921. - Chris & Jason

27:28Jason Stewart:I would say, but the shop, I think it also transcends beyond the creative worlds and into, you know, VC and private equity. Yes, yeah, of course, of course, of course. Legal firms and things like that. Like, yeah, we're going to go down to Charleston, open up a little shop and just kind of move some things around, blah, blah, blah. I just don't, I just find it, I don't know what it is. I'm trying to think of other terms like this that bother me, but they all bother me. and obviously I'm part of the problem, but I really try. I will say extra words that maybe even make me sound dumber to avoid, to circumvent saying an industry term that could make me.

28:06Jason Stewart:You will gladly take three right turns instead of one left turn if it means not having to do the shot. You know what? Just go around the block. Just go around the block. I'm just going to avoid it all gone. Maybe another way to distinguish it and we can combine this with one of my peeves is it's a small business that is owned and operated by people, not so much distinguishing whether it's a creative firm or not, but more so it's owned and operated by people who, when they're explaining something to you, they use the word right. Yeah. They say the word right to themselves as a punctuation every sentence to make sure that you are following along to their master plan thesis that they are getting the pleasure of being spewed to.

28:52I love getting spewed on. I, yeah, I don't like that either. I'm trying, I'm just really trying to, I only, you're right. It's a very certain kind of person that says shop. And I feel like it is, you're right. I think it started, to me, it came from creative agencies. It came from like big agencies. And a guy would leave his agency to start his own and call it a shop. And I would always bristle at that, but I didn't, I wouldn't speak up, you know. But now that it's been bastardized by the VCPE community, you know, we're all moving to Austin to start my own shop, it feels like an easier thing for other people to join in on the hate train with me.

29:30Jason Stewart:It's kind of like you're just like the de-badging of the Prada. It's like you could leave your business and then go start a new business and that's fine. But once you start saying, I'm going to go open my own shop, it's like a reverse sort of like I'm trying to be self-deprecating i'm just doing this little dinky thing yes it's fake exactly it's fake it's fake self it's fake self-deprecation it's like you're absolutely right like i'm trying to minimize it's it's compliment fishing oh my little shop we've only got 20 million under management like when people say like oh where'd you go to school i went to school in boston yeah just like little kind of things and you're like well you you can say it in a douchey way and you could say it in a normal way well luckily now you can you know find out any of this information i just i just remember when i first started writing and somebody would ask you know ask i would the first time i saw a tk in a document you know i was like i don't know what the fuck i still don't know what that means i still had to ask somebody i still had to ask people what that meant you know what i mean and like now you can obviously google that and you know everything but everybody knows every industry term so it's like a head and a deck and a tk and a fucking whatever in in in journalism exists a slug line a tagline every industry yeah oh god that all the hollywood shit is footer all all the hollywood shit's the absolute worst you know what i mean log line go to hell uh hollywood shit's the fucking worst but every industry has it and i'm thinking like imagine if if i was like you know at dinner with some doctors and they they had like they must have it too they they have to have it or is it just medical terms that that that we would never know do you know what i mean is it is it actual vernacular or is it just the words and we're so unfamiliar with them that it would feel like like industry speak you know what i'm saying just like oh like i'm sorry hey guys i know you're talking but like what does af mean and then everyone laughs i'm like anal fissure you fucking idiot we can't write it on the chart i'm sorry i didn't go to medical school i didn't write on the chart oh i yeah i just i i something about that that argument i felt i felt weirdly

31:42justified when you chimed in and backed me up. And I just wanted to thank you for that. Even though it wasn't charity, I know you just were expressing your honest feelings. It meant a lot to me.

31:51Jason Stewart:Well, I would say you're welcome, but I guess I'm not going to because you said in a rare moment of a rare voice of reason moment. So I'm going to take my words back. Well, I don't think you ever aspire to be the voice of reason. That's not your function. You're more of a funky cat than that. That's not what you're trying to do. You leave that for boring people. I'm a funky cat with reason. No, I'm not saying you're not unreasonable. I'm just saying in a group setting, I don't think you're the guy that's trying to come off as the voice of reason. Ever. No, I'm trying to come off as the voice of reason and the funniest one and low key the hottest.

