What's going on is Bill Burr, it's time for the Thursday afternoon just before Friday, Monday morning podcast and I'm just checking in, checking in, oh my god, I'm fighting off a god damn cold. Both my kids got sick. So you know you're getting sick. You know, you know, when your kids get sick, if as a parent, you don't know that you're going to get sick. If you actually think I'm even though my kids are sick, I'm not going to get sick. You know what that means? You're a bad parent. What are you fucking doing? Yeah, you're putting a mask on it, a beekeeper suit. You're not going to interact with them. You're not reading them stories. You're not reenacting fucking WrestleMania of whatever with your son. Whatever. Yeah, so I've been fighting it off, fighting it off, meaning it's coming. Sometimes I think it's better to just give into the cold, you know, and just let it do what it's going to do because I feel like when you fight off a cold, it just lasts longer. It's like we just get a cold. It's like four days and it sucks, or you fight off a cold and it's like an entire week of like, I think I'm winning. I'm losing how I'm winning. Now I'm losing. It's just like, why not just just tap out, just be like, when I just stick my head in a cold shower and go run down the street and just turn this into pneumonia and just fast forward through this shit. Not pneumonia. You don't want pneumonia. There you go. This one, there's some good information on you. Dude, what happened to the fucking Twitter guy? I don't watch the news. That guy is lost his fucking mind. That dude has lost his fucking mind. I also don't understand neo-Nazi people. I don't understand how they're in this country going, support the troops. America, love it or leave it and all of this type of shit. And it's like, you know, all those guys who died on D-Day, they were fighting Hitler. Like I've lived so long. Like, you know, everything just sort of changes after a while. It's like, wait a minute. If people trying to say he was a good guy now, the fucking level of ignorance out there. And what is that fucking Twitter guy? He literally sieged Kyle. He didn't just aisle. You know, you can accidentally pile. Hey, oh, something I didn't mean like that. I didn't mean like that. But when you add the seed, you meant it. Good Lord. It is just so funny to me how when I was growing up, all of these fucking women that hated men, they were always focusing on the athletes and they never paid attention to the nerds and now look at it. You know, you have paid attention to the wrong fucking people. You know, they just, I don't know what their deal was. They were upset because you were a good looking guy and you could fucking score a touchdown. These nerds just silently resenting beautiful women, resenting, you know, the fucking good looking guy, the burnt metals guy out there with the T tops crushing it, silently resenting. And now, now we are in the, the true revenge of the nerds era. And look at that guy. There's Turkish hair plugs in his laminated face and now he's out here siege highling. I mean, that guy is off his fucking rocker. I can't believe he's still in like whatever position he just got. Like how the fuck do you keep that guy in that position? Like, wait a minute. This guy is, is he ruining for the other side? He's on the axis side. All of these movies along the fucking way, the greatest generation D day, all of those lives that were sacrificed so that people could live free and this fucking nerd because he couldn't get any pussy in, in high school is now identifying with Hitler. Oh my God. This is where liberalism is bad because, and why extreme conservatism works over liberalism is because liberals at heart are non confrontational. And this is like some shit that needs to be stomped out immediately that people are going to like fucking try to lead us back in that direction. I mean, what are we doing? This is the United States were united, not divided. And like, are we really going to fuck this up? Because Elon Musk couldn't get any pussy in fucking high school. Like, like, we're really going to fuck this whole thing up. Fucking guy. I mean, I don't know. It's just, it's just boggles, boggles my fucking mind. I don't know. Well, we'll see. We'll see how that plays out. We'll see. We'll see how that play. Why would he be a Nazi? Like, what does he feel he's not getting as a white man? I mean, it's like you're a fucking billion. You got more money than anybody. You're still upset. Like, how do you have the bandwidth with the amount of fire, you're shooting rockets off and all of this stuff? You still have the bandwidth to fucking you to be like, not liking people because they don't look like you. Is that what it is? I mean, you'll be honest with you. Nobody looks like Elon Musk. That's what scare me about that guy. You know what I mean? Like, Hitler couldn't live up to his version of, of, of what the, the perfect, uh, human was what do you like blonde blue eyed and all of those fucking Scandinavian people? And like, he was this ugly little fucking troll. That was one ugly son of a bitch. I will tell you that, you know, scowling. He definitely came with the grunge vibe before grunge music. Hitler definitely had, had Seattle energy. He was not a sunset strip guy. T tops, doing some blow walking, flying, driving down the street with some big tidded fucking blonde. That was not his vibe. He was Hitler's chicks had hairy legs. That's, I'm going to say that's what it was. That's what he could get. Uh, he was a private. He was a private in the service. He was a private in the army. And, uh, I don't know. And we all paid the fucking price. And now here comes another one. It comes another one. Um, anyway, um, so I'm fighting off this fucking cold. And, uh, I'm getting ready to get out of here, head back and see what doing a play is going to be like. I'm getting excited about it. Um, my lovely wife threw me a surprise party last night. Um, and she invited fucking everybody. I couldn't believe the people that were there. Everyone from like my closest standup friends, musician friends, um, flight instructors. I mean, everybody will, I couldn't think of a part of my life. I was just like, how the fuck did you get all of these people here? And she was like, oh, he goes when you was sleeping for a few of them. I had to go into your phone and screen shot the phone number. I go, all right, kind of creepy. See, the second you're trying to surprise somebody on any level, like from like throwing a surprise party all the way to like, you know, invading a country or seek hiling at a presidential inauguration. You know what the greatest country in the freest country in the world needs fascism. Unreal, unfucking real. Um, anyway, so yeah, she invited all of these people and, and I was telling her that night I was going like, I'm going, yeah, I don't feel good. Like, can I just stay home? She goes, let's just go out for a little bit. And I'm just sitting there going like, why the fuck? Yeah, exactly. Nobody listens to me. No, he listens to me. And let's have a microphone and I'm fucking yelling into it. And even then I have to yell because if I, if I, I don't know, I probably don't. Um, and I just had like one of those fucking days, you know, those fucking dad days, husband days, you know, where it's just like, it's just, you keep doing shit for other people and everything you're asking to be done for you. Just can't seem to get done. I was going to do it. I just fuck. And then you have to do it yourself. Um, but what I've learned is I don't get into fights in those moments. I just say to myself, I'm going to talk to my, my, my, one of my buddies tonight, and I'll talk to him and I'll be heard. I'm not doing it this way. All right. I figured this out with like women. Okay. Trying to get a woman to think like you is not going to happen any more than them trying to get you to think like them. All right. So I've just had this fucking, I hate that expression, come to Jesus moment. The fuck does that mean? All right. I'm running from that guy. All right. Not him personally. All right. I got no problem with that surfing looking guy, you know, he looks like he, you know, goes out on a board out there in Malibu. Um, you know, carves up the waves or whatever. I got no beef with him, but it's, it's who we works for. I stay away from those guys. You know, I, I cut out like the middle, you know, religion, it, you know what it's like trying to give money to a charity. It's like trying to get the money to the actual people that use it once it goes through the fucking infrastructure is impossible. And that's what I find with like if you're going to try to have a relationship with the higher power, I don't get how you do that through organized fucking resident religion. You know, just inherently, it doesn't make any sense. I feel like you're a sense of a higher power and that there's something bigger than you is your own personal thing and that somebody privatized it and turned it into a fucking business and then starts throwing down rules and scaring the shit out of you and telling you, if you do this, you do that, all of the shits, they, they don't know, they have no fucking idea what they're talking about. And now it's a business and they're making all this money, you make money, you got boats, you got boats, you got money, you got hoars, you got hoars, you know, you're out there fucking, you know, fucking having a good time. You don't want it to end. So then I don't know it all, it all fucking goes away. So I, I feel like that's, that's my own business. And if, if all these different groups can make up their own bullshit, or what the fuck they think's going to happen after you die, why can't I? How come I can't have my own bullshit? And I like my bullshit because it doesn't involve anybody else. I'm not, I'm not putting