Speaker 2 I think we're starting. Hello, and welcome to Fly on the Wall

Speaker 2 without a guess is what we call it.

Speaker 1 Our segment called Standing or Sitting.

Speaker 1 So

Speaker 1 we talk about news and what's going on, and we don't really know anything. And everyone loves to point that out.
We're two idiots talking. Who cares? Good for us.

Speaker 2 We have strong opinions. We're passionate alpha males.
And we

Speaker 2 want to express ourselves, but we're not saying we're correct, but.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 1 By the way, I saw, I'm watching right now another rough cut of Buzz Boys. It's getting closer to being shown to people.

Speaker 1 Show it to people. We have no bosses.
People don't know this. We paid for ourselves.

Speaker 1 We're just going to show it, see if anybody wants to put out anywhere, or we'll just put it out and say, press here, buy,

Speaker 2 watch.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 2 I've only heard

Speaker 2 about Buzz Boys for quite some time. Yes.
And I'm.

Speaker 1 Maybe too long.

Speaker 2 No, but I haven't seen a frame.

Speaker 1 Not nothing.

Speaker 2 Just hearing about like what do you guys look like together? Where are you going? How's it shot? I'm very, very curious. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'll show you one quick, like, one-minute thing we have about it. Like,

Speaker 1 not a real trailer, but something Theo shows on the road. Well, I'm excited.

Speaker 2 It's a silly comedy. Yeah.

Speaker 2 So basically, as long as a basic story tracks, but no one's going to leave it going, that story tracks so well, but just just enough and then you need i'd say in an 80 minute movie you probably need three

Speaker 2 banger scenes i'm serious and then other little laughs but or at least two big scenes that's all you really need you just need some memorable ones remember deuce bigelow schneider the movie that did great was really sold off the trailer with

Speaker 1 him in gravity inversion boats swinging and hitting an aquarium and ripping it down and a full stunt crash, fish and water everywhere. And it was like, I'm going to that.

Speaker 2 I think that, um,

Speaker 2 yeah, there would you could, you know, a lot sometimes with comedies, I think Rob cued into that.

Speaker 2 If the sound broke, like you didn't have any sound, you still would be laughing a lot of the time, you know, funny with the sound off. Um,

Speaker 2 I remember in the beginning,

Speaker 2 Schneider had some guy go use the restroom and he was peeing for like two minutes, and it was like a fire hose. And it was just Rob's reactions.
So that's funny. It was just

Speaker 2 some stuff.

Speaker 1 So we'll see, and we'll catch you more on that later.

Speaker 1 In the news, there's a big mention of this Epstein vials thing.

Speaker 1 Any thoughts on that?

Speaker 2 It's kind of the news of the week. I would set the table with this idea

Speaker 2 that it's not like an overriding obsession with me,

Speaker 2 but the secondary premise is:

Speaker 2 is anyone anywhere in the world, someone of power or government or politician or important person, quote unquote, hiding something? Is there

Speaker 2 because the circumstances of how he died,

Speaker 2 he attempted suicide a few days before, he doesn't make it, then he goes back, he has a cellmate that's a murderer.

Speaker 2 Apparently, the cameras either malfunction. There was a technical issue.
The two guys to watch him fell asleep or got confused. I mean, it's so much stuff where you're not even injured.

Speaker 2 You go, well, what? What?

Speaker 1 Like, too many things happen at once.

Speaker 2 If this is Colombo, I'm going back to the 70s. Or if this is Law and Order, excuse me.
Is this your dog? Yeah, excuse me.

Speaker 2 I don't want to bother you, but I just have this wondering about why he would hang himself.

Speaker 2 Paging Kevin Pollock to do that impression.

Speaker 2 But so you're not,

Speaker 2 is the guy, is someone lying? And just what the fuck happened? Just tell us. Well,

Speaker 1 also, you can see lists, like they take a picture on Instagram of it's a list of 100 celebrities. Everyone's like, this is the real.
But I've seen ones at Drew Barrymore. I've seen one.

Speaker 1 Like, there's people that you go, this isn't anything.

Speaker 2 Well, it's also smart obfuscation. If you want to just exaggerate, add people.
And who knows if there was a list?

Speaker 2 Someone told me, and I'm not a conspiratorialist, that conspiratorialist? I had a couple pops before the show.

Speaker 2 And they said, there's this guy named Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaker 2 He's incredibly rich. No one knows how he got the money.
He has a secret island or an island. He flies Bill Clinton down there 13 times and other celebrities to the island.
Right. He has young girls.

Speaker 2 that are, you know, 15, 16, 17-year-old girls that have sex with these famous, powerful men, and they're secretly recorded. And then that is used as blackmail and political leverage forever.

Speaker 2 And I just go, well, that sounds like a conspiracy, a total fantasy. But then I found out there is a guy named Jeff Repstein.
He does have an island. Bill Clinton did go on the island.

Speaker 2 There's certain things we know. So then you're like, well, what else is going on? I'm not going to let you talk because I want the spade.

Speaker 1 I think,

Speaker 1 A, there could be a list like this famous list. Let's say they get the real list and the flight logs.

Speaker 1 But if it's Bill Clinton or Bill Gates, I would rather see a video of them doing something wrong because who cares? I mean, we just watched in the Puffy trial. It doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 1 It's all circumstantial. Like, so there is a list.
So there's an island. So they knew him.
Now, did they go there? Did they do anything? Is there proof they did anything?

Speaker 1 That's what people really, really want. They don't just want to say, oh, I heard this or this.
They've heard that for years. And also, what could be happening because

Speaker 1 now they say he hung himself.

Speaker 1 No controversy, no list, no nothing. Which also sounds weird, right?

Speaker 2 Well, why, why was there $290 million payout from Morgan Stanley? It was Jeffrey Epstein's bank toward the victims.

Speaker 2 Why is his right-hand woman, if anyone had a list, and it wouldn't be a little black book, it might be digital or in code or whatever. Why is she in jail for sex trafficking?

