Starting point is 00:01:30 Wow. It's never too late to come over right there. And that is Stevie Starlight. And some people think like, well, who's Stevie Starlight? You know? And some people think, who's Stevie Starlight? It sounds like somebody that roller skates around and just puts dirty peppermints into the mouths of adolescents or middle-aged children. Who's Stevie Starlight? and the answer is I don't fucking know who it is because that's the way the world works now somebody sends me an email
Starting point is 00:02:09 they said hey I'm Stevie Starlight and this is my life's work this is the magnum opus of my existence this is this dirty naughty hit and that's Stevie Starlight right there and that is called Come Over. And that's the kind of song you hear if you're like, you know, if you broke into somebody's house and you're trying on their clothes.
Starting point is 00:02:41 You know, that's what I feel like, you know. It's never too late to come over. That's that Stevie Starlight. And Stevie Starlight sounds like the kind of dude you would never let babysit a kid. Obviously, yeah, he might, you know, have an ad on the internet to be a babysitter. Might also have ulterior motives. a babysitter might also have ulterior motives. And that's just my that's just my
Starting point is 00:03:06 I'm just basing this solely on the name Stevie Starlight. Or he could be the fucking awesomest airplane pilot you ever get on a plane with. Imagine you get on an airplane you get on the guy has a fucking no shirt on the pilot.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Zero shirts. You think he has a shirt on well apparently you're not you're not getting a good look at him because he does not he's got on chest hair he's got on a southwest he has a it says southwest tattooed across his chest pierced nipples both of them pierced. And each piercing has like a half of a heart hanging off of it. One half says B-E-F-R-I. The other half hanging off the other nipple says S-T-E-N-D-S. He has a best friend's heart hanging half and half off each, you know, slippery little, you know, little nerve-ending, little dirty little brown baby titty nipple.
Starting point is 00:04:16 And that's Stevie Starlight. Imagine you get on that airplane and there he is. You're like, where are we going, captain? And he just cranks it up. You know you're going. You're going to fucking heaven. That's where you're going, dude. That's the only place this jet goes. Newark to heaven. But you know what this is, guys?
Starting point is 00:04:48 This is that comeback music. This will make you stomp your foot, dude. This will make you fucking just put both your fingers into a baby's mouth and just take that little, whatever you gave them, some creamed peaches or whatever you just fed them. It'll make you take it right back out of their mouth and just eat it right in front of them. You can see right now you can feel somebody just... And the baby is just like looking like... The baby's like, what?
Starting point is 00:05:19 Yeah, baby, that's what happens in this universe. Welcome to the world. Because sometimes people will take the food right out of your mouth. And I'm just fired up today because I'm back, man. That's what I felt like when I saw this hit from Stevie Starlight. This Come Over.
Starting point is 00:05:35 That's what I just... This is like Rocky. It's like that Rocky music, but for like a guy who sometimes questions his sexuality. And that's what I felt. I mean, it's just like, man, that's that Stevie Star light. And I want to thank you guys for being here with me. Welcome to this past Thursday.
Starting point is 00:05:58 And this is that comeback. You know, last, on Monday, I just felt rattled, man. I just didn't feel feel i didn't feel good you know i just felt and i was thinking about how i felt and uh and i guess i just felt a lot of fear man i just felt i felt like the episode or just be i just i don't. I just didn't feel good. You know, I didn't feel that good. And I just didn't, I just felt disconnected. You know, I just felt disconnected. And I'd been doing everything that I kind of need to do to stay connected. Because for me, I have to follow, I have to try to follow a, you know, organized set of, you know, things each day to try and stay connected. And I'd been doing that and I was feeling not connected.
Starting point is 00:06:48 And that was just getting a little bit scary to me. But I want to thank some of you guys that reached out and just said, hey man, keep your head up. Everything's okay. And sometimes we just have to hear that. Sometimes we have to hear somebody say that to us. And so I appreciate it. That was some of you guys that, um, that did that. And I just was just afraid. I was thinking about it. I guess I was just afraid, you know, I had some fear that, you know, we've been getting more listeners to the, to the show and we have like, um, we have, you know, know some we have some exciting plans coming up for uh this year and for the coming months we're going to do a state of the podcast address on on um on
Starting point is 00:07:34 monday's upcoming episode we're just going to kind of you know we have some things that are you know going to happen that we want to start to um you know unravel out into the universe and i guess i was just feeling like a lot of pressure um you know and i was and i just i just kind of lost my you ever seen a baby deer sometimes if a baby deer gets born they come out of their mom first of all a baby deer walks out backwards into the world do know that? Some animals come out frontwards. Humans. You know? Figures, dude.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Idiot humans coming out frontwards. What an idiot. Because somebody can attack your head. Immediately. Say you're being born and there's a damn war going on. Or there's a fire. And you stick your head out first. What an idiot., what an idiot.
Starting point is 00:08:26 You're an idiot. And when I say you, I mean all of us because that's how we do it. And that should show us right there that humans, we're not, it's, you know, it's not, we're not really pro, we're not, we're kind of just dumb a little. We go head first into the world. I mean, it's brave. It's adventurous. It's that pioneer spirit.
Starting point is 00:08:52 But think about this. It's a place you've never been because you've never been anywhere because you're brand new into the universe as far as we know. And you're going to stick your head out there first? What a damn Muppet. What a greased up
Starting point is 00:09:16 damn snicker sniffing Muppet. It's crazy. And that's why Breach Birthers, I trust a breach birther more often and I wish that if we should all have to wear a little name tag
Starting point is 00:09:29 that says if we were breach or head first because while head first it's brave and everything also way idiot yeah
Starting point is 00:09:37 never been to the universe before I'm just gonna stick my head out first psh well that's nuts so breach birthers at least they're like, I'm going to put a toe into the universe and see how it feels.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Maybe I'll put two feet in the universe. And if a breech birther, if it's a fire, if it's a war, or if somebody lops their legs off, you still got the rest of your body. You can still get born and go live out in the world in a wheelchair or on a skateboard.
Starting point is 00:10:09 If you don't have any legs, sometimes when people don't have legs, you know, you can see them on the internet. It's a lot of, some men and some men in India, even they duct tape them to a skateboard and that's their body, is the skateboard. You know, they still have their chest and their genitalia and hips.
Starting point is 00:10:26 But, anyhow, you know they still have their chest and their genitalia and hip you know hips but but anyhow you know that's uh that's kind of i was just fearful you know i was just fearful um i'll just get you know i think just some fear that there's a lot going on and that you know uh and i was that i was just gonna mess you know, that I just lost my confidence. I lost my footing for a second. And going back to what I was talking about and going back to what I was talking about, a baby deer. They come in, they back into the universe. If you ever sometime I'll step at night watching animals be born on the Internet. You know, and I was watching funerals for a while, but my therapist said i should quit watching funerals because it's depressing and i'll say this dude honestly
Starting point is 00:11:10 a lot of the funerals on the internet extremely long like most of them are middle eastern i'm talking you can watch it there's funerals on the internet that are six hours long not and not very bizarre exciting but also bizarre but um you can watch babies be born but baby deers they back into the universe but when they get here their legs are so shaky you know their legs are just like just long just they're almost just like marshmallow with hoofs on the end imagine Imagine trying to stand up on marshmallow. I mean, it's tough. It's almost, you know, it's... And sometimes if you do a lot of drugs or something,
Starting point is 00:11:54 you can have that similar experience. But that's how baby deers are and their legs shake. And that's how I felt. I just felt shaky. I felt like my legs and my neck and everything was just marshmallow. And I just got, I just, you know, I just felt like I didn't want to, I don't know. I just wanted, I don't know. I just didn't feel okay.
