Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day!
00:00:19.000
And like he was saying, it's real controversial if you're going to cut all the stuff out of the different holes.
00:00:32.000
It's got holes with fabric in it, and you can either cut it out or leave it in.
00:00:40.000
I'm trying to find the hole cut out so you can see it.
00:00:59.000
You're supposed to cut that little hole out here.
00:01:03.000
Once you get it home, you have to have an exacto knife.
1.00
00:01:05.000
You got to bring an exacto knife to fix your shoes?
1.00
00:01:42.000
Imagine how quick you'd run out of shit to talk about if you got a podcast just on sneakers.
0.99
00:01:53.000
Talk shit about sneakers, Jamie will jump on that mic.
1.00
00:01:56.000
Yeah, this guy James, man, he has like 5,000 or 6,000 pairs.
1.00
00:02:05.000
Yeah, these are Cameron Haynes, Under Armors, Hovers.
00:02:14.000
I think we were trying to get me on a little earlier and you were still out hunting.
00:02:24.000
Well, I don't wish I moved here earlier because I moved here at the right time.
0.97
00:02:47.000
LA just got a new district attorney who is going to get rid of bail.
00:02:55.000
They're not going to arrest people for resisting arrest.
00:02:58.000
They're not going to charge people for resisting arrest.
00:03:02.000
There's a bunch of things like loitering, drunken disorderly, things along those lines.
00:03:11.000
Well, as long as the California people that move here don't bring that kind of stuff.
00:03:17.000
This dude is the same dude that apparently was doing the same kind of stupid shit in San Francisco.
1.00
00:03:24.000
Well, we've got a mayor in Dallas that just passed.
1.00
00:03:30.000
So literally, somebody could walk into my merch store there in Dallas and take $1,499 and walk out, and they won't even get in trouble.
0.95
00:03:40.000
Now, I wouldn't advise them to try it because they might get shot, but they won't get in trouble.
0.99
00:03:44.000
That is so ridiculous, though, that people have the lack of foresight to see how that would become a real problem.
0.77
00:03:51.000
We're starting to get a lot of homeless problems here, too, in Texas, period.
0.96
00:03:56.000
It's the first time I've spent the night here in a long time, and I was like, wow, that's a big community of homeless.
00:04:03.000
I mean, what are the numbers of people out of work?
00:04:11.000
When you have something like that, you're going to get a lot more homeless people.
00:04:13.000
There's people that were, like, barely on the edge.
00:04:24.000
Because some of them are drug addicts and mentally ill, but some of them are just people that are down on their luck.
00:04:29.000
And in this sort of environment, it's not even their fault.
00:04:36.000
I mean, welcome to the shittiest year in history.
00:04:42.000
It ain't shit compared to, like, the Black Plague or the Inquisition or the, you know, World War II. Well, for sure.
0.97
00:04:59.000
I'm ready for 2021. You think that's going to be better?
00:05:01.000
Are you going to be lining up for the fucking vaccination?
1.00
00:05:07.000
I think I'm going to hang out and see how everybody else does because I'm just not sure.
00:05:14.000
I can just consider myself, let's wait and see.
00:05:20.000
I know a lot of people that have gotten the disease, and I know a couple of them that got it really bad.
00:05:32.000
One of them was an older gentleman, and one of them was a young guy that was just worn the fuck out when he got sick.
00:05:38.000
And he was beat down already and, you know, not at his healthiest, but he's only in his 40s, and he almost died.
0.95
00:06:00.000
You know, now she's got me going up to the gym and upstairs and like she said a minute ago, it's like I'm walking the green mile like I'm going to death.
00:06:10.000
I'm like walking up the stairs all sad and slumped over.
00:06:13.000
Dude, you got a trainer, and I'm telling you, if you just stick with it, once you start seeing yourself looking good, you start getting some abs.
00:06:23.000
Better than the already pristine condition you find yourself in currently.
00:06:29.000
Your liver's probably strong as fuck, man.
1.00
00:06:41.000
Oh shit, you're just gonna go right for the big one, huh?
1.00
00:06:48.000
And I'm a giant muscle car fan, so it's right up my alley.
00:07:04.000
We're going to be doing some cool things in 2021, and it just was a perfect storm, so to speak.
00:07:09.000
It was time for me to expand and grow a little bit, and I'd kind of gotten to the top of that mountain, being Discovery, and there wasn't anything else for me to do there.
00:07:18.000
I used this year to kind of rethink and reshape what I want to do in the future.
00:07:38.000
There's only so many times you can buy a car, fix a car, sell a car, and it was time to make some changes, make it more fun.
00:07:43.000
And so the stuff we've got coming out in 2021 is going to be quite a blast.
00:07:49.000
Well, you know, I don't want to let the cat out of the bag, so to speak.
00:07:58.000
Yeah, a lady asked me one time, she goes, don't those bother you when they make noise?
0.99
00:08:16.000
I think I'm going to end up doing a podcast because there's not a whole lot going on in my genre in the podcast world.
00:08:21.000
I mean, I know some guys are doing it and they're doing well, but...
00:08:25.000
So you've got to realize that when I signed my deal with Disco, it was almost 10 years ago.
00:08:34.000
So Discovery didn't, you know, social media didn't even exist hardly.
00:08:49.000
I mean, what was it, like MySpace or something?
00:08:51.000
Well, I was doing something on another network back in the day, and they wanted to get control of my social media.
00:09:00.000
And they thought it was just, like, an easy yes.
00:09:07.000
They wanted to use it to promote other shows on their network.
0.56
00:09:12.000
And they're like, well, everybody else lets us do it.
00:09:16.000
Like, there's no fucking chance you're just going to get access to that for free.
0.93
00:09:20.000
Now, I had the same conversation several times.
0.96
00:09:30.000
We just like to use your entire social media to promote a lot of other discovery programs.
00:09:37.000
Well, see, they try that, but I couldn't post myself.
00:09:42.000
I couldn't do things, like, of myself for a lot of the time.
00:09:45.000
Like, if I went out and bought a car and my camera crew wasn't with me and so I took my camera phone and whatever and I wanted to post about it, I wasn't able to do that.
00:09:57.000
But that's ridiculous, but that would just boost up your social media, which would boost up the show.
00:10:02.000
You would think that that would be the thought, that I'm going to help boost the show.
00:10:07.000
Walk me through a conversation with one of these knuckleheads.
0.71
00:10:21.000
The question would be, how was my tenure there?
00:10:29.000
There's a piece of the contract, of the contract when I exited.
0.99
00:10:44.000
I would talk shit, but I watch their programs all the time.
0.99
00:10:47.000
I think the automotive programming could have been a little stronger, and we wanted to make some changes, but we were just kind of stuck in a rut.
0.99
00:10:53.000
The problem is they're a business, and businesses will get away with whatever they can get away with.
00:10:58.000
There's a reason why we had to make regulations to make sure that companies don't dump chemicals into rivers.
00:11:03.000
It's because there's certain people that when they can get away with something, they'll get away with something.
00:11:12.000
Anybody that's telling you that you can't post something on your social media without a camera crew there representing Discovery Channel, it's so silly because it would boost your social media.
0.98
00:11:21.000
The more you post, the more interesting shit you post, particularly about muscle cars, right?
0.98
00:11:25.000
The more it boosts your social media, the more people are going to watch your show.
1.00
00:11:34.000
I agree with you 100%, but the powers that be, they were not having it.
00:11:39.000
It took me five years of literally begging to do a crossover with Chip Foose.
00:11:45.000
And of course that episode did so well that they all think they're geniuses now.
00:11:50.000
But, you know, so I had a good run with Discovery.
00:11:52.000
I'm ready for the next thing, which, by the way, if you're a producer or a network or a streamer out there, I'm a free agent.
00:11:59.000
And I would have to say I might be a very big free agent.
00:12:04.000
Chip Foose designed my 1970 Barracuda, which I sold and then bought back.
00:12:16.000
I just got my chassis in for a 59 Corvette that I'm building for a guy in Spain, and we've changed it to Right Hand Drive.
00:12:27.000
Yeah, so we're going to start building that car here pretty quick.
00:12:36.000
Roadster Shop did it on their system and made the frame that way.
00:12:40.000
So literally, I just moved the steering wheel and I'm done.
00:12:46.000
It is so cool that there's companies like them and Detroit Speed, these aftermarket companies that build these really trick chassis that you can take and stick on a 70 Chevelle and do it up and it'll handle much better.
00:13:02.000
What's really cool is the second you get the chassis, you're going back together.
00:13:07.000
You're not taking it all apart and then having to operate on all this other stuff.
00:13:10.000
You just yank it off the old chassis and start building.
00:13:14.000
It's a cool time to own a muscle car because you can get a muscle car that actually can handle like a modern car.
00:13:24.000
I remember back when all the chassis modifications really started happening and some of the jobs that I'd see come through were chancy events.
0.99
00:13:35.000
Yeah, so Roaster Shop is putting a 900 horsepower Mercury engine in it.
00:13:40.000
And changing it to a six-speed, putting their chassis on it, and making the whole thing handle correctly.
00:13:51.000
I'm really excited that you're not using Gas Monkey Garage to build you a car.
00:13:55.000
I would love to use Gas Monkey Garage, which is what I want to talk to you about.
00:14:08.000
The John Wick car, a lot of people think is black with white stripes.
00:14:19.000
You know, it's shot in these exotic sort of like...
00:14:25.000
But most of the scenes, when you see the film, that movie is...
00:14:38.000
But it's just because it's kind of like a blue filter on everything.
00:14:42.000
Yeah, there's like a blue or green filter they have.
00:14:45.000
Yeah, but would you go that style or would you want different wheels and tire setup and all that kind of stuff?
00:14:49.000
Well, I want different wheels and tire setup because I would want it to handle well.
00:14:55.000
I'd want it to be tubbed and just make sure that it's got a real solid suspension on it.
00:15:02.000
Yeah, we could go with a Roadster Shop chassis, but I think that we get with someone like Kreger or Torque Thrust American and have them make the right size with the offset we want so that it kind of has that look.
00:15:15.000
But it's bigger meat, you know, 22 and 20s and what have you.
00:15:27.000
That is just fucking phenomenal because it's just the right amount of old school and the right amount of new school.
0.95
00:15:51.000
Well, I actually hit up Zero Engineering the other day to see if I can get a chassis.
00:16:25.000
Jamie, you don't even give a fuck, do you?
1.00
00:16:32.000
Like, you make fun of the fact I wear Under Armour sneakers.
00:16:34.000
You wear sneakers because you need something on your feet.
00:16:37.000
I need to drive a car because I have to get to work.
00:16:54.000
You don't even know what they look like, do you?
00:17:04.000
87 might have been the worst year for that car.
00:17:09.000
This was a 91, 92, and I think his was fairly new.
00:17:19.000
They were good at the time, but Jamie, the world's moved on.
00:17:26.000
If you lived in Holland in the 1200s, clogs were all the rage.
00:17:40.000
What's the difference between a sunroof and a moonroof?
00:17:44.000
Jamie's one of those dudes that sleeps all day.
00:17:51.000
Jamie, that looks like a slop of hunk of shit.
1.00
00:18:07.000
I wouldn't go for the 87. Did you get a Perpicipate trophy?
00:18:27.000
A lot of people aren't because they're played out.
00:18:33.000
In the regular world, it's not played out at all.
00:18:36.000
If you roll up in an Eleanor in the regular world, people are like...
00:18:50.000
But just give me a regular 68 Mustang because here's what I prefer.
0.98
00:18:54.000
I prefer the taillight assembly on a regular 68 Mustang.
00:19:02.000
The taillights right there, lower right-hand corner.
00:19:24.000
I love that rear deck, the way it lifts in the center.
00:19:31.000
I just think that's one of the most beautiful rear ends of a Mustang ever.
00:19:40.000
We recreated it for the McQueen family, and we shut down San Francisco and went and recreated the chase.
00:19:57.000
Come on, it's just the problem is there's too many of them.
1.00
00:20:05.000
That's okay, Jamie, but the real Eleanor car is the color that you saw before.
0.98
00:20:16.000
In the movie, it was like he named all the cars.
00:20:18.000
We're going to get Eleanor, we're going to get Mary, we're going to get so-and-so.
00:20:21.000
So that was the name of that particular car on his list.
00:20:29.000
Angelina Jolie looked pretty good in that movie.
1.00
00:20:36.000
Do you know there's a girl online that they called Zombie Angelina Jolie, and they thought that what was going on was this young lady was having so much plastic surgery that she was ruining her face,
1.00
00:20:52.000
She was just using crazy filters and Photoshop and...
0.96
00:20:56.000
She just got sentenced to 10 years in jail in Iran for social media posts.
00:21:05.000
Dude, Iran is a sketchy place to be right now.
1.00
00:21:16.000
Now show with the real image of what she actually looks like.
00:21:24.000
Yeah, but this is all like, when you see that photo, there's a photo of her.
00:21:36.000
And so that image on the right is just, she just used Photoshop and made herself look like that.
00:21:44.000
She looks like a pretty young girl and she's only 20 years old and she's gonna go to jail for 10 fucking years.
1.00
00:21:54.000
So if you ever complain about America, I want you to pay attention to what the fuck is going on in the rest of the world.
0.97
00:21:58.000
Because this is going on in Iran right now.
0.99
00:22:00.000
They killed an Olympic wrestler recently because he was at a peaceful protest.
00:22:08.000
The UFC Dana White made a plea to the Iranian government, asked him to not kill him.
00:22:16.000
And then they just put this young lady in jail for 10 fucking years.
1.00
00:22:21.000
Corruption of young people and disrespect for the Islamic Republic.
1.00
00:22:27.000
And this girl, she has mental health issues.
1.00
00:22:40.000
I'm not saying America's perfect, but it's the best thing we have.
00:22:42.000
I wonder what I would have gotten for punishment from Discovery.
00:22:49.000
But I know we went on a little tangent there, went down a dark road, but it's something that needs to be discussed because it's just so insane.
00:22:56.000
It is definitely a crazy world, but we still live in the greatest country in the world, so...
0.98
00:23:01.000
Yeah, it's not perfect, but it's the best fucking thing out there, kids.
0.98
00:23:11.000
California itself, it doesn't exist as everybody thought of it.
00:23:15.000
If you think of California a year ago, there was a thought that people had of California.
00:23:23.000
The weather's awesome, and the people are cool as fuck, and it's really smart and really intelligent.
0.54
00:23:29.000
Literally, it's a case of now we know that if you have poor government, the government can ruin a state.
00:23:36.000
The way they handle a bad situation, the way Greg Abbott handled it in Texas is amazing.
00:23:45.000
I mean, they shut down for a little while, but they let businesses stay open.
00:23:49.000
And then they said, listen, we can't do this because we're going to lose businesses.
00:23:54.000
Everyone's struggling because they're still at a limited capacity and social distancing and restaurants.
00:24:04.000
We had to shut down pretty much across the board.
00:24:08.000
And I don't see recovery for us until spring, maybe, as far as catching back up.
00:24:16.000
But if you were in California, you'd be fucked.
1.00
00:24:20.000
They're completely locked down again right now, aren't they?
0.99
00:24:31.000
There's no science that shows that if you get people to stay home after 10pm that there's less transmission.
00:24:39.000
There's arbitrary decisions that are made by politicians.
00:24:44.000
The outdoor dining thing is the most egregious.
00:24:46.000
Because you have all these people that spend so much money to try to convert their restaurants and make these outdoor dining expenses.