it on anybody. There's no collection basket. There's no pedophiles. There's no getting in bed with the Nazis and oh, did we have some of your money? Sorry about that. There's none of that shit. None of that shit. There's no terrorists. There's no fucking 90 virgin. Then none of that shit. None of that shit. None of that shit. I don't even know what it is. It's just a, it's your own fucking thing. You're on your own. Do me a sweat. Some people, I think they'd let, they just like the group dynamic. You know, just to be part of something. I mean, a lot of people don't know this, but the, the, the Nazi party started with a bake sale. And people just wanting to be part of a community. Who is Elon Musk dating? Can you imagine his check when he just sees him go out there and then just watches him start to see Guiling and like, oh my God, what is he doing? He's going to burn this whole thing down. I think he just lost his job. Oh, wait a minute. Oh, wait a minute. Nothing happened. I cannot believe nothing happened. Nothing happened. How do you explain that away? Um, I saw some guy who was saying gesture, truthism and trying to like, make it seem like people were saying that he wasn't seek. I like it. Okay. What was he doing? What was he saying? And then my rockets go going to get launched and they go that way. Maybe it was, maybe it was taken out of context. You know, who would do the seag part of the pile, but not the whole seag pile was that, who that, that, uh, uh, uh, Celine Dion. It was like she was a Nazi that was stuttering. You know what I mean? She couldn't quite get through it. She don't, she would see, see, see, she'd like punch herself in the cleavage. Um, anyway, um, all right, this Sunday coming up, this Sunday coming up is, is, is sort of the, uh, the calm before the storm where there's no, I'm not talking about the soup ball. I'm talking about no football. You get to see what that's like, like, Oh, fuck. No football. Football fans. There's one game left. And then there's no football. There's no football. I don't know why more people don't watch the USFL. You're watching a college all-star game. There's sort of in the purgatory between being better than college football players and, uh, make it into the pros. There's somewhere like CFL level. Don't they play in the off season? I have no idea. This is the time of year I get into MotoGP starting up. So I get excited for that. The motorcycle racing there. And then, um, and then also like college basketball, that all comes to a head as we slide into match madness and then it's baseball season. And then we just fucking start all over again. Um, but anyway, um, Monday night, I was at the will turn, uh, was Shane Gillis, Andrew Santino and Dean Del Rey. And, uh, we had such a great time and, um, fucking Shane went out and absolutely murdered in front of me. Santino murdered Dean Del Rey murdered, even though they didn't turn the fucking lights down. They went on first. Everybody killed to the point I was like going that. Do they really need me to go on at the end of this fucking thing? And, um, it's funny. My act is in this weird place where it's either like really sort of fun uplifting family stories and then super dark conspiracy theory. So what I do is I do my conspiracy theory bits for a little bit. And when I feel like the crowd is getting too crazy, I then tell a funny family story and I'm like, Oh, yeah. Okay. There's the sun. Here comes the sun. And then I fucking go back to the other shit. But I tell them, I like, I, I know, I know, uh, I know this shit is dark. Just I'm kind of going through some shit here. You know, as I try to figure out where this, this new hour is going, but, um, I'm kind of excited. I want to hopefully, uh, I don't want it to be divisive is what I'm trying to do. And, uh, I think I'm doing a good job at it because I find like when I've sort of messed around with a few of my ideas on TV lately, promote my special that's coming out on Hulu on March 14th, um, drop dead years on Hulu. Um, I noticed people will still try and like politicize it. Uh, and then yeah, which is stupid. And it's just such a small amount of the population that is really interacting with that online. And I think a lot of it is just bots trying to get people going. Um, what did I see recently? Something about the bird flu and eggs and all of this shit and all of this stuff that's going on, the bird flu, right? And I go to the comments and every single comment is fucking political. Like how is a flu that birds are getting? That is existed forever. Bird flu has fucking exist. As far as I know, it's a part of nature. How do you politicize that? How the fuck do you blame that on somebody? Like every and this is what kills me. We are so conditioned to being divided at this point. I feel we're actually doing it to each other. All right. And these fucking laminated face to hairplug fucking streaming service, fucking social media nerds actually have bots on there that are designed to get people into arguments. Um, so they'll interact with the social media platform so they can get credit for that so they can charge. Well, I don't know what it is. Like that's how you make your money. You make your money dividing people. Um, it's pretty wild. Um, but anyway, you know, I think liberals need to change their stance on guns though, which would make conservatives excited until every liberal had a gun. You know, it might be a little educated. It might be a little smarter. It might be a better shot. You never know. Can you, I don't want to go up against somebody that was on the fucking math team that actually knows how to fucking shoot as opposed to some other guy like, man, I just fucking whip it out and pour it fucking squeeze it. Although, you know, those guys grew up with them. I have no idea, but like, I just don't you feel like they're trying to push us towards another civil war here. Like what, over what? Like what exactly like when you really sit down and think about what the fuck is the problem right now that it is this tense? Like, you know, if you don't watch the news, if you stay off the social media and you leave your house, this is fucking war the world's like nothing is really happening. Like what is the fucking problem? You get out of the street. You want to say how much boom, there it is. You got your entire music collection with you. You can play it in the car. You can fantasize that you're in the band or that that chick you had a crush on in high school, you know, you can do that. Nobody stops you from doing that. You can go on a hike. You can play with your dog. It's really awful what people in power do on both sides. The way they divide us and always get us like afraid that you can, you're going to live your whole fucking life worrying about tomorrow as opposed to just having a good time. A good time today. Hey Elon Musk, if you don't mind, we'd like to enjoy our life. I don't think we need to reboot Adolf Hitler. You fucking lunatic. I'm sorry pretty girls don't like you until you have a billion dollars. Dude, when he was Siegel Island, that looked like one of those crazy Nick Cage movies. You ever see that clip when Nick Cage went out and he was like throwing karate kicks? He was like, he was like promoting a movie. He just fucking went out and I don't know what. He was probably towards the end. Some, you know, I don't know. Some people don't know. You do those press junkets. You're going to get asked the same 30 questions like 30 million times. And after a while, you kind of fucking lose your mind. And that's what I love about that clip. I feel like Nick was at the end of his fucking is end of his wits there. And he was just, yeah, I can throw it kicks. Yeah, I feel like maybe Elon, he has all this money and power and he thought it was going to fill that fucking void and it didn't. And rather than face it in a panic of the profound loneliness. Okay, and I'm coming from an apathetic place here because I experienced that when I took mushrooms. It's profound sense of loneliness. And then you either face that and figure out where it is. Or you just go full Nazi. I don't think he's I feel he's more Mussolini. If I'm to look at his face, I feel he's more Mussolini than he is, than he is Hitler. But I got to be honest with you, the fact that he did that and everyone isn't fucking outraged is just is beyond me. Because I always felt like this country collectively all agreed that Hitler was not a good person to put it mildly. And I also think that we all look at World War two as far as the sacrifices that were made and what was prevented was a good thing. I feel like that's the last war that we had where people weren't like, you know, some people are like, well, Vietnam, oh, you know, they were stopping the spread of communism. And then other people are like, no, that was just a fucking to do to do whatever. Right. But World War two, I was always collectively like, yeah, those were bad people. They needed to be stopped. And the sacrifices that people made when was not in vain, that was without a doubt, a just operation. I thought that's where we all were. And the irony that this fucking asshole was able to make a billion dollars in the nation that those kids saved in the 1940s, would then turn around and fucking spoon with the person that was killing their their their fucking fellow soldiers. It's just it's beyond me. It's just fucking beyond me. I don't know. You know, he reminds me of like back in the day, like when I was coming up, it was an entire generation of comedians that I was in that was enamored with Bill Hicks. And you'd see these Bill Hicks rip offs and they would have they would go on stage and they would have like a leather jacket and they'd be smoking a cigarette talking about society, man. I feel like he's doing that. I think he's like like a recovered nerd. And