Well, hello and welcome. Thanks for getting your pot on, Thanks
for telling a friend. That's how we spread the word. That's how we
spread the word. Dougie Fresh in the house, in the house baby,
happy post eclips day. Yeah, I did you see it? Did you
see it? I? Uh? Did you look up without your glasses like
everybody else? You have a headache for a little while? No? No,
I didn't, I didn't. Did you did you really have a headache?
Uh? Just a little bit? Really? Yeah. They said that
even with the cloud was clouds across the eclipse, and where the glasses for
a little bit, you'd see some colors, which I think I did in
this guy. I mean, obviously was overcast and wasn't the best result,
But I don't, I don't. Uh hmm, I didn't know. Did
you have the glasses on the whole time? No? No, never,
I put them on and the glasses were so dark that I like it literally
like was lights out when you put the glasses. I did, I did
for a little bit. Yeah, and so I did not do. Uh,
maybe it was not where I was listening to that was giving me a
headache. That could be because I was no I frontier field. Yeah,
I mean I I found that. I thought it was great, and I
I think I'm in the minority, but I thought it was No. I
thought it. I thought it was great too. And I said, uh,
you know, I think it's wonderful that something like this can bring a
a city together. And yeah, people here and people are complaining, Oh,
they're spending all their money, they're traveling. I'm like, what do
you care. I'm like, it's astrology, it's it's nature. And if
they have the money to come in and see Rochester. And although we have
to offer besides garbage place, Astrong Museum, Sanitarium, Charlotte Beach, you
and you and I were talking about, like, you know, what was
there the economic impact. I have no idea. I don't know, and
these numbers always take it like a little bit to tut out. But there
are people who are saying, like, you know, where were they?
Where was everybody? Hey, there was no traffic, there was anything.
Everybody followed the rules, there was no incidents. They've been and they've been
planning this for well over a year, seven years to be exact. They've
known and I know that the Sheriff's Department has been, you know, planning.
So I have no idea. I have a friend that I went to
Saint John Fisher with Greg Luduca, who is the part of the Rochester Chamber
of Commerce. I don't know what he is. He's something with the welcome
what I don't know, but it's not even welcome wagon. I don't know.
So I run into him in front of your field and I said,
what is the real numbers here? And he said, well, I don't
know if you saw the chart, but ninety nine percent of the airbnbs in
the totality path throughout the United States were sold out. He goes our hotels
downtown were all sold out, they were at capacity. And then Jamie Lissou,
who was at the comedy club, couldn't even get in to Rochester.
Wound up having to rent a car and drive it here this weekend. And
then I won't get into that later and then so there's that, and then
Mac of all trades, his wife comes next door. They were down in
uh Key West and they got I don't know if it was a weather delay
that was somewhere in the United States that kept them a couple days. They
couldn't get back to Rochester, and they kept calling the airline and the airlines
like, look, it's the eclipse. We can't catch any flights into Rochester.
We don't have enough people to even man the towers. So they wound
up last night getting into Philly at nine o'clock, and then from there only
three of them could get on the next flight because they were sold without seats.
So they're ending up getting a refund from the airline. And Mike had
a rent a car and arrived at three thirty this morning from Philadelphia and all
that. So I have no idea. So that says to me, a
shitload of people came here, but everybody's going Where were they? I don't
know. Now, when you drove into Frontier Field or it was no more
traffic than no more traffic, But I got I left the full outside.
I mean I go down there was about no there wasn't It was everybody was,
here's the thing, no school, No school last week. The kids
were already on spring break. They're still in spring extra day, spring break
mode. Stay inside, sleep a little later. Right. Everybody's kicking their
feet up. Didn't they say? One hundred thousand two five? One hundred
thousand? I guess, but here, But here's that's kind of a big
I got you. I know it's a big swath. You're right in big
range, But like, how many people are coming to the party, thirty
or eighty? That's a big thing. Sure it is, But I have
no idea. This is what I'm telling you. So you've got the people
who were saying exactly that, and I'm saying, I don't know. Because
I'm told by people in charge that the hotels were sold out downtown and by
friends, two of them could not even get into this city because of the
eclipse. I don't know what that means. I don't know. I don't
know. I don't either. I know my parents went to a party to
the next door neighbors, o' lachland's or cooking grills outside. We had something
at Forest Sills. We just had hots and hams and told people to come
on down and yeah about I don't know about twenty people. See, I
mean that's it. I think like little pockets of people. I know all
parties. There was a party at my buddy Damien's, or it's a party
right down here at my wine and cheese bar that my mother and I stopped
into because I came back and set up the studio after we left Innovative Field.
We go in there and they have a big giant cheese platter. So
we're sitting there talking, laughing, and my mother goes, can we get
some cheese? And then he's like, oh, it was for a private
party, but here was the deal. Twenty dollars. You got live music,
your first drink, and access to this giant cheese tray and fruits and
all that stuff. And I go, that's actually not a bad price.
So then I said, well, how about I pay you twenty bucks and
I'm gonna go get some cheese. And she goes, haven't you just go
get some cheese. It's because my mother walks in the old charmer that cheese
to smell so good. I think I'd like some cheese. I don't know,
I have not been sleeping well because I'm I have a one bedroom place
that I have, and uh, it becomes I guess problematic. But I
don't have my kids, so I'm like, I'm not gonna you know what
I mean, I'm not gonna spend it. So I have been sleeping on
an air mattress. But it becomes a core exercise at about in the middle
of the night because it deflates slightly and you roll over and you start to
lose your balance. And I'm like, so I am very tired, and
I'm staying with you. Ob Yeah, she's got the beautiful king sized bed
right and you've got there with the duck night. I knew it was a
new air match. Fuck man, so and then I got anyway, it
doesn't matter. But I will say this, I I think that that thing.
Yesterday. I'm standing there watching the eclipse, and I know that there
was everybody shitting on it. It didn't happen. We didn't see. And
I kept looking up and I go, wow, this is really cool because
I could see the corona like was shining through that that would be the edge
of the sun because it's bigger than the moon coming through and you and it
was lighting up patches of the sky and you could see where this the clouds
were thinner, and then it got completely dark and it was really really I
found it interesting. Yeah, that part was really neat. I kept going
in this out of the bar. Yeah, I go fill up a drink
or get somebody something, and it was getting darker and the next thing you
know, it's it's midnight. Yeah, I'm like, this is you know
that cool? You're not going to see this every day now, So what
did you take away from that? Because I took something away and I think
that either maybe I'm fucking weird, but I took some fucking weird anyway.
Yeh, yeah, I I just thought it was a nice experience to be
part of. Now. I remember years ago where you could see the solar
flares and we had a neighbor they had the welding glass. Yeah yeah,
and you could see just a hair of it coming off the sun. But
could say that you did it, And I thought that was neat. But
for all the heaters out there, oh, it didn't happen out it was
overcast. You you can't change the weather and no, and it's it's very
very funny to me that we had a like not a cloud in the sky
for the sky on Sunday. Not a cloud. It's eighty degrees here or
seventy guys looking up there at ay Rochester. Here's another one for you.
Hey, hey, we're going wide right with the eclipse too, Joe,
turn up the clouds. It's like, but I but that okay, so
wide right with the clips? So what a dig? I'm Diggs. I'm
watching dig I'm watching this and I went, Okay, I think this.
I think we live completely wrong as human beings, completely fucking wrong. I'm
watching this and I go, there is clearly a higher intelligence. And I
used to jokingly say to my kids when they would get stressed out more when
they were like teens, the older boys and I would always go, hey,
did anybody uh push the button to make the sun come up this morning?
Did you go out and spin the earth to make sure like there's all
this shit that's happening? And we get so caught up in our lives that
we forget like things are still happening. And I am a huge believer.
As I've gotten older and gotten away from it's like, you get to this
planet and you're conditioned, your conditioned to life is hard. You've got to
work. You gotta grind, you gotta blah blah blah blah. And I'm
believing more and more in my life that that is complete and utter fucking horseshit.
It is wrong. You didn't truck anything and here from another planet.
