Heroin is a new kind of drug, but it s been around for a long time, and it s getting worse and worse. I talk about how dangerous it is, and how to deal with it, and why it s a good idea to get into rehab. I also talk about the case of Artie Langie, a guy who died of a heroin overdose at the age of 21, and the fact that he s still in jail in New Jersey, which is a good thing, because he needs to go to rehab, or he s going to end up in a shithole, which means he s not going to get a good night s rest, and that s not good either. I also ramble on about how much money you can get from using heroin, and what it s like to be a junkie in the late 90s and early 2000s, when it was a big deal. I don t know if it s still as bad as it is today, but I can tell you that it s definitely not as good as it was in the 90s or the 80s, and I think it s even worse than it is now. If you ve ever had a friend die of an overdose, or know someone who has died of an addiction to heroin, you ll want to listen to this episode. It s just as bad now as it ever was back then, I promise you that you re not gonna get much better than this.

00:00:00.000 Had a lot of friends die of heroin overdoses.
00:00:03.000 I lost count.
00:00:04.000 I think it's 20 if you include acquaintances.
00:00:09.000 And we're back now.
00:00:11.000 It was big in the 90s and the 80s when I was a young man.
00:00:14.000 Now it's even worse than it was back then.
00:00:17.000 I don't have as many friends, so I don't know as many people dying, but I just saw a dead guy the other day.
00:00:25.000 We were upstate.
00:00:26.000 We used to have a place up there in the Catskills in Berryville.
00:00:30.000 This is actually Eldred, three hours north of Berryville.
00:00:34.000 Driving down the street, there's a dead guy on the road!
00:00:37.000 And I know the cops up there, and I said, what's going on here later on?
00:00:42.000 And they go, oh yeah, yeah, that was this guy, this drug dealer.
00:00:45.000 I looked him up actually, I forget his name, but um...
00:00:49.000 He was a normal kid, but his dad died and the whole family went nuts.
00:00:52.000 They were middle class, upper middle class, but the whole, all the kids went crazy after dad died and became junkies.
00:00:59.000 And, uh, someone OD'd at this party and they, um, dragged him out to the road and let him sit there, get picked up.
00:01:09.000 And apparently that's kind of a smart thing to do. 1.00
00:01:13.000 I go, what kind of idiot? 1.00
00:01:15.000 Takes an OD and drags him out to the road. 1.00
00:01:19.000 And they go, actually, it made things a lot harder for us.
00:01:22.000 So, uh, it was a smart move on his part.
00:01:26.000 By the way, if you see someone ODing on heroin and you don't have Narcan, then you should pick him up and walk him around.
00:01:37.000 Especially if it's someone who's never done heroin before I've done heroin probably about five times great drug but not worth dying for and so I have some experience and and if you see like some new guys tried it often he'll be duped by junkies because junkies become Satanic they get possessed by the devil and they do evil things like trick you into doing it
00:02:02.000 So this guy might have been told he's doing a bump of coke.
00:02:04.000 He does a bump of smack.
00:02:05.000 And he goes, hey man, what was that?
00:02:07.000 And they go, it's smack, man.
00:02:09.000 You're going to like it.
00:02:10.000 Just chill out.
00:02:11.000 Ew.
00:02:13.000 That's murder.
00:02:14.000 We had an article in Vice, Confessions of a Serial Killer, this junkie wrote, and he was saying, I'm looking back at all the people that I showed how to use needles, to go from snorting to needles, and he goes, I think I murdered them.
00:02:28.000 And I go, yeah, you did.
00:02:33.000 I mean, am I crazy?
00:02:33.000 Didn't he?
00:02:35.000 We're all responsible for our own behavior, but that's really pushing it.
00:02:38.000 I remember this dude, Dustin, saying to me once,
00:02:43.000 Hey, man, I figured out something really cool.
00:02:45.000 Like, when I was snorting heroin, you get, like, a bundle for, I think, 120 bucks, and it's 13, I believe, little wax paper grams.
00:02:55.000 I don't understand why they do that.
00:02:56.000 Why don't you just sell the amount?
00:02:58.000 Why is it in these little individual mini bags?
00:03:01.000 So you buy a bundle of mini bags, which are folded up wax paper things, and they have a little stamp on them that'll have maybe a skull and crossbones, so you know it's good.
00:03:09.000 Hey, this might kill you.
00:03:11.000 And he goes, I came up with a thing where if I put it in a syringe, right? 1.00
00:03:17.000 I shoot it. 0.72
00:03:19.000 I get like 10 times the value.
00:03:22.000 So what I would blow through in a day before now lasts me like a whole week.
00:03:29.000 You go, yeah, that's a good plan, Dustin, except your tolerance is going to keep going down.
00:03:36.000 That's what heroin is all about, is the tolerance.
00:03:39.000 It goes up and up and up and up, way, way more than booze.
00:03:44.000 You know, you talk to any drunk today, who's been an alcoholic for a long time, a bottle of vodka is still going to put him down.
00:03:52.000 But if there was an equivalent of heroin, it would be a case of vodka towards the end.
00:03:57.000 I mean, they all seem to either die, go to jail,
00:04:00.000 Which, you know, in the case of Rikers Upstate, you're still doing heroin, there's plenty of heroin around. 0.98
00:04:05.000 So you need a shitty jail, like in Jersey. 0.99
00:04:07.000 That's what Artie Lang needs, to go to a shitty jail in Jersey. 0.99
00:04:10.000 That's his only hope, because rehab doesn't work. 0.98
00:04:13.000 In his case.
00:04:16.000 Or, they get up to $300 a day.
00:04:18.000 300 bucks a day!
00:04:21.000 I used to know this junkie in Montreal, and he would steal textbooks from McGill University, which is a fa- that's our Harvard. 0.98
00:04:29.000 And then he would sneak back in with the books and return them and get the cash, say he lost the receipt.
00:04:37.000 He would do that at The Gap, too.
00:04:38.000 Pakistani guy.
00:04:40.000 And when they would say, uh, we don't know, how do we know you bought this here? 0.96
00:04:44.000 He'd say, oh, you racist?
00:04:45.000 You think I'm a thief? 0.54
00:04:47.000 And they would get so scared, of course, they would give him the money.
00:04:49.000 And somehow, he would manage to accrue 300 bucks a day.
00:04:52.000 For what? 0.98
00:04:57.000 Well, it does feel like you're receiving fellatio from 130 supermodels at once. 0.97
00:05:05.000 It's like a million hugs. 0.94
00:05:07.000 You know that phase when you're just falling asleep and Abe Lincoln is talking to a squirrel?
00:05:12.000 And you go, uh-oh, that doesn't make any sense.
00:05:14.000 I must be falling asleep.
00:05:15.000 It's that.
00:05:16.000 Spread out.
00:05:20.000 Which is awesome.
00:05:21.000 It's sort of like right after you come, that sort of... where you can hear the blood rushing behind your ears.
00:05:28.000 It's that for an hour.
00:05:32.000 But the odds are very high you're gonna die.
