All right, whoo, it's springtime, baby. You know, spring is, um, if you don't know what spring is, it's when winter kind of gets lazy, and winter kind of falls asleep at the wheel, and spring starts to perk up. You know, spring is that time you can hear, um, you could hear flowers start to put deodorant on. You know, they're about to, they're thinking about popping back out into the world, showing just flexing them petals, baby. You know, if you put your ear up to the snow right now, you can hear, you can hear little animals start to yawn a little. You might hear a chip monk do it. He's thinking about popping out, you know, doing something. Maybe looking for

a little dip monk, you know, he's thinking, oh, I'm gonna get out, maybe meet me a woman. It's that time, almost. And that spring, if you think, you know, you can hear, you could hear water start to kind of, you know, you could hear on a mountain, you could hear a mountain, if you put your ear up to a mountain, you could hear it saying, oh, you know what? Fuck all these, uh, skiers and snowboarders. I'm about ready to drip out, make a stream, and do something different. That spring, if you look in the, up in the trees, sometimes you could, you'll see a hole in a tree go peek in there, and you'll see a couple of birds in there doing it wildly and doing, um, maybe doggie style or something. I don't

know if birds do doggie style. That seems really, but that seems like the dark arts right there. But it's that time of year, you'll see, uh, you know, you'll see an odder kind of getting out of a sleeping bag. That spring, baby, it's here. And I'm here. And so are you. Let's go. And that's a little law. That's that beautiful diddy. That's that beautiful diddy. And that's by tiny sand who, and tiny sand who's a, well, we don't know what he is. Tiny sand who is a man who makes melodies somewhere in the great beyond. And he sent them to me through email. And in the old days, now we have email. In the old days, you may see a donkey come

up and a letter will fall off of his back. You may have a black, a black raven or something or a dark bird or something, you know, a flamenco Negro, you know, fly by and just, you know, just spit up a secret, you know, you then you then, and that evolved eventually had the US postal system and everything. And now we have email, which when you think about it, email, it's a lot more direct, you know, to think that in the old days, if you wanted to send somebody an email, you had to give it to a man who you didn't know, who may have been who knows doing what, you know, he might have been doing dope. He might have been doing uppers, downers, rounders, whatever, side splitters. He might have been doing anything

and trust that that bad boy was going to drop off the things you needed to say to somebody else. Geez, that seems, that seems old school. But, but now we got email and it's the direct. It's basically an electronic system that says, Hey, fuck that other guy that used to run it over there. And that is a tiny sand who who sent that in. Thank you for that. And that was a Valentine's Day hitter. He sent us and that's more than words. That's a cover of the famous song more than words. And tiny also we'll put a link at the bottom to you can check out some of his other stuff and other things he sent over, over the time period of this podcast. And he was a man, he's a secret man would never met him, never seen

him. And what is he when you think of a tiny sand who it could be anything? It could be a man that's four inches tall and wears a, you know, Birkin stocks and jumps, you know, and he has a guitar on the ground and he just jumps from from he jumps from cord to cord and does it all with his feet. He could be, you know, he could be something as secret as that. That's tiny sand who and man, I'm here, man. I'm making it through the day thawing out by winter. We we're trying to get you to give up big daddy because I have more of a body type that's I don't know if I have that winter body type. You know, I got that thick upper crust, you know, I have the everybody knows I got the heart of a lesbian. My father

told me that when I was very young and even wrote it one time at a napkin on a bar over there at Tony Padone's bar and over at the stinking onion, which were a couple of small outfits over there near us in Covington, Louisiana. He would write it on the napkin to remind me a couple of things about myself. I needed to remember and I have also, you know, I got just that thick upper. I got that thick that uproar that top that girdle. You know, I'm front axis. I'm two wheel drive and it's I'm front I'm front wheel drive. You know, if you say if you put my body in the shop, the guy would be like, where the hell is the back wheels? We ain't got him, daddy. We ain't got him. My torque is up top because I have that

chest. It looks like if you look like I took a like a big inhale and never let it out like I was smelling something and just never decided what what never could figure out what I smelled. And so I've never let it go. I've always been like that. I've always had that just that girthy, that forthright kind of those tit fields, you know, the chest and the torso. I probably have 6070 ribs in me. You know, I know I've said it before, but if you beat me open, you'll hear, you know, you'll definitely have a you'll have a black family show up at a park, but a bag of briquettes, baby, because it's time to grill, you know, when daddy when they split me open, because I'm gonna feed the world, baby, with these ribs. So but happy springtime.

Thank you, tiny for that hit. Thank you for dropping us that audio right into us. More than words. More than words. I just got back. I was in Oroville. And we went down over there myself and Ari Manus. And man, we would we got added over there. They're one of the oldest Chinese food restaurants, 10 one fook over there. And then people ain't 10 one fooking around dog. They got that old, but they got fucking Raven. They got, you know, Raven ribs up in there. You going there? They got a damn you could have half a bat wing and some orange marmalade, bro. $6 dog right out the gate. You could have a Chinese lady come up and just spit in your mouth for half a dollar. What is that, bro? And you could get that

super fortune cookie at the end, dude, some guy comes out with a fucking blade, pokes you in the ass and tells you a secret, bro. I never knew my sister. Like, damn, okay. And that's five bucks. That's that finisher. It's that kind of place, man. They got the oldest thing I said, it's 115 years old, the Chinese food there. So if you want to fill your mouth with that, you know, with those the original, you know, something that's just fresh off the boat, man, you could taste the saltwater in it. Then that's the place over there to get into that. But we had fun over there. I got some shows coming up. I'm gonna let you know right now, February 20, 21, and 22. This coming weekend, I'll be in Toronto.

February 27, Red Bank, New Jersey, February 28, Oxon Hill, Maryland, February 29, New Port News, Virginia. That's almost sold out. Everything else is sold out. And then we got the Castle Theater out there in Kahului, Hawaii. And that is going to be March 7. And that's what it is, baby. That's what it is. I got to let you know too, man.

We can't do that now. We don't have it. The DNA we have now where, you know, everybody's doing more online gaming, modern warfare than they can.

