00:02:56.560 My name is Theo.
00:02:57.220 I'm a human being.
00:03:01.340 Happy just checking in.
00:03:02.500 What's been going on recently?
00:03:09.720 I've been feeling pretty good recently, you know, honestly.
00:03:14.980 It's a little scary.
00:03:17.880 You know, I get a little scared sometimes when I think when things are going well or when things
00:03:24.940 are feeling good, it's like, you know, I kind of, I don't know how to handle it.
00:03:36.320 I think there's a little part of me that feels like, oh, well, you don't deserve it or there's,
00:03:39.760 it's not, something's wrong.
00:03:41.620 I think I'm just so used to the feelings inside of me over the years not being good ones that I'm, that those are the footprints I still, I'm, those are the footprints I continue to walk in.
00:03:58.900 You know?
00:04:02.280 And so, only recently have I felt like I'm kind of making some new shapes in the mud.
00:04:10.200 I mean, things are kind of going okay.
00:04:12.280 And yeah, it's just such a foreign, it's just been foreign to my life to feel okay. 0.60
00:04:24.880 It's been foreign to me.
00:04:26.480 Um, and sometimes there's a part of me that doesn't want to, that doesn't want to be, it doesn't, that doesn't want to feel okay.
00:04:37.320 If I'm real honest, um, there's a part of me that always wants to have something wrong.
00:04:45.540 There's a part of me that always wants to be able to look at the world or look at myself or look at my past and say, I told you so, you know, um,
00:05:15.540 so it's, it's scary almost to be like, I think everything's kind of okay.
00:05:29.700 Cause it feels kind of new.
00:05:33.400 Um, but yeah, I just, I just wanted to kind of check in, uh, with some of just some, you know, I like feelings.
00:05:45.540 I like most of my life.
00:05:48.180 I really have been, um, kind of addicted to my own feelings.
00:05:51.640 I realize, you know, I even notice it when I go to like these recovery meetings and stuff, I'll be in there and people are talking about, uh, being addicted to a drug or an alcohol or something.
00:06:05.360 Over, over the years, I've been addicted a lot of times to my own feelings. 0.99
00:06:08.720 It's like, it's like, I start having a feeling and then I'll start sipping off that bitch. 1.00
00:06:15.760 You know, I start feeling one way and then I'll, I'll, I'll buy an eight ball of my own feelings almost. 0.97
00:06:20.980 I'm like, well, I'm going to better, better do a couple grams of this depression.
00:06:25.200 I'm better, I better do a couple, uh, lines of I'm not enough.
00:06:29.880 I, you know, I can get, I can get that, that my feelings become almost the drug that I'm using.
00:06:40.900 I don't know if that makes any sense.
00:06:42.540 Uh, and that's okay if it doesn't, I'm just, I'm just saying what's going on.
00:06:51.320 Um, but what's up?
00:06:54.040 Nice to see you guys.
00:06:55.200 Nice to be a part of your life today.
00:06:58.460 Um, I'm happy to be alive.
00:07:01.500 Uh, I miss my brother, uh, that I've been thinking about him a lot recently.
00:07:05.700 He's alive.
00:07:06.680 I just miss him.
00:07:08.220 Um, what else? 0.96
00:07:11.540 Uh, I went to the Superbowl the other day, which I can't even believe I'm just saying that so casually, but dang, I, you know, I went to the damn Superbowl, uh, which was fine. 0.98
00:07:26.900 It was good. 0.97
00:07:27.480 It's almost a little, you get, you know, you go to the Superbowl and it's such a business.
00:07:34.680 It's such a corporate deal. 0.80
00:07:36.760 You know, everybody there is, you know, smells like they're a briefcase or, you know, has a, um, business account or something, you know, or is, you know, everybody claims their friends with like, uh, you know, uh, Puff Diddy or Jeff Gordon or some shit or Guy Fieri. 0.76
00:08:00.660 Everybody's like, oh, you know, I got, you know, I got seven autograph, uh, spatulas from Guy Fieri. 0.78
00:08:11.220 I'm like, all right, well, chill out, you know, big daddy or whatever.
00:08:16.240 But it's like, uh, there's a lot, it's, it just feels like a real businessy event so much so that you almost feel bad for the players on the field because it doesn't seem like it's about the game that much.
00:08:32.460 They stop in the game every 30 seconds, they got, they're selling a toaster, they're selling a Nintendo, you know, they got, they put a new, uh, hearing aid and, you know, in big Ricky, the, uh, offensive top, you know, um, tackle.
00:08:52.760 And they're, you know, look at Ricky, you know, Ricky hears his dog for the first time or whatever, you know, Ricky hears a, uh, uh, someone open a Lunchable for the first time ever.
00:09:06.340 You ever hear, you ever see those videos?
00:09:08.200 They'll be like, uh, you know, uh, disabled veteran hears, um, wolf howl or, you know, or native American, uh, disabled native American. 0.92
00:09:21.780 And here's wolf howl for the first time.
00:09:25.100 And they'll have a, uh, they'll have a disabled, uh, NA out there and he's all feathered out or something or he's washing his feet or something and he doesn't know what's going on. 0.99
00:09:36.400 And then they put that earpiece in him and then they show the fucking wolf. 0.89
00:09:42.180 And then the guy like looks up for the first time, you know, 1.00
00:09:45.420 and probably starts jerking off. 0.99
00:09:49.860 I mean, if I, I got it, if I'm, this is no judgment, but if I'm here, if I've never heard anything my whole life and I hear a fucking wolf set it off, dog, I mean, you got a damn, you got a pretty, you got to come soon. 0.99
00:10:05.180 I feel like how, I mean, that's as native and natural as you can get. 0.95
00:10:09.680 Um, but anyway, yeah, it was just very corporate, you know, every 30 seconds they're stopping it and selling something and it just gets real corporate to the point where you're like, you almost, it's hard, it's hard to even pay attention to the game.
00:10:24.300 There's so much going on.
00:10:25.320 Uh, but I felt grateful to be able to go and have that experience.
00:10:29.800 I went down there with, um, with the Raising Cane's with some of them Louisiana boys. 0.88
00:10:36.200 So that was very exciting.
00:10:38.160 Oh, I mean, I just can't believe I got to go to the dang Superbowl.
00:10:41.740 I was sitting there and Caleb Presley was there and, you know, I'm a fan of his and, um, and it was just interesting.
00:10:49.480 You know, and just like, dude, I can't believe I'm at the Superbowl, you know, it was just, I don't know, kind of blew my own mind.
00:10:59.840 Oh, but here was the thing that happened that made the weekend amazing.
00:11:04.860 Uh, I got to meet Drew Brees, man.
00:11:09.560 I got to meet Drew Brees and I was over there with David Spades and y'all know David Spades.
00:11:16.020 Okay.
00:11:16.420 He was one of my heroes and all one of America's heroes. 0.98
00:11:20.680 I mean, he's the damn Davy Crockett of humor. 0.82
00:11:25.940 Um, and he invited me over to a party. 0.99
00:11:30.560 It was a fundraiser.
00:11:32.640 They're raising funds.
00:11:34.020 And, um, so we go there and it's nice.
00:11:37.720 There's like, there's like rich people and somebody's, somebody was like being real rich.
00:11:44.400 And then somebody was next to him and they were, you know, they started crying.
00:11:50.720 And the other person's like, don't cry.
00:11:52.180 You're rich.
00:11:52.800 You know? 0.99
00:11:53.140 So people were just being fucking rich in this place. 0.83
00:11:56.040 And, um, and so we walk up and Blake Shelton is there and I like Blake Shelton, man. 0.90
00:12:05.520 I like Blake Shelton.
00:12:07.840 Um, he is an Oklahoma guy and he, uh, you know, he just sings and he's comfortable, man.
