BetterHelp. You know it, you
0:04
love it, it's BetterHelp.
0:34
Hey
0:43
everybody, this is Chad Daniels and you have landed
0:45
in the middle of somewhere. Hello, how are you?
0:47
Thank you for coming back. What are you doing
0:49
today? I know you can't answer me, but just
0:52
think about it. What are you doing today? Across
0:54
from me, as always, is Cyrus Amundsen. What am
0:56
I doing today, Chad? I'm learning about Ozempic. Is
1:00
that the weight loss drug? Yeah, I don't think
1:02
that's what it, so I'm learning that it was
1:04
like a diabetes drug. Somebody explained
1:06
this to me today because there's
1:09
a new South Park out that is, and
1:11
I can't wait to watch it, it's a
1:13
special. Oh yeah, it's the one
1:15
where they go into the American
1:18
medical system. Yes. I
1:20
saw a clip of it and I can't
1:22
wait to watch it either. As someone who
1:26
I would say isn't the best friend
1:28
of the American medical system, I
1:31
can't wait. I know it has a lot
1:34
to do with obesity. I'm guessing there's shots
1:36
at Ozempic, so
1:38
I've been trying to learn
1:41
a little bit about Ozempic. Yeah,
1:43
that's what, I don't have anything more. I don't think I
1:46
should talk about it. I don't think I'm educated enough to
1:48
talk about it. I don't think anybody's at home. I hope
1:51
on today's episode, Psy
1:53
brings in some Ozempic, not just
1:56
knowledge, but hot takes. It's
2:00
a barefoot summer. I can't fucking worry
2:02
about all this Ozempic stuff. That's it.
2:04
I'm moving on It's an
2:06
interesting it's an interesting way to start a show
2:08
where you go Hey, I've been
2:10
learning about this thing and I'm like, okay, and
2:13
you go can't talk about it Can
2:15
I can I tell you can't talk about
2:17
it? Sorry NDA. Can I tell you about
2:19
a different thing? I've been learning about Sure.
2:22
I mean, are you going to I don't know
2:24
I also realized that we decided what we were
2:26
gonna start the show with and neither of these
2:29
things are it But something happens to my brain
2:31
when you're like, hello everyone. Is it are you
2:33
having a nice day? I'm having a nice day
2:35
where I just I get like the men and
2:37
I thought that was a decent
2:39
impression I get the I Get
2:43
the men in black flash and
2:46
I'm like, I forgot that there were seven different things
2:48
I wanted to talk about Oh
2:50
my god yesterday. We're driving to get coffee
2:52
Olivia and I and we're listening
2:54
to Hit me
2:56
baby one more time by tenacious d the cover for
2:58
Kung Fu Panda 4 Okay, and
3:00
we are ripping it and so I
3:03
go Oh, here's another song that will
3:05
sing loudly together and I start to
3:07
I have Siri on my phone The
3:09
little the little orb is like, you
3:11
know vibrating on the whole scene it's
3:14
breathing and I go hey Siri
3:16
and then Olivia just randomly
3:19
throws out a fact and For
3:22
the last 24 hours have not been able to
3:24
think of the song I was trying to play I
3:27
don't know what happened, but she zapped
3:29
me. I mean it is
3:31
gone There's not even a trace of it
3:33
not like oh, it's from this. Oh, maybe
3:35
it's this it is so gone I
3:38
don't know how she did it. It was
3:40
like some fucking voodoo shit And now do
3:42
you think that that is a happenstance of
3:44
a situation or do you think perhaps? Dementia
3:47
runs in your family, but you
3:50
wouldn't know about it because we don't know how
3:52
Steve turned out Well,
3:54
I don't think he had dementia and my grandma
3:56
had what we thought was dementia turns out traumatic
3:58
brain injury. Oh Jennifer
16:00
Lawrence, it's new on Netflix. It's where she gets
16:02
naked on the beach in a kung fu fighting
16:04
scene. Nope. You want some
16:06
porn. Go watch that. Anyways, the guy
16:08
from Dear Evan Hansen is on there,
16:10
and he just was spitting just
16:12
wildly. We just saw fireworks coming at us,
16:14
and we're in the front row of this
16:16
thing, and we don't want to dodge it
16:19
and ruin the show. And so we're sitting
16:21
there just taking shrapnel on the shoulders. It
16:23
was disgusting. And then he's in this movie, and
16:25
we're just, Olivia and I are all of a
16:28
sudden excited. That's the guy that spit on us.
16:30
We have simple lives. Because
16:33
that's a thing, right? Isn't that a thing
16:35
with live theatrical performances? Is the spitting, have
16:37
I heard that? Is the spitting a thing?
16:40
I mean, I have to think so, because
16:42
they're singing so forcefully. Like, these are trained
16:44
singers. This is not me singing on the
16:46
way to Home Depot. This is someone who
16:49
knows how to use their diaphragm to belt
16:51
out a tune, and then spit,
16:53
obviously, comes with it. Now, do you
16:56
ever think you get a high class
16:59
perv where you're up there, you're
17:01
in like week seven of a show on Broadway
17:04
or touring the country? I
17:07
mean, front row seats are hundreds of dollars.
