I'm here with Brian and Aaron.
And if you're hearing this, I mean, you know, this episode we have with Graham,
we do not have comments at the top, and I apologize for that.
This month has been kind of ridiculous, schedulinguling-wise, it's been fun.
It's been an awesome time.
I mean, I'm home, I think, one day from November whatever.
I think I've gone 20 days, and so I'm home this one day.
And if you're wondering why we're not recording right now,
we're about to go to the Opry.
We're about to go to the Opry.
We have a show tonight.
So I came home for that Opry show and I'll leave tomorrow. And so it's been, this month has just
been super crazy. The shows have been awesome. So I'm sorry that we do not have these comments
for you this time. I truly would, I don't want to not do that, but it just got a little carried
away. We will, we will get it back. We will get it back for you. Y'all have been coming to the
shows and I can't thank you enough. The crowds have been unbelievable. Y'all are so nice and I
love getting to do this for you. So enjoy this. Sorry it's a little quicker one, but it's funny
and Graham K is in it. And yeah, I love every one of you. What's up, everybody? We are here with Graham K.
That's me.
That's you.
Yes.
Canadian zone.
Canadian zone?
Is that how you say it?
Canada.
Canadians.
Canadian zone sounds like a bad whiskey.
Yeah, it does.
It comes in a plastic bottle.
What was the whiskey that Canadians own?
God, I get a word just in the chamber, and there's no more thinking about it.
I just let it.
You're a confident man, and you should be.
Yeah.
Canadian zone, Canadian whiskey.
What's the whiskey someone, or Justin said this weekend on the bus,
it was a real name of a guy, like something Smith, E. Smith.
No, I can't remember.
Everett Smith or.
Yeah, something like that.
Never heard of it.
Yeah.
Joseph.
You were talking about a whiskey, and you thought that we were all talking about a guy.
A guy.
Yeah.
We're like, he's smooth.
Yeah, it's not like Jack Daniels.
It was just like.
I find him a little harsh.
Yeah.
Oh, do you?
Wow.
Yeah. He's a guy. Yeah. My dad went missing like. I find him a little harsh. Yeah. Oh, do you? Wow. Yeah. Yeah.
He's a guy.
Yeah.
My dad went missing after he hung out with him one time.
Yeah.
He'd be like, golly, what is this guy?
He's not a good guy at all.
So we have Graham here.
We just also found out that this seat goes back.
I also, we did just find that out.
And you're really excited about it.
I didn't know this could go back.
I've never been back because I didn't know you could make it do that.
One of the production people just switched my cup.
Yeah, why did they do that?
Does that mean I was drinking out of a dirty used cup?
Oh, you were.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
That's how we do it on Batesville.
I'm a germaphobe, and that's going to...
You're going to think about this the whole podcast.
Justin Smith.
Justin Smith.
No, that was mine
you've been on a bus with me i guess so it doesn't it doesn't help we use the same toothbrush i know
i get weird now i don't like laid back reclined seat nate this goes i just start reading you off
off yeah by the end of this i'm just'm just alone. Hello, everybody. Welcome to Nate Only Podcast.
Yeah, we've been on the road, living it up, as always, Graham.
We see Reddit.
We had some nice Nate Land on the Nate Land Reddit.
Saw Nate in Mobile last night.
The New Hour is phenomenal.
Nate's maybe one of the best comics that's ever lived on life.
I'm having trouble reading this.
He's on life.
No one's ever been better.
Graham K. quit comedy.
God, am I?
On stage, yeah.
Am I saying this right?
It made the trades.
No.
She said, also the show had a lot going on in the late show.
A drunk lady heckling both openers,
and a guy walked up to Nate during his set,
but it was still fantastic.
Also, Graham K. is a killer up there.
Highly recommend these shows.
There you go, Graham.
That's nice.
There was a guy that walked up on me
and laid down two business cards
and then said, I want you to make fun of me.
On stage?
I was on stage. She got up out of his seat. Got out of his seat, walked to the front, laid two business cards and then said i want you to make fun of me on stage i was on stage she got up out
of the seat got up see walked to the front like two business cards down and said i think i it
goes i just want you to make fun of me and i said i think you're doing a pretty good job yourself
yeah that was a good burn and then uh then did he have to go return some video
yeah yeah uh the crowd work is actually pretty good but i definitely don't want to do that more
so if you're hearing this that's not just have fun and enjoy your next hours is gonna
be a crowd work yeah yeah yeah i mean it really did work out look it's maybe not you know a bad
thing to every now and again you have something happen but you just don't want it to you're almost
too big to do crowd work now it's like you up there in the fourth level. What was that? Yeah.
Here we go.
They're too fat.
Yeah.
You're too big of a guy, right?
You have people way back.
Yeah.
Arena.
Yeah.
What's going on?
Top row.
You got a question?
87F.
87F.
Shoot it down this way.
That's all you hear you stink
when I start comedy
2003
you just
real advice
this is good
this is a good show
yeah
also
also for reddit too
if anybody
my sister
I found out
and I guess there's a Nate Bargetzi Reddit.
There's the three of us on the show.
Look at that.
Yeah, there you go.
And she's on there as an admin, whatever that is.
Oh, really?
But helping out.
Your sister's an admin?
Yeah.
Oh, that's nice.
She's a mod.
A mod.
Yeah.
So it's like...
So there's a Nate Land subreddit, and then there's a nate bargetti
subreddit yeah yeah yeah you guys got your own subreddit that's fine yeah because abigail now
just texts me with all the questions that they ask
here's yeah they got someone on the inside yeah so yeah so abigail just goes
and i mean i'll just get you know what's that that shoe you wear? Like, you know, none of that.
You're going to get some homemade shoes.
Yeah, I got to get like, yeah.
Some psychopath's going to whittle you some shoes.
They do that on the email, but I just make stuff up.
I'm not going to bother you with it, so I just take a guess.
Or sometimes, depending on what it is, I purposely tell them.
Well, Abigail makes me get involved.
Everyone thinks, well, not everyone.
Most people think no now that I return.
But some people still, and they'll send you this long, heartfelt email.
And then I have to reply back as you.
And I have to misspell words and say some stuff just to make it more authentic.
And they'll be like, breakfast is a stick in the, you know, like,
I have to like, yeah, I hear you.
He's a problem.
We're working on it. We're working on it.
We're working on it.
This morning we worked out and the workout guy, for whatever reason, Matt, so for whatever
reason, like the countertops came up in conversation and they kept calling it granite.
You said a granite?
Granite.
Well, that was the guy with the cards.
Oh, right.
I was telling that story.
That's it.
The person laid the card, the business cards.
I picked them up.
One was a real estate agent, and the husband sold granite countertops.
Yeah, yeah.
And I was like, oh, y'all in the – I think I said it on stage.
And then I was like, y'all are in cahoots.
Your wife just goes and sells a house.
And she's like, the only bad thing is there's no granite tops.
And she's like, but I know a guy that could probably do it.
It's collusion.
But he told that story.
And I was like, man, I just can't even get past how you say granite.
And then Matt goes, i thought that i was wrong
turns out matt used to work in a granite factory countertop factory but nate was saying it was so
confident he was like i guess i was wrong the whole time i worked in this factory i was wrong
maybe that's why matt didn't have a very he told us he didn't have a good time there maybe that's
why because you're mispronouncing everything you're trying to sell kluge fitness matt he's great he's great uh yeah i say yeah i think i said granite on dead
gum and i said it on stage probably i think everybody just rolls with it now oh yeah i
think they know yeah and then they yeah and they do it that's everybody knows yours you don't
respond to every like the email like pretending to be though. I don't want people to think we're... If there's one, I will get it.
No, I don't really pretend to be you.
But sometimes they will send it directly to you telling you how much they enjoy the show.
I'm just going to reply and say, thank you so much for coming.
I don't really pretend to be you.
Yeah, yeah.
That's the one people think of.
They send some big heartfelt thing.
I'm not going to look at it or something.
I'll look at it.
I appreciate it.
Yeah.
That's the idea of Brian doing that.
It's funny, though.
Just going, hello.
I am Nate.
I'm writing this to you on my granite,
N-I-G-H-T, counter, countray top.
Did you enjoy the theatry show?
Do you also think that that uh bryan

thinking about paying

even i would make yeah he
deserves it yeah do you
think that's something that
nate would go for i mean
me me would go for me Nate would go for? I mean, me?
Me would go for?
Me, I would go for something like that?
Yes, I do too.
Yeah.
What were you going to say?
You had something.
Oh, I was going to say granite.
It's one of those.
No, get into it, Aaron.