0.94
00:24:52.000
They spend thousands of dollars they didn't even fucking have.
00:24:58.000
Did you see the lady the other day that was just crying because she put out the outdoor dining and then they set up production, movie production.
0.96
00:25:05.000
They're feeding people right next door to where her outdoor dining is shut down.
0.90
00:25:12.000
I was pretty pissed off at that one because, you know, we shut down Gas Monkey Bar and Grill for the winter.
0.99
00:25:32.000
The tourism, they come through and they want to see Gas Monkey, they want to see the restaurant, etc.
0.96
00:25:45.000
I'll keep my personal thoughts to myself, but let's just put it this way.
00:25:50.000
And we revoked the license to be Gas Monkey Bar and Grill over two years ago.
00:25:58.000
And he basically told me to pound sand and he left the sign up and he's been Gas Monkey Bar and Grill for the last two years without a license.
00:26:09.000
How it works is I have to go through the courts then.
00:26:11.000
You know, we did it legitimately and Gas Monkey Bar and Grill does not have a license to use our name, but we then have to go through the court system.
00:26:19.000
We were about halfway through the court system and boom, Corona.
00:26:22.000
So now no courts because we're basically, the courts are closed right now.
00:26:26.000
So what percentage does that person own versus you?
00:26:30.000
He owns the majority percentage because he was the one putting in the money.
00:26:34.000
And he only had Gas Monkey Barn Grill for a certain amount of time.
00:26:37.000
He only had a license to operate under that name.
00:26:40.000
And from day one, it wasn't good for me at all.
0.97
00:26:45.000
And then when we revoked the license for not obeying all the rules in the contract and doing all the things that you're supposed to do and protect the brand and keep it an upstanding citizen and all that kind of shit.
0.84
00:26:55.000
He just said, I don't I don't believe this letter.
0.92
00:27:05.000
I've done business with a lot of people over my life, and the two people that got me the best, as far as got over on me, were longtime friends.
00:27:20.000
And this one that I'm particularly talking about was my next door neighbor for 12 years.
00:27:25.000
You drop your guard sometimes to people you like.
00:27:32.000
I've had friends that have tried to go to business with me and I put one hand on each shoulder and go, I like you.
00:27:39.000
If I want to continue liking you, we're not going to go into business together.
00:27:47.000
The reason why you want me to go into business with you as opposed to a regular real business person is because it seems like it will work.
00:27:59.000
Like, if you want to start, like, the people that have good ideas for businesses, they need to get together with people that actually make businesses.
00:28:06.000
Yeah, this was just, you know, it was a thing that we tried, and so I guess if I could tell the world's largest podcast.
00:28:12.000
If you're coming to Dallas and you want to hang out, go to the Gas Monkey Garage, skip the bar and grill experience.
00:28:18.000
It's confusing for people, but they're like, I love the show.
00:28:24.000
If you want to support the show, go to Gas Monkey Garage.
00:28:26.000
You guys own the Gas Monkey name, which is great because Fast and Loud is not Gas Monkey.
00:28:34.000
You could, but generally you don't want the, you know, it'd be like if, you know, The main star, Brad Pitt's in the movie, and it's called Brad Pitt.
00:28:45.000
You usually name yourself something else and what's in the show, you leave it to be its own thing.
00:28:55.000
Yeah, but it worked because you got a great name on top of Gas Monkey, fast and loud.
00:29:01.000
But to have the two of them work symbiotically...
00:29:05.000
But I think Gas Monkey's the way to go for the new show.
00:29:14.000
I haven't even said if I'm going to be in the automotive field yet.
00:29:19.000
You're going to be in some other kind of field?
00:29:40.000
Is this because of your experience with the grill, the bar and grill?
00:29:53.000
You know, you had my buddy, Matt Pittman, over here the other day.
00:29:56.000
So I bought a bunch of his stuff from Meat Church.
0.98
00:30:11.000
Yeah, and so I'm considering just kind of making the jump.
00:30:15.000
It'll still be a little bit of automotive, a little bit of food.
00:30:18.000
Think me, Guy Ferreri, and Anthony Bourdain all rolled up into one.
00:30:26.000
I think I'm going to roll around this great nation, checking out stuff.
00:30:29.000
The juxtaposition with different cities and their cars is pretty interesting.
00:30:36.000
The kind of 4x4 trucks that they drive in Houston, you know, somebody in Dallas would probably throw rocks at them, and vice versa.
00:30:44.000
And then the kind that we're both known for, barbecue and...
00:30:58.000
A little bit different style, a little bit of everything.
00:31:01.000
So imagine getting to tell the story of the town I'm in, why they're into what kind of car or trucks or motorcycles or whatever they're into, and then take a whiff on what their food is like compared to the rest of the world.
00:31:16.000
So it's a little bit of a rod and culture, I call it.
0.98
00:31:18.000
Just a little bit of hot rod and a little bit of like traveling around.
00:31:22.000
Hanging out, checking out the best tacos and the best spaghetti joints and whatever.
00:31:32.000
Maybe we roll a little bit of that in, but Fast and Loud was very, very hard.
00:31:37.000
We were building those cars in 25, 30 days.
0.97
00:31:42.000
The people that don't know how cars are built, they're built over a year.
0.75
00:31:47.000
If you can get someone to build you a car in a year, it's pretty amazing.
00:31:53.000
As a matter of fact, there's one up that I challenged my guys to early spring, and they built a Chevy OBS short bed pickup truck in five, all the way down to the frame, all the way back up, paint, interior, motor, tranny, everything.
00:32:06.000
What kind of Adderall are you putting these people on?
00:32:10.000
But no, it was just a quick challenge that we decided to give them.
00:32:18.000
And then they take five days off and just sleep?
00:32:33.000
And it was completely functional when it was done?
00:32:37.000
Completely functional truck when I drove it in.
00:32:43.000
And completely functional doing donuts on Friday afternoon.
00:32:48.000
And I told him I wanted it by Friday at beer time.
00:32:51.000
And by 5 o'clock, I was doing donuts in a bargain lot.
00:33:02.000
Big built motor, big built tranny, rear end, suspension.
00:33:10.000
How much time did you plan for something like this?
1.00
00:33:13.000
You've got to have all your ducks in a row if you're going to do something like this, right?
00:33:16.000
What we really did was I took stock of everything that was in the shop and I ordered a couple of parts that we were missing.
00:33:23.000
And as soon as I knew I had everything, then I took them to the challenge.
00:33:29.000
And how beat up was the truck before you brought it in?
00:33:33.000
Oh, so it wasn't too much ridiculous shit you had to do.
1.00
00:33:50.000
Yeah, as a matter of fact, while they were building, I came down here to Texas Speed.
00:33:53.000
They're just in San Antonio, I believe, and got the motor.
0.98
00:33:57.000
Are you going to miss doing shit like that?
0.99
00:34:06.000
So you know my green Mustang that I drive all the time with the fog lights and everything from the Thomas Crown Affair.
00:34:14.000
I want to be the only guy with one, all that kind of stuff.
00:34:23.000
So it is for none other than the Lord himself, Scott Disick.
00:34:31.000
Well, you know, if you look at it, he wanted it.
00:34:44.000
So I couldn't turn it down, but he seems like a pretty cool car guy.
00:34:47.000
I went to his house and met with him, and he's into a lot of different automobiles and what have you.
00:34:54.000
A lot of guys are into cars, but they're into new cars.
00:34:56.000
They're into flashy, new, show everybody how much money you got cars.
1.00
00:35:02.000
Yeah, they don't know what they're looking at if they look at certain muscle cars.
1.00
00:35:09.000
Yeah, you could literally pull up in a Shelby GT or whatever and park right next to the Lamborghini.
00:35:15.000
There's certain cars that even a lot of muscle heads don't really appreciate, like a 69 Torino.
00:35:25.000
Now I'll tell you what the meanest front end is the 72 Ranchero pickup.
00:35:32.000
It has got just this aggressive ass front end.
0.93
00:35:38.000
It's interesting too because it's a 72. My rule of thumb is after 71 they can all eat shit.
1.00
00:35:47.000
Because in 73, they started having the extra long bumpers because they had to come in.
00:35:55.000
That is like, I am fixing to come down the road.
00:36:12.000
1971 Barracuda front end, in my opinion, is the most aggressive car front end in the history of muscle cars.
0.84
00:36:34.000
Go back to that black one you just had there.
1.00
00:36:42.000
I saw one guy, he took a 1970, put a 71 front end on.
00:36:46.000
I go, I see what you're doing, but don't do it.
00:36:57.000
You got a 70. Yeah, but that white convertible right there that's the Hemicooter, that car's worth about $3 million.
00:37:33.000
You want to go straight, but you don't want to be curbing.
00:37:41.000
What is the real number in terms of the weight balance?
00:37:59.000
You know, Bill Goldberg's got the lawman down there in his collection just outside of Austin here.
00:38:05.000
And that car, me and Dennis used to take it when we owned it to like Whataburger for breakfast, you know, at the office.
00:38:12.000
And we would literally pop wheelies going down 544. Just...
00:38:22.000
John Wick's car, the car that they stole when they killed his dog and sent him on that killing spree.
00:38:39.000
69. This is the coolest gig, by the way, having this guy right here, because if you just kind of stagger for a minute, he's going to feed you the answer real fast.
00:38:48.000
There's times in real life where I turn and I'm like, oh, Jamie's not here.
00:39:01.000
What that is, is that it's Classic Recreations.
00:39:04.000
That's that company out of Oklahoma that does those.
00:39:12.000
I think that, I'd have to text my buddy, but I think Classic did my Mustang.
00:39:20.000
Go to Classic Recreations' all-carbon-fiber 69 Mustang.
00:39:27.000
Classic Recreations out of Oklahoma now does an all-carbon-fiber Mustang, and it looks fucking insane.
00:39:36.000
I've got a 65K code that I put a Hilborn injection setup on and a punched-out small block and a six-speed hidden in there that looks like the little three-speed and...
00:39:50.000
You know how small those little sticks are and everything?
00:40:09.000
You know, have you seen some of the stuff that they're getting where they can weave that carbon fiber into patterns now?
00:40:22.000
So all the problems that people had with heavy sheet metal in terms of the weight balance and everything, you can all get rid of all that.
00:40:32.000
Do you fuck around with any of the newer muscle cars?
0.99
00:40:35.000
You can't even call the new Corvette a muscle car anymore now.
0.98
00:40:44.000
I mean, it's basically a 488 Ferrari, is what it is.
0.98
00:40:47.000
And the fucking acceleration is so insane for the money and for the handling.
0.97
00:40:54.000
Oh, for $100,000, it's the best car you can buy.
0.99
00:40:57.000
I mean, you can get a brand new 2020 Corvette for...
00:41:06.000
By the time you add all the stuff, you're going to be approaching 90. Well, that's a Z06, Jamie.
00:41:21.000
Look at that, 66. Yeah, that's what's crazy.
0.71
00:41:24.000
It's faster than the Z06, but it does have big power.
0.95
00:41:28.000
It has 490 horsepower, and for what you're getting with that mid-engine setup, the fucking acceleration, 0-60, 2.8 seconds.
0.98
00:41:38.000
I mean, you've got to wear a gold medallion and clear the school zone.
00:41:46.000
It's just, I don't know where the stigma started with the Corvette, but it has stayed.
00:41:50.000
Jamie's friend was shitting all over Tony Hinchcliffe's Corvette the other night.
0.97
00:41:54.000
Jamie has his friend, and she was shitting all over Tony's Corvette.
1.00
00:41:58.000
And I was like, you're out of your mind, lady.
1.00
00:42:01.000
But I mean, my wife's got a 488 convertible, and it's basically the same car.
00:42:13.000
But that fucking car handles spectacularly.
1.00
00:42:22.000
The only one that I don't like on the new one is they came out...
00:42:59.000
It's the grossest thing you've ever seen in your life.
00:43:06.000
First of all, he's got a 72 Chevelle, which is like the grossest year ever.
00:43:10.000
Obviously, he had better management than I did.
00:43:17.000
I don't know what they did with 71, but they made it gross.
00:43:23.000
Yeah, but that's because he knows the other ones are gross.
00:43:26.000
Go to that picture again with all of the yellow cars.
00:43:31.000
He's got like, what is that, a fourth generation Corvette?
1.00
00:43:37.000
Yeah, he's got an older Corvette, looks like a 2000-ish Corvette.
00:43:47.000
It basically looks like a collection of $20,000 high-rods.
00:43:58.000
I will bust his chops next time I see him, because I had no idea that he collected yellow cars.
1.00
00:44:17.000
My buddy showed up with his yellow Corvette at some party, and we all just died laughing.
00:44:23.000
If you're like a Corvette dealer, and you're ordering a bunch of different cars to sell on your lot, like yellow, you're assuming someone's getting a wrap.
0.95
00:44:32.000
Well, either that or you're just ordering one, because like I say in the car business, there's an ass for every seat.
1.00
00:44:39.000
Some crazy person that prefers a gross color.
0.97
00:44:43.000
But yellow is like universally the grossest.
0.98
00:45:07.000
Every car I buy is black, except for when you get into the older cars.
00:45:11.000
Now, I do like to have fun with the reds and the blues when you get into the muscle cars, because they made some sick colors back then, and you could mess with them, put the stripes on them, and things like that.
00:45:37.000
That's the car they stole when they killed his dog and sent him on a murder spree.
00:45:43.000
Well, it was a little puppy and it reminded him of his wife who just died.
00:45:53.000
Yeah, but you know, definitely not yellow for anything.
00:45:58.000
It's like, I guess it's a really, really, I really, really want you to look at me car.
00:46:06.000
Yeah, I just know my buddy that bought the yellow Vette right now is just cringing.
00:46:16.000
Brand new one in that ugly color I just showed you.
00:46:30.000
This is coming from a man who has a red podcast studio.
00:46:34.000
You were starting to tell me when we walked in.
00:46:36.000
I feel like I'm inside a can of V8. Yeah, so this is the story.
00:46:42.000
We had literally five weeks from the time I said I'm getting the fuck out of California to airing Okay.
0.72
00:46:54.000
And it was actually the premiere of it being on Spotify as well.
00:47:07.000
And it was in this particular curvature, this curved shape, because it was a conference room.
00:47:15.000
And so I took this conference room and then I hired Matt Alvarez who came in and did all this shit and put the sound deadening in and then I said, and then we got these wall panels and I was like, what color can we get them?
00:47:30.000
Because the wall panels are actually like these sound like acoustic panels to absorb the echo and everything to make the sound better in the room.
00:47:41.000
You can get different kind of, like, these patterns were custom, and then the colors are custom, like you order them.
00:47:47.000
And so I said, that's what it originally looked like.
00:47:50.000
And so I said, red and black would be kind of dope.
00:47:53.000
And then once we did the red and black, like, what color walls?
0.99
00:47:56.000
I'm like, let's make this whole motherfucker red.
0.99
00:48:06.000
I can't talk about it on the air because I don't want people to know what I'm doing.
00:48:17.000
I'm actually enjoying life for once in a while.
00:48:20.000
It's been a little while when I was getting beat down pretty much.
00:48:23.000
Now I'm ready to be back up on top and have some fun.
00:48:27.000
Like the show, and then the bar and grill, and then, you know.
00:48:31.000
Yeah, but it's great to be back on top and doing what you want to do.
00:48:52.000
So you have a few bad things and a few good things.
