#364: Himamānav

So fuck you.

Shut up, asshole.

And I believe Frank Five

to his credit though, I believe he was too enamored what you guys

I support Mike.

I'm friends with Mike.

I am positive towards Mike.

Tell'em Steve Dave.

Hey, Walt here.

And before we begin the show, just a quick announcement.

On February 5th, the four Cryptozoic Man bonus pods will finally be available on telemstevedave.com now before I start getting hate mail let me explain I made the promise to all the listeners that were kind and supportive enough to purchase the Cryptozoic Man comics that I would never sell those four bonus pods without the book being tied to the purchase And we kept that promise for the last four years by selling the Cryptozoic Man trade paperback along with the bonus pods on merch table.

But TSD has been informed that the Cryptozoic Man trade paperback is officially out of print, and there are no more copies available at any distributors.

I hope there won't be any listeners who feel this is kind of breaking the promise we made to never sell those pods unattached to the book because I never took that promise lightly.

But since it's not possible to sell them together anymore, I felt we kind of kept our promise.

So if you are a new listener or someone who didn't have the bread or you just never got around to picking them up, now you can pick them up at tellmstevedave.com.

You get the Cryptozoic Man pod.

You get the Fiasco pod.

You get Taking Hay, which is unofficially Making Hay 3, in my opinion.

And you get the fourth bonus pod, which was, I think we played

a serial killer board game, if memory

serves me correct there.

But yeah, go pick them up if you haven't ever listened to them.

I think they're good pods.

And thank you for all the listeners who supported it way back when and

made it a success.

Thank you.

All right.

Let's start the show.

Hello, and welcome to Tell Em Steve Dave presents Overkill with Q.

Oh, this is an Overkill.

Next week's Overkill.

Oh, we're not doing an Overkill today?

I thought we were doing it today, too.

All right, yeah, just back-to-back overkill, man.

Back-to-back overkills.

Do you have a little few things to talk about, like Walt and his adorable family.

That's an overkill.

That Alec is not.

No, but we're not going to do a solid hour of paranormal.

All right.

Why not?

That's normal.

I want to address Walt and his.

All right.

And what I suspect

he directed his publicist to insert as a puff piece about his wonderful family.

Oh, so this is an overkill.

This is conspiracy stuff.

There's a little conspiracy going on here where I think

in order to curry favor with the family, Walt had this article planted.

It's too positive, this thing.

It didn't say anything that's not true.

It didn't.

That's what I hated about it.

Really?

I'm like, this article could not have been written about me at any point in my life from the moment I was born.

They're quoting George Bernard.

This is live rampup.com.

Well, what is it?

People don't know what you're talking about.

I'm about to tell them.

It is live rampup.com.

And

three weeks ago, we stumbled upon an article

about what it was written three weeks ago.

It only came to my attention like two days ago.

A happy family is but an earlier heaven, George Bernard Shaw said, Q.

I don't even recognize the name.

Because the guy who wrote this article is a better writer than George Bernard Shaw.

Okay.

I don't even care what George Bernard Shaw wrote.

What

has claimed to have written

if we associate it with Walt Flanagan, who is churning every family moments into beautiful memories.

I don't think that George Bernard Shaw would pluralize unnecessarily.

So he's got that on whoever wrote this.

I mean, if we're going to worry about grammar,

then

let's not read any article.

No grammar Nazism here.

Okay.

Walt Flanagan

is indeed a lucky man who has such a beautiful family on his side.

So why not read a beautiful story of

your famous comic book artist down below, blah, blah, blah, blah.

So then it goes on to talk about Walt and everything seems gleaned from

this show

and your wife's Facebook account.

Did she make it private or she didn't care?

We didn't even get into it.

No.

Read, he didn't tell her.

There must be nothing going on in the world.

I mean, I guess Trump

has been quiet for the last week.

Why on earth would anybody write a story about this, though?

I think that since you're so secretive,

you're losing a few layers of your married life, and people like to see that.

People like to see that.

Am I that secretive?

I didn't think so, but

I guess

it's a little bit private being secretive.

I guess so.

Is it?

In this world, yeah, where people like they tweet out every thought.

They Instagram every moment.

Oh, yeah, about co-ops.

Got to put that out, yeah.

About thermal cops.

About thermal cops, which could cause riffs between

co-employees.

I mean, I find that more interesting than

an article that is.

Can we talk about it?

I mean, you call it a puff piece.

I call it

good journalism.

It is pretty rotten.

You know what?

For once, I can look at an article and be like, this is 100% true.

There's no bullshit in here.

So, this is what I would like to read, this kind of stuff.

Right?

It was a very nice article, but I mean, I don't know.

I don't know why anybody would write that.

I don't get it.

I don't know who would be interested in reading it first off.

But

it was, you know, what was nice, though, was that Declan contacted me.

And Declan was still contacting me to this morning about going after the.

I learned some of your secrets.

And I'm like,

for what, though?

He goes, well, people shouldn't be doing that.

They shouldn't try.

And you wanted to keep this side of your life private.

You know, yada, yada, yada.

And I'm like, yeah, but

why would I want like going going after them I think would be far more

I'll talk to my brothers in the IRA who'll take care of this

he contacted a lawyer on my behalf I'm not lying he's like I need the retainer quickly send it to me

he saw he contacted a lawyer who is apparently an aunt and

is it Mary Rachel I don't know who he didn't send the name and he goes you can send a ceaseless assist letter she can draft one for you if you want she said you can deal with the company and She's dealt with this company in the past, are fairly reasonable and might take down the article.

Yada yada, she says, but you can also go after the photos that they used.

She'll take the pictures down.

Credit's dead.

Copyright.

So I told them, I was like, look, man, I mean, it's not like they wrote something that was heinous or anything.

I'm not going to.

I'm not interested, though, in anybody else doing this.

I would really, I mean, if you gleaned that from listening to this and you enjoy listening to this, I I would hope that you wouldn't do that.

Anybody wouldn't do that in the future, though.

I started to write an expose on this whole tilted kilt situation.

Right?

If you enjoy this and you get this for free, at least you could do is at least be like, hey, you know what?

If he doesn't want this done, I won't do it then, you know?

So hopefully in the future, people won't do more of this.

Are your girls aware?

No, no.

No, they would be very excited, I think.

Pictures of them up here.

Pictures on the internet, is that really a big deal?

It is.

It is.

Everybody puts their own pictures on the app, though, right?

Ad nauseum.

You can see yourself on your phone,

right?

Just because now someone else is...

The same pictures you saw somewhere else that you saw

many times when we took our vacation.

It means more if someone else is like, hey, these guys are worth writing about,

then it's not up to you.

We would be the anti-Kardashians, though.

Would you?

Well, not in the way that we don't like them, but

there's no dirt.

See how quickly he recovers?

I don't want anyone writing about me not liking the Kardashians.

But like, if we were doing a show about their drama,

then they'd be like, well, where's the drama?

Where's the, where you got to ramp it up?

Right.

Well, I'll tell you what.

I read the article, and

there was a part of me that was like, it's all true and happy for you.

I'm like, good for Wal.

Yeah, like, he's a happy guy.

He's got a great family and all this other shit.

However,

as a reader and a person in today's world, I I do want to see a little something sketchy or controversial or scandalous, much like the Thermal Cup

situation that's been going on.

Thermal Cup 2018?

Thermal Cup 2018.

Get him.

Come over here, get him.

Wow, I can't believe we're pulling back

the curtain on this one.

To me,

if it's so amusing and so innocent, if you can't laugh at this.

Yeah, but you're exposing a level of insanity going on here that's going to make people like

It has implications, but you're the story you're about to tell.

See, I look at it, I guess everybody sees things differently.

I see this as being so harmless and so

cute almost.

You don't think it's cute?

I think it's awesome, but

are you worried about talking about this?

I think it's next-level paranoia.

Yes, possibly I'm not.

All right, well,

let's walk like we're on rice paper.

Okay.

Get off my paper.

have you ever walked on rice paper i uh no it was one of the that was one of the challenges kane would have in kung fu if he could walk from one end of the rice paper to the other without ripping it he was a master at kung fu

okay have you ever taken any uh martial arts no i took gymnastics as a challenge oh yeah you're a tumbler yes

i can't even see you doing a gymnastics you've got the body of a of a

of tank.

He's 30 years ago.

Or the barrel the clown hides in.

30 years ago, you were nimble enough to be

on a mat.

Could you still do a somersault right now for us?

No, I couldn't.

Or a cartwheel?

They grab you and flip you over.

What made you want to be like,

I want to become a gymnast?

I did.

I'm not a normal child.

Is that normal?

My parents enrolled me in the program.

There was a gymnastics place over by where the Toy Story used to be in Freeholds.

Okay.

The boy is clunky.

Get him into gymnastics.

But isn't it like Little League more?

Your average, like you forgot your son, you put him in a little league, pop warner.

Not like a onesie.

