Speaker 4 (01:16):
This is Karen Tilgaraff. This episode was room Tone was taken. Yes,
before we started the recording of this episode.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
We are getting more and more professional. But that's behind
the scenes so you don't have to see it.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
But it is an additional content if you'd like to
pay for it.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yes, on our paywall. We don't do any of that.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
Room Tone paywall. We're doing it now.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, it's it's a series of hush tones. You can
get the entire catalog. And that was the address. We
also the address is room tone, so it's very hard
to find.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah, you have to kind of be a sound person.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
We have a guest today. The guest is currently in
the car. I cannot pretend they're not here like some god. Yeah, oh,
can do you mind sitting there for ten minutes like
a vase? I hate it when people do that. You know,
today's guests for clubs in colleges across the country.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Everyone put your ears together for our friend, and you're soon.
Michae O'Connell.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
Hello, Yeah, thank you for having me.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
I'm so happy to be having you.

Speaker 6 (02:22):
Thank you for not for the for not doing the
ten minute right ramp up.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Hold intro where we just muse about things that are
not interesting, make people wait in silence.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
Yeah, I appreciate it.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Every time someone does that, I can't.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
I just laugh almost in moments I wouldn't have laughed
out loud. I have to make little noises. Is that
me wanting to be the center of attention?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Maybe?

Speaker 5 (02:48):
Possibly?

Speaker 4 (02:48):
So?

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Be it that's the way I was raised.

Speaker 6 (02:51):
You have gotten U into the right racket to be
the center of attention.

Speaker 5 (02:55):
Yes, desperate? Yes, I suppose.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Boy, I don't know if I was lusting for that.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Were you being the center of attention?

Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (03:04):
As a young person, I think I was.

Speaker 6 (03:06):
So loud that I was automatically the center of attention,
not in a good way.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
Right.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Do you have a loud family.

Speaker 5 (03:14):
No, I don't. I had, I'd probably the loudest, but.

Speaker 6 (03:20):
Yeah, they're just they're just pretty average. I would say
volume was like.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Some kind of some hearing damage.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
I don't think.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
So what's your deal.

Speaker 5 (03:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
I just always have had I've always spoken, just overspoken
and just have a weird voice.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
I guess are you It seems like you're conscious of it,
because right now there's a very smooth, soothing and prer tone.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
Oh yes, I prefer that. I'm trying to change my ways.

Speaker 6 (03:52):
I'm trying to become an adult much later than I
should have.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
As a fellow loud person's work.

Speaker 6 (04:00):
It is it really is like it is a great burden.
It is too uh. And then some people just whisper,
which I think is even more mysterious than.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Being loud and more evil.

Speaker 6 (04:10):
Yeah menacing, Yeah you need a menacing whisper?

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Speak up?

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Yeah, I don't know, though, I appreciate a good whisper
because I know a lot of people that do not
know how to whisper. They'll try, but they still use
their vocal chords. Like we're in a movie. I'm whispering
like this, I'll tell you, and then someone the person
tries to whisper.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
And scal it.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Oh, we have to be quiet. Listen, gollum.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
I don't want to talk about that ring right now
with the movie.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
If we're in the dark, we're watching this story unfold.
You're still worried about your jewelry.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
Yeah, they should have some sort of camp to teach
whispering and to teach lowering the voids for the louds Yes.

Speaker 5 (04:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Do you feel like that you're singing is from the
or do you think you're a good singer because you're
naturally loud?

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Do you have any kind of a justification.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
On trial already? I think that I don't know.

Speaker 6 (05:14):
I always enjoyed how I sounded when I was a
little louder, but it was actually really annoying to a
lot of people. So I just kind of didn't acknowledge
the fact that there was a microphone well, and so
that that the microphone enhances your volume sometimes threefold.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Yes, you were the perfect act in those beginning years
of Jimmie Kimmel when I was live and some snaff
I remembered getting excited to see my friend on Jimmy
Kimmel Live, and they the.

Speaker 5 (05:48):
Mic wasn't you weren't my ampton work?

Speaker 2 (05:51):
I think you're the first.

Speaker 6 (05:53):
It was like sick and it was live then, not
to sound like Jerry Lewis.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Yeah it was it was.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
It really was live. And so I was just standing
there like a total idiot.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
But what did you say? You said life?

Speaker 6 (06:04):
Life doesn't always work out, does it? Something like that,
and everyone's like, no, it doesn't. They agreed with me,
and I finally actually had a viable bit.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yes.

Speaker 6 (06:17):
Everything that was like the most relatable thing that I
never said on stage.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Right, everyone was on your side.

Speaker 5 (06:23):
Yeah. And then they fixed it.

Speaker 6 (06:25):
And because they've because of that happened, even though I
think it was because of my amp, they gave me another.
Oh let me go back. So I got to go
back four times.

Speaker 5 (06:35):
That's this mistake I want and then the other one
I have it. Yeah, I guess wow.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
So we want you to have you on the exact
the exact number of times your voice would have been
amplified by atrophones.

Speaker 5 (06:50):
And on TV.

Speaker 6 (06:51):
They can kind of like you know, they can regulate
that ship. Yeah, put in a dive bar that's a
whole different story.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
Yeah, no, it was. That was great.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
It seemed like a horrifying mistake, and within seconds you realized, oh,
this was a real life, terrific moment.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Yeah, what's for the best kind of what live performance
was all about?

Speaker 5 (07:14):
Yeah? Yeah.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
Somebody was there writing an article about it for Stop Smiling.

Speaker 5 (07:18):
Do you remember that magazine?

Speaker 6 (07:20):
No, And so the headline was Mike O'Connell bombs in
a glorious fashion. And I was like, these guys like
hung out with me all day, you know, we were
getting along really well, and then they just I don't
know if that was supposed to draw people into saying
how bad I bombed.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
It was, but you didn't. No, I didn't.

Speaker 6 (07:39):
That's why I was like, well you could you could
report the truth, or you could just try and get hits.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
Well, an outfit called Stop Smiling sounds like they're going
into it with antique comedy dolans.

Speaker 6 (07:52):
Yeah, so I actually fit into their scheme quite well.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
I just remember that first year, before I had done
that show and knew that I was possibly going to
do it, I watched some of my heroes technically bomb.
If you base it on audience reaction, which most stand.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
Up is what you're saying is you got to see
some big time people.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
Just yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Just because of the live for and the setup.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
It was that cat walk, it was the audience was
not forced to even be facing you.

Speaker 6 (08:27):
Yeah, it was a different I mean, I again not
to sound like old time guy, but felt like a
different time.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
It would stand up. The audiences really didn't. They weren't.
They could.

Speaker 6 (08:41):
They were a little more talkative, just amongst themselves, not like,
you know, talking to the comic, right.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Yeah, they just kind of they weren't necessarily there for
the comedy.

Speaker 6 (08:52):
No, it was a different people just it was like
something some obligation they felt they had to their.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Local radio station.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Yeah they won. They won free tickets on a morning
zoo to use these wet Yeah.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
I can't let the zoo down.

Speaker 6 (09:05):
But yeah, but we can talk throughout it, so that's good.

Speaker 5 (09:10):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, there's so many that used to be just expected
you do stand up in some random city and there'd
be a group of people up front with their arms
crossed that were like, well we were at home fighting
my wife.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
And I and then I remembered we had these free tickets.

Speaker 6 (09:29):
Yeah, so now now you can't get them to not engage.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, it's pretty funny development.

Speaker 6 (09:37):
Yeah, I remember back in the day it was like
Ian bagg was the only guy that would talk to
the audience if you remember, because yeah, he was so good.
He was so good at interacting with the crowd that
like nobody else really yeah, he tried.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
It was him, and like Jimmy Brogan, Yeah, there was
like who calmly was like you, sir, what do you
what do you do for a living?

Speaker 5 (10:00):
Like it was the intimate conversation.

Speaker 3 (10:03):
Yes, yes, but if I could summon some question other
than how long have you two been together and what.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Is your job? Maybe I would do crowd work myself.

Speaker 6 (10:14):
I did see a guy recently where just nobody was
responding to them.

Speaker 5 (10:18):
It's like, so what do you do?

Speaker 6 (10:19):
And she's like, I'm not going to tell you. But
it was always so funny when the audience does not
play that game.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
They're like, I won't be mocked at a comedy show.

Speaker 6 (10:30):
I'm not telling you where I live. I'm not telling
you my love life, if I have a lover or what.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Yes, I'm a lonely man who came here for well
constructed word.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
Jokes and to cross my arms.

