Happy 200th episode. This is it? Yeah, I think this is it. This is not 40. It's 200. It is 200. This is 200, baby. And what big special plans did we do? Blake, you have any special plans for 200? I know the listeners. TII Nation is like, what did Blake plan? Something sick, something outrageous, something dope, something for real.
It is with it. I think we have a big secret, right? No, no, no. I'm asking what you specifically are bringing to the table. Me? Yeah, what did you do? Yeah, what are you bringing to the table for this? We don't want to hear your secrets. Well, so you don't want to hear what I had to say, huh? No, we want to hear what you have to say, but we don't want to hear your secrets. I had a really big secret I wanted to reveal, but I will sit on that for...
episode 400 when I reveal my secret. No! Wait, no! Hey, hey, hang on. Hang on. Wait. Wait. Something just popped up on the screen. That was weird. That was wild.
That was weird. And Durst, did you plan any big surprise or any epic event for the podcast? Is there a secret you want to tell us? Well, I wanted to do something special. I know, I think for our 100th, maybe it was our 69th, I wore a tuxedo. Oh, we all did. And so for today, I wore a t-shirt. Okay. The color of a tuxedo, black and white. Pretty cool. Wow. Not, no, I don't think.
No! Hang on. Something keeps popping up. Something keeps flashing. I mean, my tech ghost is haunting us, and I feel like the ghost of...
podcast past is coming back to haunt us. You know Slender Man? Yeah, of course. I feel like I just saw Not So Slender Man. Yeah, that's weird. But more slender than has been before, man. I would say he's entering Slender Man territory. Ladies and gentlemen. Yeah, losing weight, man. For the 200th episode. Hey, shut up. One more time. Let me do it again. Take two. Ladies and gentlemen.
All right. Ready? No, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, okay. Sorry, sorry, sorry. Ladies and gentlemen, for the 200th episode, we would like to reintroduce our good friend and ex-podcast co-host, Kyle Newichick! Hey! Yo! Yo!
Hello, hello. Dark Rooters. Blake, do you have an applause or no? I think that there's nothing. You couldn't add anything to the... I was waiting for a board. Did you have like a fizz plan for your bae, bruh?
Anything? Yeah. Anything? I mean, we knew this was happening, Blake. It's not like it was- What'd you pick for me, Blake? What'd you pick? Yeah, I know you had something planned over here. Come on. Special board drop for your boy? Yeah, where's the special board drop, Blake? Hit him with it. Absolutely nothing. Anything? Hit him with something saucy. And what are you even looking for? Look at his eyes. Yeah.
It's okay. The moment has passed. It's okay. Oh, okay. Trojan man. Interesting. That's cool. That would have been something. It would have been something.
If you would have dropped it at the right time. Okay, thank you. Thank you, Blake. This is only the 200th episode, so we'll figure it out maybe by 400 or 600. We're hoping so. Congratulations, gentlemen. Yes, yo, hi. Welcome back.
Are we going to let him talk? Dark greetings. Dark greetings. What's up? We're not used to it. We're not used to leaving that much room for Kyle to talk. We kind of fell into a really sexy groove there for a while. Right. Now Kyle's back. We'll see what happens. We're not sure if it's going to be good or bad or a little chunky. Yeah, I'll tell you. I'll tell you. It's going to clunk for a little bit. I know it. I can feel it. But.
Once we get all four wheels on the three wheeler, we're going to be screaming baby. Okay. The king return of the king return of the king. He's back. Mr. Metaphor himself. Damn. I didn't want him to be so just good and prolific. Right. And when you put it that way, when you, when you
put it that way i'm like oh yep he's you turn a trike into a car baby here we are what's up what's up oh now he's rhyming holy cow rhyming this guy's coming on fire so what what happened here kyle uh your show got canceled and then you feel like you can come back to the yeah the to the podcast or what's the deal they run out of babies up there in toronto yeah you full yeah
Oh, yeah. What the fuck? Because we kind of had a cohesive thing going on where our little spices were blending quite nicely. What do you got? The floor is yours. Which floor is yours, Kyle? Which part do you want to know about? The show first or the babies or what's going on? Which one first, huh? Babies. Babies. Okay.
Whatever strikes your fancy Well I know your kids I've met your children They're no longer babies those are children That's not what I'm talking about I think he's talking about his diet Yeah something's going on in the comments Because I've been posting pickleball Clips and fucking everybody's just Talking about how I'm eating babies And I'm just like how the fuck did people Find out about this shit This is not denying it We knew Hollywood elite What are y'all doing
What are you doing? Hey, Kyle, you're back on the podcast. The floor is yours. The floor is yours. Okay, well, that is supposed to be a secret, and nobody's supposed to know about that kind of stuff. I thought that was between us. I love this. So that's rough. All right, how do they taste?
I gotta try them. You gotta try them. Okay, open for interpretation. What a giving guest. You gotta try them. You gotta try them. By the way, you're a guest today. Okay, cool. Good, good. Yeah, seventh guest on the pod. We liked it. There we go. Yeah. There was a lot of guests in Atlanta City. The last guest was Connor, who pierced his nipple, and I want to say he was maybe my favorite so far. Oh.
Oh, I definitely saw the footy of that on Instagram. That looked fucking wild and cool. We had fun. So you've been cyberstalking. Cyberstalking us and just kind of peeking in into our world. Yep, when I get a chance.
I definitely check and see what the boys are up to, man, all the time. Thank you. All the time. I don't listen. I don't listen. Okay. But I do watch on Instagram. You never have. Yeah. You never have. Go ahead. Adam, sorry. The floor is yours. The floor is yours. When we collectively were saying we're not sure...
whether or not we're not sure if you're off eating babies. Right. Because we don't know because you're doing the podcast. That's that's what we're saying. We were saying we never said you. I mean, maybe we did, but maybe
Usually we didn't say that you are eating babies. We say, we don't know what you're doing. Is he eating babies? We're not sure because he's not on the podcast and we don't get to catch up with him. So we're not sure if he is eating babies. If he is quite literally, which is the thing I'm saying now is quite literally. Yeah, that's good. Yeah. And then you come on the podcast and then you kind of just admitted to eating babies.
I didn't know that you left it a question mark. I didn't know that, and it is, in fact, a question mark still, okay? Oh, wow. I'm not admitting to anything. I'm not admitting to anything. The floor is yours. Happy for the floor. Dude, and the other guys have met my son, Bo, and I don't know if you're allowed, dude. Oh, fuck. Too delish. Because he's cute. He's got these cute little fingers and cute little toes. You might start nibbling. You might start nibbling.
