termino and gage. We want to send you off in style.
We wanna welcome you back home.

Speaker 2 (00:28):

Speaker 4 (01:10):
With Karen and Chris? Welcome to Do you need to ride?
This is Chris Fairmans and this is Karen.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
We're leaving my house today.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
In the Antelino Heights, Victorian District. Not really, but I'm
near it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah you are. There's one right there.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yes, yes, there are rundown ones that haven't been maintained
for one hundred years. And there are other ones that
have been meticulously up kept. And that's one of the
One day the house next to it, I was high
in the street playing frisbee. It was a long time ago,
(01:52):
and I was out loud, which is what I do
every time I try weed.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I'm so high right now I have to announce it.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Yeah, And I announced it right as I passed a
bush and there was a cop hiding in it with
holding a battering m.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
And they barged. They broke the door.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Down on the house next to that one wow, and
this guy was yelling like.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
We walked by high as they were breaking into a house.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And I remembered after that that all the people that.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Work down here at the Low Boy and these other
bars were saying there was a guy that was vandalizing
their cars if they parked in front of his house,
and he was a.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Big scary drug dealer.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Oh, and that all hit me as they were breaking in,
And sure enough, a week later the house was all
boarded up, condemned with like caution tape, and then one
day they tore it down and I recorded the tearing
down of the house just so I could have it
in my phone.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Do you still have it?
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I do still have it. Let's hear it. You want
to hear the audio, let's play it. It's only twenty
one minutes long.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
It'll be a great kick off to the episode. Do
you know that? On the same along the same lines.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
And I'm positive I've told the story on this podcast before,
but I was when I lived in San Francisco. My friend, Uh,
was it Don Frasier's house? Was it my friend Laura's house?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
We need Laura's last name.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I can't. It's long Homer. Nope.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It hurts me because she was a great friend and
we hung out constantly because we were a big group
of people that worked at the gap together.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Oh okay, but I was.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Twenty two and I am fifty five, so so many
decades have passed, right, But either way, we would all
hang out at somebody's house and then I walked home
and it would be like a ten block walk of
just like because we were all kind of the same neighborhood.
And on my walk home, we had been getting high
for all evening, so I was real high, and as
(04:03):
I was walking, I was like, sounds like it sounds
like I need a Snickers to me, and so I
dip into a store get a Snicker. So I'm walking
like a five year old down the street eating a Snickers,
like really enjoying myself. And then I look ahead of
me and there's a bike. There's been a bike accident,
and there's cops around, and the cop that's closest to
(04:24):
me turns around and it's my cousin Marty, and so
I'm like, is this really happening or is that just
a cop? And I'm like thinking it's my cousin Marty
because he's also a cop.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And he's like, hey, what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
And I'm like, oh, hey, nothing and eating a candy bar.
And then he looks at me and he kind of
looks in my eyes and he starts laughing. He's like, okay, oh,
then heats fugging. Of course, absolutely knew that I was
stoned out of my mind, just like all right, and
then we just like chat a little bit and I
walked away. It was hilarious, but it was like very
surreal because I might as well have said out loud
(04:55):
I'm so high, because I was just like walking and
eating a a Snickers with a big smile on my face.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
I wish all cops were cousin Marty and they just
saw your high eyes and laughed. I went to my
first I don't know if it was with a psychologist
or a psychiatrist.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Can you real briefly explain the difference to me?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Not really, but my guess, Slash I think I know
is that one has like a one is a doctor
and one has like a license, so one went to
school for however many years you have to go and
actually has the thing which I think is is a psychiatrist.
And then a psychologist can be licensed but doesn't have
(05:41):
to have all that school rights you pills.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Psychiatrists can prescribe your pills.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Okay, that's who I thank you.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I saw a psychiatrist my first ever therapy session. I
immediately cried because she asked about my parents.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Wait, when was this last week?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Chris?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I did not know there was even a situation. I
got new insurance and Kaiser Permanente is texting me every day, Hey,
do you want to come in just to say Hi,
It's right down the street. I have checked, I have
given blood ten times, I mean checked for everything. I'm
just going through it all. I'm getting the cameras everywhere.
(06:22):
I'm loving it great, and they love stuff like.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
That I do.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
I love talking about it, and I won't. I'm just
letting you know that I'm figuring it out.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
And I went.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
I had my first therapy session. It was a pre
therapy session. First over the phone, I talked to the psychiatry,
I guess dispatcher, and they had just had questions before
they connected me with someone in person, which is cool.
And they asked about drugs. They asked about therapy, all
(06:56):
the things my history, and I said, I don't do drugs.
Actually have a briefcase of weed gummies. She's like a briefcase. Well,
they came in a box. It's for my podcast. And
then I betterhelp is also a sponsor of my podcast,
and it's time for me to start doing therapy. And
(07:17):
they said, I'm sorry, but are you with the exactly
right network?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Yes, she knew from the sponsors because of My Favorite Murder.
She's like saying, oh, I know who you are because
of My Favorite Murder. So thanks for talking about me,
because she knew just from that, and she got all excited.
But she hadn't even listened to do you need a ride?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You don't know that on My Favorite Murder? We list
off your problems every week. We just kind of what
Chris is going through lately.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I gotta start listening to podcasts. Thank you, that makes
me feel great.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
You love them? Thank you podcast and.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah follow ups to my animal stories. I'm glad that
you're thank you. Yeah, I feel a supported. And this
woman was so nice great, but new just from that,
just from the sponsors, so she was a hardcore exactly right.
But then I felt like it was a conflict of
(08:14):
interests or something because then I got forwarded to another
person shortly after that.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
But then I went in and sorrow and she was great.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
But if she was just your matchmaker, she wouldn't have
been right away, right.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
No, I think it was after the question about self heart,
have you ever thought about harming yourself? I'm like, of course,
and she's like, okay, I have to transfer you. Oh no, yeah,
I mean I'm not gonna beat around the bush. Otherwise
I won't get these pills, you know, I won't figure
out my anxiety and stuff. I mean, I do want
to be medicated, So things like just looking at your
(08:51):
day planner and the list of things you do gives
me anxiety that lasts twenty four hours. And I don't
want to be that way.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I need more support than that.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I do, and I think it'll have to come from
a chemical level, and I don't need to just pretend
it's the nineteen fifties and that I'm going.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
To and that you have no options.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Right.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So, yeah, because I'm hosting this thing, this weekend. It's
a community arts center in Missoula. They're having an auction
and all these things I have to bring up bands.
It's a day long thing, and just looking at the
list of everything, I'm already very anxious. Sure, and that
doesn't help me. If I had the right chemicals going
(09:37):
on in my brain, I would know that I can
do this and I'd go into it with confidence.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
And that's all stuff that I'm going to figure out.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Well, good to hear, but also I would just like
to say, nervousness and pre performance anxiety is good for you.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
It's served you very well, ye your whole career.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I just saw a clip of you on TikTok where
you did the thing of how many people in here
think what Elon Musk did was a Nazi salute show
vance and that joke is so funny.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh think I It worked as it did because they
just raised their handsome a little higher and then they
all I just wish I had better footage that showed
all their.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Arms straight up.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
Yes, and then I took a picture of them and said, oh,
you're all canceled. It did work, but that was that
was with my I just set up that go Pro
three sixty cameras, so yeah, it just takes footage of
the entire room and then later you can designate what
you're focusing on.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
So it was on me and then the audience.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
But they were in the dark and I had to
show that my phone was out, so it got kind
of confusing, but that is what it did work.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
That was in boise.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
It was funny.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Thank you. And also I wasn't sure if it.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Was your subtlety. I will just point this out for
the joke in the future. You sing, oh, look that
guy's face, you saying, yeah it was I know, yeah,
you had a cartoon guy face.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
He looked exactly like someone and that I'll think of
in a minute, a character actor that is tall with
red hair.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
That I think was Unsinfeld ones.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, that well, he kind of looks like Kramer, but
then he also looks like that irritating comic that used
to bug Jerry Seinfeld and be like, hey, yeah right
Jerry with like the teeth.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yes, yes, yeah, it may have been him.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
It could have been.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Do you not forget that You're like, let me get
my camera or what like, or pulling it out to
take their picture like you've caught them right, gets them
to make that like the reaction they had to you
doing that and catching them was was a big part
of that.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think, right, they're like.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Whoa, and then they get it and there was like
a wave and a second wave.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Yeah, it was something I because I knew I was
getting footage of them and me and the ceiling and
my shoes.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But if I add footage of.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Them all doing that and their reaction, it would have
been perfect. But yeah, in the future, I'll do it again.
Thank you for reminding me.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah, because that order is real good because you're it's
almost like like you've been waiting to catch them right,
It's which is very funny.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Yes, I will do it again. I'm that well, I'm
going to write it down. No, I'll remember it.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You'll remember it. But then also, you're like looking at
a thing. Here's the thing that I think that comedians
are good at that other people maybe their brains don't
work the same way. That brings you that anxiety where
you look at like, okay, I have to do this,
and then you're like looking at it and you're like
(12:48):
in your mind very quickly running through This is a
ten minute set. It's going to go this way, it'll
be earlier in the day, it won't go as well.
Da da dumb, and I have to go over here.
I have to right. So you're assessing what that schedule
tells you your experience is going to be, right, but
you don't actually know what your experience is going to be.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
You're right about that.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
There's just things on it, like tell some jokes here,
and then we have someone from the Salish Kutine tribe
doing land acknowledgment. I'm like, well, I don't want to
tell jokes before that even I just want to earnestly
talk about it and intro it in a respectful way.
So it's dancing around that and the fact that there's
(13:30):
going to be kids there, so it is it's out
of my comfort zone. Anything that isn't drunk adults in
a nightclub setting is going to make me nervous in
a new way. So it's not quite oh I have
to get nervous to go be funny my normal routine.
It's actual like, oh, I could screw this up. I
(13:52):
better not, Yeah, but I won't.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It's going to be fun And you've done a lot
of them at this point, a lot of hosting of things.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
It sounds I guess you're right. I've done this before.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
I've been telling myself I haven't well, you're lying, Yes,
I just haven't mc'ed a show for a while where
you have to cleanse the palette after each comic. It's okay,
it's a season of coffin. You think I don't have
coughs ready to launch. I've been itchy throated for days,
(14:25):
but I'm fine. I've been tested.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Don't worry. I've been to the doctor many times this week. Great,
I'm healthy.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It's great news, Chris.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, it is good news.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
With all the doctor talk I've done on here, it
turns out I've just been paranoid with a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Good, Yes, So.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
I'm doing great and the future is looking bright, incredible.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
So I am going to Montana and then I'm going
to Alaska do comedy, to do comedy in Fairbanks.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Great.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
And then the guy asked, this is in April. The
guy asked if I was related to the guy who
named Fairbanks. And I looked it up, and I am,
that's crazy to me. A person went there, a vice president.
I didn't know anything about them. I looked online it
(15:21):
said Jonathan Fairbanks. That's the only name I know from
the probably shady colonialist Mayflower guy that came from England.
