2:00

Same color, same color. When your dad had a talk

2:02

show? No, he didn't have a talk show.

2:04

Oh, you didn't have a talk show. Man with a suit. Oh, it was just

2:06

a gray suit. Just a gray suit. Wait,

2:08

you could have mentioned this maybe

2:11

nine months ago to me, maybe. Then

2:13

like, give him a different suit or

2:15

something, perhaps. Why? Because

2:19

now you're saying it's the Eric Andre suit. You're

2:21

saying that. Well, that's just what we've always, you've always called

2:23

it. From the beginning you were like, I have to have

2:25

an Eric Andre suit. I'm

2:29

pretty black. You were like, people need

2:31

to know that this is the Eric Andre suit. People

2:33

need to know it's the Eric Andre suit. It is

2:36

true. I don't know, Adam. I thought maybe we should

2:38

try to do our own thing. And you said, what

2:40

do you talk, what is your own thing? He talked

2:42

me down from the idea of calling the suit. I

2:44

literally have never come up with

2:47

a single, I don't even know what

2:49

it means to come up with my own idea.

2:51

He did talk me down from the idea of

2:53

calling the suit the Eric Andre suit. I think

2:55

it would have been tacky. You were like, nobody's

2:57

ever done that before. It's like Eric Andre did

2:59

it. And you were like, literally when? Yeah.

3:02

When? No. I don't watch things. I think

3:04

you stole that from Eric Andre. I watched

3:06

things. I didn't even say that.

3:09

I don't watch things. How am I supposed to

3:11

know? And then you started screaming. I

3:13

didn't scream at it. You were like, no. That's

3:17

a singing. That's singing. No, you were screaming. That's

3:19

singing. You were screaming at the top of your

3:21

mind. OK, would you tell the Vienna Boys Choir

3:23

that they're screaming? I don't

3:26

even know. Who did Joy? What is it, Vienna

3:28

Boys? I'm thinking of a high pitched choral

3:31

singing. Oh,

3:33

that's a screamer sing to you. You

3:35

can call it whatever you want. But

3:37

you started doing that. And then. So

3:40

Christmas is right around the corner. And then Dave

3:42

quit. No, that's not true. Dave

3:44

did not quit. I can't deal with my show.

3:46

Dave did not quit. Dave. I

3:48

don't know how to hear it. Dave, somebody else have a

3:51

Dave. And it was a quit. And he's screaming at me.

3:53

And I'm like, I don't like that. And you were like,

3:55

he keeps saying it's singing. He's

3:57

screaming at me. No. I

4:00

did sing it in a couple times, I didn't

4:03

sing it in but it was not screaming for

4:05

sure. And it was not in the high pitched

4:07

voice. It was, you

4:09

know, go to sleep, go

4:11

to sleep. Why

4:14

is your hair all matted down? Matted

4:16

down? It looks like you put shampoo

4:18

in your hair and then didn't wash it out. I

4:21

don't know. I wear a hat? Matted

4:24

down. I wear a hat on the way here

4:26

maybe. I have hat head maybe. What

4:30

should I put a little bit more volume? My

4:33

hair? It's there or somewhere? No,

4:35

it's like mushed down. I mushed

4:37

it with a hat bro. You know I wear it.

4:39

I'm just asking. I don't even know the answer. Listen,

4:42

the bigger the show gets the more... So

4:45

Hanukkah's coming out. So Hanukkah's on Friday,

4:47

Christmas is a couple weeks away. So

4:50

today we're talking about our favorite gift

4:52

options for the year. Is that right?

4:57

That I would like? Yeah, that you would like. I

5:04

don't know. I don't really think there's anything. If I

5:06

want something I just go get it. And then

5:09

I kind of... The first two years of the

5:11

podcast I got all the things

5:13

that I wanted. PS5? PS4? PS5

5:16

is the last of the things. You got

5:18

an OLED TV? Or

5:20

not OLED? I do not have an OLED TV. What is yours? I

5:23

have a Sony

5:26

Z9D. Which

5:30

is a F-A-L-D display TV. We've

5:32

been over this a bunch. Sorry?

5:35

Well you got a television? You don't know anything

5:37

about TVs. You'll like read Wirecutter for like a

5:39

week and be like, I know

5:42

everything about fucking blenders. It's like

5:44

there's a whole world of people

5:48

that read these reviews all the

5:50

time. They're involved in the world. And

5:53

now because you decided it's time for you to

5:55

have an air fryer. I

5:57

don't know dude. It's like the sickest... I

6:01

did get a new one. An

6:03

air fryer? I got like a new toaster

6:05

of an air fryer combo. Yeah right, exactly.

6:08

Exactly, you got a combo unit and you're

6:10

like this is the best one. I

6:14

didn't check a wire cutter on

6:16

that one. I

6:19

gotta say, a wire cutter does not have a

6:21

good hit rate. I gotta say

6:23

50% of the stuff I've gotten that they've

6:25

recommended is probably crap. And

6:27

I don't understand the amount of time they have in,

6:30

they're like we have 7000 experts. What

6:33

was that website originally, it was like how to

6:35

steal cable or something? Was that what it was?

6:37

Oh I'm like cutting the wire. That

6:41

makes sense. I never put that

6:43

together in my mind. Yeah I think

6:45

it was like digital TV antenna reviews

6:47

or something. Really? Because when

6:49

they switched over from old broadcast TV to

6:52

the new digital shit that kind of ruined

6:54

the experience of broadcast

6:56

television, which used to be

6:58

it's like fuzzy and you gotta play with the... Yeah

7:01

the bunny ears. Yeah. We

7:03

used to have that at our house growing up. I mean everybody

7:05

did. We're old. No no,

7:07

a lot of people's parents had cable. A lot

7:09

of people's parents paid their bills on time. Anyways,

7:15

then when they switched it over to the new

7:17

shit and then it's like you didn't have the right reception,

7:20

then you would just get like

7:22

green squares or whatever instead of the fuzz

7:25

or it would like stop or glitch out. And

7:28

then a lot of, you know they added

7:31

channels but then also the guide, it was presented

7:33

as, there was like, I don't know if it was

7:35

wire cutter but people would be

7:37

like check out this hack, you don't even need

7:39

cable, you can get all these channels for free.

7:41

And it's like, yeah it's just network

7:44

television. They already had that. It's

7:47

like stop paying for gas by fucking riding

7:49

the bus or walking to work. Yeah.

7:54

And bounce TV as well. Yeah.

7:57

Have you ever watched any of those channels? Like 7.7?

8:00

3 and stuff. It's just pretty

8:02

much law and order SVU reruns all day long.

8:04

There's like a

8:09

black one that's like... I have cable now.

8:11

I don't have cable. I do have a digital antenna

8:13

actually, but I don't really use it. I just

8:16

use a login. I pay for

8:19

streaming services and stuff. I

8:21

can watch events for free. Or not

8:23

for free. I pay for it, but I can watch them over stream.

8:26

But, my internet, not to work,

8:32

I do have a digital antenna. But it does kind of

8:34

suck. You do actually have to kind of move it around.

8:36

But it gets glitchy. Oh, it's on... I'm sorry. What?

8:45

I didn't mean to put it on the... We'll talk about

8:50

that later. Yeah, later.

8:53

We'll talk about that shit later. Anyway,

8:57

yeah, so we're talking Christmas gifts. So you feel

8:59

like you have everything you want. Yeah,

9:02

but would it be good gifts for people?

