And there's something up, now here comes a great kid you know you can trust From the truth, who's who, to the news and cameras To the fake politics and the propaganda
Starting point is 00:01:08 Yeah, this kid's screwed in, got a lot to say Ah, shit, it's about to be a long day It's a long day, it's a long day What's up everybody, welcome to another episode of Long Days with Giannis Pappas We got Jared Harvin, off camera, on mic Jesse got Jared Harvin off camera, on mic. Jesse Scaturo off camera, on mic. On camera, looking good.
Starting point is 00:01:31 Paul Verzi. Yeah. Welcome. You do know what Stockholm Syndrome is. I do know what Stockholm Syndrome is. Yes. I wonder, because you know what it made me think of?
Starting point is 00:01:41 You just weren't confident when it came up. No, what happened was as soon as you said Stockholm Syndrome, I'm thinking, I'm going, that's a bad situation that you kind of get comfortable in or you want back. But I couldn't say it right, but it made me think of, do you think the women who were locked up in Cleveland for 10 years got that?
Starting point is 00:01:57 Ariel Castro's girls? Because they did get Mickey D's every day from our hair. I'm serious. Do you know that? Yeah, Ariel Castro. He gave them Mickey d's every day and i'm wondering if they were like you know they were like this is a good situation i get a free happy meal like when they think they order sandwich they want to go into a dungeon yeah
Starting point is 00:02:16 nobody ever talks about that part of their day there's the okay there's a lot of horrible stuff okay yeah they're they're being assaulted yeah they're being kidnapped and held against their will but there also was part of the day that was kind of nice you think like when he wasn't there they were like you think he's getting apple pies yeah there was a part of the day where they looked forward to it where he went all right girls i'm going out what do you guys want and they were like give me a number four where he went, all right, girls, I'm going out. What do you guys want?
Starting point is 00:02:44 And they were like, give me a number four. I'll take a number four, large Mountain Dew. Yo, I think they got an Ice Age toy in the Happy Meal. There had to be good parts of the day. Listen, if you're there for 10 years, there had to be some laughter and something that got them through mentally. And I'm thinking the Mickey D's. I'm not even joking.
Starting point is 00:03:06 That has to be because everybody gets happy when you eat, right? Yeah. Anytime you eat, you're Greek. I'm Greek and Sicilian. Eating is a very, we just have pizza. Soon as we bite it, what did I say? How good was that pizza? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Wondering if they're in that dungeon and all those horrible things are happening, you got to have something. And I would imagine it would be Mickey D's. Yeah. Mickey D's is probably a big part. Because the day didn't get better than that. Yeah, no, and there was also probably like a lot of good parts of the day. They probably had like, you know, they had to have some good times.
Starting point is 00:03:35 There were some good times that came, kid came down there, you know. Look, he wasn't the most charming guy. If you're the most charming guy, you don't have to keep somebody held in a basement. But if your audience is people who you are keeping in a basement yeah and you restrict all other entertainment or guys away then you start to see it's like it's like office hop you know you know when you go into an office and you're like you start to find people attractive aren't attractive just because they're in the office. So he becomes like office charming to them.
Starting point is 00:04:07 He's like captor charming. You know what that reminds me of? When Chris Rock was in that movie The Longest Yard, they were in prison. It was just this big guy. He goes, in nine months, he's going to look like Beyonce. It's true. It's Plato's Allegory of the Cave. You measure what you know.
Starting point is 00:04:25 That's all you know. Until you know something different, that's your world. That's your whole world. So yeah, there was probably points where he just came down and he said some funny stuff. They genuinely laughed. They had to have. Yeah, I bet you they had like a Monopoly night.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Maybe they had like a Monopoly night at Ariel Cash. Did he let them watch TV? I don't remember the details, but I don't know if he, I think he did let them watch TV. We talked about it. At some point we talked about it and I think he was, because I remember I made a joke,
Starting point is 00:04:52 do you think it was, I think he let them watch late night and maybe the joke was like, the James Corden show came on and they were like, that's what, no, I was saying like, he was making them watch late night
Starting point is 00:05:05 in order for them to not want to leave because they didn't want to go into a world where that was entertainment. That's funny. But you know what's funny is Cleveland is really one of those only towns that that could happen because you go to Cleveland,
Starting point is 00:05:19 the population's gone, the houses next to each other, some of them boarded up. He probably didn't have any neighbors because the houses were The houses next to each other. Some of them boarded up. So like, he probably didn't have any neighbors because his neighbor, like the houses were probably abandoned next to him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:29 There's nobody in Cleveland. Cleveland's one of those places where when you're at the comedy club, hilarities, which is amazing. Yeah. And the food is amazing. But then you go out
Starting point is 00:05:37 and you're like, it's tough. It's a tough two days alone. Yeah. What do you do when you go to Cleveland? It's a big hotel weekend for me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Yeah. Now, when you're a family guy to Cleveland? It's a big hotel weekend for me. Yeah. Now, when you're a family guy, like now I'm a new family guy. You've been a family guy for 13 years. I started it. You started it. All my friends, everybody couldn't believe it. I was with Stacy in my early 20s. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:59 So you've been a family guy for a long time. Yeah. What a lot of people who aren't family guys, it's very worth it to be a family guy for a long time yeah what a lot of people who aren't family guys it's very worth it to be a family guy not only because it's fulfilling but it also makes things that you take for granted when you're not a family guy yeah incredible yeah it enhances your life because because it makes those little things incredible huge one of those things being when you get a weekend away in a hotel room you can just you can just lay down in that bed like someone shot you with a dart like like the way they put down and i don't know well the thing
Starting point is 00:06:32 is let's get into this okay because here's the thing yannis is my neighbor and one of my favorite things about yannis is when yannis goes down and hees. I've never seen somebody look like a murder victim. He was down. His hands were up like this. It was like if the corner came, like if they said it's the bodies in that room. You actually relaxed like that one time. We were watching the UFC where everything went out,
Starting point is 00:06:57 your arms went back, and you just stayed down. You're a guy that really likes to be down. Greeks know how to relax. Greeks do know how to relax. I thinkks do know how to relax i think there's something to to being like a conquered people i think people who are conquered or enslaved or indentured servitude i think that it's sort of in the culture like when you get your freedom you're like i'm gonna i'm gonna be free i'm not gonna work yeah there's something like subconscious like we just worked against our will for so long,
Starting point is 00:07:26 so now I'm going to fucking chill. So when I get into that position, I don't even think it's conscious. You have that. It's like defiant. It's like I got my freedom. I'm going to use it. That's why you're a type of kid
Starting point is 00:07:37 that'll stroll in 10 minutes late just because. And you're a type of, I mean, you like to fire people. Yeah. I mean, this guy's cleaning lady puts the broom in the wrong place. Her whole staff's out. Dude, that's not me. That's my wife.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Now she's the new cleaning people. She's like, I've had it with these people. They've moved our daughter's curtain. I'm like, why don't you just tell them not to move the curtain? At this point, it's like me with agents. I've gone through all of them. We can't fire these fucking cleaning people. I'm actually on my second lap with agents i've gone through all of them we can't fire these fucking cleaning people i'm actually on my second lap with agents i'm back to apa which i was with dude i have been at every agency i've
Starting point is 00:08:15 never the only one i haven't been is innovative i've never seen anybody with the impatience of you like one thing like you're like you're like me with agents you're like me in a restaurant you're just like one thing happened you're like yeah iists, you're like me in a restaurant. You're just like one thing happens. You're like, yeah, I can't. I'm going to get rid of everybody. Well, you know, yeah. I mean, I made some mistakes early on. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:32 Did I fire Matt Frost too quick? Yeah. But I mean, these guys are so fucking sensitive. They hold a grudge. Like, what's the big fucking deal? You guys are leeching 10% off our money and you're the one who's upset? You don't have to do anything. You don't got to face any audience.