So much has happened since you've been gone. Adam, in your estimation, is that what you think people eat off of babies first? Is that the best part? Is the fingers and toes? The best part of eating babies is the fingers and the toes. I don't know. I mean, honestly, I think the amount of baby eating is probably realistically so low. So low. But I think we can all agree that it's definitely those baby back ribs.
Thank you. I want my babies back. All right. Off baby eating. Yeah, that's cool. We can skip that. So the show... Shadows. What we do in the shadows. Adam's really going down the note card right now. I know. It's good. We're catching up. I like that. I've been working on the final season. It's been one week. How are you getting me into it?
I've been working on the final season. It's been taking a lot of the mind. It's been taking a lot of the time. It's like it just, it's a fucking grind, dude. And we're out here doing it and it's almost over. It's almost done. Quick question. Like when you guys are doing the final episode or even the final scene, is it a lot like, is everyone like crying, like getting through scenes? Yes, that started this week.
A lot of tears. This week is the emotional week where everything is the final final. You know, like the last time. That's kind of fun, though. It's great. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. Remember the last week on Workaholics? It was just like you're like touching. I would just find myself like touching stuff. I'd be like kind of just rubbing the desk and being like. Yeah, that was my thigh. That's what I call my desk. Your thigh, dude. That's where I get to work. Okay. Shit. That's cool.
Oh, my God. I guess you sit on your desk. I'm going to do some. Daddy's got to go do some work. Okay. You can go sit on his desk. Yep. We heard you say that one, Blake. Give a new one. No, it's funnier when you say it like four times. It gets better. Go for it. Repetition. You've only said it twice. You had two more. I think he's going to go sit on his desk. Yeah. I think he's going to go sit on his desk. Yep. Okay. Ooh.
beautiful yeah beautiful that's a wrap on well why don't you cry about it i do remember i do remember there being a lot a lot of emotions last week that was that was very fun it runs hot it's like everybody's feeling it everybody's vibing everybody's like oh my god that's the last line i'm ever gonna say that's the last time i'm putting on this outfit that's the last time that this set is being used and as as sort of the the general of the production as the producer and director uh
Are you just like, yo, hey, guys, quit being bitches. Focus up. We're making our day. You're kind of being a bitch about it. Pretty much. Pretty much. And that's where I store it. Do you ever sit Matt Berry down and just being like, hey, buddy, you're being a bitch about it. Maybe. Matt, buddy, chill the fuck out. We get it. It's the last. You've been on a lot of shows, dude. You've done this. I expect a little bit more.
No emotions. Yeah, this is just a job, bro. But no, no. I mean, you go that way. I find myself, if I'm being permission to be real. Yeah, you have the floor. He's back. I find myself suppressing my emotions with that mentality. You know what I mean? Compartmentalizing everything that's making me sad into that area.
are you directing with like sunglasses on so like no one can see what's happening what's he doing over there i'm making my sad yeah i said action when the emotion comes in you're just like oh well fine one more week and then i'm out of here i'm not coming back and you turn it into a bit but it's like is that the bit that's the bit but it's like really i'm i'm
Crying. So are you as emotional for this as you were on Workaholics? And permission to be real. Yeah. Okay. Permission granted. I have the floor? You do have the floor. Yeah. Permission granted. Awesome. Yeah, you haven't been listening, but this is like a thing we're doing. We're implementing like a...
the floor the like the four uh parliament rules or something very nice well well said adam i'm glad you had the floor parliament funkadelic sit on daddy's desk or whatever the fuck blake said yeah sit on daddy's lap it gets funnier every time kyle you have the desk go ahead i have your thigh okay my hand is on your thigh here we go and
No, I was definitely more emotional with Workaholics ending. Yes! Okay, yes. I wasn't doing Shadows season one. So they played the gag reel. You barely care. I was there at season two, so two through six. And they played the gag reel and a lot of stuff was from season one. I was kind of like...
Might as well be strangers to you. What's the gag reel? Is that what I think it is? No, no, it's not that. It's jokes, Blake. It's jokes. You're thinking about the chorg reel? I am, baby. You know, I always
always hated the at the rap part of the gag reels where like everyone has to just like watch the actors more I'm like didn't they all do this all season yeah weren't they all there yeah but they they kind of like it and every once in a while you get like uh
hair and makeup department in something you know they i like though i like that yeah i'm a big fan of that i'm not a big fan of like watching someone try and get a take because everyone's like yeah no that was the day i missed my kids whatever right like somebody's getting super fucking emotional in the corner yeah you you couldn't get that line
I remember that day. That day that you couldn't stop laughing and I missed my daughter's graduation. Yeah, I remember that day. That's a funny outtake. Actually, can I get a copy of that? That's a real gag. That was really funny. That was the day my husband got in that car accident. And I didn't have my phone on me because we were shooting in this dumbass location.
I told you guys and you wouldn't let me rap. You said I had to be there for continuity. Yeah, that's funny. That's funny. That's a real gag. We're not saying it's not funny. But it is the day that my husband got in the car accident. Life's a gag and then my husband died. That's a gag.
Yeah, they had a lot of that. They had a lot of like, you know, behind the scenes in the gag reel, which is, that's a hit at the wrap party, you know, be where it's all the cameraman and yeah.
And all the gaffers and grips and camera women and camera people and all that doing their thing. Thank you for mentioning other people. Welcome back to reality, Kyle. I'm so sorry. Welcome, Kyle. Whoa. I know you're in Canada. Where there's women. Oh, my gosh. You guys are ruthless, okay? We're woke now. Hey, we're woke now. Sorry, we're woke.
Finally, geez. Let's get there. We're wokesters. Get with the program. Get with the show, Graham. All right, cool. Right on. Good, good. I do like that, like how we had on Workaholics, that we knew it was the last episode. Classic show. You know what I mean? I liked that we went into season seven knowing that it was our last season.
Because so many shows, like, I don't know about gemstones. We might just, you know, we're doing season four. Maybe it's our last or not. We just don't, we don't know. Right. I act every scene as if it's my last. That's huge. Yeah. Like kind of full of resentment and like half and like, this is probably my last scene. Fuck this.
Have you noticed that? Watching your performances, I do notice that. Can you see that I'm kind of like one foot out the door? If I leave now, I'm beating traffic kind of like behind the eyes. That's the vibe. You call cut yourself during the scene and that's a cut. If you watch closely, you can hear me go cut.