Starting point is 00:12:17 And sometimes you're going to have days like that. And so that's just kind of what was going on. And I'm not apologizing. I'm not complaining. I'm not, I just was trying to, you know, the past few days, I was just trying to think about what was going on and I'm not apologizing. I'm not complaining. I'm not, I just was trying to, you know, the past few days I was just trying to think about what was going on. You know, and sometimes fucking, you know, the universe is going to be, you know, it's going to be this, it's going to be this cool little crystal ball that I'm going to play with and look at.
Starting point is 00:12:40 And sometimes the universe is going to be a damn cannonball that's going to rip right by and just rip my sister's tits off, you know? Or it's going to just come steaming fast right through my stepdaddy's legs and just blast his nuts into the next nutosphere. Sometimes that kind of stuff's going to happen. And that's what was going on. So I just had some fear, man. You know, I had some fear of, of just failure, I guess. I had some fear of, you know, I don't know, just everything. I had some fear. So that's what was going on with me. And, uh, and today, and today I'm feeling better. You know, I've done some things. I went for a run. I'm just staying confident. I'm coming back, man.
Starting point is 00:13:28 I'm Stevie fucking Starlight, dude. I'm not Billy Blackhole. I'm not Billy Blackhole, dude. I'm just falling into my own gravity and I'm just going to go hide in my shirt. Like a Punxsutawney Phil that's lazy and don't want to get out there and do his work and see what his fucking shadow's gonna do. I'm not gonna be like that. I'm gonna be like Stevie Starlight
Starting point is 00:13:51 and I'm gonna fucking, when my mom's at work, I'm gonna go in her room and I'm gonna get her nightgown out of the fucking closet and I'm gonna get in front of the mirror and I'm gonna... I'm gonna be human.
Starting point is 00:14:18 That's what I'm gonna do. Thank you guys for joining me, man. It's Thursday. What's going on? What's going on in the universe? I'm here. You know that. You're here. I appreciate you guys for joining me. And I want to thank everybody for listening.
Starting point is 00:14:32 I want to thank everybody on YouTube for subscribing. We're up to 25,000 subscribers. When we get to 30,000, I'm going to put out some new comedy content for you guys. We have the studio. We got some updates coming up up and I'll announce all that stuff next week. Some cool stuff. But, uh, but thank you guys for being here.
Starting point is 00:14:51 What's, what's been going on with me, man? What's been going on in the world that had the state of the union address? Um, yeah, I think what gets me, um, in watching this and then watching the State of the Union address, and just about a lot of the politics these days, is that it seems like, like, I don't think Trump is a neat guy, you know? I don't think he's a great leader. You know, I don't think he embodies, you know, I don't think he gets people you know i think he is a shysty businessman but with all those things said i don't want america to fail just it seems like there's a lot of people out there that want trump to fail and want America to suffer so that they can prove their point or so that they can be right.
Starting point is 00:15:54 And that to me, that's where I don't understand what's going on. That doesn't seem right to me. I hope that he succeeds. I hope that there's success for everyone. I hope that the political, that they are able to figure things out and they get it right and that things change. And I'm not even a politico. I'm not even a fan of politics. But if I don't think that,
Starting point is 00:16:30 if I'm not hopeful, then who am I? Then what am I doing here? Then how do I even call myself an American if I'm not hopeful for better things in our country? if I'm not hopeful for better things in our country. Because it's like even if good news comes out,
Starting point is 00:16:51 if something positive happens, nobody, it's like there's so much, it's still negative stuff on the news. It's still like, there's always like a negative connotation with it. Like why can't we just be excited about something? You know, like black unemployment, they said, and there's caveats to this, I guess,
Starting point is 00:17:12 but that black unemployment was at an all-time low. And you know what? I don't know. I don't even, I didn't look into the stats of that. You know, I didn't look into it. But I'll say this, in my life, I've never even seen that on a ticker. I've never even heard that in the zeitgeist of what's going on.
Starting point is 00:17:38 I've never even heard that uttered in the world. And so to have that be something that's said, that's amazing. I mean, when I was growing up, the only black people that had money were the Dallas Cowboys and people on that movie Coming to America. Those are the only wealthy black people that you would see. And I don't mean that as a shun or anything like that. I'm talking, that is the facts. And those are the facts from my eyes. So those are just my facts.
Starting point is 00:18:12 You know, when I was growing up, you didn't, I didn't, there wasn't a rich black man in my town. You know, I remember my mother for a while dated a man who was black and Jewish. And he was, and I guess one of his parents might have been white. One of his parents, I guess, was Jewish and white. And then one of his parents was black. And he was the closest thing I'd seen to a wealthy black man. And he was from New Orleans.
Starting point is 00:18:52 But I didn't, you know, it wasn't something that was going on. But now? Dude, you go to Atlanta 25 years ago when you go to Atlanta now? Dude, you go walk through the Lenox Mall in Atlanta and you're white? You will. Well, anyway, I felt like the poorest person in town. There's a lot of black wealth. You know, there's a lot of black opportunity.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And I'm not saying like I've had nothing to do with this. But I'm not saying that this isn't something that I've seen in my lifetime. And so this isn't, you know, it's something that is exciting. You know, it's something that is cool to see. It's something where you can see that change can happen. You know, so if I hear a stat like that, or if I hear something that's positive that's positive, I'm still going to be hopeful for America. Whereas I feel like there's people out there that even if, say if the current political regime solved all the, say if they cured cancer. That there's people out there that would be like, nah.
Starting point is 00:20:02 that there's people out there that would be like, meh. Like, you know, like they're just, and at that point it makes me wonder, if I'm thinking that way, is it more about me? Like, what's wrong with me if I'm stuck on that? That, oh, it's, yeah, I don't, because then it's not like,
Starting point is 00:20:22 it's not like I really am interested in the world being a certain way. I'm interested in the world being a certain way. I'm interested in the world becoming a certain way, the way that I want it to become that way. Or something like, you know what I'm saying? I don't know. I just don't understand. There's so many people that just don't even seem hopeful. They're like, love, love, love, love, love.
Starting point is 00:20:47 But then, you know, everything on television, there's just so much hate. It's like, how are you going to get to love if all you're doing is hating all the time? You know, it's the same thing that I, you know, that makes you like, I don't like people that hate so much and so many... You read so many articles and so much anti-USA, anti-American, anti-Trump sentiment. And I get it. Trump is not easily likable at all. But if you're sitting there hating him
Starting point is 00:21:27 but if you're sitting there hating him and then, and then they, and then also hate and not wanting any success for, for the next few years that he's in office or whatever, then how, then what does that mean about you? Or what does that mean? If that's me, what does that mean about me?
