Who Are These Podcasts? - Ep66 The Weed Show
Episode Date: July 17, 2017This week we review The Weed Show which is hosted by the zany Chris Iacono. And by zany I mean retarded. It's apparently a show that is made for stoners but we've never met a stoner who was interested... in talking about lizard people. If you're the kind of person who likes their comedy podcasts to have zero jokes and a dash of anti-semitism than you're going to love The Weed Show. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Who Are These Podcasts.
We listen to podcasts that you don't have to, I'm your host, Carl.
With me today, once again, is Kroge.
Welcome back.
Good afternoon.
Thank you so much for having me.
I'd like to remind our listeners that you can visit us at whoarethese.com, our Facebook
page, or on Twitter, and who are these pod.
If you like what you hear, don't forget to give us a positive five-star review on iTunes
or Google or now Stitcher or wherever you get the show from.
Today we'll be reviewing a podcast called The Weed Show.
Kroge and I have both listened to the show separately, we have not discussed it with each other beforehand.
So I'm looking forward to discussing this one with you.
Crojan, what do you think?
Oh boy.
I mean, do you want the spoiler alert right off the bat?
I sure do.
Oh my god, this was fucking awful.
What?
This was a chore.
Are you kidding me?
No, hold on a second.
This was hosted by a guy named Chris Icono,
who is a self-reclaimed comedian.
Indeed.
And if you don't think this guy's a comedian,
just listen to the way he adjoins the show.
Oh yes, it's the weed show.
What y'all is truly Chris Iacono.
Isn't that what jokes are when you just sing song things
and say things in a funny voice?
That is pretty fantastic, yeah.
I mean, the hilarious.
This guy's great.
All right, so right off the bat, let's go.
It's W-A-T-P!
Let's show about other podcasts.
Let's rip the shit out of this podcast.
So I hear the weed show and I'm thinking like,
this could go one or two ways, you know what I mean?
Like, there's a thing out there at the Mary Jane report,
and it's a really well researched podcast,
it's a forum where they talk about the medicinal research,
they talk about the legal aspects, which is really fascinating stuff.
And like I'm thinking of crap this time.
Yeah, it's gonna be rough.
That sounds boring to me.
And then the other thing is like, you know,
cannabis culture hasn't really changed all that much since teaching Chong
We're talking about, you know, being high fruit or whatever. So
But this this one didn't stoop exactly that low it went on to a whole different thing
So the the first thing I heard if you don't mind and this has got a little bit of that clip you played
But if you play my number one, this is the first thing that I heard. Okay. Let's get high and listen to the weed show. Oh yes, so oh Yes, it's Chris I a go no
The all right, let's get high and listen to the weed show
I can't think of a worse fucking way to spend a Saturday afternoon than that my friend right um
Yeah, I mean the one thing I'll give it is it's mercifully short, you know what I mean true
Not everybody's got the live free bird version of podcast intro is like w a tp, but man
free bird version of podcast intro is like w atp but man
Faradah this was like all right. Yeah, so we're out of the bat that hits my ears and
The the guys accent kind of threw me. I mean by the end of the podcast I I think it's genuine you know what I mean?
But at first I really like it sounds like an impression you know what I mean?
It sounds like he sounds like he's putting on an affect in goofy and zany.
Or like, you know, auditioning for a role in the sopranos
or something like that.
I don't know.
I actually picked up on it.
I thought it had a Boston accent a little bit.
And I'll tell you why I think that.
I was listening to him talk.
This show had multiple segments.
He starts off with news.
And then he goes into this whole segment
about giving him money. And then they get other people,
well, then he goes into the name that strain
and does what we'll get into that.
We'll get that.
And then they talk about lizard people at the end.
No, do they?
I mean, yes.
Yeah, so this is him talking about lizard people,
and then I'm going to play you a clip of a guy
that I actually like a lot that this reminded me of.
The lot of nerds that show up wanting to play with you as a dragon.
Lizard people are pretty much left alone because they, I think they run the banking system.
Seriously, think about who benefits from global warming.
Lizards.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It gets hotter and wetter.
Yeah, Lizards.
This is all manufactured by Lizard people.
Yeah, well, it's just two well-sized like that about lizard people.
The Sparrow's Theory has gotten a bad name.
We're now, it's become synonymous with like,
moronic thought, like, if you end a conspiracy theory,
if you think like the bankers need to be stopped,
then you also think the moon is made out of cheese.
And you think that the shapeshifters and like, lizard people.
That's where I billburr my boy.
I picked up up at first,
I think when we were clipping it last week,
the Joan Andy, the twins there were saying
that it sounded like a guy doing a dice impression,
but it sounded to me like that Bill Burr
bossed an accent,
where it's, yeah, hey, let's all get stoned.
Yeah, maybe.
Boy, I don't know.
So let's talk about.
It's definitely not a Denver accent
No, he does the show out of oh
Oh, this is not where people from dead. This is not a video. I'll tell you what dude if I was doing a show about smoking weed
I would say I was in Colorado. That's true. It's a good point. Yeah cover your ass
So let's can we talk about this lizard people thing here? Sure as you mentioned the show is broken up into segments
And this last segment. I mean, I called it insane fucking blathering.