now he's trying to be like the bad boy. What was that Johnny Depp movie? Was a really good movie. I like all those movies, but like it was that one. The fuck was it called? It was almost like a musical. He was like 1950s cry baby or something like that. I feel like he's trying to be that character. He's trying to be like this bad boy, this bad boy that Kate Moss would date. And I just don't think it's going to happen about how much money he has. I think that realization hit him and he did not handle it. And in a panic, he went full fucking third break. He went fourth break. He's trying to keep it going. I'm sorry I'm laughing about this shit because I don't know what to do about it. It's fucking terrifying. It is absolutely fucking terrifying. Not that he did it because there's idiots everywhere. It's that the lack of we need to stop this fucking immediately is beyond, beyond disturbing. Out of all the people you could have emulated. Alright plowing ahead here. So I don't know what else, what else I got. Oh, so my surprise party last night. It just was, it was such a great thing. My wife absolutely crushed it as she always does. And it was this great after party down at the bike shed in LA. If you've never been there, there's one there and there's one in London. And all they show is motorcycle racing there and a bunch of motorcycles are there. They have motorcycles on display. There's a barbershop there. There's a place, you know, you can actually buy all this stuff if you ride and all it's just amazing food. It's just an incredible place. And I'd been, you know, went down there a couple times and I actually did a gig down there one time for the LAPD and sort of their function room, which was a really funny gig because like I was doing the gig for all the cops and everyone was enjoying it. And then there was this one woman in the front who was, you know, I think just classy, went to church every week and was not appreciating what I was saying. But she, I, you know, I was like, you're a cop. I know you know your rights. You have the ability to leave if you want to. And she just decided to stay there and look at me like a disappointed mother's the entire fucking set. It was still a good time. But my brain definitely went back to that when I went in, like, Oh, man. But it was just such a, it was such a great night. It was kind of what I needed. And that's why I love my wife. Well, I married her. She knew I was like really sad and depressed about leaving my family and friends and all that. So she gave me a nice big send off. Yeah, it was, I was definitely needed. So if you're listening and you were there from the bottom of my heart, thank you for coming out. All right. And with that, we've come to the end of the podcast here. The bar has gone even lower that now if you just don't see Gile today, I think you had a good day. Anyway, what else? What else? I think that is it. I got some work to do. I gotta fucking keep trying to get off book with this thing. Next time I talk to you guys, I will be in New York City. And I'll be getting ready for this next amazing experience in this business. So that's it. Enjoy the music picked out by Andrew Themless, another one of my great friends in life. And we'll have a bonus episode of Thursday afternoon, just before Friday, Monday morning podcast afterward. Have a great weekend. You can't and I'll talk to you on Monday. Hey, what's going on? It's Bill Burr, and it is time for the Monday morning podcast from Monday, January 30th, 2017. What's going on? How are you? As you can tell by my little slightly more relaxed home, my kids are sleep downstairs. So I can't scream. I can't yell. I can't rant and rave. Oh, I can do those things, but I have to do it in a controlled manner. That's what I have to do, you know, because the dynamics of the house changed a little bit. And I know what you're thinking. So Bill, does that mean the dynamic? Is your podcast just going to change a little bit? Yeah, just a little bit, but nothing crazy. You know, like listen to me right now. You would have no idea that right before I got on this podcast, I just meditated. I meditated for 10 minutes. I shut it down. Let's focus on the sounds in the room. Now gently let those go away and focus on your breathing. I did that 10 minutes. I guess it's helping me out. You know, I had one, one melt down this week. I was trying to figure out how to put the fucking car seat into the car. And I swear to God, dude, like the level, the level that they have over designed those things is insane. I swear to God, I hope auto racing, they should put those fucking drivers in car seats. Then nothing would ever happen to them. I couldn't figure out how to get this effing thing in there. And I just say effing. Yeah, I'm trying to learn how the kids influence. It's coming in. I've been cracking me up by doing that. Going, hey, quit talking S and just, you know, abbreviating curses to her. It's hilarious because all she's ever heard me do was just, you know, curse my brains out. And I was making a laugh last night because we were laying in bed when we were watching Wheel of Fortune with a beautiful baby between us. And I was just doing what I always do. I was trashing all the contestants and everything on their head. You know, I can say about the Wheel of Fortune, man, they're fucking some stingy cunts on that show. When it comes down to the thing, whoever the one of the three that won, when they go over and then you try to win some big money to get in for one big hit for like 50 or 60 grand, those puzzles, they're practically impossible. And the clues throw you off. They had one, they said a phrase because this is the phrase. We'll give you these letters. And of course, you know, none of them show up, right? Then you pick some and a few of those show up. This was the phrase, our first voyage. That's a phrase. I mean, technically it's a phrase, but if you're going to say it's a phrase, there should be something like, like to me, a phrase, it's somewhere between, you know, an expression and, you know, just some random shit, right? That's a phrase. Does that make any sense? Like an expression. Hey, you know, fucking stitch in time saves night. Is that an expression? Is that a soliloquy? I don't know what that is. Okay. But I know that's not a phrase. That's something else, but I don't know what that is. But a phrase is just some comma. Hey, check, please. You know, I don't fucking touch that. I don't know. I can't think of a good one, but you know what I mean? Our first voyage is a phrase. Technically, it's a phrase. Pat say, Jack, I never really like they always fuck the person over. They try to limit the RSS and T's in it because they know everybody's going to, going to guess those ones. I don't know. And he always pulls the card. I'm sorry. And they give me like eight seconds to solve it. You don't get it. And then he always pulls out some ridiculous amount of money. It was for, it was going to be for 90 grand. Very stingy. But what do you expect? Because I remember back in the day they had the shittiest prizes on that show. It's almost like they didn't want you to be happy when you left. So as much as I'm enjoying that show, I don't know, I'm starting to just getting ready to move on to a new game show. Jesus Christ is my fucking tired. I don't know how the hell I'm going to get through this hour. Because then I got to run over. I'm doing Conan O'Brien tonight. Everybody please tune in to hype my stand up special that comes out tomorrow on Netflix, my fifth one, called Walk Your Way Up. I know what you think. Bill, why don't you call it Walk Your Way Up? Well, if you watch the show, you'll understand. How about that? But if you guys could, you know, social media, the whole thing up and just let people know to check the thing out so the dream continues. I would really appreciate it. I'm very proud of this one. I hope you guys like it too. I had a great time doing it and we shot at this beautiful venue called the Rynman, which is the original place where they shot the Grand Ole Opry. They had a couple of floorboards left from the original stage. So when you walk on those, those are the same ones as Elvis, Johnny Cash, and you know, a bunch of other white guys in fucking Mini Pearl, who walked down Hank Williams. Hank Williams, Jr., Ike Williams, Jr., Jr. I told you guys I got satellite radio finally in my car after all those years of being on it on the Opry and Anthony show way back in the day. XM satellite radio way back in the day. I never had it and I didn't realize how fucking great it is and I've actually gotten a little bit into country music, but it's that Willie Nelson Roadhouse channel. I like the old stuff. I had a new shit. I just don't fucking -- I just don't -- I don't get it. I'm not into it at all. There's got to be somebody. There's no fucking way you can have an entire genre of music and not have anybody today doing it well. But who knows? So I haven't done shit this week, people. I don't have any jokes. I don't even know what the fuck to talk to you about. I've been watching Celtics and Bruins shit. I was so tired the other day. My daughter was crying. My wife was holding my daughter and I walked over with the pacifier to try to quiet the kid and I literally walked up and tried to put it in my wife's mouth. She laughed thinking I was fucking around and I was like, oh, sorry, sorry. Because when I walked over, she was talking and all I was thinking was make the noise stop and I tried to stick it in her mouth. So anyway, so I'm starting to understand why so many parents are so -- are so cunty to people who either don't have kids or they're about to have kids. And they -- I don't know. They're not nice people. They really aren't. And I'm going to try not to be that person. I'm not going to resent someone who doesn't have kids because they