Starting point is 00:21:42 Like, is it more about what I want or is it more about what's, you know, that people, that things could actually get better? You know, and how do I get to, and if all I do is hate something, where's my love? You know, I mean, there was, dude, growing up, there was so many, like it was, you know, it was tough. community where they had just generations of lack of education, generations of lack of desire, generations of lack of opportunity. And then it got to the point where, you know, the kids that I, some of the kids that I would grow up with, they just had nothing. They didn't have anything inside of them.
Starting point is 00:22:47 You know, and I'm not saying this to make fun of them or to point fingers at them. I'm saying this because like there would be instances where, you know, I would get jumped by black kids or I would get, you know, threatened or I had a girlfriend that used to get, you know, molested, if you will, by, you know, a tougher black guy on the school bus. And at the time, like, you know, I didn't understand a lot of that stuff. I didn't understand a lot of, you know, where some of these kids were in the history of time and in their lives. But I had to... But I could still... Even though I was angry,
Starting point is 00:23:43 over time I understood, I could understand what was going on. I could understand that, sure, even though some of this behavior is out there, and some of it, of course, is whoever's fault it is, the actual person doing the behavior, it's their fault. There's also an element over time that is built into their world or a lack of elements that are built into some of these kids' lives that makes them be able to function and be comfortable in society. And therefore, that's why sometimes they would act out and behave the way they did. And I had to understand that. And I was still hopeful for these kids and for these communities.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And for these communities, you know, because even though maybe my some of my life wasn't as bad, we were still right there, you know, I hated some of their behavior. I hated being threatened. And, you know, I hated sometimes how mean some of these kids were. You know, and there were white kids that were too. I'm not saying that it was just one way. But some of these kids, you know, there were some black kids that were so just angry, you know, and so mean. But I was still hopeful, even if I didn't like them. I still tried to be, you know, I think understanding where I could and hopeful that things would get better.
Starting point is 00:25:48 And I'm not comparing that to what's going on now. I'm just trying to find a correlation in my life where even if I don't like something, for me to then not want that, you know, or like a person or a group for me to not want them to succeed just to prove my point or to prove or to justify my angst or my anger. That that is something is wrong with me then. That that is because that's selfish. You know, that's selfish. that's selfish. That's selfish.
Starting point is 00:26:29 And it doesn't take away maybe some of the anger that I have towards some of the kids that were violent towards me when I was young or that beat me up or that made me feel less than or threatened me or did some things that were vile that I had to be around. that were vile that I had to be around. But it does, you know, but those are instances that I would then take up with those, I guess, with those specific people. You know, but it's, I don't know, man. I just, my brain's just getting a little bit lost. But sometimes, yeah, I just don't like
Starting point is 00:27:09 some of the energy that's out there where it's not about getting better as a group. And there's not even a look towards that horizon. There's just a, I want to see some failure so that I can be right because we just it's not it's not for the betterment of everyone then we're not gonna you can't we can't get better like that as a group I don't think uh you know and I could be wrong and I'm not I'm not trying to offend anybody. I'm just trying to think and be alive at the same time. And trying to feel and talk at the same time.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Which most of my life has been really tough for me to do. Just because sometimes over the years I don't even know how I was feeling. And I think I was also just been afraid sometimes to talk. I always did humor or told jokes and stuff like that and that sort of behavior because it was the only language that I really, I don't know. It's the only language really that I knew. Sometimes I get scared, I think, and that's where I think a lot of my fear came in on the last episode. And it probably will again, where I just get scared.
Starting point is 00:28:35 I just get scared, you know, being brave enough to say what is okay for me and what my life is and what's going on with me and being brave enough to tell my story you know and nothing honestly dude nothing has made me feel like I moved out here to Los Angeles to be more free you know I mean I love Louisiana I love my home state I love um I love you know that small town vibe I love Louisiana. I love my home state. I love that small town vibe. I love a sense of community. A sense of community saved me from who knows what. Saved me from a lot of stuff. There's a lot of people that lended their heart and their concern and their home even
Starting point is 00:29:28 to make me feel okay. But I get out here to Los Angeles and sometimes I can't even tell, I feel like my story doesn't even exist. Because suddenly there's this, there's just this ghost in the air, there's this thing where people want to... They don't want to look at the big picture.
Starting point is 00:29:50 They want to be right. And some guy out here who... Some white kid who is trying not to be racist and trying not to be a fucking you know uh you know trying not to be a pervert for sure i'm always trying that i mean everybody knows i'm trying not to jerk off locally or even when i'm out of town but you know it's like just because i don't sound and look just like everybody who's just on this cookie cutter plate that I'm not accepted. Or that immediately people just look and judge.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Even though Hollywood's always about love, love, love, acceptance. Try walking into a conversation out here with a gender neutral haircut and a southern accent and see how much people are just like, oh, immediately don't say this guy's this way or this guy's that way.
Starting point is 00:30:54 You know, I've never honestly felt more oppressed in my life. And I grew up in apparently one of the most, you know, racist environments of the world. You know, but the oppression I felt heaviest in my life one of the most racist environments of the world. But the oppression I felt, heaviest in my life, here in Los Angeles. They just try to beat at it.
Starting point is 00:31:17 It's just frustrating. Anyway, I don't want to take us down that path, man. This isn't about me. But they had the State of the Union address. People watched that. There's been a lot of talk recently uh you know a lot of people asking me on social media about tom segura and he is a fellow comedian um and he's a very unique man and um and he has a great podcast called your mom's house and he um And he made fun of Louisiana. He was making fun of Louisiana in one of his
Starting point is 00:31:48 comedic sets. And he was talking about Louisiana and build a wall around it. And he talked about, he used the word retarded. And there's just been an uproar about it. And a lot of people asking me how I feel. And
Starting point is 00:32:04 you know what's funny is before I even knew that this was on television where people could watch it or on Netflix where people could watch it, I heard Tom do that bit. I heard Tom do that set at the Comedy Store a couple of months ago. And I'm sitting in the back and dude, my first feeling was that I was offended. I'm like, man, what the fuck, dude? You're going to make fun of Louisiana? You know, why don't you make fun of one of these, you know, one of these show offs, one of these know-it-all places? You know, why don't you make fun of a Los Angeles or a New York?
Starting point is 00:32:42 You know, or a California or New York. Make fun of a know-it-all kind of place. I'm like, you're picking the lowest hanging fruit there, Tom, Tomcat. And then I'm watching and I'm like, you know, and then I realized I have a part in my Netflix special. There's a bit where I make fun of Mississippi, which is an even easier place to make fun of. So that's when I realized, you know what?
Starting point is 00:33:08 Like, this is just jokes. Even though it might first hit me a little bit uncomfortable because that's my home state, you know that these are just jokes. I mean, I could go, you know, I could raise rebuttal up forever. Louisiana Purchase, one of the greatest deals ever in the universe.
Starting point is 00:33:26 We did that. You're welcome. Okay. Bought most of America for 10 cents an acre. Boomtown. You know, I could say that. You know, I could say that, you know, one of the pseudo birthplaces of jazz.
