Speaker 1 (01:16):
This is Chris Fairbanks and this is Karen Kilgarriff.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Hello, my friend Karen, Hello.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
My friend Chris. What's going down?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
What's going down? My Oh? Here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Have you ever, in your singing and songwriting which everyone
needs to listen to her album Live at the Bootleg anyway,
used any kind of a pedal or modification other than
just a microphone? Or were you just fully fully regular?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
That's see. I think.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
The reason I wanted to get this pedal that I
got on the recommendation of Reggie Watts was it I
can have settings in it for each song because I'm
doing all those cover songs and I ordered this thing,
not knowing if it was the right thing, and then
I saw Christian Duguet use it during his live Belly
(02:17):
Heat and there is a straight up like Share Believe
setting with the auto tune and everything where he sounded
like Share. There's a Phil Collins like in the Air
Tonight setting. But there's also like garage like it adds
texture to your normal voice if not modified or auto
(02:38):
tuning or like some background harmonizing.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
And he has it now. I gave it to.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Him and he's listening all Yeah, he's listening to every
song I'm covering and modifying, adding the modifications. So I
am going into this next show because I'm doing singing
with that band again, even though it makes my back sweat,
and I now have confidence.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Because I have this machine that will have my back.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yes, you have some support, yeah, yeah, so I'm kind
of looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, that sounds good, Like you're basically going to do
songs that when you start singing them, it'll have.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
The right effect.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I don't think anyone will be offended. My goal is
to sound like the songs. I don't want to make
the point. Yeah, I'm not a singer I'm for this.
I'm an impressionist and I just want to sound like
those artists. So I'm very excited about.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
That coming up.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That's cool, that's a fun thing to be excited about.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
And the audience.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
It's an adult skate camp up in Oregon near Mount Hood,
so I think it's the exact audience we need of
like forty year old skateboarders. So sure, I'm very excited.
It's very fun, but I am nervous already. How many
people do you think are going to be at the show?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Apparently there's one hundred and twenty campers.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Holy shit.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
So it's and there's probably nothing else to do that night.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah. I was gonna say, are all the campers boys?
Speaker 3 (04:10):
No, it would have been in the nineties, but I
bet adult means eighteen and over, which means every That's
what's happened with skateboarding now. It's become more diverse than
I could ever have predicted. Yeah, because in the nineties, Yeah,
it was all boys. Yeah, but now every it's really neat.
(04:34):
How that's happened.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, how many more people get to be in it
and how welcoming it is?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I just saw a little girl it was like a
TikTok clip. Of course, a little girl did it. I
shouldn't say a little girl. I have no idea how
she how old she was because she's kind of looks
like fifteen, but she could have been thirty five with
the action sports people the way they look. But she
did a thing where the camera was up at the
top of the half pipe thing she was on, and
(05:03):
she got up into the air and then flipped the
Have you ever seen that where she flipped the board
with her foot?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Oh, it wrapped around.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah, she brought it and made.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
It go like, yes, I saw if that was a
front foot impossible. She did the air and late in
the air the board like vertically on a like using
her foot as an Axidy's wrapped around it and stopped
in mid air and she came down. It was the
coolest thing I've seen.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's crazy. Is that was that intentional?
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yes, very intentional and it looked amazing.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah, there's I don't think when I learned them on
the ground, it was the hardest thing I ever learned
in skateboarding. Oh yeah, that was the coolest thing I've
ever seen. It's funny that you saw that. It made
me so happy it was.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
It was nuts.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I love those ones where I'm like, I don't know
anything about what we're doing here, and I know that
that was very hard and the right.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I love it when.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's the girl skaters just impressing the boy skaters, like
they can't deny how amazing it is.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, it is not that they would anymore, but like.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Right, yeah, that has kind of it's it's just not
a thing anymore that I go to skate parks and
it's like there are moms there, there are people of
all ages, there are all levels.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Tony Hawk is there, He's always there.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
And everyone's making room for each other and unsolicited advice,
but not in a man's plaining, phitty way, like hell.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Like a supportive way.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Yeah it's I love it. Yeah it's and it's pretty
consistently cool. I'm there's still parks where you can go
and get stabbed, but sure anywhere.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
I think the reaction of her it looked like it
was maybe an accident because she was so surprised she
landed it, but I think it was because that was
a first try in competition and she was like, I'm
just going to go for this front foot impossible, and
she did it.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
She did it.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
It's like, oh my god, I did it. Yeah, it's
it's funny the things that make me tear up on
my phone. Yeah, uh, military dad coming home, surprising it skid.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Things like that, surprising as dog.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
First time, little little kids doing a kickflip for the
first time, little girls landing a kickflip and they're so
excited that they start crying. It's the best. Yep, it's
so and my phone knows I want to see that,
and that's all it sends me.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Here's the problem. It's like every once in a while,
I'll have like two hours between one meeting and another
at work, and if I watch TikTok, that's what happens.
I'm sitting at my desk alternately laughing like an idiot
and then just starting to sob where it's like, you
can't be doing this.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
In the workplace.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
You can't like people walk in and be like, hey,
what's up, what do you need?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Just like tears running down my face.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
It's like, yeah, the military man just surprised his golden retriever.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Yes, yeah, Or about a dog that's been lost for
three years reuniting, Like.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
I rewatched them. Yeah, I'm like.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Not in an effort because there's a certain kind of
bursting into tears that it's not coming from a healthy place. Sure,
but I think seeing something sweet and getting emotional in
that way is a good thing. Well.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And also I will say this, it helps me a
lot with the shame crying, the shame aspect of crying.
When you cry, you release cordisol from your body, and
you need to release cordisol. So oftentimes it's your body
being like it is, I'm too stressed and like there's
too much of this energy going on, so you just
have to release it. You don't have to like judge
yourself about it, just like get this fucking out of
(08:51):
my face so I don't have to feel like this anymore.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Yeah, Yeah, it's it's cortisol. What is cortisol?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I think it's like a hormone if that's my first guess,
but I have no idea. But it's like the buzzword
of it's the whatever it is that your body makes
it when you are in like stress, fight or flight,
and it's to keep all your energy up into like
you know, gut up and keep going. But then after
a while, if you're always in fight or flight. You know,
(09:21):
if your nervous system is just regulated, then you're you
have that in your system for no reason. You're just
like trying to get through your day, but you're like
freaking out over nothing, kind of like this card.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Yeah, I hit us.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
I mean, we knew what they were thinking they were doing,
but there's a chance that they didn't.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
And boy, that would have been mad that we're just talking.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
About another white suv. It's the same every time.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
I all.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
The phrase quortas all causes belly fat is something that
I from some infomercial somewhere. Yeah, wouldn't it be great
if I was referencing books I read.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well, books aren't as easy to read as TV is
to watch. Unfortunately, Yes, and here we are in twenty
twenty five America.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I listened to TV on tape. That's how much I
don't like books.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I just use TV as a background for me playing
my colored ball in a cup game, which is the
more pathetic version of what instead of just plain old
watching TV. I can't even focus on an episode of TV.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Talk about this colored ball and a cup because I
know not when.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
You speak it is the best game.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Here's the thing, it's like it Literally, the name of
it if you looked it up on a n app
is something like put put colored ball in cup like
that is it's a trend. I think a translation.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
Go hold for.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
People shouldn't wear t shirts that are very similar to
the color of their skin. It looks like they're running
around with no shirts shirt but thank.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
You, And don't know why. Maybe it's because my phone
decided I needed to see the night Stalker getting attacked
in the middle of the street by civilians the best.
It is great, he got incredible ass kicked I did,
and he was shirtless and she had the same hair style. Anyway,
I don't is it the kind of cup like because
(11:19):
there's a cup on us or a ball on a string,
it looks.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Like a test tube.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
And so every game there are let's say eight colors
of balls and they're all mixed up, stacked up, so
it's like red, sage, green, light, green and blue and there,
and then it just goes like that and there's like
say ten of these test tubes and then there's one
empty test tube. So using the one where you can
(11:43):
put one in at a time, you have to organize
it so it's all just the right colors in the
right tubes.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
Full on like a Rubis type.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Yeah, but you're just kind of bouncing them around because
you can only move a ball to its own colors,
so you can kind of like move these ones over
here and then get the one free. And it's just
kind of an organization game that I my sister and
I I downloaded onto my phone probably five years ago,
and then my sister did two and we both obsessively
played it. Okay, ever since that's my go to like
(12:15):
waiting room game.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Okay, I thought it was an actual physical ball in
a cup.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Now I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Now it's on the phone, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
What do you What game do you play.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
On your firest I have been for a couple of
years now, and I'm very good. For a while, I
was like two hundred in the world. I guess I
played billiards on my phone.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
And I'm sorry you're saying globally you ranked two hundred
on this game.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I mean I'm always playing someone at the flag of
where you live is usually up there, and it's international,
and there's people that are like pool Guru one oh
five or whatever, and they're in Italy, and I will
kick their ass. I'm very good, but I started putting
money into it because you can gamble with that money.
(13:09):
And at one point I had like three hundred dollars
credit and I sent away to get the check and
they never sent the check or it never got to me.
So I stopped putting physical money into it. And I
only total have put like twenty dollars into this game.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
But I, oh, you played it up to three hundred.
But just using the twenty right nice.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Because I got I once I stopped drinking, I stopped
playing real pool, and so it was scratching that itch.
I hate that phrase. And then but it is a
I need a hit of dopamine, and I play three
games while I'm just watching. That's why I watch shows.
(13:51):
And I haven't really paid attention because I'm doing really
good at my phone billiards.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Now one billiards.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
I'm so embarrassed about it.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Don't be embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I mean, I think everyone has a stupid I also
have just the most classic solidaire that I love.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
It just it works.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
It clicks my mind off in the best way. But
when you do billiards on your phone, is it a flicking?
How do you control what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Right, There's like a toggle and you have to pull it.
You can't hit too hard, you really. It takes some
getting used to that part, but it's mostly the If
you want to get a high score, you have to
hit combinations and bounce a ball off of a wall.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
You know.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
I'm never like just hitting a ball into a hole.