17:10
And all of a sudden, you look down, and there's a guy in a
17:12
suit just like, ahh. He's
17:15
just waiting for it. He's got
17:17
his tongue out like he's taken
17:19
whatever that bread is at the Catholic Church, Body
17:21
of Christ. Communion? There
17:24
we go. Is that what it's called? Yeah,
17:26
I don't know what those are called, the wafers. I
17:29
don't know. I'm sure they have a name. Body of
17:31
Christ. Yeah, I'm sure they have a name, but I
17:33
don't know what the wafers themselves are called. What would
17:35
be really interesting is to go pay the $100 to
17:37
get to front row
17:40
seat, and then grab some spit, and then
17:42
frame someone for a crime. Yeah,
17:45
I'm just
17:47
going to move off the topic, because. Not
17:50
yet. What's your favorite musical? Oh, OK. We can go
17:52
back to musicals. But I, because we've been talking porn,
17:54
and spitting, and all this stuff, I just feel like
17:56
it's a dangerous path if we don't veer. didn't
20:00
feel that way and then she did feel that way
20:02
and then now she doesn't feel that way? No, no,
20:04
no, no, no, no. I do think it's been a
20:06
slight increase every step of the way in
20:09
terms of certainty. But I
20:11
still think if you saw her real
20:13
percentage, you'd be like, oh, I thought
20:15
it'd be higher for a marriage with
20:17
a child. So
20:21
I was the
20:24
second day. Oh, I love her getting
20:26
the truth out. The second day that
20:29
I invited her on, I was like, and
20:32
this is when it was at its
20:34
house, I was like, let's go to Book of Mormon. I
20:36
want to go see it. And it was with
20:38
Josh Gad and it was with the whole thing. But
20:43
we didn't go. And then
20:45
by the time there was a different
20:47
opportunity to see it, Josh Gad was
20:49
no longer in the production. So
20:52
yeah, did my wife cost me a fucking opportunity
20:54
to see Josh Gad in the Book of Mormon
20:56
all while only loving me 38% to 43% of
20:59
the way? Perhaps.
21:03
But. That sucks. She really
21:05
took it out because now when you
21:07
watch Frozen with Sunday, you could
21:09
be like, oh, your mom and I saw
21:11
that guy that's doing the voice of the
21:13
snowman in another
21:15
production. But you can't do that story.
21:18
Now what we can do is when
21:20
we did actually start dating because she's
21:22
in the animated film world, we
21:25
went to this thing called D23, which
21:29
also that it's a Disney
21:31
convention, but it does sound like a porn convention.
21:33
My brain is just in the porn sphere. Also
21:37
underrated aspect, funny aspect
21:39
of pornography is the
21:41
porn conventions where
21:43
guys who are such big fans
21:46
of porn, like I'm
21:48
going to a convention and I'm going to take
21:51
a picture with my favorite porn star. That's
21:54
so funny. And I
21:56
know there are people who are like, that's the grossest thing I've ever
21:58
heard. Perhaps. But can you
22:00
the old equation in comedy is
22:02
whatever it is that's bad Are
22:05
you funnier than the thing that's bad? So sure
22:08
is it gross? Sure. Yes, but
22:10
I tell you google
22:13
porn star picture with fans
22:15
and make sure you put
22:18
at Adult film convention don't
22:20
just end on that first part
22:23
Right don't end on that first part But put that do
22:25
not end at the first part put that whole thing in
22:28
And I think it's I
22:30
think it's so funny I think
22:33
and I think you should count the wet pants I
22:35
think you should count the wet pants. I think the
22:37
the percentage of guys that have wet pants Is
22:40
higher than jenna loving side. That's
22:42
what I think so Yeah,
22:44
I I like musical theater and I like
22:46
I like it all the way down here
22:48
shoob's his mom so
22:51
alex shubert king of hand land
22:54
The great shoob's uh
22:57
catch her miss so shoob's and we've
22:59
talked about the shabbles. He has a
23:01
perfect pitch right and
23:04
uh And I didn't know where that
23:06
came from and then his mom earlier
23:08
this year was telling us and who's
23:10
a wonderful woman Deb shubert
23:12
and she has to be she
23:15
has to be she's a survivor if somebody
23:17
with those hands came crawling out of her
23:20
Yeah hands first she's thank you. No, thank you. She's
23:22
like, did you ever hear that story about I don't
23:24
know if it's the korean His head's gigantic too. Let's
23:27
not forget about the head Have
23:30
you ever heard that story? I can't remember which
23:32
war it was But it's either the korean or
23:34
the vietnam war where like a soldier from the
23:37
other side went off into the mountains And
23:39
was like part of an operation But then
23:41
never received word that the war the operation
23:43
was over. So he lived up there for
23:45
like 28 years And
23:48
then he came back to society and he's like
23:52
Did we win like that's I'm
23:55
doing the story poorly, but you're like
23:57
that's the ultimate survivor
24:00
I think it's him and Deb Schubert. Yeah.