Starting point is 00:33:44 You know, I could say that we've had, you know, a lot of amazing people come out of Louisiana. You know, I could say, you know, some of the greatest recipes. Dude, come on. They got some trout. They have some trout down there
Starting point is 00:33:57 that if you eat it, that one of your deceased grandparents could probably get that taste in their mouth. Even in their skeleton, wherever they're laying. They could get that taste in their mouth, even in their skeleton, wherever they're laying. They could get that taste in their mouth. And so that's when I realized, you know what? Sure, I could rebuttal, but the thing is, is that it's jokes. And that's Tom's take on it.
Starting point is 00:34:17 And he said, build a wall around Louisiana. And so that's his take. And that's it. And I just have to, you know, I got to realize some things are just jokes especially because if I start to question you know what you know I can say
Starting point is 00:34:31 if I think it's funny or not but if I start to question what he should be able to joke about it's like come on and especially in the south we should be able to take a joke
Starting point is 00:34:40 and there's a lot of places that cannot take jokes but I don't think that the south is one of them. And Tom has to go down there and perform. And people are asking if I'm going to be a security guard down there, if I'm going to be down there opening up.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Not that I know of. And I wish Tom the best down there. I wish him the best. A lot of famous people have been killed. Even if somebody shoots him up, a lot of famous people have been killed in Louisiana. A lot, man. Huey P. Long. Pistol Pete Maravich.
Starting point is 00:35:11 Steven Seagal. Jim Croce. Or Crotche. Larry Sweeney. There you go. So, you know, it's anybody's ball game down there tomcat good luck you know good luck and uh but i'm not i can't be offended so i have to i have to i have to i think we're almost getting in and living out in los angeles and even just being in this world today it's that
Starting point is 00:35:40 offensive that it's becoming that culture it even even infects me. Because I wouldn't usually get offended. But my first thought was to be offended. And I think my reasoning was I just feel like that the South and the Midwest, these places have been picked on enough. You know? But then when I look at my own work, even though I'm from one of these places,
Starting point is 00:36:04 here I am picking on it. So it just, you know, at that point, I just kind of realized that Tom's just telling jokes. And then it made me think, well, maybe I should find a braver place to make fun of. I mean, at least he picked Louisiana. I picked Mississippi, which is even, you know, which is a, which, you know, usually it's like you go down, like every state makes fun of another state. Like, oh yeah. Well, you know, North Carolina is like, oh, well you think we're shitty?
Starting point is 00:36:32 What about South Carolina? South Carolina is like, oh, well you think we're shitty? What about Kentucky? And Kentucky is like, oh, well you think we're shitty? What about Alabama? And it keeps going. But then you get to Mississippi and Mississippi is like, oh, you think we're shitty? Well, and they don't know because there's no other states left. But then also you go to Mississippi, man, and you find some states, man, you have so much more good heartedness.
Starting point is 00:37:09 You have so much more people actually living their lives and getting to know each other. You know, I mean, Los Angeles, we sit in traffic. Everybody acts like it's so diverse out here. Like, yeah, there's a lot of different types of people, but it's not like they interact all the time. Everybody's, for the most part, seems to be in traffic driving to their own little insular universe. Like there's a lot of, like, you know, there's little neighborhoods where everybody's kind of very similar. You know, it's just like, but then we go into our homes and talk about how, and people talk about how diverse and how loving they are. But I've known my neighbors way less when I've lived in Los Angeles than I have any other place that I've lived in America.
Starting point is 00:38:10 And that's true. I've known my neighbors more in other places, including New York City, South Carolina, New Orleans, Arizona. I knew my neighbors more in those places than I have living here. And I've been here for probably about 13 or 14 years. Now, I'm not saying there's not great things about California. I'm not saying there's not great things about California. I'm not saying there's not great things about Los Angeles. But as a place where there's a strong sense of community, anybody who tells you that there is, I think is not realistic. I think that that's, there's very, there's not, it's very me.
Starting point is 00:38:41 Everything is very me out here. And I don't even know why sometimes. I don't even know why I feel that way or why it is that way. You know, I actually met a man on the street earlier. And this was like the first time I said, I said, hey, man, you know, I live right down the street at this address. And if you ever need anything, you know, if you and your wife ever need anything or whatever, you know, I'm down the street.
Starting point is 00:39:06 And I just realized this was just tonight when I went on this run. I was like, man, I've never even said that shit to anybody before. So I don't know. I mean, the only time I knew, I had a neighbor at one of my old places. And he had husbands or men. He, you know, preferred the pleasure or men. He preferred the pleasure of men. And they used to get up there. And sometimes I'd be laying in bed at night listening to these men make love kind of in the distance.
Starting point is 00:39:36 And damn, sometimes it was, you know, it didn't make me erect or anything like that. But it was probably the most I ever even't make me erect or anything like that, but it was, it was probably the most I ever even knew my neighbors really in a weird way. You know, it was probably the closest that I got to knowing any of my neighbors was sometimes listening to this man who used to make soap. He also made soap. He was a soap, a soapsman or a sudsman. I don't even know. I could look it up on my internet. It's having trouble. Um, I would look, you know, and I would listen to him and, and he had a couple of different partners, I think, but that's his shit, dude. That's his life, you know? And it was, but that's
Starting point is 00:40:15 weird that that was kind of the closest thing I felt to neighborly association was, uh, listening to a couple of fellas moving furniture, if you will, You know, a couple of lunch hunters, you know, people hunting, just getting into the dark arts out there. All right, let's get into a little more stuff here. Let's get into a follow-up from some of the stuff that happened last week. You guys hit some calls, and I really appreciate it. I'm not going to let you know a bunch of dates, but I will let you know if you look on YouTube. A, I'll ask you to subscribe, please. And B, I'll let you know I got this Onward t-shirt.
Starting point is 00:40:53 And they got these Onward shirts now at theovon.com slash store, S-T-O-R-E, where you can support the podcast. And that is what is going on. I'll let you know when I'll be in Portland next weekend at Harvey's and we're going to go meet up with the hamster rancher. So they had a man that called in a while back and he ranches hams. And this gentleman, we had a
Starting point is 00:41:16 conversation with him the other night on the phone, on the telephone and he's still out there working with him and he was feeding a couple of them. By bottle, not not breast and that's you know um and that's the way to do it i guess if you're feeding a big group and especially if you're not related to them if you're a man but he was doing that and he was being out there and being regular with these animals and uh and so we're gonna go meet up with him and get out and see a lot of these beautiful hamsters and so i'm very excited about that.
Starting point is 00:41:46 So I'm looking forward to that next week. But we had some calls that came in from you guys in response to some stuff that was going on last week, and I want to get into some of that right now. And these are going to be bought to you by Gray Block Pizza. And Gray Block Pizza, that's over there, 1811 Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles. And I'm going to read you one of the different type of pizza they have right now. And this pizza called the Neve Bianco, the Neve Bianco. And that's red onion, fresh sliced tomato, mozzarella, ricotta, ricotta cheese
Starting point is 00:42:22 with garlic basil on a garlic pesto sauce. And that's that Neve Bianco. 1811 Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles. Go to Grayblock. Get that hit up. And we're so grateful to them and happy to, just the support that they've given. Also
Starting point is 00:42:40 grateful to you guys over at the Patreon and links to Grayblock and Patreon are going to be in the comments. You can grab those and check them out and see what they're doing. We had a guy call in last week and his wife had been drinking and she'd been getting that liquor. And when a woman gets a liquor in her, and look, I'm a feminist as they come. You want to see a lady out there doing something wild? Let's see come. You want to see a lady out there doing something wild? Let's see it.
