Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, well, well, good morning everybody.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Welcome to my live stream. It's October first, twenty twenty five,
and that's the sun coming up behind me here in
New York City, and we officially don't have a government
in America. The government shut down overnight, and now the
finger pointing begins. It's your fault, No, it's your fault.

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Guess what. Guess what? I don't know whose fault it is?
What I don't know whose fault it is.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
I know that to find out whose fault it is,
you got to read the actual bill in question. And
one version of the bill is ninety nine pages, and
the more detailed version of the bill is fifteen hundred pages.
And guess what. I don't feel like doing my fucking
homework on that. Those assholes will figure it out on

(00:59):
their own. God damn time with that. I say hi
to round the waiter, Hi, Ron, how are you?

Speaker 1 (01:04):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Ronnie?

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Ron? How am I? We're in a government shutdown, man,
It's chaos.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
It is chaos, and it has a lot to do
with dropping our healthcare costs in America.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Oh my god, I thought, yeah, look how bad I look.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
You say that? And then they're like, no, No, it's
about giving health chair illegal immigrants. I don't know nice hair, Ron.

Speaker 1 (01:28):
I appreciate you.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
What's going.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
I'm gonna tell you what happened. I didn't shower.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
I didn't shower after the beach, but I put a
comb in it.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
It looks good.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
You've got soy sauce in your hair? Are you soy
saucing your hair these days?

Speaker 3 (01:42):
You got a haircut like you go to the oscars?

Speaker 4 (01:45):
Like Jesus, you got styled yo, all right, you went
to a han salon.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
You didn't do that on your own.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
I just showered. That's all bullshit.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
No, I can look pretty. I've never seen your hair
hold on. So your hair is going from right to left.
Got it honed over? Dude? You got a haircut? You
went to a salon?

Speaker 2 (02:03):
No, no, man, I did not.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
I just decided to shower.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
I could look I could look pretty anytime I want.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
That's why I usually doa.

Speaker 4 (02:13):
You got like a nine to five like sort of
like a finance banker.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Hit.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Thank you, Ron, But the government shut down. It's not
about my stupid hair. Everyone is panicking. This is not
good for America, and I don't know who to blame.
And I guess I'm supposed to come on this thing
and blame somebody. I don't know who to blame. And
the Democrats don't have a plan. So they got to
sit there. They got to sulk for the next a

(02:38):
few days, and then they're gonna have to pass this
thing because they have no choice. They have no power
down there in Washington.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
This is playing directly into Project twenty five and.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
That day, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
He's in charge.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
Of the Finance Department. He's like Trump put him in
charge of the Finance Department. It's like a very powerful department.
He went on television yesterday telling the public don't be afraid.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
He goes.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Trump said, this is an opportunity to finish what Doge did,
to finish what Doage started. He said, we are going
to restructure the government so it's gonna be unrecognizable.

Speaker 3 (03:23):
He said that, and he said, we're actually going to
get rid.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
Of all those programs and all those agencies.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
The Democrats like.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
They're gonna cut the fat. They're gonna cut a lot
of fat. They're gonna they're gonna fire a lot of people.
Until the Democrats sulked back and uh and UH passed
this bill because the Democrats have no they don't have
any choice.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
So you think the Democrats are going to cave.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
They have to.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Unfortunately they have that because they're gonna lose too much
shit in the process. So they understand they don't like
this bill whatsoever, and they want to dig in. But
the problem is as they dig in, Trump is gonna
wipe out all sorts of other stuff they believe in.
They have no choice here, Ron, Nanna, and here's me

(04:10):
make you believe I don't know about politics. But the
other thing is I didn't feel like reading the goddamn thing.
One version is ninety nine pages, the other version is
fifteen hundred pages. So unless you read the whole damn thing,
you have no voice in this. I have no voice
in this. This is my stupid opinion.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
All I know is in the last government shutdown, Chuck
Schumack shaved it and he got fucking lambastard, Chucky Chucky
Schuma Chucky.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
All right, listen, Ron, we got a lot to do,
and we certainly could go back to that. But I
before I forget, I got to tell the people what
happened yesterday. So after the live stream, I get the
kids to school, and then I walked Doggy and I
was walking Doggie and I decided to give you a
little phone call, you know that we were just chatting
about this and not nothing, nothing too heavy, you know.

(05:02):
And uh so you got the stupid you know what happened.
But I gotta tell the people, and you could, you
could share, obviously, but you got this stupid parrot thing
in my goddamn head, the stupid parrot thing because in Historia,
I looked it up and you were right.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
There's parents living all over the damn place.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
The parrots got loose and now they're mating and there's
what hundreds of them.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
Now they think it's like into like like six seven hundred.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yes, like they're just fucking breeding like rabbits.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
So I'm walking Dogee, I'm talking to Ron the waiter.
It's a nice little morning, you know, last day of September, yesterday,
And all of a sudden, my dog is doing his
business under a tree. He'es taking a few leaks, and
I start hearing this noise that could only be what
I believe, a parrot in the tree trying to speak English.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
It's like, yeah, like I swear to God, that's exactly
what it sounded like.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
So I go to Ron, I go hold ont of
man Ron, and I'm looking up in the tree to
see where this fucking parrot is. I'm completely convinced it's
a parrot and it's continuing. And then at that moment
I realized when I look down and see.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
If Doggie was done.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Right next to the tree was a car with the
window down, and it was a woman talking on the phone.
This is this is Trump's America, this woman saying.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
The woman so you're saying, the woman had a like
a high pitched, whiny.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
High pitched parrot sounding voice. If if, if my life
depended on it, Ron, I couldn't tell you what language
she was speaking. She was speaking parrot.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
So I know where you live. You live on the
Upper West Side.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
There was a woman with a high pitched voice.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
I'm gonna get I'm going.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
To assume she's of the uh, she's of the Jewish persuasion.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Well we like to call them.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
She wasn't.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
She wasn't a How do you know that her color
she was more uh, she was more icy.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
See I don't know, Oh, she was.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
More icy, Like I say so, uh, So then that happened,
and I.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Was like, oh god, Ron, you and your stupid parrots.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
There of all nothing to rupt you.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
But like, I think the best part of the story
is of like you started yelling and screaming at a
death person.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Well, why did you give away the punchline? You can
I know, my stupid story. I don't have many new stories, Ron,
I always have to hold out the dumb old stories.
I got a brand new one, and you just gave
away the punchline.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
No, it's good, it's good. It's a good show.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
My god. So then the oh, Ron, Now, let me
see if I can make something of that.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Now you can do it.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Let me use all my steels. I got steals.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
I'm on the phone and I literally here help but
go Hey, hey you can hear me.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Hey, yeah, you're gonna leave it.

Speaker 4 (08:05):
There, yes, sterically you're not gonna pick it up.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Hey, I know you can hear me.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Don't walk away from me, Yeah yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah, it turns out, old guy.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Let me let me add a little to this Ron.
First of all, nowadays I'm more como than not. Rest
in peace, PATRISI O'Neil. He brought the word como to
my vocabulary when he was talking about Brazilian hookers. But anyway,
I'm more commo these days, but but I still could
act up like anybody else out there. I used to

(08:34):
act up all the fucking time, but not.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Not as much.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
So I'm walking dog after the parent incident, and uh, now,
you know, when you're on the sidewalk in New York,
the dogs all over the place, and some of these
dogs want to eat your dog's face, They want to
eat your fucking legs. Some are friendly, and your dog
will sniff their genitals and their assholes and and you
and you have to have small talk with the owner
and make believe this is normal, that our dogs are

(09:00):
basically blesting each other. And then you go, oh, have
a nice.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Day, and everyone on the Upper West Side has a
fucking dog bell.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Yeah, you know.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
I think the world would be a better place if
we were allowed both parties, though would have to agree
to this, But if the social dorms were such where
you could just smell and lick the genitals of your
fellow human beings, I think life would be a lot
a lot easier, a lot easier. We wouldn't be so uptight,

(09:28):
we wouldn't be wound tight, I think the dogs have
it right. So now my dog's behind two dogs are
now going to slow down my dog's walk, and he
takes another piece.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
No, he actually finally took a pooh, which I scraped
up with my dog bag.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
And as I'm getting ready to continue walking because now
I want to just go home because he did his business,
there's a gentleman in front of me with two dogs
and he's on a phone. He was on a phone.
Run he was on a phone, This is how I
remember it. And he's like, you know, dragging the dogs,

(10:05):
you know, behind him, and one of the dogs stops
and just shits on the sidewalk. And what drives us
nuts in New York City are these entitled assholes that
will let their dogs pooh on the sidewalk and they
will not clean it up. It's scary now people that
are too busy, you know, checking their fucking tiktoks as

(10:27):
they're walking around New York. They're stepping in it and
now they're spreading it everywhere. It's a it's a it's
a epidemic. When you say.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
I saw a.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
Guy it just it just rained, It had just finished raining. Yeah,
and obviously it must have been a big dog.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
And the guy that he was probably ten feet in front.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
Of me with his girlfriend. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
And this is in the West Village. And when I
say big, it looked like a fucking cow patty.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
It was a cow patty. It's there was mass I
was like this, this must have been a.

