Oh, what's up you little rabbit rodeo bears?
Huh?

Now rabies, now rabies, now that's an STD right there.
That's one of those unsung non-heroes.
You know?
Rabie, everybody wants to preach on, you know, these more popular STD syphilis and uh, you
know, jock itch, I guess.
I mean that J.I., boy, you get a, you get a strong case of that J.I., son?
That's, I mean, I had, you know, growing up in Louisiana, you get that jock itch, that's
a kind of, you catch a strong strand, boy, your hands won't leave your nuts for, you
know, probably half of a moon cycle.
I mean, you, you catch that strong J.I., boy, you don't even, dude, you'll scratch your
wiener right off like a damn lottery ticket.
You catch that, I mean, this, they have some strands of, of jock itch done in Louisiana,
that old, that should be on the Discovery Channel, you know, so you know that.
And if you don't know it, then well, now you know that.
Kevin Hart was hospitalized after his car careened off an embankment.
The driver of the car was found pinned in his seat under the crushed roof, and so was
the female passenger.
And we know somebody that's been involved in embankments better than anybody.
I mean, we're talking about the Christopher Columbus of embankments, and that's our man
Billy Conforto, R.I.P.
And right now we got a special moment, actually, I'm going to call his brother Chucky and get
him on the line right here.
And this is Chucky.
What up, Chuck?
What's up, Theo?
I'm doing good, man.
How are you?
I'm good.
I'm good.
How are you?
I'm doing okay, man.
I was just over in Biloxi at the casino over there doing a show this past weekend.
So, you know, I had a, I was at my brother's house Saturday.
We had a live fantasy football draft, and one of the guys there was like, you know, it
was just, you know, it was Saturday or Sunday, and one of the guys there was like, you know,
yesterday, actually, he come back and he was like, man, I want to check out this new Theo.
Y'all know him.
I was like, yeah, I know Theo.
So I've been talking to him.
Oh, that's hilarious.
He told me he wanted to catch a show.
I didn't know anything about it.
Well, next time when I come over to Louisiana, I'll get you over to one.
Yeah, like, come check it out.
Yeah, it'd be great, man.
Sure.
Dude, there's so many fans that are, that are fans of Billy, bro.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So many people love him, man.
You know, and I just wanted to know, like, a little bit more about him because, you know,
I met him, we used to, we was bus boys together and, uh, and he was probably the wildest dude
I ever met in my life, man.
You know, I was, uh, I was talking to my brother, my youngest brother, my mom, she had seven
kids in eight years, which, you know, a lot of people have a lot of kids, but Jesus, that's
like Drew Brees type numbers, bro.
When you, she put it up there, nobody's about to catch it.
Damn boy, right, when you have an eight year old and you're in the hospital having your
seventh kid, that's a lot of kids from the same mom and dad, same mom and dad.
So it wasn't like, you know, she had a bump, we have a bunch of baby daddies or whatever,
how do you say it?
Yeah.
I was telling, you know, so I was at my youngest brother's house, uh, when I was texting you,
I think yesterday, man, my days was kind of confused.
We was like up to like three o'clock in the morning as I was playing cornhole and my days
are a little mixed up here, but anyway, we was talking, he was like, he just was like,
man, Billy, he goes, man, mom, remember, you know, mom always sending us to the store and
running back and forth and Billy came over one day and he's like, I got your bike.
And he was like, man, he goes, mom, make me go to store time and run errands, I got your
bike.
And he's like, how did you buy it?
I didn't buy it, but I got you one.
That was Billy.
You know what I'm saying?
That was Billy.
He was wild, man.
Yeah.
He was one of a kind.
I mean, I don't, yeah, he and I were bus, but I guess he was a waiter at this restaurant.
And then next thing I know, dude, he was always, he had us always on like all kind of weed
adventures.
He was doing, he was running weed.
He was always getting his car fixed.
Um, he, he, he would give you all that a little bit together with, you know, with, uh, with
the weed and stuff.
I see.
I'm a fan because of that.
I got it.
I got it.
I got it.
I got it.
I actually got a card from the governor, which worked out great for me, but dude, I remember
we was working at the restaurants and then, yeah, dude, I remember I used to drive him
across the lake to get weed and we would come back with so much weed, bro.
Well, the person he was coming to see you talking to.
Oh, there we go, man.
Well, look, nice to, nice to talk to you again, man, dude, and y'all had the craziest
fucking family.
People was boxing.
People was, uh, I mean, people was at people were on pills.
Everything was going on.
Yeah.
I mean, the drugs did run, uh, they tore our family apart.
You know, it was Billy, uh, and then our three cousins, Chuck and Jimmy, you know, boys could
box.
I mean, they were good.
They were going somewhere, but that monkey got on them.
They couldn't get it off.
It was tough.
I'm, you know, man, I'm, it's, what do you do, you know, they don't want to be that
way.
Let's talk to Billy about it all the time.
Like Billy was getting these, uh, he was getting these moves where, you know, he wouldn't
see him for a while and we all knew what he was doing, but then he would show up and
he would be Billy again.
He'd be like, come on, we're going to work out and he really was always the same way.
He'd have to get the camera out.
He always had this Polaroid camera, so you get the Polaroid out and he would take a
picture and he was like, I'm holding on to the pictures and we're going to tell, you
know, and so we're going to check them in.
Yeah.
Set goals.
Take the pictures.
Right.
So then we would go work out hard and boy, he wouldn't let you, uh, you couldn't skip.
You couldn't cut a rep shot.
He was on you.
That's how Billy was.
And even like I heard one of your cast about the steroids and he said that I had a flashback.
I forgot Billy used to be on it that I remember like he was, he was doing, I think like Winstraw
something crazy.