have free time that I no longer have. It's such a fucking -- I don't know. It's a weird thing, you know, when you have a kid because you get to experience this new level of love and then you also get to see this other side of people just like, ah, they were just fucking -- I don't know. I don't know. I ran to yet another person. Oh, dude, you're going to have no free time. You don't have no free time to fucking do it. I went to a drum lesson Saturday and I went to the NHL All-Star game on Sunday. You know, the rest of my time was fucking, you know, dealing with the kid, but I'm still doing shit. You know, some -- I think a lot of fucking people, they didn't do shit before they had a kid. They don't have a fucking hobby. They don't have anything that they're passionate about. I don't know what it is, but they're miserable cons. I got to get away from them, you know? I just had a buddy of mine say, congratulations, I'm thinking about having a kid, you know, next year. I just said, that's great. It's your experience. Don't talk to parents. They're not saying people, myself included. Just, you know, it's going to be great. Have a good time. Be nice at people at that, huh? But why would you do that? Why would you do that when you can't get some of your fucking resentment out on a completely innocent person? I'm going to stop bitching about this shit. I think I've made my point. So anyways, I'm selling more shit. Oh, I'm selling more shit. Everything's on the chop and block. I got that John Bonham drum kit that I have that's 71 Ludwig Green Sparkle. I'm actually toying with the idea, selling that fucking thing because I, it's just too fucking big for me. It's not comfortable playing it. The symbols, I don't even like the sound of them. It's not my sound. And I did the stupid fucking thing that every weekend warrior want to be hobbyist musician does. I'm going to buy Eddie Van Halen's guitar. Did I play like Eddie Van Halen? No, you won't. You'll just be a douche with an Eddie Van Halen guitar. Who isn't Eddie Van Halen? So I made that mistake. So I'm actually thinking about, actually, I toyed with the idea, but then I, I went in and I looked at the drums and they're so beautiful. I don't know if I can fucking do it, but I don't know. I would rather get a drum kit that may be set up for fucking how I'm built. I swear to God, I played that thing out on the comedy jam twice. And I, to go from the rack tom to the floor tom, it's a 26 inch bass drum. It's, you got to take like a taxi to go from the rack or just the way I'm built. So to get to the fucking, from the rack to the floor, I always go via the snare just to give me that extra split second just to get over the fucking thing. I don't know how this bottom guy did it, but you know, it's not working for me. So I'm thinking of getting rid of that and going out by maybe like a Gretch or something like that with like a 22 inch kick instead of a 26 and I have a 14 inch floor tom instead of having that as a rack tom. I think that, I always like the 14 floor. I know this is some fucking nerdy drum shit, but yeah, I think I want to do that and get them out of the fucking house. I'll go find a fucking studio space for like a couple hundred bucks a month and I'll just have a brand new kit because that's the only thing that stops me from setting that thing up because it's a vintage kit. I'm like, Oh my God, well, if somebody steals it, it's irreplaceable. But if I buy a brand new one, brand new samples, you get a little bit insurance, you know, 50 bucks a month, I walk in there one day, somebody steals it. I just fucking get another one because they're still making them. I'm trying to get out of that disease of like an old shit. I love old shit, but then you get it and it just becomes this fucking thing when it breaks. Oh my God, how the fuck am I going to try and find the parts for it? They can remember my bodyguard and the big dude from from pile. What is your major malfunction? What the fuck was that called? Full metal jacket. Remember that guy? He played the the dude who protected the kid from meatballs. Anyways, he had a fucking motorcycle. There was some little piece of the carburetor that couldn't fucking fight. So of course, because it's a Hollywood movie, you know, because it's a Hollywood movie, you know, they go into a junkyard and the little nerdy kid finds it, you know, and then that's their the little bonding moment. I tell you guys how much I hate that. When I watch TVs and movies, TV shows and movies, I hate the fucking convenience of how everything fucking works out. I also like two nights ago, I was doing stand up at the comedy store and I was talking shit about being a white dude, you know, because it's funny because you're not allowed to do it. You know, every other group of people could be like proud of their accomplishments, but we can't, white dudes can't because of all the horrific shit that we've done wipes out any sort of accomplishment. So jokely saying like, you know, we did this, we did that, we went to the moon into this woman yells out, hidden figures, go see hidden figures. I'm just, you know, I cannot stand people that go to see a Hollywood movie and think that they just read a history book. It's just fucking like, and then they think they're informed. It's like, you're not informed. You watched a movie. I told you guys that shit. Do you know that movie? Sully when that thing came out, they wanted to make the co-pilot an alcoholic just to raise the stakes. And the real guy who's really alive and still flies had to like threaten to sue or something to be like, guys, you can't fucking put that out there about me. I'm not an alcoholic. I have a career in commercial aviation. You can't start floating it out to the world that I'm a fucking alcoholic. And they were like, all right. So that's all I'm saying. Okay, I'm not saying that there weren't some people doing some math and all that. Just don't fucking, my only thing about that, and this is myself included, don't fucking come after me when you've never, you never heard of those people. And all you did was go out and go see the fucking movie and start coming to me like you, like you went to fucking graduate school. So I had fun with that. I probably went too hard. You know, I brought up that guy who fucking, you know, that dude who figured out that when you're out in outer space, that if you perspired that your sweat would boil and you would literally boil in your own sweat so that a spacesuit was literally like a giant radiator, some dude figured out that that would happen. Figured out that that would fucking happen before we even went out there. You know, where's that guy's movie? Huh? Where is his movie? Oh, Jesus Christ. What else? Yes, I went to the NHL All-Star game. Three on three, this crazy format. I think, you know, they're going in the right direction because everybody knows that All-Star games are mind-numbly boring. The baseball one's pretty good. Baseball, I would say baseball is the best All-Star game. The NBA All-Star game, I guess, is sort of fun because nobody's going to play D and everybody's going to dunk, so it's a little interesting. But I'd say the baseball one's the best, so the NHL is trying to figure out, you know, a format on how to make theirs competitive and people to give a shit. So they take like all four divisions, and I didn't even understand the format. You played like five minutes, then you played another five minutes, and then two other divisions came out. You played five and five, and then the winner of those two then played in the finals. I don't know how the fucking thing worked. Or did you play two 10-minute periods? I was at the game and I could figure out what was going on, and it was unbelievably quiet when it was in there. They should have played the first five minutes, five on five, and then the next one, you know, there's no way to make an All-Star game exciting. That's just basically it, because you know what? They just have too much to lose. Back, you know, some I bet when the All-Star games were great were back in the day when professional athletes also had like off-season day jobs. Like you played for the Cleveland Browns from September till the end of December, and then the rest of the year you were like pouring concrete. Like those lunatics, they got in shape by, you know, being the Jack Hammer guy on a road crew. I bet then they had some good games, because then there was probably the pride of like our conference is better than your conference and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But there's just too much money at stake, but it was still fun to go down there and see all that type of stuff, but that's was part of my nerd, you know, fandom thing that I have. I've now been to every All-Star game except for the baseball one. So now, of course, with my fucking OCD, I don't even know what I'm going for going to all of these fucking games at this point, but I don't know. You know what's cool about it is it keeps me going to different places, you know, because at some point I want to go to that, I've been to one golfing major in order to go to all four. The first three are not difficult. Well, the US Open and the PGA are not difficult. You can get fucking tickets. The fucking US Open and golf, I mean, they're just animals. You know, when you watch that golf tournament and you hear those people screaming and yelling, it sounds like the third show at some shit fucking comedy club on a Saturday night, just a bunch of drunks, and then I can police anybody because they want to make their money off selling them booze. The Masters is the hard one because they don't sell tickets. And here's a heads up on that. The first time I did it, you get like these badges that are given to the members and they're not supposed to sell them, but they all do. And everybody kind