32:33No, but I'm saying like if I was like I'm going to jump off this bridge into the water, you wouldn't be like, hey, bro, don't do that. That's dangerous. Like, be the voice of reason. Wrong! You know, you'd be like, yeah, bitch, do it, pussy. That's what you would say, and you know it.

32:45Jason Stewart:No. You know that's what you'd say. If I was going to - No, I'm afraid of the big jumps. I know you're afraid. I know you're - If it was something that - I know you're afraid of them, but you want to see me do it. That's what I mean. It's not - I'm not saying you would do it. I know you would. I'm saying I would never call you a pussy about something that I'm also a pussy about. That's - Oh, okay. Let me be clear. All right, all right. If you - Okay, here's a better example. We're at a red light. We're at San Vicente and whatever, and it's time to turn right, and there's a car in the lane, and it's a very thin needle that you have to go into in order to turn.

33:17Jason Stewart:You got to punch it. Right on there, and let's say you're a little too cock shy to thread that needle, and I'll just wait for it to turn green. I'm not in that big of a rush. Then I'll be like, do it, pussy. Bring those side view mirrors in and bring it in, you little fucking bitch. Yeah, that's fine. And that's fine because if we get hit by the oncoming car, then we're both at risk. So it feels like you have some skin in the game in that case. Ooh, yeah. TJ turns into T-Bone. Am I right? My legs are bleeding. Let's talk about Chapeau Rhone. Oh, dude, I even wrote this down. That's how egregious it is.

33:55Oh, man, dude. All right, so you must live under a rock if you know this, but Chapel Rowan was doing, I believe it's Lollapalooza in Brazil. Wouldn't come to Brazil, you know, becomes real.

34:07Jason Stewart:Listen, don't come to Brazil, bitch. And she was in the hotel lobby, or the breakfast at the hotel, and the story goes an 11-year-old girl saw her. Like, wow, you eat breakfast? Fucking fatty. An 11-year-old girl saw her and sort of didn't approach her, but like looked at her and smiled or made eye contact in hopes. Walk past her table the way a child would walk past a Disney princess at Disneyland in full shock, awe, and wonderment. And then after that, a security guard approached the table and berated the 11-year-old girl and her family. And unfortunately for Chapel, the 11-year-old girl's step...

34:46Her father is Jude Law, but the stepfather who was there is some famous football player whose name I can't even say. He took to social media to let her have it, and now chapel has responded from bed saying she don't know who that security guard is he doesn't work for her and that she quote unquote loves children which i think all of it is true except for the part that she likes anybody um i think i think the security guard could have been like hotels you know like not her personal security therefore she has no jurisdiction over what he

35:19Jason Stewart:does right it was it was a super citizen security guard who was working for the hotel and he's like I'm going to go secret service mode on this fucking 11-year-old heiress. But the problem with Chabarone has too much. I'm going to slide tackle this bitch like Ronaldinho. She's got too much bat. She's proven to be this kind of person too many times. So if anything happens, everybody believes it. Everybody believes it. And I have to say, the memes are unbelievable. The memes are incredible. I mean, that's the beauty of things like this, especially in the Twitter world. It doesn't matter if any of this happened or not.

