Do you need to ride?
Speaker 1Do you need to ride?
Speaker 3Do you need to ride?
Do your need you ride?
Speaker 1Ride with Karen and Chris?
Welcome to Do you need a ride?
This is Chris.
Speaker 3Fairbanks and this is Karen till Gareth.
Speaker 4We are just it's like a standoff with the entrance to the Hollywood Burbank Airport.
Speaker 1Yes, it's so easy to get in out in and I kind of want you to just drop me off.
Speaker 3Do you want me?
Do you want to just take a Southwest flight.
Speaker 1Somewhere for old time sake?
You know why?
Speaker 3Because nothing beats a jet to holiday.
Speaker 4I'm going on two jets tomorrow to go where, not on holiday, but this I'm made nervous by this.
Speaker 1How faster you dumb?
You know?
Actually it's the fault doing good.
Speaker 4Oh and then they honked because we pointed, Yeah, everyone wants coming.
Speaker 3I want it.
Speaker 1I would love it.
At Day and Age.
Speaker 4I'm flying to Portland practicing six songs I can sing, and six songs I have to use the Justin Bieber filter on on my new voicebox machine.
Speaker 1And then we have shows.
Yes, skate camp.
Speaker 4All these skate camps are converging now going to be like three hundred people, and so I'm getting nervous.
Speaker 3And excited, both very similar feelings.
Yes, I'm getting interchangeable feelings.
Speaker 4But I learned for some of the songs where it's more mumbly and not a great recording, I am going to sing those into my more sensitive podcast microphone.
And then the ones where I'm screaming I have so I'm going to switch out the mics like a Van Halen Roadie Wow, and have two mics.
Speaker 1It solved so many of my worries.
Can I make a pitch?
Please?
Please pitch?
Okay?
Speaker 3This is a Jeff Martyr based pitch.
Remember him as a stand up comic.
He used to do both sides of your brain and he would go over here to the left mic, and he would say this idea that was left brain, and then he would go over here and say a right brained idea, and he just walked back and forth between those two mics.
I would recommend, as a person who has seen a little bit of the world, that you do not switch out the chord and two mics.
That you get two chords and you have two standing micros.
Speaker 4I am bringing five chords.
Oh, I am going back.
Speaker 3And scared that you were doing this.
You went like that, and I thought you were going.
Speaker 4To be I without looking at a YouTube video, everyone in here on aalis you'd be proud.
I'm using the Zoom six recorder as a soundboard.
Speaker 1Incredible.
Speaker 4All the all the my little singing filter goes into that.
It all comes out of the Zoom six.
And I got chords for that.
So I'm using that, okay, because of the knobs.
Speaker 1Are very useful.
Yes, so I have so much control.
Great, I have all the little subtle filters.
Speaker 3I just think you're not only bringing one chord and switching to the actual mic.
You're gonna plug two mics in right.
Speaker 4Actually, yes, that will take some That will take some finessing because there is only one mic cord that goes into the.
Speaker 1Machine, but there's four.
Speaker 4A win I use this filter machine.
So maybe I will have a regular mic cooked up traditionally I'll yell sing into that the other one.
Yeah, I'm using my gimmicky filters, my reverb and my share like auto tunes will go through the voice box, and that that will be.
They'll already be set up.
Two mics.
Speaker 3Great, thank god, that's all I need to hear, and.
Speaker 1I'll be a lot like this murder you speak.
Speaker 3Of Jeff Marterr, one of the great comics of our time.
Speaker 4Jeffrey Martin lit himself of fire like Joan of Arc the Martyr.
We all, yes, yes, I really have to ruin that one.
To get there, I will have one side left brain songs, one side right, bring songs.
Speaker 3I want to say another joke that I think is jeff Martyr, but I could be wrong.
Speaker 1Can I do that?
Yes?
Speaker 3He said, I like to go shopping, and when I bring all my groceries and put them on the conveyor belt, I have my groceries first, and then I like to put a package of toilet paper, and after she after the woman wrings up my groceries.
I like to go is three points to the toilet paper?
Is this enough for this isn't that the best fucking joke about I saw it when I was like ten, and I got this weird feeling where I'm like, that's it's simplicity, it's relatability, but it's also I can't believe you just said that.
Speaker 1So you don't know, Jeff Marder.
You just saw them on the A List or something, yes.
Speaker 3Exactly, okay, or evening at the Improv nineteen eighty one version.
Speaker 1I didn't know these jokes are from then there.
It's old.
That's amazing.
Speaker 3I'm pretty sure I saw.
But here's the thing, I could absolutely be attributing an amazing joke that to Jeff Marder when it wasn't his joke, but he had that same you know, that kind of slick blonde dude from the early eighties that did stand up and everyone it's like a who would be the best?
Well it's kind of like cousin Joey when but not that goofy.
You know, a good looking blonde guy would get up with like a blazer and jeans and he'd be like, here's what you think is funny?
Now?
Speaker 1Right?
Right?
Speaker 3Right?
Speaker 1Yeah?
Speaker 4And I want to look for it because I was a kid and yeah, it was a nice blazer.
Speaker 3Great, great, kind of a lot of wool, a lot of elbow patches.
Speaker 1Yeah, there's a lot of bad art.
Speaker 4I'm like, let's hear this guy out just because of some shoulder pads.
Speaker 3Yeah, it was very effective, a nice part right down the center and feathered on the side.
Speaker 1Yeah, there is, you can see.
Speaker 4I did the Comedy and Magic Club and a lot of those comics are still around, Yes, and you do shows with them and it's like, who's this sweet older fellow and then they're on stage and I recognized their joke yet in television from my childhood.