All the resources were here. Everything you need to have is here. The
only thing you need to have is a better attitude, because when you're feeling
good and you're in the zone, everything works for you. Everything. The
universe does not put anything in it that it cannot support. It just doesn't.
Right. And I'm watching this yesterday and I go, all of this
stuff is happening, and you never think about it. I don't think about
the sun coming up and going down. I don't know, if you take
a look at the history of the Aztecs, when all you had was to
farm your crops and look at the sun and the moon and the stars.
They had a lot of things figured out back then. Yes, But I'm
just saying, like, but all that was done right. So they built
it into they figured it out, and they used all the resources that were
here, and there was happiness and there was all this. We are like
miserable, miserable, I mean, think about all the things that just make
you miserable in a day, think about all the shit. And I'm not
saying, look, I'm irritable today because I have not slept well. So
I am. I am irritable. And I have to pause at one point
and go, you had this almost what felt like an epiphany standing there yesterday,
going everything we do. It's the Shakespearean line, you know, life,
you're but a player on the stage. Do you front and strat your
hour to be hurt? No more? Wow, you're gonna die? Right?
And that what they said, Yeah, yeah, so Shakespeare wrote that,
And I go, we live completely. We're all fucking mad about shit,
and we gotta you gotta get to work. You better work, you
better work, but fuck fuck you and fuck It's like all this stuff is
still going on. Do what you want? Be happy? Have you know?
Yes? Do you want to buy some land in Alaska? And you
could just well build a cab? I understand what it sounds like that,
But we get mad, we get them oment like, here's the other thing.
I go, you can't worry. We definitely put value on the wrong
things. I think we absolutely put well. I have proof because I had
all these thoughts, and then Danny from the podcast said to me, hey,
did you see this? And I'll play it for you in a second,
and I thought, actually, you may get a kick out of it.
I'm sure we'll probably get a couple of jokes. But I go,
we worry, we stretch, we get mad, we mistake emotions. You
know, we start to think that when we worry about somebody that that means
we really love them. But you can't worry and love someone at the same
time. You cannot. It is no, you cannot. You cannot.
You don't worry about my mother. You can't worry, and that's that's one
thing, and then love is the other. And when you're loving her,
everything's great, right, you probably have better conversations. When you're worrying about
her. You're not loving her, you're worrying, and that you're worrying about
her, And that's what I'm saying. And I go, man, we
we fucked. We are so fucked. And it's and I don't know who's
fault. And you can't have two emotions at once. What if you're making
love to a woman and you're worrying about your mother, but you're making love
and good. But is it the picture you're there? You're not all there.
You're not all there, You're not alone there. I'm just saying you're
not all there. And I think most people mistake the emotion of worry for
love and they're fucking wrong. And I'm sitting there. They go, If
I say this into a microphone, people are gonna think I'm I'm fucking crazy.
But I think I just I thought this is I think this is how
things are. And then Danny sends me this. This is a guy that
goes around the country and he finds people probably between the ages of sixty and
one hundred, and he asked them questions like, what's your biggest regret?
What would you tell your younger self? What are the things that you don't
you no longer believe that sort of thing. So I want to play just
a couple of these for you, and I would love to, you know,
just hear you, because I think he can maybe make them funny.
But here's one. How old are you sixty three? If you could give
one piece of advice to someone younger than you, what would you say,
don't listen to anybody. Ninety percent is in your stomach. If it feels
right, you do it, and if it don't feel right, you don't
do it. Wow, why is that so important? Because human beings have
feelings and you could feel that. You know, if it's not right and
everyone's snaking, it's right. And maybe you have a different edge and you
don't feel it's right, you know, I'll do it. What is something
you thought was really important when you were younger, but as you got older
you realized it wasn't that important having a lot of money. You don't need
a lot of money to be happy in life. My parents are gone.
All the money in the world can't bring that back. And all the money
in the world can't bring your health. If you're in bed and you can't
get out, you have a ton of money, it's not gonna get you
out of bed. So you said your parents are gone, Yeah, they're
gone about fifteen years. What is something you wanted to say to your parents
that you never got a chance to say? Thank you for everything you've done
for me? Maybe who I was beautiful? That's it? They did good?
Old? Right? Isn't that interesting? Yes, it's it's sixty three.
He's only what right? Not that old? In terms of today's parents
died young and forty something. Yes, and his parents died probably when they
were in their sixties, so you start to think of that, but I
do. My father's going to be eighty next year, so I got another
twenty seven years to dick around and have fun. That's how I looked at
it. And he outlived his father. Yeah, yeah, my dad's outlived
his dad by about five years so far. How old is your dad?
Seventy eight? All right, so you got another twenty eight years. Yeah,
we're going to be doing this for another twenty years. That's all right.
That's fine, my man. I want to hit every state, Alaska,
Hawaii, Louisiana. Here's another one. How old are you? I
am seventy three. How does it feel to be seventy three? It feels
great. I don't feel seventy three. I can't believe I got here.
What is something you thought was really important when you were younger, but as
you got older, you realized it wasn't that important. Money. It was
always about making money and having money and as long as you have enough to
eat, keep a roof over your head, you guys, So what does
matter in life? Love? Family, all the non material things they get
you through. Have you ever lost someone you really love? I just lost
my father last year. That was really hard. I did losing your dad
a year ago impact you? He was ninety eight. He lived a wonderful
life and we all knew that, but at the same time, none of
us were ready to sing him out. Is there anything you miss about him?
I miss everything. I miss the sayings. I missed talking to him
every morning, just a it was an amazing man. What is something you
really wanted to say to him that you never got a chance to say.
I just hope that he knows how wonderful father we all thought he was.
If you could go back in time and have a conversation with your younger self,
what would you tell her, sweat the small stuff, don't sweat the
little stuff. It's all gonna work itself out. Well, I really believe
that. I believe that they think of your own life, everything always works
out. But by god damn do we sweat it? So what is the
small stuff? I don't. I don't know, because that's an easy saying.
I mean, what is the small stuff? The small stuff is the
everyday bullshit you're sweating, paying the bills, making the money stop and just
relax and all the shit's gonna be Okay, Well, you gotta go and
do stuff. But I do have to stuff. But I think you have
to come from a positive inspired way of doing things. Then this I gotta
grind. I gotta Oh man, I don't you know, I swear to
God your brain's a magnet. Well, brains are fucking magnet. You're right,
maybe, and I don't know. I will say one thing that grinds
any is just having some credit card debt. Sure you know. I just
had to give my a car repaired and it was one thousand dollars. Now
the interests and the fire's tone card is I think twenty nine percent, right,
So you're trying just to walk to ketch up some of these situations you
have to run to ketch up. Yeah, then you're what's the old saying,
robbing Paul to pay Peter, robbing Peter to pay Paul, pay Yeah
whatever, you know what? Yeah, but I understand it. But I
often think sometimes when we start getting ourselves into that mental like feeling of lack,
that's why, like when the first guy said, basically follow your gut,
I'd say even something more like, I think we're all intuitive. We
kind of know. You ever get a gut feeling like, hey, I
don't want to do that. That doesn't feel right, you know? You
ever do something and stay in it too long? You know, Oh,
something happened? Hell? Oh should we pause? Here? He who's it?
Your mother? You need a call her? No, she's probably texting
me and she hit call instead. But I love her. Now I'm worrying.
Why see, But Mom, I can't I apologize. Oh that's all
right, but uh oh, I just think like you gotta follow your gut.
Like there's something that's like it's just been bugging me for a while,
and I feel like I keep doing it over and over and everything's staying kind
of the same and all this stuff, and I'm like, I think it
gotta just jump follow my gut, get the fuck out, you know,
stop that stuff, go with it, donut. It just becomes like a
waste of fucking time, you know. And you don't want to hurt feelings,
you know, want to, but sometimes you just gotta go fuck it.
I can anymore. I can't because it's not there's another chapter to be
yes, exactly if you could go back in time, and have a conversation
with your younger self. What would you tell him? I would tell him
the desire to have material possessions to compete in that very artificial and empty world
is a waste of time. It's useless, and it's very negative. And
then to look for relationships. My curiosity is about people. Have you ever
lost someone you really love? Yes? My father miss him every day.