00:05:36.000 So is it worth it? 1.00
00:05:37.000 The way I always describe it to newcomers is, say you could have sex with two chicks, right? 1.00
00:05:43.000 One is a nine and has AIDS. 1.00
00:05:46.000 And the other's a 7.9 and doesn't. 1.00
00:05:49.000 Who would you like to have sex with, sir? 0.99
00:05:51.000 I'm gonna go with the 7.9. 0.99
00:05:53.000 And by 7.9, I mean you can synthesize heroin.
00:05:57.000 Pretty good.
00:05:58.000 With like Xanax.
00:05:59.000 I've- I've made heroin in my brain with pot and booze.
00:06:05.000 I know that people don't believe me when I say that.
00:06:07.000 It sounds like a poor man's- beyond a poor man's smack.
00:06:11.000 But no, you'd have like a couple joints.
00:06:14.000 He'd have some beer, you'd maybe do a shot, and your head, your brain's like a frying pan, and you're just like, psst, frying up a wasted omelette, and you're just like, this needs a little more pepper.
00:06:24.000 Maybe even do a bump.
00:06:27.000 And you get 78% as good as heroin.
00:06:31.000 Yeah, but you can never reproduce heroin, man. 0.98
00:06:33.000 Yeah, I know, but I don't want to sleep with a chick that has AIDS. 1.00
00:06:38.000 Remember there was this other dude that was with the guy who came up with the brilliant syringe idea.
00:06:44.000 He, by the way, him and his buddy JP, they lived, which is rare. 0.65
00:06:50.000 But those guys, those guys were just gross. 0.59
00:06:56.000 Like it makes you into a sleeping gross dude. 0.99
00:06:59.000 I think they used to suck each other off. 0.99
00:07:02.000 These were straight guys. 0.99
00:07:04.000 And they wouldn't have erect penises, but they would just sort of be floating around on the couch and maybe... Well, like weird animals. 0.99
00:07:14.000 You know, like an animal will sniff another animal's butt? 0.99
00:07:17.000 That's what you get up to on heroin.
00:07:20.000 I never did that, don't get me wrong. 1.00
00:07:23.000 But I remember him going, yeah, he's my little bitch. 1.00
00:07:25.000 He sucks my dick. 1.00
00:07:27.000 I thought, God, you guys suck. 1.00
00:07:30.000 I remember he was saying, after he got clean, he said, yeah, I was thinking back. 0.99
00:07:36.000 Me and my girlfriend were looking at our computer, and it kept crashing.
00:07:41.000 And I said,
00:07:43.000 Maybe you have a font conflict?
00:07:45.000 Did you check the fonts? 0.99
00:07:47.000 And he said, as I was saying that, I realized I had my thumb all the way up my ass. 0.99
00:07:52.000 Just like sitting there. 0.99
00:07:54.000 And don't think of that in a sexual porn hub way. 0.99
00:07:57.000 That's just sort of like, imagine how you would poo your pants. 0.98
00:08:00.000 Which they do all the time!
00:08:02.000 The Pakistani dude who used to steal the textbooks, he told me he would go to N.A. 1.00
00:08:07.000 and he goes, like N.A.
00:08:09.000 for coke is, you know, I got up to all kinds of tricks.
00:08:12.000 I used to get an eight ball and I'd be in the hotel.
00:08:16.000 This is a true story from a coke head I knew. 1.00
00:08:18.000 He was actually my literary agent for a long time. 0.98
00:08:21.000 Uh, and he said, I would get so paranoid that I would get a prostitute, I'd buy a prostitute, you know, on the phone. 0.94
00:08:27.000 This was a long time ago. 0.95
00:08:29.000 And, uh, by the time she got up, I will have done like five more lines.
00:08:34.000 So I'd be so scared that she was coming to hurt me or that she was a cop or something that I would open the door a crack, give her her money, and then close the door again. 0.64
00:08:44.000 She probably thinks, great gig. 1.00
00:08:45.000 I think a lot of prostitutes in New York bring coke with them and will give it for free because they want you to be limp so they don't have to fuck you. 1.00
00:08:54.000 Sorry folks, this podcast is pretty dark. 1.00
00:08:58.000 It's all about death and heroin, and heroin is really just death.
00:09:02.000 You're hanging out with death.
00:09:04.000 Death sits on your shoulders.
00:09:06.000 And he goes, Don't fear the reaper.
00:09:10.000 Come on, babe. 1.00
00:09:11.000 Let's just die. 1.00
00:09:13.000 Don't be so scared of dying. 0.99
00:09:15.000 It's not so bad.
00:09:17.000 Which is a real cathartic release.
00:09:19.000 Because when you think about it, what is our existence but a perpetual fear of death?
00:09:25.000 Why do we breed to live forever?
00:09:29.000 Why do we get married so we can breed? 1.00
00:09:33.000 Why are we scared at night?
00:09:34.000 Because we don't want to die.
00:09:36.000 Why do we eat?
00:09:37.000 Why do we not get so wasted we pass out in the middle of the road?
00:09:41.000 Why do we put on our seatbelts?
00:09:42.000 We don't want to die.
00:09:43.000 We're perpetually followed by a fear of death.
00:09:47.000 It's the sword of Damocles that hangs over our head.
00:09:51.000 And, uh, to be freed from that is amazing.
00:09:55.000 Like, look at the pygmy shrew.
00:09:57.000 It's got to eat something like five times its weight every day.
00:10:00.000 Very uppity little shrew. 0.75
00:10:01.000 Always jumping around, always scared.
00:10:04.000 All animals are like that.
00:10:05.000 We're probably the least scared of dying because we set up this awesome thing with the house and a car that can protect us and helmets and stuff.
00:10:12.000 But poor animals, they're constantly in fear.
00:10:14.000 If you could take that away just for a second.
00:10:18.000 Of course, when they get close to the OD, like my friend Dash Snow, I can just see this little Rasputin on his shoulder going, Dash, you're dying.
00:10:28.000 And Dash goes, well, I got a kid, though.
00:10:30.000 I got my little kid.
00:10:33.000 And he goes, yeah, whatever.
00:10:35.000 She'll be fine.
00:10:35.000 It's Dash.
00:10:37.000 It's not a big deal.
00:10:38.000 Yeah, OK. 1.00
00:10:40.000 And then you just hold Satan's hand and walk off into the abyss and die. 1.00
00:10:40.000 Let's go. 1.00
00:10:47.000 And I think Dash, you can look him up, Dash Snow, he was the enfant terrible of the early aughts in New York and sort of defined cool for that particular epoch, that decade.
00:10:59.000 New York is run by decades.
00:11:02.000 There was the beatnik decade, there was the punk CBGB's decade, there was the early aughts Iraq Dash Snow decade that Vice was a part of.
00:11:10.000 And he ran, he was the Sid Vicious of that particular epoch.
00:11:14.000 But, you know, a lot of people now don't know who he is, and he could have been a dad with his kid.
00:11:18.000 But I can't help but think, along with the heroin whispering into his ear, going, we can do it, let's just go.
00:11:24.000 I think a lot of it was him wanting to die an icon.
00:11:27.000 You know, he- I did coke with his dad once, but for the most part, his dad was not around.
00:11:32.000 And they sent him to, you know, reform school at a young age, even though he was incredibly wealthy.
00:11:37.000 And eventually he just sort of moved out.