Speaker 3Yep, that's like a Jake Joe Hansson vibe of like Jake Johnson should be.
If it was a meritocracy and it was talent based, Jake Johnson would be the most famous person on the planet.
Speaker 4Right when I first started doing stand up, and I had Montana Pell's drive all the way down to Texas when I lived there, and they Jake Johnson was performing at the Mad Dog Theater.
None of my friends, as far as I knew, I had any interest in stand up, but we all watched MTV and the half hour Comedy Hour with Mario Joyner.
They all knew his material.
Yeah, they all of my friends were like, oh, this guy's the best I have.
Speaker 1Where's he been?
And that was twenty five years ago.
Yeah, you know, like he Yeah, we should have him back on.
Speaker 3We should absolutely analist please.
Jake Johnson a few.
Speaker 4He when Memory got in the car we picked him up, that these were the airport days.
Speaker 1Oh shit, we forgot to drop me off at the airport.
Speaker 3That's okay, And he had that whole well, I don't get to go to the airport.
Speaker 1I'm just saying, it's so easy.
You're in, you're out.
It's fine.
I'll do it tomorrow.
Speaker 3For different, it's different now.
Speaker 1Yeah, it actually it is.
It's gotten a crowded.
Speaker 4I think word is out that it's easy to get to, so now it isn't easy.
Speaker 3Everyone's like, I gotta go.
Speaker 4Jake had some bit about I I'll go home so my wife can chase me around the house with that rolling pin.
Speaker 1He just went for some weird andy cap.
Speaker 4Like I knew what he was talking about, and it made me laugh so hard because it was the most random thing ever.
Speaker 1Yes, everything he was talking about, Remember how much we laughed.
Speaker 3We laughed and giggled.
And also it was like it felt like our best friend from high school that we hadn't seen in thirty years.
So I was like, why are you always not on this show?
Speaker 1Like why are you?
Speaker 3Why aren't you in my life?
Why aren't you my neighbor?
Yeah, Also it makes me think of a joke.
The first time I saw him was on Letterman and he did that bit about guns don't kill people, it's those damn bullets and then he goes, can you imagine if you just took bullets to a convenience store and tried to hold it up and you're like, I will push this into your head.
Right, But he had that whole bit about people trying to parse words about gun control, which.
Speaker 4Was just revamped and made famous by Chris Rock special about the what if we made bullets expensive?
He just said provided and yeah, that's the famous one.
No one Jake Johnson should get credit.
He will right now for Chris Rock's whole career.
Speaker 1What what?
Speaker 4So sometimes I confidently say things that don't make sense.
Speaker 1And that can get you sued.
I will get sued.
I didn't know we had that mad listeners.
This is great news.
Speaker 3We don't have that many listeners, but Chris Rock is the main listener, right right, got.
Speaker 1Shit, you're a lot of pressure.
Yeah.
Speaker 3I told you about the time he was on the Ellen Degeneral Show when I was the writer and we wanted him to do a cold open, and so we just wrote this kind of dumb little sketch for him and Ellen to do, and then they were supposed to be doing it and I was in the control room and people are like, Ellen need you, and so I grab my shit up and run down to her dressing room and she had opened the door and been like, Karen, is Karen here?
Speaker 1And so then I told you this, right, No, I don't know.
This is all new to me.
Speaker 3She so she was like, we need't careen or whatever.
And then he I walk in and he's Chris Rock is going Karen, Karen, Karen.
We can't do anything without Karen, Karen this and Karen that.
But it was he was like he was doing a bit with about me right, And it was one of the most like I couldn't get the smile off my face.
Speaker 1But also it was so overwhelming.
Speaker 3Mars like usually I come in here and like whisper three, He's going to hear and run away and this.
It was like he was like, oh, come and take your place care.
Speaker 4Yeah, but he's also giving you credit.
He's defending you with that sarcasm.
Speaker 3He was basically like putting a little It was nuts and so charming.
I was like the most charming experience.
So I'm just like, well, I permanently love this man.
I already thought he was the funniest.
Speaker 4But yeah, I oh man, I'm that is that's great to hear he used his powers for good, just like justin Timberlake, when we tried to pitch him dancing in a in a big gingerbread man costume, and Ellen was really afraid to ask.
Speaker 3It's such a big ask, like being this thing, it's feeling like you're all sweaty and you probably won't enjoy yourself.
And so she kind of didn't want to ask because she was like his number one fan.
And so we brought in this sketch to be like, well, here's how we're going to do it, and we'll do this reveal and you come out and do this thing, and basically we're revealing that all along the gingerbread Man, who had in real life been a pay week that we did these gift giveaways we're going to really reveal at the end.
Oh, the gingerbread man is actually justin Timberlake the whole time.
And he but as she was trying to pitch to him, she kind of like lost she lost faith that she should be doing it.
Yeah, and then so she's like, but we don't have to do that, we could do something else.
And then and I was sitting there like, no, we can't, we don't have anything else, like this is the whole plan.
And then he goes no, no, no, hold on and got all into it and like fought for it.
Speaker 1It was crazy.
Speaker 3I was like, this is the most generous thing you could fucking be doing right.
Speaker 1Now, right, It's won a nice surprise.
Speaker 4And these people all, you know, there's other stories that you're not supposed to like them.
Speaker 1It's so hard to.
Speaker 4Keep track, but you know, we're all supposed to collectively not enjoy Fred Durst from Limp Biscuit.
So I was doing a red carpet thing and Fred Durst from Limp Biscuit, Yes, was.
