Get Off My Lawn - Gavin McInnes - GOML LIVE #73 | VETERAN'S DAY (Part 1)

00:00:14.000 Live from New York, it's Get Off My Lawn with Gavin McKinnon.

00:00:21.000 Coast to coast.

00:00:23.000 Now you've had to crash.

00:00:38.000 There's a girl I'd like to meet.

00:00:41.000 I'd like to take her home.

00:00:44.000 But the girl wants me alone. 1.00

00:00:52.000 You're right.

00:00:53.000 Sound, sound, sound as a pound.

00:00:55.000 That was Angelic Upstarts and their smash hit 42nd Street.

00:01:00.000 And when we are touring about in Manhattan and you pass 42nd Street, it's absolutely impossible not 0.99

00:01:08.000 To get that fucking geezer in your cranium. 1.00

00:01:12.000 Today's book, Skins, Gavin Watson. 1.00

00:01:14.000 We had Gavin Watson on the old show on CRTV.

00:01:17.000 He was a skinhead in the early 80s.

00:01:21.000 And he's got these beautiful shots.

00:01:24.000 His dad bought him a high-def camera back in like 1979.

00:01:32.000 And he captured the whole punk movement, the whole skinhead movement. 0.99

00:01:38.000 And of course it's been bastardized and seen as a fucking racist thing. 0.99

00:01:44.000 And there were racist skinheads. 1.00

00:01:46.000 But they all ended up dead.

00:01:49.000 It was maybe 5% of the movement in the 80s.

00:01:55.000 And those guys were guys that had been molested for the most part.

00:01:59.000 That's his brother.

00:02:01.000 He's on the front page of Skins. 1.00

00:02:03.000 And they were sad sacks that had been fucked up the arse by old men. 1.00

00:02:09.000 And they all ended up in jail or dead. 1.00

00:02:12.000 Like gangbangers.

00:02:13.000 That's an interesting angle. 0.51

00:02:16.000 How much of gangbangers have been sexually molested?

00:02:19.000 What are you looking it up?

00:02:23.000 Yeah, let's ask the computer.

00:02:24.000 Hey computer!

00:02:26.000 How many gangbangers have been sexually molested?

00:02:32.000 Sorry, I'm not sure about that.

00:02:34.000 Yeah, I didn't think so.

00:02:36.000 I'm guessing it's like, uh, 60%?

00:02:42.000 Anyway, before we get started, tonight is a very special episode.

00:02:45.000 It is all call-ins.

00:04:52.000 God bless our troops.

00:04:54.000 I should be wearing our military helmet.

00:04:59.000 Right?

00:05:00.000 Ooh, good idea.

00:05:01.000 It's Veterans Day.

00:05:02.000 Yes.

00:05:03.000 By the way, I was in a bar all day, as you can tell by my inebriation.

00:05:08.000 He says, as you can tell by my inebriation. 0.99

00:05:10.000 Um, and where were the, where was the war shit? 0.98

00:05:16.000 Like, ESPN had a very minor shout-out to the military, but if you told someone, if you told a millennial that it was Veterans Day today, I don't think they'd know. 0.98

00:05:29.000 Now, I'm not looking for accolades, I'm not looking for shout-outs, I'm not looking for a thank you for your service, but I did watch Saving Private Ryan tonight with the family.

00:05:40.000 I started a new tradition.

00:05:43.000 The family watches a war movie every Veterans Day.

00:05:48.000 A good one, obviously.

00:05:50.000 And it was a little bit rich at the beginning with my seven-year-old.

00:05:55.000 Wow.

00:05:57.000 That, that Storming the Beach of Normandy, that was I think 4,000 dead.

00:06:03.000 That was not pretty.

00:06:06.000 But after that, it gets pretty good.

00:06:08.000 I mean, it's always good, but it gets pretty palatable for a seven-year-old. 1.00

00:06:13.000 And I just, I want the kids to know what these fuckers went through. 1.00

00:06:18.000 It was unfathomable. 1.00

00:06:19.000 It was unfathomable.

00:06:22.000 Look at the way we talk about traffic or gallstones.

00:06:28.000 Like what these soldiers have been through and for what?

00:06:33.000 Someone said, we want you to support our country.

00:06:36.000 Okay.

00:06:37.000 How are the decisions made?

00:06:39.000 Well, a lot of them are bad decisions.

00:06:40.000 All right.

00:06:41.000 Are they mostly good decisions?

00:06:43.000 Yeah.

00:06:44.000 They mostly declare American independence and are good for America.

00:06:49.000 Okay, well I'll take the crunchy with the smooth, I'll do the Obama with the Reagan, and I'll do them all.

00:06:55.000 I'll just take it on the chin for ten presidents. 0.59

00:06:59.000 I might go to three out of ten shitty wars, but I'll do it because I love this country. 0.56

00:07:07.000 I mean, it goes military? 0.93

00:07:10.000 Cops, firemen, or maybe military firemen, cops.

00:07:13.000 But the rest of us, can we just like sit in awe, please?

00:07:17.000 Can we not scoff?

00:07:19.000 Can we not roll our eyes at people braver than us?

00:07:22.000 That's all I ask.