And he was like, and I kind of was like, man, I kind of want to do that too.
I'm playing football.
And I'm like, man, I want to try that too.
So he's like, all right, this is going to be the routine.
This is how we're going to eat.
He would just write it all out.
Billy was just crazy.
He was like a mad scientist and he was like, so he would tell you, we're going to take
it a half hour before we work out.
And when you said that, I remember the stinking one time being in the car with him, he's like,
it's a half hour before the gym, pull over, I'm like, wait, let's wait, let's go to
an apartment or something.
The apartment is around the corner from the gym.
No, we got to stop right now and do it.
And we actually were shooting, it's terror on the side of the road.
I said that, I'm like, holy shit, I don't know if you just was saying that, like just
telling the story.
I'm like, that actually happened.
Not that happened, man.
We did it over off of the interstate over about between Sladell and the exit by the
movie theater, bro.
We would duck off over there and fucking pipe them down, boy.
And I hate to cut that call short right there, but you can listen to the entire call on our
second YouTube channel, Theo Von Clips.
So you can check that channel out and it's got a lot of unique stuff on it.
And it will have the entire conversation with Chuck, Billy's brother.
Wow, just fascinating, man.
And that, yeah, and I talked to him for nearly an hour, so you guys can enjoy that there.
But yeah, being able to chat with the just, I mean, that real, I mean, just that human
fiasco that Billy Conforto was getting to talk to his brother, man, pretty sweet.
Let's get into this episode.
And
Somewhere else, but when I find it, I'll patch up where it's been
Now I'm just on the breeze and I feel I'm falling like these leaves. I must be
cornerstone, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind. I found I can feel it in my bones
But it's gonna take a little time
For me to set that parking brake and let myself go
So I'll shine that light on me
I'll slip and tell you my story
Shine on me
I will find a song and sing it just for you
And as you know it is Bishop Gunn shine taking a sin right there bringing us into the world
I wonder if when you're born like you could hear
I wish they had a little bit of that womb music
You know I wonder if maybe when you're born they should play certain music
And it that you know it might help you come into the world a little bit better or different
You know it would be like it you know like
You know like that song shine you know it might be you know just a real natural kind of Christian birth right there
You could have some rap music if you want if that baby was just kind of you don't even know if you're gonna you know
If you're that excited about the baby you know or if you kind of just hooked up with a man and you don't even know that man
Maybe they have that song pull over that has too fast pull over that has too fast and they could play that in the delivery room
So at least the baby when he comes into the world he kind of knows how he got out there you know
Or you know he might have it immediately his back story might be embedded into his tissue by the music
Because music hides in our bodies boy
Isn't that fascinating music hides in our bodies
Music hides in our bodies I mean I'm you if you you know if you fucking carved me open with a
With a carve opener or whatever you um I
Probably have a little bit of top 40 in me
You definitely gonna find some goo goo dolls down there by my ass you feel me you're gonna hear you know
Because music
One time a guy you know hit punch me really hard right in a jaw and immediately I started hearing that song
In the end the only thing that matters
You know that Lincoln Park that dude just punches
In the end and that song so you know that was hidden in my jaw or something this dude fucking cracked me and next thing you know
I'm linking parking boy
And that dude parallel parked my ass onto the ground and my brain just you know I got Lincoln parked up because music hides in you
Somebody might hit you with a damn you know if somebody
You know might hit you with a damn
Like a beater stick like a stick used for
For beating others
They hit you with that bitch in the back and next thing you know you start I keep a clothes watch on this heart of mine
They'll beat the fucking Johnny Cash right out of you
You that's the thing the music could really hide in our bodies
So if when a baby was born
They put a little bit of music on that maybe really
You put that you know some
Some just some music like a
One of them Jamaican guys like kind of a weed you know um
Who am I thinking of Bobby Marley
Bobby Marley
You know no
No cry
They get that in you and it really affect your system positively. I think over time
Shout out to everybody and
Support everybody over there dealing with the hurricane
And it's that time of year, you know mother nature has got a recipe book out
Because because you got the summer is kind of settling down
You got the rain the rain is coming in
Winter
And mother nature's just kind of flipping through the pages. Okay
What we got okay? We got a scattered storm over there
You know we got to make an entree out here in the on the coast
We're gonna mix up a batch of Dorian
Send that bitch up to feed a couple of
A couple hundred thousand with some water
Water
That's what you know, it's just that time of year when mother nature really has her recipe book out and can
You know when she's brewing up things she's making a batch of something nasty
It's that time of year winners coming
That's the crit you can't
Winner
That thing
Do my brother I remember at all when we were young when we were children we used to wait for the bus
And do getting out there in a bus in a winter time
You know it'd be like two days a year it would freeze in Louisiana
And people were crazy when it would freeze
People just duct tape a blanket around their kid and fucking send them to school just
You see you see people walking around school just look like tall just stacks of blanket
You have to open up the top and see who it was. Oh, who is this? Oh, that's a little Randall right there
You know, oh look you you have to unfold the blanket at the top like oh, that's Bridget
And Bridget all fucking duct tape kids looking all kidnapped kind of but warm
And you would just get so you know you get out there by the bus stop and breathe in the air
And just make them ghosts, you know, you could see your air you could see your breath living
You know just forming outside of you beautiful
And we just be oh
And we would do I remember if my hands you know my brother my brother one time sometime would have gas you know body gas
You know
You know what I'm talking about body gas man farts
And he would give you a set of air mittens dude if your hands was real cold he'd have
He'd say hey put them put them over by my butt and he'd hit you with them warm
He'd hit you with that a dose of that warm body air and give you those just so his hand mittens bro