00:48:56.000
Because a few bad things make me appreciate a few good things.
1.00
00:48:58.000
Yeah, and also get you focused on fixing that shit.
0.99
00:49:00.000
Because if everything is good, what are you, a king?
1.00
00:49:04.000
What are you, lying down getting fed grapes?
1.00
00:49:11.000
You can't just be rolling through life on clouds.
00:49:19.000
It's one of the reasons why I like pot so much.
0.97
00:49:21.000
Because even if your life is going great, you get really high as fuck, you get paranoid, and you think everything's gonna, oh my god, the world's gonna end.
0.94
00:49:27.000
And then you come out of it and you're okay.
0.97
00:49:35.000
I don't have time to get to that paranoia state.
00:49:42.000
I'll just wait on that for a second and get a few more beers in me.
00:49:57.000
Last time we were here, we drank your shit.
1.00
00:50:06.000
It sold so fast, and it was approved in so many states so quick, and I had no idea what the business was.
00:50:13.000
So I just stumped my toe with pricing, and I stumped my toe with delivery, and So I just kind of backed off and it's kind of sitting dormant while I take care of business this year and then I'm going to relaunch it.
00:50:25.000
Well, come on back when you're relaunching it.
0.98
00:50:29.000
I was going to bring you a bottle, but there's literally none.
0.99
00:50:32.000
I can't find a bottle anywhere in the United States.
00:50:34.000
I've called people and like, hey, if you've got one on your shelf, send it to me.
00:50:38.000
We might have a half a bottle in LA at the old studio.
00:50:45.000
I remember seeing something sitting around somewhere that we left in case he came back or whatever.
0.99
00:51:06.000
This is from Terry Virts, an astronaut that spent 200 days in space.
00:51:20.000
I've got what's called a super set of Pappy Van Winkle or something, and I don't know what that means.
00:51:27.000
Only thing it'd be cooler is if he took it to space with him and brought it back.
00:51:49.000
Oh, that was one that I noticed on the way up here because I was doing some research on podcasts and what have you.
00:51:56.000
Why in the hell is everybody obsessed with these true crime podcasts?
00:52:03.000
These ladies are all learning how to kill us, sir.
1.00
00:52:10.000
They're confused and they want to know why men are such murderous cunts.
0.96
00:52:14.000
And so they watch these true crime podcasts and they watch those shows on A&E. You know, those mystery, like, who did it?
0.96
00:52:25.000
That's my take on it, is that women, the reason why women are into it more than men is because they don't technically understand violence the way men do.
0.99
00:52:34.000
And so they just kind of like, they go, what the fuck is going on?
0.97
00:52:39.000
And probably they're vulnerable, so they're thinking about it all the time.
1.00
00:52:42.000
No, I think the problem, like with that Snapped, it's about women that get all crazy and kill their husband.
1.00
00:52:53.000
That's the same reason why chicks like Wonder Woman.
1.00
00:52:59.000
Yeah, you know, you come home and your wife's watching snaps for the 300th time that year.
00:53:11.000
If she's your wife, it means at one point in time you must have loved each other.
00:53:15.000
Just trying to figure out where it went wrong, Richard.
00:53:19.000
Well, it's like they say, no matter who she is or what she is, somebody somewhere's sick of her shit.
1.00
00:53:24.000
They say that, but the guys who say that are usually losers.
1.00
00:53:32.000
I just think that for women, like those crime shows are like, it's almost like a It's like a way of understanding, or a way of being prepared.
00:53:47.000
Oh, now's the time when I'm supposed to go ahead and get in the suitcase.
00:53:52.000
Can you imagine if you're a woman, just imagine for a moment, every guy you date could kill you.
0.97
00:53:59.000
Imagine if you dated women and all the women you dated were 7 feet tall, black belts in jiu-jitsu, and real angry, and they wanted to kill you.
1.00
00:54:08.000
They wanted to fuck you, but they could kill you.
1.00
00:54:16.000
Yeah, but every woman that you've dated or that you date, the guys out there, it could be Lorena Bobbitt.
00:54:22.000
Doesn't take too much when you're knocked out.
1.00
00:54:24.000
Was John Bobbitt so much of a cunt that Lorena Bobbitt wanted to chop his dick off?
1.00
00:54:29.000
At one point in time, she didn't chop his dick off.
1.00
00:54:34.000
She didn't chop that shit off on consummation night.
1.00
00:54:41.000
But remember, that was like, women love that one.
1.00
00:54:56.000
But it is weird that predominantly women like those true crime shows.
0.98
00:55:01.000
I wonder what a psychologist would think, not a moron like me, but an actual psychologist that really understands what drives people.
0.95
00:55:09.000
I don't know if you remember this, but back in the earlier 2000s, there was a young model lady.
0.95
00:55:16.000
She would be the equivalent of an influencer now, but you didn't really have as much social media back then.
00:55:21.000
She got whacked by her boyfriend, and he put her in a suitcase.
00:55:24.000
And then he went on up to Canada or somewhere and ended up killing himself.
00:55:34.000
I'm starting to get a little bit of notoriety in Hollywood, stuff like that.
00:55:42.000
So one of the newscasts in TMZ, I think it was also the only picture they found of this girl was at some event that I was at and I got my picture with her.
00:55:52.000
So the first picture to go out of that whole story was me and her.
0.99
00:56:04.000
So they quickly found out that it wasn't me, I don't think.
00:56:11.000
There was another influencer woman who got murdered recently.
0.88
00:56:18.000
I don't know what part of Texas, but I remember seeing it on the news.
00:56:25.000
I just read about that yesterday, and they haven't released what they know.
00:56:31.000
That's a weird world when you're one of those girls who puts yourself out there on the internet and you never know what psycho is going to get obsessed with you based on your pictures.
0.87
00:56:42.000
I mean, there's a lot of fucked up dudes out there.
1.00
00:56:46.000
I've got a lady, you know, I'm sure you do too with the fans out there.
1.00
00:56:49.000
I've got one that has literally been having a...
00:57:01.000
Okay, so I've got a lady that has had a one-way conversation with Richard Rawlings, if you will, on social media for eight years, six years, however long it's been going.
1.00
00:57:15.000
She talks to us every day like, hey, I just took a shower, honey.
00:57:20.000
I'm going to get some groceries and stop by my dad's place.
00:57:22.000
And every day it's tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of text messages.
00:57:29.000
And we have to place it over here, you know, and keep track of it to make sure if there's ever a problem.
00:57:34.000
I've stockpiled all the ammo necessary for my task.
00:57:49.000
That's got a serious freaking strong smell to it.
00:57:54.000
See, I don't understand my whiskeys because I don't ever drink them.
00:58:03.000
That's where you go, James, tell me what single malt means.
0.98
00:58:06.000
It's like if someone says, you know, oh, it's a fucking eight-cylinder four-barrel.
0.99
00:58:12.000
I don't know if that's supposed to be good for you.
00:58:29.000
If it weren't for whiskey, Irish would rule the world, is what they used to say.
0.74
00:58:50.000
There's some acquired tastes that are weird, like caviar.
00:58:57.000
I mean, because I know Bill Goldberg moved out there and bought a big ranch.
00:59:04.000
The plan is to have a place that's completely self-sufficient.
00:59:19.000
Water, animals, vegetables, food, and then room for friends in case the shit hits the fan.
1.00
00:59:27.000
When the shit hit the fan in LA, it opened my eyes.
1.00
00:59:37.000
But I realized that it didn't have to be that way.
00:59:44.000
So I had a couple commercial freezers on my property that were filled with frozen food.
00:59:51.000
So I had literally enough meat to feed my family for a year.
00:59:58.000
But there was a real concern that the world would get so bad that the supply chain would fall apart, and then I'd have to start feeding my friends.
01:00:09.000
So then I started thinking, okay, well I have resources, right?
01:00:12.000
So if I have resources, what would be a wise use of those resources?
01:00:17.000
Try to get as many cool people on the podcast and spread as much fun and enjoyment and spread a good vibe out there to the world.
01:00:25.000
The other thought was I should probably have somewhere where all the people that I love can exist and survive.
01:00:34.000
So do I get like a golden ticket if it all goes to hell?
1.00
01:00:44.000
The move is a couple thousand acres with enough animals that you could exist.
01:00:49.000
And, you know, like I was reading about Neil Young.
01:00:52.000
Neil Young had, I think he had an issue recently.
01:01:00.000
But Neil Young had a, he's got a giant ranch, and he makes his own fuel for his vehicles.
01:01:14.000
There's ways you can make your own fuel for your, you can be completely self-sustainable.
01:01:20.000
We're going to see you on an episode of that show.
01:01:27.000
The problem with those guys is they're just jumping the gun a little.
01:01:34.000
The problem is not that they don't have valid concerns.
01:01:41.000
When everything's great, you can just go to a restaurant and order a steak, and you can go to a supermarket and buy lettuce and asparagus and have a nice salad, and you can eat well, and you're okay.
0.99
01:01:57.000
If you want a ranch, I saw one that just went up for sale up in the northwest portion of Texas here.
0.98
01:02:18.000
It's first time anything like that's gone up for sale.
0.91
01:02:20.000
See, if something like that goes up for sale, you can get all your friends to come down.
01:02:25.000
Well, I think you've got to get your friends to join in and run it like a business.
01:02:28.000
I mean, you're talking about $150 million, but it's 225 square miles.
0.99
01:02:33.000
That's a little too big, because you don't know who the fuck is coming in.
0.97
01:02:36.000
When you have that many miles, you're going to have to have so much security.
0.97
01:02:42.000
But the thing is, if you had a place where all the people you care about could coexist...
01:02:52.000
People look at the way the world is right now, as bad as 2020 was, and they go, wow, this is the worst thing I've ever seen.
01:02:59.000
But that's just because people don't live that long.
01:03:03.000
People live these little tiny little short lives, these little blips.
01:03:07.000
And they seem long because it's, you know, your alarm clock goes off, you're like, ah, fuck, I don't want to get up.
0.99
01:03:12.000
Or you have debt, or you have this, or you have that, or you're going through a divorce, or you're going through a thing with your business and you're fucking in court and it seems long.
0.97
01:03:27.000
But during your life, you get an inaccurate view of what's possible.
01:03:33.000
And your inaccurate view is based on what you've experienced during your lifetime.
01:03:37.000
People that have never experienced violence have a very distorted perception of what's possible.
01:03:43.000
You talk to soldiers, you talk to people that have deployed, you talk to specifically spec ops guys, they've seen some wild shit, they have a whole different world in terms of what they view than you do, than I do.
01:03:59.000
And I feel like we got a taste of what's possible with 2020. And I think that things can go way more sideways.
01:04:12.000
To the point where, you know, during World War II, some untold number of people in the Soviet Union starved to death under Stalin.
01:04:30.000
And all it would take is for things to keep sliding.
01:04:37.000
And then the power grid goes down because of a solar flare.
01:04:41.000
And then there's an attack by China that kills everyone in Chicago.
1.00
01:04:46.000
And then you don't know where your food's coming from.
1.00
01:04:54.000
The problem is those preppers, they're just a little too paranoid.
0.98
01:05:09.000
First of all, gun ownership radically increased in 2020. Correct.
01:05:14.000
And gun purchases went up, and then bullet purchases went up.
01:05:23.000
I mean, you're talking to a guy who got shot in 92. How'd you get shot?
01:05:32.000
Came in back here on my shoulder and came out down here.
01:05:37.000
Dude, I was a police officer, firefighter, and paramedic before I was old enough to drink.
01:05:48.000
I went into the police academy in 18. You could be a cop at 18. I got my certification when I was 19. That is crazy.
01:05:58.000
When were you on the force pulling people over?
01:06:05.000
Yeah, I spent some time in a little suburb of Dallas called Alvarado, and then I ended up at the Tarrant County Constable's office.
01:06:11.000
And then I ended up getting hired on by a city up there at Coppell, and they put me through the fire academy and medic school.
01:06:21.000
And so that's what I did until I was like 27-ish, 26. So how old were you when you got shot?
01:06:29.000
92, so I guess I was 22. So you were 22, and you were stopping at carjacking?
01:06:37.000
I actually had been out that night with a buddy of mine, and he got lucky.
01:06:44.000
I was going through the Waterburger drive-thru, and a couple of guys came up and got me from behind.
01:07:02.000
I was always flipping and buying cars all through school.
01:07:07.000
I started my driver's license when I was 16 with a $250.76 Impala and finished high school two and a half years later or two years later with a Bandit Trans Am, four-speed,
01:07:28.000
Dude, I know we talked about it last time you were here, but that was one of the saddest episodes of your show when you had Burt Reynolds sign that Trans Am and he couldn't even walk.
01:07:38.000
It made me think, like, Father Time is a motherfucker.
1.00
01:07:48.000
Played football before he was ever an actor and did a lot of stunts.
01:07:54.000
If you'd have told me when I was a kid driving around my band at Trans Am that I'd get to work with Burt Reynolds, I'd have been like, when, where, how?
01:08:01.000
And so, I mean, my lovely wife asked me, she's like, what are you really proud of?
01:08:21.000
You had Motley Crue play at the Gas Monkey Bar and Grill?
1.00
01:08:29.000
Played my bar for a private party of about 4,000 people.
01:08:36.000
Dana White, who's the president of the UFC, when he was 40, his 40th birthday, they hired Stone Temple pilots to do...
01:08:46.000
I believe it was his wife who set everything up, but it was a surprise party.
01:08:52.000
And they hired Stone Temple pilots to be at his birthday party and perform.
01:08:59.000
And there wasn't, but I don't know, I'm guessing...
01:09:05.000
Those motherfuckers rocked that place like it was a 30,000 seat stadium filled with people.
1.00
01:09:18.000
It was the first time they had played a small bar in like a few decades, right?
01:09:26.000
And they were all like, well, you know, and my acoustics in that bar are so perfect.
01:09:32.000
The stage is five feet off the ground, but it's solid concrete.
01:09:40.000
I don't know, like 35, 40 minutes, and they ended up playing like an hour and a half.
0.99
01:09:44.000
And they said afterwards, they were like, holy shit, this is freaking riot.
0.97
01:09:48.000
And the other thing was it was a Mopar event with Dodge.
0.99
01:09:51.000
And so to get in, to get a ticket to be there, you had to drive your Mopar to the event.
01:09:57.000
So I had like 3,000 freaking Mopars out in the parking lot.
0.98
01:10:02.000
Dude, shout out to Dodge for fucking stepping the horsepower wars up to 10. Hell yeah.
0.99
01:10:07.000
When they came out with the Hellcat, they were like, let's stop fucking around.
1.00
01:10:11.000
Let's get this bitch up to 700 horsepower.
1.00
01:10:26.000
They got the demon out there now at 800. Yes, crazy.
01:10:32.000
They came out with a shape that was both modern and reminiscent of classic.
01:10:39.000
I used that car before it came out in my 2014 Comedy Central special.
01:10:46.000
That's some of the guys in the band driving right there doing donuts.
01:10:57.000
There's a picture of me posing like an Instagram hoe on a...
1.00
01:11:01.000
This is 2014. This is before the Hellcat was even released.
01:11:12.000
He got me connected with them, and they delivered it to Denver, where I was filming this Comedy Central special.
01:11:18.000
I had this whole thing about being too high before the show.
01:11:35.000
You know, I did all the commercials for that when they rolled it out from 2014 or 15 when it came out.
0.95
01:11:41.000
For three or four years there, I did all the Challenger and Charger commercials.
