We also dig into a listener letter that’s equal parts hilarious and alarming. Casper writes about his girlfriend’s deep belief in a coming zombie apocalypse—endless zombie shows, doomsday podcasts, and a 2 a.m. raw-meat “experiment” to see if she’ll turn. We unpack where fandom becomes fixation, how pop culture shapes fear, and the difference between healthy preparedness and obsession. More importantly, we talk practical relationship tools: setting boundaries, naming red flags, and choosing safety without shaming someone’s imagination.

SPEAKER_02 (04:52):
Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
SPEAKER_01 (04:57):
Ah, snap.
How's everybody doing out there?
It's been a good day.
It's been a good week.
I hope you guys have had afantastic day, a fantastic week.
I know I have some crazy shittoday.
You know.
(05:18):
Today at work.
So amazed about how chill peopleare, you know?
So let's head into a transferstation.
For those of you guys who don'tknow, I am a roll-off driver, a
roll-off truck driver.
Um, maybe you guys know whatthat is.
If not, I will give you a briefrundown.
(05:39):
So, what I do for a living isthat I pick up we call them
cans, but they're actuallydumpsters.
The company I work for, wedeliver 40 yards, 30 yards, 20
yards, uh, 12 yards, and uh 8yard dumpsters.
So, the crazy thing is I washeaded to the transfer station.
(06:01):
Transfer station is where we goto dump the trash, and then more
trucks take the trash and hauloff to a secret location where I
have no idea.
I'm just talking, I'm kidding.
I don't know what they do withthis shit.
It's trash, yeah.
My job is just to pick up adump.
In any event, tell you what,Jesus.
So I was headed to the transferstation.
You know, of course, this whitethick smoke filled the air.
(06:24):
I just thought it was nothing.
I just thought one of thefactories was just, you know,
blowing off steam as they alwaysdo.
I kid you not.
I'm driving down the road to theright of me as a gas station, a
big gas station, right next to apost office.
Uh, this guy's car is literallyon fire.
Now, the crazy thing is, is thatwell, it's an it's another day,
(06:45):
it's just another day inparadise.
But the most sinister andcrazier thing is that his car
was on fire at a gas station.
Okay, this gas station hasroughly about maybe 12 12 pumps,
and they're double stacked.
So, well, maybe it's more thanthat.
I don't know.
Could be 12, could be a littlebit more than that.
(07:07):
In any event, I kid you not,people are still pumping their
gas while this car is engulfedin flames.
Now, mind you, the car issitting at a gas pump, and
they're like, uh, you know,still gotta get gas.
So me, as I'm driving, I'mlooking for the wow factor, you
know, the the big boom.
Because I didn't see a firetruck, an ambulance, or nothing
(07:31):
in sight.
So I'm like, I guess it's one ofthose days.
I mean, it's hot as helloutside, nobody feels like
working, car goes up in flames.
We just want to keep filling upour cars.
Now, me personally, if I seenshit like that, I'm in the car.
I'm in the car in the truck andI'm hauling ass because you
know, gas is combustible, so younever know what the hell's gonna
happen.
There's so much unpredictable,and yeah, I know there's fail
(07:52):
safes in the pumps, but still,you know, it all it takes is
that one wrong person and goahead and light this cigarette
up, and then you got one firealready going, and here comes
another one.
This is the big grand finale,you know.
I thought for sure this shit wasgonna be on the news, but eh, I
guess it wasn't.
So that was my day, you know,fun day, but hot.
(08:13):
You know, I'm not sure what partof the country you guys are, but
we are in the heart of America,and it is hot.
Oh, it was so hot.
I mean, I seen a bird justflying, and he just crashed out
into the into what I thought wasa pond, but he was met with very
disappointment because when hegot down, it was nothing but
dust.
(08:33):
So he might have even thought hewas seeing shit.
You know, how like you're in thedesert and you think you see
water.
Well, that's the way he felt, sowhatever.
I tell you, boy, it is someweird shit going on in this
world today, you know, and asthe days go by, it just gets
(08:55):
weirder and weirder, you know.
See, back in our day it was morecivil, more civilized.
We didn't have this kind ofshit, you know.
I mean, if we did, we knew howto deal with it, right?
So, before we get to the showand the letter, I'm gonna give
you guys one more thing.
So, I kid you not, Jesus.
As I'm scrolling throughInstagram, apparently there are
all types of people that havebeef with each other, and
(09:17):
unbeknownst to me, I didn't knowthe uh the deaf people have beef
too.
I've never seen that shitbefore.
That's something you don't evensee.
I mean, you see it on TV, butthat's like a controlled
environment.
So I'm pretty sure if you guyshave or have not seen this video
that circle around on uh IG orSnap or whatever, Facebook,
(09:39):
whatever.
It is, I kid you not, Jesus.
And I couldn't really laughbecause I was trying to figure
out is this real?
So there are three women, andthey are hearing impaired, and
they were on either FacebookLive, I think it was Facebook
Live, and apparently they werebeefing with somebody.
Who they were beefing with, Ihave no idea.
All I got was in sign language,and they were doing the you
(10:04):
know, okay, so like the thingthat does the Undertaker where
you cut uh like you're gonna cuthis head off, and if he he goes
across his neck, that was goingon.
I kid you not, I spent a wholedamn hour trying to interpret
what they were saying.
I came up with zero, zeroresults.
You hear me?
Zero results, and I mean thecrazy thing is this beef was so
(10:24):
real.
I was like, is this reallyhappening, dude?
That people really beef, andthen she had pointed down to her
dudes down at the end of thestairs.
I mean, they gotta be eitherDominican or Mexican or whatever
the hell they are.
I don't really care.
I just never seen that shitbefore, and I thought that was
like, really?
What the hell?
What does this?
I mean, I didn't even think theybeef with people like that.
(10:47):
I mean, sure, you know, mysister's disabled, and she's
just mean, she's mean for noreason.
I mean, we try to get her to benice, but she's just honory as
hell.
I mean, I don't know why, but Istill love her and she's my
sister.
But apparently, people from allwalks of life can have issues
with somebody.
I to this day don't know whothey were dealing with or who
(11:07):
they were talking to, and ofcourse, the comment section went
crazy.
You know, there were comments onthere that I I shouldn't have
laughed at that I did laugh at,but I didn't laugh too hard
because it's just weird becauseyou never see this shit, you
know.
And this is what brings you toto the show that we're gonna
have today, or that we're doing.
I'm sorry, I didn't even give anintroduction.
(11:28):
For those of y'all who don'tknow, my name is Derek, I am
Endeavour Empire.
Welcome to the show.
I'm sorry, I've just beenrambling on about this, rambling
on about that, and I don't know,it's just been a weird, weird
week and a weird day, you know.
It's just been going crazy, andthe shit that I see, I'm just
like amazed, you know.
And I'm like, how does this evenwork?
(11:51):
I mean, the whole thing is I sithere for an hour trying to
figure out the translation ofthe sign language.
If that wasn't worse enough, Iwas trying to figure out I was
looking for more videos to seeif they actually went to go do
what they say they were gonnado.
I don't even know how thishappened.
I'm not gonna read none of thecomments because to some it
might be funny, but to others,I'm not trying to poke fun at
the hearing impair because Irespect all people.
(12:12):
I know it's not funny, but mygod, the comments were like I
mean, it was like ComedyCentral.
I mean, on a Wednesday, so gofigure.
In any event, this brings me tothis brings me to a letter that
(12:32):
was submitted by a listener umthat apparently is going through
some weird shit in hisrelationship.
Uh shit is so weird, I've neverheard of this before.
I mean, kinda sorta, but notreally.
But when I read this letter thefirst time, I was like
completely in awe and amazed,and I was trying to get more
(12:55):
clarification from the guy thatwrote this letter.
Um, because clearly, clearly, Ithought that this couldn't be
real, but I tell you what, whenI get through reading this
letter, I can assure you thatit's I think it is real.
Um, because as I've shared withstories before about some people
believing or drinking too muchof their own damn Kool-Aid shit
(13:18):
is real.
So this guy's name, well no.
Yeah, this guy's name is Casper.
Um, which is ironic enough whenI read this letter, um, because
it gets really weird.
And I gotta be honest with you.
(13:40):
This is some shit I don't evenget down on.
But you know what?
I indulge my listeners, so Iwill indulge this letter.
Without further ado, here we go.
Uh, Derek.
Hey, how are you?
Have you ever been with someonewho constantly believes in
something that is totally notreal?
Here is my problem.
(14:00):
This guy's been dating for thebetter part of five months.
Thinks zombies are real.
Yep, as well as everybody elsedoes.
I don't know how we ended uptogether because clearly she has
issues.
Until this day, I don'tunderstand how we talk how the
talk of zombies came up.
She's definitely one of thosethat if you tell her something
that's fiction, then she triesto explain as if it's really
(14:23):
happening right now.
Like, take for instance TheWalking Dead.
You've seen it, yeah, we've allseen The Walking Dead.
She thinks that it willdefinitely happen.
Oh yeah, as well as everybodyelse, you know.
I told her that it's clearly notimp that it's clearly not
possible.
And she said, wait and see, thenI would be thanking her.
And I'm like, what the hell?
(14:44):
Thanking her for a zombieapocalypse?
Seriously?
Who makes this shit up?
She loves Rob Zombie.
Do you know who Rob do you knowwho that is?
I know who Rob Zombie is.
That dude is awesome.
He's freaking electric.
I like his music.
And listen to various listen tovarious podcasts about zombie.
Dude, what the hell?
(15:07):
This is crazy.
This is crazy, y'all.
It's crazy.
I don't even do this shit, butit's crazy.
One day she scared the hell outof me, and I saw her I saw her
eating raw red meat like 2 a.m.
in the fucking morning.
These are his words, not mine,because you know I don't use the
(15:27):
word every word on my podcast,but whatever.
So I'm reading his letter inentirety.
So keep in mind when I found herin the kitchen eating eating it,
I was like, what the I thoughtshe was eating the fucking cat.
Who eats a cat?
I had a bat in my hand and Ialmost laid her the fuck out
(15:48):
with no hesitation.
I lost it.
But thankful.
Mr.
T was alright.
Your cat?
Is it name Mr.
T?
Oh my god.
This is crazy.
I asked her, what the hell areyou doing, Casey?
She replies I was seeing if Iwould turn into a zombie.
I would praise taste.
(16:09):
What the hell?
Dude, I don't get to know thisshit.
It's getting to the point whereI've had enough.
I don't know what was your firstclue.
I can't even watch a dumbassscary movie because of what she
would say or do.
In the beginning it was cool.
All we really watch were moviesabout zombies.
(16:31):
Is this what the world is comingto?
I'm 26 years old.
And I'm not old enough to knowwhen when the zombie thing when
the zombie thing is a thing.
I can't deal with this shit.
Check this.
Ah god, you know I try to keepthis shit together.