Got it's always combination shots. I watch YouTube videos of
how to get the highest score. Oh I have I
put some research into it, and I've practiced. You can
use a practice mode and I did that for months
and then I started playing people. Now I put a
lot of hours in.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I think you just thank you, And I would like
to get a class action lawsuit going for your three
hundred dollars that you were never seeing.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yes, it's clearly a scam.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, it does bother me that if I put more
money into it, I would, because they're supposed to mail
you at check. That's already suspect. It's like you're, yeah,
I'm at a phone ask for my venmo at least cryptocurrency. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yeah, so that I no longer am doing.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
But you can still play people and you still win,
and you just rack up coins that are redeemable nowhere.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
But I can say without bragging.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Because it's it's ridiculous that I'm very good at it.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
You're two hundreds in the world.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
I at one point right now, I'm not at where
are you now? I'm not playing daily anymore.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
It was a real like quarantine addiction, and I'm still
doing it.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, look, judgment, you can't field yourself or something like that,
because what are you supposed to Is there a better
game to play?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Like, right, there's no bad game.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
It's just ooh sorry, I just immediately sort of playing
with my microphone.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
The only bad game is play with the mic while driving. Yeah, yeah,
it is true.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
It's like I cannot judge gamers that are adults, which
I've done my whole life.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
I'm like, I can't believe that.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
I I I stopped playing video games with the first Nintendo,
That's what I say. But no, I'm gaming more than
anyone on my phone. If I wake up in the
middle of the night and have that bizarre three am
insomnia where it's like, nope, you're awake from now on, Yeah,
I play billiards, Yeah for hours?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (16:53):
In bed?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Yeah, I usually open up TikTok, and within several scrolls
sent they're showing me something I could buy, and then
I'm like, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Of course I wouldn't buy that, and I'm like but
and then I just go look.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So I do a lot of like in the middle
of the night because they're always like, look that this blouse.
It's nine dollars, and so I'm just like, well, what's
this about. And it's the craziest like switch for your
brain where you like go from rim sleep to shopping
for shit you absolutely don't need on TikTok.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah, it's it really is. My nieces had never seen
Wally and so we want and it man, it holds up.
It's such a good movie. But much like Idiocracy, it's
kind of scary how much it predicted certain things because
it's a pretty old movie now.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
But everyone is just on.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
This spaceship, yeah, with a food coming in from a straw,
and they're on these hover chairs and they're all on
iPads before iPads existed, uh, and they're ordering stuff and
shopping and not talking to each other. And this was
that came out during flip phone flip phone days, like
(18:10):
not watching movies on your phone days. So it's really
creepy to watch it now, because that's that's what I do.
I look, I kind of shop or window shop on
my phone, and uh, it's not something I'm proud of.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
But it's what we all do. I mean, it's we're
being conditioned to do it. It's what they want us
to do.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I know.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
And I'm not one that likes to fight authority.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You're a go along, get along kind of guy.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Yep. But yes, it's Uh, there could be worse things, ye,
locusts in your phone, there's blood raining.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
I don't know. I haven't read the Bible.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
There's a bunch of bad stuff that can happen.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
There's a bunch of bad stuff at the end that
could happen but probably won't.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Frogs raining down Website's a movie that I think you
were in.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Were you in Magnolia?
Speaker 2 (19:08):
No?
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Did you talk on the phone in Magnolia?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It was in Little Adam Sandler.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Oh yeah, love one of my favorite movies ever of all.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Time, Sweet Sweet Georgia Brown. What's it called?
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Punch drunk Punch, Punch Club, Punch and Judy, that's it,
Punch Drunk Club.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
I love that movie.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
I went to see it at a theater, and I
remember young people in the theater that were mad because
it was not Adam Sandler being happy Gilmore right, that's
a very sweet love story.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
The same thing happened when I went to see Fox
Catcher starring Steve Carolla.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Really yea, And it was a huge, like.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Sold out crowd at the arc Light on like a
Friday night, and I think I was supposed to go
to a show. Say I was supposed to go to
show at like nine thirty and it was six or something,
so I'm like, oh, just go to a movie. And
I was so excited to see this movie because I
knew the true crime that was it was based on
right right, But it was like no one else in
the theater knew, so they were just waiting to laugh
(20:11):
the entire time. So finally he gave he gives this
super weird speech at a like slumber party with the
other wrestlers at his house, and it's super creepy, and
it's supposed to be super creepy, but people like had
waited so long to.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Laugh that they just start laughing.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
They started laughing, and it was but like it was
almost discomfort It was so hilarious.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
So I'm like, no one looked up this movie to
see what it was based.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
On, right, Oh that's yeah, that is bizarre.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's like you people should get used to, Like, didn't
Robin Williams let us know that you could do dramatic roles.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah, that's the whole Like, yeah, turn it, get your
oscar nom.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I mean I watched the Jerry's Kid fundraiser last night
and I didn't laugh a wink. It was just a
sad thing about donating money.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Where's the turn?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Where is the kind of racist undertones?
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Oh? Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, why did you do it?
Speaker 3 (21:18):
I think that was the first movie I saw in
a theater.
Speaker 4 (21:25):
When I was little. Was the Jerry Lewis.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Version of The Jerk, The Jerry Lewis version.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Yeah, there's a Jerry Lewis The Jerk before the Steve
Martin won.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Oh I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, and it's not the same story but the same title. Yeah,
similarly like guy that's dumb but does okay in life
because of the series of events.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
So wait, did Steve Martin intentionally remake that movie?
Speaker 4 (21:53):
I think so?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Yeah, No one knows about the Jerry Lewis version, but
like all of our dad like, hey, I want you
to watch Blazing Saddles, and they changed their mind after
a while. But my dad when I was young, because
he got to interview him once on radio and he
did some of he'd like dipped a comb in his
(22:17):
drinking water and combed his hair like he did some
Jerry Lewis things in front of him because he was
so excited to have it on radio. So he looked
up to him. But if you ask my dad now,
he's like, uh, yeah, I don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
A lot of it's pretty offensive.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Well, also, it just it was of a time.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Also, Jerry Lewis was so extreme.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
He was such a like it wasn't just oh, this
guy's kind of a clown. It was just like I
would always get so irritated when I had to watch
like a Lewis and Martin movie or whatever.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
He was just so over the top. Yeah, so like
it just bugged me.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Yeah he really he's going for it. Yeah. You and
I like more subtle, dry humor.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
We're like the British Office.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But if you show me Martin short acting like Jerry Lewis,
I can't stop laughing.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Yeah, did you see the thing where he's gassing up
a car and talking to mother and daughter and then
he gets tangled in the gas nozzle and then he
just starts shooting the gas in his open mouth.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Was an SCTV sketch that it was like a parody
of some I don't know what kind of movie, but
with Jerry Lewis instead of whoever. Yeah, and it was
he was so funny. He's so funny.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
He's another one that's just like it doesn't really matter
what he's doing, it's just just do it.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Years ago there he even had an HBO special with
bizarre He was like a picket fence in it, singing
a song about watching the yard and his arms were
these giant, like thirty feet of picket fence. Yeah. It
was the most like non sequitur commitment to bizarre things.
(24:18):
And it's another thing where I'm like, did I dream
that up? I've tried to find it on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
They killed it.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It just is out there, like there's a comedy professor
of he's just such a fan of everything good in
Austin John Merriman, and he had these VHS tapes and
he's like, I have the best tape ever. He dusted
off this and I'm like, please don't be face as
(24:46):
of death. And it was his Martin Short HBO comedy
special from back when like Gallagher was doing them and
comedy was not weird or alternative in any way, and
it was the craziest thing I'd ever say, But my
memory of it might be different than I'd love to
see it again.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I told you this story when I worked at Rosie
O'Donnell's ill fated own talk show and Martin Short was
a guest and I had to go in and I
was basically like his celebrity well, he had a celebrity producer,
but I, as the head writer, had to go in
and pitch him the ideas that we had of like
here's all the bits that we could that you could
(25:27):
do with Rosie.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Right like you were his liaison.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I was the well I just had to go pitch
the comedy because no one else knew how to explain it.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
I just wanted to use that word yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
But I went in and there was all these pitches
and I didn't like any of them, but they were
like the one she liked, so I had to So
I was like, you guys could do a thing where
you sing a song about fucking you know, Chicago, and
he's like yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
And he's like nah.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
And then I was like, okay, well there's this other
one where you could do blah blah blah and do
this and he's like, I don't think so. And I
do the third one that like she wants to do
and he's like hmm.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
And then there was no more ideas left.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
But I had already want I had an idea that
I wanted them to do, and I didn't pitch it
to her. So I just pitched to him and I go,
what if what if we say that you guys actually
like you have beef from long ago, and you start
off joking about it, but then you actually get mad
again and you start fighting, which.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Is something he would do as Jiminy Glick.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Right, And he goes, So, as I'm pitching this, his
eyes light up and he goes, That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
And it was the most fucking gratifying moment of my life.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
I'm like, you know you came up with that in
the moment.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
No, no, no, he didn't know anything.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
It was just like the fourth idea I pitched but
I was like, we can't have nothing for this man,
and I knew, I just knew. She just didn't want
to be doing comedy. She's very like vulnerable on this show.
And it was very right, very poorly run. The people
weren't actually supporting her. It was not a good situation.
So she didn't feel comfortable to do comedy. But we
had to think of it all the time and try
(27:02):
to get people like do bits because you had to
fill time. So it was just hilarious because she was
kind of trying to do things she was comfortable doing
that maybe weren't the funniest idea, and he, of course
has just perfect taste. I'm just like, well, you could
be play this game where you both guess the thing.
He's like no. He just kept going like no, no,
(27:23):
And then I was like, well, then how about you
fight to the point of your wrestling on the ground
so happen.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
No, she wouldn't do it, of course, God damn it.
What's that?
Speaker 3 (27:32):
The what was the show called the Rose O'Donnell Show?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I don't remember. Yeah, it was just a it was
a talk show on own, so like very little visibility.
