love all those cars.
But it was just this, we got a Superbird, you know.
It's just like this, you know, won Daytona and was outlawed.
It was the same damn stories.
And I feel like since then, like a bunch of other cars have become, like, you know, popular.
I can't literally not even remember what the fuck I was taught.
What was your question?
No, like, could that be your only car?
Because I want to get a nice convertible.
Oh, yeah, I know.
So then my truck got super popular when I bought it.
Afterwards, then trucks got popular just because I think people got sick of the same old thing.
Sorry, that's what I was trying to say. And so you're afraid that people would see your truck
and realize that's a lot of money in parts. Let's steal it. Or just steal it because they like it. Oh, yeah. Here's the thing.
For you, dude, I feel like there's a couple of really cool, like, I love an Oldsmobile Cutlass T-tops.
You know, if you want to white trash it up, there's things to do with that. Because this is the deal.
I like those resto mods where, like, you can, you know, the whole underneath could be like 2020.
Yeah.
And then in the car can look like 1970, whatever you want.
And they can hide in the console,
a place to plug in for your phone and all the latest stuff.
When you're driving it, it can look all original.
But like what I found, like with my truck,
when I go to take a turn I literally have to grab
underneath the seat so I don't slide into the door because of just you know it was a basic it was like
a farm truck you know what I mean so it's not really like they were they were excited about
independent suspension remember that when they would be driving over the rocks the railroad ties
or whatever um so everybody why I asked you know if i can fix the suspension a little bit on it
you know beyond a sway bar they're always saying dropping it down and it's like i just what i
always liked about a truck was riding up a little bit higher i thought it looked better i don't mind
when they're sitting down but they've taken them now now that you know they cut out inside the bed
and the tires are sticking up those are cool cool. It's just not my style.
Dude, why don't you get a Grand National?
Get a Buick Grand National because you couldn't drive it anywhere.
Someone would steal it.
That's how excited I am about cars.
I'm asking you questions while answering them.
Get one of those early 80s.
Remember all those guys who sort of side deal weed?
You know those cars?
The Monte Carlo, the Buick Regal.
Oh, I remember the Monte Carlo.
Yeah, those little two-door ones.
Those early 80s ones to like 85.
Right around 85, I think, or 86, they started having the aerodynamic headlights.
It wasn't quite.
It took me a while to get used to those.
But, like, dude, one of those was some fucking old school,
like Crager rims with the white lettering on the tires.
Yeah.
Sort of looks like a stock car. That could be a bad-ass car.
I have a real, I have a hard time looking at cars and going, I, okay.
You know, every car I seem to like is like $1,500 a month. And I go,
I can't pay that. Like, I don't know what it is.
I don't know if it's one day I'll get comfortable paying it, but I just cannot pay that. I know that that's a mortgage.
That's a mortgage in any reasonable state. Yeah. Yeah. And then I go, that's the cars. Those are
the cars I like that I go, Oh, I love the S class Mercedes is a cool car. Seven series BMW. That's
a cool looking car. And I feel like it's a big bodied I want a big bodied car and
then I go for 18 grand I can just get like a Cadillac convertible like 676 or 72 you could
get such a sick fucking Cadillac I know a bunch of guys that could build that thing you could do
like you could keep the thing looking like Nick Nolte's fucking caddy on the
outside.
Yeah.
And then underneath,
but people,
you know,
people who know cars look underneath that they can,
you can always see the shiny shit,
you know,
glowing underneath.
But,
um,
there's a lot of need to be dialed in and like have a place for my cell
phone,
everything like that,
but have that,
that Nick Nolte baby blue,
like caddy body. I'll be honest with you i don't know why more people don't do that yeah it's also it's good for the environment
you know you're recycling granted you are ripping a bunch of shit out and putting a bunch of new
stuff in but it is a uh and then also you rescue one of those old cars dude there's some like a lot
of people get the ones from the 60s.
There's some ones from the 70s before they shrunk them down that are really like sort of rare
because I don't think that people necessarily liked after like there was a period in there
where they had this new front end in the early 70s. I forget which one it was, but it kind of
tanked. People didn't like it. And you can tell because they only had it for a couple of years before they went
back to more of a traditional one like the 75, you know that front end? It's somewhere
between like 71 and 74, they had this front end that I don't think did, I might be wrong
here but I don't think it did that well. But now when I see them, because I don't see a
lot of those, I'm like, oh my God, I gotta look one up right now I fucking love those let me look like that's my thing but I go why don't more people do that
your car should be enjoyable to drive now like I I just can't get into like a what I'd what I'd be
comfortable paying for is like you know and I gotta be real honest with you like the Camrys
and and Accords they're really expensive in my opinion
I think they're overpriced for that car everything's overpriced to a point where I just go
how did cars get so expensive and then you look and go why wouldn't I I would love to drive that
car every time fucking top down light a cigar enjoy your ride over the hills exactly dude 71 72 73 they changed the front
end three times if you look up the caddy so i kind of i'm kind of partial to that 72
because i want to say that when elvis got buried his funeral that was no but those was 77 you think
i like the 72 personally. Yeah. Oh.
I mean, it's a sled.
Dude, a two-door?
You get a two-door?
Yeah.
Two-door.
White on white. Ooh.
White with a maroon interior.
72 Cadillac Eldorado convertible.
That car is so you, it's ridiculous.
It really is.
Bill,
Bill,
Bill,
$9,000.
That's it,
$9,000.
You could take another 30 grand
if you really wanted to do it up.
Another 30 grand
just underneath dude,
it would be fucking,
it would be ridiculous.
Yeah.
Maybe a little more than that,
but if you just,
but I mean, under 50, you could have this this sick that's half of of what you were talking about
paying you could have this sick ass car nobody's got that i have not seen that car out here in la
white with maroon which is why you might not want to talk about it here because you're gonna bunch
of people go as you're driving down the street um but like yeah i'm telling you one of these days i'm gonna get uh i'm gonna get the 67
el dorado that's the one that i like because i am a i i'm not a speed guy i like cruising
i'm a i'm an old man i got i like i got this this irish sweater i bought
a jumper whatever the hell they call them over in Ireland
I got that and I smoke cigars
I am a, I love the right lane, dude
I feel the left lane, that's for the kids
That's for the kids
Let them do all that crazy shit
I feel like I became older at a time where
Things weren't set up for older people
It's like now it's Tesla's and this shit.
I go, I wish I had been an older, I had been my age today in 2002 when the Cadillac DTS
was out.
That was such a great sedan.
The Cadillac DTS.
You can still get it.
You can still get it.
It's 18 years old.
The bodies of those cars are so small. They're really small and they're not, like they're, everything's compact. It's 18 years old. The bodies of those cars are so small.
They're really small, and they're not –
like, everything's compact.
I get it.
You want a big car.
All right, well, there you go.
Adam Sandler had a DTS.
MTV used to have a day in the life was a show, a documentary show.