He was a very positive influence on me. What's an experience you've had with
your dad that really changed you as a person that really stands out to you.
There was one day when I was really in a bad way in my
first marriage, and I went to him and I was very upset and I
was crying, and he finally realized that I was suffering, and he put
his arms around me and he said, I will make it my business to
make sure that you get better. And that was a significant moment in my
life. What is something you really wanted to say to your father that you
never got a chance to tell him? How much I think I have become
more like you, Dad, than either I or you could ever have imagined.
I heard that one when I go I feel like a shitty dad,
because I've had situations where I've just been like, got the fucking drama,
let's go, I got it out. There's nothing wrong with it. Nothing
that bad day stop. Don't you hear people say, yeah, my father
had to give me a kick and the ass one. Yeah. I mean
I I also think that there are people that are just there are people I
sometimes parents are better to be seen and not heard. Yes, it's a
weird thing because I often like lectured my guys a lot, like it would
be, you know, hey, you got a b b bah bah bah
blah. And then now I feel like I've sort of done a bit of
a one eighty and and I was somewhere with my son who's going to be
graduating college in a couple of weeks, and somebody said to him, uh,
it was like a work party for him. He was he works for
McCarthy's tent. So they had this this really nice party. And he took
me to him and he said, somebody, go, Zah, is your
old man give you a lot of you know, advice and stuff like that.
He goes not anymore. Actually, he just kind of leaves me alone.
And I said, yeah, because at this point, the one thing
I learned is it's it's not my life, and that's the problem. We
want to try to save somebody from mistakes or a problem that we made,
and it's not your life. Let him go and just do the things to
learn. I mean I learned for yourself, right, I mean I say
things to like he's saying to me, he's graduating, doesn't know what he's
gonna doesn't know what he's gonna do. I get all these questions and I
think, I gotta gotta And I said to him, you don't do anything.
You're twenty two years old. I go buy a backpack, get a
Google map and go through Europe there. Just go. I go, you
gotta Oh, I got it? Well, I go, no, you
don't. I said, you know what you should do? You want to
do this? Want you go and get a job at Martha's Vineyard for the
summer and then take the winner and go to Park City, Utah and do
that and make a lot of money. Yeah, this is the time to
do it. And I go yeah, and I go, buddy, you're
this is a kid who is he is jacked. He is in phenop The
best shape he's ever gonna be in is right now. Right, he can
bench three and twenty pounds out Florida X year old wife. Go will Yeah,
I'm not saying go be a whore. I am. You're listening out
there, I am. I am saying, go and live, Go for
the adventure. Go sweat. Stop this fucking I gotta get a job.
I gotta sweat. I sweat. People will often yell get mad at me
because I still think not college is not for everybody. It's not no,
And I know I hate seeing higher education at the cost you're paying. Become
a trade school. You go to be trained so you can then get a
job. And my thing would be, and this is where I differ on
a lot of people, go and learn knowledge for the sake of knowledge.
You will apply it and if you need proof. My old man philosophy major,
everybody goes, what the fuck do you do with the philosophy? This
is a guy who grew up in a tenement in Brooklyn and built the house.
I grew up and never had a power tool in his hand. I
figured it out because he could think, learned to think critically. How many
people are you going to college? What's your degree? Economics? Accounting?
To use it now, I had for years your mother had fun and hey,
man, you have to keep learning. Yes, that's all. And
that was all the ship I got yesterday. I apologize. I'm a little
up today. I noticed I could tell that you're a little off your rocker.
Just you just fired up. You had the big I'm tired, you're
tired, and came through the eclips came through and I actually found myself it's
a world of them. Believe I guess, sure it is. I felt
I was. I felt tired after it, I was like, it did
feel weird, came back all right. I was like I was at the
bar and it went dark, like okay, last like all right, bar
still. I mean I was making jokes. I had the glasses on,
doing my Stevie Wonder personation. I mean, I got some laughs. But
I found it very cool, interesting that it was a part of it.
Yeah, I did too. And I think that sometimes we need to relax
a little bit and realize there's a higher intelligence making all this work. We
don't need to sweat. Our main job is to be happy, and if
there's a situation in your life that you're not happy with, walk away from
it, which I am going to do. You're not walking away. You're
not sticking me with this podcast. No, I'm just saying in certain situations,
that's what you have to do. It's just what you gotta do.
I'm done, And I think the older you get, the easier it gets.
Yeah. Yeah, because you realize there isn't much time and this isn't
working for me, So why the fuck am I going to waste my time?
Yeah, we'll take a moment. I'll ask you this, ask me

You gotta go and try the spinach artichoke Mac and Cheese Bomb. Let
me say that name again, the Spinach artichoke Mac and Cheese Bomb. It's
their housemade spinach artichoke mixed in their housemade alfredo overflowing out of a bread bowl

disappointed over fifty TVs. You're not gonna miss a ball, a strike,
a basket, a puck. It's all going on at bTB. Wood Fire,
Pizza and Grill in the mall at Grease Ridge. He saw quiet right
down to the arcade because what's his name is from Rochester. He was joined
the band they already in existence. It was sort of like Tommy Burnett was
part of modern English. I'll stop the world melt with you. He had
auditioned, they loved him. He came in and became a replacement guitarist.
There's a guy from Rochester, I forget his name, in a lot of
bands around here. Became the drummer in Quiet Riot. And they came to
the arcade and played the least singer or wigged down to his ass. There
seemed to be like fifty people in the bar. Wasn't packed at all.
Yeah, and I was twenty four okay, waity five so that was ninety
so yeah. But this song is a cover. Did you know that?
It's by a British band originally in the seventhes. I don't think it.
Yeah, it's a cover and I forget the name of the band that originally
did it. But I love this. When I was a kid, I
mean this came on. Oh yeah, this was I was cranking my bootbo
crank well and your old radio station, the two for Tuesdays they play this
and metal Health. Yes, yes, that was it. Uh, here's
something from yesterday. No, what's that? This is it? Why is
it that when the sun blacks out on a Monday afternoon, it's called the
eclipse and everybody gets excited and skips work and gets cool sunglasses to watch it.
But when I black out on a Monday afternoon, I have a problem.
If the sun can black out on a Monday afternoon, then guess what?
So can we remember that everybody? Happy Monday? Happy Monday Monday.
Did you drink yesterday? Uh? Yeah? I had the clips beers made
by Robach. I had wine over at my wine and Cheese bar, and
then I went to JoJo's and I had more wine. I had Spanish wine
there, and I had a Pinot noir over at the JoJo's along with my
salad, my wedge salad, a romain grilled romaine salad amazing, and then
a chicken wood fire pizza. How many bottles of wine? H? Two?
No? I think I had maybe three glasses of wine. Bottle of
wine four? Well, well, hang on a second. You might be
right, because I think I was having nine ounce pores every everywhere. Now
we'll ask you nine or six. Have you noticed that a lot of girls
asked me that before nine or six? Yeah? Yeah, no, do
you not do that? I've had that happen in multiple places. We just
have a level that we poured to for all the wie. Yeah. So
they'll say to you do you want nine or six at these places? And
some people will say at sixty nine six or nine? Well, why didn't
you come back that? Depending on the bartender, see how far it gets
you? Right? Would you like nine? Should I be asking you this
question? So there's all these allegations with the p Diddy, and I'm trying
to get somebody from up Rocks to come on and sort of explain exactly what
is happening what's not happening. But there's been a video that's circulating of Justin
Bieber when he was very young at a Diddy party. Well it's video and
they're giving him drinks and he's clearly underage, and people are alleging that night
he was taking advantage of sexually and by either Diddy or somebody in his crow.
That's what they're leading you to believe. I have no idea if this
is true or not. This is a song that's now circulating that people are
saying is Justin Bieber. But we know the world we live in with AI,
so it's very hard to tell. But as somebody wrote on my Facebook
page, I hope this is real. This is the song just listen to
it because it sounds legit. I didn't know that, how did go?
