Transcript for #1563 - Tony Hinchcliffe

Whole different feel feels normal yeah people aren't terrified Correct. They got everybody scared as fuck California.

It's also, I think it's hard to bounce back in big places. I think it's harder for big places to bounce back because you get like all these stores closed down. Like all the stores that got hit hard with the looting on Melrose, like they're still closed, right? Most of them come back. Yeah. When you drive down the last time was there, it's like boarded up, boarded up, boarded up, four leaves, four leaves, and like this takes a long time to come back.

Yeah, out here they're not interested in shutting things down the same way, especially the governor. He's like, we gotta keep businesses open. And he's right, like you can do it safely. I mean, I think you could do it safely here better than California because there's lower numbers. There's less people. Everyone's on his smushed in together. And everyone's more relaxed because of that. It makes you realize when you come to a place that has less humans, it makes you realize like, oh, that's better. Like, there's plenty of people out here. It's not like we're in the farms. in the country in the middle of nowhere in the mountains. It's not like that. It's a city, but it's a less populated city and everything's just a little more, yeah, relaxed.

huge place. And it's mushes in with Orange County, which is even more populated, right? Yeah. No, not LA's probably more populated in Orange County, but Orange County's so dense, though, there's the traffic in Orange County on the 405 is mind blowing. It's mind blowing. Like when you drive down the San Diego and you just like, where are all these people coming from? Right. There's so many of them.

Look at you. Unbelievable.

It's why I never played. Why is it dangerous? Because it's a suck of time. It sucks time. Not that it's bad. People enjoy it. And as far as activities, it's suck time. I mean, at least you're walking around, you're out in nature. You had all that beautiful green grass, you know? There's positives to it.

Yeah, it's probably like every like our trees like that. It's meditative. Yeah. It helps clear your mind because it's so difficult. Right. You're concentrating so hard on each individual put and shot. That's right. Yeah.

Really?

The ramp?

There's no other sport that's worth millions of dollars if you're the best that also has a miniature version that little kids play. Right like a fucked up version with all like bumpers everywhere and weird holes and it's fun though It's on concrete with fucking fake grass over it, right? Yeah, there's no I guess there's bumper pool, but pools not Pools not nearly as popular as golf in terms of um In terms of money, you know, yeah, like golfers make like legit price in D Shambow You know that is powerful dry 123 yard drive that is insanity. That's so far

Jesus. So he's just decided to get really big. He looks like a football player. Yeah. Who's that one dude that does the thing at the driving ranges where he steps his leg up in the air like he's throwing a pitch and then he steps forward and it's crazy torque. He's got this crazy movie does where lifts his leg up and then he steps into it. And wax it yeah, he's there's videos of my YouTube.

There's a comparison. I guess to pull the brake shot, you know, like some guys have crazy brake shots, like with a lot of power. And then afterwards, it's a touch and finesse game.

Yeah.

Also, you guys, you're not playing on flat surface. You got little hills. You have to like look at, you got to get low and try to figure out where you hit it on the hill and make it drop at the hole.

And what happened is soldiers, I believe in the Second World War brought over to the Philippines pool. They taught them pool. And they play a lot of pool outside. So they have these outside areas, like chickens run around and shit, and they're playing pool, like a lot of open air pool tables. and it's obviously it's an island so it's near the oceans probably a lot of humidity in the air and the tables they also have this weird thing they do with a poor powder on the rails so like they have like baby powder because the tables because everything gets so slick because it's wet and sweaty and sticky and moist so they put a baby powder near the pockets and they all touch the baby powder on their fingers and then you know the cue runs smoothly through your hand but then you're always touching the table so you're putting baby powder all over the table so the table gets really dirty So they're playing on these dirty, slow, wet tables. they develop these like real fluid strokes because they're so used to having to power the ball around these disgusting tables like not disgusting but just you would be upset if you play on a table like that in America you'd say why don't you guys clean the table but over there they don't give a fuck also they don't give a fuck if it's a bunch of people around the table so they have these games and I watched these games like if you looked at my YouTube favorite you'd fucking laugh because like the suggested videos. The vast majority of them are Filipino pool. I watch Ephraim Reyes. If you look at Jeff Galeing production, Jeff Galeing is a guy who films, it's not like simple stuff. They film it like with a tripod and a cell phone. and then uh... they did just film these pull matches and people get obsessed with watching afra rea's play these young guns in the Philippines after rances probably the greatest pool player of all time like pretty widely regarded he liked to hit some grace of pool and he's playing in any pack yeah right Um, many pack-downs of killer, by the way, many pack-downs of killer pool-player. Really? Oh my god, world-class. Like, many pack-downs could play professional.

My friend Max Eberley, who's a, you met Max? Max, I know you have. He's a legit pro, like Max is like World Champion Calber pro, and he's gambled with Manipack, and he said, Manipack, it was good. He says you have to really bear down the beat him. Like, they play a race to 10. He might beat Manipack because Max's world class, but he might beat Manipack 10 to 7 or 10 to 6. Whereas he beat me like 10 to 1 or 10 to 2. Manipack is much better than me. He's really good. Manipack is better than you, a pool? Yeah, he's legit. There's Manipack there. Yeah, do it. Look at that. Look at him kick that ball in son and get position on the six. He's he's super legit super legit and he's got a great stroke and he's also left handed. I think there's a thing about left handed people and I say this as a right handed person. I think

He might have fucked that up, but he plays really good Yeah Like, like I said, if I saw him in a tournament and I didn't know as many pack, yeah, I'd be like, oh, this guy's really good. He's a pro. He's essentially a pro. But that's also because he's in the Philippines and the the Philippines. Look how good he gets, like, perfect position on the seven. Watch this. Seven to the eight, eight to the ten and he's out. Ten ball. Watch this. If you watch how he strokes the ball, like everything's super precise, look at his position. That's... He's a professional. Like a legit professional. So if many decides to retire from fighting and goes into professional pool, he might win some World Championships. Like no bullshit. I mean, he's still fighting actively. They're actually talking about him fighting Connor McGregor right now, which is kind of bonkers through that. It gets out.

Is that a question? You know, even one of the greatest boxers of all time. I agree against the guy with one professional boxing man.

Let me explain something. The reason why it was close is because Mayweather let him blow his body. Just let him. Lucky clip Mayweather will legit legit left upper cut early in the fight. And I was kind of stunned. I was like, wow. That's really legit. Watch this. Here we go. See, what Conor, look at that. If you see it, watch this left uppercut if you see, if you, if they don't, if they replace it, it's really quick. So let's rewind a little bit so just so I can see it, because it's really, really good.

Left uppercut. Here's the thing. May weather had to figure out Connor's timing because what Connor is, Connor is not a professional boxer, okay? So because he's not a professional boxer, he's not as efficient and he's going to get tired easier. May weather is one of the greatest if not the greatest boxer of all time. I say this is a real good argument. He's a greatest of all time. because he's undefeated, 50 and 0, and really only been hurt by sugar shane mozzly and my Donna, two guys in a spectacular career, 50 and 0, and just gets hit less than anybody, and he's super smart about how he sets up fights. He sets up one of these he does as he talks a mess of shit. and gets everybody wanting to root for him to lose. He'll show you all his roles, his his show you all his money. He'll show you all his watches, and everybody's like, he's gonna go bro, he's gonna go bro, but he never does. He keeps making money, he keeps making money. Because if you look at his style, he's got a brilliant style. His style is take the minimal amount of damage, find your openings, and then establish your game, and then dominate. And that's what he's done to everybody. That's what he did to Manipack out, and there fight, and Manipack out apparently had a fucked up shoulder, but that's what he did to Ricky Hatton, dominated Ricky Hatton at the time. You know, one of the best in the world and a guy that a lot of people were interested in seeing how he would do against Mayweather. And then the second fight with my Donna, you get to see the brilliance of Mayweather because you knew he got clipped in the first fight. So he digested all of my Donna's movements and what he did wrong in the first fight and he came out in the second fight and just put on a clinic. He's the best of all time. Yeah. But Connor is a freak, he's an explosive guy, he's so fast, and there's no remedy for that, other than getting a guy tired. So what Mayweather was doing was boxing with him, but preserving, being safe, got clipped a couple times, realized that Connor could punch. But just drag him in a deep water, drag him in a deep water, and that's what a guy like Mayweather would do. He's the most intelligent, in terms of his overall strategy to preserve his health yet to always win. I mean, he's the most intelligent. He's so good. You know, all the greats have suffered. losses and setbacks and except him. Yeah, except him.

We know he's had tough fights. He's had a couple of tough fights. But dude, he's so goddamn good. He's so protected. He knows where to be and where not to be. He's so composed. Like, look at that. Look at that movement. Look how he moves away from everything. So you're punching at air and you're still threatening, but you're not really hitting them and he's making you throw punches. And occasionally you clip them with a shot as he's moving away and he rolls with a lot of shit. So it's really you got to be a guy like sugar shamed most of the clip them really clipped him like really hurt him and he just grabbed a hold on my held on to him and then eventually started kicking sugar shamed's ass just took time. He's uh, if you're a young boxer and you want to know what it's like to be a 41 year old and still be at the top of your game, you got to be like him or like Bernard Hopkins. When Bernard Hopkins was at the top of his game, he was older. He was like in his 40s. Like he was, I think he was 36 when he beat Felix Trinidad and a lot of people like Bernard Dunn. It's over Felix Trinidad. Tito Trinidad is a future and he let Felix Trinidad on fire. And then the same thing with Kelly Pavlik. He's like Kelly Pavlik.

Bernard Hopkins is a national treasure. Yeah. He's because what he looked at that kind of pops him with that jab. And that was uncomfortable. Look how calm he is. Stop back that up. Back that up a second. Look how goddamn calm he is. Watch his jab come to Floyd's face. He doesn't even blink. He touches him in the nose, but he knows it's not going to hurt him.

He really is. A master of distance. Bernard was a master of distance, too. And Bernard was a different kind of style, different kind of defensive style. Bernard, like, would frustrate guys a lot. We clinch with them, tie you up, make it very physical. And guys get real frustrated. And they didn't know what to do. And they just wanted to fucking start winging punches. And then you get right in your face again and clinch a hold to you. But then break with you and catch you with a little left hug. Break, catch you with the right hand. Always defensive. Always protect, always disciplined. You know?

Well, the headbutts are interesting. It's like the question is, did he do it on purpose? And that's what Tyson was saying that he's doing this on purpose. He's trying to cut me and he's cutting my face and cutting Tyson and that's when Tyson bit his ear. And Tyson's idea at the time, at least, was that he was doing it on purpose. You know, but it's also like style styles to get it put his face, put his head on your chest. You know, it put his forehead on your chest and just make it a test of wills. Like very few human beings have the kind of will that Amanda Holyfield has. You ever watched the Riddick Bo fights? Yeah. Those are crazy to watch because Riddick Bo was way bigger than Holyfield. You got to remember Holyfield is a cruiserweight champion. So Holyfield, I want to say he fought late heavyweight in the Olympics. I might be wrong about that. I want to say he fought at like 176 in the Olympics. If I know what he fought at. Is Bible a boxing son? Yeah. They have a linear heavyweight belt. They give out their own belt. Like the ring belt is is prestigious as any other belt WBC WBO.

Yeah, it's got like crazy ruffles to it. And like old school looks like something Jack Johnson would wore. So cool. It's cool.

So probably thought at light heavyweight. So if his first professional fight was a light heavyweight, and then he went on to be the Cruiserate Champion. He beat Dwight Muhammad Kawi, who used to be Dwight Braxton. Dwight Braxton was his five, guy was five, seven, two hundred pounds. He was a tank, just a tank. And he would come out to you like real low. He would get in a crouch and guys would be like, what the fuck? He'd be like way down here. And he was just fucking jacked. And he was another guy out of prison, so just toughy shit. like Bernard Hopkins. Bernard Hopkins learned a lot of his discipline by being locked up. He's like, I never want this to happen to me again. This is a famous story about Bernard leaving prison and one of the guards saying, you'll be back. And he was like, not me bitch. I'm Bernard Hopkins one of the fuck. I'm gonna be a world champion and I'm gonna get this chapter out of my life and went on to be one of the most disciplined boxers ever. That's why he was able to compete deep into his 40s. He lost a Joe Smith. I think he was 51 when he lost his final fight. And Joe Smith, Jr. has just just fucking savage. Like one of those barbarian construction workers who still has a full-time job. It's still fights at a world-class level. Savage. Savage, you may be.

That happens. It breaks in half right here and it goes up and down.

Oh, Jesus. Look how it's dropped down.

Well, the problem, oh my God, that's so, that's so broken. The problem is it'll tear all the tissue in there and they'll never heal right.

