Summary
Joe Rogan is in a different world than the rest of us, and it's a good one. He's in a world where he doesn't care what you do with your dick, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to keep it there. And he's not alone in that either, because he's with a girl who doesn't give a shit about anything but sex, and she wants to fuck you in the dark. And that's cool, because she's not afraid to do so. And she doesn't even care that you don't want to have sex with her when you're sleeping. She just wants to do it when she's sleeping. And if you're not okay with that, then you need to listen to this episode of the Rogan Podcast, because it's going to make you think about how gross it must be to fuck a girl like that, and how disgusting it is to have your dick sucked by someone who's not into it, and why you shouldn't even be thinking about it at all. We're also brought to you by Alpha Brain, the makers of Alpha Brain. Alpha Brain is a cognitive enhancing supplement that Doug Stanhope is taking, and they're going to cure you of the evil that is the "mushrooms" you're taking in this episode. And they're also going to put you on a different kind of dilemma, because you're gonna be trippin' it up with the Aku Aku. and you're going back to the coop, and you'll be back in the loop, babyyyyyyyy! .

With that fucking title neck, and it just blows up like a python with a fucking sandwich in its throat, and that's it.
00:00:21.000
Like, fucking you, and she reaches down and touches your gut, and you know it's just like squishy, fucking wet flesh, and there's no tone to it.
00:00:32.000
All I can think of is you have to be disgusted by this.
00:00:36.000
And if you're not, there's something wrong with you.
00:00:46.000
I can't get past how disgusting it must be to fuck me to fuck a girl.
00:00:54.000
But sex is not like a driving force to make me do fucking squats and fucking leg lifts.
00:01:03.000
No, the point is, like, how do you not think about how fucking gross it must be to fuck you?
00:01:09.000
When this dick is coming at you, I do a good job.
00:01:14.000
If you were into porn, you would turn the porn off.
00:01:26.000
I ain't coming up with muscles or sunlight behind me.
00:01:36.000
You need a trust to keep your fucking belly on.
00:01:39.000
You can fuck in the dark, but they feel a fucking...
00:01:54.000
The cognitive enhancing supplement that I'm giving to Doug Stanhope.
00:01:57.000
Doug Stanhope, this in your system right now will cure you of the evil that is the mushrooms.
00:02:02.000
Because right now your mind is taken over by an organism, by an intelligent life form.
00:02:08.000
I completely dismissed the guy at the merch booth.
00:02:12.000
I thought he was giving me a poster of something.
00:02:17.000
And I go, I chuck it in my merch bag, which is scary when I travel.
00:02:24.000
So this guy hands you a bag of whatever it might be.
00:02:32.000
But it had mushrooms in it, so I can't travel with them, so I'm going to fucking...
00:02:58.000
Alpha Brain is going to take those mushrooms and put you on a different fucking dilemma.
00:03:02.000
You're going to go back to Worcester to the Aku Aku.
00:03:05.000
That's how deep this fucking mushroom is going to take you.
00:03:18.000
My friends tell me, you should shop at the co-op instead of Safeway.
00:03:25.000
I'm saying, no, I live in a fucking small town of 6,000 people.
00:03:33.000
Once you're on the internet, it's a global world, isn't it?
00:03:39.000
Well, that's why you really need the internet, because you're in a town of 6,000 people.
00:03:45.000
But, I mean, just for sanity's sake, keep in the fucking loop.
00:04:02.000
I took three capsules of 0.3 to 0.4 milligrams of mushrooms on the trip here, which was at 130...
00:04:13.000
You know, when you eat a mushroom, how much of it is like cellulose?
00:04:31.000
If you really look at it, it's like a gram in his capsule.
00:04:32.000
Whatever, the guy gave me instructions on the fucking...
00:04:35.000
Well, we hope that the alpha brain doesn't set off the fucking...
00:04:50.000
Yeah, some guy that fucking tried to barge into the green room.
00:04:59.000

00:05:06.000
That was one of the best commercials we ever did.
00:05:09.000
I know you don't like the commercials, ladies and gentlemen.
00:05:19.000
This is a good argument for the necessary having a producer.
00:05:27.000
How would you know the difference between that and the...
00:05:31.000
Oh, because you just hit a button and now we're actually talking?
00:05:38.000
But in the beginning, before we start, the way we got it out of the way, we used to just talk about the fleshlight all the time, and then we figured out somewhere along the line.
00:05:46.000
It's best to just get it out of the way and then go about the podcast.
00:05:58.000
Doug Stanhope, on his way over here, my good buddy Doug Stanhope, who I've not seen in probably like a year.
00:06:06.000
Maybe a year and a half since the last time I did the show.
00:06:11.000
And when we went to see your live show, dude, I learned something.
00:06:13.000
I learned I don't like going to shows where I have to stand up.
00:06:24.000
Now that I can cut my own deal, I'm fucking back at the improv.
00:06:46.000
You got all these fucking mooks during the week.
00:06:49.000
But I can do one night there on an off night and bring my own fucking crowd.
00:06:54.000
You were one of the first guys to figure out how to get your own crowd online.
00:06:58.000
What you did was really a smart move by just leaving the comedy clubs almost completely and just going to little rock and roll clubs and booking it yourself.
00:07:17.000
Letting these motherfuckers know you're a voice and you've got to get the fuck out there.
00:07:28.000
You're one of those dudes where you go to see a Stanhope show.
00:07:31.000
You know it's a fucking Stanhope crowd when you see them walking down the street.
00:07:39.000
I was in Calgary where I actually crossed the street.
00:07:50.000
Calgary, there's a train station in front of where the gig was.
00:08:00.000
And then only to realize that they were waiting not for the train, but that was my gig.
00:08:06.000
That was the fucking cue for my fucking show that I'm crossing the street to get away from my own fans because it seems scary.
00:08:21.000
There's a dude that's on Fear Factor, this new season of Fear Factor, and there was a thing on CNN about a guy living in a tree.
00:08:30.000
Last time I saw you, you were saying, oh, yeah, if they did Fear Factor, I'd suck the devil's dick again.
00:08:34.000
And now I'm fucking watching football, and here's Joe Rogan's big fucking huge head in my face on 55 inches of Fear Factor.
00:08:46.000
They came with that vacation home cash in the middle of the fucking world falling apart.
00:08:50.000
We're way too old for fucking talking about selling out or all that shit that young comics care about.
00:09:00.000
Dane Cook, like, I'm doing this fucking benefit show in Tucson that I was...
00:09:05.000
It's a long story, but like Dane Cook said, hey, I haven't done stand-up, but I'll help you out.
00:09:41.000
Well, he didn't put the, like, I don't know how Twitter really works, but he didn't put the apostrophe thing in front of it, so he's just telling your own fans that he's promoting it.
00:09:54.000
Yeah, yeah, he didn't put the A. People are just still so fucking cunty.
00:09:59.000
Well, people are looking for a reason to be cunty because they're trying to distract themselves from the shit life that they live.
00:10:05.000
Instead of looking at their life and trying to fucking figure out their real problems, they just go online and just fucking pop.
00:10:11.000
But you don't give a fuck about comedy anymore, do you?
00:10:20.000
I realize somewhere along the line it's mostly just jealousy and insecurity.
00:10:24.000
One of the things I realized is people had a shit way of looking at comedy when I used to tell people that I'd take Joey on the road with me.
00:10:32.000
I'd take people like, who'd you do Rascals with?
00:10:35.000
Oh, Joey Diaz and I. He goes, you bring fucking Joey Diaz on the road?
00:10:45.000
I was like, why would you even think like that?
00:10:49.000
Everybody's worried at every moment that they're not the life of the fucking party.
00:10:54.000
They can't even enjoy when other people are funny.
00:10:56.000
I'm like, you don't want to be around funny people?
00:11:05.000
I don't want to just be the only one who's having fun up there.
00:11:11.000
Because, yeah, my fucking best friends in the world are literally the funniest people alive.
00:11:24.000
When they tell you you can do this joke on stage.
00:11:31.000
She's a nice girl, but I was at a transitionary point in my life.
00:11:36.000
She was a young girl, wanted to do what she wanted to do.
00:11:42.000
But she was always upset that I was doing other things and I was hanging out at this pool hall all the time.
00:11:48.000
But, you know, I finally, I had to sit her down and have a moment.
00:11:54.000
Again, I have to remind people I'm tripping a bit.
00:11:57.000
Just picturing you at a pool hall is a flashback in a movie and they put weird hair on you.
00:12:09.000
Go back to Joe Rogan at pool hall days back in Boston.
00:12:15.000
I became obsessed when I first moved to New York.
00:12:18.000
She fucking hated it because I never wanted to hang out with her.
00:12:20.000
And I would tell her, look, you know, and I had a conversation with her.
00:12:25.000
I don't want to date another girl, but I don't want to fucking hang out with you every day.
00:12:38.000
But when you're in that situation, man, when you're just like, God, I just can't.
00:12:44.000
It hurts me to know that there's all this fun going on over there.
00:12:46.000
I'm hanging out with you, and these dudes are gambling and staying up until 3 in the morning, and no one's married, and no one knows what the fuck is going on the next day.
00:12:54.000
They're all wild gambling motherfuckers, and they're my friends, and they're funny, and they say funny shit.
00:13:21.000
It's so important to have friends that are fun.
00:13:24.000
It's the one thing that you get out of podcasts and shit, too, though.
00:13:29.000
These people that don't know anybody like you, don't know anybody like Joey, They get to talk to you, essentially, on a podcast.
00:13:35.000
They get to kind of feel your vibe, see how you think about things.
00:13:38.000
You sit down and see somebody talk for an hour.
00:13:44.000
And it kind of can give you insight on how maybe you're not doing it that way or maybe you could do it that way and it would enhance your shit.
00:13:54.000
You can get stuck in a fucking bad place with bad friends.
00:14:05.000
We got this new studio for the folks who are just listening on iTunes.
00:14:09.000
If you go to ustream.tv forward slash Joe Rogan, you can watch all these now.
00:14:15.000
And we actually have it set up where we have projectors.
00:14:25.000
One of my favorite Stan Hope stories that I tell is when you and I did mushrooms and then we went out to the desert and it was the day the war started.
00:14:37.000
You and I were sitting in Jan Irvin's living room, twisted to our balls, right?
00:14:42.000
They had a fucking giant kettle of some kind of ayahuasca they were trying to produce.
00:14:55.000
I had a little bag of mushrooms in my pocket and then I'd come in and they'd have this whole fucking giant kettle going on.
00:15:03.000
The two of them together, though, I think that's what really blasted it off.
00:15:07.000
And, you know, that's what they think Soma was.
00:15:08.000
They think Soma might have been, you know, Soma from, like, the ancient Hindu religion?
00:15:12.000
They don't know what it is, but it was, like, the basis of a lot of their belief and a lot of their, you know, their ancient scriptures talk about it and, like, rave about Soma.
00:15:22.000
And they think that it was Amanita muscaria mushrooms mixed with cubensis mushrooms, like, mixed like that.
00:15:33.000
I remember staring at the wall and looking at this crazy geometric pattern that the universe was made out of.
00:15:41.000
But you go, you were standing there and you go, holy shit.
00:15:45.000
All I was missing was fucking, what's his name, Frank Caliendo.
00:15:54.000
I'm going to give you my picks as John Madden, who hasn't been relevant for fucking seven years.
00:15:59.000
We're sitting there blasted, and I'll never forget this, because you just go, holy shit, there's a fucking kickoff.
00:16:09.000
And we were both, like, really just starting a trip.
00:16:13.000
Like, it was just coming on, and then you go, holy shit, there's a kickoff.
00:16:19.000
It's 5.45, we should get a cocktail and some snacks.
00:16:24.000
Terry Bradshaw is going to fucking come on and tell you how he feels.
00:16:28.000
It's like it's the strangest time ever to be alive.
00:16:33.000
They're telling us the war coverage begins at 5. I don't know.
00:16:52.000
Could you imagine if they actually timed the missiles to prime time in America?
00:17:10.000
Yeah, Sizzler, we can get fucking tied to sponsor it if you're going to nuke them at 6. It was such a strange fucking moment, man.
00:17:23.000
Stan, remember those two broads that live next to you?
00:17:26.000
Remember the tall German chick that was lanky and cute and the short brunette?
00:17:47.000
Sage's father at one time was the Rolling Stones manager.
00:17:51.000
And what he did for this chick was he bought her a fucking Blockbuster in Ventura.
00:17:57.000
I think you turned her on to heroin and she was giving me shit about herpes.
00:18:06.000
She was giving me shit about having herpes, but she's over there fucking like...
00:18:18.000
She would come to the store on Sundays and give me pills.
00:18:26.000
And she was an expert in mixing, what was that shit that was big, 10 years?
00:18:36.000
Oh, GHB. GHB. And she'd bring it to the comedy store, and I'd be hosting on Sundays, and she'd give me drinks with a GSP, whatever the fuck.
00:18:46.000
Listen, so this happened, this went on for six months.
00:18:53.000
Rogan, I'd go to her house on Sundays after I'd host.
00:19:05.000
She was 100 pounds overweight, but this bitch was bad.
00:19:07.000
Yeah, I was going to say, it's not an ass you want to eat.
00:19:15.000
And then, she started coming around the comedy store and giving me that GSP and shit.
00:19:22.000
I was thinking of Stan Hope on the way up here.
00:19:27.000
But at one time he worked at CAA. And he goes, listen, one of the interns over there, he blew up.
00:19:38.000
So every day they would come over and I would sell Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston You know, they would come over with like $1,100, which was per diem money.
00:19:49.000
Every day they'd come over with a little white envelope and give me the per diem money, and I'd go up to the Martell cartel, and I'd buy 14 grams of blow, take an eight ball out, and cut it, and then give it to Whitney Houston.
00:20:04.000
But I couldn't snort all the blow I was stealing from.
00:20:09.000
So I was giving it to Marilyn Martinez to hold for me.
