It's one of you. So could have been a could have been a wise guys, but it's like I swear to God. Hey, I forgot. Okay. You talked to a lot cooler people in me. So no, dude. No, you're cool to talk to because you actually want to listen and are nice. And that's way cooler than people. I feel like I have to like, I'm like the whole time when I could feel like I'm auditioning. Yeah, I know. I get that feeling a lot talking to people here and I get very exhausting. Shout out Brian Higgins. I haven't even had a conversation with him yet. So now Brian, Brian is just a little prickly, but I like Brian. He's a nice dude. Yeah. He seems. Yeah. No. Shout out Brian. Yeah, I'll do a stupid intro. So welcome to a new episode of Let's Get Fired. I'm Drew Simon joined by Quinn Johnson. And then today we got Jack dude. Is it Cropper? Cropper. Cropper. Okay. Nailed it. Jack Cropper. Local comedian just started comedy. How long ago? Four months ago. Nice. How you liking it? Loving it. Yeah. It's your favorite thing. What's my favorite thing? No, I said, is it your favorite thing? Absolutely. Yeah. You've been in the mic's heart. I like that when there's new people who start and they love going to Mike's. No, I love that shit. Because there's like so many people have been doing it for years who you see and they're like, I just do wise guys. Yeah, they don't get that. They don't go to the mics. And then it's true. We just doesn't go to. Yeah, I just don't go to any mics. Yeah, you believe unless he opens, we used to have all these conversations about it. We're like, yeah, dude, it's all about going to the mics and hitting them and Drew's like, yeah, that's what I do. And then when I moved back here, never saw you and saw like, yeah, did you did you do more mics before you started this delivery job? Yeah, I did more like, and I used to keep track of them. So like in 2022, I got on stage 210 times. Really? Yeah. So I was like keeping track and I want to get out more. Hopefully I will be done with this. I'm going to have to cut this out. I have some fun. I won't listen. But let's get fired, dude. I mean, hopefully, hopefully I have a different. I don't want to have to do like 60 hours a week, which right now it's actually tough. It's like light. We're not doing that many hours. But then it's like, they're cutting our hours. So then there's days where like, I get off at like four or three 30. And the mic starts at like seven and my work is in Salt Lake. So I'm like, see, what am I going to do? Like hang out, hang out here for five hours until the mic starts. Yeah, dude, you just do that. You bring bring your laptop, you work on the work. It's like Tuesday. I'm like, okay, well, I guess I'm not going to wise guys. I'm going to go to a provo and work out Oz's mic at Java. No, I haven't been to that one. I haven't been to die. I haven't been to die. I haven't been to die. How many people are going to that? Oh, that mic, it's just me and Oz. Really? There's no BYU students or anything? No one else. And there's like audience is like BYU students drink coffee. And so it's like cool. BYU students. Yeah, the cool ones. Yeah, I like it. Yeah. So it's a weird mic, but it's a it's not bad. It's also it's it's stage time. Yeah, no, it's no, it's true. It's just I don't see any of the Salt Lake mics. You don't go to any of them. No, dude. Well, I mean, I haven't been to any in like a few weeks, but also do last time I was at one. I didn't see you there. Yeah, but I go to all the other ones. Okay. Or maybe it wasn't just that week, but well, I go to them. I'll be there. I'm just looking around next to next week. I'll hit them all. Sure. Also, I just don't hit your mic. That's at like 10 o'clock at night. And then you're like, do you even go to any mics? No, no, 30. No, 30. It's not even that it's I go to all the mics. I don't see it. Wait, it's Wednesday, nine, 30, 10, 10, sign up on nine, 30. Okay, sign ups at nine, 30, sorry. Well, maybe, you know, next week, I'll just bite the bullet and do your mic. This is what this is what this whole thing is. It just biting the bullet and then it's saying, I'm just not going to get a lot of sleep tonight. Crash my trucks the next day. Yeah, that's open my comedy. All right, let's do it. Yeah, I'll go to your mic next week. You know, you got to do you got to get out of the shell and then you've been a hermit. Yeah, I've been hiding under this podcast for a few weeks. Come on, we can do it. Yeah. Anyways, Jack, yes, sir. This is essentially a job interview for what job? We're not sure, but I'm ready. I'm ready. We're going to ask you a bunch of questions. And it's not like we're looking for like, you're just a great employee. Like, you know, like, you know, you just always did your job well. That's like, that's like, that's like what Jimmy was saying. And we're like, this is fucking stupid and boring. We want like, but also like, don't lie about crazy shit you've done. Like we want, we want honesty. Don't like am I try to ham it up? It's like, just like, we like, we just want to learn about you. And the, the, the dumber that is the stupider it is, the more racist it is, the better, you know, in the eyes of this interview. So that's it. So yeah. So at the end, we'll let you know if you've, if, yeah, we know if you're hired or fired. Yeah. Or we hire you then fire you. Yeah. Which we did a Cheyenne. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, so what, what do you do right now? I'm kind of in in between jobs, but I'm a mechanic by trade. That's what I do. I've been a mechanic for four years. Yeah. Like the Jiffy Lube. I started at Jiffy Lube and then I've been at a shop. So I did Jiffy Lube for like three years. It's a stay automotive, shut out, stay at automotive, go give him some business. So if I swing by you, can you be like a eight? You know, here's the list. If I'm there, I haven't really been there in a few weeks. So you haven't been at your job? No, I haven't. Why? Yeah. I've had some, some stuff going on in life and they were like, Hey, just take, take a month off. Okay. I'm all dying. Um, I almost, no, you know, it's a, Hey, you're fine. You walked in earlier and you're like, I'm not, now I'm doing a drinking or anything. Yeah. Family member get arrested. I, I had a really rough Valentine's day. I kind of had a domestic violence. Um, no, it was just me, myself and I, but yeah, oh, yeah. The really fun kind. Yeah. I know like how I felt during the Portland winter. Yeah. And you're like, yeah, I've seen the sun in six months. So then you can start to get dark. Yeah. What are those? Yeah. Yeah. One of those cool dark, real self-loathing moss. I can't make it work. And he's like, yeah, just be safe. Yeah. And so, Hey, so essentially you form it's into comedy. You already tried to, you know, have a good time. Well, this is it. This is, this is the beginning part of it now. This is the beginning of all been there. Yeah. I have been doing better at the open mics ever since the haven. So I think it's a, you just need a little bit of that in your life. It is kind of crazy with the funniest people are the most fucked up. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But like people don't expect me to be all fucked up and then they talk me for like an hour and they're like, okay, yeah, no, it makes more sense. No, you just got, you're just, you're the more tragic kind, which is super nice guy, fun to talk to, but you don't like yourself. It's, you know, I was, I was destined to be this. I was, I'm a cancer. I'm born a cancer. So, okay, just tragic life. All sad and yeah. Okay. So that's what you're currently, that's your current job is a mechanic working on myself. Yeah. We're working. Yeah. We'll see if we're going to hire you as our mechanic. Okay. Perfect. Yeah. So what's the first job you ever had? A snow cone check. I worked at the barn, snow cone. Yeah. The barn by days market. I didn't know where this is. You shouldn't, uh, Brighton Crieser and Brandon Bridgewater. Okay. Those, those guys who originally owned it. I, I know there was like a college kid who would pay me like way less than what I worked. Yeah. And he'd pay, he would drop off an envelope that he wrote like, was he kind of balding? He had, he had dark hair. That's all I remember. Okay. He was, he was really young. I didn't, I didn't know the owner. Okay. I didn't know the owner. Okay. I just think I worked there. This is crazy. This is crazy. Dude, this is like a rite of passage and pro. Yeah. I worked at the barn because I remember when my friends like found that barn, they like, they