Because I'm stupid
and then we're off to the races.
motherfucker.
It's as fast as it can go, Mr.
Quinn.
How about if I make it 70,000?
Can it go faster than?
What was the response?
You're like, okay, something like that.
What would you want me to do?
Should I be doing fucking cartwheels down the hall?
Tell him, Steve, Dave.
Hello, and welcome to this week's edition of Tell'em Steve Dave.
No guests this week.
Just the old crew.
Not even a Mike for Giddem, I noticed.
Walt here.
Hello.
BQs.
Hello.
So it's just the three of us, boys.
And I got to tell you, I have not done much lately.
What do you mean?
I just don't do anything.
Well, that's what it is.
Each week I come to the table and I'm like, I wish
I had done something.
Like this weekend, I'm going to Atlantic City, so maybe something will happen.
Don't force it.
I know.
It just seems like
nothing.
I mean, nothing's happening at my house.
I can tell you that much.
Yeah.
Outside of the house, I'm not sure.
It's just miserable and dark.
Yeah.
So slushy and shitty.
What are you supposed to do?
I had my parents with me for a week.
Yeah, how was that?
Okay.
Yeah.
I mean, look, you know, it's that thing of like they're genuinely fun, and I, you know, I like, I like having them around, but you are, you know, by day, like, you know, five, you're like, oh, that's right.
I'm not doing anything I normally do.
Right.
Yeah.
But your whole day gets.
Yeah, but at the same time, that's such a petty.
I'm just so happy.
You know what I mean?
Like, they're here.
They're healthy.
I love.
And do you play like
the tour guide or like to go like you're like, I'm going to organize activities for?
They lived in New York for too long, right?
Yeah,
my dad doesn't want to do anything.
Well, he just had, like, he was up here to have like a heart procedure.
So it's not like he could.
All right.
But even if he did, it wouldn't be like, let's go to the zoo.
I thought, yeah, you're like, you're like ramping up the, you know, we got to do do this, we got to do this.
He would go to a train store with me.
We ran my train set around together, a little father-son bonding.
Really?
Yeah, because
he used to ride, he used to drive subways as a, you know, and that was his job.
He worked for the MTA.
So I bought a subway set of the trains that he primarily drove.
Worked on.
And we had a good time running that around the track.
Now, how long does this activity last?
Because in my head, I'm like.
Three days.
In my head, I'm like,
if you brought me, like, if I visited you, you're like, hey, you want to go downstairs and see my train set up?
I'd be like, yeah, yeah.
And then, like, with by five minutes in, I'd be like, when are we going upstairs?
Well, it was a little different because, like, he was telling me all about like what it was like to work on them.
And, like, you know, that went to like when he first got on the job.
And he was telling me stories about like when he, you know, just shit that happened to him at work.
So it was like, it opened the door to a little bit more.
Like he knows everything about these fucking trains.
So does he know all the secret labyrinths underneath the city?
He does.
He does.
He does because I watched.
Where the mold people live?
Dude, we went online.
Like I said, I go, you know, they have these YouTube videos of your old route.
Like, you know, people put the GoPro on the front of the train.
I was like, you think you'd still recognize any of it?
So we looked.
And at one point, we were watching it went into a tunnel.
And then it started going past these rooms.
And I was like, what are in those rooms?
And he he was like, Oh, they're mostly storage.
He goes, Sometimes you get all like homeless camps in there and stuff like that.
So, yeah, yeah.
So, I got a lot.
I got a like a nice
my trained education continues.
What was that team of mutants that lived under the subway?
Was it the Morlocks?
Morlocks in X-Men?
Yeah, Caliban.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The Morlocks.
Jasko.
Any Morlocks pop?
I know it was best to avoid any comic book talk while he was on a roll.
The irony is, you're playing with toy trades and you're like, I don't want to talk about comics.
I'm not going to talk about kids shit.
Yeah.
He'll think I'm gay, Walter.
Only talking about male stuff.
What do you think about it?
We had to bring up comics, didn't we?
I was going to say,
I thought I had a son.
Let's go upstairs, Brianne.
Superman.
Man.
Would it have brought it to a screeching halt if we started talking comics?
Probably.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then he doesn't give a fuck at all.
He will not care.
He will not care at all.
Happy to talk about trains, though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Now, how much have you invested, you think, in your train collection so far?
Not much.
It's still been like simmering.
Under four figures?
No, because,
well, the only reason no is because the set that were his trains have been out of print for 20 years.
So he had to
pony up.
I had to pony up a little bit.
How much were those?
A little bit.
Chuckle who says,
no, for the set, it was like $1,100 for the set of them.
But six trains.
You know, so.
This is like, how do you tell the common man?
Can you tell the price of a gallon of milk?
Right, yeah.
a little bit.
Not much.
I don't think that's a lot, dude.
In the train game, it appears like some of those locomotives go for like 800, 900 bucks.
Yeah, I don't have any of that.
I sent you that article about the Long Island train collectors.
I don't know if you read it yet.
I did not read it yet.
And it said they have, it's this group of guys that were in Long Island, and they had like this space where they would just get together.
It was like a train club.
Yeah.
And they just recently acquired the Blue Comet from Sopranos.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's right.
Yes, yes.
I did look at this, right?
Yeah, the original one.
It still has the blood splatter on it.
It still has a blood splatter on it.
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Yeah.
They acquired
the Blue Comet.
Yeah.
Yeah, but they said they have like $1.3 million worth of train stuff.
That's what I'm saying.
This shit is not cheap.
All I have is a circle of tracks, and those deadwood.
This is the hobby of the privileged, you're saying.
There's a way, like everything in life, there's a way for the common man to do it.
There's a way for the moneyed class to go about it.
Yeah, yeah.
And I know what side I'd rather be under.
And how much floor space do you devote to your
setups?
It's not too bad.
I mean, you can come over if you want and check it out, Waller.
You don't, you know, you've got a five-minute window.
You just heard that.
But what a five-minute.
It's just on the floor underneath my pinball machine.
So they're not even taking it.
Oh, so you haven't even got built a platform.
No, no, no.
They just
go, I'm just going slow, man.
You know, I don't want to.
Take a nice big piece of plywood, put it on top of the pool table.
Got yourself in the train room.
Would you consider hiring a live-in conductor that could just run your trains and you just watch?
What does she look like?
Yes, Simeon.
Depending on what she looks like.
Well, you know, she's going to derail.
You can't go for a pretty conductor.
You got to get somebody that's going to run the trains on time.
Got bigger muscles than you.
Yeah, it knows how to put shit together.
Carve out styrofoam mountains and shit.
I got no interest in that.
Yeah.
Give me, like, you know.
There's got to be a guy in his like late 60s to early 70s.
How about a girl in her early 30s who just wears like the overalls?
You know what I'm saying?
You know?
You're not going to get the same effect you would at a fucking homeboy who knows what he's fucking doing.
Yeah, that's all right.
You'll deal with the ignorance.
I'll deal with the ignorance.
You hang around in the train store.
You wait for that fucking golden goose to walk in.
You're like, sir, have I I got a proposition for you?
Hey, I know you.
You're Brian Quinn.
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, you like the show, do you?
How much money, like, if I, if I was paying a guy like
full-time to live in
the basement.
You can't have a bedroom up in the quarters.
He has to stay in the basement.
Yeah, he's a train man.
Or I'll buy something breaks down.
I'll buy a caboose and put it like a real retired caboose and put it in the in the
40 hours.
He's on 40 hours a week.
Yeah, it's full time.
I would say you got to give him at least 50 grand.
I was going to say a grand a week, probably.
Just be on call on your beck and call 24 hours.
Because you know there's going to be a 1 a.m.
train emergency.
You're going to be like, I want to see him run.
Light it up.
Like Prince playing with his fucking llamas at three in the morning and shit.
Get them
an old set.
That's not the exact one I got, but that's
$50,000.
Choo-choo, motherfucker.
Can it go faster?
It's as fast as it can go, Mr.
Coyle.
Does it go in reverse now?
How about if I make it $70,000?
Can it go faster than that?
$100,000 is my final offer.
Now let's go.
So that's it.
There is a, that's, that's 30, that's a R30 subway set for $1,000, bud.
Damn.
And where did you locate that?
Online?
Mine on
eBay or something like that.
Like maybe Etsy or Macari, one of those.
He's a thoughtful guy, isn't he?
Sure.
Like, it would never occur to me to get some sort of reproduction of something that my father built or worked on.
When he first started in construction, he worked on
East Point.
The big building.
The highest point on the East Coast, I believe it is.
Yeah, a huge
apartment or condo complex in the town that Walt and I used to live in.
And he did like the sheetrocking or something like that.
But it would never occur to me to get him a replica.
Oh, Jeff, you got a replica.
Why don't you just walk into East Point, go into the bathroom,
take a little chunk of the sheetrock out,
bring it back for you, bring him back to the house with you.
And be like, guess what this is?
And be like, this is an actual piece of sheetrock that you probably hung in East Point.
Yeah.
Oh, that job I hated doing 50 years ago because you were born?
Yeah.
I don't think it would be a warm father's son moment like the trains.
It was a nice, it was a nice moment.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It seems those are fewer and farther between when you get older, right?
Like well, your parents live in a different state.
They live in Florida, so you don't get to see them as much.
I see when I see my parents, Edgar can't hear shit anymore.
I think it's too many years of unprotected hearing
off.
The saws and all that stuff.
Yeah.
Because
you really have to shout.
Did you ever ask him like, why didn't you just wear ear protection?
You wouldn't be dealing with it.
Because I'm stupid.
And then we're off to the races.
But you're so smart, right?
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if it was a thing back then, like, because he didn't work like I was.
He's the boss.
I don't think OSHA came in and was like, hey, you got to follow all these protocols.
You knock the mall in the wall.
You just get like a blast of asbestos.
Right.
Yeah, exactly.
Those are the days.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was nice.
It was nice.
I'm glad I was able to find them.
Yeah.
It hurt to pay that much.
You have to look up the Northlands.
The Northlands.
In New Jersey.
Okay.
It is the largest.
Well, maybe get them to pull up on the computer, but it's like the largest indoor train
setup.
And me and Frank went there.
Really?
The missus there, and they were like, why are we here?
We're like, because there's nothing else to do in New Jersey.
Let's go.
But you have to see it.
It is insane how big it is.
Was it a Bride Tries or what if Bride Tries Railroading?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, well, I would think that you would want to come too.
Yeah, that's insane.
Definitely.
I'll come on that one.
Yeah.
But it is.
How far away is it from here?
It's about an hour and 15-minute drive from here.
North or south?
I don't even know.
I think it's
unknown.
I don't even remember.
It's all places I've never, all roads I've never been on.
And then when you get there, it is a massive building.
Yeah.
And it's like one eccentric dude who had so much money, built this train, started just like you, and then it got out of control.
And then he needed a fucking massive
storage for it.
And he just built a house, like a big building.
He's making money off it.
I don't know if he's making money.
When I was there, we were the only people in the building, and it's expensive to get in, but it is shockingly.
It looks amazing.
It's amazing.
Look at that.
It looks dessert to the Guinness Book World Records.
Yeah.
That's great.
Yeah, I just have a circle.
This could inspire you, though.
It could.
For greatness.
Well, maybe, like, I saw when Getham clicked on the website that they do birthday parties there.
So maybe I should have a birthday party there.
Has it got the big one coming up soon?
Well, we got 49 first, but you know,
isn't every year to be celebrated?
Yeah, but I mean, you want to do the Northland, but you want to do the Northlands on the big one.
Yeah, the big five up, yeah.