Speaker 2 So, and then why, what are the odds? Why don't they with 2020 do the odds of him

Speaker 2 the guards falling asleep and the cameras breaking

Speaker 2 right when he's hanging himself? I mean,

Speaker 1 but then they just did a video where they sent it. This is him in jail when he hung himself.
And you go, I thought they broke.

Speaker 2 I didn't think the video, when I was, the last I saw it was just him walking through the prison. There was none of him in the, in the, in the,

Speaker 2 well, I think I saw that. But who knows? This is a story going on this week.

Speaker 1 A clip of a door of a gym. They're like, this is his, whatever.
I think one possibility, which sounds pretty far-fetched,

Speaker 1 let's say that stuff is good for blackmail with some people. So in lieu of just telling everyone, this guy did this, the people that have it now go to them and say, now we'll blackmail you.

Speaker 1 So we need you to do this or we're going to let it out.

Speaker 2 Who benefited from Jeffrey Epstein not being on the planet? I mean, this is like crime drama series we see all the time.

Speaker 2 And then here's the other part of it: is that Pam Bionde, the press secretary, as of this taping. What is her last name? Bondi, I think.
Bondi, yeah.

Speaker 2 Bondi, yes. Um, had come out a few weeks ago.
Bondi. Yeah, Pam Bondi.
That we've got all the files. We got the stuff.
We're going to be giving you a lot of information.

Speaker 2 And then all of a sudden, like that, it was

Speaker 2 no hung himself. We don't have any evidence of any sex trafficking.
There's no list. We have, there's nothing, just goodbye.

Speaker 2 And even the first time they brought it up to Trump, he goes, why are we even talking about Jeffrey Epstein? Why would we talk about that? Why are we,

Speaker 2 it just makes you go, but yeah, but answer,

Speaker 2 we're being told, at least as of this taping, don't ask any questions. Just shut up.

Speaker 1 Again, yeah. I mean,

Speaker 1 it's sort of, yes, it's an old story, but it's one that you even Trump has to realize. It's a curiosity factor for people.
So you just want to put it out for good. What's the answer?

Speaker 1 And when that answer comes out, everyone kind of goes, I don't know if that's the answer.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 2 do a show and tell press conference. Have all the stuff.
Be humble about it. Have Pam go up there and go.

Speaker 2 Okay, this is what we thought.

Speaker 2 This is the video of me saying I've got all this stuff. But then we checked it again and cross-checked it.

Speaker 2 This is exactly why the cameras didn't work. This is exactly why they didn't work work while he was hanging himself.

Speaker 2 You know, because it just piques your interest and it's just good for

Speaker 2 the public psyche to not feel like they're being lied to.

Speaker 2 By the way, were you, I mean, this doesn't even seem fair, but

Speaker 2 were you in New York when he

Speaker 2 went when I went down with Epstein? Were you near that jail cell?

Speaker 1 Oh, you think I did it?

Speaker 2 Well, I just, I wouldn't know how.

Speaker 1 I'm not saying saying, look, I was there visiting someone that day in prison, but I did nothing wrong.

Speaker 2 Which I knew about. You text me.
I'm at the prison where Deference, you know.

Speaker 1 I do good things. I go there and visit people and bring them lunch.

Speaker 2 Right. And also, you did a pithy kind of selfie where you took a sheet and rambled it like this and went, remember that? A little video while you're in the prison?

Speaker 1 What's that? Where I'm faking making. Well,

Speaker 2 you had a sheet and you rolled it in a real tight thing, and it had a noose. And you went like, hey.

Speaker 2 You know and i'm not making you culpable i'm just saying there's stories that need to be explained no i'm just doing a funny selfie with that and it's not at the at the prison nothing to do with it yeah yeah now two things do not those don't add up uh

Speaker 1 but we'll get into other stories now but that was a story this week and then there was a diddy trial which I don't think is over yet as of this press time. It's just he hasn't been sentenced, right?

Speaker 2 It seems like, yeah, they're going to let him out after he's sentenced. You know, the judge did express worry worry that he would revert back and go after some of the I'm worried.

Speaker 2 I'm worried, but basically, I would be worried. The sex trafficking or the

Speaker 2 racketeering, like, so they're saying he didn't do it for the money. Do the two biggest things got dismissed, and then it was transporting

Speaker 2 prostitution. And I don't, that could carry 10 years, but I don't know.
But basically,

Speaker 2 basically, he got off.

Speaker 1 Basically, I feel like he's

Speaker 1 in better place than he was like he probably will get reduced sentence has he been in jail this whole time maybe they'll give him time yeah he's been in there like nine months now let me you ask a question is there a chance

Speaker 1 that he's headlining vegas in six months or he's he's just back does it if he's out and they just say okay on probation uh I definitely think he's back in biz.

Speaker 1 I think he has fans that will fully back him, fully go see him. I don't know if he's really even a singer or rapper.
I don't even know really what he does. No one really knows what he does exactly.

Speaker 2 Robert Smeich did a cartoon on SNL, and the entire notion of the cartoon, I might have mentioned this before, was what does P.

Speaker 2 Diddy do? I guess he's a producer, you know?

Speaker 2 Yeah, which means whatever. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, producer. I like that.

Speaker 1 But anyway, Piggy backed on Biggie. I mean, I don't know anything.
I can't talk.

Speaker 2 I don't know anything.

Speaker 1 But, you know, as just

Speaker 1 an objective viewer or listener, I really know even less. All right, let's get into the hard news.
This is very hard.

Speaker 2 I'll just say that one last piece did he drop. It's unsavory.
It's an unsavory story. Yeah, it's a little rough.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 Okay. Now,

Speaker 1 you were asking me earlier what pigeons look like when they puff out their chest to impress females, and I finally found some video.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 1 That impresses girls.

Speaker 2 I don't want to fall in love. I just want to kick you.
Stupid song.

Speaker 1 Song helps it. That's a pigeon.
I've never seen pigeons do that to impress me.