9:04

Yeah, so like a lot of these people

9:06

don't have good relationships with... Well, I'll pass

9:08

on... I'll steal a recommendation. It's a recommendation

9:11

from whichever one was

9:13

the pedophile guy on MythBusters. Okay.

9:16

So, you use a...

9:20

an optical center punch. What

9:22

is that? It's like a bomb

9:25

sight center punch. What is

9:27

a center punch? A center punch is

9:29

like if you need to put a drill hole

9:31

in something beforehand, you use

9:33

a center punch so that the bit

9:36

centers. Oh, okay. Also, it

9:38

has like a laser that goes on

9:40

the wall? There's no laser. It's a little...

9:42

it's like a little bomb sight you look through. Oh.

9:48

And it makes a mark on the wall? It

9:50

does not make a mark on the wall. No.

9:53

Instead of just using your eye and hitting a center punch, it's

9:56

got a... like a... a little

9:58

glass tube that you can use. you can

10:00

look through and then

10:02

it magnifies the area underneath

10:05

the cup and

10:07

then once it's centered you pull the

10:09

glass out, put the center punch in and then you

10:12

hit it. So that's my recommendation also. But

10:15

that's just passed on from the myth

10:17

buster that got it. Was that one

10:20

of the things you predicted correctly? What?

10:23

That they were pedophiles? I don't know

10:26

if I predicted that. You

10:28

don't think you did? Let me see. That's

10:30

buster Jamie? Is that his name? Was it

10:32

Jamie or Adam? Adam. Could have been

10:34

Adam. That guy's got a really awesome name. Adam, which one

10:36

is pedophile? Which one is pedophile? And

10:39

he gave his recommendation after he

10:42

caught the case or this is

10:44

something he's been recommending for

10:57

a while. I'm pretty confused about what you're saying.

11:03

The myth buster I guess didn't like each other.

11:06

Oh really? Which

11:13

one is pedophile? I can't find it. The information

11:15

is not. I think it's Adam. Adam

11:22

suggested, our Adam Ginsberg, he

11:24

suggested that an answer to

11:27

our Adam is not. Answer to

11:29

our problem with our

11:31

brain, how

11:35

we've lost our sharpness intellectually.

11:39

Myth buster star explains how the

11:41

co-host survived 14 seasons without

11:43

getting along. We're not friends.

11:47

He said that after the other guy was a

11:49

pedophile? I don't know which one is a pedophile.

11:53

I've told you multiple times. I thought you

11:55

googled which one is a pedophile. And it

11:57

did not give me an answer. Really?

12:00

So maybe neither of them are and we're

12:02

kind of making some claims that are unfair.

12:04

It's called an optical center punch. I don't

12:06

know what else to tell you. Which one

12:08

recommended it? I

12:10

don't know but as you notice the show's

12:14

logo is presented to you on this

12:16

beautiful graphite

12:18

colored sea salt frame. Yes,

12:21

that is correct. This

12:23

nice texture to it. Look at that. There's like

12:25

a tactile thing I'm getting out of this. Yeah.

12:27

I'll touch it. You tell people what it is.

12:29

No, it is nice. It has like a kind

12:32

of... While I'm touching it, you can tell people

12:34

what it is. What is that? Oh, look. Alright

12:40

folks, so today's episode is... We

12:42

were talking about holiday gifts. The

12:45

holidays are coming around and

12:47

it's all about connecting with loved ones.

12:50

There's no better way to do that

12:52

than with a digital picture frame from

12:54

Aura Frames. Wire cutter.

13:00

Called it the best digital frame. And

13:03

this is one of the ones that got right. And it's

13:05

easy to see why. You can upload your favorite

13:07

pics of the family to one frame, relive

13:10

all those happy moments, or share

13:12

big news. Like the

13:14

addition of... Like

13:16

a new addition of the family, perhaps? Nick,

13:19

that could be a good idea. You

13:23

give your parents a picture of this and then

13:25

you have your new adopted son. A

13:27

picture of him. They open it up

13:29

and they say, who the hell is that? You say, that's my

13:31

son that I've legally

13:33

adopted. Your father, he puts

13:36

his hands over his mouth, he starts leaping, tears

13:39

covering down his face. There you go. Throw that one

13:41

in there. There

13:43

he is. He adopted. He was texting to

13:45

me? He adopted. Texted to me? Yeah. Alright,

13:48

so I'll show you how easy it is. You have the

13:50

Aura Frame app. Nick is

13:53

going to text me this picture. I'm

13:55

connected to the app, unfortunately.

14:00

So... Yeah,

14:03

we had Adam try out the

14:05

dude... So, listen, folks, I'm really

14:07

bad at phones

14:10

and apps. You know that, right? So,

14:13

look how easy it is for even a

14:16

guy like me to use. So,

14:19

Nick has just sent me a picture of his new adopted

14:21

son. I have added

14:24

it to

14:26

the AuraFrame

14:30

app, and now... Now,

14:35

here we have it, Nick's adopted son. So,

14:38

you want to practice? Let's just do

14:40

it, practice. Nick, you have... I

14:43

want you to put in more pictures to add in there. No, but I

14:45

want you to put it like this. I'm going

14:47

to play your father. I'm going to play your father and

14:49

your happy family. I'm going to say,

14:51

guys, happy holidays. Holidays are all about

14:53

love, etc. etc. And I want to

14:55

show you something. I got you this... Happy

14:57

Hanukkah. I've gotten you this picture

15:01

frame. Now, Nick... Of

15:04

our son. Nick, what the

15:06

hell... My son, he's a comedian, folks.

15:09

So, what the hell are you... What

15:11

the hell are you getting me this picture

15:13

of this guy, this little guy for? This

15:17

is our new adopted family member. You

15:23

got to... You got to... I told... If you want

15:25

to do a whole bit, I sent you pictures to

15:27

put in there. I got it. You skip the step,

15:30

or you put them in there. All

15:32

right. Clear out the other ones, put the

15:34

new ones in. Okay. All right. All right.

15:36

Let's take that again. Let's

15:39

take that again. Here,

15:43

we're going to... We're

15:48

going to take these off of the slideshow.

15:56

All right. And Nick

15:58

just sent you a picture. Let me get

16:01

a couple of new

16:04

pictures. So right now what I'm doing is

16:06

I'm showing you how easy, how the hell

16:08

easy it is to use this.

16:14

I just added two new photos to

16:16

the frame and

16:18

those should be active now, Nick. So then

16:21

you have, who is that now? Nick, who

16:23

the hell is that? This is Chapo Trap

16:25

House host Will Manner. So the camera that

16:28

is our friend Will and you know that it's nice to keep

16:30

in touch with

16:36

your friends. Sometimes you can't get, you can't talk to

16:38

them on the phone. So you get a nice picture

16:40

of them in your art. I

16:43

gotta say this doesn't really look like a digital,

16:45

there is something that looks like

16:47

not a digital image. It does

16:49

look like a photograph to

16:52

some extent. Maybe I'm a stupid guy but

16:54

that communicates in my mind like a photograph

16:56

in the lighting right now. I

16:59

think there's maybe minimal backlight or something. Maybe

17:01

minimal backlight. It kind of seems like. Now

17:05

when you go to this one there's a heart that comes up.

