0:03The Joe Rogan Experience Showing my day Joe Rogan podcast my night all day What's up Tommy? What's up man? Oh, are you my brother? What's crackin'? I'm super stoked man, thanks for having me Look at good, look at lean You fucking stuck with it man, you fucking stuck with it Try to, yeah I've been working hard at it actually It's crazy, I mean you've been so consistent It's amazing Isn't it weird how that works? That's what I've said that to a few people and they're like Yeah, that's what happened, I mean I don't know, I just keep I think I had this, I don't know if I told you like this mentality before where I would go if I got to a number on the scale I thought of it as like a finish line I didn't realize I was doing it but I was going oh I got there Right And then you just kind of go well if you're done you're done Yeah And then you just kind of regress So I just realized now that it's just it is every day It is life It's life, it's part of life, yeah Yeah, if you can think about it that way Also you got to think about it like delayed gratitude Delayed gratitude is a very important concept If you want to have a happy life You can't just have gratitude in front of your face all the time Yeah You'll just be a mess You want delayed gratitude and specifically for your physical health Because you don't feel good in the end of the day Like unless you've, when I don't work out if I have a day that I blow it off Which is rare but it does happen If I blow it off the end of the day I feel like a loser Yeah I know that's stupid I know it's stupid but it's that feeling inside of you that you didn't get ahead You didn't, you didn't, I mean it's one thing if it's like I need a rest day Rest days I can, I love them, let me watch TV, watch a movie Sure And don't listen to your body on that for sure And also your mind Yeah, I think your mind needs rest days Yeah, I enjoy a rest day now really I'm fucking But if you don't do the things you know you're supposed to do You have that fucking nagging thing in your head And that thing in your head, that nagging thing, that's hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of your day Yeah Whereas the workout you can just get 20 minutes in And that feeling's gone Totally Just get 20 minutes in I feel like a loser thing that also, but there's also this even like another layer to it Where on days when I don't do anything physical And it's like it's towards the end of the day I kind of go like what's wrong with me You know and like other like Christina might be like what's going on with you And then sometimes it takes me a moment and I'll be like I didn't work out today Yep That's what it is Oh I go yes so I have like this Mental health Yeah, it's fucking with my head I also have this like the anxiety has manifested itself physically So I just have this like oh I didn't I didn't exert myself So it's all it's all together And I go that's what it is So I go that tomorrow morning I got it I just got to get it in right away Yeah it's just one of those things like brushing your teeth You got to fucking do it You don't want to do it You do it and you feel better afterwards Like in little bursts of that's how I feel every time I get in that stupid cold plunge Every time I want to do it every time I do it I don't want to do it It always sucks Sucks never feels good We had this thing where we were doing we had to bank episodes of our podcasts So that means we were going into the studio at like I don't know 9 or 10 and then just spending the day there right And I knew that when I got home I'd be wiped And we got you know we were with the kids and we got to do dinner and get them ready for this So I was like I'm just going to get up and so every day I just got up a little earlier Cold plunge first So it's like that was my one cough It's the first thing I did Right the fuck Right the fuck up And then right to the gym And so that I would arrive at the studio in the best mood Yeah Just like really in a great mood Yeah And then I would zip through the day and I mean even they were like wow you're like nice You know like the staff Dude it's like if you could take that in a pill form it would be the most popular pill in the world 100 % No question Yeah And we're not talking about like being a bodybuilder We're not talking about killing you No Just getting your heart pumping, getting your sweat going, get those muscles moving, exert yourself Yeah I can get a fucking pretty good workout in in 20 minutes You can definitely get your heart going Yeah If I'm fucking super pressed for time You know it's crazy is that when I work out right after cold plunging Sometimes you're like wait, come on that's sweating Yeah You don't really want your core temperature Yeah It's dropped like 17 degrees And you're like oh You were 34 degrees for three minutes Yeah That's the fun I work outside after I do that Oh nice So I do my, I do the series of 100 bodyweight squats and 100 pushups every morning And the way I do it is I do it as my warm up now It's a good warm up to do right after you get out of the cold plunge So by the time I'm done with those I'm warmed up Wow Yeah But it's nice to do outside Yeah that is cool I, it's one of the only times that I really don't mind heat like real heat is during workouts Yeah I like working out in heat It's good for you I do not like a cold gym No When the air conditioning is blasting in a gym I don't like that No, not like that either I liked You know, crock gym where Tommy Harnes used to train They always kept the temperature up very high They did?

5:32Yeah they kept it like 95 degrees Yeah And Detroit And the reason, well manual Stewart was a genius, boxing genius, but also a genius physically He knew it's just like working out in a sauna Like the sauna actually gives you cardiovascular benefit just sitting there Because your heart's beating faster because it's trying to, by the time you cool you off Right Your heart is fuck You know I've had the heart strap on in the sauna and got up to 147 degrees Or excuse me, 147 beats per minute Just sitting there Yeah just sitting there Yeah just sitting there Yeah Especially because you do it in after a workout So I'm already fucking exhausted and then I get in that oven for 20 minutes And at the end of that 20 minutes my heart is jacked So it's all, you're getting static cardio just sitting there Just sitting there So if you're doing a boxing workout and it's 95 degrees your heart is jacked Yeah You're getting really worked out that's hard, it's like running with weights on Yeah and then imagine that feeling right after that like when you're done Yeah The relief Like a hot yoga class Remember when we were doing yoga?

6:31How many do we do 15 in a month? We did 15 Yeah That was nice dude That was nice Yeah Something about leaving those I went to one here in Austin Yeah I went to a hot yoga class and it was like just walk outside You're like this isn't any different This is the exact same temperature Yeah it's just yoga with no AC on God But it did you do feel this on and then that the way that like a cold drink taste right after Yeah Just water Yeah just cold water so good Yeah Do you take electrolytes? I do every day Yeah I travel with the packets and everything Which ones you take in? I have liquid IV Yeah I take those pouches with me everywhere Yeah I take those two And I also take them, I have a big one before bed I fill up like a big canton You have to get up to piston mill tonight?

7:23Yes But it's annoying not too too much I mean I don't do it like right before bed but like I have an evening one Because I remember even from like high school football in Florida that they would go if you're cramping It's too late to start Like you start taking a look It's not going to help you then It's all about like the prep for it Right So like you That day before you exert yourself electrolyte boost is what's going to help you more So I was trying to do it like at night too That makes sense Keeping a steady state in your body Yeah Yeah it should be something that you take every day But the big thing dude like I never I never hated I wasn't one of those people was like I hate the gym or I hate working out It really is being consistent with food too That's a big thing Yeah Like I didn't realize how much I Well I knew I was eating poorly a lot I was just like I had no sense of like portion control What turned it around?

8:20Was it those contests? Was it the weight loss contest? I guess it's a little bit of everything I think actually getting severely injured And like just being like first of all I think hearing people being like Oh you really got to fall apart now Like now that you're you've been injured you're going to be a mess You're going to gain like a hundred pounds Like people would say that Who said that you burnt? Actually his wife His wife said it dude Jesus Christ But she was just like in the moment saying it But she wasn't even one You're going to gain a hundred pounds She was like you're going to get real fat You're going to be fatter than my husband We're going to make fun of you That's impossible So but it wasn't even just that you know It was like other people too Other people like oh yeah I mean I would see it Like when I open up Twitter or something This dude's about to be a fucking whale Like you know like wow Yeah because they saw you like well you're laying in a bed Right So I think that kind of started it And then what happened was my PT was you know we were doing all the rehab stuff And she was the one who was like Are people telling you you're going to like get like way out of shape She goes yeah she goes you know it's going to be the opposite right And I was like what?

9:30She was you're going to be like the best shape of your life And I was like why?

show with us And then he didn't want to do it yeah you know he just like he likes the party Hey the party's great but I think he party during October when we had sober October and I still think he had a great fucking time I saw his shows looks like he was killing it yeah you know I mean it doesn't Doesn't make it more of a party to get fucked up every night it's just unsustainable That's what I worry about you know and when we first did the sober October thing That was part of the discussion we're all like hey Bert drinks too much Yeah like what let's say and I smoke too much weed let's let's try to work this out Yeah Yeah turns out smoking too much weed is like way better for you I think it is he's on a bender right now too on this tour he's sure Well he looks like a moon pie a moon pie with a beard he's so swollen he's so swollen This reminds me of that Joey Diaz line where I go you seem Bernie goes oh he's so fat I thought he was a Chinese guy I swallowing so many good time though he is happy for him too I'm happy for you know the movie and these are Linus That festival is a huge success watching him you know do he shows and these arenas and seeing these crowds my wow Yeah it's pretty wild it's pretty wild it is pretty wild you know when you go back to him taking that chance And leaving the travel channel yeah it was a big it was a big risk on his part actually because that's the equivalent of Because we all new comics like this and it was it's a it's just a reality of what it is when you're When you start working as a comedian and you're you have like your circle of friends there's this a number of them who like as you start to do road gigs And these are low paying unless you're not ticket seller you're just doing these gigs and you're like are you gonna do you know some of these gigs And they're like now like I have this job and and the job provides the you know the consistency and the comfort It's it's reliable they're like I'll get my paycheck yeah and then what happens is You doing these love like they're making more money than you right cuz you're doing like the bullshit comic But then like your comedy starts to get better cuz you're doing stand up all the time and then you get more opportunities And then they're they go like hey I want to do that but like five years have gone by right and you're like yeah but you've been in this day job Yes right and then all of a sudden you know you're getting opportunities to do TV specials or like they want you to just grab their hand Yeah, yeah, and then they go with you on the road what happened you're like well you didn't take the leap Yeah, and Bert kind of had that comfort of that TV show yeah it's a good check it's not like it's not a bullshit check It's a great it's a good TV yeah but when when he decided not I got to go make a full leap that was that's a that's a leap You know that's that's a leap and then it paid off obviously you tremendously yeah, you know the story I called him up and he was on the motorcycle I didn't know yeah, I was like you got to quit that job yeah yeah, yeah, but I was right I was like you can't just first of all It's just not healthy for you or your family fee to be gone three four months at a time no no it's crazy And I know you're working and you got to do what you got to do but it can't let's suck it for you Yeah, and also you're just you're not reaching your potential as a stand -up your hilarious guy yeah great on podcasts totally That's where you should be focusing your energy But back when he first got on that show podcasts were bullshit like when he first told the machine story on my podcast For the fuck is watching it no one's watching it no yeah podcasts were bullshit.

15:28So it was like me saying go do a podcast like what the fuck yeah I have kids I know talking about this isn't a job. I can't quit a TV job. Yeah, it sounds insane. Yeah, I Think I because I started to do big like bigger shows and selling out clubs back then too and he was like how is this happening? I was like you just I go I'm doing stand -up all the time I do this podcast every week I just got a special out at all that come around together And I was like you can do this too He's like I don't know And then and then he was like I then I remember him telling he's like I did it. I'm not doing the quit.

16:02I'm not doing the travel General amazing I'm gonna go for all in well worked out luckily yeah, yeah, I could go the other way too Yeah, but that thing about guys who don't take the leap I bet that's in every walk of life where people just don't But whatever it is when you're you're not all in but if you if that's the fucking the hunting thing about the comedy world If you're not all in and someone else is I remember when I was on fear factor so I was You know doing stand -up when I could but god damn it. I was working a lot. I was working a lot. It was just it was a lot hours And I remember I go to the store and I run into someone was a full -time comic and they're on the road Yeah, I just did West Palm.

16:45I was there Thursday Friday sound I was like oh yeah, that sounds so much better Sounds like so much more fun. Yeah, they don't take it to me. It was like doing stand -up seemed so much better It just seemed like a better life like that's that's what I'm it's more interesting You also have to have like when I look back at the choices I made early on in stand -up You know you actually are in a bit of denial about how bad you are not just how bad you are how bad your life is Like I mean I'm not living in a like all my friends with regular jobs have a Much better quality of life, but here's the thing it didn't even bother me really yeah because you wanted it so bad Yeah, I just wanted it so bad that you I'm saying you you have a bit of you have a delusion almost right like People see where you live right and they and they're like how much money are you making but you're used to it You're so used to it as long as you're used to it fine if you now one thing would be like safe You had some white collar job and you're making six figures a year and then you decided to go to stand up And then you were living in the place like you were living in when I met you then it was suck a fat dick Yeah, because you'd be like fuck now I'm falling apart.

18:04It's very difficult for people to downsize with the intention of Upsizing eventually. It's it's almost impossible. It's hard. Yeah, it's hot But if that you would be so much Up if you could kind of get by doing what you like to do and then you could eventually make more money doing that But the more money thing the most important thing is what are you are you doing what you want to do because we don't have much time We just don't I'm 55. I'll be 56 in a month That's 56 that's old as shit when I was a kid I thought 56 people eight year old people were archaic Rex yeah, we're could barely stand up, you know, you're you're in the doctors office every couple of weeks something's falling apart Oh, yeah, but look at you man.

18:49You're happy you're thriving luckily luckily I got lucky I hit the science and knowledge and you know fitness world yeah in vitamin supplementation hormone supplementation all of it came Right when I got old right? It's like re I just rode away So this stuff is just like the luck of timing right 100 % yeah 100 % well also our lives I think about this all the time if we were exactly the same guys We are now But we were at this age in like 1999 We're fucked. This is totally different life. Yeah, totally different life. Yeah, different life first of all No phones well 99 yet phones, but I mean imagine 1919 you're fucked.

19:34Oh, you're fucked life is terrible. Yeah, life shit. Yeah, I Mean we got we're as much as people could blade about today. We got it fucking super easy. Oh, yeah It's very nice. Well, it was 1919 and first of all when I broke my arm They just be like we're just gonna cut you all saw it off bite this leather strap. Yeah, that's what happened back then You broke things and they'd be like well, you're just a cripple. Yeah, you're a cripple now forever You could we'll give you this cane and this this This this wheelbarrow with like you can just lean on this wheelbarrow and kind of wheel that into town Do they start setting bones?