Look at like multi-tiers.
Get out of your topping.
Just blow my brains out.
Yeah, look at that.
Fake rivers.
And all you hear, there's nobody in the building.
I'm talking, it is a massive building.
All you hear is the sound of the trains going around.
Sounds so nice.
It's very soothing.
You feel a lot of ASMR vibe going on.
Yeah, I get it.
That train going, it'll rock you to sleep.
And the amount of effort to paint the
concrete to look like water and everything.
Yeah, it looks unbelievable.
When Ghetto first opened the website, it said it was a 306,000-hour build time.
So I guess they tallied how many hours they worked on it.
Yeah, this is something that has to be seen to be believed.
It's one of those things that it could close tomorrow, so you can get there.
You better get there if you want to see it.
Yeah, you don't want to wait till 50.
All right.
No.
All right, I'm going to check it out.
That's nice.
Thank you for telling me about that.
Yeah, I think you'd like it.
Did my, I made one suggestion recently
for the Patreon gifts where I could set a box car, tell them Steve Dave boxcar.
And do you remember that text I sent?
I did.
I looked into it.
You did you?
I looked into it.
Oh, because your response was not enthusiastic.
What was the response?
You're like, okay, something like that.
Should I be doing fucking cartwheels down the hall?
Hey, Ron, move out of the way.
I got to do a fucking cartwheel because Q.
I mean, I wouldn't mind that.
Hey, you know, good idea, like a little attaboy.
I said, okay.
I look into it.
Tough Love Flannagan movie.
You're not going to get that shit.
So he looked into it, no-go.
We did the Monopoly off your.
Jesus Christ, I can't fucking
take a seat and fucking bask in Monopoly.
Now I got a fucking
Tracy Q wants a fucking
engine that
has his face on it.
I got to fucking hop and run around.
I'm trying to help, man.
Chicken with my head cut off.
Just call your guy in China and get it done.
I don't know.
I did.
I did.
I looked up on Alibaba, which is where I look for all the stuff, and
for custom trains.
And they're little motherfuckers, though.
No, it's got to be O-gage.
Yeah, see, I don't know the terminology.
So I'm dealing with a person who doesn't have a great grasp of the English language.
So I'm like, well, I want to put this image on it, which was the three heads.
Yeah, yeah.
And
that they had would fit it where I felt it looked good.
I see.
Okay.
And she's like, you need to make your own mold.
And once I was doing that, I was like, fuck that.
Yeah.
I'll see what I can do.
Maybe, maybe I got a guy.
Okay.
Wow.
That goes.
You've got multi-levels.
Because also what I was thinking, too, is like, I don't even need China because I could buy a blank
train and just put a sticker on it.
Right.
A clear sticker.
Yeah.
But it doesn't look as good, though.
Right, right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Just ask him.
Just ask him.
We looked into it, though.
All right.
Thank you.
He wants to know why he doesn't have his box card yet.
I was bitching him on to his dad.
I wish I could have shown you my
TSD.
Caboose.
You play Monopoly Pop, I guess.
Here's my picture on a fucking $1,000 bill, but I really want to show you my picture on a caboose.
It's a fucking idiot's jersey.
It's them, Daddy.
Can't get shit done.
Yeah, these guys, Chinese, they're all a bunch of fuck-ups.
I suggested it two weeks ago.
I don't know why it's not here.
He said, okay, Daddy.
I'll show you the text.
He said, okay.
That's a promise, right?
You see that?
That's a promise.
Well, maybe also somebody who's listening, who's into trains too, can point us in the right direction because this is really outside my
knowledge of merchandising.
I've never been in a train, so I don't even know who to contact other than Alibaba.
And you would have gotten a little train if you didn't know about O gage.
Yeah, I don't even know what O gage meant, but I was even thinking, like, if we got a bigger train, a beefier one, but then it wouldn't go on a track, right?
Just because for looks and aesthetics, it would look better on a shelf, but you want it to actually go on your track.
Well, the bigger ones would look better on a shelf anyway because they're visually more.
I meant the size of one like a shoebox.
No, that's too big.
Why is that too big?
Because that would look fucking dope on a shelf.
Because I can't make you go around
under my pinball, as you can see.
All right.
I'm paying this guy $100,000 a year to fucking do this.
I thought you wanted one.
Remember the toy, Richard Pryor, those big giant trains you used to ride on?
Yeah, the toy, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I wouldn't mind that in my yard going around on that.
Shit.
Oh, Brian's, I know what he's doing right now.
He's fucking, he's owned out.
He's getting an ad.
No, the ads are already up.
We're only 16 minutes in, so I'm not going to.
Oh, you have a time span where you're like, I can't do an ad before a certain mark?
Yeah, I usually like to get in by half.
Oh, it's your call, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, okay.
All right.
I thought this was a reason.
Yeah, I figure wherever there's like, sometimes if there's a good break, then I'll do it.
But like, if we're talking and having a good time,
Miyandi's is like, we can't have an ad placed five minutes into the show.
It has to be past the 10-minute.
Oh, no, no, no.
Miandis is pretty good about that.
But I mean, now that we've stopped down, I might as well fucking breathe.
People are waiting.

I think we talked about that one time, didn't we?
That was like years and years and years ago.
We had my ex-Melanie did one for us.
Yes.
Yeah.
I knew somebody did one.
Let me see if I can find that commercial.
All right.
Maybe we'll drag it out.
Yeah, nobody wants to hear me do it half-hearted.
Yeah, I'm just trying to give, you know, just trying to shake it up.
Mix it up.
She had a good voice for it.
Yeah.
She was good.
Yeah, she was really good at it.
She was good.
Let's see.
Okay, then I'll read a second one and then we'll be done for now.
Although there's a bunch of stuff blocking out.
Tradacted?
No, it's just like they placed it over the copy so I can't read it.
So I'm going to say.
It sounds cooler because a lot of this ad copy has been redacted.
You can't say this.
Yeah.
Oh, we got plenty of that, especially with Raycon.
We were the reason that they started the rule you can't talk about certain people when referring to Raycon.
Oh, there's even certain people that can't be mentioned.
Yeah.
Well, I bet you I could take a guess.
I bet you could.
I bet you'd be right.
Raycon's Everyday Earbuds are your perfect partner for the gym worker phone calls offering premium audio that goes where you go.
They fit into my everyday life by using them when I go to sleep.
I like listening to
this.
Now I listen to this thing called Criminally Listed.
It's this guy.
He has the weirdest voice and the weirdest inflection when he's talking.
Okay.
Like he talks like this.
Their latest model is better than ever with a 32-hour battery life.
Like it's real like, it's almost like the ASMR.
That's what you were saying.
Deck Garrison guy, Garrison Keeler.
Garrison Keeler.
Yeah.
And that's, let's see, okay, so their latest latest model is better than ever with a 32-hour battery life, multi-point connectivity that lets you pair with two devices at once.
And speaking of battery, Raycon's quick charge function is just 10 minutes of charging, yields 90 minutes of battery.
That's pretty good.
These earbuds also come with active noise cancellation, which is often difficult to find at an accessible price point, but not with Raycon, which starts at just half the price of other premium audio brands.
Raycon's Everyday Earbuds are also available in a variety of vibrant colors for styles that complement yours.
Minor black.
That's what I like.
I also have a blue pair.
What makes me love my Raycons?
I fucking told you already, man.
In fact, since I already told you, I'm going to tell you about Sunday Jeff loving his Raycons.
He takes them on the airplane.
He finally got a pair?
Oh, I gave him a pair a long time ago.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, he says he loves them.
And if you don't fall in love with your Raycons like Sunday Jeff, they offer a 30-day happiness guarantee return policy with no questions asked.

That's buyraycon.com/slash T-E-S-D.
Okay, so those two are done.
Let me just go two more for later on.
Okay.
We got to pay because last week we didn't have any.
That's right.
So now this week.
You got to pay to Piper this week.
Here's the Piper.
The Piper's Myundi's Prize Picks.
Raycon and Adam and Eve.
All right.
What do you got going on, Keith?
Yeah, so I wanted to get your advice on something
involving Telling Steve Dave Town.
Really?
Residence.
Yeah, I had lunch with Chuck yesterday.
Snaton?
Chuck, yeah, my boy.
And, you know, we're talking about the Q West thing, the comedy festival I'm throwing together in April in Q West.
And I had mentioned again how much I would love if Jimmy the Hare Guy was there.
And I got a lot of information on that.
There's a Juggalo event that weekend.
There's an Insane Clown Posse event that weekend.
And then Chuck expressed the opinion.
And I couldn't tell if it was coming directly from Chuck or if there was an element of Jimmy the Hair guy's opinion in this.
But I think when my eyes lit up, Chuck started to cover a little bit.
But Chuck,
at least we know Chuck feels that maybe
Jimmy the Hair guy should be treated as like, yeah, now why don't you come down and just hang out and have fun?
Because, you know, you're a fun new part of the show.
And
Jimmy the Hair Guy should be talent and treated.
And put to work.
And
not put to work.
He should be treated as talent.
Really?
Yeah,
he should be brought down.
You know, his flight hotel should be paid.
It shouldn't just be like, let me give him free ticks
to the event.
It should be
pay for him to come down, put him up in the hotel, and, you know, know treat him with the respect that a man of jimmy the hair guy commands yeah yeah is what i was told and i was like oh oh yeah
and and i was picking away at it and it did seem like maybe that was jimmy's opinion really yeah so i'm not quite sure exactly what i thought he would have been jazzed to just be like he does strike me as the kind of guy that's happy for anything like you know anything thrown his way he's like he's psyched about it yeah but did i misread the the situation?
Is he bigger than?
He's pretty big.
Yeah.
I mean,
he's the bell of the ball at all the Juggalo events.
Yeah.
Yeah, he is.
Right.
If this was a Juggalo event.
How is he the bell of the ball?
How do you guys know that?
He gets to hang out with those clowns, like at their personal
homes and everything.
I think his girlfriend has massaged one of the insane clown posse.
Yeah, the wives.
One of the wives, and that's how they got to take a shower in the house.
I'm pals with Shaggy too, though.
I mean, mean, don't I count for anything?
He's one of the two in St.
Thomas.
So what?
We're talking on CP here.
Oh, so you've been at his home, though?
No, I have not been at his home.
Well, there's a big difference.
You're absolutely right.
Wow.
So did I misread him?
So what's the...
So you didn't offer those things?
Like, is Brian not getting that?
Brian's getting it.
Brian's performing.
Oh, but if Jimmy comes down, he's not on stage.
No.
Literally, I just wanted him to come down to be part of it because he's Jimmy the hair guy.
He's part of it, and what would be his
involvement and just watch.
Just have fun, man.
Just be like a Tennessee Town representative.
Yeah, he doesn't have to do anything.
Like, yeah.
I mean, just be there.
Yeah, but I mean, it's an expensive endeavor to get down there for, you know, a couple.
I don't disagree.
Yeah, so
you couldn't give him a set, like, to get up on stage and just give him, like, a couple of bucks for, like, doing some stand-ups?
I mean, I guess I could put him on, like, we've had, like, stand-up comedians, like agents come at us for money.
And we've been like, look, we're not really paying.
Like, it's not really that sort of thing.
It's like, it's come hang out, you know, pay for flight and hotel and stuff like that.
And what?
Get him.
What?
Your hands raised.
You're going to talk, talk on Mike.
James and I did discuss sharing a room.
Do you mean the hair guy?
Yeah.
Wait, so you think you're going to come?
Yeah, I'm seriously considering it, yeah.