There was a woman who had that in an MMA fight. Kim Co Tourer. She was Randy Co Tourer's wife at the time and Her jaw did the same thing drop down. Oh my god. That is crazy. That's crazy. Look at the oh my god. Oh my god

I saw a video of a lion that got kicked by gazelle and had a broken jaw. That's that's some hard shit to look at because you're like, oh, this is not going to last.

You're a lion because you can't eat. Right? No lion hospital. Lions have one shot at getting injured. They get injured once in their life and then it's over.

Dead. Dead within a couple weeks. They usually start a death.

Nope. I think they hold no grudges. Right. I think grudges are connected to cognitive function, like our ego, our understanding of ourselves. That's what I'm going to get him back, because it's like ego. I don't think animals have an ego. They have, they have a sense of fair, though. Animals have a sense of some animals do at least chimps do. One of the reasons why chimps attack people is because if people give something to someone else and they don't give it to them, they have a real sense of fairness. Yeah, there's a famous story of this guy who had a pet champ, and then the thing about champs is you can keep him when they're young, and then they get older, and it's like a man, but a man that's five times stronger than you, and like, why is he going to listen to you? He's not going to listen to you. So I think he started biting off fingers. It's one of the things that champs do. When champs get mad at you, they bite off your finger. Yeah, just let, you know, they're the boss. They don't give a fuck of your injured. They have no remorse, right? And they're intelligent. So you have this thing that's not a dog. It's not a person. It's this weird in between thing. It's an animal, but it's also intelligent. And so when you do something for someone else, but you don't do something for them, they get rage, like horrific rage. So this guy gets rid of this champ, brings it to a shelter. The shelter takes it in, and he goes to visit it every year, and the champ goes to see him like, oh my friend, I miss you, I miss you, why can't I come home? But he can't come home, ever, because he would just take over the house, right? Because he's a grown champ. Well, you don't castrate champs, the way they castrate dogs, when you castrate a dog, like everybody, it's standard. People think it's good. Oh, did you get your dog neutered? Yeah, I did. I feel like you want your dog to have no testosterone. You want your dog to have no balls. But then it becomes a different thing. Right. Then it's like tired. Like, if you ever seen a dog get snipped, I had one of my dogs get snipped when it was five years old. It was just too aggressive. And so someone talked me into it. And then when I got them snipped, also news just tired all the time. He's lazy. And I realized, oh, he didn't have any testosterone anymore. It's all gone. I'm like, wow, look, so the dogs are different dog now. So you can't do that to the chimps. For whatever reason, you can't do that to the chimps. You can't do it to the chimps. So this guy goes to visit the chimps and he brings a birthday cake. Happy birthday, buddy. And the other chimps that are in cages right next to it are like, this motherfucker didn't bring me a cake. I can't believe this shit. So they figure out a way to get out and they got out and they attack the man and they tore him apart. They tore his face off, they tore his dick off, they tore his feet off, they bit his fingers off. It's one of the most horrific, cruel attacks you'll ever hear of because they did it to try to take away from him the things he wants and needs. Like, chimps recognize you need your fingers in order to do things. You need your face in order to see, you need your dick in order to fuck. So that's the things they go after. fucking asshole. They don't try to kill you. They try to take away what it means to be a human. So if you try to hide your hands, they'll pull your hands away from and open them up and bite them off. Like crazy with a rage filled look in their eye. And they don't communicate with language. So they only have this sense in their head or what's fair and what's not fair and what you've done to them. So if you do something that makes them jealous, they think immediately you've done something bad to them. They don't think that, no, no, I just gave my friend a cake. Uh-huh. You made them feel bad. So it's you. You made them feel bad. So they go right after you. It's because it's like a sort of a it's an interesting study in the way sometimes people look at things like we've all been jealous, right? You've been jealous of someone. You see someone is doing something well in your. Oh, I wish I was that guy. But you don't go attack that person, right? People recognize like it's not his fault that I feel bad that he has this corvette. I have to just fuck. I just gotta appreciate the guy's hustle. Guys out there kicking ass. All right. I gotta get my shit together. But there's a thing that we have initially, especially when they're children. we feel angry, like you feel upset, like you feel like you've been shorted. Like someone's, oh, why did I get that? This is bullshit. He gets it. And I don't, it's a fascinating part of humans. And then humans, as we get older and more sophisticated with language, but still carry the same child as emotions. We find reasons. to be upset at someone for being successful. We find reasons eat the rich. We find these weird little ways that we can justify our jealousy or our anger or our disdain for those who are more successful than we. So it's like we're coming up with complicated, sophisticated ways to justify these primal behaviors that chimps exhibit in just violent rage. So this guy, it's a famous case, like you can see the pictures if you want to see the pictures. of the guy who got his face ripped apart and fingers bitten off. Yeah, I mean, he was in the hospital. That sounds great. Did you think folks at home prepared? Don't show it on the screen because it's rough. But Tony needs to see this. Or you go give a trampocache. Yeah, I'm not doing that. This is wow. No nose. See how he bit his nose off. God. Yeah. Look at his face. Oh, shit. Yeah.

Oh, yeah, of course. Look at, see his right hand, the fingers bent and off. That's what they do. They bite off your fingers. That's the champ right there. Click on the champ of the right hand corner. That's his champ.

I'm surprised he let him keep his ears. Oh, that's the guy's face, Jamie. That's what that is. He's got a trick because he can't breathe out of his mouth. Yeah. Well, I mean, I don't think that you know, Chemps exactly, know the human anatomy, all that well, but they know what's important to you. You face your fingers. Fuck it.

But they're also angry that he's their captive. So when they get captive, look, being captive for a chimp is probably a similar feeling as to what it would be to be captive as a person. Right, if you see a chimp at the zoo, and you're in this big, they're in this big containment. They're all these monkey bars and stuff they could hang on, but there's a bunch of people staring at them. Like all day long, people are staring at you through glass, and there's a ceiling, like there's a net over the top, so you can't go over the top, and there's fences, and you just like, fuck, every day is boring. Nothing happens. Nothing happens. Every day, there's no lions, there's no fruit to go pick. There's no places to go journey to explore like chimps travel around them. They don't just sit in one particular 100 yard area for the rest of their life. It's not even 100 yards, right? If you go to the LA Zoo, you'll see how small that enclosure is? Yeah.

And I wrote a piece on my website called Animal Prison. And I was like, because it made me feel, because you know, when you're really fucking super baked, you're sensitive to everything. But just, I recognize how, instead of thinking about myself and thinking about, you know, oh, I'm gonna go to the zoo and see the monkeys. I went there and I immediately felt sadness. I was like, oh, no, these poor creatures. They don't want to be here. Like, what are we doing? Like, we can't do this. I was thinking like, I gotta get out of here.

Oh, C world's worst. Yeah. Because there is smart as us, if not smarter. Yeah. We don't know. We don't even really know how smart orcas are, right? Or dolphins. Because we put them in these weird categories like how much emails do they send? Do they make houses? No, they must be stupid. But they have a cerebral cortex. It's 40% larger than ours. We don't know how smart they are. They also, they communicate. They have a weird sophisticated language that we can't decipher. We can't decipher it. We don't know what their language is. They've been able to recognize specific accents. So you know, there's like, you know, like, there's a Southern accent and a Cleveland accent. There's a Chicago accent. Orcas have accents. Like, we can tell by the sound, oh, this is an orca from Alaska, or this is an orca from Seattle.

You might want to put him in a swimming pool of fucking swimming pool.

It's not that they get depressed. They don't use it. It atrophies. So I go arm that you don't pick anything up with. It just gets limp. You have a break your arm?

When you break your arm, they put it in a cast, one of the weird things is you get your arm out of the cast, it's so little. It's like your arm atrophy.

Oh, yeah.

There's like 80% of cops, they suck at fighting drunks. Yeah, imagine fighting a champ like you how many videos have you seen if cops trying to pull a guy over in the guy winds up kicking their ass?

Yeah, that is so crazy. The champs have lawyers. How can a champ have a lawyer? Dogs don't get lawyers, right? So if a dog bites you, they just put the dog down. But if a chimp bites you, they're like, hold on.

Tired of bullshit. I don't think it's the same chimp that ate the brains. I think it's the chimp that attacked the guy and tore his dick off that ate his brains. They do take your testicles off. They seem to know that that's where you're, you're coming stored. No, good. That's not good.

It's so crazy. Well, you know, I'm the one about the lady and Connecticut, right?

No. Oh, this one's even freakier. This lady had a giant champ like a 200 pounder and it lived with her and slapped in her bed. Oh, wow. And she gave it Sanx and Red wine. And one day, this lady, her friend came over cock blocking. I'm just chimped in like it, so he tore apart, he tore a lady apart, the same way that tore that man apart, tore this lady apart, tore a face apart, horrible story, terrifying story. This lady thought this chimp was like a pet, and then she realized like this chimp has no idea what the rules are, and you can't tell what to do, because it was tired of this lady coming around.

No, it was another lady's teller to not give him red wine and not give him zanx and he was like this bitch's cock block.

No, he probably knew it was a female, but I don't even know. I'm joking around about the cock block in part, but he whatever reason didn't like that lady and just decided to tear apart. You just can't keep them as pets. They're two. It's so strange. They're animals for sure.

I have a couple of drafts on order. I would have giraffes as I had a bit of my act about what giraffes, you know, about the only animals the zoo that don't seem bummed out at all. A giraffes, because they just like another day with no lions. They just stroll around. They're so happy. They're so calm at the zoo that they let babies feed them. Like when my daughter was two or broader the zoo, she holds out a piece of lettuce and the giraffe come over. It's giraff, they didn't train it. And his tongue reaches out and grabs the leather, the lettuce. It's really kind of cool the way they do it. Yeah, but that's the only animal that I would keep as a pet because they don't seem to care. They seem to like it like the stress free.

But they just eat lucalyptus. Yeah. Like one weird plant. They smell like a straw.

Let's do it. To get real content with you. Would you cook one? Yeah. Would you feel like a little aggression from them, right? Oh, absolutely. Put it down. Fucking leaves. Yeah. I was going to fucking leave. Like a fake baby. Yeah. It was a real time. Do you remember that story about a girl that this this couple adopted and they thought they were adopting like a 10 year old and it turned out to be a tiny person and a tiny person who's completely insane and was pretending to be a little kid. Do you know that story scary now start it's a terrifying story because this couple had this like little tiny person in their house that was like Chuckie they wanted to kill them and like and then they realized like oh this lady's 30 right here Ukrainian orphan the center of an adoption scandal might be an adult here eight adults who are caught posing as children Yeah, so look at that imagine that's a 30-year-old playing with your baby and you're like, oh, we're gonna help her. She's gonna have a better life. Meanwhile, she's doing heroin when you're not around. Wow. Yeah.

These are the different stories. These are the different stories. Okay, click on that one. Pair? Oh, come on, you fucking pop up. Oh, you son of a bitch. Looks like you're using an ad blocker. We're here to cock block your ad blocker. Um, that's hilarious. Why don't you just shut off the ad blocker? I don't mind that. All right. Parents who are cute. Parents who are accused of abandoning an eight-year-old Ukrainian girl say the adopted. Oh, they adopted say she was actually a 22-year-old mentally disturbed adult. Look at the parents. It's like, it's a movie. It's a colon brother's movie, right? Like those two winding up a jump. Well, it all started when we tried to do a good thing and adopted baby. Yeah. You know, Darrell's balls didn't work. So we decided, fuck, crazy. That's frightening. Hold on, so you can scroll back up again. We just, yeah, Christine Barnett says Natalia, terrorized her family. And interview with the Daily Mail, trusted source. Christine Barnett said that the adoption was a scam and the girl was not who they thought she was. Christine Barnett said that she and her now ex husband, oh, they got divorced over this. agreed to an emergency adoption of Florida in 2010. She said she didn't know him in many details about Natalya's background, but we're told her previous adopted parents gave her up for undisclosed reasons, like maybe because she's 20. Christine Barnett said that Natalia terrorized her family, tried to stab them when they were sleeping. And once tried to push her towards an electric fence and poured bleach in her coffee, the media is painting me to be a child abuser, but there's no child here, she said Natalia was a woman. She had periods. She had adult teeth. She never grew a single inch. What should it be? What happened even with a child with dwarfism? The doctors all confirm she was suffering from a severe psychological illness only diagnosed in adults.

Natalia has a type of dwarfism called, well, how about this word? Help me out. Spondy, low, e-pip, b-to-facil.

Displasia, which makes her age difficult to actually record without a birth certificate. Wow. Though she was said to be six, when the Barnets adopted her in 2010 NBC News said, it saw a hospital record showing her age as about eight in June of 2010. Oh, well, that doesn't mean anything. Okay, citing court documents, W-I-S-H-T-V, and Indianapolis C-W affiliate reported that the girl's age was changed from eight to 22 in 2012. Instead of skeletal survey, the Peyton Manning, Hall of Peyton Manning, has his own children's hospital. Peyton Manning, children's hospital deemed her to be 11 at the time. Wow, she was 22 with a 22 year old skeleton when she was 11. Wow. Well, she made a career perpetuating her age facade. Scroll back up.