20:08I fuck what year was that when they'd stop hacking people's arms off? No, dude. It's not that long ago I've seen that video the guy who's playing the banjo and his arm is broken and he never got it fixed so his arm is like Floating around it's so crazy, dude like he he's got the Datch met but you need to bounce this guy look at this Never re -healed. No, and I still work stuff. Yeah, I still work You don't see that Look at this Wow, I have a thing about keeps them straight. You know saying that's amazing. Yeah, the muscles. Well, that's one word for it I mean Imagine our week that guy's an arm wrestling.

20:54I bet you could fuck him up I mean you can even open a jar of mayonnaise. Can you fucking what can you do with that? It's pretty incredible because you know that you know what's the thing is kind of interesting I had a double whammy right when I got injured. I tore my patella tendon right at the same time But teller tendon tear is not like MCL ACL it that leg is completely useless like there's no hinge anymore Right, so your knee doesn't you it just hangs right, right? So you have to reattach the tendon and for that to heal and be able to use it again It takes just just for it to heal takes about two months Then your muscle has atrophied completely like your quad is completely matrophied So you have to learn how to walk and learn how to do steps again and learn how to like you know It's a complete complete Like debilitating type of injury So when I got and they were at they're both at the same time.

21:47So when I got injured all the people in the hospital doctors, PT's they all looked at my arm They're like that's not gonna be a problem, right? And you think about you're like yeah You see people in casts all the time they're like you'll be fine with that That leg that's gonna be your your problem and it ended up being the opposite really All this is because of the nerve damage. I still have problems. Yeah, I still have nerve issues. Yeah, and I'm bad as an oh well You know an interesting thing. Remember we did so a braktober. Remember like I showed you me doing push ups with my shirt off So like my left rhomboid wasn't even firing Right, so what happens is when you when you have like a muscle a nerve Sends a signal to your muscle if there's nerve trouble going to that muscle the muscle just doesn't fire So when I was doing push ups because that wasn't firing you have other Muscles that compensate.

22:42That's the way your body works, right? So like if you're going like this and that rhomboid doesn't fire then like your lat starts to pick up for it Oh, right? So it's like and you're doing it like unbeknownst to your mind is just doing it on its own So I had like insane it took me like six months To recover from the hundred push ups a day Wow because I wasn't able to use like the full Strength of my body to do a normal push up. Is it firing now? It's firing now because I I Actually have been like treating I went to this place called wired and they put these. Oh, yeah, neuro muscular stimulation Yeah, yeah, that's really good that helped the electrical brother electrical muscular stimulation that EMS stuff is really good for injury recovery That that has helped me quite a bit But I still the thing that I have is like this great like weird.

23:29I don't how to even describe it arm pain When like if I try to like if we were to like if I was a jam you like this like hands It sends a incredibly painful signal through my arm especially like the bicep tendon mm -hmm things like that so I'm just always like I'm trying new things I do different things in the gym. I do treatments like that. I'm gonna get another Nerve analysis done where they send these signals through your arm. Have you done any hyperbaric chamber stuff? No, you should do that Yeah, I've heard that supposed to be very good with people with nerve issues. I'm gonna try it You know double the atmosphere.

24:05Yeah, it's a really just sit there, right? You can read a book. Yeah, yeah, I'll try that It's very relaxing. It's no big deal But it's funny though because you think oh broken arm just throw a cast on that thing and you'll be done No, and it's been yeah, it's been a couple of years. It's not completely here. That's crazy Yeah, yeah, injuries the one good thing about injuries is when you do get over them if you could remember Like because when you're injured you're like god damn it. Why wasn't I appreciating being healthy? Yeah, same way I feel when I'm sick Exactly. Yeah, well you said you know you asked me about like turning points.

24:41Mm -hmm. The other big one was that you know about a little over a year ago I realized that I was just regressing again and That was actually the big turning point for me. Mm -hmm. It was that I Had kind of recovered for the most part from the injuries and I was like, okay I'm like healthy again and I felt myself regressing again. Mm -hmm. I went to shoot this thing and I was like I Just saw myself. I was like, oh, I'm I'm going backwards again Mm -hmm. It bothered me. Is it food? I think it was it was food. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I just I kind of was like I can't go back again. Do that carnivore diet kills all that You know, just can't overeat you don't overeat It's wild.

25:29Are you doing that right now? Yeah, it's wild. I know when to stop eating. It's like a if I am eating Say like a steak and mashed potatoes and French fries and other stuff and bread bread and butter I'll just keep eating the mashed potato even after I'm done eating steak. Yeah, I'll keep eating fries I'll have another piece of bread and all that stuff is just empty calories. Yeah, it's carbohydrates It's not empty, but it's just it's unnecessary You're eating more than your body's gonna burn off and you're just it's just for me. It's gluttony What's a normal day for you're eating like what do you just breakfast today was a Neil guy steaks and bacon?

26:10So I cooked a couple of these small Neil guy steak Neil guys an antelope shot in Texas So I fried that and fried I fried bacon first and then I cooked the Neil guy and bacon fat Because you need fat Neil guys are very lean animal and if you're in you know a fat burning State which is a one I'm in right now. Yeah, you have to have some sort of fats So I like avocado oil Like some of that primal kitchen mayonnaise. It's made with avocado oil I'm not like avoiding vegetables per say but I'm 100 % I'm avoiding bread and pasta and all that other bullshit And just when I if I have like I'll have a piece of asparagus every now and then I'm be but I'm not like thinking about Vegetables I take a shit ton of vitamins.

26:55You take fruit. I take yeah, I eat fruit when I want to yeah But most of my meals are steak and eggs most of my meals most of my meals are steak steak steak bacon That's most of my meals and I feel fucking great. It's what's wild is joint pain Like I I've had a left knee that's been fuck with me forever and I don't feel anything now It's been two months on this diet two plus months now and it's like it just accelerated the healing You feel way better. I think I think when you're eating a lot of shit Your body is in a state of inflammation like all I think most people are in You know, there's there's a scale of like how much inflammation your body's carrying Yeah, and you don't think about inflammation just because it's just how you are And you're not eating anything crazy.

27:38I had spaghetti for dinner and I had a subway sandwich for lunch Yeah, I'm not eating McDonald's and you think you're not eating Information causing foods, but you are yeah, and you don't realize it until you cut those out of your diet so much sugar I think it's sugar, but I also think there's a lot going on with with wheat I think with the complex gluten and I mean and there could possibly be Something with glyphosate. There's there's a lot of people that's glyphosate is roundup That's that chemical that they spray on weeds that they found something like 94 % of people have it in their blood Yeah, you know and the Pesticide apologist will say oh it's just a small number.

28:18It's like that's hardly anything. Yeah, it's fucking poison Sure, it's 100 % cancer causing poison and 94 % of the people have it in their body Yeah, and by the way if in if they're measuring it and you're getting an average of what these people have in it Well, who's a what's the high end? Yeah, there's got to be some zeros too, right? There's got to be people all need organic and they don't have any in them So what's the high end like how bad off for those people that how about people that work? On a farm like what's there? You're just breathing that in. I'll say it's their fucking blood work look like yeah like what?

28:52You know there's a better way to do it and they don't want to do it the better way because it's more expensive and it's difficult You know like you do a regenerative farm But if you do it this way with roundup and they use it everywhere there's like That this stuff is fucking sketchy.

34:31They don't say they don't say we don't say a Cressante chocolate was a choclakteen. I said okay. Shokalteen. Yeah, but we were definitely tearing him up in Paris France is falling apart right now in that wild Is it a parrot the transit you was going on? We when I was there there was oh when I was there There was big riots. Did you see the riots from the the police killed a guy? No, I was there It was about the retirement age. Oh, this is way worse. This is way way worse This is the last few days. What is the issue? Somebody got murdered. There's been fucking gunfire in the streets lighting built businesses on fire for like five days It's been like the purge some of the videos are insane It is French teen shop by police officer pleads with riders to stop the violence so Something happened.

35:15I don't know the details of the story, but the police shot some guy during a riot No, oh, I think they shot him in eight was it a traffic stop? Tensions erupt in Paris suburb after a 17 year old delivery driver is killed in a police standoff. I don't know what happened He was shot and killed by police officer Tuesday in a Paris suburb according to the family's lawyer the death the death unleashed tensions between angry residents Setting barricades on fire and police firing tear gas police officer was detained on suspicion of manslaughter According to the prosecutor's office in the Paris suburb of Nantare Nantare Nantare It said the shooting took place during a traffic check the victim was wounded by a gunshot and died at the scene The prosecutor's office said in a statement a pastor in the car was briefly detained and released the police are searching for another passenger who fled so What was it that happened?

36:12Do we know what happened Okay, the lawyer cited a video reported to be of the incident circulating online that shows two police officers leaning into the driver side window Of a yellow car before the vehicle pulls away and one officer fires towards the driver The car is later seen crashed into a post nearby so they tried to take off and you shot them So is this what prompted these riots? Yes, okay? Yes, isn't that crazy with that description of what happened and the traffic stop seems so routine here like you all like there's an endless Series of videos that you can watch of something similar.

36:49Yes. That's always the feelings feels like it's very US. Yeah, like we always have Incidents in traffic stops sure, which are you know, I'm not saying blame is always one where the it's you know Sometimes it's the person in the car sometimes it's sure, but that just seems like a really routine thing here You know what people have to think about with cops and know it's very hard to do if you're not a cop But I want you to try you know that feeling that you get when you're driving on the highway There's a reason why people get road rage road rage rather this is reason why they get road rage Yeah, there is the reason why they get road rage and one of the the reason why they get road rage is is when you are on the road And you're driving you're in a heightened state because your car is going 60 miles an hour So you're ready at any time to hit the brakes to change lanes So you're in this heightened state and then when someone does something like you fucking idiot.

37:35Yeah, Jesus Christ Where you would never do that like it took me a while to realize this I forget where I read it and then when I read it was like duh because I was always like Alchem nobody treats people like that when they're walking yeah, no one ever does that No one gets in front of you when you're walking go the guy got in front of me It's not an issue at all, but in the car you're like I fucking asshole fucking put it shit fucking cut in front of me Yeah, that's what it is because you're at a heightened state now imagine being a cop and every time you pull someone over You are you we've all seen those videos of cops getting shot.

38:09Oh, yeah All seen those videos of cops pulling people over and then the windows explode and people fire on them We've all seen those they've seen them too. They know people who've been shot. Yeah, they have no idea who you are They have no idea what's going on. Yeah, so when they come up to that car. They are at a heightened state They have to be they are literally to a criminal. They're the professional enemy. Yeah, their job is to be the enemy of the criminal Yeah, it's a fucking crazy position to be in in society and we don't treat it with enough respect Yeah, and when the consequence when it when it goes badly All we think about is that officer and that's a representative of all police officers.

38:46It's not true It's true. I think a lot of people too. It's it's kind of heart like a lot of people they go into getting pulled over with a heightened sense of emotion themselves sure which if you are that person getting pulled over for whatever you got pulled over for that's your Like mentality in that moment you are actually going to escalate things you are as the person 100 % and and it does take an effort to go Okay, this guy like you said he's walking up here in a heightened state. Yeah, like I can diffuse things might I can diffuse them Yes, by how I conduct this yes, but some people you know the first you have the people that are like the legal scholars who want to lecture the police officer on on his right It's like yeah, you can do that man or there's the I have friends even I have friends who are like I hate cops cops are all pigs, you know like and I've I've watched them Speak to police officers in a way and I'm like Jesus Christ man.

39:52Yeah, like it's so disrespectful So stupid I go yeah, yeah, I go but you are making this worse right? That's a human being Yeah, yeah, like you don't know them. Yeah, you don't get on your knees, but you know just like He's doing his thing just like let's try to let's try to smooth this thing out Let's not try to make it worse try to make it better. Yeah exactly if I ever have an interaction with a cop It's always how you doing sir. Yeah, what's happening brother everything good? Yeah, I I want it smooth and easy completely Yeah, and just that whole that's what I fucking that those kind of generalizations all cops are pigs like fuck off No, it's not good fuck off.

40:30I don't like those generalizations with anything women are stupid. So fuck off fuck off No, it's just it's just annoying. No, you're like most women are stupid But if you go if you go into anything yeah like that you're gonna any interaction with the fucking with the retail worker or Fucking auto mechanic anything any interaction and sometimes I think if this comes with age So sometimes you do me to real pieces shit. Oh, yeah, like it can be a police officer It can be the mechanic it can be car salesman cars Fuck the car salesman flight attendant. Yeah, and I used to take I said I would say I call it take the bait more right feel the rage Be become like escalate things.

41:15Yeah, well, yeah, I'll be like I mean, I've said some regrettable things You know because but I mean like I think with age now something one of the things that happens is you go like I you know, I think this person sucks and internally And I go I'm just like I had a I had a flight where I've been on I don't know a million flights, right? And it was early morning cross -country flight and the flight attendant I was like She was like you want breakfast? I was like well, I'm gonna Zonk out here. So maybe Maybe when I wake up in a little while she goes now She was his breakfast now Whoa, and I looked at her and I was like Like that.

42:00I was just processing. I was like that's like it was super rude when did that change? pandemic Did they just fire a bunch of people that would have been there for a long time? I was a fire a bunch of new people in Pam less I have a real trigger too for like Disrespect or even perceived disrespect, you know where I I then become like I've and I was got arrested in airport One time for this, you know, I ended up calling the TSA agent a pig, but Again, that was a few years ago, but this was like this I looked at her and I was like and in my mind I was I could have said like escalated things and I just thought I go, you know what?

Read the full transcript

42:39This like I don't know why she's an asshole. I don't know what's going on. I just went yeah, I think I'm just gonna sleep I'm just gonna sleep. She's like, okay, I just walked away and she was like she was clearly rude and and like I'd never been spoken like most flight attendants when you go I'm gonna just go sleep she's like they're like yeah, I'll check on you later. See if you want to eat then like yeah We'll keep it warm for you. They're yeah, she was so rude, but I just was like Just why make this a thing, you know, I was just I go I'm just gonna sleep it might be hard to find people to do that No, yeah, you know, yeah Yeah, no they have huge the biggest issue in The in commercial air travel right now is staffing real it's still staffing really absolutely.