Right. If you know my hit number 11, where they kind of set up where they're going here.
Sounds good. And I should mention that it's just this one host. And then at the end, for some reason,
two other unexplained people are, yeah, this is the panel segment. They don't have the panel
segment. They don't introduce anyone at all just as well, because they don't copy anything.
It doesn't, it doesn't. It's a big as well because they don't fight anything.
It doesn't it doesn't make a big way.
All right, here we go.
So once again, for those listeners,
Deluminati is a gathering of conspiracy theories by Stone is forced owners.
Now, not that I've ever smoked weed or broken laws in my country,
but I've been adjacent to a few people smoking marijuana at, you know,
at a party one time in high school.
And like, is that, is that what's supposed to be going on here?
Are we supposed to be talking about lizard people
and fucking moon landings and what?
Well, I love that he puts out this disclaimer
that's right a part of that clip that I just played
where he says, don't take this conversation seriously.
This is just for entertainment.
This is a comedy show.
Take, okay, you're pretty disclaimer
for your conversation about lizard people. Yes. Okay, I promise Chris, I won't take this seriously. You got it. Yeah.
No worries. That is kind of implied. That's like, that's kind of a fly. That's kind of the
May contain peanuts label on the bag labeled peanuts. You know, right. So now what I found fascinating
about this was they had an actual fucking lizard person on the panel right and if you hit number 13
you'll get to hear from a real lizard person what it's like to be a lizard person. I've been a lizard person
hmm that's true that's actually what it drew what drew him to you was was your lizard personality
turbosanel your facial lizard paint yes yes but Yes, but you were weren't like, you know, you didn't take off like a human mask at night and
be like, I'm actually a lizard.
But you assumed the form of a lizard person.
So to what, what can you tell us about, you know, in your experience being a lizard person,
like how did your, did you feel sudden urges to dominate worlds and create secret societies?
Lizard person like wants to hide on a rockysard Persson wants to control the banking system.
I was pretty disappointing.
Yeah, that I couldn't fly.
Like I want to fly and I can't do the world.
All right, now I apologize for the length of that clip.
But, well, it does show the absurdity of this conversation that makes zero sense.
Absolutely.
After how it stoned you are.
Absolutely.
It goes nowhere.
Absolutely.
So, the, it's an eight minute segment that I listened to three times to try to like,
how can I summarize this? Like, how can I pull a clip that like explains?
Because they only spent a minute of it, like, sort of disgusting lizard people, and it's
in such a weird fucking way. And they're like, hey, I am a lizard person, and they go for,
they ask a fucking eight minute question, Terry Gross style. And then her answer is,
well, I was disappointed I couldn't fly.
And I wish there was more to it than I could explain,
but that was it.
That was the whole fucking thing about,
I was fucking flabbergasted by this.
I don't know how much fucking weed you'd have to smoke
or how many times you'd have to just bludgeon yourself
with a fucking brick for this to make any fucking sense.
So I actually wrote down in my notes
that I don't think weed works for me
because there's no amount of weed you can smoke
to make this entertaining or fun or funny.
So I'm guessing that I don't have the same reaction
that stoner's quote unquote have
if they're finding this entertainment.
I've met a few people that smoke marijuana
I've never ever ever heard one of them say hey man, I'm about to fucking lizard people
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, that conversation has never come up.
Absolutely.
You know, when we're talking about who actually played on the Pink Floyd animals album,
that's the conversation I've had multiple times.
Yes.
But the lizard people thing, not once.
Absolutely, absolutely.
But thankfully for us, they did inject some some humor if you don't mind hitting number 12
This is the this is a big joke about the look good. I was hoping you're gonna play some jokes
Those dragons I know are like just hoarding wealth in a mountain like they're on a map
They're sitting on a mountain of gold eating dudes like that's awesome
That doesn't make them wise that just makes that just makes them per Jewish
Now for those
just makes that just makes them part Jewish.
Now for those.
Indeed for those you like a little side anti-Semitism, we're wrong.
Right.
They got you covered, but also that illustrates that so they
introduce lizard people and then they start talking about
dragons over and over again.
And somehow they they veer into like dungeons and dragons and
dragon.
Oh my God.
This was fucking on God.
So that was the last segment.
I haven't spoke before.
I think there's four segments.
Yeah.
I split it up into four, although you could say two A and two B.
I mean, you know, so there's this part where it's bud
of the week.
Oh boy.
And this is what happens.
This cataract bush.
Oh yes it is.
So this is what happens during this segment,
the bud of the week segment.
He talks about a certain strain and then explains what it looks like goes into
Detail about what this butt of marijuana looks like and I kind of get
High times magazine they have the big pictures of
Yeah, that's what and you know, I knew kids in high school and having up on their wall
And yeah, I think it's with their locker.
Sure, I can almost understand, like,
wow, that bud looks like it would get you very high.
But we have the internet now.
I don't think we need someone to explain to us
what a bud looks like.
That seems like a giant waste of time.
I can look up any bud that you want to tell me what it looks like.
I could do a Google search. Which gave me an idea.
Okay.
What if the next podcast we did was just called Google image search.
Oh, I like it.
We just explained photos to people.
Yeah.
In fact, our first episode is going to be called Mylacoonus' Feet.
