Speaker 1: All right, what's up? Welcome everybody I've got with me,
Ryan Katsu Rivera. This man is a powerhouse, not just
of writing, not just of ninja skills, not just of
guardian spirit, but also impressions. We didn't know any of
this until fairly recently. When I looked up this dude's
background check with my palanteer NSA technology, I found out
everything all about him, what he's into, all of his
weird kinks, not just joking. What's up, Ryan, dude? How
you doing.
Speaker 2: I'm doing pretty good. Well. I feel a little exposed
now that my kinks are known by the US government.
Speaker 1: It's all good though. We're all Feds around here, so
we're just glowing. Guys. This man is again a treasure.
He co writes the Sam Hai Show with me, and
we've had such interesting writing sessions and conversations that I
wanted to get Ryan over here on my channel and
we're gonna have a chill chat session. We're going to
talk about influences, favorite comedy shows, favorite comedians, what inspired us,
what inspired Ryan, et cetera, his path from previous writing
gigs to where he's at now. Tell us a little
bit about you first, though, you are an interesting ninja
person of some sorts of skill sets. I'm not exactly sure.
Speaker 2: What person of some color, some color, some some.
Speaker 1: Well, we like color around here because white people are
boring and don't season things, and so you're seasoned.
Speaker 2: That's what I would just say that I'm a white
with turmeric. I suppose I also have a fake I
have a fake plant right there as well too, not
that yours is fake, but you do have matching palms.
Speaker 1: Mine is fake. I have an inward pass from two
different black people, including the Hodge Twins, So I think
I think I'm pretty good on also being honorary black dude.
But you're honorary white dude. So yeah, right, so yeah,
let's let's get into you. You were doing stuff with
Gavin prior to Gavin, What got you into that? What
was your pathway into writing funny things?
Speaker 2: And so other other teammate Pat Dixon also on the
writing team. He had a show called New York City
Crime Report on Anthony Coumie's network, And uh so, I
think the pipeline was a fan of OPI and Anthony. Actually, well, yeah,
a fan of Op and Anthony stuff. And then Anthony's
he started his own network, and then I did an
impression of Pat because he I was watching Anthony's network
before Pat joined it, and when he joined it, it was
just like who is this guy? He looks like he
was like he has the vibe of like being in
the thirties or something. He wore a suit and ass
like this like this, and so I was like, what
the hell is that? Who is that thing? They don't know?
But he was like really fascinating and he had a
really tight show. He's the one that kind of format
pilled me because the other shows are great, but they
had more of a like a pot casting nature, and
he kind of like had like a tight segment news stuff.
We get graphics being pulled up. And so I got
involved in writing my own stuff and then doing impressions,
learning new impressions like really like a really niche people
like a guy named Chris Laker. Wait, yeah, I think
that is his name, and then teleb Starks. These are
people that like they're great people, but like not a
lot of people know about them.
Speaker 1: So now this is what was great about like your
your skill set. It was like you start, you start
pulling out people that I don't expect to be impersonated
like whacking ball. Oh yeah, you leave me messages and
I'm like, wait, was that actually a message from WAC?
I don't even remember where was that Ryan doing WAC.
It's like, it's that good.
Speaker 2: I don't even know if i've I don't know if
he knows that I could do a WHAC. I don't
know if I would like that.
Speaker 1: It's good. I feel like your tempole was really good too.
I was like, damn, dude, this guy has put me
to shame.
Speaker 2: Listen, man, it's crazy. Well, well, well the Democrats are
added again. I need a beanie. Yeah we go.
Speaker 1: Now, in high school, I was the dude that was
doing impersonations of all the teachers and stuff. Were you
that guy in high school too?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's crazy? Yeah yeah, yeah absolutely, And there's
not a lot like I feel like that's not super common,
so that is fast. I didn't I didn't know that
about you. Did you get in trouble a lot in
school or were you just.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, we got in trouble a lot. In fact,
we were like pranksters, And I think that's why a
lot of like prank based comedy or trolling style stuff
has always vibed really well with me because we were
always pulling pranks on other schools and trying to get
stuff like I'd say, I shouldn't say this because it
might get me in trouble. But one of the craziest
things we did was, and we actually did this to
make a point. We got a official slow boy person
who was on the are they retarded spectrum? We got
him elected class president. Oh yeah, he actually won, and
we did it on purpose to teach the mean girls
amongst the cheerleading squad a lesson, and they taught him
a lesson. They that although they the principal sided with
the mean girls and gave it to the cheerleading chick.
We felt like the slow boy who actually won should
have gotten it. But so we're very familiar with election theft,
going all the way back to high school.
Speaker 2: Really it was unfair what they did too. Are We
call him are. His name is Todd, but we call
him are right. It's really bad what they did because
the mead girls they said we got the votes, but
we looked at the votes. We they manipulated them. They
did bad stuff, and we're going to stuff them in lockers,
give them noogies, Indian burds.
Speaker 3: Not great.
Speaker 4: What they did not great. What they did they used
to have an R next to the name.
Speaker 1: I thought it was Republican.
Speaker 5: Turns out I was retarded.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
Speaker 5: What they did probably stole it. I don't know if
you believe that they steal it, but I think they do.
They probably did.
Speaker 2: Are for retarded. D is not for democrats. It's for
dumb bitches, because that's really what we.
Speaker 1: Were up to do.
Speaker 5: That's what these cheerleaders are. You know, they're very dumb bitches.
If you look at the cheerleaders, they're probably not very smart.
Can't do arithmetic adding, none of the time stables, none
of them know their timestables.
Speaker 2: Probably a lot of cheer following. I called it cheer
following because not a lot of leaders admit when a
man like this Todd picking his nose boldly and need
to get in the middle of class, that's real leadership.
Speaker 6: Now, I want you to get out there with the
Trumps and get in their faces at the gosoline stations
and at the cafeterias and the saloons, and I want
you to make them sorry for what they've done. And
we're talking to the race of Trump rought here on
the screen.
Speaker 2: My name Max wad you know, Maccian. I didn't know
you were going to drop saloons, Okay, I was. I
was prepared to take a sip because I thought you
were going to quote your own thing verbatim, because I
remember when you said gasoline stations. I said, nobody says
that anymore, but you brought saloons.
Speaker 7: And I spin that down there with the huss Is
at the Saloons where they've got him up on the
they're on the off the top of the second floor
of the Saloons with what ladies of the evening swamps
now spagetting peed on get out there on the faces.
Speaker 1: I like how everything she said it just sounded like
just pure like dementia stuff, but it was like a
dementia patient from like eighteen ninety.
Speaker 2: Well, she's doing the thing that where she has a
microphone but she's screaming to the crowd and she doesn't
and then what we're hearing is just just yeah, that's
a wild clip and she's got the gain.
Speaker 1: The gain is cranked all the way up like a
Sam Hide video where he's screaming on his life stream
in like nineteen and like like ten years ago.
Speaker 2: It's like I believe, yeah, I believe. She did do
a selfie mirror video too, where she was tormented her mom.
Speaker 1: All right, so all right, so so how did you
get in? So it was Pat Dixon brought you on
they were doing this antet net. Did you have a
kind of an internet? Were you doing impressions before u
Cumia and Gavin Era or or did you just immediately
jump into that.
Speaker 2: Oh no, just yeah, just in like the very primitive sense,
like amongst friends and stuff. I was like a music guy,
you know, just in bands and stuff, and so that
was kind of like but I was, you know, kind
of class. I was clowney in school. So maybe not
a lot of people who were surprised when I started
doing stuff like that, but it was interesting. Like I
was working at a Japanese restaurant owned by and that's
kind of like the start of all that, Like how
I started listening to Opien Anthony too, because like my
boss's Korean was and then and my coworker was Ecuadorian
and so I just couldn't like there's just not a
high form of humor that you could do with a
language barrier like that it's all like slapstick basically, or
like making fun of Chinese people was pretty big. But
so I would just listen to Opien Anthony to sort
of like get my humor at I was like, I
was in a kitchen by myself most of the day,
so just listening to tons of Opien Anthony and what's
it called. So and then I started working at this
winery also cooking, and me and my friend would listen
to compound media, like on the way up to the
winery to Warwick. It was like a forty minute drive.
And then a couple of months later, I'm like, on,
we're listening to like stuff that I'm in on the app.
So it was very strange that it just kind of
like happened pretty quick. It started with like a tweet
do an impression of that, and then and then Anthony
Coomie like retweeted it and that's where that started.
Speaker 1: But yeah, did you are you a millennial or eugen.
Speaker 2: Z Millen's I'm thirty six.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, so yeah, you're a lot closer to
my age and I would have expected were you. Did
you grow up in that era of like late nineties
early two thousands, like Skelluing Comedy and that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, anything that was on my channels were
just yet VH one, Comedy Central and an MTV mostly
and then so yeah, a lot of jackass stuff. So
when you did pranks, is that was that what came first?
The chicken of the egg? Were your pranks there? And
then thus liked jackass stuff or I don't even know
if you do, but or was that influential what prank
stuff was going on?
Speaker 1: Well, like what we would do, so I had I
had a buddy that was my theater partner. We were
straight by the way. I don't mean that like we
did a lot of theater stuff like that was dual
improv and dual interp and back then there used to
be tournaments. So he and I were always doing like
just pranks at other schools and stuff like that. Like
nothing was on the internet. This is back in the nineties.
And then I continued going down the path of you know,
being interested in media work. He ended up doing like
literary stuff, so he became he became a lit teacher
in Italy. But we were pretty tight doing that kind
of stuff for a long time. But for me, it
was just more so like I always wanted to do
sketch related stuff or the kind of stuff that we're
doing now is kind of what I had in mind.
So I always really like stuff like you know Whyest Kids.
You know, I always thought that that was a really
good Scotch show in the two thousands. I don't know
if you ever saw like The State in the nineties.
I thought The State was pretty good.