Cut. Cut. When they're on me, but I'm not saying anything. Cut. Cut. I think I noticed that in the intern a lot. Yeah. Yeah. I saw it in that Godzilla. Acting opposite Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro. You were like- When I divulge my affairs and I just, I'm like- You kept like- It's right there. You got it. You got it. You got it. Still rolling? You got it. You kept flashing the camera with your eyes. You'd be like, in the scene and then go-
Yeah. Huh? Yeah. Looking down the barrel. Down the barrel again. I think we got credit. Credit to Nancy. Credit to Nancy. Nancy Meyers. Same mentality. That's why we click. We text every day. It's like, let's just let's just make our day. It's in the text from her is mostly like, why does your background of your podcast set up look so shitty?
Nancy Meyers, known for her interior design. Yeah, her design. It's usually just like, hey, one poster that looks like Satan and then a movie poster that's on the floor and a whiteboard with nothing on it, but way off in the corner. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah. Well, I have to erase the stuff because then all of a sudden everyone's going to steal my ideas. This right here? Yeah, what is that? What are we looking at? That's Eagle Heart Johnny Ryan. Johnny Ryan. Eagle Heart from like, I don't know, like a screening that they did. And so, you know. Dude, Eagle Heart. Legendary show. Eagle Heart was very cool. So good. And then this poster down here. Monsanto.
Game over man Game over man We were in that movie and Kyle directed it Yeah It's really good Shot by Ativa Ativa Ativa
Oh, the poster. Shot by Atiba Jefferson. Blake, the floor is yours. Go ahead. Yep, yep, yep. Well, I just wanted to give Atiba a shout out for shooting our poster for Game Over Man. Well done. Yeah, man. Yeah, he did. He did our poster for Workaholics. Sorry, for The Outlaws as well. Look at that. He's in the biz. And for This Is Important, he did our photography. That's right. He also shot that. That's right. He always seems to be...
They're shooting. I think we hired him to do it is what I think. Maybe we should give him the floor.
Have it all.
It is summer, and on NPR's Planet Money podcast, that means it is time to grab your notebooks and your headphones and tune into the economics crash course for your ears.
Planet Money Summer School is covering the economic history of the world. From the birth of money to the Industrial Revolution to modern trade policy, we've got the lessons to keep you sounding smart at the beach with help from real economic historians. Every Wednesday until Labor Day. Listen to Planet Money from NPR on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.
Guess what, Mango? What's that, Will? So iHeart is giving us a whole minute to promote our podcast, Part-Time Genius. I know. That's why I spent my whole week composing a haiku for the occasion. It's about my emotional journey in podcasting over the last seven years, and it's called Earthquake House. Mango, I'm going to cut you off right there. Why don't we just tell people about our show instead? Yeah, that's a better idea. So every week on Part-Time Genius, we feed our curiosity by answering the world's most important questions.
Things like, when did America start dialing 911? Is William Shatner's best acting work in Esperanto? Also, what happened to Esperanto? Plus, we cover questions like, how Chinese is your Chinese food? How do dollar stores stay in business? And of course, is there an Illuminati of cheese? There absolutely is, and we are risking our lives by talking about it. But if you love mind-blowing facts, incredible history, and really, really, really, really,
♪♪♪
Kyle? Yeah. Where are you staying? Where are you staying? Because it does look cool. Yeah, by the time this airs, you won't be there anymore. So can you just dox yourself, please? Yeah, yeah. I'm in Toronto. I'm in Toronto. I'm staying down by the beach. It looks really nice because the last time you were in Toronto, it looked kind of depressing, your living situation. You're like, oh, okay.
Just wet clothes hanging off of a rowing machine. Yeah, that's bad. Yeah, it looks like kind of sad and more depressed vibes. But this looks like it has a lot of natural light. Is that it? I mean, it's a staircase, but it could double as an elevator. Yeah.
Are you upstairs at a nice Wells Fargo? Yeah, it does seem like... In, like, the break area? Yeah, it does seem like a Wells Fargo. We found... Well, I brought the family this year. So, like, we moved to a house by the beach and basically, like, just set up shop for four months, man. The whole time I've been out here. Nice. Yeah. Now...
Why don't I know? How come there's a beach in Toronto? Yeah, it's the lake. It's by the lake. So they call it the beach. I mean, you know that right from your Chicago. Of course, grew up on the beach myself. Yeah. So hey, shout out Lake Michigan. This is all the same lake.
No, no. These are the Great Lakes, but this one is Ontario. This one's Lake Ontario. I'm on the North Shore. I've heard of it. That's one I feel like a lot of people don't fuck with Lake Ontario. That one doesn't get a lot of shine. Well, it does. Well, it does. It does up north. Because it's got Niagara Falls. Oh, my God. Heard of it? That's a big one. Yeah, I've heard of that. Yeah.
Yeah. I've heard of that. I've always wanted to go to that. That looks quite intriguing to me. Niagara Falls is one of the sickest fucking waterfalls, bro. Yeah. You pulled up. You pulled up to the falls? Oh, dude. Yeah, I'll pull up to the falls anytime, especially on the Canadian side up here. That's the fucking view. Wait, what? Yeah. Oh, you're taking sides now. Interesting. Okay. Yeah, you're more of a Canuck now. Okay, I see you. For the view of Niagara Falls? Yeah, consider me in Canada. Yeah.
Wait, what's the difference? Is it a little lower on our side or what's the big difference here? Well, when you're on the New York side, if you're looking at the falls, the falls fall away from you. When you're on the Canadian side, the falls fall towards you. So you get to see it. It's a better view from the Canadian side. So I recommend that.
over the other one. And it's fucking, they are pounding, dude. Motherfuckers are going off this shit in barrels, by the way. And it's the most insane shit. Still? To this day? I thought that was like a 1930s Harry Houdini type shit. They're still fucking with it, dude. No, no, they're still, I'm looking at it right now. And a lot of people, a lot of people survive. That's insane. And here's the thought for Bad Ideas 6.
season two. If I do season two. No, we're back. Don't do it. Maybe I get it. We have scientists construct like an absolutely indestructible barrel. It's tough. It's tough. Why is it tough? I feel like it's not that tough. It's not tough. You put yourself
What you do is you crawl inside the barrel and then you just go off of it. It's not tough. Do you know the first person to go over the falls was a 68-year-old woman in the late 1800s? Okay, I got to check that. That is woke as hell, dude, and I like that. Yeah, she'd fucking had it. Kids driving her crazy? Yeah, she was the first one to do it. She fucking rocked it, bro. And she was like, when she finished, when she got out, she was like, I'd rather be shot in the face with a cannonball than do that again. Whoa.