17:07

I don't know. Will

17:10

we love him. Long

17:13

press shared

17:15

by Adam. So

17:18

these are a picture of our friend Will. And

17:22

then that's your son. And

17:26

that's your son. And back to your son. It

17:28

seems like it's a little you've randomized this. I

17:31

don't understand why it's not in an order. I'm

17:34

gonna have to fuss with the settings guys. So

17:36

this is basically that's how easy it is to

17:38

use. You have an app on

17:40

your phone connected via Bluetooth and

17:42

then we can have pictures and memories with us all day

17:44

long. And I'm sure we can time

17:47

out how long each photograph is

17:49

up and when it's randomized.

17:51

Whether or not it's randomized. Guys

17:55

wire cutter says this is the best digital photo

17:58

frame. They can't be wrong. They

18:00

have experts over there. So

18:02

if it's not personal enough, you could even upload a

18:05

video message to play. You know that? So

18:08

you want to send me a video that I

18:10

can maybe upload on that? All

18:17

right. I mean, I guess, yeah, I'll try and

18:20

find a video to send it again. I mean,

18:22

we could show it. On short notice, I'll try

18:24

to find the video. Well,

18:27

it doesn't have to be short. I

18:29

mean, I could look for a video, too. I mean, no.

18:33

I mean, we're mid, no, it's fine.

18:35

You're doing something here, and now you're

18:37

talking about, oh, we'll just send the

18:40

video. Well, send me a video. We

18:42

can show how that works. I

18:47

don't know. I think that's a good idea. Here, I got

18:49

some videos up. All right, I'll put a video

18:51

in there. You

18:59

should call it Aura Frames, by the way,

19:02

everybody. Aura Frames. Aura.

19:05

Aura. That's

19:07

what I'm saying, Aura. Aura.

19:11

You say Aura. It's Aura Frames. They

19:13

have a pronunciation class. So

19:17

here's a video. I

19:21

don't know. So here's a video of me. We'll

19:24

do this one, huh? I'll put this up on my

19:26

Aura Frames. Put

19:30

this on Aura. Here.

19:37

So I've prepared it, added it here,

19:42

and then do you have

19:45

a video? There? He? Do

19:48

you have a video? He. All

19:50

right, and I'm

19:53

going back. So I've uploaded it to the Aura Frames

19:55

app. Where

20:00

is it? Whatever

20:02

so you can put a video in it. I Will

20:07

show you the next time they advertise with

20:10

You play a video message on the frame as

20:12

soon as they plug it in. Oh, okay So

20:14

Nick this is this is what you're gonna want

20:16

to do. You don't want to make a video

20:19

say mom dad I've got news

20:21

for you. It's the holidays, right? Here. We're

20:23

gonna put this one in there. Okay Send

20:26

20:28

the fun trick is they can have this in

20:31

the box You put the video message in

20:33

it as a gift they plug it in then

20:35

you say mom dad This

20:37

24:23

I forgot how much fun that first

24:25

movie is what is it

24:27

it's I might watch Saw 2 tonight

24:29

yeah yeah I

24:31

watched Chinatown I

24:34

rewatched Chinatown like

24:36

the tenth time okay what does that have to

24:38

do with Saw we're just talking about what movies

24:40

we've been watching all right do you have anything

24:42

to say about rewatching Chinatown this

24:46

time around I was like I

24:48

know I know what that's all about okay so

24:50

nothing yeah I didn't realize the guy in the

24:52

room is the guy that wrote the movie really

24:55

yeah really and the reason it's like

24:57

a guy with like brain cancer is

24:59

because he was like a neurotic and

25:01

he was convinced that he had brain

25:04

cancer really yeah and then he

25:06

was like well what was like what would you

25:08

do if you found out you had brain cancer

25:10

and I guess his instinct was I would kill

25:12

people that didn't take their

25:15

life like

25:17

if they didn't appreciate being alive

25:19

yeah and and

25:22

then so yeah it was like just like

25:24

and then he wrote the movie he sounds

25:26

a real sick and the director is his

25:28

friend who's Chinese and they were Australian he's

25:30

one of those Chinese Australian guys oh

25:33

okay yeah yeah I was

25:35

like oh alright yeah and

25:37

you're like oh I didn't expect that I

25:40

didn't get my shoes off here I didn't

25:42

expect that actually we track any dirt into

25:44

the house yeah yeah

25:48

yeah you know that's a real that's a real

25:50

curveball when you hear that accent coming out no

25:52

I'll tell you what I can stand is anti-Asian

25:55

racism yeah it's

25:58

something really really Really

26:00

gets on my nerves. Yeah Like

26:04

yeah, I guess it would it would if

26:06

you were Asian and Australia especially with all

26:08

the racism They have going on over there.

26:10

Yeah, that erases country. It's a pretty damn

26:13

racist country But

26:15

yeah, I remember when I was there. I was like, oh I

26:17

realized that this is like like

26:20

they were like They're closer to

26:22

Asia. So of course they have more

26:25

Asian immigrants that we do There

26:28

used to be a camera place When

26:31

I was like PA and pick up camera equipment

26:34

And I don't I can't remember where it was somewhere

26:37

around here actually But one

26:39

of the camera technicians was one of those guys

26:42

Asian Australian guy And

26:44

he'd be like alright. This one's all ready to

26:46

go. I'm like That's

26:50

bizarre Yeah, it's

26:52

like it's it's like when you're in Chinatown

26:54

and you see a guy with like a

26:56

real like New York accent But

26:59

he's wearing all like traditional Chinese

27:01

stuff Well,

27:03

you don't ever really see that from sometime.

27:05

Yeah. No, I mean it's different

27:08

than that even it's like it is it's

27:10

jarring and I'm trying to

27:12

think what like a another

27:16

You know like when a car has the wrong horn, it's

27:18

like a look Yeah,

27:21

no like a look kukiracha horn. Yeah Or

27:26

like an a wu-ga when somebody gets a novel That's

27:28

what I was trying to do but my voice came

27:30

out with it and you didn't just say a wu-ga

27:33

Yeah, were that like in the

27:35

in the kind of dick Tracy days everyone had a

27:38

wu-ga is going around That's what

27:40

a horn sounded like. Yeah, that's how racist America

27:42

was So did you say cuz it was it

27:44

was the car was just saying I thought a

27:46

wu-ga was more of a horny noise No, it

27:48

was the n-word. No, I think a wu-ga was

27:50

like guys. No, you would use it to be

27:52

like, oh look out Mmm.

27:56

Oh, see you couldn't make it either. Why don't you

27:58

just say a wu-ga? What? Why don't

28:01

you just say that's what it sounds?

28:03

Yeah, I did say a wuga a

28:05

million times and

28:07

then to demonstrate that's what I was

28:10

trying to do. I was trying to do the real

28:12

wuga came out with a yeah,

28:14

which is way off.

28:16

I understand. I'm not like so I was

28:18

thinking I was just saying before Adam Ginsburg

28:20

might he was suggested that we

28:23

might have long COVID. I don't think

28:25

I have long COVID. I think we

28:27

might have the woman disease. You're saying

28:29

something I think that this is

28:31

I think this might be our cognition. You

28:33

can do something and then you go you

28:36

can do something and then you also did it did

28:38

something wrong. You did something wrong that

28:41

led you to demonstrating that you can't

28:43

do something. Right. And

28:46

then I did something correctly. And

28:48

then after that, or I

28:51

did the right thing and then

28:54

after that did a thing correctly.