Oh, I like it.
I'm looking forward to that one.
Yeah.
So definitely call in with your suggestions.
Absolutely.
And don't forget to vote for your favorite
To on our patreon page. How's yeah, how's yeah? Yeah, this this whole but thing so
All right, I don't know where the fuck they're going with this it was like like I see there's like cooking podcasts out there now
Yeah, and like
Like even that's puzzling to me
But I sort of get it because maybe there's some cooking advice or something like some technique who could maybe explain it.
What the hell?
Cooking channel on television, right?
I get that.
But that's TV.
On TV, I can show you here.
Yes, that's the pair, that's the pair, that's the pair.
This is, I mean, there's cooking audio, this fucking name, the Bottle Audio, it would be
like a drinking beer podcast where we're just like, okay, this beer looks like this and
it smells like this and whatever.
I mean, if you, yeah, hit number number seven where they this is where they set up this
this fucking thing here. Oh yes it's Bud of the Week where yours truly uses his keen
sense of guido smell and taste to examine the flavor profiles of cannabis. So I'm fucking
amazed right there. Number eight's where we hear about the strain itself because that's
fucking pertinent information
for the podcast audience.
Cataract Cush is a combination of LA Confidential and OG Cush.
So that's all clear to you now, I'm sure.
You know exactly what we're talking about.
You can picture it in your mind.
And just in case you can't,
number nine's where we talk about the flavor
of this amazing butt.
I wanna say it's got an earthy type of citrus flavor to it.
Definitely got some, got some earthy, some mud, awesome, really like, it's got an earthy type of citrus flavor to it definitely got some got some earthy as some mud awesome really like it's got a
Mmm sweet mud like a camping camping in a forest maybe but not the burning until we burn it actually delicious delicious
What is he talking about so sweet mud when you're camping what the fuck is going on here?
Who is this for?
Who is listening to this and entertained by it?
I don't know and also like
How available is this is this in two shops in Colorado like who gives a fuck?
Yeah, who gives a fuck? You know is even if I could get a hold of this and I really like
Are people smoking weed for the flavor profile? Who gives a shit who gives a fuck?
Thank you, Steve Langford. I I totally hear you there
I was fucking flabbergasted buy this segment. Yes. I was
concerned as to why he feels the need to put in. I think he just wants to be a comedian to tell jokes. Yeah
And so he has to talk about weed in the order to get listenership because it has to be the weed show
Yeah, so I think he has to put this kind of thing in to justify the title of the podcast because what the fuck is the point of it?
Yeah, I just don't get it and you know the one guy in front of a microphone thing. It's that's tough to pull off, you know, um
And if you're done with this segment, I have we we flew it let's call it to be okay
This is we're done describing a particular type of marijuana.
And now we're going to come up with names for an imaginary type of marijuana.
Now here's how this works.
People send this guy names.
So they're going to send him two or three words, fucking fruity pebbles.
And then for each of these, he spends a minute each just Riffin on the two or three word title and all right look. I'm sorry to advance for the link to this one
But here's number 10. This is him describing a a listener submission for the name of the button
Moving on next submission comes all the way across the ocean
From the UK
Alex in the UK writes
UK Alex in the UK writes
dank Delma dank Delma. Ooh I like it Delma sounds like a woman. I would want to smoke a joint with and she's dank and she's a she
Which is also appropriate dank Delma?
It's like a little old lady on the block dank Delma sounds like a Thelma's mom like if Thelma from school
We do had a mom which I'm sure she does everybody's got a mom
But if you met ever met Thelma from Scooby-Doo had a mom, which I'm sure she does, everybody's got a mom. But if you met Thelma's mom in the show, it'd be like, who's this?
This is dank Delma.
That's why Thelma was so awesome on Scooby-Doo.
Great granny dank Delma.
Could be a rap name too.
Missy Elliott's smoked that stuff featuring dank Delma.
Yeah, that is insane banter.
Where is he going with that?
Now, it's just whatever pops into his head, it's like, guys, sounds like Thoma from...
It could be due, which is a fucking nothing.
It's free association, it sounds like a therapy session
in a mental institution for the criminally insane.
It's like, now he does like five of those.
So that's just like one little segment.
Can I give you a couple of examples?
Please do, please, I'd love to hear them.
Okay, so he is praising
his listeners who've sent in these suggestions because they're so clever in the name
the strain contest. I can't believe how very creative everybody is and how hilarious
they are with things like this. Monroe and Ninhwa C writes in very, very humble dump, very, very humble dump.
Hmm, very, very humble, dumb and he rips on that one too.
And then this is a good one.
So Chrissy from LA sends in this, this name.
And this is how he rips on this one.
I would imagine that's, I'm totally hold on.
Before I do that, I should set this up.
She's, she calls it better cheddar number five.
Number five.
Okay, that's her name submission.
I mean, this has to be a 13 year old, right?
I can't imagine.
I can't imagine.
All right, so that's the setup.
This is him talking about it.
I would imagine, that's, I'm totally imagining
that's how people from LA talk.
Better cheddar, number five.
Like people from LA just scream random stuff out
because they're in LA and you got nothing better
to do in LA.
Is that a stereotype of LA?
