Episode Transcript

[00:00:08] Speaker A: All depressing conversation in the waiting room. [00:00:11] Speaker B: Yeah, but. [00:00:12] Speaker A: Well, you two were probably having a fun one. [00:00:14] Speaker C: We're having a train talk. [00:00:15] Speaker B: A train talk. [00:00:16] Speaker A: Should have saved that for this. [00:00:17] Speaker B: I know, but I couldn't wait. I've been thinking about him on that train. [00:00:20] Speaker C: Good stuff. [00:00:21] Speaker B: He took a trip similar to mine. [00:00:23] Speaker A: And did you have the same experience? Oh, yeah. We get to take. Talk to people. [00:00:27] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah, I had a good time. Yeah. I met some weirdos. [00:00:30] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:00:31] Speaker C: I was telling Bill about one guy that sees the number six everywhere. He was saying even that there's an X behind you. Those two swords on the wall behind you over there, that's an X. And the x is the 24th letter of the Alphabet. And 2 plus 4 is 6. You see? Right. [00:00:49] Speaker A: Where was he on his way to? [00:00:51] Speaker C: I don't know. I didn't ask. I put my headphones on. [00:00:55] Speaker B: Did you find that you didn't want the trip to end or were you ready to get off that train? [00:00:59] Speaker C: I could have gone longer. [00:01:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:01:00] Speaker C: Yeah. I think the next time I'll take it all the way to San Francisco or the little town next to it where it ends up. Because then I didn't realize. I thought that because we had gotten out in Reno, I thought that we were going through the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the Rocky Mountains, but we missed the Sierra Nevadas. Those are west of Reno. I guess those happened as the train was pulling up to us. [00:01:24] Speaker B: Yeah, so you missed those. But you did get some great mountains, though. [00:01:26] Speaker C: Oh, my God. Yeah. Was not lacking in the scenery for an entire day. Going through the Rocky Mountains. [00:01:33] Speaker A: Is the train really labor going up? [00:01:35] Speaker C: Like, you know. No. It's funny because I was just. I was commenting at one point, I said, you know, it doesn't even feel like we're going up an incline. However, I know at one point I saw a sign in one of the towns that we had passed that we were at 4,500ft. [00:01:49] Speaker B: And then slow incline. [00:01:51] Speaker C: Yeah. Go up a mountainside. Right. But I know that at one point we're 9,000ft. So we were like. We had another 4,500ft to go. And we're going along. And I was commenting, like, look at. There was a stream, you know, going the opposite way. So obviously the water is going downhill and it was moving pretty quickly. However, it didn't feel like we were going up. But then when the guy came over the intercom at the end of the trip and he kind of did like a play by play of what had happened, he was talking about how we had come back down, and I noticed that around that time, my ears were popping. [00:02:24] Speaker A: So was it like Snow Piercer? Did you have to work your way up the train as the. As the. As your class increased? [00:02:34] Speaker C: Yes, it was just like that. [00:02:35] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:02:37] Speaker B: Meaning people get richer as you go through the train cars. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:02:42] Speaker A: Like in the movie Snowpiercer. [00:02:44] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:02:44] Speaker B: I don't remember that movie. Who's in that? Pierce Brosnan's. [00:02:48] Speaker A: Tilda Swinton plays the evil queen of the thing, I think. Who's at the end of the train? Who's God, basically. [00:02:57] Speaker B: Morgan Freeman. [00:02:58] Speaker C: Morgan Freeman. [00:02:59] Speaker A: No, it wasn't Ben Kingsley. [00:03:00] Speaker C: I want to say I've never seen the movie. [00:03:02] Speaker B: Good Guy. [00:03:03] Speaker A: You've never seen Snowpiercer? I thought you were both, like, movie nerds. [00:03:07] Speaker C: I am. [00:03:07] Speaker B: Yeah, I am. [00:03:08] Speaker C: Yeah, I am. But I never watch any movie that starts with the word snow. No, that's my rule. [00:03:13] Speaker B: I always confused Snowpiercer and the band Snow Patrol. Remember that? [00:03:17] Speaker C: That's the other thing, too. [00:03:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:03:18] Speaker C: I'm always like, wait, is this the band or is this a movie? [00:03:20] Speaker B: Yeah, it's confusing. [00:03:22] Speaker A: Snow Piercer. You got. I think it's on Hulu or. [00:03:28] Speaker C: I don't have Hulu money right now. [00:03:29] Speaker A: Oh, Ed Harris. [00:03:30] Speaker B: Oh, I like it. [00:03:31] Speaker C: You can't afford Netflix. [00:03:33] Speaker B: You know who looks like Ed Harris? Who in your life, you know, looks. Oh, my God. Jesus. Looks, doesn't he? [00:03:40] Speaker A: Yep. [00:03:40] Speaker B: Amazing. [00:03:41] Speaker A: Everyone looks like someone. You're Brad Pitt. No. Yes. Peter Stormare. Storm. How do you pronounce it? [00:03:50] Speaker B: Stormari. [00:03:50] Speaker A: Stormari. [00:03:52] Speaker B: Best Stormari performance. Fargo. When him and Steve Buscemi. You've seen Fargo the movie? Best movies. [00:03:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:03:59] Speaker B: Him and Buscemi pick up those prostitutes, and they're in that motel. [00:04:03] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:04:04] Speaker B: Both having Adam in the. In the beds. The best. The best. [00:04:08] Speaker A: I like him more in. I like. I mean, they give him ridiculous dialogue in Lebowski. [00:04:17] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:04:17] Speaker B: I can't remember. [00:04:18] Speaker A: We are going to. You up. You remember at the end? [00:04:23] Speaker B: I can't remember, but. [00:04:25] Speaker A: And they're nihilists. Ooh, it all comes around. [00:04:29] Speaker B: What? [00:04:29] Speaker A: Peter Stormeyer plays a nihilist. You look like him, and you are a nihilist. [00:04:34] Speaker B: I'm not a nihilist. [00:04:35] Speaker A: Holy shit. [00:04:37] Speaker C: But you've got that tattoo. [00:04:39] Speaker B: Which one? [00:04:39] Speaker C: This one says, I'm a nihilist. Oh, yeah. [00:04:41] Speaker A: I guess I destroy everything. [00:04:43] Speaker B: Explain that. [00:04:48] Speaker C: Funny you should bring up Fargo. The guy that we are talking about today was in an episode of the TV show version of Fargo. [00:04:55] Speaker B: Was he really? [00:04:56] Speaker C: Yep. [00:04:56] Speaker B: I didn't see his season four. I didn't look up his credits. [00:04:59] Speaker A: Chris Rock. [00:05:00] Speaker C: Yep, yep. That was season four. [00:05:02] Speaker B: I never watched the show so far. [00:05:04] Speaker C: I guess he's got a really small part. [00:05:06] Speaker B: I didn't see the point in the show, but seen the movie. Why do I need to see the show? [00:05:09] Speaker C: Completely different. [00:05:10] Speaker B: Completely different. [00:05:11] Speaker C: It's so good. You got to watch it. [00:05:12] Speaker A: Got to watch Fog. [00:05:14] Speaker B: It's just too much to watch. [00:05:15] Speaker C: I know there is. It's overwhelming. [00:05:17] Speaker B: This is too much. [00:05:17] Speaker C: I know. You know, we were just talking about White Lotus out there. Sorry. I mean, even that one when that came out. Cuz, like, Severance had just made it. [00:05:25] Speaker B: I still haven't seen Severance. [00:05:26] Speaker C: Right. And I finally just finished that. And people like, you gotta watch White Lotus. I can't. [00:05:30] Speaker B: You gotta watch this. You gotta watch. You gotta watch Snowpiercer. You gotta watch everything. [00:05:35] Speaker A: Fargo was so engrossing. You know the last one, the John Ham one, he was so evil in it. Heather actually took to flipping him off when he appeared. [00:05:45] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:05:46] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:05:47] Speaker B: Really interactive. [00:05:49] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm like, you know, he's not really. [00:05:52] Speaker B: Flipping off John Ham. John Ham was the bad guy. [00:05:54] Speaker A: Yeah. And then kind of against type. Yeah. In the last Fargo, Jon Hamm was supremely fucking evil. [00:06:00] Speaker C: Yeah. He was a bad dude. [00:06:02] Speaker A: And Heather just one time when he comes out, just flipping him off. [00:06:07] Speaker B: Fictional characters really transporting her. [00:06:11] Speaker C: So good. Jon Hamm is. [00:06:12] Speaker B: Yeah, all right. Maybe I will see that show. [00:06:15] Speaker C: It's really good. [00:06:16] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:17] Speaker A: What's good about Fargo is it's. It's like a showcase for villains, right? [00:06:22] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:06:23] Speaker A: Because I do it after the last one I was mentally going through, I was like, okay, Jon Hamm is by far the most evil. But like, how do you rank him against, like, the brother, the Italian brother, or the Irish nurse? Or like, like, you know, because they had smaller parts. [00:06:46] Speaker C: Oh, you mean in the same season? [00:06:48] Speaker A: No, they were all in different, like, season. So there was the Chris Rock one, there's the Irish Nurse. Right. [00:06:56] Speaker C: That's the only one. I didn't get into the season four. [00:06:59] Speaker A: Okay. [00:06:59] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:07:00] Speaker B: You didn't see it. [00:07:01] Speaker C: I watched the first episode or something, maybe the first one and a half. And I was like, without giving me all the best, is it worthwhile? [00:07:09] Speaker A: The premise of 4 is there's two gangster groups in Chicago, and as part for some weird reason to keep peace or something, they have to give. They. They have to give the eldest son to the other gangster group and they go live with them. The eldest son goes and lives with. So Chris Rock, who's obviously like the black gangster. His son has to go and live with this other gangster. I can't remember the reason why now, but the. Oh, who's the other guy? The guy is. He's the genius actor, Jason Schwarzman. Oh, he is the other one. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, I think people are lining up to be in Fargo, right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. They just do one every now without going. [00:07:59] Speaker B: Going into all of it. [00:08:00] Speaker A: They're all different. [00:08:01] Speaker B: What does it have to do with the movie? [00:08:02] Speaker C: Not well, not nothing, really. I mean, like, geographically, a little bit. You know, like, there are overlaps for. From the movie. And the thing about the TV show is each season is it stands by itself. It's a completely different crew, completely different story. So you can watch one season and you can move on with your life. [00:08:22] Speaker B: Are there any through characters that are in everything? [00:08:24] Speaker C: That's the thing. Kind of. There's overlapping timelines and stuff. [00:08:28] Speaker B: Like White Lotus. [00:08:29] Speaker C: Exactly. Yeah. Right. [00:08:30] Speaker A: I think Chris Rock is meant to be a young kid in one of the previous ones. [00:08:36] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:08:37] Speaker A: You don't make the right. [00:08:38] Speaker C: Yeah, they don't. They don't hit you over the head with it. They don't come out. Right. Out and tell you. But you can, like, you can see something be like, oh, I think I see, like, you know, in a different timeline, this is this person. [00:08:47] Speaker A: But I mean, it's got, like, Billy Bob Thornton is a bad guy in the first. [00:08:50] Speaker C: That was one of my favorites. [00:08:51] Speaker A: David Thewlis. David or Peter Thewlis. [00:08:55] Speaker C: Well, okay, so then isn't the second one with. I don't want to say too much in case Bill's gonna watch it now. [00:09:02] Speaker B: I'm going to watch it. [00:09:02] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:03] Speaker C: Is the second one with the married couple or. He kind of does whatever she wants. [00:09:07] Speaker A: Yeah. And that's Thewlis. [00:09:08] Speaker C: Okay. Yep. [00:09:09] Speaker A: Because it's. [00:09:10] Speaker C: I don't know the names. [00:09:11] Speaker A: Ewan McGregor. [00:09:12] Speaker B: He's in it. [00:09:12] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:13] Speaker B: Oh, my God. [00:09:14] Speaker C: The cast in the program, they don't. [00:09:16] Speaker A: Miss the queuing up. [00:09:18] Speaker B: Who's the showrunner of this thing? Who's the brains? Operations. Not the Cohen brothers. [00:09:22] Speaker C: The Cohen brothers are behind it. [00:09:23] Speaker B: They are. [00:09:24] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:09:24] Speaker A: But they're not the show runners. [00:09:25] Speaker C: I don't know if they. [00:09:27] Speaker A: The guy who does the hard yards is this other guy. He's like a famous TV drama guy. [00:09:33] Speaker C: I'm not sure. [00:09:34] Speaker A: And also, Jenna Gephardt looks like Mary Elizabeth Winstead. [00:09:38] Speaker C: Which one is that? [00:09:41] Speaker A: She's the one that kind of leads Ewan McGregor's idiot brother. [00:09:45] Speaker C: Okay, I see it. [00:09:47] Speaker B: My wife thinks that I have a homoerotic love for Ewan McGregor. [00:09:55] Speaker A: Well, do you? [00:09:56] Speaker C: Yeah. Do you? [00:09:57] Speaker B: I don't know. I like him. [00:10:00] Speaker A: I like it. [00:10:01] Speaker B: I like his movies. [00:10:02] Speaker A: You should watch Fargo, cuz you get double the yuan. [00:10:05] Speaker B: Really? [00:10:05] Speaker A: Yeah. He's. He's like a. A together brother and an idiot brother. In. In the one thing. [00:10:15] Speaker B: You see me, I keep staring at my finger. I jam my. See how swollen my pinky is? [00:10:20] Speaker C: What were you doing? [00:10:21] Speaker B: It's like. It's a weird thing. I was playing basketball yesterday. Ah. And jammed it. [00:10:25] Speaker C: Ball. [00:10:25] Speaker B: They threw me a pass with this ball. And a bam. [00:10:27] Speaker A: Do we need to climb out while you go get some ice? [00:10:30] Speaker B: No, no. [00:10:30] Speaker C: You need to tape it. [00:10:31] Speaker B: It's tingly. I was thinking it's so tingly, maybe I could do the stranger. You know, the stranger. You know, where a man. [00:10:39] Speaker C: Oh. [00:10:40] Speaker A: Oh. You lie in your arms. [00:10:41] Speaker B: Yeah. It's like. It's like somebody else's hand. It feels like. [00:10:44] Speaker C: Yeah, give it a shot. [00:10:46] Speaker B: Yeah. Not right now. [00:10:47] Speaker A: I wonder what the term for it. [00:10:48] Speaker B: Is for the stranger. There's got to be a viz term for that. Well, we're not doing the viz. Say, we're taking a break from the viz. Viz break to all the listeners at home. But we petered out on the viz a little. Only because we weren't getting them anymore. I don't know if you were making it harder or we were getting less bright. [00:11:06] Speaker A: No, I think I just wasn't savvy with my choices. [00:11:09] Speaker B: Yeah. So we'll take a break from viz. We tried a new segment. Can Mark afford it? But I think we exhausted everything there. [00:11:20] Speaker C: Ran its courses. [00:11:21] Speaker A: It did. Okay. [00:11:22] Speaker B: You got. Oh. Oh, you got some new. Oh, my God. Those are disgusting. [00:11:29] Speaker C: Mark's showing us his shoes. [00:11:30] Speaker A: The bottom fell off on the way. [00:11:32] Speaker C: On the way here. Funny thing happened to me on the way over here today. [00:11:36] Speaker B: What happened to the Adidas? That's a disgusting men's shoe. [00:11:42] Speaker C: Oh, you know what, Mark? You inspired me. I went and I dug my Adidas out of the back of the closet and wore them on the entire trip. Yeah. Yeah. [00:11:49] Speaker B: Oh, the new ones that you never wore. [00:11:51] Speaker C: No, no, they. No, I don't. [00:11:53] Speaker B: They had a box of shoes you never wore? [00:11:55] Speaker C: No, I don't. I'm not that kind of. I'm not that kind of person. No, these ones I wore for a long time, but then they just kind of like made it to the back of the closet because I bought new shoes and I'm like, I'll go back to these So I went and dug them out, and yeah, they held up. You know the thing about Adidas, they stand the test of time. Yeah. [00:12:11] Speaker B: Quality shoe. [00:12:12] Speaker C: Quality shoe still had the arch. Oh, pretty sweet. [00:12:16] Speaker B: What. What model were they? Are they. [00:12:20] Speaker C: What's the one, the popular one that. [00:12:21] Speaker B: Starts with an S. Samba. [00:12:23] Speaker C: Samba. Yeah. [00:12:24] Speaker B: There were sambas. Nice. All right, well, no. No segments to start the show. Let's go right into our comedian of the day, Caleb Rear here, Don Huron. [00:12:38] Speaker C: Huron. [00:12:39] Speaker B: I don't want to butcher his name. Is that how you say Caleb? Huron? [00:12:42] Speaker C: It's either Huron or Huron Heron. [00:12:44] Speaker B: Huron. And we lucky to. We all were able to see it. You cannot afford hbo. [00:12:51] Speaker A: I don't know. I think I went and purchased it, so. [00:12:55] Speaker B: You did. [00:12:55] Speaker C: No, I was wondering how you got it. [00:12:57] Speaker A: 10 bucks. [00:12:59] Speaker B: Well, let me say this. [00:13:00] Speaker A: I texted Kyle. He gave me the thing. So I was like, okay, I'll be ready. I'll. I'll hit watch, Get. Get the app. Because I have the little stick thing. I got the app and I'm ready to log in, and it just starts fucking playing. So I'm like, if this has gone to Hulu or some other shit that I've paid for 14.99amonth now, stuck another 10, whatever on, I'm gonna be fuming. [00:13:26] Speaker B: I feel like if there's one app to buy, it's hbo. I feel like they have the best programming. [00:13:34] Speaker C: I'm very happy that Kyle Scanlon gave me his username and password. [00:13:38] Speaker B: Maybe you shouldn't be putting it out there that this. What is the login information for anyone that doesn't have it following now, when you guys were talking about it and you put it out there that you didn't have it, I did not respond right away with my login information. And the reason being is I don't know, only just comes on and the kids are always trying to get in and they keep changing the password at home. So I didn't know it. [00:14:05] Speaker A: Have you got the kids locked out then? [00:14:07] Speaker B: No. They don't remember