Yeah, you did You gotta stay limber for all the sitting we're doing I'm getting at the age now where I can't sit for too long, dude. Really? Yeah, that sucks. What do you mean? Yeah, just sitting. Just fucking bothers me. It bothers, yeah. You know, I do notice, I thought about this, like we're not supposed to just be sitting around. Like imagine, say you went in the woods, right? Yeah. And you saw all the animals are having fun. Yep. Right? They always are.
2:13Yeah. Most of them are. Some of them are beating, killing. There's some. Yeah, some of them. But eating is fun, though. Yeah, most of them are having fun. Yeah, there's violence. A lot of it's by the streams. And so you know kind of... That's fun. Yeah, it's fun if you're into that. Yeah, and I think most animals, and I'm also into water. But that's where things get violent is down there. Oh, shit. That's what I'm saying is, I think nature's a blast, right? Yeah. You see it, they're herding, the animals, the woodpecker comes down. He makes noise and people are like, get the fuck out of here. We want to sleep in.
2:47But you don't think for him that's kind of fun, though? It's just like, wake up, motherfucker. Yeah, he's obviously been using or whatever. He's one of the animals that got a hold of a bag somewhere. Absolutely. Who else is rolling up like that? Just so early, just slamming their head against a wall. Yeah, and then taking off. Yeah. Unless he's like Morse coding a message from the heavens or from like ACDC or something, you know. But, you know, I'm sure every animal, they all conjointively hate that MF-er. Conjointively, I think they are. when they see unless one person had to get up early for work and he's like guys i had to invite him yeah and this we all started we started to talk about this because of stretching we i'm just saying so stretching like is um oh you said sitting down yeah so i'm just saying yeah i don't know if we're supposed to be sitting down like say if you went into nature yeah and you saw a bunch of animals they were doing stuff scratching their backs on trees eating berries and tickling each other whatever and then there's one animal off to the side who's sitting in a chair and he's vaping or working on his computer yep you'd be like that Anna something's not right it's not he's gonna have some achy hips yeah because humans they weren't sitting back in the day that's what I'm saying I mean rocks they're they're not comfortable we have all these we've made all these comfy chairs get us all sloven yeah right so that's that's what I I live in Orange County so I drove up here to do this, among some other things.
4:18But I drove up here, and it took like an hour, 40 minutes. And then I get out of my car, and my hips are like... Yeah, my body starts to... The top starts to lean forward. My top half of my body will start to lean forward like that. Yeah. Well, you know, my body fell apart, dude. You know I was hit by a cementeric when I was a kid. Were you really? I was, dude. And how full was it? It was a full cementeric. No way. Even if it wasn't a full cement truck, that's still fucked up. But it was a full one, dude. Full one's really bad. It was, I think, 32 tons, something like that. Oh, my God. Yeah, dude.
4:55It hit me. I ran over the first, under the wheels, and then spit me out. I flew 500 feet, dude. You're lying. Mm-mm. Truths. Oh, my God. What's the longest field goal ever kicked? That's insane. Bring that up. Yeah. I mean, it has to be more than 500. No? Maybe not. How long is the 66 yards? So quick math, I think that's 1 ,000 feet. Quick math? No, what is that? 188. 188 feet. Oh, my God. So that's like more than double. Yeah. Wow. Oh, my God. Wow. What did you land in? I skidded up the street or down the street, however it goes. And I was hit in one county, and I landed in another county. Nuh-uh.
5:43Because the street was like the dividing line between the counties. Still count? Yes, still counts as a cool factoid. And is this the style you got hit by? What did you get hit by? Yeah, it was a similar style. Yeah, so I got taken under those wheels. Those Peterbilt's are nice, huh? Yeah, that's a solid truck. And what happened? Because I have a friend who got hit by a train, right? Not as funny. Oh, yeah, I agree. He was doing great. He was listening to, I think, a lot of more set or something, walking with his headphones on. Yeah. And he's like, isn't this ironic? Yeah. Yeah, well, don't you think?
6:18Well, because it's like, the craziest thing. Listening to my song getting hit by train. The craziest thing was he'd been listening also to train earlier. See, that would actually be ironic, yeah. But I think that joke only works if he had been listening to train earlier. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, we dialed that one in. Yeah, we did a good job. But yeah, you believe that they're noise canceling, And then you're like, no, they're not that noise canceling. He couldn't hear a train coming. That's wild. But it's effective is all I'm saying. Those heavens are effective. Yeah. So you're walking. Where are you when this happens?
6:55I was it was Omaha, Nebraska. And we were going across the street to get candy or whatever. And I mean, true facts were we were going to like we would steal pages out of Playboy or Penthouse magazines. And we were like, you know, 12, 11, 11. And so that was our move. We would go there. We'd rip. I don't know why we didn't just steal the magazine because the ripping sounds loud. It's way louder. But in little kid brain, I was like, it's not as bad if we only steal a few pages. That's fair. Like it's where we're going to get in less trouble if we get caught. Right. Like I got one page. I only got a couple of pages.
7:37I got like half a tit here, mom. It's still a magazine. It's just a magazine. You still have the rest. Yeah. Yeah. And they say they buy it for the articles, mom. So I left the articles. So we would do that. And so my one friend was across the street or my two friends were across the street. And they say, come on. And I took that as coast is clear. Coast wasn't clear, Theo. Oh. Yeah. Three Symmetrics are going up the hill as two are coming down. And I couldn't see the other side of the street. It was like suburbs or new houses were sprouting up all over. So three were coming up. Two were coming down.
8:13He yells, come on. I'm like, take his word for it. Walked out behind the third Symmetra. Boom. Bam. Hot damn. Did you even have a second to see it or he was just lights out? I don't remember it. This is all what people have told me. My friend could have thrown me in front of the Symmetra for all I know. But I don't think so. And Danny Hendricks did not try to murder me, I don't think. Danny? Yeah. Or Dan-ty? Or Dan-ty? Yeah. Sounds like he may have to me. Yeah, maybe. I don't know him. Maybe. I don't think so. He's a good guy. What does he do now? I mean, dude, I don't know what he does right now.
8:53Danny Hendricks, there he is. Wow, great job, dude. Staffing Ninja. Helps the medical labs locate and attract exceptional talent. So that's, you know, he's got a real job. That's cool. He's got a nice smile. Yeah, he does. Very nice. Yeah, he's a handsome guy. He's got... Well, he didn't have to put his smile back together off of a street curb either. Yeah, that's true. Like, I had to cobble myself back together. But, yeah, so from that, all those injuries, I am now, like, my body's just all fucked up. Well, how long were you in the hospital for me? I was in for, like, a month and a half. But then I had like two dozen surgeries within a short.
9:34Dude, my legs are all fucked up. Look at this. It looks like uncooked chicken. Can I show you? Yeah. Does it gross you out? No, it's okay. I can see it. Okay. Wow. Okay. That's a real deal right there. That's a flat. Yeah. That looks like some uncooked chicken meats. Damn. Homie's got a flat on there. Yeah. And is that a, wow. Can I touch that? Yeah. Yeah. Touch that. Oh my God. That's magic. It's really smooth, right? This is what older ladies, this is what they want their skin not to look like, but to feel like. Oh, that's off-road skin. Yeah. But that's kind of smooth, right? Yeah. Touch that again.
10:08I don't think you're getting... Yeah. Let me touch the underside. Yeah, get the underbelly of it. I can't feel that, Theo. The underside tickles me a little touching it. I can't feel that. You can't really? No. So a lot of nerve damage. Was that thing just hanging on? What happened? Because that looks kind of rekindled. Yeah, both. And then this side isn't as bad. That one has a dip in it looks like. Yeah, because this is like the actual muscle. And then it dips here. Oh, my God. You know what it reminds me of that Body Wars thing that comes to all the exhibits, you know, Body World? I think it's called Body World, I believe.
10:40And it's also, Body World is pretty incredible, man. It is kind of fascinating. There's one where they spliced a pregnant person. You have to. Oh, you have to splice a pregnant person. That's a way to do a gender reveal, I think. The exhibit is set up so that one starts at the skeletal system. It's an exhibition showcasing human bodies that have been preserved through a process called plastination and dissected to display bodily systems. It opened in Tampa. Oh. Which is – I wouldn't have expected that. Tampa, they allow a lot of stuff. Yeah, but it seems like a thing that would sprout up in Boston.
11:25Like some Harvard people were like, yo, let's start up this thing. Right. Tampa doesn't feel like it should. That's a good point. Somebody won it in a lawsuit. I think it probably had to start it in Florida maybe based on legalities or something. Yeah, it was a divorce. Yeah. Someone's like, well, I'm keeping the exhibit. That idea we had? I'm keeping that. I'm running with it. The exhibit displays internal organs and organic systems, body stage and active poses and fetuses in various stages of development. It opened in 1995. Guess when I was ran over, dude? 1995. You're lying. Uh-uh. Oh, my God.
12:06Maybe they read about me in the paper and were like, hey, I have an idea. Yeah. Let's take this show on the road. Let's take it on the road, dude. Yeah. I thought I'm – I wonder if I – I won't shut up about getting hit by a symmetric. I hope I didn't retell that story. It's fascinating, man. No, I don't think so at all. And here's a little bit of Real Bodies exhibit, and you just get to see the texture. That's what this reminds you of. You have a very kind of beef jerky from the knees down. But smooth, but smooth. No, it's nice. It's not a hard jerky. Well, it just also seems – you seem strong.
12:40Thank you. Thank you for saying that. Do you think your body had to – your legs had to be stronger after this because – It was a ton of physical, like years and years and years of physical therapy. And what sucks now, dude, is I'm back in the physical therapy grind. Because of it? Yeah, whatever happened, like three years ago, I was shooting this show in Germany. And I like was wiggling around and I like kicked my leg up. And like I was like ping and something pinged down here in my groin. I was like, I got my balls popping out, you know, like you have a hernia. and like my insides are oozing out not oozing out they weren't like so then it was just something like got tweaked and then it was just like bing bing bing bing and the muscles all up all got fucked up and so i had two surgeries i was like it's my hips i'm gonna have so i got hip surgeries on each side it wasn't the hips so it's been three years of like trying to cobble my body back together and i was so fucked up and i was so tight and tense and i was getting these spasms I went to the doctor.
