Oh, dude, that was a news. No, it was more like a news, like a Bosnian news center or whatever, right? Yeah, like hostages were going to come in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It wasn't good. Give us the money or we kill. I was like, we're shooting a podcast, sir. No, it's a great college and you did great and good for you for going there.

Are you fucking kidding me, Ryan? I almost guessed it right on the nuts. I'm three off. He said it like it's like 160. I was much heavier back in the day. Okay, you were 174 back then? But in college, do they have like a special...

football team Olympics like a football team that's not like it's not varsity or JV but it's more special well the thing called special teams he could have been on a special team like kick return oh no that's not what I mean either I played in high school to clarify not in college oh well that makes sense were you a were you a back I was actually a center and you were a fucking center yeah you were a center yeah

I was much, much heavier. You know how big you have to be to be a center? There's some of the biggest guys in football. Bobby, that's the guy who snaps the football. That's like Jason Kelsey. Yeah, which is the opposite of you. Way, way, way better than me. No, well, yeah, he's a Hall of Famer. This guy's going to, yeah. Different story. I would have not guessed that. You seem low and, you could have been low and strong and could have been a good back. That's me now. Low and strong. You know what? I like you so much. Thank you. I like you too, Bobby. I like we struck a chord here. That goes a long way with me.

Thank you. Already in that booth, you have more love for me than all three of the men that's behind there. That's insane. That's crazy. You like flattery. Fuck you, dude.

You know, honestly, I am tired of your shit as of late, dude. I'm tired of your attitude, your little fucking digs, your little snaps, dude. I'm fucking tired of it, dude. Tired of it. I come to work, right? And I want to just hang out with my friend, talk, be funny. But you come here with hostility. Yep. And you're like smashing me here and there, dude. And I don't like it, dude. Yep.

Calling me fat. Calling me old. Calling me like you can't fuck in the sack. Stupid. Stupid to me, right? Ugly. Ugly. He says that a lot. Yeah, yeah. You call me a piece of shit. A piece of dung shit, dude. Beetle dung shit. Beetle dung shit, dude, you call me. It's not nice. I don't like it. It hurts my feelings. Stupid. It's almost like you're bad friends. I see a smirk. Stop, stop, stop. Stop. So that, when he said that,

No, just stop. No, don't say anything. Andrew, when he said that, it made me rageful. Pissed me right off. Yeah, it made me so rageful. Yeah, pissed me right off. Yeah, yeah. And it's a feeling of like...

It's a feeling that I get as a TSA, actually. Yeah, why is this taking so long? Or when they go, we need to check this one. No, you don't. Yeah, and there's nothing in there, I know. You know what I mean? Leave it alone. And that frustration, it's like a similar feeling. I also wanted to stick my fingers in his Adam's apple. Yes. And dig it into his body. Yep, slowly. Slowly, yeah, yeah. So no more love for you. Okay. Good job, Ryan. We love you, Ryan. By the way, this is a legitimate question. Kind of like you guys are bad friends.

Oh fuck, that's gotta be my dream today. You're gonna wake up in the middle of the night. Yeah, yeah. Fuck that guy! It's almost like you're like, bad friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends. Stuck on a loop in our head. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It'll never get out. So what's up? Did we hire that guy? We hired, so we, do we? He's an intern.

Are you blushing now, Ryan? Yeah. Maybe. Yeah, yeah, he's blushing now. You did great, buddy. You did great, bud. Is he, he's an intern, huh? Just so it's only for the summer? Yeah. Yeah, because after the summer, you know what I mean? He gone. But what could he do to become like a regular, like get a job at Seven Equis? Get somebody else's brain. Dude, you're being mean now.

Like he's still there. Oh, he can hear us? Yeah. He's good. He's a genius. No, he's a good dude. We're just joshing with him. We're just ribbing him. He could be a long term if he wants to stay. You want to stay in LA and become a full time? That's the dream. All right, well then do it. Hire the kid. I don't know. Who cares? Anyway, let's move on from him. Can I give him my cones yet? Not that he does much anyway. Yeah, it's in the blood. It's in your blood now.

You're an asshole. It's something about, well, he's raked in, it's raked in. It's raising a baby now and I know that it's gotten to him a little bit because now he's got to be like a dad all the time and he doesn't want to be a dad.

He wanted to be a rock and roll star. You know that, right? That was his real dream. And then he became a shitbag director. Yeah. You know? He's just, you know. Every day, my agents talk me out of Spain. Yeah. No, it's not even a joke. Every day they call. And the higher ups call. Are you sure about Spain? Yeah. It's going to just put a wrench in the whole fucking thing. I go...

I love him. I'm going to do him a favor. I'm going to play a zombie. They're like, I know, but it's like we read it. Not true. What? They haven't read it. Even worse. Let me, okay, you're right. Let me say, we tried to read it. And we just couldn't get past the first page. Yeah. Yeah, so yeah, they did try. And the first page is just the cover page. Yeah. What's the title? What's the name of the film again? Jabberwocky. Yeah. Is it really called Jabberwocky? Yeah.

Like the dance crew? You do know about the dance crew? I don't know about the dance crew. Yeah, well, I think you should reconsider because there's an extremely famous dance crew called the Jabberwockies. And they're in Vegas and they're... They won America's Got Talent. Yeah, they did. They might be based on this... Are they in it? Poem. But you do know culturally people will think of this in America. Yeah. Oh, I see. Oh, yeah. They're like, oh, it's a documentary about our favorite dance crew. When they watch it, they're like, it's just a little shitty zombie movie. Yeah.

What is the meaning of Jabberwocky? What is that? Jabberwocky is a poem in Alice in Wonderland, and it's about a nonsensical creature. By Lewis Carroll. Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll. Oh, interesting. But I do think, unfortunately, pop culturally, people will think of the dance crew from Vegas. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Twas brilliant, and the slithy tubes did jive and gimp in the wab.

"All mimsy with a bogo roll" This is your movie? Is this the script for your movie? Yeah, it is. That's the opening monologue. Be the Jabba walker myself. So I'm a security guard. The only lines you have. Yeah, so I'm a security guard, right? I'm sitting there and I see the fucking zombies. Go to the beginning. I'm just like looking at my thing, right? And I look out and I go, "Ah, twice bleeding."

Do I have an accent? Sure. Yeah. Good, good, good. I need one for that. Spanish. No, that's good. That is good. Perfect. Mimsy.