That guy is the same guy as my guy, which,
in a roundabout.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Way, I'm telling you I'm related to a vice president.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
I'm hearing it, I am respecting it.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
I'm just thinking I thought that you told me you
knew you were related to the Fairbanks guy before.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I've been saying I've been saying I am. And it
wasn't until I googled it on an ancestry thing where
they do have oh you got a brief, Yeah, up
to like the seventies. There's nothing about me. It's just
it's now confirmed. And I said, go ahead with the promotion.
(16:09):
I am a family member of the founder of the city.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
And he is indeed putting it on the posters. I yes,
because he thinks it's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It is funny.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Yeah, so thank you Jerry at Alaska Comedy dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Fun Yeah, so that'll be fun. I don't know what
to expect, but I think it's going to be beautiful, YEP.
I expect there will be some fishermen there.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
I would hope that there's a good turnout because there's
maybe not as much. They don't get as much live
performance as.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
They would as a major city.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
What I'm yes, I'm excited about is it's like four
nights of shows. The first ones in a pub, the
next ones in like a nightclub, and then the.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Last two shows are at a theater.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So it's like you work your way up to what
is understood to be the main shows.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
But is it an hour every time? Either way?
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Yeah, And I don't know who my support will be
as far as openers or but I'm going to use
the experience of me. I'm seeing this thing. I won't
be my own opener, put on a little fake mustache
and say and now you're headliner and shuffle around behind
a curtain comedically of course, and come out as myself.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
So do you remember the story that I have from
the nineties where I did that and I ran I
was basically like introduced myself and ran out to what
I thought was the I entered from stage left, which
was a normal backstage, and then there was like a
curtain with an open door on stage right, and so
it was like, I'm I'm going to like here she
(17:52):
is now blah, blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
And I ran out the other door, thinking it was
stage right.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
This seems like something I would do. Did you have
a wig on?
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I felt there was no stage, there was no floor.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I fell down five feet and sprained my ankle and
turned around and propelled myself back up onto the stage
and then had a sprained ankle, and I walked over
to the microphone kind of slow, and there was a
guy in the front who was laughing so hard he
was crying.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
And I look down, I go, did you see.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Me just just fall? And he's like yes, like that.
I'm like, it hurt really bad. And no one else
knew what was going on because I somehow was like
I'm not gonna just and it was a dark room
five feet down filled with folding chairs, so like it
was a crash. It was crazy, and I just somehow
got myself back out of it and was like, the
(18:41):
show must go on.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Wait did you comedically land on a bunch of folding chairs?
Speaker 3 (18:46):
They were like I hit a couple, but they didn't
like injure or like they weren't in the in the
experience very much except for to go like, oh, this
is a fucking room full of folding chairs, and I just.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
And you're a long tailed cat and I have to.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Now do thirty minutes of fucking comedy with a sprained
ankle because I thought I would be cute at the
beginning of this.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Wow, that's like something if Jackie Chan was a comedian.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
It was very cool. Yeah, there's not cool. Oh, wow,
that is insane.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Be careful. I'm just saying you're in a new place.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I did not know that story, by the way.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Oh okay, I could have sworn that would be one
I would have told a bunch of times.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Well, hopefully they have an actual opening act. I think
there will be.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
So you don't have to put on a muscle, right right, good.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Good, Yeah, that would be Although now I kind of
like the idea.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Do a nice pratfall.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
It's fun.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Oh that's so great.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
The weird quarantine zoom shows that we were doing. At
some point I did a news show. It was morning news.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I was on live. I cannot remember why it was.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Do you remember the city?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Oh, you certainly don't, but it wasn't this city.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
So I had to tune in and I was showing them.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
I know. They asked about my apartment, and so I
was showing them.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
I tried to lift the computer to show them some things,
and I tripped over my table and fell and hurt
my hand that had been broken before right there, and.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Knew that I had injured my hand.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
And they were laughing so hard because they didn't know
that I just fell onto a redwood tree burrel like
this jagged table that has.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Been sorry, did they think you were doing a premial thought?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Oh, look at his physical comedy. He's already making us
laugh folks.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
That's I just broke my hand.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Did you? Did you let them believe that? Or you
you have planned?
Speaker 1 (20:56):
It wasn't until that actually was medical, quite painful.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Well, then they questions start coming and I had to
be like, okay, I guess the interview will go on.
It wasn't until after it was all done that I
realized my hand was swollen and I had hurt myself.
And I did let them know after. I'm like, oh,
I broke my hand sort of. I don't know it
was re injured. It is just cartilage holding together everything.
(21:23):
So there goes my boxing career. But it Yeah, it
was very funny to them. People love when you fall down.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
People love when you fall down.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
And I know you're a TikTok person, but have you
seen I think it's like a French art teacher and
there's kids in the room and she falls hard and.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
This kids laugh.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
This kid laughed in a way that sounds like a cartoon.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Mike Woody.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Woodpecker was laughing so hard at her teacher falling, and
then the teacher was laughing so hard at the sound
of this kid's laugh. It's it's hard to describe, but
it's something I've watched ten times. Like if I'm in
a bad mood, I watched teacher fall down, little kid laugh,
and it'll come up nice. It's so hard to find
(22:10):
some of these things. Just by describing the video. You
go to Google. You have to look, this is my
therapeutic video. Where the hell is guy doing baby balloon
prank in front.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Of there's a It's in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
There's some prank person that is doing the Oh, I
have a fake baby. It's a doll and it's connected
to balloons and he's trying to get reactions of a
baby floating up.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You know, I don't like that. I don't like pranks.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
But the guy that he was trying to target as
the victim of the prank was this like it looked
like a shallin like a maybe more what's the cult
from airplane? Where he starts punching at Hira Krishna type
guy who is long hair in a long robe and
(23:07):
he's smoking weeds. So they go to him to get
the reaction, and he just looks at the baby and
he's like that kind of waves it off because he
knows it's dumb, and they takes a toke of this
giant joint and then they keep following him, and then
he throws it in the lap of this like.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
War veteran that is in a wheelchair.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
He just throws a lit joint in the guy's lap,
and the guy doesn't notice. He's just looking at this
guy walking by who's clearly smoking weed in the daytime,
out in public, and then points down and this burning
joint is in the guy's lap and then he takes
it and he smokes on it. It's the most chaotic
video that I've done a terrible job of describing. But
(23:51):
all these things happen back to back, and it's clearly
not set up, and it is the funniest I can
watch it over and over and over and then at
the end it just says smoke weed over day. Whatever
sample from I think a snoop down tongue.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
It's the best.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
If I'm if I need a cheering up, it's a
video I will consult.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I have a I'll describe a video that's good for
cheering up.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
It's my favorite. That's the my favorite podcast segment we do.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
It's do you recognize this viral video that we're describing,
because it's our perspective of the viral video, maybe not
the way you see it. For me, my favorite one
is there's it's somewhere in it's an Asian country and
they're traditional musicians sitting in a circle playing very like
small drum symbol based like very fast paced traditional I
(24:46):
think Chinese, but I could absolutely be wrong. Percussion heavy,
percussion heavy and kind of like if you've ever seen
the movie Raise the Red Lantern, it's like that.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
There's a lot of that. Anyhow, here's point out of nowhere.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
So there's these men that are playing these instruments, all
look like they're retirees, maybe a.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Little bit older.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Out of nowhere, a guy in a frog suit comes
dancing over high speed run run dancing and doing like
shoulders to perfectly to the rhythm of the music and
starts doing this crazy dance. And the more he moves
his big frog head he inside the suit, you can
tell is like his head is here, but the whole
frog head is doing like a different thing. And he
(25:30):
starts doing a dance and it is so funny, and
this frog's head, it is my favorite thing. And there's
a he does it a bunch, So it's like a
guy in a frog suit that kind of just runs
up and does stuff. But it looks like he just
got off it, like standing handing out flyers at like
a different store, right, and then he heard this music
(25:51):
and just ran over to like I gotta be a
part of this kind of energy. It doesn't seem like
the musicians love it at all. Right, it's really really hilarious.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
And it's it only is great because everyone involved probably
didn't know it was being filmed, yeah, or he wasn't
hamming it up for the camera like this this prank video.
That guy knew that it was being filmed. But the
guy walking by with a joint, the guy in the
wheelchair who wanted that joint and who got that and
(26:22):
who got that joint, but took him minute to let
it burn in his crotch before he realized it was there.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
All of those.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Things were not planned, and it's out of nowhere, like
the non sequitur of a guy in a frog costume
suddenly appearing.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yeah, it seems like the person who's videotaping is videotaping
their their husband who is he's met with his traditional
musician friends, and they're all playing a song that ordinarily
would probably be very difficult to dance to. Here comes
the guy in the frog suit who's like, I will
absolutely dance to this song hard, like I will, I
will make it so it looks like I want to watch.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
It right now.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
It turns out that it's the formula, which means, in
order to come up with those videos, we just got
to all walk around recording.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Everything, which which everyone does.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
Yes, yeah, I don't want to do it, but I
do want to see the results, so keep doing it
everybody but me.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Also, I do love when there's one viral because they
are interviewing a ton of people in the street and
then someone like gives an answer that's like smarter than
every other answer, but it's kind of like there's ones
where it's like you can tell. It's like it's like
a young hot guy that's interviewing drunk people passing right
like unless Vegas and then strip in less Vegas, and
(27:42):
he's getting kind of the same answers, like when a
girl does this, you do whatever, and there's like blah
blah blah. But then every once in a while they'll
be like a super drunk girl that says something like
insanely profound, right or you know what I mean. One
of the answers is like, well, if you think about it,
it's like and then you're getting a person who's not
performing for the camera. They're like kind of a modern philosopher.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
They just don't know it and they happen to say
the most perfect thing in that moment. Yeah, yeah, there's
there's the other one where the newsperson.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Hey, how do you stay out of the cold?
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Is that hat your secret? And this lady is like, no,
it's not my secret. I'm mad, I'm late for work.
I'd rather be getting laid on time and often yeah,
and er, she just said the most honest And it's
an older woman.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
That was funniest.
Speaker 4 (28:27):
She's pissed and she's pissed and at the same time
she's hilarious. And I hope it made it onto the news,
but that is it did.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
It's the best.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
That is one of those viral news clips that like
in the early days of YouTube and even pre YouTube,
when people used to comics would pass around VHS videos
right like that. That's been in the books for a
while because it was like nineteen eighty one or something.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Oh was it? Okay? Yeah, that is one of my favorites.
That's all.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
She's so legendary.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yes, I want I want to see a follow up.
How is she now? She's still with us?
Speaker 2 (29:04):
She's still How has she gotten laid? Yes, in the
last fifty years.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I will never forget.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
I had a bunch of older skater friends when I
was like in ninth grade that came over to my
house and my mom was so perfect because I was
like nervous and they're like, oh, oh, it's someone's mom.
And one of my friends was like, oh, are you
getting new carpet because there was like a bound up
(29:38):
carpet that was.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
About to be laid. I guess, and that is what
my mom said.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
She said, oh, yeah, some guys coming over to lay
the carpet, or is someone to come lay me?