24:03
So. Yeah, absolutely. Because when she came to
24:05
22 years later, having
24:08
a 22-year-old son with a giant head and giant
24:10
hands, she was like, did
24:13
we win? And then he's
24:15
like, well, I got some good news and some bad
24:17
news. I have perfect pitch. That's
24:19
the good news. I got to tell you something. Shubes
24:21
came and did a guest set in Kansas City. Crushed.
24:23
Yeah, that's what Anthony Leo told me. Absolutely crushed it.
24:25
Murder did, I heard. Was so
24:27
fun. His mom, she told Jen and
24:29
I, because she comes over and hangs
24:32
out with Sunday sometimes, she
24:34
told Jen and I, she was like, oh, I'm
24:36
going to have to switch days when
24:38
I come over because I
24:41
got the role in this musical. And
24:44
I'm going to, I'm
24:46
going to have rehearsals and stuff. We're like, oh, that's cool. And
24:49
she just kept telling us about it and telling
24:51
us about it. And it was the night of
24:53
the opening. And we couldn't go. But
24:57
I wanted to stop by and
24:59
drop flowers off from
25:03
the three of us, me
25:05
and Jen and Kevin. Sunday didn't, he doesn't, I
25:07
refuse to give him credit. Sunday hates music. And
25:09
here's the thing, pay your fair share. Pay
25:13
your fair share. I know nobody else wants to work,
25:15
but that's not how it works in my household. If
25:17
you want your name on the card, get a job
25:20
and pay a third. And
25:26
I don't even need him to pay a third. I
25:29
don't even need, that's the sort of father I am.
25:31
Yeah, you're raising this kid to hump his
25:34
mom. I'm telling you, got to pay a
25:36
third. His stepmom. That's what
25:38
I meant. So I go,
25:40
I find out, I know what
25:42
the name of the musical is and I like, and I'm
25:44
new to Cincinnati. So it's not like I know what places
25:46
and things are. And I'm like, I'm going to run over
25:48
and I'm going to drop off these flowers and I'm going
25:50
to go home. And then I'm like, gosh, all the way
25:52
down in Cincinnati, downtown.
25:55
And I'm like, that's a weird place for like a
25:57
community church. And I get down there.
26:01
And I pull up to a place
26:03
I'm like, what the fuck, it's this huge
26:05
theater. And like the sort
26:07
of thing where you gotta park down the street and I
26:09
walk in and I'm like, can I talk to Deb and I
26:12
gotta walk, oh there's a guy here
26:14
wants to talk to Deb. And then I
26:16
go, I'll go ask her like that sort of shit. And I like
26:18
have to get broke. This is some
26:21
like, she's a fucking star. She's
26:23
like, she is like a super
26:26
like unbelievable musical
26:28
theater person who got
26:31
cast in this thing that this
26:33
whole time I was too stupid
26:35
to even ask, are
26:37
you good at it? And
26:41
she's whatever, she's fantastically
26:43
talented, which A
26:46
is a bonus because I haven't been to,
26:48
I mean, it's great, but I haven't been
26:50
to my other favorite type of musical theater,
26:53
which is small
26:55
town, small community,
26:59
patched together music.
27:01
That's dude, that's like. Get
27:04
the kids in there. Yes, that's like when you
27:06
go like everybody, which would you rather
27:08
do? Would you rather go to a WWE event? Or
27:11
would you rather go to a wrestling event
27:13
at a church in a small town where
27:16
they built a ring and some company that
27:18
tours the tri-state area is coming through? Right,
27:20
yeah, I'd rather do the. Always go to
27:22
be, you always go to be. Yeah,
27:25
that's very true. I actually was lucky enough to see
27:27
Book of Mormon. And there
27:29
is a song, if you have kids listening, fast
27:31
forward 15 seconds. There's a song called. If you
27:33
have kids listening, you're a bad parent. Jesus
27:36
is a cunt. And that's
27:38
the name of the song. And
27:41
they keep repeating it. And
27:43
I am shaking my row, I'm laughing
27:45
so hard. I had no idea this
27:47
is what I was getting into. I
27:49
honestly, and believe it or not, I
27:52
honestly thought that I was going to learn
27:54
something about the Book of Mormon. I thought
27:57
it was going to be not like a
27:59
churchy, Not like this. Humorous
28:01
but informative. Yeah. And I
28:03
was laughing so hard that the seats
28:05
around me were shaking. And
28:07
the person to my left,
28:11
I did not come with them. Old,
28:14
was not having fun. And me
28:16
laughing was making them extra crappy. Now,
28:19
the person I did go with to
28:21
my right, also not having
28:23
fun. And me laughing
28:25
made it even less fun.
28:27
And so now, I'm like,
28:29
I have insecure giggles. And
28:32
I cannot stop laughing. So anytime anyone
28:34
says anything offensive, I am almost on
28:36
the floor. I'm laughing so hard. It
28:39
was so good. Those dudes that do South
28:41
Park are so smart. It's
28:44
insane. They're the greatest for, in
28:46
my opinion, they are the greatest
28:49
comedic. Storytellers
28:51
is a weird word. But what I mean by
28:53
it is, and everybody
28:55
likes what they like, but for me, I
28:58
like stuff that
29:01
one scene dictates the next.