43:25It's still staffing It's it's why you're you're finding an incredible number of delays. It's not just staffing for airlines It's also staffing an air traffic control So all those all that is together if you fly commercially you'll notice that like I mean it is a miracle to Board and take off and land on time Almost everything is delayed It is delayed you have you have a lot of times your Everything is functioning well then you get there. I can't tell you like how many flights are just like Well, everyone's everything's ready to go and they're like yeah, the crews not here crews here This crew has to swap out they've maxed out their hours now we're waiting for a new crew This is like over and over and then it happens that air traffic control But they are not fully staffed either so this just is a huge delay thing.

44:13I mean commercial travel just needs to be revamped and well people to just doing a great job. Yeah, sure they're doing great. He's the best He's the best at it. Mm -hmm He's handling it. Don't worry. He's got it covered. Who's this people to judge? Oh, yeah, that's my guy What is he is he is he the the guy he's the guy in charge of Transportation that's fucking she's charge of the fucking trains flying off the rails You've done a terrible job So was it during COVID did people get fired and then they decided to do other things they never took the jobs again Some people got fired some some people I mean I think more people were even just let go like you know There's a lot of places like that had to shut down their operations They had no more revenue coming in right so you let people go and then you see what happened with what's what happened with a commercial real estate Commercial real estate is upside down in this country.

45:15There's a yes, you know why why because people don't want to go to offices Still anymore. Yeah, they won't do remote work. They want to do remote work. Thomas and jerk off so the people who if you have these big commercial buildings I mean they the used to be like this huge Asset to own this commercial real estate and now it's like a liability Because you have empty offices dude. You have empty offices all over the country and you can't fill them up You can't force people then there's companies that have just I know somebody that owns a company that said we he goes I like a lot of people goes I wanted people to come here and I want them in the office and he was met with like such Total resistance because I just realized I had to allow it like if if we were going to continue to operate Wow, so he he just gave into his employees going no We don't want to do that.

46:14Wow It's a sizable operation he has Wow, so people just say no in a work at home. Yeah, and they're like and I've been working and I'm effective and to a degree They are like in his case their career. He's like, you know, the work was getting done I just prefer to have everybody Operating the way we normally had but he was like everybody was like no I used to I had to I should do an hour and a half commute every day I don't want I didn't have done that now and tears. I don't want to do it again Hmm, and then he had to go like okay as long as they're disciplined and as long as they're actually effective I could see that I didn't get to stupid ass office.

46:50Yeah, what do we do at this place? Well, he's offices hence why This commercial state business is like in the shitter. Wow. I wonder what happens with that because it doesn't seem like that's gonna change But there are a lot of CEOs that are supposedly pushing back on all this stuff. I keep reading Yes, I think the interesting thing is you know how every like people always adapt right? Yeah, nothing just goes if something's losing money people don't just go well I guess we'll just lose money forever right so there is going to be a point and maybe it's happening now Where you're gonna start seeing something done with this commercial property like some like if if things stay vacant They're not just gonna hold on to that for 15 years.

47:32Yeah, they're gonna turn that into something I was reading some dib shit comedian on Twitter saying that they should turn all that into housing great for homeless people Yeah, that is very good if you don't own the building you fucking communist. Yeah, what are you talking about? I mean, I gotta say that also reminds me of this, you know And I know this will be unpopular for a lot of people to hear but the idea of forgiving Student loans. It's a fantastic theory But one thing that nobody considers who is a huge advocate of that is okay, so Somebody owns that debt That debt is owned So are you saying when you say forgive?

48:13Who are you saying will are you saying that the government will just pay all of that debt? Do you have an idea the amount of debt that that is somebody owns the debt? So you if you go forgive the debt to what degree like are you just saying erase it? It doesn't just disappear the debt is owned right so when you say just pay it who? Who are you saying will pay it in taxes? Right everybody's gonna pay it done right? So that just doesn't get erased is my point, but there is a bizarre issue with student loan debt That student loan debt is the only debt that you can't declare bankruptcy. Yeah, that part is that's crazy That's crazy crazy.

48:52That doesn't make any sense But when you say forgive it you it's not just like I think a lot of people say that and they go I just don't want to pay this Yeah, of course I understand that yeah, but you realize that somebody has to pay it That just it doesn't just go into the sky right somebody owns that debt. So who's gonna pay it? It's if you say that the the government will forgive student loans. I mean that amount has to be in like the trillions Wonder what it is. Let's find out. What's the collective student loan debt in the United States as a Point. Oh, there is a differentiation in this conversation that it's federal student loan debt not private student loan debt Which is a big difference?

49:31Okay That's that's companies that do on that debt versus like the government that Granted so this is just federal federal student loans pretty sure of that. Okay, so there's two different types of loan debt So I would I'd want to know What it is compared to the military industrial complex budget? Oh, yeah Right that budget is As a boy They accidentally paid an extra six billion to crane. They're like whoops. Whoopsie see this statement I don't know if this is differentiating that either says it's 1 .78 trillion in St. London a lot dude Who's the US that's more than people owe and any other type of debt in the US except for mortgages though The Biden administration is trying to forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan balances That's more than people owe on any other type of debt in the US well Except for mortgages, but I mean isn't like you see what I'm saying like if you if you just say hey forget erase is debt Okay, I mean I get it, but you do understand that that has to come from somewhere right?

50:33It's not just their good time here debt. Yeah, that is both that is federal and private to go Okay, so it's all of it 1 .75 trillion Click on that so we can see what it says there. It says on an average It says cost of college is steadily increased over the last 30 years that time frame tuition costs at Public four -year colleges grew from 4 ,160 dollars to 10 ,740 and from 19 ,362 38 ,070 it's crazy at private non -profit institutions adjusted for inflation all cost of risen So is the need for student loans and other forms of financial aid Imagine if you're a person that makes a hundred grand a year and your kid is going to school and it costs 38 And then your kid gets out and they get a 50 ,000.

51:18No, your job. You realize they're never gonna pay this back It's insane. It's what they're doing is like it is Says 92 % of all student debt are federal student loans. The remaining amount is private student loans. Okay, so it's a it's a trillion It's a trillion plus. Yeah, that's a lot dude. It's a lot and so how much have we spent on Ukraine and how much are we gonna spend on Ukraine? But here's the thing like if you forgave that debt wouldn't that spark the economy? Wouldn't like if people have more money than think about when people have more money people spend more money when people spend more money The economy does better if people are straddle with student loan debt I kind of think that's somehow another cripples the economy.

51:56I don't think you're wrong in theory about that I would it would seem that like you would obviously have more to do Yeah, you could do more with your money and it's not like you're giving people money You're just absolving them of debt. It's a real problem. The real problem is that the whole predatory student loan Situation. Yeah, that's that that's a real problem And it's also a real problem to saddle down a 17 year old with debt that they will keep for the rest of life And they hit you at that same time at the student union with your first credit card and they're like just use this Oh, and it's got 29 .9 % yeah You're like okay, you don't know what the fuck you're in you need to do it build your credit Yeah, I need to I got a credit.

52:32Yeah, yeah, and you're paying car you're paying 26 bucks a month for a coffee you bought Yeah, it's it's crazy. It is crazy. Yeah, it's the whole thing is insane But it's insane that we do it to kids because you know kids don't have a sense of the future They just don't they've only been alive for 18 years 18 years is not enough time to figure out how what kind of debt You're gonna be in when you're seven days. Don't you wonder to why why when we're in school and it's still not a thing When kids are in school we don't like really teach them about money Like you don't you don't learn shit about money.

53:08You don't shit in I'm saying at any level elementary school high school We don't learn shit about anything you need to manage life. No, you're basically learning How to say words and not form sense. You don't learn about yeah, you don't learn about money You don't learn about nutrition. No, nothing about that. You don't learn about thinking now I mean you know my kids could be saved from a lifetime of bullshit if you just explain to them why jealousy Why it affects them sure emotions? Yeah, explain that these are just natural human emotions that we evolved You have to learn how to conquer that and you learn how to prop you learned that like one of the most amazing It's it seems like it's something you should be taught in like middle school is feel feeling let them sit Yeah, when you feel jealous.

53:52Yeah, you're not you're not supposed to never feel jealous, right? But you learn to go okay, that's the feeling. Yeah, I'm feeling and this is why I feel jealous about it And guess what all feelings they they dissipate, but you it's they get worse They extend when you fight them when you resist you I don't want to feel it and you and you don't want to actually process the feeling and deal with it I mean having that understanding that all those emotions are natural to have It's like it really is something that could serve you so much better to learn younger I don't want to learn that at 40 right teach me that at 13 right, you know Yeah, it would make high school a lot easier to deal with yeah I mean, they should teach kids the value of exercise in terms of mental health the benefits that it has on that Nope, you have to figure that out on your own.

54:36Yeah, you figure that out through trial and error through your own life Totally, yeah, nobody's teaching unless you listen to podcasts. Nobody's teaching you that in school How to think no no one's teaching how to think and no one's teach no one who you admire Who lives a a good life is teaching you how they do it? Yeah, you know, that's that's another thing people are real stingy With you know their own yes personal success formulas. Oh, yeah Well, that's when you that's one of my big like the litmus test for a good person like what I go This is a cool motherfucker is people who are willing to share information Mm -hmm.

55:09It's a really like it's a gauge. Yeah, I'm a solid person. Yeah, is when you go like like how did you? How'd you build the studio? There's the person who goes It takes work. I had my guys. I'm like all right Right, that's them going like I'm not gonna tell you right that's mind exactly and then this person who's like Here's this card. Give him a call. He's awesome. It's like people who share information whatever it is Mm -hmm are the people who don't have that insecurity that like what if you have it then it's no longer mine right and by the way It's only good. It's good for the person like save it It's someone who does something you need a mechanic.

55:48I have the best fucking mechanic in Austin's guys is shit Yeah, I'll tell you about them all fucking you know, and then if you do that and then he gets work Yeah, and then he goes oh Joe says you're awesome. Oh, that's nice. It feels good. Isn't that amazing though? How how people so people are like no, that's my mechanic If I call if I give you him I need my fucking car work done first first. Yeah first Okay, it's such a so you gotta tell me if you're gonna bring your car because if I need my car work done I called first Yeah, it's gross. It's just famine famine mentality. Yeah, it's common in everything So stupid mindset But it also comes from being around groups of people to think that way Yeah, if you if you get fortunate enough to be around someone who doesn't think that I'm very fortunate in martial arts because in martial arts It's a very Maritocracy based thing where and it's also you need really good people to get good.

56:42Yeah, so everybody like cherishes and and also Respects and celebrates people that are really good. Yeah, cuz it's like it's good for everybody It is it's all that's good in comedy too, and you see someone killing you like damn go watch this guy watch this guy Yeah, fuck yeah, and then you get a juice get a little juice out of it Yeah, you if you look at it the right way. Yeah, you do watching great stand -up is like medicinal Mm -hmm. It is inspiring. Yes Yeah, it's make and it makes you go like I mean, I think I told you this that like when I was at the club and a tell was in town Mm -hmm It was just a great Remind not just watching him on stage, which was fantastic, but just hanging out with him.

57:20Yes, it just took me like it actually took me back to like Oh, yes like hanging out with somebody like this in the green room reminds you of all the things you love about Doing stand -up the green room at that club. Yeah, it's been the greatest thing that I've ever experienced Yeah, it's been great because I knew well first of all I knew the the setup was perfect because both Both rooms are right next to the green room is in the middle in the center It's literally you mean you can go from the green room onto the little stage in 30 seconds Yeah, and then you can go downstairs to get to the other one and you're watching on the monitors and you got the balcony Yeah, it's so centrally located.

Mm -hmm Just north of San Francisco San Francisco with Chappelle and like a lineup, you know like a festival style lineup Dude Tony Woods went up like fifth And did I don't know 20 minutes 18 20 minutes There's 22 ,000 people whoo And he got a standing ovation and the rest of us just looked at each other like oh shit I had to go ask where I was like fuck And he got off and I go what the fuck was that I mean standing ovation he goes it was a college set That's what it was like a set that he did it. He's a college set. I go the fuck man. What are you talking about the college?

1:00:34That's how to calm is but yeah also Shepelle fans know like real hardcore shiplle fans knows Yeah, that Dave was really inspired by Tony and he's been told to come under his wings. Yeah, Dave was like Yeah, a teenager and DC. Yeah, yeah, and they've been friends for decades Yeah, I'm so glad the internet sort of brought Tony Woods back in people's mind. Yeah, you guys don't know if if if you have not seen this guy Yeah, truly a masterful stand up masterful. Yeah, I know a thou ask God. Yeah, he's on the podcast Theroux Thursday Thursday. Yeah, so I like I he's a bit but it's the sweetest guy in the world man He probably the thing is he's probably done what I just described you so many times that if you brought it out to him He'd be like oh yeah, you know about that killing yeah, you know But it's that guy that has a total lack of promotion.

1:01:25He doesn't promote and he has zero promotion in him He doesn't promote anything. Yeah, unfortunately because the talent levels through the fucking roof He's one of the best comics on earth totally and I have 20 on earth I bet he could also is one of the guys who legitimately Like at your club if he wanted to could do like five different sets. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah Forever and he just he's got material and everything that's my theme park set Is that your new hour? That's from 96 Yeah, okay. Yeah, no, he's a murderer. Yeah, it's so good But you know, it's like that's the beautiful thing about this business is you will run into those guys that are Much more talented than they are popular Yeah, it's interesting and then you run into people that are much more popular than they are Yes, people that are really good at staying popular and that's a skill set That's when you realize along the longer you do this and I think that is only relevant in the internet age Yeah, age of this where like People there are people who always have that thing of like they know how to get people Talking about him.

1:02:38Yeah, and juice stuff about them And it becomes there it becomes like the thing that they actually worked on right? What have you been working on? They're like staying Popular right like in my promotions. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's a big thing What then you look at their stand -up and you go do you got to do that with that stuff? I remember I remember like an early version of this where this guy was like can you get me on Stage at this club And he had he had I kind of knew I didn't know him well. I probably should have listened to my own Inner dialogue about that, but I was like, you know, you feel the pressure when the person's right in front of you So I go All right, so the club owner is there and I go Can my friend do a spot?