Wow, Natalia was an adult. The document has been verified, but says that she made a career of perpetuating, perpetuating, it's weird work. How often do you say that perpetuating her age? I don't say that very often. I read it a lot. Continue to fool those who had the best intentions. That's crazy. Where's she now?

They think you're a little kid. It's pretty big. Yeah.

You couldn't even make that movie because people say that you were being an ablist. You could make that movie about 10 years ago. But if you try to make that movie today, people call your piece of shit. Like the studios wouldn't fund it. They'd be scared of the backlash. It's so sad.

I saw, um, pulled you guys the other day.

I haven't seen it forever. Yeah. I kind of, I didn't remember so much of it. It's probably been 20 plus years since I saw it. But one thing I recognized when I saw was like, the times were so different when that movie came out. I want to say that movies. It's like, it's eight, what was like 84, so I'm shit. Like, when do you think that came out? I guess 82.

Oh, that's her. Oh my god. Oh my god. She looks like she's 40. That's her. Yeah. That's a little girl. Yeah. She totally looks like an adult. Natalia Grace Barnett. I'm 16. Not a 33 year old scam artist. Oh, that she's old. Look at her face. That's not true. Look at her face. Go back up to that face. That is not a 16 year old's face. Mm-hmm. That's a woman's face. Yeah. That's crazy. But look how smaller hands are and in relationship to rest of her face, too.

But I think when she was 20, she pulled it off. Like if you saw that other picture of her, the other picture of her, she looked young. Yeah. She looked like a little kid, but she looked like a little, you know, from 20 to 33, she does not look the same. That's crazy.

I have there's I was on my YouTube feed watching Filipino pool the other day and an old interview came up with us with someone I didn't even remember was a guest like if you had said is this guy been a guest like never heard of him Maybe I sat down with a guy with three hours doing a podcast. I like my memories turned to dog shit. It's like there's too many too many people in there. There's too many. It's like overwhelmed. I have no room of no hard drivespace.

It's the best feeling crazy. It's like I wrote this in 1998. Yeah.

Oh, here's what The movie I think is, what year is it? 83? 82. Okay. So the movie isn't the early 80s and apparently it was okay to be a piece of shit back then. It was like super normal because like there's a scene where the 16-year-old daughter goes outside and there's just people doing construction in their backyard and I mean like the windows right there, the parents are right there and these construction workers like you Look at you! The guy's got like a tube and he's looking at her through a toilet paper towel tube. He's looking at her. I love you. I love it. She's like, look at you. And the mom is laughing that her daughter almost got raped. It's the crazy scene. Look at this. Look at him. He's looking at her. Look at you. I love you. Yeah, look at this. What? Huh? She's like, fuck you! She gave him the this fuck you. This is like the, it's a soft finger. It's a lot more motion. I give to use your arms. But the wife, watch the mom react to it. Like she's like, yeah, and they're laughing them. Watch when they go to the mom though. The mom since they did give her the finger. The mom's like, oh boy, it's will be boys. I'll tell her right then. Like if that was today, if you put that in a movie and tried to pass it off, like it was normal behavior, people would fucking freak out at you.

Well, later on in the movie, the guy steals coffee. Back to the construction. Yeah, stills food. He reaches in. He grabs like she's cooking spaghetti. So he dips a spoon of sauce, tastes the sauce, reaches in through the window. And she's like, how is it, Earl? It was very good. No, people were pieces of shit back then. It was standard. It was like cute to watch. Like instead of getting outrage as an audience member, which would you most certainly would today.

Yeah. Yeah.

four cast members there fucking pop up shut up your fucking four cast members died during and soon after the filming of the series the series so there was more than how many of them were um there was I think at least three Carol and freely like number two number two I think was at the hotel right that crazy hotel well Carol and his little girl yeah so go go back up to the top Carolyn Freeling was the young point of the series played by Heather O'Rourke. Only six years old, when the first pulter guys film was released, O'Rourke captivated audience. She was misdiagnosed with Crohn's disease in 1987, the following year, O'Rourke fell ill again, and their symptoms were casually attributed to the flu a day later she collapsed and suffered a cardiac arrest. After being airlifted to children's hospital in San Diego, O'Rourke died during the operation to correct a bowel obstruction. It was later believed that she had been suffering from a congenital intestinal abnormality.

So, here's another one. Dominic Dune, who pray the original older sister. Oh, that was the girl with a who gave up the finger. Equally tragic and unforeseen fate. 82 Dune separated from her partner, John Sweeney. November of that year, he showed up at Dune's house pleading for her to take him back when she refused. Weenie grabbed Dune's neck, choked her until she was unconscious and left her to die. He was sentenced to six and a half years in prison, but was released after three years and seven months. Oh my god, if that was my daughter. You imagine your daughter, like three years is not that long. Okay, here we are, in 2023 years ago. 2016 and a half or not even because we're halfway in right more than half way in we're towards the end summer summer of 2017 what and all sudden this guy's out of choked your daughter to death they know chimps have been in prison more than that guy should they should put him with a champ that's what they should do yeah you chuck a woman to death they put you in with a champ and they make you feed the other champ to birthday cake

No, you mean, killed her? Right. Yeah, what the fuck are you talking about? Choked her to death. Yeah, choked her to death. I don't know if I wrote that. Yeah, that's the guy that writes.

Whoops. Yeah, maybe he's just really in a choking. Have you ever been with a girl that wants to get choked? Yeah. Weird, right? Yeah, I'm not into it. Not into it. Yeah. I don't want to let that fucking genie out of the bottle. Last thing you want to do is be really into choking. Right. You know. It's like being really into feet.

But way worse because it could lead to death. Yeah. If you're really into feet and then you did a normal girl and you're like, oh, you know, I'd like to, well, with your feet. You're like, what? Like, for a lot of gals, that would be like a deal breaker. Look for a husband, look for man, take care of your children, look for a person to be responsible. You don't want a guy who wants to beat off on your feet, right? So for a guy who's really into feet and then he breaks up with his woman and tries to get a new one. It's like, oh, feet things kind of important. But that's, but at least that's not dangerous. It's just creepy. Yeah. But for someone who's into choking people, well, he's got a real careful of test those waters. Yeah. You know, like if you were with a girl and that's like you had a crazy relationship for 10 years, how are you just fucking choking each other? And like damn, that's what I miss.

Yeah, but they're still hitting. Right. The slapping's weird. If you slap a woman and she calls the cops, the cops say you hit her as a salt. You stop and slap. I think that's the thing. They do that in a fight. Spitting in someone's face is a salt. There's this crazy video of this woman screaming in this cop's face in New York. She's like, you fucking fascist. And he's just standing there taking, and she spits in his face. He's like, oh, okay. Time to rest you. And he grabs her and she's screaming, what are you doing?

Spitting is a salt. If you're gonna spit in someone's face, you might as well kick them in the ball.

Yeah, that's a fight. Yeah, you spit in someone's face. It's straight punches.

Well, the only difference is you spit someone you know you're not going to kill them. But if you hit someone, you really could kill them. If you hit someone you knock them out and they fall and hit their head in the concrete, they could die. That really can't happen. So this is, I don't think it's the same assaults. It's just, it's fucking gross. It's mean. It's definitely like, you're basically as close to starting a fight as you can without hitting a person. But if you're gonna have a scale of like murder, down to spitting in the face, like there's a difference in what you're doing. You know, you're certainly provoking someone to extreme violence. If you spit in someone's face, you don't leave them a lot of options. Especially if they have a tamper, Like most people be spitting their face, they're going to throw. Yeah. But if you hit someone and they fall and they die, it's not the same thing as spitting in someone's face. Believe me, you're going to jail for a long time. Unless you get the judge to give the guy three years for choking a girl with death in 1982. But it's like I'm telling you the world was a different place back then. Like women are right. How about that? Like I know a lot of these feminists went crazy and some of them went way over the edge, the point where they actually don't like men. But they're right. You watch movies like that and you see a woman who got choked to death in the guy only got three years and she was a movie star. She was in poltergeist and she got choked to death and guy still only got three and a half years. crazy being a woman for most of history must have been fucking terrifying for most of history still terrifying but for most of history like you you hook up with a guy you gotta really worry about this guy killing you it's probably not gonna happen one out of a hundred times but one out of a hundred is like yeah like who's that chick that died while hanging out with Christopher walkin and whoever huh

I can check that out. Is that a name? How can you have it? How do you know your drink?

I need California pushing whiskey. Well, there's a bunch of those stories like Natalie Wood. Is that it? That's the one, right? She drowned on a boat. Christopher Walken was there. Robert Wagner, I think, was the one who people were pointing to finger at.

I was there. I painted tension.

Seems like he would be able. Yeah, Natalie was down. Christopher Walken breaks his silence. Oh, they were arguing. It's true. I watched him the other day in just I just watched the preview of that movie where he can see the future or holds people's hands. Was it called Dead Zone? Was that what it is? Stephen King book? I think it's the Dead Zone. Yeah, I was wild. He was so young, baby-faced. And there was a guy in it who was played by Michael Sheen, who was going to be the president, a crazy ego maniac president, and he wanted to detonate nukes, want to start nuclear war. Christopher Walken could see the future. There he is. He died and came back to life. When he came back to life, he could see the future. When he touched your hand, like he holds your hand, and he could see what's going to happen to you.

Oh, he's great. He's he's been great forever. Him and Harvey Cretel. They don't get enough. Yeah enough love Christopher Walken's been so many great movies man. What's that vampire movie scroll down? What is that? What the fuck is that movie? Seven sleepy hollow. Oh wow. No shit. I don't remember that at all.

Oh, classic. So good. My family and I we watched Nightmare Before Halloween or Nightmare Before Christmas. Yeah. Watch it every year. It's great. It's fucking fantastic.

You know what I watched again recently. Coral line. Do you ever see that? I think that's Tim Burton as well. 99% sure. It's amazing. It's really good. It's really creepy animated. Like so. No, it's not. Who is it?

Tim Burton is uninvolved at all.

Why don't you check Snopes?

We've been going back and forth about Snopes.

Oh, fairly probably their most underrated movie. Yeah.

It's it's an amazing movie and it's amazing movie about bowling. Yep. Yeah, Bill Murray's. He's great as a bad guy. He was a bad guy in Groundhog Day. Yeah. He's a bad guy that became a good guy by the end of the movie.

If you want to be more confident, you have to start taking care of yourself.

Do you see it anywhere? Tim Burton, Coraline. He's nothing.

It looks like one of his movies. That's what's crazy. I assume he did it. Because it's so Tim Burton like, you know, it's, but it's probably someone as a fan. It does like similar weird absurd strange.

Oh, there it is. Oh, okay. Interesting. Burton didn't produce or direct it. Interesting. Just like Nightmare. Oh, okay. Cool. Well, he nailed it. Who over that gentleman is? It's really good. It's just a strange movie about these people that move into this house, and it's all animated. And this little girl finds this door that's been sealed off. Like this little tiny, like two foot door, something like that, but it's been covered in wallpaper, and she finds a key for it, and she opens it up, and it has a tunnel, and she goes through it, and finds a version of her family that's way nicer than her family, but they have buttons for eyes. like the mom is like doting like her parents are writers and all they're doing is like we have to work get out of here trying to work and they're like they're not into hanging out with the kids she's bored it's raining and shitty and then she goes to this weird tunnel and all the people over there are mirrors of her parents but much nicer. All they're into is her. They care about her and her wishes and they give her the most delicious food and they're with her all the time but they want her to have butnise. They want her to stay there forever and then eventually she realized like something is really fucking wrong here and she's going back and forth between the two worlds. It's really cool. So whenever you have kids, Tony, whenever you shoot or live one, it's the old lady. And you make a little baby kid, a little baby, Tony. A little baby kid. Make them to watch Coral on. Okay. Say it could be worse, you little fuck. Look. It's a good lady wants to sell buttons in your eyeballs. Sounds scary. It's a cool movie. Yeah. And they get creepier and creepier as the movie goes on. The parents get progressively weirder and creepier. It's a nice slow burn. Like they start off real sweet spoil alert. And they keep getting weirder and weirder.

How many movies is Johnny Depp in it? Jesus Christ. They booted him out of this new movie because he lost a lawsuit. See that? Yeah. Crazy. Do you see the recordings where she's admitting to hitting him? She's admitting to punching him?

Well, it was a civil suit, right, where he was suing a tabloid for describing him in an inaccurate manner, or describing his life and then he lost that suit and because he lost that suit. I wonder if it's like just the optics of him losing that suit. So the studio has to step in and get rid of him. Right.

I think they still have to pay him though. I think that's also part of the thing. He still gets an eight-figure paycheck. I think it's a stay home. Beautiful.