the passwords. When they're logging in from different places, they text me, what's the password for the hbo? I go, I don't know. I'll give it to them. Like, that's not it. And then they change it, and then I don't know what it is. [00:14:21] Speaker C: Every time I have to log into a new device to watch something on hbo, I have to go back for. Look at text messages from like three, four years ago from Kyle. I just do a search. [00:14:32] Speaker B: It's all Kyle Scammer how do they not get wise to this when 19 different people are. [00:14:36] Speaker C: I'm sure they have an idea. But the best part is it was an audio message because he was driving at the time. So I had to listen to the whole message. [00:14:43] Speaker B: About the password. [00:14:44] Speaker C: Yeah, he tells me his password. [00:14:47] Speaker A: Why don't you just put it into the computer that you carry around with you at all times? [00:14:51] Speaker C: That takes all the fun out of it. [00:14:53] Speaker B: So did you also surf around HBO after you watched this program yesterday? [00:14:58] Speaker A: No. [00:14:58] Speaker B: Weren't interested in the programming? [00:15:00] Speaker A: No. I think I'm going to have to. Everyone keeps wanking on about slow horses and. [00:15:08] Speaker B: Task. [00:15:09] Speaker C: I keep seeing advertisements for that. [00:15:10] Speaker B: Zick pops up every time. Task with Mark Ruffalo. See as how we're always talking about women that I may be attracted. I'm not, but my wife is very attracted to Martin. Mark Ruffalo. She really. He really gives her a zing. [00:15:29] Speaker A: He's got. He's got a Mark Vanneresque quality. [00:15:33] Speaker B: Oh, I didn't think that. Well, maybe she's got a zing for Mark Vanna. [00:15:36] Speaker A: Yeah, you might want to. [00:15:39] Speaker B: Who does Heather like? Oh, who gets her hot and bothered on the tv? [00:15:46] Speaker A: What's his name? Colin Firth. [00:15:49] Speaker B: Colin Firth. Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. [00:15:52] Speaker A: He's. [00:15:52] Speaker B: He's debonair. [00:15:53] Speaker A: I think that's an older Colin Farrell or Colin Firth. Earth from the King's Speech. Yeah, exactly. And then she likes English. [00:16:02] Speaker B: We know that. [00:16:03] Speaker A: Daniel Craig. [00:16:04] Speaker B: Daniel Craig. [00:16:05] Speaker A: And I think. I'm not sure if she. She just likes him. Likes him or thinks he's hot. Is the guy from. From bloody downtown. Yeah, downtown. [00:16:24] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:24] Speaker A: You know. [00:16:25] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:25] Speaker A: He's in everything. [00:16:26] Speaker B: He looks like Colin Firth. Kinda. [00:16:27] Speaker A: Yeah. He's Firth esque. Yeah. [00:16:29] Speaker B: Geez. She's got a type, right? She like any Americans? No, not interested in any Americans. No. [00:16:38] Speaker A: And then she likes, you know. Yeah. I think most of the older rock stars she liked were all British as well, you know, Mccartneys. [00:16:46] Speaker B: So when you take her over there, she's smooth everywhere you go, everyone you run into. Well, okay, so let's talk about Caleb Huron. Model, comedian, age 30. As we know from the special. [00:17:06] Speaker A: Stop applauding people. [00:17:08] Speaker B: I know he did it right away. Said just turned 30, I'm getting older. I like it. And then he paused for the applause. I know you hate that. [00:17:18] Speaker A: Age. Marriage, kids. [00:17:20] Speaker C: Right. [00:17:21] Speaker A: Identity. Fuck off. [00:17:23] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. There. He wasn't winning me over right away. [00:17:27] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:29] Speaker B: But it's filmed in Chicago, so the first thing he says is Chicago. You know, that drives Me crazy when. Do you know where it was filmed? In Chicago? [00:17:38] Speaker A: I do. It was filmed around the corner from me at Constellation, which is around the corner for me. Yeah, it is. [00:17:45] Speaker B: It's around the corner for me. Well, it's a couple miles away from. [00:17:49] Speaker C: More than one corner out there. [00:17:51] Speaker A: Needless to say. [00:17:52] Speaker B: Here. [00:17:53] Speaker A: Needless to say, I was annoyed by. [00:17:55] Speaker B: The fact that they didn't do it here. [00:17:58] Speaker A: Well, it's not Constellations. Not even a fucking comedy jazz place. Well, it's dead now. [00:18:04] Speaker B: No, no, it's back. They did this big music festival a couple weeks ago. I can't remember what it was called. [00:18:09] Speaker A: But died like six months ago. [00:18:12] Speaker B: The thing's kicking big. [00:18:14] Speaker C: They filmed this in June of 2025. No, that's what I said on Wikipedia. [00:18:20] Speaker B: I thought it did. [00:18:21] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:18:21] Speaker A: No way. [00:18:22] Speaker B: No, I think he. I think it was referenced like. Well, maybe. I don't know. Couldn't be out this fast. Yeah. [00:18:27] Speaker C: Let me ask you. Why are you surprised? Is it because he says 2023 something in there? Right. Hey, you know what? AI is not always right. [00:18:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:18:36] Speaker B: I don't know if it is right, but the. Just looking at the. I'm trying to. I didn't realize where it was until the end when I looked at the credits. Is that how you figured it out? [00:18:44] Speaker A: No, it says film that. Constellation. [00:18:47] Speaker B: Oh, at the beginning. [00:18:47] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:18:49] Speaker B: I don't get the notes. That shag carpet. You never see a comedian standing on carpet like that. Do you notice the carpet he was on? [00:18:58] Speaker A: I mean, that's just to deaden the sound. [00:19:00] Speaker B: No, no. I mean, obviously there's carpet. Musicians perform on carpet. Like oriental rugs and whatnot. This was like a shag carpet. It was like a thick wall to wall carpet in a, you know, a bad townhome. [00:19:13] Speaker C: We put carpet on the stage here when Dale McPeek performed. And it's been there to this day. It's not shag. [00:19:20] Speaker B: This isn't shag. But it's like wall to wall carpet. [00:19:22] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:23] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:19:23] Speaker A: I think you have to for tv. [00:19:25] Speaker B: You do, because you can't have the. [00:19:26] Speaker A: Can't have the Every fucking. [00:19:30] Speaker B: But very small venue, it seems like. [00:19:32] Speaker A: I think they built the space. I mean, Jesus Christ, that end credits, when all the people involved in it and I was expecting to recognize. I recognize this. Not a goddamn person. [00:19:46] Speaker C: I was doing the same thing. I was looking at all the faces. I. I thought they showed somebody in the beginning and I thought, I can't even remember her name, but she used to perform here all the time. Things moved to New York since. But yeah. Didn't recognize a single. [00:20:00] Speaker B: When they showed some people at the. When the people they showed at the end were. Were those people doing their act in some kind of way? Remind me of the Maria Bamford one. [00:20:09] Speaker A: I thought it might be an opening comic or two that I recognized. [00:20:13] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:20:13] Speaker A: But I think it was people in the production horsing around. [00:20:16] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:20:16] Speaker A: For the. For this. [00:20:18] Speaker C: Testing out the shag carpeting. [00:20:19] Speaker B: See? [00:20:20] Speaker C: Sound comes through. [00:20:21] Speaker B: Yeah. All right, so tell us a little more about Caleb here on why you chose this and what we know about this. [00:20:27] Speaker C: It was just simply recommended to me by a few different people, similar to the Randy Felt face scenario. [00:20:32] Speaker B: Okay. [00:20:33] Speaker C: And, I mean, honestly, I was just kind of. I forgot to pick somebody before the. [00:20:39] Speaker B: Before we were recording theme. Yeah. [00:20:41] Speaker C: So I was scrambling and I remembered, oh, yeah, people told me that this guy's funny. So I looked him up and now we all watched it. [00:20:48] Speaker B: So a couple were, you know, deep into season two of this program. How are you liking his sensibilities in terms of the. The comedian season? [00:20:58] Speaker C: You're going to give me a review right here? [00:20:59] Speaker B: Let's review him. [00:21:00] Speaker A: We're reviewing the. [00:21:02] Speaker B: Reviewing his ambush choices. [00:21:07] Speaker A: Thanks. We did. [00:21:08] Speaker B: Because we started this program, you and I would take turns picking a comedian. [00:21:12] Speaker A: I mean, it's definitely better than the shot you were picking. [00:21:14] Speaker B: What? I never picked Gallagher. I didn't like it. That was him. [00:21:17] Speaker C: He picked Gallagher. Gallagher. [00:21:20] Speaker B: Well, you picked Swartzen. You didn't like Swartz. [00:21:22] Speaker A: When did you go? When did Sandler. [00:21:24] Speaker B: I picked him. I picked Sandler, Swardson. [00:21:27] Speaker A: Swartzen was terrible. Gallagher's terrible. [00:21:30] Speaker B: Bargazzi. Did I pick Bargazi? [00:21:32] Speaker