I was in a fun fubby but got me way more than muscle wasn't more
save oh the girl walking the Saints. So he never asked say sorry,
does myself third party? Now this just came out, I guess. I
mean, I I can't last week, I can't find anything to show me
if it's a legitimate song or not. I'm only seen clips of it on
TikTok and other social media platform and believe it. But I go if you
can't find it on Google or something. I don't know related to Justin Bieber.
I saw a clip of him not too long ago, let's say two
muths where he's just walking into his apartment complex and there's thirty people down there.
I mean like there's a parade just waiting get a picture of him,
and he's like, this is my house? Can you back up? Who
is it? Justin? Yeah? Justin? I mean those bigger stars,
they just have a ton of people twenty four to seven, right, So
if there was something that happened like that that he was making a song,
well, can you buy it on Spotify or anything like that I haven't looked.
Okay, I don't have a Spotify account, I don't know Amazon the
name. I didn't even look. Uh did he party? Did he party?
Yeah? I mean it's kind of catchy. I kind of like it.
Party did not. Yeah. Years ago, there's rumor that he had
a fourteen year old at one of his parties. Yeah. That finally came
out and said, Yeah, I was there and I was tired, and
all of a sudden, I had a drink and then I fell asleep in
his bedroom. And you don't see him anymore because he was the same.
You're starting to come around again. But you're right, he was correctly.
Yeah, but I don't think they could really pen any I see, here's
the here's the problem. Like, you know, we we had Bill Cosby,
who I think you know, a mirror shod Yes, local comic,
I say, local comic. Great. I think this kid is really sharp.
I think he has a joke that goes, uh yeah, I woke
up in the middle of the night. He goes and there's the Cosby show
on, and I go, holy shit, they builded it again, like
snuck it in the middle of the night kind of thing. But all there
was like sixty I'm doing the joke disservice, but I thought it was pretty
clever. And I thought, but there's sixty three women or something that came
out, you know, with all the same story, so not all the
same store bill, just get I just had the jello and the jello popping
and the thing I was on the stage and they wanted my autograph for the
next thing, you know, where they wake up and the kind of funny
in the fanny. So it's it's I again. You know, who knows
where the real stuff live. I feel bad for people who are victims because
having been a victim of something and it does fuck you up and you do
feel like nobody believes you. And I wasn't was it someone famous in my
life? But if it's somebody famous, they got power and the power.
And now it's possible sex trafficking, traffickingting, yes, yes, I mean
that in itself is just terrible. Not only that the people that are buying
for underach kids, yeah, you know, in the pedophilia I mean,
and now they're trying to I don't want to say who it is, politics
are trying to put a spin on what exactly it is, and to make
it not so bad your child and if you're doing some with a child,
there's something wrong with you in case closes in my opinion, yes, but
I mean just in terms of anything. Now, like you you have to
ask, right, I mean, if you've sort of got to be a
little more, uh, you can't assume because there's too far, too often
where somebody gets drunk at a party and gets a little loose all of a
sudden there you know, they seem a little into whatever, and so you
wind up maybe sleeping with them, and then they regret it the next day
and say you took advantage of me. Now they do right years ago,
it was just like ye don't tell anybody. So there is a I want
to give you this little quiz. Ask men. Okay, So ask men
has fantasies that men have, oh and the likelihood of their partner agreeing to
them according to this, according to ask man, being a bartender for many
years and a strip bar, dj I have heard. Okay, but they
give you so they'll give you the likeliness rating. So it will be so
many out of ten, three out of ten, five out of ten,
eight point five out of ten. Whatever it is, so the first one
they have here is threesome, and they say, oh, I didn't tell
you I almost had a threesome last week. Really yeah, oh I had
two no shows even a partner watching. So they say the idea of having
a threesome so often it is hard for someone in a relationship to swado.
That's what they say. So you want to invite someone else into the bed
with us, they'll say, so I'm not sexy enough for you. Huh.
Even a partner watching porn can be threatening. So what do you think
that? What would you say the likelihood out of ten is eight? Eight?
You think it's eight out of ten? Yes, you think if you
ask, you get eight out of ten. What heading out of the age
right now? Yeah, like twenty five to forty Okay, I would put
it eight out of ten. After forty, well, I'm thinking this is
aimed ask men. Is probably aimed at that age group right there, Probably
twenty five to thirty five year old guys, right maybe twenty one? Yeah,
okay. They say the likeliness rating is three out of ten, three
out of ten, three out of ten. Anal sex another fantasy that many
men have had. If you're a guy, this is much less likely to
be an issue if you're you know, in a same sex relationship, but
if you're dating a woman, it can be another story not mending or into
it. The likely is rating. What do you think it is out of
ten according to ask men for a woman to get to agree to agree?
I would say seven or eight seven at point five out of ten seven point
five out of ten. Now I've got a great trick for that. Just
say it. So, guys, if you're trying, then she just so
you get some moisturize lotion before you go to bed. You give her a
nice BackRub, okay, and then give her a butt rub. Yeah,
and d extra moisturize your lotion down what all a sudden you're snuggling, you
don't have to reach for the you don't drop a digit in there. No,
you just all right, I got you? Or for later night you're
just rolling around and you're slipping a slide again, just say it and then
that doesn't come back to bite you as not. No, all right?
Uh? Watching the masturbaate, what do you think the likelihood of that is?
Watching the master bait? I think that I think that's more of an
eight or nine yeah, nine out of ten. Yeah, yeah, watching
them with someone else, Watching them with someone else, I would go four
four out of ten. This is an interesting one according to ask Men,
and one of your partner isn't necessarily likely to understand it first, but they
may not feel super threatened by it either. According to them, it says
it's something many people can get can get their heads around. They would be
the one with someone else, not you. Therefore, so this actually happening
is unlikely unless you really, really really really want to do it. Two
out of ten, So they say two out of ten filming them Now.
I have had women who've been on the podcast say men have asked if they
could film, and they say no. Everybody's walking around with a camera in
your pocket. And this is the thing, Like I guys think thirty years
ago when you just had the VHS, Yeah, I think the number would
be higher, but now trust issues. Yeah I would probably two. Okay,
two or three. Well, here's the thing. This could be regarded
as lots of fun. But I just know not from personal history. But
do you have a film somewhere? Do we have? Oh? Yeah,
somewhere, Dougie, Oh why not? Dougie does dibby, but I have
I have it. It's not out there all right, oh you do or
a joke if you because on the podcast and I'm in the community, you
gotta be real careful with what or who you say it too, because you
don't want to offend anybody and you get the wrong person, that's just gonna
you know, grab a torch and sound the kong and you know, tell
everybody what a terrible person you are. Right, you know you don't want
that either. Uh. They say here, this could be a lot of
fun, but as possible that your partner may be a bit wary of having
naked footage of them on a digital device. Okay, But on the other
hand, these days most everyone has smartphones with high resolution cameras built in them.
This may filming yourselves very easy and very easy to delete afterward. So
they give it an eight and a half out of ten, eight and a
half out of ten, and I don't know, like twenty five to forty.
I gotta think, well, this is what I'm assuming ask men is
sort of aimed at in terms of men. So up now. Woman on
the podcast thirty eight years Old had guys ask if they could do that she
always claims she declined it. But I wonder how many don't even ask.
You just set up it like a phone somewhere in your room, and you
just that's a little harder. Okay, I'm gonna just no, you just
put it on and leave it on. Yeah, yeah, I feel that's
not under the rape category, but uh, it's under the fucking creep category.
You're a creep. And then but now look, I've not been on
any of these dating sites, but I hear tinders more of a hookup,
so you go on a tender date. I have not been on tender day.
Somebody could, who knows what's going on. Role Playing was another one.
You Oh I do wait, come on, Genghis Khm, Abraham Lincoln,
Charles Barkley. Oh yeah, the whole spectrum of you're bullshitting. I
am bullshitting role playing? Would you ever do it? I knew a guy
who had a girlfriend. Yess yes, I mean it's kind of like acting.
All right, let me ask you this one. I had a buddy
who I think he married. He was married, and she had this.