Okay. That's why I'm saying maybe you don't want to do it, dude. Well, hang on, Kyle. That would kill her. This chick rips. Kyle, you're a liar because I'm looking at it right now. Oh, shit. The first one was 1853. That's Joseph Avery, dead. Then an unnamed man. Oh, that's her. That's her. Then an unnamed man, dead. And then it's Annie Edison Taylor, 1901. That's her. So he's saying first to survive. Yeah.
So I'm not a liar. Small detail. Oh, the first to survive. You fucking... Okay, I thought you said the first person to do it. You fucking... Dude, but welcome back, dude. We put each other in the crosshairs. We fucking drag you over the coals. Well, that's good. Yeah, I'll quantify it. I'll quantify it from here on out. I appreciate that kind of knowledge. She put a cat
in a barrel and set it up two days before and she was just like, you know, this cat's fine. The cat didn't die? That's such a Durr's move. Yeah. The cat was fine. So then she was like... The cat had a little cut on it. That's about it though. When the cat came back, I thought it was a goner. And then she went and did it
and was bleeding. She was bleeding, but she wasn't seriously injured. So that's kind of tight that this, I mean, looking at her, she's a thick broad, this thick broad. Rock and roll grandma. I mean, how did this even come up?
Why would they go put me in a barrel and send me down this thing? What the fuck? Because people are cool, dude. People have been cool for a long time. That's on the Canadian side for sure. I know the Annie Edison story because I've been kind of like intrigued by it over the past couple of years. Okay. Pervert. Okay.
The last couple of years? Yeah, yeah. Because I shot down there a couple years ago and that's when I first saw the falls and I saw the barrel. He's just ruminating on this. I feel like Kyle had dark times and he's like, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. Well, this is why he didn't have time to record a one-hour podcast once a week with his friends. It's because he's too busy ruminating about Annie Edison Taylor 1901. He's writing the Wikipedia page. They're like, where's Kyle? He's
He's like, he's been staring at Niagara Falls for 10 straight hours. We found him. I'm going to do it. Just holding a pickleball paddle. And this is the only he keeps looking at it and whispering. You're the only thing keeping me here. Maybe six feet.
Ain't so far. Hey, real talk, you guys. Real talk. You guys know me real well, and I like you for that. That's cool, man. But her son had died, and her husband died, and she fell on- Just before she went over? Yeah, she fell on financial troubles. She was like a dance instructor and also a teacher, and then she wanted to retire, and she thought that if she went off the falls, if she survived it, she would-
be financially stable for the rest of her life because what she like did it in a barrel that said like wells fargo wells fargo on it like no because of just like early daredevil shit she thought she would be able to do it and then sell out arenas basically and talk about how she did it i don't know if there was like a religious angle i love how back in the day you just had to do something crazy and then walk around the earth being like i'm that lady yeah
and talk about it. Yeah. She wanted to go viral, dude. Dude, that's the... She was the original person to go viral. She wanted to, but it didn't quite work. She did not make a lot of money and ended up dying a very poor person. And somebody stole the barrel from her, which was fucked up. What the...
Are you serious? That sucks. Her fucking manager stole the barrel. Isaac? Fucking bullshit, dude. I'm pissed. Fucking Isaac. The Isaac of her. That's fucked up. I'm going to take it to get cleaned. Well, that's why, if you're back in the day, it's cool to do Daredevil-type stuff, obviously, because that rocks. Like, Houdini-type stuff. But what's cooler is being, like, a...
a criminal, right? I feel like criminals, they really shined in the early 1800s. Oh, you're talking about like a... Adam, where are you going with this? He's talking about a battle of infamies, right? Different infamies or whatever. Yes, I'm like, if you'd prefer to be... But what do you have on deck? What are we talking here? I like this. You have the floor. No, I think you'd prefer to be like Jesse James. If you're going to...
Over Evil Knievel? Well, Evil Knievel was the 70s. I'm saying like way back over this lady that just fucking... Yeah, what else was going on during this time on our planet while she was going overboard? Like if you're looking to get rich, rob banks with your friends and be a fucking badass. What year was this? Did we have that? This is 1901 is what he said. 1901. And by the way, banks were getting robbed.
Every day. My great, great, great, great uncle or whatever. This is where we're going. Was in the Jesse James gang. Yeah. And I mean, he was murdered.
You know these bank robbers were murderers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You'd just be a murderer. And you rob trains and you rob... And by the way, you don't murder anyone unless they pull a gun on you and then you gotta do murders. I don't know if that was true. No, I don't think that was true with everybody. I think everybody had a different code. That was like the code? Not for everybody, but hey, for me, if I was gonna start a... I think you come from a long line of murderers. I think you...
Love to justify murder, and it's concerning. Straight to the temple divine. I think being a bank robber would be kind of fun. And anytime I'm in a bank... Adam, again, these are murderers. Okay, I know, I know. Yeah. So what are we talking about? Yeah, what are we talking about? You think it'd be fun to... What have you guys...
What happened? Murder people. No, every time I'm in, I'm not talking about the murders. Okay. The murders, they're excluded from this conversation. Those aren't important. Okay. Those are just the minor detail. We're brushing past the murders. Okay. Right. So you're talking about a different universe where to be a bank robber, you don't have to murder. You don't have to murder to be a bank robber. Maybe people have robbed banks. And what do you have to do? You don't want to know. I think you just have to show a gun. You have to stick a gun in someone's face and get the money.
You like the idea of sticking a gun in someone's face, maybe even pistol whipping one tough guy just to show the rest of them to shut the fuck up. Yeah. In the early 1900s. Nowadays, no. Okay. I don't want to do it. And this is over going over a barrel in the falls. Like you would rather. Over going over the, yeah. Now and surviving. And in that parallel universe.
I guarantee survival. Okay. Okay. Or being like a Buffalo Bill Cody where you like you're you have murdered. You've murdered. Okay. He's for sure murdered. A lot of people. Okay. But then you still get to go on tour. You went on tours shooting shooting little. Oh, yeah. He's a rock star. Oh, doing the gun show. Okay. I guess I don't know who this is. He's like a gun guy.