00:07:23.000 I don't ask you to serve in the military. 1.00

00:07:25.000 I know you don't have the balls. 1.00

00:07:27.000 I don't have the balls. 1.00

00:07:28.000 But the eye rolling is what bothers me. 0.99

00:07:31.000 The lack of reverence and the lack of attention today to Veterans Day. 0.97

00:07:37.000 Ryan, your dad was in Vietnam, killing white people. 0.99

00:07:41.000 My dad was not in Vietnam. 0.96

00:07:42.000 What was he, the top gook in all of Vietnam? 1.00

00:07:45.000 I don't know if that is a position, but he was not present in the wars that he saw.

00:07:51.000 So your dad was Japanese?

00:07:53.000 Yes. 0.99

00:07:53.000 First of all, your Vietnamese grandfather was out there killing white people. 0.99

00:07:57.000 That's incorrect. 0.78

00:07:57.000 And then your Japanese dad was, what did he do, bomb Pearl Harbor? 0.78

00:08:02.000 No, he was of the race of people that did bomb Pearl Harbor, but he did not.

00:08:08.000 Pearl Harbor?

00:08:09.000 He's alive, so he didn't kamakaze into the Pearl Harbor.

00:08:15.000 But my grandfather did serve on our side, America.

00:08:19.000 The Puerto Rican guy? 0.75

00:08:20.000 Yes.

00:08:21.000 In the Vietnam, in the Nam.

00:08:23.000 In the Nam. 0.58

00:08:25.000 God, I was watching Saving Private Ryan tonight, and they're showing them Storm Normandy.

00:08:29.000 Stormandy.

00:08:30.000 Stormandy. 0.95

00:08:31.000 And I'm just like, can we not fucking have some planes? 0.97

00:08:35.000 Bob, yeah, I know. 0.98

00:08:36.000 Like, I'm watching these men get deteriorated.

00:08:40.000 Just full of holes.

00:08:41.000 I'm like, can a plane not come up?

00:08:44.000 What was the story there?

00:08:45.000 I think they were... There's aerial battles all over the place, right?

00:08:48.000 There's a scene in the movie where Tom Hanks looks over, I think it's at the pilots that could have been saving their lives, and they're eating roast beef sandwiches.

00:08:57.000 Wow.

00:08:58.000 You know that everything in that movie came from, you know, real accounts.

00:09:01.000 You can just tell.

00:09:03.000 Except there's this one scene where this Jewish guy, he gets like a Nazi knife off of someone, and he starts going,

00:09:12.000 And, uh, my understanding was we didn't really know what they were doing to the Jews until, like, post-end of war. 0.99

00:09:21.000 So, like, 1946, we went, what the fuck? 0.98

00:09:25.000 The Holocaust? 0.99

00:09:27.000 And saw the pictures and the starving people and we were disgusted and mortified, obviously, as one should be. 1.00

00:09:32.000 But as far as, like, I'm gonna go there to save the Jews.

00:09:36.000 I don't think that's what it was about.

00:09:37.000 But you watch movies like Captain America and he's like, what's going on with the Jews? 0.97

00:09:40.000 Oh, they're being...

00:09:42.000 They're being gassed in the future?

00:09:44.000 Okay, I'm gonna go there and prevent that. 0.99

00:09:48.000 So there's a couple corny scenes like that, but outside of that, what a fucking movie. 0.98

00:09:53.000 And no, I do not want any kind of recognition for watching it many times, including stoned, and watching it with my family. 0.98

00:10:01.000 Save your recognition for the actual vets.

00:10:05.000 Yes, I appreciate it.

00:10:08.000 And yes, you're welcome for my service.

00:10:14.000 I don't know how I feel about this particular genre of comedy.

00:10:18.000 I don't know how they'd find it.

00:10:20.000 It's a little shaky.

00:10:21.000 What I said to my grandfather today, because I think I'm every veteran today, but I shook it up this time.

00:10:26.000 I said, I just want to thank you for your strength, and your courage, and your bravery, and your sacrifice.

00:10:32.000 He's like, thank you, Papi.

00:10:33.000 I was like, and that's just for dealing with me.

00:10:36.000 And he laughed very hard.

00:10:37.000 He wasn't seeing that coming.

00:10:38.000 Nice David Letterman, ah, after your joke.

00:10:42.000 So we have a great show for you tonight.

00:10:44.000 Ha ha! 0.86

00:10:45.000 Ha ha ha!

00:10:49.000 Apparently there was air support.

00:10:50.000 There was 26 squadrons of Typhoons on D-Day.

00:10:54.000 They provided support for the mission.

00:10:55.000 I think they were ordered to take out communications and transport targets as a priority.

00:11:00.000 My grandfather strafed trains in a Spitfire.

00:11:03.000 Where were you in the movie I saw tonight?

00:11:06.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:11:06.000 That does make sense though, right?

00:11:08.000 Just bomb those bunkers. 0.90

00:11:09.000 Yeah, they're right there! 0.95

00:11:11.000 They slayed, I think, 4,000 men.

00:11:13.000 Normandy overall, I think it was June, July, August.

00:11:17.000 I think it was three months.

00:11:19.000 And we lost 72,000 men.

00:11:22.000 Now, not we.

00:11:23.000 That's Canada, Britain, and America. 0.99

00:11:26.000 But that's still more than American soldiers lost in fucking all of Vietnam. 0.98

00:11:33.000 Vietnam was 60,000. 0.99

00:11:34.000 Omaha Beach, what a nightmare. 1.00

00:11:41.000 Holy fuck. 1.00

00:11:43.000 And then we have 2020 when people talk about how 1.00

00:11:49.000 I was there.