1:03:28And they're like is he good and I'm like yeah So he goes up and he he pretty much just eats shit right and I was like fuck And so of course the club guys like the fuck was that right and I'm like, I don't know so I talked to him and I go dude You know he goes just if he'll let me do it another I said on the late show Yeah, I'll do a different set and I was like Yeah, so I go let him do a different set of the late show And the club owners like no Are you sure? I'm like yeah And here's the thing how many years in will you? A few not many not now and I go no no no and I go I go all right Here's the thing the reason I even brought this up is that the guy this is years ago Had like the best website I'd ever seen at the time I was like his website's fucking amazing And like all his marketing tools were incredible.

1:04:33Yeah, you know like he had like cool business card And like you went to his site and you were like shit looks like a locate yeah dude like his site looked like fucking Nike build, you know I was like this thing is fucking rad, you know And he goes up on the second the hit for his second set not only does he eat shit But he does the same set as like as the first Right and I go dude you did the same shit and he was just like Yeah, and I could see he was in the and I actually left I go All your shit is cool Your website on I go you got to work more on what you're doing on stage So like that's your priority.

1:05:10Don't you think though that that's like a distraction because they're not working on that other stuff 1000 % so they they concentrate on the promotion because they're distracting themselves in the fact They're not working on the difficult stuff and not only is that 100 % true But there's so many parallels in life to that sure we can all go like I'm working on this thing to avoid this thing Yes, and then you can and especially if you get good at the side thing And then people go like oh wow yeah, you're cooking really has gotten incredible Yes, you're just like not working on anything else, you know Yeah, it's very easy to do very easy and we can all trick ourselves Very very easy to trick yourself.

1:05:49Yeah, it's very easy to do Yeah, it's um would stand up. It's incredibly easy to be like I'm working on this other project though Right, and you can make excuses. I did that when I was on news radio for sure I was doing the same set for like two years. I wasn't a fix in anything. It kills you In turn killed me Just my ability I was I wasn't connected to the material anymore. I was just saying it You know and then I had one set in front of some producers and I bombed H it and then I really felt bad really felt because I knew why I H I just I knew I had a flat set which was not connected I wasn't and I knew I wasn't working on it I hadn't written anything in a long time and then I Bored down and I got way better like within six months.

1:06:39I was I was killing Doing all this new shit. I was completely re -invigory You know, I was also getting better sets to like the the set I bombed it was like one a .m. In the main room where you cannot be suck You have to grab those people and hang onto them. You have to agree they have to know you're good They've seen everything. It's one o 'clock in the morning or in Hollywood And I was you know going on after people that were way better than me. Just a shirt Yeah, you need those sets though. They're so good for you those fucking bombs It's like heartbreak too. You need those that sounds like a terrible counterintuitive thing to feel bad is good for you but You need perspective and it only the real perspective only comes the hard way disappointment Yeah, disappointment heartbreak like you failure heartbreak is a real good one.

1:07:33Yeah failure. Yeah, you fail Failure in a relationship failure in a friendship failure in a business venture Failure artistically failure athletically failure failure failure. Yeah, that shit right there Dude when you're saying the patellite that I had a patellite tendon graft on my left knee I got my ACL reconstructed and they took a slice of the patellite they were like don't worry about it The things really big. I was like now I'm thinking about I'm like how big is it? You know my step blows out because He was like 90 forget the 90s 3 % of Patellar tendon tears happen at a connection point In other words, you know, there's two points of connection either at the on the patellar or on the what is it the tibia?

1:08:19Might be correct. Yeah, he's like you're snapped in that middle He goes was just takes a tremendous amount of force Which makes sense when you think about how because I was leaping He's like he's leaping as hard as you can right and you retired and you'd fucked it up The couple of days before right I fucked it up earlier that day. Oh Jesus and so and he's like so it's a really weird like it's an unusual place to tear Injuries bro injuries. Yeah, I've had so many. Yeah, but you know what that's one another good thing about martial arts in jiu jitsu. It's like I understand like that there's stuff you have to do to make sure you don't get injured as often Like that's one of the reasons why I stay strong like I don't want to be weak when you're weak you get hurt You know in old people that's one of the major reasons why they fall down is just their feeble Yeah, you know, there's a there's an interesting video not a video of photography a series of Cross sections of people's anatomy done through MRI So they show a 70 year old sedentary person next to a 70 year old triathlete.

1:09:28It's wild They show a 40 year old sedentary person next to a 40 year old uh, triathlete. Yeah, and there's all these I mean obviously not saying you have to be a triathlete but just being strong Being strong enough to do stuff is so important the only way you get that way is lifting weights working out The only thing I keep preaching to my friends and my family's circle of people I'm around Especially guys guys and women. I want to make that point too women too is You have to have resistance weight resistance People get into their they when they hear that they keep thinking like tremendously heavy weight like oh I'm not gonna be a power lift and you're like no shit Yeah, like and you shouldn't even try to be just yeah, there it is look at the cross section So the top is the guy who has the um the workout schedule and it's all muscle and then the bottom is just mostly fat The same size leg and it's just this weak ass Bitch ass muscle around the fat.

1:10:29Yeah, when I see that I want to like kick him That bottom one just just You know you see too like to slam a shit into that When you're in the hotel gyms And sometimes you see these dudes of all ages, but I would say starting at like 40 into the 70s is the guy who walks it he walks in I'm kind of like the beginning of dropped head syndrome. Uh -huh like this and immediately You know This guy's going to the elliptical or treadmill Because that guy doesn't lift weights right no, but like and all you'd have to do like not all you have to do But if you want to avoid that path Weight training. Yeah start lifting weights.

1:11:07Yeah have some type of resistance training put your body under that stress your muscles and your skeletal structure under the stress Of picking up something and resisting build your muscle. Yeah, I have like this conversation with my cousins and my siblings and my friends all the time who I see on the path of like not touching weights Like dude, it's not gonna you're not gonna be fine just doing the elliptical right It's gonna deteriorate even guys that I know that do jujitsu Especially as they get into their 40s I was telling you're not working out you know other than training you're only doing jujitsu and like yeah, I got to At least once a week you should be lifting weights at least once a week She really should be doing it a little bit every day.

1:11:51Yeah, but the key is a little every day That's the povletot saline method You know, I think If you can if you're doing something else like jujitsu you really you can get by With a couple of workouts in the morning and a couple of workouts in the afternoon where you're not even killing yourself You're just like doing some kettlebells doing some chin -ups doing some push -ups But you're making your body do these things even if you do only one set of chin -ups You do ten chin -ups do 20 dips do 20 push -ups do 20 body weights or just do that just do that just do that Just that that's weight. It's your physical weight your body weight Yeah, you know, and if you can get some kettlebells get some kettlebells and do you know 10 clean presses each side It's not a lot.

1:12:32It'll take you two minutes do it in the morning do it tonight do it twice If you do that all the time your body just to get it's accustomed to doing that all the time And then you develop tissue that protects your joints and your tendons get stronger and then you know You have the ability to do stuff. Yeah, but you could tell I mean like those scans are wild obviously They're seeing the real thing. Yeah, but when I see just Like regular dudes that are older and you see the guy that is active Yeah, man, it really blows you away just the way that they stand yeah, they stand a different way Yeah, man, their shoulders are back and you go oh man this guy.

1:13:12Yeah, this guy's been active for 40 years Yeah, and the guy that is fucking walking down the hole like this. I always find those dads I was find those dads that like when I have these parent -teacher things. I'm like that guy less weights. Yeah, hey buddy Yeah, yeah I met this jack through the other day I was like your my new friend left out the 40 year old. It looks the same. Yeah, the 40 -year -old triathlete I was trying to explain that but that was just yeah, it's basically the same same amount of muscle tissue That's incredible. Yeah Well, was that a parent -teacher thing? Yeah, super jack guy t -shirt shorts.

1:13:48I was like look at you buddy. Yeah, we're hanging in there That's cool. Yeah, that's the thing though is you actually you start to be drawn to people like that. Oh, yeah I know that guy's fucking put in the work Yeah, like a guy who can be that fit at 55 years old. I'm like see him. All right It's a winner. Yeah, I can hang out with that guy. I want to hang out that winner winner Winner. Yeah, that guy knows how to do it if you're still you haven't quit now Yeah, and you know you're driving a Porsche so you have money.

1:14:16That's my buddy. Yeah Yeah, I just you you know You cannot do it. You don't have to but if you want if you want you'll have to be better It's one of those things. It has to be done. Yeah, and you guys like who are in their 50s are just gonna You're gonna be the guys that in your 60s and 70s people go like you're fucking 65.

To that looks so good I'd like Anything fried now just ruined me And I don't think I another thing I absolutely loved is a fried chicken sandwich. You know what I really miss Fried chicken and waffles at Roscoe. Oh, Roscoe's come on man LA staple yeah with the hot sauce on the chicken and the maple syrup on the waffles and the butter Slice it up. Hope you don't get shot. Eat it all Look at that. Oh man. Oh That food is so good. It's so good.

I was like this is it's such a classic LA place. Yeah, was it on union Well, there's one that was near us What I say us when we had sunset and gower. Yeah, that's right. He's radio was right down his tree. So we used to get it for lunch there This the shit And yet it's one of those things the first time you hear it you're like what do you talk about? Why would you make chicken with waffle? That doesn't even make sense and you sit there and you eat it But it's also like the perfect chicken like they're your chickens off the charts.

1:22:25Yeah, fried chicken But it's also it's like that recipe. They got it down. They've been doing it forever You know exactly how to serve you of roscos fried chicken. Yeah, you eat it like oh This is what I was waiting for yeah, and then the sugar And the fucking butter. Yeah Oh, and then you dip the chicken in the And then you And it was hot sauce too. Fuck it. Let's go I need naps right after the naps. Yeah, you're insulin crashes. You're your whole body. It's all done. You're sugar crashes What are you doing? What is this and then you think though that there's people eat like that every day. Yeah.

1:23:03I remember one time I had a A double cheeseburger with fries and a large milkshake because like a large milkshake and by the time I finished a large milkshake Literally felt like I got poisoned yeah, I was like oh Felt terrible. Of course. It was not worth it. Yeah, there's no it's the wildest trick your body does to you is to especially with like a big heavy sugar meal Yeah, your your body tricks you and I think it's good while you're doing it does It's totally a trick you know that when you eat the capacity feeling Well, yeah, and you're like I feel sick. I think I ate like that every day for 15 years Yeah, that's my number one problem.

1:23:43Yeah, I was like, but I don't do that when I eat the carnivore diet Yeah, I don't do it. Yeah me has a high level of satiety I think is the word which means You feel safe? Yeah, you'd say shaded real real quickly You know when your body's out enough you like yeah, you've had enough. Yeah, yeah, it's good Then you just look over at that freezer like is there ice cream? You guys know ice cream Gotta earn that ice cream son ice cream is that is a Yeah, that's that's a hard one. Oh, yeah, I get a whole fucking pint of that shit. I'll get in there Yeah, I'll do the shit where like I see them, you know at the grocery store Yeah, and I I start grabbing and then all of a sudden like the next day Christine will be like are there six different I'm like, I don't know the kids are here that they might like I'm like talking about the kids are here the kids eat ice cream.

1:24:33Yeah, yeah Muse mint chocolate chip really I actually love chocolate chip not meant really yes, I like chocolate chip not meant to yeah, that's shit's my That is my absolute favorite. I remember The first time I got high with Eddie He took me to we went to basking robins and I had an ice cream sundae and I was like this is the greatest thing the world is ever invented a hot fudge Sunday I was like it was insane. Oh, it's it whatever the fuck marijuana does to your senses of like especially your sense of taste Yeah, it's insane. Oh, yeah, we used to in college. We used to get high out of our minds like like full -bong rips joints like just eyes bleeding like And then we would take We would take a blender put in like a whole tub of ice cream Milk and then scoops of peanut butter oh blend that up and it just felt like you were drinking peanut butter Oh, and when you're high, so and I would do it until I vomit I would drink them until I peed Because there's no alarm that goes off right goes stop you're like no, it's too you feel like a dog like an animal Just like yeah, if you leave a dog if around the food it wants it just eats until it's sick, you know Your body has to be so confused as to what form this food is taking too.

1:25:52Yeah, like if you're if you're having like a like a milk shake There's so much sugar and it's frozen and there's milk like what is this the fuck is this your body has no Reference like if your body's eating an apple like other is a very sweet apple, but it's an apple. I know what to do with this Your body's eating that it's like what the fuck is this what is this not yeah like an ice cold Coca -Cola Oh my god your body's like give me more of that what the fuck is that also that that everyone's we all know it that formula at McDonald's Why that's the best tasting coke and diet coke on the planet why they have it because what happens is when you when you're in establishment like a restaurant You get you know A formula like the the gun has a blend and there's definitely a different formula at the McDonald's Oh, there's been anything written about those yeah, oh interesting.

1:26:49I didn't know that oh it how go if you're dry by McDonald's You get a diet coke you'll be like what the fuck? Okay, typically restaurants get their soda syrups and plastic bags with Coca -Cola does something different from McDonald's The fast food chain gets their coke syrup delivered in stainless steel tanks According to the New York Times of material keeps the soda fresher and your tongue can taste the difference a thousand percent Right, but is it a more potent blend or is it just because it's in the tanks? I don't know but it does taste so much better. This says their filtration system is top tier It is simply wow there's all these articles about being some people would say both like Regular coke you'll all say and you're like oh man and Dioza's an article McDonald's does says there are many reasons the Coca -Cola tastes so great at McDonald's We simply follow the guidelines set by Coca -Cola and take steps to ensure that we serve a high quality fountain beverage Well, congratulations you do that.

1:27:43Yes, the water and Coca -Cola syrup are pre -chilled before entering our fountain dispensers with the ratio Serup set to allow for ice to melt oh so that it doesn't get watered down with the ice so they are making it stronger But does that smart? Isn't this tell you something though that how everything is in the details? I mean like yeah, this is something that probably a restaurant would be like Coca -Cola would say you should do this and they go Whatever right, you know like whatever. We'll just we'll just put it in the gun and and sent but I Believed that McDonald's Sticks to that because it is consistent and it is so much different tasting even what they said about their straws Yeah, so their straws are typically wider than the typical straw so you have a different amount coming Yeah, give it to me right my face hole you fucking fuck my mouth the coke Big old fat tube of it so fucking Extra -serpy because what are the ice melts?