I wonder if it'd be nice if it just the they he doesn't do the movie but that money just pays her off. Get out. Yep. Stop, let me alone. I don't think she gets any money anymore. I think he's suing her now. I think that's what's happening.

I probably pisses someone off at the way the richest women get to be the richest women is through divorce. Yep. It's probably a lot of women right now that just don't even fucking hear that. Yep.

Did she? I think they were already broken up. Do you want to go?

Like she's fine. Do we don't smoke? She got fucked.

Oh, no, she made, she made like 35 billion, right?

Okay. Yeah, that's the third world race. She's a third world.

She gave a bunch of money to the bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, too. Like I think I think some billies. Crazy. Give a lot of money.

Can you take that back?

Good. Change your mind. So that makes sense. When you get older, stop having periods. Start getting mean. Yeah. Develop some testosterone. That's one of the things that you see old ladies with most ashes. Yeah. They get testosterone. Really? Yeah. Body stops producing as much estrogen. Get a little more rugged. Especially if you have to fend for yourself.

By the way, I'm not a doctor. I don't know if that's true, but I do know that women who've fed for themselves and who run businesses and women who are like entrepreneurs and go getters, they do statistically have higher levels of testosterone. and they think there's a correlation between not just their actions, but when they're forced into the role of the breadwinner and the forced into the role of they actually develop naturally develop more testosterone than they would if they were in a situation where they were married Jeff Bezos, they could just chill. Right. That makes sense. Totally makes sense. People are adaptable.

Oh, I was going to bring her up. Elizabeth Thanos. Yeah. Yeah. You know that's a fake voice. The deep voice you heard. So, you fake Gary. She fake the voice. I want to hear a real bullet. People caught her talking on the phone and they were like, well, who was in your room? And they walked in there and saw her and she'd like saw them. Hey, let me call you back. She pretended to be like a female Steve Jobs. She's like, I know what to do. I'll just act like a man. I'll put on black turtlenecks and everybody celebrated her. Yeah. Everybody's like, you're amazing. You're amazing. They wanted a woman to be an entrepreneur so bad. She was the richest self-made woman ever. I think at one point in time, she was worth more than $9 billion.

Yeah. It was certainly a lot of lies. I don't know if it was all a lie. I don't think it worked. I think they really exaggerated what it could do. And they sold it. I think they sold it to ball greens. And the thing is, it's not just as simple as they lied. It's also that people got medical screenings with that device that weren't accurate. So like maybe you don't feel good, maybe you have a history of cancer in your family and you're like, oh my God, I think I might have something. And then you go to wherever and you get that theronos blood screening. And they go, no, Mike, you're fine. You're like, woo, back to boosin. Oh my God. Meanwhile, Mike's got colon cancer. Mike's got a tumor in his liver. Mike's got, and you never find out because this blood scanner thing is horseshit. How long did they put her away for? They haven't put her away. She hasn't lost in court yet. I believe the company went bankrupt. And then they owe so much money. I think Betsy Devos, I think she's into them for some astounding amount of money. I think she went in for, I want to say it's more than $50 million. And a lot of other like really high profile people got sucked into the narrative, right? The narrative was, here's this genius woman who is really like the female Steve Jobs and she even dressed like Steve Jobs. And it sounded great. I remember here in the store and like, wow, this chick's badass. I remember thinking, like, oh, that's cool. I can get a blood test just by a finger prick. Way better. Because I get blood tests all this time. I always want to find out where my body is. Because I take so many vitamins of nutrients and testosterone replacement and all this shit and AD. I want to find out how healthy I am. Theronos, Holmes may pursue mental disease in her defense. Yeah, I heard about that. Yeah, she might say she's mentally ill, which is why she lied a lot. But there's a really great podcast series about her. The dropout. It's called the dropout. It's excellent. It might be one degree. Find out if it's one degree. Find out who makes it. But it's... Yeah, but it's the podcast series is amazing. When I was living in California, I listened to it like back to back to back until it was over like every week when the new episode would come out and get pumped. Let me see audio. ABC audio. Whoever made it, thumbs up. You guys killed it because it was so compelling. Like you find the store. This is a guy named Sunny who was her boyfriend at drove a Lamborghini. He's a real flashy guy. And the two of them put the scam together, but he claimed to not know what she was doing. And you watched the whole thing on HBO, right?

They didn't know when they knew they were banging. Right. Yeah. They were hiding it. Which is kind of hot. Yeah. Total pretending. Oh, yeah. I'm so tired of Sonny shit. I mean, I think about firing them. Right, emotional. Yeah. Yeah. Sun is like, I think Elizabeth lost her mind.

I think they were doing Coke or something because I think when you see decisions like that that you know like there's no one's gonna work What's happening here? I usually think someone's on some sort of speed and Fedamines Coke something crazy there easily could have been so You know all about this and you never watch the HBO documentary series.

I'm sure it's good. I got the whole story from the ABC podcast series.

Yes. Oh my god.

There's something fascinating about cons. Yeah. Something fascinating.

You know, like, uh, I went to a boxing gym once in North Hollywood in the boxing coach. Never get this. He's like, uh, you should invest in this thing I'm doing. I'm like, what is it? It was a pyramid scheme. He starts describing it to me. And he's like, well, you buy in. And then, uh, when you get other people to join up, then you cash out. I go, I go, you're talking about a pyramid scheme. I can't even know what a pyramid scheme is. He's like, dude, I've been making some money off of this. I go, do you know what a pyramid scheme is? He goes, no, I go, what you described is a pyramid scheme. There's no Google back then. And I was like, God damn it. And I'm like, I got a stop coming here. Like, because the guy wouldn't stop talking to me about this. Really, I'm telling you, you should invest in this. It's a great deal. I'm getting money back. I'm putting money in. You get a bunch of people to join in. I go, where's the money going? Well, they're investing. And what? And what? He was like, he didn't understand. Like, it's like the biggest pyramid scheme ever. The biggest Ponzi scheme is burning in off. It was just super, super, super sophisticated. He got Steven Spielberg. Really? Oh, yeah. He got some sophisticated people. The guy who made Paul to guys also got taken. See, see, find out all the people that got like famous people that got taken by Bernie Mayan off. It's a big list. Yeah, because he was, he was bringing back real returns, like real returns, like you'd get, you know, a certain percentage every year. Like he was just nailing it. And there was a lot of financial people that were like, what is this? What are you doing? Like what this is, this isn't that up. What's happening here?

Yeah. This guy's, this is Andrew Wiener. Is that what it was? Anthony. Anthony Wiener. Yeah. Where's he? He's out of jail, right? He should be doing standup. That's a good idea. That guy's a comic. Steven Spielberg. The director's charity, the Wonder Kinder Foundation lost an undisclosed amount in November 2006. It had assets of 12.6 million and 70% of its interest and dividend income reportedly came from made off. Wow. Kevin Bacon. They got taken and Kira Sejwik. She got taken Norman Brandman. Whoever that is. Uh, Ira Renert. Look at him. He should be taken. Well, I don't trust your tie. I don't like the color of your shirt. If I got here. Jaja Gabor. God damn, they took Jaja, you piece of shit. She suffered a $10 million loss. Oh, no!

Sandy Gofax. Wow. Wow. Who else? Oh my god. Myocovitch! You son of a bitch! They should kill him for that.

Oh, shut up.

Four billion of recovered funds. I wonder how they look at his face. One of the things they said that was really fascinating about him, the cops that handled him. And all the people that brought him to court like he never felt any remorse. Never. He was a straight-up sociopath. He didn't give a fuck. He kept demanding things. He felt he should get more things. Better treatment. Better rooms. No remorse. Never felt bad that all these retirees, these people that do save their whole life and they were going to put all their money in his account hall. Norman, I think we're going to get a good return on our money and just

Jesus Christ. When I am giving you math, advice you got a real problem.

You're so naive. Listen to me. It's like everything. You're playing a game. Okay. Let's say you play them golf, right? And you get you. What's a good handicap? Zero. Zero. Okay. And say, what are you at right now?

Whatever. We'll say everybody starts shitty. Whatever you are, you're better than me. Yeah. What are you?

30? Sure. Okay. You want to be 15, don't you? Right. Then you want to be 5. Yeah. Okay. Well, when you're Elon Musk in your worth 20 billion or whatever, you look at Jeff Bezos, like that piece of shit stealing my ideas. There's a fucking project, blue or whatever that bullshit, rocket formula thing. He's got lying about his achievements. I want to beat him. Right. When you're Jeff Bezos and you realize like you're worth 150 billion but you realize some Saudi oil guys are probably worth a couple of trillies. I don't know, it won't be nice. Maybe the first legit trillian hair from the Western world and then you did like why wouldn't Bezos quit? Why is any stop working? Why is he just lying to beat somewhere? Get his balls massage and drink coconut juice. Why? Why do people keep working? They keep working because it's a sickness because numbers. You get numbers. You want more numbers. There's one thing you're getting numbers doing what you love to do. Like if you're a baseball player and they keep paying you more than you love baseball. But if you're just a straight-up numbers man, you never fucking satisfied. You want more numbers. What is it? Bernie made off asking Trump to reduce his prison sentence for massive Ponzi scheme. What year is this? It's the last year. Oh, I hope he does. I hope he does just for the spectacle at all. I hope he pardon Snowden and I hope he pardon Julian Assange. Let's made off out his OJ Simpson a full pardon. What else would you? Yeah, it's on our eights Mike Tyson just it goes down the list of everyone who ever went to jail for how many partens do you get? Oh my god, what if he just opens up the prisons? Everyone pardon he might don't know what if he changes that opens up the prisons makes everyone pardon for every crime ever And then you can all vote. Everything except murder and rape.

Well, he already fired. Was it Secretary of State? No. The Secretary of Defense? Yeah. He fired the Secretary of Defense. I mean, when you're firing people two months in, and there was a... Maybe it was New York Times article was reading about his schedule. They were saying he chose little interest in his job right now. Yeah, but what he's backed He just lost the election. Do you expect a guy that played golf more than any other president ever in the history of presidents who complained about Obama playing golf? Was playing golf more than anybody ever? When he tells him the jobs over, he's not going to make it. He's not going to keep working. Why would he do that?

Well, you like bad guys.

No. You should watch it. That's the whole theme of the movie. Really? The show, the series. Yeah. You remember the bad guy that Ralph Machio fucked up? Mm-hmm. He's the guy you root for in the Cobra Kai series. Wow. It's really good. It's really good. It's really cheesy. In a good way. It's like watching a really well written 1980s movie, but it goes on for hours and hours and hours and hours. Wow. It's like a Netflix 1980s movie with 2020 writing, but like an homage to 1980s movies. And Ralph Machio.

He's the bad guy. But he's also a good guy. He's a good guy, but he's making some really fucking petty decisions. And you kind of root against him. And the bad guy is kind of a fucking loser. But you kind of root for him.

Ralph Machio's a winner. He's got a car agency. He's doing real well. Yeah, Laruso. Laruso auto sales. Fucking great.

It's a difference. You saw him from a distance.

That's the yellow Johnny Lawrence. Yeah, Johnny Lawrence. What is his real name? Um, he's really good though. The actor. Um, I don't know what he's done since Cobra Kai. I hope he's had like regular jobs. I haven't seen him in anything. No.

This is a bill burst suggestion. Bill burst suggestion. William is a bucket. Yeah, that's it. I knew it was a Z Zabka. He's really good. He's really good in it. I knew a lot of those karate duches when I was a kid. I knew a lot of those guys. There was never surrender. No, we're true. Never surrender. Yeah.

