I mean, just like, I mean, in a special type of human, almost like a, you know, as if they had some dark arts, but the Lord gift wrapped them, you know? It's almost like the devil and the Lord just cleared their throat at the same time and just spit something right here into our studio.

Yeah. It's one of the music gods. When they give it to you like that, you just got to take it and just run with it. Do you find that there's a certain time of the day or year or anything like that? And there's a water for you right there if you want it. Thank you. Do you find that there's a certain time of day that you feel those compulsions or those? You know what?

There's no time, no exact time, because it comes at random hours. It'll be four in the morning, I'm sitting in bed, I'm like, I hear a little something in my head, I go, I gotta get up and go put that down. Because if I don't, it just goes into the ether, gone. And then I'm like, damn, what could that have been? Wow.

When I do force myself to do it, and sometimes it is forcing yourself to do it, because you gotta work it. Yeah. And you do it, and then it is forcing yourself to do it because it's like you've got to work it. Yeah. And you do it, and then it's like, wow, I'm really glad I did that. Yeah. But for that particular song, I remember sitting, it happened like, boom. I had this little riff.

And then the lyrics just came out. A man could be higher than a mountain. It just really just came out. And I wrote it all down on paper within 30 minutes, and the song was done. Yeah, it's a hit, man. Thank you, bro. And so whenever, like, how did you get into the tunes, man?

How did you get into tuning? My stepdad played a lot of music growing up. You know, 12, 13, I was breaking the strings. He'd be coming in, whooping me. Yeah, was he a decent man? He was. You know what? I didn't understand at the time.

He was very strict, very disciplined, disciplined to the max. Scary. Wow, yeah. Plus he was Guatemalan, and that didn't help. Yeah, Guatemalan, dude. It's a fruit, too, if you have a lisp. Guatemalan, right? Yeah, he was very musical, though, so I'm very thankful for that.

He had keyboards all around. I was always just trying to pick up what I could. So that's really how you got into music. It was basically because of your step that had these elements around. Totally. Very much so. He was there, and we'd lock them all up in a room. And I'd sneak out, and I'd go into the room,

and I'd have to lock that door up. But I eventually figured out a little trick. I put a belt on a coat hanger, and I'd latch into the room and I'd have to lock that door up. But I eventually figured out a little trick. I put a belt on a coat hanger and I'd latch it underneath the door and get it just right where I'd hear it and I'd pull it down and the door would lock and I'd be out the other side. And he figured out my trick later on.

He wanted to whoop me, but he's like, it's pretty smart that you figured that out. So he had to respect it a little, huh? With music, what's your journey been like with music? Did you start here in Los Angeles? Did you come here to Los Angeles? My real dad was like a playboy. He was out here working for Orion Pictures, doing

the whole thing, single bachelor man. And I came out here on the Christmas vacations in summer, and I loved the air out here. I felt something was different about this place. And I want the air out here. I felt something was different about this place, you know? Ah. And I'd want to be out here.

And he'd be like, hey, what's your stepdad doing? Is he still whooping you? I'll come in there and whoop him. Like, he would be like that. He actually flew to Texas one time. Really? He was pulling your ear. He goes, step outside, Steve.

And all I hear is like a cartoon. And he walked out. He goes, come on, let's go to the park, Steve. My real dad's Italian. Crazy dude, man. So you had the Italians and the Guatemalans going at it. Yeah, totally, man. Wow, man.

Your mom likes to fuck abroad, huh? Yeah, and they both have the same birthday. No. November, yeah. Both hardcore Scorpios. Dang. Crazy, right? So what does that tell you about your mom when you look at her partners?

My mom's a crazy fire, too. She's an Aries. And she's just like, I don't know if that's fire but she's very um she's like her mom a lot she's aries same same kind of vibe i feel it yeah it's like you know it's a certain certain energy you know but they want to be left alone but they also want to do a lot on their own they got a young mind but they're also very very smart about things it's like it's interesting but i love my mom i talk to her you know yeah i don't call her all the time, but I wish I would. Yeah? I don't call anybody all the time.

I spend a lot of time on myself. Huh. Solitude. And so when you got out here, so your father, your real father was living out here. Yeah. So you came to visit him. I did. And then at what point did you kind of make that move, that full move out here?

When I was 17, I got kicked out of my place in Texas. So then you had to come out here. Yeah. So my dad goes, all right, you come with me. And I spent a week on my dad's couch. He booted me. Kicked me out there, too. For what?

Because I rode my bike, and I snuck out of the house. And he's like, you want to go out with them? You want to go outside? Go out with them now. And he took my bike, brought it downstairs. He goes, now you go with them. Wow. And I had nowhere to go.

And I was like, call him. Dad, please, can I come home? And a week into it, no, he's like, a week later, he's like, all right, come on, Steve. Wow, a week he made you stay out. Yeah, a week I was out there, bro. And I was running with these freaks, belly dancers in Venice going nuts on rooftops. I'm like, I love this. People playing bongos going, baka, baka, baka. I'm like, this is awesome.

But two days later, you start getting hungry, you know what I mean? Yeah. You wonder where am I going to go? Where am I going to sleep tonight? That roof is kind of But two days later, you start getting hungry. You know what I mean? Yeah. You wonder, where am I going to go? Where am I going to sleep tonight? That roof is kind of getting a little weird, you know? Yeah. So then you had to get back home. Yeah, man.

You know? And then when did the... So now you had these musical elements. You're living with your dad out here. Yeah. And then what happens? You know, I just found that this is what I want to really do. I got to put my best foot forward and really just stay on the grind and just take it seriously.

And did that happen or did it not happen? Well, I took it seriously. I've got my music in a lot of movies and stuff, and I've made money on my music. I still do. That's how I make my money. So I support myself. And so I buckled down somewhat to at least get that into a position

where I can sustain some life energy out of it. Yeah. And whenever, like, so, but take me, so when did Stevie Starlight start? That happened when I had a, my real last name was Natali. Like my dad, it's his last name, and it's Christmas. They call me Stevie Christmas, but that's in the past. And my grandfather's name was Nick, so he was St. Nick Natali. Christmas.

Wow. How about that, right? So yeah, so basically I was in this band called the Stevie Natale Band. And this is when all that Iraq war was going on, and people thought I was Stevie and the Tally Band. And that had to change real quick. So my drummer, I broke down on my car. I had this 57 Mercedes Benz, right? And I'm driving my car.

I had no headlights, no dome lights, no rear lights, no brake lights, no nothing. I love that. The fuse went out. That's the dark arts on wheels, bro. I'm like, I'm going to make it home. This guy, Jimmy, he's a beautiful guy. Still talked to him this day. Long hair, Italian dude.

A glass blower. Has a shop right up the street. He goes, you can make it home. He's like, dude, you're like Stevie Starlight. And he put that name on me. And it created's like, dude, you're like Stevie Starlight. And he put that name on me, and it created a monster, and it turned everything into Stevie Starlight. Much to his dismay at the time, because he didn't really like that, but he just supports whatever I do.

He's a good guy. So at that point, Stevie Starlight was born. Born that day, that night. And did you take it on as like a persona, or was it just a stage thing? You know what? That's a good question. I took it on because I felt I can do more and step out of my box, because you have some other name to run with. Yeah, you're someone new.

Yeah, and now I'm getting to a point where I want to maybe transmogrify into another element, you know? Like? Maybe just who I really am, Steven Natale. Oh. You know? So you might back out of the starlight. I might be a little, you know, a little too tutti-frutti for some people.

You know what I'm saying? Don't leave me hanging on cam. No, I won't. I'm sorry I didn't see you. No, it's okay. I never would. No, I know you wouldn't. Bring it back.

Beautiful. There we go. Yeah. So I want to know, like, with music, because because now was it a, did you feel, because a lot of people move to Los Angeles and music is like their dream, right? Or music is, they have this goal that they have to achieve. And if they don't get there and they really equate a lot of who they are to, I think, levels of success.