00:11:40.000 I think he moved out when he was like 16 in New York City.
00:11:44.000 You're alone writing your BMX getting tattoos and doing coke as a little kid.
00:11:50.000 But. 1.00
00:11:56.000 It really, it kills you, it takes away your reason to live, it turns you into a liar. 1.00
00:12:02.000 Junkies are some of the worst, shittiest, scumbag liars. 1.00
00:12:07.000 My entire adolescence and early 20s was counting my CDs and realizing that my roommate had a junkie over, my roommate had become a junkie, and stole my CDs. 0.99
00:12:21.000 But as far as making you super gay and lame, that guy JP, who had his thumb up his butt, I've told this story a few times, but it's the gayest thing, I don't mean homosexual, but this is the gayest moment of my life, the gayest thing I've ever heard. 0.97
00:12:37.000 He invites us over for a waffle party. 0.99
00:12:39.000 Pretty gay. 0.97
00:12:41.000 And we go, whatever. 0.93
00:12:42.000 You know, it's Saturday.
00:12:44.000 We don't have kids.
00:12:45.000 We're not married.
00:12:46.000 We're young.
00:12:47.000 We're 30 years old in New York City. 1.00
00:12:48.000 Yeah, I'll come to your fucking waffle party. 1.00
00:12:51.000 It's better than lining up for an hour for brunch. 0.99
00:12:54.000 That was such a tradition back before we had kids. 0.99
00:12:56.000 You wake up hungover at 10, 11, maybe by noon or 1, you get your shit together enough to walk out of the house, and then you line up at some place like 7A in the East Village for one hour to get some fucking eggs. 0.99
00:13:12.000 I'll make you some eggs. 0.99
00:13:14.000 Why are we lining up for eggs?
00:13:15.000 They're not gold.
00:13:17.000 It's not Venezuela.
00:13:18.000 They're not rare.
00:13:19.000 But that was just what you did.
00:13:22.000 Anyway, so he invites us over for a waffle party.
00:13:25.000 That's a contradiction, by the way, a waffle party. 0.99
00:13:28.000 And he has this stupid Hello Kitty waffle machine that makes one waffle at a time. 1.00
00:13:33.000 All right. 1.00
00:13:34.000 And he's got some batteries bought at the local, you know, pharmacy.
00:13:38.000 This is what he came up with on Smack with him and his girlfriend.
00:13:40.000 Like, let's have a waffle party.
00:13:44.000 And he has a Hello Kitty coffee maker, too.
00:13:53.000 It makes you one cup at a time.
00:13:54.000 Great.
00:13:55.000 So there's about five or six of us there.
00:13:57.000 And he shows up.
00:13:59.000 I show up.
00:13:59.000 And he's like, hey, man.
00:14:00.000 And junkies do this thing where they think we don't know they're on heroin.
00:14:04.000 They're like, hi, what's going on?
00:14:05.000 Their eyes are half closed.
00:14:07.000 Hey, welcome to the waffle party, man.
00:14:10.000 I'm fine.
00:14:12.000 I remember one time he showed up at Doc Holidays, and he had two large coffees.
00:14:17.000 He's coming to meet me to drink beer, and he has two large coffees, one in each hand.
00:14:21.000 And I go, dude, what are you doing?
00:14:23.000 He goes, oh, I'm really tired.
00:14:25.000 Really tired, so I have coffees.
00:14:29.000 I go, yeah, I know you're trying to pretend to be a human being, you junky reptile, but humans will buy a coffee, then finish it, and if they really want another, which is rare, you rarely want a coffee after a large coffee, you go and get another one.
00:14:42.000 We don't double fist, so you're not doing a good human impersonation. 0.99
00:14:47.000 But we go to his place, and this is the same woman who had a font conflict, and he had his thumb up his ass, literally. 0.95
00:14:55.000 And he's messing with the Hello Kitty coffee maker. 0.94
00:14:58.000 He can't really work it out and he's staring at it.
00:15:01.000 And I go, I'm looking at this waffle.
00:15:02.000 It's just a plain waffle.
00:15:03.000 And I go, do you have butter?
00:15:04.000 Do you have syrup?
00:15:06.000 What's going on here?
00:15:06.000 Do you have cutlery?
00:15:07.000 What's going on with this shitty, stupid party that you came up with? 1.00
00:15:10.000 I... 1.00
00:15:11.000 And he goes, oh yeah, we got calorie and everything.
00:15:14.000 Oh, we don't have butter.
00:15:15.000 Honey, we don't have butter.
00:15:17.000 And she goes, no problem, I'll get it.
00:15:19.000 That fake upbeat thing that, you know, drunk people do this too when they're with their kids or their parents or something.
00:15:26.000 Hi!
00:15:27.000 No, I didn't take the car drunk.
00:15:29.000 I don't, what?
00:15:30.000 No, I had maybe two beers.
00:15:33.000 So she's like, yeah, okay, I'll go get butter.
00:15:36.000 And then she does that junkie thing they do where they put their sunglasses on 1.00
00:15:41.000 And so she's walking out, and he's still messing with this thing.
00:15:46.000 It's so easy.
00:15:47.000 It's literally made for kids.
00:15:48.000 Sorry to overuse the word literally this ep, but it's for babies, and you can't work a Hello Kitty coffee maker?
00:15:55.000 He's messing with it in that junky, slow-mo way, and you just want to slap him and go, give me that thing!
00:16:00.000 This goes in here, and the filter goes above it in the Hello Kitty face. 0.89
00:16:05.000 We're good to go.
00:16:21.000 She walks by him and goes, okay, I'll be here.
00:16:24.000 Yeah, I know you'll be here.
00:16:25.000 And then, I'll never get over this, it's the worst thing I've ever seen, including seeing someone hit by a car and dying.
00:16:32.000 He's messing with the Hello Kitty coffee maker and without looking up, so his mind is still focused on this weird handle for the coffee maker, he yells, I like your new sunglasses!
00:16:47.000 Is that the worst thing you've ever heard?
00:16:50.000 It might grow on you.
00:16:51.000 I like your new sunglasses!
00:16:54.000 Like without looking up, still focused on the coffee machine.
00:16:58.000 I told Wendy Mullen that story of Built by Wendy and she goes, I woke up the next morning, first thing I said when my eyes opened was, I like your new sunglasses!
00:17:09.000 It really does bring out the worst in people.
00:17:12.000 It even brings out the worst in people who are very tangentially associated.
00:17:16.000 This is a bit of a tangent, but when I was getting my arm tattoos, the ones on my forearms with all the writing, it was done by a celebrity tattooer to the stars, Scott Campbell, married to Lake Bell.
00:17:28.000 I don't think he likes me anymore because of Trump, but we were friends for a long time.
00:17:33.000 And, uh, he's also friends with celebs, which I've always been kind of dubious of.
00:17:39.000 Isn't it kind of suspicious that you're friends with, like, Heath Ledger and Eva Mendes and all these different people that the only thing they have in common is that they're famous?
00:17:49.000 Isn't that kind of a weird coinkydink when you're not in the business? 1.00
00:17:52.000 Johnny Depp?