And they profiled adam sandler and adam sandler was 35 and in a cadillac dts it was like an old man's car my dad had one
and i saw adam sandler a hollywood star in a dts and it looked like the coolest fucking thing and
then i moved to la that was when I was in New
York I moved to LA and I saw Kiefer Sutherland in a Cadillac DTS and I was like this car up now I'm
not familiar with this it was and Bill I meet my wife and I'm like I'm gonna go buy a car right
so I go and I test drive the DTS oh yeah i know that car yeah they had the tires with the
with the yellow stripe around it yeah that's a sick car i love that car car and so i said to my
wife i test drove it and i go i'm getting a dts and she goes honey you are not that old you're
like 29 and she's like this is an old man car she's like get something young like who you are
so i ended up getting one of my favorite cars
I've ever had,
a Yukon Denali.
That was a hot fucking car.
Was that a big SUV?
Big SUV,
and I got a great deal,
$500 a month,
nothing down.
The dude kind of fucked it up,
and then they tried
to take it back from me.
So like,
I think we gave you
too much of a deal on that.
And I was like,
ah,
I was like,
I already had it 18 days, you can't take it back. And so, i think we gave you too much of a deal on that and i was like ah i was like i already had it 18 days you can't take it back and so uh that was the law is if you had it over 18
days they couldn't and they i would think once you drive away it's done i was told have they ever
called up hey i think we fucked you too bad on that car said you come back down here they did
and you know what they're you know what they're um they would they try to get the car back it was 500 550 a month nothing down and the dude was his first day and dave williamson
the guy i work with comic i work with now told me long after that you always want to call a car
dealership up and go hey i was just uh in there the other day i was talking to the new guy what's
his name and they go oh you mean bill and he, Bill, send me over to Bill. Cause he goes, the new guy, they always want to close deals for
to get some sales under his belt. So there you can always work a deal with the new guy.
They always will give you a better deal with the new guy. So this guy must've been brand new
five 50 a month. And then they realized they fucked up and I was already on the road.
The car was home and I couldn't get to the
car I was on the road and they the the thing they used was and this is how long ago this this is
is that I didn't give them a landline all I had was a cell phone and they were like when you go
yeah it sounds to me like you're reaching for shit so I'm done with this phone call I'll see
you in court bye and so I'm gonna go back there to get I'll see you in court. Bye.
I'm going to go back there.
We didn't stick our dick far enough in your ass.
Well, let me go back into the showroom.
Get the fuck out of here.
Dude, I can really see you in one of those.
You've got to get yourself a nice sled.
Yeah. Furthermore, I think it's good know i furthermore i think it's good for
your business i think it is too it's great for branding bill it is it's great for branding i've
learned stuff being with you like that car that is you and people are gonna and this is another
thing too you can't hate on somebody that has that fucking car you just can't like if you had
like uh you know if you're the
machine and oh i'm inner tubing and i'm blue and then you had like a s550 fucking amg it's like
ah it's it's just a character it's just a character he's not the guy no like you look you i could
i could see you stepping out of that Boss Hog Mobile.
Big time.
Big time.
I want to see it.
I get so much joy out of my friends getting cool cars, old cars, new cars.
I just, I love cars so much.
I get like, you know, Dean was great because Dean would always be going through motorcycles
and cars and shit.
It was always fun to see him. Rogan with all of his, you know, the ones that he does would always be going through motorcycles and cars and shit. It was always fun to see him.
Rogan with all of his, you know, the ones that he does.
He's got excellent taste in cars.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I just, I always get like, I tell so many people that.
It's like, why don't you just go get, go get a car from like the 80s and just redo underneath the thing.
And then, you know, just have them, you know know touch up the upholstery a little bit
and throw something in there so you can charge your phone and listen to your to your music
and you can park it anywhere nobody's gonna give a fuck because they're not gonna know what's up
and uh the insurance will be lower right well i'm not i don't know when they say how much money you
put into it but whatever i just think that that is the way to go as opposed to, you know, getting something new.
I mean, I got two little kids, so I got to get a – right now I'm actually in the market to get something
because we had sort of a sporty SUV for my wife.
And once you get the two car seats in there and it has like a real sort of short hatchback,
and then all of a sudden it's just – I mean, it's annoying to me that it's like,
I mean, we used to stick five kids in the back of a Chevette.
We did.
We had two kids in the hatchback and then there was three of us sitting across.
Okay.
But there was no kid seats back then.
There was no child seats.
Do you know what car they're coming out with that I'm really excited about?
And I don't know if this car.
New Bronco?
Yes.
But they have redone the grand wagoneer oh the jeep do you remember the grand wagoneer with the paneling and the big i
mean that was a big that's a car i could drive around in if i bought an old grand wagoneer and
had them trick it out that's a fucking car i could get in. What is stopping you? Oh, Bill, I might get an old Grand Wagoneer, get it really done out,
like really done out, and that be my car.
I would be happy when I was – oh, my God, I'm so excited right now.
When I was 14 years old, this kid, I forget his name,
he was the quarterback for our football team.
He was a sophomore, and I was playing I was playing junior
varsity I was in like seventh or sixth grade and I was playing on the JV team in high school
because it was a it was a private school I know everyone was small and he said to me God I wish
I remember this kid's name he goes hey man can you pull my car around and I was like yeah he
thought I was like 15 and I went out and it was a grand wagoneer it's the first car i ever
drove i was 14 years old and i was like oh i mean i'm just like stealing like this and i i never
i never touched the gas it moved so quickly i put it in reverse took my father break and i went
hold on oh grand wagoneer i want a grand wagoneer god i was actually going wow. Grand Wagoneer. I want a Grand Wagoneer.
God.
I was actually going to say Grand Wagoneer when you guys started.
That or El Camino, but I just kept my mouth shut.
Should I say that?
No.
You would have had them.
66 El Camino.
Because if you only want a two-seater, if you want that, like, cool car,
that's the way to ditch the back.o what a good-looking car the jeep grand wagoneer
oh my god bill what a good look that's a fucking beast oh these have got to be expensive as shit
you get you know what's hot right now is vans. Vans are finally making a comeback because they got labeled, you know,
pedophile mobiles and all of that.
And I remember when custom vans were in their heyday,
sort of the end of the heyday.
Our whole family went to the auto show.
We used to go every year.
For real?
We used to go to the boat show.
We never bought anything.
We would just go to all of this shit. So showed up and we showed up to the thing and that was when
they had all like the velour captain's chairs yeah right and you could all spin around and like talk
to each other and shit and we would we would tell him my dad come on dad you got to buy that van you
got to buy it then he goes oh you know it'd be great he got like all amped up about it and he never bought the thing but even then i know my parents that if
we actually spun around to talk to each other they would tell us not to do it it's dangerous
they had like a there was like a governor on fun you know which would end up being like
20 grand a 1989 jeep grand wagoneer
oh man i'm looking it up now 20 grand. A 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer.
Oh, man.
I'm looking it up now.
In the 80s, they called it the Goldilocks era of SUVs.
What color do you like?
I mean, I kind of want white, but I feel like white looks like a mom's car.
Navy blue would look pretty great.
Navy blue with the wood panel.
Yeah, the Grand Wagoneer is so better than just the Wagoneer.
Yeah, Grand Wagoneer.
Dude, I'm looking at one in like a black or a gray.
That's sweet.
See, this person redid this one.
