Summary
This week, the guys talk about the latest on the flu, the UFC, and the economy. Also, we talk about how much better the flu is than we thought it was going to be, and whether or not we should all wear masks to fight the flu. Also, a new drug is being developed that could make the death rate 10-50 times less than it was supposed to be and could be a huge game changer in the fight game, and we discuss why we should wear masks at all times during the flu season. We also talk about why the flu should be considered a disease, and why it should be treated the same way as a heart attack or heart disease. We also discuss the new drug, Remedysivir, and how it could change the way we think about how we treat the flu in the future. Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for the next episode.

Transcript
00:00:08.000
Here we are, Thursday, we got Friday, and then Saturday's fights, and I gotta go.
00:00:14.000
I'm gonna be doing commentary in an empty arena.
00:00:18.000
Everybody has to be really far away from each other.
00:00:21.000
We're gonna be on separate corners of the octagon, which fucking sucks.
00:00:26.000
Because when things go crazy, DC and I always grab each other.
00:00:40.000
Well, not only are we all healthy and fine, we're tested.
00:00:52.000
And then two days before that, I took an antibody test.
00:01:01.000
The state just has real rigid guidelines, apparently.
00:01:03.000
They just want to make sure that everybody's safe.
00:01:09.000
Do you know what Cam would do to COVID? It doesn't have a chance.
00:01:18.000
Listen, I had Elon on the podcast yesterday, and we talked about what the actual death rate is versus what everyone thought it was going to be.
00:01:28.000
He said it's a magnitude of 10 to 50 times less deadly than they thought it was going to be.
00:01:38.000
Especially when they start getting to things like...
00:01:41.000
There's a prison where they tested these prisoners and 98% of them had it and...
00:01:59.000
He said yesterday, if you got bit by a shark and died and you had COVID, they would count it as a COVID death.
00:02:14.000
Did we find out whether or not that's true about the heart attacks, the heart disease?
00:02:17.000
Because someone else brought it up to me today.
00:02:19.000
Someone else who's a pretty smart person in New York.
00:02:36.000
Isn't it weird that the death rate went down once the flu season's over?
00:02:45.000
If you have flu and COVID, they count it as COVID. Yeah.
00:02:48.000
And then the flu, you know, look, COVID's not good, but it's not what we were worried about.
00:02:59.000
I think shutting it down for a couple weeks is not a bad idea to get a sense of it, but once the numbers are back, I mean, I think right now it needs to restart.
00:03:07.000
They need to follow social distancing guidelines, wear masks if possible, especially until we get it all wrapped up and figure out what it is in terms of what the treatment...
00:03:21.000
Remdesivir, this new antiviral treatment that they say is...
00:03:27.000
I think you have underlying health conditions and you're over 60, put on a mask.
00:03:31.000
If you don't, it should be up to me if I want to wear it.
00:03:33.000
Did you know that the average age of COVID death users or people who get COVID and die is higher than the average age of death?
00:03:52.000
And there's this weird, like, toxic culture who wants it to be bad.
00:03:57.000
So when Elon spits these facts, I'm sure your podcast comes out, people are like, no, and they start throwing other facts.
00:04:04.000
It's tough to argue with these hard, cold facts, man.
00:04:21.000
Yeah, it's not what we thought it was going to be.
00:04:26.000
Everybody was like, holy shit, the plague's coming.
00:04:39.000
Everything's bad for old people and obese people, though.
00:04:51.000
Bro, how many fucking rattlesnakes are in your neighborhood?
00:04:54.000
Every day you're sending me a video of a new rattlesnake.
00:04:58.000
And that's like that dirt Mulholland Road and the Topanga Canyon.
00:05:09.000
And now I'm just, I don't know, accustomed to it.
00:05:12.000
I used to be so scared to buy it in the morning.
00:05:16.000
But now, it's like they're not going to bother me.
00:05:18.000
I mean, if I step on one, it's going to be trouble.
00:05:21.000
But I'd still rather get COVID than get bit by a rattlesnake.
00:05:30.000
That Mike Posner guy, he got bit by a rattlesnake.
00:06:01.000
So like if they kill a rabbit with their venom, it actually helps digest the rabbit.
00:06:07.000
So when people get bit by it, it makes your skin rot.
00:06:11.000
So if it was going to swallow you, it allows it to digest you easier.
00:06:25.000
I watched this horrible fucking website where they had a series of photographs of this guy that got bit on the arm and they had to med vac him out of there and they had to do a bunch of procedures and skin grafts and all kinds of shit and his arm was fucked up.
00:06:40.000
Did you watch that thing I sent you about Alex Smith, that quarterback?
00:06:48.000
He got some flesh-eating bacteria in his leg, a compound fracture when he was playing for the Redskins.
00:06:53.000
He had to take muscle from his left leg and put it in the right leg.
00:07:01.000
He's going to try to plague him, but I mean, I don't know if that's going to happen.
00:07:05.000
It was so bad where they're like, you're not going to have motion in your foot.
00:07:09.000
And when we see these kind of injuries, it's usually soldiers from stepping on IEDs or whatever.
00:07:16.000
So most of the time they just amputate it because your leg's never going to be the same.
00:07:19.000
Otherwise, you're looking at an 18-month, you know, you're in this cast with braces and screws into the muscle and the bone.
00:07:26.000
And even after that, you're probably not going to have motion in your foot.
00:07:29.000
Give me that fucking cool RoboCop carbon fiber one.
00:07:36.000
But the thing is, they're changing, like every year, they're changing what they can and can't do in terms of like biologicals, like stem cells and different treatments they come up with.
00:07:47.000
You know, they can fix ACLs now without using anything other than your ACL. Oh, damn.
00:07:53.000
Yeah, Dr. Roddy McGee was showing me these videos of this guy who they did it to and then he went into the Olympics four months after surgery.
00:08:06.000
Yeah, well, it used to be they had to replace it either with a patella tendon graft, hamstring graft, or a cadaver.
00:08:12.000
I've had a patella tendon graft on the left and a cadaver on my right.
00:08:15.000
But this thing, now they're taking the actual ACL that exists and they have some new way of suturing it and they squirt some stem cells up in there and it heals up.
00:08:28.000
So my thought is that they're always coming up with new ways to fix things.
00:08:37.000
No, my thing is, is robotics are coming along too, so you might become some badass with this robot leg.
00:08:43.000
My worry is one day, artificial leg's going to be so good, people are going to get their good legs removed so they can get an artificial leg.
00:09:00.000
Except it's going to be way more than six million bucks.
00:09:05.000
That's what's going to happen in the future, probably.
00:09:09.000
If you're listening to this, don't get your leg off.
00:09:11.000
Have you watched the Countdown show for this weekend's event?
00:09:21.000
Well, Dana posted it, and someone sent it to me.
00:09:27.000
Dana has me blocked, so I can't click on his profile and see it.
00:09:38.000
Probably when we got into that whole scuffle on Instagram.
00:09:57.000
But it's so strange, like, when you look at a list of people, like, who's a bigger advocate for the UFC? Nobody.
00:10:10.000
Well, you know, some people, they fucking dig their heels in.
00:10:17.000
Oh, is this the thing that talks about, I did see this.
00:10:28.000
It makes me so proud to be part of the UFC. The Countdown show is so good, man.
00:10:38.000
He goes, I hope he breaks my nose so I can get it fixed.
00:10:57.000
I'm a fan of his personality, his mindset, the way he approaches fights.
00:11:07.000
I think this is actually a tougher fight for Tony Ferguson than the Khabib fight.
00:11:13.000
If you're locked in the cage with Justin Gaethje, it is war.
00:11:18.000
It's like Tony Ferguson was getting ready to go deep scuba diving, deep sea scuba diving, and we know you can go in the deep waters, but we know what to expect.
00:11:26.000
It's going to be a bitch, dude, but you know what to expect.
00:11:29.000
With Gaethje, it's like, you're not scuba diving anymore.
00:11:31.000
You're snorkeling, and you're in hurricane waters, and you gotta get past the initial part, and it's a motherfucker.
00:11:41.000
Yeah, he's a different kind of guy because he's so reckless.
00:11:51.000
And the other thing is, you know, Tony gets hit.
00:12:00.000
The Venata fight is a really good example of that.
00:12:03.000
But I think the Lando-Venata fight, first of all, he took it on short notice.
00:12:29.000
If he gets you hurt, he'll throw himself right into the fire.
00:12:36.000
People say that sometimes, but I don't think they really mean it.
00:12:48.000
That's why I think I love Khabib and I want Khabib Tony, but this fight to me is more entertaining.
00:12:59.000
No, I think Gaethje's more entertaining than anybody.
00:13:04.000
And then Tony's more entertaining than anybody too.
00:13:07.000
Everybody who fights Tony looks like they fell off a train.
00:13:17.000
There's a photograph that shows the list of the last nine or ten people that Tony's fought.
00:13:38.000
That's why you got to get past that first initial wave of Justin Gaethje.
00:13:50.000
Because they're both such phenomenal wrestlers.
00:13:59.000
I go back and forth on picking who's going to win the fight.
00:14:02.000
As far as if you want to make money, Gaethje's a good dog, but it'd be impossible to pick against Tony Ferguson if that lost in eight years.
00:14:09.000
The other thing is Gaethje comes in, and he comes in with his head lower.
00:14:13.000
Well, that's Snap City for Tony Ferguson with his Darces, his Anacondas.
00:14:18.000
And the other thing is we don't really know what kind of jiu-jitsu or jiu-jitsu defense Gaethje has.
00:14:25.000
He hasn't been in a scramble with a real high-level guy.
00:14:29.000
And I think that Tony is one of the trickiest submission artists in the sport.
00:14:38.000
He tapped Kevin Lee off his back with a triangle.
00:14:43.000
See, I wouldn't be surprised if Tony at one point starts diving for those ankles.
00:14:47.000
Because if you're not subversed in jiu-jitsu, that's where it gets dicey for guys.
00:14:52.000
You know how it is when a guy comes in and he doesn't know leg locks.
00:15:12.000
And it's almost like he moves almost like he's breakdancing in there.
00:15:16.000
Like, he's fucking stepping side to side, left, right.
00:15:30.000
To me, this is one of the biggest UFC fights of all time.
00:15:35.000
It is one of the most stacked cards in the history of the sport.
00:15:38.000
Since UFC 100. From top to bottom, UFC 100. There's so many great fights that people are forgetting.
00:15:55.000
And everybody's forgetting, it's so good, people forgot Jeremy Stevens versus Calvin Cater!
00:16:01.000
Look, I really believe Calvin Cater is the dark horse in that division.
00:16:14.000
Well, if you look at the Zabit fight, he was fucking Zabit up in that third round.
00:16:33.000
Hey, you know what I picture is Olenek's team going, dude, you got to fight.
00:17:07.000
Oh my god, Ryan Spann, Sam Alvior, right from the fucking jump, it's awesome.
00:17:18.000
Well, when you're trying to jam, you know, all this goodness into one event because you've had this fucked up situation happen where, how many cards have been canceled?
00:17:31.000
The last fight was in Brazil, and was that January?
00:17:36.000
It was right after the UFC event that I did, which was the 7th.
00:17:51.000
And that was the one where Gilbert knocked out Damian Maia.
00:18:01.000
That means, you know, I love Gilbert, but for Woodley to take that fight, you know, he usually picks and chooses who he wants to fight, so...
00:18:11.000
I gotta talk to Dana this weekend, and he probably...
00:18:29.000
Because he said, we have a bigger fight for Masvidal.
00:18:32.000
Because they said Kamaru versus Masvidal for the belt, right?
00:18:37.000
I'm like, well, there's only two guys who'd be bigger.
00:18:40.000
GSP. Nah, I'd love if GSP, but I don't think so.
00:18:56.000
Conor, Masvidal is the fight, but then I wasn't even thinking of GSP. How about GSP Conor?
00:19:17.000
I might have to take a trip to wherever the fuck it is.
00:19:29.000
You know the Virgin Records or whatever the fuck?
00:19:49.000
But in my brain, I'm thinking, who's out there who could be bigger than Kamaru Usman, Masvidal?
00:19:56.000
Well, Nick would work because Masvidal beat up his brother.
