The Joe Rogan Experience.
Showing my day, Joe Rogan podcast my night, all day.
Sweet baby Jesus.
Tony Hinchcliffe is in the house today.
Oh yeah.
Tony Hinchcliffe, how's your life?
Great man, having fun and kicking butt.
Kicking butt? I hardly believe people when they say kicking butt.
You say I'm kicking ass, I'll take you seriously. You say kicking butt, I'm like when they say kicking butt you say I'm kicking ass I'll take you seriously
you say kicking butt I'm like what are you doing
partying with old ladies
beating them at things
how are you kicking butt
just staying busy
it's my favorite thing to do
is to stay busy
what about kicking butt
well you know what
I'm going to rephrase it.
I've been kicking ass.
There you go.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
I appreciate that.
I appreciate also all the people that have sent comments,
pro and negative, about the new sci-fi TV show.
I appreciate all your input. I think this is a rare time where people get to give input about things they see online,
whether it's a stand-up comedy show or a TV show like this show or anything.
It's important that people get to talk about stuff and tell me what sucks.
I want to know.
And it's not perfect.
No shows are perfect, man.
It's hard.
It's hard to do a television show that's perfect.
It's also hard to do a television show like this where you're squeezing hours of information and hours of conversations into like 40 plus minutes but one of the things
that i've found is that people are so fucking attached to the shit they believe they're so
attached and what the big one that people are mad at me now is chemtrails because uh we had an
episode that kind of debunk chemtrails and it didn't debunk all chemtrails this is what people need to understand
it and this is really important first of all i don't work for the government but if i did work
for the government i probably wouldn't tell you but i don't i don't i'm a fucking i give a come
on pot smoking fucking cage fighting commentator i'm not working for the government all right stop
it don't be silly but You would be the perfect person.
The perfect shill.
What people are seeing for the most
part when you see these contrails,
these trails behind jets that
become artificial clouds,
the way it's been explained to me by
not just one, but numerous scientists
is that when
jet engines pass through
various levels of condensation,
it creates different effects.
And if a jet engine passes through sky that has enough condensation,
it will literally change the temperature of the sky,
stir it up, and create a cloud.
And it's a lingering cloud behind the jet.
And if you're looking at it,
it looks like someone's spraying artificial clouds. And you get this feeling like it, it looks like someone spraying artificial clouds.
And you get this feeling like, oh my God, they're spraying clouds. I saw them and I saw some of the
documentaries on, and there was quite a bit of time before I was looking at it. I was like,
that doesn't make sense. But is it possible that they're really spraying artificial clouds out of
all these planes? And then you talk to people that tell you that these are military planes,
that this is a constant geothermal engineering exercise.
But then when you find out that it is possible to put a jet engine
through various levels of condensation and create these clouds,
like scientifically proven, 100%, you've got to go, okay, well, that's 100%.
If that's 100%, is there a way to tell when they're going to leave contrails and when they're not?
It turns out there is.
There's a NASA website.
You go to the NASA website.
It shows you where there's condensation, where there will be contrails, and it's for pilots so they can see better.
It's for people that are, like, trying to observe the sky.
There's, like, a bunch of reasons why they monitor this shit.
They know when contrails are going to exist and when they're not.
In fact, in 1942, the government was trying to figure out what the fuck was going on because they just first started having planes involved in World War II.
And they put out a paper on what they called persistent condensation trails.
And that is these lines that were behind these planes.
And their conclusion was that it's a natural part of what happens to the atmosphere when a plane flies by and that sometimes they last and sometimes they don't based on how much moisture is in the atmosphere. 1942 they did this. So this
is something that has been scientifically able to be explained for a long time. That said, now this
is where everybody gets crazy. I'm sure the government or let's just say people that are evil,
let's not just say the government because it's probably not even the government now.
It's probably the government of the past,
which you can't blame the people now.
You can blame them on a lot of shit,
but you can't blame them for shit that happened in the 50s.
For sure, people have sprayed things out of planes.
100%.
It's definitely happened.
For sure, you're dealing with a power structure
that values money over certain aspects of humanity.
For sure, 100%.
But we've got to be honest about what's
happening and what's not happening. Southwest is not spraying artificial clouds. They're
accidentally making them in a natural byproduct of a jet engine passing through condensation.
But it doesn't mean that people haven't done evil shit in the past. It just means that's what that
is. And people are getting so fucking mad at me
on Twitter and calling me a shill
and a government agent and thinking that somehow
or another I'm changing
the truth because I want to protect
myself or something.
I think people are looking for a reason,
something to blame the lack
of health and feeling good
on. And I think that
they do that and
then they roll it they blame it on the chemtrails and they roll into McDonald's
and eat five Big Macs and wonder why they're feeling shitty they think
they're spraying stuff down on them have you ever seen the one the video with
Prince on the Prince sitting with Dick Gregory pull it up Prince talks about
chemtrails Prince is talking about chemtrails in the hood Prince Prince the Prince. Prince, Prince, one of the baddest rock and rollers of all time.
And he's talking about chemtrails in the hood when he was growing up.
And it sounds like he's singing a song.
It's almost lyrical, the way he looks at it.
It's like, sometimes it snows in April.
I thought it was purple rain.
Yeah, the video is really quite fascinating.
Did you find it?
Yeah.
Okay, play this bitch.
Like Jack?
Like Jack?
Oh, it's not Dick Green.
I'm sorry.
Well, because I knew I was right.
We talked about this in our very first interview and conversation together.
We talked about this in our very first interview and conversation together.
It's obvious now that artists are supposed to own their master recordings.
Okay, this isn't the part.
There's a part where he talks about chemtrails.
Oh, it says Prince Dick Gregory. You started to see a whole bunch of phenomena of chemtrails.
phenomena of chemtrails. And you know, when I was a kid, I used to see these trails in the sky all the time. And so that's cool. A jet just went over. And then you started
to see a whole bunch of them. And the next thing you know, everybody in your neighborhood
was fighting and arguing and you didn't know why. Okay? And you really didn't know why.
I mean, everybody was fighting.
So he started riffing about the chemtrails.
And he started to say things that hit home so hard and I would recommend that everybody try to get what he said
online or wherever and try to get a copy of it and just listen to it.
Because I was so moved that I had to write this song.
He wrote a song about chemtrails?
Really?
When you leave, with all the hassle.
What is this?
That's a different video. That's actually Dick Gregory. What is this?
That's a different video.
That's actually Dick Gregory.
That's the guy who brought the Zapruder film to the Geraldo Rivera show,
Dick Gregory, the older guy.
He was a stand-up comedian, like an activist. He brought the Zapruder film to a Geraldo Rivera show
and showed it on television to President Kennedy getting shot for the first time.
It was actually in the 1970s, long after his death.
He died in 1963.
They showed it on TV, I think in like 72 or something like that.
72, 73.
Might have been even later than that.
Yeah, they showed the actual, it might have been 75.
Yeah, they showed the actual gunshot to the head on national television.
They even showed a close-up on it.
And Geraldo Rivera was the conspiracy theorist back then.
Geraldo Rivera, who now works for Fox
News, back then he was saying
the shot clearly comes
from the front as you see his head
snap back into the left. Like, wow.
It's interesting. It really does.
It is tough to argue that.
I mean, I'd love to see that broken
down. Like, how do you explain his
head going from front to back?
How crazy is Prince on chemtrails? Oh my goodness.
You listen to that and you're like, wow. And all of a sudden
everyone's fighting and I couldn't figure out why. When I was a kid, there was
only a few airplanes. Then as the airplane business got bigger, there was more airplanes
in the sky. Well, what he's saying
actually kind of flies in the face of the
traditional chemtrail theorists.
They believe that these
long lines in the sky
didn't exist in the past
and that they're fairly recent.
But there's like photos
from like the 80s and shit
people took where there's
these lines in the sky
that look like artificial clouds.
And it's just part of the process
of flying a jet.
I mean, it does create a cloud, though.
And people are like, these clouds are blanking up the sky.
It was really clear until they flew by.
That is true.
It does happen.
That is real.
Yeah, and it goes along with what you're saying about the planes making it
because planes have gotten bigger and bigger as the years have gone on.
They didn't always have a 747 or 757, you know.
So as these are getting bigger, of course, the chemtrails will be too, it seems at least.
Well, there's, you know, the other thing that's real is that it changes the temperature of the Earth.
That is a fact.
In fact, the temperature changed quite a bit after 9-11.
Do you remember what it was like when 9-11 happened and then all of a sudden no one was flying for like two weeks?
Yeah.
Well, it changed the temperature of the Earth.
Forget if it heated it up or cooled it down.
Let's see.
Temperature changed 9-1-1.
Let's see.
I would say cooled down.
What would you say?
Yeah, I would say that.
Yeah, I think so, too.
Opposite reaction, right?
Right.
Okay, let's see.
Temperature changed after 9-1-1.
Air traffic affects the climate.
Yeah.
Yeah, let's see this.
Oh, yeah.
And it seems like the...
I know the purity of the air definitely changes
temperatures. And then everybody's
tears.
It even says it in here. Listen to this.
During a three-day commercial flight
hiatus when artificial clouds
known as contrails
all but disappeared. So they're like
admitting on CNN
that these planes create artificial clouds like
no one's tried to hide it this isn't like some crazy conspiracy that people were wondering about
but artificial clouds known as contrails all but disappeared the variations in high and low
temperatures increased by 1.1 degrees interesting each day said meteor meteorological researchers that's interesting i don't know if
that's i don't know if that means anything though it's so hard to tell because like the temperature
fluctuates by more than a degree every day anyway and if it goes up i mean it could be i mean i'm
an idiot but i'm reading this and i'm going are you sure anyway the point is is, even in this CNN paper from 2002, it says artificial clouds known as contrails.
I think when people are looking at them, they think it's something that didn't happen before.
They're like, oh, these weren't there before.
It doesn't mean that people haven't sprayed shit out of planes.
But what it does mean is that what you're seeing is not what you think is happening
Most of the time when you see this spray what you're seeing is a fucking cloud That's what happens when it goes through the jet
But if it was a spray it wouldn't look like that if it was aluminum and barium
Which is like what they're claiming the government for some reason is spraying in the sky
It would be more like smoke signals or like uh those things behind a plane a
smoke rider it would linger in the sky but those are those are heavy metals those are particles
even if they're nanoparticles they're gonna fall they weigh something it's not gonna be like
moisture in the air which just lingers like a cloud because we know about clouds we don't know
about shit that like sits up in the clouds but it's actually aluminum it just floats up there
that's not even that's not even possible it would fall it would fall out of, but it's actually aluminum. It just floats up there. That's not even possible.
It would fall.
It would fall out of the sky.
It's not the same thing.
So I understand people's mistrust of the government.
I understand that people are, but you can't, when something's explainable, you got to explain it.
And it doesn't remove all the other possibilities and nefarious doings.
But it does explain one thing that people are trying to point in the wrong direction.
And the problem is if you,
if you point in that direction and then people can prove that that's not
what's going on,
but you won't let it go,
then they're not going to listen to you when it comes to other shit either.
You know,
they're going to,
they're going to think,
Oh,
you're that guy that believes the shit that's kind of wacky.
Right.
And this is one of those things. It's a one man it's really tricky yeah because it looks like
they're fucking spraying artificial clouds right and in in effect they are making artificial clouds
that is a fact the guy in the show that one of the craziest moments was that he um had this uh
test that he did this water test and he showed that there's aluminum in the water but you look at the test results the like the from the lab and it says sludge so like and i go well you so so it's got
dirt in it no it's just water but it says sludge like the test results say sludge and all sludge
has aluminum in it because all dirt has aluminum in it so it's not testing water from aluminum that
fell from the sky you're testing water for having dirt in it, which always has aluminum in it.
That was a good owning, by the way.
I didn't want to own them.
I wish these guys had approached some of these things
with a little bit more of an open mind
and not just go one way or the other.
But that's one of the things we're seeing
over and over again on this show.
People just get an idea in their head and they just fucking run with it right i thought
that that little uh town or whatever city that the sound was coming from i thought that was one of
the most interesting things uh about the episode from yesterday yeah but but did they even did you
even figure out if it was coming from that no one no one can tell no one can tell did you even figure out if it was coming from that island? No one can tell. No one can tell.
Did you hear it?
No, I didn't hear it.
The people that experienced it,
they said it was really bad a couple of years ago.
It got better, but occasionally it still happens.
It's like this weird hum that's in this town,
and no one knows what the hell's causing it.
Whoa.
Yeah, it's like...
Like lost.
Like it rattles your windows and stuff,
and it's in this area of canada called windsor
ontario it's like well documented there's there's terabytes of this hum online nobody could figure
out what the hell it is and some people believe it's there's a lot of like crazy conspiracies
one of them being that it's a harp repeater station harp is this gigantic antenna array
that's in alaska they send radio signals up into the ionosphere.
But, you know, who knows what the hell it is.
There's another thing to take into consideration that nobody was willing to consider, but it is possible,
that they dig under the ground around there for salt, you know, and they're salt mining.
And they say it wasn't, you know, that wasn't happening while the sound was going on.
But, you know, I don't know.
How the fuck do you know?
It's a weird thing, though.
It's all these people experiencing it.
It's not just a couple of cuckoo heads see dragons.
There's a lot of people, and they record it.
Wow.
Yeah, it's pretty freaky.
That one guy said he had seven terabytes.
I wish you had challenged him on that.
No, no, he does.
That's a lot of audio.
Oh, he does.
He records that shit for the entire night.
Right.
He'll set it up. He has a recorder, and he'll does. He records that shit for like the entire night. Right. You know, he like, he'll set it up.
He has like a recorder and he'll like set an MP3 recorder up and tape through the night.
Yeah.
I really believe him because he has, he's been following this and being an activist
on this shit for, can you imagine if you live there, man, and all of a sudden your fucking
windows are rattling in the middle of the night?
