Okay.

I got my notes.

How's my hair?

My hair is pretty tough, too.

No, you're fucking thick, dude.

This curse you had of fucking having gray hair is now turning into a blessing.

It's a total blessing.

At some point, I mean, you're going to have had gray anyway, and it's either gray or bald.

I used to try to do that as a bit where I was like, because Steve Martin looked old, young, but now that he's old, he looks young because he's always looked old.

It's like, oh, he never ages.

Yeah.

Wow, you just won't die.

Yeah.

You've been 85 years old since 1983.

Yeah.

Where you been and where you going?

This is our Rey's Travel Show.

Yeah.

We're going to talk about travel today.

It's you'll be tripping.

Yeah.

Hello, everybody.

Welcome back to UB Trippin', the only podcast that takes you to places that you never ever wanted to go where multiple diarrhea have happened through multiple guests.

My guest today, I'm assuming you might have had diarrhea in this place, is Mike Cannon.

My

hello, everyone.

Welcome to my new podcast.

I've had diarrhea in the place I will discuss as well as earlier today.

Really?

Yeah.

It's tough.

Dude, I got back from Southeast Asia, and Rogan's like, Do you ever get diarrhea?

I'm like, the whole time.

The whole time.

Do you ever?

Mike, where are we going today?

We are going to Bali, which is the furthest place that I've ever traveled.

Really?

Yeah, by far.

I mean, it was 24 hours in the air combined.

What do you mean combined?

Like combined.

So it was

our first flight was New York to Doha in Qatar.

And then we had to stop stop there.

It was like a six-hour layover, maybe even less.

And then we had to fly to Bali, Indonesia from there.

Yes, recording.

Nice.

Dude, I had weed in my bag in Doha.

And

I tell you, well, he was like, I don't want to do that.

But they're like, hey, we're getting off.

I'm like, oh, let me find a place to dump it before I get off.

And then as soon as I get off, like, you're rushed.

We're rushed.

You got to get off.

These three people, let them go first.

And so no time to dump the shit in the

edibles in the

toilet in the back of the plane.

And so then I'm like, and then I'm getting off the middle.

And they go right through security.

And it was just this moment of Zen.

I'm like, it's already happened.

Yep.

I'm either in jail 11 years from now or I'm not.

Yeah, you're either Claire Danes.

Yeah, yeah.

And I'm like, it's not, I'll just look back on this moment.

There was nothing to do.

Yeah,

you just got caught.

That's like Britney Griner.

She had to have felt that in that moment when she was brought into that side room and just been like, I absolutely forgot a a few cartons.

I hope they're lenient considering the money I've brought to this country through basketball.

I guarantee they're not.

As long as the fucking woke public of America doesn't make a big think of it, I'm just a woman's basketball player.

They'll let me out.

As long as they don't make it into a thing where they have to trade the merchant of death for.

Do you think that she shaved her head into more of an Eddie Winslow flat top just to get even more favor with the LGBTQ?

It's possible.

It's possible.

It's possible.

You know, Fitzsimmons' joke about it?

No.

It was, you know, they traded Rudy and Geiner for this guy called The Merchant of Death.

Yeah.

First MWMA trade I've ever heard of.

That's great.

And also extremely accurate.

Yeah.

I did that in Ecuador, too, coming back.

And like, they really like, we could take ourselves up to another room, searching everything.

Oof, and there's also, I mean, that is, that's kind of like a victimless crime, I guess, because if they see a small thing, they'll think you had like a birthday announcement.

But I mean, they were doing

like this, too.

Oh, no kidding.

I was like, like, damn.

Same thing.

I was like, it's done.

Yeah.

It's happening.

Oh, that's different.

Yeah.

I mean, I don't even mess with stuff like that.

The joy I would get from being high, which I'll get to because I mean, it is, it's Middle East.

So it's like, it's, and also in Bali in particular, is like a heavily Muslim country.

Yeah.

So they're very conservative with their drug laws.

And all we heard heading in there was like, you get like Aladdined if you get caught with a joint.

Like your hand will get lopped off at the wrist.

Okay.

Why Bali?

What was the deal?

Why'd you go there?

So, I'm an idiot.

I don't know a ton about other cultures.

I don't know a ton about things even outside of my county.

So, my wife just kind of threw it out there as an idea.

And just by the name, like Bali sounds like kind of Tahiti, tropical, Fiji.

It does sound really cool.

So, I'm just like, Bali?

Hell yeah.

I have no idea what it is.

I don't know how far it is.

That sounds like a good idea.

You're going to where Fiji is?

I'm like, there's a lot of sounds.

It does sound the same.

Yeah, it does sound the same.

That's great.

So, I mean, that's like she,

I had a bit about this, but like, I'm, I'm deathly afraid of sharks in like a weird kind of abnormal type way since we live in New York and it's not a

everyday.

It's abnormal.

Yeah, we get

there's enough to be fearful of within the walls of this city.

You don't need to actually expand that to then sea life.

But my wife sold it to me like, hey, it's going to be great.

Like, the food is unbelievable.

The weather is really beautiful.

She's like, there are, there's like a huge infestation of sharks.

That was the word she chose.

That's huge.

Yeah, she said infestation

off the shores where like the water's warm.

It's similar to Australia.

It's not far away.

It's great white country.

Like, you know, people get, people get just consumed.

I look for a time when this is back to great white country.

Yeah.

That's right.

That's right.

Just a bunch of slow-moving killing machines.

But that's cool.

So, this is your honeymoon.

That's awesome.

How long did you go for it?

We went for two weeks, which

that's the only thing that could make traveling that far worth it.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Yeah.

Plus, as a comic, you don't get this because

you have this amazing brain of compartmentalization where you can just go away for months on end and not even think that your career and everything is leaving you behind.

But like, if I'm gone for 72 hours, I feel like everything that I've ever built is disintegrating in front of me and I get really panicky.

So for me to leave for two weeks, that's like a huge

when I went to Southeast Asia and went to Indonesia.

I won't say my stuff.

I'll just keep it on yours.

But Joe List was like, aren't you afraid of like missing out?

And I was like, well, I just filmed a special.

It's going to come out when I get back.

I have a TV show that I didn't know I was going to be like blackmailed out of at the time.

But I have a TV show.

Like, what do you mean?

Missing out on what?

And he was like, oh, yeah.

And it was like, comics have to rethink what you're missing out on here.

Dude,

you had had COVID brain before

COVID because you had that life is about more than this before we were locked inside.

And that's such a like, do you feel like, is there any part of you that feels kind of like, like, I told you, idiots?

I mean,

maybe.

I mean, when Delta was kicking up, it was like, oh, it might come back.

I was like, fuck, fuck, fuck.

And I was like, oh, Peru.

Great.

Great.

Lock it all down.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, a lot of my friends, you saw a lot of comedians get very successful during COVID.

Yes.

Buckle down, we might be drunk, all these, all these, all these podcasts.

Yeah, we tried.

Yeah, you tried.

What's the scenario?

Here's the, who knows, it's over.

The scenario is it's over.

It's over now?

Yeah.

God damn.

Yeah, Chrissy Chaos out every Monday.

See him on Chrissy Chaos now.

Fuck Saga Lornfini.

Yeah.

You're not even friends with him anymore.

But

what was it?

Oh, but they're like, oh, you could have buckled down.

I'm like, or I could have lived in Ecuador for six months.

I'll never get to do that again.

What's your money going to get you?

Yeah.

I mean, cars.

Well, and then cars, sure.

Homes,

retirement.

Pretty much any of you.

You can meet all of your needs taken care of.

Nice restaurants.

Yeah.

Maybe you went out to eat with Shane now.

We went out to eat, and the check comes, and I just slide it to him.

Obviously.

Obviously.

There's not a question.

There are people like that now where I feel nothing.

Like when I'm out to eat with Rosebud, I literally just throw the check at her and I'm like, hey.

You asked to be a powerful woman.

Yeah.

Yeah.

There you go.

This is what it is.

I'm not even, I'm like, ah, it's like, I'm not even going to say thank you.

Yeah.

Just do it.

You're right there.

It's obligatory.

Yeah.

Okay.

So two weeks is a great amount of time.

Yeah, yeah.

I would say.

Yeah.

To me, it takes 12 days to settle in.

But for two weeks, you can really do stuff.

So why, okay, so you land in Bali.

So, yeah, we land in Bali, which, you know, the way out there,

we had not even business clad, not even like Comfort Plus.

We had just normal.

Because, I mean, it costs a lot to get out there.

And I was sitting, I was in the middle because this hammered Australian was next to us.

Like, we had a row of three, and he was so drunk that actually him and I became friends.

And we just started like slamming.

Like, I was just ignoring my wife for the first leg of our honeymoon.

I was just getting after it with this Australian guy.

He ended up falling asleep on my shoulder at some point.

And then we flew, we flew, let me, we flew into the Ayana Resort.

That's where we stayed for the first three days.

It's in the Jimbaran region.

And we, I mean, dude, this is like, this is one of those things where

if you travel that far,

you almost have to have three days with like your own slaves to get past the, you know, the, the sleep problems.