00:17:53.000 Anyway, that's me stabbing my ex-friends in the back when they don't like me anymore.
00:17:58.000 Um, so he's tattooing me.
00:18:01.000 And this guy comes up and he goes, I gotta talk to you outside.
00:18:05.000 What?
00:18:07.000 I'm doing a tattoo, dude.
00:18:08.000 No, this is important.
00:18:10.000 He was kind of a Miles McInnes guy.
00:18:12.000 This is one of the assistants.
00:18:13.000 You know, tattoo shops, they have all the tattooists, and then there's the guy who takes the appointments and says, can you sit down?
00:18:18.000 They're not really a secretary.
00:18:20.000 They're more like a gopher, and they're a jack of all trades.
00:18:23.000 They unclog the toilet, and they're just sort of like a manager.
00:18:26.000 Yeah, that's the word, Gavin.
00:18:28.000 Pretending it's some weird job you never heard of.
00:18:30.000 Yeah, manager.
00:18:31.000 You know, every business in the world's.
00:18:35.000 Uh, worlds, that's plural.
00:18:36.000 I'm using outer space too.
00:18:38.000 I'm using managers from the Star Wars bar, the canteen.
00:18:43.000 And, uh, so he goes outside and he comes back and I go, what's the deal?
00:18:48.000 And, uh, Scott, I think had the correct attitude, which was pissed off.
00:18:53.000 And he goes, Heath Ledger, you know, Heath Ledger.
00:18:54.000 And I go, I know of him.
00:18:56.000 Joker guy.
00:18:57.000 Yeah, well, I'm friends with him and he's, he just OD'd.
00:18:59.000 Uh, and I'm kind of including this in heroin, by the way.
00:19:04.000 Like, Fentanyl and Oxy, all these things.
00:19:07.000 All these opioids and street heroin.
00:19:09.000 I'm sort of amalgamating into this one episode. 1.00
00:19:12.000 And, uh... And he goes, fucking asshole, he's got kids. 1.00
00:19:17.000 And so, I go, well, I guess we can do this another time. 1.00
00:19:19.000 And he goes, no, actually, it helps.
00:19:21.000 I'll just, it gets my mind off it.
00:19:22.000 I mean, I'm just doing my job here.
00:19:24.000 So he continued my tattoo, as he thought about, um, his dead friend.
00:19:29.000 And then he gives the phone to his assistant.
00:19:33.000 Uh...
00:19:34.000 It's shattered, by the way.
00:19:35.000 All tattooists' phones are shattered.
00:19:37.000 And a little tangent here, if I may.
00:19:39.000 When did tattooists become so PC?
00:19:44.000 When I got my first tattoo in 1988, I go, oh, that hurts a lot.
00:19:48.000 I think I might faint.
00:19:49.000 And the tattooist was so pissed.
00:19:52.000 He was a biker, and it was in someone's basement.
00:19:55.000 There was no tattoo shops in 1988 in Ottawa, Canada.
00:19:58.000 And he goes, I love the new breed of man that's getting a tattoo these days.
00:20:02.000 I'll never forget that line till the day I die.
00:20:05.000 And then I think sometime in like the late 80s early 90s women started getting tattoos.
00:20:12.000 Lots of tattoos.
00:20:13.000 Punk chicks and stuff. 0.79
00:20:15.000 And women have a higher tolerance of pain so they're better at it really. 1.00
00:20:20.000 I mean I have to be drunk or something to be able to get like my back or something but you'd see a girl there and she'd just be reading a magazine talking as like needles going in and out of her spine.
00:20:30.000 Or inner thigh, they just, you know, they're made for childbirth. 1.00
00:20:34.000 And so I bet tattooists go, alright, we got a lot of chicks here, so we need to make a chick-friendly environment. 0.99
00:20:40.000 And so sometime in the late 80s, early 90s, it became cool not to have a macho environment in a tattoo shop because that's better for business.
00:20:49.000 I remember one tattooist, I can't remember who it was, saying to me that he was really pissed about the word tramp stamp.
00:20:55.000 It's like the n-word to him.
00:20:57.000 Because those used to be his bread and butter.
00:20:59.000 Those used to pay my mortgage, he said.
00:21:02.000 And then someone came up with the word trans stamp and that tattoo just vanished.
00:21:07.000 Ceased to be.
00:21:07.000 So, and then you start having female tattooists in the early 90s.
00:21:16.000 Mid to late 90s and now all of a sudden it's chick thing and women ruin everything So just like having a woman on your boat if you're a pirate the whole crew is ruined now and now Tattoo shops are all about fuck Trump and I mean I don't think I could go to Saved Tattoo where Scott works where I got a bunch of my tattoos. 1.00
00:21:35.000 I don't think I could walk in there 0.98
00:21:37.000 To this today.
00:21:39.000 It would be like David Duke walking in to the Soul Train Awards.
00:21:47.000 You'd have to go in blackface. 1.00
00:21:51.000 So anyway, sorry.
00:21:51.000 So he's doing the tattoo and the dude is really getting on my nerves, this assistant guy.
00:21:58.000 He's wearing a floppy beanie, which I'm sure is normal for millennials, but I will never get used to it. 0.97
00:22:05.000 Same with shower shoes, those slip-on things that mostly black kids but most young people wear with their little bobby socks. 1.00
00:22:12.000 And you think, what if someone slaps your girl and you've got these stupid shower shoes on? 0.99
00:22:17.000 I mean, I saw kids when I was on vacation at Atlantis, my boys playing basketball, there's kids playing basketball in those shoes. 1.00
00:22:25.000 You know what's worse?
00:22:26.000 There was kids swimming in the pool with those on!
00:22:31.000 Swimming in a pool with shower shoes on.
00:22:33.000 Help me out here, people!
00:22:35.000 Help me!
00:22:36.000 And the beanie, oh my god, you see guys in New York, young total hunks in Manhattan, like in Washington Square Park, jogging with their shirt off and a beanie on.
00:22:48.000 So your body's hot, but your head is cold?
00:22:50.000 What's happening here? 0.99
00:22:52.000 A lot of the times I'd argue it's black and Jewish self-hatred. 0.93
00:22:57.000 Yeah, you heard me. 0.99
00:22:58.000 They don't like that their hair is kinky. 0.99
00:23:01.000 And they've noticed that when they wear a beanie, especially a tight one for a long time, especially after it's wet, they take it off and they have kind of straight hair.
00:23:09.000 So, I don't approve.
00:23:11.000 I think it's racist and anti-Semitic to wear a beanie.
00:23:14.000 Anyway, he's got one of those on.
00:23:15.000 It's a real floppy one too, like a Smurf.
00:23:18.000 And he said something almost as gay as, I like your new sunglasses.
00:23:24.000 He came over and he's got Scott's cracked phone and he goes,
00:23:32.000 Hey, he's being that heavy.
00:23:36.000 And I go, what's the deal here?
00:23:39.000 I'm ready to leave because this guy's annoying me so much.
00:23:43.000 And he says to Scott, here's your phone.
00:23:47.000 And he goes, I don't want it back.
00:23:48.000 What are you doing?
00:23:49.000 What's the problem?
00:23:50.000 Like, Scott's annoyed by him.