Speaker 6 (10:43):
Yeah, to grumbly watch you philosophize.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Yeah, that's what I want.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
I want people to want me to be doing rehearsed bits.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
What happened to the bit?

Speaker 1 (10:56):
What happened to the bits?

Speaker 5 (10:57):
I don't know, they got side tracked.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:01):
I always anything you would ask an audience is the
question you don't want to hear on an airplane. And
but I'm guilty of asking the same like with you
and Karen both. I always want to say, have you
been making music? Where when someone asked me if I've
been painting or drawing, immediately it's guilt that I have

(11:24):
for going to art school and kind of just being said.

Speaker 5 (11:26):
I'm squandering my talent.

Speaker 6 (11:28):
Yeah, no, okay, So I don't know why you're coming
at me like exactly free Christmas? You do you like? Well,
I don't ask about you're knitting or whatever you do.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
It does very It's very like a thing I feel
for playing music. It's the thing I'm like I should
do it.

Speaker 4 (11:48):
It's only you have to practice, like, don't pretend if
it's playing the guitar or whatever. And I do just
kind of like look at the guitars just in the
corner presentation.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
But I don't shocking.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yeah, so it's easy to get.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
Remember when you used to stroke my neck. You used
to do it so often.

Speaker 3 (12:09):
But that is Everyone that doesn't do the art you
do is like if I had your ability, I would
do it everything.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
And what is he answered? Have you been doing music? Yes?

Speaker 2 (12:19):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (12:19):
Or no?

Speaker 2 (12:20):
I do want to follow that up with Mike, have
you been making music?

Speaker 5 (12:23):
I have been a I have coming out with an
album in a month. Thank god.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
That's great.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
God that could have backfired.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
A gaggle of red flags is the name of it?

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Nice? Oh, that's funny.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
It will be.

Speaker 6 (12:35):
It's like a kind of depressing but some humor, okay,
dark grim.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
All I enjoy is depressing sad music.

Speaker 5 (12:46):
Yeah, I know. It's one of my It's my favorite genre.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
For sure, for sure, very timely.

Speaker 5 (12:50):
Yeah, it always feels right.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
And where did you record it?

Speaker 6 (12:56):
I just recorded. This guy produced it and we at
some place like fan and eyes.

Speaker 2 (13:02):
This guy in this car is making a curious choice.

Speaker 3 (13:05):
First of all, I'm a little worried about that limited
edition for Fusion.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
It's going to fall off the back of it.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
It is currently running against trees.

Speaker 5 (13:14):
Oh wow, it is not he's not. He did not
gauge the height correctly.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
Now, no, well, and he's trying to get over, but
Honda thought they would pass him.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
He's gonna high centered guy.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
He should have just known better than they get on Highland.
I mean, come.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
On, it's too high.

Speaker 5 (13:31):
Are you new in town, my friend?

Speaker 3 (13:33):
It's it's false advertising. It's not as high as you think.

Speaker 5 (13:38):
Where you going to drop that ship off?

Speaker 3 (13:41):
I would you consider your new album comedic?

Speaker 5 (13:47):
Not really. I mean there are some songs that are
more of a comedic bent, but.

Speaker 4 (13:54):
Not.

Speaker 5 (13:55):
I would say it's.

Speaker 6 (13:56):
More kind of about lost love and some sad some
sad songs about love, some sad songs about you.

Speaker 5 (14:04):
Know, mortality.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
I'm excited to hear it me too.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
Yeah, I'll send it over to you. It's early release.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
I've always been a fan of yours, well, simultaneing simultaneously
being your friend.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Did you know that?

Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yes, as am I.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
But yeah, we have a mutual friend and fandom.

Speaker 5 (14:22):
Mm hmm. That's that's a that's a special thing.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
We we have another friend, Chadwick.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Yes, I wanted to bum everyone out.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
Yes, that's terrible.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
Uh, it's funny. When I first met Chadwick, He had
a picture of a child on his wall and there
was candles all around it, and I was like, oh, no,
that little boy has passed.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
But it was not a past boy.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
It was his big brothers, big sisters, program child friend.

Speaker 4 (14:55):
Yeah, and a shrine to that child, like, oh no,
this boy passed.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Don't make shrines until the person's gone, for fuck's sake.
It's really great. It confuses the shit out of everybody's shrine.

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh it's about that boy thriving and living a normal life.

Speaker 6 (15:10):
Oh, it's one candle for each year he's for each
year of graduation he's got through.

Speaker 5 (15:16):
My condolence more junior senior. That's four candles.

Speaker 2 (15:19):
Wow, so many successes to cry about.

Speaker 5 (15:24):
But I gotta be you gotta be very wary of
doing that. I was.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
I was thinking about him today before I even look
to see that you were our guest today, because I
went through or some old stuff and he had all
these paintings that he gave me, and I realized, oh,
that was another example of like, hey, I will give
you a jump start in painting by giving you these.

(15:50):
Let's collaborate. And they're now twelve years old and.

Speaker 6 (15:56):
He's trying to strong arm you in creativity, and which
always works.

Speaker 5 (16:00):
I've found it.

Speaker 6 (16:00):
If I'm shamed into creating, it's usually the best ship.

Speaker 5 (16:03):
I yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
And but he was our friend that was also holding
our group together. We'd have little hangouts during COVID in
the in the graveyard on the Fairbanks lawn.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Yes, yes, some relation.

Speaker 5 (16:20):
Very distant. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
And and he's left and I feel like I haven't
seen you, and.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
That's ye, that's all right. Life becomes difficult.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
It's complex, complex, So it's good to see you. It's
great to see you, and I will finish those paintings.
You better get off for the friendship of the.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Group, only twelve more years.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
Yes, I think you got to take the long you know,
the long game on this.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, I've I was looking at him.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
Don't rush, I won't.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
Oh god, that's that produces sloppy work.

Speaker 6 (16:56):
And it also means you have to do it.

Speaker 5 (17:00):
Right, which is the quandary.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
I am a Are you a person that uses procrastination
as a.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
As a tool as a tool, I do. I have
a big problem with it. Yeah, it's a.

Speaker 6 (17:20):
I did a show on Sunday and I was like, oh,
I'm going to try this new bit and I just
put it off until the morning that morning, you know, yes,
And I was just like, man, you lie to yourself
like a little bit. Yes, You're just like lying to
your procrastination is just some sort of form of self lying.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
But I've had it work enough, or I had it
work with some college papers where I'm like, oh, I
had such a fire in me based on fear.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
Yeah, that is that is helpful.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
And how where do you find that drive?

Speaker 3 (17:55):
If you have three days to finish, It's like I'm
gonna casually just finish a thing, and it's it.

Speaker 6 (18:02):
Also is kind of like an ego thing because you're like,
I could pull this ship off no problem.

Speaker 5 (18:08):
Yeah, yeah yourself.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
Yeah, you're like, oh you just you're kind of magical
in a certain way, aren't you.

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Yes, I know how to build my own obstacles. I
know for Coomele because I know the secret is.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
I know they're going to be that.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
Because my life is easy.

Speaker 6 (18:26):
The challenge I need some I need some dire moments.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Did you watch Mike the Peewee doc?

Speaker 5 (18:35):
I have not watched it yet. I've heard any lovely
things and he was my favorite pee wee.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, I thought you said Peeb.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
For one second, Peebe pebble Beach, peanut Butter, and then
Peeb and Jada.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
I've seen little clips on TikTok.

Speaker 3 (18:49):
I there's a lot I didn't know and didn't expect.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
I mean, that was someone.

Speaker 3 (18:55):

after the incident out of solidarity and almost got beat
up at the Western Montana Fair.

Well, I my dad.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
I'm always bragging about my dad. But even at the time,
he was like, oh, he didn't do anything wrong. It
was just one of those theaters. That's what men do
at those theaters. And I was like, oh okay, and
the story it just ruined his life.

Nineties, Yeah, it was ninety one or two actually, because
I vividly remember when I heard it.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
I was on a vacation.

Speaker 5 (20:09):
Is that long ago?

Speaker 3 (20:10):
Yeah, My father was trying to take a giant Winnebago
that we borrowed down Lombard Street, that windy he was
trying and like the news came on there. But we
heard it on the radio, and I was terrified because
I love Pee Wee Herman so much.