There's nothing to do there.
Yeah, we do in LA.
What are you gonna do?
There's nothing to do there.
I mean, you're trapped in LA.
What a boring shit down there.
You just sit there and yell out names of cheese.
Yeah, I know.
That makes zero sense.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So after the Google Image Search podcast,
I have the idea.
Okay, what do you want to do?
Let's collect listener submissions for names for an imaginary breakfast cereal. Oh, yeah, that's perfect
Yeah, that sounds great. I and then we'll just do like three minutes each somebody will come in and be like fucking sugar flakes
And we'll be like dude that reminds me of the fucking Aspen mountains or some shit. I think very very
Huffle dump would actually be a pretty good.
All right, let's see now I'm gonna get into this trap.
Indeed, indeed, we're talking about this.
Yeah, this was, this, this was, this was painful.
I mean, if the guy would have just, hey, here's the things I got
and just write them off, it would have been still boring,
but it would have been 14 seconds as opposed to the day.
But what is the point of it? It's not clever, it's not interesting.
You can call it anything you want
This doesn't even exist. It doesn't even exist So speaking of naming things that don't exist
He has on here. He's trying to figure out what to call his listeners
Here's here's the clip
We still have a come up with a name for what to call our fans if you can think of something that works
Please message that too
If you can think of something that works, please message that too. Gross, I actually came up with the
David Letterman style top 10 list.
Oh, yes.
Names that you could use for the fans of the weed show.
From the home office.
From the home office, number 10, Dopes.
I like it.
Number nine, non-existent
Number eight societal burdens
Sorry, that's my best policy for a bread. Yeah, if you could pull shape for this for me that would help me out a lot
Number seven the heart of hearing
Number six
Come again at number, shitheads!
Ha!
Ha!
Ha!
Uh, number 5!
Uh, number 5, top 10 things that you call the fans of the Weet Show, tweens!
Ha!
Ha!
Oh!
Number 4, douche chards!
Yes sir! Number 3, douche chards. Yes sir.
Number three, Virgins.
That would be a good name for the listeners of the Weed Show.
Number two is dim-witted doll dingo berries.
I like it.
That would actually, he might actually use.
He seems to like berries a lot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And the number one name of the fans for the weed show is assholes
hey
I love it
all right let's try to fade this out my South Board diet on me. There you go, these things happen.
These things happen.
So, alright Carl, but before we even got to naming things, and describing the photos,
it was the news of the week, and the insane blathering, we talked about the news.
Now here's the thing, you may disagree.
The cannabis law is pretty fucking interesting, man.
What's going on in this country is fascinating.
The state, federal thing, the new administration is,
it's as bad as fucking heroin and stuff, but yeah, it's crazy.
Boring.
All right.
But it's still fucking interesting, man.
So, I mean, what's the interesting part?
All right, good point.
So, never did I think that these sound bikes would work so well.
I gotta have you back more often, Chris.
These drops are lined up perfectly.
I guess so. I was, I was both of this, man. Look at how I tie it.
So, you know, there's rumors going out on the internet that I do this shit and post.
I'm not doing this shit. This is a real time. I'm the real time kid.
I was voted most likely in high school to put drop-sitting real-time. I don't know if you knew that about me.
But this is something that only real close friends,
not anyway.
I was voted most likely to talk to weirdos and abacements.
So we're both coming to earlier.
So we talked about one and only one news story
of what's going on in the world of cannabis.
And here's the intro.
This is number two, which sets up the story.
Breaking news out of Miami.
I don't say that sentence too often.
Miamians, I believe that's what they call, have thrown a medical marijuana party, air quotes
with 50 pounds of weed and have been arrested.
That is bad news.
This guy is hilarious.
Are you kidding me?
I don't see that sentence too often.
Breaking news out of my hippie.
Yeah.
First of all, he's killing me.
No news ever comes out of Florida.
What the fuck are we talking about?
Now, this comes, this comes like, this is 10 seconds after let's smoke weed and listen to the weed show.
Carl, you know what's really, really fun to talk about when you're smoking weed?
People getting busted for smoking weed.
People going to jail for smoking weed, dude.
That's my favorite fucking job. It's pretty fun. You don't need to be like any I mean like I said
I never smoke weed but sometimes you walk by people they're smoking weeds are like man wouldn't be
great if we like all got arrested for breaking the launch it so here's the story. Oh yeah
They got 50 pounds of weed and then got arrested for it which is gonna shock you when you hear number
three which is the explanation of the story. It appears that the house that they were partying at was only six blocks from the Miami Police
headquarters.
Oh, oh boy.
Oh boy.
Oh boy.
No.
Oh boy.
You know, you skipped over and I hope I'm not stepping on you.
I think we probably had a lot of similar clips here because it was pretty painfully obvious
what we were going gonna goof on. But when he, you know, this guy just goes off
on these tangents, they're just hilarious.
And when he talks about this party in Miami,
he can't help but talk about how it's probably like
a rap video.
Oh yeah.
And this guy has obviously seen a lot of rap videos
in 1993 because this is how he explains it.