13:42The doctor one month before my son was born was like, you're dying. Swear to God, Theo. He goes, you have stiff person syndrome, which is a real disease. It sounds like a boner joke, but it is not. And he's like, you got stiff person syndrome. And that essentially the like average lifespan of someone with stiff person syndrome is like five or six years. and I was like I'm dying I'm dying so for a solid couple months I was like my my son is just born I'm going to die and what are you feeling like you feel like a gingerbread cookie kind of style or like how stiff are you at that point I'm a lot better now I was so stiff I couldn't like I could hurt I like I would move and everything would go crack crack crack crack crack crack Crack, crack, crack.
14:28And it hurts to just move at all. And I would have these crazy spasms. And, like, it would – they would happen in my stomach sometimes. And it looks like I'm pregnant, like a little fucking arm is pushing out. It was wild. Bring some of that up. Stiff person syndrome. This is a real – it's a real – Celine Dion has it. Oh. So then I go through all this testing. And then they were like, you know, we don't think you had this. We think this is from your accident. and I'm like, okay, thank God I don't have this. And then I go through another six months. I'm on the set of The Righteous Gemstones. I'm not getting any better.
15:05In fact, I'm getting worse. And I tell Danny, I'm like, dude, I have to dip. I have to go see the stiff person syndrome guy. And it was so scary because he's the guy that's going to tell me if I actually have it or not. Oh, really? And I'm there. It's after hours and they saw me special, you know, and I just hear his little click, clack, click, clack, of his old man doctor shoes and he comes and he has those eyebrows that are like wizard-like. Yeah, like the eyebrows that like a bird will land on one. Yeah, absolutely. And you know if you have eyebrows like that, you're like – you have wisdom, right?
15:39Yeah, definitely. Yeah, people who trim their eyebrows are obviously dumb as fuck. Yeah, you're not. Yeah, dude. You got to let those things sprout if you're lucky enough to have some wiry brows. And so he comes and luckily he tells me I do not have it. so thank god but it was like a wild ride where i'm like i think i'm dying now now i'm like it's from my accident it sucks but hopefully i can get better so some of the mental fear is is gone away because you got the verdict and then i think from that some of the physical has gotten a little better because the mental because i'm not just like because i wasn't sleeping i was sleeping like three hours a night i was just going online sitting on the toilet watching TikTok videos of like people with like that are like, I'm living with stiff person syndrome and it's, I'm living an okay life.
16:29And you're like, Oh, this is doing good. It's like, I'm doing good. Somebody sent me on a counter so I can look at the children or whatever. Yeah, totally. Totally. You're like elf on a shelf, dude. That's exactly what it was. And I'm like, and it's, I feel so bad for these people. And also in turn, I'm like, this is going to be me, dude. I'm going to like, Like my wife is just going to have to like wheel me into the living room as I watch my like little son walk for his first steps. You know, I think it's going to go like that. But luckily it's not. So that's been since I saw you last, dude. That's what I've been doing.
17:04And that's so stressful. I can imagine, man. I'm so sorry to go through that. Yeah. It's unbelievable. And where you started like. So that's why I was stretching. That's why. Well, you can get dysplasia, too. That's one of the things. So dogs get a lot. Well, a lot of Australian shepherds get it. My friend Scott has an Australian shepherd. People say I'm an Australian shepherd as a human. I could see that a little bit. Dysplasia refers to abnormal development of growth of cells or tissues, which can be mild, moderate, or severe, and can sometimes be a precursor to cancer. Oh. Oh, I didn't know that.
17:35I didn't know that. I thought that was when your hips got all tight. Yeah, let's look up hip dysplasia. Yeah, that's what I was thinking, hip dysplasia. This guy's trying to upsell us. I thought that would always be kind of a cool name for a 90s hip-hop group. hip dysplasia hip dysplasia condition where the hip joint does not develop properly resulting in abnormal fit between the ball and socket of the hip the exact cause of hip dysplasia is unknown but it may be related to genetics position during pregnancy and history of hip dysplasia in a family don't have that thank god now were there things were you having to roll out your legs and stuff like tell me some where they roll out every day dude i have to roll out yeah i carry around like the ball the ball i really fuck with uh i do uh acupuncture once a week i do body work at least once a week i do a thing called functional patterns which is it teaches you like how to stand proper properly using weights and different kind of things and then i do regular physical therapy uh and and that's about it right now but like and then i do chiropractor that hooks me up with like this machine that zaps you you know like a tens unit i guess stem pads yeah but like this is supposedly like the hot shit machine that zaps you even more i don't know even what it does but i'm like doing everything so like right now when i'm not currently working on a project it's like five days a week all week physical therapy every week physical therapy type stuff yeah man yeah that's like having another child it's almost like having another child it's like having to take care of yourself like that is really extensive it's so annoying and then like I might do this movie and it shoots in South Africa yeah and I'm like running around and it's like an action sort of movie and I'm like am I gonna fuck myself up again so now I'm like looking at projects with little side eye going like, can I handle this shit?
19:39What about a calm project? I need a nice chill. Peeping Tom type of thing. If I could get a Peeping Tom gig, dude. That's where I'd really shine. Get him on the ladder!

I love like putting all the little pieces together and you feel like you're the quarterback of a football team and, you know, the whole crew is working together and everybody is working for one common goal. but then when it's wraps a movie you really only spent like two months together or however long and so it's like saying goodbye and it's you know it's difficult because you made friends with some of these people but then on a TV show it's years and years of your life and you really form like real friendships with some of these people so I like that better in the way that like some of these crew people I'm going to know for the rest of my life and then uh it's just nice to build a relationship so that's what I love about tv and I'm like I'm trying to pitch another show with the workaholics guys and working on a few other projects that I hope I can get off the ground um tv wise because it's nice just to have something that you can come back to every year and grow with the characters and you know have it morph over time like gemstones ending like that show was a wild ride dude it got us through the pandemic through two strikes, through all these ups and downs, all this turmoil.
28:45It was nice to come back and have this be, you know, kind of home base. And I know you just recorded with Danny a couple weeks ago. Yeah, it was great. Oh, isn't he the best, dude? He's so great. I was a little bit nervous. I wish I had just talked about more regular stuff. We talked about, like, some family stuff. It was great. Yeah. It was great. You know, you just always kind of have your druthers, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I didn't know. I had no clue what he was going to be like. There's not a ton of stuff out there about him. Well, he likes to be mysterious. you know and it's good he does a great job of it and he was talking about how like by not having social media and all that kind of stuff it just keeps him it lets him have his brain space for himself he's like you have to have time to be kind of just where your brain's not doing anything you know and he's so good about like doing what he does and not feel i think it's so easy just to be like i have to be everywhere i have to be doing and i i feel this way sometimes i'm like why don't I have a snapchat presence like fucking snap who am I yeah I'm not I'm not like a 14 year old tiktok girl like yeah if you'd be a pedophile if you had one yeah I don't need to be a pedophile I just I just want to everyone's doing it the uh it is Hollywood it's Hollywood man uh yeah so he's he's and he's just the coolest boss man it was so fun yeah you know you meet him and you're like i was the same way you're a little on your heels you're a little intimidated right because he's such a presence and uh i remember the first time i met him i was it was at an after party uh for like this is the end or something and we were doing a movie that seth rogan produced game over man which i did with the workaholics guys and so we were there at the after party and i was trying to smoke with Seth, like go toe to toe with him.
30:30And I smoke weed. I'm good at smoking weed. I would say not as good as Seth Rogen. Yeah. He's, yeah. He's like part of a joint. Yes. He looks human joint. And so I'm, I'm, so I'm like in a fucking day is fully crossfaded. And also he doesn't drink, but I do. So I'm like just guzzling vodka while still trying to keep up with him. And through this, you have stiff person syndrome. This is pretty stiff person. Okay. This is pre-mystay. But out through this cloud emerges Danny McBride. And he's on like my Mount Rushmore, you know, a favorite comedian. And just seeing him walk up, he just has this – everything that he says is his character.
31:10So it's like – Yeah. It's just him. Yeah. And I was like on my heels. And so I go, you're Danny McBride. And he's like, dude, yeah, I know. And he's like, hey, man, nice to meet you. and then I looked at him and I said you're a bright shooting star what? like what the fuck dude? you're a bright shooting star I told him you're a bright shooting star which I think is like a Native American type of thing it might be a Native American but it's also like I think from Boogie Nights or something and so I said you're a bright shooting star and he's like yeah okay man and I grabbed my girlfriend at the time and I was like we have to leave and she was like I'm having a good time why are we leaving I'm like I just called Dana McBride a bright shooting star and she was like you're right let's get out of here like yeah fucking you're out of your mind dude let's get out of here but when he cast me on the show he did not remember that I think he also was pretty crossfaded as well so he didn't remember that he might have been cooking with Seth yeah he might have been also cooking with Seth dang dude that's crazy so thank God Yeah.

It's tough because you want to impress him, but you also want to just learn about him. There was a lot of little stuff. And to know that he liked the directing side and the thinking about in the program that he that he thinks about that more than it seems like he does probably the acting side.
35:49Not as a judgment. No, no, no. That's right. That's the stuff that he talked about why he even got into things. That's the stuff that he likes the most. Like he's like, I won't really go back and watch things. I like to just be there in that moment when things are trying to are chaotic. And how do we figure it out? And I was like, wow, that's kind of fascinating. He's a really smart guy. He went to film school first and like so he came into the business wanting to be a writer and a director. And that's what I wanted to do too. And I remember telling my mom, I'm like, I think I want to go to film school.
36:18That way I can learn the other side and then put myself as the lead in projects. And then I could have all the creative control. And my mom, bless her heart, was just like, you're an actor. Just go be an actor. He was like dunking on me a little bit like, okay, dummy. Just go be. You've already been the actor. Yeah. You've already been hit by the cement truck. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's not push our luck here. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Next, all you need is a lumber truck and it's a wrap, dude. Yeah, dude. A freaking steamroller. Dang, dude. So Jim Stones is, but no, yeah, getting to see him. Well, it was funny because I went in the lobby and they were waiting in the front room and they're like, Danny's here.
37:00And we were trying to get ready a little bit and just spent a long week. and I go in there and he's just pretending that he's sleeping in the chair. It's just so funny. Kind of something a kid would do, you know? He's the best. It was just like, you know, I've walked in there and there's been 100 guests in there and never once has one just pretended that they're sleeping. Dude, he'll like when you're on, he likes to keep things light and fun. But he's also just like a little rascal, you know? And so you'll be shooting your side of a take, right? And it's over his shoulder. And he'll just go, like, as you're trying to act.