28:56

And you acted as if I

28:58

had done something incorrectly, but also

29:00

that I did it in inappropriate

29:03

or an opportune time. Both of

29:05

those are inaccurate. And now you're

29:07

saying we both have long COVID

29:10

in response to you trying to drag me

29:13

down. We're in it together with the long

29:15

COVID and we're going to fight. We're going

29:17

to be fighting this disease. I'm

29:20

not going to, I will not go silent

29:22

into that good night. You know, I've Nick,

29:25

listen, listen, we have a

29:27

long lives. We have our whole lives. We

29:30

have a long life ahead of us. I can't

29:32

even speak man because of the

29:34

long COVID. My speech stuff

29:36

has cleared up. It has? Yes. Why

29:39

did it clear up? I

29:41

don't know. I, it's like, I just haven't

29:43

been stumbling over words anymore. But I think for me,

29:46

it was always a, a like

29:49

health anxiety. I can tell when like

29:51

my head's like, Oh,

29:53

you have this type of cancer.

29:55

And then you would write a movie

29:58

about, about what would you do? What

30:00

would your thought be? If you thought you had

30:02

this type of pain? I think I have this

30:04

pain in my liver, right? Yeah. But

30:06

I'm also like, okay, well, I know I'm

30:08

under a lot of stress and I know

30:10

I will just convince myself of something. So

30:13

no matter how real it feels or

30:15

how many symptoms I have, I

30:18

know that it's just my fucking

30:21

mind convincing me of

30:23

one problem because there's other things

30:25

that I'm not like, you

30:27

know, like I just can't address or fix just

30:29

at the moment because I'm too busy. I've

30:32

been known as eloquent in the past. What?

30:35

I've been referred to as eloquent in the past.

30:38

Yeah, elegant. Eloquent. Yeah,

30:40

people would say they were

30:42

grooming you. No, people were telling

30:44

me I'm eloquent. They would consider you an egg,

30:46

I guess. Yeah,

30:48

they'd sit on me. You know,

30:51

and the egg is the term that

30:53

I believe they use in the... In

30:55

the grooming community? No, not in the

30:57

grooming community, in the... Anyways,

31:02

so today's episode is also brought to you

31:04

by, what's it called? Oh

31:06

my God, today's episode is also brought to

31:08

you... Okay, guys, listen. Today

31:11

we were talking to you about ShipStation, okay?

31:13

The holidays are the busiest time of the

31:15

year. So we don't want you

31:17

to get stuck worrying about shipping

31:19

orders. Listen, we ship stuff for the

31:21

show, right? We ship T-shirts. We

31:24

teach ship mugs, ship yarmulkes for the show. Truth

31:26

be told, I mean, we don't do any of

31:28

the shipping ourselves anymore. We don't do any of

31:30

the shipping. Let's put it this way. You're going

31:32

into e-commerce, and I'll tell you something, I did

31:35

e-commerce myself. The Adam

31:37

Friedland shirts, I think that was

31:39

a waste of money. Yeah,

31:41

we've sold about 30 shirts,

31:44

I think. I mean, for real though, I think

31:47

that was a waste. I

31:49

think we're all right at this point. Give

31:51

me my cut of what I spent on

31:53

that back, because I did not think this...

31:55

I think we... I said,

31:58

do you... I do not think... I don't think... Because

32:00

they're a really stupid idea of

32:02

people wore those to pro pal

32:04

sign rallies It's maybe three people

32:06

did and that was important to

32:08

show the show's logo On

32:11

a Jew first of all that solidarity second of

32:13

all you're getting the name of the show out

32:15

there, okay? I thought so listen we're paying for

32:18

that Yeah, but then why not just buy three

32:20

of them and give them to people because

32:22

I don't know I'm going to those right and by a

32:24

thousand other I don't know who's going to those rallies you

32:27

gotta rock you gotta send Them out you

32:29

gotta send them out and then when is this okay? Maybe you

32:31

want to get into e-commerce Our

32:34

friends at ridge wallet Which

32:38

you know I mean they don't advertise on the

32:40

show anymore but only because we haven't asked them

32:42

to and I think yeah kind of outgrown podcast

32:44

at this point, but You

32:47

know I'd like they date that guy that

32:49

guy Called me up just to

32:51

try to tell hey you should get

32:53

back in the t-shirts because he loves e-commerce When

32:56

he call you up, I don't know like six

32:58

months ago. Okay. I've just had a lot of

33:00

trouble with print shops, but when I Was

33:04

doing it like ship station is the

33:06

that's like the industry standard Yes, if

33:08

you're in e-commerce, so you are you

33:10

kind of already know this so it's

33:12

interesting that they're even advertising It's

33:15

a big deal for us well I mean I

33:18

was surprised when I saw that they

33:20

they that these reads came in because

33:22

I Kids I mean

33:24

you have to use ship station. It

33:26

would be like It'd be

33:29

like if if you I mean it's

33:31

I don't I don't know if they

33:33

even have competition It's just like and

33:35

if they do nobody uses it ship

33:37

station is the way to go It's

33:39

definitely better than Spotify shipping if

33:42

you get into e-commerce Shopify What

33:45

did I say Spotify? Yeah, whatever over

33:47

fucking long? No? I only even years

33:49

ago. I always confuse us, too Yeah,

33:51

I'm on cover I'm

33:53

but it's not that because That's

33:57

that's not necessarily true because the thing What's

34:00

nice about ShipStation is it

34:02

seamlessly and

34:05

effortlessly integrates with

34:08

Etsy, Amazon, Shopify, eBay, more.

34:10

Anything that you sell stuff

34:12

online with, this

34:15

is a product that seamlessly integrates

34:17

with almost. Yeah, the way most

34:19

of these places work is you

34:21

buy orders, come in, and then

34:23

just give you a list of the order and what they bought.

34:26

And let's say you find some success, you're

34:28

new to e-commerce and you

34:31

make, I

34:33

don't know, let's say you make chicken

34:35

tikka masala. You're

34:37

selling that through the mail. No one's ever thought of

34:39

that. Let me sell Indian food through the

34:41

mail. And

34:44

it's because it's a brilliant idea for

34:46

a business. No one's ever thought

34:49

of it before you get 3,000 orders

34:52

and you're doing fulfillment yourself

34:54

and you're just looking at a fucking

34:56

list of orders on Shopify,

34:58

it's a pain in the

35:01

ass. You get ShipStation, you can also

35:03

just set yourself up with one of those little label

35:09

printer so that it'll print

35:11

the shipping label and the pick list. You

35:14

can set all that up through ShipStation.

35:16

It'll buy the fucking, it'll

35:19

buy the postage for the order, that

35:21

prints out the fucking the

35:23

pick list, prints out, you can go to your,

35:25

here's the thing, rip that off, throw it right

35:27

on the poly mailer and then you know exactly

35:30

what the stuff in there, the weights are calculated,

35:32

everything's done. It really

35:34

makes it a lot easier. Yeah,

35:36

so that's the point is that

35:39

it makes all this stuff easy to use.