Speaker 2 I've seen a lot of pigeons in the park in New York and whatever. I've never seen anything close to that.

Speaker 1 I mean, are they all married? Or why? No one's trying to impress another girl pigeon. Like, why do they, they're walking through it.

Speaker 2 Is there a chance that's AI?

Speaker 2 I don't.

Speaker 1 Well, there's a chance everything is, yeah.

Speaker 2 Doesn't it make you kind of make that feel sorry when you watch these nature shows and the male component of a sea bug or whatever blows up into some freaky thing or changes its feathers to dark purple or whatever, it's just sort of like these poor horny freaks of nature

Speaker 2 blowing up and looking like alien double triple aliens.

Speaker 1 Those birds are like they puff their chest.

Speaker 1 The other female bird goes, I've seen this a million times. Or they go, yada da da da da da.

Speaker 2 They're doing like little wouldn't a bird catch like you know 50 worms put them in their mouth and spit them out like a machine gun look i can get

Speaker 1 if they had a worm joey chestnut and it said how many worms can you eat and the other birds would get up that would be kind of interesting

Speaker 2 What if a frog to impress another frog? Because we had a bullfrog up here in the middle of the night on the pond.

Speaker 2 But it seems like, what if a frog in a bioevolutionary way to impress impress would jump up a thousand feet in the air and then kind of fly down? What do you think of that? Do you have a frog voice?

Speaker 1 She goes, oh my God, I was on my phone. Go ahead.
He's like, I'm not doing that again. I just jumped 1,000 feet and then flew down.

Speaker 1 They make themselves kind of fat like that.

Speaker 2 I mean, the classic is the peacock. It's like

Speaker 2 what's up?

Speaker 2 What? You have a peacock? That's pretty good. Not really.

Speaker 1 They kind of go.

Speaker 1 They put that shit out there.

Speaker 2 I think of his Johnny Carson was actually, he was, he was golfing. He saw a peacock.
And that's before NBC started. It was like 1952.
It goes,

Speaker 2 I'm going to create a network and I'm going to have the NBC, the BB Peacock network.

Speaker 1 Someone had to say that. It might have been him.

Speaker 2 Someone had to do that, but it is kind of weird. And I do think even now,

Speaker 2 it's kind of unfortunate that NBC's live streaming is peacock because it ends with the word cock it doesn't sound inviting peacock it's right now streaming on peacock don't you find it's not a great name yeah because also you know it's a comedy word because you know the the k sound people say is good in comedy like i'm over here washing my peacock yeah exactly that's a dentist kind of thing Okay, let's see what we have here in the peacock

Speaker 2 reverence territory.

Speaker 2 spade made a million bucks ran out and bought himself a peacock and that's what i need more of in my life okay swordfish with a little turkey teriyaki sauce and a live peacock and some sort of corral on my ranching peacock under glass

Speaker 2 what was the question i don't even know

Speaker 3 give it up for chicago sebastian meniscalco's new stand-up special, It Ain't Right, is coming to Hulu on November 21st.

Speaker 4 It's wild. And I'm having a ball and the guests are having a ball and you will too.

Speaker 4 So please follow Club Random with Bill Maher and see new episodes every Monday on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 2 Next one. This is so interesting.

Speaker 1 Crowd is on the edge of their seat. Yes.
The most dangerous person in tech is an E-liner.

Speaker 1 Altman. Oh, is that Sam Altman? Elon.
It's 28-year-old. Oh, he built a training system for Open AI.

Speaker 1 And Zuckerberg, Zuckerberg gave him 15 billion for it.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 I mean, I think the only question people have is, is he right or left? Because if

Speaker 1 he gets to steer how people think.

Speaker 1 Very powerful position.

Speaker 2 You're right. Is it just science or, you know, it can be used for good or evil? We've seen it in science fiction films.
And now we're kind of living it.

Speaker 2 The idea that a 28-year-old gets handed 15 billion to make AI that'll take us over.

Speaker 1 15 billion? That's 18 zeros, baby.

Speaker 2 Back to Dennis. 15 billion for about six days of work.
Okay, that's a toddling character there.

Speaker 2 He's not going to have to be a chest thumper with the ladies. All right.

Speaker 1 You know how many peacocks you could get? Okay, he said all he did was hire sweatshop workers to procure data sets on the internet. I don't know if that's all he did.

Speaker 2 I mean, he said that about himself?

Speaker 1 No, this is a comment on the

Speaker 2 people who kind of know.

Speaker 1 Comments are always funny.

Speaker 1 Because although, oh, he's brilliant, but he lacks wisdom. Heavy comment.

Speaker 1 Heavy.

Speaker 2 Well, again, if you want to be in the room with it, Zuckerberg hired him or who paid him? Yeah, Zuckerberg Zuckerberg hired it. So they're guy, we got a guy who's really good.
He's 15 billion.

Speaker 2 All right. Okay, I got a guy,

Speaker 2 a guy who's really, really good as well. He'll do it for 10 billion.
I got three guys. They'll do it for 2 billion each.
So how do they arrive at 15 billion?

Speaker 2 They tell me you couldn't for 14 billion supplant him. He's that value? No.

Speaker 1 And it's not just a guy. He's bringing his shit with him.

Speaker 2 Oh, his whole job.

Speaker 1 How about he goes, no, I still own it, but I'll come up with new shit for for you. And they're like, no, no, no.
We want this thing.

Speaker 2 Oh, he owns it.

Speaker 1 Okay. Yeah, he owns it.

Speaker 2 You get everything I just said.

Speaker 1 Trademarker. He owns the guts of it.
So

Speaker 1 I guess, listen, I remember when they bought, the first time I was hearing billion, people are too young.

Speaker 1 Everything was millions. Government, we gave 10 million to this place.
We gave 100 million, which was like the highest.

Speaker 1 When it hit billion, I think during the last four or five years, it turns into a billion. Then I heard 20 billion.
Then we're doing 100 billion. I'm Like, you can't compute these numbers at all.