37:41And you're like, what the, like, dude. And he's, like, the guy that'll break the most. Oh, yeah? And I think it's, like, to keep things light. And also he just thinks like he's such a good – like such a giver that like he wants you to know that he thinks it's funny. Yeah, maybe a cock light, a little light that can do cocks with it. That's sick. That was great. You need that, honestly. He had like a little wiener laser or whatever. It was like – you know how they have that light you can shine on somebody at like a – somebody who's given a conference or whatever. Like a laser pointer. Yeah, and you shine it on him and you circle his dick with it.
38:18Social Security comes up and rescues them or whatever, so they'll get shot or whatever? Well, um. Secret Service. I don't think Social Security is wrong. Sorry. Actually, Social Security, apparently, Charles is taking it out of business or whatever. Yeah, it's nowhere to be found. So. Yeah, dude. It's just going to be your grandma being like, what? I need this to survive. Here's a cock light instead. Yeah, that's what Social Security is going to send you a gift each month. Yeah. Like, hey, we don't have money anymore. They took that. But here's a cock light. Those days are over. But yeah, I mean, maybe for some people, worth it.
39:00What about this labia nightlight we're going to give you, though? Yeah. Yeah, this was it. It projects five different dicks. And I didn't know that. He didn't take me through all the cocks. He showed me that one right there. I mean, I feel like this is something that you need to spend some time with. Yeah. I feel like you got to dust that one off and play with it a little bit. I brought it to Las Vegas with me this weekend. And I was even using it during some of the fights. I would low-key. People didn't know it. Oh, that's fun. But like there were some of the fights going on and I'd flash a cock on somebody.
39:26Which is crazy. I'm sure you get weird gifs like this all the time. I get weird shit constantly. Like where they want you to talk about it on your podcast or they, you know, what I'm saying. I just got this gif. It was like offensive. there was this dildo company or something like a sex toy company and they sent me one that it's to fit over your dick so you have a bigger dick it was called the little more and you strap it onto your dick so your dick is bigger and i'm like why why was i singled out as though as the guy a little more yeah i think is this it maybe maybe yes you strap it on you put it under your your nuts through a little hole you put your nuts into it as well yeah underneath so it can stay on oh i see so you kind of put your nuts through a hole and then it stays on top stays on top so do you even need to use your not that i've tried it on not that i know everything about it yeah and what is it a 41 regular what size it's a 42 short it's stocky like me just a short stocky little uh yeah that's exactly it was amazing i like a little more five and a half inches that's so sad dude if that's your little more hey you know i guess that person would really need it like it's a smart car of totally totally that's that's something that your wife or girlfriend gives you i like that that one's sold out i know yeah that one's sold out there they ran out of those they're like that means you have to have like a four inch dick to then and you want to rock up to five and a half yeah for like your wedding or whatever yeah for a big event i wonder if i would like you know i guess it's kind of nice because then your wiener could not even have to be erect you can kind of be soft as long as you're able to fit the mold and just rock this thing yeah that's good if you're like you're you know you're a little jet lagged you're a little tired oh yeah i've been doing like for 20 years then yeah so and and then you know you're you're like you don't really want to give it up but then you know but still these women crawling all over you know oh my god it's it's exhausting oh you gotta smash them just to keep them off the ceiling fan you know for real i know i know exactly what you mean no dude i'm married i have a one-year-old baby my wife is like please stop yeah touching me for for 18 more years do not touch me There we are We're a beautiful family Wow dude that must be nice To have a beautiful family Is that a real picture?
42:02That's our living room Y 'all have a boat? Yeah dude You're lying Oh my god That's what happens when you have stiff person syndrome You're like you know what I'm basically a retiree now Now I just stretch I do like yoga in my backyard And then I take boats out They just tie you to the front like in that, what about Bob? Yeah, I'm exactly like that. Your character in – congratulations too on your family. Thanks, dude. How soon after a wife has one child do they want to – isn't there a strategy there that starts to come in? Like do we have another one immediately? Do we hold off? Yes. Because you don't want to have an only child I don't think.
42:43We don't. We want a two-banger, the one-two punch. and I think we want to try to go fairly soon, you know, just to pound it out. Yeah, keep the things going. I feel like once you're used to doing diapers, I'm like, let's keep this thing rolling. I know how to do, whoop, I know how to do this quick like. You don't want to get out of the diaper phase and then suddenly you're like, oh, fuck, I got to do this again. You have to dust them off or whatever. Yeah, you're like, yeah, well, like, how do I even? Yeah, what are we doing? What are we doing here, dude? Yeah, I guess that's true. Knock them all out.
43:16we just had candace owens on and she has had four kids in a row one two three four she's on her fourth child right now that's a lot per year so it's just like oh that's a lot yeah at that point you're kind of running a distillery it seems like yeah that's too much well i feel like it finally got to the point that like my wife is allowing me to touch her a little bit right like sometimes so then i know if like we run it back and have another kid then it's off the table for another year yeah you know yeah so that sucks but it kind of fits so with your gemstones characters Your Jim Stone's character is now fully a homosexual male, right?
43:51That is right. That is right. And what's that been like? What's that journey been like? Like, how did you get – did you – My wife doesn't love it. Okay. She's not super attracted to that guy. That guy. Yeah, it was – you know, it was – it kind of seemed like it was going that way. And it was really fun to play like a character that had like a secret. you know a little secret that uh i didn't want to divulge so it was nice this season i'm out i'm proud and i and i could just like be because i i don't know about you but i have like uh some gay family members and when they finally came out it was like they were they had a new lease on life they just seemed happier they like a new personality emerged from their cocoon they're They broke out of the hetero shell, and now they can just be gay.
44:45Yeah. And so it was super fun to play that. Dang. Yeah. Yeah, and did you have to channel any specialty or special gay folks, or did you call a gay person? Did you contact some other gay people? Did you take a small weekend retreat or something? Is there any? No, I didn't. Yeah, there wasn't a lot of gay reasons. Yeah, it was mostly just acting. Okay. I didn't go on any gay retreats. Not that I'm opposed to it. No, I'm just wondering, did you – and do you have to ask like a – is there like a – because like sometimes with some black stuff, if you want to use the name word, you have to get a pass.
45:27Yeah, you would – You really need a lot of co-signers on that. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, like a lot. There would have to be like a long list. It was like all these people said I could say it. Yeah. Yeah. But anyway, I was just wondering, do you have to get a gay pass from an acting guild or anything to play? No, I think I just did it. I hope I don't get in trouble. Yeah, fuck. Now that you're kind of airing it out, I'm a little bit like, did I do them dirty? But I don't think so. I don't think so. Yeah, I have some gay friends and they were like, it's great. It's fantastic. Yeah. because I think I walked the line of being a little flamboyant in moments but then not in other moments as a gay man should and would let's bring his character up too here just so we can get a gander at him as well I also have been pulling some looks the last couple years my fashions are on point yeah I think it was not shocking I don't think to people that your character could have this going on.
46:31Yeah. Because there's also, there's always a surprise gay person in a lot of religious families. Absolutely. And look at this. Look at that guy. Look at that sex pot. I mean, that guy could be seven or 41. That's exactly how old I am. And this guy's been fucking, this is unbelievable that this even exists. Yeah, dude, I know. it was such a fun character to play you know where i i channeled the the the character was a lot of wrist work like i i was i just do you because when you're acting for me if i'm some if i'm not playing like adam de mamp from workaholics was pretty similar to myself just the more manic version of myself you know uh so i didn't have to do a lot but other characters where i'm like he's different than me i have to find something where i can click in physically i found like just doing different things with my hands i would be able to channel him in ways that uh i i that isn't me yeah i can totally relate to that like sometimes when you go to costumes for a uh a part and you'll try on different ones and then you'll put on like a certain outfit or something to have you in and you're like, oh, this is kind of it.
47:49And you start to feel a little bit different or you'll like, kind of like, if you walk around. You hold yourself a little differently. You strut around a little differently. For me, it was on Gemstones, I got, they gave me these, well, I actually requested them. You know how like certain people will wear glasses even though they don't have anything wrong with their eyes? Yeah, I'll do that. It's like a fashion thing. and so you put them on and just like well those are sunglasses you just look cool oh you're saying just like regular glasses but no sun window glasses regular window glasses and you put them on just for like a fashion sake oh yeah yeah I've done that so that to me when I put that on I like became a different character I was like I was like doing a little bit of a fine.
48:46Yeah, like that. And that's how I morphed into Kelvin Jamstone. Well, a lot of, there's a lot of gay activity in nature as well. You know, if they. Back to nature, dude. By the stream, they're either killing each other or they're fucksing. Bring up that. They just had two humpback whales, if you can find that, having sex. And they're both males. So this is. Oh, shit. So I'm just saying, Jamstones. Inspired them. is not the only people that are finding themselves. Yeah. Right? Two male humpback whales are seen mating off the coast of Hawaii, of course. Yeah, obviously. Oh, dude, I'm in Hawaii. I'll fuck anything.
49:25Yeah. When biologist Stephanie Stack first saw the photographs of two humpback whales mating in the warm waters of Hawaii, she says her mind was completely blown. When I realized that it was two males, it was not what I was expecting. I thought, oh, my gosh, this is incredible. says this is the first she's um a biologist at the pacific whale foundation in maui which sounds like a um something that doge is gonna bust soon uh says this is the first time humpback whale sex has been documented she co-authored a paper about the rare sighting in the journal marine mammal science yeah elon's gonna be like so we've given two billion dollars for gay whale porn and we only have one photo one photo if they had a lot of films that could make money on Pornhub then we'd keep it going but we got one pic it's not worth it you can't even open up an OnlyFans yeah that sucks dude you know there's an OnlyFans I just saw this morning one of the girls on Harry Potter started an OnlyFans I mean I don't know her?
50:41I don't know. Harry Potter's got less hair on it. That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. Allegedly, and these are rumors. I don't remember the girl's name. It wasn't Hermione. It wasn't the number one stunner. Jessie Cave. Hermione. Harry Potter star Jessie Cave says she's now an OnlyFans now, and her reason why is pretty understandable. It's understandable. I think she said she wanted a new roof or something. Like she was going to do some home remods. Oh, yeah. Which, by the way, I've done some home remods. It's expensive, dude. Oh, it's 50 racks for a roof. It's probably 30 racks for a roof, maybe.