I'm not remembering wearing the onesie or the units are or anything like that.

How long did you last?

I don't remember.

Multiple seasons?

Competitions?

No, no, never competition.

I think it was a lot of fun.

Were you like the Carrie Struggle of your school?

It was like the Nadia Comeni?

No, it wasn't school-sponsored.

It was like a private

place, a private gym.

And it was like, I would say maybe like remedial gymnastics, like, you know, just get you active.

He took a short bus to gymnastics.

All right, so,

okay, so that was as close as you ever came to being in the martial arts with your gym.

Getting into the Olympics.

Yes.

So

what was your story?

Get this heat off you.

So I came into work on, what was it, Friday.

This Friday.

What's the matter?

I know.

There's some sort of buzzing going on.

Oh, my buzzing?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm on Airplanes.

Okay.

Buzz gone?

So I came in to work on Friday because

I switched days with Mike because he was in a drill.

Was it yesterday?

Today's Saturday.

Yeah, yeah, it was yesterday then.

Okay.

And I walk in, and he's like, he goes, he's like, you know, you're pretty passive-aggressive with your tweets there, get him.

And I'm like, what are you talking about?

And I made a tweet.

I was watching an innovation later night for one of those insulated cups, and I just tweeted about it.

What was the tweet that was in question here?

The tweet was, I never, I've never under.

Yeah, here we go.

This is how bad I wrote it.

He's so worried.

He's walking on rice.

No, no,

I'm making sure I'm reading it correctly because it's written wrong.

I've never understand why you're proud your coffee is warm 24 hours later.

Why didn't you drink it by then?

Okay, so obviously natty influence just definitely, yeah.

You're no Bernard Shaw.

No, obviously.

This is set that just.

He's got the grammar of a live ramp.com right there.

This is set at 12:30 in the morning.

So, yeah, it was definitely in natty mode.

About how long until you passed out, and you weren't able to tweet anymore after this?

I'd probably say it was about a half hour.

Are you a happy drunk, or are you like, who the fuck's so fucking proud of the fucking hot coffee asshole?

No, I'm a happy drunk, but I just like to talk when I drink, so more so than when I'm sober.

Who are you talking to, though?

Well, that's what I'm tweeting.

Anyone who will listen.

I tried talking to the cats, they could care less and walked out of the room.

So, let me go get on Twitter.

They'll listen to me.

About

your jab at the thermal cup industry.

Yes.

Yeah, and the people who are dumb enough to buy these cups to keep their shit hot.

No, I don't.

No, like I said, it was just, it just happened to be on TV, and then I was like,

why the heck would you want that?

Okay, so I love that drunk.

He's annoyed.

We'll just see about this.

I'm going to take down the whole industry.

But I just informed Giddem that when I was in LA this past week, Mike brought it up.

Well, how could he, though, if you tweeted it Friday, though?

No, no, he I tweeted it on the 20th.

Yeah, it would have been last week.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, it was last Saturday night.

Because Mike definitely, he definitely brought it up when I was in L.A., and he was very defensive about it.

He's like, it's not like I, you know, I, and I assumed at that point it was directed to him or it was just said directly to him.

I didn't even know if it was a tweet at that point.

And he's like, it's not like I said I invented the cup and I don't really know what he's talking about.

He's like, you know,

it's not like I drink it 24 hours later either.

You know, like, it's just, I'm just saying.

And he never really was clear on what he was talking about.

And we were supposed to do a show.

You were stupid.

You were, there's too much going on for you to get to the bottom of his.

Even if nothing was going on, I probably wouldn't have cared.

Had I known it was this, though?

Like, had I known it was a whole thing.

So then you get here, and he's called, and Mike is mad that a week later, pretty much a week later, he's

still stole.

I mean, look, his coffee stays hot for 24 hours.

So his rage stays hot for weeks.

Better than a thermal coffee.

But how are you certain?

He's the yeti of men.

That he said that these passive-aggressive tweets, you certain that the one he was referencing was this one regardless of of the case?

Yes, he specifically brought it up.

He's like, why did you tweet about the coffee cup?

And I'm like, the coffee cup?

No one was supposed to know.

And then I told him, I said, you know, I said,

I saw the ad on TV, and it was just, and I had also seen an ad in my Harbor Freight catalog that I got.

And I'm like,

why do these people want this thing to be...

I'm confused.

Mike has a Yeti Cup?

I don't know.

He's got a lot of money.

He might have a knockoff.

Right.

I think he's got one of those, looks like a little thermos.

He might even have have the Yeti Cup for all we know.

Right.

I would think, but this level of anger, he's got a Yeti cup.

He may have to be a sponsor.

I was going to say, he has to be a majority shareholder if he's this.

They are sponsors of ISO Company.

No, I'm only going on Giddam's.

Because when I saw him on Friday, he certainly was not angry or mentioned any tweets about a cup.

But this was when I walked in the door.

You were talking Friday yesterday.

Yeah.

All right.

So he had had a week to sort of cool off a little bit.

No, no, no.

Yesterday is when

he he confronted me about this.

But I think maybe he understood my explanation, maybe, and that's why he put it up to you.

Okay, so

you diffused the situation by explaining what actually happened.

Did you explain it in a way that was like apologetic and

sort of like a bitch?

No, I didn't.

Like you didn't want to, you want to get him any angry?

No, I kind of laughed and I was like, no, I said, I saw this infomercial, and it was just, I think it was just, it's weird, and that's why I tweeted about it.

And you didn't ask him, like, why would you think I was talking about you?

No, not really.

You don't want to be a little bit more.

Why would he want to put the red wire next to the blue wire again?

I can't tell you a good reason why, because it makes the rest of the day go faster.

It doesn't.

No, it doesn't.

No.

I am here to tell you, and it does not make a day go.

I have been specifically instructed to not put the red wire next to the blue wire.

Boss Swatsman Coleman.

There's a lot of gag orders on Get Him.

Shockingly, none of them have to do with him choking on large pieces of food or anything.

You're not allowed to give your opinion about anything.

You're not allowed to fight with Mike.

You're not allowed to fight with Rob Bruce.

Not allowed to tell people we don't have change.

He has to give change?

Yeah, he has to give change.

Even if we don't have change,

you give change.

And it's our responsibility to fucking scramble and get change on a Sunday.

Not the customer's responsibility.

Oh, not change for the parking meters, change for the store.

No, no, change for parking meters.

Like when people come in, like, oh, can I get like $5?

But they're customers, though.

Oh, okay.

So, not just anybody who walks in off the street.

I am not implementing it to total strangers, but if you don't know, the program may exist.

It's just error on the side of caution.

Yes.

They may be a customer here someday, not just using you for change.

All right.

All right.

That's good managerial thinking.

You would dub this insane.

Insanity.

Well, think about

that first moment where Mike read the tweet.

for him to be that zero to 60 about it.

Like, what was going through his head would be what he was doing.

I think you're being conservative by using 60.

Like, where was he?

You know what I mean?

What was he doing?

Who was he?

Was there anything else on his mind?

Yeah, yeah.

It's.

You guys are not telling, because we just told this whole story off the air.

So you guys at home are getting the condensed version.

It was really cool.

What are we leaving out?

No, it was just, it was more passion behind the story and stuff like that.

Probably the low-level paranoia that exists.

Like, he must think at all times you're plotting something.

Oh, yeah, because

we bring up the

merchandise incident.

Merchandise?

Or merchandise incident?

Sorry, I had a little bit of natty dice earlier.

What would that be?

The podcast merchandise incident.

Oh, and you're.

Now, I think you're

getting

amped up because you're on mic and you're not thinking about the organization.

He didn't break the rice paper, and now he's all excited.

You're about ready to, yeah, to not only, you're about to defecate on the rice paper, let alone rip it if you tell that story.

And then Mike will be defecating on you, I think.

Wow.

And you got to sit there and take it.

Verbally.

You got to let him defecate on you?

Yeah.

Wow.

He's his superior.

That's true.

Yeah.

In intelligence, would you say?

Or just in terms of longevity at the store?

Are you smarter than me?

I got a microphone ringing over there.

You're smarter.

I didn't say that.

Don't put words in my mouth.

You think you're smarter than everybody?

There's a room in that mouth.

I should not take this personally.

You think you're fucking smarter than every fucking person that walks the earth.

I know you do.

That is a fact.

I've been watching

the honeymooners recently, and there was like a small detail in one of the episodes, an episode I just watched, and I could see on his face because he said it was one thing, and I was like, no, no, no, it was this.

And I could see on his face, he's like, I'm not wrong.

You're wrong.

And I'm like, I literally just watched it less than 24 hours ago.

He wasn't having it, though.

Yeah, this is a man that, you know, it's good to be, just, you know, to be

think you're smart, though.

You mean, you have better than you think you're smart.

It takes a real genius to work under Mike Zapzig.

That was not me.

That's like next to like the IQ or the SATs in terms of intelligence.