01:11:46.000
Oh, pull up, look up Rawlings Dodge Law, L-A-W. So this was like two years into Fast and Lound.
01:11:56.000
Yeah, but I was their pitchman for that whole rollout.
01:12:01.000
I'll tell you a story about a fucking car that needs to be written.
0.99
01:12:19.000
I'm pulling odor for doing non-manly things at a Dodge, like eating a croissant.
01:12:33.000
2. And it came from the factory with some really kind of jacked up things about it.
01:12:45.000
While it was stolen, well actually I wrecked it, and then after that it was stolen.
01:12:49.000
And while it was stolen it was gone for nine months.
01:12:52.000
And I got paid off by the insurance company and everything.
01:12:55.000
And then somebody called me and says, hey, I'm a repo guy and I'm looking at your Dodge right now.
01:13:06.000
So it was like right next to this interstate trucking company through a row of hedges.
01:13:12.000
And from what we could tell is the truck drivers would come in with a big old bag of weed and put it in the trunk of the car, take their payment and roll away.
01:13:19.000
And the car itself had all these cameras on it facing it so they could see when the weed got dropped and then they'd go pick it up.
01:13:34.000
And so then while it was stolen, we find out later on after I steal it back, I literally went with the trailer and put it on there and took it and ended up making a deal with the insurance company and got to keep it.
01:13:51.000
Some local rapper guy made his rap video inside my car while it's stolen.
01:13:59.000
You know, with the weed smoke and flapping the $100 bills and doing donuts and stuff.
01:14:26.000
Now, did you not have a GPS tracking on it or anything?
1.00
01:14:30.000
The second they get into the car, they pull the interface and you're gone.
0.99
01:14:36.000
There's secondary like low jacks or whatever, but I didn't have that.
01:14:54.000
If it gets stolen and if you're smart, you're going to get better money from the insurance and it's worth it anyways.
01:15:03.000
Like, if my 65 Corvette got stolen, I'd be very bummed out.
01:15:09.000
I don't think I'd be able to handle that very well.
01:15:25.000
If I had an important comedy show at the store, I would bring that 65 Mustang.
0.98
01:15:30.000
Because it was a convertible, and it was loud as fuck, side pipes, just full America.
0.98
01:15:36.000
You know, just raging, roaring, V8, and it just felt alive.
0.99
01:15:47.000
But was it true radio delete, or it just didn't have one?
01:15:54.000
I bought it from RK Motors in Charlotte, and then I sent it to Steve Stroop, and Steve Stroop just decked that motherfucker out, put a supercharger on the LS1. It was, oh, wide-ass fucking fat tires.
0.98
01:16:08.000
Were you just waiting to get down the list far enough to actually have Gas Monkey build something?
0.99
01:16:15.000
I tell you, I'm more than ready to do something with you.
01:16:25.000
I've always wanted a 65 because there's something about that shape.
01:16:29.000
That's the perfect time when America was busting out of the 50s and into the 60s, and these shapes were getting radical.
1.00
01:17:03.000
I'm actually fixing to give up mine except for like three.
01:17:24.000
Now that I know you don't have corona, I'll take your whiskey.
01:17:35.000
The beautiful thing about those kind of cars is that someone always wants it.
0.99
01:17:40.000
Like, if you have a 1969 Boss Mustang, That is...
01:17:51.000
Yeah, but what I'm seeing in the market, being that I do that for business, is...
01:17:57.000
The 30s and 40s and almost the 50s have just dropped off the face of the planet.
01:18:11.000
Southern California, the birth of the hot rod.
1.00
01:18:19.000
I'm interested in like early 60s to like 71. Yeah.
01:18:29.000
I had a 63 Pontiac Bonneville Station Wagon 8-Lug 421 4-Speed.
01:18:37.000
And I bought it right here off of Congress Avenue one night.
01:18:44.000
Blue with blue interior, bucket seats, in a wagon.
01:19:01.000
It starts with a W and ends with a couple of consonants.
01:19:04.000
But anyways, he has a big show here called Lone Star Roundup every year.
01:19:15.000
It's usually a weekend before, a weekend after.
01:19:18.000
And it's a kick-ass old hot rod muscle car show.
01:19:24.000
And I saw this thing parked on the side of the road and I found the owner and I said, you know, you want to sell it?
01:19:29.000
So I snacked it up for eight grand right there because I knew what I had.
01:19:37.000
Do you have a picture of yours available online?
01:19:53.000
First of all, my memory sucks, and my frame of reference is extended.
01:19:58.000
You know, when you're 53, 15 years ago doesn't seem that long.
01:20:05.000
But that's a goddamn beautiful convertible.
0.99
01:20:18.000
Yeah, see, that's eight lug and the Bonneville, so it's the best trim package.
01:20:23.000
But mine had the 421, which was their three-deuce setup.
01:20:38.000
See, that is the kind of thing that only a muscle car guy would understand.
01:20:51.000
Isn't there a fuck about that goddamn station wagon?
1.00
01:20:53.000
Shit, I'll throw a freaking Indian blanket in the back of that and put my girl back there and show her what's up.
1.00
01:21:08.000
I don't know what the fucking word for it is.
0.99
01:21:15.000
Dennis Hopper had on the front of his motorcycle in Easy Rider.
01:21:28.000
No, Cleveland just said they're not going to be the Indians anymore.
01:21:33.000
I'm saying the Native Americans just got it back.
1.00
01:21:42.000
Probably the Cleveland baseball franchise, just like the Washington Redskins turned into the football team.
01:21:48.000
They said it's temporary until they can have a consulting group help them come up with a great name.
01:22:06.000
The Browns is their team, and that's named after a guy's last name.
01:22:12.000
Luckily it's named after a guy's name because that might be next.
01:22:16.000
Some people are hoping the Steamers gets picked up.
01:22:24.000
There's rock and roll and the WNBA team was named the Rockers.
01:22:28.000
Yeah, but what's going to happen when we get mad at Steel?
01:22:30.000
What's going to happen when we get mad at Steel and we don't like Steel anymore?
01:22:38.000
Richard, you're an old-school American type dude.
0.59
01:22:40.000
What do we do about all this political correctness?
0.99
01:22:43.000
I think everybody's got to fucking check themselves.
0.98
01:22:47.000
Do you think it's just too many people have the opportunity to complain?
01:22:54.000
With the internet and social media the way it is, I mean, like I said earlier in the broadcast, there's an ass for every seat.
1.00
01:23:01.000
Well, there's an idiot for every fucking thing out there.
1.00
01:23:04.000
And there's probably 10. So no matter what you come up with, there's going to be somebody that decides to side with you.
1.00
01:23:13.000
And now you've got a gang that's hanging out at the 7-11 telling people not to eat grape Slurpees.
01:23:22.000
I know what you're saying, but it's not a good time because...
01:23:27.000
When you allow people to complain, do you have children?
01:23:39.000
So you know what it's like to raise a young one.
01:23:56.000
It wasn't a very fun process for him or me, but he's a good kid.
01:24:01.000
He's working his way through life and trying to figure it out.
01:24:10.000
I'm fortunate that I had a fucked up childhood because it gave me motivation.
0.97
01:24:17.000
And then it's made me a much more attentive father.
01:24:26.000
But what I was going to get at is that when you're raising kids and you see them and they're young, they complain about shit that they shouldn't complain about.
0.98
01:24:43.000
And they make it seem like it's the end of the world.
01:24:45.000
Like if they can't watch TV at 8 o'clock at night.
01:25:18.000
If you want to complain about things all day long, that is time that you're not spending doing the things you want to do.
01:25:25.000
That is time that you're not spending improving your situation, improving your career, getting your life together, whatever the fuck you're trying to do.
0.99
01:25:41.000
Nonsensical things which is what a lot of what the internet is.
0.99
01:25:44.000
It's time you're not thinking about yourself and they don't realize it because a lot of these people were raised by people that were raised by other people that were idiots and this is what a lot of society is.
0.99
01:25:55.000
It's like you got your parents are morons and then you got to figure out how to not be like your parents and then you start raising kids your own like shit I got to figure out what they did to me and I want to not do that to these kids Some people don't get that, all right?
1.00
01:26:09.000
You get morons making morons who make morons, and those morons get a Twitter account, and they start just fucking just spewing.
1.00
01:26:19.000
And then other morons jump on board like, yeah, you're right, you're right, yeah, fuck them, they're all wrong.
1.00
01:26:25.000
And then you get all these idiots that find like a little echo chamber, and they all spew in the same hole.
1.00
01:26:34.000
We get some hate mail and stuff, you know, and hate stuff on the old Twitters and Instagrams and everything.
01:26:42.000
You must be a fan because you're fucking watching.
1.00
01:26:45.000
And you're probably sitting in your mom's basement in your gas muggy t-shirt talking shit.
1.00
01:26:50.000
I know that they want to bring you down because they look at you and you're having too much fun.
01:26:57.000
They want to bring you down because you're having too much fun.
01:27:06.000
Envy or anger is the only thing that poisons the vessel that holds it.
01:27:21.000
It's one of those things where if you think about someone all the time and you're like, fucking Richard Ron, what is that?
1.00
01:27:28.000
That guy sucks at this and his fucking bullshit and this.
0.99
01:27:32.000
They're paying so much attention hating you that if you looked at a pie chart of their life, like how much time do you spend loving and being a good friend and having a lot of laughs?
1.00
01:27:54.000
Anger is an acid that can do more to harm the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.
01:28:04.000
Some anger can fuck up the whole world if you're Genghis Khan.
01:28:08.000
He did a lot more to other people than his own vessel.
0.98
01:28:14.000
But you gotta give him a little bit of credit.
0.99
01:28:17.000
He said, I'm just gonna fucking come in here and take shit.
1.00
01:28:25.000
I have, but I haven't listened to a lot of them.
0.91
01:28:27.000
He has a series called The Wrath of the Khan and it is the craziest fucking depiction of Genghis Khan and his ancestors that I've ever heard or seen.
0.98
01:28:38.000
It's like five parts and it's fucking incredible.
0.99
01:28:43.000
That guy killed somewhere between 20 and 50 million people while he was alive.
0.99
01:28:57.000
It literally changed the carbon footprint of Earth.
01:29:02.000
Like, if you do a core sample, they're like, why is there so little carbon?
01:29:13.000
I know he's been on before, and I don't remember if you've asked this yet, but...
01:29:24.000
Like, he knows it enough that he tells the story.
01:29:30.000
You and I, we're fucking getting a pile of empty beers.
0.99
01:29:36.000
What he does is like an audio entertainment historical educational experience.
1.00
01:29:44.000
He's a national treasure, that guy, because he makes history interesting.
0.99
01:29:52.000
Most of them are free, the ones that are current for free, but they're so expensive to make and it takes so long to make them...
01:30:07.000
They're all incredible, but the Wrath of the Cons is definitely not free anymore.
01:30:17.000
So $10, and I'm telling you, it is some of the most amazing entertainment and history.
01:30:26.000
I'm doing it because I read a lot of that stuff.
0.97
01:30:29.000
Most people think I can't read, but I can read, so...
01:30:44.000
There's going to be a lot of people that need a hug because I just lowered the boom on your podcast that there's no fast and loud anymore.
01:31:00.000
And also, it lets you know that things don't last.
1.00
01:31:03.000
Like, you gotta fucking just pick up your shit.
1.00
01:31:07.000
Well, we're the first generation of that, you know, at our age.
1.00
01:31:11.000
You know, our parents and stuff, we're used to things just...
01:31:15.000
You know, let's watch 27 years of MASH or whatever, right?
01:31:20.000
And then you take it to the kids that are even 18 today.
01:31:25.000
Hell, if it lasts three hours, they're impressed.
1.00
01:31:50.000
I was watching some kid the other day at the mall, and his parents are in front of him, and he's like, fucking TikTok-ing.
0.99
01:32:04.000
When we were kids, you would listen to FM radio.
01:32:07.000
Yeah, and I hit the light post with a tennis ball.
01:32:14.000
Not only was Soul Train popular, but Dick Clark had that show.
01:32:23.000
American Bandstand was kind of before our time.
01:32:28.000
Was there something like that in the 70s or no?
01:32:34.000
But the thing is, high school for me is 81. I feel like coming of age is 81 to 85. Those are the years where...
01:32:46.000
So looking at Soul Train in my head, that's TikTok, though, right?
1.00
01:32:58.000
If you can find the credits to Danny Terrio's Dance Fever...
01:33:03.000
My mother owned a company with her boyfriend at the time that was called Funky Designs.
01:33:11.000
And they provided a lot of the dresses for the girls on Danny Terrio's Dance Fever.
01:33:19.000
I literally haven't thought of that for 40 years.
01:33:23.000
It just popped into my head for whatever reason.
01:33:32.000
Right after it was off the air, I stopped thinking about it.
01:33:34.000
So I don't know if it was every episode or not, but I know that she provided...
01:33:44.000
He was the Ryan Seacrest of 1979. So my mother's company put up a lot of the dresses and apparel for these girls.
1.00
01:34:17.000
Him and Ralph Macchio could be brothers, easily, right?
01:34:21.000
Are we sure Danny Terrio's not Simon Cowell as a young man?
01:34:29.000
Because I don't think Simon can move like that.
01:34:59.000
It's not a Nerf ball that you're climbing inside of.
01:35:01.000
This headline says he could sue, not that he did sue.
01:35:30.000
This is from a whistleblower from inside the company.
01:35:34.000
Which, if this is true, it is a little extreme.
01:35:37.000
Like, the e-bike I have only goes to 20 miles an hour.
01:35:50.000
Yeah, I've been trying to learn how to ride my Onewheel.
1.00
01:35:55.000
Yeah, Rich Benoit from Rich Rebuilds brought us one, right?
01:36:13.000
Rich Rebuilds has a great YouTube show because he's basically one of the very first guys that does electric cars and takes total Teslas and he'll take the engine out of this one and he'll put it in the body of that one and he's gone way out of his way to sort of highlight the fact that these fucking cars are impossible for a regular person to fix.
0.97
01:36:36.000
So then he built his own garage in Boston called the Electric Garage.
01:36:54.000
He had to jury rig some shit in his car to even get it to work.
0.97
01:36:59.000
And he had to buy the key from the dude who owned the car.
0.99
01:37:03.000
He had to find the guy who originally owned it.
01:37:07.000
He couldn't go to Tesla and say, Hey, I bought this car.
01:37:09.000
And then I bought another car, put the engine in that one.
01:37:13.000
Like if you went to Chevy and you said, hey, I bought a 2005 Z06 and I swapped the engine out with a fucking 2015 Z06 and this and that.
01:37:35.000
It's getting a little crazy now with all this electronics.
01:37:38.000
Because they're controlling something that is potentially profitable, so they want to make their profit on it.
01:37:44.000
So they might work with you, but they might charge you $2,000 for that key.
01:38:04.000
Oh, we lost the key to the Rover the other day and they want $900 to replace the car we own.
01:38:18.000
Is it one of those keys that has a little LCD where you can change the songs on?
0.99
01:38:51.000
Every car is going to know where every other car is.
01:39:00.000
If you need a car, it's going to encourage people to take public transportation because, like, why do I even need a car if I can't even drive it?
01:39:08.000
I'll just start using public cars or public transportation.
01:39:12.000
What if you're in a hurry or you want to go fast or you want to do a burnout?
01:39:26.000
But I mean, like California saying, they want 20, 35 only electric cars.