51:20Yeah, oh, dude. No, I just did it. It's 80. Nuh-uh. Mm-hmm. 80 for a roof? 80 for my roof, yeah. How strong is it? It's a really, I guess a really strong one. Oh. There's, what do they call those, clay shells? What do they call those? Three little pigs roofers. We used to have that group. Oh, I don't know. Yeah, we didn't get that. I wonder if I could start an OnlyFans just showing off my calves. Oh, yeah. You know, I only got four toes. Nuh-uh. Fell off in the bathtub, homie. After the accident? After the accident. My dad was missing a knot or something. One of his little arms or finger. Finger, they call it.
51:56Hand arms? Yeah, one of the hand arms. Dude, I got hit by a Trans Am when I was a kid. Not to the effect of you. With Trans Am Does that have the Firebird on it? It was Silver Trans Am Bring it up Silver Trans Am 19 I would say probably 85 Pulled up an 85 Trans Am Well that's kind of sick That's a cool car to get hit by It had an aftermarket hood on it And Joe Dirt was driving it And that's why you were like I've got to work with Spade I got slammed right in the middle of Joe Dirt This is sick dude I wouldn't mind owning that car Yeah that's a sick car to get hit by But you have a cool old car don't you?
52:33No, I used to have, I mean, not even old. It was like, I just didn't buy a new one. I used to have a Camaro. Oh, yeah, that's what you had. Yeah, I had a, but it was like 2010. Yeah, there's my foot. There's my foot. That's my foot. Oh, my God, and it's darker, huh? Yeah, I think it was just the lighting. It's pretty normal looking. I mean, normal for my legs. It looks fast. Yeah, it looks like those toes can grab something. Like, I can reach out like you throw me a ball, and I go, yeah, just snag it out of the air. but they can't catch things they're just regular toes uh it fell it fell out uh it fell off i've told this on my podcast but um it fell off in the bathtub when i was masturbating for one of the first times in my life you're lying seventh grade i was masturbating i just learned that my penis did tricks and i was playing with it and uh it fell off in the bathtub dude baby girl why yeah Yeah.
53:25Yeah. And what, I don't understand how did it, were you taking blood flow from that area into your wean? Like what was happening? It was hanging on by a thread. And they said that it was either going to grow, like attach, and it was going to be fine. Or more than likely it was so charred, it was just going to flop off. And it was, I mean, this is gross, but it was maybe one of the first times I ejaculated. And I'm in this bathtub. And I'm like, oh, this is gross. There's stuff in here. And now I'm in this bathtub. And then I see the little toe just floating in the glunk. No. Yeah. And did they meet up?
54:05Yeah, they were swimming together. Yeah. Yeah, it was pretty nasty. Why? Kind of a nasty dude. You would think that it would be able to help it. Yeah, all of a sudden it just regrows. Is there enough DNA in there? Yeah, all of a sudden it grows a toenail. and then it turns beautiful pink and I just reattach it I screamed out and then my mom came in and it was like oh what and I'm like my toe and then she's trying to fish the toe out and I'm like get out of here get out it was wild did you tell your well now your mom knows what happened have you masturbated since then or no yeah a few times a couple times yeah I do I do I'm not afraid to admit yeah I like it I like it I don't like it that I used to like it and now I'm like what are we doing yeah I understand that and I get that and that's how a normal man should be but I'm like when I'm away like I you know wife and kid at home now if I'm on the road doing something I'm like daddy's alone you know some sweet treats time for some hand magic They stopped giving lotion in hotels.
55:17A lot of hotels, they don't have the lotion nearby. Really? They used to have a small free thing of lotion. They used to always have the lotion. The last few hotels I've been in, nice hotels, they don't have the lotion. I think too many people were jerking off. They were like trying to cut the jerk off numbers. They're trying to knock those down. I wonder if there's a shortage or something. Yeah, maybe. It's probably Doge. Yeah. They're like, what do we do? We're spending all this money on lotion? No more. We spend$4 billion on lotion? How do we subsidize lotion, dude? Man, the mainstream media is a big machine.
55:51I believe that that's conclusive. There's no more debating that. They shape stories. They hide parts. So we're never really seeing the whole picture. Before you know it, you're stuck in this echo chamber, just getting one side of the story over and over. That's how the algorithms work. That's why I like ground news. It lets you see how different news outlets cover the same story, left, right, center. You compare it all in one spot and think for yourself. For example, there's this article right here on Ground News that says White House narrows April 2nd tariffs. Then you can go to another. All the headlines are right there, and you can see all the headlines from the different news sites all on the same page.
56:38I don't think we've had something like this where you can really shop for your news and look at basically the nutrition facts of it and see, well, which site is giving me the real thing, which site has the most bias in it. You can compare the same headlines, the same articles from one site to the next, all in one spot. Expand your view of the news. Go to groundnews.com slash theo.

57:23I've never seen anything like it, actually. I think it's kind of what we've all been wanting. You all know I like to keep things cool, even in the winter, and nothing's cooler than a blue cube cold plunge. I'm fortunate enough to have one at home, and let me tell you, it's like baptizing your soul, but be getting that little crispy bucket, baby. It gets rid of them demons we all have and makes you feel great for seven or eight hours afterwards. It's good. My buddy Thomas Schiffer, the genius behind Blue Cube, and I go way back, and he just launched a presale for their new stand-up cold plunges.
58:02Wow. These things are the Cadillacs of cold plunge therapy. American-made, full immersion, weatherproof frames, and built like a Sherman tank. I'll say this. they are built well. And because you're listening to me, you can get a sweet discount when you mention my name. That's right. Just tell them Theo sent you and they'll knock a good bit off the price. So if you're ready to boost your metabolism, eliminate inflation and blast away your anxiety, give them a call. Head over to their website, bluecubebaths.com and dive into the details, opt in on their website or give them a call. I am grateful for the one that I have, and I feel honestly thankful to be able to have one.
58:48I know they're not in everybody's price range and that's understandable, but at the same time, I want to support my friend and his amazing company. Is pornography causing a problem in your life? Do you find yourself watching porno for longer periods of time and having trouble stopping? Is porn affecting your relationship or dating life? Well, you're certainly not alone. Watching pornography has become so commonplace today, and oftentimes men use porn to numb the pain of loneliness, boredom, anxiety, and depression. Shame and stigma prevent men from talking about these issues and getting help for them.
59:30I want to introduce you to my friend Steve. Steve is the founder of Valor Recovery, a program to help men overcome porn abuse and sexual compulsivity. Steve is a long-term sexual recovery member and has personally overcame the emotional and spiritual despair of abusing pornography and has dedicated his life to empowering men to do the same. Steve is an amazing person and he is a close friend of mine. I mean that. Valor Recovery helps men to develop the tools necessary to have a healthier sex life. Their coaches are in long-term recovery and will be your partner, mentor, and spiritual guide to transcend these problematic behaviors.

Dude, some of the things Doge Busted were insane though. Yeah, it is. It is funny. You know, one of them was like$2 million to eliminate some of the alphabet from like Mozambique or whatever. It was like, what? Isn't Doge a meme coin? I thought it was. So it's funny that it's also like we're going with this for the name. Like whoever owns the Doge coin is probably kind of stoked that they got – they're getting all this free pub. Free publicity for sure.
1:00:58Because they just started advertising it. Yeah. Rock bottom. Fire, dude. You know what? I will say this because they need different types of – because your Gemstone character, his job is he's youth pastor. Yeah well now I think he's just He runs like a sect of the church Called Prism So it's very inclusive So like if you're gay or non-binary or whatever Something Someone who's been othered by society You now can join Prism And God's light will shine through me And I shoot the rainbow onto you Ooh baby I love that We need that We need Like when I was younger There's only like a couple types of gay guys kind of there was like or it just seemed like there was now we need more like you know you need more there's all different types yeah there's all different types now i understand what you're saying like when you're a kid what you see on like movies and stuff there's only like like a secret gay guy yeah there's a secret like don't tell and then like a guy gay guy who's so straight telltale that you're like he's not gay and then the the most flamboyant man alive yeah yeah and And then a woodpecker.
1:02:11And then a woodpecker, yes. Yeah, a guy would just come to – yeah, a guy was like waking people up. Yeah, will not shut up about how gay they are. Yeah, he was just talking about Jessica Simpson all the time. I mean, if you were to pick, that would maybe be the last pop star that I was going to think you're going to pull out of the crate. But yeah, but I mean for sure. But now there's like gay construction workers. There's gay like people that are archers. Yeah, I think there always kind of was. But now you know. Now you know. Yeah. Yeah. Now it's known. And now you can even in church have a gay section of church, right?
1:02:47Apparently, according to the righteous gemstones, I don't know if other churches are doing this. I think they should. They should allow – if there's – just, you know, or maybe they don't have to make it exclusive or include – just make it, but – I don't even think you need a section. Right. That's a thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But now there's more like – yeah, there's just more gay people everywhere now and more common. I like to see even more. Like I would love to see gay train conductor or. That's what my dad was. Really? Yeah, he was a train conductor. Uh-huh. Yeah, I think, you know what I'm sick of is you watch a movie.
1:03:21I wonder if he hit my friend, dude. I mean, now that you say it, it rings a bell for me. He didn't hit your friend, but he did. He has murdered people. Really? Yeah. With a train? With a train. Unreal. With a train. Yeah, he would say that you go, you go. He was like, it's so gross, obviously. And my dad's so funny. He's like, yeah, tell you what. I'm like a little kid. He's told me this story. He's like, hit a hobo. And I'm like, oh, what? And he's like, yeah. And I'm like, oh, is he alive? I'm a little kid. So I'm like, is he alive? And he's like, no. Looked underneath the train. I'm like, geez, looks like ground beef.