35:55Jason Stewart:it doesn't matter if this is full fabrication it doesn't matter if all those you know instagram story reply apology posts are ai generated just the just the setting that chapel rhone wants to physically attack and kill small children is funny it is it's a it's a premise that will last all weekend long i saw i saw one that's like charlie xcx does cocaine with 11 year old in the hospital showing how cool she is to the kids it was a make a wish do cocaine in the hospital but yeah i mean i i wanted to know because there's also rumor that she's saying i don't play about breakfast chapel and i was thinking that sounds like maybe a tj tweet from 20 2008 is that is that so far off base don't don't be playing on my plate now don't be playing on my plate because i know i know you don't eat breakfast now but at one point could you have been so in love with breakfast food that you say i don't want i don't play about breakfast it sounds like something you might say the irony and where i am relating and i'll let i'll explain this while i'll let you watch that click on that link that i sent you on on the text message but i never eat breakfast at home but if i'm in a hotel you know i'm gonna in a month from now i'm gonna be or whatever two months from now i'm gonna be at you know i'll be in new york saying at nine orgy or whatever and you best believe it's breakfast time 7 a.m let me get the uh you want bacon or do you want avocado with that yes hook it up let me get a green juice orange juice red juice black juice coffee tea you know fuck it all up this episode of how long gone is brought to you by our new sponsor car gurus i'm a car junkie car shopping is a is a pain in the rear jason we all know that you know you go to the dealership you got a hassle with these bozos you're trying to leave that day they don't have the color they don't have the interior finally go to home your side chick keys it meet car gurus discover a new search feature where you can look for vehicles based on the way you think using your own words no more being boxed in by filters i hate when filters do that whether you want to get great gas mileage for road trips or extra extra trunk space for the whole crew.

With agents who close twice as many deals, when you find the one, you've got a real shot at getting it. Get started at redfin.com. Own the dream. It's well documented that you like free food almost as if you couldn't afford your own. That's on record. Yeah. That's proven. But Chappell, she may come from humble beginnings as well and she may have um you know food desert trauma just like your boy that's no i'm not saying that i'm that doesn't mean so you know don't get in the way of my place i just think that her her attitude about fame is so crazy and i just think that it is a generational it really is like a generational difference it's it's like some some gen z i don't owe you anything like boundary shit that like we just don't have like it really feels like a different type of person a different approach to life and no amount of money like scolding a paparazzi photographer like what do you think that's gonna do he does not give a fuck about you he probably doesn't even know who you are he's not going to stop you're not gonna you're just gonna look like a bitch what's the what's the point you get off your chest and you feel good i don't know i just don't know what the point is of her constant either stop doing it because that's part of the job for better or worse or stop complaining there's just no there's no it doesn't it's it's fruitless it's an exercise that goes nowhere well i think that all of all of our pop stars and famous people they sort of have been categorized because that's just what people do now instead of like enjoying things we have to like organize them and categorize them and put them into little boxes and places and different areas of society they all need their idol to look up to and she's sort of like the karen idol like of that type of person who's just like that annoying ass bitch yeah she is like no she is the mother of that and that legion is strong enough to have her you know be hoisted up to you know the top of the charts and become you know a giant massive success well representing this group of people that are not good.

41:31Jason Stewart:Unfortunately, I know that she's quadruple vaccinated and wears a mask to go to the bathroom. I don't know. She might be an anti-vaxxer. Who knows? No way. She's like, don't play with my white blood cell count. Unfortunately, I do love her music. That's the issue. She is very good at making music. the problem pink pony club pink pony club is an all-time absolute smash as good as a song can get for that sort of music you know that is like alt unbelievably good and i have to put respect on her name um but this stuff will i mean when boy george said like bitch relax like this is just part of it people killed it you just it's just so funny how mad it makes people including me him saying that while he's wearing like prosthetic Lucifer makeup with like an 11 inch cock.

42:30Jason Stewart:And he's like, babes, we gotta slow it down a bit. You're just too crazy, babes. What do you mean? Yeah, I think it's, I just wonder what happens because it's only gonna get, like unless you stop putting out hits, which I think would literally be impossible for her. Like I think that, what happens? It just, I don't think this is gonna change anytime soon for her. I don't want it to happen because she just keeps, as she becomes more and more of a villain of society and butt of memes, her stage sizes and her audience sizes only seem to grow. So like we maybe as everything has been, you know, categorized into little areas and we have our, you know, work from home, war, you know, discord server, stand account battles or whatever, you know, we need villains for our trusted Zara Larsons to fight against in the idol wars.

43:24What did Zara Larson, what did she say? She lost three million for saying what? She had like a three million, there's something where she was like, I lost three mil for saying something. I can't remember what it was.