00:11:50.000 They were made to feel uncomfortable in the workplace.

00:11:52.000 Someone ogled their buns. 0.65

00:11:54.000 Imagine these guys being told that you're gonna live, but someone will ogle your buns in the workplace. 1.00

00:12:02.000 What a fucking pussy generation, huh? 1.00

00:12:07.000 Maybe we should call my dad. 1.00

00:12:11.000 Let's call Dad, shall we?

00:12:13.000 He needs his own show.

00:12:14.000 A lot of people are big fans of Dad.

00:12:16.000 I like calling him at this time of night because I know there's no way on God's green earth he could be sober.

00:12:22.000 My son's on a cover of a magazine.

00:12:26.000 Let's give him a ring.

00:12:49.000 Sounds promising.

00:12:50.000 The last ring sounded long.

00:12:52.000 Now it's sounding bad.

00:12:54.000 There was a break up and it went... Now it sounds good again.

00:12:58.000 No, now it sounds bad.

00:13:04.000 Hi, it's Lorraine here.

00:13:06.000 Leave your name and number and I'll call you back.

00:13:09.000 Thanks a lot.

00:13:10.000 Bye.

00:13:15.000 After leaving a message, you can hang up or press pound for more options.

00:13:20.000 Hey, Mom.

00:13:21.000 Um... Sorry to bother you.

00:13:24.000 This is not a big deal, but... Um... We... I think I'm miscarried.

00:13:32.000 I was running really, really fast, and I tripped, and I hit my belly on a stump.

00:13:37.000 And I... I had a bowel movement that felt very sort of organic and not shit related. 0.90

00:13:47.000 Anyway, this is not your problem. 0.94

00:13:48.000 I'm sorry I called.

00:13:49.000 I'm sorry I called.

00:13:51.000 So that might get her to call back.

00:13:53.000 We don't know.

00:13:55.000 We don't know.

00:13:56.000 Is that something you do?

00:13:59.000 What do you mean?

00:14:00.000 Was that the kind of like first go-ahead for a joke like that where you fake cry and pretend you had a miscarriage?

00:14:05.000 I've never done that particular bit before, but... Okay.

00:14:09.000 It's kind of fun.

00:14:09.000 I kind of want to call my mom.

00:14:11.000 My dad will do that to my brother.

00:14:12.000 He'll be like, Kyle, call me back.

00:14:14.000 I'm not going to make it.

00:14:16.000 I need your help.

00:14:17.000 No.

00:14:18.000 And then my brother will, you know, run from the bar and call him in an alleyway and be like, so what's up my man?

00:14:25.000 How are we doing?

00:14:27.000 Dad, I thought you were stabbed in the neck.

00:14:30.000 Oh, uh, I couldn't have been.

00:14:32.000 I might, I might be.

00:14:36.000 Let me see, I'm trying to connect with the callers, as we promised.

00:14:41.000 We have a lot of gossip.

00:14:47.000 The NDP party in Canada is spending their whole sort of campaign on the fact that Proud Boys are a white supremacist group, and the founder is from Canada, and they have to

00:15:07.000 Prevent that from happening again, I guess.

00:15:09.000 Oh, that's good.

00:15:09.000 And there are 300 white supremacist groups in Canada.

00:15:14.000 300? 1.00

00:15:15.000 You must be counting every single fucking tweet. 1.00

00:15:18.000 Every person's a group? 1.00

00:15:19.000 Every, every, everything.

00:15:22.000 Every, everything!

00:15:25.000 People are hating this.

00:15:27.000 What?

00:15:28.000 The sound.

00:15:29.000 You mean like this?

00:15:30.000 Yeah.

00:15:31.000 Fixing a microphone, dickweeds.

00:15:33.000 Are you making progress on it?

00:15:34.000 That often?

00:15:36.000 No, I'm a people, so I just figured.

00:15:41.000 So when you say people are hating this, you mean you.

00:15:43.000 Yeah, but we get like thousands of people. 0.78

00:15:44.000 Well, I hate a lot of people and that lot of people is you. 0.96

00:15:48.000 Ouch. 0.98

00:15:48.000 Everybody knows what I'm saying is true. 0.98

00:15:51.000 I wish that wasn't the drop that happened.

00:15:54.000 So yeah.

00:15:58.000 Veterans Day.

00:16:00.000 Incredible day and let's let's just separate it from politics separate it from I didn't like that war. 1.00

00:16:05.000 I didn't like Vietnam Imagine your job is to go to work where you can die now cops have that What about black people every time they get in their car they could die shut the fuck up. 0.99

00:16:16.000 That's not true Firemen yes, they can die and I definitely have them in a category way the fuck above me but soldiers they're even above that and 1.00

00:16:28.000 And these pussies who criticize them or criticize anything about them, they're just pure cowardice. 0.99

00:16:36.000 Like, it's a level of courage we can't imagine. 0.99

00:16:38.000 Literally can't imagine. 0.98

00:16:39.000 I can't imagine with my gun going over, you know, the fucking sand dune, the grassy knoll, the hump in the land, knowing that I could just fucking get drilled at any moment. 0.98

00:16:54.000 And they weren't all single men. 0.99

00:16:56.000 Like, they had kids.