Speaker 2: Like, oh, that sounds familiar.
Speaker 1: It was really ahead of its time for the nineties.
It was like it was like the Tim and Eric
of the nineties basically, so there was a lot of
stuff that was kind of ahead of its time that
was unknown. And then about the twenty tens you get
things like did you ever see Mister Show with Bob
and Dave? That was pretty good too.
Speaker 2: I'm familiar with it, but that boat kind of passed
me a little bit. That was on HBO, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was like ninety five to ninety eight back,
and I think they tried to bring him back, But
more so like in the Prank Vein if you remember,
Jamie Kennedy had I think was probably one of one
of the best comedy shows of all time. In fact,
I wanted to give a plug for that because like
I got him to sign all of my DVDs and
he was like, damn a DVD man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I watched I started watching your interview with your wife,
him and you, and he's just like I really liked
that guy. I mean, like after some of the Mask,
because I was such a mask fanatic, Like I think
it all started Jim. It all started with Jim Carrey,
like for real, like when I was a kid, It's
just like, that's the coolest guy ever. He's bozo nineties
everybody legend carry he was the man and so but
so after some of the Mask, I was really like
and I loved malbusmost wanted but I was like, I'm
cutting him out of my life forever. He's dead to
me for ruining the Mask. And then now I look
back at it and I'm like Jamie Kennedy kind of
kept it real, Like he had that like New Year's
Special with him and his cohorts and it was so
like off the walls, like he kind of keeps it
super real. And especially now like when he's come out,
you know, and spoken against some things that you're not
allowed to in Hollywood, Like I really respect him, and
so I was I was hoping that maybe, well the
guys were out in LA they'd be able to do
a show. But schedules did end up working out. No. Yeah,
the schedule is tight. It's hard to do anything. But
one day I think we should fly him down for
a Sam I show. I think it'd be great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it would be great. I mean I see a
lot of like maybe unknown overlap in parallel between what
Jamie was doing in the two thousands and what is
kind of in the mind of MD and world peace today,
and maybe even Sam hid show to a degree, because
I mean, what was funny was that when we went
and hung out with him and we were talking about
his show, he was.
Speaker 4: Like, did you know this is I amk Alchia before
mk Alchia.
Speaker 1: Because he's basically playing as if he's all of these
different altars, right, and so the whole show is just pranks,
by the way, which hold up really well. Not a
lot of comedy shows. Every decade that you get removed
from a comedy show, it's like even less relevant. It's
hard to even you know, like vibe with it because
you had to have been in that decade, like stuff
from the eighties just doesn't hold up that well because
just the mindset in the spirit of the times is
way different from the eighties to now nineties is a
little more accessible to us, but the further you get away.
But I think that some shows can transcend that. And
I think even though his was only three seasons, like
it just some of those skits are just phenomenal. Man,
if you've never seen any of those pranks that they did,
and again, it's like it's not like low tier pranks
like you know, because Ashton Kutcher actually created that show
that ripped off Jamie Kennedy experiment, which is it's way
lower tier stuff. But like, I think Jackass kind of
has that.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 1: I wasn't never a huge Jackass fan, always like Jamie
Kitty experience, but I mean I understand like the just
the zaniness of it, which I appreciate, but.
Speaker 2: That's really low tiers. Like Jackass is like let's step on,
my dude, gonna step on. Yeah, it's like, okay, did
you write this? Now there's a writing it's just how
much puke can we puke? But no, Jamie Kennedy, some
of those sketches have been circulating around the office, Like
Chris Lynch has been showing us the judge one, like
the court is he in blackface for that?
Speaker 1: There's a couple of those that he says like, there's
no way I could get away with that now.
Speaker 2: But there's one where he's like a plastic surgeon and
they have his the husband there and then they bring
the wife out with like it she's all boshed up
or something like that. Yeah, and he's Felix insane. He
comes up as like a freak and it was like
fun It was really funny. Yeah.
Speaker 1: One of the best ones is where they come up
with a survivor show but it's for kids, and they
bring all the parents in and Jamie Kennedy's playing like
a sleazy Hollywood producer and he's trying to sell the
parents on letting the kids come to survival Island and
they start showing videos to what they have in mind.
Like the kids are like hits, like like sever hit
each other with like spears and shit, and the parents
are horrified, but they're like actually kind of sold on it.
So it's actually pulling from Lord of the Flies, if
you've ever seen that movie. But anyway, there's a lot
of really awesome skits in Jamie Kink experience. He would
definitely be for Sam hid show, all right, this is
what happens or for uh the for PGL.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I popped out for soon It's not you so.
Speaker 1: For whatever reason, sometimes stream Labs just drops the guests
and then it's it only happens usually like maybe once
or twice the stream but anyway, you're back. I was
just saying, like, yeah, he'd be great for like PGL
or something like that.
Speaker 2: We've done two shows perfect, Yeah, totally.
Speaker 1: We've done two live shows with Jamie where we kind
of let him be the uh, you know, final act
of the night or whatever, and he kills it every time.
Like he's he knows he's excellent at like knowing the crowd,
but also really good at improv, so he can just
a lot of those characters and things he's doing are
basical good as him improv, which is I think one
of the strongest, you know, one of the strengths of
that show. But so what else.
Speaker 2: Last thing about him is like he has like a
really like oh a gift for like standing there and
looking funny like him just his like stansive like this,
like his like goofy sort of I'm standing here like
that is so rare to be like you're literally funny
being stationary, but like this whole Oh, I don't know
what's going at, Like his demeanor is is very unique,
you know. Yeah, I think he's severely underrated.
Speaker 1: The second top show that we did with him, he
came out and basically he was gonna do like his
normal routine, but then he just started like acting awkward
and just making fun of the audience for about twenty
minutes straight. Yeah, and it worked perfect. It was like
he didn't end up in like forty five minutes of
just like having everybody roll and just with making fun
of the audience on the spot. And I know, I mean,
crowd work is like its own thing. But I was
also impressed with Sam Tripley too, when I'd seen a
lot of Sam stand up, but we when we went
and hung out with him at the comedy store. He
had a gig that night, and I'd never seen him
actually do crowd work and basically when he noticed that
like his first few routine jokes weren't working for whatever
reason that night that we're at the comedy store in
la there was like thirty people from Canada. It was
like a big, weird, like business trip from a random
people from Canada and triply just went for the next
twenty minutes just busting on Canada and Canadians just on
the spot and just killed it. It was amazing. So
I was like, man, my impression of Tripoli has like
tripled with the ability to do all of that on
the spot. But you know something that was bombing right away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the spark right there if you could. It's
you know, I think millennials. I don't know if it's
exclusive to millennials, but they've had a peek behind the curtain,
and whether it's being jaded or having shows like I
Love the Nineties or commentary, whatever it is, it's like
we're having aspirations to be somebody that it's like, you know,
stuff behind the production. So it's like I'd rather watch,
Like me personally, I'd rather watch bloopers than any episode
of the Office. I've never seen one episode of the Office,
but I've seen all the bloopers because like yeah, yeah,
and curb your enthusiasm. I think I've seen two episodes
of curb and I know it's funny, but it's just
like it's one of those things like always sunny, Like
I know it's funny, but I just I don't know,
Like I'm I'd rather see stuff like or listen to
Opian Anthony because it's like a magic trick. Like their
stage work in their routine is like a magic trick.
It's like rehearsed and it's it's fortified and so not
that I feel like they're pulling a fast one on me,
but like it's it's set in stone, like that's their act,
that's their set, but it's like almost like a jam
band thing or almost like a real like magic trick
or whatever, like when you could summon funniness like immediately
at a thin air like you're working with in that
sharpness was really exhibited well on Oping Anthony because they
would get guys in there just talking about whatever, and
then it would be some of the funniest stuff like
Patresea O'Neill and Bob Kelly whatever, and they're all just
crapping on each other and it's like none of this
is rehearsed, and it's just funnier than any stand up
I've heard any of those guys do, and it's like
really super impressive, and like that's what I'm fascinated with,
Like that, like that spark of funniness like out of
thin air, like and then you'd guy, you'd get guys
like guys like Jeff Ross and Patton Oswald, guys that
were like top tier comedy guys. Even reckt your base
he was okay, like he could hang. But these guys
were literally funnier than some of the biggest comics out there.
And I respect that, like, and so the crowd work
is probably around the same parallel thing. We could just
be funny with whatever.
Speaker 1: I think you're making a key point there, which is
something that I hadn't really thought about until you were
not We had this conversation that day. You were talking about,
you know, why you don't really do stand up, you're
not really super into stand up, and I think I
was I was saying it about five hundred words more
what you were trying to say, which was that there's
something about the just being a funny person naturally that
you don't have to memorize the routine or you know,
nothing that's bad, but it's just different than if you're
the person who's got the standard wrote routine, because a
lot of stand ups have people to write for them,
so they might not even be you know, once they've
gotten to a certain stature, they might not.
Speaker 2: Even be writing their own jokes.
Speaker 1: But to be like you said, in that radio setting
where people come on and they're like the top A
list comedians, but they're not even as funny as the
dudes on the show. And I didn't even know that. Like,
I'm not I've only heard a few clips over the
years from Opian Anthony.
Speaker 2: I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not doubting you. But that's that makes my point,
which is that it's just a very different I don't
know how to describe it, but there's something very different
from the path of stand up, which is not bad.
I like a lot of stand ups, and like, for example,
you know Sam's show was really funny. I didn't. I
mean not that I thought Sam was not gonna be
a good stand up, but because even when Sam had
written out that first routine that he did, you know,
this last trip talking a lot about you know, Indians
and this kind of stuff, I was like, I mean,
it's gonna be funny, but it was actually, like I mean,
I it was as good as any like seasoned famous comics,
like full set, you know what I mean, Like it
was like it had it didn't come off as at
all like amateur or it was like a full on
professional stand up set. So I appreciated that. And I'm
not just glazing Sam to glaze Sam, I mean literally
you have I'm not a huge stand up person. Like
I like stand ups. I like hanging out with him.
