[00:00:08] Speaker A: Right. [00:00:09] Speaker B: Let's get right into it. [00:00:10] Speaker C: No, no, no, let's not. But he. So tonight, seven o' clock at the Music Box.

[00:00:21] Speaker A: It sounds the weather. I wish I wasn't playing pianos. I would go. [00:00:24] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:00:25] Speaker B: Right now I'm spiking a 102. [00:00:28] Speaker A: I got a couple new songs to debut. [00:00:31] Speaker B: Yeah. Tonight. [00:00:32] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:00:32] Speaker C: What's spiking a 102? [00:00:34] Speaker B: Oh, sorry. I'm in Fever. I've got a fever. [00:00:37] Speaker A: What? [00:00:37] Speaker B: Yeah, I probably have Covid. I don't know right now. [00:00:41] Speaker A: Yeah. What are you doing here? [00:00:44] Speaker B: Just a little. Yeah. [00:00:47] Speaker A: Spreading the butter. [00:00:49] Speaker B: You won't get it in here. [00:00:51] Speaker A: Yeah, you're right. [00:00:51] Speaker C: You won't get it in a closed room with no vents. [00:00:54] Speaker B: No vents. [00:00:57] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:00:58] Speaker B: I've had it many times before in here. [00:01:00] Speaker A: Oh, well. And we've been fine those times, so. [00:01:02] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:01:03] Speaker A: You know, logically. [00:01:04] Speaker B: Did you get covered? [00:01:04] Speaker A: No, we're good now. [00:01:05] Speaker B: How would you even know I would cover it right now? [00:01:08] Speaker A: I wouldn't. [00:01:09] Speaker B: We all have covered. [00:01:10] Speaker C: I've had Covid three times, and I knew each time I had Covid. Before it was fashionable, before it was famous. Yeah. [00:01:18] Speaker B: Before they had a name for it. You had it. [00:01:20] Speaker A: No. [00:01:21] Speaker B: You were one of the original Covid. [00:01:22] Speaker C: Yep. When Just before lockdown hit, I had this really weird rasping cough that I could not explain. I'm like, what the is this? And I had it for a week. And I. It wasn't like, you know, kind of affecting me and stuff. But here's what had happened. Is this Russian woman I worked with, when. When word. When people started getting jittery, kind of February, people like, oh, this is. You know, and people were floating like, oh, this is a thing. And blah, blah, blah. Everyone canceled all their cruise ship stuff. So the cruise people were giving away trips. So this Russian woman I worked, shared an office with goes on a cruise. [00:02:11] Speaker B: Oh, my God. This is like patient zero. [00:02:13] Speaker C: Yeah. Comes back. And then shortly after that, she comes back. That's when I got this really raspy cough. I had it for about a week. You know, what. [00:02:24] Speaker B: Is this how contagious it is? It was so contagious then, but it's not. But it's just as contagious now. And nobody cares. [00:02:31] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. And so I get over it, and I think two days later is when lockdown started. And then everything's like, okay, this is. You know. And everyone's running around like. [00:02:43] Speaker B: Because how long do we hear about the virus before lockdown started. I think it was like a week. [00:02:47] Speaker A: Oh, I thought it was like a month or two. [00:02:49] Speaker C: Yeah, it was. It was like. [00:02:50] Speaker B: You're paying attention. [00:02:51] Speaker C: Yeah. If there were, it was floating around like, oh, this is a thing. No, it isn't. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then all of a sudden, I. [00:02:58] Speaker A: Was sitting in a bar that I worked in, Ranali's in Lincoln Park. And I remember sitting there. There's a regular at the bar, and he worked in the medical field. And I remember him sitting there, and they're like, the news is on. And they're like, everyone's talking about it now. Like, I just stopped in. Just say hi, or, like, pick up a paycheck or something like that. You know what I mean? I'm just kind of stand around talking to people, and they're like, oh, they're gonna shut down for, like. Everybody's gotta, like, shut down for, like, the next, like, week or two. Like. Cause originally that was. It was just a week or two. And I remember, like, being like, oh, yeah, this'll be fine. I remember looking at him and the look on his face. He's just kind of looking at the ceiling with this look of like. He didn't want to look anybody in the eyes because he knew, you know, like, no, this is going to be longer than a week or two. [00:03:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it was. It was. It was quite long. [00:03:39] Speaker A: That was the best time of my life, Really. I loved. Was the best. [00:03:45] Speaker C: How did you say that? [00:03:45] Speaker A: Oh, my God. Everyone says Covid was so hard. We had to get there. Oh, people that say that have never gone through anything hard in their life. That's what I think. It's like, Covid was easy. That was great. I get paid to stay at home. I was in the park every day throwing Frisbees. I loved Covid. [00:04:03] Speaker C: I remember being really annoyed the first time I tried to go to the dollar store. And they were doing one in, one out. And I was like, this shit cannot continue. I mean, it was a. Yeah. And I was like, oh, my God, this is. [00:04:18] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:04:18] Speaker B: That didn't make sense. [00:04:20] Speaker A: It was stupid. Everything was so stupid. Going to Trader Joe's and getting your groceries. The one in, one out thing. And then you get home and you're. You're wiping down Triscuits with a sanitizer napkin. What the. [00:04:31] Speaker C: I think it was. What was odd to me is I thought, okay, I was a contractor at the time. And I was like, okay, they're gonna lay off all the contractors that's it. I'm not totally fucked, you know what I mean? But actually I got a job out of it because they were going to lay me off. And then they kept me on to work on a clinical. [00:04:53] Speaker B: Drug. [00:04:54] Speaker C: No, no, no, no. Clinical trial software. Because the first thing, one of the first things Covid did is destroy all the clinical trials that were underway because no one could go into a hospital anymore and no one could get the drug, you know, blah, blah, blah. And so we had to dive into all these systems and how to work with the COVID sitch. So it actually made me a shitload of money. [00:05:18] Speaker B: Yeah, you worked a lot. [00:05:20] Speaker C: Yep. Yeah. And you could get up, you know, I was working with an offshore team, so I told them, like, I'll do a 6am meeting, not a problem. You know, get up, do a few hours. It was bad for my old lady because she worked in travel. So that was it. Career over. [00:05:36] Speaker B: But, yeah, it wasn't a good time for the travel industry. [00:05:39] Speaker A: I was working at a music school at the time. And so for a long time we just, like, weren't going to the school. There just weren't lessons until they were finally like, okay, we have to sustain this somehow, so let's do Zoom lessons. And so that's when you're teaching music, there's some students that you're like, you're just here because your parents need somebody to babysit you while they're getting hammered, aren't they? And then when you're doing the Zoom lessons, you find out exactly which ones you were right about, because you can hear the parents in the other room in the background putting them back. Just putting them back. [00:06:09] Speaker B: Yeah. A lot of. A lot of heavy drinking during COVID Yeah. [00:06:12] Speaker C: The best part of COVID was what it did afterwards when everyone went back to work for a good year and a half. No one was going in. [00:06:22] Speaker B: Right. [00:06:23] Speaker C: You know, even though it was like, yeah, come back, come back. So there was no traffic, which for me was heaven. I could go to work. [00:06:31] Speaker B: Traffic was awesome. Or the lack of traffic. [00:06:33] Speaker C: I could go to work. No commute, no one would come in, just sit there, blah, blah. And that was great. But now it's back to. It's fucking worse than ever. [00:06:43] Speaker B: I'm with you. I really liked full lockdown Covid. I'm talking full lockdown. You know, social distancing, the whole bit. Like, you really just keep to yourself. I like that. [00:06:53] Speaker A: Yeah, it was great. [00:06:55] Speaker B: It was nice. But I didn't like every iteration after that. Right. As we got more back into being around each other. And I particularly hate it now because now it's supposed to be, like, normal, but it's not. Nobody really wants to be anywhere where they are or not. Nobody. They'll never be the same. Life's never the same after Covid. It's not back to normal. You think things are normal again. Oh, you're out of your fucking mind. Have you looked outside the world? [00:07:21] Speaker A: They never were normal. They weren't normal before either. You're just remembering the normal things and forgetting the abnormal. [00:07:27] Speaker C: Were you talking about normal as in the political term? [00:07:30] Speaker B: All of it, all of life? [00:07:32] Speaker C: That's got nothing to do with COVID. [00:07:34] Speaker A: It was just this weird before, and it's just as weird during and it's just as weird. [00:07:38] Speaker C: Yeah, you're just an old man. [00:07:41] Speaker B: Everything, the amount of screen time. [00:07:44] Speaker C: Right. [00:07:44] Speaker B: We were already on the phone so much, but after Covid, it's like I. [00:07:47] Speaker A: Don'T spend any time on my phone anymore. Yeah, that has changed, too. Because you know what Covid is, I think, is what did it. Because I spent so much time on my phone during COVID that that triggered something like, this is too much. I got to stop. So I went hard the other way and stayed there. I use my phone less now than. [00:08:04] Speaker B: I did before COVID You're in recovery now. Yeah, but most people are not. Most people will not admit they have a problem like you. [00:08:12] Speaker A: Oh, I got rid of everything. As a matter of fact, my dad just sent me a text the other day. He's like, I've been trying to message you on Instagram for two months. You're not gonna get a hold of me that way. [00:08:21] Speaker B: That's awesome. I've been thinking about