Starting point is 00:08:49 You don't got to fail over and over again. No real flights for you? I mean, no flights, no work. Yeah. No work. Yeah. What's the work? You make a phone call?
Starting point is 00:08:58 You get a guy who pops off and then you fucking take 10% of his money? And you know what? All the flight is arranged by your assistant? Your fucking life is great. Well, here's the thing. Like, you gotta find the right, once you find the right one and they get you in the right rooms
Starting point is 00:09:11 and you're making the right money, but I think there are people along the way, on the way up, that you're like, dude, I'm giving this person money. You know? Like, no, there are some, listen, you gotta make money
Starting point is 00:09:20 and eat with some of these guys that are great. Let's be honest, though. It's not about, really, the right ones that get you in the right rooms you want to have a great relationship with one and you want one who kind of gets the build and helps you and stuff but you get in the right room you get yourself in the right room but apparently you haven't been in stitches in lancaster i said apparently you haven't been in stitches in lancaster yeah no there are some rooms where you're just like fuck i need a better a better guy. No, but when you start,
Starting point is 00:09:46 I need, somebody's got to do a better job than this. No, there comes a point though where you're just, you, the better rooms want you. So the agent's job is easy.
Starting point is 00:09:55 They're just going like, you know, it's basically, their job is to sell you and you make it easy to sell. They just look at your social numbers. They look at, oh, he's, you know, he's selling tickets and then you're in those rooms. You know, so it's like, I'm just saying like, is to sell you and you make it easy to sell they just look at your social numbers they look at eyes
Starting point is 00:10:05 you know uh he's selling tickets and then you're in those rooms you know so it's like i'm just saying like what are they sensitive about there's a few of them that hold the grudge against me and it's like you know what do you what are you sensitive about how many if you had to guess off the offhand how many guys have you axed is it what's the under, your guys axed me, which was karma for me. But yeah, so Marcus and Andrew axed me. They were like, I don't know if we can really do anything for you. And then Hyenas, that was like when Hyenas was popping off. And Chris's guy was booking it.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Doug Edley, who I was with before that, who wouldn't look me in the eye at parties. I mean, these fucking people. Wait, Frost became a big deal? Well, yeah. He was a good agent back then, too. It was just like, you know what? I was asking too many questions. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:57 We were a little early on that era, and I was going like, hmm, wait a second. Why do I got to give you off the gross? But that's also a you thing. That's me. I was at like, hmm, wait a second. Why do I got to give you off the gross? But that's also a you thing. That's me. I was at Giannis' backyard. These poor guys were putting up a jungle gym. And the whole time he's going, what do you think?
Starting point is 00:11:12 Like 10 feet back? I don't think I made a mistake. This is a branch in a way. Remember what I showed you? Yeah, one of the funniest things. So I'm so anal about where the jungle gym goes. Really? Because I want my property so beautiful,
Starting point is 00:11:22 I don't want it to get cut off in a way. So I want to find the most don't want it to get cut off in a way yeah so i want to find the most efficient place for it to be located so it doesn't make the property look smaller and so it's in a good spot so at the beginning i was putting it like right up against my neighbor's property because i wanted it off to the side it was a little close where i wanted it yeah yeah and um so i i wanted it i was so anal about it that I actually called Paul and was like, will you come over just so I can get another set of eyeballs on this? Yeah. I wanted another set of eyeballs on if it was going to be perfect.
Starting point is 00:11:53 Yeah. And I said, I'll be right over. Yeah, he comes over. So when Paul comes over, the guys are doing it, and I'm still deciding. And they don't speak. They don't really. What are they? Typical.
Starting point is 00:12:00 I mean, what are they? Like, yeah, they were like, you know. I like to call them Efficient workers Is what it is I tell you what When it comes to landscaping Or any type of work I'm racist against white people
Starting point is 00:12:11 I just am I'm racist I'll be honest I think I'm racist Against everyone Except Mexicans Any Or South American
Starting point is 00:12:19 Like Latina Yeah Everything Everything It's just like If someone's I'm like White guys
Starting point is 00:12:24 Like you know They give you they want to do emails. They want to do this. They want to give you sales tax quotes. I want to talk to a guy who goes, $3,000. And then you fucking. What time you need? Yeah. Okay, sorry.
Starting point is 00:12:40 And then it's just fucking done, dude. Yeah. Yeah. So Paul comes over. It's the funniest thing. So the guys are like working. First of all, they're putting together a done, dude. Yeah, yeah. So Paul comes over. It's the funniest thing. So the guys are like working. First of all, they're putting together a whole jungle gym. Two of them.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Yeah, this is how the times have changed. Like my grand uncle, my dad could put those things together. My dad used to have a workshop where he would work, and he was a lawyer, but that was back when dads could do shit. Like I'm looking at, imagine me and you had to put that jungle gym together. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:13:04 We'd still be there today. Backwards, it would be be wrong the slide would be going the wrong way upside down we'd be fucking we'd be unfolding directions going wait a second these guys are just hammering together two guys a big jungle gym yeah hammered so paul walks up the steps these guys are working first thing he goes first thing just as a joke he goes he goes no, you guys are going to have to move it back there. And both guys were looking at him like. Yo, yo, the heads just popped up. The heads popped up. No, no, we're going to do something different.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Yeah, we're going to do something different. We're going to put it back there. Because they were like, what? Because they were like half done. And he's like, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Oh, we were laughing, yeah. Here's another thing that's funny about Paul.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I just don't want to repeat anything. I don't remember what we talked about. Yeah. But it's funny. I'm a big sneakerhead. I've been for years. Oh, we never talked about this. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:55 I'm a huge sneakerhead. Me and Jesse, we shot the sneaker keeper, and it was based on something I really believe in that I abide by. My sneaker rules is I got three levels. Yeah. Right? I got my level ones, my level twos, and my level threes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:08 My level ones are like sneakers I rarely wear. And those are the ones I check the weather for. I make sure the weather's good. But when I'm knocking around the house, I'm a croc guy. I got these Adidas-type crocs. And I just slip them on, slip them out. I mean, we're in grass. We're in mud.