I'm saying that's one of those, if you had said that, I would have
think, oh, that's just an alternate pronunciation i've never heard before
and i wouldn't want to sound like such an idiot insurance uh do you mean
granite dude and you'd be like no actually there's a whole nother way yeah
because you're a good guy and graham's not that's right
yeah i need every upper hand i can get grandma yeah
and grandma yeah that's gonna be yeah everybody calls it nick mick they'll call you grandma
anti-grandma anti-grandma i don't know that's good i don't get it i don't get it either i was
trying to quote seinfeld anti-dentite yeah i'm trying to anti-grandma yeah yeah yeah you're
anti-semitic anti-grandma that's what it is it's something with that anti-dentite Anti-Semite? Anti-grammar? That's what it is. It's something with that. Anti-dentite. Anti-dentite.
Well, you're an anti-dentite.
That's a great, you know. Fred next year
said they should have their own schools. They do have
their own schools.
Alright, this week
we are talking
about the 2010s.
Graham, let me
ask you something. Yeah.
We've been doing all the decades, the 90s, pretty much everyone calls the 90s, 2010.
I think people call them the 2010s.
What do you call the 2000s?
So here's the thing.
I have been saying this for-
It's a leading question.
Okay.
All right.
You're right.
What do you call the decade in between those two?
20 years I've been saying this.
Okay.
We had the 20s, 30s, all the way to the 90s.
Yeah.
And then the year 2000 happened.
I was a young boy and I was like, what are we going to call it?
And there was no answer for a decade.
And then I was like, a next decade happened.
I was like, what are we going to call it?
And everyone just, they just said that they called the whole 20 years the 2000s.
They say early 2000s, late 2000s, which makes no sense.
It's the, you know, I mean, I go, okay, fine.
You can go early 2000s or the aughts is the first 10 years.
And the next 10 years, I still, the teens, that doesn't make any sense.
What about, you know, 10, 11, 12?
There's no answer.
It pisses me right off.
I don't think anybody's saying the late 2000s.
That would be...
The late 2000s makes no...
It's 2,990?
Yeah.
That's the late 2000s.
Yeah.
Right.
He said it, though.
You call it the aughts?
I mean, the early aughts, I guess.
I guess you call the whole 20 years the aughts.
No, I'm talking about the 20 years.
2000 to 2010.
Is aughts.
2000 to 2010 is the aughts. No, I'm talking about the 20 years. 2000 to 2010. Is aughts. 2000 to 2010 is the aughts.
Yeah, yeah.
I've never heard that.
I hear most often the early 2000s is the first 10 years.
I would just say, now I'd say 2000s.
Now I'd say, I like 2010s.
Okay.
And then it'll be the 2020s and 30s, 40s.
Then you're back into like 1900s, 1910s.
Like you just do that.
Well, now we're in the 20s.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Here's the thing.
It's 2021.
We're halfway through 2021, people.
Yeah.
And we have not...
No, I don't hear 20s in popular culture.
You don't hear it.
I do not hear it.
Psych guys.
Yeah.
So we don't have it yet.
We're still on this charade.
Of the early 2000s.
Just floating in purgatory. Not grabbing onto anything. Man, I have it yet. We're still on this charade. Just floating in purgatory.
Not grabbing onto anything.
Man, I have a nerve.
Yeah.
I want to know where I am.
Where am I?
Where am I?
Where do I live?
What am I going to tell the other earthlings?
I want to tell my grandkids when I did stuff.
Yeah.
I meant to ask this last,
during the odd episode,
but I forgot,
but do you remember where you were in comedy
when you started this decade
and when you finished?
So basically,
Same spot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not a lot of movement.
Not a lot of movement.
Were you in high school?
Actually backwards.
Yep.
Yeah.
So like 2010?
Yeah.
Yeah,
I was about,
I graduated high school that summer. All right. Yeah, that's 2010? Yeah. Yeah. I was about, I graduated high school that summer.
All right.
Yeah.
That's where I was.
2010?
Yeah.
2010?
Yeah.
Someone, Laura showed me a picture.
It was like a meme or something of an Iowa, it was either Iowa History Museum or a history
thing.
It's a computer with that blue back on the top of it.
That's already in the history museum.
Yeah, that original iMac.
Different colors, orange, green, blue.
It's in a history museum. And that's
a joke they say to millennials.
Which I, technically,
you're like, I mean,
whatever I use, they're going to be like, well, there's
not even a thing. It's crazy
to think, I saw
this thing invented
and then it's already in a
history music the automobile it's like when when red comes out of prison and shawshank it's a sure
it's faster out here yeah never seen it he's never seen shawshank yeah i forgot i know i'm going to
i uh i did the last show with you of 2019, and it was in Atlanta at that theater.
Oh, yeah.
And we talked about what was your first show of 2010, or first show of the decade, last show.
You said you were at Eastville, you think, doing a show in front of 20 people.
Yeah.
And then your last show of the decade was 2800, I think, at that theater?
Yeah.
That's awesome.
Yeah, it's awesome. Yeah, it's awesome.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
Yeah.
I have a little slightly less of an uptick.
Yeah.
Different.
Were you in the U.S.?
20 people.
Then he was back to 15.
Yeah.
We lost a couple.
We lost a few.
That club shut down.
No, I-
Eastville's still open.
I was probably doing the same thing in the beginning of the decade.
And it's a couple years ahead of me.
And then in New York, I was in New York.
And then in 2011, I had to move back to Canada for almost four years.
And then 2019, I would have been in New York.
And I started working at the...
You were much different and like the back back then
you're in a lot more places people know you've done oh yeah i'm i'm i'm joking i'm like now i'm
a you know a national headliner which is nice you know i make a living i don't have a day job
having a day job in eight years. Yeah. 2010s.
Begin 2010, I was a waiter and a bartender who would get fired every six months.
And now, and then, you know, this decade, I haven't had a day. I can't remember.
Like, it's been so long since I've had a day job.
Yeah.
That's something.
That's a win for sure, man.
I have savings somehow.
Wow.
I remember when you had your day job. somehow wow i remember when you had uh your day
job well i remember when you go back to canada too like that was so crazy like yeah because your
green card was expiring or something right well yeah well i i was like on a tourist visa the whole
time i was there and so it's just that was like it got to a point where like i needed to get i got
a conan audition and i wasn't legally allowed to do conan
yeah so i just was like okay let's do this properly let's do this right yeah and i tried
i was hoping to take a year and it just takes four years i had to save up money to hire a lawyer
cost like almost fifteen thousand dollars i took a huge loan and had to like basically become like a d-list celebrity in my country of origin in order to
like achieve all the little check marks that you need to basically prove to the american government
that i am so funny that i won't be on welfare when i come here that i will contribute to society and
not take away yeah and in order to prove that you have to like do a zillion things and hire a lawyer to make
sure all of your things are in order and you do it right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you went up in Canada.
I mean, you actually, you did a bunch of stuff.
It was great.
That's when I first.
You wrote it on a TV show.
Yeah.
I mean, you get the experience you got.
Yeah.
It was awesome.
I mean, I like, within a year, I didn't have a day job.
I remember I worked at a restaurant
for years and i i hated it and like people treat you treat you badly and then and i remember just
being like one day i'm gonna be a full-time comedian and i'm gonna walk into my job and be
like you stink you stink you're cool you stink you know do one of those big things and i got i
booked a axe body spray commercial and i had a two uh a tour out
west in canada for two weeks and i was like i looked at like my finances and i was like i looked
at my bookings and i was like oh my i think i can quit my job yeah oh my god and like so i went on
tour for two weeks and i came back and i walked into my my job and I was like so excited to just let it all out and be like, you stink, you stink.
I walked in.
They fired the manager and completely changed the staff and no one remembered me.
No one knew who I was.
In those two weeks.
In those two weeks.
I was like, who are you?
And I was like, ah.
Hey, do you know where those people are working right now?
You just go find them new jobs.
Hey, man, I'm trying to get back on my feet.
Well, you can tell them now.
You want to throw out some names who stink?
Cicor, you're over it.
I don't remember their names.
But they know who they are.
They know who they are.
They know who's the stink and who's the cool.
That's right.
And when did you live in the 250-square-foot apartment?
When I first moved to Toronto, I wanted to live on my own and it was
this the size of this room and i had everything in it toronto's super expensive right yeah yeah
it's like almost like new york prices but i got it was 600 bucks and all everything was included
this is like 2011 10 years ago and um and like I had to pay in cash.
I paid a Russian guy in the basement in cash.
And there was a guy who lived beside me or below me.
And he had a bunch of like, it was a kind of building where this guy had a bunch of printed out of a printer Harley Davidson logos.
And he had a bunch of like handwritten like cops keep out
it was a good building
you have your own bathroom? I have my own bathroom
oh that's good yeah it was a fully contained apartment
one time I was like partying
with some friends and my friend
was like you know that girl likes you and we were all going
back to my apartment to like
hang out and like basically
you know sit on my bed
yeah and and drink and uh she came like a bit later and then and everyone left and uh and i was
like my buddy was like so what happened with that well she didn't like me when she saw my apartment
i got she walked in my apartment like oh this guy yeah she like walked in the building probably and
there were spider webs and like she's just like this guy with cops this guy. She's like walking the building probably and there were spider webs and she's just like,
this guy with cops, keep out.