00:20:20.000
I got like two ounces of blow, plus I snorted all this coke, and I can't snort no more.
00:20:28.000
I go, Marilyn, bring the Coke down to the fucking store, right?
00:20:34.000
They're picking me up at 9 in the morning, paging me on the red pager.
00:20:38.000
I'm coming downstairs, getting in the car with them, going to the Martell cartel, to the brothers, going in the house with two grams of Coke already cut in my pocket.
00:20:47.000
And I would just go and take rocks out, throw the cut in, mix it up, and give it right back to them in the car, and they'd be happy as shit.
00:20:52.000
They were inviting me to A&M Records to come party with them.
00:20:57.000
I was getting them a half ounce and taking an eight ball out and throwing an eight ball to cut in.
00:21:05.000
I've done coke my entire fucking life and I don't know...
00:21:20.000
I know coke because someone goes, hey, do you want to do a bump?
00:21:29.000
When you go out with Stanhope, somebody got coke, he'll do coke.
00:21:41.000
You know, when I got here, and he said he had mushrooms, I'm like, what the fuck?
00:21:44.000
This is the cocksucker that knocks on your door with rolling papers and no weed.
00:21:51.000
Next time you bring those fucking mushrooms with you, and we could have been right here, this would have been a great fucking podcast.
00:21:59.000
For a fucking month, I'm robbing their blow every day.
00:22:06.000
This is 90. No, this is 98. They're doing a half ounce a day, which is three ounces a week.
00:22:29.000
So, right, I tell Marilyn, bring the coat to the store.
00:22:35.000
Aren't they feeding an entourage at this point?
00:22:40.000
Yeah, you start, oh, there's only so much Coke left.
00:22:43.000
All right, you gotta go, you gotta go, you gotta go.
00:22:47.000
So on Saturday night, I called Marilyn Martinez.
00:22:50.000
Bring the blow to the comedy store because I'm just going to sell it.
00:22:53.000
And a kid, after my set, gives me a little baggie with the bottom of it filled up.
00:23:22.000
And I wouldn't bring it upstairs because I don't like coke in my house.
00:23:25.000
So I would go down and do a little bump about five in the morning.
00:23:39.000
I used to leave it outside on the rocks in somebody else's garage.
00:23:42.000
And then I would go over there and do a bump and go back upstairs.
00:23:45.000
So there's one night I go upstairs and the page is going off and it's sage.
00:23:49.000
And I said, fuck it, let me just bring the two ounces to her house of blood.
00:23:53.000
And I brought, at that time it was like an ounce and a half and three quarters.
00:23:56.000
This bitch picked me up at six in the morning with a case of Starbucks coffee in Canada, half a gallon of vodka.
00:24:03.000
And we went back to the house, and we did that whole package of blow, heroin, Valiums, MDMA, GSP. How many days?
00:24:17.000
Every afternoon I had to get Scott Wolf, Josh Wolf's brother, Fredo, to come get me over by the Directors Guild for two days.
00:24:41.000
I get a call on a Monday morning after the Grammys at 9:00 in the morning.
00:24:48.000
And they pull up to my fucking house where I live by the YMCA. And it was the manager, Whitney Houston, and Ricky Martin.
00:25:00.000
That jaw, all them jaws are fucking going, Jack.
00:25:06.000
I'm sitting there like I don't even know it's Ricky Martin.
00:25:12.000
I got in, bought it, brought it back to the car.
00:25:21.000
Had to be 98, 97, 99. They were doing the soundtrack to James Bond.
00:25:27.000
A Wycliffe Jean who just robbed half of fucking Haiti.
00:25:33.000
He robbed his own fucking earthquake relief fund.
00:25:40.000
Unless I see the guy on the street bleeding, I give him money.
00:26:01.000
I was just thinking about the 90s and where we lived on Curzon, and there was a fucking change jar.
00:26:20.000
Yeah, it was just a weird thought that just came into my head.
00:26:22.000
I think if you pour this for laundry, I'm fucking cold.
00:26:37.000
I was opening up for Stanhope, and I picked them up in an RV. And it was snowing in Seattle.
00:26:45.000
And the puppy, Carol, who I stuck the fucking aluminum for up her ass.
00:26:51.000
Hey, Brian, you shouldn't probably play copyrighted shit on the background like this.
00:26:58.000
You should probably not fucking start defamation suits.
00:27:06.000
If it didn't fucking happen, then it wouldn't give a fuck.
00:27:12.000
These opinions and stories are not a representative of the Joe Rogan experience.
00:27:17.000
I was actually promoting copyrighted stuff and...
00:27:22.000
Law& Order, this story might think that you might know these individuals.
00:27:27.000
You know this story's gonna get on the internet now.
00:27:38.000
I kept her alive for three fucking months, giving her all those rocks.
00:27:43.000
So you think it was just them doing that amount?
00:28:02.000
Did they break into your house and change a change?
00:28:05.000
No, I just noticed all the change had been taken out and nothing else was stolen.
00:28:18.000
No, I think the last time I went to Stan Hope's house.
00:28:27.000
This is the fucking, like, 1996. We were all broke.
00:28:30.000
I'm going, which one of my friends would be broke enough to just fucking...
00:28:40.000
And I couldn't walk to Vista, so I went to Stanhope's because he had the open-door policy.
00:28:49.000
No, this time in the living room he just had a cot.
00:28:52.000
I get on the cot because I couldn't even make it to the fucking bed.
00:28:57.000
And I wake up to the house and I open my eyes sideways and I see the clock.
00:29:15.000
I still beat the horn when I go by like a motherfucker out of respect.
00:29:26.000
Right now, the fucking drive here was horrific.
00:29:33.000
If we have to do this the next day, I'm going to change my flight.
00:29:46.000
If I'm going to extend my stay here to fucking hang out with you, I'll probably be fucked up when I leave.
00:29:52.000
And then just the thought of LAX fucking ruined that entire fantasy.
00:30:09.000
You know, why'd you move there in the first place?
00:30:12.000
You live in Bisbee, Arizona, in the middle of nowhere, right?
00:30:18.000
It's a place I found when I was driving on the road.
00:30:46.000
What's the downside of living in a tiny little town like that?
00:30:49.000
Because you're in a town of, what, 6,000 people or something crazy?
00:30:52.000
Yeah, Jake LaMotta has come over to the house a couple times.
00:30:58.000
The guy who they made the movie Raging Bull about?
00:31:10.000
Yeah, but you have to be respectful of people there.
00:31:15.000
Any good story that comes out of there, that's your neighbor.
00:31:22.000
Yeah, you can't talk about the fun shit that happens.
00:31:23.000
You can't flip someone off at a fucking stop sign because they cut you off because that guy will be behind you in line at fucking Safeway.
00:31:31.000
Yeah, like how often you run in the same people over and over again?
00:31:36.000
So yeah, you get a fucking really funny fucking bit about your neighbor.
00:31:41.000
So do you guys think that Joey Diaz took care of this change?
00:31:59.000
No, it's because my senses are peaked right now.
00:32:07.000
One of the bad sides is I hate the road now because I want to be home.
00:32:15.000
What am I going to accomplish that I haven't in 21 years?
00:32:22.000
Throw soft cock at a younger girl and hang out all night until she's deluded enough.
00:32:36.000
Yeah, Becker and I, 10 years from now, we're going to go back and we're going to do a Tribble Run.
00:32:43.000
Tribble Runs are these legendary one-nighters in the Northwest.
00:32:48.000
We should probably fucking entertain or something.
00:32:58.000
That's where I met Joey Coco Diaz on a triple gig in Boulder, Colorado.
00:33:05.000
The Joker Broker, and he came in on a Tuesday and the run was...
00:33:08.000
My driver's license for a long time, because I lived on the road, I didn't have a home, was the fucking Joker Broker's address in Boulder, Colorado.
00:33:27.000
Jay Moore spotted me in the parking lot of the comedy store in the late 90s and said, oh, Dodge Neon.
00:33:36.000
He had some condescending thing where I'm good for the environment or something.
00:33:45.000
The Boulder Broker run was Tuesday in Boulder, then you had Wednesday off, and then you had Thursday in Craig, Colorado, Friday in some other Gunnison, and it ended up in Colorado Springs at some fucking barn.
00:33:57.000
So Tuesdays you had to come to Boulder, and I became friends with Doug, and then Wednesday you had off, so instead of having him stay at a hotel, he stayed at my house.
00:34:10.000
The second time he came back, he had just done evening at the Improv.
00:34:14.000
And you stayed again, and that's how we became friends.
00:34:17.000
He won San Francisco, and he came up to Seattle, and then I talked to him.
00:34:21.000
Well, it's fun when you go on one of those gigs and you meet a real comic, you know, because you never know who you're working with.
00:34:32.000
You're like, hi, I'm the comic, and he's like, I don't know.
00:34:35.000
And he goes on stage, I just had to fucking push me, pull you, like...
00:34:41.000
He was doing a bit about having the shits and the vomits at the same time.
00:34:46.000
But you knew it was honest, because you could tell by Joey's face.
00:34:53.000
And it was about having the push-me-pull-you...
00:34:57.000
Shit, we're trying to figure out which end to aim towards the toilet.
00:35:05.000
I would take 100 Valiums and sell them all for $3 a piece and I would make $50 a show and a steak.
00:35:11.000
And I had to go up every Tuesday in front of the same 80 people and do new material every fucking Tuesday.
00:35:16.000
So I'd have to get the bowl and the paper and write five minutes and no place to practice.
00:35:22.000
I thought you just wrote it and brought it up there.
00:35:24.000
And it was the same people and I remember that.
00:35:27.000
If you got them to lift their head up while they were cutting into the steak that they just paid $6.95 for, you know, those type of people, that was their thing on Tuesdays.
00:35:35.000
Two comics and a steak for $14 or whatever the fuck it was, you know?
00:35:39.000
But it's amazing how that's how I got into comedy.
00:35:42.000
If you could get them to look at you, you did your job.
00:35:45.000
I did a gig once for Mike Clark, Lenny Clark's brother.
00:35:50.000
Lenny Clark is one of the legendary comedians of Boston.
00:35:54.000
And Mike used to book me on a lot of road gigs back in the Boston days.
00:35:58.000
And one of them who booked me was the waiting room of a restaurant.
00:36:01.000
So as people are waiting to be seated, they have a room where they all sit down.
00:36:06.000
I don't know why they didn't just make that a part of the restaurant, too.
00:36:10.000
But they had a band, and then they had a comedian.
00:36:13.000
So these people are just sitting around waiting, and you just go up and start talking about blowjobs and taking shits or whatever stupid act I had at the time.
00:36:22.000
And as I'm talking, I'm in the middle of a bit, right about to hit the punchline, and over the PA system that I'm using, it's like, Johnson, party of two, your table's ready, please come to the front desk.
00:36:37.000
So every time when you were on stage, you could be in the middle of talking, and they would just start announcing people's names.
00:36:47.000
And I replaced a host that was a magician that came out with a bird on stage, but the bird would always get stuck on the lights, and he would shit on them, so they had to fire him.
00:37:02.000
And I'll never forget, when I seen the parrot or whatever it was, shit on him, I went right to the manager.
00:37:07.000
Because you got the hosting job, was the winner of the Bex comedy competition, Bex beer.
00:37:14.000
You are more popular than that brand of beer right now.
00:37:34.000
Why don't you just make it taste like Heineken?
00:37:56.000
I've noticed just from being at comedy clubs, you're always like, what the fuck is that?
00:38:02.000
Well, you start drinking those little light fairy drinks.
00:38:15.000
I hate the beer that I like is advertised to eat.
00:38:43.000
And he went up on stage, and in the middle of his set, there's a priest walking by.
00:38:46.000
And Stan Hope sees him out of the corner of his eye, and he goes, Hey, Father, where are you going?
00:38:50.000
I got a tit-fuck joke that'll blow your fucking socks off.
00:39:10.000
We did Aku Aku on Friday night, but we did Grill 93 on Saturday night.
00:39:16.000
That's where I had to follow you in that monster fucking...
00:39:22.000
I got booed off stage when I followed Jim Brewer once.
00:39:37.000
I didn't know how to get myself out of a bad mindset back then.
00:39:42.000
And if anything happened bad during the day, if I got in a fight with a chick...
00:39:46.000
Anything that went wrong, I could spiral on stage.
00:39:58.000
But on the last show on Saturday night, it was a late show, and the crowd was fucking drunk, and he killed.
00:40:08.000
And I was standing backstage, and this is when my manager had just convinced me to start dressing nice.
00:40:15.000
I was wearing, like, a nice pair of slacks and some nice shoes.
00:40:19.000
And I looked like the most unfunny fuck on earth.
00:40:26.000
I'm dressed like this fucking stylish douchebag.
00:40:31.000
And I'm going to go on stage and I don't dress like this.
00:40:33.000
This is not how I would dress if I was hanging out with my friends.
00:40:44.000
I can't be thinking that I shouldn't be dressed like this.
00:40:54.000
If I moved funny one way or another, my leg would pop out.
00:41:06.000
I mean, every joke that came out of my mouth, I didn't know how to say it right.
00:41:13.000
And the worst part about it was this dude fucking in the crowd goes, man, you're not fucking funny.
00:41:21.000
I couldn't say anything to him because I know he's right.
00:41:37.000
And that was a huge learning point for me, man, about the mindset that you have to have when you go on stage.
00:41:44.000
When you're young and your life is in disorder and you go on stage like that, you could have a goddamn tailspin.
00:41:51.000
I'm gonna be at the Comedy Store bombing one night.
00:41:55.000
Let me just address the fucking elephant in my head.
00:42:07.000
Joey and I are gonna come with you to the Bray and Bray.
00:42:58.000
The mushrooms you're not afraid of, the weed is what's freaking out?
00:43:04.000
It taps you into the fucking nature of the universe.
00:43:06.000
Oh, I was just getting out the fucking, like, the problems that I had in my head, and then I'll be fine now.