Starting point is 00:14:23 We live in the country. This kid comes. He's got no knockarounds he comes around and not only are they not knockarounds fresh you came with all white air force ones almost out of the box yeah to hang out in the backyard um that's like something I don't I don't it's a it's against the law in my life that's like against the law yeah but see I'm the opposite can't see any, you can't see any creases. Like you can't see anything if it's not. Yeah, but you're ruining
Starting point is 00:14:48 the sneaker. You're putting it in jeopardy. You know, yeah. You know the way they say always look your best? It's like a cop going out with a bulletproof vest. There's no knockarounds
Starting point is 00:14:57 with me. I really don't have knockarounds. You have no knockarounds. I come out fresh out of the box. What made you think to put on crisp
Starting point is 00:15:04 Air Force 1s to come over to my house for 40 minutes to look at a jungle gym? I just, you know what it is? I get excited about a fresh pair and I rock those for a while. But I also learned how to walk in that. You got to walk a certain way.
Starting point is 00:15:20 You got to hit your heels. You got to go up and down so you don't get the sides. You ever see me walk on my heels with New Jordans like I shit my pants? Well, Verzi was coming up his driveway. I walk on my heels like I shit my pants. There's video of it. Bartnick and Burr were laughing. I was in Minnesota walking on my heels across the street like I shit my pants.
Starting point is 00:15:37 Actually, Bartnick was in Alabama. He goes, Verzi, what happened to your leg? I go, nothing. These are brand new sneakers. When Verzi walks, he looks like a wounded paintball. Yes. And people want to know. People always say, something wrong with your hip or back.
Starting point is 00:15:50 And I go, no, these are fresh out the box, and I can't crease. You know, I can't crease them. You know, Vladimir Camagno and Damien Lemon did a sketch. Two comics, yeah. Yeah, two comics. Vladimir Camagno and Damien Lemon, they did a sketch called Don't Crease Them. And one of them was walking with a walker. Yeah, I have a really hard time putting on dirty kicks.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Yeah, it's just not something you can do. It's just putting on dirty kicks like when you're about to do something in your day. Plus, I went to help you to look at the jungle gym. But let's say I go, let's say after that, I want to go to the Bobo's Cafe, get a coffee. I go into town. What am I going to wear?
Starting point is 00:16:25 These white girls, I'll tell you what, though, is a trend that I didn't know what's going on. Oh, yeah, they're dirty. And that kid Lev, Lev told me, another comic who's at the stand a lot, he said it's like a trending thing with white, young white women is they like dirty Air Force Ones. It's part of the thing. That's a sin to me.
Starting point is 00:16:41 That's just. That's a fucking sin to me. Yeah, no they they wear sneakers like they were just rescued out of ariel castro's basement it looks like that they just threw those on and that and that's part of like their cool thing part of the cool thing the sneakers represent the men that they're not allowed to like yeah yeah pretty much yeah pretty much yeah no it's the opposite it's the opposite they do the opposite of what someone who loves sneakers does. But I got to give you credit. You influenced me a lot with the sneakers where you said certain things where you're
Starting point is 00:17:09 like, a man can't wear certain sneakers that have plastic and certain things. And another thing, the big one that you said, and you're right. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What do you mean? Like, you know, if there's a pair of Jordans. You're talking about age appropriate, which is what I used to. Age appropriate Jordans. I think I influenced Angela Lozada that way I think I influenced Angelo Lozada that way too,
Starting point is 00:17:28 the late, great Angelo Lozada. Rest his soul, but you're right about that. Yeah, because I used to make fun of him a lot because he got a point like, what was it?
Starting point is 00:17:34 Angelo was, at that time, he was in like his late 40s. Yeah. Right? And then I think he passed. He was in his 50s. So there was a couple times I would see him
Starting point is 00:17:42 and I would make the joke. I'll go, are those kicks Really age appropriate Yeah Did it bother him We would laugh and stuff But you know When someone gets you
Starting point is 00:17:51 It leaves a mark Here's the thing Because then you become Self conscious You go I think he's a little right I can't be walking around In these kangaroos anymore
Starting point is 00:18:00 Yeah And what really got me Was I was wearing A new pair of Jordansans and i saw like a high school girl with them on yeah because i was like oh she went to finish line too yeah she went to footlocker too yeah and it's like there reaches a point where it's like i can't wear the same sneakers that my 10 year old daughter or my 13 year old son's friends have on the same landing in our house when they take them off i can't have that so you do have to like level up
Starting point is 00:18:25 as as the next level even if it means more money which is fine yeah that's one of my other rules so the levels the levels go level one those are the ones you wear wear the rarest like i have i have a pair of tom fords i've worn like three times that's it i got like a i got a high level of sneakers that are rarely seen then i got got the level twos, which are these, which are like during the day, they're pretty clean. And the key to level twos is to have a lot of them. First of all, you got to have a lot of sneakers to platoon them so you can platoon them.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Because if you have just one, they get dirty too quick. I would say I have level twos as well, but I would say that level threes- You came over in a level one. Yeah. I would say for the 90% of the time I wear level ones, I do have twos if I'm running out the door and I grab something. I can't throw on a level one. Yeah. I would say for the 90% of the time I wear a level ones. I do have twos. If I'm running out the door and I grab something, I can't throw on a level three.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Yeah. So level threes are level, used to be level twos. They become level threes because they get to a point where they, like if my sneakers get dirty, I just throw them into the level three category and I can work out with them. Like I never work out in the sneakers that i yeah that's another law i have there's a separation between sneakers i wear that's a death that's the people who fucking wear the sneakers that they work out in they should be shot now that i shot dead well there should be a separate running shoe yeah just for that yeah i
Starting point is 00:19:39 have a whole bunch of workout kicks and then i got the level twos and that's another another one of my big so those are the three levels one two and three and then I got the level twos. And that's another one of my bigs. So those are the three levels, one, two, and three. And then my other big law is the age appropriate. That's what happens. If you look down and you're starting to feel like the sneaker doesn't match your age, and one of the big rules that you mentioned is no plastic on the sneaker. So even my fours, I have a pair of Jordan. I will not wear a pair of Jordan fours,
Starting point is 00:20:02 even though I think they're one of the nicest sneakers of all time because of the plastic mesh and the plastic thing. So I have one pair. What if they're like a custom? There you go. You know I got the pinnacles. So I have the Jordan 4 pinnacles. Are those black or purple?
Starting point is 00:20:15 They're black. Okay. And they got the pony hair. Yeah. And the pony hair offsets it a little bit. The pony hair makes it older. Yeah. And then the buckle part that's usually plastic is metal. Well, I didn't tell you this. I know it it a little bit. The pony hair makes it older. Yeah. And then the buckle part that's usually plastic is metal.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Well, I didn't tell you this. I know it's a little insane, but I stick to those rules. I actually like the rules. I like the rules. You know those pinnacles. You see me wear them. I won't wear level threes. They're fucking fantastic.
Starting point is 00:20:37 When I put those things on, I feel like a superhero. Yeah. Yeah. It's funny it does that, doesn't it? It does. But here's the deal. Something's happening to me Something happened to your friend Paulie
Starting point is 00:20:47 I'm starting to get real classed up I went to the daddy daughter dance And some of these guys are going with their daughters Like they just got off a fucking basketball court I mean it's embarrassing You're going with your daughter It's like a prom This one kid looked like he just got finished
Starting point is 00:21:01 Pumping gas as an attendant Maybe he was at work But some of these guys are walking around You're with your daughter, you're a little girl So last year I didn't love how I was dressed I had dark jeans with shoes I had a black top But I was a little
Starting point is 00:21:14 Because I see guys with suits So I told Stacey, I go this year Just like the fireworks This year, it's going to be big So I get on, full on, full on Nice navy blue suit, yellow tie to match the dress. You went to Banana Republic and got yourself a suit for this? Yeah, I went to Banana Republic.