I like them on podcasts. I have the most fun
with comedians. But like outside of Jamie Kennedy, Theo Vaughn,
Sam Tripoli and Leonarda whom I actually got, I got
sick at the shows that didn't actually get to watch it.
But like that's the only comedians I've seen like the
last five years as those people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like I'm totally done. The same thing with
music too. I'm just I'm like, I don't know, I
I feel like not a lot of good stuff is
coming out, but the stuff that comes out, you know,
definitely deserves credit. And I used to be like obsessed
with stand up. I would watch the same way right
like Dan when Dane Cook or Mitch Hedberg Rest in Peace.
I mean like even they just it was like nineties
music in the sense that everybody had their own world.
It was like they had their own little like Dob
david Off was not Dame Cook and that was not
like that weird got Jeremy Hotts and Mitch Hedberg, like
they all had like their own style. And it was
the same thing with like on the radio and you
would hear like the macarena lou Begas Mambo number five,
and then you'd hear like, how about the like that
song Habazar with a guy with a lisp, and then
you'd hear like.
Speaker 1: Literally everything that we were playing yesterday Fourth of July.
I was like my fourth of July.
Speaker 2: Nice all that. Yeah, dude. It's like there would be
like horn sections in the in the in songs, and
then there would be like I'm not aware of too
many things and you know what, and then I'll rip
in guitar solo with like a weird auto gate filter.
It's like, yeah, there's just they allowed so much to
exist and it didn't It wasn't confined. It was just
like just throw everything at the wall. And I same
thing with the comedians of that era. But now I've
been just like I'm allergic to watching any stand up,
even guys that like I like, you know, I'd rather
I don't know, see them like a podcast something. But
when I saw Sam show or really MD show in Hertford,
I was like blown away. I was, I was blown
away from the I mean Alex with his Alex spot
thing was it was like ridiculous, like how well that
went over? And it was a real small room and
a lot of the security guards were, uh, we're we're
brothers and then and it did not stop the content
of the of the night. And it's like I was,
I was impressed, I was laughing. I was, Yeah, it
just went between I'm impressed at this and just laughed
my ass off and Nick stand up too. It's like
he's he had like a conventionalism that wasn't like I'm
trying to be conventional. It just like he had story
based comedy. He had some like impression stuff. He had
some wacky outer space sort of stuff. Charles was definitely
out there and yeah, like Samson, it was really funny. Yeah,
and it came like you know that with those dudes,
like it's they're not trying to be conventional. But when
just them pulling a show together. It's like this stands
up like no pun intended against like conventional stuff like
this should be out there, but the fact that it's
not kind of probably makes it more special. And it's
like and you know, independent, the same way that the
the new season of Extreme pieces it makes it more
of a It's like that thing where like you love
a band and then they get famous, you like, they're
not my band anymore. So maybe it is good that
it's not. But I was I was like stunned. I
was like, this is like the best shit that's out there.
It really is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I think stand up wise, like there's very few.
And again I'm not watching a whole I am a
big Theo Bond fan that I don't you know, dislike
people just because they're they're big or whatever.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 1: We we saw the a couple of years ago in
Nashville and it was genuinely funny. Like he was doing
pretty edgy jokes you know in person that he maybe
is edging into doing them on the podcast now. But
like a lot of the stuff that people are saying
that he's based now, he was saying that stuff like
two years ago. But he was just doing it at
the live shows. But do you do you think that?
I remember Sam said something like he's never watched It's
Always Sonny or why his kids, you know, because he
doesn't want that to like get in his head because
it'll accidentally use the ideas.
Speaker 2: Or something it sounds familiar.
Speaker 1: Is that why you? Because it's to me, it's wild.
I'm not dissing you understand, Like, man, this the writing
of It's Always Sonny is so good. I mean it's
up there with like probably The Office is really well written,
but probably up there with some of the some of
the best sketch comedy like Whites Kids you know too.
But is that why you feel like it would be tainting?
It would taint you to watch them?
Speaker 2: No, I don't know, you know, I it's I think
I don't think of spoiled by But like I was
a fan of MD stuff in like I think it
was like twenty eleven, so it's pretty early, and I
don't know, and I could just like if a show
is on a network, I think at that time I
already just kind of gave it its roses because everybody
else did, and I was like, yeah, I know, that's awesome.
I'm not. I can't. I don't know if it was
when you're a certain level of busy, practicing with a band,
playing shows or something like, you have a limited amount
of time to seek stuff out, and maybe the format
kind of escape me where it's like, Okay, this season
already happened, and so I'd have to watch the first
season to catch up. Or is it like an anthology.
I don't really know, but I just knew that it's
supposed to be funny, and I'm sure I would find
it funny. But I used to make fun of it too,
like people be like always, so I'm like, oh yeah,
I always sont I got, I put the crack inside
of a rooster and then we smoked thero we ate
the ham guys, let's get drunk underneath the gutter and
there's a penguin and we killed it. It's like, okay, guys,
and we get and yet again, I'm sure it's the best,
but I just I don't know what my aversion was
to it, or even like Kirbyan THEUSAYSM because i'd watch
some of these shows and laugh and like them, you know,
but I don't know what my grudges against it it's weird.
Speaker 1: Well maybe like I'm a little bit older, so maybe
that that era. Like for example, I remember when Tim
and Eric came out. That was like two thousand and seven,
and I didn't actually like it until about two thousand
and nine, Like I had, I had a friend that
kept sending me Tim and Eiric clips and I was like,
this is just too weird. I don't get it. And
then like, oh, I see, okay, so they're they're not
They're actually trying to be you know, throwback to like
retro TV show, you know from the eighties, like SCTV
type stuff. Then it made sense. Then it clicked, and
then you know, when m D comes on the scene.
I remember I had some friends that were sending me
MD stuff too, and it was exact same thing with
Tim and Airic. When I first saw it, I was like,
I don't really get the vibe. And then it was like, oh,
now I get it. And you know, once I saw
like the officer baggot and once I saw the you know,
hitting the wall a game show like, then I started
getting it right. But it's like certain it took a
certain thing for it to click. But I want to
ask you like one thing I've noticed that it's just
totally like that there's some cut off point to where
like in the two thousands anything Tim and Eric and
then you know mde Sam Hyde like no boomers can
at all. I've never met a boomer who likes anything
Sam Hide, Tim and Air anything like that. Yeah, why
do you do you think it's just so radically like
they don't get it at all, dude, I've never met
a boomer that likes stuff. And I remember at at
the Sam, I don't think there was anybody that wasn't
like millennial.
Speaker 2: Now they were all younger than me. I felt like
old there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's like, what do you think is
the disconnect there that I've been thinking about this for years?
Speaker 2: I don't know, But you know, like every I still
think I'm in the same boat. But like when I
would watch Sam stuff back in the day, I would
always know that like like eighty percent of it went
above my head and it was like ingrained in a
world that I wasn't even kind of familiar with. I
don't know, if it's like deep Internet conspiracy stuff, there's
some like commentary on the world and it's angry and
I'm like, I'm not angry, what's going on. I'm just
eating poison, just like eating like you know, Big Max,
and I'm just like, what are you talking about? But
there was always this like element of it that was
vaguely scary and I don't know how to explain it,
but it's like some unknown stuff there. And it's the
same way like the third episode of Extreme Piece that
just came out has really like tapped into that. And
and just you know, seeing these guys working on it
and knowing stuff that I know about the behind the
scenes and how it's made and all that stuff, it's
still invokes that sort of like, man, this is like
there's stuff that you can't quite chew on. It's like
it's it's got a depth to it, you know, it's
like and so I think that might be maybe that's
why some of the like always Sonny or Tim and
Eric even where And I don't want to like disparage
that because I don't know much about it, but it
feels a little shallow. It feels like it's not taking
the sort of like aggravated commentary on the world or something.
It's kind of just like we know Crack is extreme
we know, getting drunk during the days dream We know that,
you know, like whatever, And it's just kind of a
it's a compilation of stuff that we are all we
all know is like safely we can all safely put
in the box and be like that's crazy stuff. Smoking
crack is crazy, getting drunk is crazy, eating rumham is crazy.
But when it came to MD stuff, it was like
that it wasn't in this box. It was like pulling
from areas that I was unfamiliar with and still to
this day. And yeah, it's I think that's sort of it.
Some of it. They're the fascination with Like I can't
fully comprehend this same thing with music too, Like you
ever hear a song, you love it, and then you
listen to it so much that you know every in
and out of it and you're like, I'm done with it.
You know. It's like I just could never get there.
No matter how much I liked Officer Maggot, I was like,
why is he so angry? It was like so they
let him spit in the guy's face, Like I'm just
caught up on dumb things like that.
Speaker 1: So yeah, there's something almost like dream like about the
the ethos of million dollars stream. It's like world Peace
is like it's it's it goes into a realm of
surrealism that most sketch comedy has tended to avoid. There's
only been a few ins. Like I said, The State
was kind of that way. They would do a lot
of surrealist type stuff sometimes The Ben Stiller Show back
in the nineties was kind of surrealist. Mister Show with
Bob and Dave would venture into surrealism as well. But
I think that is that and the unique aesthetic that
MD ends up having sets it apart. I think from
even earlier instantiations where like Andy Kaufman was very trully,
very you know, I mean, like Sam Hide doing the
you know, fake ted Talk is a classic sort of
Andy Kaufman style routine of where you're character leaves the
stage and enters into the real world and it becomes
a performance art where you're tricking everybody. That's peak, you know,
real world comedy. And so in a way you could
say Sam Hi is like a new Andy Kaufman. But
again to back to that Boomer point, it's like, for
some reason, I don't know why, like Boomers and gen
X could vibe with Andy Kaufman and they got it.
