We hope you're enjoying your Air Canada flight.
00:00:10.720
Fast-free Wi-Fi means I can make dinner reservations before we land.
00:00:25.260
Wi-Fi available to Airplane members on Equipped Flight.
00:00:30.000
I want to let you know, we have these new hoodies, the Onward hoodies, in the merch shop.
00:00:34.340
These are my favorite template of hoodie ever, that we've ever had.
00:00:50.120
He has two podcasts, Tuesdays with Stories, with Joe List, and We Might Be Drunk with Sam Murrell.
00:01:04.200
And he has a new series out called Page to Stage, where comedians take something from their notebook and you see it build until it gets performed.
00:01:15.120
Today's guest is a one-of-one, my Louisiana brethren, Mr. Mark Norman.
00:01:20.880
Shine on me, and I will find a song I've been singing.
00:01:51.660
That's the only way I can get to him, because if I do it at his house, he'll, you know,
00:01:55.380
sick his security guards on me and call me the N-word.
00:01:59.880
Dude, he has a dog that can say the N-word I saw.
00:02:13.720
He thought a Black Lab was a place where they tested barbecue sauce.
00:02:40.360
I've done arena shows, but I've never done like a panel with jokes and zingers, and that's
00:02:44.880
going to be weird, just making fun of these poor open micers in front of 20,000 people.
00:02:49.300
Dude, and imagine them getting up there, that many people.
00:02:58.520
I mean, it's like losing your virginity to Pamela Anderson.
00:03:23.720
She just got separated from her husband, I think.
00:03:28.200
I thought about sending her a message, but I don't know what I would say.
00:03:36.920
No one talks to her like that anymore, so it'll probably turn her on.
00:03:39.420
You think, oh, I'll definitely say something about that vegetation.
00:04:02.340
Yeah, dude, it would take you 70 minutes to get her bra on, I think.
00:04:11.540
It would almost have to be like two of those guys doing that slingshot thing or whatever.
00:04:34.080
Even a woman like you're – I remember trying to hit on this lady, and she'll be like – she's
00:04:40.440
like, I'd love to go out with you, but I'm only going to be a woman for like another week.
00:05:05.980
It is – dude, I feel like when you get on, you have to protect your straightness.
00:05:13.600
I tell my penis, I say, you know what we're here for.
00:05:22.540
It'll be like a kind of a guy, you know, like a guy possibly dressed as a woman walking
00:05:52.100
That is very nice when a gay guy's like, hey, cutie or whatever, and you're like, eh, this
00:06:02.400
And now it's like a lot of us didn't even have dads, so it's like they're kind of coming
00:06:17.160
That's a lot of gay guys' thing is don't you want that combo meal?
00:06:21.900
And you can blow the fucking chrome off your trailer hitch.
00:06:26.960
Dude, can you – this is insane to be talking about.
00:06:40.640
But, dude, yeah, there's just something like they – yeah, you see them and they – but
00:06:45.960
yeah, God, could you even imagine some strong guy who was probably like on the neck team
00:06:53.360
in college or whatever, some sporting event like the –
00:06:59.940
And he just pins your cock to the back of his throat with his tongue or whatever.
00:07:09.820
You're going to make Morgan Wallen uncomfortable.
00:07:21.660
There was one at Louisiana State when I was at LSU.
00:07:31.540
I think it was in – I want to say the library.
00:07:39.520
Oh, there's one right there taking a dump in Tarot.
00:07:42.300
That's one of those – one of the holes there.
00:07:49.240
You could even look through there if you wanted to, which is nice.
00:07:51.460
But it's hard to look through there when there's a wiener coming through.
00:07:57.140
Don't be that weirdo that's trying to sightsee at a Glory Hole.
00:08:01.840
Yeah, you just got to – you got to trust the hole.
00:08:08.100
Dude, that's the original game show right there.
00:08:13.820
Yeah, now it's like – I'm thinking of what it's called now.
00:08:19.920
But nothing – that has nothing on the Glory Hole is open.
00:08:27.480
Yeah, and you never know who's on the other side.
00:08:29.220
It could be your teacher, your brother, your pastor.
00:08:36.880
It could be some gay dude you're going to – or woman.
00:08:40.120
Nowadays, even lesbians will stop in there just to couture their jawline.
00:08:53.460
They'll fucking – they'll hit a single at least through that thing.
00:08:56.140
Yeah, Brittany Griner could get something through that hole.
00:08:59.740
That's what put her in jail in Russia, I heard.
00:09:23.820
Dude, I've never – bro, that's – dude, this is that new shit, man.
00:09:41.760
That's a pretty decent start for an episode, I feel like.
00:09:55.900
Yeah, we were just out with Tony, and Tony's like, I got a surprise for you.
00:09:59.460
We jump in a car, we drive a half hour, and then bam.
00:10:20.960
A lot of those guys love to cook when they're not fucking like sniping fucking Gazans on behalf of Israel.
00:10:43.920
You need some cash out there if you're going to buy a little dreidel, some knickknacks.
00:10:49.060
Oh, I'll fucking spend Gimel on that, bitch, son.
00:10:53.120
They used to call me Big Gimel in a lot of back alleys.
00:10:59.360
In a lot of Yiddish back alleys, they used to call me fucking Jimmy Gimel, dog.
00:11:04.200
Oh, the whaling wall, it should have at least two ATMs at it.
00:11:08.060
I can't even believe this is an issue over there.
00:11:10.400
It's got to have one, or at least a glory hole.
00:11:16.300
Yeah, only in the glory holes in Israel, it says FDIC insured.
00:11:42.820
Speaking of going abroad, you have shows coming up abroad, man.
00:11:51.380
I mean, the flight's a bitch, and you get homesick, and the jet lag's a real cum guzzler,
00:12:21.740
Salford, United Kingdom, Cardiff, United Kingdom, Bristol, United Kingdom, Birmingham, London,
00:12:49.420
It's kind of shitty because you don't get to see anything.
00:13:04.260
You go to these places, people are like, stay, do this and that.
00:13:06.340
But then, like, you do five, six shows, you're on the road then for two weeks, kind
00:13:12.500
Or, you know, you try to get into, and it's like, well, how long are you going to be over?
00:13:16.100
Are you going to be over there for three weeks?
00:13:18.380
Oh, you start, I get that FOMO, like, what's going on in America?
00:13:21.340
You start looking at J.D. Vance memes, you're like, oh, I miss home.
00:13:29.120
They had one the other day that said he has up syndrome.
00:13:33.860
This is a picture of J.D. Vance has up syndrome.
00:13:37.940
I think he loves it, too, which is fun about him.
00:13:41.740
I bet he could, I honestly, I should send him one of these and see what he thinks about it.
00:13:47.580
I would just scroll through those at dinner if I was him.
00:13:52.420
You know, that's a different meme, if you know what I mean.
00:13:59.040
I think I would like to try and get to interview him again because now he's in there.
00:14:07.140
Well, did you see Kid Rock over there dressed like a fucking firecracker salesman?
00:14:11.600
Oh, he was dressed like a fireman at a glory hole.
00:14:18.160
Dude, he was dressed like the Grand Wizard of Cracker Jack.
00:14:25.480
He looks like he's selling used cars in Bristol, Tennessee.
00:14:31.680
This guy looks like he could fucking sign the Constitution with his cock, dude.
00:14:45.940
Dude, if this photo alone doesn't get the Tiger King out of prison.
00:14:55.940
If I was a Chinese motherfucker and I saw that, I'd go, we can't fuck with them.
00:15:01.280
Yeah, they're like, we made that shirt, but we didn't know he'd wear it like that.
00:15:05.200
You think Zelensky sees that and he's like, shit, I really didn't dress up.