Maybe I'll get him in here in a little bit and we'll talk about it. What did I do? Yeah, we went up to horrible. And we got into it. They had a lot of people came out. Nancy came out this lady tall Nancy and she had a dam. She did a homemade sweater. I forgot to get a picture of it and said gang on the front. And that was beautiful. We had two fellows came out one of them had a they were brothers and one

of them had a nervous condition and they had a one of them had an HC on him. Brun hermit crab. And he showed me that bastard, Brun. That was beautiful. And so I love that if somebody especially a beautiful thing is to sneak a pet in. And after the show, if we're doing, you know, meet and greet or hanging out, show dad. Yeah, that's surprise pet. But spring is in the air. It's that time and it thinks, you know, this is when the window when the things that we were fall out. You know, this is the time when prosper this prosper is in the air. There's possibility. You know, something could happen, man. You spit a sunflower seed out of a car window. In four years later, you could have a beautiful damn half a bouquet

right there. Because that's this time of year. There's fertility is in the soil. You could masturbate behind a dam 711. And who knows, but you might show up fucking nine years later. And you got a, you know, a kid that's never been the kindergarten back there. So there's possibility, man. There's, you know, there's possibility for some new things right now. And that's built in. That's built into what the world. That's crazy, isn't it? And then why imagine if you were one of the first people ever, you know, and I don't know who they were. Probably Indians or Native Americans. You know, who knows, man, probably could have been anybody, dude, probably a white guy wearing like a cheetah or, you know,

a couple of brothers out there doing something exotic, bro, doing some wearing some seashells and stuff over their fronts. But imagine you were out there early times and winter happened. You had no idea. You thought things were going well. And then bam, dude, everything's frozen. You're white. You're for everybody. And then bam, again, springtime is back. So that's really something. Could you even imagine the first time at first everybody was like, Oh, man, the world's ending. It's over. I'm cold. You know, Jan, it's frozen. And then bam, boy, they hit you with that surprise springtime, that opportunity for something new. We had some calls that came in. Yeah, what's going on? I'm trying to think about in my world.

You know, I remember I was thinking this week about kissing, you know, when you kiss somebody kissing is when you put your mouth against somebody else. And that's I could only imagine the first time somebody said, Hey, let me know if you feel anything about this. And then they just did it. You know, somebody said, Hey, let me just put my mouth against your face or something or your neck, bro. And see if you feel something. And I wonder if you did it on a, you know, some dude probably started trying on his buddy who was nervous like, Hey, let me try it on you a couple of times. And then I'll run over there to Dorothy, you know. So some guy maybe had a real nice friend and he let him try that. Let him just

try that peck, that peck, just sprinkling that peccaroni all over him, just just kind of nibbling on his neck because you had to practice somewhere. You know, you had to practice kissing. Nobody goes right out there first time and just drops that face onto somebody else. What? Who you Ted Bundy? Dude, you can't do you got to practice. And dude, I remember when I was young, we would get like a pillow, you know, and my buddy, and I'm just going to say his middle name Patrick, he would come over and we would get these pillows, dude, and we would lay next to him and just be like erotic, you know, and our bodies man, my body would get so hard right in the middle, dude. God, I just didn't know what was going

on. And I didn't know that the devil and God were just fighting inside of my penis at the time. And it would just be so and the first time we're supposed to just be kissing our pillows, my buddy would lay over my brother's bed because my brother wasn't living with us and I would lay on my bed. And we're supposed to just be kissing our pillows and pretending they were these girls that we liked. But nine seconds into it, dude, you know what I'm saying? Things have escalated. You know, we go on a second base, third base, fourth base, fifth base, sixth base. You know, then you got Pedro Martinez beating the shit out of Tommy LaSorta. You know what I'm talking about, boy. Young Bucks just, you know, just

vibrating against the pillow, man, just and your body, man, you had so much. My God, dude. I could hotwire a damn, dude, I could hotwire one of those, you know, those little carousels outside of outside of a grocery. I could hotwire one of them bitches with my, with just the vitrosity that was in my damn pecker at the time. And my buddy would come over and we would just practice on them. But then you had to do kissing, you know, like you practice on the pillow, but something wasn't enough. And in Louisiana, it's an oyster country. You know, some certain areas have a different animal. You know, certain places you have a different type of animal. Oregon, you got a little, maybe a woodchuck doing something.

He's over there. You know, he have a toothpick in his teeth. And he's picking wood out of his teeth because he's been chucking it like, dude, this is a real double entendre. And then other places, you know, you go to Spoon River, Illinois, and you got a catfish, that bullhead baby, just swimming. And you know how a catfish happened, man, a cat and a fish, dude. That's why they kind of, you just got to be careful when you got these animals cross pollinate, you know, because it gets too great. If a, let me tell you this, if a falcon and a bumblebee do sex, that's going to be lights out for the rest of us, bro. Imagine a falcon shows up with that powerful ass, baby. That's going to be risky. But I'm saying every place

had a different animal. You got a different animal here. You got a bullhead catfish over there in Illinois. You know, up in Wisconsin, they got that little milk snake. You know, you go down to Nevada, they got a scorpion. You know, they got MS13 down there. You know, you go to Philadelphia, they got Brotherly Love. They got, what else? They got a couple real pasty white dudes in a, um, in a Darren Sprouls Jersey. You know, every place has their animal. And so the animal I'm thinking of, what was I talking about? Oh, so in Louisiana, we had oyster and we would practice kissing, man. We would get an oyster and you get it open, man. And then you got to get it out of there. And I always felt bad taking an oyster

out of his little house, man. I felt kind of bad about that. I remember one time we went over to the Presbyterian church and I told that man, I said, man, we've been taking these oysters out and pretending they were tongues and kissing them, you know? And that dude, honestly, man, I think I had no joke. I remember, I think that preacher told me I was a piece of shit, but he also, I think he kind of winked at me a little bit. So, you know, 50, 50. But, uh, but that was what we would do. We would get that oyster and you'd practice because you could put the oyster in your hand like it was a tongue. And so you'd throw that oyster in the microwave for about 11 seconds and get it warm enough, put it in

your hand and you could practice the kissing. And God, I mean, it wasn't ideal, but it was way better than kissing on your buddy's neck a little. But that was, you remember kissing, practicing kissing. How'd you practice? Hit the hotline. Let me know how you practiced kissing 985-6649-503. Because we practiced a couple of ways, man. My one friend, um, he would come over this boy, Jeremy, and he was born with some different deficiencies, but he'd pop through and we put a bunch of perfume on his neck and then kind of practice kissing a little bit, but not, not gay, not like in a gay way. We'd even put a bag over his head and draw like a woman on the sides of the bag. You know, when you could still

