Starting point is 00:00:14 That's right! Did you know it's also covered by most private insurance plans? Well, I'll definitely be asking my doctor if Rebelsis is right for me. Rebelsis. Ask your doctor or visit Rebelsis.ca. Order up for Rebelsis. This week's episode brought to you by Gray Block Pizza at 1811 Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles on the way to the beach. You headed to the sunshine. You want some sand in your feet. On the way there, stop in. that italian mouthful you know gray block
Starting point is 00:00:45 get that hitter this week's episode brought to you by my west coast buds it is a podcast it is a show with an inside look at cannabis comedy coffee and saudi arabia no i'm joking. Spirits, like alcohol. Cannabis, coffee, comedy, and spirits. It's all of my favorite vices. A gentleman named Joe Demio, and that could be, you know, Demio could be anything. Italian, foreign, basic, local. Sounds like a young everything. But Joe Demio owns a dispensary in Tigert, Oregon. That's that Upper East Coast bud shop.
Starting point is 00:01:27 And the place is called Cola Cove. And he also acts as a cannabis consultant. Joe teaches people how to get into the weed game as a way to keep the bills paid while he works on being a stand-up comic. So Joe, smoke buds by day, jokes by night. That's what Joe Demio's doing. His show, My West Coast Buds, is a fun inside baseball look at all of those industries. Comedy and weed. How to make whiskey. How to grow pot.
Starting point is 00:01:52 How to craft a proper dick joke. Stiff like that. This week's guest comedian is Caitlin Weyerhaeuser. And they talk about comedy and why she's offended and she's never been haunted by a ghost. The link will be below. All right. Now let's get involved in each other's lives. I'm out. That's it. Brad Levine right there.
Starting point is 00:02:53 And that's Better Off Barefoot. And that is sent in by Brad Levine. And we're thankful for that hitter right there. It is May 14th. And it's the year 2018, and that's what's going on. We're out here in the millennium. We're out here in the universe. You know, we had Eddie Bravo in as a guest this past week, and that man, he's keyed up.
Starting point is 00:03:23 He's keyed up on life. that man, he's keyed up. He's keyed up on life. You know, every time you talk to him, it seemed like he's on about a, about an eight ball of, of just existence. You know, you ask him anything and you know, he just goes off. He's like a golden retriever with a hearing problem. You know what I'm saying? He's off, he's gone. You know what I'm saying? He's out there chasing invisible Frisbees. You know, he's out there chasing a Frisbee that was, you know, that just topped out at about 20,000 feet. And that thing might not land until Idaho. But that's how Eddie Bravo is. He's out there. He's out there. And it was interesting to hear a man, I mean,
Starting point is 00:03:59 it was interesting just if you didn't get to catch the interview, it was just interesting to hear a man who had taken on so many things in his life. Everything he got into, not only was he able to get involved and really delve into music, sports, chasing ladies, but he made it into a business along the way. But he made it into a business along the way. So he was able to take his passions and make them into enough of a business where he was able to sustain himself while he chased individual dreams. And that's, I mean, that's amazing. I mean, that's amazing to think that, oh, I like something. So I'm going to make it, you know, I'm going to make my dream a financially sustainable reality while I chase it. And this dude was a straight up dream hopper. Eddie Bravo is a dream hopper. If you see him on one dream tonight, you better you better circle the clouds because he going to be on another dream tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:05:07 That man just goes dream to dream. He's out there just, you know, he's out there just dreaming. You know, he's just out there just jumping from one dream to the next. And, you know, he tried football. He tried, you know, he tried music. He got into jujitsu. You know, now he's out there. He's thinking about outer space. His brain has left earth. He's out there chasing what could be next.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Give that motherfucker a couple months. He'll build a shuttle. Eddie Bravo will go looking for the truth. Is he a part-time astronaut? I don't know. But I bet he's got it in his DNA. I bet if you look in through his DNA, I bet the A stands for Armstrong and the N stands for Neil. I bet he's got that D Neil Armstrong in him. Because Eddie Bravo, you give him that chance, boy, he'll be out there looking for the moon. You give that dude a couple pieces of siding and some bubble gum and an old washer dryer. Bro, that dude is, I mean, he's Latino to the core.
Starting point is 00:06:12 He'll make the most out of everything. He don't miss a beat. And he about to turn that washer, you know, he's about to turn that washing machine and that two pieces of siding, you know, that two piece. He's about to turn that into a damn shuttle, you know, Viallo, El Bravo in La Galaxia. But if you get a chance, check out that Eddie Bravo, man. It was amazing to have him in studio and just to, it was just inspiring. It was inspiring to see somebody, because what I do is I'll get involved in something and then I'll, you know, I won't, I won't have the, the tenacity to also make it a business while I am investigating it. And he just hopped it throughout his life from one thing to the next
Starting point is 00:06:57 and made small business along the way, made a band, you know, made a juju, dude started learning jujitsu and next thing you know, he's winning champ. He's beating, he's beating the greatest in other countries. Other countries. Think about how many other countries there are. Yeah, so many. And he, Eddie Bravo was beating people in other countries. So if you got to listen to that, cool. If you don't know about Eddie Bravo, that's the thing is he's a, look,
Starting point is 00:07:22 he's like one of them cans of, you ever get one of those cans of snakes in the mail? Somebody send you a can of snakes, fake snakes. And you think, oh, it's just a can. It's just Pringles. It's just chips. You know, I'm about to sour cream and onion myself down into a straight up couch coma. And then your spouse or your, you know, your friend or your loved one is going to come in, you know, a couple hours later and found you just comatose in some cushions.
Starting point is 00:07:50 But you open that can. It's not Pringles. It's fake snakes. Somebody sent you fake snakes. Come on. And they popping out. And that's Eddie Bravo, man. You ask him a question.
Starting point is 00:08:02 You take that top off. And you think it's going to be chips. You're going to have one. He's going to have one. It's going to be that convo. But it's just snakes, boy. Just snakes flying out of that beautiful man. And look, you know, anybody that can tempt the brain of Joe Rogan for years, decades even, man, I was honored to have him in studio.
Starting point is 00:08:22 And it was fun. It was fun because, you know, he talks a lot about outer space. He thinks outer space is fictional. You know, so when he looks up at the stars, it's like you and me just looking at a painting. You know, he thinks somebody did it and it's out there. You know, it's like something that Microsoft made or something. And I don't disrespect it. You know, my original thought is to think like,
Starting point is 00:08:46 oh, you know, maybe that's crazy, but is it crazy? Dude, I showed up here on a ball of dirt and water and fell out, I fell out of a uterus, bro. A uterus, something that's hard to spell. I fell out of that onto a ball of dirt and water floating in the middle of nowhere. Could anything be crazier than that? Doubt-sy, doubt-sy, doubt-sy. Come on, man. Come on. Thank you guys for joining me here today, man. I'm happy to be with you guys. Thank you guys for checking out the Eddie Bravo episode. You can also, I was on this thing called JK News and you can see it on YouTube. And look,
Starting point is 00:09:28 I'll be straight up with you. These people in there are Asian and Latino. And by Latino, I mean pretty much Mexican. And man, I was nervous when I got in there and I was nervous, I guess. Man, I was nervous when I got in there. And I was nervous, I guess. I was nervous because, honestly, I thought that, I guess part of me, you go into a place and I thought that these people were better than me. Or that they were thinking that they were better than me. And they weren't. They weren't.
Starting point is 00:10:01 It was just this weird fear in my head. So I got into was early, it was kind of early in the morning for me. I had a late night of doing shows. And next thing you know, I'm there. And, you know, I got in there. It's like a half hour till we start. And they're eating Asian food early in the morning. And some people could say, oh, you're being racist. I'm not being racist.
Starting point is 00:10:21 I love Asians, dude. Give me an Asian right now. Give me an Asian, dude. I'll fucking put them in my shirt. I'll hug them. I'll hold them. I'll start a family, bro. I'll put cinnamon on them and start a family of cinnamon Asians. Never seen. Never seen by anyone rare. Very rare. Them CAs. But I'm not going to talk about them. Not going to say the word Asian because it's strange. You don't have to describe somebody to you and be vague. No. Elsewhere, please, if you're thinking like that.