Speaker 4 (11:01):
Saint fucking banad, right, And it's just in his raining
and he's got loafers on, you know those loafers where
you put a penny in the middle, penny loafer with
no socks, just no socks, and he's holding hands with
his girlfriend and he's looking at his girlfriend and they
live on that street and he doesn't see it, and

(11:22):
you can honestly hear like the what like like what say?

Speaker 3 (11:26):
He goes right in the middle of it and it
comes over his penny loafer. Yeah, and he goes, oh.

Speaker 4 (11:33):
My god, oh my god. And literally she goes and
they live right there, and she goes, you're not coming
in the house with that.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
He goes, Jeff bought him.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
And she goes, you're throwing those away. She goes, no,
I just me. He goes, you're not bringing those in
And he fucking just left them on the sidewalk.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
Let the sound of it was that, and it came
over and then it went inside and he.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
Was like, oh my god.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
And she's like, oh my god. She goes, I don't
even watch you in my house. He goes, you have
to get take a shower. Yeah, that's what happened when
you don't pick up your dog shit.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah. I uh well, first of all, Jerry sheppardin he
goes back to poop talk. Yeah, this is we're talking
basically about the government shut down. This is poop talk.
It's the same fucking thing. So why why am I
going to waste time talking about the government shut down?
And who's to blame? Certainly we'll get back to it.
But yeah, so it's a it's an epidemic in New
York City. These fucking people, they're entitled. They got dogs,

(12:32):
and they don't give a shit where the dog poops,
and they will and they will leave it. And there's
nothing more gross than picking up, first of all, cold
dog poop. Because every once in a while, I don't
have a bag, and I'll circle back the next day
and pick up pooh from my dog. If he goes
too many times, I don't have enough bags.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
And if it's if.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
His poo is out of the way, I'll leave it,
but I will go back and get it. And picking
up cold dog poo is so ef disgusting. And the
other thing that's worse than that is every once in
a while you do end up picking up, for the
good of the goddamn neighborhood, someone else's poo, and that
that will make the hair on the back of my

(13:16):
neck stand up.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Picking up someone else's dog.

Speaker 4 (13:19):
Poo, I just don't, you know, Like when you see
dog shit and it's all runny, you just know, like
you're feeding your dog table scraps.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
Yeah, you're feeding your dog table scraps.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Yeah. Yeah. And Jerry Shepherdini, it's Jerry. Wait, what do
you do it to me?

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Jerry? You leave it for a day in the city
and then go back. Yeah, did you understand what I said?
It's out of the way, It's it's not gonna like
no one's gonna fucking step out of it or anything.
But I feel like, you know, it's my job to
go back and get it. It's usually under a tree.
If you want to know the truth, you know, sidewalk,
then I try to find someone with a stupid doggie

(13:56):
bag and it's like bumming a cigarette, bumming a doggy
bag in New York. Let's just talk about this for
twenty minutes and drive people nuts.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Fucking yeah, we'll have no views.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Yeah, but but asking somebody for a doggy bag is
like bumming a fucking cigarette. It's the same thing. People
look at you like, ah, fuck yeah, sure here, and
they get mad and then and then they want to mumble,
like like with the cigarette, they go get your own pack.
They're like, I'm your own bags.

Speaker 4 (14:24):
I don't know why this is an issue, because I've
seen people who walk dogs and they have like it's
like a it's like a milk bone shaped. They got
the plastic bag and like and it's attaching and it's.

Speaker 3 (14:39):
Just a ton of plastic bags.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
You can why don't you attach that to your all
that stuff?

Speaker 2 (14:45):
But you do run out or you miscalculate. You know,
my dog is good for one poo a morning, but
every once in a while he'll he'll go nuts and
he'll do three.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
So hold on, let me ask you something.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
So you're miscalculating essentially the toilet paper with your dog, yeah,
are you also miscalculating the toilet paper with humans?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
No, oh no, and this is this is not even
worth talking about. It's it's every once in a while,
Every once in a while you find yourself out there
with without a without a bag to pick up the poop.
All right, anyway, So, uh the guy I swear he
was on a phone, which is key to the story.
He's dragging two dogs behind him. I'm behind the two

(15:23):
dogs of my dog. I'm kind of waiting for him
to move along, because you don't know if these dogs
are gonna fucking attack each other. And the one dog
stops and just lays it out on the sidewalk, and
the guy continues to walk. I see a guy that
works for one of these buildings. He looks at me, like, uh,
here we go again. He sees this every fucking day,

(15:43):
and he's probably one of these guys that has to
pick up.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Your dog poop o the doorman or something. And he's
had it.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
And he looks at me, and I'm like, ah, hell no,
not today.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
What I heard. I so you sounded like a black woman.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
Oh hell no, Well that's what I was going for.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
So I'm gonna be completely honest with everybody. Right before
you have a confrontation with someone you you you decide
in a split moment if you could take that person
right right, I mean, if it was some some giant
of a human being, I'm not going a he not.
I would basically say, I guess he has a good

(16:21):
reason for leaving that dog pool on the sidewalk, and
I would get the fuck out of the area. But
you know, not many people admit this, But when you
have a confrontation, you size up the person and you go,
you know what, I could take this person. So I'm
gonna now have a confrontation. And that's exactly what I decided.
So I start yelling at the guy, hey, hey, like
you said, hey, hey, your dog pood hey, And the

(16:43):
guy keeps walking and walking. I'm like, is this fucking
guy not only left his dog pool on the sidewalk?
Is he gonna ignore me? Huh?

Speaker 3 (16:54):
He's ghosting you.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
I get closerrh because now I'm red hot and I'm
looking at the work.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
He's pissed.

Speaker 2 (17:01):
He's got his stupid broom and garbage pail, so he's
thinking I'm gonna have to fucking clean this up. I'm like, no, no,
I got this, sir. So I walk closer to the guy, Hey, hey,
your dog poot. Your dog pood, And then he's still
ignoring me.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
He's walking. I'm like, oh, this entitled New Yorker, this
son of a bitch.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
You know the deal, Ron, you deal with this every day,
these entitled New Yorkers. So now I'm like, well, now
I gotta go eye to eye with the guy because
the shouting is not working. So I get in front
of him and I'm screaming.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
Sir, your dog pood on the sidewalk, go pick it up.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
At that point, he gave me the.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
He's deaf.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
I'm like, oh, by god, and he's given me the
sign I know, the international sign of I don't know
what you're saying. And I'm like great, So now I
gotta explain to the guy that his dog poot. So
I go like this, I don't know sign language. I
started with this Ron. I go like this, and he's.

Speaker 4 (18:08):
Like, oh my god, he thinks you want to blow him.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
And he's like he's giving me me this stuff and.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
I'm like yeah, like no, no, no, sir. No means no.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
And I go back to him like this, like I
don't know what you're saying. So then I'm like I
got it.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
I got to put my mic down for this.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
I go, I know, I know one sign.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
It's my favorite.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
So I go like this, give me a second, and
then I did this, hold on, I gotta put my
mic down.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
And that's the sign of bullshit.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Is it is? It's the only it's the only it's
the only sign I know I think is I think
I can do.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
I love you too. But that's the sign of bullshit
when you go like this and.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
He gives me a look because now I guess I'm
fucking at him.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
And then he's looking and he's getting angry. The deaf
guy's getting but I just trying to tell him that
a stupid dog poot and he's got to go clean
it up. I was able to go follow me, follow me,
and he's like and he walks, and now I just
get way down on the ground and literally almost touches

(19:24):
dog pool like that. And then he's like, oh, at
that point, it was nice to be honest with you.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
You know.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
I guess he didn't know his dog pood and he
got his bag out and he did the right thing.
And then the worker, the worker gave me the biggest
smile and said that you that you.