And then on top of that, it was they told
her they were giving her like a one hour one
topic like Oprah. They told her it was going to
be at four o'clock, and so she was like, oh,
I'm being taken seriously. It was like after the view,
and she wanted to do you know, she wanted to
(27:59):
do cause based conversations, right, and that's what we prepped
for her. And then truly at the eleventh hour, own
was like, no, we're putting you on at seven, So
it has to be top variety because nobody's gonna watch
single one hour one topic TV at like right before
they eat dinner.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Right, Well, what's amazing is I just randomly brought up
Martin Short and you had a story about how you
sat in a room with him and pitched him ideas
and that's fucking great.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
I also did did you do stand up on his
talk show?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
No, no, I did.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He I got to do that twice.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Oh that's great and he was super nice and super
But like Blaine was a writer on it, Toby Huss
was a writer on it. They had this whole like
posse of people coming up with cool things. So I
think it's like everybody that that was, you know, my
group of people. So when they were booking comics, they
were just like, oh, that's the best best person.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
If you have a relationship with Martin.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
No, not in the least.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
I mean if you saw him, he would maybe say hi,
I know you.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Not in the least.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
But what if he has a really good memory.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I mean, if he has a Mary Lou Henner style memory,
then yes, I have been in his life more than most.
And I pitched him one really funny idea that just
visually alone, the two of them getting into an argument
about something old and getting so mad that they start
physically fighting would have been the funniest.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Fucking thing of all time.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
Oh man, but it's so cool that that happened.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Millions of dead ideas out there.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Was that the show though, where she had Donnie and
Marie osmon on. She was so excited. She had lunchboxes
and all these memorabilia, and they were like really mean
to her.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Yeah no, that was her first talk. Okay in the nineties. Okay,
that's when she first kicked it off. Okay, right, this
was a later should have never done it. Nobody really
knew why we were there. I was hired to write comedy.
She didn't want comedy.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Well, I like the old days of Rosie wearing a
Kangall hat stand up because I liked her stand up voice.
I know when I was a kid, that was like
one of the voices where I'm like, Okay, this is
a neat job.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Have you heard her tell that story that the first
time she did stand up she just did a Seinfeld
act that she memorized from TV. No way, she just
had seen Seinfeld on TV. So she was like, oh, well,
now i'll do comedy too, like she thought everyone did
just like the same jokes or whatever.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Oh that's insane.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
So she gets up on stage at some club, you know,
in probably about Brooklyn or I don't know, and then
she does Seinfeld's act kills, and then of course she
gets off stage and like yeah, I'm the best, and
then the other comps are like, you can't do that.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Oh that's so funny.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
And that's how she learned like, oh I thought this
was really easy.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Wow, I just do the jokes I hear other people do.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Yeah, that's not I think she was very young.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Yeah, I guess when I first went up, I did
not know that I would have to have material and
repeat the same ideas over and over. Yeah, I thought
that I would just do one man improv and it
was chaotic, and someone right away told me, like, you
(31:27):
should talk about that again, but think about it and
have a joke at the end, not just wride around
on stage in a panic after seven beers. But yeah,
it's there's not really anyone to tell you how to
do it. I guess back then, that's why the kids
(31:49):
these days.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I really do think the generations after my generation got
better and better exponentially is because everyone.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Could watch people.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Oh yeah, you know, like I got to watch Ray Romano,
Jay Leno, John Stuart and like Diane Ford. There's like
what twenty five people you could probably name right, But
then it just kept growing and the cool people kept
getting cooler.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Yeah, that's why that girl can do a front foot
impossible on Bert. You are looking at you can see
what has been done. There's a history of it. And
when I started skateboarding, like it was happening, the tricks
were being invented in that moment.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
And yes, you.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Could order a VHS type and wait for it to
come and by then the footage is one year old. Yeah,
and you can try and learn those tricks watching it
on your VCR. But it's just the immediate access and
to see what everyone's done.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
At times, I'm with comedy and.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
A lot of things, like jealous of the access young
people have.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
I know because I see people that.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Just the other night I did Chatterbox and there's so
many comics on that I can tell have only been
doing it a couple of years, and they were so funny. Yeah,
it's cool.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Also, it's inspiring, it is, but it is frustrating. It's like, oh,
I had to get my diamonds. I had to go
with my hands into this thing of gravel and dig
fucking through it and essentially like other people got cheat codes.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
The more time passed, the easier it got.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
I learned comedy with blood diamonds.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
I killed children miners so that I can say these
terrible jokes.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
And when I say that they are young coal mining children,
they are over eighteen.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I wasn't being redundant when I was saying that.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
I didn't know Urban Outfitters was still a thing.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
It is so shit in there.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I am sorry to come down hard against oh really,
but I went in there to kind of like go, like,
is there one cute shirt I could find even though
I'm so old, or get something from my niece.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
And I was just like, what is happening to our world?
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Quality of everything is shit? Okay, like the quality of ship.
I thought it's more expensive than ever.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
Oh, I thought it was gone. I don't it feels gone.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
That's fine.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
That store would deceive you, though.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
I remember leaving with like bracelets and stuff. I'm like,
why am I wearing bracelets.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And an ashtray and like a bowling pin? And they did,
they had it all.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Yeah, they'd have like a young hot person come up
and be like, oh, you would look so good in that,
like they did.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
They're actively really.
Speaker 5 (34:28):
Me And then I'm leaving with ridiculous hamp Anklet the
fucking what have I done?
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Are they flared pants?
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Can I hear Chris being humbly being paid attention to?
Speaker 4 (34:44):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Sure, Well, I'll walk into the store first, and then
you offer me assistance.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
I guess I'll just do. Oh I wonder if this
will fit me?
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Hey, oh my god, that color looks so good on you.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I should ambo ambo ambo.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Uh oh, follow him and then we'll help ambo. What's
ambo mean is that my dad was a fireman speak.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
No, I just made it up. It's like short for ambulance.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
You know, people love to do that ambo, you know,
like everyone has for some reason, like slang wise people know,
like fifty one fifty type of shit of like what
cops say to each other.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
So I just made one up.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Well, ambo makes it sound like the full word is ambulini.
I guess there are days of helping civil servants.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
No, hey, tattooed Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
That's just for Karen tattoo tank top Bildwyer in a
minivan like him?
Speaker 1 (35:48):
What's he up to?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Let's call Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Oh my god, There's nothing I'd love more.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
He would laugh so hard in all seriousness, we could
we could call people on the is that did that
ever occur to you?
Speaker 4 (36:02):
Let me look like from your dash you're.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Right, let's see, let's just see.
Speaker 4 (36:07):
How is this just hitting me?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I know I've never thought of that before.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
You haven't, right, or are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Never have?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Because there's times your sister is called and it's like, wow,
we're podcasting.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Certainly you can't pick up. But what if Bill Dwyer
had called?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Yeah, I would have picked up for him, not my sister.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Is this a thing we should do on solo episodes
when we run out of gas, which clearly we are,
and this is one of our best ones. We did
a classic act out. We haven't done that for a while.
I mean, uh, we are calling Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
See what happens?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Okay, calling all Dwyers. Oh, this it's gonna be great.
See that's the problem with it. No one answers phones anymore.
(37:10):
It would just be a podcast where we leave clever messages.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I mean, oh, let's.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
As Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
Yes, yeah, yeah, Okay, listener, Now you know why we
called bil dwire If it's anything like it's outgoing message,
he's a nothing but fun.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
Hey Bill, it's Chris Fairbanks and Karen kilgera thank you.
We're podcasting. And we thought we saw you driving with
a tank top and a fresh tattoo, but it wasn't you.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And then we were like, hey, we can I go.
I can call Bil Dwyer right now. I have his
phone number, and clearly this is still your phone number.
Will you come and do this podcast with us? Bil Dwyer,
call me back, text me back. Stop pretending that we
are not friends. We are friends. Stopping so fake talk
to you soon.
Speaker 4 (38:04):
Yes, and get rid of that tattoo.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
It looks bad. That new segment, this is incredible. All
comics and invite them on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
The segments called the big Invite and we throw it
out there. It's our big chance to invite someone that's
also in my contact list on my phone.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
I can't believe we finally have a segment. We we
did try and launch one back with when we did
our one live show Downtown LA where Greg Barratt was
on and for some reason we were just making him
do his bits. Yeah, that we remembered in and that
was like, this is a reoccurring segment. We're going to
do this all the time. And I've forgotten until.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Now what was But the how could it be a
reoccurring segment If it's Greg Barrett doing bits.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
We do it for other people that are Greig Parent
and make them do his bits.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
We could also get Greig Parent to come and do bits.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Yeah, well let's do that as well.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Yeah, it is very much contingent upon us remembering that
person's old jokes.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Yes, that's right.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
We have to really, we both have to be equal
sized fans of that first comedy.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
And it has to be from the era where you
memorize other people's bits. So we could do it with
Greg We could do it with Robert Hauk, So we
could do it with a young Dave Hottel.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Blank Patch. You could do it with Blaine Easy.
Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yes, yeah, but no, I'm excited now for a new segment.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
I'm not kidding when I just realized we're driving around
in a phone booth and we can call people when
we don't have guests.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
Also, it doesn't make sense to me why Bill Dwyer's
not famous.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
He should be a game show fucking host. He should.
He's one of the funniest comedians. Well he should.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Addiction, man, I mean his drug.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
I don't know, kidding, No, just to think of it
because I was drinking and I stopped two and a
half years ago, and it turns out it's just me.
But why, Yes, there is no right, there's no rhyme
or reason. No, Hey, that's right. I've suddenly realized there's
(40:17):
an insult. Wait a second, Yeah, no, I know we're
way different. Wait a minute, there are Yeah, there are
so many people that are so funny and always have
been funny.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
And honestly, if you look at his.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
Career, he's that battle Bots thing came back.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
I know he loves it.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
He works so much, but I just want everybody to
know how funny he's right all the time.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
Yeah, and fun fun to be around.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
Yeah, yeah it is.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
Oh, go go, You're right.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
There are a lot of comics that, but more often
than that, I see comics and I'm like, wait, why
is this person the household name? So I'm starting to
think being extra clever and funny it's not what the
world wants.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Well, it just doesn't. It's there's so much more to it.
I'll never forget. When I worked at Ellen and there's
one day where they have this thing called the Q Rating,
and it's basically a printed out list of the top
one hundred most like, most liked celebrities based on like
(41:29):
basically them testing demographics and having people answer like who
their favorite celebrity is. And sorry, I'm forcing you guys
to go with me, but I just realize I'm not
gonna be able to eat while unless I eat. Now,
I get food. Now, I have to go get my
hair done.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
I love it. I'm going to get some neat too.