But when you have the same presentation. I don't mean
to say that Sam's like ripping off Andy Kaubin They're
very different, but I'm saying when you have that same
sort of fool character injected into society, that's actually trolling
the whole society, you know, at a mass scale. For
some reason, the Boomers can't jibe with that, which is.
Speaker 2: All I don't think boomers don't like being confronted and
that I don't think they like to be out of
their comfort zone. And I think my wife made a
good point the other day where it's like they'll do
anything to like not be uncomfortable, like if it means
like inviting somebody to a party that is socially like
kind of required, like hey, I'm inviting this person, Okay,
let's bring their husband or their wife or whatever. And
it's like, oh, I don't exactly like love and adore
that person, so I wouldn't want them to be just
be uncomfortable. I don't know, they're just like I think
they need the comfort so kind of the thing that
draws me too, and that dreamlike element or that surrealism
that MD provides. It's probably the exact opposite of like
they're out of control. They're like they'd have to surrender
their sort of you know, view on the world. Their
scope is a much.
Speaker 1: Shatagem for a boomer mindset which doesn't really want the
absurd right they want and everything is simple, everything's clear,
everything is black and white. Yeah, And like you're saying,
like Andy Kaufman, even though he was wacky and did
sort of trolling, there's nothing in Andy Kaufman that's a
threat to the boomer worldview. There's no social critique or
he's not disturbing right in a shake your paradigm way,
whereas the comedic style of Sam and like even Tim
and Eric is just perhaps disturbing to a boomer to
see that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like the actual foundations. It's like we're not
playing by the conventional rules. And so the whatever substrate
that you've created through this sort of like you know,
just smelling your own farts of media just years after years,
as you were like, hey, it all goes back to Phonsie,
It's like, no, it doesn't, idiot, you know, they love
like that. They're like, oh, the good old days where
Black and White was like the oldest we can possibly think.
You know, it's like the cars. I don't know, but
they they it's something to do with the fact that, yeah,
it's like I wanted to use the N word for
no reason like these but the these guys, these people,
I think they have like their own theme song in
their head kind of thing, and like it's their movie.
You know, boomers have like they're living in the movie.
And if you show them something that's like radical and
like confronting them and confronting the world that they which
is basically just the set for their movie, that I'm sure, yeah,
they wouldn't like that at all.
Speaker 1: And it's funny too, how different, Like what's edgy comedy
now is basically stuff that is, you know, the type
of stuff that you would make fun of in the nineties,
right Like if you go back and watch nineties comedies,
like they're making retard jokes, they're making, you know, jokes
about race. It's it was very commonplace. It was standard comedy.
And now that's the edgy comedy that you know isn't
on Comedy Central or Netflix shows or whatever. And that's
I think, I think obviously the woke shit, you know,
killed comedy quite a bit. But any group that didn't
conform totally to the woke stuff, which clearly you know,
World Peace MD is not that. So it stands out
basically as kind of like the last like and I
honestly I don't I don't keep up with like comedy
anymore because most of it shit. But like, it's just
weird that even in the two thousands, right, there was
quite a few popular sketch comedy shows like they were
going pretty strong. You had Whites Kids, you know, you
had Flight of the Concorde, had Arrest of Development, you
had Jamie Kennedy had even in the UK, you had
things like Mighty Boosh. I don't know if you've ever
watched that, but it's it's a pretty pretty wacky, creative
British sketch comedy show. You had Key and Peel, you
had you know, even mainline shows that were pretty pretty funny.
I think Park Parson Wright was pretty well written too.
He'll be right back. He like Marty McFly, ceased to
exist for a moment, but we will get him back,
I assure you. Or maybe he just left. Maybe he
was like, I'll screw this shit. I don't like the
shows that Jay listed. They're all pure trash and garbage.
Speaker 2: And I'm out of here.
Speaker 1: Yes, he's saying, should he refresh? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Come back?
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, come back, dude, there we go. Hey, what's up?
Sorry about that? It wasn't me, but like I said,
sometimes streamline just drops people. But anyway, what I was
making was that, you know, in the two thousands, you
had like this probably the peak of popular sketch shows
or you know, written shows, even like standard sort of
sitcom style shows, that there was like next level beyond
what was in the nineties. And then you the more
that woke stiff started creeping in, the more sketch comedy
died to where now there's literally like it's always sunny
still exists, and there's now you know, million dollar extreme
world peace too. I mean, is that is that I
don't even know if there's anything like sketch comedy has died.
It's really weird to think about this.
Speaker 2: No, maybe it is really that. Like I mean, when
when you limit a form so much where it's essentially
you placed a minefield I do an open canvas, It's like,
you know, is it worth the risk to even do that?
And it's like it's so hard to it would have
to be so spun out, like I think you should leave.
I think works pretty good because it doesn't even bother
like commenting on the wokeness or whatever that Becau's just
it's like so infested and it's like you'd either have
to honor one side of the next or at least
comment on the fact that this is happening because it's
so blatant and like heavy handed that it like deserves
a sort of like disclaimer before moving forward into something entertaining.
But I don't know, but it feels pretty doomed. And
then also it's probably the corporatization of stuff and women
being involved, and you know, like what's safe, what will work?
I don't want to take chances, what if they say
something whatever. You know, it's like there's fear, there's there's
not like courage. I mean, that's that's just like a
bad it's a bad time for anything except like a
fully independent funded thing that refuses to die like extreme peace. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, even like Chappelle's show, you know in the
two thousands, which was only like two seasons, you know.
Speaker 2: Was it really I think so?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Wow, nobody calls that like one, you know, one
of the greatest ever. And I mean it was. It
was good, it was funny. It's kind of hard to rank,
you know, like the greatest ever. But did you ever
watch Flight of the Concords.
Speaker 2: Yeah? I did like Flight of the Concords, Yeah, because
you know what the like, the sort of wackiness of
that was like, oh, that's just I wrote it off
as that's just New Zealand stuff. So like anything that
like I didn't quite relate to. It's like, that's fine,
I can't relate to New Zealand anyway, so it's probably why.
And I just liked the guitar element. I liked Tenacious
d a lot, you know, like I was really impressed
by the fleagy goo goos and all that. Dude. Again
to Rack and Roll, I don't know why he was
trump handing. Frankly, folks, the Rack and Roll has gotten
it's trump jack Black got to work on that.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: I mean I could tell that was actually a Jackie.
I could tell what it.
Speaker 2: Was chicken Jackie. But yeah, I liked anything Good like
Steven remember Stephen Lynch is Comedy Central. Yeah, I had
the album What you.
Speaker 1: Said you were in a band, like what kind of
music did you did you do.
Speaker 2: For it was like there was a grunge band. There
was like a kind of three door three doors down
down syndrome band.
Speaker 1: So you were an Asian Scott stat.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I was going. No, I was doing all that.
I had my hand out like this, and it would
move with me wherever I went, it went, and I
would sometimes they would rest things there without my permission,
but I'd have to sing, so they would put an item.
Sometimes it would be heavy, a tungsten rod. My left
arm is bralic, my right one looks atrified, atrophied. No.
But and then also like a hip hop rock band,
which I like to test rap currently but and I
had to test the rap vocals in my old band too.
But it was it was, It was a blast, and honestly,
it really helped the fact that we weren't just a
regular singer, regular band because we would do these contests
like the break contest in Poughkeepsie at the Chances Theater
we did three years, and we stood out because we
had like a rap vocal guy. And so although I
was like, I really want some melodic singing, I'd always
wanted to be in a band. Like I never really
listened to gym class heroes or anything like that. So
I was like, I liked the Biscuit and Lincoln Park
and but the thing about them is they had singing
parts and we like didn't. And so I was, you know,
it's weird because I didn't. I would fall in love
with our music, like after playing it so many times,
but like the rap vocalist thing was always a little
bit like damn, like I wish we had a singer guy.
But I look back at all this stuff we did
and I love it and it's great. But yeah, anyway,
so this contests the third one. We wound up actually
getting third place, but that was enough to get us
to the break. I mean to play Bamboozled, which is
like a huge festival. The lineup, If I tell you
the lineup, it's gonna it's insane, like Lollapalooza, but now
it was at Asbury Price like Lollapalooza, but like at
the beach. So it was like Asbury Park, New Jersey,
like right on the boardwalk we played. We got to
play there, so we played inside this huge like stadium
type thing. But the main event was outside on the beach,
the Beach Stage. It was Mac Miller, Periphery, Incubis Scrillick's,
The Foo Fighters, Mike Chemical Romance, Jimmy Eat, World Bond, Jovie.
I think I might have said that already. It was
it was crazy, it was nuts. And then the second
day we realized that we could we had VIP passes,
so we're like in the VIP all American rejects walks
by and they all have like tiny dogs. I was like,
is that just like a bit for this show or
did they all walk around all the time with little
tiny dogs?
Speaker 1: You mean like Paris Hilton it girl dogs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, except like on a leash, because that's the masculine
thing to do when you have a four centimeter hound.
It was crazy and Mac Miller I saw him getting
interviewed in the corner before I really knew who that was.
I was like, that looks like that guy, And sure
enough was Mike Posner, Scrillis and Ellie Goulding like went
by us like on a little go kart thing, and
he was like, that's what he looked like, like little Corey
Felderman with a wig.
Speaker 1: So in a minute, so, what how come did you
not pursue the band route, Like were you guys? So
you guys were at what like the level of like, oh,
we're about to get signed and all this kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we just didn't have our stuff together. Like winning
that contest was like, in a way, kind of like
a nail in the coffin, or at least started the
process and being like, well, that's because we're getting older.
We all had to have jobs. And then I think
two years after that or so, like we're all just
working jobs and we're tired of like hauling gear to places.
Maybe that's what it was. We felt like we kind
of were on the brink of making it, and then
knowing the rat race was to continue was pretty like discouraging.
Knowing that we go back to bars for two hundred
dollars shows or whatever. It's like, I don't know, we
could just call it. We can call it, you know.