Just lace you out with a set of air mittens right there
Keep your hands warm for about 15 18 second
And that's teamwork too man
It really is teamwork
You know because it's that's the thing about being in a winter place it brings people together
You get that togetherness you have you got to snuggle
You know the plants are dying so you got to take care of each other, you know people's lives become more pertinent
When you got the winter going on
You got to be careful you can't step certain places because you're not going to get stuck in there
You got to be careful you can't step certain places because you'll slip you'll die
Because of the ice so you have to be real careful
And I think that things seem a little more precious in the winter time human life does
Because it's at a little bit more of a rarity
It's not as abundant as it is
But yeah everybody who's bracing for Dorian and dealing with it good luck to you
Stay strong out there dude and I said get out there and be a hero
Get out there and be a damn hero
We had a boy in our town what his dude little cheeko they called him
And he was black I guess he was he was like a young black gentleman
Or he might have been just kind of dark Mexican
You know kind of like
You know like you know dark Mexican
And he would get out there and he if a storm was coming he'd get out there with a sword bruh
This dude he was fearless
He'd be out there battling the wind because you know in Louisiana they get them gusts
And a gust will hit you at 40 miles an hour and fucking tickle your ass real hard
Like a pervy uncle bruh a strong wind gust will fucking just
Make you get you get out all your tenderness
And um and he would little cheeko be out there with a fucking sword bruh
And he was real real he was real light
His bones probably if you were holding all of his bones in your hands
You if you weren't you might not even know if you what you might not even know you were holding them
That's how light he was he was just you know he didn't have a lot of calcium in him
And his daddy was real light
His dad I remember one time fell off the roof
And just kind of went side to side and then just kind of landed on the stomach real softly
So this is just the family not real
They had low calcium
And that's that's you know it's a I don't know if it's a birth defect or what it is but it's God
There's God doing what he likes
But little cheeko bruh this dude also the craziest thing about him he always he would look for
Easter eggs year round
So he was that kind of dude he be look you you know you
You be outside he be always looking for Easter eggs
And I think he didn't really get the whole concept of Easter egg hunt
And I think he didn't really get the whole concept of Easter egg hunt he thought it was
You know I don't know I guess one of them he went to the first one he ever went to and he just thought
That life had changed and now you could always look for him
But I remember he'd come over for dinner sometime and he'd fucking spend half that half the meal looking for eggs
But around the house and shit
Like damn little cheeko boy
Get your little dark Latino ass back here dude we trying to fucking finish off these potatoes
Boy we ain't getting any cookies little buddy
But he really loved Easter eggs man he would always
And then he got depressed really I remember a little bit as we got older because he didn't find you know it was so rare that you found eggs and so he
You know when you're constantly looking for something and you don't get it sometime it can really lead to some depression but but that's life
What else is going on I've been in training in Atlanta for a week training
training
We did training for movie training
And working with it was like working with
You had assault rifles AR-15s and you had Navy SEAL trainers training people how to interact with the weaponry how to use the weaponry
How to maneuver and move as a group
Really next level type of stuff I think
Just handling that piece because you I want to get out there and fucking Clint Eastwood
You know I hold an AR-15 to the side and just
And but it's very organized and very and we got to shoot blanks
We got to shoot blanks
Which was film blanks and so they make a louder flash than regular bullets do
And they make a louder sound
But they don't have any projectile
So that was kind of interesting to see
And we learned also though that that the the blanks even if you had like a water bottle
The man showed us and you shot it from about six feet away
It would obliterate it
So even the blanks the air blast that comes out of the weaponry is extremely severe
So you have to be cognizant of that
You can't just be you know shooting blanks at people because people will bleed to death
But what else did we do?
You know it was just like you get there and there's the script there's the table read and everybody's
You know it was just a lot it was a lot in one week and just kind of seeing what's going on with it and
And getting to meet Christopher Pratt. We'd never met very nice man the director everybody there beautiful people
That's uh
But I was there for a week and then I went to
Biloxi
And a call actually came in from Biloxi and I'll hit that one right here
Here we go
Yo Theo, what's up? This is John McCree from Spanish for Alabama
What's up John and Spanish Fort and I got a step sister that lives over there in Spanish Fort over there
And they're doing well unless she gots two children one of them's a ginger real tall tall Ganger onward
Just calling to let you know man. You did the damn thing in Biloxi last night
My wife and I are still laughing and talking about the show man
We had a fucking blast
Everything you said was fucking hilarious and on point at all time
The show was great
The opening act
Was fucking amazing everything was perfect man the show went off
Except for the knucklehead lady sitting behind me
But you called her out on that bullshit
With her loud ass
Gang gang
There you go thanks for calling man
Yeah that was fun in Biloxi
That lady I did call her out dude
That was good too she said
Oh you should have a Mexican kid I remember she yelled
And I was like well if I want to have a loud kid
I'll come talk to you
That's what I said
So we really put her in the silence booth didn't we
Yeah man Biloxi is crazy down there on the Gulf Coast
Dude they got everything
They got fish swimming through the air down there
They got trout they got trout
They got carp
You know they got carpenters you'll see carpenters
But it's just four fish fucking doing some drywall
I mean they got real fish everywhere
It's real just fishediculous down there
But thank you guys for coming out it was a lot of fun
Man it was fun so many people came
You know and just to be down there on the Gulf Coast
And you can't even get any cocaine down there because it's wet
Everything's wet down there you find an oyster in a damn cocaine
You'll do half a line and fucking next thing you know you got a pearl
You know you just you got a you know you got a pearl that you found
