I'll be in Chicago, Illinois on April 24th at the Wynn Trust Arena.
00:00:37.200
Fort Wayne, Indiana on April 26th at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum.
00:00:43.280
And Miami, Florida on May 10th at the Kaseya Center.
00:00:53.500
Today's guest is a stand-up comedian, a podcaster, an actor.
00:00:57.480
You know him from his shows, Burt Cast and Two Bears, One Cave with Tom Segura.
00:01:04.700
He's got a new special coming out on Netflix called Lucky, which premieres March 18th.
00:01:09.960
I'm grateful to have my friend, The Machine, here today, Mr. Burt Kreischer.
00:01:28.940
There's a woman out there teaching her kid how to ride a bike.
00:01:40.920
My buddy, it's part of my, what I'm working on in therapy.
00:01:53.860
And you teach him to just glide with his feet and lift his feet up.
00:02:00.220
And we do it that way with feet up the whole way.
00:02:02.400
Then we put the pedals back on and teach him how to pedal.
00:02:08.960
Well, first, some guy who's teaching, you don't know him usually.
00:02:13.340
It was like some dude's dad would be out there drinking or something.
00:02:33.820
He's like, I'll teach this little motherfucker.
00:02:41.360
So now suddenly there's some guy teaching you don't even know or whatever.
00:02:48.420
But the scary part is then you realize you have to steer.
00:02:51.140
And that's where a lot of people just bank right into the fence.
00:02:59.420
My daughter, Isla, the first time I taught her how to ride a bike, I got her going.
00:03:21.560
And then third time she hit a fire hydrant and then we realized she needed glasses.
00:03:42.260
Do you know the feeling of when you cut your bike front tire and it goes like this?
00:03:51.720
So she'd go, and Georgia had a GoPro on her helmet and Isla did it and then went over
00:04:05.900
You've always been kind of a footage family then.
00:04:11.560
I got an Instagram, not for professional reasons.
00:04:16.880
I got an Instagram to keep up with people I knew in high school and college.
00:04:22.560
No one was posting videos of like promo videos.
00:04:25.820
And then I shared everything about my family on everything.
00:04:29.400
I remember the first time I realized maybe I was oversharing is I posted our Christmas
00:04:36.320
And someone hit me up, a guy we both know that we respect hit me up.
00:04:42.120
And I was like, you know, I don't know, you get addicted to the likes.
00:04:47.180
And then you don't realize your kids, all their friends see that.
00:04:49.780
And then you're putting, you're taking toothpaste out of the tube that you never put back in.
00:04:53.860
But that was, we were creating content not knowing what we were doing.
00:04:58.480
Like maybe you were putting things that might have been too personal out there, you mean?
00:05:01.980
I mean, I talked about Isla's period on one of my specials.
00:05:05.300
And you weren't there for the first period or whatever, were you?
00:05:15.320
Dude, as a comic, okay, certain things happen to us where we go, that's too good.
00:05:24.120
It's like, I just, it's a, I don't know if it's like a, I don't know, like if it's a
00:05:28.560
neediness or whatever it is, but she got her period.
00:05:32.040
And I mean, I talked about it on special, but she called me from school and she's like,
00:05:37.240
Like new socks or like just, she's like, you know, new panties, new pants, new, whatever.
00:05:41.740
She goes, no, go to the store and get a red velvet cake.
00:05:53.940
Immediately as we were, as, as the night went through and by the way, I put it on all social
00:05:59.560
And no one, no one has a frame of reference for how big this is getting, you know, and
00:06:04.040
you're just filming and you're laughing and everyone's laughing.
00:06:06.280
And then I live the next morning was like, yo, maybe we want to take that off social media.
00:06:10.340
Maybe I don't want everyone I went to school with to know I got my period yesterday.
00:06:12.900
And I was like, good call a 10 year old or 12 year old, whatever you are.
00:06:16.360
God, I don't know if people got, I mean, I guess people kind of remember, I think if
00:06:22.580
somebody got their period in our neighborhood, people would just start calling them a whore
00:06:26.380
Like, I think people were just, yeah, people were, were more vulgar in our area.
00:06:31.220
I think, you know, if anything happened, it was, everybody always made it.
00:06:34.380
You feel ashamed of no matter what happened to you, you know?
00:06:38.940
I've been talking about shame a lot in therapy.
00:06:41.340
You just said, well, you just said that you, you saw somebody who was trying to teach her
00:06:46.720
I heard something that sounded kind of Mexican or whatever happened out.
00:06:50.880
I heard like something kind of Mexican happened outside earlier and I was like, Oh, I wonder
00:06:54.620
what's going on, but I'm not going to get involved.
00:06:58.420
But you came in, you said you saw a mom teaching a kid to ride a bike and you were going to
00:07:06.720
Like what part, what need do I have to jump in, make it an event event?
00:07:13.600
So I was like, I'm working on that in therapy too.
00:07:15.260
Just like removing myself, slowing down, listening.
00:07:30.680
The very first therapy, the very first therapy, the therapist, like I was just, I just, I
00:07:35.720
didn't like, we went into couples therapy in a good place.
00:07:37.840
We're in a good place, but the girls both went to college.
00:07:40.360
We're spending a lot of time together and you know, and like I just, I, both of us were
00:07:45.000
like, yeah, this is just different than we've ever lived.
00:07:47.320
I've always been on the road home Tuesday, Wednesday, gone Thursday, back Monday.
00:07:52.760
And now all of a sudden, and I'm taking a break from standup right now.
00:07:55.820
So I'm taking like a year off and we're just around each other so much.
00:08:00.520
We're like, maybe we should like, just be in front of it in case something happens.
00:08:07.720
And so, yeah, the first therapy, Leanne interrupted me and the therapist goes, now you know me,
00:08:26.820
I never thought, like, it was like, oh yeah, this is badass.
00:08:33.300
That's the thing that happens a lot of times is with couples.
00:08:35.860
I think you get, if you pick the therapist and it's almost like that's your, you have like,
00:08:39.400
um, you know, like the insider trading on the referees or whatever, you know?
00:08:49.040
And one of the things you said in there was that you got to let people do their thing.
00:08:56.960
I want to like, I just, I get, I felt like I've done too much just looking at you.
00:09:01.080
Like if I look at you, I'm like, oh fuck, I got to sit down for a minute, dude.
00:09:04.320
I get, when I wake up, when I wake up, if I hear something happening downstairs, I got to
00:09:13.600
Like I, dude, I, and I had, my day starts early and it just, I, I slam it.
00:09:18.340
Cause if I have any downtime, I get my head, I get on my phone.
00:09:25.600
I had a therapist tell me one time you have FOMO.
00:09:32.820
You would, yeah, I guess you hear something you want to go see.
00:09:38.680
Um, yeah, like I do when, when you got sober, did that change?
00:09:43.720
Cause there has to be a part of you when you get sober, where you go, Hey man, they're
00:09:51.280
What the best thing that happened from that was at, at like 1130 or midnight, I was like,
00:09:56.600
Um, so you just didn't end up like in the retardation hours, you know, you didn't end
00:10:01.320
up fucking, you know, sneaking into somebody's house through an air vent or some fucking shit
00:10:06.760
or some dude tricking, trying to trick you into being gay or whatever, you know, like
00:10:11.440
I'm so glad when I hear you talk like that, I go, I definitely don't have a problem.
00:10:15.400
I've never known anyone to climb through an air vent.
00:10:17.660
Oh dude, have you seen the, there's a great, um, meth tribute video where a guy shows up
00:10:26.000
through a floor air vent in somebody's trailer.
00:10:31.160
Dude, when I was a kid, my buddy Jeff, he had like a lot of violent tendencies or whatever.
00:10:35.300
I don't know what happened to him, but he would get so angry.
00:10:38.220
His parents would send him to his room and he would beat the drywall out of the walls of
00:10:43.060
And every year for Christmas, they would get the drywall redone in his room.
00:10:58.860
Do you know that they got, they said, I was talking to the, uh, to Dexter and, uh, and
00:11:09.040
And they said, you know, that, uh, a lot of white supremacists adopted that song.
00:11:14.880
You know another song white supremacists adopted?
00:11:16.580
Uh, uh, these boots are made for walking and that's just what they'll do.
00:11:21.780
But the, one of these days, these boots are gonna walk all over you.
00:11:33.240
You ever watch the old school Ku Klux Klan videos?
00:11:36.900
They didn't do, they didn't do a music video, did they?
00:11:42.500
There would be like the videos where it's like the one British guy infiltrates the Klan
00:11:46.120
and he's like, so I'd like to talk to your son.
00:11:49.320
And he's like, so do you have a problem with black people?
00:11:55.420
And then he'd go to like their fucking, their big barn and they're burning his cross and
00:12:10.660
Maybe spread them out evenly by the tables, kind of like a heat lamp.
00:12:21.860
They're like, well, we want to get us right here, but there's people on the side.
00:12:30.400
Well, I think that's why you, that's probably why they burn a cross.
00:12:37.340
I mean, I'm sure it's ominous to see a cross burning in your front yard, but I'd be, if
00:12:42.200
I saw that and I'm like two in the morning, I'd be like fucking sweet.
00:12:49.540
I'd be like, oh damn, we got a mega death rally happening.
00:13:09.540
It's always, and it's a little, it was almost a little.
00:13:15.820
Will the skin hurt in the crowd please leave immediately?
00:13:24.640
You can't use a Bic lighter for a cross burning.
00:13:36.120
If they've built the cross, it's covered in fucking kerosene.
00:13:45.540
Like someone trying to light a cigarette behind the comedy store.
00:13:51.420
Dude, one time I was at this party out in Franklin, Tennessee, and they had like a huge bonfire, right?
00:13:57.860
And so they were, and they had one black guy that was at the party, right?
00:14:02.400
And they sent him to pour the gasoline on all of this huge, I mean, it was a huge pile of six.
00:14:13.300
And it was 40 feet wide and probably 20 feet high this pile.