Speaker 4 (19:47):
It's like the ending of a of a sitcom or something.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
I don't know, you know.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
John Kurtz goes to, what were you getting? Uh deaf grunts?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, I kind of was. I kind of was. I
kind of was.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Anyway, That's what happened after the show yesterday when I
was talking Ron on the phone. He had to hear
the other side of that. And you heard me screaming, right.

Speaker 3 (20:08):
I heard you screaming at a death guy. Yes, I heard, Guy.
I got It's a good I don't know. I guess
you really are a shock jock.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
I'm a little shock jockey.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Yes, yes, So anyway, Ron, Yeah, the government has shut down.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
Uh you know what suck?

Speaker 4 (20:26):
You come to New York City on vacation today, you
plan on going to the Statue of Liberty and it's closed?

Speaker 2 (20:32):
Because oh is that true? So that can I take? All?

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Right?

Speaker 2 (20:38):
Let me ask you something then, that Liberty closed?

Speaker 1 (20:42):
Can I take? Like I got friends with boats?

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Can I take a boat to the Statue of Liberty
and they can't stop me because they're not working?

Speaker 3 (20:51):
Go ahead, try and see what happens.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
I'm just asking. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (20:55):
So all the all.

Speaker 4 (20:57):
The national dude, all these people, well, can you imagine
all these people like, Hey, we're gonna travel across America
going to the national parks, or hey we're going to
U seventy today, all the fucking national parks are closed.
It's that your liberty is closed. The FDA is closed.
There's only six h by the way, everything's closed.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
I'm gonna say when we're time, if someone can give
me the name. It's not Stephen Miller, who's a very
dangerous man. It's the other guy with the glasses, who's
kind of bald, who is the He's the one who
created project twenty twenty five. And then Trump put him
in charge of like the Finance Department.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Which is yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
He said, where this is a beautiful thing.

Speaker 4 (21:45):
This is a great thing because we can now finish
the job.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Is his name Russell Vaughan or something like that.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
Yes, okay, yes, I think so, Russell, Yes.

Speaker 4 (21:57):
Yeah, all right, all right, anyway, he's the he's the
creator of twenty twenty five.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah, I get it. Ron, So what's your point.

Speaker 4 (22:08):
The point is the shutdown. There's gonna be nothing left.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
I get it. It's gonna get ugly, is what I think.
What your point is, because now now they got Trump
is hinting he's got free reign to just knock out
all sorts of programs and stuff. And that's why I
think the Democrats have a no win situation here. And
within a couple of days, I would say by Friday,
they're gonna fucking vote for this thing because they don't

(22:33):
have a choice because they're gonna lose so much more
than the one thing or the few things they're trying
to protect, because they're gonna lose those things plus other stuff.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
Well, this is what Trump said.

Speaker 4 (22:44):
Well, if the Democrats want to have a shutdown, Trump said,
I'm gonna take everything away they like.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
That's what I said. Ronnie Jah Quartz is saying, I
wish I was deaf now that ron is explaining the
government shutdown.

Speaker 3 (23:00):
A man explaining a man'splaining.

Speaker 4 (23:03):
Oh so, by the way, there's only six agencies that
remain open. Oh that's what I was saying, is really
everything really is shut down. Out of out of like
thousands of agencies, I think only like six or seven
remain open, Like the Social Security Agency remains open. Uh
so you can get your uh medic, you can get

(23:23):
your checks. Unemployment checks remain open, the Weather Service remains open,
Homeland Security remains open, but pretty much everything else is
shut down everything.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
And this is the first time and I think seven years,
So we'll see how I mean, we'll see how.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
It plays out.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
It's it's it's damn depressing. If you want to.

Speaker 4 (23:43):
Hold on, let's let's let's let's get it on record.
When does the shutdown end Friday? We're now we're nowday
ten hours into it Friday, so you're saying in two
days the debts give in.

Speaker 2 (24:01):
Hakeem Jefferies was on TV last night and uh and
they basically asked them, what's your plan now that the
government's shutting down in a couple of hours, And he's like, hey, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (24:14):
The problem the problem with the Democrats is if they
wait too long there there's gonna be nothing left when
they did all that.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
I've been trying to move on for five minutes because
we said everything we need to say, because we don't
know what we're fucking talking about.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
But well, what we were talking about is it just
sucks that like all these people who.

Speaker 4 (24:36):
Made all these plans, the national parks of the Stetu
of liberty.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
Yeah, it's it's it's terrible. They could go to Times Square.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
Oh, but who's the other thing there are? This was
the number that was there.

Speaker 4 (24:49):
Was five hundred there's there's five hundred thousand federal employees
right now. You are furloughed. Do you know what furload means?

Speaker 2 (25:00):
It means they're on the side.

Speaker 4 (25:02):
No, it means it means you're working without getting paid.

Speaker 2 (25:06):
On the side.

Speaker 4 (25:08):
You're right, furloughed, Major, You're you're you're still working and
not getting paid.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
And then you're supposed to.

Speaker 4 (25:15):
You'll get retro prey when the government reopens, right, they'll
get their back pay. But we're talking half a million
federal workers. You can't let air traffic controllers to go
to still work.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yeah you got you know, you know?

Speaker 4 (25:33):
Uh so and the mill by the way, the military
military is not getting paid.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Ron, we're still talking about it.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
What do you want to what do you want to
talk about? Opie?

Speaker 2 (25:46):
I'm okay with your right. It just sucks. The whole
thing just sucks.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
I'll tell you this exhaust It's exhausting, is what it is.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Yeah, yeah, it's got it's got me uptight. It's got
you uptight. It's got people up tight out there. We
can't figure out our own shit in America. We got
two parties that don't want to work together. The Republicans
are really going all in. That's bothering the people on
the left. I'll tell you one thing. This is what
I'm gonna say today. Trump absolutely wants to be I

(26:16):
think every president wants this.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
In the end, Trump wants to.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Be considered the greatest president of all time, right, yeah,
his ego. If he falls short of that, it's going
to crush him because his ego is so strong. I believe,
and it's just my two cents, so don't get mad.
I believe when it's all said and done, the greatest
president of all time in America will be the guy

(26:42):
that figures out how he fucking is the president for everybody.
It's a very complicated country.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
You know.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
We think very differently in New York than they do
in the other parts of this fucking country. It's extremely different.
And if you're a president like Trump is basically admitting
that he's the president for only half the country, you
can't be considered the greatest president of all time.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
I Trump is considered the great divider, and we need
a president who's the great uniter.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
That's what you're saying.

Speaker 2 (27:19):
Well, look or or like, take off the table that
you'll never be considered the greatest president of all time.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
If you want to, if you want to be the.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
President for half the country and and and it makes
some decent changes in America, so be it. But but
that will not get you to the place of greatest
president of all time.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
By the way, the other thing that he's craving and
he says.

Speaker 3 (27:39):
About it, yeah, this guy, this guy is.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
Craving a No Peace Prize. He wants it. Yeah, well
he wants it, he says it. I deserve it.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Well, he said, he's not eligible anymore. He but you know,
then there's things bear with me people, especially you maga people.
Then there's things that he's doing that that makes me
fucking laugh my ass off from and there's two of them.
He forced, uh, these these big fucking military guys to

(28:12):
come to come to come to travel from far away
lands for a pep talk. They kept showing the audience.
I'm look, I'm telling you right the fuck now, there's
a lot of guys way up in the military that
hate Trump's guts. They hate his fucking guts, but they
also acknowledge he's the president and what he says goes.

Speaker 4 (28:35):
So already there's been anonymous for the generals and the admirals. Yeah,
there's been some anonymous quotes like saying like, are you
fucking kidding me? This could have been done in an email.
There was no strategy done.

Speaker 2 (28:51):
This was just popping.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
This was bells and whistles.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
It was And they kept showing the faces of the
female when he said to it, does it's male? This
male that if the females can't do it, so bad?

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Yeah, Like it was just it was a waste of
time for these guys. They had to travel, so they
had to leave their positions, so that that week in
some of these positions and uh. And then first of
all that what's his name doesn't get any respect from
the military. Heg seth.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
They don't like him at all.