getting rid of my phone as well. Or getting a flip phone. [00:08:25] Speaker A: I have a flip phone at home, and I switch over to that. You can do. You can take the. The little SIM card out of your phone and switch to the flip phone for the day. And it's really. It's great because it's T9, so people text you. You. You are very careful with who you're texting. Like, who's who you're taking the time to send a message back to. Yeah, because it's got to be important because it takes forever, you know, to. [00:08:47] Speaker B: You can't just, like, fire just sending memes and. [00:08:50] Speaker A: Right, right, exactly. But you can get them. And this one, I thought about it. It was like. But, like, what if there's an emergency? I still want to have gps. You can get phones with a GPS signal on it still with like Google Maps. [00:09:00] Speaker B: Get directions. [00:09:01] Speaker A: Yeah. So again, how would it show up. [00:09:02] Speaker B: At a flip phone? [00:09:04] Speaker A: Their color and everything. Like they've got, they've got decent screens. It's not like an iPhone or an Android, you know, but it's, but it's an actual flip. They're good enough. Yeah, it's an actual flip phone and the numbers are giant because they're made for people that can't see the numbers. [00:09:17] Speaker B: I like that. [00:09:17] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. Right. [00:09:18] Speaker B: Send me a picture of what it is. I want to get that. [00:09:20] Speaker A: Yeah, it was great. It was only like 80 bucks. Have it in my drawer at home. Amazon, I think I bought it. Let's say Amazon. Who cares? I think it was like Target or Walmart. [00:09:32] Speaker C: I remember you berating me and Brian McGann once as the last two flip phone users in America. [00:09:39] Speaker B: Probably. Yeah. [00:09:41] Speaker C: And now you've 180. [00:09:43] Speaker B: Yes, yes, I'm. [00:09:46] Speaker C: You. [00:09:47] Speaker B: You had the right phone then. [00:09:50] Speaker A: But. [00:09:50] Speaker B: But you were just being resistant to change, right? We changed and then realized the change is bad and we're going to change back. [00:09:56] Speaker C: No, I didn't need screen time. [00:09:58] Speaker B: You didn't? [00:09:59] Speaker C: No. [00:10:00] Speaker B: How many hours a day do you spend on the phone? [00:10:04] Speaker C: Haven't you spent about the last six months complaining about my lack of phone interactivity? [00:10:09] Speaker B: Well, I don't know what you're doing. You just don't respond to texts, that's all. I know. You could be on it all day otherwise. [00:10:16] Speaker C: No, I don't touch it. My problem, my only problem with cell phones is I have to leave it away. Like when you're watching a movie and you start IMDb and all that. What? [00:10:29] Speaker A: Oh, nothing. Some pictures from earlier that turned out kind of funny. [00:10:35] Speaker C: They did? [00:10:36] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, you'll see. We took some candid photos earlier anyway. What did you send them? [00:10:43] Speaker A: I sent them to you. [00:10:44] Speaker B: Okay. I don't look at my phone so I wouldn't know. Hey, I thought of a new name for the show. [00:10:53] Speaker A: What is it? [00:10:55] Speaker B: Because last week we talked about changing it to that's my Time. That's pretty good. But I think I like this name better. British talk. We just call it British Talk. [00:11:07] Speaker A: There is a lot of British talk. [00:11:09] Speaker B: Yeah. And if there's not British talk or talk about British customs and stuff, there's a British guy talking. [00:11:16] Speaker A: Anybody that, that, that. Anybody that tunes in hoping to hear somebody. [00:11:21] Speaker B: British opinion. [00:11:22] Speaker A: Talk about British opinions. Like. But why do they always add on that thing about a stand up special at the end? [00:11:26] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. How about British opinions? We call it that. [00:11:30] Speaker C: Smug Twat. [00:11:32] Speaker B: Yes. Yeah, something with smug in it would be good. [00:11:37] Speaker A: Can you use swear words in. I know you're joking, but can you. [00:11:40] Speaker C: Smug it out instead of hug it out? Smug it out. [00:11:43] Speaker A: Oh, I was thinking slug it out. Instead of slug it out, smug it out. [00:11:49] Speaker B: No, I like British talk now. [00:11:51] Speaker A: Let's change the name again. Let's change the name every episode. Let's just change the name of the podcast to whatever we talked about. [00:11:58] Speaker B: All right, well, I don't think we should stop trying to come up with good ideas. [00:12:03] Speaker A: No, you know, that was sarcasm. [00:12:06] Speaker B: You can always improve it. Speaking of which, I never know when to say, in that case, British talk, or should it be called English talk? I never know the difference between British and English. And when you say British. And when you say English, I always default to British. I don't know. I get mixed up. What is it? What's the rule for it? [00:12:29] Speaker C: I feel like I'm being baited here. Yeah, why should I fucking answer? [00:12:37] Speaker A: Why? [00:12:37] Speaker B: Because I just said the name of the show is called British. [00:12:39] Speaker C: Google it, you wanker. [00:12:43] Speaker B: Well, you're still doing. [00:12:44] Speaker A: But why? [00:12:45] Speaker B: Might as well just. [00:12:45] Speaker A: Why bring technology into this when you could just answer and tell us what the difference is? [00:12:50] Speaker C: Because I'm being bite. [00:12:51] Speaker B: No, you're not being baited. [00:12:54] Speaker A: I really want to know because it's a legitimate question. [00:12:56] Speaker B: I think most people would say they don't know when to say British or. [00:12:59] Speaker A: Right. [00:13:00] Speaker B: Because English. [00:13:00] Speaker A: It's called Great Britain. It's also called England, but Great Britain is also the out. It's not. It's England, but the rest of them too, you know? So, yeah, when is it British? When is it English, Mark? [00:13:10] Speaker B: And then Great Britain? I don't know exactly. [00:13:12] Speaker A: What's the answer? [00:13:13] Speaker C: When is it baiting and when is it trolling? [00:13:15] Speaker B: None of this is baiting. None of this is baiting. We're gonna ignore the fact that you're British. [00:13:19] Speaker C: Okay, very quickly. [00:13:22] Speaker B: Or English. [00:13:23] Speaker C: Great Britain is England. [00:13:26] Speaker B: I know what Great Britain is, but maybe the listeners. [00:13:29] Speaker A: Maybe. Maybe the listeners don't. [00:13:33] Speaker B: Sorry. Good. [00:13:36] Speaker C: Great Britain is England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. [00:13:43] Speaker B: Yes, I know that, but I. I'm asking. When do I say, like, oh, I was talking to this English guy the other night. Or should I say, I was talking to this British guy the other night? Night. Oh, you. Who's that guy you were talking to? Oh, it's this. Oh, he's English. Or do I say, oh, he's British? Well, I don't know how to use the two terms. Or are they just Completely interchangeable. And it's my choice. [00:14:07] Speaker C: Completely interchangeable. [00:14:08] Speaker A: Oh, but you couldn't say English if somebody was from Wales. But you could say I was talking to this British guy from Wales the other day, couldn't you? [00:14:14] Speaker B: Yeah, British includes Wales, but English does not include whales, so you can't use them interchangeably. [00:14:21] Speaker A: You can. You can use them interchangeably for England itself. England. You can be British or English. [00:14:26] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:14:27] Speaker A: The rest of them, you could be. [00:14:28] Speaker B: Scottish, But I wouldn't say the guy from Wales is British. [00:14:32] Speaker A: You'd say he's Welish. [00:14:33] Speaker B: You say he's Welch. [00:14:35] Speaker C: Well, he's British. [00:14:36] Speaker A: He's Welch, but he's also British. You could. [00:14:39] Speaker C: You could use. [00:14:40] Speaker A: You have the option. [00:14:40] Speaker B: Would he ever refer to himself as British? [00:14:42] Speaker A: Probably not. Probably not, but you could. And you'd be in the right. And anybody that told you opposite, you could fight him. [00:14:49] Speaker B: Okay, I'm just gonna say British for everything. [00:14:54] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:14:55] Speaker B: British. [00:14:56] Speaker A: Right. It's just the easiest. [00:15:00] Speaker C: Are you finished harassing me? [00:15:02] Speaker B: Why would they say, are you finished? Why wouldn't they say, like, instead of. [00:15:06] Speaker C: Saying, yes, Scandinavian, you say Scandinavian. You wouldn't necessarily be in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, or Finnish. [00:15:13] Speaker B: Right, but why wouldn't you say instead of British? Because it's Great Britain that those other countries are a part of. Why wouldn't the guy from Wales say, I'm great British? [00:15:26] Speaker A: He should, honestly. [00:15:27] Speaker B: Right. Because he's not British. British means the island. Right. [00:15:32] Speaker A: Well, British is any of them. But why wouldn't you add on the surname of Great? [00:15:38] Speaker B: He says, I'm not British myself. I'm from the Greater Britain area. [00:15:41] Speaker C: Well, do you say, I'm United States of American when you introduce yourself? [00:15:48] Speaker A: So is being British out? [00:15:49] Speaker B: No, but I. But I prefer that term, actually. But I didn't know that. But yes. I'm going to start using fly to. [00:15:58] Speaker C: Europe and just walk around going, I'm United States American. [00:16:01] Speaker A: It's like so like. Like a Welsh to me. [00:16:04] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:16:04] Speaker A: A Welshman saying they're British is like somebody in the Chicagoland area that lives in, like, Naperville saying, they're from Chicago. [00:16:10] Speaker C: Oh, no. That is one thing I hate with Chicago comedians. It's the. No, you're from the burbs. You're not really. Come on. You know, it's comedians doing that in Chicago. Hate it. [00:16:27] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. You hate that they chastise people from the