Starting point is 00:21:29 Target has a new section. So I was looking for a nice pair of wingtips, you know, and I wanted a nice pair of blue shoes with the navy suit. So I go into Brooks Brothers, and they had a pair for like $350. They didn't have my size. They told me another store that had similar, so I went in, got it even for cheaper for like $350. They didn't have my size. They told me another store that had similar. So I went in, got it even for cheaper, like $200. But I put these puppies on and it did something.
Starting point is 00:21:50 It did something with the suit. I mean, the suit's got to be tailored right. When we were growing up, you remember those NBA basketball players in the draft? It looked like they were a clown. It looked like a clown suit. It looked like they were a mascot. But that was the style back then,
Starting point is 00:22:04 was those oversized suits. Jordan would have it, and down past his. But now, you get it almost tapered down. It almost goes tapered down to the ankle with the shoe really showing and the nice jacket. I had the jacket buttoned.
Starting point is 00:22:17 But dude, I looked at these shoes. I kept staring at the shoes, and it was like when I was at your wedding where it hit me. You were just looking at your outfit a lot. I was just looking at it. And my daughter goes, oh, daddy, that's a nice outfit. Look at those shoes.
Starting point is 00:22:29 And I just, it did something. So it was like I wanted to be in a nice car. I wanted to be in a luxury car immediately. Did you go to sleep in that suit that night? No, so I went out. Did you have a hard time taking the suit off? You're going to laugh. Because I know when that happens, when you have a nice suit on at the end of the night,
Starting point is 00:22:42 a few more looks in the mirror before you take it off. No, you're going to laugh. We went to a little after thing with the other dads, and it went on until like 1 in the morning. And they'd go, why is your tie still perfect? I had my tie perfect. And they were like, Paul, can you just undo it? Can you loosen it up?
Starting point is 00:22:56 And I couldn't let it go. I couldn't let it go because it looked too good. I felt good. And, you know, that's like a rookie move to just all of a sudden off and stay in classy the whole night while drinking is a good one. It's a good look. I always loosen the tie. Yeah. I was loosening. I always loosen the tie as the night goes on. You never stayed James Bond the whole night. You gotta stay James Bond the whole night. You stay James Bond the whole night. It does something. It's like a man fucking move, dude. Uh, Brett Ern Brett Ernst. He once said, one of the greatest guys, hilarious comment.

No, here's my... People use the cherry bomb or whatever.
Starting point is 00:31:34 I break out old vintage DeGio. Because when I get to your car, it probably smells like a Bloomingdale's, no? Well, you got a nice scent of leather and aqua. So for your special. Whatever I'm wearing. So everything mixes together nice. So sometimes you got to consider where you're going to be
Starting point is 00:31:58 and what scents are already there to figure out if it's going to be a nice mix. Of course. Especially if I'm going to the gym. Everything has to coordinate. So there's certain perfumes that work better. If you work up a sweat, there's certain scents that are better when mixed with sweat. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:19 They react to your pheromones. A good friend of mine, my cousin, he works in a lab, so we did some tests. All jokes aside, I really do have a cologne guy. He's the best. Yeah, I know. Yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 00:32:35 Virgie told me it was a real story. He didn't tell it like it was a joke. He said he called you, you were on the phone, and then you were like, all right, listen, I see headlights. He said I see headlights.
Starting point is 00:32:44 All right, here, hold on.. He said, I see headlights. Hold on. You got three guesses to guess the ethnicity of the cologne guy. I'm going to say my three guesses are Italian, Italian, and Italian. No, it's not Italian. No, Albanian? Albanian? Close.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Close. Armenian. Oh, okay, so we're talking. Armenian. Oh, you said Armenian. Armenian? Close. He was Palestinian. Oh, okay. So we're talking. Armenian. Oh, you said Armenian. Armenian? Close. He was Palestinian.
Starting point is 00:33:09 He's Arab. Oh, okay. All right. Great kid. The kid really knows his sense. Now, how did he get into the game? Are there, like, how did, like, is that his world? He sells colognes on the black market? Once he left his country, and he smelled.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Once he left his country any smell once he left his country i can get into this oh shit man no i don't you know what he never revealed his source i just you got it comes out of new york i'll tell you that. You got to pay cash or does he walk around with a... Can you throw it on the Apple Pay? Can you tap phones? How do you pay for... You do cash, bro. Come on. You get a better deal. Yeah, yeah. Last
Starting point is 00:33:55 question, let me ask you. For the special that's on YouTube right now, what did you wear? Why? Was it the last thing you spritzed on before you got on the stage just to give you a little extra boost of confidence because you know the fragrance was strong
Starting point is 00:34:11 if you put it on late? Just take me through the process. What did you do? For that, honestly, for what I'm wearing when I'm on stage there, it's Gucci Guilty. How you doing? What's the thinking behind
Starting point is 00:34:26 that? Why did you choose that one and not the It was the scent that I was into for a while. I kind of moved on. Look, I got I got a fucking If I buy one, I got to get
Starting point is 00:34:41 the opposite, right? So like my eBay San Lorraine, however the hell you say it, the YVL. Oh, yeah. St. Laurent, yeah. Yeah, I got the... St. Lorraine. I got the... Because one bottle's dark.
Starting point is 00:35:00 That's for night. It's called all time. U-L-T-I-M-E Okay hold on I'm writing that down And then you got the blue one It's cologne blue But they spell it fancy
Starting point is 00:35:12 B-L-E-U-E Like blue cheese Now when your guy When your guy comes When your guy from the P-L-A comes over Does he And you want to And you want to
Starting point is 00:35:24 And you want to sample the sniffs, do you sniff off the bottle, or does he spray a little on his wrist and let you smell? Yeah, we know what we're doing. You get a little waft, like a chemistry waft, but I pretty much put the oil in
Starting point is 00:35:42 and I know when it's coming. Right, right, right. So you basically smell it off the bottle. Well, I mean, I know what I'm ordering. Right, because you already got a waft. He's like, I've got the new scent for you. And he tries to spell me on the new scent. Right. Like a novice, somebody who's just, like, if I'm getting into the buying cologne game,
Starting point is 00:36:05 like, is it novice to sniff off the bottle or do I got to put it on a piece of skin? I mean, how do I get an accurate measure of what it's going to be like on me? Should I spritz a little on the wrist or right off the bottle head? You know, first of all, if you're serious about it, you got to pick up a certain type of coffee grind. That really removes the sand out of the nostril. Oh, yeah, look at this. Chanel Blue. Chanel Blue.

So he's mostly Italian. He's mostly Italian. He's one of those guys, mostly Italian with the last name that's not. Yeah, my favorite was when he called St. Laurent St. Lorraine. He'd go, you know, Eve St. Lorraine. I don't know how you pronounce it, but it's a blue bottle. What made me laugh the most is when he goes, what are we doing, though? Are we going out?