got it. And then I worked there. There was one day where like, I lost like my sense of smell for like a week and like they were gone. And when he came back, he's like, dude, did you even clean this one? So like, I couldn't tell it smelled bad. Hey, wait a minute. Dude, that place was just, I mean, they just put me up for like 10 hours. They called it a maverick shift to make it sound. Oh, yeah. You're here a strong guy for 10 hours alone. And I'd have to like put the sign up and go into days and take a piss and do a maverick shift. You're like, I am top guy. Yeah, exactly. Put some real quick shout out the days. Shout out to days market. I love days market. Dude. Yeah. They, they, you only would go there for like lunch and they don't like let you bring your backpacks in there. Yeah. That's right. My friends, the reason that happened. So my, I had a buddy who also stole stuff from days. Yeah. What can you do? He went to court over a symphony bar, just one symphony bar. It took him to court. Yeah. What? Maybe not shout out to days. That's crazy. Yeah. They remodeled. It looks a lot better now. No, it's nice. And they're never going to go into the court for one. The candy bar. Well, they were sick of it. They were sick of all that. So no one else stole it multiple times. I'm sure he had like, I don't know, I just remember it because he of the court situation. That was the only like reason I learned about him stealing that. But I know that people have been stealing shit the whole time I've been out of space. Yeah. So of course. So they wanted to prove a point and people stop stealing. Have you ever shot before? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Until last time. Years ago, I don't, oh, wait, we, me and my ex stole a really big, nice cooler for like camping. It was like $80. Oh, yeah. And they forgot to ring it up. We were in the actual aisle. Yeah. And it was in our cart. Yeah. And so I, and she was like, I can't, I was like, shut up. And we just walked out the store. Yeah. I was like, don't say anything until we get to the car. Yeah. That's what we did. My wife did that with a microwave at Walmart. Yeah. Yeah. It was Walmart. Yeah. It was Walmart. Yeah, dude. It's just what you do, you know, you just walk out and you say, you know, what I'm gonna mean to. And then also coolers are also great to steal shit. And because I bought a cooler ones and I just put like clothes in there and then just, just rung it up with the self check out target. What are they going to do? Open it up. Oh, I forgot. I put all the clothes in there. Sorry. Like, but that's wild. Don't shout out to the ball. Sorry. Yeah. This is all these plan B pills. Like that. I'm just knocking up. Hey, at one time, I was a door dasher and I had one for Walgreens and this person, they ordered gummy bears and plan B. Can you even do that through door dash? Yeah, you can do it through door dash. But they were all out of plan B. So I just had to deliver them their gummy bears. How funny is that? Like, imagine, so you know, how when you order something from Walgreens or 7/11 on door dash, it's like, if this isn't in stock, like, what are the other? It's like, what if plan B, like, this is in stock. Handgun. Yeah. No, dude, that's fucking, that's, I love that. That's a door dash, like a TV. I was, I was like, at my job, I was like, at the valet, I was just gonna get those door dash rolls up and like, pull out a TV. He's like, guys, door dash. I was like, you can order me a TV. Dude, I don't, I'm not as concerned as that you can door dash a TV. And why? Why in the hell would you door dash a TV? It's like, you ever been there? I'm like, I'm afraid of people. I'm afraid of people eating my fries out of my door dash order. Imagine breaking your TV. You're about to black be black out drunk. You can't drive. They need a TV. My wife was door dashing and had an order at Petco and it was a bag of live crickets. Oh my god. This is a feed in a guan. It doesn't tell you what it is until you get there. Oh, like, it's not like she accepted it and was like live crickets. Cool. She was, she was picking up the order. She just was like, oh, I'm gonna, yeah, I'll go get someone's dog food for them. Yeah. And then she gets there and they're like, it's these live crickets. They're all moving around and she's like, she said that she almost like threw up while driving. Did you do the order? She did it. We did it. Good. I hope she got a good review. Yeah. That's pretty sick. But anyways, dude, the barn. Look at us. Yeah, that's pretty sick. That's the first time that's happened. So you just made snow cones. Yeah, I made snow cones. I got a, I got a girl's number from the barn. Did you get anything like that? Yeah, I kissed her and got mono. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Holly. I'll say her first name. Holly, she was really cute, but gave me mono. Holly Jay. I got mono in high school from sharing water bottles and football. So not as cool, but, you know, it's the same, same effect, but definitely a lot more degrading. Yeah. You know, you just got to get it like, I mean, the bros. Yeah. We're meeting like four guys on the team. We're not just chilling out, just drinking water together. Is that the gas thing you think you've ever done? Is getting mono films. It's up there. I don't mean to ask the question. No, that was good. That was really great. That's a great question. We should be asking that. I've never asked you that, but either. So I don't even know what your answer is. Yeah. No, what's the gas thing? I like seriously inquired about getting a Prius once. Come on. Like, what's the guy? Yeah. 2024. Not like metaphorically. No, no, no. Yeah. This is a fun answer, but the gas thing is like, my buddy in high school, like when I just crash at his place, there wasn't like any like additional places for me to crash, so we would just share a bed. But that is like the gas thing. Would you see, pull the pole, hold a hole? Would you do? Hold a hole? No, dude. We were both like strapping to each side of the bed. Oh, yeah. We're like, what size of bed is it? It was like a, I think it was like a queen. Okay. It's probably a fool. You're just trying hard for us to not know. No, it's a twin. Yeah. Yeah. Definitely. It's like it's a, it was a vicious. No. Okay. Yeah. This sounds worse. I am backtracking. It was actually a king, because it was bigger than my bed. Okay. It was bigger than my bed. Sure. But you still were like scrambling for space. But yes. Yeah, I know, because you know, we're both like really like homophobic teenagers. That isn't really, that doesn't, sometimes it's the recipe. No, no, that is. Yeah. There's the guys who are like overtly homophobic that like, you know, they bully gay kids like we never would bully a gay kid. We were just scared of gay people. No, you're just scared. Like actually homophobia. That's like pure homophobia. It's an actual phobia. I see a gay person and I would feel terror in my heart. It wasn't that I didn't want to go push them down the stairs and be like, fuck you, faggot. Like I would, it would be better if you did, if you put, like just like the, the instinctual fear is like, yeah, it is so funny, though, to be afraid of a gay guy. Like, oh, no, no, no, but like my, you know, Clayton, his, Clayton, I don't think you know them. They had Clayton, you know, I'd come right. He's actually going to come here and before the mic. So you'll see Clayton tonight, but like in high school, he was actually the kind of homophobe who was like, yeah, fuck you, faggot. And just like, what do you actually like abuse? He like punched a gay kid in high school. But then it like after high school is like, I'm bi. Okay. Yeah. So, you know, it's the classic. It's the classic one, too. Yeah. But no, what about you, Jack? What about me? What's the case? Yeah, you were the Marines. I guess, you know, being, in all honesty, I'm very closeted by sexual. We've talked about this. Yeah. Yeah. Very closet on Monday. Yeah. Very closeted by sexual. Yeah. Well, uh, remind us, you know, so what's the, yeah, what's the case thing you've done? Yeah, sex with a guy. As well. That's, that's, you know, that qualifies. But guess what? Somehow I don't use it. I feel like it's more, it's still more gay, just from how cagey you were to talk about it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Because you just went use like this. I just fucked the guy. So what I mean, that's, that's who I am, respectable. You know, but, you know, well, I'm, I'm trying to think and like, I haven't, I mean, I was a