1:28:35Yeah What's the the ice melts you know their ice is better there they're better. I say I have better. I have filtered water There you go By the way, we're not paid by McDonald's for this. No, I don't even eat that stuff But if I did it's filet fishes I can eat five of those fuck really I love filets of fishes. I don't even know what that is McDonald's has this thing to where there's a temperature Swing where it goes from being the best thing you can eat at that moment right this Unedible dog food right like you like throw this down. I was In California a few months ago, and I had a quarter pounder.

1:29:09It's actually quite a while ago 10 months ago And I had a quarter pounder for the first time and fucking forever But I was starving yeah, and I had to eat and I was headed to the airport and I was just pulling this drive through Yeah, I could get a quarter pounder Yeah, like I could taste the sugar in a quarter pounder. They're bread even is I think yeah It tastes like a pastry. Yeah, I was like this is interesting. It was very good. Yeah, I enjoyed it I really did I'm a quarter pounder fan Yeah, I don't know what they're doing, but it's it's fucking delicious That's the thing I think you really notice about certain foods when you stay away from them Mm -hmm is that when you reintroduce them you go oh, I didn't realize that I was this is this tastes way different Yeah, it's way different.

1:29:48I thought it was gonna taste like an in -and -out cheeseburger Yeah, like a cheeseburger like in -and -out is the gold standard for me for for fast food places That's the you can't fuck with it, but they have a stand and and five guys they have stand I mean in -and -out has high standards. Oh, yeah, but whether or not there they are For your palette you can't negate that they have high standards Some people hate their fries. I know. Can you hate their fries? You see them chop the potatoes in fact I just wish they didn't beef talo because they do in some bullshit seed oils That's what that's what they yeah, I'm sure what is it what is uh in -and -out use oil for their fries?

1:30:25Everybody uses like canola oil Which is basically industrial lubricant that stuff was invented the luba machines really Sunflower all same shit. Yeah, yeah, it's supposed to get that much sunflower oil in your body at one point in time. It's not normal But they definitely I've seen sounds healthy doesn't it? It does actually some sounds good. That shit's not healthy They watch them they're chopping the produce right there. Oh, yeah, right?

1:31:33I'd like to know how much what how many grimes of sugars in a quarter pounder? It's gotta be it. I'm telling you. It's gotta be from that bread too. It's gotta be from everything It seems like it's from the ketchup to it seems like the condiments had some sugar sugar content Yeah, just tasted like it had sugar on it like I'm real sensitive to that. So I eat them like whoo It was good though. I also love a chick -fil -a sandwich. What love a chick -fil -a? Yeah, I love your wife's joke about them She's so funny, man. Oh, she's so funny 10 grams 10 grams of sugar Eight of it's added. Those might be the bread.

1:32:11Mm -hmm. Okay, so it's too natural and eight added so it must be eight grams of sugar in the bread Yeah, yeah, that's in a quarter pounder. Yeah, that's kind of a lot Yeah, like a really sugary drink like ketchup Mm -hmm. Yeah, that's what I was saying to have felt like the ketchup was kind of sweet So it's probably the bun and the ketchup good though. So good It's a good move to put that eight grams in there. Yeah, it's so fucking good. It makes it more delicious If you're only looking for something delicious, you've heard of McDonald's secret menu. No, I have some weird shit on here like this The land sea and air burger Fish filet chicken and burger Well, the difference is though.

Oh my god The Pepsi spice project Yeah, it's very funny We'd continues to add I like to stamp yesterday I'm afraid to have sex I keep thinking that my over -caffeinated sperm would blow a hole through the back of a girl's head It's just so stupid so stupid, but that's the funnest thing to do is a stupid bit That's red band.

1:35:05Yeah, it doesn't recognize the internet So you didn't buy Pepsi spice calm before you release Pepsi spice you fucking idiot Yeah, this back then companies didn't even care about websites. What's a website? We sell people still can like hose You see it on social media where they'll they'll grab a Twitter handle and the company hasn't Locked it down yet, right tweet like they're from that company Well people are tweeting like they're from Bud Light now because uh, you know There's there's Bud Light if you go Bud Light underscore so they're making these are like very subtle commercials They're like almost as like nothing goes with weeners like Bud Light Wow, you know, and it's like two hot dogs I didn't realize people like what is this is real The parody account and then there it is a parody.

1:35:50Yeah, but it's subtle. I didn't realize that that uh That like what's it called You know Them people abandoning it would be that true but like I know it's crazy It really has stuck and they there was a I saw an article about revenue Then like and and the the share that they have of the market and how it has totally taken a shift like 26 billion dollars That's crazy. Yeah, they really really did boy. I was looking for they were boycotting it. Yeah, and then The trans movement got mad that they didn't support Dylan Mulvaney So a lot of like LBGTQ and whatever the other letters are those bars stop carrying Bud Light So it's because they felt like Bud Light didn't back them up and then there was video footage of them sponsoring a pride parade So it's like a Bud Light Parade Truck with a bunch of people dancing around like we like to fuck guys too, and I'm a girl Yeah, I like to fuck girls like it's whatever it is.

1:36:59It's like they're like dancing around inside this yeah So the now they're advertising in front of the pride people and so then the people are like Fucking doubling down. It's like they can't win. No, so the pride people are mad How weird is it that when you say pride? Yeah people immediately think of gay pride means gay. How wild is that yeah, that they did that Yeah, they own like that's it's came for laska's has brown pride tattooed on his chest Yeah, now people like what do you try to say he's gay brown? What's that what do you try to say? You know, it used to be you were proud Right now it's gay.

1:37:37It's meant it definitely means why I'm here pride month queer month. I'm at imagine you don't even have to say gay pride anymore. Yeah, you say pride month How insidious they snuck it in they slowly took over pride like they took over the rainbow. It's yeah rainbows are That is It's so funny to think that university Hawaii used to have rainbows on their helmets can't have anymore Well, that also I too beautiful. I think the football team was like can we get something? Like it was not even related to gay. They're like shouldn't we be the tiger? Yeah, it's like give us and they finally changed it.

1:38:07What do they know? Well, I forget what the but they they put out like a more badass design on the helmets But for years it was a rainbow You know because it was like Hawaii, you know supposed to be in there like come on man We're supposed to be out to yeah, that was on the side of a helmet now. It's the at like on the bottom It's like that age, you know, they're not crazy though. The the rainbow has become I mean it's a it's a gay Rainbow's a gay thing. It was a gay. Yeah, I mean, that's what it is now pride. It's a gay thing The word is like we say you have straight pride people like really. Yeah, of course.

1:38:40Do you really? Do you really yeah, you should first of all why? Yeah, you're 99 % of the people proud to be proud of Yeah, fuck you proud of like they had a pride pride a straight pride parade And I was like if I wasn't gay guy trying to fuck a guy in the closet. That's where I would go Tell it tell it go that straight pride pray and see who's yelling the loudest. Let me see who I can get over here. Yeah You want to argue This is such a weird time man such a weird time because unfortunately because of social media now Anything that you do you can you can form an identity around it and then it can be like your identity In terms of like your source of like how you view yourself in the world You no longer view yourself in the world as just a human being That's just accepted for whatever you're interested in now you're in like a very specific category or group And then there's other people in that group and you you think there's people that are opposed you and there are people that are post them Yeah, so then then you're in conflict now you're a part of a gang You know, it's gonna go after those people that are against us fuck them It's wild.

1:39:54Yeah, it's costing too big. Zosting Exhausting and people want to fight they want to argue about shit. Don't you just feel like the I mean like I don't I get such mental Fatigue from a lot of this stuff I just feel like I'm an observer and I Kind of put it to the side and go I just I can't you can't entertain and ingest every one of these things going on well That's the if you're a conspiracy theorist. Yeah, this is this is the real conspiracy the conspiracy is Have as many social problems as possible to distract people get distracted by the people concentrate on whether it's A pandemic whether it's masks vaccines Pride Transmovement drag show sponsor drag shows for kids if you want people to get mad and want people to get distracted right right Sponsored focus on that get get people to think that it's a good idea to do that and watch watch the outrage You know get people to think that the oceans are gonna be boiling in five years You know, right get get people to think that if we don't change like that was one of the things that Greta Thurnebrook said five years ago That will all be dead okay?

1:41:03It's five years later, and we're not all dead So you're definitely wrong and you're 16 so why they flying you out to Ukraine like what's going on So there's these so many of these fucking social distractions that are in our face all day long about everything And I feel like sometimes that's what I feel like about Supreme Court rulings We're gonna take away Roe v Wade and never say what the fuck what yeah what and that's another one And then that one becomes a thing that people Identify as the most important problem that they have to solve and while all this is going on Money's getting moved around decisions are getting made yeah, and it's a brilliant cover for wild shit Yeah, because all you have to do ever really is a is follow the money on anything Yeah, you see what's actually happening and everything else is a distraction to that brother I've been following this hundred Biden shit.

1:41:53You see the new he was smoking crack wise driving 175 miles an hour to Vegas in a Porsche Yeah, but to be fair it was a turbo s and those are thrilling to drive oh yeah I can imagine it's probably easy to get 175 and that fucking car easy. Those are amazing. That's a rocket ship. It really is That is a rocket ship. Those are incredible and the way that thing handles oh my goodness You get behind the turbo ass and tell me you don't want to hit 175. Yeah, especially if there's like no one there Not only that if there's hookers at the end of it and you're on crack Yeah, and he's smoking crack while he's driving 175 wow now he really has substantial issues.

1:42:31I mean with because I'm saying I or he's lived the dream. Yeah, what's the dream? What's the dream if you're a fucking total degenerate? What's the dream? Smoking crack getting hookers Driving fastest fuck and making millions of dollars through illegal activity because your dad's rich 175 But also this fucking thing of like he's always filmed doing this. This is always himself. That's what I'm saying self -imposed So then he posted it? No, no, no, I think they found it, but who knows what's real anymore? That's another problem like any Video you see today going through so he's going through the desert doing uh -huh.

1:43:08Yeah, but a lot of people do do that No, I know people it's a famous place where people driving fast that's booking though. That's different. Oh, yeah I've hit a hundred and and a little over 175 is 175 isn't saying things are coming so quick really moving man I mean what's the top end of that car? It's probably 200 yeah probably like a little over that 175 is so fast It's scussed wife enough hast lane how reckless hunter Biden photographed himself driving And he's photographing it while he's going 172 While behind the wheel of his Porsche and route to long days Days long Vegas bender with prostitutes and pictured himself smoking crack while behind the wheel Wow, oh, so it was back in 20 2018, but he just oh It was just a few years ago Damn it was years ago.

1:43:57Look at him Imagine partying with that dude. I almost had a chance to get that guy on the podcast really yeah And they reached out when his memoir was coming out, but then all the shit hit the fan about him I was like, yeah, I'm not really interested and then I started reading all the stuff Oh my god, he's insane. Yeah, that's crazy Yeah, look at that hot Well, he's driving in a residential neighborhood smoking crack Well, he's in a residential neighborhood and that's nope that's no turbo. So that's is that What is that? Oh, that's a turbo us No, I meant like if the odometer was if that one is I don't I think that's a different car.

1:44:31Yeah Yeah, yeah, look at it's a wall. It's not a manic too But it says manual Cm Hmm, it might have a Yeah, he's in D and then maybe who fucking is it do they Yeah, because they let you like ride it over power ship. Yeah But I don't know if that's the same car. I don't know if it is either oh In different area coats. Why would you film it because he's having a party? That's true when he's an old man He wants to look back. Yeah, I didn't go to Bohemian Grove But you know what I did I smoke street crack with hookers and Vietnam Oh, there's a Tells the prostitute he had a laptop stolen. Oh, no And then he's talking to her while he's recording it well that too was off the charts out of his mind Yeah crackle crack is I mean he was out of his mind I mean he was basically like Ray Leodah looking for helicopters all day long I talked to one time about to Dr.

1:45:29Drew because you know he's worked with so many like drug users about the different drugs Right and like how they can affect your About affect your brain and he said that there's certain drugs that most people most could like do try and and basically You can try it and you might be able to just Be like I did that and go on with your life right right and not have an addiction I'm of course he's not saying to do that right saying that's possible But he said the the one That has the highest probability To switch something in most people's brains where the chemical composition It's like a light switch hits where you'll never be the same Is crack he said crack People that are completely fine trying this and trying that he said that's the that's the one where you can do it And just everything forever your brain has changed and will be in the basically in the pursuit of crack The next sober October we should do do crack we should smoke crack before and see October like right before it's he who cannot smoke crack through the whole month of October Real challenge I don't think it would norm in city smoke crack once city hated it but but that's but what Drew was saying is that all but no no wait a minute norm And eight crack because it was Molly remember Remember yeah, someone gave him crack and he thought it was Molly really and so he just ate it was girlfriend at the Louvre in Paris at the Louvre in Paris with it the Eiffel Tower or the Louvre one of them places they're in Paris So he's having a tear is like hey, we're gonna have a good time Take this Molly.

1:47:15I got off a fucking stranger. It's crack. Fuck. I'm like Norman. Why are you doing drugs off of strangers? Yeah Yeah, but then he ate it and are we trying to give me some acid once off of stranger? No I'm gonna have some of this acid you want some I go you're gonna give me acid from a stranger I go do you know how that story turns out?

I missed out on the best time Yeah, he wasn't a giggle fast. He did cry a bunch. He did. Yeah Cry did how amazing the Roger Waters show was yeah, but he was he was on I know He was so good. You know they waters were so good. They do oh yeah, oh it's so good and then we all hung out afterwards Yeah, that's so I was so jealous like oh you texted me like that day or the day before Roger Waters is my homie no, I know I know what I wanted to go all it's I wanted to go I was like you asked me to and I was like out of town And I was like fuck I would love to do that.