of looks the other way, right? So then you go to these brokers that have these badges, you pay way too much fucking money for them, and you show up at somebody's fucking house. This is what happened to me. And the first time I did it, I went with two people and we lucked out. And we got the badges, me and Versi, we went in 2010. Then a few years later, we went to go again and I brought five fucking people to the same people's house. And they said, ah, there was a mix up with the badges. And then the lady who was going to pay us just fucking goes, I'll be right back to go get them. And she just fucking left. And that's the last time we saw her. And then the husband just waited us out on the front yard. And, ah, and I was just out the money and they completely fucked us over. And I lost a ton of money as did a number of other people. And we were talking about trying to remember we were standing outside the house just waiting for them. The neighbors came walking by going like, Oh, do they screw you out of the badges? Yeah, they did that a few years before. And, um, you know, just started having fantasies about burning down their fucking house and all of that type of shit. And then, um, I don't know, I just kind of let it go. And you know, it's funny is every time I let it go, like fully just let it go and just be like, you know what? I did get to go to it. Part of buying scalp tickets is every once in a while you get fucked over. It happened to me at a Ravens game one time. I ended up buying some tickets that were stolen season tickets. And they kicked me out of the fucking stadium and then I had to buy another pair of scalp tickets to get back in. I mean, it's it happens. But what's funny about that, um, then when I get fucked over at the, uh, the masters, and I bought, I bought five of those fucking things. So I was out a lot of money. What was funny about that is every time I go to let it go. Cause I remember saying the guy said, dude, if you don't give me money back, I'm going to suit, I'm going to sue you and blah, blah, said all this stuff. And then the guy little Elmo, the fud looking fucking dude, just kidding me. You never get you moved back. Remember this fucking this other fucking fat fuck. I was going, well, well, how much money you got in your pocket from the other ones? Give me that money. Because you ain't giving me that money. Come and get it. Let's see you try. All right. It was like one of those moments and there was like five of us and we could all beat the shit out of the guy, but you know what's going to happen? You're going to beat the shit out of them. Okay. Then we're not going to get them money. We're going to go to jail. They're going to sue us for assault. There's just no way to win. The only way to win a fight. Once you pass like high school, once you become an adult, the only way to win a fucking fight is you have no money and you have nothing to lose and you're homeless. That's the only way to win it. Because then you're going to get arrested and you're going to go to jail and at least now you got a place to stay for the night. You get some meals, you don't have to beg for food. Other than that, you're going to fucking lose because I sat there and kept trying to do the math going, how the fuck, you know, having those violent things, you know, I'm sure there's a fucking tire iron in the car. If I smash both these guys over the fucking heads, which I'm not going to do, I've never done anything even remotely that violent, but you're so fucking mad when you're getting fucked out of money, you start having these fantasies. Just because it makes you feel better of just thinking of caving in the side of their fucking heads, I just kept trying to do the math on how we would get away and you just can't do it anymore. You know, back in the day you could do that, you could jump on your horse and fucking ride away, it was over. You know, there wasn't some minor with the cell phone fucking camera and you've, the horse had a license plate on his fucking tail and you were screwed, you were done. You know, somebody following you with the fucking drone and there was just no way, there was no way to do it other than to just take my loss and then I was going to quadruple it and God knows what else. You know, and the kind of people that would do to us, what they did to us, I was like, what would they do in a court of law if I was actually guilty of doing something to them? You know what I mean? So I let go of it. I said, fuck it. It's a loss who gives a shit. We'll make it up. We'll come back at some other time. We'll go, go again. Fuck it. And every time I would go to let go of it, you know, start to let go of it, start to let go of it, fucking Paul Versey, the half Sicilian part of him who can never forget anything like that would call me up and just get me fucking off. He'd get me all riled up again. I'd be like, Paul, you got to stop doing it. And he would sit there calling me up like he's Sammy the bull. If Sammy didn't fucking sell out and I'm fucking the other guy there. What is it? What the Teflon don there? I'm going to sit Giuliani. Gody, John Gody. And he would call me up just telling me what he was going to do to that guy's house. And of course he didn't do it. And he's not going to do it. He's married. He's got two kids, but he would call it up, call me up, and I would get me going again. He did this for fucking years. Now it's just a joke. Now it's just like once a year he'll call me up and be like, hey, dude, not for nothing, but I thought about this again the other day. I was thinking not even fucking saying anything to you and just going down there and then just calling you up and being like, hey, Bill, it's done. It's done. And I go, yeah, and right there, right there, you'd call me up and then you'd say something over the phone. And because it's not illegal now to listen to people's phone calls right there, we would get caught. You would have to do, Paul, is you would have to go down and do it. Know that you did it and then not say anything to me ever until one day. Maybe we were out to fucking see in international waters. And then even then we'd have to go to the back of the boat when the engines were on. You'd have to put your hand over your fucking mouth like fucking Joe Pesci and De Niro and Casino. And then you could tell me, oh, by the way, I burned down that guy's fucking house. So anyway, I don't even know how the fuck I got onto that story. I don't think I ever told you guys that story because I was so fucking mad about it for years. Oh, I know what I was talking about. I was just talking about going to all these different games. So be aware of that. If you ever go to the Masters, unless you have a really good hookup, if you're just going to buy from a regular person, try to keep it at two. Because what happened because we were a group of five and they didn't have enough badges, they decided like we're going to have one group fucking pissed at us rather than having, you know, you know, three groups of two fucking pissed off. I forget. I mean, we had just like, all right, we're just going to have this is one group of people that will bitch as opposed to having like, oh, yeah, they fucked me over. They fucked my group. They fucked my group. So it was just just us complaining. Actually, I think there was one other couple too. I don't know. I got to stop talking about because it's going to get me fucking mad again. Those goddamn cunts. You know, you need money back. Oh, God. Oh, it's fucking elbow fun. Any other the fat fuck redneck, this stupid orange shirt. I still remember his big guy. He has this big fucking beer belly. Oh, my God. Oh, the beautiful sound of a bat hitting all that flesh. Oh, that would have been heaven. But you know, that's not what you're supposed to do as an adult. And who's kidding? Who? I've never done that to anybody. And I would have been like, I would have alligator armed it. And I just would have made him mad. Then he would have smothered me with all that fucking hillbilly fat. And I would have lost. And I would have been out the money. I'd be leaving with grass stains all over myself. It would have been horrible. All right. Oh, that's right. Valentine's Day is coming up. I'm so fucking sleepy. Do my kid last night got up. I started a fall sleeper on midnight. She got up at I get up at 1257 110. Two oh something, three oh something. Then she went to four 30, which was unbelievable. Just get that extra 30 minutes. Then she went to six. And for whatever reason, she sleeps from like six a.m. to like nine or like nine 30. And I just know at that six o'clock one that when I change that diaper and I get her all settled down again, that I can actually just like it's fine. That's what the podcast is a little late here. But thank God, I'm a stand up comedian. Okay, you people that actually have jobs. We have to fucking get up at eight 30 in the goddamn morning to go dry. I don't know how you just don't nod off and traffic and drive into a fucking guard reel. So my hat's off to you. All right. There we go. Thank Christ. Thank Christ. It's over. It's over. All right. Let's get into some of the reads for this week. I might come up a little short for my usual hour, everybody. Because I got the cars coming at noon. Don't Billy has not fucking done anything yet. I got to get ready to do this fucking show. All right. Oh, you know what I didn't bring up? I've been watching, of course, been watching the Celtics and the Bruins and all that. Bruins had a big victory against the Penguins before the all star break. Granted, Malkin wasn't playing, but it was still, we had played a great game. And I have to go down to nothing if I remember correctly. And then the Celtics have been playing great at a big win against the Bucks. Who the fuck did they beat right before that? I watched like every one