So it's it's a different place man
But it was yeah it was a joy bro
It was a real real joy over there
And people came out what else happened man
I was going to tell you guys about something that happened
Something that happened
Something that
That I was thinking about oh Louisiana won the Little League World Series
That's what I was thinking about I want to say congratulations to them boys
Southwest baby that team
And they took it they beat Curacao they beat Hawaii
And what I'm saying is they beat everybody son
A bunch of little freaking little gator tails from over there in Louisiana man from River Ridge
From over there outside of New Orleans they really got it done so congratulations to them little boys
And dude I remember bro being in uh Little League
I was so fucking bad at baseball
Dude I was bad
I was bad at baseball
Dude they put me in left field and then at one point they put me in double left field bro
I wasn't even on the field I was like you know if you go to left field
There's a line right there where it's out of bounds and they put me over there one time
So at that point you're on when you're like an assistant coach really
And I remember dude I remember one time they put me so far out there I was bought these woods
I was about probably about 11 12 feet deep into some woods
And I could barely even hear the game
So that's you know and I remember they had a couple mushrooms out there
And I remember eating a couple of those bitches boy
And look
You playing baseball and you have a couple mushrooms bruh
The whole world becomes the outfield
Dude I don't know what game I was playing
I was playing connect four inside of my brain bruh
I was trying to rearrange my toes I was trying to put them in a more
I was looking at my feet I remember thinking if I could put my toes in a more effective order
And that was just
So you got to be careful sometimes with those games you know these kids some of the kids they didn't
And my favorite thing was getting the snow cone at the end after the game
You know you're a shitty baseball player when your favorite part of the sport is getting that snack after
That's that you know that's when I remember the coach sometimes he was a hey Theo go sit in my truck
Make sure it's cooling off that's what he would say
Because he'd keep the AC running in there
And I'd sit in there for 20 minutes while the other kids were practicing and just fuck I must have been horrible
God I must have been horrible at this shit
Damn
So bear grills y'all know him
And the funny thing is his name bear grills, but never once have I seen him eating any
Kodiak boy brown black grizzly polar bear
I haven't seen him grill up one slice of bear
Bro you can't have a name and not do it okay
What if your name was wizard daddy and you don't do any spells bruh
Then that's really not really neat is it then you're not living up to your name
What if your name is blind Simon
But when people say Simon you don't even react and you can see really well
Then you're not who you say you are bear grills first of all grill up a little bit of bear
I'd like to see you carve up a fucking cut a cub baby
Okay, and gum that shit down
That you don't seen how strong you would be
So bear grills don't even grill bear
But he got stung by a bee and had to be rushed out by paramedics
And I'll say this man if you don't think that bees are the doberman pinchers of the devil
Bees are Satan's little German shepherds
Think about a bee
Think about a bee man
They come around bruh and they fuck you up
Think about that
Imagine if somebody ran over by you you're hanging out at the park you having a little cut of ham or something
You know you may be having a couple ganger snaps or whatever doing something natural
You having a lemonade bruh, but you cut it down with water a little because it's too sugar
And somebody runs up bruh a little dude bruh runs up pulls out a fucking knife fucking pokes you like that
And then he dies
That's a bee that's a bee man. That's what a bee do
Bees do that kind of shit bruh a bee would kill you if it could the problem is God don't give a bee a strong enough sword
Just to fucking hurt you
But bear if you can't handle a bee sting
Dude, I remember getting a bee sting
I remember getting a bee sting
Just to fucking hurt you but bear if you can't handle a bee sting
Dude I remember getting stung by a bee bruh in both of my fucking eyelids boy at the park one time during summer camp
And I still had to go to camp
My mom didn't give a damn you can't see do well
You know God wants you to relax on the inside a little bit and calm down
You know you just darkened out but you still have to go to summer camp
I don't give a damn. I want to put some calamine lotion on my fucking forehead
She even put it on my eyes. I remember made me go maybe drink a whole bunch of water
That shit was horrible boy, but different times man
But bear grills boy you can't handle a bee sting
That's crazy

You know I was in a
I was actually I was working out this morning and I got a trainer got a trainer
You know I just because I struggle I know sometimes with the motivation so if I can help cure that part then I can
Be more effective and actually you know breaking breaking a sweat and doing that kind of stuff
It's it's a good use of my time because it makes it takes me out of my brain
And this morning I was thinking man I was having to do these like sled pushes and stuff and and I was like man
Sometimes when I kept thinking like oh this is hard. It was hard
But then at one point I was like why don't I quit thinking with my brain and just think with my body
You know why don't I just let my body take control of the moment instead of sitting there thinking this is hard
Why don't I just use my legs and see how hard it really is
And once I did that I started feeling I was like oh this isn't as hard as I thought it was
And it made me think of a lot of times like when I you know I used to lay in bed a lot and just start
My brain would just run and start thinking negative right when I wake up
My brain just man you got this this thing is dealing hanging over your head and this and you know
Maybe here's a lie that you told and you haven't really straightened it out yet and that comes back
The land on my on my shoulder like a bird every morning and and then this problem you know you got this
You know
You know you got this business thing you got to take care of and you need to respond all these little birds land on my
Shoulders right when I wake up and it's all and it's negative chirping
But that's just if I lay there and listen to my brain
But if I get moving and get my feet going and get into my body then I find oh wow
I'm just I'm getting things done my brain is not able to just talk to me because I'm actually taking control and I'm doing something
And then I was thinking man maybe
One of the reasons why a lot of young men
And my generation and the generation after me are struggling with mental health
Or just you know more caught up in our feelings and our emotions and shit is because