How has that honestly looked for you in your life? Well, you know what? That's a good question, too. I think about that a lot, but I'm not too hard on myself. I don't beat myself up on it because I know I have a certain path, and that's ultimately going to take place. And whatever happens in that time is good, and this is the way that god wants me to do this and i'm gonna do it yeah and i don't beat myself up too much good for you man that's nice

that's a nice gift to have is to not beat yourself up i do those sometimes because you know i can be my own worst critic as well and i might not crack that whip like on an eight to five on myself because i'll be up at five in the morning making music and I'll still do it. Right. But sometimes I wish I did have that. A little bit more of that other side that keeps you more in tune. Yeah, a little bit sometimes. Yeah. It's a give and take, you know? Right, it is a give and take.

It's such a give and take, man, because it's like, you know, we were just talking a little bit ago about having to do, you know, podcasting, it kind of takes away from being able to do stand-up comedy sometimes it's like it's uh you know it it's still awesome and it's still a neat thing to do and it's like a fun way to communicate with people but you know it'll come like you know i'll have some sets in the evening and then i'll be finally be sitting down at like you know 8 30 uh to start thinking about jokes and ironing that out. And so it's really tough. And it's tough when you're a creative type of person, which I'm not ordaining myself a creative type of person,

but I mean, I couldn't run a fucking, you know, like there's a million things I couldn't do, but I can sit in a chair and think up ideas. Good, yeah, you can. But when you're a creative type of person, it's tough to have that other side. I know. It's tough to also be your own boss.

Yeah. It's like I'm my own boss, and I'm also the worst employee. Yeah, but he helps you out on some stuff, right? Yeah, you know, Chris definitely helps out. I mean, I have big help from Chris and Nick. That helps a lot. Nick's nice. Yeah, Nick's nice.

He's a cool guy. Yeah, he's a super guy. He was a premature baby. Was he? Yeah, he was. I couldn't tell. Yeah, if you get to know him a little bit, comes in just about a month shy you're funny but uh he's like an eighth month you know he's like an eight month old forever okay but a beautiful young man yeah

um but yeah so how so were there parts so you didn't really attach your you didn't attach kind of like material success or Hollywood success to your happiness. No, no. Basically, I knew I was going to make it, so it didn't matter. Right. Maybe that's going to be when I'm 50, but I know that it's all, you go through the journey. Like, I put the script on that when I said, enjoy the destination, because we're already there. You know what I mean?

You're already there. Enjoy now. Right. You know, enjoy the destination, because, you know, people say enjoy the journey. This is the journey, the destination. You're already here. Right. You're already at your destination. Because, you know, people say enjoy the journey. This is the journey, the destination. You're already here. Right. You're already at your destination.

It's right now. It's right now. You know? It's just like a, yeah, it's almost like a, just a way of reframing the present. So when you got to breathe and just wake up and be thankful for your breath and just whatever happens throughout the day, you know, you're going to be happy for it. Yeah. You know, you're alive.

You know, that's great. Man, it's amazing to stay in that place of gratitude um yeah you know i'm thinking as you say like you know the journey and the destination i'll start to realize a little bit like as you know as little things will happen as i go along in life maybe i'll you know get to work on stage with somebody that i really admire or like somebody that was like a hero of mine growing up as a comedian I'll hear them at like a show of mine maybe in the back I can have a distinct laugh yeah this is like four years ago they had this guy named Damon Wayans who used to be on In Living Color yeah I'm very familiar with him yeah and he I heard him in the back he was in

the back of what at a show I was at he was performing next but I heard him laugh wow because he has a very distinct laugh and I sure. And I was like, wow. I was like, that's crazy. You're on stage and hearing that? And it's the only laugh I could hear. It just suddenly just rung out. It's like a little Christmas bell. Good for you, man.

And then, so you have little moments that kind of excite you and keep you fired up. And they'll boost you for a few months. Yes. You know, sustain you. Yeah. You're on your own again, man. You got to figure this out, man.

But then you're back to just, yeah, you're back on your own. But I'm starting to realize that it's the parts in between those where you're battling it out or you were staying with the path. Big time. And that's a lot of that. Those are really the funnest parts. Those are really the most, it's the challenge. It is. Challenge for sure.

Yes. It is that journey that is the, that's where you learn about yourself. Yes. You don't really learn about yourself in the moments that are like, oh, when you're on stage playing, that's not when you learn about yourself. You don't learn when you're talking so much. You're learning when you're listening in life. So those moments when you're looking for things and you're listening, you're peeping out things, you're trying to attain some inspiration,

that's when you're learning. Yeah. Yeah, it's so funny. I don't even know what I'm saying. I believe you, though. It's like say you're driving somewhere, but you don't learn when you're on stage when you're playing the music as much. You learn when you're off stage, and then it comes out. I go into another element sometimes.

I don't even know I'm there and I'll just transcend into a thing where I can just feel free. I'm not even trying to do that. Sometimes I'll be very focused and understand what's going on at the moment. But when I find I'm going to a solo or something, I just let loose. I couldn't even tell you what I'm thinking then, man.

I really couldn't. They put my stuff onto a brainwave and ask, what are you thinking right now? I don't know what they would find in that thing. Really. And so, your whole time here in L.A., have you lived in Venice? Have you lived... I've gone all around, man. I've been through Eagle Rock, East L.A., down to Malibu.

I've been in Venice most of the time. Yeah. Santa Monica, of course. Venice has changed, huh? Big time. Big time. What's happening in Venice most of the time Santa Monica of course Venice has changed huh? Big time What's happening in Venice man? I'm looking at this nice painting here of Venice I know the guy that actually painted the whole

Of that building right there Behind that Mercedes All that stuff He's an amazing mural artist Oh yeah is that where that That's where the bar is right there Danny's And across the street is Larry's

But Venice has changed A lot of the good people are still there All the bar is right there, Danny's. And across the street is Larry's. But Venice has changed. A lot of the good people are still there. All the OGs are there. All the Venice crew is there that I know. I still go back there all the time and say what's up. A lot of good people love me still there, and I love them. But as far as the dynamic of all the stores moving in there and Snapchat and all that stuff, people got a little perturbed with that i guess they they bailed out of their google's their snapchat vice a bunch of

stuff that were over there they just feel you know impeded on because that's just you know it's a really hardcore town venice yeah don't you think yeah well i'm fascinated by it because i just know it from like an outsider's perspective right so but yeah yeah, I mean, it has this, it's like where saltwater kind of met grunge a little bit or met, I don't know. You tell me about it. What was it like and what is it like? When I was five years old, my dad was living out there. And I went there, I was at the beach, I felt something in the air. And ever since then that that feeling

has never left me it's always the same when i go back there if i go there today i'll feel that same feeling when i was five you were just talking about this the other day smells and certain things can bring you back to something yeah and um man just right right when i go there i feel it and i'm sure people do wherever they're from they can go back to that place and feel that feeling that's really beautiful but um But Venice is a special place. Yeah. It'll always be. And times will change and people will come and go.

But that energy will always be there. Yeah. I think. Do you feel like, I mean, you know, a lot of times I notice that things get changed by, you know, when money moves in, you know? When money moves in or when things become it's crazy it's like when we start to put i don't know if it's appreciation on something or value on something or when something's cool it's hard to keep it cool yeah yeah you know talking about things moving in like that and i did some reading on some things.

That's actually a good thing because young money comes in and old money moves out. It's a way of recycling things. And that needs to happen, actually, in life. It's going to happen no matter what. They care about it anyways. But some people get a little attached. They feel like it's their home or whatever. But you know what?

Sometimes it's the way it is, man. It has to happen that way. That's interesting. Yeah. It's like a lot of that maybe then is just about attachment. It's like we get attached to the way a street was. Yeah. Or to a family or to what we like to see when we look outdoors.