00:20:03.000
But it's always tough with the negotiations with the Diazes.
00:20:07.000
Because Nick hasn't fought since Anderson Silva.
00:20:13.000
When Masvidal was on Food Truck Diaries, Off camera, him and his manager were like, dude, it's Conor Masvidal.
00:20:35.000
Yeah, I had him on literally like a week after that, and he was like, oh, Conor's the fight.
00:20:38.000
They're telling us he wants the fight, we want the fight.
00:20:57.000
I mean, he fought 55 for a long time, but it wasn't his weight class.
00:21:16.000
As much as I love Masvidal, Conor's still the top dog in town.
00:21:21.000
So you've got to meet him a little bit halfway.
00:21:23.000
He's the top dog in town, but I'm telling you, man, when you go to the UFC and you see the pop that Masvidal gets, there's this change in the public perception.
00:21:40.000
Conor's eclipsed the sport, but Masvidal is one of the biggest stars in the sport.
00:21:51.000
Conor said he wants to fight three times this year, but that's not happening, so they're going to give him some big fights.
00:22:31.000
And as far as how good he is versus public perception in terms of the knowledge of him, people knowing how good he is, he's waiting for that one fight, that one big fight, and Woodley could have been that fight.
00:22:50.000
That's all Leon Edwards needs, like a Woodley and then another, like a Colby or something like that.
00:22:55.000
Well, if he beat Colby, that would be it for him.
00:23:00.000
Colby versus Leon Edwards is a really great fight to make.
00:23:04.000
And both guys, like, if both guys win, they've got a real argument to fight for the title again.
00:23:07.000
If Colby wins, he's going to talk mad shit, and he's going to, you know, where you at, Marty?
00:23:15.000
Leon Edwards will fight next on Fight Island against high-ranked opponents, says Dana White.
00:23:34.000
So you got Gilbert, who's going to fight Woodley, which is a great fight.
00:23:44.000
Who else is in the mix at the top of the food chain?
00:23:56.000
Okay, let's see what we got here at 170. Masvidal, Damian Maia, Michael Chiesa.
00:24:07.000
It's so crazy to think that guy's fought 55 for so long.
00:24:19.000
He's one of the most technical and talented guys in the division.
00:24:23.000
When he fought Mike Perry and knocked out Mike Perry with that left high kick, I was like, holy shit.
00:24:32.000
Jeff Neal, he's one of those guys where you look at him like he's something special.
00:24:59.000
I mean, it really seems like Leon and Stephen Thompson is the way to go.
00:25:03.000
Wonder Boy and Leon seems like it has to happen, right?
00:25:07.000
I mean, that's probably what they're going to do on Fight Island, if I had a guess.
00:25:19.000
Because after Colby, Colby just kind of ran him over, didn't he?
00:25:24.000
Robbie versus Jeff Neal would be a crazy fight.
00:25:43.000
He's shredded at 55. And if you think 45's easier than 55, we got another thing for you, brother.
00:26:09.000
He's fighting someone very good at 45. See if we can find him.
00:26:22.000
There's a real good argument for opening up these divisions and having one every 10 pounds now when you've got world championship caliber fighters.
00:26:30.000
Now, I've never been in favor of opening up divisions, but now it's so stacked to get to the top, it'd be so fucking hard.
00:26:37.000
It's like everybody is not going to get a chance.
00:26:40.000
Because you have so many guys in a division that are world class.
00:26:44.000
The title can't be defended that many times in a year, and you only have so many years at your peak.
00:27:04.000
I want to have the most delicious beverage of all time.
00:27:09.000
Grape, Kill Cliff, CBD. Is there caffeine in it?
00:27:28.000
Like, Darren Till just said that he wants to...
00:27:32.000
They said Darren Till wants to coach Ultimate Fighter opposite Israel Adesanya.
00:27:37.000
So he put that up on Twitter or Instagram, whatever the fuck it is.
00:28:22.000
Yeah, I don't know the odds on that, but that ain't fun for Barboza.
00:28:33.000
He would have went earlier if he knew something.
00:28:34.000
Angela Hill and Claudia Gedalia is a great fucking fight, too.
00:28:43.000
Dude, what do you do with the winner of Francis Rosenstruck?
00:28:52.000
He goes, I can't even get a hold of an octagon right now.
00:28:56.000
I can't even get a full training camp, so I'm not fighting.
00:29:02.000
Well, I don't understand that necessarily, that argument, but I do know that he's got real problems with his eye.
00:29:11.000
It's a torn retina and, you know, it's supposed to be healing and he's doing his best to heal and I'd actually, you know, talked to him about it and he's been pretty vocal about that it's not healed yet.
00:29:24.000
Yeah, he was talking about seeing if there's some stem cell options, but the people that he talked to were essentially saying that the only thing that's available is intravenous stem cell for overall body healing, which you could do for sure, and it would probably accelerate some of the healing, but it's a real problem.
00:29:45.000
He should talk to Bisping, because I wonder if Bisping would go through the...
00:29:48.000
I know Bisping said he wished he didn't take the Kelvin fight, I think.
00:29:55.000
If you're going to talk to anyone about eyes, it'd be Bisping, man.
00:29:58.000
But with Stipe, all right, so you're on the shelf.
00:30:00.000
You've got to give the intern belt to Francis and Rosenstruck.
00:30:07.000
And then if you're DC, he wants the belt, the real belt, so he's not going to fight the winner of Francis.
00:30:16.000
Dude, have you seen Francis with his shirt off?
00:30:24.000
Look, man, that guy is like a character in a movie.
00:30:28.000
If you stop and think about his childhood, learning how to fight, and then growing up in a fucking, like working in a sand mine.
00:30:46.000
You're talking about a guy who's cutting weight to make 265. And all natural.
00:30:57.000
But I'll tell you, man, Rosenstreich is no walk in the park.
00:31:13.000
He's got some body fat on him, but he's a solid 265. Rosenstreich is huge, bro.
00:31:26.000
He doesn't have the same amount of low body fat or lean musculature, but he has great stamina.
00:31:33.000
I mean, he knocked out Overeem in the fifth round with a few seconds to go.
00:31:42.000
Now, the difference between the way Overeem fought him and the way Overeem fought Francis, Overeem got stuck in these exchanges with Francis, and Francis hit him with that left hook, which is just...
00:31:55.000
It's one of the worst knockouts in the history of sport.
00:32:31.000
I think that part of what happened in the second fight, or the first fight rather, with DC was the damage that Stipe had incurred in the fight with Francis.
00:32:42.000
That's fair because he took some big shots, man.
00:32:46.000
And when he got hit and knocked out like that, it wasn't the biggest shot he got hit with.
00:32:50.000
I don't think he saw it coming, but the way he went out from that shot, it's almost like...
00:32:56.000
You gotta wonder how much of that was residual damage from battling the scariest fucking striker in the sport.
00:33:06.000
I think, you know, he got humbled a little bit in that Stipe fight.
00:33:14.000
You look at him now, you're like, holy shit, who's going to beat this guy?
00:33:18.000
He's champ by 2021. Well, I'm telling you, he's still got to get past Rosenstreich.
00:33:41.000
If you like the bet, you can put together a parlay, and you risk like 100, and you can win 15,000.
00:33:46.000
It's like some crazy parlay, but you look at it like, I can see that shit happening, man.
00:33:51.000
And also, who knows what kind of fight camps these guys are getting, right?
00:33:59.000
The only one I'm not worried about is Tony Ferguson.
00:34:12.000
If you're one of those big names, I guarantee those guys are getting keys to the gym and going in and doing their thing.
00:34:16.000
But even if you get a key to the gym, are you allowed to do that?
00:34:21.000
But this is one of the things that's been weird.
00:34:42.000
I'm riding my bike like I do every day, avoiding rattlesnakes, and I get on the descent.
00:34:50.000
I'm in the middle of nowhere in between there, and then I see two Ranger trucks intercept me, and they get out and they have masks on, and I start laughing.
00:34:59.000
I go, you think we're going to get COVID out here?
00:35:07.000
They take the mask off and I go, are you giving me a ticket?
00:35:10.000
And he goes, listen, here's the problem, dude, is the parks are closed.
00:35:23.000
I've been out here every single day for the past 50 days.
00:35:30.000
And he's like, well, you know, he just got lucky.
00:35:32.000
And he goes, here's the problem is, if a thousand people had your same mindset and came out here, then we'd have a problem.
00:35:42.000
He goes, I'm actually part of the Thick Boy Bike Club.
00:35:54.000
You got to be in pretty good fucking shape to get all the way out here, man, and back.
00:35:57.000
You think those people are worried about getting COVID or spreading it?
00:36:09.000
And this other guy gets out and gives me a ticket.
00:36:24.000
Now they're going to make an example out of you.
00:36:32.000
No, yeah, but you're supposed to wear a mask while you're...
00:36:38.000
Dude, I saw a guy on his bike today out there with me on the trails.
00:37:10.000
Whitney told me she crashed and got really fucked up and no one came to help her.
00:37:18.000
Nobody wanted to help her and everyone's wearing a mask.
00:37:20.000
People yelled at her for not wearing a mask too.
00:37:34.000
I was even talking shit about Governor Newsom to them.
00:37:44.000
What would it be like if a thousand people did it?
00:37:45.000
First of all, a thousand people aren't going to fucking do it.
00:37:55.000
I go, if they're getting out here, then fucking shape.
00:37:57.000
Even if we all got COVID, we're all going to be fine.
00:38:02.000
The problem is once the narrative gets established, you know?
00:38:08.000
It's crazy to me the news isn't held accountable for anything.
00:38:12.000
You're like, why aren't you showing anything positive?
00:38:17.000
I'm like, why don't you guys show anything positive?
00:38:28.000
And then China said they're starting to get over COVID. Release the fucking warrior hornets where the fuck they are.
00:38:38.000
That's what I thought this was when I walked in, dude.
00:38:42.000
I think those Asian hornets are actually bigger than that.
00:38:47.000
Well, if they're in Washington, I bet their fucking thick asses are going to head to California.
00:38:59.000
And I look on the video, they're intercepting bees and ripping their fucking heads off, dude.
00:39:04.000
They snip their heads in half with their mandibles.
00:39:15.000
These bee colonies, they show up at the hives and just burn through the hives.
00:39:20.000
There's a horrendous video of these Asian hornets that show up at this beehive and just start chopping them in half.
00:39:27.000
Have you seen that video where that Coyote Peterson guy lets one sting him?
00:39:45.000
Well, and then 20 minutes later, his arm had swole up like someone had shoved a shoe under his skin.
00:40:02.000
I think it's on History Channel, but it's these two dudes, one Australian dude, one regular American dude who's a Marine.
00:40:07.000
And they're like, the pain scale hasn't been done since like the 1970s.
00:40:13.000
We give it a 1 through 30. We rank them on these, you know, criterias.
00:40:27.000
And then the finale, I'm like, well, what are they going to do here?
00:40:32.000
Bow constrictor in the forest, and then they put masks on so it can't bite their neck and kill them, and then they give the thing their arm?
00:41:03.000
It was a Komodo dragon or something and it didn't get off like 10 minutes.
00:41:13.000
They're like, let's spray the soap in its mouth.
00:41:33.000
You put a bullet in that fucking thing's brain.
00:41:48.000
Well, why don't they put a wedge in its mouth like you do with a pit bull?
00:41:57.000
My thing is, I want to see how much they got paid to do this.
00:42:06.000
The other guy's just like, you know, the crocodile hunter.
00:42:15.000
This is like what Lil Duval calls white boy in.
00:42:19.000
Hey, and this white boy can't get enough of it, dude.
00:42:21.000
I've been watched all ten episodes in like an hour.
00:42:37.000
I was telling you this off here, that the guy DM'd me, because I keep giving the show praise, and he's like, dude, for season number two, we're thinking of having celebrities on, man.
00:43:07.000
I think Cam Haynes posted a video of him grabbing...
00:43:09.000
I don't think it was a rattlesnake, but he came across a snake and he's like, you gotta save these things.
00:43:13.000
So everyone's like, Shob, you gotta start doing this, man, when you run the snakes.