Speaker 3 (29:28):
No, they think he's he's a con disaster.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
By the way, they said, this is one of the
reasons he did it is to overcompensate for his complete
and neptitude.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yeah, and he and he was waiting for applause or
laugh breaks and they just weren't there.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
I didn't see this.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
I just loving all this.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
And then Trump and then Trump, uh spent the time.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
You got these guys.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
Rambling. It was like a campaign speech, talking about how
great he is, that he won every fucking territory in America.
The map is all read except for a couple of
little blue dots. And then and they're looking at each
other like why are we here? Tell us why we're here?
And then Trump, fucking oh, he's the best. He starts

(30:15):
talking about walking and how Biden was falling down all
over the place, and then Trump's admitting that he, you know,
when he walks, he walks very very carefully. He admits
that you gotta take your time walking because you don't
want to fall down in front of people. He's telling
these tough ass military guys that he takes his time walking.
And then he goes, look, I don't like Obama at all,

(30:36):
but that guy knew how to walk downstairs.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
And then he's imitating Obama walking down the stairs.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
Oh, opie.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
He like some of the commentary from from what you're
talking about is like they kept using the word.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
He seemed very tired.

Speaker 4 (30:52):
I think it's a nice way of saying like like
does he have some sort of dementia?

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Like that's what like.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
A rambling of an older man. And then I don't
know how talk about this. I'm sorry, I'll defend him.
He's been rambling for years, right.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Okay, that's fine.

Speaker 4 (31:07):
But then he went on this rant about the greatest
enemy that we face to the.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Generals, that.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
Is within, and he goes, do you know why it's
so dangerous because they don't they don't have another uniform on,
so we don't know who they are. But I tell
you the dangerous the most dangerous enemy is from within.
And then he starts talking about how US City is
going to be training ground for the military.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Well, dude, what is going on here?

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Well, ron uh, I know it's not the American way, but.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
You know when American cities are training grounds, it's such
an upsurd statement.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
No, but I've also been to a lot of cities,
and there's a lot of cities where these poor people
can't fucking walk around. So you can't make believe that
there's not major problems in areas of America blue by
the way, because he's using this as a political thing
where he's only focusing on the blue areas, but there's

(32:13):
a lot of red areas in America that are shitholes. Two,
And we can't deny that there are areas all over
America where these people they are just trying to raise
their kids, they're trying to get them to school, they're
trying to work their asses off, they're just trying to
live a life, and they're scared in their own goddamn neighborhoods.
So that's where the Democrats lose me, because it is

(32:34):
a real fucking day. So I think, if you got
the military and if you could squeeze it to something,
understand that.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
But even the Democrats they find you're right. But they're
not being deployed to like the real dangerous areas. They're
being deployed to the tourists, to the tourist locations.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Like I said that that's the problem.

Speaker 4 (32:52):
It's like, it's like if they were deployed to New
York City, they would go to the South Street Seaport.

Speaker 2 (32:58):
Like they hang out in Time Square, Right.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
But what I'm saying, but if you really, Opie, if
you really want to make a fucking difference, go to
the South Bronx man, go to the Bronx wanted a friend.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
Dude, I had, Opie. This is a true story.

Speaker 4 (33:12):
I had a friend who uh we worked together at
Pete's tavern. And then he went into the police academy
and he became a cop because.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
His father was a cop.

Speaker 4 (33:21):
And his first assignment was in the was in the Bronx,
and one of the protocols was is you you you
have to wear a vest when you leave the precinct,
even if you're off duty, because because they're shooting at
you from the roof, right, that's how great?

Speaker 3 (33:39):
So why so put the National Guard there?

Speaker 2 (33:42):
That's what I'm saying. Ron That's that's the problem with
Trump's plan.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
It's like he's.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Using this as as political fodder. He's going only after
the Blue cities.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
OPI sorry.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
They made a movie about how dangerous the Bronx was,
starring Paul Newman for to Patch to the Bronx.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
But that's in the seventies, isn't it?

Speaker 4 (34:01):
So all right, Jesus were thousands of years ago. They
so I'll talk about him.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
So you know, if we have all these especially the
National Guard, and they they're bored, and if you can
put him in some of these hot spots, the real
hot spots, the real hot spots, like you're saying, I
think I'm for that. I think.

Speaker 4 (34:22):
With the National Guard, there were some parts of the
Bronx that are extremely dangerous even for the police.

Speaker 3 (34:30):
I want the National Guard there right.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Oh, by the way, I have to officially say this,
f mom, Donnie.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
What happened?

Speaker 2 (34:41):
Why what do you do? Now? Well, I mean he's
gonna be the next mayor of New York City, which
is absolutely easy.

Speaker 3 (34:46):
You're gonna win a landslide.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
It's absolutely crazy. You know, Cuomo is the best shot.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
Slee was not, and Sleeve was not gonna He's not
going to tap out and it's going to fuck the voting.
And this guy's gonna win in a landslide. But he
he's not a fan of the cops, and I'm a
huge fan of uh the NYPD, huge fan.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
So just to let so give you context.

Speaker 4 (35:08):
He was one of those guys during the Rodney not
Rodney King, the.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
Floyd, yeah, George Floyd Lloyd.

Speaker 3 (35:17):
Black Lives Matter.

Speaker 4 (35:18):
He was literally one of the one of the bullboys
to fund the police, to fund the police, to fund
the police.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
Oh yeah, yeah, well yeah, yeah, you know, being pissed
off at that situation and then basically trying to say
that every cops bad is it's insanity.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
This is why I try not to even bring any
of this up.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
And since no one, no one, no one thinks logically
about any of this stuff anymore.

Speaker 4 (35:42):
Well, the one thing Cuomo said was is he wants
to bring the police levels back up. And he said like,
like it's we needed like another three thousand cops to go.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
Back up to bring them. I want I want safety, dude.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
I don't want to have to worry about walking to
and from we're walking to and from the subway.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
I don't want to have to worry about on the subway.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Like I know it's not I know it's not, uh
what we believe in in America. But when you see
an army guy with an automatic weapon at the top
of the subway stairs, that's a that's a day where
I feel insanely safe. And that's all people want in
this country is is to feel fucking safe.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
When I go on to a subway platform and I
see you know, I see them in their army fatigues,
I instantly relax because I know there's someone else here
to deal with whatever madness there is, because there are
just there's crazy people.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
Look, I you know, I'm uh, I'm not gonna lie
to you. I'm brilliant.

Speaker 2 (36:47):
I play stupid because I don't want people to really
understand my my full brilliance.

Speaker 3 (36:52):
You are You're not just a pretty face.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
You understand this, right, So I played dumb on purpose.
But the Democrats, once again, their ideology is insanely too
far fucking left. So when the when Trump is talking
about using like troops and the National Guard for training ground,
they lose their minds and not one of them will

(37:14):
step up and go, well, all right, all right, we
do have problems, but maybe we could do this in
a way that makes sense. But instead it's like, oh,
this is outrageous.

Speaker 4 (37:24):
We one Democrat senator who talks like that, right, Fetterman,
you know, the big, fucking the giant guy who wears
the hoodies.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
He talks like a Republican anyways.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
But oh no, he's he's gonna switch parties.

Speaker 4 (37:39):
It's Sarah, Yeah, yeah, it's so obvious.

Speaker 2 (37:43):
It's so obvious, Opie.

Speaker 4 (37:45):
He's one of the guys who's gonna vote right to
keep the government open, right because because they need the
Republicans need seven Democrats to vote.

Speaker 3 (37:56):
Yeah, Federman is one of them.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Yes for this thing.

Speaker 2 (38:00):
He's all right, you want to oh h hey, hold on,
can I?

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Can I?

Speaker 4 (38:11):
What are you are you hearing about this Saudi Arabian
Comedy festival and all the controversy.

Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah, it's a little weird.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
Uh comedians are going for a payday and and I
guess my thought is what's the what's the uh the
backstory on this ron.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
So we got well, you know, it really started first
like Saudi Arabia has this campaign now where they want
to like reinvent themselves to the world. Remember, first they
live the live golf tournament. Guess what, they just bought

(38:47):
a sports Madden. They bought e a sports So now
they own.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
E a sports Madden, which is the biggest fucking They
got Formula one racing like they're they're trying to change
their image, right.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
And they got the money to buy everything, which is, uh,
you know that's a little scary.