Mormon missionary. So that might be the, don't be a stuff going, yeah. Yeah. So that might be the gayest thing I've ever done. Um, we were like talking to, was it Sydney who was like, we talked to someone recently, they're like, yeah, the beds were always pushed together. I said, no, that was you. I said that. Yeah. Geez. Yeah. They pushed the, we never had beds pushed together. That was like a lot of the apartments had that. And then it was when I was in that was like, the beds weren't like the bed frames weren't touching, but a lot of them were pushed together. Yeah. No, like, I remember like on my mission, someone's like, I wonder who here is like, closeted gay. And I was like, there's no gay guys here. And then like, after our missions, like there's 10 of them. I'm like, geez, like, we were friends, dude, like, a lot more just thought you were going to save space. Finally, I'm away from all the things I'm afraid of. No, that's fucking sick though. Um, okay. No, that's like that. It's a good answer, Jack. Yeah. Is that the Marines? No, this was after the Marine Corps. Yeah. I was more of a Navy story. Yeah. Definitely. Definitely. Um, no, they're the Navy. Okay. So after the barn, what'd you do? Man, I worked, you know, I did, what is it, the, the take and bake pizza place, the pop Murphy's office in the same parking lot in the same parking lot. I got, I got assaulted at that job. That was fun. You got assaulted? Yeah. By this like 70 pound kid trying to join the Army, he jumped on my back and I was like, it was really fun. Over what? Yeah, because I said a joke. I said a joke and he didn't like it. Um, I don't remember what the joke is when you realize like, I need to be calling this is like calling. I really, really want to. Yeah. I really want to say jokes and upset people. Wait, my words of power. Yeah. I said some joke that someone else thought found funny and he didn't like that we were laughing at it. Um, so he, he, the watching the video back was the best thing in my life because he, he jumps like from the kitchen to the line where we make the pizzas onto my back. Wait, was he a coworker? He was a coworker. Oh my God. Hell yeah. I'm not tired. Uh, he got, dude, I think he got like written up and, and suspended and they just didn't come back or something because it wasn't, you know, he didn't like punch me. He just jumped on my back and I, I like shook him off because I was like taller and, and back. Stronger and maybe not stronger. I was a weakling, but um, he was weaker than me for sure. And I, I kind of just shrugged him off and was like, what the? So I wasn't like hurt. I was just like, what the hell just happened. We watched it back and it was like the funniest thing. He just like a wombat just was the right animal joke. It was just something, I think it was something about like hitting, I don't know, like hitting women, getting in a fight with like a, someone in the military or like, I think I was dogging on, you know, like masculine in general. Okay. And he didn't like that. He was filled with toxic masculinity. Yeah. That's what, yeah. It is the funniest thing when I did flips out for me like, Oh, I'm tough. Yeah. You know, dude, that's, that's the best way to prove that your tough is to get really emotional about it. Yeah. I like that. No, and then no, dude, it's fucking sick. So that's, well, besides that, have you been in a fight before? Yeah, many fights. Yeah. Many. Whoa. Not like, no, not many street fights. I'm not a very, uh, I like, I do well in confrontation, but I don't ever seek it out. Yeah. I'm a very big diffuser. But, um, I've gotten like, we did fight nights, you know, in the Marine Corps, you just get in fights all the time because you're always just buttonheads and you're, the bunch of egos are coming out. You're all 18 through 21, not, you know, you know, and so like someone threw a rock at my head and we tussled over that. They beat my shit. Like I got my shit kicked in a lot in infantry training. Wow. Um, so tough me up now. Yeah. So now, I've never been in a fight. Yeah, dude. You want to try it? We can do it right now here on the podcast. I'll take it easy. We need content. Dude, I've been in a fight since I was like nine. Really? Yeah. You should do it. I think, I think everyone should know how to handle themselves in that because it's a very tense. You, you kind of lose, you know, they say, see red. It's like, you don't know what that feels like. And so you can really lose, um, control in those moments if you're not used to it. Fun stuff. Uh, so, okay. So you got a little taste at pop and Murphy. What would, like, you have all these, like little, like, like indicators, like these little, like, uh, big moments, like building up to what you're going to be, you know, like this tries to find your back of pop and Murphy's, who did you know it was going to be? That's where you were going towards, right? Yeah. More that was more than where that's pop of Murphy. What was next? Uh, Cinnamark. Cinnamark was next. Oh, yeah. The one next riverwood mall. Uh, not riverwood, the university. Oh, I love that one. That one's, that one's the better one. Yeah. That one's sick. That's where Colin caught pedophile. Yeah. I remember, I remember watching that he were walking around the five guys. I was like, Hey, I used to work here. That's what it is. Dude, shout out to the five guys. That five guys is a great location. Dude, I can't play. There's pedophiles here. Yeah. Oh, can you can't believe it? Oh, oh my God. Exit the Costco. Yeah. No, that's sick. Uh, okay. How was that? Cinnamark was fun. I, I just, I just fucked around. I, I think I, uh, I, I tried writing a bit about this. It didn't work on stage, but it is a funny story. I, um, I got caught making out with Caitlin behind the popcorn kernels, ooh, restored the, because I was about to ship off the boot camp. This is the job I had right before I shipped off. And, uh, like three weeks before I go, I really said fuck it. I didn't care about my job. I was just there because it was a social situation. So I just like to go fuck around with my friends. Yeah. We're, we're making out and this, this prick of a girl, she comes around and she's like, Oh my God. And goes right to the, not the manager, the general manager of the whole. Oh, wow. And, um, and she gets written up and she texts me and she texts me that night. She's like, Hey, I got written up, um, like careful or whatever. And I go into work freaking out. And the general manager pulls me into his office. I was like, Oh, I'm going to get like a bad review, you know, and, uh, he's like, Hey, just, you know, um, like, I respect you for going into the Marine Corps. Uh, just let me know whenever you want to stop working. Dude, that's sick. He was like, I hate it when women are whores, but I'm going to bring it up. If a hero does it. Oh my God. He just swept it into the rug for him. Dude, he's like, he might die. Exactly. Yeah. He knew I was going in the infantry. So he's like, whatever day. That's so funny. He's also like, honestly, I never had the balls to do. You just did. Yeah. I've won. Yeah. I came back to that theater after I was done with bootcamp because I was in the reserve. So I came back when I was done with my training and I took a girl there on a date and was making out with her in the back of the theater while we were watching mid 90s, which is a great movie. Um, and I come out and my, my old managers like, Oh, how'd you like it? I was like, Oh, it was a good movie. He's like, yeah, I walked in there. There's just some teenagers just macking on each other in the back. I was like, man, that's wild. These kids just keep happening. It's fucked, dude. So you got to really crack down on that, man. So you're from Provo, like super Mormon family. Oh, yeah. Yeah. My dad was a, how bummed were they that you were going to the Marines and not on a mission? Um, they thought, so when you join the military, if you join the reserves, there's an option to do a tier religious, uh, leave after your training. So you join the, you go through bootcamp, your secondary school, and then you go leave on your mission, whether that's Catholic or Mormon or whatever. And, uh, I was going, I signed up under that option. Um, that was the only reason I was in the reserves. I would have been active duty, but I, I realized that the church is kind of full of shit. Um, as I was going through the six months of training and, uh, I told my parents, I was like, Hey, I, I don't want to do a mission. Wasn't six months of training, like your first time out? Yes. Yeah. The