Speaker 1One of the carp at people.
Speaker 4And I was like, ah, and his hat was crooked and he was you know, it was like early two thousands or mid to mid odds, okay, and he I had this.
Speaker 1Thing that my boss made me do.
Speaker 4We're like, oh, I want to get in there for the Tony Hawk's stand up for skate Parks thing.
I have jokes about skateboarding.
Will you tell some Like I didn't even write these jokes.
I just said sure, And it was proving to be kind of humiliating.
Speaker 1Vince Vaughn was really mean to me.
Everyone was mean to me.
Speaker 4Jamie Lee Curtis was the sweetest human in the worlds and ran in bought a hat because I was getting sunburnt, and she put it on my head.
I'll never forget it.
And then the next year she signed it.
It's like, you might not remember, but this hat.
She's like, of course I remember, and she signed it SPF thirty five or greater always and wrote it on the hat.
Speaker 1And of course I lost the hat.
But I had these.
Speaker 4Jokes and I was like, hey, these will you do this thing where you tell these jokes?
Speaker 1He's like, like pretending to be a comedian.
Speaker 4Yeah, yeah, do you mind if I take the jokes for a minute and go memorize them so I'm not looking at a piece of paper and then he stepped off the carpet all these ignoring all the press, yes, reading these jokes, and I saw him like practicing them, and like like everyone thought he was going crazy because he's gone.
Then he came and he at them all memorized and he's hey, folks, and he did these like cheesy play on word jokes about skateboarding and nailed it.
And I will forever love yes Fred Durst from Biscuit, you know, because it.
Speaker 3Means that he is a caring, empathetic human who understands what it feels like to be in the business really doing your best on camera and like not.
I'm sure he's had terrible experiences in that exact same pace.
Speaker 4He's had days where he wakes up and he's like, all I want to do is break stuff.
Speaker 3All I want to do is chocolate starfish and the hot dog.
Speaker 4The hot dog flavored water, the chocolate starfish and the hot dog flavored water.
Speaker 1Oh innuendo cho the chocolate starfish.
Speaker 3When that happened and that album came out, and that's what people were talking about.
First of all, I was on a great deal of speed slash diet pills, so everything was a little more extra than it needed to right right, But I was like, we're done, Like this is the dumbest ship and the people that do it are dumb.
That was also the advent of kid rock.
All of a sudden, you just had all these weird pseudo rock White Wrap Nightmare, fucking Yeah, Nu Metal.
Speaker 1And you Metal and metal ad time.
Speaker 3Yeah?
Was there was there an umlat over the ut Metal.
Speaker 4I think that the reason that bothered me so much is because I know what spawned it, and that specifically is the Judgment Night soundtrack where they had Slayer with iced Tea, sound Garden and.
Speaker 1I forget who else, but they're Aerosmith and run.
Speaker 4Yes, and also like del the funky Homo Sapien with Sonic Youth, Like it was my confused kid brain where it's like I like this hip hop, but I also like this alternative rock.
Speaker 1Where will they ever converge?
Speaker 4Cut to a weird movie with Dennis Leary and Jeremy Piven about something I don't remember what was it called.
Speaker 1It was called Judgment and the soundtrack was.
Speaker 4Made for me because I was like, I love this hip hop and I love all these bands.
Speaker 1I wonder if that was a music director.
Speaker 3I don't know what that job would be, sound engineer or a music director for that movie that was so good, that's like it was an early I've done this with where I'm like, I love David Fincher movies.
I also love the George Michael video Freedom or whatever, and then it's like and then you find out that was directed by Daviditch.
Speaker 4I would put money on the fact that this was a music director that made that on At.
Speaker 3Least do you want to first of all, let me get a financial number.
Sure, you will put money on it.
It's going to be thirty dollars.
Oh, I'm sorry, which video again?
Speaker 1Twenty I'll do twenty, okay, twenty dollars.
Speaker 4Yeah, but yeah, wait, do you want it to be a muse?
Speaker 1We both want the same thing.
Yes, we will each give each other twenty dollars swim or right.
Speaker 3This is a bet where we agree with each other.
Yeah, but the energy is very hostile.
Speaker 1Right, Okay, I person, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 5I got caught up in the spelling of new Metal when I was googling it and I missed what you were saying.
Speaker 1Oh no, no, it is sorry.
Speaker 3No.
Speaker 1The director of Judgment Night their background.
Speaker 3Music director the because we want to know who put the soundtrack together?
Oh, soundtrack?
No, no, no, or what's the difference between a soundtrack and a musical score?
Soundtrack is what we're looking for about other people's songs.
Speaker 1But I thought we were deciding on top of that the actual film was directed by a music video director.
Speaker 3No, I was saying that.
Sorry, I was comparing it to that.
But what I was saying is I bet you this.
If it's a music is it the job that you would have being the music director or whatever on a movie.
You're picking this soundtrack songs?
Speaker 4Oh sure, supervisor, Yes, yes, there it is supervisor.
Speaker 3We're learning that's what a music supervisor.
Speaker 4I was music HR on Judgment Night.
Supervisor just sounds.
Speaker 3Very I was music Craft Services.
Speaker 4Yes, I was music foreman and a lot of people gotten a big forkliph as Judgment.
Speaker 5Nights soundtrack once Acond I have to get this, fucking let it be Mark Ronson It was okay.
The executive producer, Happy Walter is the twenty two year old manager of Cypress Hill in a House of pain.
Speaker 1We knew it.
Fuck yeah, we owe each other twenty dollars.
Speaker 3Can you I want mine?