Because I don't need a real ID or anything right now, so
oh, I'd get your room for sure.
Yeah, and I said Jimmy, and then James and I could share a room.
Okay,
look at that.
Now, what about Jimmy's girl?
How's she going to feel about that when Giddam?
You shared a room with Giddam.
Is that any place for a woman?
Oh, is the is the girl coming too?
Yeah.
Well, I'll come on Mike.
I'm not sure.
Okay, well, what's the big deal, though?
Did we just share a room?
Yeah,
I know they're new, bait and they're newlyweds, but they can't fucking calm down for one fucking weekend with Giddam's in the room.
No, no, man.
Like, it's Key West, so it's got to be nice and warm and tropical and romantic.
And then you're tropical debris coming.
But they are.
Those juggalos, they don't really care about
privacy.
Oh, that's true.
You could be a sex table for them.
So, does, but do you think, well, do you think that Jimmy the Hair guy, like, like I just said to get him, if you want to come, bud, I'll get you a flight and hotel okay that's get him i've known the guy how many years all right so let's say this on monday we're recording some patreon content okay jimmy's involved in it yeah i pay him yeah
yeah no no but he's not doing anything he's just i invited him just to come down and have fun
okay but it maybe he maybe he thought he's performing and he's he's like working on all his jokes and shit he did perform on the cruise he did a he won a rap battle against me which is nice so maybe he thought this was the same kind of situation that he would be
pulled up on stage and everything.
I'm not arguing a point.
I'm asking your opinion.
Like, if that's true, then
I misread the situation then.
Have you?
So you feel that Jimmy the hair guy is now of a caliber that he don't show up for free?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I feel
he's definitely injected some fresh young blood
couldn't agree more
into the
TSD brand.
Too bad it's run through dialysis.
I'm not saying he like he's like, you know, he gets,
you know, it's BQ's Key West, and then
with Jimmy the Heritage.
The undercard of Jimmy the Herrick.
That would actually be really funny if you did that.
Like, Maybe, you know, hey, here's share the room with Giddam, and here's a couple bucks.
But if you don't really know.
Nobody's getting bucks.
Okay, well then, okay, but he doesn't know that, though.
Right.
So,
and if I'm paying him,
when he ever he appears, he gets something.
Yeah, all right.
So I don't maybe hear.
So do the cats in my yard.
What's up?
So do the cats in my yard, the stray cats in my yard.
When they appear, they get something, too.
Yeah, but I don't, I don't, but he's getting tattoos on camera for us.
No, no, I'm not, I don't want to sound like I'm
that I disagree that he's he's okay.
That cat comment did make it sound like you disagree.
No more to me than a common house cat,
probably less feral,
feral, even,
you know what?
That's the I'm just looking for advice.
You know what I mean?
When the lines get blurred between when a listener makes that jump from the over the
moat that surrounds TSD town from the rest of the world, once a listener gets over there and then starts becoming a regular
person that appears on podcasts and then
all of a sudden, you know, I'm like, I don't want to take advantage of them.
And, you know, and I give them because it's on Patreon.
We're making money.
They should have some money too for appearing.
I can see why
he would be like, well, isn't this just another TSD appearance?
Yeah.
But
this is BQ's.
Yeah.
There's plenty of Jokers fans coming and stuff like that that don't even know who he is.
Right.
And the tickets, I think there's like
eight tickets left.
So it's not like we're relying on Jimmy the Hair guy to move tickets.
There we go.
But those eight, if he can move those last eight tickets, so that would be exciting.
That would be.
But I wonder, all right, so you think that Chuck's probably on the ball then?
Jimmy the Hair guy is at a get him.
Well, Chuck's the one who suggested that Jimmy the Hair guy was a treaty.
Yeah.
As a talented.
And what does that come with?
Like, what is like some of the other people who are appearing on stage?
What are they?
They're getting nothing but a room?
Room and flight.
Yeah.
Which is no cheap investment, right?
I mean, that's got to cost a lot of money.
No, it's thousands of dollars, right?
Yeah, you got to be be careful with an event like this.
You could go into the red real fast if you keep on giving away rooms and lights and shit like that.
Well, like I said, I mean, that takes care.
If Giddam, if you're going to give a room to Giddem, just he has to share it.
I mean, that's just like you gotta, you're not
there yet.
You know, he's still, you know, a newbie.
Like,
if you want to use the fire house term, proby, proby.
Proby.
He's telling him to Dave Town Proby.
You know.
Right.
But I don't know if it's enough for him.
I mean, I would, I have, I have been in the room with the guy,
and
I would be shocked, though.
But you could be right, though.
I don't know.
Behind closed doors,
everybody's
estimation of their self-may be different than what they put out there when
they're dealing with me and everything.
But he seems like a guy that would be like,
Mr.
Quinn, you want me to make you room for you?
You want me to drive you anywhere around Key West?
I'm not getting that feeling.
I'm not getting that feeling.
I thought that
when I brought him on the cruise, that I had bought me some goodwill.
It would be like,
one hand washing the other hand.
Oh, but he won the rap battle.
He's like, we're even.
You're right.
You know why?
You're absolutely right.
You're right.
You're absolutely right.
So I guess I just got to start thinking about Jimmy the Hair guy in terms of more transactional.
again, what do you want him to do when he's down at Key West?
Just be in the room and Clad handing
and
looking.
I wasn't even looking for that.
I literally was like, I know Jimmy would like this, he's become an important part of the show.
Why not reward the guy?
He's, you know what I mean?
Like, reward him with.
Just come on down and hang out.
Like, you don't have to pay for the ticket to come in.
He's going to get VIP access to everything.
Yeah, he doesn't have to pay.
Okay.
Yeah.
So you are giving something.
I thought I was, but it appears like maybe I was not.
I'm sure Chuck is going to love that.
You revealed all this.
I'm like.
Well, Chuck, I think it was standing up for his friend.
Like, I think it makes puts Chuck in a good light.
Like, he wasn't like, can you believe this fucking Jimmy the Herrera guy?
I'm surprised he would tell it to you, though.
The one guy.
Like, I was running it.
You got to go to the top on this.
And so your reaction when he said that was.
Oh, I can't wait to tell the guys.
What does Brian think, though?
I think that if,
okay, he's sharing a room.
It doesn't cost you really anything to let him in.
No.
Well, every person that's on my guest list is another ticket.
There's another ticket.
I could have sold.
Right, yeah, that's true, too.
So there is a sunken cost.
That's true, too.
I think that if he's put to use, I mean, we're doing two Space Monkey shows.
Yeah.
There's no reason we couldn't put him to use there.
Yeah.
Or in his keep.
Yeah, but.
How many nights is this?
It's Friday and Saturday night.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I guess, but I guess like I didn't really think about it.
It's the first, interestingly enough, really like the first person who I consider part of my
inner circle or friends or people I know, he's the first person to, there be a transactional nature brought up to it.
Everybody, like, Gatto was just like, I'm fucking coming.
And I was like, let me get your plane ticket.
He's like, you're not getting my plane ticket.
Murray is like, well, I'll be there.
So, you know what I mean?
So it's like, you know, it was the first person who I considered a friend that was kind of like, well,
what's in it for me?
This isn't good enough for me.
I think it all boils down to finances and taking off time from work.
Yeah, although with this new Juggalo
revelation, I wasn't aware of that.
Oh, so he's using that as leverage on BQ?
He's got other plans that we're
move.
I'm not looking to cast him in a bad light on asking opinions here.
Like, I totally understand the perspective of being like, look, bitch, I don't work for free, and I don't come to your lame-ass little event for free.
Fuck you, pay me.
I understand that.
Okay.
I do.
I was just surprised to have it come
from Jimmy the hair guy
towards me.
Through his representative.
Yeah, I think Walt's right.
I think it's like he would be there, but the finances, because they are saving for the wedding and everything.
Sure, I think.
Totally understand.
I think that's the main reason that he wouldn't come down by himself.
But I mean, if Chuck's suggesting that he gets paid and nobody else does, that's.
I guess that's just something Chuck didn't know.
Yeah.
Everybody's doing it just because they want to do it.
Everybody's doing it just to go down there and have a party.
Hang out and have a panic.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The finances of this thing are,
you know,
it's probably ended up costing me money in the end to do this.
But I just want to do something really fun.
So you might be in the red on this.
Oh, oh well i have no doubt i'm i personally be on the red on this yeah for sure maybe so how how can we fix it so you're not in the red
uh
i don't know sorry get them offer resend it
i don't know i look maybe it won't be in the red maybe it'll break even you know what i mean like there it definitely is this isn't a profit-driven game that we're into okay um and the reason i you know certainly i'm at that stage where it's like i just want to do things that are just fun and with my friends which is where it was kind of came from,
which is kind of
why my heart had opened up to Jimmy the Hair guy on the cruise.
I was like, I get it.
Remember, I walked off that cruise being like, I get it.
I get the Jimmy the Hair guy thing.
I totally get it.
You didn't get it until then.
I didn't get it until the cruise.
Really?
And now I'm like, well, I couldn't imagine throwing a party without having Jimmy the Hair guy there.
Now you might have to.
And now I have to because I might not be able to cough up enough money.
Another plane to get him there.
Another flight.
Yeah.
That's the
ugly side of the business.
Like people just want to, you know, they think it's all yucks and
kumbaya.
It's a business here.
At the end of the day, it is a business.
And
you have your
financial
picture that you have to, that you see, and other people see their own financial picture.
So,
you you know, it's.
I thought I was making a mint up until a couple minutes ago.
We'll talk about that off camera, buddy.
Go with the narrative right now.
Slush funds.
I'm sure he
Troy's coming.
Troy didn't ask for like.
Yeah, Troy's going to be there.
I guarantee you.
Troy was even like, I'll buy a ticket.
I don't want a free ticket.
He may have, he might not, when he hears this, he might not even make it to the end of the episode before he goes in the bathroom and blows his brains out because he's probably so stressed out hearing this.
Jimmy?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think they're instead of planning a wedding or they're planning a funeral because
I think he's probably like so fucking like sweaty and his stomach is probably like about to throw up because BQ is
taking it behind the woodshed basin.
Oh no, he's just fucking beating the shit out of him.
I'm not looking to do that.
That's not what I'm looking to do here.
I'm not looking to do that.
Jimmy, no!
Why'd he do it?
Pay for his own flight.
He wanted a 200 bucks.
BQ said no.
Maybe you're going to ask him what he wants.
Would you be willing to.
Now I'm negotiating.
How do I get a guy to all this?
Negotiate.
It's a major conflict of interest, and I get nothing from it.
You're my friend.
You're a good mediator.
Yeah.
You brought to me a hair guy screaming into this world.
We all did.
He came on Mike.
The first time he's on Mike is because he buys the hair.
We all agreed to bring him on and talk to the maniac that would pay that kind of money for
hair.
You're right.
You're right.
All of a sudden, it's my fault.
All right.
Okay.
I am not.
I want to be very clear to everybody that I'm not looking to put.
Like, I'm trying to work this out because I could be, you know, wrong.
That's why I wanted to hear your guys' opinions on it.
I don't think you're wrong.
I just think you're looking at it from
the point of view that
it's tough to take off the time and not get paid for me.
Unless he has time.
Totally understand.
I don't know.
He told me they couldn't fire him anymore.
Like if he's falling or something.
I just don't know why Chuck tells you, though.
Like, to me, I don't know why Chuck tells you because that's like.
Well, I brought up,
we were talking about the QS thing, and I brought up.
Is Chuck going?
Chuck's going?
He bought a ticket?
No, Chuck didn't buy a ticket.
Chuck's working for me there.