Starting point is 00:43:21 Like, what's the situation? He wanted to know specifics. He wanted to know the specifics because a nightclub is different than just going out yeah he squirts at the gym yeah he squirts he'll do a splash at the gym which is really fun he's always got the chain out he's always a chain out guy one time he saw a picture of me because he knows i have the chain yeah and one time he saw a picture of me with like a t-shirt a black t-shirt and the chain wasn't down and he goes he goes what the fuck how come it's not out he hit me up and he goes, why are you wearing a chain? Why would you wear it if it's not out? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I'm telling you, when I got my chain, I kind of got what you said, that it kind of completes you. There's something about it that kind of completes you. You have to. Yeah. There's something about it. It makes like an ordinary, like when I realized that too when I was on vacation with my wife. We were in Florida. And, you know, a chain in Florida, that's like wearing a three-piece suit.
Starting point is 00:44:07 That's like fancy, right? Because it does make a t-shirt fancier. Like if you're wearing just a normal t-shirt and then you pull the chain out, it's like you have a nighttime outfit on. 100%. You know what I mean? It makes a difference. When you see a sparkle over a shiny metal over the t-shirt you're not in a t-shirt
Starting point is 00:44:27 anymore you're in like you're in a go it's a different it's a different feel yeah it's exactly what it's like you could be wearing the same outfit all day and just it's a hot day and you're walking around like shorts and a t-shirt and then dinner time comes and you just go like that i'll tell you what and you're ready for dinner a clean crisp pair, jeans, and a black t-shirt with the chain. It's a go-out outfit. It's a go-out outfit. It's a go-out outfit. Now, I'm not a gaudy guy, so this is as big as I would go.
Starting point is 00:44:51 I would only go right here. He just texted. He loved it. Yeah. I would go right here. This is as far as I'd go. Your dad would call this chicken wire, no? That's chicken wire.
Starting point is 00:45:00 He would go, this is- He would go, why even do that? How does he bring that up? He goes- You know it's funny My approaches in a very my son Lucas has the jewelry bug to wear like he loves sports and he loves that stuff But he he's watching YouTube clips of guys that are flashy and gaudy So now as much as he wants to buy a basketball
Starting point is 00:45:18 She he wants to get what goes with if you're successful in that Yeah And my dad would is like would be thrilled with that like thrilled to know that right my dad can talk to if you're successful in that and my dad would be thrilled with that. Like thrilled to know that. Right. Because my dad can talk to, if you started, I'm not joking,
Starting point is 00:45:28 I'm not even trying to be funny. If you started talking to my father about watches, it would be like, he couldn't have a better, it would bring him so much joy to talk to you about a watch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:36 Because my dad's got like 90 of them. Yeah. Now Jesse, you're Italian, you never went the chain route. When I was younger. You did have a chain. Like around 17.
Starting point is 00:45:43 I remember you had a chain. Look at that. Look at that, dude. Look at that in the middle. Go up one, like scroll a little more. No, the other route. When I was younger. You did have a chain. Like around 17. I remember you had a chain. Look at that. Look at that, dude. Look at that in the middle. Go up one. Scroll a little more. No, the other way. Which way?

Starting point is 00:45:57 No, it does look good. You know what that really looks good in? Yeah. Like a beautiful Lexus? Yeah. Like a new car? Yeah. Just a nice car, like behind a wheel, your hand on a wheel? Now, here like a new car yeah just just a nice car like
Starting point is 00:46:05 behind a wheel your hand on a wheel now here's the thing a chain is a strong choice it's a strong choice you pull the chain out you're saying there's a 50 chance i don't have a ba no see i think ring i think a ring is way more bold of a choice a ring is a chain is more common a lot of people look jared's got a chain. You don't have a chain on. You have a chain. I have a chain. Three out of four of us have some sort of chain.

But like, yeah, no, it's like a ring is a is a real pinky ring is what's the stronger statement than a pinky ring no that's that's worse that's even stronger that's no ba no yeah if you have to chain out you're going 50 chance i got a ba 50 chance i don't you got a ring on you're going 100 chance i'm not an honest guy it 100% chance I do some type of crime. Yeah, and I'm within 19 miles of East Rutherford, New Jersey. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:12 I mean, a pinky ring says a lot about somebody. Yeah, it's an Italian thing. A pinky ring is an Italian. It's as Italian as pizza. You don't see just a normal another guy who's not italian wearing see what my dad does my dad would do bracelets too gold gold bracelets yeah with the matching

It's really where you can see just like a Jewish owner have a wall full of athletes. Yeah, and Italians.
Starting point is 00:48:16 And Italians, yeah. Matter of fact, where my dad showed me to get the diamond wedding ring, you know who else was on the wall? Steve Harvey? Steve Harvey was on the wall. Chris Rock was on the wall yeah and a couple of other people were on the wall maybe maybe tupac rest his soul might have been in there yeah and then it's and then my dad yeah you know and a bunch of italians so but um i noticed this black culture and italian culture

They like it a little more, right? Jairo, would you agree? As a black man, you would see the Italian, you would, you kind of- Well, I feel like the Italians like the blacks- Well, rappers would always rap about mob shit, right? Yeah. All the Italian kids
Starting point is 00:48:50 in my high school wear true religion jeans. Yeah. I feel like the Italians like the black style and then the blacks like the Italian, like, gangster, mafia shit.
Starting point is 00:49:02 Yeah, they like that. Well, all the rappers would, all the rappers growing up in the 90s would always reference, remember Biggie, Frank White was an alias of a rapper, I mean of a gangster. What do you think Steve Jobs, rest his soul, right? What if he threw a chain on that fucking mock neck? That would have changed the whole game, dog.
Starting point is 00:49:19 If he came out to present the new iPhone and he had a wire on yeah i mean that would be a different vibe yeah neck would break because he wouldn't have the muscles on his neck to support it that's true reminded me of like burr bill burr had a joke where he said if einstein came out with a southern accent that would be fun how y'all doing so he equals mc square yeah like like if you saw a guy like Steve Jobs come out with like a gaudy chain Something about his speech
Starting point is 00:49:50 About the new iPhone would lack Because you'd be like I don't know This thing may have some kinks in it He should be giving me this speech In the parking lot Where I'm picking up cologne from him I mean yeah some of the black rappers In the 80s,
Starting point is 00:50:05 like we're looking at Slick Rick, like really overdid it. It got to the point where like, how do you even walk around with that many chains? Remember Mr. T had like 20 of them on? Yeah. But I get how that happens. You put one on and you fall in love with it so much,
Starting point is 00:50:19 you just want to add more onto it. After Tracy Morgan had the accident, look at his, look at Tracy. Tracy Morgan's got a rope that it's ridiculous. more onto it after after tracy morgan had the accident look at his look at trace tracy morgan's got a rope that it's it's my it's it's ridiculous it's actually it was used at madison square garden with the rope and it's just the biggest can you put yeah that one i mean it's and he's like he rocks it at the garden yeah i mean i mean i mean that looks i mean that thing looks like you could pull an 18 yeah it looks like he's actually carrying looks like he could pull an 18-wheeler. Yeah, it looks like he's actually carrying material to a job site.