Speaker 5 (20:29):
But the reason that show was just the only show.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
Yeah, And it made me think you because years ago
you and I were talking about let's make a adult
show that is or a children's show that's winking at adults.

Speaker 5 (20:44):
But yeah, you're.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
The milk bar thing where kids come in for psychiatric
advice and we slide them a milk.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
And then how you been.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
It's like, oh, my parents have been fighting and then
we give them advice for children.

Speaker 6 (21:01):
Which everybody thought that that was a little scandalous.

Speaker 5 (21:05):
I thought, I.

Speaker 6 (21:07):
It's just they're just drinking like soy milk, right, milkshakes.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Yeah, I guess the word bar.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yeah it's ahead of its time.

Speaker 4 (21:18):
You like, in two years they would absolutely make that show, absolutely.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
Right, we were.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
I was thinking more like the candy Man can so
did jerk stripey shirts? Yeah, and you would do music
and we would have kids talk about their feelings.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
I thought it was a great idea.

Speaker 5 (21:33):
I still think it's a gimmy idea.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
You know what it is.

Speaker 4 (21:36):
Those executives fought with their wives and husbands so much,
and they were like, you will not be making a
show about my family, right, and those children will not
be speaking about this family on television.

Speaker 5 (21:46):
That's true intensive.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
Parents, right.

Speaker 3 (21:50):
I wonder how many shows were pitched and then turned
down because the executive.

Speaker 5 (21:56):
Was it's like that, you're just walking into a trap.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Did kill them everything you yielded me last night?

Speaker 5 (22:03):
I will tell them all of your foible.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
I have to tell you, guys.

Speaker 4 (22:07):
There was a TikTok I saw today and it was
one of those Lime scooters, but there was just a
seagull on the handlebars.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
Did you see it.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
I'm worried, like everything, I feel like it isn't because
there'd be no way to accelerate it or for it
to balance.

Speaker 6 (22:22):
But if it was, at least you really went through that,
you thought it out. You're like, okay, this is slightly suspicious.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Close up on the charge level.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
It really does look real though.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
It's so funny, but uh yeah, I'm worried that, like
many things, someone typed in to their phone.

Speaker 5 (22:44):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (22:45):
The one I saw the other day was that kangaroo
was not like what are they called this dog's service?
It was a service kangaroo, right, and it's holding a
ticket and this woman's.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
Like, I get the this is my service kangaroo.

Speaker 6 (22:58):
But they're speaking in some like ailanguage, so it seems
like there's Dutch or something, but it's like even weird.

Speaker 5 (23:04):
They're like, yeah, devil language.

Speaker 6 (23:08):
And then they zoom in on the kangaroo and it's
really cute and you're like, oh, this is too cute.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah, it wasn't. I don't think it was real. No,
it's and you can't tell it's.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Getting better and better. I'm really terrified by it.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
I can't tell you though.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Also I know it wasn't real because kangaroos will kick
the ship out of you the world.

Speaker 5 (23:28):
This is the chill Airport companion.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
And they're like eight feats.

Speaker 6 (23:33):
Oh, I'm not going to punch in the airport. I'm
not an animal.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I get what I'm supposed to be doing here.

Speaker 6 (23:39):
All the humans are flipping out in the airport. Kangaroo
could somehow keep it together.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
Over randomly punch.

Speaker 5 (23:46):
It's not in my nature, it's not.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Who I am.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
It's just wearing little red boxing gloves all the time.

Speaker 5 (23:52):
That was a big thing back in the day.

Speaker 6 (23:55):
Yeah, you would just see that, that image of the
kangaroo with boxing gloves.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Yeah, and sometimes you could pay to fight a kangaroo
and orgins have.

Speaker 5 (24:06):
An underground mattress and you don't have to pay. Yeah,
just find one.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
You just fucking have a beef and you fight them.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
We don't need an audience. This is between you and
me and your little Joey there.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
We're going to go here.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Ah, Yes, I think we should, don't.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
You think we should? For beverages? Yes, and maybe pastry.

Speaker 5 (24:30):
Perhaps we shall.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Let's pastry while we still.

Speaker 5 (24:34):
Can m One day we won't be able to.

Speaker 6 (24:42):
I I think you want to do like a Yeah,
there's they put those things there to keep me away
and it won't work.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Go to hell.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
These people on this street must love it too.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
They even had a commemorative leaf, A leaf I would
call it a wreath, but it's made of leaves.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
For your mistake, worked out, sir.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
Sometimes when I misspeak, I'm just listing ingredients of the
thing I was trying to talk about.

Speaker 5 (25:15):
It's no skill.

Speaker 6 (25:17):
Take it seems like you're kind of bumbling, but it's not.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
It's take a ride after these tiring bumpers. I meant, Car,
I'm trying my best. Mike is someone that I when
I hang around him, I start speaking like him, and
I'm trying not to so far killing it.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I think I'm doing a good job.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
I think you should do it more. Yea, and kind
of take over his part of.

Speaker 6 (25:45):
It makes me feel like I'm some sort of iconic voice.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
Oh dog, oh the demons.

Speaker 5 (25:52):
In the shadows straight from hell.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
That's enough of that. I've possibly the opposite have flattered
you too much.

Speaker 3 (26:03):
Yeah, I do you miss the days a very circus
of joy?

Speaker 5 (26:08):
Yeah? I missed the improv.

Speaker 6 (26:10):
It was always such a blasted what a big show there.
I haven't been back there.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
And how long did you do that?

Speaker 5 (26:17):
Five years or something?

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Yeah, it was like we tricked the improv.

Speaker 5 (26:22):
Into just Rita was so sweet to us.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Yeah, having the same half dozen people once a month
and you you had a regular headlining slot. I don't
think that there's a lot of that happening now.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
No, it seems like all.

Speaker 6 (26:39):
The improv the lineups just seem like, you know, pretty
pretty popular comics.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Yes, yeah, and maybe that's how it should be. Yeah,
maybe we were getting away with sweet.

Speaker 6 (26:51):
Were but it was fun again, It's like the comedy
was just felt like a different thing.

Speaker 5 (26:55):
Then.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
I'm I'm feeling nostalgic because I last night went through
through my neighbor's garage where I used to live with
Nate Craig. I forgot that I gave her. I mean
a lot of it is tax forms and things that I.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Just didn't want to deal with.

Speaker 5 (27:11):
All the memories, Oh.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
The years of like where Karen, you and I both
were like taxes, what are those like?

Speaker 2 (27:18):
We were both needed help.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
I gave the government so much money just for being
an idiot, just.

Speaker 5 (27:25):
Because you're like, okay, here, just keep it keep it down.
This is this enough?

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Do you just stay out of my business. I'll give
you this.

Speaker 5 (27:32):
Yeah, well, you just not send me letters.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
It's so scary.

Speaker 5 (27:36):
Yeah, you overpaid twenty thousand dollars if.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Only Yeah, there was that, but my old neighbor Jenna
had kind of wrapped everything and said from Santa claus
Or she organized everything, this is photos.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
It was really sweet.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
It was like she presented a little time capsule of things.
A lot of them were from my childhood.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
There wasn't that's so nice.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
The newer things were like just ten fifteen years old.
But I've been going through them and again a lot
of it. There was circuits of joy flyers and things
that made me think of you again.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
Didn't realize you were.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
The guest today.

Speaker 6 (28:16):
Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of flyers sitting
around my house.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
Just flyers for shows that nobody attended.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
I love those ones.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
Yeah, really spend like a good week working on flyer
and eight people come.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
That's a good one.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
That's like, you know, that's the passage getting into the comedy.
That's like the dues paid of like plan your flyer
all you want you actually have to be give people.

Speaker 6 (28:45):
There shows where they were like you've got to hand
out flyers. I'm like, well, I don't have to do
the show, so let's just kind of call it a day.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
That's right, let's agree to disagree.

Speaker 5 (28:56):
Yeah, oh you did.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
There was shows where they're like, can you pay for
the room in Chicago?

Speaker 6 (29:02):
When I was starting, Yeah, and it was always the
biggest asshole you know. Uh, comic guy was doing it.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
I know who you're talking about. Let's say hate that.

Speaker 5 (29:19):
He thought our order was amazing.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
Yeah, he did and liked it.

Speaker 5 (29:24):
He's like, Okay, it started out a little bumpy.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
It was not great. Yeah, I didn't like you. You
didn't like me.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
He did turn it around, and then right there in
the last.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
Minute there he didn't like your placement in the string
of words of where espresso was.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
I don't like when that happens.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
When I have that the energy, which I rarely do,
but when I have the energy of help me out here,
I want to get that drink.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
And then he's like, do you mean this? Or it's
like I could talk to someone's little brother anywhere else.
I don't want that energy here with you.