Check this shit out.
So I talked to her and told herthat this shit is too weird for
(16:52):
me.
And I'm about to dip.
Do you know what the hell shesaid to me?
Oh, she said it's okay.
When I turn I'll come fight you.
I'll bite you.
Who the hell writes this shit?
Who does this?
Is this just real?
(17:12):
Oh my god.
Do you know I left everything inthe fucking house?
Got in my car and dipped out.
If I had wings, I would haveflown, but then again, I left so
damn quickly.
I was flying either either way.
Or I was clearly I.
Nigga, you say you wasn't I?
Man, Derek.
Um I don't know who or what Igot myself into, but clearly I
(17:37):
think it's going to be a bit ofa ride date.
Maybe a week or two.
Listen, man.
You said we could email youabout anything, bro.
What's your take on this?
Casper.
The dude's name is Casper.
The girl's name is Casey.
He said P.S.
SPEAKER_02 (17:54):
That's my real name.
Holy shit.
Give me a minute.
SPEAKER_01 (18:06):
Oh my goodness, I'm choking.
It's not good.
It's not good.
SPEAKER_00 (18:13):
Oh my god.
SPEAKER_01 (18:14):
Oh Jesus, I tell you.
Okay, so Casper, first off,dude.
Dude.
Freaking sweet.
The letter was.
Oh my goodness.
Definitely something too.
Definitely something to get myshow started today.
SPEAKER_02 (18:32):
Dude.
SPEAKER_01 (18:33):
The crazy thing is, dude, you wrote this letter.
Oh my god.
I'm trying to keep this togetherfor y'all.
But I just don't know how totake shit like this, you know?
Because the sad thing is, it'strue.
There are people out there whoactually think that zombies are
(18:54):
real.
I assure you they are not.
But you can't tell people that.
Listen, when you drink too muchof the Kool-Aid or get too high
on your own supply, this is theending result.
SPEAKER_02 (19:07):
You feel me?
You feel what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01 (19:10):
I mean, the hell with Captain.
SPEAKER_02 (19:12):
This this shit is real.
Oh, Jesus.
SPEAKER_01 (19:16):
Oh, let me bring it back.
Let me bring it back.
So Castro, first off, as myselfand my late wife, when The
Walking Dead aired, which wasback in October of 2010, we
thought for sure that this worldwould happen.
(19:38):
It would be some kind ofapocalypse.
But keep in mind, the WalkingDead series has been around
forever ago for ages.
I mean, I can remember umlooking at um uh zombie movies
from back in the day.
Um and this is when I was uhthis is back when I was young
(20:01):
when I was a young one.
Uh when I was a young.
So this is nothing new.
The only difference is it's alot more in-depth um than it was
uh versus our time.
Because see, back then we it wasa lot more graphic, a little bit
more, you know, and we didn'thave all this hi-fi and the
(20:22):
sci-fi shit that we have today.
So of course, everything that'smade to look real is actually,
you know, it gets everybodythinking, you know, because when
we look at stuff like this, wethink, and we sit and think, and
we're like, holy shit, thiscould really happen.
And then we're all sittingaround here thinking, like, how
if this happened, what would wedo?
You know, so here's what I'mtelling you I gotta do, what I
(20:47):
would do.
I kid you not, I could besitting here on this podcast
right now, and one of my kidssay, Oh my god, dad, Cody bit
me.
You know what?
All I gotta hear.
(21:07):
Holy crap.
All I gotta hear is let me tellyou what's gonna happen.
I'm gonna play it for you first,and I'm gonna tell you what's
gonna happen.
Here we go.
All I gotta do is hear that, andthis is exactly what's gonna
happen.
(22:04):
Real talk.
If you didn't get it, then I'mgonna navigate it for you, okay?
This is how it's gonna go.
Let me navigate this thing foryou.
All I gotta do again is hear oneof my kids get bitten.
All I gotta hear is uh, and theystart shaking.
This is gonna happen.
This is me peeling out thedriveway.
(22:27):
This is me down the street.
This is me just sitting therewaiting to see if anybody got
affected.
That's me backing up to thehouse, checking on the kids,
seeing if any survivors arecoming out.
SPEAKER_02 (22:40):
This is me going down the street again, making
sure this shit ain't real.
SPEAKER_01 (22:46):
This is me just sitting there.
Okay, creeping back, creepingback.
Hold on, checking for survivorsagain.
There we go.
That's me getting the hell outof Dodge.
That's all I gotta hear.
You hear me?
(23:09):
I couldn't get my thoughtstogether to get it, but you guys
get what the point I'm trying tosay.
That's exactly what's gonnahappen, okay?
Oh my goodness.
Hold on.
SPEAKER_02 (23:20):
I gotta get some of that red diamond tea hold on.
SPEAKER_01 (23:30):
That is all I have to hear because let me tell you
something.
Remember, I told you guys withthe story about my wife when we
had first met and she had put afoil in the microwave and hauled
ass and left me.
I'm sorry.
If one of my kids is infected, Iknow they damn sure the rest of
them gonna be.
Because everybody wants to havea wait and see attitude and wait
(23:52):
and see what I'm not waiting tosee and shit.
I am out the door, okay?
And like I'm sitting in the carpacking up, trying to confirm
what just happened actuallyhappened.
So that's me, okay.
I'm trying to get to thisletter, but you know what,
y'all.
Y'all killing me.
Y'all killing me.
So, oh my gosh, Casper.
(24:14):
I don't know what to tell you,my man.
First off, dude, the name isfreaking electric.
It is freaking dope.
I like the name Casper, it isawesome.
It does not remind me of Casperthe Friendly Ghost, which maybe
that's why you girl hooked upwith you in the first damn
place, but reminds me of anactor on a movie that uh I
(24:35):
liked, and then of course weknew a kid back in our school,
we used to call him Casper.
Uh, it doesn't it wasn't becausehe was white, it was because of
something else.
But in any event, dude, I don'tknow what to make of this
letter.
Um the crazy thing is you're notalone in this because I've
actually heard people who talkabout this.
As I said before, there was oneyoung lady that I used to work
(24:58):
with, and she said her she saidher roommate thought she was a
real witch, like a real witch.
And I said, You gotta befreaking kidding me.
What is this?
And but I don't know how we getto a point where when we see
(25:19):
something, we think that it'sjust when we see something, I
don't understand how we get to aplace that we think it's real,
and we think it's real, but it'snot real.
And when we start believing thatit's real, it kind of just takes
over our mind because we thinkwe're in this conspiracy that
(25:40):
when we go out into the worldand we start seeing shit for
what it is, then we think it'sreal, and it's crazy because we
actually start believing it, andwhen we start believing it, then
it starts coming entwined in ourmind like, oh my god, this can
really happen.
This can really happen.
So and it's listen, The WalkingDead, some of these zombies that
(26:05):
came out, they're actually a lotbigger than what it was back in
the day.
I mean, if your girl sits aroundall day and thinks about death
and you know, zombies and stufflike that.
I don't even know if it if ithas been done.
If it is, you know, Americadon't tell us shit until the
last until something happens anydamn way.
All these movies that come outwhen they say they don't know
what happened, well, these areman-made diseases.
I mean, how else do these peopleget this way?
(26:27):
It damn sure not something inthe other atmosphere that's
coming down from like that.
Because clearly is, we wouldknow about it.
But America wouldn't tell usshit anyways.
We would all be down heredefending for ourselves, it'd be
like the real live walking deadaround here.
I mean, hell, people thoughtCOVID was the walking dead.
Listen, the day they reanimatesomebody um and bring them back
(26:47):
to life from the dead, likeliterally, then uh I'm gonna
tell you right now, I am on themothership to somewhere far the
hell away from here.
I mean, listen, this letter iscomical.
It's comical, it's funny, I loveit, and this is real for you.
I get it because back then whenthis show came out, well,
(27:09):
there's another show that cameout, and my wife heavily watched
this show.
Oh my god, she loved this show,and it was called Doomsday
Preppers.
Now, if any of you guys haveever seen this show, Doomsday
Preppers are they go into thesepeople's homes, and these are
people that kind of live off thegrid, um, that are not really in
(27:30):
tune with society, but thenagain, they are, but they live
out in the country.
So, in the event of a zombiepockets, I can't believe I'm
saying this shit.
The place where you definitelywant to head to would be would
be the countryside.
Oh my god, I kid you not, thetractor's playing right now.
It's called Area 51.
How ironic and screwed up isthat shit.
(27:51):
But I'm giving y'all notes likethis shit's gonna happen, okay?
But the show was it was a goodshow, it was on for four
seasons, um, and they would justshow people preparing for like
the apocalypse or a zombieoutbreak apocalypse.
And I kid you not.
I remember this this thisepisode one clearly because my
(28:15):
wife and I had this huge, notreally argument, but this guy
was like, So if your kid getsturned, are you gonna be the one
to put a bullet in her?
And the dude kind of hesitatebecause he was talking all this
shit, like, oh, you know, itcould be my family member, I'm
gonna put him down.
But when it came to hisdaughter, like his daughter was
like six or seven, and he'slike, So if she turns, are you
(28:38):
gonna put a bullet in her?
And then I was sitting there,like literally thinking about
it.
Like, I was like, dude, what thehell are you thinking about?
There's nothing there.
You can't raise a zombie.
What the hell?
What do you think's gonnahappen?
Y'all gonna have play dates?
You're gonna go for ice cream,she's gonna be in Tyler's NTR.
What the hell?
(28:58):
I mean, dude, like, literallysit there.
It is a real reality showbecause it's crazy.
I'm not sure how they find thesepeople or where these people
are, but the show was freakinghilarious, and these people were
really serious.
And I'm talking about they wereserious, they had like stuff
stored up in uh camps.
I mean, they had stuff upunderneath the grounds, I mean,
(29:20):
they had food for days, youknow.
Um, those um MV packs, thosearmy packs, they had this stuff
like stored up, and I was like,Oh my god, these people are
really getting because the crazything is, if this shit were to
happen, these are the peoplethat's gonna be prepared, and
people like me are gonna belike, damn, they they warned us,
they weren't, yeah, they warnedus, you know.
We didn't listen, we didn'tlisten at all.
(29:41):
So I'm gonna be one of thosepeople that's gonna be like
denier.
Meanwhile, Casper and hisgirlfriend.
SPEAKER_02 (29:49):
I mean, well, she might be off the reservation,
but Casper said, I'm out, dude.
Oh crap, hold on.
Let me hit this bait.
SPEAKER_01 (29:58):
Oh So the crazy thing is I've never seen a or
heard a letter.
Excuse me, you know, I've beenlaughing so hard that I don't
(30:20):
know what it is.
The crazy thing is, I have beengoing over this letter over and
over again and trying to askmyself if this is really real.
And I don't understand how itcan't be real because you have
people like that.
