It's showtime.
It's show time. it's Carl with Jen from the Jingles Department. Thanks for joining us Jen. Thank you. A little bit of a different show format today. We're gonna do a
tribute to Carl Ruiz. If you haven't heard the news, Carl Ruiz passed away last
weekend. Apparently had a heart attack in his sleep. He was so sad. 44 years old and
of course we know Carl very well on this show because he was a co-host of OP radio.
And I would say probably at least 50% of the OP episodes that came out head collar
Louise front and center on though.
So over the last 16, 17 months, we've been listening to a ton of collar Louise.
So I found out the new Sunday morning as I was editing the podcast. We didn't get a chance to talk about it all
Last week, so I thought I'd be fitting to just talk about some of the things that we liked about Carl because
he was the one thing on the OP show that was enjoyable. He was. He always was funny and real and
He always was funny and real and
Universally loved I'm gonna play a clip from Sam Roberts He talked about this on his show on Monday Jim Norton wasn't on so
Unfortunately, it's a listen to Sam's annoying voice, but I thought they brought up some good points here
He was a good dude. Yeah, I didn't know now. I didn't know anybody
That would sit there and go that dude sucks. nobody that was a huge bummer and trust me
It's easy to find people to tell people
This dude sucks that dude sucks like you know, yeah
And we did not think that carnal sock. He was just an overall good guy and
I found somebody posted a
Link to a video before OP started doing a podcast
OP radio. He was doing these Facebook live videos. And it would be him and Carl or maybe
Sherrod and Vick are there and he would just fire up his phone and start recording. This
is a video that's over an hour long and about 50 minutes in, they
start talking about the situation when OP had the afternoon show. It's serious. He had
OP radio and it was well known that he paid the co-hosts to come on and do the show with
them. Okay. And I didn't know anything about this.
I didn't listen to OP show when he had the afternoon show.
So I didn't know a lot about this.
I just knew that he would have Sherada and Vic
in Carl Ruiz on these guys.
Okay guys.
So this is really interesting.
He's sitting there with Carl in a bar in a restaurant.
So it sounds like crap, I apologize for that.
But this shows you what a good guy call Ruizas.
And people want to know if I'm paying you, that whole thing is coming up again.
This is from December 18th, 2017. Okay. Is when this is recorded. And of course,
OP started this podcast, I think around April or May of 2018. So this is a few months
before that. And people want to know if I'm paying you. That whole thing is coming up again. Why?
People think I need to pay people to hang out with me and do radio. This is
a good nonsense I got to deal with. When I was moving on to the last version of the show,
I've exclaimed all of this. I wanted to pay a few of the guys that were really, really helpful to putting the new
rendition of it.
And I went sign my contract.
It's like I'm running for my guys.
And for some reason, people are spinning that like it's a bad thing.
And you weren't in on that.
And I still feel bad.
Call didn't really get paid for his appearances on the last version of
radio show. Carl was not getting paid so he had all these guys that he was he wouldn't sign his
contract until he got him paid and Carl would go do a show all the time. Well Carl's a smart person,
he was getting some airtime and he needed that publicity too but what a guy. I'm impressed because if you listen to the list of people he did pay.
So I held out and I finally got 200,000 that I spread the, you know, the wealth.
Right.
The Shorod that can't be good for you.
Rich Voss who for some reason that's a problem with Rich Voss, I'm never understanding
that.
I saw him give me a big hand.
So he did pay Vic Henley, Sharad Smollick.
These guys also could use the publicity.
Even more so than Carl Ruiz.
Carl Ruiz isn't a stand-up.
Usually if you're a stand-up, if you're doing gigs on the weekends, if you can build
a fan base through a podcast or a radio show, that's going to help you when you go and
try to sell tickets.
Sure. But Carl even brings up that this was really just helping him for the restaurant that he had.
I also talked about how he didn't pay Mark Norman either.
There were two people that surely got paid that did it. I couldn't take care of everybody.
But it also felt like some of these guys were coming in and you know,
I was helping their tickets. I also felt like there was some work to it
Like your business went up in Marines. Yeah, I feel bad. I didn't pay more for them because he was one of the guys on the fence
All right, that's so hard to understand what he's saying
So what he said goes these guys could have come on and just done the show and would have helped them with their ticket sales
And and then he's thinking about as I go shit, oh shit. I mean, your business went up at Marie's, right?
This is when Carl, with his wife at the time,
ex-wife now.
