Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You can live without taste and touch. They're bullshit ones.
You're just saying in the earrings of the No one
even knows what the fifth one is emotions.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
I don't know, fear. It's I can live without smell. Smell, smell, smell.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
I would prefer to not have smell. If I work
up without a sense of smell for the rest of
your life, that would be a blessing.

Speaker 3 (00:27):
Welcome, Jim Jeffries, Thank you. You're so welcome. I'm a
little intimidated because you're like an actual talented human.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Oh, comedian, that's that's hardly.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
That's the hardest. I feel like that's the hardest profession.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
That's what they say, that's what they say. But this
hearted job, surely.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
I mean, I'm impressed. You've got an impressive resume. I
love your stand up.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (00:47):
Your your ship on Netflix is absolutely fantastic. And I
don't want to say that, like I know good comedy,
but like I know, fucking good comedy. Not everybody is
for me. You're for me. I love this you brought.
Your stunning wife is beautiful.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
She all the jokes are made about her. She gets
dragged over the colls in my stand up these days.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
I mean, I always there's so much I want to
talk to you about. You're the first comedian that we've
had on the podcast besides myself. Great at least I laugh.
I'm like, I'm so fucking funny. Okay. So you have
your stand ups that you do. You you're a writer,

(01:32):
you have or how to sitcom on FX Legit, and
then you stepped into hosting. Is this your first? The
Snake on the.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Snake is my first American game show that I've hosted,
but the One Percent Club, which actually is the intro
the leading for the Snake on America, which is hosted
by John McHale. I host the Australian version of that.
So so I do a little bit of TV and
I hosted The Jim Jeffrey Show as well, which.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
Was okay, So this isn't like your first your first
hosting gig of a game show.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
It's my first sort of reality show hosting thing like
the other shows, straight question answer type of thing where
I'm actually in the jungle and people are doing activities
and eating bugs and all that crap, you know what
I mean. Like that's my first type of that job.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
It's like a little fear factor in it.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
There's a little fear factor, there's a little big brother,
there's a little surviveor the secret source of the snake,
and the snake's brilliant. By the way, if you haven't
seen The Snake yet, go to Hulu watch it beings.
The first three episodes. I'll be honest with the first
episode's the worst one because they're explaining everything, So get
through that. One second one's been I just watched the

(02:41):
third one. The third one's ace right. But the big
secret with the game is we've seen a lot of
shows where people have to do discusting tasks to get
through the next round or whatever. You're in the task,
you become the snake. And then instead of having like
a voting off ceremony at the end of the show,
they haven't. They call a saving ceremony. So the person
who's the snake gets to save one person. That sets
up a chain the actually nice saving another person, niceave

(03:01):
another person. So there's no backstabbing. It's all front stabbing.
It's like you say to someone, I'm gonna save you,
and then you save another person and you see that
actual what the fuck look on someone's face, like you
get to see the broken heart and real time. It's brilliant.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
It would be so bad at this game because we
watched two, we didn't see the third.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
The third one just came out.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
One comes out tonight tonight.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Okay, so we watched the two, but I really enjoyed
it because like Traders, you were persuaded by people to
vote a certain way, and this I.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Felt like, you don't know who the trade is.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
Big, big stuff going down. Episode three. This episode three,
it's old treachery the whole time.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Let me tell you. When they had to drink those drinks, yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
I was vomited. I had to.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
Turn take the medallion. I don't want it to count
me out elimination before I even started.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
I can tell because when this comes out, people might
have seen the third one or whatever. But the next
one is people solving jigsaw puzzles with thousands of carcos
on their face with the hole just kind of thing
they have to yell to the other person, like one
person has the key and one person has to solve,
and they've just got cockroaches, so you have to yell out.
So this cockroache is calling over you with your mouth open.

(04:13):
And people got very upset with that one. But it's like, look,
I tell you what, man, It's like, it's like when
you show up to get a job in your game show.
Ho She like, what am I doing today? I'm pouring
I'm pouring cockroachors on a priest. I mean, I thought.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
He was going to be me too. I watching two,
I was like, will he get through?

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, we didn't think he was going to get Then
something happens in the next one. I can't like.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
I mean, I'm excited to watch three.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
I'm feeling like the Colt's cheerleader because she's very under
the radar, right, she's not a threat to anybody. And
then who's the one? What's the girl's name? She has
it down to a science right now, Catherine.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Keep watching Catherine as the ways go by, because Catherine's.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
That they get you, I truly want She's gonna need
the money. She's being fired from her job one hundred percent, don't.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
I don't know what she quite, she said. I talked
to her done I do on my podcast. She says
she writes erotic novels. That's what she wants to be.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
That trucks because she looks you dead in your eyes
with those blue eyes, and she's like, I'll give you
the medallion. I have it. However, can I tell you
the one thing that I the guy the robber.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, Brian talks about.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
He's like bragging how he only got one counts of
the twenty two.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
He was like, but they couldn't get me on the
other twenty.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
He's now like in the episode three, he's sitting there
with the detective going biggest one. I got away with
half a million dollar robbery. He used to rob with
his father and his brother, right, so they used to
be like a fan. His brother would stank God and
him and the dad would go through and they'd go
get stuff done. But like Catherine Man, Catherine is playing
Brian in this. She said to Brian at once she goes,

(06:01):
she goes, if my dad Adver dies, I'll have you
walked me down the aisle. What do you mean you
just met him a week ago?

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I know, but she's so believable. She's so believable.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Have you ever met anyone called Katherine before? Though with
an I haven't. I've met Kathy's. I've never met a
Kathy and I've never met a Keith. You see the
TV show in Australia Katheryn Kimy and it wasn't called
Kith and kim Like, you know, the best way to
say Katherine is to say Katherine. But as in New Zealand,

(06:31):
though all right, they're actually.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
It is. The moment I saw that name, I was like, oh,
she's trouble.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
I stuffed it up a couple of times, but yeah, no,
she's Look, it is a game at the end of
the day. It's not like TV shows you've been on,
where it is actually reality and people have to actually
get along with people, and there's something if you did
something underhanded to a person, that's real life right to
a degree. This one here. If you're doing something underhanded,
you have the guys of, ah, it's a game, But.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Do you think that when people go the fact that
you're capable of that. I don't care if it's a
game like I would have a very hard time. Some
people may disagree going in and creating like these these
ginormous lives. With the cop she's talking about, you know
my dad was a cop, or the detective, he was

(07:23):
a cop. Then with she's like, I come from a
family full of criminals.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Come from a family of felons.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Family, the city a highlight.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
This guy, what are you throwing me under the fus.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
We had one cousin who went to prison for a
stink for like two months, just unpaid parking tickets.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
No violent crimes here, but I'm wondering can that guy
go to jail? Still he talks about how his brother
was holding the gun.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Look, I've said a lot of things that I've done
on stage, taking drags, et cetera, et cetera. It's still
you can. You can hide behind it being a performance
and by the way, I haven't. You can hide behind
it being a performance piece, right, you can.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
It's a game show where you lie.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
It's a game show. It's night, it's not a court
of law. So so, but Brian did all those things.
Every time I saw Brian, I had the same watch
on the whole time. And Brian's like, hey, hey, he's
trying to shake my hand. He's trying to nick my watch.
Like it's a bit you know what I mean? Like
you guys, I reckon, I can steal your watch and
you don't even know it. I'm like, that's great, Brian.

