So I guess let's talk about thecourt case for five minutes.
I don't want to give this no noI don't want to give it I don't
want to get into it too much.

SPEAKER_11 (05:50):
But yeah we had to go to court case over so we had
to go to TikTok court uh JudgeJudy presiding uh I wish we had
judge Joe Mathis.

SPEAKER_08 (06:00):

told that other lady that shecould she couldn't call you uh
what what happened there?

SPEAKER_11 (06:10):
I mean that's oh that was Judge Joe Brown not
Judge Mathis sorry that wasJudge Joe Brown.

SPEAKER_06 (06:16):
No but I mean that's exactly what happened I sent a
personal text to a lady in Texaswho I knew from TikTok she
shared that personal text withthe person I was talking about
while they were allegedly in thehospital allegedly having a
stroke and those two proceededfor the next two to three weeks

(06:39):
to try to destroy my entire lifeit turned into a whole thing
like in they were con theycontacted the employer they were
like I mean it just gotridiculous lying in court and I
don't care what anybody says Iwatched you perjure yourself
because I know the truth and Iwatched you lie to a judge.

SPEAKER_11 (07:01):
So you perjured yourselves congratulations I'm
not saying whatever you can comeafter me.
Defamation slander those thingsyou it has to be done with mil
int ill intent and it has to belies and that's none of these
things they committed slander ahundred percent they're I mean
not slander they committedperjury is what happened.

SPEAKER_06 (07:20):
In court and then defamation but I'm just saying
it flat out in terms of youperjured yourself in front of a
judge that they lied they liedright are they perjuring
themselves once but this ladyhas filed two peace orders on me
in the state of Maryland she'staking advantage of the

(07:45):
loopholes in the court system.
They call it the midnightloophole yeah I mean like
several people in county courtadmin down in Maryland people
who know the system sheriffshave told me the same thing it's
a loophole and petty ass bitchesuse the loophole to get people

(08:08):
in the system so that they cansay I got a peace order on
somebody well the peace orderonly applies if I've threatened
physical harm to you or harassedyou I didn't either the judge
has already said it very plainand clear.

SPEAKER_11 (08:27):
He said do not bring this into my courtroom again I
got real crimes out here I'mworried about people are
shooting each other people arestealing things people are doing
drugs people are killing eachother and you're out here
bringing TikTok in the courtfucked up dude fucked up I know
and the fucking bitch is justmad because I caught her in a

(08:49):
lie.

SPEAKER_06 (08:50):
Like she's lying about her health and I was able
to see that because I can seewhen people are lying like I'm
just good at it.

SPEAKER_11 (08:59):
I can't help that I'm good at detecting lies like
but that's all these internetgrifters are good for anyhow so
it's easy to spot them.

SPEAKER_06 (09:09):
Right and that's what that's exactly it.
So yeah like did it put aroadblock in my life that I now
have to address yes I you knowthere's lawyers involved now and
my employers involved and allthe things right so did it put a
roadblock in my life absolutelyit slowed me down on getting

(09:29):
some shit done it's a pain inthe ass that's what it is but
that's it's a pain in the assthat I she didn't hurt me in any
way shape or form.
Right I still have my job Istill have my real life things
and commitments and friends noneof the people who actually know
me or care about me wereimpacted at all.

(09:50):
Anybody who fucking wascontacted by her knows she's a
liar but I want to bring somefun and funny to this because
you've seen her TikTok videosright you see the filters that
she uses right so this is me.
I have no filter on right nowthis is just me hair and makeup
and a ring light that's it thisis what I look like in real life

(10:12):
right my TikToks are heavilymakeup but you can tell it's me.
This when you when you so sheshowed up at the last piece
hearing um let me just take itso let me take us over here
because let me take us over hereand tell you about this girl.

SPEAKER_11 (10:33):
Nah seriously though um let me tell you it was like I
said like she said I seen peopleuse filters I seen people make
themselves look skinny when theywere fat.
I mean seem people seem they fixtheir teeth, fix their eyes, fix
whatever goofy thing they gotgoing with them but I don't care

(10:53):
I mean I could give a fuck Idon't give a shit.
But like this per I wasunrecognizable.
Like I mean you would never ifyou said match these people up
like a guess who game you'dnever put the two of them
together because it's socompletely off base from what
you're fucking looking at.
And then what did you say so shebasically showed up to court

(11:17):
like on camera but like thegolden steak killer right I well
I thought they were going towheel her in a little sympathy
photo shout out Joe D'AngeloGolden Steak killer how they
wheeled him in to make him looksickly.
Meanwhile he's been fine priorto that and everybody said that

(11:37):
but then like you got to get theyou get the sympathy photo and I
thought that's what they weregoing to try to do.
And uh but I mean she stilltried to get it it was so biz it
was one of the most bizarrecourt proceedings I've ever been
a part of and I've been a partof some proceedings.
Let me tell you this guy's beenthe court don't let it fool you
I don't hide about my pastcountless arrest countless court

(12:01):
cases in and out I get it I'veseen and not only that but I've
sat as being you know when yougo to court you got to sit
through everybody else's shit.
So like I've heard it all I'vebeen to court I've heard so many
crazy stories but nothingcompares.
I wish I could have had her likebeen inside the judge's head to
be like you're not gonna fuckingbelieve it we got TikTok court

(12:24):
over here.

SPEAKER_06 (12:26):
It's so embarrassing to my it is embarrassing.
As a person with a career andlike adult goals and a business
somebody like I'm not knockingdisability because I understand
why there are people ondisability but these fucking
slug ass job of the hut keyboardfucking warriors who like I

(12:49):
don't even know what she thoughtshe was going to get out of
this.
She all she did was like cost mea little bit of money which is
going to cost her money in thelong run, right?
Well I mean it's not becauseshe's never gonna pay it people
that you see that don't have tobe she has been having money she
doesn't have she was with herparents she's claiming she's
been working she hasn't workedfor our company she said she

(13:12):
worked for our company for 18years.

SPEAKER_11 (13:14):
Meanwhile we know for a fact that is absolutely
unequivocally 100% not truenever did not going to doesn't
now right and she like sayingthat like no you are a 40
something year old woman wholooks like she's 73 that lives

(13:35):
with your mom or whoever likewith you like it's just a
bizarre thing and then to sitthere and act do this whole act
on K it's it's bizarre.
And the bitch bizarre it'ssomething you see on a Netflix
documentary where you're likewhat the fuck who would even do
this guy that pretended he wasBritish remember he came into

(13:59):
court and he had oxygen oh yeahthat was a wild documentary what
would Daniel somebody he likepretended that oh d you go after
me that I don't even rememberwhat he was doing like it was so
bizarre.
These are the type of peoplewe're talking about though this

(14:20):
is the level of insanity thatwe're talking about this could
very easily be switched out forone of these like it never got
it never turned into anythingthat crazy like you know what I
mean like this guy where he waslike involved in this whole like
criminal thing but like this isjust small time potatoes but
this is the level of crazy thatwe're talking about like it's

(14:40):
yeah all of these people it'sthis it's that woman on TikTok I
mean the TikTok religion mommember that was like listening
to that lady it's these are thelevel of crazies and the the
internet just brings them outman TikTok social media it
brings them out because theymake a some connections before
these people you turn them loosein the world they can't make a

(15:01):
connection because they'refucking weird and everybody
knows it.