Oh, Brian, you just.

No, you know, you, yeah, well, seriously, Mike doesn't.

Mike doesn't.

I wouldn't label him like a stupid guy.

Oh, no, I don't don't think he's stupid at all.

I just think it's funny that that's how Gidham is like yeah, that's that's how Gidham has to operate is that he's under Mike

much like Meng

Would you agree with that Giddam?

I mean you must be under his skin huh if he's monitoring your tweets and calling you out on him?

Yeah, he's got his kids and his wife checking all Giddam social media shit on Reddit.

I mean, yeah, he's not blocking me like Rob Bruce.

You know, he's

I think what happened what happened what has happened between Mike and m and Gidem is um Rob Bruce has been invisible for a good uh

month

sixty years

and they are not aren't able to bond in their dislike of Rob Bruce coming in and their and the and their like and their jabs at Rob Bruce are made to each other, like, you know, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, you know, giggling and giggling amongst themselves about it.

So now with this with this

this vacuum.

Yeah, with this Rob Bruce vacuum.

They're like, well, who else don't look like?

Oh, each other.

That's right.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

So they are.

Not that Mike Zapsick is my enemy.

I love him and his family.

They're focusing in.

You really love his wife.

Didn't you make a remark about how hot she was and then he got pissed?

I made a remark.

About how you're like, I'd love to have me a piece of that.

No, no, no.

I said, I wish.

Don't be making this

more difficult for him.

I said, I I wish

his wife had a.

Wait a minute, before I can I say this, though, I thought this was a very nice compliment.

And if you had said it about my wife, I would not have gotten mad.

I would have been like, oh, that was a sweet little thing.

But Mike is a bit

good.

Some guys are.

Some guys don't want anybody making a comment about their womanhood.

Mike's been cucked countless times.

He doesn't need to happen again by Giddam.

But I said, I wish his wife had a younger twin.

Right.

Implying that someone might.

Someone, you know,

we have an age difference, Mike and I.

And, you know, someone more my age appropriate and that looked like his wife because I find her attractive.

And she's a nice

personality as well.

I don't believe the words age and appropriate should ever be put next to each other.

But

you know what?

And now I get it, though.

I'm not that that Mike as well is certainly within his, like, you know what?

Don't ever mention that.

Yada, yada, yada.

Again, though, you broke the rule and mentioned it, but

I don't know.

Why?

I don't know.

You're a rebel.

Rebels, you got to sleep.

That's what's out of your mind.

Would you say that you're just not scared of Mike?

You're not intimidating about Mike.

The only reason you're not unleashing is because of Walt.

If he says that, he's lying.

Because I saw Mike go after him one day.

Really?

And

Giddam looked like the puppy who shot him.

That's what I heard.

Oh, don't give me that look, Giddam.

I saw your face.

That's also what I heard.

That Giddam made some mention of tell him Steve Dave versus ISO Comics.

sometimes you got to suck it up, Giddam.

You said not to bring this up, and now it's.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you didn't bring it up.

Mike unleashed on him, and Giddim essentially just like, he needed a wee wee pad.

Like he piddled.

He piddled on the floor.

No.

Oh, yeah.

He showed his belly.

Okay, how did you not?

So you were intimidated by Mike.

But you know what?

You were wrong, though.

You were totally wrong in what you did.

What I said and was even conveyed to Brian, you heard that and you were like, I don't understand why he was so offended.

You convey it to Brian.

But Brian was conveyed the same information from the source.

For context, for the listeners, someone called up and asked if the stash had tell them Steve Dave merchandise.

Gidam says, No, we do not.

And then loudly, I guess, says, We also don't have I Sell Comics merchandise.

No, I said.

The person did not ask for it.

Even though they didn't ask for it.

I said, We don't sell any podcast merchandise.

That includes telling Steve Dave, I sell comics.

Okay.

He's trying to be funny, and he's lying to you.

And the way he tells you the story is definitely biased.

But

there's no need to have that caveat about to bring in what they're doing.

because he didn't say like we don't sell Kevin shit.

Right.

Because they do.

They do sell podcast-related stuff.

He went out of his way to say like ISOL Comics isn't worthy of merchandise, and even if it was, we wouldn't have to be able to do it.

You're giving it way more thought than I was giving it to on this one.

I do want this one because it was on the heels of saying there was no Tell him Steve Dave merchandise.

But the band didn't ask for any other podcast merchandise, only Tell him Steve Dave.

There was no need

for that information

because

it how could you not, though?

But how is it?

I don't know.

I'm legit.

I don't see how it's an insult because he's because by saying that,

he would be insulting us as well.

He's baiting.

Well, there's a very,

there's two separate reasons as to why our stuff isn't sold here and why I sell comic stuff isn't sold here.

Okay.

And you think that's what Giddam was trying to do?

I think that's what Giddam was alluding to.

Oh, so Brian doesn't agree with you.

What's up?

You don't agree that

he's this poor, innocent person.

He absolutely is not.

No, he absolutely is not.

He's definitely like

a shit stirrer in this instance.

Stirs a little bit of shit.

No, because I did not go into reasons why we don't sell the merchandise.

I just said we don't have any podcast merchandise for any of the podcasts that are released.

Not the way I heard the story.

It was more like...

Right?

Yeah, yeah.

It was like, no, we don't sell telemetry merchandise or I sell comics merchandise.

Like, it was very

lethal.

All right.

So you, all right, so Mike goes after you and you, you tuck tail.

Well, I was sitting over my computer and he keeps on coming over and like knocking the

snow miser and heat miser figures that are on the ledge over and yelling at me.

This is my life.

Thank God the guy that wasn't here to write the article that day.

He's like, you know, outside it was family.

Oh, boy, you don't want to know.

Well,

did I just sit there?

Yes, I just sit there, but it's not like I went and like cowered in a corner.

I'm like...

You were frozen.

How could you cowered?

No, it was not like I was frozen either.

It was just like, I'm going to let him blow out.

And it's okay to be intimidated by Mike.

It's not embarrassing.

He's not like a.

He's not small.

He's got a lot of anger to back up.

Is he going to bring it physically?

Oh, yeah.

When he snaps,

it's alright.

It's okay for you to be scared by Mike, is what I'm saying.

I don't think anybody's got to be come down on you for that.

I mean, me, Q, and Waltz aren't, but you should be.

If he was legitimately coming after me, then yes, I would say I would be.

You do a cartwheel and a tumble shot and got away.

I would be.

I believe that he could hurt me.

Okay.

Let's say that.

But in this instance, I did not.

What I wanted him to say.

What's going on right here, in case you don't realize, is they are shit stern.

Obviously, you see this giant ladle in my head?

What do you think the chef's had all about?

In that instance, I did not believe he was going to physically attack me.

So

to say.

Has there ever been an instance where you thought he would?

You thought he might come after you?

Because I know Rob Bruce has nearly come to blows with a couple of people.

I think when.

Embarrassingly with Dante.

What a scene.

There was a time years ago when Rob

years ago when Rob Bruce

no no no it was at a poker game afterwards.

You never saw two guys who really didn't want to get into a fight pretend that they wanted to get into a fight.

Someone break this up.

Someone hold me back.

There was a time years ago when Rob Bruce came in and stirred up some shit with Mike back and Mike was very angry.

No, this was right after we recorded Get Him Rob Bruce.

Okay.

You think you remember the incident?

The fabled podcast that no one's ever heard.

Vaulted.

But it's a song of the South.

It was that

inflammatory.

That incendiary.

It was remastered by Creaky Studios.

Nice and polished.

If anyone wants to.

Is it just too boring to listen to?

Do you want to hear it?

It's vaulted for none of the reasons that it's not for racism or

just anything other than just pure out-and-out.

You don't want to bore people.

Boredom.

You shouldn't sell one copy of it.

Like the Hotang?

$1,000 for the only physical copy of it.

Well, who owns it, though?

That's the thing.

You can't sell something that Robinson.

No, yeah, I'm not going to split money with them.

But let's put this to bed, though, so Mike understands.

I only told the, I thought,

egged John to tell the

tweet about the what was it called?

The Yeti Thermal Cup, yeah.

Because I thought I just find that cute almost.

Like, Mike should not be mad about that.

But

going forward, though, if you consider Mike your friend, yes.

So, why, if you know, Mike is my friend, too, why do you know, do you ever see me take shots at him?

But I wasn't taking a shot at him.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Is it one o'clock in the morning on a Sunday night?

Because then, yes.

When you watch comic book, man.

But have I ever taken, have you seen, while you've been working here, how long you've been working here?

A little over a year.

Do I playfully, like the things I say to Brian or Q or you or to Jeff,

do I interact with Mike the same way I interact with those guys?

Just shorten the list and say any rational human being.

No, I don't.

And I don't, because he doesn't have that kind of personality.

And

as he's my friend, I understand

his comfort zone, and I don't want to make him uncomfortable.

He understands that he's the rice paper of human beings.