A: I think maybe you picked Bargazzi. [00:21:34] Speaker B: You loved him. [00:21:35] Speaker A: Yeah. Bargazi and Sandler are good. I picked Bamford. You know what we got to do? I was thinking of this the other day. I think we hit 25 comedians, either with this one or the last one. We got to do a ranking. [00:21:49] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:21:49] Speaker B: Yeah, let's do a ranking. [00:21:51] Speaker A: So we'll all go away. We'll. [00:21:53] Speaker B: We'll do a ranking show and we'll do. [00:21:56] Speaker A: We'll discuss. We don't need to go through all 25, but I think consensus between us, we'll say, all right, we'll do our top ten. [00:22:05] Speaker B: Top ten. [00:22:05] Speaker A: No, no, top five, bottom five, top. [00:22:08] Speaker B: Five, bottom five, Top five, bottom five of all 25. Or we just do season one. Season two. Let's keep it end of, like, end of the year show. Top comedians of the season, top specials. We'll work on that. I like that. That'll be a year in review show. Also, I want to talk about this, too. I'm not happy with when we get to the end of the show and we go around say whether we liked it or. We still have not figured that out. And I was watching an episode of the great Tim Heidecker show on cinema at the cinema. You've watched this? [00:22:44] Speaker C: No. [00:22:44] Speaker B: Oh, my God, it's hilarious. Him and Hamburger or Greg Turkington do this. They review movies, right? And it's just. It's silly. It's not. They don't really review the movies, but then they rate them based on bags of popcorn, right? So if they, like, really like the movie, it's five bags of popcorn, two sodas, and then it's just. It's wacky like that. What if we do something similar? Because a lot of times we're not. It's not a kill or a bomb, it's something in between. So, like, what could we do that would create a rating system? Like three. I'm not suggesting microphones, but three. What happens at a comedy show? [00:23:22] Speaker C: Like, instead of bags of popcorn, microphones. [00:23:24] Speaker B: No, I'm not suggesting microphones. I specifically said I don't like microphones. So, like, what about like, you know, like two drink minimum? I give it a three drink minimum, a four drink minimum, five drink minimum. That doesn't even make sense. [00:23:39] Speaker C: The higher it goes, the worse it is, though. [00:23:41] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:23:41] Speaker B: That doesn't make sense to get through. But I like a rating system. [00:23:45] Speaker A: Well, come up with one. [00:23:46] Speaker B: Well, what are your ideas for it? [00:23:48] Speaker A: Every idea I've ever had is where you. Oh, we can't do that. We can't do that. [00:23:54] Speaker C: What? [00:23:56] Speaker A: I don't know. I can't think of it. I only like. I like binary rating systems. [00:24:01] Speaker B: I don't like binary. [00:24:02] Speaker A: I like. [00:24:02] Speaker B: I'm non binary. [00:24:04] Speaker A: Good, bad. That's why. [00:24:07] Speaker B: But nothing is good or bad. It's something in between everything. [00:24:09] Speaker A: That's why I always hated the music press. You know, when they would review an album, it should be. It's good, it's okay. Or it's. That's it. That's all you need. [00:24:21] Speaker B: You got any ideas over there? [00:24:24] Speaker C: Why don't you do a binary one and you do however many microphones you want to get. [00:24:28] Speaker B: We'll just do. Yeah, I'm just gonna change every time. [00:24:33] Speaker A: We'll all have a different writing system. [00:24:34] Speaker B: Yeah, I love it. That's great. And it changes every week. [00:24:37] Speaker A: It's the sort of nihilism with that nihilism. That's. That's fully nihilistic ratings. You can enjoy that. [00:24:45] Speaker C: And I'll just tally mine on the whiteboard next to me so nobody else has an idea of what I thought of it. All right. [00:24:52] Speaker B: You guys are a lot of help. All right. Caleb Reardon. Reardon. [00:24:59] Speaker A: Aaron. [00:24:59] Speaker B: I don't want to say Reardon. I don't know who's Reardon. Do you know anyone named Reardon? [00:25:05] Speaker A: There was a snooker player in the 70s called Ray Reardon. They called him the Dracula of the green bays because he had a widow's peak and he looked like Dracula. [00:25:14] Speaker B: I know Reardon. Tiger Rear. [00:25:17] Speaker C: I knew. [00:25:17] Speaker B: I used to know Tiger Reardon. Yeah, guy named Philip Reardon. Roomed with him back in the late 90s. His nickname was Tiger Reardon. Had. His feet were like crackus hams. You know, like the ham. Yeah, they were like big pink feet. [00:25:34] Speaker C: Why? [00:25:35] Speaker B: He was a big pale guy, big red feet. All right, let's take a moment to bring in our sponsor, Begain Construction for all your high end construction needs. You want a home remodeled, you want a backsplash put in, you want a high end home starting from scratch. He'll build your home by hand like. Like a carpenter called Bill Baghaine at 773-861-2717, begin construction for all your high end construction needs. Okay, so how do we do. How do we review these guys? We just launch into their acts. [00:26:22] Speaker A: I normally follow you. [00:26:23] Speaker B: Well, I didn't know anything about this fellow. Go ahead and tell us more about this fella. [00:26:27] Speaker C: He was born in a rural town in Missouri. [00:26:30] Speaker B: Love that. I love Missouri. My favorite state. [00:26:32] Speaker C: Yeah, he performed. He started doing comedy around college, I think, and then he moved here to Chicago and he performed. [00:26:41] Speaker B: Oh, he did? [00:26:42] Speaker C: Yep. Did. He must have performed here a whole bunch of. Actually, Lincoln Lodge is mentioned in the Wikipedia. Yep. He's. [00:26:49] Speaker B: He's a lodge. Was he cast member? [00:26:51] Speaker C: He had a monthly show here. [00:26:53] Speaker A: Yeah, monthly. Him and Holmes Holmes from welcome to Clatch or whatever. [00:26:59] Speaker B: Holmes, the guy we talked about last time. [00:27:00] Speaker A: No, no, Chelsea Holmes. Holmes is a they. [00:27:05] Speaker B: Oh, Holmes. Not. Not Pete Holmes. [00:27:07] Speaker C: Yeah, but it said that they just go by Holmes. [00:27:10] Speaker A: They just go by Holmes Holmes. [00:27:13] Speaker B: H O L M S. Yeah. [00:27:15] Speaker C: Yes. [00:27:17] Speaker A: So Holmes and Heron had a hit show here. [00:27:20] Speaker B: No. [00:27:23] Speaker A: And both have been back maybe once a year. I think I saw. I saw Caleb here on here not that long ago. [00:27:31] Speaker B: Do you know this man? [00:27:33] Speaker A: Not particularly well. I know him enough to say. All right. [00:27:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:37] Speaker A: But yeah. [00:27:38] Speaker B: How about you? You know this. [00:27:39] Speaker C: He looked familiar. And I couldn't figure out if it was from seeing him around here or from Fargo he was on. [00:27:45] Speaker B: Oh. [00:27:45] Speaker C: Because he was on episode four of season four of Fargo. [00:27:49] Speaker B: He looked familiar to me, too. I certainly never met him. But he looks just like the comedian John Panette. [00:27:57] Speaker A: No, Panette's been dead about 10 years. [00:28:00] Speaker B: Sure looks like. [00:28:01] Speaker C: It doesn't look like. [00:28:02] Speaker A: I know he was a legendary Zany's. [00:28:04] Speaker B: Guy, but I know legendary comedian from the right guys. John Panett. [00:28:10] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:28:11] Speaker B: Portly fellow. [00:28:12] Speaker A: Yeah, you go now. [00:28:13] Speaker B: You go now. Yeah, you do the Chinese restaurant impression. [00:28:18] Speaker A: He's a rather large guy. [00:28:19] Speaker B: He's a poor man's Louis Anderson. [00:28:21] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:28:21] Speaker B: Which makes Caleb Reardon a poor man's John Panette. [00:28:25] Speaker C: I think Caleb hearing looks more like. I don't know, the Huron looks more like. Huron looks more like there's somebody that used to be in like 90s sitcoms. He was in like Just Shoot Me or something like that. [00:28:37] Speaker B: Yes. [00:28:37] Speaker C: You know I'm talking about that carry. [00:28:39] Speaker B: No, no, but there was another guy that was in. Yeah, I know. You're talking. [00:28:44] Speaker C: One of those shows. Yeah, like Spin City or something. [00:28:46] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. He was in Groundhog Day. Remember? He's like off to see the groundhog, where they got to see you. I mean, there's only five scenes repeated 100 times. Remember when he walks out of the house, he said, off to see the groundhog. That's the guy. [00:29:00] Speaker C: Okay, I'm going to have. I'm going to look that up. I don't remember who. [00:29:04] Speaker B: He looks just like that guy who looks like John Panett who begat. Who was begat by Louie Anderson. He looks like was begat by W.C. fields. Any other overweight comedians have we already done he looks overweight comedians go. [00:29:16] Speaker A: He looks like half of the people you see at any given open mic. Leave it at that. [00:29:21] Speaker B: Are you suggesting that at open mics there are overweight gentlemen? Is that what you're saying? Half the micrs are overweight gentlemen. [00:29:32] Speaker A: Absolutely. [00:29:33] Speaker