Five, four, three, happy two, one.
Slimity, snap, snap, snap.
Slimity, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap.
Be the bop-bop-boot-a-bada.
Be bop, be the bop-bop-boot-a-bada.
Be bop, candy, lolly-bop.
Be bop.
The 50s will have the best music.
The 50s, they talked about pure things.
Do-wop.
Do-wop, they talked about getting together.
They talked about dancing, right?
And now it's all negative.
Music today is all about,
I'm gonna kill your temples with my fucking gun.
Whoa, what song is that?
I don't know.
I know, but like, you know, I shred it.
Shred your pussy.
Jiggle the butt.
Jiggle, you know, and then...
Jiggle the butt.
Yeah, yeah, and then they wear a fan.
They have these hipsters, they have fancy mustaches.
They go out into the desert and they go to...
Coacholo.
Coachella.
Whatever, Coachella.
And they hit on girls.
They give them drugs, purple pills.
What's the purple pill?
Right?
And then they pass out and they do a little jiggly jig.
Jiggle the butt.
Jiggle the butt.
And then they feel great for a weekend.
But then, boom, they have to go back to Best Buy.
Oh.
They don't even work there.
They just wander the hall.
They don't work there.
They don't even work there.
Yeah.
I mean, so, you know, I don't go to the desert.
I don't do Coachella.
You don't jiggly jig?
I don't jiggly jig.
I don't do wop.
You know, but I wish I remember the old days.
The 50s.
Those are the good days.
Remember?
I had a dream too, Richie.
Oh, yeah.
It's not La Bamba.
Remember La Bamba?
La Bamba.
It's La Bamba.
Yeah.
His brother.
Lou Diamond.
I had a dream too, Richie.
Wait.
What's the actor that plays Lou Diamond's brother?
Esai Morales, bro.
Yeah.
He was so hot.
Yeah.
Esai Morales played Richie Valens' brother in the movie La Bamba.
And I remember, and he was a cartoonist in it.
Right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Richie Valens made it.
And he goes, I have a dream too, Richie.
And he cried.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I really touched him.
Lou Diamond is part Filipino, right?
A fourth.
Oh, that's it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Bobby was trying to tell me the other day he was like, yeah, Koreans, you know, we
have the best UFC fighters.
Like, who do you have?
And I was like, um...
More news.
We have Robbie Lawler, John Dodson.
Yeah, but you guys are naming, and my argument is, is you're naming half breeds.
It's like when they say, Rob Schneider is Filipino.
He is.
Yeah.
But Izzy...
I think he's Jewish.
Izzy.
But Izzy though.
Yeah, yeah.
He does it.
He's not full.
All right.
It's like Tony Thornbrook, the model.
He's half Chinese.
But Izzy...
Izzy.
No.
He's its own creation.
Hybrid.
Hybrid.
So I was asking what full blood in Filipino.
We have Foliang, who fights at one UFC.
Foliang?
He's a champion.
Yeah.
We have a lot of people at one UFC.
One of the arguments that you made is, is that you have the best fighter in the world.
Manipacow.
Manipacow.
So you win there.
Yeah.
Okay?
You win.
He finds every avenue to like shit on my people.
No, no, no.
Here's the thing.
And this is what I wanted to talk about.
I forgot.
Because I read a comment on Instagram and it says, does Bobby Lee hate white people?
And I go, I really broke my heart when I read it.
Because I embraced them.
I love them.
I would be, I would be nowhere without them.
They're my comrades in the war of life.
Key word comrades.
They're my comrades.
They're your equals.
My equals.
They're not your bosses.
They're not my bosses.
No.
We're equals.
Okay.
I love your people.
The Philippines.
No, no.
I'm telling you right now.
I really do.
Without you guys, I would be nowhere in life.
In fact, I want to say that about every race.
Mexicans, we'd be nowhere without you.
Blacks, nowhere without you.
We're all one.
I'm a good guy.
And I know when people say that I'm a good guy, out loud, that means that they're not
a good guy.
But I'm just acknowledging the fact that I'm aware of that, right?
So I am a good guy.
Okay?
Okay.
And two years ago, I helped a retard across the street.
Oh.
What happened?
It was a midget.
That's not a...
They're physically retarded.
That's some flow.
Yeah.
That's fine.
Whatever.
I helped them.
Yeah.
I'm a lawyer.
I'm a lawyer.
What are you doing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was Peter Dinkins.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'd probably help you across the street if I saw you.
Yeah.
I have little legs too.
Yeah.
That's why I relate to them.
Your proportions are a little strange.
But I love the blind.
Okay.
The blind people are good.
I love the deaf.
They're good too.
I love all.
I love all people.
And when I see movies with horrific things, like grenade babies and Vietnam movies.
I don't know what those are.
The little babies just, you know, they used to put the con.
What do they call them?
Vietnam.
Vietnam.
The con.
Yeah.
They used to put little grenades in their mouths.
Is this a valid historical information?
And they used to crawl in the villages and blow them up.
What?
When I see that in movies.
When I see it in movies.
I think that's a figment of your deep imagination.
It might be.
Because that just sounds awfully...
Training babies to hold grenades and crawl.
No, I don't believe that.
I don't believe any...
Well, they maybe have them in a carriage and they throw them in.
I don't know what it is.
I think you dream shit up, Bobby.
Maybe I dream shit up.
But if I do see that, if I did see that, I would be heartbroken.
When I see, like, I know you don't like this word.
And I know you don't like the word.
It's your face.
I don't know what the word is for your face.
I know you don't like this word.
And this is really from my heart.
So I have to say it.
Okay.
I fucking hate rape scenes in movies.
Oh yeah, I told him he wasn't allowed to talk the R word anymore.
Like, when I see a rape scene in a movie, I have to turn it off or fast forward.
He has to pause so he can nut in his pants.
You know, that's...
You know, that right there, when you said that like that, that's really rude.
I was against my spiritual, you know, being.
You know what I mean, Gilbert?
No one's going to crucify you for thought crime.
There's no such thing.
I know.
But anyway, so that white person just, that white person said that does Bobby Lee like
like, yes.
Yes, he does like white people.
I love, I love.
He doesn't hate you guys.
I love everyone.
I have another thing I found on Instagram comment, which I found particularly amusing.
And I have to bring it up.
What?
Okay.
So this guy wrote you.
He says, Bobby Lee.
Ronda Rousey and me are huge fans.
But your comments about her coach and Ronda were out of line.
We love your comedy, but you should stay away from fight strategy because it was disrespectful.
Me and Ronda and Ed are looking forward to attending your live podcast.
But an apology would be great to fix the issue because.
Okay.
Okay.
And so I was like, this person is not real.
And then.
But I checked his site.
Yeah.
And Ronda follows him.
Yeah, yeah.
They're friends.
He's part of the camp.
Like for, in my opinion.
I'm sorry.
No.
I'm sorry.
No, don't be sorry.
Your opinions are your opinions.
Right.
My, my thing is that's not a good look for her.
I think she would be perturbed that a friend of hers would write that.
Yeah.
I don't think that she would co-sign with that.
With, with that at all.
You're, you know, it's a.
She's a revolutionary kind of a person without her.
There would be no women's MMA.
And she is a legend.
And also, I think here's what I always think.