Speaker 1 (29:48):
And then she left the room and my friends laughed
so hard. She knew what it would embarrass me, but
from that point forward they were like, your mom is
epically funny, because most moms don't say stuff like that. No, yeah,
it was the best.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We go for a little blue comedy. Yeah it works.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
I do appreciate that both my parents were concerned about
making me look cool at school.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Oh not mine.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah, I I think that.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
Yeah, that's That's the one thing I appreciate the most
is that if there is a parent teacher conference or
I was in trouble or something, that's when my dad
would be like, well, I'm going to cause a scene,
and he'd do a pratfall down the stairs or something,
and then no one was talking about how I was
disruptive in Spanish class anymore, that we're talking about Chris
(30:42):
Fairbanks's crazy dad who pulled his pants up and slid
down all the stairs on his ass and pretended to
be hurt. And then all my friends laughed, and it's like,
I'm not in trouble anymore.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
You need to talk to your therapist about this great
you get on appointment number two?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Yes, yes, my parents always had my back. And then yeah,
she'll be like, well, I'm jealous. I'm like, okay, the
session is over.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Well, you know, let's play it by your Yes.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Yes, I shouldn't go in there with any expectations.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
Let's just see what there is.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Yeah, maybe they'll maybe they'll top me. Do you think
that's good? Sorry, no, I've been the same I was.
I'm glad I feel healthy today, but uh, what a
weekend of sleeping and weird dreams. I haven't had a
classic mid nineties cold in a while, and man it
was fun. Yeah, weird dreams. I was writing stuff down.
(31:42):
Normally I don't remember dreams, but if I'm sick, oh boy,
weird stuff going on in my brain. But now I
feel great.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Did you take a bunch of cold medicine?
Speaker 1 (31:53):
I took that.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I think that's why I feel great. I bombarded my
body with oregano oil and all these and other vitamins,
but a lot of stuff. I just was thrown it
all down, and something's make me feel great. Or it's
a combination of everything I forgot about vitamins.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
I forgot about them for years.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
Well now you're back.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
I'm back. Vitamins.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Get ready. The vitamin has to be eaten by Chris.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
Yes, and yeah even if they are, if they're just
the kind you're supposed to swallow, I'm going to eat
you vitamins. Yeah, crunch City, I don't care if it's
a vitamin C that's bitter.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
But yeah, what else? What's been up with you?
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Let's see since we last spoke. Yes, just work and
this cold which I thought I was going to sleep
off and kind of like, oh, this is fine, I'll
just get through this, and it just kind of isn't
going away and kind of is irritating and a little
(33:00):
bit of a constant thing. Not ideal for podcasting, right,
which is just something I do literally every day of
the week.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
So yeah, I don't know. Other than that.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Oh, we uh went out to Houston's Steakhouse, which was
super fun.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
I mean, I just forget that I really enjoy a steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yeah, it's got a it's got a good vibe to it.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Like a baked potato from a steakhouse.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
Yep, with like kind of the salty jacket, like the
perfect outside.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Yep, I just salty jacket.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It's a little salty jacket all that. Yeah, and it
to me, that's just like you're all set, that's that's
all you need.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Yeah, I haven't been to a steakhouse. It just makes
me think of Texas, which appropriate like that place is
called Houston's. The one place I refuse to go is
Ruth's Chris. What someone plays.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Chris is the type of steak? I look this up
because it also bothered me. Really so it's Ruth's Steakhouse,
but they're specifying that it's Chris Steak, and Chris Steak
is like either a certain it's either the way they
cook it or the way they prepare it or something.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
I thought, if memory serves, Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Was a name of a business. Ruth bought it. But
maybe you're right, maybe it's a type of meat.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I thought, well, you know what, on a least you
want to tie break this thing.
Speaker 4 (34:29):
I mean, but what the point is we all want
it to be ruth Chris's Steakhouse.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Yeah, that's true. We want her name to be Ruth Chris.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Oh, change your name, Ruth.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
The word want.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I don't love to first names people, right, It always
makes me go are you running from a past life.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Yeah, and we're talking about you. Daniel Craig, Hey, we
see you.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
You're not my James Bond.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
No, not my James Bond.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
All right, here we go, Okay.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
Ruth's Chris Steak House got its name when Ruth Fertel,
the founder, purchased a restaurant called Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
I'm sorry, but after.
Speaker 5 (35:07):
I fire forced her to relocate, added her name to
the sign, resulting in the tongue twisting name Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Because of the fire, it should be called Ruth's Crisp.
Come on, come on now, professional.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
So wait a second, the Chris Steakhouse part of the
meat thing is not relevant?
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Well, I want to find out.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Because it could have been called We could both be
right right now?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Right? What if that restaurant.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
It's starting to feel like it's not though, And this
is just me being defensive.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
No, no, it's still possible.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
No. I feel feelings of guilt because I happen to
be right. You won. These are just our childhoods. I
ignore them.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It's all right there, we don't have to ignore them anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
We're adults because yeah, yeah, and I'm sorry, I openly
fist pounded when I notized, right, I.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Would have done the same.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I would have screamed in your face had I set
off your blowhorn.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Oh that Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm not I'm not seeing
anything about That doesn't mean it doesn't mean that it's
not true.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Or I could have.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Okay, So I think that the place I got that
was there was a Ruth Chris in Hawaii, and we
went there and then asked the waiter.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
But maybe the waiter was just full of ship.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Yeah, first day improv.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
It was like the way this a steak that's been
aged this long or dry rubbed.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
Yeah, I really wish and with Ruth Chris is crispy
steakhows and lamb chop joint yes in parentheses, just a
huge heavy sign.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:56):
But yeah, it's been it's been a while since I
went to a steakhouse or had a steak.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Steak is really you're really making a very definitive choice,
and it's not usually a choice that's entirely healthy, right right.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
Yes, And sometimes I'm like I don't want to eat.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Them those guys, right, But then you know, I'm always
struggling with that as a as a as a guy
with a mom that was a vegetarian in the eighties,
and we had magnets of different animals that she monthly
paid to be protected all over our fridge. Wow, we
(37:39):
owned several chickens I never met and there.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
I'll tell you that.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
No, no, they will peck your feet off, but just
as a magnet, you feel like you're doing the right thing.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
And then she went in on a cow with several
other people.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
It wasn't our cow entirely, but I'm assuming it was
a cow that ran free and was given massages and.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Just treated. Well, yeah, in a field somewhere.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
I mean, so they say.
Speaker 4 (38:13):
Which I look exactly. This was the eighties where I
think it was actually happening. She had to do a
lot of research to find I.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Mean, I kind of like that. Your mom was such
an activist. Where do you guys live?
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Yeah, both my mom and dad are from Missoula, Montana.
But then when my sister was born, before I came along,
they spent there in the Monterey Carmel area. My mom
was a telephone operator and was often at protests and
(38:49):
strikes for the phone operators. Lily Tomlin was there and
marched with them. It was around that time because she
did that telephone operator character and.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
They were on strike, like they were unionizing.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Yes, it was about union stuff.
Speaker 4 (39:05):
And then she started knowing the more civil rights type
things and and uh and was actively like she was
a fight the power. That's great, lady, Which is cool
because I have to be reminded of these things because
the mom I.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Grew mom and dad I grew up with.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
My sister remembers more of this because she's six years older,
but she remembers protests, anti establishment mom.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
And I grew up with mom that.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
Worked at city hall as a sewer billing clerk, you know,
because they had to move back to Montana because of.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
My ass that was you yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
You have a kid. You can't be out in the streets.
But the power anymore.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
I thought, you guys lived in Seattle or Portland. Are
up Pacific Northwest?
Speaker 1 (39:52):
No, but it is very close.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
It's one panhandle of Idaho away from Washington. It's just
a half hour through that little piece of Washington. Yeah,
and so we're very My sister has always been in Spokane.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Oh oh ye, who lives there?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Yes, gotcha, that's it.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
And in Seattle is nearby and where I always thought
I would end up.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
I love Seattle.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
It's the best.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
It really is the best. Yeah, it's the cool place.
Speaker 3 (40:24):
You feel like you're in a very different I always
kind of thought, because to me, Oregon feels very California,
just slower and more reasonable.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Yeah, but Seattle feels very different.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
It's both those coastal areas. It's ferns, it's like tropical.
Guess the fact that there's ferns around the ocean and
you don't see that everywhere. It's very wet.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, and it's ancient foresty.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
Yes, yeah, it's so cool. It's my favorite coastal it's
just so different. Not my favorite. We love the southern
California sandy beaches with your okay succulents.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Sure they're all right. Look, but I'll take a.
Speaker 4 (41:09):
Redwood tree and fern gully forest right at the beach.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Hell.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Yeah, that's a bunch of worlds, the best of two
at least.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
And also Empire strikes.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Back exactly, And the goonies don't forget about them, do not.
They never die, goonies, they never say die.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
And also treasure trasure, you have.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
To search for treasure. If you know it's out there.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
There could be a tall ship filled with treasure in
your town if you just paid attention.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
As a child, Karen, did you have a box of treasures?
Speaker 2 (41:45):
I did.
Speaker 1 (41:46):
Was it a pencil box with the found rocks?
Speaker 3 (41:50):
Yes, it was like a carved somebody else's old cigar
box type of thing.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
And I had.
Speaker 3 (41:56):
Here's the first thing that popped in my hand when
you said that, the little centerpiece that you put into
a forty five so you could put it on the
record player.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Yes, the plastic thing. Yes, I'd want a yellow one
of those in there.
Speaker 4 (42:08):
Yeah, those plastic things sometimes they are the biohazard logo.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
Yes, yeah. Rocks. I had a box of rocks. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
Well you find a good rock and you're like, I
need this.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, I have to keep it.
Speaker 4 (42:23):
And my mom was giving me rocks that helped, you know,
digestion and.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
The position and the moon and things like that.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Oh, yes, crystals, polished stones that help you sleep.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Some that did it work? I don't know. I was
too young to know the difference because I never was
without my rocks.
Speaker 4 (42:46):
I always had my rocks. Okay, they were very important
to me.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Where are they now? I need to find these rocks.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
Did I ever tell you about the dream I had
where I went into a thrift store and I looked into,
you know, the glass case at a thrist store where,
like everything else you can shop and touch, but then
there's stuff where they're like, this is worth twenty five dollars.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Yeah, you're in a switchblading. There an old lighter shit, and.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Then it's like a record that no one can get
their hands on. I had a dream once where I
walked into a thrist store and the glass case was
filled with all my stuff that I don't have anymore,
like all this stuff I used to save and then lost.
So I was like, wait, that's mine. Oh, hold on
a second, that's my first Teddy Bear. And like in
the dream, and it doesn't translate now, but in the dream,
(43:29):
I was recognizing things that I used to love and
care about and they were all just there, and.
Speaker 2 (43:34):
I was like, oh my god, I forgot about that thing.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
And it was like over and over and it was
so exciting, and then when I woke up, I was like,
I'm so sad because I can't remember what those things are,
Like I don't know what those are in reality, and
then I would say roughly five years later was the
Christmas where my sister gave me the clay Bell Lady
that she found that was literally one of those things,
(43:57):
like a thing I loved as a kid that just disappeared.