smell the perfume, you could practice, you know, pretend, oh, hey, Katie or hey, Charlotte, you know, hey, Regina, you know, hey, Chondris, what's up. And then you could practice, you know, kissing. But the big thing was to get that oyster and heat that thing up in the microwave for 11 seconds, get that thing, tongue temperature, and then you would practice just, but man, I remember that being young, bro. God, man, and you just, God, you just lay, I remember just laying outdoors sometimes and just, just, just, just thinking about all the women that probably wanted to have sex with me. Oh, Jesus Christ. Anyway, man, we got a lot of calls that, uh, and a lot of those women, most of those women never, never

really did, bro. So, but hey, look, I thought it, man. I thought it. I put the thoughts out there. I planted the seeds out into the universe, baby. It's seeding time. It's spring. Get out there, put something new in the dirt. Try something different. Tell somebody, take a chance, you know? You know, I'm tired of my own life of just, I'm tired of sometimes not taking some chances. I don't take a lot of chances really. Man, I want to take some chances. I want to say, I want to put something in the ground. I want to say, Hey, you know, I'm tired of just rambling out here in the wind. I'm tired of sucking on oysters. I'm ready for some real tongue. You feel me? Gang. Um, let's get it. Let's take a call that

that came out to that. Also, we're going to get a bench for Billy Conforto. Y'all remember him and my friend. God damn, he was a beautiful guy. He had arms like damn fucking, just like Italian antiques, bro. He had beautiful, my God, like his arms came over on a boat from damn Greece or somewhere, somewhere really Italian. He was probably this toughest gay mailboxer in America and the world even. I'd put him up against anybody. Who was the other guy? Tommy Gunn or whatever. Not a chance, boy. Tommy Slingshot. Billy Conforto would put that boy in the sand, whoever he was. We're going to do a bench for him with the funds that we made from the t-shirts that we sold for him. We're going to do a bench

over there in Laplace. Maybe at a dog park or something because he loved those animals. He's always in our hearts, man. I love you, brother. I miss you, man. Gang. We're going to release some, I'll put a, we got a video made or put up on Patreon from that Lafayette show. So you guys will be able to check that out and thank you to everybody who supports this past weekend. And that means you, whether you do it with your ears or by supporting our Patreon or just by or anything. I mean, the support that is being a part of this podcast is one of the things I want to try and focus more on in the rest of this coming year. And sometimes in my own life, you know, just gotten it, I mean, it's a blessing and a curse, you

know, the, because of the podcast and stand up, things getting so busy that it's been hard to focus sometimes on the things that, uh, that mean the most to me, which is being a part of other people's lives, um, or being a part of a group, you know, and I was on stage this weekend and, and I just felt like, uh, I just felt like, man, I'm just so lucky to be part of a group of people that are so loving, you know, the people that come out to the shows, man, especially the, you know, to, to our show, to my show, to the show, to when they come out, the, the staff will constantly say, man, this is the nicest group of people we've had in a long time. And, um, and that's when I just realized that that's

the most important. That's what's just so important to me. And that's what makes me, that's when I feel my best is, you know, there's a lot of dirt, there's a lot of dandruff in the world, but, but just focus for, you know, when I'm focusing on the style, baby, when I'm focusing on that, when I'm focusing on that sweet headpiece and I'm not worried about that dirty dandruff, you know, there's a lot of dandruff, uh, in the world. But I know, um, but there's a lot of sugar too. And I feel better when I've got that sugar on my mind. And, uh, yeah, and just, you know, I just remember, you know, it just, just thank you guys. That is, it's just nice to be reminded of, uh, of what's important and that is, uh,

each other. And, um, and yeah, I just, I'm just so glad to be here today. And I'm glad that, um, that you are here and that we haven't given up on each other, bro. Gang. We got some calls that came in, man. Who knows what's going to be in these dirty boxes. Uh, let's get to a couple right here. Here we go. See you, Vaughn. If this is you, we're going to Toronto to see you for my fiance's birthday right on the 21st. Oh, and thank you for that, brother. Toronto is beautiful. And Toronto, the kind of plays great posture. You see somebody, you barely see them because they're such a straight, perpendicular, you know, uh, straight, uh, vertical people constantly, they're false directly into potholes because they are so,

you know, if somebody has a hurt back or one of their arms out in a weird way, they hit up, they step in a pothole, they get caught. But with that Toronto posture, baby, that's disappearance, son. Disappearing right into the dang birdbath of hell, baby, then potholes and city holes. Gang brother onward. And I have a question. Um, we actually saw you in California in July when I proposed and she developed a crush on you. And I'm worried that when we see you again for a real, lengthy true show, the dark earth to her that she's going to fall in love with you for real, for real hard. And I mean, that's a privilege and an honor, but I mean, I don't know how I'd handle that. So let me know. Anyways,

we'll see you in Toronto on the 21st deal, Vaughn. Take care. Gang brother. And look, I'm not responsible if you're a lady, you know, you show up, you know, you show up with a lady and she leaves and look, you know, and her, her breasts grow two sizes while she's at the show. That's a side effect of seeing Papa. What I'm going to do, you know, I can't help it if, you know, you bring her to the show, y'all leave the show and suddenly she knows a couple of new sexual tricks. You know, y'all go back to the room and she got to wig or something and she got that, you know, she's got on a four piece outfit with, you know, tassels and stuff over the crotch and all that. Look, that's

a side effect, baby. The dark arts, you got to be careful. If you, that's the thing. If you, if you're going to go near a wish and well at night, don't be shocked if you wake up with a little something itching in your ass in the morning, you're filming bruh. Don't be shocked if you, you know, your lady, what, you know, wakes up knowing how to, uh, you know, crochet, um, a, uh, a pentagram. Do not be shocked. It's the dark arts tour, man. And it's still going. Dude, I think in September, October, in October, I believe it'll be two, this tour will be almost two years. We're far from there though. And there's only a few shows left. I keep saying that. But, uh, but yeah, bring your lady out. Come on out. And

