00:00:10.020
We got the vibe, baby, we got that vibe, that attitude.
00:00:15.140
They used to call it attitude, and I'll take them drinks right there.
00:00:19.040
Got me a couple beautiful beverages right here, coming in right now.
00:00:24.780
Premature Nick showing up early with these bevs, boy.
00:00:41.980
Yeah, I got me, sorry, I got to give me a couple nice beverages right here.
00:00:45.880
And I got that green machine or something, whatever they call it.
00:00:49.060
And I got the brown one, too, with the protein in it.
00:00:52.880
So if you hear somebody slizzurping over here, or somebody catching a dram, or somebody just adding to their own human drip over here, that's me.
00:01:07.740
Oh, man, I can't do when my heaven now, my heaven used to be different.
00:01:19.700
And first, let me just let you know where we are.
00:01:28.360
I'm Theo Vaughn, and I'm part of this past weekend.
00:01:32.240
And when I was young, my heaven now, when I was young, heaven was different.
00:01:42.520
The first thing I thought about, honestly, was the food.
00:01:49.700
Because you know, if I'm going all of that way, and I'm dying to even get into the joint,
00:02:01.280
Man, they better have a couple soup du jour's and duge mine, baby.
00:02:11.900
And that's the first thing I thought about when I was a child, when I thought about heaven.
00:02:16.660
I thought, oh, man, they're going to have all the different, you know, you have a breakfast item right here,
00:02:23.080
and you have a little over there, you got an extra chocolate area if you want to run through there and get some chocolate or do that or whatever.
00:02:33.740
You know, I just thought they have spare rib, that kind of stuff.
00:02:36.740
I'd never even had spare rib, but I'd heard about it.
00:02:41.100
And sometimes if you met like a rich man or something like that when you were young and you smelled his breath,
00:02:45.580
you might catch that hit of SR off that bad boy.
00:03:02.200
But that's what I thought about heaven when I thought about heaven.
00:03:05.600
When I was a child, my heaven had all kind of, they had food.
00:03:20.780
And not like, I guess, not like 70% chance of rain or anything like that.
00:03:37.660
Like, probably clouds that were maybe, you know, 400 count or 200 count or at least 80 count.
00:03:54.460
You can feel the quills from the, I don't even know what animal it was.
00:04:03.160
It seemed like they plucked about 2,000 warblers and threw these feathers into the pillow.
00:04:09.720
So, but every, you got to, if you lay in one position, then that quill comes out and gets you.
00:04:20.200
And with no quills and that's when you're like, oh, hell yeah.
00:04:26.260
Now we're living, now we're living, just laying in the Lord's lap, baby, when you get that nice, comfortable pillow.
00:04:35.100
I can't believe people don't have pillows installed around our head or neck.
00:04:44.600
You see somebody with a tattoo, it's nice, it's artistic, it's drawing.
00:04:48.920
But it isn't, you know, it's not, it's not comfortable.
00:04:57.300
If I saw somebody got a pillow sewn into the back of their head, come on, boy, I'd be right.
00:05:12.960
That way, you just got that big, just that, that way anyway, somebody, even if you fall down, you have nothing.
00:05:25.020
There's definitely a beauty, I think, of, you know, I think there's just going to be new things we're going to start doing in the future that we're not doing yet.
00:05:31.580
Where we're taking care, you know, you know, sew a pillow to your head or, you know, add maybe some piping or something on the outside of our knees and legs to give us more sturdy.
00:05:50.020
Run and push someone, I bet you they fall over.
00:05:52.440
Nine out of ten times, if you run and push somebody, that bitch is going down.
00:06:02.820
But then change your game up, change your vibe up.
00:06:05.460
If they, if they, if they got, you know, a couple of pieces of PVC pipe hooked on each leg, baby, who knows what could happen.
00:06:13.000
It might take you a half hour to really bring them down to the ground.
00:06:16.440
So, anyway, just kind of, but, but what was your idea of heaven when you were young, you know, what was it?
00:06:48.540
And somebody would ask, they got to ask for one person.
00:07:00.300
You could, even if you were Randy, you could be like,
00:07:18.720
The dumb phone, and also, if you, if you answered, you didn't want to talk to somebody,
00:07:53.860
And I'm thinking now more nachos, more chicken piccata maybe.
00:08:02.380
Definitely still the dessert, but more of like I would go with a coconut.
00:08:05.680
When I was young, it could be anything, just sugar.
00:08:10.800
Just let me stick my head in it for about 19 seconds.