00:23:52.000 And he goes, just a lot of people reaching out to you, a lot of people that care about you a lot, love you a lot, and they're worried about you, man.
00:24:02.000 Ew.
00:24:05.000 I would rather he came up and said, I can't deny I find a lot of young boys sexy, seven years old in short shorts, red leather short shorts.
00:24:12.000 I want to see them play tennis.
00:24:13.000 I want to see them sweat. 0.99
00:24:15.000 Then I would just go, okay, you're disgusting. 1.00
00:24:16.000 You should die. 1.00
00:24:17.000 I could probably get over it easier than a lot of people love you. 1.00
00:24:20.000 A lot of people care about you.
00:24:23.000 And the thing that really pissed me off about it too, is I know he went home to his girlfriend.
00:24:29.000 And piggybacked on Scott's grief because it involved a famous guy.
00:24:33.000 So you know that he came home that night and just sort of maybe took, did they take off their beanies when they go home?
00:24:39.000 I don't know.
00:24:40.000 Took off his beanie, took off his Smurf hat, sort of sat down on the couch. 0.89
00:24:44.000 His girlfriend's there with her cheesy tattoos, kind of fake old school tattoos of like a rose and a dagger and a flapper or some shit. 0.99
00:24:52.000 And she's like, what's up? 0.96
00:24:54.000 They've got their rescue pit.
00:24:56.000 That already ate all their furniture and is gonna kill their neighbor if they don't watch out?
00:25:01.000 What's going on, Mark?
00:25:03.000 And he goes, ugh.
00:25:05.000 And then he just puts his head in his hands.
00:25:06.000 I bet he makes himself cry, too.
00:25:08.000 He just goes... And she goes, what?
00:25:14.000 What is it?
00:25:16.000 Heath Ledger's gone.
00:25:18.000 And Scott is not taking it well.
00:25:21.000 Meanwhile, Scott was fine.
00:25:22.000 Scott was mad.
00:25:23.000 That was his instinct.
00:25:25.000 And then she sits down and she puts her arm around him.
00:25:28.000 I'm making all this up, by the way.
00:25:29.000 But I'm pretty sure it's true.
00:25:31.000 She puts his arm around him and then she just sort of buries her forehead in the nape of his neck.
00:25:37.000 And then she starts crying.
00:25:39.000 And they both cry about a guy they didn't know. 0.85
00:25:42.000 A guy who's a douche who abandoned his children.
00:25:46.000 Sorry, Dash Snow, but you did too. 1.00
00:25:50.000 You know, Philip Seymour Hoffman had a separate fucking apartment for heroin. 0.97
00:25:56.000 No, that's because he didn't want the kids to see the syringes. 0.99
00:25:59.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:26:00.000 That's called a heroin house. 0.58
00:26:02.000 You gave yourself your own heroin house.
00:26:04.000 You could really focus.
00:26:06.000 On your drug self-indulgence.
00:26:07.000 It's a disease!
00:26:09.000 Oh yeah?
00:26:09.000 Tell that to a cancer survivor.
00:26:11.000 What did you have?
00:26:12.000 Oh, I had bone cancer, but I managed to live after they removed all my limbs, and I went through two years of chemo, and now I can't see.
00:26:19.000 Oh, so sort of like me when I get too wasted?
00:26:22.000 Nope.
00:26:23.000 No, not like you when you overindulge.
00:26:25.000 It's a genetic, horrible, uh, what's the word I'm looking for?
00:26:31.000 Deformation of my cells.
00:26:33.000 Yeah, so like when I get super drunk.
00:26:36.000 No.
00:26:38.000 Philip Seymour Hoffman died of self-indulgence, and he's on the front page.
00:26:41.000 Remember Drake was all pissed?
00:26:43.000 Why aren't I on the cover? 0.96
00:26:45.000 Just because that fat guy died?
00:26:46.000 I kind of agree with you, Drake.
00:26:48.000 Because they're like, the death of a legend.
00:26:50.000 And they never mention that the guy OD'd.
00:26:53.000 Like, I don't know what exact pill combination Heath Ledger did, but that should be public knowledge.
00:26:58.000 I want people to know that your hero, your favorite actor, died of a heroin overdose.
00:27:04.000 Paul Giamatti died of a heroin overdose?
00:27:06.000 No, the other fat good actor.
00:27:08.000 Oh, sorry. 0.99
00:27:11.000 And by the way, that chick in the nape of his neck... 1.00
00:27:15.000 Then she, I bet you, she started using that death as a thing around her friends.
00:27:21.000 So she goes out for coffee.
00:27:22.000 She probably couldn't wait to get out of the apartment too. 0.99
00:27:24.000 So are you and me okay here?
00:27:25.000 Because I already made plans.
00:27:27.000 Uh, yeah, I guess.
00:27:28.000 I'll just, I'm gonna tweet pictures of me and Scott and then Scott and Heath and maybe people will sort of see the connection.
00:27:35.000 Okay, I'll be over at the 0.98
00:27:38.000 At the Roebling Tea House with my friends talking about how fucked up I am. 1.00
00:27:42.000 Because my boyfriend's fucked up. 1.00
00:27:43.000 Because his boss is fucked up. 1.00
00:27:45.000 Because he knew Heath Ledger. 1.00
00:27:49.000 Wait, let me pull up this song that's reminding me of all this.
00:28:06.000 Let me just briefly go over them. 0.99
00:28:07.000 Because I want you to know that you shouldn't have sex with a supermodel with AIDS. 0.99
00:28:29.000 Cocaine, the only guy I ever noted to OD on cocaine was a black guy from Kids. 0.99
00:28:34.000 What was his name again?
00:28:35.000 Harold? 1.00
00:28:37.000 With all due respect to the dead, I don't like to speak ill of the dead, but he was a moron and a dick. 0.99
00:28:41.000 I remember Pat O'Dell once convinced him, they were in the South in Alabama, they were all skateboarders, and he goes to get a skateboard, Harold does, whatever his name is, and Pat goes, dude, sorry, you're not allowed to come with us. 0.99
00:28:57.000 He goes, what, why?
00:28:59.000 Segregation here in the South, so black people are not allowed on skate parks until 8 p.m.
00:29:05.000 And instead of laughing, he goes, oh man, and he stays in the van. 1.00
00:29:10.000 That's how dumb he was. 0.99
00:29:11.000 But he would also hit on chicks. 1.00
00:29:13.000 I heard he got caught sucking off a dude to buy coke. 1.00
00:29:17.000 That's New York. 0.99
00:29:17.000 See, that's also the... I'm not from the Giuliani New York. 0.99
00:29:21.000 Well, I am from the Giuliani New York, sorry.
00:29:22.000 I'm not from the David Dinkins New York, and I didn't see dead bodies every day.
00:29:25.000 But still, the early 2000s, late 90s, there was still like a real edge to it.
00:29:30.000 So...
00:29:32.000 When I tell horrible, offensive jokes and say horrible things, that was just normal back then.
00:29:36.000 All our friends were dying.
00:29:38.000 I sort of say that about Terry Richardson, too. 1.00
00:29:40.000 You know, oh, he was horrible, and there's a picture with cum on a girl, and what a pig. 1.00
00:29:45.000 And you go, nah, all his friends were dead. 1.00
00:29:48.000 Like that's the world he's coming from.