00:16:58.000 They had mommies. 1.00

00:17:00.000 Ugh, fuck. 1.00

00:17:01.000 They talk about George Floyd called out for his mother. 1.00

00:17:04.000 Yeah, all 4,000 of the men killed on the beaches of Normandy called out for their mother as they died.

00:17:10.000 No, I don't really like that.

00:17:11.000 Why was this not all over the media today?

00:17:14.000 I checked Twitter moments, and Veterans Day came up zero times.

00:17:18.000 Now, I checked the hashtags, right, trending, Veterans Day was the number one hashtag.

00:17:24.000 But isn't that the people doing that?

00:17:27.000 Like, why wasn't the number one trend on Twitter, um, Veterans Day?

00:17:32.000 Because of Trump?

00:17:35.000 Because Trump was in World War II? 1.00

00:17:40.000 Fuck you. 1.00

00:17:42.000 The other funny thing is too, they trivialize, um, military service, but they also, uh, 1.00

00:17:51.000 Um, shit on Trump for not serving. 0.97

00:17:53.000 You can't have it both ways. 0.99

00:17:55.000 I get the whole, like, why didn't Trump serve?

00:17:57.000 I understand that.

00:17:59.000 But, so you like people that serve now?

00:18:40.000 We love the vets.

00:18:42.000 Love the vets!

00:18:44.000 Great guys.

00:18:45.000 You wouldn't even believe it.

00:18:46.000 I mean, you look at the numbers.

00:18:48.000 You know, when we cut, um... Who were... Al-Kabaddi, Badaghi, whatever it was.

00:18:54.000 Al-Baghdadi.

00:18:56.000 They... You'd think they'd go through the front door.

00:18:58.000 They didn't.

00:18:59.000 They went through this side.

00:19:01.000 Remember that?

00:19:02.000 Yeah.

00:19:03.000 Knock, knock, you would think.

00:19:04.000 They may be... You'd think you'd go knock, knock.

00:19:07.000 And this dog, this beautiful dog.

00:19:09.000 I mean, the coat was...

00:19:12.000 Pretty great.

00:19:13.000 I mean, it was great.

00:19:14.000 It was good.

00:19:14.000 I like when he does like the big like, he's like, these are great men, these big brawny men with the arms.

00:19:22.000 I was listening to a great Dave Smith set in the car today.

00:19:25.000 And he's like, I don't like politicians at all.

00:19:29.000 I hate the government.

00:19:29.000 I feel the same way as Dave.

00:19:30.000 I hate the fucking government. 1.00

00:19:32.000 I hate Republicans. 1.00

00:19:33.000 I hate conservatives. 1.00

00:19:33.000 I hate liberals. 1.00

00:19:35.000 I don't like the government.

00:19:36.000 I don't want it to be there.

00:19:36.000 I want the White House to be gone.

00:19:40.000 Military police, yes.

00:19:43.000 Infrastructure, sort of.

00:19:44.000 No, no, not really.

00:19:45.000 We'll pay tolls. 1.00

00:19:47.000 But, um, otherwise, I hate fucking politicians. 1.00

00:19:52.000 I hate the government. 1.00

00:19:54.000 What are you doing there?

00:19:57.000 Oh, the Tricaster's already getting hot.

00:20:01.000 Um, but he was saying, you know, the amazing thing about Trump is like, he doesn't have a script.

00:20:07.000 Like, name another politician that says, what now?

00:20:12.000 And there really isn't one.

00:20:14.000 What now?

00:20:16.000 What now?

00:20:17.000 And then someone will yell out, I'm doing Dave Smith's bid, I'm stealing it.

00:20:20.000 China!

00:20:21.000 And then he'll go, China! 0.98

00:20:24.000 And he'll do a whole spiel on China.

00:20:26.000 Wait, he did like an improv thing?

00:20:28.000 Like, can I get a name and location?

00:20:29.000 Well, that's the thing.

00:20:30.000 His whole election, his whole presidency is improv.

00:20:34.000 That's pretty great.

00:20:36.000 I need an occupation and a name.

00:20:38.000 What do you get?

00:20:41.000 All right, let's do some calls.

00:20:44.000 We have a lot of news to cover, and we will have Election Gate covered tomorrow, but let's save that for the main shows.

00:20:51.000 And on these free shows, I want to catch up on some calls.

00:20:56.000 All right, so we got, oh, it says veteran right here in the title.

00:21:03.000 Hopefully it's a real veteran.

00:21:07.000 You're gonna quiz them, Gavin?

00:21:08.000 Stolen dollars are pretty rare.

00:21:10.000 I'd say so.

00:21:11.000 What's up, guys?

00:21:14.000 You're on the line.

00:21:15.000 Hey, man.

00:21:19.000 Just calling in about the Senate war.

00:21:24.000 Here in North Carolina, Tom Tillis, he, I guess, officially, if you will, won today.

00:21:32.000 Cal Cunningham, the Democrat, conceded.

00:21:35.000 That's a plus for the Senate race, so I guess it comes down to Georgia as far as control of the Senate. 0.95

00:21:42.000 But a military thing, and, you know, they give Donald Trump shit about, you know, shin splints or whatever that, you know, he got deferments from Vietnam, but Biden, I believe he got deferments for asthma. 0.96

00:22:03.000 Yeah, that's the thing. 0.95

00:22:04.000 All politicians got out of war.

