On this week's episode of Sunday Uncensored, the boys talk about the first trans woman to play in the WNBA, Andrew Bogut's comments on the trans women's league in Australia, and why the NBA should lower the rim.
00:00:00.000Welcome to our special weekend show, Sunday Uncensored.
00:00:04.000Every week, we produce four uncensored episodes of the TimCast IRL podcast exclusively at TimCast.com, and we're gonna bring you the most important for our weekend show.
00:00:15.000If you wanna check out more segments just like this, become a member at TimCast.com.
00:01:35.000Bro, I said in like 2018, when wokeness, I was like, wait until you see what happens when the woke bullshit reaches, we didn't say woke, we said like the social justice stuff reaches sports.
00:02:10.000Well, I was like, we were sort of saying this earlier, but like, do you know how there's like the Adam Sandler movie where he's the scout or like the replacements, you know, those movies and like Juana man.
00:02:19.000I love, we're loving the idea of like a, like a movie about a scout for a WNBA team, but she's just scouting like Brooklyn places where it's like, you know, someone just transitioned and it's like, he sees them throw the, you know, the garbage in the trash can.
00:02:33.000He's like, Only scouting for people that just transitioned.
00:02:36.000Like, the way that they scout for tall people in, like, Africa or whatever.
00:02:40.000But better than that, it's they just go up to a guy who's in a dress and they're like, you want to be in the WNBA?
00:02:45.000And he goes, I never played basketball before.
00:04:17.000No, the reason people shit on it is because it's like anything.
00:04:21.000No one cares as much until it's sort of like people go, it's actually better, and you go, well now it's funny to make fun of.
00:04:27.000And I had a joke about it when I was talking about it, because they're saying they're equal or whatever, and I'm like, they play with a smaller ball, but the rim is the same.
00:04:48.000When I was playing hockey, there was a couple times when I played men's league that the game that we played a few times, like NHL players would come on the offseason, and NHL players...
00:05:00.000would basically it was kind of like no, even if it was like, you know, fourth string guy, it was like, this guy could
00:05:05.000basically score as many goals as he wanted to kind of thing.
00:05:08.000And there was a couple times that the top a woman in the whatever it WM NHL is that what it's called? I don't know.
00:05:14.000But though and she was on the Olympic team and all this stuff
00:05:16.000she played, and she was the best player on the ice. Yeah, but it
00:05:20.000wasn't like she could just dominate it with a No, and they don't hit.
00:05:23.000But she was the best player on the ice.
00:06:40.000And I heard they don't honor scalper tickets, so... Smart.
00:06:43.000There's all these people showing up, and then they can't get in, and then... But there's like this rush line, so all these people actually came.
00:06:50.000I mean, The Comedy Cellar sells out 28 shows a weekend right now.
00:06:54.000But, you know, I just think that... They have a line for... I'm going to open a comedy club right next to the Comedy Mothership, knowing nothing about comedy at all.
00:07:01.000Just, you know, because I want to fit in.
00:07:18.000The whole vibe there is cool, and Austin, and it also, it's not just comedy, it's comedy, it's like, podcasting, it's also like, tech, and you know, I think that there's been waves of that, but right now, there's a huge vibe of anyone that's like, either tech-adjacent, like, crypto-adjacent, fuckin', you know, comedy, podcasting, it's like, you gotta come here.
00:07:37.000Like, it's very, that's the vibe of very, it's like, yo, you gotta move here, we're bumpin', I feel the energy.
00:07:42.000We were just down there, and people, I hung out with Michael Malice, and we had a party at his house, and I met all these amazing people, and they were like, you gotta move here.
00:07:59.000But none of that stuff affects most people on day to day.
00:08:02.000Bro, I'm telling you, West Virginia's where it's at because the state is so in need of industry, in need of, like, economic like growth. Yeah. There's a tremendous
00:08:15.000opportunity to do a free state kind of deal here.
00:08:17.000So you like, you know, they do the Free State Project up in New Hampshire.