Yeah, I wouldn't move the fuck out.
Well, they don't have any money.
I wouldn't move too if you had some money, but if you don't have any money, man, oh, shit.
And you're stuck there, and you can't go to sleep.
And then you have to get to go to work in the morning,
and you're fucking exhausted because your house has been humming.
Windsor's a pretty interesting town,
because that's where everybody from Ohio and Michigan goes
to get drunk when they're 18,
because you can drink there before you're 21.
Oh, really?
And gamble.
Jamie, have you been there?
Yep.
So it's like you go there, and you fast forward three years of your life and you can do anything
you want at 18 if you just go over a bridge.
Yeah.
Well, Detroit is fucking crazy, man.
If you've never been to Detroit before, I recommend going just to see the $39 houses.
There's houses for sale for $39, dude.
You can buy a house for $39.
They told us we could buy a house for $500,
and I thought they were fucking crazy.
And then someone from the Rogan board
found a house for $39.
Wow.
Jesus.
Dude, they just went bankrupt.
The entire city went bankrupt.
It almost seems like it's almost like an Apple stock
at the very beginning.
Like, we should buy all these $39 houses,
you know, like, while they're this low. You low you know what man it might not come back in your lifetime
it might be what we're seeing might be when people find the ruins of ancient cities in the past
sometimes cities just go so far down they never come back sometimes cities stick around forever
like rome you could drive by the fucking colosseum today. Somehow or another, they managed to keep some form of a society around in that area for all these
years. It changed, it morphed, but there's still people there. There's still a society,
but fucking Detroit is close. It's close, man. It's 47% illiteracy rate.
47%?
47% illiteracy rate.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, it's crazy. I mean, it is one of the craziest places in the world, and it's in America.
It's a place that used to thrive.
Think about, like, the 50s and the 60s, like, the roaring times for the auto industry.
They're making fucking 69 Chevys, and everybody's making money, and there's union workers, and everyone's getting paid well.
And then all of a sudden, somewhere along the line, GM's like, we're out of here, dog.
We're going to take our shit to Mexico.
We're going to make cars in China.
You guys cost too much money.
We're tired of this shit.
And they pull out and it's catastrophic.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, you seen Roger and Me?
The Michael Moore?
Yeah.
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, it's all about that.
It's all about Flint, Michigan.
It's all about watching these towns implode when the jobs aren't there anymore.
The jobs literally pull out of the community and poof, that's it.
They're gone.
And then everybody's like, oh, my God, how do I eat?
And it's fucking crazy.
That's going on right now.
The city where I'm from just got ranked.
There was an article I tweeted.
It's the number one most dilapidated city
or something like that.
And it used to be the number one steel producing city
for the entire world.
And they built it there because it was so cloudy
that back in the day,
satellites couldn't see through clouds.
So they built it all in Youngstown, Ohio,
which has the weird lake effect.
So there's always clouds over where I'm from, pretty much.
And so the
whole steel industry was there and then it uh it's nothing i mean it there is nothing there now
that's incredible it's really wild it was a big big big steel producing city and uh and mafia town
and they got rid of the mafia in the 90s and steal like the 70s.
Super Mafia Town.
Yeah.
That's actually what my parents,
my parents were in that business before.
What business were they in?
They did some shady stuff.
They did some family things.
Yeah.
Almost everybody that my parents knew as well,
they knew them from being in some kind of business.
My mom, for example, ran numbers.
Number running is a form of racketeering and illegal lottery.
She would be the center person of this entire thing.
All the people that would call in their numbers would call her.
That's just what she did.
Wow, that's incredible.
Yeah.
My grandmother went to jail for numbers running.
Really?
Yeah, she apparently got caught.
What she would do was she would be like the go-between or something.
She would move things.
It was like a job, I guess.
And they arrested her, and she didn't want to rat anybody out,
so she spent like six months in jail.
Wow.
Yeah, I didn't even know about it until
I was like in my twenties. You know, my mom never told us about it. Yeah. It's interesting. She had
no choice but to tell me because when I was a kid, you know how when you're a kid and the phone
rings, you try to pick it up. Hello. Well, people would ask for, uh, for Gina and my mom's name's
joy. So when they're like, hello, is Gina, is Gina available? No, Gina lives here. Sorry. And
I remember one day I told my mom, I go, mom, people keep calling asking for Gina.
She goes, what are you doing with these phone calls?
What do you mean?
Because obviously she was missing business.
I was just being a little kid being helpful.
No, Gina here.
Sorry.
Oh, wow.
And so very young, I had to realize what she was doing because also she was on the phone
a lot and she would be repeating back these numbers to people.
what she was doing because also she was on the phone a lot and she would be repeating back these numbers to people and there's like all this terminology and stuff like po and box and all
these different things like you want that straight or box which means like straight means you're
picking three numbers in a row like four six seven and box means you could have four six seven but if
it comes out seven four six or six four seven or whatever you in either way so there's all this
terminology so you'd hear on the phone three three, three, four, four, six,
because she would repeat back the numbers
that they just gave her to confirm.
So it's like unbelievable.
Wow.
Yeah.
So you grew up in that environment.
Did you ever see anything dangerous,
or was it just gambling-type stuff?
Nothing dangerous ever.
The closest thing that I had a weird feeling about when I was a kid was one time my dad came to visit because i lived with my mom so my
dad would just come in and visit sometimes and the weirdest thing was he came in came over one day
with a uh with a cast on with a cast on his hand and i'm like how'd you break your hand and i
remember my mom looking at him weird and him looking at her way i don't i still don't know
exactly what happened with the, with the broken hand,
but I mean,
I don't know.
It could have been like a punishment.
He could have beat somebody up.
He was,
he owned a restaurant,
uh,
at the time.
So it's not like he,
he didn't do,
he didn't.
And he wasn't the hands on guy at the restaurant.
Huh?
I don't know what,
how he broke his hand.
Yeah.
We're going to have to leave that one to suspicions.
Yeah. Yeah. It'd be nice to, leave that one to suspicions. Yeah.
Yeah, it would be nice to, at least he didn't, like, make something up,
like to fill in the blank to make the story better.
Right.
No, exactly.
Keep it real.
Yeah, isn't it weird when you really stop and think about how little our parents knew about the world?
Like, now that we live in this really strange place where we're finding out like you pretty
i mean you just ask your phone and it'll answer you almost any question you can come up with and
just think about growing up and having kids and living your whole life without that and you're
like my god like is that even society was that even civilization? Wow. Our poor fucking parents. It's unbelievable.
They were lucky they had phones.
Oh, yeah.
They really were.
There's apes.
I know.
The evolution of everything is crazy.
I just found out there's a high school district in L.A.
in which all the kids are getting iPads now,
so they upload all their information on the iPad,
and that's their only book. So now they're done with books,
and think about how many tons of pounds of books we carried on our shoulders as kids for no reason. There's generations to
come that will never know that feeling. They're going to look at us like, what do you mean you
were carrying books around? It doesn't make any tons of paper stacked on top. What is it? Why
would you do that? I don't get it as they scan through nothingness. You know what I mean?
I was thinking about that the other day, about how paper and books is just going to be this antique.
Well, are you starting to see some of these different phones that are coming out that allow you to answer and scroll and do things without actually touching the phone?
And that when you look away from the phone, it changes the way the phone behaves when you look at it.
I think the Galaxy S4 does that.
Yeah.
I think 3 also, where you can just wave your hand over to answer a phone call.
Does it, the 3 as well?
I don't know.
The 4 does, though.
There's a lot of weird shits happening,
with the ability to just conjure things up out of the air with your hands and your looks.
It just doesn't seem like a good idea,
because you'll be laying in bed and your phone rings
and you wave over it and now you just have a
video call and your dick's just in the
kitchen. That sounds like a problem for Brian
Redman. Yeah, exactly. If you sleep with your
dick next to your phone and you have that.
Pull your dick out every time the phone rings. Just on instinct.
Oh, are we doing this?
Oh, okay, we're doing this.
You want to do this.
I think that what I was getting at is that it's going to get weirder and weirder.
Like the human computer, human information interface is going to get weirder and weirder.
It's the who knows what the limit is.
It's going to be like some eye implant or something.
Oh, yeah.
Totally.
Something.
That'll see you scrolling through things.
Because there's going to be a point even where
wearing a lens
or something
is gonna be like
oh look at
that person's still
wearing the lens
well you ain't no balls
to get a fucking
operation buddy
right
you're afraid of a
neural implant
first they'll do
something to your eye
and then they realize
no you really gotta
get to the cerebral
cortex itself
right
so it'll be like
you'll be looking at
people like they
pierced their ears
did you get your
brain pierced
yeah just
coming right down the factory line at a baby ward, whatever those are called.
Yeah, Duncan and I were talking about this, and we both agree that there's going to come a time where you're probably not going to use your regular memory anymore.
That your regular memory will be replaced by some sort of internal digital storage, which can record everything you see in total real time hd right i mean that's pretty
pretty likely to be what we're dealing with in the future and then we're going to swap hard drives
and shit and i'm going to be able to watch 20 inch clip fuck it really is it's going to be like
it's going to be like the matrix how they just like upload information yeah it seems like it's
inevitable they've already figured out a way to um uh put artificial memories in a
mouse have you heard of that yeah yeah they figured out a way to do that to mice they figured out a
way to somehow or another install an artificial memory in a mouse and they also figured out how
to make a cat's tail move without uh actually like a man with a brain thing on can make a cat's tail
move wirelessly somehow or another?
I need to do that, man.
That sounds awesome.
It's fucking nuts.
I put it up on Twitter.
If you could find it, it was within the last day or two.
Maybe Jamie can help you.
The story is pretty fucking freaky.
The ability to control another thing.
Even if it's just a cat with your brain, what the fuck is going to happen in the future?
People are going to force people to walk into their houses and blow them and having your pet will
be a totally different experience like that would be like your warrior like all right cat go in the
kitchen see if there's anybody there like you're because if you can make the cat tail move totally
in 20 years you'll be able to control your cat so your animal your dog your pit bull or whatever
will now be like your weapon or like your hawk as in the old days where you had like like a pirate especially well you could kind of do that now if you train your dog
really well but you you might be able to control it with your mind and see through its eyes eyes
and feel its poop it's some game of thrones and then you would yeah that would be crazy and then
you imagine if you killed somebody with your dog and then there would be like some crazy legal
thing like it wasn't my idea the dog went fucking crazy okay i'm trying to control the dog with the brain i'm just not that good at it yet the dog
went crazy and killed the burglar okay i'm not a murderer or we're having a like an eagle yeah
having some kind of huge bird or a gorilla like you can control animals that'll be yeah well they
you can control a few animals to do a few things. Have you ever seen those videos of mongols?
This is the brain.
Harvard creates brain-to-brain interface allowing humans to control other animals with thoughts alone.
Wow.
Are you fucking kidding me?
You see the tail?
The tail's hooked up to this thing, and he figured out a way to make the tail move wirelessly.
So we can already have a cat's tail answer a galaxy 3 phone so it's it seems like it's just a matter of time before you're able to
control everything the cat does and then that'll be like version one and then eventually version
two will be you'll be able to see what the cat sees whoa it's. That is fucked up. Isn't that wild? That's what it's turning into.
Human beings just
wanting to be cats and stuff just because
they can't. Like the cat's like
hey where's this? Can I be a human?
It's so crazy. It's so crazy.
It's all so crazy.
It's weird. It's so crazy it's weird.
Because you wonder like where is this going?
And there's no way to know.
Well it seems like it is not going to stop.
It's just going to get more and more invasive, more and more.
You're going to be able to do all kinds of really strange things
within the next few years, or they're going to,
someone, whoever has that kind of technology.
Controlling a fucking cat's tail.
Jesus!
This is awesome.
Have you ever seen those videos of the Mongols that hunt wolves with eagles?
Uh-uh.
Holy shit, dude.
Golden eagles might be the most gangster animal on the planet
because they do not give two fucks about a wolf.
And they swoop down and kill a wolf with their talons.
I showed it to Steve Rinella.
He's a hunter he's got
that show meat eater he's unimpressed he said they were more coyote looking wolves they weren't the
biggest wolves in the world right which i'll give you that they're still fucking wolves right you
know bird think about that you weigh about 140 pounds tony hinchcliffe could you imagine if you
had to kill a 60 pound wolf with your fucking No. You have to tackle a wolf and then kill it with your face.
You know?
How the...
You know, an eagle weighs 25 pounds, and it does that.
Swoops in and jacks a fucking wolf with its face.
Clings onto the back of this thing, attacks it, and takes it out quick.
Watch this shit.
Watch this shit.
You got it?
No, I don't.
Pull it up.
Mongols hunt with eagles. It's going to trip you out, man. I watch this shit you got it no i know pull it up mongols hunt with eagles it's gonna trip you out man i watch this once and then what the eagle comes back to the mongol
yep kills the kills the wolf and then they use the wolf fur they buy their they take their furs
wow they make like hats out of them and shit i don't understand why the eagle
does that because they're a gangster they don't't give a fuck. Watch this shit. This is really trippy, man.
Look at this fucking bird.
This agent of death.
Soaring dinosaur
of death. Watch this.
Bam, bitch!
Just that wolf knows
it's coming, too. And it fucks him up
so quick. It just gets those
claws around its neck, and
it's a wrap within seconds.
Look at that heartless motherfucker. Watch this shit. The wolf's running. This poor wolf
is like, oh, you gotta be fucking kidding me. And this guy just lets this monster loose
off of his arm. And it knows exactly what to do the wolf is
running and that eagle just count the wolf was like oh fuck my life fuck my
life look at that thing man he goes on this. I love the Eagles.
Welcome to the hotel California. Watch this.
Bam, bitch!
Oh, man.
It just takes them out within seconds.
It's incredible how lethal
these things are.
That's wild. Look at those dudes.