00:22:09.000 Yep.

00:22:10.000 I don't like it.

00:22:11.000 Absolutely not.

00:22:13.000 What was your, um, what's your military history?

00:22:15.000 Uh, I was in the Air Force for six years, uh, 4-0, which is a medical technician.

00:22:22.000 I was a medic, uh, in the Air Force.

00:22:24.000 Uh, spent two years in Europe and Germany.

00:22:27.000 Uh, did a year tour in Korea.

00:22:29.000 So what's that like?

00:22:29.000 You don't have to fly a plane.

00:22:30.000 You just sit in planes.

00:22:46.000 Could be, you know, doing a lot of different things.

00:22:48.000 You know, did a lot of general practice where we see patients on a daily basis.

00:22:53.000 You know, we can do flight ops, you know, taking people, you know, back and forth.

00:23:01.000 Did a lot of that in Europe, coming from theater to L'Ange Doux, which is the regional hospital there in Europe.

00:23:12.000 It sounds like it was pretty easy, though.

00:23:20.000 Like, there was never anything major.

00:23:22.000 You never had, like, a guy who had his leg blown off.

00:23:26.000 I'm not trivializing your service.

00:23:27.000 I'm just curious.

00:23:32.000 No, no.

00:23:35.000 Certainly saw a lot of it.

00:23:36.000 Guys coming back from theater with horrible injuries and stuff.

00:23:42.000 Coming back from where?

00:23:44.000 Coming back from the theater, Iraq and Afghanistan.

00:23:50.000 That's called the theater?

00:23:51.000 Theater of War?

00:23:54.000 Yeah.

00:23:57.000 They call it being in theater when somebody's in an active war zone.

00:24:03.000 Like the Pacific Theater?

00:24:04.000 Don't you think that um, you know, we have these low death tolls with the Middle East and then we have obviously a high death toll in the Civil War with 620,000, but you look at the numbers and so many of those guys died of dysentery and shrapnel and infection.

00:24:19.000 Maybe these modern wars are just as bad as the Civil War, but our medicine is so good that it's giving us a funny count.

00:24:29.000 Certainly.

00:24:30.000 And, you know, there's a lot more people are living today because of, you know, medical advancements, and they kind of refer to it as the golden hour.

00:24:40.000 If somebody's able to get to a trauma hospital, whether that be at, like, Bagram Airfield or, you know, somewhere where there's a trauma hospital, basically, and able to receive care within the golden hour, they generally, I think it's like a 50% chance of living, which is very good if you have a, you know,

00:25:00.000 Massive internal injuries or losing limbs, that kind of thing.

00:25:03.000 Well, as someone who's served in Saving Private Ryan now twice, at least twice, maybe probably three or four times, I noticed in the movie that they have mere seconds to survive.

00:25:17.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:22.000 And, you know, we certainly look up to you as a captain.

00:25:29.000 This is going way too far.

00:25:30.000 This is my most uncomfortable joke.

00:25:35.000 Well, you won.

00:25:36.000 Yeah, you won, sir.

00:25:39.000 You won a Bubba and Hank's gift card, two free BeardVet coffee bags and beard equipment.

00:25:48.000 And you can grow a beard at any time, by the way.

00:25:50.000 You don't have to have a beard today.

00:25:52.000 You won a Johnny Apple CBD prize pack.

00:25:55.000 And that's it.

00:25:57.000 Yeah.

00:25:59.000 Well, I do appreciate it, guys.

00:26:01.000 We appreciate you, sir.

00:26:03.000 Ryan, you got his number?

00:26:04.000 I do.

00:26:04.000 Certainly.

00:26:05.000 I will contact you after the show.

00:26:06.000 All right, buddy.

00:26:07.000 Thank you for your service.

00:26:08.000 Thank you for your service.

00:26:08.000 Sounds good.

00:26:09.000 Certainly.

00:26:10.000 Thanks, guys.

00:26:10.000 Later.

00:26:12.000 Oh, wow.

00:26:13.000 I didn't like that one. 0.88

00:26:14.000 That one stunk.

00:26:15.000 So, thank you for your services.

00:26:17.000 That's, you know, T-Y-F-Y-S, if we want to keep it a little shorter, because I feel like there's going to be a lot of that. 1.00

00:26:22.000 T-Y-F-S-Y-S. 1.00

00:26:23.000 Yeah, put in T-Y for your service, T-Y-F-Y-S, and we'll skip right to you. 0.98

00:26:30.000 T-Y-F-Y-S. 1.00

00:26:32.000 That's the kind of guys we are. 1.00

00:26:35.000 You risked your life to protect America, even with an asshole president. 1.00

00:26:40.000 We are willing to jump a call. 1.00

00:26:43.000 Yeah.

00:26:43.000 So we're basically the same.

00:26:45.000 We're skipping Charlie because we know what that means.

00:26:48.000 He's the enemy.

00:26:48.000 His name is Charlie.

00:26:50.000 Seeing your wife and kids for a year.

00:26:52.000 We're willing to push a click a button on our mouse.

00:26:57.000 Sounds the same to me.

00:26:59.000 Kevin.

00:27:01.000 Hey, what's up guys?

00:27:02.000 What's up, dude?

00:27:03.000 Hey, um, you know, it's really hard being a veteran, walking around, seeing all these civilians and knowing, you know, they've never been through it, you know?