Speaker 5 (29:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
Why did you look up from your Nintendo to scold man.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Stop playing video games at this job?

Speaker 5 (30:02):
Yeah, there was.

Speaker 6 (30:03):
I could tell there was a combative energy between you
two or not on the same page.

Speaker 3 (30:07):
Yes, in the least he recognized it, though, and that's
why he said, well, it's an amazing list of items amazing.

Speaker 6 (30:19):
I've never I've never had four drinks so unique.

Speaker 5 (30:24):
It's so you must be very interesting people.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
Yes, get up to this window.

Speaker 3 (30:29):
It works every time at a restaurant when I ordered
something in the way, it's.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
Like, oh, good choice.

Speaker 5 (30:36):
Actually, the chef would like to come out and me, God,
you ordered just so spect How did.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
You only one who picked it?

Speaker 3 (30:43):
Of all the pages here, of all the dog shit,
you chose the best one.

Speaker 6 (30:51):
Once a week we get someone like you can't understands restauranting, which.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Is why I and the entire staff has learned the
following song, which we will sing.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Now you're the best around.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
And then we get sued by Ralph Machia for some reason.

Speaker 6 (31:11):
Who owns the rights to that song? Yeah, Machio stole
the rights.

Speaker 3 (31:16):
Yeah, Machio owns that Peter Setara song, and I believe
Michael jack.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
That's how he got paid on the publishing rights. Yeah yeah,
he's Uh.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
They're making another one, another movie. Yeah, so much Machio content.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah, another karate kid movie.

Speaker 5 (31:34):
Yeah, with Jackie Chan.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Where are we going with this one?

Speaker 6 (31:37):
I think it has Jade Smith too, Like all the
karate kids are coming together. Oh oh and then that
female karate kid they're going to attack her. It's actually
really fucking brim It's like they just put them in
a cage and they fight each other.

Speaker 5 (31:54):
Jackie Chan Machio.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Have you seen Karate men versus the Child's Girl.

Speaker 6 (32:00):
It seems like a bad idea, but hey, well you
know what would take a big swing over here at
Cobra Khai Institute.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
It's not that hard to watch because Ralph still looks thirteen.

Speaker 5 (32:10):
He does. Yeah, you know, I haven't seen the show.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
Really, Yeah, I would watch it just for nostalgia. I
would not watch the the child hector driven series or
it turned me off immediately.

Speaker 5 (32:26):
But aren't they teaching the kids?

Speaker 2 (32:28):
Yes, but I don't know. There's a little more. It's
not enough karate talk.

Speaker 6 (32:34):
It's just about like it's like the middle aged, like
midlife crisis.

Speaker 5 (32:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Yeah, there's a lot of subplots, a lot of B
and C. Just show me the karate.

Speaker 6 (32:44):
I can't do the flying crane anymore.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
My backers to get a job at the yogurt shop.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
Yeah, too much backstory.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
We don't need to hear it.

Speaker 5 (32:55):
Just karate, just more fucking karate.

Speaker 4 (32:58):
Did you hear that news? Story of about the thirteen
year old girl. A guy tried to abduct her, but
she had been studying jiu jitsu since she was like
little nice.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
She broke his ankle.

Speaker 5 (33:08):
Oh my god, let me beat him.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
To the ground and then broke his ankle like jumped.

Speaker 5 (33:12):
I love that she got him down. But then she's
like this isn't over yet, motherfucker.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Yeah wow what and she was thirteen thirteen years old.

Speaker 6 (33:21):
Oh that's the best we got to get in the
jiu jitsu class.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
See, yeah, how do you don't need movies when you
can read a story like that?

Speaker 2 (33:29):
The may or may not be true, it's true, TikTok Oh, yeah, exactly.
That's how we know that the truth is out there.
TikTok taught me that I have ADHD, and yet.

Speaker 6 (33:42):
I have many maladies. It ends up that I did
not know about.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
I'm in perry menopause. Apparently I have ADHD as well
as well. Everyone around me is a narcissist.

Speaker 5 (33:52):
That's the one that I love.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
I love that one.

Speaker 6 (33:54):
When I remember back in the day, there would be
people would just post that on Facebook, like after they
broke up somebody, and you'd be like, oh, naturally, they're
just narcissist because they because you didn't get along.

Speaker 3 (34:07):
Yeah, yeah, that that word was thrown around a lot. No,
one's looking up the definition.

Speaker 6 (34:12):
And really kind of shadowed sociopath because I think narcissist
is more fun to say.

Speaker 5 (34:17):
Yes, it's mythological in origin. Sociopath just sounds.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Like the knife in your back.

Speaker 5 (34:25):
Yeah, it's too too violent.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Yeah, it's too much word for what it is.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Would you have any my doctor's bag please?

Speaker 2 (34:32):
Yes, yes, thank you. Genuine high grade Portland leathers.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
The finest skins of Portland.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
There can only be a shaving kit and a straight
razer in there.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
And a tiny pearl handled gun.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
Have you been doing a traveling Mike?

Speaker 6 (34:49):
I went to Atlanta. I did a small part on
an HBO show. Oh fun, fun, It was so fun.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
Can I hear about it?

Speaker 5 (34:57):
It's Steve Conrad. I was in that show Patriot.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
You're so good in Patriot.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
If you haven't seen Patriot, yeah it is, I love.

Speaker 2 (35:07):
It's a good time and you were very good.

Speaker 6 (35:09):
He has the most interesting tone. So this is called
DTF Sat Louis.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
So they is this a friend of yours? Have you
known the guy that made Patriot in this show.

Speaker 6 (35:20):
Yeah, I've known him for about twenty I mean fifteen
twenty years. I've been in a lot of his animated things,
and I've been in a.

Speaker 5 (35:29):
Bunch of stuff. I love. Be so kind to me.
And I got to do scenes with Richard Jenkins, you know,
oh wow, Yeah, Brothers.

Speaker 6 (35:36):
And every other movie he's been in a three hundred movies.
So that was like scary. But he's the sweetest guy
and had a blast.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
That's cool.

Speaker 5 (35:45):
Atlanta was nice. I never really spent time there. Oh,
it's the people seem happy.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
It is amazing.

Speaker 6 (35:54):
Yeah, it's just such a different especially living in Hollywood.

Speaker 5 (35:59):
Just going there try pristine.

Speaker 3 (36:03):
Yeah, and you you go in to have a pool hall,
let's say, and let's yes, you know, an old timey
pool hall with your star perhaps a barber shop, and
it's every type of person that you can conjure that
would have their own group in a city like Los

(36:26):
Angeles just playing pool together in harmony. Yeah, girl scouts
and an old timy gangster junkies.

Speaker 2 (36:35):
Yes, and everyone's like, oh, we all just work together.
It's it's a diverse city.

Speaker 6 (36:41):
That's when I noticed I love it to be quite impressive.

Speaker 2 (36:46):
How long were you there?

Speaker 5 (36:47):
I was there for three weeks. Oh that's perfect.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
And on Patriots? Sorry, but how many seasons has it been? Okay?

Speaker 5 (36:55):
And then they got canceled.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
It was such a good show.

Speaker 6 (36:59):
Yes, he's got such way with humor and malaise.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Yes, yeah, so good. But also didn't love the title Patriot.

Speaker 5 (37:12):
It just confused me because you thought it was Mel Gibson's.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
The Patriot, and that's all I'm ever looking. So if
you can't hit that, if you.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
Steal that name from Mel Gibson, do you dare?

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Where are these hillside abb muscles?

Speaker 1 (37:29):
The Patriot?

Speaker 4 (37:30):
That sounds like I remember that movie coming out. I'm like, well,
I don't want to do homework, so I'm not going
to go see that movie.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
Yes, I probably already had to learn this this ridiculous lesson.

Speaker 5 (37:40):
Yes at some point.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
Oh, you're right, that is why I didn't see Napoleon, right.

Speaker 5 (37:45):
Napoleon was a tough one man. It was rough.

Speaker 6 (37:47):
It was like a real grind to get through that
fucking movie.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
No offense, Scott, Yes, and our friend Joaquin.

Speaker 4 (37:57):
Yeah, I tried to watch it on a plane. It
should have been perfect.