Like you can have a lot of fighters say, Oh, you know, she wasn't a good sport or we know
exactly how she feels.
No one knows how Ronda Rousey feels to be in her position.
It was a very unique position to be the first female face of that sport in such a big way.
Not it.
No, no GSP.
John Jones could even relate to being a woman and being in the spotlight like spotlight
like she was.
So I don't think it was an easy spot and I think it's easy to shit on her, you know,
because she's lost.
But I think she's, you know, I don't think that you should apologize though for your
comments.
I think that person's a little bit.
I'm sorry.
You really are.
Yeah.
Your prediction was correct though.
Amanda Nunes.
I picked wrong.
Yeah.
I, I'm sorry.
I maybe was a little hostile.
I'm a fan.
And please don't come to my live podcast.
Sir, please don't come to our live podcast.
Rhonda can come.
But this guy may be not.
It's fine.
You're always welcome.
What?
You just said don't come.
I mean, don't come.
Don't come.
Don't come.
Don't come.
Okay.
Don't come.
She can come.
She can come.
And I want to say something to the writers in the LA and the studios and all that.
Work that shit out.
Oh, is there another strike?
Yeah.
There's a strike looming.
Work it out, please.
Gosh.
Because let me tell you something right now.
All right.
Come on.
I'm going to do this right now.
What?
If you're a pilot and if the writer strike can happen, I'm going to lose this fucking pilot.
Okay.
And then I might indirectly kill a writer or producer.
Allegedly.
Allegedly.
Allegedly thought crime.
Thought crime.
I wouldn't never kill anybody.
I physically wouldn't be able to do it.
I can't believe this is happening now.
You're career.
It's fine.
So what's on our agenda today?
Well, I want to talk about.
I'll tell you what my agenda is.
There's a couple of movies I saw as of recently.
Okay.
I'd like to talk about.
Okay.
The first one I saw is a movie called Split with Ewan McGregor.
What's his name?
James McAvoy.
James McAvoy.
He's good though.
They're both good.
Yeah.
Ewan wasn't in it.
He was not in it.
No.
So here's my opinion about that movie.
Okay.
I'm watching it.
About an hour in, I push pause, I look at Kalilah and I go, yeah.
I'm not into it.
Oh, spoiler alert.
The spoiler is coming.
No, you know what?
I won't even do the spoiler.
Oh, okay.
I won't even do the spoiler.
That's a change.
Okay.
And then like 30 minutes in, I was like, yeah, for sure.
This is not good.
And then the end happened.
A switch.
A surprise.
I've never seen a movie where I went 180 like that.
Were it till the very end?
It was like, I was lukewarm about it.
Like, I don't, you know, and then when I saw the ending, I looked back at what I saw and
I go, that could have been the best movie of the year.
Oscar.
I mean, I literally, when I saw the ending of it, I pushed pause.
I put my hands over my face because I thought it was going to weep and I crawled over to
my side and I went, oh my God, I can't believe it.
And then I, a couple of days later, I texted Steve, my brother, because my brother had
seen it in the movie theater and my brother goes, that was the hardest thing to do.
What?
What the ending was?
Like, he had to like, he had to like meditate and pray about not telling me, because I remember
him watching the movie that I go, that movie can't be good, but Bob, the ending's good.
He said, I go, no, it can't be.
There's no way.
But Bob, and he was going to say it to me then, but he's disciplined for the first time
in his life.
Wow.
Yeah.
So, um, they had that movie was the most surprising ending I've ever seen and it was
really a good.
I liked it.
Then I saw another movie.
What's it called?
Oh, is it the Herbalife one?
Yeah.
Oh, it's called betting on zero.
It's, it's, you know what it's about?
Herbalife.
No, I don't know what Herbalife, I didn't know what it was.
I'd seen like jerseys like, you know, that LA Galaxy has Herbalife on their jersey sponsors.
Yeah.
And they have, um, Chelsea had it on their jerseys.
And it's, it's a pyramid scheme.
It's like a multi-level business.
Yeah.
A lot of Mexicans, a lot of Mexicans got fucked.
Yeah.
So basically the documentary, it's more than just that the documentary sort of goes into
the fact that, um, Herbalife targeted undocumented, um, said, uh, undocumented people to basically
put all their money into a business that wasn't going to get them and they weren't going to
get the money back.
It was a fucking pyramid scheme because they were completely on the bottom rung of everything.
And these people put like hundreds of thousands of dollars into it of their own mattress money.
Cause I mean, these are undocumented people and they couldn't even go to like the federal
trade commission or like complain because they were undocumented.
And a lot of people were getting very rich off the backs of these like poor citizens.
So basically it's that, but it's more than that.
Cause there's this guy, that guy, Bill Ackerman.
Yeah.
And then Carl Icahn.
I don't want to like spoil it.
But I wanted to say this is when you have a business that you make your income based
on recruitment and not the actual product, right?
That's right.
It's, it's a pyramid scheme.
Yeah.
And these Mexicans, right?
Cause you come to this country, right?
And you're like, all right, so what's the point?
There was a tunnel change in your voice.
I tried to do an accent.
I was trying to, but not halfway, but now I'm self aware of it.
So now I can't do it.
So let me just start over.
Okay.
So I'm a Mexican and I'm thinking about, he tried, he tried.
So yeah.
What is the Mexican?
So I have to order all these products and then, but in order for me to make money is
I have to, 10 people have to join and they have to be below me, sign up under me, right?
And then those 10 have to sign another 10.
But imagine coming to this country, you know, 20 people, half of it's your family.
So you're like, you get your family involved and all your friends, but then they're under
the pressure of like trying to get other people.
And then it just causes resentment and anger.
And not only do you lose money, but you lose family and friends.
I just pyramid schemes in general.
It's a genius guy.
If you're in the first top three, you know what I mean?
If I joined Herbalife in the beginning, maybe I wouldn't be complaining about it.
You know what?
And that's true.
I mean, 10,000 people below me, I'm like, yeah.
We have a friend whose parents are really high up in Amway and essentially it's the
same thing, right?
It's like a multi-level type of company and they're on the top tier of it.
They're like what you call like the equivalent of Herbalife's president's thing.
They're in the diamond.
And so they, my friend's parents are wealthy, but they, that's really not how it works.
If you're joining at the very end of it all, you know?
So if you're going to join a pyramid scheme, join in the beginning.
Yes.
Don't wait until like five years later.
Five years or 10 years later, right?
Because then you're like, you know, a part of the masses.
I mean, I had a lot of friends a couple of years ago that were selling a lot of Herbalife
products, you know?
And I always thought to myself that that seems like a waste of time.
But a lot of them did it.
And I'm so glad I never got suckered into that.
It just seems silly.
It's also, it's like, I know where to go to get my like nutrition, you know, in LA,
we've got a lot of little startup juice places, right?
I like, I like, um, what's a BK, um, and probiotic drink, probiotic drinks, you know,
that probiotic BK, a bio-K bio-K.
Yeah.
Why did you look at me like I was like, you were like, yeah, but you're like, oh, we've
been dating for four years.
You should know the secret.
You should also bio-K, but obviously, obviously, right?
Yeah.
Like, I know what E3 live is.
It's an algae.
Uh, you're just trying to fucking show off your fancy terms.
If I didn't know what E3 live is, like I'm a lesser human being when you say, what is
it?
What is it?