Wow, yeah.
I don't even know how to talk about this.
This is when Carl had a deli in New Jersey.
Okay.
So he was going on a national radio show
to help his deli in New Jersey. Does that make any sense?
No, but he seems like he was also probably just doing it for fun because he's a fun guy.
Well, he also had another radio show on Sirius about cooking. Okay. So he did have a job
at Sirius. Carl Ruiz did that he was getting paid for. And then he would stop by and spend
hours with Opie, which is impressive. I mean, I give the guy credit. He was not doing this
for a paycheck. He was doing it for fun, but then Opie did end up paying him. I'm going to say,
I have to. I ended up giving a call to the check, near the end. I felt like it wasn't right,
that you weren't really getting paid. How did you earn money? That was all my... That was a fact check that I threw in your car because I knew you wouldn't take it.
So Opie felt bad in the paying carol with his own money.
Ah, he's so awkward.
Why is he having to talk about that?
I know, but don't talk about what a great guy you are on your show.
It doesn't come across while.
No.
But it's funny because if you remember how I started these clips, he talks about how everyone thinks I have to pay people to hang out with me. Why
do they think that? That's why me and Krill are friends like, you never really
asked me for anything. I can't tell you how many of these guys expect it a lot. Yeah.
All of the other guys expected to get paid for their time. Which, rightfully so.
If you're gonna co-host a show.
Well, yeah.
It makes sense.
It's one thing if you're just on as a guest
from time to time.
Right.
But if you're expected to come in day after day
and do this like rambling radio show.
Well, if you're on it every day,
you are part of the show and you should be getting paid.
So it's interesting that for some reason
Opi worked really hard to get a pool of money that he could pay his co-host but he never paid Call of Louise out of that money and
I was listening to an episode that we reviewed
Now knowing that information and Opi's talking about chemistry and how he always understood
Which guys to get in the room because he understands chemistry
and I understand this clip a little differently now knowing that he didn't have to pay Carl to come in.
When you didn't think the lineup was right at the series 6M, they get like you didn't like it.
You call me up.
COOPS!
I know this stuff really well.
You always knew I was automatic, like I wish if I could, I'd be there.
I was always mixing a match of people and sometimes I knew the chemistry wouldn't be good
and I knew like adding you to the mix would absolutely help that chemistry.
That's true.
Adding Carl to the mix does help any show because he's the funny person.
He is the funny person.
And again, here's the guy, Opie's calling him up because he doesn't have to pay him anything so it's like hey cubes want to come on the show today and
Carl would just do it and I think that's impressive. It's a good guy
He's a likable person very likable person always comes across as being really likable somebody you'd want to hang around with and
getting back to
Sam he brought up something that I think is a great point
and something that maybe even guys like Stuttering John can learn from. And he would actually,
like where so many of us are going like, Oh, don't feed the trolls, don't talk to the
trolls online. People would troll him. He's the only person I've ever known that would
get the trolls that we get, which are like some of the fiercest trolls in the world and he would win them over
People who initially were just going on the internet to fuck with him
He would start talking right back to him and if they were funny he would tell them okay regardless
It was about him or not. He'd be like okay, that was funny. That was a funny joke and it was not funny
He would come back at them with some of his own jokes, but eventually they would all turn around and they'd all love him
So I had firsthand experience with this
Because I don't troll people on the internet. We just do a show and put it out. I guess that's trolley people on the internet
Whatever you know, I'm not on Twitter at mentioning people and fucking with them
But Karuiz reached out to us directly and you know made a comment
about some of what we were talking about with Tater Tots and Jeremiah's and said he loved the show
and it's just amazing to me that Carl was just had such a great disposition about everything
that was going on just loved life just enjoyed everything Like you guys are goofing on OP, that's cool man.
He even said, like, he bought the good work or keep doing what you're doing. It's just really cool guy.
Understood how to play both sides, didn't get wrapped up into things.
It's a shame he had to go because the world needs people like him to have a sense of humor.
Wait, he's the only guy that I can think of who is really cool with all
the different warring sides of the old OP and Anthony universe. Nobody has a bad thing
to say about it. If you talk to Anthony or Jim and Sam obviously talking about it and
obviously he's OP's guy, OP loves the dude. Their best friend's, OP put out a big, long
Facebook post about this. I thought was pretty
touching. And this is a big deal for Opie. Of course it is. It's really sad for him. And
I don't think anybody saw this coming. I mean, why would you? He was 44 years old.