burbs or. [00:16:32] Speaker C: No. Did they even think it's Christ? I got all the. All of the syrup in the bottom there. [00:16:42] Speaker B: I don't have to worry about Ricketts this week. [00:16:47] Speaker C: It's just trite. [00:16:49] Speaker B: Well, how about in today's special, Anthony Jeslenic Caligula, when he goes to crowd work and the girl tells him she's from the suburbs. Yeah, and not only. Well, when she goes on, she says she's from Rockford. Rockford is not a suburb. [00:17:07] Speaker A: No, she said Rockford. [00:17:09] Speaker B: Yes, Rockford. Own freestyle. [00:17:12] Speaker A: No, she said she goes to Brockford College. [00:17:15] Speaker B: She said Rockford. He said Brockford. Here she. [00:17:18] Speaker A: But she might go to Rockford College and live in the suburbs. [00:17:21] Speaker C: Yeah, it's doable. [00:17:23] Speaker B: Oh, I thought she said she was from Rockford. [00:17:25] Speaker C: No, she says the suburbs. And he comes back with, that's nice. And that's very specific. [00:17:30] Speaker A: Right. Because he doesn't understand that, like, geographically, people, like, around here. Like, you say from the suburbs. You know what that means? Do you know, like, which. You know which suburbs? [00:17:39] Speaker B: No, I actually don't because I. All the suburbs sound the same to me. [00:17:43] Speaker A: Me. Yeah, but, you know, like, oh, so you're not from the city, but you're from one of them. You know, one of those suburbs where to him it's like, what do you mean, the suburbs? Yeah, that's just a movie. [00:17:58] Speaker B: Why are you laughing? All right, so I see your point. All right, You. You, you made me understand it. That's all I was trying to understand, like, why you wouldn't say Great British. Because your point about you wouldn't say you're from United States of America. American or whatever. All right, fair enough. [00:18:13] Speaker C: All right, I have to process that. [00:18:16] Speaker B: And come back next week for more British talk. We could just have a. Yeah, I don't have any other British topics off the top of my head, but we'll talk next week about whether or not stores in. Here's another one. The United Kingdom, right? [00:18:37] Speaker A: Yeah. What is that? [00:18:38] Speaker B: Or Great Britain in the United. No, wait, I can't say. [00:18:43] Speaker A: England is like our podcast. They have too many names for themselves. [00:18:47] Speaker B: Exactly. Well, there are people in England. Stores in England will still accept the Euro. Next week on British Talk. [00:18:58] Speaker C: I think United Kingdom is just with the island bit missing, but I could. [00:19:03] Speaker A: Right. [00:19:03] Speaker B: Great Britain could be, you know, the Philippines. [00:19:08] Speaker A: But then what do they call. What do they call the U.S. virgin Islands? [00:19:11] Speaker B: Could be Great Britain. [00:19:12] Speaker A: When you include Puerto Rico, is that the greater. [00:19:15] Speaker B: Yeah, we don't have that. [00:19:16] Speaker A: The United States of America Land area. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Yeah, land area, exactly. [00:19:21] Speaker C: No, United Kingdom does include Northern Ireland. So it's interchangeable with Great Britain then. [00:19:27] Speaker B: And Wales. Wales is in the United Kingdom. [00:19:30] Speaker C: All of them. [00:19:31] Speaker B: Scotland all of them. [00:19:34] Speaker A: All of them. [00:19:35] Speaker C: The Orkneys, the Isle of Wight, the Isle of Man. [00:19:38] Speaker B: Why don't the Scottish fight for their independence or the Welch fight it? [00:19:43] Speaker C: Because independence is stupid. We need one world government. [00:19:50] Speaker B: And that. That government should be run by the British monarchy. [00:19:57] Speaker A: Right. [00:19:57] Speaker C: The more countries. Wasn't it John Lennon that said, imagine there's no countries? I do that every day. [00:20:05] Speaker A: Why? [00:20:06] Speaker B: Because you live in the United. You're from the United Kingdom. [00:20:08] Speaker C: No, because you. [00:20:09] Speaker B: There are no countries. It's all United Kingdom. [00:20:11] Speaker C: Because countries are a construct of the wealthy. I think we've covered this before. [00:20:16] Speaker B: That is a good example of a social construct country. [00:20:22] Speaker C: The more countries you have, the more aggravation. [00:20:25] Speaker A: I agree. I was thinking about that for the first time when I was doing some traveling last June. I'm going through all the steps that I have to take, and I'm thinking, like, don't I live on this earth? Like, can't I just go from where I'm standing right now, you tell me I can't just go stand over there now. You know, I have to, like, prove who I am just to go stand there. [00:20:43] Speaker B: In some places, they won't let you stand. [00:20:45] Speaker A: Right. [00:20:46] Speaker C: Some of these hillbillies, you go, my country. I love my country. It's like, well, you don't love freedom. Then when you came out of the womb, someone came and said, this guy, is this now? [00:20:59] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, he can renounce his citizenship. [00:21:03] Speaker A: I was at the. I was at the Chicago. I was at the. [00:21:05] Speaker C: What if I want to go everywhere. [00:21:07] Speaker B: Be a free agent? [00:21:08] Speaker A: I was at the art museum on Monday, and I was noticing that they, like, a lot of different artists. They'd be like, this artist Russian. This artist is from this country. This artist from this. Finally, it's like, who? What does it matter what country they're from? You know? [00:21:21] Speaker B: Well, it gives us some context. [00:21:22] Speaker A: Yeah, I understand what it means. Yeah, right. Like, what their, like, point of view is. But this. These particular things, I guess I should have said had nothing. Like, these are just, like, photographs of the person. You know, I'm thinking, what do I. He's an artist. This person's just an artist. They're an artist that lives in this world. You know that. Because that. What I feel like that does is fodders people. People's beliefs in, like, oh, well, Russians have the best artists. Like, well, also maybe. And I'm just using Russia as an example, but, like, maybe Russians just put their best artists out. Like, gave them more time to, like, put a magnifying glass on them more. It doesn't mean you have better artists. And either way, who cares which country? Like, so you tell me, if you stepped over this line, all of a sudden you lost that artist. [00:22:10] Speaker C: Yeah. Nationalism is incredibly seductive because it gives you a sense of belonging. But that sense of belonging is also a sense of not belonging to these other people. [00:22:21] Speaker A: To the rest of the world. [00:22:23] Speaker B: Yeah, the entire rest of the world. [00:22:25] Speaker A: You're really limiting yourself to this one area and identifying with that took me. [00:22:29] Speaker C: It took me a long time in my life to realize it's a soccer. It's a soccer bet, buying internationalism, waving flags, blah, blah, blah. It's all divided. [00:22:41] Speaker B: Even. Even down to the team sport level. Is that what you're saying? [00:22:45] Speaker C: Yeah, sports is a funny one, because I thought about that. You kind of need. [00:22:51] Speaker B: You do need sanity. [00:22:52] Speaker A: Yeah. You play into it just for that. You play because. Because without, without, like the. That's the only. That's. That's an example of like, where the boundaries work. But that's for entertainment. Like, that's for fun. Just like going to see a movie. I'm willing to suspend disbelief, you know, to watch a thriller in which things that would never happen happen. You know, Same thing with sports. I can pretend for a minute, you know, like, yeah, like, hey, we're from this area. And so I want these guys to win because we all agreed that they're our guys. [00:23:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:23:20] Speaker A: You know, and those guys over there, they're not our guys. So we, our guys have to beat those guys. [00:23:24] Speaker C: Yeah. That's when I kind of went off sports and didn't really feel follow it so much anymore because I'm like, well, I'm just making up. [00:23:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:23:31] Speaker C: I'm using my own brain. I'm tricking myself right into this. [00:23:35] Speaker A: Right. [00:23:35] Speaker C: So now I still watch my. I still can't not watch motorcycle racing. But what I'm watching it for now is more the spectacle. Like my, my. My missus spends every Sunday screaming at the tv, the packers should win. [00:23:54] Speaker A: They're terrible. [00:23:55] Speaker C: And I'm like, don't you just. I showed it. I showed us something on screen the other. I was surfing around and someone had this T shirt that said, I just. I just hope both teams have fun. And I go, I'm going to get you that for Christmas. Yeah. You know, gives me the better. [00:24:15] Speaker B: Wear that on Sundays. [00:24:16] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:24:16] Speaker B: Give her some perspective. [00:24:18] Speaker C: But like, you know, for the motorcycle racing that I watch, I'm looking at the spectacle of. [00:24:22] Speaker A: Because you're a fan of. You're a fan of the Sport now rather than just the individual. [00:24:28] Speaker C: And I always. I always wind my old lady upon my. Well, Sport Invent's okay as long as it goes down to the final whistle, to the last. Last kick, to the last race, whatever. And she's just like, no, I need. I need packers to be 20 points up by the end of the first quarter, and then I can relax and enjoy the game. You mean it? Enjoy the game. [00:24:51] Speaker B: You know, got a lot of emotional investment in this thing. [00:24:56] Speaker A: It's interesting, though, you know, well, being different points of views and how you get there. [00:25:01] Speaker C: Yeah. You know, she's just like, I'm not happy till they're 20 points up and ghosting. [00:25:06] Speaker A: Right. [00:25:06] Speaker C: And then I enjoy the ride. I'm like that. I'm just. I walk away at that point. [00:25:11] Speaker A: That's funny. When I'm watching the. The Buffalo Bills play and they're 20 points up, I'm. That's when I'm most