I'm excited to see you guys and I'll do my best, brother, to not infiltrate. Um, I'll just infiltrate your heart, brother. And I'll stop right there. 985-664-9503 is the hotline, as always. Let's get to another call or two. Uh, here we go. Hey CEO, it's Ramsey. Um, what's up Ramsey? And that's a name out of the Bible. Ramsey or Egypt. And basically Egypt was just the Bible on land. If you want to look at it like that, you know, the Middle East, they got a lot of San Christians over there too. People think it's just slims over there and, um, in brews, bro, but it ain't. They got a lot of SCs over there, baby, them San Christians. And that is, uh, that's your boy Rams. He's over there. Hot off the Euphrates

dog gang, son. Onward 16, uh, uh, when I was 17, my mom passed away. Uh, didn't really have a fan. I never met my dad or anything. So I'm sorry to hear that, man. I'm sorry to hear that, uh, that that happened to you at such a young age, brother. Onward. I've just been on my own since then. Um, and over, over that period of time, I've been able to like, uh, uh, you know, I've been, I've been having some ups and downs, you know, just because of the instability, but you know, man, things have been going all right. You know, I got a girlfriend at a low and I've got friends around me and it's great. It's great. Uh, but you know, that always gives me worry because my entire

life has been, I've been dealing with, uh, you know, an anxiety of something's about to go wrong. So yeah, I just wanted to know what your, what your, what your thought is on that, you know, uh, uh, how to keep your mind from telling you everything's about to blow up. So let me know, man. I appreciate you gang, gang, gang, bro. Man, it's so funny that you, that you call them. First of all, thank you for calling their Rams. These brother, uh, and it's so funny you call and ask about this because this has been on my mind recently. I've been realizing that I have, you know, and, um, you know, working and I work in, you know, I'm in, I don't work in, I'm in, you know, 12 step program and I always have

to call my sponsor, my friends and just ask them, is everything okay? Cause I don't know there's something inside of me that everything's not going to be okay all the time. And that's why I'm always having to do stuff because everything, nothing feels stable. And so my mind's always like, oh, you better, you got to do this, you got to do this, you got to do this, because something's not, you know, um, so I would just, you know, what's helped me recently is for me, I don't know if this could be work for you, but for me, what has helped is just asking somebody on a regular basis. Hey, is everything's okay? Right. And they just say, yeah, man, everything's okay. I say, okay, cause I have this feeling like everything's not okay. And it's just been there

my whole life. And sometimes I don't even realize it. I don't even know that this thing was there. You know, but, but I'm here to tell you, man, I think a lot of that comes from just the end, like you're saying the instability, just the uncertainty that things, something's going to go wrong. For me, it's not that as much as something is going to go wrong as much as it is that, uh, uh, that something has to be done. That something is wrong. Something isn't done. Something is not okay. And, uh, and it's really an intense anxiety. It's one that's built down into us. It's like somebody had a treasure chest, but no treasure in it, just anxiety. And they put that bias deep in us. And one thing that has helped me is, is talking to my sponsor, talking to my

friends and saying, Hey, just tell me that everything is okay. You know, is everything okay? And they'll answer yes. Sometimes they even get frustrated with it, but I need to hear it. I just need to hear it on a regular basis that everything is okay. Cause I think as a child, just no one told me it was, you know, when everything felt wrong and everything felt messed up and, you know, no one ever said, Hey, everything is okay. No one ever said it. And if you have children, look, I don't have children. You know, I don't know what that's like, but I do know what it's like to, to have been one. And I think, you know, you know, it just, I think it helps them to hear that sometimes just for no reason at all. Just, you know,

just hug your kid and just say, Hey, you know, everything is okay. You know, you know, you might not think it is, or sometimes you may feel like things aren't, but I'm just here to remind you that everything is, you know, I think if they have that voice bouncing around in them, that's the sugar baby. That's not the dander. If you feel me, but thanks for that call, man. And keep your head up out there and gang brother. Let's hit another call here. What's what we got popping off, bro? As always, the hotline [phone]. Thank you. Oh, and don't forget hit the calls with when you, how did you practice kissing when you were young? Did you have, you know, did you,

did you bag up your boy with that gender different sandwich sack over his head? You know, you draw Melanie on the front of that bag and just go to town on your boy. What did you do? Did you practice on a pillow? Get your little oyster? How'd you do it? 985-664-9503. Here we go. Hey, what's up? It's me, Pat, man, from Santa Cruz, California. What's up, Pat? From Santa Cruz. Well, imagine how cool it must be to grow up in a place like that. A place that have crews in the name of it. Could you imagine that? A place that have crews. Dude, I had some friends from a place called big branch. That was the name of the place. Big branch. So, you know what was happening around there, boy? Nothing. Onward.

I woke up this morning and thought I was having a heart attack and basically went to the emergency room and they told me I had scoliosis, man. Was I ever relieved to know that I wasn't numbing my chest because my chicken was back. It was basically born with scoliosis, man. It pinched the nerve and made me feel like I was going to have a heart attack. But I got to tell you what, man. You make me laugh all the time. Caught you in calm comedy. A few months back and dude, praise the Lord, Theo. All right, man. Out. Gang, bro. Now, scoliosis, look, I'm glad you're well and yourself. If you're well enough to leave a voicemail, you're doing all right. Dude, we had a guy when I was growing up and in college, he would get all high. I mean, and by he, I mean all of us.

And we would smoke at all, bro. We'd smoke whatever. That's back when you, they didn't have as much weed. Now they got all kinds of different weed. You know, they got shit. Euthanasia is a strand. They got left leg. They got some shit. You know, kill your cousin is a new strand. Like, what is that? You know, I'm trying to have a family reunion and everybody's got two ounces of kill your cause. This isn't going to end well. But this dude would get so high, man. He had one of his mom had one of those throat things. She couldn't talk or something or not talk, but she'd done so many Winston's that she blew her throat out. So she had to have that little, you know, that thing like the she had to put the thing up to her throat. And he got so high that he would have to use that

bitch. He couldn't talk. So we get his mom's little case, you know, when she was asleep, he'd get the case and he'd bring that thing with them, that little safety case when we would smoke out. So we'd be blazed up, man. I mean, higher than the damn Chicago fire. And this dude, he'd be like, let's hit the, let's hit the Wendy's. That's the only thing he could use was that let's hit the Wendy's. So we knew when he opened that case up that he was baked out. His Oreos was double stuffed, bruh. Oh, man, I need a ride home. He would have to use that little electric thing, bruh. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. But man, if you got scoliosis, how the hell did it take you so long to recognize it Papa?