Starting point is 00:43:07 You want to see a lady? I mean, look, I think ladies were doing just fine. They got the Statue of Liberty. What else, dude? They got... Okay, so maybe we do need a little bit more. We might need... If you want to put a couple ladies in the NFL, then do it.
Starting point is 00:43:29 But I don't see that as equality. I just see that as forcing women into the nfl you know but um but they had you know a lady that called a man called in and said his wife was out there drinking doing liquor and having liquor inside of her she just started drinking and she had recently hooked up with his brother's wife. It was this gentleman that called. I just got a little problem going on. My wife recently started drinking like a couple weeks ago. Her first real night of getting hammered drunk, she wasn't with me. She was with her cousin, and she ended up texting the boy that she used to hook up with. Yeah, and that's the caller. And then he goes on to say that his wife hooked up with his sister-in-law.
Starting point is 00:44:09 And look, I mean, I've seen some things on the Internet, you know, and I've been out there on some of them, you know, crazy websites where you hear them blowjobs going on. And some of them sites have good blowjobs on them, you know. Sound like somebody's washing a car, you know, or putting a sponge in a bucket. One of them real hardy blowjobs, you know. Seem like somebody been, you know, working their neck out before they even show up to, you know, do some work on that car. But this guy have family, this family getting involved now.
Starting point is 00:44:44 And he said that that was what was going on. His wife out there. Being wild and being sentimental. And they'd been at his brother's house. And the wife had snuck out and made woman love. Which I still don't know how they do it really. Because I've even drawn some pictures and it doesn't. Some parts of it don't add up and I made some beautiful woman love though but I do enjoy watching it but I'm
Starting point is 00:45:11 trying not to right now but I had made some woman love and so here's some of you guys responses let's get into it hey this is Ryan from PA I'm just calling in response to the guy who his wife was doing some finagling with his sister-in-law. And I have a similar experience. My ex, she hooked up with a local lesbian once behind my back. Quite frankly, that enraged me because not only it just seemed like a breach of trust, and I'm not really into lesbians and stuff like that, so it didn't really excite me. So I think it's normal to be upset by that.
Starting point is 00:45:53 But basically you should just ask her if it's okay if you did something with someone else, even another guy, if that'd be all right with her. And if it's not, then obviously the scales are a little off, and that's probably unhealthy for your relationship. Wow. Okay, and I appreciate that call, Ryan. Thank you for calling in.
Starting point is 00:46:14 There was a lot right there in Ryan's call because he's saying that this happened to him, and you could tell a little bit in his voice that there was still a little, you know, probably still a little bit of resentment there towards his wife. And I'm guesstimating, Ryan. I could be wrong. And I'm sorry if I'm not trying to judge you. I appreciate your call, man. It's, you know, you're trying to help out this other gentleman.
Starting point is 00:46:37 You know, and that's, you know, we're grateful for that. But, you know, yeah, your wife hooked up with a local lesbian. Now, that's the thing now sometimes a lot of like some lesbian women will even seek out a small community where there are not a lot of lesbian women um you know because then they become that maverick you know they become that they become that uh that sweet treat in the distance because they have you know they probably have a you know a lot of lesbians they have they got that you Because they have, you know, they probably have a, you know, a lot of lesbians, they have,
Starting point is 00:47:07 they got that, you know, they have, you know, nice etiquette, nice things going on. They got, you know, they're active in the community, you know, and so then they're meeting women. And then if a woman has trouble with her man, next thing you know,
Starting point is 00:47:20 who can she go talk to is always available. That lesbian, that local lesbian. And so next thing you know, you're over by that local lesbian's house, and that's a beautiful little trap they got going on. Now, as a man, I'm envious of lesbians. You know? Because they can set up the same old little trap to meet ladies that we used to set up, but our trap's been figured out. You know, I can't just talk to a guy's wife and have it seem like I'm not up to no good or a man can't
Starting point is 00:47:53 do that, but a local lesbian can do that. You know, they can be like, Oh, come over, you know, let's do some, you know, you know, I got this new full body crossword or, you know, where I got, you know, I got, you know, I got this, you know, new juggling kit. Let's learn how to juggle or let's do something. Let's bake, you know, let's bake these, you know, I'm with her cookies. And next thing you know, they're falling in love, these two women. And so obviously, you know, Ryan said that his wife, you know, had made out with a local lesbian and that even though it was a woman, that that challenged his comfort.
Starting point is 00:48:37 And he thinks that that compromised his confidence in the relationship, in his relationship. his confidence in the relationship, in his relationship. And so he is recommending to you that you ask her if you can do the same thing. But now here's the problem. If a man goes and does the same thing, then the man is out there and he's involved with other men. And that's fine. But it's for some reason, there's still this thing where it's not as,
Starting point is 00:49:10 what is that, excuse me, what is that thing? Because yeah, if a woman goes out and about, and is a, I don't know if they call that a lipstick lesbian, but if your wife goes out and about and makes out with another woman, it doesn't seem as taboo as if your husband goes out and just makes out with another man. seem as taboo as if your husband goes out and just makes out with another man. You know, is it because that, you know, that trying or a woman being a lesbian is more,
Starting point is 00:49:39 it's just, it's, is it because, is it looked at easier? Is it just different? Is it because the sexual act, if a man goes out with a, if your husband, if a woman's husband were to go out and be with another man, that that sexual act is more, it's more aggressive? Is that what makes it seem more taboo? Because Ryan here is telling this man, well, ask your wife if you can go be with another man. If you can go do the same thing. And if she says no, then hold her accountable because what she's doing isn't fair. But I'm going to say, you know, Ryan, I think that's good advice. But then if he goes out and does that, he has to go.
Starting point is 00:50:26 What if she says yes? Now he has to go be with another man just to get even with his wife. So now he's out there blowing dudes, you know, and just frisking out. And some dude, you know, in some fella's kitchen or whatever, or by candlelight, you know, watching old episodes of Magnum P.I. or, you know, who knows, you know, and he doesn't even want to be, he's just trying to get even with his wife. That can be a little bit scary. So that's another option. You can get out there and philander with other men locally in order to make things even with your wife, see how she feels.
