We're going to talk about travel today.

It's you be trippin'.

Yeah.

Have you looked at these since then?

I don't really know if I've gone.

And this is Amsterdam.

It's my friend pooping in the hotel.

Why'd you blur?

Because that was the bathroom wall.

My bed's on the other side.

I was like, dude, I know what you're doing in there.

And he's like, what do you mean?

And I was like, I'll show you.

But

this is...

Oh, Fluger Flug.

Fluger Farg.

I forgot about that.

We kept calling each other Flugerfargs.

I was like, dude, you're being such a fucking Pfluger Flarg.

What's

Yeah, I have no idea what it's called.

And then just

out in the open.

Let me see that one again.

Let me see that one again.

What is this?

Watch out for a kid being taken.

Is that forbidden?

To steal a child?

Forbidden.

It's the.

Oh, this forbidden.

That's what that sign says.

I can interpret.

Alan.

Yeah, I just took pictures of random shit.

I'm not really good at.

Oh, I said this looks like Joe List.

It does.

Swedish protester Joe List.

All right, all right, all right, let's start.

We're here with Dance Oder.

How are you doing?

All right, we'll go through this.

Yeah.

Well, let's just do it.

What is this?

You went to Sweden?

Yeah, I went to

summer of 2018.

It was the only time in my life I've ever done like a...

December 2018, yeah.

I did like an eat-prey love thing.

It was the only time in my life where I was like a white lady.

I was in Nashville doing Zaney's and I looked up Queens of the Stone Age's tour schedule, and they were playing in Stockholm, Sweden.

And

I've seen them a lot, and I was like, dude, my family, my dad's family is from Sweden.

It's where Soder comes from.

It's actually Soder.

Really?

Soder?

It's Suder.

It means South, I think, with an umbla.

Whenever I try to say it in Swedish, they always correct me.

I've never gotten it correct.

I've been like, Suder?

And they're like, suitor.

And they're like, suitor.

And they're like,

yeah.

So I don't know.

I need to learn how to do it.

What point in white immigration were the Norse people like, hey, what the fuck are they doing here?

Oh, I think, I don't know.

I think

Scandinavians are very

boring.

No, they're like, they're not as animated.

Right.

I feel like their history is being in the old West while the cowboys come by and like, we're going to just do stuff to your family.

Oh, what?

No, man.

I think Scandinavians, those are all Vikings and shit.

Yeah, but the ones that came to America.

Oh, they like settled down and made like a candy shop.

Yeah, in Madison or something.

Well, my family moved to San Francisco.

They went Stockholm and then jumped to San Francisco.

That's where my grandpa was born.

Grandpa?

Grandpurst.

So you just went to the fucking this for that?

No, I wanted to go see Queens of the Stone Age.

And then I was like...

I called my friend Mike and I was like, do you want to go to Stockholm?

Sweet.

You know, I was like, we should do a trip.

Me and you should go to Stockholm.

And then I talked to Lou Witzke at the bonfire, and Lou was like, oh, I'm going to be in Amsterdam four days later seeing Pearl Jam.

And I, so we turned it into...

That guy's into Pearl Jam?

It's his life's work.

So he, I love Lou.

You know, it's his life's work.

It's his, it's his magnum opus.

He, um,

so we did Sweden.

We were going to go see Queens of the Stone Age in Sweden and spend four days, go down to Amsterdam, do four days, and then fly to Reykjavik and do three days, two and a half days in Reykjavik, and then fly back to New York.

Okay.

So that's what we did.

So Stockholm was the first four days of the trip.

We stayed in an awesome hotel downtown.

It was June, so it was like light, late.

Nice, nice.

Because they're northern hemisphere.

Yeah.

So you're getting a lot of.

I love that.

How late?

Like it went to dusk around like 10:30, 11 p.m., if I remember correctly.

Nice.

So it was cool.

It was, and Sweden is beautiful.

Yeah, it's beautiful.

The girls, everything about Sweden is beautiful.

Okay.

I love

Sweden.

I just went to Stockholm.

I want to go to other places next time.

The language, I'm not going to, I'll never learn it.

I'm too stupid to learn Swedish.

It's extra things.

We don't even have them.

It's almost like singing.

Like when they're like, you know how singers can do that?

Like the way they talk is they're like,

I don't, I can't do that move.

I don't know how you, it's like a word kick flip.

I can't even Ollie.

And you want me to be like,

slow that down.

What?

Here's what's crazy:

my friend Mike bought me,

you know, their

flag is blue and yellow, but then they also have the crown, the three crowns.

Uh-huh.

That's like kind of their logo.

What is that?

For the for the previous kings.

Okay.

Shout out the Viking Kings.

And by the way, we're just doing that because it's so ridiculous that we will never learn that.

We can't.

We're too dumb to learn your language.

But

it's called the Kroner or the Kroner, yeah, that sounds right.

Is that Denmark?

Maybe they all have that.

I don't fucking know.

We're going to get killed because this means something.

This is like us.

That's like someone fucking up the United States and Mexico and being like, well, you guys are like sister states.

And you're like, what?

What?

There's heat there.

Yeah.

Like real century-old problems.

So my friend bought me this Swedish shirt and I wore it on a couple podcasts.

And people are like, do you even know what that?

Like Norwegian people were like, do you know what that means?

And you're like, no.

All I know is my grandpa came in lady here.

And now I go by Daniel Soder.

It's Cronusec.

Cronisec.

Or whatever.

It's the three crowns.

Okay, yeah.

He bought you what?

One of those?

He's bought me a t-shirt,

Mike.

Wait, wait, let me see this.

So these are pictures of this is the first night I was there.

Damn, cool.

Yeah, it's just the architecture.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

This is in Stockholm.

This is cool.

I just like this.

What is this place?

I don't know.

What's the industrial place over there, and then the old style?