35:41

35:44

spend a day like doing the art yeah

37:35

I enjoy doing enjoy drawing the shirt

37:37

send it off to the print shop they send

37:39

me you know I would usually buy

37:41

like maybe 1500 to 2500 shirts of whatever

37:46

type and then you

37:48

put it up for sale and at the

37:50

time people were buying them so you get like

37:52

38:04

seven eight days in a row you

38:06

where I was waking up at 5 a.m. And

38:08

I would be bagging shirts and Like

38:11

labeling them and everything yeah, and I would fuck

38:14

it up all the time because I'd have like

38:16

spreadsheets I was trying to do trying to yeah,

38:18

38:20

in my head I just hear the like... I love

40:06

playing factory. Yeah,

40:15

yeah, yeah. That's your factory man. Card dude factory

40:17

man. In fact, now I know I understand. Here's

40:19

the angle on this. I take

40:21

back saying I don't understand why they're

40:24

even advertising. This is not directed

40:26

to anybody that has an e-commerce business. This

40:28

is directed to people that want to play factory.

40:31

Sign up for two months even if you don't even have

40:33

something to sell. Get the

40:36

basic fucking Shopify plan. Do

40:39

drop ship anything. Figure

40:41

out something that... And

40:43

set the prices low so you're not making any money.

40:45

You already get a fucking trial

40:48

anyways and see how

40:51

much you enjoy...

40:53

Playing factory. Playing factory.

40:55

No garbage from your apartment for

40:58

nothing. For nothing. Just

41:01

make the consumers pay or the customers

41:03

pay the shipping costs and

41:05

then upfront investment for the

41:07

little label printer and

41:11

the Bluetooth speaker that's playing

41:13

the powerhouse song. Yeah,

41:17

that's all. All right. 60

41:22

ShipStation. All

41:29

thanks for them. And

41:32

oh, Will. He is

41:34

our friend. It really

41:36

does look nice. Yeah. It

41:40

doesn't look like you got this at CVS for

41:42

your grandma. It's

41:45

a very nice thing. We have some

41:47

nice ads this week. Yeah. Yeah.

41:50

Nice companies. Good companies. They've been nice

41:52

to us. Good companies. Not

41:55

some shady whatever the fuck. Yeah. Some

41:58

nice stuff. If you ever eat any broccoli sprouts... No.

42:01

I try to just get like the right serving

42:03

of vegetables. And usually

42:05

I do a green smoothie, but I've been reading that

42:08

broccoli sprouts are the way to go. But

42:10

they're not either. They look like, you know,

42:12

like, uh, alfalfa sprouts. They look the

42:14

same, but they're, they're different. Uh-huh. I

42:17

mean, they're broccoli sprouts. Where do you get them? Like, play

42:19

health? Them and whole foods sometimes, but I guess you have

42:21

to like the best way you have to just do it

42:23

yourself. You get them. You go to the

42:25

making jars. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

42:28

It takes like a week. You have to buy seeds.

42:30

You buy the seeds. You put the seeds in,

42:32

pour filtered water in there and drain them out. Just

42:35

get them wet and then, you know, leave

42:37

the jar upside down. You don't need mud

42:39

or anything in there. No, no mud, no

42:41

soil. And then, uh, but

42:43

yeah, apparently they're supposed to be really good for you. Really?

42:47

Yeah. Wait, they stick to the bottom of

42:49

the jar and then you put them upside down? Uh,

42:52

well, you kind of want to let it like drain,

42:54

but they stick to the sides and stuff. And

42:57

then they just grow out of the sides? Yeah. And

42:59

then you put a little project. And then you put

43:01

it in the windows too, so it gets

43:04

done? You don't even need that. I don't think.

43:07

Yeah. Really? Yeah.

43:09

Oh, because they're sprouts. And it's good for you?

43:12

Yeah, it's good for you. What does

43:14

it do? It makes your crap nice?

43:16

Oh, it's like the antioxidants and stuff.

43:18

What is it? I never knew what

43:20

antioxidant. Well, there's things that they're free

43:23

radicals. They oxidize or something. And then

43:25

that makes your cells more

43:27

likely to turn into cancer. So

43:30

if you have antioxidants, then it

43:32

doesn't oxidize your cells. I don't

43:34

even like free radicals. I thought they got the

43:36

music in you. No? Very

43:38

funny. Yeah. Good

43:40

job. Reference. This is a

43:42

band. Yeah. Courtney Love

43:44

and Marilyn Madison.

43:49

Yeah. We'll kick your asses.

43:53

Mm hmm. You remember that? Yeah.

43:56

Yeah. Yeah,

43:59

very good. No, I

44:02

mean, yeah, you're just... Oh,

44:05

that was interesting what you were saying,

44:07

I interrupted. Exactly, exactly

44:11

correct. Yeah. What?

44:14

No, it's the free radicals, or

44:18

just like the band. What

44:21

if the thing we were talking about was actually the

44:23

band with the exact

44:25

same name. Yeah.

44:35

Instead of...

44:39

the kind that's about to sell. Anyways, I don't know.

44:42

So what? Do you care or do you don't care? Do you want

44:44

to know about it or not? You

44:46

just said that they're free radicals that

44:48

could be cancer-causing, so you need antioxidants

44:50

to counteract them. Something

44:54

like that, I don't know. And they got the music in them. Now,

45:01

do you want to say some more of the lyrics, too?

45:04

I only know the Courtney-loving Marilyn. Marilyn

45:06

Manson, the beat

45:09

your asses. Do

45:12

you know any of them? Huh? Do you know the lyrics?

45:14

It's a good song. Don't

45:16

think about the man they're gonna

45:18

be. You get what you

45:20

give. You got what you give. Oh,

45:24

you get what you give. Alright.

45:26

Yeah. Do you remember the

45:31

title of the song? I don't remember. I

45:33

just remember they were in the mall. They

45:36

were rocking. It's a good song. That

45:40

was a good era. I feel like that's

45:42

an era that you have some sort of

45:44

affinity for. Yeah, I don't know why. But

45:46

yeah, those years... Late 90s.

45:49

No, it's even past that.

45:52

It's specifically... 2000,

45:56

really. It's just the year 2000. of

46:00

ours would have listened to. I didn't

46:02

have a babysitter. I would listen to,

46:05

I wouldn't even listen to that music.

46:07

It's just the, I think, what year

46:09

is that? You've

46:11

got the music? Probably 2000, 2001. And

46:13

you, you get what you give, song,

46:16

1998 is when it came out. Okay.

46:20

But the year I'm thinking of is 2000. That's

46:22

why I like that,

46:24

uh, uh,

46:35

steal my sunshine. No, that restaurant

46:37

in fucking Dumbo. Oh, the

46:39

iMac restaurant. The iMac restaurant. Yeah. Yeah.

46:43

Something about, I don't know, like

46:45

those years, it was, and like

46:47

commercials were different. What were they

46:49

like? I don't know. It wasn't

46:51

that good. What? There were a

46:53

lot more local commercial. Well, I was, you

46:55

know, the dancing fucking bitch commercial, like that

46:57

kind of stuff. What dancing bitch? In

47:00

the Mitsubishi Eclipse. The

47:04

one they made fun of on the Chappelle show. Yeah.

47:07

The zoom zoom. Yeah. I

47:09

don't know. You hate zoom zoom. I know. Not

47:12

zoom zoom. There's a Mitsubishi Eclipse commercial. Yeah.

47:15

There's a big model like this. The zoom zoom

47:17

commercial from 1996, you know, goddamn well, the different

47:19

things. Sorry. They're

47:21

completely different. I know. Yeah.