1:04:00I was like, we could grill up some burgers with this bum. And I'm like, geez, chill, dude. This is a human being. Who wants a bum on a bun? Yeah. Yeah. So he, yeah. So he's murdered. Bum fights. How about bum with fries? Like what? Dude. I can't believe that. A happy meal. A very unhappy meal. Where was he? And what district was he hitting people in or what section of the country did he even? I think this was Iowa, Nebraska zones. Yeah. So that's a good area to, if you, if you know. I feel like bums be passing out on train tracks there If you were to think of like A classic Bums be sleeping on train tracks That would You think of that area That's the realm Yeah Why do people It amazes me that people get hit on train tracks It's like That's the only place You can be five feet away from there Just don't fall asleep there Like why there I don't know I wonder if it's warm Maybe the tracks are They conduct some warmth Because the trains go up and down them Maybe I was just also maybe 15 feet away.
1:05:06Right. Right. And maybe. And cover yourself up. You know how there's usually rocks along the side? Just cover yourself up with the rocks. Yeah. Off to the side. Right. Stay warm. That seems warm. I agree. Yeah. Yeah. Look at this warm guy under these rocks, huh? Yeah, dude. I think. Do you think you would be a good homeless person? Let me think for a second. I think you get the hang of it quick. I think I would commandeer an area of a park. That's what I would do. I would find a park. stay in it for a couple days and see like an area where nobody really goes. See, that's the hard part because in L.A., there's people everywhere.
1:05:41You got to go, you know, and maybe some of these fires were, I mean, I don't know. I'm not pointing blame, but like it would make sense. I know if I was a homeless guy, I'd be up in them hills, man. I'd be up in them hills. I'd be covered in like coyote skins because I've gone on some hunts, right? And then you have a little bonfire and you're just roasting coyotes and stuff for food. Yotes, they call them. Roasting yotes. Yeah, roasting some yotes. And then you maybe have your own little barbecue stand, but only for other homeless people. And they're like, oh shit, I got to roll up in them hills, get some yotes, get a yotes burger.
1:06:19Ron's slinging yotes, yeah. Ron's got a fresh batch of yote on the grill. Yeah, so that's kind of what I think I'd be doing. So you'd be a high-end homeless then? because you're... Well, I think if you're going to be home, you want to be high end. But they're going to call the police immediately. Poor people would just be like, oh, there's a, you know, that's going to be me in a week. But rich people are like, get this guy. Yeah, get this guy out of here. But you have to be so up in the hills they don't even know you're there. Oh, I see what you're talking about. And you're, you know, you're killing Yotes, so you're like doing a service.
1:06:46Like rich people don't want Yotes around because they kill the dog. They kill like little dogs and stuff. You could tell them straight up, hey, I'm going to be back behind your house. I'll live back there. every now and then if you have some used burberry or whatever throw it back there i think that's how you had to do it because you don't want anyone no one wants just someone living right behind their house and they don't know the guy like you want to be like hey what's up hey what's up i'm theo i'm gonna be living directly behind your house i'm gonna be on the lookout for yotes yeah i'll be calm i'll be quiet i'll fend off woodpeckers you'll sleep if you got like a dirty blanket or something that you don't want anymore throw toss my way but i'm not asking for anything i'm not asking i'll just out here yeah i'm protecting your home yeah honestly if you hear somebody singing jewel once in a while that's me yes just singing these foolish games yeah and also that's a beautiful song so they might they might yeah i think there is a way to live symbiotically with homeless people i think the problem is in some districts homeless people start to battle against each other yeah homeless territory can you bring up some of that you don't like that territorial fights oh yeah there's straight wars dude well there's a lot of that um and there was a group of homeless people that attacked a renaissance fair one weekend really i guess that you couldn't tell who's who like you don't know who's fighting who you're like Either he's a renaissance guy or he's homeless.
1:08:13I know he's covered in fur and eating a turkey leg, but that's either a turkey leg or a yote leg. I'm not sure which one it is. The yotes are thick, homie. That's all I'm saying. You got some thick yotes in them hills. Let's go to this quora right there. It says at the top one. It says, do homeless people ever get territorial? Oh, yeah, dude. Most hobos have a campsite. Tread softly. They know the area extremely well, and I've seen a couple of really interesting alert systems. Alert systems. I've heard of something booby trapped but never encountered that myself. Okay. And I like that on this forum we're bringing back the word hobo because I don't think hobo is a derogatory term.
1:08:52In fact, if I was homeless, you know how now you have to say there's like a new term for homeless? It's called like unhoused. Unhoused, I think. Right. I think hobo is better. Hobo is like a fun – like you think you have a stick and a knapsack. You're riding the rails. Yeah, the wave cotton I do. Yeah, it's like a more fun term. I personally. Who's got a tangerine for Danny? Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Yeah, that's the kind of shit. Yeah. Oh, God, being a hobo. My buddy rode on trains. He jumped train cars for a little while. I think that'd be fun to do. He said one of the problems is, though, this is one of the big mistakes that hobos make.
1:09:29Because are hobos technically people that ride the trains? Is that who it is? That rings a bell. Bring up hobos. How do they travel mostly? My dad said that part of his job was to go up, walk up and down the trains and kick them out. And my dad was like, I'd let him sleep. He's a good man. It's just crazy that your dad – what's up, Dennis? That your dad hit people with trains and then you got hit by something. Yeah. A hobo is a migrant worker in the United States. Hobos, tramps, and bums are generally regarded as related but distinct. A hobo travels and is willing to work. A tramp travels but avoids work impossible.
1:10:04Well, a bum neither travels nor works. Yeah. So, yeah, bums, that kind of, I mean, you don't want to be called a bum. If they call you a bum, you're, like, offended. I don't travel. I don't work. I don't do anything. A hobo's like, hey, I'm getting out there. I'm mixing it up. I'm willing to work. Yeah. I'm willing to work. I'm willing to work. I'll travel. Yeah, we'll travel. But the whole, I think one of the things is a lot of them die in the train cars because they close the door and they don't realize that they can't unlock it from the inside. Yes, and it gets super hot or super cold. Yeah, and also my dad says sometimes there are grain cars, and you can climb up, and then the grain is, like, open, and you can climb in, and then you sink into the grain.
1:10:48No. Yeah, so they'll die that way, too. Took your coat off and stood in the grain. I don't know that song. Was that something you just made up? Crazy like that. This is a little more Jewel. oh dude I wish I knew more Jewel I wish I had a deeper knowledge of Jewel you know my house was just broken into the other day dude what? yeah the house we just saw the photo in with the baby in the boat in the yard? different house I have a house in Hollywood and yeah they broke into my house in and out in under 8 minutes that's a long 8 minutes 8 minutes bang Adam Devine cops take a scary spill this is the second part of this story okay so the so then i get they robbed my house and then i they totally destroyed my security system by the way security system didn't do shit they dismantled it like that these guys are pros they just came in they cut some wires it was done and uh then they were gone so i'm like gotta redo my security system so i pay for them to come and set up the whole thing again and uh and then the cops come because they didn't do it right the alarm goes off i'm out of town so the cops come they're checking the property this poor cop falls 15 or so feet uh like trying to check out my property breaks his arm no gun goes flying baton goes in a bush dude did they catch it's a gnarly fall no so when the alarm goes off uh there was no one there i get a call and the cop's like hey do you mind if we walk through your doors unlocked?
1:12:27I'm like, Oh, did I get robbed again for the second time in two weeks? And he's like, uh, can I walk through your property? So I'm like, sure. Uh, he walks through, I don't get a call. And then my neighbor calls me and he's like, Hey, is everything okay? He sends me a video of this. I'll show you later of this cop. Absolutely eating shit. I felt so bad for him. Also like you don't want the cops to hate you. I'm like, and did he fall off of something off of a ledge or something? Yeah, so how they broke into my house was also where they were checking. You can climb up the side of this hill to get in my bedroom, and they smashed a window to get in.
1:13:03But the cops, when they put the window back in, my contractor didn't lock my door like a fucking bonehead, right? Like a hobo. Like a true hobo move. That's more of a tramp move. Yeah, that is a tramp move, dude. That's a tramp move. Bomb move almost. Almost. I won't say that because that's too offensive. to my contractor but that was a tramp god why'd you do it yeah so and so the cop went what one cop went in the house didn't find anyone lurking and then the other cop i guess he was being a nice dude he was like i got some mud on my shoes i don't want to uh tramp through this guy's home so he tries to climb back down split splat falls 15 feet he gets up his arms kind of dangling like this and the other cop is down there he's like are you okay?
1:13:55you know when you're in a lot of pain you don't say a word you make a sound that doesn't have any sound yeah it's like and so he didn't say anything and I was like oh this guy's he's not feeling right felt bad for the poor guy and did the burglars steal a lot of things that were important or no? no I mean TVs and shit not even they were like in and out in 8 minutes They stole like my wife's purses and stuff, which, by the way, I didn't know how much purses were. I was a little offended that this woman has this many purses. I was like, oh, there's just a few purses. And then she told me how much purses cost.
1:14:31I'm like, you got to stop buying purses, lady. Yeah. Damn. You're not going to have anything to put in the purses. Yeah, exactly. I'm like, oh, the point of a purse is to hold the things that are important. But evidently the important thing is the outside. I didn't know that. That's kind of crazy. It's kind of an anomaly for what life is like or whatever. I don't know if anomalies are right. but that's unbelievable dude yeah yeah so it sucked his second time that house has been robbed i'm a little bummed hmm so i wonder if that's just happening more now do you hear your neighbors and stuff talking about it or yeah so uh blake in his neighborhood has been a lot of thieves in the midst as well um they're saying it's like gangs like gangs are coming in and they they like know their shit because this these guys took my internet down they like had an internet blocker So they pulled up, disconnected the internet.
1:15:18So that way the alarms won't go off or anything. Yeah, and so they – well, the alarm would go off, but the ring cameras went down. So like I didn't even know. I didn't even know it was robbed until my gardener was like cleaning and was gardening. And he was like, Mr. Adam, I don't think there should be a hole in your window. But it was right after those big winds we had, the El Ninos, the Santa Anas. You've been through a lot. And I was like, did a rock fly through the window? Yeah, what could have happened? Yeah. I was like, yeah, what flew through? Did a mango, did an orange fly through this window?
1:15:55Was it a run by fruit team? You know? But it wasn't. It was a criminal organization. God. Yeah, dude. I wonder if they're tracking people, knowing when people are out of town, especially if they're actors and stuff, if they're working at certain times. Yeah, maybe. It's a brave move just to climb up somebody's balcony and see what's going on. Dude, it was at 8.21 p.m., like a time when people were out walking dogs and stuff. So, yeah, they would have been home. Yeah, it would have been home. Yeah, just Cheeto Vera just had somebody pull up on him. You see that video? He's a UFC fighter and he was working in his truck.