Gunslinger? Oh, you don't know Buffalo Bill Cody? Come on, man. I don't know the intricacies of... How don't you know your Wild West heroes, dude? Buffalo Bill Cody. Never, never, never, ever gave a fuck. Oh, wow. I guess, sorry, my heroes aren't bank robbers. That's weird. I guess I didn't lean in. And also, I don't think I would want to be a bank robber going over the falls in the barrel. I think I'd rather do that. I think I would. Yeah. Yeah, it seems way...
way less harmless or way, way more harmless. You're doing harm to yourself as opposed to like maybe having to shoot somebody if they pull a gun on me for robbing the bank. Right. Yeah. But here's, here's what you're doing. You're robbing the bank. Okay.
Right. Okay, yeah. Keep working on this one. Hey, the bank's insured. Yeah. The fact that you guys... Are they at that point? For sure. But are the banks insured in 1901? This is actually pissing me off a little bit. Yeah, they were. He's getting pissed now. They're not insured in 1901. Yes. According to every movie I've ever seen, yes, they were. Okay. He does say it in Shanghai Noon. Okay. Fair. Maybe. But I'm so... It's actually... I'm like really bummed that you guys... Anytime I walk into a bank...
Still to this day. Yeah. I think like, could I rob this bank? Sure. They're lucky you don't have a gun. Is it, is there a possibility of robbing this bank? I'm looking around. Anytime. Anytime. You're checking this out. Jesus. Literally every time I'm in a bank, I'm like, could I rob this bank? Holy mackerel. You just need new checks. When I see them open, you know, sometimes they're like behind the thing and they open the big, uh,
Sure. Sometimes. Always. And you look back there and you're like, man, I would like to repel. I'd like to come through an air duct and repel down. Well, that's the part of bank robbering that's dope. Shoot two innocent people.
I'd rather do a mediocre podcast and this before podcast. I'm not talking about the guys are being repelled. You repel. Yeah, you did repel. You could repel. You could repel in 1901.
You can't repel? It's a fucking rope. On with what? Some twine? Regular ass? They got twine and pulleys. It's going to be rough. It's a goddamn rope. Yeah, Blake. They definitely have rope. I'm leaning towards Adam now. It's a fucking rope, dude. You think repelling is a new thing? Yeah. Absolutely. How do you? Come on, man. What are you doing with this rope? You're having your friend lower you down? Yeah. That's right. You're going through chimneys.
The chimney at the bank? Yeah, chimney at the bank. This is 1901, you dumb fuck. Well, yeah, no, they did have chimneys. That leads right to the vault. They did have chimneys. No, you rappel down. Now you're inside the bank. Blake, in 1901, banks were almost all chimney. Yeah, they had a lot of chimney action. You could walk in the front door if you're just going into the bank. This is at night, and you're using dynamite. You're going to blow a hole in the wall, you dumb fuck.
See now this is what I like I like this part I like this part So that's a different thing you want to be a cat burglar Not a bank robber The thing about me I do both I'm fucking robbing I'm just about that money baby I'm not walking in during open hours man I'm definitely plotting and scheming The robbery where I gotta get past All the stuff Okay
but I'm not walking in there with a gun and a fucking mask on just like, give me all your money. That ain't me. That's the way to do it. No, no, no, no. Dude, we're not wearing a mask because we walk in, they know who the fuck we are. Right. It's actually helpful. That ain't me, dude. That ain't me. I'll be driving the car. Yeah, they actually know who the fuck they are. And they're like, we're not. I like that. But that's a good look, though. The old bandana over the face pointed down, that's a
It is a good look. That is cool. But if you're notorious enough, if you're killing tons of innocents in every bank you walk in, now they're going to say, hey, just give him the money because he kills children. He kills women. Adam, somebody's getting killed. Somebody's getting killed by accident at some point. He'll kill anything. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So you walk in. Well, Jesse James, he would like give people money. So people were like, all right. You know why? He had blood on his hands. He was like...
I might as well go over Niagara Falls in a barrel if I keep living this life. It actually disgusts me that you guys aren't about robbing banks in the early 1900s, late 1800s. Yeah. Well...
Look, I feel like you're kind of like pitching the bank robbing idea to me. And now I'm starting to see you have a vision. It's after the bank gets closed. It's nighttime. We're using dynamite. Hey, sometimes. Well, that's one part of it. Yeah, that's one. Yeah, we're we're rappelling down with the with the hemp rope. Sometimes you're like.
Hey, we're on the run, right? Because now the Texas Rangers, they're after us. The newly formed FBI, they're starting to come around. Not the baseball team, the Texas motherfucking Rangers. Okay, got it. They're after us. I mean, the other states, they're finally starting to talk to each other. They're like, oh, we got to get these guys. We're going from Texas to Oklahoma to Kansas, into Nebraska, down through Missouri. We're fucking on the run, dude.
What a nightmare. This part's also cool. I like this part. Can't you just set up shop somewhere? Like...
New York City and open up like a boutique. I like the on the run part too. I think that'll be fun. I just don't like walking in and pulling guns on people. Haven't you seen Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid? Like, it ain't fun. It's a great movie. But also, Adam, so now you're so notorious, how do you even spend this money? Like, what are you doing in your spare time when you're not robbing banks? Are you just hiding out with your bros? Probably playing poker. Yeah. You got it.
I mean, there's like an underground scene. There's like an underground scene. It's a hooker back house. It's poker. A lot of hanging out with hookers. A lot of playing like underground card games. I'm back in. Also, there's certain towns that you just go to and they don't give a fuck, dude. They're like, yeah, you roll through Tombstone or whatever. They're like, yeah, he's a fucking notorious. He's actually kind of tight. Isn't that where they all, the cops killed? Didn't they? No, I don't know.
I got to rewatch. Yeah. This is right before that. Yeah, this is when it was cool. At that time. This is right before Wyatt Earp showed up. Okay. Yeah. I bet with all that money at that time, you could go and incorporate your own city and make your own up and then have the law be like, I'm good. There you go. That's cool. Yeah. I mean, honestly. And that's Jacksonville, Florida. Sorry? Maybe that's Florida. Like, shut up, dude. What do you mean? Florida.
Just slamming on the brakes. What do you mean, bud? Put that on the board, please. Maybe that's Jacksonville, Florida. First of all, all the bank robberies, all the big time bank robberies happened in the Southwest or in the Midwest. Look at this weirdo, dude. So like, what is your, what do you love about it so much besides the murder that for sure happened? Well, in 1901, there was a great fire in Jacksonville, Florida. So that was just a little history lesson from a guy. Thank you.