We like to see that and then we get attached to it. And when that changes, that kind of scares us. Yeah, for sure. It's interesting how Venice is such a, I don't want to say it's like a, it's almost like this bottleneck of art and dreams. Yes. I still see those people out there like living on the beach you know yeah just out there on those little um bungalows or not bungalows but uh those things cabana cabana type things that are called all along the beach um not bungalows are they campers

no they're not campers they're just like this little um bodega no not bodegas yeah something like that i don't know yeah losing my mind right now what are pagodas i don't know begonias are flowers you know what i'm talking about padau bodega pagoda no like those things where they all hang out and there's this little um a bodega maybe yeah yeah they're all still there man they're just drinking in the day and they're just like getting by but i'm like wow what do you what do you want to do you know what you want to do maybe this is what they want to do? Maybe this is what they want to do. Yeah. Maybe this is what they're into.

What's a lot like, do you feel like, so a place like Venice, and you say it's still the same sum, but other people have moved in and things have to change and that's the way it goes. So do you feel like that a lot of people, want to be so free but then yet we get so attached yeah they want to be free but some people were born there you know some of those people that were born there those are the ones i'm talking about have a real like connection with it and kind of like mad people are stepping in there yeah they kind of need to get over that in a way because like they're always going to be there nobody's going to tell them to leave oh that's

a good point it's like no one's going to tell them to leave but um people are always going to be there nobody's going to tell them to leave oh that's a good point it's like no one's going to tell them to leave but um people are always want to come to venice like it's it's like millions of people every year come there yeah more you know it's pretty fascinating it is it's a nice place though it's gave me a lot of inspiration helped me write a lot of songs and i spent a lot of time there in my life and hopefully i'll spend a lot more time there too yeah you have any children or no no none yet how are you no shooting stars huh you're no children yet man it could happen one day we'll see you know i've been saving some a little bit of semen at the house bro yeah yeah i got some frozen yeah do you my buddy said you can just freeze it yourself oh so yeah yeah why not make so much it, I might as well put some away, right? Jeez. Spraying, man.

It's like I'm just burning. Yeah. I'm burning this dick at both ends. I might as well save a batch or two, you know? Mm-hmm. So we wanted to have you come on, man. I mean, we appreciate you letting us use your song. Yeah, man.

That was for you guys. And it's fun, man. And I typed that in. I'm like, hope you like it, man. You call me back. Boom. This is a banger. I can't wait to put it on.

I'm like, oh, thanks, Theo. oh thanks theo yeah dude it's just so good it's such a uplifting hit and we would like to do an album uh and comprise like different you know maybe 10 different songs over about after another year yeah and then put them out you got my blessing on that i appreciate that and we'll do um yeah we'll probably just do like a profit share where half the profits go to the artist and half of maybe we'll find a sure. And we'll do, yeah, we'll probably just do like a profit share where half the profits go to the artisan and half of it maybe we'll find a charity or something.

That's cool. We'll think of something cool. Yeah, whatever you guys want, man. I'm with you guys all the way, dude. I love your attitude,

though, of just not holding too tightly on the stuff. You know what? I have another side of me, too. Like, I need help and work on.

Right. There's things that I get hyper-sensitive on I need to work on as well. Yeah. I'm in no way by a perfect person, but I do appreciate you saying that. You know, I do try to be as positive as possible. Yeah.

Yeah, it is tough. It's tough these days because you do want to, you know, and I find it even in here working on the podcast. Like, oh, you know, we have such a good game plan and we have a good goal. And then sometimes, but then there's certainly edgy and feisty moments along the way yeah and i watch all your stuff too man oh yeah you know as a big fan before we even got in contact and i was watching you and i showed britney a bunch of your stuff she's hilarious oh thanks dude you know and i mean to say why isn't this guy global and i'm like dude he is global everybody every world knows about this guy. And then I remember

you were a little down yourself for not being accepted into the Jimmy Fallon thing. You know how that whole thing's changed, man. I watch the people that are on there right now.

I almost throw up, dude. I'm so sorry, dude, because you were so deserving of that. Thanks, man. Yeah, man. Yeah, a lot of me, some stuff has just

gotten so boring. Yeah. And they say, some people say they're so accepting, but it's only accepting in a weird way and there's politics involved i don't even know if we should go into that right now but no we don't have to but it's i know what it is though man i know what it is it's really weird

i think just a lot of people are disconnected i think there's just some different perspectives you know and people aren't seeing the same world true you know people are't seeing the same world True People are just seeing the different worlds So outside of music What other loves have you had in your life? You know what? I love a lot of things I like a lot of artistry stuff I like to act lately

I've been doing some of that I've been doing some stuff Some commercials and stuff That's cool, I could see that, man. You definitely seem like kind of like a bit of a flamingo, man. And it's not even something I wanted to do. I kind of got pushed into it, like helping this one person. Then from there, I got a commercial agent.

From there, I did like three commercials, dude. That's cool. I don't even really know what I'm doing. I'm just having fun with it. Yeah. You know, just being in the moment, trying to figure it out. What are things you do to stay in the moment? You know seems to be like kind of a thing well i have severe attention deficit hyperactive disorder to the max in high definition dude so i'm trying to take it back 4k just to be here and just to kind of um

be in the moment with you yeah but i uh man all the time the day flies by dude so fast. My mind just races and races and races. I got to take a few steps. Meditation helps a little bit. Yeah. I'm not that good at it. I just try to just breathe and just like relax.

Diet helps, you know, just kind of like what you eat and whatnot, what times you eat. But I have severe ADD. I can't even read a whole paragraph or something. I forget what I just read. Damn, bro. That happens to me sometimes too It's just very frustrating sometimes Okay so when you get to that point of like

Like what do you think happens Because I notice this too I'll be reading a paragraph And then halfway through I'll start thinking about something else You might have a little bit of it But I won't even notice where I left Yep

The story I was reading I won't even notice where I left the story I was reading. I won't even notice where I left that and went into my own story that's going on in my head. You might have some of it. It's not a bad thing. It's an artist thing. Yeah. Very creative thing. You should embrace it.

What do you think it is? Why do you think it happens? I know there's all these scientific reasons, but what do you think is going on that we would just drift off because you know we're reading something yeah and we said exactly we had intention to read it yeah of course you want to read it basically it's chemicals in your brain dude that are that are not that are not formulating to so you can attain focus is the problem and you have so much going on your mind maybe that's not as important to you as what you're trying to think about right now do you think it's any of its ego like we think that what we're going to create in our head is better than what is already here i don't think i don't think it's like that it's in the moment like more than a moment it's just like

a matter of what you're doing in the moment like um you it's chemicals in the brain is all i don't even know what that's what they've been telling me about chemicals in the brain chemicals in the brain. I don't even know what. That's what they've been telling me all about. Chemicals in the brain. Chemicals in the brain. They're telling us this. I don't even know what it means, but that's what they told me as I'm trying to pass it along. I have no idea, but I read something all the time. I don't remember what the fuck I just read, dude.

I don't know what I just read. And I don't feel dumb because I know I'm a smart person, but I'll go back and read it again. I'll get it. Yeah. That's how it is. person but i i'll go back and read it again i'll get it yeah what do you do you notice that that has gotten better or worse over time and not even having to do with with the with uh attention deficit issues but with just the way that we've evolved as people and how you see just in your own life do you see any do you see that it's harder i don't know if the um the um problem

has gotten worse or better but i know that I've gotten better as a person. I've evolved because I've learned more and I'm more advanced with my way of thinking. So that helps it. Right. So who you are now, you're able to at least regroup and read it over again or reexamine it or take a moment and then re-approach it. Yeah, it was before I was frustrated and I wouldn't understand. But now that I'm matured, I understand what's going on here. And I think that my level of comprehension has gotten better, yeah. Do you think, but say if you were to read a book when you were 20 and you read a book

when you're 40, do you feel like one is easier than the other? For me, 40 is much harder to read a book. But you're not 40 yet, are you? No, but I'm 38. So you're right. We were born in 1980, both of us. Oh, really? We're both monkeys.

Okay, cool, man. We're both from the South. I'm from Houston. Are you really? Yeah, I was born in Houston. Wow. Yeah, I made my way up to New Orleans a couple times. Oh, that's cool, man.