Yeah, first time I made out with a girl when I was 13. I heard comfortable numb And yeah I know Oh my god, what a band what a band what a fucking artist he is and Like a guy who's like a really well thought out guy really well -versed in international affairs Yeah, he's he's definitely not just Sputious booting spouting page not that old rich Guy who like is detached just famous now. He's not that guy at all. He's a real artist.

1:49:16You play pool too Kenny. Yeah, like he plays good. Yeah, he plays good. Yeah, he wanted to play Oh really? He's like yeah, I'll play you some pool come on. Let's play pool. I was like you play pool He's like I play very good. I was like no fucking way I was like holy shit Roger Waters can play some pool. He knows how to move the rock Is he have a set up table at the show? Isn't it? Yeah, but I got a fucking did the problem with this table out here Is like if you don't know what that is it's a it's a it's like a gimmick table almost. Oh, it's it's a super type Pro table yours. Yeah, mine has four inch pockets So like if you're like used to regular pool tables.

1:49:52What do they have five five and a half? Oh, yeah in a bar. Yeah, yeah These are four like so it's for like yeah, yeah, yeah And that's those things is cut. It's like It's like the perfect. It's like it's a gold crown. You still do it a lot. Don't worry. I'm not the chunky I'm a junk. Oh you are I don't know if it's got a problem. I didn't realize it. Yeah, two of my security guys are good Oh really? Yeah, yeah, we play hard Nice. Yeah Yeah, I don't know we could be battle Yeah, we have good yeah, I'm getting better. I'm probably better playing better now than I've ever played really Yeah, did you start like start like getting into it into it?

1:50:32Well, I tore my ACL when I was like 22 and That's when I first started playing pool. Okay, because I couldn't do martial arts anymore. It was fucked up for a while And then I got a surgery. Yeah, I had to get surgery, but I didn't get surgery for like it was a while Maybe more than six months and then Then there's a long rehab the ACL reconstruction was a long rehab for me Um, but I but I wasn't doing martial arts at the time at all So all I was doing was going to the gym like I went to like a regular, you know, fitness gym And I just lift some weights do the stair machine You know, it was rehabbed in my knee all by myself and then you know, because I kind of knew what to do Just doing mostly body weight squats and slowly building up my ability and being smart about it and then During the time I got obsessed with pool.

1:51:20I just fucking obsessed my buddy my worked at a pool hall yet a part -time job at a pool Sky was a my comic friend John And so we used to play all the time we both kind of sucked, you know, it was fun Just talking shit laughing playing and we'd do gigs together and stuff And then I started meeting really good players and then I started playing all the time And then I started then I had a real problem to the point my manager goes I think you're spending more time thinking about pool than you are about comedy You're like, I was like fuck you right. Yeah, I knew it was right I knew it was Rex. I was playing in tournaments like several times a week.

1:51:51Wow. Yeah. Oh, I was a problem realizing it. I was playing eight hours a day eight hours a day Wow, I never knew this about you every day Every day if the pool was a legitimate profession at the time like back then it was very hard to make a living And then there's this camel tour and it wound up being a shit show and a lot of people didn't get the money 100 % if I could have been a professional pool player. I was obsessed. I loved it You know why because the balls don't give a fuck They don't give a fuck who's watching they don't give a fuck how cool you are They don't give a fuck what your dress like they don't give a fuck if somebody likes you If you make that shot you make that shot and And to keep your nerves together and navigate around the table was a puzzle to me I was fascinated by it because it's just this This you're in tune with these balls colliding with these other balls and trying to find the proper angle and plotting out the table in advance to get the good angle in the next ball to get the good angle in the next ball Is this obsessive like you?

1:52:57Did you get into trick shots and all that too? Nope, couldn't give a fuck Get out of here with that shit. I don't want to learn it. I don't care. It doesn't mean just about like yeah I'm in the table if you get a trick shot and you got to kill yourself if you don't make it then I'll watch Okay There's no consequences. There's no consequences of you Miss a trick shot. I don't give a fuck if you miss a trick shot. I don't give a fuck if you make it It's kind of cool to see someone has like a really powerful draw stroke And they can do these crazy trick shots, but you're talking about it's nonsense What you really want to see is people playing pool at the highest level when it's you have to do your nerve pull players consider Because I know there's multiple gain like I've played you know, yeah amateur obviously like hanging out But some people play what eight ball and like what's what's the standard Game called well.

1:53:46There's two main rotation games and there's one big gambling game Okay, the big gambling game is game called one pocket The reason why it's a big gambling game is because it's a very complicated game It's boring to watch Unless you're like a real fishing out of they can never put it on television and then what what one pocket is Is say if this is the pool table. Yeah, I have this pocket here on the right hand side You have this pocket here on the left hand side and I only can make balls in this one pocket You can only make balls in that pocket and so there's 15 balls. Yeah, there's 15 balls in a rack So when someone makes you know someone makes eight that means they've made more than half so they won the game And then to make candy caps like see if you and I were playing and you don't play as good as me I'd say okay, I have to make 10 balls.

1:54:31You only have to make five We'll do it something like that or I have to make 13 balls. You only have to make two damn Okay, people make crazy matches like that in that way and they've gambled for a lot of money I've seen one pocket games for thousands and thousands really yeah big money now that's that but that sounds like What like legit players play most people play most people play nine ball well and leagues a lot of people play eight ball Okay, like a lot of bar table eight ball. Yeah, which is a little complicated because bar table eight ball You have to have really good cue ball control because you're dealing with a lot of clusters So you have to know how to move the ball around right it seems easier because the you don't have long shots because the table small and it is It's easier for that But it's harder for position play because you have very small room for error Yeah, and so you develop a real good sense of where the cue ball is going A lot of bar table players have a real solid cue ball And then there is tournament play and tournament play is generally you usually either eight ball or nine ball rather and ten ball for the pros So it's a rotation game nine ball.

1:55:34I've familiar with nine ball the balls are wild right So nine ball you you break you make the nine ball in the break. That's a game you won You make a one nine combination you win ten ball never ever no balls are wild So unless you play it wild there's different ways people can play but generally speaking It's call shot you have to call every shot you make So the one if you're making a one five combination you call the five ball combo shit you can no bullshit You can you can get lucky occasionally in the way you get lucky to say if you call that corner pocket and You miss but it bounces off the rail hits the other rail and comes back in that corner pocket still counts still counts It's a fluke you got the luckiest of lucky But only because you actually called the pocket.

1:56:17I got you really shouldn't even count then you should really say how you do it But that's how it works. Yeah, and then there's games where you play the ten ball counts in the break and that's a win But most of times they don't you also tend to spot it you have more I realize this like I've realized this over time But even now like you have more obsessions than most people I know I think Yeah, I got a lot of them like but like lich like a lot of people Have none or maybe like one but like you are kind of obsessed with a number of things Yeah, I could get obsessed with anything. Yeah, I think good But I mean like you're kind of obsessed with stand -up.

1:56:53You've definitely been obsessed with your gits who kind of obsessed with archery Yeah, I just came from the archery shop. Yeah, that's a lot. I mean, it's a lot of different. Yeah disciplines that you're Or you know things that you're trying to master. I'm mentally ill. Yeah fitness But I'm mentally ill in a very productive way. That's true. It's it's not a mental illness where it wrecks my life It enhances my life. Yeah, but it's just I know how to like focus. It's like It's like like it's saying it's like saying I have a 900 horsepower engine That's why I keep crashing all the time. Yeah, like no, you need to know how to handle 900 horsepower If you know how to handle 900 horsepower in your race car driver then you have a massive advantage Yeah, because you have all this horsepower.

1:57:33Yeah, you you could fucking go that's me It's just like I just have to find things to put that in if I'm just like sitting around doing nothing My brain just starts plotting chaos I just start thinking dark things. I just start plotting scenarios. It's not good. I don't I can't I don't trust my brain to be by itself You know, it's like it's just it's why for me. It's easier to like when I say Just fucking work out. Just go do it. You'll feel better I know it's easier for me to say that. Yeah, it's easier for me to say that because I'm crazy Because I I have to do it. I know I have to do it I go out there and I do whatever I have to do and then I can manage all that other stuff But if I don't I can get locked into something like whilst playing pool for eight hours a day Or I used to get into video games like that or I'd play video games or a jujitsu The thing about jujitsu is you can't really do it all day long your body breaks down Yeah, I did as much as I could but your body starts to break down What's a good session for like couple hours couple hours couple hours?

1:58:32Yeah, you know You do like an hour of drills and then you probably roll for an hour. Yeah But yeah more than that your body's about you're so beat an hour of Trying to stop people from strangling you and breaking your arm and fucking ripping your neck off your head It's fucking exhaust that's real work. It's exhausting. Yeah, you get so tired That's why jujitsu people are so chill. Yeah, they get it all out there. They don't have nothing you meet them in real life They're like hi Yeah There's no like no bravado Chest puffiness. They're just fucking chilled out. Yeah, I might I mean like the bit of of boxing stuff I've done to this completely exhausting thing.

1:59:09Same thing. Yeah, same thing you meet a boxer in real life They're generally pretty fucking chilled out. Yeah, especially one it's training all the time. Yeah There's nothing for me Quite like hitting it bag for for a workout that um puts me in a great state of mind. Yeah, like a great mood Doing rounds on a bag What by the time I'm done I feel so good. It gets everything out smiley. I'm all happy. Yeah, yeah It's just it's just it just drains all that monkey energy out of my body Drinks all that caveman out and when you hit like clean like clean combos At the end you're like oh, I can Yeah, it's good.

1:59:53It's a good feeling. I like going ham. Yeah, yeah, it's fun What are you doing the kicks too? Yeah, yeah Finally I can do them again my knees back Took forever That's another thing that happened with this fucking diet. It's like Whatever weird joint pains. I was having just went away I just have occasional joint pain in my right knee to gone. Don't feel it at all not at all same workouts same stuff It's I think I was carrying around a bunch of inflammation just for meeting I mean mostly clean Mostly clean You know, but I'll eat four cheeseburgers one night or mostly clean. I'll have a fucking large bowl spaghetti Mostly clean but every now and then I'll go off the rails to not going off the rails at all remember one day I just felt like shit and I just decided what was the time I felt really good physically It was like there's a time that I did that carnivore diet.

2:00:44Yeah, so I'm like let me do that again The thing that's most astonishing to me is the mental benefits of it when your brain is running on ketones It's a different feeling.

I had I had something with them Like a year or two ago. This is so insane. I'm gonna send this to you Jamie. Um, so we can Go over what it is that got them banned because It's so crazy. I can't even understand it. I don't even understand how this could possibly be real I'm gonna send it to you here So here is the There's a thing on Twitter he put it on Twitter now because that's really the only place you can put something like that If it gets pulled from YouTube, which is so they pulled the whole episode they pulled the whole episode for this for this clip So we're gonna watch this clip and this is it's really I just don't understand how someone could think that this this kind of censorship is Okay, because it's like they'll go through the if you go through the flagging process.

2:10:59I don't know Let's let's go he's it can't post for a week make go full screen In 2012 one of my Platform things was I will outlaw bullshit. Yeah, because you know, and I know that that horrified people because what will I do now? Right they're addicted to it. They'd rather have that than food or a happy family They're so addicted to the fucking bullshit. It's true, huh? But you know comics I think we're the last free speech art form and as long as we're performing things end as bad as they could be You know, I think that's true as long as we're performing things aren't as bad as it could be Yeah, and that's always been the case throughout time like with gestures or with people that we try and speak up and share There's always been a ceiling on on speech hasn't there in a way of course and nobody wants to hear the real truth They're horrified.

2:11:52I never had to go with bullshit. It's easier and Like for the real truth that you know, and I'm glad that they did set up all these guidelines so that we Only are allowed to speak the truth and the truth is that Biden got 81 million votes by winning 36 counties And that is just incredible it really really is and um that of these 81 million Supporters who gave him more more votes than any president has ever gotten before he came with a mandate from these 81 million voters and You know, I'm just glad that they Were very careful to make sure that nobody could um Detract from that Proven truth, you know, I mean like you what do you mean like that nobody feels like that?

2:12:43Yeah That they mandated that that was the truth and that nobody could say well, what about no? Oh, it was made a mandate Yeah, oh, I didn't know that So the government made it a mandate yeah, because you know you two did and so did uh all the social you can't speak You can't even speak on that in those platforms. No, you can't say you know that it wasn't you can't say that like You know, the election was re -agreored. Yeah, that's all lied the election was not rigged 36 counties Can give you 81 million both right that's a fact So it wasn't rigged Of course not yeah 36 counties have 81 million people in See That's the truth and don't you dare say anything gangster you'll be off youtube facebook twitter and all the other ones because We have you know, there's such a thing as the truth and facts and we have to stick to it and um, you know It's scary and that is the truth and nobody died in the Holocaust either.

2:13:47That's the truth Yeah, it should happen Six million Jews should die right now because they cause all the problems in the world Never happened, but it never happened yeah mandated Well, you're She is 100 you're all Jewish 100 % and a lot of Hollywood is Jewish yeah, it's like a it's like A lot of Hollywood is a Jewish business really well they started Hollywood yeah, right But what so was it weird that like rap black people started rap. Yeah, so I went go over there and try to get and rap and go All these black people you know go on Saturday night live like Dave Chappelle I'm just saying a lot of black people are in control of rap right hello Well, you went there.

2:14:35Yeah, try to get in show business. Of course it's Jewish But you know and people should be glad that it's Jewish too because if Jews were not controlling Hollywood All you'd have was fucking fishing shows Yeah That's a lot So that that's kind of a for that yeah that got them pulled The episode pulled and he can't post for a week and it's a strike against his account And it's all based on the actual Holocaust line for sure It has to be yes, but she's she's Jewish. She is she is. It's obvious. She's Jewish. She's always been Jewish It's also obvious if you're listening that when she says yeah, but the holocaust and it like that made Jews should die And that she said it after she said this thing where she's clearly Poking fun at Biden saying but by the way, I think you can make 81 million if you win Those counties.