Okay. All Mimsy were the borongovs. Borogrov. Borogrov. Borogovs. Borogovs, and the moom rats all grib. Very good. Perfect. You get the next line. Beware the jabberwock, my son. Be jaws that bite the claws that catch. Beware the jub-jub bird and shun the formoeus bandersnatch. Okay, can you go back to the first? Bandersnatch is good. I think that's the right way to go. Yeah. Twas brittling and the slilly toves.

"Degar and Gimbal and the Wabe." Right? Right? Or no? "All Mimsy were the Borogos, and the Moom Rats outgrabed." Dude, that's the movie. You got your film. Take that. That's it. Take that to Spain. Did you record that? I'm not going to Spain. Take that to Spain. We're still trying to work it out that I'm gonna, you know, I called him yesterday. I still might be able to go. I promise you, I would bet a million dollars you're not gonna go. Why?

There's no way you're going to don't try to trick my mind. Yeah, look at your face right now I'm not gonna get tricked by your mind games right now, dude. It's diabolical Did I call you yesterday and I said we might be able to work he's not gonna work it out I promise you won't be there. I'll fucking put a million dollars on it. There's no way he's going a million I think we can work it out

If you put a million dollars. $500. No, no, no. You're not doing it. Well, let's talk about movies. Because I'll tell you this. Let's talk about movies. All right. Last week, I'm in Portland. I got a call about this. What? From Oliver Tree. Oh, my God. Called me about you on set. Not happy. And says he might get a lawyer.

Apparently, you know, he said you faked COVID. You made a whole deal. You ruined a day of shooting. And then you threatened Oliver. Now he's going to sue us. He's going to sue you. What I did was while he was in makeup, I went literally to the side. I didn't know anybody in the crew. And I go, attention, please. I swear to God I didn't. I said, attention, please. And everyone stopped. Probably like 30 people, right? Wardrobe everybody. I go...

So Oliver has monkey pox and he's patient zero. He's the monkey. So nobody touch him. And I was being, I'm fucking dead serious. Right? He's gonna sue you. And then later I found out he was all fucking mad about it. He said he's gonna sue you for defamation. He texted me the whole thing this morning. It was a joke. Well, he's suing. Does he not look like a monkey? He said he's- Can I say that? Does he look like a monkey? Raise your hand. Look at this. I'm the only one? Look at this. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He says to me in a long text,

I'm going to call him now. Guy faked a COVID scare, didn't have to play a role, acted like a diva. He won't respond to my texts or my calls. I had to fly out my lawyer, Jeremiah Jeffrey, to clean the whole mess up. He's going to sue you for defamation. Yeah. I'm going to call him right now. Well, do it, because now he's going to sue us. Did he really text you, though? He did. I just read it off. Oh, yeah, but you're a good improviser, so. That is true. No, but I did. There, look. Okay. He has more lines. Look. Wow, that's long. Yeah. He told me everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's not going to answer now. I'm going to leave a message.

I'm sorry. The person you are trying to reach has a voicemail box that has not been set up yet. Oh, fuck you. Oh, my God. That's actually smart to not set up a mailbox. I just got a text from your ex. Kalilah? Mm-hmm. About what? Nothing. What's going on around here, Dan? No, I can't get dinner. I have to do it. Okay, that's how it should go. Hold on. You'd be the last person she would ask. I can't stop by after dinner. Yeah, go ahead. Go ahead.

Red ginseng royal jelly. Well, what is it she says? Come to hotel. I mean, I can play the same game with your wife. All right. You can. Actually, no, you can. Yeah, go ahead, please. I'm not going to. Swapadopolis. I want to tell you something. Okay, go ahead. I feel like, look, look at me in the face real fast. You're my best boy. And I love you. And you know that. No, what is it? Well, I want to come clean. What is it? I want to come clean to you about something. Is it going to make me mad?

I feel like it's serious. Well, it's not serious, but I do want to tell you something. It's going to make me mad. It's not. It's not even that big of a deal. Okay, go ahead. Okay. Uh-oh. Oh, no. I'm starting a podcast with Kalilah. No, the woman that was here, the old lady that came in here. Yeah, McCone's wife. Was not McCone's grandmother. She's an internet personality named Angry Grandmother. And

We put her up to the whole thing. She is not related. And the internet's going to be surprised that you didn't know. And I wanted to tell you, but she's got an internet following. Her name is The Real Angry Grandmother, and she's very funny. Look at her. Wait, go to her main page. There, you see a picture of us on her main page. Yeah. Okay.

Okay. Nothing gets by you, pal. I swear to God, on my mother's lap, I didn't know. Well, here's how I know. By the way, for the audience, here's how I know Bobby didn't know. He called me, right, that night. I'm driving down to the comedy store. I'm over the hill. He literally calls and goes, hey-

"Why is she so mad at me?" And I was like, "What are you talking about?" And he goes, "Why is McCone's family, do you think he's talking shit behind our back to her about us?" I said, "No." - Could I say something? It all lined up in my mind. - To be real. - That he could be that big of a bitch. That he would go to his grandmother and start complaining about me. And all of a sudden there's this family resentment. She had to fly all the way over here. So that's not your brother?

No, that's her grandson. I thought it was just like the bit, like when you had me sit down, I'm like, oh, he's continuing. We thought you were playing with us. But then you texted me over the weekend and you never texted me. It's not just that. I had to see Beverly about it. You had to go to your therapist? Yes. Wow. I literally had to go to my therapist for that reason.

And then I was just like, I said my behavior, like I can't even see when I'm treating people so poorly, right? And I'm not aware that people are, there are things going on. I was like, is it about me? Why would you do this? You have to be more mindful. No, it's fuck you. Fuck all of you. You guys are all involved in this. Go fuck yourself. I have nothing to do with it. Yes, you do, dude. How? Because you knew. I didn't know. Yes, you did, dude. You did. They hid it from me. Yeah, you didn't know. I didn't know who that was. So who did you think she was?

His grandmother. What do you mean? And then they told me. And then I said, we should tell Bobby after the episode. And then I said, we should tell Bobby. And then the boys were like, don't tell him. Okay, I believe you. Carlos. No, stop, stop, stop. Okay, Carlos said it. I believe you. I do. But... No, I knew the whole time.

Okay, now I can go mad again. Yeah, fuck us, fuck us, go ahead. No, no, I'm not going to fuck you. What I'm saying is that, wow. She did a great job. She did great. Let me see what my feeling is. Who am I mad at the most? You know. It was Ander's idea. It was Ander's idea. No, how was it my idea?

Who sent it to me? It was my idea. Yes. I didn't find her. It's so funny because my anger still goes to McCone. It should. Because you should have said over the weekend that, hey, dude, there was an internet lady and whatever. Did I ask you that too? I said that. You said, is that really his grandmother? Yeah. And I said, I think so. And you went, why would she be so mad? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Why would she be so mad?