Speaker 4 (39:05):
But so you're a golf guy, you remember initially when
Saudi Arabia created this live tournament, the Live Golf Pro League,
and the money was just outrageous. And then the hold
on and then the golf the pro golfers who went
over got ridiculed like Tiger Woods didn't do it and

(39:28):
Rory McElroy didn't do it right, but.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
A lot of them did.

Speaker 4 (39:33):
And and now it's the same thing is happening in
the comedy world.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
Can I interrupt you for a second because you're listening
to the comedy thing. But I do have to say this.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
I don't blame I'll talk about the PGA.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
I don't blame those guys for going for a payday live.
The Live Golf League stinks. I tried watching it. It's terrible.
But I don't blame these guys. I'll tell you why.
The amount of money that the PGA fought fucking makes
and they held back a ton of this money from
the players. And I know these players are are rich.
I know they got private planes, and they got chefs

(40:08):
and trainers and coaches. I get it, you're all wealthy.
But the amount of money that is still left on
the table that the PGA keeps for themselves was insane.
So when Live came along and said, hey man, we'll
give you a hundred million fuckers.

Speaker 4 (40:23):
Hold on, hold on, hold on, how do you know
that how do you know that, Like.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Because I worked for a corporation, right.

Speaker 4 (40:29):
Okay, hold on, hold on, let me just wrap my
brain around this. So, like the NFL is like one
of the biggest corporations in the world, Like they're worth billions. Hey,
are you saying the PGA is like that?

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Oh my god, the amount of money they make it.

Speaker 4 (40:42):
So the PGA is as big as the NFL, like as.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
Other No, I would have to say the NFL.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
I'm saying they're powerful, they're wealthy.

Speaker 1 (40:50):
Okay, oh, ron when you work for a fucking corporation.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
So back in my HEYAOPI and Anthony, we had a
fight for every goddamn penny from the these guys, and we
were bringing in we were bringing in billions of dollars.
We in our career at satellite radio. We brought in
billions of dollars for the company. And then and look,
I got this, I'm doing all right for myself. But

(41:15):
the fact is I knew that we were extremely underpaid,
that these corporations to keep all the money for themselves.

Speaker 4 (41:23):
I guess have a quick, stupid question when you say
you made billions for them, is that through because your
numbers were so big, they could charge a lot of
money for the advertisement.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Is that how it.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Works, dude? We were massive. Everyone had to subscribe, and
it was back in the day. Oh okay, before they
started giving away the service for free. If you if
your serious runs out, you know, call them and go,
I'll give you a buck a month.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
They're going to accept the deal. But back in the
day they did not.

Speaker 2 (41:52):
It was expensive to listen to satellite radio, and our
whole fan base was over at Serious Act just got
a curiodicy for that. Sorry, Ron, because now you got
fired up. On top of that, every hour we were
doing five six live reads an hour per thousands of
dollars per read.

Speaker 4 (42:07):
Oh you mean reading the ads per read.

Speaker 1 (42:10):
It was a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (42:12):
We saw the kitching, and then when our contract was up,
we had to fight for a fucking raise.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
Are you I have a question?

Speaker 4 (42:20):
Yeah, when you said a lot of the money was
made people had to subscribe. How much was it to
sign up to listen to Open Anthony back then?

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Bro? I think I mean the hardcores could tell me,
but I believe it was something like twenty dollars a month.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
And then it's an I believe.

Speaker 4 (42:38):
So because here's My other question how many how many viewers? Like,
how many people were paying? How there's a thousands.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
I'm not going to play the Howard Stern game. Howard
Stern likes to tell people, you know, he talked to millions.
It's not true at this point. If Howard's talking to
one hundred thousand people, I'd be amazed. But they never
told us the numbers.

Speaker 4 (42:58):
Really No, By the way, if they're not telling you
the numbers, that means the numbers are huge and they
don't want and they don't want you to ask for
more money.

Speaker 2 (43:06):
That's what I'm getting at Ron because I'm like, hey,
you know, I'm curious how many people we talked to?
You guys would do it very well.

Speaker 4 (43:17):
See, That's what I would get my attorney go, I
want to know what the numbers are.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Like, we fought, we had to fight, we had to
fight for raises. There were times I said, fuck you guys,
I ain't re signing, and I held everyone up because
I truly believed what we were doing was worth way
more fucking money.

Speaker 4 (43:33):
Can people make that type of money now in radio?

Speaker 3 (43:36):
Or it's just the whole day? No, God, no, it's
all podcasts. So podcast is the new radio.

Speaker 2 (43:44):
And maybe someday we'll get a taste of that, but
right now we're not obviously. But so, you know, when
the live thing came to these players, I'm like, I
kind of get it. I kind of get it. But
the comedy thing, I think is a little different.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
I really do.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
Why hold on? Why why is it different? Then?

Speaker 2 (44:01):
Then I think those guys could make that money easily
just doing their thing in America or in other uh
oh wait a minute, in other countries. That our ideology
kind of lines up.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
So you're saying it's actually worse.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
Like you're saying, uh, one of the excuses for the
PGA was they weren't getting a fair share, but you're
saying the comedians are already making the money, So it's
it's a little worse.

Speaker 2 (44:29):
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna lie. It's a bit
hypocritical my statement, I guess, but I feel like, uh,
you know, some of the big names, I feel like
they could easily make that money by okay, hold on,
by not doing that.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
Hold On, that's a nice segue.

Speaker 4 (44:45):
Let's go into who decided to go, who decided not
to go?

Speaker 3 (44:50):
And by the way, let me start with this op.

Speaker 4 (44:52):
Yeah, the pay this is this is the payscale they
were offering.

Speaker 3 (44:57):
Yeah, they offered Tim Dillon.

Speaker 2 (44:59):
You know that.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
Sure, yeah, Yeah, he's everly been on the show.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
He's not He's insanely talented and I think he does
an amazing job.

Speaker 4 (45:09):
He almost seems like he's got that Boston mentality.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
Is he is he from Boston?

Speaker 2 (45:14):
I did I want to say he's from like Long Allen,
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
I don't know much.

Speaker 4 (45:17):
About Okay, he's got that Northeast kind of.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
He's absolutely awesome. Okay, I'm a fan of Tim Dillon.

Speaker 4 (45:24):
Go ahead, so let me start with Tim Dillon. He
was actually gonna do it. He was one of the
guys that said yes, okay. So the pay rate they
offered Tim Dillon three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (45:37):
That's a lot of money, plus travel and.

Speaker 4 (45:40):
Ex Right by the way, some of the comedians, I
just want to put a perspective, some of the committeans
were offered up to one point six million.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
You got to do it.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
So, Tim Dillon, you only offered three hundred and seventy
five thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (45:56):
It's like, you know, it's almost half a million.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
Dollars for one show for one weekend.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
Right. No, no, he didn't turn it down.

Speaker 4 (46:03):
The fucking idiot went on his podcast, The Idiots.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
That's why I love this guy because I do the
same stupid ship what he did.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
He fucking lost half a million dollars, you know.

Speaker 4 (46:19):
So he goes on his podcast making fun of like
a joke about slavery in Saudi Arabia and they heard
about it.

Speaker 3 (46:25):
But fuck you, you're done that.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
No, Ron, give me a second. That's why I loved
Tim Dillon because I did all the same ship if
I I can't tell you how many times the money
he lost. People around me said, will you just fucking
behave and shut your mouth. You got a good life,
you're making good money. And I was like, I can't.

Speaker 1 (46:44):
I can't help myself.

Speaker 2 (46:47):
Yeah. I loved him Dylon for doing that, you know,
because he was because he's like, look, I gotta be
true to myself. I love the people that are true
to themselves. I hate the fake comedians that aren't true
to themselves. Tim Dillon is true to himself.

Speaker 4 (47:00):
Continue all right, So these are the people who accepted it.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
Gabriel Iglesias Jim Jeffries. I think he's English.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
He's a friend of mine, Jim really, yes, Joe Coy.
He still supports me to this day, Jim Jim Jeffries, Yes, dude,
he's a really fucking smart guy. Right.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
He's awesome.

Speaker 2 (47:23):
He's absolutely fucking awesome. I go see him every time
he's in New York. Uh you know, we we hang
in the green room. Least is off talking about the
old days. He told me I got fucked by the
Opien Anthony audience.