SPEAKER_06 (15:04):
That's exactly it you have no friends in real life
you meet some people online youpresent a false version of
yourself that looks differenthas a different life because in
her different life she comesfrom a big Arab family bitch you
live with your white mom andyour white stepdad you don't
live with no fucking big Arabfamily she lies about

(15:25):
everything.
But the worst part about it isyou got these other people like
Lena the fucking bitch in Texasthat bitch is a master
manipulator like this andfucking pulls their strings and
tells them what to do.
The Amanda fucking said twice intwo different posts about me
that she was reading from ascript.

(15:47):
Bitch if you're reading from ascript who are you fucking
conspiring with it's crazy.
They're fucking crazy.
They're crazy but it does so thebut ultimately they thought that
they were gonna hurt me whatthey actually did was light a
fire on me to write legislation.

(16:08):
So now not only am I gonna getthe law in Maryland changed so
this bitch can't go down andfucking file on a weekend for no
reason with no proof but I'malso going to change the laws on
how you're on doxing people.
I'm going to find attorneys whoare willing to back me and I

(16:29):
will get it written.
That's what they did.
They fucking made it worse onthemselves.

SPEAKER_11 (16:34):
No I agree.
Um yeah and that's the otherthing too is these crazy people
always have people like thathelp them but there's a people
that are but she'll never get inany trouble because that's the
beauty of these people is theyknow how to manipulate other
people into doing their dirt.

SPEAKER_06 (16:48):
Oh she'll get in trouble when I found charges in
Pennsylvania.
She's gonna get in trouble forat least defamation and
electronic harassment all rightwell so that put a big kind of
thing and that started onSeptember 4th right and then in
between there you had a toothemergency that turned into a
valga and fear month long thingthat I'm still dealing with but

little snacks in there I justpicture in there with like a
little pack of like airportpeanuts waiting patiently
waiting for Ridge to return likeit that's a whole thing it's

(25:20):
hilarious to even think aboutthat and people to probably
people that don't know likepeople don't have any idea like
but like to our comedy friendsthe idea of like Ridge having
like her in his car like and itwas just a hilarious situation.
Hilarious and then he like walksinto the venue and he's like

(25:43):
there's another comic with me umyou know just saying um sh she
can do a couple minutes ifnobody minds if nobody minds
Ridge if nobody minds Ridge ifyou would have led with the fact
that she was there we might havesold some tickets exactly it now
we know she's coming she was notexpected to be known that she is

(26:11):
one of the funniest comedians inAmerica right now for grocery
planned yeah I know it just wasa timing thing it worked out but
it was always fun to have her onthe show.

(26:35):
Literally hands down and I'msorry to any female that listens
to me who I've heard and andtalk to one of my favorite
female comics is G Dubs right GWNell but my absolute hands down
favorite female comic and maybemy favorite rookie comic right

(26:55):
now of everywhere is ChristinaMariani.

SPEAKER_11 (26:58):
Hands I wouldn't call her rookie she's an
experienced veteran.
I mean she's a rookie as arookie in the big world in the
big world because she plays withthe big dogs she plays with the
big dogs she ain't down here onour level we're just compared to
us we are we are ticks on ifshe's a dog if she's a dog we
are the ticks that are attachedto her behind her ear like she's

(27:23):
running with the big dogs dudeobviously she's been on the Kill
Tony panel forget performeranybody can be a performer but
to be invited to be a member ofthe panel yeah I mean like that
we're talking she's big timedude she's selling out places
all over the country it'samazing to it's an honor to be

(27:43):
able to perform with her anhonor.

SPEAKER_06 (27:45):
Absolutely and what's even funnier is and cute
and I love is to see the fansright so there was a couple kids
fangirling in the audiencebecause oh yeah who she was
that's such a big get likeyou're just sitting at a comedy
show where you know that there'sgonna be three random white
dudes that you never heard ofand then all of a sudden

(28:06):
somebody that you've seen onKill T to be fair Andreas isn't
white I mean he's white but he'snot white that's true and I've
seen Andreas perform before andI always thought he was funny
but he was bringing you comingto the you look like your
meaning is the best line I'm theowner here keep on talking to a

(28:45):
line took it he took yeah he wasI I I absolutely hands down
that's like you said I've seenhim before it opened mics and
stuff never did it justice.
He's a killer it was so good andhis crowd work is impeccable.

(29:06):
I love yeah he had a great timethey had a great time yeah they
did they did so yeah and that'swhat I think a lot of the
up-and-coming comics have torealize is that the kids that
are going to shows today theycut their teeth on Matt Rafe.
They're expecting some playbackthey might not get roasted but
they're expecting some give andtake like it's a conversation

(29:27):
and I think you guys have tokind of keep that in the back of
your mind when you're doingthese shows especially if
there's a younger crowd.

SPEAKER_11 (29:33):
I mean that's a that's a fair point but I
disagree but sure.
Where were we going with that?
But yeah that was a great showlet me tell you what those wings
though I'm about to go back upthe raindropper just for wings
just for wings 10 bucks a dozenand they were delicious.
They were so crispy so fresh sogood so fresh and so clean yes

(29:59):
I've been

SPEAKER_06 (30:00):
A good crispy, like nippy wing, right?

SPEAKER_11 (30:05):
Just a regular wing.
We're not looking, it's notrocket science here.
Like just a good regular wing,because so many play.
Here's my thing is it should behot and crisp enough to
maintain, even though it hassauce on it, it should still
maintain the integrity of thatcrispiness if done correctly.
And these were absolutely were.
They were money in the bank.

(30:28):
I'm thinking about it.
My belly's getting happy.

SPEAKER_06 (30:30):
Well, you have pizza party to do later.

SPEAKER_11 (30:33):
I do have a pizza party.

SPEAKER_06 (30:36):
So um, yeah, I like, but again, and I I cannot
express this enough with everyshow that we've been involved
with, whether it's as a guest oruh you as a performer or one
that we've done, I cannot sayenough about middle of nowhere
Pennsylvania places.

(30:57):
I can't.

SPEAKER_11 (30:57):
The people are they show up and they show out, dude.
They show up and they show outlike people come out, dude.
It's amazing to me the peoplethat are willing to go see live
comedy at places that it's notlike we're in the city and it's
like at the improv or at thecomedy club or whatever.

(31:18):
No.
We're talking about you're in anAmerican Legion in the middle of
fucking nowhere, Pennsylvania.

SPEAKER_06 (31:23):
Right.

SPEAKER_11 (31:24):
Ripping.