It's like, ah, this guy's probably not a good investment.
Yeah, yeah.
They go, that's very funny to think
that she comes in, everybody's there
and then she's like,
I'll just go over there, have a drink with him
and then I'll just go home after that.
We're having a fun night.
We'll sit in his living room.
We're going to have a good time.
And you walk into his whole life.
His whole life, yeah.
His whole life.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Everything's there.
No kitchen.
It had a kitchen and everything.
It had like one of the walls.
Yeah.
It had a sink and a microwave.
Everything's there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Everything.
Yeah.
It was like.
I don't think.
Did you mind it?
Like, I always think...
I always wanted to live in a studio apartment just because I liked the idea of being...
I just get my room.
Yeah.
I'm not going to do everything.
I used to lose stuff in there.
I'd be like, how?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Where could it be?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was good for that time in my life, but it's like all of a sudden you're like 32 and you're like, I don't have a car.
I live in literally a closet.
Yeah.
In this house, there's a closet that's the same size.
Yeah.
I was like, I got to...
So it gets old pretty soon.
Well, we don't have closets that big, but we're in a closet right now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, you don't.
No, I'm joking.
I'm joking.
I don't want – you're like, you know, I mean, your bathtub is bigger than when I slept.
We're not – this house is not $4 billion.
This is a regular house.
I'm just like –
I know, I'm joking.
This house is – but when you move back to anywhere that's
not a city for a comic this is like the biggest room is as big as as uh your apartment though for
real yeah it was yeah my which is crazy to think imagine you had a party in here yeah i i that's
the smallest apartment i ever had i had more after parties in that apartment. Yeah. Now I live in a two bedroom by myself and it's like hard to get people.
Yeah.
Come on.
They always.
I live in a good neighborhood.
Yeah.
They always feel, I think people just don't want, you know, it's like when you're, when
you have that, they don't want, they know we can go over there and like, it's not my
home and I don't care.
It's like a fun, it's almost like fun to hang out yeah in
that scenario then we start hanging out of the house i guess you know because it doesn't matter
in that little tiny place it's like this is temporary this is not an investment yeah all
this furniture is a dollar yeah yeah it's like it was fun would you try to go to bed when your
party's still there you guys just have fun i'll be over uh i'm gonna go i'll be on this side of your back and then you
yeah he goes guys everybody have a good night i'm gonna just crash and then you sit down on
your bed like you make that statement from the bed i just close my eyes you're laying on the
bench hey i'm gonna crash real fast yeah those eyes closed and everybody's still sitting there
no it's cool it's cool no no no don't worry's cool. It's cool. No, no, no.
Don't worry about it.
Should we go to the bathroom?
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Don't bother yourself.
You had a very funny joke
about how your microwave's
your alarm clock.
Yeah.
You set it for eight hours.
Yeah.
That's funny.
On potato.
Yeah, on potato.
Yeah, on potato.
Yeah.
All right.
So we're talking about the 2010s
or whatever they're called.
Two presidential elections.
Obama reelected in 2012.
Trump in 2016.
That's right.
Technically, the decades 2001 to, I mean, 2011 to 2020.
So I guess there was three new presidents.
Oh.
Technically.
Is that like every, is that just?
I guess that would happen every so often with the calendar right
yeah
but not
like what's every 40 years
yeah
or something like that
yeah
in 2011
Osama Bin Laden
found him
killed him
had news baits
we were all big fans of Osama
I know
yeah
Nate called me crying
when it happened
yeah
I didn't even know each other yet
yeah did you hear yeah did you hear it it's all gonna crumble over there happen. I don't even know each other yet.
Did you hear?
Did you hear it?
It's all going to crumble over there.
They had a good thing going over there.
Watching people,
I think there was a big baseball game happening.
Everybody checking their phones.
That was cool.
John Cena announced it at a
WWE event.
I just got some news.
Oh, my.
The place goes nuts.
Yeah, if you want a man in jorts, you're going to bring that information.
Yeah, like he got the news.
He heard somehow more, you know.
Just like everybody else.
The president.
They go direct line to John Cena.
Yeah.
He'd be one of my first calls.
You want to go tell the news stations?
They go, let's do Cena first, and then we'll do the news stations they go let's do cena first and then we're doing more more people watching that yeah yeah we joked that he kept his
phone in his jorts yeah apparently he did i know that he kept all his stuff his idea that john
cena always had like his jeans he had like his keys and like some gum before he walks out there
he's gonna take his wallet out he's gonna going to be like, hold on a second.
That's why when he body slams somebody or when he drops on top of them with his leg,
it hurts extra because there's just keys going.
Keys in it. You always see, everybody
picks up the change that falls out of his pockets.
That's part of it. I got a John Cena
dime.
A couple of royal weddings.
Well, that's exciting. I can't believe
I forgot those Yeah
Prince William
Kate Middleton
And Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
Prince Harry and Meghan
Had the bigger viewership
Oh yeah
1.9 billion
Then the other
The other ones
About a billion
Yeah Kate Middleton
Really got overshadowed
By Meghan Markle
Didn't she
Yeah
And she's like the
Middleton I feel like
Is like what they
What they want
That they want That's like You know she's like the – Middleton, I feel like, is like what they – What they want.
That they want.
That's like – you know, she's like Princess Di.
She's the – you know.
Do you think Canadians care more about the royal family than Americans? A hundred percent.
Yeah, because you've got the relationship with the –
Yes.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yes, we were the – what's it called?
Good – oh, my gosh.
Good, now my brain's broken.
Oh, my.
Commonwealth.
Commonwealth.
I kept saying goodwill.
No.
Yeah.
Goodwill.
No.
Brain.
We discussed this.
Good money.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Commonwealth.
The Commonwealth.
Basically, yeah.
So that's where you, so y'all celebrated, y'all like queens and kings and.
Well, I mean, my generation doesn't care.
Yeah.
I think my mom is the last generation to really care.
She's like, my mom is an immigrant and she loves the queen.
She's like, she just loves the whole thing, the pomp and ceremony.
Yeah, my mom loves it too.
Yeah.
An immigrant from England?
No, she's from czechoslovakia
and the commonwealth's there nope no okay yeah that's what i'm saying it makes no sense yeah
she just loves it though it's but my mom makes her feel more canadian maybe yeah i think it's
but my mom loves it i think it's a big mom thing that's what i'm convinced of it's a princess
tailor-made for the his tailor-made for moms oh if you're
and if the ones and everybody that watched princess die so princess die was so big and so
i think that's the obsession with it and i think it's getting less and less now because it's people
don't know about it i mean it's still huge still billion people watching it but it's uh it's
princess die like i i i believe it's it's that generation of people that really watched Princess Di,
which would have been your mom, my mom.
They are just, they love the crown.
I mean, it's like a romantic kind of, it's crazy.
It's kind of a crazy thing.
There was a weight in my household when she died.
I just remember being a little kid and just being like, man, this is bad.
It was like, I don't know,
when JFK got shot or something, I imagine.
It was like a week-long problem in my house.
I was like, I just want to play with my cars.
Yeah, and you got to put your cars all in the funeral.
Yeah, in the funeral procession.
Look what I made, bro.
Just a Lego lady.
X's over her eyes
and the
he's in the
pickup truck
yeah
I'm doing my best
it's a spaceship
she's bigger than the truck
I don't know
I'm
yeah
I'm sorry
I think there's
long live the queen
two Princess Di movies
coming out
oh really
yeah
just in the next few weeks
yeah
Kristen Stewart plays her
there be oh yeah just coming up with there has never been one though right coming out oh really here just in the next few weeks yeah uh kristen stewart plays her and there
be oh yeah just coming up with there has never been one though right so that's kind of new there's
a big the crown had it all yeah yeah watch that yeah it's the only show my dad can get my mom to
watch with him this is a crown oh yeah yeah yeah they did uh yeah i was thinking that's like
everything that they make movies like they're now just doing prince ty it's gonna be tough now you're just watching i think they're making stuff too like
i feel like when they used to remake movies it was like very far removed from it i guess princess
ty is far it's a long time it's like early 25 years i graduate yeah 25 years though i mean that
was seinfeld's been off here for 25 years you know what I mean? It doesn't feel that old.
It was 97.
97.
So when I graduated high school, because I was at Liz Embree's house.
97.
To like new people, to like Gen Z, to them, Seinfeld is like the Andy Griffith show to us.
That's how far it is away.
Isn't that nuts?
No, but Andy Griffith's show was the 50s and 60s.
So when we watched Andy Griffith's Black and White ones,
we were, it was 40 years.
Okay, okay.
So like they're watching Seinfeld.
I mean, Gen Z, I mean, it's like, what's Gen Z?
Like Harper?
Okay, Batman.
Batman, the bat from the 60s or Star Trek from the 60s.
Yeah, but that's almost like-
30.
That's what I would have, when I watched that back then,
you're watching Black and White.
Yeah.