Speaker 6 (38:00):
Yeah, you should and it's like three hours, so you
just like you start it and then you're on the
ground when it's over.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
It just was like, I think everyone should either fake
a British accent in a historical drama or not.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
But these days where.

Speaker 4 (38:16):
It's like one guy's kind of talking like Liz, and
then and then two people are actually amazing British actors,
and it's just like, come on.

Speaker 6 (38:24):
I do think it's like a Game of Thrones. You know,
it's in nowhere land, but they're just spouting British.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
It makes it legit, Yes, exactly, you're like a time
and place you're not.

Speaker 5 (38:34):
Gonna if everyone's just talking American.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
It was curious though. Also the show that did that
was I think it was called The Great.

Speaker 5 (38:48):
Elizabeth Great.

Speaker 3 (38:49):
Yeah, but I loved all the Russian no matter who
they were, they just had English accents and you kind
of suspend your I guess that's okay.

Speaker 6 (38:57):
There was that uh, what was it Hunt for Red
October where they start speaking Russian and then they turned
the camera and then everyone's just speaking English.

Speaker 5 (39:07):
Really yeah, it's really it actually works for some reason.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
Yea turn the camera as if to say like and no, that's.

Speaker 6 (39:14):
Just like no, they just like shift the camera and
then you know, then they're all speaking.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
Then Sean Connery is like, what you're doing? You know what?

Speaker 1 (39:25):
We've gone through the portal and.

Speaker 5 (39:26):
Now now he could just be Scottish again.

Speaker 3 (39:29):
Always Wow, they put they put the language lands on
the camera.

Speaker 5 (39:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (39:34):
I don't know how they did. It's somehow successful. I've
never seen it done. I've never seen it tried again.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
I guess it makes more sense than an American actor
doing a Russian accent speaking in English to tell.

Speaker 5 (39:48):
A story of Russia.

Speaker 6 (39:50):
And then Russian accents kind of can can get a
little joky sometimes, Yes, Gary Oldman, Uh yeah, of course.
One he was a little jokey John Malkovich in that
Card Game movie. Oh yeah, just so he's like one
hundred and fifty Russian accent. Russians are like, what's he
talking about?

Speaker 2 (40:11):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (40:12):
I love when he just goes all the way for
it and it's he's like this is I say what
Russian sounds like?

Speaker 1 (40:19):
Okay, do it go.

Speaker 5 (40:22):
It's probably hard to give him a bunch of notes.

Speaker 2 (40:25):
Oh can you imagine a little.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
Scary Okay, John, this time we're going to take it
again and.

Speaker 1 (40:35):
Dighead Yep.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
They always do it, you know today, And I know.

Speaker 3 (40:43):
Our hearts shouldn't go out to people driving around in
the cyber trucks, but.

Speaker 1 (40:48):
There is, but there is, But you're me.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
This guy went above and beyond.

Speaker 3 (40:54):
And I was on the way to your house behind
him on the freeway, and it said, I of not
making a political statement. I'm just kind of a nerdy
guy who likes fast trucks that drive on their own.

(41:14):
It was, it was I happened to be close behind.
But he was so self deprecating. It's like, I'm not
a tough guy. I have soft hands, I like art,
I take care of animals. I'm not doing as well
as I Yeah, I know it just I'm not doing

(41:34):
it justice. So it's but it actually I got emotional
reading it because he said this was no he made
the sticker and it was it was all just helvetica
in the back of the and he put a little
cheap logo on it.

Speaker 2 (41:52):
So he was doing everything he could. But he also
was saying.

Speaker 3 (41:56):
Yes, and he said, punch nazis. I don't like he
everything you want to hear. And he said, I know
a lot of people are like I don't care. I
hate you anyway. But he was saying I was doing
well financially and got one of these, and now I'm

(42:16):
not doing as well, so I can't afford to just
get rid of it. And I don't know, I liked
what he said. Again, I'm not doing it justice, but
it's kind of the least someone can do is hate
someone for a car they have and assume all the
things which I do every day. And this guy did

(42:38):
the best job so far that I've seen of like,
please let me teach you about myself before you honk
and throw a clown pie at me.

Speaker 5 (42:49):
Are people still doing that?

Speaker 2 (42:51):
I think so?

Speaker 5 (42:51):
Yes.

Speaker 3 (42:52):
I mean when I saw it, I'm like, oh, what's
this asshole left to say? And there was a well
written Again.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
I always think people keying cars and shit like that.
It's just it's just a real twelve year old move.
I don't know. Yeah, there's got to be a better
way to fight the Yeah, the issue you have.

Speaker 4 (43:08):
Also, it's it's such an indirect way of fighting anything
because it's all over. So it's like the car has
been bought, the money has been taken.

Speaker 5 (43:17):
Yeah, right, it's like.

Speaker 6 (43:18):
A family's car, and you know what I mean, it's
just kind of over.

Speaker 1 (43:21):
Yeah, it's not like that action is then.

Speaker 4 (43:23):
I mean, like I have to say I was much
quicker because I was driving Tesla to get rid of it,
because of course you don't want to be associated. But yeah,
there's like can you do that?

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Is that? How many payments do you have left?

Speaker 6 (43:36):
Like there's so many considerations, some practical things.

Speaker 3 (43:39):
Yeah, that was the thing that in his little speech
like a lot of us, I'm not doing as well
as I was when I bought this thing.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
Six years ago or whatever. I don't know it was.

Speaker 3 (43:50):
It was it's like, oh, man, I feel I like
that guy that it did that.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
But you know, still it's an ugly car that raccoons
want to break in. That being said, it is a
dumpster shame to vehicle.

Speaker 4 (44:09):
I uh, cyber truck was driving toward me on the
street one day and I immediately flipped it off without thinking.

Speaker 1 (44:16):
And I was driving in Tesla.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Oh that's so funny.

Speaker 6 (44:19):
This is the weirdest critical fighting brother the Civil War,
the Tesla Civil War.

Speaker 1 (44:25):
It just came out. It was just a weird kind
of like God and people.

Speaker 4 (44:30):
But I'm sure it was like after some fucking some
story about an ice raid or something.

Speaker 1 (44:35):
I'm just like, what the fuck?

Speaker 6 (44:37):
Yeah, I think they like the matchbox car version of
the cyber truck looks cooler than the real one, Like
the real one looks so big and just ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (44:46):
Oh there's a what is the match box now?

Speaker 5 (44:49):
Just like I think a little version.

Speaker 6 (44:50):
Oh yeah, like oh, this is like a from a
sci fi movie or something, but in real life you're
like abrasive.

Speaker 4 (44:57):
Yeah, it's like a bad suv, the worst suv.

Speaker 6 (45:01):
Yeah, and they like like whatever the amount something can
weigh on the street. They like, made it weigh that
just to prove some weird, fucked up point.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
Oh this guy, we're being very nice. You knew exactly
how you're in a tough street. He can't believe someone's
letting him do this. Man, it's backing.

Speaker 5 (45:20):
You're on your own on Melrose.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
Not only to he wave, he gave you a piece,
Is that true? Yes, I'm going to get two big.

Speaker 4 (45:29):
Fingers, gonna say thank you for being a bald hot man.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
I'll always let you merge, sir.

Speaker 5 (45:36):
I have very specific uh people I will let merge.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
Like everyone else in Hollywood, I've insane beauty standards, and
you fit all of them.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
Yeah, and I don't need to see you below the
shoulders to decide that.

Speaker 1 (45:49):
Following down the street.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
But wait, future husband, what about our love makeing?

Speaker 5 (45:53):
Yes, we know so well in traffic and you promised me,
oh life, how we would gel, not.

Speaker 1 (46:04):
Just in my fantasy, my merging.

Speaker 4 (46:08):
There was a guy who was driving along here and
a guy tried to cut across and I was going
like it was stop traffic over there, but I was
going like thirty and he was like trying to peek
out to cut in front of everybody, and I had
to slam on my brakes and then he was like
he his window was down. He goes, you might want
to slow down, and I screamed, fuck you.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
I've told the story.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
I've told the story before, but I've never screamed that
phrase as.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
Loud as I did to that guy.

Speaker 4 (46:35):
He was like a blonde guy that looked like he
worked at Paramount or something.

Speaker 6 (46:39):
He might want to He's just like, you know what,
get mad at me before you get all condescended, rather
yell at me and not fucking just try and shame
me with your bitchy tone.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
Yes exactly, I'm gonna he emotionally manipulated me into being
the weaker one in the exchange, even he was doing them.