29:04
And everybody thinks they're masters
29:06
of satire, which they are. Everybody
29:08
thinks they're very funny comedy writers,
29:10
which they are. But every episode
29:12
of South Park, everything they've done,
29:15
or GASMO, baseball, all this
29:18
stuff, Book of Mormon, one
29:22
scene dictates the next. You never feel like
29:24
they're telling a story that goes, and then
29:26
this happened, and then this happened, and then
29:28
this happened. You always feel like they're telling
29:30
a story that goes, but this happened. And
29:33
so now, what's going to happen? I
29:36
just think they're excellent in
29:38
every, I mean, what
29:41
an interesting take. The South Park guys are
29:43
good. Hey,
29:46
everybody. This show is brought to you by
29:49
BetterHelp. It's sponsored by BetterHelp. It's brought to
29:51
you. It's sponsored. It's brought to you. I
29:53
think I nailed it. Hey, it
29:55
says here I'm supposed to talk about something.
29:57
I need to get off my chest. But
29:59
here's the deal. I also don't have to
30:01
get anything. off my chest because I have
30:04
been going to therapy. We all carry around
30:06
different stressors, big and small. When we keep
30:08
them bottled up, it can start to affect
30:10
us negatively. Therapy is a safe space to
30:12
get things off your chest and to figure
30:14
out how to work through whatever's weighing you
30:16
down. I'm telling you, I've talked
30:18
about it on the show all the time.
30:20
I've been working through stuff all the time.
30:22
I hopefully you've heard a change in me
30:24
because I have definitely felt it and I
30:26
know the people around me have felt it
30:28
as well, just from therapy. So
30:31
listen, you know, I
30:33
golf, traffic, my
30:35
kids abandoning me to live their
30:38
lives. You get it. That's
30:40
why I go. So if you're thinking about starting
30:42
therapy, give BetterHelp a try. It's
30:44

30:46

31:15
go to therapy about that because it's somewhere and
31:17
not nowhere. Back to the show. Hey,
31:20
everybody. Have you heard that
31:22
flavored air, the flavored air
31:24
category is quickly becoming the
31:26
leading alternative to vaping and
31:28
smoking? It's a whole new
31:30
movement towards better habits led
31:32
by the sponsor of today's
31:34
program, Fume. When my wife's
31:37
brother was in town, we'd been sent a bunch of
31:39
Fume packets in the device and
31:42
he got pumped. He tried it.
31:44
He loved it. The flavored air
31:47
category is the new
31:49
thing, folks. Fume is an award-winning flavored
31:51
air device. It's not like
31:53
vaping. If vapor was compared to
31:55
sticky soda, Fume cores are closer
31:57
to like herbal teas.
32:00
Fume has a lot of delicious flavors
32:02
to choose from like crisp mint, orange
32:04
vanilla, and on and on. And
32:07
it helps fill the void of ditching a
32:09
bad habit can
32:11
leave. You still have something
32:13
to reach for. There's no batteries, there's no
32:15
toxic flavors, there's no nicotine, there's no vapor.
32:18
Looks awesome. I think that's what Tyler liked
32:20
about it. And
32:22
they continuously invest in third party studies
32:24
to ensure the safety of their products.
32:27

32:57
let me ask you something. So you're going
32:59
to be coming back in the summer and
33:01
stuff like that. Is there anything from the
33:03
Midwest, like any Midwest traditions, anything that you
33:05
only see in the Midwest that you miss?
33:08
But it's maddening, but
33:10
also you miss it because
33:13
it's from your childhood? Because
33:15
what you're saying is I'm coming from Ohio,
33:17
and Ohio even though people think it's in
33:19
the Midwest, it's- It's
33:22
the Eastern time zone. And geographically, it's actually
33:24
in the East, but you and I both
33:26
know it's technically in the South. Yes,
33:28
that's right. Yes.
33:34
I would say, I think
33:37
an easy one is passive aggressiveness. Just
33:41
like good old
33:43
fashioned business
33:45
place. I came in here for
33:47
a service, passive aggressiveness. I think
33:49
that's a good one. Yeah. I
33:52
like a passive aggressive like, oh, I
33:55
didn't know that's where that went. Yeah. You
33:58
know what I mean? Absolutely. It's
34:00
like hey, you don't fucking put that there.
34:02
What are you fucking doing? Yeah, it's oh,
34:04
I didn't know that's where that went Okay,
34:07
so you go. Oh does it go there?
34:09
Oh, I should question everything about my entire
34:11
existence Exactly. My mom I've said
34:13
it a million times when I used to ask
34:15
for rides. She'd go sure
34:19
Which is like ruin the word for me now
34:21
when people say sure I'm like, okay fine. Fuck
34:23
it Yeah,
34:26
so so here's here's my favorite thing the
34:30
the politeness That
34:33
ruins other people's days right,
34:36
I talked in a special of mine dad channels
34:38
about the Person at
34:40
the four-way stop that's like no you go.