44 years old full life. It seemed to be doing. I mean, he didn't have a healthy lifestyle.
He was smoking, drinking. Well, that chef lifestyle is not healthy.
No, opening up the restaurant, multi million dollar restaurant man,
hat, and I'm sure is stressful hypertension.
So, but I loved the fact that Carl was in on the joke.
And I think, and I know I'm going to sound like people I make fun of,
but I think he was throwing us back
It's certain times in the show because he would say things that he knew we would latch on to it
Start with things like this a drinky poo
Well, I know you are convinced he was sending you signals
He was sending you signals cuz he was starting my say like oh, you know, I have a drinky poo or let's go to the tabanuch
The tabanuch
And at first I think he was just having fun with Opie because that's the brother we
talked, the Opie picked up.
But then there got to a point where Carol was doing this on purpose, things like this.
So my third base took a little nappy poo and I went up, I got up to have a ciggy and
it didn't wake her up.
And he's talking about nappy poo's SIGGI's at the same sentence.
There's something going on there.
He knows what he's up to.
Even when they made the trip to Rochester, OP and Carl drove to Rochester to go on Brother
Rees' show.
And Carl had an idea about having a little excursion.
We could maybe do a little side trip to Buffalo.
Buffalo? Yeah, man.
God.
Go to Buffalo.
So, Carl, you're talking about you, Collie Poo.
Oh, yeah.
Or Collie Poo, I should say.
Collie Poo, I think, was sending us signals.
I think he knew that we loved when he was saying those
ridiculous words that were only funny to third graders.
Well, and all your fans and yourself.
And especially all our fans and myself.
The other thing with Carl was he was the real guy on the show and when everyone else would just laugh along with Opie or just play along with Opie,
Carl was the guy who would try to level set things from time to time, and his patience would wear thin
with the oops here.
That was one of the things that I loved about him.
Opie would go off and yell at people in the streets
or just make an ass of himself in Manhattan,
and Carl would say things like this.
When you do shit like this,
I can understand what some people hate you.
Why do you think I'm doing that?
Many of truth is said and just, and Opie is not well liked by people.
No.
And Carl was a standout guy, was a good friend, but there were times when he'd be like,
see this, oh, this is why everybody fucking hates you.
What are you doing? He's a voice of reason. He was the voice of reason
This was one that we listened to just recently where OP's yelling fuck you with someone in Manhattan
Standing next to Carl and cross like dude, you're gonna make me fight these people. You want to be on my podcast?
Oh fuck you
OP
What are you saying fuck you to people?
I'm gonna want this guy to fight.
I'm out here. You're becoming the rope.
Like crazy.
How much...
I mean, there were times, and that's why we had the whole final countdown thing.
There were times when it seemed like he was at his wit's end with Opie.
And we really hoped that we would get Carl Ruiz on this show at some point.
It's a pity you never got to meet him. It's very sad. I think it would have hit it off for sure. and we really hoped that we would get Karl Ruiz on this show at some point.
It's a pity you never got to meet him.
It's very sad. I think it would have hit it off for sure.
It would have been a lot of fun to talk to him.
But there were a lot of signals that he didn't want to be on the show.
They went and saw Lewis J. Gomez's podcast studio.
And Lewis has taken them around.
He's like, oh yeah, here's studio A,
here's studio B, all this technology, all the stuff that we have set up. They walk out
of there and Carl was embarrassed. I was embarrassed. Why? Because we're walking around with this
dialysis machine and he's got this whole thing going on. Yeah, but we do it different.
Hope we just did not get it. He's like, that this is embarrassing.
Hope he's like, what do you mean? You're holding on to a handheld zoom recorder.
And you call that podcasting. You just walked into a multimedia studio where these guys
who don't have the means of Opie are doing it way better than you.
And I think that there are times that you would pick up on the carls just like oh man and even
just want to like end the show and Opie wouldn't let it stop.
It's not stupid.
I'm not doing it.
All right I'm going home.
But I want to talk about shit that girl.
We're done.
What do you mean we're done?
I want to go home.
I want to go home.
All right we did it. Shit that car leads. What a terrible name.
Dude, it's great. What kind of font would you use?
Brown? You want to do it in Brown? Like just a font.
You don't know fonts?
Let's look up some fonts.
Come on, that's it. What do you mean that's it?