Speaker 1 Everyone, it's just nothing. It's so high.

Speaker 1 It's unbelievable. So everyone overpays.
Instagram, I think they were

Speaker 1 bought it for a billion. And I thought, that's insane for this stupid shit.

Speaker 1 And then it's obviously worth a lot. And then Snapchat, I think the guy wouldn't take two or three billion from Google.

Speaker 2 And I was like, whoa, dude.

Speaker 1 Is anyone going to get mad that you took $3 billion? You got ripped off? Let's say it goes to $100 billion. You still have $3 billion.
You're not going through it all.

Speaker 1 I mean, goddamn, get the stress off. Sell it.

Speaker 2 It's one of, it's, it's a heartbreaking thing when startups get lucky and they have this, they don't make much money, but they're valued so much higher and someone wants to buy them.

Speaker 2 And it's, if it works out when you say no, but if you were, if it doesn't work out, you're like, how in the fire?

Speaker 2 Did I say, take your 3 billion? Right. Take your fucking 3 billion and and shove it up your ass.

Speaker 1 Yeah. It's like teams that overpay for a player and they bomb and they have like a nine-year deal with them.

Speaker 2 They're like, oh, my God. Oh, I love the NBA.
What's his stats? He gets six points a game, two rebounds, and one steal. What's his yearly income? $71 million.

Speaker 1 You know, oh, yeah.

Speaker 2 I want the talent to get paid. I want the talent to get paid.

Speaker 1 Your boy Kevin Love gave me a shout out yesterday.

Speaker 2 Really?

Speaker 1 Do you know who that is?

Speaker 2 Of course. Great, great forward

Speaker 2 who famously came out about just mental health issues, kind of helped a lot of people in the league.

Speaker 1 He just got traded, I guess, yesterday.

Speaker 2 Where's he going?

Speaker 1 To a different team.

Speaker 2 To a different team. All right.

Speaker 2 All right.

Speaker 1 While you're on Miami, Heather, look it up. Kevin Love.

Speaker 1 Heather just shrugs her shoulders. I go, no, look it up.
She goes, I don't fucking know. I go, I know, but.

Speaker 2 Heather can look things up.

Speaker 1 I mean, she can look it up and she's going to say, I think it's the Miami Heat going to somewhere utah jazz acquired kevin love and kylie anderson in three-term team training utah jazz took them

Speaker 1 so i don't think he was expecting it because he posted a joe dirt clip saying what's it like to get traded and it was kid rock going

Speaker 1 nobody wants you here you crying boy nobody wants you here at all get out of here Hilarious.

Speaker 2 Oh, trading's heartbreaking. I mean, there was just recently a seven-team deal where I'll take this, you take this guy, you take this guy, the Warriors were in it, Houston, and he'll go over here.

Speaker 2 Yeah, seven teams.

Speaker 1 It's so complicated.

Speaker 2 I know. I can't keep track of it.

Speaker 1 I don't understand all their deals like,

Speaker 1 you know, free agent, restricted free. I don't really understand how it all works.
Do I care? Sort of.

Speaker 2 I don't have to look into it.

Speaker 1 It's fun for you. You're more into b-ball that you go.
they should get this guy if they lose this guy but this guy's good you know they finally make money and then they get too expensive for someone

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's, it's a real, it's a guts move to turn down things and how you navigate your career. You, you ideally want to get F you money initially, and then you can take more chances with that.

Speaker 2 You know, I mean, there were players in any professional sports who just saved every penny when they were playing.

Speaker 1 Dana wants FS money. Fuck Spade.

Speaker 1 Let's take all his money. Dana's got lots of money.
I'm not, no one's worried about Dana.

Speaker 2 Okay, let me just make this comment. Okay.
That's not true.

Speaker 2 But

Speaker 2 if you are someone who's living in a nice small house, really humble, have a humble car, whatever, and you have enough money coming in

Speaker 2 where you do what you want to do when you want to do it.

Speaker 2 If you want to work full-time or you don't want, you are by lifestyle, lifestyle is a millionaire lifestyle when you don't have to think think about money. And a lot of that's just the expense.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 I like to give wisdom.

Speaker 1 What was the question?

Speaker 2 It was, was Jeffrey Epstein? Did he hang himself? No, that was so 11 minutes ago.

Speaker 1 Puffy's hosting this week.

Speaker 2 I'm really enjoying the podcast. I thought the 11 minutes on the peacock was a really seminal moment.

Speaker 1 I thought Epstein and the Peacock was brilliant.

Speaker 1 We have Puffy. He's also the musical guest.

Speaker 2 That will mean he's fully back.

Speaker 2 I'm P. Diddy.
I ain't going anywhere.

Speaker 1 I'm back in the city.

Speaker 2 I got the baby oil. I know how to toil.
I one time worked the soil. Everybody find some oil.

Speaker 2 I BF'd olive oil.

Speaker 2 Well, Papa, I was watching.

Speaker 2 My name's not Gilthy. I know people think I'm filthy, but I want to tell you the whole story ify.
I pass a water bippy.

Speaker 2 God damn. I know.
I ran out of steam.

Speaker 2 This is our third podcast today. Nine years ago.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, we'll go to the next story. We really are racking them up.
Rack them.

Speaker 2 I love this podcast so far. Okay.

Speaker 1 This might be real, might not. A lot of girls have podcasts, a lot of women, and a lot of them, I'm figuring out mostly OnlyFans girls.
It seems like if you see something like this,

Speaker 1 it might be a fake podcast because no one actually looks at the real one. So they it's a good way to get clips on.

Speaker 2 You really just filmed a baby in suit on a couch.

Speaker 1 So if she's talking to the girl, but there's no real podcast, but it looks like one, they're just doing clips anyway.

Speaker 2 Oh, I see, just clips as if you're just basically filming clips.

Speaker 1 There's no real

Speaker 2 they're there.

Speaker 5 How much did you pay in taxes this year? I didn't pay taxes. I've never paid taxes in my life.
You never paid taxes? No. Okay, well, so I haven't either.