(30:41):
Now, if this is a relationship,Casper, that you choose to keep
with Casey.
The crazy thing is, I don'tunderstand how we keep finding
the names with the first letterbeing the same.
It's just weird for me.
It's not well, not really weird,but it's just oh my god, it's
different.
So oh excuse it.
See, I've been laughing so hardthat I'm hiccuping, and oh my
(31:06):
goodness.
Okay, so let me try to do thisfor you.
Here is the red flag for me.
Okay, I can get to the zombietalk or whatever, but then
again, I can't because it's notsome shit I want to hear every
damn day.
I mean, you two must be a reallygood couple, or there's
(31:28):
something about her that youtruly like.
I don't know if you think thatthis shit's gonna actually
happen, and she's one of thosedoomsday preppers that she's got
everything already figured out,and you want to kind of want to
stick with her.
That part I get, but I gotta behonest with you.
When the zombie shit hits, Iwon't even be on this podcast
anymore.
I mean, because technicallywe're gonna be without power
anyways, the world's gonna be inutter chaos.
(31:50):
People be looting, killing eachother.
It's gonna be like the purge allover again.
The real purge.
So we're gonna not only will wehave the purge going on, we're
gonna have the apocalypse andwe're gonna have zombies.
My black ass is going to headfor higher hills, and I'm going
to make a home somewhere where Ican't be found.
If my kids are with me and theyain't infected, hey, they ain't
infected, and we gotta go.
(32:11):
But nah, I'm kidding, y'all.
See, y'all gotta be talking likethis.
It's crazy.
Hold on.
Hmm.
I had to get that tea.
It's crazy.
It's crazy that I'm talking likethis because I really don't even
talk like this in the shit.
Me and my wife would go back andforth about this shit.
I mean, we would actually sitthere and think like what does
(32:32):
this happen?
Because we've seen all themovies that came out.
There was World War Z.
I know it's another that theylook at Zombieland one and two,
that was pretty good.
That was more believable than umthan the Walking Dead, and well,
World War Z was kind ofbelievable too.
Here's the thing about TheWalking Dead.
(32:54):
I love the show.
This is why you don't see a lotof black people on this show.
Because white folks, let me telly'all something.
Y'all have a wait and seeattitude, as I keep saying.
Y'all want to wait and seewhat's gonna happen.
Black folks, they will take offrunning, they will be like 10
states over, and meanwhile,you're sitting there getting
bit.
The thing that pissed me offabout the walking dead is that
there is a shitload of zombies,and these damn things can't even
(33:16):
run, they're not like thezombies in World War Z or
Zombieland 1 and 2, where theyrun after you.
They were slow walking, andthese people will get cornered
by these damn zombies, and thenit's like they get overwhelmed.
First off, you have the upperhand, you know.
Again, I can't believe I'mtalking like this, but damn it,
let's go ahead and indulge thisletter.
You have the upper hand.
If these things can't run, whyare we backing into the corner
(33:40):
just screaming?
Yeah, because screaming makeseverything better.
What are we screaming at?
Is that some kind of dialectthat they can understand?
No, they understand one thing,and they want to eat your damn
brain.
Okay, so this is why you don'tsee a lot of black folks on the
walking dead.
Maybe now you do, but listen,Jesus, do you think because I
(34:03):
wish they would make a versionof the walking dead, and they
think they uh uh they did.
Uh, it was a low budget uhversion, I think it was zombies
in Brooklyn's or whatever.
That's more believable becauseas we know, black folks don't
like to sit around and wait andsee what's gonna happen.
I mean, I kid you not.
If you guys ever seen thesezombie pranks on YouTube where
(34:25):
they play on black people, itdoes not go the way that they
think it goes.
Because black folks, they willbeat your ass first and then try
to figure out what the hell thisis later.
You know, white folks, y'allwant to sit there and try to
investigate every damn thing, aswell as y'all.
That's that's y'all.
Y'all can do that.
I'm gonna make sure when thezombie pocalypse happens.
I'm gonna have me a white personwith you because they're gonna
(34:46):
go wait and see, find out whathappens while you're waiting to
see it, and I'm running like twomiles up the road to see if you
got bit.
That way we gotta put somedistance between me and you.
So if you got bit, at least Igot a two-mile head start.
SPEAKER_02 (35:01):
Shit.
Oh my goodness.
Oh, goodness gracious.
SPEAKER_01 (35:07):
So that is me, okay?
That's me.
I mean, listen.
Oh, god, I love you whitepeople.
I do.
Because y'all make everything socomical, you know.
When you get bit, it's like, oh,instead of just looking at it
like and cutting off, oh mygoodness.
See y'all, see what y'all got medoing.
(35:28):
Instead of y'all just cutting itoff like with the first second,
y'all sit there and look at itand wait for it to spread, you
know.
Oh my god.
I tell you, The Walking Deadreally did a number on me
because I don't even watch theshow anymore, and I think it's
still a good show, but it's justsomething that like I just can't
(35:52):
believe like if this reallyhappened, this is what the world
would be, you know, becausefirst and foremost, everybody's
gonna click up anyways.
You know, there was anothermovie, what was it?
Black Summer.
First season was good, secondseason hated it.
Okay, because again, thesezombies aren't running, so
clearly you have the upper hand.
(36:14):
Now, Casper, getting back toyour letter, because I keep
getting sidetracked becausethese zombie stories and the
zombie talk.
My friend, I am trying to makesense of this, but here's what's
so weird (36:26):
the fact that you named your cat Mr.
T is freaking awesome.
I mean, my cat, her name isBella, and she's kind of an ass.
She has a personality, shedoesn't like to be pet.
She only likes she'll make youwork for her affection.
But Mr.
T sounds like a pretty awesomecat.
When you came in the kitchen,you was ready to light her ass
up just on principle alonebecause she was eating uh red
meat, which you thought was acat, which I'm a cat, because if
(36:50):
it was, I would expect thisletter to be coming like from
some kind of either mentalinstitution or some kind of
prison.
But I don't even see how that'seven possible.
I mean, I do know people eat rawmeat, but hamburger?
Because she wanted to see whatbrain.
How do you actually know whatbrain tastes like?
(37:11):
I would be more scared to be inthe bed with her at night while
you're sleeping, okay?
Or be scared around her at allin the house.
Y'all don't have any kids.
I already know you don't,because you damn sure didn't say
anything about Larry havingkids.
So you're 26, she's gotta besomewhere around the same age as
you.
So I'm just curious, and yousaid you asked what the hell are
(37:33):
you doing, Casey?
She replied.
She said, I if I turn, I want tosee how brain tastes like.
First off, hamburger does notresemble brain.
Okay, this ain't Silence of theLambs, okay?
That something totallydifferent.
I don't even see how the hell Iwould be more concerned.
I want to know what she does fora living because if she works in
a mortuary, that is a huge redflag.
(37:53):
Huge red flag.
And if she works in a mortuary,I got one word for you.
Run.
Run, run, run like hell, andrun.
You know, I would even go so faras to change my name and social
security number.
You know, I'd probably moveabout maybe.
I'm not even sure where the helly'all stay at, but wherever
she's at, I wouldn't be.
(38:15):
I would be probably in 10 statesover.
My black ass would probablyconvert to being a monk.
That's how serious it would getfrom me.
This girl would probably dodamage to me, real talk.
She do some real damage to me.
Because if I had a female likethat, yeah, I caught her in the
kitchen.
I gotta be honest with you, man.
I probably would let her let herlet her ass up anyways because
she's in there eating raw meat,and I would have thought she was
(38:37):
a burglar.
So, I mean, at least I have agood well, you know, I thought
she was a burglar, so you know Idid light her up, you know.
I mean, but then again, I gotcameras in my kitchen, so you
know, they probably would havesaw right through that.
In any event, that's what Iwould have done.
I mean, my god, I don't know.
I I I don't even I can't say ifI hope if y'all are or not still
(38:58):
together.
I hope this is a phase for herbecause you know we all go
through phases when we go whenwe grow up, uh, or when we're
trying to figure ourselvesbecause you sound like you're in
your well, you're in your late20s, later 20s, well, somewhere
in between.
So she's gotta be coming intoher own.
So it's weird.
And you said you talked to herabout it, and I don't know if
(39:19):
what she's saying is serious.
Sounds like she's serious to me.
It sounds like she is not givingthis any second of thought as to
when she's turned, how the hellshe's gonna find you.
I don't even know how that'seven possible.
Last time I checked, they don'thave bloodhound zombies.
Then again, there was that movieAnimal Zombies.
I didn't watch that, butwhatever.
I mean, this chick sounds likeshe's really, really like a
(39:41):
fatal attraction type of chick.
So I don't know how you guys metor how y'all even got on this
subject.
Me personally, my black asswould be gone.
I would have to tell her.
I mean, god, I'm sitting theretrying to the sad thing is I'm
trying to figure out how y'allas y'all how y'all day-to-day
life, how y'all navigate.
Like, what do y'all do iny'all's day-to-day life?
I mean, she's got to be.
(40:05):
I wanna well, she's gotta bedressed.
Well, no, I don't think she'sgotta be dressed up in black.
I think she's just too enrichedto.
I mean, I can imagine because mywife had the walking dead
t-shirt.
I think she had the walkingdead, um, the walking dead
blanket.
I even bought her Negan's bat,the replica bat, not the real
thing, because you know sheain't gonna hit me up here no
damn real bat, even though wegot real bats, and she did
(40:27):
decide to turn one of the batsinto Lucille.
Uh, that was a Halloween prank,and yeah, yeah.
But it's crazy that I read thisletter and I just could not stop
thinking about everything thatyou were talking about.
And I'm sitting here, and thecrazy thing I was picturing
about how you came into thiskitchen and she's in the kitchen
(40:49):
with the refrigerator over,sitting on the floor, and
there's blood, and you thoughtit was Mr.
T, which crazy.
Again, I would have let her assup on principle alone.
I'm sorry.
Maybe hit her in the shoulder,not in the head, you know,
because if you hit her in thehead, you wanna, you know, she
might not come back from that.
But then again, she is talkinglike she's a real zombie, so and
(41:10):
again, she probably would havecame back from that.
So I you know what?
I don't know.
I don't know.
You gotta be talking crazy up inhere, okay?
It's crazy.
You know, I love my listeners, Iappreciate you guys, but y'all
gotta be doing some crazy shit.
But I love it.
I love it.
I'm gonna keep doing it becausey'all send me this shit and I'm
gonna indulge every minute ofit.
So, my take on this, huh?
(41:31):
My take on this, Mr.
Casper, dude, do what you gottado.
I mean, me personally, I donedipped a long time ago.
And me coming to the kitchen isjust icing the cake, finding her
eating red meat, that's justicing the cake.
I'm trying to figure out how yousleep at night.
I don't know if y'all have atwo-bedroom apartment or
one-bedroom apartment.