00:12:16.300 And I've met him before and, uh, and I, I, I like him.
00:12:21.620 I like him.
00:12:23.700 So anyway, we walk up, Blake Shelton is playing.
00:12:26.160 It's like, it's like the part in the evening at a party where somebody is playing music.
00:12:29.840 So everybody kind of has to be quiet.
00:12:31.360 And we walk up and there's a guy, Steve Mariucci.
00:12:36.820 Okay.
00:12:37.200 He's a, uh, coach.
00:12:39.700 He's a coach.
00:12:40.520 And I want to say he's Italian.
00:12:41.680 I'm not trying to be racial or anything, but that's Italian, you know, and he looks Italian, 0.97
00:12:49.000 you know, he looks like if you, if you tickle him, he'll fucking just, he'll tell you all 0.94
00:12:54.400 the ingredients of a cannoli, even if he doesn't want to, you know, he just has that, that look 0.67
00:12:59.480 to him and I walk up and he, Steve Mariucci is talking to Drew Brees and I've had dreams
00:13:07.320 in my life, in my head where I'm like, how do you meet?
00:13:10.080 Do you ever meet Drew Brees?
00:13:11.800 Does God want you to ever meet Drew Brees?
00:13:15.300 You know, does mother nature, is there ever another flood?
00:13:19.380 And one of y'all gets flooded right up next to the other one and you get to finally meet.
00:13:25.640 Um, and so there he is.
00:13:28.620 And I, and, and so when you're with David Spade, David Spade can kind of just go up
00:13:32.400 to anybody and like, be like, and people are like happy about it.
00:13:38.640 So I'm just kind of milling around in the distance being like, Hey, look at David Spade.
00:13:44.540 And, um, and so anyway, he walks, the Spade walks up and I'm just kind of like in his shadow,
00:13:50.540 like kind of there, but hiding, but trying to be like confident.
00:13:54.140 Like, okay, how do I, how do I walk up to Drew Brees?
00:13:57.300 You know, do I look like, uh, do I look right at him?
00:14:02.000 Do I kind of look, you know, at the moon?
00:14:05.000 Like, well, you know, how do you do it?
00:14:07.300 Do I, you know, put my shoulders even?
00:14:09.420 Do I kind of like be like one shoulder is heavier?
00:14:14.500 Do I, what do I do?
00:14:17.300 You know, and I was nervous, man.
00:14:19.180 And so David kind of starts joking and they're both excited to see Spade and they're talking
00:14:25.120 to him and I'm right there.
00:14:25.920 And I know at some point it's coming around that Spade is going to introduce me.
00:14:31.440 So I'm like, what, you know, how do I, how do I look when they, he's like, Hey, this is
00:14:36.860 the, and I'm like, do I smile?
00:14:38.700 Do I, so I don't know what to do.
00:14:41.560 So I opened my mouth, right?
00:14:42.960 Which is insane.
00:14:43.820 I think that's an insane, you know, you're me.
00:14:47.880 Okay.
00:14:48.300 That guy has his mouth open.
00:14:49.180 And then I put both hands out like this.
00:14:54.400 Like, if, you know, if you ask somebody, how long is something?
00:14:56.660 And I say, Oh, about one foot long.
00:15:00.940 That's what I did.
00:15:01.740 He like, David introduced me to each guy.
00:15:04.640 And I, it was almost like you had given somebody, uh, it was almost like that guy maybe in what's
00:15:13.640 the sport maybe, uh, is that rugby or cricket when the guy does that, you know?
00:15:24.160 Anyway, so I did two hands, I, two hands shaked Mariucci and, and breeze.
00:15:32.620 And so out the gate, I'm like, Oh God, this, you know, I'm not doing that good.
00:15:38.500 Hey, I'm not doing good, you know?
00:15:41.240 And I started just kind of praying for myself.
00:15:44.580 Um, which you're not supposed to do.
00:15:47.240 I know that, you know, you're supposed to pray for others.
00:15:49.860 Uh, but I did, I, I needed, I needed it.
00:15:54.780 And I was right there and I'm like, what do you say?
00:15:56.920 When do you say something?
00:15:58.080 Do you say anything?
00:15:59.560 Who are you?
00:16:00.820 Are you someone that says something soon?
00:16:02.880 Are you not?
00:16:04.340 Do you just listen?
00:16:05.940 Do you laugh?
00:16:07.240 How loud do you laugh?
00:16:08.580 Do you laugh?
00:16:09.520 You don't want to sound like a fake, you know?
00:16:11.440 Uh, so anyway, I'm just being alive and, um, and breeze is dialed in, bro.
00:16:22.480 When you're talking to him, he's like, you can see in his eye, bro.
00:16:26.860 He could play for, I think another, I think he could play for another 20 months in the NFL.
00:16:35.920 Well, he's just, he's so locked in.
00:16:39.680 Like you're talking to him and you can see he's watching like where the waiters and the
00:16:44.200 bus boys are going.
00:16:45.900 You know, he can see the, um, you know, that one of the waiters is running an out route to
00:16:51.700 go on a smoke break.
00:16:52.720 He can see that the bus boy did a curl, but you know, short of the sticks you can.
00:16:57.700 I mean, he's like, he's caught, you know, he's got an audible, he's got Colston going,
00:17:03.480 but there's everything he's, he is monitoring everything while you're there talking to him.
00:17:09.020 He is dialed in.
00:17:11.460 He is dialed into life and you don't even know if drew breeze blinks.
00:17:17.100 That's how much he, he blinks when you blink, he sees you blink.
00:17:21.620 So that's when he, that's when he blinks, he ain't missing a moment.
00:17:26.460 He's locked in.
00:17:27.740 And it was interesting because, um, I asked him, I said, Hey, did you guys ever play against
00:17:34.240 each other?
00:17:34.640 Him and, um, Mariucci.
00:17:36.980 Right.
00:17:38.200 And, uh, and breeze was like, yeah, we sure did.
00:17:41.240 And, and if he rattled off the date, he rattled off the score.
00:17:45.740 Um, and if you could just, I mean, he is just an anthology of, uh, of precision is kind
00:17:58.580 of how I would describe as much as I got to, you know, I, I, I got, I got to talk with them
00:18:02.420 for maybe about 10 minutes total and maybe a 90 seconds.
00:18:09.280 I could kind of feel my arms and legs, uh, while I was doing it.
00:18:13.320 Um, so a lot of time I was just pretending to, you know, have a stable, um, uh, what's it
00:18:22.260 called when they, oh, pulse.
00:18:25.340 So anyway, that's a lot about Drew Brees, but, um, we're going to take some calls that
00:18:30.180 came in from you guys.
00:18:31.900 Um, what else I'm going to, I got to meet, Oh, I got to meet, I know I'm name dropping
00:18:39.420 man, but I'm just was so like, uh, George Kittle and I'd seen like videos, George Kittle
00:18:47.960 and, but he, there's that, it's like, it's a me, he, there is, uh, I don't even know it.
00:19:04.040 It's, you got, it's George Kittle is, um, he is an interesting guy.
00:19:10.980 He's got his energy.
00:19:12.760 He shows up at a level where you're like, Oh, I didn't know they had this level, you know?
00:19:18.580 Um, but he was very kind.
00:19:20.960 I'm, I'm friends with his sister, Emma, uh, Kittle, who is a yoga instructor and she's, uh,
00:19:26.600 really incredible.

00:22:26.780 I don't know what to share with you.
00:22:29.280 I don't know what to, um, you know, the whole time I was talking to Drew Brees, I could see
00:22:37.620 him just, he was always every now and then he would glance in the distance and just see
00:22:44.600 if Devery Henderson was open.
00:22:45.900 That's all.
00:22:48.420 That's all I'm going to say about that.
00:22:49.760 Um, the news, man, let's get into a little bit of news.