00:08:21.000Okay. I think it'd be easier to do in West Virginia. The libertarian. So I feel like it's
00:08:25.000the same conversation we had before and like a different way. And there's obviously a middle
00:08:28.000ground. But like for like Peter, if Peter Thiel and like, you know, Elon Musk and three people
00:08:34.000like we're moving our factories to Austin.
00:08:36.000Like, that's like a precedent and everyone starts moving.
00:08:38.000If, like, some guy that runs, like, a hundred million dollar company was like, we're doing it in New Hampshire!
00:08:44.000It's like, he would just move there and he'd be like, come on, guys!
00:08:46.000Well, I don't want to go to Austin for that reason.
00:08:50.000Joe Rogan brought all the Democrats with him.
00:09:49.000It's like cowboys, you know, it's like the Silicon Valley, they all move there where it was free and then, you know, it becomes popular and then it becomes less free and then they find a new place and it like kind of, you know, there's like cycles.
00:11:10.000I love the creation and the positive, like the hope.
00:11:12.000There's a vibe of like, just like people that want to like win and like, you know, everyone moved to these cities to like try to do something great.
00:11:19.000Like there's just, you know, you're around like greatness and some expect it rubs off on you.
00:11:23.000And then the lady was shitting on the ground outside of the Vulcan.
00:11:27.000So like, and it smelled like pee all downtown.
00:12:01.000So that's proving Tim's point, for sure.
00:12:03.000So I'm like, well, I think buy a house in West Virginia, go to Austin once every couple of weeks, or every couple of months, or a week, a month, or something.
00:12:12.000I mean, there's a- Okay, okay, hold on.
00:12:14.000It depends on what you want to accomplish.
00:12:29.000In my mind, I was looking at these houses and I was like, oh, these people are like, like if this was New York, you'd be like, oh, this is the CEO of like all of the oil companies.
00:12:38.000And you're like there and you look and it was like, you know, some of these houses in the suburbs, not his specifically, but I'm just like a bunch of them, you know, you're like mansion and you're just like $7.50.
00:12:47.000Yeah, he had a gorgeous, gorgeous house, and it was like, yeah.
00:12:50.000Well, we don't know what his house cost, obviously.
00:12:52.000No, I remember around that area, specifically.
00:12:56.000It's like being on YouTube and having your foot in the battleground.
00:12:59.000That's like having property in a big city like Austin.
00:13:03.000There's a massive value to that shit, man.
00:13:06.000We should set up like a show down there.
00:13:08.000A lot of people that's the move is like, you are in the city, you build something, and then you become sustaining enough that you don't need the benefits of the city anymore and you get the hell out of there.
00:13:17.000I mean, that's kind of the trajectory for a lot of people.
00:13:19.000New York is generally a transitory place for most people.
00:13:22.000You know what, man, we got this club and this coffee shop we're putting together in West Virginia, and you guys are going to be begging to come to West Virginia.
00:13:29.000You're going to be like, Tim, Tim, I'm like, get out of here!
00:13:31.000You'd have to open 25 comedy clubs, like New York's one.
00:13:34.00050 people in there and you're going to be begging to come.
00:13:38.000But we didn't move to New York because I don't think either of us are like, Oh, the light!
00:14:14.000When I stop doing that, when I have to step away from stand-up, I do find that I get kind of messed up in the head because it's such an ingrained center of my being from the last 15 years.
00:14:27.000I think that's a big part of winning the culture war.
00:14:29.000This crazy, like, who's trying to control people's minds?
00:14:38.000And I've always said that, like, that's why, you know, people, a lot of times, you know, comedians are tapped in because you're just like, I know in real time, like what normal people think.
00:14:49.000Like, I know what a room of people in every city thinks, like, right now, you know what I mean?
00:14:53.000Not, like, not four days ago, not like, oh, this kind of, this thing's getting popular, this thing's, I know, like, right now, if I say this, do people agree with it or do people kind of go, yeah, duh, or do people go, wait, what?
00:15:03.000Like, I know what's the vibe of, like, your average person in every city, you know what I mean?
00:15:08.000You can really take the temperature, like, real time.
00:15:10.000Is there much of a comedy scene in D.C.?