But we had two really some of the best songs
instrumentally we ever came up with. Was like right before
we like pretty much fizzled out. I started going down
to the city to do compound media stuff. My drummer
and best friend at the time he was getting serious
with his painting job. You know, Basis was working a job.
The lead singer guy, the rapper guy. He's hilariou is.
He's still doing he's still living like we were in
a band, and he lives in the college town.
Speaker 1: He's the local cover band for.
Speaker 2: You probably I love you, Nate. If you ever see this,
I doubt you will. But it's such a pitiful like
thing he's chasing like I was in a band. He's
so funny, Like he's a really funny human right now.
He's into owning a jeep and he's in a jeep
community and I saw a video of him recently where
he pulls up to other jeeps. He's like, what's your
rig's name? He's asking them what they named their jeep
and he's like, do the thing, and then the other
jeep rolls up on his wheel and it's like this
and that's that's just what he's doing. He's probably doing Molly.
He's probably creeping on college girls. You know, I'd like
to say, hey, you know, we got to talk about
how much Jesus loves you, because right now you are
pursuing some really.
Speaker 1: Like it's weird to see those communities around cars like
I forget which kind of card is it? Jeeps where
they put the little duck in the on the yep
okay that yeah's and everybody's gonna I'm like, is this
some sort of like cult, like a Jeep colt? And
I don't know what this means, but okay, so let
me ask you about one thing that's even worse than
the realm of like stand up and sketch comedy is
comedy films. Those have been probably the worst hit. I
don't think there's only anything that's funny anymore, A little
bit that comes out here and now here, here and there,
this kind of wacky. This might be cliche, I don't know,
but I find that really the only films that I
think are funny anymore, or like when I go back
and watch like Jared Hess films, to me, they're still funny.
I've liked all of his for the most part. Plnecraft film,
which I didn't even realize was Jared has film until
like halfway watching it, when I was, you know, doing
the analysis for Sam Hide Show for you guys, I
was like, oh, wait, this is a Jared Hess film.
So it was the first half and then it kind
of like got a little worse and worse.
Speaker 2: But who's Jared hess I So like.
Speaker 1: If you remember he's Napoleon Dynamite, this is kind of
breakout film. But then every film he's done, I thought,
for the most part, was really funny, Like Masterminds with
Zach Golf and Akus was really funny. Gentlemen Broncos was
really funny. I think he had a role in Sasquatch Gang,
which is pretty funny. Yeah, and then then he did, uh.
Speaker 2: The mat Show.
Speaker 1: I didn't know he did.
Speaker 2: He did not show le Bra he.
Speaker 1: Did, That's right, I forgot about. That's the one that
was after Napoleon Dynamite. For I've always liked that one too, But.
Speaker 2: The artsy it's like kind of artsy like Napoleon Dynamite
for sure is artsy like. And when that came out,
it really was like, you know, like the vote for
Pedro shirts, like it was so such a like cultural
like side step that I think a lot of people
gravitate on because something new and fresh and actually like
true to itself. That was a huge thing. I had
to be careful not to be one of those guys
because I saw lots of Napoleon dynamite guys, chapsticks started
popping up people drinking gatorade differently. I was like, I
gotta be careful, but yeah, I mean, and then also
the fake commercial, the karate thing like that in its
own it's just yeah, I loved it.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and speaking of foot fist way, Danny McBride's
stuff is always really funny. He's founding down is great.
What did you watch Rightsones was awesome.
Speaker 2: I was just about to ask you about that because
it's tough for me because like me and my wife
will watch it and we've you know, just finished the
latest season, but it just gets so much like more
degenerate as it goes on.
Speaker 1: The fourth season was so kind of gross, and it
didn't need that. It was already really funny without getting,
like you said, more and more. Season four was really gross,
but I still watched it. I felt like it was
actually the least funny of the seasons. One, two, and
three were pretty good. One and two are probably the funniest,
but uh yeah, I think like he's always gonna be
kind of the you know, same old douchebag that he's
always but it's always funny.
Speaker 2: For some reason.
Speaker 1: I don't know how he like he maintains for twenty
plus years the same sort of douchebag character. That's still funny.
But yeah, I mean outside of Danny McBride or a
Jared Hess movie, like I just very few films or
that funny. I don't know if you've seen what's that
guy's name, Taika Watiki?
Speaker 2: Have you seen any of his films? But he did
a Thor movie.
Speaker 1: Uh he wrote that, but that which is weird because yeah,
you're right, but because all of his other stuff is
like wacky Jared Hess style comedy. So he did the
Ballot of Beverly Lefflin. I thought that was really funny.
He did also a couple other kind of weird, quirky
Napoleon Donamal Dynamite style comedies. But I don't even watch
that Thor movie, so I have no idea what happens
in that. But yeah, it's weird because he went from
these weird, quirky comedies to writing doing this big Marvel movie.
But yeah, hissed off, I think can be pretty funny. Otherwise,
like comedy movies are just trash.
Speaker 2: I know, and I would get my hopes up too.
There was in like the late two thousands. It was
sort of my disenfranchisement with like Will Ferrell and Jack
Black has been a recent Yeah, it's just like the
guys that you see the face, you know that that
guy is going to deliver and that it just doesn't
and one of them looking back is actually really good.
But Jack Black movie, it was Envy. You ever see
the movie Envy? I am.
Speaker 1: I've always been a defender of Envy. Like a lot
of people hated it, I've always thought it was pretty.
Speaker 2: Funny Vy, like the song like it's it's a wet
I love it, like I written. Then there's a line
from Christopher Walk and we always used to like say
from that probably went something like that.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: But you know, it's just sad because like Will Ferrell,
like that was you know when we were like little
normies just at high school. It was like, you know,
it's like the human towards Bank. That's another guy who
did like a twenty year run of the same guy. Yeah,
just like a pompous oaf but it worked. But yeah,
it worked, and.
Speaker 1: Then they become like these totally you know, system controlled
kind of establishment creeps, which is the worst part of it.
But I think yeah, s O Live was great in
the nineties, just for nineties comedy that doesn't really hold
up now, but like David Spade was great, Dana Carvey
at one time was really funny on there, and then
I liked Sorry Live all the way up until like
the Will Forte, Bill Hayter, Kristin wieg Era that was
still pretty funny. Yeah, every now and then there's some
gyms that come through nowadays, like cal Mooney stuff is
always funny. Colin Beck have been you know, mainstays. I
guess it's all right live, but the rest of it
is kind of you know.
Speaker 2: There was one that was like one of the funniest
sketches I've I've seen from SNL like and I was
impressed because it's like you throw so many darts at
the board, something's going to hit a bullseye. And it
was Neate Bargatzi when he's just as George Washington.
Speaker 1: Yeah he's out of Nashville. So yeah, it's funny because
I remember back like in the day, I tried to
do a little bit of stand up back in the
in the mid two thousands, and that was back when
he was like starting to do stand up in Nashville,
So it's weird to see him, like he's you know,
super stand up now. But he is a funny guy.
He can be really funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's like my my wife's side of the family's
like favorite comedian. It's just like, I don't even know
if he's clean. I'm not sure. I've never seen his.
Speaker 1: Act Wives and moms love his money for whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then like edgey or chicks go for the
theovon and like, you know, it's like, but if you're
like kind of a normy and you're maybe forty to fifty,
it's Nate Bargatzi all day. You know what's funny though,
the guy who gets a lot of flak, you know,
because he just takes his shirt off in his drunk
all the time. Burt Kreischer. And I'm no Burt Kreischer
fan in particular at all, but I for whatever reason,
watched the movie The Bear. I think it's called The Bear,
and I think it was for the Movies podcast with
my buddy Jay low Res And you know that podcast.
Speaker 1: I don't, but it sounds up my alan.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they dissect movies and stuff. They do a really
good job. Lo Res and it Hans. Yeah, and so
it was my duty to watch this movie, and I
was prepared fully to just crap on it. But it
had some of the sort of like you know, like
vehicle comedies where it's like, we got a guy just
write a thing and then before you could tell yeah,
like Andrew dice Clay had one. It's like this guy's
hot right in a movie. I don't care what it is.
Speaker 1: I remember watching that. It was Ford fair Lane.
Speaker 2: Right, yep, yeah. For hey, we just made up a
bit me and Schultz today at the office, and it
was a fuzzy dice Clay. Hey, I'm hanging on your mirror.
Oh oh yeah, oh but dish, I don't want you
to sway when I take a left turn, shut up
on me.
Speaker 1: Or uh you could play on that being like so
because Andrew dice Clay was like so just notoriously filthy.
Like even in the nineties when a lot of stand
ups were just disgusting, blue nasty comedians, what if Andrew
dice Clay was just totally clean and all the jokes
are just dad jokes and they're not good, but they're
totally clean.
Speaker 2: Andrew nice Clay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, right, slow boy white horses for two dollars.
Somebody tried to super chat four times. That's weird. I
don't know what's going on.
Speaker 2: Uhlay doing Mitch Hedburg jokes, that'd be weird.
Speaker 1: All of these like abstract, you know, pot headstoner jokes
turn into into disgusting coitas jokes. No one became a
member a brewing gong became a member, Mickey became a member.
Mickey bought ten members ships. What's up, dude? Thank you
so much, Dan Vicious two dollars. By the way, if
you got a super Chat, I will split them with Ryan,
so you're also playing paying for Ryan's remenodles.
Speaker 2: Tonight, give me the money, give me the money. Hey,
I don't I don't eat about just making that.
Speaker 1: At all. Is Vietnamese foes. Not even remenodles doesn't even
affect his lineage. It's not him, so it's not really
it's pronounced fu. I don't even know. I just call
it like I always think how the actual people of
that group tell me that it's supposed to be pronounce
that it was cool. It's still faux.
Speaker 2: So I hate it when people are like, you know,
we went down there, TONI it's like just say Nicaga,
you eve.