Yeah, like a

almost like a neighborhood mixed with

a scrapyard?

Yeah.

I don't even know where else to.

This is how dumb of an American I am.

Oh, there we go.

Same shot.

Yeah, same shot.

Oh, just color corrected.

Yeah.

So it's like a little square, and they're doing construction on a bridge.

Okay.

Well, they're downtown.

They have Coca-Cola there.

Isn't that wonderful?

God,

my pictures really show me how stupid of an American.

You just happen to be gone.

I'm like, oh, look at this.

It's a castle in the city.

This building looks like a helmet.

Yeah, it looks like a fucking Madonna's cone tit.

But it was beautiful there.

Yeah.

Like the alleyways and like that kind of stuff.

That's cool.

It's like I've been to London and I've been to

London, but it was like European in a different style that I really liked.

It feels weird, right?

Yeah.

Sweden is really cool.

The people there are very nice.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You know,

outgoing, or it's just like.

They're just like, they're not in your shit.

They're just like, hello.

Like, agreeable.

Cool.

It's there.

Like, I've been to

Holland gave me the energy that we give people in Times Square.

That's how it felt with all the Dutch people in Amsterdam.

What?

They're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, red light district.

Like the way we're like, yeah, fucking MM store.

Times Square, cool.

You can't do that.

That's what they're on.

You're not going to anything cool here.

That was the feeling I got when I was in Amsterdam from the locals.

Stockholm,

I caught the syndrome, baby.

You loved it.

I loved it.

What'd you do?

Tell me what you did all day.

Went to the Viking Museum.

Yeah.

That's where I saw protester Joe List.

Oh, that guy.

Yeah, that was at the museum.

But then we went to

the Vasa Museum.

What is it?

The Vasa Museum is a warship from, I think, the 17th century.

Yeah.

Giant wooden ship.

Oh, let me see that one.

And they have it reconstructed.

You can't walk inside the ship, but you can walk around it and look inside and shit.

And it was...

Damn, that's Viking as fuck.

It was really fucking cool.

Whoa.

That's the master.

it's the front of it.

Those are the sails.

How big is that?

It's fucking huge, dude.

It is huge.

Like walking around it, you're like, this is a massive ship.

I've only seen shit like this.

And you can't go on?

Fuck, I'd want to go on it.

No, because it's old.

It's old as hell.

But they rebuilt it in this museum.

And then they have this video you can watch on why it sank.

Yeah.

And it's because of

a technical error.

It wasn't even like a war.

Oh, really?

It's such a bummer of a video.

Because you're like, that's it?

That's what took this thing out.

And then these were all these little boats.

I think this might be Amsterdam.

Wait, why does Stockholm rule so much?

I really liked it, dude.

I really liked it because it was really clean.

Yeah.

Everything was like, I was there in June, so everything was green.

Yeah.

Everyone was very nice.

Like,

how'd you get into it, people?

We would go to, we went to restaurants, billions, apparently is popular in Sweden.

People were coming up and saying hello.

And so, like, we...

Recognize you from it?

Yeah.

Wow.

Probably more than anywhere I've been out of the country.

That's cool.

Yeah, it was pretty.

That's weird, though.

Hey, what's up?

Malejens.

Hey, everybody.

Breaking into today's episode to let you know a little bit about the guest, Dan Soder.

He is legitimately one of the best comics in the world.

He makes me die laughing every time I see him at the stand.

He's never out of the cell at the same time.

He goes early.

I go late, but I guess I only see him at the stand and on the road.

Yeah, we've been festivals together, but he crushes.

He's guys, he's like a top five comic.

He's hitting new strides every day.

That's like,

I mean, the mixture of silly and like, and like good points that he has with, with like,

with like punchlines,

voices, act outs.

And then just like well-written.

It's just, it's crazy.

He's just hitting on a high, high level.

And he's got a new theater tour.

It's out right now.

His first, actually, major theater tour.

And you guys should always see him.

He's legitimately one of the best comics in the country.

Like, he's amazing, amazing.

You should be able to say you saw him on the first theater tour.

It's worth it.

And it's like, like I always say, like, this is a guaranteed good night out.

And honestly, I'm a little too dark.

I'm going to walk people.

There's a decent chance if you come see me, you're going to leave having a worse time than you went in on.

With Dan, it's not like that.

You're going to enjoy it.

And I'm not saying he's safe.

I'm just saying, like,

he's not like me and Adrian.

He's not going to make you mad.

He's just going to lead you down a great path and have a great time.

He's just awesome.

He's just an awesome comic.

And he's in these theaters now.

He's at the Moor in Seattle.

Bye, everybody.

Let's get back to the episode.

Dude, my favorite story, and I'll tell it.

He won't care.

I told this story.

So we,

the first night, we just went out, had dinner.

Whatever.

Second day, we went to the Vikings exhibit at the museum, and then we went to the Vasa Museum.

So we went to two museums in a day.

And then at night, we got a great dinner, got some seafood, and then my friend Mike was getting drunk.

Like Fujak started getting a little like,

started throwing them back.

And I didn't have weed.

I didn't travel with weed, but I traveled with a couple of Tootsie rolls that were edibles.

So I was like, oh, I'll eat an edible.

Those have come to so many.

I know the ones you're talking about.

They've come to so many countries and back up.

Vecchiown took it to Japan and ate one and almost had to go to an emergency room in Tokyo.

But I had those Tootsie rolls and I was like, great, I'll eat a Tootsie Roll.

So I ate a Tootsie Roll and I went to a bar with him.

Yeah.

And it was fine.

And then I was like, we went back to his room and watched American Dad on his, he had like a new laptop.

So I was like, this is awesome.

And then I was like, I'm going to go to bed.

And I was like, I'll see you in the morning.

And he kept being like, oh, well, maybe we should go out to the bar.