1:16:29This is pretty crazy. First one UFC fighter Cheeto Vera was working in his truck as a man with what appears to be a knife tried approaching him. Oh, dude. I mean, first of all, you see this guy working on his truck. He's got neck tattoos. Yeah, this dude pulls up, pulls a knife out right here. Oh, crazy.
1:16:48Oh, he's so lucky he didn't get shot in the back. Like, just like, murder town USA. It shows you two UFC guys that they're ready. They think defense first. Dude, he has a shotgun just laying on his front. Like, that was so easily grabbable. Yeah. Well, that's, I mean, you're ready. You're ready. Those UFC guys are ready, dude. If you even fucking whisper to them wrong. You hit the wrong octave during a secret And those guys will All of a sudden they just got like throwing stars Just like think think think Oh they will remodel the way you breathe You have to really You got to be careful around those guys They're severe I feel like I couldn't I mean I own a gun It's so tucked away I would never get to it You got to put both legs down Put like this If you don't know if it's really a strong kickback Have your wife lean against your back like this With her arm up So it's a lot.
1:17:42It's a lot to do. Right. But you guys are prepared as a team then. Yeah. And you got to pop off. I think if somebody, you know, I don't know. It's like if somebody came in your room, what would you do? Say you wake up, right? You think there's somebody in your room. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I would like to think I'm ready. Ready to go. Ready to rumble. Good evening. What do you do? Well, I was home. My alarm kept fucking up because when they redid it, they fucked up. so it would just go off, which is terrifying. And I'm up there staying by myself, and it was like 1 a.m., I'm like trying to go to sleep, and all of a sudden the alarm goes off.
1:18:20After the burglary in your house. After the burglary, and I go, hello! Yeah. I like lower. I like lower. I lower my voice. I'm like, sound not like me. I sound a little trash. I mean, so I'm like, hello! I've got a gun. I'm like, I don't have a gun. You sound like Peter Griffin, dude. I've got a gun. I've got a gun. Hey, Lewis. Yeah, I sound like a guy who didn't make it on The Sopranos. Like he auditioned, but did not get cast. I've got a gun. I've got a gun. Oh. I'm doing a bad dice. Hey, watch out. Oh, I got a gun.
1:19:09I'll shoot you. the bird you start playing that video from um from home alone yeah yeah the burglars dirty animals keep the change you're they're laughing so hard in the other room the burglars yeah they're still you're stealing all my shit just like this guy's good man yeah like we gotta steal from here more often um will you keep will you keep a home um god you've had a life riddled with things, man. I didn't realize that. I'm riddled. You've had a lot of riddling going on. Will you keep a home in Charleston? Are you glad to be gone from Charleston? I'm going to miss Charleston. I wish I would have bought a place there, just so I had more of a reason to go back all the time.
1:19:55And also, not a lot of crime there, so I probably would have been safe. Yeah, have you been? Have you spent any time in Charleston? I lived in Charleston for a while. Oh, you did? Yeah, I hitchhiked up there to chase a girl that I was in love with that I almost had – didn't have to get a cease and restrain or whatever, but it got close to just loitering late at night. That's okay. It was a little rear window situation. We've all been through some things, right? Yeah, yeah. It was college time. You were practicing for an upcoming role of a stalker. What? I was just – this is – I'm an actor. I'm researching a role.
1:20:34like we haven't been we haven't seen you in any roles yes i know i'm only 17 and i i'm not i've never acted anything nor do i have a career how do you expect me to get a role yeah i've got to practice but that was um yeah i love it there i mean it's amazing um yeah um danny mcbride said that you and uh tony would go and work out a lot over there was that a real thing yeah we were oh he's like a fucking true athlete he's got like a real jawline mine mine like ebbs and flows. Yeah, look, he's all jacked. Look at that guy. He's real jacked and juicy. I'm less jacked and less juicy, but I do. What's weird is we work out together all the time, and his body morphed into that, and I look like how I look like, you know, like a regular guy.
1:21:21Yeah, like a guy. Like just a guy you see and you're like, I bet he eats cheeseburgers. Yeah, I hope that guy's okay. Yeah, with me? I think people are like, yeah, I hope that guy's, you know. Like you think I look like I'm not okay? No, I think you seem like – Like, oh, I hope that guy's okay. I'm trying to think of a job that I would see. Say if I saw you, oh, mailman, son of mailman, proud, proud, son of a mailman who's trying to make his father proud. Mailboy. I like that. Mailboy. And I'm not offended. Yeah. I'm not offended by that. Okay. No. Yeah. I appreciate that. I think that's a fair assessment of what I look like.
1:21:57Like, yeah, I think I look like – where you're like, ah, maybe that guy works out. My neighbor hilariously saw me. She's like a – she's the daughter of the people that live next door to me. And she was like 22. And she saw me working out in my garage. Sometimes I work out in my garage and I have my shirt off. And she stopped and she goes, oh, hey. And I'm like, hey, how's it going? And she goes, wow, I didn't know you worked out. Offended, dude. That's an offensive thing to say to someone. Yeah. Yeah. So, but I do. Yeah. It's like if you show somebody your wiener, like a chick your wiener, like I didn't know you'd have a wiener.
1:22:32Yeah. Like, whoa. That's a, yeah. Okay. I think it's fairly obvious that I would have one of those. Yeah. Then I need to get some different clothes, I think. Yeah. Yeah. Spruce up. Yeah. I need to spruce up. Grow the facial hair out a little bit. Or spruce down. Yeah. Dude, can you believe that mail is still a thing? Getting mail. Can you believe that right now as we talk sometime today, a man, a grown man or grown woman that looks like me, just trying to make my father proud? Yeah, that looks like you. That's what I'm making my father proud. He's like, he's going to see me delivering this mail and he's going to look at me and be like, look at this bright shooting star.

Because it's so cold, it's like, you get in it, like, your joints Make it a hot bath in there, you think? Just make it 52 or whatever. Oh, yeah. I like doing that for 10 minutes. That, for me, sets me in a good range. Isn't it weird that now we're all about health and fitness, but it catches 10 years ago, and we were just like little scum buckets just out there.
1:28:54I know myself, I was just gargling with vodka. Where are you getting it in, huh? Oh, dude. Just going for it. Just every night. Were you drinking a lot? I drink, yeah, I would drink a lot. Wow, where were you drinking at? Well, just like at the comedy club or whatever. Like back when I was, I mean, maybe not 10, yeah, maybe 10 years ago, but like that's when Workaholics was sort of peaking. So probably right. Yeah, you've been working for a long time. Yeah, like anything, yeah, but anything like back when I was in the comedy clubs all the time or like when you're on the road all the time, that's an easy place just because you're in a new place.
1:29:30You're like, well, let's go to the bar after the show or whatever. Oh, yeah, that's for sure. Yeah. Did you guys drink at AEW? Who'd you guys fight in AEW? Did you fight? Because I saw Big Justice out there. Oh, yeah. I was looking at the Rizzler, and I'm like, I might be able to take him. I saw him the other night. Yeah, he's nine years old. Rizzler's everywhere, dude. Oh, I think I offended these guys. Big Justice, because I said I didn't even take a bite of the cookie. And then I said, look at Big Justice's eyes. Upset. He's upset. Because I gave it three booms without tasting it. And I guess you're supposed to give it five booms.
1:30:04what who has time to do five boom they do they have all the time to do the booms dude and i didn't know i i'm this was at the super bowl i might have been a few drinks deep yeah for sure might have been you're touching the back of a child i'm already i'm touching a child look at look at like my my my face is hanging a little bit dude this looks like literally a christmas card from epstein's island right here dude there's a fucking there is a brave italian which some people would say like kind of the Magellan of Costco. It was a Costco Magellan with a child. Okay. With just his son. Yeah. Okay.
1:30:40That is his son. I believe so. Okay. I believe so. Yeah. And then there's Adam Devine who's had a couple of drinks. Just lurking. At a Super Bowl. Yeah. Lurking, dude. Oh. Would you, if you were, I mean, real talk. If you didn't know Epstein was a creep and he invites you, he's just a cool billionaire that you met at a party. and you're not getting any weird vibes. He asks you, he's like, hey, I got this jet. You want to come to my island? You got nothing going on that week. You'd go to the island, right? Yeah, yeah. Me too. When people are like, check the logs. I'm like, not everybody. Because even creeps got to take a day off.
1:31:16Like even, you're not fucking the kids every day. Yeah, if you're a pervert, yeah, that's probably a seasonal or like. Yeah, it's a special event. Right, or it's like just when your dudes are there to party. It's like, but otherwise you have to also have like regular people. Regular. Because here's the thing. You have to keep up the ruse that it's a regular place where people go to have fun. That's what I think. So that the guys who do go in perv or the females that do go in perv out there. Yeah. Because it could have been men and women doing it. And I'm not talking about the young people. We don't know.
1:31:47But the adults, they need to be able to trick their spouses into believing that they go there. And they're like, you've been there the one time. You know, it's a chill place. There's coconuts. Yeah. There's coconuts and trees. ukulele there's like that guy doing the ukulele there's the fire dancers that come out and perform yeah there's like a lot of young kids whose parents aren't there do starting a band or yeah they're just starting a band yeah yeah they're just you know this is getting dark yeah sorry there's a character yeah there's like a guy just doing funny yeah yeah he's just doing little artworks where you're like makes your nose too big something that kind of offends you but you're like it's funny right and everyone's like it's really funny and you're like okay all right Yeah.
1:32:23All right. Yeah. I see that. And I'm like, I don't know about it. I don't think all of them are creeps. Like for sure some. For sure some are. But we haven't gotten to. There's no way we're ever getting the real Epstein files. It's been redacted. It's being manipulated right now so much. Well, it's because some of these politicians are probably on it. Yeah, they're on it. And they're like – and whether they were the ones doing dastardly deeds or not, who knows? I don't know. But if your name is on it, like if your name was on it, you don't want it out even if you didn't do anything wrong. Even though you were just there sipping on a smoothie, just having a fun afternoon on this cool private island.