34:42
No you go and you're behind him like
34:44
fucking go, dude I
34:47
had the pedestrian version of that. There's a
34:49
place in Fergus Falls called the Viking cafe
34:52
Which has been voted like best breakfast maybe
34:55
best restaurant But for sure best breakfast in
34:57
the state for a bunch of times. It's so
34:59
good It's like, you know, you go to LA
35:01
and you go. Hey, can I get some bacon?
35:03
They're like what kind you're like Fucking
35:06
bacon. That's what they have at
35:08
the Viking cafe you go What kind of
35:10
bacons do you have and they're like, oh we have
35:12
bacon bacon and we have pancake pancakes and we have
35:15
ham ham And we have hash
35:17
brown hash browns. There's no like fancy
35:19
name. There's no fucking blueberry marmalade in the
35:21
hash browns It's just you're getting what you're
35:23
getting I mean, you don't have to attack
35:26
the blueberry marmalade, but I agree with the
35:28
overall sentiment But you're getting what you're getting
35:30
right a lot of old's go there tons
35:32
of old's the fact that I haven't watched
35:34
a person die in that
35:37
place is amazing, so there
35:39
is a long hallway because you have to
35:42
go from the restaurant and Then
35:44
there's a long hallway that shares a wall
35:46
with the kitchen and then it's like I'm
35:48
gonna say Yeah 30
35:51
feet Okay, now more
35:53
than that. I'm gonna say it's 50 feet. Okay,
35:55
and you have to go out to the back parking lot So
35:58
I opened the door from
36:00
the restaurant to go towards the parking
36:02
lot. And then a woman
36:04
opened the door, an old woman opened
36:06
the door from the parking lot to
36:08
go into the restaurant. And I go,
36:11
I'll hold it for you. And she
36:13
goes, no, I'll hold it for
36:15
you. And I go, nope,
36:18
I insist. We are holding the
36:20
door. Now people need to get in from her side
36:22
and they need to leave from my side and no
36:24
one's moving. And there's 50 feet
36:27
of just emptiness. And
36:30
it was like, it felt like a,
36:32
you know when you see all the
36:34
horses, like in Braveheart, you have the
36:37
English horses are holding and then Braveheart's
36:39
like, hold, and he's back there. And
36:41
then there's just an empty battlefield. That's
36:43
honestly what it felt like. So
36:47
then we just
36:49
like, just like at a four-way stop when
36:52
two cars start going at the same time.
36:54
And then now everyone's like, well, what the
36:56
fuck, man? You said go. And I said
36:58
go and now we're both going. That's exactly
37:00
what happened. We flooded the hallway with
37:03
people. There
37:05
were probably 10 people in there and
37:07
we are now shimmying and like dicks
37:10
on thighs, boobs on
37:12
shoulders. It was so
37:14
ridiculous. If one person just would
37:17
have walked, but that's not how
37:19
it works. In the Midwest, you go, I'll
37:21
hold it for you. Nope, me. And then
37:23
the next thing you know, you're just shimmying.
37:26
Dude, I was in
37:28
the middle of it all, just started maniacally
37:30
laughing. As you're rubbing a
37:32
dick on a stranger's thigh to try to get
37:34
by him. Yeah, just laughing. You're like, oh, that's
37:36
what the fifth pocket's for. I
37:42
think it's impressive that the two of
37:44
you are not sitting there dying,
37:47
still holding the doors. Like it's one
37:49
of those last hands on a Kia
37:51
Sorento contest at a mall. Yep, yes,
37:54
absolutely right. Just like, I'm not, I
37:56
have to pee. Oh, oh, not anymore.
37:58
There's something about... Just wet pants like
38:00
you took a picture with a porn
38:02
star? There's
38:07
something about... I
38:09
know most people don't want help. Some
38:13
of us really want help, but you want
38:15
help when you say, I want help. I
38:19
think uninvited help to so
38:21
many people feels like an
38:23
insult of your capabilities. If
38:26
you are power ranking the
38:28
people who take an offer for help as
38:31
an insult, I think
38:34
number one... It's
38:36
not even close. Our guys with those nut sacks
38:38
hanging off their trucks. But
38:42
I don't know how far below it. It
38:45
is 60 plus
38:48
year old women from the upper
38:50
Midwest. You
38:53
cannot help... If
38:56
you dare assist
38:58
one of these old crows and
39:01
in some way insinuate that they can't
39:03
shovel their own driveway... Because you know
39:05
their family's been trying to put them
39:07
in assisted living for quite some time.
39:10
You know their family... And they just have
39:13
to keep proving it, yeah. Grandpa Frank died
39:15
years ago and it doesn't matter that all
39:17
her kids get together and they keep throwing
39:19
mini interventions to try to move her into
39:22
a place where other old people play cards
39:24
until they pass away. And
39:26
you know that she has that feeling like
39:28
if I let this doorway... Like it's a
39:30
prank show. She goes, okay, you
39:32
hold it for me. And then her kids pop out
39:35
of the walls. We told you. And
39:37
then they put her in a van. These
39:40
old women in the
39:42
upper Midwest hold on to that
39:45
and refuse help in a way like
39:47
very few people out on the
39:51
planet earth in my opinion. I
39:53
agree because if you do hold the door and they
39:55
take it, all of a sudden they're like, oh you
39:57
need someone to hold the door for you? to
40:00
the retirement center. Give
40:02
us your driver's license. Give
40:04
it here. So I've
40:06
also noticed, like
40:09
I had this conversation with a woman once, I
40:11
said, do you need help with your groceries? Because
40:13
I just had one bag. I'm like, do you
40:15
want me to carry these two bags? And she
40:17
was like, I don't need help carrying my groceries.