And then I kind of replayed it in my mind because you said somewhere in Minnesota, she said, right? He was very good at playing along. Right. So I was like, was there an incident where his family was there and I was like not available? I feel like because I feel like I'm really good with families. Hey, how are you? And I hug and all that stuff, right? Better than Andrew. Yeah, I know. What did you just say? Thank you so much. What did you just say? Bobby's a great, he loves to ham it up.

Yeah, I ham it up with families. - You want more genuine real? - No, no, no, no, no, no. - With people that matter most. - McCone, McCone. - Get up to the mic. - Don't describe it. - No, McCone, McCone. - What are you? - You were doing fine. - No, what, what, what? - You were being honest and I appreciate it, but this thing you're doing now? Nah, dude. - No, go ahead. Say your piece. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Say your piece. - It's desperate, go ahead. - I was like, Andrew will say hi to my parents. Andrew will say hi to a group of people, but Bobby will go up to everyone individually

and start grabbing them and touching them. - Physically assaulting them? - No, no, no. - I say hello and I move on. - I'm just saying Bobby has more-- - I don't do that. - Let's not talk about the grabbing. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, what he means to say-- - Is that you physically assault his family. - That's not what I'm saying. What he means to say is I shake hands, I do hogs, right? And I'm really mindful and I'm really there, present.

I mean, you guys both have different ways of showing love, you know? Mine's more genuine. His is more artificial. No, it's not artificial. We have different ways of approaching things. Yours is more loud and in your face. Yeah, annoying. And mine is more real and normal. More distant and more unavailable. He's a listener and you're a granddad. He's not a listener. I draw the line there. He's not a listener, dude. He's a listener and you're a love. He only listens to himself.

He can say whatever he wants. I mean, we know how wrong he is. It's insane. Everybody in here knows. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway. Let him create his false reality. So what I want to say is that that still doesn't give, that doesn't resolve our situation. You know, I called you over the weekend. You texted me. I texted you. What did I say? You said, what's up with the all eyes on Rafa? Is this a movie?

I said, no, this is a Palestine thing. - Oh, that's right, that's right. That was my way into like, kind of like, let's just have small talk. - You wanted to see- - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't care about, I knew what Rafa was, yeah, yeah. What? - You do not like small talk. - Yeah, but I was trying to get in like, hey, and then my next thing was gonna be, was gonna be, hey, is there any way I can make it up or whatever? But then I was just like, nah. - No. - Because I thought that your grandma was acting way too fucking, you know what I mean?

Intense for whatever the situation is. A little over the top. Yeah. So, wow. Okay. So, that's good. And that's not your brother. And okay. So, we're playing tricks. I feel like the guy looks nothing like me. He's like huge. Yeah, he's a white guy. Yeah, yeah. There's tricks. And I guess I'm going to have to get everyone back. I guess I'm going to have to do that. Whatever you feel like you need to do. I need to do it. I mean, it was a pretty harmless thing. It wasn't harmful. No. Dude.

When I fucking do a special session with my fucking therapist, right? And I'm fucking brooding about it and thinking about it all fucking weekend. What are you doing with your face, dude? I'm just mocking your bullshit. You didn't do a special session with your therapist. I did. You had to do a regular session and you brought that up. Yeah. Okay. But it was special. They're all special. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, well, then there we go. Still special nonetheless. Therapy is special. It's special nonetheless.

Okay. So you got that? Anything else? Let's just get out of the way today, guys. Let's get everything, put everything on the table and go, this is what we did and this and that. Anything else? Go ahead. I took these dick pills and it lasted too long. Like four days and I didn't think they would be that potent. Four full days? Yeah, four days. Could have had a stroke, by the way. No, I didn't know. No one told me. I'm telling you now. Don't ever do that again. Thank you, Andrew. Yeah, you got to read it. Well,

Well, you don't need a prescription for these. You buy them at a gas station on Vermont. Oh, you did like the little... Extends or whatever? No, the Mexican ones. It's called like... Yeah, Rhino. Oh, the Rhino Cockle. There's a new one that says no headache. So I got that one. Did you get a headache? No. Okay. It's on the package. Yeah, but the Hot Rod 5000s give you headaches. So the Rhino didn't. So I was really happy. What's in there? Is it the same ingredients as... Oh, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know what's in it. I just take it and I know I get an erection.

I learned this early on. Can you not get an erection without it? No, I can, but I use it as insurance so I can have like an extra fun time.

But if you're attracted to the person, do you then you have trouble sometimes? Sometimes I will. So I'll get in my head and I'll start thinking, oh, like I want to watch something later. I'll like think about a million things. Watch what later? Like a film or something pornographic? No, like YouTube or something. Like I'll think about later in my night and like it'll affect me. So you're sitting with the person that you're interested in and you're thinking about YouTube? I'll think about y'all. Why? Don't. Don't.

I don't think about you when I'm trying to get hurt. Please don't. I love y'all. I love you too, but nonetheless, I don't think about you at all. But when I get in bed, I think about everything in my life, and y'all are such a big part of it. And when I think of y'all, my boner goes down. Okay, when do you think about... Who was the last person you hooked up with that you had no thoughts like that, that it was just free and... High school. It was that long ago? No, probably years ago.

You haven't hooked up with someone in years that you felt comfortable just getting a hard-on and not thinking about life? Yeah, it's been years. I take medicine for it. It's in a couple movies. That's incredible. What do you mean it's in a couple movies? I related to one of these characters. I saw a movie called Red Rocket with Simon Rex, and he had to take dick pills all the time. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I love him. Yeah, I know. I was like, oh, that's me. I went to the premiere of that movie. Oh, I'm jealous.

What does it have to do with you? Yeah, what happened? Oh, just I was hooking up with this girl and like the insurance stopped working and I got really upset. In the middle of it. Yes. It has nothing to do with me and the deception. I was saying what, like I don't care about your personal life. I could have done that too, dude. No, no, no. What I'm saying is, is there anything that you want to put on the table where you lied to me or deceived me in any kind of way? I thought we were just talking about life. No, no, no. I could do

I can do that same thing. Yeah. But I do like life stories. It is really. But in this segment, there's segments, dude, in the show. Yeah, I just I was getting honest with my buddies here. Thank you. Thank you for that. Yeah. I mean, it's just like I can't.