It's algae.
It's algae.
Thank you for asking.
Oh, it's because he's trying to get us George.
It's a pyramid scheme.
I generally don't know.
Yeah.
E3 lives algae.
They're found in like these lakes in Washington or whatever, and they scoop it up.
Not just Washington all over the world, but I get mine from Washington.
She likes to organically source.
What is your problem right now?
Everything I'm saying, you're against.
You're provoking me.
You know, don't provoke me.
I'm just saying that, like, you know, if I want, like, you know, a protein drink, I know
where to go.
Yeah.
Right.
So what's this other shit?
Herbalife shit.
Herbalife is powders.
I don't even know if the product itself is good.
I'm not sure.
Yeah.
I've never heard of it.
I've never had it.
Had it or.
So what happened?
It was the story goes even deeper because then my sister and I were like, oh my God,
doesn't my ex sell Herbalife, so I have an ex herself Herbalife.
So and Bobby's like, does he?
So we go into his account and then we go into his girlfriend's account and we're looking
at it like 52 weeks ago, going that deep to look if she sells Herbalife and we found out
that she does and I accidentally double my sister actually double tapped.
And then she knows you like their photo.
Yeah.
Now I like my ex's new girlfriend's Herbalife photo, which is like 52 weeks old.
It was fucking crazy.
And I wanted to do my sister and I almost fucking got into it because I couldn't unlike
it after that.
It's like, that's just weird.
She's notified and now they're talking about it.
Yeah.
Why did Clila do that?
But also I dug that far deep into it.
That's pretty strange.
Yeah.
And of all the pictures to like, it was an Herbalife photo because I wanted to feel good
about myself.
I'm like, oh, this bitch sells Herbalife.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is the bitch sells Herbalife.
So I got that confirmation.
I was like, oh, she's a nothing.
You saw Herbalife.
Just keep working hard.
You'll get to the top.
But then my sister double tapped and it's just awful now.
Oh, yeah.
You know, it's tricks in this world.
People just want to get ahead and make money and they take advantage of people.
Yeah.
It's really sad.
But I want to talk about this business, Tiger Belly.
This business is growing slightly.
Slightly.
It's a good word now.
I mean, put out some work into it and there's some payoff a little bit and but it's still
difficult for me to even talk to people about it really.
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
Like the other day, I was in a room in the main that I was in the green room backstage
at the main room and I saw Joe Rogan and Bill Burr were back there.
You say hi.
But in my head, still, especially with those two, there's a thing in my head is like, I
don't belong here.
You know, I'm just in my head.
It has nothing to do with reality.
It's just a little tape recorder that I press play when I'm around certain people and you
just can't see through you, you know, that you're not legitimate, you know.
But then you like, hey, you know, you hug him or whatever, and they're happy to see you
or whatnot.
But I can't get myself to go come do my podcast because you're just never going to be that
type of person who asks ever, ever, ever.
You're just not that.
We've asked you like you've had people in front of you say, hey, Bobby, let me do your
podcast and you said, OK, and then I remind you, hey, sweetie, text so and so who wanted
to do our podcast.
I can't ask.
They asked you first and you can't even ask him back.
Yeah, because there's a there's a there's an expiration date on that.
Oh, OK, yeah.
If you don't do it, OK, so if they do it one week, like you're talking about Stephen
Noon.
Yeah, Stephen Noon.
Just fucking say it then, lady.
He said, I'd be happy to do your podcast and you were like, cool.
And then you just never hit him up again to ask.
Because it's inspirations, expiration date.
And also I don't ever want to seem like I'm needy.
OK.
You mean like, I need you to do it, please?
The only reason why Jordan worked was because he had texted me the night before, right?
And he was like, he alluded to the fact that maybe he would want to do our podcast.
So it was like a window that was completely open to me.
But here's also I'm also very close to him where we were, you know, so I know him.
But like what Stephen Noon is like, you know, he knows my brother and David and stuff.
But and I whenever I see him, it's very pleasant.
I really like the kid.
He's a talented kid and he's nice.
It's just that I just don't know him the way I know certain people.
That's all.
Yeah, but it's you.
You also you have to also think of it as we don't need anyone in this podcast ever.
We do just find, you know, just the four of us.
But so you have to think about it that we don't need these big people.
We want to have them because he is Korean.
He is relevant.
He is going to have the types of conversations that we like to talk about in the podcast
about being a minority and stuff like that and being in the industry.
Those things are things we'd like to talk about.
I understand that.
And I'm going to make you a promise, guys.
And I promise I have a feeling that maybe if things go well that this pilot that I did
got gets picked up, okay?
I do.
I'm only mentioning it, mentioning it is because at that point, I would feel like I have more
power to do it, to call Eric Stone Street and go, Hey, can I do it?
Can I also ask you a question regarding that?
I feel like I need to get invited into the club.
I don't think you'll ever feel ready for that.
No, you're very self, you know, how do you say it?
Like you, I think even if you were at the very top of the game, you're always going
to feel that little voice, you hear that little voice in your head that tells you you're not
in the club.
You're just that person.
No.
Stop.
I've been to the club.
You got kicked out the club?
Yeah, I got kicked out of the club.
What club?
That's what I'm saying.
Listen to me.
There is a feeling and a part being a part of a club that you just, I don't, I know
that I'm not, will ever feel like I'm a part of the club.
I just want to get the invite.
Okay.
Oh, I see.
So once I get the invite into the club, I'll stick my toe in and go, Hey, I'm back in.
Right.
Just to let people know that, Hey, I got access after a decade of not being in the club.
I got myself back in the club.
Yeah.
Right.
And then I will leave.
How do you go?
I go, I'm out of the club now.
It's funny.
The show got canceled.
Yeah.
Right.
But what I'm saying is, is that there is a feeling and, and I understand like when
I see someone like Ron Funchus, Funchus, right, he's really funny.
He's very funny.
And I love him.
Nicest guy in the world.
Right.
But he, you could tell in his eyes, right, that he's a part of the club right now.
And I, and I look at him.
I don't say it out loud, but I give him a wink.
Like you're in the club.
No, I'm not in the club.
But I go.
He's in the club.
I know.
I know where you're going.
You're going right now into the club, huh?
The clubhouse.
And then he tells his friends that Bobby keeps winking at me every time I see him.
I think he wants to date me.
And what it is, is this, is that they're just things that you get, right?
Like I'll give you an example.
When I got this pilot, I went to my trailer and I just had boxes of kiffs.
Like what?
From my agents.
Ah.
Right.
They give you a scooter or whatever it might be.
I've gotten scooters before.
I have.
Shout out to razor.
Right.
I've literally gotten a scooter before.
Like I don't.
Scooters come in.
No.
They give you a card where you can go to this, you have a number on it, right?
And you can go, this is my code.
And then they deliver it or whatever.
Right.
I just don't want to ride a scooter because I'll die.
It's a death machine, you know, you're a, you're, you're a careerist then you're one
of those people who yourself value hinges on the work that you're currently getting.
No.
That's why Macaulay Culkin left the business because he was, because he was born into the
club.
Oh.
Yeah.
But he, he, he, no, here baby, you're not getting what I'm saying.
Okay.
All I am saying is is that it's like, I just want to go in one more time, right?
And look at people and go, hi, remember me?