I don't even like saying the word because it's the reality of the word is
awful. But she had rape fantasies, and so she wanted him to like
pop out of bushes and like rap her and all this, and he just
he's like I just a lot of trust, but you like he he felt
like he didn't want to be the you know what I'm saying. Yeah,
so role playing, I guess, I mean someone you're bartending in DJing in
California, there were swinger parties, yes, and they would be that all
the time in big mansions, but sometimes they were and I would hear this
from some of the girls, and different rooms had different themes, right,
and there were bouncers and people to make sure every you know, if you
said stop or yeah, get out of control, and that was one of
them. They had a spot. Yeah, you know, how do you
get that job? I don't know, but I mean just to come in,
you know, just one if the guy that goes wait wait, wait
wait, you look like you really were enjoying it. I I you're not
supposed to turn blue during this. And the wrong room it's called the blue
room. I don't know. Uh. They say nine out of ten fantasy
play including dress up, spiced up your sex, Like yeah, I mean
I don't yeah, I think that's different than well, they're taking to rip
your clothes off? Well, right right, right, right up? Yeah,
you dress up? I mean, look, how many people like Halloween.
I have a buddy. I had a buddy who admitted that he used
to get very turned on when he would have his wife dress up. He
bought her a super Girl out without a doubt. Do you ever see Bad
Girl? Yeah, but all of a sudden, you're David Burnette. Now
you got a right head. Couldn't bang? I couldn't bang. I think
to a character, it's like, come on, it wasn't a cartoon character.
It's a comic. Huh, it's a comic. I don't know.
I think I could do a couple of superheroes. Poison Ivy, She's gonna
leap your in a single bound. I'd paint my dick green and be like,
there's a cry. Ever, oh yeah, you can have some fun
with that. And this article gives you tips on how to introduce fantasy and
all kinds of I just thought that was sort of interesting in terms of have
you ever seen the dice? What? And no, there's a set of
dice and his kiss hug lick on one and all this and then it has
different body parts. No, yeah, you roll just kind of it starts
from something as as simple as that. Where do they sell that creepy corner
no, show world like that stores? Do you have them? Yeah?
You do? And do you use them? No? Why not? Because
she's in my bedroom Marry Roads. Yeah, but have you ever It actually
kind of sounds like it could be fun. Uh you know, I don't
think so. Now are the rules where you go whoa, whoa, whoa?
Not doing that? No, it's it's one of the starter things.
Okay, it's a starter thing. I think I got it as a gay
gifter. Was given to me as a gay gift sometime. Yeah, fan
of forever. Yeah, I'll dig them up. You know they're in the
sock drawer. I'm sure they are next to the ky from nineteen fifty seven
and the sock that's stiff and could stand up on its own. I got
it. I got it. That's how I know how to do laundry.
I start jerking off in dress socks. All right, Well there you go,
there's your fantasies. Well, uh, we'll take it. And that
was it. That was well, they just I just there were just a
couple of them, threesomes and all that stuff. But the swinging thing is
always one that I could think of. Watching him with a different partner might
happen more on vacations where you meet a couple from Minnesota and uh, you
know, you have a few drinks and the wife let's experiment or be watched
or something with somebody. I'll tell you what I think that the wife is
usually driving that train. Yeah, don't you man like in charge? Because
if she's not comfortable anything, and the guy can probably get excited about pretty
much anything. Yeah, but she's got to be, you know, all
in on that stuff. And really, is this a porn fantasy where you
the guy and on vacation. At one point I think, don't forget your
dad listens. God, yeah, I'm actually letting loose a little bit.
I don't want to hear it from my father. All Right, we will.
If a girl dressed up as Elvis, I probably wouldn't be able to
do that. She dressed up love it is now, she dressed up as
Persill. You know what. There is a there's a movie, gosh,
I'll have to look at it called Love Stinks, and the woman that played
in it actually married. The actress married Pete Sanferds in real life. But
there's a part in the movie where she's trying to make up with her boyfriend
or get him to get a ring, and she comes out in this Elvis
outfit and it's pretty hot. Well yeah, but she's clearly not I was
in the movie. Not an Elvis wig. Yes, but yeah Elvis wig
jumps suit with her, saying I'll find it at her break. Yeah,
you'll like it, all right. Something happened in one of the broadcasts of

I went through the barber shopping. He clips my hair. Carolyn told that
better? Who did Carolyn Fidelian, friend of mine. She's sent me a
joke and she begged me not to post it. I can talk about it
well, speaking of that. So uh. A Mexican news station was covering
the eclipse. Oh okay, as soon as it gets dark, we're crossing
the border. Oh no, those tres go here. Here it is.
So this is on TMZ and you can go see it. I'm not going

to see. All right, see if you can get over here. All
right, take a look at this. Ready, here we go, Fomilia.
Somebody hung their balls right in front of it, and you could see
like pupes and this one one woman's looking at her phone. The other one
was like looking around, like because some guy thought it was funny to go
over and just lower his balls in front of like a studio light. That
that looked like with the camera, it looked like the eclipse. And I
I go, I get it. But that's how you get fucking fired.
That's how you get That's how you get out of it. I don't care
if it's I don't care where you are in the world. That's not flying
anymore, that it's not flying. That was the thing I go. Not
an accident, not an accident at all. But you know, did you
ever have because you're you're sort of in charge of the bar when you're over
right, Yeah, I mean do you have people that work for you under
now? No? Okay, yeah, because has anybody at work ever kind
of screwed up and you've had to cover for them or oh not where I
am now, but yeah, past places. Yeah, because I go out
today it's beautiful day, and I go out and I sit in the back.
There's benches. You can overlook the canal that's not full, and it's
just kind of ugly looking right now. And the town that we're in is
out and they're power washing. And they got two guys and they're gonna powerwash
the brick that's down where the boat's dock. In this town, you can
rent the boat slip for the nights. I think it's like fifteen bucks a
night. So one guy goes, he goes, hey, he goes,
turn up the throttle on the on the motor and they have a scrubbing machine
and then he can change it out to a wand to do the thing.
He goes, turn up the throttle and the guy goes does something. He
goes, no, the other way. The guy does something again. He
goes, come over here and hold this, and I go, have you
ever been at work where you go? I gotta fucking do it myself,
right, Just do it myself all the time. Put it down and walk
away. Yeah, put it down, walk away, And I go,
this is uh. I was watching these guys and it made me laugh and
I felt a little bad. But I'm going it's not just me, right,
because he's going turn the throttle up. He goes, you know what
throttle is? Right? And I don't know. It didn't look like a
young kid I don't. I mean, college isn't out yet, so washer
there's only the on button and the throttle right. But sometimes this could have
been an older machine. I couldn't see the machine. I could only see
because they I know, And usually just the throttle would be I mean,
god, I used to have to hit the throttle in my car, I
have to lift the hood because it would get stuck and it would just be
rare and I would have no idea how to do that and I had to
pull that back. Yeah, all the time with cars, I was okay
because I so when I was they called him back in the day, were
you a year ahead? No? I was not. And but I took
a year off from college, and my father was very worried that my brain
was going to just turn to mush because I was on the radio, and
I was on the radio form midnight, and he used to listen because he
was getting his doctorate a little later in life from Fordham, So he would
drive up from the Bronx two hours to where we lived, and he would
hear me on the radio, and he used to just say he just make
sure that I got there. But I'd be quoting Rolling Stone magazine and he
was rolling stone is becoming your Bible. Let me tell you something. I
want you to do a tune up on your car. I want you to
go buy this book and do a tune up on your car. So if
anybody knows Subaru suber Us are great, right, they'll run forever. I've
had a couple in my life as used cars, right, use cars.
I even got one that my youngest son refers to for my middle son,
that is, he calls it the Lego because it looks like it's a twenty
year old car, but it runs fine. So I had to go do
a tune up on this. And it was an aluminum engine, like you
could push your thumb and leave a thumbprint an indentation with your thumb in the
engine. Especially. Yeah, so I don't know why they did this.
This was some what was like an eighty six or something. Now this is
like the early nineties. So I go to do this tune up at the
request of my old man to learn to do it, and I wind up
stripping the threads where the spark plugs go. So now I gotta go pay
somebody to rethread and I go just fucking do it, not doing it.