00:43:17.000
And even before I saw Cam do that, I've had this weird urge to grab the snakes.
00:43:25.000
To just grab the snake and like, I don't know, fuck with it, like hold it.
00:43:28.000
Do you bring anything with you, like a stick or anything?
00:43:33.000
Because the problem is, if I take my specialized stump jumper, it makes noise.
00:43:40.000
If I take this e-bike, this YT industry e-bike, it's silent.
00:43:45.000
So today I stumped on three coyotes, pretty big.
00:44:01.000
They're like, I wish you were smaller so I could eat you.
00:44:07.000
But I was thinking, that's why I texted you when I got done today.
00:44:16.000
With a rattlesnake, I don't know what the fuck you need.
00:44:20.000
Well, with a rattlesnake, most of the time, you just got to get out of the way of them.
00:44:27.000
See, and where I went today, there's pictures of mountain lions.
00:44:47.000
And they just hang on the tree and stare at me.
00:44:54.000
Because when I saw it, I'm like, well, here's your chance.
00:45:01.000
And plus, who knows what kind of fucked up diseases they have inside their mouth.
00:45:05.000
But even a house cat, like, I mean, you get fucked with a house, even those cats fuck you up.
00:45:10.000
A house cat that wants to kill you, that's a real problem.
00:45:21.000
A bobcat is literally like 20 times bigger than that.
00:45:25.000
I talk all this shit about nature until I run into it.
00:45:28.000
When I saw a bobcat, I was like, dude, talking all that shit.
00:45:33.000
It's not even 10 times bigger than a 5 pound rat, but rats don't really get to be 5 pounds.
00:45:54.000
Coyotes killed a girl in Canada a few years back, a 19-year-old lady.
00:45:59.000
She was a promising folk singer, and she was wandering around the woods, and the coyotes found her by herself, and they ate her.
00:46:07.000
That's a terrible way to die, too, a really bad way to die.
00:46:24.000
You nervous at all about going to the UFC this weekend?
00:46:29.000
I'm nervous about how weird people are going to be.
00:46:38.000
Yeah, I'm not worried about the actual disease.
00:46:46.000
Like, where I get my coffee at 10 speed, this guy, I'm not even trying to be funny, probably 400 pounds, 6 foot, just so out of shape.
00:46:56.000
I'm like, there's no line, there's no one in there.
00:47:01.000
That mask ain't gonna be the thing that gets you, dude.
00:47:07.000
Trust me, I'm probably gonna outlive you, my man.
00:47:33.000
I used to do this golf tournament there every year.
00:47:42.000
Well, they're the first people that say, fuck it, let's do it.
00:47:47.000
I think Florida's basically opened up for everything.
00:47:50.000
Most of it, I think, they didn't open up where Miami and Palm Beach are.
00:48:04.000
Huntsville, Wise Guys, Salt Lake, Nashville, Spokane.
00:48:27.000
Wouldn't it be labeled a restaurant more than anything?
00:48:40.000
And just sitting people at tables and you have one guy, you know...
00:48:46.000
Because restaurants should open up in phase three?
00:48:50.000
Probably at a certain capacity, but yeah, they're opening up way before some other stuff.
00:48:54.000
These clubs I've been talking about, they're all not at full capacity.
00:48:59.000
So that's what's going to happen at these clubs?
00:49:08.000
They had an open mic night, and I think it was 150 people.
00:49:19.000
Park City, still not open, but Salt Lake City has some restaurants are open, but most of them are open just for takeout.
00:49:39.000
Customers will be asked to keep a minimum of six feet between groups.
00:49:42.000
And while waiting in line, all customers will be seated.
00:49:45.000
By the way, we're all touching the same shit, breathing the same air.
00:49:50.000
Dude, I'll do the meet and grin spoke and lick everybody's face.
00:49:53.000
Hand sanitizer stations are located at club entrances and at the front desk.
00:49:57.000
All high-touch surfaces, including but not limited to tables, chairs, menus, doorknobs, faucets, bathrooms, and more have been sanitized and will continue to be disinfected after every show.
00:50:11.000
I don't want to do a show with everybody wearing a mask.
00:50:24.000
Chappelle and I, we're supposed to be doing arenas in September.
00:50:42.000
Because you see the NFL, I think, released scheduled...
00:50:52.000
They haven't said anything about attendance, but as far as scheduling goes, everything's...
00:50:56.000
Now, what the fuck are they going to do here in LA? Because our governor...
00:51:05.000
Yeah, but you're getting where people aren't putting up with and he has to change, right?
00:51:18.000
I'm like, dude, I'm telling these people I ain't gonna put up with these beaches.
00:51:25.000
Saturday there's a big, big sort of demonstration that's planned, right?
00:51:38.000
Like, I had an argument with my dad about COVID, and he's like, I don't know why you're crying.
00:51:42.000
I was like, I know, but not quick enough, dude.
00:51:50.000
What they should do is quarantine the people that are at high risk at this point.
00:51:54.000
You don't have to quarantine the whole country anymore.
00:51:56.000
But when Newsom goes so far left and he's like, here we are, man, he can't dial it back.
00:52:01.000
He has to be forced to dial it back because otherwise he looks like an asshole.
00:52:07.000
Yeah, it's hard to change paths once you've already committed to a certain path.
00:52:17.000
Listen, the one positive of this quarantine is we've all kind of got to relax.
00:52:22.000
When you have stand-up, you have shows, you have all this thing going on, we're moving on a million times an hour.
00:52:27.000
I've got so much time with my kids, started a bike club.
00:52:38.000
I've just enjoyed going, and they forced me to shut everything down.
00:52:49.000
You know, I had Jessie Mae in here last week, and she was saying the same thing.
00:53:14.000
It's tough to feel creative during this lockdown, man.
00:53:22.000
I decided I'm just going to do podcasts and work out a lot.
00:53:30.000
You ever thought maybe this forced break is good for everybody, man?
00:53:38.000
But the other thing that I decided is I want to see how I feel about this organically.
00:53:44.000
Instead of trying to make comedy out of it right away, I just want to see what my real feelings are about this.
00:53:54.000
Once I've got a handle on how I feel about it, what my take is, then do some writing.
00:54:01.000
What's done for me is I feel great, I feel better, started a bike club, lost weight, but the other thing is I've paid more attention to politics because it's never really affected me.
00:54:14.000
But then when they lock down your lifestyle, it's like, all right, what are we doing here, man?
00:54:18.000
Then you're starting to look into things like, holy shit, dude.
00:54:21.000
We went over the list with Hinchcliffe yesterday.
00:54:23.000
We went over the list of all things the governor has approved for outdoor activities, and it's so condescending.
00:54:32.000
This is a long list of things you can and can't do.
00:54:39.000
It also shows you how little power governors have, too.
00:54:41.000
Yeah, well, also it shows you how they like that power.
00:54:46.000
Oh, you don't run for governor because you don't.
00:54:48.000
They're not saying, hey, keep six feet apart from each other and use social distancing guidelines and be safe.
00:55:08.000
Well, it's like people got upset because they posted that the city of Venice filled the skate park with sand because they wanted kids to stop skating.
00:55:20.000
I'm like, have you ever looked at the mortality rate of young kids?
00:55:27.000
Has anybody thought about mental health and going outside and what that does for those kids?
00:55:32.000
Well, they're worried that the kids are going to get it and they're going to give it to the grandma or dad or someone's going to get sick.
00:55:42.000
You can't tell people that you need to be smart in terms of infectious diseases.
00:55:49.000
Say this is what's probably best and then let the people of America decide.
00:55:57.000
You're going to allow people to make all these bad choices no matter what.
00:56:02.000
You're allowing people to take prescription medication.
00:56:06.000
They're killing themselves left and right doing all kinds of other different things.
00:56:21.000
Well, the thing is about most of the decisions, like for cigarette smoke and car accidents, stuff like that, like you decide, right?
00:56:28.000
You decide to drink, you decide to smoke, you decide to drive your car, and this is, it's not contagious.
00:56:35.000
The worry is that you're giving it to people that it's not their choice to get it, you know?
00:56:50.000
The real problem is if they start doing this for the flu.
00:56:53.000
This is a bad flu season, so we're going to institute social distancing.
00:57:02.000
If it got worse, if we were going to start opening up, I was at that point.
00:57:05.000
I was talking to the fam about maybe doing something.
00:57:23.000
Yeah, Theo said he went to St. George, Utah this past weekend.
00:57:28.000
He's like, that place was a shithole, but best restaurant I ever ate at.
00:57:33.000
Man, what is that going to be like, eating in a restaurant again?
00:57:36.000
But meanwhile, your server's going to be wearing a mask.
00:57:49.000
Hopefully people read the actual statistics and everyone kind of learns from this.
00:57:53.000
The problem is they're already committed to this doom scenario.
00:58:00.000
Well, millions of people are going to die, period.
00:58:02.000
Are millions of people going to die from this disease?
00:58:32.000
I'm going to put him in a plastic bubble and sit him in the corner.
00:59:00.000
You think that shit has a chance in the body of a super athlete?
00:59:03.000
Do you think that shit has a chance of every UFC fighter on the card this weekend?
00:59:07.000
Well, I want to know how many jiu-jitsu guys are getting it.
00:59:10.000
You want to talk about people that are constantly being exposed to other people's funk?
00:59:18.000
Everybody's in a room together, sweating like crazy.
00:59:20.000
You're literally rolling in puddles of other people's sweat.
00:59:24.000
The immune systems that you must have from doing jiu-jitsu must be off the charts.
00:59:36.000
Yeah, but even when they can open up, can a jujitsu gym open up?
00:59:39.000
A regular gym, they're going to spray down the surfaces.
00:59:42.000
I mean, I think they're talking about spin glasses and shit.
00:59:56.000
And then the requirements for all the fighters this weekend.
01:00:04.000
And the winner goes to another tunnel where the interview is secluded.
01:00:08.000
I wonder what kind of restaurants are going to be open in Jacksonville.
01:00:14.000
Yeah, I don't even know if Jacksonville's restaurants are open yet.
01:00:22.000
I'm getting there Saturday morning and I leave Sunday morning.
01:00:30.000
I mean, the whole deal is just, weigh-ins are supposed to be public anyway.
01:00:32.000
The only time I'm there is to do it on ESPN, and I'm there for the presentation, and I announce the fighter's weights, and interview the people in the main event, co-main event.
01:00:44.000
How cool would it be if Florida was like, hey, we're going to open it up.
01:01:02.000
I guarantee you people are so looking for something to do.
01:01:08.000
Look, there's so many people that are out of jobs, that's a fact, but people have some money and they need some fucking form of entertainment.
01:01:17.000
UFC is going to get people together too because people watch UFC with their crew.
01:01:21.000
So it's like, okay, dude, are you really that scared of COVID? I get the fight.
01:01:25.000
I'm going to order pizza and then everybody's going to get together.
01:01:27.000
Can you imagine watching fucking the fights with your boy and he's wearing a mask?
01:01:31.000
Dude, my producer, Chen, I go, are you watching the fights?
01:01:33.000
He goes, yeah, me and my buddies are going to Zoom it.
01:01:36.000
We're all going to watch it and get Zoom on it.
01:01:42.000
I hope they get zoom bombed by some fucking asshole.
01:01:45.000
Yeah, I hope someone fucking gives you a virus through the zoom, dude.
01:01:49.000
Those zoom bombers, people that are having zoom meetings, they find it and they just, fuck you, fuck you, suck my cat.
01:02:01.000
Pull their pants down, put their asshole in front of the webcam.
01:02:06.000
It's going to be real weird over the next six months when you see the economy because, you know, the way a friend of mine put it, he goes, there's so many people that are out of work right now and they don't even know it yet because their business is not going to be able to survive.
01:02:18.000
Whatever they're in, whatever they do in small businesses, they think at the high end we might lose as many as 40% of all small businesses.
01:02:31.000
Well, I wonder overall what the death rate's going to be when it comes to suicide, depression.
01:02:58.000
Swartzen told me he was talking to the sheriff, and the sheriff said they usually deal with about one suicide a week, and now they're dealing with five a day.
01:03:05.000
No one's saying this, yeah, but let's keep the old healthy, man.