We don't use our bodies as much as we used to
Like our fathers are you know and our grandfathers they had to a lot of them worked more labor jobs
You know a lot of them there wasn't everything wasn't automated they had to move more they had to do more things
So they were more in their body they were taking action physical action
Whereas now it's like a lot of us aren't a lot of those jobs don't exist things are more automated
So we get more in our brain
You know and I think our brains just aren't used to being able to just be so sedentary
And when the brain gets sedentary you know and just sits around and it's not
You know it's when it's when your body's moving your brain has to kind of like control just function of what's going on
But when or when my body's moving when my body's still my brain just starts to just swirl
You know just starts to just pontificate and
Consider and worry
But if I keep my body moving my brain's like okay, I got to pay attention to what's going on because I have to
Make sure the body's okay, you know I can't bump into things or run into a you know a saw or something or
You know get hit by you know something do you know catch some electricity or something
So
So what I'm saying is like I noticed that
When I was pushing on this sled at the gym when I when I was in my brain I was like fuck this is hard man down
If I could do this and how much longer do I have but when I quit that and just started moving my body I
Couldn't think about the worry. I just could you
Know I just got it done
And I think that's where we are as a generation and so there's a lot more young men who just
This is the first and second generations of us not using
Our bodies as much you know not as many people working labor jobs not as many people so you're having more of a sedentary
Lifestyle where your brain starts moving
And and I think that that's why we're having just because we're more caught in our brains
And we're having more mental health issues because we're using our brains all the time but
But we're not using them in conjunction with our body at the same time
So there's just a thought that I had it was something that really kind of resonated with me like wow like no wonder
You know
We don't we're not moving as much if we move less than yeah, we're gonna have more mental health problems because we're just stagnant
And so maybe think about you know kind of some of the stuff that
You know like wow if I get moving my brain doesn't have a chance to just sit there and spin
So
Let's take another call that came in here 985-664-9503 is the hotline
And if you hit that sucker be much obliged
Also, we got the new merch lineup you can check it out

Hey Theo, my name is Hannah
I was calling regards to a call that you got last week about a guy with sweaty hands
Oh, thank you Hannah. I appreciate that call
Yeah, and that fella was real dripped out up in the mitts, you know
He really he got those uh
He's got he's kind of got his gorillas in them in the mitts
You know, he's got them
You know, he's got these dampened out
Because a hand really I mean there's so much moisture in our bodies
It's really amazing that more of it just doesn't pass right through our hand
You know, you got water, blood, plasma
It's amazing it'll shake somebody's hand and they have a little bit of plasma on their hand sometimes
Let's hear more
And this is actually, yeah you've probably heard of it
It's a medical issue called hyperhydrosis
And I had it in my armpit which is so just not here at all
It could be something that's like
There's medicine or antibiotics
It sounds like his dad hasn't used it
Basically though, you can get Botox in your hands
I got Botox in my armpit
My insurance actually covered it
If you provide like proof
Now you have to go
So you can get that Botox in your hands for handshaking
I guess if he's slipping out
You get that hello tox because you shake somebody's hand
You say hello and then bitches dry it up if you got that
Because that's, I mean that just seems extensive
And how many injections you have to get to get a whole shake covered
Because you know, I guess you just really need to get the middle
But yeah, you want that dry grip I think if you're doing handshakes
That's the biggest concern is hitting somebody with that fucking wet hello right out the gate
Just hitting them with that damn
With that, you know, you put out this just that slick snake boy
That's fucking that pal Amanda
You know, you're making pals with somebody and then that thing's all slippery
That arm that hand
And that's something that's really probably
But that's called hyper hydrosis
Okay, so you're saying that he could get injections Botox in his hands
And you had it in your armpits
And that's kind of sexy a little bit
If you're making love to somebody you need to start real just
Just really just almost just kind of
Just really just getting all Niagara on your ribs kind of that's almost a little bit sexy
Let's hear more and there you go if you don't want to do good schoolwork just fucking tell him you got that drip
Get your little thing of vising and just
Put some on your hands show the teacher say look
These answers are bad but it's because
I'm fucking leaked out
You know daddy's got that
I got those
I got those little oasis is right here
Or what are they called mirages or something fake little rivers or something
Here's another call that came in for the drip emits for some advice for the beautiful young fella
And then him and his daddy got that genetic drip gang gang onward
Hey Theo this is Kevin from Los Angeles
What's up Kevin from Los Angeles thank you for calling man and
And I'm in Los Angeles right now brother so let's hear more
This is one of the calls really quickly to help out a guest I called you
He had an issue with some leaky mitts right
I had that problem for like 27 years dude
Damn
So you really one of the forefathers of those fucking
Of those those arm faucets onward
Just terrible you don't want to go to networking events don't want to shake anyone's hand
Well now the fist bump has really saved you guys then
Because a lot of people had issues with the fist bump when it came out saying it was violence
It was promoting violence it was a black power thing that you know just people felt it was egregious
But anyway enough of what I'm thinking onward thank you Kevin
Do anything you know even holding hands just suck so
Yeah, I could imagine that would but now if you're gonna do a little masturbation
Then that's gotta be helpful
Onward
What I did is I looked up there's a thing called I own touch derma
And I think the ion is like ions for electricity
It's this weird thing you put your hands in a little bit of water and I don't know what it does like electrocute something in your hand you know
And turns off the sweat glands or something like that
And you literally solved my problem within like you know two treatments
And now I do it like once every two weeks hands and feet and it's dry and it's life changing dude
So hopefully your guests can hear this and it can help them out because it definitely helped me out