unrelaxed. Just waiting for that lead to dwindle. Oh, yeah. Well, you've been. It's a lifetime of lessons. [00:25:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:25:22] Speaker A: At that school. [00:25:23] Speaker B: Yes. [00:25:24] Speaker C: Talking of patriotism, what about the New England Patriot? Yeah, Patriotism. They're just resurgent. [00:25:32] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, yeah. [00:25:33] Speaker A: Very exciting. [00:25:34] Speaker B: I'll say that. We didn't expect it. [00:25:36] Speaker C: You've been almost too quiet about it in a funny way. [00:25:39] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't, you know, I don't want to get ahead of myself. I hear that. [00:25:44] Speaker A: I know. I know how you feel. Yeah. [00:25:46] Speaker B: Going to enjoy each week and each game and see where. What happens if they. [00:25:50] Speaker C: If they make the super bowl the best. If I make the Super Bowl, I'm going to want that Buffalo Bills, I'll. [00:25:55] Speaker A: Be wearing it because I don't want. [00:25:56] Speaker C: It to walk around his house. [00:25:59] Speaker B: They would not be in the super bowl together. [00:26:02] Speaker A: No. But if they're from the same mark saying the Patriots make the super bowl, he wants the shirt that he to try and jinx. Well, just fuck with you, I'd imagine. At least I. I remember. [00:26:12] Speaker C: I remember going to one of Sean Cole's good Super bowl parties one time and I rocked up in a Buffalo Bill shirt. And you were so head up and tense that the New England Patriotists were in it. You were like. You just looked at me and went, what the. Did the Buffalo Bills have to do with anything? [00:26:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:26:31] Speaker B: I felt like you were doing it to piss me off. [00:26:34] Speaker C: You know what super bowl that was? That was the Janet Jackson Knox. [00:26:38] Speaker A: Hey, remember that one? Yeah. [00:26:40] Speaker B: Is that the Eagles Patriots one? [00:26:42] Speaker C: I think so. Yeah. [00:26:43] Speaker A: I think Yeah, I think you're right. [00:26:45] Speaker B: Yeah, that was crazy. [00:26:47] Speaker C: And I think Patriots had to come from behind. So you were Mr. Tetchy for most of the match. Yeah, I think so. [00:26:55] Speaker B: Yeah, they did. They won on the last second field goal. But the thing that was most surprising about that Janet Jackson breast exposure was the size of her breast. [00:27:06] Speaker A: You know, why, why is that surprising? [00:27:09] Speaker B: She had a very small breast. [00:27:12] Speaker A: You think so? [00:27:12] Speaker B: Yes. [00:27:13] Speaker A: I didn't remember it being small. [00:27:14] Speaker B: That was what I took from that. She had a much smaller breast than she presented her herself to have. So I think maybe it was a wardrobe malfunction. [00:27:24] Speaker C: Well, someone, the infamous Carl Slubkowski, who we're both familiar with, made a very good point. The following day, the day after that Super Bowl, Michael Jackson's trial began. [00:27:39] Speaker B: It did. [00:27:40] Speaker C: Yes. And he said rather, maybe she was taking one for the team, like. [00:27:46] Speaker B: Oh. Trying to deflect attention from. From her brother. [00:27:49] Speaker C: Yeah, the debt. The Monday after that super bowl was the Michael Jackson trial again. And all America is talking about is his sister's tits. [00:27:59] Speaker A: If that's the case. Wow, great, Great move. [00:28:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Really? I mean, that is, you know, family. [00:28:07] Speaker A: Yeah, that's. That's really looking out for your own. [00:28:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:10] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:28:12] Speaker B: Wow, that's deep. [00:28:14] Speaker A: What was the. What was the Michael Jackson trial about? What did he do? [00:28:18] Speaker B: Are you kidding? Oh, I meant to talk about that last week on last week's show when Ian Edwards made that Michael Jackson joke and said, if you, if you saw that documentary and still listen to Michael Jackson's music, you are a piece of. I like how he said piece of. [00:28:40] Speaker C: That was good, but it was a good tag. But if you hadn't seen the documentary. [00:28:44] Speaker B: You can still keep listening to it. [00:28:47] Speaker C: And then didn't he say, that's why I haven't watched it? [00:28:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:28:50] Speaker B: He won't even go near HBO in case it pops up and then he can't watch it. Then again. That was really good. Yeah. [00:28:57] Speaker C: Yeah. I've had some heated exchanges about Woody Allen because of that, because to me, Woody Allen is greatest comedic filmmaker of all time. But you obviously can't walk around saying that anymore. [00:29:09] Speaker A: Why? What did he do? [00:29:11] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't remember. Yeah, well, yeah. How about R. Kelly? Are we. [00:29:20] Speaker C: He made one song. [00:29:22] Speaker A: He was never making Michael Jackson level music. [00:29:24] Speaker B: Yeah, no, but I think you could. [00:29:28] Speaker A: Easily not listen to R. Kelly's music. Whether. Whether you know or don't know about his other listen. [00:29:32] Speaker B: You're not going to get me here to defend. [00:29:34] Speaker A: I think you could put the closet songs away. [00:29:36] Speaker B: I'M not here to defend R. Kelly. [00:29:38] Speaker C: That you're talking to different levels. [00:29:41] Speaker A: Yeah. Michael Jackson. [00:29:43] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:29:44] Speaker A: Completely different animal. [00:29:46] Speaker B: All right, I want to walk that back about the Michael Jackson. About Janet. What I said about Janet Jackson. [00:29:53] Speaker A: You don't want to wait till next week? [00:29:54] Speaker B: It was just surprised. Yeah. You know why they would do that? Just. Yeah, I want to walk that back. [00:30:07] Speaker C: Well, like I say, you were sitting on the couch, Mr. Tetchy, the whole time anyway, so. Yeah, I was probably in a heightened state of emotion. [00:30:14] Speaker B: Very heightened. Yeah. [00:30:16] Speaker C: Vinny. Vinny Terry. That was the guy, right? [00:30:19] Speaker A: Vinny Testaverde. [00:30:20] Speaker C: Vinny. Vinny Vincent. Vinny Terry. What was his name? [00:30:24] Speaker B: Adam Vittieri kicked the field. Yes, he did. [00:30:27] Speaker A: Adam Vinateri. [00:30:30] Speaker B: I guess I just think that if they were gonna expose a woman's breast that on purpose that it would be. It would have been a bigger breast. [00:30:38] Speaker A: I don't feel like it was a small breast, though. [00:30:41] Speaker B: I'd have to go back and look at it. It seemed much smaller than. [00:30:45] Speaker A: But she was wearing a big shirt too. [00:30:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:48] Speaker C: Almost seems like a man's breast for. What'd you call it? [00:30:55] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:55] Speaker C: Perspective, maybe. [00:30:56] Speaker B: Yeah. But it seemed like maybe not even a female breast. [00:31:01] Speaker C: I remember it when it clearly happened. I think everyone was bullshitting. And all of a sudden Emily Deareses goes, that was a tit. [00:31:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:12] Speaker C: Someone literally went. [00:31:13] Speaker B: That's what the entire world did. [00:31:15] Speaker A: Right. That's kind of how it happened. Where I was too. [00:31:17] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:31:18] Speaker B: And where everybody was. [00:31:19] Speaker A: Yeah. Like the four people in the room that were looking at the TV in the moment said to everybody else. That was like talking to them. Hold on a second. Rewind that. [00:31:29] Speaker B: I guess what I, what I'm saying is I would expect when that, when that, that material came off that a big boob would have flopped right out. [00:31:38] Speaker C: Of that, you know, like a comedic effect. Boing. [00:31:42] Speaker B: Boing. But there was really nothing there to even so that. That. Why would they do that? Right. Unless American knee shooter was going to flop out of there. [00:31:54] Speaker C: What was America talking about? That's all I'll say. [00:31:56] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:31:57] Speaker B: They would have been talking about more. [00:31:58] Speaker A: Of one of those all time mysteries. [00:32:00] Speaker B: Boing. [00:32:01] Speaker A: Right. [00:32:02] Speaker B: Nothing. All right, we done. Let's just skip the comedian thing today. We could still call it the Anthony Jeselnik episode, but we don't. We'll just skip it. We mentioned his name. We talked. We said something about one of his bits. [00:32:20] Speaker C: Wait, no, I got some notes. Tell you what, my notes are dropping off. [00:32:24] Speaker B: Your notes are changing barely. [00:32:26] Speaker C: Barely three quarters of a page. On Giselle. Nick. [00:32:30] Speaker A: It was a short special, though. Only 40 minutes. [00:32:32] Speaker B: Thank God. I love that. [00:32:33] Speaker A: That's what I was thinking, too. Right? [00:32:35] Speaker B: Not because of what I thought. Just that's. That's. That's enough. [00:32:38] Speaker A: That's. I. I had the same thought. I was like, oh, thank God. Especially this morning. 