Starting point is 00:10:54 But dude, I was in there and I felt inferior a little bit. And so I was kind of scared and I was on my phone and like, you know, looking up like man shit on my phone. Like looking up like sports. Even though it was 1030 a.mm there's like no sports going on so i'm on espn app just like looking up cricket scores and like uh you know soccer liverpool is liverpool in every soccer game because every time i look on it it's just that's all it is liverpool liverpool liverpool so that's kind of how that broke down. And I'm sitting there. And then we got started.
Starting point is 00:11:27 And it was fun, man. It was like, you know what I realized? I never hung out with Asian people that much. And these people, they had Vietnamese. They had Japanese. You know, they had straight up fucking Dragon Ball Z was in that motherfucker. It got hella Asian. I didn't know what was going on.
Starting point is 00:11:50 And man, their show, the Japanese and Mexican hosts that were in there were more real than any of the shows I've been on. I think a lot of like, and there's this thing in like, with some of the white hosts that I've been around, the white culture where we are afraid to speak our minds. And those people are fearless. And dude, I didn't, I guess I thought I would go and it would be less, you know, I guess I thought that they would be more fearful for some
Starting point is 00:12:20 reason, but it was inspiring. I got in there and they were fearless. They shared what they really felt. And they weren't, and you could tell where they came from. They weren't from a bad place, but they were just very real. And it was refreshing. And so I'm thankful to them. That stuff's called JK News. And we did about 15 clips and it's all out there on YouTube if you want to check it out.
Starting point is 00:12:41 But thank you for joining me, man, this past weekend. You know, tonight I'm going to, oh, I got to tell you this. Mickey got them hitters. Trick Lung Mickey got them air sacks. And if you, you know, follow me on Instagram, you see that we put a picture of him up and he got them. Man, and he got them. And it just, man, look, I got so many messages and I'm not even him. You know, I'm just that liaison.
Starting point is 00:13:10 I'm that third lung, baby. You know, I'm out here pumping from the side, just cheering him on. Just come on, man. Come on. And it was just great, man. I mean, the dude just warms my heart because he's going to be alive as far as we know. And here's the crazy part, though. I haven't gotten to talk to him yet because I don't know if he could talk.
Starting point is 00:13:32 I don't know if he's got words in his new lungs yet because you've got to relearn them hitters. But he's got them healthy sacks. That dude's running on two freaking, who knows how much air he's going to have. He'll probably be fucking whistling by, you know, by Thursday. He could be hailing calves by next week. That mother, he could be calling a dog from far away. Anything. And here's the wildest part.
Starting point is 00:13:59 He got them. He got them straight up inner, you know, them inner air titties. He got them from somebody had overdosed. Somebody overdosed, you know, and that's just such a crazy circle. Like somebody was so sick, you know, they were sick and they couldn't get well and they overdosed and God took them out of the game and he took them hitters and put them in the mitt. And I'm thinking, my first thought is, dude, well, what if that dude was smoking crack? And now Mickey got them straight up crack bags in him.
Starting point is 00:14:36 You know? He got them straight up, them rock rockets inside of his chest. What if he starts, that dude might walk out of the hospital fiending for, you know, fiending for that baby,
Starting point is 00:14:49 that chemical boulder, that crack cocaine. He might be fiending for that. And so I'm a little bit worried about that. What if that dude was smoking dope all day and, you know, he got the, trick lung,
Starting point is 00:15:04 Mickey's going to come out with them narco sacks. He's going to come out wanting to hunt in a ground. He's going to come out sniffing for grams, you know, like a rabbit. It's like a, he's going to come out sniffing for grams like a rabbit, like a rabbit that was raised in Columbia, like a Colombian jackrabbit. So it's a little alarming, but at the same time, you know, that's the chance you take. You know, instead of having hardly any lungs, at least he got lungs. Even if those lungs, you know, if they're addicted to cocaine or to crack cocaine, I'd rather have Mickey out there
Starting point is 00:15:39 on the street out there, you know, doing what he's got to do, you know, selling a little bit of leg or vending a little bit of ass cheek or whatever he's got to do, you know, at least he'll be alive. And so I'm just grateful, man. I'm just grateful to know him. You know, I don't have anything to do with it. I'm just, you know, what does it say in that shine song that we listen to, it says, Shine your light on me, tell you my story, or something like that. But I'm just sharing the story, man, and it's a feel-good story for me. Man, I take that inhale, and I know that Mickey's going to be doing that same thing. And now we can relate to each other off that world hit. So that's exciting, man.
Starting point is 00:16:26 What else happened to me? I'm still on that paleos, boy. I'm still on that paleos diet. And I don't know who paleos was, but I'm sure he died of starvation because I haven't eaten. Dude, you know what I'm saying? I look down, when somebody's talking,
Starting point is 00:16:41 I'm trying to look down their throat to see if they got anything in them. That's how hungry I am, boy. You know, I'll lick a little bit of chocolate out of one of your molars, boy. I'm fucking hungry. And most of you just end up reading like the bad, like basically it's not even about diet. It's more about reading because I'll pick up anything. I'll read it. It'd be like, oh, I can't have what's in here, and then I'll put it down. So paleo's diet is mostly more about reading and learning, I guess brushing up on your reading. If you want to brush up on some reading, do paleo's. Because you read all the labels, you can't have anything.
Starting point is 00:17:17 So that's where I've been at. What else? What else is going on? I'm trying to think of what I've been feeling, man. They have the Mitzi Shore Celebration of Life, and that's the woman that started the comedy store. So I'm going to her Celebration of Life tonight. there. I'm going to try to put something up on Patreon for everybody, but I'm hoping to see some guys, maybe Howie Mandel. Eddie Murphy could come out. Jim Carrey could come. You just don't know. Anybody that's ever been associated with the place could pop through. So that should be kind of an eclectic evening and an evening of joy. And so I'm excited to be about there and be about that. and be about that. And what else is going on, man? You know, it was kind of a calm weekend.
Starting point is 00:18:17 I did a lot of comedy sets. Not much, really. Oh, I had a crazy dream, dude. I had a dream, right? I had a dream that I was in this airport and there was water in it. And not only did you have to get to your flight, but you had to like swim to the door. You know, you had to swim to the door of your flight. And so that was pretty intense because it's hard to get to your flight anyway. And then everybody's trying to swim and catch their breath. And some people are just laying on floaties and shit. And you're like, damn, dude, I got to get to my gate. And they got a motherfucker out there with a mai tai you know and he's hitting a cigar and shit and you just trying to you know i'm just breast stroking a c12 you know i'm trying to
Starting point is 00:18:55 catch that i'm trying to catch that connection so i had one of those you know watery airport dreams Watery Airport Dreams. And that's it.

We'll connect, you know, whatever previous episode we have, we'll connect, you know, calls and responses into the next episode. Those won't a lot of times be on the interview episodes.

Starting point is 00:19:34 and being a part of things. We'll just get into a couple of calls. I'll tell you too right now, and some of you guys know it and some of you don't, that I'm going to be at Clusterfest in San Francisco June 2nd and 3rd. I'm not doing much time there.

It was like lava, jump on the couch, jump on the chair, jump on the end table. Mom beat ass. But that's real life in Hawaii.

And that sounds like a lot of pressure, bro. Dude, that sounds like a lot
Starting point is 00:27:32 of pressure. You know what I'm saying, bro? Dude, you ever notice like some Latino guys when they talk, they start getting looking just higher and higher at the sky, you know? Oh, I'm up here now. Thank you for calling, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:27:48 I appreciate it, man. That sounds like a lot of pressure being named after Jesus. Gosh. Dude, that's like naming your kid Michael Jordan. Like, I met a dude named Michael Jordan that worked at the airport one time. And I'm like, damn, bro. Like if you was, you know, you know, Sherman Jordan, then yeah, work at the airport. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:28:14 Y'all got a nice squad over there. You know, you working for Virgin Atlantic or United. But damn, fucking Michael Jordan out here going two for two on these check bags. Just a lot of pressure, man. So let's hear more. Jesus, thanks for calling. And you were wondering who listens to the podcast. I am a cook, a line cook, I guess you could say.