Well, they weren't the best schools. Like my school, I was really lucky. I found this school when I was 15 years old. I had a place that I went to before that in Newton. It was Joe Espizito's karate school, and he was like a Newton legend. He was a karate guy. It was a good school, but I didn't have The method to get there. It was too hard to get there. I had to get my parents to get me rides and they couldn't do it in time. Because by the time they got off work, the class had already started. There was no public transportation when I was 14 that could get me there. So I didn't go that often. But then the T, which was the Massachusetts Boston train system, dropped me off like two blocks away from the J-Hun Kim type when known to it. And I found it when I was 15. I got super super lucky because they were the most hardcore and this was in 1980. They were there it was just different. I guess I was 15 so it was 81-ish 81-82. It was they were hardcore man, but they weren't like no no retreat no surrender. It wasn't there was none of that shit. It was yes sir no sir honor bowing you know it was like you had the tenets of talk window that you had to follow there was um there was no shenanigans or fuckery but there was no tough guy shitty there there was it was like it's very stoic you know it was it was but I we would go to tournaments and you would see those no retreat no surrender you see those guys and they they weren't good right That was part of the problem. So they were trying to make up for the lack of the skill and the lack. It's all about lineage, man. It's all about who's teaching you, like whether or not you learn your techniques correctly. Because if you go to a bad school, one of the things that I found out when I was teaching is it's really hard to unlearn shit when I would teach people things. Like if they had a background in like a martial art that In the 70s and the 80s, there was no YouTube, right? So like you had to find a good instructor and you didn't know who the good instructors were. Some guys had bad technique, but they were just bad asses and they figured out how to win with bad technique. But then they would go up against someone who was also a bad ass who had better technique and then you would see the difference. Like the really good guys, the tough guys that didn't have the right technique, they would eventually fall off. And it was really hard for them to relearn stuff. So when I would teach people it would be real hard to relearn stuff. Like the best students were people that knew nothing. The best students were girls because they didn't have any macho bullshit. Like one of my best students was a girl that I trained from the time she was 15 to she was like 18. I was so proud of her. I would take her to karate tournaments. There's tag one no tournaments and she would do well. It was like this crazy weird mentor relationship. I have this girl. She was she would listen to everything. She never thought she knew more than you. So I'd have like 50 people in my class, but this one girl just would show up every day. Her parents would bring her and they would encourage her. It was really cool. But girls wouldn't, they wouldn't fight you on things. Like guys, I would teach them, I'm like, you gotta pick your knee up. There will sometimes when the guys close, I look to do it like this. I'm like, okay. Listen to me, you gotta pick your knee up. Yeah. Do you want to kick like that guy? You want to kick like John Lee? You gotta pick your knee up. You gotta do it right. Guys would have like this weird ego shit. Girls wouldn't have it. I would say you have to pick your knee up there to go like this. And they're like, yes, and then turn like that. And they would just do it. And if you learn the right way, you had a way better path. So I got stupid lucky than I walked into the right school and found these people that were like hard core with technique, everything had to be done correctly. And if you were off at all, We called every instructor was Mr. Mr. O'Malley or Mr. McMaster. Mr. O'Malley, Mr. Kim, they were correct to you. Not like that like this. Didn't matter how hard you were hitting the back. If your knee was low or if your knee was, everything, your position was wrong, your foot wasn't pivoted. They would correct you. Techniques everything. You know that from wrestling, right?

It's a golf. It's a great thing. Everything.

fall over and look like a complete moron that's why it's so good to learn new things yeah because when you learn new things you start from scratch you get to be a beginner again yeah and one of things that i think plagues a lot of people is they they'd never become beginners again things and so you get proficient at something and then you become stagnant like whatever it is, whether it's martial arts or whether it's even pool. I would remember when I would play in tournaments a lot. There was guys that never got better. Like they were where I was when I first started and then I got way better and they were the same. Same with martial arts. Some people they do something for a long time but they never do it right. They always have like these weird flaws in their style or their execution of the technique. But I think getting good at anything, whether it's chess, or golf, or playing a musical instrument, I think that's one of the most important things a person can do is learn something from scratch, where you suck at it. I'm trying to think of the next thing, because I'm not great at archery, but I'm pretty good. I'm pretty proficient. I know how to keep my shit together when it comes to the moment of truth, when I'm like in a bow hunting scenario, because I've been nervous a lot, doing stand up and fighting, and all the other shit I've ever done. I need something new. I'm trying to figure out what it should be. But I think guns, like learning a shoot pistols correctly, like that parent tactical, that helped a lot. That was an interesting thing to do to get better at that because you realize that this is a totally different thing than anything else you do. And so you're learning from all the people there, like how to hold it correctly, grab it really hard with your right hand, but your left hand rather than your right hand, you don't really grab that hard, which is interesting because that's the trigger finger. But you don't have a lot of tension in that. The tension is more in your left hand. And all these techniques you learn from this like people that win these world championships and shooting, anything you're doing, man, whatever it is, whether it's yoga or any just try something new.

But if he doesn't go off with Donald Trump, No, because that's what he does.

I want to go to Mara Logo. I live in Florida. I want to go to Mara Logo.

I'm dead serious. I will listen to me. Yeah. Don't you think Trump would have videos of him being awesome at golf? Yeah, that's out there. Let's watch him. Okay. Do you think you have videos of Trump? Like you have videos of many Pacquiao run down pool. I told you many Pacquiao's like legit pro. You saw it. I think there's these videos of Trump playing like many Pacquiao, please pool.

I'm telling you a hum right about the talking nonsense. How and why President Trump treats golf. Even when he's playing against Tiger Woods. Yeah.

But people to play golf are generally business oriented folks. Business oriented folks want better tax breaks. They're the kind of people that are going to be conservative. Yeah. So they're going to buy golf magazine. Yeah. People who write about golf maybe a little bit more liberal because they're journalists? Yeah.

What's the conservative newspaper? Trump doesn't just cheat it off. He cheats like a three-card Monti dealer.

He fudges and fuzzles and fluffs. A winged foot where Trump is a member. The caddies get so got so used to seeing him kick his ball back onto the fairway. They came over the nickname for it. Paylay. That's a nickname for him. Paylay.

I play with him once says Brian Marshall a long time winged foot member and the chair of the coming 2020's men's US open. I would say that's a legit source. His quote, it was a Saturday morning game. We got to the first team and he couldn't have been nicer. But then he said, you see those two guys? They cheat. See me? I cheat. And I expect you to cheat because we're gonna beat those two guys today. It's being funny. So, yes, it's true. He's gonna cheat you. But I think Donald in his heart of hearts believes that you're gonna cheat him too. So, if it's the same, if everybody's cheating, he doesn't see it as really cheating. Okay. Well, that makes sense because I would think that a lot of his friends are dirt bags too. Like one of the things about joke thieves, right? We all know this. They take kids on the road with them and those kids become joke thieves, right? Yeah. It's name names. Yep. But we know we know comics who started out working for thieves. Yep. And those comics became thieves. No doubt. Yeah, because they realize this kind of Mercedes. Yeah. It was in a nice house.

That's how it's done. Right. You're real. If you grow up in the wrong environment, you really You think that that's the way to do it, you know? And I think if you're in that fucking doggy dog crazy ego maniac, pre-internet business world, which trump me 74, right? It was 50 when the internet came around. Stop them think about that, right?

Come on, son. So you could just keep being a douchebag.

That's a lot of those men. That's weird about LA. You don't see a lot of those three card-monti things. Have you ever seen three card-monti? Yeah. And is that what the comic York Yeah, yeah. Well, it's cards. Three card monies with cards, but the cup thing is a similar kind of scan. It's like a little ball into the cup and they move the cups around. He's just like a slight of hand. Yeah. When you see David Blaine manipulate cards, you realize like, oh, okay, like there's levels to everything. Like David Blaine can do crazy shit with cards. Like he did shit with my daughter. Like he did these card tricks and I was watching everything he did and I have no idea how he did it. Like he did things where like cards would he have a stack of cards and he'd keep tapping the stack and the stack would go small and small to those like two cards. You have no idea how he did it. He just looked at him like what are you doing? Like it's like he's got access to time travel and he's like pulling those cards out when you're not looking and then coming back to normal time like it didn't make

How about the ones we did where the guys were holding his wrist? We had our security guys hold each of his, he asked them to do it. Hold each of his wrists, he rolled his sleeves up, and he made these cards disappear. You know, like, what is happening? Oh my God. What are you doing?

Yep.

He's so advanced.

And then they figure out how to do it. What's an example?

I think it's a whole world, where there's things that they understand. They know where the average person, you're looking at a deck of cards, you have an idea of what's possible with that deck of cards, but they have just ten x times more options how to hold them how to move them how to maneuver those cards how to distract you with the other hand yeah I mean I'd like to hang around with David Blaine for a few months yeah and watch him do tricks it ended up being one of the most fun gigs I ever worked on there was just I'd get home after a day of work and I'd find like the seven of spades in my shoe like this guy forgot to finish that one he's tough to fold in card under Jeff's watchband And he's like, uh, where's the card? And he's in just like, where'd it go? He was, look at your wrist. He's like, what? And he like realized like it was folded and stuffed under his watchpan. And he has a fucking g-shock, right? So it's, it's not like a loose, crazy watchband. It's a tight buckle rubber strap watchband. He stuffs it in there. And he's like, what the fuck? And I'm like, what the fuck? No one saw it. And that's what you were filming some of it, right?

He's a really nice guy really nice guy like genuinely nice on camera off camera with everybody with security guys with my family with everybody Like you can tell, it's just really nice, friendly, genuine guy. But some of this stuff he does is fucking weird. Like you may be shoving icepick through his bicep?

Um, it's not a trick, right? It's just pain. And, um, I think a pain is just a sensation, right? And if you could just tolerate the sensation, It's not deadly. And one time I hit a nerve and we had to back it out and do it again. I had to do it a second time because I got in there and he's a thumbs up, thumbs up. I'll get hit the nerve. So I had to back out and do it again. I think it was supposed to be more disturbing and impressive than I reacted to it because First of all, I'm used to pain, you know, I've been doing martial arts most, I'm always hurt, I've had a bunch of surgeries, and also I've butchered animals, like I understand muscle tissue and I'm not, it's just like, why are we doing this? So it was more why we doing this than oh my god I can't believe we're doing this like that one was not a good one for me because it's like okay like I could do that too like if you want to shove that through my arm I could just sit here. Well you shove that through my arm. I wouldn't like it though. Did he bleed? Yeah, he bled a little bit. Yeah We had a stop and Refilm because he had like a little bit of a hematoma, right, Jamie, wasn't it? Like a little building up, yeah. Yeah, and so the security guys had put it like a fucking band-aid on it, shit, check it out, some one of them's a medic.

No, no, I shoved it through his muscle. 100%. But you can do that. I'll pick was it. The needle. It was an ice pick. But I'm telling you, you can do that. You know, there's guys. This is one of the things that we found out during the show that I don't know. There's guys that would shove swords through their body. Their whole gig was shoving swords through their body. And we watched it live. I mean, not live. We watched videos of these guys shoving swords through this one guy's body. Who's famous for it? So it would take like a long thin sword and they shove it through his chest and come out the other end. And he'd just be standing there with his sword through. Yeah, so here's me. Did you see this? No. So here's me shove it. Why? Yeah, he's like showing me how to do it, but just through here. Yeah, just shove it through. No. Yeah, poke it right through 100% real. But again, That's not the best one for me. Because if you're a person who doesn't necessarily see a lot of pain or you haven't used surgery or someone getting, if you did that to a doctor, the doctor would be like, okay, I see what you're doing. Just pushing something through the muscle and it probably hurts, right? It's not a good joke or a trick. It's not a illusion. He just doing something that hurts. I go, okay. Like Steve Oak would do that. Steve Oak's probably done that a hundred times. He does things like that.

I think, but Steve Oak climbed in a fucking tree and had lions come chasing after him. Yeah. Like he's he's the best. Yeah, he does a lot of shit. He did a frog thing too though. That was like another. That was a different thing. He swallowed a frog. He swallowed a shitload of water. So during the podcast, he probably drank like it's 15. He probably drank 15 bottles of water, something crazy. And then he swallowed his frog. And then the frog is in his stomach with all the water that he swallowed. And then he spit up the water slowly but surely in a buckwheat and ice bucket on the table. And then he eventually got to the point where he felt the frog coming up and he spit the frog out into my hand.

Good. Yeah. I mean, he knows how to do it.

What's amazing is a Steve of walks around like he's fine. It doesn't seem that hurt. I mean, one time real recently had a bunch of skin grafts. Remember he got real badly burnt? Yeah.

Is that this one this new thing? No, this one's a while ago, but my friend Tim Kennedy who was a top notch middleweight and UFC put the fucking choke to him choked him completely unconscious and let him go and he falls bounces his head off the ground.

I mean while I was just hanging out. Oh my god.

It doesn't really have a bite. Look at this. Oh my god. Johnny Knoxville just kicked him right in the balls and dick. Hmm.

Yeah.

Yeah, it's not good.

So we're way to make a living though, right? Because after a while. Real is, you know, you're gonna go who Dini eventually. Someone's gonna hit you with something. You're gonna die. Something's gonna go wrong. But maybe not, because he's been doing it. How old is Steve O? 45? Probably, yeah. 45? 46 or 46. Yeah. Been doing it a long ass time. Yeah. I think he was gonna let Chuck Liddell punch him.

I think that was one of the things he was doing. Something was gonna happen. Johnny Knoxville got knocked out by butterbeen. It was a enormous man. Yeah. And he let him knock him out. He had a boxing match of butterbean, which means you're going to let butterbean knock out. Right. You're not going to win.

No. No. No. No. No, it was a regular glove. Look at a nice regular 10 ounce glove. It sent him into the DMT dimension. It's regular glove, right? I don't think it's even a sparring glove. I don't think it's a 16 ounce or an 18 ounce glove. I think it's a legit 10 ounce heavyweight boxing glove. Butterbean. Who's this?

Oh, this is different. He found him in a ring, too. This is inviting him in a store.