01:39:38.000
Well, now he's probably got a real rough road of it when they busted him eating dinner inside without a mask.
0.99
01:39:47.000
A Gavin Newsom recall that's at 800,000 signatures so far.
01:39:53.000
If you go to recallgavin.com, I don't know which one it is, but...
01:40:00.000
That idea that you're going to stop in 2035, the problem is there's people that are working right now on carbon...
01:40:14.000
He fucked up with a lot of things, but he really fucked up getting caught in that restaurant with no mask on, inside, sitting right next to each other.
1.00
01:40:23.000
They've got nearly half of what they need is what that is.
01:40:32.000
If I can't go out and smell the gasoline and hear the roar and feel the car...
01:40:40.000
I think guys who grew up like you and I did when we were kids...
01:40:57.000
And we would all just watch him drive by like, wow...
01:41:01.000
And his license plate was chirps, because he would, like, chirp the gears as he was going through first or second.
01:41:07.000
And we would all just sit there when he drove by, like, wow, there it is.
01:41:12.000
For me, it was a part of those kind of cars, those muscle cars from the 60s and early 70s.
01:41:35.000
Do you remember the vans where people used to have Conan the Barbarian?
0.95
01:41:38.000
Like the fucking Frank Rosetta thing spray-painted on the side?
01:41:42.000
Yeah, the fire-breathing dragon with the dude on there with the sword.
0.99
01:41:47.000
Yeah, there was a bunch of those vans from that day that were custom vans that were made with those fantasy paintings on them.
01:42:25.000
Maybe there's, like, a value in being more vanning.
01:42:27.000
We could spray paint one of those cool Mercedes vans, too.
01:42:32.000
But the thing is, like, these have the whole side, like, no windows.
01:42:35.000
I had one of these when I delivered newspapers.
01:42:39.000
I had a GMC. Why did we have such parallel lives?
01:42:41.000
I delivered newspapers as a kid from the time I was eight until I was, well, I left home.
01:42:49.000
Back then, you had a newspaper in the morning and in the evening.
01:42:55.000
You had an evening, a morning paper and an evening paper.
01:42:58.000
And so my dad would get me up at like, oh, three o'clock in the morning.
01:43:03.000
No matter what the weather, I'd put on whatever gear and I'd sit in the backseat of a four-door Dodge and throw...
01:43:09.000
I'd wrap the newspapers or rubber band them and throw them into the front.
01:43:18.000
And I had to race home from school to get back in the car and do it again after he finished his job as a produce manager.
01:43:25.000
And then you said something else earlier that we've both done work to the gas station.
01:43:31.000
Newspaper, the best thing about delivering newspapers for me was that you didn't really have to talk to anybody.
01:43:40.000
I would just, I would listen to the morning radio and Sometimes nothing at all.
01:43:56.000
And then I had a few older ladies in particular where I'd deliver their newspaper inside their door.
1.00
01:44:07.000
They didn't want to go out to the driveway to get the newspaper.
01:44:09.000
Like, would you put it inside the screen door?
1.00
01:44:14.000
But do you remember the little ticket book where you collected and you'd have to go knock on people's door on Saturday afternoon and be like, dude, you owe me $2.
0.92
01:44:23.000
The ticket book was a bummer because guys would get mad at you because they owed money for getting the fucking newspaper delivered.
0.67
01:44:29.000
And they said, you know, there was about two Saturdays ago I didn't get the supplemental with all the coupons.
0.97
01:44:37.000
That's because I took it out because you owe me money, boo.
01:44:40.000
Listen, I don't know what you're talking about, man.
01:44:43.000
I'm here every morning at your house delivering you a newspaper.
01:44:47.000
But it taught me a lot about discipline because it was a 365-day-a-year job.
01:44:55.000
I did not have a single day off delivering newspapers unless I had a fight.
01:45:11.000
Every day I was up at 4.30 in the morning and I'd go to the dispatch and I'd get my papers and I'd do my route.
01:45:18.000
And I was done somewhere around 8. Same thing here.
01:45:24.000
Because I can get money without having to have a boss hanging over my fucking shoulder every day.
0.99
01:45:30.000
Growing up in a fucked up childhood, it was not good for listening to authority.
1.00
01:45:47.000
There was a job where you didn't have to talk to me.
01:45:52.000
And then learning how to discipline myself further with this thing where it's like, just shut the fuck up and do it.
0.99
01:46:10.000
Because learning how to grind, that was a big part of my childhood.
01:46:17.000
Learning how to just show up, deliver the newspapers, and go home and go back to bed and take a nap.
01:46:36.000
But the good thing is, you know, I knew where all the cars were.
01:46:40.000
You know, throwing newspapers, I'm driving that neighborhood every day.
01:46:44.000
You know, I see that garage door up, I'm like, eh, that might be an RSSS. I don't know.
0.85
01:46:52.000
Well, when I was in high school, there was a few kids that were real hard work.
01:46:55.000
Luckily, that's the other thing about New England, growing up in Boston.
01:47:02.000
And it's because of the fact that you have to shovel your fucking driveway or you can't get out.
0.99
01:47:38.000
I've been here for four months, and I was like, get out of here.
0.99
01:47:59.000
Oh, Texas is going to be the comedian capital of the world.
01:48:04.000
Well, it's always been the country music and the barbecue capital of Texas, so do we go for a comedian capital?
01:48:10.000
Well, we need a spot, and we don't have a spot right now.
01:48:17.000
And I've been doing these shows with Dave Chappelle at Stubbs BBQ in town over the last few weeks.
01:48:26.000
We COVID test the whole crowd, so the whole crowd can be jammed in there.
01:48:34.000
Well, tomorrow night and Wednesday are the next two nights.
01:48:53.000
But anyway, the point is, comics have been already coming here.
01:49:04.000
Tom Segura is going to move here, but he just broke his arm and his leg.
0.99
01:49:16.000
Blew his patella tendon out, then he fell, snapped his arm in half.
01:49:33.000
But once it's all done, he said he'll actually be stronger than he was before the injury.
01:49:44.000
I told Michael, let them pump you up with steroids.
1.00
01:50:05.000
I mean, why are you going to take that taxation that you guys have out there?
01:50:10.000
There's a vibe here that I think is really nice.
01:50:17.000
People ask me all the time, because I travel a lot, they're like, Dude, where would you live?
01:50:27.000
But it was hard talking anybody else in my family into it because L.A. was so nice to us until the pandemic.
01:50:36.000
I took the kids down here once and they're like, we can go into a restaurant inside?
01:51:02.000
Can you get direct out of Austin to LA? I don't know.
01:51:06.000
I think you have to connect through Houston or Dallas.
01:51:09.000
I mean, the pandemic changed a lot of flights everywhere, but there's at least one on a couple different airlines.
01:51:16.000
Out of Dallas, you can get a flight to LA or New York about every hour.
01:51:31.000
The good thing about it being semi-difficult is it's going to discourage pussies.
0.99
01:51:40.000
People that are afraid of a 40-minute flight.
0.98
01:51:45.000
Well, see, my problem was 35 freeway between Austin and Dallas.
01:51:52.000
They've been working on that fucker since I was born.
1.00
01:51:55.000
It's been under construction since I was born.
1.00
01:51:58.000
And it's just the worst road, the worst everything, speed traps everywhere.
01:52:13.000
How's a 40-minute flight when it's a three-hour drive?
01:52:21.000
I mean, that's what it is to Vegas from L.A., you know?
01:52:25.000
Yeah, but Vegas is like four hours if you pedal to the metal.
01:52:31.000
But I mean, I literally live walking distance from the front door of the airport.
01:52:39.000
But it sucks coming down 35 or going up it.
0.91
01:52:42.000
There's always construction, always crab, and it has been for 50 freaking years.
0.93
01:52:54.000
If you think you know what barbecue tastes like, you don't know shit.
1.00
01:53:02.000
Matt Pittman can throw down something a little better.
01:53:09.000
I'd be happy to have you cook for me, but don't you dare disparage Terry Black's.
01:53:14.000
I have not had Terry Black's, so I do not know.
01:53:24.000
I'm like, how can you say that in a place that has the most insane barbecue ever?
01:53:34.000
It must be extra long because you've got that six foot social distancing thing.
0.89
01:53:56.000
Onnit hired someone to wait in line so we could get food.
01:54:00.000
Oh, so I got a question on that stuff because I hear you talking about it.
01:54:14.000
They did two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies at the Boston Center for Memory.
01:54:19.000
And they showed increase in verbal acuity, your ability to remember words, your ability to form sentences, increase in your memory, and there's a few other things.
01:54:35.000
Oh, alpha flow state, which I don't know how they measure.
01:54:47.000
If you're hungover, your brain doesn't work as well.
01:54:53.000
My brain does not work that good when I'm tired.
01:54:56.000
My brain does not work that good if I worked out too hard and then I come here.
01:55:02.000
And anybody who's listening to this podcast will know that.
1.00
01:55:05.000
There's days that I'm very articulate, and there's days that I sound like a fucking idiot.
1.00
01:55:09.000
And that's just the average of being a person and living a stressful life.
1.00
01:55:24.000
There's another company that makes this thing called Neuro One.
01:55:28.000
That's Bill Romanowski, the football player's company.
01:55:35.000
And then there's another one called True Brain.
01:55:39.000
But the company that I am one of the owners of is Onnit, and we make one too.
01:55:46.000
And I think it's the best one that I've ever used, but opinions vary.
01:55:54.000
Because it's the only one that I know of that's had two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that showed efficacy.
01:56:03.000
It does improve your ability to form sentences.
01:56:09.000
If you're a person and you don't have a very difficult job that makes you...
01:56:27.000
So I'm going to grab, because you've got some samples out there, I'm going to grab a bunch of those.
01:56:35.000
Another thing that's good because you just started working out is the Shroom Tech.
01:56:47.000
Or they first started using them, like, publicly.
01:56:51.000
And they started breaking all these records in track and field.
01:56:54.000
And they're breaking all these records in terms of endurance sports.
01:57:02.000
There was something about cordyceps mushrooms.
1.00
01:57:05.000
I'm trying to remember the benefits that they found from it.
0.99
01:57:11.000
And then other athletes started finding out about it.
01:57:14.000
But it increases your ability to absorb oxygen and increases your endurance.
01:57:20.000
Yeah, you've talked about that breathing thing, too.
0.99
01:57:34.000
Cordyceps are thought to increase the body's production of the molecule adenosine triphosate, which is essential for delivering energy to the muscles.
0.99
01:57:49.000
It may improve the way your body uses oxygen, especially during exercise.
01:57:54.000
Okay, and not to get on a commercial and stuff that you kick and love, but...
01:58:12.000
Because I thought it's supposed to calm you down, and then you're supposed to get up.
01:58:18.000
What's in the CBD energy drinks from Kill Cliff?
01:58:25.000
25 milligrams of CBD, which is definitely good for you.
01:58:28.000
And there's a lot of electrolytes that are really good for you.
01:58:31.000
But I don't think the energy comes from a lot of caffeine.
01:58:34.000
I think it's more B vitamins and stuff like that, which is good for you.
01:58:38.000
Look, CBD, however you can get it, whether it's from tinctures, drops, or I like gummies, that shit is just great for you.
0.98
01:58:48.000
The big problem, there's a lot of problems people have, but one of the big ones is inflammation.
0.96
01:58:53.000
Anything you can do to reduce inflammation in your life is good.
01:58:58.000
Whether it's through diet change or through CBD construction.
01:59:12.000
Phytocannabinoids or plant cannabinoids bind with cannabinoid receptors and send a message to the body to do certain things like help regulate motor control, immune function, reproduction, sleep, appetite, mood, pleasure, pain, fertility, memory,
01:59:30.000
If you want and you have the time, you can get into it and try to figure out what the fuck benefit you would get from CBD. But for me, it's a no-brainer.
0.64
01:59:41.000
It's 100% beneficial to me in terms of soreness, sore joints and weird shit that happens to my body from just beating it up.
02:00:10.000
There's nothing wrong with that either, if you want to do it that way.
02:00:26.000
Till Death Do Us Part was invented when they were about 30. It was death.
0.58
02:00:50.000
They're probably just too busy working to the death with no vitamins.
02:00:55.000
Whoever figured out vitamins, how to take them, that guy changed everything.
02:01:00.000
But didn't you just get your vitamins from the farm field?
02:01:04.000
Maybe that's why people died at 30. They're eating fucking shitty corn and wheat, just no vitamins, just passing out.
02:01:14.000
Falling over, hitting their head on rocks.
1.00
02:01:15.000
I just recently got a gym so I don't understand all this workout stuff.
02:01:32.000
I've rubbed my elbow raw on your fucking table.
1.00
02:01:48.000
So when you're doing your podcast, is the podcast going to be similar to what you're talking about for a television show, like food, travel, the whole deer, or are you going to just talk about life?
02:01:59.000
I think it's going to be a little bit of everything, but I'm also going to take people out of the room, so to speak, and be able to talk about, okay, I did this on Tuesday.
02:02:07.000
Oh, and you're going to go on the road with recordings that you already have.
02:02:36.000
Not a part of this show that I'm nervous about.
02:02:39.000
I don't even think I'm getting pinged on the $25,000 per occurrence with my contract with Discovery yet.
02:02:46.000
So if they were the best boss in the world, and they treated me like gold because I was their star, then why would they put it in the contract that I couldn't talk about them unless it was favorably or it would cost $25,000?
0.99
02:03:13.000
Think about throwing down $25,000 right now, right here, and just being like, But I'm not sure where it stops.
02:03:33.000
I don't think that that's a deal that you would take, sir.
02:03:40.000
I'd be like, I don't know what to do then.
1.00
02:03:42.000
If I can't talk shit, what am I going to do?
0.99
02:03:44.000
So I get away from you, but I can't talk shit?
1.00
02:03:48.000
I think I probably have something in the Spotify contract if I went and looked at it.
02:04:04.000
I just saw the first one the other day when me and my lovely wife got married about a year ago.
02:04:13.000
I'm the guy on TV, so I hate it, but we have to deal with the financial aspects of, you know, getting married.
02:04:22.000
So I hand her, you know, like maybe 50 pages, contract, prenup, that kind of thing.
02:04:28.000
And of course, she was married to a billionaire.
02:04:32.000
And she goes, oh, I'm glad you brought that up.
1.00
02:04:49.000
Ah, we wanted that, but, you know, the lawyers dictate other things.
1.00
02:04:57.000
Otherwise you would be fucked with this restaurant.
0.98
02:04:59.000
Ah, she's the best thing in my life, and the restaurant's the worst thing in my life, so I'm doing good.
0.98
02:05:08.000
It's a weird thing when people get involved with businesses.
02:05:14.000
I could get more if I have someone who negotiates better for me.
0.92
02:05:20.000
Yeah, but I found out that, you know, I don't know if you have an agent or a manager and all that shit.
1.00
02:05:32.000
You're in a different business than me, so it's different.
02:05:36.000
I'm in the comedy business, and then the podcast thing sort of came along along the way.
02:05:42.000
But managers are very important in comedy, and they're very important even in podcasts.
02:05:50.000
You need someone who's going to coordinate with an agent that sells ads.
02:05:56.000
And someone who does the business aspects of it.
1.00
02:06:00.000
Then you're going to be thinking about that on your own.
1.00
02:06:02.000
And you only have, you know, we talked about the slice of the pie.
02:06:07.000
You can't be filling that brain space up with how much money should me undies give me.