So, you know, it's not why would I do that?

If he's my friend, why would I want to make him feel uncomfortable?

I like, I like to himself.

This is your friend.

I'm uncomfortable.

Yeah, that's how you know

your friend.

What the fuck?

Everybody has different personalities, though.

This is what I try to instill in him.

This is what I have been trying to teach him.

It's like, you have to navigate amongst people you think or you are you consider your friends differently, though.

And if you can't, it really shows a level of like

what's it called when you don't have any feelings?

Oh, like sociopathy?

Yeah, I mean, that you're so unwilling to, like, you know, it bothers them, and yet you still will say things or take little jabs of that you know are not working.

So, what you're saying, what kind of person?

So, what you're saying is, before I send, before I send any tweet or say anything, I should think how someone whose mind I'm not in might perceive

it?

Well, that's what I can do.

That's a fence.

Just a little easier.

He's egotistic.

And the definition of that

is a guy who doesn't understand those social cues.

So how could you...

That's like saying...

He isn't that full-blown.

Like a legless man, why doesn't he walk?

Or a blind person, a lip read.

Yeah, but you know, a legally blind man can be a wide receiver in the NFL.

A legally blind man can drive.

For what?

Yeah, but

a blind guy with a wide receiver?

A blind man.

No, a Wesley Walter.

He's legally blind.

What I'm saying is, the guy has a condition that makes him incapable of recognizing.

Incapable is way too strong a word.

Unwilling.

Yeah.

That's you.

He doesn't have full-blown.

No.

And he's.

But how do you know that?

Where are you on the spectrum, get him?

He's not very far on the audio spectrum.

What is

it?

People say the spectrum all the time.

It's from what to what?

Is it like zero to ten?

Is it like a rainbow sort of thing?

I think the spectrum is that it encompasses a lot of different disorders.

I'm about to make shit up right now.

Yeah.

As soon as he's like, I think.

Well, because Asperger's was added to the autism spectrum disorder, which was redefined in the DSM-5, I believe, which just came out.

Like, throw all these things at you.

Was it the DSM-5?

Was it the Diagnostic and Statistic Manual?

Yes, between 4 and 5, because I think they reissue them every 20 years.

They're put out.

And there's lots of debates before

what's going to be included in the next one, what diseases are going to be eliminated or conditions, and which are going to be folded into another.

Like, you know, like Ming is a guy that you can, you can jab and have him jab back at you, but you've got to know

your friends and know that, and is it worth it?

That's always what I is it worth it if he's not, if you make him unhappy, because I don't think it is, but I you make it seem like I'm trying to make him unhappy, and

you're trying to make yourself seem more innocent than you really are.

It's got a disability.

Just own it.

You're trying to escape accountability.

Do not own it.

But if

you have a disability,

the second you own it, you're accountable.

So you're saying that then no matter what he does,

I'm saying it's on Mike to not get upset, not on Get him to not upset.

What can you do?

To hold him accountable, basically, but Mike is bullying him.

Yeah.

I would say through a majority of my actions, Steve.

Could you will you write?

Never.

Thank you.

Sorry.

I would say through a majority of my actions, I have shown that I support Mike.

I'm friends with Mike.

I am positive towards Mike.

To the best of your ability.

And, yeah, it's...

Is it the caveat that you're doing?

Under the circumstances.

To the best of your abilities?

Yeah.

Get him.

You latch onto that.

You hold on to it.

Do you ever think about what anyone does to the best of their abilities?

No, not necessarily.

Some people are.

What I'm saying is that I don't show that for the 5% of things that get on his nerves and make him think that I'm taking a jab at him, and quite possibly I am

in the course of fun, or that he says something.

But he's not having fun.

Regarding the subject of fun.

Or that he says something and I respond back to him.

It's a little, you know, a little tete-a-tete.

For that 5%, I think the 95% of being positive towards him and being supportive of him and everything else like that.

How are you supportive of him?

I retweet things that he tweets.

You had a hot wife.

You retweet things and that's how you show support.

That's part of it.

To the best of your ability.

It's part of it.

You know,

I thank him when he helps me at times, when he gives advice.

So something that you would say to a stranger that's supportive, Mike?

Yeah.

If somebody helps you, like, hold the door open and you say thank you.

No, no, no.

Like, if, you know, if I have a question and, you know, Mike answers it, I, you know, I thank him.

And who else have you shown this support to?

I say thank you to you.

I try to mentally.

Didn't even get a bird out of his fucking fireplace.

That seems pretty thankful.

Well, what did I do when you did that?

You thanked me.

What else did I do?

You brought me for some pizza.

Who paid for that pizza?

You did.

I thought it was being seen in public with the guy.

You were looking for a car.

Who asked Jesse to come out and stay off?

And we drove up there to get a car.

We both did, yes.

Okay.

Yeah.

And I thank you.

And who are supportive?

It's not who's more supportive than what has done the most.

Do you feel you have to weigh a little more heavily by supporting Mike because it's a harder thing to do?

And you just take Walt for granted because it's not.

I don't think I take Walt for granted.

I thank Walt.

I thank Jeff.

I thank Jaltz.

You bought your pizza like a year and a half ago, and you haven't mentioned it in a while.

I'm sure I thanked you for the pizza when we went to go get it.

Did I thank you for getting the bird out?

Yes.

Everybody's so gracious and thankful.

I'm not sure why we're having this conversation.

I'm saying is that I, through a majority of my actions,

I've not made myself out to be Mike's enemy.

So it baffles me as to why he thinks.

I feel you have an American disabilities lawsuit on your hands here.

Gets the sash?

Do you consider yourself disabled?

Sorry, Brian.

Better question.

I'll be in all honesty.

In some sense, do you have any level where you think you might be have.

Oh, yes, because that's how I got out of DroidView the one time.

And I got to get out of DroidView again this time.

I had a doctor's note.

Okay, but for

it.

But it benefits you.

You have a disability.

Get him.

It's It's a secret stash.

You could own this place, buddy.

What do they say when you give him a note?

What did the note say?

I think it said, like, in the interest of justice, he can not,

like, in the matter of law, it's

not.

He got a note from Stampin'

saying that he's so

this genius, this self-proclaimed genius,

is not able to sit on a jury and make a decision.

It should be best interests.

It should be a jury of one if he's so goddamn smart.

Forget the other 11 people.

All right, get him.

Well, I'd get a lawyer if I were you.

For what?

Sue Mike.

Feels like

a force.

You'd have to sue me, too.

Yeah.

The man who's given you a job.

He's given you an artistic outlet.

He's given you...

Did you say autistic outlet?

He allowed you to demonstrate your avian escapist skills.

And my Photoshop skills.

Yeah, I mean, I.

No lawyer skills.

And And you're going to sue Walt over that, huh?

Well, I mean, as a matter of fact, I'm going to have something drawn up this week to

you're going to have to sign to continue working.

NBA.

Arbitration clause.

Johnson's the arbiter.

Actually, I came up with something for Gim.

Can I talk about next week's thing a little bit?

Preview?

I came up with something for Gim that I think is going to propel him to

next level.

Okay.

This is a vehicle for him that I've come up with that I think

if

you have an agent, right?

I have an agent.

If we could pitch this premise based off this podcast next week, I think this could be something for him.

Next week, we're going to play a game.

I don't even know if it's a game, really.

It's sort of like

Impressor.

What's it called?

Professor Impressor.

It's kind of like that, but where Impressor, Professor

was kind of very

too highbrow, in my opinion.

It went over people's heads.

That's why I don't think it connected with people.

It's too much like schoolwork.

Next week, we have one where we're going to bring conspiracy theories, the ones that we're most passionate about,

and present them

to

Giddam, who is,

you've dubbed yourself

a self-proclaimed conspiracy debunker, right?

You have gone online and schooled people.

Yes, I'm actually banned on the conspiracy subreddit.

He has gone on and he has totally schooled and made people look like fools.

So they banned me.

This is coming from you, that you made them look like fools.

Yeah, oh, definitely.

The admin, the moderators couldn't handle the whipping that I gave them.

You whipped even the moderators.

Oh, yeah.

You spanked them, huh?

So

my idea was that we would, me, you, and Bri, would present our most passionate conspiracy theories, ones where we believe in are the most likely to be true.

Giddam, much like, now here's what I'm talking about.

You get your agent, and you get maybe possibly a TV show involved, but get him as the host.

Much like Simon Cowell,

he spanks us, he makes you look like a complete and utter tinfoil hat.

Oh, wow.

Bumbling, like, and that's the name of the, like the working title is the tinfoil foil.

With a Z.

We could go with the Z.

But, like, you get it?

Do you understand what that means?

Yeah, sure.

Tin foil.

Of course, I get it.

You understand that a foil has two different meanings.

Foils, the tinfoil.

I got it.

You thought he meant the foil like that fucking

fencing.

That fencing.

That's what you thought.

I didn't even know what he thought.