That's a children's disease. And everybody remembers scoliosis, man. And everybody had a different, you know, remember school when you were young, you had to go to school because nobody trusted you were just maybe going to be smart. And like every four years at school, they would take everybody into the cafeteria and take their shirts off. And I remember the first time I went, I was like, damn, this is some real German type of shit. But and they would have you bend forward and show that little back be easy, baby, that backbone. You know, you'd have to frickin hit that dolphin, bruh. And the lady would stand there. Ms. Wascom or Ms. Connaughton or Ms. Whoever,

you know, Ms. Barbara, she would stand right there. And she would take a marker, man, she would take a marker and just draw it straight down your back. Oh, he's good. This one checks out. You know, he's straight. He could go, you know, back to learning. And then they had like one group, I guess, if you had scoliosis, which I thought it sounded good. They're like, oh, we're going to see who has scoliosis. I'm like, oh, shit. I hope I got it. Dude, I'm sharing a bedroom with my brother. You know, I'm ready for a life change. But but it wasn't. It was like your spine had that little hiccup. You know, your spine got a little wandering in the middle. That shit got a little Hansel, Hansel Gretel. You know, your spine

kind of went missing on itself a little. You know, your spine kind of wandered off into the woods over there by one of your, you know, your spine kind of did a little detour around one of your lungs or something down. And so they do everybody and everybody had that little, you know, had that HOV lane on their backbone and couldn't, you know, hit that dolphin. They draw the little crook on their back with the marker and put them in that special area. I don't know what happened to those kids, man. And Daniel, dude, everybody knows Daniel, bro. He I remember one time he took his shirt off and they had his spine in him. It had the damn, uh, it went in a damn pentagram. But like, well, that he ain't, he couldn't be real healthy. So

but you know, Daniel, man, he's I'm not shocked. He probably shifted his spine into that shape by himself because he's got, he makes his own choices. Man, he made his own choices. But I'm glad that you, I mean, if you had a childhood disease this long, you, I'm glad you're getting on top of it. You might want to get also checked for them. So El Pollo box, baby, them chicken pox and what else? Oh, getting a splinter. That's another thing kids hate. But I'm glad you're well, brother. Stay safe, man.

And, um, I bought a, I bought a, uh,

I bought some cocaine from a guy down there one time and I don't know what happened to him. He did a little bit of pornography and he had, every time I saw him, he had very drastically, um, different haircuts. Onward. Waiting for you to hit up Brian probably just waiting. Let us know when you're gonna, we're gonna give him that hitter quick question. I've been trying to eat healthy and stuff. We had a thought on colosal or pizza and that impossible barrier. I just want to know what it, what a guy like you has to say about those items. Let me. Yeah, thank you for this question there and down there beach side in the OC. Um, cauliflower pizza ain't shit man. That's pizza. It could be anything on pizza. You're only getting four pieces of it, five pieces.

You know, when I was young, they stacked it on there. What do you want on the pizza? Black olives? The pizza was so damn black, man. You didn't even know. You might find it in, you know, at, um, at Essence Fest. You know, they, what you want on there are sausages, two thousand little sausages. Now you get a pizza. They got nine sausages. They set just far enough away from each other so that none of them infringing on the other one's territory. They're all in a safe space. It's like, um, everybody gets the same little amount. It's like basically that Bernie, that's that Bernie Sanders style. Um, so I think if you want to eat healthy, you got to eat healthy, get things that are living, man. Get you a little something, get you a little, um,

you know, uh, have a crab. Look at a, look at a crab, bro. Look at a crab. The meat in that thing so fresh, so nasty, bro, so naughty. Imagine being a crab, dude, and all you want to do is hug somebody, but you got them dangerous ass arms. Imagine that. Imagine every night I bet a crab dreams of just having soft arms where he could touch a, you know, where he could, you know, stroke a woman's hair without giving her a crew cut or where he could, you know, you know, touch her breasts without having to, you know, do a, um, an FAK, a first aid kit. You know, imagine that. Imagine a crab just wishing he had soft arms. And then he wakes up and every time he got those just cold hearted snakes, bro.

Uh, them ice cold freaking clip digits. He's got just carpal tunnel, 7,000 every single time. What was your question, man? I can't even remember what you were asking about cauliflower pizza. Uh, yeah, bro, get you something fresh, get a greenery, get a greenery item, um, get a kale bunch, get a broccoli, get a little warm, you know, uh, sweet potato, get something for yourself. That's good. That's fresh, man. You out here eating pizza impossible burger. Burger is a nice thing to have maybe twice a week. Have you a burger, but the rest of the time take care of yourself. Get some things in you. I'm having a dang roar, organic infused drink right now. Low electrolytes. Keep a lot of water in your body.

It's easy stuff. Your body's 94% water and you out here drinking damn, uh, you know, you out here drinking, um, code reds, mountain dew. What? Get you some water. Oh, but yeah, you got to stay healthy, man. Get you some stuff. That's good. Uh, what I like to do now, get me a peppers. Give me a different peppers. Pepper come in different colors. If you don't like certain color peppers, they make other ones. Get a red, get a green, get an orange, get a yellow. Cat them net chest up. I freaking introduce them bitches to Japan. Boy, I take a knife to them.

You know, I'll take that manscape trimmer to them bitches. Just me and I put me some, uh, some beef cuts in the skillet and heat me up them BCs, baby, throw them peppers in, let them things meet each other. You know, get that proverbial, that little skillet bang going. And then I serve them to myself, treat myself right gang. Let's take another call here. Uh, the hotline [phone] onward. Oh, I gotta, I gotta say, we, we want to have an illegal, uh, alien on the podcast. So if you have a friend who is an illegal alien in America illegally, we're not trying to out them or get them in any trouble or anything like that. We just want to

just see what their life is like. You know, so I'm just real curious about what that existence is like here, what it's like to just be that DL human, you know, not to be confused with DL, Hughley. So if you have, you have somebody like that, let us know. Now don't send us some phony, you know, some, you know, some BS, bro. We want somebody real. They got to speak good English, have a good personality and, um, and they came over here, uh, illegal, illegal into estados unidos. And, uh, and yeah, I'm just super curious about what that life is like, you know, just to be on that constant hide and seek or if it's like that at all. So gang, brother. Uh, here we go onward. Uh, long time listener, first time caller. I've always wanted to say that, uh, big fan of your

show, man. And I seem to revolve around solution. That's kind of what I'm calling about, man. I could use a solution, probably a little off topic and a little random, but, uh, I'm a zookeeper, man. I work with animals and I've been doing this for about 10 years. Wow. Wow. Man, thank you for calling, man. That's crazy. You're like a Jumanji guy. Wow. Boy. Oh man. Thank you for calling zookeeper onward. And, uh, I'm having a hard time finding a place I can stay and make a long story short standards. Uh, I think people got low standards, man. I've worked for roadside zoos. I've worked for big zoos. I've kind of done it all in between aquariums and chains for movies. Oh yeah. Aquarium, that wet zoo, bro. Gang rehab rescue. Uh, but I have a hard time finding a place with good standards.