02:06:15.000
If you want to do your best work, this is my opinion, you can think about optimizing the amount of profit you do, but the problem with that is oftentimes when you do that, you do that at an expense.
02:06:26.000
The expense is the quality of the work you do, because you're thinking about money instead of thinking about being you, and being free, and then concentrating on doing the best job you can as an entertainer.
02:06:37.000
I agree, but what about the fact that when you reach a certain level...
02:06:40.000
Like you and I have, where people come to you and they're like, hey, I'm the CEO of blah, or I'm the CEO of this.
02:06:51.000
And then you have to turn it over and give up 10, 20% between the two.
02:06:58.000
I see where you're coming from, but here's my perspective.
02:07:00.000
The only reason why I am in the position that I'm in now is because I have these relationships, and they helped me get to where I am, and we're in it for the long haul.
02:07:15.000
What I notice is the bad vibes of not having the same agent, or the bad vibes of...
02:07:21.000
I've had the same manager since I was an open mic comedian.
02:07:31.000
It's beneficial for them and it's beneficial for...
02:07:32.000
So companies are coming to me, but why am I me?
02:07:36.000
I'm me because I worked with them and they helped me become me.
02:07:40.000
And one of the ways they helped me become me is by alleviating concerns about money and about business.
02:07:50.000
I like to think about important shit, like muscle cars and talking shit.
1.00
02:07:57.000
So I don't want to think about percentages and fucking long haul stuff.
0.83
02:08:15.000
Some of them bring me deals, but the point is, if it wasn't for them coordinating and facilitating, it wouldn't happen.
02:08:26.000
I'm not going to be a guy who goes out and chases down deals.
02:08:29.000
Even if someone comes to me, I'm not going to know how to negotiate or how to do it right.
02:08:34.000
I will wind up getting far less money than the 10% I give them.
02:08:42.000
You just have to think about it in terms of, instead of thinking about, oh, I've got to get what I can, think about it in terms of, like, it's feast or famine.
02:09:00.000
I don't want to think, well, I need more, save more, and if I got rid of them, I would have more.
02:09:24.000
Most of my life coming up through what I came up through in the last 18 years was I'd see somebody, meet somebody, even yourself.
02:09:49.000
For comedians, I always recommend find someone that you can trust.
02:10:00.000
I'm not interested in jumping around with different managers.
02:10:05.000
I only kept the same all the way through until it was done.
02:10:09.000
But the problem was other people were coming to you with things, and they weren't bringing you these things, but they were getting the percentage.
02:10:17.000
In close to 10 years, I had my team bring me one deal out of 50. Well, that's not good.
02:10:29.000
And they're pissed the fuck off right now that I'm saying that out loud.
0.93
02:10:35.000
Because those deals came through me, and I turned it over to them.
02:10:43.000
Well, I think managers are a lot like TV dance show hosts.
02:10:58.000
There's going to be people that are amazing at it, and there's going to be people that suck.
0.97
02:11:02.000
And I have the exact opposite experience as you.
02:11:06.000
I get like one or two every now and then come to me, but most of the offers that I get come through my management.
02:11:18.000
If someone comes to me with an idea for a business, I'm like, I don't talk to people.
02:11:26.000
What I'm saying is business-wise, I think that there's a loyalty to a partnership.
02:11:33.000
But again, this is the comedian-management relationship.
02:11:39.000
It's a different relationship because I do a lot of live gigs.
02:11:50.000
And it's a different gig because then you're on television so people come to you and you're like, what are these management people doing for me?
02:11:58.000
They're just taking a piece of money I would already get.
02:12:04.000
I'd probably pay double the amount if they brought me something.
02:12:24.000
I've had the same agent for 14 years, and I've had the same manager for 30, no, 29 years.
0.76
02:12:37.000
I'm just talking from my feelings about those kind of relationships.
02:12:44.000
Like, a lot of times people start thinking, you know, I deserve more, I'm bringing more.
02:12:52.000
I'm who I am because of the relationships that I have with all these other people that have allowed me to be me.
02:13:00.000
I'm just saying that If something comes by way, then why do you pay if it came through you?
0.99
02:13:11.000
Well, because you don't want to do the fucking negotiation, man.
0.99
02:13:17.000
Just because it comes to you, just because an opportunity comes to you from someone else, you don't want...
02:13:23.000
Those people that are with you, agents and managers...
02:13:30.000
Hey, this guy, he says he wants to do something.
02:13:37.000
If you had to think, the 10% that you would save by thinking about it, that money, that's real.
02:13:53.000
See, I'm defending my own personal situation, which is like very...
02:14:11.000
Look, the agent and manager situation with an artist is one of the most tumultuous, controversial relationships in all show business.
02:14:26.000
Fuck yeah, CAA. I don't know what that stands for, but I can think of something.
0.99
02:14:31.000
But these fuckers did not even tell me that my agent no longer worked there.
0.99
02:14:46.000
So your agent that you had a relationship with...
02:14:54.000
And they didn't tell you for a whole year?
1.00
02:15:19.000
So, they never even told me that he was gone, never told me shit, and never gave me any replacement.
0.88
02:15:26.000
I think that a lot of these places, like whether it's CAA or any big place, they have so many artists and so many deals and so many agents.
02:15:56.000
Here's how the relationship works with comedians.
02:16:00.000
You have a manager, and the manager talks to the agent.
02:16:08.000
I have a long relationship with my agent, but...
02:16:16.000
They don't have a full-time relationship with you.
02:16:19.000
You have a relationship with the agency, but the relationship you have with the management company is permanent, essentially.
02:16:29.000
But a lot of these places, whether it's figure out the name, whatever name you want, what they're doing is they're trying to accumulate as much talent as possible.
02:16:41.000
And then some of them work out and some of them don't.
02:16:46.000
They just throw enough shit against the wall for the lack of a better metaphor.
0.99
02:17:03.000
But it's a fucking weird business for them, too.
0.97
02:17:06.000
I can't imagine being in a business where I relied on someone like me.
0.97
02:17:33.000
I mean, you're relying on me to pay your mortgage.
02:17:37.000
You're relying on me to be successful so that you can...
02:17:44.000
Guys like you and I, we don't want to rely on other people.
02:17:49.000
I don't even want to rely on myself sometimes.
1.00
02:18:03.000
We just complained about show business during the pandemic.
02:18:08.000
Because most people are like, I just want to open up my fucking restaurant, you piece of shit.
1.00
02:18:16.000
Those people are getting screwed over because the one place that people should be going to right now when there's a health crisis is a fucking gym and they're being shut down.
1.00
02:18:27.000
There's ways to get away from that and they're not letting them.
0.99
02:18:34.000
Just such a weird time to the point where it doesn't seem real.
0.98
02:18:38.000
Like, you wake up in the morning and, you know, you brush your teeth, you go, what is going on today?
02:18:47.000
New Jersey gym, famed for defined COVID-19 lockdown, orders, fines, more than 1.2 million?
02:19:11.000
The gym has more than 60 citations, totally more than $1.2 million, despite not having a single infection linked to the business after more than 83,000 visits.
0.99
02:19:24.000
Yeah, they're not going to have that problem with me because I don't go to the gym.
1.00
02:19:30.000
And what's going on with him is, he keeps saying, like, right there, fuck you, Murphy.
1.00
02:20:14.000
And I think if we can get as many people who can chip in to chip in and pay this guy's fees.
02:20:43.000
There's a we stand with their gym, but I don't think it's operated by them, so I don't know.
02:20:51.000
If you could figure out where the money needs to go, I'm in and he's in.
02:21:13.000
He's got a $100,000 goal, but that's before he realized that he was up to $1.2 million.
02:21:30.000
It's spelled A-T-I-L-I-S. B-E-L-M-A-W-R. I guess that's his name.
0.58
02:21:56.000
It's like, gyms are ridiculous to close down.
1.00
02:21:59.000
People are trying to get healthy, you fuck.
1.00
02:22:02.000
And you look at the, there's a pie chart they've showed of traceable COVID infections.
1.00
02:22:09.000
And the restaurant thing is so infuriating to restaurant owners because it's only 3%.
02:22:13.000
3% out of 100, 3 are at these restaurants, but yet more people are getting infected at grocery stores, more people are getting infected at hotels, all these different places that are open and essential.
02:22:39.000
I saw the face of Tony Hinchcliffe the other day.
02:23:01.000
He needs to get himself some RevTown jeans.
1.00
02:23:11.000
How many years can you drink like that and just be fine?
02:23:30.000
These light beers, they don't seem to have the same kind of kick.
02:23:35.000
I had not discovered the trend until earlier this year.
02:23:45.000
I actually went to a football game and I was like, what the fuck is this?
0.99
02:24:06.000
People give me so much of a hard time from Zima.
1.00
02:24:17.000
I think the guy who started Mike Hard Lemonade, he's a very successful businessman.
02:24:26.000
Zima's been gone since 2008 with a re-release two years ago somehow.
0.97
02:24:32.000
I was at the Improv in Hollywood and John Henson gave me so much shit for drinking a Zima.
0.96
02:24:43.000
If I gave you one right now, you'd have to chug the whole thing or your pussy.
1.00
02:24:49.000
Well, whatever Terry Virts gave us, this Lafrig...
1.00
02:25:00.000
When I was serving at a restaurant, that'd be one of the ones I would go to for some business guys.
02:25:07.000
It's got this weird peaty sort of boggy fucking swamp taste.
0.98
02:25:18.000
You know who's got the best sort of peaty bog thing going on?
02:25:30.000
It's interesting how people like different styles of whiskey.
02:25:35.000
There's people that are whiskey taste testers the same way a sommelier is a wine tester.
02:25:49.000
Richard Rawlings, back, drain the dragon, back in action.
02:25:59.000
When we get that spot with weed, that'll be a great day.
0.99
02:26:02.000
Where you can have a weed sommelier, give you a nice little taste test.
02:26:06.000
I think people get a little too fucking wrapped up.
0.97
02:26:09.000
That's because you get too high, but if you could just take one little taste of a little blueberry or something or another.
02:26:33.000
So like if the mad scientist gets some terpene stuff, that can make, you know, like a steak taste better.
02:26:38.000
Well, you know, there was an article that came out today in the news feed that was showing that there's something in the flavors of vaping is what's fucking people up.
02:26:59.000
But I thought the vaping thing introduces too much liquid to your lung or some shit.
0.97
02:27:04.000
I think the issue, there's a multi-fold issue.
0.95
02:27:10.000
Flavors added to vaping devices can damage the heart.
02:27:16.000
The appealing array of fruit and candy flavors that entice millions of young people to take up vaping can harm their hearts.
02:27:23.000
A preclinical study by the University of South Florida.
02:27:28.000
They're going down there to do coke and drink tequila.
1.00
02:27:33.000
Mounting studies indicate that the nicotine and other chemicals delivered by vaping, while generally less toxic than conventional cigarettes, can damage the lungs and heart.
02:27:44.000
But so far, there has been no clear understanding about what happens when the vaporized flavoring molecules and flavored vaping products, after being inhaled, enter the bloodstream and reach the heart.
1.00
02:27:57.000
I think part of the issue is also that these motherfuckers are doing that shit all day.
1.00
02:28:19.000
It's also the quality of the oils that they're using to make the vape.
0.98
02:28:24.000
Like, they can use some shit quality and that stuff can...
0.96
02:28:40.000
How good does it feel to pee when you have to pee?
02:28:49.000
It's like sometimes you sit there and you're taking a pee and you're just like, wow, this feels really good.
02:28:55.000
Yeah, when you really have to go and you finally get in, you're like, oh.
02:29:15.000
I'm afraid to even bring this one up because I don't think we should do it, but it is pretty funny.
02:29:29.000
Okay, so I've been challenged by somebody on my...
0.97
02:29:40.000
Somebody said that you guys need to recite the lyrics.
02:29:58.000
Yeah, there's a lot of good tattooists, though.
02:30:14.000
So if there's a good tattoo person out there, I would like to go get a tattoo this evening.
02:30:21.000
Well, the problem is the show's not going to come out until tomorrow, so we're going to have to put it on Twitter.
02:30:27.000
Well, I've got to stay until tomorrow because you said I'm going to dinner with you.
02:30:30.000
Put up your tattoos, take a photo of it, put it on Instagram, and say, hey, I'm in Austin.
02:30:50.000
Let's just talk about the last line of the song.
02:31:09.000
Okay, so my new big thing I was going to ask about this is, you know, you're saying you want 1,000 acres.
02:31:51.000
That is a pandemic vehicle if I ever saw one.
1.00
02:31:54.000
So I want one of those fuckers and I want to drive around.
0.99
02:31:56.000
I would love to drive from Dallas, Texas all the way to Brazil.
1.00
02:32:02.000
What kind of gas tank does that thing have?
0.99
02:32:20.000
Yeah, and I don't even know this company, so I'm not even punting them for freaking money.
02:32:25.000
No, I don't know them either, but we've talked about them multiple times.
02:32:39.000
So if you're listening to Earth Roamer, I need it for free.
02:32:42.000
There's certain people that get to a certain point in their life where they're like, why am I just staying in one spot?
02:33:13.000
We had 26 in our original tank and then 40 in our backup tank for the Cannonball Run.
02:33:31.000
If you're one of those people that just doesn't want to live in an apartment, you just want to travel around.
1.00
02:33:36.000
You get one of those, and you go take the Joe Rogan experience on the road.
1.00
02:33:42.000
You're meeting with different people and different pieces of life.
02:33:48.000
And your gas monkey experience on the road.
1.00
02:33:54.000
I wouldn't mind doing it like what Jamie said with a van, knowing it can't go that far.
02:34:05.000
You're going to go from Austin to San Antonio to Houston to San Antonio to Dallas.
0.99
02:34:31.000
Oh, shit, 750, 800. Gun safe in the back cabinet.
1.00
02:34:40.000
Oh, they got a FLIR infrared camera to spot UFOs.
02:34:54.000
I... Shit, how do I say this without sounding like a complete insane motherfucker?
1.00
02:35:17.000
There's a lot of things that are unidentified, but it could be Russian, Chinese.
02:35:23.000
But I also don't think that we were ever landed on the moon.
02:35:31.000
I don't think we landed on the moon for a long time.
02:35:38.000
Talking to smart people that actually have enough data about what happened.
02:35:45.000
It's not that it's impossible that it was faked.
02:35:48.000
It's that I really have no business saying it was faked.
02:35:52.000
Because if anybody's going to trust me about anything...
02:35:59.000
And if I'm honest about that, I have not put enough time or effort into actually understanding and studying all the data that's available that indicates that we did go to the moon.
02:36:13.000
I think it's fun and it's enticing to just say, I don't think we went to the moon.
02:36:22.000
And I've even argued it successfully based on a lot of different variables.
02:36:26.000
But I think at the end of the day, I don't really know what I'm talking about unless I want to, like, study.
02:36:34.000
What they did, how they figured out how to get people on the moon, how they figured out how to get people back.
0.98
02:36:41.000
Unless I want to do that, I really should shut the fuck up.
0.98
02:36:45.000
I really think that because I think it's a complex issue, and I think it's so simple to look at a complex issue and just say, I believe this, or I believe that.
02:36:56.000
But you really shouldn't say that unless there's a reason why you believe something.
02:37:00.000
And sometimes people believe things because it sounds more fun or because it's more convenient or because they're more conspiratorially oriented.
02:37:07.000
It seems like more exciting to believe in the conspiracy.