Starting point is 00:28:40 I work for a corporate facility. Don't know if I'm supposed to say the name, but I'm going to say it anyway. I work for one of the Apple cafes where they feed their employees. Wow. Hey, Seuss, that line cook. And I'll be honest, dude, working as a cook, dude, you'll end up on drugs, man. So be careful out there. You know, especially if you're Jesus, dude,
Starting point is 00:29:06 people are going to be offering you dope. Because everybody want to fucking bust a rail with Jesus. And I'm not trying to sound sacrilege, but that is the truth. That's the crazy part, dude. If somebody met Jesus and he was trying to talk, you know, really kind of keep them straight edge, you know somebody's going to try to bust JC a rail.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Somebody's going to try to sneak him that 8BZ. Somebody going to drop a couple of straight rocks in his pox. You know somebody going to fucking, you know, just try to, you know, somebody going to try to get a couple grams up in his system. Try to get up in his Philippians, bro. Try to fill his Philippians up with some of that dust, dust, some of that dust, dust. Come on. So I look and you're at Apple. What are you feeding those people? What do they eat? People at Apple? I can't even imagine. I bet it just seemed to me like they would just come
Starting point is 00:30:01 through like robots, you know, like they just all have sunburn on their face from the screen. Just screen burn. You know, some dude's been on Google on a search engine for so long, he just has it like imprinted into his face. Onward Jesus, thanks for calling and thanks for listening. Let's hear more. It's a cool job. I went to culinary school a couple years ago. And this is where I ended up because the money is better than working at a restaurant and the hours don't suck ass.
Starting point is 00:30:32 This is what I am doing, feeding a bunch of programmers and a bunch of nerds, basically. That's it. You got them nerd eats. You got them nerds. Bro, you should do a little thing where you throw a couple treats in the air and watch a couple of them dudes catch them watch them get all fired up play three flies in with a couple of bugles
Starting point is 00:30:52 or some Fritos you know watch them glasses get all steamed up couple of dudes nerding out couple of dudes geeked up carpal tunnel that's carpal tunnel country cause you know people get all hopped up on them space bars and you know and next thing you know they can't move their arms. You know and they got to hug elbows first. They can't really use their hands. So they can't even juggle.
Starting point is 00:31:15 They just you know a lot of times they won't juggle. They'll just have three balls just sitting next to them and they'll just be standing there. You know when people that carpal tunnel is a dangerous thing. You know I had lady, I used to work at this insurance company and this lady had it. And she was kind of heavy and she had real, real chunky forearms. I mean, this lady probably had about 16 pound forearms on each arm. And the biceps were smaller. You don't see that. You know, that's almost like a nocturnal creature. And she had that carpal tunnel and she couldn't do.
Starting point is 00:31:47 She would get this milkshake and she had to like almost lean back, like kind of lean back and land in her chair and then land the milkshake on her shoulder. And then catch that hit out that shape. You know, catch that hit out that sweet milk cup. So because she couldn't, you know, she had them heavy arm. I mean, dude, this lady was, you know, she had, you know, 32 pounds of forearm and carpal tunnel. That means her fingers was all busted out. She had them Riddick bow knuckles, you know. Her fingers was all, you know, not doing well and probably just moving back to Philadelphia.
Starting point is 00:32:24 You know, she had them Bernard Hopkins on her. So, you know, you got to be careful out there. I mean, you got to be careful when you're feeding those people. Don't feed them something heavy. You know, if these are programmers and they're running them keys all day, you know, and they're hitting them. And, dude, programmers, bro, they're not, like, we're regular people. We use ASDF, JKL sim. We use the regular space bars, you know, maybe hit one and two once in a while, maybe look up and see where the other
Starting point is 00:32:50 numbers are and hit one of those. But programmers, they use the outside buttons outside of the middle stuff. I don't even know what that is. That stuff. One of those things, it just is like, that stuff. One of those things that just is like that. What the fuck is that, bro? Like a sideways straight line that just kind of fell over. It's like a tree that fucking fell over but didn't fall
Starting point is 00:33:14 all the way. What is that? They got all kind of shit over there. Little shark faces. They have everything. And that's where those guys operate in that outside realm. In that sphere. You know, they where those guys operate in that outside realm. In that sphere. You know, they out there in that, what do they call that? What the fuck is that word?
Starting point is 00:33:38 I don't know. In that coral reef of computering. So they're out there. But yeah, man, so be careful. Don't give them something heavy. Don't give them that two-pound burger. You'll fucking snap a dude's wrist. You know, that dude's supposed to, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:54 he's supposed to program the next fucking, you know, safari or lion or whatever they got. You know, Guatemalan fuck monkey, whatever the new iOS operating system is going to be. You know, that leopard or whatever, that cheetah, that milf. Dude, wouldn't milf be a good operating system? That thing always wants to fuck. But anyhow, Onward, thanks for calling.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Keep doing your thing, boy. We'll keep supporting you. This past weekendend family loves you Thanks Jesus Man I appreciate that dude And thank you for working hard man You went in there you got your degree You got that culinary
Starting point is 00:34:32 And now you up there working at Apple Next thing you know you're going to hear something At work one day you're going to hear somebody drop a little bit of knowledge That stock tip You know you're going to hear Somebody's going to drop a Maybe a little bit of knowledge. That stock tip. You know, you're going to hear somebody's going to drop a maybe a little USB drive that has the secrets of the
Starting point is 00:34:49 universe on it. And you're going to get that bitch and be like, dang. Pluto is back. They found Pluto. Or you know what I'm saying? Or Chewbacca was just a lesbian. You're going to find out that rare shit that we don't know. Because you're in there. You're working in the realm.
Starting point is 00:35:05 Thanks for listening, Jesus. And thanks for calling. Onward. Let's hear another call. What's up, Theo? Just listening to this week's episode. You asked for comments on monogamy.
Starting point is 00:35:22 You talked a little about your own struggle about if you didn't know if you could stay in a monogamy. You talked a little about your own struggle about if you didn't know if you could stay in a monogamous relationship for long. Yep, that's true. That's a big fear of mine. And I appreciate you calling. Let's hear more. ...for long term.
Starting point is 00:35:37 And I think similarly to other dark arts, like you quit doing coke, which is great. You say you make the decision every day, you know, that I'm not going to drink or drug today. And I think a lot of people in relationships don't do that in concerns to cheating on their partner. I think if you leave it up to circumstance, it's going to happen. When you meet somebody, you can kind of gauge where that new friendship or relationship is going to go. You know, you're right. If you leave it up to circumstance, that's true.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Because circumstance is controlled now. This isn't 20 years ago when circumstance was circumstance. Oh, yeah, somebody might see you singing in the lounge and, you know, they'll give you a record deal that this ain't then you might bump into somebody and next that might not be the case. Now, circumstance is controlled. So, you know, it's like you see you see an ad, could you know you click on an ad for shoes on facebook and next you know you walk outside and there's three models walking through your apartment complex and they all wearing those fucking sneakers and you're like damn this these
Starting point is 00:36:56 bitches are wearing got on my brain hoofs they just they they pick these hoofs right out of my brain that's how it is. There's no circumstance anymore. It's all being advertised. It's being sold to you constantly. And that's the dark arts. And if you don't think Posse is one of them dark arts, come on, man. Come on. You know, they got a buddy of mine back in Louisiana.
Starting point is 00:37:23 And that's what you talk to him. He says, come on. Come on. But, dude, there's no circumstance. Oh, you think that. Oh, look. I love chocolate-covered pear slices. I love those.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Daddy loves them. And they just popped up on my Facebook. It's a blessing. That ain't no blessing. I mean, it's a blessing that you like them. I like them. I love pears. Most underrated fucking fruit out there.
Starting point is 00:37:57 People talking apples. People talking oranges. Bitch, a pear? A soft pear? That thing will jump in your mouth. And fucking sunbathe on your tongue but you ever had pear juice dude pear juice is so good it runs out the side of your fucking face advertise that's advertising to other people come get this saucy sauce other fruits don't do that.
Starting point is 00:38:25 They don't have it like that. A pear knows it's good. It's like I'm going in you and out of you at the same time. That's an uncontrollable flow if you got a good hit of pear. Boy, you leave a couple slices of pear out there outside. You come outside in the morning, you find a couple beautiful babies out there. outside. You come outside in the morning, you find a couple beautiful babies out there. A couple young, you know, legally aged shorties out there lurking. Trying to meet you.
Starting point is 00:38:52 You know? Because they know you got them tasty fruits, papi. Oh, papi got them frutas. Oh, he got them pear slices. Hey, papi, we've been sleeping out here all night, you know? No duerme. Yo necesito más pear. Más pears, boy. Pears in Spanish, what is it?