2:15:28I don't know the math. I don't know the math somebody is that Real like what is a how many counties that Biden went does it that math? Look if you don't think that people voted for Biden because they hated Trump and that 81 million people hated Trump You're not paying attention. Yes, it's it's like I don't know if there was some shenanigans with the election I guarantee you it wasn't 0 % yeah, I give you said like how much voter fraud was it? It's never zero But it but it's never zero. That's the price ever. It's it's never zero but it's also in I mean if you do all the research that you can the valid studies and the reports even from like Hardcore pro Republican counties It's it's like fractional voter fraud people like to right It's probably zealots that work inside the organization.

2:16:17Yeah, that Figured out away to like all this county's got us. What's hiding now? It's not substantial It was a lot a very small amount of counties. I don't know about 36 being accurate Okay, so with over 81 million votes Biden received the most votes of any presidential candidate in history is also true that he won A record low number of counties, but counties vary by population size from those with a few hundred people to those to others with millions of residents So current county wins don't correlate with popular vote Right, but if you only win 30 if you have 81 million votes and 31 counties how many 36 counties?

2:16:57That's what she was saying and this it says that he won 477 counties in Trump won 2000 Oh, so he won 477. Yeah, that's a lot more than 31. It's different than what she's okay So why would she say that she probably got just that information right? versus 25 oh, so you won 509 Yeah counties. That's a lot of counties that makes sense look I know people that voted for Biden that wish they didn't know yeah, but I do know a lot of people voted for Biden I don't know whether or not It's like look there's some real problems with these voting machines I mean the other thing that that article is saying right there that you're looking at instead that Trump won like 2400 counties right so it's substantially higher number of counties But he's also winning a lot of those counties in like rural areas.

2:17:45Yeah, like they were saying yeah But there was a thing that they just released about the deviant dominion voting system that it's a susceptible to being hacked What was that see if you can find that There's something something that just got released about the dominion system I tell you about when we got one uh by the way you two Struck you guys for what we had a guest on this is like on Old podcast. This is like a couple years ago and the guest. I think it was Derek Delgado I think that's how you say his name. I don't want to get it wrong But he was telling me about growing up and um How he was getting taunted?

2:18:21Mm -hmm. That school. This is like a serious conversation And he's like yeah, you know getting bullied at school kids are calling me a thag blah blah, but Took the episode down hate speech. Wow But he's telling the story about being bullied Georgia won't update vulnerable dominion software until after 2024 election So yeah, that was it. There's something about the software being vulnerable. This is on CNN Georgia election officials have been aware of existing vulnerabilities in the states voting software for more than two years But continue to insist the system is safe and won't be updated until after 2024 According to a report that was unsealed this week as part of a controversial court case in Georgia The reports findings folks on weaknesses in software for certain dominion voting machines Those weaknesses were previously verified by federal cyber security officials who urged election officials across the country To update their systems a lawyer for Georgia's top election official Republican secretary of state Brad Raffin spurger Recently told a federal court that officials would forego installing dominion security patches until after the 2024 presidential election Why The election officials Georgia election officials insist that is highly unlikely that the vulnerabilities will be exploited in real attacks Well, when you have fucking right about it on CNN doesn't that make it more likely?

2:19:43I mean yet why are you sharing this Upgrading the system would be a massive undertaking and our election officials are evaluating the scope of and time required for the project Mike Hassinger a spokesperson for the Georgia Secretary of State's office told CNN when asked about the delay So they might do it and also we're spending this time evaluating right it's extremely unlikely that any bad actor will be able to exploit our voting systems in the real world The system is secure. Oh, well if you say so April sterling a top election official in the Georgia secretary of state's office Said an oppressed release from early this month Adding that safeguards are already in place to mitigate these hypothetical scenarios from happening Well, I'll sleep like a baby now.

2:20:20Yeah, Georgia's fine Yeah, man They're people right in the same kind of fucking people that don't put their Serup in the chilled container. Yeah, and don't have an extra big straw Yeah, those fucking people they work for jack in the box. That's right. You know, you get that bullshit I'm gonna you'll reference this article when something does happen Yeah, and is the system is exploiting and they'll go well we weren't aware Well, that's the first that I've even heard of them even like sharing How vulnerable their system is I've never heard that the systems are vulnerable because they're electronic.

2:20:55Yeah, you know And like I would imagine like all systems Yeah, yeah, it's a computer system people get in but that was a big thing with the Republicans This is Republican too, right? It's a Republican. Yeah, but that was a big thing with the Republicans back when W was president because there was people that thought that John Kerry should have won Remember that that was the the dangling chads remember that shit. Yeah dangling chads was was it carried and then George W Wasn't it yeah, I think it was him and Gore Was it maybe it was a slightly different thing than the chat? Yeah, I think it was Gore voting machines in Ohio.

2:21:31I think there's a giant book with tons of data about this that I've found Way since and after the fact, but it was too it was like too late. They were like sorry. It's too late. Everything's already happened Okay, look at this in 2006. Oh, let's go back down At 2006 Ohio became the poster child for bad election administration when two lengthy reports examining say that word Kaya Hoga counties election procedures uncovered multiple serious problems The county lost 812 voter access cards that allowed a voter to cast about on machines It also lost 313 keys to the memory card compartments where the votes are stored on the machines.

2:22:10Oh Jesus Christ And pick up the memory cards that contain the votes. Wow the hard taxi drivers They hire taxi drivers to drive to election precincts and pick up the memory cards that contain the votes taxi drivers cracked out taxi drivers Clayville I have a county's cleaver so So there was a there was a documentary that HBO had on called hacking democracy and it was about the die -bold machines Do you remember the die -bold machines? I remember that name. I don't remember when that was die -bold is a company that made voter machines I think they made ATMs too because I remember seeing an ATM machine and thinking about that that documentary But there was they showed in the documentary that the machines were Exploitable by a third party and that there was a third party access Hmm, it's like a third party could alter the vote and they altered the vote on the machine on the show On the show on the show how they did it But we didn't have like widespread abuse of this in the last election I mean I've from everything that I've read and seen that like There's not it's not the reported that this is even from like I'm saying from Republican counties It's not something that I've heard where it's compelling enough to me to say that I know that that's what happened Yeah, U .S.

2:23:26finds no evidence Flaws and Dominion voting machines were ever exploited Well, they're really good at exploiting it. Would you know that you got exploited? And if you were exploited would you tell everybody they're exploited and Trump should have actually won When that guy's been screaming like a maniac for four years. Yeah, he sure has stole my election. They stole my election Yeah, it was a rigged election It what even if it wasn't rigged he's still saying it but even if it wasn't rigged let's say it wasn't rigged let's say It was a fair and and That's who won and that's how it was gonna be Biden one For sure it was rigged by the media For sure just the hunter Biden laptop case and the Russia collusion case just those two things yeah Just those two narratives that they knew were not true that they pushed out In front of everybody and that we know Yeah, you know had to do with trying to get rid of Trump that was a big that's that that is Overreporting and one underreported.

2:24:23Yeah. Yeah. That is in many ways that's That's an attempt to manipulation. It's manipulation of a public narrative It's a manipulation of what the people think is real and not real everybody thought he was in collusion with Russia It's what everybody thought it's what they were there was just All these mainstream meet except Fox news There were the only ones there were the ones that weren't pushing it everybody was else was pushing it Yeah, it was sold hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was and it was not true And it's proven to be not true and then there's the Hundred Biden laptop thing which they they knew was true and they said wasn't true And they told you that you they they stopped people from sharing it on social media They stopped people from sharing on Twitter Zuckerberg sat in that very chair and said that the FBI contacted Facebook And told them that it was Russian disinformation.

2:25:09They were getting a bunch of Russian disinformation So they limited the Spread of that. I don't know how they did it. I don't know exactly what they did to limit the distribution of that that are FBI is involved in that wild chick dude wild To wild shit and no one cares no one's up in arms. No one's freaking out because that is a way that you're gonna rig an election without rigging an election Yeah, whether whether you like that guy or not we have to follow the rules We have to and if we don't follow the rules because you don't like somebody and we break the law because we we don't like somebody We don't want them to win Now this has been added a republic shit.

2:25:45Yeah, that's not cool That's scary and the fact that they were willing to do that and that there's no oversight And no one can stop them for doing that and then there's no punishment for them doing that This speaks to like how much he's despised by this He's spoke. I mean, it's really fucked up. He fucked up Well, he was I mean you remember there was a time where Chuck Schumer was on one of those shows Talking about stupid it is to attack the intelligence community Mm -hmm. He was openly saying it like they have 18 ways of Sunday to get you. Yeah, yeah, and Guess what? That's they did, you know, and but the fact that they did it like It's not good because it's the same thing that I feel about like the censorship thing with social media If someone is spreading some sort of fake information on purpose to hurt other people that's one thing But if someone is just saying something that you don't like them to say or something that's disputed or something that Seems to not be agreed upon by certain people But then there are also experts in the field that do agree You've got to let people talk that through because if you don't and you silence debate and turns out you were wrong Like the hundred -biden laptop story or like russian if you were wrong and you were ruining people's social media channels ruining people's youtube channels ruining public discourse changing the way people think about something Well, you have responsibility not do that again.

2:27:13Sure now you know you did that and this is why that is dangerous censorship is always dangerous and then when they censor and they It's like undeniable usually just get like a lower third Yeah, sorry whoops. We didn't mean to do that. We fucked up. Yeah. Yeah. I mean It's it's gross. It's gross and they don't understand that it's undermined something that is already a problem And that's public belief in mainstream media Public the general public has lost a tremendous amount of faith in the news And what they're saying and what's true and experts and all all sorts of things Yeah, and then it was all exaggerated greatly by the pandemic that blue have the people that were Just hardcore lefties are now like moving to Texas.

2:28:00Yeah people that were like I am getting out of here I'm this is fucking career. I see where the shows now and if this happened and people that are like Closet Republicans now to come up to me because I think I'm one You think tell me I'm running red. I'm like well, I don't want I just that's not what you have to do You just got to get good people. Yeah that that really actually do care And aren't bought and paid for and actually have a fucking a plan to unite people and not strengthen this one side to fight against the other side But bring everybody together sure make everybody realize our differences are so small in comparison to the things we have in common The things we want yeah, the things that will help everyone's life.

2:28:41Yeah, and then we have to think that way We have to think as a collective group. We have to think it as a community a lot of people just don't want to think that somebody can have differing points of view about a range of topics. Yep, so they go like oh if you are Pro -gun that means you must be pro all these other things right right and you're like that and that everybody really falls into that No people have all different types of points of views about it can be about any number of things like I can be like Fiskely, you know like how the government should spend money It could be about your civil rights.

2:29:13It can be yeah, it could be guns and abortion But those are that's not what defines people. No, it shouldn't but it does because there's these predetermined Patterns of thinking and ideas that people adopt when they join an ideology Whether they join a progressive ideology or a conservative ideology Yeah, in order to be in the group you have to espouse a certain amount of things and I see people say when they might not even believe it Oh, that's the big one. Yeah, that's the one that actually is kind of the most disheartening Yeah, is when you talk to somebody you can see it in person and they say and they're just saying the right thing Yep, like this is this is in this is what my group says to say and yeah, you can just look them in the eyes Like you don't even believe what you're saying right now.

2:29:53Yeah, the real one with me is Republicans and gay rights the the people that are anti gay rights that are Republican. Yeah, they think that all gay people are groomers And I'm like, you know some people are just people who love people of the same sex. Yeah, that that is always what makes them come That's the only thing about that Well, and they're in love. No, but I'm saying wait when you go like what's at the foundation of this? It's that what arouses somebody is just different than what arouses you that's it Yeah, and they've existed throughout history. Yeah, the idea that there's something wrong with that just because you don't like it Yeah, that to me is nuts from the people that are supposed to be about personal choice and freedom Yeah, that's what drives me nuts.

2:30:34You don't think that like somebody else deserves to Yeah, being loved with who they love. Well, just imagine if and coming super hard inside of them Yeah, I'm not but imagine if it was the gay thing that you had to do and heterosexuality was rare Yeah, and heterosexuality is like look at these fucking losers. Yeah, breeding. What are you gonna have a baby? You fucking idiots? Yeah, like oh my god like, you know, that would be horrible. Yeah, that's exactly what it's like if it is that's the difference Now it's crazy that we're even having that conversation but they feel like they have to have that Some some people especially if they want to Attract the religious people the very like devout Christians.

2:31:13Yeah, there's a lot of people that feel like they're still hanging on to take Yeah, is the dumbest stance ever. It really is it just doesn't make any sense It should be did everybody in every community should be judged on an individual basis Shouldn't say oh the the straight people do this the gays do that like that's stupid Yeah, that's stupid and to say you don't want them to have the same rights that you have That's bananas. Yeah, that that even exists. It's crazy You want to still be in this cast. Yeah, the people are talking about rescinding gay marriage Now that they got rid of Roe v. Way they're talking about getting like what you got your fucking mind?

2:31:47What does that get you? I think it's one of those things like we're talking about before like if you were conspiracy theorists You want people to be upset about things? It's one more social interaction It's a giant distraction and now you're not paying attention to things that matter. It's a giant distraction And anybody that wants to argue that they should be forced to argue with someone who makes this rational Sort of argument against it. It's stupid. It's stupid from a perspective of someone who values freedom The if we know gay people we know a lot of gay people. They love it. Yeah, they love cock They love it.

2:32:20They can't want to get a fat cock in their mouth. Well, how can I they're delicious?

I don't think so Really yeah any grace and he gives out his full address and phone number in post like full deep like here's my full address Here's my phone number just come over and he's trying to get raped. Yeah. Oh, he Literally asks for it. Oh, that's he ever hear about the drug called re -equip Re -equip re -equip is a drug that was a Parkinson's medication and this guy was this guy won a court case against I believe it was Galaxosmith Klein Because he took this stuff. He was a normal heterosexual guy. He took this stuff became a gay sex and gambling addict He was having all these craze.

2:34:13It's a I think it's called the dopamine agonist I think that's what the change like his brain chemistry It did something to him where he could not stop gambling and sucking cock And he was picking up guys off a Craigslist and he was having like in prop two meetings and he got raped by two different guys Sounds like a great excuse to try something else out. That's what I'm saying But apparently um, this is not unheard of so much so that he actually won in court So you can find yeah, see if you find the court case. I have the court case. I was trying to find the wording of what he Yeah, so this guy just couldn't stop gambling He was off the fucking rails with gambling and just wanted to fuck guys and meet guys and like chance crazy dangerous encounters He's into danger and it was all because his brain chemistry Something happened when he was a Parkinson's patient.