Is he getting paid?
He's getting paid, but he's doing
editing, shooting, editing.
It's a little different.
And he'll be on the job a lot of the time.
He'll be working the whole time, dude.
Yeah.
He might need it.
But that's the thing.
He might need another cameraman.
Maybe Jimmy could be
camera Bristol
or something.
Yeah, I could, I could, I, I just, yeah.
All right.
My instinct was like, Jimmy the hair guy, just come down and hang out.
I didn't think about the financials around it.
Although, you're right, he is going to the fucking
to the Juggalo event.
The Jalgolo event, yeah.
So it's all.
And every time I fucking open Instagram, they're in a different Broadway play.
I guess they got to save money, and I'm, I'm where they're here's you didn't make the cut.
All right.
Well, all right.
I mean, so do you think that I should
I correct course and pay Jimmy the hair guy to show up?
What would you be comfortable paying him knowing that the rest of your cast and
performers aren't getting anything?
What are you coming?
Shadow, Murray, Rachel, Major Delpha.
Yeah, like, what are you comfortable saying publicly?
Nobody's getting the time.
Let's think about that.
Is five Gs off the table?
Is that the table?
It sounds like that would be off the table.
That's a lot.
It sounds like that would be off the table.
I mean, it is a major event, though.
It is.
I'm trying to get Fatone down there.
You know, I got to pay money for his flight and stuff.
But maybe I cut Joey Fatone and 500 then?
On top of the flight and hotel?
Well,
is Giddam staying in the hotel with him?
Is staying in the room?
This is coming to me in real time.
It's hard to do it, though.
It sounds like they think it'll be like a fun experience.
So, do you think that if it's Jimmy, we get the hotel, we get him, right?
Again, coming out of my pocket, but that's fine.
And then, airfare for Jimmy.
Why don't you just make him drive down?
It's like it's to the end of QS, it's like 26 hours.
The flight's like $250.
Okay, all right, all right.
So,
now it sounds amenable, though, right?
Not so bad, right?
$250.
It's nothing.
Yes.
All right.
So get him.
So
then you have $500 on top of that, maybe to work a camera to help Chuck out in certain areas.
And then also, you know, we may also ask you to come up on stage during a space monkey.
We may not, but
it's you're this floating employee for the weekend.
Right.
Okay.
Get me, get me my booze.
Jimmy.
Jimmy.
Hi.
My cup's empty.
Oh, wow.
So, so, wow.
So, it would be Flight Hotel, which is where it ends for everybody else, but then also $500 to maybe run a camera for Chuck and fill up my drink if needed.
And come on stage.
And come on stage.
And definitely put him on stage if he's got paid.
There's no doubt about that.
Oh, boy.
I mean, you think he would take?
You think he would take $300?
I think he would take it.
Yeah.
But do you want to be
do you want to and then have like that out there, though, like him like resentful and bitter, you know, and he always looks back on that, like, yeah, it should have been the happiest weekend of my life.
That free trip to Cuba sucked.
I only made $300.
Daddy Warbucks, fucking hue, you know, fucking pinching every fucking dime at my expense.
You know,
what comes out of Jimmy the Hair Guy's bottom line.
And then he doesn't realize I had to pay those drinks that I fucking got him.
He never even reimbursed me.
He's paying reimbursement.
He reimbursed me for my drinks.
I'll catch you later, Jimmy.
He was so fucking.
I gotta go.
I gotta go.
I gotta go.
Wow.
I don't know.
You're in a tricky, tricky spot.
Like I said, you know the weekend won't suffer if he's not there.
No, it won't.
It won't.
It'll be missing a little maybe just throw up against it.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That's just reality, though.
That's true.
You know, that's just real.
He's still
not at that stature where,
like.
He's going to put asses in seats.
Yes, exactly.
I think that's not a slight.
That's just the way it is.
He's coming a little bit too late in the game because, like, Hugh's already arranged some big names.
And on top of it,
all the tickets are sold pretty much.
So it's not, like you said, like if he were coming in and could, like, you know, holy shit, Jimmy, the hair guy's going to be there, I'm there.
Yeah.
That might make it a little bit more worth it.
But now, yeah, it just seems like an extraneous expense.
Yeah.
Honestly,
I thought he was going to be fucking jazzed.
Like the cruise.
How it was like, dude, I got you on the cruise.
Don't worry about it.
Just book your flight.
Come on down.
I thought he would be equally
as excited to hear that.
So you think there must have been a private conversation between he and Chuck?
We're like, I don't know, dude.
I don't think Chuck formed that opinion on his own.
No, that's what I'm saying.
Chuck didn't come to you and say, Hey, Q, don't be cheap.
No, I think Jimmy the hair guy said something to Chuck, and Chuck tried to approach it on like to be a good friend to Jimmy.
And I saw through it.
Try to be diplomatic.
Yeah, and I was like, Who is this coming from?
I'll pull the wall over my eyes.
You can hear me out.
Yeah.
The trains you brought for your dad.
Yeah.
Are they returnable?
I mean,
you already got the experience.
Return the trains.
Use that $1,000.
Right.
Put it in Jimmy's pocket.
Everyone's happy.
Yeah, that might not be a bad idea.
It's like selling my television now.
Well, you already got, you know, you're not going to run those trains again.
I mean, next time dad comes down and he's like, yeah, you want to do the train that you used to drive?
I'm like,
it's over.
We did it over the time.
The manager returns.
But to me, the air guy is
forever.
Well, the memories,
the memories will last forever.
Yeah.
Yeah, if he weren't to come, I think he needs a task.
I think Walt's right about that.
I get, I mean, Ming's doing, you know, we got Ming Chen there.
We got Ming Chen.
And again, Ming is like, flight, hotel, good for me.
Yeah.
Like, happy to be there.
Happy to come down.
Happy to be a part of it.
The point is, like, everybody's only going to have to work for about like fucking 40 minutes.
And then the rest of the time, the only persons that are working the whole time are me and Jiggy.
Everybody else gets like these 40 40 minutes, and then it's it.
They can just hang out.
We have a private artist resident, like a house, this beautiful mansion down there that we have that, like, everybody's gonna be able to hang out at the pool, like, you know, do whatever.
How much is this mansion costing?
Well, we got it, we got it on like a sponsorship deal thing.
Oh, okay.
So it's not cost, right?
And you're still not making money?
You're still in the rent?
You got to rent the theater?
You got to get in the hotel.
You got some good fucking guys working on your books, man, that you can write everything off as a loss.
You know, as far as scrum stay, still hasn't made a time in Hollywood.
You're paying not one person to come, but BQ's out of pocket somehow.
How does this work?
It's nuts.
This shit's expensive.
Yeah.
So, oh, so the mansion, though, no one's staying in the mansion?
No one's sleeping in the mansion?
No, no, the mansion
has some talent staying in there as well.
But not all the talent can't stay there.
No, we want everybody to be comfortable.
Okay.
So someone can host it.
There's mansion-grade guests.
I think you could name that.
You could probably draw that list
right now if you'd like.
Gato's not staying at the mansion.
Gatam's not at the mansion.
Brian Johnson's at the mansion.
Does he get the address in case he wants to stop by?
Yeah,
he gets all access.
So, what if he gets drunk and falls asleep on the couch?
Totally fine.
And he sleeps at the mansion then.
That's okay.
Okay.
That's all right.
I mean, I'm not sleeping at the mansion, so it's fine.
No,
I didn't want to take one of the mansion rooms, so I got like a hotel room.
Good guy.
Yeah.
Okay.
Not even a suite, Walt, just a
regular hotel room.
That's, I'm trying to keep cross down here.
You know what I'm saying?
Salt of the earth.
Yeah.
Spending all my money on drinks.
I like when you try to impress Walt with your down-to-earthness.
And he's like, whatever.
Not even a sweet Walt.
Now, get him, what do you need to come down?
Is it just flight hotel?
You're okay with that?
Yeah, I'm good.
I'll drop your golf cart.
I'm just a fucking guy.
See, that's what I thought.
That's what I thought I was going to get from Jimmy the Hare guy.
Just like, yeah, I'd love to be there.
I can't wait to be there.
Like he gave me a.
He's on vacation for Walt?
How many days has he gone?
Well, he can get there Friday and leave Sunday.
Oh, so it's only three days.
I mean,
okay.
I mean,
I'm never here on this Saturday and Sunday anyway, so it's no vacation.
You can't keep him for a week.
We can get him down there like a week.
I'll get him down there Wednesday.
You can't take him back to Staten Island for the rest of the duration of the week.
You can furlough him for a week.
You can tell him to stay in his basement for a week.
What does that mean?
I've heard that word furlough.
I don't know.
It's when you don't lose your job, but you're not working.
Yeah.
I think he's been doing that for the last year.
He hasn't done any job.
Go look out there.
I mean, that's.
It's all permanent furlough.
How's the costume room looking?
Well, that picture that Chuck gave us is still in the same spot it was last week.
Did it get hung up?
Didn't get hung up yet.
What about the costume room?
How's it looking?
I haven't looked at it.
You haven't looked at it.
How's it looking good?
I put it on my mic.
Put him on my mic.
Okay.
We took a little bit of a hit yesterday trying to find some stuff.
So.
What is that?
What do you mean I had to find some stuff that was from when we first moved in, so it was way back in the costume room, and I had to pull it out.
Yeah.
Oh, so you mean you messed it up looking for it?
Yeah, yeah.
But see, once the room is in order, you'll never have to rip things apart to get at things again.
Get some shelving in there.
That's not necessarily true.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Because there's stuff behind the costumes, and that's where this was.
I see.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
So not so he's furloughed.
So, yeah, that.
I don't know.
That's.
I don't want to even get into it with him because it's a losing battle.
But
I don't know what to tell you.
I think I'm sure after this, though, Jimmy is going to be there and he's not going to accept any money.
I think he should stay true to himself.
I think he should.
It's hard, though, to say that.
Hold your feet to the fire.
When you're fucking
when there's a whole episode devoted to your greed.
But I'm trying not to present it that way.
I'm trying not to present it.
I'm sure you tried, but I think you failed miserably.
it's unappreciative jimmy the hair guy for not
just whatever crumbs bq threw out he didn't eat them fast enough
sorry jimmy i mean i don't think the cruise was a crumb that's not that's definitely not a crumb no yeah all right all right all right you know what i'll just i'm just gonna take jimmy the hair guy off the
off the docket he's yeah i'll just take him off i i don't want any any any weirdness yeah yeah yeah and when you guys see each other again it won't be weird right you won't wink it weird or will it always be be weird now?
No, I think it'll be okay.
I don't think.
Because he is, you know, he's a great guy.
He's offering to go get me trains at a train shop near him and stuff like that.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Nice dude.
Nice dude.
Nice job which is why I wanted him there.
Not that bad.
I couldn't book him.
I couldn't get him.
He's out of your price range.
You know what I should do?
I should get Shaggy too dope to come down now.
I just text Shaggy and be like, oh, you can come down.
Wow.
Okay.
Yeah, I wonder what this Drugalo event is.
There's so many throughout the year, man.
Every time you turn around, there's a different Juggalo event.
It's a fun community, man.
Yeah.
You have to remember, though, Jimmy was a Juggalo before he was into TSD.
So, you know, you can't use that against him if he chooses the Juggalo
experience over the TSD experience.
You can if the TSD experience happens so infrequently, though, right?
Well, you can also if you're getting paid for it, too.
That's true.
Those are the two instances.
Do you think the Juggalos are paying him?
No.
No.
Yeah, he gets paid infringe benefits.