00:43:13.000
I just wanted to say I really don't have any concept of time right now.
00:43:20.000
You said it so that now it's my responsibility.
00:43:28.000
I was looking at you kind of melting, wanting to say, but I didn't want to interrupt your story.
00:43:37.000
I'm not fucking 22 fucking kicking on the couch saying call 911. Nah, fuck.
00:43:44.000
Stanhope and I did DMT. One weird thing I had to get out of my system.
00:43:47.000
Stanhope and I did DMT, and Stanhope went into almost like a semi-seizure.
00:43:52.000
And it was the only time I had ever been around anybody who did DMT. Yeah, that's when you came out.
00:43:58.000
But before you came out of it, you were moaning, man.
00:44:08.000
It was the same sound that a guy makes when he gets brutally knocked out.
00:44:11.000
When a guy just gets fucking smashed, they have this...
00:44:15.000
Like the guy last night in the Ultimate Fighter, the first fight.
00:44:21.000
Well, I don't know who it happened to, so thanks for not saying the names.
00:44:41.000
We're going to go watch some professionals gamble.
00:44:43.000
There's this thing called TheActionReport.com and they have professional pool players and they have these big high-level gambling matches where they all pool together like $50,000, $100,000.
00:44:54.000
The buy-in is usually like $10,000 each guy and then they bet a bunch of money on the side.
00:45:11.000
He's writing the mic like the fucking Darth Vader.
00:45:13.000
I was on Opie and Anthony the other day, and I was listening to it when I was in my car, and Bobby Kelly's like, Joe, what are you fucking breathing?
00:45:19.000
And I didn't hear it when I was on the phone, but then I was listening on the radio.
00:45:23.000
I have a stupid headset, and it sits in front of my nostrils.
00:45:36.000
So all you who were listening that day, I'm really sorry.
00:45:38.000
I did not know that I was making those annoying noises in the background.
00:45:41.000
There's going to be some great fights this weekend and motherfucking next weekend.
00:45:48.000
They just announced Ellen Berger against Diego Sanchez.
00:45:52.000
Eve Edwards versus El Cucuy on Spike TV. Oh, shit.
00:45:58.000
They're finally doing that in February or January.
00:46:03.000
Mayhem and Bisping is going to be a crazy fight.
00:46:10.000
Ari Shaffir is going to be there, ladies and gentlemen.
00:46:12.000
He's also going to be playing his famous Ari Shaffir.
00:46:15.000
Non-UFC sponsored, non-UFC sanctioned Hunt for the Edible.
00:46:19.000
I don't know what that means, but if you want to follow it, and I have no connection to this whatsoever, go to Ari Shaffir on Twitter.
00:46:25.000
At A-R-I-S-H-A-F-F-I-R. And he may or may not be hiding weed places.
00:46:31.000
To the UFC on Fox, Ari showed up with a bag of caramels.
00:46:38.000
The other day I called him and I go, I can't believe I'm in traffic.
00:46:42.000
He goes, now you know I always have weed in my car.
00:46:45.000
And he talked me into rolling the joint on the 405. He goes, roll it.
00:46:55.000
I don't mind being in my car in traffic as long as I got that hands-free system and I can talk to people on the phone.
00:47:06.000
Now you catch up on the 20 phone calls you've been...
00:47:12.000
The calls to text, it's like text is five to one.
00:47:16.000
Have you been doing any of the Siri texting while you're in the car?
00:47:19.000
No, as soon as I found out that Siri goes to a fucking database, I just said, why am I doing this?
00:47:26.000
I thought you were talking about that fucking shit that we were talking about the other day.
00:47:31.000
Apparently that was in iOS, the iPhone operating system, in a diagnostic mode only back in the day.
00:47:42.000
Brian and I are talking about some new thing that came out.
00:47:55.000
And what it is, for the folks who don't know what the fuck we're talking about...
00:47:58.000
When you buy an Android phone, Doug Stanhope, you have an Android phone now, alright?
00:48:04.000
I know you tried to be a nice contrarian and go against the tide.
00:48:09.000
Give me one of those things I can fucking see so I don't have to put on reading glasses.
00:48:14.000
Well, apparently every time you send a text, it logs it in a database somewhere.
00:48:21.000
Everything you do is logged in a database somewhere.
00:48:25.000
Sorry, my girlfriend doesn't get on the line much.
00:48:29.000
You think these are the only people that do this, Joe?
00:48:33.000
It's that it's been proven, and that's where it gets interesting.
00:48:36.000
It's not that I don't think other people have done it.
00:48:40.000
The CIA has been trying to do this, trying to have the ability to spy on people.
00:48:44.000
And, you know, the argument is, well, if you're not doing anything wrong, what are you worried about?
00:48:48.000
Yeah, but the point is, it can be done, so it will be.
00:48:57.000
That argument, like, if you're not doing anything wrong, why are you worried about it?
00:49:01.000
They shouldn't be finding every fucking number you press.
00:49:12.000
But I also don't want somebody to know how many times I do happy faces, you know, or stupid stuff like that.
00:49:23.000
At the other end of this fucking wire, there's the human being that does that, and he'll be dead with all that information.
00:49:33.000
What the real picture is is that we're losing all of our secrets.
00:49:37.000
And it's going to come to a point in time where there will be no secrets at all.
00:49:45.000
It is a compelling thought, but everyone's terrified of it because it's being controlled by a group of us.
00:49:51.000
It's by one group of the population, the people who have this information that's being controlled by them.
00:49:56.000
And we don't like the idea of anybody having any control over any of us because we know it's natural human nature to want to dominate people.
00:50:03.000
So when you see something like this, and there's a database that records everything, that's inevitable, right?
00:50:09.000
I mean, if this is the direction that it's going, if you look at just how interconnected everybody is with Facebook now, and you just look at...
00:50:19.000
The person in the cubicle next to you is now a celebrity because she can ego surf herself and go, yeah, fucking Candy Stouffer is a fucking cunt.
00:50:31.000
And that's just because the fucking person next to you in the cubicle that you bitch at every morning is Facebooking about you.
00:50:39.000
And you could get famous with one fucking YouTube video.
00:50:43.000
You can have one YouTube video you put up there and you can get famous.
00:50:47.000
And you'll be as famous as the next YouTube video.
00:51:10.000
I was about to dump Sirius, but now you're getting a show on Sirius.
00:51:14.000
Well, we've been on Sirius for a while on Saturday and Sunday, but fucking dump it.
00:51:22.000
I love Sirius, but I'm just not telling you what to do.
00:51:24.000
No, if I knew I could get it in my car, I'd listen.
00:51:26.000
I'd get to fucking drive an hour and a half to an airport every time.
00:51:32.000
Every weekend, we're on the Opie and Anthony channel.
00:51:35.000
It used to be the virus, but now it's the Opie and Anthony channel.
00:51:38.000
Joe, we should give free passes from Sirius at least.
00:51:55.000
And I listen to news, CNN. There's a lot of good talk radio stations.
00:52:09.000
I have Stern, CNN, BBC, CNN. There's no music on my fucking presets.
00:52:16.000
I have classic vinyl because every now and then I'll hit it for a goof and something goes, ooh, yeah, I forgot that one.
00:52:42.000
I wanted to actually put my watch on the table as a...
00:52:50.000
Are you coming December 30th, that UFC? Brock Lesnar versus Alistair Overeem?
00:52:59.000
We're going to do a Vegas show in February, around Super Bowl time.
00:53:11.000
A, does anyone in the UFC, do any of the fighters not like you?
00:53:16.000
I get along with pretty much every one of them.
00:53:22.000
It's a difficult thing when you're criticizing people that can beat the fuck out of you, and you're criticizing them about their ability to beat the fuck out of each other.
00:53:29.000
And you've got to go, look, man, I'm not saying I can do it better than you, because that's the automatic presumption.
00:53:34.000
I'm just saying, this is what you're doing wrong.
00:53:37.000
Now, who's fighting for the Super Bowl Saturday?
00:53:42.000
Earlier, did you say Bisping's not fighting the fucking guy from the show again?
00:53:52.000
No, they're fighting and they're fighting this weekend.
00:53:58.000
And for Bisping, this brings him into top contender status.
00:54:02.000
If he beats Mayhem, he's right up there with everybody else.
00:54:05.000
Does Mayhem have credits other than the stupid...
00:54:14.000
No, just fraudulent from just a viewer's level.
00:54:19.000
Like, oh yeah, they have a beef and they're gonna...
00:54:39.000
They don't have the Super Bowl card up here, unfortunately.
00:54:45.000
Joey Jingles, watch your fucking change jar, people.
00:54:52.000
The only time I got in trouble, I would steal change out of cars and shit, was when I was an open miker, open miker, and I sold cars, and at night I was living in the city, and I needed change to get back over the fucking bridge.
00:55:05.000
And I would steal quarters or dimes to get $1.35 or something.
00:55:09.000
It was one of those periods, and this is why you always have to worry.
00:55:14.000
When your friends are telling you they don't do drugs, that's when you worry about them.
00:55:20.000
When they go, oh yeah, I'm fucking doing heroin, fucking sage all night.
00:55:47.000
It's just a weird thought that came into my head about a change jar and Joey Jingles.
00:55:57.000
Looking to my left and seeing James Gandolfini there with two of the hottest fucking blondes you've ever seen in your life, ready to get his dick sucked.
00:56:08.000
Like him looking at me and me looking at him going, what up, dude?
00:56:12.000
And me being fucked up with that friend of yours, the girl.
00:56:15.000
Me and Hedberg went in there when he lived on Sierra Bonita.
00:56:19.000
I was fucking staying on his couch, and we went in there as like a dare.
00:56:36.000
She was like fucking throw mama from the train.
00:56:44.000
And she was covered in liver spots or crank sores or whatever.
00:56:53.000
She had been a bartender there since its heyday before.
00:57:02.000
So they couldn't fire her and this old alcoholic ran it.
00:57:05.000
But she threw a blind guy out of the bar for having a dog.
00:57:12.000
And then the regulars that knew her were trying to explain, no, it's a seeing eye dog.
00:57:26.000
You'd be sitting at the bar and your drink is out and...
00:57:38.000
Everyone's listening to me, so I got thrown off.
00:57:40.000
It's just the sound of Joey's breathing and the silence together.
00:57:44.000
You know, you'd have an empty drink and she'd go out, and people would say, no, I'm good right now.
00:57:57.000
But then the next thing you know, you're fucking doing...
00:58:02.000
It was me and Hedberg and Quentin Tarantino, and that's it in this dive shithole.
00:58:13.000
Remember we used to get tennis rackets and play tennis?
00:58:18.000
What was the kid with the long hair from Seattle that was in Ireland doing comedy?
00:58:32.000
Stanhope had to rent a car that was in front of his house.
00:58:35.000
Again, you could just jump in it and drive it whenever you need it.
00:58:41.000
I got busted one time in Santa Monica and San Vicente on fucking rush hour.
00:58:58.000
Another night, Stan Hope is out of town or something like that.
00:59:04.000
And Celine goes, take the car and just bring it to Stan Hope's in the morning.
00:59:15.000
Remember when you lived in Venice in that house that was painted like the American flag?
00:59:22.000
They painted this giant duplex, and it was giant stars and fucking stripes.
00:59:29.000
Oh, so Super Bowl weekend is Diaz versus St. Pierre.
00:59:34.000
Yeah, I don't know if St. Pierre is fully repaired, though.
00:59:38.000
The anger he had from listening to Diaz healed the fucking thing.
00:59:47.000
Listen, let's stop fucking talking like fans and talk like men.
01:00:02.000
Sunday, we're going to have a show here at the Ice House, 8pm.
01:00:25.000
Powerful Joe Diaz Ralphie Mae was making out with your mom?
01:00:48.000
So she had to wait for the cat, and she put a little towel, and she put the fucking towel, and she had all the cats sit around the dead cat and look at them and express their condolences to the cat.
01:00:58.000
And I told Mrs. Stanhope, Mrs. Stanhope, she goes, look at them.
01:01:03.000
They're sitting around going, how are we going to get that ear?
01:01:10.000
If a cat was missing a leg, that belonged to Mrs. Stanhope.
01:01:13.000
And that leads me into plugging the Tucson December 10th.
01:02:05.000
It's a belly button hernia, which is your fucking intestines pouring out of your guts.
01:02:10.000
But the fatter and older I got, the more pronounced it became.
01:02:17.000
Anyway, I put on my website, I'll give you a, if you're a surgeon out there, I'll give you a free DVD if you give me free surgery.
01:02:29.000
What is it like getting under a fan that's going to put you under and open you up?
01:02:33.000
It wasn't fucking Wilds and Whites of West Virginia, fucking Oxycontin, I can fix anything kind of surgery.
01:02:42.000
Yeah, no, there were anesthesiologists that were fans, and you look like Robert De Niro at some points, and I'm trying to fucking ignore a lot of things that are going on in my head, but Which Robert De Niro?
01:02:58.000
it does that naturally but it's kind of twisting out of control that's so funny Doug Stanhope, it's all gonna be groovy.
01:03:19.000
Something about Ralphie Mae making out with your mom.
01:03:29.000
No, I think Joey Diaz just did one of those things where he just ran out and was like, I'm going to drop this bomb and run.
01:03:41.000
It's so important to meet dudes that are just out there on the fringes.
01:03:46.000
We were randomly talking about this last night or this morning about, like, people that you know that are funnier than any comics, you know?
01:03:55.000
Like, when they fucking die, they're like, oh, comedy lost a masterpiece.
01:04:01.000
I have so many people I know that are just fucking funny.
01:04:08.000
My manager is funnier than me, and I know it fucking destroys him.
01:04:12.000
Because he's just genuinely brilliant and funny.
01:04:24.000
Both of them could have been comics if they wanted to be.
01:04:27.000
I know a lot of people that could have been comics.
01:04:41.000
Like the guys I used to hang out with at the pool.
01:04:48.000
Gambling junkies, and they're just wild motherfuckers.