The fact that you're not into this actually kind of weirds me out because it's so cool. I love all of those movies. I love all the old Western movies and I love the things about bank robbers. It's so dusty. Yeah. That's sick. That's sick.
That's tight. It's true. It is. It is. A lot of syphilis, too. A lot of syphilis, bro. Dude, you get those old school STDs where you're stricken. And syphilis is where they'd shove the fucking wide-ass needle in your urethra. Down your dick. That seemed like some pretty raw-ass shit. Adam's already walked down this lane, too, Kyle. You're not going to convince me. He's already talked about it.
And then you're back to Robin Banks. Not that bad. Down your dick. Very, very painful. They put this crazy needle down your dick. It's pretty severe. Adam's already figured out that preventatively, if you put the barrel of your own gun down your dick hole, it's basically loose and wide for whenever you get the syphilis.
And the doctor's like, well, this is easy. And the syphilis can just, yeah, it can just fall right out. Seeps out. Yeah, yeah. The syphilis will just seep right out. Nice. Wow, this is crazy. And that's from bank robbing. Okay, all right. Absolutely, yeah. Huh.

We're back with season two of the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network. You thought you had fun last season? Well, you were right. And you should tune in today for new fun segments like Sister Court and listening to Lacey's steamy DMs. We've got new and exciting guests like Michael Beach. That's my husband. Daphne Springs.
Daniel Thrasher, Peppermint, Morgan J., and more. You gotta watch us. No, you mean you have to listen to us. I mean, you can still watch us, but you gotta listen. Like, if you're watching us, you have to tell us. Like, if you're out the window, you have to say, hey, I'm watching you outside of the window. Just, you know what? Listen to the Amber and Lacey, Lacey and Amber show on Will Ferrell's Big Money Players Network on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Amber.
You're a gunslinger, right? You're a gunslinger. And, you know, like, you're a good guy. You're a good guy. But it's the old west. And if someone pulls a gun on you or someone steals your herd of cattle, maybe you're running cattle for a while. Sure. As a side hustle. You're a cowboy. And someone steals some cattle, boom, bam, hot damn, his skull's all over the floor, dude.
Damn. And look, the last thing I want to be seen as is a yellow belly, right? Exactly. Thank you. Yeah, no, I ain't no yellow belly. That's a good call. It seems, it's weird because I never thought of, I never thought of Ders as a yellow belly, but now. Until now? Now he's a no good yellow belly. Oh.
Oh, don't call them a yellow belly, man. That sucks. Is that racist? No, you're thinking of... Well, all I'm saying is I'm pitching my cool idea, and I thought we would be a fun gang. I'm like the four of us rolling into a bank, rolling into town, infamy. I think we are. We got black leather trench coats on. We're the guys that wear all black, but maybe one of us, maybe the leader. I don't know. Maybe it's me. I don't know. We'll see. Maybe he wears a white hat.
Oh, it's the white hat. Okay. And so you really know, or like a red hat or something. So you all wear red bandanas, all black. I want to wear a purple hat. I'm wearing a purple hat. Okay. I got a purple hat on. No, and I wear sandals. I want to wear sandals or moccasins. Blake's wearing sandals. Yeah, that's dope. That I got from a really beautiful Native American woman. Blake thinks he's like Tonto, which is just a whole thing. I'm also not down with the black coat. And they're like, you're appropriate.
Appropriating, bro. Okay, no. I'm not down with a black coat. I'm wearing a leather vest. Blake has a gun in somebody's face and they're like, really? You're appropriating? Yeah. I do the war paint. Hey, guys. What? It's kind of a uniform and we can't just wear whatever we want. Like, the leader gets to wear one.
piece of flair. This is like Papa Smurf. I feel like everybody should have at least one piece of flair that like I obviously wear a headdress. Yeah. One hundred percent. Well, then who's the leader? Because think about like a band like they're sure there's the lead singer, but then there's like that. There's like Slash. Yeah. He's almost more iconic than Axl. Yeah. It's neck and neck. He's got the hat because he's got the hat. He's got the moccasins. Here's the deal. It's not it's not just it's not pieces of flair. OK. It's not the moccasins.
It's one of us carries a shotgun. Oh, the gun. The first sawed-off shotgun. One of us has two pistols and does a lot of tricks. Oh, okay, okay. So I spray paint. I spray paint.
I spray paint my shotgun pink. That's kind of hard. There's no spray paint. This is back in the day. This is the early 1800s. Hey, Adam. When was spray painting? There's no spray paint. In the 80s. Adam. When I dip it in pink berries. Whatever, dude. It's pink. Yeah, there you go. You got it with the- Pink berry wasn't invited. You're going to want the moccasin, dude. You're going to want that. You're going to want that guy on your team because he's-
Quiet. And can I be the knife guy? Or is there any use for a knife guy? Well, sure. I want the moccasin. I want to be the moccasin guy. But, hey, we're not going to be. We don't all have to dress the same. This is cultural appropriation. And in my gang, we don't do this. Okay? Oh, that's cool. We don't culturally appropriate. So you shoot women and children, but you draw the line at moccasins. Oh, wow. You took a woke stance. Hey, this is a woke podcast now, Kyle. You missed out. Dara sort of converted us the other week. What?
Chill. I'm chill with that. All gravy, baby. Woke is important. We're going to have a Native American and he's going to be one of the most badass motherfuckers. I mean, he's scalping people. What the? That seems... Yeah, we're like, oh, hey, Jeff. That's not what they do. Yeah, we're like, Jeff. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because that's what we call him because he has a...
little yellow feather or whatever his Indian name is. But it doesn't roll off the tongue. It doesn't roll off the tongue. And we're woke now? Yeah, it doesn't roll off the tongue. So we just call him Jeff. Okay.
There's the 1800s. Okay, well, that's cool. I'm not calling you Yellow Feather. Bitch, you are Jeff. Because if you're in the middle of a shootout... A scene? You were going to say a scene. Well, it's all a movie. Adam didn't tell you. No, while this is happening, he's having a guy write out everything. Like, who's taking...
everything down. So it could then be a play later on. A play. A play, then a movie. It's an epic story. Yeah, well, because movies are just on the rise, probably starting to invent film. No, you don't know when anything happened, do you?
1901? All I know is the Great Fire in Jacksonville, Florida, but you guys dogged on me for that. Well, by the way, I'm saying the mid-late 1800s into the early 1900s. Do they have video cameras? The moving picture. Yeah, when did that start? What is that, 1908? It's like the turn of the century. I think the science was being developed around 1900. Yeah, I'm saying maybe you're the first person that they're kind of following around and taking pictures of. Oh, a little doc.