40 minutes. Oh, thank goodness. [00:32:45] Speaker B: Yeah, thank God. It was an hour and 19. [00:32:47] Speaker A: Seriously, that's. You and I were thinking this. [00:32:50] Speaker B: That's a movie. [00:32:51] Speaker A: Opening that up, like, come on, come on. Under an hour. [00:32:56] Speaker B: And I watched it on YouTube, so I even had a couple ads to sit through, but it wasn't that bad. Ah, is that where you guys watched it? [00:33:02] Speaker A: I did. I didn't have any ads, but I have YouTube Premium. [00:33:06] Speaker B: Oh, you do? What does that cost? [00:33:07] Speaker A: It's something like 15 bucks a month, and I need it for my piano shows because I use a lot of drum tracks on YouTube, so I know. [00:33:15] Speaker B: I get them through the premium. [00:33:17] Speaker C: Don't you do an audio grabber and just download the. [00:33:20] Speaker A: Yeah, so what I do. When I started doing this, the first song ever did this with was Aha's Take On Me. I just had this thought one day of, I'll bet somebody out there has ripped the drum track from Take On Me. And I can access it through my iPad, which plugs into my PA system, and I can play the drum track and then play the live synths with it and sing along to it. And because the drum track to that song is very iconic, you know, you recognize it right away as soon as the song starts. And it worked is that changed everything with our dueling pianos thing. So, of course, then I'm limited to who has made in some. And some of the. Some of the songs I want to do, nobody's made a drum track for. So I have since figured out how to. I've downloaded some DJ software, figured out how to strip the drum tracks from any song I can find on online. I can just, like, go to YouTube and, like, download the song like you're saying Mark. And. And then I can strip the drum track, and then I post that back onto my own YouTube channel for me to use when I'm playing live in front of people. So the YouTube Premium, with no commercials, I can. [00:34:26] Speaker B: It's like your backing band. [00:34:28] Speaker A: Yeah. The thing is, with YouTube Premium, you can. You can still hear the audio after you exit out of the app. So I can. With my iPad, when I'm playing live in front of people, my iPad's in front of me. I can hit the link that I. That I'll put into a Google Drive document, and that takes me to the YouTube page that I need that plays the drum track, and then I can go back and then bring up the lyrics or the chords or whatever else I need for the song and be able to read those while hearing the drum track that I'm playing along with. [00:34:57] Speaker B: All I want to know is how much it costs. $15 a month? [00:35:01] Speaker C: Yeah, it's a bit pricey. [00:35:04] Speaker B: Can he afford it? [00:35:07] Speaker A: Why would he, though? I mean, unless I wouldn't be buying it if I didn't need it for, like, my actual act, what I do. [00:35:13] Speaker B: But that is saving you a tremendous amount of money. It is. It is a traveling band for 15amonth, basically. [00:35:18] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:18] Speaker B: Right. [00:35:19] Speaker C: I think with that, you can. Because I used to be able to. I had a couple of plugins that you could download YouTube, which makes it easier, you know, more portable, blah, blah. And I think they. They blocked it all. [00:35:31] Speaker B: No way. You have YouTube Premium? [00:35:33] Speaker C: No, I don't, because I've still been looking for another downloader. But anyway, I think you get downloads with it, though, right? That's it. Yeah, that's well worth the. [00:35:44] Speaker A: Yeah, I can download. I can. There's no ads, because can you imagine if, like, in between, like, in the middle of a drum track, I'm like, you know, playing September, but Earth, Wind and Fire, and all of a sudden a Home Depot egg comes on? [00:35:55] Speaker B: Yeah, that's funny. [00:35:56] Speaker C: Did I tell you about that rental at Newport one time where this couple of young lads are gonna do rap songs? And one's just like, yeah, just hit play when I say it on this and turn the ringer off. So halfway through, the phone starts ringing. He's up on stage and the fucking phone starts ringing. So I'm looking at him like, what do I do? He's just, let it go, Let it go. And then he starts again, and literally 30 seconds later, his phone rings again. [00:36:24] Speaker B: Somebody just keeps calling it. [00:36:25] Speaker A: Yeah, put that on airplane mode. [00:36:28] Speaker C: Jesus Christ. [00:36:30] Speaker A: Come on. It must have been the first time he's done that. [00:36:33] Speaker C: When people rock up here and they're like, yeah, I'm gonna play it from the cloud. I'm like, it's gonna go wrong then. [00:36:39] Speaker A: Yeah, you're gonna have a bad time. [00:36:41] Speaker C: Yep. Come on, let's just do the bloody comedy thing. [00:36:46] Speaker A: Let's do the bloody comedy thing. Okay. [00:36:49] Speaker C: There's not much to say, really, is. [00:36:50] Speaker B: Well, I'm. [00:36:53] Speaker A: I'm interested to hear what both of. [00:36:54] Speaker B: You think about this guy, Anthony Jesel. This is when was this special 2013. Oh, okay. [00:37:00] Speaker C: We're like stuck in 2013. [00:37:02] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:37:03] Speaker C: Groundhog Day of comedy. [00:37:04] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Caligula. I don't really understand why he called it Caligula. I mean, I know that Joe came up, but it wasn't. Why would he call the show Caligula? [00:37:15] Speaker C: Caligula was a very degenerate. Like. [00:37:18] Speaker B: Oh, he's Caligula. [00:37:19] Speaker C: Yeah, I think. [00:37:20] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:37:22] Speaker B: Okay, that makes sense. Have you ever seen the film? We talked about it a little bit last week, but have you seen the film Caligula Bits and Bobs? [00:37:28] Speaker A: No. [00:37:28] Speaker B: Yeah, no, it was X rated when it first released. [00:37:31] Speaker C: It's really notorious being filth. [00:37:34] Speaker B: Filth. And also for being just a very bad movie. Over the top movie. But I saw it recently and it wasn't very filthy. I mean it was, it was depraved. I will say that there's a couple very depraved scenes that you cannot believe. So that's a good. I think that's a good word to describe Anthony Jeslenk. How do you say it? [00:37:57] Speaker A: Jeselnik Jessel Neck. Jeselnik Jessel Nick. [00:38:02] Speaker C: Do they say his last name or just his first name? There's a montage of people who keep. And it said their name over and over. [00:38:09] Speaker A: Yeah, they were saying his last name. [00:38:10] Speaker C: Were they? [00:38:11] Speaker B: Jesel Neck. Before we go, I, if we can just. I just want to finish that point about the Janet Jackson thing. Okay. If, for instance, say it was Mark Wahlberg on stage, right, performing, and somebody ripped away Mark Wahlberg's pants, right. To expose his genitals, I would expect Mark Wahlberg to be very well hung. [00:38:35] Speaker A: Right? [00:38:37] Speaker B: A very well hung. No, not because of the buggy knife. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. Not because that. Just his face and his whole lead me to believe he's very well endowed. [00:38:49] Speaker C: Oh, is he? He's a Southie like you, Right. [00:38:52] Speaker B: He's from, he's from Boston. From Dor. And if they ripped away his pants and what was there was a very tiny child sized penis, I would be shocked. I would be really shocked. Right. And that's what I'm trying to say about the Janet Jackson thing. When they rip. When it ripped off the cloth and everything, there was almost nothing there. [00:39:14] Speaker A: Yeah, but you're, you're saying this after you just said you're going to go back and look, but you haven't. I think if you look again, you'll re reassess. [00:39:25] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:39:28] Speaker B: Maybe we all just have different. [00:39:29] Speaker A: Maybe I'll be able to get past. [00:39:30] Speaker B: What the size is. [00:39:32] Speaker C: Who are you, like Ross Mayer? [00:39:34] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah, maybe it's maybe. [00:39:36] Speaker B: What are you saying? Some kind of pig objectifying women? [00:39:42] Speaker C: I'm not saying anything. I'm just letting your mouth do the talking. [00:39:46] Speaker A: I think you say it. [00:39:47] Speaker C: Yeah, I think you're. I think you're saying plenty for us all. [00:39:51] Speaker A: Don't need to say much over here. [00:39:54] Speaker C: Just letting you go. Letting you rip. [00:39:56] Speaker B: Well, I just thought I'd bring in that last analogy because I don't think you guys understand what I'm trying to say. I'm not saying I wish Janet Jackson had bigger breasts. I don't care about the size of her breasts, okay? I'm not. I'm not thinking about them or attracted to them in any way. I'm just saying when the cloth was removed, I thought that there would be a different breast there than was there. Just like if you pulled Mark Wahlberg's pants off and. And he had a very small penis, I would think. I wouldn't have thought that. [00:40:28] Speaker C: Man, you. You are trying so hard to walk this back that it's moonwalking at this point. Bringing it around to Michael Jackson. [00:40:36] Speaker B: I feel like I have walked it back. [00:40:38] Speaker C: Yep. [00:40:39] Speaker B: Okay. [00:40:39] Speaker C: At the end, you can just tell me which bits to cut out. [00:40:42] Speaker B: Okay. No, leave them all. Oh, I need the glasses. Can you throw me the glasses? What happened to the glasses were a thing and now they're not a thing? [00:40:50] Speaker A: Which ones? [00:40:52] Speaker C: I only needed them for Viz. This has a small font. The twos are his. [00:40:56] Speaker B: I think I've got a. I'm going up to a two. I think I'm going to two and a half soon. Well, how high do they go at the dollar store? [00:41:06] Speaker C: I think they go to about. No, I'd be making it up. [00:41:10] Speaker B: I got it. I got it. [00:41:14] Speaker A: Nice. [00:41:16] Speaker B: All League. 