We're going to wrap this up now.
Speaker 3 (41:51):
It's Thesmr open mouth smacking. It's yeah, it's amazing what
judges of what the Q rating is.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
Sorry, it's basically demo testing of asking audiences who they like,
but they ask like tens of thousands of people. And
so the number one celebrity on this Q rating list
was Reba McIntyre and I was like, what are you
talking about? And I was like, Tina Fey isn't even
on here, and like, I was so mad, and.
Speaker 4 (42:20):
It was number three is just a bag of Fredo's.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
It truly is the kind of thing where it's just
taking everyone's taste into account and then being like and like,
if everybody got to vote, these would be the top
one hundred celebrities. And it's just very surprising. You know,
there's a lot of the Mark Harmon vibe in the
list where you're like, this is it's not about being innovative,
it's not about when you come to that part of
(42:45):
the business. They want to make their money back the end,
So no one's going out on a limb unless they're rich.
Speaker 3 (42:53):
Yeah, that's that's disappointing because then it's like, oh, if
it's a cross section of America Halfday. It's a pin
are coming from someone wearing overalls, laying in a hammock
drinking sweet tea.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
The lazy farmer, the rare lazy farmer.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Yeah. That it reminds me of when I worked a
club in Calgary and I was trying so hard but
it was one of my first time headlining. And when
they paid me at the end, he was like, I
just people don't drink during your comedy. Yeah, And I'm like,
(43:33):
I don't know. See this other guy, Tommy Sabat, people
drink during his set and I'm like, well, yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
He's drinking on stage and he's talking about drinking.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
Yeah, you should have more jokes about jokes that make
people thirsty, like a joke about accidentally drinking sand from
a canteen. How am I going to make people order
drinks with my comedy?
Speaker 1 (43:54):
The comedy must propel the drinking. He wanted insane.
Speaker 4 (44:00):
I don't care if they're laughing. I want them to
get thirsty.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
And I'm like, what sur peanuts, sir.
Speaker 3 (44:06):
And when he paid me is like, we'll have you
back though, and I'm like, oh, I won't be coming back.
And that felt really good.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
I realized I don't know, that's my name's Canadian.
Speaker 3 (44:16):
And that was two weeks of work.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
Shit.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Yeah, ship, that was a dark time. But yeah, I
there are there are different factors other than just who
comedians think are funny.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
It doesn't even count.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
And yeah, someone like Bill like when sarcasm is that
much of your comedy? My favorite thing? Uh, it's amazing
how many people don't get sarcasm.
Speaker 4 (44:49):
But I'm still going to lean into it.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
I can't help but lean into it.
Speaker 4 (44:53):
That's right series right now?
Speaker 1 (44:56):
Yeah, I know what sarcasm is.
Speaker 3 (44:58):
Oh are you what are you gonna? What do you
get at it?
Speaker 4 (45:04):
In and Out?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
I get a single with cheese with caramelized or with
the girlled onions and die Coke.
Speaker 3 (45:10):
I'm gonna get an empty cup for the scripture on
the bottom.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
I think I'll get.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
A h.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
A double. It's a double and double double with cheese,
just the burger. I think that's okay. He'll have the
menu on his R clipboard.
Speaker 2 (45:30):
Did you hear the owner of In and Out got
in a bunch of trouble because she was trying to
talk about California?
Speaker 1 (45:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (45:36):
I read about it, and I have to say she
didn't really, it's people say worse.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
Really.
Speaker 3 (45:45):
Her response was like, I just was talking about not
wanting to raise my kid's hair. I love California and
it's and the patrons like, I don't know. I bet
she says way worse thing. We should have waited a
couple of weeks.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
Yeah, well, I think everybody's looking for, like what's the
next beef, and I think there's that California. It's like,
now they're going to try to separate us from in
and out, like fuck off, We've like funny, you know.
Speaker 1 (46:16):
People off of the street. Can we please have one
nice thing?
Speaker 3 (46:19):
Yeah? Yeah, oh yeah. It's also it's pretty easy when
you look at her stats. She's just an heiress born
into owning this franchise. Yeah, like a forty year old
daughter of the granddaughter of the original right burger magnates.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
But they cared about us as original people.
Speaker 3 (46:40):
Yeah yeah, but you're right. I'm sure it is. She
doesn't want her kids to grow up under liberal palm trees,
democratic spiders.
Speaker 4 (46:57):
But I am eat here only.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
During an lax trip where I'm picking someone up and
I'm there early, yeah, or at the end of a
flight where I like forgot to eat that morning. It's
I only think of the in and out at Lax,
so I'm very excited. And that's the worst one to
go to because there are so many people there.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Which is that the one that's down by the spearmt
Rhino Gentlemen's Club.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Yeah, now you're speaking my language. It's about twenty yards
from the east exit.
Speaker 1 (47:38):
Right where the employees park.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
And Chris Loiter's yes yeah when he says he's going
to the airport.
Speaker 3 (47:46):
Yes, I've never done comedy on the road. I'm just
shining shoes outside spearm at Rhino.
Speaker 1 (47:53):
Hey, how was your shift?
Speaker 5 (47:55):
Want me to take your clear shoes and put a
little fish query minim?
Speaker 4 (48:00):
I did do that once for a lady friend that
was dancing.
Speaker 3 (48:04):
Really, she had these stall shoes and I'm like, you know,
you could put gravel in them and a little goldfish
on a wire and it looked like the inside of
an aquarium. And then she's like, will you do it?
I'm like, all right, And so I spent a long
time doing a aquarium diorama in these shoes.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Yes, and uh yeah, and you married that woman.
Speaker 3 (48:26):
No, she gave me fifty bucks.
Speaker 4 (48:27):
Oh, she shook on it.
Speaker 7 (48:29):
Was this in Texass No, it was when Fuel TV
was across the street from a treasure It was island
themed and we would go there during the day and
have meetings because you could drink and none of the
Fox executives knew we were drinking.
Speaker 3 (48:47):
Yeah, so we actually would go there as a bar. Yeah,
and it wasn't a nude place. It was like a.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
Bathing it's only yes, that kind of a thing.
Speaker 3 (48:58):
I can't remember that Texas. For if they're topless, you
can't also drink. If you're drinking, they have to have
their boobs covered. So if you're drinking, the titties make
it go crazy.
Speaker 4 (49:12):
I don't know. I can't remember what.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
If they're topless, you have to get chicken fingers.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
Right, or maybe it was Yeah, no food around open nipples.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
It was a germ thing.
Speaker 2 (49:22):
Or you have to serve food because people are going
to get too drunk and go straight into mayhem.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
Right, it's so funny.
Speaker 3 (49:29):
Yeah, I think that's what it was. Yeah, it's just
growing up in Montana where a strip clubs were like
something out by where semi trucks stop on the outskirtskirts
of town. Like there wasn't ever it was like something
people didn't talk about. Yeah, and then I moved to
(49:51):
Texas and every commercial on the radio was about strip
clubs and the football screens and how you can bring
your kids during the day and uh no, and massage
parlors like come into lingerie massage parlor in case you're
(50:12):
driving on the freeway and you want someone to model
some lingerie.
Speaker 4 (50:15):
You bought something for your wife. You're not sure of
your size, go to a little lingerie modeling place.
Speaker 3 (50:21):
They were, yes, and it was oh, and there's churches everywhere,
and that it's just everyone goes to strip clubs. That's
not It was such a part of Texas, even Austin.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
Can you see that little hummingbird sitting on the fence.
Speaker 3 (50:36):
I thought you were appointing because it was time for
me to wash the windows.
Speaker 1 (50:39):
It's so filthy. Where was the humming Do you see
them right there? Oh, he's just hanging out.
Speaker 4 (50:45):
I love when they're not hovering.
Speaker 1 (50:46):
I know.
Speaker 2 (50:47):
It's just like I noticed his beak please fly on
my finger, and he's so small.
Speaker 3 (50:52):
I have sugar water, it's red. I want this hummingbird.
It's all I ever wanted is for a hummingbird.
Speaker 4 (50:59):
Please come to me.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
I bet you like that hummingbird eats twenty.
Speaker 2 (51:04):
French fries a day. He is posted up here aware
of what he's saying.
Speaker 4 (51:10):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3 (51:12):
I think there's enough sugar in the in the French
fries that they'll they'll get their fixed, because all I
know is that red water in a hummingbird feeder is
just sugar. That's right. How do they fly around with
their heart beating at one hundred beats.
Speaker 4 (51:28):
A minute or more?
Speaker 3 (51:30):
I don't remember.
Speaker 4 (51:31):
They have a rapid heartbeat and a lot of energy. Yeah,
they're very small. All just sugar.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
Yeah, well, I mean not strictly. I guess there's some
nectar in there.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
No, it's just when you mix it. Yeah, there's certainly
he's getting.
Speaker 3 (51:46):
I guess a hummingbird feeder only give some stuff that
they shouldn't be eating. That's their nutrients. A perfect flower
that is the shape of a hummingbird beak.
Speaker 1 (51:58):
Nature God make sure at the in and out.
Speaker 3 (52:01):
But I really want that bird to land on my
finger so I can give it a French fry. Well,
well I should we wrap it up before we start shoving.
Speaker 4 (52:12):
Food in our mouth.
Speaker 2 (52:13):
I think so it's a good idea. I think we
should too, but first, can you have me my wallet?
Speaker 3 (52:16):

pay for abreger. This has been a very exciting power

Hello, my friend Karen, Hello.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
My friend Chris. What's going down?
Speaker 4 (01:23):
What's going down? My Oh? Here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Have you ever, in your singing and songwriting which everyone
needs to listen to her album Live at the Bootleg anyway,
used any kind of a pedal or modification other than
just a microphone? Or were you just fully fully regular?