SPEAKER_06 (31:25):
Ripping.
Right, right.
And they love it.
They invited it.

SPEAKER_11 (31:29):
And they love it.
They love it.
They love it.
They eat it up.
They really do.

SPEAKER_06 (31:33):
To be fair, Saturday, you were competing
with the Penn State game,though.

SPEAKER_11 (31:38):
Well, I mean, that certainly had an impact on the
but I mean we drawing 30 peopleat a bar in the middle of
Pennsylvania on the whiteoutgame on a Saturday night.
That ain't bad.
With a couple of guys, nooffense to Andreas or Ridge.
I don't mean, but with threeno-name people.
You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_06 (31:56):
Like relatively unknown, right.

SPEAKER_11 (31:58):
Yeah, well, I'm not knocking them, I'm not saying
that, and they do have a good,like, little thing, but I'm just
talking about like nobody'slike, oh my God, like I'm you
know what I mean?
Like those people there, most ofthe people in Marion Center have
no clue who Andreas Hovorg,Ridge, Herzberger, and Scott
Reed are.
I mean, they just unless they'vereally seen something before and
they're in the comedy scene,they don't know who those people

(32:20):
are.

SPEAKER_06 (32:21):
Yeah, I agree.

SPEAKER_11 (32:24):
But they still turned out because they knew it
was good local comedy.
They knew that the raindrop putson good shows.

SPEAKER_06 (32:30):
Right.
So they had a little face.

SPEAKER_11 (32:34):
They had a little face, yeah.
And lucky for them, all thepeople involved, it was a great
show.
I mean, I like I enjoyed thetempo of the show.
It was like set correctly.
I think everybody had a goodtime.
It wasn't too long, it wasn'ttoo short, it was like just
right.
Um, yeah, I would absolutelylove to do it again.
It was a lot of fun.

SPEAKER_06 (32:54):
Yeah, I did love the pacing of the show.
I agree with that.
Yeah, it was great.
Um but the night before that, wedid another um, and I put it in
air quotes, celebrity guestjudge for a karaoke contest.

SPEAKER_11 (33:12):
We're becoming quite the celebrity karaoke DJs out
there in Windburgh.

SPEAKER_06 (33:16):
Well, we're not DJing.
Heidi's DJing.
DJ's Heidi.

SPEAKER_11 (33:19):
Celebrity guest karaoke.
Say it again.
We're becoming quite thecelebrity guest host karaoke
judge.

SPEAKER_06 (33:26):
Isn't that what I said?
No, you said DJ.

SPEAKER_11 (33:30):
Guest karaoke host.
I mean, guest karaoke judge.

SPEAKER_04 (33:37):
Judge!

SPEAKER_11 (33:38):
Okay, hold on.
We're becoming the bestcelebrity guest karaoke judge in
Wimber.
There, take that.

SPEAKER_06 (33:46):
Yeah, and that's quite an honor in Wimburgh
because there's lots of karaokeand maybe more celebrity judges
we don't know about all.

SPEAKER_11 (33:54):
There's really not, though.
We're pretty much the only ones.
And again, we use the term judgevery loosely, and even more
loosely we use the termcelebrity.

SPEAKER_06 (34:04):
It's a great way to do that.

SPEAKER_11 (34:06):
Is there a word for anti-celebrity?
I don't know, but that's it.

SPEAKER_06 (34:10):
We're like Z-list.

SPEAKER_11 (34:12):
Yeah, you've heard of the D-List.
We're Z-list.
Regular people are more popularthan we are.

SPEAKER_06 (34:19):
But it's so fun to do.
It like, and we always have newpeople.
So shout out Annie.
She was a great co-judge.
Shout out to Larissa who put upa cool post beforehand.
We might have to tap into herfor some social media stylings.

SPEAKER_11 (34:38):
Shout out to DJ Heidi because she always puts on
a great show.
We had a it was a fun time, funprizes.
We had a little bit of prizepool there going.
Like this was fun.
It was fun the two rounds.
Like, I love the bag, the mix-upbag.
It makes me, I don't even wantto go to regular karaoke to be

(34:59):
honest with you.

SPEAKER_06 (34:59):
I know.
It's like no fun at this point.
And can we just recognize Larrythough?
I fell in love with Larry.

SPEAKER_12 (35:07):
Larry.

SPEAKER_06 (35:08):
Larry.
He was the winner of thecontest.
Larry is another one.

SPEAKER_04 (35:12):
90 years old.

SPEAKER_06 (35:14):
Yeah.
And he um served in the AirForce for four years, which you
just kind of could see it onhim.
Um, smoking Sigs and drinkingyinling.
Wearing his little his littlehat.
I I just love Larry.

SPEAKER_11 (35:30):
Wearing his Jesus hat.
You gotta be, it's a hell ittakes a hell of a man to sit in
the Windows Slovak club anddrink ganglings and smoke
cigarettes and wear his Jesus.
And sing Elvis and Frank Sinatraand just, yep.
Yes, hit it out of the park,Larry.

SPEAKER_06 (35:47):
However, um, Holly, adorable.
She is such a free spirit, andher voice was very surprising.
And I may or may not have toflash up, and this is why I'm
calling out the winners.
Craig did a version of YMCA thatI just I got behind it.
The whole bar was happy,everybody was singing along, and

(36:08):
I might have caught a clip ofit.

(36:57):
Yes, and for those of you whoare not listening or who are not
watching and just listening,Scott's doing the the the Trump
Trump, the Trump dance ofjerking two guys off at once.
Yes, that dance.
Gotta love it.
And that brings me to anotherpoint, though, is I love a
goddamn good club.

(37:18):
You've got the Slovak club,you've got the Slovenian club.

SPEAKER_11 (37:22):
You give me an Eastern European and you put the
word club behind it, and I'mthere, pub.
Whether it's the Polish NationalAlliance, Slovaks, whoever.
I don't care.
I love them all.

SPEAKER_06 (37:32):
Korean Jesus Club.

SPEAKER_11 (37:34):
Korean Jesus Club, Home Builders Association.
Call it whatever you want to.
I don't care.
I'm there.

SPEAKER_06 (37:42):
Oil changers of America built this country.

SPEAKER_11 (37:45):
Uh what is your Filipino Tilta World workers are
this nation's backbone.

SPEAKER_06 (37:52):
Yes.
Speaking of Jesus, a woman askedme this week.

SPEAKER_12 (37:58):
Speaking of Jesus?
I had a lady asked me this week.
She said, What does your Jesuslook like?
What does my Jesus look like?
Yeah, I like the picture.
Not to you lighting over familyattack with gray lady hair.
I thought about that.
You know, I honestly think Ilike the picture of my six cows.

(38:20):
You know what I mean?
Walks into the last supper.

SPEAKER_07 (38:26):
It's gonna be the last of me off.
They come and call me andthey're gonna get me too.
The Pharisees pilot all over.

SPEAKER_06 (38:44):
People are talking about Jesus.
Jesus is everywhere.
And so very popular right now.