of them. I really enjoy it. I can't believe it. I'm back into NBA hoop. Okay, let me get to, let's get to some of the reads here for this week. Oh, Super Bowl celebrations. Dear Billy Bloodhound. Oh, don't ever tell you guys how much I love a Bloodhound. Oh, the fucking amount of dogs that I fucking love, but I love that dog. You know, they just got that chilling out vibe. Any, you got to love a hound. Because all you have to do is go, bro, and they do it with you. That's it. That's all I need. That's all I was looking for. This Valentine's Day. Okay, ladies, if you really love your husband or your boyfriend, right? Just get, get him a Bloodhound. You know, and then you can be as crazy as you want to fucking be. And all he has to do is just every once in a while be hanging out with his dog when you're not around. You know, he just looks over him. Hey, buddy, buddy. And it does it with him. It just makes you feel good. Maybe it's just me. I don't know. I heard you mentioned Bloodhounds last week. I know you're not looking to get a dog anytime soon. But when you do, definitely consider a Bloodhound. They're unbelievably unbelievable with real young kids. I've had two with both my kids. Anyways, my question is, if you ever have been to a Super Bowl, that's they're great with kids. That's good to know. By the way, I keep getting updates with Cleo. She's doing great. She's loving her new family and everything's awesome with her. And I might do a show at some point in the vicinity of the new people that have the dog just to visit and say hello. I don't know if I should do that or not. I don't know if it'll fuck the dog up or if it'll just make me sad all over again. I don't know what, but I still, you know what the fuck? I just look at like that's one of my kids and she's gone off to college and every once in a while I check in. How about that? Anyways, my question is, have you ever been to a Super Bowl or hung around for the week before seeing what all the action is like? My friend asked me if I wanted to go this year, but I'd rather watch it at home. I like to watch Sports Alone. Love you one cow herd. Go Pats. All right, here's the deal. I have been to two Super Bowls. I went to the Patriots when we played the Green Bay Packers. Remember that in Brett Favreau? Fucking through that touchdown pass and then took his helmet off and ran like half the fucking football field because his agent told him to do that and give us a big astronaut smile when you do it, right? That was cool just to be, like the first time you go to a Super Bowl, if you ever lucky enough to go to one, there is that thing that you can't believe you're at the thing that basically most of the United States is watching, that you're there. And I remember going down there, it was a New Orleans and it was just all the Patriots fans were a bunch of drunks and then of course the Wisconsin fans who are the same level of drunks but there's just something about Wisconsin, like the Midwest, there's a certain level of common decency. Decency, I don't know what it is. I don't know, they just don't go as hard. It's weird, certain times you see them though, they're more animals than East Coast people but you know, it's an ugly thing, East Coast sports fans. We're lunatics. So we're all up there screaming and yelling on one of those balconies fucking hammered down on Bourbon Street, right? And John Kerry walked by and everybody was yelling at John Kerry, what do you think about the Patriots? Blah, blah, blah. And he just looked up and he had this big phony smile. This is like an act out, you're not gonna get it. But you know that stupid old school, let's go get him and you do the, you make a fist right? And you kind of act like you're maybe throwing a baseball to home plate, you're like, yeah, kind of do one of those. He did it, he did it like slow motion. He made the fist, he paused and he just went and they kind of threw it like that really slow. It was so fucking weird. He was so detached from his own body and I'm convinced now after I saw Bill Clinton do it that they just know people are taking pictures of them. So they don't even even have a fuck about interacting with you. It's all about what you look like in the paper. That was that time I told you a long story but I ended up Bill Clinton when he was still president. This is pre getting impeached and all that shit. He came down to Boston and one of my friends wanted to go down and see the motorcade. I didn't want to fucking go. My buddy didn't want to go. He convinces us to fucking go. He's gonna buy lunch. We got five fucking right. So we fucking go down there. He's all excited. He just wants to see the motorcade go by because he'd saw, watched so much of that JFK shit. You know, he just wanted to see a motorcade and that's like a big deal to see the presidential motorcade. I can admit that was pretty exciting to see. So they start coming down the street. And right before they get to us, we're like, finally, here it comes. He's gonna see the motorcade drive by and then we get all fucking go home. He can buy his lunch, right? Right before they got to us, they made a right turn to go into this alley. Right before they got to us, like, you know, probably 50 yards up and like, ah, you got to be fucking kidding me. And this dude was so into like no one politics. He was just going like, ah, don't worry. He's just going to go in there. It's a woman's college. He usually speaks on average from 50 to 65 minutes. I'll go run and get us some, you know, a couple slices of pizza, whatever. So we go fine. So he fucking takes off and we're standing there. And all of a sudden the secret service starts walking down the street telling everybody, we're up against those little police little saw horse things telling us, get your hands up, your hands up. And the motorcade starts driving and who's walking down the street fucking Bill Clinton with Ted Kennedy and somebody else? Ted Kennedy was first. I think I already told the story. Dude, his fucking head, I swear to God, was the size of like a fucking safe. I've never seen a head that big in my life. Like, I literally went to like, yeah, have both your hands up so the secret service could see your hand. And they were just sort of high-fiving people. Um, as they walk by, I remember Bill Clinton comes by and everybody's like, Oh, Mr. President, Bill Clinton, and he wasn't saying anything. He just had both his hands up. He was slowly walking. And just imagine smiling with your mouth open like, yeah, like you were doing that, but your face was just frozen. He was just walking past all of us doing that like, and everybody was yelling to him. Everybody was saying stuff and he did not say anything to anybody. He just had that, uh, fucking look on his face with both his hands up. He looked like a fucking crazy person, but then the next day, the front page of the paper, you see the guy and he's on the front page of the paper like, ah, it looked like we were all having a great time. I thought there was something wrong with them. Also, I will tell you right now, dude, the softest fucking hands of any guy ever, ever. He has not done a fucking day's work of manual labor in his life. Baby soft. Now they have a daughter, baby soft fucking hands. That's how he gets the ladies. That's what it is. He puts one of those soft baby hands on your shoulders, takes out a cigar and it is game set match. So anyways, he fucking does this shit. Then they jump in the car and then they fucking leave everybody's freaking out. And then then it's just over and people just start to walk away and leave. Okay. All of this took less than like 38 seconds. Okay. Cause the secret service was not going to have the president exposed to the public for that long. So anyways, he jumps in the car as I leave, everybody's like like high off of, oh my God, I shook the president's hand. How big was Ted Kennedy's head? That takes about a minute for people to be like, what the fuck? And then people just start walking away. And then like 15 seconds after that, my buddy comes walking up. The dude who wanted to see all of it. And he just sees everybody has left. I remember he was biting into a slice of pizza and he kind of stopped his bite and he just looks over and he goes, I missed it, didn't I? And I just looked at him and I felt bad. I was like, I shook his hand and he goes, no, you didn't. And then my buddy was a total pot head was galloping around sideways, like in a circle, just screaming, I shook it twice. I was such a fucking sad, quiet ride home. And we would try and not the fucking lap we just started laughing after a while. And he just refused to believe it. But the details we had, he knew that it was fucking true. And then the next day in the paper, he saw because he was saying like, dude, he wasn't saying anything. I'll never forget that he just was like, but without like that's the noise he should have been making. But he wasn't making that noise. He just had his mouth open with his fucking hands up. And the next day in the paper, though, he looked like a champ. The man looked like a champ. All right. Jesus, that was a long way to go. What was I talking about? The first time I went to a Super Bowl. Yes. So we went to it and Bill Parcel's fucked us over that year because that was his whole fucking stupid thing. Like, you want me to cook to dinner? You gotta let me buy the groceries. Because what's his face? Robert Kraft overruled him and said you should take Terry Glenn and fucking Bill Parcel's ego couldn't fucking handle that, right? And then he proceeds to tell the team that he's leaving and then he put his fucking house up for sale before we even played the goddamn game. It's one of the most selfish things. If that's true, that's the, you know, that's a rumor of what the fuck happened. Then you know what kills me? He fucking goes to