1993. Cape and League. I can't even get to him. All right, so the Anthony Jeselnak falls under the category or in the genre of mean white. [00:41:38] Speaker C: Edgelords is what the kids call. [00:41:40] Speaker B: Oh, they're edgelords. Is that really a term? [00:41:43] Speaker C: Yeah, I love it. [00:41:47] Speaker B: Is that a new term? [00:41:48] Speaker C: I think it's newish. Do you know when it comes. [00:41:51] Speaker A: I haven't heard. Well, I'm sure I've heard it, but. [00:41:53] Speaker B: How would you know it? [00:41:55] Speaker C: Because comedy, it's. [00:41:56] Speaker A: We work in a comedy club. [00:41:57] Speaker B: Yeah, Edgelords. He's an edgelord. Who are some other edgelords that I should be familiar with? [00:42:04] Speaker C: I mean, edgelords. A very open Mikey thing, isn't it? You know I'm gonna tell you the truth. Like, Ricky Gervais is now edge. Edge. Lording, obviously, a lot. Mean. [00:42:14] Speaker B: It's just mean. [00:42:16] Speaker C: No, I don't think. See, this is the Jeselnik thing. If we can get into it. [00:42:22] Speaker B: Let's go. [00:42:23] Speaker C: I see more than just. I see like a child going, do I shock you? Than a mean person. [00:42:30] Speaker B: Yes, I would agree with that. [00:42:32] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:42:33] Speaker C: I don't think he's. [00:42:34] Speaker B: No, I don't think he. I think he's. He's created a mean character. [00:42:38] Speaker C: Yeah, he's got the arrogance. [00:42:39] Speaker B: Oh, the character. I don't know who he really is, but this is clearly a character that he's trying to, you know, create. [00:42:46] Speaker C: I would say he's more arrogant and he's more like that, you know, like I say, like a child. [00:42:52] Speaker B: It's like, oh, no, this is all ironic. This is all ironic. Yeah, right. We agree on that. [00:42:58] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [00:42:58] Speaker B: This is. He's. This is all ironic. It is no different than, you know, when some comedians will, you know, talk about kicking a woman in. In her vagina or something. Like Khalil comes to mind. Although when Khalil does it, he's. It's not ironic. [00:43:15] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. [00:43:15] Speaker B: Khalil is. He's saying, I would kick this woman in her behind or whatever. [00:43:20] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:43:21] Speaker B: When Jezelnick says it, it's. It's. Hey, yeah, come on. It's. So then. Then what is it? If it's. Why are you doing this character, you know, that jokes about rape and, you know, people with disabilities and, you know, lesbians. [00:43:43] Speaker C: Molestation. [00:43:44] Speaker B: Molestation. Right. So, like, what. You know what I mean? Like, but these people like it. They want to hear this kind of mean humor. [00:43:55] Speaker A: He got a standing ovation when he came out on stage. [00:43:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:59] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. He's got a cult. I mean, that's for sure. But, yeah, that's what I was thinking. I wasn't even thinking of the act so much as I'm watching it. I am thinking, what's the point? Like, what's. Yeah, what is the point of this? [00:44:13] Speaker B: Exactly. That's what I'm thinking, too, because he. [00:44:16] Speaker C: He has. I mean, he self references. He keeps referring to. We're all in on. He's. He's almost. He is pretty fearless. But he has enough reference points where you, like, he's checking in. Like, we're all. We all know this is a joke, right? [00:44:31] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It's all very, you know, glint in. [00:44:35] Speaker A: The eye from doing a little research, I guess. He. When he first started stand up, he was Trying different things. One of them more like physical comedy. And it fell absolutely flat on the floor. Just bombed. And he said, I'll never do that sort of comedy again. He couldn't find himself. And then he wrote a joke where there was a twist halfway through, similar to a lot of the jokes in the special. And that got a reaction. He said, that's my ticket. That's what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna write a bunch of those. And he was off to the races. [00:45:08] Speaker C: Yeah. Cause I've heard of him a lot. You know, people talk about him as in the top tier, but I've never watched him until literally today. And yeah, everyone's always on about the edge, the darkness, blah, blah, blah. [00:45:22] Speaker A: And when he came out, when this special came out, I remember there's a whole bunch of friends of mine were just like, you got to hear this guy. This guy is. I've never heard anything like it. You know, he's just like, he's. He's way out there and he's, you know, he's filthy. But it's a joke when he's. It's dark humor. It's funny. It's like nothing anybody else is doing right now. And I remember tuning in and being like, oh, they're right. This is, this is great. [00:45:44] Speaker B: This guy, this is a long time ago. [00:45:46] Speaker A: He knows, oh, this is 12 years ago. [00:45:48] Speaker B: I know. [00:45:49] Speaker A: So I'm like 30 years old, you know, and so I was kind of curious seeing it again, how these jokes hold up. I'm like, I can't wait to hear some of these zingers one more time. [00:45:58] Speaker B: And so how did it play the second time? [00:46:02] Speaker A: It did not have the same effect as it did the first time. [00:46:06] Speaker B: That's because you were younger. [00:46:08] Speaker A: I think it's because I was younger. I think it was also maybe it's definitely because I was younger. Because even if, Even if the time, let's say you took 42 year old me right now and put me back then in 2013, when the climate was different around the world and I watched that special, I don't think I would have gotten the same. But, you know, that's life experience. So you go through life and you end up working at a comedy club. You've seen stuff like this, however, is that because people have done his stuff since then? You know, like he's inspired people and I've kind of seen it. Like we were saying before at the bar, wasn't it? We were talking about the. The who's Tommy, you know, you're saying it's not one of the greatest rock operas. I'm not saying it is, but I said it was. You said it was, but. But you couldn't see the appeal. Right. [00:46:54] Speaker B: I just said I don't like it. [00:46:55] Speaker A: Right. Yeah, exactly. Right. And so you're saying, well, why. And I, I personally, I don't think it's anything special either. But what we were talking about. Well, think about like in that time, like when this came out. This is the first one of these you've heard. You know, it was available. Same thing with Anthony jessel. Nick in 2013 with Caligula. [00:47:13] Speaker B: I don't like any rock operas. [00:47:15] Speaker A: Yeah, it was a flash in the pan. The rock opera thing. I don't. I think there's a reason they stopped doing it. [00:47:20] Speaker B: I don't like any musicals. [00:47:22] Speaker A: Oh, really? I love a good musical. You got to see a good music. [00:47:25] Speaker B: I wish. I appreciate you never seen Les Mis. Yeah. [00:47:28] Speaker A: Good. Just good? [00:47:30] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, but I. The story, I like. I don't need any of the same. [00:47:38] Speaker A: Just tell me the story without. Yeah, you don't have to sing the story to me. But west side Story. Oh, my God, the songs on that. Yeah, Come on. [00:47:47] Speaker B: They're good. I don't know. I prefer. No, no singing. [00:47:50] Speaker A: Yeah, I guess they each their own. [00:47:52] Speaker B: But is this. I don't know, I mean, like, is this like what you're saying? You know, when I was an adolescent, I watched Andrew Dice Clay and he was saying all those filthy things. I just thought that was so amazing. [00:48:06] Speaker A: Right. Same thing with these. [00:48:07] Speaker B: Saying all these filthy things. [00:48:09] Speaker C: Shock and filth have diminishing returns. You get the initial hit and then you're just gonna. Yeah, you're never gonna get it again. [00:48:16] Speaker B: You didn't see too many middle aged people sitting in that audience. [00:48:19] Speaker A: No, you didn't know. And once you hear one of the jokes once, it's gonna lose all of the resonance that. Because jokes like this, it's all about like the last three words of the joke, you know, that turn the previous 15 words into something different. And once you know those last three words, you can't hear the joke the same again. [00:48:43] Speaker C: Yeah. Did you start to guess the punchlines as you. [00:48:47] Speaker A: Yes. [00:48:48] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, yeah, it's funny. There's a couple of other things that. How he held the mic. [00:48:53] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:48:54] Speaker B: Oh, I knew you were gonna say, I couldn't wait. [00:48:56] Speaker C: Drove me. [00:48:57] Speaker B: That's ice cream cone Mike, right? That's your ice cream cone. [00:49:00] Speaker C: No, no, no. It was, it was, it was down here. It was like waist level. I mean, how he was holding. It wasn't so bad. [00:49:08] Speaker B: No, you held like he was very dainty. [00:49:10] Speaker A: Yeah. Like this. [00:49:10] Speaker B: Like an ice cream. [00:49:11] Speaker C: I didn't see the ice cream. I just saw where it was. Which was absolutely nowhere near his mouth. [00:49:17] Speaker A: He's doing this. He's like using his. His palm to. However, it was a cordless. It was a cordless. Right. Using his palm to rest the butt of the mic and with his index finger stretched up in his thumb like. Like he's holding a. Like a quill. [00:49:30] Speaker C: I was so annoyed. I was so annoyed at how far away it was from his mouth. I didn't even notice how. You know what I mean? I couldn't have that much anger. Couldn't have. [00:49:42] Speaker A: Threshold. [00:49:42] Speaker C: And then the Christopher Walken cadence. Did you. Did you ever think. [00:49:47] Speaker A: No, I didn't notice that. [00:49:49] Speaker C: You go back and watch it. [00:49:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:49:51] Speaker C: And look how he talks. And you're like, he's almost channeling Christopher Walker cadence and stuff. And then, you know, the pacing and the eyes and the creepiness. I mean, I didn't like it, but I knew what it. It was part of it. I knew it was part of the performance. Very slow delivery and obviously the smuggler. I love the smugness. [00:50:13] Speaker B: Why? [00:50:15] Speaker C: That was like me. That was like a surf watching the king at work. The smugness. [00:50:21] Speaker B: Yeah. It's like. [00:50:22] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:23] Speaker B: Right in your wheelhouse. [00:50:24] Speaker C: Yep. Did you understand the joke where he says, I think my friend Jeff. [00:50:35] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:35] Speaker C: Be gay? [00:50:36] Speaker A: That was one of the only smart ones, I thought. [00:50:38] Speaker C: But I'm bad with names. [00:50:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:39] Speaker C: Can someone explain that? [00:50:40] Speaker B: Like a Hedberg joke. [00:50:41] Speaker A: Yeah. Because he. Cuz he's saying he knows his friend is gay, but he's not sure if his name is Jeff or