SPEAKER_11 (38:50):
I think it's PC Jesus.
PC Principal Jesus on South Parkthat's really It is.

SPEAKER_06 (38:54):
No, Jesus is the counselor on South Park.

SPEAKER_11 (38:58):
Yeah, he's PC Principal Jesus.
PC principal, PC guidancecounselor.
Who's the principal?
PC principal was the principal.
He left.
He got fired.
They brought in Principal.

SPEAKER_10 (39:11):
PC principal, the guy with the spiked hair, he's
no, he got fired.

SPEAKER_06 (39:15):
He didn't get fired.
He's still the principal.
Jesus is just the counselor.
You're looking at it, dumbass.
You're looking right into yourphone.

SPEAKER_11 (39:25):
I know.
That was the joke about it, isthat I can't use it.

SPEAKER_06 (39:29):
Okay.
So, anyways, I'll get thedetails on that later because I
have I didn't I don't rememberan episode where PC principal
was fired.
I just know that Jesus is justthe guidance counselor.
But remember, we'll watch it forbeer pizza party.
So um obviously can't have thisepisode without talking about

(39:50):
the new date in September thatwe'll never forget, which is
Charlie Kirk being assassinatedon September 10th.
And I'm not smiling because Ithink it's funny.
I'm just smiling because I don'teven know how to talk about it.
Like we're gonna have to talkabout it.
I surprised for probably thefirst time.

SPEAKER_09 (40:11):
No one has to talk about it.

SPEAKER_06 (40:13):
Well, you don't have to talk about it because I don't
want to talk about that.
I want to talk about what it'sdoing to free speech and the
perception of free speech,right?

SPEAKER_11 (40:24):
I'm not sure that we want to get into this.
Uh people know how I feel aboutfree speech, and I don't want to
sh- I don't want to share thatbecause it's not an opinion that
a lot of people agree with.

SPEAKER_06 (40:34):
So it's still your opinion.

SPEAKER_11 (40:36):
I know, I agree.
I mean, here's my thing.
Well, I I summed it up, butthere's a reason I didn't post
that George Carlin thing, butthat's how I feel about it.
I mean, I just don't want to godown that road.
I don't want to put us in thatimposition.

SPEAKER_06 (40:49):
No, I feel that.
I totally feel that.

SPEAKER_11 (40:52):
Because I believe in free speech ultimately.
I believe that you can saywhatever you want, whenever you
want, to whoever you want,however you want.
It's an unequivocal,unequivocal, it's a it's a
zero-sum game.
It's all or nothing.
You either buy it all or you buynothing.
And I don't think that uh I I Ijust you ought to be able to say

(41:14):
whatever you want, whenever youwant it.
It doesn't matter to who.
Nobody should be able to shutyou down, period.
I I I I that is what it is.

SPEAKER_06 (41:22):
No, agree.
The FCC should not be getting inon that, right?
I agree with you.

SPEAKER_11 (41:29):
Yeah, sure, that side.

SPEAKER_06 (41:30):
But again, I I mean it goes back to, I mean, if you
but I also believe inconsequences of free speech,
right?
Which is hard for me to say outloud.

SPEAKER_11 (41:40):
To an extent.

SPEAKER_06 (41:41):
It's hard for me to say out loud right now because
of Charlie Kirk, because ofbeing doxxed and for various
other reasons.
Like as an employee inhealthcare, for example, I can't
sit here and talk about thestate of the healthcare system
because I'm a part of it, right?
So that would put my job at riskbecause I could be one exposing

(42:06):
trade secrets, but I could alsotwo be talking about something
that my employer doesn't agreewith.
So I don't talk about the stateof healthcare in general.
And when I say the state ofhealthcare, I mean healthcare
admin and all that.
Do I talk about people's healthconditions?
Yes, on a regular, but I'm alsonot a doctor.

(42:29):
So if you don't if you take myopinion about what I'm talking
about, somebody else's healthcondition as gospel, that's your
fault for not doing yourresearch on who I am, right?
So I do believe that there canbe consequences of free speech.
I think people getting firedover having an opinion on

(42:52):
Charlie Kirk, it's a gray area.
Do I want somebody employed forme who is publicly celebrating
people's death?
No, because it tells me thatthey're probably a shitty human
being.
But if I know them and I knowthat they're not a shitty human
being, and that sometimes theyjust say things out of character

(43:12):
as rage bait that I'm saying.
As all people do, that's exactlyit.
A lot of it is rage bait.

SPEAKER_11 (43:18):
Nobody wants to be held accountable for everything
that they've ever said in theirlifetime.
That's the bottom line of it.
But free speech is at thefundamental core principle of
everything that we stand for, insense of I will defend free
speech.
You know, this as a comedian,you know, even before I became a
comedian, how I feel about freespeech, absolutely.

(43:38):
To me, it is the one thing, itis the fundamental principle.
Without it, we have nothingelse.
It allows for the freedom ofreligion, it allows for the
freedom of to do whatever thefuck you want to do.
And the point is that nogovernment should be telling you
anything.
And I and matter of fact, and Iget, and I'm gonna say this too,
against this, because I peopledon't think I hate the fucking

(44:00):
government, dude.
I hate our government, I hateyour government, I hate their
government, I hate everybody'sfucking government, I hate
people having control over otherpeople.
I think it's dumb, I think it'sstupid, and I think that free
speech is the only thing that wehave as human beings that allows
us to express anything aboutthought.
If you can't express thought, ifyou can't express feelings, then

(44:22):
it's all moot.
It's all a stupid point and astupid game.
And I mean it is that.
It is that anyway, regardless ofthat.
It it is all just a stupid game,but it is the fundamental thing
in which we all have to have ifwe believe in anything about
that.

SPEAKER_06 (44:38):
That's absolutely right.
Like I a thousand percent agreewith you.
But let's talk about who needsto have accountability for their
quote-unquote free speech,right?
Does somebody like Jimmy Kimmel,for example, need to take
accountability for his freespeech?
No, because he's not deemed anews organization.
He's not out here bringing youthe news.

(45:00):
Did he say something stupid?
Yes.
I've never thought Jimmy Kimmelwas funny.
Do I think that Trump had theright to call the FCC on it?
Or if he did, or whateverhappened there?
No, because it's not state TV,right?
It's not state TV, it's notgovernment TV.
So, but where I do believe thatfree speech does have a great

(45:23):
area with the FCC is in themedia.
The media who claims to be anews organization, right?

SPEAKER_11 (45:31):
I mean, I bel I I believe that that is like to me,
it doesn't matter.
Like, call yourself what youwant to, you're gonna have bias
regardless of whether or not youtry to or not.