Yeah.
They took all the wood off the side.
If you're into that, if you're not into it, you can do that.
$24,000.
And if you go in, Bill, and do what you said.
So there's, and there are companies, you say, that, like, can really take the- The whole hot rod scene started out here, dude.
There's some of the best builders in the country are right out here in Los Angeles.
You know, one of the guys who did my truck he actually moved to Arizona he got sick of the taxes and shit out here but like he know he knows
everybody out here so if that's what you're looking to do or he's just right in Arizona
so you could literally call him tell him what wanted. He'll go out and find it.
He picks the whole thing up and then he just goes, all right, you know, I need this amount
of money to get it started. And then I'll just send you pictures as it's going. And then you
just know, dude, you know what? I almost bought a few years ago, which would have been so perfect
right now. I've been giving my wife shit about it.
In 2018, I was going to buy one of those GMC RVs,
you know, the one from Stripes.
I was going to get that in like the Palm Desert one,
the lime green.
I was going to get that, have a humidor in there and a little bar.
I was still drinking at the time. And I was just going to hire a driver and just go on the road. And I was saying
to my wife now, you know, cause it's scary to fly and all this shit right now. I was like,
cause the big thing that nixed it was where was I going to keep it? Yeah. You know what I mean?
That was the big problem. I can't just park that out in front of my frigging house, be that person,
you know, the person with the RV next to the house and the tall grass around
the wheels before they had weed whackers, that used to always happen. So she nixed the idea.
And I was saying like, do you understand that I could have hopped in that thing right now,
started a run in Bakersfield and just gone and just on a big loop
going all the way out to Utah out to Grand Junction Colorado down to Santa Fe just loop my
way all the way back making money the whole way yeah god damn it there's a guy Chase Leopard do
you know who he is no but I love his name yeah name. Yeah, he's a really cool- Ace Leppard?
That's his birth name?
Yeah, and I'm certain he's a massive fan of yours.
He's a big fan of podcasts.
He's like the ultimate great dude to have in your corner because he loves podcasts and he loves comedy,
and he is really good with social media,
and he can grab content, and he's really an amazing dude.
An amazing guy, but what he did
when the pandemic happened is bought a fucking rv redid it and just travels is now traveling all
through the north northwest and it and i follow him on social media and it just looks so great
he's out in the middle of a field in nowhere, like big lake next to him, family with
him. And he's like, you know, and you just go, yeah, like, why? I mean, that's why I love being
on a tour bus. We should pivot and talk about your tour. Are you taking a tour bus? No, I'm flying
to Oh, shoot, I gotta make a video to promote that. Fuck. I'm flying to Connecticut. And I'm
doing this barn on a farm where they've been
having live music and everything it's a great gig and you know my agent went
there watched a band and looked at the crowd to make sure that they were really
doing their due diligence to make sure people weren't you know being unsafe so
I'm there and then I'm at that place in
Jersey whatever Kevin Hart just did I'm doing that and that's the one Gaffigan
did I did it too I think yeah yeah it's that's a good one I will say this in
your video or for you people listening based check out the laws in Jersey
before you go because they're pretty strict with people
not getting out of their cars. They were a little looser for me. They were really strict for Gaffigan.
But if you have a pickup truck or an SUV or a van, make sure you bring whatever. They will not
allow cars with big lifts in a lot of times. These are just rules that are really helpful for the
fans going to the show. But it's great
if you have a pickup truck
because they'll let you sit
in the bed of your pickup truck
and then you can kind of
tailgate there.
But they're going to not let you go
and hang around
and walk around.
But that's a fun,
fun fucking show.
There's a lot, man.
It's interesting to see
how people are doing it.
So those are the two shows
you're doing on this tour?
Those are the two places
where I'm going to be.
I'm just sort of doing
like a residency at both places,
like doing four or five days at one,
four or five days at the other.
Oh, are you doing,
you're doing the smaller venue in Jersey?
I don't know what they are.
Doing the Blue Grotto, but it's sold out.
Yeah, you're doing,
you're doing where they set up tables in an infield.
Yeah, I'm not doing driving.
I'm not doing the big rooms like you, Bert.
Hey, listen.
Oh, you're doing the smaller room.
No, I wish I –
Isn't it enough that you got my quarterback?
You got to rub it in?
No, no.
My point is those are –
Lake Winnipesaukee?
Those are great.
I've heard –
Berbiglia did a run there.
Kevin Hart did a run there.
That's a great, great venue.
And I think there's going to be more like that in the future.
No, and it's going to happen out here on the West Coast.
And if I had my fucking RV, I could have driven to all of them.
Yeah, I think I'm doing some of those.
I think there's one in Colorado and New new mexico that i'm doing and uh
i'm doing it when do you when do you when your dates when do you go what are your dates you know
i think i start uh when what's today tuesday a week from wednesday so today's the 29th 15th 16th
and 7 to 23rd i think i start Don't hold me to that. Okay.
It's the 22nd.
The shows at the Fairfield Comedy Club,
they sold out about an hour ago.
Nice.
Wow.
All right.
That's going to be fun, man.
It's good to get back into stand-up mode where you start writing jokes again
and your brain allows you to,
to like focus on comedy again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No,
I'm up for it.
I'm actually looking right now to see what these,
what these things goes for.
GMC 76 in immaculate condition on eBay.
What did they want for it for a total?
Oh, that's gone.
You fucking cocksuckers.
Oh, the green machine.
I was all about it, dude.
You know,
and so much stuff happened since then
that like me and my friends,
we all kind of hit a wall
and cleaned up
and stopped going as hard.
And, you know,
all of my friends now,
I was like, yeah, dude,
I can't smoke the way I used to. I can't drink the way I used to. I went to the doctor. I got this.
I got that. So we're all sort of like chilling. So I got to like try to figure out. It's weird
because so much of our friendship, this is crazy, but so much of our friendship was based on getting
fucked up
together that i know we still like each other but you got to try to think like so now what do we do
yeah like cards like how do we get a like i'm used to when i see them i equate them with
having a buzz or or some of rush, some sort of altered experience.
Your heart skips a beat.
You're like, oh, we're day drinking today.
Dude, I remember a long time ago, me and DeRosa.
It's so hard.
We were such fucking animals together.
I remember one night I was sitting at the bar at Caroline's,
and I really just wanted to take it easy.
And I looked up and I said I hear
this oh the big queen's here and I turn around and it's DeRosa and I was like hey twinkle toes
right the usual shit then he comes down there he's like so what are we doing I don't know what
are we doing we're feeling each other out and dude we got fucking blasted to the
point i didn't talk to him for like 48 hours and i called him up and i was like joe you know we
gotta slow down man i i gotta be honest with you i love you to death but when i actually saw you on
the stairs at caroline i got disappointed and thought fuck now i gotta drink he goes shut the
fuck up and i said yeah he
goes dude i thought the exact same thing when i saw you sitting at the bar through that whole
thing when we were standing at the bar going so what are we doing he's like what are we doing
we were just waiting because we both wanted to but we're also kind of hoping somebody said don't do
it so um i kind of got to that place with like, you know, all of my friends.