Speaker 5 (46:59):
So that's you get. That's when you get the loud
fuck you is the condescension. Will not stand.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
You might want to slow down. I'll kill you and
all of the members of your family.

Speaker 5 (47:12):
Not to be trifled with.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
Oh I we I think where are we going to
drive by your home?

Speaker 5 (47:21):
Ah? Yes?

Speaker 2 (47:21):
Oh boy, that you don't get it? Get out? Is
that gonna feel weird?

Speaker 5 (47:26):
I will become nauseous?

Speaker 1 (47:30):
Uh oh wait, where are we dropping you off?

Speaker 5 (47:34):
Once we're done, you can just drop me in my hovel.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
Okay, yeah, the hovel is coming up.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
I remembered from twenty fourteen, Mike, which was the last
time you were on this podcast.

Speaker 5 (47:45):
Chris says, yeah, and I went to the airport.

Speaker 6 (47:48):
That was the sweetest thing anybody's ever done for me
in La. Yes, we had it was a podcast like
double you know, like double Joy.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
Yes, that was our whole How are.

Speaker 5 (47:59):
We going to get it?

Speaker 6 (48:00):
I think after you know, five years in La, no
one drives you to the airport anymore.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
No, oh no, no, no, you just have to know.
I'm buying a flight and I'm setting aside one hundred dollars.

Speaker 5 (48:12):
I will pay as much for the uber as I
will for the flight.

Speaker 3 (48:18):
I did this thing last time where I arrived at LAX,
and I'm like, I'm going to be really smart and
walk off site and get an uber on Century Boulevard
somewhere by a hotel. I'll I put on a disguise
and I only had a backpack, and I'll be damned
if every block I walked away from LAX it went

(48:40):
up ten dollars.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
It really Oh really.

Speaker 6 (48:43):
Yes, I just like because they know your racket there, Yeah,
I guess, or they're like, oh, let's these hotel people.

Speaker 5 (48:52):
They'll do anything, they'll do anything. I'm desperate.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
They are.

Speaker 6 (48:56):
They're staying at an airport hotel, the least phone airport,
at least fun hotel in the world.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
Yeah, they they they knew, and I don't stay at
an airport hotel.

Speaker 5 (49:06):
It's always good. Seem like a foreign thing to oh.

Speaker 3 (49:11):
I think when people use like an app, like I've
had friends that said, is this a nice part of town, I'm.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Like you, you you.

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Chose the cheapest deal and you're right by the airport.

Speaker 6 (49:23):
You're funny because right up here on the right is
a Hollywood it's called the Hollywood Historic Hotel, And imagine
somebody and there's always a lot of tourists there and
they're just they just see that.

Speaker 5 (49:35):
Name and they're like, well, well, well it.

Speaker 6 (49:38):
Must be in the heart of Hollywood, and it's like, no,
it's near Western.

Speaker 5 (49:45):
That's why you see a lot.

Speaker 6 (49:46):
You've seen many Dutch tourists and like people really just
walking around being like, how do I get to the
Hollywood This one coming up on the right, Yeah, yeah, Wilton,
it does.

Speaker 2 (49:57):
I'm sure it photographs well.

Speaker 6 (49:59):
And there's one downtown that says it's like a Hollywood
Hollywood Hotel and you're.

Speaker 5 (50:04):
Like, dude, you just lie to these people. People they
have no idea, you know, Yeah, that is.

Speaker 6 (50:09):
It's terrible, especially if you end up downtown like yeah, die,
I risk.

Speaker 4 (50:14):
Or there's those hotels that are near Hollywood Boulevard that
are so wildly bad and it's like, oh, yeah, how
are you like even justifying this because clearly there's enough work.
There's like the business is here, so make your hotel nicer.
But they're like, oh my god, the worst place it
right here?

Speaker 3 (50:31):
Oh yeah it is, yes, I like, yeah, I think
that that probably has been there a long time.

Speaker 5 (50:37):
You lie, you lie.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
You remind me of the time I accidentally did the
improvn Hollywood, Florida.

Speaker 6 (50:48):
But yeah, I think if I couldn't lie like that
such a grand scale to people who really are easily manipulated.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
Well, you can walk down to the I think this
is a car.

Speaker 5 (51:00):
There's a great car wash.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
Don't be afraid to walk across the street to the
apartment building.

Speaker 5 (51:04):
It's probably the worst marijuana dispensary right up here in
the world.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
Oh and that's called the Melrose Place Apartments.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Yeah, there's a lot of hoodwinking going on.

Speaker 6 (51:14):
Well, that's where all the apartments in LA and Hollywood are.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
They're always named like, yeah, the Crown, the whatever that
one was.

Speaker 6 (51:21):
It's so funny, like they're trying to fancify it by
naming it.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
The Classy Lady.

Speaker 4 (51:29):
Don't stay there, come on google it.

Speaker 5 (51:33):
The Classy Lady is the crack House.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Actually it was ironic.

Speaker 5 (51:39):
Yeah, it's so funny. It's such a trend. Why do
you need to name your place the Dylan.

Speaker 4 (51:48):
Well, we went to see the Bob Dylan movie with
Timmy Timothy Shalom with Timmy and it was a family plan.
So it was my cousin Stevie, my aunt Jean, his wife,
and two girls. But it was so crowded that everyone
was split up, and so I was late, of course,

(52:11):
as I always am, and my niece Sophie was in
the last row, in the last seat. But I didn't
know that this movie theater, like the one we were in,
was really small, so it didn't have an aisle stairs
on both sides. It just had the stairs on the
one side, and so I knew it was the last row,
but I didn't know what the seat numbers were, so

(52:32):
I had just in complete pitch darkness, had to walk
down this aisle waiting for my family to recognize me
to tell me to sit down, and I just slowly
did it, and then halfway and I'm like, this is
the worst plan.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
And then halfway down, I was like I just.

Speaker 4 (52:48):
Leaned over and I was like Sophie and some girls
like no, and so I have to keep going straight.
I don't know where I'm going, and I'm just like
taking really tiny steps and then I just eventually walk
into the wall and then Sophie is directly beneath me
because she's in the last seat and she starts laughing.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
She goes, you just walked into the wall, and I'm
like you, thanks for helping me. And it was like super.

Speaker 4 (53:14):
Quiet family, but it was a hospital scene in this movie,
so it's dead quiet and very dark. So I sit
down and then we start laughing, and we basically laughed
through the rest of this movie because it was so
funny that just memory just came to me.

Speaker 5 (53:31):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 3 (53:33):
I mean, you really gotta let your eyes adjust, you
gotta sit in the back like a weirdo.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
That's why you can't be late to movies.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
It's a sign seating, right, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
Yeah, So it's just it was a sign seating and
every one of my family's broken up, so there were
people everywhere, and it was super dark in there, and
apparently my Aunt Jean when they were walking in, somebody
had their like, because they're like lazy boy recliner seats,
and so somebody had their recliner thing up with their
feet up, and my Aunt Jean took a step like
she was going upstairs and stepped.

Speaker 1 (54:03):
Up onto someone's rook lincy. It was mayhem. It was
the craziest thing.

Speaker 6 (54:08):
Yeah, it's just once they got rid of random seating.

Speaker 5 (54:11):
I mean, what, why why did they do that? Yes?

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Yeah, and then such.

Speaker 6 (54:17):
Erratic random seating was the glory that those are the
glory days.

Speaker 3 (54:21):
Someone will come later than you. If you do sit
no one's sitting here, it'll be fine. And that's the
word it's feeling when someone's like, you're sitting in my seat,
yes the rules, get up and move over to For
God's sake, I was only pretending to like Bob Dylan's
music in the first place, so I don't seem.

Speaker 6 (54:41):
I just feel like, it's not like, you know, when
somebody's sitting in your seat in a plane. On a plane,
that's I get that right, let's switch.

Speaker 4 (54:49):
But come in a movie theater, it's always people who
are like, I need to put my legs straight from
my thing.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
It's always that.

Speaker 5 (54:57):
For my malad.

Speaker 1 (55:00):
Constant story about my knee. Yeah, I won't shut up.

Speaker 5 (55:03):
Would you like me to tell you the tale.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Of my name? My freshman year of college.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
They you know, I was in the dorms with a
stranger who was a sweet kid.

Speaker 2 (55:15):
But he had nothing but CDs of Bob Dylan.