Speaker 4 (01:50):
That's see. I think.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
The reason I wanted to get this pedal that I
got on the recommendation of Reggie Watts was it I
can have settings in it for each song because I'm
doing all those cover songs and I ordered this thing,
not knowing if it was the right thing, and then
I saw Christian Duguet use it during his live Belly
(02:17):
Heat and there is a straight up like Share Believe
setting with the auto tune and everything where he sounded
like Share. There's a Phil Collins like in the Air
Tonight setting. But there's also like garage like it adds
texture to your normal voice if not modified or auto
(02:38):
tuning or like some background harmonizing.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
And he has it now. I gave it to.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Him and he's listening all Yeah, he's listening to every
song I'm covering and modifying, adding the modifications. So I
am going into this next show because I'm doing singing
with that band again, even though it makes my back sweat,
and I now have confidence.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Because I have this machine that will have my back.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yes, you have some support, yeah, yeah, so I'm kind
of looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yeah, that sounds good, Like you're basically going to do
songs that when you start singing them, it'll have.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
The right effect.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I don't think anyone will be offended. My goal is
to sound like the songs. I don't want to make
the point. Yeah, I'm not a singer I'm for this.
I'm an impressionist and I just want to sound like
those artists. So I'm very excited about.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
That coming up.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That's cool, that's a fun thing to be excited about.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
And the audience.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
It's an adult skate camp up in Oregon near Mount Hood,
so I think it's the exact audience we need of
like forty year old skateboarders. So sure, I'm very excited.
It's very fun, but I am nervous already. How many
people do you think are going to be at the show?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Apparently there's one hundred and twenty campers.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Holy shit.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
So it's and there's probably nothing else to do that night.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Yeah. I was gonna say, are all the campers boys?
Speaker 3 (04:10):
No, it would have been in the nineties, but I
bet adult means eighteen and over, which means every That's
what's happened with skateboarding now. It's become more diverse than
I could ever have predicted. Yeah, because in the nineties, Yeah,
it was all boys. Yeah, but now every it's really neat.
(04:34):
How that's happened.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, how many more people get to be in it
and how welcoming it is?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I just saw a little girl it was like a
TikTok clip. Of course, a little girl did it. I
shouldn't say a little girl. I have no idea how
she how old she was because she's kind of looks
like fifteen, but she could have been thirty five with
the action sports people the way they look. But she
did a thing where the camera was up at the
top of the half pipe thing she was on, and
(05:03):
she got up into the air and then flipped the
Have you ever seen that where she flipped the board
with her foot?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
Oh, it wrapped around.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah, she brought it and made.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
It go like, yes, I saw if that was a
front foot impossible. She did the air and late in
the air the board like vertically on a like using
her foot as an Axidy's wrapped around it and stopped
in mid air and she came down. It was the
coolest thing I've seen.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's crazy. Is that was that intentional?
Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yes, very intentional and it looked amazing.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah, there's I don't think when I learned them on
the ground, it was the hardest thing I ever learned
in skateboarding. Oh yeah, that was the coolest thing I've
ever seen. It's funny that you saw that. It made
me so happy it was.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
It was nuts.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I love those ones where I'm like, I don't know
anything about what we're doing here, and I know that
that was very hard and the right.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
I love it when.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's the girl skaters just impressing the boy skaters, like
they can't deny how amazing it is.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, it is not that they would anymore, but like.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Right, yeah, that has kind of it's it's just not
a thing anymore that I go to skate parks and
it's like there are moms there, there are people of
all ages, there are all levels.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Tony Hawk is there, He's always there.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
And everyone's making room for each other and unsolicited advice,
but not in a man's plaining, phitty way, like hell.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Like a supportive way.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Yeah it's I love it. Yeah it's and it's pretty
consistently cool. I'm there's still parks where you can go
and get stabbed, but sure anywhere.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
I think the reaction of her it looked like it
was maybe an accident because she was so surprised she
landed it, but I think it was because that was
a first try in competition and she was like, I'm
just going to go for this front foot impossible, and
she did it.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
She did it.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
It's like, oh my god, I did it. Yeah, it's
it's funny the things that make me tear up on
my phone. Yeah, uh, military dad coming home, surprising it skid.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Things like that, surprising as dog.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
First time, little little kids doing a kickflip for the
first time, little girls landing a kickflip and they're so
excited that they start crying. It's the best. Yep, it's
so and my phone knows I want to see that,
and that's all it sends me.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Here's the problem. It's like every once in a while,
I'll have like two hours between one meeting and another
at work, and if I watch TikTok, that's what happens.
I'm sitting at my desk alternately laughing like an idiot
and then just starting to sob where it's like, you
can't be doing this.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
In the workplace.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
You can't like people walk in and be like, hey,
what's up, what do you need?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Just like tears running down my face.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
It's like, yeah, the military man just surprised his golden retriever.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Yes, yeah, Or about a dog that's been lost for
three years reuniting, Like.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
I rewatched them. Yeah, I'm like.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Not in an effort because there's a certain kind of
bursting into tears that it's not coming from a healthy place. Sure,
but I think seeing something sweet and getting emotional in
that way is a good thing. Well.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
And also I will say this, it helps me a
lot with the shame crying, the shame aspect of crying.
When you cry, you release cordisol from your body, and
you need to release cordisol. So oftentimes it's your body
being like it is, I'm too stressed and like there's
too much of this energy going on, so you just
have to release it. You don't have to like judge
yourself about it, just like get this fucking out of
(08:51):
my face so I don't have to feel like this anymore.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Yeah, Yeah, it's it's cortisol. What is cortisol?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I think it's like a hormone if that's my first guess,
but I have no idea. But it's like the buzzword
of it's the whatever it is that your body makes
it when you are in like stress, fight or flight,
and it's to keep all your energy up into like
you know, gut up and keep going. But then after
a while, if you're always in fight or flight. You know,
(09:21):
if your nervous system is just regulated, then you're you
have that in your system for no reason. You're just
like trying to get through your day, but you're like
freaking out over nothing, kind of like this card.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Yeah, I hit us.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
I mean, we knew what they were thinking they were doing,
but there's a chance that they didn't.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
And boy, that would have been mad that we're just talking.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
About another white suv. It's the same every time.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
I all.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
The phrase quortas all causes belly fat is something that
I from some infomercial somewhere. Yeah, wouldn't it be great
if I was referencing books I read.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Well, books aren't as easy to read as TV is
to watch. Unfortunately, Yes, and here we are in twenty
twenty five America.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I listened to TV on tape. That's how much I
don't like books.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I just use TV as a background for me playing
my colored ball in a cup game, which is the
more pathetic version of what instead of just plain old
watching TV. I can't even focus on an episode of TV.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Talk about this colored ball and a cup because I
know not when.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
You speak it is the best game.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Here's the thing, it's like it Literally, the name of
it if you looked it up on a n app
is something like put put colored ball in cup like
that is it's a trend. I think a translation.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
Go hold for.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
People shouldn't wear t shirts that are very similar to
the color of their skin. It looks like they're running
around with no shirts shirt but thank.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
You, And don't know why. Maybe it's because my phone
decided I needed to see the night Stalker getting attacked
in the middle of the street by civilians the best.
It is great, he got incredible ass kicked I did,
and he was shirtless and she had the same hair style. Anyway,
I don't is it the kind of cup like because
(11:19):
there's a cup on us or a ball on a string,
it looks.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Like a test tube.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
And so every game there are let's say eight colors
of balls and they're all mixed up, stacked up, so
it's like red, sage, green, light, green and blue and there,
and then it just goes like that and there's like
say ten of these test tubes and then there's one
empty test tube. So using the one where you can
(11:43):
put one in at a time, you have to organize
it so it's all just the right colors in the
right tubes.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
Full on like a Rubis type.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Yeah, but you're just kind of bouncing them around because
you can only move a ball to its own colors,
so you can kind of like move these ones over
here and then get the one free. And it's just
kind of an organization game that I my sister and
I I downloaded onto my phone probably five years ago,
and then my sister did two and we both obsessively
played it. Okay, ever since that's my go to like
(12:15):
waiting room game.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Okay, I thought it was an actual physical ball in
a cup.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Now I'm with you.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Now it's on the phone, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
What do you What game do you play.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
On your firest I have been for a couple of
years now, and I'm very good. For a while, I
was like two hundred in the world. I guess I
played billiards on my phone.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
And I'm sorry you're saying globally you ranked two hundred
on this game.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
I mean I'm always playing someone at the flag of
where you live is usually up there, and it's international,
and there's people that are like pool Guru one oh
five or whatever, and they're in Italy, and I will
kick their ass. I'm very good, but I started putting
money into it because you can gamble with that money.
(13:09):
And at one point I had like three hundred dollars
credit and I sent away to get the check and
they never sent the check or it never got to me.
So I stopped putting physical money into it. And I
only total have put like twenty dollars into this game.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
But I, oh, you played it up to three hundred.
But just using the twenty right nice.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Because I got I once I stopped drinking, I stopped
playing real pool, and so it was scratching that itch.
I hate that phrase. And then but it is a
I need a hit of dopamine, and I play three
games while I'm just watching. That's why I watch shows.
(13:51):
And I haven't really paid attention because I'm doing really
good at my phone billiards.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Now one billiards.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
I'm so embarrassed about it.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Don't be embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I mean, I think everyone has a stupid I also
have just the most classic solidaire that I love.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
It just it works.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
It clicks my mind off in the best way. But
when you do billiards on your phone, is it a flicking?
How do you control what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Right, There's like a toggle and you have to pull it.
You can't hit too hard, you really. It takes some
getting used to that part, but it's mostly the If
you want to get a high score, you have to
hit combinations and bounce a ball off of a wall.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
You know.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
I'm never like just hitting a ball into a hole.
Got it's always combination shots. I watch YouTube videos of
how to get the highest score. Oh I have I
put some research into it, and I've practiced. You can
use a practice mode and I did that for months
and then I started playing people. Now I put a
lot of hours in.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I think you just thank you, And I would like
to get a class action lawsuit going for your three
hundred dollars that you were never seeing.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Yes, it's clearly a scam.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, it does bother me that if I put more
money into it, I would, because they're supposed to mail
you at check. That's already suspect. It's like you're, yeah,
I'm at a phone ask for my venmo at least cryptocurrency. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yeah, so that I no longer am doing.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
But you can still play people and you still win,
and you just rack up coins that are redeemable nowhere.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
But I can say without bragging.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Because it's it's ridiculous that I'm very good at it.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
You're two hundreds in the world.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
I at one point right now, I'm not at where
are you now? I'm not playing daily anymore.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
It was a real like quarantine addiction, and I'm still
doing it.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Yeah, look, judgment, you can't field yourself or something like that,
because what are you supposed to Is there a better
game to play?