So-
I mean, it's pretty close.
Seinfeld, the first year was 89, so that's over 30 years.
So this was 60, and you watched it in 90, that would be 30?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I guess.
Isn't that weird?
But that would be, how old is Gen Z?
Are they 20?
Yeah.
Yeah.
They're like 22.
So they're only 25 years apart
it's close but it's
I don't like it
yeah I don't know
it's sort of
I feel like they used to make stuff
just not as close
it's like Princess Diamond
I always talk about that
they make these movies just over and over
the most unoriginal ideas.
It's just the same things.
They make two Princess Di movies at once, apparently.
Well, that's what they do now.
They come up with an idea, a time travel show.
This one, she lives.
Yeah, but it's like that kind of thing where you go.
Cool.
It's like, oh, this one's doing good, and people are like to hear, make it. They go, well, we're it's like it's it's like oh this one's doing good and people are
like to hear make it they go well we're gonna make it two for ours i i honestly there's not
i don't think much original thought in making stuff anymore no and uh they just want to do like
you know whatever all right perfect that's a re you know reboot of that or you know like whatever
they're doing that reboot of the 70s show
which I love them and they're amazing.
It's like, why don't you make a show
with them?
They're doing a 90s show for the 70s?
That's interesting.
So just
do a different show with them though.
I mean, I like them a lot.
Is it the same actors?
Yeah, Sarah Jo Rupp and Kurt Woodsmith.
Same actors. Which they did my pilot. I mean, I like them a lot. Is it the same actors? Yeah. It is? Sarah Jo Rupp and Kurtwood Smith. Yeah.
Same actors?
Yeah.
Which they did my pilot.
Which they're amazing together.
But make my pilot.
That was a different show.
We can see that coming.
These same actors just do a different show.
I don't know.
Here's an idea.
How about my show?
How about my show?
Set it in Nashville.
Which we brought. I don't know. here's an idea how about my show how about my show yeah set it in Nashville but they
it's
which we brought
you know
it's
I don't know
it's like
we're talking about
this is coming after
Halloween
but
like we're
now here
doing this
before Halloween
but like
they're coming out
with a new screen
which I'm very excited about
because I love screen
and so
I say all this stuff
about this
and then I'm
I don't you know and then I have my own thoughts.
And it's just my things I like,
and everybody should like my things and no other things.
I agree.
But they have a new Scream coming out.
And then I was thinking about Halloween.
We were talking about it last night.
Go make a new Halloween.
I mean, they are making a new Halloween.
How about this week?
I mean, go make a new thing.
Make a new franchise. Make a new franchise.
Make a new franchise.
Yeah.
They're doing all this stuff where they just make the same movie,
and they bring people back.
I get the idea of having another Scream, and this is a –
I love Scream, so I get even having new Halloweens.
I get the idea that they're fun.
There's a point where you want to go like,
guys, start thinking about creating a new thing. a new superman do a new superhero that's just completely
new and different and do that kind of stuff create a new world that people can do like i don't think
they do that as well is that what harry potter was or was that made off a book it was a book first
yeah but it's like that was a whole new world right yeah right it's like game of thrones was
a whole people want these new worlds and they don't do that they just go what about this again well it's this these are
huge franchises before their movies right so they know it's going to be a hit movie because it
already has this built-in fan base that's going to watch it even if it's bad even if they yeah but
go bake for that instead of just going you know i always thought that when people adapt a book to a movie
is it you know it's like well the book has got to be amazing and so books are basically amazing
right because it's like you beg and then uh and then like he said that you got millions of people
bought it and read it and loved it so they know the movie will make money i know but that's what's
so funny like then start making movies like books like do something because if the books are so amazing
and those guys that write the books the people that write the books are so great at it and they
make this such a compelling story and there's new characters there's new this i know there's even
the same guys what's the main guys that write all the main books uh the the authors yeah what are
the main big authors tom clancy or grisham yeah like grisham that's all different stories right
so this dude's made a whole series i mean he's all his books is just a different story it's not
like he's going there's one character and i'm gonna do 40 books with that character this guy's
so creative that he's just, it's different worlds.
Maybe he has one that does three.
Maybe there's more.
And by the way, I don't know if it's true or not,
but if you look at that aspect, you're like, well, make stuff like that.
You're having the guys be, people are so creative that they're making,
they have a, they've written 50 books, and they're all 50 different.
Yeah.
And there's not the same character.
It's the same style, but that's how creative books are.
I just think they're out there.
All those things are out there.
It's just that the studios seem to be more risk-averse than ever.
Yeah.
So they're just like, if we make this superhero movie,
we know and we don't have to worry about a lot of dialogue.
We just make,
as long as it does,
people are going to watch it in America
and it's going to do well in China.
Yeah.
And those are the two biggest markets we care about.
And the less dialogue,
then the better it is
because the more sense it'll make in China.
Yeah.
So there'll be less dubbing and all that.
So they just do these superhero movies
which are just,
you know.
Right.
Yeah.
There's like no. It's a factory. Yeah, yeah, it's a factory so but you know things go in in in ebbs
and flows and i think that we're kind of coming to the end like people are pretty i think people
are like you are like bored yeah getting pretty bored yeah i mean i was bored from the beginning
yeah yeah but you're kind of like you know and there's people that are super into it i mean i people got mad because i uh with the marvel stuff and i get the idea but
there's a point you want to go like you don't want anything new like you know and then all
they're doing is aren't they doing the comic books are they even creating a new storyline
or they just basically like they take the comic books there's no comic books there's all sorts of new one i mean i don't i'm not a comic book guy but like i'll go in like i want i'm
always looking for stuff for my brother and so every once in a while i'll go to like a comic
book store like store and and then they're like what about this what about that this is a cool
new series and i'm like i you know it's there's a lot out there. Well, I mean, but that's creating.
Because they are creating.
Yeah.
And then the movie industry is not.
They're not creative.
Nope.
And they're the ones that...
They're the suits.
The suits are not creative.
They're just one.
They're just a factory.
I'm becoming a hippie.
But the thing is...
That's what I feel like I'm becoming now.
I'm going to be in a a van i rode in a van this
weekend and i'll be honest pretty awesome that's pretty good yeah uh like an answer no no i'm
looking up old trucks now i think i do want to buy an old truck old trucks are cool yeah i think uh
i've started looking up some old trucks because uh i just think there's too much i mean i want like i like cool like i'm
not the biggest car guy but i like to like if you see this one there's a mercedes eqs that's going
to come out and it's unreal dude it's electric it's uh the inside of it looks insane it's the
coolest car i've ever seen in my life and then then my phone will ring, and I'm furious because I just hate it.
There's 11 buttons to push, and the tires might fall off.
Yeah, you just sit there, and you're like, it's just overwhelming to be like,
all right, man, I just can't.
And I want to just go sit in a one-row seat thing and drive a car.
Just a break.
No screens.
Just a break from screens.
Just nothing, and just sit there and drive a truck. This car is beautiful. I mean, it's beautiful. It's all screens. It a break from screens. Just nothing. And just sit there and drive a truck.
This car is...
It's beautiful.
I mean, it's beautiful.
It's all screens.
It's like a spaceship on the inside.
So much.
It does look like a spaceship.
It does.
It would be...
I would love to have that car.
You want it all screen or no screen?
Yeah.
Basically, yeah.
That'd be the best if you can get to that world.
But I just kind of want to get a truck or a Jeepep and just be like i'm just gonna go drive around in this
i would love that so i'm on the same i would if i ever like i've been one of the things that got
me through the pandemic is looking at used cars yeah just old cars and being like i could buy that
yeah maybe i buy that this is my favorite looking car of all time.
The Bronco that OJ drove, I think is such a cool looking car.
And now that's all anyone knows it as, is the car that OJ drove.
You get it to...
You get it in a different color, maybe.
You get the black bottom with the gray top.
Yeah.
With the red line in the middle.
That's cool.
That would be cool.
Yeah.
You just can't go all white because that's...
No, you can't do that. That's OJ. Yeah. You just can't go all white because that's No you can't do that.
That's OJ.
You know
three victims that day.
The Bronco.
Bronco.
Yeah.
And
Yeah.
That's the real victim.
That's the real victim.
That lady and the waiter.
Yeah.
Back to movies.
Top grossing movie
of the decade.
2010s?
yeah of the 2010s Titanic
that was the 90s
Titanic
E.T.
E.T.
that was just
what's that movie
with the blue
avatar
that was the 2000s
that was the aughts
oh
I remember all this
Harry Potter
2010s?
I said this to you
Harry Potter
no Lord of the Rings no these are different y'all haven't even been All this. Harry Potter. I sent this to you. Harry Potter.
No.
Lord of the Rings.
No, these are different.
Y'all haven't even been in the right decade yet.
I don't even care.
Just say it now.
Avengers Endgame.
Oh, that makes sense.
There we go.
That makes sense.
There you go.
Yeah.
Of course.