1:33:03I haven't been on a ton of private islands. I would like to go. Yeah, I got invited to one one time. I think it was LeVar Burton. It was LeVar Burton. Yeah, maybe he was a Reading Rainbow guy. He's got a private island. Does he do the Virgin Airlines or whatever? No. No, that's... LeVar Arrington, maybe? No. That is not his name. It's not LeVar, even a little bit. Richard Branson. Yes, very much not LeVar. But yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, you went there? No, they were doing something. He has an island. There was something there, and I somehow got invited. Oh, sick. It didn't seem like something that was for me, maybe.
1:33:40I don't know. It seemed like... Okay, so maybe you wouldn't go to Epstein Island. Maybe I would be the one to get tricked. But here's the thing. say you're at Epstein Island and you notice things are weird what do you then you just stay on the tennis courts or whatever like what would you do all weekend yeah you're just like you you call yourself the pickleball king yeah just always just over there trying to not see some playing both sides yeah yeah there's no one to hit too because everyone's like uh I'm this back dark room seems a lot of fun um yeah and also like the diddy white parties I'm glad I was never during that peak Like I was talking with my boys.
1:34:14I was like, dude, if we threw out a different vibe in the Workaholics days when it was just peaking and that we get the invite. Like, hey, do you want to go to the Diddy party? I'm going all white, everything. Well, if Shamar Moore would have been one of the Workaholics or if you'd have had like probably more of a black cast member, urban cast member. Then you might – and say you – then there's a chance to get invited. If Eric Griffin was more plugged in to the scene. Right. Eric Griffin was a little bit more Griffin than Eric. Yeah. Absolutely. Then I think. Then, yeah. He could have been invited.
1:34:48And then if you get there, then what do you see? They just brought up Drewski in a thing. Did you see that? I did. But he then came out. He's like, dude. He had nothing to do with it. It was like in 2018, I was living in my mom's basement. I'm like, yeah, that's probably true. But it's just crazy. Why? But why even let that leak? You have to start thinking if something gets leaked, why are they doing like because it's all some manipulative tactic, you know? And so I don't know. I mean, who knows? obviously there's victims and and people were doing dastardly but you never heard anything about that when you were no i didn't i mean you know i just wasn't cool like i i didn't get those invites i for sure would have gone there and just like kicked it by the fucking cocktail whatever yeah you know just eating like you know they have like a seafood tower yeah you know this is a party you know there's like towers of seafood so i'm just sitting there eating crab legs licking up the butter they're like someone's trying to tag me in to the orgy just covered in oil you're like no you do that point at your legs you're like i can't because of all the scars i can't uh dick dick chopped off dick was lopped off in the accident uh you do that thing where you know how break dancers they start to do the break dance but then they don't get going you know that's that's what you do you're like oh shit oh oh pull the hammy pull the hammy right quick i can't get in the orgy yeah dude that's where i would have been like in the vaping section on the side of the orgy if they're like oh if somebody gets hurt if a couple people get hurt when you're like you're deep on the bench it's like when they put in the water guy from like to make that three-point shot or they put in the down syndrome guy to make the six-pointer or whatever they tell them it's a six-pointer that's what i would have been in yeah you're real deep on the bench when you come but then you hit that that money shot you're the hero you're the hero of the whole party people go crazy yeah did you um did you get to body slam big justice did you see the Rizzler you fight him too I didn't fight the Rizzler no I and uh yeah I didn't I didn't get to fight any of the children which I was bummed I was bummed yeah yeah uh because I'm like someone needs to take these kids down and I'm about their size dude I'm not that uh but no I I only choke slammed an adult male.
1:37:01So that kind of sucked. But if you got a chance to remodel the fucking skeleton. Dude, I love this phrase. Remodel. Or one of these of one of these boom babies, dude. Take them down. Yeah. Did they boom in front of you? Who's got the boom now? Right. Who's got the boom now, bitch? Did they steal the boom? Did they boom in front of you or not? There's a lot of booming. They're booming all over anywhere they go. They're booming, dude. Have you not met the boom guys? I never. I met the Rizzler the other night at dinner. I saw him. Oh, dude. But, dude, he was drinking Dr. Pepper past 845. I'm like – He's a wild man.
1:37:34Yeah. I mean these kids are off the rails. But I like that it's a new generation of superstars. Oh, there you are. I have Craig's. A new generation of superstar children. Like this used to be like Corey Haim. Right. Oh, yeah. He's the Macaulay Culkin of our time. That's what I said. Yeah, exactly. But it seems like they're not going off the rails. We'll find out here in 15 years if he's going to have like a sad tale about his time. Well, how does it end? Yeah, that's the thing. You have to look 10 years into the future. Because he's a superstar, dude. He does this maneuver. People go wild. He was crazy, man.
1:38:08It's his, ah, you know. Yeah, you're right. Look, someone already beat you to it. They knew exactly. The internet. Undefeated, man. You have a good idea? It's up there. It's done. They already did it. It's done. Yeah. Was there a movie that you wanted to, like, well, yeah. I'll tell you this. He definitely seemed like his grades were failing. Somebody's like, his grades suck. That's what I heard. Oh, really? Yeah. Word at Craig's? Yeah. Yeah. People were passing around those pot pies they have at Craig's, and they're like, hey, before you take a bite of that, just know the Rizzler's grades fucking suck, dude.
1:38:41Dude, he had a little tattoo that said, fuck social studies. Oh, damn, dude. That's rough. Crazy. That's a wild tat to have at that age. So, obviously, he's been going through a lot, you know? he said he I said he said this these lips haven't seen a school lunch in two years that's what he said so obviously he's living high on the hog dude I don't even know I thought he was mute because all I've ever seen him do is yeah yeah yeah you gotta it's the shh he does too many things though kinda I think I think I think it's just this right and he's showing his jawline that's what's kinda cool about him is he doesn't have much of a jawline but I like he's just like I don't give a shit.
1:39:22I got the Riz. So come at me. It's like a good way to build up self-esteem for children that are out there. Some people are saying he's Young Gravy. He's the actual Young Gravy. You know, Young Gravy was at the wrestling event too. Nuh-uh. Yeah. And Young Gravy was at the Super Bowl where I was also hanging out with Big Justice. Oh. So, I mean, they're running in the same circles, dude. You guys have the same menstrual cycle or something. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. But that's crazy. But here's the craziest part to me is that Big Justice isn't related to the Rizzlers. I thought they were brothers, dude.
1:39:59I thought they were brothers. These are just two social media kids getting together, doing their social media things. Dude, years from now, there will be like these baseball card signing things where it will be like the Rizzler. You and me will be there. That would be sick. Water baby or whatever, some baby that survives on like the – You know, I think I'm going to do a thing with Tops. To have a baseball card. Really? Yeah, you should. I bet they'll make a baseball card of you. It's kind of sick. It's kind of cool. It would be kind of cool. Yeah. And then there's these kids, MD Foodie Boys. Everybody's been watching them.
1:40:33I like those MD Foodie Boys. I like them because they're so sincere about like, have you tried nachos with jalapenos? Yeah. It's actually pretty good. Yeah. Let's watch one. I'm just a, if I had to choose, it'd probably be like pepperoni. pepperoni but i'm not a big i'm not a big i'm just a regular cheese guy yeah i just do cheese i don't i don't do i just do cheese i don't really like pepperoni and i don't taste i'll do pepperoni but same thing like yeah lots of big pepperoni fans dude this is the podcast and people love it and i also love it they're just so sincere man how can you not have a how can you was there an age where you didn't like it where you just didn't care it it's just you're riled up you're riled up right now dude i don't know if i've ever seen you this riled well i don't understand it's like whoa you're the foodie boys what are you talking about whoa dude it's okay no it's fine no i like it i like it it just fucking irks me because dude talk about some food talk about some ragatoni or something talk about some um see well this is the genius you start off you start off they're little kids right so they're starting off with like hot dogs like what condiments you like Do you like on your cheeseburger?
1:41:43What condiments? Mostly condiment based. Now they're moving on to pizza. What things do you like on your pizza? And then as they grow, the dishes get more complex. Like a tiramisu or something? We're going to grow with them and their flavor palates. I think that's what people love and relate to because you're not going to them for an actual like – this is the – they're not like chefs. They're children. So it's just kind of funny to watch these kids sincerely talk about whether they like pepperoni on their pizza or not. Got it. Yeah. Well, I just think – yeah, I just – I don't know. There's – yeah, I guess – am I hating on children now?
1:42:27What am I doing? You're right. Yeah, it's okay. I'm excited for them. It's okay to hate on them. At least do soup or something. At least I want to see them evolve a little. Like a spacho or something? Well, just a four-minute conversation about pepperoni on – but no information. That's the thing. It's astounding to have four people and walk away from each conversation they do with zero information at all about food. I understand what you're saying. About food at all. Yeah, I understand what you're saying. But I think – I wish them luck. Yeah, I think they're – I mean they're runaway successes.
1:43:00I mean I'm sure people look at my career and are like, what is he doing? Like this sucks. Right. Like, why doesn't he do XYZ? I'm like, I'm just doing me, baby. There they are right now. But how does it end? McLovin, that kid. McLovin, no name. What's the one? McGriddle is the middle one, right? Chubb Perm. Okay, you have no name, McGriddle, Chubb Perm. Yeah. So that's also, I think that's a, isn't that a trans wrestler? Yeah, it seems like it could be. He's got an earring. He's kind of the bad boy of the group, which is kind of sick. They're basically, they're the new kids on the, um, on the block.
1:43:38Yeah. Yeah. Uh, did you ever have a, an ear piercing? Did you ever? Yeah. I had two of them. Did you? Yeah, I did too. Fuck. Yeah, dude. That shit was so fun, dude. It was weird. And it would close up and you would still force something in it on days you needed to feel cool. Dude, I would, yeah, I tried, I wanted to get a gauge. I wanted to have like, I wanted to be that guy. Your characters had that, haven't they? I wanted, I wanted a lip piercing. I wanted the whole thing. I wanted to be punk rock dude I mean I'm fucking I got an article star tattoo Oh you did well you have a lot of You seem like you've been through a lot Yeah like a child of a Vietnam Like a Vietnam veteran Somebody you know I went through I am happy to say I never went through like you know how some Kids were like oh I went through an emo Phase or I went through like a goth phase I'm glad I didn't go down like a weird Path where you're like yeah I wore A lot of fishnets in 7th grade or whatever.