43:33Jason Stewart:Maybe it was Gaza related. Dude. Or Zara related. There ain't nothing on earth saying. The store. Anything I can think of that is more important than three million dollars. Like I don't know what I would say. Oh, I got it. Zara Larson says her viral abortion joke cost her a$3 million deal. Quote, I don't give a rat's ass because I'm sure of my stance on that. Okay, Zara Larson, have your stance. We're probably with you. We probably agree with you. But you don't need to... You making a bad joke and losing three milli, that's just stupid. I don't think so. I don't think so. I think she'll make that lick back.

44:10She will not make that lick back. $3 million to be in a fucking Instagram video? I'm not talking about hard work. She flushed$3 million. She's not a comedian. She made a joke and it wasn't good.

44:22Jason Stewart:Yeah, but she's at the beginning of a very quickly ascending career. She's going to make$3 million five other ways in 2026. It don't matter. No one can afford to lose out on$3 million. Everyone wants$3 million. I feel like she comes from a pretty good home already. Her parents would help her out with rent if things really get bad. Oh, I'm not saying that. I just mean like you're not a comedian. You just lost$3 million on a joke that was bad. I don't know. I think what's going to happen is someone, a different company will come out and say like, hey, we're going to give you$3 million because we believe in what you say.

45:03Jason Stewart:She's like, great. Thanks for the$3 million. I'm going to keep it instead of the abortion relief fund that I could donate to. Yeah. Yeah. If she gets it now, she's got to donate it. What is Zara Larson? I don't know anything about her except what she looks like. I know she's got hits, but it's like bad, brain-dead EDM vocal vibe. I haven't really listened to it. I did hear Zach Fox play a song, like a techno-y, hyper-poppy remix of one of the songs. I didn't recognize it. But I know just from what I've seen online, it appears that her target demographic are like K-pop demon hunter age people. it's like eight year olds coming up on stage and performing with them kind of thing that that isn't that's what i assumed because it doesn't really i see a lot of pictures of her scantily clad but no one i've never heard her music or talk or anyone talk about her music really i mean yeah she's huge she's blowing up people like her music but it does seem like you know music for children like k-pop demon hunter does she have a spicy but she has a spicy personality maybe i don't know i mean it's just a blonde chick that looks swedish so as as spicy as a swedish person can get which is like dijon mustard sometimes those swedish people they don't even know what they're saying no offense to my swedes love y 'all love y 'all love my swedes because their their native tongue is so sing-songy you mean stockholm is the motherland but yeah zara might who knows bro zara might have been living in the valley for 20 years she might have acclimated we don't know we don't know that's true there's no way of finding out either there's no there's no way to find out where zara larson lives there's okay just a just a quick aside i i think screenshotted a great instagram story some guy had a neck tattoo and he was showing it and one comment said this phrase which i think transcends the comment section it could be work could be use in other future premises in our lives are you networking or are you neck working oh 100 emoji hands up emoji i know some i know some gay guys have gotten ahead in creative industries from networking for sure it ain't okay i see that i see the difference now i see right neck neck working neck working is really funny and then to me i say why why not both you know what i mean oh no of course i would never yeah yeah whatever you gotta do to get ahead you know we support that here on how long gone that's no yeah babe yeah i gotta go to vegas this weekend it's just some neck working event you wouldn't want to go babe no i'm at the conference i've been doing some neck working after dinner it's uh it's going pretty well so far babe but i'll give you a call tomorrow when i'm when i'm at the office all right uh i want to talk a little dave grohl he's he's been going to therapy six days a week uh after he was discovered to be fathering a secret family it's crazy it's crazy that nobody he spent all this money and no one told him about substack it's just crazy that he didn't he had an opportunity to monetize his pain and instead he's been spending so apparently i saw some sort of fact where dave girls he's been to like 500 or like 450 therapy sessions in like a obviously very short amount of time yeah to me it reminds me of like when you when you're watching some like horror movie or some like psychological thriller and like some crazy guy like kills kills somebody and then he like freaks out and starts crying and he starts to try to like you know like i'm gonna sew the arm back on and that's gonna make it come back to life right and then everyone's like please just stop and he's like no i'm gonna keep uh you know it feels like at a certain point don't you just get the do you need this many hours of therapy to get through what happened well it depends on what that prenup's looking like jason because if i mean but i mean at a certain point he's hanging out with his therapy he's spending more time with his therapist about cheating on his wife than his wife yeah she probably likes that exactly she's like i can get this motherfucker out of here imagine if you hung out with your wife six days a week nobody wants to hang out with anybody six days a week that's i mean six six well it's what I guess I want to hang out with my wife six days a week.