That's what it was.

It was a five-star bolly.

Dude, five-star, like, people not even giving you eye contact, but also asking

what you need.

Like,

how sick is it to suddenly feel like a king?

Yes.

They will nibble the dead skin off your heel if you ask them.

Like it was that kind of like, but I don't know what it was because we went in September.

So I'm not sure if that was their offseason or what, but it wasn't like overly packed.

There was definitely quite a few like honeymoon couples from America because that's honeymoon time for wedding season for us.

But it was like this place in particular was unreal.

all like total amenities infinity pools all over the place private pools your own spot we we got like couples massage treat you know a treat to everything this was like where we truly balled out in a way that was like we couldn't in any other situation you know this is like a honeymoon like what you do wow yeah that's sick yeah and how much that cost i don't know i so all of this we we we broke 100 even on our wedding which is actually incredible what the fuck does that mean we spent probably i would assume like $50,000, like including parental stuff, what people kicked in, all that stuff.

I would assume we had like a $50,000 wedding, something like that.

Oh, with gifts, which I'm against.

Like, I'm against spending that much money for just a party.

It's stupid.

Yeah, unless you have that kind of fuck you money where you're not expecting any return.

Which is like, put on something.

Yeah, but I was like, why don't we just do like a backyard thing?

We'll put this towards a home or just have money for us to kind of bum around with.

100%.

But the idea of throwing a big wedding is so you then can have a big honeymoon.

And that wedding funded our honeymoon, so it was like completely worth it.

Oh, wow, yeah, this right here, Kuta Lambak, is the worst place on earth.

No kidding, not the worst place on earth, worst place in Bali, for sure.

That's where all the tourists are, it gets so overwhelmed.

Beautiful beaches, yeah.

So, because we went, I mean, so you went right past it instead of going north, you went right past it, went down this way, okay, over to here, yeah.

So, the three the three places we went, we went there, then we went to Abud, yeah, then we went to the Gilly Islands.

Oh, interesting, which i'll tell you all about it

as we get in so i mean this

again like i don't really even remember a lot from the three days at this resort because all it was was like laying down yeah and being fed grapes and almost like you know people would like rub sunblock on your stomach if you asked them really like it was that wait are you exaggerating i saw people i saw people being helped like with sunblock on their back i don't like getting touched so i didn't ask that but i 100 watch people that work there apply sunblock on.

I have this new theory when people are like, come on, I'm a hugger.

Come on.

I'm like, well, I'm completely not.

That's painful to me.

You're asking me to put myself in pain because you're a hugger.

It's social.

It really is.

Yeah.

And I'm like, this is so uncomfortable.

I'm a hugger, therefore you must consent.

Yeah.

How about that?

Hi, guys.

Ari Shafir here, and I got to tell you a little bit about Mike Cannon, the comedian on today's podcast.

He's a great comic.

He's worked with me in multiple places.

Just did lastly, did a show with me and Renazizi raising money for our World Series tickets because we're as successful as we've been.

Renazizi was on a show for 10 years.

I've had a successful, the coolest stand-up comedy show of all time.

This is not happening.

And we couldn't afford even 300s.

Here's my impression of a Yankee second baseman,

a feeling of relay.

We thought.

Man on second base.

Oops.

Fucking get rid of Glaybar.

Anyway, Mike Cannon's Cannon's great.

He's got a new special out right now on YouTube called Traumatized Animal.

We're in a glory, glorious year of stand-up comedy where everyone can release their specials however they want.

It's on Christie's YouTube channel.

That's another thing we're doing in stand-up comedy.

We're supporting each other.

You might have heard of a few knuckleheads going against each other, but for the most part, and I mean high 90%, we're all supporting each other.

We're all saying, you're funny, let me help you.

You're funny.

Let me help you.

Oh, you want to help me out?

Funny?

Oh, thanks.

That's the reality of the world.

Any other report has been misinterpreted.

Here's where Mike Cannon is on the road.

December, Stanford and Point Pleasant and Houston.

January, we got Potsdam PA.

LA at the comedy store, my home.

And then in April, Toronto at the Comedy Bar, Seattle, Chandler, and Boston in June.

For myself, the farewell tour is on sale now.

Some shows are already sold out.

What do you do?

What's it to do?

And that's it.

That's it for me.

If

you're living in any of the cities, I'm off the road until 2027.

I won't be back in any of these cities until, I mean, 2029, except Denver and Austin.

Adriana Belucci, the Dark Queen, her special is out now.

I, I guess, produced it.

I need a better word than produced.

You got any suggestions?

I just helped her make it.

It's deeper than that.

I go over the material.

We talk about directors.

I'm like, Louis C.K.

directed it, and you can tell the guy's a fucking autour.

She'll be opening for me in Pittsburgh, Providence, Nashville,

Schaumburg, Atlanta, and Portland.

And then maybe, I don't know, maybe whatever.

Guys, that's it.

We've got to work on.

Well, let's get back to the episode.

I'll tell you, stay tuned to the end of this.

Because it's coming up at the end of the year, guys, and we need nominations.

We need nominations for guests of the year.

It's going to be hand in hand with best guest, right?

And then places we want to go at this podcast, or you just want to go in general.

Guys, I'm Ari Shafir.

Let's get back to the episode.

Mike Canna, go to Indonesia.

Guys, Guys, Bali was fucking sick when I was there, and it's sick when Mike's talking about it.

It's really just cathartic.

It's amazing.

Ban it!

Banned it!

Oh, come!

I can!

Watch it, run!

Watch it, run!

Oh, I-

Bannett, I'm hurt!

Ben- Really,

bro!

Bannit!

Come!

Damn, bro.

Nothing.

Okay, back to the episode.

What was your jet lag like when you went to Indonesia?

Oh, well,

I came from over there.

Okay.

I came from

Thailand or was it Cambodia?

Oh, okay.

So you were either way.

Yeah,

it wasn't that.

Because I have never.

But in Myanmar, I never had.

That was my first place.

I get it sometimes coming back.

I don't really get it going over.

Dude, I've never experienced anything like this.

When we first got there,

we set up a dinner reservation.

I was like, sitting at this dinner place, which again, on this five-star result, like unbelievable food that I'll never have again in my entire life.

And I'm like falling asleep at the table, trying my best physical effort to stay up.

It's crazy also because it's way earlier.

Yeah, I'm not sure.

I don't think it's a good thing.

I guess it's like 12 hours.

I did like, so our wedding was on the 10th.

We did a wedding in the Catskills, which I would highly recommend if you want to have like a fun, non-traditional, non-religious

60 style comedy dude

you want to hire a bunch of one-liners

I mean it basically was we did kind of get married at the camp that dirty dancing was filmed at no way really it felt like that like we picked it based on like where would we want to do mushrooms yeah if this was that kind of event it's this place called full moon awesome we had a you know party the night before party on the wedding day sunday we all came home watched the giant season opener against the cowboys and then on the 12th year yeah on the 12th, we flew out.

So, like, so we, it was like all this alcohol, all this partying, all this lack of sleep kind of culminating in then 24 hours in the air and us landing in Bali and me feeling like I was being pulled under the earth to try to get it.

You really gotta, like, you really gotta, like, plan it, I guess.

You're like, oh, hey, I'm gonna be real tired.

I'm gonna try to not sleep on the plane or sleep a little on the plane.

But even then, even when you're like, I'm dead tired at 5 p.m., I gotta stay up till 10.

Stay up till 10, that means I'll wake up at 6, 6, 7, ready to go.

And you like fight it.

You stay up till 10.

You're like, okay,

now I'm going to bed.

And then at 2 a.m., you're just like, wide awake.

And you're like, what the fuck?

You're in bed.

No.

No.

I also get this thing where I don't know if you do, where

this might also be like a combination of being a comic and a parent, is that sometimes when I stay awake for too long, that's it.

I'm never going to bed.

Like there's just, it's like impossible for me to settle into a mode where I can then rest my body because I've pushed through all the exhaustion and flags of my body telling me to rest and go down.

And I'm like, whatever, I guess I'm up and this is it.

I want to see the price of this Iana resort.

Yeah.

$2.37 a night.

Oh, imagine it sucks and I just thought it was sick.

No, I mean, that's, but it's just cheap shit there.

Yeah.

It's just cheaper there.

$2.37 a night is unbelievable.

That's unreal.

You couldn't find that.

That's like, that's like a Rode Hilton.

Yeah.

It really is.

It really is.

That's unreal.

And that's like.

This is in 2016, though, also.

So I don't know if that has anything to do with

the pricing or what.

But I mean, even pull up some of the pictures because so when we

oh no, we didn't do any of the thing there.

So we stayed there for three nights.

Yeah.

And that was a pure.

Yeah, look at that, dude.

God damn.

That's it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean,

like, doesn't it look like forgetting Sarah Marshall?

Wow.

Yep.

Yeah.

Wow.

Yeah, dude.

Infinity pool to infinity pool to ocean.

Yeah.

What the fuck?

Yep.

What the, what the who?