Now in cash, do you can you tell us what Happy Johnson did after that job?
Did he go on to do other things that we also are fantasy?
Speaker 4He went on to be a non traditional professional golfer that happy Gilmark, thank you.
Speaker 1It's the only other happy.
So I had to make it.
It was good.
Speaker 3I'm fast.
Speaker 1Yeah, it doesn't have to be good if it's fast, and that's right by the.
Speaker 4Director of the film.
I'm guessing who knows.
The point is what a terrible time for music.
Speaker 3And but then like somebody inventing in new approach to that kind of music that really was good and it was like mainstreaming rap and mainbow.
In the beginning, rap was like, oh who does this?
And everybody it's all so dangerous and it was that weird kind of like racist thing about rap.
Or it was like this guy's like no, no, no, your favorite white band Aerosmith is super into run DMC too, right right, it all fits everywhere.
Speaker 4That was really cool.
That was maybe a ground zero for all this.
Speaker 5Okay, this may need to be an MFM crossover because I found an LA Times article dated August thirtieth, nineteen ninety five that says police investigate forty eight hour disappearance of rap figure and it's Happy Happy Walters, who was reported missing last week and found in Long Beach after a forty eight hour search.
Walters, who manages the rap band Cypress Hill and owns Immortal Records, was found Saturday at the Long Beach Courtyard Marriotte Hotel after police officer recognized his photograph on a television news.
Speaker 1Broad Wait a second, he's found dead.
Speaker 3He was just trying to have an affair.
He was found alive, right, he.
Speaker 1Was found alive at a motel for a hotel.
Speaker 3Okay, happy, Look, this is a successful person who started a new genre of music.
He's going to want to have an affair.
Yeah, yeah, don't be crazy.
Speaker 4No, you gotta look.
Just a name change isn't going to actually make you happy.
You have to have an affair.
Speaker 3Yes, that's where it's scaling someone's wife or husband.
Speaker 1Yes, what's going to do?
That's what you get out of it.
Speaker 3Do we know what he just he went crazy in Long Beach for two days.
Speaker 1I unfortunately it's beyond a paywalls.
Speaker 3Yes, yes, but take my twenty dollars I one off.

Speaker 3Is this the guy that like remember in the NWA like made for TV movie there was like I think it was like Paul Giamadi in a sweatsuit, getting all that, like the Compton rap scene, getting it all on, getting it all together, but then kind of ripping them off.
Speaker 4At the same time, I did a poster for a film that my friend Garrett Laura Kitling or his husband Garrett.
Yeah, he was working on this documentary about Bob Dylan and the fact that he was a fan of rap and he would use his let rappers use his recording studio.
Speaker 1And there's a.
Speaker 4List of hip hop artists that recorded in Bob Dylan's studio in la I'm not sure what city.
Speaker 1I didn't see it.
I just drew the poster, and the.
Speaker 4Poster was like all these classic hip hop icons and just Bob Dylan in there, or as my aunt would say, Bob Dylan, there's happy right there.
Speaker 1What.
Yeah, he's got a bite.
Speaker 4Mark from some working girl right under his eye.
Speaker 3That is it, Listener, we're looking at a white man.
Speaker 1It looks like a CEO of a shoe company.
Yeah, yeah, for real, Yeah it's a But here's the hr guy from pain Lass.
Speaker 3But he had a great idea and a dream and he was he had the Far Side's phone number.
Speaker 4I really wanted him to look like Jerry seng Felt's uncle in the show or something.

Yes, relevant to the use of today.
Speaker 4Brutal and in the streets, the thing I drive and my Rolls roy Son.
Speaker 1People need to hear it.
Speaker 3They deserve to hear it, and they need to hear it.
Speaker 4Go ahead, hold this cane.

That could be you one day when you're limping.
Speaker 3And if you're if you don't make me enough money, I'll beat you over the head.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, don't forget.
I have an edge to me.
My name is Happy because the contrasts.
Speaker 3Happy is literally younger than us.
Speaker 4Yes, an old picture from the Ild Judgment night right days.
Speaker 1I can't remember even what that movie was about.
I just know I saw it.
Speaker 4In a movie theater and it was before Jeremy Piven was bald, like young Jeremy Piven.
Oh yeah yeah, and Stephendorf and all these people, and Dennis Leary was the bad guy and it was like a warehouse area.
Let's shoot this because there's no Cars at Night, no budget, but the soundtrack.
I listened to it NonStop for two years.
And then this new metal shit kid, I'm like, wait a minute, I know where this came from, and I feel responsible, but it's so bad and to you know, my parents or someone, it sounds like the same stuff, but.
Speaker 1It was wildly not the same.
Yeahs as Buyah Tribe with.
Speaker 4You know, Fulda, Funkyomos or you know.
I can't remember a lot.
Speaker 1Of the bands.
Speaker 4It's a Slayer with iced Tea, Biohazard.
Speaker 3And then the story was kind of that they're also friends.
Yeah, sure, Aerosmith hung out with froun DMC.
Speaker 1Sure at least for that day.
Yeah, they seem to respect each other.
Speaker 4I wonder if that song they're like, what have you crashed through the wall like that one day when I kicked a hole?
We were both recording and I got really mad Coke remember that.
Speaker 1Let's have that be the music video.
It's my apology.
Can I just say this for spitting on your adiitas.
Speaker 3Myditas aditas.
That wasn't singing, Jim, that was lightly rapping.
Speaker 1Yes, all day, I dream about six all day, all day.
I dreams.