00:17:05.000We went to Stand Up New York and then we did like a little show right beside where me, Alex Stein did a set and then we all went upstairs and we had a party.
00:18:02.000We'll just talk about this for a few minutes before we go to our callers.
00:18:04.000The TikTok algorithm made a kid kill himself.
00:18:07.000So this kid, he kills himself, and the mom opens his TikTok account and finds that even though her son was searching for like, he was, what was he searching for?
00:18:18.000She said it was like cheeseburgers and football.
00:18:21.000It's not about what you're searching for, it's about what you watch, right?
00:18:23.000Batman basketball weightlifting and motivational speeches.
00:18:29.000People saying they want to kill themselves, people saying good, and just thousands of videos inundating his feed telling him to kill himself, and then he did.
00:19:00.000You gotta force them to free their software.
00:19:03.000I think rather than try and be like smash it with a hammer, you say you can open up your software code so we can see the algorithm, what it's doing, and then you can operate in the United States.
00:19:15.000Yeah, because that's like saying Like, I don't agree with banning drugs outright because you're talking about multiple different sources of drugs.
00:19:23.000You're talking about natural things that exist that you can't really control that well, and the best thing to do is to regulate them to a certain degree.
00:19:29.000I don't think people should go to prison for doing drugs, they should get rehabilitation for doing drugs.
00:19:33.000TikTok is a singular company that is taking an action.
00:20:28.000And then there was a part that I don't know if it was on this exact special, but it was like something about girls couldn't be suicide bombers because they'd be like, oh, which bomb should I use?
00:20:39.000But it was like all that kind of stuff.
00:20:40.000It was like girls can't make a decision and blah, blah, blah.
00:20:43.000But that got taken down up everywhere.
00:20:46.000Women world leaders in war, you know, versus male world leaders.
00:20:51.000Well, if women actually, I actually do believe there'd be less war if women were in charge because they wouldn't have enough money to spend on the war after that deficit got so out of control.
00:21:05.000I thought you were just gonna say there won't be enough money for war after they spend all the money on handbags Women politicians be spending!
00:22:27.000I had a question for Ryan and Danny about some of their content.
00:22:32.000I was wondering if you guys ever run into any people in some of your on-the-street videos who may not take very well to the subject matter, like encounters that might get a little spicy, stuff that doesn't make the final cut to YouTube.
00:22:46.000And if so, you got any good war stories you could share with us?
00:22:51.000I feel like I do include most of it probably but like the truth was when I was younger it was like some of the old stuff was like my because you kind of get better at it and I was like and funnier like when I was young the only game in town was like let's do something till we get kicked out.
00:23:06.000Yeah but I will say though don't you remember like right when we moved to New York?
00:23:12.000So I was actually, Ryan was like, hey, can you just help me film a thing in Union Square?
00:23:39.000You just kind of, oh, if I get arrested, like, Whatever it is, that's what you want.
00:23:42.000Now I feel like, in my fucking 30s, if I was in Union Square getting beat up and I'm kind of popular and people are filming it, it's almost maybe a little embarrassing.
00:23:55.000So that's why I feel like I try to be more like clever than just like, wait, trying to get a guy to beat me up now.
00:24:02.000But back in the day, that was one of my biggest, so this is my biggest technique is, and this is the last thing I'll say, I feel like I'm going on forever, but my biggest technique was, and I pride myself in, is that I used to be a professional at when cops came, I could take the memory card out of the camera and replace it with a different memory card without looking.
00:24:22.000And I had that like, I had that down to a science.
00:25:57.000Because, you know, in Chicago, politicians are allowed to have guns, but you're not.
00:26:02.000In the United States, they've banned government officials from using TikTok because they know it's gonna fuck you up and it's gonna steal your data, but they don't give a shit about the rest of us.
00:26:09.000They did the same thing with BlackBerry.
00:26:50.000This is like a duster for your computer keyboard, and then that's the fucking flying UFO.
00:26:56.000Yeah, I know what the flying UFO thing is.
00:26:57.000That's why I think banning TikTok isn't the right move, because it'll piss off so many people and they'll try and they'll retaliate, not retaliate.