00:14:15.840
And I was like, and there was American flags everywhere.
00:14:20.300
I was like, if anything happens right there, this looks absolutely.
00:14:25.220
It's like being with your Jewish friend and go, hey, there's something in the back of my oven.
00:14:27.780
Can you climb in and see if you can get it out?
00:14:31.320
Well, that's why Jews invented the self-cleaning oven, dude.
00:14:42.620
They're going to make us take that out probably.
00:14:45.940
Well, unless the Jews actually invented the self-cleaning oven, then it's just fucking.
00:14:53.360
Dude, I can't, so I can't believe you're in therapy, so that's going on.
00:14:59.280
I quit therapy for a period of time because I was talking too much, meaning two bears,
00:15:07.500
So every day I'm talking like four hours a day.
00:15:09.800
And I was like, I just was losing my voice like crazy.
00:15:15.560
And then when I took time off, I was like, the second I took time off, my first week
00:15:24.520
But are you able to figure out what that depression is?
00:15:39.940
Like, don't you worry that burn, like continuing to burn it at that speed would burn you out?
00:15:50.680
Like creatively, I just felt like I was just spinning my wheels and nothing good was coming
00:15:55.220
And so I was like, I got to, like I got done this last hour.
00:16:02.960
And I, when I got done doing that hour, I feel like I, you know how like when we get,
00:16:08.200
you know how when you start a new hour, you scrap everything and then you go to your joke
00:16:16.840
Fucking seven minute stories turned it into a three minute story.
00:16:21.740
My first four minutes was initially like 10 minutes and I crammed it.
00:16:27.020
Cause it's like, you know, it's like my sixth special.
00:16:30.520
But then when I got done, I was like, yo, I, I need to, I need to write.
00:16:42.280
But my first week I'm sitting in my backyard and I'm just like depressed looking at people
00:16:54.780
And, and we pulled fully loaded from the summer to give me time off to do the, this thing.
00:17:00.120
It was, we do fully loaded every summer and it's so fucking fun.
00:17:04.480
So those seen all the pictures of the gorges and stuff like that.
00:17:09.260
I would always feel like such a loser that I wasn't doing it or I wasn't some of those
00:17:15.440
There wasn't, there was a second where I could have gotten you and Schultz were the two,
00:17:21.840
So it was been, it would have been me, you, Schultz, Shane Gillis, Mark Norman, Mark Norman,
00:17:26.920
Like it would have been, it's, it's, it's such a fun group.
00:17:29.140
Like Whitney, Nikki, it's such a fun, big J, Dan Soder.
00:17:34.460
And Schultz called me directly and he was like, I got your offer and I respectfully declined.
00:17:39.280
But then his agent was like, you can't afford him.
00:17:44.620
It would have been cool, but it's like, you don't ever want someone to take a pay cut
00:17:49.840
It's like, since we've been podcasting more, it just takes so much time.
00:17:56.740
That's why, that's why I said this when we were in, um, I apologize to interrupt.
00:18:05.240
I maybe had two weekends where I did something for myself that I wanted to do.
00:18:10.120
Cause I like working, but, um, I like working too.
00:18:24.320
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
00:18:31.320
Sometimes people will be like, you got to get a hobby.
00:18:32.960
And I'm like, well, some of my hobbies became work.
00:18:37.560
They're just more, it just like, you're just super involved with them.
00:18:51.640
Cause immediately I go, why don't we turn it into a podcast?
00:18:56.280
And so let's scrap the, ignore that podcasting is a business.
00:19:00.280
When are me and you going to get a chance to sit down for an hour and just hang out with
00:19:11.000
Or, or if I, if you have something you want to promote, maybe we can do it over at my house,
00:19:16.320
I'll never get a chance to sit down with Kevin Nealon for an hour.
00:19:20.800
Got to ask him all the questions I ever wanted to ask.
00:19:22.440
Danny Trejo, uh, Travis Parker, you know, jelly.
00:19:27.180
Jelly is a little different cause I see him and I ended up spending a lot of time with
00:19:34.880
But, but podcasting, I don't look at that as work.
00:19:37.240
I look at his opportunity to hang out with my friends, you know, and, and, and get to
00:19:44.600
And I think a lot of people maybe don't get as much time of that.
00:19:49.420
It's like, Ooh, you know, a lot of people don't like what you said.
00:19:57.780
I think some of this, why I listen, it's like, Oh, I want to hear a conversation about
00:20:01.560
And so that's what I'm listening to where I want to hear about a conversation that's
00:20:04.800
Or I don't get to hang out with Tim Dillon and Rogan together.
00:20:09.800
So it's fun when I listen to the two of them talks, they, they have smart brains in a different
00:20:24.040
He had this bit about the other day on, um, on, uh, it was a social reel and it was like
00:20:29.920
about the fires and how somebody hired private security to protect their private firemen to
00:20:37.780
It was like all these places are burning, but the fucking Maui peach sorbet was fucking
00:20:44.020
I loved you were doing your fingers the whole time as you were trying to make it fancy.
00:20:50.840
I think if you do this whole time, like you're selling fancy to me.
00:20:55.040
Well, I think I was trying to think of something fancy and this helped me.
00:20:58.100
Yeah, I know this, this little movement right here.
00:21:00.220
Just like, Hey, do you guys want to go to dinner?
00:21:03.160
Hey, if I take my dick out, I think you're going to like it.
00:21:11.020
If you call something Mexican in front of it, it just makes it so much better, dude.
00:21:18.880
I was at a, I was at a, you know, the Mexican restaurant at the end of the Santa Monica
00:21:24.060
And the lady comes up to me, my buddy Eddie, and she goes, would you guys like Mexican hot
00:21:32.060
What do you wrap us in a blanket, hold us down and shit in our mouths?
00:21:36.340
Mexican hot chocolate sounds like a fucking, like when you want a Mexican blow job and
00:21:47.180
I have a good relationship with the outdoor, outdoor animals.
00:21:53.800
Oh, I love that he's, you can play it from right there.
00:22:01.300
I'm glad that guy brought in his own water and fucking was like,
00:22:33.260
The fucking, it's just hilarious to be a billionaire and to go, we're bringing in water and we're
00:22:45.140
And then the firefighters show up to like, all right, who do we save?
00:22:49.200
Get, get, get the fuck in front of Blue Ribbon sushi right now.
00:22:54.680
Are you out of your fucking mind, you piece of shit?
00:23:00.660
That's a fucking, get in front of Blue Ribbon sushi.
00:23:04.400
What impresses me about Tim is he can do his show by himself for fucking one hour.
00:23:17.620
No, have you ever, no, once a week he does his show once a week.
00:23:24.280
Yeah, he was solo for the first couple of years.
00:23:27.600
And then my brain, I ran out of anything, I don't even know, now it's just like a fucking
00:23:34.780
It's like it used to be, I used to have some of my own ideas.
00:23:39.960
You know, I think you used to have your own ideas.
00:23:42.700
You know, I always say to people, I always say to people, um, hey, wait, were you, were
00:23:47.700
you using drugs when we did that fraternity pilot?
00:23:57.380
Because I think Bunda Murray's collapsed, right?
00:23:59.660
Yeah, I think, yeah, I don't know what happened yet, but because the pilot was what?
00:24:11.860
Me, you, and Brett Ernst were starting a fraternity.
00:24:20.680
Yeah, remember that one guy finally kissed that hook or whatever and his fucking glasses steamed up.
00:24:37.500
So it was, I'm just going to set the scene because this was the funniest pilot I've ever been a part of.
00:24:50.020
I don't think I got that good of a deal, but let's keep going.
00:24:52.180
Well, I think it might have, if I'm not mistaken, I think I was, I might have been the one that was like, because I had like headsets in and I was talking to producers and it was all our ideas.
00:25:02.400
So we were like, all right, we're going to get these out, put it in Craigslist.
00:25:04.780
We'll get a fucking party bus, put it in Craigslist.
00:25:07.260
If we get anyone that applies, we'll take them.
00:25:16.500
He had PTSD and he'd wake up in the middle of the night and Marine crawled around the fucking house to check the perimeter.
00:25:22.080
The little guy that didn't speak English threw up in the fucking, in the garbage can and we couldn't get him out.
00:25:32.360
And then there was the guy you championed and you were trying to get a lady.
00:25:36.360
Dude, one dude cheated on his wife and he was like, I think I just ruined my life.
00:25:44.540
This is the best is we wanted to throw a party for them, but we didn't know how to get chicks.
00:25:54.320
Everyone was getting laid, but it was because we paid for them.
00:26:05.240
With tape over their nipples and their pussies.
00:26:24.040
Me and my two best friends are starting a fraternity.
00:26:44.320
I remember the executive producer came out to the pool.
00:26:54.660
And the producer, one of the executive producers goes, I can't use any of this.
00:26:58.940
I remember the sound guy was like, hey, you want to hear something?
00:27:02.320
And he grabs the headsets and he takes them off.
00:27:05.880
And he goes, someone's getting their dick sucked in the bathroom.
00:27:21.800
The guy broke the champagne bottle over the goat's head?
00:27:38.360
That was the greatest pilot I've ever been a part of.
00:27:45.320
Remember when we showed up at a place, we stole that fucking goat, put him on that bus,
00:27:50.180
and he started shitting in the back of the bus, and the only person that would go back there
00:27:53.040
and care for him, he was some like, he was like a third generation veterinarian or something,
00:28:05.140
Yeah, we had, we had an address that we were gonna pull over, and we had already arranged
00:28:09.300
to take their goat and give it back to them, like production-wise.
00:28:12.260
So we pulled over to piss, and the fucking Irish kid, do you remember the Irish kid?
00:28:35.020
A couple of them, a lot of those guys are dead.
00:28:40.680
Because I was in a Facebook group with him, and like the big guy, or like the big guy,
00:28:56.360
Because he would have lunch and then wait a little while and pretend like he hadn't
00:29:07.500
It was just that reverse, he would use reverse psychology with his own stomach or whatever.