I was once here and I came back and now I'm leaving, but just let them be aware that,
you know, I might be back again.
Can I say something as being a really avid ex clubgoer?
Yeah.
The people that get in are the people who show, who, who don't show that they want to
get in.
They don't show a neediness.
There's always the girls who wearing super, super like tight stuff and the dudes who are
wearing, you know, they, they extra shine their shoes with the button ups and those
are the people that, you know, you don't want in the club.
The ones who get in the club.
In that scenario, you know what I am?
I have no skirt on.
I have just my pussy hanging out.
You're that desperate to get in the club.
It's like I'm on my back in line with my fucking lips open, my lips open, right?
Yeah.
And anyone doesn't matter, stick your feet in.
I don't care.
Stick your feet in.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But it's always the people who look like they don't need to be in the club who get
into the club.
There's, but here's a secret.
Here's a secret for you.
People believe, I think that I'm not desperate, even though I am.
So I've been able to hide it.
But sometimes I see you like when you see, go ahead, say it, say it out loud.
Like when you talk to Joe or Bill Burr, like you, there's an extra, like your voice becomes
higher.
You turn it to George Kimmel and I'll nudge him and I'm like, don't be needy.
What's up?
You okay, Bobby?
Don't talk about the UFC with him.
Just be cool, bro.
One time my brother, when my brother was drinking and he'll admit to this, he was at the comedy
store and Rogan was sitting out of stool and my brother was drunk and when my brother
got drunk, he became very brave.
He goes, Hey, man, what's up with some tickets and Joe stood up and he just walked away from
my brother and you could see my faith veins were popping on my head.
Oh man.
I was furious.
Right.
Here's another time.
My brother, I was hosting the Asian excellence awards and Ralph Machio was there.
Right.
Crotty kid.
Ralph Machio is sitting backstage on a couch with Danny DeVito.
I'm not fucking kidding you.
Right.
Interesting.
And my brother's drunk and he, every maybe minute, he would slowly creep up to, I swear
to God.
What the fuck?
Yeah.
Crotty kid.
And then walk back and I grabbed him by the arm.
I go, you're fucking drunk because yeah, I love him.
I love fucking see Crotty kid one more fucking time.
Right.
I swear to God.
My brother is infuriating when he's drinking.
Have you ever had one of those moments that were the next day you're like, why did I act
like that or say that?
Who me?
Yeah.
When?
I mean, have you?
I'm asking you, have you ever had those moments?
Oh, every once a week, every day, baby.
I say things once a week that make me sleepless at night.
I said something just now to a friend that made me second cast, like, who am I?
Because I haven't spoken to her, I haven't spoken to her in six years.
So I was like excited.
I grew up with her in the Philippines and before I hung up, I was like, you know, we'll
keep in touch.
Okay.
She's like, yeah, let's keep in touch.
We have each.
Oh, you know, we just text or call me anytime.
Oh, I will.
I will.
You better believe it.
Like, and I said it.
How you said it?
What the fuck?
And I was like, text me anytime.
I was like, I will.
I will.
You said it.
I will.
I will.
Why?
You said it.
I will.
I won't believe it.
You better believe it.
You're lying.
I swear.
You're not going to text her.
No, sweetie.
Something came out.
I was like, why did I sound so creepy?
You better believe it.
You better believe it.
I said, I, you know, you both, yeah.
I sounded like George Kimmel for like five seconds.
I tell you why I tell you why Tiger belly.
Your belly theory is with Bobby Lee.
Because you're just socially awkward, my friend.
And here's the thing.
I just can't get this thing to your head, man.
What?
This Tiger Bell thing, look at me right now,
is getting to your head, man.
What do you mean?
I'm gonna say it, all right?
You're getting a little confident.
As if that's a bad thing, right?
That's a good thing, right?
That's a good thing.
That's what a fucking god, man.
Sorry, George, we can't defend you.
I don't fucking do that again, man.
I just, like, in a fucking vent, man.
Oh, all right.
Okay, sorry.
Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap.
I was a shirt-tucker for so long,
I get to be myself again.
I'm just slowly coming back out of my shell.
I was, I had to be in corporate culture for so long.
Remember this, Taper.
I see you.
And I'll always be watching you, okay?
Because your strut,
give me some of your, like, the other night
when he brought that crew to the Ontario Improv,
he feels like he's a leader.
I am a leader.
He was a leader in that scenario.
And that scenario, yeah, I am a friend of that.
Right, but it's the blind in the blind, my friend.
I mean, they know they're not blind.
He's blind.
No.
They're not blind.
They're not, okay.
Yeah.
It's the blind leading the scene.
So wait, what?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what's said about it.
Don't bring them into your deafness and blindness.
They already see where they're going, okay?
So watch yourself, I see, I watch you.
I see you.
Your hair is different.
You know what I mean?
Ah, man.
If you gave him a makeover to be the best George Kimmel
he could be, what, like clothes-wise, like hair.
Here's what I would do.
Here's exactly what I would do.
I know where he would start.
What?
He always starts with the jeans with everybody.
Oh, it's got to, yeah, jeans is number one.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, so what I would do is this.
You don't like my jeans?
No, they're okay.
Actually, can I admit?
They're okay.
They're not the best.
What we've got to do is this, and this is now,
I'm going to sound like a fucking hipster.
Yeah.
Okay.
But we've got to go and get you some raw denim,
preferably from Okinawa,
because they have the best raw denim,
very thick, weighted denim.
You don't wash it.
We'll get you some Converse.
I'll tie it in the back of my Prius.
Yeah, those aren't the ones I was talking about.
Still Converse.
You know, if you ever fucking do,
did you see what he just did?
I was wearing goddamn Converse.
You said to get Converse?
No, not that kind.
That was a blind guy putting his feet on the table.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I would grow your hair out a little bit.
No beard, though.
I like this length beard.
No, I like the beard.
I miss the beard.
Yeah?
I like the beard, too, yeah.
I think you're so much more handsome
when you have some scruff, not all.
You don't tan.
See, when you pretend you can tan,
and that's why you're so pink.
You pretend you can tan.
Yeah.
He wants you to be deathly pale.
Stay cap, Kate Blanchett.
Oh, that's it?
Don't go pink.
Because it affects your dick.
And that's why you call you pink dick, okay?
So stay, and I know, and I know,
because I've seen your dick, all right?
I've seen your dick, and I know that you tan that shit.
You attempt to.
For real, George?
Yeah, because no dick is that pink.
Blood goes into it.
Of course it's pink.
24-7?
No.
Bobby's dick.
Well, that was the origin story of the pink dick.
Yeah.
Bobby's got a super pale dick.
It hasn't seen the sunlight in 12 years.
Is it the same as this again?
No.
Oh.
When it's excited, it just like loses all its color.
No, it's this, and if anyone see the movie E.T.,
everyone saw it.
Remember when E.T. was sick in the river?
Yeah.
Remember when he was going, you know,
and flowers were dying?
That's my dick.
That coloration.
Like a dying alien.
Damn.
Yeah.
Is your scrotum?
My scrotum is a disaster.
In coloration?
Yeah.
It's just a nice gradation.
Yeah, I've said it, I'll say it again.
It's like, it's like Neapolitan.
Oh, I have to talk about my boyfriend's scrotum again.
It's like a Neapolitan ice cream.