I own to derma and hopefully that changes his life
I own to derma and yeah, we'll put this into together in a package and put this on the clips channel as well
You'll be able to see that if you got the air if you dripping out those paws if you got those porous paws and
Then this could be some solution while those are two great suggestions
Thank you guys both the hyper hydrosis and the ion to derma
And you put your hands in some electric water and that tightens your shit up dude
Because that's crazy you can't even play basketball you getting a ball all wet
You know you can't even I guess it's nice if you're fixing your hair and you wish you had a little bit of gel
But you don't because a lot of times I wish I had a little moisture on my hand to tighten up my wig and then bam
So I guess there's things that help and things that don't
But also dude I got to say this I got the worst haircut of my life in Biloxi, Mississippi
And maybe I shouldn't have got my hair cut at a casino. That's the truth
But damn do that shit just broke my heart man
This lady and I knew she shouldn't have been cutting hair dude. She has swear brush. She had a pair of damn school scissors in there
And I knew right when I sat down she goes. Oh, I'm really one of the best hair cutters and I said like this ain't gonna be real well
And I told her just a little and then she went wow
Like she was doing gardening, but I wouldn't let this lady cut dude. She couldn't if she was trying to cut her own wrist
I bet she couldn't this lady and I hate to get upset man
But there's nothing that made that makes it tougher for me than if somebody
Fucks my hair up on my haircuts already fucked up
So I'm not letting people cut my hair anymore
You know I'm not doing that shit man that lady
And I knew it at one point at one point I said please stop
And I sat there boy and I knew it
And all I could see was how horrible I was gonna look for the next five weeks just knowing that this
That this is how things had occurred
And that shit chewed me bruh
And she just the back is she made it all thin and shit and
I don't know man and I
And then here's the worst she didn't even tidy up around my neck
You know you get all that straggling shit on the back of your neck
Look like a newborn animal a little bit you get that
That fuzz and stuff in your ears
She didn't even tighten any of it up dude
But what do I that's what I do
Like I sometimes I just man
Why'd I get my hair cut at a casino man
Just pissing me off dude some of the choices I make
I should have known that shit man
Dude right and they were selling candy and shit and they got
Dude
60 feet away they got everybody's on a gig I wanted to hit in that air tank and people
Dude how many able able bodied people
Are on
These scooters and shit at a casino
I saw a whole school like a school of fish go by
Like 30 people all of them look fine physically
And they out here just just
In a V formation I said dang boy come on
Somebody with a bow and arrow start popping these bitches off
Bow and arrow start popping these bitches off
But yeah man that's where you see this kind of stuff dude people just get up and go
Dude the old days somebody had one leg bro you see them hop into their gate at the airport
You see them just
Dude you need some help yeah hey let me get on your back for a second
People helping each other out
Now everybody's in the wheelchair
You'll see fine it's just that's how they do it now it's just different
You know all you got this big family everybody's sharing a gas tank a tank of gas or something
Or air, oxygen at the casino on these scooters
Tell you man put these motherfuckers out in the left field
I'm feisty today
I'll be okay everybody's okay man
You know it's just we got to get back in our physical bodies we got to stay active because it keep our brain from running over time
Keeps our brain from running over time
What else man here's a question that came in
From patreon this from Dalton Wyndham
How has it been getting away from Los Angeles for a while do you think staying away for several weeks will push you to relocate
Like you've mentioned before gang gang
You know what's funny man I think
Even just haven't been in Atlanta for the past week
I start to get an idea of okay. This is what life would be like if I live somewhere else
You know there was some good things
You know Atlanta is
Atlanta is cool man. It's so spread out. It actually reminds me of Los Angeles a lot of a lot of places
The food services room the places I ate out was not good. You wait forever to eat
At a certain point I thought I'd just take up hunting
I said man, I might as well just damn hunt if this is how long it's gonna take to get a damn burger
But also it could be I'm coming from Los Angeles where you know you get used to thing being quicker and fastness
Things have more fastness in them out here
Oh
I thought of this too if you got the drippy mitts dude have my brother serve you a set of them fucking air mittens, baby
Have somebody you know
Throw a little a but a little burst on the little body gas on your hands boy dry them cats right up
But what else do I think
Has it been getting away from Los Angeles for a while
I definitely think that
The pace out here is not a pace. That's the same in the rest of America. It's just different
You know the rest of America feels a little bit more like everything is more at home and more laid back
And then you get into some city environments and it feels like you're just used to
Thing being quicker. So I think I need to it shows me that my level of patience is gotten
Accelerated so I need a
Lesson that I need to take a little bit of the PSI
Out of my ability to be patient
Let's take another call that came in right here nine eight five six six four nine five zero three
Yo, man
I'm working down here in San Diego is a machinist and a gunsmith. Oh nice, man that gunsmith dude. I'll tell you this so
You know this week we were working with these pistols these AR guns they are 15s and they're really fancified for the movies
They teach it they make all put on extra scopes and they make them real
You know cinematic
And and and one other thing I noticed was oh
So
What am I thinking about he said he's machinist he's gunsmith
Who's gunsmith do I know that
What am I thinking about he said he's machinist he's gunsmith
Do I know that? No, I don't know anybody named that
I'm sorry, man. I mean, oh here's one thing I realized about police officers police officers you know get a ton of bad press
I mean the press is basically
It will raise hell about anything just to get clicks. They don't really care anymore. It's not news
It's just how can we start fire today? How can we start hell today? How can we
Say anything it's basically like someone just yelling it's almost like schizophrenia has a bunch of large companies
A lot of these news stations. I can't even watch seeing it anymore. I refuse. I refuse. It's not even a fucking television. It's a
I just I don't know man. I just don't know
What's going on with that shit?