01:04:51.000
Just dudes who weren't fitting into some 9-to-5 suit job.
01:04:56.000
And it wasn't even like comics where comics try to say something funny on purpose.
01:05:10.000
Yeah, you can read a phone book, but he's that funny.
01:05:13.000
Do you remember the early days when dudes would actually try bits on you?
01:05:25.000
It's something I think of that's funny, and I'm just like, oh, I'll just say it out loud to see if everyone thinks it's funny.
01:05:30.000
But it's not like, I've been writing this bit for many, many weeks, and I can't...
01:05:35.000
It's more of something I just thought of maybe like that minute.
01:05:37.000
So you're not sure, so you try it out on people.
01:05:44.000
If you're saying, hey, listen, I'm working on this bit.
01:05:48.000
No, he'll just fucking force me into the conversation.
01:05:55.000
But there was a comic, like an old, like fucking 30 some plus years in the business in the green room.
01:06:31.000
Oh yeah, so he riffs all these jokes as a conversation, but he's doing a guest set, and then goes immediately from the green room and has the exact same conversation that we just had in the green room as a set.
01:06:50.000
He just made you sit and listen to his set so he could warm up.
01:06:58.000
He's like, if I can get it off in front of Stanhope, I'll probably be fine.
01:07:04.000
There's people that are basically almost sociopathic.
01:07:09.000
Their desire to succeed and their desire to do well on stage supersedes everything.
01:07:17.000
And they don't care if they just use you to get their shit off and practice before they go on stage.
01:07:28.000
Instead of fucking your mouth, they're fucking your ear.
01:07:40.000
There's people that just want to talk at you, man.
01:07:49.000
The only insight that I have is the one time that you and I drank that Mata de Cocoa tea.
01:07:56.000
It was the same time, the whole day of the war.
01:08:00.000
And I remember saying, I can't shut the fuck up.
01:08:17.000
Because my head's going faster than I can write.
01:08:27.000
No, you need to hear this because my fucking brain's going and...
01:08:30.000
But it's two people doing that at the same time and it's all fucking pointless and it's a bad notebook.
01:08:39.000
Because a lot of people that are on Adderall day...
01:08:42.000
I mean, but what's the difference between the cocaine high and a speed high?
01:08:47.000
Well, I know Adderall is very much a lot like cocaine.
01:08:50.000
It makes me feel like I'm even getting drips because it's just like a constant reminder that it feels like I'm on cocaine.
01:08:57.000
But it seems like it lasts longer and like where cocaine, you feel this like up and then like 15 minutes later you feel like you're on another line.
01:09:04.000
Cocaine is just like a jolt where for me, Adderall, that just gives me anxiety.
01:09:15.000
I like the chopping up and doing a line is really romantic.
01:09:20.000
And if you're doing the fucking comedy, like the comedy store green room, the main stage green room of the comedy store, just like, I want to chop up a rail.
01:10:01.000
It's a fucking really sketchy neighborhood with a great place to get fried clams.
01:10:05.000
And as we're driving, we see this car beside us.
01:10:10.000
And the people in the backseat had the light on, they had the dome line on, and they were doing coke.
01:10:19.000
She just looks at me and has this fucking evil look in her face.
01:10:25.000
All I did was look over at you, caught you doing coke, and she's going...
01:10:31.000
But it's weird how a little thing like that will...
01:10:36.000
The first time I did acid, I... We lived in a Vegas where I lived with this family.
01:10:43.000
We're all like renting from her, but there was kids in the fucking they'd play basketball in the driveway every day and like you know 8 to 12 years old every day and the first time I did acid we took it and I'm having a fun time and I'm like this is fucking good and then we went back in for a second hit and I put the acid on my tongue and And then we walk back out into this,
01:11:07.000
I'm fucking tripping hard, and there's a bunch of kids, little kids playing basketball, and someone threw me the basketball, so I inhaled, still had the paper on my tongue, and it stuck to the fucking clitoris in the back of your throat.
01:11:25.000
In front of kids, but I'm consciously thinking, I don't want to lose the hit of acid that I just put.
01:11:35.000
So I try to swallow the puke, which makes you puke way harder than anything else.
01:11:43.000
I extreme vomit in front of all these horrified children.
01:11:49.000
And I start picking through the puke because I don't want to lose that hit of acid.
01:11:57.000
And I found the acid in my puke and I wiped it off in my beer neck.
01:12:03.000
The looks on the faces of the children where some guy that was just your neighbor guy kind of guy is coming out and now he's rummaging through his own vomit in the afternoon.
01:12:21.000
And that might queer those kids off into an acid, is my point.
01:12:26.000
Much like you were queered off coke from a finger.
01:12:29.000
Some man in a mullet rummaging through his vomit on a side street in Vegas.
01:12:40.000
To this day, that fucking trip was still legendary.
01:12:47.000
Just from Eaton, did you think when you put it back in your mouth, it hit you harder?
01:12:55.000
No, it was my first time tripping, so I was already on one hit and wanted more, of course.
01:13:12.000
I'm just so happy I remembered why I started this story.
01:13:15.000
It's because you were talking about the cocaine and the woman.
01:13:23.000
It was weird when you started taking a nap just right there.
01:13:31.000
Don't fuck with dudes that are tripping on you.
01:13:43.000
I thought cigarettes just designed to burn forever.
01:13:46.000
There's been a lot of the show that I'm just sitting listening to in my car and I'm like, oh wait, I'm on it.
01:13:52.000
I was just a huge fan sitting back for a while.
01:13:56.000
In California, they actually have these new cigarettes where they stop burning after certain parts of the cigarette.
01:14:04.000
That was a fad, like childproof lighters, but it's a California thing.
01:14:09.000
Well, I don't know if it's all California or if they just did them for all cigarettes, but it's so that people, when they flick them out their windows, it will go out and not blow and catch a fire.
01:14:21.000
Who knows what the fuck they're putting in there anyway.
01:14:23.000
The FDA, Food and Drug Administration, that's what it is.
01:14:26.000
They approved more than 500 different chemicals that are in cigarettes.
01:14:31.000
Well, that's fantastic for Philip Morris, who I've just put...
01:14:40.000
You know, do something with your money or something.
01:15:01.000
I go, I don't really have that much confidence in saving for later.
01:15:12.000
Can I get it with an ATM? Alright, that's all I care about.
01:15:24.000
It was when they're trying to talk to you real business-like, and you go, yeah, I probably won't be alive then.
01:15:34.000
So you got an accountant that's just a regular dude.
01:15:43.000
I can't remember his name, but it's something Jewish.
01:16:12.000
Have you heard about this new fucking thing that's going down, this new bill that they're trying to define the United States as a battleground?
01:16:20.000
First of all, don't fucking O&A me where you're talking to your laptop.
01:16:24.000
I'm trying to make it seem like a conversation.
01:16:35.000
He's constantly just looking at his cell phone.
01:16:38.000
Fucking O, I guess, is always staring at a laptop.
01:16:51.000
There's no pretense with them, but it all seems like they're going out of business.
01:17:00.000
They just have that attitude of, yeah, anytime they're going to start taking boxes out of here.
01:17:12.000
They're just fucking around while they're working?
01:17:16.000
That's a problem when nobody stops everybody from doing that shit.
01:17:19.000
I went on there last time and I felt like, are we really on the air?
01:17:23.000
It's so easy to just fucking check your Twitter all the time.
01:17:26.000
I think it's just because they do it every day.
01:17:28.000
Can you imagine doing this every day for, what, four, six hours?
01:17:38.000
It was very comfortable, but it was like where you go, hey, we're just four of us hanging out.
01:17:45.000
They're just so comfortable with hanging out that it doesn't seem like they're putting on a show.
01:17:50.000
No, it just seemed like that when you're in there.
01:17:53.000
That's my favorite show to do, because when you do that show, it's just like you're hanging out.
01:17:57.000
It doesn't feel like, you know, so many shows, it's like...
01:18:00.000
You feel like you're upright, your posture's upright, and you're just trying to give a good presentation, and then you leave.
01:18:06.000
I never feel like I connected with these people, but, you know, you go to ONA, it's just a hangout, and people just walk in.
01:18:12.000
You know, there was people walking in the hall just wandering in.
01:18:14.000
Fucking Dice Clay walked in and just owned the place, and it was so amazing.
01:18:19.000
Marion Barry, and we were asking him questions about smoking crack.
01:18:25.000
The amount of energy Dice Clay can still put into being Dice Clay.
01:18:40.000
And they're like, well, you're not telling me if this is fucking real right now.
01:18:46.000
The great chick from the comedy store, legendary.
01:18:52.000
That's funny that you immediately knew who it is.
01:19:00.000
You know, they don't have any of the old waitresses working there anymore.
01:19:12.000
And then when they started gyrating on them, I'm like, oh fuck, what is...
01:19:17.000
This is a giant fucking half-naked Robert Plant.
01:19:20.000
Look at Robert Plant's balls and cock right there.
01:19:23.000
That's an 18-foot ceiling and they're projecting Robert Plant's fucking package.
01:19:29.000
He's got his balls and cock are clearly on the left side of his pants.
01:19:38.000
And the way he moves, he would be terrible at fucking.
01:19:47.000
He just looks like the way he moves is like real awkward.
01:19:51.000
I wouldn't want him fucking me, I'll tell you that.
01:19:58.000
This sounds like it's going to become a dance-off.
01:20:03.000
They just didn't have the same awareness back there, I don't think.
01:20:10.000
If you had an all-time favorite band, Led Zeppelin, is it up there?
01:20:16.000
Pink Floyd The Wall would be on my top five albums.
01:20:21.000
But I also have Counting Crows and Tim Curry, who no one knows his fucking music at all.
01:20:34.000
He had one kind of vague hit with I Do The Rock.
01:20:43.000
He did Rocky Horror and then put out two albums and then a best of.
01:21:02.000
There's no Zeppelin album I want to sit on a fucking island and listen to.
01:21:16.000
It does sometimes, but it's great when you're on airplanes.
01:21:24.000
I do those too, but I also like listening to music and writing.
01:21:31.000
And if you're listening, I want a lot of fucking big band swing, but no vocals.
01:21:39.000
That's what I want to listen to when I write, is no vocals.
01:22:18.000
There's only 11 people, but next year we're going to get this rocking.
01:22:22.000
I've never had more fun than being in a death pool.
01:22:31.000
People get super offended when you put them in your death pool, though.
01:22:39.000
So, Tom Sizemore, if you're listening, geez, you know what?
01:22:47.000
How fucked the adrenaline, the self-confidence...
01:22:56.000
Because I need you to die by December 31st because I'm in 7th place.
01:23:06.000
If there's an overdose, I get another 25 points for the overdose.
01:23:24.000
Brian, can you pull up a video of that guy all fucked up?
01:23:29.000
Because I heard that on Celebrity Rehab, he was super fucked up.
01:23:32.000
I heard it like a bunch of different times, but I never saw it.
01:23:38.000
Because I don't follow pop culture, but I watch Celebrity Rehab because I hate Dr. Drew with such a violent passion.
01:23:46.000
Because he's a fucking shyster, snake oil salesman piece of shit.
01:23:52.000
And it's all on the new DVD that'll come out as soon as I can pick a cover.
01:24:04.000
It makes him more evil because he believes what he says.
01:24:08.000
He said some really ridiculous shit about marijuana and the addiction properties of it and the withdrawal effects.
01:24:22.000
He's kind of like, hey, this is what always pisses me off about people when they have this.
01:24:25.000
He adjusts his stance based on fucking the poles, basically.
01:24:30.000
Yeah, well, you know, it's a personal freedom issue, and anybody who doesn't understand that is ridiculous.
01:24:33.000
And if it was really that bad, there'd be a bunch of fucking bodies attributed to it, and there's none.
01:24:38.000
And my real problem with it is that they always have this whole, like...
01:24:51.000
That was me being just self-deprecating and plugging Brea.
01:24:58.000
If you're not listening to this, then you'll have no idea why the show went like that.
01:25:12.000
Always 5. Always 8. Yeah, you can't have a nutty 11.45 show.
01:25:20.000
It was two out of three, three out of four, where they hadn't updated the fucking video screen.
01:25:30.000
Yeah, dude, you keep changing that, and it's distracting.
01:25:34.000
You did search the video for Jeff Conaway, and so I was going to play it.
01:26:09.000
Oh, play this back so I can hear this guy's voice.
01:26:27.000
This is back when they glorified the pre-story.
01:26:47.000
I'm seeing myself breaking that mirror and slicing my f***ing throat with it.
01:26:55.000
I could break them and I could slit my breasts with them.
01:26:59.000
How amazing would it be if this guy didn't do any drugs at all and this was like a role he was playing to try to let people know he could still f***ing act?
01:27:07.000
And Dr. Drew is about to tell him that fucking God will heal it.
01:27:15.000
They put you into 12-step programs, but you're all about God.
01:27:22.000
I agree with you that it's silly if you want to look at it as far as whether it's plausible.
01:27:37.000
I turned my head and I said, I'm laughing and I'm crying.
01:27:49.000
If that guy was really acting, if that wasn't how he really is, if he was just acting, that would be brilliant.
01:28:01.000
But what a great idea it would be to show people how good you can act.
01:28:04.000
Go on celebrity rehab and just fake being fucked.
01:28:08.000
They've had people on there for marijuana addiction.
01:28:13.000
I think he said he's not doing it anymore, which I hate because I love trashing it.
01:28:44.000
It's a name that sticks in your head, like syrup.
01:28:55.000
So I put Sanjay Gupta back into the universe instead of stuck in my head like a fucking leper.
01:29:02.000
That guy took hundreds of thousands of dollars from pharmaceutical companies.
01:29:10.000
I can't stand those fucking foreign pieces of shit coming over to take our fucking white people's pieces of shit jobs.
01:29:25.000
He's coming over here and taking our corruption.