00:15:14.960
He looks like the pilot for Malaysian Flight 370 or whatever.
00:15:25.640
That's a fucking, that thing landed on a cock, dude.
00:15:29.300
Well, the flights have been, I think they've picked it up a little bit, but we had some
00:15:33.180
crazy flights for a while, like Upside Down and Flights.
00:15:37.300
Trying to show all these people what it's all about, dude.
00:15:39.240
They had Run DMC flying one of the planes, dude.
00:15:50.220
Dude, and you have to listen to DMX when you get out of that plane, right?
00:15:55.860
The plane's upside down, and now we have to exit.
00:15:58.400
There's no way I don't put a fucking, I don't bounce a track on my phone right there.
00:16:29.120
And a lot of people thought Matt Reif is that guy who's trying to live forever, whatever.
00:16:40.800
Yeah, a lot of people thought that that's Matt Reif.
00:16:44.260
Why does the guy who lives forever have to be annoying?
00:16:46.880
You know, if the guy's going to live forever, you'd like him to be fun.
00:16:52.760
He went like John Daly to live forever, you know?
00:16:56.840
Well, especially because Hooters just went bankrupt, which is crazy.
00:17:09.660
Restaurant chain Hooters goes bust and files for bankruptcy protection.
00:17:15.820
And there is a – and if you can't see on the YouTube, on the video right now, there
00:17:20.220
is a picture of all Asian women in Hooters' attire.
00:17:30.440
Chinese waitresses dressed in orange shorts and T-shirts cheer while welcoming the arriving
00:17:42.860
It's the U.S. restaurant chain known for chicken wings and its skinny Hooters' girls
00:17:46.620
waitstaff outfits has filed for bankruptcy protection.
00:17:51.220
HOA restaurant group filed for the motion for Chapter 11.
00:17:54.800
It's the latest legacy restaurant chain to run into financial trouble amid high food
00:18:02.480
I saw a couple of porkers in there on the last few years.
00:18:06.180
Let's just say that they got probably so many articles saying that they couldn't hire
00:18:27.860
It's the end of an era, but we still got Twin Peaks.
00:18:31.020
Just a sleeper that they just kept low and didn't talk and now they're still around.
00:18:41.140
He was hot for a while, but now Kieran's taking over.
00:18:51.760
It's just some girl named Stacy who's trying to make a few bucks.
00:19:02.720
You know, will you model those sodas over here for me?
00:19:05.360
Like, not in a bad way, but it's like, look, I want to support your modeling.
00:19:21.500
If I have you sign my 11-year-old son's back with a Sharpie.
00:19:28.060
And then do I tip you by putting the money in your G-string?
00:19:30.880
You know, like a strip club, at least you know.
00:19:35.880
Hooters was this vague thing where like, hey, while you're a pervert, let's get some fucking protein in you.
00:19:43.280
And then if you go, sometimes you'd go with a girl.
00:19:45.280
Like, you'd be at a work lunch and the whole gang would go.
00:19:56.980
You're like, oh, well, they should have a place called Nuts that we could take you, Shelly.
00:20:03.360
And she's been losing her hair because she has like iron deficiency or something.
00:20:12.120
Cause you know, he, uh, he used to live in a Hooters.
00:20:19.340
Didn't John Daly live in a Hooters, bring that up?
00:20:25.900
John Gruden had an office apparently at Hooters headquarters and John Daly had a special sleeping
00:20:34.680
Oh, on the most recent episode of Theo Vaughn's This Past Weekend Podcast.
00:20:44.260
Um, I saw John Daly overdose on Jim one night and had to get carried out of a restaurant,
00:21:08.060
That lady that, uh, cooks and that said the N-word.
00:21:14.140
Boy, there's gonna be a lot of N-word in that kitchen.
00:21:18.500
Maybe we should throw a black guy in just to even it out a little bit.
00:21:41.100
So he'll be, he'll be wearing the Klan hood, ironically.
00:21:45.400
So it's like, what do we, what do whites do now that there's, I don't want to say this
00:22:00.840
I mean, it's so weird because Elon's trying to tell him, hey, I'm not a Nazi.
00:22:06.740
Oh, it's so hard these days to figure out if you're a Nazi or not.
00:22:11.780
I mean, did you ever think you'd see this many swastikas in 2020?
00:22:16.740
And you, they're not even pointed that you don't even know who they're playing.
00:22:19.320
Like, it's like there's liberal people using swastikas because they, uh, they're angry.
00:22:29.420
So these poor Jews are like, all right, well that's, that means fuck me.
00:22:32.880
I know you're mad at that guy, but what about me?
00:22:35.140
But then you also have people saying that, um, that American Israel are swastika.
00:22:41.140
They're using it, promoting them because they're killing the Palestinians.
00:22:46.120
So you're saying that they're the fat, like, you know what I'm saying?
00:22:57.160
It's like, what happened to a fucking, the business transaction of a glory hole, dude?
00:23:03.120
You know, I mean, uh, we're buying Greenland, Gulf of America, Canada's mad at us.
00:23:16.900
Ah, but at the same time, is it the most exciting?
00:23:23.180
It's the best of time and the worst of time, but you could open X and you're just like,
00:23:34.660
You're just shitting like, oh, that's a bear attack.
00:23:40.020
Black kids beat up another white kid at school.
00:23:47.720
And then there's like crazy tit lady and it says, don't open this if you're alone.
00:23:57.560
It's like 10 reasons why, uh, apples are killing your body right now.
00:24:05.740
Did you see that Bill Burr thing where he yelled at the reporter?
00:24:17.880
And a reporter's like trying to get him to say controversial shit.
00:24:22.900
I'm not going to just have some controversial moments so you can get clicks.
00:24:40.080
You said about Elon that he was ruining Earth, I saw, on The View.
00:24:46.820
Like, even the violence that's going on in high school.
00:24:58.200
And I don't think you should be asking a comedian.
00:25:08.400
You guys need to have balls again, which you don't.
00:25:11.300
You guys always go, should we be thinking this?
00:25:22.340
But yeah, it's so cool because he's like, you're trying to get me to say shit so you
00:25:28.440
I can get in trouble now and go viral for some ignorant shit I said.
00:25:35.340
Yeah, it has, it's definitely become crazy now.
00:25:38.080
It's like, um, but it's because people are afraid to speak up because I think all those
00:25:42.100
people feel like they'll probably lose their jobs.
00:25:44.720
I think a lot of them are just caught in this old system with like, if I say anything that's
00:25:49.240
truthful, that's why I think why a lot of like, you even see like Candace Owens, you
00:25:53.140
see a lot of comedians, podcasters, like people are listening to them.
00:25:56.600
At least they, they're trying to figure shit out or they're talking about things as earnestly
00:26:03.240
Well, we're so divided now that if you say this opinion, the other side attacks you.
00:26:07.260
If you say that opinion, that side attacks you.
00:26:09.120
So, uh, the, the, the newspapers want to sell clicks or whatever.
00:26:13.400
So they're just like, we'll go down the middle.
00:26:16.100
You say the fucked up shit and we'll report about it.
00:26:21.940
Where's the fucking, how was it that like, even during the first year of like the Gaza thing
00:26:26.160
that not one mainstream network guy was like, Hey, this seems kind of fucked up.
00:26:32.620
I thought people were talking, I guess it's mostly internet people.
00:26:35.720
I think it was more internet people, but it was kind of like, Hey, this, you know, or
00:26:40.660
even just any side, like let's get one interview from a Palestinian guy.

You have a, you have a new show that you're doing.
00:29:54.800
I'm trying to sell it, but it's, it's called page to stage and page to stage.