The gall to make a double infinity pool.

The fucking gall.

How dare you?

Oh, you got a mirror with a light on it?

Yeah.

I saw every nose hair.

Oh, this looks gorgeous.

Yeah, dude.

It was.

Wow.

And going at, and this is, I'm glad that I didn't quit drinking until like well after my honeymoon because I'm glad that I really like let it rip for this and drank as much as humanly possible.

Yeah.

Because even like see those sun decks over there from the beach where you can walk up those steps and then there's like a little deck area that like just up here?

Yeah, those structure up there.

Like even when you got to like chill out right on the water right there and just look out at that little small landmass and beyond into the water and you could see dolphins jump.

No.

It is like

there were numerous times and I don't know if you feel this way but like when I'm in a place like this, I couldn't feel less.

Oh, all these too.

Yeah.

You can feel less what?

Like, I belong.

Like, I don't feel deserving.

I don't feel like I belong.

I have to make constant jokes about how I don't, like, this isn't right.

I'm not me.

I'm not this guy.

I don't know.

Exactly.

Whenever I get bumped at the first class, it's like, it's like, I'm just faking it.

And my wife, like, made me actually take a code of shut the fuck up after the first day because she's like, you're bumming me out by telling me how much we don't deserve.

She's like, can we just- have honeymoon it's not your normal fucking stock layover i know but even that

even that takes a golf course oh i guess so i don't think we even went on that yeah why would you play golf it might just be grounds but it was dude i mean damn gorgeous yeah this whole place it it is the perfect like

three nights okay and that was like to me the best like transition from dead like exhaustion from travel wedding

fully be pampered do the whole honeymoon thing, no exploring, just rest and relaxation and suck.

And then after that,

we went to Bamboo Inda in a Bud,

which

so we died.

It's probably on the internet again, but my wife sent me all of these, like our shared folder from Bali, and half of the pictures are of a decomposed kitten that we found.

Yeah, but it's alive.

So that's cool.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, Bamboo Inda in a bud.

By far the best food that we've ever had.

Like still to this day.

What food?

What did you get?

So it was all like, it was all, but it was like normal shit, like fish,

vegetables, like nothing actually crazy in terms of cuisine that you like, you know, like roach cock or anything.

Like nothing with

that.

No, I mean to flip those words.

But it's just like the freshest fish, the freshest vegetation.

Like everything just tasted so good.

And you didn't put on any weight.

You could eat like shit.

It was all pretty fucking great.

Yes.

It's all not.

You ever have this?

Beef Rendong?

I had it in Ubud.

Oh, total.

Yeah, yeah.

So I saw a Time magazine for once somewhere.

I saw a Time magazine, best 50 foods.

Pizza was like eight.

You know, pasta, whatever, all these different things.

Not like Thai food, whatever.

Beef rendong was number one.

And I was like, oh, when I got out there, I got to find it.

And I was kind of like, well, I haven't seen it, haven't seen it.

And then in Ubud, I was like, oh, they have that beef rendong.

I'll try it.

It blows you out of the fucking water.

It's so savory.

And it's like, it's so fucking good.

Yeah, I got it.

I'm like, I can kind of taste it a little bit if I put my head there.

It's so fucking good.

And you can get it.

Okay, well, I'll ask more.

Go ahead.

That might have actually been the...

gayest centralized sentence I've ever said in my entire life of I can actually taste it if I put my head there

but yeah that was like so that was unreal the entire place is made out of bamboo that's why it's called bamboo inda.

Do you have pictures of this?

No, this is online.

Sorry.

It's like, I'm looking through all of my stuff.

I have actually, oh, I do have pictures of this.

I have a picture of me in, not this one.

I have it in.

Here's me in the bamboo Inda

thing, and I'm shitting.

Wow.

But that's it from the outside.

Wow.

Wait, is that where you stayed?

That's where we stayed.

Oh, my God.

Yeah.

An open-air shit.

Yeah.

It is the greatest shit.

Oh, you got a little emoji there?

Dude, an open-air shit, there's really not much that

I've never experienced that before.

I don't know if I've done it since, but there is a freedom as well as like solitude in that that you can't like.

You're on your phone there, zoom in there.

Yeah, I am.

I'm sorry for my phone.

You should just be taking it in.

No, you're just missing it all.

You're just missing it all going on by your internet.

Probably checking my likes.

I have a picture you just posted of that.

100%.

Let me see if people are responding.

Oh, and then uh so we're there we do at Bamboo Inda oh what I'm gonna pull up all this stuff so we did our first night there we did this thing called the war of the gods ceremony

which again it's like this this was all set up by the bamboo inda resort so this could very well be like some real white people shit that they just like give to tourists that is a small part of their culture that they don't really care about, but they've just built it up to have something to do.

Let's talk about that for one second.

Yeah.

These tourist experiences.

don't i'm torn a little between back and forth between like it's so lame or it's like i don't care i'll do it a luau in hawaii yeah they've made that they don't do this anymore but it's like i don't know it's just a fun thing to do yeah yeah yeah i think it was it was both so the thing i i'm very emotional and uh and

sensitive to certain things so like whether or not this is a placebo or real i can buy in i can kind of really like this and this was my outfit this was our outfits for it that's why it was like minor league baseball.

Yeah, this is literally how wait, they made you do that?

Yeah, they had to, we had to put the whole thing on.

Let me see.

I love it.

Dive in.

Yeah, my wife and I, this was the whole, this was us at the ceremony.

We had to put rice on our forehead.

What?

This was the entire thing that they laid out to all.

Wow, so you eat on the ground there?

Yeah.

Look at that backdrop.

So you had to.

Look at that scenery.

You don't even understand.

The backdrop of this bamboo thing, of the bamboo resort, it's over these rice patties, right?

And it's elevated.

So all you see is just down this crazy cliff and beautiful, almost like Jurassic Park-looking tropical ravine.

And then in the distance are all these rice patties.

And then you hear these animals that are from a different world.

Like being from New York, we hear pigeons beeping, all this shit, like all the time, but you don't...

You don't hear those screams.

Like it's a diplodocus

in the distance.

Yeah, just like all these birds that kind of didn't really look like birds.

They looked like a bat bird hybrid.

Like they were like these sleek animals that were dive bombing at 390 miles per hour.

It was just like, it was so cool.

And

that experience, like the War of Gods ceremony, was like, again.

Each time served its purpose, right?

Where the first, the first place that we went to was a, was a decompress.

We just got married.

Let's get pampered and enjoy this.

The next one was kind of like, hey, let's get to know Bali a little bit.

Let's check out the culture.

Let's, you know, let's green light literally everything.

because they asked us initially if we wanted to do the war of the gods and like half the couples were like no like i've i'm not upselling this yeah no interest whatever it didn't even cost anything we just we just joined and then and we were like yeah we're here in bali man let's like let's do everything that we can that's so smart to do what you know and so we did that and that was really beautiful we had you know i of course had some sort of spiritual awakening which whether or not it was real is what do you mean again i'm so sensitive and in search of this shit that if I put myself in the position to fully believe in your ceremony, I'll talk to God.

Wait,

what do you do?

You know, deep breaths, putting yourself, like, it was kind of,

yeah, you don't.

Why would I keep saying that?

They're guiding you through this thing.

So each thing is like a, it's like any other religious thing of like, put this here, take in a breath, set your intentions into this.

And it was all very like, not churchy, which I'm used to.

It was all kind of like, feel who you are as a human being you're not paying any penance you're not like nobody's mad at you it's just kind of a religion for you or a ceremony for you to feel good and shake off some of the bad shit that you've been feeling and welcome in this new perspective and experience whoa how long did it last uh probably like an hour and a half two hours and then we did this thing did your chick like it too she loved it yeah and then as part of it and i think it was that exact night it was a continuation of the ceremony we went into the into like the town of Abud, the main place, and we walked around and people, like, this was not a part of the resort.

They just took us into this place where they were also having this ceremony.

And the people another ceremony.

Similar to

War of the Gods, or it was the same like holiday, but they were doing a continuation where it's like, okay, that was part one of the ceremony.

Part two is in the town square where everybody gets together.

Locals.

And the locals, they do this whole thing where they were like, they were fighting a dragon that they were like dressed up as.

There was almost a riot.

Like we got pushed up against concrete walls at one point because people were like acting out this killing of a dragon and of a god and all this stuff.

And it got to the point where I like had to put my wife behind me and like put like have a hard shell basically around her to protect her because people were like running and bumping into each other so much.

It was nuts.

You can't be there, but they want to be part of your life.

Get $20 off your purchase now at skylightframe.com slash trippin' but I'll never forget how genuinely kind and welcoming the people of Bali were because they were like they just saw us walking around no money, no nothing, invited us into their homes, asked us to check out how they lived, offered food, offered like they didn't, we didn't speak the same language.

We had an assigned driver.

I forget his full name, but like all of their names start with Ewayan and then something.

And he was a really good guy.

You just pay him like however much it is for the week, and he's your driver.

He takes you everywhere.

And so he took us to this ceremony.

We go there.