49:10I don't know if I want to pay for it. That's the difference. Because you know Dave Grohl is paying$600,$700 an hour. He ain't going to some. He don't got insurance. Right, right, right. This ain't covered. But maybe this is karmic retribution for the Foo Fighters. You know what I mean? Maybe this is. I will say, and I hate to admit this, but I was listening to a Foo Fighters song recently and forgot how good it was.

49:35Jason Stewart:Hopefully it was early Foo from the album. Big me. Big me. Yeah, yeah. What a classic. Unbelievable song. But Dave Grohl, as the drummer of Nirvana, one of the most beloved bands of all time globally, obviously he's had an amazing, fruitful career, but I would say that maybe no one, he's one of the greatest examples of going the wrong way and benefiting him financially and every other way not benefiting him. Like, you're the drummer in Nirvana. like that's that's you that's it you're good for life but foo fighters have put out 10 albums that are bad at least you know and i don't know if he recovers from that but he's everybody loves him so he must be a great guy i wonder except his wife i'm trying to think if there's any other parallels where that's happened maybe new order is the only one i can think of where like the cool amazing front man who is you know larger than life and the reason why it's all happening dies very young and the rest of the band carries on and i'm sure in you know 1983 when new order first came out all the joy division heads were like this is some fucking bullshit but i mean i'm a huge new order fan so same if we were born if we were 20 years older would we be clowned for liking new order the way somebody who listens to foo fighters would be very very very possibly i I mean, but we were, you know, we technically, I think because of our age, I think we're supposed to be Foo Fighters fans.

51:00You know what I mean? As far as like, I remember when this album with the little toy gun on the front was huge. I mean, it was the biggest alternative radio album of that, whatever, you know, two to three year period.

51:11Jason Stewart:There Goes My Hero, Everlong. Those are classics. There's no denying. Well, I liked when Foo Fighters were at their best was when their bass line still sounded like Sunny Day Real Estate and not some fucking like Jack White shit. The coolest thing I've ever done was have the guy from Sunday Real Estate in the band. Got a groover back there. And I also love Pat Smear, another legend that I'm happy to see. Pat Smear being in the germs and then being a millionaire from playing fucking guitar in the Foo Fighters is a great story. That's cool. Smear on the pod, man. I think Dave Grohl, I think he means well.

51:45I think he means well, and I think he's a talented guy. But the Foo Fighters, I don't know, man. I don't know what it is, but there's something about it that stinks. and it doesn't have that sort of the way that i know a lot of people who love third eye blind or counting crows or whatever bands from that era that were just as big for some reason foo fighters i don't know anyone that has good taste that ever talks about the foo fighters at all yeah and even

52:09Jason Stewart:even in like a funny way yeah if it's it's npc listener co-worker music i mean i'm biased obviously i'm mentioning i'm mentioning bands that i like you know what i mean that are from that era obviously I'm biased but I just something about Foo Fighters it just didn't have any even though it was so more it has so much more going for it in theory like all the things we just named he was in Nirvana Pat Smear Sonny Rissett whatever it just did not it had no ounce not one ounce of cool ever to bring it back to the the founder Kia Asylum it feels as if the CEO of this cool amazing company died somehow you know helicopter accident or gunshot or heroin overdose.