Then Star Wars,
The Force Awakens,
and then Avengers Infinity War.
Yeah.
There you go.
Top selling book,
Fifty Shades of Grey.
That makes sense.
There you go.
I thought that would have been earlier.
Of the whole decade.
According to this.
It was big.
And they made a movie out of it.
They made a movie out of it.
They made a few, didn't they?
Yeah, I guess so.
Ice Bucket Challenge.
Trying to be positive here.
I got a lot of negative here.
Yeah, positive.
Ice Bucket Challenge, that was like the first ever.
It was kind of fun because it was like everybody in every country was doing it.
It was like we're all connected doing this fun thing that ultimately had a good cause.
And it was, I don't know.
It was great.
Did you do one?
It was great.
No, no.
I've done a polar plunge, but I didn't do the ice bucket.
Did you get challenged?
I did, and I just didn't respond.
That's what I did.
Well, now you're getting challenged. People are doing it now, and they send it to you get challenged? I did, and I just didn't respond. That's what I did too.
Well, now you're getting challenged.
People are doing it now, and they send it to you, and you're like, yeah, we're kind of through with that.
It's like a push-up challenge.
There's like, hey, you want to do this challenge?
I mean, you're like, no.
It's like asking me to do the Macarena.
It's like 10 years ago, man.
You're like, yeah, yeah, come up with a new thing, dude.
I'm not going to film myself doing 40 push-ups for whatever.
I think the push-up one is actually for a guy that used to do that,
that gave his life.
So it's actually a good cause.
But they're all good causes.
But it's like all these kind of new things where you're like, yeah,
I'm not, you know, it's over.
We challenge.
I remember a guy, oh, it was social media,
and it was everybody challenging everybody. And they're like, oh, it was social media. And it was everybody challenging everybody.
And they're like, whoa, this is cool.
And then it was just-
It's funny how quick we get over stuff.
Well, it's too much.
So it'll be a month of that's every single day.
And then you kind of go, all right.
Yeah.
It was an eight-week period in 2014.
$115 million was raised. Yeah. They saw a 30% increase in funding. That all right. Yeah. It was an eight-week period in 2014. $115 million was raised.
Yeah.
They saw a 30% increase in funding.
That's great.
Yeah.
Only 30%?
That means like-
I mean, I did it, but I didn't give any money.
Yeah.
Most people did it and didn't give any money.
Yeah.
The guy who did it-
I was going to say, the guy who started that, he drowned.
Really?
It's true.
Really?
They started it?
He died.
Doing an ice bucket challenge?
No.
He fell off a boat or something.
Isn't that crazy?
Yeah.
I did not know that.
I didn't know that.
I'm not even joking.
Yeah.
I hope not.
Wow.
I mean, also, I could be wrong.
But I remembered that information, and it felt real.
He had ALS.
Multiple sources.
Right?
I guess so.
But he died.
Okay.
You know the guy
that invented the Segway?
Rode a Segway off a cliff
and died?
Yeah.
How did he ride off a cliff?
He was trying to
ride on the cliff
on a Segway.
Ride down it?
No, he was just trying
to hang out around the top.
This is impressive technology.
Watch.
And then it kind of took off
and then, wow. I is impressive technology. Watch. And then it kind of took off.
And then,
wow.
I don't know.
In 2014,
they had a Philadelphia Cup called the
Trocadero.
Hannibal Buress
did his routine
about Bill Cosby.
Yeah.
He'd been doing it
for six months,
but somebody recorded it,
uploaded it,
and then...
Cosby's in jail.
It is crazy
that he's in jail
because of a stand-up comedy set
that someone recorded
in the back of a room
that's like
it would never have happened
if there wasn't
smartphones out
everywhere
and
it's completely viral
it's crazy
yeah
yeah
yeah
changed Cosby's life
a little bit
I mean
how crazy is that
like it's
obviously
but it's
isn't he touring again yeah i
think he's for once too and then uh but it's he's yeah i i don't know if i talked we've talked about
but like it's crazy to me that he's he's someone that like joe paterno got killed i mean he killed
died immediately when all that stuff came like it was almost like the weight of all that was just on
him and then it's out and then i mean it was like two months, he's gone.
And Cosby's that old.
And this dude is like, I might tour.
And you're like, this guy might live for 40 more years.
Yeah.
He just does his, you know, he's just out there.
Out of spite.
Yeah, yeah.
In 2015, BuzzFeed posted an article featuring an image of a striped dress
and asked viewers to vote on the color of it.
Oh, man.
White and gold or blue and black.
It blew the internet up.
It became such a debate that everyone had to weigh in on it,
including the president.
Or blue and black.
Right?
White and gold.
White and gold or blue and black.
I see white and gold.
I see white and gold on that one. Yeah. Yeah, that's blue and black i see white and gold i see white and gold on that one
yeah yeah that's blue and black to me is it really yeah what do you see i remember but i
remember when this came out i think i thought the other the other way around yeah the right way and
then uh that looks black to you right now yeah black gold black and gold to me black and light
blue well that's you're being ridiculous
if everybody else thinks it really the answer the correct answer is blue and black blue and black
yeah there's not that doesn't look well there's just a weird filter on it or something yeah like
yeah those that say that are different you're you know it's almost like taking a bit all right i remember it being a crazy thing and then
just you're like okay look at that bottom one this is original uh like brighter yeah yeah this right
here yeah yeah blue and gold i could see blue you could say blue and gold brighter look at what the bottom says darker oh i guess you're white and gold blue and black but yeah i could see you know i mean what
this is the beginning of the end right there yeah that was a slow year yeah and what what came out
right after the words yanni and yanni and laurel oh yeah yeah those were those were all really big
yeah it's like young people heard yanni old people heard laurel or something yeah i didn't know it Yanni and Laurel. Oh, yeah. Yeah, those were all really big. Yeah.
It's like young people heard Yanni, old people heard Laurel or something.
Yeah.
I didn't know it was by age like that.
Geyser hearing is different.
Yeah.
Yeah, we learned.
We learned.
Previous episode.
Talking about I used to have a ringtone in elementary school that only the kids could hear.
Really?
The teachers couldn't hear it because it was such a high frequency.
And then we played a sound and the crew and I could hear it,
and these two old geezers felt pretty good.
Man, how old are you?
29.
He's about to lose it, though.
I'm right there.
What is it, 30?
I feel like as soon as I turn 30, I'm losing all that stuff.
Yeah.
I'm already going gray.
It's the beginning of the end, for sure. Yeah.
Well, you had a good run.
Thanks, man. Yeah, man. Let's get some bad stuff in here. like it's a beginning and the end for sure yeah well you had a good run thanks man yeah man

have i told this maybe i think some of it yeah and we were in new york and harper was
she was born in 2012 so she was you know two months old something like that and uh we did
they got her uh i i drove laura was to fly home. Her dad was up there helping.
And I drove, and then she got stuck.
And then I had to leave.
That's my thing that I always said was, in a hurricane, they tell you,
you got to be careful.
Please help out old people and babies.
And I left my wife with both of those things.
In 2014, Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 vanished. vanished yeah still one of the craziest things have you
watched the thing on that though no they went they just drove uh the pilots did like wanted to
do this i think one pilot not both but one was it's like committed suicide oh really i watched
the story i thought that was a different flight i thought it was this
one because i thought they did find pieces of this plane they did find pieces of that flight
i thought there was a different one the pilot committed suicide drove into a mountain or
something no no this one i believe he just kept going super high yeah and so i almost think every
you almost kind of like everybody falls asleep and then you kind
of die like that like and then that's what he wanted to do and then eventually it ran out of
fuel and and so that's why they had no idea where it was because it was like he was just
so high you could look that up and see if that's exactly the case but i thought i watched something
on there's these youtube videos about airplane crashes yeah that they re-show them like you know uh you can hear some of them where they talk
and it's computer generated and so it shows you like exactly what happens it's got it's pretty
interesting uh just you know like not that you want to watch these. No. You realize that most. I fly like twice a week.
Yeah.
But your biggest fear of flying is, you know, like the engine falls off and you just fall out of the ground.
Like it's like that just doesn't.
Yeah.
And it's always a mistake.
And that is, there's no, you can't, you got to just hope that doesn't happen.
But it's very rare for this stuff to happen.
They just don't do this.
And then it's usually if something goes wrong and it's –
I would say to be in a plane crash, being the worst thing ever as that would be,
your odds are like lottery odds.
Right.
You're – if you – I always try to think of the –
No, I think Malaysia, not long after that,
another Malaysian air flight got shot out of the No I think Malaysia Not long after that Another Malaysian air flight
Got shot out of the sky
Above Ukraine
Yeah
Oh
Same airline
Yeah
Yeah
Man
Bad decade for them huh
Yeah did it say why
I mean it's a bad year
So as far as I can tell
Just from scrolling through
There's all kinds of theories
Yeah
But there's not like
An officially accepted answer
Yeah
Of what exactly happened
I have one
Well that's actually
The best one i've heard
yeah you know just fly up and then everybody passes out dies he dies wasn't there a golfer
that died on a flight and they thought that happened stewart yeah so they do it uh yeah the
the they lose cabin and they fight they fly up next to him and then they're just all gone.