What a dumb way to dress.
Silly hats. They can train an eagle to kill a wolf, but they're still wearing a Look at those dudes. What a dumb way to dress.
Silly hats.
They can train an eagle to kill a wolf,
but they're still wearing toilet paper rolls on their heads.
I guess it's cold as fuck there, though.
They probably need all that stupid shit on just to stay alive.
Just think of how much time it must take to train a fucking eagle to kill a wolf.
How many eagles did you let go and they never came back? Right.
How many eagles did you let go and be like,
bitch, I'm not killing that wolf. I don't even know that wolf.
Fuck you, man.
I'm flying south. It's cold up here.
I wonder if eagles just can't help themselves and when something is running, they just go get it.
I wonder if it's that.
They're such terrifying animals. I saw one the other day
in Seattle.
They have eagles up there.
It had something
in its hands.
It won.
Got something.
Some sort of fish
or something.
I've been noticing
a lot of parrots lately
in Burbank.
Just like mobs of parrots
like flying over my,
like 20 the other day.
And they're all green
with like the red.
It's like how Florida
has pythons loose
because people let them go.
Right.
In Burbank it's parrots.
I fucking hate my bird. Just open the window. people let them go. Right. In Burbank, it's parrots. Yeah. I fucking hate my bird.
Just open the window.
Get out, bitch.
Right.
There was a, my friend lives up here in Calabasas, and he has, he lives on, like, the place where
they film True Blood.
Like, it's this huge mansion type thing.
But he was talking about the other day how a tarantula somehow got, was in his, like,
he has the crazy, he lives on this crazy, like humongous thing
in the mountains.
So,
you know,
the Calabasas,
or Santa Monica Mountains.
And there's all these weird things
like,
like,
like lizards and snakes.
But he got,
had a tarantula
in his,
in his bedroom the other day.
And he's like,
I don't know how the fuck it got there.
Yeah,
there's tarantulas in California.
It's crazy.
You can get them anywhere in the LA area.
Like,
people that live in the Hollywood Hills,
you know when they have a problem
in the Hollywood Hills?
Rats. Yeah. Ew, really? I see tons in Burbank, you know when they have a problem in the Hollywood Hills? Rats.
I see tons in Burbank.
I know a story, I don't know if it's true,
but I'll tell it anyway,
about Sylvester Stallone apparently,
that someone went to Sylvester Stallone's house,
he had a house in the Hollywood Hills,
and he had a movie theater,
and he told them, he goes,
put your feet up when you're watching the movie
because we have rats.
Like, what?
Like, they couldn't get rid of the rats.
Like, the rats were so infested in the hills up there that you would have them like running through your
house sometimes they they run on the power lines outside like i'll sit out back and just see rats
running on the and then one time a rat came up and stepped on my foot or something like that and i
were you barefoot yeah oh my god i uh threw my laptop. It was like the first time I bought a new MacBook,
and I opened it up for the first time,
and I'm looking at it like, oh, look how nice and sexy this is.
Rat, right on foot, throws laptop up in the air, falls down.
No, it fell down.
Did it break?
No.
It luckily just landed fine.
Powerful build quality.
Yeah.
Powerful iPhone, Apple product pitch.
Yeah. Rats are fucking gross they've carried disgusting diseases too those fucks oh they the black plague came from uh rats carrying a tick i
think i think or a flea or something like that i think that's what it was right something like that
i think it was some sort of a parasitic thing that rats were carrying that bugs gave them
so gross.
I'm one of those people where like if I were to see a rat or a cockroach where I live,
I would just move.
Well, that's one of the realities of living in New York City.
You know, if you want to live in New York City, you're going to see roaches and you're going to see rats if you're paying attention.
When I lived in New York, there was one time I never lived in the city.
I lived in New Rochelle, which is like just outside the city, like outside of the Bronx,
little suburb, Westchester.
I parked my car at this gas station, and it was back when there was pay phones.
I didn't have a car phone.
I had to make a call.
I had to get out of the car.
So I'm making a call on this pay phone.
As my car is parked, I'm watching rats jump on top of the tires and climb up into the car.
I'm watching them.
And I'm like, what the fuck?
I mean, not one. Like, three,
four, five. They just kept doing it.
Looking for food. Like, the car parked, so they jumped on the back tire,
they're rolling over the top of the tire, they run under the car,
they ran up into the engine compartment,
and sometimes they just stay in the engine compartment and your fucking
fan tears them apart, because their stupid
heads are in there. And you start the car
up and you...
And fucking, you open up the hood
and there's just splatter everywhere
because some stupid rat got inside
of your fan. Yeah, man, they look
for food everywhere. They'll burrow
themselves into little tiny holes to try
to search for something that might be food.
That's yonkers.
That was in Manhattan. It was in New York City.
I'll never forget it.
I was just like, what the fuck?
And then when you find out that there's as many rats in New York City as there are people,
there's 7 million people in New York City.
So there's 7 million rats in New York City.
Imagine controlling those rats.
They really, they have a hard time.
I think a lot of them drowned in Sandy.
I think a lot of those underground layers and shit drowned
because Shane Smith did a video once right after Sandy,
a video about the possibility of these super storms increasing,
and a river of dead rats flowed by him as he was standing there talking.
It's like talking holy shit
ew
the thing that scared me when I moved here
was I lived in Burbank
when I first got here and the black widows
oh yeah
first it's like almost a normal spider
until you really look at that belly and you see that
red diamond thing
that's the part where you're just like this fucking thing
and it's interesting how nature sort of warns you.
Yeah.
Like, I've read things about snakes,
if you see, like, red, yellow, black.
And that spider, that red diamond,
I mean, if you look at it,
it really, it's like a warning sign.
Right.
Yeah, you're totally right.
It's incredible how nature does that stuff.
You know what else I saw recently is a thing about how butterflies,
if you look at butterflies that are around area where snakes are,
when their wings are up and they're just chilling,
most of them look like snakes.
If you look up a butterfly snake, it's unbelievable.
Wow, that makes sense.
So then any intruder that comes by is like, oh shit, a snake, instead of, ah, look at this pussy butterfly I'm about to eat.
That's interesting.
It's really incredible.
Yeah, it's weird when you see animals that have figured out how to mimic their environment.
Have you ever seen octopus or octopi that change their shape and their look to look exactly like their environment.
Wow, look at these crazy-looking butterflies.
That totally looks like a snake.
Right.
That's incredible.
Yep.
Oh, my God.
And that's what they do.
That's amazing.
Yep.
Wow.
Folks, if you're not, obviously, you don't watch, most people are listening.
What is the Google that you Google?
Butterfly snake.
Butterfly snake.
There's one that looks like these two fucking serpents.
Actually, several that look like it.
But they look like these two serpent heads right next to each other.
I mean, exactly.
The underside, it's all looks.
That corner one?
Oh, my God.
That's amazing.
Look at that.
That's incredible.
And now that you've seen this, by the way, you'll notice that in actually a lot of butterflies.
It's not necessarily a rare thing at all.
I'm pretty sure if they ever see a snake,
they're pretty much like, well, that's what I want to be.
That's amazing.
That is really amazing.
It looks just like it.
Now, look up octopus camouflage.
Octopus camouflage is really weird, man,
because they also think that
they don't just... Look at that fucking snake.
It looks like a snake.
We're looking at the tip of the butterfly's wing
that looks like a snake. I mean, it has an eyeball.
And it even has a nose.
It has a mouth.
It's a beautiful tattoo
of a snake. Yeah. And it's
the softest, most precious, easy
to kill animal in the world. A butterfly, of all the things. Yeah, they're like the softest, most precious, easy-to-kill animal in the world, probably.
A butterfly, of all the things.
Yeah, they're like man of mush.
I mean, they're softer than a fly.
They're a butter fly.
They're like a tissue fly.
Octopus or octopi can blend in with their surroundings,
and they also think that they use their ability to change shape on the outside,
the camouflage look.
They think they use that also to communicate, that it's not just busy.
It's incredible.
It's incredible.
We're looking at this octopus that's completely blended in with this white floor.
And there's also been ones that have eaten sharks.
They had a problem at this aquarium where their shark started missing.
And they would find, like, shark carcasses.
So they're like, what the fuck is going on?
What's eating a shark?
And so they watched this video.
They set up a camera.
See, there's a video of it brian see if
you can watch it if you can find it but it's they do it on a regular basis like apparently octopus
are smart as fuck or octupi and they set up this camera and um they watch this octopus just sit
there completely camouflaged and as his shark flies by. As it turned out, they were tragically mistaken.
Watch this shit.
Shark's got a gun!
It's Sharknado.
So you see this thing swimming. Watch this shit.
Like, the shark has no idea the octopus is there.
That is an evil-looking motherfucker.
White eyes.
White eyes completely camouflaged with this environment.
Just waiting for that motherfucker to get close.
Watch this.
It's like, bitch, I got you. Oh, my God. That's so bad-ass. It's like, bitch, I got you.
Oh, my God.
That's so badass.
That's incredible.
And, you know, they have, like, teeth, like little beaks on the end of their suction cups.
Yeah, it's like sharp, like little cat claws.
Yeah, they found giant ones in a fossil,
and that they believe it could possibly be evidence for a kraken.
The idea of a kraken is like an ancient mythology idea of a giant octopus that would take out ships and kill people.
And they always thought it was just mythology and horseshit.
And so they recently found these giant fucking suction cups in fossils.
And then they realized, oh giant fucking suction cups and fossils.
And then they realized, oh, yeah, if octopus die, they don't live behind anything.
It's not like they're not like a person leaves behind a skull.
Octopus, they're mollusks. They're this just movable, you know, sort of weird, flexible material.
And all they have is like a beak.
And that gets eaten by things like really quickly
so if they die like you don't find shit but somehow or another someone died and the imprint
of its suction cups left a mark on the floor and they're enormous and so in looking at these they're
like oh my god like this was a massive octopus like something that was just impossibly large.
Oh wow, look at this.
The octopus got this cat's face.
The cat got gangster
and the octopus locked on its face
and it's fucking this cat up.
Look at this.
Oh my god, it's like alien.
Like an alien face hugger.
It's an octopus.
Is that a vine?
Is that what that is?
It's a gif.
A gif.
A gif.
That's hilarious.
Yeah, cat.
Cat, you think you're clever?
Octopuses are so smart. They've had videos
that they've taken of them on security cameras
where they climb out of a fish tank and go
across the floor and climb into another fish tank
and then eat
the fish and then climb back.
Like, a guy was missing, like, these expensive
fish in his fish tank.
He's like, what the fuck is going on?
So he set up his camera to look at his fish tank,
and he watched his octopus climb out of his fucking fish tank,
walk across the floor, climb up the other fish stand, the tank stand,
climb into the tank, lift the lid off of it, jack a fish, kill it,
walk across the street, hop back into his tank, and go to sleep.
I mean, Jesus Christ.
What the fuck are those things?
Unbelievable.
What are those things?
Have you seen this?
What is this, a bear?
A bear getting into a dumpster behind a restaurant.
Oh, no.
It's walking up to the back of the restaurant,
and there's this big, humongous green dumpster,
you know, full of old meats and stuff like that, probably.
Smart-ass bear goes around the side of it.
Let me see if I can fast-forward it.
Where did this take place?
I forget.
But he starts going through it,
and then he does something amazing.
Coming up right here,
he's taking the whole entire dumpster and walking with it.
Get the fuck out of here.
Wow.
And if you keep on
going, he actually starts pulling it
around the corner.
Oh.
Oh my god.
He's just walking away.
That is incredible.
And that's like a humongous dumpster.
That's like a double-wide dumpster.
Bears are so smart.
And then he comes back for the other one.
Or so strong, I should say.
Then he comes back for the other one.
He comes back for another one.
Where does it say this is?
Let's see.
It doesn't say.
It's just...
Oh, Denver.
Denver.
That totally makes sense.
You know, what's interesting is that they have a real problem
when bears find out they can do that,
they always come back.
Like, once a bear eats your garbage,
you got to call somebody.
You got a real problem.
They either have to shoot it
or they have to figure out a way to put it in a zoo
or do something
because once it knows it can eat your garbage,
it just keeps eating your garbage.
So if you live in a community that has bears
and you have that asshole neighbor that leaves pizza boxes and his fucking garbage. It just keeps eating your garbage. So if you live in a community that has bears and you have that asshole neighbor
that leaves pizza boxes
and his fucking garbage is sitting out there
and a bear finds out about it,
you're fucksville.
I'm so glad I don't live near big animals.
When I was in Texas,
they introduced me to the goats
and these fucking things are crazy.
These little goats that I thought were all cute
and just like adorable
are headbutting each other at full.
They're like, come on, Tony, get on in there.
Go see how these goats get on in there.
And I am just, I'm just not the guy to be in there with goats.
Yeah.
Like, oh, look at the little L.A. pussy boy with the goats.
Look how scared he is.
Guilty as charged.
These things are animals.
Yeah, absolutely.
Who wants to have a fistfight with a house cat?. Who wants to have a fist fight with a house cat?
Do you want to have a fist fight with a house cat?
No.
Fuck no.
I'm a lot bigger than a house cat, but I wouldn't want to fuck with one.
Right.
That cat was jumping off the furniture, trying to claw your eyes out.
Yeah, it gets scary.
Animals are just so different than people.
You don't want to fuck with them.
You get a little goat.
I got home late the other night.
Even little Twixie scared me. You know, Brian's fuck with them. You're a little goat. I got home late the other night. Even little Twixie scared me.
You know, Brian's little dog, little white
perfect little baby.
I came home late.
It's all dark in my living room
and I see something on the couch
looking at me. I'm like, what
the fuck is that? Because normally
Twixie's blocked probably about
a 9.9.
But normally she's blocked off upstairs and stays up there throughout the night.
So this thing was on the couch and I could see it just standing out.
I got really concerned.