not. [00:50:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:50:47] Speaker A: This is my friend. I know he's gay. I think his name is Jeff. So he's saying, I think my. [00:50:52] Speaker B: I'm pretty sure my friend Jeff is gay. [00:50:54] Speaker A: I don't know if his name is Jeff or not. [00:50:56] Speaker B: No. But I'm terrible names. [00:50:58] Speaker A: Right. Still don't get it because you're assuming he's saying like, I. I had this friend named Jeff and I think he might be gay. Right. That's way it's set up. But what he's saying is I have a friend that's gay and I think his name might be Jeff. [00:51:14] Speaker C: But he says, I think my friend Jeff is gay. [00:51:18] Speaker A: Yeah. But he's not sure if his name is Jeff. He's like, I think his name is Jeff. Yeah. [00:51:24] Speaker B: Who cares Price. [00:51:26] Speaker A: Why would. [00:51:28] Speaker C: Because I Never. Don't get Joe. [00:51:30] Speaker B: I mean, I like. [00:51:30] Speaker C: Yeah, no, I thought, I was thinking that was the joke that you just described, but then I don't find it funny enough to think. [00:51:39] Speaker A: Right. [00:51:39] Speaker C: Yeah, so maybe that's, you know, what these are. [00:51:42] Speaker A: It's not a good joke. [00:51:45] Speaker B: He is like a filthy Catskills comic, right? Like, he's like a filthy Henny Youngman type, you know, I'm going to degrade my wife, but really degrade her, you know, like, it's all like formula jokes, right? It's garbage to me, right? Like, just in terms of comedy, I. [00:52:12] Speaker A: Had a feeling, right? [00:52:13] Speaker B: Like it's garbage. This stuff is fine. The jokes are, are kind of, you know, clever, right? But like, who cares, right? Like, this isn't you. This is some contrived character, right? It's all mean and the way you're like, you know, strutting around all smug and devil may care attitude, like, get the out of here. You know, like terrible. Like, get it out. [00:52:45] Speaker A: I had a feeling. It's knowing what I. I've never seen your stand up Bill, but. No, never will about it. Through Mark's interpretation. [00:52:58] Speaker B: Don't listen to him because he doesn't understand the nuances. [00:53:01] Speaker A: You prefer the dirtier side of stand up? [00:53:03] Speaker B: No, at times, yeah, for sure. [00:53:05] Speaker A: But. And as far as I can understand, you are a nihilist. [00:53:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:10] Speaker A: So you. But. So when I, When I recommended the special last week, I thought, I wonder how this is gonna go. I wonder if Bill's gonna like it or not. Because of the filth aspect, you know, I thought it could really go one of two ways. And while I was watching it, I had my answer. Yeah, I knew right away, it's like, oh, Bill, he's gonna rip this apart. [00:53:26] Speaker B: I don't mind filth. Obviously I don't mind filth. And I don't mind, like trying to convince a character, convince a crowd that you're this awful person. Like, I love that. But that's not what this guy's doing. He's creating a whole Persona around this, not just, you know, doing a one off. That's terrible, right? Like he's gonna go every city to city just saying this shit, right? Like, this is like his bottom of the barrel fucking 80s comedy club garbage, as you'll find, you know. [00:53:57] Speaker C: Wow. [00:53:58] Speaker B: Yeah. But I did like a couple of his jokes. No, I, I didn't like any of them. I didn't laugh once. I thought his. The only thing I would say complimentary is, well, there are a couple things I Mean. He's. [00:54:16] Speaker C: Good hair. [00:54:17] Speaker B: Good hair. He's handsome. He's in command, clearly. Right. [00:54:21] Speaker A: Like. [00:54:23] Speaker B: The jokes are impeccably written, all that. Right. But I like this crowd work. I didn't like any of the other stuff, but I liked his crowd. I like how he did crowd work. [00:54:34] Speaker A: Right. [00:54:35] Speaker B: Like, he's like, what's the most important thing in relationship? Like, communication. Wrong. [00:54:38] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:54:39] Speaker B: You know, like. [00:54:39] Speaker A: Yeah, he was just good. [00:54:41] Speaker B: He was good that way. Like, I'd like to see more of who this guy is. He's not this guy, you know, who. Who. [00:54:47] Speaker A: Who. [00:54:48] Speaker B: None of this. It's all just. [00:54:49] Speaker A: Well, that's probably why he. He kind of after that, like, that was his peak. That was his apex right there. Was that special. And he has come out with three or four since then. He's done other things, but he's never been. He's just been on a decline, even. [00:55:02] Speaker B: On a decline, even. [00:55:04] Speaker A: Even according to his fans. I was doing a little bit of looking at it, and people are like, yeah. He just never really, like, got back to this level because he's all. He has this one. He's this one trick pony. [00:55:14] Speaker B: Do this again. [00:55:15] Speaker A: There's one thing to do, and it's. After you see it, you go, ha, I get it. [00:55:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:19] Speaker A: Onto the next thing. I was thinking about. [00:55:21] Speaker C: Shock has diminishing returns. [00:55:23] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:55:24] Speaker B: To do something else. Shocking. You can't do the same thing. This can't just be it. [00:55:28] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I guess that was just it. Like, that's the. That's everything he brought to the table. [00:55:34] Speaker B: But I thought beneath it, beneath this Persona or whatever, like, there. There may be a good comedian in there. He's smart, clearly. Like, he's found an angle. But, like, I would. I would. I want to know who this guy really is and what he really thinks. I don't know if it'd be funny or not, but that. I think he probably has something there, but he's doing this shit, you know? [00:55:57] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:55:57] Speaker C: Are you gonna walk this back next week? [00:55:59] Speaker B: Just thinking. [00:56:00] Speaker A: Oh, let's talk about where it was shot. It was shot at the Vic. It's another special that we. Yeah, that's a lot of Vicks. So that. [00:56:09] Speaker B: This was. [00:56:10] Speaker A: We should make a tail. [00:56:11] Speaker B: No, this was the. This was the Chicago theater. [00:56:15] Speaker C: It was the Vic. [00:56:16] Speaker A: It was the Vic. [00:56:16] Speaker C: You could clearly see it was the Vic. [00:56:18] Speaker B: I feel like we had this argument. [00:56:19] Speaker A: Yeah. Every. A couple weeks ago, you maybe. [00:56:22] Speaker B: This does not look like the Vic. [00:56:24] Speaker A: Do you think the Chicago theater is the Vic and vice versa? That Might be the answer. [00:56:29] Speaker C: Have you ever been in the Vic Theater? [00:56:31] Speaker A: Sure. Have you ever been in the Chicago theater? [00:56:33] Speaker B: I saw Lords of Acid with you there. [00:56:34] Speaker C: Oh, yeah? Yeah. [00:56:35] Speaker B: Praga Khan. What a show. 1999. [00:56:42] Speaker C: Only EDM he's ever seen. Oh, yeah, I dragged him to a Lords of Acid show. [00:56:46] Speaker B: When was my cup of tea? Was not my cup of tea about 2,000, probably. [00:56:52] Speaker C: You said you liked the friendly vibes of the dance culture as opposed to the aggressive vibes of rock. [00:56:58] Speaker B: I didn't remember any friendly vibes at that show. Lords of Acid. [00:57:04] Speaker A: It's so accusatory. How dare you? [00:57:07] Speaker B: I don't remember that. [00:57:09] Speaker C: You clearly don't remember that, old man. [00:57:11] Speaker B: No, I don't. [00:57:14] Speaker A: Wait, was that. You clearly don't remember that comma, old man or you clearly don't remember that. [00:57:18] Speaker C: Old man is the comma. [00:57:20] Speaker A: Oh, it's like the joke we were. [00:57:22] Speaker B: Just trying to figure out before. [00:57:24] Speaker C: Where does the comma go? All right, well, it was the Vic, so you're wrong. I wrote down the 19 comedians in our first series. Oh, you did? [00:57:37] Speaker B: Oh, that's awesome. [00:57:38] Speaker C: Ever gonna first series? [00:57:40] Speaker B: I thought that was. That's two seasons. I've been telling people we're in season three. [00:57:44] Speaker C: That's season one. That's how Kastos numbers them. [00:57:49] Speaker B: Oh. [00:57:50] Speaker C: So it went one to 19, and then it started again because I. [00:57:54] Speaker B: Because you stood. You started it. [00:57:55] Speaker C: I started season two, I think so. [00:57:58] Speaker B: We have 19 episodes in season one. [00:58:00] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:58:00] Speaker A: Who was our last one in season one? Joe Pera. Right. [00:58:03] Speaker C: No, you're prolific, but Biglia Bigley was our last one. [00:58:07] Speaker A: Oh, Joe Pera was the first one of season two. [00:58:08] Speaker C: Possibly. [00:58:09] Speaker A: Okay.