00:27:14.000 They've never watched Apocalypse Now, Surround Sound, and they'll never know what it's really like.

00:27:21.000 I know how you feel, my friend.

00:27:22.000 As a fellow war movie vet, we both are in a different group, a different dimension almost.

00:27:32.000 And you know what the worst part for guys like you and me who've watched tons of war movies is, we try to get back after we watch the movie, we try to get back into society and we're like, you haven't seen it, you can't relate.

00:27:46.000 I don't know you.

00:27:47.000 We're forgotten, man.

00:27:51.000 Well, all we can do is text them the movie recommendations.

00:27:55.000 Like, what was the most recent one I liked?

00:27:59.000 The one where they're in that pit with the mounds on it?

00:28:03.000 Yeah, the pit one.

00:28:04.000 I just sent it to Matty O'Dell. 1917.

00:28:08.000 No, it's new.

00:28:09.000 No, that was brutal, too, and I can't believe I survived it.

00:28:12.000 It was fantastic.

00:28:13.000 I told you, man, you gotta watch it in theaters.

00:28:15.000 Because it's basically like you're there.

00:28:17.000 But what's the one?

00:28:20.000 The Outpost.

00:28:21.000 Yeah.

00:28:22.000 That's actually playing in theaters.

00:28:23.000 Where Clint Eastwood used guys that were there in the movie.

00:28:26.000 Why doesn't he get more accolades for that? 0.98

00:28:28.000 That's a fucking badass thing to do. 0.98

00:28:30.000 He made a whole movie about that train fight with the Jihadists, and he used the guys! 1.00

00:28:37.000 Alright, thanks for calling.

00:28:41.000 Next call.

00:28:42.000 Okay, here we go.

00:28:43.000 It's a call from a fellow vet, from my tier of vets.

00:28:46.000 We should have our own Veterans Day.

00:28:49.000 Like, I understand soldiers want theirs, blah blah blah, that's great.

00:28:53.000 But, um, what about war movie buffs like me?

00:28:57.000 We're good. 0.98

00:29:17.000 And I look over at my son, my middle son, and he's looking at me, and it's weird to see your dad cry, obviously, especially when he's a dick to you 99% of the day. 0.97

00:29:27.000 And he sees me going... And then I noticed he was going like this. 0.94

00:29:33.000 He was doing my cry face. 1.00

00:29:35.000 You fucking dick. 1.00

00:29:40.000 He's like, that's a win. 1.00

00:29:43.000 Air Force veteran here.

00:29:47.000 T-Y-F-Y-S. 1.00

00:29:47.000 Air Force Vet, go ahead. 1.00

00:29:52.000 Hey, this is Lighthouse Tom.

00:29:57.000 We have to keep him on.

00:29:59.000 Oh my god, were you an Air Force Vet?

00:30:02.000 Yeah, I'm an Air Force Veteran.

00:30:05.000 Alright.

00:30:06.000 Promise?

00:30:07.000 I was also in Germany.

00:30:09.000 Really?

00:30:11.000 Yeah, and I want to thank you guys for your service.

00:30:16.000 Really, you look up to us as war movie watchers.

00:30:19.000 I know, that's so awesome.

00:30:23.000 But I was going to say that when people say that to me, it's natural to say thank you.

00:30:30.000 But instead I say it was my privilege and an honor.

00:30:33.000 And you should see how that throws them, man.

00:30:37.000 Yeah, that makes sense.

00:30:39.000 Assuming that you're telling the truth, I don't think you should say you're welcome

00:30:45.000 Or even thank you.

00:30:48.000 I mean, you put your life on the line.

00:30:50.000 It's my privilege.

00:30:51.000 Yeah.

00:30:51.000 Yes, I did.

00:30:52.000 You know, and it was an honor.

00:30:56.000 That's pretty cool.

00:30:58.000 But I wanted to talk about a couple other things.

00:31:00.000 One thing is that I had to ask you, Gavin, when you're in the gym, right?

00:31:06.000 Yeah. 0.89

00:31:06.000 Is there still that whole thing with holding on to your jizz so you have more stamina? 0.89

00:31:11.000 Yeah.

00:31:13.000 I mean, they still do that.

00:31:14.000 I mean, guys talk to you about that?

00:31:15.000 That's not true!

00:31:15.000 I had a girlfriend who used to say to me, don't you dare do that!

00:31:18.000 And so, when I didn't,

00:31:38.000 And after three days, man, I was all over it.

00:31:40.000 You know? 0.99

00:31:41.000 Yeah, now the problem with all this Zoom shit with school is I'm never alone with my wife. 1.00

00:31:46.000 I used to get a whole Wednesday where I could have lingerie, whatever I wanted, and I would shoot a load that would burn holes in the wall. 0.98

00:31:54.000 And now, I'm never alone in the house.

00:31:58.000 So, sheesh.

00:32:01.000 It makes it very uncomfortable in the workplace.

00:32:05.000 Hey listen, I almost did another thing.

00:32:08.000 You guys, a couple weeks ago you were talking about what your spirit animal might be.

00:32:14.000 You know your spirit animal?

00:32:16.000 And I went and did one of those goofy tests on BuzzFeed.

00:32:21.000 And I found, you know, I pretended I was Gavin.

00:32:24.000 I pretended I was you, Ryan.

00:32:25.000 Nice.