(08:36):
So I just stopped touching Brian.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
Has Brian started touching you?

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Brian. Brian's going to be on my podcast. I'm recording
one this afternoon, so I will see how Brian's doing.
He's a fun lads.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
He's going to shaw himself into prison.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
I know you know what I did wrong as a host,
and my wife actually thinks it's quite ming. Is you
can very clearly tell that I have favorites. Now a
game show, I shouldn't have favorites so hard.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
That's so hard to could.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Treat them all equally. But like when Jack won eating
those rantid eggs, I was like, goat some Jack.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
I don't know how you like keep yourself from not
having favorites.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Well, okay, I had some who were my favorites. And
now because I only I'm only there for the challenge
and the saving ceremony, I'm not there all during the day.
So in this last this last saving ceremony goes like this,
they start attacking each other. On episode three, they start
really going into each other and I was all shocked.
You can see I'm standing there like this, Why isn't

(09:47):
everyone getting along like that? And now I look back
and it's like, because Catherine keeps.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Love Oh my God, I can't wait. I'm going home
and watch you.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
Yeah so so yeah, so they all sort of get this.
Certain players that sort of try to play the game
with muscle Ah Brett the boxer or Derek the detective.
You know, those guys try to win through winning tasks
and actually and then there's other people who try to
actually play the game type of thing. But look, look,
we all know the priest got through by the skin

(10:17):
of his teeth or the pasta. He's not a priest
of the pastor the skin of his teeth. Pastor Jacob,
who's actually a really sweet guy. Now, I'm an atheist, right,
and I always find that I think I find I
find the dog. Thank god, you're an atheist. You are funny.
I'm looking forward to your Netflix special. So I'm always

(10:38):
had an aversion to the dog clouds type of thing.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
But he was he was.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Kind of a sweet guy, and so afterwards he has
he's got his handles, I think the inclusive pasta and
he was like I was on the plane going back
with him when we were leaving Argentina and he had
like he had like trans rides this rides that like
he's very like on his t shirt. So anyway, I

(11:03):
said to him, I said, hey, look man, you know
I said, look, I'm an atheist. And he goes, well,
we have plenty of atheists in our in my parish.
I'm like, why would they? He goes, it's all about
inclusion and everyone getting along and all the type of stuff.
And I said, ah, well, you know, well, if I'm
ever in town, I'll pop on in. And then he goes,

(11:24):
We're in Orange County, and I'm.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Like, fuck, I'm too far.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
I always hoping he was going to go Oklahoma and
be like, ah, well, very rare. I'm in Oklahoma, but
I could definitely get the path to Jacobs Parish and
join in.

Speaker 3 (11:37):
But all the time of day, in less than an hour, yeah, exactly,
like in.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
This traffic, come on, now, come on. And also, I've
always seen one of the privileges, like of being an atheist,
one of the big privileges is and it's not for
everyone right now. The people think people think you're going
to burn in hell, like people think you're.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
That's like a Bible bumper.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
Well that's a bump. But yeah, yes, maybe burn in
hell if there's a help, which there is, but if
there is, if there is a hit I'm going to
burn in hell, so let me have my Sundays off.
I deserve the weekend if I'm going to burn for eternity.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
You know what, though, I understand I'm not an atheist.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
Ah, which one are you into? Well?

Speaker 3 (12:18):
I was raised spiritual because my mom was raised super
Christian Bible bumpery, and then my dad was raised Mormon.

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Okay, so that's a great name for a gay strip
club in Utah. More men, More like, I just I
don't want to do it. I don't want to make it.
But if if anyone in Utah is listening for a
for a game mate or even like not even a
gay strip club like one of those thunder from now
Under review shows, totally, that's actually a great are Utah

(12:47):
thunder from now on strip t show? Moremon?

Speaker 3 (12:52):
If I do it, are you going to come for
a cut or can I just take it all to myself?

Speaker 1 (12:57):
No? But you let me. I get to eat for free.
I don't know what the food is like.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Can I tell you about it?

Speaker 1 (13:03):
I can't imagine strip club food's never been at ast
but I can't imagine male.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
A little strip club steak.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Never kids of that whipped cream with the spray you
reckon they got backstage. You'd have that on everything at
a male strip more.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
In Utah strip clubs you have to cover vagina and
you have to wear pasties.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
So it's not a strip club, is it.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
It's not worth going technically, No, you have to wear underwear.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
The strip cub modies will be called your wife, your wife,
come over here and enjoy your wife. Come on, strip club.

Speaker 3 (13:35):
I used to go to the strip club like literally
every night to see my friend at Trails.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
Okay, and you have a strip club called Trails. Trails
just from girls who didn't clan themselves properly and drag
themselves across the stage, we would Trails Trails.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
We also had American Bush.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
It's a good one, but too political. I had to
take it down. The Democrats didn't want to go in there.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
That was fine. That was like past the airport, Oh, the.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
One that's worth it.

Speaker 1 (14:09):
Look, if I'm out that way, I'm already there. I
wouldn't make the trip. But if I've gone out there
to buy a dog, might stop off at American.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
We only got to seven to eleven in that area.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
But then you like, because that may give you buy
a dog, go to American Bush, go into the Strip club.
You won't be in there for too long because someone
complained about the dog being in the car. You only
spend fifteen minutes saving yourself money. You'll be on your
way home. Don't eat the food. My wife's looking at
me like, who is this man? I'm just saying, why

(14:43):
would I be out past the airport?