00:22:53.440 The Ohio, uh, train derailment, a train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio prompted an array of
00:23:00.960 false and misleading claims on social media.
00:23:02.780 You know that, um, a Norfolk Southern train left the tracks while traveling from Madison,
00:23:09.240 Illinois to Conway, Pennsylvania, uh, residents were ordered to evacuate and evacuation is
00:23:17.120 hard.
00:23:18.400 It seems like easier.
00:23:19.680 You get in your car, truck or camper and drive, but where do you go?
00:23:24.800 Traffic is full.
00:23:26.680 You know, if you don't have gas already, then you have to go wait for gas first.
00:23:30.380 So then you're at the pump, you're pumping gas and you're huffing gas because the, the,
00:23:36.420 the atmosphere is filled with it.
00:23:40.180 And then there's all kinds of rumors that, you know, that how it got burned off.
00:23:43.780 Some people say that the government showed up and did it. 0.98
00:23:45.760 Some people say there were just, uh, you know, a couple of damn Browns fans or, or, uh, Steelers 1.00
00:23:51.740 fans firing, um, fireworks into it and shit blew it all up. 0.99
00:23:57.600 I mean, you can't keep a gas in the air, you know, in some of these areas without somebody 0.99
00:24:06.880 lighting it, you know, even if you're at a party and you fart, somebody will run over
00:24:11.340 there and light it.
00:24:12.060 If you're in Cleveland, I mean, who, you know, who are we kidding?
00:24:19.440 You know, so I'm not shocked that it got lit up.
00:24:24.200 I think a lot of people are freaked out.
00:24:26.060 They had a man yelling at the sky.
00:24:30.620 I'll tell you this, the whole thing was better than any M night Shyamalan movie I've seen in 0.98
00:24:34.920 fucking 10 years. 0.83
00:24:37.800 Has anybody been given more opportunities than that guy? 0.99
00:24:42.020 Um, then you have all these people with their home values.
00:24:45.140 Now they're scared that they have no equity in their homes, but just because of the fear
00:24:49.380 of this and you don't know, you know, we live in a space now where we expect things to be
00:24:56.980 done quickly.
00:24:58.400 We're so you, you see something on the internet, you see, okay, this should be solved right now.
00:25:02.680 And in some ways it should, there should be like task force should be sent to help.
00:25:08.940 You know, there should be plans in place for things.
00:25:12.220 Um, but the speed of life is not the same as the speed of the internet, the speed of social
00:25:18.620 media.
00:25:19.080 You know, it's easy for somebody to be like, help these people.
00:25:24.040 Right.
00:25:24.440 And I even do it on Twitter.
00:25:25.480 The other day I shared something.
00:25:26.520 It was like, where are the, uh, like transportation head of transportation.
00:25:33.380 Where is the Norfolk Southern people?
00:25:36.360 Like just trying to, I guess I'm just rattling the cage, but yeah, you wonder like how, how
00:25:44.500 do these people start to feel okay when they go to like a town hall meeting and they're
00:25:50.080 just yelling at a mayor and he doesn't know.
00:25:55.560 Um, but it's scary.
00:25:58.540 You know, the rail system has been, we've done a horrible job in America of taking care
00:26:02.920 of our rail system.
00:26:04.160 I've taken care of our postal system. 0.99
00:26:09.260 Eeps, dude, I would rather give my shit, dude, more people, the rail system. 0.98
00:26:14.180 First of all, more people are going on Hogwarts train than on any Amtrak. 0.99
00:26:25.300 That's a fact.
00:26:26.240 More people are lining up for Hogwarts.
00:26:29.200 So I don't know.
00:26:30.820 It's just heartbreaking.
00:26:31.640 Man, you see that out there.
00:26:32.560 These people got derailed and a lady, it says right here, throwing rock and water.
00:26:36.700 And she looks insane, this lady. 1.00
00:26:40.660 And she's saying, look at all the chemicals in the water. 0.99
00:26:44.360 Yeah, but that's just damn water too, lady. 1.00
00:26:46.980 I mean, I know it's bad over there. 0.99
00:26:48.300 If you're over there, hit it, hit the hotline.
00:26:50.240 Let us know.
00:26:50.900 985-664-9503.
00:26:57.180 But I think a lot of this falls back on, do you feel like your country cares anymore?
00:27:02.260 Do you feel like, I think we're living, we're getting into a space where people do not feel 0.66
00:27:06.760 supported by their country.
00:27:11.500 They don't feel like there's this, they're always used to feel like this texture behind
00:27:17.140 us that our country was unified and supporting us and looking out for the regular man and
00:27:24.540 woman and the child who was getting a pail of clean water in East Palestine, as opposed 0.99
00:27:32.180 to the big business, you know, big chloride or whoever spilled all this shit. 0.99
00:27:39.800 And then now you got a lady. 0.99
00:27:50.000 And the water looks...
00:27:51.060 Wow.
00:27:52.900 Look at all that.
00:27:53.620 Look at it.
00:27:54.520 It's all in the bottom of the creek bed.
00:27:58.660 Yeah.
00:28:00.820 I mean, you don't know also, they could have, we don't know, you don't know a video. 0.98
00:28:04.880 Somebody, this thing could be right outside of a Pep Boys and they've been spilling shit 0.96
00:28:08.000 back in there for years. 0.99
00:28:08.840 I'm not denying it.
00:28:10.340 I'm just saying that who knows.
00:28:11.720 But yeah, there'll be shrimp coming out of here probably a decade from now wearing a 0.99
00:28:16.680 fucking top hat. 0.99
00:28:18.100 You'll have a, you know, in a neck brace. 1.00
00:28:20.100 It's all going to be bad. 1.00
00:28:21.760 Newborn babies come out with fucking, you know, in with neck braces on their knees. 1.00
00:28:27.900 It's going to, who knows? 1.00
00:28:29.440 Who knows what's going to happen?
00:28:32.060 A lot of, you know, they're going to have a lot of young women that look like Rob Gronkowski 1.00
00:28:36.380 probably.
00:28:37.040 Who knows?
00:28:37.360 We don't know.
00:28:39.780 But we're there with you in spirit.
00:28:42.560 What else can we be?
00:28:44.340 That's all we can be right now.
00:28:45.820 All right.
00:28:48.500 As some of you guys know, Kai the Hitchhiker, who is a notorious figure in entertainment,
00:28:59.820 I guess.
00:29:01.280 He's a homeless or not homeless. 0.94
00:29:04.500 Because he's a vagabond. 0.96
00:29:06.760 He is a tumbleweed with a with a with a bit of violence that surrounds him. 0.99
00:29:15.480 That's all I'll say.
00:29:16.500 He filed a lawsuit against me for a tick tock clip that was put up or Instagram clip that
00:29:28.000 I didn't create that I shared.
00:29:29.760 And I wanted to talk with my buddy, Dan Morgan, over at the Morgan and Morgan attorney firm at
00:29:38.800 the Morgan and Morgan law firm and see what the deal was.
00:29:43.860 So let's let's make that call now if we can.
00:29:49.780 Hello, this is Dan.
00:29:51.380 Hey, Dan, man.
00:29:52.520 What's up, bud?
00:29:52.920 It's Theo.
00:29:54.400 Hey, man.
00:29:54.840 What's going on?
00:29:55.440 Uh, well, I sent you, you know, I got served.
00:29:59.520 Um, I want to talk about the Kai the Hitchhiker thing.
00:30:03.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
00:30:04.560 I got those documents.
00:30:05.860 I reviewed them actually over the weekend.
00:30:07.600 Yeah, man.
00:30:08.280 Is so is it a real?
00:30:09.920 Uh, is it a real thing?
00:30:11.520 Like, is it?
00:30:13.360 I'm just I guess I'm kind of I don't know.