I'm like, what kind of fucking animal?
I know that's an animal looking at me.
I flip on the light and it's the cutest dog in the world.
But I was really scared.
I'm like, what kind of white?
Is that like an albino raccoon that somehow climbed through a window?
My brain just started flying.
Well, somebody left their door open.
It was a photo that was taken.
Where was that? Was that you, Jamie? Did you find that?
There's a photo taken of a coyote that was
in someone's house. No, somebody showed it to me
in an email. A coyote
snuck into someone's house
and I think it was in Boulder
and just was like in their house.
So they open up the front door
and they see a coyote sitting in their house.
And they're like, oh, Jesus Christ.
How do you get this fucking thing out?
Right.
Did you see the mountain lion
that was in the guy's garage?
No.
Yeah, look up mountain lion garage in Colorado.
These guys had like a confrontation
with the mountain lion.
Mountain lion like ran right past this guy
and into a corner.
And the guy like goes into the corner trying to chase the mountain lion out and the mountain lion runs past him again and you're watching this you're going what the fuck all these things are
happening in colorado they sent and they just legalized pot it sounds like the last thing you'd
want after getting really stoned i'm gonna go to the garage grab a soda i'm high as fuck oh this is
it yeah this is exactly it so these guys they saw the cat
there it is look right in there and they're yelling at it like oh jesus they're going after
it and then look he steps in there it's jesus it's already up it's in the back yeah and it's
gonna run past him look at this whoa and he kicked it as it ran past him. That is nuts man. Look at that thing go
That's so crazy
Man, they weren't scared that shit at all. Yeah, those are hunters. They were all wearing camo. Do you see that? They're hunters probably yeah, but still you should be scared. So the thing decides to jump you you have problems with mine
Totally you got problems. I don't get that leverage
You can't choke out a mountain lion quite as easily as you can a human.
The thing about mountain lions, though, is there's so much food in Colorado.
There's so many animals for them to eat.
So many rabbits and deer.
There's so much for them to jack.
They don't really care.
You could just probably have a spray bottle with those guys.
Just sit back and chill.
Come here, puppy.
Get out of here, you little mountain lion.
Did you see the clip of Steve Harvey
bringing up marijuana on Family Feud? Oh, puppy. Get out of here, you little mountain lion. Come here, sweetie. Did you see the clip of Steve Harvey bringing up marijuana on Family Feud?
Oh, no.
Well, it's pretty funny.
Check this out.
Oh, I have seen this.
Name something that gets passed around.
Chris.
A joint.
A joint.
A joint.
Chris. A joint.
A joint.
Look at Steve Harvey's impression
when he pulls his arm off of him.
Oh, I am so wacky, the man says.
I've seen this before.
Have you?
Yeah, let's see what he says, though.
I don't remember.
Can I leave?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now, Chris, I don't know what hundred people you thought we were talking to at some nice little mall across good old America,
but I'm pretty sure the people didn't tell the survey people, hey, an illegal drug.
Let's turn around and see how many weed heads are out there with Chris.
A joint.
He can't believe it.
He was talking shit against it.
That's hilarious.
But this is the best part.
The women's reaction.
This is when you know we're going to hell.
Why, because's weird?
Okay, Tracy, only four answers top it, so...
The collection played church.
He clapped because he felt bad about saying a joint.
She smelled the halo and I got the horns.
I like the way you tried to the horns. Check this out.
I like the way you tried to stop us from going to hell.
You, mister, you evil boy,
passing around the little thing with this funny smell.
Looking for some saving here.
Church place.
Less than weed.
Less than weed.
That's decorated.
It's less than the joint.
This is not good.
I'm just going to do it.
You just go over there.
They're going to play this.
Yeah.
Wow.
That's hilarious, though.
That is pretty funny.
I think my mom showed me that.
You know, if you said a beer, you know, no one would give a shit.
Right.
You know?
But you say a joint, like, oh my goodness.
It really is.
We're such children.
It's so bizarre.
Such children.
And comparing it to hell, even.
He's a real hardcore Christian, that guy.
His audience is very Christian.
He does these big stadium church shows.
You ever seen those?
Yeah.
Is he one of those guys that makes women in wheelchairs walk?
No, no, no, no.
He just does
stand-up comedy
in these big church shows.
He has a radio show.
He does a lot
of different shit,
that guy.
I admire his hustle.
Totally.
He's got a lot
of things going on.
He's got his own radio show.
He does that show.
He does stand-up.
He does these big
church stand-up shows. It's not my
style. It's not my kind
of comedy, but I admire the dude's hustle.
I enjoy when people
hustle. What are you guys laughing at?
Oh my god. Jam Band just
showed me this video. It's one of the most
fucked up. You know Kevin Rose of Dig?
Oh, with the raccoon?
Let's show that.
Kevin Rose found a raccoon attacking his dog.
Yeah.
He grabbed it and threw it off.
Kevin Rose, like, he found it what?
What did he?
He found Dig.
He was on the screensavers, you know, on G4 and stuff.
See, it says, at 1 a.m., I heard my dog Toaster crying and yelping in pain.
I discovered a raccoon attacking him.
I do not encourage animal violence.
I wanted to get the wild animal as far away from us as possible.
Toaster is okay, but it has some claw and bite marks.
So that's what it says at the beginning of the video.
In the video, you see this raccoon and the dog are fucking going at it.
And so Kevin Rose runs down there, grabs the raccoon, slams it, and then kicks it.
Holy shit, he's gangster.
He grabbed that thing. He didn't kick it first. He just reached down and grabbed it with his hands, and then Hulk kicks it. Holy shit, he's gangster. He grabbed that thing.
He didn't kick it first.
He just reached down and grabbed it with his hands,
and then Hulk slammed it.
Wow.
Oh, shit.
Bam.
That's down a staircase, isn't it?
Yeah.
Whoa.
Now, is that a security camera that caught that?
Yeah.
Is that his house?
Yeah.
Wow, that's so crazy.
He's gangster.
He grabbed that thing and hurled it like a pillow.
Yeah, body slammed it.
Hey, that's how you do it when your loved ones are in danger.
You know, that's like when a woman picks up a truck to save her baby.
You know that kind of shit?
Yeah.
You get that freak strength.
I think I would have just kicked it.
I don't think I would have touched it with my hand.
I think I would have just like as hard as I could.
Yeah, I think you're right.
I think I probably would have too. Yeah. But who knows, I think you're right. I think I probably would too.
But who knows?
I know, you hear that yelping of your favorite little pet.
Little Wiki has a...
You might just...
I would grab a raccoon off of your dog if it was happening.
You might just go red-eyed.
You might just get crazy.
But God, how scary would it be if that thing walked on your face?
Yeah.
It's like...
I took my dog dude to the vet
and he had these canines.
I guess like puppy teeth,
like they're supposed
to fall out,
but a lot of times
their normal teeth
will grow around
their baby teeth.
Yeah, you told me about this.
Yeah, so she had to
pull out all these teeth.
Man, that poor dog
is just sitting there
like looking at walls,
crying.
Yeah, that's fucked up, man.
It's weird when you get
these little breeds too
because you gotta think like, what are, are those things up, man. It's weird when you get these little breeds, too, because you've got to think
like, are those things like
I mean, how healthy is it to make
an animal that weighs a pound?
What's involved in that process?
Is that like normal? It's a normal sized dog.
It's not a teacup or anything.
It's just a shih tzu.
A lot of people think it's like a
teacup, but I think it's just a runt
or whatever it's called. You know, like the baby of the litter, the small one of the litter.
Hmm.
I think it's called a runt.
Yeah, I did some research on Twixie's thing and the Pekingese dog.
You know, they used to, how they came was they would have like samurai warriors would just leave these beautiful little puppies in the bottom of their sleeves.
So they'd walk around and be all intimidating
and stuff. So to offset that,
they'd have these adorable little dogs
as they would just walk around with.
Speaking of animals, Brian, I want you to go to
this story. It's on the Daily Cause.
K-O-S. You ever go to that website?
Go to dailycause.com and there's
a story on...
I'll tweet it because this is so
fucking crazy. You're not going to believe it.
This, these armed agents came into a no kill shelter. I just tweeted it. Um, you could find
the link, uh, these armed agents when they had a no kill shelter for like dogs, you know, so like
if you don't want, you could, you could donate money and it's like a nonprofit. So like for a
dog that goes to a pound, a lot of times they're in danger of being killed.
So there's a few of these no-kill shelters that people set up to make sure that these animals don't die.
Well, someone put a deer in one of these no-kill shelters.
So aerial photos were taken.
They saw the deer.
A warrant was issued, and a raid ensued by heavily armed agents.
The staff was corralled, not permitted to make calls, and cell phones were confiscated to delete pictures of the raid,
and a baby deer, named Giggles by the staff, was seized and stuffed into a body bag and then promptly killed by the agents.
and then promptly killed by the agents.
The presiding warden compared it to a drug raid to justify the SWAT-like tactics.
They compared it to a drug raid,
that having an illegal deer on the premise,
a baby deer that they've been taking care of,
was like having drugs.
So they came in there, and this is in Wisconsin,
the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources agents and the sheriff's deputies raided this nonprofit no-kill shelter,
put this fucking baby deer in a bag, and then killed it.
This is insane.
The article says,
This is insane.
The article says,
Yes, dear civilized world,
heavily armed agents of a state government in the U.S. of A.
have raided a no-kill animal shelter to execute with extreme prejudice
an internationally recognized symbol
for the gentleness, helplessness, and innocence.
Yes, world, this is America today,
where militarized assault has become the answer
to even the most minimal threat.
So really, I don't... I mean, that's a really interesting, it's a really interesting article.
I mean, the way he just said that, it's really weird that they did that.
So they went in for this deer specifically?
I mean, the word, yeah, the word interesting is the wrong word, obviously.
I'm still kind of stunned by this.
But that agents would want to do this, that they would want to go in armed like that.
Like, why are they so armed for a deer?
Have they given a reason why or have they made any comments?
I don't know, man.
I just read this.
It's kind of crazy, though.
That is bizarre.
I mean, it's a new story.
It says 621 p.m., and right now it's 75 57 p.m. where we are I don't know if this
is Pacific time yes it's Pacific time so they just it's only a couple hours old
wait this is August 1st yeah today's August 1st buddy isn't it
August 2nd is say the second already yeah oh my god where's this fucking life
going it's life flying by anyway the, the story's gone viral now.
It's saying,
the Daily Cause is Daily KOS.
Excellent website.
There's always like
really interesting stories there.
So go there
and check that out.
And if you're looking
for the link
to the story itself,
it's on my Twitter feed,
which is Joe Rogan.
It also has
a beautiful picture
of Michelle Bachman
on the front page.
That crazy conservative lady.
Yeah. I love those crazy conservative lady. Yeah.
I love those crazy conservative ladies.
Maybe that deer was like some kind of a government experiment and it got away.
Oh, right.
Maybe it was like 28 Days Later deer.
It has to be something crazy for them.
I mean, killing the deer is one thing.
Maybe they're just bored and they wanted something to do and that was like a big deal.
And they wanted something to do, and that was like a big deal.
Just running there and fucking... Deleting the pictures, that seems like a whole other illegal move.
It seems like you should be able to take whatever pictures you want.
On your property.
Yeah, but they want to minimize any kind of political situation that would come up from killing a deer.
And they probably thought the best way to do that is to stop any photos that are being taken.
Wow.
Yeah, kind of crazy, really.
Yeah.
Just, it seems a little bit overkill-y.
Maybe Wisconsin's just trying to act gangster
so they get some attention.
I don't know, man.
It just hurts your feelings.
And this is coming from someone who's killed a deer.
But I killed a deer to eat it.
Right.
Someone has a baby pet deer.
Fenced into a no-kill ranch.
It's just so crazy.
I mean, the people that would be the biggest animal lovers
probably that you could find were the ones that would be working there.
So to do that to them is like extra cruel.
Another thing that's really
bizarre did you say that they put them in a body bag and then kill them yeah
yeah they just grabbed it and stuffed into a body bag and then probably either
clubbed it or shot it Kevin Rose threw it down some stairs yeah I mean I know
man who knows what it is normally you put things in a body bag after that
seems like a lot of hard work.
Yeah.
It's flailing legs.
It's horrible.
It's really weird, you know?
You stop and think about it. It's like that someone could just do that in front of all these screaming, crying people
and stuff it in a bag and ice it.
Right, of all the things.
It just seems like it's not necessary.
I mean, the only thing that you could say, though,
and this is true, is that they
contain ticks, and those ticks contain
Lyme disease. That is possible.
And if they were worried
about Lyme disease spreading
into these other animals, and they were justifiably
upset that
these people brought a possibly contaminated
deer, it does make
sense that they would take the deer away and examine it.
At least, you know, examine it.
But throwing it in a body bag and killing it is pretty fucking, pretty cruel.
Yeah.
It's like, why not?
Why not be nice?
Why do I do that to poor little deer?
Yeah.
They're so cute.
It's like a really bad way to die.
They're so cute, but they're so fucking delicious.
It's like there's a battle going on with us, you know?
You know what else is delicious? Rabbits.
Delicious. And for a while,
people just, they had to eat them. There was no debate.
And it's just like recently,
where people, you know, in the last few hundred years
or so, people have gotten to the point where we don't
have to kill everything to eat it. It's not everything
near us that's moving, hit with a rock
and fucking thrown into a fire. We don't have to do that
anymore. So we have pets.
We have pets that used to be our food.
Cute little rabbit.
They're so fluffy. They're like, please don't eat us.
We're not aggressive. We just hang out.
Sometimes you gotta eat them.
I actually
don't think you know this about me.
But I'm a vegetarian. I'm a vegan.
Total vegan, right?
Yeah.
I knew there was something wrong with you.
I've known this for a long time.
I always thought it was funny because I love your secret vegan bit that you do.