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Like, right, there's no bad game.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
It's just ooh sorry, I just immediately sort of playing
with my microphone.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
The only bad game is play with the mic while driving. Yeah, yeah,
it is true.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
It's like I cannot judge gamers that are adults, which
I've done my whole life.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
I'm like, I can't believe that.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
I I I stopped playing video games with the first Nintendo,
That's what I say. But no, I'm gaming more than
anyone on my phone. If I wake up in the
middle of the night and have that bizarre three am
insomnia where it's like, nope, you're awake from now on, Yeah,
I play billiards, Yeah for hours?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (16:53):
In bed?
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Yeah, I usually open up TikTok, and within several scrolls
sent they're showing me something I could buy, and then
I'm like, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Of course I wouldn't buy that, and I'm like but
and then I just go look.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So I do a lot of like in the middle
of the night because they're always like, look that this blouse.
It's nine dollars, and so I'm just like, well, what's
this about. And it's the craziest like switch for your
brain where you like go from rim sleep to shopping
for shit you absolutely don't need on TikTok.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
Yeah, it's it really is. My nieces had never seen
Wally and so we want and it man, it holds up.
It's such a good movie. But much like Idiocracy, it's
kind of scary how much it predicted certain things because
it's a pretty old movie now.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
But everyone is just on.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
This spaceship, yeah, with a food coming in from a straw,
and they're on these hover chairs and they're all on
iPads before iPads existed, uh, and they're ordering stuff and
shopping and not talking to each other. And this was
that came out during flip phone flip phone days, like
(18:10):
not watching movies on your phone days. So it's really
creepy to watch it now, because that's that's what I do.
I look, I kind of shop or window shop on
my phone, and uh, it's not something I'm proud of.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
But it's what we all do. I mean, it's we're
being conditioned to do it. It's what they want us
to do.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
I know.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
And I'm not one that likes to fight authority.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You're a go along, get along kind of guy.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Yep. But yes, it's Uh, there could be worse things, ye,
locusts in your phone, there's blood raining.
Speaker 4 (18:55):
I don't know. I haven't read the Bible.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
There's a bunch of bad stuff that can happen.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
There's a bunch of bad stuff at the end that
could happen but probably won't.
Speaker 3 (19:02):
Frogs raining down Website's a movie that I think you
were in.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Were you in Magnolia?
Speaker 2 (19:08):
No?
Speaker 4 (19:08):
Did you talk on the phone in Magnolia?
Speaker 3 (19:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
It was in Little Adam Sandler.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
Oh yeah, love one of my favorite movies ever of all.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Time, Sweet Sweet Georgia Brown. What's it called?
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Punch drunk Punch, Punch Club, Punch and Judy, that's it,
Punch Drunk Club.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
I love that movie.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
I went to see it at a theater, and I
remember young people in the theater that were mad because
it was not Adam Sandler being happy Gilmore right, that's
a very sweet love story.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
The same thing happened when I went to see Fox
Catcher starring Steve Carolla.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Really yea, And it was a huge, like.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Sold out crowd at the arc Light on like a
Friday night, and I think I was supposed to go
to a show. Say I was supposed to go to
show at like nine thirty and it was six or something,
so I'm like, oh, just go to a movie. And
I was so excited to see this movie because I
knew the true crime that was it was based on
right right, But it was like no one else in
the theater knew, so they were just waiting to laugh
(20:11):
the entire time. So finally he gave he gives this
super weird speech at a like slumber party with the
other wrestlers at his house, and it's super creepy, and
it's supposed to be super creepy, but people like had
waited so long to.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Laugh that they just start laughing.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
They started laughing, and it was but like it was
almost discomfort It was so hilarious.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
So I'm like, no one looked up this movie to
see what it was based.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
On, right, Oh that's yeah, that is bizarre.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
It's like you people should get used to, Like, didn't
Robin Williams let us know that you could do dramatic roles.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Yeah, that's the whole Like, yeah, turn it, get your
oscar nom.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
I mean I watched the Jerry's Kid fundraiser last night
and I didn't laugh a wink. It was just a
sad thing about donating money.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Where's the turn?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Where is the kind of racist undertones?
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Oh? Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, why did you do it?
Speaker 3 (21:18):
I think that was the first movie I saw in
a theater.
Speaker 4 (21:25):
When I was little. Was the Jerry Lewis.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Version of The Jerk, The Jerry Lewis version.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Yeah, there's a Jerry Lewis The Jerk before the Steve
Martin won.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Oh I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, and it's not the same story but the same title. Yeah,
similarly like guy that's dumb but does okay in life
because of the series of events.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
So wait, did Steve Martin intentionally remake that movie?
Speaker 4 (21:53):
I think so?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Yeah, No one knows about the Jerry Lewis version, but
like all of our dad like, hey, I want you
to watch Blazing Saddles, and they changed their mind after
a while. But my dad when I was young, because
he got to interview him once on radio and he
did some of he'd like dipped a comb in his
(22:17):
drinking water and combed his hair like he did some
Jerry Lewis things in front of him because he was
so excited to have it on radio. So he looked
up to him. But if you ask my dad now,
he's like, uh, yeah, I don't know what I was thinking.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
A lot of it's pretty offensive.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Well, also, it just it was of a time.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Also, Jerry Lewis was so extreme.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
He was such a like it wasn't just oh, this
guy's kind of a clown. It was just like I
would always get so irritated when I had to watch
like a Lewis and Martin movie or whatever.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
He was just so over the top. Yeah, so like
it just bugged me.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Yeah he really he's going for it. Yeah. You and
I like more subtle, dry humor.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
We're like the British Office.
Speaker 3 (23:08):
But if you show me Martin short acting like Jerry Lewis,
I can't stop laughing.
Speaker 5 (23:17):
Yeah, did you see the thing where he's gassing up
a car and talking to mother and daughter and then
he gets tangled in the gas nozzle and then he
just starts shooting the gas in his open mouth.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Was an SCTV sketch that it was like a parody
of some I don't know what kind of movie, but
with Jerry Lewis instead of whoever. Yeah, and it was
he was so funny. He's so funny.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
He's another one that's just like it doesn't really matter
what he's doing, it's just just do it.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Years ago there he even had an HBO special with
bizarre He was like a picket fence in it, singing
a song about watching the yard and his arms were
these giant, like thirty feet of picket fence. Yeah. It
was the most like non sequitur commitment to bizarre things.
(24:18):
And it's another thing where I'm like, did I dream
that up? I've tried to find it on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
They killed it.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
It just is out there, like there's a comedy professor
of he's just such a fan of everything good in
Austin John Merriman, and he had these VHS tapes and
he's like, I have the best tape ever. He dusted
off this and I'm like, please don't be face as
(24:46):
of death. And it was his Martin Short HBO comedy
special from back when like Gallagher was doing them and
comedy was not weird or alternative in any way, and
it was the craziest thing I'd ever say, But my
memory of it might be different than I'd love to
see it again.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I told you this story when I worked at Rosie
O'Donnell's ill fated own talk show and Martin Short was
a guest and I had to go in and I
was basically like his celebrity well, he had a celebrity producer,
but I, as the head writer, had to go in
and pitch him the ideas that we had of like
here's all the bits that we could that you could
(25:27):
do with Rosie.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Right like you were his liaison.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I was the well I just had to go pitch
the comedy because no one else knew how to explain it.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
I just wanted to use that word yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
But I went in and there was all these pitches
and I didn't like any of them, but they were
like the one she liked, so I had to So
I was like, you guys could do a thing where
you sing a song about fucking you know, Chicago, and
he's like yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
And he's like nah.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
And then I was like, okay, well there's this other
one where you could do blah blah blah and do
this and he's like, I don't think so. And I
do the third one that like she wants to do
and he's like hmm.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
And then there was no more ideas left.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
But I had already want I had an idea that
I wanted them to do, and I didn't pitch it
to her. So I just pitched to him and I go,
what if what if we say that you guys actually
like you have beef from long ago, and you start
off joking about it, but then you actually get mad
again and you start fighting, which.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
Is something he would do as Jiminy Glick.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Right, And he goes, So, as I'm pitching this, his
eyes light up and he goes, That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
And it was the most fucking gratifying moment of my life.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
I'm like, you know you came up with that in
the moment.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
No, no, no, he didn't know anything.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
It was just like the fourth idea I pitched but
I was like, we can't have nothing for this man,
and I knew, I just knew. She just didn't want
to be doing comedy. She's very like vulnerable on this show.
And it was very right, very poorly run. The people
weren't actually supporting her. It was not a good situation.
So she didn't feel comfortable to do comedy. But we
had to think of it all the time and try
(27:02):
to get people like do bits because you had to
fill time. So it was just hilarious because she was
kind of trying to do things she was comfortable doing
that maybe weren't the funniest idea, and he, of course
has just perfect taste. I'm just like, well, you could
be play this game where you both guess the thing.
He's like no. He just kept going like no, no,
(27:23):
And then I was like, well, then how about you
fight to the point of your wrestling on the ground
so happen.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
No, she wouldn't do it, of course, God damn it.
What's that?
Speaker 3 (27:32):
The what was the show called the Rose O'Donnell Show?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I don't remember. Yeah, it was just a it was
a talk show on own, so like very little visibility.
And then on top of that, it was they told
her they were giving her like a one hour one
topic like Oprah. They told her it was going to
be at four o'clock, and so she was like, oh,
I'm being taken seriously. It was like after the view,
and she wanted to do you know, she wanted to
(27:59):
do cause based conversations, right, and that's what we prepped
for her. And then truly at the eleventh hour, own
was like, no, we're putting you on at seven, So
it has to be top variety because nobody's gonna watch
single one hour one topic TV at like right before
they eat dinner.
Speaker 3 (28:18):
Right, Well, what's amazing is I just randomly brought up
Martin Short and you had a story about how you
sat in a room with him and pitched him ideas
and that's fucking great.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
I also did did you do stand up on his
talk show?