00:30:16.420 You know, I guess I'm scared.
00:30:17.980 I'm yeah, I'm scared about I don't know what to do.
00:30:21.120 It is real in the sense that he did file it.
00:30:24.220 He did make some claims.
00:30:25.920 He's currently incarcerated.
00:30:27.920 I believe in New Jersey, it seemed that he kind of learned the law a little bit and drafted
00:30:33.500 up this complaint.
00:30:34.400 So it is an actual complaint that did get served in federal court.
00:30:37.520 Um, you know, as far as the merits to it, I don't think there's much there.
00:30:41.000 I think a motion to dismissal kind of cleaning up for you.
00:30:45.520 Okay.
00:30:45.920 Um, so what do I, uh, how, what is he asking for?
00:30:51.420 So he's making some, some pretty egregious claims in there.
00:30:54.100 I mean, he goes into a lot of TMI really about these other cases and there's other, these
00:30:59.140 other legal troubles that's going on.
00:31:00.720 But then he pretty much does some type of algebraic equation that, that gets to a demand
00:31:06.480 request somewhere around $30 million.
00:31:10.800 I think it's around 20, 29,750,000, something around those damages from YouTube and Instagram
00:31:18.780 views.
00:31:19.400 Well, what do I do?
00:31:21.300 I'm just have to work.
00:31:22.360 I mean, do I have to work forever or what?
00:31:24.720 I mean, it sounds like he's claiming you've already made this money.
00:31:27.420 So the question is, what have you done with all that money?
00:31:30.820 Dude, what is he talking about? 0.97
00:31:32.240 Dude, I fucking have a, I drive a Ford Ranger. 0.98
00:31:35.580 He's saying you made all this money off using this, uh, this deep fake of him. 0.99
00:31:40.020 You've, you've, you've stolen his, uh, his valor, so to speak.
00:31:43.920 I didn't make it.
00:31:45.220 You've stolen his name.
00:31:46.780 Sorry.
00:31:47.360 It's a mother.
00:31:48.500 Oh, no, you're all good.
00:31:49.580 Yeah.
00:31:49.700 He has this whole outlandish theory that you have a, a fake identity daughter account where
00:31:56.260 you made this, but then repurpose it to then, to then, uh, post on your YouTube and without
00:32:02.260 having to be the point person that he could go after.
00:32:04.820 Wow.
00:32:05.300 It's like a 30 page manifesto complaint.
00:32:10.020 He, he's, he's, he's doctored up from, uh, from this federal penitentiary.
00:32:16.060 So is this, so, so what, when do I, how long do you, when do I need to, when do I need to
00:32:22.400 do something?
00:32:23.400 So it looks like he got, like, he served about eight days ago or so.
00:32:28.040 Like, uh, you got 21 days per, per federal civil procedure.
00:32:31.980 So, you know, just, just an answer pretty much saying, you know, this is a bogus
00:32:36.080 lawsuit, a motion to, to dismiss and a judge should just, just throw it out for you.
00:32:41.600 But you do have to kind of make sure you get those timelines done or else there could be
00:32:45.000 a default judgment where old Kyle could get a check from Theo for 30 million.
00:32:50.220 Well, he's never, I don't know where he would cash it.
00:32:53.280 That's the thing.
00:32:54.780 Uh, I think my ticket.
00:32:58.740 Um, okay.
00:32:59.920 So what do you, do you, does, uh, does y'all's law firm help with that?
00:33:04.180 Or is that something I need to do?
00:33:06.340 That's something that I can help you get, get to the right person to do.
00:33:09.140 You know, we're, we're, we're more of a plaintiff's type firm.
00:33:11.280 We don't want to do this defense work, but I can definitely get you in the right hands
00:33:13.700 out there with a California, uh, federal attorney, get this thing cleaned up for you.
00:33:18.300 Okay.
00:33:19.220 Jesus, dude.
00:33:20.620 Yeah.
00:33:21.040 I mean, I, um, and is this, is this going to be like a thing that happens in the world?
00:33:26.840 Because this was a, uh, deep fake that I didn't have anything to do with.
00:33:30.620 I mean, obviously I repurposed it and put it out and I think it, I thought it was funny
00:33:35.240 and entertaining.
00:33:36.580 So I don't know if there is some responsibility there.
00:33:39.820 I don't know.
00:33:41.400 Exactly.
00:33:41.920 And when you kind of sent this over to me, I kind of started doing some research and
00:33:44.820 it's obviously that's popping up more and more now with technology getting as it is.
00:33:49.440 So you can just really put in any video with any picture and it turns it out, but, you
00:33:53.780 know, pretty much it falls under some copyright exceptions where, where it's parody.
00:33:57.380 It's an ultimate defense.
00:33:58.580 So, um, you know, it's, it's art, it's parody.
00:34:01.200 It's not meant to be real.
00:34:02.240 You know, there's some protections out there, especially like political figures and revenge
00:34:06.600 porn stuff like that, where there's been laws that have been put, put into place for
00:34:09.660 deep fakes.
00:34:10.180 But as far as, you know, this type of stuff is really, it's just parody where, where, where
00:34:14.660 there's no real recourse or damages that can be assessed for it.
00:34:18.060 Wow.
00:34:19.480 It's interesting because it's, it, that's going to, I mean, with, with CGI and that
00:34:23.220 sort of this kind of thing, this is going to be probably a growing field.
00:34:26.880 Yeah.
00:34:27.900 Oh, it's popping up.
00:34:29.080 Yeah.
00:34:29.220 Cause I mean, they got, you know, when, when the political race is around, they'll just
00:34:32.340 take the, whatever party they don't like and just have them saying some outlandish,
00:34:36.860 you know, outlandish comments, like, you know, crazy stances and they put it out there
00:34:41.880 on YouTube and it gets retweeted and that's the, you know, it becomes fact.
00:34:46.140 But how, I mean, how do we, what does the future hold?
00:34:51.300 I mean, even now it's like, I mean, the videos are getting better and better that now they
00:34:56.000 even have it where you can type in, you know, manifestos or lyrics and it will spit it out
00:35:02.460 in the person's voice too.
00:35:03.680 So there doesn't even have to be a recording and saying it's just, you know, copying of
00:35:08.020 their vocals now and spitting it out.
00:35:09.600 Yeah.
00:35:10.540 Yeah.
00:35:10.900 We just been talking about some of that recently, that chat GPT, I think it's called.
00:35:14.320 And when that merges with like holograms or deep fakes, it's going to get, I mean, it's
00:35:19.700 going to get really strange.
00:35:20.580 You know, I, I saw a thing a while back where they had so much footage and, um, audio of
00:35:26.500 Joe Rogan that they could make him have, they could have audio of him now saying absolutely
00:35:31.260 almost anything in the world.
00:35:33.000 Oh, exactly.
00:35:34.020 Yeah.
00:35:34.280 And that's how they have all these politicians not to make the speeches, you know, three
00:35:38.640 speeches a day.
00:35:39.460 They're just downloading it all and say, Hey, let's make them say, you know, listen to like
00:35:43.940 other, like, like power started in the past.
00:35:45.480 It would take, I mean, you know, years to chop up something to have it even not even some
00:35:48.660 analogy is pipe it into a, into a chat bot and spits it out in 30 seconds.
00:35:53.740 Yeah, man.
00:35:54.440 I mean, all we cared about was make them say, uh, nah, nah, nah, nah.
00:35:58.380 And it's just changed so much.
00:35:59.940 Um, is this, is this going to be a field that you guys will cover a lot, uh, at Shell's
00:36:06.240 law firm or is this, I mean, if there was some, there was damages against an actual plaintiff
00:36:12.100 where if there was some real harm that was done and, you know, and something came from
00:36:15.660 it, you would definitely look, look into it.