[00:58:33] Speaker B: Anthony Jeselnik. What? [00:58:36] Speaker C: Nate Bargazi. [00:58:37] Speaker B: Oh. Oh, what was the first one? Yeah, the last one. That's amazing. [00:58:42] Speaker A: We're. [00:58:43] Speaker B: We are prolific and, you know, it's about work ethic. And the three of us, we have clearly have a good. [00:58:49] Speaker A: Yeah, we've been showing up. We've been. [00:58:50] Speaker B: We show up even, like, you know, like today, like, I've covered. [00:58:54] Speaker A: I'm still here. Yeah. [00:58:56] Speaker B: A couple other times. [00:58:56] Speaker A: I've been sick of it. [00:58:58] Speaker B: And you're still here most of the time. I'm sick. [00:59:00] Speaker A: I'm in here most of the time. You have Covid. You're still here. [00:59:02] Speaker B: I'll still come. I won't let that stop me. Won't wear a mask either because I don't want to inhibit show. [00:59:10] Speaker A: Yeah, you don't want to look dumb in front of everybody. [00:59:11] Speaker B: In front of you guys. So keep that off too. Yeah, well, so are we going to go around? I. I gave mine. You. You give him. I give him zero. [00:59:23] Speaker C: How many rape jokes? [00:59:25] Speaker B: Yeah, I was going to say we're. [00:59:25] Speaker A: Going to do rape jokes. I give him zero rapes out of three because there was three rape jokes in his. In his set. Oh, Mark, did Heather watch this with you? No, thank. Thank God. [00:59:36] Speaker C: Because I watched the first five minutes and she was like, should we watch the thing? And I'm like, no, we won't. [00:59:42] Speaker A: Yeah, I was hoping that I was. [00:59:45] Speaker B: Working on an impression of him, like earlier, but I don't know. I think I've lost it. Can you guys do an impression of him? Very. Just, you know, you said Christopher Walken, like. [00:59:54] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:59:55] Speaker B: I've spent the last two years looking for my girlfriend's killer. I still can't find anybody. How's that? [01:00:09] Speaker A: I spent the last two years looking for my ex girlfriend's murderer. Nobody will do it. [01:00:16] Speaker B: No, I read the actual joke. You just butchered it. [01:00:19] Speaker A: You messed it up. [01:00:20] Speaker B: No, I wrote it verbatim. [01:00:22] Speaker C: Neither impression was very good. [01:00:23] Speaker B: Well, let's hear yours. [01:00:25] Speaker C: No, I can't do one. [01:00:26] Speaker A: Why? Why can't you? Because you're British and English. [01:00:28] Speaker B: Spent the last two years, you. I'm sorry. [01:00:32] Speaker C: You got that. [01:00:32] Speaker B: Try to do an American. [01:00:33] Speaker C: If. Think about how walkin talks, right? Walkin. Yeah, kind of put. Does a few words pause. Few words pause. If you did that, I spent. [01:00:43] Speaker B: Gonna leave the coffee in the cab. [01:00:48] Speaker A: The coffee. [01:00:48] Speaker B: That's my walking. You don't understand. You're wasting coffee. [01:00:57] Speaker C: That sounded like Seinfeld. [01:00:58] Speaker B: It did? [01:00:58] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:01:01] Speaker B: You know what that was? That was Christopher Walken in Deer Hunter. [01:01:06] Speaker A: No, the famous Deer Hunter scene. [01:01:11] Speaker B: Oh, no, I can't remember. [01:01:12] Speaker A: She's pissed off about the coffee in the cab. [01:01:15] Speaker B: You're gonna leave the coffee in the cab. You don't understand. You're wasting coffee. [01:01:27] Speaker C: When are we gonna hunt some deer? [01:01:32] Speaker B: That's not bad. It's pretty good. This is like in the trip. This is like Steve Coogan and Rob Bridenman. Bridenman, that. The. The scene I just did was Christopher Walken in the sketch. Ed Glosser, a trivial psychic on Saturday Night Live. You ever see that? One of the greatest sketches ever. He's. It's like his character from the Dead Zone. If you ever saw that where he. If he touches you, he will, like, foresee some awful thing in your future. And so they have all, like, Rob Schneider combined, and he, like, touches his hands like, you're gonna leave coffee in the cab. Yeah, right. Because I remember this. It's nothing like. [01:02:16] Speaker A: Right. Yeah, yeah. We should have one of these. We should have a Patreon episode about all of the people that you didn't think were going to be good comedic actors on SNL that turned out to be. Yeah, people like the Rock. [01:02:28] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [01:02:29] Speaker C: There's been a couple here. Walking originated Cowbell. Right. [01:02:34] Speaker A: Yeah, he was in that sketch. [01:02:37] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, he was in that scene. He's in that sketch. All right, so you're. You're. I'm giving him zero rapes, Christian. How many rapes? [01:02:46] Speaker A: Zero rapes. [01:02:47] Speaker B: No rapes. [01:02:48] Speaker C: I'm giving him one rape. [01:02:50] Speaker B: Wait, zero rapes is good. Is bad. [01:02:53] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:02:53] Speaker B: Yeah, right. One rape is also not very good. But you're giving him one rape. Why are you giving him a rape? [01:03:00] Speaker C: For the. Apart from the holding of the mic, I think technically he's an accomplished comedian, and I can't really pick. The. The worst fault I can pick is it doesn't really do anything for me personally. [01:03:17] Speaker B: Did you laugh once out loud? [01:03:19] Speaker C: I did laugh a couple of times. Yeah. [01:03:21] Speaker B: Did you laugh over there? [01:03:22] Speaker A: No, I didn't. But I've heard I've seen this special before, so that doesn't really say much. However, I want to change my vote to one. Right. Because I like the way that he held the mic. [01:03:31] Speaker B: I hated the way he held the mic. [01:03:32] Speaker C: Wait. [01:03:32] Speaker B: Oh, wait. Are you saying you like the way he held the mic, Mark? No. [01:03:36] Speaker C: No. [01:03:37] Speaker B: You don't like how far down it was. [01:03:38] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:03:39] Speaker B: But you still gave him a rape. Because he's an accomplishment. [01:03:41] Speaker C: I'm amazed they could even record that special. The goddamn mic was at no point near his mouth. [01:03:46] Speaker B: Yeah. It's an interesting way to do it. [01:03:49] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:03:50] Speaker B: You know, I can't think of anyone else that holds it like that. Like, almost like a Bob Dole. [01:03:55] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:03:56] Speaker B: Clenched arm at the side. [01:03:58] Speaker C: It's almost like he didn't want to be holding it. Like, Jesus, you know, Someone take this. In that case, get a goddamn Madonna mic. [01:04:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:04:08] Speaker A: Or use the mic stand. [01:04:09] Speaker C: Yeah. Well, no, but then he can't do the creepy pacing. [01:04:13] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. What if you got a mic stand on wheels? Has that been done? Has anybody ever had a mic stand on wheels? They just kind of push along with them. [01:04:23] Speaker C: It would be distracting, wouldn't it? [01:04:25] Speaker B: I like that idea. You might be onto something. [01:04:27] Speaker C: What about a bo? No boom mic. And then you just have a guy. [01:04:30] Speaker A: Follow you around the st. [01:04:34] Speaker B: Like a boom mic. Wherever you're try to be, wherever your face is, you could be constantly trying to throw them off in the mouth. A couple times for sure. [01:04:42] Speaker C: Oh, dear. [01:04:43] Speaker B: I like that. You ought to think about putting little wheels on the bottom of mic stands. [01:04:46] Speaker A: Yeah, we should do that. [01:04:48] Speaker B: Could be a money maker. All right, so you heard it here. Two Mark gives it a rape. Mark likes one rape, and Christian likes one rape. And I don't like rape. No rapes for me. Anthony Jeselnik now, next week. [01:05:04] Speaker C: So, in conclusion, this was not special. [01:05:07] Speaker A: Is what was not special. [01:05:10] Speaker B: This was. This was not special. [01:05:12] Speaker A: This is a perfect example of a comedy special. Aging poorly. [01:05:17] Speaker B: This, this or this Jezel neck. [01:05:19] Speaker A: This Jeselnik. This was hot as hell when it came out in 2013. This was so hot. And to look at it now, 12 years later. [01:05:27] Speaker B: Jazzlynak what is that? Is that. That looks like a Hungarian horse. [01:05:30] Speaker A: I looked it up. Yeah. [01:05:34] Speaker B: Is he Jewish? I'm only curious because of the terrible jokes he had. [01:05:37] Speaker A: I don't think so. [01:05:37] Speaker C: Not if he's a Slovakian. [01:05:40] Speaker B: I'd feel better if he was Jewish. Okay, so Nazi Youth be following up this program? [01:05:52] Speaker A: I'd be surprised. At least we'll have some followers. [01:05:58] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, it'd be nice to have a. [01:06:00] Speaker B: What are the metrics saying right now about the show? There's the ratings. [01:06:04] Speaker C: The metrics aren't saying anything. The metrics are sitting in the corner of the room, weeping. [01:06:12] Speaker B: Well. [01:06:15] Speaker C: You were going to come with a. A promo idea. [01:06:19] Speaker B: I didn't think of anything. Yeah, see, I tried thinking about it, but then I didn't come up with anything. And I probably made a sandwich. [01:06:27] Speaker C: Yep. [01:06:27] Speaker A: What kind of sandwich? [01:06:29] Speaker B: Cheese, probably. [01:06:30] Speaker A: Yeah, cheese. [01:06:32] Speaker B: Cheese and tomato. [01:06:34] Speaker A: Cheese and tomato. [01:06:36] Speaker C: It's an ostentatious approach to sandwiches. [01:06:39] Speaker B: Oh, I don't know. I don't eat meat. [01:06:42] Speaker A: That's like a pizza. [01:06:44] Speaker B: Hey, well, never mind. I'll tell you this. We're out of here. [01:06:48] Speaker A: Well, what is it? [01:06:49] Speaker C: What we doing, though? We are doing Kinison. [01:06:53] Speaker B: Kinnison what? [01:06:54] Speaker A: Breaking the rules. [01:06:55] Speaker B: It's called. Type Kinison into Google and play whatever comes up. Break the rules is what it's called. [01:07:02] Speaker A: Breaking the rules. [01:07:03] Speaker B: How come every week right before we record, I have to send the text, like, what are we watching? [01:07:08] Speaker A: Because you don't remember? [01:07:10] Speaker B: Because I don't write it down, Sam. [01:07:15] Speaker C: To be honest, I forget it. And then when I'm editing the episode. Oh, quick whiz to the end. Grab the thing and I write it. See how it's written in a. In a different pen. I write it at the top of my Brent Weinstein. [01:07:30] Speaker A: I don't forget it because I care. [01:07:31] Speaker B: I want to see your notes. What is called breaking the rules. [01:07:34] Speaker A: Breaking the rules. [01:07:36] Speaker B: Okay. It'll be fun. Actually, I like doing classics. I just don't like mean white comedians from now. [01:07:47] Speaker C: She doing Elaine Boozler. [01:07:49] Speaker B: Yeah, shit like that. [01:07:51] Speaker C: Judy to Newton. [01:07:54] Speaker B: Yeah, get into all that shit. We should do one season, that's all. We watch all the HBO half hour comedy hours. There was probably like 10 or 12 on from that Kevin Meanie. We were talking about him the other night. Remember him? Kevin Meanie? He was great. [01:08:08] Speaker C: A true Meanie. [01:08:10] Speaker B: Oh, he was nice. He was a sweet guy. All right, well, is that. Is that all? [01:08:16] Speaker C: That's it, I think. [01:08:18] Speaker A: Yeah, that's it. [01:08:19] Speaker B: All right.