01:29:42.000
Many years, I've seen you turn down weed every single time until this is the first time I think I've ever seen you smoke.
01:30:00.000
The only reason I even passed it to you is because you said before that, I'm even willing to smoke pot.
01:30:15.000
The reason why the edibles have a totally different effect, man.
01:30:22.000
Eat one of these fucking cookies that Joey takes.
01:30:26.000
The problem is it's like every other drug or alcohol, like it would be starting, I'd be 18 years old again, which is what I feel like right now where I'm just fucking stupid and forgetting that we have to fucking entertain you assholes.
01:30:44.000
But the point is, yeah, I don't want to have to start with weed, like, okay, how much can I smoke before a show?
01:30:49.000
It always amazed me that you were so introspective.
01:30:52.000
You're a very introspective dude, and you don't have any ego problems, and yet you didn't smoke weed.
01:31:03.000
When you trip with people, you're all like, we're together.
01:31:08.000
And every time I smoked weed, it seemed like everyone was laughing without me or at me.
01:31:20.000
Because if you're smoking it with us, it's just a giggle fest.
01:31:23.000
We just smoke weed, break down the universe, and laugh at shit.
01:31:26.000
You're probably smoking too much, too, but you're probably thinking it's like a beer where you have to have many hits.
01:31:30.000
Honestly, I think even before a show, one hit usually would be awesome.
01:31:34.000
Yeah, you wouldn't want to do it before a show.
01:31:36.000
It's been so long since I actually was a teenage fucking weed smoker and realized I don't...
01:32:01.000
Short-term memory is a weird thing with marijuana.
01:32:03.000
It's almost like the thoughts are coming at you so quickly you forget with the air 10 seconds later.
01:32:07.000
You're telling me how many push-ups I should be able to do when you can do a fucking lot.
01:32:11.000
I'm just saying there's two different kinds of weed.
01:32:13.000
The indica is probably what you were getting all the time.
01:32:19.000
You're legendary for giving a dude that smokes pot a lollipop and he can't get off a fucking couch.
01:32:39.000
I'm like, if it's going to hit me, it should knock me on my ass.
01:32:47.000
When you take an edible, you know, you want to really blast off into the ultimate, like, the furthest extent that you can...
01:33:14.000
I've quit smoking, uh, quit drinking coffee, rather.
01:33:39.000
I took off a few days and then I had a cup of coffee and it hit me like a lightning bolt.
01:33:44.000
I was like, whoa, is this what coffee is normally like?
01:33:46.000
Because usually I drink it and I don't even feel it.
01:33:51.000
I'll have two cups of coffee in a day and maybe even more when we're doing the podcast.
01:33:55.000
I'll pound down three while we're sitting there.
01:33:57.000
And then you don't realize that your body just developed like, whoa, whoa, whoa, we need to process this shit nice and quick and we need to develop a fucking tolerance for it.
01:34:04.000
And then when you don't have it for a while, your body sort of normalizes.
01:34:08.000
And then you'll have a coffee, and it's like, whoa!
01:34:14.000
I attribute it to alcohol, but my nervous system, when I drink coffee now, a lot of times I just fucking visibly shake just from a...
01:34:27.000
But I don't know if it's my nervous system is, like, that weak where just coffee affects it.
01:34:34.000
You get older, you think everything is attributed to something...
01:34:38.000
I'm so happy when my friends that don't drink all the time don't remember anything like I do.
01:34:45.000
Well, you use your mind a lot more than a lot of people, I bet, just because of the fact you're always writing and you're always performing and you're always putting your act together and organizing it and putting new shit together and putting out DVDs.
01:34:57.000
But, you know, all of us, it doesn't matter who you are, eventually this thing is going to shut off.
01:35:03.000
Well, yeah, there's a water level, a high water mark to how much fun you had, and it has to be more fun than that to register.
01:35:12.000
Okay, yeah, well, I got drunk with you in Indianapolis, but that's happened how many fucking decades in a row?
01:35:31.000
Of course I remember you from 2002, you fucking stude.
01:35:39.000
Yeah, it's interesting when you look back at it.
01:35:41.000
I've likened it to, like, if you went to your entire public schooling, comedy, 21 years of comedy.
01:35:48.000
It's like if you went to your entire public schooling and then college and then a couple years of grad work.
01:35:56.000
But you are shit-faced every day for your entire fucking schooling and in a different school every week.
01:36:04.000
And you come up and say, do you remember me from eighth grade?
01:36:08.000
There's a fucking million eighth grades in this career.
01:36:12.000
Think about the numbers of people you meet every night.
01:36:19.000
You're designed to have like 100 people around you.
01:36:22.000
Because Richard Jenny, when I was, remember that head of the class chick I dated forever, the fucking redhead?
01:36:29.000
I was dating her, so she had done a platypus man pilot for...
01:36:35.000
And so she'd be at the improv, and they'd hug and kiss.
01:36:40.000
And you know how Richard Jenny was a bit of a lech.
01:36:49.000
And I'm like this fucking cunt with a mullet in the corner.
01:37:00.000
And then he was hosting one night at the fucking Montreal.
01:37:24.000
He says, I've never seen this next comic before.
01:37:27.000
And I go, you fucking hit on my girlfriend all the time.
01:37:36.000
I've never met this comic before, but I've heard good things.
01:37:43.000
You fucking try to hammer my girlfriend in front of me like I'm nothing all the time.
01:37:54.000
Do you think that's what really ultimately triggered him?
01:38:09.000
He had one of the fucking best bits, and I've tried to find it on the internet, about something about playing the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald clear parties.
01:38:32.000
And I was just poking fun when I said that on stage.
01:38:37.000
But the point of that story is now I'm Richard Jenny.
01:38:41.000
People are like, you don't fucking remember me.
01:38:46.000
I know you when we're doing shots of Jägermeister.
01:38:57.000
It's a theory that there's only a certain amount of numbers, a certain amount of human beings you can keep inside your head.
01:39:03.000
You can only have, like, a friendship with, like, 150 people.
01:39:07.000
And when it's more than 150 people, you simply don't have storage for it.
01:39:10.000
So all the people that you meet, I mean, you're meeting hundreds of people every fucking weekend.
01:39:14.000
Your brain is just overly burdened when you try to keep in touch with these people and stay friends with them.
01:39:20.000
Because when you first start getting any kind of fame, you're like, oh, you traveled from Youngstown.
01:39:26.000
Well, I'll take you to fucking after hours and then they think they're your friends, but then you get more fans.
01:39:33.000
So there's a value to them because they're fans and you've never had that, which is a shitty thing to say, but it's the truth.
01:39:40.000
Then you get more fans and you're like, all right, I'm not taking you to fucking breakfast.
01:39:49.000
And then you don't even understand why they like you.
01:40:00.000
No, no, I was trying to bring that to an absurd place, but you can't be friends with your fans on some level.
01:40:11.000
You got a bunch of fucking psychos following you around, dude.
01:40:16.000
I have a suicide letter I got to post on my site.
01:40:20.000
We got a 4th of July, and I had my lawyer fucking fact check it, and they...
01:40:29.000
Somebody killed themselves and sent a letter to you?
01:40:45.000
I always put my address on the fucking website.
01:41:02.000
Take your fucking co-workers picture of their niece off their desk and mail it on the company dime right now to Bingo at 212 Van Dyke Street.
01:41:14.000
Like Dick Van Dyke, 212 Van Dyke, Bisbee, Arizona, 85603. So I put this, I'll do this every now and then on radio or on my Facebook just because Ben goes retarded and she never understands why all these packages are showing up with fucking post-it notes.
01:41:33.000
Some guy sent his co-worker's phone while he just unplugged their phone.
01:41:38.000
It was like, I don't know if it's FedEx or UPS. The guy wrote, he said, this is my last day on the job, so I'm going to send you...
01:41:45.000
He sent a scanner that's so obsolete that they can't replace them, so it has value, and he's quitting his job anyway, so he sent something, UPS or FedEx, on their dime as of, fuck you, quitting their job.
01:42:10.000
Fucking UPS scanner, I drop everything at the thrift store.
01:42:23.000
Have you noticed how many t-shirt companies there are?
01:42:31.000
Because guys with fucking beer guts don't wear t-shirts.
01:42:47.000
Occasionally you do narcotics and they go, oh, hey, yeah, I have a sex drive.
01:43:02.000
Yeah, but it wasn't, like, we'd just start laughing in the middle.
01:43:19.000
It's like if you just didn't, you weren't hungry anymore.
01:43:27.000
But it's funny how many people, their lives are defined by that lust and that passion, how important it is for them.
01:43:34.000
Well, you do see where, like, my comedy has fucking slouched since then, but you realize that you boil it all down to what was the root cause of all this desire?
01:43:46.000
And then you get, and then you fucking blow a load on her tits, and you go, hmm, isn't there a better way to say I like you?
01:43:58.000
If she likes it and you like it, it's pretty fucking fun.
01:44:00.000
But it's nature's fuck job where now you can think past nature where you go, all right, now I see what nature does, but nature's fucked.
01:44:09.000
Where you can look at the actual fucking planet Earth and go, you fucked up.
01:44:16.000
I know it's a pompous attitude, but I guess to say that nature is fucked and we're right...
01:44:28.000
I think that everything we do is ultimately very natural.
01:44:32.000
Fucking the chemicals you're promoting are natural because it came from somewhere in the earth.
01:44:44.000
I think people are so fucked up because our organism is designed to promote a purpose.
01:44:50.000
And that purpose seems to be technologically related.
01:44:54.000
And Red Band's purpose is to get me a cocktail, little lady!
01:45:02.000
I'll take one of your diet fucking off-brand 7-ups.
01:45:15.000
But he's got like some fucking off-brand Sam's Cola kind of...
01:45:18.000
He told me he keeps energy drinks for the porn stars.
01:45:29.000
I try to get rid of that fucking Jägermeister burden.
01:45:32.000
Just saying Jägermeister on stage, you feel like I'm fucking a 44-year-old man saying Jägermeister.
01:45:41.000
At some point where you go, I'm too old to do this.
01:45:50.000
But somehow another whiskey, you could be 60 and still get a shot of whiskey.
01:45:53.000
You're doing Jager bombs when you're 60. Exactly!
01:45:57.000
But I've grown a taste for all this shit, where all the beer that I like is just shit, horrible corporate beer.
01:46:10.000
But no, the fact that you see all the ads are geared towards the dumbest people alive and you go, I like your product.
01:46:18.000
Why do you make me feel like an asshole for fucking having a giant ad campaign saying that the fucking label tells me when it's cold because I don't have fucking temperature?
01:46:37.000
I know what you're talking about, when it treats you like you're dumb, but there's a lot of shit that's cool.
01:46:48.000
I like when I hit the gas, it goes, I'm very aware that we're on a planet, and this planet's a part of a galaxy, and this galaxy's a part of the universe.
01:47:05.000
She's the one who had the fucking gall to create life without its consent.
01:47:09.000
Yeah, that's my attitude towards anybody that tells you that you're supposed to be really involved in our political system.
01:47:14.000
Hey, we're born into a fucking system that we have no control over and it's absolutely completely fucked.
01:47:18.000
You want me to really get involved and invested in this?
01:47:31.000
But then the federal government is always the big daddy looking over the whole pile.
01:47:34.000
But it's something that you learn to avoid the same way you avoid fucking scorpions.
01:47:45.000
Well, not often enough, but if it's been sitting there for a while, you shake it out.
01:47:52.000
The point is, the same way you avoid every other fucking obstacle, you just avoid the government.
01:47:58.000
You vote for Ron Paul and it makes you feel good and there's nothing to do on a Tuesday anyway.
01:48:10.000
That's the thing is people have to brag and then call it a church.
01:48:14.000
They have to be fucking like, ooh, I'm going to get on fucking radio until everyone's coming to my compound.
01:48:32.000
Yeah, you can get plenty of pussy just running it that way.
01:48:36.000
Everyone that's in a fucking criminal element has to be so, like...
01:48:41.000
What gets them to the party ultimately drowns them.
01:48:46.000
If Occupy Wall Street would dress up like Wall Street so they were indecipherable...
01:49:08.000
I was thinking, Brian, we should do a Guy Fawkes mask day where we wear the mask.
01:49:23.000
You're going to walk for a cure is what you're going to do.
01:49:26.000
What they are though, dude, is they're representing giant numbers.
01:49:34.000
And the beautiful thing about this whole Occupy Wall Street thing is there's no leaders.
01:49:46.000
The point is it could be done like Yes Men style.
01:49:53.000
It's like a Dane Cook audience without a comic.
01:50:05.000
Like any movement, most of the populace is going to be a fucking dimwit.
01:50:11.000
Well, you know, I mean, if you want to go back and read the conspiracy theories of the 60s and the 70s, the idea was that they were engineering our civilization to be this stupid.
01:50:22.000
And that they were engineering the poor neighborhoods to have shit education and keeping the priorities of education at a minimum so that they can continue to run people because most people are too fucking stupid to realize what's going on.
01:50:39.000
It's because the internet now has allowed pretty much everybody to see what's really happening in the world, see where the real numbers are going and the money's going.
01:50:48.000
He sees something you can't even see on the internet.
01:50:55.000
Right now, they have baskets out in the desert where they're looking to put your gold!
01:51:07.000
Remember when we were talking about Occupy L.A., and I said something silly about how I think they should move to the trees and make an Ewok village?
01:51:19.000
Dude, I told you before the podcast, we were saying that that guy's a guy from Fear Factor.
01:51:39.000
And a lot of them, this is where they fucking live.
01:51:51.000
I don't know what's happening, but to me, I see...
01:51:53.000
These numbers of people moving and these numbers of people protesting are unprecedented.
01:51:59.000
We've never had a public display of how fucking pissed people are like this.
01:52:05.000
A public display of how many people are saying this is insane.
01:52:14.000
First of all, the real unfortunate aspect of it all is that they're trying as hard as they can to control it.