00:36:18.380 Um, but as far as just these celebrities having deep fakes made and stuff like that, you know,
00:36:22.420 it's probably something we're going to stay away and just see how the, the, the law evolves
00:36:26.100 around it.
00:36:26.980 Amen.
00:36:28.020 Dude.
00:36:28.460 Thanks so much, man.
00:36:29.340 I appreciate it, bro.
00:36:30.260 It's definitely been spooky.
00:36:31.380 And yeah, the guy came up and served the papers and I thought it was like a dude, like a,
00:36:35.260 I don't want to say like a homeless dude, not home.
00:36:38.140 I mean, he was like, yeah, they're sneaky.
00:36:39.780 Those process servers get sneaky with it, bro.
00:36:42.040 I thought it was like kind of a game, like kind of a dude who was being kind of homoerotic 1.00
00:36:47.300 or something.
00:36:47.700 Cause he kind of just, I mean, he just like kind of moseyed up.
00:36:53.280 I thought he'd written me a poem or something and then, uh, and then he hit me with that
00:36:58.260 and he kind of like, he didn't give like any, yeah, yeah.
00:37:01.840 It kind of like, it was just, I don't know, bro, but I'm trying to meet a wife one day.
00:37:05.560 It was just surprising.
00:37:09.220 I'd never really been served any papers.
00:37:10.840 I'd seen it happen a lot, but I'd never gotten myself.
00:37:13.560 So it was almost kind of nice, dude.
00:37:15.260 And it was almost like a Valentine in a weird way.
00:37:19.060 Right.
00:37:19.880 Yeah.
00:37:20.180 Someone was thinking about you.
00:37:21.540 Yeah, that's true.
00:37:23.560 These days.
00:37:24.200 That's nice.
00:37:25.020 Uh, Dan Morgan.
00:37:26.280 Thanks so much, man.
00:37:26.900 I appreciate it, brother.
00:37:28.840 Anytime, man.
00:37:29.580 I'm always a call away.
00:37:30.600 Yeah.
00:37:30.880 Thank you so much, dude.
00:37:31.780 Uh, I'll chat with you soon.
00:37:33.840 All right.
00:37:34.260 Sounds good, my man.
00:37:35.060 All right.
00:37:35.240 Peace.
00:37:35.940 If you have a question about a legal issue, you have a, um, something that you think they
00:37:41.560 might be able to help with, uh, the least I can do for that, uh, for the help there is,
00:37:46.560 um, to put their information, uh, below.
00:37:50.200 You know, it's scary.
00:37:51.440 It's scary when something comes along or when, uh, there's something in the legal realm and
00:37:56.880 you don't know what to do.
00:37:57.740 You know, that's, that can be spooky.
00:38:00.740 Okay.
00:38:01.140 Hey, let's get into some calls if we can.
00:38:07.160 Uh, here we go.
00:38:08.100 As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503.
00:38:18.340 Yo, CEO.
00:38:19.840 My name's D-Rap.
00:38:21.060 I'm out here in Indiana, you know, home of the mess.
00:38:25.000 D-Rap.
00:38:26.360 Thank you for calling, brother.
00:38:28.500 Onward. 1.00
00:38:29.520 Home of the fucking corn. 1.00
00:38:31.920 And, uh, you know, I just had a question, man. 0.99
00:38:35.580 So I got a friend and he's my best friend.
00:38:39.200 One of my best friends.
00:38:40.340 We started becoming friends a few years ago.
00:38:42.320 Man, he's been cheating on his girlfriend and I don't really like any of that.
00:38:49.040 And I told him, man, I need, I'm going to need to tell your girlfriend if you're cheating
00:38:54.280 on her, man.
00:38:55.020 I'll give you a week to tell her.
00:38:57.380 Man, that week went by and I told him, I was like, man, I need to tell your girl.
00:39:00.760 He's like, man, don't worry about it.
00:39:02.040 We're not getting broken up.
00:39:04.620 So, you know, like, what do I do in that situation?
00:39:08.840 Like, I don't want to tell his girlfriend because he's my homie.
00:39:11.640 But at the same time, I hate cheaters because my dad cheated on my mom back in the day. 1.00
00:39:16.140 And, you know, that shit really fucks me up. 1.00
00:39:18.340 And I've been cheating on her, so. 1.00
00:39:22.220 Meth or corn, baby?
00:39:24.520 Meth or corn?
00:39:27.020 That's the lifelong question, brother.
00:39:28.540 I feel you.
00:39:29.460 I think you got to, you can definitely say to your buddy, hey, not cool to cheat on this gal. 1.00
00:39:34.380 I don't know if you go tell the gal, though.
00:39:37.560 That's a little bit snitchy.
00:39:39.200 That's a little bit like, I'm going to take responsibility.
00:39:43.980 You know, it's not, that's not your world.
00:39:48.340 Um, so, I mean, it's your world, but it's, I don't know.
00:39:53.300 That, to me, feels like you're trying to control too much of things.
00:40:00.220 Now, maybe if it goes on for a long, you know, it's so tough to know.
00:40:04.480 But I feel like that's a little bit more of a thing you take up with your boy.
00:40:08.920 That's what you do.
00:40:10.160 You take it up with your boy.
00:40:11.100 Hey, man, I don't think this is a good thing.
00:40:14.240 You know, I wish you wouldn't do this.
00:40:16.340 Um, but then also, I mean, who knows, you know, it's tough.
00:40:23.800 You may have a feeling for that girl, but I don't know if that's the way to go about it.
00:40:28.720 I would start with your boy, man.
00:40:30.400 I would just say it again.
00:40:31.440 And then if you put a week on him and you didn't do nothing, then you're not even really about it anyway.
00:40:35.480 So if you're going to be about it, be about it, you know?
00:40:43.760 So I would say, man, I can't, you know, if you're going to be, uh, that's not the vibe I like to put out there.
00:40:48.620 It's not something I want to be associated with.
00:40:51.120 Then that's fair.
00:40:52.220 But then you got to stand by that with him.
00:40:54.380 If you just tell him every week, hey, man, don't be cheating or I'm out of here.
00:40:58.380 And then you stick around, you know, and then you're going to tell her, then you ain't even, you ain't even do nothing.
00:41:11.620 So praise God, baby.
00:41:13.060 Thank you for calling.
00:41:13.960 That's what I suggest.
00:41:14.880 Also, I don't know a thing, man.
00:41:16.900 You know, I've been a cheater.
00:41:18.040 I've cheated on people and I don't know. 0.97
00:41:21.800 It's fucking, it is no, it's no way to treat somebody. 0.96
00:41:24.640 I know that, um, but praise God, baby. 0.99
00:41:34.200 Let's see what else we got.
00:41:36.680 Um, all right, let's take this call.
00:41:40.280 As always, the hotline is 985-664-9503.
00:41:47.160 Hey, Dio.
00:41:48.800 Um, I'm calling.
00:41:50.640 Um, I have, I've worked in a, uh, learning center.
00:41:56.140 And.
00:41:57.480 That's a school, baby.
00:41:58.880 That's a school.
00:42:01.060 Onward.
00:42:02.160 These past few weeks, I've been having, there's just been, I work with special ed kids and, uh, you know, it's.
00:42:11.500 Oh, yeah.
00:42:12.540 I know what you're talking about, brother.
00:42:14.100 I was in special ed, baby.
00:42:17.660 Let's hear more.
00:42:18.540 It's, it's a job.
00:42:20.880 It gets stuff done.
00:42:22.860 But recently there's been a kid named James.
00:42:25.660 He has autism.
00:42:27.120 Mm-hmm. 0.98
00:42:27.800 And, uh, recently he's been trying to, uh, sexually assault me. 0.55
00:42:36.420 That adds up, baby.
00:42:42.140 Uh, yeah.