1:44:31I'm glad I didn't do that. I had like small waves where, yeah, I would bleach the tips of my hair. Right. Yeah. I got a piercing, you know, in the left ear. You ever pierced your nipples or no? No, I never did the nips. You do? No, I never did that. That was a little while for me. That guy who did that was starting to be, he was doing a lot of drugs and he was secretly probably touching men in his car or whatever. Men who wanted it. Yeah, I had a friend, not a friend, a guy I knew in high school. Not a friend. Redacted, okay. He pierces his dick in high school, dude. In high school. And I know for a fact he wasn't getting laid, but he was saying like how good it's gonna feel.
1:45:18And he was saying like, it feels so good and i'm like i know you're not getting late dude we're both 16 17 years old i know that and also what kind of piercer is seeing a 17 16 year old boy and is like let me i'll get i'll be the one to get in there yeah it was the whole thing was bizarre do you remember when the first guy hooked up with a girl and then the next weekend you guys all went out or something he like suddenly had a condom in his wallet or something or it was like suddenly he was like he would be like Like, if the girls come, let me talk to them. Just like – Dude, it was seventh and eighth grade.
1:45:52My one friend started having sex with our other friend. And it was unreal. And it was years, dear God, years before the rest of us were catching up. And so he like – He was like the Lewis and Clark. He immediately went from like this kind of – he was Chubb Perm of our group. And then so – and then suddenly he's got this swagger to him, dude. And there's no catching up. Yeah. There's no catching up. Yeah. There's nothing you can do to suddenly be in the cool group. And then like he was able to talk to older guys now suddenly. Yeah. I'm still rollerblading, you know? Like I'm not – I'm still like, hey, watch me backwards rollerblade.
1:46:32Is this sick? And they're like, no, dude. We're now having sex with girls. And I'm like, oh, so you don't want me – you don't want to watch me like fucking swerve these cones real quick with these hips? He's like, I'm working on my hip movement right now, dude. Yeah, yeah, dude. I was a little blader. I was a little blader boy. Were you? Yeah, that was a little bit of a phase. Oh my god, dude. What happened to you? Dude, you're learning a lot about me, dude. What happened to you? There's so much that occurred. Dude, well, I couldn't. Rollerblading was easier in like eighth grade. It was easier for me to do than a lot of other.
1:47:09Because of your body? I couldn't skateboard. Like my friends were skateboarding. so I could rollerblade because it was just a smoother movement and easier on my joints. I was already like an old man thinking about my joints in 8th grade. It's just me wiggling my hips, skateboarding behind my friends. Yeah.
1:47:32It wasn't that offensive. You don't have to be that disgusted by it. You're right. Were you wearing knee pads and stuff? No, no. I'm still a bad boy. Yeah, dude. I'm still like wearing fucking chunky corduroy pants. And like a fucking sick Metallica shirt with the lightning bolts. You know, I'm still fucking cool, dude. I still have like a bowl cut, but my hair was too, like still, my hair is too like buoyant. So it just went like this. Dink. Oh, yeah. It was just like a little, like the tip of a dick. It was like a little dickhead just like right here. And I could pull it. I could pull the hair.
1:48:14It was so buoyant. I could pull it and it would go down to here, dude. And then you release it and it goes, doink. Damn, you had a beautiful thing going on. Yeah, I was looking good in the eighth grade. Man, you've been through a lot, man. You've been through a lot, dude. Do you – will your stiffness, is it getting better or is it getting worse? Do you feel like over time? It's getting better. It ebbs and flows. I have good days and bad days, but it is getting better. So I'm still hoping to be in Marvel if they give me a call. I got a lot of shit. Last time I came on here, I was like dunking on Marvel saying that they ruined comedy movies because everybody wants to watch these big budget things.
1:48:56Dude, people were very mad. My agents were upset at me. Really? Since you said that, everyone in the world has agreed with that exactly, including a lot of agencies. It's like, well, look, if we can't get him into Marvel, what are we going to do? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we've had a lot of great. They were very mad at me. They were like, don't don't fuck with Marvel. Like, I cannot believe you said that on that podcast. I'm like, I wasn't dunking on Marvel, dude. I was just saying I wish there were more comedies, but they don't make comedies anymore because everyone wants to see a 200 million dollar epic.
1:49:25You know, well, if they if they need like mailman or something, then Marvel will come. Thank God. If there's a mailman superhero, I think I'm the guy, dude. What superhero would you be? Making your dad proud. Yeah. I would be someone that, like an unexpected superhero, where they're like, this guy is not a superhero. This normcore little bitch boy. Smoothie man. Yeah. Soy boy. Yeah, soy boy. There he is. Yeah, little soy boy. There's so many heroes now, though. It's like, are these all heroes?

1:53:21And now, like, with the family, I'm like, I just feel like a dastardly dog. Yeah, well, your wife had a freaking kid, first of all, which she I don't know if she should have done or not, but her choice. I think she should have, yeah. I think she should have, yeah. But yeah, once she did that, it kind of put you in the hot seat. Yeah, yeah. And also, like, being around... That was supposed to be some kind of a joke, but I'm just going to land it. I was, like, blaming having a kid on just her. Yeah, it's her fault. What do you do with having this fucking kid, huh? How dare she? Actually, she slipped that one by me.
1:53:50I just thought she was gaining weight. I'm like, look at my plump little Betty. She's looking all sexy, a little round mound. Look at her go smuggling a little basketball in there. And then out came a kid, dude. It was wild. You just keep tickling her? Yeah. Like, hey, thank you. She's like, don't tickle me. Something's going to pop out. She's like, oh, man. She's having spasms in her belly like I do, looking like a little handprint coming out. Just like me. Yeah, dude, it was wild. when she had it, our son Bo turned around when they pulled him out. He looked right back at me, dude. It stopped my heart.
1:54:27Everyone says it's like a transformative thing to see your son or daughter be born. But it stopped me dead in my tracks. He looked right at me like, bitch, what just happened? I've been all cooking up warm inside. And now I'm out here all cold. He turned around and was just like... Like I'm the captain now. Yeah, I steer this ship. I rise. wow yeah it was pretty wild dude the origin story of humans is pretty crazy that you climb out of some woman's belly dude it's like Greek mythology it's the vagina though some of them come out the belly actually no you were right my wife had a c-section the perverts go out the yeah I'm a little freak like that dog I'm a little freak like that skit skit it's a potty Do not lick on the way out.

Yeah. Watch me nae-nae. Watch me nae-nae. I almost said it at the same time. Adam Devine, man. Theo Vaughn. Thanks so much, dude, for hanging out. So fun. I'm glad to see you. You're physically doing okay. Your family's growing. Um, we got to keep making funds. You have to keep making fun stuff. This was one thing that I thought was really exceptional that Danny McBride said. He goes, you know, I don't know if Hollywood knew that they wanted Eastbound because people were always like, why don't they make shit like Eastbound and Down anymore?
1:55:57You always hear that kind of stuff, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's like, nobody was asking us for something like Eastbound and Down. Nobody was asking us for something like a vice principal. It was like, we just made it and then said, we know this is funny. and then they jump on it because you can't expect them to think of the next thing. That's not what they do anymore. He didn't say that's not what they do anymore, but that's what I start to realize. They don't have that creative thing anymore. That's our job. That's our job. Our job is to give them what we think is the funniest thing, and that's what we did with Workaholics and what we're going to try to do with this new show if we actually get to make it is like you make what you think is the funniest and what you and your friends would laugh at and what you want to see, what you want to actually watch.
1:56:43And then hopefully other people get on board. And I feel and I think you have a finger on the pulse too is we know what we like and it seems like a lot of other people like what we like as well. So I think you just have to make shit that you think is fun and funny and not even what other people want to see because they don't even know they want to see it until you make it. Right. So that's the thing. And that's a lot of things. It's like if you wait forever to get somebody to sign off on your thing, then it might not happen. You just have to go and try and figure it out. And investing in yourself.
1:57:22That's what I realized. Like if I lose investing in myself, I don't really fucking lose. It's like. And at least you did it and you had that experience and you know the nuts and bolts of creating something now. So if you decide to do it again, you can go. this is what I would change. This is what I would do differently. And also the like,
1:57:42like with people making something that they think other people would want to see, that's where you lose. When you start to go, I know that they want to see this type of show. Like this is what's selling or this is what, you know, I think that's when you get in a little trouble. Like make what you want to make. and then hopefully that'll catch on because as soon as you start to like go down the path then it's derivative and people are like didn't we already see this show we've already done this then you're just kind of follow yeah then you're just a follower yeah you know but yeah it's tough it's tough it's tough to figure it out and obviously you and i are we're speaking from a place where you know we can afford to try and make a project so it's like sure you know not trying to sound um like knowing that there's not a barrier to entry to that for uh regular folks It's lowered so much I agree It's so different now that you can get a camera You can get a phone You can figure something out yourself How to make things It was like when we did workaholics Not to just keep harping on this shit But this is my experience When we did workaholics It was the barrier of entry Had just lowered It used to be like to make something like that It was$100 ,000 To make To even make a short film or$50 ,000 or whatever and everyone had to put it on credit cards to try to make something that maybe would work.
1:59:06And you had to slurp off some producer somewhere. You would have to. You're constantly gobbling. You're constantly gobbling. And someone wants you to use silverware when you blow them or whatever. I'm like, how rich is this guy? Dude, my god, fucking pour some Grey Poupon on that bitch and do some gobbles. But now, you know, it was just like a camera and some lights and we were able to shoot something that Comedy Central was like, what you doing over there? You know? Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting. I don't know. I'm trying to sound inspirational to people. Yeah, me too. I feel like it's a lot of word salad for me sometimes.
1:59:40But yeah, I'm just trying to be a fucking inspiration. I think you are, dude, survivor of a cement truck. Uh-huh. You know, the guys fought in the AEW. The Four Seasons of Righteous Gemstones going on right now. New Projects in the Works. The podcast, you can lock in, listen to Adam, have ideas, think about things, share everyday stuff on his life with some of the stars. Yep, this is important. Anders Blake. Kyle Neuachet. Yeah, he's been off the pod. He's been directing Happy Gilmore 2, so that bitch is busy. Too busy for the pod. Must be nice, Kyle. Must be nice. Adam Reline, thanks so much for hanging out, dude.
2:00:24Best of luck, man. Good to see you, bud. You too. That's fun, man.
2:00:52you