Like you say, like, he gets to use a shower in the house, and he gets to hang out with the big wigs and shit like that.
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Well, what are you going to do?
He's like a heartworm.
He just gets in there, man.
Like, you know, buries himself.
He was great on the cruise.
I was just looking to hang out with him.
I was looking to, like, now that I like him, to get to know the...
the real Jimmy the Hare guy.
And like, maybe in QS, me and him get some one-on-one time to
hang out.
And I learned a thing or two about him.
I see that happening.
Yeah, they like all those big wigs down there, and all of a sudden
they can't pry you out of the corner with Jimmy the hair guy as you get to know him better.
Yeah, I
what fantasy world, what fantasy world is Q in that, like
he's hanging on Jimmy's every word that whole entire weekend when
all those people are in the mansion, like, Q, you coming over to the mansion?
No,
chilling with Jimmy.
Yeah, he's going to tell you about the struggle which he went to in 2007.
Yeah, well, you know, I'll never be i'll i won't get much downtime so
you know i won't be at that mansion either way all that much but
but what about the parties like the bars you know night yeah we we got we're doing the thing with irish kevins we're doing the thing with uh we got like an outdoor pool party one day and like jimmy the hair guy
i mean i know you put a lot of stock on parties but does the rest of the world does jimmy does anybody really care about parties i think so oh yeah pretty popular especially in p west yeah that's the only reason people go there.
Why wouldn't you be?
Yeah.
Like, I'll also out of it.
It's like, do people still party?
Yeah, you know, he'd be a fun presence at the parties.
Next time.
Yes.
I think it would be difficult, too, for him to leave his girl.
It seems they only do this kind of stuff in tandem.
Yeah.
Yeah, so he might not want to leave his lady, too.
Well, you know, she doesn't have to buy tickets to the event.
She can come.
But then you get the plane.
Now you got to pay her too.
Although she could, you could.
I mean, she would be.
Actually, you know what?
When you think about it, if she were like put on retainer and she's just giving everybody massages.
All right.
Well, now you're talking about she's a professional masseuse, then bring her, leave Jimmy home.
That might be something.
Like, like, set her up in the uh in the mansion.
In the mansion, yeah, as like a perk.
There's something to think about there.
There you go.
Yeah.
All right.
You know, like that idea, huh?
Well, I didn't say anything.
It's interesting.
Yeah, I was, I was, but I think Chuck was trying to do him a solid.
Okay.
You know, I don't think Chuck was trying to throw him under the bus or anything like that.
Right.
Doesn't seem like Chuck's style.
No, it's not really Chuck's style.
I don't, I don't find.
But all right.
When is this?
April 4th and 5th.
Okay.
And 6th.
There's like a
goodbye afternoon thing.
Two months from now.
Two months.
Goodbye show, you mean?
Or just no, like we're getting we're getting together at like uh we we have this hotel that's giving us uh access to like their
backyard patio that could fit all these people.
So maybe like a goodbye toast.
I think a lot of people Sunday morning are gonna hop on planes and get home.
But for anybody who's left, we figured like, yeah, let's just have like a little one last drink together
type thing.
It's a lot of parties.
It's a lot of part.
I'm trying to create a nice party for people.
Yeah.
So
it's all right.
It's all right.
It'll be okay.
Yeah.
It's all going to be fine.
It's going to be fine.
There won't be a paw over that party.
You know, you won't feel a little twinge of guilt.
I can't.
Or will you party as hardy as you might have after when you see that
missing
after a Jamison or two, yeah.
Yeah, I can answer for him.
He's going to be just fine.
I mean, I'll have the Maverick there.
The Maverick is fucking so so excited, man.
Is he?
He is fucking rare into go.
Okay.
Can imagine.
Yeah.
He's already.
Don't make these guys party too hard.
They're getting all advanced ages now.
I know.
You better make sure that, you know, you limit
them energy.
My guys ain't youngsters anymore.
You got to make sure you don't
forget that you guys aren't in your 20s.
Maverick,
you know, he looks like he's one drink away from fucking Keeling Over.
When I see him online, all his Instagram and shit.
His face is all red and shit.
Yeah, like he's fucking pickled constantly.
He's not going to be in the right place because the reason that I wanted to do it down there is because you could just wander around from bar to bar and just have a blast.
So that's kind of half the fun down there.
You can't have the event be a dry event?
No.
No.
Okay.
That makes people love that.
Save you some money, though.
No, no, no, no.
That's fine.
Because in between the shows,
we're programming things at local bars and stuff.
So that's how we're partnering with some of these bars.
And we'll bring you all these people and stuff like that if you give us the spot.
Oh, okay.
You know, just to try and get it going.
But right now, it's like not really overly,
there's not a lot of money changing hands.
It's more just like, you know,
handshakes.
Just trying to be part of the community down there.
You know what I mean?
And trying to have a party down there.
Just trying to have a good time.
That's all.
What's wrong with that?
I mean, that's my fucking thing.
It's always like, I just want to kind of like do this if it sounds fun.
And then, like, and that's one of of the reasons I'm doing this without agents and managers and stuff like that because the second you involve them it's like everybody wants money what's the money no well it's not even like they want money it's like how do we monetize this more and that's how you get into things that I think are a little unseemly like when you're like let me create things just to get people's money which I know makes me sound naive and stupid but like that's I don't know I'm kind of like I want to do it because it's fun did you see the in-action figures that are coming out I didn't though Chuck did tell me about this Yeah, they're awesome.
Joseph Bradasco, I hope I'm pronouncing that right.
Yeah, he
they're the ones that are in the case out there.
He did prototypes years ago, they're in the glass case out in the front
based on the Etching Ham art.
The in-action figures.
Yeah, they're just in-action figures.
I always wanted one of those.
You only got one soon.
That's exciting to me.
Yeah.
Wow.
I love that.
See?
Oh, that's great.
Does Kevin know we're ripping off his idea?
Oh, did he copyright in action
I don't think so.
Oh, you don't copyright in action.
Oh, okay, all right.
No, no, no.
Carol was fucking salivating.
She heard the news about it.
Rubbed her hands together.
Oh, right into my trap.
Those are them?
Those are them.
Oh, so I have those big size
in my office at home.
Yeah, Joseph sent me the files.
I sent those files to China.
Great.
And now they are
coming to the state soon.
Oh, look at that.
Nice.
Beautiful, man.
That's so cool.
And that's for, and that's instead of a boxcar.
Well, there's always going to be a lot of things.
There's always a need for merchandise, though.
Yeah.
You know, in this
way we've set it up.
Like, yeah, that boxcar will come, but it it probably will come.
It It took over a year for Monopoly, though.
These things take time, they don't happen overnight, right?
I, you know, it's not like going down and getting blotted in Key West and coming back in two days later.
It's like
there's a lot more to it.
The demon looks great.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, so these are all the waves.
Yeah, they're becoming over the course of next year.
That is nice, man.
Very nice.
All right.
Okay, all right.
So we'll wait and see what Jimmy says, but I want to be very clear to Jimmy because I know you're listening.
This is.
If you're still listening.
If you're still listening.
I hope you don't feel
you were put on blast or anything like that.
That's not what I was looking for.
Bottom line, fiscally, it doesn't make sense.
Unfortunately.
Look, if he shares a room again.
Maybe.
You know, and then it's just a matter of comes down to the flight and I guess 500 bucks.
We could talk about it.
I want Jimmy the hair guy there.
Yeah, of course.
I want him there.
For me.
Just really.
He has to be by your side in order to get it.
And you don't worry about.
Because this would be something that I would be very cognizant of and very stressed out by: is you don't worry about
inviting some members of
the TSD town, but others don't get the invite.
Like, you don't worry about
like, they're kind of being like setting
people like, oh, how come they?
You didn't until you're pecking order.
Oh,
who do you think should be on that?
I know, I didn't think there's anybody, but that's always something that I worry about.
Because I always forget somebody, you know, and then I feel bad when I'm like, oh, fuck, I forgot that to invite them.
I didn't really invite anybody.
I guess for some reason, Jimmy the hair guy was the only one I went after.
Right.
You know?
So maybe you're saying, like, Tom.
I'm Ming.
Well, Ming, yeah.
But, you know, but I've known Ming since I was 30 years at this point.
You know what I mean?
Nobody can be upset at that.
But who are we talking about?
Tom?
We're talking about Tom?
I mean, T-O-M, the maestro of Overkill.
I mean, he talked about it.
You could talk about the fast sector on space monkeys.
Right.
You're talking about fucking injecting the fucking straw that stirs all your drinks at these parties if you've got Tom there.
You're right.
Tom?
blown away would he be if he got a call from Q being like, I need you down at QS.
But, like, you see, that's like Tom is a guy that is like, he's first on my speed dial.
It's obvious he's not on yours, which is okay, but you got to think about that when you're talking about these things.
Because every time I hang out with these guys, they're talking about their kids and how no time they have.
So I'm like, I never get any pussy.
Yeah.
Only talk about shit that I can relate to.
What kind of pussy?
Pussy and trains.
Yeah.
All right.
So you think Tom
should get the invite.
I guarantee he'd say no if you texted him.
And then this way he at least get the,
you at least made the offer.
The hollow gesture.
Well, who else would be on that list?
Oh, my God.
Everybody.
The Franks loved Key West.
Franks.
Yeah, Troy, too.
No, Troy, Troy called me and is like, I'm coming down.
I want to come down.
I want to support you.
Are you better friends with Troy than Tom?
I think so.
I would say probably, yeah.
Rob?
Rob?
Rob?
Rob?
I don't even know his name.
No, I know him.
Who's that guy, Rob?
Rob, come here.
I need to talk to you.
Rob?
You were talking.
What?
What?
Rob?
Oh, you.
Come on, Rob.
You call me Rob.
Yes, sir.
What do you need?
Mr.
Q.
To be clear, I did that on purpose.
I just want everyone to know that.
Before that gets caught on and he feels bad, like I did that on purpose.
He did steal your cheeseburger once.
He did and ratted me out.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.
There's Johnny Law, a fucking
lawyer.
He shouldn't be relying on me to be like, do you need a free tick?
But it's the invite, though.
Dr.
D now, she's probably expecting a call.
She's going already.
She's going already.
Oh, that's right.
She's going.
She's going already.
Dr.
D's there already.
Tim, the record store clerk.
Tim,
I can't see going, but yeah.
Like, but these are like, this is how you calculate.
Like I do.
I'm like, I really don't need him there.
I'm texting, but I'm pretty sure if I say this, he'll say no.
And then you're like, then you cover yourself and you don't feel like there's any hurt feelings.
Okay.
It's a song and dance, you know, that you have to dance unless you don't care about looking like a jerk.
No, I do.
I do care.
All right.
Well, Tom, if you're listening,
rub if you're listening.
Tim, if you're listening.
You can go with his kids.
I'd love to have you guys.
They both have kids.
I can't go.
Well, you know, I would love to have them there.
Guys, you don't have to pay for ticks.
Do you think either of them are
in a marriage that they're like, hey, I'm going to go down to a party with Q for two days?
You take care of the kids.
Well,
they're married long enough to not use that phrase.
They're going to go down there and work
at an event.
So they're going to lie.
Let's not lying.
Florida.
I don't even feel like going, but Q says, I got to go.
Partying to be done or something.
I don't know.
Do people still party?
Wow.
Who knew this was going to happen?
A lot of politics.
Yeah, you got to make sure
you...
you play the game.
I did with
comedians that like the, I invited all our our opening acts over the years and stuff like that because I was like, I can't leave anybody.
Yeah, you don't want to snub anybody.