00:27:05.000I mean, to me, just from like whatever philosophy you have, like, it's not that crazy that they're like, hey, you're not allowed to have our companies.
00:27:31.000I think that, but rather than smash it and shut it down and cause people to backlash, you make them shut themselves down.
00:27:36.000Or make it have, like, be an American company that's like... Well, wasn't the whole thing with Trump where he's like, Walmart was gonna buy...
00:27:43.000Remember when they were like, Walmart's gonna buy the American TikTok, and then it was like, Adobe or something?
00:27:47.000Well, yeah, because the TikTok guy, when he did the thing, they're basically like, hey, like, do you, did you talk to the Chinese, like, Xi Jinping before this interview?
00:27:54.000And he like, was like, well, I don't, did I talk to him?
00:28:08.000Well, it's like because, you know, the government can tell their company what to do, so whatever.
00:28:13.000I guess that's a different thing from what you guys are saying to some degree, but... Oh, they own those companies.
00:28:18.000I mean, not wholly, but... Well, it just seems odd to me that, like, they're worried about, you know, the military or whoever... Well, yeah, they're like, you're worried about your secrets.
00:28:31.000But, like, hundreds of millions of Americans use TikTok every day.
00:28:36.000You have certain people who know more than others, and they're not concerned about that.
00:34:46.000So basically, I know you're in New York for the comedy scene, but with how bad the cities are being shown to be getting, how bad would it have to actually get for you to finally leave and where would you end up going?
00:34:56.000It's funny, like, I was actually thinking of this in the context, because this is like, people always kind of talk about this, and there is like, it's kind of like, when I went to high school, there was like, you know, multiple shootings, and it was like, you know, people were always getting jumped, and then like, we had security guards, and like, you would go through a metal detector before I went to my school, and I really thought nothing of it, because it was just very regular.
00:35:16.000Literally, until something happens to you, you're like, it's fine.
00:35:19.000To me, I don't like see as I, to be honest, the only time I like you see like all the homeless stuff and it's like kind of gross sometimes there'd be like see shit on the sidewalk or whatever like that.
00:35:31.000But like my experience is like there's cool bars.
00:35:33.000Like it's the center for comedy clubs.
00:35:56.000He, he talks about this on, uh, this is not happening.
00:35:58.000It's on YouTube, but he was on a subway platform and basically intervened for this woman who's getting raped at like four in the morning while on a subway platform.
00:36:06.000And the guy literally slashed his face, like, he has a huge scar.
00:36:11.000Because he, like, intervened to, like, stop this woman.
00:37:15.000I always say, what are you optimizing for?
00:37:18.000Like if the thing I needed to do, like the city being more rough, wouldn't affect me one way or the other.
00:37:23.000If like I had plans, like, Hey, I'm like, I want to do this and this is the best city to do it.
00:37:27.000I think that's the reason I would make all my decisions.
00:37:30.000I would probably not, you know, there might be like money reasons where I'm like, Oh, it's like this tax stuff's too high or shit like that.
00:37:35.000But like, I don't think I'd make my decisions based on like being dangerous.
00:37:39.000Like if anything, it's more dangerous to be there.
00:37:43.000Remember cuz maybe we're lucky cuz we're like larger but our friend Gavin Matz He was walking to the stand like two months ago and some guy robbed him for 20 bucks.
00:37:51.000Yeah, so there's a point No, he didn't even have show a weapon.
00:37:55.000He just was like, I'm going and he was like, I have 20 bucks What would happen if like you let me let me know you're like you're walking down, New York And then some dude walks up to you and he's like I motherfucker.
00:38:06.000Give me all your money and you go gay.
00:39:08.000You don't walk down a dark alley at night, you don't use the ATM if it's dark out, you avoid certain streets and alleys, and when the gunshots go off, you lie flat on the ground until it clears.
00:39:19.000And then you're just like, this happens all the time.
00:39:21.000Yeah, so there's good parts and bad parts of it.
00:39:23.000When I was in high school, I should say high school age, because I didn't go to high school, there was a fight.