Speaker 5 I really don't know even what taxes means. Me either.
And I just like have money.

Speaker 1 This is kind of where I'm at.

Speaker 5 I really don't know. What do you even do?

Speaker 2 How do you go for it?

Speaker 5 How do you pay? You need an extension. Is it like taxes.com?

Speaker 1 Did she say extension? That's smart.

Speaker 2 That's one.

Speaker 2 I don't know.

Speaker 5 And it's different for every state. Like, why do some states have to pay more taxes than other states?

Speaker 2 I don't don't understand. They'll never will.

Speaker 5 That's why we're a woman.

Speaker 2 Okay, yeah. I'm a woman.

Speaker 5 It's fine.

Speaker 2 Someone explains the girl.

Speaker 1 Okay, a deep conversation.

Speaker 1 I do think there's,

Speaker 1 I think maybe in that world,

Speaker 1 a lot either forget or aren't advised to pay taxes. These people you hear making so much money in that.
Only fans world. I don't know.
I mean, if you don't, you're going to get a rude awakening.

Speaker 1 Maybe I don't want to pay taxes anymore anymore with Wesley Snipes, right?

Speaker 2 I mean, they gave him bad advice and he went to prison. Right.

Speaker 1 That's that. That's what's supposed to happen.
I think what's happening more is no one wants to pay taxes because

Speaker 1 when you realize

Speaker 1 they're missing $20 billion in California, you go, why? Is that my money I'm paying? And then it goes away and you go, sorry, we lost 20 billion, but we need more. So we're going to up the tax.

Speaker 1 I'm like, I don't want to pay anymore. How about just figure out a new way? Because just keep telling us to give you money that you lose

Speaker 2 you lose it why is there not online

Speaker 2 a very clear easy third grader could do it of listing of where california say california tax dollars

Speaker 1 specifically where is it going to this education system to this uh charity uh and follow it make sure someone's using it for the right not just kicking it to their cousins and uncles and or just i don't know it's so complicated i know and even you even if you talk to tax experts you can say to them um i don't know is that a write-off and they go oh i don't know we nobody really knows it could be maybe we'll write off part of it i think the frustrating thing for me is if i don't pay tax or something they're on my ass within days like you didn't pay you didn't pay exactly perfectly you owe more you're fined you're late but when they take your money and they blow it down the fucking shitter they just shrug their shoulders and go, Yeah, I don't know, give us more.

Speaker 1 And you better do it fast.

Speaker 2 I'm like, get fucked. It's getting annoying, dude.
It's getting bad.

Speaker 1 Give me one non-bumpy streak that doesn't rip up my oil pan. I'll be all right.
My neck and my oil pan. That's all I'm looking for.

Speaker 2 Yeah,

Speaker 2 let's have some pre-burns. Let's have some fire.
Let's add some fire management.

Speaker 2 Let's have our gas prices where people, poor people can afford it.

Speaker 2 You know,

Speaker 2 let's have really, I know these are hot takes. Let's have really safe neighborhoods.
Let's have just all over the state. Let's put some people in jail again.

Speaker 1 If you're a criminal and do something wrong, maybe there's a punishment. I mean,

Speaker 2 it's going too far. You're telling me.

Speaker 1 That is going too far.

Speaker 2 I swear it's a new world where,

Speaker 1 you know, the criminal is the victim. And that's just a tough new world.
I'm not quite wrapping my head around yet.

Speaker 2 It's hard for me to comprehend it, but you know what? I think in California, a lot of people, once it's in your, up in your face, then they're sort of like, you know,

Speaker 2 what, what, what? You know, this, we should not make it the new normal. When you're in a safe neighborhood and you feel safe at night, it shouldn't be like, whoa, this actually feels good.
You know,

Speaker 2 you shouldn't have to be like,

Speaker 2 I know someone who was out in a town,

Speaker 2 sort of outside in the valley

Speaker 2 toward Palm Springs. And then at six o'clock, they're at this party and they just said, you guys got to get out of here.
They go, why? Well, the gangs will start to filter.

Speaker 2 You've got to, it's six o'clock. You've got to drive out of here now.

Speaker 2 Don't wait.

Speaker 1 So I'm at a store right where I go to the bottom of my street, walk out front of some dudes chewing on a fucking extension cord.

Speaker 1 He's got a blackjack in his hand.

Speaker 2 One of my Gleeco.

Speaker 1 You know, it's just nerve-wracking. There's a lot of nerve-wracking stuff anywhere.
I mean, there's almost no neighborhoods where where you go, this is totally fine.

Speaker 2 I met a 76er down in Hollywood trying to get some petrol. Okay.
First of all, it's $19 a gallon. All of a sudden, I see Skippy, the homeless guy.

Speaker 2 He's got his pants around his ankle, his unit in his hand. He's chugging a half pint of whinskey and goes, have he got a dollar? Okay.
And that was the best part of the day down there. All right.

Speaker 1 I remember the one time when a guy came out of CVS, he goes, David Spinner. And I go, hey, man, he goes, David Spinny.
He followed me for three blocks and he goes, give me some money.

Speaker 1 And it turns into like a casual robbery because I go, all right. And I go, there's 10 bucks.
He goes, I know you got more than that.

Speaker 1 I was like, and then he goes, I open my wallet and he goes, give me that 100.

Speaker 1 And I go, well, 100 feels like a little end. He goes, pluck.

Speaker 2 And I go,

Speaker 1 all right. Can I leave the crime now? Am I?

Speaker 2 Then he says, that's a pretty watch. You give him a watch.
Yeah, give me that watch. Yeah.
No, then give me that jacket. Where does this end?

Speaker 1 And he goes, goes, you always wear blue on that podcast. And I go, oh,

Speaker 1 you have a laptop? He's like,

Speaker 1 you and Dana kind of complain about the stuff maybe too much. I go, all right, well, that's not what we're here to talk about.