Speaker 3 (47:38):
You invited him on the show.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
You know what, Ron, I feel like I big enough
when I post my Instagram stuff. He likes a lot
of my stuff on the Instagram.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
If you're in town, swing Bot, I'm.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
Gonna be honest with you.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
I feel like I dropped so incredibly uh low in
my career that I I don't like asking for favors anymore.
At first, when I started the podcast, I was like,
all right, you.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
Gotta hey, come on.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
I just feel like it's like, I don't know, I
don't know what it is, Ron, because I just feel
like i'd be bothering some of these people at this point.
There was a time I didn't think that, but now
I kind of do.

Speaker 4 (48:18):
No, I think you feel you'd be a little embarrassed, like,
oh look where, look where OPI ended up?

Speaker 2 (48:23):
Yeah, you know, so I know that maybe doesn't sound right,
but I'm trying to be honest with everybody.

Speaker 4 (48:29):
Jim jeff English, huh, he's English, Jim Jeffries Australian.

Speaker 3 (48:34):
Oh, that's it, okay, but.

Speaker 2 (48:37):
He cut his teeth in England, okay.

Speaker 4 (48:40):
Bobby Lee, Yeah, first of all, path First of all,
I don't know why you make don't make extra coffee
when you're on with Ronny.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
And I got a fresh Did you say, Bobby hold on?

Speaker 3 (48:52):
Did you say Bobby Lee's a psychopath?

Speaker 2 (48:54):
He's nuts?

Speaker 3 (48:55):
What do you mean, He's fucking nuts?

Speaker 2 (48:58):
You have a padic attext every time he was on
Opiate Anthony.

Speaker 3 (49:02):
Dude, he's so interesting, right, I was just so interesting.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
Just because I said that doesn't mean I don't love him.

Speaker 4 (49:08):
He's awesome and he's no I'm saying, like, he's just
a guy you just like to watch.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
He's he's just interesting.

Speaker 2 (49:13):
Can I tell you the story? Can I tell you
about this?

Speaker 1 (49:16):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (49:17):
So they built us a state of the art studio
when we were at Accent before Sirius fucking got their stupid,
greasy hands involved and they took away our our state
of the art studio and forced us to be with
the rest of those assholes in a tiny studio. Like
we're veal. We had our own thing going on that
was amazing, but the middle fucking management didn't want to

(49:39):
walk to meetings with us, so they're like, no, we
need you in the building with everybody else. So they
took away this insane space. It was a multi million
dollar buildout. It was gorgeous. We had a glass wall
with bleachers and people could come off the street and
watch the show live. They took all of this away
and put us in a tiny studio and we still

(49:59):
made it work, by the way, but it was.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
It wasn't easy.

Speaker 2 (50:03):
But in the state of the art studio, we uh.

Speaker 1 (50:06):
This is how amazing the studio was.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
If we felt like standing during our radio show, we
could push a button.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
And the whole console would rise up, would rise.

Speaker 2 (50:17):
Up, and then if we wanted to sit down, we
push the button and it all goes down, so I
could push buttons and the mics are in the proper place.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
That's success. Yeah, no, shit, you don't have that now, buddy.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
So yeah, all right, Ron, But Bobby Lee would come
in and uh, we would push the button and make
the whole fucking console go up and down right and
make him go no, no, no no, and we may
believe it wasn't happening. We set this up ahead of
time because we knew how paranoid he was. The console

(50:50):
would start going up, and he goes, guys, guys, the console,
and we're like, what are you talking about, Bobby? Everyone
played it fucking perfect, perfect.

Speaker 3 (50:59):
You have that.

Speaker 2 (51:00):
You must have that footage somewhere. Maybe I.

Speaker 3 (51:05):
Want to see that.

Speaker 2 (51:06):
I know, I don't know that money.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
I'm not sure if I've ever seen a video of
that online. I'm not sure.

Speaker 2 (51:12):
But it drove him nuts because we wouldn't acknowledge it,
and he's like, he started thinking, I'm going fucking crazy.
Am I seeing what I'm seeing? These guys not.

Speaker 3 (51:20):
Catching on it? Huh, he's not catching on that as
a joke.

Speaker 2 (51:23):
No, And then many times he just ran out of
the studio because he was having panic attacks. I love
Bobby really, Oh god? All right.

Speaker 4 (51:31):
Next, So Bastin Man, Man of Scalco overrated?

Speaker 2 (51:36):
Yes, Oh really? I thought he was always overrated.

Speaker 3 (51:42):
Just what he sells out MSG.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Yeah, because these fucking comedy fans that they don't they
don't need a lot.

Speaker 3 (51:53):
I guess you're going to say something about him.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
What what I was? I was gonna say. If he's
not thanking Dyke every fucking day he wakes up, why
why do you pay attention to comedy at all?

Speaker 3 (52:07):
Why he would open up for Dice?

Speaker 2 (52:09):
No, he has that Dice vibe about Uh.

Speaker 4 (52:12):
Oh, oh, you're saying he stole it.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
He's just missing a cigarette that's not lit.

Speaker 4 (52:19):
Oh you're saying he kind of yeah. Oh you're saying
he kind of stole his mannerisms.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Yeah, he feels like dice light. Go ahead, all right.

Speaker 4 (52:30):
Next Sam Morrell, Oh yeah, moral Sam Morrel.

Speaker 2 (52:34):
You know he is, Yeah, New York comic. He did
my show. He's a good guy.

Speaker 4 (52:38):
He seems like a really nice guy, just very laid back.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
He's a very smart comedian, big Knicks fan.

Speaker 4 (52:45):
Continue, very he seems like a very introspective guy.

Speaker 2 (52:48):
No, I have no problems with the Sam Okay.

Speaker 4 (52:51):
Next, by the way, before I continue, I'm gonna say
it again. The Saudi's offered between two hundred and seventy
five thousand to one point six million. I think you
know when some of these comedians, I'm gonna say, I
think you know who got in the millions. But anyways,
next Mark Norman, he's he's another one that he's a

(53:13):
little dude. I think there was a he was talking
about like how he's like he would never wear a
winter coat.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
He's like, like.

Speaker 3 (53:24):
Who am I to wear a winter coat?

Speaker 2 (53:26):
How about those videos are all over by YouTube channel,
OPI radio.

Speaker 1 (53:30):
He's absolutely insane.

Speaker 2 (53:32):
He he doesn't he feels like he doesn't deserve his success,
so he won't buy smoothies for a long time, have
a winter coat. He didn't have furniture in his apartment.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
Like his fucking Oh my god, but I love.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
I don't know why I've cursed. Sorry guys all.

Speaker 4 (53:51):
Next Russell Peters, why does that sound familiar?

Speaker 2 (53:54):
Russell Peters. Uh, he's a international comedian. I saw him
at Radio City. I like this actually because I have
something on all these guys. Russell Peters befriended me, invited
me to his Radio City music Hall show. Did the
show a bunch? Wasn't the funniest on our show? By
There are a ton of guys that were way funnier

(54:15):
than him, but he kept it going, and he was
a good rock or White.

Speaker 1 (54:19):
He's he's uh.

Speaker 2 (54:22):
For him, he's a he's got a hip hop vive.
I don't know what is that? Yeah, okay, but you know,
he kept things going on the show, but he certainly
wasn't the funniest by a long shot. And he invited
me to his Radio City Music Hall. And I'll tell
you what, man, he's beyond fucking funny when he's doing
his stand up.

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Some of these guys really.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
Funny on the radio stand up not so good sucks
on the radio.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
Really good at stand up.

Speaker 2 (54:49):
And every once in a while he got someone like
Bill Bird that was was great at both. Yeah, but
it was a rarity. A lot of Patres great at both,
Bob Kelly great at both.

Speaker 3 (55:00):
Okay. I think we said this before.

Speaker 4 (55:02):
There are some like very talented comedians who are who
are destroy on stage and off stage.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
They're fucking duds.

Speaker 2 (55:10):
Yeah. I saw it more times than I could count,
but uh so, no. Wait, Russell Peters invited me to
his Radio City Music Hall as a stand up I
think you would appreciate this. He does comedy ron for
the fucking world.