52:52Jason Stewart:And then this larger than life enigmatic personality. Now the CFO runs the company. No shade to your father and his accounting familia over there at his little shop down there in Decatur. But it feels like the numbers guy, the accounting guy in the band is suddenly the front man now. And everyone's like - No, that's a really good, honestly, it's a really good parallel. This is positively swag less. But I could listen. I mean, yeah, and they do have undeniable hits, but I just think that it's like something about it. I don't know, man. And he's beloved. He's beloved in the music business, and I think that's part of the reason the scandal of him, like it didn't really, it kind of came and went.

53:33You know what I mean? Like it was news for a couple days because obviously it's big news, but like no one really cares. You know, no one really cares.

53:39Jason Stewart:I think it got more, it was more traction when the Coldplay cheating scandal happened, you know, of two people that no one has ever heard of. Yeah, yeah. Maybe because there was video. Yeah, but the video of them romantically swaying to a Coldplay song isn't like, we're not in the Motel 6 by the airport. You know what I'm saying? It's not that incriminating. I would like to see what Dave's type was. I'd like to see who he was. I think she looks like his wife. Who's putting in the Uber at 4 a.m.? I think it's just like a blonde chick like his wife. That little freak. It's out there, but I'm not going to look at the Daily Mail right now, Jason.

54:15Jason Stewart:No, don't do that. I want to briefly mention Young Thug's clothing item that he was seen in his alligator shirt you talking about the gator shirt for 20? what's up with the gator shirt and why does it look like that? when you say for 20 was that 20 ,000? that's 20 bands that reminds me I was watching the music video for Grills Jermaine Dupri of course you act like I don't know Jermaine Dupri, Paul Wall Paul Wall, baby. Nelly. Paul Wall looks great, by the way. Gip and Ali as well. We've talked about Gip on the pod before. He'll come on eventually. Love Gip. Love Gip. He's so good. But I was watching the video for Grills, and then Gip had this great line about having jewelry, gold teeth, and diamonds in his mouth.

55:09Jason Stewart:And he said, there's a bill in my mouth like I'm Hillary Rodham. and i was like what a what a nice you know late 90s throwback rap that is what can i ask why you were watching the grills video so sometimes on weekends when i'm hung over i like to watch network television instead of like streaming programs i like there's like a weird comfort and solace i get in watching you know like a random tennis or golf or you know diners drive-ins and dives type shit and was scrolling through and mtv was playing like trl classic throwbacks so it was like michelle branch grills you know 50s you know all this cool shit and this jewel video came on that's bringing me back but yeah that came on and i remembered and forgot how good gip was i loved gip from the goody mom gips the best i you know that's funny smooth character Very smooth.

56:02In a way that I feel like doesn't happen anymore. It felt really natural. It felt really drug dealer.

56:07Jason Stewart:He was so good that huge rappers would be like, let's give him the third verse on this smash so he can get a nice little check right now. He's so awesome. We just want to make sure he always gets third verse on or whatever. I was thinking about Jewel the other day, Jason. That's so funny you brought her up. There's a song called Foolish Games. Sure. Pieces of You. Absolute classic. Smash. and I was thinking about it the other day and I was like, you know, I need to listen to that. I'm going to listen to that. I'm going to go get a haircut. I'm going to listen to that shit on the bike. I'm going to listen to Jewel.

56:37Me crying down Halston on the city bike. He was listening to Jewel in 1997.

56:43Jason Stewart:All-time best episode of Joe Rogan podcast was Jewel. Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. I forgot about that. She's a freaky chick. Young thug. I think he's really destroyed his career and legacy so quickly. He's turned into a – I don't know. I don't think he's ever going to write another good song again Oh no definitely not I mean I don't know What he could do at this point I mean people I never really got it It was never really my thing Obviously there's like classics but the way people talk About him I just never fully it never clicked With me that way but It is night and day from what It was five years ago He lost his Fastball or whatever He's no no gum hundo I'll tell you that.

57:27I'm not familiar with no gum.

57:28Jason Stewart:He's no ball out. Okay. You know what's been discovered in my household, even though I told her about it two months ago, is the new T.I. song that has white women over the age of 30 going absolutely fucking crazy. I don't know it. Because it sounds, it's good as hell. The new T.I. song is like good. Okay. It sounds like, it's like a, it's gone viral on the internet because like. Is it called Let Them Know? I think so, yeah. All 35-year-old white women like they used to go to the club. There's nowhere to hear music like that anymore. So they're doing like, it's like two nurse practitioners in scrubs doing the dance, like doing a dance to it on TikTok.