first time I've seen the world and you're like, well, I didn't know that I genuinely, one through 18 or zero through 18, I genuinely had no idea that people could be happy outside of the church. I didn't know that was a possibility. And I was like, oh, they're way happier. No, it's like, you're like, I would add that similar thought where you're like, you're like, I'm like watching a video of this guy's like an atheist. He's like, so what about you're afraid about when you die? Like, how does that affect the way you live your life? He's like, well, if this is the only life I have, I just lived as best I can. And I was like, it's a pretty good answer. Yeah. I was like, it's actually, you have to waver your, your RDS. I was like, wait, you just, you still just have to just live a good life. Like, oh, no, but, uh, I got recruited by, uh, uh, military dude. He just like called my phone and I was like, how do I do that? I was asleep. And I was like, oh, yeah, I'll be there at two o'clock. And then I, and then I hung up and I was like, what the fuck did I agree to? So I drove out there and I had like, break up with them. Yeah. I was like, I'm sorry. I'm, I'm going on a mission. I can't do anything. And he was like, really? I was like, yeah, I'm sorry, man. Like, it just, I'm like, this must be a tough for cruting ground. Like all these 18 year olds are going on missions. Like, I'm sorry. And he's like, God, dude, that sucked. I hated that. Yeah, dude. Next we don't go. I graduated high school on 2011. So we could like, there were like kids in my class telling recruiters that they were gay just to get them to stop talking. Yeah. I don't think that works anymore. That doesn't work anymore. Like, don't ask, don't talk to them. Like it was all like, yeah, sorry. I'm gay. They're like, Oh, shit. He told. Fuck. No, the new excuses I'm autistic, then they, then they leave you alone. No, no, no, no, that's not going to work for long. That's not going to work for long. Work the drones. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. We need people with no remorse, but no emotionally intelligence. Yeah, everyone in that wedding was bad. They were so AI. They weren't real. No, the enders game is just going to be a real thing in the future. Oh, for sure. Oh, 100%. Yeah, I get to bring up. Anyways, player one, here we come. And he's going to be streaming on Twitch while doing it. You know what Twitch is? Yeah, that's where you watch people play video games. There you go. I always have a double check. I thought he was going to say that's where you like watch girl strip or something. He knows who Amaranth is. Yeah. You see what, you know, this just use the cool girls, cool them Amaranth. Oh, I have no idea. Yeah, those like Jews like, I watch sniper wolf all the time. Who's Amaranth? Yeah, I've never heard of snipe. Yeah, Pokemon. Pokemon. I only watch it for her cookies, dude. Pokemon. I couldn't. Is that Pokemon? Is the girl they? Pokemon. Oh, she's currently selling cookies for $28. And she's defending it. She's like, Oh my God. It's worth it. And she's like, you guys are all while you guys are all being broke and not buying them. Yeah, that's horrible. I hate being culturally out of things. Well, it's how that's been like your whole life that has been. You gotta you gotta lean into it. You gotta like be like, yeah, I don't know what that is because it's gay. That's gay and retarded. That's why I don't. And you're like, that's why you don't like, like, especially for like a sports thing. You're like, that's why you don't like formula one. You're like, yeah, yeah, it's formula one formula one. Are you in a formula one? I've been in a formula for over 10 years. Because I'm my favorite sport. It is. We need to talk after this. You should. It is. Do you want to just like get off the pod and kiss or something? We can definitely because I can't talk to any brothers. I can't talk any one about formula one. Really? I will not stop talking. It's me and my best friend. We can talk about formula one. And that's the only person I know who doesn't do it as me. But like, are you ready for the repeat of last year this season? Oh, yeah, it's already 30 flashback. But he Max could go to Mercedes. He's who that Max was to happen. No, he's not going to. There's no way now there. We've talked after this. There's now there's not zero chance that he could go to Mercedes. Really? Because of his dad. Oh, well, his dad has ran his career. His whole life. No, but yeah, because his dad fucking hates Christian Horner. And like, there was a man. I didn't know about this. Dude, I know like they're both hard headed. I didn't talk after this because it's like, literally like real housewives on wheels. Like it is really fucking insane. You drive to survive is going to eat this shit. It's like, it's like every time I think the story can't get crazy or gets crazier. Oh my God. It's like, it's like, it's that insane. Like the Red Bull team, the dominance that they have could be destroyed with within because that's all this bad. Yeah. And for seven is carrying that team right now. So you have to get a formula one, dude. Well, we're going to do like a weekly, like sports podcast. So if you do, it's going to have one. I'm just going to get me into F one. Yeah. I'm going to try Yemen to hockey. Hockey is so fun. I just started getting into it. It is so fun to watch. I didn't know they just let him fight. The NHL playoffs is let him finish. NHL playoffs is the best time to get into the best playoffs. Yeah, for sure. It's the game seven and hockey is the most exciting. Yeah. But any who wins the last time you said the N word. I actually said it to Colin on his birthday. That was the last time. That's a great answer. What was his birthday? Heartwarming. Oh, it was like a month or two ago. Hard R a. It was a hard R for sure. I mean, it was, you know, I was. What do you want me to say? Yeah, which is it was not for me. It was not for my entertainment. It was a birthday. That's the best. Yeah, I wouldn't have said that. But dude, that's for Colin. And that has to be like, I wonder how many of those he gets on his birthday. And he I know the way he reacted to me. Maybe not many because he was very, very grateful. There is a form of trust that like if someone says something racist to you and you're like, like, like, when you say everything to him, like, it's only no, he trusts me. Yeah, you know, because yeah, it's a different level of love now. Jimmy and I have talked like if if one of us has bad blood with each other, we've made a pact that we can't share our DMS or texts. Okay. Yeah. All right. Well, there's like, that might be gay or then fucking a guy. No, you know, just because I don't, you know, it's it's probably get us both thrown in Guantanamo. You have to show me what Jimmy's saying because I just want to see some crazy shit. I just want to see the wild Jimmy Boy. Oh, that does not match his personality. I know that's why it's so good. Yeah, he's just trying to impress you. He's like, I'll say it, dude. Oh, dude, let's talk about the border. Let's talk about these migrants. Anyways, so you went to the military. Well, you don't want to see so try to follow this timeline. Yeah. You went to the reserves and then you're like, I don't believe in church anymore. Told your parents that. Yeah. And then what did you after that? Well, my dad, who was a bishop, he actually respected me for not doing the mission and being honest about it instead of just like, you know, and my mom cried. Oh, you're not doing what Quinn did. Yeah. So what did Quinn do? Well, I realized I didn't believe in it when I was on my mission. Oh, so you went in, like, no, I went in being like, yeah, you know, like all her. I wasn't like, I wasn't like the most gung-ho. I was still like, I don't know. I was like, I was a confused kid, but I was like, let's do it. Like, like, you know, and but then when I was out there, I was like, I fucking hate this. And then that's what I was the most gung-ho for like, for your mission. Yeah, two years didn't stop. Like, I was like, God, I want to I want to I think what I hated you. Oh, well, I definitely like. So I like loosened up. So like, I was still like, fun, but like, there were definitely like, we can't we got into like this with the Sydney, but there was like, Game of Thrones, like politics and the mission, where it was like half the mission, these guys were like, we're apostates and they just broke all the rules. Like, oh, it was a half the whole half and the other half was like, we're obedient, but then like, I was obedient, but I was like friends with all the apostates. Right. And so like, those were the bridge. Those were like the ones that I got along with. But then like, I fucked someone. I fucked one of them over. Like, he confessed all those things to me on a phone call and I recorded it and sent it to the tomb leaders. So like, that's how that's how good and shit. That's how good of friends I was good. God, dude, what a mission president. He got called to like be a because I was in Guatemala, like their real country in some of the areas. There was like, no one, like you have church, like in a small room like this. Really? Yeah. And so like, there was no like, priesthood leadership. So this guy who was like, the head of like the apostates got sent to this area where he was going to be the branch president. Oh, really? Yeah. I was like, oh, dude, we can't look that guy, be a real branch president. Okay. Yeah. Accepting tithing and listening to people's sexual sins. Like, we can't. Yeah. And so yeah, he's just chuckling the crazy nice. It's pretty sad. Okay. So you're like, I don't believe in this debt. It's like, not bad. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Sweet. Thanks for telling me. And then would you do that? I didn't work for a while. And then I got a job at Clearlink. Oh, I remember that. I was selling a frontier. That's the one that's like, by the last building. No, it's the one, you know, University Mall, they, that big glass building. Yeah. It was like four floors, three and four. Clearlink had rented out. That was, that was a fun job. It sucked. But I did really well there. I made a lot of money. And then they fired me. Actually, it was the first job I got fired from. What did you do? I, there was a competition to see who could do the most overtime in three months. And I was like, I'm going to win time because I had, I had, you know, started smoking weed. Oh, yeah. And I was like, yeah, I'm just going to do overtime. I actually did, I worked like 12 hour days and did all this stuff. And it was, I was so burnt out. I had, like, I don't know, I don't want to fluff up, but it was like 20 or 30 more hours than the number two place of overtime. And I was so like exhausted. I just didn't go to work for like two days in a row. And they, they, I mean, they didn't like me for various reasons. Wow. Why else did they not like you? I walked into work. I used to be, my buddies who I was assimilating with were really into supreme. So I naturally got really into like supreme, are you selling? Drop shipping. Yeah. And there was this really cool supreme shirt. I wish I had it still. It was an old, like, what are those old, you know, like, it looked like it was supposed to be in the lube, you know, an old painting of a woman just strewn out over her, over her couch and a goose kind of sniffing out her cooter. You could see everything. And I was like, big balls, marine, walking into work with this shirt and crazy shirt to go to work. Yeah. What's up, guys? I mean, you know, like one of the top sales, man, I can give a fuck. And yeah, this girl, you talk county? Yeah, this is here in Warren. Yeah. Yeah. Cheese. And yeah, this girl did not like it. The gay guy who worked next to me really enjoyed the shirt. He thought it was awesome that I was wearing it. But yeah, this girl, she reported me, they told me to either put a hoodie on or go home. And I almost, I almost was like, well, she better wear some longer pants because her ugly ass legs are being shown after the world. Oh, yeah. I didn't say that. Oh, yeah. But she had some, she was like hanging her ugly ass and she's ass out of her fucking shorts. And it just look, I was kinkles and everything. It was horrible. I just couldn't handle it. But, you know, she won that one. I gave it to her. And there's just like a lot of being late and giving him a lit and like, dude, so you were like a little, yeah, I get at that point in your life, like you just left the church. Like, what the fuck am I doing? You were a little, you were like a little saucy. I'm excited drinking. Yeah, that is a crazy thing to wear to work. I like the way that's, I will say, when I was a missionary, bring it back to Christ, on a P day once, I was the only American. So my mission was 70% Latinos and 30%. Really? Yeah, there weren't a lot of Americans. We were heavily outnumbered. And so I was like in a district where it was all Latinos. I was the only American. So none of them spoke English. And so on P day, I wore a shirt that said bitches be trippin. I knew none of them would understand. What an apostate shirt to wear. Did you bring that with you? No, I found it at a thrift store in Guatemala. Wow. Yeah. You just like gaslight them. You're like, no, well, bitches is a term of endearment. Yeah. In our country. Yeah. It's actually okayed by my bishop back home. That's why rappers are such sweet lovers. No, but it's okay. See how you're like, you're kind of floundering a bit. You get fired from clear link. Yeah. What happens next? Dude, I remember that was that was that's when it got hazy. That's when the weed really started getting smoked. What was the next job you had? How much weed were you smoking? Was it every day? It was, you know, when you the first three months of smoking in your life, you get really high. Yeah. Yeah. And then I was really high. And then after the three months, then it was just a lot of weed. So it's just really high the whole time. Oh, that's that's uh, you never took a day off? Um, no, no. Yeah. Never took a day off. That's what it is. Actually, yeah, I did. I did take days off to go drill with the Marine Corps when I was in the reserves. Yeah. Dude. So I hope the federal government doesn't watch this because I was doing weed. Well, you can't put everyone else in the reserves. They can't serve it. Because this is all your care. It's a character right now. This is not real. Yeah. This podcast is fun. It's, it's, this is entertainment. You know, this is WWE. Yeah. This is uh, yeah. You're not a demon. You never fucked a guy. Yeah. That's right. Everyone who I've told I'm straight. Yeah. Uh, no, but uh, okay. So, uh, but like what job did you have after? You don't remember the next job you had? It was like, it was, I did a, I donated plasma for a bit. I had a lot of money from bootcamp, like saved up from training. Um, and I just kind of was living. Well, yeah, they pay you. They pay you salary. Didn't know that. Based on your rank. Oh, okay. Yeah. So like the six months of training, I got paid really well for all that. Uh, because I was in infantry, so it was like a lot of hazard pay. There's like time and a half and be sure. And um, I was living off that kind of bumming around donating plasma here and there. And then I got a job at this company called Zackster. Okay. They did, you know, the spin scooters in Provo? Yeah. It's just, it's just, it's like a lime scooter. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And um, we were actually the first company in the world to have a warehouse or at least in the States, at least in Utah to uh, you really walked that back. Yeah. Well, I don't know. That's, that's what they told me. They told me it was the first company in the world like this, but maybe they just sure they would say, yeah. All right. All right. Anyways, the scooters, we would, we would charge them. I would fix them and like I help manage the shifts and stuff. Um, and uh, that was, that was the next job. That was a night job. It was like nine, eight or nine PM to one AM. Thank you, dude. We, they brought lime scooters in my hometown, spoke hand Washington and uh, dude went off the rails. Like the first week, there was like 10 of them thrown into the river down the floor. Yeah. Yeah. That's awesome. I know I love Washington. I love that show. Um, no, see, I said you were just preparing, you were preparing that. Mm hmm. How long, but that was, did you like it? Was it fun? I mean, it was, I was just like super high the whole time and just fucking, yeah, I was, it was fun. I almost got shot at that job. I have these craziest stories. I'm just, he almost got shot. Yeah. Um, so there was a coworker that I had who he had a concealed carry. Oh, I like where this is going. Yeah. This is a, this is a great story. This is, I, I was in the Marine Corps infantry and this is the closest I've been to getting shot. Um, uh, we were, this is absolutely stupid of us to do, but there's these back rooms I weren't being used and I was like, Hey, let's, let's practice like clearing rooms. Cause I was a skill that