It's tricolored.
It's got strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla.
I can't make a decision.
I like all three flavors.
You bet, I will.
You bet you.
Your shirt, I like that shirt.
What is it?
Scarlet?
Scarlet.
Emma.
Tilda and Matt.
Emma, Emma who?
Emma Stone.
For what?
She played a Japanese woman.
That's right, that's right.
A half Japanese woman for that movie.
Scarlet, Ghost in the Shell.
Ghost in the Shell.
Tilda for Dr. Strange.
Dr. Strange, Matt.
The Great Wall.
Yeah.
Whitewashing.
Whitewashing.
Have you seen Ghost in the Shell?
I refuse to watch, he's good.
I didn't see it.
It looks very pretty.
I'm sure it is.
But you know what, I said I would refuse to watch
Dr. Strange.
And he did and he liked it a lot.
I must say this, I would just admit it.
Tilda Swinton was, I liked her role.
I mean, no one doubts her acting shots.
Because the Genghis Khan was in it.
What's his name?
Benjamin.
Benjamin, Benjamin.
Benedict Wong.
Benedict Wong is in it.
And he made up for the fact that,
I'm like, oh, it's a pretty good part.
And his presence made it seem like they were all Asian.
Yeah, yeah.
But whoever gets Akira, better make it all Asian.
I'll tell you that right now.
Yeah.
Better make it all Asian.
All Asian or all Japanese.
Is there talking about a remake of Akira?
Yeah.
How are they going to redo that world?
I don't know, but I kind of know the person
that might take it over.
Oh my goodness, that's interesting.
No, that's a true thing.
Yeah, I know, but I'm just saying that's a big task
at hand because that world is so difficult.
It's a very difficult story to do.
You have to rewrite it.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's very difficult.
But it's also Neo, not Neo,
post-apocalyptic Tokyo.
Neo, Tokyo.
Cool motorcycle.
So if they make it Neo LA or Neo New York,
it's not Akira.
And I'm going to fucking go Ape shit.
Oh, you're saying it has to be in Tokyo.
It has to be in Tokyo, in my opinion.
Yeah.
And they're going to try to switch it around.
And it's so funny because I kind of talk about it
when I'm on stage, about stuff like that.
And people don't give a fuck.
About the whitewashing and those kind of casting.
Like when you see white people,
they're not aware of the fact that it's wrong.
They go, yeah, we saw it anyway.
Like when they make decisions like that,
they just see it anyway, right?
And because they know the studios are on for,
I'll tell you why.
As a group, we're two separated.
The Filipino stick with Filipinos,
Korean state of Vietnam, whatever, right?
And second of all, we want to acclimate ourselves
into we want to just be invisible.
We just want no one to really know that we're here.
We're just working.
We're just happy to be here in this country.
And we don't have a civil rights leader.
Ban Ki-moon.
No, but we don't have like a-
George Dikey?
No, we need a Martin Luther King.
Oh, damn.
Yeah.
Like an American.
George Dikey is pretty close.
Martin Luther King, but Asian.
And he does a speech like Martin Luther King,
but with an accent.
And he's-
I'll tell you how it sounds like.
I have a dreaming.
Hey, who's this guy?
I have a dreaming.
The white people will do their own laundry.
Okay, this guy's clearly Korean.
Yeah, and then I think that that's what we need.
Well, what would he have to be?
What if he's Korean and like-
No, he's got to have four.
He's got to be a quarter of Vietnamese.
A quarter of Chinese.
A quarter of Filipino.
And a quarter of Korean.
No, you got to put Japanese and Korean there.
Yeah, all right, so a quarter of Japanese and Korean.
They're the same.
Well, don't tell them that.
No, I'm just saying that Japanese people
and Korean people are descendants from Mongolia.
We have the same DNA or whatever.
Well, you forgot the Indians.
Asians, South Asians.
Oh, come on.
I can think of their own continent.
I'm okay there.
Yeah, they're on their own thing.
Oh, God, they're South Asia, guys.
If you go to iTunes, right,
there's Asian cinema and then there's Bollywood.
They're separated.
Oh, that's true.
That leads me to a question.
Oh.
Bollywood.
George worked in Bollywood, guys.
Bollywood films, they often remake American films
with an all Bollywood cast.
What do you think of that?
Indianizing films.
Because I'll tell you why.
They're not going to make, right,
a movie about Abraham Lincoln.
Oh, my God.
And cast an Indian guy.
What I'm saying is, is in terms of stories
that have to do with real people or characters,
they should just make it, you know.
That's true because like the Bollywood movies,
they always like sense and sensibility.
It's a very, they usually have a very universal,
easy love story theme.
They're not going to do.
And they're not going to try to make
Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer.
But like if Akira is switched to New York
and just taken the story.
Because it's like saying,
taking Huckleberry Finn in India, right?
And just calling it Huckleberry Finn, right?
But then casting Indians in it,
but you're in the fucking the South of America.
It doesn't make any sense.
But you also have to.
But then if you switch it to India,
it's not Huckleberry Finn.
So don't call it that.
It's Punjabi and.
So you can make Akira, but don't call it Akira.
You also have to understand what Akira.
You look so angry right now.
I'm just so angry because you try to test me, man.
Because Akira was a really big deal.
I'm honestly curious,
because I don't mind it at all when Bollywood does it.
I worked on the remake of like.
Because you already know that you guys are in terms
of perception and how you feel that you're number one.
White people.
I'm sorry.
He loves white people, by the way.
I love white people.
But I'm sorry, but you might not even be aware of it.
But you're just born entitled.
So yeah, in your like, in your like little liberal,
whatever your head, you're like, why fight with it?
But you're born with this gift or this, this mantle, right?
Well, we're not born with it.
So we're more aware of it, fucker.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And also you have to understand.
You piece of shit, man.
But we appreciate your work on this podcast.
Yeah, we do appreciate you, George.
You think you're Schindler, huh?
See, I don't think he said that.
You think you're Schindler.
You're not.
He's looking at you.
Okay.
You're one of the other ones.
Where's the list?
Still top five of my favorite movies of all time.
Great movie.
Schindler's list.
You're not Schindler.
Mm-mm.
You're part of it.
You're a good guy, George.
No, you're part of the regime.
No.
No, what?
He's not part of the regime.
When I say, if I said he was Schindler,
that he'd be a good guy.
He's not Schindler.
He's a part of Hitler's regime.
George is not.
He's so kind-hearted.
Oh, I look.
Just because of my haircut right now, you're gonna.
You are part of the.
I'm sorry.
I take that back.
That was crazy.
That was pretty crazy.
That was really crazy what I just said.
I don't know why.
See, guys, I check myself.
True.
You know, I have this self-awareness.
I fucked up there, man.
Some people are oblivious.
Some people are oblivious, my friend.
He went wild.
Let's talk about Heaven's Gate.
Oh, my God.
And you know about it?
No.
You don't know what Heaven's Gate is?
We were listening to Sword and Scale.
Shout out to the best podcast.
Shout out to Sword and Scale.
Scale.
Not the movie.
Not the movie, no.
The cult.
The cult, Heaven's Gate.
Heaven's Gate.
You know about them?
A little bit.
It was, they were in San Diego.
They were found in a mansion.
39 people dead.
39 people.
They were all wearing purple robes.
They were all wearing black Nike shoes.