Starting point is 00:39:20 Oh, es peras. Nosotros necesitamos's peras. Uh, nosotros necesitamos mas peras. That's the thing, boy. A couple slices of pear, that's baby bait. You put that stuff out in the yard, boy. You show up, everything you love is in the fucking front yard. Everybody like a pear. And if you don't like a pear, guess what?
Starting point is 00:39:42 Knock, knock. Who's there? Nobody. Because you don't have any friends. Everybody likes pairs. So you know that. But what was I saying, man? What was I talking about here? Let me get back in here.
Starting point is 00:39:54 Sorry, I'm all over the place. Oh, the staying monogamous. Right? It's not the same anymore. You know, it's all being pushed to you. It's all, the advertising is too strong. And if you don't make that choice every day, you're right. And you know, I don't make it as much as I should. You know, I give in to the temptations where I'm looking at this and next, you know, I'm leaning over to that. masturbation. You know, doing that self-skeet. You know, playing with your own fucking meaty little high-rise. And I had about 13 days sober and then
Starting point is 00:40:31 somebody sent me a link to look at a massage chair. Dude, next thing you know, boy, I'm massaging my own fucking furniture shop, boy. I'm about to, you know, I'm about to jerk an end table out of my wiener. And it just, that's how it happens, that fast. Because the massage chair has sexy stuff on it. So it's just that bait is constantly there. You got to be on guard for your brain. You know what I'm saying? You ever heard of a
Starting point is 00:41:03 Rottweiler? You got to be a Thoughtweiler. You got to keep them thoughts. I'm that Thoughtweiler, baby. You know what I'm saying? If you're trying to send a thought at me, I strike first. And I'll spray a couple hits of Thought Be Gone into the air. And I, you know, steer clear thoughts. I'm that thought wilder because I'm trying to stay savage.
Starting point is 00:41:28 I'm trying to stay on a track that is where I'm headed. You know, cause they got these, they got, they got this deviant, you know, these ladies running around with deviant crotch and they, and whether it's through pornography or, you know, outside sources, whatever. They're trying to get you to swerve this way, swerve that way. Oh, what is that? Oh, is that some, you know, titty in the distance? What is it?
Starting point is 00:41:57 They're trying to get you. You know, these ladies, they'll leave a bra in your yard. And you don't even fucking know them. They'd be driving down the winter just throwing bras out in yards. You know, just braziering up, you know, front side. That's the way it is, man. It's dangerous out there for men. So if you don't get up every day and stand guard, because we're not strong enough, I don't think. I'm not anyway. I don't think. I'm not anyway.
Starting point is 00:42:28 I don't have that thing inside of me right now that is, you know, I'm susceptible. I'm an addict. I'll fall victim to the elements. It's like if it's raining, I'll get wet. If it's raining, I'm the kind of dude that's raining outside. Oh, I can make it to the car without getting wet. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:42:48 No, you can't. It's impossible. Only way you can make it to the car without getting wet is if you were like a half inch wide. And a half inch, you know, also wide the other way. And you were able to run through all those raindrops like Marshall Falk. You can't do that. You know, not in this. I think maybe if you're traveling at the speed of sound or something, your body like compresses and you could do that maybe, but that's crazy. And that's not real. It's not even, I don't know what I'm talking about, But you can't, I mean, this is, we're not, for me, I don't think we,
Starting point is 00:43:27 whatever we put, they put in our head, this is war. This is mental warfare. And you got to have that thought wilder. Because that thought wilder needs to be striking down, just biting biatches down. Oh, here come a biatch that wants something. And here come a batch that wants something. And here come a. Got a group of batches at the end. You got to have that thought wilder. And have him be on the attack.
Starting point is 00:43:58 Because they coming for you. And they don't want you. They want your things. They want your vibe. They want your vibe. They want your soul but not the good parts of your soul. They want the nougat, you know. They want to take all the nougat and run off with a nougat sack. That's why you see thots sometimes running in the distance with a sack of nougat. But they don't want that nut, you know. They don't want that
Starting point is 00:44:24 core. They don't want that nut, you know. They don't want that core. They don't want that you know, they don't want that nuclei. So you got to be careful, man. Let's hear a little more. Let's hear that part again because this is a good part. Onward. When you meet somebody, you can kind of gauge where that new friendship or relationship is going to go. And if you don't nip it in the bud, you're leaving the door open, in which case you're probably going to end up cheating if that person, you know.
Starting point is 00:44:59 Look, that's what they say. You hang out in a barbershop, you're going to get a haircut. You're going to get a haircut. If you hang out in a barbershop, you're going to get a haircut. You're going to get a haircut. If you hang out in a barbershop, you're going to get a haircut. You know when you meet somebody what's going on. You know when you leave the restaurant, you tell your wife you left your keys inside, you run back in and you're flirting at the hostess stand with some girl. You know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:45:28 You know when you meet somebody, when you leave the relationship how it is, you know what can happen. We know. We know we can't lie and then say, oh, it's chance, it's this, it's that. We know. You know that's the possibilities and the consequences. You know it. So you have to be on guard. I think these days, monogamy, that healthy,
Starting point is 00:45:54 unless you have an understanding, unless you're discussing this with your spouse, I think, I don't fucking know, man. I'm not even married, bro. I'm fucking scared of it. So what do I know't fucking know, man. I'm not even married, bro. I'm fucking scared of it. So what do I know? Let's hear more. Entices you to do so.
Starting point is 00:46:10 So I think, bottom line, it's important to make that decision. I'm not going to cheat on my partner. You heard him. That's an adult male right there. Saying when he wakes up in the morning, he lets his thought while are loose. And he knows that that thought while are guarding his grounds gang. Oh yeah. I'm sorry. I don't have a ton of talk about today, guys. You know, sometimes I don't know if I feel like a responsibility to have a bunch of stuff to talk about.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Um, but I'm trying to think, I think I took some notes of some fun stuff I wanted to talk about but I can't find nothing so maybe that's it for now let's take another call here we did have some great calls that came in here we go this is Jay in Denver
Starting point is 00:46:59 I love the podcast man but I gotta let you know I think when you start getting into issues of race you sound a little lost sometimes. Thank you for calling, Jay. I appreciate it. And that's okay, man. How can I share if I don't get lost? Let's hear more.
Starting point is 00:47:17 So specifically, I'm talking about your podcast where you brought up the Kanye stuff. In one breath, you'll say people should never forget their history because you're not going to. And then you talk about your struggles as a poor white man, as someone from the South. And I'm from the South too, man. I'm from Florida. But at the same time, it sounds like you're trying to deny black people their history, just like Kanye was, just like he's trying to rewrite history, talking about slavery as a choice, just like Ben Carson did, talking about slavery as immigration. It's not that he's not allowed to think.
Starting point is 00:47:52 It's not that he's not allowed to think out loud. It's that when people talk shit, you're allowed to call them out on it. Right. That's true. I mean, you're right. I mean, but I feel like, and I appreciate you calling, Jay. Thank you for calling, man. And thanks for bringing this up. You know, I feel like, yeah, you don't want to forget your story. You don't want to forget your struggle. But if at a certain point, if. what's the risk in reframing it? What's the risk in saying, oh, we're not, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:28 if you always want to think of yourself as a slave, and not trying to think of yourself as an immigrant? You know? And I don't know. I mean, you're never going to not take something out of somebody's heart or somebody's brain. But if you repackage it or re, you know, if you rebrand it some, does it, does it make anything easier? I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:54 You know, I'm trying to put myself like into a situation where it's like, you know, like people always thought, you know, would say that I was a redneck. People always thought, would say that I was a redneck. And so what I started to think of myself as is rural. Because I thought that redneck was, I didn't like it. I thought it had a connotation that left me feeling negative in some ways. It left me feeling limited. People would try to put me on a host of shows where it was like redneck something. I said, no, I don't want that job. That's not for me because that's not me. I didn't want to be those things. I tried to rebrand that for me as rural. I'm from a rural place because more people are
Starting point is 00:49:42 from those places. I can relate on a wider level than just a redneck, you know, and just there's nothing wrong with it, but that's not me. But that's not me. So I try to reframe it. It's something for me that's more, it feels more comfortable for me to say to people, you know, that I grew up in a rural area. And maybe that's not, maybe my comparison isn't good. Yeah, it might not be, man. It's, you know, there's, I'm sure there's a lot of faults in it. But I definitely thought
Starting point is 00:50:14 that Kanye's words were taken out of context and that he's just saying, you know, if we continue, if we continue to think of ourselves as this way, is that the best mindset to have out there? That's what I took from it. You know, I didn't think he was saying, let's forget that we were ever slaves. I mean, shit, you can't ever forget that. You know, but at a certain point, a lot of people are about moving forward. What the fuck are we going to do? I can't do anything if somebody was a slave 400 years ago.