Speaker 3 (14:45):
That's usually where the shelters are.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, whenever you go to buy an animal. When I
was a kid, there was always like I say so,
me and the wife. We lived in Cu City, and
then we still live in Cu City. And then there
was a the fires. Remember those fires made the news.
We made the news, and the fire happened, and then
we were in our house and there was a fire

(15:08):
near pins Bowling, which isn't far from it that someone
actually just set off. We thought the valley's next, you know,
the palisades were done.

Speaker 3 (15:14):
We thought the valet was next totally.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
And so so we we have three cats, but only
one cage. Because you never take them all to the vedic.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Once, No, never, you never all once.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
You only need the one cage. We couldn't get one
of them into the one cage. So we just went
fuck it. We threw them all in. Now. I don't
know what people feel about Eli, Musk and Tesla's these days,
but thank god for hands free driving. When you got
three terrified cats jumping around, that's the that's where it's meant.
It's built for.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
That was built for that.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
That it's going to pull like a way most situation
and just like go in circles and then you're really screwed.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
I've never used way yet.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
Well, I don't trust anything that's like, I don't trust humans,
but I can trust like electronics wheelers.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
I just thought that's good. I can remember cash cab
where you're getting the car and now they're on a
game show host because I always thought I'm not good
at reading and I'm not great at driving, but I'm
average it either. Okay, you can do cash cab, but
throw me in a way mo, I'll do that. There
you go. Oh you just don't even use me. Just
have a robot voice. Just have people trapped in you're

(16:17):
in cash cab.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
No, but that's genius. You would save so much money
producing that show. Yeah, yeah, you don't have to pay
a talent fear for the host yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
And if you get the answers right, you get to
your destination. If you get the answers wrong, you go
to your mother in law's house or something I don't know,
somewhere you don't want to go. You go to American Bush.
Everyone ends up in American Bush.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
If you get the questions for the trail that snails
at trails.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
That's what I would say to my wife. I got
caught in the American Bush. I got into a way
mo cash cab. Who would make that story up?

Speaker 3 (16:56):
No?

Speaker 1 (16:56):
I I got all the answers wrong. None of them
were about this. I didn't know anything.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
Hold on, how does that work with stand up? When
your wife becomes part of the bed, does she freak?
Do you run it past her? Or is it like surprise?

Speaker 1 (17:14):
No? Because before her, my comedy would be more about
girlfriends or one night stands, or taking drugs or whatever.
And now I'm older and I don't do those things,
and I'm happily married and we've got kids, And I mean,
so where does the comedy come from. I'm not putting
myself in dangerous positions where I can get funny stories.

(17:36):
We have to rip into this one. That's the only
way we can do it. In my new special coming
out August on Netflix, which hasn't been officially ann ouncet,
but I do call her a racist homophobe, and I say,
if people drive past her in the street to yell
it out from the car and.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
Oh, wow, your wife is a.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
He's so homophobic. I did. I tried to suck one
cock in front of her and she was offended. Terrible person.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
Okay, you run it back. See that's why you're a comedian.
Let me talk about this cancel culture.

Speaker 1 (18:13):
My wife is uncancellable. I'm telling you, she's too good
a person. That's why I push it onto her.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
If you can't cancel her, you can't cancel her.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
You know when she's you know, when you've got too
many speeding tickets and then a camera catches you and
then you go to your like your spouse or a
brother or something, and you go, you're gonna have to
take these points for me. This is what she's doing.
She's getting her cancel up. So my cancel level is
so high that I have to push all the bad
things I do unto her.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
So do you think there's a line in comedy, Then of.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Course there's a line in comedy, of course there's okay,
this is now there will be comedians and so no,
you should be able to joke about anything, and you
can if you're really good. And also people have got
to know that there isn't hate in you, okay if
they what you tell a joke as long as you
have a glint in your eye and you can sort

(19:04):
of okay, here's the easiest way to do. You can
joke about anything as long as you're completely comfortable about
joking about that thing whilst that subject's in the room, okay, right,
And if you can do it while that group of
people or that individual is in the room, then you

(19:24):
should be able to do it. And I've failed at
that plenty of times. But that's that's what you know.
There's jokes that I look back on where I go,
didn't land No, landed, but the person who was in
the room, and I wouldn't have had the balls to
say it if they were. I've recorded eleven hours of
stand up, right, So out of the eleven hours, there's

(19:46):
fifteen minutes where I go, Yeah, I should have done
things a bit differently there, you know what I mean.
But that's but look in anyone's career.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
But yeah, you have to say it to understand that
you went past the line.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Well, but I don't like hurting. Innocence is the thing.
The thing. But like we know, as you more so
than me, as people who are in the public eye,
that you just put up with people saying shit about you.

Speaker 3 (20:15):
That's all you do, right, Yeah, I mean there are
moments where you cannot win, and then there are moments
where you say, you know what, I'm going to take
the l on this. And although I don't regret the
entirety of what I said, there are pieces of it
that could have been taken out, could have been said differently.
And that's why I wonder at times if comedians draw

(20:38):
the line for themselves, or if the public comes into
play and you say, I have to remember that there
are people who could be directly affected by what I say.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
For the most part, people who come and see comedy,
my show is horrible. If you don't know I'm joking, right,
not comedy, you come along and watch my stand up
and go you can't believe it. I've always hated when
someone reviews your show and then they do a transcript
of what you said.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
Well, it always translates differently reads bad.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, it's a bad read. Yeah, if you don't have
the Australian accent and a little bit of a.

Speaker 4 (21:20):
Right, well, yeah, there's emotion behind your joke is too
that you're not gonna see in a read. Infliction the
voice of everything.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
And there are times where I'll do, like something as
simple as an Instagram story and I'll say fuck like
seventeen times. If I do just like a black screen
and write I do like a little asterisk or an
emoji where the you is, I'm like, because when you
see the word fuck, it just that's funny becomes more.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Because I'm in the process of doing my biography at
the moment, I have a writer working with me. It's
literally become like therapy. I lay on the couch and
I chucked the four and then I and then I
start talking about me life and I'm going all the
way through my children and my childhood and stuff like that.
And I was talking about me mum, and then I
was reading it back because then after he writes it,

(22:08):
I read it back and I edit and make it
sure it sounds right my voice. But he does it
as I've been saying it and it's just like this,
And then my fucking mum came over and she was
fucking pissed off with me for some fucking reason, now
me saying it, But then you read. And then my
fucking mother came over and she was fucking upset about

(22:30):
fucking and I was like, take all the fuckings out,
take all the fuckings out right, I'll do them in
the audio book.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Yes, we're going to be following along week. Something's different
here the.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Audio version that one follows on. If you're listening to
the audio version, you like me, you've read about two
books in your life. Like my wife always comes to
me and goes, have you ever read the book? I go,
is it Chris Farley or Chevy Chase's biography? Because if
it's not, then I haven't read it cently.