47:24

I know. It's just the knowing like, oh

47:27

yeah. Oh, I know what you're talking about.

47:29

And then immediately wrong. Just

47:31

completely wrong. Just completely wrong. Right

47:33

out of the gate. I was wrong. Yeah.

47:36

No, we all know wrong. Yeah. Like

47:39

the Dodge Durango commercial with the

47:41

dad from Gilmore Girls. Right. No,

47:44

not like that, Adam. Was there a

47:46

dad from Gilmore Girls? Yeah. Oh

47:48

yeah. Laura Lee's dad. His

47:50

name Herman. The dad from Richie

47:52

Rich. Yeah. We just

47:55

talked about him. Edward Herman. Yes. He

47:57

was in Dodge Durango commercial. He was the voice of Dodge Durango. Dodge

48:01

after Dodge Dodge,

48:03

I forget what they called that

48:06

era, but yeah, just done. It

48:08

doesn't exist. It's just Ram trucks.

48:11

Yeah. Um, um,

48:16

you know, when the prowler came out, those

48:19

that era, you would you drive

48:21

a Plymouth Prowler only if

48:24

it had the attached trailer

48:27

and had a trailer for it.

48:29

They had a trailer that it

48:31

was very like a rare accessory, but they had

48:33

a trailer that looked like

48:35

the back of the Dodge Prowler and

48:37

they had a towing package that you could

48:39

bring it with. So you could go camping

48:42

in your Dodge. It was the Dodge. I thought it was

48:44

a Plymouth. That's

48:46

the same Dodge Plymouth Chrysler. It's all

48:48

the same. Oh, GM Mopar Mopar

48:50

was not GM. Mopar

48:53

Mopar is Chrysler Dodge Plymouth.

48:57

Well, I've never heard of that. Yeah.

49:00

It's Mopar. GM is GM is Chevy. Chevy

49:02

GM. Yeah. Yeah.

49:05

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:09

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:12

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:15

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:18

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

49:22

And then now that's all what is

49:24

it? Fucking the

49:26

Chinese probably. Yeah. The

49:28

Chinese Chinese Chinese just sold Volvo. They got rid

49:30

of their shares. Really? Yeah.

49:34

So I don't have a Chinese car anymore. Volvo is not.

49:36

Yeah. Volvo is not doing well.

49:38

Why not? I don't know. Everyone

49:40

loves those damn things. China said we're out. Really?

49:44

Oh no. Probably because they're like

49:47

that whole that new structure of lease to

49:49

own thing they did was a failure. Was

49:52

it? I think so. I don't think people did it.

49:55

Well I still don't have my fucking Volvo because it's

49:57

still at the shop after it was wiped out by

49:59

a Hasidic. Probably because you mentioned you had one on the

50:01

show and then people are like oh these are lame now Well

50:05

those suck. I thought they were luxury cars, but

50:07

they're for an

50:09

Thank you

54:10

BlueShoe. I miss you guys. Thank you BlueShoe.

54:12

I love you. I miss everybody. I miss

54:14

my wife and I feel... What life? I

54:18

used to have a life. What? What did

54:20

you do? Well, most of it

54:22

was sort of internal. I mean, I spent a

54:24

lot of time alone, but I had a rich

54:26

internal world that I could

54:28

retire to and now I feel

54:30

like that's gone. There's just

54:33

nothing inside? There's not that

54:35

there's nothing, but it's mostly... You

54:37

go inside. What's the room? What's

54:39

the bedroom of your mind looking

54:41

like? Mostly practical stuff. I exist

54:43

sort of in the city now

54:45

rather than Marvin's room. Marvin's playground.

54:49

That's what I called it. That's what

54:52

I called the world I occupy. Marvin's

54:54

room. Marvin's playground. So

54:57

there it was like a toon

54:59

town kind of situation. Yeah, except

55:01

the toons were all black artists

55:03

and myself. So is it where

55:05

the rhymes... I would visualize...

55:07

Yeah, just... Yeah, racist. Not

55:12

why you think it would be racist. Because you're saying that

55:14

you only hung out... It was like

55:16

a black village that you lived in? Or

55:19

it was like Basquiat. And they would all

55:21

encourage me. James

55:23

Baldwin. Ava DuVernay. Yeah. Tyler Perry.

55:25

Steve Harvey. The whole

55:33

gang. The whole gang was there. Yeah. De

55:35

Fox Shakur. James

55:37

Baldwin in particular. James Baldwin. Yeah, he

55:39

was like, you're one of the

55:41

greatest artists I've ever met. He said...

55:44

I don't think he talked about it. That's what

55:46

he sounded like. No, I don't think he did.

55:48

You know Lemon... I think he talked like this.

55:50

When I met you Lemon, I thought... No, I

55:52

think you're thinking of Jack

55:54

Donahue from 30 Rock. No, that's a

55:56

character that James Baldwin played. No, that

55:58

wasn't... You think of Alec

56:01

Baldwin. Now you're Alec Baldwin. No,

56:04

no. James Baldwin is

56:06

also one of Alec Baldwin's characters. No,

56:08

it's not. No, it's not. He's a gay black

56:11

writer from uh... That

56:13

was the character. That was

56:15

the character. He

56:17

had debates with William Buckley.

56:20

Oh, the Shadow Nose. No, it's not

56:22

James Baldwin. There's a big James Baldwin

56:24

line. Why? What does Shadow

56:26

mean in that context? He had

56:28

a ring that he would give people. Does

56:31

he exist in the shadows? And if he saved your

56:33

life, you know, you'd get the ring. Really?

56:37

Yeah. Like an engagement

56:39

ring or something like that? No,

56:41

it was a ring that would glow when you

56:43

had to contact the shadow, and then

56:46

you would have to contact them through a

56:49

vacuum tube postal system. Really?

56:53

I love... Which they still have in Prague.

56:55

Did you know that? What?

56:57

Pneumatic tubes? Pneumatic

57:00

tube posters. Everyone's

57:02

house has one? I think most of the

57:04

businesses in Prague still have. They have the infrastructure for

57:06

that. It's the only city still that has one. But

57:08

they used to have that? Yeah, they

57:10

had it in Manhattan. It would go for...

57:13

You could send something from the Chrysler to

57:15

the Empire? This building probably at

57:17

some point. Back, you know, when

57:19

this... Because this building's been around 100 years. Whatever

57:22

business was in here. I'd like

57:24

to imagine... I've

57:26

been convincing myself reincarnation is real.

57:28

Oh, yeah. Which I did

57:30

believe in as a child. No one told

57:32

me about it. I just assumed it existed.

57:34

Yeah, you come back as another guy or

57:37

like a man? I thought that I had

57:39

lived another life when

57:41

I was a small child. And what

57:43

was your impression of what that life was? I

57:45

don't know. I just see it. You

57:48

could feel it, you know? But

57:50

it's a very comforting thought. Probably

57:52

of any... It's weird

57:54

that only Hindus... And

57:57

I guess by extension, the Indians...

58:00

Indian types of Buddhist rather

58:02

than the Japanese self-flagellating

58:05

type of Buddhist. I think like

58:07

yoga bitches also probably. That's

58:09

also Indian. That's

58:12

like a Indian, they're just borrow, they're like

58:14

a appropriating Indian craft. What the fuck do

58:16

you think yoga is? Yeah,

58:18

but what I'm saying is like a California smoothie

58:20

type of lady. She also is like when I

58:22

come back, they're my past life.