I'm exhausted for him. I know. I feel so
bad. He had so much patience with Opie. He put up with so much. And then by the very
end of the show, he opened up La Cubana. And that was a big deal for the show. They would
go in and podcast from his restaurant. Even when they were building it, they were building the kitchen around them,
they'd be podcasting.
But then they finally opened up,
and OP would talk to the staff there,
and this is where Carl was really losing it,
because OP being OP embarrasses himself.
Who did?
Mr. Ryan, who says you work here,
and that's not how to get into the book. Ola! No, don't stop messing with stuff. I'm just saying Ola. Ola. Hey, Trump. Oh,
shit. Sorry. I got LASIK 15 years ago. I might need a touch-up. I'll give you a fucking
touch-up. I thought she was an Ola. What's wrong with you, Opie?
I really thought she was an Ola.
So first off, Carl's not really thrilled with this line of jokes.
Well, he shouldn't be as an HR nightmare.
Well, right, but Bokeven mind he's calling someone who works at a Cuban restaurant in Ola.
He's such an idiot, I can't say.
And Carl releases Cuban. Right.
And Carl just says very calmly, not jokingly, he goes, don't mess with staff.
Right. Like this is my, these are my employees. You can't go around just yelling racist,
insensitive things at them. And later on in that same episode, about an hour later,
Opie revisits us because he thought it was so funny.
He was not picking up or Carl was putting down.
And a hula hoop.
I'm sorry about the hola.
That was the hola, right?
Just let it come.
Just let it come.
You can't do it.
You can't do it.
Why, man?
I was trying to say sorry.
So finally, I loved this clip,
and I'm playing it again because
Karo finally just goes off on OP and lets him know what an idiot he is. You
don't apologize when you're offensively by keeping repeating your fence.
Hey, I'm sorry I called you speaker, right? Alright,
I'm speaking, speaking of Caprente Amigo. Sorry about I called you a
speaker. Did you hear that? SPICY? Mamos, okay? No bueno, no bueno, gracias, but I'm sure she's a no-no-no-stress
Don't just tell Banyo, okay?
She's annoyed me for many things
I was most models, okay? I'm sure she's annoyed me for many things
I was pointing out the one I was getting that
Pog
Hey rigger or Kano, hey sorry about that, okay? Maracas
Chacha chacha chacha chacha Boy, I'm on the... Boy,, sorry about that, okay? Maracas, cha cha cha cha cha cha cha.
Boy, I'm on the...
I'm on the...
I'm on the...
So, Carl had some fun with that.
He did.
He turned it into a funny bit.
But he really was legitimately pissed at Opie
for talking to his staff and insulting them.
Well, and rightfully so.
And it wasn't long after that that they mistook the black bartender
to be sure on small small which was very funny.
Oh he's like hey sure on.
He's like dude that's my bartender.
I guarantee he did not want Vic Henley and OP hanging out in this restaurant.
I wouldn't know what.
I just want to play one other clip that I have and this is just an example of Carl would
just say some really funny shit.
And it's hard to do.
It's hard to be funny on a show as bad as OP show.
So I got to give him a lot of credit.
They were doing a commercial for whatever mattress, purple mattress.
I think it's called.
And Karl talks about getting to third base with a chick on the purple mattress.
And I just, this one just struck me as very funny.
So the purple mattress is open. It's beautiful. Yeah, and I'm using it and
I got to third base on it
I got to third base and aggressive third base, too. What's an aggressive third means when you go straight to third base?
So you hit the ball run through the pitcher's mound and just got a pick and straight to third base. Oh, so you hit the ball, run through the pitcher's mound, and just go to pick it, and slide into third base.
That's it.
That's it.
That's it.
Now, unfortunately, they all have to laugh way too hard at that,
but that's a really funny joke.
It was a funny joke.
I was a third base.
I was genuinely laughing at it.
So I just wanted to play a couple clips and things.
It's, we're gonna miss Carl.
It's gonna be tough.
I don't know what OP is gonna do.
He's been putting out a couple of episodes
remembering Carl just like best of,
he says they're not best of, put their best of.
Yeah.
And he'll, I'm sure he'll do some type of tribute
or something like that for Carl.
And then we'll see, we'll see what he ends up doing. I feel bad for him. I do too. I feel really bad for Opie. This
is a huge loss for him. It's a big loss for everyone that was involved with Carl. Guy
Fieri had a lot to say about it and you know, he had a whole restaurant that he just opened
and it's it's going to be tough. be tough. So this is a very sad occurrence.