00:29:59.460
Like you come up with a bit idea and then you go up at Zany's and work it out and it's
00:30:03.420
clunky and then you work it out again and again and again.
00:30:05.400
And then eventually you crack it and now you're doing it at an arena.
00:30:09.780
So you, it shows the comic thinking of a bit and then struggling with it and then eventually
00:30:16.700
And like in between, oh, that's an example of it right there.
00:30:19.440
Yeah, we've done a couple episodes already and this is episode one.
00:30:39.760
You take it on stage, it bombs and you do it again.
00:30:49.600
You like break, you break down the bit with other friends, kind of work on it?
00:30:53.500
Like me and Sam Murillo, Chris DiStefano, we'll sit at the cellar and chop it up and try to
00:30:58.040
figure out where the funny is and what angle to go with.
00:31:09.820
We're down here selling hooters to fucking people.
00:31:16.440
I mean, you got, the Zanies has opened another room.
00:31:22.760
So yeah, this, and each episode will be a different comic.
00:31:25.020
I do the first one, then it'll be, you know, Ronnie Chang and Michelle Wolf and Shane.
00:31:30.560
So the show is going to be, it's just different examples of that?
00:31:40.440
Yeah, I want to start working on some new stuff, man.
00:31:45.240
I think I'll go down to Austin probably to work on it.
00:31:48.420
I mean, that mothership, you can't beat that room.
00:31:50.420
Well, just to have this, and also there's other rooms right around there.
00:31:57.240
It's called like Skinny F*** or whatever you know what it's called.
00:32:05.880
But they have a lot of like, yeah, it's like autistic cat or whatever.
00:32:16.500
Like, dude, things there are so progressive, but also way-
00:32:20.020
It's like, I've seen like save the N-words there, and you're like, that does not seem-
00:32:27.520
Like, it's like racist and progressive because it's like Austin.
00:32:35.820
Save the whales, but you're talking about fat people.
00:32:40.280
Yeah, I mean, Austin's fun because when you're working on new shit, you've got to be able
00:32:46.900
And it's even a lot of times when you're working on new stuff, for me, it's like that third
00:32:50.120
time you do it in a night, even if you don't even want to do it.
00:32:52.880
And nothing comes out of it, but it's still just burning that like, every time you cook it,
00:32:58.300
And it's like, so the next time will be good, right?
00:33:00.860
You know, they say when you lift weights, the one where you're like, ah, and you can't
00:33:04.600
get it up, that's the one that matters the most.
00:33:07.300
When you're working on that new one and you don't want to say it and it's not really working,
00:33:10.880
that's when you find it, when you just push it.
00:33:15.320
I have a buddy that just started comedy last week.
00:33:24.340
I mean, we're 20 years in or whatever the fuck.
00:33:27.280
I used to watch you at open mics at fucking Lucy's Surfer Bar in New Orleans.
00:33:32.880
You had a hot girlfriend, you had some money, you had a cool haircut.
00:33:36.040
I didn't have, well, I did have a very cute girlfriend.
00:33:50.500
Armour walking by like some of the Saints players and they're all said, we're going
00:34:00.740
But yeah, dude, God, bro, when we went to Lucy's, that was fun, dude.
00:34:20.120
I don't know if he's okay with talking about this, but bring it up.
00:34:45.700
And that was the first time I had like a group, like a clique.
00:34:51.400
And, but they had a docu, he was part of a very important docu.
00:34:58.980
It's a 2019 American biographical drama film directed by Gabriela Cal Perthwaite and written
00:35:04.660
by Brad Inglesby based on Matthew Teague's 2015 Esquire article.
00:35:16.520
And it's based on one of the, I think the main character is based on him.
00:35:24.140
Oh God, are you going to tell me he's got some disease?
00:35:26.400
In a flashback to 2000, Matt, a journalist and Nicola theater performer live in New Orleans.
00:35:29.940
She introduces Matt to Dane, a friend from college working as a camera operator who dreams
00:35:45.440
I mean, you're talking to presidents, vice president, Bernie Sanders.
00:35:51.080
Well, I think everything is getting kind of bizarre now, you know?
00:35:55.200
Um, everything is getting like turning into the WWE.
00:36:00.140
It's like, yeah, you can have like, you can literally next month, you could have Wolf Blitzer
00:36:05.060
fighting that, um, who was that like, uh, save the whales, like kind of like kid or
00:36:13.380
whatever that was like, uh, you are not representing us.
00:36:30.380
Well, she started, she started saying stuff that liberals didn't agree.
00:36:33.500
She started like, oh, she was speaking out for Palestine and now they're like, ah,
00:36:39.660
I thought that was her, she would take a steamboat from Sweden to, to yell at somebody
00:36:46.640
Well, the second she wore that Palestinian garb, they're like, nah, she doesn't even
00:37:14.900
This is the most, you've changed my life today, dude.
00:37:35.100
He was on some TV show, like Bar Rescue, some bullshit like that.
00:37:39.380
And that was, I was like, he's been on TV and same with you.
00:37:48.020
You had to wait to get tapped to get on TV and you got six seconds on some weird show.
00:37:52.240
And now we got the internet so we can just put it all out there.
00:37:55.400
Now you can just be like, hey, I'm an alcoholic and just tell people straight up.
00:37:59.860
And a lot of comedians in the world were just alcoholics that were trying to stay away from
00:38:08.520
I didn't have a wife or anything at that time, but you'd see guys coming in, you know,
00:38:19.400
We all had stage fright and salt poisoning from living in Louisiana.
00:38:27.580
They had that one comic, Black Gout or whatever his name was.
00:38:32.560
Well, the black comics all had like chicken fry, cornbread, red bean.
00:39:09.040
I saw Chris Porter there in like 2002 or something.
00:39:15.480
He had a bit about, he's like, smoking and drinking, they go together.
00:39:19.200
You can drink without smoking, but you can't smoke without drinking.
00:39:22.560
It's kind of like, you can take a piss without shitting, but you can't shit without pissing.
00:39:38.600
And that's when kind of the handicapped era started on Last Comic with Josh Blue, who
00:39:43.060
was hilarious, who made, Josh Blue was one of the best at having a disability, but also
00:39:47.760
But I think it definitely launched a wave of, you know, and it kind of ended with that
00:39:51.820
guy who faked having cancer for Ellen or whatever.
00:40:20.620
I feel bad calling him out, but he got kind of called out and then he got an HBO special
00:40:29.580
Whatever Happened to the Comedian that, Quincy Jones was his name.
00:40:33.880
Jones graduated from, on August 25th, Jones was diagnosed with stage four mesothelioma
00:40:42.320
Friends set up a Kickstarter for him to produce a stand-up comedy special starring Jones.
00:40:46.060
His story went viral after he appeared on Ellen.
00:40:48.740
After he raised $50,000, wow, that's incredible.
00:40:51.140
Jones filmed a comedy special at the Terragram Ballroom in LA titled Burning the Light.
00:41:05.220
Well, it's a weird thing when you tell people you have cancer because then they get mad that
00:41:12.540
We had a guy like that who had done a couple of fundraisers or whatever and he was still
00:41:15.960
alive and people would get so fucking pissed at him.
00:41:19.260
We did a GoFundMe and you're supposed to be dead.
00:41:30.760
But I remember back then I was like, oh my God, I wish I got cancer because it was so
00:41:36.240
I was like, oh, every mole I had, I was like, check this bitch.
00:41:39.520
Put me in the sun and some radiation on my ass.
00:41:43.180
I would put little fake moles on my arm when I went on stage.
00:41:47.640
He may have just gotten better, which probably made it also uncomfortable for him.