58:26

Yeah, they love talking like that. It

58:28

also applies to the people

58:30

that you've lost, you'll see them again. Well

58:33

maybe you won't see them again. Maybe they're going

58:36

to be like a bug on your windshield. Like

58:38

your mom could be a baby right now somewhere and

58:41

you guys could meet again under

58:44

favorable terms. I don't mean like in a

58:46

bad way. Yeah, but there's so

58:48

many people on earth. Should be like this. Yeah,

58:51

but you don't know. You can come back.

58:53

I don't meet a lot of babies though. I know.

58:56

It might not be immediately. In

58:59

five years or something, there could be like a

59:02

five year old that is like

59:04

waiting in line for ice cream. Is

59:06

this his man? And it's

59:08

well, the mom is like. My

59:12

grandma? No, the mom of the

59:14

five year old is like we don't have money for

59:16

ice cream. We ain't

59:18

got, and then you're like I can for some

59:20

reason I want to pay for this ice cream.

59:23

And then you do it and the five year old is

59:26

like thank you. And you don't know, but

59:28

like you get a feeling and you're like

59:31

oh I just bought

59:33

my mom who's now a black

59:35

child ice cream. And it

59:37

makes up for all the racism too. You just think you're

59:39

trying to make up for it. Yeah,

59:41

you just think you think. But you

59:43

know that's a pleasant thought, right? Think about it. You

59:46

can be sure, you close your eyes for a

59:48

second and then. I'm like a little emotional just

59:50

here. It's nice, right? It is really nice. Yeah,

59:54

that's what I mean. And who knows? It

59:56

could be a billion Indian

59:58

people think it's real. Mom that doesn't

1:00:00

have the money? That's

1:00:02

just some piece of shit. That's just a shit

1:00:04

mom's piece of shit. But what if she... You

1:00:08

know, what if I'd be like, I think you should

1:00:10

be my grandpa who's also dead? That

1:00:12

would be weird. I don't think you could

1:00:14

have acted like that. I think you just

1:00:17

said you get like ships crossing, you know?

1:00:19

That's nice, ships crossing. Yeah,

1:00:21

yeah, yeah. And you just get a little feeling.

1:00:23

It's not even like you know. Yeah, thank god,

1:00:25

that's weird. It's just a nice warm feeling. That's

1:00:28

fleeting. Yeah, isn't that nice? Yeah.

1:00:30

And that would be the application to you. And

1:00:32

me, I'm thinking like I come back as some

1:00:35

sort of warlord that kills... Yeah.

1:00:38

Just because I... of all... you know, it's not going to

1:00:40

happen in this lifetime. You're just going to be EDM-y. I

1:00:43

was trying to remember... I was trying to remember... It

1:00:46

got stuck in my head when I had a fever. That

1:00:49

line from The Master. Where...

1:00:54

He... where at the end of the movie he

1:00:56

goes, uh, Freddie, I remember where we know each

1:00:58

other. We worked together in

1:01:01

Paris, um, at

1:01:03

the Pigeon Postal Service. And

1:01:06

we would send unguided balloons

1:01:09

with messages during a siege of

1:01:11

the city by Prussian forces, during

1:01:14

the coldest winter on record. And we sent 62 balloons

1:01:16

and only two went missing. He tells him that. And

1:01:18

I had that in my head, and I'm

1:01:20

like, what

1:01:22

the fuck movie is that from? I couldn't remember. And

1:01:25

what was coming to my head, and I was like sick in bed, and

1:01:27

I would like fall asleep, but I'd wake up, and I'm like, what movie

1:01:29

is that from? And it's like I thought...

1:01:32

the things I was thinking, I was like, is it fucking

1:01:35

radio? I was like, is it Michael?

1:01:37

I thought maybe it was Michael. Michael,

1:01:40

yeah. The Angel movie. Yeah. It

1:01:43

was a dreamcatcher, because I was seeing

1:01:45

like... It was a walk to remember.

1:01:47

Well, I was seeing like a main

1:01:49

character that's magical, but like disabled, you

1:01:52

know, green miles, something like that. And

1:01:54

then I woke up, I'm like, oh, it's

1:01:56

Patton. It's a movie, Patton. It

1:01:58

has to be Patton, because... because Patton believed in

1:02:01

past lives. He did? Yes. Really?

1:02:04

General Patton thought he had been a, like, just

1:02:07

in every war. Oh, that's

1:02:09

cool. Yeah. Yeah, he was just the thickest

1:02:11

fighter in every war. Yeah. Yeah,

1:02:13

he was at the end. While there was Achilles in the movie where they

1:02:15

go out and he was like, I was here thousands

1:02:18

of years ago. I don't remember that movie at

1:02:20

all. Yeah. I just remember the flag,

1:02:23

the speech. Mm-hmm. Yeah. That

1:02:25

movie's awesome. Yeah, George C. Scott. Yeah. I

1:02:28

wanna see it again. But I thought it was, I

1:02:30

thought it would come at that. I was like, is that

1:02:32

at the end of the movie? Does he say it was

1:02:35

his assistant? Because Patton believed in reincarnation?

1:02:37

But it was the master. It was

1:02:39

the master. But then, yeah, I mean,

1:02:43

you know, you think about it, it is a very comforting thought. It

1:02:45

is a really nice thought. Mm-hmm. So

1:02:47

you think you still believe in that or no? Yeah,

1:02:50

why not? Yeah, why not? You should decide,

1:02:52

yeah, fuck it. Yeah. That could be

1:02:55

a nice thing to be like, give a

1:02:57

personal little comfort. Mm-hmm. You're

1:02:59

feeling pretty crummy. Yeah. Yeah.

1:03:01

It's better than heaven, to be honest with you. Way

1:03:04

better. Heaven forever? Right. What

1:03:07

the hell is that? Well, it's also, too, you

1:03:09

still have to wait. It's like, oh, I'll see

1:03:11

you again. Yeah. You know,

1:03:13

if you have somebody that you lost, you

1:03:15

can say, I'll see you again. It necessarily

1:03:18

requires that you die as well. Right.

1:03:21

You know. And it's like, okay, maybe. Also,

1:03:23

if I go to heaven, I'm not a

1:03:25

good guy. Yeah. Or

1:03:27

like, you could have a wife and she dies before

1:03:30

you, but you don't know that she had a boyfriend

1:03:32

that really meant a lot to her, and then he

1:03:34

tragically died. And he's there. And then he's already up

1:03:36

there, and then he's fucking her. And

1:03:38

you're like, so excited to see her. And

1:03:41

she's like, oh, I didn't tell you about this guy

1:03:43

from college who had a motorcycle accident. He

1:03:46

would pick me up on this motorcycle. He

1:03:49

was actually on the way to pick me up one day. You

1:03:52

know, he was kind of a rebel without a cause. You

1:03:55

get up there, you've been living, you haven't gotten

1:03:57

any pussy since your wife died 40 years. Because

1:04:00

that was the love of your life and you

1:04:02

couldn't imagine being with anyone else and

1:04:04

then you get up there and fucking James Do you think? Is

1:04:08

banging her? Mm-hmm That's

1:04:10

no heaven. I want to go through. Oh, yeah, it's

1:04:12

better to just be somebody you that's no

1:04:15

heaven I want to go to you you you

1:04:17

feel inspired to Engage

1:04:19

in some kind of charity towards and you

1:04:21

don't know why yeah, it's because Yeah,

1:04:24

just for a second. It was your landlord that Used

1:04:27

to talk you used to talk about movies with who

1:04:29

shot himself in the head. Yeah, but he was a

1:04:32

good guy Yeah, you're like, oh, that's fucking that's Larry.