00:08:18.120
I don't even, I don't care if they just put a bunch of Laffy Taffy under my tongue and punch me right in the mouth.
00:08:25.700
But now when I'm older, I want my heaven to be a little bit more.
00:08:29.260
Or, I don't know, I guess I just want different things in it.
00:08:35.060
I want, you know, I definitely want, I want a lot of people there.
00:08:41.620
And, but honestly, dude, if somebody's real chatty, you could DH them, bro, put them in a different heaven.
00:08:50.060
Because I ain't, when I go to heaven, dude, I ain't doing a ton of listening.
00:09:01.820
So if y'all want to get a different heaven, if they got kind of a more urban heaven or something, then y'all can do that.
00:09:08.440
But my, I'm staying in that low, just kind of mild, maybe a breeze.
00:09:22.460
You know, a breeze that kind of just could also, you know.
00:09:41.800
Like, I just don't want anything real loud in my heaven.
00:09:51.200
I probably won't even be able to judge when I'm in heaven now.
00:10:05.220
That would be really just the biggest piece in my whole heart and brain.
00:10:13.340
Because if you crack me open, dude, you got about a thousand Judy's fallout, bro.
00:10:27.500
Dude, if you saw me at a flavor for ice cream, I'm judgment chocolate chip, papa.
00:10:37.220
But, but also, the judgment of me allowed me to be able to do stand-up comedy.
00:10:48.820
So, there's, you know, it's, that's double sword, man.
00:11:00.300
When you're a kid, a heaven is just, they got animals there, but you could pet them more, I think.
00:11:05.020
They have alligators, but they're not dangerous.
00:11:08.060
You might see an alligator, and he's, you know, if you ask him if he's ever eaten like human, he would, he would tell you.
00:11:15.400
But he would, he wouldn't just tell you in front of everybody.
00:11:17.480
He would kind of whisper to you later or kind of write it on a, you know, maybe on a, on a napkin or something.
00:11:28.600
Say, yeah, I've had a little bit of, you know, you know what I'm saying?
00:11:32.460
I've had a couple Viettes by the river, you feel me?
00:11:36.140
I've had a couple, a couple bad bitches came down by the water.
00:11:44.480
But I think, you know, it's just different now because, what am I talking about, but I don't know.
00:11:50.460
But, yeah, if you have, what was your, did you have a different heaven when you were young as to what your heaven idea is now?
00:11:59.820
You know, now my heaven has more, like, loved ones in it.
00:12:04.080
It's more I think about a little bit of, you know, there's other people I want to make sure everybody, you know, gets in.
00:12:15.220
Anyway, if you ever thought on what your heaven was like as a child, maybe, if you had an idea of heaven and what it's like now.
00:12:24.680
And some people, you don't believe in heaven, that's fine.
00:12:27.220
You out here working, just kind of milling around, baby, that's, it doesn't sound fun to me.
00:12:33.300
I like more of like a, you know, that's, I'm a romantic, you know, I'm a romantic, so.
00:12:41.560
But, what else, just got off the road, man, I'm tired.
00:12:52.540
I could use somebody to just stitch a real big ass pillow to the back of my head, son.
00:13:01.940
But I think we'll see that as the future goes along.
00:13:05.040
We'll see more accoutrements that are built onto us to help us live through the daily day.
00:13:12.000
Because it's amazing, we still have to wear like a SPF to fight the sun.
00:13:17.960
You would think that they would have some sort of an enzyme or something we could just put right into us.
00:13:23.020
An injectable or even like a spare layer of skin that we could just kind of roll on.
00:13:43.940
But then all the ladies will be like, they only want to date guys that have been dipped.
00:13:48.060
And they don't want to see some poor guy that's rubbing, you know, doing it the old way.
00:13:53.380
Just laying that, just that human drywall cream, that SPF.
00:14:09.020
We had a great time traveling over there on the eastern side.
00:14:24.960
And that show had originally been over for Sayersville, where people say stuff and, you know, and that's what they do.
00:14:39.940
We came out with that hot hit right out the gate.
00:14:43.980
And we had a young fella brought out a single mom, Maria.
00:14:58.740
Well, I had a friend of mine, Brittany, brought out her fiancé and her whole family.
00:15:03.340
And they came out and she brought her mother out.
00:15:11.220
A lot of, you know, a little bit of cheetah print.
00:15:14.540
You know, kind of stuff make you really, made me feel real virile.