00:42:45.380 I mean, I feel like if somebody, I don't know how to say this.
00:42:50.180 First of all, a lot of people named James have, you know, they're tismed out. 0.97
00:43:01.880 And that's, you could draw a damn graph of that. 0.97
00:43:07.040 And, uh, and it would check out. 0.98
00:43:10.820 But, uh, what are we talking about?
00:43:17.280 Um, let me play it again.
00:43:20.680 Recently, there's been a kid named James.
00:43:22.840 He has autism.
00:43:24.280 Mm-hmm. 0.98
00:43:24.520 And, uh, recently he's been trying to, uh, sexually assault me. 0.64
00:43:34.520 Yeah. 1.00
00:43:35.440 Well, look, if people have autism, they're going to want to fuck, they want to get out that damn, you know. 1.00
00:43:40.780 They want to fucking burp that little nut wand, baby. 1.00
00:43:46.940 You know? 0.99
00:43:48.520 They, they, I mean, sometimes you just, I feel, you ever just been so just, you just want to spray on something.
00:43:59.840 So I can't even, if I had autism, I'd, I'd, you know, if I had fully documented autism, I would be, I'd spray on half the things in town, probably.
00:44:10.900 Let's hear more.
00:44:12.520 And, you know, I don't really care, but it's more frightening for the other students.
00:44:16.640 Yes.
00:44:17.940 And the thing is, you know, I know they can't help it and stuff, but every time he does it, he just has this look in his eyes.
00:44:28.440 Oh, yeah.
00:44:29.060 This lustful, evil look. 0.92
00:44:31.740 Well, they say if, if, uh, they say if the devil's got your nuts, he's got your eyes. 0.95
00:44:40.780 Because the eyes are just the nuts of the face.
00:44:49.500 So, yeah.
00:44:51.980 The feeling you have in your nuts is always the feeling that you have in your eyes. 0.99
00:44:55.800 Go punch somebody in the nuts and look in their eyes. 0.99
00:45:07.020 Same pain, baby. 1.00
00:45:08.140 And, yeah, look, it's tough, man.
00:45:14.700 Look, first of all, I commend you for being out there and being on the front lines of, um, of special ed.
00:45:23.740 But, you know, uh, let's hear more.
00:45:28.620 Almost like he knows what he's doing and if he knows that it's wrong.
00:45:32.060 Mm-hmm.
00:45:32.480 And he'll be, you know, he'll be running around and he'll be, stop that, James.
00:45:37.400 Stop it, James.
00:45:38.520 Please stop.
00:45:39.800 And, you know, he'll be helicoptering it.
00:45:41.920 Oh.
00:45:42.240 And it's just, it's scary.
00:45:45.500 And we're a little, we're a little afraid for our safety.
00:45:49.380 Well, let's, hold on, let's don't get crazy.
00:45:54.220 Let's, you know, I mean, you know, you don't have to be afraid for your safety, dog.
00:46:00.180 You got to, you know, you got a mentally unwell fellow just, you know, running around, trying, you know.
00:46:07.140 I mean, he's probably in heat.
00:46:08.780 Have you thought about that?
00:46:10.440 It's spring, baby.
00:46:11.420 It's almost spring.
00:46:12.380 It's going to be spring in a few months.
00:46:14.880 So, you don't know what, you know.
00:46:17.500 And if somebody's autism, they might be off by a month or two in their genetics, easily.
00:46:24.160 You can easily see that. 0.99
00:46:25.760 That's fucking, that's that DNA leap year, homie, if you got autism. 1.00
00:46:30.980 So, yeah, dude, it's springtime. 1.00
00:46:34.580 That fella's in heat. 1.00
00:46:36.320 That's what you're getting there.
00:46:38.700 James is in heat, man.
00:46:41.720 I'd get him a little bust post over in the corner. 0.98
00:46:44.100 Get a little pair of, uh, um, get you a half of a mannequin and put some damn, uh, uh, Daisy Dukes on it. 1.00
00:46:56.420 That's what I would do. 0.95
00:46:58.360 And put that thing, you know, put a candle or two in a closet and let him get in there and pump on it.
00:47:03.280 You know, you have to have a plan.
00:47:07.640 But if you're just yelling, stop it, James, and he's out there just, you know, he's tugging on that little spunk whisker, that's, stop it, James, isn't going to help. 0.98
00:47:19.780 You know, you're not a damn crossing guard, brother. 0.99
00:47:21.980 You know, they don't like to put all the different, you know, uses or whatever on the thing, but if I got a, you know, somebody in my area and they're over there splurging that little, uh, that little splash hammer right in front of me, I'll just damn hit them with that Narcan, baby. 0.97
00:47:47.280 You know, let the Lord sort them out. 0.86
00:47:51.060 Praise God.
00:47:51.860 Baby, let's hear a little bit more.
00:47:53.360 And thank you for the call, man.
00:47:54.620 I'm sorry that you're having to deal with some of this.
00:47:56.880 And I'm, I'm also afraid of some students because we found it, we found a collection of, uh, almost like a booger collection, but it was, it was other people's pictures that he took from under a stairwell.
00:48:14.080 So, so, but we've been working on stuff.
00:48:19.160 I don't know what to do with him. 0.97
00:48:21.240 Well, he might be damn an artist, brother. 0.91
00:48:23.040 You can't, you know, it sounds like he's an artist. 0.98
00:48:25.840 So don't condemn him for that.
00:48:28.520 Um, you know, I know they can't help it, but every time I, every time I look him in the eyes, he's just, he's just panting with that lustful, um, he'll smirk when he does it too.
00:48:40.780 It's like, he knows what he's doing.
00:48:42.460 And that's heat, brother.
00:48:43.620 He's in heat and that's somebody in heat.
00:48:47.100 And so I think at that point, you got to do prayer.
00:48:49.120 You got to, you got to consider Narcan, but I would do prayer first.
00:48:54.540 And, um, and yeah, and look, I'll just commend you, man, for being there and being there on the front lines of autism.

00:50:57.300 We had some sets.
00:50:58.120 I forgot to tell you that in Louisiana.
00:50:59.720 That was, it was fun.
00:51:01.580 A couple of them, the crowds were a little rowdy, but, uh, the ones that weren't, my God, they were awesome.
00:51:09.180 Man, they were awesome shows.
00:51:11.740 I'm so thankful.
00:51:12.940 It was so just cool to go through Louisiana and we're over there, you know?
00:51:17.640 And we went to Shreveport.
00:51:19.220 Jeez, Shreveport, that play, this, it went out of business.
00:51:23.000 I mean, they had, it was just, they had a building there.
00:51:29.100 I was walking on the street.
00:51:30.020 A building asked me for $40.
00:51:36.140 So, all right, let's hear this call that came in right here.
00:51:40.620 Hey, Theo.
00:51:43.280 I want to hear your opinion about something that happened to me at work recently.
00:51:47.700 Uh, to give you a little background on me, I grew up with a gay mom and she had a meth addiction.
00:51:55.700 My brother's gay.
00:51:57.080 My niece is a bisexual, transgender woman in the polyamorous relationships. 1.00
00:52:02.680 Damn. 1.00
00:52:04.760 You're living in a dang Skittle bowl, baby. 1.00
00:52:07.360 Amen, brother, onward.
00:52:10.740 I'm not against any of it, honestly.
00:52:14.080 Same, bro.
00:52:16.120 Same, baby.
00:52:18.120 I want people to be true to themselves, you know?
00:52:20.440 Mm-hmm.
00:52:20.920 But, it's all fun and games, man.
00:52:24.460 Until your boss, who's the HR manager, texts you unwanted propositions at a chili cook-off at work.
00:52:33.500 Oh, yeah. 0.87
00:52:34.120 Yeah, a lot of times, food can be a gateway drug to, uh, homosexuality.