Speaker 1 (55:25):
For the world.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
He'll be like, where's my Pakistanians at? And then there'll
be a little pocket of people way up in the
rafts screaming and yelling. He'll do a couple jokes for them,
and then he's like, where's where's all my uh, you know,
London people or whatever. And then and then he does
material for that. But then the material you don't understand
because you're not from that part of the world. You're
still laughing because of his delivery and how he prosessed material.

(55:49):
I was absolutely amazed going to a Russell Peters show
how he was able to control this giant crowd at
Radio City Music Hall, knowing that they're from all over
the planet.

Speaker 3 (56:00):
Talent talent.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
Jeff Ross, you know he's all right.

Speaker 3 (56:06):
Yeah, who just finished his Broadway run?

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 1 (56:09):
I mean, I think the roast thing is a little overplaced.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Okay, that he found a lane for himself and this
guy's to pay the bills.

Speaker 4 (56:16):
Yeah this now, this next comic, he's an international comic.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
Sugar Sammy.

Speaker 2 (56:21):
Yeah, I don't know him literally the first time I'm
hearing the name even really enough.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
I think he's like Arabic or something. Andrew Schultz.

Speaker 2 (56:31):
Funny fucking guy.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
He didn't a couple of times. Really really yeah, he's.

Speaker 4 (56:37):
Yeah, I feel like he's probably if he's on your show,
I'm sure he he always delivers.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
He just seems like he's really really smart.

Speaker 3 (56:46):
Yes, very smart. Hold On, I got.

Speaker 2 (56:51):
A few more.

Speaker 4 (56:53):
Hold on a second, I got a few more names.
And what and this afternoon we'll go over the that movie.

Speaker 1 (57:00):
Oh right, yeah, well we'll do that.

Speaker 4 (57:02):
Hold on, I got a few more, No problem, TODM. Sigora, Ah,
what happened?

Speaker 3 (57:10):
What happened? Opie?

Speaker 2 (57:12):
He's all right.

Speaker 3 (57:14):
Did you have a fallout with him? No fallout, But.

Speaker 2 (57:18):
My honesty gets me in trouble. He did the show
a couple of times. It was very forgettable. He's but
he's a good guy and he's got massive success, so
good for him.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
I guess him and his wife do very well.

Speaker 2 (57:29):
And then he does the thing with the Bert Kreischer,
the show with the Bert Kreischer. You know, Bert's carrying
that ship, so he should be buying Bert Lamborghinis every year.

Speaker 3 (57:42):
All right, go ahead, Chris Tucker. Oh, he's big.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
What he's big?

Speaker 3 (57:48):
He's big, he's big.

Speaker 4 (57:49):
Yeah, he's all right, all right, ready, Moamar.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
The are you gonna do the media working today?

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

Speaker 4 (57:57):
I don't know that guy's I'm sorry, these is uh
too cool for the room.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
He was on the show and he looked, Yeah, he
looked down upon us when he was on.

Speaker 4 (58:07):
I felt, well, he had he had a lot of success,
what in recreations, pocks and recreations.

Speaker 2 (58:14):
The guy he's an alternative comic and he came in
and I felt like he was kind of looking down
at us like this, you know, this was beneath us.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
Excuse me?

Speaker 2 (58:22):
And I'm like, we're a fucking giant show.

Speaker 3 (58:24):
And I know he had some issues with the ladies.

Speaker 2 (58:27):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (58:28):
Continue, Wayne Brady, what happened?

Speaker 3 (58:34):
What happened?

Speaker 1 (58:34):
Now?

Speaker 3 (58:36):
What happened?

Speaker 2 (58:36):
There's a reason why he's doing the what is it?
The price is Right? There's a reason he's doing that.
Him and the other well, I know he does let's
make a deal, right, and then then the other guy
is doing the price is right?

Speaker 3 (58:49):
Doesn't many like whose line is it? Anyways? It did
that improv thing.

Speaker 1 (58:53):
He's pretty good at that.

Speaker 2 (58:53):
But those comedians that uh, you know, end up doing
a stupid game show. There's a reason, all right, Hannibal,
do you think what's the other guy on the price
is right? I forgot his name. There's a reason why
he's stuck doing that show.

Speaker 3 (59:11):
You're fucking he's in.

Speaker 2 (59:13):
That guy's in hell. But the reason is that, you know,
his stand up was just okay, and he he realized
he had to make a change. He had a huge show,
Drew Drew Carry Carry there's a reason success. Yeah, but
this is a reason why he's hosted a fucking game show.
Let's be all right, no one wants to host the

(59:35):
game show. You know how boring that ship is.

Speaker 3 (59:38):
You better be careful. Ryan Seacrest is gonna hear you.

Speaker 4 (59:41):
Oh god, Ryan, go ahead, okay, Next, Hannibal Burris.

Speaker 1 (59:46):
Speaks his mine.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
Man, he's the reason why, uh you know, fucking cosby
a lot of that ship came to everyone's attention, right.

Speaker 1 (59:55):
Bro, I really gotta go in a couple of minutes,
So go ahead.

Speaker 4 (59:59):
Right next, your boy, who's probably in the one point something,
Bill Burr, Bill.

Speaker 2 (01:00:05):
Bird, insanely talented. Consider him a friend to this day.
When I text him, he writes me right back, did
amazing radio? Amazing radio? Controversial radio spoke his mind and
I think he's you know, I would say he's pretty
much the top comedian working today. There's a few guys close,

(01:00:27):
I guess, but he's right up there. Okay, he's gotta
be making what one point six he's.

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
Probably the guy making in the million. There's another guy,
uh is it? I forget his name, never mind, Okay,
after Bill Bird, Jimmy Carr.

Speaker 3 (01:00:49):
I think he's English.

Speaker 2 (01:00:50):
No, yeah, I think he did the show a couple
of times.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
He is oh really, yeah, he's intense, man, what do
you mean tense? Like he seems like, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
He's tense.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Yeah, he's uh yeah, he's he's funny, he's fun, but
he also knew not to get on his bad side.

Speaker 4 (01:01:09):
Okay, so after him, you know, this guy's getting the
top dollar. Dave Chappelle, Yeah, all right, okay, after him,
top dollar, Louis c K all right, next, Whitney Cummings.

Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
All right, I'm just getting bored with the list show.

Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
And Louis c K did the show and he was
he was great, and.

Speaker 3 (01:01:32):
All right, this guy did your show, Christis Stefano.

Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
Oh I didn't know he was doing it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
All right, he's doing it okay.

Speaker 4 (01:01:39):
And to top it off, Bill I think he's done
your show, Kevin Hart, Kevin Heart, Can I tell you
quickly who.

Speaker 3 (01:01:49):
Turned it down?

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
And I have a lot of respect, I mean, good
for Kevin Hart, but he's an embarrassment in the stand
up community with all those stupid fucking commercials. Right, But
he's making insane money doing it.

Speaker 4 (01:02:00):
Dude, he's the Peyton Manning of comics when it comes
to fucking he does every fucking Dude, he seriously does
every fucking commercial I know.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
And he's good and he's the good guys from North
Phillip I should be trash of the guy, but it's like.

Speaker 1 (01:02:14):
Those commercials are so stupid.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Is he even five feet?

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
He is insanely short.

Speaker 4 (01:02:21):
Like I think he's four and I don't think. I
think he's maybe five ft.

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
I think if I had a guess, i'd say he's
about five to four and maybe five to six with
maybe a little heel.

Speaker 4 (01:02:33):
Okay, before we go to there you go this afternoon,
we'll do that movie thing. Go hold on, this is
I fucking respect.

Speaker 2 (01:03:47):
You come up with lists and things for the show, but.

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):

Speaker 2 (01:03:51):
The rock trivia segment last week at Get Parts went
on for an hour and a half, Like are you

Speaker 3 (01:04:08):
What?

Speaker 2 (01:04:08):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
What are you getting at with this?

Speaker 3 (01:04:11):
What do you mean? What am I getting at?

Speaker 4 (01:04:12):
I'm getting at who accepted and who didn't accept?

Speaker 3 (01:04:15):
Oh David Croft didn't accept. I respect him, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:04:19):
My kids are gonna be late for school. How many
more comedians are you going to understand?

Speaker 4 (01:04:23):
Your kids are like juniors and seniors in high school?
They why do you have to get them up? They're adults,
They're up on their own. I know, So what do
you have to do?