Speaker 3 (23:00):
Only read two books, and.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
It was the Chris Farley Show, which was with him,
was his passages from like David Spade and Chris Rock
and a Thur stuff, Wrinning Man. And I read the
biography of Chevy Chase and that's and part from that.
I listened to all your books. I watched a lot
of documentaries. But anyway, so my for my audiobook I
hate reading and I hate reading it loud. I'm really dyslexic,
and I it's my biggest fear in school right. And

(23:27):
when they were reading around the class and they do
paragraph paragraphgraph.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
When that ship would happen, I would count out the
kids and then read my paragraph. So I kind of
like just had to memorized. And when I read, I
don't retain ship because I'm like.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
Doesn't come in. I can read, but it doesn't come in.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
That must be like people, do you have.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
They said I did, but I don't know. I've got dyslexia,
and they say.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
I'm mildly on the creative mind.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
We've all got Look. Look look I had the park
in a regular spot. Okay, That's where I'm at life.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
I like that. By the way, though, school is now
my AA meeting where I go to this meeting and
they have you read the book.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
I'm like, you have to read it for the kids.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
We have to read it in the in the meeting
with other alcoholics.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
Oh yes, sEH, I've done that. Yes, that's a lot
of fun.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
And people are like, you have to read, you have
to be of service. I'm like, in another way, this.

Speaker 2 (24:32):
Seventh tradition they always give me that one.

Speaker 1 (24:34):
AA wasn't for me, I understand, it's for a lot
of other people. I don't like to think about alcohol,
and now that I've left it behind me, I don't
want to revisit it. But I mindful, but I know
it works for different people.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
There's no judgment here.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
By the yeah, I found going to that actually made
me depressed all the time because I kept on. But
for other people they like And also I went to
AA with a group of famous comedians. Oh right, fuck
if those kinds don't enjoy sharing. These meetings were going
for three hours. There was people there who were like,

(25:11):
I haven't had a drink in twenty five years. And
I walked past the bar the other day and I
thought to myself, should I? But then I resisted, and
I'm like, dude, I want to hear about the guy
who hasn't had a drink in twenty four hours. You
want a new comer, I need your twenty four years man.

(25:31):
The longer the sob by the short of the chat.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
I know is a three minutes you get one.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
It's a meeting you guys put together. So there's no cap.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Like literally, oh that would be my help.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
No, it's like this.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Should be an they should be an egg, like suarian.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
What is a normal meeting.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
That's a normal meeting talking.

Speaker 3 (25:52):
The timer will go off and so I'm like, all right,
next share, it's like, oh, I feel so bad, like
you're getting cut off.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
Like they'll hear it and they'll go and I'll just
end with this thank you.

Speaker 3 (26:02):
It's a lot. So do you consider yourself sober?

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Well? I am in marijuana, okay, I like edibles.

Speaker 3 (26:11):
Okay, you're an edible.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
I call myself high and dry. A lot of people
called California sayer high.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
And dry, so much better, like high and dry, way
better because that's actually representation of what it is.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
And a lot of people have told me that I've
left them that as well, so.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
You know it's not no, but that should be the
new name of it, because saying California is sober sober,
you're not sober sober means that you don't participate in
any substance that's going to take you out of your reality.
So high and dry is ingenius and r.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
Are you edible during the day kind of guy or
just a nighttime?

Speaker 1 (26:45):
I'm an evening okay, okay with my family. I'm a
sort of evening to bed.

Speaker 3 (26:51):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
But if you if you see me on any delta fly,
I'm off my tits. I'm high. I'm high before I
got on the plane you're flying. If I'm in an airplane,
I'm just watching the same episode of the Office over
and over again.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
You took off before you took off.

Speaker 3 (27:17):
Is this because you have a fear of flying or
you're like, I just can't deal.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
No, I just fly all the time. I just try
to make it more enjoyable for myself and so so
I get high on flights. Although it depends what country
you're going to, you know, But I said the flights domestic, domestic,
and only out of l A, not the other way.
Don't even check.

Speaker 3 (27:42):
Someone's talking to you.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
I got to know my sering. You know, not how
to be hot flights.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
I've checked four flights.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
I've checked four flights. You cannot be high on any
of them.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
I don't take any other drugs, no nothing else, no
no alcohol, no nothing in weeds. Just my thing.

Speaker 3 (28:00):
Did you like drugs back in the day?

Speaker 1 (28:02):
I did. I quit them before I quit alcohol, and
then I quit cigarettes after.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Do you vab.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
I do not. I vaped after cigarettes, but I don't anything.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Now, Wow, how did you kick the VP?

Speaker 1 (28:15):
I was in Europe and doing a tour and I
can't remember what country I was in. I want to
say Austria for some reason. But I was in Europe,
a different country each a couple of days, you know,
doing shows. And that was how I was still getting
nicotine because I hadn't smoked in the whole time. I
didn't want to go back to cigarettes. And then I moved.
I was in a country that had no nicotine vapes.

(28:37):
They only just had favored vapes, but they were the
same brand as the ones that I was buying across Europe. Okay,
so I bought like five vape free nicotine free ones
and I had one nicotine one in the mix and
I mixed them up and then I kept on doing this,
and then I thought, I have to be out of

(28:57):
nicotine now, right. Nicotine has to have left my system
because I've been doing this now for four weeks. I've
been smoking the nickedteine free vaps and so I was
just addicted to that then and then I ended. And
the biggest secret I will give to anyone whoever wants
to give up cigarettes or vaping or anything like that
is and this is from the Alan Carr book How

(29:18):
to Stop Smoking. This is quite a famous book. You
have to stop looking at other people smoking and vaping
with envy, right, okay, because that's what I did every time.
I used to quit for three months and then see
someone smoking and someone to go, I'm going up a
cigarette you want because there's always people. You can never

(29:38):
get a free cigarette of someone when you're a smoker,
when you've given up, everyone's like sure, because they want
to bring your dawn. They do. They want, whether it's
subconscious or whatever, they feel bad about themselves and smoking,
so they want more people into the pack. So they
try to drag you down. And so I always used
to see people and then eventually they go, why don't
you buy your own pack? After your above like five