And I'm like, nah, man.

It's like 11.30.

We'll wake up and do stuff.

This is day one?

Day two.

Day two going into day three.

Day three is the concert.

So I'm like, hey, we'll do some stuff in the morning and then we'll go to the concert.

And he's like, great.

So I wake up.

This hotel had an awesome breakfast, like a buffet.

Go through.

It was fucking incredible.

Went through twice.

How much?

And part of the stay.

Oh, okay.

That's in the bill for the hotel.

How much is the hotel?

High-level, mid-level?

Mid-level.

Okay.

Good room.

I would look it up again.

I would stay back there if I went back to Stockholm because it was like a really nice room.

Cool.

Enjoyed everything about it.

Breakfast was awesome.

So I eat breakfast.

I'm like, if I get all get seconds, where the fuck is Vujak?

I'm like waiting there.

I'm like, all right.

I go get a coffee from down the street.

Come back.

I get my laptop.

I go downstairs.

I write for 45 minutes.

Just like writing jokes, waiting.

put my laptop back.

Finally, when I put my laptop back, I knock on the door.

And Fujiak comes to the door and he opens it up and he's like, hey.

And I'm like, what's up, dude?

It's like 11.30.

And he's like, yeah.

He goes, I went to let out.

That's what it was.

The night before, he kept going, let's go to let out.

What's let-out?

And I was like, he kept saying let out.

What's let out?

But he was drunk.

And he was like, let's go to let out.

And I was like, I know what getting the let-out is.

Is that what he said?

he was let's let the let out he kept saying let out and i was like i

i really have no idea what the fuck you're talking about

he meant when the bar lets out but he was drunk i went till they closed the bar no but the night before he kept going let's go to let out and i didn't get what he meant and then he was like when the bar lets out and i'm like that's like 3 a.m here he's like yeah what do you mean go to let out like when they all everyone leaves to be like hey party he wanted to go party he wanted to go to an after party basically

And I see him.

I go to his room.

I'm like, where were you?

He's like, I went to let out.

He's like, I went to a bar, had some more drinks.

And then I went and waited.

And he's like, and a bunch of clubs let out.

And I was like, did it lead to anything?

He was like, no, I just came back.

He was just up till like 5.30 drunk.

He waited three hours to go to an after-party?

Dude, it was more than that.

I probably went to my room at like 11.45 midnight.

So he waited like three hours.

He went and drank for three more hours.

Look at us getting the eye rubbies.

I know.

Is this part of the flood?

Is this from your dead tea?

Maybe.

Yeah, it might be for the dead guy.

I hope not.

Sir, please leave me alone.

My grandmother is about to cross over.

So the next day we woke up

and went to

the child.

And that's good.

That's where we got the abduction.

So apparently, it's local custom to abduct a child.

There's not even a don't.

If you can read Swedish,

please tell me what this means.

For

makes me feel that means forbidden.

Yeah.

Man-boy love forbidden.

We can look this up.

Dude, yeah, look at it.

Translate that.

God, the internet's a beautiful thing sometimes.

Find out what that means.

And why is that adult holding that child's hand?

It can't be parental.

It has to be anything but parental.

And also get a pronunciation.

Oh, yeah.

To watch.

one of their RB.

Hold on.

Watch one of their RB runs.

Valnervanser.

Fjor.

But you got to hit the umlaut.

I know, I don't know how to get the fucking umlaut.

Got to hold it.

Hold it down.

Good deliveries, prohibited.

Goods deliveries.

Goods deliveries prohibited.

Excuse me.

So is it good.

Are they saying child goods?

What does that mean?

Are we breaking into a pet in Stockholm?

Two comedians.

Yeah, for

goods deliveries prohibited.

What the fuck does that mean?

Two comedians breaking down a power ring in Stockholm.

That's been going since King Gunter.

We think we unlocked something.

We had to look at it from an outside perspective.

Yeah, you have to not know the language to see what they're saying.

Do you think that's what's the original Epstein Islands?

It's one of those pictures where you relax your eyes and you can see the picture, which, by the way, I could never do.

Oh, really?

Magic guy.

I was like, oh, there's a boat.

There's a boat in there.

I never got it.

Really?

It's the first time I've admitted it.

All right, I've lied about that more than anything.

Every magic guy I've lied about.

I got it.

Shut right.

You hear what they're saying?

Shut up.

Shut everyone.

Sailboat, right?

Yeah.

Oh, right.

Oh, cool.

No, no, no.

Cool.

It's like, oh, look at the.

You wait for someone else to say it.

Oh, yeah.

Look at the.

Yeah, looking at Sweden and Norway, there would be some beef.

You guys are touching.

Finland's at least got the water between you.

Up top.

Up top.

I'm looking at Sweden and Finland.

Up at Scandinavia.

Okay, let's see what we got here.

Oh, yeah, those are big, by the way.

Yeah.

All the way up to the top Norway and then up in Finland.

Yeah, and then that's Stockholm's on the east.

Uppsala is where my family's from, I think.

Where'd you go?

Where was it?

I went to Stockholm.

Where is Stockholm?

To the right.

Stockholm.

There you go.

Pretty high up.

Yeah, and then

Uppsala, which are probably butchering that pronunciation.

It's right there.

Yeah.

Oh, did you get a pronunciation on what we said?

Not a pronunciation, just a.

Hold on.

Say it out loud.

Can you make it say it out loud?

Verula Vrenzer Forbidna.

Well, we weren't going to get that.

No way.

And by the way, that's probably not even right.

Like, Swedish people are like.

She doesn't sound like she's saying it right.

Forbidna?

She says it with no soul.

Nothing.

She says it with the soul of a computer.

And so then we got to go to quiz of the stone age at um

It's on the water.

It's fucking really cool.

And apparently it's been

like a popular venue forever.

Gron alund.