00:52:46.820 Let's hear more.
00:52:48.840 Anyway, you and me are about the same age and, uh, things are for sure different than when we grew up.
00:52:57.720 And with the current climate, how do you think I should approach this situation?
00:53:02.140 Well, just because somebody's hitting on you, you know, I think if you are gay or considering gay, 0.92
00:53:13.020 and let me repeat that, if you are gay or considering gay, then approach this man. 0.99
00:53:21.540 Return him. 1.00
00:53:22.080 Go do it.
00:53:23.780 Do the chili.
00:53:24.600 Do the chili with him.
00:53:25.600 That's fine.
00:53:27.960 Nobody's, you know? 0.94
00:53:29.940 I mean, you're probably, most of your family's gay. 0.87
00:53:34.300 It sounds like, you know, anybody that even stops by y'all's house ends up gay. 1.00
00:53:39.380 To be honest, from what you said. 0.99
00:53:41.380 So, you could easily be gay, dude. 0.90
00:53:43.280 You might be, you might not even be lonely. 0.99
00:53:45.680 You might just be gay and be just gay and around bothering women. 0.98
00:53:56.320 I'm not saying that, but it could be happening. 0.98
00:53:58.680 Um, but I don't think you need to feel a pressure because of the way the climate is to return, uh, any homoerotic, homoeroticism. 0.99
00:54:13.580 Um, you know, you, you don't have to do anything like that just because of the climate.
00:54:19.780 You don't want, you know, just because there's a lot of gay stuff happening, you have to, you know, do that. 1.00
00:54:27.120 Um, but also innately, some of these chili cook-off circles, it's a hotbed for gay activity. 1.00
00:54:35.100 You know, it's a lot of men.
00:54:36.660 It's all men doing it. 1.00
00:54:38.440 They're wearing aprons.
00:54:39.940 You see a lot of that.
00:54:41.560 Uh, cutting onions.
00:54:42.920 One of them's tearing up.
00:54:44.080 One of them comes over.
00:54:45.000 What's up?
00:54:45.420 What's up?
00:54:45.860 What's up, Henry?
00:54:47.480 What's wrong? 0.96
00:54:50.860 Nothing's fucking wrong, dude. 1.00
00:54:53.480 He's out here with the damn devil's vegetables. 1.00
00:54:57.840 That's what it is. 1.00
00:54:58.820 I mean, onions, that's a, you know, my God. 0.99
00:55:02.700 It's the Nicholas Sparks of fucking vegetables. 1.00
00:55:07.720 I mean, when do we, when do we shut that shit down? 1.00
00:55:10.080 Um, just, but yeah, that whole, the whole thing with the chili cook-off, it's a hotbed for gay men to sneak in. 1.00
00:55:21.280 And, you know, hit you with that little shishito pepper. 0.99
00:55:24.420 You know?
00:55:27.600 And just hit you with that little, uh, you know, just try to get you to sip off that little, uh, that little batter fountain.
00:55:38.640 Off a little Bobby's little fondue railing.
00:55:41.020 You know?
00:55:41.440 You know what I'm talking about, wiener.
00:55:42.840 So, uh, yeah, I think just take care of yourself either way.
00:55:49.240 But also, if you, you know, it may, you might be reading yourself wrong.
00:55:53.560 Here's what I would do.
00:55:54.480 I would get seven or eight of your friends. 0.88
00:55:56.960 I would ask them all, am I gay?
00:56:00.440 Do you think?
00:56:01.540 Or on a scale of one to ten.
00:56:02.920 Don't even go all this, you know, put, get yourself a number.
00:56:05.960 And then walk out into the world and know.
00:56:10.360 Thank you for the call, man.
00:56:11.460 I love you.
00:56:12.600 And we all love you.
00:56:14.580 Um, what else do we have here?
00:56:17.740 What's going on, Phil?
00:56:19.540 It's Mike.
00:56:20.800 And, uh, it's that urban gentleman.
00:56:22.980 What's up, Mike, baby?
00:56:24.140 Urban Mike, baby.
00:56:25.720 Welcome, baby.
00:56:26.420 Praise God, son.
00:56:28.320 Beige gang.
00:56:29.740 Out of South Florida.
00:56:31.760 Um, so, uh, I was adopted at birth.
00:56:35.560 Man, and, um, you know, I don't know anybody from my, you know, on my biological side.
00:56:42.540 And, uh, I decided to do some searching.
00:56:45.040 I found my, uh, I found my mother on Facebook.
00:56:48.120 And I found, uh, I found some bad news.
00:56:51.120 She's, uh, she's locked up right now up north.
00:56:54.040 Uh, she broke for a while.
00:56:56.320 For quite a while.
00:56:57.740 But, um, I, uh, I decided to message her yesterday, man.
00:57:04.560 And, uh, finally got the ball as a messenger.
00:57:06.900 And I was nervous.
00:57:07.840 I didn't know how she would respond, you know.
00:57:10.120 And, uh, she, she emailed me back this morning.
00:57:14.260 And it was real positive.
00:57:15.800 You know, like, everything she had to say was real positive.
00:57:19.120 It's just, it's just, it's crazy, man.
00:57:22.700 It's crazy.
00:57:23.340 You know, that's something I've dreamed about my entire life.
00:57:25.780 Like, every day since I can remember I dreamed of being able to talk to my mother, man.
00:57:31.560 And, uh, she's going to give me a call this, uh, this afternoon.
00:57:36.700 We're going to talk on the phone for the first time.
00:57:38.920 It's crazy, man.
00:57:41.120 It's been 32 years since the last time I saw her, you know.
00:57:44.600 So, I don't know exactly, you know, I text my brother, my adopted brother, and let him know.
00:57:51.300 And then the next thing I did was I hopped on the phone and gave you a call, man.
00:57:55.360 I don't, you know, I don't know exactly why.
00:57:57.840 But, you know, obviously we don't know each other.
00:57:59.640 But I just, I wanted to share that with you, man.
00:58:03.300 Gang, brother.
00:58:03.780 Man, thank you, bro.
00:58:09.540 Thank you, man.
00:58:10.360 This is, uh, that's a nice, it's just nice.
00:58:18.000 You know, it's nice that there's something powerful going, there's something powerful going on in your life.
00:58:22.260 And you thought, and you, your nature, whoever you are, you thought, hey, man, I'm feeling something.
00:58:29.840 There's really something special going on.
00:58:31.080 I'm going to share it with somebody else.
00:58:32.460 Not even that it was with me, with this group.
00:58:36.920 But this is a powerful moment.
00:58:38.860 I'm going to share this with somebody else.
00:58:43.280 That's awesome, man.
00:58:44.360 Thank you for the call.
00:58:47.420 You got me up in here, dog.
00:58:49.600 You hit me in those. 0.93
00:58:51.460 Man. 1.00
00:58:53.840 My Tism James is a freaking, you got me in them, damn. 1.00
00:58:58.300 My little skeet almonds. 1.00
00:59:01.960 These things are activated.
00:59:08.400 You know, it's funny, man.
00:59:12.060 You, because you sound like you're in a good place, man.
00:59:17.100 This is just judgment from this call.
00:59:18.960 But you sound like you're in a good place and, um, obviously your mother probably isn't in the best place, uh, with jail.
00:59:28.960 But, but, it sounds like you are going to be able to be there.
00:59:39.180 You may have a chance to be for your mother what she wasn't for you.
00:59:41.900 Which, and, and, and that you may be strong enough to do that.
00:59:54.780 And that is, that's on God, man, I think.
01:00:07.760 Yeah, I can't imagine, you know, waiting your whole life to talk to your mother.
01:00:11.360 God.
01:00:15.120 You know, all those times when you don't even realize as a child, as an offspring, as a creation of something, that you need that thing to be there.