Speaker 1: It's like nobody says Kiev, dude, what do.
Speaker 2: You mean my daughter? Today? I was I was just
putting it to bed before this, and uh, we usually
tell her stories before bed, but like, we stayed up
late and we went to this carnival, so I was
like just giving her. I was like, remember we did this,
and then just giving her rundown of the carnival day
and then we got this and then we went on
this ride. And then there's this Mexican girl that came
up to her trying to She's like, Como sayama, and
she doesn't understand what that means. And I was like, yeah,
and you almost made a friend today, but you guys
didn't speak a different language. You guys spoke different languages,
and like Dora the Explorer, she spoke Spanish and she's
like yeah. She's like yeah, but I don't know. I
just know English. And then she goes like and she
shrugs and does She's like, I could say a patron
noster for you, and I'm like, and then my other
kid is like sleeping in the room, so I'm like
I'm trying not to die laughing. It was, but the
way she shrugged and said it links dead. See, I
can say a pattern noster for you.
Speaker 1: Hey, ten no staff do me no CLV school. Yeah.
By the way, uh, somebody sent a superchest, so we
make sure that the superchats aren't broken, because this does
seem a little odd that there aren't any superchats except
for so some of y'all cheap oh's out there tonight.
All y'all pay piggies that ain't living up to what year?
There you go, the Lord Voldemort. Alex Jones appearance was fire?
J Are you talking about Alex Jones appearing that it
was fire or my appearance on Alex Jones. I don't
know what that comment means, but thank you top jack
O Mateck Sunday two thousand and five. We're gonna be
the next five hours Ryan Katsu Riverah, unbelievable.
Speaker 2: That's see. That's the sort of like little nuances that.
Speaker 1: I like a nuance that a lot of people haven't
noticed that I was actually laughing at today. Is Alex's
preference for doing the Emperor Palpatine part? Have you noticed
he does that? It's Alex doing the Palpatine and.
Speaker 4: He'll go and we have figured out a few things.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Alex will do Alex Palpatine, which is a nuance
that I noticed.
Speaker 2: It's one of his sub characters. So when you do
an impression, you'd have to do the impressions that they
do and the way they.
Speaker 1: Do meta impressions. Here come the super chats. Thank you
guys for being gracious and as I said, we will
share these super chats with Ryan tonight, so you can
also help pay his AOL Internet built Mickey five dollars,
says Test Yes, thank you, Mickey or Max nine dollars.
Who has the better Jordan Peterson impression? You were right?
I have to say Ryan's is probably better. Jordan, for
whatever reason, is not my best. I do think Jimbob
is the best at Jordan.
Speaker 3: Uh well, you know it's like it's like, you know,
when you start talking about Jordan and you get the
little upset, you know, and then you say you're fucking
know and your breath, your mayor your your voice preaching all.
Speaker 1: We were talking about this the other day. Ryan and
I were talking about how when Jordan gets upset and
he he's edgy, so he says the F word and
it breaks he's he's not used to that muscle for
the F word being like working in his throat. So
when he's man, it's fuck you know.
Speaker 2: Also, yeah, he wields it like yeah, like your friend's
little brother who just learned how to curt cutting. I
don't know how to do like a heavy sword that
he can't, you know.
Speaker 8: It's like it's like what's in a word? It's like, well,
what isn't in the word. It's like, well, bloody, who cares.
It's like what I do. It's like, well, no you don't.
It's like, well why not.
Speaker 3: It's just it's like, well why not you?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think Ryan's is better. With Ryan's normal mode, Jordan
Peterson is perfect. It sounds just like and when when
Jordan's just talking, but then like when he starts getting
upset is my favorite Jordan. It's like when he you know.
Speaker 2: Fuck you know, uh, like, yeah, that is tough. I
don't think I have that when when.
Speaker 1: It cracks when he says it's the best Pablo Winsker
are four dollars, here are some shekels? Jay, get them
off my back? Oh now, get off my back. You
got it? Buddy, A Pooh sends two dollars.
Speaker 3: Thank you'll come again, Thank yours, bro. We will put
the seats in search of you.
Speaker 1: You know you know who Show is? No, you don't
know Show oh Man the cult leader. You don't know
the cult letter.
Speaker 2: Oh Show, he's like the one of the best dude,
is he the one that sits Indian style?
Speaker 9: He talks about the papers being retorted and put his
siege in shide of you.
Speaker 1: He has a booger whistle, which Yogi's, you know, Hindu
Yogi's have boogerstle.
Speaker 2: It makes it more mystical, right, because it's like it's
an untouched nose exactly so as the factory warranty and
that sucker.
Speaker 1: Well, the booger hits a certain frequency that calls It's
like an intoonation that calls down the deities. I don't
know if you know how Hinduism works, but seph for
five dollars. What do you guys think of Matan? Even
it seems like the energy of you with George Santos
was a work of art. That kid might have a future.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: I've watched a couple episodes. I'm still not sure I
get it yet. Maybe it's just because like when I
first saw Tim and Eric or Sam Sam Hyde, I
was like, I'm not sure what's happening yet. I gotta
process it, but I'm not sure what to think. What
do you think?
Speaker 2: I think he's a funny dude, and I that's one
of the guys that I've yeah, I've just seen like
a you know, not a ton from him. But it's
like it's one of the guys that I rest my mind,
because at first I was like, is that a bit?
Is that actually him? And then I just like rest
and I'm just like, you know what, I don't need
to know it's like Copper cab or Raresoft Fatty or something.
It's just is you know what? Because the funny thing
is is like I won't say who, but there's this
guy who has a character and we I met him,
I was able to spend time with him behind the scenes,
and it occurred to me that it's both it's like, yes,
he's playing a character, but also like only in so
far as he could, because it's kind of like, you know,
it's it's like a half step removed from who he is,
you know what I mean. It's like it's not quite
a heightened version for like a show. It's like he's
trying to be a character. But when he's not that,
it's like, oh, the structure that you're building that on
is like pretty much that, you know, it's not doesn't
that the same output? But it's like, so you might
be one of those guys I'm thinking now, I'm thinking
about it again.
Speaker 1: Fair reading Ace Brosey five dollars. I need more, Oh Show, Jeet.
Speaker 9: Whistle resh because you have requested your answer.
Speaker 1: But Oshow is always talking about that he wants to
put his seat inside of you two, which I don't
know if you know this, but gurus like to touch butts.
So oh, I've laughed about that quite a bit. Over here,
Maximus Pike sends two pounds and seventy nine cents of
gay Canadian dollars and he says, is there any truth
to Ryan being quote better than Hendricks? I don't know
what this refers.
Speaker 2: To match it. Thank you for bringing that up. Yet
that is true? You know. It's a great you know,
and boomers will get curious, they'll want to kill you
for this, but it's a great conversation starter where you're like, yeah,
I play guitar and like how you know how good
are or whatever, where you could just bring this up
whole cloth and be like, well, I'm better than Hendrix's
a guitar and they're like, no, you have to be
there to cheese burgers.
Speaker 1: It's actually really funny to like bait a boomer.
Speaker 2: That's awesome, it's perfect. They'll melt down, they'll get they'll like,
they'll probably fight you. And the thing is is like
Jimmy Page garbage at improvis improvisational guitars. Sorry, you suck.
Kurt Hammett. I know a lot of people love Metallica
and they're good, they're making songs, but that guy can't
even solo on the record in key And it's just
like all I'm saying is I'm not as iconic, I'm
not legendary, I'm not as great of a songwriter, not
a great performer. I wasn't there at the time. I'm
not saying that, just saying on a skill level, I
know more skills of guitar and execute them cleaner. And
there's nothing wacky crazy. Put acid on my head, play
the guitar upside down backwards with my teeth and make
it explode. Whatever about it. It's just on a skill level.
I'm better than Hendrick's, that's all.
Speaker 1: Or the next time they'd be like you weren't there,
just be like no, I was there, Like no, it
was dude, I'm a lot younger.
Speaker 2: Than I'm eighty.
Speaker 1: I'm older than a Look, all my team says, the
left hand path is just touching butts, and then you
misunderstood when they talk about the left hand path, it's
the left hand ass the left hand of the guru
grabs the butts. That's what left hand path means. Uh.
Mickey says, for five dollars, all hail our cult leader
Jay Dyer. Okay, okay, I like where this is going.
It's your rhythm. Ten dollars, Ryan, thank you for the
years on GML. You did so much for that show
and you added most of the laughs for me. I've
watched the last five years now. Congratulations on being at
the sam Hi show.
Speaker 2: Thank you. Yeah, oh yeah. I mean that is such
a fun show. And like people would even ask you like,
isn't it It's like, don't you want to punch Gavin?
He's mean to you, and I'm like, dude, I was like, no,
I don't. First of all, he's my boss. Can talk
to me however he wants. I can take it. I
have lots of Japanese patients, and even though most of
the time I was right, okay, but I took the
higher ground. Now I'm just kidding, but not like that.
Speaker 1: That that's that Japanese patients ride that kamakazi thing.
Speaker 2: Yes, the patients to uh self emilate or explode myself
for a cause whatever it might be, just for nothing. Really,
I work too much. Okay, let you jump off. Okay.
I don't know why why the self destruct button is
so like sensitive for Japanese people. God bless them. I mean, yeah,
they have it rough. But no, Latina too right, Latino.
But yes, I wasn't.
Speaker 1: Actually meaning to I justly, I promise. I accidentally just
said Latina. Which is, by the way, that that that's
one of the one of the things I like about
It's always funny. By the way, is the fact that
they've had like five episodes be banned. And I didn't
realize this until my wife and I just went through
watching all the all the episodes, right, so we did
all the all the seasons and I noticed it. Wait
a minute, there's like five that are banned. Off of
Amazon them, so I'm like, why are they banned? And
then it turns out it's because in at least three
of them, Caitlin Olsen is doing this character called Martina
Martinez where she where she dresses up in Latina brown
face and she's really it's funny because her character thinks
that she's a good improv character creator, but she's garbage.