Speaker 1 (44:00):
That's why it was.
Speaker 4 (44:01):
So sweet my birthday party where you were there and
met my sister and she made me that time capsule thing.
There was no one else would fully appreciate, even the
just little candy wrappers and reminders of things, yeah, from
our childhood, but they were all very specific.
Speaker 2 (44:20):
It was so cute. Yeah, it's such such a thoughtful,
lovely guy.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Yeah, yeah, it was. It was. There was a lot
in there that reminded me of my childhood. Yeah, it
was so cool.
Speaker 4 (44:32):
But I do I think that's a normal thing to
have the dream like you described, because I.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
But mine. When I have those dreams, it's things I
didn't really have.
Speaker 4 (44:42):
All the dream about what happened to all the ten
bikes I had in my in the in the garage,
Where are those bikes? And I'd have memories in the
dream of riding these bikes.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
And for some reason, Strawberry.
Speaker 4 (44:56):
Fields is playing very specific where it was in a
dream as a kid, and then you dream about that dream,
and so the things from your childhood, these objects, these
possessions in the middle of a dream you can't remember
until you've woken up for at least ten minutes, if
it's a thing you actually had, or if it's a
(45:17):
thing you've been dreaming about having as a kid in
your kid dreams.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Do you know what I'm saying, I do a little bit.
Speaker 4 (45:23):
Yeah, there are a lot of possessions that I can
vividly describe that are only from dreams.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
I've just had my home.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
It was like, oh, that's that bike I love and
I've ridden in a A lot of.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
Them are bikes, and for some reason I will still
have those dreams just reminders.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Touching on this, I didn't have multiple bikes now. I
had a.
Speaker 4 (45:44):
Banana seat bike. There was rainbow painted and I was embarrassed.
It had a cowboy on the banana seat jumping over
a rainbow. There was just too many rainbows being had
rainbow streamers.
Speaker 2 (45:59):
Yeah, as a girls bike, Yes, it very much was.
Sorry back in that game.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I know it really was. It really was. And I
tried to BMX sit up and add the BMX simple bars,
but it still was that banana bike frame with a gradient.
I mean, now, it would be really cool to have.
Speaker 3 (46:18):
I wonder if your parents put that made it a
cowboy when it actually was like rainbow bright and it
was like a rainbow bright bike.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
Win and fine, uh it was before that toy even
came along.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
We're talking, but I'm.
Speaker 3 (46:32):
Saying like it does, a cowboy rainbow combo doesn't make
a ton of sense.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
I know, especially back then.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
I know.
Speaker 4 (46:39):
That's why I'm going to show you a picture of
it right now, Okay, bike.
Speaker 3 (46:43):
I also had a bananas bike that embarrassed me because
it had It was a very old dumb bike and
it had a bananasy and a gear shift on like
this in this center console you could like change gears
like you were going uphill.
Speaker 1 (47:00):
Okay, that's me laying in a pile of leaves. That
is the bike. So look at that seat.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
And so I added the red BMX wheels smart and
the handlebars just because you know, it had those big
swooping handlebars with the streamers. So I had to be like, okay,
if I'm going to ride this around the neighborhood on Alasia,
have to see this bike.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
Oh there's this is why there's there's something really going
on up here.
Speaker 1 (47:29):
Oh, it's going to be your cousin. Hey, Hey, do
you guys need help?
Speaker 2 (47:34):
It is it a car accident? That's that's actually oh
there is that's bad.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
Yeah, I'm I think, well, no one seems to be panicked,
but there is someone sitting on the back of that
fire department ambulance and it seems like the.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
People in that lane want to get over because I
bet you the crash is in that lane.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I mean, it's a dangerous city. There's just too many cars.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
Yes, there are.
Speaker 4 (48:06):
And when you think about how many people will comment
on a video, why aren't these kids wearing helmets? Yeah,
why aren't figure skaters in the Olympics wearing helmets? Can
we stop talking about helmets? I know I could hit
my head and I am conscious of it. But the
fact that we all normalize that we're in a one
(48:26):
hundred mile on hour metal jagged box hurling towards each
other and that's normal. And then you go to a city.
I'm just saying, I understand.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
All these people.
Speaker 4 (48:38):
Ooh boy, Yeah, that's just a classic slightly more than
a fender bender, But that is a Yes, looks oh,
we got a truck with a missing wheel, and I
think everyone's going to be okay though.
Speaker 3 (48:53):
I mean it looks like it. It's just so unfortunate.
This is like a classic God, I hate a car acident.
They just really suck and I just get immediately so
sad for the people involved. Where it's like that truck
is that man's living and is now what's he going
to do? He has to go to work tomorrow, right,
he has to get that fixed and go to work.
(49:14):
And it's clearly he's probably a gardener with all this
stuff in the back of that truck.
Speaker 2 (49:18):
Right then it's a minivan. Were their kids in there?
Speaker 3 (49:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (49:22):
What? Jesus Christ? What happened?
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (49:25):
Take the wheel, Jesus Christ, get in here and help
us with.
Speaker 4 (49:28):
Jesus Christ, there's a baby on board hopefully not. It
looks like a late model mini van. That means the
kid is off in college right now.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Also, how did that happen?
Speaker 4 (49:41):
It looks like a classic two people turning left or
one person going straight. Someone was turning Yes, that's true,
and I'm guessing you know they went on a yellow yeah,
and it was about to be read Oh, and look
everyone's gone, Oh no, there's the family.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
That's everyone involved. That sucks.
Speaker 4 (50:01):
Sorry, I'm just gonna give an understanding wave. That probably
didn't help anyone. I just want them to know I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (50:10):
Hi, it reveeel so bad.
Speaker 3 (50:11):
Wow, this has been a real Look, this is a
heavy episode. This has been a serious episode at times. Yes,
this has been a medical episode. What else is it about.
Speaker 4 (50:22):
It's always a medical episode with me. Yes, that was
it was. I'm glad we didn't see the chaos because
I think me too. Yeah, of the I saw an
injured person sitting on the edge of the ambulance, I think.
Speaker 1 (50:42):
And yeah, but that.
Speaker 3 (50:45):
The fire truck left, and I feel like if there
was someone really they would have ripped out of there
with like the lights and sirens, right, It wouldn't be
like all right, we'll just sneak out.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
Right, you're right, there was no urgency going on.
Speaker 3 (51:00):
Yeah, So hopefully that means like people are that they
because don't you think that in that moment they have
to really assess people because that after that it's all
like this person could sue that person, you know what
I mean. People they need to know or they're broken bones.
Is anything really happening here?
Speaker 1 (51:15):
Right? And only firemen will show up for that.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (51:19):
In last you're shooting a independent film. I were coming
up on the original location of exactly Right.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (51:26):
And the other night I did one of those don't
tell shows. Those are comedy shows where there.
Speaker 1 (51:32):
It's wildly popular because they list no names of who's
going to be performing. I don't understand, but that's what
people like. They like surprises. Who might it be? H?
And it was in what used.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
To be are exactly right off Yes.
Speaker 4 (51:49):
So there is the exercise place, there's where we used
to drive in there. This business is where I walked in. Okay,
Then in the back there's a green and the walls
were changed and everything, oh good. But it was either
in the old offices, and if I had paid more
(52:09):
attention back then to where the restroom was. I was
going to the restroom, as is my need, and also
just to get a layer of the land. But I
couldn't recognize anything. I think they tore down walls and
put up new ones. But I said, this is where
exactly Right used to be, and everyone called me a liar, ha,
(52:30):
they said, but this has been a salon for years.
Speaker 2 (52:34):
But the salon was in front of us.
Speaker 4 (52:36):
Yes, but I do believe the hallways and everything in
the bathroom were part of the salon now, but at
the time, I believe it has since expanded into what
used to be exactly Right's studio.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
It would make sense because as a studio to rent
it and everything it was too expensive for like.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
Post COVID.
Speaker 3 (52:57):
I don't know, if there's a ton of people who
are like, yeah, I'll get this tiny studio for this
crazy amount and we'll see.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
What we can make. It's like, it's not a good
studio for you know, you couldn't you couldn't really record
music in there.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
Right.
Speaker 3 (53:12):
They were just like kind of a lot of restrictions
for what it was. We were the perfect renters for
the size we were at the.
Speaker 4 (53:19):
Time it was happening, and at the time it was
a perfect space for.
Speaker 2 (53:22):
You emotionally, physically, in every other way.
Speaker 4 (53:27):
I'm glad you never got around to high hanging all
those photos. It was perfect framed podcast album cover art. Yeah, yeah,
I think I was supposed to hang those at one
point if I could find my damn stud finer.
Speaker 1 (53:43):
Oh yeah, but then you moved on. But it was
cool to be in there because I hadn't thought about
it for a while.
Speaker 3 (53:49):
Yeah, that was a fun I remember the first time
we had a staff meeting and it was me and
Danielle and Georgia and Steven and Jay having a staff
meeting together, and I think I said because Danielle was like, well,
here's blah blah blah we're gonna talk about then, I
was like, it might feel weird now, but we need
to do this now because we're gonna have to.
Speaker 2 (54:10):
Do it later.
Speaker 3 (54:12):
We're gonna we're gonna start doing this, and so let's
get used to it now, even though there's only six
of us or five.
Speaker 2 (54:18):
Of us or whatever.
Speaker 1 (54:19):
Yeah, this is the beginning, right.
Speaker 2 (54:23):
I have to use the restaurants, so I want to
go into the store.
Speaker 4 (54:26):
Wow, how the tables have turned since I was prescribed flomax.
Speaker 1 (54:31):
Oh yes, yes, I'm a different man.
Speaker 2 (54:34):
Now you can.
Speaker 3 (54:35):
You can go for a whole podcast, sleep at least
six hours.
Speaker 2 (54:41):
That makes a huge difference. It does that alone.
Speaker 1 (54:44):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (54:44):
What a great ending to this podcast. Yes, some great
medical updates.
Speaker 4 (54:50):
Yes I am I am a happier man because of it.
But in all honesty, I also have to use the bathroom. Great,
it's in six hours, okay, so sometimes and then we're
going to go straight into our next episode.
Speaker 1 (55:06):

Speaker 4 (01:10):
With Karen and Chris? Welcome to Do you need to ride?
This is Chris Fairmans and this is Karen.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
We're leaving my house today.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
In the Antelino Heights, Victorian District. Not really, but I'm
near it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah you are. There's one right there.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Yes, yes, there are rundown ones that haven't been maintained
for one hundred years. And there are other ones that
have been meticulously up kept. And that's one of the
One day the house next to it, I was high
in the street playing frisbee. It was a long time ago,
(01:52):
and I was out loud, which is what I do
every time I try weed.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I'm so high right now I have to announce it.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Yeah, And I announced it right as I passed a
bush and there was a cop hiding in it with
holding a battering m.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
And they barged. They broke the door.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Down on the house next to that one wow, and
this guy was yelling like.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
We walked by high as they were breaking into a house.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And I remembered after that that all the people that.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Work down here at the Low Boy and these other
bars were saying there was a guy that was vandalizing
their cars if they parked in front of his house,
and he was a.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Big scary drug dealer.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Oh, and that all hit me as they were breaking in,
And sure enough, a week later the house was all
boarded up, condemned with like caution tape, and then one
day they tore it down and I recorded the tearing
down of the house just so I could have it
in my phone.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Do you still have it?