Starting point is 00:50:38 I can't do anything if a slave was, people were a slave a thousand years ago. You know, I can't meet somebody from Egypt or somebody from anywhere. Really, everybody's been enslaved. I can't meet somebody and be like, sorry, bucko. I mean, how long back do we get? Does the buck go back?
Starting point is 00:50:54 You know, I don't know. I'm not trying to take away anybody's heritage, take away anybody, any thoughts about it. But let's hear more, though. I want to hear more, man. I appreciate you calling, Jay. I think this is kind of one of those things that comedians lose me with. Sometimes you tell a bad joke,
Starting point is 00:51:09 you get booed. You say some outlandish, stupid bullshit. You get called out on it. Yeah. Yeah. I just don't think, I don't think that it's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I mean, that's why, and I don't listen to the media, dude. I don't let the media determine what I feel. You know, I would go listen to, I, dude. I don't let the media determine what I feel. I would go listen to it. I went and watched Kanye's whole video. I mean, I thought it was a tough place to really have that conversation. I thought the guy came back with him a real with just kind of a
Starting point is 00:51:38 pretty standard conversation right back at him, like this mainstream sort of vibe. But I also thought that the man personalized it, the guy that was rebuttaling with him on TMZ, and that the guy, you know, I thought it was a good conversation. People were sharing what they thought. But yeah, you're right. And people do. They have the right to call bullshit on him. I just didn't like the way that it was immediately that it was bad.
Starting point is 00:52:09 Oh, immediately this is bad. What if it's just his perspective? Well, how about this article? Kanye's perspective on this. Boom. And that's what's happening with Kanye. Kanye put himself in the public eye, probably to sell his new album. And he said some stupid shit.
Starting point is 00:52:26 And black people, white people, conservatives, liberals, young, old, they're calling him out on it. They have every right to do. I love you. I respect you. But I do think you should push yourself. Have on a black guest. Talk to someone who doesn't agree with you.
Starting point is 00:52:40 Shit, talk to me. Kanye doesn't speak for all black people. And neither does Ben Carson, neither do I. So get some perspectives, man. Because I love you. I'm going to keep listening, keep supporting. See ya. Thanks for that, Jay, man. And thanks for the, you know,
Starting point is 00:52:57 being understanding. Yeah, you're right. You know, you're right that we should have some guests on. You know, we'll get diverse. And we'll get some more diverse guests on so we can talk about some we should have some guests on, you know, we'll get diverse and we'll get some more diverse guests on so we can talk about some stuff and have some different perspectives. But at the same time, I can't not have my own perspective, you know, and I know you're not saying to, but you're saying, well, you did say get some perspective. And that is my perspective. You know, I just think, I think people are ready for just new
Starting point is 00:53:24 ways to think because I think some of these old ways to think aren't getting us anywhere. You know, we've had the same racial issues in America for so long. I think some of this shit is just like, let's, you know, is there or is there even any way to move past it unless there's some sort of financial equality? You know, people talk about white privilege all the time and I feel that it's green privilege. You want to put it as green privilege, man. That's what I feel. It's green privilege. You know, a lot of wealthy African Americans
Starting point is 00:53:57 become Republicans. You know, it's green privilege. And how do you make things equal? I don't know how you do it. You know, I don't have an answer. But I don't think anybody's had a fucking answer. I don't believe any of these political parties have. And we shouldn't expect them to.
Starting point is 00:54:17 You know, you'll know when you're out of line. You say something, somebody disagrees with it. You know? Or you'll have a conversation about it. But, you know, I appreciate it. You know, like, you're right. I'm not black. I don't know about what it's like.
Starting point is 00:54:38 But, you know, it's just weird to me that Kanye, it's like, that the media immediately is like, oh, this guy's a bad guy. You know, they'll jump on. It doesn't matter. It's like, oh yeah, this is horrible way to think. Let him, because a lot of people don't feel like that. A lot of people think, hey, let's, is it a horrible way to think? Is it a way to think? You know, but I appreciate you calling for Jay and I appreciate you being supportive if you continue to or not, man. And you're right, we'll try to get some guests on. I've asked a couple of guys.
Starting point is 00:55:12 You know? I've asked a couple of guys and I haven't gotten any yet. But we'll get some and we'll bring this topic up when they come in. This would be a good thing to have and hopefully I'll even play this call again so we can discuss it. Let's go to another call. Here we go. Hey Theo, a good thing to have. And hopefully I'll even play this call again so we can discuss it. Let's go to another call. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Hey, Phil. This is Alex from Boston. So this past weekend, I went up to upstate New York for my sister's graduation. And it was kind of uncomfortable because... Upstate New York. Dude, that's neck-tat country. And my buddy one time, we met some girls at a stoplight. And I was up there at some college doing a college show.
Starting point is 00:55:49 And we met some young ladies at a stoplight, you know. A couple of stoplight beauties. You know, a couple of yellow light shawties. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A couple of yield bunnies. Because that yellow light, you got to yield on that yellow. And we both yielded. And so we stopped at the same time right after that. And we're at the stoplight. We started chatting
Starting point is 00:56:09 with me and a friend of mine. So next thing you know, we end up at this house party. We go inside. My buddy got a beer and somebody at the party got upset that he got that he got a beer and they beat up my friend. And that's pretty much it, man. And that was upstate New York. Oh, and then we all went out to a bar that night. And one of my friends met this young lady and they ended up making love that evening. They took me down to jail for, I was partying basically on school premises and I wasn't supposed to be. I didn't know this house that we were partying at was on this campus where I performed a show at, blah, blah, blah. So next thing you know, I got out of jail at like 6.30 or something and went back to the hotel room where we were all staying at. And the girl that had made love to my buddy also ended up making love to me. And that's, I think women just like that. You know, they like a bad boy. You know, this jail, they like that jailbird.
Starting point is 00:57:16 They like that, they like that jail bunny. You know, they like that jail bunny. And, and that's, that's that, man. And this lady had the darkest bush on her body. Because some girls got that body bush, they still rocking that front bush. And this was upstate New York and anything goes up there. You'll have a woman who'll have a tattoo on the back of her throat up there. They'll have a woman just a huge semi-automatic weapon tattooed across,
Starting point is 00:57:47 just right across her tits. I mean, it's wild. That's neck tat country. You know, that's tetanus shot. Everybody up there stepping on rusty nails and that's tetanus shot country. And this lady, um, this lady, she, you know, she, uh, she ended up making love to me. And she had a real dark bush, man. I'm like, she just dyed it with cold water. You know, like she had just dyed it with the own, you know, like the devil was making ink pens. And they went out of business at the company. And he had a bunch of extra ink.
Starting point is 00:58:18 And she got a hold of some of it. Because maybe her stepbrother broke into the factory. And he got a hold of some and he gave some to her for Christmas because they didn't have much money. And the next thing you know, she was dying her bush with the devil's ink. So that's something that happened up there in upstate New York. But let's hear more, Paul. Sorry, I'm rambling. I used to sit with my parents, and as my sister was graduating,
Starting point is 00:58:39 her boyfriend actually came and sat next to us. So my sister is 19, and her boyfriend is 39 years old. Wow. That 19 and 39, you know, it can happen. My mother was 32 when I was born. My father was 70. So there's 38 year difference. So I can meet a nine month old right now,
Starting point is 00:59:05 you know, and not be interested in a creepy way, but you know, be looking out for the future. And that would be the same, you know, when that nine month old turned 32, that would be the same equivalent of my mother and father.
Starting point is 00:59:19 But let's hear more right here, Paul. So 20 year difference. And this has been going on for a while. Needless to say, my dad was pretty pissed. The dude was trying to make small talk with us the whole time.