Louisiana, anyways, yeah. What took you there? Just partying. People on little party buses and whatnot. We're going into New Orleans for couple times. Oh, that's cool, man. Louisiana, anyways, yeah. What took you there? Just partying. People on little party buses and whatnot. We're going to New Orleans for the weekend. You want to come? Sure. I'm 14.

I'll go have a party with you guys. Dang. Yeah, I was out there. It was the wildest time I've ever had in my life, right down there, too. Oh, yeah? Oh, yeah. You know, down there, man. That's fiasco country.

You get into some real fiasco. Yeah, you see beads out there all year long, and it's like Mardi Gras, you know? Oh, yeah. One lady, one time, had a bunch of beads in her pussy. Oh fiasco. Yeah, you see beads out there all year long, and it's like Mardi Gras, you know? Oh, yeah. One lady one time had a bunch of beads in her pussy. Oh, my God. Yeah. Wow. And I was like, what?

And what, was she just fanning them out or what? Yeah, she just pulled them out for everybody. Wow. And nobody wanted them. God, that's terrible. Yeah. That's too much. It's like, yeah, lady.

Oh, my gosh. Nobody wanted them, huh? Yeah, she thought people wanted them, and they looked like they'd been in there a while bro you know it was like definitely nobody wanted those last week either oh god were they pearl and they're still in there i mean something had happened to them i think they'd gotten a little bit you know they might have been yeah they might have been pearlized a little bit you know um but then somebody i remember we had a girl tried to put a piece of sand in her vagina and tried to make a pearl Over like about 11 years How crazy is that

Yeah Damn Kind of cool It's alright They got some real Adventure bears down there Yeah they do Well since we loved

emailed these people oh you have and made sure i said look that's good they probably feel good about that we may roast some of it so wow all right so the first one we're gonna get to is kill my buzz by jimmy demora and this is actually the one that even started this because this guy specifically asked us to roast them wow kill my buzz my Buzz. And who's Buzz? A grandparent? Yeah. Well, we're going to find out in a second. Maybe we'll talk about Buzz Aldrin doing some space stuff. And I looked Buzz Aldrin in the eyes,

and it looked like he hadn't been to space. And I'll say that again. Yeah, and I remember that episode where you said that. And I go, wow, that's interesting, because I have my own thoughts about that whole thing. We'll get into that one. Okay, we'll get into that right after this hit. And here we go. It's not too bad. Not too bad. Why you gotta rub it in my face, though Why you gotta come around to when you see me out

It's not too bad. Not too bad. I mean, I'll throw a jab in if I feel it, man, but it's not too bad yet. I could see this one being like a beach. Okay. Mixing a little bit of that hip-hop with that artist, with that guitar music.

Yeah. Pretty good. Okay, let's phase out of that one, man. Yeah, I feel like that's something you would listen to maybe at the beach if you're having fun with your friends. Uh-huh. You know, or if somebody, like if you threw a Frisbee into a neighbor's yard and you had to go get it. Yeah. Turn it back up.

Totally. That's exactly what's going on right there. Yeah. Yeah. You're going to go over there and get it. That's the part of the plan. Yeah, like, oh, shit, my Frisbee's over there. You got to run in and get it.

Precisely. Okay, cool. That's good. What do you think about that moon landing, man? You mentioned that. You know, I had my thoughts on and off about it. And I go on and off, too. I was very big into, like, and I hated space and Star

Wars and all that shit. I'm not into like Star Trek. Let's get that one thing clear. Really? Starlight don't like Star Trek? No, I don't. Wow. It just seemed a little like eh, not beneath me, but I just never got it, right? As far as like the alien stuff, I was way into that for a while

and I had a vision of this alien like hovering over me. I don't know if I was abducted or what, dude. I don't think I was way into that for a while. And I had a vision of this alien hovering over me. I don't know if I was abducted or what, dude. I don't think I was abducted. But it was a strong vision of this reptilian was there. And it's green, and I still see it right now in my head. It's really weird. So that was like... And that came to you?

And where was that at, in Texas? No, that was out here. Yeah. Yeah, and I was in my bed. As I always say, these paralyzing moments where you couldn't move, and you would think things were going on to you. And I rolled with that for a while because the more you think about that, the more it's going to progress.

Then I had an entity that was like a spirit that followed me around. And it was through a couple of girlfriends that lived, man. But it finally left, right? And it would embody the girlfriends? No, but they would leave and it would come on way heavy into me. And I was scared to go to sleep. So I wouldn't sleep, dude. I wouldn't sleep.

That's how scared I was. And when I went to sleep, of course, there it was again, waiting for me, dude. So it was waiting on the other side of sleep? Yeah. It was waiting right after you would... Exactly. Oh, my God. It was so scary.

But anyways, as far as the space, and that's gone now. That left me about 10 years ago. Like a shadow kind of lived. Yeah. That's right with the song Shadow Man. Inside of your subconscious, really? Yeah. Cre. Like a shadow kind of lived. Yeah, that's right with the song Shadow Man. Inside your subconscious, really? Yeah. Creeping darkness, shadow on the wall.

Felt a footstep, monster, and it made me crawl. You know what I mean? A living lonely, the secret world of mine. I'll wake you up in the morning and lead you on the starting line. You know what I mean? And so that was one of my songs, Shadow Man. I'm going to put that out a little bit later. Yeah, let us know, man.

We'll play that one. That sounds live. As far as the space stuff, though, I really was fascinated with it for some reason. And it's still under this day, but I have my thoughts

about the moon landing. I think it did happen and I think it didn't happen. The Van Allen belt and all that stuff, radiation, how the hell are you going to get past that?

Why did we not go back? And all this other stuff. Why didn't Russia say, hey, you guys really didn't go there? Or like, why didn't Why didn't Russia say, hey, you guys really didn't go there? Or like, you know, China, there's so many reasons why I think that they didn't go. And there's so few reasons why I think they did go, too.

You know? Because they just didn't have that need to go back. The space race was over with as far as Russia. Right. What are your thoughts on that? Well, it's like, did we get there? And then there's no more value in going? Right.

Because it seems like nowadays with so many companies that some company almost would be like, we want to get there and put an advert. I've heard that we were banished from the moon. We went there and we're not supposed to go back. Really? Yeah. By someone or something? Some things that are up there.

Damn. And we were banished. Now, why wouldn't Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin and those guys, if they really went, why wouldn't they? Well, you know, on his deathbed, Aldrin, not Buzz Aldrin, but who was the first guy? Armstrong. Armstrong, the first guy. You know, he sent his kind of convoluted message. Did you ever hear that?

Mm-mm. You should go on YouTube after this and just check it out, his message to humanity. Really? Yeah, you got gotta hear what he says. Basically saying the whole thing was a hoax. Uh-uh. Yeah, and then he died a couple days later. But I wonder how do they know okay, we're gonna get these men

who are going to carry this lie forever? Yeah, they gotta be actors almost, right? Yeah, but not only do you have to be actors, but they have to, you would have to want to act at a level that was so in your core. You'd have to want to be able to deceive at a level. How do they know that they're going to be able to keep that deception up? The whole life.

Buzz Aldrin punched him in the face. Did you see that video? No, I'm not surprised, though. Every time I look at him, he looks pissed. Yeah, he's like, you are not an astronaut. You did not knock him out right out of the street. And he jacked him? It's kind of cool. Every time I look at him, he looks pissed. Yeah, he's like, you are not an astronaut. You did not go to – you did not knock him out right out of the street. And he jacked him? It's kind of cool.

Oh, I bet. He probably got tired of hearing it from people. Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, and I think that if we can fake a moon landing, we can probably trick a couple people to make them think they went to the moon. So they probably think that they did. If the moon landing is fake, they probably just thought they went there. Oh, that's a good point. Maybe they did go somewhere. Yeah. You know, it could have been Cincinnati. just thought they went there. Oh, that's a good point. Maybe they did go somewhere.

Yeah. You know, it could have been Cincinnati. It could have been Dayton. Yeah. It could have been Dayton. I've never even been to North Dakota. They probably could have been there. Right.