Let me see the stage.

Can't believe a guy died above you.

It's a soul.

That's unfinished business, like from record mortar.

Wow, that's cool.

So you got like the roller coaster?

Gronal Lund concerts.

You got like the roller coaster.

They go while you're you're doing it?

Yeah.

While you're there, roller coaster go by you?

Yeah, the amusement park was open.

Wow.

Cool.

So see, that's a roller coaster right there.

That's where you're standing for the concert?

Yeah.

No fucking way.

You're right under it.

Yeah.

You were like.

Who are you pointing at?

Some kid you're about to abduct.

You're pointing right at him.

Grown alone.

Four budna.

Very, very good.

Dan, for budna.

See, this is the for budna.

No, Dan.

That's for Buddhna.

But this is

Joshiami, the greatest American musician in the world 20 years.

Nice.

That's me on an edible, just sucking down

NA beers.

I was just drinking so many.

Dude, you are an example.

They're like, oh, Dancer got the problem.

Yeah.

Oh, that itch is there, baby.

They're like, he just hits six at this barbecue.

Dude, Shane took me to a barbecue with Kyle Yuschek and George Kittle, and I legitimately drank a 12-pack of Heineken Zeros.

I had a half a rack of Heine Zeros to myself.

It's nice.

It's like, hey, I can't get back into this.

I I don't even know if I can drink non-alcoholics anymore.

There's Josh.

He's rocking out side stage.

You stayed up there the whole time?

Yeah, we got good tickets.

By the way, shout out to Dean Del Rey.

He got you the tickets?

Yeah, he got us the tickets in Sweden.

Wow.

Through John Theodore, the drummer.

So this was the fake beer I was drinking.

Norley's Guild.

Norland Guilds Guild.

Oh, that's cool.

Wait, let me see it again.

The beer?

Yeah.

That's their N.A.?

Yeah.

That looks like an A.

I know.

It looks like an A.

I was worried.

I asked over five people if they were sure that this was not alcoholic.

I'll go like this.

No alcohol.

Alcohol Freiden?

Yeah.

And they're going, alcohol Freiden.

We'll shout it.

Because here's the thing I respect about the Swedes.

Yeah.

They don't really bend the knee in speaking English.

They're kind of like...

I'll learn.

They learn it.

They know it.

But it doesn't feel like...

You know, when you've gone to countries that America's fucked with?

Yeah.

And and there's that feeling of like, you learned English, and this was definitely, they're like, when you speak to someone in English over there, they're like, yeah, I don't know, I just know it because your tongue is easy,

unlike ours and our sing songs.

So these were boats.

I thought that was Thunder in Paradise.

It's pretty cool.

That did look exactly like that.

Yeah.

And then this was, we were walking around.

So you just walked around all day?

Yeah.

How was the concert?

How much did they go?

Unbelievable.

Really?

It was one of the coolest experiences of my life.

One of my favorite Queens of the Stone Age is.

Really?

Yeah, they played a full full set.

They played like, I think, 80 or 90 minutes.

It was, and then, oh, yeah, Fluger Flarg.

We kept calling each other.

This was the store by our hotel.

I kept calling it.

Me and Fujack were like, you fucking Pfluger Flarg.

It was fun as hell, dude.

Hey, guys.

Today's episode of Huby Trippin' is brought to you by Thrive Market.

Guys, Thrive's easy to use.

filter by diet, like gluten-free, paleo, keto, low-sugar, vegan, whatever.

So you're not wasting time reading every label.

It's an easy place to get tons of for myself, snack food.

So, when I'm working late, I can just snack away.

They're like, their chips are great, everything's great.

Everything they sell is also non-GMO and meets incredibly high standards.

They actually ban over a thousand ingredients that are still allowed in the U in U.S.

products.

Things like artificial dyes, preservatives, and seed oils that I've been trying to avoid.

You ever hear me talk about how, like, you go to another country and then you eat junk food, and then you actually lose weight?

I don't want to get into it, but I think Thrive is kind of aligned with what we're talking about here, which is not,

you know, putting trash into our bodies.

Now let's get back to the episode.

This fall, explore California in a brand new Toyota hybrid.

From the stylish Camry to the adventure-ready RAV4 or the spacious Grand Highlander.

Every new Toyota comes with Toyota Care, a two-year complimentary scheduled maintenance plan, an exclusive hybrid battery warranty, and Toyota's legendary quality and reliability.

Visit your local Toyota dealer for a test drive.

Toyota, let's go places.

See your local Toyota dealer for hybrid battery warranty details.

It was one of those trips where you're like,

everything about it, I'm glad I did.

Like what?

Like, just the fact that I took a risk to be like, let's go see Queens of the Stone Age in Stockholm.

The hotel I got was great.

The

experience of walking around, being like

a full-on tourist.

Having no problem about doing that.

It's so weird.

And then you just look at stores like, whoa.

They're just, yeah, like Flugerflag.

I don't know.

That could be like a fucking copy place.

But look at all the time he does too.

It's cool.

Yeah, but you just like see words and how words look like completely different.

It's what it did is it made me soften my opinion of when I'm in New York and I get

aggravated with tourists.

Oh, yeah.

Because I'm like, oh, dude, these people...

Our language is...

They go into a Walmart like a greeter.

Yeah, but

just stuff.

They're like, that's how they do stuff here.

Like Joe and the Juice was huge over there, so it was crazy watching it get big in America.

Joe and the Juice, yeah, yeah.

Where you're like, oh, that's Swedish.

Like, I saw that in Sweden.

I think I got it in Iceland.

Yeah, I think it might be.

I don't know if it's actually.

It's one of those, but I think I was like, that's where I saw it too, in that region.

Yeah, those Cold Whites.

They figured out Joe and the Juice.

Joe and the Juice.

The hot ginger shot.