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
Told the story? I used to love waking my kids
up every morning, and then my wife got them alarm clock,
so instead of me gently waking them up, now they
wake up like this.

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
I know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (01:04:45):
Like you say, I got to get the kids ready
for school?

Speaker 3 (01:04:47):
What are you gonna do?

Speaker 2 (01:04:49):
I'm gonna walk up to school because I like doing that.
They could easily walk to school themselves.

Speaker 4 (01:04:55):
I know, but that's not getting them ready to go
to school. You're taking them though.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
You don't have to do any Instead, I make sure
they got their way?

Speaker 3 (01:05:02):
Are you making them breakfast?

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
I do good.

Speaker 2 (01:05:04):
Morning shift because I go to bed kind of early
morning shift here and does the late shift with the
homework and everything else. It's just how we.

Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
Do it in our house. Do they make their own breakfast.

Speaker 4 (01:05:14):
Or you make it for them both?

Speaker 3 (01:05:18):
And if you make them breakfast, what is it?

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
Eggs, a lot of smoothies, pancakes, I got some bagels.
It's just, dude. I like being a father. I know,
I know in this date agent.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Are you trying to tell me?

Speaker 4 (01:05:33):
Are you trying to tell me you like to have
breakfast with your children before school?

Speaker 2 (01:05:37):
Oh my god, God, oh my god.

Speaker 3 (01:05:39):
It's like fucking Norman Rockwell here.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
I know.

Speaker 3 (01:05:41):
I know. It's a little house on the prairie.

Speaker 2 (01:05:45):
I know, Ron, But what are you getting at Ron?

Speaker 3 (01:05:47):
You like you enjoy your children. It's so and it's stupid.
It's so weird. It's so weird.

Speaker 2 (01:05:53):
Like and then these haters try to spin it.

Speaker 4 (01:05:55):
Stop.

Speaker 2 (01:05:56):
I like being a dad.

Speaker 3 (01:05:59):
You you're a dad? You like it?

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
I like it? Yeah, I like you. They can literally
do all of this, and they do most of it,
if you need to know, you fucking weirdo hater. But
the fact is, I like being a dad and I
like being them when I can listen.

Speaker 4 (01:06:15):
I don't know how much time you had that, but
I had a topic about your about related to your children.
We can talk about it this afternoon, all right, Yeah,
because I really do.

Speaker 2 (01:06:24):
Got to go because I I promised them I would
get them to school sometimes I drive, and I want
to talk to you today. Yeah, go ahad hold on, I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:06:32):
Gonna give you a little teaser. I did want to
bring this up with you because I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Really those comedians. What was your point about it? What
what you mentioned all those comedians doing that show that.

Speaker 4 (01:06:43):
The point is, I'm just letting you know who accepted,
who didn't, and it was very good. You had nice
stories about people. Well good, very nice. You're welcome.

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
I gotta be honest. I think the amount of money
they're offering, you know, they're they're they're most of these
comedians are are morally broken to begin with. If you
want to know the truth, I think if if I surprise.

Speaker 4 (01:07:08):
Bill Burr accepted, Nah, are you disappointed?

Speaker 2 (01:07:14):
I mean I'm a little yeah, I knowing knowing uh
the money O be knowing how they handle things. Yeah,
But I'm not the I'm not the moral police here.
I think if they're able to spin in such a
way like, look, we just went to take their fucking money.

Speaker 1 (01:07:32):
It'll be interesting what they.

Speaker 3 (01:07:33):
Say Carlin wouldn't have done it. Who George Carlin would
not have done it?

Speaker 4 (01:07:38):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:07:38):
Yeah, no, no no, But you know it's a different world. Yeah,
of course, I'm kind of disappointed a lot of these
guys are doing it, but you know, it's a huge
fucking payday. Jesus Christ and and and they're not morally
sound to begin with. I think if you're looking at
them like they got great morals, these comedians.

Speaker 3 (01:07:57):
The point, part of the point of this whole thing
was is so who gave in?

Speaker 4 (01:08:03):
Who accepted this, who accepted the you know, the devil's gift,
and who didn't.

Speaker 2 (01:08:10):
I think some of the upper tier comedians like Bill Burr,
Louis c k.

Speaker 3 (01:08:15):
They don't need the money, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (01:08:17):
They don't need the money, and they can easily make
doing it. That's make that up easily by the lower
level guys like Sam Morrel, Mark Norman, even though they're
they're doing pretty well for themselves. Christ the Steffan are
doing well for himself, but he's not at the top tier.

Speaker 4 (01:08:33):
I hold on you don't think christ Stefano is a
top tier comic.

Speaker 2 (01:08:38):
He's getting there, He's on his way. He's not He's yeah, no,
he's getting there. I don't I'm not here to trash
my friend Chris, but I'm saying maybe he's a bad example. Actually,
ron h, I think some of the lower level guys
huge payday to get it, But some of these other guys,

(01:09:02):
they could easily say no and make up pretty much
all that money. So I guess that's where I'm at.

Speaker 4 (01:09:07):
I mean, the controversy is you're sleeping with the devil
because of the human rights to trocities, right, So I
get it, like, hey, if you really need the money,
you know your family. But Dave Chappelle don't need the money,
Luisy k don't need the money.

Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
Kevin Hart doesn't need the money.

Speaker 4 (01:09:23):
Yeah, so and they're still doing it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:27):
Wayne Brady does not need the money. That guy's super Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:31):
Yeah, no, I'm I think we're in agreement.

Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
I think I see it both ways.

Speaker 2 (01:09:36):
Lower level guy can get a giant payday and if
they're able to spin it after the fact, you know,
but some of these guys blatantly don't need the money,
and it's just it's just bad press for them in
the end. So all right, ron I gotta go.

Speaker 4 (01:09:50):
All right, well we'll finish, we'll finish this afternoon.

Speaker 1 (01:09:54):
Oh, we're doing. We're doing.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
Look at the.

Speaker 3 (01:09:57):
Sun coming right over your shoulder.

Speaker 1 (01:10:00):
Ago, there's the actually.

Speaker 4 (01:10:01):
Oh now you can see your face. Your skin looks good.

Speaker 2 (01:10:04):
What do you go to a?

Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
You had your skin done?

Speaker 2 (01:10:07):
No? I put some uh, I put some alo vera
on it this morning.

Speaker 3 (01:10:11):
To put you don't you don't get facials with your wife.
You don't do the spa.

Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Oh that shit fucking sailed a long time ago. Oh really,
let me tell you a good facial every once in
a while. Good God, you.

Speaker 4 (01:10:24):
Know why I think you do that a lot because
you told me the story where you were doing like
hot yoga with your wife and some woman wanted to
take your blankets.

Speaker 2 (01:10:32):
No, that wasn't hot yoga, but there was whatever. Yeah
that was. That was ten dollars, dude, Jesus, that was.

Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
That was over the summer.

Speaker 2 (01:10:40):
That was the gong uh bath or whatever they call it.
Lady played the gong and you lay there and you
put you put blankets on.

Speaker 1 (01:10:49):
I loved I actually liked it so.

Speaker 2 (01:10:54):
Right you've got some of that weird fucking spiritual ship
in you as well.

Speaker 1 (01:10:59):
That don't make too much fun.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
Rye.

Speaker 4 (01:11:00):
And by the way, we have a special guests get
pots uh comedian Tony p from Queens.

Speaker 2 (01:11:06):
Oh my god, our numbers are gonna fucking shoot through
the roof. Oh my god, why isn't he over there

we do to get him for the big show this afternoon?

Speaker 4 (01:11:37):
You got, you got you gotta shooting start Ron Berman.

Speaker 1 (01:11:40):
Yeah, I like the Ron. I'm not gonna lie to you.

Speaker 2 (01:11:42):
I like the Ron. All right, Ron, I gotta go.

Speaker 3 (01:11:45):
I'll see you this afternoon. Bye everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:11:47):
Once again, we didn't get to anything, which I think
might be a good thing.

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
Now that's good.

Speaker 4 (01:11:51):
And by the way, fucking red Socks fucked you, Nick
the Turo, You fucking piece of shit, Red hot, red
hot dude, Nick to Turo lost his mind. The Yankees
had the bases loaded with nobody out, like in the
eighth inning. They down three to one and didn't fucking
score up. Rech rech ho, all right, your frozen nick

(01:12:20):
to Turo is probably the biggest Yankees fan I've ever
seen