But it's rare. It's funny because it's racial in its garbage. Anyway. Uh,
that that's why I'm thinking of Latina. And I apologize
because I know that you're a fully one percent of man.
I can confirm he's not fair.
Speaker 2: That is fair, but yes, half Latino. But I didn't
finish the gavint.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Gavina.
Speaker 2: Sorry, it's fine. The Japanese patience is, uh, just like
I must, I must fly a plane into your podcast.
Speaker 1: Share let me is that that's how y'all?
Speaker 2: That okay? I think that was an appropriate I think
that was an appropriate amount. The angle is perfect. To
be honest, this would be like too much. I'd be
like no, no, no, don't please that that little pulse the
pulse was good, but yeah, no, thank you for thanking
me and I'm glad you had a lot of laughs there.
I did. I want to put together all the times
that I did impressions on that show and because there
was I did a Dave Ramsey that and I did
a a Brendan Fraser that is like I nailed Like,
I nailed it, and I'm okay with seeing it because
I literally studied all day for just like getting interviews
from the Whale specifically like the awe shucks Brendan Fraser,
the New Whale one like though here you goes you
know that and so and I had like a face
swap thing, so you know that helped. And I put
like I fatted myself up with a fat suit, so
like really like esoteric is that a good word for it? Yeah,
like little impressions, we do esoteric Hollywood impressions. Oh, speaking
of the book.
Speaker 1: Hey, that's a great point. Like the the niche impressions
are the things that people overlook like to be able
to do these like random ass like pulling out a
brandan phrase too, who does a impression? That's awesome?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I looked it up and it was like nobody
and then jd Vance when at the time that I
dropped my jd Vance impression. Listen, President Donald Trump and me,
we just want to thank the American people. And first
of all, you know, Mark, I really appreciate that you
said that about me. That's very kind. And it's just
like I think I did it probably better with the
face thing I was on the spot.
Speaker 1: I've also been working in a Mark Zuckerberg impression.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you've ever heard of this, but
jd Vance is great because he's going to be in
a koom pod that I've designed specifically for him in
the future.
Speaker 2: Well bravo, dude, that's music koon Pod. You didn't even
have to drop that, but you just nailed it.
Speaker 1: Well, I've done the market so a lot of times
when we do our live shows, I play this game
where the audience has to guess the impression. So I've
done this Mark Zuckerberg impression like fifty times. But yeah,
I mean I love those niche impressions that people pull out,
like you don't expect, like Mark Zuckerberg, Brendan Fraser to
show up and like, have you ever heard the Phil
Have you ever heard Phillip Seymour Hoffman when he was
in Mission Impossible three?
Speaker 2: No? Man, obscure.
Speaker 1: That's an obscure one. But like people, if you if
you've watched Mission Impossible, and if you're a Phillips Seymour Hoffin, man,
bring me the rabbits foot.
Speaker 2: I want the rabbit's foot.
Speaker 1: Where's your girl. I'm gonna find her. I'm gonna hurt her.
Give me the rabbits foot. That's a brief one. But
if you watch Mission Impossible three, Philip super Hoffin has
like three lines in the whole movie, and it's basically
him just asking for the rabbit's foot. But anyway, people
in the audience nick cageon, No, we don't want a
Nick Cage, give me somebody else, give me a can
we do a I'm gonna give you money. So you're
getting paid for this. This is not working for free throw.
Throw me a obscure and then we'll see if we
can get it. Remember, you are getting paid for this.
Speaker 2: Let me see. Okay, this is very obscure to leave
starks of. And he was the one that I was
telling me about with the he did black He covered
black crime. He's a black guy that covered black crime
on compound media. Okay, pet, So today we're going to
be checking out crime and PD. What do you got
to say about that? And if you were to watch
that and see that man talk, you would say that
sounds like it so obscure that nobody would get like,
nobody watching this would understand this.
Speaker 1: You actually people are talking about your show and that
show and the previous n NFL stuff, which is funny
because I thought I had a good idea for sam
Hide show, and then I let Ryan hear it and
he's like, oh, yeah, we already did that with in NFL.
Speaker 2: I was, but it's different enough.
Speaker 1: I'll have to change it up a little bit make
it work.
Speaker 2: But like, and I think you could even uh bring
it in. I don't know, maybe even he can, Like
if it's a serial thing, you could bring him in
as a guest for one of them. But yet again,
what he didn't do was cover all races.
Speaker 1: He just did the we add in all of the
races and make it properly diversified, then everything will work. Well,
you know, Yeah, so we got there. Throw some Woody
Allen's up in there. I could do a really good
Woody Allen backseat Sauceman and five dollars says it's always funny.
Had naked Danny DeVito crawling out of a leather couch
in that one episode. I want an apology from them
and I want to thank you at the same time.
H a I, he says, and he bows to you. Ryan.
Speaker 2: It's a quick one, like this one little lake hurt
your spine. Okay, here's one, Timily Jones. This is one
of my good bad impressions. Like I think it's funnier
to do a bad Christopher walking than a good one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's tough, he's actually come tough.
Speaker 2: He's kind of tough. But also the like a lot
of so many people have gotten already that it becomes
like hacktors.
Speaker 1: To do it in a shitty way when everyone else
is doing it.
Speaker 2: I even thought the same thing of Trump too, like
doing a what I call like a hire him for
forty dollars for a wedding entertainer Trump, which's like, guys, wow,
congratulations to the beautiful bride.
Speaker 1: Like this is the impression of the average comedian doing
ad impression.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and like and just like kill down your
It works for guitar too, like simplifying and like playing
artistically shittier than you can for some Yeah, it's it
gives him more of like a like an honest genuineness,
if you like, kind of don't make it so flowery
and and what is a good word for it, flourish,
A lot of flourishes. So with that, here's my Tommy
Lee Jones. Let me see, kids are sleeping. But I
think I slick. You've now entered the men in Black.
I can do a little more of lately, slick. You
have now entered the Men in Black, and there is
an active volcano.
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. I like that. I like that. I'm
gonna throw you one. Now, you gotta this. If you
can guess this, I'm gonna pull out one of the
classics if you can get it.
Speaker 4: If we understand the purpose of the magic mushroom, it's
to initiate us into the next aon where we will
no longer have fallocentric presidents ruling us with their iron
thumbs and iron dicks.
Speaker 2: Okay it's not mister Rogers.
Speaker 1: No, that was Terrence McKenna. You're not familiar with Terrence McKenna.
Speaker 2: No, I haven't heard him talk. I've heard Joe Rogan
talk about him. But mushrooms should have mushrooms.
Speaker 1: There you go, well, now you've heard I do a
pretty good Terrence McKenna, so.
Speaker 2: I can do a decent mister Rogers.
Speaker 1: Throw throw me, mister Rogers.
Speaker 2: So with your mind and your spirit and the way
that you are, you are unique and you are special.
I wish I had a shoe to change and throw
in the other hand, but I don't. Neighbor not bad,
thank you?
Speaker 1: All right, I'll throw you one. Let's see if you
can get this. This is I'm a very obscure one.
You may not know this.
Speaker 4: The problem COPI production throwingingjung your people.
Speaker 5: The people are turning to Jordan Peterson.
Speaker 4: The problem COPI means a production.
Speaker 1: You know that.
Speaker 2: Can I give you a tip on that one? You
gotta do this.
Speaker 1: He the cocaine is the cocaine is still there. Yeah,
that was my good job, you get.
Speaker 2: Why is he so? Why is he so disgusting?
Speaker 1: Why is he like every sentence? Man, it's like, chill out, dude.
Speaker 2: You can't have a job to write books. Dude, Why
are you talking? Like?
Speaker 1: Why are you talking at all?
Speaker 2: It's literally like act gross. Okay, it's him.
Speaker 1: I think that that's like the vibe of communis right,
Like communism is just like just accept the gross. You
know what I mean. It's like part it's like a performance.
Art of being a communist is being gross.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Devin used to say that two about like the
way that they dress like just frump, just earth Earth, Yeah, soggy.
Speaker 1: Okay, I gotta I gotta obscure one for you. Tell
me if you can figure this one out? Ready, yes?
Speaker 10: So the the the the chaos math. There's a is
a way to actually get laid if you if you
speak and spit game at Laura Dern, you could probably
probably get laid with some chaos math.
Speaker 2: Jeff Goblum.
Speaker 1: Yes, nice, Jeff gobl I know it's not terrible if
you got it.
Speaker 2: No, that's good. The only thing I could do with
Jeff Goblum is a part Apartments dot Com.
Speaker 1: That's that it works. He's got that weird inflection right.
I don't know why, but.
Speaker 2: I used to have like a same length impression like
Capital one credit card for Samuel Jackson, but it was
it would be too loud. I think I'd wake up
one of my kids.
Speaker 1: That's okay, there's another.
Speaker 2: But you know what it's worth it get ready, honey,
just like telling her that beyond call. I'm going to
do an impression on a podcast.
Speaker 1: Honey, don't worry, it's an impression.
Speaker 2: Obscure darn me. Oh, I had the Hodge Twins. Oh please,
all right, let's see. Oh Man, so man you're funny.
Yeah he is man, big truck. Yeah, let's good, boy
truck truck. That's perfect a sentence. I was like, what
do you think of this? He's like, not bad, but
he knows that it's not fair.
Speaker 1: The real problem culture of.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, yeah, oh yeah. I had a Jimmy did
you ask the Jimmy Aikin?
Speaker 1: I did the It was awesome.
Speaker 2: The Roger Rabbit. So he he's a guy like uh
he he talks a lot and fast and like is
pretty succinct. He can go on forever. So I had
to write out all my answers for that and the questions.