01:03:13.000
I wonder how this is going to affect the governor politically.
01:03:37.000
And a fair amount of them were getting food at school.
01:03:46.000
New programs that have started to get a little bit of food.
01:03:51.000
And if you're a mom with little kids, toddlers, your break, your fucking grace for the day is those kids going to school or going to daycare.
01:04:03.000
Right, now what happens to those moms if they're single moms and their kids are at home and they have to go to work still?
01:04:10.000
They're out of job too, but they're stuck with the kids.
01:04:18.000
If they have to work and the kids can't go to school because school's locked down.
01:04:22.000
Let's make sure that the old people are okay, the economy goes to shit.
01:04:26.000
Do you think that's his perspective or do you think he's looking at it politically?
01:04:29.000
I think he's looking at it politically and if they can ruin the economy and that's what Trump's known for, then it's going to give Biden a better chance.
01:04:39.000
I was looking at this article where this woman said that I believe Tara Reid, the woman that says that Biden sexually assaulted her and I'm voting for Biden anyway.
01:04:53.000
Then how about Biden comes out and was like, we got to believe these victims and when I become president, I'm going to change the law.
01:05:16.000
He's so worked up about all this stupid shit and telling the media he was being sarcastic so that they reported that he said, you know, I really didn't mean inject Lysol and disinfectant.
01:05:32.000
When you look at all these politics, you're like, oh, this is all a bunch of nonsense.
01:05:37.000
I know, but to see how combative he is with people in the press, it's so silly.
01:05:40.000
It's such a waste of time and energy, and it makes him look so bad.
01:05:46.000
But that lady, that new press secretary, she's a fucking gangster.
01:05:52.000
You've never seen someone more prepared for a question in your life, Jamie.
01:06:05.000
That's why I said you've never seen someone more prepared for that specific question.
01:06:16.000
She came in there with that fucking Elon Musk flamethrower.
01:06:25.000
No, hey, listen, before everyone jumps in, I almost was saying that it almost seems like she was working with that reporter to say, hey, feed me this so I can shit on everybody.
01:06:40.000
He served her up a softball so she could fucking fire off the machine gun.
01:06:50.000
Because she said that Trump is not going to let the coronavirus come into the country.
01:06:54.000
And what she's saying, the reason why they're shutting down travel from Asia is because they're worried about the coronavirus coming to the country, and Trump's not going to let that happen.
01:07:03.000
So they tried to take what she said and take it out of context, Frame it in a way.
01:07:11.000
While she was saying that Trump is not going to let the country get infected by the coronavirus.
01:07:14.000
What she's trying to say is that he's not going to have free travel where people have coronavirus because it's going to bring the virus in.
01:07:22.000
Not that it's the only way the virus is going to get here.
01:07:33.000
All those journalists are kind of douchebags in the first place.
01:07:36.000
They're trying so hard to have these moments where they fucking play got ya.
01:07:43.000
But when do these journalists quit being journalists and become like fucking trolls off Reddit?
01:07:47.000
Like some of their questions to Trump, that's why Trump goes so hard in the paint on them.
01:07:55.000
A lion should not be so concerned about the opinion of sheep.
01:08:00.000
It's not becoming of someone who's in such a powerful position.
01:08:06.000
That guy's a fucking writer for Washington Post.
01:08:19.000
Yeah, and then she had a big smile and walked off as they're trying to say, and he's like, you prepared for that?
01:08:26.000
Oh, gee, you think she prepared for it with all those stats that she read right in front of you?
01:08:30.000
Dude, they need to hire your boy Elon Musk to get on that fucking committee.
01:08:34.000
The first thing I have didn't have the video link, so I'm looking for it.
01:08:48.000
I'm in the middle of doing five things and switching the cameras between you and talking.
01:08:57.000
People online, I love Jamie Vernon and we're just playing.
01:09:01.000
However, I do know that he's on the wrong side.
01:09:18.000
President Trump will not allow the coronavirus to come to this country.
01:09:22.000
Given what has happened since then, obviously, would you like to take that back?
01:09:27.000
Well first let me note I was asked a question on Fox Business about the president's travel restrictions.
01:09:34.000
I noted what was the intent behind those travel restrictions which is we will not see the coronavirus come here, we will not see terrorism come here, referring to an earlier set of travel restrictions.
01:09:44.000
I guess I would turn the question back on the media and ask similar questions.
01:09:48.000
Does Vox want to take back that they proclaim that the coronavirus would not be a deadly pandemic?
01:09:53.000
Does the Washington Post want to take back That they told Americans to get a grip the flu is bigger than the coronavirus?
01:09:59.000
Does the Washington Post likewise want to take back that our brains are causing us to exaggerate the threat of the coronavirus?
01:10:06.000
Does the New York Times want to take back that fear of the virus may be spreading faster than the virus itself?
01:10:13.000
Does NPR want to take back that the flu was a much bigger threat than the coronavirus?
01:10:17.000
And finally, once again, the Washington Post, would they like to take back that the government should not respond aggressively to the coronavirus?
01:10:24.000
I'll leave you with those questions and maybe you'll have some answers in a few days.
01:10:40.000
Imagine you have one opportunity to ask her a question and that's what you ask her.
01:10:54.000
And then you get out of there and everyone's like, damn, that was crazy.
01:11:06.000
You guys can say that's not it, but I'm just asking a question.
01:11:15.000
What he was doing like that is a cunty question.
01:11:22.000
His job is to try to get attention and get some gotcha.
01:11:29.000
In the game of politics, he might get one back in two months by helping her out now, and now they're going to be a little bit of friends because they definitely play both sides of the game.
01:11:42.000
This is that one YouTube video that everybody's sending me that says, you've got to look into this, about that lady who apparently worked for Fauci.
01:11:55.000
I'm not saying that, but that's what I'm doing.
01:12:06.000
I don't have the time to watch the whole thing.
01:12:08.000
Yeah, I watch a few minutes of it and then I try to click on the link 20 minutes later and it's taken down and a new one pops up.
01:12:27.000
All you want to do is shut down everything nonstop?
01:12:29.000
I do got to say that Bill Gates seems really excited about vaccines.
01:12:33.000
And, you know, what I've heard from more than one person is that, first of all, I don't know if there's ever been a coronavirus vaccine.
01:12:45.000
And two, the other thing is they're saying that even if you get vaccinated for this, you might have to get vaccinated every year for it.
01:12:52.000
It might be something that returns every year in some new form and you have to get vaccinated again.
01:12:57.000
And there's no indication so far that people who have antibodies are 100% immune to it.
01:13:06.000
Also, they found out, there was an article, see if you can find this.
01:13:14.000
There was an article that said that they've determined that the people in Korea, at least, who tested negative for the coronavirus and then tested positive, that these were some...
01:13:25.000
I think the way I describe them is latent antibodies in their system, and that they're just such a small amount that even though they're testing positive, it's still from the initial infection and not some...
01:13:41.000
It says they're testing to see if they've been reactivated by being...
01:13:50.000
I think it's funny, too, how, you know, like, Texas, Ohio, Atlanta, Utah, Denver, these cities opening up, and people are going, see, look what happens when we open up, more cases.
01:14:16.000
One death from COVID. We can take this operation to Utah or Montana.
01:14:38.000
Well, Salt Lake City, Wise Guys are some of the best clubs.
01:14:52.000
Yeah, that Salt Lake City club is fucking fantastic.
01:14:55.000
His brother, you'll like this, Jamie, his brother was the offense coordinator at Alabama.
01:15:01.000
So I'll talk to him about football because he knows his shit, man.
01:15:07.000
Yeah, that's an underrated place, Salt Lake City.
01:15:11.000
The Mormons got everybody so scared of Salt Lake City.
01:15:13.000
You can go there at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
01:15:17.000
Then go to the Red Iguana, get that Mexican food.
01:15:36.000
I have a show end of June, which is almost sold out in Spokane, and I do meet and greets, and the club's like, no meet and greets.
01:15:45.000
Brennan's not going to meet with anyone because they worry about Corona.
01:15:47.000
I emailed my manager this morning and went, dude, I'm good to meet and greet, man.
01:15:59.000
I'm like, I'll sign a waiver, whatever you want, but I'm not going to go there and not meet people, dude.
01:16:06.000
When do you think it's going to be back to normal, where people won't be scared anymore?
01:16:10.000
Let the bitches suck on their thumb and hide, and the rest of us just go about our business, man.
01:16:17.000
I asked my dad about what it was like in polio in the 50s when they were growing up.
01:16:22.000
And that summer when people were getting tested, people were afraid to jump in pools because there's polio in that pool.
01:16:31.000
Well, the worry is that it comes back in the fall.
01:16:34.000
And I don't totally understand this, when they're going to say it's going to die off in the heat and then come back when it gets cold again.
01:16:44.000
Here's the other thing is we did the quarantine to really protect the old and those at risk, but also to make sure the hospitals can tolerate the mass of people coming in there with COVID.
01:16:55.000
Well, I think we've done a pretty good job of that.
01:16:58.000
Those hospitals, a lot of them are shutting down.
01:17:03.000
I mean, you-- Now, New York says, hold my mask.
01:17:10.000
But other than that, man, I have friends who are nurses, especially in Texas and L.A., and they're like...
01:17:16.000
People are scared to come in here now because they think they're going to get COVID here.
01:17:21.000
It's like we're living in a real shitty Black Mirror episode.
01:17:25.000
It's like the most boringest episode of all time.
01:17:27.000
Well, the guy from Black Mirror says he's not even going to have a season this year because he can't.
01:17:32.000
The world is too bonkers for him to be able to do Black Mirror.
01:17:52.000
As soon as the last episode of season three was over, I googled, when does season four start?
01:17:59.000
Like, how are you going to leave me hanging like that?
01:18:04.000
Because then they have to get close to each other.
01:18:24.000
I want to, though, because you said it's good, right?
01:18:28.000
Third season lost me in the beginning, but I might try it again.
01:18:44.000
The scariest people on the scariest show are women.
01:18:48.000
That Darlene bitch is the scariest woman in all of television.
01:18:59.000
And then she's hooking up like that 17-year-old.
01:19:23.000
I binge-watched every Adam Sandler movie he's ever done.
01:19:43.000
Zohan is, to this day, one of the funniest movies I've ever seen in my life.
01:20:04.000
People want really clever, really great writing.
01:20:09.000
You're telling me Billy Masson and Happy Gilmore is not creative writing?
01:20:16.000
The kind of jokes, although they're hilarious, they're like all dick jokes.
01:20:35.000
There's so many of those movies I haven't seen in forever.
01:20:39.000
I haven't seen so many of those movies forever.
01:21:05.000
If you care to, the book, which I listened to, it's one of the only fiction books I've ever even bothered to go through, but I listened to it.
01:21:14.000
Will Wheaton, the guy from Star Trek, reads it, and he reads some character voices.
01:21:23.000
The stuff they do, Like the trials, if you will.
01:21:27.000
I don't want to spoil it much because it's so different.
01:21:34.000
They just couldn't do it in the movie because they would have had to pay for way more licenses for way more things.
01:21:38.000
Hey, did your boy Tom O'Neill, who wrote that Manson book, the CIA book, did he say when they're going to come out with the documentary, the TV show of it?
01:21:46.000
No, because they still haven't decided whether or not they're going to do one single documentary or they're going to do an Amazon series like Wild West or Wild Country.
01:21:55.000
They should do a series like Wild Wild Country.
01:22:08.000
There's so much going on with that fucking book.
01:22:12.000
But that book became a New York Times bestseller after it came on the podcast.
01:22:33.000
Yeah, it's a really well-researched and well-done book.
01:22:39.000
It's crazy to think that this guy worked on it for 20 years.
01:22:44.000
And it started out as a magazine article for Premiere.
01:22:47.000
And as he started uncovering things, he's like, holy shit.
01:22:51.000
It'll make you question everything with the CIA and all that stuff.
01:22:57.000
You got into it way before he was on the podcast.
01:23:10.000
After that whole time period, you know, in the late 60s and 70s, I liked that time period, especially in Hollywood.
01:23:18.000
And then somebody recommended it to me, like a fan.
01:23:25.000
You know, Fitzsimmons knew that guy during the entire time he was writing that book.