00:15:22.640
I make a lot of your blood kind of crawl into your, you know, in your extremities, bro.
00:15:35.500
I want to thank everybody that came to that show.
00:15:37.900
And, dude, if, in the winter, if you go through, like, when you're driving along through, like, New Jersey and all of that, a lot of the woods and stuff, there's a lot of factories and woods.
00:15:52.400
So, you could see a factory, like, oh, what are they making?
00:15:56.560
And the guys, like, oh, we make socks over there.
00:16:05.940
Because you see these guys, they're all tough and sweaty and this and that.
00:16:23.660
It's kind of like, damn, what y'all doing there?
00:16:30.040
A lot of sock makers out there that's, it's, you know, not anybody could do it, I guess.
00:16:44.680
They got guys making salve and making, you know, what else?
00:16:51.080
Somebody that worked at a jam factory making jams and jellies.
00:16:58.900
And this dude was so skinny, too, the guy I met.
00:17:02.960
He working over there for Smucker or whatever or some bootleg jam company.
00:17:19.780
You know, some guy working over there, some halfway house jam outfit where they probably got, you know, 12-step meetings in the evening.
00:17:31.200
But, yeah, you know, they just had different factories and people came out.
00:17:36.180
So a lot of beautiful, good people came over there to Red Bank.
00:17:39.600
And actually, we had a call that came in about it.
00:17:57.800
It sounds like something out of the, um, the Greek, you know.
00:18:06.760
You know, we used to have to go, he lived on the mountain.
00:18:10.100
And we had to go up there to get a bag of lightning from him or something.
00:18:13.340
Or get a couple grams of, uh, olives or whatever.
00:18:22.760
I don't know if you've ever been in Minneapolis, man.
00:18:32.760
So now they have a bunch of, tons of little lakes.
00:18:36.380
So you have a lot of fish that got displaced from their families.
00:18:39.220
Because they were swimming over here, looking for something.
00:18:48.800
So if you put your ear up to the water over there, you can really hear a lot of the,
00:18:54.980
You know, you can hear a little bit of the sadness of, um, just kind of what's occurred
00:19:07.620
I saw your February 27th show in Red Bank, New Jersey with my best friend.
00:19:13.780
He and I made an agreement a long time ago that we would see our favorite comedian together
00:19:24.220
A lot of men don't make an agreement like that, I don't think.
00:19:26.700
If we're going to see a, we would see a show if he was near us.
00:19:36.540
After a lot of grinding, we were finally financially stable enough to do that.
00:19:41.980
So I flew out to meet him in the flesh for the second time.
00:19:56.600
So you met him in the flesh for the second time.
00:20:05.700
So I'm thinking, how do you, if you don't, I mean, I guess, yeah, you can have a best friend you don't know.
00:20:14.260
You know, you could have a best friend you don't know.
00:20:17.440
That's a special, you know, that's like almost like, I guess it's like believing in ghosts or something.
00:20:38.840
But no, man, I'm glad you guys were able to piece this together, and I'm glad I could be that glue.
00:20:45.460
I'm glad I could be that secret sauce that brings a couple of mystery bad boys together.
00:21:00.340
And we definitely enjoyed that thick-ass booty.
00:21:06.200
But thank you for an amazing night out with a friend.
00:21:09.560
And thank you for all the dark holds, your soft voice, and magical.
00:21:26.260
You know, this sounds real homoerotic, brother, to be honest with you, at the end.
00:21:31.300
And I'm not really, I'm not judging you, but I'm definitely saying that it's super obvious.
00:21:37.820
If you're not a gay man, then you're surprised.
00:21:45.400
Because people, a lot of people probably think you are.
00:22:25.100
So, if you had to get, if you get out there with another man.
00:22:28.020
Especially in Minneapolis, it's cold out there.
00:22:34.880
You might be fuckin' somebody for a couple months.
00:22:37.960
And then your eyes thaw out and you're like, damn.
00:22:48.420
But, I'm glad you guys were able to make it, buddy.
00:22:58.600
Honestly, dude, if two men wanna meet up and fuck after my show, dude.
00:23:08.120
Y'all wanna be wild and stuff like that and cut the lamps off
00:23:12.700
so you can still see some of that ass meat, bro.
00:23:51.580
And Richmond is a lot of presidents buried there.
00:23:55.760
More presidents buried in Richmond than anywhere else in America.
00:23:58.980
Over there at the Hollywood Cemetery, I believe.
00:24:01.460
And I went there one time, actually, probably seven years ago or something with a comedian.