(29:59):
of the things, right? And then and then you're back
in right right. So I used to look at people
who were smoking. I wish I could, And now I
look at them like they're slaves, Like they're still a
slave to nicotine. I pity people who smoke. If I
see someone standing outside like a Now, the funny thing

(30:20):
is I had to make a couple of cigarettes in school,
and I thought that my smoking kicked off when I
was living in England when they banned smoking indoors. Right now,
I was smoking a little bit, but okay, so then
you would have to move outside. Now I think that
it's always raining. They give you a little awning, right,

(30:41):
a little roped off.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Bit just for you to go out.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
And pretty girls don't pay for cigarettes. Not they for
a lot of the time. Can I have a cigarette?
Of course? Can I have a light? Of course? Now
you're under a little awning with a girl. If I
go inside out of his ship, my personality can't coming
to play. They have there's an hilarious man in the

(31:05):
rain smoking.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
Right, Yeah, it's like a movie love story.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
I never would have had sex without smoking. No, No,
you wouldn't always remember. I'd hate to kiss someone you know,
would be looking out an ASTRAI I wouldn't kiss someone
who had a cigarette.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
They did, They did because they asked me for a cigarette. No,
it's an epic conversation.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Starter epic conversations.

Speaker 4 (31:28):
The hard thing with the babe is that you know whatever,
And I never want anybody to.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
And so I could keep them on the vape. I
used to paint a cold store on that's brilliant.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
I was like, really, what.

Speaker 1 (31:42):
A great No one want to hit anything that I
only landed with my wife. You just stay.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
I was like, wait, hold on, this is a really
good idea. Want anybody there.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
When I moved to l A and I was a
heavy drinker as well, but I would buy swish or sweets,
not roll a spliff, smoke them the way they were,
and they don't have like right, but they are only
like most people.

Speaker 4 (32:08):
It's a swish or sweet tobacco. They got grape flavor.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
All of the people buy them, and then you like
backwoods pretty much cut it open and you roll a
blunt like a spliff, right, little tobacco, little weed. I
would just smoke them as they were and walk around
I'm sure with like tobacco stuck in my teeth. It
was not good.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
A lot of people that rallies in Britain. I always
liked the people who did rallies because it felt like
their cigarette. And they always say, anyone who's doing this
anybody guys? Yeah, For some reason I take their advice
because I can't do what the problem with you is

(32:51):
you're just not giving yourself enough time to think. Maybe
I'm not. I don't know why. I think this person's
a siaged wise because you can roll a cigarette.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
I would listen to Wis Kalifa any day of the
week his advice.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yes, I was taking because he was always giving it
to me.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
Doing that, Yeah, totally. And there's something about like, I'm
sure you have mad wisdom when you're on your edibles
on a delta flight, like you've solved all the world's
all right.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
See this is this is the plight of the good
looking female. Right, Okay, okay, you think other people are
talking on planes. No, No, the rest of us are
just sitting down. When you get on a plane, the
person next to you asked how you die?

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Is, oh, my flight's ruined.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
No one's ever asked me anything. I've never do you
when you.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Plan, no, I don't talk to anybody.

Speaker 4 (33:47):
And when that person is like god, if this is
the flight, I will put air pods in and not
play music.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
Just because I'm like hopefully they think.

Speaker 1 (33:56):
No one's trying to talk to you.

Speaker 4 (33:59):
But when i'm I become a talker and the women
love to chat on a part.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
Talk to you s No, I'm talking about functional members
of society. No one talks important people who we don't
have to get rid.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Of the amount of friends my sixty four year old
mother has met on a plane. I met the nicest
man on the plane. I'm like, who who the talk?

Speaker 4 (34:24):
A plane is the quiet game until we touch down.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
No one say a fucking word.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
I'm pissed off because now I have my virgo starts
going insane of I've got to remove the overhead.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Is that stat sign or like you mean, like vertigo virgo?

Speaker 3 (34:42):
What's your star sign?

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Uh? Aquarius?

Speaker 3 (34:47):
My day. We don't believe in God, so why would
you believe in the stars that he created?

Speaker 1 (34:54):
I believe in the God from the other solid system
that created it, not what Hey, I don't I don't
believe there's I don't believe that there's there's trillions of stars.
There's more stars than in a beach of sand, is
grains of sand or whatever. There's more. There's more solar
systems than that, and that God created all of those
and he found the time to as a tourist visitors

(35:17):
two thousand years ago. Is he just doing a lap
around the universe? Was the next one I'm off to Mars.
Is it the same bloke, or is Jesus going everywhere?
I know he visited Utah?

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Or if I were a Mormon, I guess I would
tell you to put your questions on the shelf and.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
I'd get back to stripping, come back to trail, get
back to go back to more men, and get on it.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
Were you raised religious?

Speaker 1 (35:45):
My mother what said she was religious, but we didn't
go to church. My father's an atheist, but I never
really asked my dad about it until until ten years ago.
I never thought to ask him because he never talked
about it. My grandfather was religious. My mother liked to
have a guys of We watched a lot of Cecil
b de Mill movies.

Speaker 3 (36:06):
What is that?

Speaker 1 (36:07):
They're the old Biblical the Ten Commandments with ben hur
the Ten Commandments with the Charlton Heston type of things.
Those type of movies. We used to rock out. So
that was my religious upbringing, was watching it. And I
used to watch those those plaster scene Christmas movies like
the Drama Boy. Oh yeah, I knew what was going

(36:29):
on there. I've seen the Life of Brian. I know
all about the life of You've never seen the Life

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Okay, I'm gonna I'm going to get the Life of
Brian is. Whenever in the UK they did the top
one hundred comedies of all time, it always comes number one.
It's Monty Python's finest work. Okay, and it is work.
It is worth sitting down and watching.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
All right, done.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
I think it's on Netflix. I think, like last time
I watched it on Netflix, but it would be very
easy to fine. It's a hugely famoused. Now my wife's
noting on because I just made her and my twelve
year old watch it, okay, and they both liked it
so good. Yes, So I put off watching it my
whole like childhood in England because I've had no interest,

two ago.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
Incredible, Okay, Okay, we have to watch what I'm watching tonight.

Speaker 1 (37:24):
It's the basic story is it's a bloke whose life
runs parallel to Jesus right in the same era at
the same time, and we could have all worshiped him whatever. Yeah,
but it's it's it's you know, Eric God or John Clees,
not Pale.

