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