I could tell by the look on your face.

I'm saying fencing on the electric.

Please explain.

And so again, Giddam then

scores the theories and to see which one is the most, which theory is the most.

Are you trying to foil our sound by putting your mic by your fucking eyebrow?

So Giddam then judges and scores the theories based upon four categories.

Credibility of theory, passion of the presentation, plausibility index, and the cuckoo curve, which is like he takes into account like if you're...

Please tell me that's spelled with three K's.

Please.

The cuckoo curve means like if your conspiracy is so out there, he gives you extra points because you brought something that's so outlandish that

he will give extra points for that.

It could help you win almost.

And he has certain questions that he will be asking the same questions to all of us that will base a lot of his scoring.

All right.

So that's next time we meet.

Wait, so but what if

do we have to tell him what conspiracy in advance?

So he's on the spot going.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

He should be able to do just as much homework as you guys are.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

All right.

Brian's already given him his, which we could say it now for people who may want, listeners who want to do do some homework, brush up a little bit on it.

That the CIA was complicit in

flooding inner cities with crack in the late 80s to fund

the Iran war.

Okay.

I mean, the Sandinistas and Contras.

Okay, that's a going cue.

You have a couple that you haven't decided yet?

Yeah, I'll text it to you by the end of tomorrow.

Okay.

And I am going to go with a dinosaur conspiracy.

So not the Yeti Cup tweet conspiracy.

But that's on the next episode of Times Teeth, Dave.

And I believe that this, like where Giddam was before, he was

when we played Impressor, Professor, or Professor, Impressor,

he was a participant, which is not his full strength.

He's better at judging everyone.

He's better at coming down and

I believe Frank Five, to his credit, though, I believe he was too enamored with you guys still to be that Simon Cowell that we need to make the episode interesting for a viewer or a listener.

Like he was too much, he was afraid too much to judge you too harshly or to knock you down or critique you too harshly.

Well, also, he was judging facts, whereas Ginem is going to be judging something completely subjective and

not provable.

Yeah, and this is, but like, like I said, I believe, like, this, this is, this is a potential for a real show, I think.

Like, if this is done well.

Yeah.

And he could be, like, he could be the guy that.

Of course.

Why wouldn't they want him as the face of the fucking show?

I'm next, Chris Hardwick.

Right.

Well, does does it all depend on good looks?

I mean,

some of it does, though.

Well,

if he drops that weight, I mean, he's fucking.

If you drop the weight, you get some pearly white, you could be a handsome guy.

Well, you got people like Cedric the Entertainer who are hosting shows I wouldn't consider.

Okay, why shouldn't you put yourself up against fucking Cedric, like the quote-unquote entertainer?

I remember when we first revealed this picture, there were a bunch of 13%

fucking pussies.

Matt Dillon, Matt Dillon.

You?

Yeah.

Well,

you do Melinda Dillon right now.

That's where I'm going.

Segging tits and reins.

So you're weighing in next week, right?

Yes, yes.

And the weigh-in next week.

The weigh-in and the tin foil foil.

Tin foil foil.

We're going to be doing the weigh-in from a truck stop on 13A off the turnpike.

And that's a worth a tile.

And if they're listeners, we can come up with something better between now and then.

Well, you were so proud of it.

You know, I don't know if that's TV worthy, though.

Oh, I see.

Sorry.

Too much explaining of the money.

I was so proud of it until no one reacted to it, though.

It should have got more like a yeah, and nobody said anything.

Well, I didn't understand what you meant.

I'm used to people saying

every time I see it.

I get them like, yeah.

I'm going to go to lunch.

Yeah, boss.

10.4.

Yeah.

There's no line.

We have to explain it.

It's not a good title, then.

I didn't think you had to explain it.

I got it.

I don't know.

I saw the look on your eyes.

Yeah.

So the light.

teller, quickly Google foil

and give me a drink.

I'm thirsty.

Shake, shake.

Now,

I've told Giddam, I've given him

I've taken the dog collar off of him for the next episode.

He is allowed to come at me as if.

With no repercussions.

No repercussions.

He signed the paper.

On the tin foil foil.

I cannot hold it.

Title pending.

Oh, all right.

We already told you right.

I forgot from earlier that you explained it.

I told him that I will not hold any grudges, and that no matter what happens on that episode,

there will be no repercussions.

Because

I want to send this tape to Simmy.

I don't know if the true is the,

they're not really into conspiracy.

You gotta commit to some.

I think this is better facial hair.

That looks like you're a West Virginian child molester.

What, the goatee and mustache?

It looks a little weird, yeah.

I just remember weird.

I remember girls being like, oh, he's gonna be.

Salivate.

Oh, and the winner of the tinfoil foil?

Yeah.

What?

Patella, do you still have Google up?

There will be

a job as my assistant to get me iced tea and to fucking Google reminding me what word word foil means.

Much like in Telmo St.

And get me toilet paper.

I've been hearing good things about Yeti Cups, Patella.

I could keep my coffee hot for 24 hours.

Sounds like something I want to do.

There will be, much like in Tell M Steve, when we played Comment to Winner, and there was a cap.

Remember, the crown?

Yeah.

For the winner, there will be a tinfoil crown for the winner.

Oh, all right.

There's something to buy for.

There's something to play for.

I always feel that when there's something to play for, a little skin in the game.

That people will bring their A-games.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, I'm looking forward to it.

Okay.

Overkill, right?

So one more thing.

I did go to

a premiere, a Hollywood movie premiere.

Oh, yes.

Which...

You didn't fit and fine on that, right?

Did I?

Did I look like I belong?

I saw a picture of me smiling.

I was like, oh, it looks weird.

It looks like when a dog smiles or something.

Like, it's not natural.

Good.

But first, we did a show.

Mike, Ming, and I did a show at the Scum and Villany Katina.

It was as nasty as you want to be, right?

It was as nasty as we want it to be.

What's up?

Did it get nasty?

I don't know.

Well,

I walked in, and Mike and Ming were in the bathroom, and there was an argument going on as to who the straight man was going to be.

And

they would not, neither one of them, so they're like, I don't want to be straight.

So I don't know what that meant.

But then when we finally hit the stage, the way it's set up is kind of weird.

There were like maybe 80, 90 people there, and it's a bar.

So people are sort of sitting around the perimeter, and there's chairs set up, and then you stand behind the bar as if you're a bartender

and talking to the mic.

There's a handheld mic.

And it looks like the cantina?

Kind of.

Yeah, I guess so.

A little bit.

And people, not at all.

People cosplay and shit, I guess.

And I thought this show was pretty decent.

And during the show, I brought, first of all, Nasty As You Wanna Be.

I don't think it should be titled that because I made some jokes that I'm like, seriously?

Like, this is too much.

Yeah, did you know it was too much?

The crowd turned on you?

No, they didn't turn on me, but trying to get one, let alone five child molestation jokes across, people seemed to lose patience.

Is that true?

No, it was, well, I had to address it at one point.

where I, like, the second joke, I was like, is this too much for people?

Like, I thought it was as nasty as we want to be.

Like, is that not nasty?

You're in a Star Wars cantina.

I guess.

Mike and Ming weren't really that nasty.

They didn't say anything.

Well, they were as nasty as they were choking to be, which was very nice.

Right, which was not very nasty.

So I said some nasty stuff, and I did

sort of an extended bit on Sage Gettinger, period.

And

so at the end, and I thought it went over pretty well, to be honest.

bits.

Let's just add a little more to this.

It's not something I was planning on.

It's just like shit that came up because I was supposed to come down on Friday before we left to go over stuff.

Is this show going to be released, nasty as they want to be?

I think so.

Don't spoil that by telling that story here about what

you're not going to recount the story, are you?

What story?

The sage story?

The extended.

No, no, no.

No, no, no.

All right, I was going to say, please don't.

Oh, it couldn't be as brilliant the second time around.

No way.

But

so I didn't plan it.

We didn't really plan anything.

I came down Friday, or I was supposed to come down Friday at 4:30, and then at 4:40, I was like, oh shit, I was supposed to go figure stuff out.

Did you?

Yeah.

I forgot you had to be there.

I forgot I had to be there, so I didn't go.

And I said, I'll see you at the show.

Then we'll just do the show.

Yeah.

Wing it.

Yeah.

Come on.

This far in life.

Now I'm going to start preparing.

So Ming brought some clips, audio clips, that

I listened to and I'm like, how the fuck did we get a TV show?

They were so lame and so bad.

I don't know if you picked out ones that he just wanted to hear, but they were awkward.

Yeah, just audio.

No visual, just audio.

From the CVM show?

I guess they didn't have a video.

Yeah, it was from the sizzle reel of the comic book, man.

So he played them.

It didn't really.

It was tough.

It was a little cringy, to be honest with you.

But anyway, so

the Sage period thing, and

the show ends.

Is that the show closer?

No, the show closer, I can't really say, because I swore everyone to secrecy in that place.

