I was bad Yeah, we just had to make an impromptu cut and since this is a sneak preview like whatever like it does it This one doesn't have to be perfect. Yeah, we had to gain messed up just like on the first episode So yeah, it's a nice start Yeah, but yeah, like like I was saying so Zach how how have you been during this entire hiatus? What's been going on? Just a lot of stupid shit out of Monday and just life shit, you know, AC is going out in the ceiling my crews engines seized But thankfully grabbed but came in clutch gave me the van for free. That's why the van is there Yes, all right. I was just making sure like I did park Like trap somebody in like I wanted go to speedway. We're not a yeah dude 70,000 mile, which would be I'll talk a little bit. Oh a little bit louder. Okay. Can you hear me better? Oh, no, I can't hear you in the I Can't hear you in headphones. Anyway, I'm just looking at your levels. Okay, all right. Well. Yeah 70,000 miles It's 30 years old. That's that's good cuz that that van looks super old It looks like it looks like it looks like the Scooby-Doo van Songs the paint job. Yeah, it's just brown Yeah, is there like rugs in there? Yeah, I knew it, dude. I love bands like that. I'm not even talking shit. I love bands. Look at that only type of van I would drive There's dope except for the mileage that shit sucks. Oh miles per gallon. It's like what do you push on like 14? Maybe good day Not a good day. If it's just like like country driving no stop signs or if I pass a gas station like Might as well I'm the side of the road on the way home Yeah, that's funny Man, but we're glad to be back here As you all can tell This like I said since this is a sneak preview. There's nothing put together for the show We really just wanted to show face. We've been gone for a while And we're not trying to lose the fan base that we have you know, you know what I'm saying and also here's a good thing This is what I didn't want to say before the show Here's a nice little fact. So if you are 20 episodes in Until your podcast you are already You already have more episodes than 90% of most podcasts to come out So we're with this one. We're at we're at 16. All right, so so let's let's go ahead and get To the top 10% of podcast and they will see, you know, how much farther we can take this But I'm glad that we are back in the studio. Yeah Definitely. Oh Zach, what is what is the thing I'll say because we are just gonna talk like talk about a few different things that we saw You know just to give y'all a little bit of entertainment, but this is mostly the show face right now, but What did ludicrous do what is what was the ludicrous? Trevor's favorite rapper of all time thought my favorite rapper of all time, but he's top five top five He's also he's also like like top five celebrity actor Yeah, I'll give him that he's top five in that. Yeah, definitely that You know what I'll probably I'm saying like rapper actor. I'd actually probably say like probably top 10 like rapper like music period Yeah, because Tyrese is a much better actor You know, I'm saying so like like still top 10 with that, but yeah, go ahead with what this he he went to Alaska and Took a water bottle and drunk straight from the glacier water Which if you don't know Glacier water well pretty much any water you find in the wild But especially glacier water because shit's been in there for God knows how long you don't know what kind of Bacteria isn't it it's like if you look under a microscope, it's insane and this dude just straight up put it in his cup and And he drank it cuz it was cold cuz it was cold I wanted glacial water the sound he makes after he drinks it cuz he knows nasty No, apparently it's fantastic while and the headline from people magazine ludicrous feels like Superman after drinking fresh water That's ridiculous because there's gonna be another headline of him having some like Disease from prehistoric time. This was three days ago Dude like hopefully like have we heard anything of ludicrous in the last three days cuz if not he he in his bed he's dancing on TikTok and it was his birthday yesterday, so so he's all right apparently it looks like it All right, man good because he could have got some something you could have got something from that and I'm I don't know. I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised that he drug it like I don't think that he's the smartest person Like I mean who will wear that outfit that he wore and that state farm commercial Where he just had all that leather on within boots who do they add a leather a leather vest on? No, that's hey, that's like that's a dope outfit. No, it's not maybe for ASAP rocky like like that's not a little curse outfit So I don't think he's the smartest person. I still appreciate his talents I Wouldn't come to him for like health advice though after him drinking that water Which is crazy once you make a classic you can't be you can't be told shit. I guess it's glacier water You can't be told shit that is glacier water That is a mess, dude, that's gross Man, I'm also glad that we're back cuz we came back at the perfect time. We're not gonna get into it today But politics are nuts right now Absolutely, dude So we have felon v prosecutor But y'all already know what side I'm leaning though, you know, I was saying like it just doesn't