I don't know if you sleeping,excuse me, in the bathroom with
(41:54):
the door locked, or if yousleeping somewhere else.
Because I gotta say, thiscouldn't be me.
I'd have been like, yeah, uh,I'd been working some pretty
late night shifts, if you knowwhat I mean.
Some pretty late night shifts.
So I'd have been like, yeah, butit sounds like this girl, either
(42:15):
you're about to be her firstvictim.
I mean, man, thank god shedidn't say vampires.
That probably would have been, Idon't know, what's worse.
Well, vampire you can come backfrom, but though they're not
even real.
You know what?
I'm up here thinking about thisshit like it's really happening.
Because you know, you actuallyhave some people who think they
are vampires.
Oh my goodness, but thank godthat's not even real.
But I don't know.
(42:36):
I think vampires might be alittle bit better than a zombie.
At least a zombie they don't eatprains, vampires just suck your
blood and you just turn, huh?
Interesting.
Why the hell am I thinking aboutthis shit?
This is crazy, y'all.
It's crazy.
I mean, listen, I'm gonna postthis.
When you guys hear this, I wanty'all's comments.
I want somebody to email me andtell me what y'all would do in
(42:59):
this situation.
I mean, I know we have peoplethat believe in their own, like
their shit don't stink.
I get that part, but how do youguys feel about this whole
zombie thing?
I mean, I know some of y'allgonna say, well, it's stupid,
it's not real, and it's not.
I just want y'all to indulge me,you know, humor me, you know,
(43:19):
because this is what we do, andit's fun, it's fun to talk
about, you know.
When people see stuff in themovies, we often think about if
this could really happen.
I mean, we see a lot of shit inthe movies that we think are
like so close to the truth, andthat and then we know just one
day it's gonna happen.
Do I think zombie apocalypsewill happen?
I don't know.
I honestly don't know.
(43:40):
Because again, if it doeshappen, America will not tell
us.
America will just probably justand the crazy thing is they will
probably release a zombie into ablack neighborhood before they
would a white neighborhood.
Races that might say, yes,because they're trying to wipe
us out.
No, I'm just joking.
I'm kidding, y'all.
Okay, listen, if you put azombie in a black neighborhood,
(44:03):
it's not gonna go the way youthink it's gonna go, okay?
They're gonna whoop his ass onprinciple alone, okay?
He's gonna get dealt with.
Now, white neighborhood, that'sdifferent because you got one
zombie and you got a wholefamily.
So this whole family is huddledinto a corner while this one
zombie is trying to get at thefamily.
And when the one zombie gets atthe one family member, everybody
else is standing around watchingand screaming and hollering.
(44:24):
Black folks, Mexicans, hell,maybe even Chinese, because I've
seen that movie.
What was that?
Train of Bosnia, that was a goodmovie.
I mean, they fight, they fight.
I'm sorry, white folks.
Y'all just like to get bit andscream and then whine and cry
and don't want to do anything,you know.
But you know, unless y'all gethooked up with some uh some real
backwoods people out in thecountry, then you know, y'all
(44:45):
might have a fighting chance.
But black folks, Mexicans, hell,even the Asians already have a
chance because they fight.
I mean, we've been fighting allour lives, so this ain't nothing
new.
Zombie, what?
What you want to do this?
Okay, yeah, all right.
You know, because there ain't notalking, you know.
There's a lot of swinging,probably machine guns or guns or
whatever, and that's just gonnahappen.
And we're just gonna go aboutour normal day.
(45:05):
It's gonna be a party at the endof the week, you know, because
we done racked up and cleanedup, you know.
Meanwhile, my wife folks, y'allstill in the corner screaming,
you know, because little Timmygot bit or little Sarah got
Aiden, and you're trying tofigure out what you did wrong as
a parent, which has nothing todo with being bit.
Nothing.
I mean, y'all want to ask why.
Here's here's the why.
(45:26):
You stood there, you watched,you could have took.
I mean, y'all got an arsenalfull of guns.
We didn't think to pull one ofthem out the case, cock that bad
boy up and open open season.
Oh my gosh, this shit is crazy,y'all.
Why are y'all doing this to me?
Oh my goodness.
(45:48):
So, okay.
SPEAKER_00 (45:56):
Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER_01 (45:59):
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
Okay, so Casper.
I hope you got an answer thatyou do.
I'm sorry, this letter was justtoo good to pass through it.
It was a good letter, it wascomical.
I'm just trying to figure outwhat I could give you advice.
If you have already left thisgirl, good for you.
(46:19):
Me personally, I would have beensleeping with two eyes open.
I couldn't deal with no shitlike this.
I honestly can't, and I don'teven like drama because the
minute a girl told me that shebelieves in zombies, that's
fine.
You can believe in zombies, butyou don't have to start living
the life as if it's actuallyhappening.
Now, if you want to live thatlife and actually this happened,
you can do that shit byyourself, or better yet, go find
(46:41):
some other people that do that.
I mean, listen, we all like tobelieve in sci-fi and fantasy,
and that's fine.
It's it's it's fun to do, butwhen the shit starts getting
real and it started affectingyour life and affecting the way
we do business or how ourrelationship is, I can't deal.
I gotta be honest with you.
I'm gonna I'm gonna dip, I'mgonna bounce.
(47:01):
And as much as I don't want tolook back, I'll probably let it
be like, damn, this girl'scrazy.
I mean, listen, I will come findyou if the zombie outbreak
happens, so that way you couldbe like, I told you so, and then
I know that at least I'm withyou, I got a chance of survival
raid.
SPEAKER_00 (47:18):
Because I could be like, Oh, you know, she did tell
me, yeah, yeah, she told me.
SPEAKER_01 (47:22):
Damn it, damn it.
You know, and then I willworship the ground that you walk
on.
But until then, I am just goingto be like, No, hard no.
I wish that you can send me apicture of you too.
I wonder what she went for withHalloween.
I could pretty much already telland I already know.
You know, I wonder what theday-to-day life, I mean, does
(47:44):
she really eat does she even eatmeat?
Probably not, she's probablyvegetarian.
That probably sounds plausible.
I mean, just because you tastean hamburger, that has no effect
on a human brain.
I really want to know where thisyoung lady works.
But, dude, listen.
Uh, hold on, let me get some ofmy red diamond tea.
(48:05):
I know I love my red diamond.
The crazy thing is, I wasthinking about putting some
scary music behind this, but Iwas like, nah, I ain't got time
for all that because I mightfreak myself out.
And then in the process, my kidsmight knock on the doors and
might scare the shit out of me,and then again, yeah, I know
what y'all gonna hear in theprocess.
SPEAKER_00 (48:28):
So while I appreciate this letter, oh my
goodness, this was a good one.
SPEAKER_01 (48:35):
Keep them coming, folks.
Keep them coming because there'sno right, there's no wrong.
You know, I get a nice littlesize portion of letters a week,
and I try to go through as muchas I can, but you guys know I do
have to work.
I am a single father, and I gotthree kids still take care of
that are still in school.
They're in high school.
(48:56):
Well, two of them are justmaking it to high school, and of
course, my boys are older, butI'm still a parent, so I'm
trying to get to everybody'sletters, you know, do my notes,
do my research, and then kind ofput you guys up on it.
So I appreciate that you guysare just you know giving me an
opportunity to hear my voice,and I appreciate that you guys
(49:18):
the love that you guys show meon my podcast.
Now, as we know, uh Instagramlaunched a new platform, which I
guess is gonna probably putTwitter out of business, which
I'm certainly it will, and it'scalled Threads.
I am still getting the hang ofit.
I was not a big Twitter fan, I'mstill not a big Twitter fan,
(49:38):
Twitter fan, and I'm not areally big threads fan, but it's
pretty cool.
Um, but my Instagram pages arestill up, um, all three of them.
You know, I got Endeavor Empire,the Facebook page, I don't
really have a lot of hits on.
I get more hits off Instagramthan I do Facebook.
I wonder why, but then again, Idon't, I'm being sarcastic.
(50:00):
But the Facebook page, it'llremain up, but most of the
posting and stuff will gotowards Instagram.
Um, so my links are always um inthe podcast description.
You guys can feel free tocomment, like, send me a
message, and my email as well.
Again, I appreciate um the fansthat listen to me from all over,
(50:24):
not just here in America, but inthe Philippines, Asia.
Uh, there's even some in Africa.
Oh my gosh.
Shout out to you guys.
But feel free to email meletters.
Um, I love to read letters, Ilove to hear your fan mail.
Um, I do have some shows comingup that's probably not gonna be
(50:45):
good for.
Well, I'm not gonna say they'renot gonna be good, they're just
you know, some people that don'treally think too highly of my
podcast, which is fine becauseeverybody's entitled to their
own opinion.
But I want to read, I just don'twant to read the letters that I
get that are good.
I want to read all the lettersthat are kind of in between, or
letters that that people thinkyou know that are not so good,
(51:06):
because I want to give everybodya fair share.
So I'm not made that way, youknow.
I'm not I don't do this for themoney or the cash.
I do this because it's fun, andme and my wife started this
thing.
So as we get ready to close thisout, this show out.
Oh my gosh, freaking awesome,freaking yes, yes, yes, yes.
(51:31):
So, I want to say to Casper,dude, if you wanna get back with
me, kind of give me a follow-up.
You know, that's what I likedoing with people.
When you guys send me lettersand I do your letters, uh, do
your podcast.
If you can guys can give me likea follow-up, because we don't
(51:52):
have to do the whole episode offollow-up.
I mean, there's gonna be onepodcast where we're just gonna
do follow-up letters fromprevious episodes because I know
just some of the listeners, youknow, they're like me, they
wonder, and they wonder, well,what happened here or what
happened there?
I did receive a follow-up um toone of the shows, but I'm not
gonna tell you who.
You just have to stay tuned forthe episode, and then I will let
(52:14):
you know who that is becauseit's gonna be interesting.
It's good, not bad.
Well, maybe in between, but Ilike to do follow-ups, and it
doesn't have to be a longparagraph, it can just be
something short and sweet, youknow.
That way I can give my listenersand myself, not really closure,
but just to say, hey, here's anupdate on so-and-so, this is how
(52:35):
they're doing, this is what theydid.
So, Casper, I am clearly,clearly interested to see how
you and Casey kind of fathomthis relationship out.
You know, I don't again, thename, Casper and Casey.
I think that's free.
That's that's freaking sweet.
So I want to I want to followup, man.
I want to follow up.
(52:55):
I want you to tell me, give me alittle bit more background how
this is how this is going, howthis is doing, if you decide to
change the things, or if youdecided to just ride this out.
I mean, I don't know what kindof young lady she is, because
you only gave me bits and piecesabout the zombie thing, but she
sounds like a pretty okay girl,aside from the zombie part.
But you know, that's that'sthat's that's just you.
(53:16):
You know, I don't I don't know.
It's freaking sweet, man.