01:52:27.000
The most unfortunate aspect of it is that if it keeps growing, they're going to keep pushing it back, and eventually something's going to break.
01:52:34.000
I mean, we've already had people getting hurt, people getting hit with tear gas canisters in their fucking face, flash grenades.
01:52:41.000
We've already had a lot of that shit happen, but if it keeps growing, it's going to keep pushing, and they're going to have to push back.
01:52:53.000
No one's explained to me what the fucking fight is.
01:52:58.000
The fight is that people didn't want all these bailouts.
01:53:15.000
I don't want to say ignorant, but what it is is it's an unfocused anger with a good percentage of the people who have a clear idea what's the problem.
01:53:25.000
But there's a lot of them that are absolutely just running around like...
01:53:29.000
From a completely military point of view, yes, you need a bunch of stupid people who don't really know what's going on.
01:53:36.000
Unfortunately, they get interviewed by the press.
01:53:39.000
You need fucking numbers, and most of the populace is dumb as shit, and you have to get numbers.
01:53:44.000
Not only that, there's also a real tactic of agent provocateurs where there's cops that dress up and go in and start shit and then arrest everybody.
01:53:54.000
But why don't they do the fucking same thing back?
01:53:58.000
Without the insignia, yeah, put on fucking riot gear.
01:54:11.000
Yeah, be as intimidating as the, more intimidating than the cops.
01:54:15.000
Yeah, put on the attire of a guy who has a country club membership.
01:54:17.000
I really, I just want to be a punch-up writer for fucking Occupy Wall Street.
01:54:23.000
Yeah, the system's fucked, and I'm glad that you're out there doing something.
01:54:26.000
I just want to fucking write some ideas for you, rather than make it so fucking obvious, like, I'm a hippie, a Well, don't you think that's just inevitable?
01:54:35.000
Whenever you have any sort of a gathering, anybody can join.
01:54:39.000
Are you going to kick the people that suck out?
01:54:41.000
No, I quit comedy and go out and go, here's a better sign.
01:54:52.000
But how is that going to help you get rid of all the retards?
01:55:01.000
You have fucking two kids now, and you can pretend like you're going to have an influence on their life.
01:55:06.000
You can have an influence on their life, for sure.
01:55:13.000
Fucking Patton Oswalt had the great bit about how kids always rebel against their parents.
01:55:18.000
So I'm going to be the worst parent in the world, and I'm going to have...
01:55:22.000
Phil Collins, no jacket required, framed on the mantelpiece, so my kids turn out cool.
01:55:31.000
Yeah, it's a weird idea, you know, trying to figure out what way to push and pull your kids.
01:55:41.000
You see them, you know, like, getting upset that you telling them that they can't do something, and so they rebound the other way.
01:55:48.000
You know, you can see that pattern developing really early.
01:55:51.000
Where a lot of us, you know, I mean, I don't know how you were raised, but I met your mom.
01:55:55.000
You're the only friend I have that I don't dismiss once I have kids.
01:56:00.000
Because you have kids like a fucking terrarium project.
01:56:18.000
Well, I guess most of us are the guy that brings their girl.
01:56:25.000
It's almost like your friends are TMZ. No, I'm going to keep everything private away.
01:56:31.000
I don't think you know me as well as most people.
01:57:07.000
When you said, hey, come to the UFC. Oh, I don't like that, man.
01:57:11.000
There's a lot of dudes that integrate these girls that they're dating into their fucking comedy life and they bring them everywhere.
01:57:28.000
But I don't think you should always do things together.
01:57:31.000
I think there's nothing wrong with having completely separate lives.
01:57:35.000
Bingo is like my best fucking friend in the world.
01:57:40.000
For what me has always worked is you've got to separate church and state.
01:57:47.000
So, yeah, there's always been kind of a border.
01:57:52.000
No, it's nothing you introduced into any relationship.
01:58:09.000
Do you want an energy drink to push you over the top?
01:58:16.000
Yeah, my fucking head has been in so many places.
01:58:19.000
When you're just like, oh, what's a microphone?
01:58:27.000
All right, I understand what a microphone is, and I'm not really baffled anymore by the fact that we can talk to a million people.
01:58:37.000
I think it's amazing how well you've actually held it together.
01:58:45.000
This Occupy Wall Street thing, this is why I pulled this article up because I knew we were going to talk about this.
01:58:50.000
This is the National Defense Authorization Act.
01:58:53.000
This is what I was talking about earlier, where they're literally going to define the U.S. homeland as a battlefield and make U.S. citizens subject to military apprehension and detainment for life without access to a trial or attorney.
01:59:08.000
I mean, there's something that they've crafted.
01:59:10.000
This is another high thing, but you're acting like law matters.
01:59:14.000
No, I'm not, but I'm acting like this is the reaction.
01:59:25.000
I mean, people are really freaking out about this.
01:59:26.000
Yeah, if you're one guy that occasionally brings something to a Supreme Court every four years and they go, you were right, you were fucked, and then he gets nothing out of the battle.
01:59:39.000
Well, what this is is trying to turn the U.S. into a place where they can have the military patrol things.
01:59:45.000
So the military would control things like Occupy Wall Street.
01:59:48.000
They're preparing for civil unrest, and they're preparing to do it legally.
01:59:52.000
What they're preparing to do is to make the United States a battleground so that when you are in a situation like Occupy Wall Street, you're literally like an enemy combatant.
02:00:02.000
But they've been doing that for fucking 10 years.
02:00:07.000
And they're so blatant about it that they're literally putting this on paper.
02:00:13.000
You know, they're trying to pass this through, and people are fucking freaking out about it, man.
02:00:20.000
But it's still amazing that this is something that they're so fucking stupid.
02:00:26.000
They live in an age of the media reporting things.
02:00:28.000
And when these things get out on the internet and CNN's not covering it and Washington Times isn't covering it, but you can get it on your fucking computer and go, what is this shit?
02:00:38.000
And then you make some phone calls and you find out it is and everybody freaks the fuck out.
02:00:51.000
Look, there's a reason why people are freaking out, and these people need to be addressed.
02:00:57.000
And the way to deal with it isn't a fucking tank.
02:01:07.000
The internet is the most drastic fucking thing to ever be introduced to a society ever.
02:01:15.000
You see people that are rolling their own cigarettes.
02:01:27.000
So when everyone's down, that's how revolutions, there's no fucking revolution of the middle class.
02:01:47.000
But it's not based on the best that people are capable of.
02:01:51.000
The best people are capable of, they're capable of much more than that.
02:01:54.000
It's just that we can't pull it off on a mass scale.
02:01:59.000
We're more than capable of pretty fucking awesome behavior on an individual basis.
02:02:03.000
And the key is trying to figure out how that can be relayed to the entire population as an ethic.
02:02:09.000
And the only way that's going to ever work is if people feel like the system that they operate under is fair.
02:02:15.000
Right now, the people feel like they look at all the money that's going to these CEOs that have been fucking...
02:02:24.000
Don't ever confuse your fan base with what lives in the fucking world in the dark houses on the fucking Route 66. You're right.
02:02:33.000
They don't ever think about There's plenty of people that do, though.
02:02:36.000
The people that are informed should be the ones you're paying attention to, right?
02:02:39.000
Water cooler talk where they fucking mimic bumper stickers.
02:02:43.000
But they have no idea what a fucking CEO is or how it affects their...
02:02:49.000
They just want to fucking get Velveeta cheese for their fucking kid.
02:02:57.000
The real question, though, is why are they like that?
02:03:00.000
And the question is, are they like that because of nature or nurture?
02:03:02.000
Are they like that because they grew up in this fucked up society where, you know, in the 50s and 60s or whatever the fuck time they were developing, there was no information.
02:03:12.000
But you act like information is something that people want.
02:03:17.000
Whether you want it or not, there's enough people that want it that are moving things.
02:03:25.000
We think you have fucking three million listeners, but they just want to hear fistfuck jokes.
02:03:33.000
Facebook has made me realize how many times people laugh for the wrong reasons because they comment about it.
02:03:39.000
Do you lose all respect for a dude when you see a legit LOL? It's so easy to lose respect for someone.
02:03:48.000
That's what I was talking about earlier, though.
02:03:56.000
Yeah, well, when you do LOLs to me, I actually do think it's funny because I know it's not a real LOL. It's like you're making fun of the fact that you're saying LOL. You're being a silly face.
02:04:07.000
Where, hey, in the sitcom day that you were around for and...
02:04:17.000
And you're like, alright, that's such a cliche.
02:04:20.000
That now it's a cliche of when it was a cliche.
02:04:36.000
Why do I have to see my goddamn ugly head everywhere I look?
02:04:46.000
Doug, you actually look really healthy this time.
02:04:51.000
My house was on the fucking Women's Group Bisbee Home Tour.
02:05:09.000
I called someone with an excuse where I go, I'm ashamed to admit it has something to do with the Bisbee Women's Club.
02:05:18.000
So they would do a tour of the homes in the area?
02:05:22.000
Every year they do a Bisbee home tour because there's a lot of weird houses there.
02:05:26.000
So after 29 years in a town of 6,000, they were out of ideas, so they came to us because we paint our rocks weird.
02:05:52.000
Was when you would do those pedophile baitings.
02:05:56.000
Yeah, I put them out in a book, but the title of the book is Fun with Pedophiles.
02:06:02.000
I never even considered, because, you know, I'm the fucking last guy to even think about technology.
02:06:17.000
You say this while you have a cigarette in your hand.
02:06:20.000
I never thought that people wouldn't want to punch pedophiles into a search engine.
02:06:38.000
Yeah, but fun with pedophiles, that is a problem.
02:06:42.000
You gotta be real careful about that these days.
02:06:45.000
There's like some crazy search engine database with the FBI, right?
02:07:01.000
Yeah, so folks, go get that book because it is fucking hilarious because I remember when a lot of them were online.
02:07:06.000
That's the only stuff I've ever done that I go back and I laugh my balls off at my own stuff.
02:07:17.000
I read and I fucking laugh like someone else wrote it.
02:07:27.000
It's not active, but you can read all their shit.
02:07:32.000
There's a guy called don'tevenreply.com that fucks with Craigslist people, but he only updates it like every fucking three months.
02:07:41.000
You come back from Europe and you're like, oh, don't even reply.
02:07:50.000
Go to don'tevenreply.com and say do some more shit.
02:07:55.000
Do you remember when the Jerky Boys weren't famous?
02:07:59.000
Remember when it was like a tape that would go around?
02:08:01.000
Like, they're making a documentary out of, what did you...
02:08:08.000
Red bar was, that's what Moe Sislak is based on in The Simpsons, is the tube bar.
02:08:15.000
And they based Moe Sislak on the tube bar tapes.
02:08:25.000
And then he'd finally catch on and he'd go, you motherfucker, cocksucker, I'll fucking kill you, I'll find your mother, I'll fucking kill her.
02:08:38.000
Oh, Winnebago Man is a documentary based on those days, which is fantastic.
02:08:43.000
Winnebago Man is based on this guy who was a Winnebago salesman who would do these videos where he was doing a commercial, and then he would fuck up the take, and they played all the outtakes.
02:08:53.000
When he would fuck up, he'd start squaring, you motherfucker!
02:09:05.000
It was actually a documentary where at the end you're like, oh, I fucking feel really good about myself.
02:09:14.000
It was, because the guy was a fucking horrible...
02:09:32.000
Trying to give these guys everything they can get to me.
02:09:47.000
I feel like those guys that were like, oh, we knew this when they were a garage band!
02:09:54.000
Looks like he's just trying to do a good time and he keeps fucking up.
02:10:03.000
I think I'm gonna be walking in and out if you're gonna fuck up and I gotta come back.
02:10:06.000
I don't make any difference to me at this juncture.
02:10:20.000
So this guy got famous because of this video that went around back in the day when people just passed off tapes, dude.
02:10:34.000
Yeah, I had a friend from Austin who used to give me these fucking mixtapes that he would make.
02:10:39.000
I just got rid of them recently because I had already seen the images a hundred times, but his videos would be all the weirdest shit that he ever found, and he would splice them together.
02:10:51.000
If you Google search red band java lamps, I have a few of them like that.
02:10:56.000
It was right when the internet videos were becoming big, like the crazy shit, like a woman found inside of an alligator type shit.
02:11:03.000
And it was just spliced, and I put it with trippy music.
02:11:17.000
That idea as a virus or as an organism could transfer all over the place from person to person and even be duplicated even though it gets really fucking grainy when it gets third and fourth generation.
02:11:33.000
Did you ever see Barnyard Betty when you were a kid?
02:11:42.000
Like, when I was a young comic, there was a guy named Captain Rowdy.
02:11:48.000
Did he wear, like, leather jackets and shit on stage?
02:11:52.000
There's a lot of dudes like that who had, like, a fucking whole thing.
02:12:09.000
He would be in my death pool if he had a Wikipedia page.
02:12:22.000
I want to do a documentary about all the 80s comics that thought they had it made.
02:12:32.000
But they banked their light, and you know some of the relics of that.
02:12:36.000
Do you ever see the documentary Beyond the Mat?
02:12:43.000
And it has, like, Jake the Snake Roberts, and he's all fucking playing in some armory in Kearney, Nebraska, and smoking crack.
02:12:51.000
And then old guys that are still trying to do it, and their knees are falling apart, but they're still in it.
02:12:59.000
So it's a whole balance of this whole wrestling scene, like new guy, old guy, how it fucks.
02:13:05.000
I would love to do a documentary like that about comedy.
02:13:15.000
Vic Dunlop was like a guy that when I thought of this idea, Captain Rowdy is such a fucking magnificent story.
02:13:24.000
But do you think those guys, I mean, some of them are still working, right?
02:13:29.000
Like the guys, to get a perspective of the guy that is fucking dying and lost his legs to diabetes and just did coke down to where he's playing fucking Biloxi, Mississippi.
02:13:44.000
It would just be a beautiful fucking documentary to watch.
02:13:49.000
They're just guys who just rode it till the wheels fell off.