look look here's the thing This is the only thing I'm gonna say about it tonight and hopefully this gets some people thinking about it, all right Okay, I understand Trump is a felon Understand that I understand that Kamala is She is more so I'm thinking for social rights Social justices and freedoms for people, which is good. I'm not against that But I think the thing that we need to be focused on right now is foreign policy Hmm, I understand we have our own domestic things that we have to get through people want to go ahead and establish will be weighed and all of these things like that people want to get their rights for Certain groups want certain things and everything like that in our own country, and I understand that but I think that I Think it was Shane Gillis's uncle He was a racist man though Okay, no, and not even Shane it was a different Shane it was a different Shane Another comedian. Hey, no Mac Hmm nothing you said nothing all right, but uh, no this this racist man He said if you become so open if you become too open-minded your brain will fall out Okay, and I think that We've become so free here and so open to do whatever we want That a lot of things kind of look stupid to other countries, and I just think that we look weak now Okay, and I don't think Kamala Harris and Tim from the window to the walls Uh, I don't think that they look like a strong America Like imagine imagine Kamala Harris sitting down with Putin How do you think that conversation goes? I don't do you even think he listens to her during this conversation. I don't think he listens to anybody that's American Honestly, who does he listen to though? Nobody apparently he listens to Trump Did he? Putin said himself after one of Trump's speeches. I believe three weeks ago he mentioned Trump had mentioned during his speech that If he gets into office and the Ukraine Russia Conflict is still going on. He's gonna get in there and he's gonna stop it immediately Okay, Putin addresses this to his constituents and he says whatever Trump says Whatever Trump says, whatever Trump says, whatever deal he would have I would be primed to sit down and listen to him and and agree with him And and agree with him with it. Yeah, cuz they homies Exactly, I'm sorry. Oh, these are not. No, it is though It is though because you need to be close to your enemy Trump is the only person who walks straight into north He walks straight into North Korea With no secret service. How how player is that? That looks strong. That's all I'm saying. It looks strong and I don't think that the Democratic Democratic Party has been Exuding strength since probably like the first two years of Obama's presidency. They were very strong back then I do agree with that, but right now just on the world stage. I don't think that that would look strong at At all. I feel like if Trump came in We can get some more stopped because during his presidency No new wars were started and I feel like he does have something to do with that because he straight-up told people Hey, if you do this, I'm gonna bomb the shit out of you And he says it exactly like that some some some elements of current of the current wars are his fault though but not I'll give you that need he didn't start any new wars, but some elements of the Ukraine and Israel conflict, I won't call it a war, but Some of it some of the elements are his fault, but we'll get to that on a different day Yeah, we'll definitely get to that on a different day But that that's the only thing I want to stick into people's heads is on the world stage what do we look like and What will we look like if we have a White House? Then consists of Kamala and Tim Walsh and honestly, I like Tim Moss I actually really like him. It's the only thing that I don't like about him If it turns out to be true if this man is lying about his military About his military history He's not I'm just saying if the man is lying about his military history I don't think that they can go any further. It's it's like in it's it's like record that he was there for 24 years and Because he he dropped out both supposedly before the war, but he was going into office That's why he dropped out and he could have left four years earlier, but he didn't Okay. Yeah, I mean, I don't see why he would lie about that. That has to be like public record, right? Yeah, yeah, could be I don't know why he would lie about that. Yeah, but we'll get into this Yeah, you know farther down the campaign trail. We're not gonna waste today with that at all At all But yeah, y'all if y'all go and vote go go ahead and vote Make sure you make sure you vote counts if that's how you think third party vote is a vote for nobody I used to believe in third-party so much man, I vote for Ralph Nader He did yeah, I voted for Ralph Nader. That's crazy. Yeah, dude. I thought I thought he had a good chance I thought he had a good chance RFK had a shot I Had rather I have killed the bear and then put him back in Central Park I'd rather I'd rather RFK run than Kamala. I Honestly, I feel like the way that her her nomination was taken was kind of weird. I just think But I think she should have had to be on the campaign trail just like everybody else and not just like be grandfathered in because Biden dropped out Okay, but if if if Donald drops out There's they have an immediate successor. We