Speaker 2 I just really don't know why

Speaker 2 Tom Segura would hassle you like that.

Speaker 1 He could be a perfect homeless guy.

Speaker 2 I'm just shocked at Tom Chryser, too.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Chryser. Okay, let's go to the next.

Speaker 1 What's this? Oh, this is funny. Models doing dumb things just never gets hold of me.
Okay. The new, you know, they always do a modeling thing and they don't know where to put it.

Speaker 1 This one, they're,

Speaker 1 I don't know if you can see it. They're in water.

Speaker 2 Okay, models in water.

Speaker 1 Models looking stupid in water.

Speaker 2 Dirt.

Speaker 1 Okay, we can drop the opera. That guy's hair looks like shit.

Speaker 1 Look at that, Marilyn Manson.

Speaker 2 You know,

Speaker 2 it looks ridiculous, but we're looking at it. That's all I can say.

Speaker 1 A little night of the living dead for me.

Speaker 2 Look at this outfit right here.

Speaker 1 High collar. That guy's got some quads.
High collar. Leather.
You're not supposed to get it wet, I heard.

Speaker 2 This is the episode of Dennis. Yeah, Christ's sakes.
I know. It is funny.
That's what I need when I'm looking for a Vente jacket is some kind of zombie water motif coming at me. All right.

Speaker 2 I don't want to

Speaker 1 buy a Versace jacket for 22 grand. I find a largemouth lunker bass in the pocket.

Speaker 2 That was a good one. Yeah.
Okay. What's next? They get sucked down the drain and you do a raffle to see which one's still alive.

Speaker 1 I mean, again, goldfish in my chonies.

Speaker 1 All right. That's funny enough.

Speaker 2 We got to do something where we're just sitting in ice baths or something during the podcast, it's kind of weird.

Speaker 1 Oh, these are big prom entrustes. I gotta have to ask Harper about this one.
Is this a good one, Heather? What do you think?

Speaker 1 Queen song, outhouse. Great queen song, by the way.

Speaker 1 Look at what the heck did I just watch?

Speaker 2 A lot of hits.

Speaker 1 I don't like this long wind-up to what we all know is about to happen.

Speaker 2 I don't know what's going to happen. Oh,

Speaker 2 okay.

Speaker 1 Here's my little princess.

Speaker 2 so she she sat in there for like 40 minutes yeah she took a dump okay yeah yeah

Speaker 2 oh this isn't even queen

Speaker 2 ox

Speaker 2 who is it

Speaker 1 no one's impressed and doesn't say it says no one's impressed no i think just all the faces oh yeah everyone just staring off like this going she's like sorry it was taco tuesday

Speaker 1 Is that the dad's idea? You think it's not a great idea?

Speaker 2 Daddy,

Speaker 2 I I just want my prom because I get so nervous. Could you have an outhouse? And I would make it nearby.
Nearby, so I could go in it and then come out.

Speaker 2 And Bridget and Susie could take pictures of me coming out of the outhouse. Daddy?

Speaker 2 Daddy.

Speaker 1 You ready in there?

Speaker 1 Yep.

Speaker 1 Sometimes you see people,

Speaker 1 they put a little English on at the end. They go,

Speaker 2 put a little English on.

Speaker 2 Has it come to this?

Speaker 2 It has. It has come to this.

Speaker 1 We're not out of material. This is quality.
I'm not saying this is the bottom.

Speaker 2 This is good. I'm not apologizing.

Speaker 1 I don't apologize. Not for this.

Speaker 2 Not for this. No, we don't go to the spot.
Don't put a little spin on it.

Speaker 1 So funny. Okay, next one.

Speaker 1 People like, don't be political and don't be dirty and don't be scatological. I'm like, what else?

Speaker 1 That's you farting and changing yours.

Speaker 2 I was trying to top yours. Here is race car farting.

Speaker 1 Let me see what this is. Oh, this guy.

Speaker 1 There's a man in New York. This is the New York TikTok or something.
Man in New York, known as the human carpet. He wants girls to walk step on him.

Speaker 2 Okay.

Speaker 1 Is he an artist? I don't know.

Speaker 2 Oh, I see. Performance art.

Speaker 2 Look at that.

Speaker 2 Sort of thing. He's rolled up in a carpet on the sidewalk.

Speaker 1 I would do this for fun, but I don't like it.

Speaker 2 So I'm glad I captured that for everyone.

Speaker 1 Here comes some more.

Speaker 2 It's got a few more folks walking on.

Speaker 2 Should we walk on his wiener? And then I'm going to go

Speaker 2 for you all. So you could see it.
I would get the boxer Butterbean. Look him up.
I'd get Butterbean.

Speaker 1 Oh, she she went for it.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Okay, kind of reflecting on what I just did, it seems like I might have indirectly pleasured someone from my walking.

Speaker 2 It sounds like I'm doing God's work, but that was also a huge hazard and borderline illegal. Sorry, do not cut it.

Speaker 1 Get rid of him.

Speaker 2 That was a little off-putting.

Speaker 1 It was wrapping a guy wrapping in the picture.

Speaker 2 I think I gave pleasure to a guy with one foot.

Speaker 1 We don't need him. We need

Speaker 2 the guy wrapped in the carpet, wanting to get stepped on. I say, good for him, man.

Speaker 1 It's kind of funny that if that's your thing, he sort of goes, I'm just not going to be ashamed.

Speaker 2 Do you want to hear a real story?

Speaker 1 Yeah, sure.

Speaker 2 And I don't know if I told you this one, but it'll seem too fantastical. It relates to this on some level.
I hope it's you wrapped in carpet. My brother,

Speaker 2 Mark Carvey, was living in New York in the 70s. He was an artist and a painter.
He's still around, but he had a career and whatever. So he's in New York and he's going to an exhibit.

Speaker 2 And, you know, art got a little funny in the 70s. It's still very exotic.

Speaker 2 So he goes in

Speaker 2 and they tell him that the artist has built a false floor under the floor.