So he's the good ones. It is. It is always the good ones and it's... I really didn't even believe it
when I first saw the news. I had to go and look at a lot of different sources because
one of the things that Opie was talking about when and when I was reading what he had said was,
they weren't podcasting at the time,
but he was having a heartfelt conversation
with Carl and Carl said,
you know, if I go young, I'm cool with it.
I'm good.
Oh.
Yeah.
For boating.
Yeah.
And Carl seems like one of those guys
who was living life to the fullest
and maybe knew he was making decisions that we're going to catch up with him sooner than later.
But that was kind of his whole take on life.
Like, I'm going to tear this shit up.
Yeah.
And do everything I can do and no regrets.
So I guess that's the one thing that you can say if that story is true that Opie wrote I believe it that
Carl was cool with it. He enjoyed his time. He didn't need to he didn't want to turn into Arty Lang.
He seemed like one of the happiest people. Yes. So that's all you can ask. You know happier you can be in life good for him. So I
Do feel bad for Opie. I worry about him. Yeah
It's gonna be tough
It's gonna be really tough, but at least he's selling all that Ruizing merchandise. So he's making some money on that
Did you see that? No, somebody posted in our subreddit
They have a screen capture of Opie saying, for all the people purchasing Ruiz,
this is like two days after he died. Everyone purchasing Ruiz,
merchandise, it's on back order, so it'll take a couple extra days.
And the person in the sub-run is just like, I don't know, can you wait till after the funeral
to talk about selling his merchandise? Jesus Christ. Anyway, I didn't want a bash of you on this show.
That's not the point here.
That's not my goal.
But a couple of things that I do want to get through
because this is a new episode of WTP, kind of.
So I guess we should probably do a-
Inj of the week, inj of the week.
We got a cringe of the week that came in
from Nick Elfres.
And this is the Yahoo NFL podcast.
So this is a NFL podcast that Yahoo puts out
and these sports guys who are nobody's
because Yahoo doesn't have real sports guys.
The guy tells a joke that they lose their shit over and laugh about for about 90 seconds
and pound it into the ground. It's so uncomfortable. Hey, and Charles, if you were down 17 to 13 and the
fourth quarter on the opponent's 40 and you decide to go four to four to nine, how many f*** plays
would you need to run through before deciding on a draw?
It better be the Bible like the last page of the Bible.
That's how thick it has to be.
Like that's how long it should take me to get to Nick Chubb draw on 4th and 9 being a good idea at the Rams 40 like I don't even know really Charles really the Bible man like yes a better
be that's how that's a better be like last Corinthians. You did the last book. You did the last book.
You did the last book.
You did the last book.
Like the whole testament.
And the new is both.
I need to go through the new than the old,
than I need to get to the dead sea scrolls.
And then eventually I get to like the last Jesus posted note
where he's like seriously,
there's a bunch of gunor.
It's from Adam and me to revelations. You gotta go coast to coast.
Seriously, yo, it's the snake.
It's the snake going right in it.
Run it on 4th and 9th.
See what happens.
Oh, it's the apple to the full horseman.
Oh, God.
OK.
That was about as bad as it could be but.
Yeah, who fucking socks?
They're putting this out as a package.
That's the beginning of the show too.
It's not like they've been talking for three hours
and they're delirious.
They start the show off by saying,
I don't know if that play call was very good on a fourth and nine.
Do you think you would have ran another play
instead of that one?
I would have ran the Bible.
I know, that's not a good joke.
But the other guy laughs so fucking hard at it that they're like, well, I'm out of this up to here
Turn it into a fucking 15 minute bit
So that is I am cringing that is cringing the week worthy and we appreciate that Nick
Thank you for sending that in you know what else I want to play. There's a guy on our
subreddit who's been putting together clips
making fun of me and
There was one I was just listening to this morning
That I was laughing my ass off. So apparently we didn't always used to sell merchandise on watp. I think that's how this came about
Hello and welcome to another episode of who are these podcasts?
The only show that
doesn't try to sell you shitty merchandise. I'm your host, Carl. Please go to WhoAreThese.com
to get our email address, voicemail number, link to our sub-right at link to the Discord
server, link to our merchandise, link to our merchandise, link to our merchandise. Link to our merchandise.
Sleep well, every opponent. This is Mr. Loaf and he's been posting these things on SoundCloud.