B: Well, we can talk about his weight because he talks about his weight. [00:29:36] Speaker A: Yep. [00:29:36] Speaker B: Right. [00:29:37] Speaker A: It's green lit, right? [00:29:39] Speaker B: Yes. And it made me think, you know, we see black comedians talk about being black and using the N word and all different races and different types of people. This man gets to talk about being overweight and making fun of it and being gay and making fun of it. And he also is able to make fun of all. All non heterosexual people. He has license to do that because he himself is gay. [00:30:03] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:04] Speaker C: Yep. [00:30:04] Speaker B: Which leaves us and I don't want to speak for you, but I am cisgender. [00:30:10] Speaker C: What does that mean? [00:30:11] Speaker B: I don't know, but I believe it means I like women. [00:30:17] Speaker C: Okay. [00:30:18] Speaker B: I like to make love to women. [00:30:19] Speaker C: Do you want me to look it up? [00:30:20] Speaker A: No, I think CIS means you are the gender. You were born. Born. [00:30:24] Speaker B: Okay. I'm that. I'm a man who likes to lay down with women in a sexual way, regardless who. Am I able to make fun of? Nobody. [00:30:37] Speaker C: No. [00:30:38] Speaker B: In this world, I'm not able to make fun of anyone at all because I am cisgender male. [00:30:45] Speaker C: There's always. There's somebody for everybody. [00:30:47] Speaker B: I can only make fun of you and we get. For being British. I'm not even allowed to do that. You can make fun of British people because we're Americans. This is like the Joe Rogan program. [00:30:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:58] Speaker B: I can't make fun of anybody because I'm. I lay down with women and I'm white. [00:31:04] Speaker A: Are you gonna come in wearing, like, combat fatigues next week maybe with a. Have you got a Punisher tattoo? [00:31:10] Speaker B: And what does that mean? [00:31:13] Speaker A: Litany of. [00:31:14] Speaker B: Under my Harrington. [00:31:16] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:31:16] Speaker B: No punishment. [00:31:17] Speaker A: Punisher, you know? [00:31:18] Speaker B: Yeah, I know. I know. What does that mean, though? I know. It's a movie or so. [00:31:22] Speaker A: It's what, Comic book? It's like Joe Rogan people. They have. They have Punish. [00:31:26] Speaker C: Oh, they do? [00:31:27] Speaker A: Yeah. They have Punisher stickers on the back of their trucks, which. [00:31:30] Speaker B: That means you're a Roganite. [00:31:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:31:32] Speaker B: Really? Not a Reaganite. [00:31:34] Speaker A: No, I mean, you have your Punisher thing, and then you have your. What's it? [00:31:37] Speaker B: The Calvin kissing on a. [00:31:40] Speaker A: The black stars and stripes with the one blue bar. [00:31:43] Speaker B: Yeah, That's Blue Lives Matter. [00:31:47] Speaker C: I think so. Yeah. What is Punisher? Is that a wrestler or is that. [00:31:50] Speaker B: It's a comic book character, like the Punisher. [00:31:53] Speaker C: Yeah. I was gonna say. Is it a movie? [00:31:54] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:31:55] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:31:55] Speaker C: What is the Punisher? [00:31:56] Speaker B: It means you're a maga. [00:31:59] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:00] Speaker C: Can they be exclusive? [00:32:02] Speaker B: You always hate all minorities. [00:32:04] Speaker A: You know when you see a big truck and it's like, gray. Silvery. [00:32:10] Speaker C: Yes. [00:32:11] Speaker A: With chromey rims. And you think, I know who's getting out of that. [00:32:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:15] Speaker A: And it's always someone who looks like Joe Rogan getting out of it. [00:32:19] Speaker B: Yeah. Like Goate. [00:32:20] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:21] Speaker B: Short haircut. [00:32:22] Speaker C: That's who you can make fun of. [00:32:24] Speaker B: Yeah, I can make fun of someone. [00:32:26] Speaker C: Right. There's a whole bunch of people. Go home. At your disposal. [00:32:31] Speaker B: You should go kill me. [00:32:33] Speaker A: Yeah, go. Go home and build a new comedy career. [00:32:39] Speaker B: Just on that Just attacking Joe Rogan. [00:32:42] Speaker A: Just attacking that guy and those people. [00:32:44] Speaker B: Yeah, I'll be dead in a week. [00:32:46] Speaker C: It'll be a fun week, though. [00:32:47] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:47] Speaker B: I don't know. I'm afraid of them. Well, anyway, this guy gets to make fun of so many different people and I'm jealous, you know, not because I want to make fun of those people. [00:32:57] Speaker A: You can make. You can make fun of your fellow Southies. [00:33:00] Speaker B: No, no, no. [00:33:03] Speaker C: Yeah, why not? [00:33:06] Speaker A: Working class Southies like you, you can make fun of them. [00:33:10] Speaker C: Do you have too much fondness in your heart to make fun of them? What's, what's with. Why are you shutting down like this all of a sudden? Hiding behind the microphone? [00:33:20] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:33:26] Speaker A: Shall I pick the torch up? [00:33:28] Speaker C: What do you mean pick the torch up? What is that? [00:33:32] Speaker A: If he's throwing his toys out the pram, someone else has got to talk. [00:33:35] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, for sure. Yeah. Okay. [00:33:37] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:37] Speaker C: What do you got written down for your notes there? [00:33:39] Speaker A: I think we're going to agree though, here starts off and you like five minutes in, I'm like saying, going nowhere. This is a series of gratuitous like, like thingy breaks. But then, as has happened frequently, I find with these things, it turns. And now I'm hooked in. Now I'm hooked in. [00:34:05] Speaker B: When does it turn? [00:34:06] Speaker A: It turns when it turns. When he starts talking about his mom raising him as a single. His mom raising him. And he wanted a suit and he was very right wing and reactionary as a kid. [00:34:29] Speaker C: Yes. [00:34:30] Speaker A: And didn't know why. That's the turning point after that, I think, okay, I'm on board. We're starting to hear some stuff, form an identity. You see, I don't like identity stuff. [00:34:43] Speaker C: I just like, I mean, like I'm starting to understand the person that's talking to me. And if I can understand the person that's talking to me, I can understand what jokes they're making about themselves better. [00:34:55] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:34:55] Speaker B: I don't know if this is what you're saying, but I don't just be funny. And none of it was funny up until. And this is where it shifts for me. Maybe this is the same spot when he says when he was younger, he, he didn't know he was gay yet or wasn't ready to come out and he, he just thought he was being a better Christian than he was gay. [00:35:15] Speaker C: Right. [00:35:15] Speaker B: And I was like, okay, right. And that was kind of. I kind of laughed for the first time. Like, okay, yeah. Like, because Christian people are real righteous and everything. It's his way of coming to terms with being gay. [00:35:25] Speaker A: Right. [00:35:26] Speaker B: And then he just. Then he goes into all that white trash stuff and being made fun of for being fat and saying, I have a gun. That. That crowd work. That was great. [00:35:36] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:35:36] Speaker B: Right? Where he, like, has people, like, say this and he's like, no, right? And say that now. [00:35:40] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:35:41] Speaker B: And then he ends with, I have a gun. [00:35:42] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:35:43] Speaker B: That was a great, great crowd. Were great bit. And then talking about drugs and then when he starts talking about suicide. Right. [00:35:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:50] Speaker B: I'm thinking, like, you don't really hear comedians talk about suicide and talk about it as boldly as he did. And it was awesome. Right? Like, that was. That was really impressive to me. Like, how he went right at it and he starts to go really right at things. And he seems like he gains a whole ton of confidence or the act does. And then from there, I think. Yeah, we do agree. [00:36:13] Speaker A: Yeah, it was really good as a turning point. Yeah. The mental health stuff, suicide. I've seen so many comedians try it and just fail. [00:36:22] Speaker B: Yeah. Why does it. Why do they fail at it? [00:36:24] Speaker A: And because they don't go hard enough. [00:36:27] Speaker B: Right. [00:36:27] Speaker A: Normally it's like, tiptoe around it. They like, they'll go in and it's like, test the waters. And the crowd pushes back like, oh, you could really bodge this. And then they just sort of like, forget I ever said it. [00:36:41] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:36:41] Speaker A: And this guy is. I just gonna. Okay, let's just goes right out of it, go at it, and we'll keep going at it. And I think that's why he gets away with it in the end, because he doesn't back off at any point. Yeah. [00:36:55] Speaker