Yeah. I don't know about these people. I think we should start anew. I'm so down. Yeah. Yeah. You clip fire. Maybe the little kid from Connecticut can stay. Who Ryan? Yeah. I don't know though. He said some things that were like suspect. Well, he walked in and he said, he called everyone the N word, which I thought was weird. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know why he's up. Ryan, slow down. You're an intern. Yeah. But anyway, well,

Well, look, if you want a clear house, we'll get these guys out of here. I really do. Bobby, no. Stop for a second. What I want to say to you... Excuse me. Oh, is I laughing too much? Yeah, like a hyena. Okay, I'm sorry. I don't like hyena laughs. Excuse me. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Excuse me. Guys. Please. This is not a comedy show. Yeah, I'm just trying to be...

Hello. Hello. Hello. Are you here? I'm here. Are you listening? Yes. So what I wanted to say is, is that, and I'm, I'm, I'm going to be truthful and really dig into my feelings here. Okay.

It's just been an adventure doing this podcast with you guys. It really has. I mean, the kind of experiences we've had, I will never forget them. I don't know why you're laughing. Yeah, what are you smiling about? Yeah, you piece of shit. Why are you laughing? I'm being fucking... No, either one of you. You fuck me. Yeah, yeah. Both of you. Stop. Like, would you get genuine? Like, you know, I get... Genuine. I get out and shit.

Am I? No, it's not. Am I reading this wrong? No, they're doing it. They're doing it, right? They're egging you on. They're egging me out right now. And I don't like it. You know what, dude? I don't even have to say it to them because this is how I feel. So I could just say it to... Say it. I don't want to say it to you either for some reason. Well, say it to camera then. I'll just say it to the wall. To the audience. Well, no. To the audience. Oh, yeah. To the camera, not to the wall. Okay. Please, dude. Well, I don't want to coach you. Okay, go ahead. Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry. Please. You do as you may. All right. So what I want to say is the last... Since the beginning of Bad Friends, it's just been an adventure. I've...

When I was a young guy, it was never part of my dream to do this, but it was like, was I mistaken? Because, wow, this has been a fucking wild ride, and it's been one of the greatest things I've ever experienced. It's almost as if they were all meant to be there. We all fit like a fucking puzzle did.

And when you put the puzzles together, it's a beautiful painting. And sometimes a rogue piece gets in there. Exactly. And you're like, what puzzle is this? What puzzle piece is this? What does this go to? Yeah. And then that rogue piece, McCone, right? But Andrew hammered it in. Yeah, yeah. As hard as I could. I said, this has got to fit. So it's basically a gigantic puzzle of a gigantic butterfly.

But the rogue piece you can tell is the edge of a swastika. That's right. All right. So I'm like trying to jam in this little tiny swastika piece inside this butterfly. Yeah. And then the whole thing becomes very Nazi. Right. It's Nazi propaganda. Right. So what I have to do is I have to fucking unpuzzle it. Right. To its pieces, throw it in the garbage and go buy a new puzzle. And buy a Mein Kampf book. Yeah. You have to start all over. Whatever it might be. Sure.

I don't know Mein Kampf. Oh, my God. Great book. Yeah, yeah. Can't put it down. But I'll tell you what, you're right. I think you need to throw away this old puzzle. It's not working anymore. Yeah, yeah, the puzzle's not working. So thank you for being my old puzzle pieces. But it's not fitting together anymore for me, the way that... Oh, yeah? What you doing, dude? I'm just bummed. Well, lies and deceit are going to get you there, buddy. Yeah. You too, dude. Thank you. Are you throwing me off the show?

No, I said you too. I love you. Oh, I love you too. That's what I was saying. I love you too. Like you too, dude. You too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not with them, but you too in terms of love. I love you. I love you too. Hey, who's the highest, who do you think is the highest grossing touring musical artist of last year? Taylor Swift. Correct. Who's number two? Whoa, that's a good one.

I know you got it. I know you got it. Oh, really? Yeah, I know you got it. You think I got it? I know you do. Yeah, yeah. These guys don't fucking have it. Did Harry Styles go last year? He's in there. Not two, though. But he's number five. Number five. Wow. Okay. Did Beyonce do anything? Number two. Did I get it? You got it. Fuck yeah, I did. Who's number three? I don't know if I... You're this good. You've gotten fucking three of the five. You think you can't knock out two more? So who else went out there last year? Um...

I'm going to tell you this. Yeah. It's a group. This number three. Room five. Is a group. No, but that's a very good guess. This is a group and it's a group where you go, I mean, yeah, they were very, very popular 10 years ago, but I cannot believe they're still making that much money. Lincoln Park. Bigger. Much bigger. Much bigger than Lincoln Park. Much bigger. Yeah. Chain smokers. No. Okay. Now you're going, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a, you're a

You know me in the sunlight. That's good. I guess, yeah. No? You guys heard the song. Keep doing it. They all heard it. Oh, I know what it is. Coldplay. Yeah, Coldplay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. And then... That doesn't surprise me. Okay, but... I like it. What do you mean? Coldplay. Clockwork. Is that what the song? Ten years ago, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then the next one

I got this one right. We were doing trivia. I know one. What is it? Imagine Dragons? No, it's a solo art. Well, it's a man's name that is the band. It's a man's name that is the band. It's his name, but it's a band, but it's him. Do you know what I mean? He's not a solo artist because that's not a real thing. Wait, wait. Is his name in the band's name? Yeah, it's his name. Okay. They go by him. They go by him. John Mayer. No, because he's with... Grateful Dead. Yeah, he's with the Dead. I have no idea.

Do you guys know? Give it a guess. And I got this. I was shocked because I thought, what's an old-timer guy that's touring in the U.S.?

- Springsteen. Wow, very good, Fanspe. - Bruce? - Bruce Springsteen. - Really? - Yeah, I mean, you could look it up. The number was like 300 something million. - He kills it, he kills it. - Awesome. - You know how much Taylor Swift made? Over a billion dollars. - I know. - A billion fucking dollars. - In one year. - Yeah. - It's crazy. - It was the top touring, touring. - What would I do with that money? - A billion dollars. - Oh, I'd never see you guys again. - Yeah.

Honestly, I would hope not. No, if you got a billion dollars, would you call me and go, I think I'm done? No, no. You know what I would do? What? Give me half a half a billion. Half a billion. Yeah. No. Would you give me any of that money? No. A billion dollars. You give me some. I don't think so. I think I would give you. Well, I would say outrageous. Outrageous. Outrageous. I would say, what do you need?

$10 million. For what? Just to give it to me so I don't feel jealous. Okay, but how about this? Then you have to turn in receipts of what you buy with it. You what? I want to know every dime you spend. That's fine. I will do that. Really? Every dime. I want to see every dime. Yeah, Clash of Clans, $40,000. That kind of thing. Yeah, you will. You spend that much on a video game? No, remember when Clinton called me and goes, no more Clash of Clans, delete it right now because I spent $10,000 in one month or whatever.