00:24:30.540
My girlfriend got me the tickets for Christmas.
00:24:32.800
And I've just been looking forward to it all weekend.
00:24:45.560
And me and all these random dudes are just holding our dicks and pissing in some porcelain
00:24:50.280
and just talking about how great the show is and how much we love you.
00:25:18.840
You know, the security at the venue was lackluster, I felt like.
00:25:23.880
One of the security guards, people were hinting me messages later, said that he was asleep
00:25:30.960
So, you know, it was a big, just a, you know, it was just a lot of, I mean, this guy was
00:25:38.600
just a lot of running backs, you know, a lot of skill position players.
00:25:47.840
And, um, so that was a, and it was Ari's least favorite show.
00:25:56.240
He said, of all the places we've ever been, that was his least favorite.
00:25:59.780
Or not least favorite show, but least favorite experience.
00:26:03.040
But, um, but yeah, I just felt bad because the people at the front were so loud.
00:26:08.180
There was some guy who was a complete alcoholic that really wrecked a lot of the show.
00:26:12.080
So, this real selfish dude up by the front, honestly, and I know I'm kind of, you know,
00:26:19.840
You know, like, kind of like, nah, I don't, maybe I should, but also fuck the guy.
00:26:31.380
And, and that was just a tough one for me, Ben.
00:26:40.160
If, if, and it was some, some guy in the front dressed like the Wolf of Wall Street.
00:26:44.620
Like the, no, like American, um, like Christian Bales in, what is it?
00:26:56.120
Where he throws a liquor on the lady in the bathtub and he's a murderer.
00:27:09.940
But, yeah, I just, um, they had two extremely drunk women in the front.
00:27:20.840
But, what's important is, I felt like everybody in the back had a blast.
00:27:24.560
And the people right in the front, it was really hard for them to stay involved.
00:27:36.480
Um, but it's just tough sometime at the venue when you gotta police the crowd so much.
00:27:41.660
And you, then you can't focus on your, on doing the, on being entertaining.
00:27:49.740
I'm glad you and them fellas was in there holding y'all's meat.
00:27:58.680
Damn, this, uh, this episode, we really, maybe everybody's gay, bruh.
00:28:07.540
I don't know, man, but, and look, I think especially like Minneapolis, if it gets cold enough, man, that's not gay, really.
00:28:23.820
If it's two degrees and Steven and Wallace suddenly are having sex, are they gay men or are they doing their best because it's cold?
00:28:47.020
But that was very sweet of your girl to get you those tickets and I'm glad that you had a great time, man.
00:28:56.940
And, and it just, the staff at the venue, that just wasn't, honestly, I thought they did a shitty job.
00:29:12.060
All right, we got a Patreon question came in right here.
00:29:21.780
BetterHelp will assess your needs and match you with your own licensed professional therapist.
00:29:33.400
It is professional counseling done securely online.
00:29:44.340
My mother texted me the other day and she said, that's what she just kind of said.
00:29:51.220
We'd been having a conversation about stuff and she said, we, you know, we all need help sometimes.
00:29:55.040
And man, it just really, that really resonated with me.
00:30:03.040
If you don't have therapy or counseling in your area, or you afraid to go see one, you think it's lame, you think it's gay, bro, you think it's this or that, then this is an option.
00:30:22.800

And this episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.
00:31:12.920
I think it's easier to get help, but it's hard to say it almost sometimes.
00:31:20.640
You know, there's a story about they had this man, Ronald Ochsner, I think was his name.
00:31:30.140
And there's a hospital down in New Orleans called Ochsner.
00:31:33.900
And they spell it some way that it's impossible that you would ever know how to pronounce it unless somebody told you.
00:31:44.820
That's why Louisiana is so special, because if you want to know something about it, some of the words and this and that are so confusing, you got to hear it firsthand from somebody.
00:31:59.360
Is there's so much mystery hidden in the way that they put the wording together.
00:32:02.740
That you have to have somebody explain it to you or somebody to be there to help you experience it.
00:32:12.600
And that's what gives it its core, really, of connection and tourism and stuff like that that you find there in Louisiana.
00:32:19.280
But this man, Ron Ochsner, he was a doctor, famous doctor.
00:32:27.740
Like if you saw somebody that was doing well, they're like, wow, man, how are you doing so well?
00:32:34.400
And he started a hospital and he was like the smartest doctor.
00:32:40.100
And one day he was at a convention and they was serving, they had London broil as the premier meet at the, I thought, at the function, luncheon, function, luncheon, the luncheon.