I freaking love it.
Oh my gosh.
So my friends, as we get readyto close it out, all my links
(53:37):
are in the podcast description.
Feel free to email me atd6mpire357 at gmail.com.
If you have any comments,scribes, or questions, hey, I'm
here.
Let's hear it.
So, my friends, until next time,you guys take care of yourself
(53:57):
and each other.
God bless you all.
And until we see each otheragain in the next one, y'all
have a good one.
Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
SPEAKER_01 (04:57):
Ah, snap.
How's everybody doing out there?
It's been a good day.
It's been a good week.
I hope you guys have had afantastic day, a fantastic week.
I know I have some crazy shittoday.
You know.
(05:18):
Today at work.
So amazed about how chill peopleare, you know?
So let's head into a transferstation.
For those of you guys who don'tknow, I am a roll-off driver, a
roll-off truck driver.
Um, maybe you guys know whatthat is.
If not, I will give you a briefrundown.
(05:39):
So, what I do for a living isthat I pick up we call them
cans, but they're actuallydumpsters.
The company I work for, wedeliver 40 yards, 30 yards, 20
yards, uh, 12 yards, and uh 8yard dumpsters.
So, the crazy thing is I washeaded to the transfer station.
(06:01):
Transfer station is where we goto dump the trash, and then more
trucks take the trash and hauloff to a secret location where I
have no idea.
I'm just talking, I'm kidding.
I don't know what they do withthis shit.
It's trash, yeah.
My job is just to pick up adump.
In any event, tell you what,Jesus.
So I was headed to the transferstation.
You know, of course, this whitethick smoke filled the air.
(06:24):
I just thought it was nothing.
I just thought one of thefactories was just, you know,
blowing off steam as they alwaysdo.
I kid you not.
I'm driving down the road to theright of me as a gas station, a
big gas station, right next to apost office.
Uh, this guy's car is literallyon fire.
Now, the crazy thing is, is thatwell, it's an it's another day,
(06:45):
it's just another day inparadise.
But the most sinister andcrazier thing is that his car
was on fire at a gas station.
Okay, this gas station hasroughly about maybe 12 12 pumps,
and they're double stacked.
So, well, maybe it's more thanthat.
I don't know.
Could be 12, could be a littlebit more than that.
(07:07):
In any event, I kid you not,people are still pumping their
gas while this car is engulfedin flames.
Now, mind you, the car issitting at a gas pump, and
they're like, uh, you know,still gotta get gas.
So me, as I'm driving, I'mlooking for the wow factor, you
know, the the big boom.
Because I didn't see a firetruck, an ambulance, or nothing
(07:31):
in sight.
So I'm like, I guess it's one ofthose days.
I mean, it's hot as helloutside, nobody feels like
working, car goes up in flames.
We just want to keep filling upour cars.
Now, me personally, if I seenshit like that, I'm in the car.
I'm in the car in the truck andI'm hauling ass because you
know, gas is combustible, so younever know what the hell's gonna
happen.
There's so much unpredictable,and yeah, I know there's fail
(07:52):
safes in the pumps, but still,you know, it all it takes is
that one wrong person and goahead and light this cigarette
up, and then you got one firealready going, and here comes
another one.
This is the big grand finale,you know.
I thought for sure this shit wasgonna be on the news, but eh, I
guess it wasn't.
So that was my day, you know,fun day, but hot.
(08:13):
You know, I'm not sure what partof the country you guys are, but
we are in the heart of America,and it is hot.
Oh, it was so hot.
I mean, I seen a bird justflying, and he just crashed out
into the into what I thought wasa pond, but he was met with very
disappointment because when hegot down, it was nothing but
dust.
(08:33):
So he might have even thought hewas seeing shit.
You know, how like you're in thedesert and you think you see
water.
Well, that's the way he felt, sowhatever.
I tell you, boy, it is someweird shit going on in this
world today, you know, and asthe days go by, it just gets
(08:55):
weirder and weirder, you know.
See, back in our day it was morecivil, more civilized.
We didn't have this kind ofshit, you know.
I mean, if we did, we knew howto deal with it, right?
So, before we get to the showand the letter, I'm gonna give
you guys one more thing.
So, I kid you not, Jesus.
As I'm scrolling throughInstagram, apparently there are
all types of people that havebeef with each other, and
(09:17):
unbeknownst to me, I didn't knowthe uh the deaf people have beef
too.
I've never seen that shitbefore.
That's something you don't evensee.
I mean, you see it on TV, butthat's like a controlled
environment.
So I'm pretty sure if you guyshave or have not seen this video
that circle around on uh IG orSnap or whatever, Facebook,
(09:39):
whatever.
It is, I kid you not, Jesus.
And I couldn't really laughbecause I was trying to figure
out is this real?
So there are three women, andthey are hearing impaired, and
they were on either FacebookLive, I think it was Facebook
Live, and apparently they werebeefing with somebody.
Who they were beefing with, Ihave no idea.
All I got was in sign language,and they were doing the you
(10:04):
know, okay, so like the thingthat does the Undertaker where
you cut uh like you're gonna cuthis head off, and if he he goes
across his neck, that was goingon.
I kid you not, I spent a wholedamn hour trying to interpret
what they were saying.
I came up with zero, zeroresults.
You hear me?
Zero results, and I mean thecrazy thing is this beef was so
(10:24):
real.
I was like, is this reallyhappening, dude?
That people really beef, andthen she had pointed down to her
dudes down at the end of thestairs.
I mean, they gotta be eitherDominican or Mexican or whatever
the hell they are.
I don't really care.
I just never seen that shitbefore, and I thought that was
like, really?
What the hell?
What does this?
I mean, I didn't even think theybeef with people like that.
(10:47):
I mean, sure, you know, mysister's disabled, and she's
just mean, she's mean for noreason.
I mean, we try to get her to benice, but she's just honory as
hell.
I mean, I don't know why, but Istill love her and she's my
sister.
But apparently, people from allwalks of life can have issues
with somebody.
I to this day don't know whothey were dealing with or who
(11:07):
they were talking to, and ofcourse, the comment section went
crazy.
You know, there were comments onthere that I I shouldn't have
laughed at that I did laugh at,but I didn't laugh too hard
because it's just weird becauseyou never see this shit, you
know.
And this is what brings you toto the show that we're gonna
have today, or that we're doing.
I'm sorry, I didn't even give anintroduction.
(11:28):
For those of y'all who don'tknow, my name is Derek, I am
Endeavour Empire.
Welcome to the show.
I'm sorry, I've just beenrambling on about this, rambling
on about that, and I don't know,it's just been a weird, weird
week and a weird day, you know.
It's just been going crazy, andthe shit that I see, I'm just
like amazed, you know.
And I'm like, how does this evenwork?
(11:51):
I mean, the whole thing is I sithere for an hour trying to
figure out the translation ofthe sign language.
If that wasn't worse enough, Iwas trying to figure out I was
looking for more videos to seeif they actually went to go do
what they say they were gonnado.
I don't even know how thishappened.
I'm not gonna read none of thecomments because to some it
might be funny, but to others,I'm not trying to poke fun at
the hearing impair because Irespect all people.
(12:12):
I know it's not funny, but mygod, the comments were like I
mean, it was like ComedyCentral.
I mean, on a Wednesday, so gofigure.
In any event, this brings me tothis brings me to a letter that
(12:32):
was submitted by a listener umthat apparently is going through
some weird shit in hisrelationship.
Uh shit is so weird, I've neverheard of this before.
I mean, kinda sorta, but notreally.
But when I read this letter thefirst time, I was like
completely in awe and amazed,and I was trying to get more
(12:55):
clarification from the guy thatwrote this letter.
Um, because clearly, clearly, Ithought that this couldn't be
real, but I tell you what, whenI get through reading this
letter, I can assure you thatit's I think it is real.
Um, because as I've shared withstories before about some people
believing or drinking too muchof their own damn Kool-Aid shit
(13:18):
is real.
So this guy's name, well no.
Yeah, this guy's name is Casper.
Um, which is ironic enough whenI read this letter, um, because
it gets really weird.
And I gotta be honest with you.
(13:40):
This is some shit I don't evenget down on.
But you know what?
I indulge my listeners, so Iwill indulge this letter.
Without further ado, here we go.
Uh, Derek.
Hey, how are you?
Have you ever been with someonewho constantly believes in
something that is totally notreal?
Here is my problem.
(14:00):
This guy's been dating for thebetter part of five months.
Thinks zombies are real.
Yep, as well as everybody elsedoes.
I don't know how we ended uptogether because clearly she has
issues.
Until this day, I don'tunderstand how we talk how the
talk of zombies came up.
She's definitely one of thosethat if you tell her something
that's fiction, then she triesto explain as if it's really
(14:23):
happening right now.
Like, take for instance TheWalking Dead.
You've seen it, yeah, we've allseen The Walking Dead.
She thinks that it willdefinitely happen.
Oh yeah, as well as everybodyelse, you know.
I told her that it's clearly notimp that it's clearly not
possible.
And she said, wait and see, thenI would be thanking her.
And I'm like, what the hell?
(14:44):
Thanking her for a zombieapocalypse?
Seriously?
Who makes this shit up?
She loves Rob Zombie.
Do you know who Rob do you knowwho that is?
I know who Rob Zombie is.
That dude is awesome.
He's freaking electric.
I like his music.
And listen to various listen tovarious podcasts about zombie.
Dude, what the hell?
(15:07):
This is crazy.
This is crazy, y'all.
It's crazy.
I don't even do this shit, butit's crazy.
One day she scared the hell outof me, and I saw her I saw her
eating raw red meat like 2 a.m.
in the fucking morning.
These are his words, not mine,because you know I don't use the
(15:27):
word every word on my podcast,but whatever.
So I'm reading his letter inentirety.
So keep in mind when I found herin the kitchen eating eating it,
I was like, what the I thoughtshe was eating the fucking cat.
Who eats a cat?
I had a bat in my hand and Ialmost laid her the fuck out
(15:48):
with no hesitation.
I lost it.
But thankful.
Mr.
T was alright.
Your cat?
Is it name Mr.
T?
Oh my god.
This is crazy.
I asked her, what the hell areyou doing, Casey?
She replies I was seeing if Iwould turn into a zombie.
I would praise taste.
(16:09):
What the hell?
Dude, I don't get to know thisshit.
It's getting to the point whereI've had enough.
I don't know what was your firstclue.
I can't even watch a dumbassscary movie because of what she
would say or do.
In the beginning it was cool.
All we really watch were moviesabout zombies.
(16:31):
Is this what the world is comingto?
I'm 26 years old.
And I'm not old enough to knowwhen when the zombie thing when
the zombie thing is a thing.
I can't deal with this shit.
Check this.
Ah god, you know I try to keepthis shit together.
Check this shit out.
So I talked to her and told herthat this shit is too weird for
(16:52):
me.