On Clash of Clans. Anyway. Jesus Christ. No, I would give you as much as you wanted. No, no, no. Just $10 million. I don't think you would. Yes, I would. Because when people get money, they hoard it. What do you mean? I'm generous. I would absolutely give you money. I wouldn't even think twice about it. I give fucking... I would give in this room... Yeah, tell what everyone would get. If I won a billion dollars? Yeah, yeah, yeah. If I won the lottery, I would give... Well, first of all, I'd do my family first.

No, I mean my mother and my father. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course, of course, of course. My little sister. Of course, your little sister. And then when I got to the Bad Friends family, I would give McCone 10K. Pretty generous. That's really nice. Pretty generous. Yeah. I'd break fancy off with a mill. I'd give him a millie. Nice. Well, he's a dad. Yeah, nice. And I'd give Carlos...

Probably one of those. Did they sell gift cards for rehab? Do they have gift cards? They don't have that. They don't. They should. No. Maybe get him insurance. I'd give him health insurance. Health insurance. I'd pay for his health insurance. You can go to rehab. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I would give him health insurance. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then Ryan, the new guy, I'd give him, I don't know, a couple hundred grand. Just toss it to him. Just to see what, you know, fuck up his life. You know what? It's so fun. Just to see what would happen. Yeah, just to see what happens with Ryan. Yeah. Like, I've been gardening. What? Yeah, I've been gardening. What are you gardening, babe? I'm, like, right now I'm...

Does my little yellow man have a green thumb? Yeah, don't call me that. What is yellow? Don't call me a green. If you mix yellow and green, what color is it? No, I just, the green thumb. What color is yellow and green? Not the yellow part. What? I have a problem with the green thumb, not the yellow part. Why? You have a green thumb. Okay, anyway, I've been growing catnip. You've been growing catnip? Yeah. In your yard? No, outside of my, yeah, my front yard. How do you grow catnip? Is it a hard thing to grow?

Available to buy and plant at any time. Sunny and well-drained large pot. Yeah. So I got the pot. I got the soil. It's weed for cats, right? Yeah, yeah. They love it. Wow. So I've been growing it. Right now there's only nine little pieces that stuck out. Okay. You know what I mean? So there's only nine little grass hairs that are sticking out. But I just planted it a week ago.

Yeah, anyway. So you grow the catnip. Yeah, but I experimented. I put Diet Coke in like a little piece of, see if that would work. It doesn't work. No, it doesn't. Yeah, typically not. That's my point though. I don't know why you even brought that up. What was it? No, I just, I experiment. You're experimenting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you're trying. I try. It doesn't work. I like doing this now. It's water. It's water. And I'll tell you why. I'm going to now go to carrots and other things.

Carrots is probably pretty easy to do. I think you could do carrots. Yeah, yeah. And the reason why is because of this movie. It's fine. What movie? It's... Fuck. I don't know. It just fucking... Oh, I know what it is. Perfect Days. Perfect Days. Vin Vinders. So this got you into... This got you into gardening. You've now got a green thumb. Oh, this looks... This is supposed to be really good. This is about a little Asian guy who gardens? No, he's a janitor. You saw it? Yeah. Yeah. It's a... It's a... It's...

It's a beautiful film, huh? It's just a beautiful film. It's a film of... Just give me a second. Yeah, we are. Okay. I want to say... When I was a young man, I had nothing. Really. Hi. Hello. I don't know about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You actually had a pretty substantial amount. Who? You. You grew up in a fucking country club. No, no, no. What I'm saying in my early 20s. Okay.

Please, I mean, I'm just trying to be, what you're doing right now. Be specific. In high school, you definitely had something. What you're doing right now is not good. You're a rich drug addict. Hyena?

High end again? That's enough, Carlos. Enough of that. It's not funny. Okay. All right, go ahead. So anyway, in order for me to be happy is I had to look at the little things in life, right? And be mindful about the things around me and find joy in those things. Right. Like for instance, I've said this before, I would work at this restaurant and it would be like a breakfast place. I'd be slammed.

It was in the cove. I would sit on the edge of the cove and watch the seals and the oceans. And that would give me joy. Just the simplicity of watching nature and the wind and all that stuff. And I had no money, no pussy, nothing. Okay? And then since I started doing stand-up, you get away from that, right? And you want, you know what I mean? Dopamine hits. And you want to get to the next level and all these things that fix you. That thinks...

gonna right but then this i saw this movie i was like it brought me back to those days

So this guy's a gardener, right? And he, not a janitor, he's a janitor, right? And it's every day he just shows up, goes, cleans toilets. But he looks at little things in life, like, you know what I mean? The wind blowing through the trees, right? Or like, you know what I mean? People just, homeless people. And he finds little things and he finds joy in those things. And it's like, when I saw that, I was like, oh shit, I think that's what's missing in my life. That's all.

If he was an Asian, would you have liked this as much? No, absolutely not. That's all of it. If this was just a white janitor in America. Two thumbs down. I'd pick it in the theater. Fuck that movie. If this movie was called Tough Times and it was just about a janitor. Fuck you, janitor.

Hey, everybody. We're doing a Bad Friends live show. It's called Scary Times USA. Scary Time USA. And how do you watch it? Go to moment.co slash badfriends.

You're not looking at me, dude. I've been to a spa. It doesn't look like that. No, no, no. Stop, stop, stop, stop. I've asked you for like five years. To sit on a bucket and wash my balls? Shut the fuck up. That guy's washing his balls on a bucket. I know. I've asked. The only reason this works with you guys is because your penises don't touch that bucket. Your balls don't touch that bucket. You're sitting on a bucket. He's sitting wide butthole on that bucket. Look at those little. That was me last night. Look at those little cock washers. And so what? You pull up to it and you wash your penis there?

Is that what those things are? It's not just a peanut. Can I just finish what I was going to say? And then we can go back to it. I want to know what the cock washer is. What is that? It's not a cock washer. Just stop, okay? Zoom in on that little cock washer. So five years ago, Andrew, I keep saying, let's go to the Korean spa. I go every night. You won't go.

I know. Right. And so if you had gone, if you go with me, that's what the shower, like the bath. Well, this isn't going to make me want to go. It's the best. You get really what you do is you get the little plastic stool. You sit down. Then you see that bucket underneath them. Yeah. Sometimes it's a bigger bucket, but it's plastic. Right. And you get you get a towel. You take the soap. Right. And you know, I mean, you get the fucking sun to go. You cover the bucket with a towel.