00:29:50.000 So you're just seeing an edgier time in New York through 2018 goggles and going, ill.
00:29:56.000 But the whole city was ill back then.
00:29:58.000 You know what Terry Stagg at his bachelor party, uh, I knew this dude, Omar, Muslim guy, I guess he didn't do any drugs or anything.
00:30:06.000 He shows up to Terry's bachelor party.
00:30:09.000 Omar is the only guy who doesn't do heroin.
00:30:12.000 All his friends were junkies.
00:30:14.000 So Omar gets there a little tardy.
00:30:17.000 And it looks like Auschwitz.
00:30:20.000 There are ten bodies just lying there.
00:30:23.000 Sorry about that offensive analogy.
00:30:25.000 There I go again. 0.92
00:30:27.000 And there's four or five naked chicks, prostitute strippers, who were there dancing, and they were dancing around doing coke, and the ten guys, Terry's buddies, were doing heroin. 0.93
00:30:37.000 And everyone, including Terry, is asleep. 0.96
00:30:40.000 They've knocked themselves out with smack.
00:30:41.000 So the girls are just sitting there drinking beer, watching TV. 0.99
00:30:44.000 So what does Omar do? 0.99
00:30:45.000 He just shows up and fucks them all. 1.00
00:30:49.000 He's with all these naked ladies, like, as, you know, one's riding him. 1.00
00:30:54.000 He's, like, sitting on a dude's leg. 0.95
00:30:56.000 A passed out guy.
00:30:58.000 Like, there's a foot in the passed out guy's face and he's not waking up.
00:31:02.000 Ten guys, just dead bodies all over the loft.
00:31:06.000 As Omar has a heyday, then he's done, you know, he watches a movie with them, drinks some beer and goes home.
00:31:11.000 Fun bachelor party.
00:31:14.000 But, uh, yeah, I think Harold OD'd on coke, but besides that, you know, you don't really hear about people OD'ing on coke or pod or a lot of different drugs.
00:31:24.000 But these opioids, these fentanyls, they are a separate category.
00:31:29.000 So the short version of this, this particular episode is don't do them.
00:31:34.000 But, uh, no, let me go back.
00:31:37.000 Let me just list some of the people I know who have croaked on this drug.
00:31:41.000 I'm thinking about San... Sanjay was this dude, uh, Indian guy in Canada.
00:31:46.000 Indians are very common in Canada.
00:31:47.000 They're like our blacks, but, uh, but nicer. 1.00
00:31:51.000 Now, after saying that, um, thing about how I'm offensive, now I can't stop being offensive.
00:31:57.000 Uh, I've got them all listed here.
00:31:59.000 So San... Sanjay was in this band called The Nils, and I am pretty sure
00:32:06.000 That, um, this dude Carlos in the Nils.
00:32:09.000 So, so, uh, Sanjay got clean after doing a lot of heroin.
00:32:13.000 And then I think this dude Carlos, or maybe he was, he had not done it yet, but Carlos goes, here, try this Coke.
00:32:21.000 And you're in a band, you know, there's lots of drugs around.
00:32:23.000 So he does the Coke and it turns out it's smack.
00:32:26.000 And he does it a couple of times.
00:32:27.000 The next thing you know, he's addicted to smack.
00:32:29.000 See, junkies want you to be a junkie too.
00:32:32.000 That's different.
00:32:32.000 Like, you don't really see that with Cokeheads.
00:32:34.000 Cokeheads don't want you to do their Coke. 1.00
00:32:37.000 Potheads are happy to share, but they don't really care if you get heavily into pot or not.
00:32:43.000 Junkies are totally different.
00:32:44.000 They want you to get addicted, and when you don't, when you quit or something, they're pissed off.
00:32:50.000 They want to get you back on the horse, even though it could kill you.
00:32:54.000 So, I think Carlos duped Sanjay into becoming a heroin addict, and then he decided he wanted to get clean, and his family got involved, and his family took him back to India.
00:33:05.000 Um, India is the epicenter of heroin, Sanjay.
00:33:08.000 So it's not a good place to go to get clean.
00:33:10.000 In fact, I've heard there that few people do get clean.
00:33:12.000 The way they do it is they chain you to a bed for 10 days.
00:33:16.000 But he OD'd there.
00:33:17.000 That is a doornail.
00:33:20.000 Uh, Chris was another kid that I used to hang out with, a super smart guy, we called him Black Chris because he always wore black, and he would make fun of me because I was punk, you know, when I was 20, and you're supposed to be over it by then, and he was, had long been over it, and he was in the scene way before me when I was a little kid, and he would always walk behind me and go, how goes the revolution?
00:33:40.000 Mocking punk rockness.
00:33:43.000 Brilliant guy.
00:33:44.000 Cool guy.
00:33:46.000 He died in 1995.
00:33:48.000 Sanjay was 96.
00:33:50.000 There was this kid, Phil, that was dating Melissa Oftermeyer.
00:33:54.000 She was like a big celebrity in our scene in Montreal because she joined the band Hole.
00:33:54.000 Do you remember her?
00:33:58.000 So everyone was in awe of her.
00:34:00.000 And she was just a cool 16-year-old who was sort of grunge before anyone else.
00:34:06.000 And she was dating Phil.
00:34:07.000 And Phil was funny and cool.
00:34:10.000 He got kicked out of school, got kicked out of McGill University, and then he got caught drunk driving, and got depressed, and was living back in Boston, and his dad came home one day and he was sitting on the couch, dead.
00:34:23.000 Then there was Jonathan in 1995.
00:34:27.000 He got Hep C from the needles and I think he hanged himself because back then Hep C was a death sentence.
00:34:33.000 Now you can have it cured.
00:34:34.000 It's 80 grand, I believe, which I'm happy to pay if it's going to save my life.
00:34:38.000 Just, you know, go on a payment plan.
00:34:42.000 And by the way, the hep C thing is very important because there's a lot of people you find out about who die of heroin but it's not listed as a heroin death because they'll do something like they'll get liver cancer.
00:34:54.000 So they'll quit and then 10 years later at the age of 38 they die of liver cancer and that's because they exhausted their liver doing heroin.
00:35:02.000 Hep C is another one.
00:35:03.000 So there's the heroin death and then there's the ancillary effects.
00:35:08.000 I think in 2016 we had something like 62,000 people OD.
00:35:13.000 And you know those are not pot and coke ODs.
00:35:16.000 Those are opioids.
00:35:19.000 62,000.
00:35:19.000 That's how many men we lost in Vietnam.
00:35:23.000 So this should be as big a crisis as the Vietnam crisis. 0.93
00:35:27.000 But it's not.
00:35:28.000 Why is that?
00:35:29.000 I think one of the reasons is Big Pharma is a big advertiser on both Fox News and CNN.
00:35:36.000 So, you know, you'll be watching Fox News and they'll say, we have a very brave scoop no one else is talking about.
00:35:41.000 And then it'll cut to Fentolax.
00:35:44.000 Ask your doctor about chronic diarrhea and the potential.