1:04:34

Yeah, and you didn't have to pay rent the next

1:04:36

month Oh, yeah, you got away with rent for like

1:04:38

two and a half. Well, you're the one that found

1:04:40

it because you've happened And

1:04:42

his kids were like, yeah, we're kind of Yeah,

1:04:45

we haven't seen it in 30 years. Yeah in the shitty

1:04:47

apartment. I was like, well, I guess I was more of

1:04:49

a son Tim than you could have ever been yeah. Yeah, I

1:04:51

saw his I saw his brains on

1:04:53

a wall Where

1:04:56

the hell were you right and they were like he

1:04:58

was a bad father. He actually he abused us Yeah,

1:05:01

that doesn't make me that I'm not a better son, you

1:05:04

know, he'd ever abused me. Oh, yeah

1:05:06

Yeah, no reincarnation is nice. We both

1:05:08

like the movie gladiator. Mmm. We watched

1:05:10

it together Well, yeah, what other what

1:05:13

other things can I convince myself up?

1:05:15

Could you be just you spend all

1:05:17

day lying to yourself anyways? Yeah sure.

1:05:19

Yeah. Yeah Well, that's the only

1:05:21

way you get through your days by lying here, right?

1:05:23

Why not do it with something harmless? It's nice like

1:05:25

that. Yeah, that's that seems

1:05:28

really sweet. Yeah, like

1:05:30

and Like it

1:05:32

couldn't make you a Gen

1:05:34

well, I guess in the instance of patent,

1:05:36

I guess maybe it could make you a

1:05:38

genocidal maniac, right? I'm

1:05:42

saying that there's a thought of like reincarnation that

1:05:44

can be really sweet But then if you're like,

1:05:46

I'm the I'm the best soldier in every war

1:05:48

even in terms of considered like Zizek

1:05:50

says that Buddhism is a Sociopathic

1:05:55

religion. Why well,

1:05:57

because you don't because there's no possessions. You don't have

1:05:59

to take it responsibility for anything in the material

1:06:01

world. Right, right, right, right. Yeah. Is that right?

1:06:03

I kind of just guessed that.

1:06:05

Yeah, essentially. Yeah. Okay. Well, not, yeah, not

1:06:07

possession. It's, it leads people to inaction. Yeah.

1:06:09

Yeah. You know, it's like, why not? They're

1:06:12

like, not getting mad at him with the

1:06:14

Japanese. You know, you did have people that

1:06:16

were Zen practitioners. And then

1:06:18

there was also that video of like a

1:06:20

supposed Zen master in Israel

1:06:23

that's giving instruction to the IDF

1:06:25

on how to kill people and

1:06:27

enjoy it. Why? I don't know.

1:06:30

Is he like a guy from Tibet

1:06:32

doing that or a Jewish guy that's

1:06:34

like really good at Zen? Well, I

1:06:36

got, I mean, that is such a

1:06:38

bullshit path for Jews. They love doing

1:06:40

that. A lot of the, a lot

1:06:42

of millions of Jews will be like,

1:06:45

yeah, they're like, Oh, I'm actually, I'm

1:06:47

very spiritual. I'm getting into the East

1:06:49

recently. Yeah. Actually,

1:06:52

yes. But I don't

1:06:54

know if Zen's really heavy on the reincarnation

1:06:56

stuff or even it's more of that like

1:06:58

Tibetan, Indian style. I don't know what

1:07:00

the terms for it are, but I don't

1:07:03

freaking know. Yeah. But yeah, you could

1:07:05

say it's like, you know, I, why

1:07:08

I like to think about it. Cause then you don't really have

1:07:10

to worry about time. It's like, Oh, there's all these things I

1:07:12

want to do. Half of them are just,

1:07:15

Oh, it would be nice if I had enough

1:07:18

money to do this, you know,

1:07:21

provide this and,

1:07:25

you know, it's like, okay, well maybe if I keep working this

1:07:27

way, I'll be able to do that when I'm 55 years

1:07:30

old and I'm probably

1:07:32

20 years away from death. But

1:07:35

then if you're like, Oh, I want multiple,

1:07:38

you can just come back and then start at

1:07:40

zero. Yeah. Start at zero. Start at zero.

1:07:43

Yeah. You know, and then, and then spend

1:07:45

another 55 years. It's

1:07:48

called reincarnation capitalism. Yeah. But no,

1:07:50

I mean, that's a good, that's a

1:07:52

perfect example. Well, because

1:07:54

it breeds, you know, like being,

1:07:57

you know, like, uh, being beaten

1:07:59

down. by nihilistic or whatever

1:08:01

if you are of the

1:08:04

thinking that you're gonna come back well

1:08:07

they did that capitalism is evil right

1:08:09

let's say that's like an evil or

1:08:12

immoral way to structure society and

1:08:15

if you did believe in reincarnation then it would be

1:08:17

like well there's no such thing as wealth

1:08:20

inequality because you know you could just come

1:08:22

back as somebody whose parents are rich oh

1:08:24

you could just come back as it's

1:08:27

like this equalizer right you know

1:08:29

like a you like a caste system right

1:08:33

like isn't the whole I don't really know anything

1:08:35

about it but isn't the whole idea is like

1:08:37

if you were what are those low the the

1:08:39

unstinkables what it's the lowest one non

1:08:42

smellables the Ferengi the Ferengi well

1:08:44

that's the one above it was

1:08:48

it oh the Jedi are at the

1:08:50

top the Jedi right well the Jedi

1:08:52

are like the place the baristas the

1:08:55

Beringue the breast the baristas baristas yeah

1:08:57

and then the poo people the poo

1:08:59

poo the poo poo guys this love

1:09:01

dog poo poo boy yeah the port

1:09:04

of the port of party kind of

1:09:06

a port of party party Hindus and

1:09:08

the party house then below that is

1:09:11

the unstickable yeah unthinkable and then below

1:09:13

that is like a cow I guess

1:09:16

yeah I count and that's the most that's

1:09:18

the most sacred animal yeah and

1:09:21

then the bottom animal is the stink bug

1:09:23

the stink bug yeah what

1:09:29

what

1:09:32

why did you make a silly face to the camera no

1:09:35

I just saw the light and it took my

1:09:37

this right it's right to me but

1:09:40

you know you you have a system like that where

1:09:42

there's like I guess you know it's like oh if

1:09:44

you do a good job in this life then you

1:09:46

can be reborn into this other

1:09:49

class yeah which the classes

1:09:51

are I'm assuming determined by

1:09:53

like you know

1:09:55

like your material circumstances right right yeah

1:09:58

so it's like it's like Okay,

1:10:00

we have this fixed social strata, but the

1:10:02

sense of justice is built into the idea

1:10:04

of reincarnation So in that way it could

1:10:06

be harmful. Yeah, it's harmful because yeah, it's

1:10:08

only harmful if it's not real Which

1:10:11

it could be yeah if it's a lie that you're telling

1:10:13

your work I'm telling you who