I'll tell you later on.

I said, if I tell you this, I said, nobody here can mention it for a certain amount of time.

For a certain amount of time.

Right.

So.

I was saying hello to people afterwards, and some lady comes up to me, and she's Ming's friend, which I'm sorry, if you introduce yourself as Ming's friend, I do not take you seriously because you're not Ming's friend.

You're someone that Ming met.

You're not his fucking friend.

And she starts taking me to task on the period shit.

And she's like, I don't think it's like, and she's serious.

She's like, I don't think it's right that you would shame her for that.

And I said, what are you talking about?

And she starts blathering on and on like any fucking asshole that you would see on Twitter about this and about like, don't I have any compassion?

And

why don't you put yourself in her shoes?

And I said, so you want me to put myself in the shoes of an 11-year-old girl with special needs?

I said, what the fuck is wrong with you?

I said, I can't do it.

I said, why don't you put yourself in my shoes?

I was like, oh, that's because you can't.

I said, you have no idea.

I said, do you even know who I am?

And she didn't.

Because she's Ming's friend.

I don't believe that.

Who Ming's friend?

She has to know who you are, then.

I don't know.

I mean, I don't think she's listened to this show or watched comic book men.

I think she's probably like, oh, it's these two guys I do a show with or whatever.

Yeah, I'm sure.

I can't imagine anybody would have thought that was going to be the

story.

To your credit, though?

Yeah.

That shit is as nasty as that.

That meets the criteria.

She goes to a show.

You fulfilled it.

She goes to a show called Nasty As You Want to Be.

And who the fuck are you to come up and lecture you?

Get the fuck out of my face.

It's as nasty as I want to be.

I'm as nasty as you want me to be.

Opinion means nothing.

That's exactly what I said to her.

Fucking loudmouth.

Oh, that's so annoying.

Everybody's got something to say.

At a certain point, I hammered her into submission with logic, which is all you really need to do.

And I said these words.

I said, I'm going to give you a chance to bow out gracefully.

Would you like to take it?

And she said, yes.

Good.

You know why?

Because she's not online.

We're fucking, she says it, and a million fucking like-minded sheep back her up.

Yeah, they're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like knowing maybe 5% of the story.

Because it's like, look, bitch, if you had any idea of what I really do with that kid, like.

And I'm allowed.

I'm allowed to be uncomfortable by the prospect of my 11-year-old kid getting a period when I have no fucking experience with it.

And I don't really know what to do or how to handle it or what to say or any of that shit.

And I can't put myself in that girl's shoes or in that position.

So fuck you.

Shut up, asshole.

Yeah.

Like, fuck it up.

Like, what you're saying has no merit to it.

It's not thought out.

It's just fucking blather.

Be quiet.

Nobody cares what you think, especially me, the one person who you hope cares.

You take me to task for being friends with this person?

No, because I know it's not his friend.

It's just some dope that he was like, hey, you should come down and fucking watch the show and fucking hear about periods and fucking Mike's Yeti cups.

I mean, Mike gave Vigs credit, though.

This is why they probably were like, you should come down around 4:30 so we can talk about what you're going to talk about.

But I didn't know until the moment.

Because, by God, can you imagine those guys being on stage and having to, like, you tell the story?

Like, what is their, like, what is their role to play with?

But no, no, no, no, no.

I don't agree with that.

Okay.

They named the show Nasty As You Wanna Be.

They

invited Brian Johnson.

By name-dubbing it, Nasty As They Want to Be, he invited

the very, I mean, he should have known it was going to be about a year.

Absolutely not.

He was at the CubeSat.

It's like a resting willingness for doing a pot time.

That makes no sense.

Nothing.

Like, let these people be themselves.

They should have been prepared beforehand.

Yes.

Yes.

With the nuclear option.

But Mike, though,

he's just a victim, though.

He had no, he didn't name it.

I'm a victim of Mike's.

He didn't bring any material.

I got victimized up there.

At least Ming brought the clips.

Want to draw my lawsuit?

Speaking of.

Time to pay the Piper for you, my friend, is coming.

We've announced

the third Impractical Joker's cruise, and you owe me a half hour, my friend.

I was wondering if I could pay it back a minute at a time over the next 30 cruises.

Fuck that.

Remember, the thing was, people were going to come up with a way.

It was something you had to do on the boat for a half hour.

We were going to run like a fucking, not a contest, but a poll of sorts to see how you're going to pay back that half hour.

So now it's fucking happening.

The only reason I agreed to do the cruise

was because of this fucking moment to get that half hour back.

Yeah, so so everybody start sharpening your knives.

We got a year to come up with something.

You're the ship's anchor for 30 minutes.

I can't wait.

I saw that announcement.

I was like, it was the first thing I thought of.

I was like, oh, shit, I got to do it.

I was like, oh, yes.

When they gave us the offer, I was like, yes, yes, yes.

Yeah, so that's how the show went.

And then we went to the premiere and Ming went in a DeLorean.

And then we went in the Pizza Planet truck.

Ooh.

But there wasn't.

Yeah, but it's just the front of the truck, so there wasn't enough room.

And they were going to come back and get me.

And I was like, I'll just sit in the back.

So I sat in the bed, like in the cabin.

So we got to the red carpet.

I just crawled out.

Wait, Ming pulled up in a DeLorean.

Yeah.

Oh, that's cool.

He's driving.

No, now somebody had to drive him.

Yeah.

He propped up the insurance, and that would be crazy if somebody rented it to him and let him drive it.

Was it Back to the Fugitive DeLorean or DeLorean?

Back to the Fuguer.

Oh, really?

Was there?

And then we saw the movie, but before the movie, Brian,

the CEO of Funco,

he's giving his little speech, you know, the intro.

And he's like, I want to thank some people for coming out.

You know, they came from far away.

And I was like, I really, I did not want to be thanked.

I didn't want any attention on me.

And

so he says,

Elvira, because Elvira was there.

And

Robert, you know, Freddie England was there.

Freddie was there.

Robert England.

And Tony Hawk was there.

Skateboarder.

Skateboarder.

So I'm like.

And clothing line at Colts.

Oh, he has his own clothing line?

Yeah, I'm wearing some Tony Hawk right now.

Are you really?

Underneath.

Oh, the shirt.

I know it's Miyundi.

Oh, fuck.

Yeah.

I thought we weren't doing an ad.

It's not an ad.

That's the great thing.

We're just saying it because we love them.

I got you.

So after he names three titans of their respective industries, surely there's no way he's going to forget the comic book, man.

No.

I'm like, he's not going to mention us.

There's no way because he's talking about these big people.

And then he's like, and the three sexiest guys from the East Coast, and he mentions us.

Wow.

To tepid

applause.

To like,

if you want to, I mean, those, yeah, I mean, essentially, I mean, although these are people who, if you're into fun code, you should probably know.

Not only that, but

the guys obviously mentioning you for a reason, out of pure politeness, you would think that they would.

Right, yeah, they weren't polite.

They didn't care.

It is L.A.

But I couldn't not address it.

Because, my boy,

I literally yelled out to Brian.

I said, Brian, I said, it's supposed to be a continuing escalation,

not a sharp drop-off.

So

that was the douche-chill moment of the night.

Otherwise,

the movie was pretty good.

The documentary is pretty good.

A little long.

They should 100% hundred percent cut us out.

We don't lend anything to it, I don't think.

Like there are people in this documentary, like one lady has eight thousand pops.

Like it's the hoarders of of pop shit.

Yeah.

And super fans like uh this boxing guy and wrestling guy and a couple of other people.

But the the fanatics as they call them, it's like, whoa, this is crazy.

You're going theatrical release or is this going to be uh probably like Netflix.

I I would think.

I don't I don't know for sure, but it was done well.

It's it's a good documentary.

Maybe we could probably get a copy for it in the store.

Hope so.

Will you pay to run it on

the.

Can you buy it and then do it publicly or no?

Oh, no, we wouldn't do it publicly.

No.

So,

some overkill shit.

Want to talk spooky?

How long have we been going?

Oh, I don't know.

Hold on.

I feel like we've.

Oh, yeah, an hour and two minutes.

Shit.

No, I don't want to start the episode now.

All right, fine.

All on a year.

yes.

What, you want to end it right now?

I don't want to end it.

I just don't want to

go into a

start of the episode.

I'm hungry.

Yeah, me too.

Go over.

Should have eaten those chips.

I had some chips.

So what else then?

That's really all I had was.

I went to Rick and Morty Studios.

I'm hearing 2019.

Yeah.

What are they working on there?

Nothing right now.

Still contract shit.

Yeah.

I mean, the only thing they're working on is Bitcoin farming, farming, which I'm not too.

Are they really?

There's a guy there that, like, I guess he's friends with Justin, and he has all these CPUs set up.

And he explained, because I was like, what exactly are you doing?

And he sort of explained it, and I'm like,

it's just a whole bunch of computer power that's taking little

pieces or something, and then you sell it.