Oh yeah. Animal rehab. I can't even imagine that you got a couple of gophers in there on the lauderd or something. You know, you got, maybe you might have a muskrat in there who's been scratting too much musk. You feel me? He was on a 80 milligram ox, bro. The emojis gang onward. You think it's a choice to take care of animals and we got to make a choice to be right by them. And too often, I think mistakes happen and I just think some things need a little more structure, a little more rules. We need a little more, everybody just needs to tighten up. You know, these animals are out of mercy. And, um, so I don't know, man, I'm just, I'm thinking about hanging it up and thinking about, uh, the only thing I've ever done is construction. Thinking

about going back construction work. I just don't know what else to do, but I love my animals and I love working with them and it's been a long time to get to where I am and I'd hate to give it up, but I just, uh, I feel like I'm, I'm losing myself. I feel like I'm fiddling with my own morals and my own convictions just to fit in and get along and I don't like that doesn't feel good. So again, I appreciate what you're doing, brother gang, gang, gang man. Wow. Wow, man. Dude, I would love for you to get the, get the proper, uh, you know, me and Brendan Shaw, he, uh, you know, he's from King and the Sting, you know him and he's a decent man and he has very, his hair is very nice. He has nice hair and he has a, um, jewelry and everything, but he and I

almost invested in a zoo down there and sent a lower Cina lower, but, uh, anyway, some shit went wrong, but I would love to see you have your own zoo and have you to have you see you be the example. You be the one that do that does it because that's really where, uh, you know, change kind of comes from is that it's like, yeah, nowadays everybody wants, you know, they had a special on television, black sheep, not black sheep, but black dolphin and they had a killer whale down there in, um, down near San Diego. And I guess that a black dolphin as well. And I guess it was, I don't know if it was about slavery. I don't know what it was about, dude. You got to watch it, but everybody's like, oh, they're treating animals bad and they're treating animals like this. Look,

it's hard to treat an animal great, I think, especially with all the laws and everything. You know, everything keeps getting haywire. Some lady, you know, some lady's little son falls in the damn zoo cage and then they file the lawsuit. Well, what's your son doing in there? How about that? So the lawyering and all the legalities ruin a lot of things, brother. But that's when somebody comes along and says, I'm going to do this the right way. And then the lawyering comes along and says, I'm going to do this the right way. And that could be you. You know, you could have Terrence's little magical zoo at the, uh, you know, it could be zoo and ice cream or something, you know, pet you a koala and get a rocky road. You know what I'm saying? Tickle a

real Elmo and then get you that mint chocolate chimpanzee. You could have, you know, you could, you could mix and match. So I think there's an opportunity there for you to then do something special whenever the, you know, it's tough though, sometimes also when your art or something you really enjoy, when it becomes a job at a certain point, it does burn you out. It burns you out, man. There's such a balance to everything in there. Man, it's when the art becomes such a job, it can get burned. It can burn you down. You know, I feel exhausted sometimes from, uh, you know, work out so busy that sometimes I feel exhausted. You know, sometimes I feel, well, I need my passion back. You get caught up too much in

the X's and the O's and you forget the smell of the grass, you know. And that's how I think we, you know, you have to, you have to find a way to represent it to yourself or get you a little animal, get you a lemur, bro, get you a little marmoset, get you with something, dude, get you six caterpillars and, and do something, um, you know, get nine crickets and train them bitches to do a stunt. You know, get a circus mouse, dog. One quality mouse with a jingle bell on his neck. And you out there green myelin, baby boy. And you know what I'm saying? Dude, they used to have a cat circus that parked around here. My ex-girlfriend was always showing me on

the YouTube, a cat circus. And two of them, they finally went on Jimmy Kimmel and didn't do shit and they got fired. But they had nine cats living in a purple van doing nothing. You know, and so anything's possible. But I feel you, man, when it's, maybe you just have to step away, maybe get you one animal and hit the road with it. You know, Marcus is special, uh, Marcus and his special Beagle. You know, the supernatural, uh, the supernatural art. And you don't want to say with social media these days, you could advertise in a lot of special ways. People are doing everything. You could go sleep with the, um,

sloth. They got sloth sleeping. They got sloth sleeping over there. And all your valuables are safe because it'll take that thing about an eight hours to steal your phone because it's so slow. But you could sleep with a sloth. You go up in there and they got this little cuba Kyle, you and your buddy in there and you'll go sleep with a sloth if you want for 200 over there outside of Portland. But there's a lot of different opportunities, man. A lot of ways to, to make animalia more comfortable. And I think a lot of these things are going to change, man. Go to Texas. You do. You, you meet the right neighbor. They'll have a damn tiger in Texas. They'll have two white tigers out there. There's a lot of different stuff going on.

But good luck out there, daddy. Uh, and if anybody has any suggestion for the zookeeper to how to, how to stay in the animal game, even if you're, you know, you're kind of quacked out, hit the hotline, 985-664-9503.

Thank you for supporting. And also we got this rat King hitter. I'm wearing it right now. We got a lot of neat stuff out there. Rat King, uh, t-shirt that I really love that my brother wears a lot. I see him wearing on Facebook and really means a lot to me that he wears it. I know he, I mean, because he's businessman and, and, uh, and it's the year of the rat, baby. You know, I'm making that comeback.