I stripped it once, but I had no idea. I had never worked
with an illuminum entione. I like the older cars because everything is accessible,
you can get to them, you can change your own oil, you can
do your breaks. A lot of people still do their breaks. It's harder
to change oil today because from what I understand, the cars are designed and
the engineers are told this is the space you have to put the motor right,
and so now they've got to do that. And I know nothing about,
you know, the electric cars. Working on an electric car, I
wouldn't know. Does my mechanical fixer uppers He sometimes looks on YouTube for the
new cars coming out. Yeah, you've got to and they've did. But
the elector a lot of like Tesla. I'm pretty sure it's on a Mercedes
chassis. So if you took it to somebody and you had a ball bearing
issue or something, they can usually work on that. But anything beyond that,
I would take it to probably the Tesla stuff, but the chassis and
Mercedes chassis. I tell you what mechanics, doctors and lawyers get. Can
I just ask you a quick question turns into half an hour. I've talked
to all three and like, well, I have this noise, well you
know, bring it in. Well it's like this lump on my back exactly.
You know, I got this rash. I keep itching and you know
you're at a dinner party. You have a drake like, guys like,
what do you want me to tell you? I can't tell you until you
come into office. I can't tell you what's wrong with your car until you
bring it in. Is that what they say to you? Yeah? Oh,
or what I've overheard. Yeah, but but do you have a half
hour conversation with these guys. No, but I've told I've been told.
Oh, this is a common question I got. You know, I just
have a quick question. Yeah, it turns into a half hour. There
is no quick question, quick question with those three. Oh that they get
that. You get your lawyer friends, right. Ah. I was hanging
out of a bar. Oh you're a lawyer? Can I ask you something
real quick? And he's like, I'm just you know, having a drink,
playing quick draw. No, No, let's just be quick Q.
And next thing you know, it's Tamphire Layer and you're trying to get him
out. Yeah. Yeah, what about bartenders? You give advice? That's
more listening. I don't say anything. Listening is a great skill. Yeah,
people just confide in me, especially uber riders, just as much as
people of the bar. But having in the car, there's nobody interrupts you
or you have to go make another drink, right, you know what I
mean? So I don't say anything. I just sit there listening, and
that a lot of times people will tell me I can't believe I'm telling you
this. I'm like, well, you know, just to be a good
listener, you don't. You don't need an answer. You just gotta get
off your chest. And that helps a problem of time. I feel as
long as if you can talk it out and get off your chest, yeah,
you'll probably come up with the right answer that you want to do just
by hearing it aloud. Can you think of the deepest, darkest secret if
somebody has ever told you? Oh, and if you say it, it
would, But have there been I don't want you to necessarily say it because
somebody may listen and go, hey, I even if it was twenty years
ago, that motherfucker you And I'm just saying and here's the thing that I
always said to like when I would talk about family, No I'm not doing
anything to identify you. I believe the situation is a human situation that many
people can relate to. That's why I'm bringing it up. But this is
a little different because a lot of times it's personal, but people really like
tell you deep dark secrets. No, none of my friends, but I
pope complete strangers at a bar they've cheated on their wife or the husband.
Yeah, that's happened at least seven times. Seven times, yeah, over
twenty five years. Yeah. Okay. Have you ever when a woman says
to you, I cheated on my husband. Do you think that that's her
way of sort of hinting that she's available and not someone that told me she
was drunk and just I it was an old friend I hadn't seen a long
time, okay, And I think she just had one too many, and
I think she was going to get in trouble or she thought something was going
to go down. And she's almost in tears. Yeah, and she's like,
oh, I've had some problems and I ended up cheating on him,
but I think I'm gonna have to come clean now and come clean to him.
Yeah, was he figuring it out? I think she was just scared.
That's the right adje of apprehensive that he was going to find out.
Well, people who cheat, okay, do you and I don't know.
Again, I'm just saying that you overhear conversations and sometimes maybe you've overheard people
even talking about cheating. Do the people who cheat, like when they stay
in the relationship, are they sometimes faithful after that? You think? Forever?
I've known people who have gotten caught, have GANDI counseling and have stayed
married for very A couple of people that I know they've cheated maybe thought the
grass was greener on the other side or the waters were better, and they're
like, yeah, what the fuck was I thinking? Terrible? Did they
leave one person for another and it didn't know? They came back to their
original original Yeah, head over heels and things were a lot better. Yeah,
And I think sometimes in relationship that might be beds say that that's not
bad. Well, Jamie did a joke. Jamie Lissau won't get to that.
Oh, well, but he did a joke that my mom was there.
My mom is seventy six years old. She and my father are no
longer together. And his thing is like, you know, marriage was never
meant to last this long. People didn't live as long as we're living now,
right. I mean, we had people that we heard today. And
if you go and find the guy that interviews people that are older, there's
ninety three, there's ninety five. There's all this stuff. And I see
in my mother. I've always said that. I've always said that, you
know that you do now. I when I lived in Pittsford, there was
a diamonally across from me was an old cemetery and I once went down and
walked there with my guys, my sons, and the average age was thirty
two or thirty five death. Yeah, well the people who died in that
cemetery, and this was like the eighteen hundreds, so not that long ago
when you're talking about the history of the world, not that long ago.
So now the life expectancy and it's dropping. They're finding more and more young
people. They're finding this may be good for you. They're finding younger people
aging faster, and by that, they're finding more corectal cancers in young people.
I believe that's what Kate Middleton has been diagnosed with was coorectal cancer,
which is something that usually is somebody at least twenty years older than she is
currently. Well, you know what, sometimes it could be dieting. What
are they putting in our water? Yeah, I kind of believe that.
Okay, the steroids they put in uh, chickens and bulls to beef up
the meat or even seafood, that could be get the wrong mixture in your
body. And that very well could be. I I do wonder if a
lot of the sugars that we eat, the crap that we eat, the
things that are out there that but I don't know. I mean, Kate
Middleton's diye could be fantastic. Who knows. But they are saying that the
people they lung cancer never smoked a sick right, Yes, there are obscure
things like that. Yeah, so sorry, staying married. I mean,
don't you get a new car every ten years or so? You know some
people you might really like your car. I just want to ride in this
Ferrari, not all the time, just I just kind of want to see
how it feels. But I know I'm gonna have this car, and I
really like my car. Yes, you know, so, I mean I'm
just gonna look at that car. The question is, is the guy who's
never been married. Yeah. Do you look at marriage and think that it's
it's an obscure dated Uh, No, I don't think so. No,
I don't want to believe that. I think there should be more marriage,
more parental core. Yes, I understand that would help the world. But
I mean, I think if you could have people that are pretty actively involved
in a kid's life, there's something under the same roof, being under the
same roof as my youngest son, I can see. Yeah, I feel
that for sure. Yeah, for sure. But I'm just as curious as
you. I've had friends that have been married and I'm fifty three. I've
had a few older friends if they're close to celebrating their fifteenth anniversary. Yeah.
And I've had friends that have been married twenty years. They got divorced
and it is a job. And I've been told that by all my married
friends. I had a joke that I'm fifty three years old, I've never
been married, and I play a lot of golf. Well, listen to
and the reason I never got married because I play golf with all my married
friends. I get to hear all their wonderful stories. Yeah, you do
listen to this, lady from that same thing that we didn't play this old?
Are you ninety five? What's your secret for looking so great at ninety
five? Being negative? I'm a positive person. I don't worry about tomorrow.