Speaker 3I really love your bursts of anger, because I also have bursts of anger, but I never walk away or do something else or do some chin ups on a bar.
I'm just like, blah blah that you have yours and then you I always watch you kind of sideline yourself to go have your punch a wall moment.
Right, Yeah, you don't get mad mad.
It's just interesting to me because I think, did.
Speaker 1I do it?
What is this in reference to?
Speaker 3You're talking about punching through the wall?
Speaker 2Oh no, that.
Speaker 1I was in.
Yes, I've punched through walls.
Shind you.
I had dents in my locker.
Speaker 4I it was the hands off parenting, the helicopter parenting.
Speaker 3Different kinds of parent the walls of schools of parenting.
Speaker 1I was tugging.
Speaker 4Yes, I went to no parenting school.
But the most the point is neither did my parents.
Speaker 1Oh god, it got it.
Speaker 4There's just a doctor Spock book and you had to borrow it from a neighbor.
I was referencing in the Aerosmith.
Speaker 1Yeah video they punched through the wall.
Speaker 3I thought you were saying that you also once punched through a wall because on a record.
Speaker 4Oh no, no, I was just because I didn't alter my voice because you know I'm not that great a character work.
Speaker 3Yes, I just on the heels of happy Walters.
You're out of your mind.
Speaker 1Yet, well you're right happy.
Speaker 3I guess you can't perform like that and then tell people yeah.
Speaker 4Exactly, and then all of a sudden, I'm like, excuse me for say goodbye to me for a minute.
From now on, I'm Stephen Tyler in nineteen eighty nine.
Do it, Hi, I'm sorry, I punched a hole in the wall.
Speaker 1Rue it now.
Speaker 3It's all connected.
Speaker 4My big mouth is the reason I've spit upon your a details.
Speaker 3Okay, I get it all now.
I didn't get that at all, but I was.
I did think you were just kind of referencing being a hot head, and then it was just making me laugh because we both are, but in different ways.
Speaker 4It's so funny to me those crossovers, and even his daughter that.
Speaker 6He used to sexually eyes sexual eyes in his.
Speaker 3Videos, the girl from Lord of the Rings.
Speaker 1Yes, Live Tyler, Live Tyler.
Speaker 4My girlfriend went to high school Weather and she used to wear timberlands and hang out with all the hip hop kids.
And she almost got in a fight with her because she accidentally stepped on live Tyler's Timberland's and she said, you stuffed up my Timberlands.
Speaker 1And got in her face.
Speaker 4Holy, just like I'm am, I going to get in a fight with Stavid Tyler's daughter.
Speaker 3That's just Also, don't you have money for more Timberlands?
Speaker 1I know?
Or did she not?
Speaker 4It's just stories like that youth, Like if you hang out with people that grew up in New York City in the seventies and eighties and remember that, like we grew up near horses, even though I'm from Montana or from Petaloma, where I had that hole hanging out on a stoop and watching h you know, scenes from like movies like do the Right Thing or something happening in that's your childhood.
I feel like I wish I had some city life.
Speaker 3Hot lunch gems in the cafeteria right right.
Speaker 4I also appreciate that I just hung out in the field and played with a piece of wood and made jumps for my bike or whatever.
Speaker 1But man, I do love.
Speaker 4Those city stories and I could have been friends with Steven Tyler's daughters.
Speaker 1Don't look back.
Speaker 4But she was into hip hop as her dad's rocker.
So she's like, you know what, I'm going the other direction.
Speaker 3What I love is that when you said that I misunderstood you.
It was like I was having an implanted memory from what you were saying of like, oh, yeah, that that was a funny day when you did that.
But it was just you were just doing chin ups.
I was switching the ending.
Speaker 1It happened again.
I gotta change my voice.
Speaker 4I gott I'll alter my voice otherwise they're gonna seem.
Speaker 1Like I'm talking about myself.
Speaker 3But your girlfriend who went to high school with many famous people we are learning now, was that the Performing Arts High School in New York City.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's fucking major.
Yeah, it is a major.
Speaker 4It's and some of her friends were dancers, some were actors.
There was me I wish And it was a hard to get into, but a public school.
Speaker 1It wasn't a private.
Hey, you have to pay tuition.
Speaker 4You just had to audition to get into this school that I should know the name of right now, you should.
Speaker 3You also had to want fame, but fame costs, and right there was where you were going to start paying.
Speaker 1In sweat, I believe it is the school from fame.
Speaker 3Yes, it's the School of Performing Arts.
The fucking whatever whatever, school of performing art.
Speaker 4Yeah, I know it doesn't matter words are they that important?
Speaker 3But also that was like, so Fame was the first rated art movie I saw in a movie theater.
No, sorry, Little Darlings.
Was my cousin.
Speaker 1Charles knuck Us in Their Memories.
That's a great movie that I confused for my own.
Matt Dillon on a BMX bike.
Speaker 3Remember when he romance to you at camp that's summer.
Speaker 1Yes, and there was a hole in the wall.
Wait that was porky.
Speaker 3No, that's a yeah, that's a different one from nineteen seventy nine.
Uh, But Fame in the movie theater.
My friend Amy Levin and her dad and her dad's girlfriend took us to see Fame at the Plaza Theater in Pedaluma, which was an art house theater that would do the double features of like, you know this already movie from the seventies and that.
So we went to see Fame and literally the entire place was fucking packed, and people were like, the first card comes up and it just says Fame and then it goes to like the five six seven night and people whatever, and like the Fame card came up.
The entire crowd was like, yeah, like went crazy like it was a concert film, and then all this smoke went up in the air because people were fully just lighting joints and getting insane.