Speaker 3 (55:20):
And I'm not I'm not exaggerating. He only had Bob
Dylan music. I think it was all Bob Dylan and
then won the album, which I'm like, can we please
listen to the again because I name, I got something
I need to.

Speaker 2 (55:41):
I had my chance, I think to be a Dylan fan.

Speaker 5 (55:45):
But it was you were sabotaged. I know I'm wrong.
I know I'm wrong.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
I'm supposed to there's something wrong with me.

Speaker 6 (55:53):
It's attached to a deep memory, yes, or I just
when I hear it.

Speaker 2 (55:57):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (55:59):
What other people are hearing, Like, how do you prove
that when you see the color green it's the same
color other people see.

Speaker 2 (56:05):
It's that kind of thing.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
You'll never know. I don't know, you could never figure
that out.

Speaker 3 (56:09):
But so I haven't seen the I'm still mad at
Timmy for the Wonka movie.

Speaker 1 (56:14):
Really I shouldn't be, but it was that bad.

Speaker 5 (56:17):
I did not enjoy it. It was not.

Speaker 6 (56:21):
It's just lacked of the original, which I mean, it's
how do you how do you replicate it four years
later with it?

Speaker 2 (56:30):
Well, they didn't even replicate the Johnny Depp one. I'm like,
why they tried?

Speaker 5 (56:35):
They tried to be a little grim with that one.
I remember he's like an abused child crazy.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
No, none of my business. I just want chocolate story.

Speaker 6 (56:44):
Can we can we stick to the chocolate? Can we
stick to him drowning children and chocolate?

Speaker 5 (56:49):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (56:49):
I have my own problems.

Speaker 4 (56:50):
Please, I don't want backstory about its medical condition.

Speaker 5 (56:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (56:55):
And Johnny Depp played it so insane, too wild.

Speaker 5 (56:58):
They're just seemed charming. Yes.

Speaker 2 (57:00):
Have you seen the You probably haven't.

Speaker 3 (57:04):
There's DVD extras for the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie,
which is the original, right, Yes, of all those kids
grown up, like Mike TV who seems like a bossy,
mean guy. And and the guy that played Charlie is
such a sweet man.

Speaker 5 (57:25):
They followed their character.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
Yes, and they all talk about what it was like.

Speaker 3 (57:30):
And Augustus Klomp was an actual kid from Austria that
didn't speak English.

Speaker 5 (57:36):
Like a lot of the little people one that.

Speaker 3 (57:40):
She is the only one still blue. She's the only
child actor that kept acting. She's she was like, she
was my favorite.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
Uh Uka, she was that fucking song.

Speaker 5 (57:58):
Where are we? I think you've unlocked a new part
of l a weird.

Speaker 1 (58:04):
We have jobs at an old hospital.

Speaker 5 (58:06):
We have I done?

Speaker 3 (58:07):
No, we're just oh no wait, we are at the
Willie Walker's chocolate factory.

Speaker 2 (58:13):
How do we get out of here?

Speaker 1 (58:14):
What have we done?

Speaker 2 (58:15):
This is interesting?

Speaker 3 (58:17):
Yeah, guns drawn, Yeah, it is curious that they they
don't give you a plan B at this parking lot.

Speaker 1 (58:24):
It is just plane all the way.

Speaker 2 (58:27):
Get out and the public.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
Yeah, it's in there. Where are we is this scientology?

Speaker 5 (58:35):
It's got to be something.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
Oh God, suspicious that whatever.

Speaker 5 (58:38):
Let's go in and take a stress test. I give up.

Speaker 1 (58:42):
I do have a bad personality and I need a
new one.

Speaker 5 (58:44):
You need you need your meter?

Speaker 2 (58:47):
Yeah, read every outburst I have. It feels like it's
the ghost of a volcano dwelling.

Speaker 5 (58:54):
Alien that's building, intimidating whatever. Whatever they're doing in there,
they're up to no good.

Speaker 4 (59:01):
It's weird. It feels army Barracks style. Yes, visitors register
at the nurses station. I was right about the hospital.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Park Okay, Okay, that's weird.

Speaker 1 (59:12):
I probably saw it.

Speaker 5 (59:13):
Sounds like a poorly accessible hospital.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
Let me stay away.

Speaker 2 (59:18):
We should get out and commit ourselves. I have maladies, I.

Speaker 3 (59:24):
Have mental issues, and I found parking most importantly.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Well, we got out of that mess.

Speaker 6 (59:31):
I mean, you learned something new about the city almost
every day.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
Oh, it's Kingsley manor the Retirement.

Speaker 6 (59:42):
See Kingsley manor another one where it's like, why are
you guys trying to fancify that ship?

Speaker 4 (59:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (59:47):
I think it is like a care facility. Yeah, okay,
ironic that I don't care.

Speaker 4 (59:59):
M he doesn't care your facility?

Speaker 2 (01:00:06):
I do you know?

Speaker 5 (01:00:08):
I care? Sometimes you're deeply invested in this facility.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
Yes, that's what they should have called it. How are
your beanie babies doing? Baby?

Speaker 6 (01:00:19):
They're cabbage Patch kids, So watch your fucking.

Speaker 2 (01:00:23):
I forget about the collectibles.

Yeah, that's a big, big day for a cabbage patch kid.
Hasn't grown an inch?

Speaker 2 (01:00:46):
Signature still on the ass.

Speaker 5 (01:00:48):
Oh yeah, he still got it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
That's how you know it's a real dated baby.

Speaker 5 (01:00:52):
Five.

Speaker 6 (01:00:53):
So I'd tell him to a collector, but he smoked
too many joints.

Speaker 5 (01:01:00):
He smells like joints. Child smells like fucking joints.

Speaker 6 (01:01:07):
But the when they're doing well, I got so many
in the man because people just thought it was funny
to send them to like twelve and I'm.

Speaker 5 (01:01:14):
Just like, yeah, that's too many.

Speaker 6 (01:01:15):
Man, that's like you just hope, uh the cops don't
show up one day.

Speaker 5 (01:01:21):
Yeah, there's what's this guy up to?

Speaker 3 (01:01:23):
Yeah, there's nothing else questionable in your place. But there
is a wicker basket of babies.

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
It's harding.

Speaker 5 (01:01:31):
And I have all their birth certificates, and it's like.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
What's this kind of Oh they have paperwork, Yeah they do,
Yeah they do.

Speaker 5 (01:01:39):
That's great.

Speaker 6 (01:01:39):
You could even change their name if you send it
in legally, Yeah, legally.

Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
Usually Yeah, that's that's like a black I.

Speaker 6 (01:01:47):
Don't even know if the cabbage Patch is still a thing.
Like if you sent in your the birth certificated.

Speaker 1 (01:01:54):
Wanted to name, Oh, is there a secretary to receive you?

Speaker 6 (01:01:58):
Yeah, if there's a notary? Is there a notary there too?
You know, make it official valid?

Speaker 1 (01:02:04):
Where's my winnings?

Speaker 5 (01:02:04):
That's why I wanted to change one one's name to
sweep Steaks. But I can't. I can't seem to find
the off the cabbage Patch office.

Speaker 4 (01:02:12):
No one will respond to my faxes or my certainly
written letters.

Speaker 5 (01:02:17):
It's so funny.

Speaker 3 (01:02:19):
The anxiety of accidentally calling them beanie babies was so
real that I started, which great, and then I backed
it up with the wrong name.

Speaker 1 (01:02:31):
O perfect.

Speaker 2 (01:02:32):
So offensive.

Speaker 6 (01:02:33):
It's like if you had a child and I said,
how's your donkey? It's just offensive, it's just horrible.

Speaker 3 (01:02:42):
I yeah, last night I went and met Nate Craig's
little donkey and it was the cutest baby ever.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
Yeah, baby donkey, a perfect little baby that I want. Yeah,
boy or girl, a little boy that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
It's so fun to remember that you can meet a
brand new person and then they'll be like, I can
see through a bullshit and you're okay, and then I
like it.

Speaker 2 (01:03:07):
Put a It just made me.

Speaker 5 (01:03:09):
Feel you could tell it's not a corrupt baby.

Speaker 2 (01:03:10):
No, exactly.

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
You can tell that baby is not up to no good.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
Baby's running for senate.

Speaker 5 (01:03:17):
This maybe is legit. Yeah, I would probably be.

Speaker 2 (01:03:22):
Rich, exactly, clean record, good.