We got a little doc going on. Ooh, the footy. Okay, that's cool. I'm into that. And it's a shootout, but they're like, don't move. Because if you move, it's going to be way too blurry. Please be very still. Hold it. Hold it. Hold it. Kyle's under that curtain thing. He's just fucking cranking the cameras. They say the only thing more deadly than Divine's gun is Kyle's camera.
Right? That's kind of cool. Yeah, that's good. And then maybe I'm there to rewrite. I don't know. Maybe that's my job. Dude, yeah. Whatever. As long as I have a pink shotgun, I'm hyped, dude. Adam's the one bank robber. Blake's there thinking he's part of it. I'm the one bank robber who's trying to take it really serious, who's just like, guys, no! I'm the one that wears the white hat. I have the pink shotgun. He's being a sissy bitch about it. That's how he sounds. Yeah, he...
Kyle's trying to film us even though cameras don't exist. And yours doesn't want to do any part of it because he, in this time period, hate to say it, little bit of a yellowbell. Yellowbell, yeah. But to prove us that he's not scared, he's going to go off to Niagara Falls next week. And what does yellowbelly mean? It means you pee all over yourself. But why does it, yeah, what does it come from? It is, it's pee-pee?
Like you wet your pants? I'm afraid to look that one up. But my dick is below my belly and pee-pee does not go up. No, but like you, your pee's so hard it goes up. I think you're right. It's got to be pee. Maybe it's a snake when you flip it over. Or a lizard or some kind of a lizard. Yeah. Well, I don't see the definition as a cowardly person. Yeah.
Right, but where does it come from? Entomology. Yeah. Excuse me? Entomology. Is that a coffee cake? Yellow belly. And by the way, the use over time, it actually...
In the 1950s, it peaked. It was really used a lot in the 1950s. So this wasn't even a phrase the time that I'm talking about. Well, you could say that it peaked in the 50s because they put it in Western movies, which peaked in the 50s. Okay. So why don't you peek behind the curtain?
So nobody knows what they're talking about today. I like that. Are you talking about the phrase peaked in the 50s? The phrase. Adam knows he wants to rob banks. That's what he knows. Here's what it is. It's so weird to me. You're telling me that you've never... Hold that. Okay. Thought about robbing... I don't have these fantasies. Although... Kyle, you have the floor. Go ahead, Kyle. Okay. I'll wait. Well, I just want to say one thing. I kind of now want to handwrite...
I'm robbing this bank. Do not hit the button and give me $5,000. No button. And kind of give it to Adam to just keep in his wallet. Okay. Just to have. Yeah. Cause I feel like the next time you go to a bank, which is never, uh,
It'll give you a little charge to be like, I could do it right now. If they knew what I had in my little butt pocket here. I wonder if you gave it, if you just were at a car wash and you gave it to the car wash guy, what he would do? Give me everything on the register. You get shot. You get shot, Adam. Yeah, you can't. If you're saying you're robbing. If it says I'm robbing this bank. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. You're getting a gun pulled on you. Hey, but guess what?
I pull one back, dude, and let's see who's fastest. Let's see who's fastest. Oh, my God, dude. At the car wash? This innocent guy's just washing cars, and now it's a shootout? At the car wash. Hey, but he pulled a gun. You're brutal. He could have just given me the bank. But you gave him a note that said, give me the money or I'm going to kill you. I didn't say, it doesn't say kill. I'm robbing this bank. It says I'm robbing this bank. You started that shit. You started that shit, which is fucking...
You like starting shit. That's your thing. I do. And guess what? I also like ending it, dude. Oh, my God. I wrote that line for him. Okay. I have the entomology of yellow belly.
If you guys want to know where yellow belly comes from. Yes. Are you ready? Yes, Kyle, we do. Yes. Okay. Oh, my God. Well, we might as well learn something. We might as well learn something. So here we go. The word originally applied to birds that literally have a yellow belly.
Like the yellow-bellied sapsucker. From there, it came to mean an insult for cowards. If you're afraid to ask someone on a date, you're yellow-bellied. If you're easily frightened, you're yellow-bellied. I do not understand that correlation at all because like
you because birds scare easy i guess so because they're very like i'm gonna fly here at the sound the first sound of something yeah so there's they seem frightened i guess that is the thought process of a bird i'm gonna fly here did you guys hear that i'm gonna fly here that doesn't seem like a very uh i don't adhesive definition no if i believe that what do you mean you don't believe it
You don't believe that? Yellow Belly is a... Kyle, do you believe everything you read? I think he pees up on his stomach. I like that. I like that much better.
Yeah, you pee on your stomach at any sort of scary thing. Yellow belly. What's the origin of yellow belly lily livered? What the fuck is a lily livered? Have you guys heard that one? I think that means you can't handle your booze. So Outlaw Life, Durs, Outlaw Life, there's not one part of you that has ever watched a gangster movie or any kind of Western or anything where you were like, that's tight. I mean, obviously...
I'm not doing that. I know one movie he likes. I'm not actually robbing the banks. But you never thought about just being like, yeah, fuck. No. Durs, you're trying to tell me you watched the movie A Cowboy Away and you weren't a little bit into maybe becoming a cowboy? I can shorten that sentence to you never watched Cowboy Away. I've never seen that movie. I don't even know who's in that. What? Well, that's okay, though. I think it's Woody Harrelson.
Yeah. Ernie Hudson? Yeah, it's fucking great. I also don't really know a couple. What? Dude, it's a classic. I know Carlito's way, and I never wanted to be Carlito. You never watched Goodfellas or actually... Zero. Or Tombstone. What about Tombstone? Well, Tombstone is kind of like the opposite. Tombstone is the law. The good guys. Which I...
personally love. I think that's better, but then you just feel like a narc. Yeah, but then the law, they're also kind of like, dude. Well, it's confusing. They're also like sort of bad guys. I can't believe you haven't seen a cowboy way. The cowboy way. The posters, these dudes are on horses in New York City. They look like you. By the way, 59% on Rotten Tomato. Pretty good score. Worth a watch. But the answer, Adam, yeah, I've never been like,
I don't know. I don't, it's not, it doesn't like do it for me.