Like, it's just one of those things, you know, you hit the 50 year marker, dude.
It's like, you got to go easy.
I have the same feeling with my family.
Yeah.
I go, we went to Hawaii one time and my wife said to me when we got there,
she goes, how about no booze this family
trip and I went we're in Hawaii she was like how about no booze and you stay dialed in and you just
no booze what do you say and I was like okay and I said to her I was like hell of a thing to drop
on you with your toes in the sand it was it happened on the plane it happened on the plane
and she goes let's just let's just try no booze on the flight and then I did no booze on the flight and I felt good
and I got there and then we hung out and I didn't get a drink that night and she was like yeah let's
see if you can go no booze for the trip she was just you know listen if you want to have a drink
if it gets to that point that's fine but I remember we went to a luau at like a hotel. It wasn't even a nice luau.
It was like in like a ballroom, an outdoor ballroom.
It was just horrible.
And I was, they were doing the thing
and they were passing drinks around
and my wife had a drink and I was like,
I'm doing no booze.
And I remember just watching the guys twist the thing
and it wasn't on fire.
And I just thought that's what
life's like with no booze is they're doing the baton with no fire like there's no no fun the
only grace the only saving grace is that same night a mom at our table and was all people we didn't know uh what had was on pills and was nodding out and we watched
her family try to ignore it and try to get through their dinner and all my daughters did was just
stare at her as this woman was like and i was like oh that's too much fire like you overdid your fire, honey. But I enjoy it. I have a lot of conflicting feelings about, you know, it sucks.
But I also, though, like I lived like a frat boy for like fucking 30 years.
And what kills me is it's still not enough.
Like I swear to God,
dude,
if I gave into what I want to do,
if I just was totally selfish and said,
but I don't think I would make 55.
Oh,
I,
I look at it this way.
I,
I am still,
I didn't drink for like the first 15 days of this show that I'm doing.
And then Snoop was like,
Hey,
Bert, why don't you come in my... You know, it's so funny.
This is what a fucking...
What are you supposed to do there?
That's one of the great hangs of your life, right?
Yeah.
But what's so funny, Bill,
is this is what a pushover I am.
And you'll get this.
He did not understand this.
He said from his trailer to my trailer,
I'm about to get my trailer,
and he goes,
Bert, come on here and do a shot.
And I thought he said,
"'Come on in here and shower.'"
And I went over anyway.
I walked in his trailer and I said,
"'You want to take a shower?' And he was like,
"'What?' I said, "'What did you say?'
And he said, "'I said, let's do a shot.'"
And I went, "'Oh, okay.'"
And then he looked at me and he goes,
"'You thought I wanted you
to shower and you still came and I'm here what you should have said was Snoop that's how great
your music is and we took a couple shots and he gave me a couple blunts I was still working so I
couldn't I couldn't smoke with him but uh he gave me a couple of blunts, and he was like, you know, this is for you later.
And by the way, I mean, I know that if he ever heard this,
he'd fucking be livid, but...
Don't say it.
No, it's just...
Don't say it, Bert.
You gotta learn how to...
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Shut your face.
Listen to me.
It's not bad, Bill.
It's not bad.
But, like, with his blunts,
they're enjoyable like a cigar. Like, it's not... You're not, bad but like with his blunts they're enjoyable like a
cigar like it's not you're not like you hit it and you take a hit but you can sit with it like
i smoked one of his blunts i maybe inhaled like three times but i smoked the whole blunt just
enjoying the smell and the flavor and the aroma like i'm saying he'd be living because he'd be
like you just wasted an entire blunt but i was like you know i'm not gonna lie i'm getting upset with you yeah like i'm sure
he was like and then uh dude have you seen these this is another thing that i would go out and go
buy a box of if they weren't a zillion dollars have you seen those weed cigars it's not a blunt
oh my god it's cbd isn't it, no. It'd still get you fucked up. Marijuana cigar.
What?
That's why I treat weed or snoops blunt.
Oh, dude.
Oh, dude.
You got to see these things.
They're all green and they look like a cigar.
It's like a Kelly Green.
Oh, it's Irish.
Look it up right now.
I'll tell you the name of it.
Acme 420 Magars.
M-A-G-A-R-S.
It's like marijuana cigar.
Dude, they got like the half-hour smoke.
They got the cannon.
Oh, Bert, I'm telling you right now, dude.
If I didn't have a wife and family,
if I didn't have, you know have the reverse of a death wish because I don't want to die,
I would buy a box of those.
I'd have mushrooms.
I would have bourbon.
I would have steaks.
I mean, just everything that I – what I have to watch out for is everything that I love can kill you quickly.
I love here. I'm going to show you. I love these.
I might start with my own money,
getting these blunts and just enjoying them like a cigar, like enjoy.
And like, cause I felt bad the first time I did it,
I felt bad cause I was like, there's a lot of weed.
And here's like a fucking rich guy burning $100 bills.
Yeah, but that's the same with a cigar.
A cigar, you're burning like $20, $10.
I know, but it's not like you're –
but the smoke, you know, you're still enjoying the smoke.
I'm enjoying it.
The thing about the weed, though, is that's precious smoke.
Yeah, but it smells so much better than a cigar.
It's so good that Cody...
That's like the weed version of taking an extra long shower.
It's not good for the environment.
You can do it every once in a while if you're sore.
You get so high on Snoop's weed that you're like...
high on snoop's weed that you're that i you're like the like when you're like and you're like i guess i'm just going to bed like i i i got done one night i had a glass of wine
and i was like and he has these great they smell so fucking good and they have a glass tip so he
has they're like this big and it's just a
cannon i mean it is thick i want to grab one and show you i mean i took a picture and sent it to
rogan and he goes it looks like it's filled with gum and i was like it's so good but um and he's
got his own brand so he's got i you know i don't want to know the brand name i don't want to i'm
gonna go you know what fuck that do it for the listeners do it for the listeners i won't remember my ass hurts so fucking bad

exactly. They're closed in, so
they're sealed. Louis the 13th
blunts. They're unreal. I mean they're sealed. Louis XIII blunts.
They're unreal.
I mean, take a look at this, Bill.
Wait a second. I'm trying to... Hey, look up the price, Andrew.
Let me see that when it's got a glass tip on it.
Glass tip.
Oh, wow.
And the tobacco, it's not like a Swiss your sweet, but it tastes kind of sweet.
You know, like.
I hate that shit.
It smells so good.
I walked into.
Anybody tells me about like a cigar that tastes sweet.
I still remember the first time I had one and the last time I had one.
I was in Chicago and this guy had like this really light leaf. looked like whenever you they had like that Connecticut rap or something yeah dude it was
like I felt like I just ate pancakes or something and decided to fucking smoke it was disgusting
it was really gross I didn't like it yeah they're uh they're really really enjoyable and and you it's it's like i hope young people
are getting something out of this because this is what happens when you get to our age
is you sort of reminisce about the fun you have and the shit that you would be doing
he he really enjoys marijuana like it's it's all right let's not let's not talk it's locker room
shit okay the man the man is a uh he's
a mogul he's a legend in this business and how he chooses to unwind is his business there all right
you ready so so bill the other night we have movie night out here in macon we have a big
screen where we're doing the show and we have a great sound system, and we play Jurassic Park, and they were serving Bud Light Seltzer.