And the first time I heard it was when I was working with you in Indianapolis.
And I'm back there cracking up.
And I said, you know what?
I'm going to keep this.
I'm going to see how long I could be the opposite vegan.
Well, I knew you were at least a vegetarian for a long time.
I think it came up maybe when we were hanging out.
Do we go to dinner or something?
Do we eat something?
Yeah, I think so.
Yeah, that's kind of weird when you're on the road.
Is that annoying?
It's so hard on the road.
It really is.
What do you do when you're on the road?
What do you stand up?
Luckily, the main thing that I avoid is dairy.
I still eat fish, sushi, salmon, all that.
Oh, you do?
It seems to be-
Wait a minute.
The fuck are you talking about?
You're not a vegan.
I'm a pescatarian that doesn't eat dairy.
Dude, that is not being a vegan.
Oh, yeah.
You eat fish.
But it's the butter and milk that's the bad stuff.
Yeah, but you're-
Okay. Vegans, for the most part, they're doing it more as an,
I wouldn't say more, but one of the major considerations
is that they don't want to hurt animals.
Yeah, that's not my consideration at all.
Mine is so selfish.
I just wanted to be happy all the time.
That's what I was, it has nothing to do with the animals.
And you found that altering your diet has a big change on how you feel?
Big time.
In what way?
Creatively.
Really?
Absolutely.
I mean, see, what used to happen was that down that I would get after eating,
I mean, it's just exhausting.
And I'm very reactive to that.
I like coffee and I like being able to be in position to do something, you know.
So it used to really bother me. And first I cut out meat. like coffee and I like being able to be in position to do something, you know? Um, so it
used to really bother me. And first I cut out meat. I'm like, it's something with my eating
because I would just crash so hard after every meal I'd want to take a nap. So then I went a
few months and I've done it before and both times it's been this way, but this time I've kept it
for a year and a half. And, but once I cut out the dairy, sour cream, the cheese, it's hard in the beginning, but it's not really once you just go around it.
Once you have vegan cheese in your house, it's pretty much straight because then you can make a pizza or whatever.
You know, you could throw something together if you really are craving it.
But, yeah, that edge and the negativity and sort of depression-like symptoms that I was feeling pretty much throughout my whole life up until the point really dissipated after the dairy was gone.
Almost instantly, by the way.
Like to the meal, once I started eliminating cheese was really the main thing because I'd have cheese on every sandwich.
So delicious, though.
Right.
I like vegan cheese, though. You get used to it.
And there's great ways around it.
You know, avocado is great. For me, it's one month now with no gluten. Oh, wow. I like vegan cheese though you get used to it and there's great ways around it avocados, great
for me it's one month now with no gluten
one month where I haven't had any
it's completely changed my diet
I only eat vegetables
and meats and chicken and fish
and things along those lines
occasionally I have rice, but not very often
but I've completely cut out all pasta
completely cut out all bread
and I notice a lot of differences I don't feel but not very often. But I've completely cut out all pasta, completely cut out all bread. And I know alone,
it's a lot of differences.
The,
the,
I don't feel when I eat,
even if I'm full,
I don't need to eat anymore.
I don't feel bloated.
I don't have the,
uh,
there's a feeling that I should eat.
Dude,
I can put away some fucking food.
All right.
I would eat a giant whole pizza by myself,
like with all sorts of shit on it.
Pepperoni and sausage.
And I will fuck up a big
pizza to the point where i just at the the last couple of slices i'm just trying to prove a point
right just just just just showing what a fat fucking pig i could be and stuff this down my
throat but the feeling after that when that cement is digesting in my stomach, that paste, when it's all smashed up with my teeth and packed into a ball of just barely digestible fart fuel.
Totally.
I mean, that's what it is.
I'm just cutting horrible farts and listening to my stomach rumble and it's just stretched out and aching.
That's gone.
One of the reasons why I did it is because I talked to someone about my back,
which has gotten a lot better.
And thank you, everybody who has had back injuries and given me tips,
whether it's on Twitter, on the message board.
A lot of people gave me some great suggestions of different shit to do,
including Dave Asprey who told me ozone, pro-lozone therapy.
It's pro-lo therapy with ozone, which helped me
quite a bit. Really interesting, interesting
stuff. But this lady told
me to cut out gluten. She said she
she's a therapist, physical therapist
and her and her husband both work with like high
level athletes. And one of the things they said
is like we've had really good results
in getting people to stop eating
gluten and a lot of
inflammation goes down and people that have had like back issues just in cutting out the gluten
the inflammation from their discs swelling and stuff has gone down considerably to the point
where it becomes asymptomatic and i thought that was so crazy i was like how could gluten like have
that much of an effect on you but man it fucking does i does. I've only been a month. It's about roughly a month now, but I have much less aches and pains and joints.
My face looks thinner.
My face is like... I'm still eating as much as I want.
Right.
I'm not like... I wouldn't say I'm limiting my calories or dieting, but I'm losing body
fat, and my stomach is going down.
I know there's this book, Wheat Belly.
I haven't read it yet, but apparently what they talk about is, like,
how many people have, like, belly fat from eating gluten and wheat,
and, like, that just packs it on you.
But I noticed my stomach on television.
I was like, my gut's kind of sticking out a little bit
because I haven't been able to work out as much because of my back.
All that shit's gone.
All that shit's gone as soon as I cut out gluten.
Wow.
I can tell on your face.
Yeah. My face was getting pretty fat, Wow. I can tell on your face. Yeah.
My face was getting pretty fat, man.
I carry weight in my face. It's one of the first places I carry it, for whatever reason.
In my dick.
Fortunately, fortunately and
unfortunately, my dick is
looking like a runner.
My dick looks like a jogger.
A jogger. I want my dick to look like a jogger. A jogger.
I want my dick to look like a bulldog.
Instead it looks like a jogger with a headband.
But I would recommend anybody trying it.
Some people say it's nonsense.
But one of the things I found out about the internet,
the internet is a beautiful resource,
but no matter what,
there's going to be a certain amount of people that think something sucks.
Right.
It could be the most awesome shit that's ever existed.
I've seen people say the Black Keys fucking suck.
I've seen people say Louis C.K. fucking sucks.
I've seen people say Dave Chappelle fucking sucks.
Right.
Everything that is awesome in the world,
someone out there is saying it sucks.
You could just search the keywords on Twitter
and you'll find people saying the dumbest stuff in the world. Someone out there is saying it sucks. You could just search the keywords on Twitter and you'll find people saying the dumbest stuff in the world.
So much of it is people not talking in person to other people and not like having to like have like a sort of like a cooperative interactive exchange with people.
cooperative, interactive exchange with people.
Instead of that, like, communicating with people
and seeing them in a full, three-dimensional
person-to-person sort of a way.
Just the ability to, like,
fucking
just get online.
Hey, fucking Tony Hinchcliffe, you think you're funny?
You're a fucking queer.
Yeah.
They just throw it out there.
Just unleash from the bowels of their soul.
They hide in their apartment from the fucking bill collectors.
From their parents who live on the floor above them.
It's a weird thing.
If I can give any advice to anybody that finds themselves caught doing that,
sometimes people think they can do it to celebrities because celebrities aren't really people.
I've seen people that seem they seem like normal folks.
And then, you know, they'll tell you like, yeah, Iriani Celeste blocked me from Twitter.
I watch that.
I was fucking giving her some shit about something.
She blocked me.
Like, why are you doing that, dude?
Do you even know her?
Like, what do you know?
Why are you having this exchange with her?
What are you doing?
Why are you being so mean?
Why are you being mean?
Focus on yourself, motherfucker.
It's just.
It's weird when you meet those people in person, too.
Like, there was a guy the other day that came to the comedy club,
and he was just like...
Remember that guy that came up?
He was kind of drunk, and he goes...
He was talking to our friend Benji,
and he was just like,
you know, man, you suck.
Your set was just stupid.
And we were just,'re just interrupting our conversation.
And it got me to the point
where I was like, I almost just want to
beat this guy's ass. I'm not even a fighter,
but I just want to smash this dude's face in.
Because I've already gone through the
please, just get away from us, man.
Leave us alone type thing. And the whole night
he wouldn't leave. He kept on getting kicked out.
And he would come sneak his way back in,
start talking shit to
Comics and then like wow it was like he just needed so he's like a like a human in real life troll yes
Yeah, he was sort of like an internet
He was really bad at it too because he would come up with the come up to the group
He would say somebody sucked and we're just like okay. What else what else you got? Oh, that's it
I just want to tell you you suck.
It's like, okay, well, then that's it, right?
So you can go.
Like, why you got to be like that?
You just told me I suck.
What do you mean?
What am I supposed to do, hang out with you?
As time goes on, more of those people are being exposed,
and they're starting to feel the sting of being mean to people like that like have you seen what happened with that
guy that was on who's a reddit guy who was like he was posting he post like
really mean evil shit on reddit and they found out who he was in real life so
they contacted his employer and he got fired he got fired for his red and he's
got like he was talking about it like he's like this is is just a persona. I just do this to blow off steam.
I'm actually a nice guy.
I got a family.
He just was entertaining himself by just doing this online.
It gets weird, man.
It gets weird because I don't agree with that guy getting fired.
I'll tell you that.
I don't agree with a guy getting fired for something that has nothing to do with his work
because you find out that he posts mean shit on Twitter or on Reddit.
Well, he didn't know that he was going to get caught.
Like, you know, you have to show that bar, you know?
Like, most people think that the rules are pretty – like, it's a game to a lot of folks.
Like, try to say something mean, try to get people to react, try to get people to freak out
because you put up some horrifying image.
And that game, the parameters of that game have been pretty clearly established.
No one was losing any jobs because of that.
You had an anonymous name.
Nobody lost any jobs.
Well, somewhere along the line, people decided that wasn't good enough.
So they had to go after the people that were posting this fucked up shit.
And the way they went after is they find out who you are as a real human being.
And then they go after you.
And that's where this shit gets weird.
Yeah. Because it was like, who are they go after you. And that's where this shit gets weird. Yeah.
Because it was, like, who are you?
Are you your online guy?
Right.
Or are you the real guy, the real, you know,
Tony Hinchcliffe that I see out there in the street?
Or are you Tony Hinchcliffe that pretends to be a woman
and goes on Cougar Life and tries to get guys to fall in love?
Have you been looking at my browser history?
How many women, I mean, history? How many dudes out there that are online talking
and they think to women are actually just other dudes
that are pretending to be women?
Oh, yeah.
That didn't happen to me.
People are getting catfished.
Well, one of the things that we did on this sci-fi show
is we went to a motion capture studio that does,
they do the same stuff, they do
Avatar and they did a lot of other movies and they have all these different frames that
they can put you into.
Like they put you in this motion capture suit and they make an image of your face and then
they can put your face like on a body and then you're running around this area and you're
running around actually like in this game.
You know, you're like, you could see You could see this character, and you could be a woman.
You could be a monster.
You could be all these different characters in a game.
How long is it until we have a World of Warcraft-type 3D game, and dudes just decide to be a chick?
Right.
You know?
Yeah.
Just because.
Just because.
Just for fun. Yeah. Why not? You know? I. Just because. Just because. Just for fun.
Yeah.
Why not?
You know?
I'm always a girl video game character.
And anyway.
Yeah, you would be a girl if you were a superhero, right?
Didn't you say you would be a superwoman?
Yeah, superwoman.
And if you had the choice, you would bother the other players more by killing them being
a woman anyway.
Like, oh man, I just got killed by a chick.
Let me give you a for instance.
Let me give you a what if.
Okay.
Let's say, I don't know anything about your personal situation,
but let's say you're in love.
You found the girl.
This is the one you want to marry, okay?
And you have the opportunity for one day or one hour, let's say an hour,
to feel what it's like for you to fuck her.
And she gets to feel what it's like to be you having sex with her so you you feel what it's like to be her getting fucked by you and she feels what it's like for you to fuck her
do you think you could do that do you think you could lie there and get fucked by yourself
i don't think i could handle an hour i don't think i could handle an hour of uh what i'm
dealing with do you think you could do that? Do you think you could deal with kissing you?
Do you think you'd love her enough to let her be you for an hour and you be her?
I really, really love myself.
I'm pretty sure that if I got fucked by me, if I was a chick
for an hour, I'd probably really enjoy it.
If I was a chick, I'd probably really enjoy it. If I was a
chick, I'd probably be a squirter.
Do you think
you'd give up the booty? Would you go
anal?
If you were a chick, would you take it in the ass from yourself?
Well, for me, yeah.
Would you just spit on your hand
and rub your ass on the shit?
Never in any other analogy would I...
Reach back and open it up wide for you.
I don't know
would you go
ass to mouth
for yourself
that's the real question
how much do you
really love yourself
because you probably
don't love yourself
enough to go
ass to mouth
on yourself
but if you watch porn
girls who don't even
love guys
are willing to go
ass to mouth
right
so consider
well the girls
in porns
are getting like
two thousand bucks
so do I also
get two thousand to fuck myself
If that's all it takes for you to go
Ass to mouth we can have that arranged
Well he has to be
Fucking himself
We'll just make a mask
No that's on a guy
We'll just make a mask
That looks just like you
It's not gay if it's yourself
How about we make a mask that looks just like you And we put it on if it's yourself. How about we make a mask that looks just like you
and we put it on a girl with a strap on?
So it is like you're fucking yourself.
Not enough?
No, definitely not.
You need to be the girl.
You need to actually be a girl.
Because then you'd say, yeah, I'm not even me, I'm her.
And then you look down and you see your penis
and you go, oh, no.
No, I'm still a guy.
What the fuck kind of game am I playing?
I know.
I'm so confused.
I don't know whether i would
fuck this thing or i wouldn't i don't know what's me and what's not do they both have penises does
one have a vagina i mean i've wondered have you ever wondered what it i mean what it must be like
to be a woman to be attracted to men and to to be a woman and like have a man inside of you and
like the whole experience it's so radically different.