00:42:07.500
We used to be so scared of AIDS and Magic Johnson is kicking.
00:42:13.380
I've told this before, but I was at a restaurant where someone was choking to death, right?
00:42:20.580
So everybody, it was like a Chinese restaurant kind of place.
00:42:27.640
They brought out a little, one of those Chinese walls they fold up.
00:42:32.320
Yeah, it's like a very great wall, but it's short.
00:42:38.780
They brought that out and started doing CPR on the guy behind the wall.
00:42:45.940
But everybody stopped eating because it's like you can't eat while a guy is like choking
00:42:54.200
So then everybody starts kind of looking at Magic Johnson like when do we eat, right?
00:42:58.180
He became somehow like the liaison of feasting or whatever they call it in the Greek mythology
00:43:11.600
And you can tell he starts to feel this pressure.
00:43:21.620
And then fucking something happened immediately.
00:43:45.320
And if your wife doesn't salute you like that when you eat General Tso, you're not a fucking
00:43:56.780
Speaking of, do you see these Yankee bats, by the way?
00:44:03.740
I don't know where the Yankees, their bats are fat as shit.
00:44:16.700
Like a weird dick that girthy in the middle and then cones out.
00:44:20.020
Well, that seems weird because wouldn't the angle of the bat then affect which direction
00:44:26.300
I think what they engineered it perfectly where it just sails it.
00:44:30.840
During spring training, someone in the organization for the Yankees had mentioned to Kay that the
00:44:34.400
team's analytics department had counseled players on where pitches tended to strike their
00:44:38.100
bats and with subsequent buy-in from some of the players' bats had been designed around
00:44:43.880
In the hours before the Yankees' home game against the Brewers that day, Kay, who is the
00:44:49.060
Yankees' play-by-play man, told the YES Network production staff about this, alerting them
00:44:53.740
so they could look for an opportunity to highlight the equipment.
00:44:56.900
After the Yankees clubbed four homers in the first inning, a camera zoomed in on Jay Chisholm's
00:45:03.280
You see the shape of Chisholm's bat, Kay said on air.
00:45:09.020
And it does, it has a look towards like the one part, like a snake digesting something
00:45:21.300
I mean, you got four homers in the first inning.
00:45:22.960
I mean, they're like, they're on fire, which they were already a good team, but now they
00:45:38.540
How, like, are they allowed to just change their bats like that?
00:45:41.840
Can you look at why they're allowed to do that?
00:45:45.980
It's other than the rule books is you can't have a fat bat or whatever it is.
00:45:49.340
The idea of the torpedo bat is to take a size format, say, 34 inches and 32 ounces, and distribute
00:45:55.000
the wood in a different shape than the traditional form to ensure the fattest part of the bat is
00:46:00.980
located where the player makes the most contact.
00:46:07.000
It's the same amount of wood, but they just put it in different spots of the bat.
00:46:11.060
The torpedo bat moves some of the mass on the end of the bat about six to seven inches
00:46:14.700
lower, giving it a bowling pin shape with a much thinner end.
00:46:19.640
The benefits for those who like swinging with it, and not everyone who has swung with it
00:46:25.760
The first is that distributing more mass to the area of most frequent contact aligns
00:46:29.160
with players' swing patterns and provides greater impact when the bat strikes ball.
00:46:34.320
The second benefit in theory is increased bat speed.
00:46:36.920
Imagine a sledgehammer and a broomstick that both weigh 32 ounces.
00:46:41.040
The sledgehammer's weight is almost all at the end, whereas the broomstick is distributed
00:46:48.840
So they're saying that it's slower to swing than new one.
00:46:55.500
By shedding some of the weight off the end of the torpedo bat and moving it towards the
00:46:59.200
middle, hitters have found it swings very similarly to a traditional model, but with slightly
00:47:08.240
I haven't seen a bat like that since the wet market.
00:47:17.240
Well, there was a part where they allegedly deflated the balls some.
00:47:41.600
He's like he's got like ball skin on his forearms.
00:47:45.580
Dude, can you believe that women like used to not even be able to talk that much?
00:47:51.680
But can you even imagine like you're at dinner and a guy comes up to talk and you talk to
00:48:01.860
Well, women really got screwed because like they couldn't really make a lot of money back
00:48:05.340
So they needed a guy who had a house and a car and a job.
00:48:12.900
You imagine the resentment built up in a lot of those women?
00:48:16.900
That's why a lot of third generation women are squirters, I think, because it's all that
00:49:00.680
I knew a girl definitely that could fucking wash your cat's eyes before you could blink
00:49:07.020
It was like those the windshield wipe squirter, you know, you clean the window.
00:49:13.900
It was like a like a fire hydrant in a black neighborhood.
00:49:16.700
I mean, she would just stand up and it would gush.
00:49:23.680
And there's a couple of young sisters double dutching in it.
00:49:30.380
I love a squirt because with a female orgasm, there's not really a lot of proof.
00:50:01.380
You need a gutter on the side of your bed just to get some runoff.
00:50:04.320
You got to clean the leaves out every year, but still.
00:50:08.980
Yeah, you get somebody that's a real galosh or you'd have to fucking somebody like, damn,
00:50:19.240
Oh, you'd have to use that stuff that you would use on your car.
00:50:27.800
We're like, because we'd seen commercials that would like make the rain bead off the window.
00:50:33.360
So we'd Rain-X our cars, get stoned, drive in the rain and watch it bead off.

00:53:40.160
Well, we all have some fucked up tendencies and all that, but...
00:53:43.860
Did you have, like, how did you change your tendencies to meet a woman?
00:53:47.180
And I know you have a child now, but how did you change your tendencies?
00:53:49.740
Because you were kind of like a rost about man, huh?
00:53:55.560
I just, it was getting older and I knew I wanted kids.
00:53:59.260
You're like, all right, if I have a kid at 50, by the time he's 10, I'll be 60.
00:54:07.760
So, and I heard Bill Burst say, not to bring him up again, but he was like, I should have
00:54:13.040
And I heard that and I was like, oh shit, maybe I should do it now.
00:54:19.860
The average age of new fathers in the United States has risen from 30.9, uh, risen to 30.9
00:54:26.220
A significant increase from 27.4 years in 1972.
00:54:53.600
He looks like definitely the guy that'll turn a triple play at a glory hole, you know?
00:55:01.700
Oh, he's always definitely had that very like America's favorite spice trader guy.
00:55:11.040
He definitely looks like a guy that'll sell you a secret.
00:55:19.600
His new special, I think is the best looking comedy special I've seen.
00:55:25.020
Like the beacon theater is killer and the way he starts it with that montage.
00:55:35.100
That's insane to see you right now and be talking to you for the past 40 minutes and
00:55:41.960
I mean, it'll get taken away at some point, but for now, let it ride.
00:55:52.740
May Planner gives birth to her first child with Mark Norman.
00:56:08.640
She looked good the whole time and she did the old C-sect.
00:56:20.240
But yeah, you really, you really, you really get all mushy with the thing.
00:56:27.000
Uh, like negative and always looking at the bad, not the good.
00:56:31.580
I think it, well, I noticed for myself, it's hard for me sometimes, or it used to be for
00:56:35.660
And when like something was really real, like a real moment, it was hard for me to like
00:56:46.160
And so was that kind of, did that come into play at all?
00:56:49.400
Do you notice that part of you come in and you almost have to stop it?
00:56:55.320
Like you're, you're talking baby talk and you're just like gushing with love and you
00:56:59.720
pour it right on them and you feel it and you go, fuck it.
00:57:08.780
I mean, that came out of your ball bag and her stomach.