I'm good at. Like I'm very good at clearing a building. And, and tapping them on the shoulder. That's, that's, that's when you initially breach, but then the clearing is like a whole process of visually, uh, you know, you have to go. It's like, you know, uh, center left, right. And then you walk in a certain way, let your buddy come out and then you post and then you kind of just shuffle back and forth through the rooms. But he had his concealed carry and I was just using finger guns, you know, and he, uh, stupidest thing I've ever done. I, he said it was clear. He said his weapon was clear. I didn't check it, but he was training with me tech. Like we were having a quasi training session. Oh no, weapon safety rules, no matter who it is, no matter what they've done, you always make sure their weapon is clear. Yeah, right guys, always. Um, and, uh, did we were he was behind me? Oh, this fucking retard did he fucking, I don't know why he didn't just keep his finger off the trigger. This is at work. This is, this is at work. And, and, um, and, and he's right behind me. We enter a room. He looks left, right, looks up, shoots into the ceiling. He shoots a fucking round off into the fucking ceiling. Like, okay, God, I, okay, you leave around in your gun. You shoot it at work. Who the fuck is hiding in the ceiling? That's why I like that. You should have at least accidentally hit me. Yeah. Yeah. It was past my year. I was my tonight. I have tonight is from, from being the, so I couldn't hear shit. I was like, and he was freaking out because he thought I was hit. You thought he like, yeah, I mean, because I was like on the floor, like what the fuck? And, um, and then I popped back up. I'm like, you good. I'm good. Okay. We're good. I was like, that was a stupid shit. I'm never spending time with you again. Like, um, like that. No, that, that's, that's it. You know, it's like, how do you get a concealed weapon permit? I guess, I mean, also, you don't need one. It's constitutional carry, man. Well, you still, you can still get one and you can only constitutional carry like on state street pretty much. You can't like go into places and you can't go into Walmart and constitutional carry. Yeah, that's bullshit. You have to have concealed to do that. Which is kind of bullshit. Anyway, the boss heard it. The boss was in the other room and he heard this happen. He heard the gunshot, but I'm a, I'm a witty guy, you know, I'm a quick, quick on my feet. So I go, yeah, there was these assholes on the street setting out fireworks in the middle of February. And he was like, no way. Like, that's insane. Oh my God. It's like, you guys okay? And we're like, there's like surveillance, but they watch it later. Oh, it was all it was, it was like a super rundown thing. I don't even think they had surveillance cameras the whole lot. Oh my God. So yeah, we got away with firing a gun into the charging and city limits. Yeah. Jesus Christ. I mean, not the first one, I'll have discharge and soon. Hey, shout out to Jason. That's fucking wild. Yeah, it was crazy. Got to be with that. Okay. Yeah, I got to be with that. I like that so far. Hey, so far, this interview is going well. Yeah, don't say that. Don't say that. Don't say that. No, it's, it's cool. It could go bad. Yeah, I think I know. Don't wait. No, no, we're just, we're just learning about you. It's not like, we might learn, you said that more people talk to the more they don't like you. So we'll see where this goes. The more they think I'm insane. Okay, but they generally like it. Do you like, do you like to imagine dragons? Imagine dragons. I used to, you know, but I don't, I can't, they're not like a guilty pleasure. I don't even think about them. Hey, here's the thing. You say that. And then, and then like the first album will come on. There's gonna be part of you. It's like, oh, for sure. Still, like you're still playing in my heart, like, my head, my heart. I know. You're from Provo, dude. I can't, I tried resisting it. Can't. No, I'm insane. Same with BYU. I tried not liking them. Can't do it. If you play radioactive, there's no way I'm not going to like it, but like, I don't seek it out. That is what music do you listen to? Um, I listen to a lot, just like rap. And I've been listening a lot more like psychedelic rock and just like alternative music and getting more than a lot of tame Paula, for sure. A lot of crumb, a lot of the Mac Marco. And then some more like yellow days, if you know them, they're really good. A lot of that kind of stuff. Okay. I like it. I know the, the joke we were ever in a band. Yeah, I was in, is in high school, we were called Crimson. Crimson? We did mostly Guns and Roses covers. Perfect. What, what, what did you do in the band? Lead guitarist. Okay. Nice. So you get with a guitar? Used to be. Used to be. Okay. Go with your fingers. Yeah, I'm not with the ladies though. Yeah, no. Yeah. The dudes though. There you go. Well, that's easy. Like I can grip. I can know how to grip the fucking guitar. Yeah, I can grip the neck, but can't finger the strings. Yeah. Yeah. That's the, that's the big divide. Um, you know, okay, shit your pants at work. Not at work, but um, I did shit my pants while playing. Uh, have you heard my bit about this? No, it's not really bad. I, I retired it because it's stupid, but it is a great story. It's retired. Okay. Um, but it's a, I wish I would say all my bad jokes. So I retired that. Well, I retired. I'm four months in. It's like, I'm actually, I don't think I have a single joke that, like, that I do now that I came up with, like, in my first two years, I'm screwed up. Right. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. It's so much that you look back on. You like this is, why did I even keep these notes? Yeah. But anyways, so, so I was, I was playing GTA online, um, with my, with, with three other dudes and we had a full squad, you know, and you have to, if you die or leave, the whole squad loses out on the cash. Um, and uh, we're playing, and I, this is when I was like, uh, on Xanax and stuff prescribed. Oh, but still abusing it. Here we go. Yeah. I didn't know you were a little zanny boy. Oh, definitely. Yes. Definitely. Now we're getting, is it getting more fun? And uh, like I was smoking a bunch of weeds, and it's not drinking in Xanax. Don't do that. I'll kill you. But, um. That's when it gets fun. Yeah. Yeah. That's when it gets fun for the suicidal people. There you go. Uh, and um, it just, I trusted the wrong fart. That's really all it was. Okay. And it just came out and I felt it immediately. I knew what, I knew what was going on, but we were, we were like right in the thick of this heist and being in the marine that I am, I was like, I'm finishing this mission. Yeah. And we finished the mission. We got the cash. And then I, yeah, I went and threw my underwear away. That's very admirable. That's, yeah. That is very horrible. That was the last time I, that was the last time I shit my pants. I haven't shown my pants since. Yeah. Okay. No, there's multiple times. I don't want to hear every time, but it was just like younger, like when I was really early on. Okay. So, okay, real quick, because I, I just know, because if all, you know, when you graduated high school, I'm trying to follow this timeline. Yeah. After the, the fucking scooter thing, is that like right before COVID or? Yeah, that was right before COVID. Okay. So I left the scooter job when COVID started, because of, it's like, you know, you have 500 scooters being touched by thousands of people. I told them, I was like, it's going to get shut down by the city. I'm not coming to work, you know, like come to work, we're using Clorox wipes. Two weeks later, Provo shut it down. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So what did you do during COVID? Jiffy Lube. That's when I started in Jiffy Lube. Yeah. Which Jiffy Lube, I want to know is an arm 800 north and state. Okay. Oh, I deliver tires there. Yeah. Yeah. You get the air. Do you know, Eric Edwards? No, shouldn't name him. He's, he's like an uncle to me. Oh, dude, he probably has signed my iPhone. I'm sure he has. Do a signature for the tires. No, that's sick. That was okay. So you said we're at the lube. Yep. And okay. And then that's just kind of what you've been doing. Yeah. Well, no, I had a, I had a break, I had a two, a year and a half break from, from being a mechanic. When I stopped working at Jiffy Lube, I worked at Jiffy Lube for like two and a half years at multiple locations. One of the most interesting jobs I've ever done is a wilderness therapy with troubled teens. I was a, I was a trail guide. That's actually where I met my ex-fiancé. She was a teen. She was another staff, unfortunately, but I wish she wasn't. That would have been much better. The reason I knew about it is because my brother went, my parents put him through that program. Oh, hell yeah. That's good. Yeah, I did. So troubled family. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, much so. It's funny because I knew a guy in my ward, who his dad was like a motivational kind of guy. He'd go to like corporate, like, you'd do like these corporate events. We'd go to these businesses and like talk about, you know, like how to like, you know, treat your employees, like humans. And like you were like, he was all about this shit and about like self help and all that and sons fucking drug addict. Yeah, of course. Yeah. Oh, it's just, it's fun. So your dad's a bishop, but the kids are having a tough time. All, all but one have left the church and the one who's hanging on by thread is not having a great time. So hell yeah, struggling out in LA. What's he doing? My sister in LA. Yeah, she's a she's crazy. So she's doing kind of be actress. I don't know, dude. Her husband, her husband is trying to be some fucking film junkie or something like he's trying to get in the film industry. This is like the right time to get in. That's what we told strikes and all that. I was like, I'm going to start a midwife business. I'm like, what the fuck you don't. This is the thing though. That's just it's a more fun when you talk to people like that. Yeah. Because you get used to people around here, like, you know, they have a steady job and all that. And hey, and for your actual life, it's probably better because it's like sustainable. And it's like, you know, you have a family. But as far as fun people to talk to someone who's like, I'm just going to be a midwife. They're the most horrific company. Yeah, they're my sister bullied me relentlessly in my whole life. Yeah. Oh, yeah, dude. Yeah. Shout out to her. Shout out to Julia. What's up? I hope you're doing well. What's his one second? I thought you meant Julia, like the comic, but no, what's a cool conspiracy theory that you believe in? Oh, man. I was saying, I think the Illuminati is like, for real. Like, they're definitely out there. That one's. Yeah. I don't know. I think less and less. So that's like, that's true. That's like, nine, nine, eight, eight, eight, eight, eight, and we're like, oh, yeah. Also, it's like the conspiracy you're saying is essentially like, hey, I think the Uber rich people are doing some shit behind the scenes. We don't know about it. Have you ever seen like the videos of like the celebrities being like, oh, don't like, don't talk like on what? Like what? Like what? Like what? Kevin Hart, the CIA weaponizes Hollywood. No, it was like, Kevin, I was having an interview with that fucking like Mormon songwriter, like the one who Mormons love. Can't remember her name, but she started, she's like, yeah, people like wanted to throw millions of dollars in my face. And like, I was like, what the hell? And he was like, stop talking. He's like, they will get you. He didn't say that, but he was like, stop. Well, okay. Okay. So how many times have you seen the cat Williams interview and on club Shay? I can't handle watching that, dude. When people get old, they just start losing their sensibilities and start talking in loops. And he's just hard to follow. Cat Williams. Dude, I go, he's like, I was done with the Rogan episode. Dude, I love cat Williams. Did you finish it? I was listening to the Rogan episode and like, I mean, dude, the ship, like he's just talking about it. I love it because he's so serious. Oh, he's so simple down on like reading. Yes. And I love that. I saw one in the box a week. It's actually fucking amazing, but yeah. No. Okay. So the camera died. Yeah. We're audio. We're going to finish this out. Worked with Nicholas arrows up. So we could do it. No, no one usually is finishing this, but but just for us. Anyways, so when did you see it? You had a fiance? You don't have to talk about it. It's a little too tense. No, yeah. What did you get engaged? We got engaged. Good question. August 23rd of 22 years ago. Two years ago? Yeah, 22 years ago. Yeah, 22. Okay. Guy? Girl. Okay. Yeah. And how long? We were engaged for a year. We were together for two. Okay. Shit. I didn't even start to stand up like a month after. It was like six months after she left me. Yeah. There you go. You need an outlet. Okay. Yeah. She's the one who I, that joke I have. That's all about. Sometimes you mention these things like I remember all your jokes. Well, you don't even remember talking about Alex P. Why exactly? Yeah. I remember these jokes. That's true. I shouldn't even be bringing it up. It's for the listeners at home. They know. Yeah. They're like, you know what I joke I do? All right. No, but okay. So you were engaged. Why didn't it work out? Oh, dude, I just, we were, we were perfect for each other. We were horrible to each other. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. A lot of jealousy, a lot of a lot of her talking highly of her exes and talking to her exes and wanting to go hang out with her exes. Oh, cool. Yeah. The cool stuff. Yeah. Like jerking off her exes and stuff. Oh, hell yeah. And me being just like a sensitive little, this is my first relationship I'd ever been in. Do first relationship? Yeah. She jerked off with her exes. Like she, she like looked at their needs and like would like do her thing to it. Hey, you know, that's very normal. Yeah. Which shouldn't be. I'm just kidding. No, I'm just kidding. It's like, he's wrong. Like, yeah. I was like next time. I had my fair share of shit too. I didn't treat her very well. So no, he goes, yeah. Yeah. I just, I was just learning how to be in a relationship. Oh, my God. We were both. Yeah. Man, this is like the end of the Jimmy episode where I feel like we just started like trying to help him. Yeah. I know. I'm like, hey, dude, like I'm talking to someone now and it's going real well. Yeah. There you go. That's fun. Was she at the Alliance Theater? Yeah, that's her. Yeah. I saw her. Yeah. Very pretty. I shook her hand. Yeah. Okay. Did you own any guns before Valentine's Day? I'm not allowed to own guns for that reason. My family won't let me. Okay. Like the, but the government. Well, you, yeah. They're sure. I think you'll buy one. Okay. So that's a little different. So the family won't let you have a gun. No. No. Okay. They don't have to know about it. They don't have to know, but you know, it's like too much money to buy a gun anyways. There's a lot easier, like cheaper ways to do it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Also, but like how cool would it be if like you're just like off to yourself on stage? Oh, my feet pretty fucking horrible. That would. Dude. But also, if you're going to be legendary, if you want to send a shockwave through the comedy scene here, yeah, you just kill yourself. Never for whole open magazine. Like, hey, you guys a bunch of fucking losers and then you can kill yourself. And then that would just end the, oh, my comedy scene. It's all. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I wonder if wise guys would like shut down. Maybe we shouldn't talk about it. Give anyone any ideas. No, it's audio only. Oh, my God. Okay. Also, shoot Oz first before no, no, there's better targets. No, just kidding. Oz won't kill one. Yeah. Seeing that would just give him the pushy needs, you know, well, actually, my traumatizing enough that it finally unlocks his true potential. And yeah, dude, Oz has like Netflix special five months after. Yeah, dude, he's like, dude, it's like the fucking like it's like the dune when Shao may finally rides like the worm, like he's a Messiah. Like the new dude. Yeah, dude. I want to see it. It's fucking awesome. Yeah. Amanda and I are like, we have to watch the first one because we last time we saw it was like a year and a half ago. We need to refresh before we watch the new one. What's this thing about doing? Everyone's like sucking this movie's dick. I don't know what the books are. I don't know what the movies are. Dick should be sucked. I listened to an audiobook. No, it's fucking I just watched the first one. It's like, I got HBO. Yeah, watch the first one, and then go see the and then go see this one on IMAX. Okay. Cause I'll take my, it's Denis Vanu. Like, you know, that he's an incredible fucking filmmaker. And it's like, you'll walk out of