00:29:14.540
That was, like, it's like, you know when you discover someone?
00:29:25.720
Like, my wife's friends, their kids are in high school, and they came to one of my
00:29:31.440
shows, and they're like, have you seen Cam Patterson?
00:29:36.320
And then I watched some of his clips, and I discovered him, and I was like, oh, he's
00:29:39.720
That moment, we all have it for comics, and I've heard, I've heard for a very long time
00:29:43.920
watch people discover you when you, they go, dude, do you know Theo Vaughn?
00:29:52.020
And I always say, it was that fucking pilot where I just kept watching you just, like,
00:29:56.680
like, everything you were saying was, like, so fucking funny.
00:29:59.880
That and the, oh, no, that and fucking Reality Bites Back.
00:30:03.360
I've always said that, like, that finale, Theo, you were the single funniest human being I'd
00:30:15.120
When we were all sitting in the bleachers, I was crying laughing.
00:30:18.440
I would have never laughed harder in my fucking life where I was like, this guy, everything
00:30:33.200
Do you remember when Donnell, we were in the car, and Donnell said to Mo Mandel, because
00:30:40.760
But Mo was younger than everyone, so he was, like, trying.
00:30:45.080
It's that energy you would do when you're young, too.
00:30:46.740
You get put in a place, you try to, yeah, you try.
00:30:51.560
He goes, Mo, has anyone ever told you you're funny?
00:31:22.720
And I have a goatee because if I don't, it looks like my real chin has balls.
00:31:31.580
This $50,000 would mean that I could get out of debt.
00:31:35.000
We put a down payment on a better apartment or an apartment in general.
00:31:39.340
Who looks the most like an 80-year-old black man in their picture?
00:31:58.340
That's when we threw those Mexican Cabbage Patch kids.
00:32:04.220
The Mexican ones have been discontinued or whatever.
00:32:15.100
They're like, you have to throw 50 of them over this fence.
00:32:17.460
Like, it was going to be hard for fucking adult men to do that, bro.
00:32:27.140
And she was all geeked up on pills or something.
00:32:30.500
As they went over the fence, somebody was supposed to shoot them down with like a...
00:32:43.320

Dude, my favorite one, I wish they had a video of this.
00:36:36.780
I wish I could find this video, is we did So You Think You Could Dive.
00:36:42.920
And you said, everyone practiced diving all week, and you're like, I'm good.
00:36:48.580
And you got up to the, if I'm not mistaken, it was like the 10 meter or like the 5 meter.
00:36:55.880
I would like to present my ode to Amelia Earhart.
00:36:59.420
And you sang to Amelia Earhart, and you got, and you just had them push you off in a wheelchair.
00:37:05.620
And you had not planned that once the front wheels went off, that you were going face first.
00:37:10.620
And you fucking landed on your stomach so hard, came up.
00:37:14.520
That was the fucking, please tell me you have it.
00:37:27.820
This is what all I did was hit on, I hit on Greg.
00:37:32.140
And then he got pissed because he found out I was married.
00:37:35.400
Yeah, you remember, that's why he voted me off.
00:37:39.060
I do remember driving away, this was in Long Beach, I remember driving home that day.
00:37:48.460
Dude, I picked up everyone in the car, and Schumer goes, I hope none of us get voted off.
00:37:54.940
And I got voted off, and I drove home, and I was like, it was quiet.
00:37:59.340
I was like, so what are you guys doing tomorrow, do you think?
00:38:29.140
If I'm not mistaken, it was that kid Cameron pushing you off.
00:38:33.860
Tell us a little bit about the genesis of the idea.
00:38:45.660
Well, Frank, there's a lot of ladies out there that are missing, and I just wanted to kind
00:38:53.900
You had the ladies, and I think you just lost them.
00:39:06.940
And Greg Louganis is a famous homosexual swimmer.
00:39:13.980
I think he was like the poster boy for HIV positiveness.
00:39:20.700
I swear to God, I just got rid of that bathing suit yesterday.
00:39:31.380
You say that it's time for you to pack your trunks.
00:39:43.440
Like sometimes you ever do a podcast and you're like, hey, can you guys take that out?
00:39:48.940
And so like, now I did this and no one laughed.
00:39:55.680
Everyone saw it and it was wildly rolling the dice on it.
00:40:01.340
And I went home and I got in bed with my wife that night and I didn't know how it was going
00:40:08.400
I might have made it because I was telling everyone I was on this fucking show at my
00:40:41.820
And does Michael prefer men or he prefers women?
00:40:50.040
Another set of bad decisions in my life, Michael.
00:41:25.140
I'm going to show you to you right now and it's probably the exact same size.
00:41:39.340
Do you remember Lunell had two bathing suits on?
00:41:43.740
And she goes, boys, where are your bathing suits?
00:41:45.100
And then we took ours off and then she got out of the bath and we were all naked and she
00:41:52.880
I remember, I think Kyle's mom gave me, or somebody gave somebody, I don't remember
00:42:19.240
I remember meeting your mom and I was like, oh, his mom looks like she could make dream
00:42:25.420
My mom looks like she fucking tells on black people that walk out of the store with all
00:42:43.760
Remember Javier, George, that one comedian left.
00:42:55.020
I actually, that makes, I have nightmares about that.
00:42:57.500
You know where you've, when you know you've done something and you're like, oh, why did
00:43:04.560
And this is when you made a promise to your mom in the dark or whatever.
00:43:12.160
And the more you turn them on, the better you win.
00:43:20.580
And I told her what I do to her, giving her oral sex.
00:43:30.840
That's illegal, too, to do that to your mother.
00:43:50.620
The first thing you have to know is the Native American warbler.
00:44:10.720
You know, you were so good at the whole fucking game.
00:44:24.640
I might have been on performance enhancing drugs.
00:44:35.000
They should put the show back on the air if they didn't.
00:45:08.360
And I was like, why don't we play Leaky Submarine?
00:45:23.640
And it was me, Chris Fairbanks, I think Schumer, Red Grant, and Donnell were in a cluster.
00:45:29.400
And we were crying, laughing at you for one hour straight.
00:45:33.700
You were just, they would say something, and you just, honest Theo.
00:45:38.320
Like, the person you are today was there that day.
00:45:57.660
But, dude, speaking of, what else were we talking about a second ago?
00:46:13.500
Did you see that Donald Trump Jr. or some group is starting steroid?
00:46:21.640
President Donald Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., is the latest to invest in the enhanced games,
00:46:30.180
I mean, listen, steroids are extremely popular in bodybuilding.
00:46:34.340
And bodybuilding's pretty, have you ever seen natural bodybuilding?
00:46:44.660
You look at real bodybuilding, and you're like, yeah, get, that's what I want to fucking look at.
00:47:00.500
What, I think, uh, I don't know if I ever got some Winstraw.
00:47:09.180
Test, there was some, uh, I think, we, somebody, we would go on spring break, we'd go get it,
00:47:15.140
but somebody, people would always sneak it back in, like, shampoo bottles.
00:47:18.660
They would buy a bunch of steroids about pouring in shampoo bottles.
00:47:20.420
So it had, like, this fucking kind of, like, like, soapy, soapy after days.
00:47:27.060
Like, you'd be doing curls, but then you'd, like, belch a soap bubble or whatever.
00:47:31.180
Like, it was, it was really, like, every time you, like, like, if you lift it up your arms, it would, it was, it was, when you'd sweat, it would just be soapy?
00:47:40.960
It would smell like lavender or whatever, like, it was a real hybrid at the time, a hybrid type of chemical we were using.
00:47:48.240
And that was one thing that was tough about it, but it was fun using steroids because, and I shouldn't say that, I mean, it was definitely also had side effects that weren't good.
00:47:57.500
Everyone makes their own fucking choices in life.
00:47:59.480
Look, I'm on testosterone out the fucking gills right now.
00:48:08.020
I jerk off every, if I don't have sex with my wife, my dick's hard and I'm, I'm turned on every fucking morning when I wake up.
00:48:14.960
I'm thinking about my wife, but I'm, if she's not there, like, today I jerked off, she was at, or at the gym working out, and I was, like, or at her trainer or whatever, and I was like, I'm gonna jerk off.
00:48:26.700
I'm stronger than I've ever been in my entire life.
00:48:29.640
I do my liver numbers, that's all, every damage I've ever done to my liver is all repaired because testosterone's reparative to liver cells.
00:48:38.980
Well, are you, I mean, are you still fat or whatever then?
00:48:46.820
Okay, I just want to make sure you're still, you know, sticking with the stuff or whatever.
00:48:49.640
No, I only work out, I only work out so I can party.
00:48:53.280
The only reason I work out is so tonight, if I want to, my wife says, yo, let's open a bottle of rosé.
00:48:58.860
I go, fuck yeah, because I know I was in the gym this morning, hard as shit.
00:49:01.620
I'm going to be in the gym tomorrow, hard as shit.
00:49:09.540
And I will tell you that I felt good when I wasn't on testosterone, but I'm just, testosterone's just giving me like a zest for life.
00:49:17.440
I think, I mean, the downfalls is like my face is redder sometimes, so like I have to get hair and makeup.
00:49:22.720
Like my face can get pretty red, but I think that's it.
00:49:35.660
A couple of years ago, I got, I had so much stress.
00:49:48.700
I did it right off of La Cienega, 50 La Cienega.
00:49:54.360
They take it out of the back and they just put it in the front.
00:50:02.480
Your hair, you've always had the thickest goddamn hair.
00:50:08.280
Oh no, that's me, but that's not my head is the crazy part.
00:50:26.560
Dude, with AI now, it's like anything is possible.
00:50:41.160
Because, by the way, if it's not real, it doesn't bother you.
00:50:45.500
Like, if you type in Burt Kreischer fat, all the pictures have been doctored.
00:50:50.800
And they don't bother me because they're not real.