Starting point is 00:59:33 It didn't go so hot, man. I just had to sit there and I was just like, come on, man. He's trying to ask me about how I'm doing and all this shit. It's just like, come on. I don't really know what to do about that whole situation. Yeah, if anyone has any suggestions on what I should do here or what I can do, I'd really appreciate it.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Thanks, Paul. I appreciate it, man. You know, that's a good question, man. If there's any listeners out there who think, you know, have some suggestions for Paul, what he should do. His sister's 19. She's dating a 39-year-old. You know, they're sitting at a sporting event and this man, this adult male, is trying to chat him up. Trying to get into his ears with, you know, with thoughts
Starting point is 01:00:16 and ideas and questions. Well, I'll say this, man. The guy could have played fucking, you know, a G'd up kind of role and tried not to speak with you. You know, the guy could have played fucking, you know, a G'd up kind of role and tried not to speak with you. You know, the guy could have played that. The guy, but he's trying to communicate some. I mean, he probably feel like he has to. He probably felt really out of place. You know, it's got to be super awkward.
Starting point is 01:00:39 And what do you do? I think in that point, man, you fuck it. Yeah. I think you got to give that dude cold shoulder. Man, if there's some 39-year-old dude running around with my 19-year-old sister, phew, come on. No, sir. Get out of there.
Starting point is 01:00:54 I just couldn't handle that. Yeah, I say fuck it, man. You know, I'd tell that, honestly, I'd tell that dude to hit the road, but then that could create issues between you and your sister. But you could always tell your sister what you think. You got to do it in a caring way though.
Starting point is 01:01:09 If you do it in a mean way then she might just rebel and continue to date him. Just based on the you know just based on that fuel that you're spitting that gasoline at her. So but that's it you know that's something because you got that man out there he trying to get that naughty naughty. You know he probably out there doing wild stuff with your sister you know and I'm not trying to get you to think about all that but at the same time he out there probably 69 and then doing all of that shit
Starting point is 01:01:35 you know and then they probably laying there and eating starbursts and shit because you know young people usually have candy around so that man he's definitely you know, young people usually have candy around. So that man, he's definitely, you know, he's hanging out by the devil's doorbell, dude. So, you know, I think you cannot let him into the house. That's for damn sure. So I wouldn't be rude about it, but I would go to your sister and just let her know how you feel.
Starting point is 01:02:01 And then after that, you know, you have two choices. You could tell the dude to fucking get to hit the road, or you can just, you know, be supportive of your sister and just be nice to the guy when you can, because you care about your sister and you want to care about what she cares about. But I think that that's out of line. Now, if it's in Hollywood, then fuck, that's okay. In Hollywood, you could do whatever the fuck you want. You know, you can do whatever you want in Hollywood. So let's hear more. Here we go. What's up, Theo Vesey?

That sounds like a fucking movie, dude. It sounds like a movie of some shit that happened at a glue factory. Let's hear more. What happened was, first off, I had to call out of work. Well, first I thought I was going to get some Benadryl and just Let's hear more.

Starting point is 01:04:27 Junctivitis Dalmont. Let's hear more. I'm a grown man. You can't get that shit as a fucking adult. Well, Junctivitis, man, I'll be straight up. That's from, you know, when you put a little bit of downtown in your uptown. That's when you got your booty on your hand or something or somebody's booty on your hand and you put that booty up in your eye. So that's, you know, you don't have to be a damn scientist to know how that shit works bro that's straight up that's that hand eye coordination but also with some booty in there
Starting point is 01:04:55 let's hear more long story short i'm uh washing my hands and I remembered that I touched this lady's vagina that night before. Oh, yeah. Dude, that's a crazy memory. That's one thing I don't remember that I don't forget about drinking and stuff. That's one thing I don't miss is just that surprise memory. It'll be two days later and you're like, damn, I fucked Annie. You just forget about that. You know, anything could happen, you know, when you're out there drinking and on the dust.
Starting point is 01:05:25 Let's hear more. And then rub my eye. So, fuck. Oh. Why, bro? Dude, that's crazy. Why would you touch somebody's vagina and then rub your eye? Your eye, dude.

Starting point is 01:06:08 That mean anywhere from 30 to 70 on the dance floor. So I'm guessing probably 30 to 65. And then you straight up taking that up to your and you hitting yourself in the visuals with that straight up coup sauce, boy.
Starting point is 01:06:23 Come on. Come on. Come on, man. Yeah, man. Yeah, man. Let's hear more. Fuck. Got that, I don't know, that bacteria. Oh, you got that tyria,

Starting point is 01:06:54 But Chad, good luck out there and we'll put that in for our contestant. You can drop any thoughts you have on this episode or any episode, 985-664-9503. Let's hear more. Hey, Pio. This is Derek from San Diego. Calling to ask you a question about masturbating.
Starting point is 01:07:20 Ask away, dude. I only have, I'm probably a black belt in it, or at least a freaking, I could be a light brown belt in it. Let's go. Actually, I want to ask you a question about not masturbating. The last time I tried to not masturbate, I lasted about eight days, and then I couldn't get any work done. Whenever I saw somebody drop something to pick it up, my mind went to that place.
Starting point is 01:07:47 And I could not walk 10 feet without thinking about things I was going to do in my mind that were sexual. Oh, dude, you might be a dang rapiste, bruh. You know, not to get real Spanish, but you might be a dang pervert. Because you can't think about it. Look, man, if you're thinking about it that much and you got to take a vacation, you need to go to the North Pole. You need to go to the North Pole if it even exists. You know, if Eddie Bravo is your travel agent,
Starting point is 01:08:14 you're not going to be able to go everywhere, but you need to go to the North Pole and get into it out there because that's the thing. You got to relax out there and let that north get in your nuts. Because you're too hot. You're too hot, man. Somebody drop something.
Starting point is 01:08:32 Anybody. What if it's, you know, somebody with carpal tunnel. And heavy front arms. And they dropping shit. And next thing you know, you out there trying to fuck them. And they're just, you know, somebody that's just not strong. Come on. You're better than that.
Starting point is 01:08:51 You know, you're better than that. You're better than that. You can, you know, you just, you go, but you got to relax, man. I would take a northern tour sweden uh alaska north pole you know watch cold movies um you know what is a cold movie uh the air up there you know uh put a book in the freezer read it you know do shit that's gonna chill you out because if you're out there trying to fuck after eight days, you're trying to fuck strangers, dude. That's a crime.
Starting point is 01:09:28 That's a crime. Let's hear more. So, I knew I had to take care of business as soon as possible just so I could do my job. What's the longest you've been able to go without masturbating and do you have any problems?
Starting point is 01:10:11 I went about 30 days and my thing is I just get triggered. You know, kind of like without masturbating, and do you have any problems? That's in my neck. That's in my nuts. But I don't see somebody, you know, you know, that's, you know, somebody that's, you know, drop something on the street and want to fuck them just because they, you know, are kind of clumsy. If anything, if I don't want to fuck clumsy people because I want somebody that's handling my dick with care. But but I went 30 days and it felt good. I started to feel alive. My legs felt straighter. What else? My, you know, I was talking to family and friends more. I could hear better.
Starting point is 01:10:37 But we are, if you, we talked about this in the beginning. That we are at war with pornography and masturbation. You want to know what's killing men? It's pornography. I'll say that to the grave. Nobody jerked off this much as us. I mean, back in the day, you was a grandparent at 45. You were a grandparent. You were dead at 47, 48. You know, you died beautiful.
Starting point is 01:11:15 You died a beautiful person with nice hair and nice skin. Now we live to 100, 106. People dying. You can't even tell if they living. You got to get up next to them and touch them Or put a thermometer in them You can't even tell But back in the day We died early because we were grandparents Because you got married, you had to work
Starting point is 01:11:40 You might have died of yellow fever or something You wasn't busting them out here like we are We'll bust them for no reason There's no reason You might have died of yellow fever or something. You wasn't busting them out here like we are. We'll bust them for no reason. There's no reason. We're not sexually attracted. We're just fucking looking at something, reacting, busting. That's what I'm saying, man.
Starting point is 01:11:59 It's catered. Everything's catered for you. Everything is customized right there for you. Everything. It's coming to for you. Everything is customized right there for you. Everything. It's coming to get you. There's no more just, oh, this is a random thing. No. It's coming to get you. And it wants all the seed out of your nuts. And it wants all the money out of your wallet. And it wants you to think the way it wants you to think. It doesn't want you to think outside of the box. It doesn't want you to think outside of the box.
Starting point is 01:12:26 It doesn't want you to. All right. Thank you for calling, though, Derek. I appreciate it. Let's hear another call here. Here we go. Hey, what's up, T.F.? I don't know if you can tell by my voice or not, but I'm definitely a broken man right now.