It's a present that's amazing. So you think that's the secret for staying
young is being positive? I really do not for everybody. My husband was
positive. It didn't work for him. When did he pass away almost forty
years ago? I guess I'm not positive when it comes to that. What
is something you regret the most in your life and you loved the most about
your husband? Oh, he was fantastic. He was loving, he was
honest, gave me three wonderful sons. He was just a fantastic man in
every every way. What is something you really wanted to say to your past
husband that you never got a chance to tell him? Maybe I didn't tell
him I loved him enough because he said it all the time. So if
you could go back in time and have a conversation with your younger self,
what would you tell her that I was lucky enough for him to find me,
and I'm so happy that I had at least thirty nine years. So
she's gone almost as long without him, then actually longer without him, and
she's had she had with him, but maybe not right if you're married thirty
nine years, maybe you dated two years, so you could be forty two
but almost all equal equal, And he left that much of an impression because
I wonder had he stayed as alive, if that would be a different story
at the end. Oh, he was great for the first forty years,
but after that the sun of a picture is truly crazy. Yes, Ponzi
scheme. Yeah, golf and pickleball, right right, Well, I don't
know, it's just it's a uh. I think you need a good core,
but I think you also need your time away from each other, whether
it's be go out for a bowling league or she's got book club, yeah,
or vice versa. Right, you gotta have some Yeah. Chris Rock
used to say, I want to drop you off and have you come home
with a new story. Drop you off in the middle of nowhere, come
home with a new story. I've heard all your stories, but I I
I don't know. I'm never sure myself when I look at things, and
then you know, when I see people who have had affairs, some people
have gone and they've found a new couple, and I've known people who have
been blissfully happy in that. I've known other people who you go, well,
to your point, it wasn't as green over here as I thought it
was, And so there's there's that aspect of it. I don't know.
I don't know in terms of all of it. It's a very it's a
very delicate. But I figure, I'm fifty three, fifty four. If
I meet somebody tomorrow, we probably won't get married till fifty six. Yeah,
and I only got a couple of years before she retires. And where
am I going after this? So I'll find the right girl sooner or later.
You can just stay single? Is that what you're trying to say?
I think I'll get married sooner or later? You do? Why not?
Okay? Yeah, I still haven't found the right girl. Yeah, I
don't know missus Wright or missus right now. There's a shot clock though,
this doomsday clock that's going on. I think it was yesterday God's flashlight.

and gentlemen, welcome to the Carlson Comedy Club. At this time, please
turn off your cell phones, keep the talking to a minimum. Here he
comes the admiral of the airwaves, the funniest guy this side of the Mississippi,
mister bimon. So, Doug did a whole this is the song they
bring me up to. They start every comedy show. A comedy is a
Carlson that way and it fits. It works great. Yeah. So Doug
did a practice video. He was practicing and he videoed, and he sent
me the video and then some Kevin from the podcast goes, you're a dick
because I posted it and he and I said, I asked, and he
goes, yeah, and what if he said no, I go he did?
I asked again. I asked again, I go. Come on.
Now, I wasn't going to put any of your jokes out because that's your
currency, right, and that would be robbing. I feel like a little
bit be cheating. So I thought just the intro is nothing. But I
was so entertained by just the intro. You got to go to my Facebook
page. It's facebook dot com slash I think it's Bill dot Meranimal was my
slash Bill dot miranimal on Facebook. And if you go there and you scroll
down, you will see Doug in is well, you'll see me and I'm
introducing it and he was split screen and you can see Bill covering his mouth
trying not to laugh at me. He's not laughing at me, he's laughing,
and you throw a blanket that's in the way over your shoulder, like
I don't even know why I was annoying you, And then I just made
me laugh so hard that I go I loved. I love that there's film
and there's t I mean we talked about people filming sex right. Yeah,
I don't know where you would watch that for pleasure And if somebody felt awkward
on the screen or they didn't know their body looked like that from the you
know, a different angle. I get it, But what are you gonna
do? You break down tape? Hey, you know what when you do
this and the third car forward, if you just reach back here, you
know that. I don't know. But with the comedy stuff, you can
kind of see the timing, the rhythm. You can hear the jokes.
You can hear even your own speech pattern. Do I need to slow down
so they speed up? Do I hit this joke right? Am? I
emphasizing the right word, And I think it's a smart thing to do.
But I also got a great laugh out of the fact that you played the
fucking intro music. You had it on your boombox around it I laptop,
I was, and I did the whole thing. And yeah, not only
that, the time because they ask you how much time you're going to do
on stage? I was with it was me and I go, I'm gonna
do fourteen minutes, and they kind of looked at me. Fourteen minutes.
I'm like, well, is it when you when I hit the stage or
when I grab the mic? Well? How much time? All right?
Let me They said originally ten to twelve minutes, but I didn't know if
they added into hey, thanks everybody for coming to the Carl great night it
does, or if it starts the first joke, No, it's okay,
it's your time. You got it. And I'm like, if it's a
minute one way or the other, well, see this is why you don't
you never honest in that stuff. Yeah, because they no one can tell
time, right, I mean, you start doing things that are timed,
like I'm pretty good after a million fucking years in that dumb business called radio
that I could sit there and read a thirty second script and know that I'm
I'm pretty close, right, I'd be within a second or two. Same
thing with sixty, so you get that timing down. Same thing with comics.
I mean you can kind of get that, but you're talking about people
who are they just didn't want to hear what they want to hear that night.
Their whole focus is on their set. So if anybody ever asked that,
he said she was going to be about twenty and yeah, Greg Owens
the head, Yeah, so I would go I would just have said about
ten or twelve, yeah, and then get up there. And if you
do fourteen fourty, you know what I did? Get flashed? Oh well
because yeah, because because you told them what you were going to do,
they asked, No, I understand that. But my point is, if
you said, so I once opened for Bobby Slayton, do you know Bobby
I was an MC I was not opening for let me rephrase that pick because
everybody goes fucking nuts when you say something like that. I don't feels,
but do you understand? So I'm m seeing the show I did seventeen minutes
up front? Wow? Yeah, terrible, terrible? Why because you shouldn't
do that. No, No, they're not there, it's just you and
they're not there to see me. It wasn't just me and him, there
was somebody else, but they're not there. It wouldn't matter they're not there.
So when you're told ten to twelve minutes, you got to do your
best to try to keep it there, especially when because you're not you're not
the Guy. It's not your show, you know what I'm saying, Especially
when you're like the MC, because they've got and it does throw everything off.
Then if they're doing another show. So I did seventeen minutes of the
Guy, because go say, hey, he did seventeen minutes, and I'm
like, oh, it's all there. But I think Bobby didn't give a
shit, and it might have been the late show that I did it.
But I would say that the better thing to do and is to always,
like almost like any business when you're starting out, mind your p's and q's,
you know that that would be the thing. Or tell them what they
want to hear. And if you go fourteen minutes, it's really not that
big a deal. But you don't want to tell him that because then they're
gonna be all paradigm. Well, should I take some time off? I'll
take some time off my I've had, I've seen that happen. Well,
listen, I'll just take some time off because a lot of times they'll go,
hey, we've got a show timed and so and so is here.
They want to do a guest spot. Great, how much time are they
going to do? Five minutes? Well five minutes is really seven because you
get up there and if it's somebody who's known in a comedy club, let's
say, not that it'll ever happen here, but Chappelle drops by, Hey,
I want to try out some new jokes. Nobody's heard these before.
I'm coming to it. I turn into fifteen to a half an hour.
Well, it depends on that guy. That guy, but let's say you
know, Kevin Meanie when he was alive, used to come up here every
Tuesday night, and Kevin would work on new material so you could come and
see him. And I am seed a lot of those shows, and I
would always keep it really tight because I knew his time. I don't I
think some nights he drove back to Terrytown, which was like a four or
five hour drive. Where's Terrytown down by New York City? Yeah? Yeah,
So So my point is, if you're starting I would just keep it
or just tell him what they want to hear, because everybody freaks the fuck
out and then all looking for the Yeah, that's the last thing I want
to do. It just you know, supposed to be finish, supposed to
be realized. I know. But they want to come at you like,
hey, hey, you know why I didn't do that. God Doug did
fourteen minutes and he told me he was only twelve. I told him,
it's like that extra one hundred and twenty seconds fucks everything up. Well,
in reality, we can sit here and say no, Well, when it's
in somebody's head, yeah, it does. It focks him up. And
then and you don't want to be that guy. I don't want you don't
want to be that guy. But how to go? It went? It
went great. Everybody had a great time. I went with. I went
the night before. So joe Linley to my friend Joey dancing, who owns
illuminating expression distributions. It's it's joe dancing dan Zing. Yeah, not dan
Zig, No dancing like the band the band, This is dan Zing.