I believe this is an exact-cheap compilation. It's a long clip, but I just wanted to show exactly what these guys are doing.
So, yeah, so this is... everything you just said is exactly right.
Well, that's exactly correct.
You know, it just dawned on me though.
You rehashed part of our conversation.
That's exactly right. Yes, good point.
Fuck you!
Now they fucking hate everyone. They hate Jim Norton, they hate Anthony.
They just hate everyone involved in the show and these guys are exactly right like what why are we even a group anymore?
What are we doing we hate everything about this show if you are interested in hearing a stutter read his Facebook post
Listen to this
That's exactly right
Listen to a lot of your podcast to get those I never realized I don't know how to talk.
Having a podcast is taught me that.
Oh wow.
It's not fun.
It's not a good thing.
Well, you're getting something out of this.
All right, let's play some-
Beyond the Acolytes.
Let's play some voice mails and get out of here.
This is a great one.
Cripple Jesus College of the Show.
I love him.
Hey, Carl, it's Cripple Jesus.
I just, um I just just informed that
Carl released died last week and it reminded me to call him because I'm worried
about your health Carl. I had to listen to half an episode to prep for your show when I was a mopey and I haven't
been able to walk since.
So, Opie really takes a toll on working with the body, buddy, and I would hate to see
you at nothing in the hospital as you're listening to the upstairs for all these episodes.
Love the show, buddy. Keep it up. Later. and the upstairs for all these episodes.
Let the show buddy keep it up later.
So, crippled Jesus' take is that
Opie might have killed Carl
because he just listened to one episode.
Now he can't walk anymore.
It's interesting, there he is.
I should not put that I listen to Opie radio
on my insurance.
You shouldn't. My health insurance is my vision. I'm probably put that I listen to Opie radio on my insurance. You shouldn't. My
health insurance is probably the doctor get physical. All right. This is a guy who's curious if
we should stop making fun of Opie. Well, after hearing the news today that the only reason that
Opie's podcast is somewhat listenable, uh, calories, past the way, um, I wonder if it may be in Some will listen will car ease pass away. I
Wonder it may be in poor taste to keep making fun of opi
and he seems pretty broken up about it and
Well, Carl was the only interesting thing on there, but then again, I remember it that they made fun of lacy peterson on all in a for
years Yeah, so Keep on beating down Opey Carl. Just
smack him around. Let's keep making fun of him. Like in you never, you never
want to let up for anywhere else. And you shouldn't either. I do appreciate
that when people remind me that we're making fun of Opie and Stuttering
John, these are people who have been doing this their entire lives.
I shouldn't feel bad about it.
No, I suppose not.
You look like you think I should feel bad about it.
I feel like under certain circumstances you can be the bigger person.
Yes.
But that's all up to you.
No, I know.
So Opie who gives a shit,
Suner and John who gives a shit, then there's guys like Shamus. I really think you should lay off
that guy. Shamus is losing his mind. This is a great boy smile, the K-A-MED. Hey, Carl. Well,
I can't wait until Shamus does a podcast where he heads to the rope ladder and stool store.
where he heads to the rope ladder and stool store. That's what I'm hoping happens.
All right.
We did not endorse that in any kind of way here.
We love Shemus, and we want him to continue to podcast
for many years to come.
They're fans are dark.
Speaking of which, I wonder if Colorado
Wells will be buried in a grave
a room or cremated in an incinerator reenie.
A little bit of a stretch, but I like it.
Oh boy.
Okay, so when you call W-H-E-P and we play your calls on the show, you become a
celebrity.
Is that true? Yes. So here is why I can calls on the show you become a celebrity. Does that true?
Yes.
So here is why I can start calling the show.
I'm the start calling the show.
Should.
So this is the guy that we made a celebrity through his calls.
Hey, Carla, this is the celebrity that called in last week, you know, I left a bunch of
voicemails.
So now you have to have me on your show.
Well, I'm calling because you're really going to want to have me on your show now.
I've found out the Maddits and O.E. John Melendez
and Shane that's all got on a Discord server
and they were talking about you.
So I just wanted to, you know, call in and give you,
oh, hang on a second.
I had to call in and tell you about that.
It's like calling the old and tell you about that. It's my call for the answer.
I know that.
You got to the problem.
You can call in.
But I think it might.
My call is definitely pretty good.
Well, you know, I.
I don't think he's even telling the truth about that discord server.
I don't think so either.