00:51:03.580
They put all this, they inject all this stuff in your head, but it starts to come down your face.
00:51:11.660
Oh my God, you look like the guy from Ghostbusters through too.
00:51:16.540
Dude, I look like I fucking did a lot of cocaine.
00:51:30.500
Yeah, they give you two pain pills right when you go in there.
00:51:32.760
And then they lay you down and you can watch different television shows.
00:51:35.840
My place, it was a lot of Indian entertainment that they had in there.
00:51:54.340
So for a promo, I wanted to recreate this and I was going to fly to Bollywood.
00:52:02.960
So I could pay like 10 grand and get a full fucking production.
00:52:29.220
I guess they tried it in Joker and it didn't work.
00:52:44.140
I think they have a Bali, Bali Disney, Bollywood Disney.
00:52:54.500
And they go, did you, Leanne and I just went to Paris.
00:52:57.280
And they're like, oh, did you go to Disney Paris?
00:53:02.360
And I was like, because I'm a fucking grown up.
00:53:06.160
And I went, I don't know if I could be friends with you.
00:53:12.480
They went to Paris and then went to Disney in Paris.
00:53:28.380
Stay here and go to fucking Disney for the day.
00:53:30.640
They went to fucking Paris and then went to Disney World and saw Mickey Mouse.
00:53:45.280
But then sometimes, actually, I went to China one time or somewhere and I had to get McDonald's.
00:53:57.320
You go to fucking Australia and go to Outback Steakhouse.
00:54:06.660
I don't want to get up and crack it on and do a ton of shit.
00:54:12.460
I want to go to the cafe, have a coffee, walk around, have some lunch, maybe some snails,
00:54:18.240
And then at a certain hour, I go, let's start bar hopping around the city.
00:54:36.100
Do you, oh, I want to talk about that Stairway to the Olympics a little bit.
00:54:38.820
Go back to it because I'm just curious about this.
00:54:45.760
I've long wanted to do a game show of like stereotypes versus each other, right?
00:54:50.940
It's like the Ronsons versus the Hamiltons, right?
00:54:54.040
But I want to see like the gays versus the Yiddish or whatever, you know?
00:54:58.180
Like I want to see like dark blacks versus bakers.
00:55:03.240
Wait, can I, can I soft pitch you more ideas within the same context?
00:55:09.000
You don't know what the other team you're playing against is.
00:55:12.260
And in playing the game, you got to guess what they are.
00:55:14.980
So like they're, all their answers are one way.
00:55:17.500
So you're like, where's the best place to vacation?
00:55:21.280
And you hear a bunch of people go, you're the team you're playing against said Jamaica.
00:55:30.400
And so then, and then the whole goal is to play the game and try to answer your questions
00:55:34.900
as honest as possible, but try to guess who the other people are.
00:55:39.740
Cause you can just lie and, and misdirect people.
00:55:42.560
But maybe that's part of, there could be a strategy in there that that's how you do it.
00:55:47.700
I think that that's where we're definitely headed soon, like asshole kids, like ADHD
00:55:52.800
kids versus, uh, or whatever, you know, that's not, we got to take that one out, but
00:56:10.580
And, and you put the two of them against each other.
00:56:13.900
But I think there's a lot of like kids suffering from smallpox versus.
00:56:29.400
Like we bring up Theo Vaughn and you have a room full of a hundred women and you guys,
00:56:34.120
guys, ladies, uh, on your, by your chair, you'll see a little panel, um, on a scale
00:56:51.080
My birthday comes out the day after your special does.
00:56:56.820
Um, and then, and then you go ladies rate, rate, rate, rate him on what you think.
00:57:02.520
And so they go, Theo Vaughn is an eight and you go, cool.
00:57:05.640
Now Theo has already pre-rated every single one of you.
00:57:08.740
So look back at your panel and see what number you are.
00:57:11.280
And they look and they're like, shit, I'm a six.
00:57:12.800
He goes, everyone below an eight, get the fuck out.
00:57:16.900
And you're like, all right, you are what Theo is willing to fuck.
00:57:20.420
Now Theo, this is the group of eights that think they're your equal.
00:57:26.100
You can either fuck one of the eights or you can go for a 10.
00:57:30.520
And if you, if you pick the 10, you've got to go to Paris Disney.
00:57:36.700
But if you pick the eight, we're going to send you to Bali and you're going to be on
00:57:40.780
You can fuck a 10, the fucking hottest out of your league.
00:57:45.940
And then you take the two of them on the date and you pick who they are.
00:58:00.880
I think she's getting prettier the older she gets.
00:58:12.960
I don't know if you did it on purpose or I don't know how it came out, but I've said it
00:58:17.660
She did her live podcast at a Zany's and you came by to say hi and support her.
00:58:25.060
She goes, you know, she goes that I was so nervous and I was so, you know, I feel like
00:58:30.080
I'm in a different space and I'm doing my podcast and it, you know, and, and she goes,
00:58:34.460
baby, I was, I just, I had to leave in the middle and go to do a show in Cincinnati or
00:58:44.160
She goes, that's why I love the people you've surrounded yourself because they're real people.
00:58:48.760
She goes, Theo Vaughn came out to show me love and give me support.
00:58:53.660
Cause I was like, I was like, that's what you want.
00:58:55.780
You want to surround yourself with people that care about you and it's just not about a business.

This is why I don't do, I shouldn't say this out loud, but this is why I only do my projects.
01:04:54.400
Because I noticed that I have, for lack of a better word, bad interior thoughts when I'm not in control.
01:05:04.820
So like I did something for someone one time, and the whole time, in my head, I was like, I'm wasting my fucking life.
01:05:10.120
I'm wasting my life, I'm in fucking makeup, and no one's treating me with respect, and I'm fucking, and I was like, I'm just sitting in a goddamn trailer waiting for some 18-year-old to come and tell me it's time, and I can't walk around, and I was like, I'm wasting my fucking life.
01:05:22.940
And a friend of mine said, just give me your heads up, notice this in yourself, and don't allow yourself in that situation, so you'll get a bad rap.
01:05:30.720
It's what they're saying happened with that chick and that dude, is that they didn't, they just-
01:05:36.540
But I'm team Blake Lively, I like her, I think.
01:05:38.500
Yeah, I don't even know what happened, it just seemed like rich people being fucking rich or whatever.
01:05:42.880
But like, but did you, in doing it, did you, because I know how internal you are, and I know how kind of pensive you are, did you, were there parts of it where you're like, okay, if I do this again, I'm not doing that?
01:05:53.520
Oh, for sure, I think there's some of that I'm still learning, yeah, like there's just like certain like ways to like do the script differently, to like certain, have less scripts, we'd have more time to shoot certain scenes, like that's one thing, it's like we just kind of run out of time, you know, so it's like we can't, you know, so you know, you can only get so much coverages or whatever.
01:06:20.440
What else? I don't know if I would ever do the acting again, I would like to do the producing or writing, but I do, I only like to, I'm gonna say, I just only want to do things that I am in control of, right?
01:06:35.780
Because for me, it's just, I don't want somebody else to have control of how I look or seem. I don't want somebody else to have a say, I don't want anybody to have any ownership over my voice.
01:06:47.300
That's, that's it for me. It's like, when I was a kid, I felt like I didn't have, I couldn't speak up for myself or something like that. I don't know what it is. But internally, somewhere in there, that's what it is for me. So it's like, I don't want to have to say anybody else's lines, I just want to do what I want to do. And if I live or die on that, then that's fine. But at least it's just me, you know?
01:07:07.460
Do you ever run into the situation where you get hired for something, they want you to come in and do something, and then they're like, try to like script it for you a little bit? Like my example is like, they'll be like, you're gonna take your shirt off, right? And I was like, I don't know. Maybe. I mean, I don't know. It's fucking 10 degrees out here. And they're like, okay, but it's coming off though, right? It's like, maybe you just come out and you rip your shirt off and be like, kill a beer. And I'm like, I also talk.
01:07:29.840
Yeah. But it's like, it's sometimes you get, especially if you get a little big, you get kind of typecast as, you know, as a producer, they go like, so you'll just like, they did it today. And we're like, he's just come in like a hurricane, like with his hands going up like this. And he'd be like, and, but there was no, did they, do you find that happening to you ever?
01:07:46.000
No, I don't do anything. I only do our own stuff. Like I don't ever do anything that I don't, I don't ever do anything else except for like our own things. So me and Spade wrote that movie. I knew that he's a great actor, one of the funniest guys I know. So he would be able to carry it. I'm like the second guy who like is kind of, we're just, it's like a dumb buddy movie.
01:08:10.480
And so I never put myself in a position where somebody has to be like, you have to do something like this, you know, because it goes back to your reason. I learned I don't do well in that situation. Like, you know, I tried to do a, um, Chris Pratt had asked me to be in a movie years ago and I had to leave once I got there because once I, they didn't give you the script till you got there. And so once I got the script and stuff, I realized, oh, this isn't, it just doesn't fit for me. It doesn't work with who I want to be there.
01:08:36.900
Oh, it definitely was hard. It was a hard, like, you know, text to send.
01:08:40.360
I sent it all in caps so they would know I was serious about it or whatever, but yeah, it was fucking, wait, what, how did it go?
01:08:53.760
And when I watched it back, I ended up realizing I made the best choice for myself.
01:09:28.040
They just moved the lines over to some other guy.
01:09:30.420
I tried to get Josh Wolfe in it, I remember, as a substitute.
01:09:33.040
But they just moved the lines over to a different character.
01:09:35.520
But when I watched it back, the guy had two lines.
01:09:41.620
The first movie I ever heard, a friend did, Tom did a movie with Mark Wahlberg.
01:09:55.440
I was like, you're there for five fucking weeks?
01:09:58.740
I was like, well, I guess I'm not making a movie.
01:10:00.580
And then I was like, I'm not going to fucking sit in a hotel for five weeks?