I think it was probably, it was like,
look like a rap video. everybody in a pool hanging out
bikinis throwing plants big giant plants 50 pounds
There's got to be two or three pound blunts floating around this crazy pool party with you know who's yin yang twins
The show up with dr. Drey shows up biggy shows up again
But two pocket rises from the grave. They'll come back a big old party in Miami. That's what I would imagine happen
Yeah, I was equally puzzled by that That's what I would imagine happen. I thought that was pretty funny because, okay, 50 pounds of weed, so of course the bluds have to be 2 or 3 pounds.
Yeah.
I mean, obviously that's how that would work.
So, all right, perhaps our fine host here hasn't traveled much or maybe doesn't get
exposed to other cultures. Like so far, there's nothing to do in LA when you're in Miami, you fucking party with
two-pots ghost with an elephant smoking a blonde or something.
Oh, you ever got into the elephant yet?
Oh, look at there.
Oh, look, look, I have a clip about that.
This is him again.
Just riff it.
So the cops, I apparently were like, what, hey, what hey buddy look that elephant is smoking a blunt in your pool
We can't allow this. I know it's Miami
but
We can't be having this in the streets guy
The only elephant here is the fact that this guy has zero comedic chops. I think that's the elephant that we're talking about
Yeah, it's all it was just with him riffing.
He's like, there's a party in Miami.
So what would that look like?
It's a rap video.
No, no, no, no.
There's an elephant in the pool smoking a blunt.
Yeah.
I mean, if that doesn't make you just fall down laughing,
I don't know.
What are you?
Just, you have no sense of humor at all, girls?
What's the problem?
I mean, you know, Miami is famous for their elephants.
He does snow a fence. as the joke in here.
That's right.
Yeah.
Here's number four.
This is the high point humor of the news segment.
All right.
That's like easy pickings.
That's a low fruit.
Don't throw a party, make yourself low fruit.
You got to be high fruit.
You get it?
High fruit.
All right.
I don't get it.
So what does he mean?
And this is what I was kind of afraid of is like, you know
cannabis culture bumper stickers for 20 many get it for 20 get it because that's when you smoke weed
Because that's when you smoke weed like that's this is literally the fucking level we're dealing with
All right, so the talks about this whole party and they get busted because medical marijuana is legal but not recreational in Florida.
So this is the big punchline to his big ramp.
Yes.
So that's what you should have said, Mr. Regara.
All you have to do is walk up to the cops and be like, no, officers, don't you mind that elephant smoking a blunt in the pool and that polar bear chained up to the palm tree?
We all got
AIDS. And the cancer. Our AIDS has cancer. Yeah, I mean, that one fell a little flat. I mean, for me,
AIDS as a punchline usually works. Yeah, cancer is also hilarious. Right up there. Yeah, that one didn't
necessarily land, I don't think. Yeah, I mean, mean This is where I'm gonna give him a little bit of credit. Oh, okay. I liked it
He's trying to give helpful legal advice to the listeners. You know what I mean?
Listen you get pulled over
Car smells a little bit. Maybe there's a roach on the dashboard or in the ashore whatever right cop
I know what's going on. You can say listen officer my A test cancer and you know, this is just medicinal and
That I'll give you that. He does say, he does say that he's not a lawyer. Yes. And actually, I put together a
mini compilation here. These are all the things that Chris isn't that sorry, because he talks a lot
about, there's a lot of disclaimers I guess you could say. I'm not going to tell you how to party.
I'm not going to tell you how to live your life. Now, I'm no lawyer. Don't forget, I'm not gonna tell you how to party. I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life. I'm no lawyer Don't forget. I'm not a doctor or anything. So I'm not giving you medical advice. I've never seen a lizard person
These are all things that did not need to be declared. I was pretty sure he wasn't a lawyer or a doctor or his hung out with lizard people
Yeah, I kind of knew that actually I just before we move away from this news store. That's just
hilarious
out of these people getting busted partying in Miami.
And you might have heard him reference this polar bear.
When he talks about the cops coming up to the guy
who's throwing the party, this is again,
this guy's quick-witted.
You could tell, he does a lot of prep
before doing this show because he comes up with gems
like this.
He walked up to the offices and he said the party was his.
Okay, look, dude, dude.
I noticed guys probably hold it a pink collada
wearing short shorts dancing on top of a polar bear
chained up to a palm tree, but.
What?
Wow, and what scenario is it a funny thing
that someone in Miami is dancing
on a polar bear chained up to a palm tree?
Yeah.
What the fuck is this guy talking about?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, maybe, and you know me, I am very much libertarian, I want to see our drug laws completely off the books, I want to legalize everything.
Absolutely.
But after hearing this, I'm thinking maybe it does brain damage.
And maybe marijuana isn't good for you.
Yeah.
And would somebody please think about the children?
Well, here's the thing.
I don't think and, you know, this debate is raised for many, many,
many moments.
Right.
I don't think we've necessarily makes you stupid, but stupid people.
Sure love smoking.
That's the correlation right there.
It's not a cause of the fact.
Yeah.
That's the correlation.
That's the problem, you know.
And so he, we went off for eight minutes on this story in Miami. And again, talking about his show prep that I don't know much time he puts into a 26 minute show.
I'm guessing a week because this was how he tied it all up in a bow.