Speaker 1Really to watch this movie?
Yes, wow?
Speaker 3Then yes, it was a wild like hippie experience.
Speaker 1It was so cool.
That's so funny.
Speaker 4See that's something that maybe you had growing up that I think marijuana back then was considered the most illicit.
Maybe I'm being naive and there was older kids smoking it.
But if anyone was smoking weed when I was a kid, I thought.
Speaker 1They were going to get shot in the head.
Speaker 4By right, they're going to prison.
I'm going to get locked up just for being near them.
Yes, I was so paranoid about weed.
Speaker 3That was Nancy Reagan's America.
She wanted you to suffer like that.
Speaker 4Yeah, and then take the swear words out of music that was Yeah.
Speaker 1Turns out she was right.
Speaker 4Turns out she was the drummer in a garage like a Go Go's sounding band.
Someone had a tape, Now played it for me, and they were good.
She was a drummer in a band and they were good.
Well, the name Tipper Gore is so rock and roll.
The idea that she wasted it the way she did.
It's like that would that would be the coolest drummer's name of all time.
Speaker 1Right, they were a good band and that's why.
So which is Gazzi?
Speaker 4I like, No, it's like called the Runaways or the Oh no, not the Wildcat Okay, thank you.
See it seems like I'm talking out of my ass, but that's just a character I do.
Speaker 1That sounds like my voice.
Yeah, the Wildcats.
Speaker 4She was a drummer in a band called the So Then her husband's like, Oh, aren't worried, I'll clean up America.
Speaker 1There I did.
I tried.
Speaker 3I think she did a thing.
There's a chance I'm making this up.
This is for entertainment purposes only, but I think Tipper Gore went way the fuck out.
This happened to many girls that I grew up with.
Right, they go through a difficult period, maybe do a little drug experimentation, maybe they're doing rock and roll band stuff, and they go way the far out here, and then they come all the way back and overcorrect into being a borderliner Republican.
Speaker 1I've seen it so many times, right.
Speaker 3When they go like suddenly the punk rock groll is now born against seen it so many times, and you're like, I can't you still have five holes in your face where you used have rings.
Speaker 4Yeah, you need you put soap in your mouth and blow bubbles through those holes in your bottom.
Speaker 1Let I only my friend Zach used to have piercings here.
Speaker 4On each side under his lap, and later he was a cowboy, actually worked on a ranch, so he went from being punk rock guy at a cowboy guy.
But he still had these holes and so he'd be chewing and the chew spit would be coming out of these holes, and I'm like, you're the only cowboy with that specific problem.
Speaker 1It's the popped polo collar of ex punk rock.
Yeah, that's very funny.
Yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 4And then meanwhile, I don't change in a way that I am almost like, what have I learned nothing?
Speaker 1I have t.
Speaker 4Shirts that I still wear from college, Like I've changed very little.
Speaker 3You've been skateboarding this whole time.
Speaker 1Yes, yeah, I'm doing the same tricks for God's sake.
Well, but you're getting emotionally more stable.
Speaker 3Thank you, that for sure.
Because it's not true.
You did not punch a hole.
Speaker 1No, No, I didn't.
I wasn't that punchy.
You didn't.
Speaker 3No, no, you just HD some chin ups in a rage, right, equally funny, I think.
Speaker 4And I respect it.
I love anyone, even self deprecating.
I like people that rage on themselves.
I know that it's not healthy.
I don't endorse it.
It's something you need to fix in yourself if you're selfish.
Speaker 3But you're saying as opposed to turning it.
Speaker 1Outward, right.
Speaker 4I'm a big fan of creating your own own obstacles, ruining things for yourself though.
That's just the type of person I relate to.
I hear you, I don't.
I don't endorse that.
Yeah, believe in yourself, follow your dreams.
But also, but also don't be cocky and ensure yourself.
Speaker 1Right.
Speaker 4There's a fine line between between cockiness and confidence.
Speaker 3And you better fucking walk it.
Speaker 1Yeah, and it's so fine.
I don't like either.
If you're confident, girl, don't come and peekcock in front of me.
Who do you think you are?
Speaker 3Yeah, you're probably wrong.
Yeah, But also if you're insecure, hey, buddy, don't believe in yourself.
Speaker 4Right, That's what I want out of people.
Yeah, I want to hear you talk shit about yourself.
Other people get turned off.
They're like, boy, that person's negative.
I'm like, I'm are you kidding?
That was the funnest time I've had.
Right, is that we both made fun of ourselves.
Speaker 3What happened in negativity.
I think there's a real there's a there's an argument to be made to bring it back in a real way.
Because I was thinking about this this morning in my TikTok addiction.
Speaker 1Lots of people like to.
Speaker 3Get on and make a video where they go, hey, if no one's told you this today, I believe in you and I love you, you're beautiful, whatever, And I'm just like, I mean, it's a nice idea if that dopamine wise does something for people, but it's not true.
They don't.
If you were like, hey, can you please lend me fifty dollars, they'd be like block.
I mean, it's just like a it's weird lip service.
I'm like, why do we need that?
And when it does, it is not real?
Speaker 4Right, You're right when even if it's useful, even if it's a useful mantra, let's let's wake up and say this day is going to be the easiest version of a day or whatever, and I'm like, oh.
Speaker 1Yeah, I will use that.
Yeah, but I still think, yeah, but what baggage are you hiding?
How are you?
Speaker 3Who are you to tell me to be positive?
Oh?
Speaker 1Really?
You're all healthy?
Are you in the head?
I bet you got some demons?
You're the worst.