01:10:10.420
And also, I didn't know anybody on the set except for Marilyn Rice was there.
01:10:13.820
And I'd met only Chris Pratt just through Instagram messages.
01:10:23.740
And I called him and just shared what I thought.
01:10:28.840
But then there was like a thing like in Hollywood, like this guy might back out of your movie.
01:10:34.040
As long as I was cool with Chris and everything was fine, it was fine with me.
01:10:37.380
You know, but that's when I realized, oh, I can't do something if it's not my own thing.
01:10:43.320
And I'm not going to be able to say, oh, we're keeping that or we're not keeping that or I don't want to be seen like that or this sort of thing.
01:10:52.980
You know, when I got back from Serbia, someone had written a part in a TV show for me.
01:10:56.380
And they text me like, yo, I wrote a part for you.
01:11:08.360
But I can just tell you that if I go on to your show, I'm going to have feelings and I'm probably not going to be great.
01:11:14.540
And I'm going to be in a fucking different city for my family.
01:11:16.760
And I just got back from Serbia and I kind of want to go on tour and I kind of want to do my podcast.
01:11:20.780
And I kind of want to like, I don't want to go into another set and then play a, you know, fat guy that fucking want to eat Snort's Coke or whatever.
01:11:27.720
And so he was like, and I was like, and I'm friends with you.
01:11:35.520
It's funny because it's like if I was younger, I would have been totally opposite.
01:11:40.340
I would have been like, yeah, yeah, you're my friend right apart for me.
01:11:42.580
And now I'm just like, no, please don't write apart for me.
01:11:44.620
Yeah, I think it's, I'm trying to think a little bit more about it.
01:11:48.720
I mean, this was like, I just remember thinking because we wrote it and then we, we, nobody wanted to direct it.
01:11:59.280
Can we, for anyone listening, that's how tough Hollywood is right now.
01:12:07.340
And also like they don't want, I don't know if they don't want certain people to have voices.
01:12:10.300
It seemed easier for other people to make movies.
01:12:17.460
It seemed easier for other people to make movies.
01:12:21.320
You mean, you mean two cisgendered white privileged males had a hard time selling a movie in Hollywood.
01:12:29.440
That's the funniest fucking thing that there's, because there is semi-true to that.
01:12:34.280
But, but also we have had opportunities our entire life.
01:12:36.420
But also it's like, you talk to any fucking writer, any writer in Hollywood, who's like
01:12:50.860
Like you gotta realize, a Hollywood liberal writer, man, he's fucking storming the Capitol
01:13:00.000
They're all like fucking, dude, whatever's happening in Hollywood.
01:13:05.880
I think, well, I just, then it was like, well, we have to do.
01:13:08.540
It was like, I don't like thinking that if you say I can't do it, there's a part of
01:13:14.220
me that wants to just show you that I can do it.
01:13:23.920
I have some moments that are good in this thing, but it's not.
01:13:29.040
It was easier for me to play like a disgruntled person kind of than I think.
01:13:32.860
Um, like a dumb buddy kind of thing for some reason I've felt like that.
01:13:38.940
But then also I'm like going back and looking at the things and I'm like thinking of what
01:13:44.080
My, like my mind's kind of like all over the place, but I do think that it's funny.
01:13:49.760
Um, I'm curious to see how it was shot, how that plays out and stuff.
01:13:53.420
So, and I'm just glad that I think when I look back on my life, you know, I'll be glad
01:13:58.600
that I got to do a movie with David Spade and, and it's like, yeah, we funded ourself.
01:14:09.580
That's wild to me because you guys are, I mean, David is a legend.
01:14:22.960
No, I was there for the 50th, uh, I was there Friday and Saturday night.
01:14:30.180
You know, I will say SNL's 50th is a lot better if you're 50 because you watched a lot of it.
01:14:36.040
If you're, if you're 20 years old, you're like, I don't get why these racist.
01:14:42.240
How come Pete Davidson is not in more sketches?
01:14:44.260
Where's, uh, where's fucking, you know, uh, Chapel Rhone.
01:14:48.380
And, uh, but, but when you watch it and you're older, you're like, oh, I remember Eddie Murphy.
01:14:53.080
Eddie Murphy and Will Ferrell and Kenan Thompson were fucking gold.
01:15:06.300
I saw the skit with Eddie Murphy and Tracy, Black Jeopardy, you mean?
01:15:10.000
Where Eddie Murphy was playing Tracy Morgan next to Tracy Morgan.
01:15:14.500
Maybe I didn't pick up that that's what it was.
01:15:29.280
I just thought he was doing Tracy Chapman or whatever.
01:15:43.500
But David Spade is like, when you look at, so when you look at comedy history, right?
01:15:47.980
When they, when they talk about comedy history, now it's kind of, it's kind of interesting,
01:15:52.020
I think, because you look back at the last 50 years.
01:15:55.640
And there's only like a handful of names, but, but, but legends that'll like Belzer,
01:16:03.720
And, uh, uh, Larry David, Jerry Seinfeld, these Eddie Murphy built Richard Pryor, Sam
01:16:11.100
Like there, he was one of the outlaws of comedy.
01:16:13.380
And then when you look at our generation, we're so thick with comics, like so thick.
01:16:17.880
There's so many fucking comics right now that a lot of us are going to get forgotten and
01:16:23.620
David Spade will not be lost in conversation out of all the SNL people.
01:16:27.840
He, he has had one of the most probably fucking crystal clear, pristine, hysterical, his movies
01:16:41.880
Tommy boy, black sheep, uh, meet Joe dirt, uh, the fucking all he's a legend.
01:16:48.740
And to make a movie with him is like, that's the coolest thing you ever, like you're ever
01:16:58.400
It's like, we don't have anybody telling us what to do.
01:17:02.040
I was like, Oh, if I, if we say it went in the script and it went in the script and it
01:17:05.360
went on the screen, if I had to go through a beat on a set to go ask somebody,
01:17:09.300
for permission to do it that way, then I wouldn't be able to do it.
01:17:13.040
I just, I wouldn't, I, I, like you're saying, I just know it would not react well with me
01:17:22.500
Like, like I, what I do is just tell jokes and I'm just funny.
01:17:25.600
So trust me that if I think it's funny, let me just try.
01:17:28.520
And a lot of people will be like, ah, I don't know.
01:17:31.680
I couldn't have, especially like when you see a lot of the funny, like, but also I got to see
01:17:36.020
how this thing is, how it looks when it's done.
01:17:43.980
Like we definitely, so, but I have no clue how it goes from doing the scenes, which are
01:17:49.000
all done out of order to then it being an actual, you know, how it like that.
01:17:54.320
I cannot, my brain can't matric or like figure all that out.
01:17:58.360
But like, um, but we had some funny, but yeah, like Nate Diaz has a role in it.
01:18:15.700
And there's some others, some other also like great actors and stuff.
01:18:18.180
But then we also didn't want to overdo it and have everybody you knew.
01:18:21.560
There's Spadey right there and, uh, and Nate Diaz, dude.
01:18:31.080
And I think I'll look back and be like, man, this thing was cost you a ton of money and
01:18:38.440
When I, when I, when I did, uh, when I did the machine, the very first night I was like,
01:18:47.100
Um, but it's, I mean, it's a real, like when you're there, you're like, damn, this is a real
01:18:51.880
And I have one thing I got on set was ice bath and sauna.
01:18:57.040
There's a portable company and they have ice bath and sauna and they bring it and they set
01:19:04.920
Cause I knew I wasn't gonna be able to go to a ton of AA meetings.
01:19:07.260
So I was like, I'm going to have to have something to like hijack my system to like help me.
01:19:12.860
So I don't, you know, you know, or shot a place up never.
01:19:19.700
But it's like, you don't want to get there in front of a bunch of people, you know, especially
01:19:23.920
When was the last, when was the last time you fell off the wagon?
01:19:27.860
Uh, what's, what's it like when you re like the morning after is it, is it like shameful
01:19:33.900
or do you go like, like, is it cause that's the only reason I never quit drinking is I don't
01:19:40.020
Like that, like honestly, my biggest problem with when I quit drinking is getting back
01:19:44.920
to drinking is so difficult cause you, you're doing so well and you're like, I'm feel good.
01:19:51.700
And then you're like, yeah, but I'm on a cruise and a champagne.
01:19:54.100
And then the next morning it's just like, the fuck you, you let everyone down.
01:19:58.300
Although no one's let down cause I never quit drinking.
01:20:00.720
So like, but like, Oh, I see that pressure of letting everybody down.
01:20:03.480
That's why, that's my pressure is why I'm terrified to quit drinking.
01:20:06.480
So you're afraid to quit drinking because you don't want to, cause then if you relapse
01:20:14.060
I thought you were going to say it was brilliant.
01:20:17.580
Like you ever see, you ever see someone that loses weight, right?
01:20:25.480
And you're like, Oh, you should have never tried to lose weight.
01:20:30.000
Well, you see people losing weight and suddenly it feels like the person that's been inside
01:20:33.680
them is finally coming out to play or whatever.
01:20:35.640
You start to see that coming to the surface, like a fish coming to the surface.
01:20:41.280
Sometimes people lose weight and they're like, and you're like, I like to have fat.
01:20:46.180
He used to clean the pool over at my friend's house.
01:20:48.240
And one time I was there catching some rays and he shows up and I hadn't seen him in forever
01:20:55.320
This dude comes in and, uh, and he, he's walking around the pool and I'm like, and he kind of
01:21:03.160
looking at me, but he didn't say anything because I knew the fat pool guy.
01:21:09.440
This is like, maybe it's his brother, his son, or maybe they got a new guy.
01:21:14.340
So we're out there around each other for like 45 minutes and didn't say anything.
01:21:16.380
And then later that evening I was like, man, you guys got a new pool guy.
01:21:26.220
Cause when you lose weight, you kind of change your personality.
01:21:31.400
And by the way, I'm, I take what I'm with every grain of salt.