B: And then the dad stuff was really good too, about how his dad was like the king of depression. Right. Like, and how everyone in his family is mentally ill. Like, so he goes from the suicide to the depression to the mentally ill family members and into the hoard. Talks about his dad being a hoarder. I guess I just love hoarder comedy. Like, if there's a kind of comedy I love, I love when people talk about hoarders. Everyone so funny to me. [00:37:19] Speaker A: Everyone says I'm a hoarder, which is. [00:37:21] Speaker B: Just like, you are in a way. [00:37:23] Speaker A: But it's like, I don't have a fish tank full of Sports Illustrated from 1984. [00:37:30] Speaker B: That's so funny to me. It's really. It's really a sickness. It's a real sickness, but it's funny. [00:37:36] Speaker A: I always used to watch Hoarders, and what made me laugh, it was Hoarders followed by American Pickers. So it was like. It was like half an hour. Yeah, it was a half an hour of like, look at these fucking lunatics, like gathering old. That they. And then immediately celebrating loan. Look at these guys. They travel around in a van dragging old motorbikes out. Yeah. Like, wait, you just told me that that's mental illness. [00:38:02] Speaker B: It's two sides of the same now. [00:38:03] Speaker A: It's genius, apparently. Yeah. That's what I always liked about watching hoarders and then pickers. But anyway. [00:38:13] Speaker B: Yes, but hoarding is a mental illness. I think we can all get behind and enjoy and laugh at and love. Unless you where he says, like, yeah, and he does it so good what he talks about. And they acquire all this stuff and it has no value. And then when they die, you get to soar. It's great, right? Yeah. So I. This is another one. I don't know, you know, who are the other comedians? Maybe you can remember where they start off and I hate them. I didn't really hate him, but it was like I didn't really even understand what he was saying. Like the language of a 30 year old gay millennial. I don't like some of the phrases. I didn't even. What is the. He says, I'm getting cooked, I guess. Yeah, he's like, I'm turning into a Midwest aunt. Pilled. Like, what the does that mean? [00:39:15] Speaker C: Like, wait, what? [00:39:16] Speaker A: No, aunt, like auntie, like. Yeah, pilled. [00:39:20] Speaker B: What does that even mean, pilled? [00:39:21] Speaker A: Oh, I don't know. You're the one with teenage kids. [00:39:24] Speaker B: I don't know. [00:39:25] Speaker C: Yeah, I've never heard that one. I'm pretty privy to all this sort of stuff because I work in a comedy club around young people. [00:39:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:31] Speaker C: But that is a new one to me. [00:39:33] Speaker B: There was a bunch of them in there. And then he talked about being in Pink Panther mode. What the fuck does that mean? [00:39:37] Speaker C: Oh, he's just slinking around. I don't think that's even something the kids say. I think that's just. He had one hit of a joint and one drink and all of a sudden he's just like slinking around. [00:39:44] Speaker B: What does that even mean? [00:39:45] Speaker A: Like it. See, you know the titles to a Pink Panther film. [00:39:50] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:39:51] Speaker A: Where Cluso in cartoon form is chasing the Pink Panther around. [00:39:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:56] Speaker A: And Pink Panthers, like sliding up the. [00:39:58] Speaker C: Walls and just being cool. [00:40:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:40:01] Speaker C: Just in cool mode. Cool guy going out there, cruising the town. [00:40:07] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, I guess, I guess. [00:40:10] Speaker C: But. [00:40:11] Speaker B: But whatever was. And whatever saying, I'm like, I don't like this Guy, I don't like them. I don't like his vibe. I don't like his act. I don't. None of this shit is funny. He's gonna be doing fat jokes and. And, you know, gay jokes I can't relate to because, you know, I'm cisgender male who lays down with women, and I'm not going to like any of this. And then when he gets into the dark shit, then I like it. [00:40:38] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:40:38] Speaker B: And then by the end of this fucker, I love it. I love this guy. And then I'm looking him up. First thing I did when this thing was over, Caleb, he tore. I want to see this guy live. I was thinking, he's got no tour. [00:40:53] Speaker C: I was thinking the whole time, I bet this is even so much, a lot better. I mean, I. I was already to the point where I was enjoying it, but I was thinking, if I was in the room, I'll bet I'd really enjoy this. I'll bet I'd actually be loud. [00:41:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:07] Speaker C: Yeah. If you're, like, in the same energy in the room of the performer. [00:41:12] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. Probably so. Right. It's usually better live, but when. When I watch him at the beginning, like, on that shag carpet and those men's shoes he had on, and I was like, this guy's going to. Is cringy. Like, he's had a. Didn't seem that confident. And I was like, oh, God, I'm glad I'm not in that room. But then by the end, you're right. I was like, I would love to see this guy live. It was awesome. I'm gonna say this. Caleb Reardon is the greatest comic working today. [00:41:43] Speaker A: Well, that's why we need this ranking episode. So you just clear this bullshit. [00:41:47] Speaker B: 10 drink minimum, 10 microphones, 10 lights. [00:41:53] Speaker C: You know what was interesting, too, is I was watching it with the captions on, and they have, like, the scripters of the audience the whole time. It's kind of funny how they'll kind of describe what the audience is doing. Like, at one point, it said, audience laughing uncontrollably. And, I mean, they were laughing. [00:42:13] Speaker B: Maybe I had different captions on. Maybe watch it with the captions. No, you can. [00:42:19] Speaker C: Yeah. Especially during comedy specials. I can't stand them either, but sometimes you're just too lazy to turn them off. I don't know how they got turned on and just didn't really feel like finding the button. [00:42:29] Speaker A: I had to watch captions for about two weeks when my missus has hearing aids. And I never realized we'd accidentally turned off the transmitter, so we had to have captions on all the bloody time. So it drove me insane. [00:42:44] Speaker B: And you turn the transmitter off in the hearing aids. [00:42:48] Speaker A: So the hearing aids get everything coming out of the telly from this little Bluetooth. [00:42:54] Speaker B: Okay, okay. [00:42:55] Speaker A: And it accidentally got turned off, and I. I thought it was something else. I didn't realize it was a transmission. [00:43:01] Speaker B: But she knew she couldn't hear as well. Yeah, right. [00:43:03] Speaker A: So she said, well, it stopped coming into my hearing aids, so I couldn't suss it out for a couple of weeks until I realized this thing that I thought was another thing was the transmitter. So that two weeks drove me fucking insane. [00:43:17] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't like the. I mean, I'm. Now I find I'm watching my time because my kids. But I'm just reading. I'm not even looking at them. I'm just reading the words the whole time. And the words sometimes come before the. [00:43:27] Speaker C: Yeah, right. [00:43:28] Speaker B: Actual sound ruins the joke. [00:43:29] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:43:31] Speaker B: Yeah. But now I can't turn them off. It's like a crutch. [00:43:33] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:43:33] Speaker B: Because then you don't miss anything. Because my hearing's bad, too. [00:43:36] Speaker A: It's funny, though, when you're watching a comedy special with all the swearing and stuff, and you think, te. He's writing the words. [00:43:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:44] Speaker A: Some poor Voger. [00:43:45] Speaker C: I saw Noz Faratu in the. In at the Music Box Theater, and I was kind of stuck, like, wait in the corner there. And the sound was terrible, just kind of bouncing off the concrete floor and the walls. And, you know, they're already speaking with this really heavy accent. And he speaks. Have you seen the movie? [00:44:00] Speaker B: Y. [00:44:00] Speaker C: The new one? He speaks with this, right? Yeah. And so I couldn't understand a word. I didn't even stay for the whole movie. I really. I was like, I'm going to get something to eat. So. However, then on a flight to Dublin, they had that on the airplane. I watched it with the captions. Completely different movie. [00:44:18] Speaker B: Loved it. [00:44:19] Speaker C: It was great. Yeah, I knew what was going on. Captions. [00:44:23] Speaker B: Well, I think I'm gonna need captions as I. My advancing age. We're all gonna need them. [00:44:28] Speaker C: Maybe you can get one of the transmitters. [00:44:29] Speaker B: How's your hearing? You hear all right? Jesus, we're old. [00:44:38] Speaker A: Well, my favorite joke was the trans people abusing Gofundme. Because that. [00:44:42] Speaker B: That was funny. I liked when he said, straight men don't like women. When he's talking about being bisexual, he's like, I realized I wasn't bisexual, because. [00:44:56] Speaker