Yeah.

That's fucking nice.

But it is, because you're living up there.

You got to learn how to survive for centuries.

Yeah.

It's so far north.

Yeah, it's fucking high up there.

I mean,

you picture Sweden kind of like we're pulling it, but it's like

look how high up.

it's like Alaska.

It's Alaska.

It's deep in Alaska.

I mean, Stockholm's almost even with Alaska.

See, we're

lived in Kenai in Orwell.

That's why you liked it.

It's the same fucking level.

Yeah, dude.

That's crazy.

I've never even really noticed that.

Almost.

Good job, giant map.

Giant map doing the heavy lifting.

But yeah, dude,

it's like.

Is that longitude or latitude?

Right?

What is that?

We should know.

We know, right?

God, we're really excited about it.

Latitude is flat.

Longitude is long.

But they're both long.

When America's empire ends, which, just like my grandmother, is in hospice.

Yeah.

This will be a moment that shows how stupid the average American man is.

I'm surprised they stayed as an empire that long.

Yeah, I know.

We can't identify.

We're like, man, Alaska and fucking Stockholm are the same size.

What is that?

Up or down or left or right?

People who know that stuff.

Yeah.

Yeah, it is.

But the whole size of Sweden is like the same size as from

to fucking egypt yeah poland poland all the way through italy is the size of ari's fingers have measured it perfectly wow yeah perfectly i mean look at that

yeah dude it's the size of sweden is like it from turkey to almost iran like that's insane yeah covering syria iraq look how what that's like three two states three states no that's the whole fucking eastern seaboard

miami to to montreal someone who's smart, do the math.

No, fuck you.

Do you guys think you're better than us?

Do the math.

You fluger flarks.

What was the food like?

What did you get there?

Anything else?

It was like

it was good.

There was some fish.

You could get the fish, which there was always fish options.

That was like Iceland.

When you went to Iceland, they had like fish stew, and you're like, yeah, I trust you guys know how to do this.

It's like being at a coastal city and you're like, I'll get sushi here.

Yeah.

Nebraska, no.

Yeah.

Or like even in like Arizona, I never trusted sushi.

Dog.

Dog.

You'd want to be in Korea.

Yes.

Why would you get dog in like in like

Syria?

No one.

Sri Lanka.

Don't treat it with respect.

No, go where the dish is from.

Get a cheesesteak in Philly.

You get a dog.

Have you been to Korea?

Is that true?

What?

I'm positive it is.

Yeah, I'm sure it's cuisine.

Just where is it?

Where is it known?

How much would you get to?

I think Korea, China also,

but not as much as Korea.

Korea is like, it's it's known for that they're they're

katie and i have talked about this before but their

do you think is what can

split over i but i'm thinking like

i won't do that but their outlook on us loving dogs uh-huh is the way we make fun of india for loving cows dude when i walk by the one of the moss with bandit you could just tell they're just like i'm gonna kick the shit out of this dog if it comes near me that's a fucking dog

are we treated differently it's an insult like come on bandit come on come on these people don't respect Everywhere else, it's an insult.

And in America, we're like, it's my best friend.

I sleep.

Don't with me.

Kisses.

And they're like,

you're a dog.

You're a shit dog.

And then us, we're like, come here, buttons.

I fucking love my dog.

Fuck you and your fucking hatred of dogs.

Dogs are our friends, not for eating.

Yeah, I think they do must look like it.

My buddy Rolf said he does speeches in schools, and they're always like, Have you ever eaten dog?

And he's like,

Because he's like, Yeah.

But, guys, they look at our the way we treat our grandparents with like equal contempt.

They're like, They think what we do is barbaric with our grandparents.

Sending our grandparents off to like old-age homes, grandparents.

Yeah, and then

you're worried about them eating a fucking readily available meat source.

I'm going through it right now.

If you, my grandma's 97, we treat our elderly like we treat fruit.

Yeah, It's truly like fruit.

The way we treat fruit, where you go, this banana is like mostly brown.

And you're like, that banana is still good.

Some good.

See the bedroom.

Some of them.

Eat it, eat it.

Eat the good part.

Not

this peach is a little sour.

And you're like, fucking eat it.

That's how we treat our old people.

We're just like, get out of here, uncle.

You old uncle.

And that's where I'm going to be.

Yeah.

Because me and you are in the no kid train.

Yeah.

We're going to be old uncles.

We're going to be old uncles.

Someone has to take care of us.

Get ready for our

facility, dude.

Oh, we're in there.

I'm already eyeing up.

I mean, I guess it'd be fun.

People your age.

Can I honestly tell you?

I don't know if technology is.

That's where you're not a burden.

Yeah.

It's not going to be that bad.

It's not going to be that bad.

I was just sick.

They get you in a VR when you're in there.

It's like

reliving the fucking dance you did.

Oh, my God.

Come back to 1998.

I'm like,

I smoke cigarettes.

I got sick like a month ago and was in bed for like three days and I was like, I got video games.

I got TV.

Started watching TV shows.

I was like, this isn't that bad.

That's what it's going to be like when we're old.

When we're old fruit.

Not bad.

Old fruits.

My anus needs

express my anal gland.

That's it.

How about you?

Who are you?

I'm watching my stuff.

I'm watching wrestling.

Won't be that bad.

Calling everyone a fluger flag.

How long did you just do that for?

Four days.

That's good.

Yeah, it was funny would you go back yeah i want to go back i want to go back i want to take a uh about a week and go up to like uppsala i heard they have a thing i want to go north i want to go norway like tromston all these places where they have the ark you ever heard of that no it's like uh they have every seed of every plant in the world and they have it up there just in case there's some fucking some shit goes wrong what they can replant any plant

tree they have like a backup yeah they have like every type of apple tree seed no every pear tree every fucking star You tell me I can go get a grandma's.

What?