01:21:34.240
There's a narcissism about a person who decides weight loss is going to be their thing.
01:21:42.680
But like when you go like, and look, if you're 400 pounds, that's not narcissism.
01:21:46.200
That's just getting yourself to the next level.
01:21:47.920
But you can change your personality when you lose weight.
01:21:53.600
Like what if you like, they're like, dude, if you start eating blueberries, you'll be black.
01:22:07.100
Like I'm going to polish off a few before I go into practice.
01:22:21.960
Trying to say, yeah, I'm going to cut some corn.
01:22:57.160
And suddenly you're gay and you're like, oh, my God.
01:23:01.200
Like, you're just talking to your buddy who you've talked to every day for years.
01:23:05.500
And you're just, like, thinking, like, I'm going to stuff his fucking face with some wiener.
01:23:13.360
Because then you have to take some other guy aside or somebody aside and be like, hey, this is going to seem totally crazy to you guys.
01:23:20.840
But I keep thinking about coming on Jacob or whatever, you know?
01:23:32.040
And then imagine the moment where you meet the other gay guy.
01:23:35.300
You're like, were you like – I remember I had a buddy one time.
01:23:39.760
And he was like, hey, man, can I say something crazy to you that I've never really said to anyone?
01:23:42.620
But I want to run it by you and see if you think it.
01:23:44.480
Oh, I say no when people say that kind of shit.
01:23:50.960
He goes, there's a thing that everyone says they don't do that I do.
01:24:02.940
And he's like, everyone says that if you do it, you're gay.
01:24:07.500
And I just wanted to like run it by you and see if you do it.
01:24:17.520
And I had the weight of the world come off my shoulders.
01:24:23.460
I thought I was gay because I jerked off because that's what they tell you at Catholic school.
01:24:29.640
That was what must be being gay and meeting another gay for the first time feels like.
01:24:43.580
Do gays in the wild or whatever meeting each other?
01:24:45.560
Like a Richard Attenborough movie where they're like, okay, we have at that lunch table two gay men.
01:24:54.320
And then you can watch them kind of feel each other out.
01:25:00.700
What I think is fascinating is the gay dudes who hook up with the gay football player who then is like, you can't tell him I'm gay.
01:25:14.920
Like, why do I get my ass beat just because you're being gay or whatever?
01:25:23.040
I mean, I guess you could, but you could find out every gay dude you ever knew growing up growing up and apologize to him or whatever.
01:25:30.920
No, no, I don't need to apologize just to know who they are.
01:25:37.040
I think in the future you'll be able to know immediately if somebody's gay.
01:25:40.340
My buddy's dad used to get, he'd get like the hiccups if people were gay.
01:25:49.520
No, he would just have like a, he would just like, he'd be like, and he, he.
01:25:55.120
Like all of a sudden if a gay person got too close to him, he'd go.
01:26:08.340
Either that or you're getting the fuck out of here.
01:26:13.820
It's just so crazy that being gay was always like the funniest thing though, too, to people.
01:26:22.880
I mean, I, I'm certain gay guys make fun of straight guys.
01:26:26.620
I'm sure, I'm sure they do about like the way we think.
01:26:29.900
And they're like, oh yeah, I want all that pussy.
01:26:38.960
Like, you ever seen white people make fun of, or black people make fun of white people's
01:26:48.400
But like the idea that they can't understand the way we communicate.
01:26:52.100
Black people just can't wrap their head around the way we simply communicate on a text.
01:27:12.220
And he goes, they go, and his white girlfriend's like, what is H-S-O-O-B?
01:27:28.500
So like everything, everything you can find, everything funny.
01:27:30.600
Like I, like I still think like, like I put my dick and balls in a wine glass one time.
01:27:48.960
I find that to be the funniest thing you could ever do.
01:27:53.120
I used to do this thing where I would pull my nuts up over my wiener, right?
01:27:57.220
That's not where I thought you were going with that.
01:27:58.420
You're kind of laying on your back, nuts up over your wiener, kind of wrap your wiener up.
01:28:02.540
So it almost looks like a half, like a baby head coming out of your body, right?
01:28:07.300
And you'd be like, I'm having a baby or whatever, you know?
01:28:11.100
And, and then people would be like, what the fuck are you doing?
01:28:15.860
You know, to fucking kind of run off and hide or whatever.
01:28:19.280
And you'd be like, wait, what the fuck are you doing?
01:28:22.260
Oh, dude, there was nothing more crazy than being at the fucking library when you were
01:28:27.980
It was basically just like, it was like a couple thousand square feet of you hiding from a
01:28:32.740
lady who's like obsessed with Voltaire or whatever.
01:28:35.660
And you and your friends were just in there being loud.
01:28:37.820
There was like one other person in a wheelchair in there.
01:28:43.000
They're just in there like in the, they're just like wandering the halls of the old internet
01:28:47.140
Like they wanted to teach us the Dewey decimal system so bad when we were kids, the library
01:28:52.560
I felt like, what was I going to ask you about?
01:28:54.680
Oh, so yeah, the, yeah, I wonder if people would watch the steroid Olympics or if it would
01:29:03.340
Because you're going to get people that are going to be risky.
01:29:07.940
Well, regular Olympics are regular, you know, everybody at the playing field is even playing
01:29:14.580
I mean, I mean, why, honestly, like if you're like, okay, uh, what are you going to watch?
01:29:25.880
And they're like, there's a dude who can do 10 feet.
01:29:35.360
It's like, I mean, it's just like, like supply and demand.
01:29:39.120
You know, a guy sprint, like sprinting is pretty cool, right?
01:29:48.380
But what if they bring in a guy that's like, oh, he fucking smokes those guys.
01:29:52.620
And you get to see a real blur of a human, just like a cheetah.
01:29:59.760
When you see people, it's like the natural bodybuilding versus steroids.
01:30:09.400
Like if somebody's, but I guess if they want to do it, but you're going to blow your body out.
01:30:13.260
How great was baseball when Mark McGuire and Sammy Sosa were?
01:30:19.600
And then they ruined it by taking steroids away.
01:30:22.080
And these guys weren't, I mean, look, I don't know what they were doing.
01:30:27.840
I mean, it wasn't like they were like, I don't think they were doing tech.
01:30:30.640
I think they were doing TRT, if I'm not mistaken.
01:30:35.060
They weren't something their heads were growing.
01:30:45.300
It's like, if you start getting on the drugs, then like, you're going to have a lot of forehead
01:30:49.080
monsters out there just wandering around, you know, just fucking.
01:30:54.220
I just wonder what type of intention is jumping into the stands and fucking punching their
01:30:59.720
Like you're going to have shit like just, it's just going to get pretty intense.
01:31:02.480
Somebody throw the javelin out in the fucking parking lot or whatever.
01:31:12.700
You show up and their hands are bigger and shit and they're fucking, they can catch a
01:31:20.200
Before and after pictures of Barry Bonds is fucking insane.
01:31:27.380
It's like, you're not even, it's like, but your skeleton and stuff grows.
01:31:32.240
Or what if then they had, they had like the fasting games.
01:31:34.880
It's like people that haven't eaten in months or whatever and they have to play, they have
01:31:38.880
to do the Olympics and it's just like the, it's like going up two stairs or whatever.
01:31:45.400
Or getting out of a blanket fully, but you haven't eaten in like months and you're just
01:31:52.100
I would, I want to, I challenged, ASMR type of game.
01:31:54.640
I challenged Israel Adesanya to, as a joke, but just, it was like, I would love to fight
01:32:02.680
And Izzy was like, Izzy, I talked to Izzy about it and he was like, I'm not going to
01:32:06.900
It'll be an interesting fight because he's like, I'm not a big drinker.
01:32:11.200
And I was like, I'm 12 beers doesn't do anything to me.
01:32:13.520
Like, what if you put Shane Gillis and, and like, and like, uh, and Izzy's a perfect
01:32:20.840
example because he doesn't drink, but Shane, Shane Gillis is going to drink 12 beers and
01:32:26.620
Oh, I think it'd be, I think Izzy would beat the ever living shit out of both of you
01:32:36.280
Cause it's really just taking both of you guys, the same, which your current levels giving
01:32:47.700
We're trying to diminish his, but even after 12 beers, he still is a professional fucking
01:32:55.720
He came to my New Zealand show and he, and I had said it a couple of times on two bears
01:33:03.660
They're like, yo, Izzy wants to come to your show.
01:33:05.360
And I was like, okay, but I've said some joking, wild shit.
01:33:10.780
I just like guys I know have sense of humor, the cage fighters.
01:33:14.820
Michael Chandler, uh, all those guys, Michael Bisping.
01:33:20.240
There's a couple that aren't, but I just don't think they get comedy, but I don't that
01:33:31.560
Nate Diaz fucking love Nate, Nick, all of them.
01:33:35.460
But, uh, I was like, I don't know if Izzy's got a sense of humor.
01:33:38.720
Like I don't, and then everyone's like, he does.
01:33:41.660
You want to come to my, can I come to your show?
01:33:45.740
So I get him tickets and he comes back and he's with like all his buddies and comes over
01:33:51.260
And he grabs me and he holds me by the neck real tight.
01:33:54.700
And he real quick brings his knee to my stomach.
01:34:01.520
I was like, oh my God, I would have been fucking destroyed.
01:34:03.860
This man is so fucking strong and so quick and just bigger.
01:34:13.920
Like they work at the mall at that place where you get that nice wrapping or whatever.
01:34:20.860
It'd be crazy if he gift wrapped you with his own feet.
01:34:57.400
He works out really hard and he watches everything he eats.
01:35:06.380
Jelly is down 130 pounds and he looks fucking great.
01:35:10.680
And the thing about this is, you know, we just did this as a lark.
01:35:15.480
You look immensely fucking scared of getting some results back.
01:35:18.420
Yeah, I don't know why they picked that picture for me.
01:35:21.440
But anyway, we did this as a lark on two bears.