Starting point is 01:12:46 Oh, man, I'm sorry you're having a tough time, man. Thanks for calling in. You know, it's okay, dude. We all, you know, you're having a tough time today. I'll have a tough time tomorrow. So thank you for taking the first shift. Let's hear more. For a child, the children, whatever you want to say.
Starting point is 01:13:06 My biggest fear in life is showing my parents that I'm not grateful for them. Showing your parents you're not grateful for them. I can empathize with that. Onward. Yeah, that's pretty much it. I don't know how to show my parents I'm grateful for them without spending money that I don't fucking have.
Starting point is 01:13:30 I don't know how to show them. It tears me up inside because my biggest fear is before they die, I didn't have an opportunity to show them that I'm going to be successful. Your biggest fear is that you won't be able to, that you won't be able
Starting point is 01:13:47 to show your parents how much you care about them, that you're grateful for them without spending money that you don't have. And your biggest fear is that before they die, you won't be successful. Dependent on my own, you know, to where they don't have to worry about me. And it just, it kills me. It kills me. And depending on your own. So obviously, it sounds like, or not obviously, but I'm going to assume because this is just a one-way call, and I'm sorry about that.
Starting point is 01:14:15 I appreciate you leaving the voicemail, and thank you for calling and sharing one of your fears, man. fears, man. You know, your parents, here's what I feel like is our responsibility for our parents is to be happy. That's what they want us to be. They want us to be happy. And, you know, I've had days where I've had some money and I've had days where I've had no money. And next week I'll have both of those types of money. And next week I'll have both of those types of days and next month I'll have both of those types of days. And I couldn't fathom if my mother's affections differed depending upon which type of vibe I was riding or which reality I was living. Having money or not having money. It's always been the same, you know, because your mother just wants you to be happy.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Are you happy? Are you okay? How are you feeling? Not how are your finance. I mean, you know, I guess if your parents can offer to help, then they might ask how your finances are. But here's what I'm going to go out on a limb here. I'm going to imagine that, you know, it sounds like you're still, you know, you're still dependent upon your parents some.
Starting point is 01:15:28 And you want them to know that you care. You're probably, you know, it sounds like you're, you know, making some wild choices or not really sure where you are in your path in life yet. And maybe there's pressure from your parents or you feel that they are pressuring you into getting your path in life yet and maybe there's pressure from your parents or you feel that they are pressuring you into getting your path straighter or you don't want to get your path straight right now and you are,
Starting point is 01:15:54 and it makes you feel good to put, to kind of blame them a little. Yeah, it feels good to say, oh, I'm just worried my parents won't feel grateful. I'm worried that I'll never make them happy. Man, you probably make them happy just by being alive. You know? Now, are you telling yourself,
Starting point is 01:16:18 man, they're not happy with me just because that gives you an edge against them? Like that gives you an argument with them, which then lets you justify whatever behaviors you're doing that, uh, that are keeping you from getting your shit together. I've done that. You know, I've held, I've, you know, I've called somebody out, you know, because it gave me something to stand on, even though they weren't really doing shit. And that was all just to mask what, that I wasn't doing shit, you know, that I wasn't pulling my end of the bargain. But no matter which one of those it is or isn't, man, you know,
Starting point is 01:16:57 I feel, I feel for you and I'm sorry that you don't feel good, but you know what you can do, no matter what is going on, you can always apologize, and you can always start to take the next right action, and that right action can be small. It can be big. If you're boozing and getting fucked up every night, it might be hard to keep those things in line. You can sometimes leave a trail of terror in your wake when you're out there partying and not taking care of stuff,
Starting point is 01:17:22 but I bet your only responsibility, as far as I'm concerned, to your parents, is to be happy. when you're out there partying and not taking care of stuff. But I bet your only responsibility, as far as I'm concerned, to you, to your parents, is to be happy. Is to be happy. If you move to fucking Guam and teach yoga, if you do service work, if you make a million, whatever. If your parents' happiness depends upon you making money,
Starting point is 01:17:42 that's on them. If that's the real truth, then that's on them, dude. That's not your, that's on them. If that's the real truth, then that's on them, dude. That's not your, that's not, then that's their problem. You know, you could always go to like Al-Anon group or a 12-step program that could help you kind of figure out some of those feelings and figure out kind of if you're, you know, where you stand in all that.
Starting point is 01:18:02 And if you're blaming them too much or if you're blaming yourself or what, that can kind of help. But if you're just blaming them, man, and just because it gives you a leg to stand on, you know, they're not, you know, they're not going to think you're grateful. Well, do esteemable things, you know.
Starting point is 01:18:21 Esteemable people do esteemable actions. And things can turn around quickly. Things can always turn around quickly. And the biggest misconception I've ever heard is that a leopard never changes its spots. I don't believe that. I believe that you can. But I hope you feel better, brother, and good luck. And you're not alone, man.
Starting point is 01:18:38 Love you, bro. You know, keep it together. Do something good. Take it easy. Chill for the evening. Watch 101 Dalmatians. You seen that movie? It's about a wild lady, but she has. Take it easy. Chill for the evening. Watch 101 Dalmatians. You seen that movie? It's about a wild lady, but she has a lot of dogs.
Starting point is 01:18:49 And so it's crazy because you know she's wild and she's dark, but you know them dogs got all just good hearts in them. And so it's a real juxtaposition type of programming. Let's hear one more call here. Here we go. My name is Nicole. I'm 34. My name is Nicole. I'm 34. My boyfriend is 40.
Starting point is 01:19:08 And he's struggling really hard with alcoholism. And I know you've struggled. Thanks for calling, Nicole. I'm sorry to hear about your boyfriend. Sorry to hear about that. What's up? I've tried everything. Nothing's working. I think your passiveness and your
Starting point is 01:19:31 non-judgmental way of going about things is maybe something, I don't know, new we could try. We've been best friends for 15 years and I finally gave him a chance and he's ruining it so yeah alcoholics will ruin a lot of stuff you know and I hate to say it
Starting point is 01:19:53 there's nothing that you can do you could go to Alcoholics Anonymous you could go to Al-Anon which is different than AA Al-Anon is a program for people that have lived with or had alcoholics affect them in their lives. It teaches you what happens to you when an alcoholic is in your life. Because alcoholics,
Starting point is 01:20:11 a lot of times, will affect everyone around them. And that also is not the exact technical definition of Al-Anon, but that's my own definition. But I'll say this. He's not your responsibility. You're your responsibility. And I don't know how old you are or what's going on, but I think you've got to take responsibility for yourself. You've been friends for 15 years. If he's an alcoholic, he's not going to be able to take care of himself, and he's not going to be able to take care of you.
Starting point is 01:20:45 So I think you need to keep a distance maybe. I think you should keep a distance. You know, sometimes, you know, the good thing about being a friend of an alcoholic is that you have a chance to actually really affect them. And you'll know what's right or not. But you can't expect to, if you're trying to fall in love with an alcoholic or get them to shape and turn your life into a heart shape
Starting point is 01:21:08 I just don't know if that's feasible and I don't think that it's a safe idea. They say when you get into AA you shouldn't even get in a relationship for the first year. I don't know. I'm sorry you're going through that though but I think some of those Al-Anon meetings because super help, they're everywhere. And you can get into one of those and really, really, you know, you could really hopefully find some people that can help you learn and help you feel better. I wish that I knew more. We got a write-in right here. This came in through the this past weekend hotline and you can check that out at theovon.com. And there's podcasts. You just
Starting point is 01:21:45 click on the podcast and there's ways to submit to the podcast. Here's what this person said. I'm hitting the hotline with something from deep down in all the feelers. Here's the deal. I'm a 31-year-old secret. At the time I was conceived, my gay mother was doing coke with my birth father. She wanted a kid. He was married with kids already, but my mother promised him that I'd be kept a secret. 31 years later, still a secret. Would you seek these people out if you were me? Would you let the cat out of the bag to potentially meet your real brothers and sisters?