And I'm about to dip.
Do you know what the hell shesaid to me?
Oh, she said it's okay.
When I turn I'll come fight you.
I'll bite you.
Who the hell writes this shit?
Who does this?
Is this just real?
(17:12):
Oh my god.
Do you know I left everything inthe fucking house?
Got in my car and dipped out.
If I had wings, I would haveflown, but then again, I left so
damn quickly.
I was flying either either way.
Or I was clearly I.
Nigga, you say you wasn't I?
Man, Derek.
Um I don't know who or what Igot myself into, but clearly I
(17:37):
think it's going to be a bit ofa ride date.
Maybe a week or two.
Listen, man.
You said we could email youabout anything, bro.
What's your take on this?
Casper.
The dude's name is Casper.
The girl's name is Casey.
He said P.S.
SPEAKER_02 (17:54):
That's my real name.
Holy shit.
Give me a minute.
SPEAKER_01 (18:06):
Oh my goodness, I'm choking.
It's not good.
It's not good.
SPEAKER_00 (18:13):
Oh my god.
SPEAKER_01 (18:14):
Oh Jesus, I tell you.
Okay, so Casper, first off,dude.
Dude.
Freaking sweet.
The letter was.
Oh my goodness.
Definitely something too.
Definitely something to get myshow started today.
SPEAKER_02 (18:32):
Dude.
SPEAKER_01 (18:33):
The crazy thing is, dude, you wrote this letter.
Oh my god.
I'm trying to keep this togetherfor y'all.
But I just don't know how totake shit like this, you know?
Because the sad thing is, it'strue.
There are people out there whoactually think that zombies are
(18:54):
real.
I assure you they are not.
But you can't tell people that.
Listen, when you drink too muchof the Kool-Aid or get too high
on your own supply, this is theending result.
SPEAKER_02 (19:07):
You feel me?
You feel what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01 (19:10):
I mean, the hell with Captain.
SPEAKER_02 (19:12):
This this shit is real.
Oh, Jesus.
SPEAKER_01 (19:16):
Oh, let me bring it back.
Let me bring it back.
So Castro, first off, as myselfand my late wife, when The
Walking Dead aired, which wasback in October of 2010, we
thought for sure that this worldwould happen.
(19:38):
It would be some kind ofapocalypse.
But keep in mind, the WalkingDead series has been around
forever ago for ages.
I mean, I can remember umlooking at um uh zombie movies
from back in the day.
Um and this is when I was uhthis is back when I was young
(20:01):
when I was a young one.
Uh when I was a young.
So this is nothing new.
The only difference is it's alot more in-depth um than it was
uh versus our time.
Because see, back then we it wasa lot more graphic, a little bit
more, you know, and we didn'thave all this hi-fi and the
(20:22):
sci-fi shit that we have today.
So of course, everything that'smade to look real is actually,
you know, it gets everybodythinking, you know, because when
we look at stuff like this, wethink, and we sit and think, and
we're like, holy shit, thiscould really happen.
And then we're all sittingaround here thinking, like, how
if this happened, what would wedo?
You know, so here's what I'mtelling you I gotta do, what I
(20:47):
would do.
I kid you not, I could besitting here on this podcast
right now, and one of my kidssay, Oh my god, dad, Cody bit
me.
You know what?
All I gotta hear.
(21:07):
Holy crap.
All I gotta hear is let me tellyou what's gonna happen.
I'm gonna play it for you first,and I'm gonna tell you what's
gonna happen.
Here we go.
All I gotta do is hear that, andthis is exactly what's gonna
happen.
(22:04):
Real talk.
If you didn't get it, then I'mgonna navigate it for you, okay?
This is how it's gonna go.
Let me navigate this thing foryou.
All I gotta do again is hear oneof my kids get bitten.
All I gotta hear is uh, and theystart shaking.
This is gonna happen.
This is me peeling out thedriveway.
(22:27):
This is me down the street.
This is me just sitting therewaiting to see if anybody got
affected.
That's me backing up to thehouse, checking on the kids,
seeing if any survivors arecoming out.
SPEAKER_02 (22:40):
This is me going down the street again, making
sure this shit ain't real.
SPEAKER_01 (22:46):
This is me just sitting there.
Okay, creeping back, creepingback.
Hold on, checking for survivorsagain.
There we go.
That's me getting the hell outof Dodge.
That's all I gotta hear.
You hear me?
(23:09):
I couldn't get my thoughtstogether to get it, but you guys
get what the point I'm trying tosay.
That's exactly what's gonnahappen, okay?
Oh my goodness.
Hold on.
SPEAKER_02 (23:20):
I gotta get some of that red diamond tea hold on.
SPEAKER_01 (23:30):
That is all I have to hear because let me tell you
something.
Remember, I told you guys withthe story about my wife when we
had first met and she had put afoil in the microwave and hauled
ass and left me.
I'm sorry.
If one of my kids is infected, Iknow they damn sure the rest of
them gonna be.
Because everybody wants to havea wait and see attitude and wait
(23:52):
and see what I'm not waiting tosee and shit.
I am out the door, okay?
And like I'm sitting in the carpacking up, trying to confirm
what just happened actuallyhappened.
So that's me, okay.
I'm trying to get to thisletter, but you know what,
y'all.
Y'all killing me.
Y'all killing me.
So, oh my gosh, Casper.
(24:14):
I don't know what to tell you,my man.
First off, dude, the name isfreaking electric.
It is freaking dope.
I like the name Casper, it isawesome.
It does not remind me of Casperthe Friendly Ghost, which maybe
that's why you girl hooked upwith you in the first damn
place, but reminds me of anactor on a movie that uh I
(24:35):
liked, and then of course weknew a kid back in our school,
we used to call him Casper.
Uh, it doesn't it wasn't becausehe was white, it was because of
something else.
But in any event, dude, I don'tknow what to make of this
letter.
Um the crazy thing is you're notalone in this because I've
actually heard people who talkabout this.
As I said before, there was oneyoung lady that I used to work
(24:58):
with, and she said her she saidher roommate thought she was a
real witch, like a real witch.
And I said, You gotta befreaking kidding me.
What is this?
And but I don't know how we getto a point where when we see
(25:19):
something, we think that it'sjust when we see something, I
don't understand how we get to aplace that we think it's real,
and we think it's real, but it'snot real.
And when we start believing thatit's real, it kind of just takes
over our mind because we thinkwe're in this conspiracy that
(25:40):
when we go out into the worldand we start seeing shit for
what it is, then we think it'sreal, and it's crazy because we
actually start believing it, andwhen we start believing it, then
it starts coming entwined in ourmind like, oh my god, this can
really happen.
This can really happen.
So and it's listen, The WalkingDead, some of these zombies that
(26:05):
came out, they're actually a lotbigger than what it was back in
the day.
I mean, if your girl sits aroundall day and thinks about death
and you know, zombies and stufflike that.
I don't even know if it if ithas been done.
If it is, you know, Americadon't tell us shit until the
last until something happens anydamn way.
All these movies that come outwhen they say they don't know
what happened, well, these areman-made diseases.
I mean, how else do these peopleget this way?
(26:27):
It damn sure not something inthe other atmosphere that's
coming down from like that.
Because clearly is, we wouldknow about it.
But America wouldn't tell usshit anyways.
We would all be down heredefending for ourselves, it'd be
like the real live walking deadaround here.
I mean, hell, people thoughtCOVID was the walking dead.
Listen, the day they reanimatesomebody um and bring them back
(26:47):
to life from the dead, likeliterally, then uh I'm gonna
tell you right now, I am on themothership to somewhere far the
hell away from here.
I mean, listen, this letter iscomical.
It's comical, it's funny, I loveit, and this is real for you.
I get it because back then whenthis show came out, well,
(27:09):
there's another show that cameout, and my wife heavily watched
this show.
Oh my god, she loved this show,and it was called Doomsday
Preppers.
Now, if any of you guys haveever seen this show, Doomsday
Preppers are they go into thesepeople's homes, and these are
people that kind of live off thegrid, um, that are not really in
(27:30):
tune with society, but thenagain, they are, but they live
out in the country.
So, in the event of a zombiepockets, I can't believe I'm
saying this shit.
The place where you definitelywant to head to would be would
be the countryside.
Oh my god, I kid you not, thetractor's playing right now.
It's called Area 51.
How ironic and screwed up isthat shit.
(27:51):
But I'm giving y'all notes likethis shit's gonna happen, okay?
But the show was it was a goodshow, it was on for four
seasons, um, and they would justshow people preparing for like
the apocalypse or a zombieoutbreak apocalypse.
And I kid you not.
I remember this this thisepisode one clearly because my
(28:15):
wife and I had this huge, notreally argument, but this guy
was like, So if your kid getsturned, are you gonna be the one
to put a bullet in her?
And the dude kind of hesitatebecause he was talking all this
shit, like, oh, you know, itcould be my family member, I'm
gonna put him down.
But when it came to hisdaughter, like his daughter was
like six or seven, and he'slike, So if she turns, are you
(28:38):
gonna put a bullet in her?
And then I was sitting there,like literally thinking about
it.
Like, I was like, dude, what thehell are you thinking about?
There's nothing there.
You can't raise a zombie.
What the hell?
What do you think's gonnahappen?
Y'all gonna have play dates?
You're gonna go for ice cream,she's gonna be in Tyler's NTR.
What the hell?
(28:58):
I mean, dude, like, literallysit there.
It is a real reality showbecause it's crazy.
I'm not sure how they find thesepeople or where these people
are, but the show was freakinghilarious, and these people were
really serious.
And I'm talking about they wereserious, they had like stuff
stored up in uh camps.
I mean, they had stuff upunderneath the grounds, I mean,
(29:20):
they had food for days, youknow.
Um, those um MV packs, thosearmy packs, they had this stuff
like stored up, and I was like,Oh my god, these people are
really getting because the crazything is, if this shit were to
happen, these are the peoplethat's gonna be prepared, and
people like me are gonna belike, damn, they they warned us,
they weren't, yeah, they warnedus, you know.
We didn't listen, we didn'tlisten at all.
(29:41):
So I'm gonna be one of thosepeople that's gonna be like
denier.
Meanwhile, Casper and hisgirlfriend.
SPEAKER_02 (29:49):
I mean, well, she might be off the reservation,
but Casper said, I'm out, dude.
Oh crap, hold on.
Let me hit this bait.
SPEAKER_01 (29:58):
Oh So the crazy thing is I've never seen a or
heard a letter.
Excuse me, you know, I've beenlaughing so hard that I don't
(30:20):
know what it is.
The crazy thing is, I have beengoing over this letter over and
over again and trying to askmyself if this is really real.
And I don't understand how itcan't be real because you have
people like that.
(30:41):
Now, if this is a relationship,Casper, that you choose to keep
with Casey.
The crazy thing is, I don'tunderstand how we keep finding
the names with the first letterbeing the same.