I don't know, yeah.

But he's like, I'm planning on making 2 million and getting out within two years.

Oh, boy.

And he put all this shit on his credit card to

buy the CPUs and stuff.

But

he seemed confident.

And he seems like one of those internet or like computer guys that's just crazy enough that you're like, he probably knows what he's doing.

Yeah, I don't know, man.

But from what I've been hearing lately, the return on investment is really getting higher and higher.

I mean,

he's like, one of these things costs $1,500, and it'll make $15 a day doing whatever the fuck it's doing.

It takes you 100, what, 100 days then?

So that'll take 100 days

to break even, really.

They're saying that

that's going to ruin the environment.

Did you hear what that was?

It's all the video cards and taking video.

Yeah, so you got the heat that they're generating, then you have the electrical power that it's generating, plus.

Are you saying ruin the environment?

Like the real environment, not the Bitcoin environment.

Because the amount of energy that is being expended now to mine Bitcoin is like off the charts.

It's fucking crazy that it's all this energy being burned constantly.

They say it's going to, some people are concerned it's going to ruin the PC gaming industry.

It is because it's sucking out all the video cards from the.

Everybody's just buying video cards.

Well, and people can use a high-end, he said people can use a high-end gaming PC to do it.

That's what I have.

Somebody I know is like, well, why don't you use it to mine to make $8 a day?

Oh, my God, man.

Yeah.

You need access to a lot of...

cheap or free electricity because evidently it takes a ton of electricity.

But that's the problem.

All this electricity that more than Sweden uses in a year, is being used in a fucking day to mine all this Bitcoin.

I've heard of colleges shutting people down in their dorm rooms because they can monitor the internet traffic and realize that they're mining and they're like using too much power.

It's not part of the Stewant Agreement or the Dorm Agreement, and they haven't shut it down because it's just so much power and energy wasted.

We're having a good old-fashioned panty raids, man.

Now people are just mining Bitcoins and shit.

Hey, man, I don't know about this Bitcoin.

I don't know.

That's not a real Bitcoin, right?

No, no.

Yeah, Yeah, it doesn't exist, right?

In real life.

With a fucking Krugerand and shit.

Yeah.

Are you familiar with Bitcoin, Walt?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Cryptocurrency, which I didn't know there were so many.

Like, evidently, there's like thousands of

garlicoin,

Dogecoin.

I know that whatever Bitcoin was split.

into two different coins.

Yeah.

Because there was some disagreement.

The only time I ever cared about Bitcoin

was right before I discovered it and then discovered Silk Road, which then immediately closed down.

Because I could have bought all my drugs with Bitcoin over Silk Road for cheaper, and it would have been fucking glorious.

But if you had bought Bitcoin back then,

you would have been a good deal.

No, it wouldn't.

Because I would have spent it all on drugs, and I would be like, oh, my God, I'd be a fucking millionaire if I wasn't a fucking idiot.

Did you hear about 50 Cent?

Yeah, he found like $7 million that he forgot.

I found like a couple Bitcoins or something.

No, they gave him 600 Bitcoins because he signed up to release one of his albums and he could pay with Bitcoins.

And he didn't realize, you know, it's just been sitting there.

And he just forgot he had it.

Well,

I'm sure at the time it was like covering at like $3, so who the heck cared that you got $600 of them?

He's one of the guys on my crew for years has been buying it up like crazy when it was like $30 a coin.

And now it's like,

it hit a high of like $19 or something.

I don't even know why he's still working on my show.

I mean, I know this guy bought hundreds of dollars of it when it was $30 a coin.

Wow, or whatever it was, and you didn't buy any.

I get him, no, dumbass.

You bought those fucking fake coins.

He told me to buy them.

I'm a fucking dumbass.

That guy did?

He was like, Buy it.

He's like, Trust me, buy it.

And I was like, whatever, dude.

There's a reason I'm on the screen and you'll get me my latte, motherfucker.

I just think it's like so weird to think, let's try and imagine the dollar splitting into two different currencies.

Well, it's just some dude made it up.

That's when I'm just like, well, what?

Like, it's literally a dude.

I said, literally.

Some guy was like, this is worth money.

And everyone's like, all right.

Yeah.

And that's all it takes.

And now everybody's going nuts for it.

I don't understand how it fluctuates, though, like a stock.

Because essentially it operates like a stock, right?

What people are willing to pay for.

Supply and demand, yeah.

That's it.

And if they lose faith in it, then they're, you know, they're not going to, you know, they lose faith in the

coin.

Well, that's not what they're saying.

They're saying if China blocks it.

A lot of Chinese people use Bitcoin.

Yeah, like that's where this would get them.

I don't know.

You've seem more aversed in this than me, but in my limited research, they're saying that much of the value comes from China.

Well, yeah, like, you know, they own so much of the American currency in the market.

I would guess that

this much in the market.

Okay, so you don't know more than me.

So now here's what's happening.

So China is, it was so popular in China that all these people who give it value are the Chinese, but if China block it and those people

can't buy it and there's no demand, demand, it'll plummet back down to nothing.

And all these people who are investing time and money in electricity and energy and GPUs are going to kind of be assholes about it.

Look, Warren Buffett came out and said it's a fad, it'll pass.

Right.

I mean, what fucking more than the fucking Oracle of Omaha?

You got to listen to him.

But who knows?

I'm wrong 20 times a day, so maybe I'm wrong.

You know what the fuck FOIL meant.

I know it's not.

I wouldn't listen to you.

You got fucking American money.

You got fucking dollars in your pocket, not bitcoins in the clouds.

It's a fiat currency.

you got to invest in gold that i agree with precious metal yeah that i agree with the gold gold how much is gold worth right now buy a fucking 35 000 bar of gold gold 35 000 gold is great not an ounce not 35 000 an ounce what about you king microphone

per ounce 1360 bucks yeah gold's the way to go

look even gold is funny because even gold is just another thing that they were like no this is valuable right

I think it's steadily, it's more held its value steadily through the.

I can't believe anybody's still listening to this.

I know.

Who gives a fuck about this shit?

All right.

I want to hear more about you fighting with Mike.

Yeah.

Have you invested heavily in Bitcoin, Walt, or you would not touch it?

I wouldn't even go near it.

Being like, what does this mean?

I'm worse.

Wallowing in ignorance.

So nothing else, Walt.

Nothing else.

No,

I wanted to.

Did you hear about this meteor, though?

I think.

A meteor?

No.

I have not been looking on the internet at all lately or addressing my phone or any of that shit.

There was a meteor, and I think it's.

Do you remember Roswell?

Yes.

That's so funny.

I remember Roswell.

What do you think of this man?

You know what Foil meant?

Hugh is one of the most well-read, intelligent guys I know, and every two seconds you're like, here's something elementary.

Are you aware of it?

Well, look what he has to deal with every day.

You know what the sky is, right?

Well, if you look up at the sky, you're going to see shit like stars and clouds.

Oh,

you're like, what?

Okay, yeah, I've heard of it.

I'm always looking at the ground hoping to find bitcoins.

My yard, mining for bitcoins.

So you are you familiar with, with I didn't mean like do you remember are you familiar with

that they

I've been to Roswell

I think we went together oh you were on that trip you thought you forgot didn't you?

Yeah, the Walmart had a big alley on outside.

Yeah, remember yeah it was that hotel with that awesome sign-up

Do you remember though the the whole conspiracy theory around it that it was the weather balloon the pictures that were taken and then

the theory is that it was the cover-up, right?

Yes.

And in Roswell, it's like, I always thought, like, oh, wow, here's the site, and you could just go see it.

But it's like a two-mile hike, and then there's nothing there.

It's literally the same desert you see.

I said, literally, yes, nothing.

It's the same desert you see everywhere.

Somebody could plop you down in Nevada or California or any number of places with a desert, and you'd be like, I guess.

Roswell.

Roswell.

Why not?

Well, I believe that there were, I mean, I know this is going to sound like

my overkill, but it really wasn't my overkill, though.

My overkill was going to be that Ireland is

put on blast the Vatican for not training enough extra.

That's right.

You should have never touched me there.

That was going to be my overkill.

Wait, why did they put him on blast?

Ireland's fathers and priests in not well, fathers who are priests,

put Vatican on blast for not training enough

priests in the art of exorcism.

Or I don't know if that's the art or the skill or the knowledge.

The field of exorcism.

Is Father Lance going to transfer over it?

Because there's such a

vacuum market.

He's not a Catholic priest, though, is he?

Byzantine Catholic?

I don't know.

Does he follow the Pope?

I mean, he's also an annexes.

I don't know.

I don't talk to him as much as you do.

So, no.

That was going to be my overkill, though.

is that like, and

to my thinking, though, I think that shows for a fact, though, that if there are legitimate Catholic priests in Ireland willing to go on record and

publicly call out the Vatican because there's not enough people trained in exorcism, what does that say?