01:23:38.000
He goes, there's something you'd really be interested in.
01:23:41.000
My friend Tom O'Neill wrote this book about Manson.
01:23:48.000
And the more he starts talking, I'm like, what?
01:23:51.000
He goes, he was part of this CIA LSD experiment where they were helping Manson get LSD, and they were teaching him these tactics for getting these fucking hippies.
01:24:08.000
And then it turns out that those doctors with the same names as the doctors that were in the CIA LSD program also visited Manson in prison.
01:24:18.000
And they see how much leeway they gave him getting in trouble with the law.
01:24:22.000
Every time he got arrested, they let him out, even while he was on parole.
01:24:27.000
And every time they talked to the sheriffs or the different cops that arrested him, they're like, it's above my pay grade.
01:24:35.000
What's interesting about Manson, too, is he's obviously the most famous serial killer.
01:24:49.000
And he directed those other people to kill people.
01:24:54.000
Well, what's interesting is- That wouldn't be a serial killer.
01:25:00.000
But he's also a part of a CIA LSD PSYOP program.
01:25:05.000
All that fucking- Wasn't Kaczynski too, though?
01:25:10.000
Kaczynski was a part of the Harvard LSD experiments.
01:25:14.000
They were doing a lot of wacky shit with LSD back in those days.
01:25:18.000
There's a lot of terrible things that happened to people because they dosed them up with LSD and blew their brains out.
01:25:23.000
It's weird Manson never came out and said this.
01:25:25.000
Like, oh dude, I was fine until these fucks came along and gave me LSD. I was trying to fucking play with the, you know, the Beach Boys.
01:25:46.000
Yeah, Brian Wilson was going to give him some sort of a contract, and they...
01:25:52.000
Then his agent went down to his ranch and was like, well, this is terrible.
01:25:55.000
And that's when he's like, oh, well, we're going to kill you now.
01:26:05.000
The whole hippie movement is a new thing, right?
01:26:07.000
Before the 60s, the 50s, there was nothing like that.
01:26:09.000
So all of a sudden, that's like from 2010, there's no hippies at all.
01:26:14.000
And all of a sudden, here we are in 2020 and hippies are everywhere.
01:26:17.000
And the flower children, they're doing acid and freaking out.
01:26:40.000
And they shut everything down and avoided the pandemic.
01:26:49.000
It was more deaths than we have during this thing so far.
01:26:56.000
Everyone's like, we've never seen something like this before.
01:27:01.000
Everybody goes to 1918. Hong Kong flu, 1968, killed one million worldwide and 100,000 in the U.S., Wow.
01:27:11.000
Think about all the dudes that got their dicks sucked during that pandemic.
01:27:23.000
And then they tried to call this one the Kung flu.
01:27:37.000
One story is, yes, it was created in the market.
01:27:40.000
The other story is, it was something that was in a lab and it was leaked.
01:27:51.000
We talked about the disease, but we basically talked about the infringements on civil liberties by forcing people to stay home, and he doesn't agree with any of that.
01:27:59.000
He said you should have the right to quarantine if you so choose to.
01:28:12.000
I take my son to a gym over there, Jeff Foley's gym.
01:28:15.000
And we park right by it and you see the huge spaceship and the parking.
01:28:34.000
You take a right and see this huge spaceship, SpaceX, and this dope building.
01:28:39.000
Dude, we were talking about Neuralink a lot yesterday.
01:28:44.000
They're going to drill a fucking one-inch diameter hole in your head and insert something with these little wires.
01:28:51.000
They're going to go about two millimeters into your brain, and they're going to juice up your fucking noggin.
01:29:01.000
So then you just have a computer in your brain?
01:29:16.000
Tune into each other with a universal language of love.
01:29:27.000
One other thing he said when we were talking about artificial intelligence, it was like, if you can't beat them, join them.
01:29:47.000
I'm going to put out podcasts just laying there and just thinking.
01:29:56.000
Well, the point of this, first of all, initially, is to heal injuries.
01:29:59.000
He said we're going to be able to take people with spinal cord injuries, even quadriplegics.
01:30:08.000
But the thing is about people that are injured that can't move, you're basically going to have new things that move your muscles where your spinal cord doesn't work anymore.
01:30:25.000
So it'll work better than your own fucking spinal cord and your own nerves.
01:30:30.000
So then your reactions, your movement, sports are going to be insane.
01:30:33.000
Yeah, imagine some dude who's got like a catastrophic neck injury and they go, we got good news and bad news.
01:30:39.000
Bad news is you have a catastrophic neck injury.
01:30:44.000
The good news is we're going to install Neuralink and your body's going to work way better than it ever worked.
01:30:50.000
You're just going to have to bypass the regular nerves with the synthetic nerves.
01:30:57.000
It's going to take about 16 hours on the operating table.
01:30:59.000
And you're going to get out and you're going to be able to jump over buildings.
01:31:02.000
Yeah, but you know that first version is going to be like the cell phone.
01:31:06.000
So it's going to be some blocky, you look like an asshole.
01:31:13.000
Not for you right now, but just like you don't want to carry that brick that fucking homeboy had in Wall Street in your pocket.
01:31:24.000
But look, all those years later, look what we got.
01:31:30.000
In the beginning, it's going to be some stupid thing.
01:31:32.000
You got to wear a football helmet everywhere, but you could see the moon.
01:31:37.000
You can read people's minds, but you have some fucking big bulky thing in your head, like a motorcycle helmet or something.
01:31:43.000
I'll probably be dead, but for my kids, it's going to be a weird one.
01:31:50.000
He's talking about the implementation of this stuff.
01:31:52.000
Five years, that thing's going to be like a jillion dollars.
01:31:57.000
But I think the thing that you have to worry about is the haves and the have-nots.
01:32:00.000
There's never going to be a bigger distinction between haves and have-nots to when you have this neural link that literally turns you into a super cyborg, and the people that are poor have no access to that.
01:32:15.000
You're gonna have access to so much more productivity.
01:32:18.000
You're gonna be able to get so much more accomplished.
01:32:29.000
Well, like he said, if you can't beat him, join him?
01:32:31.000
Well, I also think his brain is so different than our brains.
01:32:35.000
When you're sitting there talking to him, I think he's trying to talk to me the way I talk to a three-year-old.
01:32:41.000
Like, if a three-year-old's trying to talk to me about a drawing they made, I'm like, oh, okay, cool.
01:32:59.000
Whenever I text him, I'm always surprised he texts me back.
01:33:06.000
Well, he was tweeting a bunch of crazy shit about getting rid of his houses.
01:33:11.000
Did he explain why he wants to get rid of his house?
01:33:14.000
Yeah, he said that it's an attack vector, the fact that he has so much possessions, and he's so wealthy.
01:33:19.000
People go, oh, you're a billionaire, you have so many things.
01:33:46.000
And so I saw him like, I guarantee you, he probably wants- There's a lot to say.
01:33:51.000
Yeah, and he also wants an opportunity to express himself freely.
01:33:56.000
There's not a lot of places where he can just do that.
01:34:27.000
The only reason why he didn't come in the day before yesterday is his kid was born.
01:34:32.000
Yeah, so he left the hospital, went home, came right here.
01:34:37.000
Always been a fan, even when he didn't have hair.
01:34:52.000
I don't get why Trump and LeBron don't figure it out.
01:34:56.000
Yeah, well, LeBron, first of all, just shave his head.
01:35:04.000
I swear to God, if I could grow hair, I'd shave my head.
01:35:20.000
I used to have a hairdresser that I went to for years, and she's nice, and I miss her.
01:35:30.000
You had a good set of hair on you, though, too, man.
01:36:00.000
He got it really short and now he's letting it grow a little longer.
01:36:15.000
Every like four or five days, I take the clippers and I fucking...
01:36:21.000
Because Jamie can't get a haircut because there's no barber.
01:36:28.000
When you go outside, you gotta put on sunscreen and shit.
01:36:42.000
And then I got on the trails and I was like, I'm hot as fuck.
01:36:50.000
I remember I was like, looking in the mirror, fixing my...
01:36:53.000
Yeah, when you're fighting, you can't be thinking about shit like that.
01:36:55.000
I was thinking about shaving, I was trying to convince my son to shave it too.
01:37:00.000
He looks like a little Navy SEAL and it's shaved.
01:37:04.000
Dude, I gotta convince him not to touch fucking rattlesnakes, man.
01:37:09.000
No, I kept showing him videos, because I show him the videos.
01:37:12.000
Before I show you guys, I show him when I get home.
01:37:20.000
That comp's going to help you when you get older.
01:37:22.000
But right now, he goes, I'm the fast skin of the world.
01:37:24.000
I go, you are fast, but you're not faster than the snake.
01:37:27.000
I go, I'm telling you you're not faster than the snake.
01:37:31.000
I go, all right, well, let's say you're a little faster than me.
01:37:34.000
We're not as fast as this, and I'll play a video of a snake striking.
01:37:44.000
So I've been showing them just horrible- Like Napoleon Dynamite.
01:37:54.000
So now I tell the lady who watches him during the day, if I'm at work, or his mom, if he goes outside, someone has to go first.
01:38:01.000
If you're a rattlesnake, you get him the fuck out of there.
01:38:12.000
It's going to pay off when he's older if he gets in sports, but right now it's a problem.
01:38:21.000
People have been sending me socks you can buy where the snake can't get through it.
01:38:27.000
I have no idea, but I should probably get a pair.
01:38:30.000
Yeah, it's got to be the same material they use for knife-proof vests and shit like that.
01:38:34.000
Dude, I'm going mountain biking with this guy Joe.
01:38:41.000
And that's why I've been training so hard, because I know I'm going to go with him, so I want to try and see where I'm at with this pro guy.
01:38:50.000
Before I go to sleep at night, I'll go through the trail in my head.
01:38:52.000
Just like when I was fighting, I go through it in my head.
01:39:07.000
You go to the top of a glacier and you go all the way down.
01:39:09.000
That's the thing we've seen a few times where everybody crashes in that big thing.
01:39:14.000
That's the one where you go over that ridge and to the left and to the right is death?
01:39:20.000
What's weird about me is I like to suffer a little.
01:39:27.000
Sometimes my quads will get so pumped of blood, I have to get off and walk.
01:39:31.000
I have this weird trigger in me where I'm like, fuck yeah, dude.
01:39:43.000
You're getting cardio without beating the fuck out of your joints.
01:40:01.000
Some of these are tubeless, but I know how to fix it.
01:40:07.000
So where if they get a flat, there's a liquid in that fills the hole.
01:40:21.000
When you first got into hunting, weren't you obsessed with it?
01:40:30.000
The Thick Boy Bike Club, that was a joke at first, but then all these people just started...
01:40:36.000
I'm getting hundreds and thousands of messages of people on their bikes.
01:40:43.000
You know how Kevin Hart does those things where he has these races?
01:40:51.000
Well, once we go back to normal, every city I go into, that Saturday, we're meeting at their top trail.
01:41:08.000
People are going to fall and break their fucking necks right in front of me.
01:41:12.000
That's why you can't charge them to be part of it.
01:41:29.000
I have so many people reaching out to me, specialized, you know, all these people just reaching out.
01:41:36.000
It's one of the best things that happen out of this quarantine.
01:41:39.000
When I say I love it, man, literally, I close my eyes the night before I go through the entire trail.
01:41:49.000
He'll be like, he'll get on and go, please quit posting your bike.
01:41:56.000
I think he's just fucking around, but he just, I don't know.
01:42:01.000
Who's telling me about the homeless problem he's got near his place?
01:42:05.000
You know, I grew up in Venice in the summer, so Venice is in my heart, man.
01:42:09.000
I love Venice, but there's always been a bum problem.
01:42:11.000
We went to Felix, that fucking dope restaurant on Abbott-Kinney.
01:42:16.000
And as we're passing this, on the left is a beautiful house, probably a $5 million house.
01:42:25.000
This guy's literally across the street from a homeless encampment.
01:42:30.000
The tough thing is, again, I love Venice, one of my favorite places on earth, if not my favorite.
01:42:37.000
Like, I don't want my son being around that, you know?