00:57:12.400
I mean, the whole thing is, it's surreal that you made this thing and it's going to
00:57:17.060
grow up and have a personality and, you know, weird addictions and, you know, thoughts on
00:57:22.420
races and that's all going to form right there in his little noggin.
00:57:28.540
Does it create a new relationship with your wife?
00:57:30.820
Like, is there now some like, cause I've heard Schultz say that like, you know, you
00:57:34.400
now like he would have times where he would call his wife to check on the baby and not
00:57:38.720
And so like he said, just there were little dynamics like that, that he started to notice
00:57:43.060
where, does it make like a new relationship with you and your wife?
00:57:57.500
You know, it just becomes like, all right, I'll take them for this moment.
00:58:03.860
And so it turns into scheduling and very, um, like calculated almost.
00:58:11.300
And so it's kind of like the two of you versus the baby and you become a team, but you got
00:58:19.340
You got to still be cuddly and sexy and all that shit and fun.
00:58:25.460
How long do you have to wait before you can be sexually active with your spouse?
00:58:30.300
So we did like six weeks and a day before I went, and I jizzed in her on accident.
00:58:42.440
I was like, I was, I had been so long and I lasted like eight seconds and, uh, I couldn't
00:58:59.800
It's like, like walking out of a burning building, right?
00:59:06.720
It's like leaving tower one and going into tower two.
00:59:11.160
And you go in there and fucking blaze up a smoke.
00:59:20.000
Is it almost, was it territorial or were you just partying?
00:59:24.540
I, I, I'm an idiot, but I'm, I'm just lucky we had a kid.
00:59:30.380
Everyone else is doing the IVF and adopting and all that.
00:59:48.700
These days, it's the only way to get into this country.
01:00:18.680
I guess it just came out the wrong chute, you know?
01:00:23.960
Have you ever seen those pictures of those guys that get stuck in those tunnels like in
01:00:30.200
But the baby, it just got off on the wrong exit.
01:00:47.980
The butthole and the vagina, they're like an inch apart.
01:00:54.840
It's two arch enemies living right next door to each other.
01:01:01.140
What has, speaking of that, has there been like a lot of turmoil in, do you see a lot
01:01:10.500
I mean, Columbia University is a hotbed of controversy, and they deported that guy, whatever
01:01:21.080
And one of the food trucks went missing, too, ironically, the same day.
01:01:29.980
I can't believe, after all the things that have been said, that's the one where you say
01:01:47.300
What do we know about foreign college students targeted for deportation?
01:01:52.600
The Trump administration has set off a legal and ethical firestorm by targeting international
01:01:56.920
students at U.S. colleges for deportation, including some whom the government alleges
01:02:01.520
participated in pro-Palestinian protests or activities on campus.
01:02:05.300
I will say, to be a Jewish guy around this has got to be awkward.
01:02:09.680
Like, I feel like there's a lot of anti-Semitism hurled at them, and no one seems to give a shit.
01:02:14.920
Like, if you make black comments, it's like, it's a bad, it's national news.
01:02:20.280
But I don't think anyone really gives a shit about the Jew feelings.
01:02:24.300
Yeah, well, I think you have to, I think you have to be able to separate that.
01:02:29.000
They don't get the, they don't get the, uh, the oppression points that other groups get.
01:02:36.700
Well, cause I think that they've, from what I've learned, they've been like, had a tough
01:02:42.720
Like, historically, that they've had a tough time finding a place to live in.
01:02:46.080
And I think what the, what just hasn't helped has been the shit in Gaza.
01:02:52.080
It's like, I think it's just made like, um, and then there's a lot of, I think people start
01:03:00.300
And I think you have a lot of Jewish people that are super successful.
01:03:05.220
Oh, the best thing on the weather, the best, right?
01:03:08.700
And so then I think it doesn't, that makes things like, I think that's where people take
01:03:15.460
one bridge, go from one thing and bridge to another.
01:03:19.800
And there's so much nuance here too, that people forget it's just good versus evil, but
01:03:33.680
Um, Mahmoud Khalil, I think that's what you're talking about.
01:03:36.420
A 30 year old Columbia university, international affairs, graduate student of Palestinian descent
01:03:41.260
was arrested on March 8th when ice agents appeared at his student apartment building.
01:03:46.900
I would think it was like one of those fraternity things they do in the morning or whatever.
01:03:50.520
Like a initiation where they spray a air horn on you or hit you with a fire extinguisher.
01:03:56.500
It was like a Sigma alpha genocide or whatever.
01:03:59.480
And they're fucking taking you outside to tickle you until you fucking, uh, piss gin or
01:04:06.760
Khalil is married to an American citizen who's pregnant with their first child.
01:04:09.820
The Trump administration accused Khalil, a Palestinian activist of supporting Hamas and
01:04:13.860
distributing pro Hamas propaganda, though it has provided no evidence to support this
01:04:22.700
Because then you also wonder like what, like if, if there's Israeli influence, cause that's
01:04:27.060
a big thing now, like how much Israeli influence is there in like American politics, you know?
01:04:32.780
I feel like America is just like, it feels like we're just owned by Israel, you know?
01:04:42.100
If we're just a team, then just tell us we're a fucking team.
01:04:50.100
Everything's fucking sliding right over that little hair wallet.
01:04:53.880
But dude, that's the thing I think that would help everybody if they would just say, hey, this
01:05:01.660
So, cause otherwise I think you're just, there's still this ruse of pretending that people aren't
01:05:09.680
Or if you let people start to figure it out themselves, then a lot of times people go
01:05:33.380
And also like how to be supportive of your Jewish friendship that, you know, it's like.
01:05:59.400
Mamou Khalil speaks to members of media about the revolt for Rafah encampment at Columbia University.
01:06:04.460
Dude, I think, but also, dude, the shit that's going on over there is so horrific.
01:06:09.480
Here's what I think has happened in Gaza recently, right?
01:06:11.940
I think they are testing a lot of like the technology and things that they've, weapons and stuff.
01:06:26.400
This is really taking over a lot of the old brain.
01:06:29.880
I think I got, maybe I got caught in a fucking Twitter hole the other night.
01:06:33.720
I had to call Sean Ryan and tell him, like, dude, everything's okay, right?
01:06:53.740
When you're like, how is this fucking going on?
01:07:00.640
They won't tell us, they think we can't handle it, but this is way worse.
01:07:03.460
Now we're all killing each other and fighting in the streets.
01:07:07.020
It's like, just tell us what is fucking going on.
01:07:10.760
Does that make sense to you too, or do I sound crazy saying that?
01:07:17.200
We had all these drones in New York, and everybody's like, is it weapons?
01:07:22.080
And we're like, just tell us so we can go to fucking lunch and not freak out every day.
01:07:28.160
Is it fucking Papa John delivering N-words to people?
01:07:44.220
First of all, why don't they have more black-specific businesses, dude?
01:07:58.960
They like to play Domino's, or maybe that's Puerto Ricans.
01:08:04.600
It's like, why is there not more, what's the top black-owned pizza company?
01:08:10.580
Like, where are the fucking black-owned businesses?
01:08:31.000
I met him one time over at Fenwick's here in town.
01:08:51.820
Clint Gray, Derek Moore, and Emmanuel Reed, baby.
01:09:00.440
The founding, the trio, who are also Tennessee State Alumni,
01:09:06.020
Shout out TSU, where my buddy Zeta played kicker over there.
01:09:15.000
Yeah, but my buddy, John Laster, he has a thing called Blap,
01:09:27.120
Dude, this is one thing I think that a lot of cultures and ethnicities
01:09:30.700
can learn from Jewish culture is how to, like, support your culture, right?
01:09:41.100
I think other cultures may do it better than, like, Christians and Muslims.