Starting point is 00:50:48 It looks like he's training for a fight. It really does look like. It looks like he's working out with The Rock. Yeah, I mean, that's just. And you know that that's real. Yeah, of course. I mean, that's real gold. Yeah, that was paid for by Walmart.
Starting point is 00:51:00 He has a Bavarian pretzel around his neck. Look at that thing, dude. I mean, that thing with the scorpion. I mean, I bet you I'm saying 1.5 on just that. Probably, yeah. Probably. It's so funny how- Now, but see, now the middle one.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Go to that one, Jesse. Yeah, that one. See, that one I kind of get. I mean, without the, you know, I'm not a big guy that has an emblem guy, but that rope- That size. That size would be my limit. I don't like the chain to hang low like that, though. You don't like it too low.
Starting point is 00:51:24 It looks too much like a necklace. Yeah, yeah. It looks too little. And it's a little too long. That size would be my limit. I don't like the chain to hang low like that, though. You don't like it too low. It looks too much like a necklace. Yeah, yeah. And it's a little too long. A little too long, yeah. It looks like some saggy titties. I don't want that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:33 What's your thickness? This is as thick as I'll go. You won't go thicker than that? I won't go thicker than this. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's not my personality. I'm like, I'm not. Yeah, yeah. It's not, you know.
Starting point is 00:51:41 That suits you good. This is perfect. I think intelligence levels match the chain width. You fucking said that as I pulled this up. This isn't too big. No, that's perfect. I think they match our personalities too. Like, you're a little louder.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Yeah, a little, yeah. Yeah, you know what I mean? I go a little flashier. A little flashier. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The sizes measure personalities. Yeah, yeah. The bigger it is, the more probability that there is for little flashier. A little flashier. The sizes measure personalities. Yeah. The bigger it is, the more probability that there is for tax evasion.
Starting point is 00:52:08 And here you go. This matches my point. I barely got a BA, but I got a BA. So 50% yes. Yeah. I dropped out. You dropped out, so you changed a little thicker. I dropped out.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Brett Urst, without a doubt, it's a 50% chance yes or no. Did he get a BA? Well, Brett was like a big college football player in Florida, but I don't know. Yeah, he was. But I don't know big. Like the kid was a defensive back. The kid's athletic. Yeah, he was a fucking cut kid.
Starting point is 00:52:37 He also had like a model face. I love when I meet guys who had a model face and you look at their old model photos. I mean, you ever see him post on his Instagram? He said one of the funniest things I ever ever one of the funniest things i was crying laughing where he was talking and he said he got into it with a guy and the guy go and he goes well why are you upset what are you what are you insulted by and the guy started saying something and they were going back and forth and brett just goes how about i swear i said he told me last night he goes how about we just skip this and i just start smacking you how about and i go you literally said let's cut out the middleman so I can just start smacking you.
Starting point is 00:53:07 He goes, yeah, because we were getting nowhere. But then you look at him and he's like. Yeah, he's a big kid. Yeah. He's a big athletic kid. Used to be a football player. One of my favorite people. I loved him the minute we first hung out.
Starting point is 00:53:19 Yeah. He's just a great dude and extremely funny. Oh, so funny. I'd say one of those like underrated comics. So funny. Who if you went and saw him live, he just crush funny. Oh, so funny. I'd say one of those underrated comics. So funny. Who if you went and saw him live, he just crushes. Oh, he's great. Now he's got his stuff on the internet and it immediately blew up.
Starting point is 00:53:32 It's blowing up so fast. It's hilarious. And it's weird because he's on Cobra Kai. He's got Cobra Kai season five coming up. That's somewhere where you would know him from is Cobra Kai. Yeah, he plays Cousin Louie. Cousin Louie on Cobra Kai. Italian kids are just,
Starting point is 00:53:45 here's the thing, Italian kids just need things a certain way to live and it's just in them. It's style. Italians, it's style. They like marble. They like marble,
Starting point is 00:53:55 but food is important. Food, everything. Appearance is important. Lifestyle. Lifestyle, for sure. That thing that, one of the greatest things, and this is why to me,
Starting point is 00:54:03 Eddie Murphy, he doesn't have the biggest body of work, but Eddie is the, when Eddie said that about the Italian with the girl, he goes, don't you ever disrespect me. Don't you ever fucking, I'll put this glass here. That's how, it's like you can never, don't ever get one up on me.
Starting point is 00:54:16 Yeah. You know, don't ever make me look like, what am I, an asshole? Yeah, it's funny how different ethnicities do have, I'll say this about stereotypes. Look at Brad. Stereotypes are more correct than polls. I'd say there's more truth to stereotypes than there are polls.
Starting point is 00:54:37 You know what I'm saying? Like, stereotypes don't come out of the sky. They don't fall from the sky. Like wasps. You're never going to see a wasp with like a loud chain yeah you know they're very understated people italians very loud they like fucking freestyle music they like fucking dancing like this they like taking their shirt off they like wearing a chain yeah greek guys you're usually gonna find a little paranoia black guys you know the love
Starting point is 00:55:00 loud music they love fucking flashy shit they love chains yeah you know it's loud music. They love fucking flashy shit. They love chains. You know, it's... Asians love to gamble. Asians love to gamble. You go to the fucking casino. What am I not supposed to see? There's Asians everywhere. If you go to a casino, there's something.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Asians love... My brother's, one of my brother's close friends from Boston University, Asian kid, kid just loves to be in a casino. They love to gamble. If you got a thousand people
Starting point is 00:55:23 of the culture, I bet you, chances are the number in the favor of the stereotype is gonna be greater a casino. They love to gamble. If you got a thousand people of the culture, I bet you, chances are, the number in the favor of the stereotype is going to be greater than not. Stereotypes, yeah,
Starting point is 00:55:30 there's always a kernel of truth behind stereotypes. There's a kernel of truth. Now, your dad, your new special, which is coming out on Netflix, it's out right now
Starting point is 00:55:38 when you're watching this. It's only been out a couple days, so you go right now, sit down, make a night out of it, sit down with the wife, sit down with right now, sit down, make a night out of it, sit down with the wife, sit down with the husband, sit down with the family, throw it on the big screen. And you'll hear some stuff about my Italian father. It's called Nocturnal Admissions, and I talk about him a lot in it.
Starting point is 00:55:54 That's what I was saying. So your dad is Sicilian on steroids, and this special has a lot about your dad, right? You finally started talking, making some jokes about your dad and how funny he is. This is a lot about your dad right you finally like start talking making some jokes about your dad yeah and how funny he is this is this is a lot of i love how jesse's doing production while yeah while we're doing this he just did a screenshot to put it later was that distracting no it's funny um yeah i talked about my dad like this is the first one where like i kind of just talked about the divorce what me and my older older brother Christian kind of went through at ages five and ten, how my dad is, what my dad was like, especially to us at those young ages. So what we were seeing at that young age, but so much of a character that I grew up with as a father. A pinky ring kind of guy.