Now, I'm no lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that is a much better defense
than rolling up to the cops riding along on two crocodiles smoking buns
Which is just how I imagine all parties in Miami go
Florida
Can you believe it?
You always stepping on a crocodile's a Florida. I right. That's how I imagine it
I definitely spent more time trying to parse out what the fuck this guy was talking about
And he spent trying to fucking put any of this together. I'm convinced of that all right, so
This was a fun little clip where he's asking for money. Did I make you live? Do we make you live?
Do you think with funny people? No, sorry. No you lose
So he's he gets out of the
newspaper and he's like, hey, isn't this wacky and great in this
fun? So why don't you go to our Patreon page and he asked for a
dollar a month. I listened to a newer episode. Oh, then this
episode. You fucking glutton for punishment. I am. And I'm glad I did because he goes off on this
Patreon bit.
It's most of the show where he just talks about donating
to a show.
It starts at about the five minute mark
and it goes to about the eight and a half minute mark.
And I have a bunch of clips
because I want to break this down for you.
Yeah.
This is like a PBS pledge drive for New Jersey Stoners.
It's exactly like that,
because you get a tote bag and everything.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, so check this out.
What do we do?
Is it a tote bag?
Oh, yeah.
Get it?
Just talk, just marijuana speak for smoke, dude.
So this is him talking about how he has a Patreon page,
and he just sets it up.
So special, special thanks to Carla, Matthew, and Josh.
You guys are the best. We super appreciate the donations.
And if you haven't checked out our Patreon already, please do.
Alright, so I've missed my Patreon.
Yes, I'm sorry, we don't have a Patreon page, maybe we should.
We're getting people to donate to this show. Oh shit get a get a Patron page
Yeah, my bad tequila for our listeners. All right, so this is talking about the one dollar level
so you can go on patreon and
Donate a dollar a month and what do you get for that?
Cros you ask oh, I'm can't wait to hear all right. Well check this out. It seems like a steal at the one dollar level
Not only will you get a big ol' thank you, Leta, for me, digitally, but you're gonna get a shout out and you get to vote.
So we'll have a bunch of bits that we might do for that month, and we'll put out a poll,
and if you're a donor at the $1 level, you get to vote on what you wanna hear next on the show.
Dude, for $1, I will fucking control VU and email.
And you won't believe.
It's exactly the opposite.
He's gonna forward you an email here seven months ago.
Good, God.
I'm gonna send you a letter electronically.
I mean, what am I gonna do?
Get out and actually write something.
Yeah.
So I went on his website and he does have the July name
that strain contest.
And it is a poll that you can take.
It's got all three strains that you can vote for.
Ooh.
You have the very, very humble dump.
Of course.
The better cheddar, number five, and the dank Delma.
And what's great about this is it says,
it's totally free to vote exclamation point.
Are you kidding me?
I can interact with this show for free.
Okay.
But you'll need to sign in to our Patreon
Oh, and if you become our become our Patreon for as little as a dollar a month
You'll get exclusive content not made to the public
Mmm. If you're into that sort of thing smiley face. Yeah, so this is again this guy is good bad
He figures out all the right ways to get people to donate because all I want to do is vote for very very
Humpholdump. I want to do is vote for very, very humble dump.
I want to vote for it so bad that I'm probably going to have to sign up for Patreon and then
have to contribute.
So, all right, I'm sorry.
Let me get back to this.
I'm going back to the show.
Now, this is talking about the $2 level.
Woo!
All right, let's see what you get for that.
All right for my blood.
The $2 level.
At the $2 level, you get access to all the crazy high res digital artwork and wallpaper
that you may have seen on our website without the weed show branding.
Consider it high res digital cannabis art created by yours truly.
For you, at the $2 level.
You get a JPEG.
Are you fucking kidding?
For just $2 a month, you will email you a jpeg dude for two bucks
I will email you the fucking jpeg that I put on my website already
What the fuck are we talking about I will hide the layer that is our logo in Photoshop and then save as I
Then send that to you and if you think I'm gonna send you a 96 DPI photo, listen again, my friend.
Yeah.
This sucker is gonna be at least 150.
I can't wait to put that up on my screen at work,
my desktop background of just...
Well, you know, that's our saving and cutting.
That's it.
That's at $2.
Now, $1.2, I think we can all contribute that.
Of course.
But the next level, now this is the next level
Hmm at the four dollar and 20 cent level. Yes, you can donate four dollars and 20 cents a month to the weed show
This is where it gets good guys. You're gonna get behind the scenes audio. I mean that
Okay, okay, I stopped it there because I want that to sink in for a second. I'm hiding the scenes audio
Okay, okay, I stopped it there because I want that to sink in for a second. I hide in the scenes audio
Behind the scenes audio of a guy alone in his fucking bedroom, but this is this is the weed show
Yeah, but it's this is the weed show. What do you mean?
What fucking like what's the shit that's too fucking boring that oh doesn't get I have the answer to that so
This was this was part of a larger segment. I wanted to put the break here
because I do need to be pissed off about this.
To me.
All right, so here's what we find out
about this awesome behind the scenes audio.
That's a, these are outtakes.
These are cuts that never aired ever anywhere.
They're not on the public feed.
We have over two hours of unreleased hysterical
behind the scenes and deleted scenes audio.