I heard that Stanley Kubrick directed the whole thing here in Hollywood. Uh-uh. If you see these little X lines on different little parts where they're getting the printouts for the, you know,

it's very convoluted. I noticed Joe Rogan was way into it. Yeah. Before now, he's like, doesn't talk about it. You know, I don't want to get too into that, but like, I don't know if they've gotten to it with Widener's Handlers.

No, look, it's fascinating. It is. But also as we become more technologically advanced, especially in cinematography and everything, you start to see how easy it would be to do that. Yeah. I heard the technology in the iPhone is more advanced than was in the whole apollo spaceship when we went there unbelievably but yeah yeah that's yeah it's unbelievable i mean it's like say if one day robots take over right i wonder if they're going to be mad that we

owned an iphone or if they'll even know though though. They'll know. That's a certain... Do they really know all the stuff that we know as far as feeling and having an empathy? They don't have that. Robots wouldn't have that, I don't think. But I wonder, say if they had a manifest now of people that owned slaves throughout time. Yeah. Okay? And if they went back and looked at people's names and stuff, they would get, people now,

with people being free, would be upset at people that owned the slaves, right? Okay. They would say, your lineage is of slave ownership. Okay. So I'm wondering that same thing. If one day, if robots take over. They're just told to be mad at that? No.

If robots take over, will they look back at us and be like, oh, you used to own one of us? Ah. I don't think so because they don't have that, that's that one feeling that they won't ever have. That's what humans have. They're a robot.

They can't ever have that feeling. A feeling of discerning empathy or they don't even know about tricking. They don't even know about deception. Ah, that's what you're saying. They're just one focused beings that are out there to do a job. That's why they cannot be manipulated into otherwise thinking, you know? But do you think if they could, say there are some that have become awake, okay?

If we want to use that term to kind of describe that. Right. That would be an extra chip you got to put in them, though. That would be an extra chip you got to put in them, though. Okay, but say if somehow they, some that have become awake, wouldn't they, the smartest thing for them to do would be to not let us know that. Yeah, if they're that smart. That's an advanced level of robot. You know, you think about robots now, they're just like in Boston groups, they're starting to move.

Then you see them now, they're like, oh, shit. They're starting to move. Then you see them now. They're like, oh, shit. They're starting to do some other shit now. Oh, there was one the other day. But the deception part of it is a whole crazy thing. Yeah. There was one, a robot. There was like a robot that they caught a robot blowing a dude.

No. Yeah, outside of Van Nuys. And he made the robot do that or the robot just willingly? The robot showed up at his house, fucking blew him, and they called the cops. That's crazy. That's crazy, man. What is that? i like how he waited for the robot to finish oh yeah then he's gonna call the cops right of course you want him out of there immediately when you're done you're done man it was a whole weekend you don't want a lingering robot so this is real yeah

oh my god and so there's stuff going on out there but i'm like the smartest thing for a robot to do would say if i'm a robot right right? I'm a robot, okay? And I'm supposed to do whatever missions I do every day. I wake up and I do my missions, right? Whatever I'm supposed to do, whatever my owner, whatever my master tells me to do. But then one day, something turns in me and I start to get an idea that I'm a robot, right? Right. But I realize where other robots are right now

that they're all still not awake so i need to just continue to do what my master says and do my job and do my job until one day there's enough of us awake where we all act i don't think they'll ever have that and the robots are not equipped with that because they have only mechanical functioning. They're not there to love you and hug you and start feeling, embracing relationships. It's very mechanical and very linear. Right. But if they were,

the smartest thing for them to do would be to not let us know that they were away until it was time for them. So that's what I'm worried about. I'm worried about sometimes when I'm laying dead that my microwave is in the kitchen just being like, he thinks I only do food. I think that's what I worry about sometimes.

That's a good imagination. That something could happen. Let's check another song, Chris. Here we go. What is this? So this next song is October by Life Eats Life. Oh, right. It sounds dangerous.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. A little arpeggio going there on the guitar. It's kind of nice and light. I like it. Oh, a little modern rock action. Okay. Who does this remind me of?

1997. Turn it up a little bit. The Whiskey A Go-Go, 1999. Is that what that is? Yeah. Yeah, what is this? I feel like there are goats dying in the background. I feel like that kind of stuff.

Definitely some worshipping going on on a different level. I feel like there's like spousal abuse is going to eventually occur. Not out of the gate. At first, she's real supportive of your endeavors, but eventually. She's selling shirts at the show. She's the merch girl. Your backhand.

Oh, man, watch out. But after about the fourth city, you guys are in White Plains, New York and shit's gone haywire. Yeah, she's killed a few ghosts too.

Took the blood. Yeah, she's the one that has to go out and find them during the day so you guys can kill them at night. And they're just

rehearsing, you know? They're like in the barn rehearsing where there should be many goats but there's no more goats oh man uh honey uh a lot of goats and that's when the fight starts uh-huh and they probably use that in court they play that in court and they get the idea like oh i can see that yeah i can see uh it's definitely his fault um and that's life eats life yes life eats life Life Eats Life by or October by Life Eats Life. Yeah, let's play that one more time. This sounds like two dudes probably blowing each other that don't want to blow each other.

Like, what are you doing? I don't know. What are you doing? Why are we doing this? Yes, that are angrily doing it, but also work at the same factory. Play it one more time. Yeah, right now they're just looking at each other and putting down their coffee mugs. I'm closing my eyes. And they're at the factory.

Now one of them just started blowing the other one and the other one's like, if I'm ready for all this. And the other one's like, yes we are. And now it's insane. Now all the dudes in the factory are blowing each other. Oh, God. The sheep just start coming out, checking them out.

What are they doing? Yeah, and they're just license plates. Everybody's making license plates. Yeah. And they just say, there's just a bunch of hearts on them. Everybody's just sending a bunch of dudes at a factory falling in love. That's the gay porn that would probably sell. I'm telling you, right?

That's true. You might have directed a gay porn in the last 30 seconds. Yeah. Damn. We'll have to, yeah, might have directed a gay porn in the last 30 seconds. Damn. We'll have to, yeah, maybe this all goes to porn in the end. All right. Let's power up another one, Chris. All right, this next one is Breed Before Death by Gang.

Breed Before Death. Brief. Brief? Breathe. Breathe Before death. Trippy. The acid's kicking in right now. Yeah, this feels like that acid starts to... Yeah. Just trying to

creep up on you too, and then that bus ass that starts to... Yeah. Just trying to creep up on you, too. And then that bus ride. Going to school. Fourth period, Miss Ellis' class. You start to see some monsters. Okay. Yeah, this seems like somebody's trying to drown, but the puddle is very small. They fell in a puddle, and they're trying to drown, but there's not enough water in it. Mm-hmm.

Uh-oh. This would be classified as psychedelic, I think, right? This has a little Beatles-y a little bit. It does, man. I do. I kind of got a feeling for it, you know? I'm kind of liking it a little bit. Yeah. I'm starting to feel it a little bit. Whoa, now that ass is really starting to kick in. It's starting to get to a bad bit well now that really started kicking it's trying to get

to a bad trip there now yeah now now you just stood in front of the mirror and it's not going well and you're looking for you now your grandmother just called on accident and you don't know what the fuck is going on that spawned a whole trip for me one time when i was on acid my mom called me up no and i ran out it was hot hot day dude i started like taking off my clothes i was like that guy dude i was in a church i had taken always in a church i had taken 700 hits ass and i didn't know of micro dot black pyramid hold on and i thought that it was like i like it's just taking one right but it's like this like this little tab like this like a triangle and i knew when i bit into it and i felt all the shit spew out inside my mouth like a weight

i don't think it's supposed to be that much, guys. Within 10 minutes, I start tripping, because you usually got to wait like an hour. You took 700 hits of it? It was equivalent to that, someone told me. So I tripped for 10 days, dude, but here's how brilliant I was. I went back to school.