Yeah,
but also I wanted them there because they're friends of mine.
I guess Tom, T-O-M, and
Rub, and
the rest.
All the other ones that I don't talk to
and aren't allowed to talk to me unless
it's a special event.
It's a Christmas or anniversary episode.
Michelle, the shower would be shown.
Michelle would be awesome.
It'd be awesome to have them.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what happens.
There's so many people now you forget, and then you're like, oh my God, there's so many vital people, and you don't want to upset them or make them feel like, oh, I didn't make the grade.
You didn't make the grade?
Everybody makes the grade here.
Everybody.
I can't afford these guys.
I'm learning I can't afford these.
$200 a head
just to hang out?
Plus flight and hotel.
Yeah.
It's a demanding bunch, these Home Steve Dave Town guys.
They deserve it.
And it's our,
what's it called, our population is growing.
Yeah.
You know, every year.
So, you know, we've added Will Rogers.
We've added
Johnny Law.
There's,
you know, you've got to keep up.
Yeah.
You've got to keep a real Rolodex.
It's a lot, man.
All these people you never see or interact with.
You've got to get to know know them.
Oh, wow.
All right.
Wow.
Okay.
Well, you've given me a lot to think about, I guess.
And I think the answer is like, don't do this again.
Don't do it.
This is the first and last
comedy festival that I throw.
Because,
yeah, I guess I can't take it.
But get them.
I like that you're coming.
Like, you're possibly coming down.
Thank you.
That'd be nice.
That'll be fun.
Get them.
And, like, I don't really get to hang out with Gidem that much.
I'm a part of their little.
Yeah, they have a whole thing.
They all go out to dinners and stuff like that.
Yeah, they have group texts talking about people and shit.
Us talking about us.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Ratting out my wife.
Yeah.
Who did that?
I never found out.
And I don't think what will expose a source.
The source was a listener who emailed me.
Oh, I thought it was somebody from the group chat that we knew.
No.
Oh, okay.
A link was sent to me.
A link.
Like, have you seen this?
This is fucked up.
This will make your day better.
How was her response to the episode?
She didn't listen to the episode.
I did try to get
the cam footage, but it had recorded over it already.
And I asked her again, and she said it was just like, you don't understand.
It was in the context of the thread, which I couldn't find, of course.
She was like, I wasn't coming after him or anything.
I was like,
kind of sounds like a little bit.
Sounds like you were coming after me a little bit, right?
Look at that.
So unprovoked.
Oh.
Like the day that somebody sends me a link, and it's like Deb's on Facebook being like, Brian Johnson is this or that.
She would be well within her rights, too.
I just can't imagine it.
Yeah, she keeps all that shit, you know, just spoken in-house.
She doesn't go online and voice a whole lot.
She's saying it.
She said way worse than that you have a bizarre relationship with women.
Really?
Yeah.
I can imagine so.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's Jimmy's the hair.
That's the only time I hear a curse.
Oh, wow.
Really?
I cannot do it.
You start some F-bombs about you.
Yeah.
Wow.
Wow.
It's nice to know it can raise those kind of emotions in people.
Like Deb Flanagan usually even keeled.
Yeah.
Never heard her say a curse, I don't think.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Plenty of times.
Blue streak, huh?
Oh, yeah.
I know
when I hear an F-bomb, I'm like, oh, fuck.
Fucking cocksucker.
Yeah, it's like,
fucking cocksuck.
Fucking cocktail piece of fucking shit.
Jeez.
You know what I would say to her?
What's that?
I would say, at some point in our illustrious love lives, we've all asked our partner the same age-old question that guys have probably been asking for thousands of years.
No, she wouldn't ask this.
I should have never said that now.
I didn't have my glasses on, so I couldn't read the copy.
This is the contoured pouch and ball caddy for this Valentine's Day.
It can make you look huge.
I was thinking about what you said too, Wal, because you were like, what happens when it comes off?
And they're like, oh, you're not huge.
By that, it's too late, right?
Because it's dark.
Right.
But it's also, it's not like the gals haven't, you know, to me, I think.
They haven't stuffed sweat socks in their praise since the dawn of time.
They've all done enhancements that, like, when they take it off,
you know, makeup or whatever it may be.
It's like, we all engage in it.
So come after us.
Don't,
you know, don't be that shocked when we take off our bulk.
Yeah, it does.
It looks like a fucking
scrolled up little.
It's a nothing.
Every Valentine's Day.
It looks like fruit left out overnight.
You're like,
dehydrated.
They call me Raisin Cot.

Miyandi's signature fabric is as soft as a warm hug from your favorite sweater.
How does it even work?
Okay.
Yeah, like, how does
something make you look bigger?
Well, let's take a look at it.
Like, I don't know how does that even like, and if that does work, why aren't they doing it for jeans, too, then?
That's a good point.
You know, there should be a ball cat,
like Levi's or.
Yeah, like all men's genes should have this feature, then, if it really works.
The ball is lifted.
I still don't have any me on these, so I don't know.
Like, the ball is lifted and pushed forward
to present as a large penis.
That's what it looks like if you were to.
Okay.
And when normal
undies don't do that, though.
I guess not.
This has a modile pouch for support comfort, an ultra-soft modile fabric, an internal sling lifts and supports.
I guess it's like maybe not necessarily like maybe you can see it through your jeans, you know?
Maybe it's that fat and thick,
the ball caddy, that
you can see it right through the jeans, and that's really what it's for, not when you're like, just like you take off your pants and she's like,
then you take off the bulk hatty and she's like, uh.
Exactly.
Exactly.
So let's see.

They use sustainably sourced materials and work with partners that care for their workers.

Super Bowl this weekend.
Super Bowl this weekend.
What are you doing, Q, for the Super Bowl?
I'll be in Q West.
I'll be down there.
I'm there Saturday and Sunday and Monday setting up stuff for the festival, prepping, talking to some of our partners down there.
But I am bartending at a bar on Saturday, on Sunday.
During the game?
For a halftime.
Yeah.
I'm popping out.
Okay.
Poly bar.
Now, is that like
not a real,
you really can't serve drinks, right, without a license?
It's K-West.
They're real loosey-goosey down there.
Yeah, you don't need a license to serve drinks.
So if somebody gives you
an exotic drink, are you going to be able to make it?
Nah, I'm off a show.
I'm like a show pony.
I'll hand out beards.
Gotcha.
But I'll be behind the bar.
So you might miss the game then?
No, no, I'm watching the game and then going to the bar for the halftime to show face, help my boy out down there.
Who is halftime this year?
Who's a halftime specialty, you know?
Oh, gosh.
I think it's,
God, I can't remember his name.
I know.
It's like a country singer, I think.
Oh, really?
Country singer.
Wow, that's shocking to me.
Why?
Country singer?
Yeah.
I think it's his.
I think it's.
When the fuck was the last time they had a country singer do something like that?
Kendrick Lamar?
Yeah, isn't he a country singer?
He sounds like a country singer.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I think it was like RB or something.
Oh, okay.
Well, there's a rapper.
Yeah, see, you know, that
a rapper doing it sounds like what they've been doing the past few years.
I'm sure there's going to be plenty of guests, though.
Are you somebody who cares about the halftime show?
Because I find it to be so annoying.
It depends on who's doing it.
If it's an artist that I'm excited about, I'll be.
It's interminably long.
It kills all the momentum for the game.
Yeah, I don't mind.
Oh, I hate it.
I hate it.
I'm sorry.
Well,
prize picks.
Prize picks is the best place to be.
Who's your pick for Super Bowl, Bry?
I'm going to pick the Chiefs, I think.
Three Pete?
Mm-hmm.
Q?
I'm going to go with Philly just because I live closer to Philly.
Philly.
Tom's fucking happy.
Philly fans deserve no happiness.
They really don't.
They're awful, right?
They're terrible.
Yeah, they're terrible people.
All right.
Yeah.
Chiefs, it is then.
Well, I don't want to, you know, don't change your pick just because Philly's scum of the earth, but
repugnant fan base of fan bases.
Okay.
Yeah, they're Philly guys.
They get scrappy down there.
They're a scrappy best.
That's a nice choice of words.
Did you see that kid?
He was like a college kid.
He was like 18.
He climbed up the pole and fell off.
No.
Killed.
Yeah.
Like right after they won their last game.
Oh, my God.
They were celebrating in the streets and he climbs up a light pole.
Scrappy, baby.
Yeah, he's like, I'm scrappy.
That's awful because it's like
a life snuffed out because.
Because some team won.
Yeah.
Like, you couldn't control it.
You couldn't just cheer.
Yeah.
You couldn't just be happy.
Nope.
You got to be like, hey, man, this is about me.
I thought they greased all the poles down there.
I guess not.
Not this one.
Maybe they did.
That's what happened.
Yeah.
Slipped off.
Poor guy.
They loved it.
Did the fire department in charge of that, you think?
It's greasing all the poles, so nobody climbs him.
Philly?
I don't know.
That's what they had to do when they were in the superhero.
I wouldn't be the fire department, I don't think.
Well, who thinks in charge of that then, if not them?
The only ones that got the
bird cage you get on the bottom of the city.
I guess
Department of Transportation probably have to handle that, right?
That's their equipment.
Use lard, you think?
I don't think they would do it at all.
It sounds incredibly dangerous.
What do you mean?
And time-consuming.
Yeah, like what happens to all that lard when the next day it just washes off in the rain?
Well, who cares?
If you're not climbing it, it doesn't matter.
Well, it would start to stink and attract animals and bugs and stuff.
Holy shit, you ain't kidding.
Look at this.
Dude, they really did it.
I never heard of this before in my life.
Oh, yeah.
To keep people off the fucking coals.
What did they put on there?
Grease.
So the police do it.
It says they apply hydraulic fluid to the poles.
How is that healthy for the environment at all?
You just give it a thumbs up, it must be.
Wouldn't it be better to just let someone die instead of having all that washed into
the
river?
All the hydraulic fluid going down the drains and shit.
Yeah.
That is funny.
You can't even use soap.
You got to use hydraulic fluid.
Philly really is fucking scrappy.
They are scrappy.
They are.
They are scrappy in a way that you don't want them moving into your neighborhood.
A little too scrappy for this neighborhood.
You don't think they fucking grease the poles of Staten Island?
No, they do not.
They don't.
They've turned some fire hoses on people on Staten Island.
They haven't reached the polls.
Wow.
Yeah, that is scrappy.
I think if you guys had your own professional team that played in Staten Island.
Staten Island Yankees, bro.
Is that minor leagues?
Tay League.
So have they ever won a championship?
They have.
They don't even exist anymore.
There he goes.
There's a kid climbing up the pole.
It's a tragedy in reality, though, that somebody just
hanging on the flag died in their whole life cut short because
how come
he wanted to show off in front of everybody?
Yeah, this to me, like, why isn't this acceptable?
Like, you know,
it's like a protest to me.
Why is it not okay?
That's true.
Why is it not okay?
Because
the stupidity of
losing your life
because
the team that plays in your city won, and now you're dead.
It's
beyond comprehension.
The family and the friends, and all that.
Oh, my God.
But you know what I'm saying?
They won.
That wasn't even the championship, though.
It was the step to get to the Super Bowl.
Wow, that is nuts.
It's like, you know, at least, you know, like the family could be like, well, at least they won the Super Bowl.
They can't even say that yet.
Then they might win.
They might win.
Then they can change history.
It was after the Super Bowl.
It was after the Super Bowl he died.
All right.
It wasn't because of the the NFC championship.
It was the Super Bowl.
I was, how about the other day when I texted you about the Devils game?