People are inviting us into their homes.

They're like giving us food.

They have nothing.

And they're just giving us food off of like, you know, their small open flavor.

You're eating it.

Eating it, spitting it out, just being like, this is awful.

Do you have any hesitation?

Do you have any like, should I pay you for this?

I did.

Yeah, I offered money and they said, no.

It was like, it's not that.

It's not that at all.

It's like, like, it's like a real,

I don't know.

Again, like, this is stuff that I'm very sensitive to.

And I, like, I, I have a lot of utopic views about how people could possibly get along together.

And those moments are what kind of keep those going because those people were, they didn't know me.

I'm a guy from America.

They technically shouldn't even be my, like, a fan of us.

Abrahamic idea that you're supposed to invite travelers in.

Yeah.

It's like one of the godly things.

Exactly.

Like, they need help.

Yeah.

Wow.

Yeah.

And just like, it just so warm and welcoming and how they guided us and how they spoke to us and like we went through i mean that was a full-day event where we went to the middle of this town and just kind of like

checked out like walked down by a ravine we ate chicken with our hands by like a river what do you mean like you do this thing yeah yeah yeah the little the yeah the t-rex scoop and then you have to eat it scoop it and then shove it out with a thumb yeah it's crazy i know that's their fork yeah they go like this, and then they.

And the first time I saw it, I was like, What the fuck are you doing?

I was with another traveler, and she was like, Oh, that's

what?

You don't have to know the hand fork?

Yeah.

And then I saw everyone do it.

I was like, and that's why they have those little dishes of water.

Yeah, yeah.

Afterwards, you can go like that or before.

And they had like lemon and chicken.

They had lemon.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, I'm so jealous now.

It's reminding me of this place.

It was really, I mean, that was like, that was really cool because the whole ceremony took us down by a thing.

I have this picture with these kids.

This is a part of it too,

where this is, again, us dressed up

with all of these kids in a bud for the God of War ceremony.

And again, these kids.

Look at this.

Wow.

They don't know us.

Is that their suffi?

It looks like a sufi.

They're all kind of doing it.

But isn't that like, so again, to me, somebody who has never traveled this far, right?

You are more versed in terms of other cultures and how they react and how they see Americans.

But it's like, even me as somebody like with a kid now, it's like, kids are kids everywhere.

Like these these just look like kids.

Yeah, they play soccer a lot, right?

Exactly.

Yeah, of course.

So here's a couple of things I'll notice about travel in general.

You picture like Indonesia.

What are they going to be like?

Like t-shirts?

Just t-shirts.

That's a zijon, whatever, like that's a drum, drums, whatever.

Timon right behind.

Yeah.

When I was in Ecuador, it was all TikTok shit.

And you want them to look like you're dressed here.

We're like, that's just not what we do.

The shit was made here.

Yeah.

We're going to siphon off a few from the factory.

It was literally made in Indonesia.

Not even in a similar country.

That is a great point.

But it is funny.

It's like you would see these kids in the Bronx, like literally anywhere.

What do they do with your wife?

I mean, they were nice to her.

They were more making fun of me, actually.

They were saying, I forget what they were saying because this was seven years ago at this point, but they were like saying one particular word and then they'd run away and laugh.

Bulai?

That kind of sounds right.

Yeah, I think I think forong?

No, that's Thai.

I think it means foreigner.

Bulai.

Yeah.

I asked our driver, and he said something about like kind of like white man.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's all they're all pretty much saying white.

And every one of those countries, it's white or foreigner.

Some is actually the term white.

Yeah.

And they're just like, white, why?

And it says sort of okay.

I was on a shuttle once from in Indonesia to East Timor, and everyone, everybody who got on was like, looks back and like, whatever, Bulai, whatever.

And it's fine by the one person was like, I'm like, Bulai, Bulai, Bulai.

I fucking, like, I hear you already.

I know it's derogatory.

I know.

Did they laugh at that or at least appreciate that you picked up?

Yeah.

They stopped saying it after that.

But that's what's crazy.

Is like, so these kids, like, you know, they almost look like they grew up in apartments like anybody else or a house.

Yeah.

But you go to their homes and their houses, like, you ever see those?

I mean, they kind of look like these kids, but those like little Mayan dudes that build like huts out of mud and sticks in the middle of the woods in TikTok.

And it's like this sped up, like, yeah.

Like an ASMR of them building it it's like that's what their homes looked like except worse like they were on they looked like they were hit by like by like shell missiles or something like half of the roof would be gone part of the walls would fall off but they'd still just invite you in and be like hey do you want to like do you want to sleep over it like it was that level of welcoming wow yeah

that's so cool that that was like that was touching like genuinely touching shit when this is oh that was kids are the best in these places Yes.

They really, like a high five to one of those kids, and they fucking mix it.

Do they want to take pictures of you and your wife?

Yeah.

Oh, totally.

There's, I mean, there is three or four huts in Bali that are just littered with pictures of my wife.

A blonde woman, a white woman is like, dude, that's a fucking sick pick.

Yeah.

So you gotta get it.

Absolutely cranking it to that.

So we go and do that.

And that's like, again, a beautiful kind of like, wow, we really made the right decision coming here.

Like, this is, this is something special.

And

the next day, oh, actually, to continue the, um, continue the spiritual shit, we then went to a bunch of like these temples, right?

Where this was a, um, this was, which, by the way, look at that zoom in.

You see that right behind my head?

Oh, you're having a moment.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah.

How about that?

I know.

So it's interesting.

I am having a genuine moment.

My wife caught me in a fucking really embarrassing

just me touching my heart, feeling close to the gods of folly.

But yeah, there's pagan swastikas.

Go in deeper.

I want to show two things.

One, it's a reverse swastika.

It's not the right direction, I think.

Yes.

Is that true, though?

No, you're right.

You are right.

I think they're everywhere.

It's so shocking.

They're on the manhole covers.

It's just like it's a good luck thing, which is crazy.

That

might have been the second worst thing Hitler did was taking away a good luck sign and making it into a horrible sign.

That's what's funny.

It's like, yeah, you want to tell a guy from Texas that the gays didn't ruin the rainbow entirely.

Hitler did worse to the swastika.

And then look at that thing behind you and on the other one.

Mm-hmm.

Do you know what those are?

It's like a gift to the god, right?

Yeah, they put them out at like either daily or weekly or monthly.

I don't know, but then they burn them and then kind of like leave them there.

So this was this was kind of intense this day.

So we went right from, I think this was the next day where we went into this and my wife actually got her period.

And on,

I mean, this is like full Muzzy country.

So they are like,

they're like, if you're a woman with your period, just go to the mountains and don't come back until you're eaten by a wolf.

Lucky, you really are having a fucking moment.

What a

dork.

What a dork.

What a dork.

Oh, my God.

You're really fucking soaking it in.

Dude, nobody makes up their own religions like white people.

You're just like creating all these rules of your new God.

Fianco, soak it in.

Oh, my God.

And they'd be like,

this was the the god of fucking pillaging.

Dude, that is 100% real.

I am creating the god of my father.

I'm picking from the buffet to actually have a dad that loves me.

Wearing a long day shirt.

What is that?

No, it's that like legalized weed, like just a total asshole in the middle of Bali.

Yeah.

But this, again, it's like,

I can convince myself

that this is real, that these waters have some sort of healing thing.

And they may, they may not, but it's one of those things where when I came out of that water and touched my heart, that is as sincere as I've ever been

to your heart.

It really is.

And you're freshly married too

with a swastika behind my head.

It all makes sense now.

Having a real moment with a swastika behind your head is that's peak point.

So, yeah, we definitely, I mean, we had to like, you know, hide the fact that my wife was going through her period at this point.

I mean, not that anyone would know, but you know, she couldn't go in the water.

Like, you know, she had to just kind of like just survey the scene from the outside.

The gods will be angry.

The gods will be livid.

So that whole thing.

Let's see that picture one more time.

Oh, yeah.

It's so great.

You really are standing straight up, too.

Yeah.

I'm like breathing in a little bit of water there.

Oh, my God.

You just think I should have like a fat dude.

I know.

Well, I wasn't in, I was drinking.

So

my shoulders look kind of okay in that picture, which I'm happy about.

But there is a true slop mess in my torso.

So we do that.

Okay.

That's amazing.

After we're done with that, we go get it.

Let me say, caption.

Oh, no.

What's your Instagram?

I didn't even read this.

What's your Instagram?

I am Mike Cannon.

I am Mike Cannon.

Guys, everyone listening.

Obliterate this with fucking.

Obliterate it with comments.

It's back in September of 2016, so you're going to have have to do some scrolling.

But it's the face you make after being blessed at Pura Tirtha and Pool,

the water temple in a Buddh.

Wow.

Yeah.

So

just as embarrassing as it gets, you know, really manufacturing a moment for myself.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

We can move on.

So I think also the driver thought I was lame after this because like after he saw, you know, the impact emotionally and spiritually that this this had on me, he was like, all right.

So, in a way to cleanse both of us from this, he's like, do you guys want to see cock fighting?