01:42:43.000
And Brian sent us that article about how it's essentially just devastating real estate prices.
01:42:52.000
People have no idea what to do or how to fix it.
01:42:56.000
I know now that I'm so into biking, I'm only going to live in either Palisades, Malibu or Woodland Hills where we're at.
01:43:05.000
So when I go over, I go to Palisades, Malibu or I'm in Woodland Hills...
01:43:24.000
It's a great place to live in terms of air quality.
01:43:33.000
My kid goes to school over there, so I've got to figure it out.
01:43:41.000
Well, you know, I mean, California is good in terms of weather.
01:44:03.000
The real question is, what's everything gonna be like when everything reopens?
01:44:11.000
If this governor thinks he can lock everything down again, even after we've shown...
01:44:15.000
Look, if the statistics come out, and what Elon said was true, that the death rate, when it appears to be, is far lower than anybody anticipated.
01:44:23.000
If this guy still thinks they're gonna lock everything down again in a few months, if we get a second wave, he can eat shit.
01:44:34.000
People aren't going to put up with it, and yeah, they're going to leave, but I also just think they're not going to put up with it.
01:44:39.000
Well, it could be very bad for him politically if he continues to go down this route because it's devastating to the economy.
01:44:45.000
You've got to give people the ability to make their own decisions.
01:44:48.000
Yeah, and I like when people are revolting against it.
01:44:52.000
There's something about that I'm like, fuck yeah, dude.
01:44:54.000
And where they're revolting is all the Republican areas.
01:44:59.000
Oh, you're talking about the areas he wanted to shut down?
01:45:10.000
And then those people at this beach went, not happening.
01:45:14.000
You think he did that politically because they are a Republican town?
01:45:28.000
Yeah, when we can read each other's minds, we won't need those cunts.
01:45:33.000
There should be established rules that we all follow.
01:45:38.000
You need someone to watch over the military to see that they don't fucking go out of control and try to take over like China.
01:45:49.000
You need a large group of people, not one person, and they need to have exhibited the fact that they're objective and reasonable and ethical and moral.
01:46:06.000
Yeah, if there was going to be an uprising and cases, and if they shut down again, I would probably have to leave.
01:46:19.000
We should all talk, go to one place, and go to that comedy club and fucking rock that house every fucking night.
01:46:36.000
If there's an earthquake, that's when everyone's really going to understand that we're in a bad spot.
01:46:41.000
Yeah, well, taxes should help you understand you're in a bad spot.
01:46:51.000
Well, that's when so many people moved to Nevada.
01:46:53.000
You know, Nevada gets 60,000 people a year from California.
01:47:04.000
Dana and I were talking about the political atmosphere of Nevada and that their governor is Democrat and a lot of the reasons why.
01:47:13.000
They used to be really a red state and they're not anymore and a lot of reasons why are all the people that are pumping in from California.
01:47:20.000
Yeah, but they don't have state taxes so it's a great place if you're trying to save some money.
01:47:29.000
I think I'd rather go to Texas or Florida without those state taxes.
01:47:33.000
I wouldn't mind living in Tahoe, up in the mountains areas.
01:47:51.000
I love your idea of doing residency in LA. You do it, not me.
01:48:05.000
Like a decent sized theater, like the Larga or something like that?
01:48:15.000
Because think how many shows you do at the Comedy Store and at the Improv.
01:48:18.000
Think how many, you go through the tickets, that's a lot of people.
01:48:24.000
Hey, who's not going to fly to LAC Rogue and do the Largo every Friday?
01:48:31.000
I'm already doing it at the Comedy Store and the Improv when everything was up and running.
01:48:47.000
Look, I have dates coming up in October, and I don't even know if I'm going to be able to do them.
01:48:52.000
Like I've got Madison Square Garden's almost sold out.
01:49:03.000
If you've got 18,000 people, what are the rules?
01:49:12.000
Ray Romano used to have the I'm not a homo joke about going to the theater with your buddy.
01:49:17.000
You have to have a seat in between the two of you.
01:49:20.000
But think how fast, you know, we talk all this shit about opening up, but think how fast things are moving now.
01:49:35.000
But I'm worried about New York in terms of people moving out of New York.
01:49:38.000
I think people are going to realize how preposterous it is to be stacked on top of each other.
01:49:43.000
If you haven't figured it out yet, I mean, come on, man.
01:49:45.000
This is going to be a big wake-up call for them.
01:50:05.000
For the last month and a half, it's been stagnant.
01:50:08.000
Remember, Newsom's a goddamn cocksucker, so he's holding things back.
01:50:13.000
But if a bunch of people start dropping like flies in two weeks in Atlanta, we're going to have a real problem.
01:50:20.000
If Spokane gets one more death, your boy's probably not coming up there.
01:50:23.000
There's going to be places we're going to be allowed to go, for sure.
01:50:26.000
I get messages every day, dude, Spokane, ticket sales, but I'm like, I haven't even promoted it.
01:50:31.000
I haven't even started promoting it because I'm like, I don't know, man.
01:50:34.000
It's going to be our first Thick Boys Bike Club get-together that Saturday morning.
01:50:38.000
So you're going to do that every time you do it?
01:50:41.000
You don't think you're going to get bored with this biking shit?
01:50:45.000
But there's got to be some places that don't even have bike trails.
01:51:09.000
It's on camera, but it's pretty rare that an alligator attacks and kills a person.
01:51:13.000
People think I'm closer to those rattlesnakes when I post a picture of them, or the video of them, but I zoom in.
01:51:20.000
My bike's always between me and the rattlesnake, usually.
01:51:23.000
He's just run over his head, flatten it out, hold onto it.
01:51:26.000
Yeah, but then someone sent me a video of a guy running over one, and even though he ran over it, it was so big, it turned back and bit his fucking calf.
01:51:43.000
Well, he probably tried to be a pussy and run over the back of it.
01:52:10.000
He's the fastest four-year-old you've ever seen.
01:52:15.000
He's these big old calves he got from his mama.
01:52:22.000
Some kids are just jacked when they're young and you realize that life isn't fair.
01:52:26.000
You look at some kids and they look like they're literally made out of marshmallows.
01:52:34.000
Like, did you see that five-year-old that stole the car to go buy a Lamborghini?
01:52:46.000
And when you see him, you're like, well, that's the biggest five-year-old in the world.
01:52:58.000
And he stole this car because his mom told me he can't have a Lamborghini.
01:53:02.000
Five-year-old driving an SUV on a Utah freeway.
01:53:05.000
And then he goes, I'm going to California to buy a Lamborghini.
01:53:11.000
They spotted the vehicle driving 35 miles an hour and swerving.
01:53:15.000
This five-year-old is just driving on the highway.
01:53:31.000
His sister fell asleep while she was babysitting him.
01:53:37.000
Yeah, because I guess before his mom left to work, he's like, can I have a Lamborghini?
01:53:41.000
She's like, wait, are you at your fucking mind?
01:53:43.000
He's like, I had three dollars with him, and he was going to buy a Lamborghini.
01:53:52.000
Did you see that big baby, too, that meme that was going around with this gigantic baby?
01:54:11.000
Those giant babies, it never really ends well for them, does it?
01:54:16.000
Mom of Big Baby tells haters he's actually healthy.
01:54:22.000
They were just like, this is the next NFL line.
01:54:26.000
Did you see all that shit where Adele was getting crap for losing weight?
01:54:34.000
You used to be a representative of us fat fucks.
01:54:39.000
They're saying that this shouldn't define beauty standards and that losing weight and being thin shouldn't be what we look to for beauty standards.
01:54:50.000
You mean Adele got healthy and you fat fucks want to stuff your face with pizza and get COVID and blame it on us?
01:54:56.000
They also want to pretend they're still beautiful.
01:55:05.000
Hating on Adele for being disciplined, finally getting her shit together, quitting fish and chips?
01:55:09.000
I want that plus-size model thing to carry over to men.
01:55:12.000
I'm waiting for men to decide that these abs and six-packs and ripped muscles and this is...
01:55:31.000
There's a lot of fat girls that get, you go, girl.
01:55:46.000
Yeah, that's Thor from Marvel Comics when he drank a lot of beer.
01:55:50.000
He lost that way real quick in that scene, though.
01:56:01.000
Andy Stump said it fucking sucked, and he said it's so unrealistic, because, you know, Andy's a legitimate seal.
01:56:18.000
Yeah, they're jumping R8 from building to building, Andy.
01:56:21.000
And then you got The Rock holding the helicopter by a chain.
01:56:41.000
When they fight two days in a row, I'm like, hey, hey, hey.
01:56:43.000
Do you ever talk to a guy a day after he had a fucking cage fight?
01:56:50.000
The idea that you're going to fight two days in a row is so stupid.
01:56:57.000
They're going to rewrite things for dramatic effects.
01:57:00.000
That's what happened with Uncut Gems you were talking about earlier.
01:57:05.000
Three big plot points that people say aren't real?
01:57:19.000
You gotta watch The Last Dance on ESPN. Jamie was talking about that too.
01:57:28.000
Because it doesn't really get into the X's and O's of basketball.
01:57:50.000
Just, you know, when they're in the Olympics, you know, they're practicing, and all the best guys were on one team.
01:57:56.000
He was on one team with, like, the B-side, and they got up by six, and someone talked shit to him.
01:58:07.000
You watch that, you're like, gee, this is insane, dude.
01:58:20.000
And one of the reasons he retired from that negativity.
01:58:23.000
You're like, oh dude, if you thought that was negative.
01:58:25.000
Think about the players now dealing with social media.
01:58:27.000
Oh yeah, that's one of the reasons why people respect LeBron James so much in comparison.
01:58:31.000
I mean, he's dealing with the worst aspects of social media.
01:58:48.000
Whatever gun he's shooting and he's like hanging out with bums at four in the morning.
01:59:03.000
Some people just let it roll right off their back.
01:59:09.000
Because he's the creator of this madness, but he's still just like, yeah, dude, all right.
01:59:26.000
I mean, I always point to the fact that the guy opened up that fight with Shogun, youngest guy ever to win the title, opens up with a flying knee against a legend.
01:59:37.000
Well, I'll tell you what, not as nuts, but what is crazy is when you're fighting Marco Kokop on the same card, I open up with a head kick.
01:59:57.000
Am I crazy to think Dominic Cruz can beat Henry Cejudo in decision?
02:00:06.000
Henry Cejudo beat Marlon Marais, but Marlon Marais, it seemed like kind of fell apart.
02:00:22.000
Yeah, but he got real emotional with the Cody Garbrandt fight.
02:00:30.000
He's 36, 37 now, which is old for a 135 pound fighter.
02:00:54.000
If it's Dom in kind of that fashion, I don't know, man.
02:01:00.000
Well, Dominic Cruz is a tough fight for everybody.
02:01:05.000
And also, you know, I mean, he's got to realize there's not a whole lot more opportunities left.
02:01:41.000
I think it's a disservice to DC. I love Stipe, and he has the ISU, and he's talking about, oh, I can't even get a cage.
02:01:49.000
It's like, dude, if you're not going to fight, then we've got to figure something out.
02:01:52.000
I think the UFC gave him some sort of an ultimatum.
02:01:58.000
Yeah, there was an article about it today where there's some sort of a discussion.
02:02:04.000
Well, what I don't want is Stipe to come back too soon when he's not ready and lose that fight and ruin a little bit of his legacy.
02:02:12.000
Better let these guys do their thing when they come back.
02:02:16.000
Yeah, I don't know if Stipe's ever going to be able to fight again.
02:02:31.000
The first fight with DC. I don't know if that's where the eye injury came from, but it could have been.
02:02:38.000
God, I don't see DC jumping onto bed to fight Francis.
02:02:43.000
I think if Stipe backs off and says, I'm done, you know, my eyes are too precious, I think DC retires.
02:02:51.000
Unless they come up with some sort of wild 205-pound fight for him that allows him to make that cut again.
02:02:57.000
Dude, and then how long is Francis going to reign as the champion?
02:03:17.000
Because they're basing off the Overeem fight, which is a bad idea to do in the first place.
02:03:30.000
But you're talking about two different game plans.
02:03:36.000
You have no idea what that guy's feeling that night.