All these clams, dude. I'll see him in the chowder, baby. I was raised kissing Oyster's son. Let's go. Yo Theo, this is Austin. I need some advice. Every time me and my girl order takeout, she finds something wrong with her food, whether it's a hair or something doesn't look right. And she ends up making me take it back. So, oh, yo, here's a, uh, uh, it's, dude, if you got a sense, uh, let's hear more. Should I just not feed her? Let her eat my scrap or do I just eat too fast and this other stuff is in my food. Man, look, I think there's nothing I can't stand more than somebody who sends their food back all the time. Unless that thing came with, you know, I say two hairs or more, one hair, I'll have it,

but a sideburn, I'm sending that bitch back. You know, Latondra got one of them Rapunzel braids in there. I'm sending that bitch back, but one hair, two hair, red hair, blue hair, you know, somebody dropped half an antifa wig and that thing. I'll still have it. I'll still have it. You know, life is life. Things are going to happen. But if you have somebody that's sending food back, I'm just saying how will they one day just send you back? Maybe she finds a hair on your shoulder. Maybe she finds an ingrown hair. Who's is this? Huh? Like that's mine. Whatever. I'm out. So you got to think about, you got to think about that, man. I can't stand that. For me, that's a buzz kill. If it happens once in a while,

if the service is bad or something. Yeah, I could see raising hell. I went over to a pizza place, man. I swear. If I'd have had a bread on me brought a popped off in that bench. The guy was a complete asshole in there. But I'll let the world do justice to him. I don't need to do all that. But if you got an incel like that living in your place, bro, and sending back decent pies because maybe one of the pepperonis looks like it's winking at her or something, or somebody carved a Jesus Christ into the cheese or something. Gee, gee, burrs, bucko. You better than that, bro. But good luck out there, man. That's all I got for you, dude. I got to be honest with you, gang. What's up, Theo? This is Max Frost calling in from Sydney, Australia. Oh, Max Frost from

Australia. Thank you for calling, man. And after all that fire, you guys could use Max Frost. I mean, you're exactly the solution over there, I bet, man. I hope everybody's doing well. It's crazy. Like, you know, we see a million pictures of koalas, you know, starving and using water and stuff. And then suddenly it's off the radar. But, um, but just letting you know, man, thinking of you hope you guys are doing well, gang, onward. Obviously, I'm not from Sydney, Australia. I'm actually from Texas. I'm down here right now doing some shows. Are you just a visitor? That's called a visitor, buddy. Onward. One of the reasons I'm calling, man, is, um, I'm down here and living my life, you know, I make music and down here playing shows and have a show tonight that,

I guess, was good. But I guess I just kind of called in to say, like, I don't know, there's something about that voice you talk about where you say, like, whenever you get off stage, it's like your brain won't allow you to accept that you did a good job. There's just something about that I really relate to, man, and that I fucking, I wish I could solve, you know, I hate showing up to do what I came to do and then getting off stage and feeling like, like, even though I did it, it's like, I can't allow myself to appreciate that it's happening, which is stupid. Shit, man. That's it. Hope you're good, bro. Game, game. Game, bro. Thank you for calling, man. Um, yeah, man. Wow, bro. Okay. Yeah, it's, you know, one of the reasons, I mean, I've done it my whole life, man,

nothing. You know, I'll never be good enough for me, man. And I don't know how that happened to me. I don't know how that, you know, I don't know how that got inside of me, but man, that's a devilish thing to end up inside of you. And I'm not saying that to have any self pity, you know, I'm at the age now, I'm able to recognize it and I could do things to help myself, but, but, um, you know, it gets hard on the podcast sometimes because it's hard for me to reflect on myself without sounding like a cry baby a lot. You know, I don't want to have self pity, um, but I do want to be able to share what I share things, share something if I can, you know, um, but no, man, it's crazy that out that, uh, isn't that crazy that somehow we will

never be enough for ourselves? Man, it's such a, it's such a handicap, isn't it? It's such a, and it's not true. It's not even real. I don't know how that engine gets started inside of us. I'm trying to think about it and feel about it right now. Why am I never enough for myself? You know, I will never be enough for myself. Why? Why? Why am I never enough for myself, man? I'm just trying to feel, I'm trying to, sometimes I can almost feel an answer like inside of me, but I don't know what the words are because the feeling hasn't met with my brain exactly. So I'm just trying to feel this out. You know, why?

Yeah. How nice it would be to have something inside of myself that's like, Hey, you man, great job. Hey, you did great. Hey, you should be proud of yourself. Hey, you should. Hey, man, where'd it go? Because when you think about it from the outside, from an outsider's perspective, how, how sad that somebody's walking around, they will never be enough for themselves, that their best will never make them feel good. It doesn't sound like that. It sounds like there's something off there because it's not real. It doesn't factually check out. You know, sometimes I think some of that is the, there's the, is the toil of being an artist. You know, there's something inside of people that want to do art or that you, I think you

want some of that because it drives you. It makes you adjust and change. It makes you change. It makes you, it makes you keep pressuring to create something good. You know, you don't want to just play some garbage and be like, Oh, that's great. But I think sometimes for myself, that voice is a, it's in a, it's everywhere in me that I'm never going to be enough. You know, I got the legs of a, you ever seen a senior citizen drop their towel on accident and you see their legs? That's what I have though. I have like those type of legs, but if that man was like a striker and like a, like had like was but strong, I have like strong dropped towel, senior citizen legs.

Yeah. But it's always everything I see about myself. It's never enough. It's never good enough. And I don't know if, no, I don't think anyone ever told me that I was bad. I think just nobody ever told me that I was okay, that everything was, that it was enough, you know. Oh yeah. Oh yeah, man. You're, yeah, that's good, you know. Okay. That's, you've been, you know, and those are things that happen when we're young. It has to happen when we're young, but when we get old, you know, we can start to plant some different seeds, man, to bring this back here. You know, and we can start to do, we can start to recognize it. You know, and I'm glad you called about this because I think it'll just make me think when

I get off stage or when I get done with this, when I get done with my work day, anybody out there, if you're driving FedEx or you making a, you know, you doing beef scallions or whatever, you a butcher, you a barber, you doing sideburns or you doing siding construction. Yes. Like when you get done, it's like, you know, I did good to remind ourselves, you know, that we did good. If we did, if we did try, if we did try our best, you know. Yeah, I don't know, man, it's really interesting now. It's really interesting why somehow we're never enough for ourselves, man. And I think that's like the core of whatever it is, if we could solve that in humans.