So sad.
Yeah.
And then he was amazing.
And I remember- I remember his outfits, man.
Yeah, yeah.
I remember when he died.
Like, I remember that.
Me too.
And I remember just thinking,
I was like,
when you heard Hal
and you're like,
I thought about his death a lot
for some reason.
It was when I,
I feel almost like,
when was it, 92?
I don't know.
It was like one of the-
A little later.
90, yeah, maybe.
It's one of those that-
99.
99, yeah.
It's like, I don't know, you just hear about it,
and maybe I was old enough to be like, wow.
Yeah.
That's crazy, you know?
Yeah, 22?
Yeah.
22, yeah.
I was old enough. I was 20. 20. Yeah. Yeah. 22? Yeah. Yeah.
I was old enough.
I was 20.
20.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A couple of crazy things that happened at the VMAs decade.
Lady Gaga wore a meat dress.
Kanye, Taylor Swift.
That was the last decade. We took a bath in the aughts.
It's crazy.
I agree with you.
It's nuts. That last with you. It's nuts.
That last decade, just...
It's like the first decade that I've been out of touch.
Yeah.
2010.
Yeah.
What?
Yeah.
And Miley Cyrus did the thing with Robin Thicke where she kind of shed her Hannah Montana
image.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
She did that art.
You remember the hide your kids, hide your wife?
Yeah.
Oh, that guy ruled.
Antoine Dodson?
Antoine Dodson.
He's now a substitute teacher in Huntsville.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Did he try to do comedy or anything?
I don't know.
I remember Angela interviewed him or something.
But he was like the hot, they made a song about it.
Oh, I remember.
Everything was auto-tuned?
Yeah.
I bought that auto-tuned song on iTunes, and I played it all the time.
Hodge Kids, Hodge White.
Yeah.
What was it?
I forget.
So it was a guy.
He lived in the projects in Huntsville, and they interviewed him on the news.
It was like someone loose.
Yeah.
Someone was loose, and he goes, you need to hide your kids, hide your wife.
Hide your wife. And they're attacking everyone out here or something. Yeah. Someone was loose, and he goes, hide your kids. Hide your wife. Hide your wife.
And they're like attacking everyone out here or something.
Yeah, yeah.
And it was like, yeah, and so it just went viral.
Good for him.
Hamilton became the highest grossing musical of all time.
It made $3.3 million over an eight-week performance.
Still couldn't pay me to watch it, but.
Really?
I'm on ball.
I guess I'll watch it on TV.
It's on Disney Plus, dude.
You can go watch it right now.
If it was Canadian Parliament, would you?
Oh, yeah, that gets me going.
Love that.
I never watch Hamilton either.
I just don't think I care.
Musicals are just tough.
They're just too sincere.
People love them.
I try to watch five minutes of it.
I go, I'm sure this is great, i mean i can't i can't watch some of those things where
i'm like this stinks everyone's dumb i'm like i'm sure i'm dumb yeah i just it's not it's not my
thing they're just they're singing when they should be talking dumb they're not even singing
they're rapping they're rapping so it's like oh oh, dude. I know the – what was the other one that the South Park people did?
Oh, the Book of Mormon?
Yeah.
And everybody was like, it's the best thing.
And I'm like – I never saw it.
Then I'm like, I just don't care anymore.
South Park's one that I missed out on.
Everybody loves South Park.
Yeah.
And I'll hear –
It's still on.
I always like it being told to me, the episodes being told to me.
Like Big J would always tell me the episodes. And I'm like like that's the funniest thing i've ever heard soder loves it so yes like i get like i love hearing them tell me and i'm like god i laugh so
hard but when i watch it i'm just like i just never can get into it for some reason but i mean
i get like the it's very funny.
It's just going to be like, if you're not into cartoons, you're like, I'm just not, you know.
I was into Family Guy, but.
Yeah, South Park, every time I watched it, I was like, this is brilliant.
It's hilarious.
Then I just never watch it.
Yeah.
Really.
For whatever reason.
Family Guy always made me laugh harder.
Love Family Guy.
Simpsons?
I love The Simpsons.
Well, the eight-year heyday yeah like seasons
three to nine two to nine like i said seven years yeah two to ten yeah both were both examples you
gave were less than eight years i know i was really dancing around that little eight year in your period. Two to three? Yeah. In your period.
Those are my days.
At the Oscars,
the Moonlight La La Land mix-up.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That was incredible.
That was incredible.
I'll be honest with you,
this was probably the last good Oscars.
You called me.
Yeah.
I was on the phone with someone,
so I paused it,
and then you called me right after, and you said,
did you just see that? And I was like, no, I paused it. And then you called me right after and you said, did you just see that?
And I was like, no, I missed it.
And then I said, I cannot believe I missed that.
And then you called me back and you're like, you know, if you paused it,
or maybe it already played forward.
You said you could still rewatch it.
And then I rewound it and saw it.
But you broke that news to me.
Oh, yeah.
I remember that.
Who was the guy that did it?
Warren Beatty.
Warren Beatty, yeah. I'll be honest with you. I almost think that's the last one I watched. Yeah. that news to me oh yeah i remember that who was the guy that did it warren baity warren baity yeah
i'll be honest i almost think that's the last one i watched yeah last oscars like i think it's been
just the worst since then uh-huh but that was like the first one where they were at least doing
some movies that you're like i've heard of those movies or moonlight or i don't think i ever saw
moonlight but it was at least the last run then they started getting into movies you're like i
don't even know your five movies I've never heard of,
which shows you the disconnect with Hollywood to be like,
you're only pumping out.
But they can't just do every superhero movie.
They're only making superhero movies,
and they don't promote the real movies they're making.
That's what I'm saying.
I agree with you.
They don't promote it.
So whatever good movie they want to do all those movies are
super heavy too by the way yeah everyone that gets it is like the heaviest yeah movie of all time
and so they're pumping this out to people and then they're like why is no one watching oscars
you're like we you don't even advertise these movies this movie wins an oscar and i don't know
if they make enough money to be the budget yeah
you have to live in uh the upper west side of manhattan to walk to be able to see it yeah yeah
so like what that you're you're killing your own into your art form by just going we want to make
billions here so there's a point you're like then don't do the oscars anymore you think the oscars
done before our lifetime like it just goes like people are just done with
i hope not because it's so great everybody loves it well because it's motivation to make
good movies that won't make a ton of money yeah you know i don't think it'll go i think it'll
they'll change best actor best actress and it'll just be best actor best person yeah which i best
i like i it sucks it'll be one less award but it should be that way
i think yeah i think it made sense before when every leading man there was only like
there was no leading woman roles but now that it's you know well you should make that best leading
character than best yeah you know so there's still awards but they they need to do oscars yeah no one's watching
these and so you got to do something yeah like there's a point you go what are you doing like
you know no one's watching you at all they almost got like the arrogance of the masters
but the masters everybody watches like the masters has an arrogance of, well, we're not going to do commercials this year.
He goes, well, we'll just put it out with no commercials.
We don't care.
We have money for all of it.
That's what they did one year.
They just put it out with no commercials.
Wow.
They could care less.
That's awesome.
Because it's the amount of money that they have.
And the Oscars has that kind of attitude.
And I don't know.
Do they have the money?
I don't know what it is.
I don't know, but it's so heavy.
You speak of movies like Forrest Gump or Gladiator
or Braveheart wouldn't win Best Picture.
And those were more mainstream.
They're still not dumb movies, but...
Forrest Gump's an amazing, amazing movie.
Yeah.
But it's like, go make that amazing movie.
I'd love if those movies came back.
Did not do well in China.
What's that?
Forrest Gump did not do well in China
because they just didn't get the references.
That's right.
Yeah.
So.
But now the movies are
very heavy and.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You have to like,
it has to be.
And the ceremonies
are heavy.
Someone with Down Syndrome
who discovers that,
you know,
they're polyamorous.
Yeah.
And then get shot in the head.
Yeah.
That's pretty good.
Save that.
Yeah.
You can make a movie.
Yeah.
Just check all the...
And he's bitten by a spider.
Yeah, yeah.
But he doesn't become Spider-Man
because he just got bit by a spider.
It's about the other guy
that got bit by the same spider,
but I guess Peter Parker
got all the...
Radioactive blood was gone
and I just got bit by a spider.
He just got real itchy for a bit.
Got real itchy.
The whole show was going like this.
It just followed him dying of cancer from radio.
It's a movie called Scratch.
The whole show was his...
Same spider, not the same potent.
Yeah.
Ow.
Jeez.
Eight of the ten years of the decade, the top three shows were the same.
NCIS, The Big Bang Theory, and Sunday Night Football.
Sunday Night Football is not a show.
No particular order.