Look, he beats the shit out of him. That's legit. You just beat him down and this lady's like, what? And the fuck? Look at these people. But this is legit. He's not like faking it. So this means that Johnny Knoxville got knocked out by butter being more than once. Because those actually, those look like 16 ounce gloves will be honest. Those are bad gloves that Johnny has on. Because they have velcro on them. Oh, he's letting him hit him. He let him have a couple. Oh, but Johnny does not have a punch. That's not fair. And then he chaos them.

They did, uh, no, I'm thinking about it for sure, jackass, where someone boxed butter bean in a ring, who was an actual ring.

I'm pretty sure someone boxed him in a ring. See, that's why it's a WrestleMania. Yeah, but it's not that. See, um, butter being chaos. Uh, Texas butter being chaos, Steve.

Yeah, but just take off jackass. Just butter being knocks out, Steve O. One of the guys thought it was it was it only what's that one that will keep going down the one right below Eric? Yeah, that one right there. That's the no no right below that Sorry when we just watch is that the same thing. It's all giant acts for one, but there's one in a ring. Maybe it's like a false memory

Oh, that right hand is a wide open area. See how low is left in. It's so crazy. Yeah. That's so crazy. You can't you can't do that. He's gonna get up because he's tough.

Well, not only that, he got beaten like legit.

Look, he still has left him low. Oh my God, that is so bad. That's such a bad KO. Go back to that again. So that guy that fights over. Look. Oh my God. That's horrendous. That's horrendous.

I kind of have this false memory of butterbean fighting Johnny Knoxville in a ring. Yeah, I just didn't know a few things like just getting I was looking for any other celebrity or something that did maybe, but maybe it's it's not stivo tail by butterbean. Either way. Butterbeam was a fucking tank of a human. He was a weird guy. He was like the king of the three rounders. There was a five rounders. What would they make him fight? But it didn't really have the endurance to go 12. So he would go short distances.

Dude, he hit some once.

He's so big. You're not going to kill him. He doesn't have a neck. His head starts at the top. His neck starts here. It goes straight out. It's not like a lot of getting KO does you get twisted right? Your head washes around. Your brain washed around inside your head. Did I had a crazy dream? I remember remembering it. That a friend of mine was telling me that he's got an opening between his skull and his brain. He has to close. And I was like, what are you talking about? And he like lifted his skull up. And I was like looking into his brain. And there was all his space. There was like his brain. And then all this space. And then the skull on the outside. And I was like, whoa, you got to get that fixed.

I think everybody has to move to Texas, selling way to keep comedy alive. They're going to keep L.A. on lockdown for a long time and definitely seems that way.

Joe Biden's found the cure for tonight.

Yeah, John Joseph sent me this. Yeah. Yeah, that also, uh, vaccines. Yeah. They're going to have it connected to vaccines. Ticket master. I saw ticket master into a live nation venue. Yeah. So if you're going to come to a show, listen. This is very controversial, right? I'm all for testing. If you can test the day off and then get in, like there's rapid tests like we did rapid tests today, you do a 15 minute test. The problem with the vaccine is right now, like the Pfizer vaccine, if you read into it, 90% are effective. It's really good. But the people that do it, they get horrific headaches and real bad hangovers. And what their experiencing sounds a lot worse than what Jamie experienced. having actual COVID. Tell me what it was like having actual COVID.

Yeah, you didn't think you had it. You thought you had hay fever or something.

Yeah, people get weird allergies. They're weird allergies out here. There's a cedar allergy around here, but it's not really cedar. I forget with all this. No, it's a kind of plant. It's a tree. It's a type of tree. It's not really cedar. It's a juniper or some shit. What is it actually? I'm looking. I think it's juniper. There's something that gets you for whatever reason they call it cedar allergies, but it's not really cedar. Um, but apparently for a lot of folks out here, they don't get it the first year. They don't get it the second year. They get it like the third year. Yikes.

And what is the actual plant that gives you that shit?

Oh, mm-hmm. So it could be a different thing. Why don't you go to school or also? Seeder fever is actually from blank. Because someone was telling me that it's a different point, and I was like, why do they call it Seeder fever, then he's like, oh, but anyway.

The patriarchy? Yeah, I mean, does that how you say patriarchy? Jamie's so addicted to bullshit. He doesn't even say patriarchy.

Um, yeah. What is the actual point, though? Are they saying seeders as well? Maybe the guy who told me was different as bullshit. Maybe some of those guys like to know things, but it doesn't believe in Google. That's weird, man. Those fucking bullshit artists used to be a thing. You know, guys just tell you stuff and you're like, really? Yeah, man. Well, when JFK was killed, they immediately went underground.

The murder? Yeah. See Jeffrey Epstein. Here's a thing. Great point. Here's the thing about murders today. It is equally horrific as murder is in 1963, but there's also more information coming at you. It never ends. It's never ends. It's like voting controversy and T fatigues over Seattle. fucking da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da that is like if I had a really interesting conversation with if it was rare for me to have an interesting conversation with people if I worked in a factory and very rarely I get to sit down have a cup of coffee with some scientists it tells me it's really cool shit I would be telling everybody about that story I'd be like dude I had this conversation three hours just mean the scientist and he's telling me all kinds of crazy shit I would remember all of it. But I see too many. I have too many, too many of those stories. And they just get lost in my head. I think that's how we are with everything today. That's why no one gives a fuck who killed Jeffrey Epstein. Have you, like, had a national, like, there was a clock or a chart, rather. that showed national interest in the Jeffrey Epstein murder. It was like 20% and now it's like zero zero zero point one. No, he doesn't fuck. No one's Google Jeffrey Epstein murder on Twitter. You know, like three crazy people that also are into Q and on and they're they're bringing up the Epstein thing is, you know, someone found the records. Remember the records from the flight logs are out. Everyone's fucked are all going to jail. Came and went. Nobody cares. Bill Gates went. Did your bull Gates went? Came and went. Nobody cares. Nobody cares. All right. We're going to use Michael Wood and Summer when that stuff came out. Yeah. I'll back down to you.

That's how we are. That's, I mean, they probably anticipated that when it killed them.

You know, there's so much news. Yep. Yeah, they probably just figured we can get away with those. And they kind of can't. And if things get more and more chaotic, which they appear to be dealing, it's going to get worse with that. You know, it's going to get even more strange. It's going to get weird and weird and weird or Tony.

Mexico starts being more safety in the United States. People start moving to Mexico. United States gets more and more crazy or you go to Canada. But Canada doesn't let us in. It's too cold there. Well, it's not even that. They don't want us. Great. I'm glad they don't want us. We become Mexico Canada becomes United States. It's not too cold there.

Yeah. Epstein thing. Yeah. NBC. Wasn't it? It was ABC.

It was I wrong. Is it NBC or ABC? Was it a lady? Oh, X ABC news staff or Sue's Disney own network over leaked Jeffrey Epstein tape. Ashley. Oh, it is ABC. And we're seeking $10 million. Yeah. Okay. I was wrong that. According to New York, I thought it was NBC.

Is that her?

How's it different one?

But the reporter was the girl who's on it's saying I broke that story. I knew that story with it. Then they buried it. Yeah.

Oh, that girl got fired for leaking the tape. Oh, good for her. Good for her. Hope someone hires her.

So she did. Good. She should. That's a crazy thing to hide.

Yeah, that's her. Yep. Yeah. Good. Whatever happened to that lady, the lady who leaked it. See, the real worry is that they would blackball someone like that and keep them from working again. Someone needs to come up with a legit network online, like a legit news network. of like really trusted news people and just give them total autonomy never restrict them and then give them a security detail everywhere they go expensive fuck yeah is but if you think about how much money they make it like fox news and

Yeah. Oh, no doubt. It's not cheap. Look at what's happening right now with Fox News. You know, people are abandoning Fox News. because they think that Fox News is turning on conservatives, because there was people in the Trump campaign that were talking about the election results, election results being fraudulent and all these different things. And so Fox News said, this is these are unfounded accusations, so they cut away from this guy explaining this, and the conservatives are freaking out. Because what Fox news is trying to say is like, hey, you guys, this is not true according to them or it's at least not accurate. Like the amount of voter fraud is not accurate or maybe it's not enough to sway the election one way or another. It hasn't been proven. So when someone says it, they for whatever reason decide that they're going to stop that person saying it from broadcast to get on the air. It's an interesting choice. Because in one hand, I see their point. If it's not true, you really shouldn't put it on the air. But in the other hand, it's like the president's people are saying this. So it makes it news. Even if it's not accurate, I think you're supposed to let it air and then say, this is what's wrong with what he said in terms as far as what we know right now. But it's a tough call. Like if you were the head of Fox and someone starts coming out on the air and saying some shit that you think is fake, what do you do? What do you do?

If it seems like it's going to be Joe Biden in office, you've got to make a, you've got to hedge your bets. Because if you get into a situation where imagine if, and this is not outside of what's possible, imagine if, whether it's Biden or the next administration who the fuck it is gets in a power and they say, we're going to make laws. that punished people for spreading false propaganda for punished people who spread fake news we're gonna make laws against it and we're gonna decide what's fake and what's real and so then Fox News gets fined hundred million dollars five hundred million dollars they get they get they go blank they go dark for a week they have to stay off the air for a week some crazy shit yeah because they decide that their enemies of the current administration and the current administration gets to support of the people because support of the people like most of the people are into the president and they they can like what if they have control of the house or control this you know what they could do it technically they could do it You never know, not now, right now, and I don't think they can do it, but it's not impossible. If you think of the people that have been silenced from Twitter, right? People have been kicked off of Twitter, people that have been kicked off of Facebook, New York Post, New York Post, I kicked off of Twitter for that hundred-baridin story. That would have never, you've never would have imagined that being possible just a few years ago. But it's possible now. So now we have a new sense of what's possible. If you keep taking that further and further, you can see how Fox News ability, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, kill that. Right. We got a business here. Group of Murnock. He's alive, right?

Group of Murnock's not alive anymore?

Doesn't Rupert have a super hot wife.

There's something about those like purely transactional relationships. Oh, yeah. What's the new one?

What? Come on, son. For real, let me see a picture over and him together. Give me that one right there. Whoa, yeah.

Well, maybe he's nice to her. Wow, she was hot. It's fucked back when she was at the neck. Jesus Christ. Let me see that upper left picture that you just clicked on upper left. Yeah, upper left. Yeah. Look at that again. Yeah.

He loves him. Yeah, Tony. Maybe. Wasn't, look at that. Look at that.

He's got does of a hot body. If you're really in the like anatomy, you want to know where the skeletons are. Like that's what I like in a man. I want to know where all his joints are. I don't want anything to be cloaked by meat.

I could see it beating through his weird translucent ribcage.

Honestly.

Stay wealthy? Yeah, I'm gonna live a long time. Yeah. Unless I do something really stupid.

It's gonna be interesting.

Yeah, I'm not into buying things like that. Right. I think, um, I think it's possible today to live to be 120. Yeah, I think with the right. And I think what we're dealing with now, we're on the cusp of what's possible. I want to, I don't want to see any names, but I was having a conversation the other day with a bill in there. A very wealthy man who believes he's going to live to be 200 years old. Wow. Yeah. He's explaining to me all the different things that he does and where he thinks like medicine and science is going to go.