that being like, why don't they make more movies like this? Like, really big budget movies. Like it's like, wait, what was the director's name? Denis Villeneuve. Oh, you know, it's gonna be good. French guy. Well, cause he did like Blade Runner 2040. Oh, that was good. I like that one. One for a night. Yeah. And then he did a rival. Rival's good. Prisoners. He did like, he's an amazing filmmaker. Cool. Yeah. I'll have to. I'll go watch that then. But anyways, yeah. We'll wrap this up here. One country could wipe off the map. The new, which one is it? Come on. There's so many good options. Oh my God. You got it. Probably France. France. Yeah. Okay. Okay. And Dario. Dario also picked France. Interesting. French people are just the fucking worst. I've been to France. Yeah. I grew up, my dad's a French professor. So we did study abroad all the time. Oh my God. Oh, okay. I think this is a real deep seated hatred. Yeah. Like there's, there's a, I've almost died in France. I almost got killed by a truck that I that my mom is convinced an angel saved me. Love it. That's a good story. Prove it wrong. Prove it wrong. Yeah. Man. What was it that I got? Oh, we have this guy. This homeless guy jumped out of the corner and tried to scare me. And I thought it was candid camera. So I just looked at him and laughed and said, not going to give me this time, pal. It's actually also candid camera. That's like such a fun reference. I never saw that show. Yeah. You know that show from the 90s? It's like, it's happening to me right now. It's like, yeah, there's there had to be someone when 9/11 happened to like, this is wrong, it's wrong camera right now. There's a crayon. Yeah. Guys, it's not real. It's not real. I could have totally chosen Israel. That's usually the fun answer we wanted to get to is picking aside. Well, I guess from there, like, who do you like? More Jews or Muslims? Muslims, I've had more positive interactions with my personal life, but which is funny because most people in the Marines don't say that. Okay. So shout out to Holly J once again. I mean, I haven't met, I'm from Utah and like, there's not many Jews here. Exactly. It's keeping them over there. Okay. They've been fighting for years. I just say, everyone's like, oh, free Palestine or like, oh, they're terrorists. It's like, just let them just let them find it out. No, I mean, I don't know if it's going to help us the right. I don't know, because Israel is definitely more powerful. That's why I just let them find it out. Okay. So you think the crusades, like, I mean, that was, you know, like people weren't saying, you know, the difference with the Christians are more different to the crusades. You couldn't watch on TikTok. So it was less entertaining. Yeah, exactly. But no, okay. So France. Yeah. Okay. I like it. I like frogs. Yeah. I like frogs. It's just, you know, what to reference. That's my dad. He said that's the meanest thing you can call a French person. I know he's lying because he just doesn't want to tell me. Hey, I don't know what it is, really. I also really appreciate this answer because of what's happening to Alpene right now. Oh, yeah. So just not doing well. I don't know what's going on. I watch the race. I don't know if one because no, I just haven't been following it recently. Like the recent start of the season. Like, I know there's all the, they talk and stuff. I just watch the races. I let the races speak for. Oh, yeah. No, dude, you're missing half of the fun because the behind the scenes stuff. Alpene is like the worst car on the grid right now. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And it's fired off last year because, oh, yeah, performing. And then they got this French dude. He took over. He's never run a team before. And now they're the worst car on the grid. And they're all of their like heads of like their head of aerodynamics, an engineer, all that jump and shit. Everyone's leaving the team. Which sucks because I love, Gasly is one of my favorite drivers. Gasly, but like this team's fucked. Yeah, they're fucked for sure. And they blocked in Dreddy and Cadillac. I didn't know that everyone was jumping shit, but no. Yeah, it's like, it's bad. So yeah, my dad is really upset about it. He's really Alpene fan. Oh, huge. He's just anything France. I understand what you're doing. I definitely understand why you had like, you were lashing out now again. That's so fun. Your dad's a fucking Alpene fan. No one's a fucking Alpene fan. That's also funny. You're like, that's where my dad served his mission. So France. Yeah, yeah. We're connecting the dots. Do you have rage issues with your dad? No, not at all. Yeah. He's great. Oh, your mom. There we go. I love her. That's it. I love her. That's the one thing. That's the one right there. It was a little bit of mom. All right. All I had to hear was that pause. That's fun. Yeah. Okay. We have a good relationship these days, but not always, you know, it's just one of those kinds of stories. But hey, it's okay. Yeah. No. Would we hire you? I think definitely is our mechanic. Like this is, you know, mechanic shot at work. Yeah. And then you'd be great to have on this team because you're a mechanic. Also, you know, we know, like, if we have you in the building, like anyone tries to get in there, like, you're like, you know, you got the sixth cent here on top of it. Sixth sense is just called post-traumatic stress disorder. Yeah. You're always like, you always think it's going to happen. Yeah. And then the other added benefit is Jimmy's on the team. He's a, you know, he has an internship, but he's in a box. He's in a glass cage. Yeah. Because we're afraid of what he'll do to girls. So you just let him, like, jerk off in there. I guess what we could, but would be fun is you're on the team and we can just be like, Jimmy, we just tapped, we just pound on the glass at this point to you and be like, look how, you know, all of this shit that's happened to Jack, how fucked up his life is, has been. Look, look where he is now. Look how good he, look how much, look how much fun he's having. And I don't know, like, you know, I actually don't know why I was going with that. I remember I had the idea before I started talking about it. We need to, like, cage him to fuck his life. I just wanted to have a jab and slave, but I forgot the jab. But, yeah. Also, I think this is the first episode without Jimmy. No, we went to the beginning. We had some Jimmy Jabs. We talked about our, like, our DMs. Oh, yeah. We mentioned that. No, we don't worry. He'll always be a part of this podcast. He's never leaving. He's my favorite. Like, this podcast does take off. We have a real audience, and we're still men. And in the subreddit, it's like, who the fuck is this? I feel like I've got to go back and go on vibes. Like, this is when this podcast really began. But, yeah, so you're, you're on the team. Perfect. Yeah, nailed it. You know, and yeah, you were a lot easier of a hire. Like, like, Cheyenne was really on the fence. We didn't really know what to do with her, which we fired her. Yeah, it's fun. Yeah. Nice. No, because in Cindy's, you have an internship. We took Cindy to replace Cheyenne as our accountant. But unpaid. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If we don't pay that, you know, and if you do, $0.70 in the dollar, for sure. But also, we also find a reason why she was an intern. It was just so she could walk around Jimmy's cage. We need it. We need to find someone. We'll just be like, just get them amped up. Yeah. Yeah. So it was, we needed to get someone on who we, for sure, won't hire someday. Because we're on a streak right now. Like, we gave it to Jimmy. We gave it to Cheyenne. Well, I mean, like, some of these have been, this is caveats, but we definitely have, I mean, did we hire on Drace? Well, we weren't doing that yet. But like, I feel like, I can't remember if like we were like, we're like, no, I think, I think, no, Drace would not have made it. Yeah. No, no, no, because a trace was like, for everything he told us, you're like, dude, you're like a serial killer. Like, yeah, but anyways, okay. All right. Well, oh, yeah. Do you want people to find you? Yeah. Jack Cropper Comedy, CRO, PPER. I don't know why everyone thinks it's Crawford, but we probably should not at the beginning. Yeah. But we do that at the end. Yeah. Plug your Instagram. At the end, yeah. So Nick did people. Yeah. When it really drops off. Yeah. That's where we plug you. But all right. Well, it's for coming on, dude. Yeah. Thanks for having me. Yeah. I'm great.