It's just weird for me.
It's not well, not really weird,but it's just oh my god, it's
different.
So oh excuse it.
See, I've been laughing so hardthat I'm hiccuping, and oh my
(31:06):
goodness.
Okay, so let me try to do thisfor you.
Here is the red flag for me.
Okay, I can get to the zombietalk or whatever, but then
again, I can't because it's notsome shit I want to hear every
damn day.
I mean, you two must be a reallygood couple, or there's
(31:28):
something about her that youtruly like.
I don't know if you think thatthis shit's gonna actually
happen, and she's one of thosedoomsday preppers that she's got
everything already figured out,and you want to kind of want to
stick with her.
That part I get, but I gotta behonest with you.
When the zombie shit hits, Iwon't even be on this podcast
anymore.
I mean, because technicallywe're gonna be without power
anyways, the world's gonna be inutter chaos.
(31:50):
People be looting, killing eachother.
It's gonna be like the purge allover again.
The real purge.
So we're gonna not only will wehave the purge going on, we're
gonna have the apocalypse andwe're gonna have zombies.
My black ass is going to headfor higher hills, and I'm going
to make a home somewhere where Ican't be found.
If my kids are with me and theyain't infected, hey, they ain't
infected, and we gotta go.
(32:11):
But nah, I'm kidding, y'all.
See, y'all gotta be talking likethis.
It's crazy.
Hold on.
Hmm.
I had to get that tea.
It's crazy.
It's crazy that I'm talking likethis because I really don't even
talk like this in the shit.
Me and my wife would go back andforth about this shit.
I mean, we would actually sitthere and think like what does
(32:32):
this happen?
Because we've seen all themovies that came out.
There was World War Z.
I know it's another that theylook at Zombieland one and two,
that was pretty good.
That was more believable than umthan the Walking Dead, and well,
World War Z was kind ofbelievable too.
Here's the thing about TheWalking Dead.
(32:54):
I love the show.
This is why you don't see a lotof black people on this show.
Because white folks, let me telly'all something.
Y'all have a wait and seeattitude, as I keep saying.
Y'all want to wait and seewhat's gonna happen.
Black folks, they will take offrunning, they will be like 10
states over, and meanwhile,you're sitting there getting
bit.
The thing that pissed me offabout the walking dead is that
there is a shitload of zombies,and these damn things can't even
(33:16):
run, they're not like thezombies in World War Z or
Zombieland 1 and 2, where theyrun after you.
They were slow walking, andthese people will get cornered
by these damn zombies, and thenit's like they get overwhelmed.
First off, you have the upperhand, you know.
Again, I can't believe I'mtalking like this, but damn it,
let's go ahead and indulge thisletter.
You have the upper hand.
If these things can't run, whyare we backing into the corner
(33:40):
just screaming?
Yeah, because screaming makeseverything better.
What are we screaming at?
Is that some kind of dialectthat they can understand?
No, they understand one thing,and they want to eat your damn
brain.
Okay, so this is why you don'tsee a lot of black folks on the
walking dead.
Maybe now you do, but listen,Jesus, do you think because I
(34:03):
wish they would make a versionof the walking dead, and they
think they uh uh they did.
Uh, it was a low budget uhversion, I think it was zombies
in Brooklyn's or whatever.
That's more believable becauseas we know, black folks don't
like to sit around and wait andsee what's gonna happen.
I mean, I kid you not.
If you guys ever seen thesezombie pranks on YouTube where
(34:25):
they play on black people, itdoes not go the way that they
think it goes.
Because black folks, they willbeat your ass first and then try
to figure out what the hell thisis later.
You know, white folks, y'allwant to sit there and try to
investigate every damn thing, aswell as y'all.
That's that's y'all.
Y'all can do that.
I'm gonna make sure when thezombie pocalypse happens.
I'm gonna have me a white personwith you because they're gonna
(34:46):
go wait and see, find out whathappens while you're waiting to
see it, and I'm running like twomiles up the road to see if you
got bit.
That way we gotta put somedistance between me and you.
So if you got bit, at least Igot a two-mile head start.
SPEAKER_02 (35:01):
Shit.
Oh my goodness.
Oh, goodness gracious.
SPEAKER_01 (35:07):
So that is me, okay?
That's me.
I mean, listen.
Oh, god, I love you whitepeople.
I do.
Because y'all make everything socomical, you know.
When you get bit, it's like, oh,instead of just looking at it
like and cutting off, oh mygoodness.
See y'all, see what y'all got medoing.
(35:28):
Instead of y'all just cutting itoff like with the first second,
y'all sit there and look at itand wait for it to spread, you
know.
Oh my god.
I tell you, The Walking Deadreally did a number on me
because I don't even watch theshow anymore, and I think it's
still a good show, but it's justsomething that like I just can't
(35:52):
believe like if this reallyhappened, this is what the world
would be, you know, becausefirst and foremost, everybody's
gonna click up anyways.
You know, there was anothermovie, what was it?
Black Summer.
First season was good, secondseason hated it.
Okay, because again, thesezombies aren't running, so
clearly you have the upper hand.
(36:14):
Now, Casper, getting back toyour letter, because I keep
getting sidetracked becausethese zombie stories and the
zombie talk.
My friend, I am trying to makesense of this, but here's what's
so weird (36:26):
the fact that you named your cat Mr.
T is freaking awesome.
I mean, my cat, her name isBella, and she's kind of an ass.
She has a personality, shedoesn't like to be pet.
She only likes she'll make youwork for her affection.
But Mr.
T sounds like a pretty awesomecat.
When you came in the kitchen,you was ready to light her ass
up just on principle alonebecause she was eating uh red
meat, which you thought was acat, which I'm a cat, because if
(36:50):
it was, I would expect thisletter to be coming like from
some kind of either mentalinstitution or some kind of
prison.
But I don't even see how that'seven possible.
I mean, I do know people eat rawmeat, but hamburger?
Because she wanted to see whatbrain.
How do you actually know whatbrain tastes like?
(37:11):
I would be more scared to be inthe bed with her at night while
you're sleeping, okay?
Or be scared around her at allin the house.
Y'all don't have any kids.
I already know you don't,because you damn sure didn't say
anything about Larry havingkids.
So you're 26, she's gotta besomewhere around the same age as
you.
So I'm just curious, and yousaid you asked what the hell are
(37:33):
you doing, Casey?
She replied.
She said, I if I turn, I want tosee how brain tastes like.
First off, hamburger does notresemble brain.
Okay, this ain't Silence of theLambs, okay?
That something totallydifferent.
I don't even see how the hell Iwould be more concerned.
I want to know what she does fora living because if she works in
a mortuary, that is a huge redflag.
(37:53):
Huge red flag.
And if she works in a mortuary,I got one word for you.
Run.
Run, run, run like hell, andrun.
You know, I would even go so faras to change my name and social
security number.
You know, I'd probably moveabout maybe.
I'm not even sure where the helly'all stay at, but wherever
she's at, I wouldn't be.
(38:15):
I would be probably in 10 statesover.
My black ass would probablyconvert to being a monk.
That's how serious it would getfrom me.
This girl would probably dodamage to me, real talk.
She do some real damage to me.
Because if I had a female likethat, yeah, I caught her in the
kitchen.
I gotta be honest with you, man.
I probably would let her let herlet her ass up anyways because
she's in there eating raw meat,and I would have thought she was
(38:37):
a burglar.
So, I mean, at least I have agood well, you know, I thought
she was a burglar, so you know Idid light her up, you know.
I mean, but then again, I gotcameras in my kitchen, so you
know, they probably would havesaw right through that.
In any event, that's what Iwould have done.
I mean, my god, I don't know.
I I I don't even I can't say ifI hope if y'all are or not still
(38:58):
together.
I hope this is a phase for herbecause you know we all go
through phases when we go whenwe grow up, uh, or when we're
trying to figure ourselvesbecause you sound like you're in
your well, you're in your late20s, later 20s, well, somewhere
in between.
So she's gotta be coming intoher own.
So it's weird.
And you said you talked to herabout it, and I don't know if
(39:19):
what she's saying is serious.
Sounds like she's serious to me.
It sounds like she is not givingthis any second of thought as to
when she's turned, how the hellshe's gonna find you.
I don't even know how that'seven possible.
Last time I checked, they don'thave bloodhound zombies.
Then again, there was that movieAnimal Zombies.
I didn't watch that, butwhatever.
I mean, this chick sounds likeshe's really, really like a
(39:41):
fatal attraction type of chick.
So I don't know how you guys metor how y'all even got on this
subject.
Me personally, my black asswould be gone.
I would have to tell her.
I mean, god, I'm sitting theretrying to the sad thing is I'm
trying to figure out how y'allas y'all how y'all day-to-day
life, how y'all navigate.
Like, what do y'all do iny'all's day-to-day life?
I mean, she's got to be.
(40:05):
I wanna well, she's gotta bedressed.
Well, no, I don't think she'sgotta be dressed up in black.
I think she's just too enrichedto.
I mean, I can imagine because mywife had the walking dead
t-shirt.
I think she had the walkingdead, um, the walking dead
blanket.
I even bought her Negan's bat,the replica bat, not the real
thing, because you know sheain't gonna hit me up here no
damn real bat, even though wegot real bats, and she did
(40:27):
decide to turn one of the batsinto Lucille.
Uh, that was a Halloween prank,and yeah, yeah.
But it's crazy that I read thisletter and I just could not stop
thinking about everything thatyou were talking about.
And I'm sitting here, and thecrazy thing I was picturing
about how you came into thiskitchen and she's in the kitchen
(40:49):
with the refrigerator over,sitting on the floor, and
there's blood, and you thoughtit was Mr.
T, which crazy.
Again, I would have let her assup on principle alone.
I'm sorry.
Maybe hit her in the shoulder,not in the head, you know,
because if you hit her in thehead, you wanna, you know, she
might not come back from that.
But then again, she is talkinglike she's a real zombie, so and
(41:10):
again, she probably would havecame back from that.
So I you know what?
I don't know.
I don't know.
You gotta be talking crazy up inhere, okay?
It's crazy.
You know, I love my listeners, Iappreciate you guys, but y'all
gotta be doing some crazy shit.
But I love it.
I love it.
I'm gonna keep doing it becausey'all send me this shit and I'm
gonna indulge every minute ofit.
So, my take on this, huh?
(41:31):
My take on this, Mr.
Casper, dude, do what you gottado.
I mean, me personally, I donedipped a long time ago.
And me coming to the kitchen isjust icing the cake, finding her
eating red meat, that's justicing the cake.
I'm trying to figure out how yousleep at night.
I don't know if y'all have atwo-bedroom apartment or
one-bedroom apartment.
I don't know if you sleeping,excuse me, in the bathroom with
(41:54):
the door locked, or if yousleeping somewhere else.