Starting point is 00:51:01 And maybe that's not a bad idea. You know, bring home a beautiful little, you know, a beautiful little Fauntleroy gentleman. You know, next time you and your wife are about to sit down to dinner, there's a little at the door. And who's that? Oh, that's just my buddy Randall. Spelled R-A-N-D-L-E. And next thing you know, Randall comes in, you know, and he's being wild and he's got a new necklace or something. And next thing you know,
Starting point is 00:51:31 all of you guys are, you know, it's Taco Tuesday. But Randall's over there snacking on some taquitos and trying to send your wife a message. Snacking on some thick taquitos and trying to send your wife a message. Maybe that's how you do it. Maybe that's how you show her, you know, how it would feel if the page is
Starting point is 00:51:52 returned. Let's take another call here. Here we go. Feel at home, what's this trip you got me on? What's up, brother? My name is Joe. I got some advice for this fella that his wife is getting into the dark arts Via the way of the alcohol I guess this is the first time she's started drinking She was straight laced before this happened And then just took a few drinks of alcohol Now this behavior has come about
Starting point is 00:52:16 I would suggest that she probably stop Man, because that's a slippery slope Man, I can see her in six months Down in Tijuana getting Double dicked by two dudes while snorting coke out of a hooker's ass or something. You know what I mean? And that's singing Joe
Starting point is 00:52:32 right there. And singing Joe, that's a deep... I mean, that's a long... So you're saying if she has a little bit of liquor and next thing you know, she's texting ex-boyfriends. That's the part that gets me even more, is that she's texting a high school boyfriend. You know, you guys are married. She's texting a high school boyfriend. Dude, I did a comedy show one night
Starting point is 00:52:52 and a gal that I dated in high school came and she was with her husband and she got drunk and when she was leaving, when they were leaving, she was like reaching for me and I'm no catch. First of all, that was my first thought. But my second thought was, ah, this is awkward because I felt awkward for the guy and it was only because of the alcohol. So yeah, alcohol can have a wild effect. It can be a slippery slope.
Starting point is 00:53:19 Yeah. It's like, where does this end? If first he's texting other, her exes, and then next thing you know, she's, you know, gallivanting with local, you know, local lesbians. Then what? What's the next level? You know, she's out there. She's, you know, doing, buying kilos or she's drug mulling for, you know, hardcore lesbians. You know, she's doing skate, skateboarding.
Starting point is 00:53:47 I don't know. Who knows who knows man a lot of possibilities but uh but yeah i don't know if she could go that far she can end up down in tijuana that seems a little uh a bit much joe so i'm no cartographer but uh i think that that you know there's other more local things could occur before she ends up down there caught up like that. You know, you made it sound like she's really, really caught up, and I must play one more time what you said. Slippery slope, man. I can see her in six months down in Tijuana getting double-dicked by two dudes while snorting coke out of a hooker's ass or something. Yeah, Joe, and that is really, I don't think that that's, that's not what I see. And I'm no crystal baller, but that's not what I see.
Starting point is 00:54:27 Let's get another call. Here we go. Hey, Theo, this is Nathan in Anchorage, Alaska. Say, I'm calling about the gentleman whose wife has just started drinking. He said he was confused if he's supposed to like girl-on-girl action. Most guys do. Well, first off, guys like girl-on-girl action when they are involved. That's true. Because then all you're thinking about is being left out.
Starting point is 00:54:50 It's like looking at pictures of your friends at the beach. You know, being at the beach is cool. Looking at pictures of your friends at the beach, not as cool. But thanks for calling from Alaska, man. I like Alaska. I like callers from Alaska because Alaskans have time to think. You know? And Nathan from Alaska, he probably, I mean, you know.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Sometimes it's nighttime up there. It's nighttime up there for like four months. That's crazy. If you don't think you have a boogeyman under your bed, you're dead. You have to. Four months, there's no way that the dark arts don't really creep in, creep up over the horizon. Nighttime. Four months?
Starting point is 00:55:36 That's got the devil signature all over the bottom of it. Let's hear more, Nathan. If he's sitting on the sidelines watching his wife hook up with other chicks, maybe it's not quite as fun. Sounds like her drinking has really escalated. She just started drinking. Maybe shore the ropes a little bit. You know, you don't want to do 15 Jaeger bombs in 15 minutes. Yeah, that could be it. You know, that's a way to do it is to try drinking together. I am concerned with why she just started drinking. Maybe she's just getting a little bit of her college out. Maybe did she miss that experience and that's what she's getting into?
Starting point is 00:56:18 There's also some adult fun camps that you guys could go to. I know it's a crazy idea maybe, but there's these summer camps you can find online for adults. It's three or four days. You fly in and it's like a crazy idea maybe, but there's like these summer camps you can find online for adults. It's like three or four days. You fly in and it's like a big party where everybody gets to have fun. There might be some swinging, you know, swingers going on. I'm not sure. But I've seen some photos and some
Starting point is 00:56:35 of the people on there look a little bit like they'd be in the swinging. But that could be it. You know, that's an option. You know, if she's getting involved and, you know, if already she's reaching out, you know, like I'm dating your brother's wife. It's just, it's that, that, that what's next, you know, you know, she's snuggling, you know, she's sneaking into your grandmother's bed. Like what is next, man? You know, she's doing,
Starting point is 00:57:03 you know, hospice care for your grandmother but taking things to another level like what's next so that's you you might want to look into that you might want to look into that uh but yeah i'd stay i'd stay cognizant of what's going on you know because that's pretty that's a lot you got a lot going on right there. But I would communicate with her how you feel so that if certain behaviors occur or continue to occur and she knows how you feel, then at least you're going to have in the court of emotion when you guys discuss stuff, um in in the in the court of emotion when you guys discuss stuff you're gonna uh you get your case is gonna have your a lot of your case will already have been presented along the way you know so trying to communicate or i think could be helpful there but i don't know yeah but she started you know she you know that local lesbianism and i remember they had a couple ladies in our town,
Starting point is 00:58:06 furniture movers. And these were some early lesbians. Back in the day, a lot of lesbians were in the furniture moving business. And antiques, antiquing. And they moved, I remember ordering a love seat off the internet and they brought it and they, or not the internet, off the phone.
Starting point is 00:58:23 That's when you called a number on the television and they brought it over and they ended up moving into our neighborhood. They bought some drugs and moved into our neighborhood. And they made love to a couple people's mothers over about the next decade. Probably six to eight people's mothers. All right.
Starting point is 00:58:39 But that's all the responses to the calls from last week. If you have a question, a concern, something that's going on in your life, you can hit the hotline, 985-664-9503. We're going to get into just a couple more calls that came in that were not related to that wife fiasco that's going on up there. Let's get into one of those right now. Here we go. Theo Vaughn. This is Kenneth from Las Vegas, Nevada. What's up, Kenneth? Calling in from Las Vegas. That's a sin city.
Starting point is 00:59:12 And you sound young, and who knows how old you'll actually be able to get growing up there in sin. Let's go more. I'm in the United States Air Force. Thank you for your service. I just wanted to know your thoughts on gambling. I'm down a couple hundred. I want to know
Starting point is 00:59:31 should I keep doing it? Is it something bad that I'm in? But man, let me tell you I think I should. I want to hit the big money. I want to hit it not just for me, but for everybody. I want to get your opinion on the dark arts of gambling.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Well, first of all, Kenneth, thanks. Second of all, you said you're down a couple hundred. Should I? And then I love the fact that you immediately think you should. That's obvious. You're obviously at the casino right now and have ducked off to the side to make the call.