It would be really trippy if they offered up,
say if one day your mind literally can be recorded.
Say if one day the memory that you experience now is old school.
They're going to have digital memory.
They're going to plug it into the cerebral cortex
or wherever the fuck your memories are stored,
and you're going to be able to have it on a hard drive.
You're going to be able to have your memory on a hard drive.
I'm going to be able to take a copy of your memory
or borrow your chip or whatever and stick it in my head
and experience what you're experiencing.
So the question becomes, if that is possible,
if you can literally one day experience someone's memories,
will you experience you getting fucked by you?
That's interesting because it's like, you know, people that are born blind,
people that are born blind don't dream in color.
So I wonder if you could feel a vagina
if you don't have one.
That's a very good point.
That's a very good point.
That's really interesting.
I never even thought of that.
But you and the wife would just swap hard drives.
It seems like they're getting a more enjoyable end.
I mean, the noises that they make the whole time.
I mean, I don't know how you guys are, but I'm not that loud.
It's not like, ah, ah, ah.
You should try it.
Practice it.
Really?
Fucking go crazy.
Pretend.
I can't wait.
I can tell this is life-changing advice I'm about to get.
I can't wait to see I can tell this is
life changing advice
I'm about to get
just pretend
when you
pretend when you're fucking
that you're an animal
in a movie
that's what you should do
not even a real animal
because real animals
are fairly quiet
like a squirrel
yeah
like a
just a crazy
wild
undiscovered
ape
that lives in Africa
it's one killer fucking
screaming ape and claw
and hold it by the neck and
try it. Let's get crazy.
I make sea lion noises.
Yeah, the kind
that are drying up
on the beach because they have a broken flipper.
Is that how you get to fuck dolphins?
By making that noise?
By the way, sea lions are the most funniest sounding animal, I think.
Just hanging out.
I wonder what they're doing.
Do you think they're communicating?
I don't know.
They sound so depressed and dumb.
You ain't lying.
Yeah, it's not like the best sound.
Have you ever heard an elk?
Elk?
Yeah.
They have this weird...
They have like a bugle.
It's called an elk bugle.
Pull it up.
It has a sound.
It's the weirdest noise.
Like animals have weird fucking noises,
but male elks,
they're called bull elks,
when they're calling out to bitches,
letting them know what's up,
it's time to get some dick.
Time to get some dick.
Listen to this sound.
You hear that?
That's an elk.
It also sounds like Tony in bed.
That's a female.
It's R2-D2.
Oh, wow.
How weird is that?
Elk, when you look at them with their giant fucking horns, listen to that.
Is that the guy?
That's an elk.
That's an elk making noise.
Yeah, that's a male.
The males have horns.
How crazy is that?
That animal's right out of Lord of the Rings.
Oh, yeah.
It looks like a boar with antlers.
They're weird because they're closer related, apparently, to cows than they are to deer.
It looks like it.
Really thick necks.
What a weird fucking noise, man.
Fuck, I'd suck off that elk after making that noise.
Those mating calls are working on me.
I mean, what a weird animal, man.
I mean, think about that reality.
Living in the woods, just trekking around in snow, looking for grass to eat,
and then once a year, it's time to fuck.
Wow.
Once a year, it's time to get your fuck on.
How exciting that must be when that comes around.
Oh.
Oh.
I wish I was here for the other day.
You had that car guy on.
Oh, Matt Farah? Yeah, how was that? Oh, he'll be back again. He was awesome. the other day. You had that car guy on. Oh, Matt Farah?
Yeah, how was that?
Oh, he'll be back again.
He was awesome.
He was awesome.
Fun.
We got hammered, too.
Oh, jeez, Louisa.
I could talk shit about Volkswagen with him.
Why?
What's wrong with your Volkswagen?
It's the most dumbest thing ever.
I haven't had my car for a month.
What's wrong?
Well, when I first got it, they had this thing where the windows, you try to roll up the windows,
and it would roll up all the way, and then it would roll down all the way.
And then you're like, God damn it, you have to do it like four times in a row.
So finally, I was like, what the fuck's going on?
They're like, oh, there's a recall.
So they take out the windows, and they scratch up, I had tenting on them.
They scratched up all the tenting on it.
And so then I had to take it back.
And then like this, like a couple months later the sunroof thing broke the trunk thing
which had like string holding up the trunk broke like all these little things keep keep on breaking
like the car awesome but all these little stupid things so then i'm gonna take it back they they
have it for two weeks they give it back to me they didn't fix half the shit so then i had to take it
back they didn't fix half the shit what didn't they fix like like they they were supposed to
fix this headlight thing and and they didn't fix the headlight.
And then when they
were fixing the sunroof thing, they scratched
up the top of the interior,
so they have to replace the interior.
And the general
manager and the service managers won't even
call me back anymore.
They don't have an answer.
Every time I call, I'm like, how about now?
And they're like, it'll be beginning of next week.
Then next week comes and they're like, it's going to be the following week.
And they just don't even answer my phone calls anymore.
It's gotten to that point.
They don't answer your phone calls?
No, no.
They won't return my calls.
There was like three days that they didn't return my calls.
And this is the dealership?
This is the dealership.
But I just contacted, because I went crazy on Twitter.
And then, of course, you know, the Volkswagen Twitter page sent me a message.
And what'd they say?
So I called up and I made this, I had to make up this whole, like, you know, thing where the district manager's just going to figure out what the fuck's going on.
So they had opened up a case.
But still, no car.
And, like, they gave me a Passat, which I guess is a nice car, a 2013 to use for the last two days.
But it's like one of those ones where it's been stripped of everything, where you don't even have a map, GPS.
No navigation?
I have a four-cylinder.
I have no pickup at all, so I'm on the LA freeway trying to speed or do something.
And it's just like I have a little go-kart.
It's bullshit.
That's crazy that they've had it for a month.
Yeah.
What was the major issue?
What the fuck was it?
Well, the major issue was just that, like, I mean, there's been so many little things that have been breaking on it, like the windows and stuff.
But, like, they have this net that's over the sunroof, and you pull the net.
And what are they saying?
I mean, are they giving you a reason why they can't fix it?
Well, no, what they do is they fix it, and they'll break something else.
They break something else.
They break something else? Yeah, like when they fixed the roof thing, they scratched up my whole interior.
And so they're replacing the interior now.
When they replaced my windows, they scratched up all the tint on my windows when they put it back in.
It's been just nonstop.
And then all these little tiny, like people warn me about this.
I already knew this about Volkswagen.
But all these little tiny things, like the cigarette lighter thing
where you plug in your iPhone charger.
When you pull it out, the whole thing came out,
so I had to get that fixed.
So it's a build quality complaint.
It's a build, yeah.
And what's weird is if you look back,
like I get consumer reports and stuff with Volkswagen,
they've had this problem for so long
that it's always an electrical issue.
It's always, you know, like the little things break.
It's never the engine.
Like usually everything runs fine.
It's just like your car will fall apart.
And it's like to the T.
I would go there and I would verbally abuse every employee there.
Yeah, but it's not their fault.
Who knows what the fuck is going on, you know?
I mean, it's not every employee.
Well, no.
Someone's fucking up. I mean, the one not the, every employee, you know, someone's fucking up.
I mean,
the one that,
the one that they put in front of you,
though,
that's,
that's response,
whoever's responsible for that location.
There was also a point,
part,
part of this Volkswagen experience
where I ordered a part,
this headlight,
like,
they were like,
you know,
something on the freeway
snapped up and hit this,
one of the fog lights,
and it was like,
all right,
so I have to pay for that,
I understand.
And they're like,
well,
it's going to be $200, but the labor's going to be 100 i'm like that's fine just need to
need it fixed and uh then they didn't fix that and then uh i was like why didn't you fix this
i had to take my car back and they're like uh i went to the service manager and i was like you
know why didn't you fix this and then oh this service guy said that you said not to fix it
that was too expensive okay well this sounds like a personal situation. Oh, yeah, yeah.
I'm just saying.
It's going to go on forever.
But, yeah, that sucks.
Do you want to say the name of the place?
New Century Volkswagen Glendale.
You can eat my dick.
Oh, my goodness.
How dare you?
That's not what I was hoping you were going to do.
I was hoping you were going to say,
New Century Volkswagen Glendale.
Let's work this out.
Eat my dick.
They have your car still.
I don't care anymore.
They can keep my car.
You shouldn't say eat my dick, because they might just eat your dick.
You're going to get there, they're going to lock the doors, and they're going to go, oh, you want to talk some shit, huh?
Yeah, our phone's been ringing off the hook for the past two days, so we are going to eat your dick.
They come out with a fucking pair of hedge clippers and chase you around the Volkswagen shop.
Okay?
It's in Glendale, man.
Glendale's filled with people that don't play.
You're not fucked.
It does sound like a pain in the dick, though.
Tony Hinchcliffe, any car problems you want to throw into the bench?
No, no car problems.
I did have some bad customer service two weeks ago, though.
I was at the airport.
I had just gotten done with this gig.
I was by myself in Corpus Christi, Texas for a weekend. I'm at the airport. I get there a half hour early,
about to board. I mean, this is the Corpus Christi airport. So there's just me and the
other people that are on my flight there. And I'm sitting right next to the door where they
pull the gate up to, you know, I'm sitting right there. I have about a half hour though
to wait before they load up the plane. My eyes start getting a little heavy because I have a 5 o'clock flight.
I've been up all night.
I did stand up that night.
So I stay up to get the flight so I can get back to L.A. early and sleep in my bed, you know, and sleep on the plane.
Anyway, my eyes get heavy.
I fall asleep while they're boarding this plane.
I wake up.
It's 15 minutes after it took off.
And I open my eyes, and there's still that lady
that works for the airline there and i go so that plane took off huh and she's like oh you must be
hinge cliff i go yeah how do you know that she goes because i just paged you twice i go i'm
sitting right here i mean sure i fell asleep but you would think that this lady there's nobody else
in the airport now she didn't so you think they're supposed, but you would think that this lady, there's nobody else in the airport now.
So you think they're supposed to wake you up?
Is that what the fuck you're saying?
Jesus Christ, you lazy bitch.
They're going to fly you through the sky in a fucking metal tube.
You want them to wake you up too?
This is like 150 fucking people on this plane.
They don't have time to wake you up.
There wasn't even, it was like 35.
Whatever it is, there's 34 other people to think about. Why the fuck should they wake you up? There wasn't even, it was like 35. Whatever it is. There's 34 other people to think about.
Why the fuck should they wake you up?
There's only one guy sitting there.
Wake up, bitch.
It's time to wake up, bitch.
I don't agree with that.
They probably were like, hello, sir, sir, you right there.
All right, last call.
Like, they're not going to come up to you and like shaking,
like just in case if you're not Tony Inchcliffe.
Tony, you're a mess.
That's what the fuck happened.
You're a goddamn mess.
Wow.
You couldn't even stay awake long enough to catch a flight.
What are you, on Ambien?
Taking drugs, son?
Nice Ohio boy, come over here, fall into those LA ways?
Is that what happened?
No, man.
I was sitting in an airport.
Yeah, you son of a bitch.
Son of a bitch.
Did you see this article on magic mushrooms repairing brain damage caused by extreme trauma?
It's on my Twitter.
It's a study from the University of South Florida that found that low doses of the active ingredient in magic mushrooms repairs brain damage caused by extreme trauma, offering renewed hope to millions of sufferers of PTSD, or post-traumatic stress disorder,
and that this study confirms previous research by the Imperial College London
that psilocybin, a naturally occurring compound present in shrooms,
stimulates new brain cell growth and erases frightening memories.
Mice conditioned to fear electric shock when hearing a noise associated with the shock
simply lost their fear, says Dr. Juan Sanchez Ramos, who co-authored the study.
A low dose of psilocybin led to overcoming fear conditioning and the freeze response
associated with it faster than the group of mice on catacerin, which is a drug that counteracts the receptors
that bind psilocybin in the brain, and a control group on saline.
Amazing.
It's amazing shit, man.
Yeah, they've linked it to curing depression and other mental health issues as well what they're saying yeah this this article also goes on to
talk about how um ptsd is not um just psychological that common symptoms it says such as hyper
vigilance memory fragmentation flashbacks disassociation nightmares and flight or flight
responses to triggers are generally thought to be psychological and therefore treatable by learning
to change thought processes,
but new research suggests that they may in fact be the result of long-term physiological mutations to the brain.
That's interesting.
That it actually changes the brain
and that psilocybin repairs those changes.
That's amazing, man.
I totally believe it.
I believe it too, but that's an extreme, extreme statement.
That's really incredible.
It's really incredible that they can do that.
It feels like it when you're on them.
It feels like there's a new brain growing.
I can see life better.
I get a nice path.
Like, oh, there's a nice path to go down.
You know, like sometimes you get, especially if you're overwhelmed with life and busy and stressed out, you can get a little cloudy on what the path is.
Totally.
But then sometimes just one psychedelic experience and then you see the path.
Like, oh, this is what's right.
This is what's good.
I had my first one in a while,
just a few weeks ago with Ari.
We went out to Joshua Tree.
Oh, you were on that little journey.
And we had a blast.
And ever since then,
just like I knew I needed,
I mean, it's just like clockwork.
It gets rid of all that.
I was having regularly,
maybe once a day for maybe only 20, 30 seconds, these feelings of, oh, I'm dying.
You know what I mean?
Like this natural anxiety.
Like how am I, you know, whatever.
Yeah.
Interesting.
And it's just gone.
It's just a different cleanse.
It's like giving your brain a shower is how it feels like to me.
It just feels scrubbed. I think it's amazing that you had that incredible experience from just dropping dairy.
That you had this experience of no depression, feeling better and happier just from dropping dairy.
No doubt about it.
Immediately.