Tell me I can go get a nice Washington.

No, no, no, no.

You can't get one.

You get a seed for it.

That's where it starts, brother.

Yeah, that's where it starts.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's Northern Light shit, right?

Yeah.

All up there.

Yeah, I would love to go up there.

Karuna.

Doing mushrooms up there has probably got to be intense.

That's where it started.

If it's had any sort of connection to the whatever.

It's like, that's it.

I learned about it through Rogan.

He would talk about how they would do.

And then, by the way, when you look up what kind of mushrooms they were taking, they weren't the fun kind.

They were the kind that like berserker mode oh wow they would go insane and slaughter a whole village you get your hand chopped off and you're like keep going

yeah dude your fucking arms lopped off or you just you take a sword to the because a lot of times um when you read up on it some of their swords like a lot of their swords obviously cut your arm off and shit but some of their swords were for blunt like breaking bones.

You'd swing a broad sword, so you'd just be like, fuck!

If you just got your arm broken, but you're like a giant pipe.

Yeah.

Chewing in the hut.

It's like the camera from the 1979 video of smashing pumpkins.

You're like,

jelly arm.

Yeah.

Jelly arm bouncing around.

It's just still like learning to fight lefty.

They were taking mushroom for work, not for sport.

Oh, wow.

They were like, we got to take this village.

And they were good at sailing.

They come up with songs.

That's where the Vikings are, not Norway.

It's Sweden.

Both.

Sweden and Norway.

Probably Finland.

Finland probably got in on the action.

I'm not trying to hate on them.

They love Conan.

I love them for that.

Yeah.

Where?

Finland?

Oh, yeah.

Conan was like Conan O'Brien.

There was just an episode arc where he was huge there.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I loved it.

I feel like Finland would be not the Vikings, would be the more land people.

And then these people would be like, want to get that way.

Yeah, well, they were sailing.

Some people believe that.

Sounds like Viking.

I think it was either Norwegian Norwegian or Swedish.

Vikings hit North America way before.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But I had a Bitcoin.

It'd be so cool if I actually knew this stuff.

Yeah.

But why?

They can make a TV show that'll teach me that it's probably misinformation.

It's a place that I want to go back to and spend time and do like a relaxing seven to ten days.

That'd be cool.

Summer, right?

Yeah.

I would probably go early summer where it's not hot.

Because, by the way,

would it?

They,

this is 2018.

Yeah.

Very openly talking about climate change.

Like, one of the first things they bring up is that they're like, yeah, it's crazy you guys don't believe in climate change.

And we're like, huh?

Like, we were getting a burger.

And it wasn't like a political conversation that turned into that.

They were just like, so you want a burger?

It's nuts you guys don't believe in climate change.

And we're like, yeah, well, we do.

We personally believe in it.

And they're like, yeah, because it's like crazy real.

And like, we were in Holland and they're like yeah uh the rivers used to freeze and we used to skate on them but now you can't because of climate change they never freeze and you're like

oh cool well i'm gonna go back and like i don't have any control over it okay uh i believe you guys yeah i just there's a lot of my uh cousins that won't my uh my brother said when he was working out in europe somewhere they were like you're for you how many guns you have

i don't have any guns like but you're in the minority how many people have you lost in a mass shooting i'm not in the minority

like come on you're lying no and then like you don't have a

right.

Sure.

Yeah,

they were very, like, it was funny how upfront they were about climate change.

We were like, yeah, I don't know.

I don't fucking know shit about it.

Yeah.

I'm really the same attitude I'm bringing about what I experienced in Sweden.

I'm like, I don't know.

The plane I took here probably did.

Oh, whatever.

Sorry.

But it was one of those places where you're like, oh, this is really cool to visit.

I didn't feel like bored in any way.

I wanted to see more of it.

When I left, I was like kind of bummed.

We only did a certain amount of what you want to see more of, like the nature part?

Yeah, I want to go up north.

I'd want to go west.

Shit, I want to, I mean, I wouldn't.

You know, sunsets way late, like 2:30 a.m.

They were like, yeah, it was like Alaska.

Right.

But it, because it was around June 15th, so we were about to hit the summer solstice, which is the longest day

of the year.

So we were like, we were at peak.

Wow.

Sunrise.

And it was setting around

like around

midnight, 12:30.

It gets like dusk.

That's so fucking cool.

And you got it.

Were you drinking then?

No, you were done.

No, I was doing edibles, though.

Right.

It's like you're just up late.

People are pouring out of bars and it's fucking light.

We talked about this when we talked about Alaska on your old podcast, but I remember the first night I was in Alaska, I was drinking with my aunt's friend Roy, and I was in the backyard smoking a cigarette.

He's like, what time do you think it is?

And I was like,

9.45?

Because it's summer?

Yeah.

9.45?

He's like, it's 2 a.m.

Wow.

This is nuts.

That, that, you know, when you stand up when you've been drinking a lot, yeah.

It was like that, but I was already standing up.

I was like, whoa,

getting out of a casino.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's exactly it.

We were drinking Miller High Life.

I was like,

I remember that very vividly.

You know how to make a great meal.

Shop Bose.com/slash Spotify.

Yeah, but being in Sweden, that's why when Food Jack was like, let's go to Get Out, Let Out, whoever fuckers call it it.

I mean, good spirit, though, to go try it.

Dude, we had a blast.

We had a blast because we went to Amsterdam and then he was like boozing it up.

I was smoking weed the whole time.

And then I did truffles and got fucked up.

I kept some edibles for Iceland when we went to the Blue Lagoon.

Oh, nice.

It was just like a great trip.

The whitest.

So you don't normally do that?

Is that kind of new for you, right?

I've never done that.

I've never traveled my time.

Do you think comics, the ones that were like us, like the amount of time, whatever, are just always like, yeah, I just don't have money for that.