Speaker 2 (37:40):

I hear this. Let me tell you. On school nights,
we have a routine. When it's not school, I'm teaching her.
You don't have school, you can watch a show, you
can play in your playroom, and I just let her
kind of be the one that's like, I feel tired.
I want to go to bed now. A lot of
people are gonna be like, you need routine.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
We do.

Speaker 3 (38:51):
We got routine. But when you have an infant who
goes to bed at five and sleeps until she rocks
it until seven am, it gives me a lot of
time to watch all the shows that you recommend. Yeah,
so I will be watching The Snake, I will be
watching Life of Brian.

no teleprompts in the Argentinian jungle, right, Yeah, so you
walk out that you're standing in a field, there's all
these crates around you. Welcome to the snake. This is
the And then like you know, to begin with as well,
when you turn to someone you have to go so
and then you hear Derek Derek like as you get it,

(41:22):
as you go along, you get to know him a
lot better and all that type of stuff. Right, But
also for there's certain things like in saving ceremonies, there's
there's something that comes up now where I ask a
question to someone, just something basic, like you seem alarmed
by the whole thing? Do you feel portrayed or something
like that. Well, I don't know. I haven't been in

podcast as well.

Good. I hope she does. I feel like honored if
she listens to this. Yeah, give her a wave on YouTube.
That's Jersey Shore was like before you even realized how
like you didn't. You couldn't produce a scene because these
people were so authentically chaotic that you had to just
you had to put cameras in every room to catch

(42:37):
every it was. The casting was fantastic off the hook,
and you just like when they're out at these bars,
they were like feral cats. You can produce a fucking
scene like where I come from. It's like, hey, we're
gonna get you and Brittany to sit right here, and
they like roped it off. It's it's like a whole thing, right.

(42:58):

one of the few international comics and when we say
international comics that I could play Australia, UK and America.
And that's because I put the time into all three
of those continents, okay, And I put the time, and
I kept on going back and doing gigs and doing

(44:27):
gigs and doing gigs. But if you had an HBO special,
it was still only watched in America, and then they
might sell it on to another country or whatever. You
have a Netflix special, bang especially so now I too.
I just did Japan. I've got you know, I've got gigs.

Speaker 3 (44:42):
In I watch hacks. Yeah, I don't know if you
watch hack.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
I don't like watching people acting stand up. I heard
it's very good.

Speaker 3 (44:50):
It's very that would I understand why that would be hard.
But she goes to the Philippines or something. I'm blinking,
and she's delivering her stand up. But there's a and
I'm blinking on what that's called translator? A translator? How
what is that like? When you perform in a place

(45:11):
where you don't speak their language.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Well, because they've come to see you, they've seen you
on Netflix. These are the people who.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
Do speak Okay, so you can't actually cut that out.

Speaker 1 (45:22):
Well, I speak multiple languages.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
Because he reads a lot of books. Subtitle I've got
a show.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
I've got a charity gig coming. Tell me you think
this is funny because I've got a charity gig coming up.
Will Smith from the Dodgers has a charity thing where
he has stand up and I'm doing the gig, right,
so the Dodgers, yeah, we love it. So the Dodgers
are going to be there, right, And they said it
last year's show, Mookie Bets, Freddie Freeman, all these different people,
all that, and then I was like, you want to

(45:54):
meet show how your Tarny of course and Yamamoto. But
it turns out they're stuck up and I don't want
to go to English speaking comedy because they're full of
themselves right now because the course they don't speak English
good enough. So this I'm thinking of opening the show.
I'm going to ruin my opening now. In the week
coming up to the show, I'm going to learn a

(46:16):
joke in Japanese already SOLDI, and then I'm going to
get up and go hit it. I can't do that, right,
but that's that's the gist of Japanese. That was a
Japanese that my wife's shaking her head, very racist because
she enjoyed it anyway, So I'll go do it. And

(46:36):
then I go, that was a waste of a fucking time.
I didn't show up fucking where's Yamamoto when your fucking needing?
Because many many years ago, many years ago, I had
a corporate I did a Christmas function. I was living
in Manchester, England this twenty years ago and I did
a corporate function for Manchester United at that stage, the largest,

(46:59):
the most pop of the sports team in the world, Manchester.
You know this has had Wayne Rooney, is the strike
of Rude van Nistelroy and all like real classic players.
And I got up and I was like, I finished
the gig. And my dad is never that excited by
different gigs do He's been seeing me do this since
I was seventeen. And I said, Dad, I'm going to
play Manchester United. My father's a big football fan and

(47:21):
my dad's never run. It brings me up all the
time now because my mother's dead, right But like before
my mother died, he never rang me up. The phone
would get pasted to him. I'd speak to For the
last ten years of my mother's life, I didn't know
my dad could talk. Every time, every time my father
went to talk, my mother would go, shut up, Gary,
you're an idiot. I used to defend him and go

(47:41):
let him talk. What do you talk to him like that.
Why would you get into him? Anyway? My mom was
dead for about three days before me and my brother's
got together and went mum was doing some good work
because my dad's opinions of what my son calls windows
up opinions anyway, So what was I talking about doing?
Manchester United? Him? Right? So I was doing Manchester United?

Speaker 3 (48:05):
And I.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
Went on stage and half the team just fucking was
ignoring me, just like like I had a few of
the lads laughing, and half the team. I couldn't get
anything out of him. And then I went and sat
out afterwards and they fed me a meal in like
the little alleyway thing like I wasn't to eat with
the rest of the people sitting like on a milk

(48:29):
crate a meal, and my dad wrings me up and
he goes, how was it? And I went it was
all right, I said. Rooney thought I was funny, and
Gigs thought I was all right. But Louis Vasa and
this door now, and then he goes, they don't speak English,
and I was like, oh, they're all friendship people and

(48:52):
all type of stuff. There was a language barrier they
weren't getting through.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
Help a light of them. That's to sit there looking back.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
Wow, it's all right. You don't speak fucking English, but
don't throw tomatoes. Don't be a cun about it right before.

Speaker 3 (49:07):
I really, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (49:09):
I can't say the sword on your podcast?

Speaker 3 (49:11):
Can I see your next Tuesday word?

Speaker 2 (49:12):
I love that word, We love that word.

Speaker 1 (49:14):
Oh, but your audience might be.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Some days they wake I'm really excited, and some days
they wake up not that excited. But that's okay, that's life. No,
I'm fine with it.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
I don't say it on the Snake.

Speaker 2 (49:29):
That's why I was watching.