02:13:52.000
And there's guys that are still doing triple gigs in their 60s, but they're happy with it.
02:14:00.000
When I was living in Boston, there was a lot of guys who were older guys.
02:14:02.000
People won't accept when people are happy with things that they've built some kind of fake value system on.
02:14:13.000
No, I'm actually fucking wicked happy living in a small town.
02:14:19.000
I didn't move there to fucking make it big, stupid.
02:14:25.000
Doug, do you remember when we first met, I came to- I forgot Brian's here and I'm like, who's talking?
02:14:30.000
I came to Ohio University and it was like I recorded you and it was- That's still on YouTube.
02:14:39.000
They fucking, they billed me as, I still, and it was that tour, if not that night, is the last time I can remember doing a show sober.
02:14:50.000
And I remember, like, Ed Helms was on the fucking bill.
02:15:09.000
They billed it as, like, a family-friendly show.
02:15:17.000
And there's not a lot of fucking on-campus options for entertainment.
02:15:25.000
And under fucking fun for all the family is the Comedy Central Presents tour with Doug and everyone else that they found fine.
02:15:36.000
And I'm like, your kid's going to get fucked here.
02:15:39.000
People in the video, people are yelling like, You get off stage!
02:15:43.000
If you like this, you're like some angry dad right beside where he's filming.
02:16:00.000
No, it's just pieces of your set, and then it goes to the part where the guys start yelling.
02:16:26.000
Fred Norris would never have these kind of delays.
02:16:32.000
Part of the charm is the fact that there's fucking glitches in the Matrix.
02:16:37.000
I barely can understand what you're saying, unfortunately.
02:16:51.000
He's full of shit, and anyone crazy enough to listen to that motherfucker is full of shit.
02:17:06.000
But the whole time there's just people standing up and just like filing out because this was like the first...
02:17:10.000
I think this was like the first weekend with like all the new students, you know, where they...
02:17:27.000
Yeah, we did those fucking music festivals knowing I was going to get fucking trashed.
02:17:42.000
These are people that bought tickets for three days.
02:17:51.000
I'm not fucking Hedberg where I go, here's another joke.
02:17:58.000
I'm a fucking two hour podcast of me stuttering and looking for a cigarette.
02:18:04.000
And then yelling about something when it strikes me.
02:18:08.000
They were fucking just audibly booing me just because I'm boring to them.
02:18:16.000
They know what you're doing, and they want to see it, and a person who doesn't know you, it's like you don't even want to try to get them in there.
02:18:26.000
You know, like, when you're coming up, your act is sort of designed to work on as many people as possible?
02:18:45.000
Stand on the porch like Fight Club for three days.
02:18:49.000
You must get a lot of weird motherfuckers to come visit you.
02:19:01.000
When I first moved to LA, Doug was the first person that I was friends with, I think.
02:19:06.000
Well, you, obviously, Joe, but Doug would call me up and just be like, Hey, man, I'm bored.
02:19:13.000
The only stuff you can say behind your back is you're very angry.
02:19:21.000
No, I'm saying it's always fun to talk shit behind Joe's back.
02:19:26.000
So I'm saying I probably talked a lot of shit about Joe to you.
02:19:31.000
Well, we used to make these videos because he got mad at Verizon DSL because he had DSL at the time.
02:19:38.000
And so we were like, let's go to the thrift store.
02:19:41.000
So we'd go to the thrift store and we'd buy like terrorist outfits.
02:19:48.000
And I sent them to all the Verizon corporate office numbers.
02:19:51.000
It was like two days after that guy had been beheaded.
02:19:57.000
I remember being like, all right, you could get too much shit.
02:20:05.000
Yeah, no, but this was the day after everyone was like...
02:20:12.000
This message is for the infidels at Verizon DSL. This is embarrassing.
02:20:18.000
You told me my service would be turned on in three days.
02:20:26.000
Your Billy people send me to your technical people.
02:20:30.000
And then they say, He's got a burka on for some reason.
02:20:37.000
Back before the Muslims wore tags off their burkas.
02:20:46.000
Hey, why don't we just play the fucking man show?
02:20:52.000
The second video is where he hits me in the head.
02:21:00.000
This podcast has been like fucking, what has it been, like two and a half hours long?
02:21:12.000
Well, the first 20 minutes, I'm like, we've been here for like four hours.
02:21:28.000
It's not like we're putting in work on the fucking job.
02:21:30.000
You want to dig another 20 minutes and then call it a night?
02:21:40.000
You don't want to see me get hit in the head with a fucking...
02:21:45.000
It's not like the fucking Brea Improv where they're paying for parking.
02:21:55.000
If it goes too long, just make it fucking three parts.
02:22:07.000
You quit the cigarettes for a little bit, right?
02:22:22.000
I quit for a year, like 2008. And then went to Costa Rica.
02:22:37.000
And you just figured, fuck it, just for this vacation.
02:22:43.000
So I've been trying to quit since 2008. Oh, wow.
02:22:51.000
That's gotta be a very weird thing, connected to something.
02:22:57.000
The worst part is every time he smokes, I want to light one up immediately.
02:23:00.000
I just see it, and I'm like, alright, I gotta light one up.
02:23:02.000
I told you I quit coffee recently, but it's only been like eight days.
02:23:07.000
I'm just seeing what it's like to just not drink coffee for a long time.
02:23:12.000
But when you said fried clams in a conversation before, I just fixated on fried clams and I made my face make the motions like I'm listening, but I was thinking, and then you said something about fucking burritos.
02:23:29.000
No, it's just the third time when you say coffee, I'm like, fucking Bailey's coffee.
02:23:33.000
And then I'm looking around and I distract myself.
02:23:36.000
So what you're saying is that I got a good voice for advertising.
02:23:39.000
Just every now and then you mention a fucking thing.
02:23:42.000
I'm just saying, when I look like I'm being fake, I am.
02:23:46.000
Because you're thinking about whatever delicious item.
02:23:49.000
I'm thinking like, why is Robert De Niro saying I should have a Bailey's coffee?
02:23:58.000
I think more of the Julio Galatius guy or whatever that guy is.
02:24:10.000
I dedicate this song to all the girls I've loved before.
02:24:17.000
At one point, I thought I was getting my elbow in the pool because the ashtray is right here.
02:24:22.000
And at one point, I'm like, and I pulled away like I was going to get my elbow.
02:24:25.000
Did you smoke all those cigarettes during the time we do this podcast?
02:24:30.000
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
02:24:41.000
But he goes to the doctor, so he knows he has emphysema.
02:25:08.000
Like, Ron White has this whole circular exemption from everything.
02:25:19.000
You don't know why Ralphie May got the amnesty, but Ron White earned it, and he has this whole...
02:25:38.000
And Andy, he has bought a couple of Andy Andrus bits.
02:25:44.000
And when I saw him in Austin, I go, yeah, you're buying...
02:25:50.000
And he said, without any shame whatsoever, Ron White says, yeah, we buy a lot of really funny bits.
02:25:58.000
And then what we do is take the teeth out of them so they're not funny anymore.
02:26:08.000
He's just like, yeah, I'm fucking buying material.
02:26:11.000
I'm fucking selling fucking snake oil to fucking suckers because I know this ain't going to last.
02:26:26.000
He'll tow his fucking Rolls Royce off the back of his tour bus.
02:26:38.000
He's, like, flashing all this because he knows it's pointless.
02:26:42.000
Oh, so you mean, like, vanilla ice, like, flashy, like, you know, like, drives, rolls, rolls.
02:26:48.000
Like, I'm sorry, this is the second time in fucking three days where I try to find a fucking rapper.
02:26:54.000
And I came up with LL Cool J. Let's go with Birdman because he's known for his love of automobiles and he's very wealthy.
02:27:09.000
That's why reality TV works because everyone wants to think they could do it too.
02:27:13.000
And that's why rap music works because, yeah, you could do it too.
02:27:42.000
But I can look at fucking Zeppelin on the wall and go, I'm fascinated that someone could learn to do that.
02:27:48.000
Not someone sat on a fucking bus with a notebook.
02:27:53.000
Bitching about their fucking shit and made it rhyme.
02:27:55.000
For almost everybody except Notorious B.I.G. He didn't just make shit rhyme.
02:27:59.000
He made shit rhyme with a flow and a rhythm to it that was fun.
02:28:16.000
Listen, I am fucking preaching from the most uneducated...
02:28:25.000
I'm like the last guy, and that's why I always say I hate music, is because I'm such a comedy snob.
02:28:32.000
That I know if someone said, oh, who do you like, Jeff Dunham and Peanut?
02:28:36.000
And I immediately hate you because you said that.
02:28:40.000
Like, I have a bias against you, and I know that I'm that much of a pedestrian when it comes to music.
02:28:46.000
So if I go, yeah, I fucking love The Counting Crows.
02:28:51.000
There's no apology, which is an apology when you say, I'm not even apologizing for liking...
02:28:59.000
I mean, for most people, music is sort of a source of pleasure.
02:29:05.000
What is it about it that you think interferes with the noise in your head?
02:29:11.000
I found it summed up succinctly in a book that I will now misquote and ruin.
02:29:25.000
I always want to say Alistair, but it's not Alistair.
02:29:32.000
He summed up how pop music ruined the pub culture in England.
02:29:36.000
Because when they introduced the jukebox, that played over the conversation that you were there to have.
02:29:45.000
And now someone introduced music where either you want to listen to the music or you want to have the conversation.
02:29:54.000
It's something that I want to enjoy if I'm really high.
02:29:58.000
I have 400 songs from my life that I can remember that I like.
02:30:05.000
If I need music, I go to it like people go to comedy clubs once a year.
02:30:24.000
Like most people, comedy is a part-time thing to us.
02:30:28.000
Fucking listening and words and I fucking love music.
02:30:37.000
I love listening to it sometimes when I'm just thinking about shit.
02:30:46.000
I don't know how to play a fucking single instrument.
02:30:53.000
Believe me, I wish my fucking likes were more normal.
02:30:57.000
A lot of people want to be fucking weird and out there.
02:31:04.000
I wish I could play three songs on my iPod without someone saying, what the fuck is this that's the theme to Welcome Back Cotter?
02:31:16.000
Yeah, I've got some stupid shit on my iPod, too.
02:31:32.000
That skinny dude with an afro is just beating everybody's ass.
02:31:53.000
He was my first celebrity sighting when I moved to Los Angeles.
02:32:01.000
I used to sell coke to him through a glory hole.
02:32:05.000
Greatest American hero used to come in there every day.
02:32:08.000
The greatest American hero, he used to suck my dick.
02:32:33.000
I mean, I don't smoke, but I like the fact that you can smoke in here.
02:32:36.000
There's not a radio station in the world where you can actually smoke in a studio.
02:32:44.000
Every time you go, do you have friends that do radio like Dale Dudley?
02:32:50.000
I've lived in Arizona for six and a half years, never done Tucson radio somehow.
02:33:00.000
They're the shittiest fucking comedy club in the world that still exists since 1980. How far is Tucson from you?
02:33:09.000
But it's 90 minutes with no fucking traffic lights.
02:33:27.000
Yeah, well, the copper mine went bust in the 70s, so all the property values dropped.
02:33:41.000
How do they figure out how to get all together, though?
02:33:46.000
How do people, like, everybody say, listen, there's fucking two of us.
02:33:59.000
You stopped doing your yearly thing, didn't you?
02:34:03.000
We had a fucking Death Valley party that we'd do every year.
02:34:16.000
So the whole idea was to bring all those people into Death Valley with no fucking cell phone reception or TVs.
02:34:26.000
And we did that until I get to a point where seven years in, well, people that brought people last time brought people and these people.
02:34:37.000
So none of your friends are there and all their friends.
02:34:39.000
So it's like after a show and you're just like shaking.
02:34:47.000
The fucking house would tilt us to when there was some plainclothes.
02:34:51.000
Yeah, I would imagine that you and your crowd would be a perfect target.
02:34:55.000
There's like seven cops in Death Valley, so the one guy comes in a polo shirt and they're like, he's a cop.
02:35:07.000
Sir, can I have permission to wear a shirt with no collar?
02:35:14.000
You're a bad undercover officer if you need a t-shirt to convince a fucking perp.
02:35:35.000
I had to pick one comic, so I went with Ralphie Mae.
02:36:01.000
Yeah, he had a pulmonary embolism, and there's part of me going, he's so many points on my death pool.
02:36:17.000
Who did you just mention that was on my death pool?
02:36:23.000
So I had one pick that was a wish list, which was...
02:36:37.000
When you're living as the law enforcement in a place that's known to have people sneaking in from a third world country, that's where things get crafty.
02:36:46.000
Things get real tricky when you're dealing with that sort of a situation.
02:36:49.000
You got a bunch of people sneaking into your state all the time.
02:36:52.000
I mean, it's probably a reason why he's more fucked up than anybody else.
02:37:01.000
But I mean, that attitude is acceptable somehow or another, more down there.
02:37:09.000
But it's easy to make an us-and-them situation out of that.
02:37:14.000
I mean, they want to stop Mexico from coming into Arizona.
02:37:17.000
And one of the reasons why Arizona is so, like, Republican and so, you know, so right-wing is because they're right next to fucking Mexico.
02:37:23.000
You know, I think that's the same way Texas is, you know, and the same way Southern California, San Diego is really conservative, too.
02:37:30.000
You actually, on a much smaller level, they fucking hate Canadians at the border, too.
02:37:41.000
Like, tipping is one of the most important things.
02:37:45.000
You know, I fucking work the UK all the time, and they're assholes.
02:37:51.000
Like, normally this comes with ketchup where I'm from, and I don't want to put you out, but can you get...
02:38:06.000
You just started getting some Tommy Lee Jones with the new lighting.
02:38:13.000
Well, at least you're going with good people, you know?
02:38:28.000
I gotta pee, so I'm trying to think of when to end this.
02:38:39.000
Should be the new Roseanne, but no one will notice.