I don't think that's true. I was going back and forth with Mike Sappho, he's even telling the truth about that discord server thing. I don't think so either. I don't think that's true.
I was going back and forth with Mike Sappho, opi's producer about the whole thing where
John said he talked to opi's producer about us.
And Mike Sappho, very friendly guy, like this guy a lot, just said, yeah, we told him that
we're just ignoring you.
It was like, it was like a text message.
That's the right thing to do.
Yeah, we're just ignoring you. And then John turns us into. That's the right thing to do. Yeah, we're just ignoring you.
And then John turns us into like this whole thing
that they had a meeting and they were discussing
what they were gonna do and legal actions.
It's like, no, John, it's just you.
It's just you doing that.
All right, here is a guy who likes the music
that Doug White from Watchmen Studios made.
Who are these podcasts? Who are these podcasts?
Who are these podcasts?
Who are these podcasts?
Who are these podcasts?
Yeah.
Carl, holy shit, dude, that dude who fucking, oh my,
you fucking made all that muse, oh that was so good.
That was so good.
Fuck I'm gonna jerk off the sound of my own voices as I hear this
All right call me back. I'm not gonna call you back dude. I don't want to be a part of that
Well, Doug those are your fans. Wow guys you jerk off to the center of their own voice I mean, I would like to say for one that I'm impressed. Dog White is... Yeah, I killed it.
That was awesome.
I'm putting in my resignation.
He can be dug from the Jinguist Department.
Is that real?
No.
You're quitting?
You're quitting the show?
I'm not quitting the show.
Because I mean, that would free up budget.
We could use it in other places.
Oh, yes.
Well, we all know that you've been throwing checks into my car window,
but I want to tap on it.
That's the funniest part about that story is it goes,
I do you wouldn't take the money, Carl, so I just threw it in your car as you were driving.
It's a check.
I know. We probably just flitted away.
Well, you have to physically take it to a bank or somehow deposit.
It's probably an amount you can't do mobile deposit on.
So it's not like it's this thing,
it's like, ah, there's nothing I can do.
I had to take the money.
It's like, no, you had to take the,
if you never cash the check,
then hope we never gave you money.
Anyway, whatever.
It's fine.
Carl deserves it.
He deserved all the money that he got.
So apparently I was taking credit
for the fucking with Shamest thing,
and it wasn't my idea.
Carl, you keep saying that you came up with the idea to leave five stars and then shit on Shamest?
Uh, that was a listener. It was actually this listener calling you right now.
In my defense, the five stars and shitty got thing was my idea for our show.
So if a wister came up with that, I don't know how creative they were, but all right fair enough
I thought I can't put that I guess I was wrong
Anyway, I don't know really mad about hey
That's bad that's good, you know, you know, you said the opinion of a progressive new male
He is what men should be striving to be he's what every woman says they want to man nowadays. A man who doesn't make any money, man who cannot provide for his woman,
but the woman provides for her man.
Now, I'm wondering how many bulls his wife has,
and if she's looking for more, because I imagine there's a few
in the W-A-T-P audience.
Now, it definitely fluctuates' wife in front of him.
If for no other reason,
it's gonna give you a good story.
So that's the new challenge.
Find his wife in front of him.
That got...
That's going to quick, didn't it?
This guy's like,
I came up with the idea with the five-star thing.
I got a new thing.
Go have sex with his wife.
Like, whoa! That sounds... That's a... Sounds like a problem.
That is a big problem. Okay. Again, we Could you release them somehow? Kind of like how you're given away episode
A.D.A. with merchandise purchases. Maybe you can include a CD with them with purchases of
isotopes merchandise. I just show it. C.D. better, yeah. Just release them as bonus episodes
when you can't do a normal episode. Just add a couple of the newer drops throughout. No one
will tell the difference. Perfect. I had to go back and listen to those pilot episodes that Kevin and I did.
They were bad.
I mean, you gotta start somewhere.
We were trying out some bits. It was my fault. Wasn't Kevin.
We were trying out some bits where I was like trying to come up with like a number
scale for how bad the podcast was. How was that ever going to be funny?
There was just shit that I they were just terrible ideas.
It wasn't very good. I don't think the hour put those out
It's not fun to listen to I
Mean I do have tape of me from when I was tabbing. I know I'm keep waiting for you to play that I should I am gonna play that at some point
My brother dug it up found tape of me recording a comedy show and also some of my rap career
according a comedy show, and also some of my rap career from my free-fue-backed sit days.