40:20
And I was like, OK, but chivalry's
40:22
dead. And who's to blame?
40:25
It's me? I'm to blame for chivalry being
40:27
dead? Or are you yelling at me for
40:30
asking if you needed help? Is
40:32
to blame for chivalry being dead? Because
40:34
I think it goes generational.
40:37
I think you have millennials. A lot
40:39
of female millennials will not accept help as
40:41
far as putting the suitcase up on
40:44
the plane. I've noticed Gen
40:46
Z will. And I don't
40:48
know if they're lazier. I
40:50
don't know if they're terrified because I am
40:52
an older man. Let's
40:54
talk about younger generations as
40:57
an older generation. What a
40:59
fun pastime. I
41:01
think, because I don't even
41:03
know what they are. I don't know exactly what age Gen Z
41:07
is, where a millennial starts in Gen Z
41:09
is. But
41:11
let me frame
41:14
this right. Uh-oh,
41:17
somebody's about to get canceled
41:19
up in this bed. No,
41:22
no, no. The thing I wanted to
41:24
say was I think it's important to hang out
41:26
with young people. But
41:29
I think you've got to be careful
41:32
about how that comes out. So
41:34
I wanted that minute to say it exactly
41:36
like I just said it. It's important to
41:38
start. I got lucky that Ethan, my nephew
41:41
Ethan, and my niece Ellie were
41:43
younger than me, but not so much younger
41:46
than me that now I'm this age and
41:48
they're 12 or 14. They're
41:51
Ethan 30, I think. You
41:54
have that. That's when I'm turning
41:56
29, he's 19. So
41:58
you have a glimpse into. what that
42:01
universe, because too many people get
42:03
older and they're like, fuck kids today.
42:06
And I think that's so
42:08
uninteresting to me. I
42:10
think, you know, you don't have
42:12
to worry about what sort of art they like, it's
42:14
fine. And so I just,
42:17
I think it's, I always think it's, you
42:20
should always find a way to,
42:22
in a non, you don't wanna be like, let
42:24
me see your kids. But I think it's important
42:26
to be around and just let young people talk
42:29
and then be like, oh, interesting.
42:31
And here's what I, here's what
42:33
is my understanding of
42:35
Generation Z is, I
42:38
think they don't care about all of our shit.
42:42
And everybody above them. I
42:44
think from boomer through millennial, there
42:46
is so much drama. It's like
42:48
when you go to a family
42:51
reunion or like
42:53
Thanksgiving and you have the uncle
42:55
who's speaking politics and the young
42:57
daughter who's arguing with him and
42:59
the dad who's saying how things
43:01
used to be and the
43:04
brother who's like, you would never survive
43:06
in my job. And then the cousin
43:08
who's like eight years younger than the
43:10
two things, he just went on a
43:12
walk, smoked up a little bit and
43:14
he's eating his turkey, watching the parade,
43:16
just giggling to himself. That's Gen Z.
43:18
I think there's, I think it has
43:21
been so exhausting to listen to
43:23
the boomers through Gen,
43:27
through the millennials discuss each
43:29
other as though they're the problem
43:31
that they, I just think
43:33
they're in a different universe. Yeah,
43:35
I think that Gen Z would
43:38
rather not listen to millennial or
43:40
Gen X or boomer, whatever the
43:42
other one is past boomer. Greatest
43:44
generation. Greatest generation. I think
43:46
they would rather listen to greatest generation because
43:49
greatest generation isn't like, here's
43:51
what's wrong with this country. Greatest
43:54
generation is like, this house wasn't even
43:56
here when I was a boy. What
43:58
do you think a new generation- It was far more. What
44:00
do you think a new generation has to do
44:02
to be put in
44:05
that goat conversation? Obviously
44:07
we're having the LeBron Jordan conversation.
44:09
What is the new generation? Are
44:13
people too sensitive? Are we
44:15
never going to have another greatest generation? You're
44:17
never going to have a greatest generation because
44:20
that was about liberating the world. That was
44:22
about liberating an entire group of people. That
44:24
was about coming in and being the- Was
44:26
it though? It was about coming in and
44:28
being the- That's the story we tell. Yeah, but I mean about
44:30
a war. That's
44:33
the story you're going to get. You
44:35
have this- I know. I'm
44:37
really big into, as you know, saying
44:40
stuff that people hate. Keep going. Oh,
44:43
believe me. There were people writing letters
44:45
over fighting. They made it through D-Day and
44:48
their first letter home was like, they didn't
44:50
let the black people in the school yet,
44:52
did they? I get it. I understand where
44:54
you're coming from. There's a really great documentary.