Starting point is 01:22:18 Look forward to hearing your input, my friend. Thanks for the laughs and that beautiful head of gender-neutral hair. Dustin. Thanks for checking in, Dustin. You know, you were conceived by a gay mother and a father on cocaine. Boy, I bet you were probably born in about maybe eight weeks, huh? 31 years later, you're still a secret. So you have very little family on your mom's side, but you have five siblings who aren't aware of your existence due to the secret on your father's
Starting point is 01:22:44 side. What would I do? I don't know. You know, I don't know what I would do, man. I think I would try to find out, would you be reaching out for them? Are you reaching out to, you know, to have drama in your life? Are you reaching out to spill the apple cart? Are you reaching out because you actually want them to know? You know, I would try to get it, what's the real reason you're doing it? I would ask yourself the real reason. I mean, you can always be patient.
Starting point is 01:23:18 You know, you can never ask them too soon or you can never tell them too soon. So you could always wait and do it, you know, when you know for sure. One of my problems is I overreact and I'll do things really quick that I should wait and take time to do. But this is a good question. If people have some thoughts, they can hit in on this. They can hit in on this and drop their comments or questions to 985-664-9503. We're going to get to one more write-in. Also, this episode is always brought to you by The Ridge.

Starting point is 01:23:53 And it's a beautiful front carry, and I have one in my pocket right now. It took about five days to get used to, and I love it. One more time, I'm going to tell you guys about cannabis. My West Coast Buds is a new podcast. Go check them out. It's an inside look at cannabis, comedy, coffee, and spirits. And the host is Joe Demio. And we'll put a link in below for that.
Starting point is 01:24:19 What else? Oh, we had one more text comment that came in. Hi, Theo. My name is Christine. I'm 24, and I'm from Long Island that came in. Hi, Theo. My name is Christine. I'm 24 and I'm from Long Island, New York. Shout out, New York. Can't even get mugged in Manhattan over there. Too many rich people.
Starting point is 01:24:33 You got to go out to Queens to really still get fucked up, I think. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate and admire you for creating a space for yourself and others to just be real. I love your comedy. You're also the only man I know that can make a mullet sexy. And that's sweet of you to say. And I don't know if this is a mullet, but I know it's something wild. And your accent too. I mean, God damn.
Starting point is 01:24:55 But moving onward. Yesterday's episode of TPW really hit me in the heart in the best way possible. Your call with Mickey was what a lot of us needed to hear. I was all up in my feels. Sometimes I get so caught up in the mundane routine of everyday life that I forget to look around me and see how blessed I truly am. So thank you so much for being you. I just can't wait for you to come to New York and I hope to have a conversation with you one day. Stay fly, bruh. Christina. Man, she sounds fine. You know, Mickey's conversation did that for me too.
Starting point is 01:25:27 You know, and that's what all this does. You know, because I'm a last minute learner. Something is I have to learn at the last minute and I have to learn over and over again. You know, you can remind me to be a good person right now and I can do it for 20 minutes and then my brain fucking shifts gears. Or it wants to shift out. And so I have to be constantly reminded. So I appreciate you guys, you know, constantly reminding me to think about different things. You know, we had some good stuff today.
Starting point is 01:25:52 Jesus, the line cook. I'm thinking about my boy out there fucking juggling waffles and fucking, you know, maybe got a couple of hits of shrimp in his jaw. And he's grilling up grilled cheeses and fucking, you know, just slamming it down. You know, these programmers just fucking stuffing it right up in their iTunes holes, just fucking putting it right in that dirty browser spot. You know, I'm thinking about my mom, about my boy, Derek, who's eight days off that bus bust. You know, he's laying off that masturbation. I'm thinking about Jay, who called in and he's making me think now about my thoughts on Kanye. And do I have some racial perspective issues?
Starting point is 01:26:33 I know that I probably do. So good. So now I'm going to have to discuss when I see a black friend or see a friend that's different than me later. Has a different view than me. Then I'm going to have to talk about it with them. You know, we got Paul, whose sister's dating that 19 on that 39. Look, I'd shut it down, bro.
Starting point is 01:26:55 Yeah, man. So this is what this is all about. And I appreciate you, Christine, for hitting us up on that write-in. What else? I think that's pretty much it. I just want to thank you guys for paying attention and being here with us. I got to run. We got this, you know, we have that special for Mitzi Shore tonight at the Comedy Store.
Starting point is 01:27:16 I'm going to do the Jim and Sam podcast. You can check me on there, Jim Norton. And what else, man? I'm feeling kind of antsy and stuff, but I'm trying my best. You know, some of these episodes are fast and some of them are slow. And I'm just learning as I go. You know, life's crazy. You know, life's tough. It just keeps happening. And it's so hard sometimes to get a hold on it.
Starting point is 01:27:46 And before, this is one thing about me being in AA, before I got in Alcoholics Anonymous or, you know, went to those meetings and stuff. And I don't know if I'll always be in. I don't know. But before I got in, I was always trying to control every moment of life. And I was just, you know, I was always trying to control everything and it was fucking
Starting point is 01:28:07 just exhausting. And I never could control anything. You know, and I thought I was, you know, I thought the world just revolved around me.
Starting point is 01:28:17 And there are moments where that still flares up. So I got to keep tabs, you know, and I got to try and check myself here and there. You know, because our egos can be dangerous.
Starting point is 01:28:29 And the way that I find myself out of my ego sometimes is by trying to engage with other people, help others, find a way to be supportive, call friends, make a gratitude list. Did I wake up? Make 10 things that I'm gracious for, that I'm grateful for. Anything could be from the air in your lungs to your working cup, to your working fingers, phalanges, whatever. It could be anything to your friend. And I'll put a reason why, you know, I'm grateful for Alan because he lent me his overalls and they kept me warm. So then in my brain, it's like I have what I'm grateful for and I have a reason why. And that always makes me feel more connected and makes me think out of myself.
Starting point is 01:29:15 But every day is a struggle, man. And that's life. We're out here to struggle. How are you going to hold your struggle? That's why sometimes I see real rich people and I feel bad for them. Because you don't have what I got. They don't have maybe what you have. They don't have that struggle.
Starting point is 01:29:40 They never had any struggle. Maybe they struggle for the things that we feel filled with sometimes. You know, I think it's all cyclical, man. Somebody has the money, but they don't have any feelings. Somebody has all the feelings, but they don't have the money. Somebody's got the looks, but they don't have any heart. Or not any, but it's an equation. You might have eight of one and two of the other
Starting point is 01:30:05 or five of one and five of the other. Nobody's got all tens. And I try and remember that, you know, because that helps keep me out of jealousy. You know, I try and remember that I'm a work in progress. I'll be a work in progress when I lay down in that coffin. You know, when I fucking drop a work in progress when I lay down in that coffin. You know? When I fucking drop my jaw
Starting point is 01:30:28 in that mahogany, I'll be still a work in progress. But I'm grateful for you guys being here with me today and just listening to me rambling stuff. We only got so many calls in today. We'll try to do more in the future. I know it was what it was
Starting point is 01:30:44 and it is what it is and if it's on it's on but I'm just grateful you guys are here with me today I'm trying to get some exciting guests trying to get a lady in trying to get a Guatemalan trying to get everybody
Starting point is 01:30:59 so we're going to try to do everything it's a work in progress, but I appreciate you guys being here. I appreciate the support on Patreon. I'll be putting some out for you guys this week. And just everywhere, you know, just everywhere.
Starting point is 01:31:16 Got some neat stuff popping. You guys be good to yourselves. You know, just cause I mean, you probably deserve it. You know, that's what I'm, you probably deserve it, you know? That's what I'm thinking. I mean, what do I know? Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jonathan Kite, and welcome to Kite Club,
Starting point is 01:32:23 a podcast where I'll be sharing thoughts on things like current events, stand-up stories, and seven ways to pleasure your partner. The answer may shock you. Sometimes I'll interview my friends. Sometimes I won't. And as always, I'll be joined by the voices in my head. You have three new voice messages. A lot of people are talking about Kite Club.
Starting point is 01:32:45 I've been talking about Kite Club for so long. Longer than anybody else. So great. Hi, sweetheart. Here's the deal. Anyone who doesn't listen to Kite Club is a dodgy bloody wanker. Do you know what I mean? I'll take a quarter pounder with cheese and a McFlurry. Sorry, sir, but our ice cream machine is broken.
Starting point is 01:33:01 Oh, no! I think Tom Hanks just butt dialed me. Anyway, first rule of Kite Club is tell everyone about Kite Club. Second rule of Kite Club is tell everyone about Kite Club. Third rule, like and subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts or watch us on YouTube, yeah? And yes, don't worry, my Brad Pitt impression will get better.