2:35:02Yeah, he was a Parkinson's patient. Holy shit Yeah, so it's got a little shaky hand next you know he's sucking cock and playing bingo He just fucking fell all in Jesus Christ All in man, it feels like a loving husband to claim Parkinson's drug turned him into a gay sex addict wins $160 ,000 compensation in French court But he's French. Yeah, you ever know Said turn him into a gambler and sex addict who sold his children's toys for cash his wife who stood by him without throughout rather Was with him as he wept with relief in court after the ruling. I imagine a fucking Drug does that to a Parkinson's sufferers want a six figure payout against a drug giant after his medication turned him into a gay sex and gambling He's by the way not a lot of money 160 grand to get 100 loads.

2:35:50Yeah, how many do you get within two years of taking the drug re -equip? He was so addicted to both his vices He sold his children's toys to raise money and advertise himself on the internet for sex He's now be given 160 ,000 dollars in damages after a court in how do you say that? Ren Ren Prince Ren France upheld his claims Wild that is is that him I think that's him right there. Yeah, that's the guy look at oh my god What a look of regret. Yeah, look at that guy's face. He's like Jesus Christ come taste bad Fuck did you make me do I'm a poor guy. Jesus Oh Okay, what does it say about the drug itself?

2:36:35Are they increased the damages? Yeah, okay, hold on a second the court increased the level of damage to 197 ,000 four to sixty eight dollars and eighty three set eighty three euros After finding out there was serious precise and corroborated evidence to blame his transformation on re -equip wow Yeah, it's been a seven -year battle with our limited means In fact that GSK lied to us and shattered our lives What does it say about the drug? Scroll down is this anything about the drug or how the drug does that? I would want to know how it does that What is that stuff? It looks like he's thinking oh my god It says in total he gambled the way a total of 82 ,000 euros so he's still only made 80 grand Mostly placing internet bets on horse races and engaged in frantic search for gay sex frantic He began exhibiting himself on the internet websites and arranging encounters one of which results in him being Raped I thought he was raped twice.

2:37:29He says once he said his family had not understood what was going on at first But his behavior turned to normal when he stumbled upon a website that made the link between re -equip and addictions in 2005 and he stopped taking the drug he said my life was hell It still is because you cannot forget a catastrophe like that look at his face. That's how you can't fake that no I was gonna say if you're gay curious you can blame it on re -equip You can get your hands on some it said the court had heard warnings that re -equip side effects had been made public in 2006 Mr Jambert said the GSK should have informed patients earlier He can conceded that re -equip was a good medicine and offered undeniable solutions to be with Parkinson's disease Hmm Okay during the trial galaxial Smith's clients said it had serious doubts the mr Jambert had developed his addictions after taking the drug Hmm I would have serious doubt it too if I thought something core for seven years But I mean for the court to agree.

2:38:28Is this another one? Well, so that article is from 2012 I guess what happened. This is like a more update from 2015. But this is Pfizer This is Pfizer settles lawsuits. Do they own galaxial Smith's client? I don't know. This could be a similar drug or something different. That's why I was kind of I didn't click this one first. It's okay. It says Pfizer settles lawsuits tying sex and gambling addictions to dopamine meds Class action litigation brought by patients who claimed drug maker did not adequately warn them and the side effects of drugs You were taking to treat their Parkinson's disease or restless legs syndrome While this kind of litigation is routine the side effects were not said patients are told were said the drugs created addictions They didn't previously have patients said rather the drugs created addictions They didn't previously have causing them to gamble with their life savings or become obsessed with shopping or sex Holy shit.

2:39:17So this is definitely triggering. Yeah The confidential settlement with 172 patients said to be for millions of dollars was approved by a judge and federal court in Australia The financial review reports although payments were delayed until they assessed by they were assessed by an independent review Pfizer had degree to the settlement late last year And the head of the trial cases brought by people who took Pfizer's Cam Kaba saw cabbasa and dosed an ex between 1996 and 2010 Treat tremors associated with Parkinson's disease or RLS That makes sense if you got a neural lot. Yeah, dopamine agonist the drug drugs work by providing dopamine agonist that imitate the effects of dopamine in the brain something Parkinson's patients lack wow a study published last year in JAMA internal medicine found that the Psychiatric side effects of uncontrollable urges were not as rare as first believed Have found the occurred in at least 10 % of patients But said they probably were under reported because patients were ashamed to talk about what they had done How that makes sense.

2:40:23Yeah, that makes sense. So terrifying Mm -hmm. Okay. Yeah Labels and dopamine agonist class that includes re -equip re -equip from glaxosmith client UCB's new new pro new pro and Mara pecs from Boinger in gellheim Goringer ingleheim boringer ingleheim the German company was sued by a New York man some years back who said the taking the drug It turned them into a pathological gambler Who ruined him as he gambled away three million dollars fuck wow Wow Wow, I never hear about I'd never heard about that. That's so that's like Gambley Gattics or wild to be around man you saw uncut jams right yeah, I'm selling movie.

2:41:12Yeah, he was great in that right great movie though But what a great movie to like show what those people are like. Yeah, you've ever been around one of those people I've talked to a couple and they um Yeah, they just talk about the The impossible to quit drawing It's just I know one that's like It's it is substantial sports. I know a sports guy and I know A blackjack guy oh Yeah, how bad Unbelievable does he have money? Not anymore. Oh boy Millions Millions Tana White's a generic gambler. Yeah, he gets kicked out of casinos for win into my memory I saw a video about it. Yeah, I have some of the casinos are like uh -uh The one thing I've learned is I liked Is that funny that they can do that?

2:41:59Yeah, they go you're too good at this That's it. You know the other thing is fucking hilarious about like I we did some blackjack on tour and we in different casinos all over the place It's like you put your money down and it's like whoop give you your chips, right? And a couple times I came out ahead like had good good it's blackjack really I mean there are there's by the book But you realize you get good shoes, you know like a shoe is like what they pull the cards from You just get like you really do get good shoes and bad shoes like you're just every time You're just you're winning and then there's shoes where you're like every hand you lose right and it's not and you're playing by the book or maybe you're taking risk It's like that dealer keeps hitting 20 Right now or 21 but based on pulling out the cards and then there's times where it happens to you But these days where you come out ahead You know you win five grand seven you're like oh, that's great Then you go to cash out and they're like I had the casino's go where did you win this?

2:42:54I'm like what are you fucking talking about where did I win this here and they're like which where what game were you playing? I'm like blackjack Where I'm like fucking right over there hold on calling people You know verifying why did you win? Yeah, and then there go All right, hold on all right, you need to fill out now you need to fill out this information You gotta give them all your information. Give us your ID I mean you're sitting there 20 minutes later like am I gonna get this money and they're like yeah hold on Yeah And then another guy comes in the back and talks to them. They talk in private Okay, it's like it's like a it's like a 20 30 minute thing to get paid Then they give you your cash and then the funny thing is we notice this a couple times on when I would win We're all walking as a group back to the hotel and like a pit boss Cuts us off and they're like how you doing and you're like good.

2:43:42They're like do you want to come over here? And they're yeah, they're trying to get you to come right back right away. It's like you won and they don't want you to You know like well, we have this we can eat private table over here if you guys want to keep playing how much are we talking about? I mean less than 10 ,000 winning But like thousands right so yeah, but it's so it's not no it's not in Chris not in right affecting their bottom line But it's just like this whole thing if you go well, this first was just really hard to get paid I think this would be like a simple here's the chips your chips.

2:44:11This is not Vegas. No, this wasn't Vegas Yeah, I think that's the thing and then they go the gaze you can see knows out there and then they go like why don't you just keep playing Wow, okay I think I'm good for the day and they're like okay, well, you know just come back whenever you're ready if you want to come back really soon That'd be great wow They're trying to get you to stay they don't want that they don't want that loss. Yeah Yeah, no Vegas definitely also if you're a gambling junkie and someone comes up to you and you're like I'm gonna do this. I'm gonna get out of here with this money like one Yeah, the pull strong when I can go and then someone comes along goes watch play right here and you're like yeah, why don't I play right I want to bet it all on one fucking hand that fucking feeling too.

2:44:51It's funny how A couple times I went to the high limit room and I'd I'm still you know, this is not crazy numbers But I would put like you hundred down and you win you're like whoa you get that hit and then you double it You know, so then you kind of go Holding on to the guy next you like oh, and you win again Oh You see how if you're wired for that Yeah, that could be the crap stable. I don't understand crap But you're the life of the party if you're winning people money. They're having the they're having the best time It's fucking IBS Yeah, rolling lines. Let's go screaming cheering. Yeah, you got to know How is your game?

2:45:30You know where you know we're oh, yeah Get the fucking complicated the low ball and the high -y -oh and the you're like what what's happening? What is how did you learn this like this is a complicated game to get in on side all these little side bets within the bet? Yeah, there's the come line and then which is hilarious. I know Flery called a come line And then they go that's all you need to know but then you play with someone who knows and they're doing 10 other side How is it still called a come line First guy ever what does it mean? What does it mean? Lou is low there. What does it mean? Why is it the come find out?

2:46:02Why is it the come line? I think I've read this before and I don't I don't know I don't know what that means. It's probably like the Flintstones like gay old time. I know a different way of talking The come is a bet made by a player after the point is established by placing a wager and the come The wager will travel to the box number which is rolled next to win a come bet the number The that the wager travel to must roll a second time before a seven I think betting on point hitting again essentially, but I might have Boy I want to come or not. I'm too dumb for that game. I'm too dumb and disinterested.

2:46:41I know a guy won 60 grand doing that I'm just a fucking Saturday night. Do you know what he's doing? Yeah. How do you learn? I guess probably ADD would kick in if you were at a crap's lesson I would not remember any of it. I'd be like I think it's probably just rep it like over and over seen. Yeah, you start to go Okay, and then you get like the confidence to do that come bet But then those side bets is like really worth the problem with it too is like you're betting against the table A lot too because I think it hits if it's seven or eleven and that's crap So people don't even want to think about that a lot of times But some some times you'll find a rebel who comes up to the table and just throws a bunch of money on that come bet You're like, hey, what is this fucking guy doing?

2:47:21Yeah, and then it hits you're like, well He's not wrong, but fuck it's going against everybody else in the table. It is a silly amount of money though You can play a come bet only after a point is made on a come -out roll It's more complicated, but you don't have to place a pass line bet Okay, I saw in if the next rolls of seven or eleven or if the come point is repeated before a seven You lose if the next rolls a two three 12 or if a seven is rolled before the come point is repeated Right, I watch it explain on a YouTube video Like it was a YouTube before like a moron like here's how to play this game.

2:48:01Do it then at the end I would understand it Well at the end I was like I'm definitely not playing I was like this is way too fucking high one money and played for four and a half hours one night. Yeah I have no idea how I was winning money I want to go to match back for at the time for me. It was a ton. I was like I can go buy next box now like I'm so happy I just copied some guy that had way more money than everybody else in the table I was I'm doing whatever he does and hopefully I'll figure it out wow I never figured it out and I've lost a ton of money back thinking it's really fun time Is that the best game to play if you know what you're doing or is blackjack?

2:48:35Oh definitely craps really craps with higher end well craps Can the multiples I think are are much crazier much crazier you see the payouts and craps and they're they're fucking bananas Blackjack is just the best odds you have yeah blackjack is really You know there's strategies like I said there's playing by the book but You know there is just a real Luck Like it's not that much strategy involved to like flipping over and you 20 and the dealers like I gotta I mean it's just it's not knowing what's next which is so excited Yeah, yeah, this this thing is card. This might be it. This might be it Hit me.

2:49:15I found like if I do $20 bet there's just no rush Right, you know, I just go like cool, right I need to 100 and you're like yeah cool Hit to 500 then you start to go This is real money. Who's ten of these? Yeah, yeah, that's that's that's not too much. But then when you win that you're like Yeah, it's so stupid. It's so stupid. It's so stupid I remember when I used to do gigs in Connecticut. I went to this casino in Connecticut. It's like one of them fucking You know one of those weird casinos. It's very nice for where it is Yeah, and you're wandering around there. I'm like what paid for this.

2:49:51What paid for this? Yeah people like me Don't know what the fuck they're doing Banging on slot machines. I don't even know if they have slot machines in Connecticut There's some casinos like in California where you can only play certain games. Yeah, there's rules about that Yeah, a lot of rules but yeah poker casinos some of those things you go like Are you still make a lot of money playing poker? Are you still actually taking himself playing poker? Yes, that's skills That's a skill game. That's a skill game. And I know there's a lot of poker places in LA Yeah, you know, there's like the bicycle close underground games people.

2:50:24Oh, yeah, I know about a couple games where people play Real money. Yeah, Cowan knows some people who do that LA has a number of yeah Underground games and he said the crazy thing is like these guys will just gamble you into a corner Where you're talking about so much money you have to fold yeah like so much money. Yeah, like they'll just keep up and at and like he said There's games where people were gambling millions of dollars. That's fucking wow and they're real players. Yeah, scary Yeah, I'm staying away from that shit. I saw Philip was playing poker online the other night. Yeah, pretty good Is it good and yet and his wife they're both legit poker players in a tournament here I think there was like a leader in the pot or something When I was the pool Well, it was a pool player There was always like people players who like playing cards and pool players hated card players Because card games took away from action.

2:51:17Yeah, so gambling addicts didn't want to play pool because they wanted to play cards Want to play gin rummy? You know, and that takes away good gamble and that yeah, I got damn it. Yeah, you'd be mad watch a game break out If you took me right now, there's black side game. We could go play a good play right now. Yeah, yeah Yeah, be fun. Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna white one seven million dollars one night. What? He lost a million one night I mean that's when they pulled the UFC. What kind of hands is he playing for that who fucking knows? D when he's very rich, right? So for a guy like that like it's got to be juicy to get him excited.