02:38:46.000
I'm going to pee, and then we'll wrap this bitch up.
02:38:50.000
Let's do it like how we used to do it, right, Doug?
02:39:00.000
Like, he was really concerned about, like, people were like, you're a woman hater, and it drove him crazy, like, when people said that to him or something like that.
02:39:08.000
Yeah, yeah, no, he was, uh, I don't know if he still is like that, but, yeah.
02:39:13.000
I've seen him fucking just dress down a chick for no reason.
02:39:17.000
She's some dumb chick, but that's what comics thrive on, stupid.
02:39:31.000
My favorite part, though, earlier was when you called Joey Diaz on that change jar, and he was like, what's a change jar?
02:39:37.000
And I'm thinking, how do you not know what a change jar is?
02:39:42.000
He fucking stole my change jar, because everyone would come in and out, but only Joey was denying that he was doing drugs.
02:39:48.000
So anytime someone's denying what they're known for, defensively, yeah.
02:39:56.000
No one ever stole from you going, I'm coked out of my brain and then just stole your shit.
02:40:07.000
Just borrow your VCR. My girlfriend really is addicted to flash dance.
02:40:17.000
Because I know you do stand-up for like six months that you're on the road or something like that and then you take breaks or...
02:40:31.000
You got in trouble last time you were overseas, right?
02:40:33.000
Like, I remember seeing there was some, like you said, something...
02:40:37.000
It's so easy to fucking stir up fake fucking...
02:40:49.000
Or, like, some DJ? Oh, a DJ. It was censored or something because he just mentioned a YouTube clip of mine...
02:41:00.000
I was doing the BBC and some fucking poor bastard afternoon, like BBC snotty radio.
02:41:07.000
They treat their radio like fucking Winston Churchill still fucking talking on it.
02:41:11.000
And this guy is like, I did a perfectly straight interview.
02:41:15.000
Yeah, we're performing here for however long and blah, blah, blah.
02:41:26.000
So he just mentions, if you don't believe, it's not for everybody.
02:41:30.000
If you don't believe it, see his YouTube clip about Sarah Palin and you'll know not to.
02:41:47.000
It's fucking railing on Sarah Palin having a retard baby and how she didn't use it in the debates.
02:41:54.000
I went back because the fucking guy was almost fired from BBC from mentioning that YouTube clip.
02:42:03.000
He was being insensitive to fucking retards or whatever they call them over there.
02:42:18.000
One had Down syndrome and the other was elected to go to Iraq or something like that.
02:42:27.000
I never watched a fucking clip until it came up when he said it.
02:42:31.000
And I watched a clip and I go, fuck, that was a funny bit.
02:42:39.000
When you write, do you just think of ideas and remember them?
02:42:45.000
Because you're constantly coming up with new shit.
02:42:48.000
My fucking attention span and my memory is such shit now.
02:42:54.000
I'll write it on my hand until I get to a notebook.
02:43:00.000
If you have one of those droid phones, you can actually talk to it.
02:43:05.000
And then your bits will be in Google's offices.
02:43:09.000
I'm in first class and I pull out my old fucking dog-eared notebook to take notes and I go to the first class.
02:43:31.000
I wonder what the fuck's going to happen to cursive.
02:43:38.000
Writing itself, when I have to write anything, when I have to send something and fill out an actual piece of paper, I'm like, wow, this is an alien thing.
02:43:48.000
My fucking accountant, Harvey Altman, mentioned him fucking seven hours ago.
02:43:53.000
Yeah, can you just take that out of my account or something?
02:43:59.000
He's one of the fucking guys I have to sit and write a check to, which is so foreign.
02:44:04.000
He doesn't want the ability to just take money out of your account.
02:44:12.000
Well, that leads us to our next episode about Fear Factor 2. That's right.
02:44:20.000
What do you think about this whole Bitcoin thing?
02:44:46.000
Because the bitcoins is like the first attempt I've ever heard of anybody coming up with some sort of currency.
02:44:53.000
Remember what Napster was like when it first came out?
02:44:57.000
And look what Napster became all these years later.
02:45:09.000
It records the song real quick for like 15 seconds.
02:45:20.000
I mean, there's never been anything even remotely like that before.
02:45:37.000
Once you find yourself railing against what's new is when you're old.
02:45:48.000
If I have a need to do all that thing with a fucking cell phone, I don't...
02:45:57.000
I've had a really good life, and I have no problems.
02:46:02.000
I live in a place I don't need to map quest anything.
02:46:16.000
That was kind of the whole point of the DMT trip, which is unexplainable with you.
02:46:33.000
Fucking Louis C.K. said, oh yeah, I think he's something I read about myself after the...
02:46:41.000
That was really weird to watch because I know you, but it was awesome.
02:46:48.000
I almost felt like I paused to shill for applause and they gave it to me.
02:46:57.000
You're Louis C.K.? We're talking about having joy, taking joy.
02:47:17.000
No, I'm always relieved that I didn't have a shitty set at best.
02:47:27.000
Right, but I'm saying, is this something that's changed in life, just the way you view things?
02:47:30.000
Yeah, but I can't pinpoint it, because I'm a logical person.
02:47:39.000
That's why I'm not listening to your boring fucking bar conversation, because in my head, yeah, I'm boiling something down to a point.
02:47:47.000
In your head, you're working in the background.
02:47:52.000
I know it was somewhere around the breakup with my wife, but not connected.
02:48:01.000
Well, it also could be the fact that you're drinking a lot of alcohol on a regular basis.
02:48:05.000
And that just really is going to depress you to a certain extent.
02:48:08.000
It's not eliminated from the fucking list of suspects.
02:48:12.000
I'm really kind of tweaking about this coffee thing.
02:48:15.000
It's very shocking to me how much different I feel from not doing coffee for eight days.
02:48:19.000
You know, I really didn't think it was going to be that big of a deal.
02:48:22.000
But the big deal is that I'm not tired anymore.
02:48:28.000
You know, late afternoon or something, and then I'd just have to...
02:48:31.000
Force myself to go to the gym so I'd have another cup of coffee and then I'd fire up and I'd go work out.
02:48:40.000
And I was like, oh, this is what you're supposed to be like.
02:48:44.000
You're not supposed to be just fucking spiking every, you know, fucking hour and a half with some dark liquid that fires up your fucking adrenal glands.
02:48:59.000
I'm gonna get you on fucking kale shakes and squats.
02:49:02.000
I love bingo to death, but do you think maybe it's something to do with relationship-wise?
02:49:14.000
This has been since I've been a fucking adult in any relationship.
02:49:18.000
The more you like them as a person, the less I want to fuck them.
02:49:24.000
Yeah, but do you think that's maybe your overall full entire?
02:49:33.000
If you say it with confidence, it doesn't mean you're selling it.
02:49:37.000
Maybe you're not hanging out with a positive crowd.
02:49:38.000
You need to move to L.A. You might not have to move back here.
02:49:48.000
Listen, all you have to do is come back here and we could do this.
02:50:28.000
Speaking of dogs, the fucking Tucson, please help me fucking sell its Rialto.
02:50:55.000
And, of course, a beautiful, fantastic guest set from Miss Lynn Shawcroft.
02:51:02.000
So that's a fucking hell of a show, ladies and gentlemen.
02:51:13.000
I seemed interested, but then I couldn't figure it out.
02:51:15.000
Tucson, Arizona, the Rialto Theater, Doug Benson, and Posse, and crew.
02:51:22.000
You need to surround yourself with more positive people.
02:51:24.000
It's hurting me, hanging out with you here, hearing you all bummed out.
02:51:42.000
I'm so fucking hyper aware of everything other than...
02:51:44.000
Tripping is never good for fucking entertainment.
02:51:57.000
They get to see you, you know, who you really are, man.
02:52:00.000
They get to see all of us who we really are in all sorts of different situations with tripping, sober, drunk.
02:52:05.000
I've gotten more feedback about the first one where I go, that had to be boring to everyone.
02:52:09.000
It was just me talking to you about old days and shit.
02:52:19.000
It's like a tendency in your thinking to go negative.
02:52:23.000
Unfortunately, it fucking sets little triggers in your brain, and it sort of defines your outlook on things when you do that.
02:52:29.000
And you can fuck yourself into a bad state of mind.
02:52:32.000
We can forgive Fear Factor 2, but if you start going motivational speaker...
02:52:37.000
I'm going to get one of those Bobby Brown headsets, and I'm going to go out there, and I'm going to show other people...
02:52:42.000
Negative vibes create negative atoms in your fucking DNA. You make negative children.
02:52:58.000
B! We could go off forever about motivational speakers, but the last thing I want to talk to you about is comedy classes, because I thought this was really funny.
02:53:23.000
I don't have to be high to be hyper aware of how pointless comedy is and the fucking scam that we get away with doing this for a living.
02:53:32.000
You say that and I agree in a certain way, but in another way I don't agree because I was always happy to pay for it and I enjoy it still as an art form.
02:53:41.000
I think it's the most fun form of entertainment.
02:53:46.000
You know, I think for some of us we might have forgotten how much we appreciated it in the beginning.
02:53:53.000
You know, forgotten that it's still the same thing.
02:54:01.000
Once I knew the Hollywood blowjob was all a fallacy, I don't want to do anything more.
02:54:07.000
It's like Hedberg's joke about, oh, you're a comic, can you write?
02:54:28.000
Thank you for letting me fucking embarrass Mitch Hedberg's fucking grave.
02:54:40.000
I've only had three drinks, by the way, in fucking three hours.
02:54:54.000
Do you know how many times I've played the Bray Improv?
02:54:59.000
So, if it goes poorly, I'm not worried about my career.
02:55:10.000
If you go in with that attitude of, it doesn't fucking matter, you're usually funnier.
02:55:18.000
I'm just going to sit and be creepy in the back.
02:55:20.000
And if you're doing something I don't like, I'm just going to shake my head.
02:55:22.000
I'm going to put myself in a really obvious position.
02:55:25.000
Last night, I go, yeah, Rogan said he's coming, but there's no way he's coming.
02:55:36.000
Well, we already worked it out that I was coming tonight.
02:55:39.000
Well, no, you said, oh, I'm going to come to both, and I know you're not going to come to both.
02:55:49.000
Why would I? That would be even creepier if I had to sit and watch the same show twice.
02:56:01.000
No dead fucking Patrice O'Neal wrapped up in a Greg Giraldo with a Freddy Soto on top.
02:56:09.000
There's no comedy worth driving to Irvine from L.A. That's not true.
02:56:17.000
If you didn't do the podcast and you were only doing Irvine, I would have gone to see you there.
02:56:22.000
Because Brea, to me, is almost as far as Irvine.
02:56:26.000
If you drive to fucking Irvine, they make traffic move.
02:56:42.000
I think we can con my record company into getting a driver.
02:56:50.000
I'll have him pick you up at 1.30, good for you.
02:56:55.000
No, but the fact that you have a bell that you ring out on your porch to summon the person, that's...
02:57:03.000
But no, you're not someone I feel uncomfortable around.
02:57:06.000
Like, you and Ron White were the two guys that I... Alright, no matter how, you're still you.
02:57:17.000
You know, for a lot of people, you know what it is, man?
02:57:19.000
They get something and then they don't want to lose it.
02:57:21.000
And then they get scared and then they clam up.
02:57:23.000
And then they stop doing anything controversial.
02:57:33.000
I don't like to ever judge anybody or look at them all in categories.
02:57:39.000
Attell, I would say, is the fucking pound for pound, as they say in your industry.
02:57:47.000
I don't know if I can agree with that, because, you know, quite honestly, I shift back and forth on a bunch of different guys.
02:57:53.000
I go back and forth, but I stop trying to put him in an order.
02:57:57.000
Hedberg's a specific guy, but joke for joke, no one has more fucking jokes and personality than a tell.
02:58:10.000
I just think he's amazing, but I don't put him all in an order.
02:58:14.000
I've decided somewhere along the line just to appreciate him.
02:58:19.000
There's a Hunter S. Thompson part of it where you go, would you want to be that miserable of a fucking person?
02:58:26.000
You think he's more miserable than you by how much?
02:58:29.000
Oh, yeah, no, he's really, like, he makes me, like, I go, just, let's go to Costa Rica together.
02:58:37.000
Well, I've got this pilot, and it's not, it's no good, and I'm, like, he had a DVD, like, for three years he's been editing, but he hates every word of it.
02:58:49.000
You write more fucking jokes in a conversation while I'm drunk than I write in a fucking notebook in a year.
02:58:57.000
Well, what he is is a real fucking professional.
02:59:02.000
Do you want to be that fucking miserable of a person to put out that good of art?
02:59:14.000
I think you could just enjoy the whole process.
02:59:17.000
Hey, faggot that's about to email and say, this thing went on too long.
02:59:25.000
We've got to end it because we're running out of space on the...
02:59:36.000
Send our love to The Fleshlight for sponsoring this podcast.
02:59:39.000
Go to JoeRogan.net, click on the link for The Fleshlight, and enter in the code name ROGAN, and you get 15% off, and you will use the same masturbation device that me and Brian do.
02:59:51.000
I'd have used it too, but last time I did your fucking podcast, you kind of flashed it around like it was swag, and you didn't give it to me.
03:00:02.000
I still have your fucking Nike sneakers I stole from you on The Man Show.
03:00:23.000
We live in a town where mail still means something.
03:00:34.000
Check out the Alpha Brain Balance Nootropic Supplement.
03:00:37.000
Check out New Mood, the 5-HTP, an L-Tryptophan supplement, and Shroom Tech, the Cordyceps Mushroom Energy Supplement, which is fantastic for working out.
03:01:07.000
We're going to talk to this motherfucker about the craziest shit on Earth.
03:01:18.000
He just got back from India where he hadn't seen a toilet in a month.
03:01:21.000
That would be the number one guy of why doesn't everyone know this fucking guy.
03:01:30.000
And he's going to be here next Tuesday, you fucking freaks.