Immediately like that day.
It's so delicious though.
But it's so delicious.
It is, but you lose the thing for it after you don't have it. And once you feel the results directly, you're like,
I mean, I love sour cream, but I don't love it that much. And it's easy to switch over to almond
milk or any kind of those things. They make so many different kinds. I love almond milk,
and I never really was a big fan of regular cow's milk. Yeah, almond milk is pretty badass,
actually. Almond milk,'s pretty badass, actually.
Yeah.
Almond milk, it tastes good,
and it doesn't give you that weird feeling when it's over,
but it does taste like when you're drinking it,
it tastes like you're drinking milk.
But no, I can't even have fucking cereal,
so it's a point, Tony Hinchcliffe.
I know.
There's no cereals that are non-gluten.
They probably taste like ass.
I'm sure someone's going to tell me about ones that are good. I found out there's a lot of beer that you can drink. You can drink Budweiser.
Budweiser has less than 20
parts per million. That's how you
judge whether or not something is gluten
free. Budweiser and Heineken
apparently. Heineken has so little gluten in it.
Corona. Sapporo.
The rice beers of Japan.
Those beers are all rice beers.
They're not
wheat based. Some good options. They're not wheat-based.
There's some good options.
Yeah, there's some options.
I like Heineken's. I've always been a fan of Heineken's.
So that's nice, but I can't drink fucking Sam Adams,
and I can't drink Black Butte Porter,
like a thick Guinness-type beer.
I love those stouts.
What about wines?
You can drink wine.
Sweet.
Yeah.
I think some vodka.
I don't know about vodka. Yeah, what about whiskeys? I think you can drink wine. Sweet. Yeah. I think some, I don't know about vodka.
Yeah, what about whiskeys?
I think you can drink whiskey.
Yeah.
I think you're allowed to drink whiskey.
Because what's whiskey made out of?
Rye?
Is that what it is?
Yeah.
Or corn?
Hmm.
I don't know.
Corn?
I think probably tequila.
That's mezcal, right?
That's made out of like a cactus or some shit, right?
I think so.
Really?
I don't know.
What's tequila made out of?
That's a great question.
I never thought about it.
It's clear.
Why is it clear?
It's clear, yeah.
For something that fucks you up that much,
it seems like it should be rainbow colored.
I have made some of the worst decisions of my life on tequila.
Oh, it's so much fun.
See, I've been doing this thing lately
where I rotate what I drink regularly,
and I notice that there's different kind of buzzes and stuff
that come along with it, totally.
And now one of my new favorite things is just popping a shot of tequila
and having a beer and rocking the night away,
where before I was very, very hung up on Crown Royal and Coke,
like whiskey and Coke.
Right.
Which is so bad for you.
It's made out of agave.
And the blue agave
plant is
the one where they
extract.
Fascinating, man.
That's fascinating shit.
Blue agave.
Primarily in the area surrounding the city
of Tequila.
Which is northwest of Guadalajara in the highlands of Los Altos
of the Mexican western state of Jalisco.
Does not sound safe around that area.
Not a place to take your family on vacation.
It's an excellent place to be if you're a kilo.
family on vacation. It's an excellent place to be if you're a kilo.
Man, it's just
weird that that has become the reality
of Mexico
in just a few short decades.
We didn't associate Mexico with that
when I was in high school. Mexico wasn't
drug war and people cutting off
people's heads and the nutty
shit that you see down there. It's just so
quick how that's happened.
Yeah.
And we like to think that that can never happen to us, and for the most part, I think it can
never happen to us.
But goddamn, how's it happen there?
How's it happen right there?
They have the control of, you know, when the mob gets big, they can control the government.
That's why, you know, they got, good you know goodfellas and the godfather
they did uh they're the ones that really pretty much ended the mob because they made it look cool
and it was all about the take off i mean that whole we were i don't think we were too far away
from the same type of thing i think a difference is that the mob was you know it's called organized
crime for a reason they They're very strategic.
I'm not sure if these drug wars going down in Mexico,
they seem to be a little bit more unorthodox.
They're very eager to send a message. That seems to be their main thing.
They will cut off heads and put them on your mailbox, you know,
if you fuck with them.
And, you know, the mob, they would just put a horse's head in your bed
or something like that, you know.
They wouldn't put a human head on your mailbox.
You're romanticizing the mob. The mob, they were nice. a horse's head in your bed or something like that. They wouldn't put a human head on your mailbox. You're romanticizing the mob.
The mob, they were nice.
My mom was a nice person, so she ran a few numbers.
But everybody was fine.
We killed a horse every now and then to keep you in line.
It's really interesting.
They really were.
You really think so?
In a lot of ways, yeah.
The city of Youngstown was booming when the mob was still, I mean, not booming, booming.
The steel industry was dilapidating it.
But it's better to have organized crime than disorganized crime.
And what happened when the FBI raided Youngstown, for example, and I mean, that's a small, not too small, but it's a pretty small scale of what obviously would be like in new york and chicago but what happened in youngstown was uh black gangs took over the bloods and the crips
in in a very very big way and then all of a sudden there's drive-bys and there's bullets
going through your window and leaving a mark on the other side of your living room wall
and it all becomes a reality whereas when the mob was there controlling the streets, other gangs, there was no other gangs.
But as soon as they got rid of the mob, they don't mind disorganized crime as much as they mind organized.
It's very bizarre.
Yeah, that is pretty crazy.
You know, that's what people say about Vegas.
You know, people, they always talk about the good old days when Vegas was run by the mob.
You know, the mob just ran Vegas right.
Everyone was polite.
Everywhere you go, you got a nice lobster.
People loved to talk about that.
The mob ran Vegas.
Yeah, they did.
Did you see the, speaking of Vegas, the video with, the film rather, with Michael Douglas and Matt Damon?
They played Liberace and Liberace's lover.
Did you end up watching it?
How was it? Was it on a Brokeback Mountain
scale? It's amazing. It buries
Brokeback Mountain. Really? Yeah, it buries
it. Brokeback Mountain is
Brokeback Mountain.
First of all, I don't
remember who said it. I think it was Ricky Gervais
said something really funny. I think it was
him that quoted this saying,
it's surreal watching Gordon Gekko
get fucked by Jason Bourne.
Because Matt Damon is Jason Bourne
and Gordon Gekko was Michael Douglas.
And Matt Damon is fucking Michael Douglas.
They show that?
Yes.
First of all, Michael Douglas is one of the baddest motherfuckers
that ever lived.
He is Liberace.
I mean, he fucking is him.
Wow.
It's amazing.
I mean, if you watch Liberace
and watch the films
and watch like how he talked and behaved,
I mean, he literally is him.
It's amazing.
The transformation is spectacular.
He makes you realize what a great
actor he really is.
And Matt Damon, too. You fucking
buy it. You buy it hook, line,
and sinker. You know he's Jason Bourne.
Okay? You know he
was the guy from Good Will Hunting. You know
all those things, and yet you still
buy it.
Hook, line, and sinker.
They are two bad motherfuckers.
And before I saw it,
I was like, how good could this be?
Jesus Christ.
You're shaving your balls and waxing and oiling it up.
No, before that.
I don't watch
gay films naked.
Anyway.
The acting in it
was incredible. The story though is really
It's kind of a weird story
Because all it is essentially
Is one guy who got pissed
That Liberace didn't want to fuck him anymore
So he told the Liberace story
And the Liberace story
To be told in this film
Is basically that Liberace liked to fuck
He was really super talented
He liked to play music
Most of the old ladies came to the show, didn't know he was gay.
And after the show was over, he wanted to get guys and fuck them.
You know, and like, that's it.
Like that's, he, and you know, he's painted out to be this like horrible, horrible, horrible person.
But in reality, he was just a guy who had $500 million and liked to fuck.
Yeah.
You know, I mean, he really didn't hurt anybody in the movie.
He kicked the guy out when the guy got crazy,
but it also is interesting because the guy
who Matt Damon is playing,
like his character in the movie,
is hooked on pills and all these amphetamines,
and you watch Matt Damon's character
change his personality.
It's fucking great, man.
I love great acting.
It's amazing to see how some actors,
you know, a lot of great actors and
play some of the same types of characters through movies the most impressive to me is uh Walter
White um uh Bryan Cranston Bryan Cranston because I didn't realize until like season four or five
of Breaking Bad I don't know if you watch it oh yeah, but but he also plays the dad in Malcolm in the middle Oh, yeah, like this positive happy like whoo-hoo and Walter White is the complete opposite of that
He's so he's got so much to him and he's not just a something. That's just a little
Bleak character like the Malcolm in the middle dad
He's so developed and it's so deep and so emotional and you see so much of it that that agility that
he could play that guy and that guy yeah and he plays that guy so well he wins like every year
pretty much uh or at least a few now for his work on that and to think that he can play that guy too
just a malcolm in the middle dad he's his portrayal of a teacher is so goddamn good. I mean, he sets the parameters
of the way a teacher would behave
so perfectly and precisely.
It's masterful.
It really is masterful.
He's incredible.
It really is.
Yeah.
The guys who can do that,
you've got to really admire that.
That's just such a very,
it's such a very specific level of acting.
You know, there's like Daniel Day-Lewis, which I harp on too much,
but it's that level of acting.
It's so much different than most of the douchebags
you see at Starbucks going through their scripts.
Totally.
And Cranston's such a cool guy, too.
I don't know if you saw this, but at Comic-Con,
you saw the thing with the mask,
and then they brought him up for the panel,
and he took off the mask.
The place went crazy.
Why do I feel like we played Liberace music on this podcast before have we no this is what i
want to pull up then i want to pull up the song when liberace winks at me because this is like
this was like some real shit this is in 19 you know 50s ish when liberace was like you know i
guess this was like a scene in a movie and a woman is singing a
song about how enthralled she
is by Liberace and
it's amazing
first of all it's amazing when you stop and think
about how much our culture's changed since then
because this is like you know whatever the hell
it is 19 what does it
say what year does it say
1955
1955 watch this shit this is incredible it's like a strange time
machine oh it's just there watch this liberace and libby morris she's sitting in front of her tv
and she's on her knees in front of a little desk writing a letter and she's
staring wistfully into the TV while Liberace plays piano. He's so handsome.
And he winks at you and when he winks, he clinks. to join your fan club it would simply be divine i found a brand new idol
he's charming as can be
look at this
it's so weird. Watch this.
Watch this.
Clink.
That's a weird noise.
That loud clink is his eyeball. How fucking weird. I'll tell you what, man. You can't compare With Charlie Manning
How fucking weird
What made you continue
Listening to that?
I'll tell you what man
After that movie
I went on a Liberace kick
For several days
Wow
I resisted it at first
Because I was like
What am I a Liberace fan?
But
And then
But somewhere along the line
Somewhere along the line
I embraced it
And I just started
Just googling Liberace and listening to interviews.
I watched him give a tour of his house.
It was weird.
His house was real regular looking on the outside.
But then when you went inside of it, it's like a fucking palace.
And he had a normal front to the house.
But then he goes, I had two houses built inside of it.
Inside the house, it's just this fucking massive huge place and apparently um one of his houses
one of his big houses is for sale right now i think it's palm springs i think that's where it
is but it's for sale real cheap like 500 grand like you could buy liberace's house and still
has like the painting over the see if you can find it Liberace's house for sale I bet his
house had a giant closet that he would well he sued he sued a newspaper in
England because they claimed that he was gay and he sued them in one apparently
Wow yeah there were different times back then.
For reporting the fact.
For reporting that he was a homosexual.
Wow.
Well, today, yeah, his mansion for sale for $529,000,
which is a lot of money for that fucking house
because you're never going to get it back.
Probably smells like shit.
It's all just dicks and shit.
When he died, apparently, he had like a half a billion dollars or something close to that
he was just so gangster what he did was so crazy he made his boyfriend get plastic surgery to look
like him so it goes back to like what we were talking about earlier he wanted to fuck himself
yeah that's what he wanted yeah he he made his boyfriend this handsome guy get a chin implant to look like liberace wow i mean that is going deep with the
crazy yeah that's going really really deep with the crazy fucking a man wow yeah a chin implant
here get a chin implant learn how to play the piano like a fucking genius.
Dude, he didn't give a fuck.
Wow.
He didn't give a fuck.
And he was a brilliant, brilliant fucking pianist, man.
I mean, he was like a fantastic pianist.
It was really, I mean, it's really amazing to watch.
Did he ever date Leno?
How dare you? How dare you?
How dare you?
I don't get it.
Leno has a big chin, too.
I've been around him for years.
Okay.
I see how this crazy fuck works.
Did you guys hear about the unmarked graves in Florida at the reform school?
Oh, my God.
Go back to July 31st on my Twitter, Brian.
You'll find this story. In Florida, a clash over exhuming bodies at a reform school? Oh my God. Go back to July 31st on my Twitter, Brian, you'll find this story.
In Florida, a clash over exhuming bodies at a reform school. There's this reform school in
Florida and it's called the, they're called the White House Boys. They were a group of men
and many of them now in their sixties and seventies who were sent to this reform school
when they were children. And they remember beatings where people were
beaten to death, where students there were beaten to death. They ran the place with an iron fist,
and when kids got out of line, they gave them frightening beatings and say they knew children
who died from the beating. So a few years ago, the state investigators said that they found no evidence that anyone at the staff of the school had been responsible for any
student deaths. But then these people, with the state's permission, they got a team of researchers
and they used ground penetrating radar to locate nearly 100 unmarked graves at the school.
More than a hundred. Oh, yeah.
So they thought it was 50 at first,
and then people were freaking out.
And then they found,
they kept finding more.
The state report said
that 50 boys were believed
buried in unmarked graves,
but said that it would not be possible
to identify and exhume the remains
from individual grave sites.
So then they started, like, admitting it.