And some of that's always going to be there because there's this, you know, that's why people look for a higher power. That's why people seek. That's why people travel. That's why people, you know, start families because they want to, they want to fill in. Because in the end, humanity, being human, it's a, it's just, it's a journey of finding more. At least I hope it is for people. Maybe some people are just perfectly happy and they're already, you know, they were born on the pinnacle of peace. But I think for a lot of us, it's trying to find out what's going on. How do we, what do I do? What can I do to feel more, to find more, to achieve, to try to, what is here in this world on the outside and on the inside?

But, you know, where's the Mount Everest, you know, out here outside of me and where's the Mount Everest inside of me? Where's the, where can I go in here? Because man, it gets wild inside of us. It's deep in there and it's high and it's far. So I think some of that's just the toil of being an artist man. And I think some of it is, it's a journey that we're on. You know, what some of it is that we're too hard on ourselves and that we're doing okay. You know, the best thing I sometimes I can say for myself is always just that I tried my best. But yeah, that's good, man. I want to think about that more for myself and not think about it. I just want to start to behave like it. Hey, man, you did a good job. Oftentimes I don't want to do it

because I don't want people to think that I'm full of myself. It's, I think sometimes it comes back to I'm worried so much about what other people will think maybe. I don't want people to think that I'm so full of myself. But thank you for that call, man. And thank you for that question. And keep on playing the hits, man. We got a Patreon question that came on, that came in. Tony, T-O-N-I. Could be Tony, could be Tony. Favorite TV show currently. I really love The Pharmacist on Netflix. And I want to see about maybe having that gentleman come in as a guest. It's really a great show. I really love Live PD. And if you haven't seen Live PD, man, it's great. It's like cops. Cops actually is really good, too. It's just like new cops. I like Flinttown

on Netflix. I like, what else? Jim Gaffigan's was on, he has a special on Amazon that's really good. And those are things, I guess, that I'm currently watching. There's a new date line, too. That's crazy good about two, some people that have two children that people that they can't find yet. It's in Idaho. That shit is good. And I don't want more people to die in the world, but we need some more date lines. Boy. Speaking of Idaho, here's one. Are California kids that bad? Does Idaho need to build a wall? And that's from Kim Chickens from Patreon. You know, I don't think California kids are bad, man. There's bad people everywhere. You know, there's a lot of great people in California. There's a lot of wonderful people. I think the taxes are way too high. I

think that they are too. I think that it's too idealistic. I think the ideas of a perfect humanity are starting to collide with the realities that we can't do all of this. We don't, or we just aren't. You know, it's like, I mean, the parks are getting busier. I was just looking at a park yesterday. I was going to look for a park to just chill out. And I went to a park and I'm like, man, this isn't even a place you can relax anymore. You know, there's, you know, there's a lot of people who are, you know, you know, I don't want to just say homeless, but not well and people that are doing drugs. And I know some of those people are my people. I get it, bro. You know, they're rats like me, you know, but it made me scared to just want to take a nap

in the park because I don't want to get killed during a sleeping. So, um, so I think you have some of that shit. I think you got more of a soft batch overall. You know, and I put that up, you go SEC against the pack 10, dude, pack 12, pack 20, pack it up as much as you want. They'll never take the SEC, man. Um, but I just think some of its city living is different. So I think maybe Los Angeles is, uh, it's just a tough place. It seems like to raise kids to have, you know, every, every street is a busy street. There's no space for a child's imagination. I don't feel like, you know, a child needs to be able to look out at some space and be like, Oh, what could happen here? Um, so it's probably a great place to like raise an accountant.

But is it a great place to raise somebody with a wild imagination? I don't know. I don't think it would be my ideal place. Gang. Um, let's take, uh, I think we did good today. I think we did good. Oh, well, here's one right here. Actually, one more patron from Cigarja, JHA. Theo, what's the best part about spring gang gang? I think the best part about spring is it's just kind of a reminder of what every day is. You know, every day is a new chance. It's that, you know, every day is a silver medal. You know, every day is saying, Hey, if you didn't, if it didn't happen yesterday, if you didn't do it right, if you didn't do it as well as you wanted to, it's really a real soft way of saying, here's another opportunity.

You know, here's another shot today. And it really, the way that the, that the world even presents a day to you is really so beautiful, you know, slow sunrise, the light slowly gathers. Wouldn't it be crazy if just bam, they cut it on as florescent as fuck. Just felt like an ICU or something. Just, that would be so drastic. But the way that nature says, Hey, I'm here, you're here, let's see what we could do. The way that nature does that with just a day, I think is beautiful. And spring, I think is like that. And I do think there's some value to live in a place that where you have four seasons, because you, you remember that you're part of earth, you're part of this, you're part of life, whereas

sometimes in California, it's just the same day forever. It just never ends, man. So I think the best part about spring is just as a chance to put something new in the ground, you know, to try something different. You know, it's crazy. All the things sometimes that I feel like I've recently have been feeling is that the things that I, it's crazy. Somehow the things that I fear the most are sometimes recently the things that are starting to tempt me the most. Like, what if I just did those things? You know, what if I just got me a house or got me a

wife or got me a, or not got me one, you got to really have love and everything, but, you know, got me a dog. What if I did all those things? I don't know. I don't want to let my life just pass by me just being in this fear state or this place of indecision. Sometimes I feel like the best feelings I could have are right on the other side of my fears, you know. And that's wild, man. That's wild. But what do I know, dude? I don't know anything. And that, that is the fact. I'm going to probably call better help. Look, I love you guys and I appreciate you. And thank you for being a part of this past weekend. And we do have exciting plans to do some unique things for people this year and be a part of

people's lives. And just, I'm just excited to remind myself to get back to what I think is important sometimes. And what is unique sometimes is podcast about this podcast is that it's a group effort and that we're doing something not alone. And that to me feels good, man. And that's, that's the sugar, bro. That's the sugar, man. We'll finish out here with this hit again from tiny sand who sent it in and that magical man from the ether. What is he? We don't know. He could be a puff of smoke. He could be a ninja. He could be a czar. He could be a marsupial. He could be a plate, one of the tectonics underneath us. We don't know. Who knows, man. But he makes sweet music more than words, man. I'm out of words. You guys be good to yourselves.

You deserve it, gang. Thank you.