Starting point is 01:00:11 And look, man. Gambling's fun. Dude, gambling is fun. I remember I was at the casino playing craps one time in New Orleans and I won, I think, probably about $1,100 and I bought bathing suits for everybody at the craps table.
Starting point is 01:00:25 Everybody got a bathing suit. And a buddy of mine, another time, bought a clothing iron for everybody. Everybody at the table got an iron. So there's a lot of good opportunities in casinos. But you said, this is my favorite part of your call right here, let's hear it. Something bad that I'm in? But man, let me tell you. I think I should.
Starting point is 01:00:50 I want to hit the big money. I want to hit it not just for me, but for everybody. Yeah, that's a cool excuse. I want to hit the big money not just for me, but for everybody. For who? For America? For who? Who are you talking about? everybody?
Starting point is 01:01:05 most people are probably asleep it sounded like this was at the middle of the night you know gambling look if you can have fun with it that's fine if you wake up tomorrow morning and you have to go gamble again it might be an issue you know I think you just have to look at your own track record only you know if you got a problem
Starting point is 01:01:21 but gambling gambling can be risky man I'll tell you this I'll tell you this gambling story Only you know if you got a problem. But gambling can be risky, man. I'll tell you this. I'll tell you this gambling story. I saw a dude one time at a party, right? And he bet this hot girl, this hot chick. He bet her. He said, if I let your friend, the hot chick's friend was a man.
Starting point is 01:01:42 And he was a gay male. He said, if I let your friend give me a blowjob will you have sex with me? and the girl said yes if you let my friend give you a blowjob I'll have sex with you so then the dude lets the gay guy give him a blowjob then the girl
Starting point is 01:02:03 bails out of the fucking deal. So, I mean, that's what you get for gambling, you know? What are you going to do? You know, you placed your bet and I'm not going to say you lost. I mean, you got a blowjob out of it. That's what the guy got, but not from who he wanted. So it's just risky. Gambling's risky, man. So if you want to gamble, you go on, but you be careful. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:02:33 We've got another call that came in here, and this is from Ben. He wants to know, it's about a stalker. Let's hear it. Yo, Theo, what's up, man? My name is Ben, and I got a little bit of a situation here. This girl, I've been seeing her for a while now, and she's cool. We got this thing going on. We're doing our thing.
Starting point is 01:02:52 It's not like exclusive or nothing, but we get down and all that. Okay, gang, gang, man, you got that. Let's hear more. We've been going out for probably eight months now, something like that. That's pretty crispy, dude, eight months, bro. You know what I'm saying? That's real stuff. Dude, in some places, that's a marriage.
Starting point is 01:03:09 If you guys die in a month, that's, you know, that's, well, it didn't really pertain to it. But still, eight months is a long time. Let's hear more. And she recently told me that she's got a little bit of a stalking situation. She's got a little bit of a stalking situation. Not exactly a little bit, because the dude is literally outside her door every day. She wakes up, and he is just there. She wakes up, and he's just there?
Starting point is 01:03:39 He's not a roommate, huh? Let's hear more. It's kind of awkward, because we all kind of go to the same school, and he's in one of her classes, and it's been going. Apparently, this has been going on for like nine months or so. And she said she tried to like switch up her roots last year and all that, and he still somehow found a way to find her. This is the first time I'm hearing about it. Hey, stalker's going to stalk, you know?
Starting point is 01:04:07 I mean, he's obviously good at what he does. You have to respect that a little bit. You don't want one of these weak-ass stalkers that's kind of, you know, well, maybe you do want a weak-ass stalker. Let's hear more about it. And I guess she thought she could handle it on her own. And then she finally came to me, you know, should I have fucked this dude up? Or, I don't really want to start a fight
Starting point is 01:04:28 because I don't want to get in trouble with the school. Right, you don't want to get in trouble with the school. And I'm just, I'm cutting that call there. But look, you got a stalker, a couple of ways to go about it. You know, if you fight a stalker, I mean, it's just going to, you know, he's obviously a sick guy.
Starting point is 01:04:44 There's something wrong there. So maybe even having a conversation with him, you know, maybe saying, look, guy, what's going on? You know, like, um, I'm not angry at you. I don't think you're a bad person, but this is what's going on. It makes me, this is, this is how it plays to us. And it makes us feel uncomfortable. You know, like, you know, I'm trying to have a relationship with this girl and you're trying to fucking, you know, hang out in the garden and looking through the windows and it's not, we're not working conducively together. So maybe just being real with him about it.
Starting point is 01:05:19 You know, talking about it like that. Now, if he continues to escalate, now you said your girl might want to fight him. That's probably a better way to go than by you slipping in and fighting him. So at least that way, you know, it's her because these days if, you know, a woman can beat
Starting point is 01:05:35 up a stalker and that's nothing. I mean, that's like, nothing's going to happen to anybody, you know, not to her. You know, I mean, it's carte blanche on stalkers right now every stalker is getting their ass whipped by you know a lot of women are kickboxing and everything just to beat up stalkers so if you even used to stalk and don't anymore and have moved on from it and even started your own family women are going to track you down probably and beat your
Starting point is 01:05:58 ass now because they can it's that time time's up for stalkers. So I would, you know, I would talk to the guy and then if it still escalates, I would have your chick fight him. That's what I would do. Appreciate you calling though. Let's hit this call right here. Here we go. Hey, yo, Theo, man.
Starting point is 01:06:20 This is Mickey calling from Seattle. So here's my situation, man. I'm 30 years old. Thanks for calling in, Mickey from Seattle. And I will actually be up in Seattle or Tacoma in a couple of weeks, next month, I think. Onward. And I'm currently at the end stage of a lung disease. Now, my current lungs don't have very long left, probably about two and a half years. Hopefully, my current lungs don't have very long left, probably about two and a half years. Hopefully we can stretch them out. But the silver lining is that I'm going to
Starting point is 01:06:53 be soon on the lung transplant list. I'm hoping I'm going to get listed. Wow, man. Congratulations on that. So you got two and a half, you got two and a half, you got two and a half years left on these ballast tanks you got in you now. And then you're going to get on the transplant list. That's beautiful. When I was young, my sister was born with a rare disease called biliary atresia, and she got a liver transplant when I was 14. young and we spent a lot of time filling out these envelopes and mailing them off to strangers to get them to
Starting point is 01:07:27 donate money to get that liver. You know, because you got to get that liver. And I remember getting pissed even because, you know, there'd be shit I didn't get shit for Christmas or whatever and I'd be pissed and my sister was going to get a liver and I wasn't getting, you know, some fucking new BK Knights or some, you know, some type of
Starting point is 01:07:43 bullshit or some socks or whatever. Onward. Which will give me a few more years to figure this whole thing out. And it's been a really difficult time, and I've been single through it. My question to you, man, is during this difficult time that's really ruined my confidence, I wanted to ask you and the viewers what they think, what are some good steps that I can take to start boosting my confidence and my self-worth to be able to start getting back out there and start talking to girls again? Damn, boy.