Speaker 1 (49:30):
If you're watching this podcast and you find me annoying,
don't worry. I'm hardly in the show. You can enjoy
it without me. I'm just passing through the show. They
didn't even put me on the billboard. They put it
I got all your shows on a Times Square. Fucking brilliant.

(49:51):
There's a picture of a priest, and only just the
two of them that it was the priest, the only
fans of one of the cop and I think the
Vonte is.

Speaker 3 (50:00):
Yeah. A lot of a lot of people to fit
onto one space.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
Yeah, not all the contestants got on either.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
When you could have just put Jim Jefferies.

Speaker 1 (50:07):
Yeah, but I could. I should have just like they
should have been the center and then just be in
the corner.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
Yeah, holding a snake.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Oh, this is the thing. I kept on asking to
hold a snake. I got all Steve Irwin on this bitch, right.
I showed up. I showed up to the show like
this game, give me a snake. I wanted to open
like I wanted to be.

Speaker 3 (50:24):
They should have given you like a Britney Spears moment.

Speaker 1 (50:26):
I wanted to be welcome to the snake and holding
up a snake and then and then they were like, oh,
but then people will know that the snakes aren't scary
and that because there's the snake tasks where they have
to touch him and stuff and where I.

Speaker 3 (50:38):
Thought I stays are terrifying. And I mean it doesn't
even matter if because at the end of the day,
you know who has the medallion. Besides, when it's being
swapped in the boxes, right then you want to be
like you want to be on your game. You would
know immediately if I touched a snake.

Speaker 1 (50:52):
Well, that's why the first episode isn't as fun as
the other ones, because they're not doing anything great, they're
just touching snakes, but they're sort of just feeling each
other out and they wanted to separate the group pops.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
And I kind of loved that part. Yeah, the beginning
of a show, like the setup. It just it's like
the first drink where you start feeling a little warm.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Well, the next few episodes, this new one, they start
yelling at each other. They're like, I.

Speaker 3 (51:15):
Got the competition aspect, we need the reality team.

Speaker 1 (51:18):
Yeah no, no, no, that's that's kicking in. But I
believe I don't approve of this, but I think I'm
the first Australian game show, a reality show hosting in America, right,
And I think it's only because of they like the
accent with the word welcome to the snake.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
The snake for the moment you walked in, I said, crikey,
I tell.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
You what I say. My wife can attest to this.
I say crikey. In the wild about four times a year.
It involves me stubbing a toe or seeing like a
really big frog or something.

Speaker 5 (51:54):
Big frogs when he travels very rarely, very really well,
I'm stubbing my toe once maybe once a year, I
see a massive frog that olds me going kroaky?

Speaker 3 (52:06):
What does mean?

Speaker 1 (52:07):
Crikey just means fuck me, like fuck me because fuck me.
It's the overtone of like can your bloody believe it? Can?

Speaker 3 (52:16):
I say it? Way more than when you.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
See something that's too big or like bigger than you
think or something like that, you go krikey.

Speaker 3 (52:24):
Oh I love it even more.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
Now.

Speaker 3 (52:25):
I have a friend who's married to an Australian man,
and every time he calls, I.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Think, is this is he from vand Pump is change? Yes, yes, yeah,
he knows me. One time I was at Lisa's house
and they rang up and he wanted to chat to
me for and then I when him at the dog charity.
What's his name again, Frocky brock brook Yeah, Brooks are right,
he's a good guy.

Speaker 3 (52:49):
Wait, I want you to tell me because that's our Like.

Speaker 1 (52:51):
I got trouble at this. I got trouble at Lisa
Vander Pump's dog Charity because the Mike Tyson Jake Paul
fight was on and they were all talking about rescuing dogs.

Speaker 6 (52:59):
Were that every everyone was on their someone was like,
like I was just gigging in Canada for Game seven
of the Stanley Cup and Edmondson's playing and it was
very and there was people like all in Edmonton Jerseys,
like you know Canadians, like it's very hard to tell
people to go, hey, don't get on your phone.

Speaker 1 (53:21):
And and so I just lied and said different scores
that didn't matter to upset them. Oh you're down five
runs me now what the fuck? Anyway? So yeah, so
we know Lisa's Lisa is my girl. Man. I love
Lisa connection so wide and Lisa have. We get a
kick out of each other. We do. We like each other.

(53:43):
We we I did a podcast and then I did
a TV show with the British got James James with
James and then and then after that she invited us
up to Villa Rosa and you look, you got to
see this one's and the and the ponies and sing
and then and then it was like come to my birthday.

(54:06):
But then we just organic. We became actual friends. We
call each other up and have chats and stuff.

Speaker 3 (54:12):
That so happy.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
She wouldn't as a friendship for sure.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
She's a nice lady. Man, She's a nice lady. And
she commands every space he's in and I admire I
like this whole idea of one time she just like
she was. She she was just what I try to
think of. One time she was getting like her wardrobe
redone right, and she said, and it was just me

(54:37):
over at the house and she goes, come up, I
want to show I want to show you the warro
Come up, Come on, And I was like this and
she goes move ken over to that room and there's
pink things like this, and it was so lost in me.
But I remember standing in her wardrobe going, how many
women on Earth would swap places with me right now
to be in Lisa vander pubs A lot.

Speaker 3 (54:58):
Of people a lot, because you've seen that space on television,
like when people would watch Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The first time that I walked into it, I was
like this, you don't believe in heaven, but if it
does exist, I think it would be Lisa vander Pump's
bedroom and closet.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
Yeah yeah, you think you think you would just be
floating around with handbags all arounda.

Speaker 3 (55:22):
Oh, all the burkins all like her shirts that these
like simple button ups that all have her name, and
everything's perfectly pressed. And she SIPs tea on white carpet
and there's not a stain on it. It's all just
fucking and.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
She she puts the flowers in his And she's wonderful
with children, yep, because her grandson is the same age
as our son, a three year old, and so we've
been to these parties and stuff and she's just a
delight around kids. And it's it's like if you she
cooks for you and then she cleans up and then

(55:55):
she does it, and it's just like, is there anything
she doesn't No, she.

Speaker 3 (55:58):
Has zero help. By the way, she doesn't have any assistant.
She does all of her on floral arrangements, cooks, does
the whole bit. Just a massive empire.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
You know. Okay, So this with men, there is a
certain element of men will look up to older men
will go like, I'd love to beat Clint Eastwood. He's
a bad arts dude or whatever, or some old athlete
that you think, oh, I like that. But now now,
for I might be wrong, But for women not so much.