Starting point is 00:56:36 I also didn't grow up with him like the way you would normally grow up with a father because, you know, the courts in the 80s gave my dad what? We had eight hours on sunday and three hours on wednesday so we had all day sunday and dinner wednesday and then that's it and the funny thing is like often often divorces happen it's the father leaving a lot of times i think the majority would be the father initiates the divorce you know i don't know those numbers but yeah i mean maybe we should look that up but i think a lot of the time it's the father but what's funny what you talk about in your special is how your dad didn't want the divorce no my dad my dad because appearances well my dad he's like we don't do that you guys you guys can you know if anybody saw the trailer of this thing that's what that's the joke that's
Starting point is 00:57:21 in the trailer is like my dad's sicilian Catholic dude Divorce didn't happen for them And in the 80s it really didn't happen a lot Now it's commonplace Now people get divorced 50% Early 80s, 1982 You told people you were getting divorced It was kind of like a hush thing It was almost like an abortion
Starting point is 00:57:38 Where you're just like hey don't tell anybody Well I was completely wrong about that According to the BBC Why women file for divorce more than men. Is this America, though, or... Right here. I would think it would be women. In the US.
Starting point is 00:57:53 I would think men would stay in something. Wait, go down, Jess. So, according to the BBC, in the US specifically, no-fault divorce is legal in 50 states. Estimate 70%. Wow. Some estimates put. Estimate 70%. Wow. Some estimates put the figure at 70%. Women petitioned.
Starting point is 00:58:10 No, 70% that there's divorce. Oh, okay. This rises to staggering 90% when women are college educated. What? So college educated women are getting divorced 90% of the time. I'm telling you it's not good to let these bitches read. getting divorced 90% of the time. I'm telling you it's not good to let these bitches read.
Starting point is 00:58:31 In the UK, women petitioned for 62% of divorces. So I was absolutely wrong about that. When you said it, I was thinking women could- That's so crazy because they always yell at us. Yeah, but women won't stay in shit like a man would. You know the way we don't want headaches? We don't want that fucking headache. But I'm surprised that women, because they lose so much value like a used
Starting point is 00:58:50 car after they've been married. Well, it depends how many kids. You know, that's really like, once you drive it off the lot, I'd want to stay. No, what it probably... What it really probably means is that men are the ones fucking up more, and then the women want out.
Starting point is 00:59:11 But, you know, it's funny. I also read a statistic that, like, 50% of women in marriages cheat, too. They just don't get caught. So I don't think this is a real... I don't know if you could even look at these stats and blame one gender over the other. You know, I don't know. But it is interesting.
Starting point is 00:59:26 I would have thought it was opposite. I guess I'm wrong. Well, according to this article, that's my point about stats. You never know. I remember during the election, they were telling us the whole fucking time Hillary's going to win by a landslide. She lost. All the stats were saying Golden State Warriors had no shot to win the championship.
Starting point is 00:59:41 So you can't. I mean, I rely more on a stereotype than I will on a pole. You know what I mean? The stereotypes that women like feelings more. Usually true. That they don't know what they want for
Starting point is 00:59:58 dinner. Usually true. That's a big one. But I think that's why they get out first. A man won't get out. It takes a lot for a man to throw his hands up and go. Yeah, because we're good people. I think my dad wanted to leave my mom early. He stayed for the kids.
Starting point is 01:00:13 I'm sure some women do that too, but yeah. Marriage is a tough thing. Now, do you talk about marriage a lot in the special coming up? Yeah, I talk about one of our biggest fights is the food thing. I talk about how my wife is an early person, can't let the day go to waste. Right. And I'm a guy that wants to stay down. I said, just get me to 9.30, 10.
Starting point is 01:00:31 I'm not asking much. Right. 9.30, 10. I work at night. Right. You know what I mean? I work at night. Sometimes I'm in the city till 1.
Starting point is 01:00:38 I get home 1.30, 2. Let the kids stay down. Because if you let me stay down till 9.30, 10.30, then I'll fucking be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Let's go. Right. She comes in. She starts moving stuff. Right, right.
Starting point is 01:00:48 So I hear it. Right, right, right. You know what he wants? Well, part of the reason you want the 9.30, 10.00 is because you're probably up to 3.00, 4.00. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's part of being a comic is we're up to 2.00, 3.00, 4.00. You can't walk in the house at 1.30 and go right to bed.
Starting point is 01:01:02 Yeah. My wife doesn't. It's like I'm trying to explain that to you every day. Yeah. My wife, I'm trying to explain that to her. I'm going like, yeah, because I have the same thing. And you know, they do it passive-aggressively. They just start making a lot of noise.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Yeah. There's some banging. Yeah. You know, the kids want to do something today. Yeah, yeah. It's like, yeah, well. Yeah, she lets my daughter like scratch on the door. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:22 It just starts early. Yeah. You know, it's like. Being married is this. You chose, it's like my first, it's like my first scratch on the door. Yeah. It just starts early. Yeah. It's like being married is this. You chose. It's like my first. It's like my first special. The joke.
Starting point is 01:01:28 It's it was a stranger that you connected with. Yeah. That just runs every like you have kids with. And it's just you. They just run everything. Yeah. Yeah. Every decision is run by them.
Starting point is 01:01:36 Yeah. You ever have your wife march off, march past you, mad, go to the bathroom and slam the door. Yeah. You chose that. That's not even your family. Yeah. It's not even your blood.
Starting point is 01:01:43 And that's in your house. You're dealing with that. It's like we were on. We were in fucking Wendy's fucking 15 years ago. Having's not even your family. It's not even your blood, and that's in your house. You're dealing with that. It's like we were at fucking Wendy's fucking 15 years ago. Having a great time. Now you just fucking threw something at me, and I'm sitting here going, oh, my fucking weekend's done. Yeah, yeah. You have to see the sense of humor of it because it is hilarious, and it is all worth it. Having a family is great.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Being married is great. It's all great, but you have to see the sense of humor because it's not easy. Marriage is not an easy thing. I think I would say that a lot of divorce is because one person in the party is extremely selfish. Selfishness is a very big part of it because one person is not willing to meet halfway. One person is not willing. willing to meet halfway. One person is not willing. One person is so selfish that any sacrifice they have to do because of you is not something they're willing to do. And it makes the other person go, oh, well, you're not in this the way I'm in this. Right? That's really what it comes down to.
Starting point is 01:02:36 I agree. Selfish people. And a lot of times people, sometimes they could be selfish. They don't want to have a kid because they don't want anything coming off of them. Then the other person starts to resent it. And there have been a lot of marriages where they agreed no kids but the woman wanted kids or maybe the man wanted kids and then later you get resentful because you're like oh you're fucking you don't want kids because you're fucking selfish and it's all about you and people leave that it all becomes down to really selfish and and even i think underneath that on a more like biological level it's what makes i think what makes humans have humor in comedy is we're able to understand
Starting point is 01:03:19 the irony of things we're able to understand the bigger picture you know meaning you know we can achieve things and be ambitious and at the same time know simultaneously that it's all for nothing that's funny that you die at the end that's funny right you either have like because other animals aren't aware they don't go other animals don't hey man, I want to get four specials. I want to be one of the best comics. And then somebody goes to the animal, and then what? And then the animal goes, what do you mean? They don't have the awareness to go, oh, then you die.