I was trying to get a little bonding going on.
Yeah, well, I heard that it was all orchestrated.
It wasn't even a legitimate text.
What are you talking about?
That's not true.
Brian comes in and he goes, Did you get a text from BQ about the Devil's Game?
And I was like, I did.
I go.
He goes, Yeah, he wagered if you would even answer.
That's not true.
What'd you say?
I said you weren't sure if he was going to answer you.
All of a sudden, like, now you know how Chuck feels.
No, I wasn't wagering like he'll never answer.
I was wagering like a bet, but you're like, will he even answer?
Well, no, I was
back.
I said he might be recording the game, which you were.
Which I was.
Yeah.
And he ruined it.
I just said I was,
and I didn't say anything.
All I said sarcastically was, wow, sounds like a good game.
Can't wait to watch it later.
And that was it.
You know, I had all the success with my dad with trains.
I was like, Walt's next, man.
We're going to do some bonding over the devils.
It was so weird when I got it.
All I got was I'm watching TV with my wife in the bedroom, and text comes in and it's like, how about this game?
John's a fucking piece of shit, is it?
I was like,
I go, wow.
I go, Q just texted me about a game.
I go, what game could he be watching?
Joe, I wonder what game he's watching.
And I go, and I go, I just wrote back with a question mark, what game?
He goes, the devils.
This is fucking out of sight or something outrageous.
And I was like, oh, I'm recording it.
I wrote, yeah, it sounds like a good one.
I'll watch it later.
I never heard back, though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I didn't want to say anything because you made it clear that you had to go to the middle of the video.
Well, I knew that
the whole time, like, what?
He watches the devils?
How come he hasn't mentioned this before that he's following them on such a close basis that he's excited enough, prompted enough by what's going on
by what's going on that to text me?
But yeah,
they won, I guess, 5-0.
Yeah, it was awesome.
It was a rat.
It was awesome.
Yeah.
Good game.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I thought it was a legitimate reaching out for, you know, I didn't realize it was a fucking petri dish
experiment to see if I would answer.
It was.
It was a legitimate, like,
you just wrote back, okay.
I was looking at what gave you in it.
I was looking at it.
Why did you ask Brian to do it, though?
That's even weirder, though.
I didn't ask him to do it.
I don't know.
But you're like, hey, I'm going to text Walt to see about the Devil's game.
How does Brian know that he's gone?
I might have done it afterwards.
I might have told him afterwards.
I don't remember that I just texted Walt about the Devil's game.
Yeah, he didn't answer me.
That's not true that you said I didn't.
I answered him immediately.
Yeah, but maybe by that point, you had an answer.
Were you blotted?
No, I wasn't blotted.
I was watching the game.
Him and his dad.
Just get you a text next.
Prize picks.
Prize picks, baby.
All right.
All right.
Prize picks is the best place to get real money sports action.
With over 10 million members and billions of dollars in awarded winnings, Prize Picks has made daily fantasy sports.
And then I'm the one with bizarre relationships.
You guys are going like, I'm going to text Walt, see if he texts me back.
I'm the one that's the weirdo.
I was watching the game.
It was an awesome game.
I was like, I know a guy that's probably watching that I could pal around with right now.
You connect with.
Yeah.
Grow out, I think.
I was trying to grow down with him.
Right?
Yeah.
I was going to text you at 1 o'clock in the morning when I had finished watching.
I was up.
But I didn't know if you were up.
I was up.
Like, that was a good game I was gonna write yeah
I was gonna write
oh boy uh prize picks has made daily fantasy sports accessible to all you just pick more or less on at least two players for a shot up to win a thousand times your cash run your game all season long on prize picks
uh the big game is almost here and it's now or never don't miss out on the last football game of the season with prize picks the best place to win cash while watching the big game.
Where will you be watching?
Walt at home, I guess.
Rub has invited me to his house for the...
Rub.
Rubb?
Sorry, Rub.
Rubb is throwing a big Super Bowl bash.
Yeah, he texted me, asked me if I wanted to get away.
He didn't invite me?
No, I got to fucking invite this guy to fucking Florida.
I watched it last year at his place.
Did you?
Yeah.
You don't seem like a going to somebody's house kind of guy to me.
You want to really watch the game.
Yeah.
Not be distracting people around.
I do agree with that as
a assessment, though, that I do find I enjoy watching a game with not the
pressure to have small talk.
It's not my strongest attribute is small talk.
So then when I'm trying to watch something, then I have to also be like, oh, I have to be cognizant of like, oh, yes, I haven't spoken in the last hour.
Right.
And get him up and down.
Maybe I should say something.
Sorry.
Don't tear mind everybody.
Yay!
Good game.
Okay.
Hey.
Rub's wife is like, he keeps waking up the baby.
Can you ask him to calm down?
Oh, is that little Rub?
Oh, look at how cute little Rub is.
Hey, she can walk.
Well, she's three years old, so yeah.
Little Rub's adorable.
Rub did not invite me to this game.
No.
Chuck watched the Royal Rumble.
Did he watch it here?
They were having a Royal Rumble viewing party, and I got the invite to that from Chuck.
So it's like, you know.
Well, Chuck was organizing it.
Yeah, well, Rub, I'm assuming, is organizing the party at his house.
Yeah, I mean, do you really think that he
left you off the list because for any real reason other than you probably wouldn't be interested in going?
Like he wrote nice to his name, no fucking way
on the guest list.
He wrote my name just across the route.
Just across it.
He assumes you're going to some fucking famous person's Super Bowl party like you did when you went to
all your
celeb friends.
Yeah.
You know,
didn't you go to Terry Branchaw's fucking Super Bowl party with you?
No, no, I went to Duncan Stanhope's Super Bowl.
A little different.
Decidedly different.
But I'm supposed to invite this guy to fucking Key West with me, and the guy can't even invite me to his home to watch the Super Bowl.
That's saying something.
It's not saying nothing.
Saying something indeed.
Yeah.
So, are you going to his party?
I don't know.
Maybe I will.
Why are you going to go for sure?
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
Let me know if you go.
Okay.
I'll text you.
Because I'll be back by Sunday.
I'm going to AC this weekend.
Yeah.
Just on Friday and Saturday.
He would be fucking tickled pink if he flew home from the middle of the day.
He's barking.
He's waiting at Ke West.
I'm going to go.
Yeah.
Somebody invited me to a party as a second thought.
I'll rush.
What's in AC?
There's going to be some guys down there that do podcasts that I like, so it's just like sort of a hang.
Oh, you did this last year?
Yeah, last year we went to Lang City, too, over a Super Bowl.
So it's just hanging out.
How much are they paying you to come hang out?
Zero.
Yeah, I got zero for it.
Oh, crazy how that works.
So you just invite friends to things?
Try to get 500.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah, see what you can get.
Yeah, but it's also a two-hour drive from his house, though.
You're right.
No hotel.
You're not wrong.
Yeah, they're not paying for my hotel or my gas.
Are you staying over?
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, we're going to stay over.

Did you guys see this fat news?
Boom, ba-ba-boom-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-ba-boom.
Fat news.
Ooh, chicken.
This giant rapper lady.
Yeah, I did see this.
No, what's going on?
With
what's that service, that picture of the Lyft?
Yeah, Lyft.
okay so here's here's a picture or lift can you pull up a picture dank demos dank demos is her name and uh she's a plus size rapper which recently shared a discriminatory experience that she had with a lift driver oh she is big big yeah she's like 500 pounds yeah
uh
this lift driver denied me service because of my size quickly went viral and has racked up 240 000 views the driver can be heard stating i got no space my car is small she tells him several times that she can fit in his back seat and he says believe me you can't
Now he's in trouble, and Lyft is getting sued.
Why?
Because I guess in wherever they were, what city or what state?
You're not allowed to just to
you're not allowed to, it's one of those states that, like, if you're, you can't be like, hey, you're too fat, otherwise you're discriminating.
Could you imagine, like, you're fucking, you're like, God, I'm just going to take my personal car and I'm going to drive Uber or Lyft just to make a few bucks, make ends meet a little bit, and like suddenly suddenly you're dragged into a nationwide fucking issue.
Yeah, because you're just like, Look, I don't want this fucking whale in my car, she's not going to fit.
And I saw the car.
Yeah, she wasn't going to fit.
Now, how come she doesn't have somebody in her life to be like, This is not going to be good for you?
Because it probably will be good for her.
Yeah, she'll probably win.
Oh, yeah.
Everybody's, I'm sure she's going to win.
But look at all the things that apologized.
Look at all the
horrible comments online, all the
just the brutality that she is being put through,
the names and everything.
Is it worth it?
Well, I bet you she thinks it is because she's
a rapper, so she wants to increase her
exposure and her brand.
Sure.
Her brand is being fat, obviously.
Can you find the video where she falls over?
Do you think, though, it helps sales, though, of her music?
It'll increase awareness, whether it's talking about it.
It translates to sales I don't know I just like if I had somebody I would want somebody in my life to be like don't do this you may yeah you may win but how much is it worth your dignity
well yeah she weighs 489 pounds
oh she shared a graphic showing that weight
showing the weight that certain smaller automobiles could hold proving that she despite weighing 500 pounds could indeed fit inside the driver's yeah but you can't expect a guy to fucking know that right i'd be be like, you're going to fucking snap.
Get an XUV.
What the fuck are you going to do?
Well, that's what he said.
Get an Uber XL or Lyft XL or whatever.
You know, I always thought I failed, Kevin, when he had that thing on the airplane,
when he had that issue, like he kept talking about too fat to fly.
Right.
And he just would not let it go.
There was a moment where I was going to be like,
you probably should stop saying this, man, because it's just not good.
Like it's not good.
I'm not searching for the word dynamic or it's not helpful.
It's not a good look.
Yeah, it's just like, it's just, but I remember I was going to say something and I could just tell he was so still, so
like on the edge about it that I was like, it's not going to help.
And he probably would not be receptive to me being like, you should probably stop talking about this.
I don't think it's great for you personally to just keep bringing it up.
It's not a bad feeling.
It fuzzium.
Yeah.
Yeah, he brought it up a lot.
I remember we were at the stash and he thought people were going to, we're taking pictures of him through the window.
Yeah, it was like weird.
Oh shit, I remember that.
Yeah,
but yeah, he was so upset.
Granted, I get it.
I mean, it's probably just humility.
Nobody would have known unless you brought it up, though.
That's all made a national thing about it.
Kevin
always had that thing where he's like, he's, as long as I've known him since I was 19, he's like, say it before they do.
Steal their thunder.
Like, that's always been Kevin's kind of philosophy on things.
So, you know, I kind of, that doesn't surprise me.
But I definitely felt like I had, like, you know,
I was
not
brave enough to say it because I felt it would be, he wouldn't be receptive to it.
And I didn't want to upset him.
So I was like, fuck it.
I'm not saying anything.
Yeah.
But I would be, it was like, nobody would have known about it.
Like, nobody would have known about this, too.
But
why didn't he sue?
Why didn't Kev sue, though?
I don't know if you could have at that point, or even Ken anymore.
So how could you?
Especially Southwest.
I mean, you can sue anybody if you want to, but whether she'll win or not, that's the question.
That's what he should have been embarrassed.
If the guy had been like, look, you know what?
I'm lower on gas than I thought.
I got to cancel the ride.
Any other reason other than like, hey, you're too fat, that's where the guy fucked up.
But I guess you have to prove that she physically couldn't fit into the car, right?
I guess so, yeah.