She had her first Bud Light Seltzer.
Oh, I saw that.
And she loved it.
She's like, this is amazing.
I go, oh, I'm hitting up Bill.
And I was like, Bill, I'm here with Rosario.
And she had a Bud Light Seltzer.
She had the cranberry.
They've got three new flavors, grapefruit, pineapple, and cranberry,
starting, I think, starting in September.
Basically, it's a Cape Codder.
That's what we used to call cranberry.
Cranberry and booze, right?
Cape Codder.
It's the beer version of a Cape Codder.
100 calories, 1 gram of sugar.
Where was this when I was bruising?
Yeah, back in the day.
Now they've got the five-step filtration process for a quality taste and a clean finish and what they it was great they
have a bud light easy drinking name which is what rosario loved about it is she said that's so funny

One of my favorite sponsors we have is Thompson Cigars, Bill,
and I'll tell you why.
On this show, when we wrap, me and Cody Rhodes, who loves cigars,
go to his trailer, shut the doors, and smoke cigars like our wives aren't there.
It is so awesome.
And yesterday I had a La Gloria Cubana Series R
came from the Thompson Cigars.
And it was so enjoyable.
That is my favorite cigar to have.
I absolutely love Thompson Cigars.
And whether you're just kicking back
after a week of being essential,
there's no better way to relax than with a premium cigar.
Thompson Cigars. I concur.
How come we got a cigar company on this podcast?
Tell me about it.
They have the best deals and selections to keep you occupied for hours on end.
With over a century in the business, these guys really know their stuff.
They got the best prices on the biggest brands in the business, from Macanudo to Monte Cristo.
brands in the business from Macanudo to Monte Cristo, and they have the largest selection of samplers online with options to build your very own everyday Thompson Cigar five-pack fever program,
including 300 different five-pack options to mix and match. Looking to try new rare top blends?
Don't want to splurge on a box check out thompson cigar tour a smattering
of five different blends delivered to your doorstep each month i absolutely love those those
little those uh those tour cigar packages because you get something new and it's stuff you wouldn't
normally buy they also say you're not going to try because i i've kind of like built myself into
like a corner with cigars.
That's why I like this thing here where there's a few that I've been trying that I just, you know, meant to try, never tried.
Oh, my habits going off the rails, Bert.
They also send out insane cigar deals via daily emails with personalized email preference options.
So you can sign up to receive them all or just on the days you feel like reading the emails thompson cigar companies continues to be
the number one choice for premium cigars in the usa because they deliver the very best customer
experience i i absolutely love the option of trying cigars i would never try because sometimes
you get into a rut and even when you go into your local cigar shop you'll say to
the guy hey I want something new but he knows what you like already so he kind of puts you in a thing
of where you already are and you're like I he's like for me it's strong big ring gauge he's like
he's a size queen he makes that joke every time but well I got a punch in my little value pack
there I never tried one of those before been I've been meaning to. I loved it.
And I also, dude, I love the domestic one.
The ones that are – I'm sick of chasing Cubans.
Half the time you get burned.
So I'm into this big time.
I love those La Gloria Cubana Series R that Thompson has on their sites.
And I had the other one the other day with Cody.
I mean, literally no one has a better selection than Thompson.
Their customer service is phenomenal, top-notch, just the best. So sit back, no one has a better selection than Thompson. Their customer
service is phenomenal, top-notch, just the best. So sit back, take a break from all the craziness
with a cigar from Thompson Cigar Company. These guys rarely do offers, but now Thompson is offering
our listeners 15% off orders over 75% or 20% off orders over $99.

Let's talk Tom Brady.
Let's do it.
How fucking great did he look?
I sent a text out to everyone I knew, and I said,
Tom, the Bucs are going to win the Super Bowl.
And then they fell apart towards the end.
No, no, no.
He's getting used to, you know, there's people breaking off their routes and
shit. He threw the pick stick. Who gives a fuck? He did that with the Patriots. What I was impressed
with, the zip on his ball still there. The competitive fire is still there. That's the deal.
You know, and I was, you know, watching the Patriots. It was the same thing. Cam Newton's
dealing with a new offense, a whole new team, new system and all that. And I watched what Bill Belichick was able
to do with Matt Castle, who Matt Castle does not have Cam's skill set. So I imagine that he's just
going to, as we get through September, seeing, okay, this is in Cam's wheelhouse. This is a
little too Tom. We need to make this more Cam. That's what he did with Matt Castle. Make this more Matt than blah,
blah,
blah.
The guy is a fucking genius.
The thing we need is,
uh,
the other thing I,
there's a couple of things that just scared me that,
you know,
our quarterback had head and shoulders,
the most yards rest rushing.
That scares me.
Cause that,
you know,
he's a big dude,
but he's,
you know,
taking all those hits.
And I,
I just hope that guy,
Harry or somebody steps up.
So we have like a legit number two option.
I don't know why we didn't sign Danny and Madola is still killing.
He's killing it for the fucking lions.
He had a great game for them last Sunday.
We need a guy like that.
So it frees up Edelman to be single,
uh,
single coverage.
I thought,
uh,
you know what? This is silly.
Our old line looked good, though.
I don't like talking about the politics and stuff of it.
I really enjoyed the protests
that I think that
the Falcons did on kickoff.
I thought that was kind of
cool that they did the kickoff and then
everyone just took a fucking knee.
I thought that was like... i mean i don't understand people that have like i actually
have friends of mine you know back home uh will still argue to me they'll argue you know trump
isn't racist or anything it's just like so you're telling me all those millions and millions and millions and millions of black people are wrong but you as a white person understand their life experience more than they do yeah
look i'm just saying the da da da da and all that type of shit so i mean i i don't know
it's a it's a weird uh it's a really weird time and like the level of hostility
um the level of racism that still
exists that you know they make it seem like
it left in the 1960s
it's just like it
hasn't man it's like it's right
I mean it's but it's
also the news really
it's so fucking news
is just so fucking reprehensible where
they really like fan the flames of dividing people.
And I was guilty last week because I talked about Trump saying, you know, troops are losers and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And right after I did the podcast, I looked it up because it was interesting to me.
How is he going to get out of this? And then I looked, I was just like, oh, this is just somebody said that he said it.
And then this whole thing was written by people, you know, super hardcore left.
Oh, this is probably bullshit.
Yeah.
Or exaggerated and all of that.
And then I got fucking hammered.
I just, you know, by people listening to my podcast, I was just like, you're right.
So I mean, I've been guilty of doing that.
And it's even stupid for me to bring it up because it's like,
if they're into the guy, they're still going to vote for him.
So I'm just kind of excited that all of this shit's going to be over in about a month.
Yeah, it's going to restart.
I hate to say this.
I definitely think Trump is getting reelected.
No, no, no.
But my thing is I'm sick of the,
like, I really think, like, debates and all of that shit.
I think there's a few really open-minded,
amazingly smart people that haven't already made up their mind
and are really listening to candidates or whatever
and really want to hear the issues and are really impartial.