I mean, they were all number one, but they were all top three.
Yeah, they always throw sports in there, and you're like, come on.
Yeah, it's not fair.
Yeah.
The broadcast of the Patriots-Ceball Super Bowl was the most watched program
in American television history.
It had, at its peak, 120 million people in America.
That same year, the Cricket World Cup had 2.2 billion people.
That's more.
Yeah.
That's so crazy.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
2.2 billion.
I couldn't tell you a thing about cricket.
I don't know how it's played.
An Australian tried to explain it to me, and then I was like, what?
Do it again.
And then he did it again.
I was like, I got to go.
I have no idea what.
Yeah, I'll see you later, man.
Yeah, I got to go.
It's a mix of baseball a little bit, right?
There's got to be some baseball in there.
Yeah, they got to throw.
The bowler, which is the pitcher, I think is trying to knock down the little sticks behind the batter.
Yeah.
That's all I got.
Is it baseball with two sports, with two bases, basically?
Swedish baseball.
Well, this is very funny.
I saw this.
Swedish baseball.
So some guy, when Americans were inventing baseball, some guy from a different country,
I think Sweden, came over and learned it and then brought it back and completely botched it,
trying to explain it.
Yes.
So there's this whole other sport based on his misinterpretation of how
baseball actually worked.
And I think the bases are aligned like this,
like first bases to the left.
And then he just forgot how the field was supposed to look and taught the
whole country that.
Abner Doubleday?
In Sweden?
Yes,
Sweden.
I'm pretty sure.
That's how they play baseball?
There's a league that's thriving and people play it.
It's just like wonky baseball.
That's so Swedish.
I love it.
Go here, then go there.
Go around first base to come home.
Your homestead.
And then we have a sauna.
We have a group sauna.
The home is a sauna sauna that's the foul line
parting path we all celebrate with cured fish
i love just that guy come back he goes no no where's first place he goes i think it's in the
middle yeah it's i mean even someone that's never heard of the game goes well why would they do that
oh it's finland it's finland sorry sweden
is there no sweden's like come on man we're crushing it yeah dude is there we have the
internet oh yeah yeah i can pull that picture in all right look at that picture so i love the home
field they stand they're like where's the dugout they're but they're behind the person what is that
guy doing it makes kind of no sense looking at it where's the pitcher? They're behind the person. What is that guy doing? It makes kind of no sense looking at it.
Where's the pitcher at?
Is he pitching right next to him?
I don't know.
It looks like there's a guy with a bat going to hit a guy.
Yeah.
There's a batter facing a guy with a baseball club.
Is there a video of this?
Yeah, I can find some.
Yeah, that's so cool.
I love this.
I love it, too.
Like, there should be more.
Why don't they do more of it, you know?
If you're listening, it's home.
First base is left of where the pitcher's mound is.
Here we are.
And then you run around the pitcher's mound, pitch the ball vertically.
Oh, you throw it up and hit it.
Yeah.
Is he on your team?
You're allowed three strikes.
A guy just dove.
There's no home plate.
The whole field is an infield.
It just looks so goofy to me.
And I'm sure that American baseball looks goofy to them.
Do you want to know the difference between Finnish people and Japanese people?
Japanese people were like,
no, we get it.
We'll perfect it.
Yeah.
We'll make our own league.
Finnish people were like,
well, we all just run around.
That's fine.
You don't have to run.
You can decide I'm not going to run.
Why is everyone diving?
I don't know.
You'd have to dive into these rules.
But the...
This is insane.
There's a guy just throwing the ball up in the air,
and then a batter runs over and hits it.
Oh, yeah.
And, I mean, there – well, the idea of it is if one bad pitch equals a walk.
But the idea that you can hit it and then go, ah, that wasn't a good hit.
I'm going to – you don't have to run.
You hit the ball.
They start playing it, and then you go, nah, I'm good.
I'm going to wait and see if I can do another one.
You allowed all three strikes.
That's a whole other thing we got to look at.
Finnish baseball.
I had never heard of that.
That's good.
The male athlete of the decade.
They're all wearing clam diggers.
Did you notice that?
What are clam diggers?
Sounds like a
racist word to be honest.
It sounds like you're like,
Graham, I don't think we can say that.
It's a short
that goes flood pants.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
I just went with you.
Whatever would make this stop, I was trying to do it.
I'm trying to let the audience know, listeners, what they were wearing.
I'm sorry about that.
Male athlete of the decade, do you know, Aaron?
If you weren't going to look this sport up because I said the first base was next to the pitching mound,
I don't think you're going to go, oh got to see who these clam digger pants are now.
I don't think that's the thing that's going to get you to look them up.
They're like capris, by the way.
Yeah.
Capris.
Now they're definitely not going to look up.
They're like, I get it, basically.
Every once in a while, I'll say something and be like,
oh, yeah, I am from a different country.
Yeah.
It's like weird little things like that.
Yeah, yeah.
You said athlete of the decade
yeah
2000
of the 2010s
Michael Phelps
it's gotta be LeBron
it's LeBron
you've been Tiger Woods
for the last four decades
well he's been dominant
for a while
Tiger Woods
that's one thing
I do remember
Tiger Woods
was not dominant
over the past decade
2010s
he won the Masters
he won 2008
he won the Masters which he won 2008 he won the masters uh which won masters but
it's an unreal masters that he won but it doesn't i think he had one so good it gets counted in the
next decade but i think one year he got player of the year too in the 2010s no one really kind of
everybody kind of ignores that but but he was, you know.
Female athlete of the decade, Serena Williams.
Yeah, got to be.
The Cubs broke over a 100-year streak and won the World Series in 2016.
That was awesome.
I was living in L.A., and I went to go.
I specifically asked my Chicago friend.
I was like, can I hang out with you tonight?
Steve Bartman?
Yes. That's where he's underground he's living under i don't uh i don't think they deserve it for what they did to steve bartman yeah that was nuts i agree see that 30 for
30 he like lives in alaska yeah so that's what i mean so i don't like you can't tell me like well
the city deserves it but y'all ruined a guy's life yeah well the whole city didn't a couple
no no no chicago tribune they represent the whole city didn't. A couple. No, no, no.
Chicago Tribune,
they represent the whole city.
Go talk to any of these people from Chicago.
I was in Chicago when Bartman happened.
That's where I was working when I started comedy.
They ruined that guy's life.
They put his address in the newspaper.
They did?
Yeah.
That's nuts.
Where he works.
And everybody thought that's okay.
And everybody said
good that's what the chicago and i was and i remember just going like what are you and
wilbon on pti which i love kornheiser i love pti but wilbon would i mean for 10 years would just
still bring a bartman with like hate in his voice and then finally like is like all right well like
you know yeah we were kind of mean to him.
They're like, you shouldn't have been that mean to him.
You're like, this guy lives, yeah, if he lives in a lot, you've ruined a person's life.
And 15 years later, you can kind of go, oh, yeah, I probably went too hard on him.
Well, his life's over now.
He lives a different life because of people like you.
Well, he's probably okay.
He just changed his name and he lives in a terrible place.
That's all men and no women. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm sure he's probably okay. He just changed his name and he lives in a terrible place.
That's all men and no women.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm sure he's fine. It's fine.
He never got money off of it, never got anything.
Yeah.
That's very interesting.
Seventh largest gathering in human history.
Yeah, the Cubs victory parade.
Five million people were out there on the streets.
It was insane.
The seventh largest gathering in human history.
I had no idea. It was a big, largest gathering oh my human history idea it was
a big big thing wow looks like it's out in the country the only well this is just one stage of
i mean there's stuff going on i would say city if imagine if five million that's five million people
that ruined steve bartman okay they i would think i honestly unless i would i would go to steve bartman and i would celebrate
the cubs winning if steve bartman told me it was okay if he goes i made me really happy and i'll
say then i'll then i'm happy that they won only reason i for some reason just maybe because i
lived there i i only think uh and through his eyes because they they they it was they did to
him was so wrong they sent him a ring they did all this and they try to do all this stuff
and it's like come on man yeah if you don't know worthy of such an honor oh this is what he said
here's his statement although i do not consider myself worthy of such an honor i am deeply moved
and sincerely grateful to receive an official Chicago Cubs
2016 World Series championship ring.
They gave him a ring.
I am fully aware of the historical significance and appreciate the symbolism
the ring represents on multiple levels.
My family and I will cherish for generations.
Most meaningful, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
I am relieved and hopeful that the saga of the 2003 foul ball incident
surrounding my family and me is finally over.
13 years.
So 13 years he had to live with just...
His family's just uprooted.
Uprooted.
Yeah.
13 years and people loved it.
It's not like everyone is like, hey guys, let's calm down.
The main TV shows agreed that all of it was fine.
That's the insanity.
That's what makes me so mad.
And that's why I don't think they ever even deserved it.
That's why I like it.
Yeah.
That's why, I mean, I could care less that they win because of that.
Yeah.
Because that's disgusting that they would ever do that in a million years.