I'm like, ask me this, and then I wrote a
tone about why Roger Rabbit is possible? So as Jimmy
Aikins said, that was niche And that's one of the
ones that yet again I like, I'll study.
Speaker 1: Tell me a little a little bit of a brief
explanation and justification Jimmy for why it is possible.
Speaker 2: All right, let's see if I can pull him out. Well,
that's a good question. I think we first have to
look at the source material. There is a lot, so
let's get to it. Woo. Uh.
Speaker 1: I probably said, now that we've listened to the shorts material,
we can prove that this is actually false and the
culture of everg just never said, everybody, I've noticed my
voice of reason is just turning more and more and
more into TikTok from Return of Oz. I was trying
to explain to Ryan the other day what this was,
and he was like, I've never seen this. I've never
heard it, but if you've, if you've watched Return to Oz,
I don't know how in my head, voice of Reason
is just TikTok and they pretty much Dorothy Gail, wind
me up, Dorothy Gail.
Speaker 2: Oh, I know, I know Returned to Oz. That's the
it's the it's the Showtime show about prison prisoner's recidivism.
They went back no no, no, no, no.
Speaker 1: No, no wrong no one wrong one. Uh that was
no Serge Jay for the ZZ that here's five bucks.
I'm dying over here. Yeah, I don't even remember how
I or why I did Allan or Helen what did
a ZZ compression? But I think it was one time
we were watching we were watching the Jordan Peterson's Z
that debate, and I was like, this dude is doesn't
even seem like a real person. He seems like a
cartoon character, but.
Speaker 2: Like a gross cartoon man.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. I don't want to make you stay here
all night with dueling impressions, but you've got You've got
a wide variety and it's awesome. Thank you guys so
much for the super chats. We're gonna send. As I said,
we're gonna split the super chats with Ryan Ryan to
I top jack O Maddix says, for five dollars, do
a Joe Rogan. I can't do it, Joe Rogan. People
that have like really kind of normal, sort of average
monotone style voices, it's really hard for me to pick
them out. Ryan actually is impressing me with like pulling
out a whack, pulling out like like people that don't
have noticeably different voices.
Speaker 2: To me, it's an accent because he's got that.
Speaker 1: He does have a jersey, you know, tinge for sure?
Speaker 2: You for real though, like that dude's Yeah, that guy's
a poser.
Speaker 1: Dude, that's perfect. Really, that's just like, that's awesome.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I gotta call him be Yeah, dude, it's
to you. Also, wait, I do have a Joe Rogan
but it's not great. I'm trying to work on it
a little more. But uh so it's some he goes like, wow,
that is crazy. Man. That's a bad motherfucker. Man, Dude,
he'll choke you out. And there's a thing he does,
a frogginess like in Fear Factor. You can hear it
a lot when he's calling.
Speaker 1: That was pretty good, dude, that was pretty good.
Speaker 2: Thank you. But he's got like a fry get almost
like a Jordan Peterson sell frogginess. But I have to
put them both together. So one is like it's like, wow,
you have thirty seconds. Like it's honestly that he gets
that froggy. It does go, but like the intro and
outro to it, like the transition into like the smooth
way that it talks. Man, it's crazy. Like I gotta
emerge those two and then I will have a Joe
Rogan impression.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a really tough one. I'm impressed that you
can do that five dollars choice? Can you do Tony Soprano? Actually,
when I was doing the Sopranos, when we did the
whole podcast on it, when I was super fresh with it,
I got pretty good with Tony Polly and Christopher christ Right,
I could do. I could do Tony. Okay, I could
do come on Fallny right. They got a Christopher, we
got a Tony.
Speaker 4: The fucus come come up with the with you.
Speaker 1: But I haven't heard Tony in so long. I'd have to.
I'd have to retool my Tony.
Speaker 2: But it's right to fuck here about talking through your
mouth because the way talking.
Speaker 1: To Hitch when he's getting mad, but even that's.
Speaker 2: Not the way that like the actor talks. So thinking
about that it helped me because I was like, oh, yeah,
this is And then I heard somebody else do it.
Max Kotch from The Opian Anthony Show. He called like,
after this is kind of wrong looking back at it,
but like after Tony Soprana died, this impersonator who's like
perfect at it called in. He's like, man, I don't
know what happened. Is fucking wrong? Got the lights and
to argem.
Speaker 1: Like the lights it's it's a it's a little bit
of a like a like he's like his nose is
stopped up exactly.
Speaker 2: And so listening to the actual actor James Gandelfini talking
and then hearing him do that voice, it's like, oh,
he doesn't even talk to it. And and then you
realize it's like this is the way he talks and
interviews and stuff like that. And then you add a
little bit of a it's a little life that with
the fuck that's only what if I get a little louder,
it gets a little bit better. But these are quiet impressions.
This is a challenge. I like this challenge. Oh a
liver king. I got a liver king. Oh nice, Yeah, pribals,
you have to be grounded into the earth. The nine
in Central tendons of ripping off the customers, pretending that
you're not on sterboids and acting like a humid lion,
a cartoon lion couple. And I had a tiger king too.
That's probably not good anymore, but back in the when
it was out and it was fresh like that, damn
Carol beskids. And he's got a way way I tuck
it where it kind of sounds like he's got a
little bit of British accent. Now I'm fully British. Now
now it's gone. You gotta be careful.
Speaker 1: Do you have do you have a Tarantino? The problem
is that I have to get loud doing Tarantino.
Speaker 4: No, no, like, I don't like it's like, okay, Taranteed.
The key to Tarantine okay is that he's got a
little bit of a gay sound and he wants to
shut your butt down. Okay, I'm shutting your butt down
because you know about film. You don't know jack Ship
about film.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: Brian Depalmer is one of the best directors of all time.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's like this spurgy, almost gay ish lisp, but
with like weird but he's from what doesn't he's from Tennessee.
It doesn't make any sense, Like why is it Tennessee
talking like a gangster?
Speaker 2: I'm kind of like, from Tennessee is like the craziest
thing I've ever heard. He seems like he'd be from.
Speaker 1: From you know, he's from Knoxville, Tennessee.
Speaker 2: That is so weird. It's weird. Do you ever see
his breakdown about top Gun?
Speaker 4: I have listen my butt anytime.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good impression to tip for him is
like just talk like a guy who only wants to
be asking for feet images the entire time. But is
he's forced to talk about these stupid movies.
Speaker 4: Listen, Okay, they didn't call me Quentin Tarantine toe for nothing.
Speaker 1: Okay, Sergia says for ten dollars not to get personal.
But I heard Sam mentioned recently he believes in christ
I'm wondering if Jay had influenced or Sam came to
this conclusion or Ryan. I'm curious about your takes. What
do you think. I have had conversations with Sam about
Christianity and one of the things that he was writing
that he wanted to bring in Christian paradigm worldview too,
something science fiction related. But I don't know that that
or me or anything like that had an influence. Perhaps
Ryan does or knows.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I know that it's it's I'm
noticing this. I could relate it to a friend of
mine who was like an iron Rand atheist, like so
you know, Christopher Hagen's fan atheists, but the world like
it's seemingly like the devil has overplayed his hand and
like pridefully putting his stamp of authorship on the evils
and degeneracy that we're seeing. And it's just so blatantly
obvious that it is pushing people to Christ and whatever
form that may be. And so when my friend was
like he started asking the right questions with an open heart,
and it's like he's like attending church now too, and
whatever nascent form that it was, it was sort of
non denominational at the time whatever. Like I was like,
let's worry about that later, you know, I don't want
to like jump on him and be like this is
what you got to do with the like just kind
of letting it bloom. And he would start praying more,
and he had this thing where his neighbor had a
pride flag. This is a guy who would never lie
about anything, like he's from Fargo. He's like a very
one of the most trustable guys ever. And he told
me the story about how he was every morning he
would pray, but his neighbor erected this like aggressive trans
pride flag LGBT thing with barbed wire around it, like
not physical, but you like print it on there, like
get your hands off my pride foot. Anyway, he prays
for it and for it to like go away or
for him to be healed. Whatever. He just doesn't like
seeing it. There's a storm or something that a metal
pole bent like for real. It was like it I
went out there to pray like four days later or whatever.
I just I hadn't thought about it for like four days,
and it was like like the pole bent down, and
it was like, I don't know. I was like, yeah,
I was like, well, the thing is is I don't know.
I mean, but that's could be. I don't think it's
a coincidence. I think it's just he was shown something
really direct and he was asking for the right thing.
I mean, that is a complete aversion inversion of what
is right. Pride. Yeah, literally bad iky.
Speaker 1: It's icky, uh droning the scenery two dollars. It's like
chugging bloody degenerously.
Speaker 3: You know, it's like chugging bloody degeneracy.
Speaker 2: You know. You ever see a clip of him seem
like a dude, man bro he says that.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not.
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
Speaker 1: I remember a long time ago. One of my favorite
quotes from Jordan Peterson was like it's like maybe even
like seven years ago, and he says something crazy like.
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes I've got thoughts so deep they don't
make words for it.
Speaker 2: That was really good, dude, that was.
Speaker 1: It, Maximus Pike. No, sorry, we did that. We skipped
one here. Let me go back top Jack of Maatic

I don't think they're interested in having a debate. Apenin
two pounds. The Careless Coffee Company is a highlight of
EP I don't I don't know what that is.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to work in a Sam Chamun impression.
Speaker 1: By the way, Uh, that would be funny to get
a Sam Schimun impression going out. I haven't even I
haven't even thought about it. You've got one.
Speaker 2: This is not it. This is a demo version. But
it's like pull us a five run out. What does
it say, go to go to Ephesians? What does it say?
Read it to me? It says that that is the
thing that it does. Now you cand say it. I mean,
I don't know whether I have sort of a cadence there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the cadence is getting the work. But he's got
it's it's allowed, you know, kind of like it's it was.
It was always like a little bit of a preacher
in there too, like an Arab like an Arab version
of a black preacher going on as well.