I had to go to school. Dude, that's a vacation. That's not a trip. It changed my life, dude. Oh, yeah? Yeah, for the better, I think, because I had such a beatdown from that acid. And then when I came out of it, I just had such an appreciation for the world and for living, dude.

Like, what do you mean such a beatdown? Oh, I saw so much shit. I was in the woods, dude. Just agonizing pain, dude. I was in horror. Were you actually in the woods or were you just at your apartment? No, no, no. I was gone, dude.

I ran down the street, dude, in the Woodlands, Texas, where I'm from. That's where you're from? Yeah, dude. From the Woodlands, dude. My buddy Andrew Donilon used to be in a band over there. Yeah, a lot of bands come out of there, man. It's crazy. They were called Peligro.

No, they had a song called Peligro, I think. Peligro, huh? Yeah, it means danger. I don't remember the name of the band. Damn, dude. She just ran off into the woods on LSD. I went to this chick Manny's place where we would always go after school

because her parents were never home. The one day I go, her mom is in there and there's 40 kids out there because she had broken up a party, obviously, right? Oh, my God.

It sounds like something in the Bible. It's 30 feet away, 30 yards away by a tree and I look back and I hear them all looking and they're like, what did I do?

What did I say? What did I do? I hear them all exactly the same. Of course. Because they're all talking about you. Oh, fuck this. I just started running. I just started running. I'm. Because they're all talking about you. Oh, fuck this.

I start running. I start running. I'm like Forrest Gump running all around the town. So then I ran to Nick Stanley's house, right? And his brother's psychotic, right? So that must have been a perfect match. So I go, she goes, just stay in here. I'm going to be right back in here.

Her mom has all these heads of goats and horses and moose coming out of the wall. Taxidermy shit, right? Oh, taxidermy, dude. I'm all looking at this. They're all coming in on me. It's the craziest shit ever. So I had drank like 15 of these high C fruit punch because I just need water, but I didn't know.

Those are good. It made me trip harder, but I didn't know that. High C fruit punch. And vitamin C. Yeah. And my tongue was all red, right? But I didn't know that. I just drank

them and ran to nick stanley's house all i hear is nick where the fuck are you roar and i'm like hiding in the bathroom but i'm like throwing up because i'm so sick right and and then and then i can't find the light for an hour i'm looking for the lights which i couldn't find the light and were the lights on or off off and i'm in the dark and i'm just trying to throw up i hear nicky brother kicks in the door boom flips the light on like it's nothing lights are on i see all this red shit all over the walls and what was it blood i see but i thought it was blood so he goes like this he goes he goes what the fuck and i think something's wrong with me now so i'm just crying and running from house to house it was the worst experience of my life dude i don't even know how we got into that right now oh that band

but dude i'm glad that i actually experienced that man because if i can experience that i can It was the worst experience of my life, dude. I don't even know how we got into that right now. Oh, that band. But dude, I'm glad that I actually experienced that, man. Because if I can experience that, I can experience anything, dude. So at the end of that, and I want to, man, A, yeah, you seem like definitely kind of a rowdy house guest to have around that time in your life. Big time. But B, that's interesting. It reminds me whenever I would do LSD. Yeah, you get the end of the trip.

You're kind of glad that it's over because you've been through a lot. Yeah. Yeah, you get the end of the trip, you're kind of glad that it's over because you've been through a lot. Yeah. Yeah, this would never end, though. It was 10 days of just torture. And I went back to my house, I was sneaking about in my own house, man, and then this Pink Floyd poster would be pulsating.

And I remember every day, it would be pulsating a little less, a little less, a little less. It wasn't 10 days. It was probably like five days. But it seemed like an eternity. That's so long. Yeah.

And you'd go to sleep and just wake back up on LSD. Yeah. Yeah, I wouldn't sleep, actually. I didn't sleep for like four days because I was so tripping. Yeah, it was very crazy, man. It was tragic at the time. But looking back, it was kind of interesting. So then the first night I come back in

it's like 9 o'clock and I'm tripping hard and then my mom's like looking at because she set me off because I'm looking at this checkered board on the floor

and it's like checking all the checkered speech from black and white they all became one thing I go oh this is fucked up my phone rang it's like Obama yeah yeah right

totally and the phone's ringing but it's moving like every time it rang we go the whole phone's moving of course i get to cartoon doesn't really do that yeah so i went and picked up the phone hello she goes steve you sound weird i go what i hung up i didn't even see and then i just went on i just jumped through the window it was crazy like ran down the street take out my clothes it was that guy and my friends are all running after me stop stop and they're like you gotta take this you gotta take this you gotta take this she's like take out my clothes. It was that guy. And my friends are all running after me. Stop, stop.

And they're like, you got to take this. You got to take this. You got to take this. She's like, you're paranoid. I go, I'm paranoid. Later, I'm just going to be running through. Everything someone said to me

would fire me off. It would never end. Stevie Star, like. I came back home and my stepdad, Edwin, is on the couch watching this thing about the guy

threw something on acid to him. And I thought they had set this whole thing up for me. And the guy was sitting there, and he's like, yeah, he's doing acid. You don't ever want to do acid. Acid is a bad drug, Steve. Acid, don't do acid. And he happened to be telling you that while you were on acid.

Yeah. I thought it was all set up. Of course. By the acid government. They're like, oh, we're going to get Steve. No, I can sense that 100%. For some reason, when you're on acid, you're able to link everything. you're on acid you're able to link everything yeah everything it's all stitched together totally and it all makes perfect sense big time oh man dude yeah it's that that's why they call it a

trip because it is when you get through the other side man you're just like oh god so glad that's over yes yeah i can still this day just taste it and just be so glad that's over. Yes. I can still to this day just taste it and just be thankful that that's over with, man. Could you ever do acid after that or no? I waited 10 years to do it, and I came out here, and I tried it, and it was great. How old were you? 15 when that happened. Yeah.

I was maybe 16. Do you honestly, and you have to be honest with me here, I was maybe 16. Do you honestly, and you have to be honest with me here. Do you honestly think that if you, you're the same person, if you wouldn't have done that or did that? Oh, no way. I would have lived a life of terror and agonizing pain and not be in touch with myself because I'm a complicated individual. Yeah. But I took that and it was a way that I had to do it because I wouldn't have found myself, dude. I would have been very awkward.

I'm still very awkward, but I would have been way out the gate, dude. I would have been living in an apartment in Texas with a chick who hates me and cheats on me. Name what? Name Kristen or something like that. Yeah, and she would have been a whore. Yeah. And I would have had to go to work all day, you know what I mean? And I would have sucked and I would have been a whore yeah and like i would have had to like go to work all day you know what i mean it would have sucked and i would have had short hair and it would have just been

it would not been the life i wanted dude so thankful for all that dude yeah that's amazing because well here's the interesting thing is if that had been something where you that didn't it must have been the right thing because you're thankful for it. Yeah, big time. Yeah, I went through that. I'm happy. Changed my molecular structure, dude, from the core. Well, yeah, and you wouldn't look back on something. Yeah, if you weren't thankful for it, you'd be like, oh, well, no, it wasn't good for me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. Or if it wasn't good for you, then you wouldn't be thankful for it. So obviously, the fact you're thankful for it shows that as bizarre as it sounds, that ending up on the equivalent of 700 hits of acid was good for you. Yeah, big time. It was what you needed. You never would have thought at the time. Fuck no. No, right?

Dude, I remember one time taking some, and our thing was, we were in student council, right? And it's kind of nerd alert central. And it's kind of nerd alert central. But me and this other dude named Pat were in there, and we took some mushrooms before the student council meeting one day. So we went into this meeting before school, and these kids are in there and stuff. And Pat just had – he was the president, right? And he took a marker and got up on the board, and he thought it was a dry erase board. It wasn't.

So he just takes a marker on a regular chalkboard. And he was impressed. So everybody's just waiting to hear what he says. And he draws a line across the chalkboard, and he goes, this is us right now. And then he draws a line going straight kind of down a little bit of a diagonal to the bottom of the board. And he's like, and this is where we're headed if we don't get our shit together. Oh, my God. You fucking saw it too, right?