But the other
99.9% of us knew who the fuck we were voting for probably four years ago. Yeah, yeah. I feel like
Trump people a month into his presidency is like, I can't wait to vote for this guy again.
And a bunch of liberals are like, we got to get this guy out. I don't think that there's people
going like, well, let's see Joe Biden and let's see Trump and
let's sort of, they're so like polar opposite. They should just have the election now is what
I'm saying. What do you think about Rogan hosting the debates? Is that going to happen? You see,
yesterday Trump asked him to. I don't envy that position that he's in because you really gotta watch
as long as you have both both guys that are in there because if it's just one guy they can they
they're just sort of using you and and joe's massive like influence but i but joe is smart
enough to handle that stuff but like i would be like definitely and if there's one dude i know
that would that and i'm saying if there's only one dude it is joe rogan who would be so over
prepared for that debate like he would be so he is someone who would shut down
who would shut down,
throw his phone away,
get on his computer,
close out the doors,
and focus until that debate happens.
I just would never,
I mean, obviously,
I would never want to be that person because I would just fuck it up
and everyone would hate me.
I would do the wrong thing.
I'd laugh at the inappropriate joke.
I'd giggle at whatever.
You know, I'd be,
I'd Billy Bush the fuck out of that.
But.
Billy Bush.
Billy Bush was just, Billy Bush the fuck out of that. But Billy Bush,
Billy Bush,
Billy Bush was babysitting a lunatic.
He's like,
Hey,
you know,
after that interview,
he's probably going like,
that guy was out of his fucking mind.
And he took the fucking hit.
He did.
He took the hit.
The other guy became president.
Nothing.
None of that made sense.
He took the fucking hit.
Like he's the Jimmy Fallon got shit for tousling Trump's hair.
They wanted to cancel him.
It's so funny because I am so Billy Bush.
Like I, you can say the most atrocious thing to me.
I go, sure thing, Bill.
I stopped short of that.
But I would say that when you're just sitting there.
And the thing about Trump too was he was a fucking cartoon character.
He was just sort of like, I mean, I know he's a real guy,
but he was just sort of this, he was this funny guy.
You know, he's like going bankrupt, and then he has a book,
The Art of the Deal.
He was just funny, and he put his name on everything,
and he was always talking about how much money he had and all this shit he was doing while he's like running a fucking,
he's doing a reality show.
It's like,
how do you have time to run all this shit and shoot a TV show?
The whole thing was just funny.
Like I,
I just felt like he was like,
it was like watching a wrestler and I was a huge fan of the guy.
So like,
I think if you were like interviewing him and he's saying all this wild shit you know if
you're billy bush your job is to get the fucking interview and just be like oh yeah yeah okay and
it's just like and you don't know like half of the shit that he's saying is he it's like is this what
this guy has to do to amp himself up you know i just walk up and grab pussies he sounded like he
sounded like dave chappelle doing fucking uh rick james hold pussies. He sounded like he sounded like Dave Chappelle doing fucking Rick James.
Hold my drink, bitch.
Like, I felt like he was in that mode.
He was like gassing himself up.
I don't know.
But I did think it was weird.
It's like, wait, so this guy.
You know, dude, Hollywood is so fucking phony.
And those fucking E! Entertainment people.
Hi, how are you doing? I'm Billy Bush. I mean, they don't is so fucking phony. And those fucking E! Entertainment people, hi, how you doing?
I'm Billy Bush.
I mean, they don't even look like real people.
So his whole thing is just like acting
like he's interested in these people
who are obsessed with themselves.
It's such a weird fucking job.
So I think he was just in E! Entertainment.
You know, you got your own bowling alley.
Ha ha, just.
Yeah.
And then you leave, you're just sitting there going like,
what the fuck was that?
That was a house of horrors in there.
Whatever.
Send me the check.
I got a mortgage too.
Let's go get a taco.
And you just fucking leave.
But then they take the audio.
He was,
he was,
he was co-signing on sexual assault.
It was just like,
I mean,
you know,
that's the weird thing is that if they got, you know,
say they wired your house, right?
Say someone broke into your house, wired it,
and heard you and Nia saying horrible shit about transgender people
or whatever.
You can just hear that on my podcast.
You can hear all kinds of horrible shit.
America would never question the guy that
wired your house they would attack you for saying that shit i know because i also hate when they
fucking go uh if they get like a private cell phone conversation and everybody's talking i so
want to be on a show when somebody asks about that i'd be like well i think that that's a private
phone conversation and i think it says a lot about you that you listen to it yeah i don't want people listening
to my phone calls or or repeating my text messages the way i joke and all of that shit so
if i don't want that then i should extend that same courtesy to other people that's why i never
watch a sex tape.
I never watch any of that.
Any of that shit that gets put out of there and the person's like, I'm mortified.
It's like, I 100% understand that.
And I don't fucking watch it.
It's none of my business.
I watch it, but then I just don't give a fuck.
Like Chris Evans tweeted,
texted out his picture of his junk recently.
And I was like, oh, I'll click the link.
And I saw it and I was like, okay, nice piece.
I was like, whatever. I mean, I really care I'm not I'm not appalled I don't none of my opinion
well you cared enough to click on it yeah I want to see his dick who is he uh he's a Captain America
he's been he's a working guy I mean by the way he's a big dude I was like I'm kind of curious
I don't know how I size up against Chris Evans. And I was like, I don't.
Nice piece, Chris.
And then I just went on.
I don't look.
I don't like.
I remember Brad Pitt.
They had a picture of Brad Pitt's dick in Playgirl.
I think when I was in New York, they had a picture of Brad Pitt naked in Playgirl.
I actually went and bought the Playgirl just to see his dick.
And I was like, that's a big dick.
I threw the magazine away,
but not like I just do it.
Just like,
like,
uh,
it's funny because Kat Denning,
uh,
had pictures released to her naked.
And she was like,
you know,
I wish that Hollywood,
I wish that the public would extend the same courtesy they do to Chris
Evans and his privacy to us females when we got naked.
And someone on set's like,
Kat Denning got pictures of her naked?
And another person's like, oh yeah, they leaked them.
And I just real quick went online, typed in Kat Denning nude.
By the way, absolutely beautiful.
Does not change.
I have a question.
If you send out a dick pic pic at what point are people laying off
what do you mean i i didn't i didn't think that they they extend a courtesy to a naked male
celebrity that's what she said that's fucking dude they just make up shit yeah i i literally
friend it was all day for two days oh i, I'm not. No, no, no.
Meaning it definitely, they definitely didn't extend the courtesy.
I'm agreeing with you.
Oh, okay.
They did not extend the courtesy.
I know.
It's just like, I just feel like that's an easy.
Do you remember like for a while there, if you got caught saying something racist,
you just, you somehow got to say I'm an alcoholic and I get to go to rehab now?
Like, I am singing We Are The World when
I'm sober, bro. You get a couple of beers in me next thing you know, I'm in a Klan meeting.