Speaker 3 (01:03:24):
Baby, nice, healthy, friendly to earth and brand new brand.
Well a few months it's hard not yet walking.

Speaker 5 (01:03:36):
Uh so there's that.

Speaker 6 (01:03:38):
It's not it's not ideal, but it's still a pretty
decent baby.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Yeah, technically it's a toddler walking.

Speaker 5 (01:03:46):
I think a toddler is like two or three, right,
they're trying.

Speaker 2 (01:03:49):
They're trying, not even close to toddler. So it's still
a baby.

Speaker 3 (01:03:52):
It's just a baby that can make expressions and focus
on with eye.

Speaker 4 (01:03:56):
Contacts on like within six months babes yes something.

Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
Or maybe even close to a year.

Speaker 3 (01:04:04):
I know enough time has passed that I was feeling guilty.

Speaker 5 (01:04:08):
You trusted this baby a lot for not knowing a
lot about it.

Speaker 3 (01:04:10):
Would I would let this baby give me financial advice?

Speaker 2 (01:04:16):
I would, Yes, I'd give.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
He has that look in his eye like he just
gets it.

Speaker 6 (01:04:20):
Oh yeah, he just seems more responsible to you in
some way.

Speaker 3 (01:04:25):
Well, I just like when a baby like looks at
you and they're like, I haven't made my decision yet,
and they're looking on youttle confused and I and if
you don't respond to that with panic, like I gotta
make this baby like me. So many people are like,
let me hold it. Why isn't it liking me?

Speaker 6 (01:04:40):
Oh, my niece just did not like me at the
beginning when I first met her.

Speaker 2 (01:04:44):
But now you're just crying.

Speaker 5 (01:04:46):
Like, oh no, we got along grave.

Speaker 6 (01:04:47):
But it was just so funny that like I seemed
like a demon to this sweet little girl.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
Is it your brother's kid?

Speaker 5 (01:04:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:04:58):
Enough unity, Yeah, that's you're one of the many. It's
my favorite hobby to meet of a friend, especially comedian
friends sibling where clearly there's.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
A lot of uncles. Childless comedian and uncles.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
It's so fun.

Speaker 5 (01:05:19):
Yeah, I know, it's the meeting. I get to play
video games with them, so fun.

Speaker 2 (01:05:26):
Where are they all at?

Speaker 5 (01:05:29):
Yeah? Sweet?

Speaker 4 (01:05:32):
My niece is graduating high school this week, and it
is very upsetting and shocking.

Speaker 5 (01:05:38):
You're like, you don't really have to graduate.

Speaker 4 (01:05:40):
You know, you can state, you can state, you can
go back to being eight years old when you had
that little bob and you were the perfect.

Speaker 5 (01:05:46):
So she's going to college the next year.

Speaker 1 (01:05:48):
Yeah, isn't that crazy? I mean it's yeah, I remember.

Speaker 5 (01:05:51):
All my friends.

Speaker 6 (01:05:52):
It's just so funny how time goes and you know, like, well,
my friends had babies in early two thousands.

Speaker 5 (01:05:58):
Now they're all like in China or something.

Speaker 6 (01:06:03):
You know what, it's not it's not really fair that
you have a better life than me.

Speaker 5 (01:06:09):
Down shift, I changed your diaper and you're so cocky
with this awesome life.

Speaker 3 (01:06:15):
Yeah, my diaper changing abilities are the golden touch for success.

Speaker 2 (01:06:21):
Later in life.

Speaker 5 (01:06:22):
Yeah, No, I was.

Speaker 6 (01:06:23):
I was very important babysitter, crucial in those early days. Yeah,
they need a sense of humor because the parents are humorless.
You don't want a humorless baby.

Speaker 3 (01:06:38):
When I worked at a child care facility because it
was next door to the house I lived in and
the owner was my friend's mother. I it was a
law in Montana that I don't know if it still is,
but a man is not allowed to change a baby's diaper.

Speaker 2 (01:06:54):
And I was like, well, this is terrific.

Speaker 5 (01:06:56):
I love.

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
Yeah, would you.

Speaker 5 (01:07:01):
Make it illegal for men to work exactly?

Speaker 3 (01:07:05):
The only thing I'm allowed to do is shoot them
with a hose and hand the wet clothing of the
parents when they Yeah, it was I that.

Speaker 5 (01:07:13):
Put an amount of trust in just any random woman.

Speaker 6 (01:07:18):
Yeah, that's because you could really be You could be either,
you could be evil.

Speaker 5 (01:07:22):
In both sexes. I feel. I've seen it. Yeah, I
know many.

Speaker 3 (01:07:27):
Versions right by the studio, so you can just walk
over audition for the growth scripts over the wall.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
It's a it's a child bar selling.

Speaker 5 (01:07:40):
It's a milk bar. Don't there's no alcohol.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
Have a security guard this guy again.

Speaker 5 (01:07:47):
Here we go with the milk bar.

Speaker 2 (01:07:49):
They will not be drinking alcohol, I assure you.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
I wonder if they were comparing it to clockwork orange that.

Speaker 5 (01:07:57):
Yes, the milk bar.

Speaker 1 (01:07:59):
This seems wrong.

Speaker 6 (01:08:00):
Yeah, you know what we don't need, like guys with
cod pieces, please giving advice.

Speaker 5 (01:08:07):
It's not this light but the next life. Thank you, yes,

It's been so long because yes, over ten years, unbelievably,
it's crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Oh and it's.

Speaker 5 (01:08:24):
Been right here behind this truck is fine.

Speaker 3 (01:08:27):
Oh and I'm sorry I never painted your fireplace dog curious.

Speaker 5 (01:08:32):
I never.

Speaker 3 (01:08:33):
He has an ornate white fireplace mantle frame. And it
was like, what about a little color and some paint
on this?

Speaker 2 (01:08:40):
And I'm like, yep, I'm going to do it.

Speaker 5 (01:08:41):
Another scheme falls fallen through.

Speaker 4 (01:08:44):
Yes, but wasn't it COVID that really took that away
from both of you?

Speaker 5 (01:08:48):
We can blame it on that, we can't.

Speaker 4 (01:08:50):
Let's use code button on a nice COVID button on
this podcast.

Speaker 3 (01:08:54):
This is where you can find out. I knew about
it coming three years prior. And oh wow, what happened
with the apartment where they've totally covered the window with
bricks like a cartoon.

Speaker 6 (01:09:07):
Oh, there's a man that there's just insane people that
live in that building.

Speaker 3 (01:09:11):
Really holy shit, But that's real brick, right, it's.

Speaker 2 (01:09:19):
We have to know. Is this like the family from
the burbs?

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
Yeah, it's pretty much.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
Wow, they own the whole house.

Speaker 6 (01:09:27):
Yeah, and they just have they have like seventeen dilapidated
cars in the back. And oh, the guy just screams.

Speaker 5 (01:09:35):
All the time.

Speaker 6 (01:09:35):
And when he goes out and his wife, he just
pulls his car up and then he just lays on
the horn and for five minutes until his wife comes out.
It's the most it's the worst relationship thing I've ever said.
It's like her, the fuck you might as well be screaming.

Speaker 3 (01:09:55):
Yeah, there's no there's nothing good happening. If you've bricked
up a window.

Speaker 1 (01:10:00):
A front facing window.

Speaker 5 (01:10:02):
Yeah, that's a murder room. Obviously, it's a dexter room.

Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
It's very dexterously.

Speaker 2 (01:10:09):
At the end of every episode, we like to solve a.

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
Small is the bodies in there?

Speaker 5 (01:10:17):
Obviously we could just you know, notify the police.

Speaker 3 (01:10:20):
Right, you're not throwing me off of that American flag?
Pretty wrapped up and Patriotic business.

Speaker 5 (01:10:29):
The Patriotism is a cover.

Speaker 2 (01:10:31):
Well, go well figure this out, Mike.

Speaker 1 (01:10:33):
And also, what's the name of your album?

Speaker 6 (01:10:35):
Yeah, the Gaggle of Red Flags will be out in
like about a month ago.

Speaker 4 (01:10:39):
I love it, michael'connell, Gaggle of Red Flags. It's sad,
potentially funny, but probably not.

Speaker 5 (01:10:46):
Depending on your room experience of humor.

Speaker 2 (01:10:50):
Well, I know it's going to be good.

Speaker 3 (01:10:51):
I have songs that you've done in my head, verbatim,
memorized that often come up more than you Know, which.