01:35:27.820
I've run half marathons, Tough Mudders, Spartan races.
01:35:36.920
I just ran Travis Barker's in New Orleans over the Super Bowl.
01:35:44.960
Like big tentpole stupid ideas that never pan out.
01:35:49.600
We called a bunch of celebrities on our, you know, comics.
01:35:59.800
And he was like, I think I need to get in shape.
01:36:02.900
And by the way, type in Jelly Roll on Boston with the Bears.
01:36:07.580
And so he said, I'm going to commit to Bert and Tom's two bears 5K.
01:36:18.520
It takes a while before it starts getting better.
01:36:49.700
She gets like a really skinny, good-looking dude who looks like he listens to Blink-182.
01:36:59.320
He said he got all the small things tattooed right above his cock, too.
01:37:16.120
He really kind of eventized the event because I think Jelly was just starting to really,
01:37:26.740
Like Kid Rock called him in the middle of the race.
01:37:30.980
Me, his wife, Bunny, and my wife, Leanne, and him.
01:37:35.560
And then as we crossed the line, he was crying.
01:37:43.240
And Jelly was like, Bunny said to me, you might have saved his life from whatever this
01:37:49.520
And so from that moment, he's like, yo, we're doing this again this year.
01:37:52.440
So we're doing it in Tampa, May 4th, at Raymond James Stadium.
01:37:55.840
And I mean, I'm telling you right now, it's going to be such a big fucking event.
01:38:03.360
Doing it in the stadium, and then we're partying on the field after.
01:38:11.600
And people are coming out and doing it with y'all?
01:38:15.260
I'm going to do it, I think I'm doing it three times.
01:38:17.200
So I'm going to run the first heat, I'm going to run the second heat, and then I'm
01:38:19.760
going to run the third heat with Jelly and Bunny and Leanne.
01:38:33.320
Second from the right, the one next to the little piggy or whatever.
01:38:40.360
Second from the right, next to the little piggy.
01:38:49.300
I do a lot of yoga right now, and then I'll just do like circuit training, but like
01:38:53.460
find like four exercises, do four reps of them, you know, and do that four times,
01:39:07.180
I can't even push off into a good hug with anybody.
01:39:10.060
People are like, you can't even fucking hug or whatever, you pussy or whatever, you hug
01:39:14.380
I dropped a whiskey bottle on my three toe, my big toe, the toe next to it and the toe
01:39:52.160
People say you're not going to lose your hair, and then you fucking...
01:39:54.140
Well, I tried TRT one time a few years ago, and I lost some of my fucking hair.
01:40:06.220
And I think my hair that I lost because of stress actually grew back.
01:40:10.840
You look like you have a ton of hair right now.
01:40:12.820
What's crazy is that your top hair goes gray before your side hairs, so then it'll be perfectly
01:40:23.820
You had also my favorite musician right now, one of anyway, Stephen Wilson Jr. was on your
01:40:36.240
You want to change my name, got to drain my blood.
01:40:53.340
I've listened to it because I know you like it.
01:41:05.180
I remember the song that Leanne and I fell in love to.
01:41:10.780
I mean, every one of these episodes, I'm like, yo, don't put the camera on me.
01:41:14.660
And did you hear what happened when I did it with him?
01:41:17.280
He goes to start playing, and he starts playing I'm a Song, and I...
01:41:23.300
He goes, Bert, can you please not cry like that?
01:41:28.660
Red Clay Strays came over to my house and played.
01:41:35.040
Dude, Goose is one of my favorite bands in the world.
01:41:38.100
No, my best friend Scott loves them, but I haven't listened to him that much.
01:41:44.040
I've been very blessed with the opportunities of having these...
01:41:49.600
But I've been very blessed to have all these guys and girls come over and play music for me.
01:41:57.160
I'm good at a podcast, like, if I'm talking to you.
01:42:01.380
But sometimes with, like, younger comics, I'm at the best.
01:42:09.660
I'm so fascinated by their process and who they are.
01:42:16.260
And you've had some great fucking musicians on.
01:42:19.240
I mean, I saw Billy Strings live the other night.
01:42:42.960
But, like, you get a lot of access to cool shit.
01:42:47.260
Like, that's the only thing I see that you like about celebrity is...
01:42:51.340
But I noticed that you travel and go see the events you want to see.
01:43:05.040
You're, like, at the fucking Republican National Convention or whatever the thing.
01:43:10.940
Like, I look at that and I go, that only comes with celebrity.
01:43:18.380
And so I think I see you leveraging that in the best ways that you're filling your interests.
01:43:28.020
And I was like, that only comes with celebrity.
01:43:47.740
But we went up to watch Caitlin, Me, and Caleb, and then that's how we met Connor.
01:43:56.380
That's the little girl that sings Cigarette Cardinal with Jelly Roll.
01:44:06.560
I got a thing for the wild on a man with him about 102.
01:44:28.480
I was like, I should not love this song as much as I love it.
01:44:32.520
What did you think of the Super Bowl halftime show?
01:44:35.020
The Super Bowl halftime show, I tweeted about it that I thought it was boring, right?
01:44:40.260
And I only know, like, I'm not a big Kendrick listener, right?
01:44:45.820
And then a couple days ago, I ended up taking down my tweet, actually.
01:44:48.840
I just felt like, well, I guess I felt like, why am I judging this?
01:44:54.500
I think sometimes you forget that, like, people are going to make a big, could make a big deal out if you tweet something.
01:44:59.200
That you can't just say, like, fucking whatever you want without some people having, like, reactions to it, maybe.
01:45:03.720
Well, dude, I mean, I think it, I'm sure you've gotten negative feedback in your life, and you just go, well, that wasn't my intent.
01:45:10.600
And then if you ever talk to that person, they're like, oh, I didn't know you were going to see it.
01:45:13.960
And you're like, like, if Kendrick might be a big fan of yours, and he sees it, and then he's like, oh, fuck.
01:45:19.980
Right, I thought about that, but then I also, no, I just thought about, like, why am I, I think, like, two days later, I was like, why am I, why am I judging this guy?
01:45:31.160
Like, what kind of energy am I really creating?
01:45:32.960
I don't think that's what I thought when I was tweeting, and I was just like, oh, this is fucking, you know, I just, it didn't feel like it was for me.
01:45:40.760
I think that was the, I mean, there's, I think there was a bunch of issues.
01:45:43.540
I think number one is his catalog, his catalog's very big in the culture.
01:45:47.900
In white culture, I don't think there's enough crossover.
01:45:53.020
But, like, I'll tell you, being there, I was sitting next to Jameis Winston when it happened.
01:46:01.160
Maybe on TV it didn't translate, but it was really fun in the stadium.
01:46:03.700
The interesting person's take was Kid Rock's take.
01:46:07.760
He was like, because, you know, Kid Rock's, you know.
01:46:11.020
I remember he shot those Pepsis up when that fellow was drinking them gay Pepsis or whatever.
01:46:37.640
He did this as representation of, like, everyone on stage is black.
01:46:41.760
It was all about, like, inside what they listen to.
01:46:53.720
Like, why not celebrate Boozy, Wayne, Master P?
01:47:04.180
I mean, I'm sure there's Harry Connick Jr. sang at the beginning.
01:47:09.780
But, I mean, New Orleans is like a black music town.
01:47:19.940
But most of the people in New Orleans aren't at the game, probably.
01:47:29.500
What is the real goal of whoever they put out there?
01:47:37.100
But then also, then I thought, well, also, a lot of the athletes are black.
01:47:40.700
They may all, Kendrick might be one of their favorites.
01:47:43.040
Just because I don't, I haven't listened to a lot of Kendrick except for the mainstream stuff.
01:47:46.500
Doesn't mean I don't, you know, that I wouldn't like it.
01:47:50.060
I guess I probably wanted something more that a basic white guy would want.
01:47:56.820
Bruno Mars is, there's no one, there's no performer better than Bruno Mars.
01:48:02.480
His shows, top to goddamn bottom, are the most entertaining shows with so many songs you recognize.
01:48:19.860
Maybe if they'd have done, like, some music over the years.
01:48:22.060
But I think sometimes you've just, you don't, you forget that just because you do, like,
01:48:27.060
if, if it wasn't me tweeting, nobody would have probably shared it or given a fuck.
01:48:32.440
And I don't mean that in a way, like, an ego way, like, but sometimes you're just tweeting
01:48:35.820
shit just thinking, like, this is what I think.
01:48:38.980
I said, I said out loud, we should have been Lil Wayne and Juvie and everyone.
01:48:42.820
And then we were at, we were at doing, I did a show at the Super Bowl with Nikki, Tony
01:48:48.300
And, uh, and I didn't even, I didn't even see my critique come back at me, but someone
01:49:00.900
I was like, I didn't even think, I didn't even.
01:49:06.380
I couldn't go home for the Super Bowl because I was, had to do that movie.
01:49:14.040
You know, I mean, there's always something that's going to make you feel some type of
01:49:19.500
I mean, but then I was like, why do I fucking care?
01:49:25.040
I'm going to interrupt you because here's what I'd love to know.
01:49:28.000
Did you get any pushback when you went to the Republican national or the Republican
01:49:36.220
I did get pushback about it, which I didn't really understand.
01:49:39.840
Like, um, I would go, if anybody invited me to go to the inauguration, dude, like people
01:49:44.480
on the street where I grew up, they're not, nobody's ever going to the inauguration.
01:49:48.200
Nobody from my fucking street, my neighborhood is ever going to the inauguration.
01:49:55.260
Some of these people cannot legally vote anymore.
01:49:57.900
Um, so the simple fact that I got to go, right.
01:50:04.720
People are like, you're not, I'm going to support my fucking friend.
01:50:07.400
I don't care if they're, if I have a friend that went to jail for even something serious,
01:50:11.540
I would still go in, you know, maybe speak on their behalf sometimes or take them bread
01:50:16.680
or whatever, you know, like I'm going to be supportive.