02:37:11.000
All the things that I'm saying don't mean that conspiracies don't exist or don't mean even that that conspiracy doesn't exist.
0.94
02:37:18.000
But it's just that if you want to call bullshit, you should know what you're talking about.
0.96
02:37:35.000
We are hunters and gatherers at our core from the beginning of human.
02:37:41.000
And if we went to someplace that no one else has ever gone, we would not stop.
02:37:50.000
We would keep going there and we would take it over even if it was worthless because we just want at our core being.
02:38:00.000
And so my thought process is not are they wrong?
02:38:06.000
My thought process is if that really happened, then We'd have W Hotel on the moon right now.
02:38:20.000
And what you're saying is, if we would have bumped, we would have definitely bumped.
02:38:29.000
There's a high likelihood that if we went to the moon, that we would continue to explore space and we would advance on the type of travel that we use to go to the moon.
02:38:49.000
And you look at when Kennedy said, we will land a man on the moon in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy but because they are hard.
0.97
02:38:59.000
In 1969, you know, when they landed a man on the moon, cars drove like shit, TVs were useless, there was so much technology that was nonsense.
02:39:10.000
In 2020, we still can't really put a man on the moon right now.
0.73
02:39:17.000
That doesn't mean they didn't put a man on the moon.
02:39:20.000
I used to think it meant they didn't put a man on the moon.
02:39:22.000
But now what I think is it's very expensive and very difficult to put a man on the moon.
02:39:32.000
They said they did, and I don't know if they did or didn't, realistically.
02:39:37.000
But I do know that they haven't invested the same kind of money that they used to win the space race against the Russians.
02:39:43.000
They haven't invested that kind of money in the same way, like with this competitive American spirit behind it.
02:39:50.000
And that's allegedly what allowed them to get to the moon and to do it before the Russians could.
0.79
02:39:56.000
Even though the Russians were the first people in space, the Russians had all these different firsts.
02:40:00.000
First man in space, first animal in space, first satellite in space.
02:40:09.000
But even the first man in space, I believe they put a man in space.
02:40:13.000
But the problem with their claim is they released video footage that...
02:40:26.000
But the footage that they used, what they showed on television, was 100% bullshit.
0.89
02:40:32.000
The footage was like a recreation of this guy in space.
0.98
02:40:35.000
Because there's shadows, so there's a light here and a light here.
02:40:40.000
But the actual module, whatever the capsule was, they launched him into space.
02:40:46.000
It was way too small to have a conventional camera from 1967 or whatever the fuck it was.
02:40:58.000
The question is, have they gone all the way to another body like the moon and returned?
02:41:28.000
During that thinking, that's when people advance technology and literature and their understanding of the world itself.
02:41:36.000
That's where Galileo came up with his ideas about the universe itself and that the Earth wasn't the center of that universe.
02:41:45.000
It's actually step removed from hunter and gatherer, which is Agriculture.
02:41:50.000
Agriculture which allows cities and these places where people can be safe and they have accumulated supplies of food so they can think about things.
02:41:59.000
So this is what's required to go to the moon.
0.92
02:42:02.000
The hunter-gatherer thing, this is why it falls apart because hunter and gatherers would never go to the fucking moon in the first place.
0.98
02:42:09.000
You have time to spend a couple of weeks flying to another fucking rock that's hovering over the earth.
1.00
02:42:19.000
On top of that, do you know that the moon's atmosphere is the most perfect for glowing the most perfect bud in the world?
02:42:57.000
You need giant tanks of gases that are native to Earth that don't exist on the moon.
02:43:02.000
I see what you're saying about the hunter-gatherer thing, and I see how you think that way.
02:43:14.000
We'd go up there and hang out and dip in the pool.
02:43:19.000
Maybe they would be too busy with the Cold War.
02:43:21.000
Maybe they'd be too busy with all the different problems they had with the Vietnam War.
02:43:27.000
Maybe they would be too busy trying to fund education and healthcare.
0.96
02:43:32.000
They don't have the money to fucking keep putting people on the moon.
0.89
02:43:40.000
There would have to be a reason where you can make real money doing it.
02:43:47.000
And a lot of people think that's also why they canceled the shuttle program.
1.00
02:43:52.000
But again, you're talking to a fucking idiot.
1.00
02:44:01.000
Space Adventures is charging $150 million per seat, a price that includes months of ground-based testing, although this is on a fly-by mission.
0.99
02:44:18.000
So, 150 million per seat for space tourism, and then Virgin Space was like 250 to go into orbit, right?
02:44:25.000
Yeah, I think that's like up and down a couple of times.
02:44:27.000
Yeah, it just goes around the Earth a few times, like a half hour.
02:44:30.000
Yeah, you just go higher than the other planes.
02:44:38.000
We talk to those dudes, and they talk about, like, there's me before I went to space, and there's me.
02:44:45.000
I haven't got to watch that yet, but I heard it's insane.
02:44:48.000
It's just a heavy thing to be in space for hundreds of days.
02:44:53.000
There's Blue Origin, which is Amazon's project.
02:44:55.000
It's like a big balloon I kind of think you go up in, I think.
02:44:58.000
I don't like how he's ripping off my boyfriend, Elon Musk.
02:45:03.000
Would he just go straight up and then come down?
02:45:07.000
There's a video of him in Elon, and Elon, like years before, like accomplishing things, and then Jeff Bezos say they're going to be the first to accomplish things after Elon's already done it.
02:45:25.000
I'm glad that there's rich people that blow money doing crazy shit.
1.00
02:45:32.000
I mean, that's what cuts the path for the future.
02:45:38.000
An orbital, reusable launch vehicle that will build a road to space.
02:46:28.000
How many years would have to go by before you get a coronavirus vaccine and then take a tour of the moon?
02:46:38.000
How many people would have to do it successfully before you'd be like, I'm in?
02:46:50.000
You know what the biggest thing, especially with you and me, we have to travel.
1.00
02:46:54.000
We just gave up our DNA. What, with the nose swab?
02:47:00.000
You give up your DNA every time you leave a Starbucks cop in the fucking garbage.
1.00
02:47:06.000
Don't worry about your DNA. Who's out there scratching up your DNA? The problem is, like, who's collecting it?
02:47:32.000
And the lady's interviewing me that morning at the local news, Channel 8 in Dallas.
02:47:39.000
She goes, so, you know, you grew up here in Dallas-Fort Worth.
02:47:49.000
And the whole little room of newsroom people were like, oh shit, what do we do with that?
0.99
02:48:00.000
So, there was no extra kids, only my one kid Chandler.
02:48:05.000
What does this have to do with vaccines and putting people on the moon?
02:48:08.000
It has nothing to do with vaccines and putting people on the moon.
02:48:13.000
How many years would have to go by before people were doing commercial space flight before you decided to just take a take a shot?
02:48:23.000
If somebody like comes to you with a solid concept, we're gonna put you in space, bring you right back down to Earth?
02:48:29.000
I don't think space is as big a deal right now.
02:48:34.000
And the fact that all the richest people in the world are in it, prove it, you know.
02:48:40.000
That'd be like saying, oh my gosh, you can't ship this package.
02:48:49.000
The fact that the richest guys in the world are in it means it's very cheap and you can get the hell out of here.
02:48:57.000
I think it means there's a lot of benefit in being one of the people that innovates in space travel.
02:49:03.000
If you could come up with a thing where you send people into space and every time you do it you could charge someone a hundred grand and you get like a million people a year to give up a hundred grand and go flying into space.
0.98
02:49:23.000
I mean, I don't want to talk about your past or anything.
02:49:36.000
Well, that's when you start moving commas and not zeros.
02:49:42.000
So, like, if you're Jeff Bezos and you can make a hundred billion doing that...
02:49:51.000
What if you make $50 every year just putting people into space?
02:50:04.000
But if people are willing to spend a lot of money doing it, and then if you can figure out a way to escape Earth's gravity and land on Mars, or land on Europa, on one of the moons, I'll wait to see it.
02:50:22.000
What if you could figure out a way to fucking fly around Venus and come back home?
0.99
02:50:36.000
Who gives a fuck if you went to the highest spot?
0.99
02:50:41.000
The experience of going there and knowing that it's a difficult thing to do.
02:51:02.000
Tickets to Mars will eventually cost less than $500,000, Elon Musk says.
0.99
02:51:12.000
I could fly all the way around the fucking earth and stop 72 times for 500 grand.
0.98
02:51:17.000
But if they really do get to that point, and they probably will.
0.97
02:51:20.000
Look, if you go back to the invention of the first automobile in like the 1800s, and then you look at what they can do today with like a...
02:51:29.000
Jamie has a Tesla Model X. They go, shut the fuck up, bro.
1.00
02:51:49.000
So you go from that old car that was like, you know, fucking 20 horsepower to what he's got.
0.97
02:52:02.000
And if you look at what we can do right now, if commercial space flight is a real thing and they're flying people into orbit, There is no doubt in my mind that whatever the amount of time it is, whether it's 50 years or 100 years from now, they're going to absolutely have spaceflight to Mars and bring people home.
02:52:22.000
They'll probably come up with some new propulsion system, some fucking wild, crazy shit that we haven't even thought of before, and they'll change everything.
02:52:31.000
It's not going to happen with this giant go-straight-up.
0.96
02:52:35.000
It's going to have to be something that circumnavigates and gains speed.
02:52:40.000
Nah, I don't know about alien technology, but it's going to have to be something that circumnavigates and gains speed.
02:52:45.000
As long as you say circumnavigates, I think you know what you're talking about.
02:52:53.000
Imagine being at NASA. What you guys need to do is fucking circumnavigate.
0.99
02:53:09.000
But it goes straight in relationship to where you're standing, but not in relationship to the way the Earth's spinning and the way the fucking planets are aligned.
0.98
02:53:24.000
I thought you were supposed to be really good at this.
02:53:29.000
NASA is launching a 4G mobile network on the moon.
0.99
02:53:32.000
Yeah, well, when I have 6G, I'm not going to settle for 4G on the moon, you fucks.
1.00
02:53:43.000
How many customers are on the moon right now?
1.00
02:53:45.000
Jeff Bezos is gonna be with that girl that you don't even like on the moon.
02:53:49.000
I mean, if I was worth, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars, I think I could do better.
02:53:55.000
So we can either wrap this up or I could pee and we keep going.
02:54:05.000
Have you thought about what I said about space travel?
02:54:11.000
What I'm telling you is, as a race, we take over shit.
0.99
02:54:26.000
If we'd have been to the moon, we'd be up there.
02:54:29.000
The argument is that every single technological achievement from 1969 is easier, cheaper, and faster to reproduce today except going to the moon.
02:54:41.000
I say wrong because I was born in 69. That was fucking cheap.
0.99
02:54:47.000
The argument is that everything from then you could do cheaper today and easier.
02:55:02.000
The only other things they didn't work at is like...
02:55:05.000
How much innovation have there been in air flight?
02:55:19.000
They stopped sort of, I guess, with the Concorde.
02:55:26.000
Or they're not telling us how far they made it into space.
02:55:28.000
Well, the Concorde killed people that they can't kill.
02:55:32.000
What was that, getting you to France in like two hours or something?
02:55:38.000
Couldn't have gone faster, they just kept it there?
02:55:41.000
I think the thing that happened to them was on the runway.
02:55:44.000
I think it lost a wheel or something on the runway and killed a bunch of rich people.
02:55:50.000
It says low passenger numbers and rising maintenance costs.
02:55:58.000
I mean, it's going supersonic speeds, you know?
0.97
02:56:09.000
I thought, for some reason in my head, I thought it was like...
02:56:14.000
Since the fare was about $500 or just over $1,000.
02:56:23.000
Stopped in 2000. That's kind of crazy if you think about progression.
02:56:29.000
2000, you could fly at supersonic speeds commercially.
02:56:35.000
So that kind of throws a monkey wrench into the idea that things always get better.
02:56:40.000
When they cost too much money, they don't always get better.
02:56:44.000
They were complaining about the sound and the sonic boom.
02:56:51.000
Yeah, but I think there was also a danger of it.
02:56:55.000
The last flight, I think a bunch of people died that were very wealthy.
02:57:05.000
That's a little more than 13. That's fucking serious.
0.99
02:57:08.000
Yeah, and a lot of them were very wealthy.
0.97
02:57:11.000
I think when you get hit with those lawsuits, like...
02:57:16.000
So that's one of those things that from 2000 to 2020 did not get better.
02:57:22.000
It's a lot of money to get people on the fucking moon.
0.85
02:57:26.000
It's just one of those things where I think eventually they'll get to space tourism and it'll expand past the moon, it'll go to Mars, and it's going to happen.
0.96
02:57:42.000
Well, then you're pleading my case right there.
02:57:49.000
Might have did it once with a bunch of fucking cowboys.
1.00
02:57:51.000
Okay, you went to high school or even elementary school in the 70s, right?
0.99
02:57:59.000
Have you ever seen a picture of the flag on the moon?
02:58:07.000
Do you know they don't have telescopes that can actually see that clearly on the moon?
02:58:18.000
There's a long distance thing, and then there's a close distance thing.
02:58:23.000
You could use magnifying things like binoculars and telescopes that are low magnification, and you can get a good image of something that's not too far away.
02:58:33.000
But then when they started getting too far away...
02:58:36.000
Yes, the flag is still on the moon, but you can't see it using a telescope.
02:58:44.000
The Hubble Space Telescope is only 2.4 meters in diameter, much too small.
02:58:50.000
Resolving the larger lunar rover, which has a length of 3.1 meters, would still require a telescope 75 meters in diameter.
0.98
02:58:59.000
So we're the most badass country in the fucking world.
0.99
02:59:02.000
And we put a man on the moon and he planted a fucking flag.
0.99
02:59:10.000
I mean, because as a country, we're like Burt Reynolds.
02:59:20.000
I get your country wisdom where you're looking at it and you're like, if we had this, we would have that.
02:59:25.000
But if you look at that thing, it's saying that the Hubble only has a thing that's 2.4 meters and you need something much larger.
02:59:35.000
75 meters, which is almost a football field size to be able to see what's on the moon.
02:59:44.000
They didn't have the ability to take these high definition images of things that were way far away.
02:59:49.000
But to have something that gets really close to things, you need something that's even more potent.
02:59:58.000
We're arguing about shit that we don't study.
0.99
03:00:01.000
I don't even care about it, to tell you the truth.
03:00:11.000
The gas monkey barn grill guy that you're in a fucking argument with, he's going to bring that to court.
1.00
03:00:33.000
If you were an alien, wouldn't you be fascinated by hot rod culture?
03:00:39.000
I met an old guy a long time ago, and he put it to me the right way.
03:00:54.000
What if all this that you built is basically an amp form that you have in your head and you're just an amp form in somebody else's head and somebody else's head?
03:01:04.000
I don't know if that defines us, but it is kind of interesting.
03:01:12.000
I mean, you can't think that you're the only thing out there or we're the only thing out here.
03:01:17.000
If we are an ant farm and we don't know that we're an ant farm and we're living and we understand how the ant farm works...
03:01:27.000
The real problem is if the owner of the ant farm shows up.
03:01:34.000
If this really is some complex ant farm for people, we're having fun.
03:01:50.000
The real problem is if the ant farm owner shows up.
1.00
03:01:55.000
That's the problem with these fucking UFOs that keep showing up.
0.99
03:01:57.000
The ones the New York Times puts on the front page of their newspaper.