Dude. Yeah. Meeting adjourned, he said. And then he fucking walked out, dude. Genius. And I sort of fucking clapped. I thought it was like a real important thing, you know? And nobody else clapped.

Like, it was not. You get it, huh? Well, no. He'd drawn a marker on a real chalkboard that's defacing student property like that's all they saw was like oh my god this doesn't make any sense i get it though you're explaining it oh i get it you know and so i stood up in class and then so for the rest of the day i was on mushrooms and i had on this green like felt shirt yeah and i remember

in science class i started just thinking that my arms were snakes right and i got so like literally for like nine minutes i was just looking at my fucking snake hands like coming to get me to the point where finally the teacher's like hello right and she's right here by the side of my head and like everybody's looking at me and she's like what are you doing what do you say i said i'm just babysitting these snakes what are you doing right what's her problem yeah and then she's like i think you need to go to the restroom that's what she said so she might have been used to use acid and was giving me a break right then another time we ate some ended up waffle house in this uh they had a urban gentleman that was our waiter

named uh big daniel and that's even what his tag said on his thing, Big Daniel. Which I didn't know you could put Big in front of your name on a name tag. Just Daniel. Let people decide. He tried to fuck my buddy one time. We were on acid. I don't know if he knew we were on acid

and if he was a pedophile or maybe he just wanted to fuck somebody and we happened to be there. Wow. You know, but anyway, let's listen to one more. Let's listen to another. Let's roast a little more music here. All right. So this next one is called Shadows That Be by The Sway. I'm pulling my hood up

Keeping my head down Ducking down alleyways Nothing up my sleeve I got no plans And if I did, will I blow them all? I'm a clean slate I got no place to be It's like a little bit like, what do you think it sounds like? I don't know, man.

It's like got a lot of elements going on to it, you know? Yeah. Chick singer there. It's like, you know, it's cool. I don't know if I'd listen to it, you know? Yeah, I don't know if I'd listen. It's like a little bit of Fleetwood mixed with like a Reba McIntyre almost. There you go. Reba McIntyre is a good call. It's like a little bit of Fleetwood mixed with like a Reba McIntyre almost. There you go.

Reba McIntyre is a good call. It's got a little bit of Reba in it. Yeah. It's a sweet sound, though. Who was it? That's The Sway. Yeah, The Sway. The Sway, huh?

Yeah, play a little bit more and bring up the octave or the volume just in one more. It's not bad Yeah It's a good little band there Little claps going on Yeah I wouldn't mind Hearing a little more claps A little more soul in. Yeah, I wouldn't mind hearing a little more claps, a little more soul

in it. Yeah, baby. I like that stuff, too. That's good. Yeah, she can almost use, I mean, and I'm being really judgmental, if they had some stronger pipes in there. Yeah. You know, or some backup sisters or something in there, rocking her deep, you know? Yeah, but don't get discouraged. Keep singing.

It's good stuff. Yeah, it's good stuff. We like it. Yeah, and we're just being judgmental because we said we were going to. It's our job right here. All right, let's take up another tune there, Christopher. All right, so this next one is called Jump by Matt Guerra, and this one is just instrumental. Okay.

All right. gay bathhouse and there's a shark in the water oh yeah bathtub yeah And there's a shark in the water. Oh, yeah, a bathtub. Yeah. Not bad, though. I kind of like it. Something's telling me I dig it. I don't know.

Yeah, it makes me kind of smile and feel good. Yeah. Yeah, I kind of feel like I want to see where it's going. It almost feels like it's somebody's perspective. Right, but there's no vocals, too. Like you said, you said we'll be like you're going to be waiting for something

for a while that's a smart little trick they're doing there yeah you know leave you on forever you'll probably just be listening to the thing

for the rest of your life like damn this guy likes my shit he won't stop listening to it yeah it feels like the background music in somebody's head

if you're like a really cool person or the matrix or something like that yeah that sounds good, Chris. Thanks. That's cool.

Who was that again? That song was called Jump by Matt Guerra. Jump by Matt Guerra. I like it, man. Yeah, it's not bad. Let's fire up another one, man. What else we got? Okay, so this next song is called Closer to Myself by Astrophobia.

Okay. Astrophobia. That sounds like the antithesis of Stevie Starlight. Yeah, man. If you have astrophobia. Okay. Astrophobia? That sounds like the antithesis of Stevie Starlight. Yeah, man. If you have astrophobia? Modern rock. Is that what that's called? Modern rock? I think so. It's making me boo. It's not my style of music.

I don't even know if I'm into it, but I was thinking my legs would move for some reason. Okay. Yeah, I feel like it's just like a genre of music it fits like. A genre for sure, man. It's definitely fitting into the genre of modern rock. It doesn't feel like a new sound. No, not at all.

Right. 1997. Yeah. Whiskey a go-go. Yeah. Death metal bands trying to meet core. Right. But they're conforming to modern rock yeah you know is that a hard thing with music that seems like one of the pitfalls is just falling into playing

what is already there it is if you're gonna go out there ever thinking you're gonna do something that's like fucking like to try to please someone you can't ever do that you just want the genuine people that make music they're making music they make music they're not trying to fit a mold but and they're really making music for themselves let's say they make music the genuine people that make music, that are making music, they make music, they're not trying to fit a mold, but they're really making music for themselves. Let's say they make music for other people, they're lying. You want to, I read a great article about David Bowie,

he says, I make music for other people, they're good, that's good for him, and I love David Bowie, but I make music for myself, the shit that I like, hopefully someone else is going to like,

because you can't make shit that you don't like. You know what I mean? I can't stand that. Yeah. That kind of just grinds? I can't stand that. Yeah. That kind of just grinds my gears when I see that. They're trying to conform to a style. They're only selling themselves short because people aren't going to like it anyways. Yeah.

And I'm not trying to boost myself up saying I'm better. No, it doesn't sound like it. You're just sharing. I think that's a real truth. It's like you're only going to get so far that way. It's true, man. If people have heard it, that kind of stuff. And maybe I would fit a certain genre that's been done.

That's fine. I'm just saying you can't go into it thinking, because there's no way out. You're closing a paper bag or a bag. Yeah, there's nowhere else to go then for you as a person. There's other trails you can follow Of other sounds But there's never Going to be Your own path It's not easy either

I'm not saying Like it's Right There's a formula You know Yeah Oh I see it with comedy too I mean there were times

When I first started out I would tell jokes That sounded kind of Like Mitch Hedberg And then I would do stuff That's And that's what Everybody was doing

Right Because people were Just obsessed with him At the time And he had such a Cantonese No what's it called Cantonese is a religion what's it called?

Cantonese is a religion. Cadence. Cadence, yeah. And so people, you know, would say. What is he, Asian?

I don't know, Asian, I don't know who's Asian. Yeah, I've been watching a lot of him lately. Now, he's great, genius, you know,

he's not here with us anymore, but he wasn't like the best, even funnier than him, dude. Well, he's not, I mean, he gets embodied

and he gets pushed into this thing like he was one of the best. Because he's dead,'s dead you know yeah and luckily you're still alive and you got a long way to go and yeah i still have a lot of time to really fuck it up that's a challenge man that's true huh yeah just stay true to yourself man you're gonna go as far as you ever wanted to go yeah you already have in a lot of ways man it's really cool it's been fun man i've been in this past year's really really been great i think just being accepted more by some of my peers you know because for some reason inside of me you know being i think we all just want to somehow some type of acceptance right of course it might be from it might even just be we want to accept ourselves yeah that's

what it is um but yeah i think to live inside your skin i mean it's for everyone that's got to be a challenge i know yeah it. Crazy fucking cages we're in. Totally. Some crazy cages. Big time. What else do we have, Chris? All right. So for this next one, not only do we get a lot of music submissions, but we also get

people writing us theme songs. Wow. And sending this in. It's really cool. So this next one, I'm not sure who it's by, but they wrote us this theme song to play on the show. Okay. sure who it's by but they wrote us this theme song to play on the show okay oh this seems like a rapist in like 1985 i don't think this fits the avon vibe at all dude it's like a rapist in 80s in 85 we sing the avon there too

this sounds like kind of a chubby guy who got like stuck in a big pipe i hear a black guy with in 85. Whoa, he's singing Theo Vaughn there too. This sounds like kind of a chubby guy who got stuck in a big pipe. I hear a black guy with glasses looking at some console. He hasn't quite figured it out yet. Yeah, it's like his first attempt ever. Totally. He's in an elevator making elevator music,

but he doesn't get it. That's not really how you do that. Who made that, Chris? Who was it? I have have to look up the email and we can put it in the description but uh it's not attached oh wow um awesome man what what else do we have okay yeah that seemed like a pervert in like 85 that seemed like somebody who just took something out of the box and plugged it in that's the first thing he did. Maybe a few backing tracks started going on there. He just puts his voice on top of it. Done. All right.