Don't do all the things he did in this podcast. Don't drink whiskey and smoke cigars. I think for sure exercise. It seems to be the number one thing. You have to keep your body moving. You have to keep your blood flowing and you have to keep your body strong. Keep your body vital. There's a difference between working out and overtraining. overtraining seems bad for you. I have a friend who's 28 who caught the COVID and he's in a really good shape, but he caught it when he was working out really hard. He was doing a fitness instructional and he was training way, way, way too hard, like really beating his body down and then he caught it and he caught it pretty bad and he had it bad for a couple of weeks. He's young and healthy. So the thing about training, and this is the thing about guys training for fights, they get sick a lot, because you're breaking your body down, you're getting to this, like there's a fine line between training hard and overtraining. It's a really fine line, and it's hard for people to find the exact spot to land in. A lot of fighters overtrain. Tim Kennedy, you guys we talked about earlier. He famously overtrained for his last fight with Kelvin Gaslam because he had a fight cancel. He went through a full six week training camp and then a fight canceled and then he got another fight come up in another six weeks or five weeks I think and he went straight I'm not sure about the time but he went straight into another full camp and then by the end of that camp he was so tired. He just never gave himself a you body can't sustain like peak performance levels for very long You can sustain a good level for a long time, but you gotta know when to peek and when to back off and really good fight trainers, they know when a fighter is too sharp. They look like you're peeking. We're gonna pull you back. And so they'll pull them back and they'll say take a few days off. they'll they'll tell you like go watch TV go lounge in the pool swim a little bit just relax go for a hike chill the fuck out let your body recover let your body recover let all that broken down tissue rebuild itself Let your body just rebound and then come back at it again, but do it slowly. So the smart ones, they're monitoring heart rate, heart rate, this thing that I wear, the hoop strap. That's what that's all about. It's all about monitoring how well your body's recovered. Like every morning when I check my app, I check my hoop app and it tells me how well I've recovered from the night before. Whether or not I'm in, whether or not I'm good to go for today or whether or not I should take an easy day. It'll show you based on your heart rate variability. But a lot of guys don't do it that way. They just don't want to be a pussy. You know, they just want to keep pushing and keep pushing and you can break your body down doing that and that's when guys get sick. And if you get sick when your body is already tired and compromised and then a virus gets in there and weakens you even further, you can get really sick. I had pneumonia once for a tournament that I went to. It was when I was training really, I was training like a moron. I never wore a heart rate monitor. I wasn't even taking vitamins back then. I was just eating whatever and training like a terrorist. And then I came out here. I came out to California, I fought in this tournament in Anaheim. I was 19, so it was like 86, 1986. I fought in the nationals in Anaheim and I had pneumonia. And I fought three times when pneumonia was horrible. And then the next day I was so, so fucking beaten down. I was so tired. And I can't believe I was like, how did I fight yesterday? Like, what the fuck? But that's also what happens when you take yourself past fitness and you don't want to be a pussy. So you keep pushing, keep pushing, but it's really dumb. Like a smart athlete knows when to back off. Like an experienced athlete knows their body really well and they know when to back off. But the right way to do it is with heart rate monitors. The right way to do it is like Steve Maxwell told me that a long time ago you should check your heart rate in the morning and if it's more than X amount of beats per minute over your standard resting heart rate, it means your body hasn't recovered yet so you should not work out that day. And it's hard for people to do that. Or if you do workout, you should work out really lightly. Like maybe do some positional drills that doesn't tax your body. Like do some things where you're like framing and just go through everything in slow motion where you never really break yourself down. But it's also sometimes people want to do too much too soon. Like my friend Camhaines. Yeah. Camhaines when he's training for ultra marathons will run a marathon every day. That's not fake. Like I've seen him do it. I know he does it. He shows me his fucking his his his underarmory app that he uses or tracks his his his distance every day. It's bananas, but he's done it because he's he's done that slowly but surely he's built up this base over decades of of training hard. You couldn't just go out and do that. And if you ask, like, they used to be conventional science or conventional wisdom rather would be that if you run a marathon, you need to take six months off. You started marathon's every day because there's levels like you can build up. So the athletes that stay in shape have a much better chance at getting through a training camp and not being overtrained. But the athletes that take a lot of time off and party. Those are the ones that wind up a foul.

Oh, go pee. Okay. Jamie's gone, too. You're gonna pee with Jamie. This is the first time ever that I've been left alone on a podcast, ladies and gentlemen, and I already talked too much. So now what to do? I think that all of us are real nervous right now. I think this is an unprecedented time in history where everyone is wondering what's going to happen next. Everyone is wondering. And it's so easy to say that we need to be more empathetic and we need to be more nice to each other. But I really do think that that is something that we need to concentrate on. This idea that like people are making lists of people that voted for Trump and supported Trump and that they're going to put them on these lists and they're going to send these lists out to potential employers and You gotta give people the opportunity to make mistakes and you gotta keep people the opportunity to grow and you gotta give people the opportunity to have a different opinion than yours. And just to say that if you support that guy you support this or that or whatever horrible thing it is, whether you think it's racism or fascism or whatever ism it is. I really think now more than ever is a time to come together as a country and to realize this is not healthy for anybody to divide ourselves into these two groups. And the more we push against, especially the people that won, the people in the Biden camp are now like, now we're going to make literally even AOC wrote that. We're going to make a list of all the sick offense and supporters of Trump. I don't think that's the right way to do it. I think historically black lists and lists of people that are forbidden from working or forbidden from being considered a part of accepted culture. It's very dangerous. People are malleable and people make mistakes. They fall into groups of people that have different opinions. which has got to be legitimately got to be nicer to each other. That's what I think. And it sounds so cliché that we have to be nicer to each other, but that's what this country fucking needs. We need to realize, like, yeah. Yeah, it's fucked up. Yeah, we're in a fucked up place. Yeah, it's fucked up that people were riding in the streets and it's fucked up that there's police brutality and it's fucked up that this COVID and it's fucked up that people are losing their jobs, but the only thing we have together if we're we really truly are community is to treat each other like we're a community. You know, you could be like, if I imagine a world where there's a Republican and a Democrat living right next to where do we each other and they joke around and they laugh about stuff and they talk to each other and they they have different opinions. What? I have to tell you.

Oh, okay. I thought you went. I did. You came back when you shot. Oh, go back.

What's happening. Jamie just cut his P short. Now his balls are aching. It's got a shit. It's got a shit himself.

And whiskey. Yeah. Makes you pee. Yeah. I don't know why I don't have to pee. I don't have to be at all. It's weird. Sometimes I have to do though. I've had podcasts where particularly after yoga because after yoga I drink a fuckload of water because I do that hot yoga and I'll bring a 64 ounce hydroflask with me filled with ice and water. I'll drink that whole thing during a yoga class. Then afterwards it's we just pee, pee, pee, pee. Yeah. Can't stop it.

Are you worried about the future Tony?

How old are you now? 36. Yeah, that makes sense. Because I was, uh, I think I was 30. And I think I remember, I remember hearing about it going Holy shit. I couldn't believe it. Meals 31. I couldn't believe it. And then I remember thinking, wow, everyone's so unified. All these people with American flags on their cars. Do you remember that? Yeah.

Do you remember Jay London? Yeah. Jay London used to sell those American flags. You're sticking your car. Wow, really? Yeah, yeah. Jay and I, uh... Is that pre-last comic standing or? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, because last college standing was later in the 2000s, right? Wasn't it? I think so. 2003 or four, he was on last college standing? Yeah. He had a moment in the sun. Yeah. There for a while. Yeah. But before that, he was essentially just like a street vendor. He was selling these American flags. Little ones attached to your window. Wow.

There's a little bit of that for sure. Yeah. And then there's also COVID in the lockdown, which exacerbated everything because so many people are stressed out and out of work. There's some crazy number, like 30% of the people in this country can't pay rent. Right. That's never happened before. It's in our lifetime. And how does that bounce back? That's my point about Melrose, like in a big city, who's going to invest in going back into those places? You know, when you see these closed down places to bring them back up, to imagine a time where you're gonna drive down Melrose and all those stores are filled again and there's all hustle and bustle and traffic and people walking on the streets and not dangerous fucking gangsters everywhere. Like it seems weird now, right?

this thing for the comedy store where I was Whitney Cummings and Bill Burr and Paul Rodriguez and Annie Letterman and Jay Leno and me and we're on a roof with Mike Binder and we were, it was the first time I've been in Hollywood in a long time and the first time I've been at the store in a long time and it was really emotional. And it was sad and I was sitting there hanging out and and you realize there's no one on sunset. No one and every now and then like Lamborghinis would go racing down sunset like flying like you would hear bird like going 90 miles an hour plus down sunset no cops I was like this is crazy like this is so strange.

One of the last times I was at the comic store, I got pulled over because my muffler was too loud.

Does he ask for the idea? No, no. It goes, um, I was pulling you over because your mufflers too loud. I go, it's, it's a factory muffler. Right. Like, it's, I have an M3 from 2005. It's a, a dinin and it comes with a dinin muffler. You know what an E46 is? E46 M3? Not really. There's a sweet spot in the do you know anything about BMW's used evidence? Would you have a five five series? Yeah, beautiful car. Yeah, great car that year that you had was 2002 2004 something like same year as the E46 is the a lot of people think it's the goaly locks Zone of BMW's because it's before BMW became this really cushy like luxury car and was more of a driver-focused car. And the year that I have is 2005. I actually got it from a guy who contacted Jamie, who we were talking about E46, and he's like, I got one that only has 15,000 original miles. It's a silver E43. It's beautiful. It's like a classic looking car. Um, but it has a, it's not that loud. So this cop was just looking for shit to fuck with people by. And if I was, and just some asshole, or maybe a young black guy, I might be getting a ticket. I might be in trouble. Like he just decided to pull me over for nothing. I wasn't speeding at all. I just took a right out of the comedy store parking lot and all sudden the lights were on, like immediately I pulled over and he pulls over. And I go, uh, what did I do? And he goes, uh, seems like you got an aftermarket, uh, muffler in your car. I go, hey, man. I go, how are you doing? And he goes, hey, what's up? And I go, I don't have an aftermarket muffler. I go, it's a dyno. This is the way it comes from the factory. Yeah. And he goes, what's seen pretty loud? He goes, we rev it for him and I go. Okay. So I give a little boom, boom. And he's like, yeah, that might be too loud. You might want to get that checked. I go, okay. What do I do now? And he's like, nothing. You're all right. I go, okay. And he goes, I'm not really trying to pull people over for this. You know, we're, we're looking for bad guys and drunk dry. I was like, oh, I understand. That's okay. And I'm like, all right, that was a, that was a fame privilege moment. Right. And a white privilege moment. I was driving away from that, no. And like, if I was just to, 25 year old kid white black whatever. I was probably gonna take it for a loud muffler. It wasn't even loud. It was just a cop looking to fill. He had like you probably have like This is controversial because some cops say it's not true and I've talked to cops to say it is true. Like they have a number of tickets that they have to write in a week or a month or whatever and they get in trouble if they don't write enough shit. And so this guy was like, well, that doesn't seem that soft. Let me pull this dude over. Just no reason. Yeah. Just that was it. I mean, I was he was going left. I was going right. He did a U-turn and pulled me over. It was instantaneous. Yeah.

or no, no, it was a point out that you drive a Corvette. Yeah, he probably were doing 45.

I think you have a tack you fucking lutite. You didn't even know what you have. Oh my god. What are you talking about? I got the engine. No, it's a tack commenter. It shows you how many revolutions per minute your engines go when you fucking dummy. I know what an RV has.

What are you talking about? It's standard. This is what you have. You have a spedometer and a tack commenter. They're right next to each other on every single car that's a performance car.

There's a regular one.

You don't know what the fuck part of it.

Oh, yeah. First of all, that one you're looking at is a fucking tack.

Yeah. Yeah. No, on the left is a speedometer. That one in the middle is a tack. Yeah. That's a tackometer. Yeah. And in the tackometer, then it has miles per hour in the center of the tack. Right. So the tack will show you when you hit red line. If you're using your paddle shifters. So most of the time, a lot like you, I'm sure you put it in drive, like a fucking door. You don't even use those paddles.

Yeah. It's all you care about, right?

You don't even, you don't need a clutch. You don't need any of it. You don't need a shift. Have you shifted for yourself over? Yeah, it's a front man. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. One last time you did it. In that car, I don't know. No, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, a real shift. Left foot clutch. Yeah, you used to have right hand.

Yeah. What do you like? What do you rent? What's the last time you rent to the stick shift?

They do, but you have to, I really ask for it. I feel like I, most of the time they drive auto manics. Like there's stickers of people put on cars that say anti theft deterrent and it just shows a manual transmission, because most people just don't know how to drive a manual.

I like it. That's really what it is. Fun enough stuff to do. They're on their way out. Manuals? Yeah, unfortunately. You know, these to have manuals on motorcycles where it was an actual stick shift, the really old ones. Yeah, Josh Serlin, he's the owner of Black Bear Brand. They're a real cool clothing company. They built me this really dope leather jacket man. It's really cool. He makes like really interesting handmade stuff like clothing and and shit and he's into like craftsmanship and old stuff and he has a motorcycle. I think it's like if you go to his Instagram Black Bear Brand, he drives this really old motorcycle. There's Brad Pitt doing it. I think they call it a suicide shifter because you have to reach down and imagine Brad Pitt, beautiful Zia's, no helmet just driving around. See it in the upper right hand corner, that picture, that's what it's like. So you shift. like a clutch like your press and shifted by hand just go to black bear brand on Instagram because he does it he's got videos of him driving through tunnels it looks so badass and he said like I talked to him about it and he was like it's the most alive I ever feel he goes the tank only lasts for like 20 miles like it's this little ass tank and this engine just eats gas it's so inefficient because it's really old bike but he's just And shifting with one arm on the handlebar and shifting like this, but there's something about there he is. Look at this. Gosh. So he's driving this thing and then when he shifts, see that thing, over by his dick, that's his shifter. Look at that. See, he has to reach down to shift gears. Weird, right?

First time I ever saw that was a drug dealer in Phoenix. I met this drug dealer when we were at the improv team. Yeah, that's what it's about, right? Yeah, and he's like, hey, man, you can hang out with us. I was like, hmm.

I didn't avoid it. Yeah, because he just seemed like trouble. It was a little too enthusiastic about hanging. It was a little Coke, cocaine enthusiastic.