And we were like, yeah.

Well, my wife was like, no.

And I said, yes.

And she was like, what do you mean?

You're like, no, yes.

Wait, what?

Exactly.

Well, and I turned to her and I was like,

I was like, we are never, like, this is not a sanctioned United States event.

We're never going to be able to see this in any other capacity.

Again, if we're here to see

all of Bali and what the culture does,

that's part of it.

Yeah, 100%.

I love that.

And the guy said, he was like, this is the culture.

And the fact that it's the War of God ceremony is the reason these cock fights are having because these chickens would be cooked.

The reason these cockfights are happening, because these chickens would be cooked anyway, roosters.

And so they're basically sacrificing themselves.

through entertainment and through the one I went to, they told me that the owner of the winner gets to eat the loser.

Like, you go home with it.

That's sick.

Everyone's gambling on it, but that's the, you know.

I think this was more for the town or their village because it was such a big thing.

No, they wouldn't let us.

So I tried to take out my phone for this, and they were like, they're like, just, nah, like, the driver was like, don't do that.

And I was like, okay, that's fine.

But I hadn't smoked cigarettes in probably like.

five years at this point, but every Balinese man was in full catchers position, ripping butts.

And boy, I joined them.

Wow.

Dude, I like wore out the rest of my MCL MCL just being in position,

just ripping butts.

I was so bad at picking winning cocks that they started waiting for me to place my bet so they could bet against me.

And the thing I didn't know about cock fighting is they tie a blade to their ankle.

And they had a whole binder, like almost a CD binder of blades on velvet.

It was awesome.

Dude, I saw the same thing in these teamwork, which is kind of Indonesia.

Yeah.

Yeah, they go through it with like a CD case and like looking at which blade to get and like making this, everyone's crouched around them.

Will you tell me your experience?

No, that's exactly it, where they were like trying to fit it perfect to the bird and like to the proportion and stuff like that.

So they'd tie it up.

One.

They get one, right?

They get one, yeah.

My wife.

is horrified.

Like, I wish I actually could have had a camera just on her the entire time.

Entire time.

My wife's disgusted by your whole

thing

here.

But then she warmed up and actually started like taking, she started taking our regular camera because they said we couldn't have cell phones, but then we could have our regular camera.

I just remembered that.

So when my wife had our regular camera, which I don't know where those pictures are,

if I find those pictures, I'll get them to you.

But she definitely could take a regular camera, was taking pics and stuff like that, because it started raining and we had to come under the fight canopy.

And it was this whole thing.

But the first.

The first roosters that we saw had their things tied up.

They immediately went,

and they both killed each other.

They went boom, boom, boom.

They both dropped dead instantly.

That was the first fight.

That was the first fight we watched.

And I was like, oh, like, couldn't believe it.

So fired up.

My wife's like half throwing up.

All the Balinese guys are like losing their minds.

I'm taking out 6.5 million rubles or whatever.

That's our currency, you remember?

I think it is rubles.

Rubles?

I think so.

Yeah.

Or rupees or something, something like that.

Yeah.

But it was definitely just, it's way more than what you so it's like you know, you put in a thousand, then you get like eight million or something like that, and you're like, I'm fucking rich.

This is how much was the betting?

Not much, no, it was like you know, I think like a thousand rupees or some rubies each time.

Like, how much American would do it?

I overbed a couple times, and they were like, You know, like,

you don't have to do this, yeah.

Like, what are you doing?

I just didn't know what was going on, so I'm like half throwing money at dumb shit.

Like, it's probably an easy thing.

And what do you do?

You just go, hey, I got, I got two on that one.

I got two Why one, two, a white one?

And someone goes, I'll take that.

Yes.

It was one guy collecting.

So there was no, like, there was no odds or anything like that.

It was just kind of like you'd get paid out.

There has to be, yeah, one-to-one.

So I didn't win a single solitary bet

the entire time.

Like, literally, 0 for, and I think we bet like 20.

Wow.

And I went 0 for 20 on.

It was like 50 bucks.

Yeah, probably.

Something like that.

But it was.

It was like, it was so cool.

You want to put money in the community.

Yeah, exactly.

I did feel charity.

I did feel like I was kind of giving back to them on some

level.

I'm trying to figure out what the next thing is that we did.

Yeah.

So then we

get done with the cock fighting, and this guy, he continues to take us around.

I mean, I don't know if you shopped there.

Did you do any of that?

For like what?

Like, like any of the tourist shit of any kind of souvenir or whatever.

I had just a backpack.

So anything I bought, I'd have to jettison something.

Yeah.

So I was pretty free of the need to do that.

I mean, this

makes like crown heights Jews who are looking to see if you're a Jew seem like the most polite humans on planet Earth.

Why, why?

They are so up in your face, physical with you, pulling you, literally pulling you into a thing where you have to kind of forcefully

create space and be like, absolutely not.

Like, get off of my body, like that type of shit.

And, you know, they get most people because people are just like, honey, this is so exciting.

Like, as they're dragged into a hut hut and then they you know spend god knows however many on on a clay item wow yeah so that was that was like where was that in ubud that was in a bud yeah yeah that was that was high octane just how was your bowels the whole time here when we were at the bamboo place yeah really good so i have a thing where if i fly anywhere over five hours i can't shit for a couple days and it's a it's a problem like served you here huh probably served you well here It's terrible.

Okay.

No, it's a problem.

Dude, if I fly to a couple days, oh, yeah.

If I fly, like, I flew to San Francisco years ago to visit my mother, and I couldn't shift for four days.

What?

And I drank a full bottle of aloe.

Like, that's supposed to be like, like, that's supposed to, like, make you, it's almost like doing a bump of Coke.

It's supposed to actually flush your system.

And I still didn't shit.

It was just a calcified ball blocking my entire asshole.

Damn.

Where did you just go?

I went to see if I ever did some Indonesia here.

I don't think I do.

Well, that's the thing.

I think I bought like a Christmas ornament that broke.

Like I, I, when you said like, bring some souvenirs, I was like, truly nothing has left.

I have cock fights in East Timor.

Oh, that's awesome.

Some guy had that.

And I've been searching for it forever.

A fan sent it to me.

It doesn't fit me, though.

So I could put it up here.

That is very cool.

Anything from there?

Yeah, I'm trying to.

I feel like there was one other thing that I wanted to talk about from

Bucky Forest.

Yes.

Yeah, absolutely.

That is exactly what it is.

Did the War of Gods.

Oh, we did this thing also.

I'll get to the monkey thing.

So we drove, our friend got us a dinner reservation and massage at Pittamaha, which is like this unbelievable resort in Abud that, again, infinity pools, like, you know,

dinosaurs roaming the earth.

We got this crazy massage.

First dude massage of my entire life.

And now I kind of will never go back.

These chicks have no strength.

No.

Their fingers like just just bend too much.

They give.

And this man, this

just dude with his, you know.

Yeah, the girls are here are getting all the best massages.

That's right.

And the guys are getting the worst ones.

Just based on pure homophobia.

The guys are getting the worst massages because they're dumb homophobia.

But yeah, so we did that.

We got that.

We did a hike behind our resort, which again, like because it went down, it was almost like you had to, I'm saying like a lot, but you had to kind of come down an entire mountain by rope and shit.

Oh, wow.

So you had to descend some of it, and then some of it was trailed.

Then we saw these like wild pigs,

all these different animals and stuff like that, that you just don't like, you don't run into in America.

Or at least in the wild, you know?

Or is it Costa Rica?

We had went on like a sloth and monkey tour, you know, and we're like, do you ever get tired of seeing these monkeys?

And the guy was like, yeah, it's whatever.

He goes, but what I really want, I really want to see is a deer.

Yeah.

It would be so cool.

We're like, we have him in our backyard all the time.

He's like, like, no way.

What?

And he's like, yeah, they're annoying, actually.

Yeah.

They eat the plants.

And he's like, wow.

It's wild to consider that exotic is relative.

Exotic is relative.

Yeah.

It's not, they're like, oh, we're, we live in an exotic location.

No, it's exotic is to America and Britain.

If you show, I mean, every, first of all, in Bali, I have never seen, I mean, you see some of those TikToks of like guys in Brooklyn holding their baby while on a Segway, and you're like, you're like, wow, that's unbelievable.

Yeah.

in Bali there's women on a motorized scooter with an infant in one hand a two-year-old sitting on the platform there groceries hanging off their back and they're weaving in and out of traffic with their one arm wow and you're like what dude how were you how is it no nobody's wearing there's not even lanes there's no traffic laws it's all a suggestion nobody's wearing a helmet it's just pure mayhem.

Like they asked us if we wanted to rent scooters and a friend of ours, I think, had gone to Bali and did that and crashed within 30 minutes of getting.

Oh, really?

Like, tore her whole leg up.

Was like, they call it the

Thai tattoo.

Yes.

Yeah, yeah.

All these Chads go out there and just fucking, I can go 90, 90K.

Yes.

Iwayan, our driver.

I've never done it all for you.

He had an open wound on his ankle.

Your driver did?