C: Straight men don't like women. Yeah. He's like. It's kind of funny. I like guys, but I also like every movie that Louis Julia Roberts is in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:45:06] Speaker B: And then the redneck progressivism stuff was good, right? Like how we talked about rednecks. Like, I don't. Faggots don't bother me. Right. I'll take it. I'll take it. Well, nobody wants to hear us go through all this bits. [00:45:23] Speaker C: Go watch it. [00:45:24] Speaker B: Go watch it is what. What we're here to say is, go watch this, man. [00:45:28] Speaker C: Maybe that can be the review. Go watch it or don't bother. That's mine. [00:45:32] Speaker B: I want a rating system, But I'm. [00:45:34] Speaker A: Putting go watch it in the descriptions of them all. You are to the five people that go and look at it. [00:45:42] Speaker B: There is. It says, go watch it based on what you said or based on what we said? [00:45:45] Speaker A: No, no, no. Go watch it before you. [00:45:47] Speaker B: Oh, go watch it. [00:45:49] Speaker C: So I'm gonna say, either don't bother or take Mark's advice. That's gonna be my rating system. Take Mark's advice. Go watch it. [00:45:57] Speaker A: And early. One of my friends who was. Who did listen to a few early episodes said, you really have to push watching it before listening. [00:46:06] Speaker C: I think we've. [00:46:08] Speaker A: We had less. We had less bullshit then. [00:46:10] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:46:11] Speaker A: You just did the review. [00:46:12] Speaker B: Who would listen to this program, really? Someone? [00:46:14] Speaker A: That thing? [00:46:15] Speaker B: Yeah, I can't think of anybody who would want to listen. [00:46:19] Speaker C: I don't know why you would. [00:46:20] Speaker B: Why would you listen to this? Right, right. To hear. To hear British guy talk. [00:46:27] Speaker C: Some of the stories are good. [00:46:28] Speaker B: Yeah, some of the stories. [00:46:29] Speaker A: Well, you guys listen to podcasts, though. I can't understand listening to any podcast, let alone. [00:46:34] Speaker B: I don't listen to podcasts really. Once in a while you do. [00:46:36] Speaker A: He never stops. [00:46:37] Speaker C: Yeah. I love him. You can learn a lot. [00:46:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:40] Speaker C: Yeah. A lot of people like it. [00:46:42] Speaker B: My wife listens to all these episodes. I think she enjoys it. [00:46:46] Speaker C: I listen to our show, too. If it comes on while I'm, like, making dinner or something. If it's next up on the queue, you'll listen. Don't let it play. Yeah. [00:46:52] Speaker A: Can we sub in? Can your wife just take my spot? [00:46:55] Speaker B: And you want out? [00:46:56] Speaker A: Carry on. [00:46:57] Speaker B: We'll replace him. All right, let's replace him with. Maybe that's what we need, somebody American. You could. [00:47:04] Speaker A: You could, like. You could have passive arguments. [00:47:08] Speaker B: As part of my life. [00:47:09] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. You could, like, work issues out. [00:47:13] Speaker B: No, I don't want her on here. [00:47:15] Speaker A: As part of me tricking me. [00:47:17] Speaker B: I don't want her in here. [00:47:19] Speaker A: Like, imagine if I was your wife right now. What would you say to me? [00:47:22] Speaker B: About what? [00:47:23] Speaker A: I don't know. [00:47:25] Speaker C: Where'd you get those old sneakers? [00:47:29] Speaker B: I'm not saying. [00:47:30] Speaker C: When did you start wearing old sneakers? [00:47:31] Speaker B: See, you're trying to bait me into saying something that's going to get me in trouble later. Right? Well, now she's. Now she's like. Now I hear you saying. Well, I can't talk about that. Right. I'm getting about not talking about stuff. What? Now I'm going to get about what I just said just then. [00:47:46] Speaker C: Yeah, I know. And the face that you made was. [00:47:48] Speaker B: No, I didn't make a face. [00:47:49] Speaker C: You. [00:47:50] Speaker B: I love my wife. In fact, we were supposed to make love earlier. Now we're supposed to make love at two. What time is it? Oh, we had a long. Is it almost two? [00:48:00] Speaker A: Coming up to half one. [00:48:02] Speaker B: Half one? [00:48:02] Speaker A: Oh, you've got no Cubs pressure these days. [00:48:04] Speaker B: Cubs are out. [00:48:05] Speaker C: Ah, that's right. Yeah. Sorry about your. [00:48:07] Speaker B: So I don't have to go Cubs. So we're gonna make love from 2 to 2:30 today. All right, So I got a little time. I love to make love to her. [00:48:16] Speaker C: God, I love it. [00:48:17] Speaker B: You know, I didn't. I didn't think I would. I thought as I got older I wouldn't like to make love to this gal. [00:48:23] Speaker A: But God, what about this then? Why don't you make your. Make your rating system? [00:48:30] Speaker B: Yes. [00:48:31] Speaker C: Okay. [00:48:32] Speaker A: Erection based. [00:48:33] Speaker B: Right. [00:48:34] Speaker A: So you could. Flaccid. Flaccid means. Yeah. Half a tea cake is not. [00:48:40] Speaker B: What's a tea cake? [00:48:41] Speaker A: Half a tea cake means you're sort of semi. You got a semi lob on. And then. And then what is it? Totally. [00:48:49] Speaker B: I give it four lobs. [00:48:53] Speaker A: Flaccid. Half a tea cake to. What would it be? [00:48:58] Speaker B: I don't even know what a tea cake is. [00:48:59] Speaker A: Tumescent. [00:49:00] Speaker B: Tumescent. Turgid. Fully turgid. [00:49:03] Speaker A: Yeah. There's your rating system. It's got everything. It's got everything you like talking about. [00:49:10] Speaker B: I don't like that locker room talk. No, I'm gonna come up with it though. Three shags. No, no. [00:49:24] Speaker C: Yeah, that's not it. [00:49:25] Speaker B: No, it's not it. [00:49:26] Speaker A: Austin Powers three. Yeah, do an Austin Powers one. Groovy baby.

I'm giving it that many. [00:49:47] Speaker A: You give me a full. What's her name? Hugh Grant's ex, Liz Hurley. [00:49:57] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:49:58] Speaker B: Elizabeth Hurley's. [00:49:59] Speaker A: Full on. Liz Hurley. [00:50:03] Speaker B: Lobbed Liz Hurley's. I love Caleb Huron, one of my favorite comedians of all time. I gotta know him. I want to know. To the point where he talked about being out with all his gay friends. Trans friend, non binary. I want to have more friends like Caleb Huron. I'm doing Great Lakes Huron. Huron. And I want to be part of the gay community. I may even want to be gay after watching this because I like this so much. So fun. [00:50:40] Speaker C: Even as a cis. [00:50:42] Speaker B: Even though I'm cisgender currently. [00:50:44] Speaker C: Yes. [00:50:45] Speaker B: I'm considering a move to maybe buy. I may go by. [00:50:52] Speaker A: This is why your wife needs to be in these. These recordings. [00:50:56] Speaker B: Why? [00:50:56] Speaker A: Because I can witness this going on now. She's gonna find out, listening to the recording. [00:51:05] Speaker B: About what? [00:51:06] Speaker A: About you being by. Yeah. Running off. [00:51:10] Speaker B: She'll have to find out. [00:51:11] Speaker A: Running off to Miami with Ramon the pool boy. [00:51:14] Speaker B: She'll have to find out through the show, I guess now. Bye. [00:51:18] Speaker A: I guess that's. I guess there's a way to make people listen to this shite. [00:51:22] Speaker B: Yeah. I'mma start off with bi. I don't know if where it's going to go from there, but I'm bisexual now. Not. [00:51:36] Speaker A: That's a high rating for a. For a special. [00:51:40] Speaker B: What? [00:51:41] Speaker A: It changed my sexual orientation. It was so good. [00:51:45] Speaker B: I'm not. I'm not saying I'm attracted to Caleb Huron. I'm just saying I enjoyed it so much. And his being gay, it's made me take a step to the gay side. [00:51:59] Speaker C: And. [00:52:00] Speaker B: Whereas now I started today, I watched this. Today. This morning I woke up cisgender male. Now I'm bisexual. And I'm going to announce it formally on Facebook, which I did just join last week. [00:52:13] Speaker C: Facebook. [00:52:15] Speaker B: Yeah. I'm on Facebook. [00:52:15] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Heather said to me, what the hell is this? [00:52:19] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm on there. [00:52:20] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:52:20] Speaker B: How does they. How do they. How does Heather know I've joined Facebook? [00:52:23] Speaker A: Because it does. It chains recommendations together. So, like, she's friends. One of the few people she's inexplicably friends with on Facebook is Croatia's. [00:52:33] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:52:33] Speaker A: That's the only person you must have linked to Croatia croissus and C.J. sullivan. And that would be. Boom. Then it's gonna say, I think the. [00:52:41] Speaker B: Only person I'm friends with is Croatia's on Facebook. Because I just wanted to try it out. I didn't want to accept any other friends. Just. I'm testing it out with Kos. He's very Active. [00:52:52] Speaker C: What made you make the leap? [00:52:54] Speaker B: I've been wanting to for a while, dip my toe in social media. [00:52:58] Speaker A: Oh, God. [00:52:59] Speaker B: You know, so I'm joining