SPEAKER_06 (45:43):
Right.
That's exactly it.
So don't so don't try to coverup your bias by claiming to be a
news organization.
Call yourself an opinionorganization and fucking state
your opinions with all the bias.
Where I think this has all gonetoo far crazy is that there's
rhetoric out there.
And this could and so it's it'sthe risk, it's accountability,

(46:06):
right?
It's accountability.
So is the mainstream news, and Iput that in air quotes,
responsible for every fuckingdumb ass American in this
country.
And we know that 50% of Americadoes not have the logical
thought process to process whatis news versus an opinion,
right?

(46:26):
So is there rhetoric, and yes,because I am doing a whole
TikTok thing on this where I'mgonna pull up actual examples,
where the mainstream media hasused violent or negative
rhetoric that could bemisconstrued by dumbass fucking
programmable people, and that'sthe problem.

SPEAKER_11 (46:44):
The news is here's where I disagree with you
though.
I don't think the news peopleshould be beholden to that.
I think the FCC and governmentoversight on television and
media broadcasting is bullshit.
They should be able to do, saywhatever they want to.
They shouldn't be held to thesestandards.
The FCC is a made-uporganization, it's made-up
regulations, controlled by noone.

(47:05):
I don't agree with it.
I don't agree with any of it.
Say whatever the fuck you want,whenever the fuck you want,
however the fuck you want to, towhoever you want to.
Whatever the consequences aregonna be, that's what the
consequences would be.

SPEAKER_06 (47:16):
Would you allow that in school?

SPEAKER_11 (47:18):
What?
I wouldn't allow any televisionin school.
Why aren't we watchingtelevision?

SPEAKER_06 (47:23):
No, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_11 (47:25):
And don't act like I'm not acting like anything.
I'm not, I'm having a baby.
Having learning how to talk on anormal TV show.
But you no, I I disagree thatwhat I'm just saying.

SPEAKER_06 (47:38):
No, no, no, no, no, because that's not even what I'm
fucking saying.
I'm not talking about TV.

SPEAKER_11 (47:42):
On them, why are you getting angry?

SPEAKER_06 (47:44):
Because you're not listening to me.
You're so working.

SPEAKER_11 (47:47):
You said, would you allow that in schools?
No, I wouldn't want teachersput.

SPEAKER_06 (47:51):
All right, but I'm gonna restart because I want to
cut all this out.
So fucking stop.
Would you allow somebody to walkinto the school and present news
to the children every day, whatthey call news, that is a
distorted opinion of what factsare.
Why?
Because children are easilyprogrammable, right?

(48:14):
Most of them are not.
Exactly.
But when you're a newsorganization and you're
presenting alleged facts,because the word news associates
the brain, it's a programmingthing.
And it is mental programming,it's systemic mental

(48:38):
programming.
If somebody comes to me andtells me that they're a news
organization, and for the last30 years of my life, I believed
that they were only presentingfacts.
And then all of a sudden, oneday, when I like came out of my
bubble and learned that one, theeducation system didn't even
teach me how to think logically.
And now, two, I've got somebodytelling me that they're

(48:59):
delivering me news that'sactually opinion, and I don't
have the brain power to sortthrough that.
It's systemic programming.

SPEAKER_11 (49:08):
I can sort of understand that, but I also
don't think why are mediacompanies beholding to telling
the truth?
Who said that they have to be?

SPEAKER_06 (49:16):
Not all media companies, media companies that
call themselves the news.

SPEAKER_11 (49:20):
Right, but that's just defining what you think
that the news is.

SPEAKER_06 (49:26):
No, but the news for generations was always just
giving you the fact.

SPEAKER_11 (49:31):
That was just uh unspoken like public agreement.
Like that wasn't the way that ithas to be.

(49:54):
I think you're looking at thenews as a public service, and I
don't believe that it ever was.
I always believe that it waspart of the brainwashing.

SPEAKER_06 (49:59):
Where are you supposed to get your facts from
then?
Where do you as a human get yourfacts?

SPEAKER_11 (50:04):
If you that's just it, that's the problem.

SPEAKER_06 (50:07):
Facts on legislation only exist in Congress
documentation.
Who is the person who is goingto research that for me and
convey the the key points minusany emotion or opinion?

SPEAKER_11 (50:24):
That's the problem.
There's no one that can do that.

SPEAKER_06 (50:27):
That's why we're in the mess for the news used to
be.

SPEAKER_11 (50:31):
That's what the news was supposed to be.
But to think that the newsdidn't do do those things back
then just under a much more easyguise because there was no one
else, they definitely did.
No, I understand.
And I I know that that became athing, but my point though is
even before that they were justdisguised as those things.

(50:55):
Disguised to be bringing you thetruth.
It's all been under a ruse ofthe government media military
co-op since like I mean, we'retalking early before there was
television.

SPEAKER_06 (51:07):
Well, I know where I get my news from.
I'm just gonna tell everybody.
I take the air quote news of theday and I feed it through Chat
GPT and I ask them to unpack itfor me, minus any emotions or
nuance or that's essentiallywhat everybody should be doing,
is because you cannot getreliable like there's just no
reliable.

SPEAKER_11 (51:28):
This is what people talk about when they talk about
there's no reliableinstitutions.
It doesn't matter where it isacross the world.
Like it's just so correct.

SPEAKER_06 (51:40):
I don't disagree with you, but as a devil's
advocate, I have to unpack it,and that's called what I just
did to you was a fishbonediagram.
Because how are you getting thefacts unpacked in a way that
makes sense to you?
Now, you as a smarter than theaverage human being can look at
what's in a newspaper and youcan automatically discern fact

(52:02):
from opinion because your brainprocesses things logically.
Not everybody does that.
We we hang out with people thatare.

SPEAKER_11 (52:11):
That's somewhat true, but I even question every
study that I read, every pieceof everything that I read, I
question.
I don't hold any of it as truth.
That's my thing as a human.
You know that about me.
I don't hold anything as truthbecause I think it's all fucked.
I think it's all fucked.
We're fucked, they're fucked,we're all fucked.

SPEAKER_06 (52:30):
So in that case, what do you do?
Like, where do you like do youknow?

SPEAKER_11 (52:34):
You don't you live your life and you have a good
time and you try to help andlove others and cherish things
and let those little things be apart of your life and you tune
all that rest of that bullshitout.

SPEAKER_06 (52:46):
Right.
Like you almost have to make aconscious decision.
Like, I am not meant to be anactivist, therefore I'm not
engaging in activist rhetoric,right?

SPEAKER_11 (52:58):
If you're I don't engage in any of it.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 (53:01):
But so there's the other, so the free speech thing
is one of the Charlie KirkCharlie, I can't talk.
So the free speech thing is oneof the things that came out of
Charlie Kirk, right?

SPEAKER_11 (53:13):
Because obviously And Charlie Kirk would defend me
right here, right now, becausehe also believed that too.
Unequivocally, he believed infree speech more than anything
else and stood up for itregardless of what it was.
He said at best, there is nohate speech.
There's terrible speech, there'sgross speech, there's sick
speech, but all of it, everylast little fucking piece of it

(53:36):
is protected under the FirstAmendment, and that's the
fucking bottom line, becauseStone Cold said so.