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I do still have it. Let's hear it. You want
to hear the audio, let's play it. It's only twenty
one minutes long.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
It'll be a great kick off to the episode. Do
you know that? On the same along the same lines.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
And I'm positive I've told the story on this podcast before,
but I was when I lived in San Francisco. My friend, Uh,
was it Don Frasier's house? Was it my friend Laura's house?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
We need Laura's last name.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
I can't. It's long Homer. Nope.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
It hurts me because she was a great friend and
we hung out constantly because we were a big group
of people that worked at the gap together.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Oh okay, but I was.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
Twenty two and I am fifty five, so so many
decades have passed, right, But either way, we would all
hang out at somebody's house and then I walked home
and it would be like a ten block walk of
just like because we were all kind of the same neighborhood.
And on my walk home, we had been getting high
for all evening, so I was real high, and as
(04:03):
I was walking, I was like, sounds like it sounds
like I need a Snickers to me, and so I
dip into a store get a Snicker. So I'm walking
like a five year old down the street eating a Snickers,
like really enjoying myself. And then I look ahead of
me and there's a bike. There's been a bike accident,
and there's cops around, and the cop that's closest to
(04:24):
me turns around and it's my cousin Marty, and so
I'm like, is this really happening or is that just
a cop? And I'm like thinking it's my cousin Marty
because he's also a cop.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
And he's like, hey, what are you doing?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
And I'm like, oh, hey, nothing and eating a candy bar.
And then he looks at me and he kind of
looks in my eyes and he starts laughing. He's like, okay, oh,
then heats fugging. Of course, absolutely knew that I was
stoned out of my mind, just like all right, and
then we just like chat a little bit and I
walked away. It was hilarious, but it was like very
surreal because I might as well have said out loud
(04:55):
I'm so high, because I was just like walking and
eating a a Snickers with a big smile on my face.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
I wish all cops were cousin Marty and they just
saw your high eyes and laughed. I went to my
first I don't know if it was with a psychologist
or a psychiatrist.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Can you real briefly explain the difference to me?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Not really, but my guess, Slash I think I know
is that one has like a one is a doctor
and one has like a license, so one went to
school for however many years you have to go and
actually has the thing which I think is is a psychiatrist.
And then a psychologist can be licensed but doesn't have
(05:41):
to have all that school rights you pills.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Psychiatrists can prescribe your pills.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Okay, that's who I thank you.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I saw a psychiatrist my first ever therapy session. I
immediately cried because she asked about my parents.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Wait, when was this last week?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Chris?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
I did not know there was even a situation. I
got new insurance and Kaiser Permanente is texting me every day, Hey,
do you want to come in just to say Hi,
It's right down the street. I have checked, I have
given blood ten times, I mean checked for everything. I'm
just going through it all. I'm getting the cameras everywhere.
(06:22):
I'm loving it great, and they love stuff like.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
That I do.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
I love talking about it, and I won't. I'm just
letting you know that I'm figuring it out.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
And I went.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
I had my first therapy session. It was a pre
therapy session. First over the phone, I talked to the psychiatry,
I guess dispatcher, and they had just had questions before
they connected me with someone in person, which is cool.
And they asked about drugs. They asked about therapy, all
(06:56):
the things my history, and I said, I don't do drugs.
Actually have a briefcase of weed gummies. She's like a briefcase. Well,
they came in a box. It's for my podcast. And
then I betterhelp is also a sponsor of my podcast,
and it's time for me to start doing therapy. And
(07:17):
they said, I'm sorry, but are you with the exactly
right network?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
No?
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Yes, she knew from the sponsors because of My Favorite Murder.
She's like saying, oh, I know who you are because
of My Favorite Murder. So thanks for talking about me,
because she knew just from that, and she got all excited.
But she hadn't even listened to do you need a ride?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
You don't know that on My Favorite Murder? We list
off your problems every week. We just kind of what
Chris is going through lately.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I gotta start listening to podcasts. Thank you, that makes
me feel great.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
You love them? Thank you podcast and.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah follow ups to my animal stories. I'm glad that
you're thank you. Yeah, I feel a supported. And this
woman was so nice great, but new just from that,
just from the sponsors, so she was a hardcore exactly right.
But then I felt like it was a conflict of
(08:14):
interests or something because then I got forwarded to another
person shortly after that.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
But then I went in and sorrow and she was great.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
But if she was just your matchmaker, she wouldn't have
been right away, right.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
No, I think it was after the question about self heart,
have you ever thought about harming yourself? I'm like, of course,
and she's like, okay, I have to transfer you. Oh no, yeah,
I mean I'm not gonna beat around the bush. Otherwise
I won't get these pills, you know, I won't figure
out my anxiety and stuff. I mean, I do want
to be medicated, So things like just looking at your
(08:51):
day planner and the list of things you do gives
me anxiety that lasts twenty four hours. And I don't
want to be that way.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I need more support than that.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
I do, and I think it'll have to come from
a chemical level, and I don't need to just pretend
it's the nineteen fifties and that I'm going.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
To and that you have no options.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Right.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
So, yeah, because I'm hosting this thing, this weekend. It's
a community arts center in Missoula. They're having an auction
and all these things I have to bring up bands.
It's a day long thing, and just looking at the
list of everything, I'm already very anxious. Sure, and that
doesn't help me. If I had the right chemicals going
(09:37):
on in my brain, I would know that I can
do this and I'd go into it with confidence.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
And that's all stuff that I'm going to figure out.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Well, good to hear, but also I would just like
to say, nervousness and pre performance anxiety is good for you.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
It's served you very well, ye your whole career.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I just saw a clip of you on TikTok where
you did the thing of how many people in here
think what Elon Musk did was a Nazi salute show
vance and that joke is so funny.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Oh think I It worked as it did because they
just raised their handsome a little higher and then they
all I just wish I had better footage that showed
all their.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Arms straight up.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
Yes, and then I took a picture of them and said, oh,
you're all canceled. It did work, but that was that
was with my I just set up that go Pro
three sixty cameras, so yeah, it just takes footage of
the entire room and then later you can designate what
you're focusing on.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
So it was on me and then the audience.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
But they were in the dark and I had to
show that my phone was out, so it got kind
of confusing, but that is what it did work.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
That was in boise.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
It was funny.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Thank you. And also I wasn't sure if it.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Was your subtlety. I will just point this out for
the joke in the future. You sing, oh, look that
guy's face, you saying, yeah it was I know, yeah,
you had a cartoon guy face.
Speaker 4 (11:11):
He looked exactly like someone and that I'll think of
in a minute, a character actor that is tall with
red hair.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
That I think was Unsinfeld ones.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Yeah, that well, he kind of looks like Kramer, but
then he also looks like that irritating comic that used
to bug Jerry Seinfeld and be like, hey, yeah right
Jerry with like the teeth.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yes, yes, yeah, it may have been him.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
It could have been.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Do you not forget that You're like, let me get
my camera or what like, or pulling it out to
take their picture like you've caught them right, gets them
to make that like the reaction they had to you
doing that and catching them was was a big part
of that.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think, right, they're like.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Whoa, and then they get it and there was like
a wave and a second wave.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Yeah, it was something I because I knew I was
getting footage of them and me and the ceiling and
my shoes.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But if I add footage of.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Them all doing that and their reaction, it would have
been perfect. But yeah, in the future, I'll do it again.
Thank you for reminding me.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah, because that order is real good because you're it's
almost like like you've been waiting to catch them right,
It's which is very funny.
Speaker 4 (12:20):
Yes, I will do it again. I'm that well, I'm
going to write it down. No, I'll remember it.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
You'll remember it. But then also, you're like looking at
a thing. Here's the thing that I think that comedians
are good at that other people maybe their brains don't
work the same way. That brings you that anxiety where
you look at like, okay, I have to do this,
and then you're like looking at it and you're like
(12:48):
in your mind very quickly running through This is a
ten minute set. It's going to go this way, it'll
be earlier in the day, it won't go as well.
Da da dumb, and I have to go over here.
I have to right. So you're assessing what that schedule
tells you your experience is going to be, right, but
you don't actually know what your experience is going to be.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
You're right about that.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
There's just things on it, like tell some jokes here,
and then we have someone from the Salish Kutine tribe
doing land acknowledgment. I'm like, well, I don't want to
tell jokes before that even I just want to earnestly
talk about it and intro it in a respectful way.
So it's dancing around that and the fact that there's
(13:30):
going to be kids there, so it is it's out
of my comfort zone. Anything that isn't drunk adults in
a nightclub setting is going to make me nervous in
a new way. So it's not quite oh I have
to get nervous to go be funny my normal routine.
It's actual like, oh, I could screw this up. I
(13:52):
better not, Yeah, but I won't.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
It's going to be fun And you've done a lot
of them at this point, a lot of hosting of things.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
It sounds I guess you're right. I've done this before.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
I've been telling myself I haven't well, you're lying, Yes,
I just haven't mc'ed a show for a while where
you have to cleanse the palette after each comic. It's okay,
it's a season of coffin. You think I don't have
coughs ready to launch. I've been itchy throated for days,
(14:25):
but I'm fine. I've been tested.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Don't worry. I've been to the doctor many times this week. Great,
I'm healthy.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It's great news, Chris.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, it is good news.
Speaker 4 (14:34):
With all the doctor talk I've done on here, it
turns out I've just been paranoid with a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Well.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Good, Yes, So.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
I'm doing great and the future is looking bright, incredible.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
So I am going to Montana and then I'm going
to Alaska do comedy, to do comedy in Fairbanks.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Great.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
And then the guy asked, this is in April. The
guy asked if I was related to the guy who
named Fairbanks. And I looked it up, and I am,
that's crazy to me. A person went there, a vice president.
I didn't know anything about them. I looked online it
(15:21):
said Jonathan Fairbanks. That's the only name I know from
the probably shady colonialist Mayflower guy that came from England.
That guy is the same guy as my guy, which,
in a roundabout.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Way, I'm telling you I'm related to a vice president.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
I'm hearing it, I am respecting it.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
I'm just thinking I thought that you told me you
knew you were related to the Fairbanks guy before.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I've been saying I've been saying I am. And it
wasn't until I googled it on an ancestry thing where
they do have oh you got a brief, Yeah, up
to like the seventies. There's nothing about me. It's just
it's now confirmed. And I said, go ahead with the promotion.
(16:09):
I am a family member of the founder of the city.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
And he is indeed putting it on the posters. I yes,
because he thinks it's funny.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It is funny.