Facebook. [00:53:00] Speaker A: Just as everyone else is leaving. [00:53:02] Speaker B: They're leaving. [00:53:04] Speaker A: Bill comes running along with his bathers on. Let me in. Everyone's le. Like, I mean, what is it now? Like, Facebook is over 50s, right? [00:53:15] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, I think it's. [00:53:16] Speaker B: Well, yeah. Hey, I'm over 50. [00:53:18] Speaker C: Yeah, there you go. [00:53:21] Speaker A: I mean, the kids have a grading thing, right, don't they, where they go, well, if you. If you're under 25, that's tick tock. If you're under 35, that's Instagram. [00:53:33] Speaker C: I know they. At least they did 10 years ago. But those, those kids aren't kids anymore. So I don't know who's in charge of the idea, the grading system. No. [00:53:40] Speaker B: Well, the real reason I've joined is because apparently Craigslist is not a thing anymore. [00:53:44] Speaker A: What? [00:53:46] Speaker B: It's still there, but there's really? Yeah, I'm looking for something and it can never find it. And then it'll take me to say, Facebook Marketplace, but I can't get in there. [00:53:57] Speaker C: Yeah, that is that. Now I'm in the Facebook free. Yeah, that's a good thing. [00:54:01] Speaker B: That's the new Craigslist. [00:54:02] Speaker C: That's how my coffee maker. Actually, I just found a car that I'm looking at on Friday. [00:54:09] Speaker B: A car on Facebook. [00:54:11] Speaker C: Craigslist. [00:54:12] Speaker B: Really? [00:54:12] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:54:13] Speaker B: Be careful. I mean, most of you get murdered. [00:54:15] Speaker A: Most stuff that is on Craigslist is on Marketplace as well. If you do like a specific search, you'll find them in both places. [00:54:25] Speaker C: Really? Yeah, I guess, why not? You know, if you really want to sell the thing or limit yourself. [00:54:32] Speaker B: Yeah, so I'm on there. Cool. All right, well, you like Caleb Reardon? [00:54:39] Speaker A: Yeah. This was special. [00:54:42] Speaker B: I'm not saying that that's out. That's not. [00:54:45] Speaker A: I am. This was special. [00:54:48] Speaker B: It was special. It was very special. [00:54:51] Speaker C: You know what this made me think of? I had put on the Water Boy when I was in North Carolina recently. [00:54:56] Speaker B: Love Water Boy. [00:54:57] Speaker C: Yeah. Wanted something easy to put on in the background and, you know, I just really enjoyed the nostalgia is one thing. You know, I watched that movie a lot when I was a teenager, but revisiting some of the feel good moments of the waterboy and it was just a very easy. It was a very easy watch. It wasn't anything I had to pay a lot of attention to, but it just kind of ended up feeling good at the end. That's what I Compare Caleb Heeran's model comedian special to. [00:55:31] Speaker B: Yeah, it was feel good. I mean there was some darkness in there. But what it did for me, it reaffirmed my Democratic values or my meaning. I'm a Democrat. [00:55:44] Speaker C: Right. [00:55:45] Speaker B: He's the first guy that made me want to be a Democrat again in a while. You know, wanted me to be a liberal. I'm a liberal. [00:55:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:55:54] Speaker B: Yeah. And you know, I've gotten away from that. But now I'm back after watching this special. I'm liberal and Democrat again. And bisexual. [00:56:06] Speaker A: Every single comedy special is. Is left leaning. [00:56:11] Speaker B: Not Ron White, not Ron White. [00:56:14] Speaker C: Not Larry the Cable Guy. [00:56:15] Speaker B: Larry the Cable Guy. [00:56:17] Speaker A: I mean the good ones. [00:56:19] Speaker B: Oh, that's. See, you're too biased. [00:56:22] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:56:23] Speaker B: How about Joe Rogan, keeping yourself in a box. How about Dennis Miller's. [00:56:30] Speaker A: Dennis Miller doesn't do specials anymore. And the ones from the 80s. He would be left then. [00:56:35] Speaker B: No, no, no, no. He's a. [00:56:37] Speaker A: Was he always sneaky right winger? [00:56:39] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. [00:56:40] Speaker B: Oh yeah. [00:56:40] Speaker A: Even when he was on snl. [00:56:42] Speaker B: Yep. And maybe he didn't show his cards there, but yeah. Yeah. [00:56:48] Speaker A: I don't remember because he was on that week. [00:56:50] Speaker B: Hey, he's a right winger. Do your. Do your research. [00:56:54] Speaker A: The one I. The one I always remember Dennis Miller is when. When Dana Carvey comes on as Dennis Miller. As Dennis Miller on the weekend thing and just keeps like he's a rip baba ganoush. And Dennis Miller looks at him and goes, what the. What does that even mean? That was a good one. [00:57:13] Speaker B: They're great. Yeah. [00:57:14] Speaker A: Did he do it often then? I thought I was just a one off. [00:57:18] Speaker B: Dana Carvey. [00:57:19] Speaker A: Dana Carvey. [00:57:19] Speaker B: He does. If you. Dana Carvey's always doing Dennis Miller. Like he does them on the podcast all the time. [00:57:25] Speaker A: No, no, but this was on. [00:57:26] Speaker B: I don't know if he did it more than once, but yeah, I think he only that one time. Yeah. Where he had had the wig and everything. [00:57:31] Speaker A: Yeah, he had like in the suit and everything. Yeah. [00:57:35] Speaker C: All right. [00:57:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:37] Speaker A: That is a name from the past. [00:57:39] Speaker B: Well, hopefully Christian's teed up a nice right wing comedian for us to balance this one out next week. Yeah, let's. Who you got there? [00:57:46] Speaker C: All right, so this was supposed to be last week's. I forgot that I had something queued up. You have seen this man's billboard in Wrigleyville? [00:57:57] Speaker B: Chaz Walters hot property. [00:57:59] Speaker C: Hey, nailed that one. Did I already talk to you about this or something? Right on the nose. No, you sent to the group chat. Oh, yeah. [00:58:11] Speaker B: Oh yeah. I don't remember who you said, who. [00:58:12] Speaker C: The hell is this guy? And it was kind of funny timing because just earlier that day I had been talking to somebody that lives in Boys Town that was saying, I keep seeing these advertisements everywhere for this comedy special. Now prior to that, by about three nights, I was falling asleep watching something and the next thing came on and it was this comedy special. And I remember in between phasing in and out of consciousness, hearing some of the jokes, thinking, I can't tell if this is worth watching or not. But then the marketing campaign that followed for Andrew Santino's White noise. [00:58:44] Speaker B: Oh, Andrew Santino. [00:58:46] Speaker C: My interest. Yeah, I saw. And obviously the interest of at least one of the two other people sitting in this room. [00:58:54] Speaker B: And now this guy's maga. [00:58:57] Speaker C: That I have no idea what his political belief. [00:59:00] Speaker B: He's got a billboard in Boystown. He's maga. [00:59:03] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:59:03] Speaker A: Well, I mean, nobody. [00:59:04] Speaker B: No, he was Wrigleyville. No, no, he's Wrigleyville's maga. Country. [00:59:08] Speaker A: Yeah, he's a big sports. I think it's cuz he's. I looked him up after you get it, he's like, he's on, you know, barstool or whatever. Fucking bullshit. So it's gotta be good related thing. [00:59:19] Speaker B: Hey, we always talk about this and it never happens. Can we get Caleb Reardon in here? Here on Aaron in here, you have. [00:59:26] Speaker C: To get his name right first. [00:59:27] Speaker B: I love him. He's my favorite comedian. [00:59:29] Speaker A: Anytime he appears here, we're under strict instructions to not publicize. [00:59:34] Speaker B: Huh. [00:59:34] Speaker A: So he comes, but he'll be like, no publicity. [00:59:37] Speaker B: Is he super popular? [00:59:38] Speaker A: Yeah, he's obviously doing his own show. And he doesn't. [00:59:41] Speaker B: He's on hbo. [00:59:42] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:59:42] Speaker A: So. [00:59:45] Speaker B: Keep an eye out to now. [00:59:47] Speaker A: You mean on this in the. In the Lincoln Lodge or on the show? [00:59:51] Speaker B: Either. Yeah, I just want to meet him. [00:59:53] Speaker A: I keep saying I'm gonna deliver and don't. So I'm just not. You don't anymore. I'll tell you what I am delivering, but no, I won't. No, I won't say that. [01:00:02] Speaker C: What? [01:00:03] Speaker B: Brown trout as soon as the show's over. [01:00:05] Speaker A: No, no, no, no to the loo. No, it's not relevant. I'm not being coy. [01:00:11] Speaker B: Well, you have to tune in to the Patreon after hours. [01:00:14] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:00:14] Speaker B: And find out what he's talking about. [01:00:15] Speaker C: Thank you for subscribing to our Patreon, by the way. [01:00:17] Speaker B: And I'll tell you, last week's Patreon was underwhelming at best. He talked about someone who's shagging somebody, and then unconfirmed. [01:00:26] Speaker A: Yep. [01:00:27] Speaker B: All right. Friends. Andrew Santino. White noise. We'll talk about him next week. And maybe he'll turn me back. [01:00:34] Speaker C: Who knows? [01:00:35] Speaker B: Cisgender. My very fluid. [01:00:41] Speaker C: All right. [01:00:42] Speaker B: With my fluid.