And I'm like, how did this happen? Like, that was like a legit excuse for a second. This bullshit
that women just keep doing where they, it starts with that stupid thing that if a woman does it,
she's a bitch. If a guy does it, was they respect him it's like it's like nobody likes getting treated like shit if your boss is a guy
and he's a dick you want to you want to fucking kill him you want him to get fired you want his
marriage to fall apart nobody's sitting there going like you know what he told me to go fuck
him myself but god damn it i respect him you don't you hate the guy yeah i don't think
there's any courtesy i i don't this sounds silly but like i don't not that i don't extend the
courtesy to someone if they're naked i'm curious but i'm not like retweeting it reposting it and
starting a website to it i think maybe that's where they you know when women do it, dudes set up websites like the fappening,
and they're like, these are cat,
like I'm going to monetize cat denning naked.
Right.
Well, I mean, but there's two sides to that.
There's also women like that go through their lives
without ever paying for a drink.
So I don't care how good looking you are as a guy,
you're paying for your own drink. So I don't care how good looking you are as a guy, you're paying for your own drink.
So disadvantages to women beauty, it's not all disadvantages. Dude, I am just so fucking sick.
People have to stop telling people what their experience is like when they're not them,
especially if you're bitching about your own experience yeah and and one part of that is
don't fucking talk for me while i talk for you it's like no it's like you have no idea
what you you have as much idea of what it's like to be a guy as i have an idea what it's like to be
a woman yeah thank god you said yes yeah no no i i mean it's the truth i i think what's interesting is i
was like if i was cat denning and i didn't want people to google me naked i wouldn't spoken up
again when chris chris whatever his name is came out naked i would have been like oh yeah that
sucks that happened to me i might i i show my dick i'm almost certain i show my dick in my new netflix series
i'm i can't remember i haven't seen the final cut but i'm certain i'm naked a couple times
in rough cuts that i saw and it is not an impressive dick and that's where kat denning
is like i'm like please speak up for me please Please extend that courtesy to me.
Do not screen grab and share a picture of that dick
because it does not look good.
I really believe,
I don't want to read somebody else's emails.
I don't read their text messages.
I don't need to hear their phone.
I don't have that J. Edgar Hoover
fucking weirdo curiosity thing about me.
I really believe in people's privacy. I really
think that that it's their own thing. And if they say I'm mortified and blah, blah, blah, I just go,
I understand that I would be mortified too. Why would I do that? Like as much as an,
of an asshole that I am, Bert, I am not like mean or vindictive. Like I don't like want,
I mean, I've obviously as a human being, I've said shit that's hurt people, but like, I never like deliberately go out and would be like,
oh, if I do this, this is going to make you've expressed that this is going to make you feel
bad. I'm going to do that. I mean, I did that when I was a kid. You know what I mean? I got
bullied. I bullied some kids and it was part of growing up. It's like, all right, now it's my
turn to pick on somebody smaller, but then you become become an adult and what just amazes me is how a bunch
of adults are acting like a bunch of bullies name calling okay chad okay brad okay karen okay boomer
i mean twitter has just fucking jumped the shark with all of that shit uh you know it's funny
there's a there's a video of a woman. I think they call her
California Queen. Have you seen it,
Andrew?
I knew at this point
you knew better than to ask me.
Have you seen it, Andrew?
It is a video of a woman on
Spirit Airlines, a black woman,
kind of
losing her shit a little bit
and saying everything that is horrible is, that is horrible,
but that she's ever wanted to say to white people on a plane as they're escorting her off.
And I know that, I know that, uh, brand wise, everyone assumes that I will, I would, I should
point out that she was a racist. She was, but, and that she was unfair, which she was uh racist she was but and that she was unfair which she was but for whatever reason
bill and i this is what i i this is why i made me giggle it reminded of me of you in philly
is this woman starts i at one point i was like please turn the plane please turn them so they
start cheering for you because i would have started cheering for her because she threw every fucking car money's worth did you ever see that movie sexy beast when they
kick ben kingsley's character off the plane that's what i'm thinking of i hope this plane crashes
that's my favorite one she is i mean she you know obviously people see it i think people are
outraged or whatever i don't know but whatever reason, I noticed that the flight attendant did shove her.
It wasn't unreal.
She did kind of shove her.
And this woman snapped.
And then this other white chick turned and said something to her.
And she was like, no, this is 2020.
Your white privilege is done.
I'm a California queen. you got the recessive gene
I got the dominant gene I can make white people you can't make black I mean it was I wanted her
to win that airplane so bad if I had been there I would have started going preach like I would
have just I wanted that so bad I wish I hope someone would take that video and
edit it so that it turns into that Bernie Mac set where I ain't scared of you motherfuckers
yeah it's unfortunate dude the way the way people are it's just people I'm telling you man this whole
social media thing 24-hour news, it's turned us all into
Hatfields and McCoys. And like, I'm 50 years old, dude. I've never seen it like this. I've never
seen it this fucking divided, but there also wasn't all of these ugly moments being videotaped back then so they were probably happening um but like uh yeah it's it's a uh
i don't know i i think i i'm hoping we're gonna come out of it i just think that we're just sort
of the guinea pigs i always equate it to when they lit off the atom bomb that one time and
they just had the troops walk towards it just to see the effects and so you know of course they
all died but like i just feel like that's where we are with,
that's where we are with social media
and 24 hour news network and all of that type of shit.
It's so funny that you're not-
Good for her, man.
Good for her.
She went down swinging and-
Went down swinging.
You got to see the video.
And I'm sure there's a bunch of white people.
What white people love to fucking do
is act like it's a level playing field.
Yeah.
And be like, if I did that,
I would lose my job.
And it's like,
okay, great.
Do you want her job opportunities?
As a female
and as a black person,
the fuck out of here.
Yeah.
That whole,
and that's like another thing too
where white,
racist white people
try to act like
they don't understand
what black athletes
are protesting.
You know,
stand up and respect the flag.
It's like,
no matter how they protest,
they're going to find a fucking reason why they shouldn't be doing it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's funny that you don't drink because every time I do a podcast with you,
I want to have a cocktail after I get done.
Like something about being around you makes me giggle.
And then I go,
man,
I want to get,
I want to,
I want to open a bottle of wine and just start Googling jeep grand cherokees or the grand wagoneers like i want
now i want to smoke this blunt like a cigar sit in my room close the blinds and fucking googling
uh google uh videos of of 1950s flyboys like i don't know what it is about you and rogan are
interesting guys because you
guys have interests that are outside of like all my interests kind of revolve around the industry
or the business or or like self-serving shit like running you know like you guys that's what's cool
it's like joe's got joe's got one of those uh those badass fucking broncos the old school ones
oh yeah i've seen it.
That gray one.
Yeah, it's beautiful.
So beautiful.
And that's what you're talking about.
Now I'm thinking, God damn it.
I want to get – how am I 47 and I never even knew about this shit?
Dude, I didn't know shit about cards.
I always liked them, but I didn't know shit until I came out to California.
I just would be walking down the street and I just –
I saw so many just –
like if you were talking about collecting football cards, like the unfamous ones are like called common cards.
Like there's so many common car automobiles out here.
Like I saw a Chevy Citation.
Those do not exist on the East Coast as far as where I was living.
I saw the Pontiac T1000, Pontiac's version of the Chevy Chevette.