01:50:19.300
So yeah, some of that shit, but I would never hold it against somebody if they went to an
01:50:25.600
So then I got to start thinking, well, that's just odd of that person.
01:50:29.040
Some of that's on them, you know, like I've even had friends that I've texted and they'll
01:50:32.460
be like, oh, it's, uh, didn't know you were so MAGA or whatever.
01:50:36.520
And it was like, I've never ever in my life thought of myself as MAGA, you know, I've never
01:50:41.220
thought of you as, I've never thought of you as political.
01:50:43.480
I've thought of you as just a person interested in living life.
01:50:48.080
Like I didn't, I honestly, I, when you went to the inauguration, I was like, oh, that's
01:50:54.520
Like I would go in a heart, I'd go in a fucking heartbeat.
01:50:56.820
I went to, I went to George Bush's when I was a kid, I went to George Bush's state of
01:51:01.220
I went to Bill Clinton state of the union and George Bush's state of the union.
01:51:05.880
Like I was, I was 18, 20, whatever, 16, 18, whatever the fuck it is.
01:51:10.860
I went to the state of the union, like every time we got a president, my uncle could get
01:51:15.140
me in and I, and I just think it's a crazy wild thing to see democracy working.
01:51:21.280
And, and like, I, I, if I got invited to an inauguration or, I mean, I got invited to
01:51:26.480
the Republican national convention, but it was as an influencer and I was like, I'm not
01:51:31.160
going to, yeah, I wouldn't, I think I got invited as that too.
01:51:33.200
I wouldn't go to, I wouldn't do something like that.
01:51:34.880
I'm not going to go like, go like, I'm going to get you fans.
01:51:37.520
But like, if you invite me and I don't have to do shit and I can hang out, I'd fucking
01:51:46.020
Like if somebody, like I got asked to do some Republican stuff like that, I wouldn't go do
01:51:54.060
That's who would come on our podcast was, uh, Vance and Trump.
01:51:58.820
Everybody was in, everybody was emailing with us, but they didn't want to come.
01:52:03.420
And then you expect that I'm not going to go kind of be supportive of the fact that
01:52:12.160
Do you, now I think Trump, like what they're doing with Gaza and him coming in and speaking
01:52:16.200
on that is one of the most fucked up things I've ever heard of in my life.
01:52:20.820
That's how little I know about politics, but the GMC employee pricing event is on now.
01:52:25.700
Get a big cash purchase discount of up to $12,300 on the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 and the
01:52:33.140
2025 Sierra HD with Sierra 1500's premium interior and advanced tech or Sierra HD's impressive
01:52:41.900
You'll have everything you need to get from work to play with confidence this season.
01:52:53.820
That shit was kind of crazy to me, but then you got to realize like all you could, like,
01:53:02.480
And so I'm still learning about who that is, you know?
01:53:05.060
Well, you should, I mean, this is why I'm saying this to hear it, right?
01:53:08.920
I'm saying this to hear it, but what you have to realize is the people that love you,
01:53:17.180
The people that love you, love you and fuck everyone else.
01:53:19.560
Cause you can't fucking help someone that doesn't like you.
01:53:22.200
That person that sends that text has been waiting to send that text in one manner or another.
01:53:28.880
They're bothered by everything good happening in your life.
01:53:33.160
And they're like, didn't know you were so MAGA.
01:53:38.600
If you ever think you could, I would never let anybody even put a pin in me.
01:53:53.120
They don't even have the fucking group that I am, you know?
01:53:58.180
And I think they don't have the group that a lot of us are.
01:54:01.340
We're more complex than just being like, you're this or that, you know?
01:54:03.760
Yeah, if they said we had a fucking 30K struggling alcoholic guy who's in therapy with his wife, you know what I'm saying, who loves a fucking good brisket and Johnson Brat, you know what I'm saying, and cares about his kids a ton.
01:54:21.540
My group, I love when they want to put me in my group and go, hey, man, you have a problem with your drinking.
01:54:32.040
Anybody that says you have a problem, you're doing pretty good.
01:54:34.460
There's always guys in the system or whatever it's called.
01:54:36.720
And they're like, hey, man, you know you have a drinking problem.
01:54:39.080
I had a guy tell me, I won't say his name, but I'll tell you after.
01:54:41.120
He goes, just because you think you have to make a ton of money and you're on an arena tour and you have three successful podcasts and you're happily married and your kids are good, you think that that doesn't mean you have a problem?
01:54:50.520
I went, no, I think that's exactly what that means.
01:54:52.240
I think that means that I got fucking feelers around me and if something goes sideways, they tell me.
01:54:59.080
So like I go, I said it on a podcast a long time ago and I got a lot of heat from people in the system and they were like, I said, sometimes I think the problem is the person and it's not the booze or the alcohol.
01:55:10.340
It's going to show its head up in another place.
01:55:12.240
You get rid of the booze and it shows itself up in gambling or jerking off or sex addiction.
01:55:16.160
It's like you got to take care of the problem and if you don't have the problem, like if you don't have the problem, then maybe you should look at that.
01:55:24.000
Like go like, my wife was a big drinker in college and quit drinking thinking she was an alcoholic and then realized, oh no, my parents were split up.
01:55:35.160
I need to get in therapy and fix all the things that when I drink, bring those to the top.
01:55:43.640
She doesn't even give a fuck and I was like, oh wow, I want to be like that.
01:55:46.980
I want to be like that where you go like, yeah, I can have a drink.
01:55:49.680
Like last night, I had a couple drinks and then I was like, oh, I don't want to be too bloated when I see Theo tomorrow.
01:55:54.840
So I was like, I'm going to go to sleep, watch the documentary on.
01:55:57.220
Hey, do you think in Japanese Netflix, how do you think they title the World War II movies?
01:56:05.580
Do you think they're like World War II, we were also in it?
01:56:14.180
It's like World War II, Road to Victory is the one we get.
01:56:16.720
What do you think the Japanese, because they have Japanese Netflix.
01:56:24.120
I watched Inglourious Bastards with a German guy.
01:56:34.820
Yeah, it's like watching Django Unchained with a bunch of black guys.
01:57:25.480
Rolling Stone magazine discovers me and calls me the number one party in the country.
01:57:34.660
Back when you were just waiting for the 49ers to come in town and beat your ass.
01:57:40.680
Those were all my uncles and my fucking brothers.
01:57:46.460
Rolling Stone magazine discovered me called the number one party in the country.
01:57:49.680
Oliver Stone options are the rights of my life.
01:57:52.300
Within six months, I get a development deal from Will Smith.
01:58:06.760
I mean, all the things that have happened to me are so goddamn lucky that I look at it and I go,
01:58:14.560
I have the greatest group of friends, meaning like my friends, and you included, are the funniest, most thoughtful people in the world.
01:58:28.720
But yet people who will take time out of their schedule to go see my wife's live podcast when they don't need to.
01:58:39.720
But like you look at your group of friends and you're, and there's more than that.
01:58:43.820
I got two great kids who are really fucking well-rounded for a dad who's leveraged their childhood to make money.
01:58:49.960
And they're, but they're still well-rounded and they're happy and we love each other and, and I'm healthy and I'm the strongest I've ever been.
01:58:59.100
And for work today to promote my special, I get to sit with you and just chat about, I mean, that's like, I'm the luckiest motherfucker.
01:59:06.360
But I also think, I really believe this, you have to identify your luck.
01:59:11.560
You just have to start looking at things as half full and don't like, even the bad things go, that needed to happen to me.
01:59:18.040
That had to happen to me to get me to the place where I could see the luck come from it.
01:59:23.660
I mean, it's like, look at all the shit you've been through.
01:59:31.240
I was, I was like, I hate that Theo had to go through, you know, drugs and alcohol because that's so not him.
01:59:38.080
And that's never been who I know you knew you to be.
01:59:39.980
I never even knew you to party to be dead honest with you.
01:59:43.560
And I go, but you know, I'm so glad he did because he's so fucking grounded now.
01:59:51.940
And he's got all these great stories about the time he got high on coke and locked himself out of his apartment while he was making a smoothie.
01:59:56.220
Like, those fucking wild stories where you're doing coke with Daryl Strawberry and fucking the Bronx.
02:00:01.160
I mean, you have all these crazy adventures now.
02:00:03.600
But you're so like, like, I go, you just got to look at it and go, that sucked then.
02:00:20.400
And I think if I can put luck out there, like I tell you, I bought like a hundred dollars worth of pennies.
02:00:30.160
And I just started throwing them around LA, just flip them on the ground.
02:00:33.580
Because every time you see a penny, you're like, oh shit, good luck.
02:00:36.100
I was like, oh, why not just give that to people?
02:00:38.560
And then if I have a project like that, I start getting really into it.
02:00:41.360
And I'm like fucking, I'm walking through parking lots, dropping them in front of everyone's car.
02:00:45.020
So everyone gets good luck when they get in their car.
02:00:58.000
You have your double down show that's in Las Vegas.
02:01:02.080
I'm in Vegas, March 21st and 22nd over at the Resorts World Theater.
02:01:11.780
Like we've been friends for a long time, but it's so good to see.
02:01:15.140
It's so, man, you know, my girls and Leanne root for a couple comics.
02:01:24.340
And so when good shit happens to you, same with Nicky, when Nicky did the Golden Globes,
02:01:39.420
And it's, man, it's cool when you get a text from your kids.
02:01:43.800
You're like, oh, dad, did you see the fucking, what was the Theo?
02:01:54.840
She's like, dad, this fucking, he is fucking hysterical.
02:01:59.960
I remember watching George and watch Shane Gillis for the first time.
02:02:12.080
And thanks for some of the nice things that you said today, dude.
02:02:17.180
I was like, man, my job today, I get to talk to a friend of mine.
02:02:32.980
I think I'm going to go back on tour, maybe October.
02:02:38.700
He'll be back on tour in a month probably, but that's okay.
02:02:55.780
Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind.