Starting point is 01:08:19 Freaking no-lung Mickey out there in the universe. You know, he got that last, he got a last, he got a couple years left on them lungs, and he's trying to inhale a little bit of love into his life, it sounds like. Man, that's brave, you know? That's ballsy. You know, because a lot of people, they got a couple years left, they could, and it's obviously, it sounds to me, it's obvious you're looking for a little bit of love. A little bit of that aorta pump, you know?
Starting point is 01:08:46 You're trying to get that hitter up in your systole and diastole. Because if he's looking for sex, you can get sex. Go to Backpage.com. Go to Eros.net. You go to FreeSalmon.net and get sex if you want it. But obviously you're looking for love.
Starting point is 01:09:03 So that's it. You know what? Maybe we leave. Look guys. If you have advice for Tom. This dude's got two and a half years left on his lungs. And I'm guessing if you don't get new lungs. You know. It's a breathers ball game out here in the universe.
Starting point is 01:09:17 And I'm not trying to be cold to you. But you probably know it better than anybody Tomcat. Or Mickey. Sorry. I don't know why I called you Tomcat. Because I wasn't paying attention to my own thoughts. But Mickey, it's a breather's game out here. And if you ain't breathing, you out.
Starting point is 01:09:35 And I hope that doesn't happen for you, man. And what I would like to do is, yeah, I'd like to ask our callers, if you have advice, Mickey's got a couple years left. He's got them terminal lungs. Dude's got, you know, he's coming in light in the lungs and what do what do you suggest for him you know how do you meet a lady some girls might think it's cool you're not even gonna be around for a long time you know like i'm gonna damn that's dark i'm sorry i guess i'm feeling kind of maybe a little bit dark but that might be a good pickup strategy. You know, hey, guess what?
Starting point is 01:10:07 You know, you only got to date me for a couple of years, you know, like maybe lay down some money on your life insurance and, you know, hit a lady up that way. It's a dark take, but I think these days, if a woman has a sense of humor, she's going to like that. You know, because women want that rescue and you got that rescue right now you have that rescue that's all over you you know women want that you know that uh they want that man on that transplant list they want that man who's you know long you know maybe is you know on a kid you know having a kidney issue or something, you know, has been in a fire or something. Women are intrigued by that. They want that rescue.
Starting point is 01:10:49 It's in their blood to want to help. So I think you're going to have that going for you. But how do you boost that confidence? Yeah, that's wild. You know, that's really, really wild. But I think it probably comes back to how do we all boost our confidence? And part of it is just, you know, I don't know if maybe some women have let you down or made you feel bad because of this issue. But if they have, man, you got to get back on there and just keep trying.
Starting point is 01:11:20 You know, it's just like last week when I didn't even know if i wanted to you know i couldn't do it but i just you know came back this week you know i had to freaking strap my lungs back in get back into the studio but i can say this man i'm gonna be up in seattle up in your area in tacoma let me look and see when i am maybe we can find you a date. What about that? That's a good idea. I'll be up there in March 15th and 16th. I'll be in Tacoma at the Comedy Club. So ladies, if there's anybody that lives in Seattle or if you're a man and you have a friend that live out there that might be interested in meeting a guy like Tom. You know, that ticking Tom bomb.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Because that dude only got so much time. Oh, it's not even Tom. His name's fucking Mickey. Damn. Fuck, dude. Sorry, bro. Well, look, bro. Who cares what your name is, dude? You know what I'm saying? It's not about your name.
Starting point is 01:12:19 It's about you know, that you have bad lungs and that this is, you know, what are you going to do? And I'm going to try to boost your confidence a little bit by saying, let's catch up when I'm out there in Tacoma and let's get you a date. That's fucking tricky Mickey, dude. You know, he's got them tricky airbags inside of him.
Starting point is 01:12:42 You know, he's got two and a half years left on his lungs. He got them leased. He's got them leased. He's got them leased lungs. You know, and I had a bad lease on a car a couple years back. And it's not the same thing, but, you know, I only got so many miles. I can only drive, I got 4,000 miles a year
Starting point is 01:12:57 on a lease. And Jesus, it, uh, it was miserable. I remember pushing, sometimes I would have to push my car to get to where I was going to not have that odometer rack up. Because it's expensive. But yeah, let's see if you have any ideas for Tom for boosting his confidence when he's under the gun of physical impairments. I know we got a boy down there in Alabama who doesn't have a leg and he stays confident. And I'd love to see maybe what his thoughts are if he doesn't mind hitting the hotline again.
Starting point is 01:13:35 If you have an impairment and you deal with the confidence, but you got some ideas for my boy, why don't you hit us up and let us know? And we'll see if we can't help him out. That's exactly what I'm thinking right there. Let's take this one last call right here. And this is from Tom. Here we go. Hey, Theo.
Starting point is 01:13:52 It's your boy Tom from rural North Carolina. I've been kind of dabbling in the dark arts recently. And this dark artist Tom from rural North Carolina. And I do remember you, Tom. Early caller from the beginning of the show. Thank you. I've been talking to this chick online, super cool, but she's got a boyfriend.
Starting point is 01:14:07 And I'm a single guy, so there's nothing wrong with me, but the amount of time she spends texting me and talking to me and Snapchatting me, and it's nothing like, it's a little flirty, but it's nothing like sexual. It's nothing super promiscuous. I think if her boyfriend saw the stuff, I don't think he'd be thrilled.
Starting point is 01:14:24 I don't know what I'm doing is right. I really like the girl a lot. I think she really boyfriend saw the stuff, I don't think he'd be thrilled. I don't know what I'm doing is right. I really like the girl a lot. I think she really likes me a lot, a little bit more than just casual friends. She's not happy with her current boyfriend, but she's not necessarily looking to leave. Am I doing the right thing with doing this? And if she's doing it to this guy, will she turn around and do it to me later? I kind of feel shitty doing this to this dude. Okay, so you're texting a guy's girlfriend.
Starting point is 01:14:48 You know, I'm going to tell you, here's what I'll say. If you get murdered by this guy, a lot of people aren't going to feel that sorry for you. You know, it's risky. You know, you're fulfilling a need, but you're not, you know, you're fulfilling a need but you're not you know you're not standing up for yourself if it's just it's just risky man you don't know that dude you don't know what he's into you don't know how much he you know he might have anger towards
Starting point is 01:15:19 his he might have anger towards her he'll take that out on you if he finds out. You know, it's risky. It's risky, dude. So I don't know what to tell you. But I think you probably know what to tell yourself. You know, if you're texting some man's girlfriend, just even saying that, sound it out. I'm texting some man's girlfriend. If that dude shows up and wants to bake me a brisket made out of my own ass,
Starting point is 01:15:51 I can't be surprised, dude, when that dude warms my ass up with his fists. When that dude beats my ass. So be safe out there, Tom. That's all I can tell you, bro. Because it's dangerous. This ain't no game. That's like little Kenneth out there gambling.
Starting point is 01:16:07 Out there down 200 wanting to win money for America. You know? When people's out here getting blowjobs from people of the same sex. That's not what they planned on. The dark arts abound, Tom. And if you don't believe that, then I don't know what to tell you. But if you guys got some advice for Mickey,
Starting point is 01:16:34 then hit us up on that. And oh, how ironic that I kept messing up the name Tom, and then Tom actually was our last caller today.