I saw like,
you'll see like a fucking Ford Escort GT,
an 88 Ford Escort GT.
How many of those did they make?
And this thing still exists.
Those are the ones that like blow my mind
where I'm like,
oh my God,
I remember that.
I saw the Datsun B210, one of the ugliest fucking cars ever made.
I saw one of those sitting out.
It looks like a fucking doorstop with wheels on it.
Do you know what Snoop and I were talking about the other night?
Which I wonder if you remember.
Do you remember football pencils?
Yeah.
Oh.
All of that shit was so huge.
And if you had one
yeah dude i remember we went to like uh herman's sporting goods or something and i got i got two
football jerseys they were basically baseball shirts that were sort of jersey material one of
them said cowboys and was number 12 it was was Roger Starback. And then I had another one.
I forget what the other one was.
And kids used to be like, thought they were the coolest things ever.
My older brother had the number 14, Steve Grogan, the red one with the white numbers.
Who, by the way, Cam Newton, 75 yards rushing,
is the most rushing by a Patriots quarterback since Steve Grogan in 1977.
I remember Steve Grogan.
I remember having to think about some of the guys we had other than Doug
Flutie and that dude Bishop.
None of them could really run.
Doug Williams.
No,
Doug,
no,
Doug Flutie.
And then we had,
I'm saying,
I always forget his first name.
He was mobile,
but like football wasn't ready.
No.
You know, for the black quarterback running style.
Amazing too when you watch, what's his name, for the Ravens.
So, did you see him yesterday?
No, but I was watching, what was that?
I watched the Patriots and I watched the Buccaneers.
God.
All right, we should probably wrap this up.
I'll talk to you next week before you go out on the road, right?
Dude, I'm telling everybody, watch highlights of Denver Broncos
had the first black quarterback, Marlon Briscoe.
Look that guy up.
You'll see today's NFL in the mid, the late sixties.
And he fucking crushed it and threw for 300 yards,
ran all over the goddamn field was fucking great.
And the next season,
not only did they,
did he,
was he not the starting quarterback?
Couldn't compete for it.
They drafted some white kid and he ended up getting shipped off to Buffalo and
became a,
a wide receiver.
And forever I've had his football card.
And I just thought he was just, you know, one of those players that, you know,
played in the league for a few years and that was it.
And then I found out just through looking at old AFL stuff that this guy was an incredible quarterback.
He lives right down in Long Beach.
I think they tried to do that to Warren Moon.
And I always look at like Warren Moon.
Yeah, he had to go to the CFL and become a great CFL quarterback
and then come down to the NFL and still do Hall of Fame numbers
when he was like 30 years old and on.
I remember Warren Moon, I watched something on Warren Moon
and he talked about them moving him to wide receiver
and he said, no, I'm a quarterback.
And I remember thinking, I never have had that.
If they said – it's that Sylvester Stallone gene where you go,
hey, we want to make Rocky, but we want to put Tom Selleck in that role.
And he's like, this is my movie.
And they're like, well, it's not going to get made with you in it.
And he's like, this is my movie.
And then I wonder how many of those guys just never got their movie made.
Yeah, when you go all in, in dude you don't always win the pot
but like yeah i understand you really respect people like that so yeah um all right dude this
is a fun podcast dude this is a really fun talking about shit that you want to get but you can't
because you're married that's a whole podcast within the podcast. We should have people send in, married guys start sending in shit.
The bit's called, If I Wasn't Married.
Oh, that's a brilliant fucking segment.
If I wasn't married, what I'd get.
Yeah, and I just want to start seeing,
because you know there's guys out there that would get like some fucking
literally like just completely different shit,
like an industrial level, like restaurant level fucking smoker.
And I'd invite my entire graduation class from my high school.
Everybody hashtag, hashtag Bill Burtt if they're going to reply,
if they're going to tweet out anything.
I was working with, I want to say.
I like that.
Hashtag Bill Burtt.
If I wasn't married dot dot dot hashtag
bill burt and then just send a picture tweet out a picture there was a comic i hope i'm getting
this right i'm almost certain i am his name is mike merriweather and we were working in
dayton together and no not in dayton in toledo together and he was going through a divorce right
and we were having lunch and he was i think he was by the way i, right? And we were having lunch. And he was, I think he was, by the way, I apologize to Mike if I'm not getting this perfect.
But I said to him, you know, man, you ever just think like, fuck, I'm a grownup.
Like, I should have a four-wheeler.
And his eyes lit up.
He's going through divorce.
He goes, I've always wanted a four-wheeler.
And I was like, yeah.
And he goes, no, you know what?
Fuck this.
I'm not married anymore.
I could just buy a four-wheeler if I want. And I said, yeah, you can buy a four-wheeler. And he goes, I'm getting a fucking four-wheeler, yeah. And he goes, no. You know what? Fuck this. I'm not married anymore. I could just buy a four-wheeler if I want.
And I said, yeah, you can buy a four-wheeler.
And he goes, I'm getting a fucking four-wheeler, man.
Like, I'm going to get a fucking four-wheeler.
See that, though?
That's that shit is women sit there and bitch.
They don't see what they do to us.
That guy is literally institutionalized.
Like, he was outside of jail still feeling like he was in his cell.
Yeah.
And it took you saying that to be like wait a minute
i'm earning money this is my money i want to do this yeah now i'm not shitting on my wife because
my wife lets me do a lot of stuff but like if you're in a bad marriage they always make it
seem like you know it's a chick so he's in the burning bed situation like when did they ever
made a fucking miniseries about a guy in a bad fucking marriage,
and he gets out of it,
rather than burning her to death,
he just goes out and buys the four-wheeler he always wanted.
And it's called The Cunt.
The Burning Cunt.
The Burning Cunt.
And it's just a guy who's just brow beaten by a fucking bitch.
We should write,
we got to change the name,
but we should just,
as a goof,
we should go in and pitch that.
We should write a treatment.
And it's about a guy in an abusive marriage.
And all he wants to do is get out and buy a four wheeler just to look at their faces when we're fucking pitching.
And we'll change the name of the title.
It's just called the C word. And the poster of the name of the title. It's just called The C Word.
And the poster of the movie has a woman's face
that just looks like a gun.
And it's called The C Word.
Well, let's start off.
Listen, I know this is coming off harsh,
but I really believe it's high time that your network
address the fact that cunts exist.
Yeah.
We have this.
Look at this script as a bridge towards some sort of male following
on your channel um all right dude i gotta get running here my kid's gonna be up here
bill bill here's what we do we we pitch it like don draper where we make her a powerful cunt
that like that's the bad guy like dexter and it's it's a cunt you love
well that's that would be their industry note.
Yeah.
But isn't he like overbearing?
And isn't he like not buying the four-wheeler because of his own insecurities and inferiority?
They'd take the knees out of it.
They would.
And then at the last second, they would turn the cunt to the guy.
And then the chick would be, I don't know.
They'd do something like that.
All right.
Anyways, we got to wrap it up here.
All right, everybody.
Thank you for listening to another wonderful episode of The Bill.
Bert.
Pod.
Cast. Thank you.