58:07Jason Stewart:Right, right, right, right. It's a hit. I mean, it's a smash. And he cut his hair. He's wearing the fitted again. But I also heard, I heard on Joe Budden that there's a new, there is a new young droverse on something. And it was sounding, it was also sounding pretty good. If we're going, if we want to go back to the glory days of Atlanta, which I always do. I'm a dro lover. I know you are. Okay. I'm glad to hear Grand Hustle Entertainment is still in this. Grand Hustle is still in this? Yeah, there's Grand Hustle. Grand Hustle, baby. And shout out to Afro Man, a true patriot. Dude, the Afro Man story, that's a real feel-good story.

58:40Even though it made a lot of people feel bad, overall, I think it's a real feel-good story. And I think that I didn't listen to – they were playing the songs on Joe Budden, like the songs he made, and I had not listened to the songs. And it really makes it different. If you're familiar with that story and you haven't heard the songs that he recorded about the officers, I highly recommend queuing those up and checking them out because it's much funnier than I thought it would be.

59:06Jason Stewart:I think it's a great example of a guy who's like, he loves his country. He's a patriot. He's good hearted and chill, has a good attitude. He uses the law correctly and he skirts around things and he does legal things to get his lick back through the court system and it worked. and I feel like that's so rare to see nowadays and I feel like as a country that still has free speech we should be doing more things like that getting creative with bringing down our it's so good corrupted police officers it's like making a song about a cop who looked like he wanted to eat your lemon pound cake that was sitting on the counter is so fucking funny and so specific and how that cut so deep I'll never know but it really did It ruined this guy's life.

59:58Jason, if I saw a lemon pound cake sitting on your fucking, cooling on your windowsill, I would be looking at it lustfully too. Who can resist?

1:00:07Jason Stewart:There's a little rosemary on there, maybe a little olive oil drizzle. Who could resist that, Jason? You're merely a man. And if you don't like Afro-Man or if you want to feel a different way about him, pull up the video of him punching a woman on stage. Whoa. Have you seen this? No. It was from like a couple years ago and he was playing a guitar solo on stage and a woman, like a drunk chick, jumps up and starts to like grind on him while he's doing the solo. And I guess there had been a guy who was like harassing him in the crowd, like some drunk guy earlier. And he had his back to her and he felt somebody come up on stage.

1:00:45Jason Stewart:Oh, he didn't know. Oh, shit. He turns around and cold cocks this 43-year-old woman who's just trying to rub her bussy up on him for a minute. Just turns around and just hits her perfectly right in the head. He had to do some anger management counseling and stuff. Oh, God, that sucks. God, that sucks. I saw a tweet saying after what happened to Dimebag, all bets are off. Oh, shit. I forgot about Dimebag. You were up on stage. Yeah, that's true. That is actually, I think you're kind of putting yourself in harm's way if you run up on stage. Akon's going to body slam you and you deserve it. And Akon's five feet.

1:01:22If he can body slam you, you deserve it. If he can pick you up, you're going to get it. You're going to get it. How was the DJ set last night? We didn't even talk, or whatever, on Friday night.

1:01:30Jason Stewart:Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, Friday after hitting Bardi Bello and enjoying some, you know, had a nice, wanted to keep it light before the club, had a nice little branzino with some roasted potatoes. Went down real nice. But yeah, the club was very good. I played right before Zach Fox, and it was fucking lit as hell, man. Sweaty-ass, lit-ass club. It was very fun. Let me ask you a question, because you posted something on your Instagram story, and it looked like it was from a DJ booth. I mean, I've seen thousands of Them Jeans photos taken from the DJ booth in my life, but I have not seen what looked to be like a small but full-size bong in the DJ booth.

1:02:12It was a bong lit? but I just mean it was a, it wasn't like a, it had all its parts.