That's pretty cool.
And they all had a roll of quarters on them.
Because it's the only way
I think they can get onto the comet.
To pay in quarters, an American currency?
I think so, yeah.
And they all killed themselves.
Why the Nike shoes?
It's tricky.
Well, when I, no, it's not because it's trendy.
They like the, they like doing research.
They like the motto, just do it, right?
And they believed in that they could spiritually,
if they killed them.
So, you know that, what was the comet called?
It was called.
Haley's?
Maybe Haley's Comet.
Not Haley's or something else.
I forgot what the comet, look it up.
Yeah, anyways.
But there was a comet coming and or, you know,
and they thought that they, when they killed themselves,
that they, their souls would enter a spaceship
that was following the comet.
And they'd be extraterrestrial beings.
They could be right.
It's a Haley Bob comet.
Haley Bob comet, yeah.
But yeah, Heaven's Gate was a big cult.
And I'm creating a cult here, a Tiger Belling.
Ooh.
How do we die?
We're writing a book.
We're gonna write a book.
Yeah.
And we're gonna really write a Bible.
We'll release it.
We're gonna release it.
And we've got commandments.
We've got ways to live.
But definitely no mass suicide.
That's just silly.
That's hacky.
That's hacky at this point.
In fact, you're chastised if you died.
Yeah.
Like you're not alive.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, he's dead.
Let's chastise him.
Yeah, we'll chastise you for life.
Yeah.
But there's all these little rules and.
Name some rules.
I want to hear them.
Well, I am not, I'm just a prophet.
Okay.
Just a prophet.
Just a prophet.
But I'm equal to everyone.
I'm not the leader.
Okay.
Okay.
I'm a symbol.
Okay.
Okay.
Like print.
But you still have to worship me.
Oh.
All right.
So we worship and equal.
We're equal, but you still have to worship me.
And when we get our compound, we will have a compound.
And we will have things that happen.
Are do the men live separately?
Cause you know, in Heaven's Gate,
they weren't allowed to engage in sexual activity.
There is no other men in there.
Oh, it's all women?
Well, you two, that's it.
What the fuck?
So just answer the women.
So it's a sex dungeon for you.
That's not sex dungeon.
No.
Maybe I'm monogamous to you and you're my light.
Okay.
But, you know, in my vision, it's not me.
It's God.
No, everyone.
Maybe I, I can't help it.
I receive the information through God.
And so it's still, it's still God.
If we're going to be a legitimate cult,
we have to allow all men,
because 80% of the listeners are men.
They'll be, they're not in the compound,
but they'll be involved out in the fields.
In the field.
What are they doing in the fields?
They're picking things.
Oh.
Not cotton.
Okay. Well, that's my worst fear.
Lint or something.
Out of belly buttons.
No, I'll just throw things out there.
You have to pick it.
I don't know.
I don't get it Sam.
Why are we just picking up this trash?
I don't want to reveal my,
I don't want to reveal my new religion,
my cult right now.
All right.
I mean, the process of communicating with God.
Okay.
And he'll give me the inspiration
and he'll write it through my hands.
Can I just ask one thing?
Yeah, go ahead.
I'm interested.
Can you give a little bit about the afterlife
with your cult?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, sure.
It sounds like urban life.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
You'll be reincarnated.
Oh.
Okay.
But in the past.
You know how you get,
yeah, you know how you,
you let people believe reincarnations like this.
Oh my God.
Whether you die and then in the future.
So I can be a dolphin in the 1950s.
I already know.
I'm going to tell you what you're going to be.
What am I going to be?
Oh, the leader tells you what.
Oh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Through visions.
You're going to be a.
Don't tell me.
I don't want to know my, my destiny.
I'm not ready to hear it.
I'm interested in my choices.
You're, you're, you're going to be a whole.
Excuse me.
A leader.
You're going to be.
Clarified?
Yeah.
Or a whole?
Or what kind of whole are we talking about?
A whole in the ground?
Well, all I'm going to say is you're going to be
a fantasy fuckhole.
Okay. Well, that's.
And that's your name.
That's my worst nightmare.
Fantasy fuckhole.
What decade though?
You said in the past.
Oh.
I'm a fuckhole in what?
A thousand years.
You're a harlot from like.
Medieval days.
Yeah, definitely.
Game of Thrones shit.
Game of Thrones shit.
And the Scottish are involved.
Yeah.
Scottish men are involved.
And you're just going to be,
you're going to be in a cage as a whole.
As a whole?
Yeah. You're, yeah.
Well, they're not going to see your face.
Could we.
Oh, I'm still a person.
You're a human being.
You're a whole.
No, you're a human being.
Okay.
But we cover your human.
Part.
Dude, yeah.
What are these sentences?
This is a sentence.
It's a fucking gift.
You're giving, dude.
So if don't die then.
God.
Don't die.
But when you get reincarnated into the past, right?
You're, you're just going to wake up
and you're just going to be in a cage.
Okay.
And your face and your body is covered
except for your butthole.
And you're constantly in a bent over position.
Oh my God.
Right?
Just listen, right?
Jesus.
And it's a cage with no bars.
Basically what it is,
it just has your ass cheeks streaking out.
Right?
Of a box really.
My butt is not that wide.
Please narrow it down.
Whatever.
Don't.
Look at his hands.
Ridiculous.
Well, they're going to feed you a lot.
Through my butt or my mouth?
Through your mouth.
Thank you.
You're going to be fat.
You're going to be really fat.
Because you're going to have these gigantic butt cheeks.
Right?
What?
And there's going to be like fingernails sticking out
of them from other people.
Oh.
Yeah, I know.
It's not going to be good.
Right?
And they're just going to just like grab it
with their fingernails.
And that's what I'm going to put on.
We're going to have a sign.
Okay.
You're going to grab these cheeks.
Use your nails.
Okay.
That's not a God's vision.
That's you now.
No, so it brings up.
That's not God's vision.
You're adding this sweeter.
It brings up, right?
Like, you know, the well in Silence of the Land.
Okay.
It's going to look like that.
And they're just going to just no condom, no sheepskin,
nothing.
You and your just dig raw doggy.
And they're just going to, and there's going to be miles
of people.
Okay.
And that's you.
We have to accept this afterlife.
But the whole community only has one fantasy fuckhole.
So they all have to fuck him.
The whole country.
Scotland.
Of all Scotland.
And also some Irish and some English.
I think Europeans.
But you're just going to be this fucking fantasy fuckhole.
There's an example.
So that's one example of this new religion that we're creating.
Wow.
Yeah, it's a great one.
I'm not, I'm not sure I incarnated in the past.
I'm keen on this.
Yeah.
I was really excited before this now.
Oh, you?
Well, I don't want to talk about you.
You don't want to talk about.
It's going to be kind of the same thing,
but in the dinosaur age.
It's a lot of dinosaurs.
And straight with dinosaur claws.
It's his butt sheet.
It's going to be T-Rexes and all kinds of shit in your fucking
shit.
Oh, man.
Anyway, what do we have time?
We're at an hour.
We are?
Already?
Or like a 50, I guess.
Yeah, 50.
Oh.
Is that good?
That's good.
We're ready for the question.
What the fuck?
I'm not ready.
If anything else we have to share.
Why aren't you ready?
What do you have something to share about?