1.00
03:02:10.000
I just don't know about New York Times being a paper.
03:02:13.000
Well, they're more often a paper than they are not.
03:02:17.000
Sometimes they fuck things up, but they're more often accurate than not.
03:02:23.000
They were more accurate in the past than they are now.
03:02:29.000
They tend to be a bit woke, but they're still probably the best newspaper on earth.
03:03:00.000
Is this anything you think about on a regular basis?
03:03:12.000
Because that alien pussy, you know what I'm saying?
1.00
03:03:24.000
I mean, if aliens are smart enough to figure out what we find attractive, they would just tune into that in the most perfect way.
03:03:32.000
Like, find out some things that we're attracted to that we didn't even know.
03:03:49.000
There's some fish lures that don't look anything like a fucking fish.
0.99
03:03:54.000
They don't look like anything a fish would eat.
0.99
03:04:01.000
Yeah, it's got the big crazy tail, and then the other thing next to it is spinning around.
03:04:10.000
Yeah, and it drives a largemouth bass fucking crazy.
0.99
03:04:15.000
They see that thing and they're like, God damn it, I can't take it anymore.
0.98
03:04:20.000
I set the lake record at Lake Granbury in 1978 or 1979 for a largemouth bass with a spinning oar.
0.78
03:04:39.000
I have the clipping, so I will go back and post this at a later date.
0.99
03:04:46.000
Yeah, I have the clipping where I'm holding it like this.
0.99
03:04:51.000
That's just showing people using them, not like in action.
03:05:04.000
This thing is nothing like anything that a fish...
03:05:07.000
So, like, it's almost like a little fish chasing an octopus.
03:05:19.000
What if aliens figure out some sort of a version of that for people?
0.97
03:05:32.000
Like, what if what we find attractive, they go, oh, I don't know.
03:05:36.000
You don't even know what you think is actually attractive.
0.99
03:05:38.000
You want a chick with, not regular tits, but teeth.
1.00
03:05:56.000
A man likes a woman with warm, accepting, seductive eyeballs.
0.74
03:06:11.000
But if they were running this ant farm and they figured that out, that would be our issue.
03:06:47.000
So do you have a, for the people that are following you, like your fans at home, do you have a map of when they can expect all this new content, these new ideas?
03:06:57.000
No, actually, I haven't even told anybody until today.
03:07:24.000
It forces people to figure out what's the best version of what they want to do.
03:07:28.000
Well, you know, none of my competition, if there was any competition, is passing me up.
03:07:42.000
As far as TV with you, in podcasts, you're the very top of the line.
03:07:49.000
And in my world, I'm kind of the top of the line.
0.99
03:07:52.000
I know that sounds like an asshole statement.
0.99
03:07:56.000
Isn't it funny that you got there from personality?
03:08:01.000
It's love of the thing, but it's also personality.
03:08:12.000
So, I'm lucky enough to be where I'm at, lucky enough to be going through the experience that I'm in, and kind of enjoy it, you know?
03:08:24.000
Spilt a lot of shit on your table, but I don't care.
1.00
03:08:27.000
But isn't it good to have things happen where you don't really know what the future holds?
03:08:37.000
It's the coolest thing in the world when you're so focused and you're in this thing, like I was with Fast and Loud forever, and then it's gone.
03:09:05.000
Like, what kind of raps did they have on your social media, and when did that...
03:09:33.000
I mean, I couldn't have written a note on a post-it note, a picture of myself, and put it on a telephone pole.
03:09:44.000
That seems so stupid and hurts my feelings.
1.00
03:09:51.000
So you stayed in touch with fans through Gas Monkey?
03:09:57.000
When do you plan to have something new rolling out?
03:10:03.000
That's a good time, too, because vaccines will have kicked in for most of the country.
03:10:32.000
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Well, that doesn't include the four I had before breakfast.
03:10:55.000
It has to do with certain juices on your face all the time.
03:11:02.000
Fill in the blank with your own imagination, ladies and gentlemen.
03:11:16.000
If you were in the back seat of a freaking 69 Chevelle, you'd be like, I will tell you what that is.
03:11:22.000
What do you have that would win a drag race with him?
03:11:43.000
But you can put a dragster on the street, full length, as long as it has taillights and turn signals.
03:11:52.000
Would those fucking things pass emissions?
0.99
03:12:02.000
You can't just let people blow coal out of the back of their car.
03:12:19.000
Because, let me tell you, it's going to suck for our offspring and their offspring, because it's only going to get worse.
03:12:46.000
I like how internal combustion engines becomes an ideology.
03:13:01.000
I think we have to figure out a way to get the fucking bad shit out of the air.
1.00
03:13:06.000
I'm hoping some super smart egghead type dude is going to figure out how to suck all that bad stuff out of the air.
03:13:16.000
And if you think about where we're at in society right now, it will happen.
03:13:23.000
Some guy will say, hey, this is how we confine it.
03:13:47.000
Was that in China they were talking about doing that?
03:13:51.000
I don't think it'll ever get all the bullshit out of the air.
0.99
03:13:58.000
That kind of bullshit will never get out of the air.
1.00
03:14:02.000
But I think there's a real possibility that they might be able to pull pollution out of the air.
03:14:12.000
The carbon in the air, like the excess carbon that we're spitting out...
03:14:21.000
Scientists at the University of Earth Environment.
0.99
03:14:25.000
First of all, the scientists at China's Institute of Earth Environment, those people are probably secretly polluting.
03:14:37.000
Scientists at China's Institute of Earth Environment have constructed what they say is the world's largest air purifier in the northern city of...
03:14:54.000
The experimental smog-sucking tower stands over 100 meters tall, 300 fucking feet, and is designed to improve air quality in the city where standards regularly fall short of expectations set by the World Health Organization.
0.99
03:15:09.000
Yeah, but that shit has to be reduced down to something.
0.99
03:15:21.000
If they can really pull bullshit out of the air, that bullshit might be valuable.
0.99
03:15:27.000
They just have to figure out a way to make it worthwhile.
1.00
03:15:30.000
And if they can do that, then they can have one of those stupid things like every block...
0.94
03:15:34.000
If that's how we saw blocks, we saw blocks with an air cleaner and everything was perfect, all our issues with how many autoimmune issues have to do with pollution.
0.96
03:15:44.000
They say that living in a big city with a lot of pollution can drop your life expectancy by 10 years.
0.99
03:15:52.000
You don't know about this shit, Richard Rollins.
1.00
03:15:57.000
I mean, you guys that work out and do all this gymnastic shit and fucking go fucking fight, you're worried about it?
1.00
03:16:15.000
The thing about drinking beer and having a good time is you don't have to do it all day.
03:16:20.000
You can take parts of your day and do other stuff.
03:16:49.000
Because if we were doing this anywhere where there's like a real producer or an executive or someone who had any self-respect, they would stop this.
03:17:01.000
And they would be like, what are you fucking idiots talking about?
1.00
03:17:18.000
It's going to live forever with fucking half its body gone.
1.00
03:17:31.000
That's pretty much how everything ends at 420. Hey, it's 420. What were we just talking about?
03:17:43.000
Being able to do something with the materials they pull out of the atmosphere.
03:17:47.000
As soon as they can make it valuable, then they'll clean the air up.
03:17:55.000
Smart enough people recognize all that shit that's ruining everything.
0.99
03:17:59.000
You can figure out a way to economically process it where it makes sense you can make money.
0.99
03:18:05.000
Do you know what the worst juxtaposition in the entire United States is right now?
03:18:24.000
You can literally walk around with some cocaine in your pocket.
03:18:33.000
I wonder how many people in Oregon grew the long pinky nail just to deal with the bullshit.
1.00
03:18:45.000
Are you so selfish about your coke use, you want to kill a seal?
1.00
03:18:48.000
If you're a fucking baller, you do it with a hondo.
1.00
03:18:52.000
Didn't they say that some crazy percentage of $100 billows have coke on them?
03:19:14.000
100% of bills from a few large urban areas tested positive.
03:19:26.000
You put them in a shaker and it comes all down.
03:19:30.000
Not just because it's like a piece of paper and you get things for the piece of paper, but also because it passes around.
03:19:37.000
Like if you're holding on to a $20 bill, how many people had that bill before you?
03:19:48.000
I'm a big cash guy because I carry cash to all my buys.
03:20:05.000
It's like when Vin Rames opened up that suitcase in Pulp Fiction.
03:20:16.000
Vin Rames, when he opened up the suitcase in Pulp Fiction, that's what cash is like.
03:20:20.000
I got popped in Virginia flying, and I was carrying about 500 grand to go buy some Hemi Kootenus.
03:20:32.000
Yeah, this guy had some himicudas and they were very special.
03:20:37.000
That is John Travolta opening up the suitcase going, oh shit.
1.00
03:21:34.000
They took me in the room and I said, look, it's not illegal to carry money in America.
0.99
03:21:41.000
And I showed them pictures of the car and titles of the cars.
03:21:50.000
I had to take a flight two hours later, but they fucked with me for a while.
1.00
03:21:56.000
So they just want to make sure you're not buying drugs.
03:22:01.000
I was buying Hemikudas, which is a drug in our world.
03:22:10.000
But it's a weird thing where you can only have like so much.
03:22:14.000
Like you could show up with like, what is it, like 10 grand?
1.00
03:22:17.000
Like if you deposit more than 10 grand in the bank, they're like, what are you doing?
1.00
03:22:23.000
And then traveling out of the country, 10 grand.
03:22:31.000
What if you're one of those dudes with, like, diamond teeth?
0.99
03:22:34.000
Who just, like, everywhere you go, you got a fucking Gucci bag filled with cash.
0.99
03:22:39.000
I guess you fly in private, but I was flying home from London one time, and the night before, I won a bunch of money at the casino there in Leicester Square.
03:22:50.000
I forget what that casino's called, but it's been on a bazillion movies.
03:22:56.000
And then I got there, and I cashed it in, and I had, I don't know, $20,000 or $30,000.
03:23:05.000
They were like, do you have more than $10,000 to declare?
03:23:36.000
There was a real issue with cops pulling people over who were on their way to buy something with cash.
03:23:47.000
Where they had seized millions and millions of dollars of people's cash and items.
03:23:55.000
It was almost impossible for the people to get it back.
03:24:00.000
I believe they just changed the law really recently.
03:24:16.000
Oklahoma, this is 2017, it says, Oklahoma district attorneys were awarded more than $6.2 million in cash, up from the $3.1 million the year before, believed to be involved in the drug trade that was seized by law enforcement.
03:24:28.000
So they gave it to the DAs, I believe is what this is saying.
03:24:32.000
So they gave the cash to the DA. The seized drug money.
03:24:36.000
So then they don't have to account for how they made the seized drug money.
03:24:40.000
They just take that money from drug dealing and they apply it to the police force.
03:24:45.000
Which makes the police force more incentivized to go after drug dealers.
03:24:52.000
That was one of the things about whatever the law was, whether it was North Carolina or South Carolina, where these cops would pull people over and take their stuff.
03:25:06.000
But whatever it was, they would keep most of the money.
03:25:11.000
So they were incentivized to see a guy like you on your way to buy some Hemis.
03:25:21.000
You have to prove that you got that cash in a legitimate manner before they give it back to you.
03:25:30.000
It's a seizure law, but I mean, they have them everywhere.
03:25:37.000
Do you hear about the guy who had- I barely have like five grand on me right now.
0.99
03:25:46.000
You can't have a pound of gold in your ass.
1.00
03:25:48.000
I think he had two pounds of gold in his ass.
1.00
03:25:52.000
Bro, just because your ass is weak doesn't mean...
1.00
03:26:01.000
Airport staff notices a man walking strangely, then finds over two pounds of gold in his rectum.
03:26:07.000
The man was reportedly trying to avoid paying an 18% tax on gold.
0.99
03:26:15.000
Look at those things and imagine them in your asshole.
1.00
03:26:30.000
When I used to wrestle and we used to cut weight, people would try to take a shit.
0.99
03:26:35.000
But what you don't realize is shit doesn't weigh that much.
1.00
03:26:45.000
Your shit is lighter than you'd hope it is.
1.00
03:26:53.000
We've already done terrible math all show long.
03:26:56.000
Somebody else in the same flight had twice as much as that guy on the top.
03:27:01.000
I'm actually starting to get loaded enough that I'm looking for the guy that's talking to me.
1.00
03:27:11.000
I can't even finger my own ass and get four pounds for this shit.
1.00
03:27:25.000
So, you gotta think the dude who got busted with four pounds?
03:27:36.000
Everything that you think of, Richard, just add like a 10 or a 100 to it.
03:27:51.000
There's nothing wrong with a gold asshole.
0.99
03:27:53.000
I don't think that's what we're talking about.
1.00
03:27:59.000
You ever see someone get busted with coke and go in the wrong life with the wrong situation?
03:28:10.000
So it happened recently and a couple years ago?
03:28:14.000
Walking with difficulty, appearing to be in pain.
03:28:18.000
Oh yeah, that's where they look for gold in your asshole.
1.00
03:28:26.000
$1,500 fine and you get to keep his shitty gold?
0.99
03:28:33.000
Imagine they take all your gold and they charge you $1,500, or you go to jail forever.
1.00
03:29:10.000
It was like, the plastic will be extra space.
1.00
03:29:13.000
Shut up and wrap my gold with plastic, you piece of shit.
1.00
03:29:17.000
You know, I don't want your asshole to ever come in direct contact with my gold.
1.00
03:29:23.000
How many guys do you think every year go through airport security with gold up their ass?
1.00
03:29:35.000
Because we've got to have the COVID exemption.
1.00
03:29:38.000
But under a healthy year, I bet a hundred people go through the border with gold up their asshole.
1.00
03:29:42.000
I got one with 140k of gold up his ass in 2016. How much does that weigh?
1.00
03:30:09.000
That would be a bowling ball-sized log of gold in your asshole.
1.00
03:30:16.000
Royal Canadian Mint employee allegedly smuggled over $100,000 worth of gold.
1.00
03:30:22.000
They found a tub of Vaseline in his locker at work.
1.00
03:30:38.000
So this guy was around gold all the time, and he probably started stretching his asshole.
1.00
03:30:45.000
You seem so close right now when you're talking about that.
03:30:55.000
I can never tell the difference between euros and pounds.
03:30:59.000
This article is from the UK, so they had to translate it for...
03:31:18.000
I feel like it's got to be at a time in the market when gold was at an all-time high or something.
03:31:26.000
They don't want to tell you the weight because it's not that impressive.
03:31:31.000
I think this guy, he didn't get caught at one time.
03:31:47.000
He's just the guy that made his living shoving things up his ass and making his way across the border.
1.00
03:32:15.000
I think we're around, somewhere around four hours.
03:32:48.000
It's like, you gotta take the weight off of that word.
03:32:51.000
If someone calls you a sissy, does that sting at all?
0.60
03:33:05.000
Nerf at least has some weight to it, so it'll fly.
03:33:14.000
Richard Rawlings, let us know whenever your new adventure, wherever it lies, whenever it comes out, let us know.
1.00
03:33:55.000
If you're alone and you're not trying to impress anybody and it comes on the radio and you're in the right mood, it's a great song to hear.
03:34:25.000
Richard Rawlings, do you have your fucking social media back?
0.99
03:34:42.000
Joe Rogan is not Richard Rawlings at gasmonkeygarage.com.
03:34:55.000
Appreciate you, and I look forward to whatever you do.