Speaker 4 (16:20):
Yeah, so thank you Jerry at Alaska Comedy dot com.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Fun Yeah, so that'll be fun. I don't know what
to expect, but I think it's going to be beautiful, YEP.
I expect there will be some fishermen there.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
I would hope that there's a good turnout because there's
maybe not as much. They don't get as much live
performance as.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
They would as a major city.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
What I'm yes, I'm excited about is it's like four
nights of shows. The first ones in a pub, the
next ones in like a nightclub, and then the.
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Last two shows are at a theater.
Speaker 4 (17:00):
So it's like you work your way up to what
is understood to be the main shows.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
But is it an hour every time? Either way?
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Yeah, And I don't know who my support will be
as far as openers or but I'm going to use
the experience of me. I'm seeing this thing. I won't
be my own opener, put on a little fake mustache
and say and now you're headliner and shuffle around behind
a curtain comedically of course, and come out as myself.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
So do you remember the story that I have from
the nineties where I did that and I ran I
was basically like introduced myself and ran out to what
I thought was the I entered from stage left, which
was a normal backstage, and then there was like a
curtain with an open door on stage right, and so
it was like, I'm I'm going to like here she
(17:52):
is now blah, blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
And I ran out the other door, thinking it was
stage right.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
This seems like something I would do. Did you have
a wig on?
Speaker 2 (17:59):
I felt there was no stage, there was no floor.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
I fell down five feet and sprained my ankle and
turned around and propelled myself back up onto the stage
and then had a sprained ankle, and I walked over
to the microphone kind of slow, and there was a
guy in the front who was laughing so hard he
was crying.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
And I look down, I go, did you see.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Me just just fall? And he's like yes, like that.
I'm like, it hurt really bad. And no one else
knew what was going on because I somehow was like
I'm not gonna just and it was a dark room
five feet down filled with folding chairs, so like it
was a crash. It was crazy, and I just somehow
got myself back out of it and was like, the
(18:41):
show must go on.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
Wait did you comedically land on a bunch of folding chairs?
Speaker 3 (18:46):
They were like I hit a couple, but they didn't
like injure or like they weren't in the in the
experience very much except for to go like, oh, this
is a fucking room full of folding chairs, and I just.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
And you're a long tailed cat and I have to.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Now do thirty minutes of fucking comedy with a sprained
ankle because I thought I would be cute at the
beginning of this.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
Wow, that's like something if Jackie Chan was a comedian.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
It was very cool. Yeah, there's not cool. Oh, wow,
that is insane.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Be careful. I'm just saying you're in a new place.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I did not know that story, by the way.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Oh okay, I could have sworn that would be one
I would have told a bunch of times.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Well, hopefully they have an actual opening act. I think
there will be.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
So you don't have to put on a muscle, right right, good.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Good, Yeah, that would be Although now I kind of
like the idea.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Do a nice pratfall.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
It's fun.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
Oh that's so great.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
The weird quarantine zoom shows that we were doing. At
some point I did a news show. It was morning news.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
I was on live. I cannot remember why it was.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Do you remember the city?
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Oh, you certainly don't, but it wasn't this city.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
So I had to tune in and I was showing them.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
I know. They asked about my apartment, and so I
was showing them.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
I tried to lift the computer to show them some things,
and I tripped over my table and fell and hurt
my hand that had been broken before right there, and.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
Knew that I had injured my hand.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
And they were laughing so hard because they didn't know
that I just fell onto a redwood tree burrel like
this jagged table that has.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Been sorry, did they think you were doing a premial thought?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Oh, look at his physical comedy. He's already making us
laugh folks.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
That's I just broke my hand.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
Did you? Did you let them believe that? Or you
you have planned?
Speaker 1 (20:56):
It wasn't until that actually was medical, quite painful.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Well, then they questions start coming and I had to
be like, okay, I guess the interview will go on.
It wasn't until after it was all done that I
realized my hand was swollen and I had hurt myself.
And I did let them know after. I'm like, oh,
I broke my hand sort of. I don't know it
was re injured. It is just cartilage holding together everything.
(21:23):
So there goes my boxing career. But it Yeah, it
was very funny to them. People love when you fall down.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
People love when you fall down.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
And I know you're a TikTok person, but have you
seen I think it's like a French art teacher and
there's kids in the room and she falls hard and.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
This kids laugh.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
This kid laughed in a way that sounds like a cartoon.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Mike Woody.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
Woodpecker was laughing so hard at her teacher falling, and
then the teacher was laughing so hard at the sound
of this kid's laugh. It's it's hard to describe, but
it's something I've watched ten times. Like if I'm in
a bad mood, I watched teacher fall down, little kid laugh,
and it'll come up nice. It's so hard to find
(22:10):
some of these things. Just by describing the video. You
go to Google. You have to look, this is my
therapeutic video. Where the hell is guy doing baby balloon
prank in front.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Of there's a It's in Santa Barbara.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
There's some prank person that is doing the Oh, I
have a fake baby. It's a doll and it's connected
to balloons and he's trying to get reactions of a
baby floating up.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You know, I don't like that. I don't like pranks.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
But the guy that he was trying to target as
the victim of the prank was this like it looked
like a shallin like a maybe more what's the cult
from airplane? Where he starts punching at Hira Krishna type
guy who is long hair in a long robe and
(23:07):
he's smoking weeds. So they go to him to get
the reaction, and he just looks at the baby and
he's like that kind of waves it off because he
knows it's dumb, and they takes a toke of this
giant joint and then they keep following him, and then
he throws it in the lap of this like.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
War veteran that is in a wheelchair.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
He just throws a lit joint in the guy's lap,
and the guy doesn't notice. He's just looking at this
guy walking by who's clearly smoking weed in the daytime,
out in public, and then points down and this burning
joint is in the guy's lap and then he takes
it and he smokes on it. It's the most chaotic
video that I've done a terrible job of describing. But
(23:51):
all these things happen back to back, and it's clearly
not set up, and it is the funniest I can
watch it over and over and over and then at
the end it just says smoke weed over day. Whatever
sample from I think a snoop down tongue.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
It's the best.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
If I'm if I need a cheering up, it's a
video I will consult.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
I have a I'll describe a video that's good for
cheering up.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
It's my favorite. That's the my favorite podcast segment we do.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
It's do you recognize this viral video that we're describing,
because it's our perspective of the viral video, maybe not
the way you see it. For me, my favorite one
is there's it's somewhere in it's an Asian country and
they're traditional musicians sitting in a circle playing very like
small drum symbol based like very fast paced traditional I
(24:46):
think Chinese, but I could absolutely be wrong. Percussion heavy,
percussion heavy and kind of like if you've ever seen
the movie Raise the Red Lantern, it's like that.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
There's a lot of that. Anyhow, here's point out of nowhere.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
So there's these men that are playing these instruments, all
look like they're retirees, maybe a.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Little bit older.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Out of nowhere, a guy in a frog suit comes
dancing over high speed run run dancing and doing like
shoulders to perfectly to the rhythm of the music and
starts doing this crazy dance. And the more he moves
his big frog head he inside the suit, you can
tell is like his head is here, but the whole
frog head is doing like a different thing. And he
(25:30):
starts doing a dance and it is so funny, and
this frog's head, it is my favorite thing. And there's
a he does it a bunch, So it's like a
guy in a frog suit that kind of just runs
up and does stuff. But it looks like he just
got off it, like standing handing out flyers at like
a different store, right, and then he heard this music
(25:51):
and just ran over to like I gotta be a
part of this kind of energy. It doesn't seem like
the musicians love it at all. Right, it's really really hilarious.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
And it's it only is great because everyone involved probably
didn't know it was being filmed, yeah, or he wasn't
hamming it up for the camera like this this prank video.
That guy knew that it was being filmed. But the
guy walking by with a joint, the guy in the
wheelchair who wanted that joint and who got that and
(26:22):
who got that joint, but took him minute to let
it burn in his crotch before he realized it was there.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
All of those.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Things were not planned, and it's out of nowhere, like
the non sequitur of a guy in a frog costume
suddenly appearing.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yeah, it seems like the person who's videotaping is videotaping
their their husband who is he's met with his traditional
musician friends, and they're all playing a song that ordinarily
would probably be very difficult to dance to. Here comes
the guy in the frog suit who's like, I will
absolutely dance to this song hard, like I will, I
will make it so it looks like I want to watch.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
It right now.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
Yeah, it's so funny.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
It turns out that it's the formula, which means, in
order to come up with those videos, we just got
to all walk around recording.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Everything, which which everyone does.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
Yes, yeah, I don't want to do it, but I
do want to see the results, so keep doing it
everybody but me.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Also, I do love when there's one viral because they
are interviewing a ton of people in the street and
then someone like gives an answer that's like smarter than
every other answer, but it's kind of like there's ones
where it's like you can tell. It's like it's like
a young hot guy that's interviewing drunk people passing right
like unless Vegas and then strip in less Vegas, and
(27:42):
he's getting kind of the same answers, like when a
girl does this, you do whatever, and there's like blah
blah blah. But then every once in a while they'll
be like a super drunk girl that says something like
insanely profound, right or you know what I mean. One
of the answers is like, well, if you think about it,
it's like and then you're getting a person who's not
performing for the camera. They're like kind of a modern philosopher.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
They just don't know it and they happen to say
the most perfect thing in that moment. Yeah, yeah, there's
there's the other one where the newsperson.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Hey, how do you stay out of the cold?
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Is that hat your secret? And this lady is like, no,
it's not my secret. I'm mad, I'm late for work.
I'd rather be getting laid on time and often yeah,
and er, she just said the most honest And it's
an older woman.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
That was funniest.
Speaker 4 (28:27):
She's pissed and she's pissed and at the same time
she's hilarious. And I hope it made it onto the news,
but that is it did.
Speaker 1 (28:35):
It's the best.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
That is one of those viral news clips that like
in the early days of YouTube and even pre YouTube,
when people used to comics would pass around VHS videos
right like that. That's been in the books for a
while because it was like nineteen eighty one or something.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Oh was it? Okay? Yeah, that is one of my favorites.
That's all.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
She's so legendary.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yes, I want I want to see a follow up.
How is she now? She's still with us?
Speaker 2 (29:04):
She's still How has she gotten laid? Yes, in the
last fifty years.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I will never forget.
Speaker 4 (29:14):
I had a bunch of older skater friends when I
was like in ninth grade that came over to my
house and my mom was so perfect because I was
like nervous and they're like, oh, oh, it's someone's mom.
And one of my friends was like, oh, are you
getting new carpet because there was like a bound up
(29:38):
carpet that was.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
About to be laid. I guess, and that is what
my mom said.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
She said, oh, yeah, some guys coming over to lay
the carpet, or is someone to come lay me?