Speaker 3You're the I think people who are I'm gonna go way out on a limb here.
Speaker 4Do it.
Speaker 1I won't jiggle no tree.
That was like the seven to eleven guy you wore off on me.
I'm gonna do a yoga trade.
Speaker 3If we wait into seven eleven in Merseill, California.
Speaker 1Where are you at?
What was I gonna say?
Speaker 4If you're going to go out on a limb about the self help gurus and their past, their checkered past.
Speaker 3I think that people who choose lifestyle traits now, people are gonna feel very attact by this.
But I'll give an example, sure of like a yoga tea or somebody that studied yoga, or somebody that's, like I am a hardcore vegan.
I think there is something to at least be noted when people are demonstrably quote unquote moral, because I think it's covering something up right, right, Because why do you why are you It's like if you're eating something or not eating something, who gives a shit?
But you hear about it a lot or you have to be in it, and it's like, well, then you're getting the benefit of a doubt right that you might not actually deserve morally, but you just are like, but I care about deer or whatever the fuck the argument is.
And it's like, okay, but are you actually a decent human being?
Speaker 1Or did you used to stab deers?
Yeah?
Speaker 3Are you actually secretly killing deer?
Speaker 4And it's a cover up when someone starts talking to you about our Lord and the word of the Lord, and it's like, yeah, I learned I found him in prison.
Speaker 1And it's like, well, I so then you had a void that needed to be filled.
I don't.
I don't have that void.
I don't have that Yeah, I didn't.
What about never going to prison?
Speaker 3Yeah?
Speaker 4And also that's why I never found the lord.
He's always getting lost in prison.
Speaker 1Where am I?
I'm gazes?
Speaker 2Is that the cell block?
Speaker 1This is the right cell block?
Speaker 3This is cell block five?
Speaker 1Oh so many offended people?
Why did I give him a goofy?
Speaker 3I mean we we just we actually just offended, literally, like ten different groups of people at one time, trying to just be conversational.
Speaker 1I started it.
Yeah, all you yogi's, we know why you really got into it.
Speaker 3Fucking phony.
Speaker 1Yeah you get suck your own dick.
How you learned to yoga?
Speaker 3Have those ribs removed you perf?
Speaker 2Yeah?
Speaker 4Yeah, oh, I go take my shoes off in your house.
I know why you started stretching.
That's the same reason you have a hammock in your living room.
Speaker 3I love the people that you have to take your shoes off in their house where it's like, that's disgusting wearing outside shoes.
It's like, and yet everyone does it all day every day and they're fine.
So is I mean, sure, preferences are preferences, but.
Speaker 4You better have white shag carpet because in my house you I don't want to see your gross feet.
Speaker 1No, thank you.
I have boots that you're supposed to put on.
I provide them me boots.
Speaker 4Hey, before you come in, will you cover up your take those flip flops off and put on these combat land because I don't need to see your gross hass yellow nails.
Speaker 3No one needs to look at those feet.
Put some.
Speaker 1Corn rim over on those onions.
Speaker 3We love you, we believe in you.
Speaker 1Yeah, but you I love your lifestyle to it.
Yeah, and you give great advice.
Speaker 3We support anything that you want and nothing that you don't want.
Speaker 1However, onions smell and look like onions.
No, it's from Digital Underground.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, you're just doing another quote.
Speaker 4I think it's I think it's Yeah, it's the guy from Digital Underground.
I might be a part of the funky dance.
Speaker 1Smell it London smell look like onions.
Speaker 4Tupacs in the background dancing like boy one day, I'm gonna have better lyrics than that.
Speaker 1And then Chris Cornell's over there noodling a guitar.
Speaker 4It's like when did he kick a hole in the wall and come in here?
Wait a second, so many mashups.
Speaker 3Wait should we drive down there and see what that fire truck and copp are doing?
Oh yeah, hey, oh, I think they're just backing into the fire department unless there was a car accident in front of the fire department.
Speaker 1Yeah, why would there be a cop?
Also, we better see if they need back up?
Also, is that our street?
Hey, do you guys need help?
Her dad was a fireman.
My brother in law nephew.
Speaker 3Yeah, we know a lot of stuff they talk about in the firehouse.
Speaker 1Yeah, would that help at all?
I could just shine the bumper.
I know you guys like to do that.
Speaker 3My dad really enjoyed The Jaws of Life.
Speaker 1Are you guys all going?
You probably cooked a big thing of pasta today, right?
Speaker 3Are you What movie are you watching tonight?
Speaker 4Yeah, it's the only way to really feed a group of people.
I know some of the stuff going in some of my family.
Oh oh oh, oh see, we're making light.
There really was a car There was a car accident.
She looks, okay, that carls on the phone, but she is sad.
Maybe I guess we're gonna do it.
Let's do it, let's try it.
Speaker 1Sorry, we got it.
We gotta go down there.
Speaker 3We worked down here.
Speaker 1That was just it's.
Speaker 3Yeah, I can't do anything about it.
Speaker 1That fender was more than bent.
Speaker 3You know, when there's a car parked in the opposite direction on the other side of the road that there has been a car accident.
Speaker 1They just had to get it out of there.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 4Yeah, And the time to go back to England where it's normal for you to drive on that side.
Speaker 3Yeah, time I should have rolled my window down and said time to go back to England.
Speaker 1I'll get him next to no one never hears that one.
Speaker 4Yeah, I think it's okay to say go back to England, but just say it to any white guy.
Speaker 3The only reason they got a full fire department is because they crashed in front of the fire department.
Oh right, the fire department never comes to a car accident.