What does it do for you? It's a rush, right? The thought of it is a rush. That's what it boils down to. But what I'm saying is, why is it a rush for you? It's exciting. Why is it exciting? Well, obviously, it's a ton of adrenaline. You're going in there. You might get in a shootout. You might get murdered. Yeah. But why do you want that adrenaline? Because it's awesome. Why do you want adrenaline that way? Well, so is the sports movie, which is a totally...
like non you don't have to murder anybody yeah but i'm i'm good at i think i'd be really good at murder wild thing to say bro i think i would be i am a good shot i think i'm a really good shot like you want you want to be a gangster you think that's cool i think i have a steady hand yeah you could be a surgeon in tough situations you could be dr giggles
I think, uh, yeah, I could join my great great uncle and be in the Jesse James game. Right. So that's what's, that's what's happening right now is you, you're feeling like you've had family that has gone down this, this might be in your DNA. Yeah. That's what you're thinking. So you're accepting it. He was murdered. He was murdered.
In the heat of a robbery or what? In the heat of a robbery, yeah. He was murdered outside of a bank. He might have been. I think we talked about this on the podcast before, like episode 12 or something. But he might have been kind of the bitch of the crew because he was just like, look out. I think you put the bitches on lookout. You're like, all the tough guys go inside. I don't know if that's...
He might have been the smartest one who's like, as soon as she hits the fan, I'm out of here. That's what I was going to say when you were running the scenario. I'm like, I'll be lookout. I'll be with the horses. You know what I mean? I'll be chilling, making sure they're quiet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yellow belly stuff. But that's not that much. The belly is pretty yellow. Yeah, I get that. Yellow belly, lily. I would like to do that, but I have to go inside so everybody sees my pink shotgun. I need people to see it.
Just tucked in your pink boots. Yeah, nobody's going to see it if I'm out by the horse. Come on now.
Hold your horses. How'd you get it pink again? You did it with berries? Yeah, I dipped it in berries. I dipped it in like berry juice. Well, see, what Dirk's understanding, he's just thinking about the murders. I haven't tried it. It's the Wild West, though, so murders are constantly happening. But you live, there's a code. Life expectancy is so low at that point. Yeah, there's a code. Yeah, well, what do you think the life expectancy is in like the late 1800s? Well, if you're in Jacksonville, not very long because there's a really big fire in 1901.
And what's your motive for robbing banks? Money. It's just money. You just want money? Well, no. Adam wants to go on tour. Yeah, I want to take it on tour. Yeah. Oh, right. You're doing... And that's what this guy did? I guess I just don't think they're cool. I think that they're losers. That's so sick. That's the sickest thing Durz has ever said. Okay. I think that they're fringe. They couldn't figure it out for themselves. So then they had to pull out a gun and kill people. And I'm like...
I think you're a loser. Yeah, but that's not fun. You want to know what's cool? The guy who invented candy canes. Now that's cool. Also, 1900. 1902. You just slip the candy cane right in the barrel of the gun and go, you know. I think this is cool. The Candyman can. Boom. Willy Wonka. Yeah, I don't know. I feel like it's people who couldn't hack it who got frustrated and they're like, oh.
I'm going to rob a bank then. Well, I bet you are because you have a gun in my face because you're a loser. So, Durr, you're a white herb. It is definitely. Yeah. It's the easiest way to make money back then. No, he's not a white herb because he's also not going to be a police officer. Right. Yeah, he's not going to. Right. I don't know. It seems like he has the mind for a police officer. I'll be a police officer before I'll be a bank robber who kills people. Okay. You heard it here first. I like that. Yeah, I'm a narc, dude.
I'm going to be your Huckleberry. I mean, Blue Line, what do they call it? Blue Line Love? What is it called? I don't know. What is this? Blue Lives Matter. Blue Line Love. Blue Line Love. And on that, that's another episode.
Any take backs, any apologies, any epic slams? 200. Shout out to Kyle Newacek for coming back. I'm here. I think we did 80 episodes without you. Jesus Christ. Really? It was good. Something like that. And it's really good to have you back. It's fine. It's fine. Yeah. I don't know. I feel like.
It feels a little crowded. I feel like three people, it's a little easier and it flows a little better. Noted. It's fine to have you back, Kyle. It's good to see you. Noted. My friend, Kyle, it's good to see you. As a podcast co-host, pretty indifferent. But to see you as my friend, I love that. Okay, well, I'll take that.
I'll take that. Thank you. Thank you. I don't love how you kind of replaced the soundboard today. The soundboard. Blake's really slept through this last podcast. Almost non-existent. He's just in awe. Dude, it was everywhere. Maybe I'm not plugged in. Oh, really? It was everywhere. I didn't hear it. You haven't heard it at all? Hit us with one. Hit it right now. You didn't just hear I'm your friend? No. Oh, boy. Did you not plug in the soundboard? Oh, no, man. Nobody told me I've been playing sounds the whole freaking time.
The last sound I heard was like friendship, like in the first like two minutes. What the hell? I didn't switch anything. Dang, that's sad. I was really hitting the board hella well today. That's too bad. Oh,
You're lucky Adam doesn't come in and shoot you, dude. That's really sad. The fact that my bank robbing fantasies turned on me and suddenly I'm a bad guy. I think a lot of people go into banks and imagining not murder, but imagining how to
Robbed that bank. The heist. We've all seen Heat, though. We know what happened. And Adam, I think Adam's going to find a lot of support out there from droves of losers. Yeah.
Who also are chasing this high that they just can't... They can't manufacture themselves in their own lives, so they have to put other people's lives at risk. But, Jers, I have manufactured myself. I'm living a very good life. That's what's so interesting is that you still think... I'm living a very good life. Yeah, but why do you need to subject other people? I just don't understand. I don't understand it. I don't have to. It's a fantasy. I'm not doing everything in my fantasy. But what are you getting out of the fantasy? Like...
Just cool imagination. My imagination's running wild. Dude, I need to quit that. And the idea of living in the 1800s. We really didn't get to the bottom of you subjecting other people, you having to dominate people for a rush. I guess I just don't get a rush out of that. I'm living in a nightmare. I hate this version of Ders. Yeah.
Dude, I love this version of Durs. Are you guys hearing my drops now? Yeah. Very shagadelic. Worst. Yeah, got him. Can that be your take back? That you have a fucking brain? No, well, I will say that I do think the board was dropping. You will hear it when you listen back to the episode. It's just you guys didn't hear it on the Zoom. With the...
With that said, happy 200th episode, everybody. Kyle, happy 100th. I'm chunking now? It's good to see you, Kyle. Welcome back. 140. I'm here with you guys. 140. Happy 200th.