It says that they care more about that than priests fucking diddling kids because they didn't say shit about that.

No, it doesn't say that at all.

No.

It has nothing to do with that.

Nobody was speaking out about that.

Is that still a thing?

I mean, I'm sure it is,

but

it has to be like real hush-hush.

Even more like

you can't let them survive after that.

You got to be real careful if you're going to molest a kid.

These priests murdering and molesting.

I mean, it's the only way to make sure you don't get caught

for that part.

So they're at the same time.

The murder party may still get caught for it.

Off topic, though.

Immediately off topic, though.

No, no, this was not about

Catholic priests in Ireland being like, I mean, come on, they put on blast.

You're right.

What do you mean how?

Do you know what the fuck that means?

Were they like tweeting them?

They were going on and publicly shaming them.

Okay.

Not on tweeting.

Smart ass.

This is the fucking guy you're putting in charge of the conspiracy thing.

Like, Simon Cowell would definitely know what putting somebody on blast meant.

I don't really.

What the fuck?

This guy looks like a rummy taxi driver.

Do you not know?

Have you not heard about this?

What?

About the priest now?

Some fucking self-proclaimed conspiracy bunker.

Wow.

It's a news week.

Yeah.

This is a legitimate.

But they're basing it on what?

That there have been too many demonic possessions that haven't been rectified or haven't been achieved.

They're dealing with so many in Ireland right now, and there's no help on the way from the Vatican.

So

there is a disproportionate number of possessions in Ireland, or there's too few

exorcists.

This is saying

that

the International Association of Exorcists believe that demonic activity has increased substantially in recent years.

What was that?

International what?

International Association of Exorcists.

You should do a book about that.

In unrelated news, there was a fucking toxic chemical spill in Ireland that affect a bunch of fucking priests.

I mean, if you're willing, if Newsweek picks it up, are you trying to say something?

Let me tell you something.

It was one of the reasons I don't read the news anymore, except for articles about you.

Because I don't believe shit.

I don't believe anything these motherfuckers say.

I don't believe CNN.

I don't believe Newsweek.

I don't believe anybody.

Okay.

Because

it always turns out later on that they fucking lied about something or made something up.

Whoa.

Yes.

There's a 2016 documentary called Deliver Us About Modern Day Exorcists.

You want to come over?

It's on Netflix.

Whoa, we got to watch that, bud.

Anyone who doesn't see the need for more exorcists is out of touch with reality.

Right.

I mean, this is a huge story.

Some may argue the people that think demons actually exist are out of touch with reality.

But they wouldn't.

This is what I can't stand, though.

Like, what I can, you want to bring your murdered child to the conspiracy to overkill, but

I tried to shoehorn him in.

But this is like when, but yet, based on

when you see

legitimate priests risking everything

to talk about this.

Right.

And you just discount it

without even reading it.

That's annoying.

That's horrible.

They risk their careers.

It's a good thing that I'm not the tinfoil foil because you're getting worked up.

See,

I'm only reading it's one priest.

It's documentary.

It's an association.

You saw what you didn't hear what you read?

The association of the international association.

Yeah, it says in in 2014, the IA said the levels of demonic activity throughout the world had reached what they considered a pastoral emergency.

So

then it is what you said.

What?

That it's a bunch of guys.

I think it's a lot of people who are dealing.

But

why are all the cases in Ireland?

No.

They're fucking all drunk.

Well, I got the spirits in me.

I think I'm possessed either that or I drank and smoked way too much.

I got a fucking demon inside me.

Fucking demons.

Where's a priest?

Leprechauns are these fucking people.

I don't know into demons.

Like, leprechauns are not sexy.

But to me, though, like, I wanted to.

I didn't get around to doing it because a lot was going on today, but I wanted Declan to

be an on-the-field reporter about this, to do a little research.

Talk to some of the priests.

Find out what's going on.

Oh, he's in England?

Yeah, he lives in England.

He's always going back and forth.

He's always talking about he's in Ireland, though.

I got good internet.

I got shitty internet.

Yeah,

he's talking.

He could go back anyway.

Send him as a correspondent.

Well, anyway, that wasn't what I was about to talk about, anyways.

I was talking about Roswell.

Yeah, oh, that's right.

There was a meteor that fell in India in this little village last year.

Not on the train tracks, I hope.

And it was,

it had a pale yellow-brown color texture with a transparent surface.

Some villagers believed that the mysterious object was a space rock.

We've talked about space rock, remember?

Well, this is what a meteor is.

Spacegrass, I meant to say.

Remember, we talked about spacegrass years ago?

So, which do they think?

It's a space rock or spacegrass?

Because it is a fucking space rock.

Where's that space rock and spacegrass?

It has spacegrass on it anyway.

Okay.

So they saw something brown with grass sticking out of it, and they're like, that must be a meteor.

Something on the the ground with a billion fucking cows in the dress in it.

A billion fucking cows in the country.

And they're like, I don't know, that probably came from space, I guess.

There's meteors everywhere.

But a team of scientists.

This is one of Trump's shitholes

from the India

Meteorological.

Did I say that right?

Yes.

Department reached the spot to collect samples.

They informed the Natural Disaster Management Authority as well.

How fucking big was that?

Now, for 24 hours,

people were claiming

that they felt weird in its presence,

that it was changing color, and that it was.

Are you talking about the space rock or Giddam fucking laughing at his own joke?

You were talking about the space rock.

Was people in its presence were feeling very strange and were having

visions.

Okay, and then

24 hours later, this agency comes out and says it's not a meteor.

And what it is, it was a transparent cube, a ball of ice full of human excrement.

It was crap.

We were right from a plane.

But you're not right.

I am right.

Ends in shit.

Every story.

I maintain that this is just like Roswell.

That this was obedient.

That this was not

this.

This was not blue ice.

This was not.

Because who, if it fell anywhere else on the planet, I could see them mistaking it for not knowing it was shit.

You're right in India these motherfuckers deal with it constantly.

How the fuck they would know immediately that it was just some ice and shit.

Right.

So I believe that this was a wait.

So you're saying that that they freeze their shit and therefore they would know what frozen shit looks like?

If

this meteor, which was basically, they said ice with excrement in it.

Right.

They would know immediately what it was, even if it was covered in ice, guess in India.

Because they know.

But I believe that it was a cover-up and that it really was a meteor.

That was something strange and something very

otherworldly.

And now they're covering up and saying it was.

Let me tell you, sir, if this fell in America, okay, maybe they don't know what it is.

That in India, we know our shit.

Pun fucking intended.

You see a picture of it?

This is what it looks like.

I wouldn't know.

That is not even a...

I believe that's not even a real picture of what it was.

This isn't.

You think it's been doctored?

Yeah, I believe that this whole thing is a lie and that something did fall in India, and

it's being covered up right now.

What makes you believe that?

And what do you think it is, FF?

Because in the world of Twitter, in the world of the Internet, the people 24 hours before the government, even the government of India would get that quote-unquote in my book,

rushed in and put a fake story out there to cover it up.

I believe it was something extraterrestrial.

Well, I guess I'm asking, why do you believe that?

The president's like, just say it's more shit.

Because people, because these, even though that you may think that it's a

fourth world, is it a fourth world?

I don't think fourth world exists, but third is safe to say.

They still get on the internet and they still show pictures and they still talk about stuff that's going on in their world, though.

And everybody thought it was a meteor up until the government came in and be like, no, it's not a meteor and shut it down.

Right, but why.

Right.

Okay.

But why do you...

But why do you.

You just think the way it unfolded is suspicious.

The way it unfolded is super suspicious.

And these people were talking about it having

causing strange visions, causing them to feel weird in its presence, which didn't feel like ice.

So they're tailing it?

Oh, yeah.

There's pictures of people holding it.

So there are pictures of them holding it.

Yes.

Okay.

Before they were taken down and redacted.

Right.

The people probably redacted them because they're like, oh my God, I was holding a giant piece of shit with a smile on my face.

I was fucking Steven fucking hooking.

I looked like a total asshole.

The visions were from the menthane.

Tell them, Steve.

I've got a sick feeling.

This one can't face it.

Set them down and lock him away.

Please move in wash and clean.

Shift stage every steal.

This prison was a mystery.

Are you ready for the new play?

One resist control to discontrove.

We wait for the brave name.

Stand up, Mont,

stand in the way.

Times of ten can count.

Feel his cup before the house.

Free now, I'm on my way.

Broken down, fraud and back.

Open up and don't step too fast.

Clear path, and I'm here to stay.

Oh, yeah.

Are you ready for the new play?

Off resistance, control, tilted fire from me.

Keep we for free,

me

stand up or don't stand in the way

out of the way.

Fuck it out of the way.

Are you ready for the new flee?

Lord with discontrolled

man,

make way for a free

man.

Stand up, button,

stand in the way

out of my way.

Get out of the way.

Get out of my way.

Get out of my way.