02:03:38.000
Like Cerrone, to the point, we all, I think, in the media, especially MMA media, we all went 2-1?
02:03:53.000
Like, you went hard on him, I went hard on him.
02:03:57.000
And then Donald comes out and is like, just wasn't there that night.
02:04:08.000
And I think the overwhelming pressure of those big events, it was bad in the Pettis fight, it's bad in the Rafael dos Santos fight.
02:04:16.000
Yeah, he gets to the tippity-tippity top where it's the chance of a lifetime.
02:04:33.000
Even though he's not from the sport, which is insane to say, but he's a hot take guy.
02:04:37.000
So him saying he didn't show up, it's like, and then Cowboy goes, I didn't show up, like, alright, little...
02:04:41.000
And he asked for an apology from everybody in the MMA community.
02:04:52.000
And he's talking about it the same way you would talk about someone who misses a free throw.
02:04:59.000
It didn't vibe well with the actual fight fans.
02:05:02.000
But they brought him in to do Stephen A. Smith stuff.
02:05:07.000
I mean, that's why he's popular, because he makes those bold statements.
02:05:11.000
So he makes $9 million a year from ESPN or whatever the fuck it is.
02:05:15.000
Then he comes over to our sport, it's the same thing.
02:05:18.000
This sport, it requires a different perspective.
02:05:21.000
Also, it's a sport that they know if you're a real fan.
02:05:25.000
They don't want regular sports guys jumping over here.
02:05:30.000
You can be a regular sports guy, but you've got to be a real fan of the actual sport.
02:05:34.000
You've got to be pretty hardcore to get in the game.
02:05:37.000
Yeah, that's what they prefer because there's enough people out there that are talking about it on a regular basis that are hardcore fans of it that are really good of it, like Luke Thomas.
02:05:46.000
Guys that are hardcore fans of it, but that have...
02:05:50.000
Real objective takes where they're analyzing it from a perspective of knowledge.
02:06:08.000
But he's on such the other spectrum when it comes to COVID. He's so terrified.
02:06:14.000
And obviously, I'm all the way the fuck over here.
02:06:26.000
He just thinks it's like the UFC having a fight is insane.
02:06:31.000
I know before when they were going to put the one on California, he was like, absolutely not.
02:06:35.000
Any other sport would be shit on, but the MMA media doesn't care.
02:06:38.000
The media doesn't care about the UFC. They shouldn't be doing this.
02:06:43.000
I think they should have had the fight in California if Newsom's bitch ass didn't come in and stop it.
02:06:47.000
But with precautions, why is it such a big deal?
02:07:02.000
They dig around there and then they pull it out.
02:07:07.000
It feels weird because it's irritating, but it stays irritating for a long time.
02:07:15.000
It stays irritating for like 15 minutes after it's over.
02:07:26.000
It's the active bacteria, the active virus, rather.
02:07:31.000
Whereas the other one is just testing the antibodies.
02:07:34.000
And the other one, they can tell whether or not you have a current infection or you recovered from an infection.
02:07:39.000
But this is like, are you sick with it right now?
02:07:54.000
It's not like these tests are hard to get anymore, right?
02:07:57.000
There was a point in time in the beginning of this outbreak two months ago where it was very difficult to get these tests.
02:08:02.000
You get these tests, you get the results back fairly quickly, very quickly, 15 minutes with the antibody test.
02:08:17.000
If you're talking about healthy people, the idea that that's irresponsible is foolishness.
02:08:22.000
It's not even irresponsible to let them play basketball.
02:08:25.000
Because even if they had the COVID, these fucking guys aren't even showing any symptoms.
02:08:34.000
Get back to work, MLB! You know how far away they are from each other?
02:08:43.000
Listen, it's not what everybody thought it was going to be.
02:08:46.000
Everybody thought it was going to be like the Spanish flu or the fucking Black Plague.
02:08:51.000
How about Dana said reporters called in and complained to the Newsom, to the government, and that's why he got shut down.
02:09:07.000
These fucking haters were like, how can you do this?
02:09:10.000
And called in, and then Newsom was like, how can we do this?
02:09:14.000
So that's why he said the pussy media, you know?
02:09:20.000
I wonder, see, but the perspective of the people back then, a month ago, was different.
02:09:27.000
The public's perspective, the information, the more the information comes in, the better things look.
02:09:33.000
You know, the worse it looks if someone in your family died or your grandma died or something.
02:09:39.000
But the more the data comes in, the more it looks like it's not nearly as deadly.
02:09:45.000
You gotta be willing to take the information in, though.
02:09:48.000
As many as 70% of the people that get it are asymptomatic, which is just bonkers, right?
02:09:52.000
And then with young, healthy people, it's off the charts.
02:09:55.000
But just people in general, there's something that's like 98.7?
02:10:05.000
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure Dana was saying he has the list of those fucks who called in.
02:10:24.000
I'm selling pay-per-views over here like a motherfucker for you, man.
02:10:30.000
Yeah, but the thing is, they can't control you.
02:10:37.000
See, when you and him started Tangling, your show was not nearly as successful as it is now, which is really kind of funny.
02:10:47.000
Because if he had just buried a hatchet with you back then, you'd be an ally.
02:11:00.000
Like, now the show is bigger than anything that's on ESPN. By far.
02:11:17.000
See, when you don't have a connection to a network, like, it's basically a meritocracy.
02:11:25.000
And the more people tune in, the more fun, the more they like it, the more they enjoy it, the bigger it gets.
02:11:31.000
Where it's not overproduced and someone's in your ear and you've got an agenda.
02:11:36.000
Someone's holding you back and slowing you down.
02:11:47.000
Speaking of which, is Rachel Ostovich going to fight Paige Van Zandt?
02:11:51.000
How many people are going to be watching that fight with their pants off?
02:11:57.000
That's going to be the most pants-off watched fight ever.
02:12:02.000
Like Paige had it on her that it's going to be the hottest fight ever.
02:12:07.000
And Rachel Ostovich is wearing a fucking fur coat in the stare down.
02:12:17.000
When she's all thick like that, she looks so much better.
02:12:28.000
Not only that, his fucking explosive takedown defense, or his submission defense was insane.
02:12:33.000
The way he exploded out of things, I was very impressed.
02:12:45.000
Tenth Planet Jiu Jitsu, black belt, international competitor.
02:12:55.000
Austin Vannaford's an MMA fighter, former wrestler.
02:13:00.000
Posting Instagram pictures naked with his girl.
02:13:02.000
I was like, all right, let me go roll this dude up.
02:13:10.000
The way he tapped him with that head and arm choke, too, he was in half guard.
02:13:17.000
You know, Boogeyman's not going to tap off bullshit.
02:13:21.000
The way he threw him around, too, I was so impressed at how he got out of that arm bar.
02:13:26.000
The way he explodes out of stuff, like, really explosive.
02:13:32.000
But the clampdown on that head and arm choke, and apparently according to Chael, Chael's the one who's doing the commentary in the pay-per-view, he said that that's Austin's favorite submission.
02:13:50.000
Did you see Vinny Magalais refusing to tap, though, and Craig Jones snapped his ankle?
02:14:03.000
But you could see the angle when he's got him in the heel hook, and you could see the angle that his leg is in, where all the pressure's on it, and then you see it go kind of sideways.
02:14:16.000
And Chael's like, what are they saying to each other?
02:14:33.000
And then he's digging on it with another heel hook.
02:14:46.000
And Craig Jones, by the way, one of the very best grapplers on the planet Earth.
02:15:17.000
And that's really dangerous, too, because when you get a break like that, you get infections, you could lose a leg.
02:15:27.000
I mean, he's basically all waiting on his right leg, but his left leg's gone.
02:15:29.000
Think how much that dude's grown since Ultimate Fighter.
02:15:33.000
He got to the finals of that PFL million-dollar thing.
02:15:38.000
By the way, Rory went over to the PFL now, huh?
02:15:51.000
Made it to the finals of the Ultimate Fighter, and he got knocked out by Ryan Bader.
02:15:55.000
And then he went over to that PFL thing, and he got knocked out by that dude that's a sports broadcaster.
02:16:19.000
But then he had success in PFL. He needed time.
02:16:33.000
Especially these days, it's fucking impossible.
02:16:37.000
He did fight in the UFC. Didn't go well for him either.
02:16:43.000
Didn't go bad for him in the UFC, but, you know, he's...
02:16:46.000
You know, he's another guy that's sort of developing on the job.
02:16:54.000
They posted a clip from the Ultimate Fighter 10. I saw that, yeah.
02:17:19.000
I hope they still do the Ultimate Fighter, man.
02:17:31.000
In an interview I saw, he said, Dana said that the Ultimate Fighter is going to be at the Apex Center, along with the fourth fight in two weeks on the 23rd, which I don't think has been announced yet.
02:18:00.000
Chael said that that's the guy who has the hardest time finding submission matches for, is Anthony Smith.
02:18:09.000
Apparently, Anthony Smith's very, very good on the ground.
02:18:57.000
And I was super impressed with him in his last fight.
02:19:35.000
Probably some fucking monster from Norway or some shit.
02:19:45.000
She got the title shot, everyone shit on her, and then they took her off of it?
02:19:51.000
Yeah, they gave her a title shot, and everybody went, boo!
02:19:55.000
The UFC said, alright, my bad, my bad, my bad, my bad.
02:20:21.000
Okay, you got Chito Vera, Marlon Vera versus Sonia Dong.
02:20:32.000
I want to see what Barboza looks like at 45. And I do love that Claude Gigadalia-Angela Hill fight.
02:21:17.000
There's something that happens when he clicks over and he gets those shark eyes.
02:21:48.000
I don't think Joey Diaz would leave the house, but we should get him on one.
02:22:24.000
Especially if I go find the kids coming over here.
02:22:56.000
Burt likes to stay Hollywood, but he likes to lie about it.
02:23:02.000
But if we lock down again, you'd be not so Hollywood, dude.
02:23:05.000
Bro, I'm on some fucking text messages where they are shitting on Jerry Seinfeld's special.
02:23:14.000
Some text message chains that I'm involved in with comics.
02:23:19.000
I saw one said, your special's been on Jerry Seinfeld's.
02:23:37.000
Part of his whole thing was he would do specials, but he would do specials with old material.
02:23:42.000
He doesn't believe in switching an hour all the time.
02:23:46.000
Yeah, but he's probably been running it for 19 years.
02:23:50.000
Because his old specials were of his old material.
02:23:53.000
He's like, new special of my old material, that special I've done before.
02:24:05.000
If you go to Malibu, the market there, him and his boy Spike are out there all the time.
02:24:11.000
And they do a podcast of just Porsches out there.
02:24:19.000
Comics love when other comics have questionable specials.
02:24:25.000
I don't think I've ever heard a comic go, dude, have you seen this special?
02:24:30.000
Every comic wants to go, dude, oh, that's terrible.
02:24:34.000
There's a lot of comics that enjoy when someone, especially someone that's not in their circle, has a bad special.
02:24:47.000
I think one of the reasons his special was like the number three most watched thing in America.
02:24:52.000
If you get tore right now, you're talking about a different level.
02:24:54.000
And I think one of the reasons he gets hate is his demo is similar to mine.
02:25:01.000
And that's where you're going to get a lot of hate, man.
02:25:06.000
So for him, I was like, dude, I know you're coming out special.
02:25:19.000
But I don't think he gives a flying fuck in his mansion in Bel Air, you know?
02:25:33.000
I had someone run my account when my Switch came in.
02:25:39.000
You know when things are good and you know when things are not good.
02:25:42.000
Just when things are bad, use that as fuel to make the next things better and keep moving.
02:25:57.000
I want to see what people do when this is over.
02:25:59.000
What it's going to be like watching someone's first set in three months.
02:26:09.000
It's not going to be like, yeah, Tim's like, he's basically doing stand-up with his rants.
02:26:18.000
I think that it's going to be interesting because everyone is going to be stale.
02:26:24.000
It's not going to be like most, like, if you go to the store and you're on the lineup and you haven't done stand-up in three months, everybody else is doing it every night.
02:26:39.000
This way, there's not going to really be a contrast.
02:26:42.000
It's going to be everyone seems slow and clunky.