Why? You just sit raw ass on a fucking bucket? No, that's not the bucket he's sitting on. The blue thing. There's one right by this foot right there. That white thing? He's sitting on a blue thing. Do you sit on one of those? Yeah, that's a seat. It's a plastic seat. But he's raw ass on it. He's open raw ass on it? That's what you do on it. No, I'm good. Okay, well, then you're not good. Why do I want to sit on where some other guy's asshole was spread out? What I like to do is I like to spray it down a little bit. That's not going to do it. Anyway. Go ahead. I don't want to go.

And by the way, then you stand up and your dick is in mirror. It's like a weird, it's just a weird, this is a weird sexual. It's not. I don't like it. Those little cock washers I don't like. We have to do it. Tell me something. You bathe sitting, this is what you do. You take a shower sitting down. So what I do is I, so I. Do you know how many people that are paralyzed that would dream about taking a standing up shower? That's a good. This is ableist. This is mocking the disabled. And I won't stand for this kind of shit. Go ahead. Thank you. Back to me.

When I'm sitting there with a towel, with the suds, I get every piece of my body. I scrub, I scrub, right? And I take the... You know what I mean? There's a bucket. It's full of water. I rinse it. I do it again. Then I'll dump the bucket, put fresh water in it, put it over my body, right? It's more of a... It's kind of like a bath shower. It's a therapeutic bath. Yeah. And you can turn to the guy next to you and go, how was your day? I don't want to...

What did you golf today? I don't want to talk to someone from washing my cock. What did you golf today? I didn't golf today. How many golfers did you encounter there? Well, it's in Greer Town, so it's a lot. By the way, it's connected to a driving range. Yeah. Well, I was just saying it because I'm making it seem like he was next to me. I would never go. Here's me. Go ahead. Yeah. What did you golf today? Hey, I'm washing my cock. Don't tell me.

Talk to me when I'm washing my balls. That's insane. Yeah. I don't want to have a conversation while I'm washing my balls. Although there should be a rule. Last night I was at the Wii Spa. Okay. I'm in the steam room. It's packed for some reason. There's a lot of black people last night, which I love. The way you said it.

I love it. Thank God for the steam. I love it. Right. So I'm like in the steam room. Then I see this tall Asian kid. He's walking there. He keep tripping on black dicks. Jesus Christ. Pick that up, will you? And this guy and I have two rules. Can I tell you my two rules where I don't like being recognized? AA meetings.

Okay. You're going to get recognized at AA meetings. I know, but I don't like when they go, if they go after an AA meeting, I'm on the road. Like I just went to Portland. I went to an AA meeting. Yeah. And people were like, hey, can I get a photo with you? And I go, not at an AA meeting. I'll do it anywhere else but here. Right. That's a private time. Yeah, because also it's like I'm like one of many. I get that. Okay, so. I get that. Steam Room is another one. So last night I'm at Wii Spa, right? And I see this tall Asian guy, probably young, early 20s.

And he's completely naked. And he goes, "Yo!" Like with his legs like this. He goes, "Yo!" Like this.

Bobby Lee, like this, right? And I was like, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill, chill. - Chill it out, man. - It drives me nuts. They cut to, I'm taking a photo with them, I don't know why. I was like, all right, let's just do it real quick or whatever. But like, my point is that those are two places, if you ever see me there, don't ask for a photo. - But you know what? It makes his life.

Not when I'm naked in a steam room trying to relax. Oh, ah, so yes. This is my point. What? Why am I going to this place to do a cock washing here when I can go to a very comfortable private place? You're proving my point. Because when I go to a spa, when I go to a spa and I get a massage and I go to sit in the steam room, there's like one other person in there. Then I go in the hot tub, maybe one other guy. You know what we do? We go like this.

That's it. Little head nod, little acknowledgement. Then we don't say a fucking word to each other. Then I go in my little private stall and I wash my balls in my butthole with nice soap and I take a hot shower and then I go up to my room and I go lay down. Okay, this is what we're doing. And that version of a spa to me is the one I like. There's no one there and I don't have to talk to anybody. I go there to get away from chit-chat. You like the chit-chat. You're afraid to admit it, but you like to chit-chat. I don't like the chit-chat. Your next special should be called chit-chat.

I don't like a chit chat. You do. No, I don't. McCone even said it. You come up to his family and you chit chat. Yeah, yeah. So here's what we're going to do. You see someone on the street and you chit chat. I don't chit chat. You're a little chit chat. Stop doing that. A little ching chong chit chat. Oh,

Oh, really? Ching chong chit chat for the hip hat. Hyena. Shop it. Fuck you. This is what we're going to do. Carlos, that's not funny. That's not funny, that stuff. This is what we're going to do. And I think it's going to be good for the show. All go to the spa? No, the Wii spa. We'll all go? Yes, we all go as a team. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Right? Bring your baby. I'm going to understand.

No, no, no. And then we're going to do the Bulgama Room. They have bulgogi in there? No, not bulgogi. No? No. There's a room there called the Bulgama Room at WeSpot. Look it up. Oh, that's it. That's it. That's it. That's the Bulgama Room. Okay? Yeah. So that's the Bulgama Room. Sometimes it's like 215 degrees. 206, it says. Yeah, sometimes it's higher, right? It's very hot. So it's a sauna. Yeah, it's a sauna. Yeah, white people just call it sauna.

It's just a sauna. What's the degree of a sauna? Google it. What's the average degree of a sauna? Well, they have super- Of a dry sauna. It depends on where you go. Some things are real hot. I want to look at this. You're really, really, really, really, really, really- 150, 175. Right. So the Bulgama takes it to the next level. It's like, you know what I mean? What do you mean? It's not regular. More sweat? Yeah.

So I can smell more kimchi pouring out of your fucking nose? God, you're being so negative right now. So basically what I'm saying is you go in there and most dudes walk in and they walk out, but not us. We sit. We're going to sit. Until someone dies. No, no one dies. No, no one dies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that's the way you spell Bulgama Room, right? I'll go in that. We will? Yeah. And you're fully closed. There's people doing hot yoga and all that stuff, right? No, no, no, no. People are doing yoga inside of there? Sometimes, yeah. Absolutely not. Sit down. Then you can tell them to stop. I'll go sit down. Okay, okay.