All right, two things.
Before you go, two things.
All right, all right.
So if there is hysterical audio in this guy's put out,
I would make that available.
Yeah.
It would make it more popular.
So if you have any of this is true,
there's hysterical audio,
go ahead and make that available to the public number two
Does this guy think his show is an anchor man blue ray?
That's the only time I see anything being marketed as you get the
Outtakes you get the deleted scenes. Well, here's here's what I'm hearing two hours of this guy mispronouncing shit
And not over the long under the fucking keyboard and fucking getting Dorito chips and it's probably weird probably getting the giggles
I would imagine happens a time to time.
Two hours of fucking shit. I caught out of my awful fucking
Oh, I just I just looked at the face I made in the mirror. This is hilarious people. Oh, God. I could only imagine oh
Fuck so you you would think one dollar two dollar four twenty. That's where it ends. Oh, no
Oh, no, there is an even higher level. Higher than
420? That you could donate. Dude. And then we have the final tier, the $10 a month level.
If you donate $10 a month to the weed show, not only do you get all the other things,
you get everything else I just mentioned. But I will mail you a signed weed show poster. A signed poster?
Can you imagine this shit had?
Is so myopic that he thinks his signature is worth something to someone.
I mean, if this poster were interesting at all, I'm going to get into what this poster
is, I'm a second.
I can't wait.
I would ask him to please now ruin it with your fucking pen.
Don't put any markings on it
I don't know who you are
Chris I a Kondo
No one knows who you are good. All right, so you're wondering what is this post? I am wondering all right get ready for excitement
This might be worth 10 bucks a month and it's not just the weed show logo on a poster
exclusive name that strain world map poster.
That only name that strain winners have had access to until now.
It's a world map made up of crazy strain names
with instructions on the bottom,
on how to use the map to construct a hysterical strain name.
Not only is it a poster,
but it's a stoner game that you can play
every time you walk by it.
Only at the $10 level, not even available for sale on the website.
This guy thinks the name that's train thing is so hilarious.
The people are going to be just making up their own strains and just giggling to themselves
and with their friends.
This poster is going to be the centerpiece in any stoner's living room because it's
just going to be so much fun.
Oh my god.
Hey, Croche, what do you do tonight?
You want to come over and play the name of the straightened game?
I got the Weecho poster. Signed by Chris Icono.
It's a stoner game for every time you walk by the poster, man. This guy, every time you
walk by it. It's the original. This is insane. I don't understand how this exists in the
world that I live in. So it's a different dimension. It's a world map with imaginary names of weed
that people just dreamt of for non-existent shit
and it's put, all right.
Well, you give off, yeah.
It's a game, too.
I think you're missing the point where it's a game.
You roll dice, you move, I had a couple of paces.
But the prizes you get your own wacky stream names, dude.
So I have a clip on here that I call
Liar-liar pants on fire. Don't have it take anything I say seriously. It's comedy show
There's no laughs. What do you mean? I'm not this is not a comedy show. I
Apologize I listen to you two episodes and I can say for sure
This is not a comedy show. We've gotten some negative reviews on our iTunes page.
People saying these guys aren't really reviewing podcasts.
They listen to one episode and they think they know everything.
I know everything there is to know about this podcast.
There is no more research that needs to be done to know.
This is terrible.
You know what amazed me?
So I saw it was, you know, episode four, 29 or whatever.
Yeah.
And immediately, I'm like, oh, I bet he saw it at four 20
because that's just a brilliant thing to do.
Sure.
He said the bodfast has been going for four years.
Yeah, but I don't think he does 100 episodes a year.
I think he does skip, or I don't think
there's been 429 episodes.
OK.
But yes, it's been going on a long time.
So this is him with chops.
I mean, he's been working on this for a while. And, you know, I personally had a long time. So this is him with chops. I mean, he's been working on this for a while.
And you know, I personally had a hard time listening
to the show for 20 minutes.
Yes, I couldn't listen to the show for 20 minutes.
For 20 minutes.
I had a really hard time with it.
Just for 20 minutes, I thought it was difficult.
That's already a higher level comedy
than we've gotten out of the show.
The other thing he talks about on the other show
that I listen to is July 10th.
710 is a new weed holiday.
Have you heard of this?
I have not heard of this.
Okay, me neither.
And I thought you might be more in the know than I am
because you read way more shit on the internet
that nobody cares about that I ever tell.
So I thought maybe you would know.
It actually says that right on my business card.
I saw that.
Yeah.
So 710 is a weed holiday and the reason is,
if you take 710, lip it upside down,
it looks like the word oil, which is short for hash oil.
And I'm not joking, that is the convoluted holiday
that he is celebrating on the next episode.
710 day. Oh, fuck. Is that ridiculous? You were is celebrating on the next episode, seven, 10 days.
Oh, fuck.
Is that ridiculous?
You were goofing on the 420 thing.
Yeah.
Seven times.
I feel bad.
Why not just have everyday be a weed holiday?
You know, that'd be a really fun life to live.
That's the glorious thing about weed
it kind of makes everyday a holiday.
Right?
You know what I mean?
Yeah, exactly.
And why do we need another stoner holiday?