02:26:45.000
I bet people are going to be gung-ho to see the first day back.
02:26:57.000
I mean, when the first day opens, when the comedy store opens, if I'm home that day, I'm on stage.
02:27:04.000
And also, I want to give all the money to the waiters and the waitresses.
02:27:24.000
They got fucked over by this thing, because they're the people that are really paycheck to paycheck, and then this thing just dries up on them.
02:27:32.000
I think every comic, I think people at the Comedy Store, and comics on the road, and everything, it's just gonna make us appreciate it so much more, and you have such a more respect for it, and I take it for granted.
02:27:44.000
I think there's light at the end of the tunnel for everybody, man.
02:27:47.000
I hope so, but this fucking governor needs to open this shit up, let people take their own chances.
02:27:55.000
Dude, when they gave me a ticket on my fucking bike in the middle of nowhere, I was listening to Rage Against the Machine.
02:28:00.000
I wanted to fucking start a protest at Governor Newsom's house.
02:28:04.000
I was this close to fucking organizing one for a $60 ticket.
02:28:11.000
They're going crazy now in, like, Huntington Beach and Newport and all those places where they're protesting.
02:28:18.000
On the video, the guy goes, Bill Gates is the devil!
02:28:22.000
He's saying all these things that seem like they kind of make sense, and then he goes, Bill Gates is the devil!
02:28:36.000
I don't know if he's the devil, but he's a little over...
02:28:46.000
Because you and I had obviously a friendly bet, and you were like, I hope you're right.
02:28:50.000
Because when Governor Newsom went, beaches are closed, and then we have this text chain with you, me, and Cal and Eddie, and I go, dude, I'm telling you, people aren't going to put up with it.
02:29:10.000
But I think that, you know, I think that we need more of those protests for things to really change.
02:29:18.000
They keep saying, like, apparently they're suing the governor of Michigan.
02:29:25.000
Michigan, that lady, she's trying to extend everything.
02:29:31.000
They go, we're going to start fining people for this, this, and this.
02:29:35.000
But the sheriff who goes, we're not going to do that.
02:29:43.000
It shows you really, if people really don't give a fuck, the government can't do shit.
02:29:47.000
It's real close to people turning on him because so many people are losing their jobs.
02:30:01.000
You can have a certificate that shows you've been tested.
02:30:06.000
I'll walk around with a fucking t-shirt that says, I'm good.
02:30:17.000
Fat guy, security guard at the coffee place, back off, bro.
02:30:32.000
I'm trying to remember the state because I just saw it last night.
02:30:39.000
And people who snitched, their names got put out.
02:30:44.000
They're afraid that people are going to find out that they snitched.
02:30:57.000
That our fucking governor came out and said, snitch on these people?
02:31:04.000
Mayor of LA. But the thing is, it's not what we thought it was.
02:31:07.000
If it was killing people left and right, like some horrible plague...
02:31:11.000
And, you know, we really do have to stay in home and lock down because there's a demon out there, an invisible demon.
02:31:33.000
To find out if people would tell and try to take his power, I think, is what I was reading.
02:31:39.000
Do you remember Stitches, the rapper that had the big stupid tattoo on his face?
02:31:46.000
I mean, he's not as popular as he probably was three years ago.
02:32:11.000
Well, he doesn't have anywhere to go right now, so it's not that expensive.
02:32:25.000
Now, did they let him out because they let him out, or did they let him out because of COVID? Both.
02:32:32.000
He was going to have maybe eight more months, so they just let him out and finished the rest of his time at home.
02:32:36.000
Dude, they're letting out so many people from jail that should be in jail for the rest of their life.
02:32:44.000
For this COVID? Are you out of their goddamn mind?
02:32:51.000
I think people prepared and were anticipating something that was way more horrible.
02:32:58.000
They can't go back because they don't want to look stupid.
02:33:00.000
Like Governor Newsom, like, oh, fuck, now I look like an asshole.
02:33:04.000
I think that's the same thing with that woman who's the governor of Michigan.
02:33:09.000
It's the same thing, who's getting sued by the House.
02:33:12.000
She's getting sued by people in her own state because they're like, hey, you don't have the authority to do this.
02:33:18.000
And she's saying, I'm going with science and statistics.
02:33:26.000
But the thing is, she's on a short list of people that, for the vice presidency with Biden, that's what it is.
02:33:36.000
You got this rape allegation now, and then you also can't speak?
02:33:57.000
He can't talk, and it's like the allegations and the fact that people are showing such a fucking unbridled hypocrisy by supporting him while they were against all these other guys that were accused of sexual impropriety.
02:34:14.000
They want their team to win, and that's what they're showing.
02:34:19.000
It's believe all women if they're accusing a man that you don't like.
02:34:23.000
I can't believe Trump and Biden are the best we got.
02:34:27.000
It's because the smart people don't run for president.
02:34:45.000
He's being a real bitch about this COVID stuff.
02:34:47.000
He's like, I don't think the NBA should be back.
02:34:51.000
Yeah, I think his mom's like 900 years old, so he's worried she's going to get it.
02:34:59.000
It's like that Hollywood actor, that Indian guy who's in the Marvel movie, who's just preaching from the mountains.
02:35:07.000
Like, we're going to open up and this is going to get worse.
02:35:16.000
He's just saying because his wife has an underlying condition, so he's worried about that, which I get, dude, from a personal standpoint.
02:35:28.000
I'm sure a little bit of that, but there's also a little bit of virtue signaling where people are saying things that they know that the enlightened, thoughtful people are supposed to say, and then they get support online.
02:35:39.000
Oh, look at all these people who agree with me.
02:35:43.000
Hope I'm in fucking Spider-Man 9. Thank you for saying this.
02:35:59.000
It's interesting to see that obesity is the number one factor in people in New York City.
02:36:05.000
Because all these people that want to think that it's okay to be obese, it's fine.
02:36:16.000
And then COVID comes and goes, oh, this is too easy.
02:36:18.000
And then if this doesn't scare your fat ass into shape...
02:36:20.000
But do you think that people, like with all this fat shaming mentality out there, that people will, that the government or someone, public health, will step up and have some sort of a public health campaign saying, look, folks, you've got to lose weight.
02:36:40.000
I would love to see that and see what the people freak out about it and all the people that try to counter it with emotions and bullshit.
02:36:53.000
Yeah, I don't know what you're going to do, man.
02:37:01.000
It was a video of kids in the 70s in a gym class.
02:37:05.000
These kids were all in fucking phenomenal shape.
02:37:14.000
I know I'm a little thick, but I'm in shape, dude.
02:37:21.000
You go to high school now, every kid gets a letter from his mom.
02:37:29.000
Billy gets anxiety when you make him run a mile.
02:37:44.000
One thing that we saw from this is that there's so many people that don't know how to deal with any sort of adversity.
02:37:53.000
I have people who I used to talk to And when this thing came out, we're just going to bunker down, and I think the comedy store is going to be closed in 2022, and we're not going to be on the road anymore.
02:39:00.000
You ever watch CNN? You would think the world's on fire.
02:39:22.000
That's where I saw it from, but it's on Newsweek.
02:39:25.000
Coronavirus survivors permanently disqualified from joining U.S. military recruitment memo suggests.
02:39:32.000
Tim said, what does the Pentagon know that we don't know?
02:39:45.000
I mean, if they show that you can completely 100% recover from coronavirus, that doesn't make any sense.
02:39:52.000
I think that memo is probably in response to this idea that it could be a reoccurring infection.
02:40:05.000
Those who have tested positive for COVID-19 are no longer eligible for military service.
02:40:13.000
During the screening process, a reported history of confirmed COVID-19 will be an annotated Consider disqualifying.
02:40:29.000
Yeah, that could shift back and forth, and that's probably just fear-mongering.
02:40:35.000
Cuomo came up on the come-up, right, during this?
02:40:40.000
But, again, if you look back what he did initially...
02:40:45.000
Initially, where New York had their problem was at the old folks' home.
02:40:49.000
And what he did, anybody at the old folks' home who got COVID, he went, unless you're showing symptoms, get back in there.
02:40:56.000
So then they all got it and they all fucking died.
02:41:04.000
Well, I think in the beginning, no one knew exactly what the fuck was going on.
02:41:07.000
I mean, in January, the World Health Organization tweeted out.
02:41:10.000
The World Health Organization, the one that everybody's telling everybody that you have to listen to them.
02:41:15.000
In January, they tweeted out that there's no evidence, according to China, that you catch it person to person.
02:41:27.000
But the other thing is, how about their estimates?
02:41:34.000
But they're saying, well, if we didn't have this lockdown, maybe that would have happened.
02:41:38.000
And then even Como came out and said, what I've realized is if we're doing the lockdown, it's spreading inside the families.
02:41:44.000
He's like, we're kind of fucked up there, so we don't know what to do.
02:41:47.000
There's also the concept of immunity, that your immune system really needs interaction with other people.

I thought their numbers were a little higher than the neighboring countries that did do social distancing in lockdown.
02:42:09.000
All I know is murder wasps are coming right now.
02:42:13.000
Dude, if I have to avoid murder wasps and rattlesnakes, I'd have to stop biking.
02:42:37.000
There's also killer bees that disappeared and came back for a while.
02:42:40.000
But the idea of killer bees is that they would swarm you.
02:42:57.000
These wasps, like, they never called them murder wasps until like two weeks ago.
02:43:09.000
I'm going to call this a murder hornet, by the way.
02:43:10.000
On my picture, I'm going to say I got a murder hornet.
02:43:17.000
When they go, murder hornets hit Washington, I'm like, well, they're coming to Cali, dude.
02:43:22.000
That Coyote Peterson guy, though, that guy got stung by one like two years ago.
02:43:29.000
I don't give a fuck what's out in other parts of the world.
02:43:57.000
They were discovered late last year in Washington State.
02:44:04.000
Some asshole probably had them as a pet and they're not even breeding.
02:44:07.000
We're just looking for something to be scared of now.
02:44:17.000
When I saw it, I'm like, ah, fuck, let's quarantine.
02:44:19.000
If that becomes an issue, like they start flying into people's houses and stinging people.
02:44:23.000
One of the two was found dead, and the other one flew off, so...
02:44:32.000
That's what their story says in CBS? Goddammit.
02:44:45.000
Someone's got to be scared of something or angry.
02:44:52.000
In Japan, they hunt them where insects are hunted and eaten.
02:45:00.000
There's a shitload of people die by rattlesnakes.
02:45:08.000
Dude, I send you guys the picture every day of a rattlesnake.
02:45:16.000
The very first one I found, that was an anaconda with a rattler on it, dude.
02:45:20.000
If you look back on it, that snake was so fucking big.
02:45:32.000
As I'm running over it, I realize, oh my god, that's a fucking rattler.
02:45:40.000
But I literally ran over his body and then I realized in the air that it was a rattlesnake.
02:45:48.000
You know what bothers me is I'll see the snake and I'll wait.
02:45:52.000
If I pass people, I know they're coming, I'll wait out front like, rattlesnake, rattlesnake.
02:46:10.000
But when people have their dogs out and they just let them go on the side, that's where the snakes are.
02:46:18.000
But these people let their dogs just go up and down the side.
02:46:26.000
There's so many people that think they just have shit for brains.
02:46:30.000
Dude, one old lady, I see her, she goes the same time I do.
02:46:34.000
She's in shape, tan as fuck, skin like leather, looks like a purse, right?
02:46:38.000
She's fucking, she's going, I go, ma'am, there's a rattlesnake about 10 feet up.
02:46:49.000
Doesn't move, just goes right along the side of it.
02:46:55.000
Probably survived World War II like a rattlesnake.
02:47:07.000
When certain people get to a certain age, I wonder if they do more dangerous shit, like hoping something goes wrong.
02:47:15.000
I don't think he cares about me, but he goes, if my grandsons grow up without a fucking father because you got bit riding that gay bike.
02:47:29.000
If my grandsons grow up without a father, you fucking piece of shit.
02:48:21.000
I'm weirded out doing commentary with no audience.
02:48:28.000
Thick Boy Bike Club merch drops tomorrow, 10 a.m., tfatk.com.
02:48:40.000