You had a dream, didn't you?
You had a dream.
No, no, no.
I had nothing.
I just didn't realize that that much time had elapsed.
We just talked about my incarnation for an hour.
Ready for the questions?
It's going to be devastating for you.
For me?
For him.
My butt cheeks.
God, I hope my destiny is a lot calmer.
This is great.
Satin, like, all that.
Satin in the prairie?
No, in the ocean.
You're a coral reef.
I'm like a fucking, what do you go, giant clams?
No, you're a human being.
You're just going to be floating in the ocean.
Dead?
Attached to a ball and chain.
Thank you.
Go ahead.
Armless pirate lady.
Unhelpful advisor Bobby at Kalilah.
Hi, Kalilah and Bobby.
I said an unhelpful vice last year
about moving in with my long-term law student boyfriend.
I wanted you guys to know that we ended up moving in together
and it's going very well.
That was against our advice.
That was against you, wasn't it?
Yeah, I don't know.
Proof that do not take our advice.
Anyways, my new helpful advice career is related.
Wait, what?
It's career related.
I have a B.A. in economics, but realized post-grad
that I hated working 9 to 5 behind the desk.
I was making good money in advertising,
but I started getting really depressed
from the corporate atmosphere.
I've been thinking about moving into the fashion industry
for a long time because I make all my own clothes
and I love to sew, but only recently I
was convinced by my parents to get behind me
to pay for fashion school.
I'm really excited about the thought of either working
and starting my own clothing company
or also working on sets like Westworld.
How cool would that be?
Anyways, I know you and Bobby also love fashion,
so which of those ideas do you think I should pursue?
Entertainment fashion or own clothing line?
You could actually do both.
Both, right?
Yeah.
You can do both.
All I know is you should just do what you want to do
because you have one life.
You have one shot.
And to see these people go to work doing something
they don't want to do is just really heartbreaking for me.
You should do what your heart says.
You should be free.
What do you think, babe?
I think that George did it.
She sounds like she's killing the game.
She's already, she knows all about advertising already
because that's what she did for a living.
So she has that in her arsenal.
She seems like somebody who's proactive,
somebody who knows what direction she's headed.
She sounds like a bright girl.
I don't worry for her.
And I think that she can do both and be very successful at that.
I don't know.
I think that we could probably use some advice from her,
not the other way around.
Because obviously, I think she wrote in and we literally
told her, do not move in with your boyfriend.
And she did.
She said, fuck you guys.
And then that turned out great for her.
So yeah, I mean, maybe we should be learning from you.
What would you rather do?
Do you like costume design on movies and TV shows?
Or would you rather just start your own clothing company?
You're kind of doing it in a way, your own clothing company.
No.
For starters, I don't know anything about textile.
And I know how to sew a running stitch.
And that's it.
A back stitch, too.
Cross stitch, too.
Actually, I'm OK.
I can sew.
Thank you for your resume.
Thank you so much.
Oh, speaking of sewing, you've got to fix my jeans.
I've got to figure that out.
Yeah, I'll fix your jeans.
No, we know we've got that male to that person.
I know, I know, I know.
I would love to do, if I had chops, if I had a skill,
I would do like set wardrobe.
Set wardrobe.
Denim repair.
Denim repair, goddammit, Bobby.
As a career?
No, for me.
Yes, babe.
Just to tell you, we clean my denim.
Yeah.
And another question.
Give us another one.
We're a little light on questions,
because everyone was submitting for the live show.
But yeah, any shows for Bobby?
Any other?
Yes, I need a big plug here.
Yes, Bobby will be at Magoobies in Baltimore, Maryland.
Is that real?
Yeah, it's real.
People are going to show up to this.
I've never played this room before.
OK, guys, if you're living in the area,
you've got at least one time come.
Magoobies.
It's real.
Baltimore, Maryland.
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
I've never been there before.
And if it's not good, I'll never go back.
But I want my first experience to be somewhat around people
that are familiar with my energy.
OK, and if you even live an hour away from the Magoobies,
please come and support me.
And in turn, when you do a recital or whatever,
I'll be there in spirit.
Is it harder when it's the first time
you've been in that market?
Like, is it do you not usually have a good turnout?
No, it's never a good turnout.
But what I like is people don't think that I do stand up.
What?
Yeah, because I don't have specials out in this.
So people go, he does stand up.
So when I do it, people generally go, oh, my god,
he's actually OK at doing it.
So I like that reaction, where the club,
you can tell the club is like, is he going to be good?
Because a lot of times, I'm not going to name names,
but there are guys that have done television and film that
think that they can do it.
So they head on a room and they just can't do it.
They think that their name will pull them through it.
And it's a completely different skill level, really.
Not that I'm the best stand up, but I've been doing it,
so I know how to do it.
That's all.
Yeah.
Any other shows?
Just the Magoobies.
Guys, we're really pushing for Magoobies.
We have more dates, but they might get either rescheduled
or all that stuff.
So I don't mind that.
Edmonton, I had to reschedule because of love.
And then I'm just really just really optimistic
about my life right now.
That's good.
That's good.
I've never been here before.
I've always been so negative about my life.
And I'm really, for the first time, feeling very optimistic
about it.
And it feels kind of good.
Wow.
The first time a gentle leaving.
Bobby Lee, everyone.
George, any announcements?
Clila, anything that comes to your head?
I have to pee so badly, but I'm not
going to stand up until we get done with this.
You can go pee, for sure.
No, it's OK.
It's OK.
We'll do announcements quick then.
We got shirts coming out.
They should be out by the time this is out.
Yes.
Get them.
Buy them.
Buy them.
They're the slept king shirts.
You may have seen them.
Yes.
You can check them out on Instagram
or anywhere else by now.
Yeah, they're beautiful shirts.
I mean, we got two awesome colors.
What's the dark one called?
It's not just black.
It's Heathered Black.
Heathered Black, not just Black.
We hooked you guys up with Heathered.
They're all tri-blend, very soft,
bright colors.
And then if anyone questions you, like, oh,
where did you get that shirt?
Did you just buy it off some random place?
No, look at the back, because it says Tiger Belly on it.
Tiger Belly owned.
Yeah.
And we got really good advice from our feedback
from our first run of shirts.
And someone wrote us and said, hey,
it would be nice if it was more personalized.
And I agree.
And so we're going to try that to be more
personal the next time.
But also, since we don't do our own packaging
and mailing ourselves, and we go through a factory who
we like a lot, we weren't in control of some things
the first run.
But this run should be.
Yeah, we're improving every iteration.
Yeah.
And so there was some trouble with some people,
some shipping abroad, right?
A little bit.
A little bit.
But we took care of it.
And the next round will be smoother sailing all around.
Thank you guys for supporting us on the last run.
Yeah, so we thank you so much.
That was really, those shirts were gone in a week.
And we really, really appreciate it.
Cool.
Next up, a while back, we asked for iTunes reviews
to get to 1,000.
We're at 981.
So close.
We've been so close for so long.
So it helps so much.
Please, can we get just up to 1,000?
I wanted to get there a while back.
I'm a little disappointed, honestly.
Really?
Yeah.
You can't force, you can't strong arm people to leave you
reviews.
Yeah, they've done so much else.
Like, you know, they did all the other surveys and stuff.
So I can't be too complaining.
We want to hit 1,000, guys.