I'll never think I have money for that or time.

Yeah, I think it was a thing because I was single.

I was,

you know, I.

When Lou Witzke was like, I'm getting a vacation that week, I was like, well, now I have a reason to get a whole week off the bonfire.

So I had nothing.

I just had no obligations.

I think now what happens is the older you get, obligations come in different forms.

Relationships, work, other priorities that just pop up.

Yeah.

You know, and you're just like, oh, I can't go take it.

You're the

most traveled of anyone, I know.

Of the comics.

Definitely of the comics, but maybe outside of it.

But even that is like when I was doing this and not happening, I was like, I want to go play.

And they're like, we got to go to another thing.

I'm like, you got to give me.

I'm like, it's between seasons.

Give me some time to do something.

Do you think your travel, i mean and this is obvious because i think this is what travel does so i don't know if this is a stupid question how much has it enhanced the way you look at life day to day it's when you come back you know it's like after you come back from a mushroom trip yeah and you're just like still seeing yeah i said that when the when the uh when the crust settles again yeah and you're just like oh you still see when you go back here

just come talking from god but the crust is like settling it's like it's not fused together but yeah like i just saw stuff yeah so

right when you come back from a week or 10 days gone you're like, starting outside, it's like, oh, we did this differently here.

And sometimes it's better.

Yeah.

Sometimes it's worse.

Or it's just different.

Air conditioning.

Yes.

Right.

Oh, yeah.

Colin Quinn.

They put their shit outside in fucking when we went skiing in Switzerland.

Really?

You just put your leftovers outside.

That's not just frozen.

Yeah, because they're like that.

And there's no animals out there.

They're going to do anything.

Yeah.

That's a freezer.

I was doing shows in London and it was in the summer.

And I went to go get like an iced latte.

And they were like, we're out of ice.

I was like, oh, when are you making more?

And they were like, Yeah, now we don't make ice.

And you're just like, That's just where was that in London.

Wow.

And then you're like, In America, we have giant so much ice.

It's pumping out the worst side work,

but it's always side work.

At every restaurant, they're like, get ice.

Fill the ice cubs.

Yeah, yeah.

Because we need ice.

Yeah, they just don't get in other places.

And you're like, shit's pretty good where I live.

It's great.

Readily available ice.

No, like weird look at me.

Air conditioning that you can keep your apartment like a meat locker if you you're a hoco.

And you go to some of these places and they just, it's just not standard.

Scotland at Eden at Fringe.

When it gets hot, it's like they're like, we got a fan.

It's five days of this.

Yeah.

And then they say it's air conditioning, but whatever they're calling air conditioning, that ain't air conditioning.

Yeah, yeah.

That's like when comedy clubs don't have their liquor license and they have like that weird liquor.

Yeah.

It's like not actual liquor, it's something else.

Oh, yeah.

But you could sell it with spice of

liquor.

You could sell it with a beer and wine license.

Right.

That's like what their air conditioning is in the UK.

Maybe it's improved.

Yeah.

It should improve.

Even where you can go, like, even in

where do you go get alcohol?

It's like, oh, it's a state-run store or it's a 7-Eleven.

Like, you know, West-Earth Real

West Coast, you go to 7-Eleven here.

Like, no, you wouldn't have that.

Oh, yeah.

Some of my grocery stores.

Sweden, some of their liquor stores, I don't know if it's all their liquor stores.

Yeah.

Controlled by the government.

Yeah, I know.

That's what I'm saying.

And it makes sense.

Because look at this.

My mom's family, Irish.

Yeah.

mostly Irish, other,

probably like maybe a little English.

Yeah.

Drinkers.

Love to have a couple drinks at a barbecue.

Okay.

All of them are alive.

My father's family, Swedish,

all dead from alcohol.

So the government has to step in.

I feel like that's what it is.

I feel like they're like, guys,

you can't.

I mean, we were talking about how they used to take mushrooms to pillage.

That energy goes somewhere.

It's like what we were saying with the non-alcoholic.

You still got it there.

So maybe the government's like, we got to step in.

We got to close the gates.

Yeah, maybe.

Maybe it's like, you guys can't be true.

By the way, we could be completely wrong.

It's just something that...

No, it's truth.

I think we've nailed it.

I'm going to look it up.

I want to look up government-ran liquor stores.

While you're looking that up, do you have any advice for travel?

Now that you're such a fucking worldly traveler.

No, do you?

Also, by the way, Dan's special is out.

I've got to fucking put it in earlier.

Dan's special is out right now on YouTube.

What's it called?

What's this?

called?

Yeah, it's Dan Soder on the Road.

On the road.

I dropped 40 Minutes of New Jokes.

Fucking

time coming.

I don't like calling it a special.

Why?

That's wild.

I feel like a special is an hour.

Oh, interesting.

So I feel like this is like

an EP instead of an LP.

You know what I mean?

Interesting.

Yeah.

They're ready to go.

Yeah.

I worked on these on the road.

It was a fun.

It's been a long time.

Yeah, it's been about five years.

Portland Helium.

I liked this.

You're one of my lasting.

I saw this setup.

It looked great.

Yeah.

Pimp sent it to me.

Yeah, it was great.

He did a good job.

You're one of the lasting memories of the pandemic is the billboard at my corner

was your face for three years.

Yeah, HBO didn't change it out.

They all decided we're done with billboards.

That was also like...

Whatever's up is up.

I think,

I mean, HBO now does a few specials, but I think I was the last one of their run of how their programming used to be.

Pushing big, like this is a big moment now.

Yeah, like then it moved to max, and I still think it's a big thing, but I think like that was for me.

And then it was like, cool momentum, sit home.

But I just really haven't, I've fucked up.

I don't think I've put enough out there on YouTube to film this set.

And I was like, dude,

I like this set.

I'll check it out.