coach. Everyplace else he goes to coach. Who does he bring along with him? Terry Glenn. Unreal. Unreal. But whatever. Let's plow ahead here. Oh, and then the second time I went, I went to the Patriots versus the Rams. And we won that game, obviously, and went at last second. And then I was just like, you know what? Every time the Patriots go, I'm going to go to the Super Bowl. So the next time we played, which was either against the Panthers or the Eagles, I can't remember. I think the Panthers. I was going to go, but the next day, I had like a six or seven AM call time to do that Chappelle Show Sketch World Series at DICE. That's the first time I met Charlie Murphy and all those guys. And so there was no way I could go. And I was, you know, I was all upset. Like, oh, man, I'm going to miss the game and blah, blah. But I got to tell you that Sunday night when the game was over and the Patriots won, you know, and I was sitting on my futon and my fucking pork excuse for a one bedroom in New York City. I remember when the game was over, I watched it with a couple of friends and they were leaving. The game was over and I still had like two grand in my pocket because that's basically back then when you were looking at dropping like, you could get tickets to be like 1,500 bucks plus the hotel and all the travel and everything was going to be another 500 bucks. The end of the game when I still had two grand in my pocket, I was just like, yeah, you know what? This is better. I went, I saw him lose. I know what that feels like. I went, I saw him win. I saw him win their first one in the last play. It's never going to get better than that. I'll go again someday when I have a kid. So someday my daughter, if she wants to go, I'll take her. But if you've never been, I would definitely go. It's worth going one time. But, you know, I was kind of all set back. This is back when I still just had the regular square TV. Forget about the flat screen now with the surround sound and all that shit. I don't know. Plus I don't know. I just like watching the game rather than, you know, I don't like everybody, all that shit talking when your team loses or if you win, watching your fans talking shit to other people. It's just like, we didn't have anything to do with it. We got lucky or we got fucked. What are you going to do? All right. Paranoia or legit worry? Okay. Hey, hey, Bill Burlicek. Congratulations on your new baby, huge fan of the podcast. I'm a 30 year old naturalized citizen who immigrated from South Korea when I was 10 as an immigrant and now a proud American. I'm writing to you in regards to the current state of messy affairs going on at the White House. Why do you guys ask me this shit? You know, I'm just a comedian. I'm going to solve this problem. Do you still think that Hilldog would have been just as bad as our current president with Trump's reaction? I'm not so sure anymore. Hillary might have been corrupt, as you mentioned, in your previous podcast, but I believe she would not have taken such a radical brash action based on intolerance and hatred. Not to that level, but they're going to keep the wars going. You haven't noticed like Obama said he was going to end the wars. He was going to shut down Guantanamo. None of them did it. They're not going to do it. I can't get into this type of shit. Look, if you believe that this government, that governments act on what is right for people, you know, rather than money, everybody, everybody past a certain level moves on money, that's it. Same thing in my business, okay? Why don't they make better movies because they want to make money? Why are there so many cliches? Why are there so many shitty ones? It's the same fucking thing. Do I think Hillary would do something like that? No, I do not. I don't think that she would do something like that. But she do a bunch of other evil things. My point in all of that shit, okay, when the amount of shit that Trump got during the election about being evil and a horrible fucking person, I never disputed any of that. But everybody was acting like Hillary was a good person. I say that she wasn't. And I was trying to get people to look at other options, which nobody's going to do because they just go, well, that's a waste of a vote because you're not going to win anyway. So my thing with American voters is you get exactly what you fucking deserve. If you don't have the balls to not fucking do not vote for the representative of the Republican and the Democrats who've been fucking you over since the day you've been born and try to get outside of this and try to pick somebody from a different fucking party that actually wants to call out bankers and calls out corporate corruption and deregulation and pharmaceutical companies and fucking genetically altered food, all of that shit that never gets fucking brought up with the fucking two guys who are, the man or the woman or the two guys usually that are in the fucking the showdown between the Republican and Democrat, you get what you fucking deserve. So this whole fucking thing now, because Trump's such a colossal fuck up, which everybody already knew, okay, for you not to look at Hillary being like, well, you know, it's like you're looking at two serial killers and Hillary buries the bodies, you know, fucking under her house and Trump leaves them out in the fucking street. Therefore you'd rather have Hillary. I mean, if that's, I don't know, but I can honestly tell you, you know, just my own feelings that she's not a good person. Trump is not a good person. They're two horribly selfish fucking people. And I think a lot of people got caught up in the fact that with Hillary's fucking genitalia and the whole thought of, oh my God, if there's a woman president, what does that mean for fucking women? It's just like every president in my lifetime has been a guy. What is that meant for me as a guy? Nothing. It doesn't mean anything like that's, that's like that disease in my business. When you're a struggling artist and then all of a sudden you get a manager and agent, you start thinking, when I can put my feet up, I don't have to work anymore. Yeah, you do. You're always going to have to work. You know why? Because nobody gives a fuck about you. And I hate to be so fucking bleak, but it's the truth. Nobody gives a shit. What Trump is doing is fucking horrible. It's not surprising. It isn't. In a weird way, it's actually causing a bunch of people to rally and push bats against him. He's so fucking radical that I don't think he's going to survive. He's going to do a bunch of fucked up shit to like the midterm elections and he's going to be so fucking out of hand that people is just going to run all the way to the other side of the boat. That's what always happens the same way after eight years of Bush. Oh, let's all now let's all run over to the guys with the blue ties and the blue bras and you still get fucked and then everybody runs over to the other side. So whatever. I'm trying not to be preachy here, but you kind of get what you deserve if you're going to go through the insanity of continuing to vote for whoever the Democrats or the Republicans are going to give you at that level. And you're not going to have, you're not going to start at least voting for these other people to encourage more people to run outside of those two fucking parties. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. All right, I'm done ranting here. Anyways, he said, I remember on Conan, you said, everything will be the same under Trump. I really hope to God that you are right. Dude, you know something I'm getting so much shit for that cone and thing. You know something next time there's an election like that, you go on the day after the fucking thing and try to find some sort of a fucking angle. You know, like it's my fault the day after the election that I say that that Trump gets in. Okay, everything has been the same under Trump for a guy like me and for most fucking people. If you're Muslim, yeah, you fucked. That absolutely fucking changed. Okay, but they were not showing those people. They were showing a bunch of white women crying. That's what the fuck they were showing. You know, the fucking Planned Parenthood and all of that type of shit. I mean, I don't, I don't fucking know. I mean, like, I think people fucking hate Trump and for whatever reason they want to yell at a comedian. So continue to yell at me. You know, I told you they were both pieces of shit, but you know, after the election, I don't know, I just thought a lot of the screaming and yelling and fucking crying was was a little much. It was a little fucking much. I understand you disappoint, but crying, it's just was so fucking pathetic. All right. You don't like the guy do what the fuck you can to fight back against him. You don't just fucking break down crying like somebody took your toy away. I don't know. Maybe I'm too fucking that on a cynical, but I've gotten so many tweets. You really don't get that fucking shit change when Obama came in, but did it really fucking change? You know what I mean? Because I guess for me actually true change what they would tell me where exactly do my federal income taxes go. Where does that go? If it goes to the fucking IRS and they are not there are private corporation of bankers. They are not connected to the government. Where does that fucking money go? Do the people at the upper echelon of the fucking federal reserve? Do they actually even bother paying taxes considering they're paying themselves? There's a nationwide heroin epidemic that people are saying was created by the pharmaceutical companies was not even fucking brought up. They genetically altered our food, which is evidently so fucked up. They got to try to force other countries to do it and they're fighting back against them because they don't want it. Evidently it's so fucked