Speaker 2 So when you go in to look at the artist's paintings, he wants you to know that he will be under the floor that he's built and he will be masturbating.

Speaker 2 Now, this is directly God's honest truth. So there's no joke.

Speaker 1 It's not Picasso.

Speaker 2 i'm guessing okay going for the old false floor jackoff thing under the under the van gogh okay

Speaker 2 so that's you know that's like performance art the guy in the carpet you know probably they film it and they put it in a museum and then it's probably clear so you can you go hey is that van blow down there i knew you'd come up with something

Speaker 2 yeah let's see is that leonardo de jackoff okay is that peter beard jerking the gherkin

Speaker 2 Another Edward hop around down there on your Johnson.

Speaker 1 Okay. This is Jackson Pollock wrestling the bald-headed champ.

Speaker 2 Jackson Peacock down there, bro. Oh, yeah, peacocks are.
Also wood. But anyway, that's art is a, art got

Speaker 2 funny. No rules in art.

Speaker 1 I will give you that. No.
My brother, Andy, is into art. He's got all these cool things, but it always.
Makes me laugh. He's got very interesting things.

Speaker 1 It's good because you can really think out of the box.

Speaker 2 If you like it, you like it. But sometimes I will go in and I love going to art museums, love art.
But I saw one once and it was 40 feet wide and 20 feet high.

Speaker 2 It was all white, covered the whole wall, and it just had one red dot in the middle of the painting.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, heavy man, heavy.

Speaker 2 It's kind of like if you think you could do it, then you lose respect. you know yeah

Speaker 2 if you see a van gogh by the way you go holy shit you know yeah the good ones are good. I don't agree with all of them.
I told you this

Speaker 2 wrinkles.

Speaker 1 Uh, let's see one more, and then we'll get out of here. We get we've really spoiled everyone.

Speaker 1 Oh no, this is funny.

Speaker 2 I had a deadbeat dad growing up.

Speaker 1 Uh, oh, we, oh, okay, these people hire this guy,

Speaker 2 KY. Okay,

Speaker 2 bomb. Here we go.

Speaker 2 Deadby Dad gets tackled.

Speaker 2 Oh.

Speaker 1 These moms tell this guy and they email him and he just

Speaker 2 who's taking the video because he thinks his dad

Speaker 2 committing a crime.

Speaker 1 Put that guy in the garbage.

Speaker 2 Uh-oh, this guy's gonna fall hard.

Speaker 1 That's that Norbit.

Speaker 1 Whoa, that is a big guy getting a big guy and this guy's like later whoa i don't promote violence but you know

Speaker 2 so their dad are not only absentee but whoa they don't funny in zisle

Speaker 1 all right that's good

Speaker 2 don't do it in front of the kid though they don't did be dad the the qualification is you you're absentee and you don't send money that's completely okay

Speaker 1 yeah so the moms get frustrated there's no money they see them out clicking their heels. They have no repercussion.
They have no recourse.

Speaker 2 And they hire this guy.

Speaker 2 Jason does it for free.

Speaker 2 Just

Speaker 2 kind of harm them, though.

Speaker 1 Just go tackle them and say, pretty tough tackle. Go take,

Speaker 1 go

Speaker 1 get back on your responsibilities, kind of.

Speaker 2 Well, I knew a mom.

Speaker 2 Finally, I missed that.

Speaker 1 I didn't know where to use it. I've been sitting here with my hand on the trigger.

Speaker 2 I know a mom that's so happy about her husband that she hires beautiful models to go find their husband and just make out with him. So that's the flip side of what we do.
Oh, to get

Speaker 2 him a reward.

Speaker 1 Oh, I thought it was to catch him cheating. No, no.
Some girls will send in a decoy to say, see if my husband will cheat. Try to DM him, you know, that kind of thing.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Well,

Speaker 2 deadbeat dads, it's a good, it's a good phrase. Do they have a dad for a phrase for a non-deadbeat dad?

Speaker 1 Just dad.

Speaker 2 Just dad.

Speaker 1 Just divorce dad. No, my dad didn't pay the whole run since I was four.
So we were four, six, and eight.

Speaker 1 Not a penny. Not an alimony, not a child support.
And he lived about a mile away. And he'd be clicking his heels.
So I see the frustration.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's just, you know, and then

Speaker 2 the

Speaker 2 son,

Speaker 2 you,

Speaker 2 becomes very successful, has a couple shekels in his pocket. And then, and then suddenly daddy's around.

Speaker 1 Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 2 Okay, well, we'll land on that.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 now we'll send. Oh, anyway, so my dad never paid.

Speaker 1 But then I got on sign live.

Speaker 2 Why do I keep forgetting to buy some of those? You gotta buy something, Stu.

Speaker 2 I have to do them as soon as we end this podcast or else I'll forget and I want to shock you.

Speaker 1 No, maybe I'll buy one for you and we'll send it to you. And you just open it and start using it.

Speaker 2 I'll open it on camera and then I'll

Speaker 2 delight it.

Speaker 2 all right we got two written question guys uh but you can do audio questions too you can send it to uh fly on the wall at odyssey.com and you also can do it in audio you can do it with a little video or or you can write the question.

Speaker 2 So we got a couple right now.

Speaker 1 Yeah, okay. Let's see.
We're going to try. Ready? Here we go.
Is it written? I think it's written.

Speaker 7 This is the first one from Molly. This is Molly from Cincinnati.
Quick story. I watched David's most recent Netflix special on a flight to Texas.

Speaker 2 I was giggling the whole time.

Speaker 7 At the end of the flight, my seatmate on the plane said, I have to ask, what were you watching?

Speaker 2 That was so funny. Question.

Speaker 7 What goes into each of your hair routines? They look highly stylized and elaborate.

Speaker 1 That's the question from the special.

Speaker 2 The special was good.

Speaker 1 I had a good little lumberjack shirt on.

Speaker 1 I switch it to my shirt. No, the hair is saying,

Speaker 1 it's really

Speaker 1 my hair story.