01:00:24.780 Um, and not even sometimes their voice, but even just in their presence, to know that something is there.
01:00:32.620 To support you, just like a wall.
01:00:36.380 But like a wall that, like, loves you so matter, so, so much, no matter what.
01:00:41.520 And a wall that's really also a door.
01:00:45.100 Um, man.
01:00:49.740 But it sounds like you, you, however your life has worked out, that you,
01:00:54.780 sound healthy enough where you can, you might be able to be whatever she never had.
01:01:01.780 In addition to you guys working out your mother-son relationship.
01:01:06.780 Um, and that's really, that's, that's what I think is amazing about life.
01:01:12.200 It's like, what am I supposed to, how can I be useful in this situation?
01:01:21.200 And me, I don't know if I could do that because I would probably look too much at my own plight.
01:01:25.520 I'd be looking too much at, oh man, my mud, this, and I don't know if I'd be able to turn that corner.
01:01:34.760 And say, honestly, hey, what is, why now are we back together? 0.99
01:01:40.380 And what, how do I look past my own angst or my own, you know, or you may not even have any more of that shit, 0.99
01:01:50.140 but how do I rise above that to be whatever? 0.99
01:01:52.740 How do I be a great son and an adult son?
01:02:05.580 You know, I've had trouble evolving in that way and evolving from being just a son to being an adult son.
01:02:14.600 Um, it's funny, it's just kind of a space that I'm in in my life.
01:02:27.600 But man, I, and I didn't mean to talk about myself so much.
01:02:30.040 It just, it's powerful that you chose to share that with us, man.
01:02:34.080 Man, you know how good that makes us feel? 0.89
01:02:36.020 First of all, to have an urban guy call, urban person that even fucking messes with us, bro. 0.98
01:02:45.720 Praise God, dog. 0.95
01:02:48.120 But even more than that, just that, that you're like, hey, I, I'm going to, I'm going to be,
01:02:56.960 that you let all of us, you let us enjoy that moment with you.
01:03:02.660 You let us in on that, man.
01:03:04.260 You know how much that, it's going to give us something.
01:03:08.840 It's going to give us a little bit more faith that's going to get us through the next day, the next hour.
01:03:13.940 Some people just might be a minute, but it's going to give us something.
01:03:17.600 It gives me a, we want to believe that there's things out there that are working for good.
01:03:24.280 That's cool, man.
01:03:25.440 So excited for you, bro.
01:03:26.840 If you get a chance, man, hit the hotline again.
01:03:32.400 I would just love to know how it went, you know.
01:03:37.100 But if you are in that space where you say, hey, man, this is something powerful and I'm going to call him a share.
01:03:41.400 This is, I'm going to let this be a part of this ambiance of this show.
01:03:46.860 Man, that means a lot.
01:03:48.060 And, yeah, we'll connect and let me see if there's something nice we could do to help out or help her.
01:03:55.220 I don't know.
01:03:55.660 But somehow, even though it was giving you up or what, I don't know any of it, but she helped make a good son.
01:04:23.200 You know, she helped make a good son somehow.
01:04:25.660 Um, so, man.
01:04:34.700 You know, this stuff, I guess, makes me want to be alive.
01:04:40.040 It makes me want to be alive. 0.89
01:04:45.000 You know, it's those moments, man, where you fucking something, you feel something. 1.00
01:04:51.560 God, that shit is high. 1.00
01:04:52.800 That is a high, bro. 1.00
01:04:55.660 That is a high, bro.
01:04:59.520 Praise God, baby.
01:05:00.460 Thank you for calling in.
01:05:02.220 Um, I don't know.
01:05:03.960 I mean, what, you know, what else are we going to say?
01:05:05.840 Um, yeah, that's, you know, I feel like it's just a good place to finish a show today.
01:05:16.020 This show's been all over the place.
01:05:17.120 I've been feeling all over the place, but that's okay.
01:05:19.340 I'm grateful to be here with you guys.
01:05:21.180 I'm grateful we're going to be adding more.
01:05:24.040 We're going to try to get over to England.
01:05:25.980 We got put, we're going to try to get to everywhere.
01:05:29.080 You know, we're putting the shows out as we can.
01:05:31.800 Um, next week we'll have some new shows going up in, uh, I think in St. George, Utah or Springdale, Utah.
01:05:40.320 Uh, we're figuring some of that out.
01:05:42.040 If you have a plan to be down there, um, that'll be around, uh, the second week of July, second weekend.
01:05:48.340 Um, let's go out the way that we didn't even come in.
01:05:53.720 Uh, we'll just close it out, man.
01:05:57.860 A lot of neat stuff.
01:05:59.280 Uh, I don't know what else to say.
01:06:01.500 Uh, maybe we've said enough.
01:06:04.700 Um, I don't know.
01:06:07.960 I feel like there's something else I'm supposed to be telling you guys, but to all the people out there struggling with the, uh, the stuff in the Midwest and the fear and stuff like that, it's scary.
01:06:16.460 You know, it's scary to think that, um, that this template of the world, we, we, sometimes we feel, especially in America, like our environment, that the world, the government, all this is, is going to take care of us.
01:06:29.820 And when that doesn't happen, it's very scary because we realize we're just this being in this, in this, in this template of society that we've created.
01:06:42.420 And that, if some of that structure fails us or doesn't do us right, we're still sitting there responsible for ourselves.
01:06:51.020 Uh, and that's very scary.
01:06:53.220 So, my heart goes out to the people that are in fear of that.
01:06:56.740 And, uh, what else, man?
01:06:59.460 I, oh, man, I don't know. 0.99
01:07:01.400 I've been jerking off, but I don't want to be. 0.98
01:07:07.280 So, it's been getting better. 0.99
01:07:12.680 It's been getting better.
01:07:13.800 And that's all we can ask.
01:07:15.020 Oh, you guys be good to yourselves, man.
01:07:17.140 Um, you deserve it and we will.
01:07:19.320 Let's go out with some Bishop again.
01:07:23.400 Um, uh, actually, you know what?

01:09:37.040 Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Jonathan Kite, and welcome to Kite Club.
01:09:50.180 A podcast where I'll be sharing thoughts on things like current events, stand-up stories,
01:09:55.460 and seven ways to pleasure your partner.
01:09:57.960 The answer may shock you.
01:09:59.680 Sometimes I'll interview my friends.
01:10:01.760 Sometimes I won't.
01:10:03.280 And as always, I'll be joined by the voices in my head.
01:10:06.120 You have three new voice messages.
01:10:09.400 A lot of people are talking about Kite Club.
01:10:12.280 I've been talking about Kite Club for so long.
01:10:14.960 Longer than anybody else.
01:10:16.580 So great.
01:10:17.940 Hi.
01:10:18.580 Swaya.
01:10:19.600 Easy deal. 1.00
01:10:20.880 Anyone who doesn't listen to Kite Club is a dodgy bloody wanker. 1.00
01:10:24.880 Jermaine. 1.00
01:10:26.160 Ho-hoi! 1.00
01:10:27.020 I'll take a quarter pounder with cheese and a McFlurry.
01:10:29.960 Sorry, sir, but our ice cream machine is broken.
01:10:32.020 Ho-ho-ho! 1.00
01:10:33.300 No!
01:10:33.620 I think Tom Hanks just butt-dialed me.
01:10:36.780 Anyway, first rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club.
01:10:40.900 Second rule of Kite Club is, tell everyone about Kite Club.
01:10:45.140 Third rule, like and subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts.
01:10:48.800 Or watch us on YouTube, yeah?
01:10:50.920 And yes, don't worry, my Brad Pitt impression will get better.
01:10:54.000 Yeah, don't worry.
01:10:59.020 Third rule of Kite Club has a spike if not.