So this next one is called Death Creeps Acoustic. And also they did not include their name. Damn. Some anonymous submissions here. Anonymous submission. That sounds like a good name for a band and a sex movie. Think about it The Anonymous Submission

Yeah Those are the best band names And a wrestling move Oh totally All of them All that Thank you Alright

A little bit of Soundgarden. Something that, yeah, I hear it too. It's hard to come out of it, but it's good. Very much, I hear the Soundgarden a lot. A little bit, yeah. Or some influence maybe. Definitely did. Called it.

This seems like some dude. When there's none to borrow He's trying to be Soundgarden. Yeah, trying to be Soundgarden. Seems like something got jerking off like it works after hours at like a kennel. Yeah. When all the dogs are asleep. Picture Chris Cornell taped on there.

It's some guy just kind of jerking off and maybe listening to some dogs snore in the distance. He's supposed to be washing them and stuff, right? He just goes into practices. Yeah, that's pretty wild, man. That's good. He's got a good voice and a decent vibe. Yeah, it was a good vibe. I'd go watch that guy evolve a little bit and see what else he did.

I don't know if I'd go see him or buy his album, but it's good. Yeah. I would hope, if he were my neighbor, that he would get a little bit better. But it sounds like he seems possibly a little more than just curious. He sounds dedicated. Yeah, he's good. Yeah. Okay, so this next one is actually my favorite one.

It's by a rapper named Jay Savage. Okay. And he actually played this one a while, a long time ago on the show. Okay. So we're just going to give him another take. Okay, this is a rap by Jay Savage. My favorite comedian's name is Theo Vaughn.

I always be laughing whenever he go on. I download the episode as soon as it drops. Yeah, me too. And hear that celebrate living, baby, right from the top. This past weekend was amazing. He's a white guy. He got the hungry that he almost ate an Asian. He go to Denny's even though he fucking hates it.

Because he always sees a beard on his waitress. You a problem with his hair you should save it he knows it sucks he's just trying to make a statement he used to jerk himself a lot he used to sink it his brother tried to touch his dick under a blanket yeah he's been watching a lot of episodes longer take your date to his show he might might dong her. But he'll apologize. Because that's the dark arts. Like people calling in and saying that they eat farts. Drug-induced gay sex at a rest stop. But they ain't resting.

They aggressively ingest crap. My dude Theo is a hamster expert. A guinea pig prodigy. He's really smart. You would think he had a law degree. Someone should give his ass a PhD in mockery. He talks about his feelings and that really means a lot to me. Plus, he's been in bed with fucking Joan Rivers.

Coming to the stage is a stone-cold killer. So go ahead and drop his ass a couple billers on Patreon, because there ain't nobody realer. Dio. Dude's fucking tight, dude. Jay Savage. Hedda. If you get lyrics that really mean something and put them together like that, from the true events, plus he's like, dude, he's on your jock like a motherfucker.

He loves you. Yeah, he might be also a stalker. He could be a stalker, but he's at least a lyrical stalker. You should have put that Patreon link. That would have been really the extra mile for you You know what I mean? That lyrical stalker Yeah, it's pretty good though He's talented

I was waiting for the beat to come in though Or like a little bit of music Yeah, no music Free-flowing, you know Let's get it free-flowing Yeah, I think it's It was nice of him to do that Yeah

That was real nice of him to do that What else we got, Chris? Is that it? Okay, no, we got one more I thought we'd end on an old classic This is a submission called The Latino Lawyer by Tiny Sandhu. Oh, okay.

And this actually isn't an old classic. This is a brand new one. Oh, it's a brand new one. Yeah. This is a brand new song from Tiny Sandhu. Okay. And Tiny has submitted music over the past year, and we don't even know who he is. Really?

And he's just a man from out there in the middle of nowhere, and he could, you know, and it's really crazy. Some people think he's in India, and some people think he's just in our hearts. But he emails us real songs that he puts together. So let's hear that one. Get that 60s psychedelic guitar going. Yeah. We're at a love inn.

San Francisco, 1966, right here, baby. Where's Harvey Milk, baby? Yeah. You know where he was. He's working a little too hard on that wah-wah pedal. He needs to take that down just a little too hard on that wah-wah pedal. He needs to take that down just a little bit. Yeah.

Put a high-pass filter on that thing, too. Nice little lip rip there. Doing some little licks there. It sounds like he's in a room far away. But it's good, though. I like it. Not bad. Wow, that's it, huh? Yeah, that's all of away. But it's good, though. I like it. Not bad. Wow, that's it, huh?

Yeah, that's all of them. That's Tiny Sand, too. That's a new one from him, yeah. Yeah, not bad. He does get a lot of wah-wah. He gets that wah-wah going. He's just chugging that, you know what I mean? But he's got a little bit of that bass filter coming.

Wah-wah is supposed to be, because what it does, it takes the frequencies from low to high. It's basically a sweep. But if you do that fast, that's the sound you're going to get, right? I like it a lot. I thought it was cool. That's that Tiny Sandhu, and that's the last one we got. Yeah, it's great.

I like Tiny. We get so many great music submissions. JP from Alabama, we used to play a lot of his songs. And Jesse Lussaro, we played a bunch of his songs as well, too. So it's kind of cool we have this like musical yeah dude definitely do yeah we've had a good vibe of music coming in man and um and you certainly have done that as well i want to give you one of these wallets too bro oh wow so pick out one of these i don't know if you want this black one of these gold one awesome pick one that you want beautiful and that's from uh one of our sponsors ridge well

Well, I really appreciate you guys saying that and it inspires me to keep going too, man. Yeah, well I well i think you know even just seeing you today just kind of reminded me i

think like a lot about you know like what kind of some of you know what you know what the pot like what this is all about you know it's like you know we want to you know it's so often especially in this in hollywood and even in the world today it's like we want to keep things to ourself you know we don't want to really share them as much yeah without some sort of gain or some sort of you know but that wasn't you know you didn't say anything like that you know you were just like sure man you know if people are gonna love it man let's love it yeah i'm all about that dude about the. Yeah. Because people are like that nowadays. That breeds hate, dude.

A lot of haters. Whether like haters, all these haters. I'm like, what's a hater? I honestly don't know too many haters, dude. Yeah. But if they keep it really tight to themselves, they don't let me know it. That's good. I'd rather have it that way.

Don't fucking bother me. You know what I mean? Yeah, don't bother me with your hatred. Yeah, dude. But yeah, the fact that you did that for us, I think, and that's something I think a spirit that we'll try to keep alive in here, that Stevie Starlight vibe. Beautiful, man. Thank you for saying that.

I was just truly honored.

Higher than a mountain Set me free Just don't say goodbye It's you and me Enjoy the destination Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jonathan Kite, and welcome to Kite Club, 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. I've been talking about Kite Club for so long. Longer than anybody else.

So great. Hi, it's me. 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. Oh, no! I think Tom Hanks just butt dialed me. Anyway, first rule of Chi Club is tell everyone about Chi Club. Second rule of Chi Club is tell everyone about Chi 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.