01:09:49.940
They support their creations and the things that their friends make, you know?
01:09:57.140
So, they're like, we got to start our own shit.
01:09:58.480
We got to start law firms and real estate and diamonds.
01:10:01.680
But they do a lot of stuff like invest in their children, their children, like, you know,
01:10:07.780
I think a lot can be learned from that culture, man.
01:10:25.260
Dude, yeah, let's talk about something else that's more fun, man.
01:10:30.940
But I think I was just curious what it's like in New York City because, you know.
01:10:35.120
You remember how, like, BLM, you could feel in 2020 or whatever that was.
01:10:48.000
Well, it's kind of crazy that two years ago you couldn't even say the word Israel.
01:10:52.620
I mean, you could always say Jews are great or whatever you say.
01:10:56.440
It's an interesting group because they're cloaked in whiteness.
01:11:25.380
Are you going to be able to do an episode of it?
01:11:31.660
It's a lot of work because you got to go out and run that.
01:11:34.260
It's 10 minutes of awkward, weird, hey, is this where the story should go?
01:11:44.580
But I think I got to do this podcast coming up.
01:11:47.280
Well, your last one was killer with the cabbie and the coke.
01:11:51.840
That was like when I started talking about like being sober and shit like that.
01:12:00.880
I remember one part of it, this girl like laying in my lap and like we were just like
01:12:04.560
both like, we both had been drinking or whatever and I'm trying to like lean down and kiss her
01:12:14.320
And you get so close and you're right there and she's fucking, you know.
01:12:28.740
Oh, that's the worst when a guy's getting a Toradol shot because he's fucking tongue
01:12:51.720
I know, but this is like face to face podcasting.
01:12:57.220
I think I've felt for a while that things are turning into the WWE, that nobody's like super
01:13:05.900
It's like you have people who are coming up with like a crazy lyric on TikTok that are
01:13:10.140
now selling out big music venues that bands who have been performing for 15 years can't
01:13:16.140
So it's like, I think everything's just getting weird.
01:13:18.840
It's like you could have like, you know, a year and a half ago sketch that what's up,
01:13:24.400
That guy was probably for two months was the most popular guy in the world.
01:13:29.600
Maybe totally like everything's just it's very strange now.
01:13:38.940
It used to be like you and I would never talk to Harrison Ford.
01:13:43.460
Or get to or like Kendall Jenner, you know, it's like but now we have a chance to at
01:13:54.240
I mean, he's like one of the biggest actors in the world.
01:14:02.080
And he's plowing Kendall, which has got to be or Kylie.
01:14:05.980
And it seems like they're honestly like kind of like in lovebirds.
01:14:09.420
Like when I saw them, it just seemed like they're like lovebirds, which made you give
01:14:13.840
you some hope for Hollywood because you just think like everything's so manufactured.
01:14:21.600
Oh, dude, I'd had an interview post Malone here the day before.
01:14:36.060
Like kids were driving to the bottom of the pool and bringing up mutual funds.
01:14:49.620
It was like Mar-a-Lago or something or whatever they have up there, you know?
01:14:54.140
It was like kind of like this year, like Italian.
01:15:00.020
And bro, they had ducks out there in the pond that were fucking like organized as fuck.
01:15:06.260
None of these gay ass ducks you see at the park like that are just fucking doing dope
01:15:14.320
I saw them polish off I think a sourdough line up in a straight line.
01:15:22.900
And you could tell they were going to be lunch if they didn't land every fucking, if they
01:15:36.940
You pull in, they frisky and shit, and they're all like, hey, I fucking love the thing.
01:15:49.400
Like, when you get like a garbage man or a cop, and he's like, hey, comedy.
01:15:58.820
Anytime if I'm walking down the street and I see a couple of guys digging in a hole or
01:16:05.440
Yeah, or funneling monies for fucking Schwab through one of those fucking Yiddish mattress
01:16:20.560
By the way, you see that Adam Carolla went on some rant where he's like, you know, we
01:16:24.960
hate dudes, but like, who do you think is fixing the L.A. fires?
01:16:28.400
It's just a bunch of dudes getting in there and getting their hands dirty and building
01:16:32.900
And like, that's what's so annoying about politics.
01:16:34.760
That's why I can't pick a side or it's so like Gavin Newsom's got a pocket.
01:16:42.600
And you're like, he's like, we've got too many regulations in California.
01:16:52.820
Well, it's the same thing with America, even in like America supporting like the Gaza stuff.
01:16:59.260
It's like, all of a sudden we're complicit in it.
01:17:01.120
That's, that's what makes everything so tricky.
01:17:07.940
It used to felt like we knew what was supposed to happen.
01:17:13.480
And whether we were right or wrong or, or, or just being fed like sheep, you still knew
01:17:19.280
Even if you were wrong, you knew what America stood for or whatever the fuck.
01:17:22.520
But then it brings me back to like, I think the Vietnam times when you saw those protests.
01:17:26.400
Cause I used to hear about the protester in Vietnam and I'm like, what would they be protesting?
01:17:32.760
But then you realize that there was a group of people who ended up being a lot of times,
01:17:36.900
some of the coolest people who were like, this isn't right.
01:17:41.100
Who didn't believe like the propaganda machine.
01:17:44.100
So it's crazy that if things could even get out then that the same kind of, it's just,
01:17:50.260
And I think the, the, the cracks are opening up because of the internet and everybody's talking.
01:17:54.820
And sometimes there's too many people talking, but you can just kind of start to see the
01:18:04.320
You just got to take care of yourself, take care of your loved ones.
01:18:10.220
It just, you focus, you're not thinking about Twitter.
01:18:13.480
You're just like, ah, this kid has got a shit diaper and I got to change it.
01:18:19.760
So it kind of just, it makes, you got one problem.
01:18:24.280
It's just get this kid to not have down syndrome.
01:18:37.740
Cause you, you like seeing one every now and then.
01:18:41.780
Especially, uh, well they started, I hate to say this.
01:18:55.580
I had always, uh, known that down center and people couldn't walk backwards.
01:19:07.900
This is like the Jackie Robinson of, uh, Downs.
01:19:16.020
I mean, I don't know that the moment has passed, but yeah.
01:19:22.080
They give a shit about young dudes now because they're losing their demo.
01:19:27.320
Young white dudes were always the enemy or heterosexual dudes or whatever.
01:19:31.120
And now they, they lost, they're losing their constituency.
01:19:36.620
Yeah, she signed an executive order aimed at increasing young men's enrollment and education
01:19:42.420
So yeah, they're doing some, uh, catch up right now.
01:19:47.080
Perhaps you shouldn't have, uh, waged war on them for the last 15 years, you fucking retards.
01:19:56.200
Stupid Gillette, toxic masculinity and all you assholes.
01:20:06.140
I toured the sites of, of, of, of Altadena and the Palisades and Malibu.
01:20:14.740
Um, there's a whole bunch of people with dicks and balls who are fucking driving excavators
01:20:25.380
and trucks and operating all the heavy equipment, all the fucking people you hate, all the people
01:20:32.660
who didn't go to college, all the guys with the cocks in the balls, all the guys who don't
01:20:38.420
give you their pronouns, that place has been completely rebuilt by just them.
01:20:46.040
Nobody who looks like you, nobody uses pronouns, no he, she's, none of your fucking freak shows,
01:20:53.280
none of your Admiral Levine's, nobody looks like that.
01:20:56.920
It's just a bunch of fucking dudes who go by he and him.
01:21:03.980
Yeah, you need Mike Rose children in there every now and then, dude.
01:21:08.540
It's like, you're trying to build this, you're going to have places that are going to fall apart, you know?