Speaker 1 (29:48):
And then she left the room and my friends laughed
so hard. She knew what it would embarrass me, but
from that point forward they were like, your mom is
epically funny, because most moms don't say stuff like that. No, yeah,
it was the best.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
We go for a little blue comedy. Yeah it works.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
I do appreciate that both my parents were concerned about
making me look cool at school.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Oh not mine.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah, I I think that.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
Yeah, that's That's the one thing I appreciate the most
is that if there is a parent teacher conference or
I was in trouble or something, that's when my dad
would be like, well, I'm going to cause a scene,
and he'd do a pratfall down the stairs or something,
and then no one was talking about how I was
disruptive in Spanish class anymore, that we're talking about Chris
(30:42):
Fairbanks's crazy dad who pulled his pants up and slid
down all the stairs on his ass and pretended to
be hurt. And then all my friends laughed, and it's like,
I'm not in trouble anymore.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
You need to talk to your therapist about this great
you get on appointment number two?
Speaker 4 (31:02):
Yes, yes, my parents always had my back. And then yeah,
she'll be like, well, I'm jealous. I'm like, okay, the
session is over.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
Well, you know, let's play it by your Yes.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
Yes, I shouldn't go in there with any expectations.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
Let's just see what there is.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Yeah, maybe they'll maybe they'll top me. Do you think
that's good? Sorry, no, I've been the same I was.
I'm glad I feel healthy today, but uh, what a
weekend of sleeping and weird dreams. I haven't had a
classic mid nineties cold in a while, and man it
was fun. Yeah, weird dreams. I was writing stuff down.
(31:42):
Normally I don't remember dreams, but if I'm sick, oh boy,
weird stuff going on in my brain. But now I
feel great.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Did you take a bunch of cold medicine?
Speaker 1 (31:53):
I took that.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I think that's why I feel great. I bombarded my
body with oregano oil and all these and other vitamins,
but a lot of stuff. I just was thrown it
all down, and something's make me feel great. Or it's
a combination of everything I forgot about vitamins.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
I forgot about them for years.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
Well now you're back.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
I'm back. Vitamins.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Get ready. The vitamin has to be eaten by Chris.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
Yes, and yeah even if they are, if they're just
the kind you're supposed to swallow, I'm going to eat
you vitamins. Yeah, crunch City, I don't care if it's
a vitamin C that's bitter.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
But yeah, what else? What's been up with you?
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Let's see since we last spoke. Yes, just work and
this cold which I thought I was going to sleep
off and kind of like, oh, this is fine, I'll
just get through this, and it just kind of isn't
going away and kind of is irritating and a little
(33:00):
bit of a constant thing. Not ideal for podcasting, right,
which is just something I do literally every day of
the week.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
So yeah, I don't know. Other than that.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Oh, we uh went out to Houston's Steakhouse, which was
super fun.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
I mean, I just forget that I really enjoy a steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yeah, it's got a it's got a good vibe to it.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Like a baked potato from a steakhouse.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
Yep, with like kind of the salty jacket, like the
perfect outside.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Yep, I just salty jacket.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
It's a little salty jacket all that. Yeah, and it
to me, that's just like you're all set, that's that's
all you need.
Speaker 4 (33:44):
Yeah, I haven't been to a steakhouse. It just makes
me think of Texas, which appropriate like that place is
called Houston's. The one place I refuse to go is
Ruth's Chris. What someone plays.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
Chris is the type of steak? I look this up
because it also bothered me. Really so it's Ruth's Steakhouse,
but they're specifying that it's Chris Steak, and Chris Steak
is like either a certain it's either the way they
cook it or the way they prepare it or something.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
I thought, if memory serves, Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Was a name of a business. Ruth bought it. But
maybe you're right, maybe it's a type of meat.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I thought, well, you know what, on a least you
want to tie break this thing.
Speaker 4 (34:29):
I mean, but what the point is we all want
it to be ruth Chris's Steakhouse.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Yeah, that's true. We want her name to be Ruth Chris.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Oh, change your name, Ruth.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
The word want.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
I don't love to first names people, right, It always
makes me go are you running from a past life.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Yeah, and we're talking about you. Daniel Craig, Hey, we
see you.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
You're not my James Bond.
Speaker 4 (34:53):
No, not my James Bond.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
All right, here we go, Okay.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
Ruth's Chris Steak House got its name when Ruth Fertel,
the founder, purchased a restaurant called Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
I'm sorry, but after.
Speaker 5 (35:07):
I fire forced her to relocate, added her name to
the sign, resulting in the tongue twisting name Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Because of the fire, it should be called Ruth's Crisp.
Come on, come on now, professional.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
So wait a second, the Chris Steakhouse part of the
meat thing is not relevant?
Speaker 5 (35:29):
Well, I want to find out.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
Because it could have been called We could both be
right right now?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Right? What if that restaurant.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
It's starting to feel like it's not though, And this
is just me being defensive.
Speaker 2 (35:40):
No, no, it's still possible.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
No. I feel feelings of guilt because I happen to
be right. You won. These are just our childhoods. I
ignore them.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It's all right there, we don't have to ignore them anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
We're adults because yeah, yeah, and I'm sorry, I openly
fist pounded when I notized, right, I.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Would have done the same.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I would have screamed in your face had I set
off your blowhorn.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Oh that Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm not I'm not seeing
anything about That doesn't mean it doesn't mean that it's
not true.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Or I could have.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Okay, So I think that the place I got that
was there was a Ruth Chris in Hawaii, and we
went there and then asked the waiter.
Speaker 2 (36:27):
But maybe the waiter was just full of ship.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Yeah, first day improv.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
It was like the way this a steak that's been
aged this long or dry rubbed.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (36:41):
Yeah, I really wish and with Ruth Chris is crispy
steakhows and lamb chop joint yes in parentheses, just a
huge heavy sign.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:56):
But yeah, it's been it's been a while since I
went to a steakhouse or had a steak.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Steak is really you're really making a very definitive choice,
and it's not usually a choice that's entirely healthy, right right.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
Yes, And sometimes I'm like I don't want to eat.
Speaker 4 (37:16):
Them those guys, right, But then you know, I'm always
struggling with that as a as a as a guy
with a mom that was a vegetarian in the eighties,
and we had magnets of different animals that she monthly
paid to be protected all over our fridge. Wow, we
(37:39):
owned several chickens I never met and there.
Speaker 2 (37:44):
I'll tell you that.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
No, no, they will peck your feet off, but just
as a magnet, you feel like you're doing the right thing.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
And then she went in on a cow with several
other people.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
It wasn't our cow entirely, but I'm assuming it was
a cow that ran free and was given massages and.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Just treated. Well, yeah, in a field somewhere.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
I mean, so they say.
Speaker 4 (38:13):
Which I look exactly. This was the eighties where I
think it was actually happening. She had to do a
lot of research to find I.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Mean, I kind of like that. Your mom was such
an activist. Where do you guys live?
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Yeah, both my mom and dad are from Missoula, Montana.
But then when my sister was born, before I came along,
they spent there in the Monterey Carmel area. My mom
was a telephone operator and was often at protests and
(38:49):
strikes for the phone operators. Lily Tomlin was there and
marched with them. It was around that time because she
did that telephone operator character and.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
They were on strike, like they were unionizing.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Yes, it was about union stuff.
Speaker 4 (39:05):
And then she started knowing the more civil rights type
things and and uh and was actively like she was
a fight the power. That's great, lady, Which is cool
because I have to be reminded of these things because
the mom I.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Grew mom and dad I grew up with.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
My sister remembers more of this because she's six years older,
but she remembers protests, anti establishment mom.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
And I grew up with mom that.
Speaker 4 (39:34):
Worked at city hall as a sewer billing clerk, you know,
because they had to move back to Montana because of.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
My ass that was you yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
You have a kid. You can't be out in the streets.
But the power anymore.
Speaker 3 (39:48):
I thought, you guys lived in Seattle or Portland. Are
up Pacific Northwest?
Speaker 1 (39:52):
No, but it is very close.
Speaker 4 (39:54):
It's one panhandle of Idaho away from Washington. It's just
a half hour through that little piece of Washington. Yeah,
and so we're very My sister has always been in Spokane.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
Oh oh ye, who lives there?
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Yes, gotcha, that's it.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
And in Seattle is nearby and where I always thought
I would end up.
Speaker 2 (40:19):
I love Seattle.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
It's the best.
Speaker 2 (40:21):
It really is the best. Yeah, it's the cool place.
Speaker 3 (40:24):
You feel like you're in a very different I always
kind of thought, because to me, Oregon feels very California,
just slower and more reasonable.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
Yeah, but Seattle feels very different.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
It's both those coastal areas. It's ferns, it's like tropical.
Guess the fact that there's ferns around the ocean and
you don't see that everywhere. It's very wet.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, and it's ancient foresty.
Speaker 4 (40:52):
Yes, yeah, it's so cool. It's my favorite coastal it's
just so different. Not my favorite. We love the southern
California sandy beaches with your okay succulents.
Speaker 1 (41:05):
Sure they're all right. Look, but I'll take a.
Speaker 4 (41:09):
Redwood tree and fern gully forest right at the beach.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (41:14):
Hell.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
Yeah, that's a bunch of worlds, the best of two
at least.
Speaker 2 (41:18):
And also Empire strikes.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
Back exactly, And the goonies don't forget about them, do not.
They never die, goonies, they never say die.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
And also treasure trasure, you have.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
To search for treasure. If you know it's out there.
Speaker 3 (41:35):
There could be a tall ship filled with treasure in
your town if you just paid attention.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
As a child, Karen, did you have a box of treasures?
Speaker 2 (41:45):
I did.
Speaker 1 (41:46):
Was it a pencil box with the found rocks?
Speaker 3 (41:50):
Yes, it was like a carved somebody else's old cigar
box type of thing.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
And I had.
Speaker 3 (41:56):
Here's the first thing that popped in my hand when
you said that, the little centerpiece that you put into
a forty five so you could put it on the
record player.
Speaker 2 (42:04):
Yes, the plastic thing. Yes, I'd want a yellow one
of those in there.
Speaker 4 (42:08):
Yeah, those plastic things sometimes they are the biohazard logo.
Speaker 1 (42:13):
Yes, yeah. Rocks. I had a box of rocks. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
Well you find a good rock and you're like, I
need this.
Speaker 1 (42:22):
Yeah, I have to keep it.
Speaker 4 (42:23):
And my mom was giving me rocks that helped, you know,
digestion and.
Speaker 1 (42:29):
The position and the moon and things like that.
Speaker 4 (42:32):
Oh, yes, crystals, polished stones that help you sleep.
Speaker 1 (42:38):
Some that did it work? I don't know. I was
too young to know the difference because I never was
without my rocks.
Speaker 4 (42:46):
I always had my rocks. Okay, they were very important
to me.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
Where are they now? I need to find these rocks.
Speaker 3 (42:55):
Did I ever tell you about the dream I had
where I went into a thrift store and I looked into,
you know, the glass case at a thrist store where,
like everything else you can shop and touch, but then
there's stuff where they're like, this is worth twenty five dollars.
Speaker 1 (43:06):
Yeah, you're in a switchblading. There an old lighter shit, and.
Speaker 3 (43:09):
Then it's like a record that no one can get
their hands on. I had a dream once where I
walked into a thrist store and the glass case was
filled with all my stuff that I don't have anymore,
like all this stuff I used to save and then lost.