44:58
You know me, I'm boring. I've
45:00
watched most of Ken Burns' stuff. There's
45:04
a really interesting- I don't know how that's boring. He's
45:06
rad. He's the king. But
45:08
I don't think, I don't, yeah, whatever. Why
45:11
am I being self-deprecating about this? Because that's what
45:13
you do all the time. You always have to-
45:15
Oh, is it Chad? Yeah, you son of
45:17
a bitch. Is it? You have to
45:19
preface everything with, hey, I know this isn't
45:21
cool, but this is something I
45:23
did. I know you're not
45:25
going to like this. I know this is automatically a
45:27
no, but I'm just going to tell you anyways so
45:30
then you have the information to say no. Yes,
45:32
exactly. And perhaps that's a
45:34
reflection of my experience and the
45:37
way I feel about myself in
45:39
today's day and age. Now-
45:42
Suck it up, butter cop. I'm a boomer. Have
45:45
you? Have you? Have
45:47
you seen, he did one a couple years ago
45:50
called the US and the Holocaust? Okay.
45:53
Oh, it is. It's
45:58
not quite as good as the video. Vietnam
46:00
one because I mean, cause that one is
46:03
it's, that's just, you have people who
46:05
experienced it from all sides actually speaking
46:07
to a camera, but it is, if
46:09
you want a, you
46:12
know, a non political, non
46:15
agenda based understanding of
46:18
the United States and how it existed entering World
46:23
War II and the Holocaust, it's
46:26
pretty good. It's pretty informative. I
46:28
bet. Yeah. He's, he's one of
46:30
the best. He's the king. So
46:33
anyways, to answer your question, I think
46:35
that Gen Z they could cure cancer
46:38
or they could stop global warming or
46:41
they could do a whole bunch of
46:43
stuff that would put them in the
46:45
conversation for greatest generation.
46:48
And there are so many people that
46:50
go, well, we need cancer. We
46:52
need cancer to sell the drugs. And there's so many
46:55
people that go global warming isn't real. They didn't fix
46:57
anything. They just said they did. So
47:00
I don't, I don't think there's ever going to be
47:02
a greatest anything ever again. I think,
47:05
you know, just waiting for the
47:07
sun to burn out, dude. So we all
47:09
freeze. Well, I saw Dennis
47:11
Quaid on a podcast talking about some
47:14
sort of solar flare that's
47:16
going to shut down our electrical grid. So,
47:19
God I hope so. That's going to take care of our debt,
47:21
right? I mean, it
47:23
has, it would have to, you would assume, you,
47:26
you would assume at that point, all that
47:28
matters is property and bullets. So
47:32
God damn, is that the name of
47:34
my new album? Not
47:37
my comedy album. My,
47:39
it's my, I'm actually, I'm going on, Hey, I
47:41
need to tell everybody this. And then I want
47:44
to, don't let me forget what I was going
47:46
to say about the younger generation. Okay. I'm
47:49
planning a tour. Yeah, you are. I'm
47:52
going to get not just like a two city tour,
47:54

47:56

49:35
it be the only one they have open? Don't they
49:37
like book that in segments the guy? The
49:40
guy books the whole year in three days.
49:42
That's whatever. That's the interesting part about that
49:44
class boss move It is
49:47
a boss move. So I'm gonna tell you two
49:49
things to end the show Okay,
49:52
one three things because of the younger generation. So the
49:54
younger generation is one of the two things So
49:57
I really I really my favorite thing
49:59
is the know Nobody wants to work
50:01
conversation. I love it. And I love
50:04
stirring it up. I love being in
50:06
the center of it. You could be
50:08
talking, you could be talking about how
50:11
great of a business that you went
50:13
into today. And if we're in a
50:15
group of people, I'm still gonna go, yeah, but nobody wants
50:17
to work. I love it. I
50:20
can shoehorn that into any party
50:23
ever and just watch everyone spin.
50:26
Now, have I told you about what somebody
50:29
wrote on my, what was on
50:31
my Jiffy Lube? My
50:34
Jiffy Lube transmission
50:36
fluid. But I
50:39
don't often see you holding something for
50:41
this program. So I'm excited to hear what's on there.
50:44
So I went in, had
50:47
a bunch of stuff done. Got my oil
50:49
change, check my air filter, check my wiper
50:51
blades, break fluid level transmission fluid,
50:53
you know, the run them up. I got
50:55
the run them all. Pat
50:57
Summerall, run them all. Guns and bullets and property. I
50:59
don't remember what the album was called. Anyways, I think
51:01
that album should be a spoken word. I think I
51:03
should also go on a spoken word. You said two
51:06
things. You said two things, dial it in ADHD. Here
51:08
we go. I know, don't you
51:10
fucking dare. I'll call Kelsey and
51:13
your mom and I'll hand them
51:15
a book of evidence. Keeping
51:19
it to myself, cause I want to keep you
51:21
wild and free. I
51:24
want you to be like that grizzly bear. They're like, why
51:26
is his hair so patchy? So
51:30
on the bottom of the Jiffy Lube work
51:32
order that
51:37
they hand to you, the invoice, where it says your
51:39
price and everything, they have this
51:41
thing that says messages. You can see it
51:43
right there. It says little column that says
51:45
messages and they
51:47
have some things down there. Like
51:50
a shop supplies fee of $4 may
51:53
be added to your invoice
51:55
to cover non-itemized supplies. If
51:58
you had your wheels, tires, or bike. break serviced
52:00
please return in 50 miles to have your lug
52:03
nuts retorked.