SPEAKER_06 (53:42):
No, it's funny that you say that because um so
obviously when I was far left,right, I hated the thought of
Charlie Kirk.
I literally believed with everyfiber of my being that he was a
racist, extreme dogmatic, blah,blah, blah, so-and-so, right?

(54:04):
And then I started followingMega Creators on TikTok and
listening to him debate, right?
And it's if you are left andsomeone like Charlie Kirk
debates you, there's going to beemotion tied to it because you
don't want to hear anythingcoming from somebody that you

(54:26):
feel like you fundamentallydisagree with, regardless,
right?
Um, and the other thing is thathe used the Bible as the
foundation for some of hisarguments, which you and I know,
like I know you disagree withthat.
Um, I disagree with it to apoint, but for me, it's not
because you and I both agreethat the Bible is not factual,

(54:50):
right?
Or agree with the Bible.
You and I agree that the Bibleis not factual, right?
And I believe that it is ametaphorical guidestone for what
argument could be made.

SPEAKER_11 (55:03):
Certainly.
My audio cut out completely.
Can you hear me?

SPEAKER_06 (55:07):
Yeah, it was.

SPEAKER_11 (55:09):
Okay, now you're back.
You're back now.
Yeah, I could see you talking,but yeah, for a second I
couldn't hear you.

SPEAKER_06 (55:14):
So for me, um it was hard even after I came out of
the closet as long as I go.
It's like I'm just claiming.
Um, because I don't even say,like, I believe in the principle
of make America great again, butI'm not a diehard Trumpian.
Like I see the flaws in hisbullshit sometimes, right?

(55:35):
And I see where he's he doesthings to like kind of dig at
people and troll people that Idon't think is necessary as a
grown-up human being.
But sometimes, like when youhave that competitive edge, it's
fun to hurt people's feelings,especially when people are so
easily hurt.
So I get the troll side of himtoo.

(55:57):
Um, but I don't like for thatwhole Charlie Kirk thing, what
I'm really surprised about arethe amount of people who are
actually truly moving towardsChristianity.
And I don't know if that'snecessarily a good or a bad
thing.
I haven't really decided yetbecause I don't believe in the
dogma of church, right?

(56:20):
I believe in the community, thefellowship, the morality, all of
that good stuff.

SPEAKER_11 (56:25):
Anytime religious people want to get more
religious or come back to it,I'm against it.
I'm totally against it.
I don't think it's a good ideafor these people to be putting
their ideas together.
Um I just don't.
I think religion always re leadsto the wrong things.
Uh grouping people up like that,it just always leads to the

(56:46):
wrong things.
Always.

SPEAKER_06 (56:48):
It depends on the intent, right?
And that's and I've talked aboutthat this past couple weeks is
if your intent is fellowship, uhcommunion.

SPEAKER_11 (56:57):
I mean, I would argue that that was the intent
from the very, very beginning.

SPEAKER_06 (57:01):
It is the intent from the very, very beginning.
But there are men, right?
Fallible, fallible men, as Ialways say, who become the
leaders of organizations likethat.
So you have to get, you have todiscern like, where do I fit in?
If you're going to go back tochurch, and I've said this a
couple of times this week, ifyou are going to go back to
church, and it's not because youfirmly believe that the Lord and

(57:25):
Savior Jesus Christ died on thecross to save you, but you want
to go back for the for thecommunity, then make sure you
find a church who's not likewho's not dogmatic, not
fundamentalist, not lots ofother things that are going to
cause you problems.

SPEAKER_11 (57:42):
There is churches that view this as an
allegorical, metaphorical thing.
They are few and far between,though, and much less they are
definitely the exception to thenorm.

SPEAKER_06 (57:54):
Right.
But then the universalunitarianism, which was kind of
meant to be that, fucking wentthe whole other direction.

SPEAKER_11 (58:01):
Well, that's just the problem.
That's the problem witheverything.
It's it just it just falls apartbecause none of it's built
together at any foundation.
That's the problem with alleverything, all of it.
That's the problem with thingsthat we make up.
That's the problem withhumanity, but that gives me
great joy and great pleasure inwatching humanity fail and fail
again because that's what givesme comedic relief.

SPEAKER_06 (58:23):
And see, for me, like I I have it, like it's it's
like an accordion for me,because on one day I believe
that everything is already meantto be the way that it's meant to
be because of the dynamics ofmetaphysics.
And then on the next day, my andthen the next day my emotions
take over, and I'm like, well,maybe there is some type of

(58:44):
energy that you can move withyour intent, right?
And I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_11 (58:48):
Sure, yeah, but that's also our fundamental flaw
as human beings.
But that's the beauty of it, isI think when you really accept
sort of the Indian view of orthe Eastern view of birth and
rebirth, that none of thismatters.
It's all made up.
We're playing a game, and we tryto tap into those moments of the

(59:08):
universal consciousness wheneverwe can, but there will be a time
when we return to light, andthat's that.
All the rest of it is just funand games.

SPEAKER_06 (59:19):
It is, but if it's a good guiding principle to keep
you in check.
But like fundamentally when youwant to, you know, just go ham
and like you're going crazy,it's the kind of things that
help you like bring yourselfback to center and and think
through it when you're in inthat state.
So I don't knock it.
I'm not like it's here's what'scrazy is, and and we've I can't

(59:43):
talk about the why we wouldeventually be going back to
church, but I do want to havethat foundation in my home, full
stop.
And I you're over there rollingyour eyes, and I get it.
Um, but that's because you werereleased, raised with a hyper
religious life.
Mom, who we know doesn't havethe fundamental she's naive,

(01:00:04):
right?
Right.
So it's hard to listen toreligion from somebody who's
naive.

SPEAKER_11 (01:00:09):
I recognize all those things and I recognize the
good thing that it's done.
Like I, you know me, I get likeemotional about some things.
I recognize it for all thosethings, but I also am still able
to see the forest through thetrees.
And if fundamentally, like Ibelieve, like you know what I
believe, and more closely, mybeliefs align with more of an

(01:00:31):
Eastern style version ofreligion.
I don't even call what they doreligion because it's not, and
they don't consider it reallyeither.

SPEAKER_05 (01:00:38):
Spirituality is exactly right.

SPEAKER_11 (01:00:40):
It's just being a part of the universe that we
live in and recognizingdifferent things.
I don't even think it's that.
I think that it's it's a it'sjust a connection to whatever
the thing is that driveseverything, the universal
whatever.

SPEAKER_06 (01:00:55):
And my brain is just able to crosswalk that from what
my Christian friends believe orwhat my Hindu friends believe to
like a universal thought.
Like I'm able to listen to allof it and crosswalk it to what I
believe.

SPEAKER_11 (01:01:10):
Yeah, sure.
I can too, and I I am able to dothat.
But 98% of people are not ableto do that.