But isn't it just fall back on, like, like the lawyer would be like, he was concerned about his car and putting it that kind of weight into the car you know it would be detrimental to his car right is that not a good enough reason i think it is but now all that's going to happen though is now is that the lift or uber is going to have to change their policy to be like you have to tell you how much you weigh before we pick you up which is so much even more going to be horrifying to some people who are like the like that now have to put their weight in right where a bunch to do that where a bunch of fat people are going to be like let's take a lift they'll tell us no and then we can sue well no that will be in the thing they're not having now they have
You have to take an XL if you're over a certain weight.
Yeah,
you have to have a certain vehicle.
There'll be all sorts of rules so they can cover their asses now.
Yeah, I mean, I think.
And it's just the indignity and the embarrassment of having to put your weight in now if you want an Uber because this woman has done this now.
Right.
And I think you're right when people look at this.
Nobody's like, aside from other behemoths, they're like, oh, poor her.
They should have never treated her like that.
Most people are like, well, what the fuck did you think was going to happen?
You literally weigh 500 pounds, and you're trying to crawl into this little car.
You think it was
orchestrated?
Nah, I don't think so, because they put the guy on blasts and everything.
That poor dude.
Yeah.
What would you,
I just would have been like, yeah, let's try.
Put a fat person in the car.
I've just been like, yeah, let's give it a shot.
I'll try to help.
But
I mean, I probably couldn't be that
cold and inhumane to be like, no, I can't take you.
You're just too big.
I just would, I would give it every, I would feel like I had to give it all my effort to get her in.
Even though she's wrecking your car.
Yeah, I just would, I would feel too horrible to like call out reality.
Right.
Everybody around you can see it.
That's the fucking world we live in, bro.
Don't call out reality.
I would not want to feel so horrible as to say, like, you can't get in my car.
You give her a shot, and if she can't get in, then it's like, hey, he didn't even give her a shot.
No, he he was just like, he was like,
my tires are too tight.
I wonder if he got suspended from whatever service.
Oh, I'll bet you, yeah.
Yeah.
I'll bet you.
If not, just outright fired.
Like
breaking their terms of service, you know, like you can't deny somebody a I just don't know why she just wouldn't get an XL.
She's so big.
Oh, that's an option when you call?
Yeah, you got Uber XL, it's called.
You got like an SUV or something, or a minivan or something.
Yeah, there are cars and vehicles that could accommodate her, but I think it could be orchestrated.
She could have ordered a small car on purpose just
to do this.
It wouldn't be beyond the purpose of the pressure.
But mentally, for her mental health, this is not a good thing, especially if she goes online and sees what everybody's saying.
It's just brutal.
And I guess there's a price tag for that, though.
Like, you're willing to
if you can get some sort of compensation from Uber, it's worth the humiliation and the
ridicule that you're facing now online.
Well, if I was trying to get into a car, me, and they're like, for whatever reason, they're like, you're too ugly, you're too fat, whatever.
And I thought, ugly?
I could, whatever their reasoning was.
Whatever their reasoning was, if I thought I could sue lift for a million bucks or make some money off it,
depending on the amount, I might be like, yeah, they said it was too ugly.
Or they said it was too fat or whatever.
I don't know.
You think you have the
inner intestinal fortitude to stand up to like the.
Let me go check Reddit.
Hold on.
Yeah, it's going to be a a lot more than reddit that small little
this is gonna be now all the internet is gonna be putting your face up and being like i wouldn't pick up that fucking fugly fuck
let him fuck him walk yeah what do you got feet for ugly
she says that um
okay so he said he tells the performer that he has very tired tires and that's why he can't couldn't transport her she says i am a big person fucking advocate i I am a big person, fucking advocate.
And I'm not the only person that they did that shit to.
That shit was humiliating.
It's below zero.
I'm outside and you pulling off on me.
It is humiliating.
Now it's going to be, now it's ratcheted up to insane levels, though, where now people are talking about you for all the wrong reasons.
But nobody was talking about her before this.
So now this is, you know.
Well, she had a pretty decent, like, I think she had 135,000 people on Instagram or something.
I looked her up.
Do you think should I have felt guilt for not saying anything?
Or do you think I
no?
I mean, I don't think Kevin would have been receptive at the time.
I think he just felt bad about himself, and it was just his way of processing it, you know?
Right.
Well, it's also content.
Like, never underestimate Kevin's desire to just constantly create content.
Yeah, he.
And that's a big one.
Yeah.
No pun intended, but that's like, that was a big thing that he could tell in
theaters and stuff, you know, when he does his spoken word shit, you know.
Even though it is humiliating, and I I wouldn't want to be like, yeah, I was too fat to fit into an airplane seat.
I guess he saw it as something else, you know?
Yeah, we forget how big Kevin was.
Yeah, he was huge.
He's a big guy.
He's a thin dude now.
He's a fucking stalk now.
He's a weed.
Yeah, he looks funny.
He looks thin.
What's that number for weed?
420.
420.
Tay me 420 at Key West?
Oh, my God.
He looks like a different person.
We're looking at Too Fat to Fly right now.
He He looks like a totally different guy.
You can bring in the volcano?
Look, it's not legal in the state of the world.
Oh, it's not good.
They do have the Delta 9 down there.
But I think you could do it in like drinks or stuff.
There's some weird rules down there, but you could put weed into drinks?
A THC.
THC in the drinks?
Yeah, there's something like that.
But
Walt, I'll be working.
I don't anticipate that.
Good.
Good to hear.
I'm glad to hear it.
Very professional.
I'm going to be like, what's his name in the love boat?
Not Gopher.
Who was the Julie?
Julie was the Julie McCoy?
Yeah.
Go kid.
Go kid.
But before she left the show,
she was concerned about everybody's.
She was the cruise director.
What was it?
She was the cruise director.
The cruise director.
Activities director.
Yeah, that'll be a good idea.
Either Gopher, though.
Making sure all your talent is
comfortable.
I'm going to be like everybody on the love boat.
And then you've got to be like Isaac when you sit behind the bar.
Yeah.
Okay, then on Sunday, though, you've got to be like the captain.
You got to say something wise as they get off the boat.
Yeah, like something like that, sum up the weekend and like how, you know, something wise and impactful to make a difference in their lives.
Yeah, you're right.
I do.
I have to start thinking about it.
Well, hopefully, people like on an episode of Love Boat will be falling in love within 10 minutes.
You know, and there'll be all sorts of drama and whatnot.
You know, Jimmy the hair guy could have been my gopher.
He could have been my yeoman purser or whatever it was on that show.
He was your ace.
Which one's ace?
Ace was the good-looking guy who was in
happy days.
Ted McGinley.
Oh, he's right.
He was like the photographer, right?
That's Chuck.
That's Chuck.
It chucks my ace.
What's your get him?
Get him?
Get him to my Giddam a few.
That fucking movie
comes out of the bowels of the ship stinking of coal.
He could be a doc.
Doc?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That's ironic.
I know the worst health is the doctor.
I'm going to have to drain that.
Excuse me, who are you?
I got my tools.
Tools.
This needle's not too dirty.
Don't worry.
It's kind of clean.
I spit on it and wiped it off.
You'll feel as good as new as soon as I drain it.
I gotta watch more love vote.
It's the same show every time, right?
Pretty much.
Yeah, the formula is the same.
Same, yeah.
Yeah.
Remember when Tom Hanks was on as like, as like he was like a ladies' man?
Like that, he was on an episode where he was like a fucking ultimate player.
And he was Gopher's, he was Tom Hanks was Gopher's fraternity brother,
and Gopher was a loser in college.
So when Tom Hank comes on the boat and he's like fucking all successful and shit, Gopher and Julie pretend to be in love.
And then Tom Hanks starts feeling Julie's leg under the table and shit like that.
And there's one scene of, as I remember,
Tom Hanks is sitting by the pool with like three women rubbing fucking suntan lotion on.
I mean, they knew how to cast fucking girls back then, man.
There is not a fucking dud in this crowd.
That's going to be me down in Key West.
Yeah.
Probably take more than three girls.
I'm pretty.
So she had a big Coke problem, right?
That's why she lost her.
Yeah, she had a major Coke problem.
It must have been the best fucking set
for Love Clothes.
Walking around, all girls in bikinis.
Oh, yeah.
Julie's got some Coke in her fucking movie.
Here we go.
Let's go do whatever her name is.
I mean, she was hot.
Yeah,
her quote-unquote sister filled the role.
Yeah.
Yeah, her sister took the job.
She was kind of forgettable.
She had the same name, though, like kind of like a J name.
Julian Joni.
It began with Jay.
I don't remember what her name was, though.
It's crazy.
I've watched so many episodes.
I can't remember, though.
But McGinley wasn't on the whole time, right?
No, he was after Happy Days, I believe he got that job.
Oh, yeah.
And
he was the specter of death, though, on all the shows.
That's what they say, but
you watch
Married with Children, and he's awesome.
He's so good in it, yeah.
Well, I'm not saying that it's because of his.
But you're right.
Like a sitcom, it's like a death and L if he joins it.
Yeah, but
a show would be on its last legs and would be canceled if McGinley joined it, though.
Right, yeah.
That was the rumor.
Yeah.
Judy, Judy.
Well, he did fucking 60 episodes.
I mean,
that's not too bad.
Yeah, he was on it for four years.
Look at him go.
The fucking love book.
Wow.
This episode's been everywhere, man.
I like when people's headshots are in black and white.
Like, you know, that's how long they've been acting.
God, look at this crew.
Monty O'Grady.
What year was he born?
Oh, he was in the R Gang stuff.
1960.
Who did he play on the show?
Who's Monty O'Grady?
I don't remember that name.
Waiter.
Waiter in 21 episodes.
Terry Hatcher.
Yeah, she was one of the dancers.
The mermaids.
Did they have any lines?
Do they just came in?
No,
they would do musical numbers in the last couple seasons of the show that look full.
It sounds awful.
Like a musical number in the middle middle of the show.
They would perform a full-on musical number.
Oh, I remember that's the current pop tunes.
I remember that.
There was like the Milton Burrell episode they were on that I saw once.
Like he was on his gopher's boss who came in to bust Gopher's balls, and the mermaids were on his song.
That is weird.
Did you see that Chinese mermaid who got her head bit by that big fish, that sturgeon or whatever?
Yeah.
I read that.
Was she injured?
I don't think so.
I think she was just shaken up a little bit.
But I read that she got, for her troubles, she got $98,
and she's not allowed to talk about the event at all.
Now, is that in America?
That's in China.
Oh, yeah.
That makes more sense.
Man, this is racy, dude.
The mermaids are no joke.
Well, that's what happened.
That's why it was such a popular show.
It was like grandpa and dad were forced to watch this shit, but at least they had like bikini girls walking around and the mermaids dancing.
Fuck you, I'm getting it.
Now, in age before cable, that was as fucking.
Yeah, that's all you had.
You had to fucking wait till a full week before the logo was on again.
Is this funny how, like, I remember girls coming on the boat and over being like, well, well, well, like,
is that, wow, this is some, this is something.
Terry Hatchet looking good, huh?
Yeah, she's the only mermaid that went on to become a big name.
I see.
Otherwise, they're all forgotten to history.
Like J-Lo and the Fly Girls.
She's the only one you know.
I mean, mean, these guys are all horny watching them.
Oh, who wouldn't be, man?
Yeah.
Fuck.
I know where I'm doing next year's cues.
How many
back to doing the cruise?
If the love boat was a real thing and there was that much
shenanigans going on every cruise
in the 80s,
how many cases of
cage boat?
Tell them, Steve Dave.
I was going to say STDs.
You're going full-blown.
Full-blown baby.