But I'll say this here
that
When I remember when I was um
When I was working on this on road rules show we went one time to
Georgia
Went to North Georgia and they had a
It was how to be a police officer went to police officer training
And one of the things you did you went into a
simulator
simulator
You know something that makes something that's not that
And he went in there and the simulator was you had
You were an officer and you had a sidearm and
You were in this room and that was the and the simulator was against the wall
There was a big screen and the screen would play different scenarios
And like you would be like an officer that caught got called to go to a an alley where people were something was happening
There's stuff going on at this alley
You know as a domestic disturbance or something and so on the screen it would look like an alley
It would look like behind a building and there's people out there and somebody's you know standing there with their girlfriends somebody's
You know
Leaning on the dumpster smoking a cigarette it looked like an alley
And in this simulator you could talk to the screen and it was all like the computers and stuff made it so it would talk back
They would communicate back so you could talk to somebody who was in the scene that you were watching
So you say hey, you know, what are you doing out here? And the guy would talk back to you and
And you would kind of go through these different kind of checkpoints that a police officer has to go through
Now sometimes during the simulation
They had different settings on the simulation where sometimes one of the people in the scene would pull out a weapon
And just start shooting at you
And when that happened inside of the room you were in
They had these fake they had these like guns in the wall
That would shoot these rubber pellets at you or shoot these plastic pellets at you
So if something happened on the screen on the simulator
It would then and somebody shot at you
It would happen in then real pellets would would shoot out of the wall out of the corners
Out of these kind of like paintball gun type of things and actually hit you
But sometimes the guy on the screen would just shoot you out of the corner
But sometimes the guy on the screen would just it would look like he was just he was reaching in his pocket to show you his identification
And it was just real interesting
Because I remember thinking man
I would engage in different scenarios like sometimes you're in a classroom
Sometimes you're there's you know, you're pulling people over at an a vehicle
And it really blew my mind how
One time a guy could be reaching just to get you his identification or to just scratch his leg
And another time a guy could reach to pull a weapon on you
And it blew my mind my inability to be able to calculate those in real time
Because they'd have the same scenario, you know, it would be like an officer responds
You know and use you know, there's five people in an alley
And it turns out all they were doing was gambling or they were looking for something
Somebody thrown something away in a dumpster now they're all planning on looking for it
And and the scenario could play out like a 30 different ways
And the computer would have it set up like that
But when you when you engage with them like you didn't really know every time you had no idea how it was going to play out
And so, you know, it was just and so sometimes you get shot and sometimes you it would be just nothing
It would just be oh, you know, there's a cat somebody's looking for their cat
And that's what you're trying to help with but you never knew
And and just the way it changed sometimes so quick
You know, you'd be in a like you had to respond to a classroom in one of the scenarios
They had his guy had his head on the desk and you're talking to a student in the front of the class
Who had been in a in an argument with another student or something
And then somebody the guy in the back just sits up one time and gets his book back to leave the room
But in another version of that same scenario the guy gets up and and pulls out a weapon
And just to be able to like know the difference or be able to like in the minute seconds that you're standing there
To watch on the screen and be able to know okay, what's going to happen right now
This shit was baffling man. It was so hard to be able to know
To be able to have reflexes that made sense or to be able to be it was impossible
Sometimes it was impossible you think a guy was a guy was just a full open in a newspaper
And next thing you know you pull and you shoot on him and another time a guy's it looks like he's open in a newspaper
He pulls a gun out and starts shooting at you but to know
It just blew my mind man. Anyway, when you when you said about guns made me think about that about that experience
I had a long time ago and I thought about this past week when I was
Handling the weaponry out there and handling a different violent, you know utensils in this and that onward
I had a falling out with my box and you know got let go which wasn't too bad
I felt pretty down at first because I'd just gotten arrested for DUI and I was stressed about how I was going to pay for that
And my wonderful girlfriend helped find me a new machinist and gunsmith job
And I was you know really looking out feeling good about it, you know what man I really messed up
I had a little incident at work and I got scared I had you know met something up
And I tried to hide it I lied about it
Oh man I'm sorry to hear that man. I've done that before
You know I was supposed to just be doing washing tools one time and I took this tool truck for a ride
And I tried to jump a ditch with it and fucking
Fuck man I fucked everything up Jesus Christ
Let's hear more
At first and you know I came clean right after but you know it doesn't matter they didn't want none of that
And I don't blame them I shouldn't have lied about it
And it just really sucks because you know now I don't know what I'm going to do
I embarrassed my girlfriend and helped me get the job
One of my buddies who you know I used as a reference and I embarrassed him and I just made a fool of myself and I felt really bad
And just today I crushed my hand man didn't feel too good I had to go get some stitches
Right after leaving the hospital I fucking reared in somebody on the hospital man
So my main question is I can't really seem to keep my head on straight like I don't think I just keep messing up
I don't know if anybody has something nice out there
Much appreciated gang gang
See you guys man I love you
Alright bye
I love you too bro
I love you too man I'm sorry you're struggling with some of these things
Isn't that such a bad it's such a tough feeling when you feel like you just everywhere you turn
You make mistakes or you mess things up or
You know and
I can really relate to that man I can really relate to thinking
Because then I start thinking I'm no good
I'm no good as a person that's where that when that kind of stuff happens in my life
I start thinking I'm no good as a person
And then I don't want to interact with other people anymore because I feel like oh man
Every time I interact with people I just end up kind of messing their lives up or doing something bad and
And the safest thing for me to do is just stay away from others and be and just keep to myself
But then when I do that the little dark arts really can bloom even stronger because I'm just alone with my thoughts
And let me say this man my brother helped me realize this recently that
What I do and who I am can be different things
If I make mistakes that doesn't mean that I'm a mistake
Okay you're a good person