Because I gotta say, thiscouldn't be me.
I'd have been like, yeah, uh,I'd been working some pretty
late night shifts, if you knowwhat I mean.
Some pretty late night shifts.
So I'd have been like, yeah, butit sounds like this girl, either
(42:15):
you're about to be her firstvictim.
I mean, man, thank god shedidn't say vampires.
That probably would have been, Idon't know, what's worse.
Well, vampire you can come backfrom, but though they're not
even real.
You know what?
I'm up here thinking about thisshit like it's really happening.
Because you know, you actuallyhave some people who think they
are vampires.
Oh my goodness, but thank godthat's not even real.
But I don't know.
(42:36):
I think vampires might be alittle bit better than a zombie.
At least a zombie they don't eatprains, vampires just suck your
blood and you just turn, huh?
Interesting.
Why the hell am I thinking aboutthis shit?
This is crazy, y'all.
It's crazy.
I mean, listen, I'm gonna postthis.
When you guys hear this, I wanty'all's comments.
I want somebody to email me andtell me what y'all would do in
(42:59):
this situation.
I mean, I know we have peoplethat believe in their own, like
their shit don't stink.
I get that part, but how do youguys feel about this whole
zombie thing?
I mean, I know some of y'allgonna say, well, it's stupid,
it's not real, and it's not.
I just want y'all to indulge me,you know, humor me, you know,
(43:19):
because this is what we do, andit's fun, it's fun to talk
about, you know.
When people see stuff in themovies, we often think about if
this could really happen.
I mean, we see a lot of shit inthe movies that we think are
like so close to the truth, andthat and then we know just one
day it's gonna happen.
Do I think zombie apocalypsewill happen?
I don't know.
I honestly don't know.
(43:40):
Because again, if it doeshappen, America will not tell
us.
America will just probably justand the crazy thing is they will
probably release a zombie into ablack neighborhood before they
would a white neighborhood.
Races that might say, yes,because they're trying to wipe
us out.
No, I'm just joking.
I'm kidding, y'all.
Okay, listen, if you put azombie in a black neighborhood,
(44:03):
it's not gonna go the way youthink it's gonna go, okay?
They're gonna whoop his ass onprinciple alone, okay?
He's gonna get dealt with.
Now, white neighborhood, that'sdifferent because you got one
zombie and you got a wholefamily.
So this whole family is huddledinto a corner while this one
zombie is trying to get at thefamily.
And when the one zombie gets atthe one family member, everybody
else is standing around watchingand screaming and hollering.
(44:24):
Black folks, Mexicans, hell,maybe even Chinese, because I've
seen that movie.
What was that?
Train of Bosnia, that was a goodmovie.
I mean, they fight, they fight.
I'm sorry, white folks.
Y'all just like to get bit andscream and then whine and cry
and don't want to do anything,you know.
But you know, unless y'all gethooked up with some uh some real
backwoods people out in thecountry, then you know, y'all
(44:45):
might have a fighting chance.
But black folks, Mexicans, hell,even the Asians already have a
chance because they fight.
I mean, we've been fighting allour lives, so this ain't nothing
new.
Zombie, what?
What you want to do this?
Okay, yeah, all right.
You know, because there ain't notalking, you know.
There's a lot of swinging,probably machine guns or guns or
whatever, and that's just gonnahappen.
And we're just gonna go aboutour normal day.
(45:05):
It's gonna be a party at the endof the week, you know, because
we done racked up and cleanedup, you know.
Meanwhile, my wife folks, y'allstill in the corner screaming,
you know, because little Timmygot bit or little Sarah got
Aiden, and you're trying tofigure out what you did wrong as
a parent, which has nothing todo with being bit.
Nothing.
I mean, y'all want to ask why.
Here's here's the why.
(45:26):
You stood there, you watched,you could have took.
I mean, y'all got an arsenalfull of guns.
We didn't think to pull one ofthem out the case, cock that bad
boy up and open open season.
Oh my gosh, this shit is crazy,y'all.
Why are y'all doing this to me?
Oh my goodness.
(45:48):
So, okay.
SPEAKER_00 (45:56):
Oh my gosh.
SPEAKER_01 (45:59):
Oh my gosh, oh my gosh.
Okay, so Casper.
I hope you got an answer thatyou do.
I'm sorry, this letter was justtoo good to pass through it.
It was a good letter, it wascomical.
I'm just trying to figure outwhat I could give you advice.
If you have already left thisgirl, good for you.
(46:19):
Me personally, I would have beensleeping with two eyes open.
I couldn't deal with no shitlike this.
I honestly can't, and I don'teven like drama because the
minute a girl told me that shebelieves in zombies, that's
fine.
You can believe in zombies, butyou don't have to start living
the life as if it's actuallyhappening.
Now, if you want to live thatlife and actually this happened,
you can do that shit byyourself, or better yet, go find
(46:41):
some other people that do that.
I mean, listen, we all like tobelieve in sci-fi and fantasy,
and that's fine.
It's it's it's fun to do, butwhen the shit starts getting
real and it started affectingyour life and affecting the way
we do business or how ourrelationship is, I can't deal.
I gotta be honest with you.
I'm gonna I'm gonna dip, I'mgonna bounce.
(47:01):
And as much as I don't want tolook back, I'll probably let it
be like, damn, this girl'scrazy.
I mean, listen, I will come findyou if the zombie outbreak
happens, so that way you couldbe like, I told you so, and then
I know that at least I'm withyou, I got a chance of survival
raid.
SPEAKER_00 (47:18):
Because I could be like, Oh, you know, she did tell
me, yeah, yeah, she told me.
SPEAKER_01 (47:22):
Damn it, damn it.
You know, and then I willworship the ground that you walk
on.
But until then, I am just goingto be like, No, hard no.
I wish that you can send me apicture of you too.
I wonder what she went for withHalloween.
I could pretty much already telland I already know.
You know, I wonder what theday-to-day life, I mean, does
(47:44):
she really eat does she even eatmeat?
Probably not, she's probablyvegetarian.
That probably sounds plausible.
I mean, just because you tastean hamburger, that has no effect
on a human brain.
I really want to know where thisyoung lady works.
But, dude, listen.
Uh, hold on, let me get some ofmy red diamond tea.
(48:05):
I know I love my red diamond.
The crazy thing is, I wasthinking about putting some
scary music behind this, but Iwas like, nah, I ain't got time
for all that because I mightfreak myself out.
And then in the process, my kidsmight knock on the doors and
might scare the shit out of me,and then again, yeah, I know
what y'all gonna hear in theprocess.
SPEAKER_00 (48:28):
So while I appreciate this letter, oh my
goodness, this was a good one.
SPEAKER_01 (48:35):
Keep them coming, folks.
Keep them coming because there'sno right, there's no wrong.
You know, I get a nice littlesize portion of letters a week,
and I try to go through as muchas I can, but you guys know I do
have to work.
I am a single father, and I gotthree kids still take care of
that are still in school.
They're in high school.
(48:56):
Well, two of them are justmaking it to high school, and of
course, my boys are older, butI'm still a parent, so I'm
trying to get to everybody'sletters, you know, do my notes,
do my research, and then kind ofput you guys up on it.
So I appreciate that you guysare just you know giving me an
opportunity to hear my voice,and I appreciate that you guys
(49:18):
the love that you guys show meon my podcast.
Now, as we know, uh Instagramlaunched a new platform, which I
guess is gonna probably putTwitter out of business, which
I'm certainly it will, and it'scalled Threads.
I am still getting the hang ofit.
I was not a big Twitter fan, I'mstill not a big Twitter fan,
(49:38):
Twitter fan, and I'm not areally big threads fan, but it's
pretty cool.
Um, but my Instagram pages arestill up, um, all three of them.
You know, I got Endeavor Empire,the Facebook page, I don't
really have a lot of hits on.
I get more hits off Instagramthan I do Facebook.
I wonder why, but then again, Idon't, I'm being sarcastic.
(50:00):
But the Facebook page, it'llremain up, but most of the
posting and stuff will gotowards Instagram.
Um, so my links are always um inthe podcast description.
You guys can feel free tocomment, like, send me a
message, and my email as well.
Again, I appreciate um the fansthat listen to me from all over,
(50:24):
not just here in America, but inthe Philippines, Asia.
Uh, there's even some in Africa.
Oh my gosh.
Shout out to you guys.
But feel free to email meletters.
Um, I love to read letters, Ilove to hear your fan mail.
Um, I do have some shows comingup that's probably not gonna be
(50:45):
good for.
Well, I'm not gonna say they'renot gonna be good, they're just
you know, some people that don'treally think too highly of my
podcast, which is fine becauseeverybody's entitled to their
own opinion.
But I want to read, I just don'twant to read the letters that I
get that are good.
I want to read all the lettersthat are kind of in between, or
letters that that people thinkyou know that are not so good,
(51:06):
because I want to give everybodya fair share.
So I'm not made that way, youknow.
I'm not I don't do this for themoney or the cash.
I do this because it's fun, andme and my wife started this
thing.
So as we get ready to close thisout, this show out.
Oh my gosh, freaking awesome,freaking yes, yes, yes, yes.
(51:31):
So, I want to say to Casper,dude, if you wanna get back with
me, kind of give me a follow-up.
You know, that's what I likedoing with people.
When you guys send me lettersand I do your letters, uh, do
your podcast.
If you can guys can give me likea follow-up, because we don't
(51:52):
have to do the whole episode offollow-up.
I mean, there's gonna be onepodcast where we're just gonna
do follow-up letters fromprevious episodes because I know
just some of the listeners, youknow, they're like me, they
wonder, and they wonder, well,what happened here or what
happened there?
I did receive a follow-up um toone of the shows, but I'm not
gonna tell you who.
You just have to stay tuned forthe episode, and then I will let
(52:14):
you know who that is becauseit's gonna be interesting.
It's good, not bad.
Well, maybe in between, but Ilike to do follow-ups, and it
doesn't have to be a longparagraph, it can just be
something short and sweet, youknow.
That way I can give my listenersand myself, not really closure,
but just to say, hey, here's anupdate on so-and-so, this is how
(52:35):
they're doing, this is what theydid.
So, Casper, I am clearly,clearly interested to see how
you and Casey kind of fathomthis relationship out.
You know, I don't again, thename, Casper and Casey.
I think that's free.
That's that's freaking sweet.
So I want to I want to followup, man.
I want to follow up.
(52:55):
I want you to tell me, give me alittle bit more background how
this is how this is going, howthis is doing, if you decide to
change the things, or if youdecided to just ride this out.
I mean, I don't know what kindof young lady she is, because
you only gave me bits and piecesabout the zombie thing, but she
sounds like a pretty okay girl,aside from the zombie part.
But you know, that's that'sthat's that's just you.
(53:16):
You know, I don't I don't know.
It's freaking sweet, man.
I freaking love it.
Oh my gosh.