So 20 of you would just leave a review.
It would be nice.
Also, if you haven't, I know, like, this is what I do.
And I kind of feel bad.
There's certain podcasts that I love,
but I never hit the Subscribe button.
Back in the day, it used to be because I didn't want it to flood
or take away from memory on my phone, right?
But then I realized that I was actually doing a disservice
to the podcasts that I really love,
for instance, like Sword and Scale or other ones,
by not subscribing.
So what I'm saying to you guys is, if you love this podcast
and you listen to it every week, just hit the Subscribe button.
It also helps us stay on top of or stay competitive.
If you don't have memory on your phone, just buy a new one.
That's with the promo code, Belly.
What else, George?
I haven't announced it in a while, so just a reminder
that we do have a YouTube channel.
If you're just listening to this, we
have vlogs on there.
We've been pretty consistent on vlogs, but they're Kalyla.
They're Kassim's favorite vlogs, so just to.
I'm doing a Nicole Kidman clap.
Do the Botox face, too.
She's beautiful.
I'm sorry.
Botox or not, she's 49 years old and looks that good.
Her and Keith Urban, good couple.
Keith Urban looks like he's melting a little bit,
but Nicole Kidman, not so much.
Shout out to Keith Urban's melting face.
And then Nation Foundation.
That's right, guys.
Our friend, Kobe, has an organization
that helps kids in Uganda with all their scholastic needs.
So if you go to nation-foundation.org
and hit the donate button, we would really, really
appreciate it, and we'll be repeating this every single week
because he needs your help, and I
think it's a really good cause, and we
want to help support that.
Yeah, it's for helping education.
Yeah.
I just gave $50, and it feels really good.
So if you want to feel good.
What did you give $50?
Oh, you did?
Yeah, he did it before the podcast.
Oh, nice.
I thought you gave it to Kiva.
No, I actually got my money back from Kiva, so I have it
to re-donate.
Cool.
And also, thank you for everyone for submitting
to the live show.
Oh, that's right.
So it's a small affair.
It's still a very intimate setting.
We got a ton of emails.
So we did our best in trying to pick indiscriminately
as best as we could.
Sometimes at random.
Some of them, some of you guys, really
sent some compelling stuff.
Either it was artwork, a video, or just some awesome emails.
Those are the ones that we may be favored,
but it doesn't mean that we don't appreciate all the ones
that have written who didn't make it on our list.
We have just a few left.
So as much as I don't know if I want to encourage you to write,
should we encourage them to write, or should we just?
If you feel like it right, but just know it's a very limited space.
Yeah, if you're feeling lucky and you think you can still
get into the live show, by all means write an email.
And I might feel extra charitable and just say yes.
But the space is extremely limited.
So I just want to put that out there.
And to all the people that we haven't replied to,
thank you so much for writing and we really appreciate you guys.
And if we didn't get you this time,
we'll get you on the next show.
Hopefully one day we have a venue that we can just
have everyone come show up.
Yeah, it would be nice.
But we're keeping it small.
And I'll tell you why we're keeping it small.
We're keeping it small for no other reason than my anxiety.
I don't think Bobby's a performer, Gilbert's a performer,
even George is a performer.
He does improv.
But I don't think that I can handle speaking in a room of like.
He does improv, don't you guys?
But you could probably speak in front of hundreds of people.
Whereas I think that I could too.
I could, but let's again just graduate slowly into that.
True.
And I know that it's one of those shows
that we would probably have to mingle and speak
to everybody after.
And even though I enjoy that, it's very like a,
I love meeting people.
It just takes a lot on me physically.
Like it takes a toll.
Like I break out in like neck highs and stuff right now.
Like watching her neck.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I can see sweat.
Yeah, guys, the podcast, her hand is literally soaked in sweat.
Just I didn't believe that when you guys talked about it.
But look right now, it's disgusting.
Crazy.
But that's even me thinking about like,
I'm excited to meet everybody next week.
I just don't know why my body doesn't follow.
Like my head is being positive.
But my body is like, get me a fuck out of here.
So, yeah, so that's why we're keeping it the small affairs.
And also there's a secret performance from the weekend.
Sorry if you can't come.
Post cello, you know?
Post cello the weekend.
Anything else, George?
That's all for me.
Cool.
Also really quick, a little bonus at the end.
MMA Men at just a quick question.
Oh my God, Robert Whitaker.
Let's really quick tune out.
If you don't like MMA, we're done with everything.
But really quick MMA talk.
What are your thoughts on the future of the middleweight
division, 26 years old, from tough?
Wow.
You know what?
I had seen him fight Uriah Hall.
Good fight.
He fought.
Who else did I see him fight against?
I've seen him.
I've seen his real.
Yeah.
I've been following that guy.
He is so light on his feet.
He is, you know, you don't think like you
think that Jockeray is a big guy.
But Robert Whitaker is a big guy.
See, this is the first time you knew texting me.
I was like, I always saw him as a 170
because that's where he started.
But then this is the first time I've
seen him with thick legs, like a thick body.
Before he was fighting 185 early on when he made this position.
So small.
So I was like, he's undersized.
Was he 170 on tough?
Yeah.
Oh, that's why.
But then he probably didn't have a choice.
He got knocked out.
All because he stayed in his career.
He got knocked out twice.
He lost to Wonder Boy.
He fought Wonder Boy, lost to someone else.
And then he switched over to 185.
And then after that, the weight cutting.
I mean, that has to be it.
That's why he was losing.
Yeah.
I think that he belongs in middleweight.
And he was so impressive.
And I loved his post-fight interview.
He was humble.
He gave it up to Jockeray.
And I felt really bad though.
But oh my god, did you guys see the Michelle
Watterson and Rose Namayuna's fight?
Yeah.
Shout out to those women, that mom.
Dude, I felt so.
I didn't feel bad because it's pretty bad.
It was a bad ass fight.
And I love Michelle Watterson.
But when she was at the very end, when she was being submitted
and all that blood was gushing out of her nose.
Her eyes were all closed up.
Yeah.
Her kids there with her husband.
But those girls loved each other or they love each other.
So it was really nice to see.
I think Rose Namayuna is probably
going to be a champion one day.
She's only 24.
She's so young.
Her growth is exponential.
Every time you see her fight, she just
gets better and better and better.
But she's so emotional when her love.
She's not.
You know what?
She used to be very emotional.
When she was on The Ultimate Fighter,
that was the one thing that was my one critique about her.
I said, wow, this girl really is.
She has all the tools, the ingredients,
like for physicality.
But she couldn't get her emotions.
Yeah, she was ran.
She basically fought very emotional.
But now she's really zen.
She's really even keeled.
Yeah, I'll say it right now.
I mean, when the time comes, I think
there's still a fight or two before her championship.
I think she could be the girl to take out Yohana
if there is anyone.
Not now, though.
Not now.
I'm just saying it a couple of times.
If Yohana loses, I think it's starting.
I'll say this right now.
I don't think that the Jessica and Draj fight
is going to be easy for Yohana.
She can get knocked out easily.
She used to fight 135.
And she was knocking out girls at 135.
Yeah, so I don't know.
I don't think that's going to be an easy one for Yohana,
but I'm still going to have faith in our Polish girl.
I think that's it for our MMA Minute.
And I think that's it for this week altogether.