Speaker 3 (28:35):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (28:35):
No, no, I did.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He I got to do that twice.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Oh that's great and he was super nice and super
But like Blaine was a writer on it, Toby Huss
was a writer on it. They had this whole like
posse of people coming up with cool things. So I
think it's like everybody that that was, you know, my
group of people. So when they were booking comics, they
were just like, oh, that's the best best person.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
If you have a relationship with Martin.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
No, not in the least.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
I mean if you saw him, he would maybe say hi,
I know you.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
Not in the least.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
But what if he has a really good memory.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I mean, if he has a Mary Lou Henner style memory,
then yes, I have been in his life more than most.
And I pitched him one really funny idea that just
visually alone, the two of them getting into an argument
about something old and getting so mad that they start
physically fighting would have been the funniest.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Fucking thing of all time.
Speaker 4 (29:35):
Oh man, but it's so cool that that happened.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Millions of dead ideas out there.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Was that the show though, where she had Donnie and
Marie osmon on. She was so excited. She had lunchboxes
and all these memorabilia, and they were like really mean
to her.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Yeah no, that was her first talk. Okay in the nineties. Okay,
that's when she first kicked it off. Okay, right, this
was a later should have never done it. Nobody really
knew why we were there. I was hired to write comedy.
She didn't want comedy.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
Well, I like the old days of Rosie wearing a
Kangall hat stand up because I liked her stand up voice.
I know when I was a kid, that was like
one of the voices where I'm like, Okay, this is
a neat job.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
Have you heard her tell that story that the first
time she did stand up she just did a Seinfeld
act that she memorized from TV. No way, she just
had seen Seinfeld on TV. So she was like, oh, well,
now i'll do comedy too, like she thought everyone did
just like the same jokes or whatever.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
Oh that's insane.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
So she gets up on stage at some club, you know,
in probably about Brooklyn or I don't know, and then
she does Seinfeld's act kills, and then of course she
gets off stage and like yeah, I'm the best, and
then the other comps are like, you can't do that.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Oh that's so funny.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
And that's how she learned like, oh I thought this
was really easy.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Wow, I just do the jokes I hear other people do.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Yeah, that's not I think she was very young.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Yeah, I guess when I first went up, I did
not know that I would have to have material and
repeat the same ideas over and over. Yeah, I thought
that I would just do one man improv and it
was chaotic, and someone right away told me, like, you
(31:27):
should talk about that again, but think about it and
have a joke at the end, not just wride around
on stage in a panic after seven beers. But yeah,
it's there's not really anyone to tell you how to
do it. I guess back then, that's why the kids
(31:49):
these days.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I really do think the generations after my generation got
better and better exponentially is because everyone.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Could watch people.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Oh yeah, you know, like I got to watch Ray Romano,
Jay Leno, John Stuart and like Diane Ford. There's like
what twenty five people you could probably name right, But
then it just kept growing and the cool people kept
getting cooler.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
Yeah, that's why that girl can do a front foot
impossible on Bert. You are looking at you can see
what has been done. There's a history of it. And
when I started skateboarding, like it was happening, the tricks
were being invented in that moment.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
And yes, you.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
Could order a VHS type and wait for it to
come and by then the footage is one year old. Yeah,
and you can try and learn those tricks watching it
on your VCR. But it's just the immediate access and
to see what everyone's done.
Speaker 4 (32:47):
At times, I'm with comedy and.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
A lot of things, like jealous of the access young
people have.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
I know because I see people that.
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Just the other night I did Chatterbox and there's so
many comics on that I can tell have only been
doing it a couple of years, and they were so funny. Yeah,
it's cool.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
Also, it's inspiring, it is, but it is frustrating. It's like, oh,
I had to get my diamonds. I had to go
with my hands into this thing of gravel and dig
fucking through it and essentially like other people got cheat codes.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
The more time passed, the easier it got.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
I learned comedy with blood diamonds.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
I killed children miners so that I can say these
terrible jokes.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
And when I say that they are young coal mining children,
they are over eighteen.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I wasn't being redundant when I was saying that.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
I didn't know Urban Outfitters was still a thing.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
It is so shit in there.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
I am sorry to come down hard against oh really,
but I went in there to kind of like go, like,
is there one cute shirt I could find even though
I'm so old, or get something from my niece.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
And I was just like, what is happening to our world?
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Quality of everything is shit? Okay, like the quality of ship.
I thought it's more expensive than ever.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
Oh, I thought it was gone. I don't it feels gone.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
That's fine.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
That store would deceive you, though.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
I remember leaving with like bracelets and stuff. I'm like,
why am I wearing bracelets.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
And an ashtray and like a bowling pin? And they did,
they had it all.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
Yeah, they'd have like a young hot person come up
and be like, oh, you would look so good in that,
like they did.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
They're actively really.
Speaker 5 (34:28):
Me And then I'm leaving with ridiculous hamp Anklet the
fucking what have I done?
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Are they flared pants?
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Can I hear Chris being humbly being paid attention to?
Speaker 4 (34:44):
Sure?
Speaker 3 (34:44):
Sure, Well, I'll walk into the store first, and then
you offer me assistance.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
I guess I'll just do. Oh I wonder if this
will fit me?
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Hey, oh my god, that color looks so good on you.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I should ambo ambo ambo.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Uh oh, follow him and then we'll help ambo. What's
ambo mean is that my dad was a fireman speak.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
No, I just made it up. It's like short for ambulance.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
You know, people love to do that ambo, you know,
like everyone has for some reason, like slang wise people know,
like fifty one fifty type of shit of like what
cops say to each other.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
So I just made one up.
Speaker 3 (35:29):
Well, ambo makes it sound like the full word is ambulini.
I guess there are days of helping civil servants.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
No, hey, tattooed Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
That's just for Karen tattoo tank top Bildwyer in a
minivan like him?
Speaker 1 (35:48):
What's he up to?
Speaker 2 (35:49):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (35:49):
Let's call Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
Oh my god, There's nothing I'd love more.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
He would laugh so hard in all seriousness, we could
we could call people on the is that did that
ever occur to you?
Speaker 4 (36:02):
Let me look like from your dash you're.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Right, let's see, let's just see.
Speaker 4 (36:07):
How is this just hitting me?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
I know I've never thought of that before.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
You haven't, right, or are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Never have?
Speaker 3 (36:14):
Because there's times your sister is called and it's like, wow,
we're podcasting.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Certainly you can't pick up. But what if Bill Dwyer
had called?
Speaker 2 (36:21):
Yeah, I would have picked up for him, not my sister.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Is this a thing we should do on solo episodes
when we run out of gas, which clearly we are,
and this is one of our best ones. We did
a classic act out. We haven't done that for a while.
I mean, uh, we are calling Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
See what happens?
Speaker 3 (36:44):
Okay, calling all Dwyers. Oh, this it's gonna be great.
See that's the problem with it. No one answers phones anymore.
(37:10):
It would just be a podcast where we leave clever messages.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
I mean, oh, let's.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
As Bill Dwyer.
Speaker 6 (37:17):
Yes, yeah, yeah, Okay, listener, Now you know why we
called bil dwire If it's anything like it's outgoing message,
he's a nothing but fun.
Speaker 3 (37:32):
Hey Bill, it's Chris Fairbanks and Karen kilgera thank you.
We're podcasting. And we thought we saw you driving with
a tank top and a fresh tattoo, but it wasn't you.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
And then we were like, hey, we can I go.
I can call Bil Dwyer right now. I have his
phone number, and clearly this is still your phone number.
Will you come and do this podcast with us? Bil Dwyer,
call me back, text me back. Stop pretending that we
are not friends. We are friends. Stopping so fake talk
to you soon.
Speaker 4 (38:04):
Yes, and get rid of that tattoo.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
It looks bad. That new segment, this is incredible. All
comics and invite them on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
The segments called the big Invite and we throw it
out there. It's our big chance to invite someone that's
also in my contact list on my phone.
Speaker 3 (38:29):
I can't believe we finally have a segment. We we
did try and launch one back with when we did
our one live show Downtown LA where Greg Barratt was
on and for some reason we were just making him
do his bits. Yeah, that we remembered in and that
was like, this is a reoccurring segment. We're going to
do this all the time. And I've forgotten until.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Now what was But the how could it be a
reoccurring segment If it's Greg Barrett doing bits.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
We do it for other people that are Greig Parent
and make them do his bits.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
We could also get Greig Parent to come and do bits.
Speaker 3 (39:05):
Yeah, well let's do that as well.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
I think it.
Speaker 3 (39:08):
Yeah, it is very much contingent upon us remembering that
person's old jokes.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Yes, that's right.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
We have to really, we both have to be equal
sized fans of that first comedy.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
And it has to be from the era where you
memorize other people's bits. So we could do it with
Greg We could do it with Robert Hauk, So we
could do it with a young Dave Hottel.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Blank Patch. You could do it with Blaine Easy.
Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yes, yeah, but no, I'm excited now for a new segment.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
I'm not kidding when I just realized we're driving around
in a phone booth and we can call people when
we don't have guests.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
Also, it doesn't make sense to me why Bill Dwyer's
not famous.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
He should be a game show fucking host. He should.
He's one of the funniest comedians. Well he should.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Addiction, man, I mean his drug.
Speaker 3 (39:56):
I don't know, kidding, No, just to think of it
because I was drinking and I stopped two and a
half years ago, and it turns out it's just me.
But why, Yes, there is no right, there's no rhyme
or reason. No, Hey, that's right. I've suddenly realized there's
(40:17):
an insult. Wait a second, Yeah, no, I know we're
way different. Wait a minute, there are Yeah, there are
so many people that are so funny and always have
been funny.
Speaker 4 (40:29):
And honestly, if you look at his.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
Career, he's that battle Bots thing came back.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
I know he loves it.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
He works so much, but I just want everybody to
know how funny he's right all the time.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
Yeah, and fun fun to be around.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
Yeah, yeah it is.
Speaker 4 (40:47):
Oh, go go, You're right.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
There are a lot of comics that, but more often
than that, I see comics and I'm like, wait, why
is this person the household name? So I'm starting to
think being extra clever and funny it's not what the
world wants.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
Well, it just doesn't. It's there's so much more to it.