SPEAKER_06 (01:01:20):
The fact that we're even sitting here thinking about
this is hilarious, though,because at the core nature of
our being, like of your and myhuman being, we are the not the
most, right?
Because I judge people fucking.
You and I both judge people.
But outside of judging people,and I judge people for not

(01:01:40):
taking accountability, for nothaving to get up and go, for
those kind of things.
But at the end of the day, likeyou and I both want good for a
lot of people.
Like we love people.
Like there, I'm a promoter.
I want everybody around me toeat.
I don't want to be the only oneever.
I don't want to be the leader.
I don't want to be in charge.

(01:02:02):
I just want everyone around meto be comfortable and happy.
And I think you are too.

SPEAKER_11 (01:02:06):
That's the difference between me and you I
want to be the leader.
Fuck these people.
I want them to listen to me sothey shut the fuck up.

SPEAKER_06 (01:02:14):
All right.
So we have one more topic tocover before we hop, but I do
have to take a quick key break.
If you'll give me one second,I'm gonna walk away.
I don't know if Kyle wants tocome on camera, if you want to
talk or sing or Ken, hold on.

SPEAKER_09 (01:02:26):
I was just looking at what happened to my thing.

SPEAKER_06 (01:02:29):
You turned your camera off.
You hit your camera.
How did I hit my camera off?

SPEAKER_09 (01:02:33):
How do I get back?
Hold on.

SPEAKER_06 (01:02:34):
I'm trying to get back to You gotta find the
button that looks black with awhite draw.

SPEAKER_11 (01:02:39):
Oh, I'm back.
I'm back, I'm back, baby.

SPEAKER_02 (01:02:41):
I'm back, baby.
And ain't nobody gonna tell me.
Ain't no get it.
Jerkin' two guys off at once.
Open in my mouth, open in mymouth, the Donald Trump, jerking

(01:03:02):
two guys off at once, two guysoff at once, two guys off at
once.

SPEAKER_11 (01:03:09):
No, but seriously, I think the real important thing
for you to decide.
I think everybody needs to goout there and read a book called
Neil Donald Walsh Conversationswith God.

SPEAKER_04 (01:03:17):
That's gonna be a good thing.

SPEAKER_11 (01:03:20):
Have your own conversation and decide.

SPEAKER_06 (01:03:25):
That's such a great book.
I love that book.

SPEAKER_11 (01:03:27):
It's fabulous.
Did you see my dance?
I was dancing all the time.

SPEAKER_02 (01:03:38):
Open in my mouth, choking two guys all at once.
Oh my god.

SPEAKER_06 (01:03:44):
All right, somebody needs some pizza.
So let's talk about this lastthing.
This poor girl, she, this girl,Sam, she's she's come into my
life when I had so much othershit going on.
I've had to put her on pause acouple times.
I am bringing her on thepodcast.
Um, hopefully before the October15th episode, we'll get her on,

(01:04:07):
we'll get her interviewed.
But um, so this case is comingto you from Washington County,
Pennsylvania.
Uh, I think it's out byCalifornia.

SPEAKER_11 (01:04:19):
Home of Joe Montana, baby.

SPEAKER_04 (01:04:23):
Hey!

SPEAKER_06 (01:04:24):
Well, yes, but this is a little sadder.
So um Matthew McDonald wentmissing in 2023.
It's a crazy case, dude.
There is a small YouTubedocumentary called um uh
something like Where is Matthewor something like that.

(01:04:46):
I'll flash it up on the screenwhen I'm when I'm editing.

SPEAKER_11 (01:04:49):
Um And we want to encourage people.
We do not know this story thiswell.
We've only known what verylittle that we have read.
We want to investigate itfurther.
We're gonna do a little, youknow, how we do, you know how we
do with them investigations,son.
Come on.
No, but seriously, you know howwe do with investigations.
You know how Alana does it, youknow how I do it.

(01:05:12):
We're very thorough, very good,she's the best.
Um but the we're gonnafamiliarize familiarize
ourselves with this case alittle bit better.
But if anybody out there as wetalk about this knows this case,
has any information on the case,I don't care if it's rumors,

(01:05:34):
innuendo, you heard it fromSally Jesse Raphael down at the
grocery store reading thetabloids, whatever it is, reach
out to us.
Our information is out there onhow to get in touch with us.
Send us, shoot us a whatever,get us as on Facebook, our
website, whatever.
We want to hear your story, wewant to hear what you have to

(01:05:55):
say, we want your opinion, wewant your questions.
Also, if you are just evenvaguely familiar with the story
and you have questions becauseyou know a little something, but
you want to know a little more,get in touch with us because
we're gonna be talking to thesepeople.
We can find out these answersfor you.
Um we're gonna really keeptalking about this.

(01:06:15):
We're gonna talk about this.

SPEAKER_06 (01:06:16):
Yeah, we're gonna bring Yep, we're gonna bring
Matthew's sister Sam on to thepodcast.
We're gonna ask her somequestions.
I would like to know more abouthim.
So at when I first startedresearching the case, it seemed
like, oh, just another kind ofaddict from Western Pennsylvania
type story.

(01:06:37):
No, this kid, like I'm seeingthat this was like a good,
hardworking kid that might havejust got mixed up with the wrong
fucking people.
There's a lot of crazinesssurrounding his this case.

SPEAKER_11 (01:06:49):
There is drugs involved, but there's a lot of
shadiness.
Like, I get drug stuff, drugstuff happens all the time, but
that doesn't mean somethingshady didn't happen.
Just because drugs were involveddoesn't mean somebody didn't get
wronged.
People always are quick to, oh,it's drugs.
What's that mean?
Well, it was drugs.
Drugs didn't kidnap a kid, drugsdidn't kill nobody.
Well, maybe some, but still, youget what I'm saying.

(01:07:11):
They didn't murder anybody.
Like I get that drugs may beinvolved, but that doesn't mean
that these other people weren'tacting with malintent.

SPEAKER_06 (01:07:20):
Right.
And that is the whole reason whyone of the reasons why I wanted
to do this podcast is because Ihad felt powerless at times when
the police were supposed to behelping with something, right?
And so this has been an activemissing persons case since 2023.
It's still an open investigationwith the Washington County

(01:07:42):
Police Office Department.
And it just bugs me because Ifeel like from the players
involved, and I'm gonna play avideo clip here so you guys can
hear this in Sam's own words ofwhat she says is involved.
Now, obviously, we're not sayingthese people's names because we

(01:08:04):
don't we haven't done anyinvestigation into the case yet.
This girl she is going after thelast known people to have known
her brother, the last knownpeople to have been with him,
the people that had his phone,and she's calling them out by
their full government.
We're gonna look into it.

(01:08:24):
We're going to do the research.
Like I said, there's already adocumentary on it.
Um, but I will um clip Sam righthere so you guys can hear
exactly how she describes it.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:36):
This video is for Kylie Humphreys, Trisha Payette,
David Payet, and SierraArbogast.
If you're none of them, you cankeep scrolling.
You're all responsible for mybrother's disappearance on March
9th, 2023, in different ways.
Kylie, you left him at acemetery with nothing but the
clothes on his back when he wasnot in the right state of mind.