52:06
And then, oh man, you ever had your lug nuts
52:08
torqued? Daddy. My stepmom
52:10
did that once. So
52:13
right in this message, somebody
52:15
just wrote the words. No
52:17
one wants to work. Like
52:22
it's Jiffy Lube slogan. Sorry
52:26
it took so long brother. I ain't
52:28
nobody want to work. Oh
52:30
God. That's great. Uh, last thing.
52:32
So I've been trying to name the
52:34
tour, which you can get your city
52:37
on by texting show to two zero
52:39
two seven, seven one five one seven
52:41
one. Uh, and
52:43
I knew you wouldn't help me because
52:45
you often ask me about two. I
52:47
think a big secret is naming a
52:49
tour is the most. One
52:52
of the more unenjoyable parts of
52:55
performing and going on tour. It's
52:57
difficult. So I
53:00
outsourced it to friends.
53:04
And if you are a long time
53:06
listener of this program, you remember Joseph
53:08
Matthew Gill. Yeah. And
53:11
you also remember that Cy outsources most things
53:13
to his friends. He
53:15
was a single episode producer
53:18
of middle of somewhere. Uh,
53:21
he's a close friend of Madonna
53:23
scale, Ethan's. And so I threw
53:25
into the chat with he and
53:27
Ethan, I need a tour name. I don't
53:29
have any, uh, and
53:31
I don't want it to do anything to do with
53:34
the material or I just a bland normal to her
53:36
name. Um, and
53:38
Ethan wrote, cause he knew what was
53:40
going to happen. Okay. Okay. I
53:43
look forward to Joe's suggestions. And
53:47
then for three days, I got
53:50
peppered with suggestions. Are you ready?
53:52
You did. I am absolutely ready.
53:55
First one he eased in
53:58
just cause he's always, he's. He's always
54:00
trying to undermine anything I've created. Like
54:02
my two albums were called Love Sick
54:04
and Toledo on Monday night. He's always
54:06
trying to undermine him by minimalizing him
54:09
through jokes. But his first was
54:11
something simple, Love Sick and Toledo
54:13
on Monday night. And
54:15
I was just like, okay, he's being a dick
54:17
in this. He's gonna put one suggestion in and
54:20
then he's gonna move on. That was lazy. Joe's
54:23
better than that. He's clearly busy. And then
54:25
wham, here we go. All
54:27
American penis. Bucking, cucking
54:30
and keep on trucking. Hello,
54:32
are you there? It's me,
54:34
jokes. Sleepless
54:37
in Bill Cosby's house. Dude,
54:40
where's my cardigan? A Bronx tail.
54:42
Cancel this bitches. Who
54:44
let the jokes out? Who, who, who,
54:47
who? Cy
54:49
Amundsen, wit happens. No jokes
54:52
left behind. For whom the
54:54
bell giggles. Chad's
54:56
friend. Fat
55:02
clouds, bigger gaffes. No
55:05
vaping inside the bus. Ghost
55:07
riding the quips. Black Larry
55:10
Bird. Special comedy
55:12
from a special boy. I truck you fuck. Bricked
55:18
up in boy town. The
55:22
R Kelly of comedy. Size cries
55:24
lies in cream pies. Hunter Biden's
55:27
bunter hiding. Blink 42069. Field
55:32
of, in parentheses, homoerotic and confusing
55:34
dreams. Laugh so you
55:36
don't sigh. The nine out of 11
55:38
tour. The sum of
55:41
all queers. More than Jake.
55:43
Thick girls don't cry.
55:45
White chocolate thunder. Unabombing. Less
55:50
than or equal to Jake. Incredulous
55:52
at Denny's. Precisely equal to Jake. To
55:56
Jake. This
55:59
one. just says the words Fox
56:02
Jeffworthy. You
56:04
know the show Wildin' Out? He
56:06
suggested Wildin' Closeted. Longtime,
56:08
no talk, Mr. Epstein.
56:10
And then the
56:13
American Boy Doll tour, the
56:15
Petty Townie tour, the Save
56:17
Our Quiznos tour, Stars
56:19
and Grapes Forever. And then I just
56:22
said after three days, I was like,
56:24
that's enough? Almost
56:26
three days, zero
56:28
help. And all he wrote
56:31
back was the Ungrateful Comic
56:33
tour, the Hurtful Friend
56:35
tour, the Tasteless Man
56:37
tour. And then he
56:40
ended with three words that
56:43
I don't know how it's never been
56:46
put together given the pop
56:48
culture phenomena, but he said, the
56:50
Insane Clown Pussy tour. So
56:54
I'm not, I don't know what I'm going to name it, but
56:57
text me.