So I was like, wait, that's mine. Oh, hold on
a second, that's my first Teddy Bear. And like in
the dream, and it doesn't translate now, but in the dream,
(43:29):
I was recognizing things that I used to love and
care about and they were all just there, and.
Speaker 2 (43:34):
I was like, oh my god, I forgot about that thing.
Speaker 3 (43:37):
And it was like over and over and it was
so exciting, and then when I woke up, I was like,
I'm so sad because I can't remember what those things are,
Like I don't know what those are in reality, and
then I would say roughly five years later was the
Christmas where my sister gave me the clay Bell Lady
that she found that was literally one of those things,
(43:57):
like a thing I loved as a kid that just disappeared.
Speaker 1 (44:00):
That's why it was.
Speaker 4 (44:01):
So sweet my birthday party where you were there and
met my sister and she made me that time capsule thing.
There was no one else would fully appreciate, even the
just little candy wrappers and reminders of things, yeah, from
our childhood, but they were all very specific.
Speaker 2 (44:20):
It was so cute. Yeah, it's such such a thoughtful,
lovely guy.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
Yeah, yeah, it was. It was. There was a lot
in there that reminded me of my childhood. Yeah, it
was so cool.
Speaker 4 (44:32):
But I do I think that's a normal thing to
have the dream like you described, because I.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
But mine. When I have those dreams, it's things I
didn't really have.
Speaker 4 (44:42):
All the dream about what happened to all the ten
bikes I had in my in the in the garage,
Where are those bikes? And I'd have memories in the
dream of riding these bikes.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
And for some reason, Strawberry.
Speaker 4 (44:56):
Fields is playing very specific where it was in a
dream as a kid, and then you dream about that dream,
and so the things from your childhood, these objects, these
possessions in the middle of a dream you can't remember
until you've woken up for at least ten minutes, if
it's a thing you actually had, or if it's a
(45:17):
thing you've been dreaming about having as a kid in
your kid dreams.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Do you know what I'm saying, I do a little bit.
Speaker 4 (45:23):
Yeah, there are a lot of possessions that I can
vividly describe that are only from dreams.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
I've just had my home.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
It was like, oh, that's that bike I love and
I've ridden in a A lot of.
Speaker 4 (45:34):
Them are bikes, and for some reason I will still
have those dreams just reminders.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Touching on this, I didn't have multiple bikes now. I
had a.
Speaker 4 (45:44):
Banana seat bike. There was rainbow painted and I was embarrassed.
It had a cowboy on the banana seat jumping over
a rainbow. There was just too many rainbows being had
rainbow streamers.
Speaker 2 (45:59):
Yeah, as a girls bike, Yes, it very much was.
Sorry back in that game.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I know it really was. It really was. And I
tried to BMX sit up and add the BMX simple bars,
but it still was that banana bike frame with a gradient.
I mean, now, it would be really cool to have.
Speaker 3 (46:18):
I wonder if your parents put that made it a
cowboy when it actually was like rainbow bright and it
was like a rainbow bright bike.
Speaker 4 (46:25):
Win and fine, uh it was before that toy even
came along.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
We're talking, but I'm.
Speaker 3 (46:32):
Saying like it does, a cowboy rainbow combo doesn't make
a ton of sense.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
I know, especially back then.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
I know.
Speaker 4 (46:39):
That's why I'm going to show you a picture of
it right now, Okay, bike.
Speaker 3 (46:43):
I also had a bananas bike that embarrassed me because
it had It was a very old dumb bike and
it had a bananasy and a gear shift on like
this in this center console you could like change gears
like you were going uphill.
Speaker 1 (47:00):
Okay, that's me laying in a pile of leaves. That
is the bike. So look at that seat.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
And so I added the red BMX wheels smart and
the handlebars just because you know, it had those big
swooping handlebars with the streamers. So I had to be like, okay,
if I'm going to ride this around the neighborhood on Alasia,
have to see this bike.
Speaker 1 (47:22):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (47:24):
Oh there's this is why there's there's something really going
on up here.
Speaker 1 (47:29):
Oh, it's going to be your cousin. Hey, Hey, do
you guys need help?
Speaker 2 (47:34):
It is it a car accident? That's that's actually oh
there is that's bad.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
Yeah, I'm I think, well, no one seems to be panicked,
but there is someone sitting on the back of that
fire department ambulance and it seems like the.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
People in that lane want to get over because I
bet you the crash is in that lane.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I mean, it's a dangerous city. There's just too many cars.
Speaker 2 (48:05):
Yes, there are.
Speaker 4 (48:06):
And when you think about how many people will comment
on a video, why aren't these kids wearing helmets? Yeah,
why aren't figure skaters in the Olympics wearing helmets? Can
we stop talking about helmets? I know I could hit
my head and I am conscious of it. But the
fact that we all normalize that we're in a one
(48:26):
hundred mile on hour metal jagged box hurling towards each
other and that's normal. And then you go to a city.
I'm just saying, I understand.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
All these people.
Speaker 4 (48:38):
Ooh boy, Yeah, that's just a classic slightly more than
a fender bender, But that is a Yes, looks oh,
we got a truck with a missing wheel, and I
think everyone's going to be okay though.
Speaker 3 (48:53):
I mean it looks like it. It's just so unfortunate.
This is like a classic God, I hate a car acident.
They just really suck and I just get immediately so
sad for the people involved. Where it's like that truck
is that man's living and is now what's he going
to do? He has to go to work tomorrow, right,
he has to get that fixed and go to work.
(49:14):
And it's clearly he's probably a gardener with all this
stuff in the back of that truck.
Speaker 2 (49:18):
Right then it's a minivan. Were their kids in there?
Speaker 3 (49:22):
Like?
Speaker 2 (49:22):
What? Jesus Christ? What happened?
Speaker 1 (49:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (49:25):
Take the wheel, Jesus Christ, get in here and help
us with.
Speaker 4 (49:28):
Jesus Christ, there's a baby on board hopefully not. It
looks like a late model mini van. That means the
kid is off in college right now.
Speaker 2 (49:37):
Also, how did that happen?
Speaker 4 (49:41):
It looks like a classic two people turning left or
one person going straight. Someone was turning Yes, that's true,
and I'm guessing you know they went on a yellow yeah,
and it was about to be read Oh, and look
everyone's gone, Oh no, there's the family.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
That's everyone involved. That sucks.
Speaker 4 (50:01):
Sorry, I'm just gonna give an understanding wave. That probably
didn't help anyone. I just want them to know I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (50:10):
Hi, it reveeel so bad.
Speaker 3 (50:11):
Wow, this has been a real Look, this is a
heavy episode. This has been a serious episode at times. Yes,
this has been a medical episode. What else is it about.
Speaker 4 (50:22):
It's always a medical episode with me. Yes, that was
it was. I'm glad we didn't see the chaos because
I think me too. Yeah, of the I saw an
injured person sitting on the edge of the ambulance, I think.
Speaker 1 (50:42):
And yeah, but that.
Speaker 3 (50:45):
The fire truck left, and I feel like if there
was someone really they would have ripped out of there
with like the lights and sirens, right, It wouldn't be
like all right, we'll just sneak out.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
Right, you're right, there was no urgency going on.
Speaker 3 (51:00):
Yeah, So hopefully that means like people are that they
because don't you think that in that moment they have
to really assess people because that after that it's all
like this person could sue that person, you know what
I mean. People they need to know or they're broken bones.
Is anything really happening here?
Speaker 1 (51:15):
Right? And only firemen will show up for that.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (51:19):
In last you're shooting a independent film. I were coming
up on the original location of exactly Right.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (51:26):
And the other night I did one of those don't
tell shows. Those are comedy shows where there.
Speaker 1 (51:32):
It's wildly popular because they list no names of who's
going to be performing. I don't understand, but that's what
people like. They like surprises. Who might it be? H?
And it was in what used.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
To be are exactly right off Yes.
Speaker 4 (51:49):
So there is the exercise place, there's where we used
to drive in there. This business is where I walked in. Okay,
Then in the back there's a green and the walls
were changed and everything, oh good. But it was either
in the old offices, and if I had paid more
(52:09):
attention back then to where the restroom was. I was
going to the restroom, as is my need, and also
just to get a layer of the land. But I
couldn't recognize anything. I think they tore down walls and
put up new ones. But I said, this is where
exactly Right used to be, and everyone called me a liar, ha,
(52:30):
they said, but this has been a salon for years.
Speaker 2 (52:34):
But the salon was in front of us.
Speaker 4 (52:36):
Yes, but I do believe the hallways and everything in
the bathroom were part of the salon now, but at
the time, I believe it has since expanded into what
used to be exactly Right's studio.
Speaker 3 (52:49):
It would make sense because as a studio to rent
it and everything it was too expensive for like.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
Post COVID.
Speaker 3 (52:57):
I don't know, if there's a ton of people who
are like, yeah, I'll get this tiny studio for this
crazy amount and we'll see.
Speaker 2 (53:03):
What we can make. It's like, it's not a good
studio for you know, you couldn't you couldn't really record
music in there.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
Right.
Speaker 3 (53:12):
They were just like kind of a lot of restrictions
for what it was. We were the perfect renters for
the size we were at the.
Speaker 4 (53:19):
Time it was happening, and at the time it was
a perfect space for.
Speaker 2 (53:22):
You emotionally, physically, in every other way.
Speaker 4 (53:27):
I'm glad you never got around to high hanging all
those photos. It was perfect framed podcast album cover art. Yeah, yeah,
I think I was supposed to hang those at one
point if I could find my damn stud finer.
Speaker 1 (53:43):
Oh yeah, but then you moved on. But it was
cool to be in there because I hadn't thought about
it for a while.
Speaker 3 (53:49):
Yeah, that was a fun I remember the first time
we had a staff meeting and it was me and
Danielle and Georgia and Steven and Jay having a staff
meeting together, and I think I said because Danielle was like, well,
here's blah blah blah we're gonna talk about then, I
was like, it might feel weird now, but we need
to do this now because we're gonna have to.
Speaker 2 (54:10):
Do it later.
Speaker 3 (54:12):
We're gonna we're gonna start doing this, and so let's
get used to it now, even though there's only six
of us or five.
Speaker 2 (54:18):
Of us or whatever.
Speaker 1 (54:19):
Yeah, this is the beginning, right.
Speaker 2 (54:23):
I have to use the restaurants, so I want to
go into the store.
Speaker 4 (54:26):
Wow, how the tables have turned since I was prescribed flomax.
Speaker 1 (54:31):
Oh yes, yes, I'm a different man.
Speaker 2 (54:34):
Now you can.
Speaker 3 (54:35):
You can go for a whole podcast, sleep at least
six hours.
Speaker 2 (54:41):
That makes a huge difference. It does that alone.
Speaker 1 (54:44):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (54:44):
What a great ending to this podcast. Yes, some great
medical updates.
Speaker 4 (54:50):
Yes I am I am a happier man because of it.
But in all honesty, I also have to use the bathroom. Great,
it's in six hours, okay, so sometimes and then we're
going to go straight into our next episode.