00:32:26.000 And it turns out, Gavin, you know what you are?

00:32:28.000 You know what a spirit animal is?

00:32:30.000 A sea otter?

00:32:31.000 You're a lion!

00:32:32.000 Nice.

00:32:33.000 Oh, that's a good one.

00:32:34.000 That guy's cool.

00:32:35.000 Ryan?

00:32:35.000 Yeah!

00:32:36.000 I don't think Ryan has any natural predators, does he?

00:32:43.000 Can a rhino even beat up a lion?

00:33:03.000 That's your, uh, your characteristics.

00:33:05.000 Now, Ryan.

00:33:06.000 Yes?

00:33:07.000 Guess what you came up as.

00:33:09.000 Something small and weird. 1.00

00:33:10.000 Fag. 1.00

00:33:11.000 You're screwed, Adam. 1.00

00:33:12.000 That's a fag. 1.00

00:33:13.000 You got it, man! 1.00

00:33:14.000 A penguin?

00:33:14.000 Ryan, you, you are, no.

00:33:17.000 Okay. 1.00

00:33:17.000 You are a meerkat! 1.00

00:33:19.000 Oh, fucking, that's way worse. 1.00

00:33:22.000 Is that real? 1.00

00:33:22.000 No, it's cool! 1.00

00:33:24.000 Oh, okay.

00:33:24.000 Yeah, it's cool, Ryan.

00:33:25.000 Meerkats are cocky and friendly.

00:33:26.000 It's just as cool as a lion.

00:33:28.000 Alright, so what is the meerkat about? 1.00

00:33:31.000 He sucks. 0.99

00:33:32.000 You are talkative, friendly, and funny. 1.00

00:33:35.000 You are intelligent and capable of accomplishing just about anything, but you often struggle with knowing exactly what that is. 0.89

00:33:45.000 Fucking good. 0.92

00:33:46.000 This guy's good. 0.95

00:33:49.000 And you know, so listen, thank you guys for your service.

00:33:52.000 I love your show so much.

00:33:55.000 It's really a pleasure talking to you, but I'm telling you, Gavin, you gotta read my Lighthouse story.

00:34:00.000 Come on! 0.61

00:34:02.000 Well, if there's one day, I'll give you the time of day.

00:34:03.000 It's Veterans Day.

00:34:05.000 Yeah, we'll check that out.

00:34:06.000 Anyway, thanks for calling.

00:34:08.000 Who's our next vet?

00:34:12.000 Let's see.

00:34:13.000 You know, I was sent to bar today.

00:34:16.000 Actually, all day.

00:34:17.000 And did I already say there was no veteranship?

00:34:20.000 Yes.

00:34:21.000 And then I'm talking to this dude, I'm talking to Matty, and it comes up, bars in New York are going to be closing at 10 p.m.

00:34:29.000 Starting like I think Monday.

00:34:31.000 Oh really?

00:34:32.000 Okay.

00:34:32.000 Yeah.

00:34:33.000 Closing at 10 p.m. 0.83

00:34:38.000 Like it's not shitty enough.

00:34:41.000 And there's a thing where like say you want to get in a flight, you come back and they take your home phone number.

00:34:48.000 Not your cell number, your home phone number.

00:34:51.000 So say you get a round trip to Florida, which by the way, the flights are 20 bucks.

00:34:56.000 So you fly to Florida, you come back, they get your home phone number, they check it while you're there, and then you have to stay there for two weeks.

00:35:08.000 You have to have done a test three days before the flight in Florida.

00:35:14.000 And if it's negative, if it's positive... Actually, I don't really understand this.

00:35:20.000 I shouldn't be talking.

00:35:21.000 But, uh... Yeah, there's so many intricate details that I don't even understand how you could possibly do a round-trip ticket.

00:35:30.000 I will build a great, great wall!

00:35:34.000 Okay, we have a... Wow, I really blew that.

00:35:38.000 ...veteran on the line.

00:35:39.000 Nah, Mitch, well, that's... Now we gotta look it up.

00:35:42.000 Uh, Paige.

00:35:50.000 Hey Gavin, I gotta tell you my friend, as a Marine veteran, I've been to Iraq several times, I've been to Afghanistan several times. 0.83

00:36:01.000 This schtick, thank you for your service, is fucking hilarious. 0.95

00:36:04.000 Keep at it. 0.99

00:36:05.000 It's hilarious.

00:36:07.000 Ryan, I gotta tell you, man, I'm sorry to hear that your dad kamikazed himself. 0.91

00:36:10.000 Is that why he was never around?

00:36:12.000 That's very funny, but untrue.

00:36:14.000 Go ahead.

00:36:17.000 One thing I gotta look up, one of the best reproductions of my experience in Iraq is HBO's series called Generate to Kill.

00:36:28.000 You gotta watch that one.

00:36:29.000 That has, for me, the most realistic depiction of my time in Iraq. 0.99

00:36:37.000 So check that shit out. 0.99

00:36:39.000 It's freaking awesome. 0.99

00:36:45.000 One favor and one question for you.

00:36:47.000 An idea for you, Gavin.

00:36:49.000 I'm an old-school punk rocker as well.

00:36:51.000 I grew up listening to the Germs and Dead Kennedys.