Yeah. Well, Tempe is college town. Yeah. And it's surrounded by like that Scottsdale area, which is notoriously, um, it's an upper town. But that's the place where I think Tyson got arrested there for Coke. It's a lot of Coke. Like, I didn't, you know, I'm ignorant Coke. I've never done it. Me too. Never not once. But I was with Red Band who's done it a lot. And Red Band and I were in a club and he goes, you know, everyone's on coke. I go, what? He goes, look around. Everyone's talking real loud to each other and they're all touching their nose. And it was almost like, I couldn't unsee it anymore. I was like, oh my god, he's like, dude, everyone's on coke here. Yeah. I go, wow, really? He was a, yeah, they're on coke. Yeah. Makes sense, though. Yeah. Looks, that's got still area, a lot of rich folk. A lot of people like to party.

Have you ever had a desire to try it? Just see what the fuss is all about?

I remember one time I got a hold of the old school in Nyquil. This is like in the 90s I was sick and I got a hold of old school in Nyquil and I took it and I was lying in bed and I was just like I was like melted into my pillow. Just drift away, just be comforted. I felt like you're in the womb. Yeah. Like everything's gonna be okay, Tony. Everything's gonna be okay. You're gonna get a big warm hug by the world. That's it.

The argument for people that don't have anything going on in their life, like, why should I not do that? Right. You know?

Yeah. Well, I think a lot of people if you don't have a good enough Like a discipline, a thing you're into that requires work that you really get joy out of. If you don't have that, and then you find the drug early, before you've had the good feeling of accomplishment, that drug feeling could take you over. And then it's really hard to like sacrifice. It's really hard to do embrace discomfort when you're really into that coding feeling. Just drift away all your worries go away Tony. Yeah, that's the big problem with people with opioid addictions You know if you don't have something better than that a lot of people like why should I abandon that? I know. And it's a tough argument because what's your argument for that? What do you say? Hey, you should suffer in a factory. You should work your way up to a mediocre existence of debt and struggle and hate your job every day and stay clean.

What do you do? What do you tell them? That's the, that's the number one problem. I think people have when they don't have a lot going for them and they also get into drugs. How do we, how do you fix that?

Dude, steroids are illegal in Oregon. Whoa. Legal, rather.

Who's Dorian Yates? How dare you? Oh, no. Oh, dare you. Dorian Yates, one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time. You know who Lee Hane is? No, son of a bitch.

Clearly. Yeah. Uh, Ronnie Coleman, Ohio. Ronnie Coleman was a, you know, Mark Coleman. Oh, I am thinking of Mark. Son of a bitch. That's a white guy. Ronnie Coleman's like, where the greatest bodybuilders were all time. He was so big. He doesn't even seem real. Look at Ronnie Coleman.

He did the podcast recently and his look how big he was dude.

Oh, yeah, he wouldn't even notice it. Yeah. He he's had every single disk in his back fused except like one or two I think. It's a bunch of back surgeries. His back is all fucked up from just lifting in immense amounts of weight and pushing himself. Like to be that big and that strong, like you have to have a crazy work ethic. Look at his back. Go to that upper right hand corner picture. Look at that. What the fuck? That's alien. God. That's so crazy. Look at his butt cheeks. Jesus. Jesus.

Yeah, so that's what you can look like if you moved to Oregon. Start lift and there's Dorian. Look at Dorian. Dorian's also been on the podcast. He's a normal size guy now, but back then when he was the champ, go to that one in the middle right there. Bam. Look at that duck. Fucking. Come on, son. That's the size of him.

Brown in my head. Look at the size. He was for his day, like extraordinarily massive. And that was like, he sort of was one of the group of the next level of bodybuilders that took mass to a new level. And he talked about it on the podcast. He said he basically lived like a monk. Like all he did is eat and train. Like he was just obsessed with being the best.

That's a lot of it, but it was just the results. He was addicted to standing on that stage going bam, and everybody bought a holy shit. He wanted just unveil. That's like people have a narrow mind and perspective of what art is. You know, and I think bodybuilding isn't art, but I think it's an art that only people who participate in it truly appreciate. These are a lot of arts like that. I think pools aren't like that. Like when I watch a guy like I was saying, Ephraim Reyes, when I watch him play, you watch that guy play like, wow, the way he gets out. It's beautiful. But only people really understand pool know how difficult the shots are or how he changes the angle with English. And I think bodybuilding when you see a guy like Dorian Yates or like Lehani or like Ronnie Coleman when they get to that peak form when they're on that stage like only a person who really knows how difficult it is to be that massive and that shredded and to be standing there with veins on your feet all the way up to your calves your thighs and your fucking all the way up to your neck and your head like that's massive crazy dedication it's steroids and dehydration and there's so much involved in reaching that peak form when you get on stage like they're really unhealthy when they get on stage like that moment when they're shredded they're super dehydrated yeah they cut all the water yeah yikes It's a big yikes. It's a crazy way to live. But for them, because they understand the dedication involved, like people that are really into that man, it's like a tight-knit community. People that are really into like looking shredded and vascular and what it means to be that guy, you know?

Well, but for your thing is killing, killing on stage. Like, I was talking to, well, I've talked to a bunch of comics about this, but I think recently I was talking to Sagar about it. Well, like, you imagine living your whole life and never killing. Never knowing what it's like to just, just crush. Thank you, good night, you know, to lay down a Netflix special, you know, and have people watch it all around the country.

And now it's hard to want it tonight. That weekend that we did in Houston, man. So the last time I did, that was July. Really? August September, October, November. Those four months ago. And that was only one weekend.

You and me in one white. Who else is on the show?

You can't call me young, Tony Cassius. There's one young. Huh? Young Jamie. Oh. I don't know.

No, sick for a day. Son of a bitch. Why don't you beat it? He beat it. Why beat it? Oh, okay. He beat it because he's young Jamie. Yeah. People get mad because he's got great hair now and I still call him young.

Why don't you go? Why don't you get cornrows? I've had it once cornrows. Yeah, I need to see that picture.

I'll give you a raise if you get cornrows

I just, well, you can trouble if you wear corn rows. Will that be cultural appropriation of the, have they let that go?

It's for white girls. It's a real issue. But for a guy, it might be a growth. I would, it hurt. Oh, I would imagine. It's a very tight. You're right. A favorite got that when he fought because you, you're right at the California kid. He's got some long hair. Yeah. We get some corn rows.

Wait, would you have any recordings?

Well, we're going to end the show. No, no, no, no, no. That's why it's good. Come on. Let me make fun of you.

It's not. We should put it on YouTube. We should put it on the Jerry channel.

Maybe talk about bringing that back now that we're in the center of live entertainment. This is the place I have. Have you really thought about coming back?

What kind of music?

You're playing metal. Uh-huh.

Yes, dude. He's really good. I've got into a bunch of his shit. Uh-huh.

He's very good. He's very good. And very unique.

How much good music came out of Seattle? And that is a crazy part of the world. A lot of despair and rainy days. Yeah. Motherfucker is going inside like how much good music comes out of Miami?

Yeah, honey honey came out of a lot of people come out of Cleveland. Yeah. Those places that really suck those people have a lot of pride. It's weird. People who like live in places that are awesome, they don't give a fuck about those spots. But people that like fucking hang in there and Pittsburgh, we're going to fucking hang in here. Yeah. Pittsburgh or death. You know, there was a dude who came to my Cleveland show at a t-shirt on. It's a Cleveland or death. And I put him on my Instagram. I was like, that shirt needs to be seen. That was what it said, right?

People from Youngstown dream of moving to Cleveland.

Well, this is fucking winter's man. Yeah. That's what I'm talking with Joey Diaz about Joe Rogan. It's fucking winter's gonna be a cold when I could feel it. There's always a place for you in Texas.

We're playing games. We're playing games. I'm eventually gonna get him out here. He's gonna take some time.

Let me know when you open up that club. You'll be there day one. The flood gates will open. I'm gonna put out the bat signal. Yeah. Because I don't think the comedy store is going to open up and I don't think the clubs in New York are going to open up. I think it's going to be a while. But we have rapid testing here. We do it at the studio. I think if I hired, this is my thought. If we have a parking lot and then that parking lot, you have a team of 10 nurses and you tell everybody to come an hour before the show. The shows at eight get here by seven. You get tested. You just have a name. Everybody wears a mask. It's a quick nose swab. It's not hard. You do a quick test. Everybody goes inside when you're when you clear and when you're not clear, they get you to fuck out of there. Yeah. But I bet most people would be clear. Yeah. And you maybe catch a few here there that didn't know they'd have it. Right. If you have it, if you think you don't feel good, please don't come or get tested at this resource and come on down. And then You have people, they get tested, they go inside, and then they can have a drink and wait for the show to start. Show starts at eight or eight thirty, give people plenty of time. Yeah.

Right. Yeah. So if you could have 10 nurses, I mean, you've, you've got your test today. It literally takes five seconds to administer the test. Yeah. Well, 10 seconds. Right. It's 10 seconds of swabbing you nose. So they swab your nose, they do the test. It takes 15 minutes to get the results. But you could do that if you have a name and a number, like number 79. That's me. You're clear. All right, good. You got you. Take it. Maybe you have a QR code or something like that. They scan it at the door. It's not hard to imagine that you could do a real show out here. A real show, like 300 people packed. I can place the size of the common store main room, 350, 400 people. You could do that here. It's not, like, because there's a disease, doesn't mean there's not a work around where everybody can still be safe and still be like we're doing right now. Everyone in this room has been tested. We're okay. So then we can just sit across from each other and have fun and not even think about it. That could be done in a comedy club. It can be done. Is it easy to do right now? No, it's a little complicated. It's a little expensive, but is it better than not doing it? Yeah. Especially if you're a fan of comedy. If you know that you can just get tested and then you can go perform in front of a real crowd like packed like the old days where everybody's clean.

We were having too much fun, but this is the wake-up call. It's a little reminder that you and I and Diaz and Ari and Duncan and some of the others, we live through the golden years of the Comedy Store. It was the golden years. And almost like poetically it ended at the peak. It was sold out every night, every night, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Multiple shows at night, main room, OR, I remember going in there on a Tuesday night, there was two shows sold out in the main room. The show in the O-R was completely mocked. They were doing two shows in the O-R. Remember that? Yeah. They started doing an early show in the LH show, because there was so many people. Yeah. You had to rotate the crowd. Belly room is packed. Packed?

Yeah. And people were flying in from all around the world. It was literally the golden age of comedy. And now tell me what you were telling me, but LA, how fucked up they are. They won't even let people. You're doing a show with no audience in the main room. We're streaming it to people in the parking lot and they won't let you do it.

Yeah, they sent out a newsletter. Yep. I was like, oh shit. They're gonna do shows in the parking lot. Yep, and then the city of LA shut it down.

Do you think that's political?

How does that make sense if you can go eat at Boa? And that's outside. Right. How does that make sense?

And then the common store was also proposing a big shield, a plexiglass shield between the audience and this in the standout. And they're still like, nope.

Doesn't make any sense. What I talked to Dave Smith about yesterday, we're like these governors and these mayors. They also may have power. It's very difficult with that power, Joe. It's not, it's not nice. And they keep getting paid. What should happen is their income should be based entirely on the income of the city or the state. So when the income of the city in the state is drastically reduced, the salary of the governor and the salary of the mayor should be radically reduced as well. It's brilliant. And then you would see how quickly these motherfuckers would open things up. Yeah. 100%. And on that note, fuck faces. That's it. That's it. Um, where you had tonight? Well, people will find out tomorrow.

Is this you? Where are you at? Is that you right there? Play this shit. I don't even know what to do. Come on. Play it. Play it. Play it. We'll leave with this.

Oh, stop it. Give me some volume.

Each shit, coming to sixth dream. Okay, stop. Turn it back on. We're gonna close out with this. Chase your dreams bitches.

Someone else. Yeah, another incredible local talent. All right.

Well, that's it. Dallas this weekend. Come, get some Tony. Goal to pony. You're moving here, right?

First moving here. Red bin already about a house, you know that. Yeah, crazy. Come on, bitch. Crazy. Come on.

You can January. Okay. January is when I'm opening up. Okay. I want to wait until the new once Biden gets an office. I want to see what they do. I'm worried about lockdowns. I'm worried about nationwide mandates and weirdness. Yeah. I'm hoping that they recognize that there's a way to do things and open things up and also they recognize that people have to go to work. You can't just keep everybody shut down. A lot of waitresses and a lot of waiters and bartenders that got fucked over during this shit. I want to let's bring them back. I'll get everybody back to work. Bring back some comedy. Yeah. Taxes.

I just decided. Each shit coming to 6th Street. We're gonna have to get some new band members. Looks like they are there.

That guy's screaming. Yes. He's got one guy sounds like tool. The other guy sounds like mega does the goal. That's the goal. He figured it out. It's a fusion. You knew us back then. Oh, good night, everybody. Good luck, Godspeed. Let's keep it together, bitches. Whoo!

If you want to be more confident, you have to start taking care of yourself.