Ugh, fuck.
I think that the fans deserve to hear it.
I think so too, especially this guy.
I'm fucking mother-
We missed him. It's been a little while.
That makes me laugh every time. I don't know why.
Because it's fucking hilarious.
And it never gets old. That's fucking hilarious and it never gets old
That's why it never ever gets old
This is an interesting story from a listener
Hey, let me very briefly recreate this message. I just left to the
Supervisor of another division
Hey name this is James is my number call me back James. This is my number. Call me back. Again, this is my number.
The sound of me putting my phone in my jacket pocket,
taking it already hung up, and then go into the restroom and I'm gonna take a piss.
And then me realizing I had not hung up yet.
Point being, it's a damn good thing I don't shit at work.
So this is a guy who pissed out a supervisor's voicemail.
I mean, Opie would call that comedy gold.
He would.
But...
If I were that guy, I'd be pretty humiliated, I think.
I just thought that was a funny story.
All right, here's a suggestion to listen
to Alyssa Milano's podcast.
Ha ha, W-A-T-P!
It's going on, Couseroo.
Real quick, you gotta check out Alyssa Milano's
story, not story podcast.
It is the virtue signal of all virtue signals.
Do you wanna check it out?
There it is, call me back.
That sounds terrible. Alyssa Milano is someone I do not want to hear from ever.
I don't want to hear her opinions, but that guy is from Canada.
Yeah, you could tell. For sure.
Yeah, sorry, sorry, not sorry.
Sorry, not sorry. I just thought I was spelled weird. You're right.
I have back-to-back voicemails that came in with the same joke, which is interesting.
Two different people.
Hey Carl, this is Celebrity Chef Carl Ruiz.
This is my real voice.
This is how I sound.
I just wanted to say that I am really looking forward to making an appearance on WATP next
week. I have a lot of
information I want to fill on the Clintons. I think it's gonna be great. We'll talk
soon. Thanks Cole. So this is actually part of the Clinton body count. Wow. Is
why Kyle always died. I mean, died in the sleep at 44. It does seem suspicious. It's too
bad. He didn't get that juicy info out of him before he passed away.
I should probably alert Sam Tripoli about this.
What?
Is that real?
Whoa!
Hey, girl.
This is a follow-up.
I think I'm ready to come on the show
and talk about the Opie-Foo. So give me a call back. Also I have some information
on the Clint so I can talk about that too. Alright, I'll have the guy thing. Isn't that funny?
Some guy dies, y'all. I can everyone's just like, oh yeah, the information on the Clint,
and it's my only chance. What does he know about Hillary? Oh man. I love it. I love it, that's a fig, but everybody knows. So this is getting back to Mr. Loaf, was pointing out that I don't talk real good.
Hey, I just wanted to point out that it's really incredible that you're in advertising because
you really have hard time pronouncing words
because now you just came up with a new one with the uh...
suntents
word as they go along with your uh...
exactly
you must be incredible in the board board call me back
suntents?
what do they say?
maybe you meant to say so intense and you said sometimes
Possibly I do tend to talk very fast sometimes
That's what I should slow your roll. All right
That's all we wanted to play we'll be back next week with our regularly scheduled programming
We're doing some improv show. It's like a game show with improv sound pretty terrible to me. Yeah, it's gonna be pretty terrible
So we'll be back with that next week. Please join us because it might be that we find out what's for all who are these podcasts
Sleep well every pony sleep well and have a little nappy poo
Okay great show.
Good job, everybody.
Great job, everyone.
You fucking know all about this shit.
Cuts.
Cuts a room., cause a row.
Yeah!
And so, wait!
I'm thinking of it.
Wow!
Oh!
I'm over here!
Back to the layout. Oh
You know who are these podcasts, I don't know I don't get it makes no sense
You know what else I'm gonna miss without Carl being on the show anymore What?
Hope you're doing things like this. Carl, he's got a cushy poo.
For some reason, Opie just turned into a child
when he was having fun with Carl Ruiz.
He's not like that with Vic or Sharad or any of the other guys.
So we're gonna miss that.
Yeah.
The one thing that I'll say that is not funny,
but it's very funny.
Someone wrote out the subreddit that Carl's taking a dirt nappy poo.
I feel like he would have appreciated the joke.
I think so too. I know I did.
All right, that's enough.
Okay.
Okay.