up that these people they don't even want to be forced to label food as genetically altered because they know people aren't going to buy it. There's all of that shit. All of that shit not only did not change under a president with a blue fucking tie. They continued to get worse. Now when a guy like Trump does something so obvious now everybody's oh my god this guy's out of his fucking mind. Like this last guy, I'm not saying Obama's a bad fucking guy but wasn't he just continuing on with the fucking war mongering and all of that shit? Am I out of my mind? Maybe I'm out of my mind. I don't know. Maybe I'm paranoid over-reacting just like those crazy liberal fucks out there but I really do feel worried. It's one of those gut feelings that simmer deep down into your soul. I mean come on. Even Gorbachev just said the world is preparing for war. Yeah absolutely but I don't think that's because of Donald Trump. I just think he's yet another guy and if they say the world, the world is not Donald Trump. It's a bunch of fucking people. You know what it really is? I don't give in to fucking hissy fits. You don't think clearly. If you're breaking down crying and just screaming that the fucking sky is falling, then you're not going to make any rational decisions. There's a bunch of groups that are going to help out those peoples at the airport that you can give money to. You can do shit like that. You can give money to them and you can pray to God that they're actually going to use it on them and not use expense accounts and go out and buy themselves a fucking Corvette. I don't have any answers but I will say this to people. You've got to stop looking. I don't know. I don't know what it is about stand-up comedians but we for some reason get our feet held to the fire more so than people who are actually in the governmental positions. You want to get mad at me because of what the fuck I said on the day after the fucking election on Conan. By all means do that. How many of those fucking women at that women's fucking rally? How many of them you think actually voted? You know what I mean? All of this fucking outrage. Where were you on election day? There's been people who got busted bitching about Trump. They didn't even fucking vote. You know, but whatever. Give me shit because I joked around when it was like a fucking funeral out here in Hollywood. I was just trying to calm people down. You see a bunch of adults crying on television. Yeah, it's unsettling. This is what it thinks that happened. I think this guy is going to go fucking sideways and then he's going to go so sideways. The midterm elections, what's going to happen? He says he's just going to get a bunch of fucking Democrats in there to maybe level this guy out. But in the meantime, they'll keep deregulating the banks and all of that other shit. In the end of the day, guys like Trump will be able to build a golf course and a fucking pipeline under and over any Native American land that they want to. That's what the fuck they want to do. They're so rich, they find the government to be a nuisance. That's what the fuck you're dealing with. I don't know. That's what I think. All right. So there you go. And once again, I don't read or pay attention. So fuck off and God bless the United States of America. All right. Advice from a new fellow dad. Hey, Billy Boy, congrats to you and the lovely Nia on the new baby. My wife and I welcomed our first son about five weeks ago. People would try to give you too much advice early on, but I've discovered the only secret you need to know about babies is that snaps suck and zippers rule. Babies shit all damn day. So you're taking onesies on and off all day. You don't need the added frustration of fumbling with dozens of snaps to get onesies. So get onesies with zippers. And that's all you really need to know. Grads and go again and go fuck yourself. That's a great one. That's actually great. I'm going to use that because I dealt with snaps all last night. All right. Selfish girl friend advice. Hey, Bill, you're gruff. Hey, Bill, you gruff ginger bollocks. I love the podcast brutally honest. It's great. You're like, Oh, anyway, I got a girl who most of the time is great. She's really hot, really smart, really fun. They always start this way. But every so often, she just seems totally fucking selfish. Most of the time, I totally admire her, admire her ethics slash morals. Important, right? Yeah. So she's human. Most of the time she's cool and every once in a while, she's got this thing, you know, like, well, we celebrated our third anniversary yesterday. By the way, I'm 28. She's 27. We went out to a sushi restaurant for a bit of a celebration. It gets time to pay the bill and I say I'll pay in cash if she transfers me her half. Oh, God, dude, he goes from that moment on the night was all silent treatment till we started arguing. Then it went back to silence till we went to sleep. Yeah, because that's that weird thing where it's like you're celebrating your anniversary. But for some reason, you have to pay. Yeah, that's where all the feminism goes out the fucking window right there. That's always a great sleep when there's an unresolved issue. I'm not even a big believer in the guy just paying, I'm not a big believer in the guy just paying the bill, but okay, on special occasions, it's done. It's the done thing. So I'll go along with it. But I didn't this time because the week before my laptop fucked up and I had to sacrifice my TV, my camera stuff in media center stuff I love to make enough cash to get a decent replacement so I can work slash keep applying for new jobs. Also, I've been between jobs and money's a bit tight right now. In short, it's not been a great week. You think she'd be a bit understanding about it given the circumstances, but no. Hey, you're making all decent points here. Anyways, we had a fight about it. Went quiet again. Then we did what we do sometimes and just let it go rather than either of us having to apologize. That's not good. She says the argument was me not treating her like a lady. I see this is this fucking, I don't know. This is this thing and you can't win as a guy. They want to be treated just like a guy when it's something good is at stake. But when a bill comes, I'm a lady. I say it was about, it was not about me paying for everything. Up till the bill, we were having a great time. I was psyched about a callback for a great job I'd gotten earlier. She was psyched for me. Then she throws a fucking moody, like a fucking infant whose toys been taken away because I want to split the bill. I don't know. Maybe I'm insane. My friend says it was a schoolboy error. I don't think we're kids in a bit of grown up consideration called for this situation. But anyways, have at me if I'm being a moron. Give me both barrels. Dude, all of this shit that you said to me, you need to say to her. I mean, mine is the fuck since some of the other stuff calling her a child. I wouldn't do any of that. But you know, your relationship is going to be a lot easier if you start communicating. So maybe you could have prefaced with, hey, you know, I know we're celebrating our anniversary. I know I'm supposed to pay as a guy, but I'm kind of tight. Can you blah, blah, blah, blah. I don't know. I just, I don't get all of that shit where why the guy has to pay. It's your relationship and the woman never pays. You know, if you notice all the advertising, hey, Valentine's Day is coming up. It's all about what the guy has to get the woman. That's something you don't hear at the fucking woman's march. Just basically how the male female relationship is set up is that the guy should just be constantly showering her with money and gifts because she had the decency to, uh, you know, spend her time with you. It's like her time has value. Yours does not, you know, I don't get it. It's like, hey, I can be fucking do one of the things too. Rather than listen to you talking about your day, same as you got to listen to me. It's not our works. Anyway, cigar recommendation. Hey, they have freckle tits. I have been sober and more importantly off the cigarettes for over a month. Now, congratulations to celebrate this. I decided to treat myself to a nice cigar while I watch your new stand of special on the 31st. Any recommendations on a good smoke? Thanks and go fuck yourself. Um, well, if you're off cigarettes, I don't know why you'd smoke a cigar, but if you're going to then you don't have access to a Cuban cigar. Um, I like those, um, the Aurora emeralds and I like this, um, the David off, Nicole Ragwin that Virzi turned me on to and the Casa Magna, the, uh, the torpedo ones got the two bands. I forget which one it's called. I like those ones. Um, but I kind of quit smoking to be honest with you. I think I'm done with it. I may have the occasional fucking cigar, but, uh, you know, now that I'm getting life insurance and it's just like, all right, I got to get this nicotine out of my system so I can pass the fucking test and everything. When I saw the difference in rates, just even being a passive smoker, I was just like, wow, they obviously know that this means this shit's going to fucking kill you. So I was kind of like, who am I fooling here? If I just clean myself up. So I think I'm kind of done like I'll smoke a cigar. Um, I don't know. I'll smoke a cigar. What are you supposed to? It's an actual moment, you know, as opposed to just being like, Oh man, I always smoke cigars. And now I'm kind of feeling that itch to smoke one. So I'll smoke one. But anyways, I got to get running here. I got to go do Conan. I'll say some more shit probably about politics. And then you guys can give me shit like I'm the one fucking running things. Um, I told you a long time ago, I don't read, uh, that's it. Go fuck yourselves and I'll check in on you on Thursday. Bye. [MUSIC] [MUSIC]