You have made some choices that didn't work out the way you wanted them to
You probably feel the repercussions of those are really huge and you can't surmount them
But you can
You know and all these things aren't happening at once
You know I know it feels like they are but you can solve them one at a time
Now if you apologize to somebody you can't expect them maybe to immediately accept the apology and be okay
That's something we can't expect
But you can let them know hey this is the choice I made this is why I made it
I made a mistake
Let me know how I can if there's something I can do to remedy the situation I know you helped me get this job
Let me know what it is
I think if you're honest and sincere then you can repair those damages
I really believe that
Now you may not repair them immediately it may take a little bit of time for those to completely repair or get better
So just recognize that don't don't think if that doesn't they don't accept me immediately or they don't
That you're
That everything's horrible or something like that
That you're that everything's horrible or it's never going to happen that's not true
But the choices you make or things that happen or things you do or things you're a part of and who you are those are two different things man
You know this doesn't mean you're a bad person this doesn't mean you're not going to be successful this doesn't mean you're not capable
It doesn't mean you don't deserve to live in this world or to be a part of a loving relationship or to have somebody care about you
This doesn't that doesn't mean any of these things
You know it sounds like
You maybe could just use some help overall it seems like with the way that you are operating in the world
You know sometimes the way that we think the world is and the way that it really is are a little bit off
And for me I got in that's why I did Scott in the 12 step
And stuff like that recovery programs because those things really helped me
You know I always thought that everybody was I was
I don't know I thought that it was all about me like I don't know
Sometimes I still do I don't know I try to think of what I thought
I
Always thought that life was this weird competition kind of that everybody was keeping all these scores and nobody was
It wasn't really happening
People were just trying to survive and people were just and for the most part people were trying to do well
And they were trying to do well by one another
And when I learned to interact with the world at an easier softer way
Things got easier for me in every asset in every facet relationships employment
You know I learned how to
You know just the value of telling the truth
Sometimes I lie about shit man and I shouldn't even have still do sometimes
But not like I was before man
And I felt like the world didn't want me that it just like I was just here in it sometimes and now
I know I'm a part of it just like other people are and that we all make mistakes
And a lot of times people are really understanding when they when you're really being honest with them
You know somewhere inside of me a long time ago
I felt like if I was honest with people that they weren't going to love me I think
You know what I think is some of that just went back to maybe at a young age or
You know maybe I felt like I was really expressing need
And I didn't get the response that I wanted and so somewhere inside of me that part of me closed up and didn't
Really open up correctly again
But that's not true man you did there's a couple of things that have occurred
And you can you can remedy them for yourself
And you can change the way that you behave so that they don't happen again so you don't feel this way again
And that's what I did find when I got into 12-step and type of stuff is I found an easier softer way to live
Which I didn't think existed man God
You know I thought that the world like and I still feel like it sometimes I take my own willpower back so much
And it's like I just I'm trying to control everything and man I can't do that
I can't do that and thank God I can't
If the world revolved around me dude it would fall apart
You know I don't even have any milk at home so fuck
You know how I'm doing
But it's gonna be okay man I promise you
And if you're not feeling good take a nap or something and take some positive action
But don't sit around just thinking and for just feeling move your feet
Move your feet man and your brain will follow take action
And you can remedy these you can remedy these things millions of people have been through the same type of time you're having right now
And they are okay
And they are living lives right now that are comfortable and loving and
And there's nothing wrong with you as a person
You know there really isn't man
There's nothing wrong with you as a person
You there you are involved in some things right now where you haven't made some of the best choices that's okay
You know what that is?
That's human
And the beautiful thing is it sounds like there's a lot of people around you that also really can see
The good parts of you people are willing to help you out and recommend you for things and
You know so sometimes if we can't even see our own beauty we can't even see the beautiful things that are in us man
Because the way that we see the world is a little off it's not the right way
We in a kaleidoscope and really it's just a pipe where you can just see through it
But we out here kaleidoscope and man we got to be tuned a little
But keep your help keep your head up man and be good to yourself dude
And just realize that we're all just people and that we're trying our best
And it's okay man if you if some things happen it's okay
You know you're not a bad person
Okay you just have done a couple things that aren't working out for you at this moment
But take be easy on yourself
You know it's the same thing you guys always tell me
So I just learned this from watching y'all

If we make mistakes or we mess up
We can get things back on track and we can tighten up and we can affect people
We don't know the actions that you know
The friendships we have
The actions that you know the friendships we're gonna make
The effect that they're gonna have on people years later

And we're gonna go out the way that we came into the world baby
But a little bit of shine
RIP Billy man love you brother
I'll patch up where it's been
Now I'm just floating on the breeze
And I feel I'm falling like these leaves I must be
Cornerstone
Oh but when I reach that ground
I'll share this peace of mind I found I can feel it
In my bones
But it's gonna take a little time
For me to set that parking brake
And let myself rewind
Shine that light on me
I'll sit and tell you my stories
Shine on me
And I will find a song
I will sing it just for you
And bang bang gang baby
And I've been moving way too fast
On the runaway train with a heavy load of my past
And these girls that I've been robbed of
They want something that they're damn they're gone
I guess now they just weren't built to last
Yeah I'm gonna fly
To make sense of what I can
Of where I'm going
Billy see you baby
Shine that light on me

Shine on me

Chef
Busboy
Dope runner

Champion
Dog owner

Loyal human
Then Billy can for it to but I don't think you can
And you know what man it just shows we're not just one thing
You make some mistakes we do this you mess up at work you hit a car you do
We're not just one thing man that thing doesn't define who you are
You are many many things
And more often than not all the things that you are
When we put them together man that we're okay
You know we are a good person
You know just look at the big picture of who you are because I bet it's a nice image brother
You guys be good to yourselves man because you deserve it