I don't want to play that. And then look up the clay room. The clay room at Wii Spa. Because Ari and I went to the Russian spa in New York, and I fucking love it. You got in the cold plunge. Do you do cold plunge? There's cold plunge here, too. You don't do it, though, do you? I do. Go there with me, and I'll show you my fucking wise ways. Yeah, well. All right? That's the clay room. Not going in that either. Yeah, you are. Nope. Yeah, and we're going to do that same exact thing. How many bodies? All the bodies that lay in there? You're going to use my shoulder as a pillow, and we're going to be like that. Dude, look how relaxed. You and I lay there?

I would do it for the photo. Yeah. It's fun. So anyway, we go there, right? Playroom. Hey. Playroom. No. Yeah. Don't you think that'd be a fun thing to do as a group? Yeah. We're going to do it. Let's set a date now. Do it. All right? Do it. All right. Can you guys do it Sunday during the day? Yeah. You have to bring your kid. Which Sunday? This Sunday during the day. Not this Sunday. I can't. Well, then he's not going to do the movie. I'm not doing the movie. I'm available.

How about this? How about this? No, honestly. We'll do a family trip. Monday night. Okay. Monday night, we do We Spa as a family. I'll pay. And then we can vlog it or whatever for the Patreon. Well, they won't let us film in there, obviously. And we can film all the way up to when we get naked, I think. Sure. Yeah. And then it'll be a fun night, right? And I guarantee you at the end of the night, we'll walk out of there and you're going to look me in the eyes and go, I get it. I get why you go there.

I've been to a spa. It's 24 hours. It's not Russian. It's Korean. It's 24-7. I like Russians. It's 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We got it. You're selling us on it. We got to go now. There's a restaurant up there. I'm not eating. After fucking staring at your cock for an hour and a half? No. I'm not going to be hungry. I'll tell you that. If anything, it'll be for a small meal. Okay. Maybe appetizers. Let's move on then. Let people eat there. Shrimp? Yeah, yeah. With the little hats. Anyway...

Are they there? Yeah, they are there. Asian women? Oh, yeah. Naked? No. See, that portion, we all get dressed. The third floor where the Bugamma room is. And then the first half of the thing, we go in the men's department. Yeah. We get naked there. And I'll get you a locker far away. You don't have to look at my genitals. No, I've seen it a thousand. It doesn't matter. I know, but you haven't seen it in the wild. It's different. It's different. Smaller? More claws. Wow. And fangs. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

You have to see in the wild. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that Bobby's dick? Anyway, so next Monday night, we're going to do a Bugamma Room Wii Spa experience, right? We'll go. You're flipped on it. We'll go. Anyway, perfect days. Vin Vinders directed it. And I think it's going to just, I think it's greatly going to redirect my life into a different area. So the gardening, let's go back to the gardening. Yeah. He gardens in it.

Okay? Yeah. Does he not? He has a little gardening in his little studio and I went, I've always wanted to do that. Yeah, me too. I just don't. Yeah, I don't. And so I went and bought a catnip setup to start after watching the movie and I've been watering it, watching it grow and there's just something about watching something grow from the soil that really does it for me. It's beautiful. I had a gardening thing at our old house that we had for a long time. We grew a lot of stuff and ate it all the time but then I just couldn't keep up with it but it was like a

It was pods. Have you seen these things before? Oh yeah, I saw them online. Yeah, we had one at the house and it was incredible. We had basil, we had lettuce, we had peppers. I don't remember what that thing is called. Yeah, I think I saw some. We got it gifted to us and we put it outside. The problem is,

It's circular. Hydro builder. Is that what it was called? Let me look at the hydro builder. Yeah, that's kind of what it was. It wasn't this company. I was thinking about getting one of those. Yeah. I don't know which one it was, but it was kind of similar to that. But the problem is it's 360. So it has to be placed in a place that gets all sides get sun, which is pretty tough. Very difficult. Yeah. Instead of being flat like a garden, so it gets direct overhead. It doesn't spin? No.

No, they make ones that have wrote that you can rotate but it's because the base of that is filled with water It's heavy as fuck. Yeah, and what happens is it wrote it waters itself every 15 minutes So you don't have to do anything you stuff to test the pH and make sure it's balanced Okay, it was cool. But then I was like this is not really gardening. This is cheap grow a city garden I want to do it the right way but then I have to get pots and are you just growing it in the front of your house like in a

In like a little dirt spot? Yep. Yeah. You got to build a box. You got to build boxes. I'll build a box. Will you really? I'd come over and do that with you. I'm going to race for it. That's my Wii spa. We'll do some white people shit like gardening. But we're going to do both then. By the way, you know what movie I got caught in? Not movie, but series. And you're going to be over it. But on the plane ride, just now from Dallas. TikTok dancing? I watched four episodes of Long Strange Trip.

Dude, I love that. That's what got me back into the fucking grave. Got me back in the grave of death. Here's what's crazy. Yeah. Like a couple years ago, because the guy who I play on, Dave, Mike, the real guy, him and I are friends, and he's a big Phish fan. He, you know, likes this world a lot. And I said...

"Hey, I started listening to the dead again." I don't know why. In high school, I liked it okay, but I wasn't really... And then I really started to kind of get into it a couple years ago again, and then I watched this documentary,

to kind of validate why I like them, 'cause I didn't really understand. I was like, "I just like their shit, I guess." But man, this goes so deep. - Bro. - It goes so deep. And I don't know if deadheads are probably fucking, I don't know if they like it, if like real fans like it. - They do. - I don't know. - I'll tell you why they do. May I tell you why I do? - Oh, please. - In the late '80s, right, Omar and all my friends, they were all deadheads. And they would still go to the shows back in the day, right?

And I was a velvet underground guy. I was more like New York street. I didn't like flower power. You like grungy. I like heroin, S&M kind of things. Dirt bags. Yeah. There's a better way to say it. You like CBGB. Yeah, like CBGB. The remote, that kind of thing, right? Dirty. Sorry.

You're right. Yeah, you like dirty. Dirty fingernails. So that's fine. But these people had dirty fingernail fans too. Right, right. So my whole life, I hated the fucking dead. What? Hated them. So not hateable. I'll tell you why. I don't like 45-minute jams in G minor. When you're ripped, you do. I know you do. But it's like I'm more like two, three-minute song, whatever, right? Right, right, right. So I don't know where I was, but I was with a bunch of hippies, old hippies.

And I was going, it was just like, now I'm 52, right? And I'm like, yeah, fuck the dead. And like, did you see Long Strange Strip on Amazon? And he goes, no, I will refuse, right? But then one guy was like, dude, I know who it was. I know who it was. It was J.H. Harris, J.F. Harris. J.F. Harris, the comic, yeah. It was J.F. Harris. We were with a bunch of hippies and him. And J.F. goes, dude, I was always like you, but then I saw that documentary and it changed my whole thing. Yeah. And I go, are you sure? He's like, just watch it.