01:21:12.820
At some point, guys are going to be like, we're not rebuilding for these motherfuckers anymore.
01:21:16.540
At some point, you're going to have a military that's like, I'm not fighting this fucking war for you anymore.
01:21:22.260
That's why they contract military guys in there, so they're fucked a lot of times.
01:21:27.920
But also, the binary world we live in now, everything's got to be, like I said, black versus white.
01:21:33.440
So women hear that and they go, oh, you hate women?
01:21:42.080
Like, oh, these men talking about it, they're complaining.
01:21:46.240
You're like, yeah, women are great, but why can't men be great too?
01:21:56.940
And I think we used to go at each other racially.
01:22:00.700
And now that I feel like racial harmony, obviously, we're never going to be perfect.
01:22:10.880
We used to be divided up in different ways, mostly by race, you know, back in the 50s.
01:22:20.160
And if you don't agree with somebody, they just take it personally and then they lash out at you.
01:22:24.320
And you're like, but not agreeing on everything is, I like pussy.
01:22:38.820
Because I think I fall victim to that, too, sometimes.
01:22:43.420
Well, everything is opinion and what side you're on and what stance you take.
01:22:50.140
And if you don't agree with that opinion fully or one little thing, not even fully, one little thing about it, I don't buy that part.
01:22:58.300
Then they just turn on you and they go, you're the enemy.
01:23:03.540
And we got to just start going, oh, you think that?
01:23:08.800
I mean, I still think this, but you think that?
01:23:24.600
You can just get shit delivered to your house and no one's living anymore.
01:23:32.860
But I think before you actually had to, like, do shit and get your hands dirty.
01:23:39.700
And if something doesn't go our way, we don't know how to handle anymore.
01:23:43.700
Where shit used to not go your way at all back in the day.
01:23:47.160
Like, your fucking kids would die so you had another kid.
01:23:52.020
You would have another kid, like, two days later.
01:23:54.480
And everybody just got along and dealt with it.
01:23:57.040
There wasn't, like, a guy going, ah, my kid died.
01:24:04.520
And they would even name the new kid the same name as the other kid.
01:24:11.100
Like, it was, like, one of those Apollo returning things or whatever.
01:24:26.720
But I think it gives you a, it gives you an identity and a personality to attack.
01:24:38.000
Yeah, and that's what they call identity politics, right?
01:24:47.200
As a white man, as a black woman, as a gay Jew, as a queefy bitch.
01:24:52.960
Identity politics is politics based on a particular identity such as ethnicity, race, nationality,
01:24:57.440
religion, denomination, gender, sexual orientation, social background, political affiliation, cast,
01:25:01.960
age, disability, intelligence, and social class.
01:25:04.240
Well, it's kind of interesting because you also have to represent, like, you have to speak
01:25:09.200
Like, you know, otherwise your group can get totally just trampled over.
01:25:19.060
It's like black trans is more important than white lady.
01:25:27.660
But three Asian Sagittarius's beat one black trans.
01:25:38.440
Yeah, but that's the other thing is we have to have all these differences.
01:25:44.400
But really, when you think about it, we can find a difference anywhere and hate somebody.
01:25:47.740
Like the Hutus and the Tutsis, they're all black, but they just hate each other for some
01:25:57.140
But what I'm saying is if they join together and just attack whoever owned the fucking
01:26:18.460
Oh, these tariffs are getting getting out of control.
01:26:23.340
All the everyday items that will cost Americans more following Donald Trump's global tariffs.
01:26:27.600
But here's the thing with tariffs is the goal of tariffs is that if they if it costs more
01:26:34.720
for people to bring their products in, then they'll build them here.
01:26:48.500
If we don't try this, though, then I think it's a wrap.
01:26:55.300
I do, because I think at this point, even from my own perception, we'd probably on this
01:26:59.380
tour, this comedy tour, we've been in probably the top 200 cities like size was in America,
01:27:33.900
There's nothing coming that's going to make that different.
01:27:38.520
Maybe that's just how society changes and evolves.
01:27:40.800
And we just end up with like seven big cities in America.
01:27:43.940
And the rest of it is just like rural land where people live and have great lives.
01:27:55.180
So like jobs are going away quick and everything's digital now.
01:28:02.320
And that's one of the that's one of the things that people say.
01:28:04.280
Well, even if you bring jobs back here, those jobs are going to disappear because of AI anyway.
01:28:10.400
That's one of the other arguments against against doing the tariffs at all.
01:28:19.140
And then the weirdest thing you start to realize, I feel like, is that you're just a member of your government, whatever the choices they're making.
01:28:27.520
That's that's something that's been big recently.
01:28:29.260
It's like, oh, whatever choice the government makes, I'm a member of this country.
01:28:33.640
But if you if you don't if they don't make you feel like you're a part of something like there's no benefits to be in a member at a certain point.
01:28:51.540
And we can, you know, send out a couple of tweets and texts and get everybody on board.
01:28:58.980
Well, we'll get in there and shoot some people.
01:29:04.480
You know, some nice community place we all know about.
01:29:19.500
Oh, when those pizzas came out, they were so good.
01:29:27.980
And when they first came out, I think they might have had even real meat in them, dude.
01:29:33.240
And someone pooped in the meat over in Mandeville.
01:29:38.820
There were people crying over at the parking lot.
01:29:49.380
Run a research on that poop in the meat over there at Taco Bell.
01:30:06.340
A new lawsuit has been filed against Taco Bell restaurant just months after the company settled a series of lawsuits out of court following a 1995 hepatitis outbreak.
01:30:15.740
In the suit file, Wednesday, 3rd District, an anonymous couple and their 10-year-old son alleged the boy found feces in a soft-shelled taco.
01:30:29.380
Bought at a drive-up window at the Cottonwood Heights Taco Bell, Fort Union Boulevard.
01:30:43.020
You got to put a lot of fire sauce on that turd.
01:30:55.700
Have you had any accidentally with the baby being around?
01:31:00.100
Your keyboard is apparently a fucking cesspool of Flint water.
01:31:08.000
Oh, I've had a little even during a fast one time.
01:31:11.500
I was in the shower and I fucking, you don't even realize what you're doing.
01:31:20.720
I can piss face to the top of my head if I'm standing there.
01:31:32.920
And then you just get a fucking, yeah, I've been fasting and I took a side sip off that
01:31:43.980
Yeah, it's very, um, it's kind of like hot coffee.
01:32:00.300
Probably working in, uh, at that Geyser Park in National Geographic, dude.
01:32:09.420
Well, I think the world is, uh, on fire, so buy, buy some whiskey.
01:32:17.820
Yeah, it's not legal in Tennessee yet, but we're gonna get it here, goddammit.
01:32:30.280
It's all super mobby, and you gotta, like, work your way in.
01:32:32.880
Yeah, there's all these old-fashioned rules and shit.
01:32:36.240
Yeah, Sam's drinking it on Seth Meyers right there.
01:32:42.220
So, um, didn't they just have an issue, too, about Bodega Cats in New York?
01:32:51.600
Yeah, we just, you go into a bodega, there's always a cat sleeping on the bread, and you
01:32:59.900
Bodega Cats make New Yorkers hearts purr, even if they violate state regulations.
01:33:04.180
I'm sure it's a health code thing, but how cute.
01:33:05.740
But they had a rat issue there, so of course you can have cats.
01:33:11.620
New York City's Bodega Cats are beloved fixtures in the Big Apple, but they're on the wrong
01:33:16.880
The convenience store cats that live at many of the city's bodegas and delis look innocent
01:33:20.500
enough, spending their days lounging in sun-soaked storefronts or slinking between shelves of
01:33:24.320
snack foods as they collect friendly pets from customers.