Our driver.

And I just go, hey, man,

what's that over there?

And he's like, if you look, everybody has this.

He's like, because we ride scooters and you're bound to crash.

Wow.

He's like,

there's no not crashing.

Yeah, every time you see, like, well, they all seem to get people to know how to cross the street and stuff.

Then you start noticing a lot of people with limps.

Just permanent limps.

Oh, and

every dog had like 11-inch nipples and were just like laying on the side of the road.

They'd get up.

They'd be dragging their phalangey nipples down the street.

It was like, it was so

exhausting.

Are a thing.

And then every time you see a puppy, you pick it up.

You're like, oh, it's so cute.

And you're petting it like, there's fleas everywhere.

It's just completely taken over your arm.

But you also realize, you're like, that's why they eat dogs.

They're just everywhere.

They're like fish.

Did you see any waroons?

What's that?

It's kind of the way to eat, which is like, it looks like a pizza window, but with like a curtain behind it, and it's got different meats and stuff in there.

Okay, maybe that's more rural.

No, that's cool, though.

Yeah.

Is that like kind of those conveyor belt sushis?

Like they kind of refill it and you open it.

Yeah, they'll come out with like a new dish, put the thing in and take it out like a whole fish buffet but then just meat out for hours

you know yeah

that's maybe where i had dog had one of those because i couldn't quite understand what they were saying and then and then they they were serving dog and i was like no and then i did have like a mixed

a mixed a mixed meat stew yeah and then it hit me later i'm like well the meat would be if it's mixed it'd be all the meats yeah one of those burgers that's like beef pork angus the whole thing and be like fuck they snuck at the bottom kosher i was like a burger

hot dogs are supposed to be all beef.

Like, no, no, that's a luxury.

Not juice.

It's like made with some beef.

Yeah, the dogs are a real thing, the stray dogs.

Yeah.

It was really.

Are you scared of them at all?

I was scared of getting

of getting bit, but they're so lethargic that they it didn't really look like a threat.

I've heard that any of the aggressive ones just get beaten to death.

So

they're bred out of the, out of the circle, and then they're just known like they're scared of people yeah because they'll just get kicked whatever if they like scrowl it's like no fucking way not allowed like you're not a human know your place yeah and this this play a boot is where we did the bulk of our of our trip so all of this is kind of expanding over like probably a week i guess or so um so yeah we did that see all the dogs all that stuff we did this thing called petiking um or batiking which is like painted fabric with wax and dye over it And we, we just like, it's like something that they do with their clothes and I guess some of their some of their designs, but we went through that entire thing.

You guys really got lost out there, huh?

You really like dove in.

I love it.

I'm

a go-with whatever guy.

Like, I will do whatever anybody wants to do.

I don't say no to anything, especially when I'm in a different place.

And my wife is a planner, so we're perfect together.

She's like, whatever you want.

She's like, I was like, I'll do anything, especially if it's stuff that we can't do here.

I was like, I'll literally do anything.

so and also you had nowhere to be so it's like yeah let's spend two hours on something

class exactly and you put you know it this is kind of before algorithm but even so it's like you're I'm posting at like middle of the night hours so it doesn't matter it's like you know all that kind of stuff it it disconnected me in a good way from everything but had it been now i probably would have ruined the trip with you know scheduling posts and all that bullshit but um so we ended up going to the monkey the monkey forest we have two more, two more stops in Abud.

We did the Monkey Forest where, you know, we went to the less,

they said there's one where they're really aggressive and they steal.

And they're like, they kind of like really get up in your face.

And

it's an immersive monkey experience.

And then there's another one where they're a bit kinder monkeys.

Where is it?

There was also, weirdly, at the Monkey Forest we went to, at the cafe we got a beer from, they had an open mic there like the day after we left.

And if it was there, I would have done it.

Really?

Yeah.

I would have totally done it.

Just to be like, oh, what the fuck?

I saw an open mic in or a show anyway, show or open mic in Myanmar is like my first week going for who knows how long.

And then I was like, I want, I don't, I don't want to bomb here and have that be my last set for months.

No fucking way.

That's a good point, actually.

Last set for months would have been, would have been a tough one to hold on.

I'm not even going back to.

Yeah.

So we're watching the monkeys.

We're taking pictures.

It's really cool.

Like they are more passive, but there's certainly some of them that are, like, grabbing bags, especially if you have food.

Like, uh, one of them was trying to open my wife's bag a lot and was, like, trying to get, you know, trying to get all her stuff.

And I saw

this is the hardest I've laughed, I think, in 10 years.

In in full 10 years, dude.

Is I watched this lady who is, you know, middle America, whatever, and she's, like, t a monkey jumped on her shoulder.

And she's like, Jeff, take a picture.

There's a monkey on my shoulder.

And her husband was like, oh, my God, I can't wait.

And he like starts you'll get his camera ready and another monkey jumps on her shoulder and she's like oh my god there's two of them take a picture quick and as he's taking the picture they start on her head

they start literally banging on her shoulder and head and this guy's taking a picture of these monkeys having full sex greatest picture

I almost asked him to like airdrop it or like, could I please get a copy of that, too?

Unreal.

Hey, remember, we used to do that?

Wow.

Yeah, we used to be exciting.

You used to fuck me on tourists' shoulders.

Wow.

Yeah.

So that was.

Those monkeys are wild.

They tell you you don't have to look them in the eye, right?

Yes.

Yeah.

So then they come close, you got to

look nearby them, but you want to keep dibs tagged on them because I don't want them like coming at you.

But if you look at them like that, they're like, what the fuck?

Well, and then a part of you feels like a bitch.

for like laying down to a monkey, even though strength-wise, obviously, monkeys are the superior species, but you still, as a human, as somebody you know who is a part of society that has built buildings and created this infrastructure, you want to look a monkey in the eye and be like, you're nothing.

Yeah.

But you can't.

It's like your strength is nothing here.

All you can do is build fences around this.

Did you bring any of your guns or anything?

You didn't, right?

Maybe you guys are not that smart.

Wow, that's fun.

Yeah, I saw people taking people's milkshakes or their like lattes.

Yeah, yeah.

They know, not here, but I've heard in other countries.

I'm going to tie that thing in again.

They'll know how to trade them.

I think in India, they'll like grab your glasses off and it's

food.

No kidding.

Yeah.

And they know glasses bring you food.

They know anything in a wrapper, like not a wrapper, like a plastic bag.

Yeah.

They're like, that's probably food in there.

So when I was in Hong Kong, they were like, hey, don't bring any plastic bags here, even if it's just your shoes.

They'll think it might be food.

It's wild.

It's wild.

They, I mean, they, you know, that again, that's another one of those experiences.

Cultural shit that you're like, okay, yeah.

That's not something I have to deal with.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It just kind of opens you up a little.

Well, and then also, like, just kind of wow, from an animal perspective, where you're just like, this is like monkeys.

The only thing that does separate us is these societies that we've built.

And if we were on kind of just an open field versus, it would be a huge problem.

Yeah.

It'd be a real problem.

It would be a real issue.

I mean, it made me like, it made me really appreciate, or at least be be in awe of, you know, in awe as well as bummed out by all the things that we've built over here.

Where it's like, oh, there's other ways to live, and it doesn't seem that invasive, and it seems like you can kind of coexist with a lot more if you actually try and put in the effort.

But also, it's pretty crazy that we bulldozed an entire natural land and just built these, you know, hundreds of story fucking buildings and shit.

So Ubud was great.

Yeah, oh, then we went to the zoo.

We're big zoo people.

We went to the Bali Zoo, and that was cool.

I mean, you know, you saw, we just got to see some of the animals that we didn't get to see naturally, which were like the elephants and things like that.

Oh, right.

Then to end our trip, I think this was like two or three nights, we went to the Ghili Islands.

I always said the Ghilis were in Thailand.

That's wrong.

They're there.

Yeah,

I think it's still considered part of Bali.

It's definitely Indonesia.

It's off the coast of Bali.

So there's two of them.

One is a party island.

It's kind of like the movie Couples Retreat, where there's one for like, you know, spirituality and fun.

And then there's one for like, if you want to get your fuck on, like, that's the island to go.

And we went to Gili Air, which was the non-party, more chill.

We stayed at the Grand Sunset Ghillie.

The boat that took us out there, dude, it's like we were trying to escape Cuba.

Like it was so run down.

There's holes in it.

There's like the engines.

We find out in the middle of the water that the boat that took the group before us blew up and killed a new husband and wife.

Blew his fucking leg clean off his body.

Or it didn't kill the wife.

It killed just the groom, blew his leg completely off his body because he was standing near the engine that blew up, that exploded.

And it killed him

on the way to the place that they were also going in the boat after them on our honeymoon.

And then like, dude, those boats, like Nicole, as we're at the dock, she's just like, I don't know, man, like, this looks really bad.

And I was like, do you want to rent a jet ski?

Like, I don't know how else we get there.

Do we not go?

That's the thing.

It's like, oh, I remember reading about a few airlines.

Don't take this airline.

Yeah.