And that's when forensic anthropologist
Aaron Kimmerly,
Kimmery, Aaron kimmery and aaron
kimmery uh got invested uh interested in the story so they use ground penetrating radar found a
hundred fucking bodies and now what's interesting is that the governor does not want them fight they
don't want them exhuming all these bodies they're trying to like keep the lid on this shit they're
like jesus christ so the government the governor Governor Scott, is fighting exhumation.
But Kimmery and her team are supported by Florida's attorney general, members of the legislature, and by Senator Bill Nelson.
This is incredible, man.
The state of Florida has the worst publicist in the world.
Everything out of Florida, it's never like great, like, hey, great stuff discovered in Florida.
No, it's either sinking into the ground, people killing each other, a hundred bodies.
A hundred.
A hundred bodies.
Where's these parents at?
Well, they're dead.
These people are, this is all from like the 1930s and shit.
No, but like when it happened, like, hey, my son never came home from school.
I don't know.
Hey, my other son didn't come home from school. I mean, I think you're dealing with, you know,
probably decades of, you know, one a year missing, you know,
and they have 100 fucking bodies.
I mean, I guess it's more than that.
It needs to be more than one a year, one every few months.
I mean, how many did they kill?
I mean, I wonder how long they were open for.
That's a good question, actually.
Let's say this.
Yeah, you would think somebody would be like, wait a second,
there's been 100 missing students in the last 10 years.
Just what they call them, the White House boys.
Ooh, this is so creepy.
Just think about this group of men, many now in their 60s and 70s,
who were sent to this school when they were children,
who knew boys that had been beaten to death.
Ugh.
Jesus Christ.
That's insane.
Yeah, man.
Brutal, brutal beatings.
Florida has a website, or a Twitter account,
called Florida Man.
It's underscore Florida Man at Twitter.
It is maybe the best Twitter account ever.
It's all shit that dudes who live in Florida have been arrested for.
I mean, and it's updated all fucking day, every day, and it's awesome.
It's awesome.
Florida man tells police he has a gun, so they'll respond to his 911 call quicker.
Florida man to cops, I'm not going anywhere until I get my weed.
It's humidity, man.
Humidity drives people crazy.
Florida man arrested twice in one week for sex with dogs.
Florida man taken to police station for driving without a license.
Urinates on x-ray machine and detention officer.
Florida man stops to help woman after motorcycle crash
steals her purse.
Oh, I know.
I heard about that.
Did you hear about that?
No.
This woman was in
a car accident.
She was trapped
in her SUV
and this guy came up
and just stole her purse
and then left her in there.
Florida man leaves
six-year-old son
in crashed car
because he thought
his driver's license
was suspended.
It wasn't. Wow. Florida man crashes six-year-old son in crashed car because he thought his driver's license was suspended. It wasn't.
Wow.
Florida man crashes car three times in one night of drunk driving.
Wow.
Three times.
How is that even possible?
Oh, man.
People are awesome.
But Florida is just so strange.
It's just so strange.
There's a whole weird thing going on over there, man.
That old swampland, that's like the devil's gooch.
Yeah.
Just swamplands and fucking, they put Disney World there,
but it's like, doesn't seem like Disney World should be in the middle of that state.
Yeah.
Well, you know what they said about Florida, that within this decade,
within the next 10 years, they believe that Miami is
going to be underwater.
It's like their most recent estimates.
They're worried that Miami and a lot of Florida, the ground is apparently very porous.
And so it's not like New Orleans where you could set up a levee.
They're like, once that water rises, it's a wrap.
Yeah.
You know?
So I don't know if this is right, but if that's right, think about all those giant ass condos
that are like on the beach in Miami.
Those are all...
It's going to be like Venice.
It'll be like Venice, Italy.
It'll be way greater than that because there's going to be no one in those things.
Like what are they going to do if all that's under the ocean?
Like do you know how freaky it would be if you could drive a boat through Miami and see all these giant buildings in 10 years?
Do you think people wake up then and realize what the fuck is going on?
They're going to have to at some point.
People are going to be like, hey, man, I think maybe we should fucking stop building right on the water.
What do you think?
Right.
I think this water is coming up on us.
Oh, it's happening.
Do you see the videos of the North Pole that looks like a swimming pool?
No.
You haven't seen it?
Uh-uh.
It's fucking crazy.
See, if you pull that up, North Pole melting.
Wait till you see this.
It's like they have videos of Greenland and these Manhattan-sized chunks of ice are falling
off glaciers into the ocean.
Oh, my God.
It's like it's all happening
like right there it's like you watch it every day i wonder how long i mean i just don't even know
i wonder i wonder when like common sense and technology are going to just butt heads yeah and
people are just going they'll no longer be,
eventually there's going to be
no longer debates about things.
You know?
Like, hey,
is there global warming?
Well, here you go.
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop.
And just diagrams and stuff.
Yeah, there's a...
You know, I mean,
it's going to get realer
as technology keeps getting better.
The arguments are all going to end.
H.G. Wells had a great quote
that history is a race
between education and catastrophe. Wow. Isn't that a great quote, that history is a race between education and catastrophe.
Wow.
Isn't that a great quote?
Yeah.
He wrote that shit in the 1800s.
You know?
It just shows you,
people saw trends for how crazy shit is a long time ago.
It's just like,
we're hoping that one day
it's going to get to a point where it doesn't happen anymore.
But it seems like that's not
how it goes. How it goes is just
you manage the chaos
as much as you can
while it's around you.
What is this?
Supposedly a webcam
of the melting.
It just slowly starts turning into a lake
in this area
of the North Pole.
Let's see.
Oh, wow.
Oh, boy.
Oh, wow.
That's crazy.
That is so strange.
That is so strange.
Wow, you're watching something that was completely covered in ice,
and then all of a sudden it melts.
But we don't know if that happens every year.
Right.
Yeah, if it just went back to being frozen like two days later.
Yeah, maybe that was their summer.
Yeah, because you remember March of the Penguins?
There's that whole thing about it thaws out, and then they fuck,
and then they go and have babies and shit. And then it's was freezing cold out they have to hide the eggs you ever see that
no I didn't catch that movie it's an interesting movie but it's a brutal
existence these poor penguins they have to huddle up together to block each
other from the wind they just get together and stand up and the wind just
whips them fucking 50 below zero and just... And they're just trying to cover their eggs with their feet.
It's so primal.
Wow.
It's amazing when you stop and think about what kind of environment
that life is not just living in but thriving year after year,
year after year.
These things keep fucking in that same spot,
keep making babies,
keep walking miles across the ice to get to the ocean,
keep surviving,
and you complain when your internet goes down. get to the ocean, keep surviving, and you
complain when your internet goes down.
Yeah.
Penguins, I mean, they're just born in negative temperatures.
This is the suckiest spot on the planet, right?
Is there a suckier spot?
Would you rather live in the North Pole or in the jungle?
South Pole.
North Pole or South Pole?
Jungle.
I live in the jungle.
I climb a tree.
I don't know.
Is it?
Is it the same shit?
They're both frozen, aren't they?
South Pole's frozen like Argentina. There's glaciers in Argentina. I don't know. Is it? It's the same shit. They're both frozen, aren't they? South Pole's frozen like Argentina.
There's glaciers in Argentina.
Why don't we hear anything about the South Pole?
It's always the North Pole.
Because that's where Santa lives.
South Pole?
Santa lives in the North Pole.
Who the fuck lives in the South Pole?
Antarctica's the South Pole, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's creepy down there.
Yeah, it's tricky.
They don't even...
Is that true?
They don't even really know what's going on down there, by the way.
Is that true that the Anarchos...
I don't know.
And if you say to me...
Yeah, it is.
Antarctica's down there.
People say to...
Like, I got a lot of criticism when we did the Dan Carlin podcast.
Like, you're so ignorant for a man who's 40 years old.
About some shit.
Yeah.
But you know what?
I'm fucking honest about what I know and what I don't know, man.
Yeah, there's a lot of shit I don't know, but there's a lot of shit I do know.
There's no room for all of it, okay?
God damn it.
You can only know so many things in this life.
It doesn't make you stupid because you don't know things, okay?
You know what it makes you?
You're interested in other shit, folks.
People have to get that in their head.
Just because there's certain data that you should have
probably accumulated,
but if you haven't,
it doesn't mean you're stupid.
Right.
And people are so quick
to call stupid on people.
Right.
Like, there's plenty of shit
that I've done
that makes me stupid.
That's not one of them.
Yeah, South America.
It's below South America.
Antarctica is essentially
the South Pole.
Mm-hmm.
I just learned the other day
that we're still in the ice age
we are?
yeah if you look up ice age
we're still in that because it's a huge tens of thousands or whatever of years
and because Antarctica and the North Pole and Greenland or something like that
there's another one or Iceland or Greenland
because these things exist we're still in the ice age until they melt that we're still in that. There's another one, or Iceland or Greenland. Because these things exist, we're still in the Ice Age.
Until they melt, we're still in that.
Whoa, that's crazy.
Wow, I never even thought of that.
So until these frozen areas melt, we're still in the Ice Age.
So when the dinosaurs were around, there were no icebergs or shit?
I'm not sure about that.
I don't know whether that was in that period or not
of tens of thousands of years.
That's the hardest thing to wrap your head around.
Yeah. That this thing
changes so often.
It's just constantly the oceans moving
and changing. When I was in Montana
and we were hunting, one of the things
that was so weird was seeing seashells there.
You would climb these tall
hills and as you're climbing up,
the ground is actually like silt.
It's silt because that used to be the ocean.
That used to be the great western inland sea.
So as you're walking around,
you're walking in this real mucky,
sort of clayish, muddy thing,
and as you're walking up it,
you'll find seashells.
It's such a mindfuck.
Yeah, Joshua Tree,
you're looking at these rocks sometimes. It's like a movie setuck. Yeah, Joshua Tree. You're looking at these rocks sometimes.
It's like a movie set.
Because you're like, how's that a perfect circle?
How's that rock a perfect...
Who rolled that here?
How did this get here?
Well, you ever seen those rocks that they found?
I want to say Belize.
Belize stones.
I'm going to say Belize.
I loved that picture of you and the salmon that you caught.
That giant hog of a salmon. Your smile was ear to ear. Ari and I caught a bunch of you and the salmon that you caught, that giant hog of a salmon.
Your smile was ear to ear.
Ari and I caught a bunch of them, man.
Oh, you were up there with him?
I didn't know that.
Yeah, Ari and I, we did the Beartooth, I think it's called the Beartooth Lodge.
It's a badass place in Anchorage, and we went salmon fishing up there.
Did you eat those bad boys?
We didn't eat those because when we went, it was a catch-and-release time.
They base it on how many salmon come through the weir.
The weir is like salmon have to come into this box area,
and they count them, and then they let them through.
But right before we got there, we couldn't have asked for a better day.
Before we got there, there was like hundreds of salmon came through.
So it was like a crazy amount were in the river while we were there.
It was so fun.
They're so big.
It's weird, though, being up there and seeing moose everywhere.
Seeing moose and eagles and shit.
Alaska's amazing.
Have you been up there yet?
Not yet.
You guys got to do a show up there.
We're in the talks right now about it.
It's supposed to be, what, two days, four shows.
I don't know if.
Two days what?
Two days, four shows in Alaska. Where? And do you remember where days, four shows. I don't know if. Two days what? Two days, four shows.
Where?
Do you remember where it was?
No, I don't know.
Fairbanks or Anchorage?
Anchorage.
Where are you going to go?
Do you know the place?
I don't know the place.
Two days of shows.
It'll be fun.
You'll have a great time.
People up there are cool as shit.
The girl that's booking it said that it's one of those places that they never have anybody come out there.
So if anybody comes out, everybody just goes to the show,
no matter if they're a fan or not.
They just want, you know.
They find out about it because that's it.
Yeah, well, it's an awesome town, man.
There's something really cool about those people up there.
And I think part of it is because they're real bonded.
It's a real interesting kind of a community.
And they're very progressive, too.
We saw Christians for Equality, this big group of Christians for Equality.
They were standing on the corner with, like, the gay flag, the rainbow flag.
And they were, you know, like, waving these signs and, like, waving to people.
And people, like, honk at them when they drove by, like, agreeing with them.
It's kind of interesting.
You know, I didn't expect that in Alaska.
I mean, I don't know what my prejudice was.
I've never heard of that group before.
That says a lot about Alaska.
Christians for equality.
Normally Christians are very Christian.
Yeah, no, not up there, man.
It was really cool.
The shows were cool.
Everything about it was cool.
It's awesome.
You feel weird being up there.
If it's any trend
how much Canada loves comedy
the farther north you go,
then it must be like heaven,
comedy heaven up there
because I love,
the few times I've been in Canada
to do comedy shows,
it's always been
some of the highlights.
So I can't imagine
what it's like farther north.
Did you do Seattle?
Yeah, I've done Seattle
so much fun.
Seattle's fucking awesome.
Yeah.
They got a cool comedy scene
there too.
You know, they have a couple comedy clubs now.
They got that Parlor Live, too, that place that's connected to a pool hall.
I just did the Moore Theater up there with Tom Segura last weekend.
Oh, it was fucking so fun.
Seattle's a great place.
I did that venue, I think, with Jeff.
Does it have, like, church-like things on the walls?
Yes.
Like those big, yeah.
Yeah, they actually just shut down to do some renovations, I think, to clean it up.
But it's amazing, man.
Sakura is so fucking funny.
Yeah, he's very funny.
You guys got a show tonight, right?
Where you at tonight?

I'm oversaturated.
I know.

either.
How about that?
I'm tired of hearing
me talk as well.
If you're like,
Joe Rogan's everywhere.
I don't even like
being everywhere.
All right?
How about that?
You're like the opposite
of Liberace,
who wanted to
fuck himself.
Yeah, I don't want
to fuck myself.
But you can go fuck yourself.
How about that?
That's it.
Show's over.
Let's get out of here.