00:36:55.000 And I'm curious, when did punk rock go from anarchy in the UK to socialism in the USA? 0.97

00:37:05.000 You know, when the, when the fuck did that happen? 0.91

00:37:07.000 I'd be really interested to hear like a, like a censored, uh, defense or something like that on that, on your perspective on that. 0.98

00:37:15.000 Well, thanks for calling.

00:37:16.000 Yeah, it was pretty, it was pretty late in the game.

00:37:19.000 I mean, when I was a young man,

00:37:22.000 Punk rock was left-wing, but the right-wing was also welcome because it was no-wing.

00:37:29.000 Like you had Conflict, the anarcho-punk band Conflict, that were sort of an evolution of Crass, talking about the code is cut!

00:37:37.000 And it was an anti-abortion song because they were so pro-animal. 0.60

00:37:43.000 I'm not kidding.

00:37:44.000 They're so pro-animal that they ended up being pro-human and pro-life and they were against abortion. 0.98

00:37:50.000 And then you had Gangrene with Budweiser on their fucking album covers and you had Forgotten Rebels doing Bomb the Boats and Feed the Fish. 0.98

00:38:01.000 It was anything goes. 0.99

00:38:03.000 Sid Vicious had a swastika on his shirt.

00:38:07.000 And in early hardcore in the 80s they continued that like anything goes philosophy.

00:38:12.000 And then...

00:38:15.000 It sort of split into like crust core, grind core, napalm death stuff, which was unintelligible. 0.96

00:38:22.000 And then there was the SoCal scene with like face to face or whatever the fuck they were called.

00:38:28.000 And a bunch of these bands with big board shorts on the stage. 0.83

00:38:33.000 And they started trying to do politics.

00:38:34.000 You got bad religion. 0.99

00:38:36.000 Maybe bad religion was the beginning of this shithole. 0.99

00:38:39.000 And all of a sudden it was about political correctness. 0.98

00:38:43.000 And by the time we leaked into the late 90s, the early aughts, things were starting to stink.

00:38:50.000 But I would say punk still clung to a sense of anarchy well into the early 2000s.

00:39:02.000 But then, I don't know, this is pre-Trump. 0.99

00:39:05.000 During Obama's presidency, I'd say, you started getting these fucking dogmatic assholes who wanted to shut you down if you didn't support the socialist status quo. 0.99

00:39:16.000 What's the band, the Communism Now Boys, that band? 0.99

00:39:23.000 Real Communism Now or something they're called?

00:39:26.000 The Something Boys? 0.99

00:39:28.000 The fuck are they called? 1.00

00:39:30.000 Wait, go back. 1.00

00:39:32.000 Yeah, Downtown Boys.

00:39:34.000 The Downtown Boys were really the beginning of this extremism.

00:39:39.000 Them.

00:39:40.000 Jeez.

00:39:40.000 Look at them.

00:39:42.000 Saxophone.

00:39:47.000 Great jam.

00:39:52.000 There we go.

00:39:56.000 Great drumming.

00:40:02.000 125 million Africans?

00:40:03.000 What?

00:40:06.000 Oh, they're talking about slavery?

00:40:11.000 Jesus.

00:40:24.000 Hello, Davis.

00:40:26.000 Black Panther.

00:40:28.000 Tupac Shakur.

00:40:30.000 Yo.

00:40:33.000 They ruined it.

00:40:34.000 And the thing I don't get about this whole need for the band that you see to be the same politics as you is how unfun is that?

00:40:45.000 Like you're watching a band and the keyboardist, the drummer, the bassist, guitars all feel the exact same way as you about everything.

00:40:54.000 That to me seems polluted and wrong. 1.00

00:40:57.000 Oh shit! 1.00

00:40:58.000 We're supposed to go off the air. 1.00

00:41:03.000 Let me just do a hard cut?

00:41:05.000 No, we'll end it here.

00:41:06.000 Okay.

00:41:08.000 So this is the end of the free podcast.

00:41:12.000 By the way, Ryan, we were way behind on the free podcast on iTunes.

00:41:16.000 Is that your fault?

00:41:18.000 I don't know, but like you said, 64, a couple other ones I remember putting up there, they're not there, so... I'm gonna look into it.

00:41:24.000 What do you mean you don't know?

00:41:26.000 I don't know, because... So you do put every episode up?

00:41:29.000 Sure do.

00:41:30.000 And then there was like three of them that were not there.

00:41:33.000 So I was like, all right, I don't know.

00:41:35.000 But then we also did, um, the ones I know that the reason why they weren't there, the hot tub episode.

00:41:39.000 Yeah, that was 8 million years ago.

00:41:42.000 And then, um, me, like the just me episode.

00:41:45.000 So we didn't put those up.

00:41:46.000 Those are the only ones I didn't put up.

00:41:48.000 Those are thousands of years ago.

00:41:50.000 I'm talking about three weeks ago was not up.

00:41:55.000 Weird.

00:41:56.000 Which episode?

00:41:56.000 You did put it up?

00:41:57.000 Yeah.

00:41:59.000 Which episode was it?

00:42:00.000 You said 64.

00:42:01.000 I can't remember right now.

00:42:02.000 I think 64.

00:42:03.000 But that one's certainly up there.

00:42:04.000 Okay.

00:42:05.000 Anyway, that's enough free stuff.

00:42:07.000 We're going behind the paywall now.

00:42:10.000 Get fired, get in trouble, be brave, and never stop fighting.

00:42:27.000 I've got it!