And it was like one, like in Myanmar, like, take Myanmar air, but not Myanmar Airline.

I'm like, what?

And then you forget what's your air.

I'm like, now I don't have a phone.

Another one was, don't take the Indonesian ferries.

Yeah.

They're notoriously bad.

And then you're like, well, I'm going to this next island.

And you're like, hey, can I not take a ferry?

And they're like, what?

That's the way to get there.

You're like, oh,

I guess I'm taking an Indonesian ferry.

Some of them sink.

And it's like too far between islands.

You're just, you're dead, plus the current.

Dude,

wow.

It was really, it was really something.

But then, like, when you get, when we got to that island, that island was very cool because it felt like you were almost shipwrecked.

Like, obviously, there's hotels and stuff like that, but it felt very kind of like you're kicking around on almost an un an unfurnished island that seems very like just you know casual relaxing all that stuff everybody was australian because that is like their australians love bali love it love it i mean it's basically they're like key west they can get out there so easily yeah

cheap beers everywhere is better cooked than australia yeah and buckets they love a bucket that's more thailand but that so that scared me is like the gilly islands i had heard that they were big on psychedelics and that you could do psychedelics but it's still a muslim island.

And they were telling my wife to cover up when we left the hotel grounds.

Like, it was like kind of

not intense, but there's a whiff of what, you know, of like

the biggest Muslim country.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So we're like, you know, there's, there's Australians that are like, I'll sell you a joint, like, whatever.

And they're not that violent.

They've had a couple terrorist attacks on their, on themselves.

Oh, really?

Yeah.

I think more uprisings, but like, not Islam-based, but it's the biggest Islamic country.

And I think the reason, well,

no Arabs.

No Arabs, what I'm saying.

Maybe it's not Islam.

Maybe it's Arabs.

Maybe it's not religion.

Maybe it's not the religion at all.

So either way, they,

yeah,

everybody was Australian.

Yeah, I showed you the picture of the decomposing cat that my wife just demanded to care for for like, you know, the full days that we were on there.

Like, dude, this thing had like no eyes.

Look at it.

What do you mean?

Like ants growing off of it.

Like, this is just i don't even know why i have all these pictures it's alive yeah this thing is alive and there is no world where it looks that like that's a dead animal right yeah

but it's just moving slightly yeah so yeah that we made for my wife and i made friends though with like with this australian older couple and this is so funny man because it gives you an international perspective on like American politics is this this was September of 2016 heading into November of 2016, Hillary versus Trump?

And just to hear Australians and foreign perspective on it

was just like, was interesting because, you know, all of them, just from what they are, are fed or see or whatever, they're like, this guy Trump.

They're like, there's no way, right?

Like, there's just no way.

And I, being a road comic, I'm trying to explain to him that he's going to win.

Yeah, the people who write the stories you read are Jews.

They are not,

they're Harvard-educated Jews and they're more upscale, and they don't think they don't meet people from Dayton.

Right.

Yeah, at all.

So they can't imagine a world where anyone remotely.

Yeah, I'm getting the temperature of the country.

That's interesting to get an outside perspective.

Yeah, so that was cool.

It was kind of like the guy we were talking to almost looked like tan Phil Leotardo from the Sopranos.

Like he had just like slick back, silver hair, very like, you know, an Australian accent that almost didn't fit with his face and body.

But they were so kind and so nice.

And we just like hung out with them for three days.

We got dinner with them.

Cool.

We hung out with them.

Are you normally like that or no?

No.

Yeah.

It's something I find after like seven, eight days of being alone or just with someone that you're like, oh, now my loneliness is kicking up.

Yeah.

Before, I have no loneliness.

We're at comedy clubs.

We're talking to people and friends constantly.

Like I'm craving to be alone.

Yeah.

And then after a while, In China, it was like that.

I was like, alone alone.

By the time I got to Hong Kong, I was like, what are we all doing?

What's the scene?

Let's go.

Let's go.

Yeah.

I feel that way.

And it's funny because we were technically with each other, but we both were like, let's make friends.

Let's see.

And I am not a vacation friend guy.

I don't go on couples trips and make friends with other couples.

I have no interest in having dinner with you.

But for whatever reason, it might have been that like we've been out for a while.

And now these people are so kind.

They're older.

They're not people we would be friends with in the first place.

It was kind of a perfect, almost like

Phil Dallas.

That's nice.

Yeah.

What's it like there?

Yeah.

I don't know.

That's a broad question.

But like everywhere, they were selling mushrooms.

They were selling mushrooms dipped in acid,

which I had never done acid at that point.

So I was really scared.

Mushrooms.

Dipped in acid.

And I also was scared.

I was scared about doing a hallucinogen in a place where that's like heavily illegal.

Yeah.

Like, I don't want to be caught in the middle of a trip and be confronted with an authority figure.

My friend got arrested chasing after Benji Aflalo naked.

He was like chasing after in his apartment, and then he's like, and Benji's like, I'm leaving.

And then he didn't know how much time passed.

And then he was like, no, let me go find this guy.

It could have been an hour later.

So he's running around West Hollywood naked.

Cops picked him up, like, no, you're in a major fountain, you know.

And they put him in jail, but now he's in jail on acid.

Yeah.

It's not like, hey, tomorrow when you're sober, come back to jail.

It's like, we're in the worst possible place in jail.

Oh, God, that sucks.

Yeah.

So that's a pretty.

So you wouldn't take the acid?

No.

No, I didn't take anything.

I got scared.

I didn't even smoke weed.

I was smoking cigarettes because I actually fiended weed that bad by the end of it that I was like, I got to like do something.

So I was like just ripping butts.

And it wasn't, I threw up from it.

I got like actually sick from smoking cigarettes.

Let me ask you a question about this place.

Can I come to this end of your trip?

Yeah.

Any tips you would give anybody

if they're going or that you would tell yourself.

I wish I had brought this or done this or

spent more time, less time.

I don't know, whatever.

I actually, this is like one of the few trips, and it's probably because my wife put the whole thing together, but it was done proper the whole way through.

Like, none of it was a fuck-up.

You brought sandals, brought

sandals.

The one thing, actually, you know what?

Put sunblock on your back when you're going to snorkel with turtles.

Nice.

Because I forgot.

Oh, yeah.

And I just.

And you're right there up.

You're freeing up and you're looking down.

I had like a back of the heel new sneaker blister just on the hump of my back.

It was awful.

It was so and I was just like in pain for two or three days after that.

Oh, so

just to close it out, this is how this is how it ended, which is kind of the most interesting part of the whole trip.

So on the way back, two weeks are done.

We're getting ready to leave.

We're all set.

It's raining, drizzling, or whatever.

Delays, delays of the flight.

What the fuck is going on?

They cancel our flight out of nowhere.

It turns out that it's because it's a union rule that the people couldn't fly that much much back-to-back hours.

They had to stop overnight and then they had to pick it up the next day.

They tried to act as though it was an act of God, that it was the weather that diverted everything so they didn't have to make good on the insurance.

They always do that.

I

organized a sit-in in the Qatar Airlines office of

the Bali airport.

Me and 20 Spaniards from Spain sat in the office, refused to move until I got them to write us all notarized letters that this was not an act of God and our insurance should be honored.

And I got them to sign it for all of us.

Wow.

And literally people from Spain like shaking their fists, being so fired up, thanking me, all this shit.

So my wife.

violates Sharia law in Doha and almost like gets killed.

So we have this letter or whatever.

We're not going back to fucking, you know, Indonesia at any time soon.

So my wife takes the letter, goes straight to the Qatar Airlines thing.

The guy shakes my hand, goes, Hello, Mrs.

Cannon.

She grabs his hand and shakes him, like just fucking raw dog hand there.

And he's like, Uh-uh, like just a very clear violation of their religious rules.

And he kind of like, uh, and I'm like, please go by the gate.

I'm like, it looked like there was going to be a thing.

I was like, I need you to go.

Don't read a book.

Just don't vote.

Go over there.

Look normal.

And I talk that guy into giving both of us $15,000 pods, business class pods, from Doha to New York for the flight back.

13 and a half hours where I drank like 20-year whiskey the entire time.

Wow.

Didn't sleep a wink because I wanted to live it up.

I'm eating every meal, every snack, ordering, blacking out, watching Silverlining's playbook.

You name it, dude.

In a complete laydown, unbelievable, brand new Qatar Airlines.

Wow.

Wow, that's a nice airline, too.

Up there.

Wow.

And pods.

Yeah.

Unbelievable.

What a good honeymoon.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We ended up coming back a day late, but because of that and because of my sitting.

Worth it.

Yeah.

We got that.

Oh, and they put us up in a hotel in the airport, and we made friends with like a Lithuanian couple.

If you're like, we can go for 14 days or 15.

If we stay an extra day, we'll have to pay for an extra food.

That's $7.

But we'll get pods and a free hotel.

You're like, oh, well, the 15 then.

Let's do the 15.

Done.

We do have to make a trip to the airport and then right back.

It's like, yeah, the 15.

Wow.

Yeah, it was sick.