I mean, stoner's already take off Hitler's birthday
and smoke through the hearts of light of 420.
Like, is this like Stalin's birthday
is wild or something?
I don't know.
I don't know what's going on here anymore.
I don't know.
I'm fucking lost.
I don't think I can have any more to say about the weed show.
I'm surprised it exists the way that it does,
and that it's been around for so long.
And it's depressing.
Indeed.
Frankly, it's depressing.
But you know what I asked from Good News?
Do you know?
Yeah.
Because you know what time it is?
What time is it?
It is time for...
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser.
The teaser. The teaser. That's a teaser. That's a teaser. That's a teaser. That's a teaser. That's a teaser.
That's a teaser.
That's right.
This is a fan favorite part of the show.
I'm sure.
Kroge, this is a part of the show where we play a teaser clip from the podcast we'll be
reviewing next week.
And when I use the word teaser, do you know what I mean by that?
I feel as though it's like a teasing element of some sort.
This is correct. It's as if to say, man, I want to hear that episode I feel as though it's like a teasing element of some sort. This is correct.
It's as if to say, man, I want to hear that episode.
No, but it's not done yet.
Oh, yeah.
We don't have it.
You go and listen to it.
You can't even listen to it if you go to our Patreon page
because I don't have it.
There's no level of submission that you can give us
420, 560, 710, that would get you this show
before it's ready to go.
But for 11, 11 a month, we'll name your breakfast cereal 40.
So the teaser clip is something that people write to me and they say,
you know, I don't listen to your dumb show.
I just pass forward.
I just want to get to the part where you're teasing next week's show.
Of course, it's the part that everyone gets excited.
The meat. It's the heart of the show.
It's the heart of the show, you know.
And that's why we wait until the end of the show,
because I want to build towards this part of the show. You know, and that's why we wait until the end of the show, because I want to build towards this part of the show. You know,
everything we've been doing up until this point has been filler. It's just bullshit.
It's been bullshit. Yeah, I think right now, this is the part of the show where people
get excited. They stand up. They sit up. They're ready to hear what's going on. This is a
clip from the podcast. We'll be reviewing next week. So sorry to get all meta and and
Sappy and to break the fourth wall of our phone call.
But seriously, thank you to everybody who listens to our podcast,
who shares our podcast because you know that's just important.
We try to get that money and for everybody who asks about us and emails us and
tweets at us, we read all of your messages and we really appreciate y'all.
And to everyone who hasn't been including us on their best podcast of 2016 lists, um, fuck you. Anyway, um,
this is a podcast called Speed Dial. This is an episode called The Season Finale from December of 2016.
Speed Dial.
Speed Dial, guess which network brings us speed dial?
It's one that we haven't explored yet.
Oh God, I can't imagine.
This would be the MTV Network.
MTV has their own podcasts.
They have many of them.
What?
Yeah.
Wow.
So, you know, Crows we're getting up there at age.
We're a little bit out of touch with the youth of today.
I thought it's time for us to figure out what is going on.
Yeah, but with this new generation,
they're listening to the speed dial.
Wow, does, do young people care about MTV?
Does anyone care about it?
Does speed dial still exist?
That's not even a thing.
Oh my God.
Remember when you used to have 10 slots
that you could fill in the phone numbers you would call most often?
And it would speed dial those people? Yeah. That's not even a thing. I had to think about what
is speed dial. I had to try to remember what the fuck that even is. That hasn't been a
thing this whole fucking millennium. I know. I would use speed dials since the 90s. So
I don't know why that's the name of this show. That was from when it was a novelty when
you wouldn't have to remember someone's phone number. I mean, that was an amazing thing. There are ten people I don't have to memorize their the name of this show. That was from when it was a novelty when you wouldn't have to remember someone's phone.
Right, it was an amazing thing.
There are 10 people I don't have to remember
is their phone number.
Everyone else in the world, I have to remember
I have to remember, I have to remember.
I'm also, no way I'm gonna be able to call them.
Wow.
Yeah, so this is gonna be an interesting show
because they talk about 2016.
Mm.
And of course, because they're millennials,
2016 was the worst year ever.
Oh, do you remember that meme? Of course. That was the whole thing. When 2016 was the worst year ever. Do you remember that meme?
Oh, of course.
That was the whole thing.
When 2016 was coming to an end,
Trump is gonna be the president, you know.
And let's not forget these people just learned
about David Bowie and Ollie's dad.
Yeah, exactly, exactly.
Yeah, oh my God, you know, you know,
you had a career in the 70s, dude.
Yeah, holy shit, there's all these times.
Yeah, you used to put like makeup on
and this time was crazy, man.
Oh, so, yeah, so for these kids, 2016 was just a train rock.
Yeah.
Of a disaster because just all the wise they were told throughout their high school and
college careers, it really came crashing down on them.
So this would be an interesting show to listen to.
I'm looking forward to it.
The year in review for Speed Dial.
Yeah, I mean, have I done a better tease than this?
Are you excited about this? I almost want to start doing the show right now.
Yeah, no shit.
Should we just start doing the show right now?
No, we shouldn't.
Because we're teasing it.
That's right.
We're teasing it for next week because people,
we want to make sure you stick around.
It might be the episode we find out once and for all.