01:33:28.400
State law bars most animals from stores that sell food with bodega owners potentially facing
01:33:35.300
They're probably charging these cats to even be in the city after 4 p.m., I bet.
01:33:42.000
Yeah, that's like as old as time, but the rats hate the cat.
01:34:10.580
We got it in all the comedy clubs, a lot of theaters.
01:34:18.940
So if you were at the Mothership, you can order Bodega Cat.
01:34:26.340
We've had like experts try it and they like it.
01:34:29.260
We got it at the comedy store, the comedy cellar.
01:34:40.980
So you can't, so yeah, if you can't drink, you can't drink, but you could get one for
01:34:45.660
You could watch your dad drink it, watch your mom drink it.
01:34:50.980
It's got a nice spice to it or you can put soda water or Coke or whatever the hell.
01:34:59.800
We want to retire on this puppy and it's, people seem to like it when they try it.
01:35:18.720
You know, we're, we're, we're, we're hunched over.
01:35:25.640
So like Dan Soder, Joe List, all these guys, they got, uh, they got sober.
01:35:32.560
Bert is definitely, he's a Neil Armstrong of, uh, alcohol.
01:35:44.980
I'm just trying to think if there's something else we should talk about.
01:35:46.740
Go through the news really quick story that there's a couple.
01:35:49.540
Trump had that gold card thing for wealthy immigrants to expedite citizenship.
01:36:32.560
President Trump proudly showed off the design of his administration's new $5 million gold card to reporters aboard Air Force One on Thursday.
01:36:43.820
But does it look like a Walmart card or like a Costco?
01:36:55.000
Bro, and yeah, but that's wild that they're selling those.
01:37:02.820
Well, I feel like if you got 5 mil to throw away to get into America, you want to get here.
01:37:09.840
So you probably have, you're probably doing all right.
01:37:15.040
This has become a, it's become the, um, Saint Tropez or whatever.
01:37:20.980
But do they still have to pass, um, immigration tests?
01:37:32.140
If I get to meet him again, I'm going to ask him if I can have one of those as a gift.
01:37:50.000
Sydney Sweeney could sell a few of those to her box.
01:38:28.840
The proposal aims to supplement or replace the existing EB-5 immigrant investors visa program,
01:38:37.520
which required foreign investors to create or preserve 10 permanent full-time jobs for U.S. workers.
01:38:42.900
The gold card simplifies this process by allowing the wealthy foreigners to pay $5 million for a visa,
01:38:48.200
granting them green card privileges and a route to citizenship.
01:38:56.820
At the White House press conference on February 26th,
01:38:58.820
Trump and U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick introduced the concept of a gold card as a new pathway to U.S. citizenship.
01:39:08.240
It's not a bad idea that there's this golden ticket, kind of,
01:39:14.300
They've talked about getting rid of the Fed, getting rid of the IRS, if that shit can happen.
01:39:22.040
And we wouldn't have to pay taxes anymore, like just...
01:39:24.620
Well, we used to not have income tax in America back in the day.
01:39:35.740
They busted more people bringing eggs in than they busted fentanyl dealers, which is kind of insane.
01:39:42.560
I mean, fentanyl, at least you can throw it in a car tire or something, but eggs, you got to really...
01:39:51.180
You have to walk real slow with them balancing your head.
01:39:54.220
U.S. sees a large rise in border seizures of eggs while fentanyl rates fall.
01:40:00.880
With egg prices soaring due to the bird flu outbreak, border officials say they're catching more people attempting to bring eggs in the United States illegally.
01:40:07.340
U.S. Customs and Border Protection said this week that seizure of raw eggs has risen by 48% at entry points.
01:40:15.840
In fact, sharp increases in egg seizures are outpacing Borders' official interceptions of deadly fentanyl.
01:40:25.800
You can just shake a guy and then watch it run down his leg.
01:40:32.400
You'll be like, uh, it's like growing your own weed now.
01:40:42.200
And then you wonder, do the chickens know about the egg prices?
01:40:44.580
They'd probably feel pretty good about themselves.
01:40:47.960
Yeah, imagine the pride they would walk around with, huh?
01:40:51.480
And now Hooters is gone, so they're not getting chopped up for the wings.
01:40:56.700
The last Hooters I went to was that one around the fucking West Bank over there.
01:41:07.220
That's the one where Anthony Davis allegedly knocked up the waitress.
01:41:17.620
Oh, yeah, but if RFK saw us eating that, he'd shit the bed.
01:41:22.680
Yeah, it'd be crazy to see what would happen, man.
01:41:24.620
If they stop Hooters, we're all gonna be mad off.
01:41:28.200
I think, like, a lot of people get mad about RFK, but I'm like,
01:41:30.620
we are sick, we are fat, we are obese, and we are...
01:41:33.880
We pay the most in healthcare, and we're the least healthy.
01:41:41.340
But you don't see somebody fasting that's used into fucking racial slurs.
01:41:45.720
You don't see somebody fasting, yelling shit out of their fucking window
01:41:48.500
with their last, like, living, available energy.
01:41:51.400
Right, but if you yell the N-word, you better run fast.
01:42:02.120
Anything else you want to talk about again before we leave, Mark?
01:42:11.700
She's gonna be upset, though, that we talked about her breasts,
01:42:42.820
It's dark, and don't watch it with your parents.
01:42:49.920
Yeah, I still gotta fucking come up there, man.
01:43:18.600
You know, you shouldn't go around killing people.
01:43:26.840
I mean, I saw Luigi Mangione facing a slew of federal and state charges in the sling of
01:43:31.980
healthcare CEO Brian Thompson could be sentenced to death if he's convicted of federal murder
01:43:35.460
charges in what criminal justice experts say was a rare but unsurprising move to pursue
01:43:40.140
the death penalty by the Justice Department this week.
01:43:43.980
Dude, remember Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Tuesday that she's instructed federal prosecutors
01:43:50.280
Dude, remember what happened with those Epstein binders?
01:43:57.140
Well, I think there was nothing new in the JFK, right?
01:43:59.480
I think everybody just kind of like, it feels like there's nothing new there.
01:44:04.080
They gave them all to these like six, like kind of bizarre influencers.
01:44:10.900
And look how, I mean, bro, how staged, this is the most staged thing ever, right?
01:44:15.780
And they can't be like, today's the day it's coming out.
01:44:18.000
And you're like, well, what are you doing to me?
01:44:27.240
It's almost like you're just, I bet in the background, they are threatening everybody.
01:44:32.460
You're going to be on this list if you don't fucking file suit right now.
01:44:49.940
She was like the, she did the college recruiting or whatever.
01:45:03.940
I think she's sitting in a jail cell, like, living it up.
01:45:06.420
It's getting fucking interesting in the world, guys.
01:45:08.380
If you want to live in an interesting time, fucking, this is it.
01:45:14.940
You like playing the game Clue, this is it, man.
01:45:18.720
You know, it's a school shooter in the homeroom with the AK.
01:45:34.840
I feel like we got one Super Bowl win in 2010, and it's all downhill.
01:45:39.280
But we had the Super Bowl in New Orleans looked fucking amazing.
01:45:46.120
I had so much FOMO, because, you know, we're from there, and it was just—
01:45:57.580
Do you really miss it when you're gone from it?
01:46:12.680
I feel like I didn't ask you enough about your kid.
01:46:20.920
Is it fun having a kid in the city, or does it make you start to think about moving out?
01:46:25.400
Me and the lady, we had the kid on the way, so we moved to Brooklyn.
01:46:43.760
It's on Punch Up Live, which is like a paywall kind of thing.
01:46:53.040
And you have your two podcast Tuesdays with stories.