00:35:48.000 You watch some of these commercials and it's like, this is a preventative drug that can prevent liver tumors 30 years down the road.
00:35:54.000 And you think, do I really need to take that?
00:35:57.000 But they don't want to bite the hand that feeds them, so we don't hear about Big Pharma.
00:36:01.000 But we should.
00:36:03.000 We should hear about the families, too.
00:36:05.000 There's one family, there was a great article in The New Yorker, I think?
00:36:10.000 Maybe it was New York Magazine?
00:36:11.000 The family that built an empire of pain.
00:36:15.000 And it's about this one family, I think their pharmaceutical company, Purdue Pharma, produces OxyContin, I think.
00:36:22.000 But an addiction specialist that spoke to the magazine said, Sackler's firm, Purdue Pharma, bears the lion's share of the blame for the opioid crisis.
00:36:31.000 And then we also had these doctors in New York who just got caught taking bribes from big pharmaceutical companies.
00:36:40.000 Yeah, taking you know strippers prostitutes free trips to Disneyland and It said so that that article you can look it up It's called doctors charged an alleged painkiller kickback scheme in the New York Post and it said in reality many of the speaker programs Friedman Goldstein
00:37:00.000 Schlefstein, Voudaris, and Bourdukia, these are the names of the doctors, conducted were merely social gatherings at high-end restaurants with no educational presentation whatsoever, the indictment filed in Manhattan federal court said.
00:37:13.000 So, these guys were just taken out on the town.
00:37:17.000 No educated, no, no, no, you know, PowerPoints about the drug.
00:37:19.000 They're just taken out of the town and encouraged to prescribe these opioids and we're looking at 60,000 deaths.
00:37:27.000 Everywhere, like New York, Manhattan, Westchester.
00:37:31.000 Rich kids, poor kids, hillbillies.
00:37:33.000 That kid I told you about at the beginning of the show, who's on the side of the road?
00:37:36.000 Redneck.
00:37:37.000 In the middle of upstate New York.
00:37:38.000 And upstate New York, by the way, is indecipherable from the South.
00:37:41.000 They've got the Confederate flag, they got the camo, they watch Duck Dynasty, they love Larry the Cable Guy.
00:37:47.000 Upstate New York is the South.
00:37:48.000 So rednecks. 1.00
00:37:49.000 I was in Ohio a couple years ago.
00:37:51.000 I'm seeing junkie farmers.
00:37:54.000 You know, they're everywhere.
00:37:55.000 They know no class, no race. 0.95
00:37:58.000 And I think it starts with Big Pharma, then corrupt doctors, and then it's MS-13 and illegal immigrants who are bringing in the heroin. 1.00
00:38:05.000 And when you say Oxy's too expensive for you and you want to switch to the street stuff, that's when MS-13 comes in and goes, we got some street stuff right here, man.
00:38:17.000 Gordon died 1997.
00:38:20.000 He'd got his life together, but he fell off.
00:38:26.000 See, I'm not drinking Maker's Mark for Lent, but I have had some falls from grace.
00:38:30.000 I'm fine after the fall from grace.
00:38:32.000 Worst things that'll happen is I pee the bed. 1.00
00:38:34.000 You fall from grace when you're a junkie and you die.
00:38:37.000 I don't know how many junkies, most of the ones I'm listing here and thinking of, they died of a much more evil drug called Bud.
00:38:48.000 I would say 50% of the junkies I know of died of Budweiser.
00:38:51.000 You see, what happens is they're up to their $300 a day habit, and even if they don't shoot it, sometimes these guys will snort.
00:38:56.000 So they're snorting like, you know, those sugar packs that you get for your coffee?
00:39:01.000 That of heroin a day.
00:39:04.000 And then they quit, they get clean, they go to rehab, they get their life together.
00:39:09.000 Life is awesome.
00:39:10.000 They've done some serious damage, by the way, to the old liver, but at least they're alive.
00:39:14.000 And then they're at a bachelor party or something,
00:39:17.000 And they say, I'll have one Budweiser that can't kill me.
00:39:21.000 I hope Budweiser doesn't sue me for this.
00:39:22.000 I'm being hyperbolic, M. Heiser Busch.
00:39:25.000 And then they have two, three, four, five.
00:39:29.000 And then they maybe do a shot.
00:39:31.000 Everyone's doing shots.
00:39:32.000 And then they go, let's get some Coke.
00:39:34.000 Then they're high.
00:39:34.000 Then they get some Coke.
00:39:35.000 Then a little too wired.
00:39:36.000 And then someone goes, I'm getting smack.
00:39:37.000 You want some heroin?
00:39:38.000 Yes.
00:39:39.000 Why not?
00:39:40.000 And then they cut out a line, a giant caterpillar, based on what they were used to before.
00:39:45.000 Boom, they OD. 0.99
00:39:48.000 That's what I think happened to Gordon.
00:39:49.000 I'm not giving you their full names.
00:39:52.000 Then there was Ben, the bartender at Max Fish.
00:39:54.000 He looked like Charlie Brown.
00:39:56.000 He seemed to die the same way with Budweiser's after getting clean.
00:40:00.000 You know what junkies do, by the way, after someone dies?
00:40:03.000 They run to find him.
00:40:06.000 They don't call the cops. 1.00
00:40:06.000 They go to his house because if that shit was pure enough to kill someone, it must be really good stuff. 1.00
00:40:12.000 So they run over to his house and try to get there before the cops do. 0.99
00:40:16.000 So they can get, if there's any bags on the floor, they can grab it.
00:40:20.000 See, that's why it's unique.
00:40:21.000 I think Satan is totally focused on opioids.
00:40:24.000 He's neglected all the other drugs.
00:40:28.000 Because isn't that a satanic thing to do?
00:40:30.000 To be rifling through a dead body's pockets?
00:40:33.000 I don't know, man.
00:40:34.000 That seems pretty... You don't hear about cokeheads doing that. 1.00
00:40:38.000 You don't even hear about speed addicts doing that.
00:40:40.000 Maybe meth?
00:40:41.000 I don't know much about meth.
00:40:43.000 I did do it once.
00:40:46.000 Um, the time I did, one of the only times I remember doing heroin, uh, we were all sitting around listening to Rolling Stones, which is what you're supposed to do.
00:40:54.000 I remember barfing a lot, and the barf just felt like taking a dump.
00:40:58.000 Like it wasn't a problem, just bleh.
00:41:00.000 Yeah, I barfed.
00:41:01.000 It's like going pee.
00:41:04.000 And I remember I came up with a funny bit.
00:41:06.000 Even, I'm so funny that I came up with a funny bit on heroin.
00:41:09.000 I said, uh, uh, hey, you know how, uh,
00:41:16.000 Oh yeah, I remember two things, two funny bits from that, the last time I ever did Harem, which was probably like 15 years ago.
00:41:23.000 I said, hey, I feel like I was a little too high and I just barfed.
00:41:29.000 You talk like Keanu Reeves for some reason.
00:41:31.000 And I feel like now I could do, I could do any kind of job interview.
00:41:37.000 Like I feel more me than me.
00:41:38.000 I feel like a me dipped in me sauce.
00:41:41.000 Sort of like Adderall, but at a different angle.