I love that Bartman's moved on more than you have
yeah yeah i will cherish this come on guys let's just calm down we're like you're like if bartman
says it's okay then i'll say it's okay well here's here's a quote where he says it's okay
it's disgusting i'll never live it down bartman you don't know what you're talking about buddy
what was the headline at the top it was something like bartman asked for uh i don't know what you're talking about, buddy. What was the headline at the top?
It was something like, Bartman asked for, I don't know, something.
Oh, he asked for forgiveness?
Yeah, or something.
I don't like that he's having to ask for forgiveness. No, he didn't ask for forgiveness.
For the people of Chicago.
He asked for, oh, privacy.
Yeah.
I request the media please restrict my privacy to privacy of my family.
I will not participate in interviews at this time
I meant the actual headline but
makes a moving statement about
forgiveness I remember a meme going
around after they won that was like we forgive
you now and you want to be like
how about he forgives you
it's that attitude
is like just disgusting
I don't get into it with Chicago people
I have theories about Chicago them sports I'm a Vandy fan I always remember that is just disgusting. I don't get into it with Chicago people in here.
I have theories about Chicago, them sports.
I'm a Vandy fan.
I always remember that.
I go through everything.
But Chicago, for some reason,
they think they're one of the greatest,
they're the greatest sports cities in the world.
They didn't win a ring for 100 years with the cubs and for some reason they think
they deserved it every year the the white socks white socks has done the best the bears won once
one time that's right and they think they're the greatest organization ever well they won a few
times in the 1930s before they wore helmets there you go so but like they they have this like history
of all this stuff and you, your teams all are terrible.
Your baseball team's so bad that you're blaming just anybody
and everybody but the team.
You blamed a goat.
You blamed, you know, there's always some kind of thing.
Then you ruin a guy's life.
It can't be their fault.
You lost that game.
You were up.
You lost that game and lost the next game.
But it's not the team's fault.
It's that guy that loves the team more than any of the people around him.
So let's blame him.
No one wants to take up for what they do.
Jay Cutler was in Chicago.
It's his fault.
It's no one else's fault.
They brought in Jay Cutler.
He's the only one that could have been – that ruined everything.
Wasn't – I understand being mad at Jay Cutler,
being mad at your quarterback that you can think that's good.
But what point do you go, let's start looking at the team, the organization?
Is it – can it all be Jay Cutler's fault?
Can it all be this kind of thing?
Can everything always be someone else's fault?
And you keep not
winning but you keep blaming players and people in the crowd yeah i think the second goat you
publish somebody's home address in a paper yeah you probably overstepped a little bit yeah and
everybody goes good is this because of your friends with jay cut Cutler now? He's my best friend.
Some of it.
Jay Cutler always defended for that because of Vandy.
He did more for us than he beat Tennessee the first time.
But I would have stuff with that Vandy where I was always looking at when Vandy was going through stuff and everybody got mad at Derek Mason
and I thought, there's a point you got to go, guys, we can't be blaming.
These coaches, they can maybe not be – it's not the coach that's working out.
Not saying that the coach is the problem.
There's a point that you got to go, something's not going good upstairs.
Like, they're not doing what they're supposed to be doing.
Because you just keep hiring the same person.
They go, well, he doesn't work either.
So what's the problem?
You're like, it can't be.
Titans had a little bit of that where I thought, you're like, you want a new coach?
And then you start chasing down this thing where you go, we need a new coach.
And you go, I think it's got to be something higher.
Because if you've got a good organization, then you tend to win.
I mean, you look at Tampa.
Like, you know, Tampa Bay, Tampa, the Rays, they've won.
You know, they had these organizations that were like, these things are kind of good.
Cleveland Browns, another one. Like, what did they aim the caps yours was so bad that you get this guy
that couldn't win there went to miami one and came back and at least won one more but
you you know there's a point where you go like i mean y'all dude y'all had it and y'all these
organizations the cleveland teams i want to win more than i don't know it's the owner's fault
there's not a lot of money in a town that's built on steel i don't blame i don't blame that's what
cleveland i i want to win more than chicago but chicago is like get it i mean come on man
like y'all just every like can you believe we're not winning again? Yeah. You've never won. Yeah. I believe you will never win.
That's how much,
that's how confident I am.
I was shocked you won one in 100 years.
I love how they broke up the 98 Bulls in 99
because they're like,
we're going to rebuild.
Yeah.
Look at that.
They broke that up.
Look at that,
how they do with the Bulls.
They were all going to come back.
And they go,
that's enough of that?
That's enough of that.
That's what they did.
I agree.
That's what I think they did with Tom Brady.
And I think you get, in the That's what I think they did with Tom Brady.
And I think you get in the Patriots, I think Belichick, Brady,
they're just like people don't want – they weirdly want change too much. So instead of like paying that guy, Brady should be able to like,
if he wants to die in a game, let him do it.
If you lose eight playoffs in a row, that's okay. Then we lose eight playoffs in a row, that's okay.
Then we lose eight playoffs in a row.
Yeah.
That guy gave us six Super Bowls, and we're tied as the most ever.
So, let's – and then now he's got more than every franchise.
Instead, y'all rushed him off, and then he went and won it.
I don't know.
Patriots won three Super Bowls.
There you go.
In the decade.
Three of them.
The Warriors and Cavs played in four straight NBA championships.
Yeah.
A big thing, LeBron played nine straight finals.
That's insane.
Yeah.
That's the thing.
Even though he didn't win them, that's crazy.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
Yes.
The 2018-2019 Toronto Raptors won their first NBA championship.
Woo!
I flew home to watch it at Comedy Bar in Toronto.
I flew back to Toronto.
I'm not from there.
It was just awesome.
Yeah.
It was so awesome.
That one was exciting.
It was the best.
But that's an organization that's really good.
Yes.
We have a problem because no one wants, free agents don't want to come to Canada because
they're like, oh, I got to get a passport.
Yeah.
But it was like one good player showed that like,
oh, y'all could win a bunch, actually.
Y'all have a great organization.
Great organization.
Unless that guy left.
Did that guy leave?
Kawhi Leonard?
Right away, yes.
Not Kawhi Leonard, though.
The GM or something?
No, he stayed.
He stayed.
Oh, he did?
Messiah Joyce, he resigned.
He got like a ton of-
He basically is like the king of the company now.
He can do it anywhere he wants.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Most dominant college athletic program, Vanderbilt.
Won two national
championships in baseball.
Went to five bowl games.
Had two back-to-back non-win seasons.
It was a big year for us.
Big decade. Won the SEC
basketball tournament in 2012.
Vanderbilt is the most winning.
Remember I called you about that?
I was at Bed Bath & Beyond.
Yeah, I was at –
I've never heard of that college.
I was in Canada.
I think I was in Canada.
I thought that was the weekend that Marin tweeted about you in Michigan.
2012, maybe.
No, when that game was on, you know what?
We lost that weekend.
So the weekend Marin tweeted that out.
That's right.
I had a bunch of texts.
I saw the game before my show, and then we lost to, I want to say, Wisconsin.
That's right.
You're right.
And then I saw these texts.
I was like, golly.
All these Twitter notifications.
I was like, is everybody just making fun of me because Vanderbilt lost or something?
And it was the Marin thing.
But the 2012 one.
That was the same year.
Oh, it was?
Yeah. We won the SEC, and then we got put out by Wisconsin. Yes. But the 2012 one. That was the same year. Oh, it was? Yeah.
We won the SEC, and then we got put out by Wisconsin.
Yes.
In the tournament.
So that was – okay, yeah, yeah.
And then it was.
But that was the year we won the SEC championship.
I was like, this is not good.
Like, you know, but –
Because he was ready for the coach to leave.
Yeah.
And he knew that would keep him there.
Well, it was – you know, you do think there's times for changes and stuff. Yeah. And he knew that would keep him there. Well, it was, you know, you do think there's times for changes and stuff.
Yeah.
Now, is Vandy NCAA?

comedy in 2007 and i got that in 2018 i said i'm never going to go on vacation until an american
late night and then the way they film it is they film a bunch of comedians they have a full audience
and they just have six comedians and then they edit the comedians out and put them into shows
throughout the next couple months you never know when you're going to be on and so i waited a couple weeks and they weren't telling me when
i was going to be on so i just booked a vacation by myself to i went to paris yep and um and alone
yeah paris and berlin i didn't have a girlfriend and uh i just want to go on vacation and like
just wanted like not you know and and uh so I went there and, and I,
as soon as I landed,

Why would I do it?
And then also the thing I remembered, I bet I'm going to one day understand this.
Yeah.
Just because you're like, this is how it's going.
Same thing with Twitter, everything.
TikTok, it's the same way.
TikTok, I don't do.
I do not learn.
Every time one comes along, I'm like, nah.

handle as Graham K Comedy because I want them to know I'm a comedian.
He's like, you should do Graham K.

But how are they going to know I'm a comedian, idiot?