I'll never forget. When I worked at Ellen and there's
one day where they have this thing called the Q Rating,
and it's basically a printed out list of the top
one hundred most like, most liked celebrities based on like
(41:29):
basically them testing demographics and having people answer like who
their favorite celebrity is. And sorry, I'm forcing you guys
to go with me, but I just realize I'm not
gonna be able to eat while unless I eat. Now,
I get food. Now, I have to go get my
hair done.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
I love it. I'm going to get some neat too.
We're going to wrap this up now.
Speaker 3 (41:51):
It's Thesmr open mouth smacking. It's yeah, it's amazing what
judges of what the Q rating is.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
Sorry, it's basically demo testing of asking audiences who they like,
but they ask like tens of thousands of people. And
so the number one celebrity on this Q rating list
was Reba McIntyre and I was like, what are you
talking about? And I was like, Tina Fey isn't even
on here, and like, I was so mad, and.
Speaker 4 (42:20):
It was number three is just a bag of Fredo's.
Speaker 2 (42:22):
It truly is the kind of thing where it's just
taking everyone's taste into account and then being like and like,
if everybody got to vote, these would be the top
one hundred celebrities. And it's just very surprising. You know,
there's a lot of the Mark Harmon vibe in the
list where you're like, this is it's not about being innovative,
it's not about when you come to that part of
(42:45):
the business. They want to make their money back the end,
So no one's going out on a limb unless they're rich.
Speaker 3 (42:53):
Yeah, that's that's disappointing because then it's like, oh, if
it's a cross section of America Halfday. It's a pin
are coming from someone wearing overalls, laying in a hammock
drinking sweet tea.
Speaker 1 (43:07):
The lazy farmer, the rare lazy farmer.
Speaker 3 (43:10):
Yeah. That it reminds me of when I worked a
club in Calgary and I was trying so hard but
it was one of my first time headlining. And when
they paid me at the end, he was like, I
just people don't drink during your comedy. Yeah, And I'm like,
(43:33):
I don't know. See this other guy, Tommy Sabat, people
drink during his set and I'm like, well, yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
He's drinking on stage and he's talking about drinking.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
Yeah, you should have more jokes about jokes that make
people thirsty, like a joke about accidentally drinking sand from
a canteen. How am I going to make people order
drinks with my comedy?
Speaker 1 (43:54):
The comedy must propel the drinking. He wanted insane.
Speaker 4 (44:00):
I don't care if they're laughing. I want them to
get thirsty.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
And I'm like, what sur peanuts, sir.
Speaker 3 (44:06):
And when he paid me is like, we'll have you
back though, and I'm like, oh, I won't be coming back.
And that felt really good.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
I realized I don't know, that's my name's Canadian.
Speaker 3 (44:16):
And that was two weeks of work.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
Shit.
Speaker 3 (44:19):
Yeah, ship, that was a dark time. But yeah, I
there are there are different factors other than just who
comedians think are funny.
Speaker 1 (44:34):
It doesn't even count.
Speaker 3 (44:35):
And yeah, someone like Bill like when sarcasm is that
much of your comedy? My favorite thing? Uh, it's amazing
how many people don't get sarcasm.
Speaker 4 (44:49):
But I'm still going to lean into it.
Speaker 1 (44:51):
I can't help but lean into it.
Speaker 4 (44:53):
That's right series right now?
Speaker 1 (44:56):
Yeah, I know what sarcasm is.
Speaker 3 (44:58):
Oh are you what are you gonna? What do you
get at it?
Speaker 4 (45:04):
In and Out?
Speaker 2 (45:04):
I get a single with cheese with caramelized or with
the girlled onions and die Coke.
Speaker 3 (45:10):
I'm gonna get an empty cup for the scripture on
the bottom.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
I think I'll get.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
A h.
Speaker 4 (45:18):
A double. It's a double and double double with cheese,
just the burger. I think that's okay. He'll have the
menu on his R clipboard.
Speaker 2 (45:30):
Did you hear the owner of In and Out got
in a bunch of trouble because she was trying to
talk about California?
Speaker 1 (45:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (45:36):
I read about it, and I have to say she
didn't really, it's people say worse.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
Really.
Speaker 3 (45:45):
Her response was like, I just was talking about not
wanting to raise my kid's hair. I love California and
it's and the patrons like, I don't know. I bet
she says way worse thing. We should have waited a
couple of weeks.
Speaker 2 (46:02):
Yeah, well, I think everybody's looking for, like what's the
next beef, and I think there's that California. It's like,
now they're going to try to separate us from in
and out, like fuck off, We've like funny, you know.
Speaker 1 (46:16):
People off of the street. Can we please have one
nice thing?
Speaker 3 (46:19):
Yeah? Yeah, oh yeah. It's also it's pretty easy when
you look at her stats. She's just an heiress born
into owning this franchise. Yeah, like a forty year old
daughter of the granddaughter of the original right burger magnates.
Speaker 1 (46:37):
But they cared about us as original people.
Speaker 3 (46:40):
Yeah yeah, but you're right. I'm sure it is. She
doesn't want her kids to grow up under liberal palm trees,
democratic spiders.
Speaker 4 (46:57):
But I am eat here only.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
During an lax trip where I'm picking someone up and
I'm there early, yeah, or at the end of a
flight where I like forgot to eat that morning. It's
I only think of the in and out at Lax,
so I'm very excited. And that's the worst one to
go to because there are so many people there.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Which is that the one that's down by the spearmt
Rhino Gentlemen's Club.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
Yeah, now you're speaking my language. It's about twenty yards
from the east exit.
Speaker 1 (47:38):
Right where the employees park.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
And Chris Loiter's yes yeah when he says he's going
to the airport.
Speaker 3 (47:46):
Yes, I've never done comedy on the road. I'm just
shining shoes outside spearm at Rhino.
Speaker 1 (47:53):
Hey, how was your shift?
Speaker 5 (47:55):
Want me to take your clear shoes and put a
little fish query minim?
Speaker 4 (48:00):
I did do that once for a lady friend that
was dancing.
Speaker 3 (48:04):
Really, she had these stall shoes and I'm like, you know,
you could put gravel in them and a little goldfish
on a wire and it looked like the inside of
an aquarium. And then she's like, will you do it?
I'm like, all right, And so I spent a long
time doing a aquarium diorama in these shoes.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Yes, and uh yeah, and you married that woman.
Speaker 3 (48:26):
No, she gave me fifty bucks.
Speaker 4 (48:27):
Oh, she shook on it.
Speaker 7 (48:29):
Was this in Texass No, it was when Fuel TV
was across the street from a treasure It was island
themed and we would go there during the day and
have meetings because you could drink and none of the
Fox executives knew we were drinking.
Speaker 3 (48:47):
Yeah, so we actually would go there as a bar. Yeah,
and it wasn't a nude place. It was like a.
Speaker 4 (48:56):
Bathing it's only yes, that kind of a thing.
Speaker 3 (48:58):
I can't remember that Texas. For if they're topless, you
can't also drink. If you're drinking, they have to have
their boobs covered. So if you're drinking, the titties make
it go crazy.
Speaker 4 (49:12):
I don't know. I can't remember what.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
If they're topless, you have to get chicken fingers.
Speaker 3 (49:16):
Right, or maybe it was Yeah, no food around open nipples.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
It was a germ thing.
Speaker 2 (49:22):
Or you have to serve food because people are going
to get too drunk and go straight into mayhem.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
Right, it's so funny.
Speaker 3 (49:29):
Yeah, I think that's what it was. Yeah, it's just
growing up in Montana where a strip clubs were like
something out by where semi trucks stop on the outskirtskirts
of town. Like there wasn't ever it was like something
people didn't talk about. Yeah, and then I moved to
(49:51):
Texas and every commercial on the radio was about strip
clubs and the football screens and how you can bring
your kids during the day and uh no, and massage
parlors like come into lingerie massage parlor in case you're
(50:12):
driving on the freeway and you want someone to model
some lingerie.
Speaker 4 (50:15):
You bought something for your wife. You're not sure of
your size, go to a little lingerie modeling place.
Speaker 3 (50:21):
They were, yes, and it was oh, and there's churches everywhere,
and that it's just everyone goes to strip clubs. That's
not It was such a part of Texas, even Austin.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
Can you see that little hummingbird sitting on the fence.
Speaker 3 (50:36):
I thought you were appointing because it was time for
me to wash the windows.
Speaker 1 (50:39):
It's so filthy. Where was the humming Do you see
them right there? Oh, he's just hanging out.
Speaker 4 (50:45):
I love when they're not hovering.
Speaker 1 (50:46):
I know.
Speaker 2 (50:47):
It's just like I noticed his beak please fly on
my finger, and he's so small.
Speaker 3 (50:52):
I have sugar water, it's red. I want this hummingbird.
It's all I ever wanted is for a hummingbird.
Speaker 4 (50:59):
Please come to me.
Speaker 1 (51:01):
I bet you like that hummingbird eats twenty.
Speaker 2 (51:04):
French fries a day. He is posted up here aware
of what he's saying.
Speaker 4 (51:10):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 3 (51:12):
I think there's enough sugar in the in the French
fries that they'll they'll get their fixed, because all I
know is that red water in a hummingbird feeder is
just sugar. That's right. How do they fly around with
their heart beating at one hundred beats.
Speaker 4 (51:28):
A minute or more?
Speaker 3 (51:30):
I don't remember.
Speaker 4 (51:31):
They have a rapid heartbeat and a lot of energy. Yeah,
they're very small. All just sugar.
Speaker 2 (51:36):
Yeah, well, I mean not strictly. I guess there's some
nectar in there.
Speaker 4 (51:41):
No, it's just when you mix it. Yeah, there's certainly
he's getting.
Speaker 3 (51:46):
I guess a hummingbird feeder only give some stuff that
they shouldn't be eating. That's their nutrients. A perfect flower
that is the shape of a hummingbird beak.
Speaker 1 (51:58):
Nature God make sure at the in and out.
Speaker 3 (52:01):
But I really want that bird to land on my
finger so I can give it a French fry. Well,
well I should we wrap it up before we start shoving.
Speaker 4 (52:12):
Food in our mouth.