Speaker 1 Is that you call your routine?

Speaker 1 No, we call it something else. When I get up and do my hair, the first three and a half hours of my day, it's going like this.

Speaker 2 Hey.

Speaker 1 So what it is, is they blow dry it straight because my hair gets very wavy.

Speaker 1 That's really the part I hate. So, and I hate getting it worked on or touched.
So I keep it for a couple of days. But they did it that night in the special because you have to.

Speaker 1 And then I didn't know what I was going to wear. I had a coat or a shirt.
And five minutes before they go, you got to pick one. And I said, I'll put the coat over the shirt.
I changed it.

Speaker 1 And the rest is history. But I appreciate people watching.

Speaker 2 Why does that happen to us? Why do we wait to what we're going to wear in a special?

Speaker 1 It's crazy because it's because you don't want anything, you want to look sort of different. Like Lauren, you say, let them know you're a star.
That's what he'd always tell me.

Speaker 1 Dress like a star and separate yourself from people. But when you do a show, Eddie Murphy in the red leather was like, oh, this is what you do.
Really dress up.

Speaker 1 But I kind of am not like that. It's not my vibe.
So I want to wear something a little more normal. Didn't want to go total t-shirts.

Speaker 2 I think as a new

Speaker 2 thing of authenticity, I think Shane, Tylis, come out in a t-shirt or like

Speaker 2 people coming on like they're just something they just picked up off the floor. You know, and that's kind of cool, too.
You know, you were sort of casual. It looked like something you would wear.

Speaker 1 A flannel shirt, a coat.

Speaker 2 I liked it.

Speaker 1 It was fine, but I appreciate them watching and I'm glad they giggled.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Okay.
Thanks. One more question.

Speaker 2 One more. Until next time.

Speaker 7 All right, this is from Hayden. I'm an actress

Speaker 7 a year and a half out of college looking for theater work. I've been turned down at every audition I've gone to so far.

Speaker 7 Can you give me any audition advice for someone just starting out in the industry?

Speaker 1 I wonder if she got turned down or she didn't get a callback or something. She never even auditioned.
What does that sound like, Dana?

Speaker 2 Well, it sounds like she auditioned and got turned down.

Speaker 1 Oh, I see. Okay.
I mean,

Speaker 1 without seeing it,

Speaker 1 I mean, it's the easiest business to get discouraged in. So she's not crazy.

Speaker 1 It does take a while to get things going and know it well. And there's a book called Audition that might help.

Speaker 1 They gave me that when I was, it's really, it's almost a different muscle auditioning than being in something.

Speaker 1 So you have to sort of study that. And they can tell if you're new, the way you hold your papers, the way you walk in, or when you start talking.
Some people come in and just go, we going? Let's go.

Speaker 1 And you go, oh, they've done this before. But, you know, Dana, me and you go in, we go, hello, my my baby we try to bullshit around

Speaker 2 well it's like trying it's try not to try it you know first of all okay three things it's an emotionally violent career so get used to losing and embrace it like i probably went oh for a hundred for auditions in the 80s before s and l maybe even more and so you just collect them first of all it's never personal it's usually a little bit of luck the things that i got i got right away because they just thought i was the right type So never take it personal.

Speaker 2 I used to think that Marlon Brando had just read before me. I was so intimidated, you know.
Don't take it too seriously. Collect defeats.

Speaker 2 And the only thing you control in your entire career is just try to get better, whether it's an acting workshop or whatever. The rest is just, there's a lot of timing and luck to it.

Speaker 2 And that's just the way it is.

Speaker 1 I'm Same Boat. I missed.
I got a commercial agent. You're perfect for commercials, quote.

Speaker 1 Two solid years, at least two a week, one in the valley in a suit, one down Manhattan Beach an hour away with shorts, and never got one.

Speaker 1 Two straight years. So it's almost impossible with those odds, but I didn't get anything.

Speaker 2 And then for Police Academy, someone saw you doing stand-up. You look like the character they need.

Speaker 1 And I looked, I could play under 18 or whatever, under 18, and I could skateboard.

Speaker 2 Skateboard. So I got, you know, I had a small deal at NBC

Speaker 2 and the head of the network, they were doing the Mickey Rooney show and they needed someone to be his grandson. And I looked kind of like him, but I was 40 years younger.

Speaker 2 And the head of the network, Fred Silverman, goes, That's Mickey Rooney's grandson. He saw two seconds of a video of me.
Right. I didn't even audition.

Speaker 2 And then other times I audition and I didn't get it. So it's very normal.
Just know that it, just try to work on getting better, and your time will come.

Speaker 1 And hang in there. If you really like it, you're going to do it forever.
So just hang in there.

Speaker 2 You'll get work if you if you stick to it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Thanks, guys. Thanks for the questions.
Any final words for everybody

Speaker 2 um the only thing is on next superfly i want you to guess this big mystery okay what's in there it's going to be something sort of sort of positive not the last time it was a rovostatin pill

Speaker 2 that not that wasn't exciting it could be

Speaker 1 a rotting tooth it could be anything we don't know yeah that's the thing it's the mystery it's the mystery bag suspect everyone's freaking out okay we'll see in the comments on youtube see if people got this far.

Speaker 1 So they'll

Speaker 2 wait to read comments.

Speaker 2 Cannot fucking work. I'm going to sit down for a big evening of comments.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I get a cigar and some Dinty Moore beef stew.

Speaker 2 Dinty more.

Speaker 2 My regular. That was a good pull right there.

Speaker 1 Got it in my doomsday shelter.

Speaker 2 Jesus.

Speaker 1 All right, we did Dennis Miller. We did

Speaker 2 just kind of an homage to our friend Dennis Miller today. He just, for some reason, the comedy, all improvised, no script.
I know it seems amazing.

Speaker 2 Dennis

Speaker 2 was a very expressive vessel for what we were doing today.

Speaker 1 All right. Thanks for coming to my show, Dana.
I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 Thank you for having me, David.