Starting point is 01:03:54 That's hilarious. Either you're going to have a tragic outlook on that or a comedic outlook on that. That's something the ancient Greeks knew, is like things are either tragic or, in its heightened state, things are either comedic or tragic. And oftentimes it's the perspective you put on it. You're looking at the same thing. You're having the same awareness about something, but you're looking at it,
Starting point is 01:04:13 your perspective chooses to be comedic or tragic. So when it comes to marriage, we have these simultaneous opposites happening at the same time which makes it funny or tragic my point being we are not designed men are not designed for marriage okay we're designed by nature to spread the seed that's that like all living things to propagate the species that's the only instruction we have right it. It's coded in our DNA. Well, that's built in. It's built in. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:47 And it's the biggest tug. It's the biggest tug. Now, women have, they're designed by nature, don't get mad at me, feminists, to nurture a child. They have to carry it for nine months. It destroys their body. You know, it's like that's how they're designed,
Starting point is 01:05:01 for better or worse. Yeah. So we're both designed for these different things. And we also know that marriage is a good thing to raise a kid it really is yeah this whole like fucking yeah non-marriage movement is like yeah it's you can't build okay marriage may be ridiculous okay what's his fucking name the guy from fucking hbo i'm just blanking on it because i'm fucking me bill maher i get it okay it's all fucking name? The guy from fucking HBO. I'm just blanking on it because I'm fucking me. Bill Maher, I get it, okay? It's all fucking ridiculous, all you fucking,
Starting point is 01:05:29 it's like, but it's necessary. But the structure builds better people. You need it, it builds a society. You can't have a bunch of fucking 18 year olds dictating policy and you can't have a bunch of fucking single old 80 year olds dictating policy. It's like we gotta keep the species here and the way you keep the species here
Starting point is 01:05:47 is through families. Of course. And you need a family because you need help raising a kid. And family structure and raising good human beings is that foundation. You need that foundation.
Starting point is 01:05:57 You need the foundation. Yeah, you can't. So you have those two things happening at the same time. You have these urges that we're born with and then we're forced into this institution that is actually good for us good for the kids
Starting point is 01:06:08 good for us I mean what are you doing you're 45 you're single what the fuck are you doing yeah really it's weird well that's what I took that's what I tell any of my friends that were in relationships that were afraid to get married I go where the fuck are you going yeah what are you doing yeah what are you gonna do cuz pretty soon you're 50 yeah you're gonna stay in a fucking studio or one bedroom in Nework running around doing fucking you know 25 spots yeah no and fucking looking around and go hey man i'm not tied down no but you're in a fucking shithole in greenwich village with no life yeah you're old it's weird it's fucking really weird it's it's fucking sad you know
Starting point is 01:06:36 what's hilarious though is when you were saying that like we're coded and and we do one thing and we're coded one way and then we want to spread the seed yeah and women are another way it's funny how animals don't have a so like if you or i or even our wives were in like a supermarket and somebody really attractive walked by and you go like that right the other person gets mad animals the lion doesn't have to fucking deal with that you know our habitat happened to be stopping shop this kid's just out in the wilderness when When you kick a man at me, I'm trying to buy a box of cereal. This thing walked by. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 01:07:08 Male lions don't get nagged on the Serengeti. There's never no lioness going like, why are you looking at her? It's like, you're lucky I'm not eating your kids. You're lucky I'm not eating your kids. That's so true, man. The environment you're in. So that's the thing. That's what separates us from the other animals is that we have this awareness.
Starting point is 01:07:27 Because the funny thing is we have the same instincts as the animals to propagate, to evolve, to dominate. We have all the same, but we also have this big brain where we can project to the future. We have awareness. We can see the bigger picture. We can get a helicopter view. And that helicopter view being like, hey, marriage is good for a society it's good for the family it's good for your kids but we're in this thing we're getting into a thing that is the opposite of what our instincts are telling us it wants yeah so that creates comedy or tragedy yep so it's like it's
Starting point is 01:08:01 gonna be one or the other if you want your marriage to work You better try to find the humor in it Because otherwise it's going to be tragic It's not going to be neither It's going to be one or the other There's no marriage that's just neither It's either you find the humor in it Or you're going to get divorced There are some times where me and Stacy will fight
Starting point is 01:08:18 And then we'll just start laughing And we'll just be like alright You know what you were this or you were that And a big one and women don't do it as much i don't think i don't think i think men do it more but i think we apologize more i know i apologize more to my wife right you know i she's apologized a couple times but there are certain times where you gotta go well your wife's a strong yeah my wife's strong my wife is strong and my wife is is she's steadfast yeah you know like know, like my wife is the reason why I'm like, you know what? There are some women who should be president.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Yeah, yeah. You know, because they just would run a tight, you know, a fucking tight ship. They treat everybody the same. They're good. But she's strong, you know? But there are some times when I push back on that. You have to. And I'm like, look, there are certain things.
Starting point is 01:09:00 How important do you think the pushback is? But what I've learned is, And I'm doing a joke about this In my next hour Is you gotta know When to pick them Okay Like there's certain hills You shouldn't die on
Starting point is 01:09:11 Where I would I would try to In my earlier In my 20s and 30s I would take the fight Yeah Where now I'm going Why this?
Starting point is 01:09:18 Not here Right There's certain ones You gotta roll up your sleeves Right Certain ones Which ones are those? If you're having a late night

You did that, so now I'm willing to even humiliate myself with my actions because of that. He went all the way, even his money, everything. He let people that he loved know that he drank and did coke and he did all those things, but he was willing to do that because it was so wrong on the other side. That's when I'll say it's on. That's when you turn Johnny Depp. That's when you'll say it's on right that's when you turn johnny depp that's when you go johnny depp on him when you go when you know you're 100 right you go

Starting point is 01:12:46 is an endless source of material here's getting a blowjob as a married man yeah this is what you do you're laying there you just look at you
Starting point is 01:12:51 no yeah and then it's you know yeah and they don't they give you like it's like half of one they never fit like I don't remember
Starting point is 01:13:01 the last time I got one that was fully finished you know they're concerned about hair it's just They never fit. I don't remember the last time I got one that was fully finished. They're concerned about hair. It's a totally different thing. Yeah, and a lot of marriage is not sexual. That's another thing people make a big mistake about. It's like if you're into someone sexually,
Starting point is 01:13:23 you shouldn't consider that for the marriage because marriage is a different thing. Marriages, you know what marriage is, dude? Marriage is a business. You have a business partner that you love, that you're raising these kids with, but you obviously have to have physical attraction and do all that stuff too. But marriage is like in a good way of business. I don't mean, I don't mean, I don't mean in a corporate way. I mean like- Your family's like a business and you're running it together. You're running it together and you're raising your kids together, you know. But you do got to keep the physical stuff.
Starting point is 01:13:48 You do. Big thing to do, man, I'll tell anybody is you got to do date night, man. Even if it's once every two weeks, you got to go out, sit down. Me and her got to get into that because when we started doing that, it was amazing. You know, and then you get busy and stuff. But you go out, you get a bottle of wine, nice restaurant, and you talk and you go back to dating the way it was, you know, when it, at the beginning. You said that's like a quarterback taking his offensive line out.