And once I saw it, dude, I just started, that's all he listened to. It's incredible. Well, I think with something that he said we related to, Jerry had said some things in it that I related to so much as a comic. He one time said, maybe Weir was quoting about him, but he had said that musicians have tricks.

And I immediately thought of us. I go, so do comics. You have tricks. And he goes, when you're live, there's tricks that you know gets them in the, ah, or does the thing. And without getting too deep into it, performers know what your tricks are that you can kind of get away with. And sometimes you do the tricks and you go, I don't even like that, but I know it's going to razz them up a little bit. You know what it is. I rely on mine so much. Well, and that's fine. So many tricks. But Jerry said once they learned how to do tricks-

he realized how little he wanted to do them anymore because then he thought

Everybody can do these tricks, that means. He was saying, it's like in our reference, if you play a video game and once you beat it once and someone else is talking to you about them trying to beat it, you know when you're a kid and somebody's like, dude, and then do you know when you get to the castle? And in your head, you're like, I already know this. And I already know where you have to go. And he was saying- Where do you go in the castle? You have to go down again. You have to go one more level down. Yeah, you always have to go down. And you know why you have to go down? Yeah, why? To get up. You got to get back up. Got to go down to get up. To go down again. And so he, Jerry was translating that tricks, he-

fucking hated. And he was like, I don't give a fuck if the set suffers a little bit, if we can find it more organically than us doing a trick to get back. And I thought, that's what all comics are striving to do, is to wipe away your tricks and what? And take some fucking risks and maybe a joke bombs and maybe a transition doesn't work as clean. But without the trick, you feel more real. And when Jerry...

profess that that's part of the reason I think the band became so prolific because they were like no more tricks we'll try we'll just keep working it till it's magic what's wrong did I piss you off no he doesn't do that he relies on the tricks no you don't that's not true I do no you don't you just taught me no more tricks no you don't what are you saying what tricks for me by the way Jerry without a beard

Not good. Not a great looking guy without the beard. Rest in peace. But man, when you see some photos, you're like, the beard was good. Sometimes, like a guy like me, if I shave my fucking beard, yeah, different guy. It's a different kind of. Different guy. Yeah, yeah. Like me without a beard is not, I'm not, I do not like my face without a beard. I'm born, I am born with beard. Some people must have beard. Carlos, must have beard. I've seen you without a beard, must have beard. Thanks, man. Yeah, no, dude, you and I, same face. Must have beard. You don't need beard. I can't.

That's your Native American name. Don't need beard. I must have beard. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He must have beard. But anyway, that documentary really kind of, it changed me. It brought me back to what I...

What? You're fucking laughing at me? What are you laughing at, man? Just must have beard. Must have beard. Very funny joke. I laugh at your joke. Gone are the days when the ox fall down. I really like him. And I'm a big John Mayer fan. And then listening to John do it is, I don't know, it's pretty cool. With Dead & Company is actually pretty good. So I watched that on the way to Dallas. And I'm telling you.

I validated why I like them. I was like, why do I like them? - Right. - Yeah, I was like, right, yes, because they fucking, they're free and they really are because of the acid tests open up their range of freedom and they just-- - Also that we are, you know what I mean, they all stuck together for many, many years together. - As long as they could until fucking, I think, unfortunately, the doctor talks about how drugs just separated the fuck out of them and pig pens death and I think-- - We should do this as long as we can. - Until we die. I will do this forever with you. - Okay. - And let's do more magic.

Well, I've got some exciting news. Congratulations. Well, it's actually for you. Oh, shit. I got a phone call from our agents saying, hey, we are probably going to have to add seats and shows for Australia for Down Under. Sold a good amount of tickets. So people, our Australian fans, coming to see us. They're excited. So we're going to add seats. We're going to add shows. Go to badfriendspod.com. You can actually see all the tickets. And we're coming down to Sydney, Brisbane, Oakland, Melbourne, Idlib, Perth.

By the way, this was a big point of contention. I said to my agent, Perth is on the western part of Australia. It's fucking forever away. Australia is like America. Will we be able to stay in a couple of cities for a couple of days or no? We kind of can do it. It's going to shift around. We can also stay longer. You have friends I want to hang out with and stuff. Yeah, we can do that. But not over there. Yeah, yeah. But...

I think we're going to add some seats in Sydney and all that stuff because they showed up. Yeah, it's a five-hour flight from Sydney to Perth. It's huge. It's a huge place. But here's what boned us. We're going to Perth last. So we're going west, and then we got to go all the way back east, back to America. I always want to see a cane frog. You're going to see a cane frog. Really? And we're going to go pet kangaroos. You know about the story about the cane frog? No. Okay. Well, give it. I don't know either. No, I do. No, what happened was- What is this?

The cane frog is... Cane frog. Look up cane frog. It's a 20-hour flight back home from Perth. So, you know, sugar cane trees, plants? Yeah. Right? There was a bug that was like, you know what I mean, eating those up in Australia, attacking the crops. So they've shipped cane frogs over there because they thought that cane frogs would eat those bugs, but they couldn't jump high enough, right, to eat, they could get the bug. And these fuckers fucking reproduce so fast that...

The whole fucking country is riddled with cane frogs. I mean, maybe I've seen them when I was out there. Yeah, it's destroying things. I'll tell you what we're fucking littered with is cicadas. Cicadas are disgusting. I was back in, dude, when I was in Nashville, they're so loud that when you go outside. What is it, locust? No, a cicada. I've never heard of it.

You don't know what a cicada is? Never even heard even the sounding of... The sounds I never heard. Oh my God. Cicadas. Cicada with a C. Do you guys not know what a cicada is? Yes. Carlos, do you don't know what a cicada is? These things go underground, Bob. They bury themselves. For how long? Is it a decade? Is it 10 years? Every 10 years they resurface and they infest parts of the country and they're...

My lord. Think about how creepy that is, Bob. Underneath you right now. What? There's a billion different versions of this burrowing beneath our feet. Holy shit. Creating an infrastructure and a system. It's insane, dude. Chit chat. Chit chat. Chit chat. Periodical cicadas are insects that spend most of their lives on the ground feeding off the sap of tree roots underground. Underground, yeah. What?

Every 17 years. You can't tell me this doesn't mean something. This is like, you know, you remember when they thought that like, you know, like in the Bible, it says raining locusts and all that bullshit. It was just this. It's just this. We're just seeing it differently. Yeah. Chat. Chat. Chat. Chat. Anyway, thank you for being a bad friend.