00:39:28.000And then, it's a fucking hilarious story, like everybody from the school walks two blocks to the east
00:39:35.000to have the fight away from the school grounds.
00:40:49.000Seeing the, like, going into the big city and seeing, like, people pissing on the street and sleeping on the street and sleeping and... Fun for a night.
00:40:56.000...the violence and the robberies and shootings and stuff, it makes me completely want to stay out of it.
00:41:00.000Ryan wants to know where your house is so he can come over.
00:41:18.000That's where that bar owner was defending the life of his dad and went to jail for it and then killed himself.
00:41:24.000Yeah, basically with that situation, everybody in this whole area, just all over Facebook, they were calling him racist and a Nazi and they started doing conspiracy theories about the names of his bars.
00:41:36.000Put Nazi symbolism in them because they had lines and stuff like that.
00:41:41.000Sorry, a little off topic, but the fact that in the last week there have been two different cases of some kid who goes to the wrong address and gets killed.
00:42:06.000That story was the guy had a problem with trespassers and had apparently put up signs or issued warnings that he would attack trespassers at this point, which is wrong.
00:42:27.000Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I'm saying, like, she didn't even get out of her car.
00:42:30.000Like, I've, you know, sometimes you're, like, turning around, you go, you just find a, I've done that.
00:42:33.000But also, also, this isn't, I don't believe the man's intention was to kill.
00:42:39.000He fired a 12-gauge and happened to have struck her, killing her.
00:42:43.000I mean, if I shoot something, I'm expecting to kill it.
00:42:46.000The point is, there's a guy going, I'm gonna kill this motherfucker, and a guy being like, these goddamn motherfuckers, and then firing at a car, not thinking it's gonna kill anybody.
00:42:55.000It's stupid, it's wrong, and he's responsible for the death.
00:42:57.000I'm just saying, understanding the full details of what happened... That didn't seem like that much more detail.
00:43:02.000But the narrative people are spreading around is that he, like, Just saw the screen and tried to kill her.
00:43:09.000I thought it was like there's someone on my property.
00:43:12.000And then the kid, Ralph Yarle, was trying to enter the house.
00:43:16.000That one, I can understand being like an old man and like you don't see people very often and all of a sudden someone just like is trying to get into your house and then whatever.
00:43:24.000I don't know, I heard he went inside that.
00:43:29.000I'm like, I don't get like, I could see like an old person I know being like, staring at a gun.
00:43:34.000What I don't see is them like coming outside and shooting a car.
00:43:36.000The thing is, I've never entered a house accidentally because I was at the wrong place, but I definitely pulled into someone's driveway to turn around.
00:43:47.000I was in Chicago, and I was parked on the side waiting for a friend, and a guy gets in my car and then sits down, and then I go, what the fuck?
00:44:59.000So do you just lock your doors every time, neurotically now?
00:45:03.000I don't drive anymore, but- Neurotically, lock your doors!
00:45:05.000Yeah, yeah, but honestly, I was like, what is going on?
00:45:08.000There was a story apparently in Chicago where a firefighter was in his car and his window was rolled down and a guy walked up at a red light, put the gun to his chest and said, get the fuck out of the car.
00:45:17.000He slammed the gas and the guy went, pop pop, killed him.
00:45:20.000Oh, he thought he was gonna pull like a move to get away?
00:45:59.000I mean, something happened like that in the last couple of days where there was some woman in Louisiana, actually, she just like was in the wrong neighborhood and some drug dealers were like, I thought that there's the same car as someone who had shot at them.
00:46:43.000The shit we're seeing in Chicago, it's getting scary.
00:46:46.000What the state senator said is that Chicago's a mess.
00:46:48.000This mob of black teenagers were protesting segregation.
00:46:50.000That's why they were going around smashing up neighborhoods and beating a white woman and all that shit.
00:46:54.000Yeah, did you see the incoming mayor of Chicago being like, A buddy of mine who's in Seattle told me that there was a, you know, they have like the homeless encampments.
00:47:10.000So basically they had all these homeless people that were living in, but they had like the prime real estate.
00:47:15.000So it was like a real nice encampment.