00:33:04.960
He started choking on a piece of that broil, you know, just that hot.
00:33:10.560
Just a hot tri-tip was just really, really trying him.
00:33:16.780
And he went in the bathroom and choked to death at a convention of doctors because he was too embarrassed to check in and see what was up.
00:33:27.440
He was too embarrassed to just say to somebody else.
00:33:36.480
But just a reminder that, yeah, sometimes we need help.
00:33:39.160
And sometimes the hardest part is to ask for it.
00:33:42.700
Like if somebody would have walked in on him and seen him struggling, he'd have said, yeah, yeah, yeah, I need help.
00:33:50.620
But to go out and present yourself as something that is not, that's imperfect or that isn't perfect, you know, that's the, that's really the, that's one of the real toughest points.
00:34:04.680
It's just that, just surrendering and saying, yes, help me.
00:34:40.360
And I know he does Hangover Candle Company and they've supplied us with so many candles and I want to say thank you, Joey, for those.
00:34:49.700
And he said, Theo, you stay so busy and give us so much content.
00:34:52.960
When is there a bit of extra time just for yourself?
00:34:57.840
Well, honestly, I wasn't even going to do this episode today.
00:35:05.920
And we came in because we didn't, we didn't, we didn't need it for ads because we have a guest episode this week with Chris DiStefano tomorrow and TJ Miller coming up.
00:35:16.680
So if you have any questions for those guys, hit the hotline or send us a video through the website, a video question.
00:35:25.560
Or you can hit up Real Nick Davis on Instagram and ask him how to send a video question for either one of those guys.
00:35:38.680
I'm going to try to focus more on my AA program now that I have, now that a lot of the big touring is over.
00:35:46.680
But I started playing chess the other day on my computer.
00:35:52.820
Actually, not the other day, maybe about two weeks ago.
00:35:57.500
It's just me against the computer and it's just regular level.
00:36:03.360
You know, I like just, I want my brain to think about other stuff than work.
00:36:17.620
You know, I'm going to Maui this weekend to do a show and then I'm going to relax and work on meditation and go to some AA meetings.
00:36:25.000
And, yeah, I just, sometimes it's like you, and I don't think of it as giving myself, but you, yeah, there's so much output that I don't even know what's going on inside of myself sometimes.
00:36:38.640
Um, so I want to do some kind of just human accounting and balance the books inside of myself a little.
00:36:47.500
And I hope to focus on a little bit of that more as the future comes along, uh, soon now.
00:36:53.820
Another question we have here, uh, Michelle Mildred from Patreon said, do you have bougie requests for snacks or decor in your green room?
00:37:06.760
If not, if you could have a dream green room set up, what would be in there?
00:37:10.720
Like if you were an insanely big rock band, like the Stones or like Chris D'Elia.
00:37:18.480
What would you require to be in there before you go to your green room?
00:37:23.820
Well, I don't know if I would hear, I, I, I, well, Chris D'Elia, probably it's easy for him to have whatever he wants in his green room.
00:37:41.920
If you don't know that about him, when he was born, there was everything there, snacks.
00:37:47.840
Oh, little pictures of milk and different types of milk.
00:37:58.320
Cause that's how Chris, when he came into the world, somebody said he came out of a couple of vaginas.
00:38:07.820
That's how we, you know, cause then fancy boys, that's how they present them to the world.
00:38:12.440
They come out of one vagina and then another one, another one.
00:38:19.220
But you know me, boy, I had a fricking elbow crawl, dude.
00:38:28.680
They had half a Winston on the way out of my mother's son.
00:38:39.140
She said, well, going home, I'll meet you home.
00:38:50.200
Get in a fight with a big sister if you need, whatever you need.
00:39:08.300
But yeah, in different green rooms, different things,
00:39:24.760
And coffee, but I think I might be allergic to coffee.
00:39:43.980
You know, sometimes we don't want it to show up,
00:39:53.840
than when I was uncertain if I wanted to or not
01:06:12.360
Every night looking so right, just so tight, sell it, make them day.
01:06:20.320
Keeping time on your wrist, checking that list, looking to assist with another man's fantasy.
01:06:29.100
So you take another choke, line into a coat, do it till you're broke to escape reality.
01:07:22.440
Wiping black tears, getting ready for the next in line
01:07:34.120
Not to mention you crave attention and it comes easy
01:09:31.040
Sorry, sir, but our ice cream machine is broken