Yeah, that's what I do when I get drunk, dancing. Yeah,
you stepped right into that ship. You stepped right, But I've been butchering
her her place. It's illuminating expressions, distributions. And she came in the
show with me. We talked uh. Wednesday, we went to see uh
Joel and then she brought her her friend Kristen Thursday and my folks came in
in a bunch of other people and it was great. They had two hundred
and twenty seven people Thursday, which I thought was amazing. That's a great
size. You know, the music starts and it's showtime, and it was
you know, did you get up there? Did you forget anything? No,
because I practiced practice, just like I'm in the show. Yeah,
and I'm looking at Tommy good. I think the last joke could have went
a little longer, but there was something new, but it got some laughs
about picking people up from the casino. Yes, I'd love that, and
then picking up people from the hospital. They both have the same look,
and it's you know, what, what did your old man say? Oh
he had a great time? Good? Yeah, all right, now,
Joel Linley was Joel Linley. Jamie Lissau was in town. Yes, Jamie
was on the podcast as a mystery guest via the phone. I've known Jamie
more of a casually. I don't I mean, we don't think we ever
really hung out. But we did some comedy shows together when he was starting
out. Uh, Tommy Muley would put some things together and we would do
that, and then he would pop up everyone in a while. And now
did he start out as a comic or just working on the radio and then
he got into No, he did comedy first. He was a comic,
So he was a comic. He dropped out of law school and started just
pursuing comedy. He really wanted to do it. He was hanging around the
club. Tommy would take him on these other little jaunts out to the sticks
as we would call it, Letchworth Pines, these other places, and we
would do comedy out there and Jamie would I remember Letchworth Pie was doing a
lot of things. Are they still open? I don't know, So Jamie
Jamie would do that and then the way James. So then all of a
sudden Jamie started doing more writing and doing some other things and he got on
the Tonight Show. He sent his stuff out and that kind of helped him
get some more a room work and he was on the Tonight Show, I
think a couple times, and maybe some other late night talk shows, and
they had to be featuring at that time by the time it was on Tonight's
Show. And then he was yeah, and then he was he was Schneider.
Yeah. Then he met No No before this, so then he was
doing that, and then a radio thing happened here, so they were putting
together a new show and they wanted it, so they brought him in and
he was looking to kind of have a home base. He married a woman
from Alaska. Her dad owned a comedy club. Oh yeah, and they
fell in love and so that was that and sixteen years and then I think
that when he was moving back to Alaska, she found someone new he was
moving there, so he lives there now because they have kids together. But
then after the radio thing dissolved, he went out and back on the road
doing a lot more and met up with Rob Schneider and then they became buddies
and he was writing. They wrote a movie together, and they wrote The
Real Rob Show on Netflix, and Jamie's in it. You can see Jamie
a lot on there. And then the guy thing and the gut Feld thing.
Dude, holy shit, I mean I was amazed at the impact of
Fox News, Like he's selling out shows, but afterwards he doesn't go out
in the hallway. And I don't know if this was because I went to
the early show, but he would go up on stage and people would buy
t shirts and things, and he would have the guy who was opening for
him sort of help him set up, and then that guy would kind of
go to the room. But Mark was great because you need somebody like a
market allido to move that line along, and he did and they turned that
room over, and then Jamie came in. I was in the green room
with my mom and my buddy Kevin Foodie, and Jamie came in and we
talked about his sugar free jerky and his Seltzer water that he had and his
rider. His mom came back. I felt like I was kind of in
the way there. His mom took a picture with him, and I don't
even know if Jamie had seen his mom up to that point. Oh,
and then we all kind of left together and he went and did the show.
But I fucked this up. It was a comedy of hers and I
fucked this up because you and I had talked about going to see Jamie.
You wanted to meet Jamie because you wanted to see if he remembered you from
the Olympia rest. Yeah, and I wasn't sure if I was good.
We had talked about going to the Late Show and then we were laughing too
hard for my video, and then I thought, I'm not sure I'm going
to go because my mom's coming into town. And then I had pretty much
thought it was a dead deal because of that. So then my buddy Kevin
Foodie writes me and says, Hey, the guy opening up for Jamie and
it's just that guy and Jamie. That was all. Was I enough for
Joel Literley too? Okay? Yeah, he goes, I know him through
whatever he goes. I've known him for years. He goes, I want
to go check it out, and I said, all right, and he
goes, my girlfriend's gonna be at some silent disco. It's girls night or
whatever. Okay, So then he went and that was he went to the
show. So I so then I'm like, we're talking, and I said,
I don't know what my mom's plans are. So my mom's plans kept
changing because my son's track me. Now, I always thought my kid was
giving me bullshit with the track meat stuff that he goes Dad, They're so
unorganized. It's never this, never that, this is the college level division
two this uh he is supposed to be Saturday. They delay it till Sunday.
So now my mom's not coming up till Saturday. So I was kind
of waiting to see I said to her, listen, if you get here
in time, we'll go to the comedy show. So then I did she
have a good time. Yeah, yeah, so I So then I completely
forget about Doug. I go and buy tickets for me, my buddy Foodie,
and my mom. And then Doug calls me at six point fifteen from
the comedy club. Sold they're sold out, and he goes, you got
tickets already, and I go yeah. He goes, oh oh, and
I'm like, oh yeah, fuck. I just I just thinking that I
and I didn't even remember telling you that I was definitely going to the early
show. I think you texted me and said are you going? And I
said yes, the early show when you I don't remember that being set.
You were trying to talk me into putting the video up. Yeah, sor
right, because then you had to put the video up and the podcast.
Sorry, So either way, I went out with some friends. Sorry,
I feel terrible because they they was sold out and you couldn't get in,
and Jamie was fantastic and you really missed out on a great show. Great
fucking so the beer was extra cold that night. Everything was perfect. It
was amazing. It was amazing. Oh when Orgy broke out in the middle
of the thing. No, I was just impressed, like the power still
of a TV draw, because there were people there that were clearly fans of
The gut Field Show and really like Jamie and he did a great set and
he's clean comic and yeah, yeah, really done a fantastic job. He
looks great. And uh, I'll be interested to see what's what's next for
this guy, because I I would think he'd be back in a year.
He was here last year at the same time. Yeah, it probably.
I don't know. Yeah, I'm not going to go again. I've already
seen it, all right, I'll keep that in mind next. I don't
know if he's anywhere close. I mean he's uh, didn't he when he
was guest speaker or a guest speaker guest colored didn't They had nine shows and
Florida all sold out. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah ten days.
Yeah, his wife flied back to a last thing. Come back if you're
your book week after week. Uh So, So the gut Felt thing is
sort of a problem for that because they tape in New York. So I
think he went in and did five days on Gutfeld and like they just put
him up and so because they really like really likes him on that show.
So I'm pretty sure that. And then he was trying to get here to
Rochester and he he had, yes, he had that really funny, funny
set about the eclipse and the whole process, and it was it was really
he could to get a plain flights now he's driving, Yes, it was
really good. He was in traffic and he ate the eclipse. Yeah,
I'm texting you. No no, no, no, somebody did text me
and I just said we're taping right now. But that was the h So
I fucked up, Doug. I did not get you a ticket. That's
all right. And so clearly I'm a better friend to Kevin Foodie than I
am. Definitely. Yeah, that's just the way it it goes. We
have some listening friends and to shout out to Joe Kinney, Kim Hollick,
of course, Kurt Day, who had his spaghetti. Oh yeah, all
right, Dan Neary, Jim Hubbard, Sherry Dope, Jay Davis, Rick
Mints, Dave Turpin, Christine Rodgers, Chris Couch, Jimmy Lynch, Joey
dancing. Oh, wonderful people, just people listening throughout the day. That's
it. That's It's awesome. Billified and and the last we have, the
last we have and the last I had of that Jamie listen show. God,

Missed him. I missed the eclipse. I mean it was cloudy Saturday,

mom was like, why do you watch murder documentaries right before you go to
sleep? And I'm like to remind myself my day could have been worse.