(01:08:57):
You went through his phone andpretended to be him and hooked
up with a side chick, and youmade videos in his phone.
You also didn't call the policeor let anyone know he was
missing, and then you threw hisclothes out.
Sierra, you pretended to be himin his phone, hooked up with
Kylie, and then stole the phoneoff of Kylie.
You also uploaded on Facebook avideo of you singing, I just

(01:09:18):
unalived my ex.
Why?
Trisha, you kept the phone for aweek and a half and wouldn't
give it to us, wouldn't answerus, wouldn't do anything.
But you knew where my brotherwas days prior to him going
missing, and you were the lastperson he called.
David, you are supposed to be mybrother's best friend.
Why were you hanging out withKylie after he went missing?
And Trisha and David, why do yourefuse to speak to the police?

(01:09:42):
Sierra, you just keep lying outyour teeth.
You went to jail and toldeverybody that you were a part
of it.
So what's the truth?
I'll keep putting pressure wherepressure needs applied, and I'll
keep saying these names over andover until I get answers.
Matthew McDonald, a son, abrother, a friend, and a father,
was left with nothing but theclothes on his back in a

(01:10:04):
cemetery on the side of the roadon March 9th, 2023, in
California, Pennsylvania.

SPEAKER_06 (01:10:10):
But we are going to spend the next couple weeks deep
diving this case and asking thequestions.

SPEAKER_11 (01:10:16):
And prior to that, I encourage each and every one of
you to go out and do theresearch research for yourself.
Then come back to us withquestions.
Come back to us with follow-ups.
We want you to go out there anddo a little bit of research too,
because we're it's all hands ondeck here right now.

unknown (01:10:34):
Right.

SPEAKER_11 (01:10:35):
We're just trying to bring some resolution to this
woman's pain and suffering.

SPEAKER_06 (01:10:40):
That's exactly.
And the thing of it is, like,her family is not stopping.
They've done a spaghetti dinner,they've done a bingo, they're
keeping his name out there.
They're doing visuals, they'renot stopping until they figure
out what happened to Matthew.
And now I feel like I can't stopeither.
Like, I want to look into this.

(01:11:01):
There's some dirty peopleinvolved, and they may not be
criminals or may not beresponsible, but there's
definitely some shadymotherfuckers.

SPEAKER_09 (01:11:10):
We're not making No, go ahead, finish.

SPEAKER_06 (01:11:14):
I know for a hundred percent fact that we have
friends in Western Pennsylvania.
I'm I would venture to guessthat we know a few people that
live right there, right aroundthe phone.

SPEAKER_11 (01:11:24):
We might need to know a few people that roughly
know some of these people thattravel in some of these same.
Not saying they know the people,but they might know of somebody
that knows somebody.
You know what I mean?
But like the biggest thing thatI want to emphasize here, too,
is like you said, we have noopinion, we're not saying one
way or the other what happened,but we're gonna look into it.
We want you to look into it, andwe're all gonna come back and
meet up on this thing.

SPEAKER_05 (01:11:44):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_11 (01:11:45):
Because it's definitely like you said, when
you say shady things happening,there's a lot of things that
don't make sense.
There's a lot of things thatfrom the surface don't add up.
So we're gonna deep dive and diginto some of that and try to get
maybe we're just off base.
Maybe there's a reasonableexplanation for certain things
that we see along the way.

(01:12:06):
Don't shake your head no, youdon't know.
We're there maybe certain.
Go ahead.

SPEAKER_06 (01:12:14):
I'm only shaking my head no because this case came
to my DMs at a time where I had50 million other fucking things
going on, and I did not want totake it because I had too much,
and I looked at this girl'sTikToks and I was like, we're
taking this.

SPEAKER_11 (01:12:33):
Right.

SPEAKER_06 (01:12:34):
I want to cover this.

SPEAKER_11 (01:12:36):
Right.
And that's but back to my pointthough, like we don't know the
detail, and I'm not gonna saythis thing is shady, this thing
is shady, but I'm saying there'sshady things involved, and we're
gonna figure out which ones meansomething and which ones don't.

SPEAKER_06 (01:12:50):
Yeah, and emotionally we're separated,
right?
Because we don't personally knowthe family or this person.
So in that case, we're going tobe able to bring our logical
discernment, we're going to beable to bring our experience.
Like, it's not like we're wworking murder cases every day,
but we that's our shit.

(01:13:10):
Like, we investigate, we study,we do all the things.
So this is gonna be one of thefirst cases that's close to home
that we can actually do someactual boots on the ground kind
of footwork to help kind ofbring some light to it at least.

SPEAKER_11 (01:13:25):
That's exactly right.
We can go, you can be like, hey,what's this building like?
And we'll drive out there andcheck it out for you.
Hey, is this McDonald's stillthere?
I don't know.
Let me go get a McChicken andfind out.
Hey, it says here, he stoppedoff for a slice.
I'll go stop off for a slice,see what happens.
So we'll make it happen.

(01:13:48):
We can relive.
This is one of those cases we doa lot of stuff where we talk
about things, but we can walk inthe shoes.

SPEAKER_05 (01:13:54):
Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_11 (01:13:56):
And we know these people.
This is not like when we're inthe outer banks trying to solve
Stacey Stanton.
Those people know we'reoutsiders.
Here, they don't we fit rightin.
We fit right in.
We can talk about it.

SPEAKER_06 (01:14:08):
What are you guys doing?
What are you in guys doingtoday?

SPEAKER_11 (01:14:11):
What are you doing down?
Who took that kid down there?
He was somebody called hisphone, took him up there.
He's supposed to go pick up somedrugs or something.

SPEAKER_12 (01:14:20):
He come down there.
He comes down there.

SPEAKER_06 (01:14:23):
All right.
So again, we're I'm gonna getSam scheduled to come on the
show.
Um, so we'll be talking moreagain.
It's Matthew McDonald out ofWashington County, Pennsylvania,
missing since 2023.
We are going to cover it.
It is still active, and he'sstill missing.
Let's figure out where the hellhe went.

SPEAKER_11 (01:14:44):
And I know I've made some jokes, but it is a very
serious matter.
We we joke about stupid stufflike involved with it, but we
it's not that we because we'retaking this not serious in any
way, shape, or form.
I mean no disrespect to anybodyinvolved with that.
It's just we joke around aboutthings, and I would never joke
around again, it's just likesmall town murder tells her

(01:15:05):
people we're scumbags.
Or wait, how's it go?

SPEAKER_06 (01:15:09):
Yeah, we're assholes, but we're not
scumbags.

SPEAKER_11 (01:15:11):
Not scumbags.
Yeah, I'm not gonna talk badabout the murder or anything
like that.
I will, however, talk shit onthe burger places that come up
in the conversation, pizzashops, ice cream parlors, other
various establishments.