00:41:44.000 90 degrees from Adderall, but the same sort of ultimate gav.
00:41:49.000 Ask me, like, let me do a job interview.
00:41:52.000 I'm even too uppity on Smack.
00:41:55.000 And the guy I was doing it with goes, what?
00:41:58.000 And I go, ask me, like, be a boss.
00:42:01.000 Like, you're the boss and you're asking me for a job.
00:42:03.000 Like, let's do a job interview.
00:42:06.000 And he goes, what?
00:42:07.000 And I go, just say like, so what can you do for the company?
00:42:10.000 Like normal questions.
00:42:11.000 And I bet I could do a really good job right now.
00:42:13.000 I feel like I could do a slam dunk.
00:42:16.000 I'm going to get this job.
00:42:17.000 And he's like, what?
00:42:18.000 I go, dude, ask me if I want a job. 0.99
00:42:23.000 And he's quiet for a minute and he looks at me and he goes, you want a fucking job? 0.99
00:42:31.000 That would be the best job interview ever. 1.00
00:42:33.000 You show up, and the boss is a junkie, and he's just like, you want a fucking job? 0.99
00:42:39.000 I actually used to get Adderall illegally from a corrupt doctor on Park Avenue, and he was a junkie, and he would talk like that. 1.00
00:42:46.000 You want some fucking Adderall? 0.98
00:42:48.000 He wore a snowboard pants, and his office was in an apartment building. 0.99
00:42:53.000 One time, I forgot my umbrella, and no, my wife's, my wife was also going there, and she forgot her umbrella, and I went back in to get it. 0.91
00:43:01.000 And there's a tranny, a black tranny, standing in front of him. 1.00
00:43:05.000 And he's sitting on the couch and he's holding her hand and looking up at her. 0.98
00:43:09.000 And as I walk in and grab my wife's umbrella, I hear him just look up and go, I don't understand you.
00:43:18.000 Like her ebonics was too thick.
00:43:25.000 I have an unturned stone there.
00:43:27.000 Oh yeah.
00:43:27.000 So the other funny thing I came up with with that same guy,
00:43:31.000 Which, he wasn't really enjoying my humor, my heroine humor.
00:43:34.000 I go, hey, you know how they say you write really good songs when you're on smack?
00:43:40.000 And he goes, what?
00:43:42.000 Like, we're listening to the Stones.
00:43:43.000 They were junkies, right?
00:43:45.000 And they made some good jams.
00:43:47.000 I think I just wrote a song now.
00:43:50.000 Like, Jane's Addiction, they were all junkies.
00:43:51.000 Lou Reed, Jimi Hendrix, everyone was high on smack.
00:43:55.000 It makes you write good songs.
00:43:58.000 And he goes, what?
00:43:59.000 And I go, check it out.
00:44:00.000 Here's a song I just wrote right now on heroin.
00:44:04.000 You ready?
00:44:04.000 And he goes, what?
00:44:06.000 And then this was the song.
00:44:21.000 Pretty good, huh?
00:44:25.000 Two hip, that was the guy. 0.80
00:44:27.000 He died of a beer.
00:44:29.000 He was in a gang called DMS who I'm very scared of and I hope I don't disparage them But I was at a party once he was an Asian dude, and he shows up DMS is a big gang still sorry not a gang sorry guys an organization in New York that's involved in the community community outreach programs and
00:44:50.000 We're at a party on Avenue A, and he just shows up.
00:44:55.000 Hey, man, what's going on?
00:44:55.000 He's got like three guys with him, not on heroin, clean.
00:44:59.000 And then they break out dice, and we start a dice game.
00:45:02.000 Hey, and he's got money down.
00:45:03.000 We're playing dice in a kitchen on the linoleum.
00:45:06.000 Winning, too.
00:45:07.000 Everyone seemed to be winning.
00:45:08.000 And then there's a stand-up bass in the room.
00:45:10.000 He picks it up and starts like, doom-ba-doom-ba-doom-doom-doom-doom-doom-doom-doom, playing the stand-up bass.
00:45:15.000 And then, whoosh, just as quickly as he had come, foof, he was gone.
00:45:19.000 And that's kind of like his life.
00:45:21.000 Now, I'm not naming names here, and I'm cutting out a bunch of people because I realize it's boring to sit here and just name first names and tell you they died.
00:45:29.000 But the reason that I'm, you know, touching this list is to show you that these people don't become Sid Vicious.
00:45:38.000 They don't become legends.
00:45:39.000 In fact, outside of these little funny anecdotes without the last name, that's the only time you'll hear of them.
00:45:44.000 So, I get that Rasputin is on your shoulder telling you to die, but
00:45:49.000 Um, please don't fall for the legend thing.
00:45:53.000 You're not, it's not live fast, die young.
00:45:55.000 You're not going out in a blaze of glory.
00:45:56.000 You're vanishing.
00:45:58.000 No one's going to remember you.
00:46:00.000 No one's going to talk about you.
00:46:02.000 They're just going to remember that you overindulged.
00:46:04.000 And if you have kids, God forbid, your kids aren't going to remember you favorably.
00:46:12.000 So, you're sleeping with a supermodel who has AIDS, and I don't know why you're doing it. 0.90
00:46:18.000 It seems like a really bad move, and yet, you know, I talk to these cops that, they sound like they're talking about satanic zombies, because they'll say, I give the guy Narcan, and he's pissed off at me.
00:46:29.000 Like, I've talked to an ER doctor who said I gave him Narcan, and then the junkie wants to fight me, because although I saved his life, I ruined his buzz.
00:46:36.000 I'm not exaggerating here.
00:46:38.000 And I've talked to cops or what they do.
00:46:39.000 I guess Narcan goes up your nose.
00:46:42.000 It's like an air pump.
00:46:43.000 I don't know.
00:46:45.000 And he said, what I do, and the professionals know how to do this.
00:46:49.000 He's calling himself a professional.
00:46:50.000 He goes, you just put it up the nose and you do little doses and you slowly bring them back.
00:46:56.000 Because if you do the full thing, they're just instantly sober as a judge.
00:47:02.000 And, uh,
00:47:05.000 They don't like that.
00:47:06.000 Satan doesn't like losing his grip on people.
00:47:11.000 Alright.
00:47:12.000 That's basically all I wanted you to know, is that I've had a lot of friends that died on heroin.
00:47:16.000 I'm not saying that's a cool thing.
00:47:18.000 Heroin's a fine drug.
00:47:20.000 But it's not better than a ton of pot and a ton of booze and a shot and maybe a bump of coke or something.
00:47:26.000 It's not worth- and when I say heroin, I mean fentanyl, I mean oxy, I mean all these opioids.
00:47:32.000 They are evil.
00:47:33.000 You are getting into bed with Satan, and he's not gonna let go of you until you're dead or in jail.
00:47:39.000 And the fact that we're not hearing about this is a crime against humanity, to quote the card game.
00:47:46.000 The fact that we're not hearing about Big Pharma.
00:47:48.000 The fact that we don't hear more about this family.
00:47:52.000 What are they called?
00:47:53.000 The Sacklers.
00:47:54.000 I want us to focus more on the Sacklers. 0.98