(56:29):
When they meet an older woman, they might admire the
old woman, they might think she's great, but no young
girl wants to be Meryl Streep or maybe if they're
an actress or something like that, Okay, Lisa vander Pump
is the only more mature person I've ever met. Where
young girls when they know that I know her, lose
their shit and they want like girls in their early

(56:51):
twenties are like, oh my god, you know she is
the queen. I want to be maybe another women in
their sixties that women lose their mind.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
I can't think of any Every time we would film
and Lisa would walk into the building, it was like
the Beatles just walked out exactly. It was insanity.

Speaker 1 (57:09):
I've dined with her in Pump okay, right, and then
she Tom Thom had just opened up like this, and
she was like she went to me and she goes,
she goes, she goes, oh, I have to show you Tom.
We have to look good, Tom. And she picks up
Jiggy and she and then she had diamonds hanging down

(57:29):
here in the cleavage out and you have to walk
like two doors up to get the pump. And we
walked and there was like I think there's like a
gay night. It was like a fish drink.

Speaker 2 (57:40):
They're dancing and stuff on poles.

Speaker 1 (57:42):
And fish taking gay guys that all rushed up to
the window and she walked by and she just strutted
down and they were, Oh my god, she's there.

Speaker 3 (57:53):
She's there like this, people go crazy for her. She's
she's an icon in so many ways, whether it's you're
an entrepreneur, she's a gay icon. Women who are my
age and younger are like, oh my god, I want
to achieve what this woman has.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
You want to know what she issue. Was an influencer
before they were influencer. Yeah, totally before the Internet everything.
And Ralph l Looren was a similar type of dude, right,
he was like a guy who just hanged out in
the Hamptons, look really good in clothes, and anyone like,
there's this style of this guy that keeps showing it.
You go to Lisa. The food's great, right, but you
go there to be Lisa. Yeah, she decorates herself. Oh yeah,

(58:30):
I think so.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
You're stepping into her other home.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
You're stepping into her world. That is the secret sauce.
The secret source.

Speaker 3 (58:38):
Is her every detail.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
You know, if you if you like, you know, her
fingerprints are all over it. Yeah. Yeah, she's wonderful person.

Speaker 3 (58:46):
Well, actually it makes me feel like it's wild that
like I could pick up the phone and call this
woman you just.

Speaker 1 (58:54):
Let's do it, miss call is it Lisa?

Speaker 2 (58:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (58:58):
From twelve to fifty two.

Speaker 3 (59:00):
Shut the front door. That's wild. It was meant to be.

Speaker 2 (59:04):
It was meant to be.

Speaker 1 (59:06):
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see. She's probably arranging flowers
as we speak. We'll leave, We'll leave it on because
she will, she will.

Speaker 3 (59:14):
Call back, she will call back. Oh my god, I'm
so excited about this. Okay, I'm keeping you on for
the bonus and I'm so excited for the bonus. But
before we do that, where can people watch the Snake?

Speaker 1 (59:26):

then I'll go like this Kraakey and I wear khakis
the whole time, and I just come out of the
bushes like this. There's a lot of snake as in there.

Speaker 3 (01:00:04):
I can tell that your wife has a really fun time.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
She laughs at me. We make each other.

Speaker 3 (01:00:11):
She and you get to admire how stunning she is.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Well, she's also very funny.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
I can tell her.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
She's she's got like my my sister in law, her sister.
That's how it works. So your sister in law, My
sister in law is a comedy right just coincidentally is
a comedy writer for the BBC right sitcoms and stuff
like that. So her family comes from a very comedy
based type of quick witting. Her parents funny people.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
I love that. I'm so happy that you came, by
the way, Tasy, Yes, so happy. All right, we're gonna
jump in.

Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
We'll be able to back out for lunch afterwards, and
then we'll just go home to your mom and go
out fucking La La cantor.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
Can I say that that My bio drag name is
La is Like, Yeah, isn't fabulous?

Speaker 1 (01:01:03):
When I wear glasses, I call myself Kent. I don't
know if it works.

Speaker 3 (01:01:08):
It depends on it. Yeah, Cunt.

Speaker 1 (01:01:14):
Doug was was late after all those years, But he
took him off and then went, ah, she dated the bloke,
met the two blokes, never even just went you look
like the same dude, just a slightly better posture. That
was all that Superman did. He was like a hunchback
and then just went feeling good.

Speaker 3 (01:01:37):
I can't believe Jim Jefferies, thank you for being on that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
I've had a wonderful time. Anytime you want me back.
I know this is mostly reality TV, but maybe you
know the second season of The Snake, we come back here,
we do it all again season finale The Snake, if
you I'll come back.

Speaker 3 (01:01:55):
I love it, and we mentioned it all here, not
just not just the reality TV. But you're in the
world now, I.

Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
Mean I'm in the world. I'm also I'm I'm part
of Bachelor Nation. I do a few Bachelor podcasts. We
just did Nick by ours as well.

Speaker 3 (01:02:12):
Really, my wife is a huge one. That's a huge
one because.

Speaker 1 (01:02:15):
Well we know Nick, but we watched that. We started
watching The Bachelor ironically, me and the wife during COVID.
This is what these fucking idiots get up to. And
then unless it's on at the same time as The Snake,
then it's a piece of ship. Don't watch it. I
don't even know what channel. I'm going to shut up.
I'm meant to be here representing Fox for Fox's sake.

(01:02:36):
Out of all the game show hosts on American TV,
I do say you cut the most on podcasts. You've
got to give credit where credits due, because when you
think of what the guy from the Bachelor was canceled for, right, yeah,
you've got to get ahead of it, you do. You've
got to get ahead of the cancelation. What you've got
to do is you've got to say so much that

(01:02:57):
when they go to cancel you, you go.

Speaker 3 (01:02:59):
For what what?

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
What? What?

Speaker 3 (01:03:01):
Bit was it?

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
I've said a lot of it.

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
You are fucking hysterical. Thank you guys for listening to
another episode of the givena Lalla Podcast. Jim Jeffries is
sticking around for the bonus. You can catch down on Monday.
We will catch you guys again next week. Bye.

Speaker 1 (01:03:21):
I'll tell you when I smell my best. When I'm
going through a duty free store, I always pick a
separate person that sitting next to me might enjoy this
or I hate it.

Speaker 3 (01:03:33):
You don't buy you just use this.

Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
I fly so much. I don't have to buy. I'm
a little plane. Every week, I just sample my way
through life.