1:02:18Jason Stewart:You're saying a bubbler, this was not, this was, this was a full on bong. It was just kind of scaled down to maybe one third size or something like that. Yeah. And did you. Still fully operational, of course. Did you hit that in the booth? I did not hit that in the booth. The, uh, somebody, I guess who will go unnamed was, was enjoying that another DJ. And I was like, wow, I've never seen a bong in the club. and I love... No narking, but who brought the bong to the club? Another DJ? Yes. Okay, okay. Very cool. I mean, that was the thing where I was talking about maybe getting the Benz going from a friends and family dinner at a fancy schmancy restaurant, you know, a suit and tie type affair and then going straight into the sweaty sweat dripping down from the ceiling nightclub playing booty bass techno club and all that stuff and it was great to go from that kind of hoity-toity-ish and buttoned up environment and walk instantly into a building where they're like, not only can you bring a bong in this club, you can just smoke it inside.

1:03:24Jason Stewart:It's cool. And nobody cares. And that felt like a great kind of transformation of environment. It's really cool. I love that you can straddle those worlds, Jason. I mean, who but you? It's been so long. I've been in a club DJing in America where it was like, oh yeah you want to have a sig right now pull out a sig and light it and security guard won't even consider even a thing was this at los globos or is it somewhere else not to narc but yeah well i mean i think everybody goes to los globos for a reason it's like a it's a sweat drip down the walls type place i don't want me i don't want karen bass listening to this and going down busting down the doors don't worry smoking indoors karen had ever been to silver lake um i i will Before we go, there was an airmail story about horses.

1:04:09Oh, didn't think you would bring this up. Well, because I'm not happy about it. I'm saying there has to be a worldwide ban on horses talk from now on. There's no more juice left to squeeze out of that dead orange.

1:04:25Jason Stewart:I think the juice is still being squeezed as they're figuring out legal court proceedings. But who cares? Who cares? The restaurant is closed. It doesn't matter. He didn't kill any cats. Who cares? Look, there's a documentary on Hulu about stuff like this every single week. It doesn't matter what it's about. It's just if it's juicy. And this has enough juice. But this isn't juicy. It's a closed restaurant that was open for two years. Like, it's not like it's some, there's no fall from grace. No one knew who this guy was. You're focusing on the restaurant when the juice is their interpersonal drama.

1:05:01Jason Stewart:it's the he said the she said the abuse the cats the this the text put it on TV if this was a reality show I would care but because you're two fucking clog wearing cooks I can't the visual ain't good the visual ain't good enough for me you can't sell me without a visual and there ain't no visual well Chris put your money where your mouth is let's start up a little shop and we will fund the horses documentary our little shops we're raising right now for just we have a few features in the works some in the reality space we've got Tiff in our crosshairs I'm sorry unscripted it's in the unscripted space it's in the unscripted have you ever seen Neighbors on A20 it's kind of like that it's unscripted yeah we're just kind of we're super nimble with it right now so just kind of taking meetings that's another one taking meetings fuck you don't take a meeting you have a meeting that's another I can't you don't wait on a line you wait in a line you don't wait on a line well in a line that's some new york shit that's it that's only new york and that one that one does get my goat i hate online means i'm i'm using a instant messenger i'm on netscape aol i'm in my geo cities what do you do i hang out online mostly what do you mean at apollo bagels no on a computer you fucking idiot no no not for the caramel protein foam latte uh for my chat room oh yeah if you want to go on the scaffolding above the line then you would be on the line then you'd be on it but if you're in the line then you're in the line hello god damn it how long gone we didn't even get to the ald turntable god damn it well i'm trying to get you one don't worry uh howlonggone.com is the website thank you to our techniques family uh we have a couple guests next week some good ones one of a fan favorite and all-time favorite returning one of our favorites oh yeah who has who one of the rare uh personality to back up the music which is one of you know obviously my favorite duo when when personality is as good if not better than the creative real uh output hold on to those people that's that's when how long gone gets excited um thank you guys for listening Oh, also, our Magna Blue Ice flavor is available now.