Speaker 1I think they do They not, though I guess not.
Speaker 3They're more every I had a guy rearund me so hard that it was insane, and oh.
Speaker 1Did you see that?
Yes?
I did not like that.
Oh what what are we looking at?
Speaker 3Oh?
That guy was walking and he did a flinch thing.
Oh that looked like a glitch.
Oh, but it was kind of a full body twitch.
Speaker 1Did you see it on a leaf?
Oh?
Speaker 3Am?
Speaker 1I going, is he like the cat in the matrix?
Speaker 3It was a little surreally Well maybe it.
Speaker 4Was one of those optical illusions like a pop and lock dance background stin.
Speaker 1He was just trying to have some fun.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what we'll think.
So, yeah, I didn't see it, but I did see your reaction.
Speaker 3It was a little bit like you know when you're about to fall asleep and then you for some reason real quick dream that you tripped in your falling and that you do a fast, hard twitch.
Right.
It was that, but walking across the street, I didn't like it.
Speaker 4I still do the one where I don't even know that I as I fall asleep, I think of falling or something.
Speaker 1Sometimes it happens without me even using my brain, and I jolt and I my entire body.
I kick, yeah, and it wakes me up.
Speaker 4Yes, that happens more often now I hear that that is from don't say Parkinson's is a you.
Speaker 3Have full on parkinson Oh nuts?
Yeah, full blown?
Sorry, full blown a full blown.
Oh it's horrible.
Uh, it's something about your brain is switching from conscious aware, you know, right in the FADA state, into beta or whatever.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Yeah, from active screen time to screensaver.
Speaker 3Yep, to toasters flying with little wings.
Remember that one.
Speaker 1I do reminds me of the old.
Speaker 4One of the top sellers in my T shirt days, my flock of bagels design.
Speaker 1Oh just a v formation of bagels with wings.
Nothing to see here, twelve dollars please?
Speaker 3Did people buy that up?
Oh?
Speaker 1Sure they liked it.
Speaker 4Guitar God had Jesus shredding on the guitar.
Oh yeah, I was gonna get famous.
Speaker 3Wait so these were some nice drawings that you had kind of at the ready.
Speaker 4No, there's my venture into trying to make T shirt companies when I was younger.
Speaker 1Yeah, I can do this on my own with comedy shirts.
Yep.
Speaker 4And then I stopped one day and I'm like, wait, would I wear any of these?
I wouldn't even wear.
Speaker 3These, speaking which, this is a really nice collection of rear window stickers on this van.
But then I'm like, is that true or is that is there anything problematic?
Speaker 5Oh?
Speaker 3Oh right, don't they seem kind of cool?
Speaker 1Yeah?
Speaker 4Yeah, but then you see you start to see some of the symbols.
There's an arrow, there's an ass, there's.
Speaker 1A lightning bowlt what's up with those two lightning bolt esses?
Speaker 3We need to be careful of s's used with like e being bolt spelling.
Speaker 4People use them all the time because they look cool, because a kid like Snow Summit used to have two blatantly.
Speaker 1Yeah, but they didn't know they're just graphic design.
Speaker 3They didn't know Nazi symbolism.
Speaker 1Fuck that they do now because they're more popular again.
Speaker 3Because they got a subscription to the History Channel.
Speaker 4Yeah, and they left their basements and they're look they're out on the street right now.
Speaker 3Look look they're masked up and they're.
Speaker 1Ready to roll.
We're ready to say something poorly.
Yeah, it's yeah.
I think it was just that was a series of stickers.
Speaker 4That was an outdoorsy I'm gonna guess Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 1Van Okay, a lot of it.
They had a sticker that said y'all.
One of the stickers was the shape of Oregon.
Speaker 6That's why I fuck yeah, I'm a bit of a geography hound.
Speaker 1Give me a shape.
Speaker 6I'll guess the state around towns of visuals, RUMs mill, keep them coming, a triangle a town.
Speaker 1It's a percussion city.
Oh, I had no idea there's a driveway here.
I thought you were just saying fuck it and slamming into the curb.
Speaker 3I was like, you know what, fuck all these people.
Speaker 1My heart dropped.
Speaker 3Isn't this great?
It's my bill so I could park here because even though it's not like technically a parking spot, it's it's only up to us to have people to I think that's.
Speaker 1The thing with a with a curb cut like this, that's what they call and skateboarding.
Speaker 4It looks like a driveway, but there's no door that what used to be a garage door back when this was a transmission shop or whatever.
Speaker 3And we'll get back there someday, I hope.
Speaker 1I've been wanting to gut my hardy on that front carpet all month.
Speaker 6Yeah.
Speaker 4I think it is up to the resident, So don't worry unless you call the tow truck on yourself during one of your big polar episodes.
Speaker 1Oh, another group of offended people.
Speaker 3Listen, Let's do a real quick before we wrap up.
We'll do just a real quick list of apologies.
I directly apologize to a vegan, to any vegans, vegetarians, or people with just kind of gastric restrictions, I'm sorry to have judged you.
I was wrong.
Speaker 4I'd liked an issue issue of official apology to any martyrs out there, as well as Yogi's.
Speaker 1And self induced blow people.
Speaker 3I'd like to apologize to Jake Johnson.
We should keep your name out our mouth, because who are we to talk about you in any way.
Speaker 1Shape.
Speaker 4Let's apologize to all the people we said nice things, because that's all I can remember right now.
Speaker 3Oh.
Speaker 4Also, you need to find Jesus.
I'm not even gonna apologize.
I'm just gonna do a one eighty.