But highly recommend all three of those places.

It does seem like those are the three spots to go

in Bali.

Again, if you're coming off of a long flight, pamper yourself those first few days.

Take care of yourself.

Rest up.

Put yourself in the middle of a bud for the bulk of your journey because that's right in the woods, right in the thick of everything.

You get to go to the bottom.

It's so different than the oceans.

So different.

You're in the jungle.

It seems like an island.

It's massive.

Yes.

It's not like, you know, it's not like, yeah, it's bigger than Hawaii, I think.

Maybe.

I'm not sure.

Yeah, I'm not sure.

But you go in and you're like, you're in.

Yeah.

You're not near the ocean.

No, it is the thick, thick woods.

Jungle.

Yeah.

And then the Gilly Islands were just like each place was remarkably different from each other and kind of perfectly planned out in terms of how we should have both started the trip, bulked the trip, and then came down from the trip.

Yeah, because people come back from vacations and they go right back to work the next day.

They get back at like 7 p.m.

They go back and it's like tough.

It's almost like you want to land Saturday afternoon.

Yep.

So you can have all day Sunday to chill, recuperate almost.

Yeah.

And then go back to work.

But going to a beach to end is like kind of that.

Yeah.

Well, funny enough, the like day I flew home 24 hours in flight, like I'm hammered from drinking all this whiskey.

I get, we get home in the morning.

That night I had like my access live taping.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I hadn't done stand-up in two weeks.

I'm like half hung over.

I'm fat-faced from the fucking honeymoon.

Ended up not mattering.

Yeah, big at the time.

Ended up not mattering.

Not at all.

Wow, that's awesome.

That's what a fucking trip, dude.

Yeah.

It was really, it was a trip of a lifetime, truly.

Damn.

Way to go.

Way to fucking do something nice instead of going to fucking New York.

Right.

You know, going to like the woods and fucking whatever.

Something different.

And honestly,

all credit goes to my wife for that because I would have like been like, let's go to Hawaii.

Some hack shit.

Yeah.

Do you have any travel tips?

I ask everybody this.

It's okay if you don't have one, but just a thought if you have one

of like when you travel, you should do this.

I always take edibles before I get on a plane.

That's a good one.

Edibles.

Because everybody's going to tell you, pack light, do whatever.

That's the massive one.

Pack light.

I am edibles before a flight, and I take a tremendous amount because that's the only way I'm going to get some sleep.

And it's going to get me there.

Yeah.

So you can be high the whole way,

especially long flights.

Yeah, yeah.

That's it.

So, like, before.

So you're not cranky and fucked up.

You're like, oh, I just came off a great trip.

I had to just fly.

I flew early in the morning the other day down to Tampa, and I took 200 milligrams as I arrived to the airport.

So by the time I get through security,

the march is on.

The warmth is approaching.

And so I start to feel it, whatever.

You get yourself a coffee.

I actually don't get a coffee because I'm trying to sleep.

It's early.

And I just like zone out, listen to a pod, an NBA pod, and then just, I'm out.

One tip for that is be careful how early you take it.

Me and Nick Thune did it on the way back from Montreal.

We're like taking the shuttle.

And we were in trying to do the thing of like enter the first three letters of your city.

And we were like, kept looking at, we were like copying off each other.

Like,

what are you putting for this?

Like, oh my God.

And we just like, it was so hard to do it.

We're like, what the fuck?

So I say,

as you get to the airport.

So once you get through security, as you're boarding, it's like, here it is.

Oh, yeah.

And set an alarm, time to board.

So if you wander off, like, oh, shit, my alarm.

Perfect.

Perfect.

Anyway, Mike Cannon, thank you.

I am Mike Cannon on Instagram.

He's on the Christy Chaos podcast all the time now.

That's new, huh?

That's cool.

Yeah.

On the road with you in New England.

Yeah, that already happened.

That already happened.

It was great.

What a fun time.

Three shows of the Wilbur.

That's sick.

Oh, it is sick.

Yeah.

That's wild.

That's a wild time for comedy.

I'm not even like a famous person.

I'm not like those guys.

So

it's pretty wild.

I'm adding a second show at a yoga studio in Lansing, Michigan.

Yeah, guys, check them out.

And again, obliterate that fucking picture.

Obliterate it with comments.

Check out the Patreon.

Damn, I don't know.

Let's just call it UB Trippin'.

It's not.

It's Ari Shafara.

We're going to send someone around the world.

That's what I'm doing with my Patreon.

Oh, that's a good idea.

We're going to pick a kid out, and we're going to send him around the world for a year.

That's excellent.

Some gapier kid.

We're going to have him try to check in for

dude.

That's an awesome idea.

Yeah.

Try to check in every month or so if he can.

Try to find a computer to hostle, register a new Gmail account.

What you have to do is you have to outfit this kid like he's on the show alone.

So you have to give him batteries and cameras to vlog himself.

No, I want him to disappear.

Damn.

All right.

I want him to disappear.

Have you seen Alone, though?

Yeah.

It's real good.

Yeah.

I got that.

It's like make all this stuff, but then you're working and it's this weird thing.

What I want him to do or her is to just get lost.

Yeah.

And then, but if they can, once in a while, find a postcard or fucking whatever.

That's another thing.

But if you were sent a postcard from somewhere, I'll read it on the Patreon.

It's going to be like the videos from Interstellar.

Yeah.

He's going to age 70.

Just once in a while, try to check in.

Let us know what you're up to, but just get lost out there.

That's a good idea.

I love that.

I got to find an email address for them to send in applications for this because I'm excited about the idea of it.

It's a great idea.

And so Southeast Asia is definitely going to be up there in the possibilities, if not like South America.

Anyway, Mike Cannon, Cannon, thank you very much.

Go to Bali, everybody.

Hey, everybody.

Well, that's the episode.

Thank you very much, Mike Cannon, for coming town and telling us about it.

Man, it really brought me back to Indo, bro.

What a wild place.

I mean, I got to do an episode myself.

Who's going to interview me?

Oh, my God.

Yeah, that place is fucking wild.

And Mike really, owah, that hurt.

That hurt.

Ari, why don't you just do this in a fucking studio like everybody else?

You're hurting yourself for a fucking podcast outro that only five percent of people even listen to.

Bandit, come.

Um, but thank you very much.

Today's episode is produced by Your Mom's House Network.

It's edited expertly by Alan Coffee.

We got to do an episode from me.

I got one with Guatemala coming.

Got to interview some me on someone's.

Oh, and I just did a great one with Paul Morrissey.

I think I might put that out in January or maybe a year wrap-up.

Maybe it'll be at the end of the year.

But really, where it got me started traveling.

Me and Paul Morrissey took this trip to Switzerland and we made a deal with each other.

And it really changed the course of my life.

And you guys are going to love that one.

Changed the course of both of our lives, to be honest.

And it really, that's, we'll talk on that podcast about why this podcast even exists This whole series even exists great first season so far.

I believe what do I love about Indonesia in Ubud I like the monkeys

I Got laid in Bali that was pretty nice actually

Yeah, it was the only time I got laid Got one BJ in Thailand, Chiang Mai.

Only time I got laid in the whole Southeast Asia trip, four months.

Also, wasn't masturbating at the time.

Forgot about that.

No masturbation, no fucking.

Two comes.

No, I came more than once with the chick I fucked.

Really all over the island of Bali.

Indonesia fucking ruled, you guys.

I had the best fucking time.

I touched a Komodo dragon.

I touched a monkey.

I smoked some of the worst weed in the world outside Australia

and Washington Square Park.

And I just...

you guys gotta go I'd say it's one of the two places that's kind of accessible to to Westerners

it's it's scary but not so scary it'd be Bali in Indonesia bandit bandit bandit no hey hey hey hey come come bandit

huh all right well fuck off

Bali in Indonesia and then really not even Bangkok, but Bangkok and Chiang Mai in Thailand.

I don't think anywhere else in Indonesia is that

accessible.

And I mean, I guess like Shanghai, not Shanghai, Saigon.

But people don't really go there.

They do, but it's not like,

it's not a first stop, Saigon.

Bangkok, Chiang Mai is, and Bali, all over the island of Bali, I'd say.

If you're looking to go to Southeast Asia or Asia in general and you're a little bit scared, those are great cities.

And then also what that offers you is places to go outward from there to really get lost.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much, Mike Cannon.

Until next week, with the Wanton Don.

I'm Ari Schiffer, unless I have to delay it again, but I don't think I will be.

When did he say he's out of town?

We got Jeffrey Osmas coming about Israel.

We got Wanton Don.

We got one of me, maybe Dragos, this Romanian comedian that we did one in Romania about Tokyo.

We got to do a road one.

I got a couple of those.

And one with me in Guatemala that we did in

Gold Coast,

Australia.

We got some good ones coming.

Don't forget to tune into the ones that I do because I'm a pretty good traveler.

You should tune to the ones that I'm a guest on.

All right, leave your trippy awards.

Bye, guys.

Till next week.

Salong!

Oh, wait.

No, I don't know how to say it in Bahasa.