don't know who that is, but they know who it is It's the same. It's gonna be the same for both parties. Yeah, but this is I'm saying this is after That's uh, oh, sorry this happened before like the DNC and everything like that though like when they were doing the nomination though behind the scenes they have an immediate successor already, no, I understand that but it didn't happen in that in that form what I'm saying is People were out campaigning Debating against each other and stuff and she didn't have to do that Yeah, and then she still got it that that that's all I'm saying. I feel like you should have to do whatever What else has to do, right? I guess sure, you know, that's pretty much the only thing but do we're getting into it Yeah, right yeah, yeah, let's not get into it Also, you know what let's talk about Tony for a second. All right because Look, I'm not blaming anything on Tony because me and him have been friends for like well over a decade now Yeah, and I know he'll go missing and he'll go missing between phone calls cuz cuz this is what happened yesterday I went to go get some food and I was gonna pick him up We just gonna smoke a blunt on the waiter and then I was gonna drop him off back at home I'm on the phone with him 10 minutes later. I'm at his house I'm knocking on his door. I hear music and all this there's two cars No one comes to the door. I Don't know if he's still in the house, but it's just you you can't you can't Ever find Tony when you need to find them man. Oh shit Like bro. I have two phones right now and I'm very much contemplating just giving him my other phone Like he doesn't even have to pay the bill. Okay, so if you give him the phone What is the over under on him actually picking up the phone still? Oh the over under do you think do you think that's the issue or is it just? No, it's like like no, that's not even it's not really even the issue. You know I'm saying cuz It's not it's not 100% his lack of phone like I feel like if I give him a phone He will feel obligated to answer it though Just out of like he gave me this phone and he called me But you know I'm saying I feel like he like maybe we get him a bit more but still only like Still only like two times out of four instead of like zero. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, so it'll still be a mess But yeah, Tony will go missing he'll just fall off the map and then he'll pop back up Like you just see them yesterday if you gave him two phones He wouldn't have to use his TV remote in his TikToks as a second phone Cuz we found Tony. All right. We we found them. We found what he's doing I don't have tiktok. All right, but Zach found him on tiktok. It hasn't I've been following him for I admit He just always pop up on my feet Which one do you want over the Walmart one? Dude It doesn't matter. It's all it's all crazy. I don't You'll be able to find him on social media though, but you can't find him to have a conversation And this is and this is what Tony's been doing. All right. Y'all make sure y'all subscribe over to him Well, what is it? Pearly? Pearly and tiktok all caps P. R. O. L. apostrophe Yeah, Pearly and tiktok man. Like this is what he's been doing. Go ahead and play the video Yeah, I was just calling cuz you know the battery my car went out and I was trying to see how much your batteries cost How much of batteries cost? I'm sorry. This is not Murray. So how does one get a call those guys? Yeah, yeah, yeah, but on your website I don't even know if I open any more website. So you know, what's over that? I don't know if you're here with me, sir, but this is not Murray's Auto Zone Who goes to Murphy's? I don't know. I know there was a Murphy's I thought they were like clothes or something I thought he should have said like O'Reilly's or something like that advanced auto parts There's something like but Murray's apparently Tony is making tiktok They might give him another one real quick like like we want to let's drive this point off this one. So Yeah, which one is negative? This is gonna be your last time calling my phone Crazy man, where is he getting these situations from? Is he living his tiktok? Hey, bro There's gotta be hey has to be there's there's a line where that shit intersects 100% because Tony lives a weird life He lives a different life, so some of that's it either happened around him Or happened to him like his uncle with this Friday's uncle calling Walmart Yeah, I don't know why you got to do that phone for that that voice for the associate But that's crazy hopefully next time we hear We got Tony with us, so we can do that. Uh, we can do Tony's question because I love that segment I love that segment of our show because he has the weirdest fucking questions Yeah, but it's always thought provoking at the same time. It's like why did you think of that and also like thank you of thinking of this Like it would like we just throw the one in there that we can't Put on there. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I have the one question that is like Nick We can't talk about that why would you even think of that? Why would you think that we were allowed to do that? Well, yeah, hey Tony I know you listening to this show right now - since it's gonna pop up on your feet So make sure you answer the phone next time brother because because we we we we back at it, bro season - we are We're gonna keep playing your TikToks It's just gonna be an hour every time I think he not gonna care cuz he like promotion. Yeah promo promo promo. Hey, he let that shit I don't get it man. Is this Walmart? All right, we're about to wrap it up, but um before we get out of here we kind of want to both of us want to plant the seeds if you will of Season two and what we want for the future plant the seeds for German nation. Yes German nation Is that the first thing that happened? Oh, man. I ain't I passed that class. I don't remember nothing Hey, um Trevor you want to speak to what you want first? Well, man, what you hope for hopefully hopefully we get back on a tight schedule hmm I'll say we we had a down pack pretty much in the middle of our last season. Yeah, but uh you know life start hitting and Episodes are coming out a bit later and stuff. So I want to try to be sure to get out one every week at least Just so we can keep the algorithm in our favor we can keep The fans who have been listening we can keep giving them content, you know as you know Everybody needs content for show. So we want to Make sure that we're dropping that for you all and also Thinking about this now Having a third is always good. Tony is our third. Yeah, all right. Tony's our third 100% But that just showed us that more voices, you know You know, it keeps the conversation going. So, you know every now and then even you know You know just people we don't even know like like I don't even care dude like I really just want I want guests like and it doesn't even have to be like multiple people because Because you knew how I actually wanted to run the show. I wanted I wanted one of those shows with like Ruling panel of guests and stuff like that would be mad misogynistic to random women. No, no, that's not what I Know what I what I wanted was to a You know just have like like a panel show, you know, I'm saying but We're gonna be reaching out to different people to try to get some guests on the show We can talk about whatever - like a doesn't matter Whatever the topic is Also want to get more engagement Want to get more engagement with the people who do listen to the show Need some more people to follow the Twitter because that's where I'm gonna be answering any questions that anyone has and if anybody Has any ideas and that's where you can reach me to try to hop on the show like my Instagram and Snapchat only go so far but Yeah, definitely want people on the show At least for this season every now and then I feel like that'll spark conversation more in the community, you know if people from the community are actually able to Engage with us in discourse, you know what I mean? Yeah, and even if like you want to call in to like for a specific conversation Or something, you know, I'm sure Trevor could set it up with whoever wants to join in Because I don't be talking to people Yeah Yeah, I gotta be I gotta be the media media guy for these things like like Zac is running our Facebook though Yeah, and whatever which which aren't really up yet because because we haven't done shorts. We don't have a camera Shorts shorts shorts. That's what we need to start doing YouTube shorts and stuff like that camera Yeah, hopefully video content comes out some time before the end of season two definitely because it would be nice I'm ready to start throwing money at stuff. That's that that's where I am Like I'm not in the best position now to do it since I'm not working for a month, but I'm so ready to start throwing money at It just definitely we need just so we can get it off the ground. Well, we're already off the ground But so we can get it, you know further off the further from the ground. Yeah, I Yeah, what about you? I? want two things I want and these can coincide with each other kind of I want a consistent and however consistent it is is you know up to interpretation but a mid a midweek like a Little episode doesn't have to be a full one and it doesn't even have to be like what we usually talk about but something Something to break up the monotony. Oh, so some like our yeah, like our idea for the Wednesday. Yeah, like the car pod that we had I still like that idea. Yeah, just being in different places recorded I do like that idea as well Yeah, and it'll be that segment will be a lot better once we have video to And if you're listening echo, that would be a perfect time for you to jump in Yeah Not that echo, but the person the person echo echo knows that we're talking to them But yeah, I Don't really have anything else. I think you hit on everything that I wanted but Yeah, man, so it mainly just sounds like we we need that consistency now. Mm-hmm. We we got the idea together. We're just We just got to throw the polish on now, man I'll say we're already more than halfway halfway there to the top 10 percent, right? So Like I said everybody Stay tuned And go ahead Zach hit him without her. It's been a minute. Let's see if you remember how to Everything you got a plug Remember to follow all the socials, you know be active on all the socials Facebook Instagram Twitter TikTok when I get that up, you know what in it and it's actually been a while So let's let's go ahead and try to give them the names of a few of these things here Twitter make sure to follow on Twitter at Zach in black pod.