You should.

Yeah.

So it's out.

It's on my YouTube channel at Dan Soder.

You're one of the funniest comics in the fucking world, man.

Thanks, man.

And so you can't wait to watch it.

Do you have the

book in there?

Yeah.

Nice.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that's in there.

I cut.

Dude, I've quoted that one to so many people.

I've cut like I cut like about

we filmed about 50 minutes and I cut about 12 of it.

We were watching it and I was like, this doesn't have to be a certain time.

Right.

It doesn't anymore.

It really doesn't.

I just wanted it to be like, I wanted people to be able to put it on and just be like, funny, funny.

You know, when you watch watch a long set and it feels shorter

where you watch someone do 45 minutes and you're like they were like 20 minutes yeah but they were just crushing yeah you just yeah sometimes i see a comedy i'm like damn maybe that's the right amount of time it just i just wanted it to be like hey here it is on youtube it's 15 30 45.

that used to be the standard headlining yeah

so that's what it's like yeah this is uh i i took one joke out that was going to make it like 44 minutes yeah and i was like i'd just rather start it hot right it's like it was the beginning joke and i just cut it to be like we'll just start right where it it gets going.

On the road?

Yeah, on the road.

Dance odor on the road.

On the road.

I couldn't think of a title.

They're so dumb.

It's just like, see, their new one.

I don't remember the titles of even albums.

Yeah.

You know, from bands.

I'm like, the one with the

robot on the cover.

That's why you're just like, ah, it's one he's on the road.

There you go.

Government Involvement Liquor Stores in Sweden.

Systembolaget.

System Company.

Is a government-owned chain of liquor stores in Sweden.

It is the only retail store allowed to sell alcoholic beverages that contain more than 3.5 alcohol per volume.

Beer.

They can't even sell beer except for that.

So you can have like a...

Kombucha.

That is nuts.

It's called Systembologic.

Systembologet.

System Bologna.

So wait, it's a systembologetic.

System company.

The system company is a dope name for a liquor store in the United States.

If you are in a Swedish.

It sounds like a prison.

It does a gay dance club.

Welcome to the system company.

Is alcohol regulated in Sweden?

Sweden has a government alcohol monopoly system boilaging for the sale of all alcoholic drinks.

Yeah, so okay, I wasn't wrong about that.

And by the way,

the ones that moved to the United States and took the governor off all died of cirrhosis.

So keep working.

That's my personality.

The system company, you're doing doing what?

You're keeping your people alive.

Sounds fucking hilarious.

Yeah, it is.

Yeah.

I usually ask people like, what surprised you about a place?

You already kind of told me that.

Yeah.

All this stuff, too.

What you regret.

You would have done.

I wish I would have done more.

And

I wish I would have done more research into restaurants.

Oh, why?

Ever since I...

Katie has shown me that when you do research, it pays off.

And you hit a couple spots.

a lot of people who are like, you strike me as a person that goes in a little researched.

Sometimes, and sometimes, so not at all.

Yeah.

They're like, you didn't come here to go hiking in Guatemala.

I'm like, is that bigger?

Like, what?

Yeah.

But then there's times where I've heard stories of you traveling

to Norway and you did some research.

You found a restaurant you wanted to go to.

Yeah, stuff like that.

Sometimes

that's what I wish I would have done.

A museum or something.

Yeah, like the Vasa Museum I wanted to see.

Uh-huh.

Because I was like, I want to see a cool-ass warship.

Yeah, you want to see what's there.

Or if you go with somebody, like they do a little bit you do a little bit smoke and

if I had some if I had like some doinks yeah and some if I was hitting some some pre-rolls yeah and like going or walking around Sweden I could do two weeks there dude I wandered in Amsterdam I was like hi

wandered and just came across some weird museum you see things like what the fuck in some park you don't realize how we were staying outside of like uh amsterdam we were staying like right outside so we take this train and it was like kind of cool because it was like seeing where everyone just actually lived Oh, right.

Yeah, I like that too.

You're like by a big pond and you're just like, this is awesome.

It was fucking great.

Yeah.

Any travel tips?

How expensive was it there?

Hella?

It was a costly trip.

Yeah.

It was a trip where I was like, I'll work.

I'll work extra to go do this.

So if you put some money aside,

it makes it worth it.

Yeah.

You know what I'd say you can do?

Add a show for a gig.

Great.

Maybe we'll do Bayern Bowers in Israel.

Maybe I'm I'm thinking of someone else.

Thank you very much for tuning in, everybody.

I'll talk to you next week.

Asta Maniana, Asta Luego.

I don't know how to say goodbye in Swedish.

So goodbye.

Stockholm, Sweden, Stockholm, Switzerland.

Stockholm, Sweden.

Bye.

Also, by the way, I should tell you this.

Sweden has the hottest women in the world.

And I know it's like almost like hacky to say that, but they're crazy hot.

And they're average.

Since it's hot everywhere, there's an episode of Buck Rogers that was watching on reruns.

Some guy bends metal like that.

And he goes, actually, in my country, I'm considered a weakling.

There are 7-Eleven shopkeepers in Sweden that are hotter than any woman you've ever dated.

It's nuts.

And they have no value there because there's so many hot ones that they can't do anything other than work at a 7-Eleven.

It's just, you just walk along.

You're like, what?

But they think they're normal.

They don't think they're hot.

So they go, what have I got a mole on me?

What's the matter?

I'm like, no, you're a fucking gorgeous fucking face.

I just want to punch a dude to prove my love for you.

All of you.

Anyway, good episode, Dan.

I appreciate it.

Until next week, everybody.

Bye.

Hey, Doe.

Oh, yeah.

All right.

Hey, Doe.

Hey, Do.

All right.

Hey, Doe, everybody.

Yeah, we should do these more.

Okay.

Bye.

Hey, Doe.
